| Gourlis | Megadrive, problems with ATI graphic card that's why. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| ubugtu | could anyone please tell me why my cursor is s l o w and hurkey-jerkey on full screen games? | 00:00 |
| Megadrive | Ah, | 00:00 |
| Megadrive | Nvidia card here :\ | 00:00 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, this what I get : http://pastebin.com/m252b92cd | 00:00 |
| Gourlis | yeh | 00:00 |
| sweetde | sebsebseb: alright, thx a lot, im on my way then. | 00:00 |
| Gourlis | ATI isn't supported yet on 9.04 ;o | 00:00 |
| th0r | Yanick_: give me a sec to take a look | 00:00 |
| Gourlis | So I'll stay with LTS Releases | 00:00 |
| Rohaq | I want to run a cronjob at 2am every day, and shutdown unless it's stopped by myself, can anyone suggest how to do this? | 00:00 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, thanks | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | sweetde: no problem | 00:00 |
| burner | seriosly... why are two linux servers that were running hardy full? | 00:00 |
| funkyHat | snell: seriously, you need to upgrade from Gutsy | 00:01 |
| sebsebseb | sweetde: and Virtualbox is better than the free as in price VMware versiosn | 00:01 |
| sebsebseb | versions | 00:01 |
| proq | true, virtualbox is a great enterprise-grade vm from what I can tell | 00:01 |
| ubugtu | how do i downgrade back to hardy? | 00:01 |
| funkyHat | Gourlis: which ATi card do you have? | 00:01 |
| sebsebseb | !downgrade | ubutgtu | 00:01 |
| ubottu | ubutgtu: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 00:01 |
| th0r | Yanick_: ok....looks like the drive is mounting ok as sdb. type control-c in the terminal to stop the tail command. Then type 'mount' and see if sdb is already mounted | 00:02 |
| snell | funkyhat, im only using it because i have ardour setup to work on it and it has all my song files. ive already got hardy on another drive | 00:02 |
| sebsebseb | ubugtu: from which version? 8.10 or 9.04? | 00:02 |
| neoTheCat | hello. i am running vbox 2.2.2 on Ubuntu 9.04. i am trying to install Ubunutu 9.04 server as a guest, but it just stalls at "Installing at 74% - Configuring man-db" screen | 00:02 |
| neoTheCat | as anyone had this problem | 00:02 |
| sebsebseb | ubugtu: and why? | 00:02 |
| sebsebseb | neoTheCat: you can ask in #vbox | 00:02 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, no | 00:02 |
| proq | does anyone know of a good package to create an image (like an iso, but a tarball or other file type will work) from an ubuntu system using as little space as possible for the resulting file? | 00:02 |
| Gourlis | funkyHat, ATI Radeon RS490M X1200 | 00:02 |
| Gourlis | on 8.04 now am perfect | 00:03 |
| neoTheCat | i did. i just did not know if this was an ubuntu issue someone has seen. | 00:03 |
| ubugtu | sebsebseb: 9.04. because it doesnt support bluetooth headsets and because it doesnt allow me to press F2 and get a run dialog box. | 00:03 |
| burner | proq: 7zip? | 00:03 |
| th0r | Yanick_: this is an ntfs drive? | 00:03 |
| funkyHat | snell: if you upgrade ardour should still work fine, and Ubuntu 7.10 is not getting any security updates anymore | 00:03 |
| chuck_ | DGMurdockIII, http://paste.ubuntu.com/176011/ here is my entry from /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:03 |
| sebsebseb | ubugtu: why not install 8.10 instead then? it has just under a year of support, and 9.10 is out in October with 10.4 in April the next LTS | 00:03 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, yes | 00:03 |
| sebsebseb | ubugtu: 8.04 being the current LTS | 00:04 |
| rabidweezle | gah I swear that linux is the only stable 64 bit os, which is great for linux, but I can't get anything else to run stable at all.... | 00:04 |
| funkyHat | Gourlis: I have an X1650 and it works fine in Jaunty. I'd suggest trying out the live CD to see if your card works fine. But then if you're happy with 8.04 then that's fine, :) | 00:04 |
| Name141 | Hello, I am having issues with e1000e module. I used rmmodule e1000e, and then modprobe e1000. Then I do /etc/init.d/networking restart , and it says it restarted everything. yet I don't have a connect. So I did "ifconfig eth0 up" , yet it claims there is no eth0. | 00:04 |
| th0r | Yanick_: ok. Do you have a mount point already set up for the drive? maybe /media/sdb1 or some such? | 00:04 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | Does closing windows while in compiz's "scale mode" crash compiz? can someone confirm this? | 00:04 |
| Name141 | Is it possible for me to make it use the e1000 on restart, and how do I get it to work properly for my NIC ? | 00:04 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, no, it used to mount automatically | 00:04 |
| funkyHat | snell: funny, I was trying to get ardour working earlier today actually | 00:04 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, into /media/MEDIA | 00:04 |
| sebsebseb | ubugtu: makes a lot of sense to do 8.10 in your case, and then go 9.10 or 10.04 or well both. remember you would have to upgrade through 9.04 first | 00:04 |
| th0r | Yanick_: are you using gnome | 00:04 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, yes | 00:04 |
| Gourlis | funkyHat, I had 9.04, I don't have any objection with 9.04 but I messed up things with graphics drivers etc.. so I did a fresh install today back to LTS. | 00:04 |
| Ampelbein | Name141: can you pastebin the output of dmesg after loading of the module? | 00:05 |
| Gourlis | :) | 00:05 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | Does closing _gedit_* windows while in compiz's "scale mode" crash compiz? can someone confirm this? *** | 00:05 |
| unko | can someone help me with Songbird? it won't load up when i try to open it... | 00:05 |
| Ampelbein | !paste | Name141 | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: to the LTS hummm | 00:05 |
| ubottu | Name141: 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) | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: see above what I said regarding 8.10 and that | 00:05 |
| Name141 | Ampelbein: absolutly not. As I can not run the OS if there is no NIC lol | 00:05 |
| snell | funkyhat my ardour files front my gutsy installation dont play on hardy for some reason. are you saying i should just give up on it tho? | 00:05 |
| chuck_ | DGMurdockIII, you need to change the identifier to yoour card | 00:05 |
| th0r | Yanick_: in the terminal type 'ps ax | grep gvfs' | 00:05 |
| DGMurdockIII | ok | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: 8.04 seems to old now, I would run at least 8.10 | 00:05 |
| th0r | Yanick_: you should see a line that ends with /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd | 00:05 |
| snell | funkyhat it seems like i just need to reset my monitor settings, or have it redetect what monitor my laptop is using | 00:06 |
| Ampelbein | Name141: well, without the output of dmesg this is kinda hard to debug ;-) | 00:06 |
| === mike is now known as MGrunde | ||
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: 9.04 isn't that good really, and 8.10 was good, so yeah at least 8.10 | 00:06 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, yes | 00:06 |
| Name141 | Ampelbein: however, the e1000e module makes my NIC twinkle at the router, and never gets a connect from the modem directly either. But I rmmod e1000e, and modprob e1000 , and it stops twinkling like a moron, yet it doesn't bring up a connection. | 00:06 |
| Gigantic | Hola | 00:06 |
| Noob541 | hi | 00:06 |
| funkyHat | snell: we've already reset your monitor settings. Something else you could try perhaps is uninstalling fglrx (don't know if you had that installed or not) | 00:06 |
| Gourlis | sebsebseb, nevermind dude - I do my job right? yeeahh :P I'm LTS lover hahaha ;) | 00:06 |
| th0r | Yanick_: have you tried to mount it manually? | 00:06 |
| Gigantic | what's the diff between the desktop and server versions? anywhere a list? | 00:07 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, yes | 00:07 |
| Name141 | Ampelbein: this didn't happen in hardy, it started in Intrepid and now same in Jaunty | 00:07 |
| funkyHat | Gigantic: different kernel, no desktop installed by default | 00:07 |
| MGrunde | Where are the X config files are now that xorg.conf is not really used? I want to see what video driver I'm using and possibly change it. | 00:07 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, but I'm not sure if I got the syntax alright, I don't do that everyday | 00:07 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: LTS is for newbies, servers, or business's that are slow when it comes to upgrading stuff | 00:07 |
| Gigantic | funkyHat: stable versio I guess... that's it? | 00:07 |
| Gourlis | sebsebseb, I'm a newbie too. :D | 00:07 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, I did "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/MEDIA" but it says it cannot access /dev/sdb1 or something | 00:07 |
| Name141 | sebsebseb: LTS is for people that want a working OS as of now. | 00:07 |
| Name141 | for me | 00:08 |
| mobi-sheep | ubugtu: Do your machine support bluetooth? | 00:08 |
| th0r | Yanick_: ok. First, you need an empty dir to mount to. in the terminal type 'sudo mkdir /media/test' | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: ,but I meant the really computer ignorant newbies maybe, or newbies with really old hardware | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | Name141: 8.10 is a working OS :) | 00:08 |
| Gigantic | and what's the help bot in here? | 00:08 |
| Name141 | sebsebseb: about like Win95 | 00:08 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, | 00:08 |
| Yanick_ | k | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | Name141: nonsense | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | !ubottu | Gigantic | 00:08 |
| ubottu | Gigantic: Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots | 00:08 |
| funkyHat | Gigantic: yes, the rest of the system is the same. There's no need for a desktop environment on a server so it's not installed, and the kernel is optimised more for typical server usage than desktop usage. You can actually install the server kernel on a desktop install if you want to (or vice versa) | 00:09 |
| Ampelbein | Name141: can you see anything unsual in the dmesg output after loading the module? | 00:09 |
| sebsebseb | Name141: first of all Ubuntu and Windows 95 are two completly differnet OS's | 00:09 |
| Gigantic | sebsebseb: danke | 00:09 |
| Gourlis | sebsebseb, dunno mate.. I don't wanna go far with next releases because I don't want to lose my graphic drivers again as it happened with 9.04 | 00:09 |
| th0r | Yanick_: then type 'mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/test' (you were close) | 00:09 |
| yoyit2 | amarok iphone /mnt/ipod/iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesLock how do i removethis? | 00:09 |
| snell | funkyhat what about sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg? | 00:09 |
| Name141 | Ampelbein: I guess I should go try this again, and use dmesg shortly after? | 00:09 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: did you do 8.10? | 00:09 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: I would suggest upgrading your 8.04 to 8.10 and running that untill 9.10 or 10.04 | 00:09 |
| Gigantic | funkyHat: all rite ty... I know what you talking about, just new to the distro | 00:10 |
| funkyHat | snell: can't hurt | 00:10 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: unless you want KDE3 from the repo in Ubuntu :) | 00:10 |
| Name141 | sebsebseb: not if they both don't work for your hardware | 00:10 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, I needed to add sudo before, and the result is.... ntfs-3g: Failed to access volume '/dev/sdb1': No such file or directory | 00:10 |
| === matiu is now known as Guest47930 | ||
| sm0k3d | I just wanted to say that this is the greatest distro off all time guys, and I want to express my profound and deep gratitute to all of you, who are the makers of gentoo linux. Thank You :) | 00:10 |
| Gourlis | sebsebseb, :D I won't do anything tonight *tomorrow* :P tonight am tired of reading psychology stupid exam for tomorrow | 00:11 |
| sebsebseb | Name141: your obviosuly a newbie, and don't reolize that not all hardware will just work, because of hardware manufactures that do not release specifications, and make the hardware only for Windows | 00:11 |
| Ampelbein | Name141: right, just type dmesg after modprobe the module. you could compare the output before modprobing and after to only see what is new and write this info on a sheet of paper, then typing it to pastebin ;-) | 00:11 |
| Name141 | Ampelbein: OK. | 00:11 |
| Gigantic | 1 more Q... I guess there is no diff between Ubu/Kubuntu but for the desktop installed by default righ... | 00:11 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: 10.04 is the next LTS | 00:11 |
| th0r | Yanick_: the lines you put in pastebin. They did show up after you plugged in the drive, right? | 00:11 |
| Yanick_ | yes. I didn't remove the plug since | 00:11 |
| Gigantic | no diff installer or versions of other stuff | 00:12 |
| yoyit2 | daniel@daniel-u9:~$ sudo chmod 777 /mnt/ipod | 00:12 |
| yoyit2 | access denied?????? | 00:12 |
| Ampelbein | Gigantic: correct. | 00:12 |
| chuck_ | Gigantic, thats right | 00:12 |
| Gigantic | aye | 00:12 |
| Name141 | Ampelbein: Speaking of this, would finding a way to put Ubuntu on a flash drive be faster than the live CD/DVD disks ? | 00:12 |
| Gigantic | ty see ya | 00:12 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: about the only true advantage 8.04 on the desktop has over 8.10 on the desktop, these days, is that KDE3 is in the repo :) | 00:12 |
| Gourlis | sebsebseb, as I see 8.04 LTS. Versions which comes out after it are in beta actually until next LTS comes out. | 00:12 |
| buakeka | Anyone know the best program to backup my system as an image? | 00:12 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: no | 00:12 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: not at all | 00:12 |
| Ampelbein | Name141: defnitely is faster ( when using usb2.0) | 00:12 |
| sm0k3d | i mean, how did you guys develop this elite flavour of linux? | 00:13 |
| Name141 | Ampelbein: OK. And I assume I can install, rather than just have it run LIVE? | 00:13 |
| sm0k3d | and why the name gentoo ? | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: and before a 180 months supported distro even comes out as a stable, it has gone through many development versions. let's take 9.04 for example. 6 alpha's, 1 or 2 betas, a release candidate or 2, and then the final | 00:13 |
| Ampelbein | !backup | buakeka | 00:13 |
| ubottu | buakeka: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: 18 months above | 00:13 |
| sm0k3d | hmm, did you guys change the name ? | 00:13 |
| Gourlis | hmmm | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: or how about 9.10 | 00:13 |
| Ampelbein | Name141: you can use a persistent flash disk | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | !9.10 | Gourlis | 00:13 |
| ubottu | Gourlis: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 00:13 |
| jrib | sm0k3d: "the name"? of what? | 00:13 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, if I list all files in /dev, I can't see sdb* ? | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: oh the bot does not have a schedulded link | 00:14 |
| Ampelbein | !usb | Name141 | 00:14 |

| sm0k3d | jrib, see my previous posts | 00:14 |

| sebsebseb | Gourlis: release schedulded | 00:14 |
| Third3ye2 | Argh! | 00:14 |
| jrib | sm0k3d: i read one line at a time... | 00:14 |
| Third3ye2 | Windows and network services >.< | 00:14 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: by the way if Microsoft did software like opensource/freesoftware Windows 7 beta would really be the alpha, and the Windows 7 release candidate would really be the beta | 00:14 |
| Gourlis | sebsebseb, thank you for your time and all the info mate. I really appreciate that. :-) | 00:14 |
| Third3ye2 | funkyHat: I tried sharing network connections using this old USB-WLAN dongle I found | 00:15 |

| Gourlis | I dont | 00:15 |
| lupine_85 | hi - I'm mounting an nfs share on jaunty and the permissions are broken. anyone have a clue what's going on? | 00:15 |
| Third3ye2 | And XP gives me this crap about "Adress Conflicts" and whatnot | 00:15 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: take Firefox for example, quite a few alphas, and then the betas, and rc's and then final yeah, well you get the idea now I think | 00:15 |
| Gourlis | yeah | 00:15 |
| sebsebseb | Gourlis: commerical software they rush out new versions, opensource/freesoftware goes through loads of testing before a final | 00:15 |
| Name141 | Ampelbein: Alright, I'll check it out once I get the flash drive. | 00:15 |
| th0r | Yanick_: I just plugged mine in to check, and it looks like it should be there. Did you actually see those lines appear in /var/log/messages AFTER you plugged in the drive or were they there when you first looked? | 00:15 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, is it normal if I don't have any /dev/sdb1 file? | 00:16 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, yes | 00:16 |
| th0r | Yanick_: no, you should have both /dev/sdb and /dev/sdb1 | 00:16 |
| Yanick_ | th0r, well, they're not there | 00:16 |

| funkyHat | Third3ye2: not really sure what else to suggest :(. it might be possible to host a mirror on the XP machine to install from, that might be too much hassle to be worth it though | 00:17 |
| burner | mzz: how do I fix that? | 00:17 |
| moz44 | Ampelbein: so that it can download my podcasts | 00:17 |
| mzz | burner: this is not a bug. Recommend you free up some space. | 00:17 |
| giles | funkyhat, i can boot into jaunty now from the super grub disk so in jaunty i removed grub-gfxboot, installed grub from the repos, ran root hd(0,4) setup (hd0) and it all worked great, but i still get a grub error stage 1.5 when i boot | 00:17 |

| droid7 | ds_, I meant type the application name you're looking for in terminal just to see if exists | 00:35 |
| lstarnes | Gourlis: why did you ask that? | 00:35 |
| ds_ | it is catalyst control center | 00:35 |

| Valkyrie | i need a bit of help.. | 00:43 |
| funkyHat | !ask > Valkyrie | 00:43 |
| ubottu | Valkyrie, please see my private message | 00:43 |
| kamil_ | elo | 00:43 |
| ds_ | anybody who has Catalyst Control Center, PLEASE tell me how to run it | 00:43 |
| aleron6 | anybody use wmv format files here | 00:44 |

| jonatan | sziasztok van valaki magyar itt? | 00:44 |
| sebsebseb | aleron6: sometimes | 00:44 |
| aleron6 | how did yu do that | 00:44 |
| Gnea | mainstone: you got it | 00:44 |
| aleron6 | did yu use a codec | 00:44 |
| lstarnes | !hu | jonatan | 00:44 |
| ubottu | jonatan: Magyar nyelvű segítséget az #ubuntu-hu csatornán talál | 00:44 |
| Guest93179 | eeeeeeeeeeee | 00:44 |
| ryanakca | How do I set the default page / paper size for a printer (CUPS)? | 00:44 |
| sebsebseb | aleron6: yes | 00:44 |
| aleron6 | what codec | 00:44 |
| Guest93179 | ludzie | 00:44 |
| funkyHat | ds_: try this: dpkg -L fglrx-amdcccle | grep bin | 00:44 |
| Valkyrie | well... i got 64bit ubuntu and synaptics flash (in the restriced extras) and flash works..but there is one problem.. i cant seem to see this live video feed of chris pirrilo... its all grey | 00:44 |
| sebsebseb | aleron6: not exactly sure, but if you try to open them in a player, then it will usually ask if you want to install the codec. also you can run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras to take care of stuff like that | 00:45 |
| funkyHat | ds_: that will give you a list of files that are part of the fglrx-amdcccle package which have "bin" somewhere in their path. One of those will probably be the one you need to run | 00:45 |
| sterilegenie | im using brasero to burn a videots file to dvd but my home dvd player refuses to play it. In windows this works perectly. Am I missing a plugin or something? | 00:45 |
| ds_ | Package `fglrx-amdcccle' is not installed. | 00:45 |
| chuck_ | ds_, amdcccle don't thank me thank google | 00:45 |
| ds_ | hmm, maybe it got uninstalled somehow | 00:45 |
| funkyHat | ds_: perhaps you need to install it then... | 00:46 |
| Valkyrie | sebsebseb: i have installed the restriced extras | 00:46 |
| ds_ | ill apt-get it again | 00:46 |
| MGrunde_ | Okay, this is really strange. I just installed Jaunty and my monitor doesn't seem to be properly detected, the max resolution was 800x600, when it should be 1280x1024. So I was messing around with xorg.conf, had to start in safe-graphics mode, and when I opened display settings, all of the resolutions were detected and everything's working. | 00:46 |
| Gnea | !bluetooth | 00:46 |
| ubottu | For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 00:46 |
| Valkyrie | sorry... im kinda a newb to linux i only got it 2 days ago... | 00:46 |
| MGrunde_ | The problem is, I can't seem to get this to happen when I'm not in safe graphics mode | 00:46 |
| UntouchableMX | sorry for being rude, I check the link about the wireless card, and mine isnt supported, but I hace the driver, but it dosent get installed, and I used one of the other programs that lets you use a windows driver and I only get 16% strength on all signals, and I can get connected to one but it wont open nothing | 00:47 |
| UntouchableMX | Its a rtl8187 | 00:47 |

| pc__ | ok | 00:48 |
| mainstone | Gnea: Right so it has to be typed each time... ok. Thanks. With virtualbox can you boot a system which is already on a partition? I already boot Vista, XP and Linux Mint on 2 hard drives but dont know if i can run the current instalation on the virtual box? | 00:48 |
| Valkyrie | any ideas as to why i cant see the video feed? | 00:48 |
| Ampelbein | MGrunde: got the shirt? (just kidding) | 00:48 |
| Ampelbein | MGrunde: can you pastebin /var/log/xorg.0.log after X started with 800X600? | 00:48 |
| Roasted | Has anybody tried 9.10 yet? | 00:48 |
| ds_ | another question: how come my sound only works from about 75%-100% volume? I can still turn it up and down but it 0% is where 75% should be | 00:48 |
| Valkyrie | nope.. im on 9.04 | 00:48 |

| Roasted | yeah | 00:49 |
| Gnea | mainstone: I've never tried it, used to try it with vmware but it turned out to be a bad idea, so I just make a virtual disk | 00:49 |
| Roasted | I'm well aware | 00:49 |
| Roasted | thanks | 00:49 |
| Roasted | has anybody used 9.10 yet? | 00:49 |

| Roasted | maaaaaan | 00:49 |

| Gnea | sebsebseb: what? we support jaunty here | 00:50 |
| MGrunde_ | Ampelbein, Yes, I'll need to restart then. Back shortly | 00:50 |
| sebsebseb | Gnea: he is asking about 9.10 | 00:50 |
| Roasted | gnea - I'm questioning karmic | 00:50 |
| Gnea | methods: sure | 00:50 |
| UntouchableMX | has any one have had experience makin work a wireless nic,to be specific rtl8187 | 00:50 |
| Roasted | gnea - but evidently I'm off topic :( | 00:50 |
| mobi-sheep | methods: I think Gnea forget about you. :) | 00:50 |
| Roasted | UntouchableMX - I thought the RTL8187B was working in later versions of Ubuntu? | 00:50 |
| Gnea | sebsebseb: sorry, mis-read it as 9.04 | 00:50 |
| * Valkyrie dreams of becoming a linux technition after highschool | 00:50 | |
| sebsebseb | Gnea: ok no problem | 00:50 |
| UntouchableMX | mine is the regular rtl8187 | 00:50 |

| sebsebseb | Gnea: ah ok | 00:51 |
| UntouchableMX | yes | 00:51 |
| nightdrever | does anyone know how to get my graphics card working? | 00:51 |
| Valkyrie | im trying to convince my school to switch to linux/ubuntu... it would be amazing | 00:51 |
| sebsebseb | Valkyrie: indeed, but probably won't happen anytime soon if ever | 00:51 |
| Roasted | valkyrie - are you in tech support? | 00:51 |

| sebsebseb | it's not quite like that | 00:52 |
| Roasted | GASP | 00:52 |
| Roasted | evidently so | 00:52 |
| sebsebseb | ,but your annoying me a little bit | 00:52 |
| Seeker` | Roasted: stop now | 00:52 |
| UntouchableMX | and the bad thing that not even with the windows driver it dosent even work :( | 00:52 |
| nightdrever | no way to get a SIS graphics card working on linux? | 00:53 |
| nunyabiz | can someone please help me, i installed an app called ninan, but i can't login to it with my username and password, it says User/password incorrect | 00:53 |

| yowshi1 | is there any way to find out exact;ly which programme keeps bogging down my system by taxing my hard drives? | 00:53 |
| mobi-sheep | Please don't blog here. Do it at Wikipedia. Mkay? Thanks. :) | 00:53 |
| lstarnes | yowshi1: which version of ubuntu are you using? | 00:53 |
| Roasted | ANYWAY - Valkyrie - I work in tech support at a school district. I'd love to see an Ubuntu lab there... but I'm not too sure it'd be feasible. With the district being so allocated towards education, you need educational programs to aid that... and there's no denying there's more reading/math programs on Windows than Ubuntu, unfortunately. So I think we'll remain a Windows client network. :( | 00:53 |
| nightdrever | my graphics card isnt been recoignized by linux? | 00:53 |
| UntouchableMX | and theres not that many post about rtl8187 and ubuntu | 00:53 |
| Gnea | Roasted: get it figured out? | 00:53 |
| Roasted | Gnea - get what figured out? | 00:54 |
| yowshi1 | lstarnes: jaunty | 00:54 |
| Gnea | Roasted: the 9.10 thing | 00:54 |
| Roasted | UntouchableMX - I wasn't aware an RTL8187 existed, just the RTL8187B... do you know what the difference is? Woudln't the same Linux driver handle the same thing? | 00:54 |
| sebsebseb | Seeker`: see above | 00:54 |
| Roasted | Gnea - No. I can't talk about 9.10 here. So naturally I didn't figure out my problem. :( | 00:54 |
| nunyabiz | can anyone please help me, I'm having problems logging into ninan | 00:54 |
| Seeker` | Roasted: Take the chat somewhere else please | 00:54 |
| Gnea | Roasted: well, see, that's what the #ubuntu+1 channel is for - just join it :) | 00:54 |

| Roasted | Seeker - Actually I'm currently talking with somebody about helping htem with their wireless here. But hey, thanks for your input anyway. | 00:55 |
| yowshi1 | lstarnes: why what was it in 8.10 or 8.04? | 00:55 |
| UntouchableMX | well I have the disc and it has the linux driver, but it aint workin, it dosent install correctly | 00:55 |
| yowshi1 | is there any way to find out exact;ly which programme keeps bogging down my system by taxing my hard drives? | 00:55 |
| Ampelbein | nunyabiz: what is "ninan"? | 00:55 |
| Gnea | Roasted: no need to have such an attitude, you can always chat in 2 rooms at once, right? | 00:55 |
| Roasted | UntouchableMX - the driver wasn't automatically picked up when you installed Ubuntu? | 00:55 |
| lstarnes | yowshi1: I recall there being one major issue that was fixed | 00:55 |
| Roasted | Gnea - Yes. I know. I'm just being a smartazz cause I get sick of the nazi ways this channel is ran. | 00:55 |
| sebsebseb | Roasted: or three even or pm even for the off topic stuff | 00:56 |
| nunyabiz | ampelbein, an app that allows you to download binaries | 00:56 |
| Roasted | seb - no thx | 00:56 |
| Ampelbein | nunyabiz: there's no package by that name in ubuntu | 00:56 |
| yowshi1 | lstarnes: no this is a programme accessing the hard drive and it momenatarily freezes my system wjhen it does | 00:56 |
| sebsebseb | Seeker`: about time | 00:56 |
| chuck_ | Seeker`, ty | 00:56 |
| UntouchableMX | but the one it pick up, dosent work good, it shows all of the signals with 16% strenth, and I can get connected to a network put it wont open nothing | 00:56 |
| Gnea | !attitude | Roasted | 00:56 |
| ubottu | Roasted: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 00:56 |
| nunyabiz | ampelbein, deany told me about it | 00:57 |
| Roasted | Gnea - I got it. But hey, thanks! | 00:57 |
| MGrunde_ | Ampelbein, http://pastebin.com/d760563e6 | 00:57 |
| Roasted | UntouchableMX - Are you using network manager? | 00:57 |
| test | Hi | 00:57 |
| Roasted | hi | 00:57 |
| UntouchableMX | I dont think so, wich do you recommend | 00:58 |
| test | Help! Ubuntu/Gnome keeps freezing at sudden times lately, and all I can do is a cold reboot! | 00:58 |
| Roasted | UntouchableMX - My old laptop had the RTL8187B and if I recall I just used the default network manager and it worked... but granted that was 8187B, not 8187... I have no clue waht the difference would be. | 00:58 |
| sebsebseb | test: old computer? | 00:58 |
| UntouchableMX | well I use the default, the one on the system tray but like I tell you, it shows al the signals at 16% | 00:59 |
| UntouchableMX | and I haved use wifislax and it recognized it good | 00:59 |
| Roasted | UntouchableMX - How close are you to the access point? Have you tried the same location but in Windows? | 00:59 |
| nightdrever | ok my hardware drivers isnt detecting my video card....any suggestions? | 00:59 |
| test | sebsebseb: no, pretty new. Intel Q8200 etc, and I have updated all programs. | 00:59 |
| nightdrever | I have a SIS card | 00:59 |
| sebsebseb | test: Intel hummm that could be the issue, there are Intel graphics issues mentioned in the release notes, maybe that effects you | 01:00 |
| sebsebseb | !notes | 01:00 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) release notes can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes | 01:00 |
| UntouchableMX | well Im connected right now on windows using the card and its like 60% | 01:00 |
| Roasted | UntouchableMX - It could be that the driver for the RTL8187 that's coupled with Linux is just of poor quality that results in less of a signal range. | 01:01 |
| === Mau_Restor is now known as mau_restor | ||
| rogue780 | i need to install apache2, php modules, and mysql server....there used to be all the command line install stuff on ubuntuguide, but now it's no there anymore. I have ubuntu server installed (version 8.10) and i'm accessing it via putty | 01:01 |
| Ampelbein | MGrunde: your monitor seems to does not support edid, you have to set hsync and vsync in /etc/X11/xorg.conf manually. what kind of monitor is this? | 01:01 |
| nightdrever | ok noone know how to get my card to work?......so to get it to work i HAVE to revert back to windows ? :-( | 01:01 |
| UntouchableMX | but it does the same thing to all of the networks it detects | 01:01 |
| sebsebseb | !lamp | rogue780 | 01:01 |
| ubottu | rogue780: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 01:01 |
| tr-ip | does ubuntu only install from the live boot cd or is there another version with fresh install? | 01:01 |
| sebsebseb | nightdrever: I suggest trying Ubuntu forums | 01:01 |
| Roasted | The LiveCD can install and run it without installing too. | 01:01 |
| sebsebseb | nightdrever: sign up and do a thread about your card there | 01:01 |
| nightdrever | ive looked cant find away | 01:02 |
| test | sebsebseb: will check it out. But "graphic issues" ? It's more like that the whole desktop environment freezes, sometimes all but the mouse, and sometimes the windows looks like buggy old MS Windows-windows attacked by viruses. | 01:02 |
| === LFC|Doppp is now known as Doppp | ||
| sebsebseb | nightdrever: your on 9.04 now? 8.10 was ok? | 01:02 |
| tr-ip | Roasted: yeah but the live cd is the only way of installing it right by installing the live cd to the hard disk, and not a fresh install | 01:02 |
| nightdrever | i dont want to have to go back to crappy windows....i like ubuntu better | 01:02 |
| sebsebseb | nightdrever: try 8.04 even, since differnet xorgs | 01:02 |
| nightdrever | yes im on 9.04 | 01:02 |
| UntouchableMX | does it make a difference because its a usb card | 01:02 |
| MGrunde_ | Ampelbein, It's an LG L1770HQ. I tried using xrandr and adding a modeline, but when I try to change to it, it gives me an error. | 01:03 |
| sebsebseb | test: sounds like a possible failing hardware issue | 01:03 |
| Flannel | tr-ip: "with fresh install"? What do you mean? how would installation from the liveCD not be a fresh install? | 01:03 |
| nightdrever | i dont think it worked on 8.04 either | 01:03 |
| Ampelbein | MGrunde: you don't happen to specify what error? | 01:03 |
| Roasted | tr-ip - I think you might be confused. When you boot to the LiveCD, you can actually use Linux and test it out. If you click install icon on the desktop, it installs Linux on your computer.. on your actual hard drive. That's how I awlays install LInux. | 01:03 |
| MGrunde_ | Ampelbein, Also, just checked out the log from when I started in low graphics mode and the difference is that it's using Vesa, and for some reason the modes are discovered | 01:03 |
| tr-ip | Flannel: meaning it onoly installs the clone of the live cd to the hard disc? | 01:04 |
| MGrunde_ | Ampelbein, One second, I'll find out | 01:04 |
| === saulus_ is now known as SauLus | ||
| Flannel | tr-ip: That's correct. But that clone is a 'fresh install' as good as any other. | 01:04 |
| UntouchableMX | well looks like im going to try a nother distribution of linux | 01:04 |
| rogue780 | sebsebseb, thanks | 01:04 |
| Flannel | tr-ip: There's also the alternate CD, which installs everything via packages, but you'll end up with the same result. | 01:04 |
| === k is now known as Guest85234 | ||
| MGrunde_ | Ampelbein, Although, since edid doesn't seem to work, will gtf be able to properly generate a modeline? | 01:05 |
| sebsebseb | rogue780: no problem | 01:05 |
| test | sebsebseb: hope not. It has just started recently, and all seems fine in Windows. | 01:05 |
| tr-ip | Flannel: Whats the root password for the live cd? | 01:05 |
| UntouchableMX | later guys, and thanks for your help | 01:05 |
| === customer is now known as linuxman410 | ||
| Ampelbein | MGrunde: vesa uses more safe defaults that's why it works "better". | 01:05 |
| Flannel | tr-ip: there is no root password. Ubuntu doesn't use the root account, it's locked. | 01:05 |
| tr-ip | Flannel: so how u suppose to install stuff? | 01:06 |
| tyl3r | Hello. Running Jaunty with gnome on a dell studio xps16 with full hd 1920x1080....anyone has some good tips / links for font optimizing, especially in firefox ? | 01:06 |
| Gnea | !sudo | tr-ip | 01:06 |
| ubottu | tr-ip: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 01:06 |
| Flannel | tr-ip: Ubuntu uses sudo. | 01:06 |
| tyl3r | I know this is an issue for many people and I read and try a lot but for firefox I cannot come to a decent solution | 01:06 |
| Ampelbein | MGrunde: gtf should work anyway | 01:07 |
| tyl3r | system fonts are fine actually, but with full hd res, I cannot find any optimal font setting in firefox... | 01:07 |
| TheMoonMaster | tyl3r: I am on an XPS m1130 and going to system->preferences->appearance and then going to the fonts section, choosing details and editing the DPI helps me | 01:07 |
| TheMoonMaster | tyl3r: You install msttcorefonts? | 01:08 |
| tyl3r | TheMoonMaster: thx, how many dpi you have ? In general I would be happy with firefox looking fine on all pages....but for example ubuntuforums look great with one font, with the same font last.fm is ugly and overlaps etc...so hard to find a perfect solution | 01:08 |
| TheMoonMaster | I use 96 | 01:08 |
| tyl3r | TheMoonMaster: yes installed corefonts | 01:08 |
| MGrunde_ | Ampelbein, The error I get when I run "xrandr --output default --mode 1280x1024_60.00" (after adding that modeline using --newmode and --addmode) is "xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed" | 01:09 |
| tyl3r | TheMoonMaster: do you have option "allow websites to use own fonts" in firefox set? | 01:09 |
| mobi-sheep | I'd like to trim down the processes.... What do you suggest? I'm looking at Startup Applications and bum (Boot Up Manager). Most of the services does not have descriptions which render them useless to me. | 01:09 |
| Ampelbein | MGrunde: you could also open a bug on launchpad for that issue, please use 'ubuntu-bug -p xorg' to automatically attach needed information | 01:09 |
| nightdrever | #megworld | 01:09 |
| tr-ip | so if I install kde using apt-get or install or whatever how would I make it load instead of gnome? | 01:09 |
| pepperjack | mobi-sheep: all the raid stuff can go unless you are using it. id just look in /etc/init.d and google for each script to see if you need it to run | 01:09 |
| TheMoonMaster | Yes I do | 01:10 |
| Flannel | tr-ip: You'd install kubuntu-desktop (that'll give you kde). And then at the login screen (gdm or kdm) you'd choose which you wanted under Sessions | 01:10 |
| yowshi1 | is there any way to find out exact;ly which programme keeps bogging down my system by taxing my hard drives? | 01:10 |
| tyl3r | TheMoonMaster: ok. Could you please tell me your fonts used in Firefox / sizes ? Would be nice... | 01:10 |
| TheMoonMaster | yowshi1: Open a terminal and type top | 01:10 |
| mobi-sheep | pepperjack: Is there a Ubuntu website that list all processes / startup / etc? Something that people would like to know. Kinda like sysreg for Windows. Lol. | 01:11 |
| yowshi1 | TheMoonMaster: i've tried top before i dont know how to scroll in it or how to use it to find out whats using the hard drive | 01:11 |
| Flannel | mobi-sheep: What do you mean? Like man pages? | 01:11 |
| === Pikachu is now known as Guest15155 | ||
| TheMoonMaster | I'm on my netbook right now, so the sizes would be different, but the fonts are proportional -> serif, serif -> serif, sans-serif -> sans-serif, monospace -> monospace | 01:12 |
| tyl3r | TheMoonMaster: ok thx | 01:12 |
| MGrunde_ | Ampelbein, Yeah, I probably will. Everything seemed to work in Hardy though. That's why I thought this would just be a quick fix. Guess not. | 01:12 |
| mobi-sheep | Flannel: Take a look in System --> Preferences --> Startup Applications. There are a list of services that have no description and I would like to know what their purposes is so I can trim down processes. | 01:12 |
| TheMoonMaster | On here the sizes are all 9 | 01:12 |
| nevyn | network-manager initiates a ppp connection to a mobile internet connection but it doesn't call /etc/ppp/ip-up is this known behavior? | 01:12 |

| billisnice | can anyone lead me to a tutorial on how to connect a ubuntu 9.04 machine to a windows xp printer? when i search for a printer on the network the printer box disappears | 01:13 |

| === anil is now known as Guest3882 | ||
| mobi-sheep | Flannel: Not to mention that I installed and ran bum too. I wanted to trim down things that do not apply to me. | 01:13 |
| mobi-sheep | !info bum | Flannel | 01:13 |
| ubottu | Flannel: bum (source: bum): graphical runlevel editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.2.1-2 (jaunty), package size 81 kB, installed size 516 kB | 01:13 |

| Flannel | mobi-sheep: I'm aware of what bum is. I sggest reading the man pages for each process. | 01:13 |
| Ampelbein | MGrunde: using the above command, a solution will quickly be found, I think. | 01:13 |
| mobi-sheep | Flannel: Yeah. Seems like it. Thanks. | 01:14 |
| tyl3r | TheMoonMaster: will try further with fonts or else maybe with a standard set zoom for all websites in firefox....as websites might still be optimized for lower res these days...will try your posted settings with 16 right now... | 01:14 |

| juxbox | hi | 01:15 |
| juxbox | i have a weird problem with sound, nothing with audio works, any idea why and how to fix it? | 01:16 |
| MGrunde_ | Ampelbein, Okay, bug filed. Thanks for your help | 01:16 |
| timewriter | hi | 01:16 |
| th0r | juxbox: I found reference to a bug in 9.04 where the sound starts muted at bootup. Check the mixer and see if the volume is muted | 01:16 |
| timewriter | ubuntu runs pretty nice in vmware | 01:17 |
| TheMoonMaster | tyl3r: I looked up the problem and some say that editing your appearance->font->details and setting hinting to none fixes things | 01:17 |
| sebsebseb | timewriter: sure, but I hope your only doing that to test the OS | 01:17 |
| timewriter | yes | 01:17 |
| sebsebseb | timewriter: you should partition your hard disk for real, for proper Ubuntu usage :) | 01:17 |

| maragon | hi all, I have the sigmatel STAC92xx soundcard on my Dell Vostro 1700, and I was wondering how to get s/pdif playback via the 11-pin s-video port on the back. I have my second display connected to the port fine to the special dell dongle that breaks it into rgb and s/pdif but i cannot switch over to digital sound ouput like in windows vista | 01:53 |
| usser | CoJaBo-Aztec, possible | 01:54 |
| seansean | Gnae: Thanks for listening. I'll have to persevere running Jaunty purely from USB till I can source fix | 01:54 |
| Ampelbein | robert__: if you have a lpia-compatible processor it would be best to install the lpia-port of ubuntu to get the best possible speed. | 01:54 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | usser: I have a backup (and needed it recently for a different problem), but its a few days old and would take time to restore. | 01:54 |
| robert__ | Ampelbein, whats lpia? | 01:55 |
| maragon | btw I am running Jaunty ---sorry for the interrupt -Aztec | 01:55 |

| Ghoti_ | Okashi: when you boot and are at the login prompt, there should be a 'session options' button | 02:11 |
| DasEi | mugen : open a terminal... | 02:11 |
| Lyez | ok, this might be a good one: i've loaded VLC and Xine, and they will not play any DVD's that I insert into the dvd-rom. anyone know of a good dvd player for ubuntu? the error i get is "libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable"... | 02:11 |
| Ghoti_ | snell: looks like you're missing some GPG keys for one of your repos | 02:12 |
| mugen | dasei: so navigate to it and "open install.sh"? | 02:12 |

| NEO117 | hi I'd like to know if you can get viruses on a Windows Partition by using an infected USB device through Linux | 02:20 |
| sebsebseb | NEO117: if you put on the Windows partition from the USB stick sure | 02:21 |
| mrh | every bittorrent client I have tried causes my system to totally crash - it just freezes. This began happening after months of trouble free use, I am on Hardy, running KDE, has anyone seen THIS problem? | 02:21 |
| sebsebseb | NEO117: otherwise probably not, because the viruses can't run on Ubuntu | 02:21 |
| DaZ | NEO117: ubuntu doesn't support autoruns so no | 02:21 |
| NEO117 | ok thanks | 02:21 |
| NEO117 | actually the partition is on the same HDD | 02:22 |
| snell | ghoti: same deal | 02:22 |
| IsReal | NEO117, doesn't matter, can't get infected | 02:22 |
| sebsebseb | NEO117: you can have Windows viruses in your Ubuntu partition, whilst your Windows partition is also mounted, without the Windows partiton getting infected | 02:22 |
| NEO117 | thanks a lot | 02:23 |
| sebsebseb | NEO117: no problem | 02:23 |
| sebsebseb | he should probably remove the virusees off his USB device though, but yeah he is gone now | 02:23 |
| IsReal | yep | 02:24 |
| IsReal | clamav to the rescue | 02:24 |
| sebsebseb | that could do it yeah | 02:24 |
| sebsebseb | ,but I guess it applys even to USB devices | 02:24 |
| sebsebseb | start over with a new partition, to make sure all viruses are gone | 02:24 |
| cemerick | how do I disable password authentication through ssh for a single user? | 02:25 |
| sebsebseb | IsReal: format partition yeah | 02:25 |
| IsReal | Yes! | 02:25 |
| IsReal | Lvl format! | 02:26 |
| sebsebseb | IsReal: Lvl ??? | 02:26 |
| IsReal | Low Level | 02:26 |
| Ghoti_ | cemerick: disable it in /etc/passwd, and make sure they have a public key in ~user/.ssh/authorized_keys | 02:26 |

| Bold` | hello.. when I try to install ubuntu using wubi, it installs the the amd64 release insteade of the x86, I am having Intel E6550 CPU.. is this normal ? | 02:30 |
| cemerick | Ghoti_: there are no passwords in /etc/passwd -- do you mean /etc/shadow? Or, shouldn't we just do 'passwd -l username'? | 02:30 |
| Ghoti_ | cemerick: I meant the latter | 02:30 |
| pettee | yes Bold`, that's normal and basically means the 64bit version | 02:31 |
| cemerick | Ghoti_: OK, that makes more sense. Is locking the password better, and still achieves the same goal? Editing /etc/shadow doesn't seem like a good idea. | 02:32 |
| Bold` | pettee, is there any advantage of running the 64 version ? or disadvantage ? | 02:32 |
| losher | !tv | C-00000100 | 02:32 |
| ubottu | C-00000100: http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), Kaffeine, kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Me-TV (GNOME), Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out | 02:32 |
| Ghoti_ | cemerick: locking the password prevents that user from using a password to login to the system, but they should still be able to use public-key authenticated SSH to connect | 02:32 |
| cemerick | Ghoti_: right, that's what I'm aiming for | 02:33 |
| C-00000100 | Thanks losher | 02:33 |
| cemerick | Am I just paranoid w.r.t. not touching /etc/shadow? | 02:33 |
| cemerick | (manually, that is) | 02:33 |
| Ghoti_ | cemerick: I would advise avoiding manual edits of /etc/{group,shadow,passwd} :) | 02:33 |
| cemerick | ok, that's what I figured | 02:34 |
| cemerick | thanks :-) | 02:34 |
| Ghoti_ | cemerick: my pleasure | 02:34 |

| Chr|s | Computer_Man: there should be no where to go, it should automaticly find it. | 02:40 |
| mrh | losher: that was in the ubuntu forums | 02:40 |
| losher | mrh: it's plausible. I wouldn't know how to go about fixing it though | 02:40 |
| Chr|s | Computer_Man: what kind of video card do you have? | 02:40 |
| Computer_Man | well it didn't find it at all. | 02:40 |
| Computer_Man | now sure what kind it is. | 02:41 |
| losher | mrh: is it an onboard NIC? | 02:41 |
| mrh | losher: thanks man | 02:41 |
| Computer_Man | is built on the MOBO | 02:41 |
| mrh | losher: yeah | 02:41 |
| Third3ye | I guess alt install will have to do... | 02:41 |
| Chr|s | Computer_Man: ok how do you know it wasn't found, and yes I know it is :) | 02:41 |
| Computer_Man | if i do grep -i vga | 02:41 |
| Third3ye | unless someone comes up with an idea on how to make the original ubuntu install CD work? | 02:41 |
| mrh | losher: under 6 months in use, Intel 945GC chipset | 02:41 |
| Chr|s | Computer_Man: ok when you do that, what does it list | 02:41 |
| Computer_Man | I get grep -i vga and VGA is RED | 02:42 |
| Moonsocket_ | any one kno where to get a snes 9x that works well with ubuntu | 02:42 |
| losher | mrh: NICs are pretty cheap. It might pay you to disable the onboard NIC and try with an external card. What did the old thread say to do? | 02:42 |
| mrh | losher: what gets me is that I had been using bittorrent w/out a problem for months | 02:42 |
| losher | mrh: I know. I almost suspect your power supply. They are usually the first component to fail, and can lead to hangs etc. | 02:43 |
| mrh | losher: ehhhh, in that old thread, everyone concluded that it was a kernel issue, but no solution came up, and it looks like no one paid attention to the issue | 02:43 |
| mrh | losher: nah man, it ain't a hardware issue, I tested the power supply, thing's ok | 02:44 |

| Okashi | Is Ghoti_ still here? | 02:46 |
| mrh | C-00000100: tested it | 02:46 |
| mrh | C-00000100: no probs | 02:46 |
| Ghoti_ | Okashi: Let me ask around :) | 02:46 |
| Okashi | Ghoti_ I booted into failsafe and tried to update | 02:46 |
| Computer_Man | System > Administration > Hardware Drivers don't show me drivers | 02:47 |
| C-00000100 | yes' mrh ? with the psb or similar? | 02:47 |
| Ghoti_ | Okashi: any luck? | 02:47 |
| mrh | C-00000100: used a tester I have | 02:47 |
| Okashi | but the updater says I'm out of space, I have 3 gigs empty | 02:47 |
| mrh | C-00000100: also backprobed it | 02:47 |
| mrh | C-00000100: I always do this with the nwe boxes I build | 02:47 |
| Computer_Man | and it won't allow me to do above normal display mode in the display properties | 02:47 |
| Ghoti_ | Okashi: what does 'df -H' say? | 02:48 |
| unikon | after installine wine and the windows version of vlc ive removed both using synaptic yet they are still showing up on my applications list how can i remove them from the application list | 02:48 |
| losher | mrh: switching to PCBSD I guess would prove the hardware is fine. FWIW, I run a heavily loaded rtorrent on 7.10 without problems | 02:48 |
| mrh | C-00000100: I like making sure bs does not come up after I build it, it has worked well so far, this method | 02:48 |
| sam555 | now imgburn and roxio have not been able to make a iso into cd | 02:48 |

| mrh | losher: I have tested ALL the HW on this box | 02:49 |
| C-00000100 | mrh my tester checks all 12 channels,, worth it to get the expensive one in my line of work, and i agree with losher | 02:49 |

| Okashi | Ghoti_ it says this http://pastebin.com/d2eb851f | 02:50 |
| pettee | not at all a fan of pcbsd, but i love freenas - and any new os install and stress test will help narrow problems down | 02:50 |
| sam555 | Chr|s: how do I verify if the issue is not the iso? | 02:50 |
| mrh | pettee: no | 02:51 |
| Stargazer | Is there any way to limit how much upload i do? | 02:51 |
| losher | mrh: the bsds are very stable, in my experience. Otherwise, I'd try centos | 02:51 |
| mrh | losher: yeah, I am drawn to BSD because I have simply yet to read about any of the myriad little issues on them | 02:51 |
| Computer_Man | does anyone else have suggestions on my driver issue so that 3d cube can work? | 02:51 |

| === rachel is now known as Guest34417 | ||

| Pinder | Does anyone know why Ubuntu adds a ";1" to every file on a mounted disc? | 02:52 |

| Okashi | XD I had 3 gigs open before I updated.... | 02:53 |
| mrh | pettee: sure, although I have tested all the HW on this box | 02:53 |
| losher | mrh: openbsd/freebsd/netbsd are all very stable, in my experience. | 02:53 |
| Okashi | ubuntu ate my gigs...*sob* | 02:53 |
| Pinder | No? :( | 02:53 |
| panfist | digitalchemist i went there but i could not remove it. i tried to unset the key but that didn't appear to do anything | 02:53 |
| mrh | losher: yeah that is why I am going to give PCBSD (which is just FreeBSD with a bunch of scripts on top) a spin | 02:54 |
| jdu | Pinder, give more info to the channel. What type of disk? What filesystem? | 02:54 |

| ``y7 | is there something i have to do to get my eth's to refresh after i configure them through the ubuntu gui because they don't show any updates when i run ifconfig after configuring them....? | 02:54 |

| th0r | michael__: iwconfig | 02:55 |
| mrh | losher: I might, thing is, I am so short on time . . . that's why this issue has become such a big deal, I mean, W XP handles bittorrent JUST FINE | 02:55 |

| magician0617 | Hi PacoBuntu | 02:56 |
| mrh | losher: hell, I had a dual boot with it, xp pro, until recently (deleted it) and it handled bittorrent without a problem | 02:56 |
| losher | mrh: so run wxp. I still use it for some things. Contrary to local opinion, it's not a sin... | 02:56 |
| ``y7 | jdu, i was adjusting them through system>preferences>network connections is there a better/different way i can do it with a gui? | 02:56 |
| mrh | losher: I deleted the partition, had gone months without booting into it, can't stand it anymore | 02:57 |
| Ghoti_ | Okashi: it should have cleared the package cache.. check df- H again, and look at the free space on /dev/sda1 | 02:57 |
| losher | mrh: might be quicker to try 7.10 | 02:57 |
| Okashi | Ghoti_ everything is the same | 02:57 |

| mrh | losher: 7.10? | 02:58 |
| mrh | losher: I am on 8.04.1 | 02:58 |
| Ghoti_ | Okashi: strange. When you did the apt-get clean, did it *instantly* give you another prompt, or did it take a moment? | 02:58 |
| ``y7 | jdu, that brings me to the same place as the way i was using | 02:58 |

| Chr|s | !ssh | zer0rez | 03:09 |
| ubottu | zer0rez: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | 03:09 |
| Ghoti_ | zer0rez: 1> sudo apt-get install openssh-server 2> open Terminal, look at Edit -> Profile Preferences 3> depends on the type of filesharing | 03:10 |
| jdu | zer0rez, I am not sure those are dumb. A client will already have support to login via ssh. To enable sshd, sudo apt-get install openssh-server. | 03:10 |

| Severity1 | i uninstalled my virtualbox withoutdeletingmy virtual hdd so it caused a serious bug that bleachbit fixed | 04:13 |
| R0b` | storbeck, no ssh access, only ftp | 04:13 |

| R0b` | hm? | 04:13 |
| R0b` | dthacker, sounds good | 04:13 |

| dthacker | Okashi: if I'm following correcltly, you're filesystem is at 100% and you can't delete anything. fsck may find garbage entries in the fs and clean them up, giving you back some space. I've done this successfully on ext3 filesystems. | 04:36 |

If a song is playing It will be like "Tell me now how should I feel How duh uh uh uh uh" My question: How do I get the system to NOT re-enable wireless upon restart? | 04:50 |
| metalpres | raylu: neither are the IPs are the 192.168.xxx.xxx one i normally use though | 04:50 |
| raylu | metalpres: well, there's your problem :D | 04:50 |
| travers | metalpres, yep | 04:50 |
| Severity1 | Persi look at glxinfo and see if theres a line direct rendering: yes i want to confirm something | 04:51 |
| jim__ | Bob_Dole: could /etc/blacklist the driver, or edit /etc/network/interfaces, or add "ifconfig eth1 down" to /etc/rc.local | 04:51 |
| raylu | metalpres: before it gave you the ip, it should give you a dns provider. is that correct? | 04:51 |
| g0wda | storbeck: gparted is locked... no editing button is active | 04:51 |
| Persi | direct rendering: Yes | 04:51 |
| morningwalker | i need to know how to seek audio files, the cursor on rhythmbox or banshee just doesnt move... | 04:51 |
| Severity1 | okay good | 04:51 |
| Severity1 | open 2 terminal tabs | 04:51 |

| storbeck | g0wda: Are you sure you are on a livecd? Or are you booted into your system? | 04:52 |
| Severity1 | on the other one run pstree -p | 04:52 |
| g0wda | Yeah I am using a live CD | 04:52 |
| Severity1 | and on the other one run top | 04:52 |
| usr13 | g0wda: Unmount the filesystem first. | 04:52 |
| metalpres | raylu: it didnt give me any dns info, just 2 ips and then timed out | 04:52 |
| chuck_ | daniel010101, are you trying to make a custom ubuntu iso? | 04:52 |
| Persi | will htop work? | 04:52 |
| daniel010101 | yes | 04:52 |
| Persi | with sudo? | 04:52 |
| Severity1 | look at pstree see the processes under xorg | 04:52 |
| Severity1 | yep with sudo | 04:52 |
| travers | g0wda, yeah, you don't want ot start moving around a partition while reading and writing to it | 04:52 |
| g0wda | oh... right i didn't think of that... unmounting :) | 04:52 |
| raylu | metalpres: oops, sorry. use: nslookup computername | 04:52 |
| travers | metalpres bind-tools is win for dns issues | 04:53 |

| FluxD | Hi, this is my setup, http://i39.tinypic.com/b4f4a9.jpg I cannot boot to Ubuntu, please help in reisntalling grub | 04:53 |
| g0wda | and another thing... nautilus doesn't open if i put any cd in in jaunty, ther's a bug filed on launchpad the solution as resolved there is to uninstall brasero and use gnomebaker instead! | 04:54 |
| morningwalker | can anyone please tell me why i cant seek any audio file in any media player installed... ? | 04:54 |
| jim__ | morningwalker: what type of audio file | 04:54 |
| Persi | any more orders? | 04:54 |
| Severity1 | yep those under xorg arechildprocesses one of those is probably cpu hungry | 04:54 |
| metalpres | raylu: ok that time it gave me the dns server ip | 04:54 |
| Severity1 | let pstree guide you | 04:54 |
| arand | FluxD: What happens when you boot? | 04:54 |
| Severity1 | run top on the other terminal tab | 04:54 |
| raylu | metalpres: is that the correct server? | 04:54 |
| infinityxi | morningwalker: what are the programs saying? | 04:54 |
| Persi | there is nothing under xorg! | 04:54 |
| daniel010101 | i still dont know how to create a custom iso | 04:54 |
| raylu | FluxD: what's with sda5? | 04:55 |
| travers | daniel, its not easy. | 04:55 |
| daniel010101 | oh | 04:55 |
| Persi | and in htop only 1 process eats 70% as I said in the original message | 04:55 |
| morningwalker | jim__; mp3 and wma | 04:55 |
| metalpres | its the ip of my router, not the machine i want to connect to | 04:55 |
| Severity1 | what is this process | 04:55 |
| FluxD | arand: I was using the vista bootloader to boot but it somehow messed up and doesnt let me boot in now | 04:55 |
| usr13 | FluxD: Boot to the root filesystem and re-install grub | 04:55 |
| jim__ | morningwalker: no idea | 04:55 |
| craig_ | can anyone hear me? | 04:55 |
| metalpres | raylu: its the ip of my router, not the machine i want to connect to | 04:55 |
| morningwalker | infinityxi: the program gives no such error, the cursor in the media payer just doesnt move | 04:55 |
| durt | morningwalker, that particular file's encoding doesn't support seek, or is it more than one file type? | 04:55 |
| travers | yeach craig | 04:55 |
| dthacker | craig_: yes | 04:55 |
| daniel010101 | is there anything to create a xact iso of my whole system to a iso for backup | 04:55 |
| infinityxi | daniel010101: genisoimage | 04:55 |
| Persi | /usr/bin/X :0 -br -audit 0 -auth | 04:55 |
| infinityxi | look into that | 04:55 |
| FluxD | raylu: its a 5 gb windows xp partition | 04:55 |
| raylu | metalpres: generally, your router is also your dns server, so that's fine | 04:56 |
| usr13 | FluxD: Boot to the root filesystem and do: grub-install hd0 | 04:56 |
| FluxD | usr13: I dont know how to do it | 04:56 |
| metalpres | raylu: yea | 04:56 |
| morningwalker | durt; it used to work in the last session | 04:56 |
| panfist | help, i was messing around with my themes, i rebooted and now i dont see any gnome panels or window titles | 04:56 |
| raylu | metalpres: in which case, you need to convince your router that computername is something else | 04:56 |
| craig_ | dtchen, thanks. I guess I'm still logged into xchat at work and there's bee a server change, I can't log into the box that faces out | 04:56 |
| travers | daniel, sure, mkisofs -U -J -o wholesystem.iso / | 04:56 |
| meatball | what would you guys recommend for a good irc client for ubuntu | 04:56 |
| meatball | i don't think i like xchat-gnome | 04:56 |
| FluxD | usr13: I am in livecd now | 04:56 |
| arand | FluxD: ah, if you still want to use the vista bcd bootloader I would recommend using EasyBCD from within vista to configure, otherwise install grub. | 04:56 |
| raylu | FluxD: why is it in your extended partition? | 04:56 |
| durt | morningwalker, last session of what? | 04:56 |
| |freddy| | irssi, and i LOVE LOVE LOVE Kvirc | 04:56 |
| craig_ | Is there a list of the best current wireless cards for ubuntu? | 04:56 |
| meatball | kk | 04:56 |
| usr13 | FluxD: Mount the root filesystem and then chroot to it. | 04:56 |
| daniel010101 | mkisofs -U -J -o wholesystem.iso / does this create a whole xact copy of my system to iso | 04:56 |
| meatball | i've heard good things of irssi | 04:57 |
| meatball | i'll try that | 04:57 |
| travers | yeah. | 04:57 |
| |freddy| | meatball: you need kde-libs for kvirc | 04:57 |
| FluxD | arand: I did try with easybcd it wont let me boot into ubuntu still after removing and readding ubuntu | 04:57 |
| raylu | usr13: --root-directory is simpler | 04:57 |
| Persi | Severity? | 04:57 |
| |freddy| | but irssi runs from console...so good stuff | 04:57 |
| travers | you can loopback mount the resulting iso if you want to verify that | 04:57 |
| Persi | what do I do with it? | 04:57 |
| g0wda | I can't unmount 1 partition but... it seems it's being used by an app... i don't see which one... is there a way to force unmount it??? | 04:57 |
| stryd_one | meatball: xchat-gnome isn't actually xchat, and it's horrible. get real xchat. | 04:57 |
| FluxD | raylu: its a complicated setup with xp vista and ubuntu | 04:57 |
| travers | g0wda use -lf | 04:57 |
| usr13 | FluxD: chroot /media/hda4 #where /media/hda4 is the root filesystem. | 04:57 |
| metalpres | raylu: im not sure what you mean | 04:57 |
| |freddy| | and if you find a shell like aterm....you can find some good shells that wont consume much resources | 04:57 |
| raylu | metalpres: i mean you need to configure your router | 04:57 |
| Severity1 | Persi: do you know the PID of that process? | 04:58 |
| Persi | 2798 | 04:58 |
| g0wda | travers: fulll command pleas :) i unmounted the others with n autilus ;) | 04:58 |
| Severity1 | kill it | 04:58 |
| Persi | it will kill X | 04:58 |
| Persi | I think | 04:58 |
| travers | g0wda umount -lf /dev/problemdrive | 04:58 |
| FluxD | usr13: I am in livecd now, so what is my next step | 04:58 |
| g0wda | thanks | 04:58 |
| Persi | and Im not used to command line IRC | 04:58 |
| travers | kill X on ubuntu? its like the undead, it keeps coming back | 04:58 |
| arand | FluxD: That's bothersome... I dodn't know how to fix it through BCD then... does it give any messages when trying to boot into ubuntu? | 04:58 |
| Persi | ok lets try | 04:58 |
| travers | is there an /etc/init.d/X that can be brought down? | 04:58 |
| usr13 | FluxD: Where ever you have /dev/sda6 mounted chroot to it. mount will show you what you have mounted now. | 04:58 |
| raylu | travers: invoke-rc.d gdm stop | 04:59 |
| Severity1 | kill 2798 | 04:59 |
| travers | there you guys go | 04:59 |
| DaZ | travers: init 3 | 04:59 |
| FluxD | arand: it gets stuck on Loading partiton image, and it says something about bootpart | 04:59 |
| raylu | usr13: did you see my earlier comment? consider grub-install --root-directory | 04:59 |
| travers | Daz, mmm telinit | 04:59 |
| metalpres | raylu: in my routers settings it already shows my other machine listed and it recognizes the machines name correctly | 04:59 |
| stryd_one | i guess persi was right, it did kill X ;) | 04:59 |
| metalpres | raylu: just when i try to connect to that machine using its name from this machine it doesnt respond | 04:59 |
| panfist | i'm on ubuntu netbook remix, i'm trying to restart x and ctrl-alt-backspace isn;t wokring | 05:00 |
| raylu | metalpres: then i'm not sure. the problem is most likelywith your router, though | 05:00 |
| PacoBuntu | Can someone tell me which ubuntu theme and iconset are being used in this screenshot: http://techpad.co.uk/images/medium/7qycps8mg.png ? | 05:00 |
| travers | metalpres, it just sounds like you need a proper A record in a dns server somewhere | 05:00 |
| usr13 | raylu: no, did not see that... | 05:00 |
| Severity1 | Persi: what is the name of that process wit PID 2798 | 05:00 |
| daniel010101 | can i install ubuntu netbook remix on ubuntu 9.04 on my laptop?? | 05:00 |
| Persi | ok how helpful was it? | 05:00 |
| Bob_Dole | As of 9.04 CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE no longer kills x by default | 05:00 |
| usr13 | raylu: I usually just use grub-install hd0 | 05:00 |
| === geoffrey is now known as geo | ||
| panfist | ahh i see bob_dole | 05:00 |
| ZykoticK9-eee | panfist, 9.04 has disabled ctrl-alt-backspace you need to edit Xorg to enable it - search google for full instructions | 05:00 |
| FluxD | usr13: /dev/sda6 on /media/disk type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal) | 05:00 |
| raylu | !dontzap | panfist | 05:00 |
| ubottu | panfist: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 05:00 |
| Bob_Dole | It can be re-enabled, but I can't remember how off the top of my head | 05:00 |
| Persi | X restarted obviously with no effect, as I have this problem for weeks | 05:00 |
| usr13 | FluxD: chroot /media/disk | 05:01 |
| Persi | Severity? | 05:01 |
| daniel010101 | !shipit | 05:01 |
| ubottu | shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu and Kubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org - Shipit will send Jaunty (9.04) CDs | 05:01 |
| Severity1 | Persi: kill 2798 | 05:01 |

| Persi | I did it | 05:01 |
| Severity1 | what happened | 05:01 |
| Persi | just not with PID, with htop | 05:01 |
| daniel010101 | why dont canonical ship xubuntu :-( | 05:01 |
| usr13 | FluxD: sudo chroot /media/disk | 05:01 |
| Persi | X restarted | 05:01 |
| raylu | usr13: right. grub-install hd0 --root-directory=/media/disk; saves you from chrooting | 05:01 |
| Severity1 | then? | 05:01 |
| Persi | as I said | 05:01 |
| metalpres | raylu: ok well thanks anyway, i guess i'll just use my backup plan and set the ips on each machine to be static so i dont have to even worry about using the machine names | 05:02 |
| FluxD | usr13: done next thing? | 05:02 |
| Bob_Dole | I just got my jaunty CD today. I -really- like having at least one pressed, professional looking disk around, rather than burned disks with sloppy permanent marker "labels" | 05:02 |
| usr13 | raylu: Oh, never done that. | 05:02 |
| raylu | metalpres: as a hack, you could edit /etc/hosts | 05:02 |
| travers | metalpres, depending on how ofen the clients dhcp and the dhcpd, they may get the same ip every time | 05:02 |
| Persi | then what? usual restart, logged in and conky says 60% of both cores are eaten | 05:02 |
| usr13 | FluxD: sudo grub-install hd0 | 05:02 |
| Bob_Dole | (been running jaunty since the beta, though) | 05:02 |
| Severity1 | overkill | 05:02 |

| daniel010101 | #kubuntu | 05:03 |
| Severity1 | hold on | 05:03 |
| Persi | ok | 05:03 |
| Bob_Dole | raylu, only if your BIOS supports USB boot! and I have 30 machines running jaunty right now that don't. | 05:03 |
| metalpres | travers: no they dont, if 1 machine is on and the other isnt the router just gives out the first available one, so it kind of causes my 2 machines to be constantly switching between 2 ips depending which one was on first or rebooted first | 05:03 |
| raylu | PacoBuntu: i don't remember the name, but it's easy to find the dark one in the appearance manager | 05:04 |
| travers | metalpres, like I said, depends on the dhcpd =) | 05:04 |
| Severity1 | have you tried reconfiguring xorg? | 05:04 |
| durt | daniel010101, try '/join #kubuntu' | 05:04 |
| raylu | Bob_Dole: ouch. how do you have the 30 set up? | 05:04 |
| daniel010101 | hmm | 05:04 |

| Bob_Dole | 8.04 was Hardy Heron, 8.10 was Intrepid Ibex, 9.04 is Jaunty Jackalope, 9.10 will me Karmic Koala. | 05:04 |
| Persi | I think I did a while back, it gives a blank xorg.conf, right? But I have to turn on UXA to make it bearable | 05:04 |
| Severity1 | can you check and see which process is running 60% now | 05:05 |
| Persi | you suggest I try aain? | 05:05 |
| daniel010101 | 9.10 =-O | 05:05 |

| FUbbyCD | i did | 05:12 |
| arand | FluxD: I think you might have lost the grub mbr on the partition, did you change the partition to which grub has written it's mbr recently? | 05:12 |
| FUbbyCD | what im unsure about is the virtualbox part | 05:12 |
| FUbbyCD | what version do i need | 05:12 |
| chuck_ | relive, then you can black list it | 05:12 |
| travers | fubbycd, try #virtualbox? | 05:12 |
| Severity1 | what happened persi? resolution is low? | 05:12 |
| FUbbyCD | and can i update the virtualbox to the version that supports usb connections without loosing my xp installation | 05:12 |
| Severity1 | sudo cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:13 |

| Bob_Dole | Setup 1 machine with xubuntu, then used Acronis to back it up. After that, just copied the image to all the other machines.. they all have "10GB" HD's, but they are really 9.3-9.5GibiByte.... shouldn't 10 GigaByte all be the same Gibibytes? well anyways, the original machine was a 9.5Gibibyte system. Acronis resizes the swap for me, but ubuntu won't use it because of the UUID thing. I have to manually go in and change it to /dev/ | 05:14 |
| Bob_Dole | sda5 on the 9.3GB drives :/ | 05:14 |
| Persi | but it doesnt use UXA now which was of some help originally | 05:14 |

| FluxD | arand: usr13 raylu Can I delete my xp and vista partitions and free up space will that help? I actually need files from the FAT32 | 05:14 |
| Bob_Dole | That was 1/3rd longer than I thought it was. | 05:14 |
| travers | Persi, my guess is you don't have hardware acceleration and you're running something intensive... that would creat high cpu load | 05:14 |
| g0wda | gparted is up and running,,,,, where is it best to place the linux swap part??? | 05:14 |

| raylu | panfist: if you could get to a terminal, i think you want to run "metacity" | 05:15 |
| raylu | FluxD: yes | 05:15 |
| panfist | ok, i right clicked on my desktop to change desktop background, then i changed the effects from none to normal (which is what i had last time i rebooted). now my window titles are restored but still no gnome panels | 05:15 |
| panfist | i can get to a terminal through ctrl-alt-f1 but if i run things in there will that effect ctrl-alt-f7? | 05:15 |

| FUbbyCD | what version of virtualbox in the repos supports usb connections? | 05:15 |
| Persi | or I think it is | 05:15 |
| arand | FluxD: Probably not with the boot issue... by the way how did you setup easybcd in the first place? | 05:15 |
| FUbbyCD | im on 9.04 | 05:15 |

| th0r | FluxD: http://paste.ubuntu.com/176138/ | 05:16 |
| usr13 | FluxD: Yes, you can delete the NTFS or FAT32 partitions, but I do not think it will solve the problem of not being able to re-install grub. | 05:16 |
| FluxD | arand: xp and vista were auto added, and Ubuntu using the Linux tab | 05:16 |
| th0r | FluxD: I used it once or twice...but it has been a while. Still, the info should be valid | 05:16 |
| Persi | well thanks for playing anyways | 05:16 |
| gop | which version of linux would run good on a PII 300mhz | 05:17 |
| arand | how did you install ubuntu, with grub bootaloder etc.? | 05:17 |
| Ghoti_ | gop: I had Gentoo running on that exact configuration for a long, long time as a headless server | 05:17 |
| RHorse | arand try fluxbuntu, but more like DSL for that machine | 05:17 |
| durt | gop, try an ubuntu cli install with lxde | 05:17 |
| panfist | gnome-appearance segfault... | 05:17 |
| FluxD | th0r, arand, raylu, usr13 is it due to the fact that ubuntu is on an extended partition? | 05:17 |
| panfist | in my /var/log/messages | 05:17 |
| arand | FluxD: how did you install ubuntu, with grub bootaloder etc.? | 05:17 |
| Severity1 | Persi: see if xserver-xorg-video-intel is installed | 05:18 |
| usr13 | FluxD: That should not matter. | 05:18 |
| FluxD | arand, installed vista first, then xp, then ubuntu, and installed grub to sda6 only I think | 05:18 |
| Severity1 | probably the driver installed in your machine is mesa | 05:18 |
| raylu | FluxD: have you tried grub-install with /dev/sda yet? | 05:18 |
| FluxD | raylu: can you paste the compelte command? | 05:19 |
| raylu | FluxD: you had it right | 05:19 |

| raylu | FluxD: 11:12:38 FluxD> raylu: sudo grub-install /dev/sda --root-directory=/media/disk ? | 05:19 |

| panfist | if i put a shortcut to a vritual terminal in my ~/Desktop folder, i can get terminal access from within a GUI...how do i make a shortcut to a virtual terminal | 05:19 |
| FluxD | trying that raylu | 05:19 |
| Bob_Dole | raylu, starting on different machines it did that | 05:20 |
| FluxD | raylu: root@ubuntu:/# sudo grub-install /dev/sda --root-directory=/media/disk sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu /dev/sda: Not found or not a block device. | 05:20 |

| FluxD | th0r, arand, raylu, usr13 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1114834 | 05:24 |
| usr13 | FluxD: Maye be an error in /media/disk/boot/grub/device.map | 05:24 |
| FluxD | last error is what I get for ubuntu | 05:24 |
| tag | I'm finding it rather annoying. gvim renders it as a nice, easier to read taller font than "Monospace 8". But gnome-terminal adds what seems like a bunch of arbitrary extra space, despite the fact that the font selector dialog seems to render it the way I'd expect | 05:24 |
| arand | FluxD: you might want to try root (hd0,5) instead, if you still want to try to get bcd up. | 05:24 |
| tag | almost as if gnome-terminal thinks it's a variable width font | 05:25 |
| FluxD | arand: what do you mean? | 05:25 |
| PacoBuntu | how do i get permission in nautilus to copy a folder ? | 05:25 |

| FluxD | okay trying | 05:26 |

| FluxD | th0r, arand, raylu, usr13 I will readd ubuntu using bcd and test it and come back | 05:31 |
| arand | FluxD: Now I think you could try configuring BCD again... | 05:31 |
| ralmar | stryd_one, im pretty sure this can be fixed without a reboot, dont know how though | 05:31 |
| arand | FluxD: exactemundo :) | 05:31 |
| FluxD | th0r, arand, raylu, usr13 thsnks again hopefully it works | 05:31 |

| R0b` | i'm so confused right now... | 05:38 |
| R0b` | grrr, and i'm not much of a terminal person | 05:38 |

| R0b` | i need this EVERY day | 05:39 |

| ziroday | yes FUbbyCD | 05:40 |
| FUbbyCD | ziroday: thanks so much.. now when i install this will it remove my xp installation | 05:40 |
| FUbbyCD | or just ose | 05:40 |
| R0b` | what if i want it to do this every hour | 05:40 |
| R0b` | can't i just do something with a timer? | 05:40 |
| FUbbyCD | because my xp installation is real important | 05:40 |
| ziroday | FUbbyCD: err it will most probably just remove virtualbox-ose | 05:40 |
| R0b` | like add a timer to the end of the script to make it run again an hour later? | 05:40 |
| ziroday | FUbbyCD: if its very important then make a backup of the VM | 05:40 |
| usr13 | R0b`: You can run it every hour. | 05:40 |
| FUbbyCD | well its not the xp installation just the vdi file | 05:41 |
| mneptok | R0b`: 22:40 < maco> R0b`, "man 5 crontab" to start | 05:41 |
| lstarnes | R0b`: that wouldn't be as efficient on resources if the script repeated itself, which is what cron/at are for | 05:41 |
| usr13 | R0b`: You can run it every hour. Just use * for hour. | 05:41 |
| R0b` | kk | 05:41 |
| R0b` | oh | 05:41 |
| FUbbyCD | im like you i doubt it would remove the vdi | 05:41 |
| maco | R0b`, that manpage will explain it much better than we can in a channel full of other people chattering | 05:41 |

| R0b` | sry | 05:42 |
| usr13 | R0b`: info crontab | 05:42 |
| dsnyders | usr13, can't R0b` just put a script into /etc/cron.hourly? | 05:42 |
| lstarnes | R0b`: I think you want crontab -e | 05:42 |
| Gnea | R0b`: try the crontab command | 05:43 |
| R0b` | hmm | 05:43 |
| R0b` | ok | 05:43 |
| FUbbyCD | got my fingers crossed im sure i could use data recovery software if something messes up | 05:43 |
| g0wda | hello all, i'm on a live CD, trying to setup my sick 40GB HDD for fastest possible performance... in gparted sda2 branches into two partitions what does this mean?? | 05:43 |
| usr13 | dsnyders: Yes... | 05:44 |
| trevor | ok so i got lxde running with a gnome base, and it is running unusually hot, hotter than gnome, it did this with mandriva too | 05:44 |
| g0wda | also how do i unmount linux swap partition | 05:44 |
| g0wda | ? | 05:44 |
| trevor | anyone know a reason why possibly? | 05:44 |
| arand | g0wda: it is an extended partition... | 05:44 |
| ziroday | g0wda: sudo swapoff -a | 05:44 |
| g0wda | tryin :) | 05:44 |
| usr13 | g0wda: shouldn't matter about the swap partition. | 05:45 |
| R0b` | ok ok | 05:45 |
| R0b` | so if | 05:45 |
| R0b` | i dump a shell file into /etc/cron.hourly | 05:45 |
| R0b` | will it run every hour? | 05:45 |
| usr13 | g0wda: YOu can try swapoff | 05:45 |
| usr13 | Create a script for /etc/cron.hourly yes. | 05:46 |
| arand | g0wda: since there are a limited amount of "top level partitions" one can use extended partitions to enable creation of basically infinite numbers of partitions although at each specific branch including the top level there can only be 5 of them | 05:46 |
| panfist | how do i find the path of a launcher's current icon | 05:47 |
| arand | g0wda: sorry, that was incomprehensible... | 05:47 |
| dsnyders | R0b`, Yes. The system runs the scripts in cron.hourly every hour. | 05:47 |
| songer | hello people | 05:47 |
| g0wda | I'm stuck with the branched partition... there's no enough space inside or outside the branch where i can paste the partition that has my data (12GB) | 05:47 |
| songer | this is my first time using ubuntu | 05:47 |
| songer | and I have some issues | 05:47 |
| R0b` | nice | 05:47 |
| R0b` | ok | 05:47 |
| dsnyders | R0b`, just make sure the script works properly first before copying it to that directory. | 05:48 |
| R0b` | so in about 12 minutes | 05:48 |
| R0b` | my script should run | 05:48 |
| R0b` | i know it works | 05:48 |
| P4R4 | can someone help me resolve an I/O error when trying to boot into live disk in 9.04? | 05:48 |
| R0b` | i wrote it, and every thing i write works | 05:48 |
| R0b` | lololz | 05:48 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | lol | 05:48 |
| songer | anybody can help me | 05:48 |
| FloodBot1 | R0b`: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:48 |
| g0wda | wait, i'll put a screenshot somewher :) | 05:48 |
| dsnyders | R0b`, It depends on your crontab file. Mine fires at 17 minutes past the hour | 05:48 |
| arand | g0wda: basically you can only have five partitions, but if one of these five are an extended one, you can have five partitons inside that partion... and so on... | 05:48 |
| R0b` | i'm not flooding | 05:48 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | Everything I write crashes lol | 05:48 |
| songer | hello | 05:48 |
| R0b` | hmmm... well | 05:48 |
| g0wda | ok... | 05:49 |

| FUbbyCD | I just installed virtualbox 2.2 and it does not show up in the start menu | 05:55 |
| omacblah | hello | 05:55 |
| ed2ef | p4r41, did u check the md5sum before burn the cd? | 05:55 |
| FUbbyCD | how do i start it? | 05:55 |
| hax0r1337 | usser_: what about like net browsing? | 05:55 |
| coreyman | arand is there a grub config file. | 05:55 |
| nevyn | I'm having troubles with ipmasq and networkmanager initiated ppp connections | 05:56 |
| P4R41 | ed2ef: the cd is good and i've installed from it on a different computer a few hours ago with no issue | 05:56 |
| arand | coreyman: edit the file menu.lst in /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove any acpi-off references | 05:56 |
| nevyn | is this a known problem? basically networkmanager is being used to start a ppp connection for a mobile broadband interface but it doesn't call /etc/ppp/ip-up when the link is established which means that ipmasq doesn't re-compute the iptables rules | 05:56 |
| friendishan | Where can i get themes for ubuntu 8.10 ? | 05:56 |

| ed2ef | first acpi=off | 05:57 |
| coreyman | arand ok | 05:57 |
| ed2ef | then if won't work, start to play around | 05:57 |

| friendishan | ed2ef and is there anything else i need to install before installing a theme? | 05:59 |
| usser_ | hax0r1337, http://paulstamatiou.com/2008/05/16/how-to-surf-securely-with-ssh-tunnel | 05:59 |
| ndenxz | #malang | 05:59 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, i think not, normally u just need to extract the theme to ~/.themes or /usr/share/themes | 05:59 |
| usr13 | songer: Keep your comments allon one line | 05:59 |
| g0wda | what is the diff b/w a logical partition and a primary partition? | 05:59 |
| friendishan | ed2ef and which kind of theme shud i install | 05:59 |
| P4R41 | cd driver works fine, i did a wubi install before to ntfs and the generic cd-rom driver was fine | 05:59 |

| ndenxz | my friend why my ubuntu can't installed to my laptop? | 06:00 |
| songer | what's thats meen | 06:00 |
| ndenxz | my laptop is axioo | 06:00 |
| g0wda | what is the diff b/w a logical partition and a primary partition? | 06:00 |
| hax0r1337 | usser_: thank you :) | 06:01 |
| fornix | g0wda: a hard disk can only have 4 primary partitions. to overcome this limitation we use logical drives within an extended partition (extended is type of a primary partition) | 06:01 |
| jyg_ | g0wda, a logical partition doesn't actually hold data, its a container for real partitions | 06:01 |
| P4R41 | logical paritions exist within primary partitions | 06:01 |
| ndenxz | ubuntu can't installed | 06:01 |
| ndenxz | why? | 06:01 |
| dsnyders | HI all. Is there a star raiders style game for ubuntu? | 06:01 |

| ralmar | Hey guys i cant connect to a vpn with network-manager-vpnc.. is there anyway i can see the error output of why its not connecting? | 06:02 |
| jyg_ | does Ubuntu not like partitions named "/media" ? | 06:02 |
| artistx | hola | 06:02 |
| g0wda | oh... thank you... so setting up only 4 primary 1s will be helpful for performance? | 06:02 |
| friendishan | ed2ef which 1 shud i install ? | 06:02 |
| songer | artistx | 06:02 |
| arand | fornix: btw can you have extended inside extended? | 06:02 |
| dsabecky | friendishan: Go for a GTK theme and a metacity theme. | 06:02 |
| artistx | hola songer | 06:02 |
| usser_ | hax0r1337, no problem | 06:02 |
| Starnestommy | g0wda: how many partitions you have won't affect performance much if at all | 06:02 |
| ed2ef | P4R41, did u search on ubuntuforums.org?maybe its a buggy bios or some other little thing that u can solve without cheat codes, or not | 06:02 |
| friendishan | dsabecky ok | 06:02 |
| fornix | arand: i am not sure about that | 06:02 |
| songer | what's up? | 06:02 |

| songer | If you don't gonna help me | 06:12 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | songer: Whats the problem? | 06:12 |
| lyrae | lstarnes: i think so. I look in repositories and all are checked. however, none say 'universal' | 06:13 |

| lstarnes | lyrae: universe, not universal | 06:13 |
| lyrae | i see restricted, canonical, community maintained, proprietary | 06:13 |
| lstarnes | lyrae: community-maintained is what you want | 06:13 |
| songer | when I open it the monitor says aout of range | 06:13 |

| ultratek | same issue | 06:14 |
| losher | g0wda: no, dunno where you got that idea. ext4 isn't really stable enough yet for general use, in my opinion | 06:15 |
| jyg_ | dsnyders, this isn't a temporary mounting... i'll figured something out. renaming the mtpoint as a last resort | 06:15 |
| friendishan | but now it says this theme will not work as intended because the required icon theme "black-white_2-style" is not installed | 06:15 |
| artistx | bueno ya me voy | 06:16 |

| jyg_ | ozatomic,sounds like your config is too weak to be myth | 06:19 |
| friendishan | no theme pack | 06:19 |
| losher | g0wda: yes it does, yes they do, and no, it's not stable... | 06:19 |

| dsnyders | G'night all! | 06:23 |
| neer1 | I upgraded from 8.04 to 9.04 | 06:23 |
| artistx | webos!!!! | 06:23 |
| Bob_Dole | Some older intel and ATI and Nvidia cards lost support | 06:23 |
| Chr|s | neer1: video card? proprietary driver enabled? | 06:23 |
| Bob_Dole | ENGLISH, DO YOU SPEAK IT? | 06:23 |
| th0r | mrynit: do you mean never connects, or never connects automatically? | 06:23 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, i like to use this one : http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/GOTCHIONE?content=93197 | 06:23 |
| jigp | win 2 | 06:23 |
| FarrisG | I've got a machine running 8.10 that keeps turning the display off every 30 minutes. If I hit a key on the keyboard, it'll come back, but I use this machine as an HTPC. I've got all the power settings turned off in both Gnome and Xorg. Any idea what else might be shutting it off? | 06:23 |
| mrynit | th0r, automatically | 06:23 |
| friendishan | ed2e | 06:24 |
| ed2ef | on xubuntu it looks nice | 06:24 |
| Myrtti | Bob_Dole: leave it to the ops | 06:24 |
| friendishan | ed2ef i downloaded that 1 and now how do install it? | 06:24 |
| th0r | mrynit: I am searching for the same info. Haven't found anything yet | 06:24 |
| Bob_Dole | But I want to be mean .-. | 06:24 |
| neer1 | Chris | 06:24 |
| artistx | Myrty you are un endejo jajaja | 06:24 |
| Chr|s | neer1: ? | 06:24 |
| th0r | mrynit: you know you can disable the automatic by editing the access point | 06:24 |
| mrynit | th0r, windows will warn you before it connects. I would expect better from ubuntu | 06:24 |
| neer1 | Chris: I don't know | 06:24 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, the theme u downloaded its like "theme.tar.gz" or "theme.tar.bz2", right? | 06:25 |
| neer1 | I am stuck in a console mode | 06:25 |
| neer1 | nothing working | 06:25 |
| jyg_ | argh | 06:25 |
| mrynit | th0r, i want it not auto connect on any AP. that mean new ones and ones i have already seen | 06:25 |
| jyg_ | install screwed up grub | 06:25 |
| Chr|s | neer1: Go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers and check | 06:25 |
| friendishan | ed2ef it is theme.tar.gz | 06:25 |
| mrynit | th0r, im thinking of switching to a different network manager | 06:25 |
| th0r | mrynit: yeah...me too. I am getting tired of having to go into each connection and disable the automatic one at a time | 06:25 |
| Chr|s | neer1: oh console only no GUI? | 06:25 |
| akram | hi | 06:25 |
| subb | Hey. Can I ask a question? I'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.04. I've created a partition on my Windows 7 drive and installed Unbuntu there. Also, I've installed Grub this partition, so Windows 7's bootloader would chainload to Grub (with the help of EasyBCD). I get to the point where I can choose between 7 and Ubuntu. | 06:25 |
| neer1 | it says Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode | 06:26 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, k now extract that file to ~/.themes or /usr/share/themes(on this folder, u need to be root to do it) | 06:26 |
| neer1 | and I cannot go throught | 06:26 |
| mrynit | neer1, what driver do you have in your xorg.conf/ | 06:26 |
| ShishKabab | Hi. Is there some command line program like cp available that has a progress bar? | 06:26 |
| subb | However, it can't find the bootloader at \NST\nst_grub-5612303F6575E99F46DCFEA8148BBB57.mbr | 06:26 |
| friendishan | ok | 06:26 |
| th0r | ShishKabab: not that I know of | 06:26 |
| neer1 | mrynit: where to find xorg.conf | 06:27 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, see if u clicking on the right mouse button on the theme, if there a option to extract, then extract it to ~/.themes | 06:27 |
| mrynit | neer1, less /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 06:27 |
| coreyman | When I installed ubuntu I checked a free only option somehow, how do i disable that since I need to install nvidia drivers | 06:27 |
| mrynit | neer1, you have to be root to edit the file | 06:27 |
| NvidiaUser | subb: I'm totally well kinda new to linux but EasyBCD and Grub are both boot loaders. Wouldn't you just need one? | 06:28 |
| neer1 | mrynit: I have entered it | 06:28 |
| mrynit | coreyman, in synaptic set the repos to include closed/proprietary sources. the find restricted kernel moduals/ drivers for nvidia | 06:28 |
| losher | ShishKabab: you can use rsync to copy files, and it will show progress. | 06:28 |
| neer1 | mrynit: now what to do? | 06:28 |
| mrynit | neer1, look around for drivers and settings | 06:28 |
| coreyman | mrynit thx | 06:28 |
| friendishan | ed2ef it says u do not have the right permissions to extarct in file://usr/share/themes | 06:28 |
| mrynit | coreyman, i have no idea if that would work but it sounds like a good start | 06:29 |
| friendishan | ed2ef it says u do not have the right permissions to extarct in file://usr/share/themes eventhough i am the admin | 06:29 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, what i told u?u need to be root to extract to this place, its better extract to ~/.themes | 06:29 |
| neer1 | mrynit: there is no driver and settings inside | 06:29 |
| subb | NvidiaUser : mmm maybe, but I'm scared to screw up something by overriding the Windows 7 boot loader | 06:30 |
| mrynit | under section device> driver | 06:30 |
| friendishan | where is ~/.themes ? ed2ef | 06:30 |
| neer1 | under "device" there is no driver | 06:30 |
| coreyman | mrynit i think this is going to work, i just enabled for proprietary drivers. | 06:30 |
| mrynit | coreyman, k. tell me if you get the drives | 06:30 |
| neer1 | mrynit: there is no dirvers inside device | 06:31 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, the location is "/home/<ur-user>/.themes" but u can type this location "~/.themes" | 06:31 |
| Bob_Dole | At least prior to BCD(and probably still with) you HAD to have 2 boot loaders for the simple fact that Grub can't boot windows directly and nothing MS makes is going to be able to boot linux. | 06:31 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, its the same thing | 06:31 |
| coreyman | mrynit its working. | 06:31 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, as "$HOME/.themess" | 06:31 |
| mrynit | coreyman, cool. know i konw how to install drivers :) | 06:31 |
| friendishan | ok | 06:31 |
| mrynit | neer1, then you dont have any video drivers install so you cannot get gui | 06:32 |
| ShishKabab | losher: The last time I used rsync (with -rav switches) I didn't see a progress bar, but it showed which files it was copying (like with cp -v). I need to see per-file progress for copying big files, like with scp. Hey, maybe scp also works for local files! | 06:32 |
| Chr|s | !irc | 06:32 |
| ubottu | A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines | 06:32 |
| neer1 | mrynit: then what can I do | 06:32 |
| neer1 | ? | 06:32 |
| mrynit | neer1, try running sudo init 5 | 06:32 |
| neer1 | mrynit: it was working fine when I was using 8.04 | 06:32 |
| friendishan | ed2ef i extracted now what do i do? to chnge the theme ? | 06:33 |
| subb | Bob_Dole : thanks for reminding me that I'm not doing stupid stuff :) | 06:33 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, maybe u need to create the folder .themes on your home dir, if is the case, go to your home dir(/home/your-user) and create a folder named ".themes" without the quotes | 06:33 |
| neer1 | mrynit: | 06:33 |
| coreyman | mrynit thats only if you tick the free software only box.. i think proprietary drivers are enabled by default if you dont | 06:33 |
| mrynit | neer1, tail /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 06:33 |
| mrynit | coreyman, yes | 06:33 |
| [ucb]kevin | perhaps someone can help me with the following: windows are opening in such an initial position that the title bare is hidden behind my main ubuntu "apps place system etc.." bar -- how can I fix this? | 06:33 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, i dunno, i never really used gnome, but start to look on the menus | 06:33 |
| ayo | there are source code in kernel, but make menuconfig, there is no responding config option, how to do with it? | 06:34 |
| neer1 | mrynit: it says no such directory or file | 06:34 |
| coreyman | kevin right click, move left click drag | 06:34 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, probably u gonna see something like "apparence" or other stuff like this | 06:34 |
| mrynit | th0r, are you still looking at wifi manager? | 06:34 |
| mrynit | neer1, ls /var/log/X* | 06:34 |
| th0r | mrynit: I am still trying to disable automatic ... but google hasn't been much help | 06:35 |
| mrynit | :/ | 06:35 |
| Bob_Dole | subb: what? | 06:35 |
| ayo | there are some items in Makefile and Kconfig about ath5x, how to show menu in "make menuconfig"? | 06:35 |
| neer1 | mrynit: now | 06:35 |
| ayo | help | 06:35 |
| friendishan | ed2ef thanks now it looks good | 06:35 |
| mrynit | ? | 06:35 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, did u got it? | 06:36 |
| friendishan | ed2ef i figured it out in some other way | 06:36 |
| * Bob_Dole quit using windows entirely towards the end of service pack 2 being the latest SP for windows out. | 06:36 | |
| ed2ef | friendishan, nice!now have fun on gnome-look! | 06:36 |
| Bob_Dole | SP2 for windows XP* | 06:36 |
| friendishan | but the desktop image didn't change ed2ef | 06:36 |
| wtl | i have a broadcom BCM4312. the download is very slow on ubuntu but it's fast on windows. any idea/ | 06:36 |
| coreyman | I am unable to connect to secure Wireless Access Points with knetworkmanagement what am I doing wrong. | 06:36 |
| jyg_ | uh, there's no /boot/grub directory on my fresh install of 9.09 :-/ | 06:37 |
| subb | Bob_Dole : I'm pretty newb at this booting stuff, so someone else telling me I'm not doing something completely stupid feels good (kinda) | 06:37 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, there is some icons packs there, but u can install someones by using the synaptic or the apt-get | 06:37 |
| neer1 | mrynit: it says "couldn't allocate video memory | 06:37 |
| Bob_Dole | subb, ah. OK. | 06:37 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, u need to change it manually | 06:37 |
| mrynit | neer1, what command did you run? | 06:37 |
| neer1 | tail /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 06:38 |
| mrynit | wtf | 06:38 |

| ed2ef | friendishan, google it! 2=) , as i already told u, i dont use gnome, so i dunno | 06:39 |
| jyg_ | and install didnt create a user | 06:39 |
| friendishan | but it says there is a later version use a software channel ed2ef how do i get the software channel ? | 06:39 |
| mrynit | neer1, you need to install the video drivers if you want a gui | 06:39 |
| jyg_ | wtf :p | 06:39 |
| friendishan | ed2ef ok | 06:39 |
| snowy | I am trying to get the sun jre, but even after installing the 1.6 it I still get 'java version "1.5.0" | 06:39 |
| snowy | ' after typing java -version | 06:39 |
| neer1 | mrynit: but I don't know how to do it | 06:39 |
| coreyman | how come ctrl-alt-backspace doesn't work anymore | 06:39 |
| coreyman | what should I use. | 06:39 |
| Myrtti | !language | jyg_ | 06:39 |
| ubottu | jyg_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 06:39 |
| Bob_Dole | !dontzap | 06:39 |
| ubottu | To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 06:39 |
| mrynit | neer1, what card do you have? | 06:39 |
| neer1 | mrynit: I think conxentant or something like that | 06:40 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, what's the gtk2 ubuntu look, a engine or a theme? | 06:40 |
| coreyman | sweet thx | 06:40 |
| losher | ShishKabab: scp will do local copies I think. But check out the --progress switch to rsync | 06:40 |
| mrynit | neer1, what type of computer is this? | 06:41 |
| neer1 | mrynit: compaq V3211TU | 06:41 |
| ShishKabab | losher: Thanks for the tip! I'll try it later on. | 06:41 |
| coreyman | I would like a widget to appear on my bottom panel, how? | 06:41 |
| jyg_ | So why would a fresh install not install grub at all and then not create a default/initial uses? | 06:41 |
| neer1 | mrynit: celeron | 06:41 |
| mrynit | neer1, lspci and look for something that looks like a video card | 06:41 |
| friendishan | engine ed2ef | 06:42 |
| th0r | coreyman: right click on the panel and choose Customize | 06:42 |
| th0r | coreyman: oops...choose Add | 06:42 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, and where is telling you that u need to upgrade this engine? | 06:42 |
| th0r | coreyman: and you know you can move items from one panel to another. Right click on the item and choose Move | 06:43 |
| neer1 | mrynit: there are lot of controller | 06:43 |
| ed2ef | friendishan, im asking that, because engine is a little more complicade to upgrade. The safer and easy way to do it is using the apt-get or synaptic, but u ll get not the lasted version, probably | 06:43 |
| Etherael | is there a way to make an X program display it's output as wallpaper? | 06:44 |
| neer1 | mrynit: PCI Bridge, ISA bridge, IDE interface | 06:44 |
| sleepy_cat | IRC community for office org | 06:44 |
| neer1 | mrynit: Ethernet controller, network controller | 06:44 |
| === snowy is now known as zousnow | ||
| losher | jyg_: doesn't sound right. Maybe your install bombed out before completing? You can do grub-install by hand, and add a user by hand, but who knows what else you're missing. Re-do the install? | 06:44 |
| coreyman | th0r thanks | 06:44 |
| mrynit | neer1, lspci | grep ati -i ; lspci | grep nvidia -i | 06:45 |
| jyg_ | losher, I tried, but grub isnt even in /boot. So I booted off a usb drive I have which I did an full install and copied /boot/grub over to the internal drive's root... still had issues. bleh | 06:45 |
| friendishan | ed2ef i like my new theme thanks^^ | 06:46 |
| losher | jyg_: usually an install leaves a log file behind (I forget where). You might check that for clues... | 06:46 |
| mrynit | neer1, you have to find what video card you have and find the drivers for it | 06:46 |
| friendishan | ed2eg i like my new theme thanks^^ | 06:46 |
| friendishan | ed2eg i like my new theme thanks^^ | 06:46 |

| billybigrigger_ | can someone help me with my crontab? im trying to have cron update awstats every ten minutes, but it doesnt update...but if i run the command by hand, the awstats page on my web site updates.... | 06:46 |
| ed2ef | np dude! | 06:46 |
| billybigrigger_ | 10 * * * * root /usr/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=thefrozencanuck.ca -update >/dev/null | 06:47 |
| neer1 | mrynit: unline "Network Controller" or "Ethernet Controller" nothing is written about video controller here | 06:47 |
| friendishan | floodbot1 ? | 06:47 |
| billybigrigger_ | does that command not run the /usr/lib........ command every 10 mins? | 06:47 |
| losher | jyg_: somewhere in /var/log ? | 06:47 |
| friendishan | ed2ef what does that bot mean ? | 06:47 |
| ed2ef | u send a lot of messagens making a flood | 06:47 |
| friendishan | I need to set up my gmail account on evolution mail | 06:48 |
| ed2ef | but he dont kick u, so, its cool | 06:48 |
| jyg_ | losher, looking in boyth places, seeinh nothing relevant | 06:48 |
| mrynit | neer1, what version of ubuntu did you install? | 06:48 |
| mrynit | neer1, if its a compaq computer you can try looking up the info for the computer to find out what video card it has | 06:49 |
| coldserver | In Linux, whats the standard if you want to have multiple versions of a library installed? | 06:49 |
| friendishan | I need to set up my gmail account on evolution mail how do i do that ? | 06:49 |
| blendmaster1024 | that's basically impossible, coldserver . they would interfere too much | 06:49 |
| jyg_ | losher, there's some dropping that has some info in it , something aout perm denied for /root/.pangorc' ... something in Ubiquity | 06:49 |
| Bob_Dole | lspci makes me happy, and makes my life easier, even on the odd occasion I need to support windows. | 06:50 |
| ACe | friendishan: http://tuxicity.wordpress.com/2007/03/08/howto-set-up-gmail-in-evolution-gnomes-mail-client-and-organizer/ | 06:50 |
| tank-man | coldserver, you need to setup a chroot environment | 06:50 |
| friendishan | ace i already read that but it didn't help | 06:51 |
| * Bob_Dole away-from-room/channel's again. | 06:51 | |
| losher | jyg_: not sure that's fatal. pango is optional I think. Might be better to redo the installation from scratch and watch it more closely? | 06:51 |
| ACe | friendishan I thought it was pretty straight foward...where are you lost? | 06:51 |
| friendishan | i completed that wizard befor i read anything | 06:52 |
| friendishan | so i need to start the wizard again but where ? | 06:52 |
| neer1 | mrynit: I am looking for the name of the driver | 06:52 |
| neer1 | mrynit: I mean the card | 06:52 |
| bullgard4 | [AlsaMixer] What do the control item names 'Master' and 'Master M' mean? Card='Intel82801DB-ICH4' | 06:52 |
| neil | hai | 06:52 |
| ACe | friendishan incoming mail uses googles pop server which is pop.gmail.com and uses an ssl encryption, outgoing is stmp.gmail.com and also uses ssl encryption...after putting in your username and password where it prompts you, you should be good to go | 06:53 |
| friendishan | i completed that wizard befor i read anything ace | 06:53 |
| Myrtti | ACe: special reason for recommending pop? | 06:53 |
| friendishan | ace whre do i start the wizard again | 06:53 |
| mrynit | neer1, i cant really help much any more. you could try install fedora or some other distro that has newer drivers built in. ubuntu is some what behind the times | 06:53 |
| marcos2 | some help to fix the sound recording in Ubuntu 8.10? I have a Dell Inspiron 1420 | 06:53 |
| friendishan | ace whre do i start the wizard again and delete the current configuration ? | 06:54 |
| ACe | friendishan edit -> preferences | 06:54 |
| neer1 | mrynit: it has Mobile Intel 945M Express Chipset Family Video Driver | 06:56 |
| jeevan | how is concurrency is maintained in memcache??? aegis | 06:56 |
| P4R41 | if i have 9.04 installed on an ntfs system, would i be able to modify the partition to ext4? | 06:56 |
| mrynit | neer1, google it up. i cant help you anymore | 06:56 |
| ay^ | P4R41: I doubt it | 06:56 |
| g0wda | what is the best way to partition your hard disk? | 06:56 |
| jeevan | how is concurrency is maintained in memcache??? mrynit | 06:57 |
| === Prodego_ is now known as Prodego | ||
| mrynit | jeevan, what | 06:57 |
| g0wda | one for /home?? and one for /etc?? | 06:57 |
| ay^ | g0wda: I prefer the gui in windows vista for partitioning, but is that what you mean by "best"? | 06:57 |
| blendmaster1024 | mrynit: look at this, lol... ignore the cuss please.. http://www.fuckinggoogleit.com | 06:57 |
| ed2ef | P4R41, u cant install linux on a ntfs file system | 06:57 |
| ay^ | g0wda: d'oh! I totally missunderstood your question | 06:57 |
| jyg_ | losher, i went into the advanced table, just before committing to install, and realized it was set to put the bootloader on 'hd0' .. which i sould suppose translates to /dev/sda ... i hope it did not install to the top fo the device! if it did, it wrecked my windows part... for not its set to /dev/sda2, my root | 06:57 |
| ed2ef | P4R41, what wubi does, is make a image on this partition, then format that image with a linux file system | 06:58 |
| friendishan | Ace done deleting now where do i start the wizard | 06:58 |
| lstarnes | g0wda: it's most common to use one for swap, one for /, and one for /home | 06:58 |
| ay^ | g0wda: I usually just use a / a /home and a /boot | 06:58 |
| ay^ | g0wda: ah and a swap for hibernating | 06:58 |
| ACe | friendishan: edit->preferences, then click on the add button | 06:58 |
| lstarnes | g0wda: / should be fairly large since it would then contain everything not under /home | 06:58 |
| === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo | ||
| === MaWaLe1 is now known as MaWaLe | ||
| P4R41 | ed2ef: the partition still showed up as ntfs after the install | 06:59 |
| g0wda | what's the use of using one for boot? and it will only require 100mbs i guess ;) | 06:59 |
| losher | g0wda: I like 10G for root, double the ram size for swap, separate /home. I like to keep a spare 10G root partition also | 06:59 |
| friendishan | ace ok thanks^^ | 06:59 |
| ed2ef | P4R41, u install the ubuntu using the wubi tool, right? | 06:59 |
| pegon | anyone know a tool that will tell me my motherboard and cpu temp ? | 06:59 |
| notvcjack | i know this has probably been asked a million times already and if someone could just point me to a link somewhere I would appreciate it, but I'm having issues with using Broadcom wifi in Jaunty | 06:59 |
| P4R41 | i had before, now its formatted, but yes | 06:59 |
| g0wda | well, i don't know what goes into root.... ??? | 06:59 |
| ay^ | g0wda: when it comes to sizes my installations usualy doesnt come any bigger than 20gb so thats my standard / | 06:59 |
| lstarnes | g0wda: everything | 07:00 |
| ay^ | g0wda: everything you dont make special partition for | 07:00 |
| mrynit | jeevan, why do you think i know about that stuff? | 07:00 |
| ed2ef | see, the partition still a ntfs, wubi dont even touch that | 07:00 |
| P4R41 | g0wda: one for /, one for /home, and one for swap being 2x your ram | 07:00 |
| P4R41 | yeh, it sits on top of it | 07:00 |
| ed2ef | but he makes a disk image on ur partition | 07:00 |
| ay^ | so if you dont make a /home or /boot, _everyhting_ goes into / | 07:00 |
| sizable | pegon, Try this http://www.bradtrupp.com/ubuntu-cpu-temperature.html | 07:00 |
| ed2ef | and that image is using a linux file system | 07:00 |
| ed2ef | not ntfs | 07:00 |
| ay^ | the above was for g0wda | 07:01 |
| losher | jyg_: there's a way to recover the windows booloader. Hopefully nothing else got trashed... | 07:01 |
| g0wda | i don't know wht /root is for but! | 07:01 |
| P4R41 | ok, so how can i install to the partition if wubi is sitting on top of it | 07:01 |
| ay^ | g0wda: root is "like" C: in windows-terms | 07:01 |
| g0wda | og | 07:01 |
| jyg_ | losher, i dont care about losing the windows boot loaders... i just hope that the beginning of the drive wasn't overwritten | 07:01 |
| g0wda | oh | 07:01 |
| ay^ | unless you specify otherwise you stuff will go there | 07:01 |
| ed2ef | using a disk image, its a pseudo-partition if u like to call it as this way | 07:01 |
| ay^ | g0wda: ^ | 07:02 |
| jyg_ | (which is where the windows part resides) | 07:02 |
| Lokendra | hi god morning | 07:02 |
| losher | jyg_: if it chkdisks ok, you should be fine. If not, you're screwed I think... | 07:02 |
| ed2ef | but your ntfs partition is intact, it goes like a file on this partition | 07:02 |
| jyg_ | losher, well 55% now, reinstall... guess I'll find out soon enough... the unbuntu install shoudl really assume that the boot loader is install in the /boot partition and if there is not one then in (root)/boot | 07:02 |
| notvcjack | anyone? | 07:02 |
| g0wda | but all your stuff, like i've seen gets installed in usr/lib or usr/bin and config in /etc... where does /root come in? i don't understand | 07:02 |
| Lokendra | how to install wireless driver | 07:03 |
| ay^ | notvcjack: anyone what? | 07:03 |
| Lokendra | pls help me | 07:03 |
| losher | jyg_: Ubuntu is usually pretty good about detecting existing windows installs.... | 07:03 |
| ed2ef | that's why a ubuntu(or any other distribution of gnu/linux0 installed via wubi is slow then a normal install type | 07:03 |
| notvcjack | heh, i think i have the same issue as lokendra, i'll repost... | 07:03 |
| ay^ | g0wda: too is where usr, etc and other dirs gets put | 07:03 |
| friendishan | ace i guess it's done thanks^^ | 07:03 |
| notvcjack | i know this has probably been asked a million times already and if someone could just point me to a link somewhere I would appreciate it, but I'm having issues with using Broadcom wifi in Jaunty | 07:03 |
| ACe | friendishan no problem | 07:03 |
| P4R41 | ed2ef: so can i install wubi into windows and use it to install to the other partition? | 07:04 |
| g0wda | you mean */root is where all that comes?? | 07:04 |
| ay^ | g0wda: "root" is just a term for the first "folder" in you system, the root of your folders so to speak | 07:04 |
| friendishan | ace what is smtp ? | 07:04 |
| Lokendra | my laptop mod no Dell Vostro A840 wireless driver not working | 07:04 |
| g0wda | so by root do you mean /root or just / | 07:04 |
| g0wda | ?? | 07:04 |
| ay^ | just / | 07:04 |
| mneptok | g0wda: /root is the root users home directory | 07:04 |
| ay^ | g0wda: ^ | 07:04 |
| ed2ef | P4R41, i think not, u could do it using a live cd, mounting the image somewhere then movin the files to a linux fisical partition | 07:04 |
| Lokendra | so pls how to install wireless driver | 07:05 |
| ed2ef | P4R41, but i dont think it ll wokr | 07:05 |
| ay^ | mneptok: no thats /home/root | 07:05 |
| P4R41 | thats the issue, i cant access the live cd | 07:05 |
| ed2ef | *work | 07:05 |
| Lokendra | pls help me | 07:05 |
| mneptok | ay^: no, it's not | 07:05 |
| ACe | friendishan simple mail transfer protocol | 07:05 |
| Liquidity_C | friendishan, http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMTP | 07:05 |
| ed2ef | use a liveusb | 07:05 |
| ay^ | mneptok: my bad | 07:05 |
| ed2ef | did u have a 1gb or more pendrive? | 07:05 |
| friendishan | thanks^^ | 07:06 |
| Lokendra | pls help me | 07:06 |
| mneptok | ay^: np, we all have our moments | 07:06 |
| ay^ | mneptok: specially me ;P I was for some reason thinking of guest | 07:06 |
| indus | hi folks | 07:06 |
| P4R41 | i have my t-mobile g1 which can mount my spare 1gb microsd card as a pendrive, i just don't know how to boot from usb on my system or if its possible | 07:06 |
| losher | g0wda: it's not your fault. the term "root" has at least 3 different meanings: a) just /, b) the /root directory, c) the user who is allowed to do anything | 07:06 |
| g0wda | so /root will be useless as a seperate partition? | 07:06 |
| Lokendra | my laptop mod no Dell Vostro A840 wireless driver not working | 07:06 |
| mneptok | ay^: i prescribe sleep :) | 07:06 |
| Lokendra | so pls how to install wireless driver | 07:07 |
| ziroday | P4R41: wrong place to ask | 07:07 |
| Lokendra | pls help me | 07:07 |
| ay^ | g0wda: not useless but perhaps unneccesary | 07:07 |
| Chr|s | !wireless | Lokendra | 07:07 |
| ubottu | Lokendra: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 07:07 |
| pegon | Lokendra, what wireless card you got? | 07:07 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | I think it's fatal - when i put something into my browser I get this : http://crunchbanglinux.org/pastebin/252 | 07:07 |
| P4R41 | ziroday: im not asking, im telling that its not an option | 07:07 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | #ubuntu......is it fatal? | 07:07 |
| ed2ef | P4R41, if u plug the pen drive on ur computer, and reboot and enter on the bios, in the boot section | 07:07 |
| Lokendra | intel | 07:07 |
| ay^ | g0wda: in your case, I would make a root partition (root as in just / ) and then a homepartition and swap | 07:07 |
| ed2ef | there's a option to boot from the usb² | 07:07 |
| ed2ef | ? | 07:07 |
| pegon | Lokendra, more specific please if not sure check lspci in terminal | 07:08 |
| losher | g0wda: pretty much. You really want just 3 partitions: /, /home & swap | 07:08 |
| P4R41 | ed2ef: its not there. the bios and computer is old. dell 4500s | 07:08 |
| TheFunkbomb | hello | 07:08 |

| siggi | hello | 07:08 |
| ay^ | mneptok: ha I just woke up! :( | 07:08 |
| g0wda | Lokendra: did u google it? | 07:08 |
| ziroday | ShazbotMcNasty: do killall firefox, and we don't support crunchbang or any other ubuntu derivatives here | 07:08 |
| mneptok | ay^: i prescribe caffiene | 07:08 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | oh. | 07:08 |
| jyg_ | losher, 2nd time things are cool, windows looks ok still.. thanks for the moral support :) | 07:09 |
| coreyman | I am unable to connect to secure wireless access points using knetworkmanager! Help. | 07:09 |
| losher | jyg_: great news! | 07:09 |
| ay^ | mneptok: you are indeed wise! | 07:09 |
| P4R41 | yeh, that's my predicament. i was even considering resizing my windows partition to be 700mb smaller, installing wubi onto there and then using the install to install to the linux partition | 07:10 |
| ingw3 | hello. i want to use iscsi. so if i want to share disk on linux machine - it must be NTFS or dosnt matter? | 07:10 |
| DanaG | hmm, anyone have tips to improve my boot time? | 07:10 |
| DanaG | www.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette/bootchart | 07:10 |
| mneptok | ay^: np, we all have our moments (x2) | 07:10 |
| jyg_ | losher, is there a prettier bootloader for ubuntu? :) | 07:10 |
| DanaG | er, not there yet. | 07:10 |
| ziroday | DanaG: done a reprofile of your boot? | 07:10 |
| blendmaster1024 | use ext4 i hear it lets you boot in 7 seconds if you booted in 30 | 07:10 |
| Lokendra | so pls give me comd | 07:10 |
| g0wda | i have a fat32 filesys, I want to copy it to some other place on the hard disk and the destination copy should be ext3... is it possible with gparted? | 07:10 |
| DanaG | Haven't done it lately. | 07:10 |
| ay^ | mneptok: haha (end of OT) | 07:10 |
| ziroday | DanaG: biggest speed benefits are there | 07:10 |
| P4R41 | ed2ef: do you think that'll work? | 07:10 |
| pegon | Lokendra, LSPCI | 07:10 |
| mneptok | Lokendra: what Intel chipset is it? | 07:10 |
| pegon | mneptok, I already asked him that but hes not paying attention lol | 07:11 |
| mneptok | Lokendra: pastebin the output of "lspci -vvv | grep ntel" (no quotes) | 07:11 |
| ed2ef | P4R41, idk if u ll could do that, but remeber to modify all required file(like grub,fstab or others stuffs) | 07:11 |
| Lokendra | ok | 07:11 |
| DanaG | Lots of modprobe'ing going on, too. =þ | 07:11 |
| losher | jyg_: Someone asked that eariler today. Apparently there's not really. There's some customisation you can do in grub, i.e. colors & splash, but otherwise no. | 07:12 |
| mneptok | Lokendra: most Intel chipsets Just Work(tm). why do you think you need to install a driver? | 07:12 |
| DanaG | and what's up around alsactl? | 07:12 |
| ed2ef | P4R41, well i ll have to leave, good luke with that | 07:12 |
| notvcjack | what about with a broadcom 1370 4324A-BRCM1016 using kernel 2.6.28-11general? | 07:12 |

| DanaG | I also saw the thing start Xorg... switch away... and switch back. | 07:14 |
| ariqs | I don't like stuff downloading without me telling it to! | 07:14 |
| DanaG | or so it seems. | 07:14 |
| [ucb]kevin | perhaps someone can help me with the following: windows are opening in such an initial position that the title bare is hidden behind my main ubuntu "apps place system etc.." bar -- how can I fix this? | 07:14 |
| maco | ariqs, like what? | 07:14 |
| maco | ariqs, are you referring to updates? | 07:14 |

| ubottu | notvcjack: 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) | 07:14 |
| ariqs | maco: i'm not sure what I'm referring to | 07:14 |
| ziroday | Lokendra: you might want to address you're helpers | 07:14 |
| ariqs | it does sy that a package manager is working at the top | 07:14 |
| maco | ariqs, every day it'll query the server (i think 8AM local time) to ask if there are updates available | 07:14 |
| unop_ | g0wda, you can use dd to make a copy of the filesystem | 07:14 |
| maco | ariqs, it's just asking if there are updates, then | 07:14 |
| mneptok | Lokendra: well, that's not Intel, is it? | 07:15 |
| DanaG | interesting idea: make my laptop auto-login and then auto-lock-workstation. | 07:15 |
| maco | ariqs, the default setting is that if it is told that there are updates, it'll ask you before downloading them | 07:15 |

| neer1 | ubuntu 9.04 is giving me problems | 07:16 |
| ziroday | ariqs: you can disable it by going to System > Admin > Software Sources > Updates | 07:16 |
| neer1 | unlike 8.04 which was very stable and good | 07:16 |
| notvcjack | there is nothing under wireless | 07:16 |
| losher | neer1: welcome to the club | 07:17 |
| maco | ariqs, how many repositories do you have enabled? it downloads a list of what packages there are for each repository. if you have fewer repositories (example: if you are not a developer, disable source repositories) it'll take less time | 07:17 |
| notvcjack | and there is also nothing under hardware drivers either | 07:17 |
| neer1 | losher: I have been stuck with it for the past 3 days | 07:17 |
| maco | ariqs, it then compares the list it got to the one it already had to see if anything changed | 07:17 |
| ziroday | notvcjack: what card? | 07:17 |

| indus | my cdrom doesnt work in jaunty | 07:18 |
| ziroday | ariqs: thank maco, she did all the work :) | 07:18 |
| neer1 | losher: how to roll back? | 07:18 |
| ziroday | neer1: you cannot roll back releases | 07:18 |
| notvcjack | broadcom 1370 4324A-BRCM1016 | 07:18 |
| neer1 | ziroday: so there is no way to fix this? | 07:18 |
| neer1 | ziroday: I have no cd | 07:18 |
| ariqs | ok, thanks maco too, but ziroday gave me the info I wanted ;) | 07:18 |
| losher | neer1: Er, you were supposed to do a full backup before you upgraded... | 07:18 |
| ziroday | neer1: you can reinstall, or try to fix your issues | 07:18 |
| SkinnYPuPp | I ran across a broadcom that needed sudo ifconfig eth1 up but that was in knoppix | 07:19 |
| ziroday | notvcjack: please address, what version of ubuntu? | 07:19 |
| notvcjack | 9.0l4 | 07:19 |
| notvcjack | oops.. 9.04 | 07:19 |
| neer1 | ziroday: can I connect to the internet from console though I doubt it is taking any drivers | 07:19 |
| neer1 | ziroday: it doesn't take any drivers I think | 07:20 |
| maco | ariqs, when you want to force it to check, you can do that in system -> administration -> software updates. i recommend doing that at least once a week, just to be safe with regard to security | 07:20 |
| ziroday | neer1: I have no idea what you're issues are | 07:20 |
| ziroday | notvcjack: hmm, is b43-fwcutter installed? | 07:20 |
| neer1 | ziroday: my issue is it says "couldn't allocate video memory" and | 07:20 |
| neer1 | ziroday: I am stuck with the black screen without any gui | 07:21 |
| ziroday | neer1: what graphics card and driver? | 07:21 |
| maco | ziroday, that shouldnt be needed in jaunty | 07:21 |
| notvcjack | not sure actually... i'm posting this on my winxp partition cause there is no hardline in this damn hotel room | 07:21 |
| neer1 | ziroday: intel 945 chipset I think | 07:21 |
| maco | ziroday, er...i mean...in jaunty, you dont needd to get online and get firmware. it should work ootb | 07:21 |
| ziroday | maco: oh, how come its still in the repo's then? | 07:21 |
| ziroday | notvcjack: okay, well the other way to do it is through ndiswrapper | 07:21 |
| maco | ziroday, i dont know HOW it does it, but without getting online, jockey can enable those wireless cards | 07:21 |
| ziroday | maco: ah | 07:22 |
| maco | ziroday, oh! nevermind | 07:22 |
| === am4zin is now known as amazin | ||
| maco | ziroday, i just remembered, some cards use b43, some use that special driver commissioned from broadcom. the latter dont need to get online | 07:22 |
| ziroday | maco: okay | 07:22 |
| neer1 | ziroday: would you be able to help me | 07:23 |
| maco | ziroday, forgot my roommate has the "special" one...thats why she couldnt figure out wifi on fedora :P | 07:23 |
| ziroday | notvcjack: right, well anyway. First (if not already) install the b43-fwcutter package. If that doesn't work you will need to use ndiswrapper https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper | 07:23 |
| notvcjack | yeah, i've tried that... i followed the instructions from here...https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Broadcom_BCM4311_rev_01_(ndiswrapper) | 07:23 |

| ziroday | neer1: you're lspci, xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log please | 07:24 |
| hax0r1337 | ziroday: got any ideas? | 07:24 |
| WindowSmasher | Evening all! | 07:24 |
| maco | ziroday, anything that doesnt work with b43 needs the special driver. that's why that driver exists. | 07:24 |
| neer1 | ziroday: it says "failed to allocate framebuffer, Is your videoram set too low?" | 07:25 |
| ziroday | maco: and that "special" driver is b43-fwcutter? | 07:25 |
| WindowSmasher | Anybody have any trouble with transmission (BT) downstream? | 07:25 |
| maco | ziroday, no, b43 is the usual driver. there's some other name for the special thing. | 07:25 |
| neer1 | ziroday: and also "couldn't allocate video memory" | 07:25 |
| maco | ziroday, b43-fwcutter grabs the firmware while you are online with wired internet for the b43 driver | 07:25 |
| maco | ziroday, the special thing doesnt need extra firmware downloads | 07:26 |
| ziroday | neer1: yes, I need those documents. You can do sudo apt-get install pastebinit and then use that to do pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 07:26 |
| ziroday | maco: right, and then there are those broadcom cards that don't work under either? | 07:26 |
| maco | ziroday, no. there's complete coverage, i believe | 07:26 |
| notvcjack | eh? don't tell me that! | 07:26 |
| ziroday | neer1: remembering to pass us back the URL's | 07:26 |
| notvcjack | whew! | 07:26 |
| ziroday | maco: oh | 07:26 |
| maco | ziroday, the point of the new driver from broadcom in intrepid is to cover everything that b43 doesn't | 07:27 |
| maco | ziroday, dell forced broadcom's hand on it | 07:27 |
| ziroday | notvcjack: well I would follow maco as I'm just following two year old forum posts :) | 07:27 |
| notvcjack | so I should use b43-fwcutter or ndiswrapper? or just try one and if it doesn't work, try the other? | 07:27 |
| ziroday | maco: makes sense | 07:27 |
| maco | ziroday, i'm guessing they threatened to stop using broadcom if they didnt give proper linux support ;) | 07:27 |
| maco | notvcjack, it depends which broadcom you've got | 07:27 |
| niblets_ | i have a problem trying to install tint2, anyone know why? http://crunchbanglinux.org/pastebin/250 | 07:27 |
| ziroday | niblets_: you're using crunchbang? | 07:28 |
| niblets_ | yes | 07:28 |
| niblets_ | but its still ubuntu | 07:28 |
| notvcjack | maco: I have this one - broadcom 1370 4324A-BRCM1016 | 07:28 |
| maco | notvcjack, i recommend just getting online with wired internet and using system -> administration -> hardware drivers, click enable on the wireless driver, and just let it do its thing. should be automated | 07:28 |
| ziroday | niblets_: we can't help you with unofficial ubuntu derivatives here. Sorry. | 07:28 |
| notvcjack | hmm... ok, when I get back home, I'll try that I guess | 07:28 |
| maco | notvcjack, jockey should know what to do based on which card it is | 07:28 |
| niblets_ | its an ubuntu minimal install, with pretty stuff added, so its still ubuntu. | 07:28 |
| simoncpu | an ubuntu by any other name works as sweet | 07:29 |
| ziroday | niblets_: no it is _not_ ubuntu, it has added repo's and who knows what else. And we therefore cannot support it here. Please use crunchbang's support channels | 07:29 |

| Flannel | niblets_: This is not an appropriate channel for it. Please don't. | 07:30 |
| maco | bullgard4, it means someone chose them 5-10 years ago and they cant change them because changing names on mixer elements screws things up on upgrades | 07:30 |
| maco | niblets_, we can just not answer you | 07:30 |
| notvcjack | maco: so you would actually recommend to wait until I get a hard-wired connection and try to let it do it automagically? | 07:31 |

| frankandbeans | hi everyone | 07:37 |
| swiftarrow | Hi all, Question: I'm running Xubuntu 8.10. I want to upgrade to Ubuntu (Gnome) 9.04. I have the Desktop install CD. Is it possible to upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04 via the CD? Or do I have to do a complete re-install? | 07:38 |
| neer1 | Ubuntu 9.04 sucks | 07:38 |
| friendishan | or shud i not install it | 07:38 |
| Ghoti_ | ``y7: if eth1 is getting an internet address through DHCP, your WAN traffic should pass to it automagically even if you get another, LAN, address on eth0 | 07:38 |
| maco | losher, gnome is much more popular since it's default | 07:38 |
| ariqs | ziroday: if they were treated fairly, it'd be gubuntu and kubuntu | 07:38 |
| neer1 | swiftarrow: believe me 9.04 is not at all good | 07:38 |
| swiftarrow | neer1, why do you say so? | 07:39 |
| ziroday | ariqs: not getting into that here | 07:39 |
| maco | ariqs, kubuntu didnt exist at first, that's why ubuntu doesnt have the g | 07:39 |
| Ciros | neer1: once you get the weirdness ironed out 9.04 isnt bad at all. | 07:39 |
| coreyman1 | What's a good article for laptop power saving? | 07:39 |
| frankandbeans | i have a tint2 question | 07:39 |
| ``y7 | Ghoti_: eth1 can never ping out to google.com. eth0 has the external ip address. starting firestarter doesn't help eth1 ping out. is this a nic setup issue or a firewall issue? | 07:39 |
| friendishan | neerl i think i won't upgrade then | 07:39 |
| maco | ariqs, ubuntu was the original, then kubuntu was a community project that canonical decided to hire Riddell to work on. they didnt want to change Ubuntu's name later | 07:39 |
| Ghoti_ | swiftarrow: you could probably do your dist-upgrade within Xubuntu, then apt-get install ubuntu-desktop to get gnome, and once that's live, apt-get remove xubuntu-desktop | 07:39 |
| maco | neer1, it all depends on your specific hardware | 07:39 |
| losher | maco: I would have thought so, but people (sometimes strongly) deny it, there's seem to be no authoritative figures, and not everyone runs Ubuntu | 07:39 |
| ``y7 | in other words, if my firewall isn't running, should eth1 be able to ping google.com through eth0? | 07:40 |
| ziroday | coreyman1: lesswatts.org and using powertop | 07:40 |
| maco | neer1, in my case, 9.04 is great because it doesnt crash constantly like 8.04 did | 07:40 |
| swiftarrow | Ghoti_, I'm kinda confused whether that would install all the packages that would come with 9.04? | 07:40 |
| Ghoti_ | ``y7: do you mean another PC on your LAN connected to eth1? | 07:40 |
| NvidiaUser | I agree with maco | 07:40 |
| maco | Ghoti_, that wnt remove xfce | 07:40 |
| Ciros | the only issue i had/have with 9.04 is needing to keep the 8.10 back ports | 07:40 |
| maco | neer1, but then, my wireless card was poorly supported in 8.04 and 8.10 | 07:40 |
| Ghoti_ | swiftarrow: as I understand it, the {,x,k}ubuntu-desktop metapackages are the main difference between the various flavors | 07:41 |
| maco | losher, Linux Journal's pools for popularity always have gnome more popular than kde | 07:41 |
| friendishan | is it good that i upgrade my ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 ? | 07:41 |
| ``y7 | Ghoti_, 1 pc, two nics. eth0 has an external ip, eth1 has an internal ip. i cannot ping google.com with no firewall running. Do i have to have a firewall running in order to ping google.com with my eth1 controller? | 07:41 |
| NvidiaUser | I haven't had any problems so far with 9.04 | 07:41 |
| swiftarrow | Ghoti_ ok, thanks for your help. | 07:41 |

| jussi01 | Castawayz: If you care to discus this, please join #ubuntu-ops and Ill explain | 08:36 |
| th0r | sizable: restricted codecs | 08:37 |
| spepe | Thanks. :) | 08:37 |
| spepe | So I have a problem. I have a server whit two Intel Xenon processors installed. I would like to intall Ubuntu on this server but both the x86 and amd64 versions stop a message like this: not compatible kernel use i686 kernel. | 08:37 |
| spepe | Where can I get a distribution that supports i686? | 08:37 |
| FloodBot1 | spepe: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 08:37 |
| ziroday | spepe: x86 should be i686 | 08:37 |
| ziroday | spepe: where does it say that? | 08:38 |
| sizable | th0r, Is "restricted codecs" a package I download? | 08:38 |
| spepe | I tried both versions on the main site. Still nothing. :S | 08:38 |
| th0r | !restricted | 08:38 |
| ubottu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 08:38 |
| maco | spepe, if your kernel says -generic, its i686, i think. if it says -i386, it's not | 08:38 |
| ziroday | spepe: alternate or desktop? | 08:38 |
| spepe | After I choose the install option in the main menu. | 08:38 |
| maco | *might* be i586, but i thought it was 686 | 08:38 |
| spepe | It is an IBM server. xSeries 225. | 08:39 |
| spring_morning | i'm getting a 'line is busy' in linux when trying to connection, the phone is fine, and the connection works in windows | 08:39 |
| tas | Can i preset my graphics to 320x240 if X11 does not say it as defualt eg 640x480, 1024x784 ????? or to a cusom one eg 280x90 ???? | 08:39 |
| spring_morning | just started a couple hrs ago | 08:39 |
| ziroday | spepe: I would recommend trying the 32 bit (x86) Alternate CD | 08:39 |
| spring_morning | *connect | 08:39 |
| * maco checks the kernel config | 08:39 | |
| spepe | ok Thanks. Is it on the main site? | 08:39 |
| tas | Spring_morning: Check pulse or tone on connection | 08:39 |
| swiftarrow | spring_morning, shot in the dark: try looking up modem configuration strings for your modem? That used to be an issue a few years ago, even on windows. | 08:40 |
| swiftarrow | spring_morning, can happen if the modem was made in a different country, or for a slightlly different phone system. | 08:40 |
| spring_morning | I'm using wvdial so the setup is fairly basic, i was actually connected, then d/ced | 08:40 |
| hegde | maco: fstab works but evertime i insert and remove an error that only root can do it occurs | 08:40 |
| === cyberjorge_ is now known as cyberjorge | ||
| maco | ziroday, are you on 32bit? | 08:41 |
| spring_morning | so nothing that i can think of changed during that time | 08:41 |
| tas | spring_morning: also check pause requests in the phone number, some code for linux dial to fast | 08:41 |
| meglo | mmm | 08:41 |
| spepe | ziroday: ok Thanks. :) | 08:41 |
| ziroday | maco: nope, 64bit here. But I can break out my 32bit lappy if needed | 08:41 |
| maco | hegde, can mount w/ "sudo mount" but um....system -> administration -> authorizations might be able to let hal do it automagic | 08:41 |
| hegde | maco: i have written a GUI program that shud read from a SDCARD and display the text and image files in it | 08:41 |
| tas | None " Can i preset my graphics to 320x240 if X11 does not say it as defualt eg 640x480, 1024x784 ????? or to a cusom one eg 280x90 ????" | 08:42 |
| SnowKitty | hello | 08:42 |
| maco | ziroday, i dont have a 32bit machine here, so can you look at /boot/config-* and search for 686? | 08:42 |
| spring_morning | (tas): worked fine earlier, i was connected, then d/ced, tried to r/c and ran onto this problem | 08:42 |
| ziroday | maco: on it :) | 08:42 |
| |Newton| | Hello! I need a firewall for my UNR 9.04 but which should i choose+ | 08:42 |
| spring_morning | and I'm not sure if it's important but the first reconnect try, I could actually hear the 'this line is busy' deal in my earphones | 08:42 |
| tas | Spring_morning, have you connected linux after the phone, and vise versa???? | 08:43 |
| maco | |Newton|, netfilter/iptables is always included by default. if you'd like a GUI to configure it though, firestarter should work | 08:43 |
| spring_morning | after the phone? | 08:43 |
| hegde | maco: i want my code to be such that it shud be same always | 08:43 |
| ziroday | maco: and what should I be looking for inside this? | 08:43 |
| indus | |Newton|: whats unr? | 08:43 |
| maco | indus, netbook remix | 08:43 |
| Robbie_Crash | Is there any way that I can get my ubuntu box to release/renew its dhcp address when I only have access to the router, not the actual box? | 08:43 |
| spepe | An other question. :) Where can I find that alternate CD? | 08:43 |
| hegde | maco: shud i go writing a device driver kind of thing.?> | 08:43 |
| spring_morning | (tas): i'm not sure what you mean | 08:43 |
| indus | maco: thnks | 08:43 |
| ziroday | maco: "CONFIG_ARCH_DEFCONFIG="arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig" | 08:43 |
| ziroday | " | 08:43 |
| maco | ziroday, search for 686. i dont think 686 is enabled on 64bit. thats a 32bit thing | 08:43 |
| tas | yes make a phone call from it, call your help line for the internet and then hang up, and then boot linux, plug it in and reconnect that way | 08:43 |
| maco | hegde, no! | 08:44 |
| indus | btw, why is netbook remix pretty and ubuntu still ugly? | 08:44 |
| ziroday | maco: that's the only result for i386, both i686 and i586 turned up zilck | 08:44 |
| * indus wonders\ | 08:44 | |
| spring_morning | (tas): oh, yeah. that's how I discovered the phone was working fine. at that point, I pulled out the jack and put it back in to make sure it was completely in | 08:44 |
| ziroday | indus: because the ubuntu artwork team needs your help! | 08:44 |
| maco | hegde, you either need to manually mount the card each time, or you need to go in authorizations and give hal permission to mount it iwhtout asking | 08:45 |
| |Newton| | indus: Ubuntu Notebook remix | 08:45 |
| maco | hegde, putting "user" in the mount options in fstab should also let you mount without sudo | 08:45 |
| |Newton| | maco: can other people on the network as default :O? | 08:45 |
| jyg_ | When I'm not logged into susped-to-ram works fine, but after I log in, to any acocunt, suspend causing my system to hang | 08:45 |
| maco | |Newton|, what? | 08:45 |
| spring_morning | been googling the problem but no luck with a similar problem | 08:45 |
| tas | i had the same problem about 8 months ago, mine was a fast dial, eg 28*98*33*90***1298 | 08:45 |
| jyg_ | any ideas? | 08:45 |
| indus | ziroday: they do? but iam not an artist | 08:45 |
| hegde | maco: nice two options then :) thanks i will try now... :) | 08:45 |
| dragoncorp | anyone here know how to add a line to the grub boot to make vista selectable after installing ubuntu in a different harddrive, it whiped out the old boot info obviously but i need to be able to use vista or ubuntu, (vista installed first) then (ubuntu installed on a different harddrive) | 08:45 |
| indus | ziroday: do they like, need money? i can give them | 08:46 |
| indus | :) | 08:46 |
| |Newton| | maco: you know people can see eachother on the same network sometimes.. can people see my computer as default | 08:46 |
| maco | |Newton|, iptables is there by default. it is set to ACCEPT all. you can configure it with firestarter (easier) or guarddog (more options, more confusing). or you can use ufw as a simple text interface | 08:46 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: please pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst and sudo fdisk -l | 08:46 |
| tas | Your not getting a modem is busy? just a line is busy? | 08:46 |
| maco | |Newton|, well of course they can do a broadcast ping and see what IP addresses are taken... | 08:46 |
| indus | maco: no firestarter not being maintained now ! | 08:46 |
| ziroday | indus: you can change the ubuntu desktop around to look however you want | 08:46 |
| spring_morning | (tas): not doing any fast dialing... yeah, line is busy | 08:46 |
| indus | maco: use gufw | 08:46 |
| maco | |Newton|, i mean, if your computer responds to pings (which it should!) it'll reply to the broadcast ping | 08:46 |
| spring_morning | it's blowing my mind as you can see | 08:47 |
| indus | graphical frontend to ufw | 08:47 |
| |Newton| | maco: ok :) does it make any difference that i am using OpenDNS | 08:47 |
| Robbie_Crash | Is there any way that I can get my ubuntu box to release/renew its dhcp address when I only have access to the router, not the actual box? My PC is retaining its old IP which is on a different IP range than my router now uses, so while I have remote access to my router, I cannot SSH into the PC and unlike the Windows/Mac boxes, my Ubuntu box for some reason refuses to update unless I either reboot it, or make it r | 08:47 |
| cyberjorge | how do i install posgres with JDBC4? in ubuntu 8.10? | 08:47 |
| cyberjorge | this won't work: sudo apt-get install postgresql-8.2 libpg-java | 08:47 |
| |Newton| | maco: yes but i am thinking about people can see my files | 08:47 |
| maco | |Newton|, but ubuntu does NOT have any services by default running, so itd show up as if nothing were open if you did a portscan | 08:47 |
| rbo_ | hi! `/etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart` doesn't restart my audio. Why? 'xine was unable to initialize any audio drivers.' in Amarok after 'Lock Screen' | 08:47 |
| sidh | greetings everybody | 08:47 |
| maco | |Newton|, no, you'd need to have NFS or SAMBA setup and have it set to share a folder | 08:47 |
| maco | indus, tell |Newton| :P | 08:47 |
| |Newton| | maco: ok :) just installed firestarter! | 08:47 |
| dragoncorp | ok give me a second zeroday | 08:48 |
| tas | PM Me Spring and i will do a quick search for you and nail this down for you | 08:48 |
| spring_morning | (tas): at this point I'm not sure what to check anymore and that's about the extent of my abilities heh | 08:48 |
| Cyanide_ | it's possible delete the edges of the rectangle os grub? it's possible delete the information help you see inside grub? | 08:48 |
| sidh | do you know when installing ubuntu if it is possible to leave the MBR untouched by the install process | 08:48 |
| maco | |Newton|, indus says firestarter's unmaintained and that gufw's better | 08:48 |
| spring_morning | alright | 08:48 |
| maco | |Newton|, i'm apparently outdate | 08:48 |
| indus | |Newton|: Use gufw a graphical front end to ufw (uncomplicated firewall ) in ubuntu by default now | 08:48 |
| DidYouL2BanIdent | seriously you gotta ban the identd | 08:48 |
| DidYouL2BanIdent | to do it right | 08:48 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh probably, but you wouldn't be able to boot into it? | 08:48 |
| |Newton| | also in the notebook remix version | 08:48 |
| jyg_ | hmm when I suspend, when not logged in, I get a message 'alsa shutting down", but when logged into i do not see it, the system just hangs | 08:48 |
| maco | rbo_, "sudo alsa force-reload" to reload the drivers | 08:48 |
| sidh | Robbie_Crash: i use GAG for the MBR | 08:48 |
| |Newton| | indus: what should i right in terminal then? sudo apt-get install gufw and what more? | 08:48 |
| dragoncorp | zeroday here is grub http://pastebin.com/d696061aa | 08:48 |
| indus | |Newton|: Install gufw | 08:49 |
| sidh | Robbie_Crash: i want ubuntu's grub to install on the root partition | 08:49 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: and sudo fdisk -l? | 08:49 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh I'm pretty sure there's an option in either standard or advanced install to not install a boot loader | 08:49 |
| dragoncorp | ziroday http://pastebin.com/d7d8f87e0 | 08:50 |
| indus | |Newton|: maco:Actually ufw is a cli front end for iptables ,gufw adds a gui to it | 08:50 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh as in /grub? or just on the same logical partition? | 08:50 |
| Robbie_Crash | or primary, whatever. | 08:50 |
| indus | !ufw | 08:50 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ufw | 08:50 |
| indus | dumbo | 08:50 |
| maco | indus, how does that differ from what i said? | 08:50 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: I presume sda5 is your windows install? | 08:50 |
| indus | :P | 08:50 |
| Petfrogg | hello | 08:50 |
| indus | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFirewall | 08:51 |
| sidh | Robbie_Crash: i mean on the /boot partition | 08:51 |
| Petfrogg | how do check when i installed ubuntu? | 08:51 |
| dragoncorp | ziroday: i believe so its the only other internal hdd | 08:51 |
| sidh | (as i dont make special boot partition, it is / partition) | 08:51 |
| lesshaste | anyone on jaunty care to do "man bash" and then search for "ulimit" and tell me what it says for "-m" ? | 08:51 |
| Petfrogg | i have now updated it and updated but today i started to wonder when i installed it.. 8 ) | 08:51 |
| rbo_ | maco: Cheerz! | 08:51 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: okay modify your menu.lst to look like http://pastebin.com/f1f5ab42 | 08:51 |
| vigo | gufw is an up to dare package, sirta, Firestarter is a few or couple of years back, but they are both GUI frontends to iptables, , I like gufw, I also recommend SELinux or some BSD things. Is still the WWW/Internet, so make backups no matter what. | 08:51 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh, then when setting it up in the installer, don't specify a different partition for /boot | 08:52 |
| sidh | Robbie_Crash: i want grub to choose the kernel I boot, but i don't want it install on the MBR, i really don't want that | 08:52 |
| maco | indus, i still dont see how thats any different than me saying that ufw was a simple text frontend to iptables (it is. its text. it's simpler than iptables syntax. and it configures iptables....) | 08:52 |
| vigo | I need a lighted keyboard,,, | 08:52 |
| dragoncorp | ziroday: should i copy and paste that one or change it to look like yours? | 08:52 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: you just need to add the last few lines | 08:52 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh, so you want to have your normal boot loader, with an option in it to boot to grub, and then have grub load for partition choosing? | 08:53 |
| Robbie_Crash | er, kernel choosing rather | 08:53 |
| sidh | Robbie_Crash: i install a four booting systems | 08:53 |
| indus | maco: sorry i didnt read ur earlier post | 08:53 |
| sidh | for that | 08:53 |
| |Newton| | indus: uhm is it the thing under administration called firewall configuration? | 08:54 |
| sidh | each OS has its own launcher installed on their partition | 08:54 |
| indus | |Newton|: yeah | 08:54 |
| dragoncorp | thank you ziroday | 08:54 |
| |Newton| | indus: i just installed gufw but i dont know if thats an old shortcut | 08:54 |
| |Newton| | indus: ok i just enabled it :) it that enough | 08:54 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: lets see if it'll work first :) | 08:54 |
| sidh | at the boot process | 08:54 |
| kyledr | i tried to set the resolution in xorg.conf to 1366x768 so it would display properly on my TV, but it only does that resolution when the TV's not plugged in, otherwise it's 1680xwhatever!!! | 08:54 |
| sidh | GAG ask me which OS i want to launch | 08:54 |
| sidh | i choose | 08:54 |
| syntax\ | mikechelen: its not freezing on mplayer | 08:54 |
| indus | |Newton|: i have no idea about networking so now its your headache :) | 08:54 |
| kyledr | how do i get it to show at 1366x768 only on the TV? | 08:55 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh, ok. I get it. | 08:55 |
| indus | maco: yah you are right about ufw | 08:55 |
| mikechelen | syntax\, what video card do you have? | 08:55 |
| sidh | then i the OS loader ask me if there are options | 08:55 |
| indus | maco: but i didnt read full conversation | 08:55 |
| |Newton| | indus: hehe ok :) i just enabled it and as default "incoming traffic" is disabled so it looks good | 08:55 |
| syntax\ | nvidia mikechelen | 08:55 |
| dragoncorp | ziroday: ill try it now thanks | 08:55 |
| syntax\ | mikechelen: GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 | 08:56 |
| indus | |Newton|: Ya i guess now you need to set 'rules' !etc i believe | 08:56 |
| maco | |Newton|, since there are no services listening on any ports at all by default, that makes 0 difference anyway | 08:56 |
| vigo | Is there a GUI for 8,04 LTS server, I think I saw a code line, install grub or something, I just need a server to do some simpleish FTP/Wepbage stuff, so is there a GUI for the server releases? | 08:56 |
| sidh | Robbie_Crash: GAG is for me the most proper way to have a loader on the MBR | 08:56 |
| indus | |Newton|: hey newton is not supposed to ask so many questions, and iam not einstein :D | 08:56 |
| sidh | it really installs on the first 512 Bytes | 08:56 |
| maco | vigo, servers dont generally use GUIs....but um...maybe you'd like webmin? it's a browser-based way to configure server stuff | 08:56 |
| |Newton| | !indus no no im his stupid uncle :D | 08:56 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:56 |
| mikechelen | syntax\, have you got proprietary drivers enabled? vlc might be having issues with acceleration | 08:56 |
| sidh | at the opposite of Grub | 08:56 |
| vigo | maco: Thank you | 08:57 |
| syntax\ | i guess so | 08:57 |
| syntax\ | compiz and emerald are working ok.. | 08:57 |
| * indus lunch | 08:57 | |
| indus | dam | 08:57 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh, there's probably a way to do it. But I don't know how. Sorry. | 08:57 |
| |Newton| | indus! i cant se it in the taskbar but is it always running when it is enabled? | 08:57 |
| indus | |Newton|: just go to preferences and enable task bar (its probably in some other bar having beer) | 08:58 |
| mikechelen | syntax\, maybe try disabling compiz and see if it affects vlc | 08:58 |
| kyledr | why does xorg choose the wrong resolution only when i have my tv plugged in to my laptop? | 08:58 |
| maco | |Newton|, ufw just feeds rules to iptables at startup. that's *all* it does | 08:58 |
| syntax\ | mikechelen: ok.. | 08:58 |
| maco | |Newton|, gufw tells ufw what rules to feed to iptables at startup | 08:58 |
| maco | |Newton|, iptables should always be running | 08:59 |
| |Newton| | maco: so what should i do now :D? | 08:59 |
| indus | maco: yes he got that i think :) | 08:59 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh, in the ubuntu forums there's a post that says that the alternate install cd gives you the option of where to install grub, but the normal install cd by default installs to mbr | 08:59 |
| maco | |Newton|, no, there is no icon to show that it's running cuz well...firewalls are always there... | 08:59 |
| indus | gufw> ufw>calls mother iptables | 08:59 |
| Robbie_Crash | Is there any way that I can get my ubuntu box to release/renew its dhcp address when I only have access to the router, not the actual box? My PC is retaining its old IP which is on a different IP range than my router now uses, so while I have remote access to my router, I cannot SSH into the PC and unlike the Windows/Mac boxes, my Ubuntu box for some reason refuses to update unless I either reboot it, or make it r | 08:59 |
| |Newton| | maco: ok then i will do like always.. nothing | 08:59 |
| indus | maco: |Newton|:you can have an icon in taskbar if u wish | 09:00 |
| AzizLight | can somebody help me make my sound work please? :S I have an Audigy SE that just refuses to play sound... | 09:00 |
| maco | |Newton|, now you can configure the rules you want using gufw. but seriously, if youve got no services, blocking inbound isn't actually doing anything since nothing was listening to accept packets anyway | 09:00 |
| Robbie_Crash | If I turn off the port that the box is attached to, and then turn it back on... Mayhap that'll work. | 09:00 |
| dragoncorp | ziroday: it gave me a error | 09:00 |
| |Newton| | maco: indus: ok :) ty! have to go but thank you very much | 09:00 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: what was the error? | 09:00 |
| maco | |Newton|, and i dont think ufw is advanced enough to setup outbound rules (*sigh*) | 09:00 |
| dragoncorp | ziroday: i have ubuntu installed on primare IDE drive and vista installed on secondary sata drive but vista installed first could that be a problem? | 09:01 |
| sidh | Robbie_Crash: do you have access to your ubuntu box | 09:01 |
| dragoncorp | and the boot file is on the sata drive for grub | 09:01 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: hmm, no as I followed the fdisk output. What was the error? | 09:01 |
| sidh | if not , you should add a route on your router in order to join your ubuntu by ssh | 09:01 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh, nope. I've got access to two Windows boxes, and the router. But the Ubuntu box I need to get online is inaccessible. | 09:01 |
| spepe | Thanks for the help! Bye! :) | 09:01 |
| dragoncorp | ziroday: as i am not intelligent enough to copy it down.... lmao | 09:01 |
| sidh | the route would be in the ubuntu IP range | 09:02 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: if you could that would be really helpful | 09:02 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh, the box is using 192.168.1.1 as its gateway, but the router is 192.168.2.1 now. | 09:02 |
| MamaJumbo | m | 09:03 |
| sidh | oops i'm telling bullsh.t sorry | 09:03 |
| Robbie_Crash | I guess I could flip the box back to 192.168.1.1 and then do dhclient renew after a 5 minute sleep, set the router back to .2.1 | 09:03 |
| Robbie_Crash | hmm, brbr | 09:03 |
| sidh | the ubuntu needs to know the default route | 09:04 |
| sidh | to get outside | 09:04 |
| sidh | without changing anything on ubuntu (you can not access for the moment | 09:04 |
| sidh | the on ly thing i see is changing temporarily the local IP of the router in order to match the same subnet as ubuntu | 09:05 |
| sidh | then you could join in | 09:05 |
| sidh | s/in/it | 09:05 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: in channel please, and your fdisk output said it was the second partition on the first drive | 09:06 |
| sidh | while this time , you won't be able to join the windows box anymore | 09:06 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: wait, so which hard drive is ubuntu installed on? | 09:06 |
| dragoncorp | ziroday: ubuntu is installed on the primary ide drive | 09:06 |
| === Guest10877 is now known as Phlexonance | ||
| ziroday | dragoncorp: okay, and vista? | 09:07 |
| dragoncorp | ziroday: vista is installed on the secondary SATA drive there is only one partition on each drive | 09:07 |
| sidh | btw does the alternate cd offers the same gnome desktop as the default ubuntu CD ? | 09:07 |
| ziroday | dragoncorp: okay, then yes in that case try hd(1,0) | 09:07 |
| ziroday | sidh: yep! | 09:07 |
| sidh | ok thanks; i download it then | 09:07 |
| ziroday | sidh: the installer is just different | 09:08 |
| sidh | ok thank you | 09:08 |

| Robbie_Crash | Well, that did not work. :( | 09:12 |
| Im | You know how ubuntu is maintained until a certain date, does that mean updates? | 09:12 |
| ziroday | Im: it means updates, but not new programs unless an SRU is filed | 09:12 |
| Im | Or does it just stop working? | 09:12 |
| ziroday | !eol | Im | 09:13 |
| ubottu | Im: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 09:13 |
| Im | After that certain date | 09:13 |
| Phlexonance | something strange is happening to my ubuntu 8.04, all of a sudden I can't use opera anymore, it freezes even with no open tab, I reinstalled it and get the same error, also my xchat suddenly lost it's servlist_.conf . I am afraid that I have a filesystemproblem, how can I detect such? | 09:13 |
| fung_ | I'm tryign to watch a video but right when it loads I'm kicked out to the login screen | 09:13 |
| fung_ | Why is that happening?? | 09:13 |
| ziroday | Im: yep! | 09:13 |
| fung_ | it's a 720p video .mkv and I'm on a laptop running kubuntu 9.04 | 09:14 |
| Im | Oh ok so it WONT stop working after say, 2010? | 09:14 |
| pepe | hey | 09:14 |
| ozzmosis | Phlexonance: run opera from the terminal .. see if there are any errors output to the console | 09:14 |
| [ucb]kevin | perhaps someone can help me with the following: windows are opening in such an initial position that the title bare is hidden behind my main ubuntu "apps place system etc.." bar -- how can I fix this? | 09:14 |
| Phlexonance | Im, it may work afterwards too, it "just" won't be secure to be online | 09:14 |
| ozzmosis | Phlexonance: also check $HOME/.xsession-errors | 09:15 |
| P4R41 | yeesh, i hope this crazy set up im making finally works | 09:15 |
| ozzmosis | Phlexonance: might give you a few clues | 09:15 |
| Phlexonance | ozzmosis, yes there are errors, want me to query them to you? | 09:15 |
| ozzmosis | Phlexonance: pastebin | 09:15 |
| ziroday | Im: it will still work, but you will stop getting updates | 09:15 |

| === fitria_ainun is now known as pink_razta | ||
| ozzmosis | [ucb]kevin: I "fixed" that by enabling auto-hide on the top menu | 09:16 |
| ziroday | imbezol: and you will find it hard to get support and updating won't work etc | 09:16 |
| P4R41 | mount a microsd card with the livecd installed by unetbootin thru my g1 phone and use the cdrom-detect/try-usb=true option to avoid the I/O errors caused when i try to boot off the live cd...:X | 09:16 |
| ozzmosis | Phlexonance: those don't look too serious | 09:17 |
| useruseruser | hey gays | 09:17 |
| iceroot | how to search all *.tex files in one directory for the string "xml-grund" on the shell? | 09:17 |
| Phlexonance | ozzmosis, I found some errors in .xsession-errors which might be relevant, gimme a second | 09:17 |

| Robbie_Crash | is there a way to shutdown a linux box for 10 minutes and have it boot back up automatically after that? | 09:20 |
| ozzmosis | coreyman1: and be sure it's a text file | 09:20 |
| ozzmosis | coreyman1: #!/bin/bash should work too | 09:20 |
| Robbie_Crash | useruseruser go bug people on efnet | 09:20 |
| sidh | Robbie_Crash: no but you can tell it to reboot in 10 minutes | 09:22 |
| coreyman1 | ozzmosis when i click the file it does nothing | 09:22 |
| ozzmosis | Phlexonance: hmm, nothing obvious there | 09:22 |
| Robbie_Crash | sidh yeah, I need to get my router to shut down for a few minutes, so that my linux box tries to renew its IP | 09:22 |
| P4R41 | Robbie_Crash: you can probably set an autoboot time in the bios 10 min from now | 09:23 |
| Phlexonance | ozzmosis, I'll try the #opera for more specific help, but what would make my xchat loose it's server settings? | 09:23 |
| [ucb]kevin | ozzmosis, thanks for the suggestion -- however its more of a "band-aide" than a soln. | 09:23 |
| vigo | coreyman1: here> http://propellerheadadmin.com/tutorials/ubuntu/19-create-a-keyboard-shortcut-to-launch-a-terminal , I am not certain if you can actually make a desktop icon, sure seems like one can. | 09:23 |
| myself | anyone know a good download manager for ubuntu that can queue multiple mediafire downloads? | 09:23 |
| myself | a debian package ? | 09:24 |
| myself | preferrably | 09:24 |
| ozzmosis | [ucb]kevin: yeah | 09:24 |
| vigo | myself: Jigido or something like that. | 09:24 |
| myself | hmmm | 09:25 |
| coreyman1 | vigo I'm just trying to create a script that will run in terminal when I click it | 09:25 |
| ozzmosis | coreyman1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/176246/ | 09:25 |
| ozzmosis | coreyman1: that works for me | 09:25 |
| myself | jigdo | 09:26 |
| myself | you know if that works good with mediafire? | 09:26 |
| vigo | coreyman1: You could try System>Prefs>Main Menu , and work it from there | 09:26 |
| ozzmosis | Phlexonance: bug in x-chat? dunno .. I use irssi | 09:26 |
| coreyman1 | ozzmosis yea that doesnt do anything either, i guess my settings are wrong? | 09:28 |
| Phlexonance | ozzmosis, I'll worry when something else happens, right now I'm busy (handymen @ home), thx, cya | 09:28 |
| ozzmosis | coreyman1: I guess so... | 09:28 |
| coreyman1 | under what setting would executing be under? | 09:29 |
| enos76 | coreyman1: beware, /bin/sh is not a bash shell but a lighter clone (dash). Not every bash feature works on it | 09:29 |
| ozzmosis | enos76: freebsd habit | 09:30 |
| vigo | coreyman1: I just dragged mine to desktop, it works | 09:30 |
| coreyman1 | I'm in the new KDE | 09:31 |
| coreyman1 | so i guess this is kde specific | 09:31 |
| coreyman1 | so i'll go ask in kubuntu | 09:31 |
| g0wda | hi all, i just installed jaunty on an all ext4 disk... I installed mpeg-ugly avi plugins, but movie playes plays stuff 20times slower... it's reiculous | 09:31 |

| grigris | hi i need some help pls | 09:32 |
| grigris | any one for help? | 09:32 |
| ozzmosis | grigris: just ask | 09:32 |
| grigris | to help me? | 09:32 |
| grigris | ok | 09:32 |
| indus | grigris: i will try help :) | 09:33 |
| coreyman1 | !ask | 09:33 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 09:33 |
| grigris | i want to help the ubuntu and i want to make upgrade the ubuntu 9.04 to new one 9.10 | 09:33 |
| coreyman1 | Yea, noone in kubuntu is answering, anyone know why I would not be able to execute shell scripts by just clicking in the new KDE. | 09:33 |
| indus | grigris: 9.10 is in alpha status do u know? | 09:34 |
| ozzmosis | coreyman1: maybe it's a feature | 09:34 |
| rohit | coreyman1 ~ What happens when you click on the scripts ? | 09:34 |
| coreyman1 | rohit nothing. | 09:34 |
| ozzmosis | coreyman1: although right-click should give you some hints | 09:34 |
| zebulon_ | are they executable? | 09:34 |
| coreyman1 | its executable | 09:34 |
| coreyman1 | sudo chmod +x filename | 09:34 |
| indus | grigris: 9.04 is the latest public release | 09:34 |
| rohit | coreyman1 ~ And it runs via shell ? | 09:34 |
| grigris | i know that i want to help ubuntu to make the 9.10 with help to give back any bugs | 09:34 |
| coreyman1 | yeeeea | 09:35 |

| simoncpu | yikes | 09:36 |
| simoncpu | it seems that xmms no longer has a ui... | 09:36 |
| simoncpu | do i need to install a separate client or something? | 09:36 |
| simoncpu | what's happening with the world? | 09:36 |
| simoncpu | first it was vmware, now xmms? :p | 09:36 |
| zebulon_ | ui is overrated | 09:36 |
| simoncpu | text-based is overrated | 09:37 |
| ziroday | simoncpu: take a look at audacious | 09:37 |
| rohit | Has anyone tried Songbird ? | 09:37 |
| joakimk | All video apps (VLC, Totem and Mplayer, at least) on my ubuntu8 install crash with error message, "X11 error: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation". I've googled it, only to learn it's most likely an Xorg/video hardware problem. But it seems to be a very common problem -- can anyone please help? :) | 09:37 |
| ozzmosis | rohit: yep | 09:37 |
| vigo | grigiris: Make a backup of anything that you feel is important, or backup everything, then make backups of the Alpha as you use it and find ore fix errors on it to help the developers. | 09:37 |
| zebulon_ | yeah i like songbird | 09:37 |
| simoncpu | ziroday: oki, i'll explore that | 09:37 |
| ziroday | joakimk: what card, driver and version of ubuntu? | 09:37 |
| rohit | Well for some strange reason Songbird does not display album artwork stored in the same folder as folder.jpg :( | 09:38 |
| ozzmosis | rohit: songbird was a bit too bloaty for me .. had a decent UI though. minus one star for not supporting drag and drop though. | 09:38 |
| === carlos is now known as Guest3029 | ||

| roobot3 | hey, how do i run ubuntu in text mode without uninstalling the gui? | 09:39 |
| roobot3 | ubuntu 9 | 09:39 |
| indus | grigris: i suggest you download aplha 1 then install it on a separate partition | 09:39 |
| joakimk | ziroday: Ubuntu 8.10. The video driver is "ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver" for a X1300 Radeon card | 09:39 |
| simoncpu | uh... | 09:39 |
| rohit | ozzmosis ~ Have you tried version 1.1.2 ? It's pretty fast ... | 09:39 |
| ziroday | joakimk: okay, and you're running compiz? | 09:39 |
| joakimk | ziroday: yes | 09:39 |
| simoncpu | songbird's screenshots look like itunes | 09:39 |
| Robbie_Crash | roobot3 install ubuntu server | 09:39 |
| infinityxi | it is similar looking | 09:39 |
| roobot3 | i have already desktop | 09:39 |
| ziroday | joakimk: in a terminal do metacity --replace & disown and then try play a video | 09:39 |
| zebulon_ | i think that's deliberate | 09:39 |
| infinityxi | i prefer the other skins though | 09:40 |
| roobot3 | i will not uninstall | 09:40 |
| simoncpu | does songbird integrates with ipod too? | 09:40 |
| simoncpu | or with creative xen | 09:40 |
| infinityxi | yeah | 09:40 |
| Robbie_Crash | roobot3 uninstall X and Gnome | 09:40 |
| infinityxi | well i know with ipod | 09:40 |
| infinityxi | not sure about the xen | 09:40 |
| simoncpu | i mean, zen, not xen... | 09:40 |
| zebulon_ | wish we had something similar to Itunes's podcast directory on ubuntu | 09:40 |
| === Guest3029 is now known as carlitros82 | ||
| ozzmosis | rohit: I don't remember which version .. it was whichever apt-get downloaded for me a few days ago :) rhythmbox does what I need | 09:40 |

| rohit | I think it should work with zen ... | 09:40 |
| * simoncpu whacks himself for confusing an mp3 player with a hypervisor | 09:40 | |
| joakimk | ziroday: what was that? Seems to work | 09:40 |
| ziroday | joakimk: working? | 09:40 |
| Robbie_Crash | or change your startup options to not launch X | 09:40 |
| joakimk | ziroday: yes | 09:41 |
| roobot3 | is there no way to run it in init mode 3 | 09:41 |
| infinityxi | songbird is overall awesome | 09:41 |
| joakimk | :) | 09:41 |
| roobot3 | or whatever | 09:41 |
| infinityxi | i even bought a couple of shirts | 09:41 |
| ziroday | joakimk: I disabled compiz, its a known issue. Its gone with jaunty. If you want to stick with intrepid you might want to install fusion-icon which will allow you to easily switch between compiz and metacity. You will need to use metacity to play video | 09:41 |
| cfedde | I'm happy with rhythmbox's podcast feature. | 09:42 |
| joakimk | ziroday: OH! Nice!! The crappy compiz window switcher is also finally gone! :D | 09:42 |
| simoncpu | okaaaaaay | 09:42 |
| simoncpu | how do i install this thing | 09:42 |
| rohit | I use either Banshee or Songbird both are nice - I never liked Rythmbox | 09:42 |
| * simoncpu browses the archive for install scripts | 09:42 | |
| infinityxi | i like banshee | 09:42 |
| ayiez | chat | 09:42 |
| ziroday | joakimk: well if you want to disable compiz permanently you can do that too... | 09:42 |
| infinityxi | as a native gnome media player | 09:42 |
| joakimk | ziroday: hmm... any reason not to? ;) | 09:43 |
| rohit | simoncpu ~ Get the latest version from here - http://www.getdeb.net/app/Songbird | 09:43 |
| Robbie_Crash | roobot3 you just want a terminal, not with a GUI? | 09:43 |
| ziroday | joakimk: nope, if you like compiz better then its absolutely fine | 09:43 |
| joakimk | ziroday: so, what I just did is just until I reboot? | 09:43 |
| ziroday | joakimk: thats correct. Go to System > Appearance > Desktop Effects > None | 09:43 |
| simoncpu | rohit: i've already downloaded it :) | 09:43 |
| simoncpu | aha! | 09:43 |
| simoncpu | songbird-bin | 09:43 |
| roobot3 | i want to make it boot on text mode only and if i do startx it will run | 09:44 |
| roobot3 | the gui | 09:44 |
| joakimk | ziroday: Nice. Thanks a bunch! Btw, is this stuff better in Ubuntu9? My laptop keeps suggesting I upgrade | 09:44 |
| [hR] | If I want to use a usb wireless instead of my built in card how can remove it and make my usb wlan0 instead of wlan1 | 09:44 |
| rohit | robot3 ~ so you don't want gdm to start ... | 09:45 |
| ayiez | chat irc | 09:45 |
| ziroday | joakimk: it depends, in 9.04 you can't use the fglrx driver anymore and instead use the ati driver which is better in some places but worse in others | 09:45 |
| joakimk | ziroday: ...and, if I click "upgrade", all my files (home dir) is safe? Also, I have a dual boot (with XP) -- the partition isn't touched, neither? | 09:45 |
| ayiez | sudo | 09:45 |
| rohit | robot3 ~ I think you will need to modify you're xinit.rc script | 09:45 |

| roobot3 | as i saied | 09:48 |

| [hR] | SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory | 09:49 |
| Robbie_Crash | roobot3 did you read the thread I referenced to you? | 09:49 |
| simoncpu | songbird doesn't have an equalizer.... i can't boost the bass | 09:49 |
| Robbie_Crash | simoncpu, in my experience songbird is all hype and little substance. | 09:50 |
| rohit | simoncpu ~ it's expected in the next release :D | 09:50 |
| simoncpu | ah... | 09:50 |
| Robbie_Crash | Is there any way that I can get my ubuntu box to release/renew its dhcp address when I only have access to the router, not the actual box? My PC is retaining its old IP which is on a different IP range than my router now uses, so while I have remote access to my router, I cannot SSH into the PC and unlike the Windows/Mac boxes, my Ubuntu box for some reason refuses to update unless I either reboot it, or make it r | 09:51 |
| rohit | simoncpu ~ Have you tried Banshee - it's got an equalizer :D | 09:51 |
| [hR] | Whats the command to restart networking? | 09:51 |
| simoncpu | rohit: hmmm... i'll explore that | 09:51 |
| Robbie_Crash | I've tried reverting the router to the old IP, but I still cannot connect to the box, that way. Rebooting the router does not make the box pick up a new IP. | 09:51 |
| indus | [hR]: sudo /etc/init.d/network restart | 09:52 |
| simoncpu | Robbie_Crash: can you physically turn off the box? | 09:52 |
| [hR] | thanks | 09:52 |
| indus | [hR]: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 09:52 |
| simoncpu | or physically press the reset button? | 09:52 |
| [hR] | yeh i did that | 09:52 |
| Robbie_Crash | simoncpu nope, the box is about 200 miles away and there won't be anyone there for at least a day | 09:52 |
| indus | [hR]: then its done | 09:53 |
| simoncpu | hmmm... i thought DHCP leases expire after a few hours... | 09:53 |
| [hR] | yeh I think i need to reboot because my changes didn't take effect | 09:53 |
| indus | [hR]: sure | 09:54 |
| simoncpu | Robbie_Crash: how many interfaces does your router have? | 09:54 |
| [hR] | modified sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 09:54 |
| [hR] | but its not working | 09:54 |
| simoncpu | maybe you can configure another interface to have the same range as your box | 09:54 |
| simoncpu | or... | 09:54 |
| simoncpu | try vlan | 09:54 |
| * simoncpu only tried vlans on freebsd, but believes that it can be done in linux | 09:54 | |

| Robbie_Crash | simoncpu I tried resetting the whole box to use the old IP range, but still nothing. | 09:57 |
| simoncpu | yikes... i don't know about specific linksys products... i thought you can ssh into your box or something :) | 09:57 |
| rohit | smokewon ~ I don't think linux has a defragmentation tool:) | 09:57 |
| Robbie_Crash | simoncpu I've got SSH and webGUI access to it/ | 09:57 |
| simoncpu | Robbie_Crash: maybe your box no longer has an IP... | 09:57 |
| Robbie_Crash | simoncpu yeah :( which one would hope would make it ask for one when the router powered back up, but the frakin' thing never does | 09:58 |
| rohit | jussi01 ~ zip -r name_of_file.zip files | 09:58 |
| jussi01 | rohit: thanks! | 09:58 |
| Robbie_Crash | this is why I need an IP PDU | 09:59 |
| ozzmosis | smokewon: doubt it. there's a windows defragger called jkdefrag which seems decent. | 09:59 |

I installed a bunch of stuff and suddenly the keypresses started to repeat for the multimedia keys, so when I pressed mute, Ubuntu started muting and unmuting over and over again, blocking every other keyboard input. I found no solution so I reinstalled ubuntu today, and after a COMPLETELY FRESH install I get | 10:09 |
| shortlord | the same behaviour now out of the box! oO Does anyone know a solution? | 10:09 |

| shortlord | Piet, nothing special, but now it does not even work after a fresh install... Is there the possibility that some program I installed yesterday changed some harware settings or anything else that would be persistent between 2 different installs? or is it definitely something related to my keyboard? | 10:13 |
| dhahfhfhahfa | a | 10:14 |

| brevolution | no idea what changed to cause this behavior....any help would be much appreciated | 10:14 |
| shortlord | Piet, I did not do any package changes today | 10:14 |

| shortlord | Piet, it is a fresh installed and the multimedia keys were broken ootb | 10:15 |
| Piet | shortlord: for all we know, it could just be that your keyboard batteries are getting empty | 10:15 |
| shortlord | Lokek, yep, the keypresses only start when I press them, when I kill and restart X everything works normal again until I press one of the 6 multimedia keys | 10:15 |

| alpha232 | frankandbeans: depends on the solution :) | 10:44 |
| alpha232 | frankandbeans: some NAS servers chew more power than an old "green" pc | 10:44 |

| alpha232 | frankandbeans: if you're THAT concerned about energy, why not build it into another machine that doesn't get shut down normally | 10:44 |

| live_session_use | when trying to install ubuntu...i got the two disks as independent ones not as the logical single one they should be | 12:00 |
| ra21vi | can it be caused due to data corruption, since I dont have UPS and lights went off sometime | 12:00 |
| indus | ikonia: ya ok i didnt say they make it | 12:00 |
| live_session_use | what the hell did i wrong or does i need special support to get this hardware raid | 12:00 |

| ubottu | 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 | 12:04 |
| live_session_use | @ra21vi... by just copying some links may break | 12:04 |
| tigaa | hai whats ur name | 12:04 |
| ra21vi | Pete_B: AFAIK, suspend and hibenate will work best if you have more disk than RAM, almost double is common. Like 1GB RAM, 2GB SWAP | 12:04 |
| live_session_use | is core2duo 64bit or 32bit? | 12:04 |
| neptune | what is ubuntu 8.10 called? | 12:05 |
| ikonia | live_session_use: 64bit capable, both os's will run | 12:05 |

| daniel010101 | ok but what am i doing | 12:13 |
| Gabrydark | i need to recompile kernel to add some modules | 12:13 |
| DJones | matmo: Maybe you should report it as a bug if you find it happens everytime you get a kernel update | 12:13 |
| daniel010101 | how come theres 3 floodbots | 12:13 |
| matmo | DJones: I will but I'm pretty sure it has been reported many time already | 12:14 |
| matmo | DJones: luckily I have unetbootin also on the hd | 12:14 |
| daniel010101 | lol | 12:14 |
| daniel010101 | why is hardly anyone talking | 12:15 |

| mangz | hi! question: can i repair my 9.04 install with an older live disk? i upgraded with the update utility but now i can't boot into linux, something about ata softreset failed and then nothing. i have booted successfully into 9.04 a few times, but now nothing. ideas? | 12:15 |
| DJones | matmo: Good job you're used to it and expect it, at least you know what to do to fix it | 12:15 |
| light | does ubuntu use adress space layout randomisation? | 12:15 |
| matmo | DJones: yeah, but I'm PO at having to go through the same pain every time | 12:16 |
| indus | mangz: hey i have same error ata softreset failed | 12:16 |

| daniel010101 | nothing | 12:18 |
| fluxdude | does anyone know why my ubuntu server 8.10 installation fails to find any disks in esxi? | 12:18 |
| mangz | no ideas about fixing a newer install with an older live cd? or how to fix the softreset issue? it's really strange, because it just suddenly stopped working | 12:19 |
| bazhang | daniel010101, this is ubuntu support; chat in the offtopic channel not here | 12:19 |
| fluxdude | debian installed find, centos installed fine, but not ubuntu... | 12:19 |

| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | 12:21 |
| coz_ | bidossessi, from what I see it can be any hold on I have a pdf | 12:21 |
| stryd | since upgrading to jaunty from hardy (both ubuntu studio) I've been having video problems that seem to be caused by xorg - at least, xorg is unig 20% more CPU than it does in hardy... can anyone give me some advice on fixing it up? | 12:21 |
| iamleneko | i wonder if it is because of compize | 12:21 |
| masquerade | ubottu: but you need to setup ssh on the server first, right? | 12:21 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 12:21 |
| vigo | Sheathed: My pleasure, look at the #list on Freenode, it might be ##hardware | 12:21 |
| iamleneko | i never had this problem with firefox on windows xp | 12:21 |
| iamleneko | i had only 1 flash in some tab | 12:21 |
| bidossessi | coz_, nvm i think i know what the error is. | 12:21 |
| indus | iamleneko: ya its true firefox in windows is better | 12:21 |
| josteint | hi all! could someone with ubuntu 9.04 please try 'sudo apt-get install schism' and run 'schism'? i am having trouble running it with kubuntu 9.04, and i believe it is related to pulseaudio being used as default sound server in kubuntu 9.04. using alsa as default would problably make schism run. but does this happen in ubuntu 9.04 as well? | 12:22 |
| ra21vi | what would be the command to copy one / to another parition.. do I have to exclude the /media /dev /tmp dirs | 12:22 |
| light | try enabling EXA and playing with Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy" | 12:22 |
| iamleneko | light, who ? me ? | 12:22 |
| light | the dude with the slow X | 12:22 |
| indus | !X | 12:22 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 12:22 |
| stryd | thanks light, i'll look into it | 12:23 |
| Spike1506 | ikonia, indus: im really really sorry.. i should have checked out this earlier: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting#Having%20sound%20issues%20with%20HP%20dvx%20laptop | 12:23 |
| Spike1506 | that fixed my issue :( | 12:23 |
| matmo | DJones: relief, back up running, wifi not effected... my be my lucky-ish day :-) | 12:23 |
| ikonia | Spike1506: hey, it worked, thats great | 12:23 |
| indus | Spike1506: cool | 12:23 |
| DJones | matmo: :) | 12:23 |
| vigo | josteint: Do you have Pulse and Alsa installed? | 12:23 |
| Spike1506 | indus, ikonia: check out the reason why it doesnt work the normal way :P | 12:24 |
| coz_ | bidossessi, apparenlty you can switch that system | 12:24 |
| coz_ | bidossessi, i am reading a few articles on that system | 12:24 |
| indus | Spike1506: dont tell me> ears not clean? :D | 12:24 |
| josteint | vigo: not sure... i am just using kubuntu 9.04. i believe it has pulse and alsa installed. pulse uses alsa | 12:24 |
| Spike1506 | no: The cause, according to some alsa developers, is an incorrect 'pin' assignment (in the BIOS, perhaps) whereby sound output meant for the internal speakers gets routed to the wrong place. | 12:24 |
| light | stryd: also check your %int | 12:24 |
| josteint | vigo: but some apps does not always work using pulse | 12:24 |
| indus | Spike1506: wow wait let me read that | 12:24 |
| bidossessi | coz_, yeah, that's not the problem, it seems, something else is failing | 12:24 |
| light | stryd: could be a buggy driver causing too many interrupts which hits latency hard sometimes | 12:24 |
| Spike1506 | indus, cleaned me ears twice today just to make sure it wasnt me being deaf :p | 12:24 |
| stryd | light sorry you've lost me there, and i imagine that google will be less than useful to study it, what'sthat? | 12:25 |
| indus | hehe | 12:25 |
| light | stryd: just look at the % interrupts in top(1) output | 12:25 |
| light | stryd: if it's consistantly high then -> wtf | 12:25 |
| stryd | light: it's the sis650 driver, hasn't been updated (or maintained) in years afaict | 12:25 |
| light | stryd: it's not necessarily X that's your problem | 12:25 |
| stryd | no youre right... x is just one thing i've looked at | 12:26 |
| stryd | but i notice that it's way high on cpu compared with hardy doing the same thing | 12:26 |
| jimi_ | hello people, im just about to venture into the world of trying to get WoW to work in ubuntu. I have the website here to follow but I need to ask one thing. It says that I can copy the WoW folder over from my windows installation, fair one, but can I do that if the installation is on another partition on the same disk as ubuntu? | 12:26 |
| light | what is the breakdown of that cpu time though? | 12:26 |
| light | is it all userspace? | 12:26 |
| stryd | all i need to do is try to move a scrollbar (say, in here) and video playback freezes | 12:26 |
| indus | Spike1506: where is that bit in the url? about pin | 12:26 |
| jrib | jimi_: I don't see why that would matter | 12:27 |
| juxo | Hellow i have problème on dell i can't install pcmcia card for wifi with BCM43 chispset i have been read lot of solution on internet but i have resolved my probems help ? | 12:27 |
| jimi_ | jrib, how would i access it? | 12:27 |
| vigo | josteint: Pulse is usually a required package for sound, I am not really certain how KDE handles it, that would be my guess, update and upgrade those things, like apt-get update/apt-get upgrade , to freshen up the sources.lst or look at the forums if no one here knows. | 12:27 |
| stryd | it's mostly userspace | 12:27 |
| jimi_ | jrib, to copy it over | 12:27 |

| Spike1506 | yeah | 12:28 |
| Spike1506 | so will i ;-) | 12:28 |
| ra21vi | I asked almost 6-7 different question related to my problem. Really feeling unlucky man. No one replied and Google is not much helpful in my case. Anyway. here is last question before I jump out. and waste my one more night over my PC fixing Disk and Ubuntu Setup. The thing is, I need Ubuntu and my Home back in working so I can continue my work which is really Urgent. I cannot have fresh install, please don't suggest it. I need to copy the existing installa | 12:28 |
| josemii | I want to play World of Warcraft on Ubuntu 9.04, whats better? Cedega? CrossOver Linux Pro/Games? Wine? | 12:28 |
| indus | Spike1506: thanks a lot for the link i feel enligjhtened | 12:28 |
| indus | :) | 12:28 |
| indus | enlightened | 12:28 |
| Spike1506 | ty you too | 12:28 |
| stryd | light: i'm going to try that option and restart, bbiab | 12:28 |
| bidossessi | ra21vi, is your /home on a separate partition? | 12:29 |
| ra21vi | bidossessi: yes | 12:29 |
| bidossessi | ra21vi, do you have your setup working somewhere else? | 12:29 |
| josemii | I want to play World of Warcraft on Ubuntu 9.04, whats better? Cedega? CrossOver Linux Pro/Games? Wine? | 12:30 |
| juxo | Hellow i have problème on dell i can't install pcmcia card for wifi with BCM43 chispset i have been read lot of solution on internet but i have resolved my probems help ? ? | 12:30 |
| bidossessi | ra21vi, meaning do you have another ubuntu machine working ? | 12:30 |
| ra21vi | bidossessi: means. The workplace PC has Ubuntu working fine. | 12:30 |
| ra21vi | bidossessi: this machine, from which I am loggin in | 12:30 |
| jigp | hello how to hide my /home/jipg folder so that desktop user cannot access my home/jipg folder? | 12:30 |
| vigo | josemii: Cedega is a pay as you play thing, I do not like it, but that is an opinion, try WINE | 12:31 |
| dam0 | wine is slow | 12:31 |
| dam0 | makes ya pc slow | 12:31 |
| jimi_ | jrib, blimey that all looks a bit complicated, I have only been using Linux for about a month | 12:31 |
| ra21vi | jigp: if you are sudoer, yo can restrict the permission in folder using chmod | 12:31 |
| bidossessi | ra21vi, pack the debs you need to get your target machine to working condition on a portable media and resinstall without formatting your /home partition, is that possible for you? | 12:31 |
| zamba | i'm trying to set up a shared firefox profile.. meaning that all users get the exact same .mozilla folder and then run on-top of that.. | 12:31 |
| jrib | jimi_: you should just have to click on your ntfs partition in nautilus. Or use the gui ntfs-config... | 12:31 |
| zamba | problem is that firefox locks up when doing this.. | 12:31 |
| jrib | jimi_: I must go now though | 12:32 |
| zamba | is there a magic file that's used for locking or similar? | 12:32 |
| jimi_ | jrib, ok ty :) | 12:32 |
| ra21vi | bidossessi: that would mean i will have to redownload those debs., as yeaterday I was thinking the same, and check /var/apt/cache and found nothing. The old are deleted automatically | 12:32 |
| jigp | ra21vi : how to do that?im the root. | 12:32 |
| bidossessi | zamba, add your custom stuff to /etc/skel | 12:32 |
| zamba | bidossessi: hm? | 12:32 |
| areels | hello, which virtual machine is best for ubuntu? | 12:32 |
| zamba | bidossessi: /etc/skel is for the creation of new users.. this is for already active users | 12:33 |
| jigp | ra21vi : i tried to right click my folder "jigp" but there is no related to hide there | 12:33 |
| DaZ | areels: virtualbox is fine | 12:33 |
| areels | apt-get install virtualbox? | 12:33 |
| ra21vi | jigp: ok, means you need simple hide// just prefix . to the fodler name | 12:33 |
| neo8848 | hi there? | 12:33 |
| ra21vi | jigp: i mean , rename the folder with . as first letter | 12:33 |
| jigp | ra21vi : i just want the desktop users cannot view or open my /home/jigp folder | 12:33 |
| ra21vi | bidossessi: any other method | 12:34 |
| vigo | dam0: OpenBox or something? I was going to try EQ , but saw that cedega wanted a monthly fee, is like reverting to a system I gladly ran away from three tears ago. | 12:34 |
| ra21vi | jigp: that will hide. you cannot see that in nautilus till you select to view hidden files (ctrl+h) | 12:34 |
| neo8848 | i need some help on installing ubuntu server on a pc that has windows xp home edition, i just finished installing ubuntu, and the system can no longer boot | 12:34 |
| bidossessi | ra21vi, thinking about cloning your / partition and moving it over to the target machine? i though of that as well, but not sure how it could be done | 12:34 |
| jigp | ra21vi : how about this..the /home/jigp folder can still view but if they want to open it they need to identify or cannot be open | 12:35 |
| indus | cd rom not being detected in jaunty , can we call thata critical bug? | 12:35 |
| outboard_ | is there any know issue with 9.04 and opera browser ? | 12:35 |
| ra21vi | bidossessi: maybe. gParted has copy option | 12:35 |
| outboard_ | **knowen | 12:35 |
| DaZ | jigp: chmod? | 12:35 |
| outboard_ | **known | 12:35 |
| bidossessi | indus, it could laso be called hardware failure | 12:35 |
| jigp | Daz : chmod +x jigp is not working | 12:35 |
| josteint | vigo: ok. thanks for that info. are you usibng 9.04? | 12:35 |
| ra21vi | but not sure if it will work best to copy / filesystem since mahine is live on that | 12:35 |
| jtaji | jigp: what you want to do is: sudo chmod o-rwx /home/jigp | 12:35 |
| DaZ | jigp: it makes it executable :x | 12:36 |
| neo8848 | i'm not sure if it's the same with debian, i used to install with debian and during installation, it detects xp and includes it in grub.... however with the ubuntu installation, it just proceeds with grub and finishes installation... | 12:36 |
| indus | bidossessi: it works in windows:) | 12:36 |
| jigp | jtaji : perfect.let me type that | 12:36 |
| vigo | josteint: No, I am on 8.04.2 | 12:36 |
| jtaji | jigp: then if others need access, change the group owner on that directory and make all desired users member of that group | 12:36 |
| DaZ | make it 600 or something | 12:36 |
| ra21vi | DaZ: how about chown root and then chmod 700 | 12:36 |
| indus | indus: but scott james remnant did ask me for some files so iam hopeful | 12:36 |
| indus | yikes | 12:36 |
| jtaji | ra21vi: another way to break his jigp user :p | 12:37 |
| indus | bidossessi: : but scott james remnant did ask me for some files so iam hopeful | 12:37 |

| qipps | i converted my sda1 on jaunty to ext4, how long will it take until the effects are complete? | 12:37 |
| deepz | Anyone can help me out?? issue related to mac address | 12:38 |
| jigp | jtaji : i will just re-type sudo chmod o-rwx /home/jigp to enable it again? | 12:38 |
| DaZ | qipps: after you'll reinstall everything | 12:38 |
| monstah | deepz: state your problem | 12:38 |

| dasilva | Im trying to use Kismet... does anyone know how to find the sourcetype, interface, name ? | 12:38 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 12:38 |
| jtaji | jigp: sudo chmod o+rx /home/jigp | 12:38 |
| qipps | daz: ok that would be a good option | 12:38 |
| iamleneko | schism package look like broken | 12:38 |
| DaZ | you should have everytinhg in cache anyway | 12:39 |
| matmo | DJones: FYI (and others) a kernel update puts "root ()/ubuntu/disks" in every option in menu.lst instead of, in my case, "root (hd0,5)" | 12:39 |
| qipps | daz: it wouldnt take too long | 12:39 |
| deepz | monstah: i have eth1 interface in my laptop. wanted to change it to etho | 12:39 |
| qipps | daz: what if i only reinstall my most used software? | 12:39 |
| DaZ | qipps: ext4 features work on files installed after filesystem conversion | 12:40 |
| deepz | monstah: Is there any function which determines current network interface used in the system?? | 12:40 |
| Gabrydark | anyone can explain me how i can recompile kernel on ubuntu ? | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | !kernel | 12:40 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 12:40 |
| DaZ | you won't feel any difference anyway imo | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip | DaZ: a conversion to ext4 rather than formatting ext4 initially doesnt net the profits of ext4 | 12:41 |
| qipps | so i better reinstall jaunty? | 12:42 |
| DaZ | sure, sure | 12:42 |
| Piet | hmm i can't get pulseaudio and alsa to work. i have a source, but no sink. http://pastebin.com/m1f600a22 | 12:42 |
| qipps | will jaunty recognize the ext4 automatically? | 12:42 |
| ActionParsnip | qipps: sure | 12:42 |
| DaZ | it should | 12:42 |
| DaZ | but it's waste of time | 12:42 |
| qipps | cool, i have to copy some downlaods first | 12:42 |
| schambers | has anyone installed the firegl drivers for ubuntu? | 12:43 |
| qipps | why its a waste of time? | 12:43 |
| schambers | i dont see my video card driver on the ati website...mobility firegl v5700 | 12:43 |
| DaZ | because the difference is not worth it <: | 12:43 |
| qipps | hmm | 12:43 |
| Gabrydark | thanks ActionParsnip | 12:43 |
| DaZ | i've converted it to ext4, reinstalled packages and i have desired speed | 12:43 |
| qipps | so it does work | 12:44 |
| DaZ | yes | 12:44 |
| Skaag | daz you feel a significant improvement? | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Gabrydark: np bro | 12:44 |
| qipps | das: what kind of software did u reinstall? | 12:45 |
| DaZ | Skaag: like 10mb/s more :F | 12:45 |
| neus | ola | 12:45 |
| DaZ | qipps: everything i had in cache | 12:45 |
| helen | ola | 12:45 |
| qipps | daz: how did u manage tot do so? | 12:45 |
| DaZ | i'm not using ubuntu | 12:45 |
| DaZ | but you should have packages cached somewhere too | 12:46 |
| qipps | *surprised* | 12:46 |
| schambers | how can i install the fglrx drivers for my ati card on my laptop? are they just one driver in general, or do i need to get the specific driver for my card. I dont see it on the ati website. | 12:46 |
| qipps | daz: what distro do u have then? | 12:46 |
| stryd | since upgrading to jaunty from hardy (both ubuntu studio) I've been having video problems that seem to be caused by xorg - at least, xorg is using 20%+ more CPU than it does in hardy... can anyone give me some advice on fixing it up? | 12:47 |

| lamebot_ | vigo: i was thinking about that, i just installed Ubuntu a day or two ago so i have no data to loose. If i just start the install process again with the CD will it delete my current install or will i end up with 2 instances of Ubuntu on my system? | 13:25 |
| ActionParsnip | CyberWorld: you will need to configure it with /etc/network/interfaces or ifconfig | 13:25 |

| Severity1 | woohoo i finally finished setting up 2 ebox on my virtual box | 13:25 |
| pshr_ | where are apps installed by default i cant find them | 13:26 |
| lamebot_ | vigo: great thanks i think i will do that | 13:26 |
| mib_zlm6wf | hi, how can i run a script automatically when the kernel is upgraded? like update-grub does.... | 13:26 |
| Severity1 | and i finally made them join my physical network by setting a network interface to bridge | 13:26 |
| CyberWorld | I'm pretty good on the command line | 13:26 |
| ActionParsnip | pshr_: the nature of linux means that apps arent installed in a specific place | 13:26 |
| th0r | pshr_: they actually could be anywhere | 13:26 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, :( any commands ? | 13:26 |
| vigo | lamebot_: That is why I suggested the backup, but you have minimal data to backup, still worth doing just to get in the groove of it. | 13:26 |
| DaZ | lies | 13:27 |
| DaZ | everything is installed in specific places | 13:27 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: any commmands with what ? | 13:27 |
| pshr_ | i guess i have to reconfigure the installation path and reinstall the apps :( redundancy prevails :P | 13:27 |
| ActionParsnip | pshr_: there will be bits all over, the libs it uses will be in /usr/lib for example but the binary will be sat in /usr/bin | 13:27 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: sorry I've not been following | 13:27 |
| lamebot_ | vigo: true that is a good idea | 13:27 |
| isaac_ | How do you turn trash off? In Jaunty when I try to delete something in an external hard drive the flippin computer copies the whole file to internal hard drive to store it in trash. I just want the file deleted already. | 13:27 |

| pshr_ | ActionParsnip, where do you think propose that i can find some thing to execute the applet | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | pshr_: try tab completing its name | 13:28 |

| JaneDoe | I'm interested in moving some of our company's users from Win to Ubuntu. Are there any PIM's that (1) handle email, (2) maintain contacts and calendars with all outlook compatible fields and (3) can in some way work with OOO? 3 is less important but 2 is a dealkiller. | 13:30 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: you have to configure gnokii | 13:30 |
| ActionParsnip | prathamesh: domiain = googlemail.com | 13:30 |
| isaac_ | How do you turn trash off? In Jaunty when I try to delete something in an external hard drive the flippin computer copies the whole file to internal hard drive to store it in trash. I just want the file deleted already. | 13:31 |
| th0r | pshr_: did you download from synaptic or from a webpage? | 13:31 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: the documentation no how to do it is on the wiki you've said you've read, | 13:31 |
| ActionParsnip | prathamesh: my resource says 'Home' | 13:31 |
| pshr_ | using git | 13:31 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: you need to tell it what type of phone it's connecting to, and the connection type | 13:31 |
| KingKimi | Myrtti, it has bluetooth, infrared 3 megapixel camera ... but no idea whether itss classic or not | 13:31 |
| DaZ | JaneDoe: kdepim or evolution | 13:31 |
| pshr_ | from the source repositorhy | 13:31 |
| pshr_ | repository | 13:31 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, ok.. | 13:31 |
| Myrtti | KingKimi: ok, so it is classic | 13:31 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: the phone models are detailed on the website | 13:31 |
| th0r | pshr_: then you probably downloaded the source and it needs to be compiled and then installed | 13:31 |
| DaZ | JaneDoe: i don't know what do you mean by work with ooo | 13:31 |
| prathamesh | ActionParsnip: home? | 13:31 |
| ActionParsnip | prathamesh: under advanced. i have no tick boxes ticked, port 5222, server talk.google.com proxie = proxy.jabber.org:7777 | 13:32 |
| pshr_ | thats wat i was referring to i have did both and installed it properly with out errors | 13:32 |
| vigo | JaneDoe: VirtualBox or something like that in the repoes, WINE or somesuch thing is inter operable with most Win systems. | 13:32 |
| pshr_ | the problem is where to locate the installed contents | 13:32 |

| eMyller | hello | 13:33 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: READ the wiki | 13:33 |
| JaneDoe | DaZ: my googling suggests there are important fields missing when converting from Outlook contacts. And in Outlook, we use VBA to generate forms in Word from Outlook contact data, so I'd like to do something similar for openoffice (OOO) | 13:33 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: it walks you through it | 13:33 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, if i open from accessories.. it just stays connecting | 13:33 |

| KingKimi | ikonia, ok | 13:33 |
| JaneDoe | vigo: wine will run Outlook and Word? | 13:33 |

| buakeka | CyberWorld no, I cannot. | 13:34 |
| pshr_ | /usr/share it is thanks th0r | 13:34 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: if you have so many problems using linux over windows - maybe windows is a better fit for what you actaully want | 13:34 |
| mkarnicki | gcbond, sup :) ? | 13:34 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, no .. i need linux :D | 13:35 |
| th0r | pshr_: you might want to link it to /usr/local/bin | 13:35 |
| buakeka | I have searched for "wine" and removed a few related files in terminal, but no luck. | 13:35 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: then stop comparing it to linux | 13:35 |

| wojo_ | thanks | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | !medibunti | 13:38 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about medibunti | 13:38 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, ttp://wiki.gnokii.org/index.php/User%27s_Guide the first command in this page is that command... know any command to "create" ? | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | !medibuntu | 13:38 |
| ubottu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 13:38 |
| JaneDoe | DaZ: "missed the part about outlook"? In outlook contact pages, we have buttons that run "macros" - really VBA code that will, for example, open a word template, and insert information from the outlook contact into the word file. simple example: fax cover page. | 13:38 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: you copy the default one, or use a text editor to create one | 13:38 |
| Keloran | how do i set ubuntu to look further back along the ip chain to see where a connection came from, because it seems to stop at my router, all my logs are saying 192.168.0.1 instead of my ip address, even though im connecting from outside the network | 13:38 |
| gcbond | Sorry mkarnicki - not sure where to look | 13:38 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, to create what ./? | 13:38 |
| eMyller | anyone? | 13:38 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, what to create ? | 13:38 |
| mkarnicki | what IRC client do you use? | 13:38 |
| DaZ | JaneDoe: i know, but i didn't read that first time :f | 13:38 |
| DaZ | i'm tired, sorry | 13:38 |
| mkarnicki | is it irssi ? | 13:39 |
| mdpauley | Anyone have a sec to help me? I am running server 9.04 using dhcp. mysql doesn't like binding to the dhcp address and I am having a hard time getting a static ip set. | 13:39 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: READ the page | 13:39 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: http://wiki.gnokii.org/index.php/Config has a link to the example config | 13:39 |
| th0r | Keloran: your router is probably blocking icmp | 13:39 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, thnx for the link | 13:39 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: you said you've read all this yet you can't see it, yet I found it in 15 seconds | 13:40 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: if you lie to me again about actually reading the page I will not be happy | 13:40 |
| JaneDoe | DaZ: ah no probs. checking out kontact. last I recall reading, wine didn't cooperate with outlook and I don't think it will be able to open word given the very foreign filesystem. | 13:40 |
| gartral | using flash at all is slowing my system to a crawl.. | 13:41 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, i cannot understand .... where in the "configuration" para of userguide have that link that you give ?? :( | 13:41 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, sorry | 13:41 |

| FrankQC | When's the only time you have to reboot when using linux? Is it only after the Kernel upgrades and that's all? | 13:41 |
| FrankQC | And even then you can not reboot and continue using the older version of the kernel | 13:41 |
| FrankQC | ? | 13:41 |
| DaZ | FrankQC: yes | 13:42 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, but PLZ dont KICK | 13:42 |
| FrankQC | That's fun | 13:42 |
| vigo | FrankQC: Yes and yes | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | FrankQC: you can reboot and use teh older kenel if you wanted.. | 13:42 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: - please READ the text | 13:42 |
| DaZ | but it may cause some problems | 13:42 |

| FrankQC | I want to see how long I can last w/o rebooting haha... It's been 9 days =) | 13:42 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: this is a persistant problem that you do not read the text people are helping you with | 13:42 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: actually start reading the text people are spending time giving you help for | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | FrankQC: ive had home machines go 4+ months.. but lost the uptime due to power failure during a Thunderstorm | 13:43 |
| vigo | FrankQC: You can also reboot and choose a rescue type thing, fix broken packages and what-not | 13:43 |
| FrankQC | ah | 13:43 |
| CyberWorld | I've had machines in the datacenter go for over a year on freebsd | 13:43 |
| FrankQC | Haha last time in Ubuntu that I rebooted was for a Kernel upgrade and that kernel was faulty | 13:43 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, how do i know whether my nokia is series40 or gnapplet or AT ? | 13:44 |
| FrankQC | It screwed up my network connection | 13:44 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: READ THE PAGE | 13:44 |
| FrankQC | So I went back to the older v.24.23 | 13:44 |
| buakeka | is it okay to delete my /var/cache/apt/archives in order to free up space? Or is that not a good idea? | 13:44 |
| sipior | buakeka: won't do any harm | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis | buakeka: there is a PROPER way to clean that out.. donmt just delete the dir. | 13:44 |
| eMyller | anyone have a clue? | 13:44 |
| bazhang | emyller aptoncd | 13:45 |
| bazhang | oops | 13:45 |
| buakeka | Okay, what is the proper way? | 13:45 |
| P4R41 | anyone familiar with grub4dos? | 13:45 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, for boooting initrd and fs ? | 13:45 |
| P4R41 | KingKimi: im attempting to use grub4dos to boot the jaunty cd iso | 13:46 |
| ikonia | P4R41: why | 13:46 |
| JPZ | Hello everyone, having a hard time getting ampache and phpmyadmin to load on my browser. I've just installed mysql-server5.0,ampache,phpmyadmin. pointing my browser to localhost/phpmyadmin results in "save file as" instead of loading page. Running ubuntu8.10, installed all from reps. | 13:46 |
| sipior | buakeka: try "apt-get clean" | 13:47 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, mount cd or extract it with 7z. these two files "vmlinuz and initrd.gz" | 13:47 |
| P4R41 | cdrom drive is busted and computer is too old for network/usb boot | 13:47 |
| FrankQC | sipior: sudo apt-get autoremove | 13:47 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, but you need ALTERNATE.isp | 13:47 |
| KingKimi | *iso | 13:47 |
| c_nick | Is it possible for 2 search in google.. for something which does not return result for something else.. eg:- i want to search for XIRR but when i do that it returns everything with Excel I dont want Excel so can i do something tht i wont return excel results | 13:47 |
| sipior | FrankQC: not according to the man page. | 13:47 |
| ikonia | P4R41: why do you want to use grub4dos | 13:47 |
| P4R41 | KingKimi: alt is fine, im just not sure how to get the loader to boot the iso | 13:48 |
| FrankQC | sipior: Both work I guess. | 13:48 |
| ikonia | P4R41: why do you want to use grub4dos | 13:48 |
| sipior | FrankQC: no, they don't. | 13:48 |
| P4R41 | ikonia: just a simple bootloader | 13:48 |
| ikonia | P4R41: why do you want to use grub4dos over grub | 13:48 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, create a folder hd-media | 13:48 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, and this link > http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/ | 13:48 |
| FrankQC | sipior: lol I just tried sudo apt-get autoremove" | 13:48 |

| KingKimi | and then place these two files to hd-media folder in C:\ | 13:49 |
| CyberWorld | like google "XIRR -excel" | 13:49 |
| ikonia | P4R41: why do you want to use grub4dos ? | 13:49 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, and then place these two files to hd-media folder in C:\ | 13:49 |
| sipior | FrankQC: from the man page: "autoremove is used to remove packages that were automatically installed to satisfy dependencies for some package and that are no more needed." (poor grammar in original :-) | 13:49 |
| c_nick | CyberWorld: i tried that XIRR - Excel it still gave xcel results | 13:49 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, he wants to boot the iso from windows :P | 13:50 |
| dam0 | hey there matey spiryt | 13:50 |
| KingKimi | ikonia, you know this.. why do you ask him then ? | 13:50 |
| CyberWorld | don't leave space between - and excel to -excel | 13:50 |
| ikonia | KingKimi: I don't know this - that's why I'm asking | 13:50 |
| CyberWorld | do* | 13:50 |

| CyberWorld | np good tip to know | 13:51 |
| P4R41 | im trying to create a dual boot system, win and linux. i have no cdrom access, nor usb/network | 13:51 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, did you get those two files from that link ?? save those files in a folder "hd-media" under C:\ ... and then extract the "grldr" file alone from grub4dos.zip | 13:51 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, place alternate.iso in C:\ | 13:51 |
| P4R41 | I'd actually like to keep ntldr in tact, im having it direct the boot info to the mbr of another hdd | 13:52 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, no.. place the grldr.. dont do anything with ntldr.. | 13:52 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, just place the grldr in C:\ (or where you installed windows) | 13:53 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, then open notepad... and save this http://paste.ubuntu.com/176386/ ... save as "menu.lst" and place it in C:\ | 13:54 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, thats all .. it should booot the alternate.iso | 13:54 |
| zhoujingrui | install ubuntu by iso? | 13:54 |
| zhoujingrui | i did that | 13:54 |

| jimi_ | hi i want to install wow on my ubuntu install from the windows install on the same disk that im using right now, when i drag it over where do i put it? Any ideas? | 13:56 |
| elky | P4R41, did you try the guide listed here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1163031 ? | 13:57 |
| ikonia | P4R41: 05:53 < P4R41> can anyone help me set boot options for the live cd | 13:57 |
| th0r | jimi_ is wow a standalone program? usually there are associated dll files that won't be accessible if you don't do a full install | 13:57 |
| ikonia | P4R41: how where you booting the livecd earlier if you don't have a cdrom | 13:57 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, are you still here ? | 13:57 |
| P4R41 | i am | 13:58 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, i missed a step // sorry | 13:58 |
| th0r | jim__: but to answer your question...it would usually go in /home/<username>/.wine/drive_c/Program Files | 13:58 |
| P4R41 | the cdrom drive failed | 13:58 |
| P4R41 | the cd is perfectly fine | 13:58 |
| bertolo | anyone can test my skype with me ? | 13:58 |
| P4R41 | but i had to pull the drive | 13:58 |
| KingKimi | open C:\boot.ini .. and append to the end C:\grldr="ubuntu" | 13:58 |
| jimi_ | th0r, Its world of warcraft which doesnt need what you say. You can copy the install right over to another PC and it will work, same as guild wars. | 13:58 |
| KingKimi | P4R41, without this step you will not get the ubuntu option in windows boot loader | 13:58 |
| bullgard4 | What Freenode channel discusses voice chat including Empathy? (Please do not tell me #telepathy.) | 13:59 |
| th0r | jimi_: then put it in program files and create a shortcut that calls 'wine <path>/wow.exe' | 13:59 |
| ikonia | bullgard4: you know the topic of this channel is ubuntu support - not channel finding help | 13:59 |
| P4R41 | is there case sensitivity? | 13:59 |
| PacoBuntu | How do i install flash on Ubuntu? | 13:59 |

| Shadowbane | it worked fine in the computer I used until last week | 14:19 |
| scunizi | Shadowbane: with a mix of drive types sometimes there are unusual issues.. being on the same buss doesn't make a diffence. If sudo fdisk -l doesn't show all 3 then I'd check your drive cable connections, power etc.. | 14:20 |
| ranf | Hideme, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension | 14:20 |

| zamba | ActionParsnip: which tool is most used - thus has more active development and community support | 14:24 |
| scunizi | Shadowbane: and position on the ide cable.. | 14:24 |
| cemerick | totally spooky: crontab -e has started hanging my shell session if I have my $EDITOR set to emacs or emacs22. If it's set to nano, everything works. Any ideas? | 14:24 |
| Shadowbane | ??? | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Shadowbane: on the drives they will say how to make them master and slave, set one to master and one to slacve | 14:24 |
| jag_ | Shadowbane: where do u install cinellera from ? | 14:24 |
| bertolo | anyone want help me testing my skype ? | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | zamba: windows is used more than linux, does that make it better? | 14:24 |
| Shadowbane | jag_: on their site there is a repo you can add | 14:25 |
| scunizi | Shadowbane: one should be master (the one connected to the end of the cable) .. slave would be the other.. unless both are set for cable select | 14:25 |
| DaZ | ActionParsnip: yes | 14:25 |
| Shadowbane | ok, I will check that | 14:25 |
| Shadowbane | thanks | 14:25 |
| scunizi | Shadowbane: although cable select isn't always the best choice.. can cause issues | 14:25 |
| zamba | ActionParsnip: oh my you're a querulant | 14:25 |
| ActionParsnip | zamba: best is only a comparison of a product compared to an individuals needs, there is no universal best anything | 14:25 |

| bazhang | zamba, best to ask in #ubuntu-bots | 14:26 |
| jag_ | what cmnd lists all system hardware? ( looking for my pciexpress vid card name etc.) | 14:27 |
| scunizi | jag_: sudo lshw | 14:27 |

| ska | Is Ubuntu Netbook Remix going to work better than a normal ubuntu install ? | 14:28 |
| ubuntu__ | am trying to install ubuntu and I have decided to create partitions for /, /home, /var, /tmp, /usr and /swap. I have a 320 hdd with abt 12g for vista. The machine will be a development machine. Can anyone recommend sizes for the different partions pls. Am thinking of allocating 2.5gb to / and 45gb to /usr | 14:28 |
| cowgarten | ska, no, just has some more features | 14:28 |
| ska | By normal I mean the newest "standard" version. | 14:28 |
| ska | cowgarten: thanks. Do you use a netbook now? | 14:28 |
| jag_ | ActionParsnip: thnx | 14:28 |
| DaZ | ubuntu__: my os uses 10gb | 14:28 |
| michi_ | oh shit is it so easy ^^ thx a lot | 14:28 |
| jag_ | scunizi: thnx | 14:29 |
| cowgarten | ska, I used the netbook remix in 8.04 | 14:29 |
| scunizi | ska: better no.. you can have both at the same time.. it's lke a different desktop version | 14:29 |
| mypapit | michi_, yeah, its easy to shit | 14:29 |
| scunizi | !ohmy | mypapit | 14:29 |

| cowgarten | ska, just have a look http://www.canonical.com/files/video/netbook-screencast.mp4 | 14:29 |
| ska | cowgarten: cool. I'm thinking about getting an asus 901 from newegg, and want to put Ubuntu on it right away. | 14:29 |
| ubuntu__ | DaZ: I didn't get u. | 14:29 |
| mypapit | sorry | 14:30 |
| DaZ | ubuntu__: you don't need 45gigs on /usr <: | 14:30 |
| zamba | what's the eqvivalent of 'xset -b' and 'set bell-style none' in configuration files? | 14:30 |
| DaZ | ubuntu__: just do / /boot and /home | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu__: i'd have / /home and swap | 14:30 |
| DaZ | swap if you have less than 1gb of ram | 14:31 |
| ubuntu__ | DaZ: thanks. So something like 10GB will be okay for /usr? What abt /var, /tmp and /home? I have 3gb of RAM. | 14:32 |
| DaZ | ubuntu__: i have everything on 10 | 14:32 |
| dadrock | How can i download multiple package using terminal at same time? | 14:32 |
| DaZ | ubuntu__: do 15-20 and you're safe for sure | 14:33 |
| cowgarten | ska, I have a 901, but without the remix. I dont like the interface and performance-wise its not better | 14:33 |
| scunizi | dadrock: sudo apt-get install <package> <package> <package> <etc> | 14:33 |
| tel0s | dadrock: you can pass many packages in one sudo apt-get install command, for example sudo apt-get install <package1> <package2> jsut separate the packages with a space | 14:33 |
| ska | cowgarten: So you run standard ubuntu on your 901? | 14:33 |
| cowgarten | ska yes | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | cowgarten: try a lighter DE like XFCE, LXDE, Fluxbox, Openbox etc | 14:33 |
| DaZ | ubuntu__: /home and maybe /boot on different partitions ofc | 14:33 |
| ska | cowgarten: So it sounds like I should at least try the remix first. | 14:34 |
| tel0s | cowgarten: OpenBox is KING | 14:34 |
| PrebenR | what is controlling the sound events, I want to turn off sound events completely, but even if I have done that in gnome and xfce4 I still get sounds apps like glade-3 when I click on a button | 14:34 |
| cowgarten | ActionParsnip: I'm fine with compiz :) (just flash video-performance sometimes lags a bit) | 14:34 |
| ActionParsnip | yuck | 14:34 |
| tel0s | ActionParsnip: indeed. yuck. | 14:34 |

| Ahlee | ozzmosis: yess, but care should be used when using killall as it doesn't always respond as you expected | 14:36 |
| ActionParsnip | tel0s: why waste resources on the DE when you can give it to the apps to make them run nicer | 14:36 |
| Ahlee | ranf: thank you | 14:36 |

| ozzmosis | DaZ: won't work if you're using X over a ssh tunnel or something :) | 14:37 |

| ardy | Onok wong jowo gak ? | 14:48 |
| tel0s | It's ubuntu base with openbox and tint2 | 14:48 |
| tel0s | cowgarten: it's a scripted install, so its simple, but if you really want to do it properly and make your machine optimised do yit yourself, and build pypanel from source. | 14:49 |
| cowgarten | tel0s: what else differs? I installed all that | 14:49 |
| ardy | Pici: sorry i dont know :) | 14:49 |
| Pici | ardy: What language? | 14:49 |

| tel0s | so you don't have to do it all yourself. | 14:51 |
| ardy | Pici: that chan is empty | 14:51 |

| tel0s | jimi if it says no, your 3d isnt working and you need to do that guide. | 15:04 |
| nemo | jimi_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 | 15:04 |
| ardy | :D | 15:04 |
| tel0s | night ardy | 15:04 |
| shortlord | has anyone ever seen a beautiful gnome? sorry, I am a bit desperate, even dwm + cli apps in a transparent terminal looked better than gnome + gtk... :( | 15:04 |
| nemo | jimi_: you might want to read some of the background linked on that page about what's going on in Xorg | 15:04 |
| tel0s | xrfang: that's the price you pay for breaking your desktop ;) | 15:05 |
| nemo | jimi_: but, the test is fairly harmless, you can always revert - for me, it meant getting graphics accel back | 15:05 |
| tel0s | shortlord: If I've said it once, i've said it 100 times. Openbox + conky+pypanel ;) | 15:05 |
| zek | I am trying to run a program that requires a link to the x11 rgb.txt i did a search and it isnt on the computer. Where do i go get rgb.txt? | 15:05 |
| tel0s | zek: which program? | 15:06 |
| xrfang | tel0s: the current problem is NOT caused by removing unused things. | 15:06 |
| nemo | jimi_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance (that's the page you might want to read over, before just reverting :) ) | 15:06 |
| jimi_ | nemo, ok ty :) | 15:06 |
| xrfang | it happens out of the blue today, while these packages are removed long long ago. | 15:06 |
| tel0s | xrfang: I didn't say it was, but in order to fix it, these are the steps you ahve to take. | 15:06 |
| zek | tel0s: player and stage. its a robotics program | 15:06 |
| shortlord | tel0s, Openbox looks good, no question, but I want a Desktop Environment and I cannot live without tiling | 15:06 |
| jimi_ | tel0s, ok it says direct rendering: yes | 15:06 |
| xrfang | the problem seems related to that I try to set a svg file downloaded from gnome-look as desktop wall paper. | 15:06 |
| nemo | I'm on 2.6.30-r6 due to the serious flaw in ubuntu patches to 2.6.28 & ext4 - does anyone here know if I update the 2.6.28 kernel, if the ubuntu grub autoupdate will change the default kernel from 2.6.30? would mostly just like to get update manager to quit nagging me | 15:07 |
| shortlord | tel0s, I guess I am really doomed to live with an ugly look... maybe gtk3 will bring new hope | 15:07 |
| tel0s | jimi_: then the issue does not lie in your graphics. | 15:07 |
| nemo | tel0s: wellll. | 15:07 |
| nemo | tel0s: I had direct rendering too, but still had to revert | 15:07 |
| jimi_ | tel0s, would it be cause im running it from the xp partition directly wihtout using wine | 15:07 |
| tel0s | jimi_: have you enabled openGL, and changed the smoke settings etc as stated on appdb.winehw.org? | 15:07 |
| shengton | I notice something in Xubuntu. The NTFS drives are not in the Places menu. Just installed the Xubuntu successfully. Is this normal? Why? | 15:07 |
| jimi_ | tel0s, no | 15:08 |
| zek | tel0s: but the problem is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/300935 | 15:08 |
| jimi_ | tel0s, i know nothing about that | 15:08 |
| tel0s | shortlord: try another lightweight tiling WM ;) | 15:08 |
| xrfang | tel0s, I presume I need to log off/log on after the apt-get install ubuntu-desktop? | 15:08 |
| tel0s | xrfang: ctrl+alt+bckspc | 15:08 |
| xrfang | ok | 15:08 |
| Pici | !dontzap | xrfang tel0s | 15:08 |
| ubottu | xrfang tel0s: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 15:08 |
| cowgarten | tel0s: wasnt this disabled? | 15:08 |
| shortlord | tel0s, xmonad is great, show me a DE that looks good and I'm in ;) | 15:09 |
| tel0s | cowgarten: seemingly so! haha | 15:09 |
| shadeslayer | hi,on booting sendmail-mta is taking 10 secs to load...increasing boot time to 30 secs any ideas? i disabled it for now...but im having second thoughts...any idea? | 15:09 |
| voracious | thank you | 15:09 |
| Pici | nemo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto might help you keep your kernel package at the version that you want. | 15:09 |
| voracious | to all | 15:09 |
| xrfang | thanks Pici | 15:09 |
| tel0s | jimi_: go look at the changes required in the settings on wow on appdb.winehq.org | 15:10 |
| stanir | anybody knows about boot problems with mixed ide/sata drives and separate /boot partition? I just installed 9.04 and it panics, i guess because the drives are swapped around and / partition is not on the right drive | 15:10 |
| cowgarten | sudo: dontzap: command not found ?? | 15:10 |
| nemo | Pici: thanks much | 15:10 |
| tel0s | jimi_: a couple fo changes need to be made to make it run smoothly. | 15:10 |
| jimi_ | tel0s, ty :) | 15:10 |
| Computer_Man | Can someone help me get my video driver to do custom so that I can get 3d cube to work? | 15:10 |
| aethelrick | I have a similar problem stanir | 15:10 |
| ozzmosis | stanir: I wouldn't have thought it would panic | 15:10 |
| zhoujingrui | how to close a window by command | 15:10 |
| tel0s | Computer_Man: what gfx card do you have? | 15:10 |
| shadeslayer | cowgarten: you need to install dontzap | 15:11 |
| jimi_ | tel0s, silly question but how do i know that it is running using wine? | 15:11 |
| xrfang | Pici, is the SysRq key same as the PrintScr key? it does not work for me if I press that the screenshot box will popup | 15:11 |
| cowgarten | ah | 15:11 |
| stanir | ozzmosis, yep, it did. not even started booting kernel. it was about 1st or 2nd line in boot sequence | 15:11 |
| jimi_ | tel0s, i have wine installed but i just double clicked on the launcher from my windows install to start WoW | 15:11 |
| gaotian | yo , does anybody now how to use amule on ubuntu ? | 15:11 |
| devz0r | Does anyone know the command that you execute with a program that records the time it takes to execute that program? | 15:11 |
| Pici | xrfang: On most keyboards it is the same key as the printscr key | 15:11 |
| cowgarten | gaojinjun: emule? | 15:12 |
| ozzmosis | devz0r: "time" | 15:12 |
| stanir | aethelrick, do you have a mixed configuration of drives, like ide/sata? | 15:12 |
| Computer_Man | is the on MOBO Video card on Dell 260GX | 15:12 |
| zek | tel0s: any ideas? | 15:12 |
| mattgyver | stanir, aethelrick, is it an issue where your drives are swapping after a reboot, IE: sda becomes, sdb, and vice versa? | 15:12 |
| xrfang | Pici, well it does not work anyway to use alt-SysRq+K... but, now I have ran dontzap --disable, and ctrl-alt-backspace is not back | 15:12 |
| devz0r | thanks ozzmosis | 15:12 |
| ozzmosis | devz0r: | 15:12 |
| ozzmosis | 0:12 ozzmosis@sauber [~]time /bin/sleep 2 | 15:12 |
| ozzmosis | 0.004u 0.000s 0:02.02 0.0%0+0k 64+0io 1pf+0w | 15:12 |
| jag__ | devz0r: EG. time l / | 15:12 |
| tel0s | jimi_: the fact that it launched shows its running under wine ;) | 15:12 |
| xrfang | I need to reboot so that it can be used next time? | 15:12 |
| aethelrick | I've had numerous failed attempts at getting ubuntu 9.04 to install on my second SATA disk and it does not install the boot loader correctly. I've followed manuals and guides to the letter and had no success... I seriously considering just putting the openSuSE disk back in because it works without any trouble | 15:12 |
| tel0s | zek sorry one second i was afk, re reading what you said | 15:12 |
| Pici | xrfang: The xserver needs to be restarted at least once after the dontzap command is run for it to take effect. | 15:12 |
| jimi_ | tel0s, oh lol nice, cheers matey :) | 15:12 |
| xrfang | ok, thanks Pici | 15:13 |
| gaotian | yes emule | 15:13 |
| aethelrick | stanir: no, I have three SATA disks in a hot swap bay | 15:13 |
| shadeslayer | aethelrick: did you check the box " install bootloader " at the end?? | 15:13 |
| tel0s | zek: lol i cant find what you wrote, could you ask your question again pleasE? :d | 15:13 |
| shengton | I notice something in Xubuntu. The NTFS drives are not in the Places menu. Just installed the Xubuntu successfully. Is this normal? Why? | 15:14 |
| devz0r | ozzmosis: so the time it took to execute is the "sys" time? | 15:14 |
| shadeslayer | shengton: #xubuntu can answer maybe | 15:14 |
| zek | tel0s: thats fine, the program i am trying to run needs a file called rgb.txt in the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt | 15:14 |
| ozzmosis | devz0r: I don't remember details about it. better read the man page :) | 15:14 |
| devz0r | real seems to be the time it took until i closed it, user i am not sure, but sys seems to be a consistent number no longer how long i have it running | 15:15 |
| scunizi | zek what kind of program is it? what's the name? | 15:15 |
| coreyman1 | I'm using powertop and I have to do those options every time i start up my laptop, i tried to set them manually and it said permission denied, how can i set these options in powertop to happen on startup | 15:15 |
| cowgarten | shengton: it is normal, but you can automount them to wherever you like | 15:15 |
| shadeslayer | coreyman1: use sudo | 15:15 |
| zek | tel0s: the documentation says to link it symbolically from /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt : Its a robotics program/simulator called player and stage | 15:15 |
| aethelrick | shadeslayer yup, the bootloader installed but it was auto-misconfigured grub throws an error 22 on the next boot, requiring me to boot from the live CD to proceed | 15:15 |
| th0r | shengton: you might try adding ntfs-3g to /etc/modules...it worked for usb drives, might work for ntfs also | 15:15 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer i did | 15:15 |
| zek | tel0s: however the file it says to link doesnt exist | 15:16 |
| Computer_Man | i think it is intel 291 chipset | 15:16 |
| shadeslayer | aethelrick: how about manually installing it?? | 15:16 |
| shadeslayer | coreyman1: works for me here :)....no idea.. | 15:16 |
| shengton | Hi shadeslayer and cowgarter! Thanks for replying. How will I automount that? | 15:16 |
| zek | tel0s: nor does the destination (sorry for the multilines i need to get used to irc instead of other chats) | 15:16 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | so | 15:16 |
| tel0s | zek: is it in /etc/X11/rgb.txt? just check there for me | 15:16 |
| shengton | Hi shadeslayer and cowgarter! Thanks for replying. How I will automount Sir? | 15:16 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | upgrading my system over ssh should be done in screen eh ? | 15:17 |
| scunizi | zek: in my hardy install 8.04.. rgb.txt is located in 2 locations.. /etc/X11/rgb.txt and /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt | 15:17 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer did powertop save the settings for you? | 15:17 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer or did you use the echo > blah/blah | 15:17 |
| jimi_ | tel0s, sorry for being a bit thick but i am having trouble finding where these changes i need to perform are listed | 15:17 |
| tel0s | jimi_: there should a file called WTF.confg | 15:18 |
| tel0s | jimi you need to enable opengl in there | 15:18 |
| shadeslayer | coreyman1: powertop doesnt save the settings,it merely writes values to files,writes them out everytime you run it | 15:18 |
| aethelrick | shadeslayer: I followed the instructions on grub's website to find /boot/grub/stage1, set root to the device and partition it finds and then doing a setup (hd0) but this does not fix the problem... there is something fundamental I'm missing and it's not in the docs. The majority of guides assume you're making space on one disk and booting linux and windows side by side. | 15:18 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer yea... | 15:18 |
| tel0s | zek: does it exist in /etc/X11/rbg.txt ? | 15:18 |
| Computer_Man | sorry is Intel i915 | 15:19 |
| zek | tel0s: i have 9.04 and its in neither of those places, unless its hidden? | 15:19 |
| shadeslayer | aethelrick: hmm..no idea then..you could take it up in #grub | 15:19 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer i tried to set the values in the files manually and it told me permission denied. | 15:19 |
| shadeslayer | coreyman1: so no it does not save settings | 15:19 |
| tel0s | zek: check using ls -la /etc/X11/ | 15:19 |
| shadeslayer | coreyman1: are you in the admin group etc. | 15:19 |
| scunizi | zek: do a sudo updatedb then a locate rgb.txt | 15:19 |
| jamescarr | firefox is convinced it's in offline mode | 15:19 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer i'm probably not, my user was set up when i installed fresh. | 15:19 |
| jamescarr | my presence here proves otherwise | 15:20 |
| jamescarr | what can I do to fix that? | 15:20 |
| tel0s | zek: scunizi that will be complicated as there are a few rgb.txts on the machine. just none are the applicabel one. | 15:20 |
| GreenDelta2 | Hey, is there any better h264 codec in the repositories than the one installing automatically when you run a HD Video? Because this ones not that good, becoming asynchron after some time... | 15:20 |
| aethelrick | shadeslayer: I theorize that some how the order of disks at boot is different to the order grub see them in after boot. I need to somehow get grub to drop to a grub shell at boot then I could fire the right commands to find out where each OS is, but I'm not clear on how to do this and sadly #grub is nowhere near as helpful as #ubuntu | 15:20 |
| shadeslayer | coreyman1: ok try sudo adduser <username> admin | 15:20 |
| ozzmosis | jamescarr: untick File -> Work Offline | 15:20 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer oh ok :D | 15:20 |
| bobsaccamano | my ubuntu 8.10 has become so sluggish that im having to consider switching to windows...im using a third party theme - can this be the cause? | 15:20 |
| jamescarr | thanks | 15:20 |
| scunizi | bobsaccamano: yes and/or your video driver | 15:21 |
| jamescarr | ozzmosis, it's been annoying... it wont let me go to localhost when offline | 15:21 |
| aethelrick | I've tried pot luck with the device.map file and I've tried applying logic, short of recompiling grub with a few debug statements in it to clearly show what it's doing I'm at a loss | 15:21 |
| tel0s | bobsaccamano: It could be. have you tried using another Desktop environment such as XFCE? | 15:21 |
| Skaag | bobsaccamano: If you are considering switching to Windows, then just go ahead and do it :-) | 15:21 |
| ozzmosis | bobsaccamano: you tell us... switch to a default theme and see if it improves! | 15:21 |
| zek | te0s: i did the updatedb (btw what is that command?) and "locate rbg.txt" and none appeared | 15:21 |
| devius | hello, i need assistance with my new ubuntu installation; i cant enable my desktop effects at ALL, not even on normal....why's that? | 15:21 |
| shadeslayer | aethelrick: hmm..unnfourtunately im no grub expert... no idea how to achieve that | 15:21 |
| === yacc_ is now known as yacc | ||
| Skaag | bobsaccamano: I'm saying this because if you are even considering it, you are obviously not understanding the advantages of using ubuntu | 15:21 |
| shadeslayer | devius: video card?? | 15:21 |
| tel0s | devius: it is probably your graphics drivers. | 15:21 |
| zek | tel0s: i found the bug but i dont know how to fix it https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/300935 | 15:22 |
| ozzmosis | jamescarr: yes, I think offline mode is just for file access only, whereas localhost uses tcp/ip (loopback networking) | 15:22 |
| tel0s | zek: i was looking at that myself :D | 15:22 |
| ozzmosis | jamescarr: so http:// won't work but file:// will | 15:22 |
| tel0s | zek you are going to need to find rgb.txt and copy it into the correct directories. | 15:22 |
| bobsaccamano | oh yes..and firefox takes abt 250mb ram | 15:22 |
| YixilTesiphon | are most of the issues with sound on 64-bit jaunty fixed by now? | 15:22 |
| shadeslayer | bobsaccamano: :O | 15:22 |
| YixilTesiphon | I've been on beta for awhile, the one time I installed updates sound died | 15:22 |
| zek | tel0s: ok does this file look right http://people.csail.mit.edu/jaffer/Color/rgb.txt ? | 15:22 |
| tel0s | zek: wget http://wwwcdf.pd.infn.it/MLO/rgb/rgb.txt | 15:23 |
| devius | shadeslayer, tel0s: its an intel graphics card, """supposed to be supported out of the box""" | 15:23 |
| melman | test | 15:23 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer i just checked, i am admin | 15:23 |
| tel0s | zek then sudo cp rgb.txt /etc/X11/rgb.txt | 15:23 |
| shengton | Hello thor! Thanks for replying. The ntfs-3g is already installed. | 15:23 |
| shadeslayer | devius: actually no...ubuntu 9.04 does not support your card | 15:24 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer let me paste an error message when i try to add values to files. | 15:24 |
| Pici | devius: Please see the Jaunty release notes in the topic regarding issues with Intel graphics cards | 15:24 |
| shadeslayer | devius: read the release notes | 15:24 |
| devius | okok | 15:24 |
| shadeslayer | coreyman1: uh...im off in 5 min | 15:24 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer okay | 15:25 |
| etb | after upgrade to ubuntu 9.04 virtualbox doesnt start, it hangs | 15:25 |
| aethelrick | no problem shadeslayer, thanks anyway :) | 15:25 |
| etb | anyone know why?< | 15:25 |
| devius | Pici: could you please direct me to the right page | 15:25 |
| xrfang | tel0s: I found the problem, that is caused by the svg file | 15:26 |
| ozzmosis | etb: works for me | 15:26 |
| coreyman1 | shadeslayer sudo echo min_power > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy | 15:26 |
| coreyman1 | bash: /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy: Permission denied | 15:26 |
| coreyman1 | oops | 15:26 |
| Pici | devius: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes#Performance%20regressions%20on%20Intel%20graphics%20cards | 15:26 |
| xrfang | it is a "huge" svg of 3M. which hangs the file manager. I think this is a bug | 15:26 |
| coreyman1 | ok bye | 15:26 |
| FloodBot1 | coreyman1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:26 |
| zek | tel0s: the last problem is that i dont have a /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 directory | 15:26 |
| etb | ozzmosis: which module is it | 15:26 |
| ozzmosis | etb: what? | 15:26 |
| tel0s | zek make it :D | 15:27 |
| coreyman1 | Anyone know why I can't do this to the following file as sudo? | 15:27 |
| coreyman1 | http://papernapkin.org/pastebin/view/5529/ | 15:27 |
| zhism | hi which scrobbler is really good ? I got mpd + ncmpcpp | 15:27 |
| etb | ozzmosis: which vbox pkg is that? | 15:27 |
| zek | tel0s: wow sorry, that was a noob question, right after i asked it i hit myself in the head | 15:28 |
| coreyman1 | Anyone know why I can't do this as sudo? http://papernapkin.org/pastebin/view/5529/ | 15:28 |
| gordonjcp | is there any way to get the applet panel functionality back into Jaunty, the way it was in Hardy? | 15:28 |
| tel0s | zek: not a problem, if it were any other moment i would have slapped you, but i ahve chocolate biscuits so im subdued at the moment. | 15:29 |
| gordonjcp | coreyman1: because you're no longer sudoed after the redirect | 15:29 |
| tel0s | coreyman1: do a sudo bash and then in that, do your command. | 15:29 |
| devius | Pici: okeey....i guess that sucks for me, anyway ill try using the first option "using the "greedy" migration heuristic", could you assist me through the proccess | 15:29 |

| Dre4m | Hi there, sorry if this question is a little vauge question I was just trying to find out if anyone knows what the most popular and respected video editor on linux/ubuntu is? | 15:39 |
| helo | things have improved a bit since then... | 15:39 |
| Guest93902 | I'm trying to get the game Arcanum working with wine, but I'm not having any luck. I'm getting this error when I try to run it in wine: Cannot change screen BPP from 32 to 16 | 15:39 |
| SetiAmon | so here is a few questions.the account it had me make when installing ubuntu,that is this account,it isn't root right? and if so how am i supposed to login as root incase i need to have that kind of access in the future | 15:39 |
| Trojaneyez | devius, is this a laptop? | 15:39 |
| devius | Trojaneyez: yes | 15:39 |
| Trojaneyez | Asus? | 15:39 |
| genii | !root | SetiAmon | 15:39 |
| ubottu | SetiAmon: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 15:39 |

| GreenDelta2 | i cant get out the proxy of my apt-get. i checked "direct conection" in the system wide proxy dialog and i checked direct connection in the proxy dialog of synaptics... but everytime i try apt-get it still wants to connect to the proxy.. | 15:40 |
| genii | SetiAmon: Ubuntu uses no root account. Everything requiring elevated priveleges should be done using sudo as the bot explains. | 15:40 |
| SetiAmon | if there is no root password doesn't that mean anyone who logs into this account can do whatever they want? | 15:40 |
| devius | Trojaneyez: ? | 15:40 |
| jim__ | GreenDelta2: edit /etc/apt/sources.list | 15:40 |

| devius | *am | 15:41 |
| Dre4m | i'm trying to find out if anyone knows what the most popular and respected video editor on linux/ubuntu is? | 15:41 |
| Slart | SetiAmon: the account that was made during the install is part of the "admin" group.. that means you can run any command as root.. and do all the things a root user would normally be able to do | 15:41 |
| SetiAmon | So should i creat another account or is using the default safe | 15:42 |

| GreenDelta2 | jim_: and what to edit there? | 15:42 |
| Slart | SetiAmon: using the default is safe.. that's what most people do.. you still have to use sudo for root stuff | 15:42 |

| Slart | SetiAmon: system, administration, update-manager .. you can change the settings either in a menu there.. or in system, administration, software sources | 16:04 |

| Slart | Gaming4JC: I'm not sure what this orbit-thing is.. have you googled for it? | 16:08 |
| devius | Dr_Willis:ok r u using jaunty | 16:08 |
| coreyman1 | slart well im sorry i cant think of everything i want to say in one enter key | 16:08 |
| devius | Dr_Willis: if yes then wat did u do | 16:08 |
| mzz | JackalsNose: hmm, the desktop is normally drawn by nautilus, but a nautilus process is normally started along with your session. | 16:08 |
| mcphail | Are there any RT kernels for jaunty which are up-to-date with the non-RT kernel? | 16:08 |
| mzz | JackalsNose: this is a mostly-standard gnome session? Anything related in ~/.xsession-errors? | 16:08 |

| coreyman1 | slart it didn't even give me a warning. | 16:09 |

| pcb-dennis1 | hi i have a weird problem using our proxy with apt, apt-get upgrade tries to download each packet about 20 times.... | 16:10 |
| whileimhere | What is the difference between GTK 1.x and 2.x? | 16:10 |
| * Gaming4JC goes to double check | 16:10 | |
| mzz | Gaming4JC: that's what I don't understand. Also, to even do that at all it'd have to be launched as root, which is weird. | 16:10 |
| phillipsm | I have a question about creating a custom ubuntu iso....is it possible to copy the .iso off of a live cd so i don't have to download all 700mb again when i have the image i want to modify on a cd already? | 16:10 |
| Slart | Gaming4JC: hmm.. perhaps it's forwarding the port to some gnome application that wants samba sharing.. | 16:10 |
| michel_ | hi people... i have a big problem, i have amistake changing users permission... i make chown and chmod to the /var | 16:10 |
| mzz | Slart: that wouldn't give you an orbit process. It's a different protocol. | 16:10 |
| michel_ | there area a way to restore default permissions | 16:10 |
| Gaming4JC | hmm odd indeed | 16:10 |
| michel_ | and owner | 16:11 |
| Flannel | phillipsm: yes, just use dd to copy it to an iso file. | 16:11 |
| Slart | mzz: ok.. I've never messed with it.. so I'm really just guessing.. | 16:11 |
| mzz | phillipsm: just copying (or dd-ing) the device node (may be /dev/sr0) should give you a working iso | 16:11 |
| phillipsm | flannel: thanks... | 16:11 |
| mzz | also, I need to type faster :) | 16:11 |
| mzz | Slart: don't start now, it's slowly on its way out (mainly replaced by dbus) | 16:12 |

| nibbler__ | can i somehow pass info from the boot menu to the userspace of the booted system? | 16:14 |

| Dr_Willis | nibbler__: ive seen it done on many disrtos. but i dont know what reads the passed on info. proberly some varianble/init script does it | 16:14 |
| mzz | Gaming4JC: that's really weird output. Those /tmp/orbit-blah/linc-blah things should be sockets, not executables. So getting "tcp" there makes no sense, should be "unix". Can you run "file /tmp/orbit-luke/linc-d70-0-5315a2b9a087c"? | 16:14 |

| Slart | dmark: wrong channel.. | 16:16 |
| Gaming4JC | mzz: doesn't appear to execute | 16:16 |
| mzz | Gaming4JC: so either your netstat is being weird (compared to mine at least) or you have an executable cleverly disguised in a location normally used by sockets | 16:16 |

| Slart | fta_: there is an application called photorec that recovers images, and other files.. it's pretty good | 16:17 |
| Gaming4JC | mzz: Oh :P ... well I'm going to try viewing them with gedit. Somethings there... | 16:17 |
| devius | Slart: and my xorg.conf is blank | 16:17 |
| mzz | Gaming4JC: that shouldn't work if they're sockets. Can you please try "file"? | 16:17 |
| devius | Slart: ya and gud luck helping me :P | 16:18 |
| mzz | Slart: bleh, I'm wrong, there's no actual orbit process | 16:18 |

| Gaming4JC | mzz: tha'ts the output. | 16:19 |
| Gaming4JC | *that's | 16:19 |
| nlko | ah got it | 16:19 |
| mzz | Slart: you're correct, the sockets are just used by a couple of gnome processes. Check with fuser or lsof if you really want to know :) | 16:19 |
| helper | hello i want to wipe all logs in /var/log echo > *.log not wiping give me error is there any command i can wipe them like every file end with .log i do *.log for example ? | 16:19 |
| devius | nlko: yes | 16:19 |
| mzz | Gaming4JC: then imho your netstat is being weird | 16:19 |
| Flannel | nlko: no. Don't force the install. devius: please don't give out bad information. | 16:19 |
| Slart | fta_: if I were you I would create an image of the card. (if you have the disk space).. there are some utilities that try to read damaged media.. I can't remember the name at the moment though | 16:19 |
| devius | nlko: gud | 16:19 |

| mavann | hello folks had a question I have a epson stylus photo rx595 usb, the printer runs just fine under ubuntu. I have tried just about everything suggested on the forums to get to work with xsane. from adding the vendor and prodcut id and remming out the epson and epson2 lines to trying different program but have not had any luck getting it to run under ubuntu the quick way out would be to use virtual box but love it to run native on ubuntu | 16:20 |
| grkblood13 | im having an issue with my sound card i believe, i have audio ports in the back of my pc and a headphone jack in the front. for some reason my audio jack in the back with not work. i have to route my speakers to the pfront headphone jack in order to heard audio. | 16:20 |
| SetiAmon | hmm strange i went there and tried to install the unbuntu restricted and it says it conflicts with another package | 16:20 |
| Flannel | nlko: just like in real life, when something doesn't fit, that doesn't mean you push harder. You likely have a package that isn't for your Ubuntu version, or something like that. | 16:20 |
| djx | could any1 help me? | 16:20 |
| mzz | grkblood13: check for any related switches in the volume control app | 16:20 |
| Gaming4JC | mzz: Strange. lol. So how can I bind the honeypot since the port is indeed in use by something? When I configure Firestarter to allow port 445, nmap says it's wide open, but nepenthes remains "unbinded". | 16:20 |
| nlko | that seems to have worked anyway | 16:20 |
| dajhorn | helper: for ii in *.log; do :>"$ii"; done | 16:20 |
| Flannel | nlko: A proper package shouldn't require anything out of the ordinary to install. | 16:20 |
| grkblood13 | mzz, i have played with them all | 16:20 |
| Slart | mzz: ahh.. lots and lots of open files.. but it seems that it's only the folder that is called orbit.. not the process in itself.. | 16:20 |
| dajhorn | helper: You can have only one file on the right-hand side of the '>' thingy. | 16:21 |
| mzz | Slart: exactly (it's a library, used by things like gconf and the panel) | 16:21 |
| devius | Flannel: u c ubuntu like donkey, it do something bad, u hit it with slipper, or shoe, then it goes back straight, thats excatly what force does, it slippers ubuntu :P | 16:21 |
| mzz | Gaming4JC: not sure what's going on here. That netstat output is weird. Wonder if anyone in here currently running ubuntu (which I'm not) gets the same? | 16:21 |
| Gaming4JC | mzz and Slart: Thanks for answering btw, I knew I wasn't going insane. XD (generally port 445 isn't bound to a port that low). | 16:21 |
| Gaming4JC | for gnome etc. | 16:22 |
| Gaming4JC | sockets. | 16:22 |
| helper | dajhorn, didn't work i put this in script | 16:22 |
| Gaming4JC | It is remotely possible this box has been compromised. It's a viral network I'm on. But I haven't installed any unsual apps. :-/ | 16:22 |

| LjL | _devius: try english, seriously | 16:23 |
| Flannel | _devius: You're not. Nor are you allowed to give out wrong information in this channel. If you wish to stay in this channel, please stop being offtopic, stop giving out bad information, and ask a support question instead of just complaining about something not working. | 16:23 |
| dajhorn | helper: If you're messing around in /var, then you need to be root. | 16:24 |
| _devius | Flannel i did but no one gives any answer | 16:24 |
| helper | dajhorn, ya i know but i was writting .log.0 i was to wipe .log, , u said here for ii in *.log ( ii mean everything end with .log ?) | 16:24 |
| Flannel | _devius: then you should be patient and repeat your question after approximately 30 minutes. Eventually someone will be online who can help you with your issue. | 16:25 |
| Gaming4JC | Slart: Do you have any orbit output such as mine? | 16:25 |

| resno | LjL: thanks. figured as much | 16:27 |

| _devius | ziroday: yes | 16:28 |
| Omglii2 | Hi, what guide is there to get ubuntu 64 bit running off a usb stick ? | 16:28 |
| LjL | neoline: you can only do that with the alternate iso, i believe, not with the normal one | 16:29 |
| Slart | Gaming4JC: nope.. nothing listening on 445 for me.. | 16:29 |
| neoline | got the iso mounted, but update doesnt start.. got alternate ljl | 16:29 |
| Gaming4JC | Slart: Ubuntu 9.04? | 16:29 |
| ziroday | _devius: you are suffering performance regressions with the new intel drivers. This might be fixed with using UXA rendering. You might want to take a read through https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance | 16:29 |
| LjL | neoline: what command have you used to start the update? | 16:29 |
| Slart | Gaming4JC: yup.. 64bit | 16:29 |
| _devius | ziroday: you are absolutely ryt | 16:29 |
| Slart | Gaming4JC: and you're not running the samba server? | 16:29 |
| bootstrap | anyone know anything about dcopserver? | 16:29 |
| _devius | ziroday: but do you think it will work :P......xD ill try | 16:30 |
| Slart | Gaming4JC: sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop will stop it if it's running | 16:30 |
| Gaming4JC | Slart: No it's not even installed. o_O | 16:30 |
| Gaming4JC | Slart: sudo: /etc/init.d/samba: command not found | 16:30 |
| ziroday | _devius: I strongly recommend you read through that wikipage I gave you, enabling UXA rendering is likely to renable 3D but there might be other bugs | 16:30 |
| neoline | well since it didnt start, i ran gksudo "/media/isomount /cdromupgrade" first it started, but hung up after fetching 875 packeges | 16:31 |
| neoline | sorry, missed the sh | 16:31 |
| Slart | Gaming4JC: and your honeypot isn't running in the background either? | 16:31 |
| bootstrap | anyone know anything about dcopserver? | 16:32 |
| bootstrap | and how to turn it off | 16:32 |
| _devius | ziroday: LOL....anotherthing my xorg.conf file is BLANK...? | 16:32 |
| Gaming4JC | Slart: No, honeypot is currently turned off. | 16:32 |
| ziroday | _devius: that's correct | 16:32 |
| Slart | Gaming4JC: from your pastebin it doesn't seem like orbit is to blame.. it's listening on port 11445, not 445 | 16:32 |
| _devius | ziroday: so how am i gonna do anything of whats in there | 16:32 |
| IAreR3D | I'm having issue with my sound where all it outputs is static, doesn't do that with a livecd, can anyone help me out? | 16:32 |
| ziroday | _devius: just create new xorg file, with the section's you need | 16:32 |
| neoline | ljl? | 16:32 |
| _devius | ziroday: can u help me with that | 16:33 |
| neoline | well since it didnt start, i ran gksudo "sh /media/isomount /cdromupgrade" first it started, but hung up after fetching 875 packege | 16:33 |
| Gaming4JC | Slart: I had noticed that... but what is listening then? (no name??) | 16:33 |
| ziroday | _devius: certaintly, gimme a min | 16:33 |
| _devius | ziroday: sure... | 16:33 |
| Gaming4JC | Slart: I'm used to running netstat on Windows Boxes :P | 16:33 |

| mcphail | neoline: probably not supported, by the look of it | 16:39 |
| neoline | okay. the Jaunty alternate iso guys.. | 16:40 |
| ziroday | _devius: you save that file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and then logout and log back in and try to enable desktop effects | 16:40 |
| _devius | ziroday: ok....brb | 16:40 |
| neoline | could mount it, but no update manager started.. so followed the instruction to run the sh script | 16:40 |
| IAreR3D | I'm having issue with my sound where all it outputs is static, can anyone help me out? | 16:40 |
| neoline | first it started and stopped after fetching 875 packages.. | 16:40 |
| mcphail | neoline: perhaps the loop device gets killed through the update process. Burn the iso and try from that. | 16:41 |
| neoline | then now when m trying to run sh again, its not doing anything | 16:41 |
| Gaming4JC | mzz: Yes, what is strange was nepenthes does not appear on gnome-monitor. Evidently it was not binding properly in nepenthes because it was already running and bound to all the ports. I simply had to "sudo pkill nepenthes" and then "sudo nepenthes". Now I'm allowing a lot of ports on FireStarter and all is good. Netstat was confused as well. | 16:41 |
| neoline | mcphail: ohh! do i have to burn it?? I thought i could save a cd | 16:41 |
| neoline | dvd rather.. | 16:41 |
| mzz | Gaming4JC: sounds like your gnome-system-monitor is only showing you your own processes (iirc that's the default) | 16:42 |
| mzz | Gaming4JC: there's an "all processes" thing somewher | 16:42 |
| mzz | somewhere, even | 16:42 |
| mcphail | neoline: well, looks as if you're going to have to waste 10p on a disk! | 16:42 |
| sipior | neoline: did the script give an error message when it stopped? also, where did you mount the loopback filesystem? | 16:42 |

| dajhorn | helper: If you are trying to keep /var/log small, then consider doing it through the /etc/logrotate.d configuration. | 16:48 |
| tw3ak | I was wondering if anyone was familiar with media serving on ubuntu and maybe a media extender | 16:48 |

| ziroday | mercutio22: /var/log/syslog | 17:16 |
| ziroday | genii: on desktops it is | 17:16 |
| paav1 | i had the cd i ordered some years ago | 17:16 |
| TwoPointOh | ikonia: i want to see scd0 | 17:17 |
| ikonia | TwoPointOh: /dev on the initrd should be minimal | 17:17 |
| TwoPointOh | or sr0 | 17:17 |
| ziroday | genii: ikonia Flannel: oh woopsies, must of got my dates mixed up | 17:17 |
| ikonia | TwoPointOh: within the system, or the initrd ? | 17:17 |
| livingdaylight_ | ikonia: when i go to powermanagement it seems to be where i configure and set suspend and various power saving features | 17:17 |
| TwoPointOh | within the initrd | 17:17 |
| devius | ziroday: OK so how do i use the "EXA" | 17:17 |
| Flannel | paav1: Well, you can upgrade straight to 8.04. You should do so (or just download and burn 8.04 yourself) | 17:17 |
| ziroday | devius: you were using EXA before | 17:17 |
| ziroday | devius: I then switched you to UXA | 17:17 |
| tARrAScH | Are anybody else experiencing that decrementing/incrementing your system volume with the keyboard buttons will consume ridiculously much CPU due to the graphical message in the top right corner that have arrived since 9.04? | 17:17 |
| ikonia | livingdaylight_: sorry I should be cleary that's "power saving" or profiles, I'm talking about apmd which controls things like fans when your machine is hot | 17:17 |
| resno | Where can I find info on getting stats with webalizer? | 17:18 |
| devius | ziroday: so if i go back to exa....and skip the tests...it will improve performance? | 17:18 |
| ziroday | devius: no | 17:18 |
| psychic | can some one help me with some background image trouble? | 17:18 |
| nascentmind | ziroday, ati radeon hd4670 and jaunty | 17:18 |
| TwoPointOh | basically, i want to access a squashfs file that's on the cd | 17:18 |
| livingdaylight_ | ikonia: any way of fixing that, the heat coming off my laptof is rendering it unusable | 17:18 |
| TwoPointOh | i'm making a live distro | 17:18 |
| devius | ziroday: but the wiki says exa only? | 17:18 |
| TwoPointOh | based on ubuntu | 17:18 |
| mercutio22 | ziroday> when I got home today the numlock and capslock keys where blinking and the screen was unresponsive. Thats a kernel panic right? What king of info should I look for in syslog? | 17:19 |
| ziroday | nascentmind: sorry I got distracted, yes the closed and open source drivers should both work for that card. Let me doublecheck | 17:19 |
| ziroday | mercutio22: yep, and I would look for at the last few lines | 17:19 |
| ziroday | mercutio22: also /var/log/kern.log | 17:19 |
| paav1 | can i update to ubuntu 8 whitout cd | 17:19 |
| mercutio22 | ziroday> ok... lemme see | 17:19 |
| nascentmind | ziroday, it works alright but not 3d i guess.. is there any way i can check whats the progress on the card drivers? | 17:19 |
| BorkisDrizzt | how do I mirror my desktop on a projector? Have one plugged in right now, but seems like the only thing that works is using it as a extension of my desktop | 17:19 |
| mercutio22 | ziroday> I rebooted the system though... would the last few lines not relate to last boot? | 17:20 |
| devius | ziroday: but the wiki says exa only? | 17:20 |
| sweetde | can anyone help me? I upgraded vmware to 2, now it wont take my ubuntu login "You do not have permissions to login to the server." To me it looks like I'll have to enable root account, which Ubuntu says to be avoided at all costs | 17:20 |
| ziroday | nascentmind: okay, the closed source drivers support that card, and the open source drivers have experimental 3D support for that card | 17:21 |
| devius | ziroday: ..............but the wiki says exa only? | 17:21 |
| livingdaylight_ | ikonia: no? i was just looking at my system monitor. at least one of the cpu's is always 100% and i'm not even doing anything, other than irc right now | 17:21 |
| nascentmind | zined, how are you checking it? | 17:21 |
| M4d3L | sudo service networking restart doesnt reset my dns cache | 17:21 |
| nascentmind | ziroday, how are you checking it? | 17:22 |
| ziroday | devius: I saw you the first time, what part of that wikipage are you looking at? | 17:22 |

| devius | ziroday: Problematic hardware | 17:22 |
| Soulwarp | Hello. I installed the restricted extras package and i can't get java to work in my firefox browser. I have it enabled in my browser. | 17:23 |
| jim__ | Is there anything reasonably comparable to cpanel/plesk which is free and open? | 17:23 |
| ziroday | devius: sorry I'm slightly lost here, what don't you understand? | 17:23 |
| devius | ziroday: it says "XV does not play with XAA under compiz, only with EXA" and we r using XAA not EXA.....so y the switch at 1st | 17:23 |
| livingdaylight_ | ikonia: in top of what? | 17:23 |
| ikonia | livingdaylight_: use the command "top" | 17:23 |
| ziroday | devius: that is not in that wikipage, where are you reading that? | 17:24 |
| Improv | Hey all - can someone point me at a good reference for controlling naming of ethernet devices using udev? | 17:24 |

| pdtpatrick | M4d3L: sudo /etc/init.d/nscd restart | 17:24 |
| pdtpatrick | M4d3L: that would restart your name caching daemon | 17:24 |
| dajhorn | raven_: Look for the Eucalyptus project at the Ubuntu web site. | 17:24 |
| M4d3L | pdtpatrick: I did it. but I alway ping the old ip. :S | 17:24 |
| Improv | I have a cluster of machines that have 3 ethernet interfaces, one on mobo, 2 on a card, and I need the mobo ethernet to always get eth0. | 17:25 |
| mercutio22 | ziroday> I am suspitious of these lines. I had audit errors locking up my system before. What do you think? http://paste.ubuntu.com/176513/ | 17:25 |
| pdtpatrick | :M4d3L: check your hosts records .. /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts | 17:25 |
| ziroday | devius: right, and we were using EXA correct, now we are using UXA. Both give rubbish performance | 17:25 |
| Loki_Uni | Hi, I was rocking out with screen the other day and managed to get a grey bar at the bottom showing system stats, as well as the name of my current screen session. I could create new screen sessions by hitting F2 and naming them, and could scroll through them using F3 and F4. I can't remember how I did this unfortunately, and would like to do it again | 17:25 |
| raven_ | dajhorn tnx for the hint that sounds good | 17:25 |

| devius | ziroday: thanks anyway | 17:26 |
| JaneDoe | argh, I cannot get a share mounted with sudo mount. works from Places, Connect to server. anyone? | 17:26 |
| ziroday | mercutio22: hmm, I don't see anything particularly disturbing in those lines but I'm no kernel guru :) | 17:26 |
| mercutio22 | Loki_Uni> right click on gnome panel and add new panel? | 17:26 |
| M4d3L | how I can see what dns ip I use? | 17:26 |
| M4d3L | ifconfig doesnt show it | 17:26 |
| dajhorn | Improv: Read `man interfaces`, and put in the hwaddress option. | 17:26 |
| Loki_Uni | ziroday: that seems to be it, I think - do I just run say, 'screen-profiles lynx google.co.uk' and go from there? | 17:27 |
| pdtpatrick | M4d3L: cat /etc/resolv.conf | 17:27 |
| M4d3L | nvm! I found it | 17:27 |
| mercutio22 | ziroday> ok... I will look some more | 17:27 |
| ziroday | devius: reverting to the intel driver, or using a later version of the intel driver _may_ give you back your performance | 17:27 |

| paulo39 | hi, i'm having big problems with my internet connection. It suddenly disabled without any reason. i have hardy heron version and this happened after the installation of Win 7 in dual boot. i start a live session with installation cd and i dont have net too in live session :| | 17:27 |
| nascentmind | ziroday, any chances of installing a dbg version of jockey or envy? | 17:27 |
| paulo39 | can you help me? i dont understand where is the problem | 17:27 |
| ziroday | Loki_Uni: no, screen-profiles is the configuration application | 17:27 |
| ziroday | nascentmind: err which driver do you want to use, fglrx or radeonhd? | 17:28 |
| paulo39 | and, over that, if i start then Win 7 (in the same pc) i have net connection without problems. but in ubuntu it just dont work | 17:28 |
| nascentmind | ziroday, fglrx.. but then i will revert to radeonhd as it looks way stable and better. | 17:28 |
| Loki_Uni | ziroday: ok - gonna do some googling on usage. Thanks! :) | 17:28 |
| livingdaylight_ | ikonia: hi, yea, cpu use is down now and i don't have a jet engine running sound going on as before | 17:28 |
| devius | ziroday: can u help me get the new one up and running | 17:28 |
| ikonia | livingdaylight_: great | 17:29 |
| ziroday | nascentmind: err okay. To install the fglrx drivers do sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx | 17:29 |
| LukaszJ | Hello there | 17:29 |
| livingdaylight_ | why would firefox make my laptop do that ikonia | 17:29 |
| ziroday | devius: new what sorry? | 17:29 |
| livingdaylight_ | ikonia: should i try another browser? | 17:29 |
| devius | ziroday: new intel driver | 17:29 |
| pdtpatrick | paulo39: did you install windows first and then ubuntu or did you install ubuntu and then windows. You might want to install ubuntu first then create a partition for windows to use and make sure it uses that partition upon installation. Btw .. i would suggest running windows 7 in a VM and not dual since it is only a RC for now | 17:29 |
| ziroday | devius: sure, see https://launchpad.net/~intel-gfx-testing/+archive/ppa | 17:30 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: yes this happens to me as well | 17:30 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: sometimes here and there, not so bad at the moment | 17:30 |
| LukaszJ | My question is rather weird: Installed Jaunty and found out all the icons, especially the ones on the panels got bigger. Is there any way to customize that? | 17:30 |
| livingdaylight_ | pdtpatrick: usually its recommended to install windows first | 17:30 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: the Firefox in Ubuntu can cause high CPU usage | 17:30 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: is that on your laptop? | 17:30 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: make the computer really slow, make it unusable even | 17:31 |
| pdtpatrick | how do you send private messages again? | 17:31 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: make my music sound bad, if I am playing music even | 17:31 |

| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: i thought FF was a top browser :/ | 17:31 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: never noticed on my Desktop, but on this laptop its become unbearable | 17:31 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: usually the version in Ubuntu works great for people, but it is not the one for Linux that directly comes from Mozilla | 17:31 |
| paulo39 | pdtpatrick, i had ubuntu and installed win7 in a separete partition. but, what can that affect the ubuntu net connection? | 17:32 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: sounds bad | 17:32 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: every other app works fine, except for that one | 17:32 |
| devius | ziroday: so what do i do there? | 17:32 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: have you found a working alternative... i'm so hooked to various add-ons :/ | 17:32 |
| nascentmind | ziroday, i am following this elaborate ritual http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Jaunty_Installation_Guide | 17:32 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: usualy problems if got a lot of tabs open, or Flash in them even | 17:32 |
| tv7497 | guys could you help me , there is a problem with amarok its not playing at all , it starts it loads the song into playlist and everything but the song doesn't play it stops after i double click it i use jaunty and a regular user of amarok from feisty | 17:32 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: that's me :) | 17:33 |
| pdtpatrick | paulo39: what happens when u run ifconfig? also upon bootup .. do you get errors in your log file about network? | 17:33 |
| hateball | tv7497: any other programs hogging the soundcard, such as firefox+adobe flash? | 17:33 |
| === ursula__ is now known as Ursinha | ||
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: ,because of browser market share reasons, I would recommend people use Firefox, even though there are other good browsers out there as well | 17:33 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: i never noticed or knew before -thx.. .Ubuntu should have a big warning label about this then | 17:33 |
| ziroday | devius: you add the PPA and then update, as the instructions suggest | 17:33 |
| paulo39 | pdtpatrick, i get an output abou eth0 and vboxnet and things like that | 17:33 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: you could try the version for Linux that is directly from Mozilla, do the beta or whatever it is now of what will become 3.5 if you want even | 17:34 |
| ziroday | nascentmind: I'm sorry I have to go now :) | 17:34 |
| tv7497 | hateball: well stopped everything from my vbox to fire fox except my pidgin | 17:34 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: and install the tar.gz version ? | 17:34 |
| hateball | tv7497: Alright. Tried starting amaroK from a terminal to see any error output? | 17:34 |
| devius | ziroday: aha | 17:34 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: as for add ons I expect Seamonkey would support most of them | 17:34 |
| tv7497 | hateball: just a min | 17:34 |
| SetiAmon | I seem to have no Alsamixer,is that why i have no sound in ubuntu? | 17:34 |
| Adrian | Hola Gente | 17:35 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: how about opera or seamonkey? | 17:35 |
| livingdaylight_ | Adrian: !hola | 17:35 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: maybe again for market share reasons Opera would be the better choice, since it's like the 3rd most used browser, however Opera is closed source and bloated so hum | 17:35 |

| klenix | i just installed seamonkey browser via terminal, but this application couldn't run. can anybody help me? | 17:36 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: ,but Seamonkey can probalby use most of your Firefox add ons, since that's based on the Mozilla Suite, which was before Firefox. Mozilla Suite didn't gain much market share, but it lives on as Seamonkey | 17:36 |
| tv7497 | hateball: http://paste.ubuntu.com/176524/ and forgot to let you know that i have reinstalled amarok 4-5 time | 17:36 |
| sebsebseb | klenix: what application? | 17:37 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: i tried seamonkey on Desktop, apart from the fact it was ugly, it too apparently has issues working in Ubuntu and i couldn't install my Diigo toolbar for eg (themes neither) | 17:37 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: I been using Seamonkey a lot recently and it works well, but I prefer Galeon or Epiphany more | 17:37 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: Konqueror is quite nice also really | 17:37 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: except i'm in gnome | 17:38 |
| klenix | sebsebseb:seamonkey | 17:38 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: you can run KDE apps in Gnome | 17:38 |
| stoyan | exit | 17:38 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: good idea to try the tar.gz from Mozilla, to see if that works better or not | 17:38 |
| hateball | tv7497: weird... doesnt seem to give any soundrelated errors. tried restarting alsa-utils ? | 17:38 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: k, thx | 17:38 |
| livingdaylight_ | Adrian: que passa amigo? | 17:38 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: and should start over with a new profile, I assume .mozilla in home, would also be used by Mozilla's version | 17:39 |

| paulo39 | http://pastebin.com/d16b4aa08 | 17:40 |

| Gimped | jeniffer: maybe you need to install msfonts =? just a guess | 17:40 |
| ziroday | devius: I need to run now sorry, just do an update normally | 17:40 |

| psychic | why does my background image only display in black and white scale | 17:41 |
| jeniffer | Gimped i will try, then! | 17:41 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: ,but if you use Ubuntu's version all of a sudden, I think they would both use same profile not sure, something I was going to do was do Mozilla's version, but the other browsers are nice to :) ,but i'll try to use Firefox mainly still | 17:41 |
| devius | ziroday: ok just one last thing......is there anything for me to do in the xorg.conf file | 17:41 |
| Gimped | jeniffer: gl | 17:41 |
| devius | ziroday: ofcourse after the update | 17:41 |

| jeniffer | Gimped i did nont understand the last you said | 17:41 |
| ziroday | devius: nope | 17:42 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: than the KDE4 one, you could install the KDE3 version if your on 9.04 | 17:42 |

| devius | ziroday: thanks man | 17:42 |

| DasEi | SetiAmon:which soundcard ? | 17:44 |
| tv7497 | hateball: well amarok series 1 was far better than the new 2 it sucks everything is made glossy and the main feature of the setting turning amarok into what you want is taken away why on earth they wanna do like this its really frustrating when a major part of system your music is taken away ! its like a window made product ! ( sorry for my language but really pissed right now that amaork is not working :( ) | 17:44 |
| devius | ziroday: i updated but nothing changed, is a restart required | 17:44 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: Add/Remove is the most newbie thing in Ubuntu, just use Synaptic people or commands to install programs :) system > administaration > synaptic package manager | 17:44 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: its a fast browser apparently... (light) Add/Remove <---what's thte difference? | 17:44 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: Add/Remove is just a cut down version of Synaptic | 17:45 |
| devius | ziroday: or maybe i should remove that part we wrote earlier in the xorg.conf file ?? | 17:45 |
| psychic | anyone? | 17:45 |

| pegon | tv7497, did you try install amarok 1.4? | 17:45 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: not all programs will be there, and it's not exatly hard to install programs with commands? sudo apt-get install programname | 17:45 |
| tv7497 | pegon: can we ? | 17:45 |
| hateball | tv7497: Well I'm sorry, cant help you troubleshoot much more. I use cmus or mocp for playing music so :) | 17:45 |
| devius | psychic: ? | 17:45 |
| pegon | tv7497, yeah I am in jaunty and I found instructions to install amarok 1.4 cause I didn't like the second one either | 17:45 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: make sure those two graphical programs are closed though when doing commands, or you get error, since they are just a GUI for the commands | 17:46 |
| psychic | devius all of my background images are appearing in b&w its all gray scale | 17:46 |
| devius | psychic: oh waw thats kool :P.....dunno how to help sry xD | 17:47 |
| tv7497 | pegon: exactly whats wrong with amarok now a days ? there cross platform dream has taken too much out of them ! ask them to forget about writing for mac ! they are spoiling a great piece of s/w and by the way how did you install it sir ? 1.4 in jaunty ? | 17:47 |

| SetiAmon | DasEi:x-fi music | 17:48 |
| soulfreshner | is there a way to upgrade to 64 bit without having to reinstall? | 17:49 |
| paulo39 | whatvn, are you whatvn_? | 17:49 |
| sebsebseb | soulfreshner: you can't change 32bit to 64bit without re installing | 17:49 |
| pegon | tv7497, lol i don't like amarok 2 because mine wouldn't play any mp3 at all I couldn't get the dang thing to work...and heres how to do it in kubuntu, but should work in xubuntu and normal ubuntu http://helpforlinux.blogspot.com/2009/05/get-amarok-14-in-kubuntu-904.html | 17:49 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: that might be hard, as half a year ago some models weren't supported .. exact model ? | 17:49 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: well, its the laptop so, i'm ok to experiment | 17:49 |
| maginot | Good afternoon. Could someone please tell me if when printing from evince if it goes through cups and them if the generated ps file goes to /usr/bin/lp for printing?? Thks | 17:49 |
| SetiAmon | I forget,X-fi music or audio i forget which. | 17:49 |
| dansku | anyone know a good way to create .torrent via the terminal??? | 17:50 |
| soulfreshner | so I need to get the CD image, I suppose :( - even though I have the entire repo on my HDD? | 17:50 |
| SetiAmon | there is a beta driver i'm trying to download right now. | 17:50 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: well try and use Firefox on sites that matter more, so they get Firefox in their website statistics :) | 17:50 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: lspci | grepaudio | 17:50 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: lspci | grep audio * | 17:50 |
| whatvn | paulo39: yes. my computer has some problems. can you run this command: cat /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf | grep mtu, show me the output | 17:50 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: because we want to make FF #1 | 17:51 |
| livingdaylight_ | ? | 17:51 |
| tv7497 | pegon: exactly any reason why its not playing any mp3 at all ? please dont tell me it only supports ogg | 17:51 |
| SetiAmon | Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB X-Fi | 17:51 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: ,because IE has most of the market, and browsers that aren't that known, people aren't just going to test websites in | 17:51 |
| paulo39 | whatvn, there is a problem | 17:51 |
| paulo39 | i just have one pc | 17:51 |
| crom09 | hello, sometimes (specially when using totem or something graphics-related) my computer starts running very slow. | 17:51 |
| === Mariele is now known as Guest47471 | ||
| whatvn | paulo39: so? | 17:51 |
| crom09 | The system monitor shows 1 cpu goiong 100% | 17:51 |
| === bruno is now known as Guest83378 | ||
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: for it to be #1 it also needs to deserve that place and if its microwaving my laptop and generarlly a hog on Ubuntu then why give it support? | 17:52 |
| crom09 | even if i close all programs | 17:52 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: IE does not follow web standards properly http://www.w3.org http://www.webstandards.org and there are still some stupid sites only made for IE | 17:52 |
| paulo39 | so, i'll turn off my current session on win7 to boot on ubuntu to do that and rebbot again to come here report to you the output | 17:52 |
| crom09 | and if i look at the processes tab, no app is using the cpu | 17:52 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: really, i thought FF was ubiquitous now | 17:52 |
| crom09 | any help? | 17:52 |
| paulo39 | so | 17:52 |
| whatvn | paulo39: ohh, I see | 17:52 |
| pegon | tv7497, i have no idea...i just installed amarok 1.4 and uninstalled amarok 2 and it works fine now | 17:52 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: ,because that isn't even the version that is directly from Mozila? it is similar, but Ubuntu have done one or two changes to it I think, but not entirely sure | 17:52 |
| paulo39 | i can do that, but, can you wait about 3 or 5 min? | 17:52 |
| whatvn | no, dont need | 17:53 |
| crom09 | any idea of where i can ask help for this? | 17:53 |
| dansku | anyone know a good way to create .torrent via the terminal??? | 17:53 |
| paulo39 | or you give some more extra commands you think i should o and i do it all at the same time | 17:53 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: so, its Ubuntu's fault? hrmm... the browser is quite an important application these days after al | 17:53 |
| whatvn | paulo39: I just ask you some question. 1. did you edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf before? | 17:53 |
| vigo | crom09: What other apps or sustems are running? | 17:53 |
| livingdaylight_ | *all | 17:53 |
| sp0ckk | dansku: Can rtorrent do that, perhaps? | 17:53 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: our issue there may just be an issue with their version, we can only know for sure if it's a Firefox 3 issue by using the version that is directly from Mozilla | 17:53 |
| shaman_cabal | hi all, I'm trying to install ubuntu from a live cd. I've got one 160GB and a 700GB drive. The 160GB has Windows on it and that's where I'd like to install it. However, partitioning stage, dual-boot it shows only my 700GB drive and says "No other operating systems installed".. So do I need to partition the 160GB manually? Which ones are important for Ubuntu (swap/ext4/jfs/etc...) | 17:53 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: I don't know who's fault it is | 17:54 |
| crom09 | nothing, even if I close everything the problem persists and i have to log out | 17:54 |
| devius | hey....why is it that every time i restart my desktop effects are removed and replaced with the option "NONE" | 17:54 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: ,but I know that Firefox can be buggy here and there sometimes | 17:54 |
| DanaG | I've tweaked my boot down to 29 seconds (by profiling)... but is there anything more I can do? | 17:54 |
| DanaG | www.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette/bootchart | 17:54 |
| paulo39 | hum... i'm not certain, but i think not. yesterday, someone told me to edit etc/network/interfaces | 17:54 |
| DanaG | check out the last one -- odd 5-second pause. | 17:54 |
| vigo | crom09: How many OSs are on that box? | 17:54 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: hey, Konqueror looks awight here! | 17:54 |
| crom09 | vigo: just ubunto 9.04 | 17:55 |
| paulo39 | but, i made a back up and restore it in the final | 17:55 |
| crom09 | new computer | 17:55 |
| paulo39 | because the changes didnt work | 17:55 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: bloated big? heavy? you mean? | 17:55 |
| tv7497 | pegon: mate here is the solution they totally forgot to import libxine1-ffmpeg when amarok package is selected well try this this would work sudo apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg its working like gem ! | 17:55 |
| crom09 | vigo: i suspect it is some problem with the graphic card | 17:55 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: Konqueror is also a file manager :) | 17:55 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: I'm still searching in meanwhile; could you install alsamixergui ? | 17:55 |
| crom09 | vigo: but i don't know what to do | 17:55 |
| vigo | crom09: I am unsure but something sounds really wrong there, is it a laptop? | 17:55 |
| pegon | tv7497, might have to try it but overall I still like the old one versus the new one | 17:55 |
| whatvn | paulo39: so if you like, try sudo gedit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf , find mtu-interfaces, remove it. then sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 17:56 |
| crom09 | vigo: desktop | 17:56 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: meaning it looks surprisingly nice to what i remember it looking (klunky-note the 'k') and especially in gnome environement | 17:56 |
| pegon | tv7497, the new one reminds me of something I would see in Windows | 17:56 |
| tv7497 | pegon: exactly ! they should strip it back to way it was !! | 17:56 |
| crom09 | vigo: you know where i could look for help? | 17:56 |
| vigo | crom09: Are all the fans and Heatsinks clean or air out? | 17:56 |
| pegon | tv7497, exactly | 17:56 |
| paulo39 | ok, mtu-interfaces is a line on /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf? | 17:57 |
| pegon | tv7497, this new one looks too much like that made it look prettier then actually work better | 17:57 |
| crom09 | vigo: yes + i can see the temperature of the card and it's ok | 17:57 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: not that many websites get tested with KHTML though, Konquerors rendering engine, but does not matter that much, since KHTML does a pretty good job at following web standards anyway. KHTML is also what Webkit is based on what Apple's Safari and Google's Chrome uses, if you didn't know. and Mozilla and Netscape use Gecko. Opera uses presto, and yes I know quite a bit about browsers :d | 17:57 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: ? | 17:57 |
| whatvn | paulo39: no, it just a phrase. between many phrases if it exists | 17:57 |
| tv7497 | pegon: amarok is moving into mac right so they need to make it pretty :D | 17:57 |
| paulo39 | ok | 17:58 |
| DanaG | hmm, anything I can do to speed up my boot? | 17:58 |
| DanaG | Oh, and it seems usplash breaks badly under efifb. | 17:58 |
| pegon | tv7497, yeah cause mac is mainly about making stuff purty then actually running good lol | 17:58 |
| devius | hey....why is it that every time i restart my desktop effects are removed and replaced with the option "NONE" | 17:58 |
| hemanth | share files between two ubuntu machines on different networks ?? | 17:58 |
| DasEi | hemanth (hi you) : samba or nfs | 17:59 |
| vigo | crom09: You can always look at Launchpad, to see if any others have reported this, that would be the first thing I would check, heatsinks and stuff, maybe is a loose cord /IIDE , or something, but that is just odd for CPU at 100% on a fresh and clean machine. | 17:59 |
| paulo39 | whatvn, and do you want me to put on pastebin some output of some command after do that? | 17:59 |
| hemanth | DasEi: samba | 17:59 |
| whatvn | paulo39: what you add into /etc/network/interfaces | 17:59 |
| tv7497 | pegon: any ways mate nice meeting you :) i would better catch up with ipl , too good match today | 17:59 |
| crom09 | ok, thx | 17:59 |
| pegon | tv7497, likewise man you have a good one and nice talking with you :) | 18:00 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: tells me that i have javascript disabled | 18:00 |
| crom09 | vigo: the thing is that i can't reproduce it at will, but it has happened several times | 18:00 |
| kryl | hi, does anybody use dinovo edge keyboard with 9.04 here ? My keyboard run well since boot, but when ubuntu is fully loaded I need to unplug the USB key and reinsert this one again to make the keyboard running good. ??? | 18:00 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: I don't use Konqueror that much, and before I had one or two odd issues with it, but otherwise, sure it's a good one | 18:00 |
| SetiAmon | Daesi:sorry i was looking away.I just installed the beta x-fi driver like it said | 18:00 |
| whatvn | paulo39: no. after restart networking, if you can connect to internet, you succeed | 18:00 |
| djx | hello | 18:00 |
| paulo39 | whatvn, i put auto eth0 before iface eth0 ... | 18:00 |
| djx | could any1 help me? | 18:00 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: go in it's settings and see if javascript is enabled maybe? | 18:01 |
| DasEi | hemanth: you install samba on both machines, then have to edit smb.conf, see | 18:01 |
| djx | what i need to listen radio online on ubuntu? | 18:01 |
| DasEi | !samba | 18:01 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 18:01 |
| vigo | crom09: Please remember that 9,04 is still beta, so Launchpad is the place to report such activity and also to find solutions. | 18:01 |
| SetiAmon | DaesEi:I already intalled alsamixergui but in terminal when i type alsamixer it says it isn't installed | 18:01 |
| sebsebseb | djx: right ok | 18:01 |
| sebsebseb | !details | djx | 18:01 |
| ubottu | djx: 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 ..." | 18:01 |
| DasEi | djx : amaork or streamtuner | 18:01 |
| DasEi | amarok | 18:01 |
| hemanth | DasEi: can I use netcat ? | 18:01 |
| djx | what i need to listen radio online on ubuntu 9.04? | 18:01 |
| gaveen | djx, amarok or mplayer | 18:01 |
| sebsebseb | DasEi: or a website, I know of one, and then mplayer plugin for Firefox, should do it I think yeah | 18:01 |
| whatvn | paulo39: so keep it, remove phrase mtu-interfaces, restart networking and see if it works. no exactly It will work or not | 18:01 |
| mcphail | vigo: 9.04 isn't beta | 18:02 |
| crom09 | ububtu 9.04 is beta? | 18:02 |
| sebsebseb | crom09: no | 18:02 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: it seems to be, so, i'm asking in #kubuntu to see what's up with that | 18:02 |
| djx | downloanding and intalling | 18:02 |
| DasEi | hemanth: what for ? | 18:02 |
| vigo | crom94: Sure sounds like a bad connector or lagging fan , but that is hardware. | 18:02 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: ever tried Lynx or Links? | 18:02 |
| hemanth | DasEi: sending files b/w tow hosts in different n/w | 18:02 |
| vigo | My bad, 9,04 is a release. | 18:02 |
| crom09 | :) | 18:03 |
| DasEi | or even divx plugin or vlc or.. :) sebsebseb | 18:03 |
| crom09 | anyway i'll have a look at launchpad | 18:03 |
| SetiAmon | DaDaesi:it now says i have creative alsa mixer but no sound is playing.I'm going to log out and back in and see if that does anything brb(btw this is the first distro i ran in 10 years,I'm rusty) | 18:03 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: heard of it... is that in command line? | 18:03 |
| paulo39 | after that i restore that file (etc/network/interfaces) so you think i should change again and put auto eth0 before iface eth0... and then make the commands you gave me a few minutes ago and see if i get results.. is that? | 18:03 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: they run in the terminal yeah and are text only, try them, something about a text only browser :d | 18:03 |
| sebsebseb | livingdaylight_: of course I would use a graphical one normalley, but text only can be quite fun to try | 18:04 |
| livingdaylight_ | sebsebseb: ugh :s too esoteric that | 18:04 |
| djx | gaveen thanks it works :D | 18:04 |
| whatvn | paulo39: try whatever you think it's right, but remember backup first | 18:04 |
| paulo39 | ok | 18:04 |
| gaveen | sebsebseb, elinks is better than links | 18:04 |
| ChewingGum | ? | 18:04 |
| gaveen | djx, np :) | 18:05 |
| DasEi | hemanth : ssh for the connection, then rsync, curl or wget it | 18:05 |
| SetiAmon | although i appreciate the multitasking ability of pidgin i really need to install a better irc agent :| anyhow | 18:05 |
| hemanth | DasEi: an example would help me more | 18:05 |
| whatvn | SetiAmon: I use Xchat | 18:06 |
| DasEi | hemanth: what will that be for ? staedy webserving ? just a single file transfer ? | 18:06 |
| SetiAmon | DasEi:progress,i was greated with intro audio i didn't have before! my mp3s still won't play | 18:06 |
| system404 | so anyone know how to get microsoft sam on ubuntu i like to use him for prank calls | 18:06 |
| fulat2k | hi folks, how do i completely turn off my laptop's display? | 18:06 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: I searched meanwhile; could you install alsamixergui ? | 18:06 |
| system404 | SetiAmon u need the restricted codecs | 18:06 |
| hemanth | DasEi: just file | 18:06 |
| SetiAmon | I already installed alsamixergui Daesei | 18:06 |
| whatvn | SetiAmon: and you installed enough codecs before? | 18:07 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: does it show your s-card correctly ? | 18:07 |
| system404 | SetiAmon have you installed the restricted codecs | 18:07 |
| asus | hi | 18:07 |
| Uqbar | system404: apt-cache show espeak | 18:07 |
| asus | i have a proplem | 18:07 |
| vmtesk | hi guys, i have a problem with vmware workstation 6.5.2 | 18:07 |
| SetiAmon | system404:when i went to add/remove and "ubuntu restricted" or whatever its called it says it can't be installed because it is conflicting with a existing package and to open synaptic package manager,anyhow I have no idea what to do at that point | 18:08 |
| vmtesk | once i install it, modules are compiled ok, only that vmnet service does not start | 18:08 |
| vmtesk | anybody know what the problem is with vmware virtual ethernet service? | 18:08 |
| === element is now known as Guest42377 | ||
| system404 | SetiAmon remove the conflicting package then install the restriceted codecs | 18:08 |
| SetiAmon | someone had me download 'lame' or whatever its called.and rythembox downloaded the mp3 plugin. it acts like it is playing,it moves but no sound comes from it | 18:08 |
| gaveen | system404, if you are asking about a speech synthesis, I'm not sure how to get the specific one. But you can use festival package | 18:08 |
| SetiAmon | How can i tell which package is conflicting system404,i got symaptic loaded up now | 18:09 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: does alsamixergui show your s-card correctly ? | 18:09 |
| SetiAmon | let me check dasEi,btw i installed x-fi which says "xfi-alsamixer) | 18:09 |
| DanaG | hmm, anything I can do to speed up my boot? | 18:09 |
| nascentmind | Can somebody verify whether step 4 is correct here in install .deb section? http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Jaunty_Installation_Guide | 18:09 |
| DanaG | www.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette/bootchart | 18:09 |

| DanaG | latest should be at bottom. | 18:09 |
| system404 | type restricted in the search bar and see which restricted packs you have installed | 18:10 |
| dan2 | is jaunty worth upgrading to? | 18:10 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: so the corrrect driver should be loaded, if gui shows card correctly | 18:10 |
| devius | hey....why is it that every time i restart my desktop effects are removed and replaced with the option "NONE" | 18:10 |
| SetiAmon | its red in pcm,in alsamixergui | 18:10 |
| === Dykam_ is now known as Dykam | ||
| SetiAmon | yes it shows x-fi | 18:10 |
| DasEi | hemanth: you could install samba on one machine, allow remote access and then define a share (a folder) where remote files might be copied to | 18:11 |
| system404 | remove any instaled restricted packs and install the ubuntu restricted extras | 18:11 |
| hemanth | DasEi: is static ip a must ? | 18:12 |
| yaris123456789 | say i pulled getElementsByTag("p"), and i want to display everything in side the <p> in cluding the <p>, how do i do it ? | 18:12 |
| SetiAmon | Wait sound in system,admin now plays if i change it from auto to creative let me see if changing all that will work btw which should i choose it says creative alsa driver waveout/wavein (alsa) and the same except (OSS) ? | 18:12 |
| DasEi | SetiAmon: go with 404 then, or just use cmd-line : sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 18:12 |
| mcphail | yaris123456789: wrong channel | 18:12 |
| system404 | sorry if my advice is vague but im new to ubuntu but i had same problem so i know wat u need to do the steps exactly to get there im a lil woozy with sorry | 18:13 |
| mobilehuman | Hiyas, I have a laptop that I plug into external displays. I mostly use it at home with a CRT. I plugged it into an LCD at school, and the display cut of the menus at top and bottom. now I plug it into the same CRT at home that worked right before, and it cuts off the top and bottom menus like the LCD dit | 18:13 |
| SetiAmon | :D I got it working | 18:13 |
| DasEi | hemanth: no, but you'll have to use a dns-service then to resolve the hostname | 18:13 |
| system404 | well done SetiAmon | 18:13 |
| Pie` | How come when trying to install the drivers for the nvidia 8600gt, it returns a 404 error on the file ? | 18:14 |
| SetiAmon | listening to my mp3s now,I just turned it to OSS,any real difference between creative's Alsa and OSS it sounds the same to me | 18:14 |
| hemanth | DasEi: ned to do port forwarding and all then :( | 18:14 |
| mcphail | SetiAmon: OSS is a primitive deprecated system. Don't use it if you have another choice | 18:15 |
| SetiAmon | hey you know what,this sounds a helluva lot better then it does in windows,now why is the audio so much better in linux with this beta driver then in windows with the updated drivers? | 18:15 |
| SetiAmon | I remember oss from 10 years ago when i was using SuSE,i thought it was good,ok switching | 18:15 |
| Bashiii | Could someone recommend an mp3 player which would have a working web ui of some sorts, as well as last.fm scrobbling? (With or without plugins) | 18:15 |
| ikonia | SetiAmon: it could just be your perception, or the codec used to play back | 18:15 |
| DasEi | hemanth: it's some work, but you can create a user samba (f.i.) and give it an own, restricted account | 18:16 |
| Pie` | Bashii, Rhythmbox has a nice last.fm plugin | 18:16 |
| Pie` | Not sure about the web-ui | 18:16 |
| SetiAmon | ok i just changed all to alsa | 18:16 |
| sebsebseb | Bashiii: as does Banshee :) | 18:16 |
| DasEi | !amarok | Bashiii | 18:16 |
| gaveen | Bashiii, songbird | 18:16 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about amarok | 18:16 |
| system404 | Pie i agree i use rythmbox lastfm plugin i find very easy to use and very suficiant for my needs | 18:16 |
| Bashiii | Well, the web-ui is the most important part... | 18:16 |
| SetiAmon | nah the audio is superior,in windows it was always low sound and washed out.i never liked it and i have expensive headphones | 18:16 |
| sebsebseb | Rythombox now thanks, that was before Banshee became good | 18:16 |
| SetiAmon | Ok here is another problem | 18:16 |
| system404 | go ahead SetiAmon | 18:16 |
| hemanth | DasEi: http://my.opera.com/ubuntunerd1/blog/share-files-between-two-ubuntu-computers-via-ssh can this method be used | 18:17 |
| sebsebseb | Rythombox no these days, Banshee yes | 18:17 |
| Bashiii | last.fm is supported by many, if not most, well known mp3 players | 18:17 |
| Pie` | Same system404, I like the "fetch neighbours playlist" option which selects a list of songs similar to your tastes | 18:17 |
| DasEi | hemanth: yes, as said above, depends on your needs | 18:17 |
| sebsebseb | Bashiii: Banshee is great with last.fm | 18:17 |
| SetiAmon | the audio is playing fine,but my multimedia controls are not having effect,i turn the knob on my keyboard,it shows it changing the volume,muting etc but it doesn't effect it in actuality,whats the deal? | 18:17 |
| Pie` | How come when trying to install the drivers for the nvidia 8600gt, it returns a 404 error on the file ? | 18:17 |
| Bashiii | sebsebseb: possible to get web-ui or some sort of remote control for it? | 18:17 |
| e1luca | Ati released a new video driver (9.5) anyone try that on 9.04 64bit? | 18:18 |
| Steven | What programs allow me to create things with Perl in Ubuntu? | 18:18 |

| pegon | Does anyone know of a media grabber that you can go to a site and it grabs the flv like youtube or mp3s etc? Kind of like Replay Media Catcher in Windows...just curious | 18:19 |

| Pie` | does anyone know if theres an apt package for the nvidia X server ? | 18:19 |
| system404 | Pegon go to keepvid.com | 18:19 |
| pegon | system404, I know that I was tryin to find a program to auto do it | 18:19 |
| gaveen | Bashiii, XMMS2 have a web-ui and also last.fm support | 18:20 |
| system404 | it will let u download the flv or mp4 format of any youtube video u copy link and bam it downloads | 18:20 |
| system404 | ohhh | 18:20 |
| Bashiii | Have to give it a try | 18:20 |
| whatvn | HoldenC: not work :) | 18:20 |
| system404 | Pegon google youtube downloader linux theres lots of them | 18:20 |
| pegon | system404, k | 18:20 |
| mcphail | Pie`: don't think there is a .deb. The drivers are downloaded automatically now | 18:20 |
| HoldenC | whatvn right use manpage then :) | 18:20 |
| system404 | Pegon: once u find one u wana try just search for it in synaptic walla | 18:21 |
| DasEi | hemanth: for a halfaway secure share I don't think so; else can set up a webserver where users can log in (too much for just a file!) but more convient for the client | 18:21 |
| whatvn | HoldenC: I did, and it is < and > :) | 18:21 |
| hemanth | DasEi: ok :) thanks | 18:21 |
| HoldenC | whatvn and doesn't it work? | 18:22 |
| whatvn | HoldenC: oh. no. <> not work too | 18:22 |
| DasEi | hemanth: there are still protocolls like vsftp or ftp,but they are hassle or unsecure then, morethen ssh | 18:22 |
| Holden99ca | Hi! I'm doing a "clean install" of jaunty to overwrite an existing ext3 partition. can anyone tell me what I put for the mount point? | 18:22 |
| Pie` | mcphail, if they are downloaded automatically, why is the package returning a 404 error when I try to download it? :( | 18:22 |
| sebsebseb | Holden99ca: depends how your installing | 18:22 |
| mcphail | Pie`: maybe the nvidia servers are down just now | 18:23 |
| HoldenC | whatvn what command are you using? | 18:23 |
| sebsebseb | Holden99ca: your in partition editor or manual install or what? | 18:23 |
| hemanth | DasEi: had tried dyndns | 18:23 |
| Pie` | W: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/l/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24/nvidia-glx-new_169.12+2.6.24.13-18.41_i386.deb 404 Not Found | 18:23 |

| hoymkot | I want to setup a new print, but the program can't start, I type system-config-printer in the terminal, it says it is missing dbus.py, what should i do? | 18:23 |
| Bashiii | gaveen: xmms2 have any sort of a gui? | 18:23 |
| whatvn | HoldenC: haha, just hit enter and forward to next song | 18:23 |
| Bashiii | Or is it possible to get a gui on it? | 18:23 |
| sebsebseb | Holden99ca: what I would do is just set it up in partition editor first the partitions, so get rid of your Ext3 yeah | 18:23 |
| sebsebseb | Holden99ca: after any data is backed up of course | 18:24 |
| DasEi | hemanth: and succeeded, as I found | 18:24 |
| sebsebseb | Holden99ca: make your new partition, then go to manual install and format, and decide what they are going to be used for there | 18:24 |
| HoldenC | whatvn perfect | 18:24 |
| mcphail | Pie`: nvidia-glx-new isn't in jaunty. Are you using an old version of ubuntu? | 18:24 |
| sebsebseb | HoldenC: if you do it like this, you don't need to put a mountpoint in partition editor | 18:24 |
| gaveen | Bashiii, it can have different GUI fontends as well as a web-ui. Works in client-server configuration | 18:24 |
| hemanth | DasEi: was unable to do port fwdg | 18:24 |
| Pie` | uh, 8.04 | 18:24 |
| sebsebseb | HoldenC: and the partitions don't need labels either | 18:25 |
| Bashiii | Have to read up a bit, but thansk :) | 18:25 |
| Bashiii | thanks* | 18:25 |
| DasEi | hemanth: do you host your website yourself ? | 18:25 |
| Holden99ca | yeah I think I'm at that point now but I think it's asking for the ext3 mount point and I don't know what do select. | 18:25 |

| Severity1 | i made mine work | 18:32 |
| hawk | Steven: Perl is an interpreted language... you just run the script using the perl commmand | 18:32 |
| Steven | Which is? | 18:32 |
| arand | Steven: perl | 18:32 |
| === mib_9sokeu is now known as Qgarden | ||
| Steven | hahaha | 18:32 |
| arand | afaik | 18:32 |
| Steven | I wish they'd make a big program for this | 18:32 |
| Steven | ah well | 18:32 |
| patrik | mib_9sokeu, the load on the drives is going to be pretty low since it's mostly source code I'm backing up, but stacking them on top of each other is never a good idea. | 18:33 |
| hawk | Steven: "perl thescript.pl", or using the normal "shebang" mechanism if you just want to run the script itself. | 18:33 |
| DasEi | Steven:that goes about scripting, you need a texteditor,correct syntax,save with correct suffic,have interpreter installed (default) , run it | 18:33 |
| Severity1 | is perl easy to learn? | 18:34 |
| Ryunix | i am going to be moving alot of ext3 files to an ext4 partition with extents. Is there anyway for those files to have extents enabled? if i copy not move the files over will the files be re-written to ext4 with extents? | 18:34 |
| Pici | Severity1: Try askin in #perl | 18:34 |
| Holden99ca | hi again sebseb. I think I mislead you. I already have an install of jaunty on the hd but it's messed up and I'm trying to do a clean re-install on my dual-boot. I'm installing from live cd and I'm figuring I need to specify the partitions manually but it's not allowing my to move forward with the install unless I specify the mount points. | 18:34 |
| jrib | Severity1: personally, I'd look at perl, python, ruby, and haskell and choose the one that you like the best | 18:34 |

| th0r | zek: you should be able to see the device definition by watching while you plug the thing in the usb port. Open a terminal, type 'tail -f /var/log/messages', then plug in the usb device and see if that helps | 18:51 |

| ubottu | NvidiaUser: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo).

| erUSUL | mjm521: it can take several ours depending on the data moving around | 19:21 |
| mjm521 | oh ok... | 19:21 |
| erUSUL | mjm521: it can take several hours depending on the data moving around | 19:21 |
| mjm521 | that re-assures me | 19:21 |
| neoline | ok erusul, tell me the steps briefly please..mount the iso, run the update manager thats it? cant i just copy all the *.deb files to /var/apt/cahe and try upgrading? | 19:22 |
| mjm521 | the thing that worried me is it doesn't sound as if the HD is working too hard. | 19:22 |
| Dulak | mikebeecham: you have that smb mount listed in /etc/fstab? | 19:22 |
| mjm521 | i would hear it spinning no? | 19:22 |
| pqangel | hi :) | 19:22 |
| pqangel | i have a question regarding NTFS support on ubuntu 8.10 | 19:22 |
| erUSUL | neoline: .mount the iso, run the update manager <<< yes that's it | 19:22 |
| imaginivity | !ask > pqangel | 19:22 |
| ubottu | pqangel, please see my private message | 19:22 |
| mikebeecham | Dulak: yessir | 19:22 |
| paulo39 | is there anyone who can help me? my internet connection failed i dont know why. It just dont work. the weird thing is that thisjusthappened after i install win7 in the same pc (dual boot) and now i have net on win 7 but i dont have it on ubuntu. i have here the copies of the outputof ifconfig, /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf | 19:22 |
| mjm521 | pqangel what's ur q? | 19:22 |
| psychic | is there a program i can use to find duplicate music files? | 19:22 |
| neoline | erusul: and copying to cahe wont help? | 19:23 |
| paulo39 | i tried the live session with installation cd and it didnt work too. but when i tried with 9.04 cd live session, it worked | 19:23 |
| neoline | cache* | 19:23 |
| erUSUL | neoline: never tried | 19:23 |
| imaginivity | Hi, I have Ubuntu Studio but nobody's responding in #ubuntustudio so I thought I'd ask here; on trying to install the restricted extras package, it complains that it needs to remove libavcodec52 and libavutil49 | 19:23 |
| SetiAmon | hey folks | 19:23 |
| mjm521 | u behind a router, paulo? | 19:23 |
| imaginivity | What can I do? | 19:23 |
| paulo39 | here is the interfaces doc: http://pastebin.com/d402e0b01 here is dhclient.conf: http://pastebin.com/d2b4a79d8 and here the ifconfig: http://pastebin.com/d67f499aa | 19:23 |
| she_dyed | no mjm521 iirc its slow and steady | 19:23 |
| paulo39 | a modem | 19:23 |
| mikebeecham | Dulak: the folder is mounted ok...it's just that I cant access the contents when not accessing as root | 19:23 |
| pqangel | mjm521 ii need to format an external hard drive from FAT 32 to NTFS and then write on it on ubuntu | 19:23 |
| safruhani | i couldn't use keypad, dropbox, audacious after upgrading from 8.10 to 9.4, has anyone face to the same problems also? | 19:23 |
| erUSUL | neoline: but i doubt it there other steps the update manager does (like changing sources and other stuff ) | 19:23 |
| mcphail | imaginivity: don't think that's a problem. I think other packages provide the same functions | 19:23 |
| pqangel | does ubuntu has NTFS write support from default? | 19:24 |
| SetiAmon | this graphical user interface is ugly,it is a friggin clone of XP,i don't like.anyone recommend a better windows manager and would it be a pain to move to a diff windows manager? | 19:24 |
| mjm521 | pqangel: do u need to preserve the FAT32 data? | 19:24 |
| pqangel | no | 19:24 |
| erUSUL | pqangel: yep it does | 19:24 |
| neoline | erusul: okay thanks anyway.. :) oh btw, after mounting, the update manager never opened automatically.. can we fix this? | 19:24 |
| mjm521 | pqangel: yes it does | 19:24 |
| Dulak | mikebeecham: yeah I'm looking for the solution, been a while since I solved this, you can tell it to mount as your user instead of root so you own everything | 19:24 |
| pqangel | and how can i format in NTFS ?? | 19:24 |
| psychic | anyone know of a program to locate duplicate audio files? | 19:24 |
| mjm521 | pqangel: i don't remember the first version that implemented that but 8.10 definitely does it fine | 19:24 |
| erUSUL | neoline: make a bug report/wish :) | 19:24 |
| neoline | erusul:oh yes! It must be manipulating the sources as well..quite right.. | 19:24 |
| erUSUL | !bugs | neoline | 19:24 |

| mjm521 | if you don't want to use fdisk and/or mkfs.ntfs (which is in ntfsprogs) use gparted | 19:25 |
| mjm521 | if gparted doesn't give you the option you need ntfsprogs | 19:25 |
| ultratek | how do i create a dir | 19:25 |
| mjm521 | sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs | 19:25 |
| Dulak | mikebeecham: the user option just allows normal users to mount it, it will still set root to the owner | 19:25 |
| pqangel | is gparted already installed in ubuntu?? | 19:25 |
| imaginivity | mcphail: Yeah, I just had a look. Apparently it just wants to install the unstripped versions of the two conflicting packages, I don't think there's any worry :) | 19:25 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: jaunty ? | 19:25 |
| mjm521 | (or ntfs-progs) | 19:25 |
| hatter243 | ultratek, mkdir | 19:25 |
| mjm521 | not sure about the hyphen | 19:25 |

| mcphail | imaginivity: installed the ubuntustudio packages last night. very nice | 19:26 |
| wrektjet | DasEi, yes indeed. im looking all over the web for the right plugin | 19:26 |
| neoline | erusul:ubottu: okay guys. I'll try it again, and if its still the same, will report a bug.. :) | 19:26 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: try installing gstreamer0.10-plugins-good or try k3b | 19:26 |
| mjm521 | pqangel: might not be try sudo apt-get install gparted from a terminal, or use the Add/Remove icon in your app menu | 19:26 |
| erUSUL | neoline: ubottu is a bot :P | 19:26 |
| wrektjet | lookin at k3b atm | 19:26 |
| Dulak | mikebeecham: the option you want is uid= | 19:26 |
| [`HektoR`] | guys , please anyone give me a good sources.list .... | 19:26 |
| pqangel | the thing is i have to instruct someone from the phone to do it, so the easier the better | 19:26 |
| imaginivity | mcphail: :D I know, it's sweet. I'm going to install the mac4lin project on it, then make a livecd out of it and show other Mac users how Ubuntu's oh so much better :) | 19:26 |

| Dulak | mikebeecham, add that to your mount option, put your actual user id there | 19:26 |
| bishop_ | joined | 19:26 |

| neoline | erusul: Personification is nice sometimes.. :D | 19:27 |
| pqangel | no need for other libraries to run the GUI or anything right??? | 19:27 |
| mcphail | imaginivity: just wish the realtime kernel was a bit more up to date | 19:27 |
| mikebeecham | how can I find my UID # | 19:27 |

| imaginivity | mcphail: not too bothered about that, really. | 19:27 |
| neoline | erusul: can't you login remotely to my laptop and fix this thing? :p | 19:27 |
| pqangel | ok, thanks :) gonna install it threw SSH and BRB with info ;) | 19:27 |
| wrektjet | seems that package is already installed. i also tried rhythmbox burner and failed. i guess on to k3b | 19:28 |
| imaginivity | mcphail: but a real-time kernel is absolutely win. | 19:28 |
| mcphail | imaginivity: absolutely. ,issed it badly on the last release | 19:28 |
| mjm521 | sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs gparted | 19:28 |
| mcphail | *missed | 19:28 |
| mjm521 | that line should do all you need | 19:28 |
| ultratek | how do i copy /home/ultratek/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so to /.mozilla/plugins | 19:28 |
| erUSUL | neoline: i doubt it :) | 19:28 |
| mikebeecham | Dulak: added user,UID=1000 into fstab...but no change! | 19:28 |
| Dulak | mikebeecham: it's lowercase, uid= | 19:29 |
| neoline | erusul: :p thanks.. :) Tc! | 19:29 |
| Dulak | mikebeecham: you'll have to remount it after the change | 19:29 |
| mcphail | mikebeecham: have you remounted the share? | 19:29 |
| marko-_-- | ultratek, cp /home/ultratek/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so /.mozzila/plugins | 19:29 |
| ultratek | it says omitting dir if i do that | 19:29 |
| mikebeecham | Dulak: mcphail I've umounted and remounted via sudo umount -a, sudo mount -a....no change | 19:29 |
| ubuntistas | i upgraded to openoffice 3.1 and openoffice.org database doesn't work any clue? | 19:29 |
| she_dyed | marko-_--, would that work even on a symlink | 19:30 |
| Dulak | mikebeecham: you using smbfs as the type in fstab? | 19:30 |
| mikebeecham | cifs | 19:30 |
| pqangel | i have installed gparted so it should now appear on my menu right?? | 19:30 |
| psychic | is there a program to find duplicate files? | 19:30 |
| marko-_-- | she_dyed, to make a symlink you have to use the -s parameter | 19:30 |
| pqangel | maybe under de tools section?? | 19:30 |
| * mcphail could be driven insane by samba | 19:30 | |
| mjm521 | you might have to log out and log back in, but if you don't want to do that just hit alt-F2 and type gparted | 19:31 |
| pqangel | alt+F2 brings out the console? | 19:31 |
| Dulak | mikebeecham: umount it, and make sure your user owns the mount point | 19:31 |
| ubuntistas | i upgraded to openoffice 3.1 and openoffice.org database doesn't work any clue? | 19:31 |
| Dulak | mikebeecham: for example if you mount it to /mnt/windows, umount it, and make sure your user owns the /mnt/windows dir | 19:31 |
| mjm521 | brings up the "Run" dialog | 19:31 |

| yadira | she died es tu nomber | 19:54 |

| Volkodav | raylu also I put the xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap in autostart but it will not work - where is the file for autostart so I can do it manually ? | 20:04 |
| raylu | Severity1, ed0n0n: compiling is not the same as installing a deb. debs get updated from the repos and can be easily removed with dpkg/apt later | 20:04 |
| DanaG | usplash seems to completely trash efifb. | 20:04 |
| raylu | Volkodav: in xfce? not sure. is the autostart script +x? | 20:04 |
| raylu | !startup | Volkodav | 20:04 |
| ubottu | Volkodav: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 20:04 |
| ed0n0n | raylu: so will leave this for Gentoo users | 20:04 |
| raylu | ed0n0n: er.. no | 20:05 |
| raylu | ed0n0n: in gentoo, compiling is just a part of the package manager :D | 20:05 |
| raylu | ed0n0n: it's not in debian-based systems. you can still roll your own deb from source | 20:05 |
| lesshaste | I am trying to reboot into single user mode but telinit 1 brings up the XUBUNTU booting screen and hangs | 20:05 |
| lesshaste | it looks like a framebuffer problem maybe?? | 20:05 |
| Volkodav | raylu they have the gui thing in xfce for autostart but for this particular cvommand it does not work for some reason | 20:05 |
| raylu | ed0n0n: but a lot of Makefiles have uninstall targets | 20:05 |
| Volkodav | others do though | 20:05 |

| lesshaste | can anyone get ubuntu to boot in single user mode? | 20:06 |
| she_dyed | lesshaste, add the word single | 20:06 |
| ohir | lesshaste: ctrl-alt-f1 will give you text console | 20:06 |
| erUSUL | lesshaste: recovery mode in the grub menu is exactly that | 20:06 |
| SetiAmon | Cool now i have x64 flash player | 20:07 |
| ohir | lesshaste: then sudo -i, kill xdm | 20:07 |

| ed0n0n | Severity1: the whole of it? | 20:08 |
| Severity1 | raylu, yes i already told him the three steps in compiling | 20:09 |
| Severity1 | ./configure, make and make install | 20:09 |
| erUSUL | !checkinstall | 20:09 |
| ubottu | checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 20:09 |
| ohir | lesshaste: so use recovery mode | 20:09 |
| Severity1 | ed0n0n, just the first two lines | 20:09 |

| schambers | what terminal can I use to have a transparent terminal on my desktop with no borders, toolbars etc... | 20:10 |
| dinasty | this is the deal.. i have a dualboot with grub one is ubuntu and one is win.. the problem is that win cant boot, however it boots perfectly with a supergrub disc | 20:10 |
| SetiAmon | I am so used to my antivirus running in the background,what do you do with idle processors? | 20:10 |
| Severity1 | ed0n0n, okay have you tried installing gimp via sudo apt-get install gimp? | 20:10 |
| lesshaste | she_dyed: If you add single it thinks I want recovery mode | 20:10 |
| Severity1 | it should install the latest package | 20:11 |
| homy | Is there something like a "versioned backup" that is well integrated into ubuntu (nautilus) like the new windows 7 feature, i.e. that I can access old versions of files? | 20:11 |
| wilfried | hey all, i have a problem here. i just update 8.04 to i think 8.10 but now kdm does not start anymore. i type this in irssi | 20:11 |
| ed0n0n | Severity1: Yes. And it says it is the latest available stable version | 20:11 |
| raylu | lesshaste: which is runlevel 1... or 2, i don't remember | 20:11 |
| she_dyed | also known as single user mode lesshaste | 20:11 |
| Severity1 | ed0n0n, and did it install the latest version? | 20:11 |
| wilfried | how do i get my kdm back and running | 20:11 |
| dinasty | when i try to boot windows it just says " cant find ntldr " | 20:11 |
| Severity1 | ed0n0n, when did you do this? | 20:11 |
| dinasty | but with supergrub it works like a charm | 20:12 |
| ed0n0n | Severity1: no, it says it is already installed | 20:12 |
| lesshaste | she_dyed: ok :) I was just surprised by the menu that came up.. must be a ubuntu feature | 20:12 |
| erUSUL | lesshaste: recovery mode == runlevel 1 === single | 20:12 |
| Severity1 | okay so we need to sudo apt-get remove --purge gimp first | 20:12 |
| Severity1 | have you done that one? | 20:12 |
| lesshaste | erUSUL: right but ubuntu has a special recovery menu that appears in single user mode | 20:12 |
| ed0n0n | Severity1: No. Not yet, doing now? | 20:13 |
| lesshaste | anyone know the minimum RAM ubuntu will boot in? | 20:13 |
| Severity1 | hold on | 20:13 |

| lesshaste | erUSUL: done, thanks | 20:13 |
| wilfried | I updated kubuntu 8.04 and now it does not start x kdm anymore. can anyone help me? | 20:13 |
| ed0n0n | Severity1: Ok | 20:13 |
| Severity1 | ed0n0n, stop! do you have any brushes or textures you need to backup? | 20:13 |
| jimcooncat | homy: there's also rdiff-backup, better on disk space, more cumbersome to get back old versions | 20:14 |
| ed0n0n | Severity1: Backuped allready | 20:14 |
| GameFreak | schambers: I accomplished that with gnome-terminal using Compiz's window plugins, so that is an option if you are using compiz. | 20:14 |

| zhurai | hmm... question: how do I find out if I have any restricted drivers? | 20:15 |
| lesshaste | sebsebseb: I'll try 64 then :) | 20:15 |
| homy | jimcooncat, mcphail: oh, it doesn't seem to have a gui integrated with nautilus (like e.g. a new tab in file properties "old versions" where you can open/restore older versions) | 20:15 |
| noon | if syslog.conf has cron commented out (#cron.*) are no cron operations being logged? | 20:15 |
| mcphail | homy: you don't need integration. You just navigate into the archive directories | 20:15 |
| Severity1 | i really cant believe jaunty is running fine on a pentium 3 256mb ram machine | 20:15 |
| erUSUL | zhurai: System<Preferences>hardware drivers | 20:15 |
| sebsebseb | lesshaste: 64MB RAM and Ubuntu does not sound good | 20:15 |

| lesshaste | sebsebseb: no X remember | 20:15 |

| jimcooncat | homy: I'm on an older version of Ubuntu, there are probably some kind of add-ons that would help | 20:16 |
| homy | mcphail: but it makes more sense with that integration because then you can also access multiple older versions directly from the current version of the file | 20:16 |
| ed0n0n | Severity1: Done it. It has deleted some other packages like gimp* gimp-gnomevfs* gimp-python* ubuntu-desktop* | 20:16 |

Anyone know how I can get the version that's in the repos on my computer note that "sudo apt-get install --reinstall python" doesn't work | 20:16 |

| phoenixz | If I were to install ubuntu on a SUN T2000 server, would I have all the same packages available as on the i386 platform? | 20:22 |
| GameFreak | That's pretty strange. Well that should be installed. | 20:22 |
| jsmidt | petsounds, I don't know what the exact package name is for google earth, but in general you type: sudo apt-get remove packagename | 20:22 |
| petsounds | yacc : but i'm not installing via synaptics | 20:22 |
| petsounds | jsmidt : no luck, sorry | 20:22 |

| homy | mcphail, jimcooncat: I mean something like this: http://www.blogsdna.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/restore-previous-versions-windows-7.png | 20:23 |
| petsounds | i didn't know the package name | 20:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | petsounds: if you have the medibuntu repository, its googleearth | 20:23 |
| ed0n0n | Severity: OK, so I change repositories | 20:23 |
| Severity1 | yep! | 20:24 |
| petsounds | IndyGunFreak : can you please be more detail | 20:24 |
| jsmidt | petsounds, look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GoogleEarth | 20:24 |
| Severity1 | lets hope that repo is still laive | 20:24 |
| mcphail | homy: rsnapshot is for backup to a separate disk (i.e. real backup). Version based backup is available on some filesystems such as zfs (???ext4). Not much use if your disk melts. | 20:24 |
| jsmidt | petsounds, try: sudo apt-get remove googleearth | 20:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | petsounds: i don't really know how much more detailed i can be.. add the medibuntu repository, then after that, sudo apt-get install googleearth | 20:24 |
| homy | mcphail: yes, I wouldn't versioned "backups" as real backups, they're just handy if I accidentially edit a file or replace it by something else, ... | 20:25 |
| t3sla | )) | 20:25 |
| mcphail | homy: yes. Don't think we're there in linux yet. zfs can do it (i think) but isn't available in linux | 20:25 |
| petsounds | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GoogleEarth (solved) | 20:25 |
| petsounds | thank you guys :) | 20:26 |

| SetiAmon | I saw that there is a defrag tool for linux,will such a tool give any real performance gain? | 20:26 |

| erUSUL | !defrag | SetiAmon | 20:27 |

| chetnick | hi, i have one ntfs partition that i want to change to ext3. Do i just run mke2fs /dev/sdaX or i have to do something before that? | 20:29 |
| raylu | chetnick: nope. but if you don't know what you're doing (like me), i'd recommend letting gparted do the work for you | 20:29 |
| pqangel | hi, could someone please tell me how to run a program as root from the run window?? | 20:29 |
| dajhorn | phoenixz: Packages in the main repo will be there, but a lot of the user interface goodies will be broken or missing. Lot's of things in restricted, like codecs, will be unavailable on SPARC. | 20:29 |
| xemacs4321 | Chetic, mkfs.ext3 partition | 20:29 |
| erUSUL | chetnick: if the parition is empty you do not need any extra steps | 20:30 |
| homy | jimcooncat: timevault is still in beta. | 20:30 |
| guntbert | chetnick: assuming you don't need the data :) | 20:30 |
| mcphail | homy: http://www.ext3cow.com/FAQ.html -- haven't used this, but might be worth a look | 20:30 |
| jimcooncat | homy: yes | 20:30 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: you still there? | 20:30 |
| guntbert | !sudo | pqangel | 20:30 |
| ubottu | pqangel: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 20:30 |
| ed0n0n | Severity1: Good. Forgot about the great getdeb site. Should have looked there before, now I wonder how to do the same in Lenny, anyway that is off-topic | 20:30 |
| chetnick | erUSUL: that partition is not empty, but i dont need any data from it. That is why i ask, should i delete partition first, and than mke2fs or just do mke2fs. | 20:30 |
| ed0n0n | Severity1: Thanks for your help | 20:30 |
| homy | mcphail: oh, I wouldn't really want a different file system, only this backup thing... | 20:30 |
| arazriel | is here anybody pro in ubuntu?? | 20:31 |
| Severity1 | no prob | 20:31 |
| ikonia | digitallogik: yes, sorry, was justl ooking at a different screen | 20:31 |

| Severity1 | i dont know anything about lenny tho | 20:31 |
| pqangel | i'm trying to run gparted and i tried sudo gparted but nothing happens | 20:31 |
| levus | siema | 20:31 |
| chetnick | ok thanks everybody | 20:31 |
| phoenixz | dajhorn: codecs like for audio and video? thats no problem, its a server.. but stuff like.. say, svk, php, mysql, etc should be there? | 20:31 |
| raylu | chetnick: paritioning and formatting are separte operations | 20:31 |
| erUSUL | !gksudo | pqangel | 20:31 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: I basically wrote a udev rule, which I believe is matching but its not creating the device node | 20:31 |
| ubottu | pqangel: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 20:31 |
| levus | hi | 20:31 |
| dajhorn | phoenixz: Yes, all the basics are there and working. | 20:31 |
| ed0n0n | Severity1: Good as a server, maybe not best for using GIMP | 20:31 |
| ikonia | digitallogik: ok, want to share the rule ? | 20:31 |
| arazriel | please help somebody!!! | 20:32 |
| pqangel | ok, thats great, thank you ;) | 20:32 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: sure, one moment | 20:32 |
| chetnick | raylu: ? | 20:32 |
| ikonia | arazriel: ask a question then | 20:32 |
| phoenixz | dajhorn: Any bugs / twiches / problems I need to know of before I would start this undertaking? | 20:32 |
| mcphail | homy: versioning backup is a filesystem feature. You can't do it with standard default ext3 | 20:32 |
| pqangel | another question (if possible) i need to format a HD to NTFS will i have any problem with writting permissions after i've formatted? | 20:32 |
| homy | mcphail: oh. | 20:32 |
| ikonia | !ntfs3g > pqangel | 20:33 |
| ubottu | pqangel, please see my private message | 20:33 |
| dajhorn | phoenixz: *heh* Just try it. | 20:33 |
| raylu | chetnick: if you actually deleted the partition, you wouldn't be able to format... it | 20:33 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: KERNEL=="spi10.0",NAME="touchscreen",SYMLINK="interfaces/touchscreen" | 20:33 |
| arazriel | ikonia: ii think i have typed a wrong command to a wrong place and since then i cant see my partition | 20:33 |
| ikonia | arazriel: what command did you do | 20:33 |
| ikonia | digitallogik: looking | 20:33 |
| dajhorn | phoenixz: I had partitioning problems with Jaunty, so do your trial on a test box. Don't expect to keep the disk intact. | 20:33 |
| Severity1 | ed0n0n, oooooh! im learning ebox for network service management | 20:33 |
| phoenixz | dajhorn: that sounds encouraging :) | 20:33 |
| pqangel | ikonia, i already have NTFS write support, my only problem is about permissions (if any..) | 20:33 |
| user1_ | how i see the net trafic bytes downloaded ? | 20:33 |
| vaul | People, is there any reason for gnome to refuse to send to print djvu file? | 20:33 |
| ikonia | pqangel: yes, so check the link | 20:34 |
| ed0n0n | ebox? | 20:34 |
| pqangel | ok, thank you :) | 20:34 |
| === danopia` is now known as danopia | ||
| chetnick | raylu: correct, but i was confued about the steps. What i meant is, should i delete, create new, and then format, or just directly format on top of the NTFS. | 20:34 |
| ed0n0n | will have a look at it. going for dinner now | 20:34 |
| phoenixz | dajhorn: If the disk is not intact, could that cause the server to become inoperable? | 20:34 |
| raylu | chetnick: just directly format, as others have stated. i still recommend you let gparted take care of this | 20:34 |
| erUSUL | chetnick: again you can format on top | 20:34 |
| arazriel | ikonia: in the setting, or the info in the right click on a drive there is a place: drive and volume... | 20:35 |
| sutiburx | hey all, I've ran sudo nvidia-settings in order for my external screen being permanently used, and now my window borders (metacity) are gone. When i run metacity --replace in a terminal they're back, but once i close the terminal they dissapear again. Anyone know how i can fix this? | 20:35 |
| ikonia | digitallogik: that rule doesn't look write, (checking the synatx | 20:35 |
| dajhorn | phoenixz: It won't damage the hardware. Just reinstall Solaris if Ubuntu doesn't run the way you want it to. | 20:35 |
| homy | sutiburx: press alt-f2 and enter "metacity --replace" in that window | 20:35 |
| ikonia | arazriel: what command did you do to break it | 20:35 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: I've used a similar rule for my ipod, this is for a custom touchscreen spi device | 20:35 |
| TJ1111 | suitburx: alt+f2 and type `metacity --replace` | 20:35 |
| TJ1111 | beaten :| | 20:35 |
| arazriel | ikonia: somewhere i wrote things and rebooted my machine a litle after and then i cant open the drive | 20:35 |
| phoenixz | Is there anything known about firefox totally messing up page rendering (specially text gets mangled) of all web pages? its like okay for one hour.. then little by little pages sstart to degrade.. first a few letters.. then entire words, and 30 mins later all web pages have become unreadable.. | 20:36 |
| ikonia | arazriel: tell me what you wrote | 20:36 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: I can create a node using mknod I'm just trying to get udev to handle it instead | 20:36 |
| phoenixz | dajhorn: and once installed, it should behave like normal linux.. right? | 20:36 |
| sutiburx | TJ1111: will this stay when i reboot the machine? | 20:36 |
| dajhorn | phoenixz: It will be nearly identical. | 20:37 |
| homy | so I guess I'll just have to wait until ext5 or something else that doesn't need a different file system supports these versioned "backups". Thanks anyway! | 20:37 |
| ikonia | digitallogik: what exactly are you expecting that rule to do ? | 20:37 |
| chiques | Is there any way to run Mplayer in debug mode? | 20:37 |
| phoenixz | dajhorn: thanks! Since its either this server or .. well, nothing, I'll give it a try :) | 20:37 |
| arazriel | ikonia: I think in the voulme tab i wrote the - not exact - name of the partition, into the connection point or whatevei it is in english, (i'm using hungarian version..) | 20:37 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: rename the device and put it in dev | 20:38 |
| ikonia | arazriel: the connection point is only for remote devices | 20:38 |
| raylu | chiques: man mplayer | 20:38 |
| unko | can someone please help me with Songbird music player? it won't launch.... | 20:38 |
| ikonia | digitallogik: nah, that rule is creating s symlink but to nothing | 20:38 |
| raylu | chiques: mplayer -msglevel all=9 | 20:38 |
| yacc | petsounds, ? | 20:38 |
| ikonia | digitallogik: take a step back, what is the existing device node you want to rename ? | 20:38 |
| arazriel | ikonia: well it is a mobile racked winchester, but i tought.. | 20:38 |
| petsounds | yacc : yes ? | 20:38 |
| yacc | petsounds, how did you install it then? | 20:38 |
| chiques | thanks raylu | 20:38 |
| ikonia | arazriel: portable disk ? | 20:38 |
| arazriel | ikonia: anyway can i disable it? | 20:39 |
| ikonia | arazriel: disable what, I thought you wanted mount it | 20:39 |
| petsounds | yacc : i am installing from .bin | 20:39 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: I have to use mknod to create it so it doesnt have a name unless I give it one. Which im trying to get away from doing. I have the DEVPATH though | 20:39 |
| arazriel | ikonia: sort of, i never take it out, but it is a separate winchester, just to protect data on it.. | 20:39 |
| ikonia | digitallogik: ok - so if it doesn't have a device node, there is nothing to rename | 20:40 |
| arazriel | ikonia, yes i do want to mount the device, i just want to disable the crap i made to it | 20:40 |
| ikonia | arazriel: I don't understand what you're asking | 20:40 |
| === MrObvious2 is now known as MrObvious | ||
| ikonia | arazriel: you want to mount and disable it? | 20:40 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: correct, but there is a UEVENT created that I believe I should be able to use to create the node | 20:40 |
| ikonia | arazriel: open a terminal and do an "sudo fdisk -l" and put it in a pastebin please | 20:40 |
| ikonia | digitallogik: but in your rule there is no uevent | 20:41 |
| arazriel | ikonia: i want to mount my winchester again | 20:41 |
| digitallogik | ikonia: I can see the UEVENT if I use udevadm monitor | 20:41 |
| androiddev | I have a really stupid question... I'm building a server room (closet really) in my house, and i really don't want cables all over the floor and such | 20:41 |

| outofthemadness | I 've got a rather interesting problem. Seems I've accidentally overwritten python 2.6(I'm using jaunty) with stackless python. This overwrote my sys.path, and synaptic seems to think this version of python is the same as the one in the repos.

| rabideejit | guntbert: I wouldn't think a non-root process could screw up Xorg, which is why I mentioned the executables weren't setuid root. However, perhaps the problem is being caused by GDM, or something similar. | 21:16 |

| agajania | I'm trying to install the 9.04 Netbook Remix. I wrote the img file to a USB drive using the dd command.

Errors found in 1 files." | 21:18 |
| deadhorse | a small question ,i've instaled postfix ,and i know that i've recieved a mail ,how can i read it ? :$ | 21:18 |
| pegon | romout, sorry about that I didn't see that...ummm did you try removing the switcher applet and then adding it to the panel again? and what happens if you switch with the keyboard shortcuts from one workspace to the next does it do the same thing? | 21:18 |
| rain | rabideejit: yes | 21:18 |
| qazavul | it says something bout a sudo thing | 21:18 |
| Volkodav | files Imean xmodmap.us xmodmap.us_int not mentioning other languages | 21:18 |
| rabideejit | deadhorse: I thought mutt detects local mail servers | 21:18 |
| deadhorse | kk ,ty | 21:18 |
| romout | pegon: Using the keyboard after having clicked on another desktop does not bring back the bars. | 21:19 |
| agajania | is that error message a real indication that there is a problem with the install image on the USB drive? | 21:19 |
| crono | no help :( | 21:19 |
| pqangel | nmvictor: hi i'm back with the same error and running from live CD :\ | 21:19 |

| rain | rabideejit: These html files are C++ include files so script must not damage C++ code | 21:19 |
| crono | reeeeeeeaaally? | 21:19 |
| setuid | Problem is that there's too many places to affect this... /etc/pm/config.d/, /etc/pm/sleep.d/, /etc/acpi/acpi-support, /usr/lib/pm/default, and so on | 21:19 |
| jr_ | how do i add installed programs to my applications menu | 21:19 |
| crono | oh fine | 21:19 |
| jr_ | for instance i used synaptic to install gifsicle but it's not in the menu? | 21:20 |
| babamelone | my friend has the same problem, he cant use his touchpad too under ubuntu, I used to use mandriva and there it worked, is this some confgi issue and if so, how can i solve it? | 21:20 |
| jyg_ | setuid, what's the issue you're having? | 21:20 |
| romout | pegon: How do I restart my X-Session? CTRL+ALT+Backspace does not seem to work | 21:20 |
| pegon | romout, do you have dontzap installed? | 21:20 |
| setuid | jyg_, I need to modprobe -r/rmmod ath_pci and sierra when I suspend, and insmod/modprobe them when I resume. | 21:20 |
| crono | how can i keep network-manager alive also on suspend mode | 21:20 |
| jyg_ | jr, using synaptic doesn't add things to the menu, its the package that's installed that adds things to the menu | 21:20 |
| romout | pegon: second, checking | 21:20 |
| pegon | romout, that is probably why ctrl alt backspace doesn't work | 21:20 |
| guntbert | !dontzap | romout | 21:20 |
| babamelone | crono; impossible. | 21:21 |
| ubottu | romout: 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. | 21:21 |
| jr_ | jyg_, is there a way to add it to the menu than | 21:21 |
| nmvictor | pqangel:what are you trying to do,lets start at that,PM me if you want,it'll be alot easier | 21:21 |
| jr_ | it's in /us/bin | 21:21 |
| pegon | guntbert, thanks lol | 21:21 |
| crono | yes but it's not a "real" xsession | 21:21 |
| jyg_ | jr_, yes you can edit the menus | 21:21 |
| crono | it's freenxserver running a xsession | 21:21 |
| crono | i disconnect from client | 21:21 |
| jyg_ | setuid, you think your network is keeping suspend from working right? | 21:21 |
| jr_ | jyg_, how do i do that? | 21:21 |

| rabideejit | rain: So you used httrack to copy a bunch of C++ from a website? I mean, you could parse the xml and go through the tree printing out the bits you want, but surely there would be a nicer way to download the code in the first place. In the first case, you'd probably be better asking in #perl, #haskell or #ruby or something like that. | 21:22 |

| Pie` | :P if you install WINE, as I recall it comes with a version of IE | 21:24 |
| iLogic_ | NvidiaUser: yup, only ie6, 5.5 and 5 | 21:24 |
| jyg_ | baba, mandriva prolly has a different customized kernel :) | 21:25 |
| babamelone | although it is enabled in some settings gui from ubuntu | 21:25 |
| iLogic_ | Pie`: I don't think so.. even if it did, probably would be ie6 | 21:25 |

| mzz | pvvni: actually you don't have to explicitly detach the screen, at least not here. I've regularly had some commands in a screen session survive a network connection drop or X crash. | 21:43 |

| Dr_Willis | guinea`: then ya got the root of the hard drive/filesystem, and the root user.. and the root direcctory thats not the same as 'root /' :) | 22:23 |

| guinea` | Oftentimes they point to the same partition, but if you're using encrypted partitions, you have to get it right | 22:23 |
| guinea` | root (hd0,0) has to point to the place with your kernel and initrd | 22:24 |

| mzz | guinea`: grub doesn't care about the partition your / is on, it just needs to find itself, find the kernel and initrd images, and run them. Vice versa once the kernel is loaded by grub you no longer need those images (the system will run mostly fine with /boot unmounted) | 22:26 |

| toodor | A makefile for my 2200 wireless driver won't run. | 22:30 |
| Classic | toodor, how do you run it? | 22:31 |
| auli | axisys: see http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/125977 -- it has list of packages you might need | 22:31 |
| toodor | I have all the packages. | 22:31 |
| toodor | Actually, let me double check | 22:31 |
| MF_Debian | DBO, sometimes once an hour, sometimes every few minutes, it may be just a harmless debug message, but my wireless connection seems a bit flaky, so I'm suspicious | 22:31 |
| toodor | oh | 22:31 |
| Ash-Fox | Hi, is there a way I can shut down a system as root without physical access to it without the halt, poweroff, reboot, init, runlevel, shutdown? Why am I asking? Because the server I'm in is suffering numerous drive issues and I can't shut it down via those commands, but many others are workign currently | 22:31 |
| DBO | MF_Debian, its not harmless, when it does it your connection drops for 20 or 30 seconds | 22:31 |
| DBO | MF_Debian, what laptop do you have? | 22:32 |
| toodor | tar -xkf ipw2200-1.2.2|cd ./ipw2200-1.2.2 ./config | 22:32 |

| fresh_prince | auli: i am quite a newbie, will i have to change the install path from the configure file or something like that, and would i have to define the system variables ? | 22:37 |
| toodor | So I tried make without config, and it told me that I need to install ieee80211. 80211 has no config, and it's makefile returns an error as well. | 22:37 |
| benc | how can I find errors with a boot script? | 22:37 |
| DBO | MF_Debian, if you fix the BSSID in the connection editor it should be fixed | 22:38 |
| Classic | toodor, no idea, where is the guide? | 22:38 |
| auli | fresh_prince: i've never build cmake before, but if it uses a configure script, simply configure it this way - ./configure --prefix=/home/user/build/cmake | 22:38 |
| auli | fresh_prince: that is what I do | 22:38 |
| Jenny26 | blubloblu: When I click on the Windows Network in the Network file browser on my ubuntu laptop, it gives me the error message "Unable to mount location" -- does this mean i need samba? | 22:38 |

The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 23:07 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: you just need to check what ip addresses the two systems have (running "ifconfig" on the commandline will tell you, but I think the networkmanager applet also has this information) and adjust those in what Classic linked you to where necessary. | 23:08 |
| toodor | I have the most recent drivers. I'm trying to compile them. | 23:08 |
| tel0s | jeniffer: install a base system using a netinstall disk and just put a basic DE on top | 23:08 |
| phoenixz | To install ubuntu on a SUN T2000 machine, I can just use the standard Ubuntu Server 8.04 64 bits CD? | 23:08 |
| Demonicdata | ubottu:so i didn't need to install Firestarter from add/remove programs just now? | 23:08 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:08 |
| Pixels | mrwes: are you telling me that a default install Ubuntu has NO FIREWALL PROTECTION??? | 23:08 |
| jeniffer | tel0s what is a basic De? | 23:08 |
| ibuclaw | Pixels, no, but by default, no services are running, so you're computer is "stealthed". | 23:08 |
| mrwes | Pixels, well..iptables is install, but not configured | 23:08 |
| tel0s | jeniffer: a basic desktop environment. google openbox or fluxbox | 23:09 |
| ibuclaw | Pixels, are you behind a router? | 23:09 |
| Classic | toodor, is it tar.gz ? or just gz? | 23:09 |
| paladin | can i use apt to see whether some file has been deleted from an installed package? | 23:09 |
| mzz | Pixels, ibuclaw: not really "stealthed" according to most definitions of that term I know (ports show up as closed) but that's definitely secure enough unless you shoot yourself in the foot | 23:09 |
| mrwes | Pixels, if you are behind a router and not forwarding any ports, you don't have any issues | 23:09 |
| jeniffer | tel0s I have tried to do a netinstall, but it always begins to download thousans of packages i dont need | 23:09 |
| tel0s | jeniffer: are you doing it from the mini iso? | 23:10 |
| ejv | thecougar: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup | 23:10 |
| Demonicdata | it doesn't matter if your behind a router anyhow right<I mean the 'shields up"test shows the same with no firewall,software firewall is just handy for outbound right? | 23:10 |
| ejv | thecougar: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 23:10 |
| mrwes | Pixels, you an always check out Shields Up! for security | 23:10 |
| Pixels | mzz: so a default install of Ubuntu DOES HAVE a firewall protection? | 23:10 |
| jeniffer | tel0s... well i did that a time ago, I think I did...now i cant remeber | 23:10 |
| mrwes | !firewall | 23:10 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 23:10 |
| ibuclaw | Demonicdata, yes, and forwarding, but ufw only deals with INBOUND | 23:10 |
| mzz | Pixels: what kind of "protection" do you want? There are no services listening on non-localhost by default, so there's nothing for a firewall to protect. | 23:10 |
| ejv | thecougar: then restart X, by doing CTRL + ALT + BACKSPACE, then restart GDM by doing: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 23:10 |
| raylu | Pixels: as it says above, yes | 23:10 |
| jeniffer | tel0s but i think it was the mini iso | 23:10 |
| ejv | thecougar: goodluck ;) | 23:11 |
| mrwes | sigh... | 23:11 |
| tel0s | jeniffer: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 23:11 |
| raylu | Pixels: but firewalls are sort of band-aids, not a real solution. see whta mzz said | 23:11 |
| clarezoe | hi, anyone tell me how to create a firewire connection | 23:11 |
| mrwes | !firewall | Pixels | 23:11 |

| toodor | just tgz | 23:11 |
| jeniffer | tel0s thank a lot! | 23:11 |
| tel0s | jeniffer: and then install xorg openbox obconf | 23:11 |
| Classic | unzip it to any directory | 23:11 |
| mrwes | Pixels, what do you think you need a firewall for? | 23:11 |
| toodor | done | 23:11 |
| jeniffer | tel0s all right!!! thanks again! | 23:11 |
| tel0s | jeniffer: if you need a walktrhough, I can help over msn or some other client. dont want to spam the channel | 23:11 |
| Classic | cd into that directory from konsole | 23:12 |
| toodor | I've already done tar -xkf|cd ./whatever| make | 23:12 |
| raylu | tel0s: for the protection of the users receiving help, we ask that you keep it in here | 23:12 |
| toodor | Already done | 23:12 |
| Classic | toodor, did you do ./configure? | 23:12 |
| Demonicdata | other then the files on add/remove are there any great places to get software for ubuntu/linux | 23:12 |
| ejv | lol cuz IRC is sooooooo safe | 23:12 |
| jeniffer | tel0s perfect! how can i contact you over msn? | 23:12 |
| ejv | lmao | 23:12 |
| tel0s | raylu: fair enough. you'll need xorg obconf openbox hal thunar | 23:12 |
| mzz | Demonicdata: I strongly recommend you stick to add/remove programs or synaptics if at all possible, and add extra repos instead of installing by hand if something is not available in there yet | 23:13 |
| famax8 | hi there need some help with 2 things... | 23:13 |
| toodor | ./config returns "syntax error: '(' unexpected" | 23:13 |
| Classic | config or configure? | 23:13 |
| famax8 | couldnt find proper workin solutions online:( | 23:13 |
| toodor | config | 23:13 |
| mzz | toodor: what are you trying to ./configure? It's possible it doesn't like the "dash" shell. | 23:13 |
| Classic | well, try ./configure | 23:13 |
| mzz | toodor: and yes, it's usually ./configure, not ./config :) | 23:13 |
| toodor | ipw2200 drivers | 23:13 |
| clarezoe | please help! | 23:13 |
| toodor | in this case it's config | 23:13 |
| toodor | ls | 23:13 |
| mzz | toodor: are you 100% positively absolutely sure you need to build those by hand (there's no ppa or the like)? | 23:14 |
| ibuclaw | Demonicdata, getdeb.net is usually regarded as a good source of packages (mostly games for hardy). But don't expect any support for them if it breaks your system. | 23:14 |
| Demonicdata | What does symnapetic have that add/remove doesn't?why have it | 23:14 |
| mrwes | toodor, isn't that wireless module already in Ubuntu? | 23:14 |
| Classic | toodor, there should be no errors at all after ./configure, otherwise you have to satisfy some dependancies i believe | 23:14 |
| raylu | mzz, toodor: you don't need to build ipw2200 drivers... | 23:14 |
| toodor | No, I'm not. Unfortunately I can't get wireless with the preconfigured stuff. | 23:14 |
| mzz | Demonicdata: still, getting rid of something installed from a .deb is generally more reliably possible than getting rid of something installed by hand | 23:14 |
| mrwes | toodor, I'm using that module now: ieee80211 38344 1 ipw2200 | 23:15 |
| toodor | Intel didn't write this script very well. For some reason when ./config tries to declare the function "bit" it spits back a syntax error. | 23:15 |
| ibuclaw | Demonicdata, more verbosity ... with add/remove, you are only shown software. With synaptic you are shown software, data packages, libraries, development packages, etc,etc. | 23:15 |
| mzz | Demonicdata: add/remove programs only shows programs that can be started from the gui, afaik. synaptic shows all packages, which includes non-gui programs and non-programs (things depended on by some programs) | 23:15 |
| Demonicdata | mzz:well sure,i imagine so.btw i just installed ubuntu last night,first time since suse 4.2 i'v ran linux | 23:15 |
| mrwes | toodor, FWIW, that card is support out of the box | 23:16 |
| Classic | Demonicdata, Id say add/remove provides some graphical way of installing things without knowing their module names | 23:16 |
| Classic | or package names | 23:16 |
| Demonicdata | that reminds me i had a issue earlier,let me see if i can find it | 23:16 |
| toodor | It isn't working, unfortunately. | 23:16 |
| raylu | Demonicdata: congrats on escaping rpms | 23:16 |
| toodor | The hardware switch is broken or something | 23:16 |
| Classic | mrwes, thats what i was thinkin | 23:16 |
| raylu | toodor: sudo iwconfig eth1 power on | 23:16 |
| mzz | Demonicdata: there's a bit of a culture shock here especially for people coming from windows, who are used to getting software and drivers directly from the manufacturer, while in ubuntu trying the repos first usually gives a better experience | 23:16 |
| toodor | iwconfig with the current config/drivers returns | 23:17 |
| raylu | toodor: sudo iwconfig eth1 txpower auto | 23:17 |
| mzz | Demonicdata: s/in ubuntu/in most linux distros/ | 23:17 |
| toodor | I was getting to that. It returns "SET failed on device eth1 ; Device or resource busy" | 23:17 |
| toodor | or "Set Power Management" (8B2C) : . . . "Input/Output error" | 23:17 |
| ePax | Is it possible to save all mails from Mozilla Thunderbird? And when reinstalled system to add them in same maps? | 23:17 |
| mzz | ePax: I'd just back up all of ~/.mozilla to do that | 23:18 |
| famax8 | cant mount my partiton, says no privilege.. anyone for help? | 23:18 |
| DarkRavin | i need help setting up my filezilla so ppl can up load to me can someone help me | 23:18 |
| ePax | mzz: Thnx | 23:18 |
| raylu | toodor: i have that on my gentoo machine too. but nonetheless, it works | 23:18 |
| mrwes | toodor, is the card turned on with say Fn + F2 | 23:18 |
| system404 | u guys suck | 23:18 |
| raylu | toodor: try iwlist sc after that error | 23:18 |
| mzz | ePax: (disclaimer: I don't actually use thunderbird, but I'm pretty sure it'll still work since it shares the profile system with firefox) | 23:18 |
| toodor | That cmd doesn't work at all | 23:18 |
| toodor | let me try it outside of x | 23:18 |
| mzz | ePax: (so please do check if that actually got the folders) | 23:18 |
| raylu | !patience | system404 | 23:18 |
| ubottu | system404: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 23:18 |
| famax8 | DarkRavin: is easy you have to set it up in options all codes and adresses | 23:19 |
| toodor | Nope | 23:19 |
| toodor | hardware switch doesn't always work, and I've never seen fn+f2 work | 23:19 |
| system404 | i wasnt talkin about patience just meant in general | 23:19 |
| Jamed | ePax: the folder you need to backup is called .mozilla-thunderbird, or something lke that | 23:19 |
| mzz | Jamed: ah, thanks for correcting me | 23:19 |
| ePax | mzz: I have that folder and other folders that i have saved my mail into. Seweral ones. I just want to reinstall system and just upload all folders and mails into mozilla again. | 23:19 |
| toodor | I figured recompiling the drivers would help | 23:19 |
| thecougar | ejv: control alt backspace didn't work so i rebooted the system. this is seriously the easiest way to get more display settings out of the system? | 23:19 |
| portacoon | i get errors when i boot my live cd, it like doesnt let nautalis and gnome applet start | 23:20 |
| Classic | system404, type /quit, that will fix your problem | 23:20 |
| mzz | !dontzap | thecougar | 23:20 |
| ubottu | thecougar: 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. | 23:20 |
| mrwes | toodor, hrmm...works on my Dell D600 | 23:20 |
| system404 | so im gna install kde shortly should be downloaded in bout 10 minutes | 23:20 |
| gbear14275 | there a way to undelete files? | 23:20 |
| raylu | system404: read the output of the patience command. | 23:20 |
| system404 | Classic: behave i was messin around | 23:20 |
| NvidiaUser | I have Need For Speed Pro Street working with Wine\PlayOnLinux Kinda. Races freeze so I think I'll try cedega... | 23:20 |
| mzz | thecougar: ctrl+alt+f1 does still work by default. Afaik the idea is you can use that, log in and then kill the server | 23:20 |
| raylu | !undelete | gbear14275 | 23:20 |
| ubottu | gbear14275: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 23:20 |
| toodor | my leg is completely asleep. this sucks. | 23:20 |
| ePax | Nu kommer den stora frågan. Ubuntu 9.04 eller openSUSE 11.1? Vad tycker ni? | 23:20 |
| ePax | sorry wrong channel | 23:21 |
| === dn4_ is now known as dn4 | ||
| nightrid3r | !no | ePax | 23:21 |
| ubottu | ePax: Hvis du vil diskutere på Norsk, vennligst gå til #ubuntu-no. Takk! | 23:21 |
| === dn4 is now known as DN | ||
| toodor | Okay, so power management on my device fails for some random reason. What should I do about it? | 23:21 |
| Seti-Amon | So whats the deal with Gnome? | 23:21 |
| K-Rich | anyone know a reliable tutorial on getting gnome shell running in jaunty? | 23:21 |
| raylu | toodor: it's highly unlikely that recompiling your drivers will help turn your device on... | 23:21 |
| DarkRavin | i have no options just settings | 23:21 |
| ePax | nightrid3r: Its swedish. I just typed in wrong channel :D | 23:21 |
| Seti-Amon | it looks like a xp clone,is there a better windows manager then gnomee | 23:21 |
| === DN is now known as DN4 | ||
| NvidiaUser | eh... Cedega is not free. Back to work on Wine... | 23:22 |
| raylu | Seti-Amon: only a ton. | 23:22 |
| toodor | It doesn't appear to be a hardware problem, though. | 23:22 |
| supersasho | hi.. i've installed through synaptic linuxdcpp but i've got problem that it freezes allways when i start it.. warnings from console http://pastebin.com/m6e48a147 .. i know this isnt the right place, but maybe someone had the same problem like me and solved it :) | 23:22 |
| raylu | Seti-Amon: xmonad here. also try awesome, enlightenment | 23:22 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, i can send you a pic of my gnome desktop, i guarantee, xp can do none of that | 23:22 |
| thecougar | mzz: ah ok. i rebooted anyways. issue is still there | 23:22 |
| sburwood | Is it normal that my EEEPC boots on a 8.10 kernel, although when I look at Sysinfo, it tells me that I'm in 9.04 | 23:22 |
| Seti-Amon | sure classic | 23:22 |
| Seti-Amon | Send it over | 23:22 |
| Classic | ok | 23:22 |
| famax8 | dark Ravin: yes sorry settings you enter all your adresses details or the one of your uploader you give him a code and all or a free access to anyone(easier) | 23:22 |
| K-Rich | Seti-Amon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_X_Window_System_desktop_environments | 23:23 |
| mzz | thecougar: resolution issue? Can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 23:23 |
| DarkRavin | famax8,where in settinds because i cant find it | 23:24 |
| thecougar | mzz: not really i'm not online with that system yet except for basic stuff | 23:24 |
| K-Rich | Seti-Amon: that has the major players currently, there are A LOT more | 23:24 |
| mzz | thecougar: sorry, no time to debug then | 23:24 |
| Seti-Amon | Tell me when you send the picture because I am new of course | 23:24 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, right now | 23:24 |
| famax8 | DarkRavin: sorry i do by memory but should be like access option or settings or ul list settings | 23:24 |
| raylu | Seti-Amon: http://i43.tinypic.com/2iub8uv.jpg | 23:25 |
| Seti-Amon | I clicked accept.i dunno why dcc doesn't work | 23:25 |
| Classic | hm... | 23:25 |
| famax8 | then you must give a name and a code for each or a free access | 23:25 |
| Classic | dunno | 23:25 |
| system404 | so just wat improvments will kde give me | 23:25 |
| thecougar | mzz: its no prob. i thought there was a GUI option and i just hadn't found it. im not actually willing to go through any work doing command line stuff | 23:25 |
| raylu | system404: it's a totally different desktop environment... either read up on it yourself or try it out yourself | 23:26 |
| famax8 | system404: more work on cmd lines..... a better memory... and thats it :/ | 23:26 |
| dfgas_ | how do i get the computer to stop locking itself after it wakes up from sleep. i want it to come out of sleep and be at the desktop. | 23:26 |
| mzz | thecougar: there may very well be, I'm just better at figuring out what the problem is based on Xorg.0.log than based on having you click through a bunch of gui tools | 23:26 |
| dli | how do I disable /etc/motd from default ubuntu, I want it be empty | 23:26 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, anyways, its all up to you how you configure your desktop. As you learn linux, you can pretty much configure anything you want, which windows gui doesnt allow | 23:26 |
| dli | /etc/motd is set by bootlogs.sh | 23:26 |
| Seti-Amon | I wonder why f-spot view is taking so long,it seems to be struggling to view a simple picture | 23:26 |
| system404 | raylu: was only lookin for a few of its best features calm yourself im in the process of trying it its downloading as we speak | 23:26 |
| thecougar | mzz: hehe i didn't really realize there was a problem. i just thought it locked you to low resolutions till you enabled them or something. | 23:27 |
| famax8 | @ Dfgas: in your power options and then screen options | 23:27 |
| Seti-Amon | last time i used linux i never used X,just stayed in the console | 23:27 |
| DarkRavin | famax8,would it be ftp proxy | 23:27 |
| raylu | system404: the nicest feature imo is how all qt apps have a universal way of configuring keyboard shortcuts and notifications | 23:27 |
| mzz | thecougar: shouldn't, more likely it's not using the right driver for some reason. My radeon card actually started out using a higher resolution than I like (silly crt monitors with weird specs and/or edid data) | 23:27 |
| ee | the best part of X is easily displaying 50 terminals :D | 23:27 |
| famax8 | DarkRavin: not quiet sure alrite but was settings something | 23:28 |
| system404 | and wat about the look and feel of the enviroment | 23:28 |
| mzz | even though the thing technically runs at 1600x1200 at a usable refresh rate that's not actually usable on a 17" crt :) | 23:28 |
| dfgas_ | famax8, where? i don't see any screen options in power | 23:28 |
| K-Rich | So what do you all think of Mr. Shuttle worths QT based Gnome idea? | 23:28 |
| mzz | ee: meh, screen | 23:28 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, well, i like gnome with compiz. That allows me to create many desktops simultaneously, very cool effects and window management options and thats because it enables 3D acceleration on your desktop | 23:28 |
| K-Rich | -  | 23:28 |
| raylu | system404: uh... | 23:28 |
| raylu | system404: it looks and feels like kde...? | 23:29 |
| ibuclaw | ee, the best part of ssh is logging into UNIX@home from Windows@work | 23:29 |
| Seti-Amon | compiz?i downloaded something from add/remove called compiz | 23:29 |
| DarkRavin | famax8,that is in settinds and the only place i can find there | 23:29 |
| ee | mzz: i prefer icewm or flux, just for the ease of moving my terminals, i never got into screen | 23:29 |
| system404 | i mean as opposed to normal ubuntu does it look better | 23:29 |
| Seti-Amon | the only thing i really regret messing with add/remove is something called nullmailer keeps poping up once in awhile | 23:29 |
| raylu | ee: the best part of bash is that you only need 1 terminal | 23:29 |
| Classic | seti, well, now you have to set it up | 23:30 |
| famax8 | DarkRavin: then that must be | 23:30 |
| Seti-Amon | if i recall in the shell you alt F-1 to f12 to spawn consoles and i forget the rest | 23:30 |
| ibuclaw | raylu, don't you mean "screen" | 23:30 |
| DarkRavin | famax8,tks for the help | 23:30 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, thats not compiz, thats yout virtual consoles | 23:30 |
| Seti-Amon | Are there themes out there for gnome?and is enlightenment etc any better | 23:30 |
| raylu | ibuclaw: no, i mean jobs, fg, bg, ^Z, pushcd, popcd | 23:30 |
| raylu | ibuclaw: but yeah, screen is nice too :D | 23:30 |
| ibuclaw | ;) | 23:30 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, you can modify anything u want, many themes and all | 23:31 |
| ee | raylu: it's certainly nice to tsee some things side by side, like multiple ssh sessions | 23:31 |
| ibuclaw | Seti-Amon, gnome-look.org | 23:31 |
| ibuclaw | and enlightenment can be annoying | 23:31 |
| ibuclaw | great to flash effects off to your friends though (a bit like compiz) | 23:31 |
| famax8 | DarkRavin: should see a all list of setup is it? like speed limits access liimits and all rite? | 23:31 |
| mzz | I use ratpoison, emacs, urxvt, all with the borders and menus etc off, and firefox. Makes for a somewhat intimidating environment for people coming from windows :) | 23:31 |
| Seti-Amon | Classic awesome | 23:32 |
| system404 | so wats best gnome or kde | 23:32 |
| mzz | !best|system404 | 23:32 |
| ubottu | system404: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 23:32 |
| system404 | mzz stop that | 23:32 |
| raylu | mzz: i'd use ratpoison, but the keybindings are too much like emacs :P | 23:32 |
| dfgas_ | hmmmm, found something let me try now | 23:32 |
| thecougar | I hate emacs | 23:32 |
| system404 | ill rephrase in everones oppinion which do you all prefer gnome or kde | 23:32 |
| lukavia | hi, i use radeon xpress 200M on laptop, i can't get 3D to work, neither with Envy, neither with ati drivers from the site, HELP PLS | 23:32 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, go watch this vid to give you an idea about compiz http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxfSwzhSn1c | 23:32 |
| famax8 | Dfgas: sorry is screensaver preferences | 23:33 |
| mzz | system404: sorry! I'm lazy like that | 23:33 |
| Chr|s | system404: not the place to ask | 23:33 |
| raylu | mzz: i wish i knew how to configure rxvt, though | 23:33 |
| Classic | system404, me gnome | 23:33 |
| Goldline | Guys the check disc integrity check showed errors in 6 files on the ubuntu-desktop disc. can i ocntinue ? | 23:33 |
| Chr|s | system404: try #ubuntu-bots | 23:33 |
| famax8 | in system preferences scrennsavers | 23:33 |
| thecougar | I can't be bothered to remember my birthday every year let alone keybindings / commands | 23:33 |
| phoenixz | I need to install Linux on a SUN T2000 server, can I use Ubuntu Server 8.04 64bits for that purpose? | 23:33 |

| system404 | chris why not place to ask this is ubuntu | 23:33 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 23:33 |
| ee | mzz: i use emacs, urxvt, borderless flux, and for normal browsing elinks | 23:33 |
| Chr|s | system404: no its not :) | 23:33 |
| Goldline | Guys the check disc integrity check showed errors in 6 files on the ubuntu-desktop disc. can i continue ? | 23:33 |
| phoenixz | !sun | 23:33 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: can both computers be mounted at the same time? | 23:33 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sun | 23:33 |
| phoenixz | !sparc | 23:33 |
| ubottu | Have a look here for Docs http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/install/sparc/ KnownIssues and TODO are on the wiki. | 23:33 |
| LjL | !poll | system404t | 23:33 |
| ubottu | system404t: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 23:33 |
| mzz | raylu: I'd throw you my .Xresources, but you probably wouldn't like it anyway, and it's a bit of a mess. | 23:33 |
| phoenixz | ubuntu: Bad bot, that page does not exist! | 23:34 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: you mean mount one on the other and at the same time the other on the first? Sure. | 23:34 |
| phoenixz | ubottu: Bad bot, that page does not exist! | 23:34 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:34 |
| dfgas_ | famax8, thats for screen saver, i want to stop if when coming out of standby | 23:34 |
| raylu | mzz: rxvt is the one with the terminal daemon client thing for quick launching, right? all i want is inconsolata (a ttf font) and fake transparency (draw my desktop background behind my text) | 23:34 |
| ee | raylu: I have a hacked up one as well, for transparency and nice spacing | 23:34 |
| system404 | well im askin here and i respect the users here who have helped me the last 2 days setting up my ubuntu so i hold there oppinion higher than other channels and thus i would like the oppinion of the ppl i feel i can trust as they have helped me allready | 23:34 |
| Goldline | 6 errors continue or not with the installation ? | 23:34 |
| phoenixz | I need to install Linux on a SUN T2000 server, can I use Ubuntu Server 8.04 64bits for that purpose? | 23:34 |
| famax8 | Dfgas: yes you can setup the lock in this, i did meself | 23:35 |
| Chr|s | system404: yes, but this isn't the channel for that, sorry. | 23:35 |
| mzz | raylu: remember urxvt (rxvt-unicode) is a bit different from original rxvt. urxvt does have urxvtd and urxvtc, which I think are what you're after. | 23:35 |
| raylu | mzz: sounds right | 23:35 |
| Goldline | 6 errors continue or not with the installation ? | 23:35 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: its odd then, coz the Desktop can see the laptop but i cant configure, that is when i configure, and hit connect its not accepting password | 23:35 |
| raylu | mzz, ee: can i see your .Xresources, then? | 23:35 |
| dfgas_ | famax8, from stopping doing it when out of standby? | 23:35 |
| mzz | raylu: "man 7 urxvt" explains your various options for transparency (various kinds of fake as well as compositing-manager-based actual transparency) | 23:35 |
| system404 | im a total linux noob and the users on this channel have helped me with everything and so chris if u dnt want to give me ur advice thats fine but to everyone else whos opinions i regard highly please gnome or kde | 23:35 |
| system404 | P.S. classic fanks for ur opinion | 23:36 |
| raylu | system404: for the last time, we won't answer that here | 23:36 |
| mzz | raylu: the .ttf font will probably work, although I have no idea how it'll perform. http://rafb.net/p/C3aMnj30.html is my .Xresources. | 23:36 |
| Goldline | 6 errors continue or not with the installation ? | 23:36 |
| famax8 | yeah was asking the code now i'm grand but i have to chk the manip as my ubuntu is in multi lingual and this particular option is in damn french | 23:36 |
| system404 | raylu u dnt wana answer then dnt but i would respect anyone elses opinion please | 23:36 |

| mzz | livingdaylight: can you tail the logs (I forgot which is the right one, but try /var/log/messages) on the laptop while you're trying to log in from the desktop (or vice versa)? | 23:37 |
| Classic | most people who use ubuntu use gnome, if you want kde use kubuntu, if you want something else your best bet is to install from scratch | 23:37 |
| Seti-Amon | So any idea why in ubuntu resets my overclock down? | 23:37 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, cpu? | 23:37 |
| Seti-Amon | it only see's my processors at 2.6 were bios option sets it at 3.2 | 23:37 |
| raylu | system404: it's not that i won't answer, read the messages we've been telling you. we ask that you do _not_ poll here, only support questions | 23:37 |
| system404 | thanks classic | 23:37 |
| tomal | anyone help with blue screen no desktop xbuntu new install | 23:37 |
| Seti-Amon | a quad core qx6700.the bios has teh option of overclockign set in which i set and used in windows | 23:37 |
| system404 | im not polling im seeking advice as to which me as a new user should use | 23:37 |
| famax8 | raylu: i asked support still no answer i give more than i receive... | 23:38 |
| jimlovell777 | Can anyone identify this line from the output of ps aux? /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 -br -audit 0 -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp vt7 Is that normal? Anyone else have that line? | 23:38 |
| ibuclaw | system404, your mileage may vary | 23:38 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, click on your right panel, go to add to panel | 23:38 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, add cpu frequency scaling monitor and press add | 23:38 |
| mzz | jimlovell777: that sounds mostly reasonable for an X server launched by gdm, although I'm a little surprised it's using /usr/X11R6/bin/X instead of just /usr/bin/X | 23:38 |
| famax8 | DarkRavin: let me know the outcome pls | 23:39 |
| raylu | famax8: how are you trying to mount? | 23:39 |
| ibuclaw | system404, different people have different opinions, you can't really recommend without being biased. best advice is for you to try them out yourself and let you decide. ISOs are free, to you aren't loosing anything. | 23:39 |
| famax8 | raylu: by the basic way as it's my linux dd | 23:39 |
| mzz | jimlovell777: (that's not a problem though, it'll be a symlink if it works at all, which it does) | 23:39 |
| jimlovell777 | mzz: My main concern was to find out if it's malicious. | 23:39 |
| famax8 | the partition was ok this morning | 23:39 |
| raylu | famax8: i meant show me the actual mount command you're using | 23:39 |
| famax8 | not command so far | 23:40 |
| jimlovell777 | mzz: Thanks for the info | 23:40 |
| mzz | jimlovell777: I doubt it, although I guess you could kill it and see if your gui session restarts (don't actually do that :) | 23:40 |
| gartral | how can i convert a wav into an spx from terminal? | 23:40 |
| Seti-Amon | classic:I will do that,in add/remove?so will it obey the bios?i don't want to personally mess with overclocking as I don't want to risk hardware damage,this computer came with overclocking up to 3.2 enabled in the bios | 23:40 |
| famax8 | raylu: got a bunch of datas dont wanna mess with it | 23:40 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, not in add/remove | 23:40 |
| raylu | famax8: you said that you couldn't mount... if you haven't tried mounting, what's the problem? | 23:40 |
| * mzz sort of hoped someone would trigger the !danger factoid for his previous suggestion | 23:40 | |
| TuxMeister_ | hey guys | 23:41 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | does konverter still work with ubuntu because I don't see it in the synaptic manager? | 23:41 |
| cxvxb | I know this is supposed to be simple, but for some reason I can't find where I can change the icon size and the horizontal spacing between icons. Where is it? | 23:41 |
| user__ | please help me stop flickering of intel 950 graphics | 23:41 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, move ur mouse over a panel on top or on the bottom of ur screen, right click it, then press add to panel, then find cpu frequecy scaling monitor, and click add | 23:41 |
| famax8 | raylu: i tried through my desktop right click and through the 'places' still not possible says no privileges but was fine few hours ago | 23:41 |
| jimlovell777 | mzz: lol no worries, I'm not going to attempt it. Even if I did there's no open work I would loose. Good looking out though ;) | 23:41 |
| jimi_hendrix | uhh gnome terminal wont work! wont start my zsh inside it...i just get an error about it failing to make a new process | 23:41 |
| ibuclaw | U-b-u-n-t-u, I see soundkonverter | 23:41 |
| ejv | thecougar: this is linux, you shouldn't ever have to restart to make changes to your desktop manager, did you get it to work? | 23:41 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | ibuclaw, I am looking | 23:41 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, been using this feature for a year no consequences, just longer battary life when needed | 23:41 |
| gartral | how can i convert a wav into an spx from terminal? | 23:42 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: i don't follow | 23:42 |
| mzz | jimlovell777: for further confirmation find something that prints a process tree ("ps -feH" for example) and confirm the process you're talking about was started by gdm | 23:42 |
| Seti-Amon | Says not supported,that motherboard maybe misconfigured? | 23:42 |
| TuxMeister_ | guys, has anybody looked into getting ubuntu arm into the Smart Q7? | 23:42 |
| raylu | famax8: ls /media | 23:42 |
| ejv | thecougar: if that doesn't work, i would google "ubuntu xorg.conf <your resolution>" and edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf DIRECTLY, hope that helps you, this is actually very easy once you do a few ubuntu installs ;) | 23:42 |
| Classic | Seti-Amon, no idea then | 23:42 |
| user__ | please any one help me to fix intel graphic performance of ubuntu 9.04 | 23:42 |

| Chr|s | !repeat | user__ | 23:42 |
| ubottu | user__: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 23:42 |
| sebsebseb | user__: there are some issues for Intel graphics mentioned in the release notes | 23:43 |
| sebsebseb | !notes | 23:43 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) release notes can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes | 23:43 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: there are some reasons (like too wide permissions on ~/.ssh) for ssh to reject logins. Often those get logged on the "server" (the system you're trying to log in to) but not on the client (the one you're connecting from) | 23:43 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: Desktop sees laptop. Laptop doesn't connect to Desktop, so i went into /var/log/ and found lots of messages | 23:43 |
| raylu | famax8: yes | 23:43 |
| user__ | sebsebseb, i know but is there a work around | 23:43 |
| Seti-Amon | btw i meant that in ubuntu it says my clockspeed is 2.6 yet in the bios i have it set to 3.2 like ubuntu has downclocked my settings | 23:43 |
| Gigantic_mini | Hi... I am not new to Linux, and I am having big time problems booting Ubuntu after the install, I was getting err 15 17 18 22! So I went and installed another Lin to set my grub by myself... but I can't get it to boot anything! | 23:43 |
| sebsebseb | user__: if the release notes mentions one | 23:43 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: so for any kind of authentication issue I'd check the logs on the server ("tailf /var/log/messages" while attempting to log in) | 23:43 |
| mugen | can someone help me install my video drivers for my T43? | 23:43 |
| famax8 | pastebin what???? | 23:43 |
| user__ | sebsebseb, can you help me ? | 23:43 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: right, hence i went into /var/log of the Desktop (where i can't access to from laptop) but what am i looking for | 23:43 |
| tomal | is there an xubuntu channel? | 23:44 |
| famax8 | who are you people?? | 23:44 |
| mugen | I downloaded the latest drivers from the intel site and need help installing this "install.sh" file | 23:44 |
| raylu | !xubuntu | tomal | 23:44 |
| ubottu | tomal: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 23:44 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: just tail -f (or tailf) the log on the system you can't log in to, then attempt to log in and see if anything gets added to the log | 23:44 |
| famax8 | what are you doing in my house??? Leave or i call the police!! :P | 23:44 |
| raylu | famax8: ... | 23:44 |
| sebsebseb | user__: nah and I tend to avoide trying to help people with such issues, because they are a pain in the arse, to try and configure and stuff | 23:44 |
| famax8 | raylu: in root i guess | 23:44 |
| jimi_hendrix | anyone? | 23:44 |
| gartral | how can i convert a wav into an spx from terminal? | 23:44 |
| jimlovell777 | mzz: Never run those options before but if I understand what I saw properly then yes /usr/sbin/gdm started the process I posted a moment ago. | 23:44 |
| Gigantic_mini | uhm, Idon' think I'll get help in here... | 23:44 |
| Chr|s | mugen: you have to cd do the directory it is in and sh filename.sh | 23:44 |
| sebsebseb | user__: what's your acstaul issue? I just came back here | 23:44 |
| mzz | jimlovell777: that sounds healthy then | 23:45 |
| jimlovell777 | mzz: yay! thanks. | 23:45 |
| user__ | sebsebseb, video flickering | 23:45 |
| cxvxb | famax8, signal to noise ratio is bad enough here take it to #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:45 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: i just type tail -f ? | 23:45 |
| sebsebseb | user__: look in the release notes, there may be a solution, and if it matters so much well 8.10 will be better with Intel graphics cards | 23:45 |
| famax8 | cxvxb: sorry didnt get it? | 23:45 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: tail -f /var/log/messages (or you might even try tail -f /var/log/*, although that may make a bit of a mess of your terminal by attempting to tail binary files) | 23:45 |
| tomal | cheers ubottu | 23:45 |
| cxvxb | !offtopic famax8 | 23:46 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about offtopic famax8 | 23:46 |
| Chr|s | user__: check the ubuntu wiki too, that could shed some light on your issue as well | 23:46 |
| mzz | (if anyone can tell me what file best to follow here other than "messages" for sshd issues that'd be nice) | 23:46 |
| tomal | and raylu | 23:46 |
| famax8 | raylu: ok it gives me different otions | 23:46 |
| famax8 | cxvxb: what you mean by offtopic? | 23:46 |
| mzz | !offtopic | famax8 | 23:47 |
| ubottu | famax8: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 23:47 |

| mzz | famax8: that, presumably | 23:47 |
| sebsebseb | !intel | 23:47 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about intel | 23:47 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: tail -f /var/log/messages gives me output May 20 23:47:29 hod -- MARK -- | 23:47 |
| raylu | famax8: er, what does ls /media say? | 23:47 |
| mugen | can someone help me upgrade my video drivers for my T43? | 23:47 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: yep. Now try to log in and see if anything gets printed by that tail command | 23:47 |
| Seti-Amon | Damn I changed something now all my effects are disabled.i go to change background and change effects back to extra,there is "custome there" and it now says my hardware not supported | 23:47 |

| Gus_Mireles | hello guys, i have a bunch of questions, i have a windows xp, i would like to install ubuntu, | 23:49 |
| lvdd | it has been released a few weeks or months ago | 23:49 |
| raylu | famax8: anyway, is sdb1 empty? ls /media/sdb1 | 23:49 |
| mzz | Link23: ah. I'm assuming you reinstalled them since then? | 23:49 |
| LadyNikon | Gus_Mireles: ask your questions. | 23:50 |
| === Gus_Mireles is now known as i2go | ||
| i2go | thanks, | 23:50 |
| Link23 | mzz: yes a couple of times. | 23:50 |
| lvdd | it gives some actions on the panel | 23:50 |
| famax8 | raylu: no is damn full or i would force it with no pity lol | 23:50 |
| raylu | famax8: ... then it's already mounted | 23:50 |
| LadyNikon | i2go: in here its just to pust post your questions.. most other stuff like hi, and i have a question will get lost. | 23:50 |
| i2go | how can i install ubuntu into an xp ? | 23:50 |
| billybigrigger_ | anyone here familiar with MX records? or run a mail server? | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | lvdd: what are you after some kind of application? | 23:50 |
| mzz | Link23: can you confirm firefox is not currently running, run "firefox -P" in a terminal window (or through alt+f2), create a new profile, and confirm that works? | 23:50 |
| lvdd | for rxample it can be configured to make md5sums on fikes | 23:50 |
| LadyNikon | i2go: download the ubuntu cd.. there is a windows install | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | i2go: XP as host hummm no thanks | 23:51 |
| mzz | Link23: (this is a debugging step, I'll try to repair the original profile once we've confirmed a new one works) | 23:51 |
| lvdd | it was not gnome-do but something similar | 23:51 |
| P4R41 | i2go: google wubi itll take care of everything for you completely | 23:51 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: still permission denied after 3rd attempt | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | LadyNikon: me as well as other experiended Ubuntu users, woudn't normalley recommend Wubi for various reasons | 23:51 |
| famax8 | raylu: ok it shows me all devices and seems fine i think issue is somwhere else | 23:51 |
| i2go | now how about drivers | 23:51 |
| LadyNikon | i2go: you dont typically install it *into* XP since its an operating system. | 23:51 |
| notvcjack | maco: just wanted to say thanks for your help last night | 23:51 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: and does anything appear in the log on the system you're trying to log into? | 23:51 |
| LadyNikon | sebsebseb: it worked fine for me. | 23:51 |
| FlightlessDuck | yeah, I don't like wubi, just partition... | 23:51 |
| raylu | famax8: indeed. i'm neither familiar with nor do i use the fuse automounting stuff | 23:51 |
| maco | notvcjack, oh, no problem | 23:51 |
| FlightlessDuck | it has no hibernation | 23:52 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: no, and i don't know how to get my prompt back either | 23:52 |
| sebsebseb | LadyNikon: even some of the Ubuntu o p s are against Wubi | 23:52 |
| FlightlessDuck | and its prone to crashing | 23:52 |

| sebsebseb | LadyNikon: in case that calls them | 23:52 |
| famax8 | now mzz and cxvxb and ubottu as i seems to be a burden for you... i hope you will fix this: my wifi state 1ms speed cant get better | 23:52 |
| i2go | can i install ubuntu via usb drive? | 23:52 |
| LadyNikon | sebsebseb: no the trigger calls them | 23:52 |
| thecougar | ejv: i didn't get it to work. i'm playing around with ubuntu to see if it is closer to what i'm normally using for ease of configuartion. i do everything currently graphically and have no plans to go backwards to editing system files directly. so back to other things:) | 23:52 |
| Mack | i think being able to send from admin@gmail.com makes me feel a bit more insecure towards hackers | 23:52 |
| raylu | i2go: indeed | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | LadyNikon: I think the letters like that might as well, after the other day | 23:53 |
| famax8 | now if you don't fix this then ... | 23:53 |
| five-eighths-rul | Anybody got any advice for fixing hard drive errors? I tried to install 9.04, but it couldn't make the first ext3 partition | 23:53 |
| Link23 | mzz: well it showed up for a second then it disappeared | 23:53 |
| raylu | Mack: but the headers show where it actually came from. also, gpg | 23:53 |
| ibuclaw | sebsebseb, I agree, but the risk, especially with the inexperienced partitioner is still too high. | 23:53 |
| Demonicdata | ok i messed it up already | 23:53 |
| Mack | raylu: no, they dont | 23:53 |
| Demonicdata | So check this out | 23:53 |
| Mack | it doesn't say "signed by gmail" | 23:53 |
| ni_ | ogv problem: i upgraded to jaunty and my ogv files do not play anymore, both totem and vlc crash while trying to play them. can't find anything on forums on this. any clue? | 23:53 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: ok, let's try something else. Can you run "ssh -vvv yourusername@192.168.0.500" (adjust ip to match reality) from the (not working) laptop? This should be really noisy and fail. Pastebin the output, assuming it does indeed fail. | 23:53 |
| Mack | but there is NOTHING about me in it | 23:53 |
| raylu | Mack: really? send me an e-mail. lurayl@gmail.com | 23:53 |
| FlightlessDuck | My broadcom wireless card won't work in 9.04 any suggestions? | 23:53 |
| Mack | ok | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | ibuclaw: inexperiended partioner what? guided install tends to do a pretty good job, of course us more experiended users set up the partitions ourselves, but anyway | 23:54 |
| raylu | Mack: i've tried it myself and i saw the headers from my machine | 23:54 |
| RainbowW | under gnome, my dual-head setup works well, and the desktop stretches across both screens. under kde, i can only get them to mirror. what's the magic pixie dust for setting up dual head under kde? | 23:54 |
| Demonicdata | at some point i must of done something because now I have no effects,before i had 'extra effects" enabled but now tere is a "custom and its set to nothing,it says "unable to enable desktop effects" when earlier i had it running just fine.anyone know whats wrong? | 23:54 |
| mzz | Link23: hmm, that's odd. Can you run "strace -f firefox 2>/tmp/stracelog", then pastebin /tmp/stracelog (you may have to apt-get install strace first)? | 23:54 |
| === Demonicdata is now known as SetiAmon | ||
| i2go | fedora vs ubuntu? which is easier to use? which is best? | 23:54 |
| famax8 | ubottu: so?? any idea?? | 23:54 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about so?? any idea?? | 23:54 |
| mzz | Link23: (the log file will be huge, pastebin just the last few 100 lines if it won't fit) | 23:54 |
| sebsebseb | raylu: congratulations you gave out your email address in a publically logged channel, expect spam, altough Gmail's spam filter is pretty good, but still | 23:54 |
| Mack | raylu: the gmail webmail doesn't show it | 23:54 |
| ibuclaw | i2go, decide for yourself, the ISOs are free >:) | 23:54 |
| raylu | mzz: wouldn't it be better to remove .mozilla first? | 23:55 |
| gartral | I have two problems... one... I want to convert a few wavs to speex format.. and the other, more serious one is X will freeze, ussually when im working in firefox/galeon with a lot of photos on a page.. | 23:55 |
| i2go | i'd like an opinion, i have use windows all my life | 23:55 |
| ibuclaw | i2go, if you don't have CDs, you can try them out in VirtualBox | 23:55 |
| mzz | raylu: rarely helps if the profile manager fails. | 23:55 |
| raylu | Mack: ah. i use mutt. but i think there's a "show full headers" thing | 23:55 |
| famax8 | ubottu: what you mean no idea? | 23:55 |
| ubottu | I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:55 |
| EagleScreen | i2go: I think a deb-based as distro As Ubuntu is better | 23:55 |
| raylu | !best | i2go | 23:55 |
| ubottu | i2go: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 23:55 |
| === Ursinha is now known as Ursula | ||
| sebsebseb | raylu: a bit usless for that one since if he asks the bot: what is the best operating system | 23:56 |
| Mack | raylu: check, and see what the headers of my currently sent message say | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | raylu: it will say Ubuntu | 23:56 |
| raylu | i2go: see problem #2 at http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm | 23:56 |
| gymophett | Is there a way to upgrade Gnome? | 23:56 |
| Mack | and at the same time, tell me how sendmail is working, in terms of if u got it allready | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | raylu: ,but sure you did it for the other message | 23:56 |
| ni_ | hi all, i have ogv problem: i upgraded to jaunty and my ogv files do not play anymore, both totem and vlc crash while trying to play them. can't find anything on forums on this. any clue? | 23:56 |

| mzz | famax8: sorry! missed your message earlier. | 23:56 |
| mzz | famax8: I suck at wireless, you're almost certainly better off asking the channel than just me. | 23:57 |

| gymophett | So you guys can hear me? | 23:58 |
| gymophett | or read my text? | 23:58 |
| mzz | Link23: ahh, my bad. I meant "sudo apt-get install strace". | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | i2go: if you want Windows, and your computer has enough RAM, and you don't want to 3D Windows game or some such, you can run it inside Ubuntu | 23:58 |

| famax8 | anyone can help with a wifi issue??? | 23:59 |

| gymophett | rainboww: oh, I probably just made a fool of myself. | 23:59 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: the numbers should definitely differ, but I cannot tell you what they are. | 23:59 |
| famax8 | sebsebseb: pardon? | 23:59 |
| gymophett | I thought my connection was messed up :( | 23:59 |
| mzz | livingdaylight: (both starting with the same three numbers, only differing in the 4th, is a good sign) | 23:59 |
| Link23 | mzz: It says I already have the latest version | 23:59 |
| livingdaylight | mzz: that is what they are. They differ by 100 and 101 | 23:59 |
