| gnelisse | because amarok2 sucks :) | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| custom_ | I'm right there (In partition editing) but I cannot figure out what to do. It does not allow me to create an extended partition. In edit->use as... I see list of filesystems but I do not see the "extended partition" option. So how can I create it? | 00:00 |
| === pizdets is now known as pizzledizzle | ||
| gnelisse | google for "ubuntu 9.04 amarok 1.4", it will tell you howto downgrade | 00:00 |
| SeaPhor | linux_user400354, try vlc | 00:00 |
| linux_user400354 | SeaPhor, I like amarok. i want to make it work | 00:00 |
| aoglobalent | Reading state information... Done compizconfig-settings-manager is already the newest version. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. aoglobalent@aoglobalent-laptop:~$ | 00:00 |
| graelin | custom_: extended is synonymous with logical.. have that option? | 00:01 |
| jtaji | custom_: you would just make a logical, which by definition is placed in an extended partition | 00:01 |
| SeaPhor | well then i wish you well linux_user400354 | 00:01 |
| magroo | any backtrack support_ | 00:01 |
| jtaji | custom_: unless of course you already have an extended partition and that and your new space are physically separated | 00:01 |
| aoglobalent | so, I assume the thing is installed but for some reason it is not working, loool | 00:01 |
| magroo | yhz are my z and y keys switched_ | 00:01 |
| custom_ | I do not see "logical" | 00:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | aoglobalent, type "ccsm" in a terminal then put checks beside cube and spin cube | 00:01 |
| magroo | ? | 00:01 |
| Flannel | magroo: What keyboard layout do you have? | 00:01 |
| custom_ | I do not have one yet | 00:02 |
| magroo | wasd | 00:02 |
| Zzeiss | What does /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist *do*? | 00:02 |
| gabriel_ | okay, the other question... is there a "ready=boost" for ubuntu? | 00:02 |
| jtaji | custom_: should be a selection for primary versus logical, separate from filesystem | 00:02 |
| SeaPhor | aoglobalent, then System > preferences> compizconfig-settings-manager | 00:02 |
| magroo | the ? and _ kezs are backwards too... | 00:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | Zzeiss, it prevents kernel modules (drivers) from being loaded | 00:02 |
| custom_ | I do not have one | 00:02 |
| magroo | *keys | 00:02 |
| Flannel | magroo: er, what? anyway, some european layouts swap the z and y characters (from english keyboards, that is). You might double check you have the right one | 00:03 |
| rww | gabriel_: "readyboost" as in the Windows Vista feature? | 00:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | gabbah, using Flash as memory is not a good idea - it's slow and flash memory burns out | 00:03 |
| Zzeiss | ZykoticK9: Um, does it have wierd semantics? Because I have "blacklist kvm" (it's incompatible with VirtualBox) and yet kvm loads. | 00:03 |
| gabriel_ | yes rww as in making my 4 gig sd into cache | 00:03 |
| magroo | how do i change this in backtrack | 00:03 |
| linux_user400354 | SeaPhor, all i had to do was install phonon-backend-xine | 00:03 |
| Zzeiss | ZykoticK9: ... and, do the other blacklist.whatever files do anything? | 00:03 |
| gabriel_ | or maybe swap? | 00:03 |
| aoglobalent | o.k. | 00:03 |
| aoglobalent | I did it | 00:04 |
| draco_ | gabriel_: preload | 00:04 |
| rww | gabriel_: Putting a swap partition on the SD card would do the same thing, as far as I know. | 00:04 |
| rww | not a particularly grat idea, though, as ZykoticK9 mentioned. | 00:04 |
| rww | s/grat/great/ | 00:04 |
| custom_ | I have 2 primary ones, than goes an unused space and than there goes the third primary one. And I'm trying to place the extended partition in between the primary ones does it ok? | 00:04 |
| SeaPhor | linux_user400354, good, I hope all works to your needs, ;-) | 00:05 |
| magroo | does mony make the world go round, or does, money make people go round the word | 00:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | Zzeiss, what version are you running? i remember that problem from what seems like years ago - under 9.04 "lsmod | grep kvm" gives me nothing | 00:05 |
| draco_ | gabriel_: nvm thinking of the wrong thing. | 00:05 |
| gabriel_ | i have set it as swap, but i don't know if it's working | 00:05 |
| aoglobalent | now what, it is still not working. I press the ctrl+alt+left/right and it does not work | 00:05 |
| linux_user400354 | SeaPhor, yep, its the best linux audio player IMO | 00:05 |
| graelin | aoglobalent: When you get cube checked and such.. don't forget to go into general option and add a few desktops (horizontal = 3 or more) else 'cuce' is pretty boring | 00:05 |
| graelin | cu*be | 00:05 |
| aoglobalent | I have 4 | 00:05 |
| aoglobalent | 4 | 00:06 |
| Zzeiss | ZykoticK9: I'm running 9.04. Kernel is 2.6.28-11-generic . | 00:06 |
| graelin | it looks nice with 5 | 00:06 |
| aoglobalent | will make it 5 | 00:06 |
| aoglobalent | then what | 00:06 |
| usser | gabriel_, you have to add the swap partition to fstab or do swapon /dev/sd[whatever] | 00:06 |
| gabriel_ | I use swapon -a in terminal and ti doesn't do anything. | 00:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | Zzeiss, have you enabled kvm in some way? are you sure there is still a problem with KVM & VB? | 00:06 |
| rob0917 | join #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:06 |
| usser | gabriel_, swapon -a will only work if the partition is in /etc/fstab | 00:06 |
| gabriel_ | oh ok | 00:06 |
| rww | rob0917: throw a / at the start of that :) | 00:07 |
| rob0917 | ty | 00:07 |
| gabriel_ | so then I gedit /etc/fstab? | 00:07 |
| rww | gabriel_: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab. It's not writable by normal users. | 00:07 |
| Zzeiss | ZykoticK9: there was as of late last week. :( (but "rmmod kvm_intel" then "rmmod kvm" does the trick) | 00:07 |
| draco_ | gabriel_: Or swap on /dev/whateverdevice | 00:07 |
| graelin | not entirely sure.. compiz has a billion options.. I have mine set to spin when I scroll wheel click but you can set whatever you want in cube spin plugin | 00:07 |
| rob0917 | join /#ubuntu-offtopic | 00:07 |
| gabriel_ | ahh ok | 00:07 |
| rww | rob0917: at the start. /join #ubuntu-offtopic. | 00:08 |

| rob0917 | ok | 00:08 |
| graelin | Blah memtest86+ takes to damn long | 00:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | Zzeiss, not a problem i'm having but i don't use kvm in any way anymore - use too, but recent VB releases have been amazing | 00:08 |
| Zzeiss | ZykoticK9: Yeah. kvm is left in the dust. *sigh* | 00:08 |
| Zzeiss | Anyway, time to try something else. Thanks all. | 00:09 |
| SeaPhor | aoglobalent, is this a laptop? Usb mouse? | 00:09 |

| aoglobalent | IBM Thinkpad, LEnovo t500 | 00:09 |
| gabriel_ | is correct | 00:09 |
| aoglobalent | High powered ATI graphics card, if u want I can get the exact model?!?! | 00:10 |
| aoglobalent | It has worked before on this box though, that is for sure! | 00:10 |
| gabriel_ | except do I want to remove "noauto"? | 00:10 |
| SeaPhor | aoglobalent, is there a scroll section on the touchpad? | 00:10 |
| aoglobalent | hu? | 00:10 |
| SeaPhor | aoglobalent, as of yet, ATI does NOT support compiz, that said, i can make it work | 00:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | gabbah, don't remove noauto from a cd mount - or it will mount the cd every time you boot - what if there is no cd there? | 00:11 |
| aoglobalent | How? | 00:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | gabriel_, sorry see above | 00:11 |
| usser | gabriel_, noauto is for cdrom there | 00:11 |
| gabriel_ | oh wrong line then lol | 00:11 |
| elitecoder | When I'm sure permissions are correct to allow writing to a file.. what else should I try? | 00:12 |
| gabriel_ | how do I tell if it | 00:12 |
| aoglobalent | Seaphor, how... Can u help me?!?! | 00:12 |
| elitecoder | I think there was one more thing that even blocks our root | 00:12 |
| gabriel_ | working>? | 00:12 |
| elitecoder | out * | 00:12 |
| SeaPhor | aoglobalent, compiz details is kinda OT here, if you want to join #seaphor i'll help u there | 00:12 |
| gabriel_ | sorry my enter button extremely sensitive lol | 00:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | elitecoder, what are you trying to do? | 00:12 |
| aoglobalent | how do I join bro, Seaphor? | 00:13 |
| erUSUL | elitecoder: check the parent directory permissions | 00:13 |
| elitecoder | I want www-data to be able to move files into /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing. | 00:13 |
| elitecoder | erUSUL: I'm doing that now. | 00:13 |
| elitecoder | so far they're fine | 00:13 |

| graelin | is ext4 complete, or is it a squirrelly fs technology? | 00:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | gabriel_, use pastbin for stuff like that | 00:15 |
| B3rz3rk3r | gabriel_, careful or floodboot will get u | 00:15 |
| shane2peru | does anyone know where I can find soome good mencoder experts? | 00:15 |
| rww | graelin: It works fine for me, but isn't considered tested enough to be Ubuntu's default yet. | 00:15 |
| elitecoder | Permissions: /var (drwxr-xr-x) | 00:15 |
| shane2peru | I have managed to find a way to record my vhs however I need some mencoder pointers to slow down the video | 00:16 |
| elitecoder | var/spool (drwxr-xr-x) | 00:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | shane2peru, mencoder is pretty complicated and made by the same people as mplayer - best of luck | 00:16 |
| B3rz3rk3r | graelin, iv seen great improvement in boot time with EXT4, and large file transfers complete a few seconds quicker, but honetly if you hadnt been told it was there instead of EXT3 you prob would notice | 00:16 |
| elitecoder | var/spool/asterisk/ (drwxr-x--- ) | 00:16 |
| elitecoder | asterisk/outgoing (drwxrwx---) | 00:16 |
| shane2peru | ZykoticK9: yes, I have found it to be kind of complex, however very capable app | 00:16 |
| elitecoder | hmm | 00:16 |
| graelin | i've had to install ubuntu 3 times in the last day... can't track the problem down for the life of me... suspecting disk/io/hardware problems | 00:16 |
| gabriel_ | wha's pastbin? | 00:16 |
| erUSUL | !paste | gabriel_ | 00:16 |
| ubottu | gabriel_: 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) | 00:16 |
| draco_ | graelin: For whatever reason it works faster on flash drives too. | 00:17 |
| shane2peru | ok how about the chat room for mplayer support? | 00:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | shane2peru, mplayer & mencoder are AMAZING - strongest media player/encoder available IMHO | 00:17 |
| gnelisse | anyone here using ldap authentication for pam ? | 00:17 |
| gabriel_ | okay thanks | 00:17 |
| rww | shane2peru: #mplayer on Freenode; see http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=MPlayer_FAQ | 00:17 |
| shane2peru | ZykoticK9: I agree, it is too bad you need a college degree in mplayer to use all it's features. :) | 00:17 |
| shane2peru | thanks rww | 00:17 |
| B3rz3rk3r | draco_ formatting flash drives to EXT4 or your OS accessing them? | 00:18 |
| Brack10 | mplayer rules | 00:18 |
| Brack10 | mpd rules even more | 00:18 |
| Brack10 | for music | 00:18 |
| draco_ | B3rz3rk3r: Installing the entire OS to a flash drive and running it from there. | 00:18 |
| TheNano | ZykoticK9: have seen smplayer ? | 00:18 |
| shane2peru | rww: thanks | 00:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | TheNano, yup, i've tried all the mplayer frontends - personally I like mplayer-nogui, but that's just me | 00:19 |
| B3rz3rk3r | draco_ im doing that for my installation, and running live from there, are you running permenant OS from a USB tho? 0.o | 00:19 |
| graelin | I've been happy with it, but here's my deal. First disaster was caused by installing and running handbrake. Fairly sure that was a version problem. But it crashed the machine hard and when I rebooted, it kernel panicked about not being able to synch root fs on VFS or unknown block (0,0) or somesuch | 00:19 |
| gabriel_ | is there a way to install on a 4 gig sd card so that windows is untouched? I can't boot to the sd card, but I could probably make an usb bootdisk thing | 00:19 |
| === german is now known as Guest92212 | ||
| draco_ | B3rz3rk3r: Permanent, not the "install to flash drive" live version. | 00:20 |
| ali_ | hi | 00:20 |
| kree | hey guys where is general chat | 00:20 |
| Jaison | omg | 00:21 |
| Jaison | tem alguem aew? | 00:21 |
| graelin | so I reinstalled... then the mouse randomly stops working usually moving a window. restarting X seemed to help, but usually it would hang on the restart... still kinda does that I think, but this recent crash is pissin me off to much to worry bout that | 00:21 |
| Flannel | kree: #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:21 |
| erUSUL | gabriel_: if you do not want to touch windows you may want to try wubi (disclaimer: never used it myself ) | 00:21 |
| erUSUL | !wubi | gabriel_ | 00:21 |
| ubottu | gabriel_: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 00:21 |
| kree | Flannel: thanks | 00:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | gabriel_, depending on the speed of you SD card, running from SD is very slow :( tried this a couple of times for my EEE but you really need fast SD cards to make it bearable | 00:21 |
| lyrae | when i open an app, it keeps opening in the bottom left corner of my monitor, why? | 00:22 |
| gabriel_ | okay so wubi is the way to go then. I have used it and it seems to work fine. | 00:22 |
| gabriel_ | The only thing is that I only have a 130 gig hd and didn't want to use it up. | 00:23 |
| draco_ | gabriel_: Delete some porn. | 00:23 |
| gabriel_ | lol no porn, things like .net professional editors and doom III | 00:24 |
| bruce_ | how do I figure out where in /dev my dvd device is ? | 00:24 |
| graelin | can't get in anymore.. boots up, but hangs on startup sound. even with gnome failsafe. If I can get in on a cmd line, what file do I need to edit to disable the previous session settings... specifically start up programs | 00:25 |
| gabriel_ | .net pro takes 12 dvd's to install lol | 00:25 |
| draco_ | gabriel_: Yeah.... I've hid it in those folders too.... :-) | 00:25 |
| rww | bruce_: it should be symlinked from /dev/dvd | 00:25 |
| kree | garbrial: porn and doom, that what computer where ment for | 00:25 |
| LadyNikon | bruce_: i think if you type mount you can see it | 00:26 |
| kree | garbrial: .net is a fine example of how to waste space | 00:26 |
| gabriel_ | so you saying there should be porn in doom III? | 00:26 |
| rww | kree, draco_: I'd prefer if you didn't mention pornography in here; it tends to make some people uncomfortable. Thanks :) | 00:26 |
| kree | rww: sorry :P | 00:26 |
| arand | also, you're offtopic. :P | 00:26 |
| graelin | however pron is perfectly acceptable | 00:26 |
| draco_ | lol, np | 00:26 |
| gabriel_ | well I have to go to other things. | 00:26 |
| erUSUL | ontopic folks | 00:27 |
| gabriel_ | one more question. does swap get used at all if my ram is not full? | 00:28 |
| dobigeon | hello, i'm testing my new linux distribution | 00:28 |
| graelin | not likely | 00:28 |
| _dark_ | no | 00:28 |
| graelin | swap is becomming a red herring | 00:28 |
| rww | gabriel_: a very amount will; most of it won't. It'll also be used if you hibernate. | 00:28 |
| gabriel_ | okay so having 4 gigs of ram I don't even need the swap? | 00:28 |
| brian_ | hey, how can I make my desktop load faster? | 00:29 |
| jrib | gabriel_: you do if you want to suspend to disk | 00:29 |
| gabriel_ | it says I can't hibernate | 00:29 |
| arand | gabriel_: If you want hibernation you do. | 00:29 |
| rww | gabriel_: One of the prerequisites for hibernation is that you have a larger swap than your RAM. | 00:29 |
| * rww isn't sure whether it all needs to be on the same swap partition | 00:30 | |
| graelin | 55 mins... 75% done on memory test <sigh> | 00:30 |
| gabriel_ | okay when I installed I used the SD as swap which is same as ram. but it won't use it to hibernate. | 00:30 |
| rww | gabriel_: A 4GB SD card probably doesn't have 4GB of usable space. | 00:30 |
| bwv544 | hi, someone knows how to use a midi peripheral ? | 00:30 |
| myself | how do i make my HD automatically mount on startup in UBUNTU | 00:30 |
| erUSUL | !fstab | myself | 00:30 |
| gabriel_ | oh so I need an 8 gig one then lol | 00:30 |
| ubottu | myself: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 00:30 |
| myself | can you just tell me | 00:31 |
| arand | myself: manual editing of fstab. | 00:31 |
| myself | how do i do dat | 00:31 |
| myself | hmm ill look | 00:31 |
| graelin | myself: magic wand | 00:31 |
| myself | can u show me graey alien | 00:31 |
| arand | myself: you could try something like mountmanager which is agui version, might be simpler. | 00:32 |
| graelin | sudo vi /etc/fstab and duplicate a known mounting fs. remember to change the device in question | 00:32 |
| myself | hmm | 00:32 |
| gabriel_ | it says that using that uuid is not allowed | 00:32 |
| arand | graelin: zomg, you're giving him VI?, nano does exist... | 00:33 |
| gabriel_ | how do I hibernate from terminal? | 00:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | myself, graelin don't try using vi - perhaps "sudo nano /etc/fstab" would be more your speed | 00:33 |
| brian_ | is there a fast desktop like compiz, but one that doesn't ruin 3d applications? | 00:33 |
| rww | gabriel_: pm-hibernate | 00:34 |
| moz_ | slm | 00:34 |
| graelin | gabriel_: get a 4GB thumbdrive (8 would be better) and use the USB startup disk install utility under system/admin. Boot off the jumpdrive and you have instant portable linux | 00:34 |
| jrib | brian_: how about compiz? | 00:34 |
| rww | brian_: Compiz' | 00:34 |
| myself | what the hell is mountmanager | 00:34 |
| rww | brian_: Compiz's problems with 3D apps are a limitation of current Xorg drivers, not Compiz. | 00:34 |
| myself | i dont like it | 00:34 |
| myself | arrr | 00:34 |
| arand | brian_: you could always use metacity --replace & and compiz --replace & to switch when playing fullscreen games.. | 00:34 |
| graelin | myself: My wife... but she doesn't ever manage mounting in my favor | 00:35 |
| myself | hmm | 00:35 |
| myself | SO WHAT DO I TYPE in mount manager to get it to mount my HD :) | 00:35 |
| myself | on startup | 00:35 |
| rww | myself: Try reading the link that ubottu gave you, and come back with questions you have once you've done that. | 00:35 |
| myself | alright im gona remove mountmanager | 00:36 |
| graelin | what is on this HD? Is it like a spare data drive, or part of existing fs? Ubuntu has always played nice with attached devices | 00:36 |
| myself | its my NTFS partitition basically | 00:36 |
| gabriel_ | LOL cool!!!! that's awesome instant portable ubuntu | 00:37 |
| myself | yeah so jesus christ why can't you just tell me the command to mount it on startup | 00:37 |
| myself | i dont know the command | 00:37 |
| jrib | !language | myself | 00:38 |
| ubottu | myself: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 00:38 |
| graelin | try adding the panel applet to panel that handles mounting. Should see the drive when you boot and then you can manually mount it using the applet. Only way you will get an automount is with an entry in fstab, and since I'm not in Linux to look at that file, I can't help ya | 00:38 |
| jrib | !ntfs > myself | 00:38 |
| ubottu | myself, please see my private message | 00:38 |
| arand | myself: there is unfortunately no *one command* for it, it depends on you partitioning layout, what permissions you want it to be mounted with, etc. | 00:39 |
| gabriel_ | thanks for the help | 00:39 |
| gabriel_ | byebye | 00:39 |
| myself | okay ubottu sent me the right thing, thanky ou | 00:39 |
| Laibsch | Is anybody aware of a solution to stripe several filesystems into one? I know about LVM, but AFAIK that can only work on real device nodes (hardware). I want to store a couple of 2G files on a fileserver and cluster them together to form a 10G ext3 filesystem. | 00:42 |
| moz_ | slm | 00:42 |
| tacoma949 | hello room, trying to mount a ntfs drive and i get the error... unable to mount, logfile indicates unclean shutdown and then another error that shows... dbus error the remote app did not send a reply, the timeout expired | 00:43 |
| moz_ | slm | 00:44 |
| jimlovell777 | can anyone tell me what this folder (.python-eggs) in my home dir belongs to? System file or is it from something else? | 00:44 |
| myself | thank psydm is actually a really good mounting program, alright peace | 00:44 |
| myself | thanks! | 00:44 |
| draco_ | tacoma949: You didn't shut down windows cleanly the last time you were in it. | 00:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | jimlovell777, nothing in your home directory is a system file. i have no idea what .python-eggs is. | 00:45 |
| JohnnyVbox | LoL i done so much stupidity that i am reinstalling ubuntu | 00:45 |
| JohnnyVbox | god bless that i am using virtualbox | 00:45 |
| tacoma949 | ? i use linux draco_ | 00:45 |
| draco_ | tacoma949: Then why are you mounting a NTFS parition? | 00:46 |
| arand | jimlovell777: could try something like: dpkg -S ~/.python-eggs/* | 00:46 |
| jimlovell777 | ZykoticK9: So I can safely delete it likely? I realize it has something to do with python, it's the egg part that makes me curious. Inside the folder is this folder Blocklist-1.0-py2.6.egg-tmp, three pngs and a glade file | 00:46 |
| tacoma949 | draco_, because i need data off of a external | 00:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | jimlovell777, i have no idea what it is. but anything in your home directory belongs to you - so it's your choice if you delete it or not | 00:47 |
| draco_ | tacoma949: Ewww... Easiest way is to attach it to a windows machine and do a clean shutdown, otherwise you have to learn a couple console commands to ignore the errors. | 00:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | jimlovell777, always safe to make a backup first | 00:48 |
| JohnnyVbox | always better NOT to mess with ntfs in case you have important files | 00:49 |
| jimlovell777 | ZykoticK9: Yea I just get cautious deleting stuff in my Home dir because once I did and was unable to log in :\ this seems safe to delete though, thanks for the input. | 00:49 |

| je||y | JohnnyVbox: what do i do? | 01:00 |
| JohnnyVbox | [je||y]: wait, let me think | 01:01 |
| wubrgamer | I'm going to start using them more to "tag" my filenames so they come up more easily in searches of the filenames | 01:01 |
| wubrgamer | is that a bad idae? | 01:01 |
| graelin | <-- hopes THIS install takes without funky crash typ problems | 01:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | wubrgamer, spaces are delt with on command line by using either " around the whole name, or the \ to escape the space - so it's really just a bit of a pain more then anything else - breaks my scripts all the time - so i typically have to script a conversion of spaces to underscores. but space are perfectly acceptable. | 01:01 |
| libtech | how can i get involved in developing for ubuntu? | 01:01 |
| Ron586 | good, made it back | 01:01 |

| rww | JohnnyVbox: I note that libgtk1.2 is scheduled to be removed from the next version of Ubuntu (Karmic). | 01:32 |

| JohnnyVbox | [rww]: impossible to find | 01:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | jvainio, "...-src" means source, more complcated i think - gonna search for what this is | 01:33 |
| graelin | what is the io mechanism in Jaunty? | 01:33 |

| rww | JohnnyVbox: what version of Ubuntu are you using? | 01:33 |
| JohnnyVbox | [rww]: jaunty | 01:34 |
| david_ | rww: 10x :) | 01:34 |
| seedofc | ambient_: maybe there is something in 'ifconfig wlan0' that will correspond to an 'lspci' output? | 01:34 |
| jvainio | ZykoticK9: Its just that when i run make install, it says please give a DATADIR in Makefile.unix - which i go to specify, but still it doesnt want to install it. same error, no DATADIR given on line 228 of that file | 01:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | jvainio, yup that is the source code you have there - no bin packages for you by the looks of things | 01:34 |
| graelin | no its plugged in... everything was great until I upgraded to jaunty.. now I have problems over the board, no useful info in the logs and no idea where to start | 01:34 |
| rww | JohnnyVbox: "sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2" works fine for me on Jaunty. Are you sure you typed it correctly? Do you have the universe repository enabled? | 01:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | jvainio, did you run ./configure first? | 01:35 |

| ubottu | jvainio, please see my private message | 01:35 |
| ambient_ | I've tried matching anything that ifconfig gives me, ifconfig only gives irq/iomem addresses for ethX interfaces. | 01:35 |

| epalm | i don't want gnome's file browser to display preview icons of movie files. how can i prevent this? | 01:36 |
| rww | JohnnyVbox: by the way, "rww:" highlights in more clients than "[rww]:". Try tab-completion if you aren't already :) | 01:36 |
| rww | !tab | JohnnyVbox | 01:36 |
| jvainio | ZykoticK9: I am very sorry, could you help me please? | 01:36 |
| ubottu | JohnnyVbox: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 01:36 |
| JohnnyVbox | [rww]: ok | 01:37 |
| JohnnyVbox | rww like this? | 01:37 |
| seedofc | ambient_: does dmesg show anything? | 01:37 |
| chiques | ./ | 01:37 |
| gordonjcp | JohnnyVbox: don't do that square-bracket thing, it doesn't highlight my nick and it makes it hard to track when you reply | 01:37 |
| seedofc | ambient_: dmesg | grep wlan0 | 01:37 |
| gordonjcp | JohnnyVbox: I must admit, I haven't installed ET since installing jaunty | 01:37 |
| killfill | hi | 01:37 |
| ambient_ | doesnt show anything interesting | 01:37 |
| JohnnyVbox | [gordonjcp]: et rocks! | 01:38 |
| killfill | how do i monitor the temperature of my ATOM cpu? | 01:38 |
| rww | epalm: You can change some preview icon settings in Nautilus preferences (Edit > Preferences > Preview). I'm not sure how to do it if you /just/ want to stop movie files (rather than all "other previewable files". | 01:38 |
| gordonjcp | JohnnyVbox: fail installer is made of fail | 01:38 |
| mil | zzxscxcvxvbvnbmyjhuy | 01:38 |
| ambient_ | lsof didnt function when I try to grep for wlan0 | 01:38 |
| JohnnyVbox | [gordonjcp]: win installer is made of win, i am installing it | 01:38 |
| seedofc | ambient_: I don't have a wlan0, but I have an eth0 and I was able to run that command and get the chipset/model (RTL8168b/8111b) | 01:38 |
| graelin | epalm: try ubuntu-tweak from getdeb.com | 01:38 |
| ambient_ | I know it, worked for the ethx interfaces | 01:38 |
| JohnnyVbox | gordonjcp you should say fail user is made of fail, as i am nooby lol | 01:38 |
| rww | killfill: lm-sensors is the normal way of measuring CPU temperature, but I'm not sure whether the version of it in Ubuntu supports Atoms. I'll link you the install guide so you can try. | 01:38 |
| ambient_ | thanks anyhow | 01:38 |
| rww | !lm-sensors | killfill | 01:38 |
| ubottu | killfill: To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. | 01:38 |
| gordonjcp | JohnnyVbox: no, it shouldn't require a package that old | 01:39 |
| === solid_li` is now known as solid_liq | ||
| grkblood13 | is there a way to script a .txt of all metadata? | 01:39 |
| gordonjcp | JohnnyVbox: that gtk package was thoroughly obsolete even when ET was newly released | 01:39 |
| epalm | rww: other previewable files is "local files only, less than 10mb", however i have movie files on a mounted drive (not local) which are certainly larger than 10mb taking a few seconds each to display previews for | 01:39 |
| gordonjcp | JohnnyVbox: what's really going to get on your wick is ET *requires* OSS audio | 01:39 |
| JohnnyVbox | [gordonjcp]: yeah.... | 01:39 |
| gordonjcp | JohnnyVbox: and that has been obsolete for over a decade | 01:40 |
| JohnnyVbox | gordonjcp there is a patch for that | 01:40 |

| tik | i need help with resolution for my ps3, some one please help | 01:40 |
| epalm | rww: what are you asking here. they're mounted. | 01:40 |
| gordonjcp | JohnnyVbox: I needed to faff about with my soundcards to get it to work, ensuring that I had a cheap and crappy onboard sound card as the first device | 01:40 |
| epalm | rww: via fstab, if that's what you're asking | 01:41 |
| gordonjcp | JohnnyVbox: OSS is incapable of dealing with anything other than a single stereo soundcard, and quite comprehensively cacks itself if you try to use a modern card | 01:41 |
| tik | i need help with resolution for my ps3, some one please help | 01:41 |
| rww | epalm: yes, it was. I'm not too familiar with network-mounted stuff, but it's possible GNOME isn't detecting it as non-local because it's mounted through fstab instead of it's volume manager. | 01:41 |
| JohnnyVbox | [gordonjcp]: lol, there is a patch to make it work with alsa drivers...... | 01:41 |

| graelin | IamSOG: not necessarily... you'd have to change ownership/permissions on the files | 01:45 |
| rww | IamSOG: that's probably not a good idea. It's likely that various configuration files refer to /home/userA, and files outside of the home directory (like stuff in /tmp/ and /var/) won't be copied over. And there's a myriad of potential permissions problems... | 01:46 |

| whazilla | but dusty and wet :p | 02:03 |
| graelin | The_Mime: is samba installed on the linux box | 02:03 |
| whazilla | i dont wanne open it | 02:03 |
| fryguy | Gourlis: take a look at the changelog, determine if it has anything of value to you, and if so, upgrade. If not, stay where you are | 02:03 |
| matt__ | whazilla: Don't sit it on a pillow in your lap ;-) | 02:03 |
| rww | dusty and wet... on a computer... sounds like a recipe for disaster. | 02:03 |
| whazilla | i'll kill the machine (laptop) and cause another revolt of the machines | 02:03 |
| LjL | Gourlis: that strongly depends on their needs. 8.04, being LTS, is more suited to users who prefer not to upgrade too often, and aim for stability. | 02:03 |
| fryguy | whazilla: so then send it to a professional to take care of it for you | 02:04 |
| whazilla | i cant | 02:04 |
| whazilla | its the heat | 02:04 |

| rocky | there are some builds of it that people have made that are free | 02:26 |

| fryguy | rocky: a project being opensource doesn't exclude it from being shareware | 02:26 |

| niadh | Mister_Blood: Itś quite alright, glad your questions were able to be answered. | 02:27 |
| Mister_Blood | I do, but when I googled the "agent.3255" it looked like malware | 02:27 |
| JohnnyVbox | enemy territory quits with signal 11 | 02:27 |
| JohnnyVbox | and i get no errors at all | 02:27 |
| rww | Jordan_U: little late there ;) | 02:28 |
| fryguy | Mister_Blood: for the most part there is no such thing as "malware" in *nix based systems | 02:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | JohnnyVbox, stop trying to run game in VMs - problem solved | 02:28 |
| lapwook | Jordan_U: i got my answer all ready but thanks :) | 02:28 |
| JohnnyVbox | [ZykoticK9]: i got full opengl... why cant i? | 02:28 |
| PcGamer | .Hello, do i need admin privelleges in order to create a live cd with unetbootin? | 02:28 |
| niadh | Mister_Blood: It is possible the malware downloaded, but its not possible for the malware to actually run under linux, tis like a fish catching swine flu, just doesnt affect it | 02:29 |
| Mister_Blood | gotcha | 02:29 |
| JohnnyVbox | yeah joke with people's suffering | 02:29 |
| Jordan_U | PcGamer: To create a live USB drive, yes | 02:29 |
| PcGamer | :'( | 02:29 |
| PcGamer | Jordan_U: is there anyway to do it on XP guest account? | 02:30 |
| niadh | I wasn joking, i was using a topical metaphor to illustrate a point. | 02:30 |
| jdu | JohnnyVbox: signal 11 generally indicates something is wrong with the program itself | 02:30 |
| lapwook | Jordan_U: is it normal for a 1TB drive to format pretty much instantly? or am I used to old hardware :) | 02:30 |
| PcGamer | lol | 02:30 |
| JohnnyVbox | [jdu]: yeah.... | 02:30 |
| Jordan_U | PcGamer: Actually I may be wrong | 02:30 |
| PcGamer | :O | 02:30 |
| fryguy | lapwook: creating a filesytem is pretty much instantaneous on any hardware | 02:30 |
| JohnnyVbox | [jdu]: so.. i got no luck? | 02:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | jdu, JohnnyVbox was getting sig11 for quake 3 too - it's cause it's running in a VM | 02:30 |
| jdu | JohnnyVbox: in otherwords, it is trying to access memory it's not allowed to or some similar opporation | 02:30 |
| PcGamer | well when i set my bios to boot from usb drive, it says Disk error press any key to restart | 02:30 |
| PcGamer | then it starts XP and XP checks the disk | 02:31 |
| rww | lapwook: Depends on which type of format it did. NTFS has two different types, and the one that's usually used is pretty dang quick. | 02:31 |
| jdu | JohnnyVbox: probably you are triggering a bug that is causing it to have a segmentation fault ... which is why linux sends signal 11 to it | 02:31 |
| lapwook | rww it's a 1tb NAS | 02:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | rww, the ONLY difference between a windows Quick format and Full - is full formats then runs a check disk | 02:31 |
| JohnnyVbox | [jdu]: i get a RE_Shutdown ( 1 ) | 02:31 |
| JohnnyVbox | [jdu]: then Recieved signal 11, exiting... | 02:32 |
| PcGamer | Jordan_U: do u know how to? | 02:32 |
| JohnnyVbox | [jdu]: but NO errors at all | 02:32 |
| rww | ZykoticK9: right, and a disk check on 1TB would take forever. Overwriting the MFT... not so much. | 02:32 |
| niadh | Does anyone know why locations that used to be detected by gnome/evolution calendar are no longer present? | 02:32 |
| JohnnyVbox | [jdu]: the game starts running and i see the black screen wich means that et is running | 02:32 |
| jdu | JohnnyVbox: http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/ | 02:32 |
| bastid_raZor | JohnnyVbox, maybe you should be asking in the #vmware or #vbox | 02:33 |
| jdu | JohnnyVbox: that's about compiling kernel but gives similar idea | 02:33 |
| JohnnyVbox | [bastid_raZor]: yeah | 02:33 |
| PcGamer | meow? | 02:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | JohnnyVbox, just as an FYI (and not to encourage you) i did get OpenArena running quite well in a VirtualBox VM | 02:34 |
| rww | PcGamer: hi | 02:34 |
| rocky | here is the lspci.... http://pastie.org/494661 | 02:34 |
| rocky | I can't get my microphone to work | 02:34 |
| JohnnyVbox | [ZykoticK9]: ubuntu right? | 02:34 |
| fryguy | why not just run quake in native linux? | 02:35 |
| PcGamer | rww: i installed ubuntu 9.0.4 with unetbootin and when i set my bios to boot from usb, it says disk error press any key to restart | 02:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | fryguy, in JohnnyVbox's case i think it would be native Windows | 02:35 |
| PcGamer | and then goes to windows XP, got any ideas how to fix? | 02:35 |
| JohnnyVbox | i am just testing stuff | 02:35 |
| JohnnyVbox | i know now that ogl is fine | 02:35 |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: why? he's running linux as the host OS | 02:36 |
| JohnnyVbox | but i WANT to make this work for benchmark's sake | 02:36 |
| rww | PcGamer: 1) it's 9.04, 2) Did you format the USB stick first? I think I had that problem and it fixed it. | 02:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | fryguy, are you sure about that | 02:36 |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: yes | 02:36 |
| JohnnyVbox | fryguy actually youre wrong, i am running xp as host | 02:36 |
| PcGamer | thats the thing | 02:36 |
| PcGamer | on XP guest account. | 02:36 |
| PcGamer | sigh, now i gotta wait for my sis to get off the crappy pc to format it | 02:36 |
| rocky | huh | 02:36 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: so you are running ubuntu in a virtual machine and trying to run quake in native linux in a virtual machine? | 02:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | fryguy, yup | 02:37 |
| JohnnyVbox | fryguy yeah | 02:37 |
| * rocky stupidly assumed his microphone wouldn't work in 9.04 like how it didn't work in 8.10 | 02:37 | |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: and what exactly are you benchmarking? | 02:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | fryguy, sorry? | 02:37 |
| JohnnyVbox | fryguy i am benching cpu stuff | 02:37 |
| rww | fryguy: how much time he can waste with virtual machines and unnecessary problems | 02:37 |
| JohnnyVbox | rww you got the point lol | 02:37 |
| Jordan_U | PcGamer: Looks like you need admin privaleges to install syslinux ( the bootloader ) https://bugs.launchpad.net/unetbootin/+bug/325786 | 02:38 |
| JohnnyVbox | rww actually i am changing to linux as i get a new harddrive | 02:38 |
| JohnnyVbox | rww so i am getting ready to anything that might appear | 02:38 |
| JohnnyVbox | rww actually i learned alot with that already | 02:38 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: so you have a native linux environment to work with, just run strace and go through the code and see what is causing sigsegv | 02:38 |
| nguyendinhmanh | hi | 02:38 |
| Jordan_U | PcGamer: Is there no other computer you can use? | 02:38 |
| rww | JohnnyVbox: Ubuntu on Virtualbox is very different from Ubuntu on actual hardware, in terms of compatibility... | 02:39 |
| JohnnyVbox | fryguy you just fried my head | 02:39 |
| JohnnyVbox | rww yeah, but i already learned alot about linux distros, wich one is easier, getting and installing kernel / kernel devel packages | 02:39 |
| JohnnyVbox | installing stuff | 02:39 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: lol | 02:40 |
| JohnnyVbox | and i also fooled with some shell coding | 02:40 |

| neoTheCat | does anyone know how i can? | 02:40 |
| fryguy | neoTheCat: log in as a different user in each X session | 02:41 |
| rww | neoTheCat: or use different firefox profiles with each session | 02:41 |
| fryguy | the more correct answer is to just run 1 xsession, there's really no reason to run X11 2x | 02:41 |
| neoTheCat | fryguy: for me there is. i will try the profiles suggestion | 02:42 |
| JohnnyVbox | run 1 x with 1 desktop each monitor | 02:42 |
| fryguy | neoTheCat: why not just run 1 X session that uses both monitors? | 02:42 |

| rww | FUbbyCD: I've used http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_linux_and_windows_xp_linux_installed_first.htm to do it in the past. | 02:44 |
| mib_36i8pz | greetings! | 02:44 |
| neoTheCat | fryguy: okalee dokalee. i will give that a try. | 02:44 |
| fryguy | FUbbyCD: you put a windows boot cd in and run fixmbr | 02:44 |
| jdu | fryguy: hey, I bet someone's done it | 02:44 |
| FUbbyCD | thanks | 02:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | fryguy, not it isn't xinerama is one big screen, i think neoTheCat knows what he wants | 02:44 |
| fryguy | jdu: i'm sure somebody has as well, which is why i said "almost no reason" | 02:44 |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: xinerama is most definetely NOT one big screen, unless the window manager you are using is treating it incorrectly | 02:44 |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: i run xinerama on my dual screen setup and can control the contents of each screen individually | 02:45 |
| neoTheCat | i'll look up xinerama on the internets | 02:45 |
| FUbbyCD | i really hate closed source corporate crap.. I love ubuntu but I cant get any professional quality DAWs like Cubase, fruity loops, or logic pro | 02:45 |
| neoTheCat | from the wikipedia: Xinerama is an extension to the X Window System which enables multi-headed X applications and window managers to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. | 02:45 |
| Er1K | any sed experts out there....any idea how I can replace all occurrences of two or more spaces with ONE tab? | 02:45 |
| neoTheCat | so that's not what i want | 02:45 |
| v3xed | hey, all @_:D | 02:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | fryguy, read the first line of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xinerama | 02:46 |
| Pici | Er1K: s/\ {2,}/\t/g | 02:46 |
| fryguy | Er1K: try something like 's/ ?/^I/g | 02:46 |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: read the rest of the article, and take some time to actually set up a xinerama configuration and use it with a window manager that correctly supports the extension | 02:47 |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: note the references to 'active physical display' | 02:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | fryguy, i don't want to argue with you | 02:47 |
| neoTheCat | so i guess there is no way to start two firefoxes in different X sessions with the same profile? | 02:47 |
| tiniwinibiti | j #Dalnet | 02:48 |
| fryguy | neoTheCat: no, because of the locking semantics that firefox uses on the filesystem it's not capable of sharing files with different processes | 02:48 |
| rww | neoTheCat: no, Firefox gets whiny about the possibility of two different instances writing to one profile. | 02:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | neoTheCat, i never found a way - when i had the same setup as you i used firefox in one sessions and mozilla/opera in the other | 02:48 |
| Ron586 | made it back.. yhea | 02:48 |
| neoTheCat | that's really annoying, but oh well. thanks for your help. | 02:49 |
| fryguy | neoTheCat: just set up X11 correctly and you won't have any problems | 02:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | neoTheCat, if you do switch to a Xinerama/Twinview setup then you can have Firefox open on both monitors | 02:49 |
| RProgrammer_ | Where can I find the boot.img.gz file for Kubuntu 9.04? | 02:49 |

| linux | Hello! How do I get conky to show the date highlighted with bash cal command? | 02:50 |
| Darn | should you report a threat to rape you on IRC to the police? | 02:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | neoTheCat, it was just an FYI sorta thing | 02:50 |
| ikonia | Darn: speak to freenode staff in #freenode or the current channel ops | 02:50 |
| RProgrammer_ | ikonia: Boot from a USB or Netboot | 02:51 |
| RProgrammer_ | ikonia: But onto a MacBook with its CD drive broken | 02:51 |
| ikonia | RProgrammer_: for usb you should be fine with a bz compressed kernel | 02:51 |
| RProgrammer_ | But boot.img.gz has the partitioning and bootloader already set up | 02:51 |
| linux | How do I script conky to show bash cal command with date highlighted? | 02:52 |
| fryguy | linux: #conky | 02:52 |
| RProgrammer_ | I'm told you can just dd it onto, say, /dev/sdb and you're good to go | 02:52 |
| FUbbyCD | hey is there a off topic ubuntu chat that actually has people in it | 02:52 |

| fryguy | linux: yes, the channel | 02:52 |
| FUbbyCD | or better yet a room for ubuntu studio or music related | 02:52 |

| craigbass1976 | On a laptop that arrived yesterday, I keep getting "exiting on signal 15." It just keeps shutting down. Looking at previous lines in messages, each time lately was preceed by something different. Any ideas? Inspiron 5100 with hardy. | 02:53 |
| fryguy | craigbass1976: overheating? | 02:54 |
| JohnnyVbox | atleast you get signal 15... i am getting 11! | 02:54 |
| JohnnyVbox | lol | 02:54 |
| craigbass1976 | fryguy, not sure. What do I use? lmsensors, is that right? | 02:54 |
| fryguy | craigbass1976: that's an option, yes | 02:54 |
| Er1K | Pici, fryguy: neither of those worked off the bat, both got more interesting when I tried them with -r, but thanks to you guys, I did end up making it work. >>> sed -r -s "s/ +/\t/g" | 02:55 |

| JohnnyVbox | fryguy it seems like this sig11 is bullcrap | 03:00 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: it's not | 03:00 |
| JohnnyVbox | there is no error or anything | 03:00 |
| JohnnyVbox | just a cold signal 11 | 03:00 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: so like i said a while ago, use strace and trace through the code and find what's causing it | 03:00 |
| JohnnyVbox | how to | 03:01 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: or try manually debugging by eliminating possible causes | 03:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | JohnnyVbox, think of a sig11 kinda like a BSOD in Windows (although that would really be a Kernel Panic) but you get the idea | 03:01 |
| fryguy | use strace to run whatever command you want to run from a terminal, and read the code as it scrolls by and debug the problem | 03:01 |
| JohnnyVbox | not cpu, it inited ok | 03:01 |
| JohnnyVbox | not gpu, glxgears is ok | 03:01 |
| JohnnyVbox | not sound, no errors about sound. | 03:01 |
| JohnnyVbox | not any file missing... | 03:01 |
| ne0 | i need the mint linux 7 theme | 03:02 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: none of those things are conclusive enough to eliminate that as a cause | 03:02 |
| tom__ | hi i just installed wine 1.1.22 and get this error any one know why? wine cmd.exe /c echo '%Program Files%' returned empty string | 03:02 |

| |COM|Styx | hello | 03:03 |
| Er1K | skrite: any wm that supports "--replace"/"-replace" will work...most modern ones do | 03:03 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: have you checked any of the forum posts about this yet? There's 20,000+ results on google about signal 11 with your program | 03:03 |
| |COM|Styx | anyone here maintain the xfce4 package? | 03:04 |
| skrite | fryguy: will it work with just the --replace method? | 03:04 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: noone of them is my case | 03:04 |
| skrite | i mean, ideally, i would like to be able to switch in and out without a logout | 03:04 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: checked em' already | 03:04 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: none of the 20,000? | 03:04 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: really? | 03:04 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: yeah, all of them are about opengl issues | 03:04 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: some about files or sound | 03:04 |
| |COM|Styx | anyone at all? | 03:05 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: noone of them have a ghost error | 03:05 |
| Er1K | skrite: yes, but you need wmctrl to make things "as you expect them", e.g. things may not be tiled when you switch to the tiled window manager | 03:05 |
| Er1K | s/need/may need/ | 03:05 |
| JohnnyVbox | anyways, check pastebin.com/m764b819d | 03:05 |
| JohnnyVbox | thats what strace gives me | 03:05 |
| Th3D4rkn3ss | sup guys? | 03:05 |
| skrite | Er1K: wmctrl is a .deb? or something specific to xmonad? | 03:05 |
| rocky | motd | 03:06 |
| rocky | oops | 03:06 |
| Er1K | skrite: it's just a little proggy to let you manipulate window positions and related from the shell or a script | 03:06 |
| skrite | Er1K: s/need/may need/ -- funny, a vim joke | 03:06 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: i'm sure it gave you a lot more than that | 03:06 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: ern i didnt see anything more | 03:06 |
| skrite | Er1K: will check it out thanks | 03:06 |
| azzytee | Hi folks.. quick question here. I | 03:06 |
| nightdrever | is there a wine resptory ..... so installing wine products easier? | 03:06 |
| fryguy | skrite: actually it's a regex joke, and has little/nothing to do with vim directly | 03:07 |
| JohnnyVbox | yeah i see it | 03:07 |
| RProgrammer | sys | 03:07 |
| ramsey | how can I increase the size of my swap space in ubuntu? | 03:07 |
| Er1K | I've always considered it a sed joke, but that's just me :) | 03:07 |
| JohnnyVbox | but like... on the time the error happend, that is all | 03:07 |
| |COM|Styx | do we have anyone who maintains the xfce4 package? | 03:07 |
| skrite | fryguy: ok, vim i am familliar with, not regex | 03:07 |
| fryguy | ramsey: use gparted and make it bigger | 03:07 |
| Th3D4rkn3ss | delete ur current partition? and redue it | 03:07 |
| azzytee | Hi folks.. quick question here. I'm running UNR and my kids did something to make the one gnome panel disappear... how can I get it back? | 03:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | nightdrever, there is a wine repository, but what "products" do you mean? windows software? | 03:07 |
| kitche | nightdrever: go to the winehq site your question is anwsered there | 03:07 |
| Er1K | ramsey: either create a new swap partition, resize your existing one with gparted, or use swap files (slower but easier) | 03:08 |
| nightdrever | yeah | 03:08 |
| Th3D4rkn3ss | azzytee what? | 03:08 |
| fryguy | azzytee: right click on the other panel and make a new one | 03:08 |
| ramsey | fryguy, Er1K: thanks! I'll try gparted | 03:08 |
| nightdrever | like free windows software | 03:08 |
| azzytee | I don't have any panels, just the netbook-launcher | 03:08 |
| fryguy | !reset-panels | 03:09 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about reset-panels | 03:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | nightdrever, i think the closest thing would be http://appdb.winehq.org/appbrowse.php | 03:09 |
| fryguy | !panels | 03:09 |
| ubottu | To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 03:09 |
| azzytee | Thanks, I'll try | 03:09 |
| Er1K | speaking of netbook launcher.......can that be configured to NOT use opengl? | 03:09 |
| fryguy | Er1K: what do you want to use instead? | 03:10 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: here is what i get pastebin.com/m2eec2523 | 03:10 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: so it's unable to go to fullscreen mode | 03:11 |
| axisys | am I hitting a bug with that prepended domain name server keep disappearing from /etc/resolv.conf ? | 03:11 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: i get same problem with +set r_fullscreen 0 | 03:11 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: wich sets my game to windowed mod | 03:12 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: mode | 03:12 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: you get the exact same strace output? | 03:12 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: i get same stuff always i guess | 03:12 |
| fryguy | axisys: you are using dhcp? | 03:12 |
| munch13 | I don't mean to be a bum, but anyone here running a sendmail server--and willing to give away a free account? | 03:12 |
| darlek | !info strace | 03:12 |

| fryguy | axisys: read the manpage for dhclient.conf and configure it to not override your changes when it renews your lease | 03:13 |
| ramsey | fryguy: who do you resize a partition in gparted if all your partitions are mounted and you can't unmount them? | 03:13 |
| fryguy | ramsey: boot from another operating system (maybe a livecd, maybe the gparted livecd?) | 03:13 |
| axisys | fryguy: yes I am using dhcp .. | 03:14 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: any idea?: | 03:14 |
| azzytee | ok, that didnt seem to do anything. When I run gnome-panel in the terminal the panel appears, but that only lasts until I kill it from the terminal | 03:14 |
| ramsey | fryguy: gotcha | 03:14 |
| Th3D4rkn3ss | anybody heard of bluesky | 03:14 |
| axisys | fryguy: prepend in the dhcpclient.conf should stick | 03:14 |
| fryguy | JohnnyVbox: if you are getting the same output, then it isn't trying to run in windowed mode | 03:14 |
| Th3D4rkn3ss | blue sky ac? | 03:14 |
| JohnnyVbox | [fryguy]: yeah, i aint doint it now... i am running fullscreen | 03:14 |
| axisys | fryguy: reading dhclient.conf man | 03:14 |
| darlek | munch13: why not just use google? | 03:15 |

| Er1K | fryguy: Just straight xlib calls without any fancy effects, I have a netboot environment sharing one nice master image in place, mix of video cards etc makes opengl stuff unstable/impossible without a lot more work, and netbook-launcher looks PERFECT for my children's (one of whom is mentally handicapped) desktop environment.

| bastidrazor | azzytee; i think adding a & after the command eg. gnome-panel & will allow it to run after the terminal is closed | 03:16 |
| fryguy | Er1K: so stop running compiz | 03:16 |
| fryguy | Xarver: overheating? | 03:16 |
| Xarver | fryguy: It automatically shuts down 'cause of that? If that's true, I'm not sure if my comp is too hot | 03:17 |
| Er1K | fryguy: They aren't running compiz. Last time I tried it (couple months ago), netbook-launcher would segfault if you did not have functional opengl | 03:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | bastid_raZor, azzytee - actually i don't think the & at the end is gonna help - when you close the terminal it will still die - screen perhaps | 03:17 |

| fryguy | ZykoticK9: ? | 03:18 |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: most programs know how to detach from a terminal | 03:18 |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: and screen won't help you | 03:18 |
| fryguy | ZykoticK9: xpra would be the solution, or just run from a non-shell | 03:18 |
| bastidrazor | ZykoticK9; adding & will allow it to continue running with out the terminal | 03:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | bastid_raZor, you are right | 03:18 |

| mib_pv8ej8hm | Can someone please help me? I can no longer access the internet in Ubuntu 9.04. It worked fine previously in Ubuntu 9.04. I am connecting wirelessly with a PCMCIA card. I can connect to my network but when I open firefox I get "server not found." I have tried more than one card but still have had no luck. I am duel booting with Windows XP and the card works | 03:28 |

| darlek | !wifi | 03:34 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 03:34 |
| harpreet_ | mib_pv8ej8hm: you can either use ndiswapper or madwifi to load windows drivers, you will have to find xp driver that works for the card and extract .inf file from it and load through madwifi or ndiswapper | 03:34 |
| raden | anyone have ubuntu installed on a raid 1 system i try to install bios has drives as raid 1 but ubuntu sees both drives as install options any ideas ? | 03:34 |
| mib_pv8ej8hm | harpreet_ I am using a laptop. Also, I recently installed a firewall then I had this problem. However, I removed the firewall, but I am still having problems. | 03:35 |
| swiftarrow | craigbass1976, I had to resize a partition, and my friend wanted to use Vista's partitioner. It ended up creating a nice chunk of free space that nothing, not even it, could access! Manually editing the partition tables was the only way out. but that was a while ago. | 03:35 |
| craigbass1976 | swiftarrow, nice... | 03:35 |
| intx | what can I use to benchmark my disk based on cluster sizes so I can find out what's the optimal cluster size for my SSD? | 03:35 |

| harpreet_ | mib_pv8ej8hm: you can either use ndiswapper or madwifi to load windows drivers, you will have to find xp driver that works for the card and extract .inf file from it and load through madwifi or ndiswapper | 03:35 |
| mib_pv8ej8hm | harpeet_ Do need to use ndiswapper or madwifi my card worked fine earlier with any one of those programs? | 03:36 |
| harpreet_ | mib_pv8ej8hm: firewall has nothing to do with it, its the driver or updates that you did after | 03:36 |
| darlek | madwifi I bet works. visit their site and docs | 03:37 |

| Er1K | fryguy: netbook-launcher most definitely uses opengl rendering (I think libclutter does, actually). It links against libGL.so.1 and libGLcore.so.1 (ldd `which netbook-launcher`) and strace shows 725 calls to *gl* functions during a typical startup of it. | 03:54 |

| rdw200169 | jdsandeson, mostly, you're going to do a bunch of Config.WTF modifications. The most common problems involve screen resolution and GL versus DirectX which can both be fixed in Config.wtf and using the command line switches, i.e. Wow.exe -opengl | 04:04 |

| rdw200169 | jdsandeson, i think so, but i'm not sure | 04:07 |
| Er1K | fryguy: it's a shared netboot image, some of the clients use the nvidia binary drivers out of necessity (tv-out, multihead, etc.), and the nvidia stuff overwrites some of the gl libs....and won't work with the standard ones, nor will other machines work with the nvidia molested ones. I could do stuff around that avenue, but I need an absolute failsafe fallback | 04:07 |
| rdw200169 | jdsandeson, keep in mind you may be waiting a really long time for updates... | 04:07 |

| Jordan_U | Eric_K: Do you know all of the hardware configurations that will be used with this image, you might try nouveau if it's stable on all of the nvidia machines, they won't get 3D but intel and ATI users still will since nouveau won't break other drivers | 04:16 |
| FUbbyCD | so yeah | 04:16 |
| ed_debian | FUbbyCD, FloodBot3 is a program. He just responds when you trigger him (you hit enter too quickly in a row) | 04:17 |
| FUbbyCD | oh | 04:17 |
| eseven73 | after 3 lines FloodBot1,2,3 comes out of his cave and slaughters anything it finds, gotta watch out for them :D | 04:17 |
| tgr | which is faster awesome or lxde? | 04:17 |
| FUbbyCD | haha | 04:17 |
| FUbbyCD | guess i got lucky | 04:17 |
| ed_debian | FUbbyCD, Yes lol | 04:17 |
| jrib | tgr: try both and use what you like | 04:17 |
| chris__ | Hi How do you reset the "The Panel" back to default. Intrepid Gnome desktop ? ? | 04:17 |
| ed_debian | FUbbyCD, Do you need JACK? Just use something else | 04:17 |
| FUbbyCD | is there a problem with jack | 04:17 |
| FUbbyCD | uhh im wanting to use ardour | 04:17 |
| ed_debian | (in other words) I don't know how to fix it | 04:18 |
| FUbbyCD | and it complains about jack | 04:18 |
| jrib | !resetpanel | chris__ | 04:18 |
| ubottu | chris__: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 04:18 |
| FUbbyCD | i dont even know who jack is or care about it but it and rosegarden need it i think | 04:18 |
| darlek | !info jack | 04:18 |

| ed_debian | ok then, yeah use jack, I don't know how to fix it though sorry :( | 04:18 |
| Serpardum | whats the opposite of mount? dismount and unmount didnt' work | 04:18 |
| darlek | umount | 04:18 |
| darlek | no n | 04:18 |
| Serpardum | hmm.. kay | 04:18 |
| FUbbyCD | sorry but i know you guys probably agree. audio creation as in DAW's are as of now not usable in linux | 04:19 |
| Jordan_U | Eric_K: ( sorry if this is a repeat, I'm having odd network issues ) Do you know all of the hardware configurations that will be used with this image? you might try nouveau if it's stable on all of the nvidia machines, they won't get 3D but intel and ATI users still will since nouveau won't break other drivers | 04:19 |
| jrib | Serpardum: umount obviously | 04:19 |
| ed_debian | FUbbyCD, Jack does way more than rip / encode cd's. It is a sound server. It is the program that other programs use to access the sound card | 04:19 |
| sharperguy2 | Anyone else have an issue where myspace and bbc iplayer cause firefox and epiphany to crash? | 04:19 |
| FUbbyCD | thanks guess its on to google | 04:19 |
| FUbbyCD | oh yeah | 04:19 |
| FUbbyCD | logging out same as rebooting | 04:19 |
| hoohaah | is it worth trying to setup wine for office apps, or should i just do a kvm install of xp and install office there? | 04:20 |
| FUbbyCD | for permissions and all that stuff that installed programs change | 04:20 |
| ed_debian | hoohaah, Do you know what open office is? | 04:20 |
| FUbbyCD | so what im saying is .. shutting down vs rebooting | 04:20 |
| lstarnes | ed_debian: openoffice is an office suite | 04:20 |
| hoohaah | ed_debian: yeah, it's that alternative to office that feels sluggish on my system :) | 04:20 |
| === Martineo_ is now known as Martineo | ||
| FUbbyCD | arrrgghh i mean shutting down vs logging out .. any difference in permission changes that the programs need | 04:20 |
| darlek | hoohaah: abiword and openoffice on both I'd recommend. | 04:20 |
| Serpardum | "office apps"? Why not just run staroffice? | 04:20 |
| Serpardum | staroffice = openoffice | 04:21 |
| hoohaah | plus, I have several statistics packages that can only work on excel | 04:21 |
| WebcamWonder | ed_debian: And is no where near compatible with Microsoft Office Documents | 04:21 |
| ed_debian | hoohaah, Well MS office in wine will be a pain in the butt I'ms ure | 04:21 |
| ed_debian | IDK if it's worth it | 04:21 |
| ed_debian | WebcamWonder, ?? | 04:21 |
| ed_debian | I use it to work on docx all the time? | 04:21 |
| eseven73 | office 2007 works in wine | 04:21 |
| hoohaah | eseven73: really? | 04:22 |
| WebcamWonder | ed_debian: OpenOffice is horrid in its compatibility with doc and docx, especially when it comes to formatting | 04:22 |
| RedSocrates | Same here, ed_debian | 04:22 |
| hoohaah | can you provide a link to a howto? | 04:22 |
| JabberWalkie | or you can use OO | 04:22 |
| RedSocrates | No problems with OpenOffice on docs or docx | 04:22 |
| eseven73 | hoofman, yep, I think it's on wine's database site | 04:22 |
| Gareth_ | Hey, I was wondering, I want to boot up into my Live Disk for some partition management, but I'm in the middle of watching some videos. Can I watch MKV's in Ubuntu Live? | 04:22 |
| hoohaah | noice | 04:22 |
| ed_debian | WebcamWonder, I have never seen any problems but I have heard some of the more complex features aren't supported like some excel macros and other things | 04:22 |
| Er1K | Jordan_U: I already have x-configs per machine, nouveau doesn't do tv out, so simply not an option, and simply disabling dri doesn't do it, as the nvidia thing replaces an xlib and then glx won't load on anything else. think I found a not difficult answer, though | 04:23 |
| === Gareth_ is now known as Garethp | ||
| eseven73 | seen it last night when I was looking for CS4 + Wine, which somewhat works, but requires a lot of hacks, .dll's etc | 04:23 |
| ed_debian | WebcamWonder, From day to day use I think open office is a perfectly good substitute for MS office and I think it is compatiable enough | 04:23 |
| ed_debian | with doc / docx | 04:23 |
| donald_ | Hey, I installed the latest Ubuntu 9.04, and everything works fine but the audio. According to the sound mixer I have an Intel HDA ALC888 and a ATI HDMI... neither work for audio. In WinXP, I have to download Realtek drivers because its a realtek HD audio device... please help? | 04:23 |
| poseidon | What is a good cd ripper? | 04:24 |
| hoohaah | eseven73: gah, seems I need crossover games | 04:24 |
| fryguy | donald_: you'll need to google for details, but you want to disable the ati hdmi audio | 04:24 |
| Er1K | make the Xorg modules in question (I *think* just one) part of the temporary-copy-on-write list, and just symlink the write module before x starts....not hard, should work with no more than one tweak per x server.....gonna give it a try | 04:24 |
| hoohaah | I don't want to spend any more money than I already have for an office app | 04:24 |
| WebcamWonder | ed_debian: Over the past 2 months, all the files I have sent to my peers have rendered with tables being placed 20% from the left and at widths > 100%, the bold and underline formatting is not kept, and I mostly have whitespace where real things should exist in the doc.... so I'd take office 200[0-9] in WINE over Openoffice anyday.... Anyways, that is my personal opinion and experience | 04:24 |
| onexused | poseidon: Audio cds? I like sound-juicer. | 04:24 |
| hoohaah | 2007 at student discount is still fairly expensive | 04:24 |
| donald_ | How can I disable ATI HDMI? | 04:24 |
| fryguy | donald_: like i said you'll need to google for details | 04:24 |
| fryguy | donald_: i don't have the machine that i did it with in front of me | 04:24 |
| darlek | poseidon: run synaptic, it can show you quite a lot of available cd ripper programs. Sound-juicer might already be installed | 04:25 |

| ZykoticK9 | poseidon, grip is a not bad gui cdripper, abcde is a cli program that is very powerful | 04:26 |

| chaorain | With blender fullscreen when I do a render the render window is always behind the main window. is there a way to change this? (BTW I'm using compiz at the same time and it still works great) | 04:26 |
| hoohaah | fryguy: ati wouldn't make the realtek card 'not work' | 04:26 |
| fryguy | hoohaah: you can, by changing alsa configuration, or you can just disable the ATI driver. like i said, he needs to google for details | 04:26 |
| hoohaah | it's simply ordered first | 04:26 |
| fryguy | hoohaah: it does | 04:26 |
| darlek | there's like a dozen cd rippers, maybe more, and they all work haha | 04:27 |

I'm putting together a dvd image for myself that has a bunch of documentation and reference material that I'd like to carry around with me. I'd like to have the ability to do full text search on the contents of the image quickly. Is there something - an app or just an index format or something that I could include on t | 04:28 |
| fryguy | hoohaah: only happens on machines that have an ATI HDMI audio driver (not all ATI cards expose this, the machine I'm currently on does not) | 04:28 |

| jamiejackson | speaking of problems with sound, i have MB with onboard sound: Realtek ALC650 http://hardware4linux.info/module/VIA_82xx_Audio/ says i need VIA_82xx_Audio module. is that right? if so, how do i get that. if not, what am i supposed to do to enable this audio card? | 04:50 |
| dan | hello | 04:51 |
| fryguy | donald_: ignore that, you need to fix the underlying problem before that dialog means anything | 04:51 |
| dan | I need technical help | 04:51 |
| hoohaah | donald_: sorry, I don't use Gnome nor KDE on my system | 04:51 |
| artistxe | jamiejackson, you are getting no sound at all ? | 04:51 |
| donald_ | in fact, its telling me this error when i try hda intel alc888 analog & digital (ALSA): audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open audio device for playback. | 04:51 |
| hoohaah | donald_: who knows what voodoo those DEs employ to get sound | 04:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | jamiejackson, you could basically follow along with the suggestions being given to donald_ | 04:51 |
| dan | I'm getting no sound | 04:51 |
| iam1721292934 | dan do you have pulseaudio installed | 04:52 |
| donald_ | It says "Could not open audio device for playback." | 04:52 |
| dan | <--- epc1000he ununtu netbook remix | 04:52 |
| rockman | 大家好 | 04:52 |
| rockman | 没人？ | 04:52 |
| jamiejackson | okay, ZykoticK9. no sound, artistxe (actually screechy low noise). don't think the card was detected. | 04:52 |
| dan | idk pulse audio | 04:52 |
| hoohaah | fryguy: good luck. If it's anything to do with a sound daemon on top of alsa, I haven't the foggiest | 04:52 |

| dan | 1 sec | 04:53 |
| donald_ | fryguy: i am brand new to ubuntu and linux altogether. i do not know how to disable ati hdmi and i do not know what to search for on google. | 04:53 |
| artistxe | jamiejackson, just realized I have pulseaudio installed here. realtek also . that may be your solution ( although I do not remember choosing that package ) | 04:54 |
| iam1721292934 | dan: if it says ... un pulseaudio .... then you don't, ... ii pulseaudio .... then you do | 04:54 |
| artistxe | video ... ATI ... vesa drivers. anyone ? | 04:54 |
| jamiejackson | artistxe: what's that package name, do you know? | 04:54 |

| burvowski | Hi, is it possible/easy to have more than one Ubuntu liveCD on a single usb flash drive? I have a 4 gig drive. Could I, say, put Ubuntu 9.04 on half of it, and Crunchbang on the other half? Would I be able to boot of one or the other at will? | 04:59 |
| oDuda | hello all ! i need to setup a dialup at ubuntu 9.04 somebody ? | 04:59 |
| rdw200169 | jamiejackson, have you checked you sound preferences, and tried ALSA? if ALSA works, you problem is something other than the sound card. This is because Pulseaudio uses alsa for the hardware layer | 04:59 |
| jamiejackson | yeah, you can do multi-distro usb sticks, burvowski | 04:59 |
| burvowski | jamiejackson do i just create two different partitions on the flash and that's that? | 05:00 |
| === bgupta|away is now known as bgupta | ||
| jamiejackson | burvowski: i don't remember exactly, but that's part of the gist | 05:00 |
| dan | what is ALSA? | 05:00 |
| burvowski | cool i'll give it a shot | 05:00 |
| === nicolas_ is now known as Guest42407 | ||
| rdw200169 | dan, advance linux sound architecture. its the link between the sound card, and the software | 05:00 |
| jamiejackson | there are howtos out there for multidistro usb sticks, afaik, burvowski | 05:00 |
| mikeh789 | I'm having clipboard issues with vnc, what do you guys do?? | 05:01 |
| rdw200169 | dan, there used to be OSS, but we don't use that anymore in ubuntu | 05:01 |
| jamiejackson | rdw200169: i've tried all the architectures, i think my card was never detected tho | 05:01 |
| dan | thanks rdw | 05:01 |
| jamiejackson | mikeh789: try the older rdp version (4?) | 05:01 |
| mikeh789 | jamiejackson, will do | 05:02 |
| artistxe | burvowski http://people.ofset.org/~ckhung/p/mk-boot-usb/index.php | 05:02 |
| jamiejackson | i know that tsclient had a mixup where you'd select rdp and it'd actually do v4, but picking rdp4 would actually do 5, mikeh789 | 05:02 |
| jamiejackson | and the clipboard works better with one than the other | 05:02 |
| Caleb101 | Hi people | 05:02 |
| intx | how do I measure cluster speed in linux? (e.g. 1k 2k 4k 8k 16k 32k) | 05:02 |
| Caleb101 | I need some help | 05:02 |
| marcelo__ | hoooooooolaaaaaaaaa | 05:02 |
| oDuda | hello all ! i need to setup a dialup at ubuntu 9.04 somebody ? | 05:03 |
| rdw200169 | jamiejackson, do you get anything when you type 'asoundconf list'? | 05:03 |
| jamiejackson | oh, sorry mikeh789, i read rdp instead of vnc, so my advice will steer you astray. don't remember if my clipboard works with the tsclient vnc or not | 05:03 |
| Caleb101 | Is there a tool to put an ubuntu distro onto my USB? | 05:03 |
| iam1721292934 | Caleb101: yep | 05:03 |
| jamiejackson | nothing with that command, rdw200169 | 05:03 |
| mikeh789 | jamiejackson, I'm just trying to copy remote to local | 05:04 |
| bwild | jamiejackson: vnc uses the rdp protocol | 05:04 |
| rdw200169 | jamiejackson, yeah, thats a bad sign :( | 05:04 |
| dan | It says Intel | 05:04 |
| Caleb101 | iam1721292934:What is it? | 05:04 |
| mikeh789 | and its in the f8 menu, ut it doen't work | 05:04 |
| dan | asoundconf list = Intel | 05:04 |
| jamiejackson | i can throw a card in here, but i'd rather not. what's it mean when it won't even detect, rdw200169? | 05:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | Caleb101, on 9.04 System / Administration / USB Startup Disk Creater | 05:04 |
| rdw200169 | dan, are you also having sound problems? | 05:04 |
| Caleb101 | Im 8.10? | 05:05 |
| pw-toxic | hi - can someone help me with installing the java servlet library for eclipse? | 05:05 |
| pw-toxic | i just dont know what to do.. | 05:05 |
| dan | yes! sound prbs here | 05:05 |
| rdw200169 | jamiejackson, chances are the kernel is having problems detecting your sound card. from here, you're going to have to dig pretty deep. there may be a little help in /var/log/syslog | 05:05 |
| dan | no sounds at all | 05:05 |
| Gain | any good dock/widget applications? | 05:05 |
| telaviv | hello i'm having a problem with opengl. This bug report states that i can use the old Hardy Heron version of opengl. How would i find that? | 05:05 |
| rdw200169 | jamiejackson, do you know anything about your card? model/manufacturer etc...? | 05:05 |
| pw-toxic | i have installed the libservlet2.5-java but within eclipse the HttpServlet cant be found... | 05:05 |
| jamiejackson | pw-toxic: maybe you'll have more luck in #eclipse? | 05:06 |
| telaviv | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/318043 | 05:06 |
| pw-toxic | jamiejackson, well they can tell me how to do it in windows ;) | 05:06 |
| rdw200169 | dan, first thing you do, before anything else, is make sure the levels are up. double click on the sound volume icon in your taskbar thing, this pulls up the volume control window | 05:06 |
| jamiejackson | oh well, i've gotten good ubuntu support for eclipse there. bad time of day i guess | 05:06 |
| dan | I haven't jioned launchpad | 05:06 |
| dan | ok, volume 100% | 05:07 |
| rdw200169 | dan, whoops, i forgot they changed that in 9.04. right click and select volume control | 05:07 |
| bwild | Caleb101: um maybe syslinux -sf /dev/sdx1 | 05:07 |
| jamiejackson | rdw200169: the mb supposedly has Realtek ALC650 aboard | 05:07 |
| pw-toxic | jamiejackson, maybe i should just take my pc and throw it out of the windows ;) | 05:07 |
| WIGGMPk | Anyone have any luck with installing gfxboot on a ext4 /boot partition in Jaunty? | 05:07 |
| Caleb101 | ZykoticK9: But i want my usb to be a portable ubuntu, not a live cd. I want to be able to save my settings, without having to reconfigure whenever i reboot | 05:07 |
| dan | ok | 05:07 |
| rdw200169 | dan, now, click preferences, and make sure *all* the options are checked | 05:07 |
| rdw200169 | jamiejackson, step one is to google that with 'ubuntu' and see what comes up | 05:07 |
| telaviv | does anyone know how to get the hardy heron version of libGL.so.1.2 ? | 05:08 |
| rdw200169 | dan, its possible that something as simple as a hidden volume control is all the way down. for some reason, this is a very common problem | 05:08 |
| bwild | rdw200169: like this? http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-x-ubuntu-610/ | 05:08 |
| dan | ALC269 | 05:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | can someone throw up the !whatever for Caleb101 on persistant USB? | 05:08 |
| Caleb101 | !whatever Caleb101 | 05:08 |
| rdw200169 | bwild, i think you got the wrong one ;) | 05:08 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:08 |

| axisys | i went back to ff 3.0.10 and youtube now has sound | 05:09 |
| jamiejackson | oh, one thing that slipped my mind, but shouldn't have, rdw200169 i did find a driver online for the thing, but i think i was looking for something native. i'll just go that route, then. i'm multitasking and temporarily forgot about that avenue | 05:09 |
| rdw200169 | jamiejackson, if that doesn't come up with anything useful, try googling the model of the motherboard. | 05:09 |
| greato | Hello! I want to download complete ubuntu for my 32-bit computer | 05:09 |
| iam1721292934 | no it only comes in 8bit | 05:09 |
| fryguy | greato: www.ubuntu.com | 05:10 |
| greato | I already opened it | 05:10 |
| mezquitale | is there a channel for networking??? | 05:10 |
| rdw200169 | jamiejackson, one of the good things about ubuntu, is that its likely someone else already had and solved your problem ;) | 05:10 |
| onexused | greato: Hello! ubuntu.com | 05:10 |
| jamiejackson | pw-toxic: what are you trying to do to eclipse again? | 05:10 |
| fryguy | greato: installation media is available for download there | 05:10 |
| iam1721292934 | Caleb101: try apt-cache search usb | grep install | 05:10 |
| rdw200169 | dan, any luck? | 05:10 |
| Jordan_U_ | Caleb101: How large is your drive? | 05:10 |
| FOXDIE_ | greato: You will need to grab the 32bit iso of Jaunty | 05:10 |
| Caleb101 | 4gb | 05:10 |
| rdw200169 | mezquitale, I can help you | 05:10 |
| Caleb101 | Toshiba | 05:10 |
| dan | Why does it show 5 mixers? that'a crazy, I only have one sound output device | 05:10 |
| pw-toxic | jamiejackson, i think it's not an eclipse problem anyway.. i just want to be able to import any javax.servlet.* library | 05:10 |
| rdw200169 | dan, just focus on, likely, the Front, PCM, and Master volume meters | 05:11 |
| mezquitale | rdw200169, what use would it be to log in to someone else's router and place a static route in the router settings??? | 05:11 |
| pw-toxic | and i thought installing libservlet2.5-java from the package manager should do this.. but it doesnt help | 05:11 |
| pedrinhobrito | heu im drunk. doens any oen kneo any commando that wll make me get no hangonver tomorro? | 05:11 |
| jamiejackson | pw-toxic: so do you have the jars downloaded? | 05:11 |
| rdw200169 | dan, i'm assuming that you're plugged into the Front jack | 05:11 |
| dan | ok | 05:11 |
| pw-toxic | jamiejackson, what jars?! | 05:11 |
| fryguy | pedrinhobrito: water | 05:11 |
| rdw200169 | mezquitale, static routes are somewhat useful, but usually unnecessary | 05:11 |
| bwild | rdw200169: kk; how about? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTRXerYTDbo | 05:11 |
| greato | hello! anyone here have ubuntu latest version so that I can download from their machine using torrent but privately | 05:11 |
| dan | it has built in speakers, good ones too | 05:11 |
| FOXDIE_ | greato: http://releases.ubuntu.com/hardy/ubuntu-8.04.2-desktop-i386.iso | 05:12 |
| rdw200169 | dan, generally, those are tied to the Front | 05:12 |
| git__ | i'm coming to recognize Real Player is the only true player in Linux | 05:12 |
| jamiejackson | actually, pw-toxic, those are just part of eclipse, right (assuming you do the j2ee installation of it)? | 05:12 |
| fryguy | git__: lol | 05:12 |
| mezquitale | rdw200169, ok well for what purpose you would put a static route in a router? | 05:12 |
| greato | Foxdie is it latest version | 05:12 |
| FOXDIE_ | greato: Yes | 05:12 |
| git__ | the rest is pretty mediocre | 05:12 |
| greato | ok i am on ubuntu website | 05:13 |
| fryguy | mezquitale: when you want to communicate with another router and you aren't sending routes to the other router via rip, ospf, or another routing protocol | 05:13 |
| greato | which country should I choose | 05:13 |
| pw-toxic | jamiejackson, yes i have the j2ee installation of it, but eclipse is just a set of tools to support the development.. java itself is not a part of eclipse | 05:13 |
| FOXDIE_ | greato: If you tell me what country your in I can give you a closer server! | 05:13 |
| pedrinhobrito | fryguy it says comando not ggound | 05:13 |
| mezquitale | git__, real player? LoL you need to try rhythmbox | 05:13 |
| jamiejackson | pw-toxic: are you using sun's java, or that gcj stuff? | 05:13 |
| rdw200169 | mezquitale, basically, static routing involves manually mangling the routing table, for linking up WAN networks. Nowadays, this is primarily taken care of by OSPF, ISIS, etc... because they are adaptive protocols. | 05:14 |
| * git__ checks out rhythmbox | 05:14 | |
| greato | hello! what is the total size of ubuntu | 05:14 |
| fryguy | greato: what do you mean by "total size?" | 05:14 |
| rdw200169 | mezquitale, if you need to route to *different* networks, use static routing. for example, if you need 192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24 to talk to each other. *then* you would use static routing. | 05:14 |
| usser | greato, install cd? | 05:14 |
| greato | no DVD | 05:14 |
| pw-toxic | jamiejackson, suns's | 05:14 |
| usser | greato, 4 gigs | 05:14 |
| greato | but the iso file is showing only 689 MB | 05:15 |
| fryguy | greato: installation media fits on a CD, so < 800mb, standard install is around 3 gb, a "total" install of EVERYTHING is hundreds of gigs | 05:15 |
| FOXDIE_ | greato: Can your PC boot from a USB | 05:15 |
| mezquitale | rdw200169, ok well some idiot keeps logging in to my router and placing a static route to some naval server | 05:15 |
| pw-toxic | jamiejackson, if i do javac ASDF.java he tells me the same problem: he cant find javax.servlet.* | 05:15 |
| Flannel | fryguy: not hundreds. Dozens. | 05:15 |
| === GhostWolf is now known as GW | ||

| thehoodinternet | i believe i am seeing the highest wifi speeds ever | 05:15 |
| greato | ok I am going to download ubuntu whose iso file size is 698 MB so is it DVD version or CD version | 05:16 |
| fryguy | Flannel: i'm pretty sure installing every package in base/universe/multiverse is going to be more than 200gb | 05:16 |
| fryguy | greato: cd | 05:16 |
| thehoodinternet | greato either or | 05:16 |
| rdw200169 | mezquitale, you put up with that? I think your problems are a little bigger than a simple static route ! | 05:16 |
| pedrinhobrito | fryguy it says comando not ggound | 05:16 |
| Ninja2k | hey I've got a quick question. I'm using an acer Aspire one netbook with 9.04 ubuntu one it. problem plenty of windows run off the bottom of the screen. In the past. I would just alt+click the window and move it up, it seems to be a stopping at the top bar now and won't go past it | 05:16 |
| Ninja2k | any ideas | 05:16 |
| raden | can someone tell me how diffrent gnome is i been using kde forever | 05:16 |
| GW76 | hi ppl i have a question, how do i find out if my X server is running? im trying to install a video card driver that i got from its site but when i try to install it it says that i have X Server running | 05:16 |
| fryguy | raden: try it and see | 05:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ninja2k, try disable compiz and see if you can drag it above (i bet you will) | 05:17 |
| fryguy | GW76: why are you using a driver from outside of ubuntu | 05:17 |
| Ninja2k | raden: more light weight | 05:17 |
| bart_ | guys i just happened to try the k environment on my ubuntu desktop and to be true it's fantastic i was kind of wondering why kubuntu is less popular than ubuntu | 05:17 |
| Ninja2k | okay let me try that | 05:17 |
| rdw200169 | GW76, ps -AF | grep X | 05:17 |
| dan | darn it, nothing yet | 05:17 |
| * raden sitting here installing distro dont know if i should go KDE or gnome | 05:17 | |
| Darn | ? | 05:17 |
| rdw200169 | dan, do you have it set to use PulseAudio or ALSA? | 05:17 |
| fryguy | bart_: because ubuntu came first and is more publicly marketted | 05:17 |
| unko | can someone help me with my installation? here's my output: http://pastie.org/494737 | 05:17 |
| onexused | raden: You can always install the other one later | 05:17 |
| Ninja2k | gnome if you want performances | 05:17 |
| GW76 | fryguy its not outside ubuntu its for linux and its the latest driver for my card since the one from ubuntu is not really the latest one | 05:17 |
| pedrinhobrito | raden, go xfce | 05:17 |
| usser | bart_, because kde is buggy and too windows like | 05:17 |
| fryguy | raden: it's easy enough to switch between them, so it doesn't really matter | 05:18 |
| mezquitale | rdw200169, it hasnt happened in the past week or so, I dont know how they are able to get in to my router, I changed the password and all, i was wondering why they would want to have a static route to a naval server??? i wasn't able to view google and other web pages with that static route in linksys router | 05:18 |
| dan | HDA Intel ALSA | 05:18 |
| WIGGMPk | raden: I would say Gnome because its sleek compared to KDE but KDE offers more functionality. | 05:18 |
| raden | fryguy, i can install both ? | 05:18 |
| fryguy | GW76: ubuntu provides drivers for you, integrated with the package management system, use those | 05:18 |
| fryguy | raden: yes | 05:18 |
| onexused | raden: Yes, as well as several others : ) | 05:18 |
| raden | WIGGMPk, more functionality how ? | 05:18 |
| Ninja2k | interesting. | 05:18 |
| greato | hello! I need full version of ubuntu | 05:18 |
| Ninja2k | it works | 05:18 |
| greato | I don't want LIVE CD of ubuntu | 05:18 |
| fryguy | greato: the livecd IS the full version | 05:18 |
| greato | I want complete ubuntu | 05:18 |
| greato | ok thx | 05:18 |
| WIGGMPk | raden: it just has more things readily available.. maybe functionality was a bad word.. | 05:18 |
| onexused | greato: You install the full version from the liveCD | 05:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ninja2k, it's a know bug with some versions of compiz - don't know the fix, sorry | 05:19 |
| rdw200169 | mezquitale, generally, static routes are used to link up two routers, without having NAT in the middle, in off-the-shelf brand routers | 05:19 |
| hoohaah | greato: installation packages are contained within cd, and can be obtained remotely | 05:19 |
| thehoodinternet | 1.2 MB/s - wifi - ktorrent - ubuntu 9.04 | 05:19 |
| bart_ | the live cd contains the complete ubuntu distro and installation means greato | 05:19 |
| raden | WIGGMPk, allows you to control more so to speak ? | 05:19 |
| GW76 | fryguy im trying to get the latest and i know it does but the version ubunut is giving me is not the latest.. | 05:19 |
| pw-toxic | jamiejackson, i have installed some jave_ee_SDK which is maybe the solution | 05:19 |
| Ninja2k | maybe I should try to put it back and enable modules one at a time and seeing which is being the problem | 05:19 |
| fryguy | GW76: why do you need the latest? | 05:19 |
| WIGGMPk | raden: I was proposed with the same complex once. The only satisfaction I found was to try both and make a decision on my own thoughts | 05:19 |
| mezquitale | bart_, i like ubuntu better because it's tons FASTER than KDE, i used to use kubuntu and resisted using gnome but for my gaming ubuntu helps a lot so i used gnome and never looked back | 05:20 |
| Ninja2k | anyways, at least that gets me running again! | 05:20 |
| pw-toxic | jamiejackson, it is installed in opt/SDK/ ... but i dont know how i could use it | 05:20 |
| fryguy | GW76: upgrading for no reason is asking for trouble, and using drivers outside the scope of ubuntu is just going to give you maintenance problems | 05:20 |
| raden | WIGGMPk, which one you use and are you a home or business user etc ? | 05:20 |
| Ninja2k | Thank you all! | 05:20 |
| GW76 | cause im trying to see if that will make me play runescape on hd which i am having problems playing it | 05:20 |
| WIGGMPk | raden: yes. Gnome allows you to control everything, but it might take more to get the control, where as KDE is just jammed packed with settings control | 05:20 |
| BeatlesFan | hi, can anybody sort of walk me through setting up access to a network drive via vpnc ? | 05:20 |
| mezquitale | rdw200169, thank you for the help, ever heard of back doors in routers?? | 05:20 |
| rdw200169 | mezquitale, for example, in a linksys wireless router, the static route is directly involved with the 'broadband' port; this would be used to have a second layer lan network behind the first connected to the internet via NAT. it allows all traffic to pass between the first and second without hiding the IP addresses behind NAT. The reason Linksys routers do this is so that you have the option. most people, though, in that situation ju | 05:21 |
| rdw200169 | st use the linksys router as a switch, and bypass having to set up a second network just to extend their services | 05:21 |
| WIGGMPk | raden: I use Gnome, I am both home and business.. Its sleek, simple, and well thought out. But again, I urge, almost beg you to try both and get a feel for each and make a decision based on how you like them.. | 05:21 |
| dan | would Pulse Audio be better? | 05:21 |
| fryguy | dan: no | 05:21 |
| rdw200169 | mezquitale, thus, DHCP, etc..., would piggyback through the second linksys wireless router-made-switch to the first | 05:21 |
| rdw200169 | dan, you're not getting anything from alsa? | 05:22 |
| bart_ | well but kubuntu can be great for a linux first timer i guess would certainly make him feel more at home | 05:22 |
| fryguy | rdw200169: that's a terrible example of static routes, and a terrible example of network topology | 05:22 |
| WIGGMPk | raden: the best thing I have learned about Linux and the display managers is choose.. You can ask everyone's opinion on a specific program, tool, broswer, or window manager, and everyone will like something else for some reason.. You should formulate the decision for yourself though | 05:22 |
| rdw200169 | dan, the trick here is, alsa *must* work or pulseaudio never will. pulseaudio runs *on top of* alsa | 05:22 |
| mezquitale | rdw200169, thanks again for all the info, now it's time to frag in UrT, im addicted to that thing! LoL | 05:22 |
| rdw200169 | fryguy, why don't you *. I gave a quick synopsis, and a lazy example. I'm not an RFC. more information, and better information can, and should, be found elsewhere. | 05:23 |
| BeatlesFan | anyone familiar with access to network drive via vpnc? | 05:24 |
| The_Mime | was ubuntu invented by umberto | 05:25 |
| hipitihop | can someone tell me how to setup remote mount(s) so that installed applications and corresponding packages do not use local hdd space ? | 05:25 |
| pedrinhobrito | fryguy, are you braisilia? | 05:25 |
| pedrinhobrito | brazilian | 05:25 |
| fryguy | hipitihop: just add the corresponding sshfs/nfs/samba mounts to /etc/fstab | 05:25 |
| fryguy | [pErry]: no | 05:25 |
| fryguy | pedrinhobrito: no | 05:25 |
| jamiejackson | pw-toxic: i think you need to install a j2ee app server maybe, like if you get glassfish, i think you'll be able to use that jar | 05:25 |
| marcelo__ | helo | 05:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | (it's after midnight EST so I can ask my once daily question again) does anyone have jscal working under 9.04? it works fine under 8.10 but seems to have no effect on 9.04 | 05:25 |
| pedrinhobrito | why not? | 05:26 |
| marcelo__ | hello | 05:26 |
| jakuphl | hello. I have installed ubuntu on an external hard disk, but I get grub error 17 on boot | 05:26 |
| jakuphl | any ideas? | 05:26 |
| fryguy | jakuphl: you didn't install grub to the right location (or you didn't install it where you think you did) | 05:26 |
| hipitihop | fryguy: but I don't know where the system normal stores stuff e.g. if I do an apt-get install, where does it all go ? | 05:26 |
| jakuphl | yes, I removed the internal hdd before I installed | 05:26 |
| fryguy | hipitihop: /usr/ | 05:26 |
| fryguy | hipitihop: and /var | 05:26 |
| lstarnes | hipitihop: check dpkg -L packagename | 05:27 |
| jakuphl | fryguy: so where should it otherwise go | 05:27 |
| === binarymutant_ is now known as binarymutant | ||
| fryguy | jakuphl: the other hard drive | 05:27 |
| jakuphl | fryguy: I removed the internal hdd before I installed | 05:27 |
| fryguy | jakuphl: so now grub thinks that your internal hard drive is your external hard drive | 05:27 |
| hipitihop | fryguy: so I would need to mount to remote shares to /var and /usr equivalent ? | 05:27 |
| fryguy | and it's looking there | 05:27 |
| fryguy | hipitihop: yep | 05:27 |
| rdw200169 | seems like every time i try to help someone in here some **ho*** finds himself compelled to be a grammar/semantics/concept/protocol/etc... nazi. get over yourselves, and go outside or something. | 05:27 |
| lstarnes | hipitihop: that might not be very safe though | 05:28 |
| lstarnes | rdw200169: this isn't the place for making comments about how the channel is operated | 05:28 |
| jakuphl | fryguy: but... my internal hard drive is laying on my table, and it has been here the whole time | 05:28 |
| fryguy | hipitihop: if you are going to go that far though, just use bootp and run diskless | 05:28 |
| Pafs321 | hi! i just updated my system, and with the new kernel (2.6.28-12), my webcam (microsoft VX-1000), i reinstalled the v4l driver, and it finds the webcam only problem is that the image is green, when i logged on the 2.6.28-11 version of the kernel it worked great.. anyone has an idea of what's going on? | 05:28 |
| dan | it's not working | 05:29 |
| rdw200169 | lstarnes, thats fine. i find myself coming here quite rarely anyway. | 05:29 |
| hipitihop | lstarnes: thanks at least cans ee where things go now. | 05:29 |
| fryguy | jakuphl: then ubuntu messed up installing grub, just reinstall it, follow one of the many guides available on the internet, in ubuntu forums, or on the ubuntu wiki | 05:29 |
| jakuphl | fryguy: thanks.. I will do some more digging. | 05:29 |
| lstarnes | hipitihop: you may also want to check the man page for the filesystem heirarchy (see "man hier") | 05:29 |
| hipitihop | fryguy: I currently have 9.04 fully installed on usb flash stick but only have about 1.1gb free so don't want user to go off and install stuff and quickly fill it up | 05:30 |
| dan | nada from alsa | 05:30 |
| selammm | . | 05:30 |
| dan | i didn't do it | 05:30 |
| hipitihop | lstarnes: thanks | 05:30 |
| dan | I'm using 9.04 and the audio doesn't work | 05:31 |
| JNSamuel | upgrade to hardy. | 05:31 |
| === eric__ is now known as Apollo2366 | ||
| fryguy | JNSamuel: hardy is older than what he's using | 05:31 |
| hipitihop | fryguy: are you suggesting I'd be better off with bootp for such a setup, links ? | 05:31 |
| pedrinhobrito | fryguy, do you know how i can make an exponencial regression fitting from a data table in grace or gnuplot? | 05:32 |
| JNSamuel | exactly, somewhat more stable :) | 05:32 |
| spool32 | I need some assistance setting up a DLink WDA-1320 wireless-G nic on Ubuntu 8.0.4. | 05:32 |

| jared | anyone mind helping me with a sound problem on ubuntu 9.04? | 05:32 |
| spool32 | Anyone? | 05:32 |
| fryguy | pedrinhobrito: nope, no idea why you'd ask me | 05:32 |

| fryguy | pedrinhobrito: i'm not solving any problems, i don't know anything, i just copy/paste people's questions into google and copy/paste the first result usually | 05:33 |
| pedrinhobrito | fryguy, really? | 05:33 |

| ziroday | spool32: okay you have an Atheros AR2413, what version of ubuntu? | 05:45 |
| spool32 | ziroday: 8.0.4 I believe... it's an 8.x distribution for sur. | 05:45 |
| spool32 | *sure | 05:45 |
| ziroday | spool32: doing lsb_release -a will tell you | 05:45 |
| spool32 | ziroday: yep. hardy, 8.04.2 | 05:46 |
| ziroday | spool32: okay, well upgrading to 9.04 may have that card working OOTB | 05:47 |
| ziroday | spool32: or you can try compile a newer version of madwifi for that card, but I strongly recommend upgrading to 9.04 | 05:47 |
| spool32 | unfortunately I can't... this is a test machine for QA of updates and scripts for a game server, and the live box runs v8 | 05:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | spool32, might be of interest too you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=659118, no solution there unfortunately | 05:48 |
| ziroday | spool32: right, in that case you'll have to compile newer madwifi drivers. Lemme see if I can pull up a document on that | 05:49 |
| spool32 | ziroday: can't jack with the OS version, sadly. | 05:49 |
| spool32 | what is this madwifi? | 05:49 |
| ziroday | spool32: its the driver for that card | 05:49 |
| ziroday | spool32: err I'm sorry I have to shoot out now. I'm sure somebody else will be able to help | 05:50 |
| spool32 | I thought madwifi was some sort of alternate driver resource. | 05:50 |
| spool32 | OK | 05:50 |
| spool32 | ziroday: thanks anyhow. | 05:50 |
| hipitihop | can someone tell me if it is possible to have a normal desktop user (non admin) but allow them to install programs from add remove or synaptic ? | 05:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | hipitihop, that's what an admin user can do | 05:51 |
| spool32 | someone else? Further support possibly? I'n not convinced it's a driver issue because iwconfig claims that the card can see the WIFI network and the access point. | 05:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | spool32, what happens when you try to connect to the network? | 05:51 |
| hipitihop | ZykoticK9: sure but does that not also give them all sort of other rights administering the system ? | 05:52 |
| spool32 | zykes-: dhclient never receives a response from the DHCP server on the wireless router. | 05:52 |
| spool32 | erm | 05:52 |
| spool32 | ZykoticK9: *points up* | 05:52 |
| Pafs321 | hi! i just updated my system, to the new kernel (2.6.28-12), my webcam is a microsoft VX-1000, and it stopped working, i reinstalled the v4l library, and the webcam started to work but the image is green, i tested on cheese and skype, when i logged on the 2.6.28-11 version of the kernel the webcam worked normally... anyone has an idea of what's the problem? | 05:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | spool32, does it Connect to the wireless network ok? | 05:52 |
| spool32 | ZykoticK9: with eth0 (wired nic) it works instantly. It appears to connect, at least iwconfig claims that it is seeing the SSID and the AP. | 05:53 |
| spool32 | but I can never get an IP address. | 05:53 |
| shruthi | I have to run this rmmod ssb modprobe wl everytime to connect to wireless, how can I automate this | 05:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | spool32, is there a network icon in the top right that you can use to connect to wireless networks? (i don't remember 8.04 very well) | 05:54 |
| spool32 | ZykoticK9: there is... I used it to config the card and it looks fine, but the card never receives an IP. | 05:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | spool32, IP comes after connecting to the wireless network, which is step 1 | 05:55 |
| shruthi | ou might navigate to in /etc/crontab, and enter | 05:56 |
| shruthi | "@reboot root <sudo rmmod ssb>" | 05:56 |
| shruthi | "@reboot root <sudo modprobe wl" | 05:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | spool32, what wireless security are you using? have you put in the passkey/phrase into the wireless connection setting? there must be a way to actually try to connect to wireless networks - do you see a list anywhere? | 05:56 |
| spool32 | ZykoticK9: open WEP, and there's a place to enter the key in that network config section. I've done this, both as a hex value and as ascii (it gives me an option to do either). | 05:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | spool32, "open WEP"? what do you mean | 05:58 |
| spool32 | WEP has an 'open' and a 'shared (or Restricted)' mode. | 05:58 |
| hipitihop | I have a fully installed jaunty on a usb flash drive from which the machine boots... from another machine is there an easy way to take a complete copy of this flashdrive using dd or simialr so if the user stuff the flash drive I can easily reinstate ? | 05:59 |

| ed_debian | hipitihop, The last bit of your question doesn't make sense. "using dd or similar so if the user stuff the flash drive I can easily reinstate" ? | 06:01 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: if the user trasheds the usb flash drive or loses it, I would like to simply copy onto new drive from my nas | 06:02 |

| Hogarth | when I type the apostrpohe, it pauses then adds a symbol that I don´t think is an apostrophe. I also have to hold down the key to get it to make the apostrophe. | 06:09 |

| mah | hogarth: try ~, then 1 and see if you get superscript | 06:10 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: well I'm guessing to even mount the usb flash drive, I would need gparted and setup same partions as I had on original flash drive ? | 06:11 |
| spool32 | ZykoticK9: thanks, I appreciate the help.. maybe I'll try moving up to 9.04 and see if it causes a shitstorm with the QA team. | 06:11 |
| Hogarth | Imah, I wouldn´t know how to make it do superscript, but sometimes it accents letters that I don´t want accented. Oh, it also beeps inside of the computer. | 06:11 |
| ed_debian | oDuda, I was about to ask that. How are you talking on an irc client if you can't get internet to work? You're running windows right now? | 06:11 |

| Hogarth | no, mah, no super script. | 06:12 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: full jaunty installation ... told it to use the entire drive 4gb | 06:12 |
| oDuda | ed_debian argh .. yes with rwindows... | 06:12 |
| ed_debian | hipitihop, Ok before when you had random stuff on it. You plugged it into your computer from time to time and a nautilus window popped up showing the contents of the drive correct? | 06:12 |
| Pafs321 | hi! i just updated my system, to the new kernel (2.6.28-12), my webcam is a microsoft VX-1000, and it stopped working, i reinstalled the v4l library, and the webcam started to work but the image is green, i tested on cheese and skype, when i logged on the 2.6.28-11 version of the kernel the webcam worked normally... anyone has an idea of what's the problem? | 06:12 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: just want to backup this install to a file on my nas incase the user does something with the flash drive so it is easy to create another one | 06:13 |
| oDuda | ed_debian i already know my serial port (ttyS0)... but nothing more i can do... | 06:13 |
| jakuphl | !grub | 06:13 |
| ubottu | GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 06:13 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: remember this flash driver is bootable | 06:13 |
| ed_debian | hipitihop, Yes I know that I'm trying to explain what mounting is. | 06:14 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: sorry, go on | 06:14 |
| oDuda | ed_debian at 8.xx i used wired connection under network connections... with 9.04 i dont identificate this... | 06:14 |
| jakuphl | ok.. I have searched everywhere, but I keep getting grub error 17 | 06:14 |
| gartral | I have a proccess that's been zombied for days, how do i kill it? | 06:14 |
| jakuphl | I physically removed the internal hdd and installed ubuntu on an external hdd, | 06:15 |
| ed_debian | When you plug a usb drive into the system a nautilus window pops up and displays the contents of the drive. When this happnes the system automatically mounted the drive for you. All mounting means is taking a file-system and making it available in a file on your current file system (usually /media/something) | 06:15 |
| ed_debian | hipitihop, You don't have to do anything really to mount (90% of the time) | 06:15 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: I'm with you | 06:15 |
| ed_debian | oDuda, You can download packages from the internet in windows, throw them on a usb key and then open them in linux (you would be looking for a .deb file) | 06:15 |
| Hogarth | mah, sorry that I´m not that patient, but do you know of a solution to this? Itś pretty annoying. | 06:15 |
| ed_debian | hipitihop, So once you have your ubuntu install (from the usb drive) dd'd to some folder on your nas you can simply plug in a new key and dd it back | 06:16 |
| ed_debian | hipitihop, That is my understanding anyway | 06:16 |
| oDuda | ed_debian yes ! i forgot usb key... but i really need wvdial* packages ? | 06:16 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: so maybe I should confirm, given some random flash drive, if I was to mount that on my system and then dd back to it, it will replace partion information and everything on that drive and make it bootable ? | 06:16 |
| mah | no, i dont. I would just mess with the keyboard layout settings and see if you can manually set what ~ does | 06:16 |
| thehoodinternet | is there a way to safely share files with samba.... when i nessus myself it comes up with a big problem not having a login/password... i just want to share some stuff and have the permissions be read only with no probability of anyone deleting anything | 06:16 |
| gartral | I have a proccess that's been zombied for days, how do i kill it without know what it is? | 06:17 |
| Hogarth | I will try that. | 06:17 |
| ed_debian | hipitihop, dd will not repartition for you (sorry I didn't realize the problem until just now) | 06:17 |
| jmberiault | Hi, I have installed pidentd and I still can't connect to the undernet servers(whether it'd be pidgin or the java client), I am Running 9.04, my router is a WRT54GL (with IDENT filter)with DD-WRT(I previously had Tomato) any1 can guide me on this I would appreciate it tremendously | 06:17 |
| ed_debian | oDuda, Can you current ubuntu install read ntfs? | 06:17 |
| victorine | quit | 06:17 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: so dd isn't a bit for bit copy as such | 06:18 |
| genii | gartral: Find it's pid with: ps ax|grep it's-name-here (pid is left number). Then: sudo kill pid-number If it still can't die then use -9 with it | 06:18 |
| oDuda | ed_debian my ubuntu installation reads rwindows partition... | 06:18 |
| casperfoo | maybe, maybe | 06:18 |
| ed_debian | hipitihop, I think it is. I am not sure about those details. dd will not repartition for you though. That I am sure of. | 06:18 |
| gartral | genii: i have no idea what is zombied, im going off what top says | 06:19 |
| === JabberWalkie_2 is now known as JabberWalkie | ||
| ed_debian | oDuda, Then just download the packages you need (wxdial or whatever) and then open them in linux. | 06:19 |
| ed_debian | Remember to find .deb packages! | 06:19 |
| ed_debian | they're the easiest | 06:19 |
| gartral | and i know how to use ps in all its carnations | 06:19 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: thanks for your clarifications and help. I'll read up a little more.... perhaps I'll need to first check how the original flash is partioned, I suspect just ext3 across the whole drive and if so, just have to make sure I do the same on the new drive | 06:19 |
| ed_debian | oDuda, It is really hard to work with a linux distro that doesn't have a connection | 06:19 |
| oDuda | ed_debian ok but where to download from ? | 06:19 |
| geirha | hipitihop, ed_debian: Yes, if you make an image from /dev/sdb (or whatever the device is), it will also copy the partition table | 06:19 |
| oDuda | ed_debian very hard | 06:20 |
| ed_debian | oDuda, Just google it man | 06:20 |
| ed_debian | There you go hipitihop geirha Has the answer! | 06:20 |
| oDuda | ed_debian ok ill try it ! man, thanks a lot ! | 06:20 |
| hipitihop | geirha: oh cool... so the question is, does it have to be unmounted first ? | 06:20 |
| ed_debian | oDuda, No problem (you're not out of the woods yet) | 06:20 |
| oDuda | :-) | 06:20 |
| geirha | hipitihop: I don't think so, but I'd recommend it. If something is written to it while you make the image, the image may become corrupt | 06:21 |
| hipitihop | ed_debian: geirha, I'm asking because I notice in gparted I can see the usb drive and partion and it give me mount unmount options, but even when I unmount, I can see the device | 06:21 |
| Er1K | Jordan_U: Although messy/hackish, I found a nice solution to my glx library issue....and before you ask, I'm cat'ing the file due to odd issues with bindfiles stuff in ltsp, but the relevant meat is in http://www.pastebin.ca/1440654 | 06:21 |

| ed_debian | hipitihop, When you unmount you cannot go to computer / flash drive | 06:21 |
| genii | gartral: Sorry for lag, someone at door. The command: ps -el | grep 'Z' should tell you which it is | 06:22 |
| poboy975 | hello, can i ask a question about geany here? I'm having a execute error | 06:22 |
| ed_debian | hipitihop, The computer can see the device and even read it's partition info but it cannot read/write in that devices filesystem unless it is mounted | 06:22 |
| gartral | genii: never thought of combining those two, thanks | 06:22 |
| hipitihop | geirha: and ed_debian are we talking cross purposes here ? | 06:22 |
| genii | gartral: np | 06:22 |
| ed_debian | poboy975, You never need to ask to ask! Just ask? Are you writing python code with geany? | 06:22 |
| ed_debian | cross purposes? | 06:23 |

| poboy975 | I'm trying to learn c++ and running the simple hello world compiles with no errors....but when I try to execute I get a script error code 127 | 06:23 |
| geirha | hipitihop: If gparted doesn't show lock/key icons for any of the partitions on the drive, then all partitions are unmounted and it should be safe to make the image | 06:23 |
| ed_debian | poboy975, What is the first line of your script? | 06:24 |
| hipitihop | geirha: and ed_debian | 06:24 |
| poboy975 | which script | 06:24 |

| phobiac | Name141: Does it load a live CD fine? | 06:59 |
| phobiac | Or is that what you meant, it doesn't? | 07:00 |
| gartral | eseven73: 9.04, and the keyboard was a $20 *no-name* from inkstop, the instructions and warenty were printed mirred and said something about vuescape... the keyboard is HIGHLY generic, and the media keys work, but programs dont pick them up | 07:00 |
| anom01y | kopete->settings->video should show /dev/video0, but it doesnt | 07:00 |
| Name141 | phobiac: from DVD | 07:00 |
| jakuphl | Xodiac13: is it crackly when you do this in terminal? zsnes -ad sdl | 07:00 |

| jakuphl | Xodiac13: ofcourse turn zsnes off before doing it | 07:00 |

| RKR | Hi , Everyone I am in need of a 3gp video convertor for ubuntu 9.04 pls anybody help me | 07:01 |
| eseven73 | gartral, thats going to be tough to diagnose with a no-name generic keyboard, best you could probably do is search the forums | 07:01 |
| froes | another thing is that i dont seem to be able to install any software it always says its not i386 capable | 07:01 |
| Xodiac13 | its still crackly | 07:01 |
| phobiac | Name141: Uhhh, I'm not sure what is shipped. Probably CDs. It sounds like a BIOS issue. | 07:01 |
| Xodiac13 | the sound | 07:01 |
| Name141 | phobiac: So there is nothing I can really do? | 07:01 |
| phobiac | Name141: You may have just downloaded a corrupt file for making the live flash drive. | 07:02 |
| gartral | eseven73: im sure its the programs because my sansa e250 (Rockboxed) has the same generic hid properties, and all the programs react exactly the same | 07:02 |
| geirha | anom01y: camorama only supports v4l devices, while xawt probably supports both v4l and v4l2 | 07:02 |
| Xodiac13 | the sound | 07:02 |

| Name141 | phobiac: Would the dell DVD be a waste of time ? | 07:07 |
| phobiac | Name141: The only thing I can suggest is to look through the BIOS for anything regarding "removable media" or anything that says "USB" and see if a setting is wrong. | 07:07 |
| jakuphl | Xodiac13: okay, in terminal do: gedit ~/.zsnes/zsnesl.cfg | 07:07 |

| Name141 | phobiac: Try it instead | 07:08 |
| kz | hey guys, just installed ubuntu | 07:08 |
| phobiac | Name141: Oh. Maybe the flash drive is bad then? Try booting from it on another computer. Although you said you can read and write to it, so I'm guessing that's not it. | 07:08 |
| Xodiac13 | okay i did | 07:08 |
| kz | how would i get dual screens working? | 07:08 |
| phobiac | Name141: Sure, if it boots from a Live CD or DVD instead, that should be fine. | 07:08 |
| Name141 | phobiac: Yeah.. seeing as there are other problems | 07:08 |
| Name141 | phobiac: I think I might as well give up linux | 07:09 |

| jakuphl | Xodiac13: On line 178, change "auto" to "sdl" | 07:09 |

| Name141 | phobiac: I think the machine just wasn't meant for it. | 07:10 |
| phobiac | Name141: Booting from flash drives is a very very recent thing in terms of computer years, so I'm not horribly surprised about your issues. | 07:10 |
| phobiac | Name141: Oh man I know how you feel. | 07:10 |
| phobiac | Name141: My netbook is just barely supported by ubuntu at all. The hardware is so new, a lot of stuff doesn't work right or at all. | 07:10 |

| kz | how do i get dual screens working? | 07:11 |
| Name141 | phobiac: Yes, it seems the NIC uses the e1000e 'module' ? It was the same module as was in hardy that worked perfect. So where did it go wrong? | 07:11 |

| Rapghere | I have installed APTonCD in my system but when i tried to work with it after 70 % the error message is comming that "Fatal Error: Failed to fork" What can i do? | 08:27 |
| zhiland | won that invoke the password promt every time? | 08:27 |
| kz | eg i have firefox maximised in the background, a few windows in the foreground, and i want to click the top panel to make firefox into focus | 08:28 |
| darlek | probably need to first sudo aptitude install pastebinit | 08:28 |
| roccity_ | zhiland, so if I wanted to launch firefox as root I would use "gksudo firefox" without quotes | 08:28 |
| zhiland | fight i did that | 08:28 |
| zhiland | right | 08:28 |
| roccity_ | zhiland, yeah it would but thats the put of root or sudo | 08:28 |
| zhiland | so the problem im having is when i dont do that, firefox is all jacked up | 08:28 |
| zhiland | like the buttons dont work in web pages, google doesnt work ect | 08:29 |
| darlek | !find pastebinit (if you haven't grabbed this already...) | 08:29 |
| ubottu | (if is not a valid distribution: dapper, dapper-backports, hardy, hardy-backports, intrepid, intrepid-backports, jaunty, jaunty-backports, karmic, karmic-backports, kubuntu-backports, kubuntu-experimental, kubuntu-updates, medibuntu, partner | 08:29 |
| fennng | ls | 08:29 |
| zhiland | so your saying just have it run that way all the time | 08:29 |
| Slart | edogzilla: ok, you're right.. two hard drives.. about 30.000 cylinders on each... first one cylinder 1-16708 is ntfs.. that's about half the available size... the ubuntu partition seems to be using the whole drive though | 08:29 |
| roccity_ | zhiland, what about uninstalling firefox | 08:29 |
| kz | bit of an off chance here but is there a way to make it when you click the top panel it brings the currently maximised window in the foreground into focus? eg i have firefox maximised in the background, a few windows in the foreground, and i want to click the top panel to make firefox into focus | 08:29 |
| Arkhalis | still looking around to no avail... general answer is ubuntu doesn't work on the 1008HA eeepc yet | 08:29 |
| zhiland | in place of somthing else | 08:30 |
| zhiland | or just a reinstall | 08:30 |
| Arkhalis | guess i'll have to stick to windows xp for now >< | 08:30 |
| darlek | Arkhalis, isn't there a netbook iso? | 08:30 |
| nascentmind | Hi. When i play flash videos i don't get any sound in ubuntu jaunty. how can if fix it? | 08:30 |

| Arkhalis | Yes | 08:30 |
| darlek | I thought i saw one | 08:30 |
| Arkhalis | i am using it | 08:30 |
| roccity_ | zhiland, reinstall "sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox" from a terminal it may remove your settings to though | 08:30 |
| Slart | edogzilla: so you want the windows drive to use the entire first hard drive? | 08:30 |
| Arkhalis | problem is neither wired or wireless internet work on 9.04 | 08:31 |
| edogzilla | slart: ubuntu too | 08:31 |
| darlek | argh i see | 08:31 |
| Arkhalis | i can't get either to work at all | 08:31 |
| zhiland | bummer, then what command to bring it back? | 08:31 |
| Slart | edogzilla: oh.. hmm.. is this an old computer? | 08:31 |
| edogzilla | slart: brand new | 08:31 |
| nascentmind | anybody? | 08:31 |
| darlek | Arkhalis, what type of wireless card? | 08:31 |

| Slart | edogzilla: can you do the same with this command? "sudo df -h" | 08:32 |
| zhiland | same problem | 08:32 |
| Arkhalis | right now i need wired internet though which won't work | 08:32 |

| Slart | edogzilla: ah.. great.. lets do that | 08:42 |
| darlek | Arkhalis, not sure why you need wired connection. I use madwifi for my Atheros card but you need linux header and linux ports installed first. However once loaded the madwifi.sh script installs the drivers. This is just a different driver than compat | 08:42 |
| edogzilla | slart: cool it worked, but why is my ubuntu HD messed up? | 08:43 |
| Slart | edogzilla: messed up? how is it messed up? | 08:43 |
| edogzilla | slart: when i go to places, it shows me my drive. it says it is 137.4 GB. but it should be just shy of 250 | 08:43 |

| geirha | !paste | zhiland | 09:07 |
| ubottu | zhiland: 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) | 09:07 |
| hoohaah | i plan on setting up a debian sid box alongside my ubuntu box. Will most versions be similar, and are all maintenance procedures the same? | 09:07 |
| raghav | hey all sorry just new to ubuntu | 09:07 |
| darlek | usually you have to first sudo aptitude install pastebinit on ubuntu as it's not already loaded | 09:07 |
| hoohaah | zhiland: apt-get install pastebinit, and you can use upload shell output or files easily | 09:08 |
| darlek | ftw | 09:08 |
| hoohaah | quality > timing | 09:08 |
| raghav | so is this the place for asking for help | 09:08 |
| raghav | or can we just chat normally | 09:08 |
| zeeble | fccf: http://pastebin.com/m5c2abd3d it is a intel GMA965 chipset | 09:08 |

| ubottu | mirage: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 09:09 |
| hoohaah | raghav: our asses are unplugged, if that's what you mean | 09:09 |

| hoohaah | think mule playing rock guitar | 09:09 |
| raghav | look im new what u mean? | 09:09 |
| fccf | zeeble: ok, now post your xorg.conf | 09:09 |
| zhiland | ok installed how od i use it | 09:10 |
| zhiland | how do i use pastbin? | 09:10 |
| hoohaah | raghav: it means you can ask ubuntu questions (mind you, not every little thing you can't solve.. consult ubuntu help pages or google first) but we don't have any stern nazi ops | 09:10 |
| zeeble | fccf: o.o my xorg.conf is a blank file .. atleast the one in /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 09:11 |
| hoohaah | zhiland: pastebinit /path/to/file | 09:11 |
| raghav | ok | 09:11 |
| raghav | thank youi | 09:11 |
| geirha | zhiland: Run pastebinit in another terminal, copy paste the data to where you're running pastebinit, then hit Ctrl+D | 09:11 |
| raghav | how do i invite my other friends | 09:11 |
| raghav | ? | 09:11 |
| darlek | have the output of a command piped to pastebinit, ie: lshw | pastebinit and it will spit out a URL | 09:11 |
| geirha | zhiland: err no, sorry, strike that | 09:11 |
| zeeble | you dont invite friends on IRC, raghav | 09:11 |
| fccf | zeeble: you shouldn't have a blank file... x wont start without something readable there | 09:11 |
| kanon-mat | invite? just join | 09:12 |
| raghav | ok | 09:12 |
| hoohaah | zhiland: if you're using irssi, you can output result of pastebinit command in channel for all to see | 09:12 |
| Gamarok__ | this is a support channel raghav | 09:12 |
| raboof | one of my network printers is marked 'stopped' because it coulnd't be resolved | 09:12 |
| hoohaah | not sure of other irc clients | 09:12 |
| zhiland | so just copy and paste | 09:12 |
| zhoujingrui | anyone help me? | 09:12 |
| raboof | i made the machine available again - now how do I make the printing subsystem retry? it seems to remain 'stopped' | 09:12 |
| djones | raghav: If you're looking for a general chat channel about ubuntu, you should join #ubuntu-offtopic, #ubuntu is for support questions only | 09:12 |
| raghav | o rite ok sorry then, should i use pidgen for that? | 09:12 |
| raghav | ok thanks | 09:12 |
| geirha | zhiland: You'll have to store it in a file first if you want to use pastebinit. Otherwise, open ubuntu.paste.com in a web browser and paste it there | 09:12 |
| raghav | sorry | 09:13 |
| fccf | zeeble: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 09:13 |
| fccf | that will create a new xorg.conf | 09:13 |
| zeeble | ok | 09:13 |
| hoohaah | geirha: wrong. pastebinit can take input from stdin/out | 09:13 |
| zeeble | fccf: well, my X is running.. and the xorg.conf file is blankl | 09:13 |
| zeeble | is it anywhere other than /etc/X11/? | 09:13 |
| Dday | How do i find out the directory of an application? | 09:13 |
| darlek | zhiland, actually no you don't have to save it to a file. Sometimes maybe... ie: lshw | pastebinit and it will spit out a URL without needing a file | 09:13 |
| zeeble | which applicationname, Dday | 09:13 |
| fccf | zeeble: shouldn't be - the default location is there | 09:14 |
| geirha | hoohaah: I'm testing it myself, when I hit ctrl+d it just gives keyboardinterrupt catched, instead of posting the stuff pasted to stdin | 09:14 |
| zhiland | lol wow | 09:14 |
| zeeble | fccf: where can i post a ls -al output screenshot? | 09:14 |
| Dday | Neverball | 09:14 |
| zhiland | you guys lost me | 09:14 |
| zeeble | nvm. wait. | 09:14 |
| darlek | zhiland, so just take whatever command you need, and pipe it to pastebinit | 09:14 |
| hoohaah | geirha: from man page: -i [filename] (- for reading from stdin) | 09:14 |
| fccf | email it to me metatecque at gmail.com | 09:14 |
| hoohaah | geirha: ie $ pastebinit - | 09:14 |
| kanon-mat | Dday, locate applicationname finds files for you | 09:14 |
| geirha | zhiland: Ok, let's try it a different way. Run "gnome-panel | pastebinit", then make gnome-panel crash again | 09:15 |
| zhoujingrui | my system no sound | 09:15 |
| geirha | hoohaah: Yes, try it, it doesn't work. | 09:15 |
| zhoujingrui | :-( | 09:15 |
| zeeble | fccf: ok, hold on | 09:15 |
| darlek | !sound | zhoujingrui | 09:15 |
| ubottu | zhoujingrui: 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 | 09:15 |
| yoyit2 | lightscribe jaunty? | 09:15 |

| geirha | hoohaah: I'm on 8.04, maybe it's fixed in newer versions | 09:17 |
| hoohaah | geirha: check man page. functionality in your particular version would be listed | 09:17 |
| zeeble | fccf: just sent it. check the screenshot | 09:17 |
| hoohaah | geirha: how are you pasting to stdin? | 09:18 |
| darlek | and the URL is??? | 09:18 |

| Gamarok__ | i kinda had a problem i recently installed blue man and well i cant see it's applet the only way i can launch it is by typing blueman-applet in a term it isn't even present in the menu can anyone help me | 09:18 |

| zhiland | so as far as pastebinit goes, id how to use it, so i cant do much there | 09:21 |
| geirha | zhiland: Hm. You could try resetting the panels (to the way they were when you first installed), have you tried that? | 09:22 |
| hoohaah | zhiland: what are you trying to paste, exactly? | 09:22 |
| darlek | !samba | danes | 09:22 |

| ManDay | Is there a way I can replace the icon for the main-menu in gnome? | 09:23 |
| zhiland | so im going to do a clean install and hope ofr the best | 09:23 |
| geirha | zhiland: One last try: "gnome-panel 2>&1 | pastebinit" | 09:23 |
| ManDay | The ubuntu icon is too small to click | 09:24 |
| geirha | zhiland: then when it crashes, it should output an URL | 09:24 |
| fccf | stavrosLinux: are you stavrosthehunter from arcata | 09:24 |
| hoohaah | stdout may provide clues too | 09:24 |

| fccf | zeeble: that is a good start - now lemme do a little research on your card 5 min | 09:26 |
| Slart | Ali_: how do you start vmware from a terminal? just run "vmware" ? | 09:26 |
| zeeble | fccf: afaik, there is prob with the xorg drivers for Intel chipsets. i was wondering if a fix had been built | 09:27 |
| zhiland | i did the command, then it died on its own and it didnt spit anything out null term | 09:27 |
| zeeble | basically, all intel chipset graphics cards, have no compiz running :( | 09:27 |
| zeeble | esp on laptops. | 09:27 |
| Ali_ | Slart, i run it from the web browser - i'm running version 2 | 09:28 |
| Slart | !intel | 09:28 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. | 09:28 |
| fccf | I have been able to get compiz running on that the intel machines - I just have to remember how | 09:28 |

| FloodBot3 | largos: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:29 |
| darlek | ManDay, you can resize the icons on the panel, right-click, properties | 09:29 |
| ManDay | And is there a way (maybe to set in compiz) to move windows FREELY? Even Alt + LMB doesnt enable me to move windows across borders | 09:29 |
| fccf | zeeble: It can be made to work - need more info | 09:29 |
| Slart | anternative: server version is command line only by default | 09:29 |
| Tootoot222 | Ali_: turn off everything else that makes sound, and try vmware | 09:29 |
| ManDay | darlek, i dont want to change my panel | 09:29 |

| kealc | Ali_: get it from the site, http://www.virtualbox.org, I'm not sure if you can run your existing image, but at least try out vbox, it's much better in some regards, just be sure to install guest additions | 09:30 |

| hoohaah | geirha: his only real option was to use strace, as when a tool crashes, it usually stops printing anything | 09:31 |
| Slart | Ali_: then I don't really know what to do.. sorry... padsp is good if you can start it from a command line.. with a browser I don't know what to do | 09:31 |

| paraneetharanc | HI All | 09:32 |
| ManDay | is there a way (maybe to set in compiz) to move windows FREELY? Even Alt + LMB doesnt enable me to move windows across borders | 09:32 |
| Slart | Ali_: it's a wrapper like program.. say you've got a program called awesomeprogram.. it uses alsa for audio.. if you start it like this "padsp awesomeprogram" padsp will translate the alsa calls to pulseaudio... | 09:32 |
| Ali_ | so what is better vmware or virtualbox? | 09:32 |
| darlek | !find padsp | Ali_ | 09:32 |
| ubottu | Ali_: File padsp found in pulseaudio-utils | 09:32 |
| zhiland | vmware | 09:32 |
| geirha | zhiland: Did you run gnome-panel as root? | 09:32 |
| darlek | seems to be a part of pulseaudio | 09:32 |
| Ali_ | aah Slart sounds good - but how do i know which device is vmware using? | 09:33 |
| zhiland | no | 09:33 |
| Slart | ManDay: there is a setting somewhere in the settings manager.. let me check | 09:33 |
| zhiland | thers a term open and if i close out of it, it will crash my gnome | 09:33 |
| Ali_ | pulseaudio-utils is already the newest version. | 09:33 |

| zhiland | and then blank | 09:33 |
| fccf | zeeble: my 3 1/2 cents | 09:34 |
| kanon-mat | Dday, does replay work? | 09:34 |
| geirha | zhiland: Hm. | 09:34 |
| zeeble | fccf: yep. i'll wait then. | 09:34 |
| zhiland | yeah | 09:34 |
| zhiland | and my firefox still doesnt work | 09:34 |
| zeeble | fccf: i had a slow laptop for a long long time, and now that i got a decent machine, the eye candy doesnt eork. hehe | 09:35 |

| zhiland | when istarted though everything was perfect | 09:35 |
| zhiland | that was back in the 8.04 (which is were im at) | 09:36 |
| Slart | ManDay: take a look att he Desktop Wall plugin.. see if "Edge flipping" is enabled | 09:36 |
| fccf | zeeble: eyecandy is nice, but fast is really nice -- I'm running a streaming server so the 4 gigs of ram I have is dedicated to the stream and encoding, not too worried about video at this point | 09:36 |
| zhiland | . | 09:36 |
| zeeble | fccf: hehe | 09:36 |
| geirha | zhiland: Could you try creating a new user, and log in as that user? "sudo adduser new_username" | 09:36 |
| geirha | zhiland: See if you get the same problems | 09:36 |
| zhiland | ok hold on | 09:36 |
| ManDay | errm no that means that you drag windows from one desk to another | 09:37 |
| zeeble | fccf: i actually moved from 9.04 to the next proposed LTS alpha. hoping it had the fix | 09:37 |
| ManDay | i want to be able to move windows out of ALL desktops | 09:37 |
| ManDay | so to say | 09:37 |

| zeeble | nice. | 09:37 |
| darlek | ManDay, in the pager you can move windows around any which way but I can't move the larger the same way | 09:38 |
| zhiland | i did just sucesfuly crash my gnome again | 09:38 |
| zeeble | "successfully"? | 09:38 |
| * paraneetharanc hello | 09:38 | |
| ManDay | darlek, can you rephrase? | 09:38 |
| hoohaah | screen would come in handy here | 09:39 |
| ManDay | just to make clear what i want: My screen is sometimes too small for the window. so i want to be able to move the window freely so i can see othher parts of it | 09:39 |
| darlek | ic | 09:39 |
| fccf | zeeble: success is measured in $ ... unless you are working for a church and then it is measured in length of time in pergatory | 09:40 |
| hoohaah | who works for the church?! | 09:40 |
| darlek | ManDay, I had something like that on another system. I'd have to maximize then the window would let me scroll. In this case you want the windows manager to move over the open part? | 09:40 |
| hoohaah | surely they're not paid in brownie points?! | 09:40 |
| kraut | moin | 09:41 |
| fccf | hoohaah: FCCF does aka First Christian Church Fullerton | 09:41 |
| hoohaah | and you work for the church? | 09:41 |
| fccf | Hoohaah: as a volunteer | 09:41 |

| darlek | yes | 09:42 |
| ManDay | darlek, well one option would bee that i'd get scrollbars in the window, but since i dont deem this possible it would be enough for me if i could move the window with a alt-lmb somewhere - and even move the titlebar out of the screen (which isnt possible atm) | 09:42 |

| fccf | mathijs175: Conversation ... Add+ | 10:06 |
| mathijs175 | ok thanks | 10:06 |
| packetcase | Myrtti: The bug might be because something went wrong under the installation of sun-java6-plugin. When I tried again it installed successful. This might be caused by the userunfriendliness of add/remove. | 10:07 |
| Myrtti | packetcase: if you think it's a bug, then by all means, file it | 10:07 |
| packetcase | Myrtti: Not a bug, but add/remove should be changed so it don't stop working when a package is broken | 10:09 |

| kz | when i tab it just goes to highlight run with file | 10:51 |
| kealc | you can do it through synaptic like I said | 10:51 |
| Gnea | oh, I thought you were asking how do you run it from the commandline | 10:51 |
| Gnea | why didn't you just say so | 10:51 |
| kz | nah how to download it | 10:51 |
| kz | i did lol | 10:51 |
| Gnea | ... | 10:51 |
| Gnea | kz: not in proper english :) | 10:52 |
| kz | lol | 10:52 |
| kz | ok | 10:52 |
| Gnea | kz: yeah, just: sudo apt-get install amsn | 10:52 |
| Gnea | that's it | 10:52 |
| geirha | kz: or open apt://amsn in firefox | 10:53 |
| kealc | Gnea: kz is having problems running as root | 10:53 |
| kz | yea | 10:53 |
| Gnea | kz: do you know your regular user password? | 10:53 |
| kz | yer | 10:53 |
| kz | lol | 10:53 |
| Gnea | so why won't sudo work? :) | 10:53 |
| midnajt | hey does Ubuntu have a Firewall | 10:54 |
| Gnea | !firewall | midnajt | 10:54 |
| ubottu | midnajt: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 10:54 |
| kz | just closes and comes up with nothing | 10:54 |
| nks_ | Would anyone happen know anything about vboxne ? | 10:54 |
| Myrtti | matrix: yes, but it's not enabled by default, because by default you don't have anything that would open up any ports | 10:54 |
| === methyl is now known as methylisocyanate | ||
| Gnea | kz: what, exactly, does it say? can you pastebin it? | 10:54 |
| midnajt | thank you checking now | 10:54 |
| kealc | midkniht: it uses iptables, all ports are closed on a default install, you can install firestarter or guarddog which act as a frontend for iptables | 10:54 |
| geirha | kz: in a terminal it's "sudo aptitude install amsn", but with Alt+F2, you need to use the graphical sudo, so replace sudo with gksudo | 10:54 |
| Myrtti | matrix: sorry | 10:55 |
| Myrtti | matrix: tabfail | 10:55 |
| Myrtti | midnajt: ^ | 10:55 |
| kealc | I meant midnajt* | 10:55 |
| midnajt | xD | 10:55 |
| Gnea | kz: it's just better to type it in a terminal than with alt+f2 anyway | 10:55 |
| kz | ah ok | 10:55 |
| Gnea | if something goes wrong, you'll know about it right away | 10:56 |

| sydneyguy | Hail all | 10:58 |
| proklevty | i've a question | 10:58 |
| jj_ | hey | 10:58 |
| Gnea | proklevty: okay, well you're in the official Ubuntu support forum, currently. | 10:58 |
| proklevty | it's normal thet there are no update in new 9.04? | 10:59 |
| === ignusb_ is now known as ignusb | ||
| jj_ | no update what do you mean? | 10:59 |
| Gnea | proklevty: how long since last update? | 10:59 |
| ignusb | that's curious, didn't think I stayed logged in here.. hello | 10:59 |
| Aqa | any software to limit my internet speed? easy software i hate commands | 10:59 |
| proklevty | update for installed software | 11:00 |
| Gnea | proklevty: you know what? I don't see anything being updated either... and it's been over a week since i last did anything with it | 11:00 |
| sydneyguy | what is the different between ircii and irssi? | 11:00 |
| proklevty | i've installed ubuntu minimal without gnome | 11:00 |
| Gnea | sydneyguy: too much to discuss here :) | 11:00 |
| sydneyguy | hehehehehehe | 11:01 |
| sydneyguy | Where can I check that? | 11:01 |
| hoohaah | sydneyguy: raining? | 11:01 |
| jj_ | proklevty: which window manager you using ? | 11:01 |
| proklevty | fluxbox | 11:01 |
| geirha | sydneyguy: ircii old, irssi new | 11:01 |
| hoohaah | ircii is fun to play with | 11:01 |
| Gnea | sydneyguy: I would just install both and see which one you like better | 11:01 |
| midnajt | Ubuntu: I'm getting addicted to you xD | 11:01 |
| jj_ | proklevty: have you tried "apt-get update" ? | 11:01 |
| proklevty | tes | 11:02 |
| Aqa | midkniht, :D | 11:02 |
| proklevty | yes | 11:02 |
| Gnea | jj_: that's the thing, i just did an update and then a dist-upgrade and nada, no updates | 11:02 |
| proklevty | update install -f | 11:02 |
| proklevty | etc | 11:02 |
| proklevty | but nothing | 11:02 |
| geirha | proklevty: sudo aptitude safe-upgrade | 11:03 |
| Gnea | my sources.list -> http://pastebin.com/f23299aa0 | 11:03 |
| proklevty | what is that? | 11:03 |
| jj_ | proklevty: if all sources are enabled it should be updating, but i havent had an update for a few days now | 11:03 |
| geirha | proklevty: it will install updates | 11:03 |
| Niels_ | how can I change the locale (de UTF-8) on a jaunty machine? | 11:04 |
| djdarkman | hello I fell really screwed by ATI, I have an Xpress 200M in my laptop, that is said to be only supported by the proprietory 9.3 driver, but that piece of crap won't install on the new xorg | 11:04 |
| patrik | Hi, I'm trying to compile kernel modules but get: "make: Nothing to be done for...", what is the correct way to compile external modules in Ubuntu? | 11:04 |
| geirha | proklevty: I don't think fluxbox comes with an update-manager, so you'll need to update manually. apt-get/aptitude update only downloads the list of packages, while upgrade installs updates | 11:04 |
| midnajt | hey how to find out wich ubuntu version I#m using | 11:04 |
| djdarkman | can someone suggest a feasible solution? | 11:04 |
| proklevty | of corse | 11:05 |
| proklevty | i don't wont desktop manager | 11:05 |
| * Helg look suspiciously at kz | 11:05 | |
| proklevty | i ever use terminal | 11:05 |
| Niels_ | so, how can I change the locale? | 11:05 |
| djdarkman | I can't even watch high resolution films on my laptop, because of this | 11:06 |
| trinity | i don't know | 11:06 |
| proklevty | but is suspicious thet there are no update for few weeks | 11:06 |
| * Gnea looks oddly at Helg | 11:06 | |
| jj_ | djdarkman: i feel your pain i have a hd 3000 series and all drivers thus far are a bit buggy | 11:06 |
| fccf | djdarkman ... nvidia or bust | 11:06 |
| SPF | Niels_: dpkg-reconfigure locales and selecting the ones you want to be generated should work. | 11:07 |
| djdarkman | It's a laptop I can't change that damm videocard' | 11:07 |
| proklevty | identical beaviour whit full ubuntu | 11:07 |
| fccf | djdarkman: I feel your pain | 11:07 |
| proklevty | whit gnome and everything | 11:07 |
| Gnea | djdarkman: ATI is really buggery at times... have you checked the forums? | 11:07 |
| geirha | proklevty: It could be the mirror you are using hasn't got all the updates yet. | 11:07 |
| jj_ | im just waiting for a decent driver,, for now mostly stay on the open source one | 11:07 |
| geirha | proklevty: Try switching to the main archive and see if you get any updates. | 11:08 |
| R4kk00n | djdarkman, i've tried to install xorg from intrepid — it did actually install, and loaded fglrx, but there was no direct rendering and and it hogged the cpu | 11:08 |
| proklevty | has you upgraded yet? | 11:08 |
| jj_ | proklevty: try "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" | 11:08 |
| djdarkman | ok, so that means that I can't use ubuntu I guess.... if it provides no way to downgrade xorg | 11:08 |
| proklevty | jj_: i do that every mourning | 11:09 |
| fennng | I startx from ssh, how can i exit X from ssh? | 11:09 |
| djdarkman | or a way to make the 9.3 driver not bitch because of my xorg version | 11:09 |
| Gnea | djdarkman: that doesn't make any sense, considering the fact that xorg forms the basis of the GUI in ubuntu | 11:09 |
| jj_ | djdarkman: lol new xorg and ati dont get along just yet | 11:09 |
| R4kk00n | they say someone recompiled that previous xorg for jaunty | 11:09 |
| proklevty | geirha: i'm using italy mirror | 11:09 |
| jj_ | proklevty: change mirrors to main | 11:09 |
| proklevty | where can i find? | 11:10 |
| djdarkman | Gnea: so having my laptop run like crap makes more sense? | 11:10 |
| proklevty | on ubuntu site? | 11:10 |
| Niels_ | SPF I am on de_DE.UTF-8 and I'd like to have an UK/US locale. If I say dpkg-reconfigure locale en_US-UTF.8 it doesn't workk | 11:10 |
| Gnea | djdarkman: well, I'd be inclined to look on google, but my web browser just took a nosedive during an upload | 11:10 |
| proklevty | into wiki? | 11:10 |
| djdarkman | I have a feeling that the new and the old xorg is compatible, but those morrons at ati didn't think of this | 11:10 |
| RProgrammer | I finally figured it out! | 11:11 |
| Gnea | djdarkman: but, if I was to look on google, I'd be searching for something like this: ubuntu ati Xpress 200M | 11:11 |
| kealc | fennng: exit | 11:11 |
| geirha | proklevty: gksudo software-properties-gtk | 11:11 |
| Gnea | djdarkman: unfortunately, ATI does not follow the open source world as closely as Nvidia and Intel | 11:11 |
| RProgrammer | The secret to installing Ubuntu on a Mac without a CD Drive is this: | 11:11 |
| RProgrammer | It won't boot from a USB Drive, but it will boot from a FireWire drive. | 11:11 |
| proklevty | i haven't this command | 11:12 |

| proklevty | ok | 11:15 |
| jj_ | proklevty: in sources list | 11:15 |

| paulo | sound card came with some c source code file dont know how to make them | 11:23 |
| jj_ | djdarkman: you install it by enabling it in hardware drivers? | 11:24 |

| fccf | Niels_ relax dude ... port 5900 is usually used to connect to an already running xserver ... which you don't have ... you can however invoke X from ssh and do the same thing | 11:45 |
| GW76 | mrwes i don't know anything bout that i just googled how to disable it and it says in a forum to use bios to disable it but he left already | 11:46 |
| Niels_ | fccf, I have to connect to the server via vnc ion which KVM is running. nmap tells me that port 5900 is closed. So, I have to open that one somehow | 11:46 |
| hippo | midnajt: lastfm is not free anymore :( | 11:47 |
| linxeh | kz: you could delete something too ;-) | 11:47 |
| kz | yea, for some reason though the partition is 2.5gb | 11:47 |
| kz | and its full, dont have anything to delete | 11:47 |
| midnajt | hippo: how come man I didn't know that | 11:47 |
| farchumbre | does anyone is using several keyboard layouts in jaunty ubntu? | 11:48 |
| Niels_ | fccf, have you got an idea, how I can open port 5900? | 11:48 |
| hippo | midnajt: it is still free in the US and in the UK ... | 11:48 |
| farchumbre | i have a bug with multi keyboard layouts, | 11:49 |
| stanis_sh | farchumbre: what bug? | 11:49 |
| midnajt | hippo: well for now I'm able to listen to tracks from Germany xD | 11:49 |
| stanis_sh | farchumbre: I am using colemak and russian. | 11:50 |
| kz | how do i see what drive letter a drive is? | 11:50 |
| Spek33rus | hi | 11:50 |
| bthornton | I just installed ubuntu-restricted-extras and now everything that uses Java is using an openjdk HOME path instead of Sun Java. Are there any easy ways to fix this? | 11:50 |
| farchumbre | stanis_sh: the indication of the layout on the panel becomes ??? when I use thinkfinger or an external usb keyboard | 11:51 |
| GW76 | bthornton: do you have the icedtea plugin installed? | 11:51 |
| kz | how do i see what drive letter a drive is? | 11:51 |
| hippo | midnajt: Then be happy ! Maybe it's still free in Germany too. For me (Canada), it would cost $3/month now. | 11:51 |
| fccf | Niels_ slow down. firstly you will need to learn a few things .. you need to log onto port 5900 of the VM not the local machine ... if you are using NAT ... that should be as simple as accessing the port via the IP address of the VM not the localhost ... does that help | 11:51 |
| bthornton | GW76: I hope not; I have no desire to use it since the Sun plugin was working fine. Do you think ubuntu-restricted-extras pulled that in? | 11:51 |
| fccf | brb... | 11:52 |
| midnajt | hippo: damn man that's wack | 11:52 |
| kz | how do i see what drive letter a drive is? | 11:52 |
| Niels_ | fccf, okay | 11:52 |
| midnajt | hippo: but affordable | 11:52 |
| stanis_sh | farchumbre: I guess, it becomes ??? when the layouts differs, right? | 11:52 |
| GW76 | bthornton no it shouldn't not unless you selected it but you might wanna check to see if that plugin is installed in your add/remove cause that plugin is the one that uses openjdk | 11:52 |
| Kottizen | hi | 11:52 |
| fennng | hi too | 11:52 |
| fccf | ok Niels_ I am back ... this is some advanced stuff so bear with me | 11:53 |
| Niels_ | I will try that, but if I have virtd running which automagically give an IP of a different net, which is usually 192.168.something I havent got the machine in my local subnet anymore | 11:53 |
| hippo | midnajt: actually, it's not free anymore, but in some countries, they consider that the publicity will pay enough, not here unfortunately. | 11:53 |

| === sancas_ is now known as sancas | ||
| Niels_ | fccf, I have to bridge eth0 to virbr0 haven't I? | 11:54 |
| kz | how do i see what drive letter a drive is? | 11:54 |
| ubuntistas | because i cannot find the packages in deb | 11:54 |
| ubuntistas | ? | 11:54 |
| Niels_ | kz, we dont have drive letters in the ix World | 11:54 |
| kz | i see | 11:55 |
| d00000de | actually we have niels | 11:55 |
| GW76 | bthornton: did you check to see if that plugin was installed?? | 11:55 |
| midnajt | hippo: con't you even listen to radio stations | 11:55 |
| kz | what would be the path for a drive called "mammoth"? | 11:55 |
| d00000de | but we combine letters with numbers | 11:55 |
| bthornton | GW76: Sure is | 11:55 |
| Niels_ | kz, you may likely want to use mount to see, how your disk goz mounted | 11:55 |
| farchumbre | I remove some packages by mistake, and now update manager never finds any new updates, it has been a month that it always says, your system is up to date. does anyone know which files i may have deleted? | 11:55 |
| hippo | ubuntistas: these packages are normally the first installed as dependencies of many others. | 11:55 |
| kz | mount? | 11:55 |
| GW76 | bthornton: i figured as much just remove it and ya be back to normal | 11:55 |
| Niels_ | kz, open a terminal and type mount | 11:56 |
| ubuntistas | hippo so/ | 11:56 |
| ubuntistas | ? | 11:56 |
| Niels_ | fccf, are you still with me? | 11:56 |
| farchumbre | i think i removed kde | 11:56 |
| fccf | Niels_ I am not sure of the exact spects for bridging ... I use nat and havn't had any problems with my vboxes ... again I am using virtualbox but that shouldn't matter | 11:56 |
| bthornton | actually it looks like a bunch of openjdk-6-* packages have been installed, likely to support that plugin | 11:56 |
| mtinker1 | Hello, I'm trying to switch from windows to ubuntu...i tried downloading wubi but i keep receiving the error message "tuple index out of range"...what does this mean? | 11:56 |
| bthornton | I don't care about the plugin really; I care that other Java apps (i.e. Eclipse) don't use a broken OpenJDK when Sun's Java is available | 11:56 |
| Niels_ | fccf, can I run in VBox WinServer2008Standard? | 11:56 |
| ubuntistas | can anybody tell how can i install gtk ang glib with a command? | 11:56 |
| Niels_ | ubuntistas, aptitude install gtk glib | 11:57 |

| Niels_ | kz, /dev/sdc1 | 11:57 |
| kz | ty | 11:57 |
| GW76 | bthornton: yea i just knew it would be part of that plugin cause i've dealt with that plugin when trying to get rs to work | 11:57 |
| fccf | Niels_ ... you should have NP with Vbox on the windows side ... that should make things easier ... but it won't run a Kernal Virtual Machine | 11:57 |
| hippo | midnajt: we can still listen 30 songs/month for free ... as far as I know. | 11:57 |
| bthornton | GW76: Thanks for pointing mein the right direction. it's fixed | 11:58 |
| Niels_ | fccf, will VBox make use of my Nehalems and would it make sense to use for the following idea VBox: | 11:58 |
| Niels_ | 1 PDC Server (Win2008) | 11:58 |
| midnajt | hippo: ok so then it could be that it ain't free here to cause I#m at 5th song right now | 11:58 |

| SnowKitty | hello | 11:59 |
| farchumbre | i have a problem with update manager, i can't update anymore | 11:59 |
| === WelshDragon is now known as YDdraigGoch | ||
| fccf | Niels_ ... vbox should take advantage of the multicore chips ... vmware might do it better ... but you would need to run a hypervisor | 11:59 |
| kealc | mtinker1: you can get it from here: http://wubi.sourceforge.net | 11:59 |
| methylisocyanate | farchumbre, you can't update anymore? | 12:00 |
| Niels_ | fccf, and VBox hasn't got a hypervisor? | 12:00 |
| hippo | midnajt: correct. My wife listens at work all the time and received an email today from lastfm. telling her that it was over for this month. They'll tell you. | 12:00 |
| Niels_ | fccf, I'll be back in a few minutes, hope you'll be still there | 12:00 |
| fccf | no vbox will allow you to run all your servers, provided you have enough ram | 12:00 |
| fccf | I'll be her | 12:00 |
| fccf | e | 12:00 |
| midnajt | hippo: damn man thx for the warning | 12:00 |
| mtinker1 | kealc, i'm able to start the download, but after a while, i get the error message "tuple index out of range"...what does this mean? | 12:00 |
| farchumbre | methylisocyanate: i removed some files or packages, and since then update manager always says your system is uptodate, for the last month | 12:01 |
| kz | is /dev/sdb1/ff temp a valid path? | 12:01 |

| farchumbre | methylisocyanate:no new updates for a whole month? | 12:01 |
| methylisocyanate | haven't gotten any myself in a minute or so | 12:01 |

| midnajt | xD | 12:02 |
| Izlietne | yes | 12:02 |
| kz | do i need the "'s | 12:02 |
| midnajt | hippo: no problem any way there is still youtube | 12:03 |
| bullgard4 | ubuntistas: You do not "install" normally tgz files in Ubuntu. | 12:03 |
| methylisocyanate | maybe there was some kind of space war, and they're busy fighting aliens instead of updating | 12:03 |
| ubuntistas | why? | 12:03 |
| ToStItOs | Usb PCI cards is there a certain place where they need to be inserted | 12:03 |
| methylisocyanate | i couldn't tell you | 12:03 |
| |ns|nR8 | in a PCI slot ToStItOs | 12:03 |
| methylisocyanate | but i highly, highly doubt that removing some random packages would make the update manager just stop functioning | 12:04 |
| bullgard4 | ubuntistas: If you are going to talk to me in this crowded channel, please prepend your message with my nick. | 12:04 |
| ubuntistas | ok tell me why? | 12:04 |

| |ns|nR8 | Gamarok__, try sudo apt-get remove gnome | 12:06 |
| fccf | farchumbre: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 12:06 |
| Gamarok__ | !kde | farchumbre | 12:06 |

| try2free | sorry, i've got it wrong ip :D | 12:16 |
| try2free | now it's working | 12:16 |
| erUSUL | ToStItOs: and why do you think is becouse of that card ? | 12:16 |
| SnowKitty | @.< | 12:17 |
| ToStItOs | erUSUL when I removed the card 8.10 installed | 12:17 |
| try2free | The option _netdev is always recommended for cifs mounts in fstab. Option _netdev delays mounting until the network has been enabled. | 12:17 |

| try2free | thanks guys | 12:17 |

| SnowKitty | it lets you show off what song you are currently playing to people on your buddy list | 12:19 |
| ToStItOs | erUSUL I am guessing a hardware conflict | 12:19 |
| plastun | only one way? | 12:19 |
| plastun | what about update-alternatives? | 12:19 |
| hippo | SnowKitty: it's a little bit tricky ... but you could map the keycodes/key functions in Xmodmap and then use them under Linux. | 12:20 |
| Myrtti | plastun: should work | 12:20 |
| gordonjcp | bazhang: minor copy nit - that factoid has a run-on sentence. There should be an "and" after the first comma, or a full stop and new sentence. | 12:20 |

| ToStItOs | erUSUL not yet should play with it and find out where the problem is? | 12:21 |

| SnowKitty | eh, its not too important, i'm gonna get a new one when i can get some extra cash anyway, thisones all beatup | 12:21 |
| bazhang | ubuntistas, there is one in the repos, no need for external deb | 12:21 |

| erUSUL | ToStItOs: well all i can say is that they just work (tm) if there is no hardware problem | 12:21 |
| ubuntistas | bazhang i want the new one?> | 12:22 |
| kz | why would firefox just close whenever i start it up? i get "starting firefox" in the bottom panel, but then it just dissapears. | 12:22 |
| Myrtti | !latest | ubuntistas | 12:22 |
| ubottu | ubuntistas: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 12:22 |
| hoohaah | kz: try executing it from commandline to catch the stderr | 12:22 |
| bazhang | ubuntistas, then you are on your own; installing 3rd party stuff outside the repos is DIY | 12:22 |

| SnowKitty | i like audacious cause im too used to winamp and it's kind of a winamp clone lol | 12:30 |

| hippo | SnowKitty: In that case, there is nothing to do. | 12:31 |
| archman | How can I get info which exactly dvd rom I have in my laptop? | 12:31 |

| Rigongia | ToStItOs, i hope you don't have an ASRock Mobo | 12:32 |
| ToStItOs | Rigongia I have a OEM Compaq Presario mobo | 12:33 |
| SnowKitty | i just realized something >.> | 12:33 |
| SnowKitty | ive been using ubuntu on this rig for a few days now | 12:33 |
| hippo | SnowKitty: don't know about that plugin ... but you can see in the list where audacious is looking for plugins. | 12:34 |
| SnowKitty | and havent really touched my windows install much XD | 12:34 |
| kealc | SnowKitty: :P | 12:34 |
| ToStItOs | Rigongia: Its ancient 2000 | 12:34 |
| wereHamster | I did "update-rc.d -f [service] remove" but after a update apt-get added the service to the runlevels again and even started it. How can I tell apt-get to not mess with my runlevels? | 12:34 |
| Rigongia | pretty much like my old laptop (a Fujitsu-Siemens) | 12:34 |
| Rigongia | so ... what hardware is it conflicting with ? | 12:34 |

| SnowKitty | hippo: it's on this page http://audacious-media-player.org/plugins | 12:35 |
| ToStItOs | Rigongia the first card I bought I was getting a resource error saying conflicting with PCI slot #2 | 12:35 |
| Stowaway | i want to download everything at ; svn://anonsvn.mono-project.com/source/trunk/bitsharp | 12:36 |

| Stowaway | i had a look at a article. i jsut couldnt get it towrk for some reason | 12:36 |
| geirha | Stowaway: svn co svn://anonsvn.mono-project.com/source/trunk/bitsharp | 12:37 |

| Stowaway | ahuh! | 12:37 |
| Stowaway | i was trying copy and cp | 12:37 |
| Stowaway | no co | 12:37 |

| FloodBot3 | Stowaway: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:37 |
| geirha | Stowaway: co is short for checkout | 12:37 |
| hippo | SnowKitty: I see. And you want to install it ? | 12:38 |
| SnowKitty | yeah, it's in a .tar.gz archive | 12:38 |
| SnowKitty | and in that archive i think is a usr folder | 12:38 |
| SnowKitty | i have no idea how to use that | 12:38 |
| SnowKitty | lol | 12:38 |
| djdarkman | hello, can someone tell me how can I cleanly downgrade xorg & friends to the intrepid version? | 12:38 |
| Stowaway | thanks for that! cya later | 12:38 |
| hippo | SnowKitty : first you have to download it. | 12:39 |
| SnowKitty | got it | 12:39 |
| ToStItOs | Rigongia should just insert the card in another slot? | 12:39 |
| SnowKitty | oh wait, found another one | 12:39 |
| hippo | SnowKitty : what is it, a .tgz file ? | 12:39 |
| ToStItOs | Oh wait that slot maybe bad | 12:39 |
| Rigongia | honestly i don't know, i was still trying to figure out what the cause could be | 12:40 |
| ToStItOs | I'll monkey with it and find out | 12:40 |
| SnowKitty | itouch-control-0.1.1.tar.gz | 12:40 |
| Rigongia | especially after a goddamn agp controller out of standard made my ubuntu tell me there were errors on the filesystem while there weren't :) | 12:40 |
| hippo | SnowKitty: Do you know how to extract it ? It's an archive. | 12:41 |
| SnowKitty | yeah i know how to extract it, i just dunno how to install whats in it | 12:41 |
| kealc | what are you trying to get? | 12:42 |
| hippo | SnowKitty: is there a .so file in the archive ? | 12:42 |
| hoohaah | SnowKitty: there's usually a README in the tarball | 12:42 |
| SnowKitty | yeah im reading it | 12:42 |
| SnowKitty | it wants me to do some stuff in the terminal | 12:43 |
| SnowKitty | ill try it in a sec | 12:43 |
| hippo | SnowKitty: copy the .so file into /usr/lib/audacious/General/ | 12:43 |

| hippo | SnowKitty: That's where audacious looks for plugins. | 12:44 |
| Rigongia | SnowKitty, is there a way to use some sort of global shortcuts with audacious ? | 12:44 |
| hippo | SnowKitty: Then restart audacious and see if you can select that plugin . | 12:45 |
| Rigongia | ok, nevermind SnowKitty ... i found it myself toying around :) | 12:45 |
| SnowKitty | ah!!!! | 12:45 |
| Batch | hello | 12:45 |

| SnowKitty | turns out | 12:46 |
| SnowKitty | i had to disable that hotkeys thing | 12:46 |
| Rigongia | thanks hippo | 12:46 |
| SnowKitty | and enable the gnome shortcuts thing | 12:46 |
| SnowKitty | i guess they were conflicting | 12:46 |
| hippo | SnowKitty: it makes sense. | 12:46 |

| Dan | google it | 12:49 |
| Batch | I could stab eyes out right about now thats how frustrated i am, been up all night trying to fix it. | 12:49 |
| GW76 | if it doesn't work then maybe it can't play and only plays under windows | 12:50 |

| SnowKitty | maybe its just a setting or driver issue somewhere | 12:50 |

| Rigongia | the trouble with virtualbox might the video card | 12:53 |
| Rigongia | you could give a shot at vmware server (10 licenses for free upon a free registration on their website) | 12:53 |
| SnowKitty | it also has a nasty hardware bug (i looked it up, alot of people with this model of hp pavillion have the issues) that freezes up the trackpad/keyboard sometimes and will randomly kick the speakers back on when you have headphones in | 12:53 |
| edogzilla | gw76: i can launch the game but it wont let me log on or actually play | 12:53 |

| mmm4m5m | question please: hibernate and suspend with ubuntu 8.04 - is there a solution? I search but did not found. Some time ago I try to fix solution for ubuntu 7.10 - no luck. Any advices? Or to leave it as is (not working)? | 13:20 |
| zhoujingrui | yes | 13:20 |
| shadeslayer | devel0: i need to stop a upgrade and go back to the previous version of ubuntu | 13:20 |
| devel0 | oh | 13:20 |
| devel0 | there would only be the unorthodox way of doing that | 13:20 |
| devel0 | is there a particular reason of wanting to do that ? | 13:20 |
| patmat | thank you! tried that as root, it works! | 13:21 |
| shadeslayer | devel0: i installed 8.10 on this PC and then started the update to 9.04 without remembering that the intel card wont work properly | 13:21 |
| ewsubach | patmat: the thing I said worked, or did you mean someone else? | 13:21 |
| patmat | apache2ctl stop was it | 13:21 |
| patmat | i think it was.. did that as root | 13:22 |
| patmat | so what was the problem then? i already stopped apache2 | 13:22 |
| devel0 | shadeslayer, what intel card ? | 13:22 |
| patmat | just want to know what it was | 13:22 |
| devel0 | shadeslayer, be specific | 13:22 |
| shadeslayer | devel0: the ones which do not work on jaunty | 13:22 |
| ewsubach | patmat: cool. yeah, apache has changed a lot. the proper way of doing it is through apache2ctl, which works with httpd | 13:22 |

| ewsubach | patmat: if it says it is not running when you try that, then it has stopped, probably because someone or something else stopped it | 13:23 |
| mmm4m5m | anyone about hibernate and suspend with ubuntu 8.04 - it is not working. Is there a easy/hard fix available? | 13:24 |
| weatherkid | shadeslayer: are you sure there isn't a trick that will do it? | 13:24 |
| patmat | ewsubach but good to now, much thanks, you helped me alot! id never found that out | 13:24 |
| ewsubach | patmat: no problem, I'm glad it helped. :) | 13:25 |
| Pranka | mmm4m5m: i am currently having the same problem with 9.04, though i haven't really looked for a solution | 13:25 |

| shadeslayer | Dillizar: read the release notes for problems with the intel driver :) | 13:55 |
| Dillizar | lulzSauce_, i think you have the drivers | 13:55 |
| lulzSauce_ | It's a different story with ATi cards then it is with intel | 13:55 |
| _user_ | i installed metsaploit on ubuntu how to add shortcut to the gnome menu to run console plz ? | 13:55 |

| ghost_lines | hi all, how do I install x server on ubuntu 9.04 server? | 13:56 |
| Dillizar | _user_, ok apt-get install ccsm | 13:56 |
| lulzSauce_ | No, you see with ATi cards there are the free 3d drivers, and the propietary 3d drivers, and while the free ones work, to properly run most 3rd-party 3D programs you need the propietary ones. | 13:56 |
| shadeslayer | _user_: use alt+F2 and then type gnome-terminal to run a terminal | 13:56 |
| lulzSauce_ | Thanks though | 13:56 |
| lulzSauce_ | restarting | 13:56 |
| shadeslayer | ghost_lines: #ubuntu-server | 13:56 |
| _user_ | Dillizar, no i mean metasploit consoel ./msfconsole | 13:56 |
| ManDay | R4kk00n, it does. However I'm in need for more settings. For instance I want to customize keys for shortcuts. and i when i turn pages i want to see the center of the page per default, not the first line | 13:57 |
| Dillizar | _user_, it will appear :) i think :D or just alt+f2 and run it | 13:57 |
| ManDay | which evince doesnt allow | 13:57 |
| _user_ | Dillizar, ~/rubygems-0.9.0/metasploit/ ./msfconsole | 13:57 |

| ubottu | fx3: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea.

| earthen | spudCakePie, I was thinking i could just choose the one with the higest number but i'm not sure | 14:08 |
| spudCakePie | that would be my first thought | 14:09 |
| Vivatma | did ubuntu's apt get aria2 as backend downloader ?? | 14:09 |
| spudCakePie | what did your extensive googling tell you? | 14:09 |
| earthen | spudCakePie, so I would choose the "nvidia-glx-180 180.44-0ubuntu1" option | 14:09 |

| Pranka | technique: Alt+f2 then type nm-applet | 14:11 |
| earthen | spudCakePie, I did a upgrade to jaunty and now my video doesn't work | 14:11 |
| Pranka | technique: that's if you're using Gnome. | 14:11 |
| technique | yes im using gnome | 14:11 |
| Rigongia | vikingsraven : can you specify what problem you are having ? | 14:11 |
| JGodboutQt | Okay this is just embarrassing. I have a child window (output) which belongs to QDevelop, and somehow I moved it off screen, so now I can't see it at all. If I close it, or restart my computer, then when I open QDevelop again, and open the output window, it makes it off screen again. | 14:11 |
| spudCakePie | is it me or are graphics card drivers 50% of the problem here? | 14:11 |
| JGodboutQt | Any ideas? rofl | 14:11 |
| lulzSauce | OK, so it didn't work. I'm left using the default drivers which cannot work properly with blender. Great. | 14:12 |
| technique | Man you guys and or gals are legends thanks heaps | 14:12 |
| lulzSauce | Does anyone know how to install the proper 3D driver for an ATi Radeon X600 card? | 14:12 |
| Rigongia | well spud ... in the past i personally had my share of troubles with ATI, so i can see why most of the problems are video card drivers problems :P | 14:13 |
| R4kk00n | JGodboutQt, alt+f7 and then move it with the keyboard arrows? | 14:13 |
| vikingsraven | it wont let me change the resolution ive tried running envyng but it come up with an error 2 secs and ill get the error | 14:13 |
| lulzSauce | My 3D drivers worked fine before 9.04! I don't want to have to downgrade! | 14:13 |
| mmm4m5m | JGodboutQt: if gnome... try Alt-Tab, focus the window, then Alt+F7 and move using arrows (keyboard) | 14:13 |
| JGodboutQt | Haha cheera R4kk00n | 14:13 |
| vikingsraven | EnvyNG has detected that the headers for your kernel are missing and cannot be installed is what it comes up with | 14:13 |

| Rigongia | vikingsraven, can you post the output of uname -r ? | 14:14 |
| vikingsraven | ok ill have a go | 14:14 |
| vikingsraven | all ive got come up is 2.6.27-11-generic | 14:15 |
| erUSUL | vikingsraven: 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)' | 14:15 |
| vikingsraven | thanks | 14:15 |
| lulzSauce | do ATi drivers work at all with ubuntu 9.04? | 14:16 |
| vikingsraven | ok it says that package 2.6.27-1-generics os not available but is refered to by another package | 14:16 |
| Pranka | lulzSauce: im using ati and so far, it's working great for me. | 14:17 |
| lulzSauce | what if I tried installing the xorg-driver-fglrx for intrepid? Would that work? | 14:17 |
| lulzSauce | Pranka: But can you run any serious 3D software like blender? | 14:17 |
| Dam0 | lulzSauce: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI | 14:17 |
| Pranka | i dont think so, never tried it | 14:17 |
| lulzSauce | Dam0: There are no instructions for 9.04 there. | 14:18 |
| Pranka | Brb, switching to irssi. | 14:18 |
| lulzSauce | Dam0: Before 9.04 I clicked a button and it worked. | 14:18 |

| mmm4m5m | _user_: 'man gnome-terminal', search for 'working-directory' | 14:19 |
| lulzSauce | I mean, this kinda sucks. All I use ubuntu for is blender... | 14:20 |
| R4kk00n | lulzSauce, they do work, they just may not support your video card | 14:20 |

| lulzSauce | R4kk00n: Why was my video card supported before 9.04? | 14:20 |
| Dam0 | lulzSauce>: it still is | 14:20 |
| lulzSauce | Dam0: Except installing xorg-driver-fglrx, the only driver available for my card, crashes X | 14:21 |
| lulzSauce | other people say the card is not supported at all: | 14:21 |

| === sage is now known as dimension128 | ||
| mmm4m5m | lulzSauce: download deb package, dbl click and check what does it say (dependences, etc.). (or do temp change in your sources.list) | 14:24 |
| R4kk00n | lulzSauce, it is supported by catalyst 9.3, and that doesn't work with jaunty's xserver-xorg-core | 14:24 |
| Xcell | You can't use any 9.04 fglrx driver with your desktop because AMD/ATI has dropped fglrx support for your card. You will have to remove any fglrx driver and use the open source driver instead | 14:24 |
| Trentor | What is the official ubuntu offtopic channel called? | 14:25 |
| lulzSauce | Xcell: So, would using an older fglrx driver work? | 14:25 |
| R4kk00n | i'm trying to build xorg-core 1.5.2 from intrepid | 14:25 |
| Xcell | all i can say.. is try @ your own risk | 14:26 |
| lulzSauce | Why didn't they keep the option in hardware drivers to install the older driver? I mean, I think the majority of ATi users cannot do anything remotely graphically intense with 9.04... | 14:26 |
| Xcell | is it a lappy? | 14:26 |
| lulzSauce | nah, desktop | 14:26 |
| lulzSauce | anyway, I'll try installing the older driver | 14:27 |
| Xcell | did you try envyng and experiment with versions? | 14:27 |
| lulzSauce | Xcell, hold on, I'm trying this and rebooting. | 14:27 |

| shadeslayer | hi i need apt to connect directly to the internet but its using a proxy right now (of my uni)...im at home and have a direct connection | 14:40 |
| sebsebseb | wizo: sudo apt-get purge programname and delete any relivant hidden .folders in home. or folders for the program in other ones | 14:40 |
| dimension128 | sebsebseb: A program that uses wget to mirror a ubuntu repo. | 14:40 |

| wizo | for example /etc/apache2 ? | 14:41 |
| sebsebseb | munster: the 64bit versions are called amd in the iso name | 14:41 |
| sebsebseb | munster: since AMD invented 64bit originalley or whatever | 14:41 |
| shadeslayer | munster: amd means a 64 bit version best for RAM configs greater than 3 GB | 14:41 |
| jayadeva | I am using Ubuntu 9.04, sound is not enabled [or I don't know it]. can anybody help me? | 14:41 |

| sebsebseb | munster: no probs | 14:42 |
| wizo | so is there anyway for apt-get to remove apache2 along with all it's config files etc? | 14:42 |
| jayadeva | ubottu, how to do it? | 14:42 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about how to do it? | 14:42 |
| erUSUL | munster: the amd64 refers to the fact that is a 64 bit version | 14:42 |
| erUSUL | munster: intel cpu are compatible eith amd's 64 bit mode | 14:42 |
| shadeslayer | sebsebseb: yep...32 bits dont recognise greater than 3 GB RAM | 14:42 |
| sebsebseb | shadeslayer: they say need at least 4GB RAM for 64bit really, but saying AMD ISO's is for 4GB RAM or more hum | 14:43 |
| munster | thanks all, just making sure. so, i just burn the image to a dvd and make it bootable , insert it intot he new build and start the install? | 14:43 |
| erUSUL | munster: yes | 14:43 |
| shadeslayer | sebsebseb: yes.if you have RAM >= 4GB 64 bit is required to detect it | 14:43 |
| munster | Oh, i put 6G of ddr3 in this baby, using the arstechnica hot rod build | 14:44 |
| sebsebseb | shadeslayer: yeah 4GB RAM or more need 64bit I know that, but you made it sound like the 64bitAMDname ISO woudn't really work on less than 4GB RAM computer that has 64bit proccessor | 14:44 |
| shadeslayer | how do i tell apt not to use a proxy | 14:44 |
| Rigongia | wizo : sudo apt-get purge apache2 | 14:44 |
| munster | c an scale to 24G if I could ever find a reason | 14:44 |
| shadeslayer | sebsebseb: really?? i didnt mean to :P | 14:44 |
| dimension128 | wizo: you may want to look at the man page for dpkg I believe the purge option is what you want. | 14:44 |

| thiebaude1 | :) | 14:47 |
| sebsebseb | sysadmin: try running that Firefox with not many tabs open and like no Flash, and it would probably be ok | 14:48 |

| sebsebseb | thiebaude1: why? | 14:48 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: due to which im stuck without updates and packages :( | 14:48 |
| navatwo | I'm locked out of one of my workspaces, I can move applications there, but I cannot access them. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this? | 14:48 |
| thiebaude1 | sebsebseb: hi | 14:48 |
| dimension128 | <sysadmin> In my experience, it has always been an extension of some-kind that causes the problems in firefox. | 14:49 |
| sysadmin | anyone knows where can I get info on networking a windows based computer and a computer with ubuntu? | 14:49 |
| erUSUL | shadeslayer: maybe some env variable ?? | 14:49 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: ive tried editing it in /etc/apt/apt.conf...ive seen it there | 14:50 |
| Rigongia | it depends on what kind of infos you need, sysadmin | 14:50 |
| dimension128 | <sysadmin>: And try killing the process from the terminal if nothing else is working, " killall -9 firefox " should do the trick. | 14:51 |
| sysadmin | Ringongia, I have a network hdd with nas, and I want to share the info between computers | 14:51 |
| sysadmin | dimension128, ok, let me try that thanks for the tip | 14:51 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: any idea how to reset apt then?? | 14:51 |
| Rigongia | never had to do with nas | 14:51 |
| erUSUL | shadeslayer: no; if there is nothing in the apt configuration nor any env varable... | 14:52 |
| Rigongia | still if you need to know your box's ip address you can use the command prompt (shell under ubuntu) and type : ipconfig (respectively ifconfig) | 14:52 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: but i still cant update :( | 14:52 |
| sysadmin | dimension128, it didn't work. firefox has uninterruptible as status | 14:53 |
| === ikaros_ is now known as ikaros | ||
| sysadmin | Rigongia, I have a network hdd with nas, and I want to share the info between computers | 14:56 |
| erUSUL | shadeslayer: dunno what to check | 14:56 |
| dimension128 | <sysadmin> what does it say in the terminal after you issue the kill command? If you need to, you can add sudo to the beginning of that. if sudo killall -9 firefox wont do it, you have a problem that Im not experienced enough to help with. | 14:57 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto?action=show&redirect=AptGetHowto <-- at the bottom | 14:57 |
| sysadmin | dimension128, it doesn't return any message. It just do nothing even with sudo | 14:57 |
| Rigongia | sysadmin : do you know the ip address of the hdd ? | 14:58 |
| sysadmin | I think so | 14:59 |
| === Sylvain is now known as Guest55644 | ||
| sysadmin | Rigongia, I think so | 14:59 |
| erUSUL | shadeslayer: you checked that you do not have a http proxy declared in bash ? | 14:59 |
| Guest55644 | Juste un essai | 15:00 |
| sysadmin | Rigongia, well, I'm not so sure because I set up an IP address to configure some parameters. Is that the same address as accessing the drive to store files? | 15:00 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: how do i do that?? | 15:00 |
| erUSUL | shadeslayer: env | grep -i proxy | 15:00 |
| Rigongia | sysadmin : i think you can use samba (and yes, it is the same address) | 15:00 |
| erUSUL | shadeslayer: for example | 15:00 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: its declared there...how to remove?? | 15:01 |
| erUSUL | shadeslayer: unset variable_name | 15:01 |
| beehive | hey folks | 15:01 |
| Rigongia | hey beehive | 15:02 |
| beehive | got this blue stripe down my screen | 15:02 |

| shadeslayer | erUSUL: thanks alot...working now | 15:02 |
| bogeyman | hi, i'm on fresh ubuntu 9.10 installation - when i try to burn a data DVD in Brasero the process begins it shows the amount of data already written to the disc and then around 50% it starts to show 0% and 0MB and becomes corrupt | 15:02 |
| anom01y | how do I get crtl alt backspace to work in xubuntu ? | 15:02 |
| anom01y | there was a program I installed last time but I forgot the name of it, | 15:02 |
| mmm4m5m | question please: I have 4 installed packages with name "linux-image..." (also "linux-ubuntu-modules..."). Do I have to manually uninstall from time to time? | 15:02 |
| beehive | its only present in firefox | 15:02 |
| sebsebseb | anom01y: it got disabled by xorg look in release notes | 15:02 |
| sebsebseb | !notes | anom01y | 15:03 |
| ubottu | anom01y: Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) release notes can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes | 15:03 |
| Rigongia | you could setup a vnc over ssh (just for paranoia :) ) or you could use vino or any other remote desktop client | 15:03 |
| sebsebseb | Rigongia: that's not paranoia | 15:03 |
| sebsebseb | Rigongia: paranoia would be a VPM | 15:03 |
| n0dl | hello, I am trying to get X to display on my lcd tv which is connected via vga. Whenver I try to use the intel driver the monitor goes black and "No Signal" is displayed however whenever i try to startx the screen i get a No Signal error. However when I try using the vesa driver it X displays | 15:03 |
| sebsebseb | VPN | 15:03 |
| beehive | any ideas? | 15:03 |
| Rigongia | well ... an RSA encrypted connection is surely not careless :P | 15:03 |
| sysadmin | any idea where can I get started with it? | 15:04 |
| Mylisto | anyone in here ever used a sony mp3 player? | 15:04 |
| sysadmin | I'm kinda new to linux, so any GUI will be perfect for my purpose | 15:04 |
| Mylisto | I used to be able to add music to my 4gig mp3 player | 15:04 |
| Mylisto | now I cant | 15:04 |
| Rigongia | sudo apt-get install vino and then you toy around a little (never really used it, so i can't be more helpful than this for now) | 15:04 |
| sysadmin | Rigongia, is vino secure enough? | 15:05 |
| white-knight | howzit ppepz | 15:05 |
| Rigongia | honestly, i can't bet on it | 15:05 |
| Rigongia | also because i'm not sure Windows remote-desktop server supports encryption | 15:06 |
| sysadmin | I see | 15:06 |
| bogeyman | hi, i'm on fresh ubuntu 9.10 installation - when i try to burn a data DVD in Brasero the process begins it shows the amount of data already written to the disc and then around 50% it starts to show 0% and 0MB and becomes corrupt - does anyone have similar problems with brasero? | 15:06 |
| Rigongia | so if you're on a LAN it is secure enough, otherwise i'd think about tunnelling it over ssh | 15:06 |
| sysadmin | ok, I think I would prefer to learn on ssh | 15:06 |
| white-knight | any one i need help connecting to irc network za.shadowfire.org on xchat | 15:06 |
| sysadmin | do you know any tutorial that might help me get the basics? | 15:07 |
| jrib | sysadmin: basics of what? | 15:07 |
| erUSUL | white-knight: Crtl + S add/eddit an entry for the server you want | 15:07 |

| djiezes | Hi, I need some help with remote desktop in ubuntu (Vinagre). Both desktop pc's are in my own home network. I want to connect from my desktop pc (wired connection) to another one (wireless), but to no avail. I don't even get the chance to login with the password protection. I tried changing the port (from 5900 to 46367), set some portforwarding rules, but all to no avail. Can anyone help me or guide me through it? | 15:08 |

| bogeyman | oh, sorry - 9.04 | 15:09 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: now it timed out :( | 15:09 |
| erUSUL | shadeslayer: problem in the server end probably or maybe you indeed need a http proxy where you are | 15:09 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: definetly not :)...i didnt use a proxy till 5 days ago from the same connection | 15:09 |
| axisys | is there any tool available that can trigger a job when new file added to a dir ? | 15:10 |
| shadeslayer | erUSUL: plus i would have been in #ubuntu-proxy-users too ;) | 15:10 |
| erUSUL | shadeslayer: then is a problem with the server... try changing mirrors | 15:10 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process.

| Slart | necroforest: I would say the "target audience".. ubuntu is more about making a distro for everyday people.. debian feels more like a "teach people the right way"-distro =) | 15:45 |

| tyranos | 9.04 | 16:16 |
| dan67 | question: If I install another motherboard in a computer that runs Ubuntu. Do I need to do anything special to the OS to prepare it for that? | 16:16 |
| Kalmi_ | whatvn, or have a look at mplayer's manpage | 16:17 |
| Wixicy | tyranos, im not sure then. only used 8.10 myself | 16:17 |
| Gourlis | Kalmi_, I use for 1st choice Windows Vista with 130GB for University etc.. And 2nd choice Ubuntu with 30GB space. I have 2GB RAM. What do you suggest ? | 16:17 |

| hoohaah | Gourlis: i bet she comes cheap | 16:18 |
| hoohaah | Gourlis: like, free even | 16:18 |
| Kalmi_ | Gourlis, I would say that 2 Gb is anough and you don't need a swap partition... unless you do some memory intensive stuff.... | 16:18 |
| Gourlis | hoohaah, thanks to internet world ;D | 16:19 |
| Gourlis | Kalmi_, am better now thanks dude. | 16:19 |
| hoohaah | oh, mail order gf | 16:19 |

| Gourlis | whatvn, an easy way ? :P | 16:22 |
| Kalmi_ | Wixicy, any line that begins with a "#" is commented out and is not interpreted by dnsmasq.... | 16:22 |
| _Ranakah | windows is bug | 16:22 |
| Kalmi_ | Wixicy, uncommenting means removing that "#" | 16:22 |
| whatvn | hoohaah: fine, not perfectly fine | 16:22 |
| Wixicy | Ohh | 16:22 |
| whatvn | Gourlis: no easy way | 16:22 |

| whatvn | Gourlis: but you must you fdisk to modify your current partition, create new one, re-format and make swap partition. but you still dont need swap until you use your computer as a server. | 16:27 |
| midnajt | hey I have 2 hard drives both are NTFS (on windows) is that good on ubuntu | 16:27 |

| bryanb | Hey everyone... I am trying to dual boot Ubuntu and windows XP on my laptop's SATA drive... I was able to install windows XP on the SATA after changing a setting in the BIOS... but when I go to install install ubuntu and I notice that the partition editor does not recognize any of the partitions I have set up. | 16:27 |
| Kalmi_ | !fstab |try2free | 16:28 |

| ska | I just installed Ubuntu on a eeepc 901, using the LPIA iso. It wont let me in as Sudo, nor allow main user to modify anything.. | 16:28 |
| lupine_85 | ed_debian: not particularly. if you're into swap, you should install more ram or not cache so much | 16:28 |
| whatvn | lupine_85: I faced with that problem before, Oracle running on RHEL. | 16:28 |

| ed_debian | midnajt, It depends what you're trying to do with these harddrives. Generally speaking ext3 is a better file-system. What are you trying to do? | 16:30 |
| racecar56 | ext4 > ext3 | 16:30 |
| lupine_85 | whatvn: it's good if it stop the oom-killer kicking in. otherwise, it's no better than on-disc cache, and often worse | 16:30 |

| ed_debian | Kalmi_, ext3 doesn't fragment | 16:32 |

| whatvn | lupine_85: did you use hugepage? | 16:33 |
| hoohaah | ed_debian: it's the degree of fragmentation | 16:33 |

| Wixicy | Kalmi_, dnsmasq: bad option at line 125 of /etc/dnsmasq.conf | 16:38 |
| racecar56 | coz_, more success, old computers. =D | 16:38 |

| coz_ | racecar56, understood :) | 16:38 |
| hoohaah | ed_debian: nothing on it on ext4 | 16:38 |
| racecar56 | coz_, and it has an intel vid card :P (those are terrible) | 16:39 |
| Wixicy | Kalmi_, do I have to set up the conf file after I have uncommented or is it doing it itself | 16:39 |
| Kalmi_ | Wixicy, you messed something up at line 125... it probably the word at the begging of th line... | 16:39 |
| racecar56 | coz_, it cant do 3D very nicely... | 16:39 |
| racecar56 | coz_, even 3D things from '99 | 16:39 |
| coz_ | racecar56, oh yeah I really understand that's has to be a pain at times | 16:39 |
| racecar56 | coz_, but however i have some things from '98 and they are SOMEWHAT 3D, and it works without lag | 16:39 |
| Wixicy | Kalmi_, cause after a purge reinstall of dnsmasq i just removed the commenting and didnt touch anything else in the conf file | 16:39 |
| racecar56 | coz_, O_o | 16:39 |
| coz_ | racecar56, :) | 16:40 |

| Wixicy | Kalmi_ http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/184360/ | 16:40 |

| Kalmi_ | Wixicy, you probably removed two charcters (instead of one) or something like that.... | 16:41 |

| racecar56 | coz_, this comp is really historical, although not my first | 16:42 |
| Kalmi_ | Wixicy, use your head... | 16:42 |
| racecar56 | coz_, it came with win xp | 16:42 |
| Wixicy | Kalmi_, sorry. I am quite new to "advanced computing" | 16:43 |
| coz_ | racecar56, oh ok the upgrade of ram probably made a huge difference | 16:43 |
| racecar56 | coz_, i didnt know about ubuntu before i upgraded the ram | 16:43 |
| Kalmi_ | Wixicy, hehe... dnsmasq is "advanced computing" now :) | 16:43 |

| ed_debian | ska, but you have to use the vidsudo program to do it (and you need be root) | 16:52 |
| Wixicy | Alright, ive heard 9.04 is buggy. What do you guys recommend using for a laptop. 8.10 or 9.04? | 16:52 |
| jrib | Wixicy: 9.04... | 16:52 |
| racecar56 | Wixicy, 9.04 | 16:52 |
| racecar56 | Wixicy, 8.10 sucks compared to 9.04 | 16:52 |
| ska | ed_debian: not possible if I don't have any sudo access. I can edit the sudoers file by hand | 16:52 |
| racecar56 | Wixicy, 8.10 is slowmo | 16:52 |
| jrib | Wixicy: only reason not to use the latest stable release is if you go with LTS imo | 16:52 |
| Wixicy | racecar56, the laptop isn that powerful. just 512MB ram | 16:53 |
| ska | jrib: recovery mode doesn't work if you dont have sudo | 16:53 |

| pancho | can someone help me with my sound issue? | 17:13 |
| ed_debian | ska, You should have a line for each of your users that want to sudo in your sudoers file. Using a group is sort of a workaround. Having these lines in sudoers is the correct way. | 17:13 |
| ed_debian | example: ska ALL=(ALL) ALL | 17:14 |

| bullgard4 | Does Empathy 2.26.1 produce sound events by default or not? | 17:21 |

| ubottu | icewm (source: icewm): wonderful Win95-OS/2-Motif-like window manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.37-1ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 663 kB, installed size 1716 kB | 17:21 |
| daz3d | fluxbox ftw! | 17:22 |
| ed_debian | ska, apt-cache I believe shows you what's in your system's package manager cache. Not what's in the repos? | 17:22 |
| Slart | ed_debian: same with synaptic.. they both search the metadata for the packages | 17:23 |
| Slart | ed_debian: of course, neither knows what is in the repos.. they only have an old snapshot of the repo contents | 17:23 |

| flintwingel | UUB1: sorry, I'm out of ideas... the only time I've seen ubuntu not use the full screen on a laptop xrandr has been able to fix it. Does this condition survive a reboot? Can you disable the TV output in the PC Bios? | 17:56 |
| Slart | RaceCondition: but I'm not sure about this.. if you can make dd do the copying it should be alright | 17:56 |
| RaceCondition | Slart: dd will just stop when it's run out of source bytes, right? so I'll just have to resize partitions to fill up the whole HD afterwards, no? | 17:56 |
| Slart | RaceCondition: that sounds like it might work, yes | 17:57 |
| KiRiLoS | Slart, any other ideas ? | 17:57 |
| RaceCondition | although I could use ddrecover as well, was I sure it handles OS X partition tables well... | 17:57 |

| RaceCondition | what about something a bit larger that I could use to make a copy of a HD? | 18:01 |
| Frijolie | unop, would that loop through each file in the folder? | 18:01 |

| KiRiLoS | Slart, it seems that i managed to remove the most packages that used to give me th errors,i only got 2 now : kdenlive-data | 18:01 |
| KiRiLoS | libmlt++1 | 18:01 |
| unop | Frijolie, well, in that case it would work on all .txt files .. so change the glob appropriately for your use case. | 18:01 |

| Rigongia | Frijolie : it uses regular expressions and operates on all filenames that match | 18:02 |
| Slart | KiRiLoS: ok.. those couldn't be removed? | 18:02 |
| Frijolie | ah, reg ex ...I don't know much about it | 18:02 |
| KiRiLoS | Slart, nope,errors... | 18:02 |
| Frijolie | well lemme try it and see | 18:02 |
| Slart | KiRiLoS: pastebin? | 18:02 |
| Slart | !paste | KiRiLoS | 18:02 |
| ubottu | KiRiLoS: 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) | 18:02 |
| Frijolie | if it's that easy I'll feel stupid | 18:02 |
| unop | Frijolie, Rigongia -- well, rename is not limited to regular expressions .. any perl code will work | 18:03 |
| petsounds | hello, what is software for recovery deleted file in ubuntu? thank you | 18:03 |
| jrib | petsounds: how did you delete it? | 18:03 |
| zealiod | an any one recommend a decent open source ICAP server that works well with Squid? | 18:03 |
| Slart | petsounds: search in synaptic for "recovery".. there are many | 18:03 |
| KiRiLoS | Slart, http://paste.ubuntu.com/184410/ | 18:03 |
| Frijolie | unop, that will work in a terminal..or as part of a script? | 18:03 |
| petsounds | jrib : just press delete key | 18:03 |
| unop | Frijolie, anything that works at the terminal - should work in a script, right? | 18:03 |
| sysdoc | petsounds, photorec | 18:04 |
| jefinc | !bluefish | 18:04 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about bluefish | 18:04 |
| jrib | petsounds: it should be in your trash then | 18:04 |
| Rigongia | so they say, unop :P | 18:04 |
| Frijolie | unop, yeah I guess that's right | 18:04 |
| Guest31019 | hi | 18:04 |
| KiRiLoS | Slart, btw i get this,if it helps : http://paste.ubuntu.com/184411/ | 18:04 |
| petsounds | sysdoc : can i recovery audio file with photorec? | 18:05 |
| Rigongia | where should i ask about a recording problem with Skype ? | 18:05 |
| unop | Frijolie, another way. rename '$_ = substr $_, 6 ' *.txt | 18:05 |
| Slart | KiRiLoS: ah.. do that.. or that errors out too? | 18:05 |
| petsounds | jrib : i already clean the trash bin | 18:05 |
| Frijolie | unop, that first one worked! perfect! Thanks | 18:05 |
| jrib | petsounds: then use your backups | 18:05 |
| KiRiLoS | Slart, errors too,do you want me to pastebin the error ? | 18:05 |
| jrib | !recover > petsounds | 18:05 |
| ubottu | petsounds, please see my private message | 18:05 |
| Frijolie | unop, now if you have more than one file extension? | 18:05 |
| Slart | KiRiLoS: sure | 18:05 |
| Frijolie | unop, run it twice and change the ext? or can you append the regex? | 18:06 |
| KiRiLoS | Slart, http://paste.ubuntu.com/184413/ | 18:06 |
| unop | Frijolie, you can use * to match all files(directories included) or do something like. rename '...' *.{txt,avi,mpg} # to match .txt, .avi and .mpg | 18:06 |
| Slart | KiRiLoS: you could try dpkg -r --force-all <packagename> I'm not sure if it will work though | 18:06 |
| Frijolie | unop, nice! thanks...I guess I've got the next thing for study (reg ex) | 18:07 |
| KiRiLoS | Slart, i'll give it a shot | 18:07 |
| Frijolie | I didn't know that it was so powerful | 18:07 |
| Frijolie | I have started to do it manually and I was killing myself | 18:07 |
| unop | Frijolie, that last part i.e. globs are not regexes tho .. they're shell patterns | 18:07 |
| KiRiLoS | Slart, same old error :P | 18:07 |
| petsounds | thanks | 18:07 |
| Slart | KiRiLoS: bah..try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall kdenlive" | 18:08 |
| Rigongia | nevertheless shell patterns and regex, if correctly used, can be the programmer's equivalent of an atomic bomb :) | 18:08 |
| Slart | KiRiLoS: perhaps it likes installing better than it likes uninstalling | 18:08 |
| Frijolie | unop, ah, the terms are gonna kill me | 18:08 |
| KiRiLoS | Slart, http://paste.ubuntu.com/184416/ unfortunately not :( | 18:09 |
| jjibn | somebody know if I can't enter into the Ubuntu how can I change the file in the ubuntu | 18:09 |
| sysdoc | petsounds, yea photorec claims it can recover 180 file types of file extensions | 18:09 |
| Pafs321 | hi! did you guys try kernelcheck?? i'm on jaunty and i'm using kernelcheck lumen, is that a good idea? | 18:10 |
| Frijolie | unop, how could you add a string on the end of the file name (just before the file ext)? | 18:10 |
| Slart | KiRiLoS: ah.. but now it's two new packages | 18:10 |
| petsounds | thanks | 18:10 |

| Pafs321 | Slart: my webcam stopped working after i updated my kernel from 2.6.28-11 to 2.6.28-12, so i found some stuff about it here http://ubuntu-ky.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=885795&page=7 | 18:22 |
| Slart | KiRiLoS: hmm.. I'm out of ideas then.. a couple of rounds of dpkg -r, apt-get usually gets it right | 18:22 |
| anom01y | in adept_manager, you could add more filters to narrow your search | 18:22 |
| sysdoc | Slart, Are you available for a convo on pcopy? | 18:22 |
| anom01y | not in synaptic though | 18:22 |
| Slart | sysdoc: never used it, sorry.. | 18:22 |
| luca | ok but how do i do that? (i'm a n00b) | 18:22 |
| sysdoc | ack | 18:22 |
| Rigongia | luca : give me a second to check the exact procedure :) | 18:23 |
| luca | thank you very much | 18:23 |
| sysdoc | Has anyone used pcopy as a method of cloning a disk? | 18:23 |
| Slart | Pafs321: and both those kernel flavours support your webcam? | 18:23 |
| sere | sere hi | 18:24 |
| Rigongia | Luca : ok, you go to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ and cut & past the content of the /var/log/xorg.0.log file then you post here the address it gives you as an answer and everybody can look at your xorg.0.log | 18:24 |
| Slart | Pafs321: if they do I suggest going with the kernelcheck stable one | 18:25 |
| Malicia | hi all | 18:25 |
| Pafs321 | Slart: the first one does, but for some reason it stopped working on the 2.6.28-12, i reinstalled the webcam drivers, but instead of working as the last time, it had a green screen... | 18:25 |
| Slart | Pafs321: that's not a recommendation though.. I'd still recommend staying with the current default kernel.. that's what is tested and supported... but chosing between two evils | 18:26 |
| Pafs321 | Slart: that's what i thought, but i looked at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=618563 | 18:26 |
| flintwingel | sysdoc: pcopy looks a bit old - I'd be worried about its supporting the latest hardware or filesystems - I have used partimage for this task using a clonezilla boot CD | 18:26 |
| luca | damn I really got to go now Rigongia, I'm really sorry, but thank for your help! | 18:26 |

| sere | dir | 18:27 |
| Pafs321 | Slart: yeah i think the same, i don't wanna go for a new version, i wanna keep this one, but, if i don't have my webcam working, i'd have to go back to vista... so.. i think i have to take that risk | 18:27 |

| xyz-nisse | i just installed ubuntu 9, then i installed the new Amarok, but it wont play my Mp3? why? never had truble playing mp3 in amarok in ubuntu 8 | 18:27 |
| chocobanana | xyz-nisse: you may need to also install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package | 18:29 |
| sysdoc | flintwingel, I too looked at partimage but have a limitation because of the amount of available space. As I understand partimage creates an image file that I would then have to restore to the new drive. I was looking to just clone the existing ubuntu install to a new drive. | 18:29 |
| sere | sup | 18:29 |

| burvowski | When I did a default Ubuntu installation and had it choose all settings for me on my Asus 1000HE netbook with a 160 gig hard drive and 2 gigs of ram, it gave me 5.75 gigs for my swap partition. Is that overkill? | 18:54 |
| |newbie| | jrib: ok | 18:54 |
| sveakex | TannerS: or save you essay, install ubuntu, and continue, installing ubuntu should not take more than 30 minutes | 18:55 |
| Psychonaut | hi all | 18:55 |
| xp-killer_ | chocobanana: i still cant see the videos | 18:55 |
| chocobanana | burvowski: totally overkill. 1Gb is enough | 18:55 |
| Rigongia | ok, on the terminal thing just type : cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -i name | 18:55 |
| Malicia | Mylesmadness, you should install Ndiswrapper | 18:55 |
| Rigongia | and write here what the pc shows, qazavul | 18:55 |

| Psychonaut | how can i install python and perl support for xchat ?? | 18:56 |
| chocobanana | burvowski: if you just use suspend, 1Gb is enough. For suspend, I'm not sure if it uses the swap file... | 18:56 |

| chocobanana | burvowski: because there's this rule of making a swap file 2.5x the amount of RAM you have | 18:57 |

| sveakex | odinsbane: skype | 18:59 |
| chocobanana | burvowski: well, I'm not sure, if it would happen to me, I would just reinstall and manually partition. By I suggest that you determine the if Ubuntu stores the hibernation image in the swap partition and what's the recommended size. Maybe opening or searching a thread in the forums may be a good idea... | 18:59 |

| Asterix | rigongia, one thing I'm not sure about is does the hd0 and hd1 in grub match up with the sda and sdb drive labeling in gpartd or does that change depending on which drive is set to be first in the bios? | 19:56 |

| FloridaGuy | whats the differencebetween on the kernel linux-generic and linux-i386 | 20:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | manikanta, your question is too broad - gftp is a good gui ftp client, man ftp if you want cli, proftpd is a good ftp server - good luck | 20:04 |
| usser | mmm4m5m, well is the actual device present on the motherboard? | 20:04 |

| === ottoshmidt_ is now known as ottoshmidt | ||
| mmm4m5m | usser: yes, 2 days back with ubuntu 7.10 it was working fine | 20:04 |
| jrib | !minimal | rockyrock | 20:04 |
| ubottu | rockyrock: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 20:05 |
| Rigongia | Asterix : i suggest editing the kernel line of one of your grub entries modifying the "root=UUID=something" part into "root=/dev/sdaX" where X is the number of your root partition on the 1st hard drive | 20:05 |
| manikanta | what is the use of ftp server | 20:05 |
| usser | mmm4m5m, is pc speaker even there in alsamixer? | 20:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | manikanta, ftp is a client-server setup - a client talks to a server (different machine) and requests files from it. | 20:05 |
| mapas | Hi all I just did a fresh install of ubuntu 9.04 with a partition for it and one for vista, grub was fine at first then a 2nd reboot and it loads only ubuntu | 20:05 |
| mmm4m5m | usser: no, I told - I can't find it - searcher for it to see is it mute or not | 20:05 |
| whatvn | xd4: I think your problem is not because scripts you added before | 20:06 |
| flintwingel | rockyrock: you mught be better of with a lightweight ubuntu based distro like crunchbang http://crunchbanglinux.org/ | 20:06 |

| xd4 | <whatvn> all the apps in the autostart i am familiar with, | 20:09 |

| racecar56 | rockyrock, :\ | 20:10 |
| usser | rockyrock, memory is not the issue in my case, its eeepc 701, so the cpu kinda sucks so i went with debian | 20:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | dassouki, sudoers if for about adding permission for a user to run a particular file as root - what are you trying to do? allow anyone to shutdown? | 20:11 |
| Rigongia | manikanta : it is an existing ftp server | 20:11 |
| dassouki | ZykoticK9: no allow a user to sudo apt-get install :D i don't want to do it from root | 20:11 |
| Rigongia | manikanta : you can use "anonymous" as username and a valid e-mail address as your password | 20:11 |
| jrib | dassouki: well whoever installed it messed with the default install | 20:11 |
| flintwingel | rockyrock: debian would be a good choice for limited hardware - it assumes you know hat you want rather than preselecting a arange of apps for you | 20:11 |

| racecar56 | im trying to make my own distribution and when i run xdm it prints nothing and the login dosen't come up... what's wrong? its a remaster of ubuntu | 20:20 |
| rockyrock | usser: I feel like my laptop is useless :( | 20:20 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, welcome to the club | 20:20 |
| Ecner | i cant find my cdrom drive in ubuntu. can anyone help me find it? | 20:20 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, mine is much more modern, but it still SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS | 20:20 |
| rockyrock | recon1025: do you have an old machine? | 20:20 |
| del_diablo | istvan, i dunno. If you got your python back then just starting them could work | 20:20 |
| CyberGabber | mmm4m5m: Did you do anything with file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist ? | 20:20 |
| rockyrock | racecar56: what do you have? | 20:20 |
| ads__ | hi i have a video documentary that has no extension.. what video tools can i use to find out the container format and codec please | 20:21 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, hp pavilion dv9000 cto | 20:21 |
| xd4 | <whatvn> doing a grep on sleep 60 right now, it may take some time i guess | 20:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | dassouki, so there are some users on the system. when you said it was your 'host' you mean this is some sort of remote machine hosted on a provider somewhere? | 20:21 |
| istvan | can i see a log of the apt-get operations? | 20:21 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, it sucks so bad | 20:21 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, really | 20:21 |
| darlek | Ecner: from terminal does it show up in /media? | 20:21 |
| Drk | Hi, i have a laptop that i need to repair, but my USB'ed Jaunty wont recognize the broadcom chipset, and it won't load up the needed drivers, will madwifi help? | 20:21 |
| mathijs175 | zyko, should i use the the save to x configuration button? | 20:21 |
| rockyrock | racecar56: why? | 20:21 |
| h2otox | hello, smbtree shows all computers and shares in my workgroup but when i'm trying to see the same within nautilus in "Network" > "Windows Network" nothing is displayed how can that issue be solved? | 20:21 |
| dassouki | ZykoticK9: yes linode | 20:21 |
| Drk | !madwifi | 20:21 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, slowest comp ever, i wanted a pentium III after seeing it | 20:21 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 20:21 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, thats how bad it was | 20:21 |
| del_diablo | istvan, i wish i knew <.< Just reinstalling python and in worst case a system reboot should be magical | 20:21 |
| ads__ | what video tools can i use to find out the container format and codec please of a vidoe file | 20:21 |
| darlek | Drk, madwifi should help. You'll need to search for the broadcom compatible drivers | 20:21 |
| Ecner | darlek: goat@goat:/media$ ls --- cdrom cdrom0 | 20:22 |
| rockyrock | racecar56: what CPU does it have? | 20:22 |
| usser | rockyrock, well actually it might even run acceptably, with slashdot youtube and a couple of other tabs open im a little over 256 right now. i also have a whole bunch of other programs that i could really do without if i had to, like wicd, gnome-power-manager | 20:22 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, intel centrino dou | 20:22 |
| istvan | does anyone know how to see the log of what apps were removed with apt-get? | 20:22 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, *duo | 20:22 |
| whatvn | good cpu :p | 20:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | dassouki, sorry man - perhaps there security has removed admin access? this isn't a situation i feel comfortable with anymore - best of luck (but every default Ubuntu should have an admin group - so something is VERY strange there) | 20:22 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, it sucks for me | 20:22 |
| Rigongia | Ecner : try "ls -lah cdrom" in /media | 20:22 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, bad, really bad | 20:22 |
| rockyrock | racecar56: very good CPU! | 20:22 |
| dassouki | ZykoticK9: thanks :D | 20:22 |
| Ecner | darlek: it shows as empty even when a cd is in | 20:22 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, are you kidding, i hope so | 20:22 |
| flintwingel | racecar56: you're doing it wrong then ;) | 20:23 |
| ads__ | any video tools to find out container format and codec please? | 20:23 |
| racecar56 | flintwingel, it's slow on everything, serious | 20:23 |
| racecar56 | flintwingel, it may not be the cpu's fault, but it shure is slow | 20:23 |
| Josef1 | hi | 20:23 |
| racecar56 | flintwingel, i seriously wanted a pentium III after i used it | 20:23 |
| Ecner | Rigongia: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2009-03-15 01:20 cdrom -> cdrom0 | 20:23 |
| Ecner | but its empty? :( | 20:23 |
| mmm4m5m | CyberGabber: 'lsmod' show pcspkr is loaded. I have few blacklisted, but it is the default (evbug, usbmouse, usbkbd, eepro100, de4x5, eth1394, snd_intel8x0m, i2c_i801, prism54, bcm43xx, garmin_gps, asus_acpi) | 20:23 |
| koichirose | is somebody else having problem with flash on firefox and ubuntu 9.04 64bit? | 20:24 |
| mikepark | ads_: you don't know the file extension, is that correct? | 20:24 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, it's so bad a pentium III is faster | 20:24 |
| darlek | Ecner, probably hasn't mounted, check your /etc/fstab file and post it to pastebin (ie cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit). If you don't have pastebinit installed, sudo apt-get pastebinit | 20:24 |
| h2otox | can nobody help me? | 20:24 |
| flintwingel | racecar56: I run ubuntu on a Dell d600 1.6GHz pentium M w. 512MB ram and its fine | 20:24 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, at least for me, it may not even be the cpu's fault, though | 20:24 |
| racecar56 | flintwingel, i have a similar comp | 20:24 |
| istvan | i don't seem to have var/log/aptitude | 20:24 |
| ads__ | mikepark, yea how can i probe for codecs | 20:25 |
| tanner2007 | guysi just install a second ubuntu partiton but everytime it loads it freezez the bar and m keyboards lights keep flashing | 20:25 |
| racecar56 | flintwingel, it's a compaq sr1020nx 1.8ghz celeron w 1gb ram (it came with 512m however) and it's pretty fine too | 20:25 |
| ads__ | mikepark, codec* | 20:25 |
| darlek | Ecner,then post the pastebin URL here | 20:25 |
| racecar56 | flintwingel, just it's got a pretty weak gfx card | 20:25 |
| racecar56 | flintwingel, it still works :P | 20:25 |
| tanner2007 | wat do ido | 20:25 |
| mikepark | ads_: try file <filename> in terminal, it should at least tell you the type i believe | 20:25 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, it's 2gb ram, some hitachi hard drive | 20:25 |
| CyberGabber | mmm4m5m: If you didn't blacklist pcspkr , i'm out of ideas. | 20:26 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, im not shure if it's sata or ide, the connector is -WEIRD- | 20:26 |
| istvan | ahha, i found a log!~ | 20:26 |
| ads__ | mikepark, it doesnt only states data (tried that already) | 20:26 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, it came with vista which laaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..........aaaaaagged | 20:26 |
| rockyrock | racecar56: oh god, your laptop is great man!!!!! | 20:26 |
| istvan | however if i do cat dpkg.log it is to long for my screen | 20:26 |
| scubidoo | hi all | 20:26 |
| ads__ | mikepark, i need an analyser of some sort to probe the file for container and codec info | 20:26 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, it sucks! | 20:26 |
| istvan | how do i scroll up in recovery terminal? | 20:26 |
| koichirose | is somebody else having problem with flash on firefox and ubuntu 9.04 64bit? | 20:26 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, this celeron is even better! | 20:26 |
| racecar56 | flintwingel, oops i mean 2.8ghz | 20:26 |
| scubidoo | any one use a soundgraph vfd on ubuntu????? | 20:27 |
| rockyrock | racecar56: oh common you are too demanding, it's not the laptop it's you dude ;) | 20:27 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, =_= | 20:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | koichirose, i've used flash on linux for years on server different distros on both 32 & 64 bit archs - it has always been a "bit" buggy, even now under 64 9.04 i have occasional problem with flash and need to close all firefox windows before it will work again - but Most of the time it work, and i can live with the "bugs" | 20:27 |
| koichirose | ZykoticK9: same problem here, I hate closing firefox completely every once in a while | 20:27 |

| del_diablo | How do i enable "CPU frequency control"? | 20:28 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, look, a long time ago (not REALLY long, but not short) probably around ~2003 i had a comp, it was my first, it ran windows 98 se (i didnt know about linux) and it ran even better than this horrible laptop | 20:28 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, the comp itself was probably from ~1999 | 20:28 |
| Slart | koichirose: well.. problems and problems.. but it was actually more stable using the flash version I downloaded from adobe than with the one in the repos now | 20:28 |
| Slart | koichirose: but it's still usable... I haven't switched back | 20:28 |
| koichirose | I am using the one from adobe | 20:28 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, it was assembled by someone from buches of other computer parts | 20:28 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, and IT ran better than this horrific laptop | 20:29 |
| istvan | i'm looking at system logs from the comman dline ctrl f12 but i can't scroll up, is there a solution? | 20:29 |
| Slart | koichirose: I used an earlier version from adobe.. not the one that is in the repos now | 20:29 |
| Rigongia | koichirose : maybe you should consider using the 32-bit version with nspluginwrapper | 20:29 |
| racecar56 | rockyrock, i also (probable ~2006) had a hp pavilion dv8000 and it ran awesome, too | 20:29 |
| Slart | istvan: I don't think you can scroll up in a TTY | 20:29 |
| koichirose | Rigongia: how? | 20:29 |
| Slart | istvan: use less,more,most or similar to get a more ... friendly output | 20:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | racecar56, you can't compare Win98 to any linux distro except maybe DSL type minimal things. Win 98 is VERY basic - the internet was only just beginning to arive on the desktop at that time. | 20:29 |
| tanner2007 | can anyone help me | 20:29 |
| Flare183 | istvan: Try piping the result to less | 20:30 |
| Noccy | Hi all :) I'm browsing around at http://www.tjnet.com/software/index.htm to find drivers for my USB-to-Phone adapter that refuses to work. However, the download link is.. well missing :p | 20:30 |
| istvan | Slart: how do I do that? | 20:30 |
| Flare183 | !ask | tanner2007 | 20:30 |
| ubottu | tanner2007: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 20:30 |
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, my laptop is horrific on the console too | 20:30 |
| Noccy | Has anyone here been successful in getting a Tiger jet device working in ubuntu? | 20:30 |
| Slart | istvan: run your command and add | less or | more or | most | 20:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | racecar56, how much memory? | 20:30 |
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, anyway the comp with 98 i had was non-internet | 20:30 |
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, laptop? | 20:30 |
| istvan | so cat /var/log/dpkg/log | less | 20:30 |
| Spyderco | How do you mount *.isz files ? | 20:30 |
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, idk what the 98 had | 20:30 |
| Slart | istvan: so instead of lshw you run lshw | less | 20:30 |
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, i was a _NOOB_ with comps back then | 20:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | racecar56, i mean on the current system | 20:30 |
| sveakex | tanner2007: are you the same tanner as before? | 20:30 |

| tanner2007 | yes | 20:31 |

| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, it's a compaq presario sr1020nx, it's really old and it is working nicer than my laptop | 20:32 |
| koichirose | Rigongia: turns out I already have the wrapped one: /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so | 20:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | manikanta, it's because of gcc that we have linux today - it makes this all possible :) | 20:32 |
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, i fixed it | 20:32 |
| Flare183 | tanner2007: It'll let you mount everything | 20:32 |
| manikanta | what is use | 20:32 |
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, the compaq | 20:32 |
| tanner2007 | so just b oot from cd? | 20:33 |
| manikanta | how can i use it | 20:33 |
| Slart | manikanta: google for gcc .. it's a compiler suite.. compilers for all kinds of languages.. with linkers etc | 20:33 |
| istvan | if i do cat /var/log/dpgk.log | less - i get mostly blank stuff | 20:33 |
| Flare183 | tanner2007: Yes | 20:33 |
| manikanta | and cc means | 20:33 |
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, i fixed it and now it's running nice. im on it right now as we speak | 20:33 |
| istvan | and i can't leave cat | 20:33 |

I am duel booting with Windows XP and the card works f | 20:42 |
| Spyderco | Slart, ok | 20:42 |
| Gain | yes!! that's it flintwingel is that default now? | 20:42 |
| Slart | phyburn: yes | 20:42 |
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, the old pc is a 2.80 ghz intel celeron (single, probably it's a socket 754 but idk seriously) | 20:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | Gain, try to stick to the repositories as much as possible (general rule), it's certainly possible to install flash/mp3/etc within Ubuntu | 20:43 |
| flintwingel | Gain: no. | 20:43 |
| === eracc_ is now known as eracc | ||
| racecar56 | ZykoticK9, the laptop is a intel centrino duo (dual core, duh) | 20:43 |
| phyburn | Slart, thank you | 20:43 |
| flintwingel | Gain: you still have to install it separately | 20:43 |
| Spyderco | oh Slart, isnt necessary anymore | 20:43 |
| Gain | ok will do | 20:43 |
| === Raistlin1 is now known as Raistl|n | ||

| AdamVidarsson | Does anyone have time to help me setup Wireless? | 20:45 |
| sveakex | hello adam | 20:45 |
| istvan | how do i get all of the apps that come with ubuntu studio on ubuntu desktop? | 20:45 |
| sveakex | AdamVidarsson: do you want to connect to a wireless router? | 20:45 |
| AdamVidarsson | Yes sveakex | 20:46 |
| istvan | if I do apt-get install ubuntu-studio will that work, and if so will it get all of the ubuntu studio interfaces, and settings too? | 20:46 |
| istvan | i just want the apps | 20:46 |
| Slart | istvan: it might not be possible.. (I'm not sure what the ubuntu studio people do with their distro).. but you could try adding an ubuntu studio repository | 20:46 |
| charles__ | i just installed ubuntu, it gave me the password option but did not give me the option to choose username, and i cannot get a gui | 20:46 |
| AdamVidarsson | sveakex: Do you think you can help me with that? | 20:46 |
| sveakex | AdamVidarsson: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/internet/C/wireless-connecting.html | 20:46 |
| xcv | xcv back in the room, this time with a vnc question | 20:46 |
| charles__ | what do i need to do? is there a default | 20:46 |
| midnajt | yo people why didn't no one told me that you can listen to mp3 with just mouse over | 20:47 |
| eseven73 | !root | charles_ | 20:47 |
| midnajt | it scared the hell out of me | 20:47 |
| ubottu | charles_: 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 | 20:47 |
| RaceCondition | what to do if I get a "dd: reading `/dev/sda': Input/output error" while running "dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=1024k skip=87516 seek=87516"? | 20:47 |
| Slart | charles__: ehm.. as far as I can remember it does ask you for a username.. there isn't a default afaik | 20:47 |
| charles__ | i get a black screen asking for login? | 20:47 |
| Slart | charles__: and you never specified a username during the install? | 20:48 |
| sveakex | charles__: why did you not specify a username during the install? | 20:48 |
| charles__ | never specified a username | 20:48 |
| charles__ | it didnt ask me | 20:48 |
| Slart | midnajt: because it's a horrible feature we've all disabled =) | 20:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | midnajt, install mpg123 and mouse over mp3 will work :) | 20:48 |
| sveakex | what live cd did you install? | 20:48 |
| ghostlines | Hi, the first time i connect via ssh I'm prompted for a password, but the second time I'm not | 20:48 |
| Slart | charles__: it's a clean, standard install? | 20:48 |
| charles__ | yes | 20:48 |
| ghostlines | I'm trying pub key authentication, I never want to be askd a password | 20:48 |
| mikejet | Is there a way to tell firefox to pretend to be a IE8 browser on Windows? | 20:49 |
| sveakex | charles__: what cd did you use? | 20:49 |
| xcv | !vnc | 20:49 |
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 20:49 |
| ghostlines | can someone help me with this prob on ubuntu 9.04 | 20:49 |
| midnajt | Slart: I kinda like but damn I was freaking scared, and how to disable that | 20:49 |
| Slart | mikejet: there are plugins that let you fake the useragent | 20:49 |
| charles__ | ubuntu 6.06.1 | 20:49 |
| AdamVidarsson | sveakex: There's no "Network" In administration, only Networking Tools o.0 | 20:49 |
| Slart | midnajt: it's somewhere.. nautilus preferences I think | 20:49 |
| charles__ | i have no other way of getting anything else right now | 20:49 |
| sveakex | AdamVidarsson: then give that a try | 20:49 |
| AdamVidarsson | Already have ;/ | 20:49 |
| Slart | charles__: oh.. old cd.. really really old cd.. | 20:50 |
| eseven73 | charles_, 6.06 is pretty old | 20:50 |
| charles__ | I realize...just dont have any means of downloading another one...building a computer for my kids. | 20:50 |
| Rigongia | ghost_lines : have you setup your sshd to accept key based auth ? | 20:50 |
| Slart | charles__: I'm not even sure you can upgrade to a newer one when you start a 6.06.. upgrades were weird back then | 20:50 |
| charles__ | ok...well i have another harddrive...but need to get this install first | 20:51 |

| Kalmi | !latest | ldiamond | 21:22 |
| ubottu | ldiamond: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 21:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | sybux, i'm sure cron runs those automatically (but not REALLY sure) | 21:22 |
| ninadsp | ldiamond: do you have synaptic? if notm use the command line interface tasksel | 21:22 |

| jayandgina | Does anybody know, why the Visual Effects isn't working after updating to the latest version of Ubuntu? | 21:25 |
| Kalmi | jayandgina, old ati card? | 21:26 |
| ldiamond | Flare183: but then, how will I upgrade later? Is there a way to make myself a package so that when a newer version is released in the synaptics, I can simply upgrade? | 21:26 |
| Flare183 | manikanta_: Umm you can't because you can't mount a Ubuntu Partition from Vista | 21:26 |
| manikanta_ | Flare183: | 21:26 |
| jayandgina | Kalmi- it was working fine until I upgraded... | 21:26 |
| manikanta_ | ok thank u sir | 21:27 |
| cronox | hy there | 21:27 |
| ldiamond | You can mount EXT3 partition using ext3 drivers for windows | 21:27 |
| cyc | re | 21:27 |
| Flare183 | ldiamond: Use it until they get the newest version out, and then make backups of the config, and reinstall using the Ubuntu Repos | 21:27 |
| manikanta_ | then what is the use of putty terminal | 21:27 |
| Flare183 | manikanta_: Putty Terminal is for ssh/scp connections | 21:27 |

| Kalmi | Flare183, putty for scp? eh? | 21:28 |
| Flare183 | ZykoticK9, penguyinmessiah: You can, you have to open the preferences for your current theme | 21:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | Flare183, penguyinmessiah sorry my mistake! | 21:28 |
| axisys | erUSUL, jrib : thanks for the suggestion on using inotify and incrond .. working charm | 21:28 |
| Flare183 | !ssh | Kalmi | 21:28 |
| Kalmi | cyc, you can set it connect for all user... That's the same | 21:28 |
| ubottu | Kalmi: 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/ | 21:28 |
| ldiamond | Flare183: The problem is if I compile from source, theres no easy way to uninstall. It puts files everywhere in my file system and its a pain to find them all | 21:28 |
| cyc | iwconfig and wpa are PITA ... network manager works like a charm but I want auto connect to wi-fi ... | 21:28 |
| Slart | sybux: the crontab is usually empty.. what are you trying to do? | 21:29 |

| Slart | sybux: to run something at 13.30 every day you'd put something like 30 13 * * * doyourthing.sh | 21:30 |
| cyc | Kalmi the whole picture is: a box without display, accessed via ssh ... but I want wi-fi instead of wired connection :) | 21:30 |

| sybux | Slart : i got many script for cron and it's in cron.dail, cron.hourly etc.. | 21:30 |
| Pici | manikanta_: lsb_release -a on a terminal | 21:30 |

| Slart | sybux: I've got a /etc/anacrontab that seems to do some stuff.. let me pastebin it | 21:31 |
| Flare183 | ZykoticK9: Use ccsm to change our mouse pointer with Compiz Fusion | 21:31 |
| Slart | sybux: http://pastebin.com/f195e3036 | 21:31 |
| Kalmi | Flare183, ldiamond, It's not me who asked the question... I know what ssh is... SCP stand for Secure Copy.... and you cannot use putty for copying.... I use winscp (nice GUI) for copying to/from windows machines... | 21:32 |
| Slart | sybux: which logfile do you want to see? | 21:32 |
| manikanta_ | is it possible to upgrade from ubuntu to new version of ubuntu like kbuntu,x | 21:32 |
| boruziux | anyone network sockets channel? | 21:32 |
| mikepark | boruziux: there is a #sockets channel | 21:33 |
| Flare183 | boruziux: Ask this in #freenode | 21:33 |
| boruziux | thanks | 21:33 |
| Pici | manikanta_: Those 'versions of ubuntu' are just ubuntu with different default packages. Install kubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop to get those too. | 21:33 |
| Pici | !flavors | manikanta_ | 21:33 |
| ubottu | manikanta_: !GTK and !Qt are !GUI toolkits (i.e. software libraries that draw buttons, textboxes, etc). !GNOME, !KDE, !Xfce and friends are "!desktop environments", which build on top of such libraries to provide a "consistent" desktop experience. !Kubuntu and !Xubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with KDE and Xfce (respectively) installed as default, instead of GNOME. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu | 21:33 |
| WIGGMPk | manikanta_: I think you can just install kubuntu-desktop package and dit should do it | 21:33 |
| cyc | Kalmi this is a connection property? | 21:33 |
| ldiamond | Flare183: pscp = putty scp | 21:33 |
| ldiamond | oups | 21:33 |
| ldiamond | Kalmi: | 21:33 |
| sybux | slart : will have a look thx | 21:33 |
| ldiamond | Kalmi: Putty has a tool called pscp, which is putty scp, and is the equivalent of unix scp. | 21:34 |
| ldiamond | Kalmi: just letting you know. | 21:34 |
| manikanta_ | from where i can get those | 21:34 |
| ldiamond | manikanta_: those what? | 21:34 |
| Kalmi | boruziux, well... stackoverflow is not a channel... but you will probably get help there... | 21:34 |

| ldiamond | manikanta_: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 21:36 |
| Flare183 | !kubuntu | manikanta_ | 21:36 |
| ubottu | manikanta_: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE | 21:36 |
| TimBuck2 | Hello. I'm considering using XFS, I am quite aware of how it performs compared to both EXT3 and EXT4, what I am wondering is how good the XFS recovery tool XFS_Repair is compared to fsck of EXT4 ? | 21:36 |
| ldiamond | manikanta_ this will install kubuntu | 21:36 |

| ldiamond | manikanta_ through APT-GET | 21:37 |
| nrg | sjokkis, : go in synaptic package manager and search for xserver-xorg-input-synaptics | 21:37 |
| Pici | manikanta_: If you install the packages from the Ubuntu repos, qt will be pulled in automatically. | 21:37 |
| nrg | sjokkis, and downgrade from 0.99.3-2ubuntu5 to 0.99.3-2ubuntu4 | 21:38 |
| Kalmi | dassouki, just a single app? or a whole desktop environment? | 21:38 |
| sets88 | Guru needed! | 21:39 |
| ldiamond | manikanta_: sudo apt-get install libqt4-core (or maybe libqt4-dev), but the simplest way is to use apt-get to install a KDE program. This will get all the dependencies for you. | 21:39 |
| * Goldblattster runs off to find mark shuttleworth | 21:39 | |

| arkhalis | can anyone help with a wired ethernet port issue on 9.04? running eeepc 1008HA and can't get it to connect | 21:42 |
| m0u5e | Goldblattster: I wanted the up to date jaunty build | 21:43 |
| Goldblattster | oh | 21:43 |
| m0u5e | Goldblattster: so i can install without having to update... also apparently a few issues are resolved in the latest jaunty build involving some hardware on laptops and getting it to boot off the usb :( | 21:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | Flare183, everything has an option in ccsm ;) but I can't find the actual mouse pointer theme. i have confirmed, by using comiz-icon, and switching between metacity & compiz, that compiz turns off the mouse pointer theme. even using the "Advance Search" inside ccsm for mouse and pointer - don't "seem" to have the theme? the saddest part is when i keep searching on google an article about "switch ubuntu to look like vista" keeps coming back on | 21:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | the first page -- sudder. | 21:43 |

| m0u5e | Goldblattster: thanks, sorry if I did not make that clear | 21:46 |
| m0u5e | so anyone here know where I can get the up-to-date jaunty build iso? | 21:46 |
| raylu | istvan: if you have a package in mind, use dpkg -L [packagename] | 21:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | raylu, lol that's probably a good idea | 21:46 |
| Goldblattster | it's ok. | 21:46 |
| m0u5e | maybe like a jaunty net install? | 21:46 |
| Pindakaas | when I switch to Internet Connection Sharing on my mobile it stops seeing the mobile as an rndis0 thingy according to dmesg | 21:46 |
| Batty4 | Hey everyone. To make the LANG permanent. Where do I place it? A fix for some errors I was getting with g++ was export LANG=C Do I place in /etc/environment or something like /etc/profile? | 21:46 |

| istvan | what dir should i get them from? | 21:46 |
| Pindakaas | syncing and file sharing on the other hand works using opensynce | 21:46 |
| raylu | istvan: they're not in a single directory | 21:46 |
| Flare183 | ZykoticK9: Its there I know, but I can't remember where its at | 21:47 |
| arkhalis | I can't seem to get a connection for my wired ethernet port... the lshw says i have an unclaimed ethernet adapter... is there something i have to do to actually access the HW? | 21:47 |
| raylu | istvan: and there's no point in backing up programs. just reinstall them | 21:47 |
| raylu | arkhalis: lspci -v and ifconfig, please | 21:47 |
| arkhalis | one sec | 21:47 |
| raylu | Batty4: i think this has something to do with locale and gen-locale | 21:48 |
| arkhalis | raylu, message them to you? | 21:48 |
| raylu | Batty4: so /etc/conf.d/... maybe | 21:48 |
| raylu | arkhalis: sure, but pastebin would be easier for anyone following the conversation | 21:48 |

| raylu | Rascal: i believe you can right-click to the left of it to find it's name. right-clicking on the gnome-panel itself and looking at the applets might help you. finally, try "ps aux | grep gnome" | 21:50 |

| Conic | Okay, this is strange. I install Ubuntu, sound works great. sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, use KDE for a while, reboot, sound doesn't work. | 21:56 |
| Conic | I check alsamixer, everything. | 21:56 |
| maveas | ? I've just installed the 64bit version of server 9.04 but it only shows 3.5 GB. What should I do? Enable PAE in some way? | 21:57 |
| Conic | It says ALSA doesn't work, falling back to pulseaudio. | 21:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | Conic, KDE does use a different sound daemon then Gnome does - just to let you know | 21:57 |

| usser | tanner2007, if that doesnt work try fixboot | 21:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | tanner2007, you need to use Windows to re-write your MBR Master Boot Record (which you could ask about in a Windows channel) -- or perhaps someone knows a way to uninstall grub from the live cd. good luck. | 21:58 |
| Decessus | you don't need windows | 21:59 |
| usser | tanner2007, how can you not have a cd, you paid for your OS... sorry no sympathy here | 21:59 |
| tanner2007 | hmm i dont haveno windows cd excpet ubuntu cd | 21:59 |
| Decessus | there are many available tools in a boot cd called Hiren's | 21:59 |

| Decessus | dewayne, Kalmi_ means what does the 'tp' stand for | 22:03 |
| racecar56 | manikanta, freebsd is not linux, just to make sure u know | 22:03 |
| emacsian | Kalmi_: what is that ? :) | 22:03 |
| racecar56 | manikanta, linux is the os that pwns windows | 22:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | manikanta, they are both free OS - but check up on questions like this at wikipedia or google | 22:03 |
| gabriel | hi | 22:03 |
| ignusb | hmm, ok. now to go and find a way to hard-remap keys in XP... | 22:03 |

| gabriel | anyone know wy jack audio driver fails to load? | 22:04 |

| emacsian | Kalmi_: I've also set ip_forward=1, is there anything else that I've missed ? | 22:04 |
| Decessus | ubuntu is debian based, which uses the linux kernel | 22:04 |
| usser | tanner2007, err not to you sorry | 22:04 |
| racecar56 | freebsd == bsd | 22:04 |

| Kalmi_ | tanner2007, #windows | 22:05 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, ive been looking for a windows one for a long time | 22:05 |
| mib_r0qe9l | tanner2007, you shouldn't have to do much, just hit repair I'd think? | 22:05 |

| ZykoticK9 | mib_r0qe9l, your trying a 64bit cd on a 32bit system i bet! or something like that. | 22:07 |

| ZykoticK9 | mib_r0qe9l, what system are you installing it onto? | 22:08 |
| Kalmi_ | emacsian, oh... that first command... that shouldn't be eth0... that should be your external interface | 22:08 |
| mib_r0qe9l | Aspire 5535 | 22:08 |
| calman_ | ninadsp: would \x work? because when i look at the packet it sends literally the two characters '\' and \x' | 22:08 |
| mib_r0qe9l | ZykoticK9: Aspire 5535 | 22:08 |

| shadowcast | i need some help with my wireless in xubuntu, can anyone here help? | 22:09 |

| usser | phaidros, glxinfo | grep "OpenGL vendor string" | 22:09 |
| sjokkis | hi. network manager seems to be reactiivating my wired interface. this causes my wireless interface to disconnect. anyone know how to make network-manager behave itself? | 22:09 |
| usser | phaidros, that too is important | 22:09 |
| Kalmi_ | emacsian, um... I guess I don't understand your setup than... | 22:09 |
| Kalmi_ | emacsian, ADSL? | 22:09 |
| calman_ | ninadsp: yep, nothing about sending raw hex values, and all the examples are using plain ASCII...it might not really be intended for this. a google result yielded nothing either | 22:10 |
| ignusb | on a different note, I'm a new-ish linux user, went with ubuntu for driver support and the community around it. I'm wanting to learn linux in-and-out as well as I know the microsoft range of products [MCSA], are there any documents or training manuals people can recommend for that sort of knowledge? | 22:10 |

| ZykoticK9 | kerebrus, with that error i doubt you have 3d excelleration -- perhaps your in 2d model? | 22:24 |
| Kalmi_ | jakupl, :D | 22:24 |
| kerebrus | ZykoticK9: how would I find that out? | 22:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | kerebrus, "glxinfo | grep direct" might tell us? | 22:25 |
| Kalmi_ | jakupl, your router blocks any incoming connections by defualt... :) | 22:25 |
| jakupl | Kalmi_ well I don't really know what it is... but that is what I need to do right? I can read up on some documentation. | 22:25 |
| je||y | why is it important to download 64 bit ubuntu if you have a 64 bit pc? | 22:25 |
| emacsian | Kalmi_: the solution says fix the filesystem with gparted and fsck. the problem is I don't have a CD drive nor USB boot works, so cannot really fix the filesystem. | 22:25 |
| gbear14275 | is the "disk usage analyzer" an ubuntu or debian app? | 22:25 |
| jakupl | Kalmi_ oh ok... | 22:25 |
| gbear14275 | er... I meant gnome | 22:25 |
| gbear14275 | I was trying to tell a friend how to use it on his debian machine but he says he doesn't have it | 22:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | je||y, it's not. only if you want to address more then 4GB or RAM -- BUT it's more complicated then 32bit | 22:26 |
| usser | gbear14275, he doesnt have du ? | 22:26 |
| jakupl | Kalmi_ so I need to make my router assign port 22 to ssh... or have I got it backwards? | 22:26 |
| raylu | je||y: the short answer is, it's not | 22:26 |
| kerebrus | ZykoticK9: gave the same error as what I posted | 22:26 |
| tanner2007 | ok guys i fixed my MBR but now when i go to install ubuntu it says no OS or detected and only gives me the option to install over my entire hard drve, but of course if i do that windows visat will be over wrtitten, what do i do | 22:26 |
| raylu | je||y: what ZykoticK9 said. also, 64-bit is a bit faster | 22:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | kerebrus, ya so you don't have 3d | 22:26 |
| raylu | je||y: though most users won't notice the difference and don't want to deal with compatibility issues that it entails | 22:26 |
| AdamVidars | Can anyone help me running my .run file on desktop ? :-p | 22:27 |
| kerebrus | ZykoticK9: I have the nvidia-glx drivers installed? How do I fix the issue? | 22:27 |
| je||y | raylu: how much faster? | 22:27 |
| fccf-starbucks | je||y: that really depends... some software isn't compiled in 64 bit, but the software that is built in 64 bit will run alot faster | 22:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | kerebrus, reinstall them - as i initially suggested :) | 22:27 |
| raylu | je||y: 5-10%, depending on the code. function calls are much cleaner, but it happens at a low level and isn't really an issue most of the time | 22:27 |
| guyzmo | hi | 22:27 |
| Kalmi_ | jakupl, yeah... something like... you have to tell it that you want any incoming connection coming to port 22 to be forwarded to your machine's ip to port 22 | 22:27 |
| kerebrus | ZykoticK9: lol that broke them the last time I tried that | 22:27 |
| manikanta_ | how to use .bin files | 22:27 |
| jakupl | Kalmi_ I will upload a picture of the wireless router configuration thing | 22:27 |
| Kalmi_ | jakupl, I don't want that | 22:28 |
| guyzmo | how do I make dhclient3 launched automatically and properly on launch ? | 22:28 |
| je||y | raylu: what does that mean? | 22:28 |
| jakupl | Kalmi_ ok | 22:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | kerebrus, are you using the driver from the repo (the default repo)? | 22:28 |
| raylu | guyzmo: don't. networkmanager | 22:28 |
| bill_lm | alguém do Brasil? | 22:28 |
| guyzmo | raylu - well, I configured networkmanager, but it stays unhappy | 22:28 |
| guntbert | !br | bill_lm | 22:28 |
| ubottu | bill_lm: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 22:28 |
| raylu | je||y: i mean that there are twice as many registers in 64-bit processors and 64-bit OSs use all of them, so the way the stack is handled is now cleaner and faster | 22:28 |
| === Cueball|2 is now known as Cueball | ||
| kerebrus | ZykoticK9: yes | 22:28 |
| guyzmo | raylu - sorry for being oldschool, but I can't get rid of the /!\ logo even when I configured the network through it | 22:28 |
| tanner2007 | one have any clue | 22:29 |
| guyzmo | (so a ifconfig eth0... is easier imho) | 22:29 |
| guyzmo | (when it's static) | 22:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | kerebrus, well, i'd still recommend you try reinstall the nvidia stuff - it's the only way to solve the kernel/module version error. | 22:29 |
| fccf-starbucks | guyzmo - the /!\ logo is the updater | 22:30 |
| bill_lm | vc fala portugues? | 22:30 |
| Kalmi_ | AdamVidars, what are you tring to install? and why? | 22:30 |
| kerebrus | ZykoticK9: and if that doesnt fix the issue? | 22:30 |
| raylu | guyzmo: static? oh. /etc/network/interfaces... i think | 22:30 |

| manikanta_ | how to make use of .bin | 22:30 |
| raylu | guyzmo: maybe "man interfaces" | 22:30 |
| je||y | raylu: but i should only see the difference on the programs that were designed for 64 bit? and even then only 5-10%? | 22:30 |
| Kalmi_ | manikanta_, cd image? | 22:30 |
| midnajt_ | ok sudo apt-get update didn't work error " NO_PUBKEY " | 22:30 |
| Kalmi_ | Kalmi_, or installer? | 22:30 |
| Kalmi_ | manikanta_, or installer? | 22:30 |
| DanaG | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/339757 | 22:31 |
| raylu | je||y: you should only see a major diffference in programs that use lots of function calls. highly recursive algorithms, perhaps | 22:31 |
| midnajt_ | how do I get the public key | 22:31 |
| farchumbre | hi, I have a problem with updating ubuntu | 22:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | kerebrus, reinstalling will fix the issue about kernel/module mismatch - but that could lead to a whole different issue - but right now you have 2d graphics, your probably running in vesa or nv equivalent driver (which is NO good for gaming) | 22:31 |
| raylu | je||y: arguably, badly written code :P | 22:31 |
| DanaG | I _hate_ when people mark non-duplicates as duplicates, because they misunderstand what the bug report is about. | 22:31 |
| bill_lm | ola pessoal gostaria de ajuda com a minha rede! | 22:31 |
| manikanta_ | i downloaded postgre it is in the form of postgresql-8.3.7-1-linux.bin | 22:31 |
| raylu | je||y: the point is, there's not much difference in speed. the major thing it brings to the table is the >4GB virtual memory | 22:31 |

| Kalmi_ | jakupl, yw :) | 22:32 |
| je||y | how do you find out if your pc has more than 4GB virtual memory? | 22:32 |
| alex_dinamo | I know the instructions, ubottu | 22:32 |
| lovinglinux | Hi all. I was wondering if there is anyone with a P4 3.06Ghz HT here that would like to compare Firefox benchmarks with me? | 22:32 |
| Kalmi_ | AdamVidars, what are you tring to install and why? | 22:32 |
| lovinglinux | bill_lm: qual seu problema? | 22:33 |
| alex_dinamo | but this is the third attempt, and it doesn't work | 22:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | AdamVidars, (if the file is set to executable) open a terminal and then type "./NAME_OF_FILE.bin" - good luck | 22:33 |
| DanaG | yo, isn't postgresql in the package manager? | 22:33 |
| alex_dinamo | is anyone here willing to listen? | 22:33 |
| quinn | hello | 22:33 |
| raylu | !anyone | alex_dinamo | 22:33 |
| ubottu | alex_dinamo: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 22:33 |
| raylu | je||y: uh... | 22:33 |
| raylu | je||y: virtual memory is a concept the kernel maintains | 22:33 |
| alex_dinamo | ubottu, I just said it | 22:33 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about I just said it | 22:33 |
| raylu | je||y: you mean physical memory? | 22:33 |
| guntbert | midnajt_: see https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA (a bit farther down on that page) | 22:33 |
| raylu | alex_dinamo: ubottu is telling you to _not_ say it | 22:34 |
| alex_dinamo | ubottu, ugrade segfaults | 22:34 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 22:34 |

| je||y | raylu> je||y: the point is, there's not much difference in speed. the major thing it brings to the table is the >4GB virtual memory | 22:34 |
| lovinglinux | alex_dinamo: ubottu is a bot. | 22:34 |
| ldiamond | i finally decided to install the older version of MySql using the synaptic package manager, however, it fails to install.... what can I do? | 22:34 |
| raylu | je||y: yeah. the 64-bit OS has more than 4GB of virtual memory. it has nothing to do with your physical memory | 22:34 |
| alex_dinamo | great... a bot | 22:34 |
| raylu | je||y: virtual memory maps to physical memory, though | 22:34 |
| emacsian | Kalmi_: I hope you got my problem, or do I explain again | 22:34 |
| alex_dinamo | anyone _real_ here that has any idea? | 22:34 |
| raylu | je||y: so if you have 4 or more GB of physical memory, you won't be able to ues it all | 22:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | AdamVidars, so in the terminal first run "chmod +x ./FILENAME.bin" then try "./FILENAME.bin" | 22:35 |

| alex_dinamo | this is my third attempt at upgrading... and I am not a newbie.. maybe something escapes me, but I am not a newbie, and upgrade either segfaults or breaks with a message about a python package | 22:35 |

| bill_lm | um exemplo é se passo uma imagem de dvd e trava e tenho que reiniciar na força | 22:36 |
| raylu | !work | Weed37 | 22:36 |
| ubottu | Weed37: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 22:36 |
| DanaG | !info postgresql | 22:36 |
| raylu | what's with the flood of inspecific questions? | 22:36 |
| ubottu | postgresql (source: postgresql-8.3): object-relational SQL database (supported version). In component main, is optional. Version 8.3.7-1 (jaunty), package size 229 kB, installed size 268 kB | 22:36 |

| farchumbre | ubottu: what's the difference between aptitude and apt-get | 22:36 |
| ubottu | I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 22:36 |
| Kalmi_ | emacsian, um... get a CD.... sorry, I have no idea how to run fsck online... :S | 22:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | AdamVidars, "cd Desktop" with a capital D | 22:36 |
| raylu | axisys: who's crontab? | 22:36 |
| Weed37 | i am looking for the wine help chanell | 22:36 |
| axisys | raylu: root's | 22:36 |
| AdamVidars | ah that worked ZykoticK9 thx :P | 22:36 |
| je||y | raylu do you mean "if I don't have 4 GB of PHYSICAL memory, I wont be able to use all of my VIRTUAL memory?" | 22:36 |
| raylu | !aptitude | farchumbre | 22:37 |
| ubottu | farchumbre: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. Like other APT front-ends, it can install/remove packages and their dependencies (on Dapper and earlier, however, only aptitude keeps track of unused dependencies). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide | 22:37 |
| ninadsp | axisys: /etc/cron.daily maybe? if its a daily one... | 22:37 |
| emacsian | Kalmi_: yeah that's the real problem, the CD drive doesn't work | 22:37 |
| eseven73 | My apt-get is repeating twice for everything even apt-cache search, and it takes a long time to read "Reading Database" | 22:37 |
| raylu | je||y: no. you always have 4GB of virtual memory with a 32-bit OS | 22:37 |
| alex_dinamo | gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" -> upgrade window opens, then disappears | 22:37 |
| axisys | ninadsp: no it is a cronjob belongs to root runs as fs changes .. | 22:37 |
| alex_dinamo | or | 22:37 |
| raylu | je||y: some of it maps to physical memory, and hopefully the rest of it maps to swap or is unpaged | 22:37 |
| alex_dinamo | gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" -> segmentation fault | 22:37 |
| DanaG | manikanta_: yo, why not use the packaged postgresql? | 22:37 |
| guntbert | !wine | Weed37 | 22:37 |

| AdamVidars | how can I enable so I get write permission to evrything? >< | 22:38 |
| raylu | axisys: perhaps /root | 22:38 |
| emacsian | Kalmi_ oh yeah :) | 22:38 |
| ninadsp | axisys: if its root, then more the reason for it to be in /etc/cron.* directories... | 22:38 |
| AdamVidars | Cause I cant install the game now to /usr/local/games/ >< | 22:38 |
| angus_ | Hi folks, stuck a dvd in I wanted to watch, movie player says I don't have permission. What gives? | 22:38 |

| alex_dinamo | raylu, did you read that | 22:38 |
| midnajt_ | guntbert: thx that helped | 22:38 |
| ninadsp | angus_: libdvdcss? | 22:38 |
| ed_debian | AdamVidars, Having permission to everything in the filesystem is bad | 22:38 |
| Kalmi_ | emacsian, oh... I got an idea... you could add gparted to grub and boot it into ram... I have done that once | 22:38 |
| je||y | raylu: im thoroughly confused | 22:38 |
| ruler | did ubuuntu have audio and video converter | 22:38 |
| raylu | alex_dinamo: yes. not familiar with cdromupgrade, sorry | 22:39 |

| guntbert | !sudo | AdamVidars | 22:39 |
| AdamVidars | all I want to do is install this fucking game and play lol xD | 22:39 |
| ninadsp | ruler: mencoder and ffmpeg... | 22:39 |
| ubottu | AdamVidars: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 22:39 |
| ed_debian | if you want to do something to /usr/local/games/bin (or whatever) just install that package as root | 22:39 |
| raylu | ruler: mediacoder is a general purpose one. if you have two specific formats, i can recommend something better, perhaps | 22:39 |
| alex_dinamo | anyone familiar with cdrom upgrade around here? | 22:39 |
| raylu | je||y: this is fairly low-level stuff that you shouldn't concern yourself with if you don't care :D | 22:39 |
| ed_debian | AdamVidars, Did you download a .deb package?? | 22:39 |
| angus_ | minadsp: If it was a codec issue, the the movie player would automatically download it, right? It did when I wanted to watch some divxed beavis and butthead | 22:39 |
| AdamVidars | ed_debian: no it's a .run file | 22:39 |
| emacsian | Kalmi_: add gparted to grub ? sorry I didn't get you | 22:39 |
| DanaG | AdamVidars: what game? | 22:40 |
| ninadsp | alex_dinamo: what happened with the cdrom upgrade? what is ur current version? | 22:40 |
| je||y | raylu: i just want to know if it's worth it to get 64 bit ubuntu or not. | 22:40 |
| ruler | minadsp: weather it can convert all type of fomat | 22:40 |
| ed_debian | AdamVidars, ?? .run? I have never heard of that | 22:40 |
| AdamVidars | im inside the installation now, but I can't install it to /usr/local/games/ cause I dont have permission, and the game is: Enemy Territory. | 22:40 |
| axisys | ninadsp: it is not part of crond .. it is called by incrond .. it triggers at fs change .. using inotify (learned it here too) | 22:40 |
| mver | looking for help on mysql date arithmetic, but #mysql channel seems pretty dead. Any suggestions for a chanel? | 22:40 |
| ninadsp | angus_: yes.. it should which one are u using? | 22:40 |
| raylu | je||y: how much ram do you have and what do you use your machine for? | 22:40 |
| DanaG | hmm, google for the game name and "deb", and you may find packages for it. | 22:40 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, newly installed 8.10... upgrading to 9.04... | 22:40 |
| ed_debian | AdamVidars, Just throw a sudo in front of the command you're trying to run | 22:40 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, newly installed 8.10... upgrading to 9.04... segmentation fault on upgrade | 22:40 |
| ninadsp | ruler: they do cover most of the formats... | 22:40 |
| eseven73 | My apt-get is repeating twice for everything even apt-cache search, and it takes a long time to read "Reading Database" | 22:40 |
| ninadsp | axisys: ohh... then i dunno... :) | 22:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | AdamVidars, exit the installer -then run it again as "sudo <the rest of the command>" | 22:41 |
| angus_ | ninadsp: Just the default one that comes with 9.04, haven't bothered downloading vlc yet | 22:41 |

| ninadsp | alex_dinamo: did you do an md5sum on the cd? | 22:41 |
| raylu | angus_: you make it sound like VLC is in someway superior :P | 22:41 |
| ed_debian | quinn, sudo apt-get install awm | 22:41 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, it is an image, just downloaded | 22:41 |
| Kalmi_ | emacsian, yeah... extract the contents of the gparted livecd... have a look at how it boots (it uses grub) and add it to grub | 22:41 |
| quinn | thank you | 22:41 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, loop mounted | 22:41 |
| DanaG | I don't like vlc... it completely ignores styles and positions specified in mkv subtitles. | 22:42 |
| angus_ | raylu: I just like cross compatible things, I like having vlc on friends mac's, and on windows. | 22:42 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, no errors on download | 22:42 |
| ninadsp | alex_dinamo: try doing a md5sum.. faulty image downloads do give problems... :) | 22:42 |
| raylu | angus_: mplayer is cross-platform | 22:42 |
| Kalmi_ | emacsian, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-879834.html something like this.... the "toram" is important | 22:42 |
| angus_ | So how do I give myself permission to watch a dvd? Reboot and go into windows? :P | 22:42 |
| ninadsp | alex_dinamo: if the md5sum doesnt match, then there have been errors... | 22:42 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, mmm.. that would be strange, since I downloaded two images from different mirrors, both upgrades failed | 22:42 |

| guntbert | alex_dinamo: I would not try a system upgrade from a loop mounted iso, but maybe I'm just timid :-) | 22:43 |
| raylu | eseven73: in /etc/apt? which version of ubuntu? | 22:43 |
| ruler | minadsp: please tell how to install it | 22:43 |
| eseven73 | 8.04 server | 22:43 |
| DanaG | I installed acroread to get rid of that damned fullscreen-hogging evince. | 22:43 |
| emacsian | Kalmi_: thank you. will try that | 22:43 |
| ninadsp | alex_dinamo: then it might be a problem with that particular iso build | 22:43 |
| alex_dinamo | guntbert, then they should not advertise that as an option, don't you think? | 22:43 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, what does that mean? | 22:43 |
| DanaG | I HATE having my document reader steal my whole screen when I try to play or pause my music. | 22:43 |
| Kalmi_ | emacsian, and fix the cd drive... :) | 22:43 |
| ninadsp | guntbert: i've done it a few times... i've never had problems :) | 22:43 |
| eseven73 | raylu, nevermind found it, now what? | 22:43 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, where do I get "the right one"? | 22:43 |
| guntbert | alex_dinamo: where do "they" advertise that? | 22:44 |

| farchumbre | IS ANYONE USING THINKFINGER? | 22:44 |
| alex_dinamo | gunni, it's official documentation, isn't it? | 22:44 |

| farchumbre | ok | 22:45 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, that's just great, so I am the first one running into this? | 22:45 |

| ronen | i need help with ubuntu | 22:45 |
| ronen | can anyone help me? | 22:45 |
| ed_debian | ronen, Just ask your question (that's the common practice) | 22:46 |
| yasasvy1 | !ask | ronen | 22:46 |
| ubottu | ronen: 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. :-) | 22:46 |
| alex_dinamo | maybe I am wrong, correct me... isn't this sort of official forum? | 22:46 |
| ninadsp | angus_: alt+f2 and gnome-terminal | 22:46 |
| axisys | raylu: took your suggestion and put it /root | 22:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | dva5912, use the offtopic for questions of that nature - this is suppose to be for support | 22:46 |
| axisys | in /root that is | 22:46 |
| guntbert | alex_dinamo: ninadsp: never seen that, will try it next time :-) | 22:46 |
| raylu | axisys: that makes me wonder what /etc/cron* is for | 22:46 |
| axisys | raylu: system cronjobs .. not belong to root user | 22:46 |
| ninadsp | guntbert: just make sure tht u've mounted it at /cdrom :) | 22:47 |
| ronen | ok | 22:47 |
| ronen | i just installed ubuntu | 22:47 |
| axisys | raylu: and i think they are event triggerd | 22:47 |
| alex_dinamo | gunni, I guess this is not an official place to get help, I thought so.. sorry | 22:47 |
| administrator | hello | 22:47 |
| farchumbre | is anyone experience problems with multi keyboard layouts, when using an external usb keyboard or thinkfinger? | 22:47 |
| ed_debian | ronen, what is your question | 22:47 |
| administrator | whats your question | 22:47 |
| quinn | i tried sudo apt-get install awm and it didn't work | 22:47 |
| guntbert | ninadsp: advice taken :-) | 22:47 |
| axisys | raylu: like at boot for example | 22:47 |
| administrator | hw come it wudnt worl | 22:47 |
| ed_debian | quinn, What did it say? | 22:47 |
| administrator | fuck u | 22:47 |
| quinn | an error | 22:47 |
| administrator | what error | 22:48 |
| ninadsp | quinn: awm or awn? | 22:48 |

| lusepuster_ | bump - trying to get s-video/tv-out to work - is the tv supposed to show up in the screens dialog or...? | 22:48 |
| guntbert | alex_dinamo: lets check once more - the md5sum is ok? | 22:48 |
| ed_debian | quinn, Yeah I think I meant to saw awn (avant window navigator) | 22:48 |
| farchumbre | is anyone using multi keyboard layouts? | 22:48 |
| ed_debian | meant to say* | 22:48 |
| alex_dinamo | gunni, guess what? network udate also segfaults.. this is just great | 22:48 |
| ninadsp | alex_dinamo: if the md5 sum matches, you can look up launchpad.net or the ubuntu.com site to see which admins you can contact, to correct the issue | 22:48 |
| administrator | sorry ubottu | 22:48 |
| ed_debian | ronen, Do you have a question? | 22:49 |
| angus_ | No luck, I tried to install the libdvdthingywotsit, it installed, but the media player still says I don't have permission. This is frustrating! | 22:49 |
| quinn | it says couldn't find packAGE awm | 22:49 |
| ed_debian | administrator, ubottu is a program | 22:49 |
| AdamVidars | is there no possible way that you can get this permission shit away? I cant even extract things to locations and stuff ;< | 22:49 |
| eseven73 | raylu, http://paste.ubuntu.com/184580/ | 22:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | lusepuster_, "bump" that's funny -- what video card are you using? for tv out you almost certainly will also need the driver for your video card also working. | 22:49 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, nah... network update also faults... on a newly 8.10 installed system? gotta be kidding | 22:49 |
| ninadsp | administrator: awn is supposed to be a dock... if i am not wrong | 22:49 |
| administrator | ooh ok ninadsp | 22:49 |
| guntbert | AdamVidars: you've been told at least twice to use sudo | 22:49 |
| kerebrus | ZykoticK9: Still does work | 22:49 |
| alex_dinamo | seems like 9.10 simply doesn't cut it... would not be the first time | 22:49 |
| AdamVidars | guntbert: how can I sudo when i extract? :S | 22:50 |
| administrator | what didnt you get any help from forums | 22:50 |
| ed_debian | quinn, if you type sudo apt-get install aw and then hit tab twice you will see all the packages that start with "aw" | 22:50 |
| ninadsp | alex_dinamo: 8.10 or 9.10? | 22:50 |
| alex_dinamo | maybe this is seriously the last ubuntu I install.. its no fun when upgrade smears your machine and you lose your weekend | 22:50 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, 8.10 -> 9.10, I thought I said that before | 22:50 |
| ninadsp | ed_debian: pressing tab after apt-get install gets package names? | 22:50 |
| ed_debian | AdamVidars, In linux you don't have write permissions to anything except your home folder (sort of like the my documents folder in windows) | 22:50 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, 8.10 is newly installed | 22:51 |
| farchumbre | is there anyway to remove pulseaudio? i have to killall pulseaudio everytime i start up, otherwise sound does not work | 22:51 |
| lusepuster_ | ZykoticK9, it's an intel 945GM | 22:51 |
| guntbert | AdamVidars: for *special" purposes there is "sudo -i", but ... | 22:51 |
| ninadsp | alex_dinamo: ohh... sorry... hadnt read it all... | 22:51 |
| AdamVidars | okay I open the .zip file, I chose extract, I can't write sudo anywhere its no near the terminal -.- | 22:51 |
| ed_debian | ninadsp, It shows packages matching what you've started to type yes | 22:51 |
| yasasvy1 | !sudo | AdamVidars | 22:51 |
| ubottu | AdamVidars: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 22:51 |
| ed_debian | AdamVidars, You can extract it to anything inside /home/AdamVidars | 22:51 |
| alex_dinamo | ninadsp, maybe I just need to get to the idea that ubuntu upgrades are simply a joke... had the same problem when upgrading to 8.04 from previous... it blew all the time and had ton fresh install it sucks | 22:52 |
| ninadsp | !gksu | AdamVidars | 22:52 |
| ubottu | AdamVidars: 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) | 22:52 |
| quinn | can you guys help me i treid sudo apt-get install awm but it came back error couldn't find awm | 22:52 |

| ZykoticK9 | lusepuster_, have you run something like "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel" and verified that that intel video driver is being used? from this poist suggests it more or less just-works http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=449232&highlight=s+video | 22:53 |

| ubottu | ldiamond: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

| pizzledizzle | can someone explain why this command works because i thought each statement had to be closed by ; or && : DISPLAY=":0.0" xmodmap -pke | 22:54 |
| raylu | farchumbre: ... i was more interested in the output | 22:54 |
| farchumbre | raylu: yes i did, but it didn't download anything | 22:54 |
| farchumbre | ok | 22:55 |
| raylu | pizzledizzle: that sets the environment variable DISPLAY | 22:55 |
| kmdm | pizzledizzle: The first part is setting an environment variable FOO="BAR" command args is legal... (in bash, at least) | 22:55 |
| raylu | pizzledizzle: temporarily for that command | 22:55 |
| farchumbre | you mean !aptitude ? raylu | 22:55 |
| raylu | farchumbre: yes | 22:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | pizzledizzle, ; is used to run multiple commands on a single line. && means after succesfully completing run the next command i give you. | 22:55 |
| eseven73 | how do I delete my apt-get cache, I think it's messing things up | 22:55 |
| erUSUL | pizzledizzle: there is only one comand on that line so no need for ; && or || | 22:55 |
| erUSUL | eseven73: sudo apt-get clean | 22:56 |
| eseven73 | thats the one thanks erUSUL | 22:56 |
| raylu | eseven73: sudo aptitude clean | 22:56 |
| erUSUL | pizzledizzle: DISPLAY=":0.0" is just a variable declaration | 22:56 |

| eseven73 | raylu, erUSUL my apt-get and aptitude-get still repeat twice for everything :( | 22:57 |
| lusepuster_ | ZykoticK9, maybe I simply don't know how to get the output to the TV? I have tried googling but don't find anythng... | 22:57 |
| lusepuster_ | ZykoticK9, thanks | 22:57 |
| pizzledizzle | erUSUL, does it have any special name? im trying to google it | 22:57 |

| AdamVidars | :_( | 23:04 |
| jakupl | I live in a dormitary and I have a static ip adress | 23:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | AdamVidars, since you asked a moment ago - i've installed ET and it runs. | 23:04 |
| asterix | I've got windows xp and ubuntu 9.04 on a second drive and currently I'm able to boot fine to 8.10 on my first drive. How do I edit my grub to allow me to boot into either OS on the second drive? | 23:04 |
| Kalmi_ | jakupl, um... you should know the ip address of your machine.... | 23:04 |
| coz_ | AdamVidars, open a terminal sudo nautilus then you can navigate to where ever to what ever :) | 23:04 |
| jakupl | yeah, I do, but that does not work | 23:04 |
| Kalmi_ | jakupl, do you have a router? | 23:04 |
| jakupl | I altso have a router, but I have configured port forwarding | 23:05 |

| or4n9e | I tried with --force to no avail | 23:06 |

| Kalmi_ | jakupl, that's a private ip address... | 23:06 |

| asterix | I've got windows xp and ubuntu 9.04 on a second drive and currently I'm able to boot fine to 8.10 on my first drive. How do I edit my grub to allow me to boot into either OS on the second drive? | 23:09 |
| Kalmi_ | guntbert, jakupl: he said he had already set up port forwarding | 23:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | AdamVidars, just use "sudo cp -r Files /where-ever-et-stores-stuff" | 23:09 |
| or4n9e | Kalmi_: I know :) but I'd like to | 23:09 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: just root | 23:09 |
| eseven73 | raylu, I wonder what could have created those three files though? Kinda scary. | 23:09 |
| kmdm | !grub | asterix | 23:09 |

| ed_debian | or4n9e, You log in as root? | 23:09 |
| jthomas | eseven73: np | 23:09 |
| rump | raboof: thanks! :) | 23:09 |
| guntbert | Kalmi_: ah | 23:09 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: I build a custom backtrack-4 beta with GNOME desktop | 23:09 |
| jakupl | Kalmi_ I have administrative access to my own router, but I live in a dormitary, and they might have a router.... right? | 23:09 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: on a regular desktop system I certainly won't do this | 23:10 |
| or4n9e | but on BT it's intended | 23:10 |
| guntbert | jakupl: this port forwarding must be done on any router behind the last "official" interface | 23:11 |
| ed_debian | or4n9e, Ok good (you scared me for a second there). I don't think you're going to be able to run update-notifier if the source code own't allow you to do it as root. | 23:11 |
| or4n9e | I just need the appropriate switch for the notifier, --force doesn't help and there's no man-page | 23:11 |
| Kalmi_ | or4n9e, why are you tring to do this? | 23:11 |
| ed_debian | or4n9e, idk :( find the developer mailing list? | 23:11 |
| jakupl | guntbert : yes, it works locally, but Is there no chance to do it remotely, | 23:11 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: hm, don't you think it'll be possible giving the notifier a certain switch? | 23:12 |
| ed_debian | or4n9e, Explain to me this system you're building | 23:12 |
| or4n9e | Kalmi_: as I said, I'm building a custom BT4 beta build | 23:12 |
| ed_debian | or4n9e, Frankly no | 23:12 |
| eseven73 | If glxgears is running, that means my Restricted nvidia drivers are working? | 23:12 |
| guntbert | jakupl: the machine on 217.74.220.74 accepts ssh connections, is this "your" router already? | 23:12 |
| ed_debian | yeah what is that? | 23:12 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: BT4? you'd like to know what it is or what? | 23:13 |
| jakupl | guntbert: no.. this is what I get from myip | 23:13 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: it's a pentesting distribution based on Intrepid | 23:14 |
| ed_debian | or4n9e, Yeah what is BT4? When you say custom do you mean you compiled your own kernel? | 23:14 |
| guntbert | jakupl: and "your" router has a "private" ip-address? | 23:14 |
| Kalmi_ | jakupl: You router's web interface will tell you its external ip address... If that is that same as what you get from myip than it should be all fine | 23:14 |
| jakupl | guntbert: it is not the same | 23:14 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: nope, I'm customizing the desktop environment and build some functionality upon the base | 23:14 |
| ed_debian | or4n9e, I see | 23:14 |
| guntbert | jakupl: the you are out of luck, I'm afraid | 23:15 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: I.e. switching from KDE to GNOME | 23:15 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: Hm, In jaunty --force seems to work for getting past the system-user check :/ | 23:15 |
| Kalmi_ | jakupl: consult with your network administrator | 23:15 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: really? | 23:15 |
| jakupl | guntbert: eerhh.. I have... waiting for a reply.. tanks very much guys. | 23:15 |
| Thon | really what | 23:15 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: that's interesting :) | 23:15 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: Aye, the code said it should work, so.... ;) | 23:15 |
| ed_debian | or4n9e, That's very cool. Good luck with your notifier problem! | 23:15 |
| or4n9e | Thon: look three lines above | 23:16 |
| guntbert | jakupl: good luck | 23:16 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: what version of the notifier? | 23:16 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: thanks | 23:16 |
| qdii | hello. Shutting down my laptop causes it to reboot when AC is plugged in... anyone encountered this before ? | 23:16 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: maybe there's something in intrepid-backports ) | 23:17 |
| axisys | why is the proftpd xferlog timestamp 1 hour behind the OS time ? (asked in proftpd chnl as well) | 23:17 |
| === SirDerigo is now known as Guest71649 | ||
| ed_debian | Your os is probably reading the hardware clock incorrectly | 23:17 |
| === DebrisRat is now known as DebrisRat_away | ||
| === john is now known as Severity1 | ||
| kmdm | or4n9e: Aha, yes, in the jaunty update-notifier the if block does if(system_user() && !FORCE_START) but in intrepid it's just if(system_user()) - which probably doesn't help you :S | 23:17 |
| jthomas | next question | 23:17 |
| Kalmi_ | axisys, time saving? | 23:17 |
| axisys | ed_debian: it is in ubuntu server .. and date shows correct time | 23:17 |
| jthomas | how do you kill a shell command after it's been run | 23:17 |
| steve_ | join rune | 23:17 |
| axisys | but proftpd xferlog shows 1 hr behind | 23:18 |
| erUSUL | jthomas: crtl + c | 23:18 |
| jthomas | erUSUL: thanks | 23:18 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: I'm just wondering why an application won't let the user decide if something makes sense or not - reminds me of windoze | 23:18 |
| Vitor | owwww look that: http://bit.ly/3IAz4E | 23:18 |
| libtech | i am getting laggy video playback on youtube | 23:18 |
| ed_debian | or4n9e, I just suspect that none of the people that wrote the code for update - notifier would expect somebody to need to run it as root (since that is bad practice). IDK it was just my speculation. | 23:18 |
| axisys | Kalmi_: why would proftpd going one hr behind.. the ubuntu date shows the correct time | 23:19 |
| guntbert | axisys: it could be that proftpd log in UTC and you are in UK with DST? | 23:19 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: that explains a lot ;) we're talking about what version of update-notifier in jaunty? | 23:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | axisys, i had the same problem with proftpd a long time ago - don't remember if i even fixed it... seem to remember it being something in proftpd's config file. best of luck. | 23:19 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: 0.76.7 | 23:19 |
| ed_debian | axisys, That program is probably reading the hardware time directly (as does ubuntu) and ubuntu is probably compensating for your time zone / daylight savings or something | 23:19 |
| axisys | guntbert: i am on EST .. so should proftpd be | 23:20 |
| manpoole | how do i find out what cpu i have through the terminal? | 23:20 |
| q0_0p | ubuntu crashed while deleting gigs worth of data, how can i retrieve my space back that i deleted? | 23:20 |
| manpoole | whats the command? | 23:20 |
| or4n9e | ed_debian: in general you're absolutely right here. but there should be at least a switch --force to do it anyway imho | 23:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | manpoole, "cat /proc/cpuinfo" | 23:20 |
| or4n9e | which is obviously the case in jaunty but not in intrepid | 23:20 |
| guntbert | axisys: ok, was only a wild idea :) | 23:20 |
| axisys | ed_debian: hmmm .. no reply from proftpd channel.. ZykoticK9 let me know if you ever remember how u fixed it.. | 23:20 |
| ed_debian | or4n9e, Agreed | 23:20 |
| axisys | guntbert: :-) | 23:20 |
| axisys | ed_debian: how do I check my hardware clock ? | 23:21 |
| ed_debian | idk, google it | 23:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | axisys, i don't run proftpd anymore so i got nothing. i was just letting you know that "your no alone". good luck man. | 23:21 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: I'll try installing the jaunty notifier then | 23:21 |
| axisys | ZykoticK9: thnx | 23:21 |
| ed_debian | axisys, read man clock | 23:21 |
| axisys | ed_debian: ok | 23:21 |
| or4n9e | although this introduces loads of other problems | 23:21 |
| libtech | i am getting laggy video playback on youtube | 23:21 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: Yeah, or you could patch the intrepid one and rebuild the package etc... | 23:22 |
| unop | axisys, hwclock | 23:22 |
| ed_debian | libtech, Do you mean that the video plays poorly or that the audio / video doesn't sync up (people talk after they've spoken) | 23:22 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: Just depends if you want custom packages kicking about... :) | 23:22 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: indeed. could you tell me how to build a deb pacakge for ubuntu the easy way? | 23:22 |
| or4n9e | I'm debian newcomer, ex suse | 23:22 |

| libtech | ed_debian: it seems im getting a low frame rate. the sound is fine however. | 23:23 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: Ah, I'd definitely recommend pbuilder | 23:23 |
| q0_0p | how do i delete data that messed up when ubuntu crashed while deleting? | 23:23 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: if it needs to be... could one "lock" certain packages, e.g. the rebuild one using apt-get/synaptic | 23:23 |
| or4n9e | ? | 23:23 |
| ed_debian | libtech, What flash player are you using? Free or non-free? | 23:23 |
| kmdm | !pbuilder | or4n9e | 23:23 |
| ubottu | or4n9e: pbuilder is a system to easily build packages in a clean chroot environment. To get started with PBuilder, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto | 23:23 |

| libtech | ed_debian: i have flashplugin-nonfree installed | 23:24 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: that's perfectly fine, thx a lot for your support | 23:24 |
| ed_debian | libtech, Do you know what top is? | 23:24 |
| AdamVidars | any program for linux that opens .rar files? | 23:24 |
| ed_debian | AdamVidars, unrar | 23:24 |
| AdamVidars | ty | 23:25 |
| ed_debian | AdamVidars, Next time search synaptic | 23:25 |
| libtech | ed_debian: im not sure what you mean | 23:25 |
| ed_debian | libtech top is a program for linux that monitors your system | 23:25 |
| ed_debian | run sudo apt-get install top | 23:25 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: I actually looked at the sourcecode of jaunty notifier andd wondered why --force wont work | 23:25 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: good example that you need to be very specific whenever possiblee | 23:26 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: hehe yea, I can see how that would have been somewhat confusing ;) | 23:26 |
| axisys | ed_debian: http://pastebin.com/f1ecfce42 dont understand this | 23:26 |
| libtech | ed_debian: it says it couldnt find package top | 23:26 |
| libtech | ed_debian: is that the correct package name? | 23:26 |
| erUSUL | ed_debian: libtech top is installed by default as part of a core package | 23:27 |

| === TehBrayn is now known as TheBrayn | ||
| ed_debian | libtech, just run top (since it is installed) | 23:27 |
| erUSUL | libtech: but htop is a similar much nicer program you can install aswell | 23:27 |
| axisys | ed_debian: i am always confused about which clock to pick.. hardware clock or system clock .. and why are they different on same box ? | 23:27 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: btw, have you ever used BT4 yet? | 23:28 |
| axisys | ed_debian: and how to keep it stick followed by a power cycle ? | 23:28 |
| axisys | ed_debian: and reboot | 23:28 |
| ed_debian | axisys, I have no idea (since the os can set the clock) why not just set it and use it? Instead linux creates a system clock (based on hardware clock) with +1 hour or something if it is wrong | 23:28 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: You'll find the search on http://packages.ubuntu.com useful for identifying versions... :) And nope, not used BT4 yet... | 23:28 |

| or4n9e | kmdm: I see... I'm not that much an ubuntu newcomer, already used hoary a few yers back but then switched to suse. thus I'm just not that familiar with building packages and stuff for debian but the basics are available | 23:30 |
| or4n9e | lol | 23:30 |
| or4n9e | but ubuntu really rocks | 23:30 |
| or4n9e | very friendly community as it seems | 23:31 |
| === Guest59216 is now known as SirDerigo | ||
| guntbert | axisys: OSes treat the clocks differently: windows expects the HW Clock to be in "actual" local time (incl DST), whereas unix expects it to run in UTC and calculates the correct local time by info about the local time zone | 23:31 |

| Xcell | libtech- thats a nice little machine.. | 23:38 |
| ed_debian | libtech, Yeah that is exactly the problem. Adobe's proprietary flash player (the one you're using) is poorly written for linux and is a resource hog. | 23:38 |
| libtech | Xcell: it sure is :) | 23:38 |
| guntbert | mari_: ask your question please - all in one line | 23:38 |
| Xcell | and it should be ok if you have enough ram.. 1.6 gig is plenty | 23:38 |
| coolkourt | is there any way to extend the size of a partition in Gparted? | 23:39 |
| libtech | I also have 2GB ram | 23:39 |
| or4n9e | ah, there's another thing I'm wondering about currently | 23:39 |
| linduxed | erUSUL: well i know that when i play UT2004 in windows i get 200-300 FPS, in linux i get 10-60 | 23:39 |
| ed_debian | coolkourt, Yes but you can't be mounted on said filesystem | 23:39 |
| libtech | ed_debian: which flash player should i use instead? | 23:39 |
| or4n9e | maybe you could be of some help here as well | 23:39 |
| linduxed | erUSUL: catastrophic in other words | 23:39 |
| Xcell | did you install restricted extras...or just flash plugin | 23:39 |
| or4n9e | figured out tht ubuntu uses fstab-sync | 23:39 |
| === darlek_____ is now known as darlek | ||
| coolkourt | ed_debian: so i would have to unmount the drive, then open the program and try? | 23:40 |
| ed_debian | libtech, There isn't really a good answer to that. There is an open source player (swfdec or something) but it doesn't work with all flash media you might encounter. | 23:40 |
| erUSUL | linduxed: well i dunno; my 7300GT performs more or less like in windows | 23:40 |
| ed_debian | coolkourt, Yes (a live Cd is usually useful for something like this) | 23:40 |
| or4n9e | is it possible to exclude certain partitions from dynamical recreation of fstab without completely disabling fsta-sync? | 23:40 |
| ed_debian | libtech, It's in the flash-plugin-free package | 23:40 |
| libtech | ed_debian: ill check it out, thanks | 23:40 |
| coolkourt | ok so i would start ubuntu from the USB stick, then from live i would unmount the active and try to make it larger? | 23:40 |
| mari_ | When I log on ,my screenresulotion is set way too high. the logon and splah is also wrong resolution. Once inside xubuntu I turn the resolution down using the screen options. But the settings wont stick! When I restart it's all wrong again. And I cant turn off or log off. Say's the system Halted. So I have to use the power off button :d | 23:41 |
| racecar56 | can someone pastebin me a ubuntu 9.04 default sources.list? | 23:41 |
| or4n9e | some udev rule maybe? | 23:41 |
| ed_debian | coolkourt, yep that's basically it | 23:41 |
| Xcell | libtech- did you get that from newegg? | 23:41 |
| equivoc | hi | 23:41 |
| or4n9e | any documentation available somewhere? | 23:41 |
| coolkourt | ok thanks a lot ed_debian, hopefully i talk to u sooner than later | 23:41 |
| linduxed | erUSUL: where do i find solutions to this problem? | 23:41 |
| ed_debian | coolkourt, You should be able to irc from the live usb | 23:41 |
| coolkourt | k | 23:42 |
| libtech | Xcell: no, i got it from a seller on ebay. excaliberpc's i think. it was 370 shipped | 23:42 |

| zer0rez | what format is suggested for a 1 TB HDD I just added to my ubuntu box for media(music/photos/etc) | 23:47 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, ext4 | 23:48 |
| equivoc | erUSUL: thx, reading now | 23:48 |
| zer0rez | racecar56: cool, what i was guessing just making sure nothing has changed. | 23:48 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, if you use ubuntu 9.04 | 23:48 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, k | 23:48 |
| zer0rez | racecar56: yea 9.04 :) | 23:48 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, => | 23:48 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, ext4 is awesome | 23:48 |
| zer0rez | sweet, i've finally made the plunge all ubuntu at home | 23:48 |
| farchumbre | will windows programs using wine interact with ubuntu ones? my hard drive is ext4, will i be able to save files in the hard drive too? | 23:48 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, my horrible laptop booted in 2 seconds with it | 23:49 |
| usser | farchumbre, yes | 23:49 |
| erUSUL | farchumbre: yes | 23:49 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, and it is really weak | 23:49 |
| q0_0p | i want to say thanx for helping me out | 23:49 |
| zer0rez | racecar56: haha yea i love how fast it is | 23:49 |
| q0_0p | i did fsck when rebooting | 23:49 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, it only happened once though | 23:49 |
| q0_0p | and got my lost space back | 23:49 |
| racecar56 | =D | 23:49 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, im using a quite old comp now | 23:49 |
| erUSUL | q0_0p: no problem | 23:50 |
| racecar56 | zer0rez, it's a compaq sr1020nx | 23:50 |
| sidh | greetings gentle(wo)men | 23:50 |
| farchumbre | is there a way to remove pulseaudio? i have to killall pulseaudio everytime i reboot, otherwise sound doesn't work | 23:50 |
| Alex_ | Hey I've got 2 questions... I've been messing with ubuntu on an old laptop... but I just rebuilt my computer and I thought I'd install ubuntu on my old hard drive... When I install it, since it's on the second hard drive, will it affect my windows boot loader at all? And if I don't mount my main hard drive under ubuntu, if I accadentally do that rm -a / or whatever it was... will it affect the other drive. | 23:50 |
| eseven73 | how do you get the ext4? I didn't see any options or is it default in 9.04? | 23:50 |
| sidh | on a new laptop i've installed 9.04 amd64 version, but sound doesn't work | 23:50 |
| erUSUL | Alex_: depends on what hard drive you install grub | 23:50 |
| sidh | here i think i found the solution | 23:50 |
| sidh | http://www.linlap.com/wiki/hp-compaq+6830s | 23:51 |
| racecar56 | can someone pastebin me any ubuntu default sources.list? | 23:51 |
| sidh | but it was on 8.10 | 23:51 |
| racecar56 | it can even be a warty default sources.list | 23:51 |
| zer0rez | this is a custom built tower | 23:51 |
| racecar56 | :P | 23:51 |
| Alex_ | erUSUL: I'm saying I'm giving the entire secondary hard drive to ubuntu. If I tell it to install on that it shouldn't affect the windows boot which is on the other drive should it? | 23:51 |
| eseven73 | how do you get the ext4? I didn't see any options or is it default in 9.04? | 23:51 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, ext3 is default >:( | 23:51 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, i wish it was ext4 | 23:51 |
| zer0rez | trying to figure out what laptop i should get that is small and lightweight(going back and forth between small notebook and netbook) | 23:51 |
| eseven73 | how do I get ext4? | 23:52 |
| sidh | and on 9.04 it does not seem to have /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base | 23:52 |
| erUSUL | racecar56: delete the one you have System<Administration>software Sources should be able to generate a new default one | 23:52 |
| sidh | do i have to create it | 23:52 |
| farchumbre | does wine use many memory and hard drive resources? | 23:52 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, mkfs | 23:52 |
| sidh | or is there an equivalent file | 23:52 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, P | 23:52 |
| sidh | ? | 23:52 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, of course, taht formats | 23:52 |
| eseven73 | racecar56, ick | 23:52 |
| unop | farchumbre, depends on what it is running .. | 23:52 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, so don't run it on a partition that has data | 23:52 |
| Alex_ | erUSUL: I'm saying I'm giving the entire secondary hard drive to ubuntu. If I tell it to install on that it shouldn't affect the windows boot which is on the other drive should it? | 23:52 |
| eseven73 | ill just stick with ext3 | 23:52 |
| erUSUL | farchumbre: hard drive the same as in windows... memory a little more | 23:52 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, some say that you can convert ext3 to 4 but don't try, stay ext3. next time you get a chance to format it then do it | 23:53 |
| erUSUL | Alex_: no it shouldn't, (chhose manually where to install grub ) but you will have to use bios to change boot order | 23:53 |
| Ron586 | xcell: sorry? | 23:53 |
| farchumbre | erUSUL: does wine use resources also if I am not running any windows program? | 23:53 |
| erUSUL | farchumbre: no | 23:53 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: cool, just read your messages - been afk :) Yea, I really like pbuilder there's also a neat packaging guide too, let me dig that up | 23:53 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, but if you are satisfied with ext3 then stick with it, ext4 is just faster/newer | 23:53 |
| eseven73 | racecar56, I don't even see where to format it to ext4 | 23:53 |
| sidh | find / -name alsa-base tells me /usr/share/alsa-base | 23:54 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, mkfs, sorry | 23:54 |
| Alex_ | erUSUL: That's what I figured... but I wanted to make sure before I did it. | 23:54 |
| farchumbre | is there any way to completely remove pulseaudio? | 23:54 |
| sidh | is it the new place | 23:54 |
| usser | farchumbre, no it doesnt | 23:54 |
| sidh | ? | 23:54 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, or manual partition setup | 23:54 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete :) | 23:54 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, i always do that | 23:54 |
| kmdm | or4n9e: Between that and pbuilder you should be well on your way | 23:54 |
| eseven73 | racecar56 oh ok thanks | 23:54 |
| racecar56 | can someone pastebin me a default /etc/apt/sources.list? | 23:54 |
| racecar56 | for ubuntu | 23:54 |
| eseven73 | you'd think Ubuntu would have an ext4 option | 23:54 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, of course, as we know, ext4 is for 9.04+ | 23:55 |
| nonZero | I have a VERY strange networking problem: once in a while (but quite often) suddenly a http request won't work: the url in firefox will get 10% of the file and same in wget (!). my ISP sais it has no proxy, and I can get the same url easily on another PC in my lan. | 23:55 |
| eseven73 | racecar56, I was refering to 9.04 | 23:55 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, 8.10 is too old (which is dumb, ext4 existed in that time, in fact it could have been for edgy | 23:55 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, ya | 23:55 |
| sidh | no it seems it is a directory | 23:55 |
| erUSUL | nonZero: both pc on the lan use the same router to get out to internet ? | 23:56 |
| nonZero | (I am on 8.10) Any idea if ubuntu has some kind of HTTP cache? | 23:56 |
| lstarnes | nonZero: squid is one | 23:56 |
| nonZero | erUSUL: YES! | 23:56 |
| cruz | holaaa | 23:56 |
| erUSUL | nonZero: ? confused... do no know what may be | 23:56 |
| ruler | i have installed ubuntu into 60 gb without patisioning can i partision it now | 23:56 |
| eseven73 | ok so let me get this straight, there's only one way to get ext4 in Ubuntu and that's mkfs? | 23:57 |
| racecar56 | ruler, cant install without partitioning | 23:57 |
| lstarnes | nonZero: that may be some sort of router bug | 23:57 |
| t_ | Hey, is anyone free to help me? | 23:57 |
| racecar56 | eseven73, either that or pick it in manual mode | 23:57 |
| Flannel | racecar56: you can with wubi | 23:57 |
| racecar56 | t_ !ask | 23:57 |
| nonZero | lstarnes: how can I prove it? | 23:57 |
| racecar56 | !ask | t_ | 23:57 |
| ubottu | t_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:57 |

| === Turtl3 is now known as TurtleP | ||
| racecar56 | Flannel, yeah | 23:57 |
| erUSUL | racecar56: well the main developer of ext4 asked ubuntu devs to *not* enable ext4 by default in jaunty (they have planned to do it) | 23:57 |
| lstarnes | nonZero: or it may be a driver issue, if it's affecting just one pc | 23:57 |
| or4n9e | kmdm: I'll try that soon. I have some other weir issues here currently | 23:57 |
| racecar56 | ruler, that will wipe you hard drive | 23:57 |
