[00:00] how do I remove all +.mp3 files from a directory and it's subs. I tried "sudo rm -R *.mp3" but it said it did not delete any files. [00:00] Pixels: and restoring files from encrypted partitions hummm, now that could be an issue [00:00] I have a broken package, python2.6-minimal, that is causing problems and I can't uninstall it through synaptic or apt-get. It just returns errors. http://paste.ubuntu.com/188619/ Is there another way to get rid of it? [00:00] Scunizi: cool [00:00] sebastien: wha you mean? [00:01] Pixels: you didn't encrypt your partition using alternate CD? [00:01] sebastien: i chose the encrypt the whole partition, using the alternative install [00:01] sebastien: yes.. installed using the alternate CD [00:01] fbc-mx: you have to give it the path and not be in the directory.. so sudo rm -Rf /home/you're-user-name/path-to-1st-directory/*mp3 [00:01] Pixels: well then as far as I know it might not be as simple as just putting in a Live CD and gaining access to the partition, however I haven't done encrypted partitions before [00:01] sebastien: then chose VLM encryption [00:02] sebastien: everytime I boot Ubuntu, it asks me for a password to unlock "crypt" [00:02] fbc-mx, find /path/to/directory -name "*.mp3" -type f -exec rm -v {} \; [00:02] Pixels: ok well hopefuly it will ask you for one, when you try to access it on the Live CD [00:02] sebastien: ok [00:02] brb [00:02] fbc-mx: unop 's suggestion would work better :) [00:03] the other suggestion wouldn't work :) [00:03] if I run gksudo gedit I get root gedit; where can I add plugins for that? tried /usr/share/gedit-2/plugins but didn't work, /usr/lib/gedit-2/plugins neither; nor did symlinking my user plugins folder to /root/.gnome2/gedit/plugins [00:03] wait, I have have to activate them, geez, brb [00:04] unop: I realized that after I hit enter.. thanks for fixing me :) [00:05] hi im trying to choose which cd to download [00:05] ive decided i want kubuntu [00:05] and i385 [00:05] ergZay: why? [00:05] is there a way to set backlight control to native in xorg.conf? [00:05] i386& [00:05] * [00:05] is there a libwbclient-dev package??? [00:05] ergZay: and you can install Kubuntu into a standard Ubuntu install [00:05] ergZay: have both [00:05] ergZay: you can even do Xubuntu as well [00:06] isnt kubuntu the same way? [00:06] sure [00:06] also edubuntu [00:06] anyway my question is, what exactly is on the alternative disks and the dvd disks of each? [00:06] Just to say, if anyone is having trouble with sound (as I have been since I started to use Ubuntu) point them to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 I'm now windows free! Thanks all! [00:06] Scunizi, that was probably my mistake, I was i nthe directory [00:06] and are tehre any other versions besides those [00:06] coz_: yep and that, and ubuntu studio, and fluxbox, and enlightment, and openbox, and so on :d [00:06] ergZay: some of the aps in kubuntu haven't been totally ported over to the new 4.x version yet.. so gnome is a little more complete [00:06] dkg, the alternate disk is usually for system with 256 megs of system memory or less [00:07] Scunizi: well i have the unbutu disk already but it seems to simple [00:07] coz_: lxde etc :d [00:07] ergZay: on purpose :) [00:07] theres no graphical samba share setup utility [00:07] for example [00:07] or more advanced display setup [00:07] sebastien, lxde is still pretty buggie though :) [00:07] i have fancy displays [00:07] coz_: don't think I have tried it yet [00:07] I'm dual booting Ubuntu and FreeBSD, but I need to add FreeBSD to the GRUB menu, anyone know how? [00:07] swoody: of course [00:07] ergZay: what ever you want is the bottom line.. go for it.. [00:07] sebastien, its fast if nothing else [00:08] swoody: gksudo /boot/grub/menu.lst [00:08] Anybody know how to get sound to work in ubuntu 9? [00:08] Can someone help me with a backlight issue Jaunty? [00:08] swoody: oh put gedit in that [00:08] swoody: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst [00:08] Can anyone explain what Ubuntu has stuffed up in there netbook respin. Netbooks idea is small cheap. So why respin need more resources than default. [00:08] whats is the kernal version for ubuntu desktop 8.04 LTS [00:08] Scunizi: well what is on the alternative disks and the dvd disks, and are there any other dvds or cds? [00:08] swoody: yes it's rather easy really just haev to remember the third part of the devices and such [00:08] m45h: if you have it installed do uname -r [00:08] sebsebseb kitche what do I add to the menu, then? [00:09] 2.6.24-23-server [00:09] m45h, you can also check http://packages.ubuntu.com [00:09] swoody: similar to the Ubuntu entry, just change it, for the other partition [00:09] can anyone tell me what is on the alternative disks and dvd disks? and are there any other special dvds/cds? [00:09] swoody: and the name or you might get confussed [00:09] sebsebseb: no where near like the Ubuntu entry [00:09] ergZay, The alternative discs install ubuntu only [00:09] I'm having seemingly random complete freezes that do not respond to any input. [00:09] They are not live CD's meaning you cannot run the OS from them (like I said only install it) [00:09] swoody: well I assume it's like booting another Linux distro, when it comes to FreeBSD, but by the sounds of what kitche is saying I might be wrong [00:10] kitche: you can help him [00:10] ed_debian: but there are alternative kubuntu disks... [00:10] swoody: copy the Ubuntu entry that is there but you need to change root so it goes liek root (hdX, a) for the root part and the kernel is /boot/loader [00:10] ergZay, That install kubuntu instead. What is the mystery?? [00:11] ed_debian: ok, so whats on the dvds? do they live boot and have the extra features of alternative? [00:11] kitche: ok, well I actually just wrote over the Fedora I had installed with FreeBSD, so would I just rename the Fedora entry to 'FreeBSD' and leave the rest alone? [00:11] ed_debian: i'm looking for a disk that can do live boot and LVM management which i think is on the alternative disks [00:11] ergZay, I am not aware of a live DVD? IDK. The point though of the alternative discs though is that they are not LIve CD's [00:11] geirha, sorry how to use funcation command ? [00:11] swoody: no you need to edit root and the kernel lines [00:11] Anybody there that can tell me how to get sound in ubnut 9? [00:12] swoody: what does the root line say for the old fedora lin [00:12] does anyone know of any disks that can do LVM management and can live boot? [00:12] Henri does it make any sound at all? === David____ is now known as killgorack [00:12] ergZay, There are software packages that let you create your own live discs [00:12] swoody: virtual machines :) so much better than dual or triple or whatever boot, normalley [00:12] ergZay, with whatever you want on them [00:13] swoody: when trying out Linux or BSD [00:13] Hey, does anyone know how to get banshee to sync a PSP?? [00:13] kitche: (hd0,2) - I also have openSuse installed on (hd0,1) [00:13] sebsebseb: haha, but where's the sense of adventure in that?? [00:13] How do I get my wireless card to show up in ifconfig as something like wlan0, rather than eth1, as it's shown now? [00:13] swoody: well it would be root (hd0,a) [00:13] swoody: and the kerne;l line should read /boot/loader [00:13] swoody: I suppouse, but nice to have a good host OS, and then try other OS's out in it [00:14] ed_debian: i realize that but im wondering if tehre are any stock cd/dvds that have it [00:14] helper, function foo() { echo "hello world"; }; foo [00:14] ergZay, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#alternate [00:14] kitche: ok, so change it to (hd0,a), and the kernel to '/boot/loader' and that's it? [00:14] swoody: only thing with doing that though, is you woudn't know how well it would really run on your hardware if it was psyically installed [00:14] unop, thx [00:14] ergZay, Not that I know of but probably check out http://www.distrowatch.com [00:14] sebsebseb: true, true [00:15] Hello [00:15] how do you reset the screen resolution on ubuntu or activate the nvidia drivers if you get a blurred tripple image on the screen? [00:15] sebsebseb: I just like playing around ;) [00:15] swoody: pretty much :) jsut be glad your not usuing grub on FreeBSD itself it's a bit different for that [00:15] kitche: haha, ok, well I'll give it a try and reboot :) thanks! [00:15] swoody: yeah same here, and my partition set up and that is a bit uh. so I am better off doing most of my playing around with vm's [00:15] swoody: doing that again soon, anyway off topic now [00:15] how do you reset the screen resolution on ubuntu or activate the nvidia drivers if you get a blurred tripple image on the screen? [00:15] ah, gotcha, well thanks again sebsebseb :) [00:15] Can you extract a .deb package with 7zip on Windows? [00:16] Brack10: why would you want to? [00:16] Has anyone tried to sync a PSP with banshee? [00:16] finally on 9.04!! [00:16] Brack10, you need a utilty that can extract ar archives [00:16] thanks for the help all ;) [00:16] sebsebseb: KDE icons [00:16] cabrey: ok thanks [00:16] anyone? [00:16] cabrey: you mean tar? [00:16] Brack10: I expect you can get KDE icons from something else, but KDE icons on Windows hummmm [00:16] Brack10, no ar [00:17] Brack10, I believe winrar can extract ar archives [00:17] sebsebseb: great free public domain icons... [00:17] unop: Winrar ewww [00:17] sebsebseb: useful for all sorts of things [00:17] Hello. I am having trouble getting flash videos on the internet to work on firefox. I had the adobe flash player installed and according to the adobe website (the page where you can test whether your flash is working) it works fine, but flash doesn't play in any other website except youtube (with very poor performance) I decided to install Gnash for mozilla with the synaptic package manager, but I get the same result. What would you recommend? [00:18] sebsebseb Brack10: I don't know what format KDE's icons are in, but for gnome, it's pngs, which are easy to convert to .ico kiconedit, for example. [00:18] is there a file that lists available updates? [00:18] sebsebseb, if you're unfortunate enough to be stuck on windows .. winrar is kind of a blessing. [00:18] Brack10: your asking about WIndows really, and so #ubuntu-offtopic ##windows [00:18] unop: no way not when there are programs such as 7-zip :) [00:18] kitche: nope, "bad file or directory type" [00:19] hey, anyone know of an Ubuntu-based distro designed for fast boots? [00:19] sebsebseb, 7zip .. ewww :) [00:19] onexused: png and svg are fine, I have inkscape and gimp [00:19] unop: no way, it's open source :) [00:19] Spi_Waterwing, uhm 9.04? [00:19] unop: no GUI version for Linux though, but the commandline one will do it, and the Windows GUI version can run in Wine anyway [00:19] sebsebseb, yes there is :) [00:19] sebsebseb: The only problem I have with 7zip is that .tar.bz2 archives etc. aren't extracted all at once. They have to be decompressed, then untarred, as far as I've been able to figure out. [00:19] cabrey: is there? [00:19] swoody: opps forgot another thing [00:19] cabrey: what's the standard load time? I'm looking for something that will get me to FF in under 15 seconds [00:19] sebsebseb, ok, imo, that's no validation for it being good. [00:19] cabrey: been a while since I used it, quite a while in fact [00:19] sebsebseb, in qt [00:20] cabrey: 7-zip that is [00:20] how do i get ubuntu server working on a hp mediasmart ex475 [00:20] swoody: root (hd0,2,a) :) been a while sicne I setup grub for freebsd sicne I just use freebsd without a bootloader [00:20] kitche: ok, thanks :) [00:20] Brack10, Brack10 http://windows.kde.org/ [00:20] Spi_Waterwing, oh in that case I don't think any OS will do it besides very specialized distros [00:21] chuck_: that's only some of the KDE apps, not the GUI [00:21] sebsebseb, yes q7z is a frontend for 7zip written in C++/Qt [00:21] anyway, is a media not so smart a nas? [00:21] chuck_: not the desktop GUI [00:21] Anyone have experience creating a liveusb distro? [00:21] There's something that is unclear on the wiki. [00:21] kitche: ok, will try again :) [00:21] pyr3, making a liveusb drive? or a custom one? [00:22] I have a problem with my laptop (I think it's a problem in the BIOS), my brightness settings are inverted; when I set brightness to 0 it's full brightness, this happens in all OSs except Win XP which was installed on it, the problem also happens on Windows Vista, is there a way to fix this in Xconf? [00:22] unop: some opensource isn't that good, but really all closed source software is bad, because it's closed source, even the stuff that is pretty usuable [00:22] When partitioning the device it says that you can "create a storage partition", but what if I create more partitions than just the storage part and the livedistro part? [00:22] question for whoever can answer it: why does transmission download files i unchecked for download? [00:22] How do I get my wireless card to show up in ifconfig as something like wlan0, rather than eth1, as it's shown now? [00:22] My USB drive is 32GB.. I don't need all of that for the distro [00:22] pyr3, what for? [00:22] pyr3, ahh [00:22] sebsebseb, thanks for the info [00:22] sebsebseb, errr, i disagree .. anyway [00:22] chuck_: np [00:23] pyr3, you could partition it the way liveusb-creator wants, then edit it later [00:23] I wanted to create a 2GB Fat32, 3GB liveusb, rest ext2 [00:23] unop: I think you need to read more of Richard Stallman :) anyway off topic [00:23] Scunizi: what apps havent been ported to 4.x KDE? [00:23] I'm manually doing this. I've customized the packages ,etc. [00:23] unop: oh yeah and he would be saying that free software and open source are differnet, but really they are nearly the same thing [00:23] Scunizi: and can i use KDE 3.x with ubuntu 9? [00:23] Now I need to partition, but the wiki is unclear how the distro will handle multiple other partitions. [00:23] How do I cancel BlueTooth? [00:23] or anyone else [00:24] pyr3, you mean how the live distro will handle them? it will automatically mount them [00:24] elad`, you want to disable bluetooth? [00:24] kitche: nope, still "Error 2: Bad File or Entry type" [00:24] Yes. [00:24] cabrey: Ok. I guess I will have to fiddle with it. I want one of them mounted on /home [00:25] what apps havent been ported to 4.x KDE? [00:25] elad`, System > Administration > Services [00:25] and can i use KDE 3.x with ubuntu 9? [00:25] Thanks. :) [00:25] chuck_: Konqueror in Windows wasn't that bad when I tried it [00:25] swoody: well you need to figure out what's wrong since if it's on the second partition it should be hd0,2 but the a could be different [00:25] chuck_: going back to the apps link [00:26] ergZay: you can [00:26] anyone? [00:26] kitche: well first partition is Ubuntu (hd0,0), openSuse is second partition (hd0,1), and BSD should be 3rd partition (hd0,2) right? [00:26] kitche: the second partition to grub is 1 not 2, grub counts from 0 [00:26] Why would I want to run klogd? [00:26] And sysklogd? [00:27] elad`, please do not mess with those services, they are meant for logging purposes [00:27] ergZay: I think there's a way to install KDE3 apps from the repo [00:27] mdm: yes I know [00:27] Also, why would I have both acpid and apmd? Both are called "Power Management". Aren't they redundant? [00:27] !kde3 | ergZay [00:27] ergZay: Kubuntu 8.04 ships with KDE3 and full support. Jaunty does not include KDE3 but a remix install CD can be obtained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty . This is not officially supported. Support, instructions and ways to contribute can be found on the wiki page [00:28] swoody: correct for my system I would use hd0,0,a for my root line [00:28] there is no space either between the 2,a so if you have one get rid of it [00:29] elad`, if your motherboard was made before the year 2000, don't disable apmd [00:29] hey guys, anyone knows how i can add a mirror here : http://i40.tinypic.com/a9teuo.jpg [00:29] kitche: nope, no spaces in there === infomomo is now known as InfoMoMo [00:29] It's more of an extra repo i guess [00:29] kitche: it's "(hd0,2,a)" [00:29] cabrey, and if it was? Do I gain anything in performance? [00:30] Hello. Is it possible to get help with my firefox. It will not play flash movies on the internet [00:30] elad`, if it was made before the year 2000, do NOT disable it [00:30] StevensUbuntuTri: you need to install Flash, did you? [00:30] elad`, for reference: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=775532 === bluesmoke_ is now known as Amaranth [00:30] can anyone tell me what is in the dvds? [00:30] got some questions about developer tools in linux [00:30] the wiki doesnt say anywhere about it [00:30] Vldp9qji, go ahead [00:30] ergZay: the Ubuntu DVD's have some extra language packs, and that seems to be it [00:30] is it JUST other language support (as ive heard) or is it other things [00:31] I installed flash. It used to work, but no longer. I am not sure what I did to make it not work [00:31] ergZay: apparnatly only extra languages [00:31] I reinstalled flash several times === joshua__ is now known as joshuaBoshi [00:31] last time i installed linux was close to 1995 [00:31] sebsebseb: that seems kind wierd [00:31] StevensUbuntuTri, is the plugin enabled in Firefox? [00:31] kind of* [00:31] !flash | StevensUbuntuTri [00:31] StevensUbuntuTri: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [00:31] ergZay: not at all, since it's Ubuntu, and not another distro such as for example Fedora [00:31] Tools > Add-ons [00:31] for start: what is "gcc" in windows? [00:32] Vldp9qji: gcc is a compiler [00:32] ahhh [00:32] for C [00:32] ubottu: I will check. Since that time I installed Gnash to give that a try, but had the same result. I will check [00:32] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:32] StevensUbuntuTri: check if the plugins are in the correct directories [00:32] cc is actually a compiler for C/C++/ among other languages [00:32] ergZay: Ubuntu does not come with that much on the 700MB or so CD, but enough for there not to be room for addiotnal languages hence the DVD [00:32] Vldp9qji, g++ is an extension to gcc which allows you to compile C++ [00:33] StevensUbuntuTri: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins most likely [00:33] ubottu: Ok, That I am not sure-----you read my mind. Thank you [00:33] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:33] ergZay: Ubuntu is not Fedora for example, where people can install loads of packages when they firsti nstall [00:33] !ubottu | StevensUbuntuTri [00:33] StevensUbuntuTri: Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [00:33] ergZay: from the DVD [00:34] why #ubuntu has sooo many people on it?? is ubuntu that buggy? [00:34] Dillizar: heh [00:34] has anyone here had any experiences with shockwave player in firefox? [00:34] cc is a unix C compiler gcc is gnus version of it. [00:34] sebastien, i am asking this questions since the first moment i installed it [00:34] mdm, cc is a link to gcc [00:34] Tjsail33: you need the Windows version or some such for Shockwave in Wine, but then it may not work that well, here's one for #winehq really [00:35] Dillizar: you just installed Ubuntu first time? [00:35] cc is unixwares compiler, its linked to gcc on some linux systems [00:35] Dillizar: Ubuntu is the most used Desktop GNU/Linux distribution, hence why there are so many people in ehre [00:35] sebastien, no 6.06 was the first one for me [00:35] nice. gcc (linux) == cl.exe (windows) [00:35] how do i do "sudo apt-get install rtl8187se-source" if my ubuntu computer is not online? Can I download the required file from my WinXP computer and put it on my Ubuntu computer via USB stick somewhere? [00:35] hi, do smb knows how to acces in ssh to a server?

[00:36] visual studio (windows == ? (linux)? [00:36] what's the comand in Ubuntu to show all partitions? [00:36] df -h [00:36] fdisk -l [00:37] Vldp9qji, depends on which language you code in [00:37] df will just show the usage of mouned partitions [00:37] gtk and/or qt -> correct? [00:37] c++ [00:37] moi aussi Tyler i am here to do that and kill time my flight is late 2.5h so i can help too [00:37] Vldp9qji, GTK has bindings to C, Qt has bindings to Qt [00:37] Qt has bindings to C++* [00:37] Dillizar: ok, I'm always here, and help out every now and then when I've got spare time [00:38] Tyler: A bot. Really. Ok what is the next step? [00:38] cabrey: not "has bindings", *is* :) [00:38] Vldp9qji: do you mean the development enviromnet? look up kdevelop [00:38] Dillizar: can you take the chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please [00:38] Chousuke, my mistake, I always get these keywords mixed up :) [00:38] cabrey: though technically, Qt is C++ with some Qt-specific extensions [00:39] but it gets preprocessed into plain C++ [00:39] one concern with linux is the many options starting with desktop environment. for example, do the IDE/tools run in all desktop (gnome, kde)? [00:39] Chousuke, somehow *is* doesn't work too well there [00:39] StevensUbuntuTri: not sure, gotta run now... maybe someone else can give you a hand. [00:39] unop: might be. [00:39] Vldp9qji, yes [00:39] StevensUbuntuTri: you might want to look at libflashsupport if you haven't got it already [00:39] windows has win32 and mfc [00:40] s/has bindings/is implemented in/ [00:40] gtk (linux) == mfc (windows)? [00:40] <|ntegra|> I don't know what to call those things in the bottom panel that show what windows/apps are open [00:40] Vldp9qji, for you it would be Qt because Qt uses C++ [00:40] Vldp9qji: windows has win32? [00:41] how about gtk+? [00:41] <|ntegra|> how can i have them on the top panel? [00:41] how do I check to see which version of ATI fglrx drivers I have loaded? [00:41] gtk does not understand c++? === dylan_ is now known as Blindskull13 [00:41] Vldp9qji: no, hence c++ wrappers, e.g., gtkmm [00:41] Vldp9qji: this is getting a bit offtopic for here [00:41] Jupp: xdpyinfo might help [00:42] Vldp9qji, gtk/gtk+ same thing, names are interchangeable [00:42] |ntegra|, right click an empty area, then Add to panel, and add window list [00:42] cabrey, actually Gtk+ is a new version (2 i believe) [00:42] problem with qt is the cost [00:42] StevensUbuntuTri, could you repeat what your problem is? [00:43] whats the best ide/ui toolkit in linux? [00:43] Vldp9qji, it is licensed under the LGPL now, no cost anymore [00:43] <|ntegra|> thanx heaps "aah, window list" [00:43] !best | Vldp9qji [00:43] Vldp9qji: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task.

[00:43] raylu: thought someone would do that [00:43] |ntegra|, np :) [00:44] Vldp9qji: also, trying to draw parellels between linux and windows is a fundamentally flawed approach, imo [00:44] im come from visual studio environment [00:44] Vldp9qji: see http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm === chaky_ is now known as chaky [00:45] Jupp: oh, wait, version? [00:45] raylu: yes I like that link to :) [00:45] Jupp: aptitude show fglrx, or whatever the package name is [00:45] !mono | Vldp9qji [00:45] Sorry, I don't know anything about mono [00:45] !info monodevelop [00:45] monodevelop (source: monodevelop): Development Environment for GNOME.

[00:46] using k3b how do i burn mp3 [00:46] Problem #5: The myth of "user-friendly" is my favorite [00:46] Vldp9qji: a text editor and a compiler [00:46] Preplexed: by making a data CD? [00:46] Vldp9qji: and some of the X -dev packages [00:47] how about something a bit easier with buttons, etc. [00:47] then can i play this in normal cd player [00:47] buttons are easier? since when? [00:47] imma gonna ask again, whats the actual difference between nic bonding and bridging?

How can i create up the basic configuration files? i'm on jaunty amd64 [00:49] hello, i recently set up PulseAudio to work correctly on my computer but I am having an issue with skype - theres no audio out or audio in any more. can anyone help? [00:50] Kalmi: you dont happen to know it? :P [00:50] thanks for help [00:50] dimedo, have you tried running make in the directory? [00:51] bastidrazor: yes, it seems to complain about the missing config files [00:52] msekeris, I do... but wikipedia can probably explain it better.... [00:52] anybody know how to automate attachment saving in evolution? [00:53] Does Ubuntu normally leave older kernal versions around? [00:53] m45h: no [00:53] m45h: well it might have left one, if you did an upgrade [00:53] m45h: and it won't just remove old kernels when you install new ones [00:54] which would be more beneficial for someone who wants to use linux (ubuntu) and windows. virtualize linux on windows or virtualize windows on linux [00:54] basically my server came installed with kernal version 2.6.28.1 i need 2.6.24 kernals [00:54] are there any tricks to setting up cups-pdf on Jaunty? I can print to it, but it reports printer state "Idle - /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf failed" [00:54] how nice does ubuntu run on a ppc machine? [00:55] dimedo: uh... [00:55] dimedo: i'm pretty sure that's not how you install shorewall [00:55] simonea: install gnu and install qemu or wine.. [00:55] simonea: good question :) first of all which apps do they want on Windows? [00:55] dimedo: i was about to suggest autoreconf, but there definitely shouldn't be a Makefile in /etc [00:55] its early morning and very late for bedtime.. bye.. [00:55] simonea: as long as they aren't say 3D gaming, a Windows virtual machine inside Ubuntu should do the trick, however of course really should find alternatives to Windows programs first :) [00:56] simonea: most choose to virtualize windows on linux [00:56] simonea: use a virtual machine as a last resort, before a dual boot, and Wine before the virtual machine [00:56] sebsebseb: i use ms office and outlook on windows [00:56] simonea: since one of the two needs to be wiped clean more often [00:56] raylu: on aptitude installation it states: ERROR: Unable to find zones file [00:56] simonea: ok most of Office 2003 and it seems 2007 as well, will work pretty well in Wine, not sure about Outlook though [00:56] simonea: office and outlook are the easiest to replace [00:57] raylu: that's the same error make gives out [00:57] dimedo: remove whatever you downloaded and show me the entire output from aptitude, please [00:57] simonea: also Outlook is not that good anyway, and Linux has loads of good alternatives to Outlook and Microsoft Office [00:57] !office | simonea [00:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about office [00:57] sebsebseb: not so many alternatives to outlook server, though [00:57] raylu:i have some apps with macros for work that depend on office. [00:58] Kalmi: well i still dont get it, they both seem to be linking multiple nics back to 1 main interface with lb/failover? [00:58] raylu, egroupware is an alternative to exchange server [00:58] hey guys need help, i have a dual boot already,looking to triple boot vista,ubuntu and now windows 7 [00:58] how do i start [00:58] ed_debian: great. tell all the businesses to switch to that. [00:58] simonea: Open Office by default in Ubuntu and most other desktop Linux distros. KOffice is nice as well KDE one, Abiword like Microsoft Word, but without rubbish, well so it lacks certian advanced features that hardly anyone uses. Gnumeric a spreadsheet app [00:58] hello [00:58] Yankefish: install win7, reinstall grub [00:58] Yankefish, ubuntu should usually be the *last* install that way it sets up the bootloader correctly. windows' installer doesnt know how to do this. [00:58] simonea: Evolution I think can do most stuff Outlook can, and there's a development version of Thunderbird 3 that you could install from Mozilla yourself [00:58] raylu, I know, I'm just saying there are alternatives [00:58] can u boot on a older kernal on ubunu remote desktop [00:59] if I download ubuntu-9.04-dektop-i386, it will come with Compiz Fusion? [00:59] Can evolution be automated to download attachments? [00:59] simonea: Thunderbird 2 being ok, and that's more of an alternative to Outlook Express really, because lacks things such as calander, but there are programs for that anyway, Mozilla Sunbird for example [00:59] mib_1nd8i85z, yes === mib_1nd8i85z is now known as thea2 [00:59] mib_1nd8i85z, But you might not be able to run compiz fusion [00:59] Yankefish: why triple boot those? [00:59] Raylu can i make the new partitoubn using vista the install windows 7 then reinstall g [01:00] yankefish--- you can do it without un-installing anything [01:00] Yankefish: the windows 7 installer comes with a partitioner. i wouldn't trust them with handling extended partitions, though [01:00] its a pain, but i did it [01:00] i have vista, and ubuntu already lookign to add windows 7 [01:00] Compiz Fusion has a GUI for setting Window Rules, yes? [01:00] through ubuntu [01:00] !enter [01:00] Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [01:00] Yankefish: you should only let Vista resize it's own partitions, and I assume this applys to Windows 7 to [01:00] thea2, Yeah but you have to get it from the repos (CCSM) [01:01] thea2: yes [01:01] so can i make anew partition in vista and boot from cd and install win7 on that partition [01:01] Yankefish: otherwise possible dataloss, also you could virtual machine Windows 7 [01:01] ok [01:01] Yankefish: you can, but there's no reason to [01:01] Hey everyone, have a problem with sound that i'm hoping someone can help me out with? [01:01] Yankefish: again, the windows 7 installer comes with a partitioner [01:01] ah, thank you ed_debian (: [01:01] Yankefish: but i wouldn't trust either of them to handle extended partitions [01:01] np [01:01] Yankefish: i'd rather set up the partitions in linux [01:01] yeah i was thinking that raulu [01:01] Yankefish: that Windows 7 RC come 1st March 2010 and it will start shuting itself down every 2 hours, then stop working in June [01:02] Can you automate the saving of attachments from Evolution? [01:02] Yankefish: of course by then the real Windows 7 will be out anyway [01:02] you can use gnome partition editor to make another partition [01:02] kseise_, What do you mean automate? [01:02] ok thx guys [01:02] Blindskull13, Yes that is what it is for [01:02] blindskull13 yes [01:02] Yankefish: also Windows 7 is really just Vista with some changes, in fact it's even known as NT 6.1, where as Vista is known as NT 6.0, which confirms what I said [01:02] .. [01:03] Blindskull13_, What? [01:03] Ed_Debian I get an email weekly with an attachment that I need to save in a set location. I want to set a rule to have evolution save the attachment when it comes in. [01:03] sudo mv world > /dev/null && rejoice [01:03] sebsebsed win 7 is vista.... vista how it shoulda been [01:03] something weird is happening, i have access to FREENODE IRC, but not web pages :D [01:03] Hello? [01:03] gogeta: well Vista can run ok on this computer, and it's only 1GB RAM [01:03] hello rynerx [01:03] hello [01:03] gogeta, I think it is still missing the winfs file system that was promised [01:04] kseise_: maybe procmail will help, but I've never used Evolution so I can't help there. [01:04] help my dog is licking my leg [01:04] hello = jello for the damned [01:04] is there another channel i should go to for help or is this one ok? [01:04] Yankefish: what you can do is: new partition--> installing windows 7--> using ubuntu live cd to edit grub loader === Paraselene__ is now known as Paraselene_ [01:04] kseise_, There are command line tools that allow you to check email. Search synaptic for them and learn one. Once you have done that you can write a bash script that will run the appropriate commands in your new cli mail client [01:04] yo [01:04] rynerx: depends on the help required [01:05] Thanks ed_debian. There is no plugin for this right? I am not just missing the menu entry? [01:05] it's a sound problem, I just did a fresh install of 9.04. when i go to play a video in VLC there is no sound, but if i go to the Sound Preferences and hit test i can hear a Tone [01:06] kseise_, There might be. I don't think so though I might be wrong [01:07] did ubuntu ship with a custom version of 'Ãscreen' not too long ago? [01:07] OK, thanks [01:07] rynerx wait, verifying ... [01:07] rynerx: vlc/tools/preferences/audio check outputsetting. try alsa is set to auto [01:08] Can you install ubuntu on a drive that has data on it, without formatting the drive or making a partition? [01:08] Acorn_: kind of [01:08] Acorn_: if you don't like things to be organized I suppose you could [01:08] Acorn_: if it's got Windows on it you could do Wubi, which I woudn't recommend, and if you have enough RAM you can virtual machine [01:08] Acorn, you have to look at wubi [01:09] kseise_: best not to recommend Wubi [01:09] Why not? [01:09] It's just that at the moment, I have 2 hard drives. One with vista, and one with an old installation of XP on it. They are both almost full with data. I wanted to just delete XP and install ubuntu on the second drive [01:09] wubi = bad to the nth power [01:09] does ubuntu run on ppc? [01:09] graelin: the what power? [01:09] !ppc | Jeaton [01:09] Jeaton: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ [01:09] "n" as in variable [01:10] graelin, i set it to alsa, still nothing in VLC [01:10] what do you think is my best course of action? [01:10] yup yup.. exponents are a hassle [01:10] kseise_: Wubi is a hack, it hacks the Windows NTFS partition to put it's file there, and the Windows boot loader. it can run slow if Windows is all fragmented, people can get weird issues with it, and not just be able to boot it up [01:10] Acorn_, You want to delete XP but you don't want to repatition / loose data? === rachel is now known as Guest80157 [01:10] thanks jrib [01:10] kseise_: if you have a folder called Ubuntu inside Windows, when you put Wubi on, it is likely to get rid of this folder, I was told [01:10] rynerx: sound settings up.. both master and front? [01:10] oh, windows uses a different file system! I forgot >< [01:10] Acorn, why not just get a cheap external hard drive to copy the XP data to [01:11] kseise_: and then of course since it runs in Windows, if WIndows gets a nasty virus or whatever, bye bye Wubi as well [01:11] graelin he said, when he test it play sound well. [01:11] So not a problem with volume. [01:11] kseise_: and at least two of the Ubuntu o p s won't even recommend wubi which must mean something [01:11] not always true [01:11] Does anyone here have the firefox 3.5 beta on their machine? [01:11] donnyw: not yet [01:11] sebsebseb, gotcha. Good to know. My machines are pure Ubuntu [01:12] could have speakers in wrong jack.. troubleshooting is a process [01:12] I never tried it, but saw that it was intended for such use. [01:12] graelin, Um k just found out, if we plug it inot the onboard sound card it's fine, but if we plug it into the audigy sound blaster we get nothing [01:12] donnyw: ,but soon in that Fedora 11 VM, or will I just end up putting it on, or trying from DVD humm [01:12] graelin in some drivers like intel hd doesnt have front, instead they only have PCM and Master, he should check primary then PCM then master. [01:12] Hmm.... I'm having some trouble getting it to run [01:13] donnyw: I think you just need to install it in the correct place, and if you have Ubuntu's Firefox still, you could have them both using same profile, and then have some issue [01:13] rynerx: then you should select the proper sound device... there should be an alsa audigy.... choise as well as whatever the onboard device is [01:13] graelin, in the sound preferences? i did choose the audigy [01:13] sebsebseb: Well, I can start it, but it won't connect to anything [01:14] and the plot thickens.... [01:14] usuario [01:14] sebsebseb: it's currently just unzipped to ~/firefox [01:14] donnyw: #firefox maybe altough not that popular. irc.mozilla.org maybe, but you are also using a development version, so not sure how much support you can get from them if any really [01:14] Acorn_ you could install on the same file system as Windows, but it is not the best method. Has anyone else tried installing on NTFS? [01:15] in /etc/network/interfaces, is there a way to define a bridge without bridge_ports? [01:15] donnyw: maybe try the general ##linux channel, I don't think many Ubuntu users have installed it, and your issue is probably not distro specific [01:15] sebsebseb: thanks [01:15] i,m brazil [01:15] kseise_: I think I seen about 3 or so people that have done that, but what a stupid thing to do [01:15] gedit - how do I indent/unindent lines? [01:15] donnyw: ok good luck [01:15] donnyw: did you install firefox 3.5 beta from the ubuntu-mozilla-daily PPA ? [01:15] ... [01:16] Hello!!! [01:16] hello [01:16] I'm not sure what that is [01:16] donnyw: yeah that's what you should do if you want later stuff [01:16] I just got it from Mozilla's site [01:16] usuario_ deberias ir al canal ubuntu-es. Si hablas espanol. [01:16] donnyw: find out if there's a ppa, before installing from tar.gz or whatever [01:16] !es [01:16] En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [01:16] no, sou brasileira [01:16] sebsebseb: Where would I look for that? [01:16] how are you? [01:17] !ppa | donnyw [01:17] donnyw: With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. [01:17] usuairo_ then try english. [01:17] donnyw: it's a separate repository you can add, it provides firefox 3.5 beta and keeps it apart from your regular one, works very well [01:17] bleh [01:17] donnyw: just Google Firefox 3.5 Ubuntu ppa that should do it [01:17] !br | usuario_ [01:17] i found a driver issue in 9.04 [01:17] usuario_: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [01:17] ok [01:17] Kasm279 _ did you file the bug on launchpad? [01:18] not yet [01:18] what bug? Kasm279? [01:18] glitsj16: I think this ppa stuff is a bit silly really, would be better if Ubuntu didn't just provide security updates from the normal repos, but no [01:18] the touchpad on my small laptop wont work with 9.04, but it does with 8.10 [01:19] hallow? [01:19] where can I find info on file sharing? [01:19] glitsj16: I remember when pretty much all the other popular distros had Open Office 3, but Ubuntu 8.10 didn't [01:19] sebsebseb: yep, would make life easier indeed [01:19] anybody here???? [01:19] elad`: enable indent lines plugin and then you can select line and do ctrl-t / shift-ctrl-t to indent / unindent [01:19] and also with damn small linux [01:19] Kasm279, model? [01:19] hellow???? [01:19] dsl works? [01:19] its an Averetec 3700-EH1 [01:19] or no? [01:19] Excellent. Thanks. [01:19] DSL works [01:20] help me [01:20] when i type in alplay -l it lists card 0 as my built in VIA card, and card 1 as my Audigy card. But nothing uses the audigy, how do i get it to use that card? [01:20] HELLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW?????? [01:20] ans me plz [01:20] !hi | rizka [01:20] rizka: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!

I'm not looking for Apple's designer looks, but I want something that wouldn't make me puke, while still going easy on my eyes with the colors. [01:20] rizka ask the question already [01:20] rynerx: sysem/preferences/sound [01:20] !details | rizka [01:20] rizka: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [01:20] how to change channel at this? [01:21] rizka: /join [01:21] elad look for Overglossed on gnome-look.org [01:21] Been there, set everything to the audigy 1, when i hit test it plays.. but thats it? Do i need to restart or something? === Mkop2 is now known as Mkop [01:21] does anyone know how i can adjust the Metacity Composite (NOT Compiz Fusion) settings, like shadows? [01:21] my xchat its so difficult [01:21] Also, high-contrast enlarges some things. I want to keep everything the original size.

There sure are a lot. [01:23] prefrontal, what do you mean by borked? [01:23] I like the interface for xchat-gnome better. Just personal preference [01:23] prefrontal, does it boot? [01:23] Also, what type am I looking for? Metacity? [01:23] kseise, well right now im in windows LOL with mIRC ... [01:23] cabrey no, the dual boot aspect is suddenly boosted - boots into Grub [01:23] elad`: metacity is window borders, gtk2 is controls [01:23] elad`: there are, but it becomes problematic in firefox [01:24] raylu, firefox only, or programs in general? [01:24] Also, what do you mean, problematic? [01:24] elad`: when your textboxes are dark and pages insist on dark colors for foreground [01:24] elad`: without specifying a background color [01:24] prefrontal, so you can boot into Ubuntu, just not Windows? [01:24] s/boosted/busted [01:24] no the other way around. [01:24] obviously.. [01:25] I have problems using dark themes in openoffice also [01:25] In gnome-look, I should be looking for a GTK2.x theme, right? (Ubuntu 9.04) [01:25] prefrontal, well it's possible that AV software corrupted the wubi image [01:25] Yes, GTK2.x [01:25] Ahoy folks, having a minor problem I was hoping I could get advice on. [01:25] cabrey, I know, i'm asking if anyone has heard of that happening [01:25] what program can i use with ubuntu 904 to make a video with music? [01:26] prefrontal, personally? never heard of it [01:26] Well, what are you guys using for a theme? [01:26] how do I download the CCSM for Compiz? Is it in the Package Manager? [01:26] hobbet1: audacity I think [01:26] problem: volume for audio capture will not increase, either in alsamixer or in the GNOME volume control interface. [01:26] elad`: i'm using mist controls. nothing else shows up (i don't use gtk window borders) [01:26] anyone have any ideas as to why that could be? [01:26] pretty sure thats a sound editor.. Kino is a non-linear video editor [01:27] mtnd3w: have you tried using gconf-editor to change metacity's settings yet?

[01:31] alex_crash, just double click on the deb [01:32] giltsj16: yes i am [01:32] By the way, would some themes slow down my computer more than others? I am working on a laptop. ThinkPad. No dedicated graphics card, I believe. [01:32] could not find package simple-ccsm [01:32] cabrey: thanks [01:32] is something wrong? [01:32] thea2: simple-ccsm is a 'profile' based settings manager for Compiz, if you want full control, go for the compizconfig-settings-manager package [01:32] I can't find either package, trying to apt-get from terminal === R_Rios is now known as o_a [01:32] thea2, what version of ubuntu? [01:32] mtnd3w: http://www.howtoforge.com/tweaking-hidden-ubuntu-settings-with-ubuntu-tweak has some info on tweaking metacity through a separate package [01:33] most recent 9.x [01:33] thea2, use synaptic package manager and search for compiz [01:33] hey all is there a way to set my ubuntu to ignore Wrong architecture 'i386' errors?

[01:34] no packed for 64bit [01:34] but I've seen somewhere that 32bit packaes work on it fine you just have to ignore [01:34] but I can't figure out how to do that [01:34] ceej, just sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture package_name [01:34] I'm running /top/. Whenever I switch between windows, Xorg really eats away at my CPU time. I can also feel the slow-down very well. Is there anything I can do, short of buying a new laptop? [01:34] or smth alike that [01:35] ArkoldThos, what window manager are you using? [01:35] ArkoldThos: is there anyway to set it up to load everything using that? I'm using the GUI ubuntu [01:36] hi [01:36] matrixblue, kde heh [01:36] i need a little help on setting up DKIM [01:36] can you please help me as i am stuck? [01:36] ceej, i don't have a clue [01:36] i guess no :o [01:36] ceej if you are going through the trouble, why not just install from source? [01:36] i installed it from source === platypus_cheese is now known as kitty_porn [01:36] but in the email header it is showing as DKIM hardffail === kitty_porn is now known as graelin [01:36] ArkoldThos, I don't have alot of KDE/Plasma experience but I image turning off a fe effects would help [01:36] what does that mean and how do i resolev this. [01:36] please help me [01:37] heh, install from source can be useful too, but if you have a slow processor can be boring andslow === keep_away1111 is now known as o_a [01:37] matrixblue, you want to turn off the kwin effects :o? [01:37] powerfailed - flactuated; then when i boot my ubuntu box, it boots on initramfs shell, what should i do to restore my old desktop back [01:37] ArkoldThos_ And frustraing with dependency hell [01:37] yup [01:37] i really really need your help [01:37] so can you please advise some advise on the DKIM hardfail issue.. === o_a is now known as R_Rios === R_Rios is now known as o_a [01:38] ArkoldThos, it would reduce processor consumption. What are your machine specs? [01:38] Can anyone advise for software to play windows games? [01:38] quad core :o [01:38] RenagadeX, wine [01:38] it would reduce them, not by much [01:38] Sigh, this is frustrating, VLC still won't use the Audigy card even though i have it selected in System>Prefrences>Sound [01:38] !appdb | RenagadeX [01:38] RenagadeX: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help [01:38] but anyway it will take sometime to compile depending on the processor :p [01:38] Cabrey: Thanks, I'll check it out [01:38] can someone please help me with DKIM [01:38] Renegadex What games? We can save you some trouble [01:39] syntax\, boot into recovery mode from grub and run fsck [01:39] just install the packages, compiling becomes boring and frustrating, for that you can use gentoo and use emerge and aliens techniques :o [01:39] matrixblue, what do you mean? [01:39] ah shoot, I had to update my repos to find ccsm [01:39] thanks all [01:39] rynerx, does the card produce any sound? [01:39] Kseise: Alot. Combat arms, CSS, Warcraft3 [01:39] Kseise: and more.. [01:39] folks... I was changing the theme of ubuntu 9.04, all of it, including mouse theme... but somehow it won't come back to the theme I just chose, how can I fix it? [01:40] RenagadeX, that should work with wine the probably, but there are other solutions like Cedega [01:40] matrixblue, on the os selection? select the kernel with (recovery mode)? if thats the one i still boot on initramfs [01:40] that works emulating games very well :) [01:40] chuck_, under sound when i hit test i hear the tone it makes.. but that's the only time i hear sound out of it [01:40] @um_cara_* i suggest when you find a theme you like or are changin g up theme, save it. :) [01:40] syntax\, select recovery mode from the grub menu and select root terminal [01:40] !tab | Jk3mp [01:40] ArkoldThos: Any way to find out the best? [01:40] Jk3mp: You can use for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [01:40] If wine can't do it, check out Cedega from Transgaming. It is commercial, but might work. Crossover Games pretty much sucks for me. I run COD4 and Battlefield 2 under Cedega [01:40] matrixblue, then [01:40] syntax\, run fsck from the live cd then [01:40] That way you can go back to old theme whenever you want. [01:40] i do that... [01:40] @cabrey thanks :P [01:41] i just can't change it back [01:41] actually im on the live cd [01:41] np [01:41] raylu: where are you from? [01:41] rynerx, is it your only card? [01:41] thanks all really help [01:41] matrixblue, im running the failing system on live cd. [01:41] RenagadeX, look at both databases (appdb of wine) and the other thingy of Cedega [01:41] plus, cedega is made for gaming [01:41] ok [01:41] chuck_, no i have the onboard card, when i plug the cable into that, it works with VLC, but not when i plug into the audigy [01:41] wine is quite general [01:41] search cedega? [01:41] root@ubuntu:/# fsck [01:41] fsck 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009) [01:41] !fsck | syntax\ [01:41] syntax\: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot [01:41] im new to ubuntu [01:42] so Cedega should work better, although is a pay application (very cheap) and you can get it from any torrent site so don't worry [01:42] Wine might need to be patched depending on your needs and Ubuntu version. Check the app DB carefully [01:42] so within top, if a pid shows up, then its a parent proc(not a child)?? [01:42] ArkoldThos, the ops will ban you for that... [01:42] where is the app DB? [01:42] !appdb [01:42] The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help [01:42] appdb.winehq.org [01:42] i believe [01:43] rodger wilco [01:43] Does anyone here have any experience with Intel sound cards and issues with unadjustable capture volume? [01:43] cabrey, hm :o i don't think so, i mean, you can download it test it and then buy it if it works with your game [01:43] since you can always have troubles with most of them :> [01:43] is runlevel 2 with NFS or without NFS thx [01:43] ArkoldThos, still a grey area, just saying im not an op tho :P [01:43] I've switched to a dark theme. What's annoying me now is that xchat is still configured for a light working area. How do I change xchat's settings? [01:43] Guest23643: PM'ing people with your problems not help you, pose your question to the cahnel and be patient [01:43] :p [01:43] Is ubuntu Linux or Unix? [01:43] matrixblue, im on live cd boot, what should i do to make it come back? [01:44] RenagadeX, linux [01:44] RenagadeX, Linux is just a kernel [01:44] rynerx, open vlc [01:44] syntax\, reboot [01:44] ubuntu haves it, and a bunch of applications to work out of the box on your computer [01:44] chuck_, open [01:44] so ... how do I run ccsm now that I have it installed? [01:44] so Ubuntu is an upgraded kernel of Linux? [01:44] reboot normally? or sudo shutdown -F -r now <-- with this command? [01:44] nope, the kernel is the core 'application' [01:44] thea2, System > Preferences > CompizConfig Settings Manager [01:44] so what does ubuntu add? [01:45] ubuntu is just the kernel + gnome + gnu things + bunch of things [01:45] simplicity [01:45] that makes easier to configure :) [01:45] righto [01:45] easy to install [01:45] ArkoldThos, here we go with the whole GNU/Linux thing... :/ [01:45] chuck_, in tools>preferences>output modules i've set the audio to ALSA audio output [01:45] does webmin work /w Jaunty? [01:45] rynerx, go to tools / preferences bottom left corner you will see simple and all choose all [01:45] how would I do that from terminal? [01:45] Kernel is the heart of any OS. The Kernel, is, in fact, THE operating system. [01:45] cabrey, nah [01:45] gnu is something [01:45] linux other thing [01:45] by all [01:45] lets keep that in that way :) [01:45] ArkoldThos: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:45] RenagadeX, a operating system kernel is like the central nervous system of the human body. It makes everything work but alone it's useless. Ubuntu takes that kernel and adds stuff on top of it to make a complete body so to speak [01:45] Everything else is built on top of the Kernel. Ubuntu has a specific set of apps and customization. [01:46] damn bot :P [01:46] dudes, I get it now [01:46] lol [01:46] too many responses! [01:46] * cabrey thinks we should just call it Linux for the sake of simplicity [01:46] :) [01:46] * RenagadeX agrees [01:46] my point exactly [01:46] ubuntu is Linux for Humans [01:47] my laptop doesn't recognize blank DVD-R media so I can't burn anything, any ideas? [01:47] * RenagadeX wonders, "Does webmin work for Jaunty Jackalope?" [01:47] RenagadeX, my point is that Linux is the kernel, Gnome is the GUI, X is the graphics server, GNU thingies are mv, cp, etc bunch of applications, plus it haves nice thigns at Pidgin, Rhymnbox and stuff [01:47] use a DVD + R [01:47] maybe [01:47] all customized and makes your life easier [01:47] bernie_, I've also tried DVD+RW [01:47] gremmie_: how old is your laptop? [01:47] rynerx, did you find it [01:47] syntax\, google to find out the correct way to repair a filesystem from a live Cd. Keep in mind it may not be the file system at all. I just check the file system first after a bad shutdown [01:48] RenagadeX, yes, on the webmin site there is a deb package [01:48] ok [01:48] talking about linux, xD someone tested newest amarok? [01:48] bulr0g, it is less than a year old, dell xps m1530 [01:48] I installed recently Jackalope in my hp dv6000 but the internal mic is not working can anyone help me please? [01:48] chuck_, yep found it, i set the audio output to ALSA [01:48] hmm, strange then that it wouldn't recognize the blanks [01:48] defective drive, maybe [01:48] lshw says my cdrom is a DVD writer [01:48] i have a dell desktop and the burner doesnt burn ne more, it says it does and works but it just doesnt burn [01:48] do you have access to any other computer with a DVD writer? [01:49] I installed recently Jackalope in my hp dv6000 but the internal mic is not working can anyone help me please? [01:49] bulr0g, yes [01:49] gremmie, what burning software have you tried? [01:49] Last one: Is there an IRC client for Ubuntu? [01:49] RenagadeX, XChat [01:49] Hi all. I need a beginners guide getting my Ubuntu (8.10) machine to share folders over the network with my Vista machine. [01:49] rynerx, the box should have changed and now you see alsa device name? [01:49] RenagadeX: Konversation :) [01:49] cabrey, basharo (?) [01:49] elad_ Preference>Interface>Background Image> use a dark picture? [01:49] sebsebseb, ewwww kde [01:49] I'm a massochist who likes to play around with custom kernels on various architectures. Is there a good HOWTO for working with Ubuntu's kernel packaging system to do that? [01:49] I installed recently Jackalope in my hp dv6000 but the internal mic is not working can anyone help me please? [01:49] chuck_, when i select ALSA audio output thats at it says [01:49] Anyone wondered why xchat comes installed on Xubuntu but not ubuntu? [01:49] RenagadeX: xchat, irssi, and several others are available for ubuntu and other linux distributions [01:49] cabrey: as a GUI sure, but some of it's apps in Gnome no [01:49] gremmie, brasero? [01:50] in /etc/network/interfaces, is there a way to define a bridge without bridge_ports? [01:50] cabrey, yeah [01:50] sebsebseb, just kidding :) [01:50] chuck_, if i go simple, then select ALSA i get a device name, and it just says Default [01:50] gremmie, any error messages given? [01:50] rynerx, change the default tab to your sound card [01:50] I can read CD's and play DVD movies [01:50] cabrey: Xchat = noobchat [01:50] chuck_, i can't, all it says is default, doesn't let me change it to anything\ [01:50] What do I do /w .rpm files? [01:50] sebsebseb, what do you use? [01:50] RenagadeX, from where? [01:50] lshw just shows the cdrom status as open [01:51] matrixblue: Konversation, and if I could be bothered I would set up IRSSI nicely and use that [01:51] http://www.xchat.org/files/binary/rpm/ [01:51] I installed recently Jackalope in my hp dv6000 but the internal mic is not working can anyone help me please? [01:51] RenagadeX, use apt-get [01:51] RenagadeX - those are for red hat based distros. Look for a .deb [01:51] RenagadeX, sudo apt-get install xchat [01:51] RenagadeX: you rm -f .rpm files ;-) [01:51] need universe & multiverse? [01:51] You can install from a rpm using the alien command, but for a noob, look for the deb first [01:51] yupa [01:51] RenagadeX: just universe for xchat [01:51] alien command is easy :P just alien -d stuff.rpm [01:52] !alien [01:52] RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) [01:52] I installed recently Jackalope in my hp dv6000 but the internal mic is not working can anyone help me please?

[01:53] RenagadeX: you could join #ubuntu-ops and ask them [01:54] ubottu is awesome [01:54] Sorry, I don't know anything about is awesome [01:54] do I have to use terminal to use APT? [01:54] Renegadex - You also might want to check out the gaming channel on this IRC server #ubuntu-gaming I think [01:54] ubottu can you tell me some terminal commands?

[02:56] so now i have free space to be partitioned i think i have to select new partition and ext3? [02:56] Andrewcool: you can used a guided install using entire disk, or set up partitions yourself [02:56] Andrewcool: well is it meant to be a blank disk? [02:56] Sebsebseb: Yes [02:56] asdasdsassaddas: did you delete in manual? [02:57] yes [02:57] asdasdsassaddas: you could do Ext4 instead of Ext3, I been giving it a try for about a week now, haven't done any proper data on it yet though, but those issues are fixed [02:57] asdasdsassaddas: let's see if I can recommend Ext4 to you or not. what kind of data do you have, you back up to an external hard disk maybe? [02:58] nope i am only using a IDE HDD [02:59] Andrewcool: ok you have a choice, set up partitions youself, and choose Ext3/Ext4 or use a guided install say the use entire hard disk one, and that does Ext3 by default [02:59] Sebsebseb: I still get the error "Input/Output error during read on /dev/sda" [02:59] Andrewcool: ah ha [02:59] Sebsebseb: ?

[03:15] cchen, I think the error are just ubuntu being silly claiming I can't read the CD!!!! even though I just instructed you to take it out!! sr0 is the CD during an installation [03:15] sebsebseb: it was a beast, so I switched [03:15] r00tw4rrior: np [03:15] chuck_: totem [03:15] with gstreamer [03:15] cchen, Maybe you have errors on your harddrive. I am not sure [03:15] sebsebseb: But... now I want more space! [03:15] cabrey: appearantly it seems to work except that it's kind of slow. I am running Jaunty on a Thinkpad T4 [03:15] im using ubuntu 9.04 on my toshiba satellite with a pheonix bios and from my research i need to install the omnibook module to enable my bluetooth i cant find how to do it [03:16] cchen, There are no errors in dmesg? How slow are we talking here. What are the specs on the machine? [03:16] xangua, try vlc or mplayer [03:16] it shows no event [03:16] Sebsebseb: I have checked the ports on the hard drive, and power cords, everything seems perfect..however I still keep getting that error of "Input/Output error during read on /dev/sda" [03:16] ed_debian: i think you are right... so far, the system hasn't broken down except slow. [03:17] cchen run man fdisk. Again how slow are we talking? Unusable? [03:17] Andrewcool: I don't know, I hope some of these others can help you though === baker is now known as bakerGR [03:17] ed_debian: that's what I thought too. I took out the hard drive and put in a brand new one. same i/o erros /dev/sr0. [03:17] Sebsebseb: Who else can help? [03:17] cchen: Andrewcool has a similar issue? see above [03:17] ed_debian: in dmesg, no errors at all. that was very interesting [03:17] cchen, fdisk in a partitioning tool but it is also used to do disk checks === crzyboi is now known as crzyboi_ [03:18] is a* [03:18] Sebsebseb: Do you think it could be a bios error? === crzyboi_ is now known as crzyboi [03:18] Andrewcool: maybe, not enough of a hardware person [03:18] cchen, What is interesting about dmesg? Is your system so slow that it is unusable? === baker is now known as bakerGR [03:18] Can someone help me figure out why my volume control isn't working? I can adjust all I want and nothing changes [03:18] ed_debian: the slowness happens when browsing the Internet with firefox. I think it could be the ATI driver. the redraw is very slow. it took seconds to go from one tab to the other [03:18] cchen: What error are you having? [03:18] cchen, Only with firefox? [03:19] sebsebseb: thanks for reply. I only get this error once right after the installation completes and the system asked me to take out the cd. [03:19] Andrewcool, Are you the one getting the /dev/sda i/o error? [03:19] ed_debian: disk checked and all passed [03:20] ed_debian: in /var/log/dmesg.0, there is 0 errors in there. [03:20] Andrewcool: tell ed_debian the whole of your error [03:20] I have Ubuntu 9.04 on a Sony Vaio and my left click on my pad doesnt work [03:21] asdasdsassaddas: intalled yet? [03:21] cchen, I think that you can safely ignore those error. I think your firefox problem is unrelated to those error but deserves some looking into on it's own. [03:21] andrewcool: I/O Error on device sr0 when the installation was completed and the jaunty installer asked me to take out the cd-rom and press enter to reboot. X closes, and I saw lots of I/O errors on device sr0 on the screen. [03:21] just a few seconds more [03:22] ed_debian: most of the time in firefox, I had this thinkpad running 8.10 with no problems... but slower with jaunty though. [03:22] ed_debian, yes I am getting that type of error [03:22] <|ntegra|> Andrewcool: I'm quessing Your bios has saved a profile of your harddrive (which is wrong) and ubuntu is picking up on that fact... I'd reload (in the bios) my harddrive, then try again -do some troubleshooting/trial'n'error/steps from the hardware up (you've already done the first step) [03:22] hello, Im having problems with blender + ubuntu + intel graphic card. After installing ubuntu I was running gentoo and blender worked just fine. Can someone tell me what may be the cause? [03:22] before installing* [03:22] cchen, IDK [03:22] ed_debian: i think you could be right. when jaunty installed dismount the cd-rom, it must still tried to read something from the cd-rom. That could be the errors. [03:22] |ntegra| Looking at my Bios now, how would I change the bios [03:23] <|ntegra|> um, I've never seen yours, just my ones sorry [03:23] |ntegra| : Do you think "Load Setup Defaults, could work? [03:23] ed_debian: this could be due to my system was old and it still needs to read the cd-rom even thought it said finished.... maybe I should let it stay there for awhile and then take out the cd-rom. [03:23] it worked :D [03:23] :D [03:23] :D [03:24] asdasdsassaddas: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:24] thankss!!!!!!!

[04:37] <_2eXtreme> cheers! and thanks again! :D [04:37] switched to chatzilla [04:38] Sarai: try checking your not installed residual config maybe there is some junk left over from removal of OOOnew [04:38] :D [04:38] isnt that a ff addon? [04:38] Hi,all, I have 2 programs need to auto-start, I place them into /etc/rc.local, but one can start, and another failed to start. They both can start by hand when I call "/etc/rc.local" on command. [04:38] does someone have a good knowledge on php/apache with suexec/fastcgi ? i have some questions [04:38] cabrey, yes [04:38] megra, ubuntu-server? [04:38] Now, I find the difference, But I dont know why? [04:38] cabrey, yep [04:38] cabrey, som [04:38] megra: if nobody here knows then go to #ubuntu-server [04:39] you might want to /join ubuntu-server [04:39] madmax_x how do I do that? [04:39] cabrey, some of the security feature it offers are strange [04:39] I've got three people at work switching to Linux... :D [04:39] goodbye M$ [04:39] it's /join #ubuntu-server [04:39] chuck_: yeah i was looking at some of them but they tell you how to recompile the entire kernel as if you are upgrading it, whereas i only want to rebuild the kernel drivers. [04:39] BeatlesFan, Ubuntu I assume [04:39] Sarai: synaptic package manager [04:39] cabrey: yes [04:39] Scunizi, ok, i'll ask there too, thx ;) [04:39] My program is a socket server, it can auto-start in /etc/rc.local on my PC, but it cannot auto-start on my VMware. [04:39] My OS is both ubuntu-9.04 on my PC and VMware. [04:39] madmax_x: yeah, I got that. What do I DO in synaptic? [04:39] bsl, I know :) [04:40] Sarai: click status button [04:40] sam_, what are the commands? [04:40] on left look for not installed (residual config) === |_ocke is now known as Breamm [04:40] the command is : supernode -l 1234 & [04:41] Sarai: on left look for not installed (residual config) [04:41] cabrey, when I disgard the '&', it can auto-start. [04:41] madmax_x: there's a bunch of stuff in there [04:41] join #debian [04:41] Sarai: any OOO stuff [04:41] but On my pc, I can auto-start with '&' and without '&' [04:42] sam_, you shouldn't need the & in rc.local [04:42] yes, I said I found this difference. [04:42] madmax_x: indeed! how do I get rid of them? [04:42] But why on My PC it can start with '&' [04:42] Sarai: use the force...thats the right click button [04:43] sam_, so does that mean it works or not? [04:43] hello guider [04:43] madmax_x: and mark for complete removal, or just normal removal? [04:43] can you all help me setting email using evolution mail [04:44] Sarai: also you could view the dependancies of the package your trying to install by looking at its properties [04:44] I can work with '&' and without '&' on my PC; but it cannot works with '&' on my VMware. [04:44] my os are both ubuntu-9.04 [04:45] Sarai: then check to see if you have them installed [04:45] Scunizi, it seems a nuclear attack was launch against #ubuntu-server, they are all dead :) [04:45] sam_, I'm confused, I thought we were just working with one OS (and rc.local) [04:46] madmax_x: well it's weird, when I'm trying to install the package it lists the dependency that cannot be resolved, and that package is in synaptic too! But when I try to install it it says that that has unmet dependencies too and then lists the package I was trying to add to begin with!! [04:46] cabrey, another difference is about the OS installation mode, my PC is installed over network. but the VMware is installed by ubtuntu.iso image file. [04:46] my intel 3945 wireless card isn't working. "lshw -C network" says "network UNCLAIMED". how do i figure out what the problem is and fix it? [04:47] the deference is about the accounts priviledge. [04:47] Sarai: im just guessing here but try removing both completely and reinstalling....do either of the have parts in the residual config list? [04:47] mirc/ [04:47] sam_, I'm not entirely sure I know what you mean, but I have to go :( sorry === thiago_ is now known as tpresa [04:48] thx, carbrey. [04:48] madmax_x : actually, no I didn't see either one in the residual config [04:48] Hi, I have a installation that is really mucked up and have spent many hours trying to fix it, I have all my pertinent data on separate partition in /home when I reinstall will I need to remove all of ~/ to avoid conflicts or does the installer do this on its own? [04:48] hey does anyone knows about tutorials to set up selinux and configure it for jaunty jackalope? [04:49] I have saw the installer say that is removing things that will cause conflict, but I dont know what it is referring to [04:49] ubuntu: I have never had a problem with that... it only contains configuration files... it should be OK [04:49] ubuntu: Tell the installer to use your partition as /home and it'll do everything fine. [04:50] Sarai: what about the dep of the OOOlatest [04:50] HELP, how to play DAT video file? [04:51] I do not want to keep any of the ~/. files, but I want to keep what s in the custom folders I created, and folders like Music and such [04:51] I dont need it to remember themes and stuff like that [04:51] madmax_x: huh? [04:52] hey is there a good tutorial out there to set up selinux on jaunty jackalope? [04:53] Flannel, I used to use a live disc to destroy all the config and hidden files on home to avoid complications... so this is not needed? [04:53] my intel 3945 wireless card isn't working. "lshw -C network" says "network UNCLAIMED". how do i figure out what the problem is and fix it? [04:53] Sarai: you said this all started when you tried to upgrade to the latest release of ooo are there any parts left from that in the residual config [04:53] ubuntu: What is not needed? [04:54] #semarang [04:54] madmax_x: yes, there are, or rather were, I removed them [04:54] ubuntu: Tell it not to format /home and you should be good. If you don't want to preserve stuff in your user's home dir, simply remove it and let the installer re-add it when you create a new user. [04:54] Sarai: did you also remove the repo [04:55] ok thanks [04:55] Sarai: repository [04:55] madmax_x: yes, I had already removed the repo before I came in here [04:55] Sarai: i find i try to tab complete words when im typing [04:55] h [04:55] Can someone give me a brief rundown of the differences between ubuntu 8.04 and 9.04? why should I upgrade? [04:56] Sarai: did you try your install again [04:57] madmax_x: yes, just did but it still says unresolved dependencies [04:57] mikeshollen: it depends on your needs... does all your hardware and everything work? then don't [04:57] mikeshollen, some things have been improved [04:57] mikeshollen, like security, hadware support, ... [04:58] mikeshollen, and of course you have all your software up to date [04:58] Sarai: did you check installed version [04:58] ubuntu repo has no update for newest pidgin security update [04:58] madmax_x there is no installed version [04:58] mikeshollen: there are some improvements in many packages, notifications are better, sound is getting better, more drivers are availible [04:58] Sarai: sudo apt-get autoclean [04:59] whatvn, did you try security repos ? [04:59] ? [04:59] megra: all [05:00] well, i'm running 8.04 on an alienware with sli nvidia 7900 go cards [05:00] whatvn, you can try to compile the source code :D [05:00] i like gaming, and i'm running wow through wine [05:00] dajiahao [05:00] everything seems to be working for the most part [05:00] how do you change directories in the terminal [05:00] megra: :-p [05:00] only problem is ventrilo sound issues in Wine [05:01] madmax_x: tried that, no change [05:01] Sarai, what dependencies are unresolved/unsatisfied ? [05:01] Sarai: grr [05:01] i can't hear things in vent, but that's probably nothing to do with linux and everything to do with wine I would assume? [05:01] Sarai, send output via pastebin [05:01] ok so i just added my other hard drives to fstab and they mount great but they dont show up in the left panel of the file browser, just in the /mnt/ folder [05:01] mikeshollen, wine ? NOT a good solution :) [05:01] people should upgrade pidgin to version >2.5.6, there is 3 critical bug in pidgin <2.5.6 [05:02] megra, madmax_x: output of what? [05:02] how do I mount /dev/sdb6 from a live disc again? [05:02] oh, nm [05:02] hold on [05:02] megra: actually, wine has been doing an outstanding job for me [05:02] Sarai, aptitude install [05:02] rob235, try opening them up in the /mnt directory and see if they don't show up [05:02] brb [05:02] megra: yeah, sorry. I'm a total bonehead, hold on [05:02] hello webcam trouble [05:02] megra: in windows xp running direct x9 i ran WoW at about 35 fps, in Wine using OpenGL it runs about 45 [05:02] mikeshollen, maybe, but running win32 apps on linux just sucks, it's better to use linux apps :) [05:02] they dont, ive tried [05:03] rob235, try sudo mount -a [05:03] megra: but many apps don't exist for linux that i want to run, like wow... [05:03] in the terminal window [05:03] why, im trying to automount them [05:03] megraL unless you're hiding the WoW linux distro somewhere [05:03] jeremiah_, cd /name or cd name depends on where it lives [05:03] it sucks that vent has all the linux server packages, but no native client yet [05:03] rob235, they won't automount from fstab until you do a restart [05:03] i have [05:03] and they do automount [05:03] ahh [05:03] ugh im bored [05:03] rob235, you can add a shhortcut on your desktop manually if you want [05:04] they just dont show up anywhere except in the /mnt/ folder [05:04] kazagistar: check out spuxproject.net [05:04] nah theres gotta be another way [05:04] kazagister: some people are developing a linux vent client [05:04] megra: http://pastebin.com/dc779eed [05:04] mikeshollen, well, for games, i switch to windows, it's bad, but at least i works for any program not running on linux [05:04] how do you check if a string is not "" in bash? I tried if [ $2 -ne "" ] but seems it only accept integers [05:05] sarai: try this: sudo apt-get update && sudo aptitude install openoffice.org-writer2latex [05:05] How do I transfer Rhythmbox settings such as playlists from one PC to another? [05:06] megra: well windows vista runs direct x 10 which is supposed to do all kinds of great new stuff for games but the overhead for vista is enormous, xp takes up a quarter of the overhead but only has direct x 9 which is great but not as advanced, and hardy seems to be taking up half of what XP wanted for overhead and OpenGL seems to be working pretty darn well [05:06] so to change to documents, cd documents [05:06] ?? [05:06] megra: of course, i only really play WoW, and occasionally some of the free linux games like Blood Frontier [05:07] jeremiah_: it's case senstive... probably Documents [05:07] mikeshollen, having a dual boot also prevent you from playing as you have to reboot, and can't read your mails :D [05:08] that depends on who you use for your mail provider [05:08] limpc, if [ ! "$var" = "" ] [05:08] megra: i'm pretty impressed with all the google stuff so far [05:08] rob235, try moving the mount point from /mnt/directory to /directory.. in other words a directory off the root dir [05:08] megra: http://pastebin.com/m7cb8997d (I think I should accept the solution, right?) [05:08] mikeshollen, i use evolution, i really don't like webmail [05:09] Hi, I have problems accessing a certain website (works with other users I check with), when I run a ping the DNS resolves but I receive no ping reply. Would this be a problem on my OS/LAN or would you suggest contacting my ISP? [05:09] Sarai, you would better accept yes, unless you don't want to install OOo :P [05:09] megra: google supports IMAP, you can use both and have them sync [05:09] how do you create a directory [05:09] Sarai, wait jsut a second [05:09] jeremiah_ open up terminal console... type mkdir directory_name [05:10] megra: I thought so, I just didn't want to bork it anymore... seems like I have a talent for that [05:10] thnx [05:10] Sarai: [05:10] ? [05:10] Sarai, yes you can accept, this package is from OOo [05:10] jeremiah_, or right click on desktop and create a folder [05:10] Sarai: my bad wrong window [05:11] SeVilla: haha, ok [05:11] how do you move files from one dir to another === goose is now known as goose|zZz [05:12] jeremiah_, try this http://www.ss64.com/bash/ [05:12] jeremiah_, use cp to copy, or mv to move [05:12] Hey, I have no sound in flash... I downloaded flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound and still nothing... any ideas? [05:12] megra: thanks that worked great. [05:12] what flavor ubuntu should I install on an Intel MoBo ? [05:13] hi [05:13] thanks chuck_!! II just bookmarked that page [05:13] limpc, no problem ;) [05:13] :D [05:13] scribawf: thats like asking what version of xp/vista to install on an intel mobo :P [05:13] megra: HUZZAH! Now it's letting me install [05:13] scribawf, I just installed 9.04 and it works great [05:13] on my Intel MB [05:13] Sarai, yeah :) [05:13] and i use an AMD [05:14] hmmm, tried 9.04 but did not seem to want to do well (hang) on install [05:14] megra: thanks for being patient with me... I'm actually not a dumb n00b, just tired and frustrated [05:14] scribawf: 8.04.2 is the most stable release in my opinion [05:14] scribawf, did you try burning a live CD? [05:14] tried a live CD yes [05:15] scribawf, and it would not boot from Live CD? [05:15] scribawf: that may be due to your SATA drive not the mobo [05:15] thought 8.04.2 might be a better choice, though [05:15] ? is it possible to run mack os x in virtual box like windows? [05:15] oh yes it did boot, but failed to go through the whole install [05:15] jdsandeson: you might be able to run the x86 version. [05:15] hey guys, how do i downgrade mysql5.1 to mysql5.0? [05:15] jdsandeson, no [05:15] no SATA 40gb IDE) [05:15] scribawf, ok, then it's not a motherboard issue [05:16] jdsandeson, or at least not offiaclly ... [05:16] i'm trying to get phpmyadmin to work, and it requires mysql5.0 :( [05:16] scribawf: doesnt mean its not the sata. some installs have problems with sata positioning and init [05:16] scribawf, could be a graphics card issue too [05:16] Beatlesfan; probably should just dl 8.04.2 again [05:16] scribawf: give it a try, nothing to lose [05:17] GreaterCoreDuo, then upgrade your mysql server, it won't be that bad, won't it ? [05:17] yup that does it, will dl 8.04.2 and give it a try could be also my burn wasn't good [05:17] anyone else seeing problems with AIM right now?

[05:44] amarjit, if yes, you can restore, otherwise, no [05:45] yes i have tlyu - but there are loads of log files - i dont know what to look for either [05:45] Ali_, you won't know [05:45] hi all [05:45] Ali_, if you have been hacked, the best thing is to reinstall from scratch and patch your website [05:45] megra, is there no way of finding out from postfix which script is sending the mail?

[05:48] Ali_, well, 1and1 keep a log of the emails sent, but it does not say which program sent them [05:48] I have enabled the STA Wireless device from the Hardware Drivers page [05:48] !wireless [05:48] Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [05:48] ok anyone know how to delete all emails in the mailq that are being sent by a partcular email address? [05:48] Ali_: You've got a Web app or something that apache is serving that looks to be the culprit. Start with all the server-side scripts that apache has access to. It's probably a PHP script or something similar. [05:50] QRZ, there r lots of users on the system (ands lots of files) and so i dont know where to start looking or how! [05:50] Hello everyone. [05:51] I need help to know about a working cross-platform desktop sharing option. [05:51] anyone know how to move inetd to xinetd? [05:51] hello, how do I modify the firewall in 9.04? [05:52] Ali_: So the messages are in still Postfix's queue? [05:52] yes [05:52] QRZ, yes [05:52] Adobe connectnow does not work (desktop sharing) in FF3 Linux. [05:52] Ersran9: I would recommend gufw to you.. It is a GUI front end for UFW (uncomplicated firewall) [05:52] Ali_: Have you viewed the contents of any of them? [05:53] yes QRZ [05:53] Every other tools that I know (Dimdim, Connectnow) has some problem or other. [05:53] okay, I'll try that out [05:53] Ali_: Perhaps there are clues as to what process or user is sending them based on the content. [05:53] it seems to all be spam QRZ [05:53] Please suggest if there is any other option. [05:53] Hi All, when i do iwconfig, i get 'no wireless'. What can I do to make this wireless 'enabled' [05:54] Ersran9: its in the repositories, so its an easy install [05:54] I m considering disabling the broadcom sta wireless drivers [05:54] and re enabling [05:54] will that help [05:54] Ali_: I presume you are the admin for the box in question? [05:54] yes QRZ :$ [05:55] trancefat do you see wlan 0 [05:55] Guys, I just got this error: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. [05:55] E: _cache->open() failed, please report. [05:55] gogeta: Hi, in iwconfig? [05:55] Current build, why trying to install amarok. [05:55] hey all, what is the file extension for a Key File? [05:55] yea [05:55] gogeta: no [05:55] so anyone know how to delete all emails in the mailq that are being sent by a partcular email address? [05:55] they work in x [05:55] ? [05:55] gogeta: i have enabled the STA Wireless Drivers [05:56] gogeta: how do u mean when u say, the work in x [05:56] the gui [05:56] gogeta: no [05:56] gogeta: its as if there is no wireless at all [05:56] driver issue then [05:56] gogeta: i m thinking of disabling Broadcom STA wireless and re enabling [05:57] gogeta: do u think that ll help [05:57] i always suggest cards giving you a issue is to use ndiswarpper and the windows driver [05:57] does anyone know how to find out preciely what driver is being usesd for a particular USB device? [05:57] gogeta: ok, but i ve done this in the past... i had to just enable a driver in the Hardware Drivers page... specify an IP and thats it [05:58] Ali_: Postfix can be set to dis-allow relaying of messages from certain local users, I think. But to answer your question, use the postsuper command. [05:58] I installed 9.04, and its not happening [05:58] ok thanks QRZ [05:58] Guys, I'm having sound problems... I hear startup music... but both flash and my mp3 files aren't making any noise. [05:58] trancefat well did that work [05:58] lol [05:58] Using 9.04 [05:58] hey [05:58] anyone know about the marines [05:58] Ali_: something here might be useful to you: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-postfix-flush-mail-queue.html [05:58] Ali_: 'man postsuper' at the command line should be helpful. Good luck. [05:59] marines? [05:59] thanks losher and QRZ [05:59] ok i flushed it but now i need to find that blasted script! i really dont know where to begin [05:59] I am having an issue with Brasero, burning VCD or VDVD projects results in an error about plugins.. Reference http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789022 does anyone have a solution or a workaround for this? [06:00] yes [06:00] ah thank you WIGGMPk [06:00] i have tried searching apache logs but there r just millions of logs [06:00] the united states marine corps [06:00] Ersran9: satisfied? [06:00] im going to MEPS tomorrow to be officially enlisted [06:00] yes, it looks good [06:00] talk in my privet for that they will get us for offtopic [06:00] Ersran9: believe me, its much much much easier than playing around with iptables [06:01] Ali_: Lots of users on that box? [06:01] yeah, its simpler than firestarter ( the one I used in fedora ) [06:01] !offtopic [06:01] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [06:02] kraft go there' [06:02] join #ubuntu-offtopic [06:03] Ali_: Perhaps a manual audit of the users' web directories would turn up something. [06:03] go where [06:04] i downloaded the nautilus script open-terminal from synaptic but its not in the context menu, do i have to do anything else? i should have just downloaded the sh file [06:04] given that you know a device driver that needs to be loaded, how do you load it? [06:04] Ali_: in your place, I would replace postfix with a shell script that runs 'ps axf > /tmp/logfile; postfix.orig'. That should log all processes including whoever is calling postfix.... [06:04] rob235: have you restarted nautilus? [06:05] o, no, the manual install works right away so i thought this would too [06:05] ok thanks [06:05] QRZ, yeah too many users [06:05] ill just check later [06:05] losher, hmm how would that work? [06:05] nith: Use modprobe. [06:06] Ali_: Looks like it's time for policy-enforcement! [06:06] QRZ, absolutely - i reckon that a script has a bug in it [06:07] Guys, I'm having sound problems... I hear startup music... but both flash and my mp3 files aren't making any sound. Any ideas?(Ubuntu 9.04) [06:07] barney: in my instance, that is not an option, is that the only way? [06:07] Nith: I don't know, why is modprobe not an option? [06:07] alex_______: You hav the restricted extras installed? [06:08] Hello all. Anyone have a secret package for a Bochs with its native debugger? For the life of me I can't compile 2.3.7 or 2.3.6 with the Ubuntu 8.10 default toolchain. [06:08] Ali_: I think you need to find a local guru who can help you.... [06:08] hehe ok thanks losher :) [06:08] barney: has to do with building ubuntu for an embeded device and modules.dep not being present [06:08] graelin: Yes. [06:09] nith: Ah, ok, that's going beyond my knowledge. Maybe ask somewhere people are discussing the kernel. [06:09] Or perhaps an easier question: What's the Ubuntu way to switch your default toolchain? [06:09] ubottu: !toolchain [06:09] Sorry, I don't know anything about toolchain [06:10] ubottu: !gcc [06:10] Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [06:10] barney: thanks anyway [06:11] nith: No problem, good luck with your embedding. [06:11] Is there any way I can set NetworkManager to connect to wifi at startup, instead of waiting for the gnome login? [06:12] barney: I enjoy an auto-login, which then auto-connects the WiFi. [06:13] AnyTim: Thanks, that could be workaround, but I don't really want an auto-login. Would really like to login and find my emails already downloaded by fetchmail though. [06:14] does google cal work with evolution? [06:15] and for that matter, can I install a vCard into evolution? [06:16] hi. i have 2 questions. how can i create a pdf on ubuntu ? is there something like pdfprinter? [06:16] the other one is: mplayer wont play any videos [06:16] froes, you can use openoffice to save docs as pdf's [06:16] froes: you may need a codec pack for the video problem [06:16] rm files only sound [06:16] Hi Froes, what application are you using to generate your document? What gastly said. [06:16] i was using gedit actually [06:17] No Bochs-debugging fans in here, then? [06:17] froes: let me see if I can find the commands for you [06:17] (Or awake) [06:17] froes, open up your saved file with openoffice and then save it as a pdf :) [06:17] froes: you don't need to do that. === kristian1halonen is now known as n0gear [06:17] froes: Select file/print, then you should have a choice of printers or 'Print to File'. [06:17] barney, how could i do then ? [06:18] 'print to file' should make a pdf. [06:18] AndyTim: tried #bochs ? [06:18] sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 [06:18] losher: Yes, thanks for your response. [06:18] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [06:18] sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gxine libxine-main1 libxine-extracodecs ogle ogle-gui [06:18] actually, there's a button labeled 'PDF' in the toolbar 'Export to pdf', this will do the trick froes [06:19] froes: i ran those commands and my video started working properly, maybe that will work for you? [06:19] if anyone else has any input on that, feel free [06:19] is there anyway that I can install the packages in ubuntu using synaptic without the access of internet? [06:19] getting the files from my local machine folder? [06:19] godfreym: Yes, you can create a package download script [06:20] godfreym: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Synaptic/PackageDownloadScript [06:20] Very well, then. Best of luck to all. [06:20] I need help understanding the reputation of linux being stable, robust, never needs to be shutdown [06:20] mikeshollen, i have installed ubuntu-restricted-extras already. let me chech the other one [06:21] krammer: ? [06:21] krammer: never needs to be shutdown is a bit of an exaggeration, especially on the desktop. The rest is true. [06:21] krammer: I don't know if I would go as far as never [06:22] krammer: but when you get it working properly, it tends to keep working properly for the most part if you aren't downloading and installing lots of updates [06:22] mikeshollen, Couldn't find package gstreamer0.10-pitfdll libxine-main1 [06:22] froes: some of those might be old [06:22] linux = errors errors then spend time, lots of time, tryng to rectify the problem [06:22] froes: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs [06:22] froes: just ignore the ones it can't find [06:22] I learn more studying a programming language than the os [06:22] geirha:thanks that would help me resolve my issue [06:23] because I dont have a high speed connection [06:23] krammer: so would that the $10 argument or the $5 one? [06:23] i think it`s the configuration on the codecs and demuxer [06:23] krammer, learning an os can help you make your study of programming languages more effective, coz eventually you'll program for the OS ;) [06:23] krammer: linux is not macintosh, it's not 100% plug and play, but there is a ton of great free open source stuff out there and the os is very robust and can be very fun [06:23] krammer: if you don't want to spend time playing with it, buy a Mac [06:24] ive been with linux 3 whole years enjoy it but when it comes to system errors not fun [06:24] mac [06:24] for what? [06:24] mikeshollen: Not sure that's true, ubuntu aims to be easy to use out of the box. [06:24] slm [06:24] mikeshollen, what is under codecs and demuxer on your mplayer? [06:25] What does it mean when it says "Package has no installation candidate"? [06:25] my desktop blows mac away [06:25] maybe buy a machine with linux pre-installed, then you don't have to worry about hardware compatibiltiy. [06:25] barney: i agree, ubuntu is great! but it will inevitably have to face a problem that mac never will. ubuntu supports lots of different hardware manufacturers while all the hardware that goes into macintosh is proprietary [06:26] barney: therefore, mac will always be more ready to go out of the box than windows, linux, or any other OS that doesn't come pre-bundled with proprietary hardware [06:26] sure and the cost for mac is crazy [06:26] you know, I get a sort of 'evil' feeling when I use apple's products :p [06:27] krammer: you are trading a higher cost for less time spent adjusting and fixing issues [06:27] gastly, you know, that there is a logo called "evil inside" below the "intel inside" logo on macs? [06:28] there is no intel inside on macs, they don't have any stickers lol [06:28] can any say how to use nokia pc swit [06:28] pw-toxic, lol [06:28] intel inside sticker i mean [06:28] mikeshollen, you just cant see them ;) [06:28] invisible! [06:28] damn that's cool technology [06:28] mikeshollen, they are inside the pc! [06:29] no i'm just kidding.. you have to use black light to be able to see the logo [06:29] pw-toxic: shouldn't they just say "Intel Here" if they're both inside? [06:29] lol [06:30] mikeshollen, since this logo is a hidden one which no one can see, intel printed their real logo: "intel everywhere" [06:31] mikeshollen, can you tell me what's under codecs and demuxer on your mplayer? [06:31] anyone else have an idea about NetworkManager, and whether it can work before any login to the desktop? [06:31] froes: did you find the 'print to file' option in gedit? [06:32] Truthfully tho, they are the "easiest" out of the box solution. They require literally 0 maintenance throughout the year, and give you all the goodies that Terminal has to offer. It's definitely a LOT more expensive than buying a cheap PC and using Linux. That's the trade off. You have to decide how much your time is worth, and whether or not you really enjoy playing with the OS. If, Krammer, you really really hate spe [06:32] froes you normally do not need to play with that just to play vids or dvds [06:32] I like both. [06:32] !ot [06:32] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [06:33] barney, yeah. thanks. i forgot to thank you guys [06:33] im having prob to accessing my nokia in ubuntu any 1 HERE SOLVE FOR ME? [06:33] froes: No problem, you're welcome. [06:33] gotta run, laters [06:33] chuck_, it'a just because i have installed all codecs and i still dont have videos working [06:34] barney, just by curiosity: is there a command line to do that? like if i use vi ? === mcasadevall is now known as NCommander [06:34] yes, there's a few things. 'enscript' will make a postscript file from plaintext, then you can convert it to pdf. [06:35] What does it mean when I report a bug to launchpad and no one can reproduce it? Should I reinstall the package that has a problem? [06:35] humm from postcript i know how to do it .. i use a lot of tex [06:35] I just installed a minimal Ubuntu and I have everything working except for my notifications. When I had a standard installation of ubuntu running, my tray notifications were grey and transparent. [06:35] They look like this now: http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/6029/screenshotwbv.png [06:36] Is there a package I'm missing? [06:36] iaindalton: one of the dev's will usually ask you to run a debug program to capture data that might tell them what's going on. [06:36] froes: e.g. run $ enscript -o - file | ps2pdf - > file.pdf === gboi is now known as glick [06:37] scunizi: I've attached a bunch of debug data and answered every question so far, but they say I'm the only one with this bug. [06:37] but couldnt figure out the mplayer tho. it forks on totem, but i dont like it that much. i usually use mplayer [06:37] barney, thanks [06:37] http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/6029/screenshotwbv.png [06:37] http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/6029/screenshotwbv.png [06:37] iaindalton: have they asked you to create a new user and test if the bug exists with the new user? [06:37] weird ... cant copy/paste addresses from here [06:37] scunizi: No. I should try with the guest user, though. [06:38] brb [06:38] iaindalton: not with the guest.. make a new user with full privilidges and try with that. [06:39] . [06:39] .. [06:39] .. [06:39] ... [06:39] 321 [06:39] we'll be doing morris code next. [06:40] scunizi: Didn't get your message because I was using the guest account (have same problem). What might be different if I use an acct with full privs? [06:40] I am having troubles with mpd on new jaunty install === DETECH is now known as frozia [06:40] I have it all configured, ln -s music into /var/lib/mpd/music and now "suco mpd --create-db" doesn't find any music. [06:40] How do I put conky on the desktop and not in a separate window? [06:40] can someone help? [06:41] iaindalton: because it will create a new /home for that new user without any of the cruft that might be associated with your account and the guest account. [06:41] iaindalton: what's the bug anyway? [06:41] scunizi: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/380428 [06:42] scunizi: as of 9.04 (or maybe 8.10) the guest acct is created from scratch every time it's used (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Intrepid/GuestAccount) [06:43] the bug is that F1 doesn't summon the manual in Evince, but does in other Gnome apps [06:43] iaindalton: I didn't know that. that is a weird bug [06:43] how i can update my gnome? [06:44] using 2.22.2 now [06:44] can we run .exe file in ubuntu [06:44] iaindalton: it's one of those things that will drive you crazy trying to fix but doesn't really affect the system.. [06:44] deepak: no [06:44] how i can update my gnome? using 2.22.2 version now [06:45] How can I use an applet with totem? [06:45] scunizi: Yep; now that I know it doesn't affect anyone else I don't want to take the launchpad admin's time, so I'm in here ;-) [06:45] i have developed an applicatioin in vb.net and now i have its EXE file . So tell me if there is any process to execute the application [06:45] deepak: wine? [06:45] deepak: nope.. vb doesn't work in linux as far as I know.. that's microsoft specific. [06:45] deepak: if it's .NET it's CLR, right? (Is that the right acronym?) [06:46] ok thanks [06:46] Mono supports CLR [06:46] deepak: http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page [06:46] yes .net is CLR [06:47] is there a way to discover which encoding my avi file have? if it`s xvid, divx, or whatever? [06:47] any one got the dwl 520 prisim 2.5 wifi card working with 9.04 and hostap [06:48] froes: never tried it but maybe by right mouse clicking on it and choosing properties.

(i.e. most matching packages/kernel)... I usually think Lenny goes with Intrepid... but not sure which goes with Etch [13:22] Lantizia: the debian releases are not tied in [13:22] ikonia, I didn't say they were [13:22] Lantizia: you said they are counterparts [13:22] ikonia, But if you had to pick a ubuntu release that had the most matching packages as etch - which would you pick? [13:22] Lantizia: they are not matched like that [13:22] Can I use the default version of gcc to cross compile for powerpc? (from intel) [13:22] lo127: if you have a PPC part [13:22] Hi, ... All [13:23] lo127: PPC toolchain === Free-Shell is now known as aleksandarr [13:23] ikonia, any sugestions on where I can find one that works for ubuntu? [13:23] I can't delete MD0 Raid 1 while setting up the partitions on a new install of HH [13:23] lo127: you have to build your own toolchain [13:23] ikonia, When Intrepid was made it took Sid... Sid/Testing was shotly after taken as Lenny - thus Lenny is most like Intrepid, or Intrepid most like Lenny [13:23] Please help [13:23] Kindly [13:23] Lantizia: they are not linked [13:23] someone knows to me to help, when I insert jack audio the external cases if not restart l' audio does not work [13:24] ikonia, however in direct, you can see can see they are linked [13:24] they are not [13:24] yes they are === aleksandarr is now known as Free-Shell [13:24] ikonia, nah, are you sure? isn't there some kind of powerpc cross compiler port of gcc? [13:24] Lantizia: then you have no reason to ask the question if you know they are linked and how [13:24] ikonia, I'm asking about Etch not Lenny [13:24] Wipster: cant think of anything that's 'proactive' like that (buzzword alert) [13:24] lo127: the compiler is not the only thing used to cross-compile, you need the toolchain, that is the limiting factor [13:24] I can't delete it. It says it may be in use [13:24] Which Ubuntu release is most package compatible with Etch? [13:25] Lantizia: yes, and I'm saying they are not linked, if you think they are linked you should know whwat version you want [13:25] How do I set firefox flashplayer quality settings to low forever? [13:25] Lantizia: they are not linked - the package versions are not designed to be cross-distro [13:25] Wipster: but I would look at what CUPS does under the covers to see how it can 'sniff' new pritners on the network [13:25] I can't install it because I can't delete MD0 [13:25] I'm going to ask you guys something not directly related with ubuntu. More related with c language programming doing with makefiles. Can I ? [13:25] chamuscas: no thanks [13:26] chamuscas: this is for ubuntu support [13:26] ikonia, a standalone cross compiler and maybe som binutils will do [13:26] chamuscas: check /tpic [13:26] hey ubuntuers, I am currently running 9.04, and am about to install the windows 7 RC on another partition, which will screw up GRUB, what is the fastest way to get grub up and running again? [13:26] lo127: so that's a tool chain [13:26] Wipster: maybe there's something there that you can run periodically to detect any new printers found [13:26] ikonia, true [13:26] ikonia, =/ ok :) [13:26] she_dyed, ok well looking at the ring buffer there are messages of printer connected etc just I need to gave the event that the ring is getting [13:26] !grub > mynameistux [13:26] mynameistux, please see my private message [13:26] ikonia, a very small one [13:26] ikonia, Stop ignoring the question [13:26] lo127: yes, but you still need to build one, [13:26] Lantizia: I'm not ignoring any question [13:26] I didn't say they are meant to be cross distro [13:26] she_dyed, yeh I'l have a look at cups see if I can find anything in there [13:26] Lantizia: they releases are not linked, [13:27] ikonia, where can i check that thing, and what is that? [13:27] Wipster: or maybe inotify? might be helpful [13:27] And stop saying they are not linked, linked or not linked - IT DOESN'T MATTER [13:27] chamuscas: check a PM from ubottu [13:27] Which Ubuntu release is more package compatible with Etch? [13:27] Lantizia: none [13:27] Bollox [13:27] !PM [13:27] Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first.

[13:27] Lantizia: then stop asking [13:27] ikonia, or istall from packages, any sugestion on where to find it? some say that the default gcc compiler can cross compile given the correct flags [13:27] someone knows to help me, when I insert jack audio the external cases if not restart audio does not work [13:27] oki :) [13:28] lo127: you can use the default compiler to build your tool chain [13:28] ikonia, You know damn well what I'm asking [13:28] Please help. I can't delete RAID 1 device MD0 [13:28] lo127: then in that toolchain you can build a PPC compiler [13:28] lo127: hence "chain" [13:28] I am editing partitions manually [13:28] Lantizia: yes and I'm telling you there isn't an answer they are not designed to be compatibnle [13:28] ikonia, And I'm not saying they are compatible! [13:28] Lantizia: you can try pakckage see how you get on [13:28] I'm just asking which is most similar in terms of packages ! [13:28] Lantizia: they are not similar [13:28] ikonia, oh, I see [13:28] Lantizia: they have no relation [13:29] what about super grub disc, is that easier than the booting ubuntu option for repairing grub? [13:29] Yes they DO [13:29] Lantizia: then if you know they do - why are you asking ? [13:29] They come from the same place... Sid [13:29] Lantizia: you already know the answer [13:29] No I don't! [13:29] ikonia, given that I find one, can't it be installed true a package? [13:29] france [13:29] Lantizia, do you have an ubuntu support question?

It' Ubuntu related [13:30] Lantizia: the ubuntu releases don't have a direct link to ubuntu releases, so there is no way to match ubuntu apckages to debian packages outside mapping libraries/dependencies through specifcailly to see if something will work [13:30] rafal, #ubuntu-pl [13:30] ikonia, forget it, it was a stupid question :) [13:31] Lantizia, please chat elsewhere [13:31] ikonia, that paragraph makes no sense at all [13:31] lo127: sorry, I got most of what you aksed, just the lat part wasn't clear [13:31] Lantizia, You're headed for trouble if you mix Debian with Ubuntu repos and vice-versa.

[14:45] edit /etc/resolv.conf and put in "nameserver 202.163.96.3" [14:45] but use ur own nameserver ip [14:45] [T]ank, ...or 4.2.2.1 which is a public DNS server. [14:45] hello, is there any way to set Window Rules (as in Compiz Fusion) within Fluxbox? [14:45] you can also try out opendns.com for their nameserver [14:46] yes tiyowan i even istalled the drivers but Im stuck after that [14:46] (or any other light WM) [14:46] [T]ank, If you can resolve IPs with that, then it's your router's nameserver configuration.

[14:51] guys, i noticed with Acer One running Linpus linux, it's pidgin supports webcam... why does ubuntu pidgin doesn't support webcam?

I know it is 18 month support, just wanted to have a GOOD source of that. [14:53] [T]ank, Ok. If that didn't work, then the resolver seems broken. Either that or your ISP is redirecting DNS queries to their own nameservers. Perhaps they have a broken nameserver... [14:53] [T]ank: not sure if this will work, since im in redhat atm, but try typing in setup in terminal [14:54] Anyone know of a fix for the evtouch driver (bug reports seem to be idle)?

[15:24] !wine | GnuBoi [15:24] GnuBoi: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [15:24] erUSUL: Thank you, switching to "uxa" rendering fixed the problem. [15:24] erUSUL: i got i thanks http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel [15:24] sbalneav: no problem; glad it was an easy fix [15:25] erUSUL iput this command and the camera worked on the test but is not working on cheese http://paste.ubuntu.com/189051/ [15:25] how do i set the domainname for a jaunty desktop that uses NetworkManager? It usually just works for me, but this one laptop is not. hostname -f only returns hostname, and /etc/hosts does not have the domainname on the 127.0.1.1. line [15:25] i am using a wired nic [15:26] does ubuntu provide a bind-chroot package like red hat to set up the environment automatically? [15:26] slestak: edit /etc/name [15:26] Heidi88x: it is a problem with permissions... do « sudo adduser $USER video » [15:26] So I've got to turn off the system bell, it's disturbing. I'd rather have a visual feedback, like a screen flash or something, which the help suggests, but it references the "System bell" tab in sound preferences, which isn't there. How can I get a visual bell instead of the audible one? I'm running jaunty 9.04 amd64 [15:26] mdm: thix, i will look at that. [15:26] i am trying to delete a file, but when i "ls -l" the file i get this: -????????? ? ? ? ? filename.ext. how do i delete corrupt data? [15:26] slestak: try the 'domainname' command [15:26] Heidi88x: after that run « id » and check that the video group is listed there [15:27] !chroot [15:27] chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot) [15:27] Boohbah: i giess a better question would be, shoudl this be sth that NM did alreadt [15:27] I am amazed with Ubuntu :) [15:27] the first time I moved from Suse [15:27] Boohbah: you really dont want to do that, domainname is part of th nis packace. Sort of a severe way to simply change a boxes host name [15:28] Boohbah: domainname is part of nis, which i am tryign to do AD auth with likewise open. i wonder if LW does nto have a dependency on nis? or should it? [15:28] vickyiyer: I used to be a big Gentoo guy, but got tired of waitign for packages to compile and then having to spend hours on settings afterwards - Ubuntu just works out of the box for me [15:28] hi [15:28] Jack_Sparrow: thanks, I know what it does... I just don't want to set it up manually :) [15:28] erUSUL this what i got http://paste.ubuntu.com/189053/ [15:28] Boohbah: nis is not currently installed [15:28] how do i list the installed files from some package with aptitude? [15:29] moonpup I dont do 64bit so I gave you what I could. [15:29] Heidi88x: ooops... « ls -al /dev/video0 » ? [15:29] slestak: your going about it the wrong way. Host name is simply a file read on init. As for AD integration you need samba and ldap, bit not NIS [15:30] How can I install a package from karmic on jaunty? [15:30] Jack_Sparrow: no problem... the red hat bind-chroot makes it so incredibly simple I was hoping ubuntu had something similar [15:30] i am trying to delete a file, but when i "ls -l" the file i get this: -????????? ? ? ? ? filename.ext. anyone have ideas? [15:30] moonpup This is the right place to ask [15:30] !pinning | pozic [15:30] pozic: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto [15:30] echo_, try nautilus [15:30] mdm: yes, for previous installe likewise open depends on winbn (at least until v5)., this is the 1st jaunty install that hasnt "Just Worked" [15:30] metalfan_: i have [15:30] it does not find file erUSUL [15:30] pozic: but keep in mind that is unsuported and potientaly dangerous [15:31] i cannot ad auth because i have no fqdn, and cannot find the domain controller. Boobah propsed I use the domainname command, but it is not on my box [15:31] Heidi88x: « ls -al /dev/video* » === zagabar2 is now known as zagabar11 === zagabar11 is now known as zagabar2 [15:31] dumb question - but for X11 forwarding over ssh to work, it has to be set in both the sshd_config and the ssh_config files right? [15:31] mdm: /etc/name does not exist on my sysem, should I jus tmake it, lemme look at my other desktop [15:31] metalfan_: nothing shows up in nautilus [15:31] erUSUL < >> [15:32] slestak: if you want nis you will need to setup yp services. It is a competing technology to AD that predates it by about 20 years. This means setting up maps to share amongst multiple unix and unix like systems. But if you want to integrate a linux box to AD samba is what you want [15:32] guys [15:32] mdm: nope, doesnt exist on a desktop that does work for ad auth [15:32] echo_, then i dont know [15:32] slestak: /etc/hostname === zagabar2 is now known as zagabar11 [15:32] Why cant I change name to "zagabar1"? [15:32] i'm unable to connect to my apache server after installing, it complains that the site appears to be valid, but browser unable to establish a connection [15:32] zagabar11 It must be registered to someone else [15:32] Heidi88x: ok everything seems ok but cheese still has problems [15:33] on both the mahine that works and the one that doesnt, the /etc/hostname only coantains the first portion of fqdn, the hostname [15:33] let me see if samba-common is on the machien that isnt working [15:33] Heidi88x: sudo aptitude install xawtv [15:33] Heidi88x: lets try another program [15:34] mdm: yueah, samba-common is there, and smbclient. [15:34] !register > zagabar11 [15:34] zagabar11, please see my private message [15:34] slestak: do you mean /etc/hostname only has its host name and it does not have its fully qualified domain name? That is normal. [15:35] mdm: yes, but executing "hostname -f" is still only producing the hostname, which is an error [15:35] #wvuloud [15:35] slestak: welcome to ubutnu and why people tell you its not really unix :) [15:35] erUSUL it finish everything but it didnt install any packages [15:36] Heidi88x_: Aplications>Sound video > xawtv ??

[15:38] !irc > zagabar11 [15:38] zagabar11, please see my private message [15:38] yep and with the msg can I isntall msn here like the real one erUSUL [15:38] Heidi88x_: there other apps to test like "comorama; came" [15:39] i get a problem with php www sites, it wants to download the .php rather than showing it, any ideas? [15:39] Heidi88x_: the only cleint i know supports msn and webcam is amsn [15:39] im setting up my "fit-pc2" containing the pulsbo platform (intel), gdm tells me that it needs a file called Xpsb.so.... this file is located inside a package called: xpsb-glx. which seems only available for intrepid ( https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mobile/+archive/ppa ) but im running jaunty currently...what can i do?

[15:39] Dam0: was that a script, or was it you? [15:39] Myrtti>: script [15:39] slestak: add it to the hosts file [15:39] Disable it. [15:40] how to sleep laptops in ubuntu? [15:40] Myrtti>: i simple typed a command mate [15:40] mdm: doh, it is there for the machine that is working. ty [15:40] i dont need to disable it [15:40] Dam0: so I didn't trigger it? [15:40] good. [15:40] do anyone uses gmplayer ??? with AVI video (video/x-msvideo) i get frame sync error [15:40] nope [15:40] i get a problem with php www sites, it wants to download the .php rather than showing it, any ideas? [15:40] lol [15:40] :) [15:41] slestak: other then that you really do not need a domainname on a lan. You need to add it to certain services and that is done in the configuraiton of those services. The two I can think of off the top of my head are apache2 and sendmail. [15:41] well hope it works is installing erUSUL amsn [15:41] Heidi88x_: also there is ajava based one... "mercury" http://mercury.im/#Download [15:42] ding, ding, one more win laptop converted. update bug#1 [15:42] slestak: I take it you understand unix? if so I can warn you try not to confuse them. My solaris box refuses to run some linux commands and vice versa. It really dosnt like it much [15:43] Heidi88x_: well i leave know. Good luck with msn + webcam. See you [15:43] Should I get an AMD video card or an nVidia? [15:43] colblood: do you have the appropriate AddHandler line for x-httpd-php in your apache conf? [15:43] brb [15:43] that could be it i guess [15:43] where's that located? and what needs to be changed [15:43] hi [15:43] Hi [15:44] im running ubuntu 8.04 and i have a piece of software that needs avr-gcc 4.3.1 to work [15:44] hi [15:44] Hi, is there a way to have my Ubuntu partition boot in terminal mode and stay on tty1 on startup? [15:44] thanks erUsul [15:44] hi @ all [15:44] can i somehow make that program use the 4.3.1 packages without affecting the whole system [15:44] HI [15:44] colblood: have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP [15:44] or install the 4.3.1 over thye 4.2.2? [15:44] snooflecake: all boxes do that, if there not broken. Do you mean not boot into X? if so just remove the display manager from the startup scripts [15:45] !find gcc [15:45] Found: gcc, gcc-4.3, gcc-4.3-base, gcc-4.3-doc, gcc-4.3-locales (and 38 others) [15:45] i'm a newbie and would like to install ubuntu on a server for testting purpuse, would it be really bad if i install ubuntu desktop for this is not command line only and i can use stuff like packages managers [15:45] laxxa541, which ubuntu ? [15:45] i try to find an app, how do i use "finde" for? [15:45] 8.04 [15:45] arvind_khadri: hows exams? [15:45] mdm: thanks, yeah that's what i meant. i'll try and figure that out :) [15:45] there is not a big gap between ubuntu server and desktop [15:45] Hi [15:46] snooflecake: what display manager do you use? gdm? kdm? [15:46] guess no one knows [15:46] whats the easiest way to quickly scan ip range for names of the computer? [15:46] mdm: gdm. [15:46] BenTM: "find" cam look for file with specific names, patters or attributes (size, ownership, perms) but "locate" is likely what you need [15:47] can someone help me a little with ssh/pam authentication ? [15:47] madwill: it's usually considered polite to give folks at least a few minutes to see and respond to your question. [15:47] laxxa541, you would have to compile it, better is to shift to a latest release , whatever suits you [15:47] snooflecake: update-rc.d -f gdm remove. But then you either have to start it every time you want gnome or add it back with update-rc.d gdm defaults [15:47] hmm. latest release is unstable on my laptop [15:47] madwill: (the answer, by the way, is to go ahead and install the desktop version if you're new to ubuntu) [15:47] i think locate compare only !? [15:47] 9.04 i mean, and 8.10 isnt as stable as 8.04 for some reason [15:49] laxxa541, 9.04 uses gcc 4.3 [15:49] windows mashed grub =( [15:49] laxxa541 what you want is in the backports/proposed repo list but that wont help with your situation much [15:49] mdm: so i can still just do startx to get gnome back temporarily right? or until i kill it? [15:49] and i dont know how to reset it .. followed the tutorials but grub commands told returns error messages [15:49] joule Windows installs will always smash grub [15:49] Does anyone know what would cause my Ubuntu PC to be able to see, but not access my windows PC on the network? Windows can access Ubuntu with no problems. [15:49] Does anyone know why Gparted in 9.04 installation wont show the Windows 7 partitions I /just/ created? [15:49] snooflecake: yes as long as xinit is installed [15:49] yeah [15:49] i know! ive read accounts of people who installed 4.3.1 in 8.04 without issues but no details given [15:50] I installed Windows 7, and went to ubuntu to install, but it doesnt see the windows 7 ntfs partitions [15:50] my laptop speakers seem to be much quieter after switching from windows to linux. the volume is set all the way up on laptop volume dial and on linux sound. Any suggestions? [15:50] Hello everybody! Can someone help me with ALSA sound? I have a 5.1 system and my Subwoofer plays sound as usual speaker - not like bass :9 [15:50] qriva: you mean they appear as free space? [15:50] sipior: yes [15:50] Ubuntu 64bit [15:50] mdm: thank you for your help, i am very excited now [15:50] qriva: you need to install ntfs-3g drivers i think [15:50] laxxa541: I have 8.04 installed on 5 systems, none of them have issues. I dont ask about them because they are not broken. [15:51] Is there a way on ubuntu9.04 server to mount Private folder , with RSA authentication ? [15:51] Dreamglider: Can I do that in the installer? [15:51] how to use the locate command for ex. ? [15:51] qriva: you can do it in synaptic and terminal [15:52] one program, arduino, doesnt work with 4.2.2 ;( [15:52] !GRUB | joule: I assume you've read this... [15:52] joule: I assume you've read this...: 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 [15:52] qriva: if you're running/installing from the live cd, try using "sudo sfdisk -l /dev/" to show the partition table of the drive in question. [15:52] is there a working flashplayer for youtube yet? [15:53] i watch youtube :) [15:53] boss_mc: yes.. the grub commands told there returns some error msgs [15:53] Sheepherd I have not had any flash problems.. but I am back one release [15:53] anyway ill try again this weekend [15:53] joule: how far did you get? [15:53] igor, what version of ubuntu are you using [15:53] joule Some error message does not help. we need to know what error [15:53] Jack_Sparrow: i meant with Jaunty sry :/ [15:53] Chuck: I use 9.04 [15:53] np [15:53] BenTM, 'sudo updatedb' and then, 'locate ', perhaps... [15:53] sipior: should i add the partitions in fdisk by hand then? [15:54] Sheepherd i am using jaunty and have no problems with youtube... only tokbox gives me trouble [15:54] chuck: and Creative Audigy 2 [15:54] Does anyone know why I can't connect to my windows computer via Samba? It says "Unable to mount location: failed to retrieve share list from server" [15:54] how to scan just for host names with nmap on certain ip range? [15:54] sipior: i can see them with sfdisk [15:54] saprophyte: k... then i have to reinstall the plugin in guess [15:54] qriva: can you paste them via pastebin? [15:54] n0gear: rtfm ;) [15:55] can someone help me follow part 3 of this tutorial http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-and-using-openvz-on-ubuntu8.04 it says to Open /etc/sysctl.conf and make sure that you have the following settings in it: but i dont know how to open it through terminal [15:55] Vlet Unacceptable language.. ty [15:55] Jack_Sparrow: sorry =D [15:55] Vlet: too lazy :( [15:55] cool it works fine thx a lot :o) [15:55] n0gear: that was the wrong answer :-) [15:55] BenTM, welcome :-) [15:55] n0gear: yeah, there's a lot of switches [15:56] m45h, gksu gedit /etc/sysctl.conf [15:56] hi [15:57] igor, you can try this and see if it helps gksu gedit /etc/pulse/daemon.conf find default-sample-channels = 2 and change to whatever you have ie. 5 for 5.1 then run speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6 -l1 -twav [15:57] arvind i done vi /etc/sysctl.conf [15:57] sipior: erm it's on my other machine but i can tell you the output -- it first tells me that sfdisk doesnt support GPT, and to use Gnu Parted instead -- the listing is: 1. /dev/sda1 ID:7, 2. /dev/sda2 ID:7, 3. /dev/sda3 (0s across the board) "Empty", 4. /dev/sda4 (0s across the board), "Empty" [15:57] can i undo that command in terminsl [15:57] chuck_: Thank you! I'll try that now! [15:57] I updated to ubuntu 9.04 yesterday. now my printer (laserjet 1018) doesn't work currectly anymore. When I'm running "sudo hp-setup -i" I'm getting this error after selecting USB: laserjet 1018 No device selected/specified or that supports this functionality. [15:57] erUSUL: I hate to ask, as I'm guessing it going to be "obvious", but I had to install Tracker (no big problem), now I cannot figure out where to go set its preferences. I want to limit the search directories a bit, if possible. [15:58] question: i have 3 network cards eth0, eth1, ra0 (wireless). My computer will be connected to the internet either wired (eth0) or wireless (ra0), I want to be able to connect a computer to eth1 to access the internet is there a way to make all traffic go from eth1 to eth0 and ra0? [15:58] qriva: and using gparted on the same device lists it as empty? [15:58] gparted shows all unallocated space [15:58] yes sipior === AlphaX is now known as Guest13323 [15:59] i tried getting everything from apt with ntfs in it, but still nothing [15:59] huh? [15:59] qriva: the problem isn't the filesystem, it's the partition table. [15:59] sipior: are those two empty entries weird? [15:59] erUSUL: nevermind, I found it under System -> preferences -> search and indexing. [15:59] how do you resize hidden gnome panels?? [16:00] qriva: not necessarily; how many partitions did the windows install create? [16:00] 2 [16:00] qriva: then i'd say it's just fine [16:00] chuck_: one question: should I enable PulseAudio? I have it disabled [16:00] hi, i have ubuntu 9.04, amd 64 processor version, trying to download flash player, but only i find for i386 arquitecture [16:00] ah it's just the space between? [16:00] !flash64 [16:00] You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava [16:00] sipior: what do you suggest i do? [16:00] create a new table and reinstall? [16:01] I have a problem.. help please... [16:01] qriva: that's a good question. you might try wiping the disk, using gparted to partition the whole disk first, and then install windows on the desired partitions. [16:01] igor, since your editing the pulse conf file it might help but hold on a sec. [16:01] Hi, can someone tell me what's up with xorg.conf in Jaunty? Certainly it's delegating settings to somewhere else? [16:02] sipior: i am wary of doing that because Windows 7 creates that second 100mb partition [16:02] which is a "System" partition, im not sure I can match the type with tools other than the setup [16:03] Fawzib2, read about network-bridging [16:03] !ics [16:03] If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php [16:03] qriva: well, it probably did that because there were no partitions extant at installation time. you can keep the same partition structure you have now, just be sure to get the sizes of each partition from sfdisk. [16:03] igor, you can try this with alsa http://alsa.opensrc.org/SurroundSound [16:03] ok [16:04] chuck_: Thank you very much! [16:04] sipior: you think windows 7 will find the 100mb partition? What should I partition it as? [16:04] qriva: set it to whatever it is currently. just wipe the disk, and then recreate the two windows partitions exactly as they are. then utilise the remaining space for whatever other partitions you think you'll need. [16:04] igor, your welcome hope it helps [16:04] kk will do [16:04] thanks sipior [16:05] qriva: yep, good luck. [16:05] hello, all. i hate to ask, but i cannot find any info. i have a RCA VR5220 usb voice recorder. ubuntu does not recognize that there is any device connected. i do not care about automount. i just want to get into it and transfer files. the only thing i can find related to my problem is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7404650#post7404650 and as you will see, he took it back. proprietary won. please help, and thank you for it. [16:06] mdm: Thanks a lot! It worked great. Now rather than seeing the Ubuntu logo and the bar moving, can I see the verbose text when i am literally booting up? [16:06] snooflecake: glad to help you, that is the way servers boot btw [16:07] snooflecake: try ESC at boot? [16:08] she_dyed: well i can take the graphics off if i choose to, i just want it to automatically show verbose [16:08] edit your grub menu.1st iirc [16:08] i've installed Apache/2.2.11 but it could not find my files in /var/www [16:09] help? [16:10] does /var/www exist? [16:10] yes [16:10] i messed up quite lot of things :( [16:11] is there anything in it? [16:11] index.php [16:11] i have php extension [16:11] and whats the problem you;re having? [16:12] sorry if you've already explained - only just got back [16:12] no worries [16:12] i reinstalled apache2 [16:12] and it does not do anything at all... i had to run a2enmod for almost everything [16:12] before it started responding [16:12] GreaterCore, In /etc/apache2/sites-enabled, is your default vhost configured correctly (ie document root set to /var/www)? [16:12] hi [16:13] GreaterCore, Also, did you a2ensite default and then /etc/init.d/apache2 reload? [16:13] hi [16:13] hey [16:13] how r u ? [16:13] question - I am an experienced Linux user, just not ubuntu - I am trying to restore a friend's computer, he has backups on an External Harddrive formatted with the GPT file system. Anyways, WinXP doesn't support that format (big surprise right? especially considering vista formated it with GPT, I guess to get users to upgrade) [16:14] we're fine [16:14] anyways - I know linux has drivers for GPT, but does the current Ubuntu LiveCD have it compiled in? [16:14] a2ensite works! [16:14] what are all the a2enXXX commands for anyway? [16:15] eny have a facebook to hack my pet society [16:15] ? [16:15] :) [16:15] :( [16:15] :) [16:15] abo0di99: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [16:15] :( [16:15] GreaterCore, That sort of came with apache2 with a more scalable configuration scheme. [16:15] abo0di99, offtopic for here [16:15] rob_p: where do i read up more about them? [16:15] abo0di99: #ubuntu-offtopic [16:16] as for my problem, gparted does not recognize my voice recorder either, thanks for your help...anyone? [16:16] what does filtered mean in nmap scan results? [16:16] Hi guys, how do i change the desktop resolution using the command line in 9.04? [16:17] Im booting in recovery mode and selecting the command line, anyone got an idea how to change the resolution in Jaunty 9.04 from there? [16:17] How do I suspend my laptop per commandline? [16:17] GreaterCore, Basically the a2ensite/mod/whatever simply creates sym-links from the available vhosts, modules, etc. [16:17] bluegoon: you can try editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf [16:17] n0gear: filtered means someting is blocking the port so that nmap can not tell it is open. It is most commonly done to stop things like nmap used to crack their networks [16:17] top [16:18] does anyone have ubuntu running on a dell mini 12. I do and I can't seem to get external VGA port to output any signal to the monitor [16:18] ectospasm, weird, i dont have an /etc/x11 folder. === wgilpin is now known as bkarns [16:18] pgib: you mean the GUID partition table, yes? [16:18] does anyone have ubuntu running on a dell mini 12. I do and I can't seem to get external VGA port to output any signal to the monitor [16:18] bluegoon: note that the [16:18] X is a capital X [16:18] GreaterCore, you could also manually create the sym-links but it's more of a bother. [16:18] pgib: and yes, the live cd should be able to handle it without a problem. easy to check, at any rate. [16:19] ectospasm, ? [16:19] !give ikonia another test [16:19] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [16:19] !uptime [16:19] Sorry, I don't know anything about uptime [16:19] super, [16:19] what's the deal with python-elementtree in ubuntu? I have it but: ImportError: No module named elementtree [16:19] GreaterCore, For instance, if I have a vhost defined in /etc/apache2/sites-available called, "mydomain", I could enable it by creating a sym-link to it from within the /etc/apache2/sites-enabled directory. [16:19] Why dont I have an /etc/x11 folder? [16:20] bluegoon sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf === matt__ is now known as mattthew [16:20] thiebaude: im in recovery mode [16:20] Le-Chuck_ITA: try "dpkg -L python-elementtree" to see the actual name of the installed module. [16:20] bluegoon: you should have a directory /etc/X11, the X is capital/uppercase, if / or /etc is mounted correctly [16:20] ok - so nobody knows if the Ubuntu LiveCD support the GPT filesystem. Details on the intarwebs is sparse at best [16:20] does anyone have ubuntu running on a dell mini 12. I do and I can't seem to get external VGA port to output any signal to the monitor [16:20] Hey, I was wondering if I could have a little help. I'm trying to install my Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver, but Ubuntu 9.04 doesn't pick up any new hardware when I plug the USB in [16:20] GreaterCore, The command would be, "sudo ln -s /etc/apache2/sites-available/mydomain /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/mydomain" [16:20] ectospasm, let me go check, one sec [16:20] (don't know why you'd have /etc/ on its own partition, but it's possible I guess) [16:20] bluegoon: do you have a terminal [16:20] How do I find out what process is increasing my load average? I checked top, and whatever it is, isn't using CPU power [16:20] pgib: i answered your question already. and GPT is not a filesystem. [16:20] GreaterCore, But a2ensite is quicker! :-) === garethp is now known as Garethp [16:21] ok, well the partition has type 0xEE = GPT [16:21] hi all [16:21] i have installed a 120gb hdd but its old and seems to have bad blocks. formatting is enought to mark them a damaged or ther is something better? [16:21] as* [16:21] GreaterCore, Just remember that whenever you make a change (enable or disable a vhost, module, etc.), you need to reload apache. [16:21] BlueLaguna: it may be a combination of processes. If you have roughly twenty processes all at 5%, your CPU will be maxed. [16:21] sipior: I am not familiar with python (trying to run a program) but the directory is called elementtree [16:21] No one? [16:21] Ok, so it is the partition table - [16:21] GreaterCore, ...meaning, "sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload" [16:22] still interesting, considering that it shows in FDISK as a partion itself. I guess it behaves as a nested patition "container" sort of like LVM2 [16:22] hi ppl [16:22] Hi, I've got ubuntu installed on a MacBook Pro, and I'm having some issues with keys. First, I'm not able to use any of the F* keys, such as (alt+F2) because it keeps trying to control brightness. How do I fix this? [16:22] sipior: what kind of partition table do I want? not GPT? [16:22] sipior: Windows 7 complains that my partition is GPT [16:22] Le-Chuck_ITA: you're looking for a file like elementtree.py or the like. [16:22] BlueLaguna: take those load averages with a grain of salt. [16:23] hi every one [16:23] qriva: no, you'd probably want the standard MBR. [16:23] am kinda new here [16:23] gentleman: hi [16:23] sipior: what's the standard? [16:23] hey back [16:23] sipior: I have /usr/lib/python2.6/xml/etree/ElementTree.py, I changed the first line of the script to read "from ElementTree import ElementTree as et" [16:23] gentleman: did you have an ubuntu question? [16:23] but it still says no module named ElementTree [16:23] actually am new ubuntu user [16:23] qriva: MBR is used on machines with BIOS. [16:24] gentleman, Welcome! :-) [16:24] Le-Chuck_ITA: and that worked? [16:24] thnx :) [16:24] !ask | gentleman, [16:24] gentleman,: 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. :-) [16:24] chuck_, Lighten-up dude! [16:24] Hey, I was wondering if I could have a little help. I'm trying to install my Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver, but Ubuntu 9.04 doesn't pick up any new hardware when I plug the USB in. I'm kind of new to Ubuntu [16:24] oh no, mod_rewrite is not working properly for cakephp :( [16:24] sipior: no it says "no module named ElementTree" [16:24] am an oracle developer an i wanna install oracle10g on ubuntu 9.04 [16:25] sipior: note the upper case now :) [16:25] i donno how to do so ? [16:25] What is the keyboard shortcut to get to Applications in the top left corner? [16:25] gentleman, Wish I could help... not familiar with oracle or any of the implementations for Linux. [16:25] rob_p, it was to let him know to ask his question not to be mean you read into what you want [16:25] gentleman, server edition? [16:26] means what ?? [16:26] gentleman, did you try asking google? [16:26] gentleman: http://www.supinfo-projects.com/en/2006/oracle_on_ubuntu/ [16:26] gentleman, http://www.google.com/search?q=install+oracle10g+on+ubuntu+9.04 [16:26] out of 1472 people in here, noone knows anything about my problem concerning my inability to mount my voice recorder? i guess i will take it back. proprietary wins again. yeh! [16:26] gentleman, here is another how to: http://www.webxpert.ro/andrei/2009/05/31/instal-oracle-10g-xe-on-ubuntu-server-904-jaunty-jackalope/ [16:26] i tried but i found no solution for this edition [16:26] jackripper, try in #linux [16:26] What is the keyboard shortcut to get to Applications in the top left corner? [16:27] chuck_, No sweat man. I just didn't want a new Ubuntu user to get a wrong impression of the folks here. Just like you probably were, he's and excited new user! [16:27] bluegoon, you can use something Ctrl+Alt+tab to select the panel, then tab and the arrow keys [16:27] neurobuntu: thanks. i did not know i may have been in the wrong place. thanks again for the guidence...humbly [16:27] neurobuntu, kk [16:27] Le-Chuck_ITA: interesting. when i install the package on my machine, i get files in /usr/share/python-support (which is where they should live). did the package install anything there? also, which version of ubuntu? [16:27] hey all, i'm on 9.04 and I made my screen res smaller but now I want it higher 1900x1200 option has gone....anyone know how to get it back? [16:28] ceej, are you using nvidia? [16:28] ye [16:28] ceej, nvidia-settings [16:28] Okay so the line in menu.lst is "kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-generic root=UUID=1b5d8dd4-8911-4dc3-ba36-a852303ba833 ro quiet splash" what do I modify the quiet splash to in order for it to now display the loading graphic, but a verbose form by default? [16:28] have you installed the restricted driver? [16:28] I'm in there [16:28] snooflecake: take out "quiet" [16:28] It's still not an ioption in there though [16:28] sipior: as ElementTree.py is located in /usr/lib/python2.6/xml/etree/ElementTree.py I tried "from xml.etree.ElementTree" and it works... well it does not parse my (correct) html but that's another issue :) === _Kwitschibo is now known as Kwitschibo [16:29] ectospasm: thank you [16:29] snooflecake: no problem [16:29] snooflecake: note that taking out the quiet option can display a lot of ... oops [16:29] sipior: i think you mean msdos [16:30] qriva: i do not, sir. [16:30] sipior: "mbr" isnt a type of partition table [16:30] Does anyone here have ubuntu installed on a macbook? [16:30] savid: not I [16:30] savid, yes. Well, sort of. In a virtual machine under MAC. [16:30] would a restart help??? [16:30] qriva: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_boot_record [16:30] sipior: GUID vs MBR I understand, but when I create a new partition table it asks for a style for the table, msdos, bsd, aix, sun98, etc. [16:31] qriva: then choose msdos, yes. [16:31] savid, ...so I guess that doesn't count. :-) [16:31] k just checking :) [16:31] savid, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages [16:31] rob_p, yeah, just having issues w/ the mac keyboard. [16:32] lithax, yeah tried there, doesn't give much info on the issues I'm having [16:32] savid, I've never attempted to run anything but MAC OSX natively on my macbook. [16:32] Root Terminal dpesn't work in Jaunty. anyone else have that problem? [16:32] qriva: master boot records is the first part of the disk. It is where grub lies and where the partiotn table is. The format of that partition table is not a standard. Linux will understand bsd and sun disk lables. But what you want is called and IBM PC partition table or what is labeld msdos in fdisk. [16:32] savid, But Ubuntu runs beautifully in Vmware Fusion on Mac. === dadvocate-afk is now known as devilsadvocate [16:33] savid, It's actually amazing how functional and responsive it is. When I take it full screen, you can't tell it's virtualized! [16:33] legend2440: cant you just sudo a bash? === AlphaX is now known as Guest42586 [16:34] tones: sudo -i [16:34] devilsadvocate: same difference right? [16:35] tones: not exactly [16:35] mdm: ill reread the man page later.. thanks for the tip [16:35] tones: 'sudo a bash' is probably not a good idea any day of the week [16:35] tones: yes but i noticed it when i did gksudo nautilus and then tried right click> Open terminal here and it didnt work. it just saves me having to cd all over the place [16:36] Is it possible to write to HFS+ with Ubuntu 9.04? [16:36] how do i copy files from my comp to comp2 thru ssh? [16:36] !hfs [16:36] To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE [16:36] * applejues help [16:36] n0gear: use scp. scp [16:36] n0gear: scp file user@host:/directory [16:36] devilsadvocate: not that ive tried it.. ; legend2440: well post a bug report then i think [16:37] n0gear, I use sftp for that. [16:37] !FUSE [16:37] FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE. Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here: http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems [16:37] hi [16:37] !hi [16:37] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [16:38] n0gear, As long as the box you're accessing has a ssh server listening on it, sftp works a treat! [16:38] tones: ty [16:38] sebsebseb: ;) [16:38] can someone give an example with realistic command line? either scp or sftp? [16:38] I installed libgraphicsmagick3 version 1.3.5. When I do pkg-config --modversion GraphicsMagick I get 1.1.11, instead of the 1.3. version. How do I get pkg-config to output the correct version? === MadMax is now known as Guest19117 [16:39] and do i sftp from source or dest? [16:39] n0gear: scp file/to/copy user@remote.host:~/destination/folder [16:39] n0gear, I always use, "sftp -oUser=rob -oPort=2222 hostname" but if your ssh server is listening on the standard port, you can omit the, "-oPort..." bit. [16:40] n0gear: the man page is readable. [16:40] n0gear, Source or dest... does not matter. You just use put or get, just like FTP! [16:40] n0gear: scp user@remote.host:~/file/to/copy destination/folder [16:40] fasta: i know ... juust busy :) [16:40] in a hurry [16:40] !ping [16:40] ping yourself ;-) really the diodes all down my left side are sore [16:40] n0gear: note that ~ is generally /home/user [16:41] hello, how do I edit the mounts in gnome?

The syntax isn't difficult [16:44] ectospasm: I tried, didn't work, and I don't have time to mess with it [16:45] djdarkman: I guess this is the old Linux hand in me talking [16:45] hi whats the package for cheeseshop [16:45] in python [16:45] how do I format a partition as ext4? [16:45] plz help! [16:46] ectospasm: I did it the good old fstab way on my other system, but this time, I simple don't have the time to find out why is this not working on this particular machine [16:46] nsahoo: are you running 9.04?

I have ubuntu restricted extras, and I am using lame. How do I troubleshoot this problem? [16:51] ping ? [16:51] boby: is this a one time connection?

I'm already doin active directory authentication, which works great, but I just need it to mount the shares with the right user... [16:58] what is the best way to add a partition to a system? I can take an unallocated partition and format it and have it mounted through /etc/fstab everytime. But, looking through fstab .. there are several UUIDs .. how do I get them?

[18:26] felix_: bad cable? bad switch? on same lan... try moving to other lan see if that fixes [18:26] going for a reboot lets seee [18:26] sweetchildofmine, I don't think the mixing of ext3 and ext4 is the problem. I have Fedora 11 pre-release with ext3 and ext4 partitions and it works gret [18:26] mohan_, this will copy the entire hdd onto your external hdd [18:26] good luck wipster [18:26] cabrey: ok.. [18:26] s/gret/great [18:26] cabrey: boot with live cd and then? [18:26] help winedoors!? [18:27] JJC060: try #winehq [18:27] yes, it's not the problem. the problem is some kernel subfunction that's causing a hang at the most base level. [18:27] thnx [18:27] mohan_, then come back here [18:27] hi everyone... anyone interested in helping a ubuntu newbie? I have some problems with a wireless card (pcmcia) [18:27] cabrey: ok sir.. [18:27] I had my system lock up completely(no response) from just rhythmbox. [18:27] well I give up for now ... I just wish I could figure out if its my wireless or the network I'm trying to connect to [18:27] cabrey: i think live envi doesn't have Xchat right? [18:27] sweetchildofmine, divert all mail, to Mr. L. Torvalds [18:27] henrik1: what kind of card is it ? make? [18:28] mohan_, it doesn't but you can use mibbit.com [18:28] mohan_, hold on [18:28] mohan_, it required flash [18:28] sweetchildofmine, Don't rule out malfunctioning hardware. Have you tested your RAM? [18:28] cabrey: and my problem is network dont get detected while i am using live cd.. [18:28] cabrey: donno what will happen in live cd :( [18:28] fccf: it is a d-link dwl-g650+... when I insert it the whole system freezes and I have to cut the power. I've googled and tried different things without any results [18:28] certain, I just bought this ram off of newegg. [18:28] 2 gigs. [18:28] thanks again for trying to help :) bye. I may be back later! [18:29] cabrey: some say use ifconfig command to activate.. [18:29] I tested it, yes. [18:29] sepi2 [18:29] mohan_, you can use the dd command while in the live environment [18:29] sweetchildofmine, That's encouraging but no guarantee. RAM can be bad from the factory. [18:29] nang endi kabeh iki [18:29] if it was the ram, would I be able to find out from a log somewhere? [18:29] mohan_, for example: dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/media/disk/externalhdd/backup.img [18:29] I tested it with memtest about 90% of the way. [18:29] cabrey: wow.. great.. this was the thing i needed.. thanks cabrey.. [18:30] henrik1: this info is a little old but it might help ... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=34502 [18:30] cabrey: it also includes everything of that particular partition right? even grub? [18:30] hey i have a script which i wanted to execute after a particular time...can anyone tell me the shell command for timing the execution of a file [18:30] I need to update my EeePC to a realtime kernel - what is easiest ? Recompile the custom EeePC modules against it, or use Ubuntu Netbook ? [18:31] sweetchildofmine, Bad ram can often cause obscure problems whereby logs are often useless in diagnosing the problem. But if you already tested the RAM, that's probably not the issue. [18:31] yea, I tested it. mostly. I let it get to the fourth transform phase. [18:31] henrik1: the next option is ndiswrapper - apparently someone got it working on that [18:31] fccf: thanks, i'll look into it [18:32] mohan_, yes [18:32] fccf: I read about ndiswrapper although I didn't understand so much, it seems a little advanced [18:32] grobda24, if you need realtime, then a different distro from the Eee default is the best option [18:32] hey, anyone know how to stop pidgin from letting you know each time someone signs on... driving me nuts [18:32] cabrey: ok.. thanx man.. u are my saviour.. [18:32] mohan_, as long as grub is on that partition [18:32] cabrey: yeah i know.. [18:32] henrik1: pretty simple actually - install ndisgtk and ndiswrapper - use windows driver [18:32] started doing it as soon as I switched to 9.04 [18:32] mohan_, it might be in the MBR [18:32] lithax, I already have Ubuntu Hardy installed. [18:32] cabrey: ok [18:33] grobda24, have you tried the ubuntustudio rt kernel? [18:33] grobda24, ubuntu studio has a realtime kernel i believe [18:33] hey all [18:34] how do I add widgets to compiz ??? [18:34] ceej: go ask in #compiz [18:34] ceej, gdesklets? [18:34] lithax, cabrey , I did try it but forgot to recompile some modules. [18:34] ok thank you [18:34] b.b.a.l.l. [18:35] hey i have a script which i wanted to execute after a particular time...can anyone tell me the shell command for timing the execution of a file [18:35] kylepike: disable the plugin [18:36] PerryArmstrong, use at or cron to schedule this [18:36] unop; thanks [18:38] hello [18:38] !hi quaal [18:38] Sorry, I don't know anything about hi quaal [18:39] hi quaal [18:39] !hi | quaal [18:39] quaal: Hi!

HIGHLY annoying. need to turn it off. how [18:39] ok I think I figured it out, I've been copying data from ext4 to ext3.. .something you probably should never do. [18:39] cabrey: how do i restore that img? [18:39] cabrey: using the same dd command reverse? [18:40] so, all I need to do is upgrade the ext3 partition to ext4. [18:40] How difficult is it to install ubuntu server on a computer with no monitor or keyboard, and then administer through SSH? [18:40] any tweaks i can do to firefox to make it load a 32 MB HTML file from hard disk quicker? it's a single table [18:40] anyone using clonezilla? can u create a bootable disc which is able to restore the computer with it? [18:40] 32mb html? jeez [18:41] buttons840, not. [18:41] cabrey: are u there? [18:41] quaal, know of any articles that would be useful for me, I'm not experience in such things. === skynet is now known as Guest71413 [18:42] buttons840, the easiest way is you'll need some kind of console (keyb,monitor,etc) to do the initial install -- if this isn't possible, you can do a network install but that's a bit like shooting in the dark [18:42] buttons840, install it to the server like you would normally, enable ssh, make your changes (non-standard port etc) [18:42] test [18:42] then remove monitor/keyboard [18:42] I am having difficulties installing flash player. after i extract and double click the file and click run nothing happens?

[18:44] buttons840, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#Server%20and%20network%20installations [18:44] buttons840: How will you read the response if you dont have a monitor? [18:44] buttons840, use the force [18:44] google. its good for the heart. [18:44] Koheleth, Windows 7 is what Vista should have been, it's got some really nice features [18:45] but I digress [18:45] lithax, most of which have been around for years on the other platforms :) [18:45] How do you install flash player? [18:45] vista is ok for me, bit slow on startup but all works and looks better than xp anyway [18:45] !flash | Guest71413 [18:45] Guest71413: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [18:45] I like to duel boot and Ubuntu is fine [18:45] cabrey: hey.. how to restore it back?

[18:54] I was wondering if anyone is good with public_html [18:54] Koheleth, I'm using it now :) [18:54] jaimani: its in the disply area [18:54] meuserj, I guess apart from kicking up a stink on forums, there's not a lot you can do [18:54] cabrey: is it difficult to install? [18:54] lastlog Mud [18:54] mib_l0x28fna: what does "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /media/STORAGE" say? [18:54] mohan_, depends on how you want to. ssh, samba, nfs, etc [18:55] but i dont want to open display cause it hangs the system [18:55] Koheleth, there is a PPA available [18:55] cabrey: wow.. pretty complicated i think.. [18:55] whats that? [18:55] !PPA [18:55] With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad.

Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone. [18:56] ah... looks like if you touch /etc/defaults/google-chrome, you can opt out from that behavior... but it should really be opt in... or at least opting out should be more discoverable. [18:56] fccf: I installed the ndis-thing and downloaded the drivers for the gwl 650+ from d-links website, and after that I added the INF file to the ndisgtk.

[19:00] cabrey > vista showed its existance in 'my computer' and in network connections I believe....but because it is ReiserFS it cannot read it, and there are only 2 complicated to install apps for vista and reiser so i opted for linux live cd instead [19:01] bushpig, do you know the IP of the NAS box? [19:01] Sh3r1ff: ok that mounted it [19:01] Koheleth, keep in mind it is not "Chrome" it is "Chromium" -- theres a difference [19:01] mib_l0x28fna: "umount /media/STORAGE" and your fstab should work now [19:02] ok [19:02] cabrey > the documentation gave me a a few default IP's but ther browser did not find them [19:02] Sh3r1ff: I think maybe i didnt make the directory STORAGE that's why right? [19:02] mib_l0x28fna: 100% correct ;) [19:02] bushpig, Places > Network comes up with nothing? [19:02] Sh3r1ff: lol yeah i thought it would make it itself :P thanks for the help [19:02] henrik1: you may need to blacklist the module that modprobe (linux kernel) is trying to load by editing/creating /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist [19:03] mib_l0x28fna: easy to miss if you're used to hotplug ;) [19:03] cabrey > theres 'windows network' is that just a defaulkt icon in there ? if i click on it it says it cannot find any shares [19:03] Sh3r1ff: yeah thanks :D [19:03] says unable to mount also [19:04] bushpig, if you find the IP of the NAS, then you can open smb://IP.Address.Goes.Here in Nautilus [19:04] henrik1: see bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/371682 --- ndis is fix [19:05] Sh3r1ff: would u happen to also know the difference between xclient script and gnome? [19:05] cabrey, should beable to do it http from web browser also ? [19:05] bushpig, not if you want to access files [19:05] cabrey: geez adding the keys aint straight forward or am I missing something [19:05] ah sure [19:06] mib_l0x28fna: gnome is a desktop environment and xclient script sounds like a script [19:06] asd [19:06] fccf: I really don't know what to do... I read the link but I still feel kind of lost :( [19:06] Koheleth, not exactly :) just follow the instructions [19:07] can I not just download and import? [19:07] Sh3r1ff: lol yeah i know gnome the thing is my login is set to startup as xclient script yet it starts up as gnome that's why i was wondering why xclient script starts gnome [19:08] how you compile source code? [19:08] mib_l0x28fna, xclient harks back to the good ol' days of X, it can be configured to start any WM [19:08] mib_l0x28fna: at the login screen you can choose which session to use (default, gnome, last used, etc) maybe that can help ? [19:08] looking at the youtube tutorial, cool [19:09] lithax: ohh ok, but then what's the difference can't I just set it to startup Gnome instead of xlient script unless the xclient script also does something else [19:09] Nationiant: With gcc [19:09] gcc? [19:09] mib_l0x28fna, You can safely just select GNOME from the session list [19:09] oh [19:09] :) [19:09] Sh3r1ff: yeah im just wondering like the default is set to xclient script yet it starts with gnome ;) [19:09] lithax: ok cool, thanks [19:09] cabrey > where do i add the path in nautilis ? connect to server ?

[21:10] ploooop: sorry for the delay, how do i tell which version of wusb54gc i have again? [21:10] But fccf if there are 1500 People in this room why can not one person help with my question, that would because 70% are BNC's/Idlers [21:10] Ok done [21:10] MikeDezey, Appearance tab > Theme > Docky [21:10] hi, I've installed apache2 module, what modules I need to run cgi scripts in my localhost? [21:10] Oh god yes [21:10] Does anyone have this problem where full-screen games such as Nexuiz and Alien Arena are all herky-jerky and unplayable? the mouse that is. and it doesn't happen in windows so don't blame it on the graphics card. [21:10] Thank you very much [21:10] MikeDezey, np, dont like it much myself [21:11] jeold, - I have the same problem [21:11] nickUK` because either we dont have the answer or more likely they are busy helping other guys. But anyway, have you tried adding the short cut manually ? Or create a new shortcut from scratch and then add that ? [21:11] jeold, graphics card? [21:11] nickUK` I would like to add that Im not certain in any way that this is the smoothest way of getting it done [21:11] jeold, i got the same problem but i know that it's due to my graphic [21:12] !details | jeold [21:12] jeold - Try opening Terminal - cd /usr/games then once you have done that try loading say Alien Arena under root with sudo alien-arena [21:12] jeold: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [21:12] nickUK`: why? Because i.e. someone who know right answer is actually helping other man. Then s/he will be disappointed by your attitude and will take some rest instead of helping you. [21:12] Another thing: why is the command 'bonobo-activati' taking up 90% of my proccessing power? [21:12] jeold - That is what let me play Alien-Arena with no lag [21:12] hi, I've installed apache2 module, what modules I need to run cgi scripts in my localhost? [21:13] diffred, /join #ubuntu-server [21:13] how do i get wmv files to play [21:13] eaglestar, install ubuntu-restricted-extras [21:13] i have medibuntu installed which package is it [21:13] Hello, my ubuntu machine after an update isnt giving me the option under networking to connect to the wire network.. I have disabled networking and enabled it back .. all it gives me the option is to connect to wireless but thats not what i want. I have also rebooted. Anybody know why applying updates would have caused this? [21:13] eaglestar, gstreamer restricted plugins [21:14] cabrey so sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras? [21:14] eaglestar - I recommend using VLC Media player it can be found using the Synaptic Package Manager [21:14] How can I add an new line at the end of a text file using vi? [21:14] eaglestar, yes [21:14] eaglestar, install them ... [21:14] yeah i have vlc but it doesn't open the video only the sound [21:14] nickUK lets exchange info so we can help each other if one of us finds a solution [21:14] epaphus: from terminal run sudo network-admin if that doesn't run - you need to install it [21:14] !medibuntu | eaglestar [21:14] eaglestar: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [21:14] Jeold - That is my solution is that you run it under root [21:14] if you run it under root it cures the FPS Lag [21:15] nickUK`, not very good tbh, dangerous [21:15] fccf, what is network admin for? [21:15] cabrey, - Yes but you get to play the game [21:15] thanks guys [21:15] hi, i'm trying to install the eee flavor of ubuntu 9.04, Eeebuntu Netbook Remix 3 on my 900A. I've 3 partitions - 4 gig ssd, a 1.5 gig and a 6.5 gig partition on an SD card. In installer, I set the mount point for the 4 gig as / , the 1.5 gig as /var and the 6.5 gig as /home. it fails after the format phase, saying... "The attempt to mount a file system with type ext2 in... partition #1... [21:15] cabrey, - Been searching for a solution on this one for a while and running it under room fixes the problem for me. [21:15] ...(sdc) at /var failed. You may resume partitioning from the partitioning scheme"..i know there is a workaround for this, just can't figure out what. Please help. [21:15] do i have to restart? [21:15] epaphus: that is the application that allows for gui config of network card [21:15] I give up, I'm getting no help.... Time to back up my home directory and reinstall..... [21:15] eaglestar, no [21:16] Joeseph, what is the problem? [21:16] eaglestar, no need to restart after installing those plugins, just keep media players close [21:17] oh ok cool [21:17] how can I edit a text file whit su privileges? === thatdude is now known as thatdude1 [21:18] cabrey: I cannot keep connected to the internet. I can connect to my network about half of the time, and then It only stays open for about 5 seconds. (It often breaks when I try to connect to an external IP) Right now, "bonobo-activati' is eating up about 95% of my CPU also. [21:18] evaluser, gksu gedit /path/to/file [21:18] oi ppl [21:18] Hey guys is there a portable version of firefox for ubuntu? Or how can I run a portable version on a flash drive that does not use the local computers settings/profile and preferably does not write to disk? Thanks [21:18] evaristor, Alt +f2 then type gksu gedit [21:18] evaristor: gksudo gedit /path/to/file [21:18] what is the command line command to find the fastest download server for packages i know how to do it in synaptic just not command line [21:18] nickuk: sudo: nexuiz: command not found [21:19] Joeseph, right click Network Manager > Edit Conecctions [21:19] Joeseph, just wired, yes? [21:19] Ok. Thanks matrixblue and boss_mc [21:19] thatdude1: the portable version of firefox is for windows .. it is not portable from os to os [21:19] Welp, I ordered that Nvidia 7600GT (Asus) [21:19] nickUK`: sudo: nexuiz: command not found [21:19] thatdude: and there is ubuntu portable [21:19] cabrey: Actually, it's via ndiswrapper with a wg111t dongle. It seems to talk to the device alright though. [21:19] $60 on ebay [21:19] lmao dude [21:19] i got this info about ubuntu repositories size... is that correct? (or at least makes sense?) http://pastie.org/502065 [21:20] evaristor: if you're comfortable with command line editors (ed/vim/emacs/nano/etc) you can use sudo [21:20] are you in the folder where the game is installed to? [21:20] Joeseph, so wireless? [21:20] i never would have started dating Locke if he hadn't installed nvidia [21:20] thatdude1: the live cd includes firefox and does not write to disk unless you install [21:20] and i think it might be [21:20] evaristor: gksudo for graphical editors though [21:20] cabrey: Yes. [21:20] sudo ./thegame [21:20] Joeseph, and network manager handles connections? [21:20] locke installed nvidia and it made him have to use a program where his msn came up, which he hadnt used for 2 years, [21:20] and then i saw him online, came over, started dating [21:20] haha [21:21] l [21:21] fccf, does the live cd write ANY data to ANY hard disk or does EVERYTHING truely run from RAM? is there any data whatsoever that is written to a local hard drive? Could i then run the live cd on a pc with all hdds discconected? Thanks [21:21] cabrey: It seems to be, but obviously not very well... :P I dunno if it helps, but when it used to not to, and then just decided to start managing them.... [21:21] if i close the terminal when downloading how do i re unlock the package management [21:21] nickUK`: that didn't fix the problem, i loaded it with sudo and it's still herky-jerky. [21:21] i had to select faster server mit is running really slow today [21:21] Hmm.. strange [21:21] don't know then [21:21] Joeseph, go into Network Manager > Edit Connections then delete ALL entries for wireless, then reboot [21:22] cabrey: Alright. [21:22] brb rebooting [21:22] Does anyone have this problem where full-screen games such as Nexuiz and Alien Arena are all herky-jerky and unplayable? the mouse that is. and it doesn't happen in windows so don't blame it on the graphics card. [21:22] thatdude1: the live cd runs a loop of the cd - or can run entirely in ram -- and does not write to the harddrive / unless there is a swap partition -- or you install it [21:22] !details | jeold [21:22] jeold: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [21:22] Thanks boss_mc. I got it. [21:22] cabrey: Well... I can't seem to do anything right now, that bonobo-activi or whatever is eating my cpu.... I'll restart and do that, then restart again!. [21:22] what details? [21:23] jeold, Ubuntu version, graphics card, etc [21:23] fccf thanks though i dont get what "runs a loop of the cd" means [21:23] exit [21:23] Does anyone have this problem where full-screen games such as Nexuiz and Alien Arena are all herky-jerky and unplayable? the mouse that is. and it doesn't happen in windows so don't blame it on the graphics card. Ubuntu 9.04 Graphics card: irrelvant. [21:24] someone knows the best way to use ATI readeon? which driver? [21:24] jeold, the graphics card is extremely relevant [21:24] jeold, running compiz? [21:24] can i ask a question about kubuntu here [21:24] sil3nt|warri0r, /join #kubuntu [21:24] because its related to my wifi [21:24] cabrey: i dont have the problem on windows though. bluefox83: yes [21:25] jeold, but drivers are half the equation [21:25] thatdude1: the cd is written - it doesn't write to it - you can boot a live cd on a computer with no harddrive - you could also put it on a thumbdrive - and it wouldn't write to it ... as stuff is needed it is pulled off the cd [21:25] jeold, you are having a conflict, the game wants to handle the mouse pointer, and so does compiz, turn off compiz [21:25] hi I am trying to add fonts to wine and i can't find the folder i am supposed to put them in [21:25] hi [21:25] I installed firestarter [21:25] cabrey: umm...... this is no good..... I'm getting a forced check because of a corrupted file on boot up.... shoot.... it booted into a shell! What happened???? [21:25] cluster, .wine/drive_c [21:25] but I do nmap myPi [21:25] jeold, of set compiz to let your game handle the pointer [21:25] and I still get ssh - 22 open [21:25] *or [21:26] cluster: you may want to ask in #winehq [21:26] Joeseph, no that doesn't sound good [21:26] greetings folks. I just upgraded to jaunty, and I'm having serious issues with X crashing, wondering if anybody can point me in the right direction [21:26] cabrey its a nvidia gforce 7300 or something like that. bluefox83: oh wait nevermind. im not running compiz. [21:26] Joeseph, did you hit recovery by accident? [21:26] ?? [21:26] purdyk: you have a graphics card? [21:26] cabrey: No. I did not hit recovery by accident..... What do I do at this shell? [21:26] jeold, and have you installed the gfx drivers? [21:27] p1oooop: i'm using the vga drivers right now as my gpu is intel and its not working at all [21:27] Joeseph, what does the prompt look like? just "#"? [21:27] purdyk: hmm [21:27] however, even with this driver, just running xrandr will crash X [21:27] Joeseph: Sounds like a filesystem error on /. Boot a liveCD -> System -> Administration -> Partition Editor, right click the ubuntu partition and choose check filesystem [21:27] how can I uninstall sshd from ubuntu? [21:27] mib_pc457p, sudo aptitude remove openssh-server [21:27] cabrey: no. im doing that now. [21:27] Any "HOWTO install software through apt-get or synaptic" for beginners? [21:27] purdyk: I guess you'll have to live without graphics drivers [21:28] cabrey: It says root@*computername* Tells me that fsck died with exit status 4. /lib/inti/rw/rootdev: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY. (without -a or -p) [21:28] evaristor: what do you want to install? [21:28] /part [21:28] Joeseph, do you know what filesystem you have? [21:28] evaristor http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download_main.html [21:28] cabrey: Ext4. [21:28] fizzletip, /quit [21:28] Joeseph, how did you get it to use ext4 D; [21:28] Joeseph, oh boy thats not good [21:29] bluefox83, its a part of 9.04 [21:29] !intel > purdyk [21:29] purdyk, please see my private message [21:29] k [21:29] cabrey, i'm installing 9.04 on a machine right now, i didn't see ext4 as an option anywhere D: [21:29] bluefox83, you have to manually set up partitions [21:30] How do I download IceCat? [21:30] bluefox83: I did it wrong, apparently :) ..... ummmm I used cp -a -r on my / to another partition. I found out later that that doesn't always work right..... [21:30] I want to install https://launchpad.net/gm-notify using APP https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#Adding%20a%20PPA%20to%20your%20Ubuntu%20repositories but it says "You can install software in the usual way" [21:30] cabrey, well that sucks D: [21:30] Joeseph, do what geirha said: Joeseph: Sounds like a filesystem error on /. Boot a liveCD -> System -> Administration -> Partition Editor, right click the ubuntu partition and choose check filesystem [21:30] I have no important programs on there or anything... Can I boot into a live shell, save my home directory and then reinstall? [21:30] vigo: do you mean icecast [21:30] Joeseph, bummer D: [21:30] I did something wrong. I can't access Update-manager nor can I access Synaptic [21:30] Joeseph, you can try [21:30] is kn1002 or kn100 here? [21:30] and all I did was to repair with fsck [21:30] cabrey: I'll try that. I'll stick with Ext3 this time too...... hahahahaha [21:30] fccf: No, IceCat, it is the GNU replacement for other stuff. [21:30] kev_zhong, just kn1002 [21:30] yeah, tanks [21:31] had a lot of inode problems [21:31] Thanks Jack_Sparrow . [21:31] np [21:31] anyone wanna help me with that? [21:31] Joeseph: Yes, ext3 is recommended. ext4 isn't 100% stable in jaunty yet. It's mention in the release notes [21:31] bluefox83, cabrey: What command do I use in the live cd to make sure and get all my home folder documents and not run into this problem again? [21:31] !releasenotes [21:31] Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) release notes can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes [21:31] fccf: http://directory.fsf.org/project/gnuzilla/ <<< that one [21:31] Joeseph, I would say copy it to another hdd [21:32] cabrey: With what command? [21:32] guys, how can i install flash for 64 bit, i forgot :D [21:32] !flash64 [21:32] You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava [21:32] cabrey: Will cp -a -r work? [21:32] Joeseph: gksu nautilus, right-click /home and choose to archive it. [21:32] Jack_Sparrow That was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks again. === ursula_ is now known as Ursinha [21:32] thanx jack [21:32] Joeseph, maybe, if you are lucky >.> [21:32] np glad to help [21:32] Joeseph, capital R and you probably need to sudo [21:33] cabrey, can you help me? [21:33] sburwood, yea whats up [21:33] geirha: Is that how I should have Done my root director for upgrading to ext4 also? Not that I plan on doing it again. [21:33] cabrey not in the livecd, should be able to sudo -s and then do whatever [21:33] vigo: that one is not supported by ubuntu - you would have to compile it yourself.. what do you need it for? [21:33] ok how do I get the gpg for http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main, I can see the key, but do not know the command to install it [21:33] CNN DEFACED. LULZ, http://gossip.twilightparadox.com [21:33] bluefox83, either way, he needs superuser privledges [21:33] trying to install pidgin encryption I get [21:33] checking for PIDGIN... configure: error: Package requirements (pidgin) were not met: No package 'pidgin' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PIDGIN_CFLAGS and PIDGIN_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-co [21:33] what can I do [21:34] Joeseph: Did the upgrade to ext4 go wrong so you had to restore from backup? [21:34] cabrey, yeah [21:34] fccf: I like and prefer the non-blobular stuff, /giggles, I just like to learn this stuff. [21:34] cabrey I had inode problems. I did a fsck like I was told to do. Since then, I can't open update-manager, nor synaptic [21:34] Joeseph: You can upgrade to ext4 without formatting ... [21:34] CNN DEFACED. LULZ, http://gossip.twilightparadox.com [21:35] cabrey, I acepted to repair the inode problems during fsck [21:35] vigo: http://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/ you can get binaries from their svn [21:35] sburwood, sounds like the FS wasnt repaired correctly [21:35] hello! I'm trying to play a DVD on my Ubuntu PC. I installed the libdvdread4 and libdvdcss and libdvdcss2 packages. [21:35] geirha: The upgrade to ext4 *seemed* to go fine; I guess it didn't entirely. So you reccomend using nautilus to make an 'archive' of it, and then copy it to a seperate partition? [21:35] checking for PIDGIN... configure: error: Package requirements (pidgin) were not met: No package 'pidgin' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PIDGIN_CFLAGS and PIDGIN_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-co [21:35] !medibuntu | Neremor [21:35] Neremor: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [21:35] fccf: Thank you [21:35] but when i insert the dvd, it is simply not recognized. [21:35] cabrey how can I find out what went wrong? and how to fix it? [21:35] vigo: np [21:35] yes you don't need to tell me about the medibuntu repo [21:35] i have an ISO image, how I can make a physical Hard Drive clone from the ISO? IE I made a backup of my windows computer before my HD crashed as an ISO. Put the new hard drive in my ubuntu comp, want to restore the DIsk from the ISO\ [21:36] sburwood, was the FS in read only when it was repairing it? [21:36] fccf: Yipee! That is the one I was looking for, thank you kindly again. [21:36] i allready did everything i found in the tutorials and wikis i've read to get the dvd working. [21:36] Neremor you may need to set your region code [21:36] Joeseph: That would be the easiest I think. If you want to do it in a terminal, it would be: sudo tar zcvf /path/to/store/homes.tar.gz /home [21:36] evantandersen: dd if=file.iso of=/dev/XXX [21:36] i did this allready [21:36] jim____ k thx [21:36] cabrey, FS = file system? [21:36] sburwood, yes [21:36] evantandersen: be careful here. [21:37] sburwood, reboot using the recovery option [21:37] i know === andrew_ is now known as Od2 [21:37] geirha: Thanks. I'll do that... If I copy it to a seperate partition, I can tell Ubuntu to use that partition as home and not lose anything, correct? [21:37] evantandersen: read about dd a bit first and make sure you're writing to the correct device by checking `fdisk -l` output. [21:37] the last time i tried it, the dvd was recognized and i was able to play the first 15 seconds, but afterwards, the dvd stopped working again and isn't recognized every time I insert it into the tray... [21:37] Joeseph yes [21:37] !home [21:37] Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome [21:37] Joeseph: Have you allready made a partition where you want to put /home? [21:37] What is a VoIP server for? [21:37] geirha: Yes I have, it's just.. not partitioned or there yet. [21:37] cabrey, the system did an automatic check on the system, found problems on root that it couldn't repair itself, and asked for a manual fsck [21:38] bullgard4, Voice over IP [21:38] cabrey, I did a manual fsck [21:38] Neremor: autoplay may be taking control of the drive - consider disableing it [21:38] ok, where can i do this? [21:38] Neremor, might seem silly but did you try a different dvd [21:38] sburwood, it sounds like it exited with status 4, means it couldn't repair something [21:38] cabrey: Was that all you could contribute to answer this question? [21:38] sburwood It may have been able to fix the file system but not reapir the files themselves [21:38] Joeseph: Ok, well you can do that from the liveCD, then I'd recommend using rsync rather than cp. It will allow you to resume as well: rsync -av /home /media/disk [21:38] cabrey, so I should reboot and use recovery ... and do another fsck? [21:39] bullgard4, basically phone using the internet [21:39] yes I have this problems since I'm using Ubuntu, that a dvd is only working every 20th time... [21:39] normal dvds and cds are working perfectly all right. [21:39] sburwood, yea and hopefully it'll work otherwise fs/files are corrupted [21:39] also music and game cds... [21:39] cabrey: No. [21:39] only movie dvd's arent recognized [21:39] oops, cabrey, will try [21:39] thx ... brb? [21:39] #jakarta [21:40] bullgard4, I'm sorry, what? [21:40] there's alot of traffic in here [21:40] Neremor Have you installed the lib..dvdcs2 ? [21:40] jim____ thanks its working now :) looked up my partitions with Gparted [21:40] Neremor, try using VLC and install ubuntu-restricted-extras [21:40] p1oooop, seems some people are just a tad impatient [21:40] !medibuntu [21:40] medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [21:40] jim____ it was /dev/sdb === ceil_ is now known as ceil420 [21:40] Anyone familiar with tint2 and might point me in the direction of support irc channel for it? [21:40] geirha: I thought I was using nautilus's archiving tool? What's the rsync for? oh... and what do you mean by resume? [21:40] does 32 bit flash work in 64 bit ubuntu [21:40] cabrey: I'd like to get a more precise answer. [21:40] !irc > JohnWittle [21:40] JohnWittle, please see my private message [21:40] Neremor: you need to install libdvdcss4 [21:40] kn1002 with nswrapper === anthony is now known as Guest56719 [21:41] !flash64 [21:41] You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava === Guest56719 is now known as anthonyplay [21:41] kn1002, yes, but there is a 64 bit flash alpha [21:41] thanks [21:41] kn1002 but there is 64 bit flash [21:41] cabrey link? [21:41] kn1002, see above [21:41] i use 64 bit flash alpha, haven't had a problem yet :) [21:41] Neremor: this is because movie DVDs are "encrypted" [21:41] Joeseph: Well, if you want to copy /home to an external drive in order to reinstall, then copy it back, I'd recommend archiving it. [21:41] bullgard4, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VoIP [21:41] bullgard4, how's that? [21:41] Hm [21:42] Anyone running tint2? [21:42] Neremor See this page.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu [21:42] nobody [21:42] Neremor: http://www.medibuntu.org/ [21:42] Joeseph: Since you want to put /home on a separate partition, copying /home to that partition, then tell the installer to use it as /home is a good option. [21:42] could you please stop sending me links to the wiki frontpage?! [21:42] JohnWittle: this is the ubuntu support channel - it can get a little crazy in here don't feel ignored [21:42] Jack_Sparrow: woops :D [21:42] i allready installed the libdvdcss2 package [21:42] geirha: I plan on leaving it in the other partition So I can have a separate home partition, so i won't have to copy it back. [21:42] Neremor that page will help you add the repo and the key and everything else needed for your issue [21:42] !patience | JohnWittle [21:42] fccf: I do not feel ignored. I asked a completely different question :D [21:42] JohnWittle: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience [21:43] Neremor: okay then, not sure about what your problem is then... [21:43] geirha: Sorry for the confusion, and cabrey and geirha: thanks for the help. [21:43] Joeseph: rsync -av should do the same as cp -a -r, but if you abort the rsync command, you can simply run the same command again, and it will continue where it left off [21:43] the dvd isn't recognized [21:43] Anyone know what section of the xorg.conf file that I should add (Option "TripleBuffer" "true")? [21:43] Neremor, which player are you using? And what error messages if any do you get? [21:43] Joeseph, np hope everything works out [21:43] Neremor: not recognized? hmm [21:43] no player [21:43] Neremor Go through that page. it WILL fix your problem [21:43] the dvd is simply not recognized by my OS [21:43] Neremor: sudo apt-get install xine-ui [21:43] cabrey: This article does not even mention 'VoIP server'. [21:43] anyone know if system76.com's computers are any good? they seem pricey and dont tell you the name brand of things, other than the ATI video card [21:43] let me try to figure this out, I thank you kindly for the help. [21:43] !laptop [21:43] Laptop support information can be found on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops - http://www.linux-laptop.net/ - http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam - http://tuxmobil.org [21:44] Neremor: either that or it is one of those newer DVDs [21:44] bullgard4, VoIP is a generic term [21:44] hskill use something more reputable [21:44] Neremor, you mean that ubuntu doesn't recognize that a DVD is inserted? [21:44] bullgard4: a VoIP server is, as cabrey said, a server used for providing VoIP services to clients [21:44] yes. [21:44] like http://ebuyer.com/ or (google) arianet [21:44] kn1002 like what? [21:44] bullgard4, there is skype, nortel, cisco, all have servers [21:44] I hate to be that guy, but could someone please take a look at this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1179281 This has been holding me back for days and is really frustrating. Thanks so much!! [21:44] Neremor what version/flavor of ubuntu [21:45] Kubuntu 9.04 [21:45] p-kaines Please post a description when posting links to your problem [21:45] Neremor and exactly how did you add the dvdcs2 [21:45] It's about creating sockets with ports on my linuxbox [21:45] p-kaines: there is a firewall [21:45] p-kaines, you might want to see a programming channel [21:45] ubuntu has a firewall [21:45] p-kaines, like #java or something [21:45] but no idea if thats your problem [21:45] !firewall [21:45] Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist [21:46] whatever your problem is, #subject it [21:46] ah come on! Why isn't this computer booting into a live cd!? Oh well.. I'll go for the live usb... faster that way anyway. [21:46] thank you so much! I'll read all about that. I've been stuck here for a while, so thanks so much for your attention! :) [21:46] Joeseph To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F4 and select safe graphics mode then press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash use the noapic acpi=off options before the "--" [21:46] first i tried it with "sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh"... Then i tried "apt-get install libdvdcss2" [21:47] i think they are not the problem, because the dvd playes a few seconds every 20th time i insert the disc. [21:47] Neremor did you ever add the medibuntu repo as the page says to do [21:47] i think it's a problem with the recognition by the OS === Carlos is now known as Guest28801 [21:47] Hey guys, sorry this isn't exactly about Ubuntu, but my friend wants to set up a recording studio for his band, and tbh I know very little about digital audio recording. Is there anywhere I could go to learn more about it? [21:47] lstarnes: What services does a VoIP server provide to me as a client? (I am asking because I am going to change from TeamSpeak to Ekiga.) [21:47] p-kaines: I'm a bit rusty on java, but Socket is the clientside connection. You aren't binding the port. I believe the class you want is ServerSocket or something [21:47] !irc > Apollo2366 [21:48] Apollo2366, please see my private message [21:48] bullgard4: exactly what it says: Voice over Internet Protocol [21:48] i think i wouldn't be able to install these packages if i did not activate the medibunto repo in the sources.lst [21:48] Neremor Pastebin your sources list to be sure [21:48] lstarnes: A protocol is not provided. A protocol is used to send messages. [21:48] bullgard4: unless you're refering to a different definition of 'services' === cabrey_ is now known as cabrey [21:49] I installed libdvdcss2 for sure. [21:49] Neremor, how many different dvd movies have you tried and they all play for 20 seconds or so [21:49] ok, I'll try that too [21:49] Neremor Which version and where you got it will greatly determine how well it all wortks [21:49] no the problem that they play only for 20 seconds was only happening on the last try.

I just got here === cipherz_ is now known as cipherz [21:50] Hm... It seems as if my filesystem has exploded. Good thing I have a backup. [21:50] i have to try many times to make Kubuntu recognize the dvd. if kubuntu did this, i'm also able to play the DVD. [21:50] Hi how do I do to boot with not startx [21:50] Not going to ext4 again anytime soon... [21:50] I'm trying something new... I'll get back to you [21:50] again, i think it's a problem with the regonition of the dvd, not with css [21:50] Joeseph: lol, I've been on it and it works great, but apparently not for you === SCaryMonster is now known as Aurum [21:51] Neremor We understand what YOU think it is, try working with people and answering the questions or doing the things we tell or suggest [21:51] cabrey: My laptop runs it just fine.... It's just that now my root folder is now just a lost and found folder. [21:52] Joeseph: yes, it does sound like your FS asploded [21:52] cabrey: LMAO [21:52] p1oooop What the language please [21:52] Can anyone help me install firefox 2 on ubuntu?

[21:54] php6: I think imma go upgrade [21:54] any reason 8.10 and jaunty wont use the video drivers from hardy. only version that works on my old dell [21:54] I dont mean to sound dense but I just installed webmin... how do I actually launch webmin?? [21:54] bullgard4: VoIP isn't a protocol. It is a term that refers to the sending of voice over networks that use the internet protocol, so a VoIP server provides voice services over the internet to clients [21:54] fccf sorry, could you help me do that? [21:54] p1oooop: if all php6 can say is Hello World - i don't want it [21:54] Roasted BAd idea [21:54] !webmin [21:54] webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. [21:54] aw, youre kidding me [21:54] jack have you used ebox? [21:54] guys, is there any app that would change my wallpaper, for example, every 5 minutes? same type of application in mac os? [21:54] geirha, that was it! Thanks so much-- I can finally move forward on this project now.... [21:54] Cabrey No luck [21:54] fccf: LMBO [21:55] is there any way to drag and drop multiple files? [21:55] Roasted Please drop the commentary. Webmin is NOT supported. [21:55] Hmmm.... now how do I copy my home directory..... Will it be a problem if I put my ubuntu install starting at a partition that starts around Gigabyte 100? I had one bios that could not boot ubuntu cause it was paste the 32 gig mark... will that be a problem on newerish hardware?

[21:55] php6: ahh, I see [21:55] just wait :) [21:55] !ebox [21:55] p-kaines: Excellent :) [21:55] Joeseph, please see my private message [21:55] ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox [21:56] hey thanks - doesnt answer my question I have yet to ask though. [21:56] sup? [21:56] I had a simple question I was just about to ask, Jack. [21:56] lstarnes: I agree with you. And now please tell me what services does a VoIP server provide to me as a client? (I am asking because I am going to change from TeamSpeak to Ekiga.) [21:56] bullgard4: what do you mean by 'services'? [21:57] hi all. In VirtualBox, how do I change the right-ctl key to be something else? I need that key for IBM Client Access's keyboard. [21:57] what's a PCI or PCIe wireless card that supports ubuntu?

[21:58] bullgard4: it partly depends on the VoIP server, but most allow different users to call each other over the internet and many also allow users to call users who use real telephone networks === cryptide_store is now known as cryptide [21:58] !pm > sburwood === cabrey_ is now known as cabrey [21:59] I'm sorry [21:59] I just used the bot :D bots are fun [21:59] and that would be !botabuse [21:59] !thanks | p1oooop [21:59] p1oooop: You're welcome!

[22:28] moin [22:29] how can watch the live tv please help me [22:29] buttons840, X11 is your gui. Forwarding it means you are able to run a GUI program on the server (like firefox for example) and see it on the client through SSH [22:29] datta Do you mean sites like hulu [22:29] heh [22:29] hrm [22:29] ed_debian, does it help security to disable it? [22:29] no it's a local tv try it here: http://www.bddot.com/live-tv-channel/atn-bangla.html [22:30] buttons840, Not to my knowledge [22:30] buttons840, X11 forwarding impresses the shit outta people BTW [22:30] buttons840: if you have X11 installed on the computer you connect to, and a fast connection, X11 forwarding lets you run GUI apps remotely [22:30] buttons840: with X forwarding you can start an X prog on the remote machine and have it display on your local machine, as for the suggestion to turn it off: I (nearly) alays turn off thing I don't need [22:30] ed_debian: lol, so true [22:31] Hello!

So the best alternative would be I'll keep a user with admin privil. for myself and sell them with admin privl. what you say [22:49] harpreet_: if you are selling systems, why are putting on extra restrictions? The default setup is still much more safe than xp et al. [22:49] jeold: not sure, but a few people get issues with Flash on 64bit [22:49] harpreet_ yes [22:49] harpreet_: The disabling part, that is not in sync with the FSF or GNU ore OSFG stuff, but we live in a capitalist thing, so disable anything you want. ...this should really be taken to #off-topic [22:50] Jack_Sparrow: I'm in /media/disk-1 in root, and gksu nautlius sees that only 1.3 gigs of space is left. However, it is showing no folders. === odder_ is now known as odder [22:50] if i buy a dell computer that comes with windows vista, it won't give me any problems tryin to install linux right? i've heard of microsoft tryin to do somethin to the hardware so you cant install linux. is that true? or should i only buy from dell if it comes with linux? [22:50] buttons840: or, what you can do is use the "Connect to Server..." under Places on your local system to mount your remote system in nautilus, and then use local applications to edit text files [22:50] i know a little about vim, but installing vim on ubuntu server will also require me to install gnome, is this correct? [22:50] please help, can't connect to kad with amule [22:50] buttons840, no [22:50] buttons840: lol, no [22:50] hskill: yeah I heard about that hardware thing to [22:50] Helo. i'd liek some help installin Ubuntu. Half wai thru teh installatien, i get a eror mesage tellin me: "desk spase ful." This eror mesage does not make sense two me, becauze i have an 1 TB hard drive, ande i do not think taht this should hapen. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanx in advence. [22:50] buttons840, vi[m] is completely console based [22:50] Jack_Sparrow: Thank you one more question, how does freedomfromvirus sound? will this click window fans or no, [22:50] ic [22:50] Joeseph That isnt good. [22:51] buttons840: vim is super-lightweight and is already probably on your server right now [22:51] will it allow me to click with the mouse [22:51] ? [22:51] hskill: contact me i'll build one for you, which will work right out of box [22:51] harpreet_ Please try the offtopic channel [22:51] kazagistar, the default is tiny vim which sucks [22:51] Jack_Sparrow: where is it [22:51] buttons840, no, the console is command line [22:51] Jack_Sparrow: Hahaha... Nope... I know I could use dd to copy the exact bytes to another partition, but I don't know what I would do with that... [22:51] !ot [22:51] ic, vim is similar to nano, right? i've used nano already [22:51] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [22:52] buttons840: vim is much more advance w/ learning curve [22:52] buttons840, there is a learning curve to use vim [22:52] hskill: maybe this article is rather true these days in some cases http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/can-you-trust.html [22:52] buttons840: its like nano in the same way open office is like notepad.txt [22:52] please help, can't connect to kad with amule [22:52] Joeseph That would let you work on a copy and not the master. It is common practice to do that. How much do you need the data that was there [22:52] hskill: anyway if it's a Dell computer it probably works pretty well with Linux [22:52] hskill: by the way if you buy a computer after 1st July your meant to be entitled to a free upgrade to Windows 7 [22:52] hskill: I read before [22:52] lol, kazagistar ic [22:52] hskill: hp works but make sure no intel chipset, [22:53] Is ubuntu compatible with fedora rpm's ? Say I need xyz program and there's an rpm, can I just d/l it and run it or does stuff have to be something special? I've never used a non-redhat/fedora/centos distro. [22:53] Bubba no [22:53] Bubba, see !alien [22:53] Bubba: well there's alien [22:53] !alien [22:53] RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) [22:53] buttons840: vim and emacs have incredible features, and many programmers prefer them to any sort of graphical clicky program [22:53] Bubba and alien seldom works and worse yet can really mess things up [22:53] well it is time I take a little break [22:53] kazagistar, emacs is more like an OS :P [22:53] which is better, vim or emacs?

[23:00] Joeseph: not entirely, I just noticed that discrepency, perhaps bring me up to speed please. [23:00] hello [23:00] Joeseph I would get the livecd of gparted and look it over with that. It is about a 50 meg dl of an iso [23:00] hi [23:01] how do I disable the update manager from popping up like clippy?

[23:01] I installed the Intrepid i386 live CD to a USB disc, threw it in a little HP Laptop, and when I try to boot or install, I get busybox. I can't seem to find an answer on google or the forums. Anybody have a good lead? [23:02] asi que si [23:02] cabrey: I'd rather open it manually whenever I see fit. [23:02] Jeruvy: Lost the backup of a broken ext4 when I tried to reformat the broken one, it came back, but with no folders, now I'm trying to reformat the one with no folders, but it won't let me. [23:02] Appiah: Looks as you want to activate Twinview permanently. Use the button 'Save to X Configuration File' in nvidia-settings [23:02] ramiro_, System > Administration > Software Sources [23:02] tried that minimec [23:02] Jack_Sparrow: I'll probably try that later today If I can't get anything else to work. [23:02] didnt work [23:02] !dd_rescue [23:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about dd_rescue [23:03] cabrey: thanks. [23:03] Joeseph: I'd do what Jack_Sparrow suggested, that will allow you to modify the disks without them being mounted. [23:03] now how do I find out which v4l2 module my camera is running under? lsmod doesn't show gspca_xxxx or anything. [23:04] Intrepid LiveCD takes me to Busybox. Anybody know about this issue?\ [23:04] Appiah: you can get the manual for dd by typing man db into a terminal [23:04] Jeruvy: Alright. I'll probably do that. I might try some dd_rescue stuff later.... But for now.... I've messed up my computer enough for today. :) [23:04] Have a look at my xorg.conf.

I can't find where to configure my mouse so, when I hover over a window, it'll change focus... looked for it in System->Preferences->Mouse but found nothing...

[23:39] Cosmic_Karma: us the control key [23:39] been at this for almost an hour now [23:39] use [23:39] Cosmic_Karma, ctrl+click on the specific photos [23:39] Cosmic_Karma: hold ctrl and click on several files [23:39] fccf, im on intrepid [23:39] All I want it my two monitors to switch places and use the res I want when starting up [23:39] !intrepid [23:39] Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) was the ninth release of Ubuntu.

[23:42] aw shift works if i hold it and click [23:42] Appiah: that is strange. if youstart nvidia settings with 'sudo', the software should have write access to /etc/xorg.conf ... [23:42] Flannel, http://nopaste.info/241fe368a5.html [23:43] Hey guys how can i disable things like tor or privoxy and things in init.d to NOT run automatically at login or boot? Thanks [23:43] Flannel, is that ok? [23:43] are there nvidia drivers for jaunty? im using hardy cuz i couldn't get 8.1 to run [23:43] thatdude1: sudo update-rc.d -f tor remove [23:43] !tor | thatdude1 [23:43] thatdude1: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks [23:43] fx3: right, do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to get rid of that. Then once you've done that (and rebooted, so the new kernel is in use) follow the instructions on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JauntyUpgrades [23:44] hello can somebody help me about noapic ? [23:44] nopaic does not works to me [23:44] noapic [23:44] lstarnes, is there a way i can control all startup scripts? [23:44] Flannel, it wont install me X will it? [23:44] thatdude1: it depends on what about them you want to control [23:45] fx3: Nope. specifically, this stuff is what you'll use: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JauntyUpgrades#Network%20Upgrade%20for%20Ubuntu%20Servers%20(Recommended) [23:45] must be something wrong here in general [23:45] lstarnes i want to control what scripts run at boot/login and which ones dont [23:45] stuff thats in init.d for example [23:45] anyone familiar with alsa plugins [23:45] thatdude1: update-rc.d is one of them [23:45] tried to launch wc3 in wine now , screen just go black [23:45] thatdude1, try system | admin | services [23:45] mrwes, thanks but tor wont showup there.. [23:45] thatdude1: things in init --> update-rc.d or rcconf or bum [23:45] J1982: have you tried acpi=off [23:45] i love everyone here thanks for everything [23:46] Flannel, ahhh, thanks, i think i missed the section. There should always be sections on how to do things from cli [23:46] thatdude1: init.d isn't actually used for determining what runs. rc[0-6].d do [23:46] fx3: There generally are!

[23:47] J1982: what kind of machine are you running this on = what error do you get if you don't pass noapic [23:47] thatdude1: rc0.d and rc1.d control what gets stopped or started on shutting down or rebooting, rc1.d before other runlevels, and rc2.d through rc5.d control what gets run at the multi-user runlevels. 2 is the default in ubuntu [23:48] Hi, I'm trying to simulate a block device (sda etc) for testing. How do I create such a faux device in /dev? [23:48] LSTARNES thanks, is there anyway i can every script that is loaded at boot? [23:48] HI [23:48] since the advent of notify-osd do windows no longer flash their urgency in the gnome window list?

[23:49] lstarnes i forgot the word "see/view", haha didnt mean to use that old meme [23:49] I built some kernel modules and was able to load them. on reboot they are no longer loaded. how do I make them persistent?
