| ibou | How to program a fsck on reboot ? | 00:01 |
| xaashi | lfaraone: i'm using a plain vanila kernel from kernel.org .. stripped down, will update-initramfs still work? | 00:01 |
| Flannel | ibou: sudo touch /forcefsck | 00:01 |
| proq | lfaraone_: no, he already showed that he had adobe flash installed | 00:02 |
| lfaraone_ | ibou: i'd reboot into recovery mode and do it from there. or what Flannel said. | 00:02 |
| Broken-flash | sudo apt-get install swfdec-mozilla flashplugin-nonfree --reinstall | 00:02 |

| Flannel | Just sit tight people. | 00:03 |
| lfaraone_ | re whoever was asking about the custom kernel, it would work. | 00:05 |
| lfaraone_ | As long as you specify the kernel version on the command line. | 00:05 |
| fccf | wow... thats a netsplit | 00:06 |
| lstarnes | fccf: it isn't | 00:07 |
| cooldudedesktop | it was a botnet | 00:07 |
| lfaraone_ | fccf: it's someone storming the network.l | 00:07 |
| Jeruvy | just a tiny one :) | 00:07 |
| ewook | !gnome | 00:07 |
| ubottu | GNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu. To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal. | 00:07 |
| lfaraone_ | fccf: which has the way of kicking off lamer clients, such as my own. | 00:07 |
| fx3 | lfaraone_, mine too, xchat :( | 00:07 |
| s|k | lfaraone_ what would a client have to do to not get kicked? | 00:08 |
| s|k | I'm working on one | 00:08 |
| codeamuk | im using weechat and didnt get kikcked | 00:08 |
| lfaraone_ | s|k: no idea, but my irssi is never kicked off. | 00:08 |
| lfaraone_ | s|k: whereas my mibbit session, where I am currently, did. | 00:08 |
| fccf | pidgin stays connected here | 00:09 |
| s|k | I got kicked too | 00:09 |
| s|k | not sure why | 00:09 |
| s|k | I made this irc client | 00:09 |
| s|k | excess flood | 00:09 |
| xaashi | lfaraone: sorry did you answer me, i lost connect for a moment | 00:09 |
| lstarnes | s|k: make sure it spaces out ctcp replies | 00:09 |
| s|k | I don't reply to ctcp yet | 00:09 |
| lstarnes | oh | 00:09 |
| s|k | that's a good point though | 00:09 |
| lfaraone_ | xaashi: remind me, was your question on custom kernels? | 00:09 |
| Jeruvy | back to work. :P | 00:10 |
| xaashi | creating intrd.img for stripped down vanilla kernel | 00:10 |
| ftw | is irssi a lamer client? | 00:10 |
| lfaraone_ | fno: Not really. | 00:10 |
| lfaraone_ | * ftw | 00:10 |
| xaashi | lfaraone does update-intr.. work on that | 00:10 |
| ftw | I didn't get kicked--just saw tons of messages | 00:10 |
| lstarnes | ftw: no | 00:11 |
| lfaraone_ | xaashi: I see. Yes, it does, as long as you specif. the version according to the man page | 00:11 |
| xaashi | lfaraone: cool thank you man | 00:11 |
| adelie42 | What is the prefered on screen keyboard for touchscreens/tablet pc? | 00:13 |
| xaashi | lfaraone: incidentally if you dont use update-initramfs, what are the othr methods | 00:13 |
| fccf | !best | adelie42 | 00:14 |
| ubottu | adelie42: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 00:14 |
| lfaraone_ | xaashi: no idewa. | 00:15 |
| fccf | adelie42: that said: gok is an onscreen kb for Gnome | 00:15 |
| === R_Rios is now known as o_a | ||
| adelie42 | fccf: thank you | 00:15 |
| xaashi | lfaraone: thanks anyhow | 00:17 |
| minimec | adelie42: for small screens there is the matchbox keyboard, but this is part of the matchbox gpe environment I think. Don't know if you can use it as a standalone app. | 00:17 |
| xemacs4321 | icewm , has full keyboard support i have read | 00:18 |
| Kaie | hello. im looking for tips on getting rid of stuff on my ubuntu system which i dont use... such as bluez and other stuff. | 00:21 |
| Kaie | i once tried getting rid of it and some other default apps | 00:21 |
| needhelp1 | how do i run a scrip.. if its called whatever.sh | 00:21 |
| Kaie | but it totally messed up my system. and i had to restore them. any tuturials anyone know about? | 00:21 |
| * cyphase just got his jaunty cds | 00:21 | |
| needhelp1 | how do i run the script? i tried in terminal install whatever.sh | 00:21 |
| needhelp1 | didnt work | 00:21 |
| boss_mc | needhelp1: make sure it is set to be executable (in properties, or using chmod) then type ./whatever.sh in terminal | 00:22 |
| boss_mc | needhelp1: or click on the icon in nautilus | 00:22 |
| boss_mc | needhelp1: or /full/path/to/script/whatever.sh in terminal will work | 00:22 |
| cyphase | ooh, sexy :P (the jaunty sleeves/cds) | 00:23 |
| needhelp1 | boss_mc: bash: ./whatever.sh: No such file or directory | 00:23 |
| boss_mc | needhelp1: you have to navigate to the directory containing it | 00:23 |
| fccf | cyphase: what color are they? | 00:23 |
| needhelp1 | im in the active DR | 00:23 |
| boss_mc | needhelp1: if you do ls -l whatever.sh, does it have 'x' in the permissions? | 00:24 |
| mrwes | rutrow! | 00:24 |
| mrwes | wow | 00:24 |
| mrwes | lfaraone, nod...uh huh.... excessive floods :) | 00:24 |

| mrwes | fx3, I'm running xchat too | 00:24 |
| mrwes | wow...non stop aye? | 00:24 |
| mrwes | needhelp1, ./whatever.sh | 00:24 |
| mrwes | heh...boss_mc | 00:24 |
| fccf | cyphase: nice | 00:25 |
| boss_mc | mrwes: did you just get kicked? | 00:25 |
| Vlet | I just installed vnc server on a (previously) gui-less server w/ fluxbox and xdm. All works well, but I can't figure out where the resolution (currently 800x600) is set. Any ideas? | 00:25 |
| fccf | !enter | mrwes | 00:25 |
| ubottu | mrwes: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 00:25 |
| cyphase | fccf: no people on it either.. just a simple "ubuntu 9.04, desktop edition" | 00:25 |
| cyphase | fccf: i'll take a pic | 00:25 |
| mrwes | weird | 00:26 |
| boss_mc | needhelp1: did you get it to work? | 00:26 |
| Flannel | fccf, cyphase: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2478/3558882367_a520166be0.jpg also, take this to #ubuntu-offtopic :) | 00:26 |
| mrwes | boss_mc, yah, what was that about? | 00:26 |
| boss_mc | mrwes: you did type 7 lines in quick suscession, floodbot thought you were flooding | 00:27 |
| needhelp1 | boss_mc: one sec | 00:27 |
| boss_mc | mrwes: weird that you didn't get a warning first though... | 00:27 |
| unitxt | I like the feature of how irssi lets you go "Fullscreen(F11)" to switch windows. You simply use 'Alt-1...etc...' to switch between channels. Can you something similiar with Xterm? The only way I know how to switch between windows is to open a new tab, but that makes it where you still have the tabs present at the top of the screen. I'd like as much 'real estate' as possible... | 00:27 |
| mrwes | boss_mc, not from this end I didn't | 00:27 |
| boss_mc | mrwes: didn't what? | 00:27 |
| minimec | Vlet: Try to configure /etc/xorg.conf on the VNC server. | 00:28 |
| mrwes | boss_mc, forget it | 00:28 |
| boss_mc | done | 00:28 |
| Ron586 | is there a way to stop the windows from fading in and out when I open or close them? | 00:28 |
| boss_mc | Ron586: install compizconfig-settings-manager and change the settings of the animation plugin | 00:29 |
| Vlet | minimec: well, the funny thing is that xorg.conf is empty right now (I didn't think xorg would run without a config file) so it makes me think there is an alt config somewhere I can't find. | 00:29 |
| Apollo2366 | Hey I just tried compiling Hello.cpp with the GCC but I don't think I have something configured correctly | 00:30 |
| Apollo2366 | Here's the terminal: eric@livingroom2:~/My Projects/cpp/src$ gcc -o ..\bin\hello Hello.cpp | 00:30 |
| Apollo2366 | /tmp/ccyoEXb8.o: In function `main': | 00:30 |

| cabrey | another know whats up with freenode? | 00:31 |
| spc | hi why kubuntu is downloading my network stored videos before playing them with vlc...? ubuntu dont do that.can i disable that?thanks | 00:32 |
| media` | it's an international terrorist attack | 00:32 |
| media` | all you base are belong to us | 00:32 |
| cabrey | ahh yes because those happen all the time | 00:32 |
| Apollo2366 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/189323/ this is the terminal command and output | 00:32 |
| Jeruvy | !ot | media` funny but... | 00:33 |
| ubottu | media` funny but...: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 00:33 |
| minimec | Vlet: the empty xorg.conf is the result of the new xserver 1.6 architecture. ;) Glad you found the solution... | 00:33 |
| fccf | Apollo2366: you might ask in #gcc or #c++ | 00:33 |
| boss_mc | Apollo2366: have you got libstdc++ installed? | 00:33 |
| Apollo2366 | boss_mc, probably not, Synaptic right? | 00:34 |
| boss_mc | Apollo2366: it's cos you're building with gcc when you're using c++ code | 00:34 |
| boss_mc | Apollo2366: use g++ | 00:34 |
| needhelp1 | boss_mc: ./install.sh: line 8: cmake: command not found | 00:34 |
| boss_mc | !info cmake | needhelp1 | 00:34 |
| ubottu | needhelp1: cmake (source: cmake): A cross-platform, open-source make system. In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.2-1ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 7695 kB, installed size 19428 kB | 00:34 |
| needhelp1 | make: *** No rule to make target `clean'. Stop.7:34 PMmake: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 00:34 |
| needhelp1 | what does that mean boss_mc | 00:35 |
| boss_mc | needhelp1: you havn't got cmake installed | 00:35 |
| Jeruvy | needhelp1: did you ./configure first? | 00:35 |
| Apollo2366 | boss_mc, Do I have to install it? Is the terminal command any different? | 00:35 |
| boss_mc | Apollo2366: if you installed build-essential then you have it | 00:35 |
| boss_mc | Apollo2366: the syntax is basically the same (it's exactly the same for your purposes) | 00:35 |
| Apollo2366 | So g++ -o Hello Hello.cpp ? | 00:36 |
| boss_mc | Apollo2366: yep | 00:36 |
| mrwes | damn...Jaunty is so efficient | 00:36 |
| Apollo2366 | mkay thanks | 00:36 |
| needhelp1 | ./configure no such file | 00:36 |
| needhelp1 | boss_mc: ./configure no such file | 00:36 |
| boss_mc | needhelp1: you need to install cmake (sudo apt-get install cmake) | 00:37 |
| buttons840 | How can I modify the ls command to show only folders or directories? | 00:38 |
| needhelp1 | that worked boss_mc | 00:38 |
| needhelp1 | thanks | 00:38 |
| boss_mc | buttons840: ls -d | 00:38 |
| buttons840 | hmm | 00:38 |
| buttons840 | that only shows . | 00:38 |
| Jeruvy | I noticed that too, but it is correct syntax. Try --directory | 00:39 |
| buttons840 | for example ls -d / returns "." | 00:39 |
| Trixar_za | I'm probably going to ask a newbie question right now, but how do I exit man without having to type Ctrl+Z and then having to kill the process? | 00:39 |
| buttons840 | just a period | 00:39 |
| Cass | buttons840: ls -ld * |grep ^d | 00:39 |
| boss_mc | buttons840: or try ls -l | grep ^d | 00:39 |
| boss_mc | JINX | 00:40 |
| Cass | lol | 00:40 |
| fccf | Trixar_za: Q | 00:40 |
| boss_mc | oh, if only the floodbots played jinx, that would be sweet | 00:40 |
| * Trixar_za slaps forehead | 00:40 | |
| Trixar_za | it's always that simple :| | 00:40 |
| Jeruvy | buttons840: its a bug, ls man page specifys -d; --directory for directory entries. | 00:40 |
| buttons840 | wow, you serious, how long will it take to fix this bug? | 00:41 |
| fccf | Trixar_za: not always that simple | 00:41 |
| buttons840 | i don't know if i believe that, because i was using a linux distro that is years old the other day, and ls -d listed onlya period, just the same | 00:41 |
| spinx8565 | Hello, I'm running the live-cd right now to test out Jaunty on my laptop. I have a question... | 00:41 |
| boss_mc | Trixar_za: canonical example, it's almost impossible to quit vim the first time you run it... | 00:42 |
| andruk | !ask | 00:42 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 00:42 |
| Trixar_za | with me it normally is. I always look for the hard way to do things and it never occurs to me that the answer is very simple | 00:42 |
| boss_mc | !ask | spinx8565 | 00:42 |
| ubottu | spinx8565: please see above | 00:42 |
| spinx8565 | Sorry-- | 00:42 |
| Jeruvy | buttons840: I'd say its a bug | 00:42 |
| Trixar_za | isn't it esc, q? | 00:42 |
| boss_mc | Trixar_za: <esc>:q | 00:42 |
| boss_mc | ...obv... | 00:42 |
| andruk | anybody know of any kdevelop4 beta 3 packages out for ubuntu yet? | 00:43 |
| mdg | Trixar_za: Its a colon q ":q" | 00:43 |
| cabrey | andruk, look in Add & Remove... | 00:43 |
| spc | so any help with kubuntu copying files before playing a movie? | 00:43 |
| fccf | mdg: thats for vi - Trixar_za is in man | 00:44 |
| fccf | Trixar_za: h is also help in man | 00:44 |
| cabrey | spc, /join #kubuntu | 00:44 |
| spc | cabrey i asked. | 00:44 |
| wachunei | hi guys, black macbook video issue, running 9.04 over parallels, which one is the driver i should install to get compiz working? | 00:44 |
| mdg | fccf: oh. sorry | 00:44 |
| boss_mc | fccf: we were discussing non-obvious quitting commands | 00:44 |
| Jeruvy | buttons840: but apparently it isn't. Good to know. | 00:45 |
| IndyGunFreak | wachunei: what video device does the mac have? | 00:45 |
| wachunei | 945gm intel integrates | 00:45 |
| Cass | wachunei: compiz on parallels probably wont wont work, no 3d accel i dont think | 00:45 |
| spinx8565 | Question about sound card. I'm running 9.04. The maximum volume from my internal speakers is very low, and when the mixer is set halfway, it is as if it were at 0%. What can I do? | 00:45 |
| andruk | cabrey: i appreciate the advice, but i dont think the kdevelop in add/remove is beta 3. | 00:45 |
| wachunei | Cass: it does 3d accel | 00:45 |
| Cass | for linux ? | 00:45 |
| wachunei | for sure | 00:46 |
| Apollo2366 | boss_mc: This might seem stupid, but when I compile with g++, how do I specify a seperate directory for the output file? Because I did g++ -o ..\bin\Hello Hello.cpp and it just made it a hidden file named ..binHello in the src directory. | 00:46 |
| boss_mc | Apollo2366: linux uses / where windows uses \ | 00:46 |
| Cass | wac wow .. last i heard for win only, thats all vmware does | 00:46 |
| Apollo2366 | boss_mc: OH ok thanks | 00:46 |
| boss_mc | Apollo2366: switch your slashes (\ is for escape codes which is why they're getting ignored) | 00:46 |
| IndyGunFreak | wachunei: intel devices took a major step back in 9.04... you can get compiz to work, but you'll have to enable unsupported updates to make it work...then update, then restart and compiz *should* work.. i had mixed results w/ it. | 00:47 |
| wachunei | IndyGunFreak: i just commented all blacklisted devices | 00:47 |
| ctmjr | spinx8565, in a terminal open alsamixer make sure everything is up using the arrow keys | 00:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | wachunei: i really doubt thats gonna fix anything | 00:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | !intel | wachunei | 00:48 |
| ubottu | wachunei: Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. | 00:48 |

| gotskillz1 | sigh im new to ubuntu | 00:49 |
| gotskillz1 | i like what i see so far, but im a bit confused | 00:49 |

| boss_mc | gotskillz1: well, bombard us with questions and we'll help as best we can | 00:49 |
| gotskillz1 | ok hehe | 00:49 |
| wachunei | if im able to render "glxgears" means 3d accel? | 00:50 |
| gotskillz1 | First off.... i accidentally removed part of my bottom panel that allowed me to switch in between applications, kind of like the winblows taskbar. | 00:50 |
| gotskillz1 | i am using kde | 00:50 |
| Cass | wachunei: glxgears will run without, unless its really fast | 00:50 |
| fccf | gotskillz1: #kubuntu is a good place for help in kde | 00:51 |
| Zal | wachunei, no, not necessarily. Run glxinfo |grep -i direct | 00:51 |
| Cass | wachunei: it dont mean compiz supports the driver | 00:51 |
| Linuz2009 | hello | 00:51 |
| fccf | Linuz2009: Hi | 00:51 |
| Cass | ill be shocked if parallels will run compiz | 00:52 |
| gotskillz1 | fccf: id have to disagree with you, the channel is dead. | 00:52 |
| Cass | ill switch if it does :-) | 00:52 |
| Linuz2009 | I was having some technical difficulties when going to ubuntu support channel. | 00:52 |
| ctmjr | wachunei, type glxinfo | grep render and if it says yes and hardware rasterizer your good to go | 00:52 |
| Linuz2009 | but it seem fine for now | 00:52 |
| spinx8565 | ctmjr: I put everything to max--the "front" wasn't all the way up; however, I still don't seem to be getting the volume I usually get. | 00:53 |
| Linuz2009 | so I here to ask how to update mozilla firefox | 00:53 |
| wachunei | ctmjr: direct rendering: Yes | 00:53 |
| Linuz2009 | I want update patches for the browser | 00:53 |
| spinx8565 | ctmjr: and still no sound at a little under 50% on the mixer. | 00:53 |
| fccf | !update | Linuz2009 | 00:53 |
| wachunei | ctmjr: Software Rasterizer | 00:53 |
| ubottu | Linuz2009: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 00:53 |
| cabrey | Linuz2009, System > Administration > Update Manager | 00:53 |
| fccf | Linuz2009: ignore that | 00:54 |
| boscop | it seems that a program that should be in the PATH, is not, because it cannot be found. where should custom paths be added? I did it it .bashrc | 00:54 |
| mib_csj1b03z | hey guys, can someone tell me how i can set my icon when im loggin in? | 00:54 |
| ctmjr | spinx8565, make sure the app your using the volume is up | 00:55 |
| Cass | wachunei: http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=31351&highlight=compiz | 00:55 |
| fccf | Linuz2009: there are a number of additions for mozilla firefox - you can see a list in synaptic package manager | 00:55 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, System > Administration > Users and Groups | 00:55 |
| Cass | few posts down | 00:55 |
| Yc0reVoO | last time i run linux was in 1995. how do you install linux software downloaded over the web (the extensiion *.gz or *.bz2)? | 00:55 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: actually it's prefrences about me just found it | 00:55 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, disregard that, it is actually System > Preferences > About Me | 00:55 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: was talking to u before im back now | 00:55 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, :) | 00:55 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: yep :D | 00:55 |
| ctmjr | wachunei, then you do not have full 3d what video card do you have? | 00:56 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: loving these icons, i used the login theme from the site and shik-themes | 00:56 |
| enrique | spanish? | 00:56 |
| wachunei | ctmjr: black macbook | 00:56 |
| wachunei | enrique: claro | 00:56 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, gnome-colors? | 00:56 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: yep | 00:56 |
| mdm | !ed | 00:56 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, yea they are really good | 00:56 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ed | 00:56 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: lol did u forget already about when we talked | 00:56 |
| mdm | !es | 00:56 |
| ubottu | 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. | 00:56 |
| buttons840 | i don't know if i believe that, because i was using a linux distro that is years old the other day, and ls -d listed onlya period, just the same | 00:57 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, no i remember | 00:57 |
| wachunei | enrique: talk to me privately, i could translate | 00:57 |
| Linuz2009 | right now my firefox version is 3.0 and it seem that there's version 3.5 | 00:57 |
| fccf | Yc0reVoO: ubuntu comes with alot of software that can be installed automatically - often tar or gzipped files will require compiling - | 00:57 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: what does teh about me do other than just have all ur info lol | 00:57 |
| buttons840 | i've open nautilus using gksudo nautilus, i then enter the fallowing in the location "ssh://ester@192.168.0.100/" but this returns an error "could not find the loations /home/buttons/ssh://ester@192.168.0.100/" also note, this process works perfectly when i use regular nautilus, but not when i open it as super user | 00:57 |
| Linuz2009 | so I click to install all 3.5 version of firefox. | 00:57 |
| wachunei | Linuz2009: yep, 3.5b4 (former 3.1) | 00:57 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, pretty much it | 00:58 |
| elad` | Sometimes, bash uses /more/ on its own, when the output is long. I'd rather it always went with /less/. Is that possible? | 00:58 |
| boscop | I have a program that is in my path but it cannot be found with "sudo". does that mean that it is not in root's PATH? where do I set it? | 00:58 |
| cabrey | Linuz2009, there is a beta available | 00:58 |
| boss_mc | boscop: in /root/.bashrc | 00:58 |
| boscop | boss_mc: thanks so much | 00:59 |
| spinx8565 | ctmjr: it is all the way up. I'm using Rhythmbox. I have a louder maximum since setting "front" to max with alsamixer, but volume control is still sort of off. Maybe I'm just being picky? | 00:59 |
| cabrey | Linuz2009, sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 | 00:59 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: just wanted to point out a security issue, before I edited the /etc/fstab and made a mistake where my machine wouldnt work, I then used my live cd to try and make a change, I was able to edit the fstab file using the sudo but it didnt ask me for a password, isnt this a security bug? | 00:59 |
| Trixar_za | 3.5 is out? | 00:59 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, no | 00:59 |
| wachunei | Trixar_za: beta 4 | 00:59 |
| mdm | Linuz2009: your box has a set of software deemed safe for you to run. Newer code is often unstable. And even given that warning some people insist on compiling it then complaining about how it dosn't work. I would HIGHLY suggest you simply use firefox from the repositories. | 01:00 |
| Trixar_za | ah, I'll wait for the stable release then | 01:00 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: so then anyone with a live cd could edit ur files, no? | 01:00 |
| bash | hey | 01:00 |
| musikgoat|main | mib_csj1b03z: if you have physical access, the machine is pwned | 01:00 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, when you have physical access to the machine, all bets are off unless you encrypted the hdd | 01:00 |
| Linuz2009 | it said the current firefox is at the newest version | 01:00 |
| buttons840 | also, does anyone know why the "connect to server" option in nautilus behaves differently when you open as super user versus opening as regular user? | 01:00 |
| boss_mc | mib_csj1b03z: that's equivalent to pulling the HD out, plugging it into another machine and expecting that machine to ask for your password before it lets you into the files | 01:00 |
| ctmjr | spinx8565, might be like me and getting old and do not hear so good any more | 01:00 |
| Jeruvy | mib_csj1b03z: provided they have the sudo password sure, or did you not have to sudo it? | 01:00 |
| wachunei | Trixar_za: here in mac os x is pretty stable, and works with weave, awesome foxkmarks killer | 01:00 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, yup, but you usually can disable cd booting from within the bios, then set a bios password | 01:00 |
| mib_csj1b03z | Jeruvy: I didn't have to put in sudo pass, thats my whole point | 01:01 |
| musikgoat|main | Jeruvy: that means nothing, cause sudo is on the live cd | 01:01 |
| spinx8565 | ctmjr: lol, but I'm only 21! I do play the drums, though. Thanks for your help. | 01:01 |
| Linuz2009 | okay I installed from the command line | 01:01 |
| Trixar_za | ok | 01:01 |
| Trixar_za | let met apt-get it then | 01:01 |
| sjlkg | hi, i want to completely disable bluetooth on my netbook, what is the best way to do this? | 01:01 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: yeah lol what was weird was that it didnt ask me for a pass that's what i was concerned about | 01:01 |
| Cass | sjlkg: bios | 01:01 |
| cabrey | sjlkg, System > Administration > Services | 01:01 |
| Trixar_za | I already reinstalled my firefox before, it keeps closing on it's own | 01:01 |
| ctmjr | spinx8565, your welcome | 01:01 |
| Trixar_za | I need to do it anyway >.> | 01:01 |
| Jeruvy | musikgoat|main: but the password wouldn't... | 01:02 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, it's understood | 01:02 |
| sjlkg | Cass: bios doesn't seem to have a bluetooth setting, just wifi | 01:02 |
| cabrey | sjlkg, System > Administration > Services | 01:02 |
| sjlkg | what about blacklisting the btusb kernel module? | 01:02 |
| Cass | sjlkg: wow, my eepc and dell 9s does | 01:02 |
| wachunei | yay! Transmission 1.7! | 01:02 |
| musikgoat|main | Trixar_za: run it from terminal, note the errors you get and search for them | 01:02 |
| boscop | boss_mc: do I have to do something to make it available in this session? because it seems that it isn't refreshed yet | 01:02 |
| mib_csj1b03z | cabrey: no one has physical access to my PC that i dont want to have, but just something i wanted to mention, :D | 01:02 |
| Cass | sjlkg: sorry just dell 9s, eee does not have it | 01:02 |
| boss_mc | boscop: do sudo source /root/.bashrc | 01:02 |
| boss_mc | boscop: or restart the session | 01:03 |
| cabrey | mib_csj1b03z, I am very stingy who touches my netbook :) | 01:03 |
| Cass | wow this channel is busy | 01:03 |
| cabrey | Cass, it is usually busier | 01:03 |
| sjlkg | cabrey: services doesn't disable the bluetooth adapter completely though, i guess? | 01:03 |
| fccf | Cass: this channel is always busy | 01:03 |
| abe3k | who needs help ? | 01:03 |
| boscop | boss_mc: why does it say: sudo: source: command not found ? | 01:03 |
| musikgoat|main | Cass: yeah, release days are usually really busy | 01:03 |
| Cass | fccf: yeah not partook in a while and it is reeeealllly busy | 01:03 |
| Jeruvy | mib_csj1b03z: noted, thank you. | 01:04 |
| Trixar_za | musikgoat|main: doesn't throw errors while starting up, but will keep it open until the bug reproduces itself | 01:04 |
| cabrey | sjlkg, it disables it from the OS perspective and you said it is not in your BIOS, so this is all you can do | 01:04 |
| EdgEy | hello, why can i not create ntfs partitions using gparted ? | 01:04 |
| fccf | Cass: Participating here can be alot of fun... wanna help | 01:04 |
| Cass | musikgoat|main: release days ? what did i miss ? | 01:04 |
| musikgoat|main | Trixar_za: if you want to get really detailed, you should trace it | 01:04 |
| abe3k | EdgEy : you'll need to install the ntfs tools too | 01:04 |
| cabrey | Cass, like when 9.04 came out | 01:05 |
| boss_mc | boscop: you'll have to switch to root (sudo -i) then do source /root/.bashrc | 01:05 |
| musikgoat|main | !trace | Trixar_za | 01:05 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about trace | 01:05 |
| musikgoat|main | !strace | Trixar_za | 01:05 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about strace | 01:05 |
| Cass | cabrey: ohh yeah thats a few weeks ago though no ? | 01:05 |
| boss_mc | !botabuse | musikgoat|main | 01:05 |
| ubottu | musikgoat|main: Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". | 01:05 |

| cabrey | Cass, April 26 I think, gee I already forget | 01:05 |
| sjlkg | cabrey: what are the advantages of blacklisting the btusb kernel module with modprobe blacklist.conf then? | 01:05 |
| mib_csj1b03z | Jeruvy: u a developer or no? | 01:05 |
| abe3k | EdgEy : package name ntfsprogs | 01:05 |
| EdgEy | thanks | 01:05 |
| musikgoat|main | thanks Jeruvy | 01:06 |
| cabrey | sjlkg, not much different, the hardware will still be idling | 01:06 |
| Jeruvy | mib_csj1b03z: no. not for ubuntu | 01:06 |
| Cass | cabrey: heh, i guess *buntu is more popular than most | 01:06 |
| mib_csj1b03z | Jeruvy: ok | 01:06 |
| boscop | boss_mc: ok, but it still doesn't seem to find that program in that folder | 01:07 |
| boss_mc | boscop: what's the program? | 01:07 |
| boscop | boss_mc: it's a build tool, named dsss | 01:07 |
| boss_mc | boscop: s/what/where/ | 01:07 |
| tomtommy | boss_mc, hello | 01:07 |
| boscop | boss_mc: it's in /home/oliver/dev/dsss/bin | 01:08 |
| mib_csj1b03z | what encryption do the keys in ubuntu use? | 01:08 |
| sjlkg | cabrey: my problem is, the runtime on my netbook is quite ridiculous.. 4 hours with wifi compared to up to 7 hours under windows | 01:08 |
| sjlkg | so i'm looking for ways to improve the runtime | 01:08 |
| cabrey | sjlkg, what netbook do you have? | 01:08 |
| sjlkg | cabrey: a samsung n110, which is quite similar to the nc10 | 01:08 |
| tomtommy | mib_csj1b03z, PGP | 01:09 |
| Cass | sjlkg, wow 7 hrs ... nice | 01:09 |
| Cass | sjlkg, use windows .. :p | 01:09 |
| boss_mc | tomtommy: hello... | 01:09 |
| tomtommy | sjlkg, are those netbooks any good? | 01:09 |
| Jeruvy | Cass: thats what I'm thinking... ;P | 01:09 |
| * boss_mc wonders if he knows tomtommy | 01:09 | |
| abe3k | sjlkg : turning down simple things like screen brightness and sound volume and desktop effects could help very much | 01:09 |
| Linuz2009 | is there a registration site for creating a nickname? | 01:09 |
| tomtommy | boss_mc, :) | 01:09 |
| Linuz2009 | For IRC. | 01:09 |
| Cass | Jeruvy, sounds like the cpu scaling is not working for atom | 01:10 |
| boss_mc | boscop: you can call it as sudo /home/oliver/.../bin/dsss <args> | 01:10 |
| cabrey | sjlkg, you can try the array.org netbook kernel | 01:10 |
| Jeruvy | !freenode | Linuz2009 | 01:10 |
| ubottu | Linuz2009: freenode is Freenode is the IRC network that you're on! See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml. Freenode has policies that govern how people should use the network which can be read at http://freenode.net/policy.shtml. The ubuntu channels on Freenode also have their own !guidelines | 01:10 |
| brig | I just saved a XChat transcript, and closed xchat, how do I view the trascript.log file... it looks binary!? | 01:10 |
| sjlkg | tomtommy: yes, they are :) depends what you're planning to do though. until now i haven't come across a thing i couldn't do on a netbook | 01:10 |
| Jeruvy | Cass: or maybe i/o related..but I'm just speculating :) | 01:10 |
| boscop | boss_mc: yes, I did this before but it's annoying. so I thought it may be possible to edd it tot the path | 01:10 |
| sjlkg | tomtommy: except games of course | 01:10 |
| tomtommy | sjlkg, can you play games on it, e.g Battlefield 2142? | 01:11 |
| tomtommy | sjlkg, thats too bad | 01:11 |
| boscop | s/edd/add | 01:11 |
| mib_csj1b03z | tomtommy: im guessing PGP is nowhere near AES-256 or AES-128 for that matter? | 01:11 |
| boss_mc | boscop: can you still not use it through sudo after restarting the terminal? | 01:11 |
| boss_mc | boscop: or even just opening a new one | 01:11 |
| tomtommy | mib_csj1b03z, its 1024 and 2048 | 01:11 |
| ewsubach | does browsing the internet generate incoming UDP packets? if so, on what ports? | 01:11 |
| Cass | Jeruvy, indeed, im sure there was an article a while ago about ubuntu and io not playing nice | 01:11 |
| boscop | boss_mc: no | 01:12 |
| elad` | I want the full-fledged vim. How do I get that? | 01:12 |
| tomtommy | mib_csj1b03z, using PGP adds billions of years trying to brute force breaking it, compared to AES-256 or AES-128 :) | 01:12 |
| boss_mc | elad`: install vim-full | 01:12 |
| sjlkg | tomtommy: older games work, world of goo works :p but heavy 3d games won't | 01:12 |
| boss_mc | boscop: what did you add to /root/.bashrc? | 01:12 |
| mib_csj1b03z | tomtommy: so it's more secure than AES? | 01:12 |
| boscop | elad`: apt-get install vim? | 01:12 |
| cabrey | ^ | 01:12 |
| boscop | boss_mc: PATH="/home/oliver/dev/dsss/bin:$PATH" | 01:12 |
| tomtommy | mib_csj1b03z, put it this way,,, nobody can break it, ever! not in billions of years | 01:12 |
| Qwell | So, what exactly does unchecking an item do in Update Manager? | 01:12 |
| cabrey | tomtommy, i wouldn't say that... | 01:12 |
| boss_mc | boscop: do sudo -i | 01:12 |
| brig | ewsubach: yes, tcpip runs on udp... sort of | 01:12 |
| tomtommy | cabrey, I would | 01:13 |
| mib_csj1b03z | tomtommy: until someone finds a way that is :P but cool | 01:13 |
| boss_mc | boscop: then try echo $PATH | 01:13 |
| elad` | brb | 01:13 |
| elad` | Thanks | 01:13 |
| cabrey | tomtommy, do you remember the SSL scandal | 01:13 |
| brig | I just saved a XChat transcript, and closed xchat, how do I view the trascript.log file... it looks binary!? How do I read it? | 01:13 |
| mib_csj1b03z | another thing my farm animals in terminal ran away with their witty quotes how can i get them back? | 01:13 |
| ctmjr | Qwell, it does not install it | 01:13 |
| boscop | boss_mc: that path is there | 01:13 |
| tomtommy | mib_csj1b03z, if you line up 100 of the fastest most powerful computers to brute force a good passworded PGP file, it would take billions of years | 01:13 |
| Qwell | ctmjr: you'd think so | 01:13 |
| Qwell | but...no | 01:14 |
| boss_mc | boscop: then it totally should work if you've got no typos anywhere.... | 01:14 |
| tomtommy | cabrey, exactly, scandal, hysteria, not fact :) | 01:14 |
| ewsubach | brig: i want to only allow UDP through firewall on ports that browsing internet would need. do you know which ones I need to leave open? | 01:14 |
| mib_csj1b03z | tomtommy: lol that's crazy, I always wonder how the actual computer doesnt know what the password is but once u put it in correctly, it knows it's the right password | 01:14 |
| poseidon | Anyone know of an alternative to warcraft 3 (tower defense type game) that will run natively on linux? (I've had bad luck with wine) | 01:14 |
| cabrey | tomtommy, when debian screwed up the SSL package, that was a fact | 01:14 |
| mib_csj1b03z | why doesnt everyone use PGP over AES sounds more secure | 01:15 |
| tomtommy | mib_csj1b03z, if you can calculate trillions of passwords per second, it will still take billions of years to find your password | 01:15 |
| boss_mc | tomtommy: they screwed up bad, all SSL keys generated for about 6 months were in a set of only about 1024 | 01:15 |
| brig | ewsubach: which ever ports are used, UDP is like TCPIP, not like http, so all ports are possbly the right one | 01:15 |
| ctmjr | Qwell, them maybe you should rephrase your question | 01:15 |
| tomtommy | cabrey, im talking PGP not debian SSL lol | 01:15 |
| Jeruvy | mib_csj1b03z: pgp is commercial. | 01:15 |
| cabrey | tomtommy, just using it as an example that unbreakable things can break | 01:15 |
| Qwell | ctmjr: how about.. "When unchecking items in Update Manager, why does it still install them?" | 01:15 |
| Linuz2009 | How do I use the chrootkit command? | 01:15 |
| tomtommy | i challenge anyone here to break my PGP file | 01:15 |
| froes | is there any msn clients that can do video calling ??? | 01:15 |
| mib_csj1b03z | tomtommy: well not if ur password is like abc and they brute-force it :P | 01:15 |
| LjL | !offtopic | 01:16 |

| tomtommy | mib_csj1b03z, my password is 27 charaters in lenght.. contains spaces etc | 01:16 |
| tomtommy | mib_csj1b03z, I remember it in my head | 01:16 |
| boscop | boss_mc: I can call the program normally (i.e with no arguments) but when I try to pass arguments it doesn't get found | 01:16 |
| mib_csj1b03z | Jeruvy: is or isn't, if it's commercial why is ubuntu using it | 01:16 |
| ewsubach | brig: I have no idea. i'm using firefox, but it should only be using tcp! as soon as i disable any udp i get no connectivity to the internet | 01:16 |
| froes | is there a way to make fn keys work on ubuntu ? | 01:16 |
| boscop | boss_mc: both normal user and root | 01:16 |
| boss_mc | boscop: that is very weird | 01:17 |
| mib_csj1b03z | tomtommy: lol is it a sentence like I went to the park today and played soccer lol | 01:17 |
| LjL | why don't you move this to #ubuntu-offtopic since it doesn't seem very much about ubuntu support? | 01:17 |
| Jeruvy | !info pgp | 01:17 |
| ubottu | Package pgp does not exist in jaunty | 01:17 |
| fccf | froes every laptop is different... have you searched for yours on ubuntuforums.org? | 01:17 |
| tomtommy | i challenge anyone here to break my PGP file... if you do, I give you my word of honour I will send you $10,000 via paypal... But if you fail, you pay me $1000. Ready to walk your talk cabrey and boss_mc ? | 01:17 |
| Cass | tomtommy, wow your not using sudo/su much then | 01:17 |
| mib_csj1b03z | so anyone know how i can get farm animals in my terminal? | 01:17 |
| ewsubach | froes: perhaps somewhere under system -> keyboard | 01:18 |
| genii | mib_csj1b03z: apt-get moo | 01:18 |
| froes | fccf, yeap .. have nothing on my toshiba. tried some solutions over there but none worked | 01:18 |

| cabrey | tomtommy, you completely misunderstood me | 01:18 |
| Linuz2009 | what does nmap doe\? | 01:18 |
| Qwell | tomtommy: So, I'll need a deposit. | 01:18 |
| boss_mc | tomtommy: I'm not taking you up on that, you are correct PGP is incredibly hard to crack, but the SSL keys made during debian's failure are easy | 01:18 |
| mib_csj1b03z | genii: thanks :P cant live without my farm animals | 01:18 |
| genii | mib_csj1b03z: Understandable | 01:18 |

| Linuz2009 | what does war scan do? | 01:19 |
| genii | tomtommy and boss_mc - You can take the SSL/PGP talk out of the support channel please | 01:19 |
| tomtommy | mib_csj1b03z, well crack it anyway.. prove to me you can break it as you claim | 01:19 |
| tomtommy | genii, ok | 01:19 |
| brig | ewsubach: OK if you have open the UDP to get TCP to work, so if you want access to the machine open TCP:80 and UDP:80... if you want to allow for a udp based torrent to work, only UDP, opening TCP only permits one way access. I forget which way | 01:19 |

| enovativ | i am trying to get my ubuntu 9.04 to recognize my USB modem....i tried the folowing : cat /proc/bus/usb/devices devices | 01:42 |
| enovativ | but of course there is no directory called "devices"...and for some reason i can't create it | 01:42 |
| boss_mc | !dontzap | intuition | 01:42 |
| ubottu | intuition: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 01:42 |
| Qwell | boss_mc: dropped? | 01:42 |
| gartral | Qwell: every time I tryed setting it up, it would take way to many resources away from the rest of my machine | 01:42 |
| brig | Qwell: nope... definatly ascii, try it | 01:42 |
| Qwell | gartral: then you did it wrong :) | 01:42 |
| gartral | Qwell: this was right after it was done being installed | 01:42 |
| ewsubach | brig: don't think i need it, but thanks for the info. i'm glad I got my problem sorted out :) | 01:42 |
| Isaac | I've googled this multiple ways. How do you convert a song to .flac and get it to convert to the smallest setting? .flac files made with dBpowerAMP in Windoze are 1/3 the size of .flac files made in Ubuntu with SoundConverter. In powerAMP I can set a compression level. In SoundConverter I can't. And I can't find an audio converter that will let me. | 01:42 |
| fccf | gastral: another option is a 8ohm>1K transformer on the phone line and lineinput | 01:43 |
| Isaac | Anyone have any tips? | 01:43 |
| mib_csj1b03z | boss_mc: ohh ok cool just update, so when a new version appears on the default ubuntu ones i would just update again right? | 01:43 |
| Qwell | gartral: you did something wrong if it was taking any measurable amount of resources with no calls | 01:43 |

| atg_ | I couldn't find any other netbooks from dell having ubuntu | 02:04 |
| fccf | gnaymede: apt has a habit of reading the local database, everytime it installs a package, --- use aptitude | 02:04 |

| Qwell | marito: but it shows up to the system as a sound card? | 02:06 |
| geirha | ganymede: Try running "sudo aptitude" (with no install or remove arguments). You'll find documentation on how to navigate it in /usr/share/doc/aptitude/ | 02:06 |
| Qwell | You said it's just a USB dongle.. | 02:06 |

| elad | Qwell, I'm back. | 02:17 |
| quinn | bye | 02:17 |
| jv1 | anyone know the status of the RT kernel for jaunty? last time i tried (May)was not good | 02:17 |
| Qwell | elad: looking now. it's been a while.. | 02:17 |
| cabrey | jv1, have you looked into ubuntu studio? | 02:18 |
| ankur | geirha: yeah. i had been trying to do that, to make it work for newer versions of ubuntu. The related thread on ubuntu forums is dead too. | 02:18 |
| felix_ | will badblock mark damaged blocks 'forever' or next time i format i must do the same? | 02:18 |
| jv1 | ah! sure..wrong channel ,sorry :( | 02:18 |
| Qwell | elad: there is Application Switcher and Static Application Switcher. You want the latter. | 02:19 |
| EEMPHASISS | Here's an interesting one. I installed Ubuntu9.4. One of my screen fonts for my log-in (not other log-ins), which I did not set, is stuck on s handwriting font, which cannot be changed for the panel & some dialogs. See http://alfredo4570.customer.netspace.net.au/var/Screenshot-1.jpg | 02:19 |
| bastid_raZor | EEMPHASISS; that is probably that style for that theme | 02:19 |
| elad | Qwell, that's still a switcher. I want no switcher. I don't need any distracting visual feedback for alt-tabbing - I know that I'm alt-tabbing. | 02:20 |
| fccf | EEMPHASISS: look in system>preferences>appearence> font tab - see if it is there | 02:21 |
| Qwell | elad: yeah.. click it and look at the bottom under Bindings | 02:21 |
| Qwell | "Next window (No popup)" | 02:21 |
| TomTommy | Im trying to use a softphone anf ubuntu says on the softphone "blocked in firewall".. how do I unblock it from ubuntu firewall? | 02:21 |
| EEMPHASISS | bastid_raZor: it's the default theme, I think, apart from me trying to change the fonts to Arial, as you can see. Firefox obeys the theme's fonts, but not much else. | 02:21 |
| Qwell | change your bindings to those ones | 02:21 |
| fennng | is there any console network sniffer i can use under ubuntu. | 02:22 |
| ankur | is wubi open-source? | 02:22 |
| TomTommy | anyone know? | 02:22 |
| Cass | fennng, tcpdump | 02:22 |
| fennng | Cass: Thanks. | 02:22 |
| lorph | which log file do I see to find out why my computer last rebooted? | 02:22 |
| cjae | This does not really make it look like they fixed the separate x screens issue... only the screen 0 app opens on screen 1 thing | 02:23 |
| hskill | does ubuntu run on e-machines? | 02:23 |
| cjae | http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_185.18.14.html | 02:23 |
| EEMPHASISS | fccf: Yes I did, you can see the fonts dialog in the screenshot. | 02:23 |
| Qwell | hskill: yes | 02:23 |
| TomTommy | how do I add a softphone to the ubuntu firewall? | 02:23 |
| elad | Qwell - sorry? What? | 02:23 |
| cabrey | !firewall | 02:24 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 02:24 |
| EEMPHASISS | fccf, here http://alfredo4570.customer.netspace.net.au/var/Screenshot-1.jpg | 02:24 |
| fennng | Cass: cool, it's already there, I didn't know it. | 02:24 |
| Qwell | elad: when you click Static Application Switcher, it will bring up a list.. in that list are the bindings for that setting. You can enable the bottom ones that say "No popup" | 02:24 |
| elad | Qwell, where do I set that? | 02:24 |
| Cass | fennng, yeah its a great app ... | 02:24 |
| desnaike | TomTommy try here http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Ekiga_behind_a_NAT_router | 02:24 |
| Qwell | in simple-ccsm.. | 02:24 |
| elad | Qwell, I'm using simple-ccsm. I'm guessing you're using something else? | 02:24 |
| TomTommy | desnaike: im using x-lite | 02:24 |
| Qwell | crap, you're right. I was using ccsm | 02:25 |
| hskill | qwell the e-machine i want comes with an integrated nvidia geforce 6150SE, will that run in linux ok dual-monitor? | 02:25 |
| desnaike | give it a look | 02:25 |
| Qwell | hskill: is it a dual-port card? | 02:25 |
| felix_ | i installed ubuntu server, then apt-get ubuntu-desktop; but i havent got sound. my soundcard is intel integrated ich5 | 02:25 |
| fccf | EEMPHASISS: not sure why it is doing that - unless you tell me how you did it - I am stumped | 02:25 |
| TomTommy | desnaike: Ekiga works,, but how do I add x-lite to ubuntu firewall? | 02:25 |
| TomTommy | is there a program so I can access firewall using a GUI? | 02:25 |
| TomTommy | is Firestarter the ultime way? | 02:25 |
| desnaike | firestarter | 02:25 |
| felix_ | TomTommy, gufw | 02:25 |
| felix_ | TomTommy, gufw, firestarter is the same | 02:26 |
| Gourlis | How do I get the latest updates on Java ? I have Java version 6 but not Update 13. | 02:26 |
| TomTommy | Ekiga doesn't allow me to choose different codecs, e.g iLBC, so I cannot use it | 02:26 |
| Cass | TomTommy, i used firestarted years ago .. it was the bes back then | 02:26 |
| TomTommy | felix_: you seem to know what you talking about.. Im trying to use a softphone anf ubuntu says on the softphone "blocked in firewall".. how do I unblock it from ubuntu firewall? | 02:26 |
| TomTommy | Cass: so I: sudo apt-get install gufw ? | 02:27 |
| Cass | TomTommy, what ports used for softphone ? | 02:27 |
| Cass | add those manually .. not sure these days... esp with gufw | 02:27 |
| TomTommy | Cass: how can I know? | 02:28 |
| hskill | qwell i'm googling but nothing says | 02:28 |
| Qwell | Ekiga, so probably SIP.. 5060 UDP and whatever RTP ports you set. | 02:28 |
| Cass | TomTommy, what is the app .. ekiga ? | 02:28 |
| Qwell | hskill: look on the back. does it have 2 ports? does it work in dual-head mode in Windows? | 02:28 |
| TomTommy | qwe: Ekiga works and connects to my voip,, but x-lite doenst | 02:28 |
| elad | Qwell, where do I get ccsm? | 02:28 |
| TomTommy | Cass: x-lite | 02:28 |
| EEMPHASISS | fccf: It's a bit of a story. Installed Ubuntu 7.10 long ago, tried Kubuntu 8.4, then Kubuntu 9.4, but *hated* KDE4. Installed (*not* upgraded) Ubuntu9.4 ... I am assuming there is an "old" font setting somewhere that is not in the Fonts Dialog. Where's the config file for Fonts? I'll edit it manually.... | 02:28 |
| Qwell | elad: compizconfig-settings-manager it was a dependency of simple-ccsm.. | 02:28 |
| TomTommy | i found it.. 5060 | 02:29 |
| Qwell | TomTommy: Your x-lite settings are wrong. x-lite is a PITA to configure | 02:29 |
| Cass | TomTommy, http://www.trixbox.org/forums/trixbox-forums/open-discussion/x-lite-remotely | 02:29 |
| Qwell | and that's what I just said. | 02:29 |
| Cass | heh yeah | 02:29 |
| TomTommy | how do I add SIP port 5060 to ubuntu firewall? | 02:29 |
| Qwell | Why do I bother... | 02:29 |
| elad | Qwell, but how do I launch it? | 02:29 |
| Qwell | elad: by running ccsm | 02:29 |
| yvonne | hey i need help... i just bought a linksys wireless g card. for my lappy... | 02:29 |
| yvonne | and i need help installing it... | 02:30 |
| Cass | TomTommy, http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/gufw.html | 02:30 |
| TomTommy | this is why ppl go back to windows.. Ubuntu is still too hard to get things like Voip working :P | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | !wireless | yvonne | 02:30 |
| ubottu | yvonne: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 02:30 |
| elad | Silly me. :) | 02:30 |
| cabrey | TomTommy, so use skype or something | 02:30 |
| Qwell | TomTommy: x-lite is a PITA to configure in Windows too | 02:30 |
| Cass | TomTommy, sudo apt-get install gufw | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | yvonne: you got to be careful with wireless devices, they don't all just work on Linux | 02:30 |
| EEMPHASISS | Anyone know where the config file for Preferences>Fonts is? I need to edit it manually. | 02:31 |
| yvonne | ahh man walmart is verrrry far from my home | 02:31 |
| sebsebseb | yvonne: some can be tricky to set up, and others you might not be able to get working at all, unless ndiswrapper works which allows the Windows driver to work | 02:31 |
| TomTommy | qhats PITA mean? | 02:31 |
| Cass | TomTommy, i dont use ubuntu these days so this is the best i can do ... google is your friend | 02:31 |
| yvonne | okay | 02:31 |
| Cass | TomTommy, pain in the ass | 02:31 |
| TomTommy | Cass: you in ubuntu chanel but you dont use ubuntu> | 02:31 |
| gartral | is it a known problem with audio buffers not being deleted when games exit in ubuntu? | 02:31 |
| sebsebseb | yvonne: sadly not all hardware manufactures support Linux properly or at all | 02:32 |
| felix_ | i installed ubuntu server, then apt-get ubuntu-desktop; but i havent got sound. my soundcard is intel integrated ich5 | 02:32 |
| elad | Qwell, ok, so I got ccsm running. That's... a lot. What do I do now? | 02:32 |
| TomTommy | Qwell: no way!! I got x-lite working in Vista in 1 mins | 02:32 |
| Qwell | elad: look for static application switcher, then follow what I said | 02:32 |
| yvonne | well i double hope this one works for me... | 02:32 |
| Cass | TomTommy, im a unix guy .. i like to keep my hand in .. last i use ubuntu was the latest version aplpha | 02:32 |
| Cass | alpha | 02:32 |
| elad | Qwell, I found it, and I got it checkboxed. But what now? | 02:32 |
| TomTommy | how do I now access gufw? | 02:32 |
| fccf | felix_: you will manually need to add the audio group | 02:32 |
| Cass | TomTommy, sudo apt-get install gufw | 02:32 |
| sebsebseb | yvonne: looking at the link the bot gave, that's a start | 02:33 |
| TomTommy | Cass: done! now what? | 02:33 |
| Cass | TomTommy, gufw from command line or the menu's | 02:33 |
| TomTommy | not in menu | 02:33 |
| Qwell | Cass: Is there a support group for people who want to become ex-ubuntu users? | 02:33 |
| Cass | TomTommy, did you look at the tutorial i showed, its in that ? | 02:33 |
| yvonne | yup im there already reading and at the terminal.. | 02:33 |
| TomTommy | Cass: cant see it anywhere | 02:34 |
| Cass | Qwell, LOL, #opensolaris | 02:34 |
| felix_ | fccf, what packages? | 02:34 |
| gartral | !lol | Cass | 02:34 |

| Qwell | Cass: I hate you so much. You're the second person to recommend that. :p | 02:34 |
| TomTommy | when I ran gufw, it says firewall isnt even enabled.. wtf? | 02:34 |
| Cass | ubottu, :p | 02:34 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about p | 02:34 |
| lstarnes | TomTommy: sudo ufw enable | 02:34 |
| elad | Qwell? | 02:34 |
| fccf | felix_ not a package - permissions - audio group | 02:35 |
| TomTommy | lstarnes: how will that help x-lite work?:P | 02:35 |

| marito | bye...... | 02:35 |
| EEMPHASISS | Anyone know where the config file for System>Appearance>Preferences>Fonts is? I need to edit it manually. | 02:35 |
| TomTommy | x-lite says "discovring firewall...... blocked in firewall".. then x-lite wont work | 02:36 |

| felix_ | fccf, where i do that? | 02:36 |
| chronographer | Hi. New install of jaunty and USB external HDD are not automounted. Known bug? | 02:36 |
| fccf | felix_ you are doing it the hard way, you know? | 02:37 |
| Qwell | gartral: I suspect the point of that bot entry is for "LOL" or "OMG" on a line by itself, with no other substance. | 02:37 |
| EEMPHASISS | fccf: Me too. . . I changed one of the fonts to typo3 & I'm doing a grep for that . . . | 02:37 |
| TomTommy | damn, :( gufw has a bug.. when it loads the GUI, it freezes.. what can I do? | 02:37 |

| buttons840 | Hi, I'm installing ubuntu server edition, and it randomly fails to install. I believe the installation comes from corrupted or incomplete downloads. I'm used to this happening with apt-get, and I simply delete the faulty debs and then they will be redownloaded.

| cabrey | yvonne, you need to use ndiswrapper | 02:46 |
| Cass | TomTommy, no worries about that .. you fw is working | 02:46 |
| sebsebseb | yvonne: to get that wireless working you basically have 3 options. 1. figure out how to get it working natively if it's possible should be 2. use Ndiswrapper which I mentioned earlier 3. try another Linux distro where you may have more luck with wireless, one comes to mind | 02:46 |
| kitche | bfig: uname -a should say x86_64 in there someplace if not it would be i686 | 02:46 |

| yvonne | so i can learn how to and pass on the ubuntu knowledge | 02:50 |
| sebsebseb | yvonne: infact you hardly need to know any commands, just know what commands to put in when it comes to say configuring the wireless | 02:50 |
| minimec | yvonne: The driver for your card seems to be unstable. There are people getting connection in combination with there hardware, others not. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1146023 | 02:50 |
| sebsebseb | minimec: ok so ndiswrapper job | 02:51 |
| edbian | yvonne, ubuntu is a variant of linux btw | 02:51 |
| sebsebseb | minimec: say said she had the drivers CD | 02:51 |
| Cass | TomTommy, iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT | 02:51 |
| Cass | iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT | 02:51 |
| Cass | iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT | 02:51 |
| Qwell | It isn't a variant. | 02:51 |
| cabrey | minimec, that was the page i was just on :P | 02:51 |
| co_dwsa | pengen | 02:51 |
| edbian | Qwell, What do you call it then? | 02:51 |
| Qwell | !ubuntu | 02:51 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com | 02:51 |
| Qwell | That. | 02:51 |
| sebsebseb | yvonne: you can get it working | 02:52 |
| sebsebseb | yvonne: I expect, just going to have to use the windows driver with a program called ndiswrapper | 02:52 |
| cabrey | yvonne, go to Applications > Add & Remove... | 02:52 |
| ratzes | can anyone help me with a theme issue in ubuntu? | 02:53 |
| ratzes | im kinda a noob | 02:53 |
| sebsebseb | !details | ratzes | 02:53 |
| ubottu | ratzes: 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 ..." | 02:53 |
| jvainio | state your problem | 02:53 |
| yvonne | ok | 02:53 |
| minimec | yvonne: sebsebseb: ndiswrapper could do the job, it seems. | 02:53 |
| minimec | cabrey: ;) | 02:53 |
| cabrey | yvonne, make sure "All available applications" are shown | 02:53 |
| sebsebseb | minimec: yes, but I don't remember how to get drivers working with ndiswrapper | 02:53 |
| GNICK | check the online docs for ndiswrapper | 02:54 |
| fccf | minimec: you might want to use ndisgtk - which is the gui front end for ndiswarpper | 02:54 |
| yvonne | windows wireless drivers??? | 02:54 |
| minimec | sebsebseb: the ones provided on the linksys page don't work? | 02:54 |
| sebsebseb | minimec: trust me it's people like yvonne that need to be won over to Ubuntu and such, or those programs wil never gain mass market share, slight off topic here I know | 02:54 |
| cabrey | yvonne, yes install that | 02:54 |
| sebsebseb | minimec: she has a driver CD, the Windows drivers | 02:54 |
| yvonne | okay | 02:54 |
| ratzes | I have some left over theme information set from some compiz or metacity theme, im not sure which one, now im running a theme out of the system->pref->apperance app and everything is working fine, but there are some weird settings that are still left over from the old themes. I was wondering how to get rid of this. | 02:55 |

| bigboss__ | hello people! can anyone help me installing my canon printer? | 02:55 |
| sebsebseb | !cups | bigboss__ | 02:55 |
| ubottu | bigboss__: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows | 02:55 |
| yvonne | his name was CiNc029 or 18 or 19 | 02:55 |
| cabrey | yvonne, ok open System > Administration > Windows Wireless Drivers | 02:55 |
| ratzes | i know a fresh install of ubuntu works perfect with this theme | 02:55 |
| jeremiah_ | how do you install windows games under ubuntu | 02:55 |
| bigboss__ | sebsebseb, unfortunatelly i cant found my printer drivers... i can just found 32bit's one and i have a 64bit system | 02:56 |
| grosbeak576 | Is it possible to switch to the oss version of sdl? If I try and install the oss version it says I must remove the alsa version first but this would also remove everything on which it depends. | 02:56 |
| Cass | jeremiah_, wine | 02:56 |
| buttons840 | that's a big question Jeremiah | 02:56 |
| sebsebseb | jeremiah_: Wine, but it also depends on the game | 02:56 |
| jeremiah_ | starcraft | 02:56 |
| minimec | sebsebseb: Well you need a good tutorial on the internet, or you have to guide her through the installation... ;) | 02:56 |
| fccf | jeremiah_: you might want to head over to #winehq for help with wine | 02:56 |
| jeremiah_ | thnx | 02:56 |
| sebsebseb | bigboss__: 64bit Linux drivers for Canon pretty unlikely, but maybe you can get the 32bit ones working some how | 02:56 |
| Qwell | sebsebseb: I don't buy that argument. Look at the conversation that just took place about Add/Remove programs | 02:56 |
| yvonne | okay installed | 02:56 |
| sebsebseb | Qwell: what? | 02:57 |
| cabrey | yvonne, download this: http://downloads.linksysbycisco.com/downloads/WPC100_XP_6.0.3.120,0.zip | 02:57 |
| bigboss__ | sebsebseb, i downdloaded my 32bit driver but how can i make it work on a 64bit machine? | 02:57 |
| Qwell | mind if I msg? you're right, it is OT | 02:57 |
| GNICK | the command --> wine suchandsuch.exe | 02:57 |
| sebsebseb | minimec: I would do it if I had the ndiswraper installation proccess in a document or something | 02:57 |
| sebsebseb | minimec: driver installation proccess | 02:57 |
| yvonne | okay | 02:57 |
| piasdom_ | hello all | 02:57 |
| cabrey | yvonne, extract the zip to the desktop | 02:58 |
| fccf | hello piasdom_ | 02:58 |
| sebsebseb | bigboss__: probably can't just do that, maybe it's not even possible | 02:58 |
| DROBSAN420 | hi guys | 02:58 |
| DROBSAN420 | need some help badly | 02:58 |
| cabrey | yvonne, double click on the zip then drap and drop the enclosed folder on the desktop | 02:58 |
| bigboss__ | sebsebseb, so i just cant use my printer??? | 02:58 |
| sebsebseb | bigboss__: I have a little trick up my sleeve that might get round your issue though | 02:58 |
| fccf | !ask | DROBSAN420 | 02:58 |
| ubottu | DROBSAN420: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 02:58 |
| piasdom_ | what do i use to connect to my conputer at work ? | 02:58 |
| DROBSAN420 | my bars have vanished. the bar up top for time and whatnot is gone. the bar below with the desktop switcher is gone | 02:58 |
| bigboss__ | sebsebseb, talk about that trik :D | 02:58 |
| piasdom_ | hi fccf | 02:59 |
| edbian | piasdom_, IS it a linux computer at work and a linux computer at home? | 02:59 |
| yvonne | okay i have a folder on my ddesktop | 02:59 |
| fccf | piasdom_ what type of computer at work? Gui OR cli | 02:59 |
| cabrey | yvonne, switch to the wireless network drivers window | 02:59 |
| yvonne | i mean my uDesktop | 02:59 |
| piasdom_ | edbian: yes | 02:59 |
| piasdom_ | fccf: not sure | 02:59 |
| cabrey | then click install new driver | 02:59 |
| yvonne | how do i do that? | 02:59 |
| sebsebseb | bigboss__: well the closed source version of Virtualbox from the website http://www.virtualbox.org has USB support unlike the open source one, and I assume your printer is a USB device, and so you can probably see where I am going | 02:59 |
| matthewjames | how is everyone? | 02:59 |
| darlek | had my first real safe-upgrade of jaunty today. I took down evolution and it took down a whole bunch of *-dbg(debug) programs with it. This in turn saved 200MB of space. Anything else that is big and useless? | 02:59 |
| ratzes | how do i undo all theme information stored? | 03:00 |
| === fish is now known as Guest30936 | ||
| GNICK | lol | 03:00 |
| fccf | piasdom_: do you want to connect to the work computer with a GUI or command line? | 03:00 |
| Qwell | sebsebseb: I'll simplify my point. I disagree that it's "people like yvonne" that need to be convinced. Look at how the conversation is unfolding. It isn't hard when people *are eager* to get something working. | 03:00 |
| TomTommy | how can I totally disable firewall, as firewall keeps blocking my SIP account and wont allow port 5060 | 03:00 |
| bigboss__ | mmm so u mean to create a virtual 32bit machine and install my printer on it? | 03:00 |
| sebsebseb | bigboss__: Linux distro in 32bit? or Windows or whatever, and will the printer work with a vm I think so | 03:00 |
| === Guest30936 is now known as fishexe | ||
| piasdom_ | fccf:GUI please | 03:00 |
| Forestbear | hey guys what's faster, a USB 2.0 connected to a modem, or a 100mbps ethernet cable attached to a router connected to that modem (assuming the router speed is irrelevant)? | 03:00 |
| Qwell | sebsebseb: this stuff isn't hard, even for "newbies" | 03:00 |
| edbian | piasdom_, SSH you have to install a package on the server (computer to be connected into) but the client already has it's package by default and you need to figure out a route right to your work computer (through port forwarding and a public IP) | 03:00 |
| GNICK | I like how the evolution mail icon looks | 03:00 |
| yvonne | verrrrrrrry true Q | 03:00 |
| yvonne | lol | 03:00 |
| cabrey | yvonne, switch to the "Wireless Network Drivers" window | 03:00 |
| === nicolas_ is now known as Guest43931 | ||
| minimec | sebsebseb: Yeah... Always the same with ndiswrapper. You often need a script and cabextract to fetch the firmware file... | 03:00 |
| bigboss__ | sebsebseb, i was wondweing about use ia32-libs, do you think that could it do something? | 03:00 |
| === fishexe is now known as darthaddison | ||
| piasdom_ | edbian: i know th ip | 03:01 |
| sebsebseb | bigboss__: maybe to be honest, I haven't even set up a printer with Linux yet | 03:01 |
| yvonne | do u mean windows wireless drivfers? | 03:01 |
| matthewjames | Has anyone tried the media center distro of ubuntu? | 03:01 |
| ctmjr | DROBSAN420, run this in terminal then restartx rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel | 03:01 |
| edbian | piasdom_, Is your work computer the only computer on that IP or is there a network connected to it? | 03:01 |
| TomTommy | how can I totally disable firewall, as firewall keeps blocking my SIP account and wont allow port 5060 | 03:01 |
| sebsebseb | yvonne: with Ndiswraper you will use the inf file from the Windows driver | 03:01 |
| cabrey | yvonne, yes open up System > Administration > Windows Wireless Drivers | 03:01 |
| bigboss__ | good :D xD sebsebseb ok, but have u ever install 32bit drivers on a 64 machine? | 03:01 |
| edbian | piasdom_, Are you sure it is the public ip?? | 03:01 |
| fccf | piasdom_: you will need vnc enabled on the work computer - you will use port 5900 | 03:01 |
| yvonne | okay im there | 03:02 |
| darlek | TomTommy, sudo /etc/init.d/whatever stop | 03:02 |
| sebsebseb | bigboss__: not done that either, but I know that 32bit sofware normal software can run on a 64bit OS | 03:02 |
| pik} | can anyone help me with samba? i cant write to the samba shared folder. for example create folders. writeable is activated in the samba-config | 03:02 |
| cabrey | yvonne, click Install New Driver | 03:02 |
| TomTommy | darlek: what "whatever"? | 03:02 |
| piasdom_ | edbian: it's the network...i can connect in winXP but not sure in ubuntu 8.04 | 03:02 |
| edbian | piasdom_, VNC forwards your whole desktop and is pitiful over the internet SSH is cli only FYI | 03:02 |
| Forestbear | matthewjames: yes i'm using "ubuntu studio" right now if that's what you mean | 03:02 |
| darlek | TomTommy, whatever the program is called! | 03:02 |
| jamiejackson | when your system is booting up and all that stuff scrolls by, what log is that captured in? | 03:02 |
| TomTommy | darlek: dont troll pls | 03:02 |
| bigboss__ | sebsebseb, yeah, i knew i can u se ia32-libs to make it works, but if i try to install the debian package, it tells me "Error_ wrong architecture" | 03:02 |
| yvonne | okay and install the inf fil,e? | 03:02 |
| cabrey | jamiejackson, dmesg | 03:02 |
| sebsebseb | Qwell: if people are willing to learn they can do Ubuntu stuff, or other Linux distro stuff even, but most let's call them average consumers, will just give up and say I am going back to Windows, and then they do. | 03:03 |
| darlek | ?? | 03:03 |
| edbian | piasdom_, How do you connect view winXP? | 03:03 |
| TomTommy | darlek: i want to stop the firewall | 03:03 |
| cabrey | yvonne, yes click the location button and then navigate to your desktop, into the folder you downloaded and then select the .inf file | 03:03 |
| Qwell | sebsebseb: I wouldn't even use the word "learn". "effort" maybe? | 03:03 |
| piasdom_ | edbian: by connect wizard | 03:03 |
| darlek | TomTommy, right. so whatever the name of the firewall is, that command will stop it then won't it | 03:03 |
| TomTommy | anyone using x-lite on Ubuntu? | 03:03 |
| jamiejackson | thx, cabrey | 03:03 |

| TomTommy | darlek: are you drunk dude? lol | 03:03 |
| edbian | piasdom_, What is the location of the server? | 03:03 |
| cdavis | I thought I had seen a new floor plan software effort for ubuntu but cannot find it now, does anyone know the name of some active project? | 03:04 |
| fccf | piasdom_: goto application>internet>remote desktop viewer | 03:04 |
| buttons840 | in ubuntu, how can i release and renew a dhcp ip address? | 03:04 |
| piasdom_ | edbian: but it connects to the win computer...not the linux | 03:04 |
| Forestbear | spinkx8565: sometimes when I try that with too many windows open it doesn't work, try closing some | 03:04 |
| edbian | piasdom_, Are they physically different machines? | 03:04 |
| DROBSAN420 | the restartx rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel did not work in terminal | 03:04 |
| Forestbear | buttons840: the ifup and ifdown commands | 03:04 |
| DROBSAN420 | said command was not found | 03:04 |
| Crshman | My systems' serial ports are located at /dev/ttySX, where is my parallel port in /dev? | 03:04 |
| ctmjr | Spinx8565, you need to install the graphic drivers for your card | 03:04 |
| edbian | piasdom_, Are you connecting over the internet? Or are both of these computer on the same network (at work)? | 03:04 |
| piasdom_ | edbian: yes two computers | 03:05 |
| TomTommy | is there any SIP softphone for Ubuntu besides Ekiga.. I need codec iLBC | 03:05 |
| cabrey | TomTommy, Skype | 03:05 |
| yvonne | okay it says hardware present... now what next | 03:05 |
| Spinx8565 | ctmjr: How do I find out what I have? and then install? | 03:05 |
| Qwell | Skype isn't SIP | 03:05 |
| piasdom_ | edbian: i have two computers at work | 03:05 |
| edbian | ooo | 03:05 |
| TomTommy | cabrey: skype isnt SIP noob lol | 03:05 |
| Spinx8565 | ctmjr: I think it's an intel onboard | 03:05 |
| TomTommy | cabrey: :P | 03:05 |
| sebsebseb | Qwell: well most people just want a computer to work and that's that, we are off topic by the way | 03:05 |
| edbian | piasdom_, On the server install openssh-server | 03:06 |
| cabrey | yvonne, open a terminal | 03:06 |
| sebsebseb | Qwell: most computer users I should say, not everyone has a computer even | 03:06 |
| elad_ | How do I see whether I'm using a 32 or 64 bit os? | 03:06 |
| ctmjr | DROBSAN420, just this rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel then restart computer | 03:06 |

| ratzes | how do i completely go back to the default theme information? | 03:06 |
| sebsebseb | !release | elad_ | 03:06 |
| ubottu | elad_: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 03:06 |
| yvonne | okay go ahead.... | 03:06 |
| piasdom_ | edbian: i'm at home now | 03:06 |
| sebsebseb | !version | elad_ | 03:06 |
| ubottu | elad_: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy <package> » | 03:06 |
| cabrey | yvonne, type exactly this: lsmod | grep ndis | 03:06 |
| Crshman | is my parallel port /dev/lp0? | 03:06 |
| TomTommy | this is nuts... Ubuntu have failed here.. cant even setup my SIP voip account, which takes me 1 mins on Vista to do :P | 03:07 |
| cabrey | yvonne, is there any output? | 03:07 |
| elad_ | Yeah, but how do I know if it's 32 or 64 bit? | 03:07 |
| fccf | piasdom_: you said you can connect to your win machine at work - is there a port forwarded for the linux machine | 03:07 |
| darlek | elad, either that or uname -a | 03:07 |
| ctmjr | Spinx8565, open system/adminastration then the hardware drivers | 03:07 |
| edbian | piasdom_, You will need to download that package on the server then on the client run "ssh user@ipofserver" | 03:07 |
| Qwell | sebsebseb: I can agree with that, except I would say "but, there isn't anything that will 'just work'". And you're right - OT. Last comment on the matter. :p | 03:07 |

| yvonne | usbcore 146412 3 ndiswrapper,uhci_hcd | 03:07 |

| TomTommy | cabrey: you are just upset cause you made a fool of yourself suggesting skype when it doesnt even support SIP LOL | 03:08 |
| Spinx8565 | ctmjr: no video card drivers listed | 03:08 |

| darlek | TomTommy, no one is ever the fool to try to help. | 03:08 |
| edbian | piasdom_, You need to set up the server to accept SSH connections before you can SSH into it. | 03:08 |
| pik} | can anyone help me with samba? i cant write to the samba shared folder. for example create folders. writeable is activated in the samba-config | 03:08 |

| yvonne | thannnnk u 4 all the help....... i really mean it | 03:15 |
| sebsebseb | elky: your comment made him pm me something silly | 03:16 |
| Vlet | TomTommy: have you installed any additional firewall software, or are you running on vanilla-ish ubuntu? | 03:16 |
| bigboss__ | sebsebseb, ther's any way in linux to extract files that are on ane .exe? cause in windows i know how but i havent windows | 03:16 |

| piasdom_ | fccf:later and THANKS | 03:17 |
| cryptide | bigboss__: you can try wine... but good luck with that pos | 03:17 |
| ramish | sory its my question it's very stupid how a very stupid bird, but i have ubuntu and i'like it:P | 03:17 |
| Qwell | TomTommy: /whois me - consider how many times I've configured x-lite. When I tell you your configuration is wrong, there is a reason for it. | 03:17 |
| elky | TomTommy, sebsebseb says you PM'd him something. what did you PM him? | 03:17 |
| piasdom_ | edbian: later and THANKS | 03:17 |
| TomTommy | elky: I said to sebastien we were asked to STOP, baing naughty | 03:17 |
| TomTommy | elky: why? | 03:17 |
| bigboss__ | cryptide... but if i install a printer on wine will it works on ubuntu? | 03:17 |
| Spinx8565 | ctmjr: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) | 03:17 |
| Qwell | It is not a firewall issue. It is telling you that because you are behind NAT. This is normal. | 03:17 |
| sebsebseb | elky: lol! you were told to STOP :) | 03:17 |
| yvonne | ill stop y time to time just to say high........ | 03:17 |
| cryptide | bigboss__: uh wtf are you doing? | 03:17 |
| sebsebseb | elky: naughty boy.. the OPS are angry with you now | 03:17 |
| Vlet | Everyone please take the trolling to #troll | 03:17 |
| elky | TomTommy, that was not necessary. pleae do not to it again. | 03:17 |
| bigboss__ | i'm trying to install a printer that have no linux drivers xD | 03:18 |
| TomTommy | elky: ok | 03:18 |
| yvonne | now im going to sleep got work.. | 03:18 |
| Acorn | I just installed a java webstart program, how to I make it appear on my applications menu? (it made a .desktop file on my desktop) | 03:18 |
| cryptide | bigboss__: uh good luck with that.. | 03:18 |
| yvonne | thanks again... | 03:18 |
| bigboss__ | have u any idea 4 helpin me cryptide ? | 03:18 |
| Vlet | TomTommy: what did you install? gfw? | 03:18 |
| ramish | cabrey sorry and fccf sorry:P | 03:18 |
| cryptide | bigboss__: what kinda printer is it? | 03:19 |
| TomTommy | Vlet: yes. gfw, the firewall and then I added port 5060 for my SIP. but it made no difference.. firewall still blocking | 03:19 |
| cabrey | ramish, for what? | 03:19 |
| minimec | bigboss__: do we know what sort of printer you have? ;) | 03:19 |
| bigboss__ | cryptide, lbp-3010... the problem is that i can find only 32bit drivers, and i have a 64bit | 03:19 |
| TomTommy | Vlet: any suggestions? | 03:19 |
| bigboss__ | *canon lbp-3010 | 03:19 |
| cryptide | bigboss__: get a new printer | 03:19 |
| elky | TomTommy, so if you could please stop inciting him, it'd make my life easier. | 03:19 |
| bigboss__ | i know it but... this one is new | 03:19 |
| minimec | bigboss__: 64bit is not my playground... | 03:20 |
| TomTommy | elky: ok understood | 03:20 |
| Vlet | TomTommy: try removing the package and see if it works. Ubuntu doesn't need aditional firewall software on its own. The linux network stack essentially IS a firewall | 03:20 |
| bigboss__ | minimec, i see that is the playground of few people :D | 03:20 |
| ramish | help? cabrey? | 03:20 |
| fccf | Acorn: goto system >prefrences>main menu - add from there | 03:20 |
| Spinx8565 | ctmjr: brb, just in case you were going to respond, thanks./ | 03:20 |
| Qwell | TomTommy: If you would listen to what I am telling you, you can avoid this whole mess. It is NOT an Ubuntu firewall issue. | 03:20 |
| cabrey | ramish, whats the problem? | 03:20 |
| ramish | i don't speak english | 03:20 |
| minimec | bigboss__: indeed... | 03:20 |
| ramish | sorry | 03:20 |
| TomTommy | Vlet: so how do I tell the firewall to allow x-lite and port 5060? Before I even installed a firewall gui, it was blocking port 5060 | 03:21 |

| ratzes | I have some theme garbage left over and it wont go away, does anyone know how to fix this? | 03:23 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, windows drivers come in the form of *.sys | 03:23 |
| Qwell | TomTommy: yvonne, who has never used Linux got wireless working in 1/10th the time you've been here. Think about that. | 03:23 |

| ratzes | I'm trying to start again from scratch | 03:23 |
| bigboss__ | minimec, i just found into the 32bit drivers archive, a folder with some files/folder and a "Makefile" | 03:24 |
| bigboss__ | do you think it can help me? | 03:24 |
| ratzes | i just installed ubuntu on my girlfriends computer and when i installed this new theme, it looks perfect | 03:24 |
| ratzes | but when i install it, it doesnt look right | 03:24 |
| TomTommy | yvonne isnt using x-lite though | 03:24 |
| ratzes | i think i have a ton of left over information somewhere | 03:24 |
| TomTommy | mu wireless works too | 03:24 |

| cabrey | chronographer, what happens when you try to manually mount it? | 03:26 |
| ratzes | should i just delete gconfd files? to get rid of left over theme information, i can't find this anywhere online. Most people hate the default ubuntu theme, so a search for default ubuntu theme gives nothing | 03:26 |
| chronographer | it is not at /dev/sde so I can't | 03:26 |

| jamiejackson | there's a particularly good (wiki, i think) article for ubuntu that gets updated with each release, and it covers lots of different topics on one page. i think it's an official ubuntu page, i can never find it when i look for it, i just stumble on it sometimes. i know this is vague, but anybody happen to know what i'm talking about? | 03:27 |

| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 03:39 |
| fccf | Acorn: the client runs in java web start | 03:39 |
| Acorn | sebboh: that sounds good. is that better than just running the webstart file each time? | 03:39 |
| Acorn | and where does java web start save its files? | 03:39 |
| TomTommy | Vlet: still stuck on "discovering firewall" | 03:40 |
| Sebboh | Acorn, better? That's up to you. Visiting the site and grabbing the jnlp is fine, using a desktop shortcut is fine, using the webstart app cache interface is fine. | 03:40 |
| ^cheeky | sebsebseb, iam trying to find a good php ide, i installed komodo but when i point it to my php.ini fie for it to work with php ... it still says its not working | 03:40 |
| chronographer | Flannel: WHO said what about pigs? | 03:40 |
| sebsebseb | !info phpmyadmin | 03:40 |
| ubottu | phpmyadmin (source: phpmyadmin): MySQL web administration tool. In component universe, is extra. Version 4:3.1.2-1 (jaunty), package size 3527 kB, installed size 13132 kB | 03:40 |
| Flannel | chronographer: Mhmm. | 03:40 |
| chronographer | no jk. It wax not plugged in properly (the IDE connector inside the enclosure) | 03:40 |
| sebsebseb | ^cheeky: that's the kind of thing your looking for maybe? | 03:40 |
| Sebboh | Acorn, uhm, the location of the cached apps should be listed in the webstart control panel thing. | 03:40 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, the drivers, did they come in debs? | 03:40 |
| chronographer | *was | 03:40 |
| Flannel | ^cheeky: You probably don't need to point it to your php.ini. I have no idea how it works, but that doesn't make much sense. | 03:41 |
| ^cheeky | no actually i just use the mysql command line tool | 03:41 |
| bigboss__ | cabrey, as i say before the drivers arfe on 32bit, my machine is 64. So i make install those files | 03:41 |
| bigboss__ | *others files | 03:41 |
| sebsebseb | ^cheeky: or not, not done anything with LAMP for over a year, and it was only very basic on home computer before | 03:41 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, oh that's why, you can have 32 bit drivers on a 64 machine | 03:41 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, nothing you can do about that | 03:42 |
| bigboss__ | cabrey, i know it, that's why i didnt use the debian package | 03:42 |
| bigboss__ | but the surce code. I "make gen" it and i "make install" it | 03:42 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, oh they provide the source? | 03:42 |
| Sebboh | Acorn, "javaws -viewer" .. that should be all you need, lemme know if it doesn't do whatever you need. | 03:42 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, ok let me look i have the software | 03:42 |
| mercutio22 | I am trying to share a folder in samba. I can't do it. Maybe the router is blocking communication. Which port does samba use? | 03:42 |
| bigboss__ | cabrey, do you want the link of the file that i download? | 03:43 |
| bigboss__ | uff is 4.43am here... i need to do it xD | 03:43 |
| elad | I added "PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin; export PATH" to my .bashrc. I created a script, ~/bin/gedit, that only calls "gedit". However, when I launch it, I get an infinite loop. Why? Should it first resolve to whatever's in the PATH? | 03:43 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, I found it | 03:43 |
| bigboss__ | great! | 03:43 |
| elad | (It only calls "gedit &", actually.) | 03:43 |

| ratzes | how do i purge old desktop theme information? | 03:43 |
| elad | brb | 03:44 |
| Technoviking | TomTommy: make a launchpad account, then type ubuntu-bug ekiga in a terminal | 03:44 |
| Acorn | sebboh: ok, so I have the desktop file again, should i put that in /usr/local/share/applications? | 03:44 |
| TomTommy | Technoviking: ok ty | 03:44 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, what was the model again? | 03:44 |

| Sebboh | Acorn, I don't know what to do with the .desktop file. Sounds like something a window manager/desktop environment uses. I don't know much about those, only Java. | 03:47 |
| ratzes | i did a fresh install of ubuntu on my gf's computer and the highlight colors are what they should be | 03:47 |

| bastid_raZor | eladcan i PM you with the solution for adding ~/bin to your path? | 03:48 |
| sebsebseb | ^cheeky: ok good luck | 03:48 |
| minimec | bigboss__: I guess the 3010 is the 'fallower of 3000. I would try that driver. that should work. | 03:48 |
| darlek | Acorn, the .desktop file only runs the main program file. If you can find the file probably in a /bin folder you can recreate the link. type whereis programname to narrow down the location | 03:48 |
| Acorn | sebboh: I looked at the properties and it had a command with a path to the javaws cache for the program, so I just stuck that path into the main menu editor | 03:48 |
| Cosmo1 | a friend said he knew of one but could not find his bookmark for it | 03:49 |
| cabrey | minimec, thats what i was thinking | 03:49 |
| bigboss__ | minimec, ok i'll try and i'll say u how will it go | 03:49 |
| ratzes | can i just delete some theme information to reset it back to it to when it was a fresh install? | 03:49 |
| ratzes | i heard of someone mentioning gconfd | 03:49 |
| ratzes | or gtkrc | 03:49 |
| Acorn | darlek: can I just use the path that's in the .desktop file? | 03:49 |
| ratzes | but i dont want to just go ahead and delete them | 03:49 |
| fccf | Acorn: try downloading the .jnlp file and running javawm filename.jlnp | 03:49 |
| darlek | Acorn, I don't see why you need to add to path, since the shortcut is running from a specified location. | 03:50 |
| jon5001 | Hello. I am having trouble connecting to my wireless network and reaching another pc on the network. I had this working before but somehow it has stopped. Cofiguration is: laptop running ubuntu, connects to wireless router. desktop running vista and connected by wire to router. from ubuntu machine i am able to get to the router and the internet, but cannot see local pc on network | 03:50 |
| darlek | Acorn, if you know where in the cache the main file is, then you can remake a shortcut or make a menu item. It isn't in the menu already? Might be in a different menu group | 03:51 |
| ratzes | what kind of router are you using? | 03:51 |
| sebsebseb | jon5001: maybe not that useful, but | 03:51 |

| Kyothine | is there anyone who can help me with WUBI? sorry im a newb at this. | 04:04 |
| elad | IRSSI - small screen. I only saw ubottu was talking to me. Didn't see you triggering it, sebsebseb. | 04:04 |
| sebsebseb | Kyothine: Wubi oh no! | 04:04 |
| elad | So, sebsebseb, could you please help me out? | 04:04 |
| sebsebseb | Kyothine: don't use Wubi, partition your hard disk instead :) | 04:04 |
| ratzes | cabrey: even if i return to the default theme, its still there? | 04:04 |
| vopen2 | cabrey: dpkg -c works! thanks. i found the packages in /var/cache/apt/archives | 04:05 |
| buntuNull | howto force mount ext3 ? | 04:05 |
| Kyothine | i only used it on my old desktop | 04:05 |
| fccf | Firefishe: if you log out and do nothing it will log back in automatically | 04:05 |
| minimec | elad: Do you have a ATI graphics adapter? | 04:05 |
| Kyothine | it wouldn't work any other way | 04:05 |
| gasquetfan | darlek: can I talk to you in private chat if you don't mind... its quite confusing in mains.. | 04:05 |
| sebsebseb | Kyothine: Wubi can give you weird issues and stuff | 04:05 |
| elad | No. NVIDIA. | 04:05 |
| elad | It was working fine up until now. | 04:05 |
| Kyothine | does it do anything with networking in particular? | 04:05 |
| elad | I even rebooted after upgrading to 9.04, and all was well. | 04:05 |
| cabrey | ratzes, have you tried to reinstall your theme? | 04:05 |
| Firefishe | fccf: Will that have enabled the nvidia kernel module? | 04:05 |
| ratzes | cabrey: yes | 04:05 |
| sebsebseb | !xorg | elad | 04:05 |
| ubottu | elad: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 04:05 |
| elad | Then, I had a little trouble with my .bashrc, and I reverted it to whatever it was before, and rebooted. Then, I go this problem. | 04:05 |
| ratzes | cabrey: the new theme is using the apperance menu app, the old one was using epidermis | 04:06 |
| buntuNull | Ubuntu Deleted My Files! | 04:06 |
| elad | sebsebseb: I didn't change resolution or anything similar prior to the problem manifesting. | 04:06 |
| fccf | Firefishe: probably not ... you just want to try things before you do a real install? | 04:06 |
| buntuNull | with that check ext3 things | 04:06 |
| buntuNull | on bootup | 04:06 |
| sebsebseb | Kyothine: no it's a hack for Windows, it put's it inside Windows in a file, and does the boot loader stuff | 04:06 |
| buntuNull | not everything is los | 04:06 |
| cabrey | !enter | buntuNull | 04:06 |
| ubottu | buntuNull: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 04:06 |
| buntuNull | but it is in lost&found | 04:06 |
| sebsebseb | elad: which graphics card? | 04:07 |
| sebsebseb | elad: also can you can run commands still? | 04:07 |
| Kyothine | so then i probably shouldn't use wubi for any /good/ computers, right? | 04:07 |
| elad | NVIDIA, 8800. | 04:07 |
| bigboss__ | cabrey, i just gived a test print page put is "elaborating" datas from 2 minutes... it's strange right? | 04:07 |
| sebsebseb | Kyothine: indeed | 04:07 |
| elad | sebsebseb? | 04:07 |
| Kyothine | alright, thakns | 04:07 |
| etk | if anyone has an idea how to get my sound from the firewire to the crative labs SB audigy card heres my lspci -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/189407/ | 04:07 |
| sebsebseb | Kyothine: even your old one, if you put the correct distro on | 04:07 |
| elad | The problem appears to be with the session, not with X. | 04:07 |
| sebsebseb | Kyothine: it would be so much better than Wubi | 04:07 |
| snowrichard | elad have you used sudo to run an X app? I did that and had to delete the .ICE* (authority file or something like that) | 04:07 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, it usually doesn't take 2 minutes | 04:07 |
| Kyothine | k, ill burn a cd. thanks | 04:08 |
| sebsebseb | elad: nevermind I am not sure | 04:08 |
| bigboss__ | cabrey, i know xD | 04:08 |
| elad | snowrichard: I don't know how to do that. | 04:08 |
| Firefishe | fccf: the laptop I'm trying 9.04 out on tonight--right now--has 8.10 working nicely. I can always upgrade via synaptic's update manager(my preferred manager for either gnome or kde, period!) and that's probably easier on an already installed system. I just want to test the nividia driver with Jaunty. | 04:08 |
| buntuNull | Is ubuntu broken?? when I go into the directoryy lost&found it does not show up anything. It tells me it cannot show me that.. but on windows vista with ex2fsd tool it shows me the contents in lost&found.. | 04:08 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, use sudo | 04:08 |
| Firefishe | fccf: nvidia, rather. | 04:08 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: I used sudo | 04:08 |
| saprophyte | i know my laptop has ati radeon graphics how can I tell what chipset and driver to download? Using jaunty | 04:09 |
| sebsebseb | !ati | 04:09 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 04:09 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, delete it I guess and try 3010 this time | 04:09 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, and what is the exact error message | 04:09 |
| BeatlesFan | saprophyte, you don't need to download a chipset.. the card has one already | 04:09 |
| bigboss__ | cabrey, u mean itno the string that i pasted before? | 04:09 |
| fccf | Firefishe: try a logout see what happens, got an extra harddrive laying around install 9.04 on that to test w/o upgrading | 04:09 |
| BeatlesFan | and a chipset can not be downloaded.. it refers to hardware | 04:10 |
| elad | So, I'm just fucked? So much for my linux adventure? | 04:10 |
| sebsebseb | !language | elad | 04:10 |
| ubottu | elad: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 04:10 |
| cabrey | bigboss__, yea instead of 3000 try 3010 | 04:10 |
| bigboss__ | ok | 04:10 |
| minimec | elad: hmmm... Why don't you login in a console and rename .bashrc to .bashrc.old. Then start the xserver again and login. If that was the only thing you changed... | 04:10 |
| Firefishe | fccf: Well, the extra hard drive isn't viable, I don't have one. | 04:10 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: This works without the -o force, but it doesn't show me stuff in lost&found instead it tells me, "Cannot open director lost&found" when I open the directory -> sudo mount -o force /dev/sdc1 /mnt | 04:10 |
| Firefishe | fccf: but it can't hurt to log out and see what happens. | 04:10 |
| _2eXtreme | guys ive been wanting to give back to the community for a while now, and i was wondering if anyone could suggest a project for me to work on, say in development. my main strengths lay in java, but id be willing to give anything a try... | 04:10 |
| Firefishe | fccf: ah, experimentation, muahahahah ;) | 04:10 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, is your "lost" data on the main (system) drive or an additional drive? | 04:11 |
| fccf | Firefishe: sounds like evil fun | 04:11 |
| sebsebseb | !contribute | _2eXtreme | 04:11 |
| ubottu | _2eXtreme: To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate | 04:11 |
| darlek | anyone, what's the factoid for resetting gnome, metacity etc, it details deleting the directories etc. | 04:11 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: in additional drive | 04:11 |
| elad | minimec: I tried that, and it did me no good. | 04:11 |
| elad | What's the new alt-ctrl-backspace in 9.04, btw? | 04:11 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: it is ext3 formatted | 04:11 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, have you run fsck on it? | 04:11 |
| BeatlesFan | !elaborate | darlek | 04:12 |
| sebsebseb | darlek: don't think there is one | 04:12 |
| ubottu | darlek: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 04:12 |
| coz_ | elad, there is no new one | 04:12 |
| bigboss__ | cabrey, at list now when i try to print it says an error xD | 04:12 |
| elad | brb | 04:12 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: and contains important data, I've to write some notes, I've got a seminar on AI in some hours.. :( | 04:12 |
| GNICK | dontzap | 04:12 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: fsc deleted my data^^^and put it into lost+found | 04:12 |
| coz_ | elad, the corrrect way is either log off or crlg+alt+F1 then login then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 04:12 |
| coz_ | or kdm restart | 04:13 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, no it did not, if there was something wrong with the FS, then it actually recovered it for you | 04:13 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: I cannot risk to delete it forever. the data is there I could open it up on windows | 04:13 |
| BeatlesFan | buntunull, if it put it into lost*found it didn't delete it , did it | 04:13 |
| darlek | !dontzap |elad | 04:13 |
| ubottu | elad: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 04:13 |
| jamiejackson | what's the trick to being able to resolve my home network's host names (without something manual on every machine, like /etc/hosts) | 04:13 |
| Cosmo1 | anyone know of a linux program that will connect to a ventrilo server , I have been fighting with vent for 2 days to try to get it to work in wine and no luck | 04:13 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, then use your windows machine, copy the important data over and we can try to fix this without worrying | 04:13 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: The thing is, I could open it up on windows with ext2fsd, but not on linux which is really strange | 04:14 |
| fccf | Cosmo1: vintrilo is a proprietry protocol.. you won;t get it to work | 04:14 |
| Firefishe | fccf: Well, I logged out, it dropped me to a terminal. All I had to do was type: startx .. and all was well. :) Seems to be working. | 04:14 |
| fccf | Firefishe: wanna test nvidia .. glxgears | 04:15 |
| Firefishe | fccf: text and overall look is sharper. | 04:15 |
| Firefishe | fccf: ah yes | 04:15 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: isn't it possible on ubuntu to access the lost+found directory ? | 04:15 |
| Firefishe | fccf: the gears :) | 04:15 |
| Firefishe | thank you | 04:15 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: I dislike booting up vista. do not like it, takes too long to bootup etc. | 04:15 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, just boot it up so that we can make sure the important data is safe | 04:16 |
| jamiejackson | my question answered here: http://www.poromenos.org/node/53 | 04:16 |
| Firefishe | fccf: it works | 04:16 |
| Firefishe | fccf: Now my more important consideration is whether an upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 should proceed. | 04:17 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: I aggree :/ I will copy all my data to my other 1tb ext drive and then copy it back on the formated external drive | 04:17 |
| elad | I've just discovered the oddest thing. When I log in as my normal user - elad - I can't see anything with ls. It's as though my home directory were empty. But when I "sudo su", then ls, I see everything's still there! What the hell?! BTW, I'm without a GUI. Problems might be related. Help? | 04:17 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, that would be a good idea :) | 04:18 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: Shall I should fomat it fat32 or ext3 ? | 04:18 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, which drive? | 04:18 |
| FoxBlitzz | elad: Erratic file permissions? | 04:18 |
| sebsebseb | !ntfs | buntuNull | 04:18 |
| ubottu | buntuNull: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 04:18 |
| elad | Never mind, problem solved. | 04:18 |
| sebsebseb | !ext3 | buntuNull | 04:19 |
| ubottu | buntuNull: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 04:19 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: the external drive with my important data, after copying it to another external drive | 04:19 |
| sebsebseb | buntuNull: no need to use Fat32 anymore when it comes to Linux | 04:19 |
| sebsebseb | buntuNull: and Windows | 04:19 |
| elad | Is it normal for ~/bin to be the very first thing in my $PATH? | 04:19 |
| Orbixx | How can I stop UDP packets aimed towards port 80 from affecting Apache? | 04:19 |
| buntuNull | it is important to access my disk on windows / linux | 04:19 |
| sebsebseb | buntuNull: you can use NTFS, and Ubuntu can read and write to it no problem, as long as Windows shut it down properly | 04:19 |
| cabrey | buntuNull, oh you mean after you copy all the data over temporarily, you want to reformat the original drive? | 04:19 |
| buntuNull | cabrey: yes | 04:20 |
| Cosmo1 | fccf: I see people on the ubuntu forums that have gotten it to work in wine, and a friend has seen a linux program that is supposed to work but he cannot find his bookmark for it | 04:20 |
| fccf | Firefishe: thats up to you... Personally ill stick with my LTS | 04:20 |
| darlek | elad, the path is there to look for files that are commonly run. looking in a bin folder is quite normal | 04:20 |
| buntuNull | sebsebseb: I will never ever trust NTFS again it deleted 320GB Data with chkdsk, unrecoverable :/ | 04:20 |
| buntuNull | I wish zfs was here!!!! | 04:21 |
| fccf | Cosmo1: try #winehq for help with wine- we support ubuntu here and not commercial sw | 04:21 |
| sebsebseb | buntuNull: well NTFS is better than Fat32, however Ext3 is better than both :) | 04:21 |
| elad | Never mind, problem solved. | 04:21 |
| buntuNull | oh man the sun is rising up... not again. | 04:21 |
| xnox` | the intel update from x-org edgers PPA was wonderful today. My desktop is the fastest it ever was. | 04:21 |
| Firefishe | fccf: Is 8.10 an LTS? Or 9.04? | 04:21 |
| sebsebseb | buntuNull: where you from? | 04:21 |
| buntuNull | got to go, thank you cabrey and all others | 04:21 |
| cabrey | Firefishe, 8.04 is LTS | 04:21 |
| buntuNull | sebsebseb: DE | 04:22 |
| fccf | !LTS | Firefishe | 04:22 |
| ubottu | Firefishe: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Herron 8.04) | 04:22 |
| xnox` | I'm using rc8 kernel and my wifi stopped working. Any hints on how should be troubleshooting it? | 04:22 |
| sebsebseb | buntuNull: Germeny ok | 04:22 |
| elad | Other question: Is it normal for ~/bin to be the very first thing in my $PATH? | 04:22 |
| cabrey | xnox`, you're using a developmental kernel | 04:22 |
| BeatlesFan | elad, probably doesn't matter | 04:22 |
| cabrey | xnox`, really not supported here | 04:22 |
| EEMPHASISS | fccf: finally: couldn't find the file normally, instead searched for the font name it looked like: the file is .gtkrc-2.0 & the first comment line reads "# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT" | 04:22 |
| xnox` | cabrey: ok sorry | 04:22 |
| darlek | elad...yes.. next question. why are you worried about this? | 04:23 |
| elad | BeatlesFan: What I'm worried about is that I didn't put it there. What determines the PATH to begin with? | 04:23 |
| xnox` | cabrey: and ubuntu+1 will not support it either cause i'm not running full karmic? | 04:23 |
| Linuz2009 | I'm unable to upgrade Linux generic | 04:23 |
| BeatlesFan | elad: it's a default, you can add directories to it | 04:23 |
| darlek | elad...linux uses path to organize where files are found. | 04:23 |
| cabrey | xnox`, is that a channel for karmic? | 04:23 |
| elad | What determines the PATH? I know how to tweak it with .bashrc, but what defines it to begin with? | 04:23 |
| sebsebseb | !9.10 | cabrey | 04:23 |
| ubottu | cabrey: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 04:23 |
| fccf | EEMPHASISS: not sure ... don't know much bout gtk configs | 04:23 |
| Firefishe | fccf, cabrey: 8.04 is a little dated for my hardware. This laptop is brand new and the graphics engine and other matters--like 802.11b/g/a and ethernet--are also recent. Since I also install backports and other weird stuff, anyway, and with little or no problems, i'm not so concerned about LTS. | 04:23 |
| cabrey | sebsebseb, thanks | 04:24 |
| sebsebseb | cabrey: np | 04:24 |
| Linuz2009 | it said that it had dependency problem | 04:24 |
| kewlburg | hi | 04:24 |
| darlek | elad... linux | 04:24 |
| cabrey | xnox`, they might support it there is that is the kernel in use in the alpha | 04:24 |
| BeatlesFan | elad: I'm not sure, I'm guessing the install script probably sets it up | 04:24 |
| elad | darlek: What part, though? | 04:24 |
| fccf | kewlburg: hello | 04:24 |
| Mob[ST]er | Hello guys ! I have ubuntu on my machine that I install with WUBI (EXCELLENT move BTW!), now I would like to access my thunderbird emails that I have with windows and /or access my ubuntu email from windows .... Kind of a thunderbird synch between Ubuntu and Windows.. Is it possible to do that? | 04:24 |
| Firefishe | fccf, cabrey: I was just wondering if 9.04 might have some usefulness over 8.10. | 04:24 |
| Linuz2009 | but the dependency program is gone | 04:24 |
| elad | And 9.04, by default, sets up what PATH? | 04:24 |
| sebsebseb | Mob[ST]er: Wubi is not an excellent thing at all | 04:24 |
| Linuz2009 | I can't find it anywhere | 04:24 |

| sebsebseb | Mob[ST]er: well it's hack for Windows, put's it in a file there, does the stuff to bootloaders, and people can get odd errors with Wubi | 04:25 |
| cabrey | bthompson, /join #ubuntu-server | 04:25 |
| Firefishe | cabrey: I'm of the opinion--based on my recent *experimentation* ;-), that the proprietary nvidia driver--180--is working nicely with this live cd. About three weeks ago, when I did a test-run with the update manager to update to Jaunty from Intrepid on this machine, the system said--at that time--the proprietary driver wasn't available. | 04:26 |
| Firefishe | cabrey: Apparently, that problem is now solved. | 04:26 |
| Orbixx | Mob[ST]er: Then there's no other proper way of doing what you need, sorry. | 04:26 |
| fccf | kewlburg: I just said hello ... do you need help with anything | 04:26 |
| BeatlesFan | firefishe, I couldn't get it to recognize my nvidia 6200 card | 04:26 |
| Mob[ST]er | Orbixx: thanks for your time | 04:26 |
| Flannel | Cosmic_Karma: We don't have anything to do with the store. You'll have to write them an email | 04:26 |
| DaRk-HiBeRnUsS62 | omg | 04:26 |
| BeatlesFan | ubuntu wouldn't even boot | 04:26 |
| Firefishe | BeatlesFan: Let me see what chipset this laptop is using. | 04:26 |
| kewlburg | fccf: ok man!!! | 04:26 |
| darlek | elad, as well as you install programs, some will also add to the path in order to be found by Ubuntu. Indexing of files is also a background job. Programs like whereis use this information | 04:26 |
| cabrey | Firefishe, nvidia seems to be fine with jaunty, it is just irritated ATI customers whose card's support was dropped and now they can't use it with 9.04 | 04:26 |
| sh4d0w | lol | 04:27 |
| cabrey | Firefishe, also, the !intel problem | 04:27 |

| shiznebit | Hi, Im currently trying to get my Ubuntu 9.04 system to Wake On Lan correctly. I have set "ethtool -s eth0 g" in a startup script. I have edited "/etc/init.d/halt" to "NETDOWN=no" . I have additionally set my NIC in "/proc/acpi/wake" to *Enabled* for both S3 and S4 states. After all this it works, BUT only for 10 seconds after going into suspend. I don't understand what else i can do. How... | 04:27 |

| Linuz2009 | does any one know how to install this package linux-headers-2.6.28-13-generic | 04:29 |
| fccf | !lol | DaRk-HiBeRnUsS62 | 04:29 |
| ubottu | DaRk-HiBeRnUsS62: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 04:29 |
| Firefishe | !intel | 04:30 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. | 04:30 |
| darlek | Linuz2009, try synaptic, as well you can use apt-cache search linux-headers--etc | 04:30 |
| Linuz2009 | let me try | 04:31 |
| darlek | Linuz2009, otherwise try kernel.org | 04:31 |
| cabrey | Linuz2009, that kernel has not been released by ubuntu updates | 04:31 |
| LightTitan | Anyone know of a good program to test the read speed of my SSD? | 04:31 |
| darlek | Linuz2009, definitely then from the kernal org site then | 04:31 |
| cabrey | LightTitan, uhh copy a hugh file from it? | 04:31 |
| pepperjack | LightTitan: sdparm? | 04:32 |
| pepperjack | not sure if you can use that for ssd | 04:32 |
| darlek | !kernel | 04:32 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 04:32 |
| ZaszZz | just installed ubuntu 9.04, clicked guest sessions to see what it does. apparently it crashes the computer and makes the operating system not load :( | 04:33 |
| ZaszZz | anyone have an idea of what to do? | 04:33 |
| Firefishe | cabrey: I don't have an intel graphics card. I have an Asus G50V-X1, and it has an nvidia PCIe card/512mb discrete vRAM. Thing is, lshw and lspci don't seem to be listing the type. Any ideas on how I can find out what I have without cracking the bottom and twelve screws to read the thing off the card? | 04:33 |
| jamiejackson | when doing sudo apt-get installs, i routinely get hung downloads, so i interrupt them, then run the install again to resume the stuck downloads. this happens so routinely that i've gotten annoyed to ask about it here. know what's going on? | 04:34 |
| === elad is now known as elad` | ||
| cabrey | Firefishe, you want the chipset? | 04:34 |
| jamiejackson | ...that i've gotten annoyed *enough* to ask about it here... | 04:34 |
| Firefishe | cabrey: Yes. | 04:34 |
| LightTitan | thanks cabrey and pepperjack | 04:34 |
| Firefishe | cabrey: wait | 04:34 |
| xnox` | jamiejackson: try installing and setting apt-cacher-ng cause that did the trick for me | 04:34 |
| Flannel | jamiejackson: Try a different mirror. | 04:35 |
| Firefishe | cabrey: Nvidia 9800M GS | 04:35 |
| cabrey | Firefishe, is this a laptop? | 04:35 |
| Firefishe | Flannel, jamiejackson: My thoughts, as well. | 04:35 |
| Firefishe | cabrey: Yes | 04:35 |
| elad` | I want "gdt a1 a2 a3" to run "gedit a1 a2 a3 &". No predetermined number of files. How do I do that? | 04:35 |
| Firefishe | cabrey: I was so hyper-focused, I forgot the information was right in front of my eyes. | 04:36 |
| jamiejackson | looks like apt-cacher-ng does the mirroring rotation for me, at a glance | 04:36 |
| darlek | elad`, look at the alias command... man alias | 04:36 |
| Firefishe | Like....the little sticker on the top of the handrest area that states: Graphics By <Logo> nvidia, GeForce 9800M GS/512MB | 04:37 |
| Firefishe | like, 'doh' ;) | 04:37 |
| jamiejackson | thx, xnox`, et al, i'll try apt-cacher-ng for a while | 04:37 |
| Firefishe | Flannel, jamiejackson: I never use the US repositories anymore. | 04:37 |
| Linuz2009 | so how do I install kernel? | 04:37 |
| Firefishe | sweden is fastest for me ;) | 04:37 |
| fccf | Firefishe: Invisible hands would be nice | 04:37 |
| Firefishe | fccf: heh, no doubt LOL | 04:37 |
| jamiejackson | okay, good to know, Firefishe | 04:37 |
| Firefishe | oops | 04:38 |
| Firefishe | sorry on the lol | 04:38 |
| Firefishe | (he's been on the 'net for nearly a decade, folks, one would think he'd have learned) | 04:38 |

| scream | Ok, I have one update available as "recommended". However, I note that there is no icon in the top right hand of my screen telling me this. I had to check manually. The feature setting you directing me to is set to let me know. Bug? | 04:42 |

| billywayne | elad`: yeah, $@ ad $* perform similar functions. | 04:48 |

| dunks0r | pepperjack: yeah, bit messy, might just buy her a cowon player and be done with it. | 04:49 |
| voss | mib, switching people doesnt work, finding people with no computer experience and training them on ubuntu....hmmm. | 04:49 |
| acr0nym | can someone explain to me while I'm awake at 5.49 in the morning???? | 04:50 |
| acr0nym | I went to bed like 3 hours ago LOL | 04:50 |
| darlek | scream, I'm afraid I just use command line to update not the notifier | 04:50 |
| Guest2222 | I adjusted ssh on one of my boxes to listen on a non-standard port. Is there any way to configure ssh on the client side so it knows that connections to certain addresses should default to something other than 22? | 04:50 |
| DigitalKiwi | i've heard you can sync ipod touch via sshfs | 04:50 |
| Linuz2009 | I'm stuck | 04:50 |
| xunil | so i just upgraded to Ubuntu 9.04, installed my video drivers for my nvidia card, and now my panels are stuck on the top of my left monitor.... and there isn't a checkbox for "Lock Panel" | 04:50 |

| Linuz2009 | Why can't I update my kernel? | 04:50 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | anyway does anyone know why my phone isnt detecting my bluetooth even though i have it set to always visible? | 04:51 |
| TwoToneSpirit | Welcome julia! | 04:51 |
| Guest2222 | Cosmo1: stick it in your xinitrc? | 04:51 |
| darlek | Cosmo1, save it as a file then run this file as a script under System Preferences Startup Applications | 04:51 |
| voss | a linux music player doesnt have to play the protected itunes but it should play everything else | 04:51 |

| gogeta | heh | 04:51 |
| gogeta | mib_14wrsk3p i would check to see if the laptops bluetooth is on | 04:52 |
| voss | notebook linux actually got me running linux on the linux on my desktop full time | 04:52 |
| gogeta | voss i got netboot and a old dell w linux | 04:52 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | DigitalKiwi: lol im getting there :P the problem i had before is i always had problems that i coudlnt solve or no one would help me solve like major problems :P | 04:53 |
| gogeta | and a xp desktop | 04:53 |
| yEOnjAE | there is who attends to DEFCON 17 now? | 04:53 |
| voss | linux works better on netbooks than it does on desktops | 04:53 |
| gogeta | mib_14wrsk3p if we dont tell we it means we dont knoe | 04:53 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | gogeta: yeah i got it connected lol im trying to see if i can get my phone to use my computer's bluetooth lol, not going well so far | 04:53 |
| gogeta | voss no | 04:53 |
| fccf | voss: so untrue | 04:53 |
| darlek | voss, netbooks use a custom kernel for the hardware. linux is easy to customize with OEM parts | 04:54 |
| owen1 | will this add user oren to group yuka - sudo usermod -a yuka oren ? | 04:54 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | but just one thing, ubuntu needs to work on its boot time, windows 7 boots a lot faster, and hibernation mode, if they can fix those two things then it'll be pretty much perfect for me | 04:54 |
| elad` | How do I do integer comparison in bash? | 04:54 |
| DigitalKiwi | first you're using ubuntu then you get addicted to tinkering and move onto greener pastures | 04:54 |
| gogeta | darlek anything is if all systems where oem like apples why you think there so rock solid | 04:54 |
| voss | im not saying it doesnt work on desktops im just saying linux on my notebook came before linux on my desktop and thats why | 04:54 |
| DigitalKiwi | <3 arch | 04:55 |
| tritium | DigitalKiwi: stay on topic, please | 04:55 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | the sad thing is windows is a lot easier to fix, at least for me, if there's somehting wrong | 04:55 |
| gogeta | voss netbooks are oem so 1 setup works on all unlike a desktop | 04:55 |
| DigitalKiwi | windows easy to fix? everything is hidden | 04:55 |
| DigitalKiwi | and spyware/adware/viruses? | 04:55 |

| dunks0r | mib_14wrsk3p: boot time in 9.04 was noticeably quicker than 8.04, never really seen the huge hangup people have with boot times, whats a extra 10 seconds | 04:56 |
| Guest2222 | SirStan: Use samba | 04:56 |
| gogeta | sirstan it should aruldy be configured | 04:56 |
| Cosmo1 | darlek: do I need to do anything special to run it as a scriptZ | 04:56 |
| shiznebit | you don't realize how much could be done with a PC until you move to Linux | 04:56 |

| SirStan | gogeta: is there some sort of "connect to smb server" thing somewhere? | 04:56 |
| gogeta | sirstan just type //your ip in windows exployer or from run | 04:56 |
| Cosmo1 | script? | 04:56 |
| DigitalKiwi | who needs boot times if you never reboot? | 04:56 |
| SirStan | gogeta: my ubuntu has windows explorer? | 04:56 |
| darlek | Cosmo1, in terminal, run chmod +x scriptname, and that will allow Ubuntu to run it when you login next time | 04:56 |
| dunks0r | DigitalKiwi, indeed! | 04:56 |
| gogeta | sirstan yoou can do it from the ubuntu file exployer to | 04:57 |
| gogeta | same command | 04:57 |
| acr0nym | you mean nautilus? | 04:57 |
| gogeta | shure | 04:57 |
| SirStan | Whats the "ubuntu file explorer" | 04:57 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | dunks0r: well see let me tell u like after grub is done, it goes to black screen for about 30 seconds and then from there another like 10 seconds till im in a workable enviroment | 04:57 |
| darlek | Cosmo1, once it sees it in the Startup Applications area, then it runs the script as if you ran it yourself, thus saving you the time ;) | 04:57 |
| gogeta | nautilus | 04:57 |
| darlek | SirStan, nautilus | 04:57 |
| acr0nym | you're welcome | 04:57 |

| dunks0r | Timboe, why? | 04:59 |
| gogeta | sirstan you gotta setup a share from eatch box you wanna do | 04:59 |
| fccf | scream try rightclicking on the top panel and add applet -- add update-notivier | 04:59 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | Timboe: yeah. it's possible, but why lol | 04:59 |

| fccf | *notifier | 04:59 |
| gogeta | sirstan ubuntu should aruldy have home shared | 04:59 |
| SirStan | gogeta: Windows 7 shares everything out.. | 04:59 |
| gogeta | sirstan so just setup windows | 04:59 |
| DigitalKiwi | Timboe: there are distros out there that try to look like windows | 04:59 |
| _2eXtreme | guys anyone here have some experience with audio settings in ubuntu? | 04:59 |
| SirStan | gogeta: windows is setup. | 04:59 |
| gogeta | sirstan type the windows local ip | 05:00 |
| Cosmo1 | still a little slow typing with the devorak layout but liking it so far | 05:00 |
| Tyrath | is it just me or does the latest cups update use a large amount of the CPU? and takes incredible amounts of time to print files? | 05:00 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | windows 7 loads up in like 40 seconds for me max from me pressing the button and getting to workable enviroment, it is fast | 05:00 |
| Tyrath | because for some weird reason when I try to print files it's incredible slow and the comp lags before the print | 05:01 |
| gogeta | sirstan you can also try the networking tab in nautlus but i never had luck with making that work with a windows box | 05:01 |
| SirStan | gogeta: still an empty list when i use ip | 05:01 |
| SirStan | gogeta: no login prompt | 05:01 |
| gogeta | sirstan then its not sharing | 05:01 |
| SirStan | gogeta: it is | 05:01 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | anyone here know a way i can get hibernation working, last time i did it, it messed everything up had to go into recovery | 05:01 |

| gogeta | maybe the ports are blocked | 05:02 |
| acr0nym | anyone here familiar with pcm alsa plugins? | 05:02 |

| dunks0r | mib_14wrsk3p, i'd take the added 15secs for getting rid of windows | 05:02 |
| Oprtz | hi there, i am using wifi to connect to the internet, the problem i face is that, some time my computer says no internet (but it is connected to the router and has an ip address) and some time it works flawlessly, i m using 9.04 ubuntu, do u guys facing the same problem ? | 05:02 |
| _2eXtreme | guys how can i set the default volume level of my digital-1 slider in the volume control? | 05:02 |
| voss | im amazed how well ubuntu prints now, its easier setting up a network printer in ubuntu than windows | 05:02 |
| Oprtz | voss: i agreed with u on that :) | 05:03 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | dunks0r: see here's the thing, after i boot in, i can hibernate windows 7, so when i turn on my comp again i can get working again in like 25 seconds, in linux hibernate doesnt work for me ;) | 05:03 |
| dunks0r | voss, yeah i had a canon mp160 that would not work for years and now easy bang done! | 05:03 |
| gogeta | oprts myy wifi card did that to i switched it to ndis and wala fixed | 05:03 |
| voss | dunks and they finally got logitech webcams to work | 05:03 |
| DigitalKiwi | mib_14wrsk3p: why doesn't hibernate work for you? | 05:04 |
| Oprtz | gogeta: ndis ? i couldn't get u , | 05:04 |
| SirStan | so is there no UI way to connect to a windows server? | 05:04 |
| gogeta | !ndiswrapper | 05:04 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 05:04 |
| dunks0r | voss, very good distro, only problem is intel graphics suck, blacklisted the x3100 for compiz... tho it seems its better for karmkoala | 05:04 |
| voss | the linux guts have made serious strides in the last year or two | 05:04 |
| DigitalKiwi | voss: yeah it may be easy to set up a network printer, but full resolution? please | 05:05 |
| fccf | SirStan: sure there is tsclient | 05:05 |
| darlek | SirStan, Nautilus is your network GUI as well. I don't use windows but I ssh with Nautilus with Connect to Server command in the menus of Nautilus | 05:05 |
| mib_14wrsk3p | DigitalKiwi: idk last time i did it, it was in linux mint like 1 week ago, afterwards i couldnt get into my compute rin regular mode | 05:05 |
| SirStan | darlek: nautilus wont list any shares on the server... | 05:05 |

| StevensUbuntuTri | Oftentimes when I turn my computer on, I will get a PXE error and it will say operating system not found. I have to turn the computer off and then back on a few times until it eventually boots and works properly. Does anyone know what this may be about? I am afraid that one day it will not work. | 05:06 |
| SirStan | StevensUbuntuTri: sounds like your ide controller/cable/drive are having an issue | 05:06 |
| dunks0r | Highly recommend Songbird, if anyones looking for a itunes-ish player.... not in repo's but well worth the install | 05:06 |
| fccf | Zasz: Can you be more spacific - if someone knows the answer they probably will tell ou | 05:06 |
| voss | stevens back up your hard drive asap | 05:06 |
| fccf | *you | 05:07 |
| gogeta | dunks0r wine can due itunes as well | 05:07 |
| Zasz | ubuntu crashed which i clicked 'guest session' and will no longer load normally, I can choose recovery mode and get access to a root shell, but how do i start up the normal ubuntu os? | 05:07 |
| StevensUbuntuTri | sirstan: Yes it says PXE error 61 and says something about a cable. What cable? | 05:07 |
| fccf | Zasz: have you tried fix xserver from the recovery screen | 05:07 |
| jamiejackson | I've got a partition that I want to share with the whole family (shared documents, media, etc.), what's a good strategy for doing this, to make the mount point available to all users, and in an obvious place? | 05:07 |
| SirStan | StevensUbuntuTri: PXE is your network card tryign to boot off your ethernet network. | 05:08 |
| SirStan | StevensUbuntuTri: and your PC shouldnt be PXE booting unless there is no harddrive present.. | 05:08 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | I can't seem to get any plugins to download for anything any ideas why | 05:08 |
| gogeta | dunks0r also supports all ipods fully via wine | 05:09 |
| Zasz | fccf: i ran xfix then selected resume normal boot and i get weird graphical artifacts, have to hard reset | 05:09 |
| baddude | I want to add an app I made to the Ubuntu Universe Repository, is this possible? | 05:09 |
| voss | sirstan, managed enviroments often have pxe boot first | 05:09 |
| dunks0r | last i heard itunes 8 didnt support ipod's | 05:09 |
| dunks0r | in wine | 05:09 |
| darlek | SirStan, smbclient -L localhost... connection refused or do you get a list? | 05:09 |
| StevensUbuntuTri | Sirstan: What would you recommend? It eventually boots correctly, but sometime it takes like 10 times! | 05:09 |
| Zasz | my problem is identical to this guy http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6078798&postcount=3, except i cannot load the OS at all when i restart | 05:09 |
| SirStan | darlek: cmd not found | 05:10 |
| darlek | hmm | 05:10 |
| jtaji | jamiejackson: how about /media/share | 05:10 |
| SirStan | voss: uh? | 05:10 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | so yeah guys how do u do a search again? | 05:10 |
| SirStan | mib_bqvs12z8: google.com | 05:11 |
| SirStan | http://pastebin.com/m87c2e8a | 05:11 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | SirStan: lol nah in ubuntu :P | 05:11 |
| SirStan | how do i fix that? | 05:11 |
| SirStan | mib_bqvs12z8: firefox->google.com | 05:11 |
| billywayne | mib_bqvs12z8: what're you searching for? | 05:11 |
| fccf | Zasz: are you running fglrx - or were you before crash? | 05:11 |
| voss | sirstan, in computer networks with corporate imaging pxe will boot first so that any image commands will take precedence if needed | 05:11 |
| jamiejackson | jtaji: is there a trick to making a link, on say all their desktops at once? know how windows has the all users, where (i think, IIRC) you can put stuff that's available to everyon on their desktops? | 05:12 |
| gartral | I can't seem to call gksu from a launcher | 05:12 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | for a file lets say music file | 05:12 |
| SirStan | jamiejackson: nope. | 05:12 |
| fccf | gartral: try gksudo | 05:12 |
| jamiejackson | will stuff mounted at /media/share show up in "places" like externally mounted stuff? | 05:12 |
| billywayne | mib_bqvs12z8: find / -name *.mp3 | 05:12 |
| juvvi | ri0t`kitty | 05:12 |
| gartral | fccf: why is there a difference? | 05:13 |
| darlek | mib_bqvs12z8, man whereis, man find... Places menu has Find Files too... | 05:13 |
| SirStan | how do i fix this apt-get err: http://pastebin.com/m87c2e8a | 05:13 |
| fccf | gartral: there shouldn't be but... | 05:13 |
| Flannel | gartral: There isn't. But what are you calling? Just "gksu" or with a command? | 05:13 |
| voss | sirstan does that make sense? | 05:13 |
| Zasz | fccf: i installed 9.04 yesterday and haven't changed any driver settings, i do have an ati card though so i have whatever the default driver is | 05:13 |
| gartral | Flannel: gksu nice -7 gmplayer is the command i'm trying to launch | 05:14 |
| StevensUbuntuTri | Can anyone help me get my browser to play flash? | 05:14 |
| Flannel | gartral: try putting the command in quotes | 05:14 |
| gartral | Flannel: ok, one moment | 05:14 |
| jrib | !flash > StevensUbuntuTri | 05:14 |
| SirStan | voss: No.. we tell users to press F12 to pxe boot for imaging.. or use dell open manage to push out bios changes.. pxe boot as first boot would make it pretty trivial to wipe machines | 05:14 |
| ubottu | StevensUbuntuTri, please see my private message | 05:14 |
| gartral | Flannel: FULL QUOTES OR SUBQUOTES? | 05:14 |
| gartral | oops | 05:15 |
| === bk is now known as bk|away | ||
| Flannel | gartral: double quotes gksu "stuff" | 05:15 |
| voss | sirstan we use altiris | 05:15 |
| jtaji | jamiejackson: you can use /etc/skel but that's only copied when a user is created | 05:15 |
| Flannel | !away > bk|away | 05:15 |
| ubottu | bk|away, please see my private message | 05:15 |
| SirStan | voss: my condolenses | 05:15 |
| gartral | Flannel: that's full quotes | 05:15 |
| rob235 | anyone have a list of media streamers that work with xbox 360? :) | 05:15 |
| tritium | StevensUbuntuTri: you need to install flashplugin-nonfree | 05:15 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | gegls from outer space :D | 05:15 |
| gartral | Flannel: no changes | 05:15 |
| SirStan | voss: not to compare penises .. but how many machines are you talking? | 05:16 |
| Flannel | gartral: Does it work from a terminal? | 05:16 |
| bk|away | Flannel: if it bothers you that much dont look, its a name change, not an away msg, msg me and youll get an away msg | 05:16 |
| voss | 250 or so, though i generally dont image more than 30 at a time | 05:16 |
| fccf | Zasz: ok run dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg -- from recovery root | 05:16 |
| StevensUbuntuTri | tritium: I have tried that. I even tried Gnash, I get the same result with non free, gnash and swfdec | 05:16 |
| fccf | Zasz: then reboot normally | 05:16 |
| gartral | Flannel: the icon is just sitting on awn, spinning away, and yes, sudo nice -7 gmplayer does what i want it too from terminal, but, I know I can't call sudo directly from a launcher | 05:17 |
| ctmjr | ouch | 05:17 |
| Flannel | gartral: no, no, try gksu yadda from the terminal | 05:17 |
| voss | sirstan its an elementary school | 05:17 |
| SirStan | voss: one of my clients (an edu) we rebuild all the labs weekly, entirely scripted. powered on remotely, pxe enabled, ghost loaded, image pushed, machine pulls software/settings via gpo.. name from dns.. | 05:18 |
| jamiejackson | actually, jtaji, it does show up in "places" so that's accessible enough, thx | 05:18 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | ok guys, do i watch dark blue or black christmas(1974)? | 05:18 |
| gartral | Flannel: can i pm you the 3line output/ | 05:18 |
| gartral | ? | 05:18 |
| jtaji | jamiejackson: yep it does | 05:18 |
| Flannel | gartral: Sure, or pastebin | 05:18 |
| SirStan | voss: we multicast 300 machines at once | 05:18 |
| StevensUbuntuTri | tirtium: I even tried a different browser (epiphany) I get the same result (poor performance on youtube, and no function on any other website with flash) | 05:18 |
| StevensUbuntuTri | even hulu | 05:19 |
| voss | sirstan, i used to be able to lab blast like that, multicasting is much more simple | 05:19 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | StevensUbuntuTri: yeah, flash kind of lags down ubuntu in general | 05:19 |
| voss | now they want us to use rips and base images | 05:19 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | SirStan: multicast as in? | 05:19 |
| SirStan | mib_bqvs12z8: as in.. a server sends out 5gb of data.. and its pushed to 300 machiens accross 5 buildings once.. | 05:20 |
| SirStan | so all machines are imaged with the same image.. at the same time.. | 05:20 |
| voss | mib, take a computer and copy it to a bunch of other computers like ghost | 05:20 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | SirStan: yeah like a distro image right? | 05:20 |
| StevensUbuntuTri | mib_bqvs12z8: Is there a remedy for this? The flash movies look like they are loading, but never do | 05:20 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | StevensUbuntuTri: they dont even play? | 05:20 |
| SirStan | mib_bqvs12z8: the contents are irrelevant.. it could be plan9, bsd, linux, etc. | 05:21 |
| jamiejackson | jtaji: the mount point, does that need to be wide open (777) as is the case for the auto-generated mount points of my USB drives? | 05:21 |
| chronographer | hi all i'm having trouble setting up my second ethernet card. First card (eth0) set using wicd connects fine, browsing internet through that. I have another card which I like yo use for crossover cable for file transfer but I can't set it up. I tried statically in interfaces and also tried using wicd. What are suggestions. | 05:21 |
| pspsampsp | how can i disable usb write cache? | 05:22 |
| chronographer | pinging my laptop which is connected gives: ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted | 05:22 |
| SirStan | voss: i'd kill for a bios option to install from ISO from a url. | 05:22 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | so no answer for me? dark blue or black christmas (1974)? | 05:22 |
| gartral | how do i "part" a pm in irssi from a terminal that doesn't handle ctrl-c real well? | 05:22 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | chronographer: sudo it | 05:23 |
| Flannel | gartral: /wc | 05:23 |
| Flannel | gartral: (window close) | 05:23 |
| ftw | ddclear | 05:23 |
| chronographer | ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted | 05:23 |
| chronographer | still after sudo | 05:23 |
| Zasz | fccf: ok, i ran the reconfigure command and then reboot and let it boot normally, it shows the ubuntu splash loading screen, when the progress bar gets full, it flashes black, and freezes with a screen full of graphical artifacts | 05:23 |
| gartral | Flannel: that's twice in 5 minutes! thank you again! | 05:23 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | chronographer: ohh, no clue then, sorry | 05:23 |
| ftw | pardon my gibberish | 05:23 |
| chronographer | why does the network have to be so complicated in these new versions of Ubuntj? | 05:24 |
| SirStan | chronographer: works perfect for me ... | 05:24 |
| fccf | Zasz: do you know what kind of videocard you have? | 05:24 |
| chronographer | what else is there apart from the interfaces file to set things up with? | 05:24 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | what's the best IRC client for linux like all the smilies colors everything addons | 05:24 |
| pspsampsp | chronographer: i had no problem | 05:24 |
| SirStan | mib_bqvs12z8: ircii | 05:24 |
| ioanna | hey | 05:24 |
| jrib | switch_server | 05:24 |
| chronographer | can you use wicd to set up two ethernet cards? | 05:24 |
| jrib | ugh, sorry | 05:24 |
| SirStan | what is wicd? | 05:24 |
| chronographer | !wicd | 05:24 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about wicd | 05:24 |
| chronographer | its like network-config | 05:25 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | i am trying to play a .mod file and when movieplayer searches fro a plug in it comes back with a message saying no package with selected plug in found The requested plugins are: | 05:25 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | MPEG-2 System Stream demuxer Could someone please help me figure it out | 05:25 |
| SirStan | chronographer: I have 4 ethernet adapters in my ubuntu machine.. and they all work great | 05:25 |
| gartral | mib_bqvs12z8: nicest doesnt mean prettiest, be careful, the Nicest IRC client is Irssi, what im using, the prettiest is probably xchat or pidgin | 05:25 |
| jesus_ | please spanish chat | 05:25 |
| samd | SirStan: wicd is a network manager, to scan for networks | 05:25 |
| tritium | jesus_: #ubuntu-es | 05:25 |
| chronographer | geez. you use the default network manager | 05:25 |
| Zasz | fccf: some ati card, i can boot into windows and check | 05:25 |
| SirStan | samd: 'scan' for networks? | 05:25 |
| chronographer | ? | 05:25 |
| fccf | Zasz: hold on | 05:25 |
| Getterac7 | Question about software RAID in Ubuntu. I'm planning to switch my file server from OpenFiler to Ubuntu; is it possible to save my mdadm configuration and bring my RAID up without losing data? | 05:25 |
| samd | SirStan: yeah, to see and connect to wireless networks within range | 05:25 |
| SirStan | chronographer: of course not.. that would be silly. | 05:25 |
| Zasz | sure | 05:25 |
| SirStan | samd: is that what my 9.04 laptop is using to configure wifi? | 05:25 |
| fccf | Zasz: ctrl+alt+f1 | 05:25 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | SirStan: u LIE :P | 05:26 |
| pspsampsp | how can i disable write cache for usb drives? | 05:26 |
| SirStan | mib_bqvs12z8: i lie? | 05:26 |
| chronographer | SirStan: you manually edit interfaces? | 05:26 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | SirStan: :D | 05:26 |
| samd | SirStan: nope, its not the default ,, the default is "network manager" you can find it in the pannel | 05:26 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | gartral: yeah i have pidgin never found the irc in pidgin good though idk | 05:26 |
| Zasz | fccf, when i hit that with the screen of graphical artifacts it does nothing | 05:26 |
| SirStan | chronographer: Im not sure what you would call 'manually'... ubuntu server has a slightly different (ie, no UI) way to configure things. | 05:27 |
| gartral | mib_bqvs12z8: xchat | 05:27 |
| fccf | Zasz: reboot - get to recovery console | 05:27 |
| voss | mib, chatzilla is nice | 05:27 |
| jamiejackson | what's the terminology (so i can google it) for when you set up a directory in such a way that files automatically get certain permissions when they're added? | 05:27 |
| chronographer | oh right. but you open the file with vi or whatever and change stuff? | 05:27 |
| SirStan | jamiejackson: umask | 05:27 |
| StevensUbuntuTri | Is is possible to run Ubuntu on an old Pentium II? | 05:27 |
| Fenix|home | Greetings... Anyone know how to fix dmraid in jaunty? | 05:27 |
| jamiejackson | thx, SirStan | 05:27 |
| SirStan | StevensUbuntuTri: yes | 05:27 |
| chronographer | I am happy using no UI, but even the no IU way doesn't work!!!!! | 05:27 |
| Zasz | fccf: it's a radeon x1350, btw | 05:27 |
| pepperjack | StevensUbuntuTri: ive run debian on a p133 with 8MB ram with a gui so yeah | 05:28 |
| samd | SirStan: if ur in ubuntu server, ull have to configure via command line | 05:28 |
| gartral | StevensUbuntuTri: try xubuntu | 05:28 |
| SirStan | chronographer: I Just brought up my eth1 "manually" and am reconfiguring my wireless router just fine :~). | 05:28 |
| SirStan | samd: not true. | 05:28 |
| lennyf | StevensUbuntuTri: I am on an 800Mhz PIII with Ubuntu now | 05:28 |
| tritium | chronographer: sure it does. "man interfaces" for more details on how to properly setup your /etc/network/interfaces file | 05:28 |
| chronographer | so editing /etc/network/interfaces and ifup and down ?? | 05:28 |
| samd | SirStan: yes , unless uve installed a gui | 05:28 |
| gartral | pepperjack: nmaybe you havent looked much into just *how* different Ubuntu is from Mother Debian, trust me, if you try and boot ubuntu on less than 256 megs ram, you will be SORRY | 05:29 |
| voss | sirstan ubuntu server is cli by default | 05:29 |
| SirStan | samd: i assume you havent installed ubuntu server then.. it lets you setup networking w/o using the console thx. | 05:29 |
| tritium | SirStan: so does ubuntu desktop | 05:29 |
| SirStan | voss: I am well aware. | 05:29 |
| SirStan | voss: but samd's statement was incorrect. | 05:30 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | wait how do i join this room in pidgin? | 05:30 |
| lennyf | StevensUbuntuTri: sorry, I missread. PII try Xubuntu. | 05:30 |
| samd | SirStan: if u have no gui, theres no way to configure wireless... , even in the installer, its text based | 05:30 |
| chronographer | ping 192.168.3.3 -> ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted | 05:30 |
| chronographer | what is the reason for this? | 05:30 |
| SirStan | samd: you can configure wireless without a GUI my son. | 05:30 |
| tritium | samd: no, you can configure wireless in /etc/network/interfaces | 05:31 |
| DigitalKiwi | wicd has a version with a curses interface \o/ | 05:31 |
| tritium | samd: "man wireless" for details. | 05:31 |
| samd | tritium: yeah, and you do that from a console isnt it? | 05:31 |
| DigitalKiwi | and ofc you can configure wireless from the command line :/ | 05:31 |
| StevensUbuntuTri | lennyf: Is Xubuntu a smaller program? Is that a special install? | 05:31 |
| samd | tritium: vi /etc/netwo... | 05:31 |
| DigitalKiwi | there are tons of scripts or you can do it by hand | 05:31 |
| chronographer | I know. debian, once configured, works flawlessly in terms of wired and wireless networking. But this new Ubuntu doesn't work | 05:31 |
| gartral | !xubuntu | StevensUbuntuTri | 05:31 |
| ubottu | StevensUbuntuTri: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 05:31 |
| SirStan | chronographer: pastebin your ifconfig plz | 05:31 |
| tritium | samd: also, read /usr/share/doc/wireless-tools/README.Debian | 05:32 |
| becomingGuru | chronographer, _this new_ :O | 05:32 |

| ubottu | pastebinit is the command-line equivelent of !pastebin . Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output. Simple usage: command-name | pastebinit | 05:33 |
| fccf | Zasz: type ... cd / ... then cd /etc/X11... then ls | 05:33 |
| mib_bqvs12z8 | why does it say im banned from #Ubuntu? | 05:33 |

| Thornsbery | It's an intel 945GM. | 05:38 |
| SirStan | chronographer: not sure dude.. your conf looks good | 05:38 |
| Toadlips | Thanks Chrono! I'll give that a try!!!! | 05:38 |
| chronographer | its multithreaded so very fast and very good at codecs | 05:38 |
| DigitalKiwi | hmm what was that one app | 05:38 |
| Toadlips | Smoooht! | 05:38 |
| chronographer | SirStan: yes I know. Maybe I will <shudder> restart | 05:38 |
| pepperjack | Thornsbery: may help- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 05:38 |

| DigitalKiwi | I liked it | 05:39 |
| SirStan | chronographer: try service stop iptables | 05:39 |
| pspsampsp | ubuntunoobneedi1: go into system -> administration -> Software Sources and enable software restricted by copyright | 05:39 |
| Zasz | fccf: was afraid of that :( .. if i reinstall from live cd will it keep the packages i've downloaded or should i format the drive? | 05:39 |
| SirStan | chronographer: service iptables stop | 05:39 |
| lennyf | StevensUbuntuTri: also try Debris LInux, a very small Ubuntu variant. | 05:39 |
| pspsampsp | ubuntunoobneedi1: i have all options enabled . | 05:39 |
| chronographer | $iptables: unrecognized service | 05:39 |
| chronographer | nvm. I will try to fix it later | 05:40 |
| chronographer | thank for your time though | 05:40 |
| l7 | hi, can someone tell me how to use the .gpg files at http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ ? | 05:40 |
| fccf | Zasz: if you reinstall it will format anyway - you could try apt-get update && apt-get upgrade to see if that fixes anything | 05:40 |
| l7 | i think i need to get a key from an ubuntu keyserver to verify it | 05:41 |
| hubar_ | hi all question, how do I change default session manager from gdm to kdm, on jaunty? | 05:42 |
| Zasz | fccf: well thanks for all your help, i do appreciate it. i guess the bright side is that I only recently installed so i won't lose too much if i do have to format :) | 05:42 |
| pepperjack | hubar_: if you have kubuntu installed already sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm perhaps though im not sure | 05:43 |
| tritium | pepperjack: that's correct | 05:43 |

| pepperjack | rob235: sometimes you can get away with using a symlink for like v5name to the actual v6lib | 05:58 |

| DigitalKiwi | that is bad | 05:58 |
| rob235 | oh wait, it says pcre3 in the main title in synaptic but its really version 7.8 | 05:58 |

| rob235 | ugh i dunno what to do | 05:59 |

| rob235 | Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you | 06:00 |
| rob235 | installed software in a non-standard prefix. | 06:00 |
| rob235 | Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PCRE_CFLAGS | 06:00 |

| yaris123456789 | !OpenVZ | 06:30 |

| saprophyte | hehe | 06:33 |
| saprophyte | thnx | 06:33 |
| aSt3raL | there is linux-headers-2.6.28-11 in the repo but i have 2.6.22.18 | 06:34 |

| aSt3raL | right | 06:35 |

| mattgman | question: when I try to install a package from a .deb, on a clean rebooted computer, it says that a pkg mgr is already running and can't install it. any ideas? | 07:02 |
| jtaji | WIGGMPk: you would think so, I'm not sure though | 07:02 |

| rob235 | typing ffmpeg in a terminal doesnt say command not found so its definitely installed somewhere hah | 07:12 |
| kubuntero | rob235: ffmpeg would install to libs | 07:13 |
| rob235 | ok thanks | 07:13 |

| Vaga | reconfiguring xorg dosent rely let me reconfigure the display, just the keyboard.... I cant run the install either since that to autodetects my monitor incorrectly :/ | 07:52 |
| Randabis | Yeah, it's nice. :) Ubuntu has seriously improved a lot since the last time I had it installed. | 07:52 |
| kandinski | obviously I cant apt-get install -f to depants it; can anybody help me diagnose and fix the problem? | 07:52 |
| Randabis | wubi is phenomenal. :) That was the most painless install ever. | 07:52 |
| ghindo | Randabis: Good to hear! | 07:52 |
| gartral | mattgman: new codecs, no change whatso ever | 07:53 |
| fccf | kandinski: you might try restarting with the previus kernel .. to see if that fixes anything | 07:53 |
| mattgman | gartal - no idea man | 07:53 |
| tritium | gartral: did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 07:53 |
| kandinski | fccf: good point, will try that | 07:53 |
| Randabis | ghindo: Thanks! I'm really enjoying being back in a linux environment. | 07:53 |
| ghindo | Randabis: That's the nice thing about open source software - it's constantly improving | 07:54 |
| ushimitsudoki | Is there an OO.org (*NOT* go-oo) repository/PPA for Ubuntu? | 07:54 |
| hunterrose | Yeah I put ubuntu on my desktop that I use for school, but I am sorta-forced to use my laptop atleast until I figure out a way to connect to a windows share =3=, but I like using ubuntu now-a-days :D | 07:54 |
| gartral | tritium: I did, and I can lay DVDs that are in %100 perstine condition in mplayer, but if they have any dust, minute scratch, or other blemish on the bitfeild, gmplayer hangs and i have to force quit (or zap from an ssh terminal if i was fullscreen) | 07:55 |
| gartral | s// lay/play | 07:55 |
| ghindo | ushimitsudoki: I think so. If you give me a sec, I can look for it... | 07:55 |
| ushimitsudoki | ghindo: cool, thanks :) | 07:55 |
| hoohaah | hi guys. i'm thinking about installing ubuntu. for something like ralink that needs firmware download, will ubuntu offer this on the cd? | 07:55 |
| fccf | hoohaah: you will want to use ndiswrapper with that card - using windows drivers | 07:56 |
| kandinski | hoohaah: you can find out by trying it on livecd mode | 07:56 |
| gartral | tritium: *all* other players not based on mplayer work fine, just drop the frames and keep going, mplayer, even though i have frame dropping, refuses to read even a lightly dusty dvd | 07:56 |
| hunterrose | I am probably gonna have to make a disk image for this, so that after this class I can install ubuntu directly, instead of through the windows installer | 07:56 |
| tritium | gartral: interesting. | 07:57 |
| Randabis | ghindo: Definitely. I must admit I feel I cheated a little bit with wubi. I sort of miss gentoo. :/ | 07:57 |
| hoohaah | fccf: windows drivers was what was causing the problem | 07:57 |
| pspsampsp | i tryed adding some mount optiions for a drive but i stuffed it up how can i remove the mount options? | 07:57 |
| hoohaah | i ran a different debian-based livecd, and the connection was perfect | 07:57 |
| hoohaah | figured i'd install may as well install ubuntu | 07:57 |
| Koheleth | I have removed Chromium beause I cannot upgrade anything while its installed | 07:58 |
| Koheleth | np, will wait for it, nice though | 07:58 |
| gartral | tritium: and I know it's not my dvdrom, it read a cd that was craked through 80% to the core and managed to recover all but a single photo | 07:58 |
| rob235 | wow, my ubuntu just puked nautilus screens | 07:58 |
| fccf | hoohaah: you can try most anything with the live cd - to see if it is working | 07:58 |
| gartral | !gross | rob235 | 07:58 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gross | 07:58 |
| gartral | rob235: please avoid using gross analogies | 07:59 |
| hunterrose | thats weird, why does my ubuntu desktop edition have a Nvidia X Server applet in the system > Administration | 07:59 |
| rob235 | heh ok | 07:59 |
| gartral | hunterrose: you have an nvidia gfx card | 07:59 |
| hunterrose | Yeah | 07:59 |
| Koheleth | hunterrose: opensuse does that too | 07:59 |
| hunterrose | ah | 07:59 |
| gartral | hunterrose: it wasnt a question, it was an answer | 08:00 |
| hunterrose | gartral: and I replied with a yeah :D | 08:00 |
| hunterrose | as an agreement | 08:00 |
| kandinski | fccf: you rock, going back to the previous kernel fixed it, thanks | 08:00 |
| gartral | ahh, i thought it was in the context of "Yeah.. So?" | 08:00 |
| hunterrose | nah | 08:00 |
| fccf | kandinski: doing that may or may not break other things | 08:00 |
| ghindo | ushimitsudoki: Is this what you're looking for? https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-pkgs/+archive/ppa | 08:01 |
| kandinski | fccf: well, as long as it fixes networking... | 08:01 |
| gartral | hunterrose: if you didnt have that, you wouldnt be able to use 3dfx | 08:01 |
| gartral | tritium: any info found? | 08:01 |
| kandinski | then oh, now I am at "processing was halted because there were too many errors" phase | 08:01 |
| tritium | gartral: no | 08:01 |
| * kandinski loves apt* when it works | 08:01 | |
| hunterrose | gartral: ah I see, I was just curious why it was called X Server, it makes me think that it was for a server edition or somethun | 08:02 |
| fccf | kandinski: getting that error from apt? | 08:02 |
| yaris123456789 | "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '' with grant option; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; " it still says Host XX.XX.xX is not allowed to connect to mysql server.... wth ??? | 08:02 |

| pspsampsp | i tryed adding some mount optiions for a drive but i stuffed it up how can i remove the mount options? | 08:02 |
| hunterrose | Yeah I know x windows, I just got a tad confused. | 08:03 |
| pspsampsp | i cant mount the drive anymore | 08:03 |
| ushimitsudoki | ghindo: thanks i will have to check that is OO.org and not go-oo, but it's a good starting place | 08:03 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 08:03 |
| fccf | kandinski: you still have a broken system - and it may take a little figuring out to get you back to golden | 08:03 |
| gartral | hunterrose: in short your X windows are displayed by your X server | 08:03 |
| silv3r_m00n | me on 8.10 and at time suddenly the language turns to my native language and all text editors type in that | 08:03 |
| silv3r_m00n | why is this happening | 08:03 |
| hunterrose | ah I see | 08:04 |
| avgbvge | hi. has anyone else had "mouse clicks with touchpad" stop working after upgrading to karmic? (other touchpad settings, including scroll, continue to work fine) | 08:04 |
| ghindo | avgbvge: I would check in #ubuntu+1 | 08:04 |
| fccf | avgbvge: karmic is +1 | 08:05 |
| gartral | silv3r_m00n: you may have to find the room that's in your native language, no offence ut i can't make heads or tails of that info | 08:05 |
| avgbvge | ghindo: thanks | 08:05 |
| silv3r_m00n | gartral: see ... me using english fine ... but say every 30 mins the text editors start typing in hindi language | 08:05 |
| silv3r_m00n | and then I have to restart to fix it | 08:05 |
| silv3r_m00n | the behaviour is very random say once a week or so | 08:06 |
| rob235 | woot woot just reached 100,000 files, when will it stop? nobody knows! | 08:06 |
| === Kazanowa[breakfa is now known as Kazanowa | ||
| kandinski | fccf: can you give me a clue on how to start diagnosing it? It is testimony to ubuntu's goodness that I have been using it for four years now, but it has mostly worked till now, so I don't even know where to start poking | 08:06 |
| gartral | silv3r_m00n: im not sure | 08:06 |
| silv3r_m00n | hmm | 08:07 |
| fccf | kandinski: firstly you can search on ubuntuforums.org for people having the same errors as you... 2 google search ubuntu jaunty networking broken on upgrade | 08:08 |
| ushimitsudoki | calc: is your PPA OO.org or go-oo? | 08:08 |
| rob235 | why cant i just install fuppes | 08:08 |
| rob235 | im going to shoot myself in the head, after the creator of ffmpeg and fuppes | 08:09 |
| Randabis | i was really surprised my broadcom wireless worked out of the box. I remember having hell trying to get a broadcom chipset working back in the day | 08:09 |
| kandinski | fccf: except that the problem now is not broken networking, but broken apt | 08:09 |
| kandinski | fccf: thanks | 08:09 |
| tritium | kandinski: have you run "apt-get install -f"? | 08:10 |
| fccf | kandinski: apt is broken because apt was upgraded - using the broken(new) kernel apt would work | 08:10 |
| fccf | tritium: kandinski lost his networking on upgrade to jaunty... is currently using old kernel | 08:11 |
| tritium | fccf: apt and the kernel are unrelated | 08:11 |
| Gnea | rob235: fuppes? | 08:11 |
| rob235 | wow it finally stopped around 140k files | 08:11 |
| rob235 | upnp media server that works with xbox360 | 08:11 |

| rob235 | the package on the site says it was built in 2007 but the svn is recent but when i run make i get ffmpeg errors | 08:12 |
| Gnea | there's another one... | 08:12 |
| tritium | kandinski: can you pastebin the error? | 08:12 |

| Gnea | it worked with the 360 a few years ago, why not now? | 08:13 |
| tritium | rob235: do you have the proper development libraries installed? | 08:13 |
| rob235 | Gnea: i didnt know it did, i was just going by what i read | 08:14 |
| Gnea | rob235: I've used it, I'm pretty sure it works, I wouldn't recommend it unless I knew for a fact that it does. try it, see what happens. | 08:14 |

| fccf | tritium: dpkg requires jaunty kernel .. | 08:25 |
| areels | i have to reaplly always | 08:25 |
| tritium | fccf: no it doesn't | 08:25 |
| System404 | Gnea: but wouldnt the 360 allready pick up your media like it does with windows | 08:25 |
| Gnea | areels: so you're editting xorg.conf? | 08:25 |
| rob235 | System404: you give ms way too much credit | 08:26 |
| areels | yes Gnea | 08:26 |
| kandinski | fccf: tritium: note that I am using kernel 2.6.27.14 now and jaunty kernel is 2.6.28.12 (but my networking does not work under jaunty kernel) | 08:26 |
| Gnea | System404: you'd have to install it and configure it to find out | 08:26 |
| kandinski | fccf: why does dpkg require the jaunty kernel? | 08:26 |
| Gnea | areels: why don't you use the nvidia-settings tool? | 08:26 |
| tritium | kandinski: it does not. | 08:26 |
| System404 | Gnea: i mean why install the app wouldnt the 360 pick up the media without the app | 08:27 |
| areels | Gnea: i'm using it but it doesn't remember settings, always goes to start | 08:27 |
| tritium | kandinski: dpkg installs .deb packages, and requires no networking whatsoever | 08:27 |

| Gnea | System404: because it needs the app in order to speak the same language | 08:27 |
| areels | so clicking on save to x config but that doesnt efffect either | 08:27 |
| kandinski | tritium: I get you say it does not, but if fccf says it does, it is he who should have an explanation | 08:27 |

| lennyf | System404: you need ushare or a similar UPnP app for the 360 to see a linux box | 08:27 |
| kandinski | tritium: I get your explanation: apt gets packages and dpkg installs them, so dpkg does no fetching, only installing, right? | 08:28 |
| tritium | kandinski: correct | 08:28 |

| pspsampsp | manday: do you have compiz turned on? | 08:28 |
| ManDay | Yes pspsampsp | 08:28 |
| System404 | lennyf: ahh i get u now i use my windows 7 when i connect to my 360 linux is too much effort to get the 360 up and runnin in windows its just plug in and go | 08:29 |
| fccf | kandinski:because you have upgraded to jaunty ... you are running 2.6.27.14 as a stop gap to have networking - if you want to run dpkg - reboot using the new kernel - do what you need to do with dpkg using the 2.6.28 kernel | 08:29 |

| kandinski | fccf: thanks for the advice, and I am doing it just to give it a try, but surely the problem is in the databases and not in the dpkg-kernel interaction? | 08:30 |

| pepperjack | System404: i use ushare it works well. basically just install start and then do a netstat or something to see what port it bound to and open browser to that url | 08:30 |
| kandinski | tritium: going | 08:30 |
| ghindo | DaveCo: What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 08:30 |
| ManDay | pspsampsp, mind giving me a short hint what that option actually means? | 08:31 |
| Gnea | System404: so if it's too much effort to setup ushare, then it surely doesn't bother you to have to reboot your computer to windows everytime | 08:31 |
| System404 | lennyf: dont u have to mess around with iptables and such to get the xbox up and runnin | 08:31 |
| tritium | kandinski: based on your error message, we need to make sure the last line of that file is correct. | 08:31 |

| kandinski | tritium, surely you meant tail -n 3 /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-headers-2.6.28-12.list and not "11.list"? | 08:33 |
| ManDay | pspsampsp, it works, thanks | 08:33 |
| Oprtz1 | Boohbah: it means ubuntu is not for accounting system? | 08:33 |
| pspsampsp | manday: no problem , i had that with rythymbox | 08:33 |
| tritium | kandinski: well, I'm wondering where you got 12 at all, since it's not in the jaunty repos | 08:33 |
| kandinski | oh | 08:33 |
| kandinski | great | 08:33 |
| Oprtz1 | we have our own software running under redhat 7 but it doesn't connect with wirlesslan, thats why i asked in ubuntu | 08:34 |
| hskill | the nvidia geforce 6150SE integrated videocard/mobo says it has one dvi-i port and one vga/d-sub port, does that mean it suppors dual-monitors? | 08:34 |
| tritium | kandinski: do you have unofficial repos listed in your /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 08:34 |
| System404 | lennyf: i do like it i love it actually looks great love the synaptic package manager especially makes getting apps so much simpler just type wat u want pick the highest rated and away u go soooo much easier | 08:34 |
| pspsampsp | could someone please help me , i really need to copy some files to my psp , earlier on i tried changing the mount options and i stufffed it up , now whenever i connect my psp i get an error "invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume" , how can i remove the mount options? | 08:34 |
| System404 | no searching for apps on google and askin ppl is it ne good | 08:34 |

| Gnea | areels: have you tried resetting your config and following the instructions at the website I had ubottu give you? | 08:35 |
| areels | gnea no | 08:35 |
| kandinski | tritium: "28-11" is not there, "28-12" is | 08:35 |
| areels | those instructions seems confusing | 08:36 |
| tritium | kandinski: I know. Please see my questions about repos in your /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:36 |
| kandinski | tritium: I probably have unofficial repos: this is the house computer we use as a tv, and there are two and a half of us who use it (the half is a part-timer) | 08:36 |
| kandinski | (sorry for being a slow typer) | 08:36 |

| pspsampsp | guys dont worry i managed to find an answer | 08:37 |
| Gnea | areels: it doesn't? | 08:37 |
| POPEYE | how to add keyboard settings to xorg.conf? | 08:37 |
| tritium | kandinski: see above (2.6.28.11 is latest in jaunty) | 08:37 |
| Gnea | areels: how did you type it? | 08:37 |
| kandinski | tritium: other than jaunty-proposed and medibuntu, no | 08:37 |
| areels | no Gnea bash: $: command not found | 08:37 |
| Gnea | areels: $ is part of the prompt, not the command | 08:38 |
| areels | oh | 08:38 |
| Gnea | areels: the command is: xrandr | 08:38 |
| tritium | kandinski: looks like it came from jaunty-proposed, then. | 08:38 |
| Gnea | $ means a regular user prompt, # means a root/superuser prompt | 08:38 |
| kandinski | tritium: and medibuntu is disabled by the jaunty upgrade... oh, medibuntu is disabled by the jaunty upgrade. could that be the problem? | 08:38 |
| kandinski | tritium: should I disable it? | 08:38 |
| areels | Gnea: i did this xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1920x1080 is it done now? | 08:38 |
| tritium | kandinski: no, it's unrelated to medibuntu. It's from -proposed, and clearly not ready for inclusion in the main repos yet. | 08:38 |
| tritium | kandinski: yes, for now, please do | 08:39 |
| Gnea | areels: I have no idea. different setups will have a different output | 08:39 |
| Gnea | areels: that's why I run xrandr by itself to see what it finds | 08:39 |
| Gnea | areels: if it did work, the resolution would change - the point behind xrandr is to control the resolution from the commandline - it's not writing to a file | 08:40 |
| areels | res is ok now but is it saved? | 08:40 |
| Gnea | no | 08:40 |
| areels | oh | 08:40 |
| areels | saving is my problem | 08:40 |
| kandinski | tritium: updated repos with apt-get update after taking proposed out, now what? | 08:40 |
| Gnea | what does the site suggest? | 08:41 |
| areels | writing to xorg.conf | 08:41 |
| areels | but i already did that, doesnt work | 08:41 |
| Gnea | ...heh? | 08:41 |
| fccf | areels have you used sudo? | 08:41 |
| areels | yes | 08:41 |

| Boohbah | logical: this is it | 08:45 |
| kandinski | tritium: so far it is downloading a load of packages, so it seems I am getting ahead | 08:45 |

| kandinski | tritium: purging the packages answers with "E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution)." It seems the problem is circular! | 08:51 |
| kandinski | tritium: I am using "-f" with purge too | 08:51 |
| logical | fccf: i'd like to just change the dimensions of the character, not the character of my words | 08:51 |
| tritium | kandinski: for the moment, then, let's try editing the offending .list file. | 08:51 |
| Gnea | kandinski: tried: sudo dpkg --configure -a | 08:52 |
| logical | fccf: gnome look and stuff like that are sites to find themes and similar things, not to change dimensions | 08:52 |

| ubottu | gartral: Interested in becoming an Ubuntu Developer? Get started here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment | 08:54 |
| Ademan | Gnea: i installed the deb from their site, I assume it's the same package available in the repositories mentioned on that wiki page, and it throws an "error playing back sound" error, the same wiki page recommends getting rid of pulseaudio | 08:54 |
| Gnea | gartral: that site will explain it better | 08:54 |
| tritium | gartral: one method, not perfect, is to use checkinstall | 08:54 |
| gartral | Gnea: im not deving, im compiling from source for personal use, all i want to do is amake a .deb out of mplayer's latest source! | 08:55 |
| kandinski | tritium: right, the file ends in a lot of garbage, like uncompressing from a corrupted file | 08:55 |
| tritium | kandinski: that sounds like what happened. | 08:55 |
| Koheleth | skype not working for me, whats new | 08:55 |
| Gnea | Ademan: never a good idea to assume, especially when it's not from the repo - try uninstalling it and then installing from the repo and see/hear what happens | 08:55 |
| Koheleth | must be something with my sound card | 08:55 |
| blame | Gnea: I just started f-spot with 'root' rights and I get the same error, which I essence excludes 'permission' issues? | 08:55 |
| Gnea | gartral: understood. that site will explain the procedure. | 08:56 |
| baker_gr | Koheleth, in my ubuntu 9.04 i have on audio settings at skype all to pulse and working just fine | 08:56 |
| blame | *in essence | 08:56 |
| Gnea | gartral: just ignore the useless bits :) | 08:56 |
| tritium | kandinski: you can also try to replace it, if editing it doesn't work | 08:56 |
| baker_gr | Koheleth, try to change the settings from auto to pulse audio | 08:56 |
| gartral | Gnea: another prob, I'm in irsi and i can't click or copy the link | 08:56 |
| Koheleth | ok | 08:57 |

| kandinski | tritium: well, I was kind of guessing there. apt-get -f install works now, though I suspect system will be somewhat pantsed still | 08:57 |
| Koheleth | thing is skype just will not start | 08:57 |
| kandinski | tritium: thanks a lot, I will try going on from heree on my own now | 08:57 |
| gartral | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide | 08:57 |
| Koheleth | so I cant edit anything | 08:57 |
| gartral | oops, middle clicking pasted it here | 08:57 |
| Gnea | heh | 08:57 |
| tritium | kandinski: ok, keep me posted. I have two ideas for you, if you decide you need to fully replace that file | 08:58 |

| gartral | fccf: i have the source untarred, I just want to know how to make one freaking .deb... | 09:03 |
| Gnea | blame: did you make any changes to your user groups? | 09:04 |
| blame | Gnea: each of these applications detect the camera and it's model, but fail to connect | 09:04 |
| tritium | gartral: short answer is to use checkinstall | 09:04 |
| Gnea | blame: the camera didn't put itself into power-saving mode, did it? | 09:04 |
| fccf | gartral: and mvo did a really nice job explaining it | 09:04 |
| gartral | checkinstall has been known to corrupt packages | 09:04 |
| ziroday | gartral: making a .deb is no simple process | 09:04 |
| blame | Gnea: it did (as if pictures are about to be extracted) | 09:04 |
| tritium | gartral: which is why I said it's not perfect. Your alternative is to learn the intricacies of packaging. | 09:05 |
| Gnea | blame: try power-cycling the camera, plug it into the usb port, and run the scan right away | 09:05 |
| blame | Gnea: that's the first thing that came to mind, eve switched USB ports ... nada | 09:06 |
| gartral | ziroday: i wouldn't have to go through all this if the Ubuntu devs would put a version of mplayer in the repos that didnt wigout when you put a *barly* damaged DVD in the drive! | 09:06 |
| reto__ | I have selected "automatically remember running applications" and know I don't want the feature anymore but the programs are still loaded, how can I purge the record? | 09:06 |
| Gnea | blame: I've got a kodak as well and never had a problem like that... are you sure the battery isn't almost dead? | 09:06 |
| ziroday | gartral: is there a bug report filed? If its a major issue its likely to be SRU worthy | 09:06 |
| skierpage | I screwed up my NTFS partition, so I need to make an exact copy of it on my USB hard drive (using `dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/dev/sdc1 conv=noerror,sync`) so I can plug it into a Windows laptop and run chkdsk, but how do I make a partition the right size? | 09:07 |
| ziroday | gartral: as for you, you can try find a newer version in a PPA, or use checkinstall | 09:07 |
| blame | Gnea: If they were - I don't think lsusb would have detected anything. | 09:07 |
| Gnea | skierpage: use clonezilla | 09:07 |

| hskill | which mobo is best for linux out of: asus, msi, abit, asrock, ecs and biostar? | 09:08 |

| tritium | hskill: that's a matter of opinion | 09:08 |

| hskill | ok | 09:08 |
| Gnea | blame: it takes more power to pass a query of what's on the camera than it does to ask "what's your usb id number?" | 09:08 |
| tritium | hskill: don't forget Gigabyte, as well ;) | 09:08 |
| gartral | ziroday: i do that regardles of legality, but right now, i have less than 2 gigs drive space | 09:08 |
| hskill | i heard gigabyte is good, but they dont carry it at my local computer shop | 09:08 |

| javi | hi, is there any problems with the servers? I'm getting no public key available when I try to apt-get update | 09:09 |
| hskill | does 64-bit ubuntu run just as stable as 32-bit? | 09:09 |
| Paddy_EIRE | hskill: you would need to be a lot more specific than just calling out manufacturers | 09:09 |
| tritium | hskill: yes | 09:09 |
| Gnea | skierpage: you're asking for trouble. clonezilla is specifically designed to handle the task you're referring to, it's based on debian, it's free, it's solid, and it works. | 09:09 |
| gartral | im not complaining, i just want to watch this smegging dvd in a nice quality player (everything else chops and skips like crazy) | 09:09 |
| ziroday | hskill: hardware wise ##hardware #phoronix or #ubuntu-offtopic might be helpful in picking out a good motherboard for you | 09:09 |

| ziroday | reto`: do the programs appear in Startup Applications? | 09:11 |
| Myrtti | darkest_night: 64-bit Ubuntu? | 09:11 |

| reto` | ziroday: no | 09:11 |
| javi | http://pastebin.ca/1449520 | 09:11 |
| Myrtti | darkest_night: that's your reason then - you need either bigmem kernel or 64-bit system. | 09:11 |
| ziroday | reto`: try re-enabling that option, and closing all open applications before restarting | 09:11 |
| reto` | ziroday: ah yeah... good idea :) | 09:11 |
| gartral | gnea ziroday there ARE security updates and fixes upstream for mplayer | 09:12 |
| ziroday | javi: have you recently added a PPA to your sources.list? | 09:12 |
| darkest_night | Myrtti: what is a bigmem kernel? | 09:12 |
| reto` | ziroday: but where is that stuff normally stored? | 09:12 |
| Gnea | gartral: I wasn't aware that I was refuting that? | 09:12 |
| javi | ziroday: last one was the amarok 2.1 ppa | 09:12 |
| ziroday | reto`: I don't know sorry, probably in gconf or ~/.gnome2 but I wouldn't know where | 09:12 |
| ziroday | javi: okay, you need to add the GPG key for those repo's to clear that error | 09:12 |
| ziroday | javi: in fact I just saw a handy script to do that for you, let me try and dig it up | 09:13 |

| skierpage | Gnea, I can only repeat what I said. I *know* `dd` will do what I want, I have no idea WTF "Clonezilla" is. I don't want to clone my system, just /dev/sda1. I guess I'll make the dest partition "a bit" bigger in parted and go for it. | 09:13 |
| javi | ziroday: thank you | 09:13 |
| hoho | restarting nfs service failed,it say rpc is failed | 09:13 |

| gartral | Gnea: I just couldn't remember which one mentioned it, i thought i would update you :) | 09:14 |
| Gnea | skierpage: look, clonezilla clones disks and partitions - it uses dd, it even has a plethora of ntfs utilities installed to make the process painless - it's all open source, so if you want to see what it's doing, you can look at it | 09:14 |

| kandinski | tritium: but that's good news: it means it doesn't scoff at "apt-get upgrade". thanks for the help | 09:15 |
| Gnea | gartral: lol thanks | 09:15 |
| tritium | kandinski: one thought -- since that file was corrupted, you might want to either reinstall that particular package after the upgrade is done, or apt-get source <package>, and copy that file to /var/lib/dpkg/info/ | 09:15 |
| tritium | kandinski: note that you'd have to re-enable the jaunty-proposed repo to do either of those | 09:16 |
| kandinski | tritium: before reinstalling, I would have to ... you pre-empted me | 09:16 |
| kandinski | tritium: thanks again, and good night! | 09:16 |
| javi | well so the problem seems to be that I've made something that has clerared the public keys I already had trusted | 09:16 |
| Gnea | skierpage: but if you're really not going to use it, I suggest taking a look at http://ubuntuforums.org as I am quiet sure that there are some specilized instructions on backing up whole partitions like that there | 09:17 |
| javi | I installed opera 10 beta yesterday, and now only the opera public key appears as trusted, all the others are gone | 09:17 |
| tritium | kandinski: good luck, and good night! :) | 09:17 |
| Gnea | quiet? quite. | 09:17 |
| javi | so, I'm suposing this is an opera bug, it add its key and removes all others | 09:18 |

| Getterac7 | so i just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on my desktop and grub can't find my drives or something now... My boot drive is hd3,1 ... but when i'm in grub i do "find /boot/grub/stage1" and it shows (hd0,1) which is one of my RAID partitions. :( Any suggestions? | 09:19 |
| gartral | Getterac7: reinstall grub | 09:20 |
| darkest_night | Myrtti: do you mean i should install the server kernel? | 09:20 |
| Getterac7 | gartral: how? | 09:20 |
| gartral | !grub | 09:20 |

| Gnea | bobbyyu: about 3.5 gigs | 09:25 |
| bobbyyu | I know that. | 09:25 |
| ghindo | bobbyyu: More software is included on the DVD than the CD | 09:25 |
| Flannel | bobbyyu: The DVD contains more packages on it (moot if you're machine is connected to the internet) | 09:25 |
| bobbyyu | Can I expect Samba to be on the DVD? | 09:26 |
| ziroday | bobbyyu: it also contains a bunch of langpacks, which you may need if you don't speak english and can't access the internet | 09:26 |
| Gnea | bobbyyu: if you're looking for more detail, please be sure to specify as such. | 09:26 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Flannel: does the dvd include ubuntu-restricted-extras ? | 09:26 |
| ziroday | Paddy_EIRE: no | 09:26 |
| Paddy_EIRE | ah | 09:26 |
| gartral | ghindo: I thought the dvd only contained extra languages | 09:26 |
| bobbyyu | Gnea: I just need a general idea. | 09:27 |
| yaris123456789 | if i need to start 30 multiple instances of a script...how can i do that in shell ? | 09:27 |
| Flannel | Paddy_EIRE: No, it just includes more stuff from main. | 09:27 |

| Flannel | Paddy_EIRE: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/9.04/release/ubuntu-9.04-dvd-i386.list | 09:27 |
| bobbyyu | Do you guys know if Samba is included on the DVD? | 09:27 |
| Gnea | bobbyyu: I'm really not sure... I think there's a list up on the dvd site | 09:27 |
| Gnea | yeah, that one | 09:27 |
| Paddy_EIRE | thanks Flannel | 09:27 |

| Paddy_EIRE | areels: what is it | 09:29 |
| bobbyyu | Alright. Thanks everyone! | 09:29 |
| areels | Paddy_EIRE: micros-fidelio | 09:29 |
| rexwin | install wine and then run from terminal : wine application.exe | 09:29 |
| ziroday | areels: it depends on the software, check out appdb and #winehq. You may have better luck virtualising windows | 09:29 |
| Gnea | areels: #winehq would be a more appropriate place to ask | 09:29 |
| areels | ok thanks | 09:29 |

| bobbyyu | In a franchised book store, a copy of Ubuntu comes with a Ubuntu guide book for $34 Canadian | 09:30 |

| ubottu | edem1: 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 | 09:30 |
| areels | if i can success that will be first in turkey | 09:30 |

| Paddy_EIRE | yaris123456789: perhaps #bash would be more appropriate | 09:33 |
| gartral | Getterac7: did you follow them too the letter, or did you make the appropiate changes for our boot device? | 09:33 |
| Randabis | maybe it is transmission slowing things down...or compiz | 09:33 |
| Getterac7 | Randabis: probably your intel audio sound chip is causing issues. | 09:33 |
| Gnea | yaris123456789: just write a script that has 30 lines of: sh script.sh & | 09:33 |
| Randabis | Getterac7: really? | 09:33 |

| gartral | Flannel: if emerald is obsolete, then what's replaced it? compiz+metacity looks and runs like crap | 09:54 |
| ziroday | !emerald | gartral | 09:54 |
| ubottu | gartral: emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. | 09:54 |
| Alex__________ | gartral: compiz runs like crap period >.> | 09:54 |
| gladiator | Boohbah: gnome-mplayer 0.9.4-1 mplayer 3:1.0~svn-r29169-1 | 09:54 |
| gartral | Alex__________: not in my experiences | 09:54 |
| Getterac7 | HUZZA, for anyone who cares about my grub problems... i ended up doing "root (hd3,1)" then "setup (hd3)" NOT (hd0) like all the guides said... this correctly installed the MBR in my default bootable drive. | 09:55 |
| Alex__________ | TheHurricane: Um... well... | 09:55 |
| gartral | Getterac7: that's what I suggested! | 09:55 |
| Alex__________ | gartral: It makes flash and java glitch for me... as well as messing up my screensaver | 09:56 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: ahh there you go, did you install that mplayer from some non-standard repo? | 09:56 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: because the version number is different | 09:56 |
| Alex__________ | TheHurricane: Do you have compizconfig settings manager installed? | 09:56 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: you should install this version http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/mplayer | 09:56 |
| gartral | Alex__________: huh... flash never worked for me, java... well java is just slow regardless, and I dont use xscreensaver, i use gscreensaver :X | 09:56 |
| gladiator | Boohbah: i dont remember exactly .. i mustve followed some howto or something because i was having problems with audio and video playback ... | 09:57 |

| Boohbah | gladiator: http://packages.medibuntu.org/intrepid/mplayer.html | 10:00 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: the medibuntu intrepid mplayer package depends on libartsco | 10:00 |
| Boohbah | libartsc0 | 10:00 |
| Alex__________ | gartral: It's not the hardware end for me >.> | 10:01 |
| mintux | which effect in compiz fade windows using scroll ? | 10:01 |
| gladiator | Boohbah: http://pastie.org/502594 | 10:01 |

| gladiator | Boohbah: so i should just apt-get install libartsc0? | 10:02 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: no | 10:02 |
| === breamm is now known as |_ocke | ||
| Boohbah | gladiator: ok, so it looks like you don't have medibuntu repo's currently enabled in sources.list | 10:02 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: so, add the medibuntu jaunty repo and upgrade mplayer | 10:02 |
| CaveMan | Yo Yo yO PeoPle!! WaZZaP?!?? | 10:02 |

| gartral | Alex__________: whats giving you problems? and why do you have 10 underscores after your name? | 10:02 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: brb | 10:03 |
| CaveMan | i am looking for a cool bash shell script (to run in gnome-terminal) that show's random data, so i can pimp my mediacenter in the livingroom | 10:03 |
| Alex__________ | gartral: 1, 2, 3 and 4 underscores were taken... so I got frustrated | 10:03 |
| CaveMan | do you have a cool random script??? | 10:03 |
| ziroday | CaveMan: cat /dev/random for random data | 10:03 |
| gartral | Alex__________: heh, at least that's a sensable reason :P | 10:03 |
| ziroday | CaveMan: or cat /dev/urandom for even more random data | 10:04 |
| Alex__________ | gartral: Compizfusion makes flash games flicker and if anything gets on top of any section of a java app the entire thing turns white. | 10:04 |
| hskill | will an amd athlon 64 x2 4600 2.6ghz cpu run ubuntu-64? | 10:04 |

| TheHurricane_ | sorry... i had to do a restart,as my system frozed.now ... if i chose "none" at visual effects the minimaze,maximize and close buttons appear .. but if i chose "normal" they don't appear anymore and the terminal appears as a white square.. what can i do? | 10:04 |
| DaveCo | can someone direct me to a web page that will help me play VCDs in 9.04? | 10:04 |
| CaveMan | that looks good, but that data makes some sound and it look more alien language than hacker-slang | 10:05 |
| CaveMan | i wanna more some data like when you compiling some stuff like openoffice | 10:05 |
| CaveMan | that is art | 10:05 |
| Alex__________ | TheHurricane: Do you have compiz settings manager installed? | 10:05 |

| TheHurricane_ | Alex_____ as i said from the start i`m kinda newbie with linux ... i don`t really understand that "compiz" settings mean... this thing happened to me after instaling NVIDIA X Server | 10:06 |
| CaveMan | "error not find" | 10:06 |
| CaveMan | and so on | 10:06 |
| gartral | Alex__________: and im assuming you have the restricted drivers installed | 10:06 |

| gladiator | i did this: http://bapoumba.wordpress.com/2009/03/30/medibuntu-non-free-codecs-for-jaunty/ .. and then apt-get upgrade mplayer .. | 10:12 |
| Libra102 | how can repair this menu? | 10:12 |

| Boohbah | gladiator: do you have a new version of mplayer now? | 10:13 |
| TheHurricane_ | Alex________ : ok,i`ve kinda selected what effects i would like to have but when i click close nothing happens. | 10:14 |
| gladiator | Boohbah: no | 10:14 |
| gladiator | Boohbah: 3:1.0~svn-r29169-1 | 10:14 |
| Alex__________ | TheHurricane: What I wanted you to try was to unclick "Window Decoration" then log out and back in... that MIGHT fix it. | 10:15 |
| pawelek | lt | 10:16 |
| abls | hello | 10:16 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: remove that and install the medibuntu version | 10:17 |

| abls | 第一次进，晕头晕脑的 | 10:19 |
| TheHurricane | Besides that,none of the other effects i`ve marked aren`t doing what it says they do. | 10:19 |
| amitprakash | hi... where do i get the pgp key to add ppa.launchpad to my repos? | 10:19 |
| ziroday | amitprakash: this script http://popey.com/Easy_Script_To_Get_And_Install_PPA_GPG_Keys can help you | 10:20 |
| jrib | amitprakash: the ppa page for the repo on launchpad | 10:20 |
| Alex__________ | TheHurricane: It kinda sounds like there is something wrong with metacity, but I'm not sure what to tell you to fix it... And the other effects part... are you on normal or extra effects? | 10:20 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: sudo apt-get remove mplayer && sudo apt-get install mplayer | 10:21 |
| Boohbah | gladiator: 'sudo apt-get update' first | 10:21 |
| TheHurricane | Alex_______: now i`m on normal.but if i switch on extra there is no difference.if i switch to none it shows me the borders of the window along with min,max and close buttons | 10:21 |
| Alex__________ | TheHurricane: I meant that some of the effects that you were saying weren't changing anything... you have to be on extra for most of them | 10:22 |
| Alex__________ | TheHurricane: The window border part the only thing I can think of is that your metacity is corrupted or broken or something... | 10:23 |
| Alex__________ | TheHurricane: Just to get something you could try putting an emerald theme... just so you have SOMETHING... | 10:23 |
| tanveer | hw do i do the cube i hav it enabled? | 10:23 |
| ziroday | !ccsm | tanveer | 10:24 |
| ubottu | tanveer: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 10:24 |
| Alex__________ | tanveer: Do you have rotate cube enabled? | 10:24 |
| tanveer | i have that | 10:24 |
| TheHurricane | Alex______ sorry for the dumb question that i`ll ask you but : how to add the emerald theme? | 10:24 |
| tanveer | rotate cube? | 10:24 |
| Alex__________ | It's another effect you have to activate to actually use the cube | 10:24 |
| Alex__________ | TheHurricane: First sudo apt-get install emerald | 10:24 |
| ziroday | tanveer: then you need to enable the necessary addons | 10:24 |
| ziroday | !emerald | TheHurricane | 10:24 |
| ubottu | TheHurricane: emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. | 10:24 |

| Boohbah | gladiator_: i'm guessing some mplayer library dependencies need to be updated | 10:38 |
| alkisg | owen1: that's what my *left* alt does. My right key doesn't do that (like yours) because it's a compose key. | 10:38 |

| boss_mc | bene-d: it's a BIG job though, takes two hours on my machine | 10:52 |

| extor | So I installed ubuntu via PXE but all I got was a command shell install. The menu didnt even ask me to choose whether to install gnome/office etc | 11:02 |
| coz_ | Llewxam, then just wait until tomorrow perhaps now all pacakges are available or something is up with the repo on their end I dont know all the possibilities when a pacakge is held back | 11:02 |
| voldenet | omg, to install ubuntu via unetbootin i need alternate cd... ;x | 11:02 |
| G_A_C | Llewxam: do you have the -proposed repositories enabled? I enabled them the other day and I'm seeing kernel packages kept back also | 11:02 |

| G_A_C | extor: try "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" | 11:03 |
| Llewxam | G_A_C, yes i have all the repos enabled. | 11:03 |
| boss_mc | bene-d: I assume that's what you need, I'm making no promises! | 11:03 |
| G_A_C | Llewxam: in that case I'd say your problem isn't actually a problem; this does happen sometimes in -proposed | 11:03 |
| boss_mc | :) | 11:03 |
| gladiator_ | reto`: hmm ... ok .. trying ffmpeq now .. lets see how much of a quality difference there is | 11:03 |

| good_new | i had to go ,bey,guys | 11:04 |
| boss_mc | Llewxam: unless you are actively involved in packaging QA then you have no reason to have -proposed in your sources.list | 11:04 |
| bene-d | boss_mc: looks like it. after applying the patch i'd still have to recompile the entire kernel, right? | 11:04 |
| G_A_C | Llewxam: when I have -proposed enabled, I tend to use "aptitude safe-upgrade" rather than "aptitude full-upgrade", this applies the updates which are safe to do but ignores the ones with any dependency/other problems | 11:04 |
| areels | how can i reach network share from terminal? | 11:04 |
| voldenet | tiyowan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows#The%20CD%20approach | 11:05 |
| coz_ | Llewxam, if a package is held back with all repos enabled likely it is not on your end | 11:05 |
| G_A_C | boss_mc: not always true, I enabled -proposed because of some Intel graphics driver bug so I could give feedback on Launchpad whether the -proposed fix worked | 11:05 |
| Llewxam | alright. and so for update manager no longer showing in the taskbar? | 11:05 |
| frybye | re: ziroday Hi - you still around...i saved a copy of xorg.conf.backup as xorg.conf and now have the normal functionality back.. but the prob with not being able to save the change in the screen res. is back as well...? | 11:05 |

| hoohaah | frybye: I'm having dinner soon, so just paste it for the chan to see | 11:13 |

| boss_mc | G_A_C: I made a live usb which has a full but minimal install on it too (for testing purposes), VERY useful for fixing broken windows machines | 11:16 |
| gangs20003 | can i use my daemon tools to install ubuntu? | 11:16 |
| G_A_C | boss_mc: I had one...I lost the pendrive! When will companies start making those darn things physically bigger as well as just logically bigger? :P | 11:17 |
| jrib | !install > gangs20003 | 11:17 |
| ubottu | gangs20003, please see my private message | 11:17 |
| boss_mc | gangs20003: no, the installer needs access to the HD that it can't get when it's running in windows | 11:17 |
| boss_mc | gangs20003: if you don't want to waste a CD, try the USB method | 11:17 |
| === tiyowan_ is now known as tiyowan | ||
| G_A_C | but yeah, it's very handy, and I should make another one | 11:17 |
| frybye | Perhaps somebody can see from my Xorg.0.log here:- http://paste.ubuntu.com/189526/ why pc starts with wrong resoloution?? | 11:17 |
| gangs20003 | thank you all | 11:18 |
| boss_mc | koichirose: surely you want all that music in your rhythmbox library though? | 11:18 |
| boss_mc | koichirose: then just copy a subset of it to you ipod | 11:18 |
| koichirose | no, just the songs I want on my ipod | 11:18 |
| atila339 | hey is there any way to get rocket dock on ubuntu? | 11:18 |
| jrib | frybye: what is the "wrong resolution"? | 11:18 |
| atila339 | i think it is open source too :) | 11:18 |
| koichirose | boss_mc: the 'subset' is something like 80gb, i'd have to go through it manually, folder by folder? | 11:19 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: You can use Songbird which has iTunes library import functionality | 11:19 |
| koichirose | mm let me see | 11:19 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: the problem is that itunes library is set to work on windows paths (C:\music\xxxxx), does songbird convert these paths too? | 11:20 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: hmmm.. let me see... | 11:20 |
| chocobanana | ;) | 11:20 |
| tiyowan | !awn | atila339 | 11:21 |
| ubottu | atila339: Avant Window Navigator is a dock-like navigation bar for the Linux desktop that positions itself at the bottom of the screen. Homepage http://wiki.awn-project.org/ Awn-Manager can be found the Gutsy !backports repository and in Universe in Hardy | 11:21 |
| frybye | jrib - my memory is not so good - but it was the one i used to hve on the prev. 17" mon. 1280x865 or similar??? | 11:21 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: have a look here: http://wiki.songbirdnest.com/User:Mpurses/Importing_your_iTunes_Library_from_Windows_or_Mac_into_Songbird_on_Linux | 11:21 |
| frybye | I would have to restart to check it - should i do that.. is important??? | 11:21 |
| koichirose | wow, thanks chocobanana | 11:21 |
| jrib | !fixres > frybye | 11:22 |
| ubottu | frybye, please see my private message | 11:22 |
| jrib | frybye: you can just read that I guess | 11:22 |
| atila339 | ubottu im using avant right now and i don't like it so much as i like rocketdock | 11:22 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 11:22 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: you can get the Songbird package here: http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=4214 | 11:22 |
| koichirose | thanks, already downloaded :) | 11:22 |
| tiyowan | atila339: In that case, Google is your friend. :) | 11:22 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: pleasure :) | 11:22 |
| koichirose | in the meantime... does anyone know how to solve the screen tearing issue (vsync) with videos with ATI cards? | 11:23 |
| koichirose | using ubuntu 9.04 64bit | 11:23 |
| yaris123456789 | is there something like "screen" where i can run scripts in teh background? doing & doesn't work. | 11:23 |
| atila339 | i tryied it and i only get null links with no solutions | 11:23 |
| atila339 | isn't there an other alternative for avant? | 11:23 |
| frybye | jrib ok I go check it - but the ubuntu system|display system is not being used here.. it re-directs me to the nvidia-settings thingy. | 11:23 |
| jrib | yaris123456789: nohup COMMAND, or COMMAND & disown | 11:23 |
| G_A_C | yaris123456789: "screen command"? | 11:23 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: there's a 64bit package there | 11:24 |
| G_A_C | that should launch your command in a screen, which you can detach from | 11:24 |
| yaris123456789 | jrib: thanks | 11:24 |
| yaris123456789 | nohup should do | 11:24 |
| tiyowan | atila339: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CairoDock | 11:24 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: yes, songbird is solved (if the tutorial works), I was asking about videos with ATI cards | 11:25 |
| jrib | yaris123456789: nohup is good if you want the output stored somewhere | 11:25 |
| atila339 | thanks tiyowan | 11:25 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: which graphics card do you have? | 11:25 |
| jrib | frybye: that's fine | 11:25 |
| mib_iaecb3sx | guys, need help!. my panel gone missing both the top and bottom! help anyone | 11:25 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: ATI 4850 | 11:25 |
| frybye | jrib to understand that stuff at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution one needs loads of background knowledgel that I don't (so far-) have.. ;=( | 11:26 |
| jrib | frybye: note you have some resolution related options in your xorg.conf... | 11:26 |
| jrib | frybye: what background knowledge? | 11:26 |
| frybye | jrib shure - I posted my xorg.conf | 11:26 |
| aviator | #ubuntu-fr | 11:26 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: I installed drivers and everything, even compiz works (although not that well), but I cant solve the screen tearing issue | 11:26 |
| frybye | well just understading the stuff in general... | 11:26 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: does the video issue occur with compiz disabled? | 11:27 |
| rojwan | Hello, I did a lot of searching for my problem and nothing worked. After installing a couple packages (namely the Catalyst Control center), Ubuntu boots up on a black screen with faint streaks of colour (faulty display). | 11:27 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: yes | 11:27 |
| frybye | jrib: can you take a glance at http://paste.ubuntu.com/189524/ and perhaps tell me what needs to be changed...?? | 11:27 |
| jrib | frybye: not really much to understand, it's just a bunch of procedures | 11:27 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: if I enable compiz I have other video issues such as video not resizing correctly if I resize the smplayer window | 11:27 |
| frybye | jrib - sure of one knows the context of the whole thing... | 11:27 |
| jrib | frybye: but it gives complete steps | 11:28 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: did you already check for relevant options in the ATI Catalyst control panel? Can you try and use VLC instead? | 11:28 |
| AgentHeX | update manager recently ran and notified me of a new kernel version. it's part of jaunty-proposed, but it's greyed out. it will not install in synaptic either. what gives? | 11:28 |
| frybye | jrib and I do them all - starting and the first or...? | 11:28 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: this is to be expected when you run -proposed | 11:28 |
| Nubunti | Hey | 11:28 |
| jrib | frybye: what resolution do you want? | 11:28 |
| yaris123456789 | jrib: thanks. & disown doe the trick | 11:28 |
| Nubunti | May i have private chat with some experienced ubuntu user? | 11:28 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: it happens from time to time, in a day or so all the dependencies etc will catch up and it'll install as normal | 11:28 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: how do i get the kernel updates? there's a bug with my wi-fi and video drivers, and i'm hoping this will fix it. | 11:28 |
| jrib | !pm | Nubunti | 11:28 |
| ubottu | Nubunti: 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. | 11:28 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: wait until they're finished, and then you can install them from -proposed fine | 11:29 |
| Nubunti | Right | 11:29 |
| atila339 | guys why does my apperearance some times change from extra to none? any ideas how to fix that? im using nvidia 9800gtx+ by the way | 11:29 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: yes, I have the same issues with all the players I tried (I tried smplayer, which is mplayer basically, vlc, totem) | 11:29 |
| frybye | jrib: 1920x1080 | 11:29 |
| Nubunti | Well, how would i do if i want to multiboot windows vista and ubuntu? | 11:29 |
| rojwan | Hello, I did a lot of searching for my problem and nothing worked. After installing a couple packages (namely the Catalyst Control center), Ubuntu boots up on a black screen with faint streaks of colour (faulty display). The forums suggested changing drivers with dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org, but the utility only sets up the keyboard, and nothing about video. Please help, I'm completely out... | 11:29 |
| rojwan | ...of luck. | 11:29 |
| frybye | but it starts each time with 1280xsomething | 11:29 |
| Nubunti | I have 3 partitions , C with windows,D with all my softwares, E which is empty | 11:29 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: i never thought the update manager would tempt me, but it has. and it is. and it's driving me crazy. i can't wait a day! gaaahhh!!! | 11:29 |
| frybye | which used to be right for my old mon that was 17" quadrat - but now have a 22" broadscreen... | 11:30 |
| Peddy | ion | 11:30 |
| jrib | frybye: I'd try the suggestions on that wiki page then, feel free to ask questions about anything you don't understand | 11:30 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: well if you're desperate then "sudo aptitude full-upgrade" from a command line will give you a few suggested solutions for satisfying dependencies...I wouldn't recommend it though! If you do that, and it breaks, then you get to keep the pieces :) | 11:30 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: can you set the Vertical Sync to always on in the Catalyst control panel? | 11:30 |
| frybye | jrib: ok - hang on... ;=) | 11:31 |
| chazco | Hi... can anyone suggest a good guide to using wpa_supplicant (network manager is broken for my card since 7.10 and wicd has other issues)? | 11:31 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: *sigh* i'm waiting for them to fix the iwlagn driver for WPA enterprise. it CONSTANTLY disconnects me. | 11:31 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: yes I did, it's all set to quality (always on) | 11:31 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: really? I'm on my second laptop which uses that driver and I've never had a problem :( | 11:31 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: actually, that's a lie, this is the first...my old laptop was iwl3945 | 11:32 |
| G_A_C | my mistake :) | 11:32 |
| chazco | I'm using iwl3945 and have WPA issues under Ubuntu... | 11:32 |
| yaris123456789 | omg theres a chopper circling my house.....with search lights | 11:32 |
| yaris123456789 | 3:30 am | 11:32 |
| yaris123456789 | im not joking | 11:32 |
| chazco | I think its this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/272185 ... but it seems to have ceased updating | 11:32 |
| G_A_C | I don't have issues on this laptop though, my work wireless network is WPA2-Enterprise | 11:32 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: i'm using a Intel 4965 AGN chip, and it's had massive problems with WPA Enterprise since 8.10. Hardy works flawlessly, though. | 11:32 |
| jrib | yaris123456789: we send them out when people abuse the enter key | 11:32 |
| Nubunti | Guys, can any1 help me with multibooting ubuntu and windows vista? | 11:33 |
| yaris123456789 | jrib: disown doesn't work....argh | 11:33 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: and it works perfectly on my WPA/WPA2 Wireless N router. | 11:33 |
| jrib | yaris123456789: yes it does | 11:33 |
| yaris123456789 | jrib: the script calls other programs like wget | 11:33 |
| jrib | yaris123456789: shouldn't matter | 11:33 |
| yaris123456789 | jrib: when i do php run.php & disown | 11:33 |
| yaris123456789 | i dont see wget running | 11:33 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: i wish i could grab the kernel modules from my Hardy install and force them to work in jaunty. | 11:33 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: that might fix the problem. | 11:33 |
| jrib | yaris123456789: disown just tells your shell not to care about it anymore | 11:34 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: I'm on a WiFi Link 5100 I think (same iwlagn driver though) and have no problems with the WPA2 enterprise network at work, nor my WPA2 personal network at home (or WPA personal network at my girlfriend's) so I guess it's a problem with the 4965 chipset more than the driver :| | 11:34 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: instead, i filed a bug report on launchpad. good luck ever getting that fixed. | 11:34 |
| chazco | Hi... can anyone suggest a good guide to using wpa_supplicant (network manager is broken for my iwl3945 card since 7.10 and wicd has other issues)? | 11:34 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: I'm not sure what can it be. I know that on VLC advanced options it is possible to choose different video modes. You can try and play with that setting. You can always wait for the next driver release which may solve the problem without any further tinkering. | 11:34 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: yeah, I'm waiting since ubuntu 7.10 for this problem to be fixed with ATI cards ^^ | 11:34 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: is there the option to try using drivers direct from Intel? | 11:34 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: well, it works perfectly in 8.04.2, but 8.10 and 9.04 have some newfangled way of handling agn connections. | 11:34 |
| chocobanana | chazco: that's strange. That card should work great on Ubuntu. Which version do you have installed? | 11:35 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: i don't know. where might i find them? it's definitely not in the Hardware Drivers section of administration. | 11:35 |
| G_A_C | you'd have to get them directly from the Intel site I guess | 11:35 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: I have an x600 on my laptop and it always worked like a charm! :) | 11:35 |
| G_A_C | not sure if you cold apply them to a Ubuntu kernel though | 11:35 |
| koichirose | :( | 11:35 |
| chazco | chocobanana - Works fine on WEP, WPA/2, but not the enterprise version... lots of disconnects. Theres a huge (>200 posts) bug report about it, but its stopped updating. Its an Intel 3945ABG. | 11:35 |
| frybye | jrib on the webpage they talk about - you can do this stuff if and this way if - and alternatively and I have no clue which to use - also could i use xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1920x1080 in ~/.xprofile when I connect the Monitor via DVi and not with a VGA Cable...? | 11:36 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: can you tell me your xorg.conf device section? | 11:36 |
| Nubunti | Would there be any risk for my harddrive data to disappear if i install ubuntu on an my empty :E drive? | 11:36 |
| chocobanana | chazco: oh, I see... Well, if there's that huge bug report, then it means that it's probably messed up... Did you already comment on it? | 11:36 |
| jrib | frybye: the connection shouldn't matter afaik | 11:36 |
| G_A_C | Nubunti: I'd say there's always a risk, always make sure you have backups | 11:36 |
| frybye | ok I go take a look at the file... | 11:36 |
| jrib | Nubunti: no, though you have backups anyway right? | 11:37 |
| Nubunti | Well i usually dont do backups | 11:37 |
| chazco | chocobanana - Seems to be a networkmanger + iwl3945 issue... works fine in wicd (except wicd has its own different problems) and other users on the same network but different cards have no issues with network manager... the bug report is quite old and has no recent updates :( | 11:37 |
| Nubunti | I have no external harddrive | 11:37 |
| jrib | Nubunti: well you should start. Trust me, one day you will (after you lose data). So just start now... | 11:37 |
| Nubunti | Well what kidna data are we talking about? | 11:37 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: it appears that Intel drivers are all in the kernel tree now, so there's no updated versions to download from Intel :( | 11:38 |
| Nubunti | system files ,softwares or documents? | 11:38 |
| jrib | Nubunti: data you care about | 11:38 |
| hmmm | hello there.. | 11:38 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: I have an automatically generated xorg.conf file now, since the fglrx driver doesn't support the x600 anymore. Now I use the opensource radeon driver. When I used the fglrx driver before, there were no addtional options used. I suggest that you take a look in the forums, there may be an howto available. | 11:38 |
| Nubunti | Ok,but can softwares be backuped? | 11:38 |
| hmmm | how to install bitchX on Jaunty 9.04? | 11:38 |
| jrib | Nubunti: you don't need to backup software really | 11:38 |
| chocobanana | chazco: Ubuntu version? | 11:38 |
| jrib | !clone | Nubunti | 11:38 |
| ubottu | Nubunti: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 11:38 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: so what's the huge difference between iwl4965 and iwlagn? 8.04.2 works perfectly while 9.04 is a PITA | 11:38 |
| jrib | !bitchx | hmmm | 11:38 |
| ubottu | hmmm: bitchx (also known as ircii-pana) was dropped from Debian and subsequently Ubuntu (see: http://dy.fi/afb). Consider using irssi instead. | 11:38 |
| koichirose | chocobanana: ok, thanks | 11:38 |
| chazco | chocobanana - Last version that worked was 7.10. Since then its been broken in all versions. | 11:38 |
| jrib | !bitchx =~ s/irssi/irssi or weechat/ | 11:39 |
| chocobanana | koichirose: good luck! :) | 11:39 |
| ubottu | I'll remember that jrib | 11:39 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: unfortunately I'm not sure, I skipped that card (my last laptop was a 3945, my current one is a 5100) | 11:39 |
| Nubunti | Ubotto ,im not really in to all those temrs you were using, im kinda new to all this | 11:39 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: is that the one with WiMax? | 11:39 |
| jrib | Nubunti: ubottu is a bot | 11:39 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: I don't believe so, I think the 5300 is the WiMax one | 11:39 |
| Nubunti | right | 11:39 |
| G_A_C | I think mine just does 802.11agn | 11:39 |
| chocobanana | chazco: is you SSID hidden? | 11:40 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: so what does yours have that 4965 doesn't? | 11:40 |
| Nubunti | Well what should i do with if my windows vista system files disappaer, since i have no vista boot cd? | 11:40 |
| chazco | chocobanana - Nope | 11:40 |
| AgentHeX | G_A_C: except a broken kernel module :( | 11:40 |
| hmmm | thanks jrib. let me take a look 1st | 11:40 |
| chocobanana | chazco: are you on a home network? | 11:40 |
| jrib | Nubunti: as was said, that shouldn't happen if you do the install correctly, but if you are worried, you should have backups (and you should anyway) | 11:40 |
| frybye | jrib: I read ".. A user's ~/.xprofile file is executed on Xorg startup if it exists and is executable. .." - and what it id does NOT exist?? Can I just make one and will it then be used.. and is the xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1920x1080 all that needs to be in the file in total?? | 11:40 |
| mrwes | jrib, wouldn't be easier to just do a sudo dpkg --get-selections > packages.txt and then copy the file to the new machine and do a dpkg --set-selections < installed.software | 11:40 |
| boss_mc | why doesn't icedtea-gcjwebplugin support signed applets? it did in intrepid | 11:40 |
| G_A_C | AgentHeX: probably nothing, features wise, it wouldn't surprise me if the features list is identical. They've probably just bumped the model number because it's a Centrino2-compliant wireless chipset, the 4965 and below were only allowed to be branded Centrino | 11:41 |
| chazco | chocobanana - Works fine on my home WPA2 Personal network (network manager or wicd)... any WPA enterprise network however doesnt | 11:41 |
| mrwes | er packages.txt* to restore | 11:41 |
| jrib | mrwes: that's what the factoid used to read. I don't know why it was changed, though I assume there is a reason | 11:41 |
| Nubunti | Okay jrib , but when i install ubuntu will i get the option to choose my :E partition or is it more complicated than that? | 11:41 |
| mrwes | jrib, seems complicated now :) | 11:41 |
| yaris123456789 | how can i make "Screen" attach and detach automatically? like ctrl+a and ctrl+d.....but im looking to do this in one line....like "screen -a -d command" | 11:41 |
| Boohbah | Nubunti: yeah, no use backing up packages which are replaceable. do backup your personal data | 11:42 |
| G_A_C | yaris123456789: I think "screen -d command" would do it | 11:42 |
| AgentHeX | Nubunti: just do a dry run. it will give you a graphical installer. as long as you de-select the choice to use your entire drive, you will be able to set it up yourself. | 11:42 |
| jrib | Nubunti: you choose the partition but it will not be called E: (you should look inside the partition after mounting it to make sure it is the right one) | 11:42 |
| yaris123456789 | G_A_C: yeah but that logs me out of shell | 11:42 |
| G_A_C | this would launch "command" in the background, ready for you to attach with screen -r if needed | 11:42 |
| mrwes | yaris123456789, yes, screen rtorrent works | 11:42 |
| Sarajevo | Join to #webcam . It's a sex channel where you can meet nice ladies. Help me to make it bigger. White pussy, black pussy, yellow pussy - we are not racists. Every pussy is welcome. | 11:42 |
| chazco | Anyone suggest a good guide to wpa_supplicant for 9.04? | 11:42 |
| mrwes | heh...nice | 11:43 |
| chocobanana | chazco: I see... The only thing I can suggest is to either use WiCD or use the development version of Ubuntu's Network manager that you can find in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~network-manager/+archive/ppa | 11:43 |
| G_A_C | yaris123456789: try "screen -dmS screen_name command" | 11:43 |
| yaris123456789 | G_A_C: alrighty | 11:43 |
| * jrib waits for freenode | 11:43 | |
| G_A_C | that's the command I use to launch things in screen on reboot | 11:43 |
| yaris123456789 | ah | 11:43 |
| chazco | chocobanana - Using wicd now but seems to have memory/CPU issues... tried the latest network manager build a while ago with no luck, will try again when i can. Thanks :) | 11:43 |
| yaris123456789 | G_A_C: darn not working for me | 11:43 |
| mrwes | G_A_C, you launch rtorrent on boot up with that too? | 11:44 |
| AgentHeX | gunna reboot and see if this bad boy can recognize some backported drivers. | 11:44 |
| G_A_C | yes mrwes | 11:44 |
| AgentHeX | l8r, room | 11:44 |
| chocobanana | chazco: OK, good luck and sorry for not being much of help | 11:44 |
| yaris123456789 | G_A_C: ah its working | 11:44 |
| mrwes | G_A_C, from /etc/rc.local ? | 11:44 |
| yaris123456789 | G_A_C: thankks. | 11:44 |
| chazco | chocobanana - Thanks anyway :) Its the bugs that make Ubuntu interesting :D | 11:44 |
| yaris123456789 | G_A_C: but how can i make it so i that i odnt have to enter a screen_name | 11:44 |
| chocobanana | chazco: hehehe... and sometimes annoying! | 11:44 |
| G_A_C | mrwes: actually I do it from my user's crontab, with "@reboot /usr/bin/screen -dmS rtorrent /usr/bin/rtorrent" | 11:44 |
| G_A_C | mrwes: anything launched from rc.local runs as root by default (I believe) which I didn't want or need | 11:45 |
| mrwes | G_A_C, ahh...that'll work | 11:45 |
| G_A_C | yaris123456789: I think you always have to enter a screen name with that command line switch | 11:45 |
| jjlee | has anybody had any success with a pci-e TV card (analog)? | 11:45 |
| G_A_C | yaris123456789: also, I prefer it because it means I can do "screen -r rtorrent" and always get it, not have to guess PID numbers, tty names, etc | 11:46 |
| tehboriz | anyone here know how to install grub2 on an inactive (not currently booted drive)? | 11:46 |
| yaris123456789 | G_A_C: i am fine with just random PID for screen names.... | 11:46 |
| mrwes | G_A_C, so the crontab would be just @reboot /usr/bin/screen -dmS rtorrent /usr/bin/rtorrent | 11:46 |
| G_A_C | yaris123456789: then I'm not sure unfortunately...maybe you could use $$ for the screenname? | 11:47 |
| tehboriz | :( please help me i can't get into any O/S at all >.< | 11:47 |
| yaris123456789 | good idea | 11:47 |
| jrib | !grub > tehboriz | 11:47 |
| ubottu | tehboriz, please see my private message | 11:47 |
| G_A_C | mrwes: yeah, I'm pretty sure that's all it says. I found I had to use full pathnames as the $PATH wasn't set, but that's not a problem really | 11:47 |
| kari | how can i run yacc and lex in ubuntu? | 11:47 |
| jrib | kari: install them and run them? | 11:47 |
| mrwes | G_A_C, ok, so I don't need the * * * * * before that correct? | 11:47 |
| jrib | !software > kari | 11:47 |
| ubottu | kari, please see my private message | 11:47 |
| yaris123456789 | G_A_C: yes...$$ did the trick | 11:48 |
| G_A_C | mrwes: no, you only need that for timed events. for starting things on reboot, just replace all the stars with the keyword @reboot | 11:48 |
| Nubunti | When i boot ubuntu, would a 4,7gb DVD-r work? | 11:48 |
| djdarkman | hello, how do I tell apt, not to upgrade a package? | 11:48 |
| mrwes | G_A_C, very nice, I didn't know that | 11:48 |
| mitkok | Hey, guys. Can anyone help me, I cannot access Services in System -> Administration. | 11:48 |
| jrib | !pinning > djdarkman | 11:48 |
| ubottu | djdarkman, please see my private message | 11:48 |
| G_A_C | mrwes: me neither, for a long time...comes in very useful now though! | 11:48 |
| kari | i used fedora. i'm not sure if i have to install any other file here to run lex and tyacc files? | 11:49 |
| mrwes | G_A_C, are there other @ commands that would work in a cron too? | 11:49 |
| Mortuis | Is there a way to change the color display level in 9.04? | 11:49 |
| tehboriz | jrib: prob is, when i installed grub using that method, it wouldn't even boot into kubuntu... i need an alternate way of doing this | 11:49 |
| G_A_C | mrwes: I'm not sure, what other events do you have in mind? | 11:49 |
| jrib | Mortuis: what is the "color display level"? | 11:49 |
| jrib | tehboriz: ok, but you might try explaining what exactly happened as well | 11:50 |
| mrwes | G_A_C, dunno...just interested in that type of entry in a cron -- knowledge is power :) | 11:50 |
| Mortuis | jrib, not sure how to explain it except by referring to windows. You can set a slider to increase the color depth of the display. Like 16bit, 32bit, 64bit | 11:50 |
| wiktor | siema | 11:51 |
| jrib | Mortuis: what card do you have? | 11:51 |
| wiktor | ? | 11:51 |
| tehboriz | okay jrib, simple. i had 4 parittions that needed cleaning, so igot rid of the windows ones and did a fresh install on them. after i restored my grub, it looked like it was reading off old config files which didn't expect windows to be in certain places... and not even letting me go into kubuntu | 11:51 |
| chocobanana | Mortuis: by default it should use amximum bit depth for ATI cards and 32bit for Nvidia cards | 11:51 |
| Mortuis | jrib, savage s3 I believe | 11:51 |
| jrib | tehboriz: what error do you get? Did you check the uuid in /boot/grub/menu.lstL | 11:51 |
| G_A_C | mrwes: very true :) | 11:51 |
| tehboriz | jrib: i wanna install grub2 on hd (0,4) and it will autodetect them right | 11:51 |
| chocobanana | Mortuis: why do you ask? | 11:51 |
| Mortuis | chocobanana, I'm having a problem when connecting to my computer with nomachine where, with this particular client, all .gif and .png images are tinted blue/green | 11:52 |
| Mortuis | google isn't giving me anything | 11:52 |
| abeeky | ubuntu 9.04 is Death when i modprobe -r iwl3945 ,howto fix it. | 11:52 |
| Mortuis | so I was wondering if maybe my color display level was lower than the server | 11:52 |
| Mortuis | or something weird like that | 11:52 |
| tiyowan | !elaborate | abeeky | 11:52 |
| ubottu | abeeky: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 11:52 |
| chocobanana | Moruis: that seems more like a color profile issue. Does the same happen if you use VNC connection> | 11:52 |
| chocobanana | ? | 11:52 |
| jrib | Mortuis: xdpyinfo| grep -i depth\ of | 11:53 |
| tehboriz | jrib: root=UUID=8c018b01-1733-45a6-a9fc-ff6ff95c6961 ro (is this right? :s) | 11:53 |
| chocobanana | chocobanana: And are you using Desktop Effects by any chance? | 11:53 |
| jrib | tehboriz: you need to check the UUID of your drive | 11:53 |
| bene-d | boss_mc: That http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=295 was not the right UDF version to apply the patch to after all. i give up. screw vista. | 11:53 |
| jrib | !uuid | tehboriz | 11:53 |
| ubottu | tehboriz: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 11:53 |
| mrwes | G_A_C, I just needed to change that to /usr/local/bin/rtorrent -- that's where the svn version is installed -- thanks again | 11:53 |
| Mortuis | jrib, depth of root window: 16 planes | 11:53 |
| alphaaquilae | i have a problem with ubuntu junty, when i minimize a window and maximize it, it takes about 1 secondes before it shows up, what does it due to? | 11:54 |
| Mortuis | chocobanana, I'm trying VNC now | 11:54 |
| tehboriz | oh my goodness jrib i have no idea what it's talking about in that page! | 11:54 |
| boss_mc | bene-d: vista's loss! If/when you upgrade to intrepid/jaunty/karmic(LTS) you'll get support back | 11:54 |
| tehboriz | can i just rebuild the menu.lst file automatically somehow? | 11:54 |
| jrib | Mortuis: you can set the depth in xorg.conf (see ubottu and man xorg.conf I suppose) | 11:54 |
| jrib | !fixres > Mortuis | 11:54 |
| ubottu | Mortuis, please see my private message | 11:54 |
| jrib | tehboriz: there's no page. ubottu just gave you a command to list your uuid. I don't know of a command | 11:55 |
| Nubunti | Read this step in a guide :Install a boot loader which can start up Ubuntu and/or your existing system., What exactly does this mean? | 11:55 |
| bene-d | boss_mc: so I guess I'll have to upgrade after all. thanks a lot anyway. have a nice weekend! | 11:55 |
| Mortuis | jrib, I'll take a look at that, thanks | 11:55 |
| tehboriz | jrib: any way to install grub2 froma livecd? i'm online right now. | 11:55 |
| jrib | Nubunti: ubuntu install will do that for you | 11:55 |
| boss_mc | bene-d: I'll try, exams on monday.... :'( | 11:55 |
| mrwes | tehboriz, to get the uuid of your drive(s) open a terminal window and type sudo blkid | 11:55 |
| jrib | tehboriz: probably. I don't know how though | 11:56 |
| bene-d | boss_mc: ouch! then good luck! | 11:56 |
| mrwes | isn't grub2 still buggy and unstable? | 11:56 |
| boss_mc | bene-d: cheers... | 11:56 |

| Mortuis | chocobanana, that still sound like a color profile issue to you? | 11:59 |
| chocobanana | Mortuis: aha! No, not a color profile issue. Then maybe you should have a look at nomachine's forums or see if they have an IRC channel and ask there. | 11:59 |

| Mortuis | chocobanana, I was afraid you'd say that. Been having trouble with that route. I'm thinking I'll just VNC from this machine since they're both on the same LAN. | 12:00 |
| tim__ | Hecate: is there a tutorial how to switch? | 12:00 |

| === giovanni is now known as condor | ||
| minimec | tim__: You will have to do a clean install. If you are lucky, you have a separate /home partition. | 12:02 |
| Mortuis | chocobanana, yeah, I normally use NX because it's already set up and it's faster when connecting outside my LAN. But within the LAN I think VNC will be fine. I'm either not using the right search criteria or I'm the only person with this problem. ;-) | 12:02 |
| Hecate | tim__, copying your old home directory (the one on the 32bit install) to your new install will save you a lot of trouble. as will creating a list of your installed packages, so you can easily reinstall them. | 12:03 |
| tim__ | Hecate: how can i create the list? or is it done manually? | 12:03 |
| Mortuis | chocobanana, thanks for the help | 12:03 |
| chocobanana | Mortuis: pleasure :) | 12:03 |
| Hecate | tim__, i think synaptic can do it. let me take a look. | 12:04 |
| tim__ | ok | 12:04 |
| minimec | !clone | tim__ | 12:04 |
| ubottu | tim__: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 12:04 |

| tiyowan | G_A_C: That's correct - swap space can be shared. | 12:22 |
| G_A_C | hoohaah: if you want a VERY minimal install, then you could look into the Ubuntu minimal setup (maybe still called JeOS) | 12:23 |
| minimec | tuntun: <ctrl><alt>F1, then login, then sudo killall gdm | 12:23 |
| G_A_C | it's designed for virtual machines, so is very slimline, but you can still install stuff with apt | 12:23 |
| chocobanana | roxanna: I would then install a firewall. You can use install Gufw to help you configure it. Other than that you should be pretty safe if you follow the previous advice to only install software from the main repositories | 12:23 |

| roxanna | k cool | 12:53 |
| airbender | _spiff, should work fine under fstab. | 12:53 |
| mrwes | roxanna, navigate to the terminal in the menu, then right click on it and choose either add to panel or add to desktop launcher | 12:53 |
| airbender | _spiff, just check if that option exists for NFS or not. | 12:53 |
| minimec | alex-weej: you can edit your sources.list 'sudo gedit /rtc/apt/sources.list or enable it in Synaptic | 12:53 |
| alex-weej | minimec: i need to automate it | 12:54 |
| tiyowan | roxanna: You're using xubuntu right? In that case your terminal emulator would be "x-teminal-emulator", I think. | 12:54 |
| minimec | alex-weej: Write a script witch copies a new sources.list at the end of a installation. That should do. | 12:55 |
| _spiff | airbender: But if it is in fstab, how would X know not to start? My problem is not that home does not get mounted, but that it is not mounted at the time I log in. | 12:55 |
| roxanna | yeah im using xubuntu... is there a way to get it onto my panel? | 12:55 |
| airbender | _spiff, then create a session under gnome and manually mount the folder again? | 12:56 |
| airbender | _spiff, create a auto run session for gnome and let it run when you login | 12:57 |
| tiyowan | roxanna: Poke around. Also, I'd imagine the folks in #xubuntu would know quite a bit about Xfce. | 12:57 |
| alex-weej | minimec: bit lame though as i'd have to try and detect if it's already done | 12:57 |

| tones | tiyowan: mm, id be a hypocrite not to, thanks ;) | 12:59 |
| _spiff | airbender: I would rather have the init-script (which does the mount) wait until the mount is done, before starting X. I have been running Gentoo for years, and recently switched to Ubuntu on my desktop. Never had this problem before. | 13:01 |

| tiyowan | zet_: What's in that package? | 13:01 |
| zet_ | gnome-commander-1.2.7 | 13:02 |
| airbender | _spiff, that's what I talked about. See if there is an option for networking delay like _netdev (network device), and you are good to go | 13:02 |
| tiyowan | zet_: I'm sure that's available in the repos. "sudo apt-get install gnome-commander" | 13:02 |
| Nubunti | meh i got md5 sums are different AGAIN | 13:03 |
| _spiff | airbender: Ahh, OK. I didn't realize that was what would happen from putting it in /etc/fstab. Thanks, I will check it out. | 13:03 |

| airbender | _spiff, http://linux.die.net/man/5/nfs maybe the timeout parameter will work. I guess. | 13:07 |
| _spiff | airbender: I found /etc/inid.d/mountnfs.sh, which seems to do what I want, but perhaps I need to move gdm from S30 to some later point. | 13:07 |
| Nubunti | alright,well the problem is torrents may contain virus.. | 13:07 |
| Nubunti | there is no official torrent? | 13:07 |
| airbender | _spiff, good point. | 13:07 |
| Nubunti | nvm i found one | 13:08 |
| Jeruvy | xenocrates: no it will need to be downloaded from the repository. The alternate cd includes all the packages for installation so you don't need to download (but you will for updates) those. | 13:08 |
| tiyowan | Nubunti: After downloading the image using the torrent, run an MD5 check on it to confirm that it's virus-free. | 13:08 |
| Nubunti | will do | 13:09 |

| Tyrath | i'm trying to mount an iso, but I can't for the life of me figure out what it's file system type is. Every file system type i've used so far has failed (ie, iso9660, ext3, ext2, ext4, vfat) if I don't specify a file system type it says that I need to specify one. How do I open this .iso file? On Windows I used daemon tools to open it and it worked | 13:14 |
| mechdave | Tyrath, You need to mount it as a loop filesystem | 13:15 |
| Boohbah | Tyrath: mount -o loop disk1.iso /mnt/disk | 13:15 |
| Boohbah | Tyrath: no fs type needed | 13:15 |
| mechdave | Tyrath, eg: sudo mount -o loop /iso/name /mount/point | 13:15 |

| Tyrath | mechdave: yeah, but I'm escaping the spaces - and that was the output of file blah.iso | 13:21 |

| Tyrath | tiyowan: mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 13:23 |
| grawity | Tyrath: Maybe Daemon doesn't care about the extension either, and tries all formats known to it? foo.iso might be a NRG or whatever, and it still open. | 13:23 |
| Boohbah | Tyrath: it is using some format that 'file' and 'mount' don't understand... can you get any more information on the format by looking at the file in windows? | 13:23 |

| lungan1 | Is there a way to repair an ubuntu installation, without loosing everything on the disk? | 13:27 |
| grawity | lungan1: Depends on what's broken. | 13:27 |
| lungan1 | kernel is gone | 13:27 |
| mechdave | Tyrath, no, sudo mount -o loop /absolute/path/to/file /mount/point | 13:27 |
| chazco | Jeruvy - Been discussed on here loads of times... wifi broken with certain card combinations, tcp_window_scaling broken and in 9.04 broken video playback and evtouch. Bug reports exist for all these. | 13:27 |

| kFj | hi.. have anyone found the solution for the problem regarding not having permission to play dvd movies? data dvds/cds is no problem... | 13:27 |
| lungan1 | tiyowan, the problem is that the kernel 2.6.28-11-generic has a graphic bug, and I deleted the older kernel by mistake | 13:27 |
| steromfel | Anyone here ever got a USB disk containing two logical devices (under GNU/Linux, it is recognized as sdb and sdc)? | 13:28 |

| MDNZ | lshw | 13:28 |
| njbair | What happened to the startup order in gnome-session-properties? There's no way to set that anymore. | 13:28 |
| mechdave | Tyrath, unless you have a kernel that doesn't support the loop filesystem... unlikely but possible | 13:28 |
| Tyrath | mechdave: exactly what I'm typing is: sudo mount -o loop /media/No\ Name/backup/\(Game\)\ -\ WarCraft\ 3\ Reign\ of\ Chaos\ \(\ Full\ Retail\ \).iso /mnt/xdrv/ | 13:28 |

| Nehyx | MDNZ: but in graphic? | 13:29 |
| grawity | Tyrath: This is unrelated, but why don't you simply quote the filename instead\ of\ escaping\ all\ the\ spaces? | 13:29 |
| tiyowan | lungan1: Um - that's not a situation. :( | 13:29 |
| lungan1 | tiyowan, or I have the 2.6.28-11-generic, who has the graphic bug at boot | 13:29 |
| Tyrath | grawity: i'll cd to the path then, but i doubt it will make much difference | 13:29 |
| grawity | Tyrath: It shouldn't, it's just easier to type sometimes. | 13:30 |
| tiyowan | Tyrath: grawity may be on to something. Try renaming the file so that it doesn't have any spaces, and then try mounting it again. | 13:30 |

| lungan1 | tiyowan, depends on what you mean, im in recovery mode right now, running with network on the computer that has the problem.. | 13:31 |
| ziroday | grawity: heh, I'm sure he got the message | 13:32 |
| Tyrath | mechdave tiyowan Boohbah grawity : I'm typing: sudo mount -o loop WarcraftIII.iso /mnt/xdrv/, the result is: mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 13:32 |
| jjbin | hi how do I check it is in or not in the soft source about a soft I need | 13:32 |
| MDNZ | lungan1: well if you got a second hard drive, you can just boot from it and place the kernel on your other HDD | 13:32 |
| grawity | Tyrath: Add an -t iso9660 before the -o | 13:32 |
| _spiff | airbender: Hmm. That didn't work. I tried putting mountnfs.sh at S29. It appears that _netdev is valid for nfs, but AFAICT it delays mounting the nfs until after the network is configured, not delaying the script until the mount is done. | 13:32 |
| ziroday | jjbin: please rephrase that | 13:32 |
| lungan1 | MDNZ, is there not a way to use apt-get to download the kernel and go that way? | 13:33 |
| Tyrath | grawity: sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop WarcraftIII.iso /mnt/xdrv/ ---> wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0... | 13:33 |
| airbender | _spiff, you said you'd delay gdm script. | 13:33 |
| MDNZ | lungan1: You completely deleted your kernel? | 13:33 |
| jjbin | well....how do I make sure weather a soft I need is in the soft source of ubuntu or not | 13:34 |
| jjbin | where can I check or through a command in shell | 13:34 |
| lungan1 | MDNZ, no, i have the 2.6.28-11-generic, but it has a graphic bug so i cant start X, but i can use recovery mode to be in terminal with internet and so on... but i would prefer to install the 2.6.27-11 kernel, but dont know how to do it using apt-get | 13:34 |
| grawity | Tyrath: Well it is not iso9660 then? Hmmmm, head -c 1024 WarcraftIII.iso | od -h | curl -F "sprunge=<" sprunge.us | 13:34 |
| airbender | _spiff, or change time out parameter for NFS? | 13:34 |
| ziroday | jjbin: "soft"? | 13:34 |
| MDNZ | lungan1: not sure if you can use apt-get with that | 13:34 |
| _spiff | airbender: Yeah, and I thought that would be done by putting mountnfs.sh at S29 and leaving gdm at S30. The whole idea of mountnfs.sh should be to delay the startup process until the devices are mounted. | 13:35 |
| tiyowan | lungan1: One moment. | 13:35 |
| airbender | jjbin, aptitude search xxxpackage ? | 13:35 |
| lungan1 | hmm, apt-get works, and i have tried to download "amsn" just to check if the download works, and it did, but dont know what do write to download a working kernel | 13:35 |
| * grawity looks at _spiff's nick and is suddenly reminded of dto-002.txt | 13:35 | |
| sevenseeker | I have an intel 3945 wireless radio, and I can't get (on 9.04) more than 1mb/sec | 13:36 |
| airbender | _spiff, or it will be just easier that you create a session under gnome, and let it remount the NFS when starting gnome. It'll be easier | 13:36 |
| sevenseeker | dmesg isn't revealing anything so far | 13:36 |
| mechdave | Tyrath, Have you tried -t udf? | 13:36 |

| wibu | boss_mc, for life | 14:16 |
| wibu | :) | 14:16 |
| Nubuntu | Besides, must i not change file system to ext3 /4? | 14:16 |
| tiyowan | Nubuntu: Okay, well, in the installer, you should see an option to select your hard drive, if you've got two drives, then you'd be wanting to install to the drive /dev/sdb. | 14:16 |
| Jeruvy | kryle: one solution would be to use mediabuntu repo's to set up a streaming server, then simply point the xbox at that. Simpiler than trying to mount disks on/from your xbox. | 14:16 |
| === Morbror is now known as MorbrorFultjack | ||
| Nubuntu | Well the problem is i have 3 drives,C,D and E | 14:17 |
| tiyowan | Nubuntu: ext4 is the latest filesystem; ext3 is the older version. | 14:17 |
| wibu | boss_mc thanks | 14:17 |
| boss_mc | wibu: edit your ~/.bashrc and add the line export PATH="$PATH:/opt/google/chrome/" | 14:17 |
| Nubuntu | i dont know which one is :E | 14:17 |
| wibu | boss_mc thank you :) | 14:17 |
| Nubuntu | And when do i choose how much space i want for the ubuntu system files? | 14:17 |
| kryle | Jeruvy: ok ty | 14:17 |
| boss_mc | wibu: then either restart the terminal or type source .bashrc to activate it | 14:17 |
| wibu | boss_mc youve been really helpful :) on to google chrome!!!! | 14:18 |
| tiyowan | Nubuntu: Okay, well, you click on Places, and click on your drives individually to mount them (they should appear on your desktop), then click on each of the drives to browse through them and identify them. | 14:18 |
| hunterrose | So umm yeah FLV Mp3 extractor? :3 | 14:18 |
| Nubuntu | Im in the install step,not in the OS | 14:18 |
| Nubuntu | installation* | 14:18 |
| ganesh_ | can any one help me with sound problem..not able to play any music but login sound played normally | 14:18 |
| boss_mc | wibu: where did you get chrome from? there's a ppa for chromium-browser (the opensource managed version)... | 14:18 |
| grawity | Is it possible to run Ubuntu (with Gnome or Xfce) on a laptop with 256 MB of RAM? | 14:18 |
| tiyowan | Nubuntu: Well, -close- the installation, unless you want to risk choosing the wrong hard drive. | 14:19 |
| Nubuntu | :( | 14:19 |
| lungan1 | Is there anyway to fix the graphic bug in the kernel 2.6.28-11-generic at startup? | 14:19 |
| Nubuntu | then what? | 14:19 |
| hunterrose | Boss_mc: Google Released a Alpha Chrome Client for Linux and Mac OS-X | 14:19 |
| boss_mc | grawity: yes | 14:19 |
| wibu | boss_mc: google :) chromium installs part of wine right? i'd prefer the native version dont like wine that much. im sober now | 14:19 |
| Nubuntu | Meh,since im not so experienced i will just try the side by side tep | 14:19 |
| tiyowan | Nubuntu: Then click on Places up in the menu, you should see all of your drives listed. Click on each of them. They'll appear on your desktop. Click on them to browse through them to find out which is which. | 14:19 |
| Tyrath | mechdave: after a bit of reading : I've come to the conclusion that the only reason I could open it using daemon tools is because daemon tools emulate a CD-rom drive - Please see http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/debian-linux-help/105495-unable-identify-cd-rom-format.html - hopefully it makes more sense to you than me | 14:20 |
| Nubuntu | Remember im in vista atm | 14:20 |
| wibu | boss_mc, besides the chrome er., the gui of chrome is smoother rather than in wine | 14:20 |
| boss_mc | hunterrose: ah, any good? | 14:20 |
| Nubuntu | Brb, gonna select side by side option | 14:20 |
| mtnd3w | hi all | 14:20 |
| wibu | boss_mc, its awesome | 14:21 |
| tiyowan | Nubuntu: Oh ok. Well you'll see the Places menu when you boot off the LiveCD. | 14:21 |
| wibu | boss_mc, buggy though | 14:21 |
| hunterrose | boss_mc google suggests staying away from the alpha release until it gets to atleast Beta | 14:21 |
| boss_mc | wibu: to be expected and I guess it doesn't support a lot of stuff (flash/java being the obvious candidates for failure) | 14:21 |
| Houba1986 | Hi, I had a question please. I have Ubuntu 9.04 running on my Compaq laptop. I am trying to connect my laptop to my tv through s-video. It used to work great in vista, i'd just connect it, press fn+f4, and it would work by itself, but here it's not working. Also, i went into the display properties, clicked mirror screens, but it still didn't work. How do i fix this? | 14:22 |
| nsahoo | hi .. how do I set the FQDN of the ubuntu host? | 14:22 |
| wibu | boss_mc yup - yet. firefox getting too bloaty even without extensions now | 14:22 |
| hunterrose | Boss_MC now here is my question, I need a program to extract audio files from FLV video files :D | 14:23 |
| hunterrose | GO | 14:23 |
| nsahoo | i.e., fully qualified domain name | 14:23 |
| ace1 | nsahoo, /etc/hostname | 14:23 |
| hunterrose | wibu: Firefox has its uses | 14:23 |
| wibu | hunterrose, agreed, it has a lot. | 14:24 |
| boss_mc | hunterrose: can avidemux open flv? | 14:24 |
| exco | what do I need to take care of when moving my OS harddrive to a new computer? | 14:24 |
| hunterrose | i dunno boss_mc, I just recently moved to Ubuntu, and on Windows I had a small program called FLV extractor | 14:24 |
| nsahoo | ace1: and /etc/hosts | 14:24 |
| nsahoo | ? | 14:24 |
| boss_mc | hunterrose: if it does then you are done, I think it should | 14:25 |
| tiyowan | hunterrose: mplayer -dumpaudio example.flv | 14:25 |
| boss_mc | hunterrose: or that.... | 14:25 |
| === spydon_ is now known as Spydon | ||
| ace1 | nsahoo, edit /etc/hostname.. however if i recall the debian / ubuntu way is not to set hostname to fqdn, fqdn is defined by network connection domain | 14:26 |

| PleXuS | anyone can say me what the file was to adjust hardware assignment to ethX device? | 14:27 |
| PleXuS | need to change it because of motherboard swap | 14:27 |
| PleXuS | forgot where the file is :) | 14:28 |

| mtnd3w | how can i stop the keyring password prompt everytime I log in without disabling it? | 14:29 |
| nsahoo | ace1: thankx | 14:29 |
| PleXuS | boss_mc, thats the configuration of your network card file ;) | 14:29 |
| PleXuS | there is somewhere a file where you can change the assignment of your network cards | 14:29 |
| reto` | is it possible to make the desktop switcher wrap? | 14:30 |
| ace1 | mtnd3w, is your login password the same as your keyring password? | 14:30 |
| boss_mc | PleXuS: surely that's determined by the bios? (maybe not actually...) | 14:30 |
| PleXuS | boss_mc, no ;) | 14:30 |
| PleXuS | boss_mc, my old network card is assigned to eth0 in linux | 14:30 |
| PleXuS | boss_mc, so it uses eth1 now | 14:30 |
| mtnd3w | yes | 14:30 |
| mtnd3w | acel: yes it is | 14:31 |
| jrib | PleXuS: you can do it using udev but it's probably easier to just update the configuration files | 14:31 |
| boss_mc | PleXuS: are you sure that's not determined in interfaces? | 14:31 |
| Naville | Olaa?; | 14:32 |
| tiyowan | PleXuS: /etc/modules.conf? | 14:32 |
| Naville | 14:32 | |
| boss_mc | PleXuS: apparently /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules is what you're after (as google would tell you...) | 14:32 |
| ace1 | mtnd3w, is the keyring service starting on login? Which desktop environment are you using? gnome, kde? | 14:32 |
| boss_mc | PleXuS: or /etc/iftab | 14:32 |

| Houba1986 | i keep clicking it, and it shows fine at boot up and login screen, but once it boots, i get black screen on the tv | 14:35 |
| joeDeuce | lungan1: afaik, you can put whatever you like there, although i think it has to be all lowercase and must include atleast one number | 14:35 |
| Garethp | Thanks acel. Five answers are better than one, because then I can make a more informed decision of my own. Thanks for your answer | 14:36 |
| tiyowan | lungan1: Could put up a link to the guide that you're following? | 14:36 |
| lungan1 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild | 14:36 |

| ace1 | mtnd3w, yes if the key is stored in the default keyring, then at login it should be automagicaly unlocked | 14:37 |
| ace1 | mtnd3w, the application opening the keyring might be requesting a key from a non-default key store. | 14:38 |

| ubottu | the-killer, the first one of these: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 14:39 |

| Kingsy101 | can someone tell me, I am trying to do a tutorial and it says........ | 14:59 |
| Kingsy101 | You're pretty much going to need DAHDI. If not for any hardware then for the dummy timer anyway. Note that the stock CentOS kernels come with a 1000HZ timer and so don't need recompiling (phew!). Replace 'VERSION' with the correct details. | 14:59 |
| ace1 | yadu, watchdog is a kernel process | 14:59 |

| ShortWave | She got some updates or something, and now every time she starts up, her firewall/iptables settings are all set to DENY | 16:13 |
| boss_mc | TheFuzzball: that's basically what it's designed to do | 16:13 |
| geev | Jack_Sparrow: how please | 16:13 |
| ShortWave | Where do I look to stop that? there's nothing glaringly obvious | 16:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | geev one sec | 16:13 |
| becomingGuru | My ububtu doesnt print; Thats fine, but everytime I login it asks me there are docs to print.. and I have to close it manually... Its a pain in the ass. Anyway I can remove that... | 16:13 |

| ShortWave | boss_mc: "opened ports"? | 16:14 |
| boss_mc | !firewall | ShortWave | 16:14 |
| ubottu | ShortWave: 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 | 16:14 |
| TheFuzzball | boss_mc: woot | 16:14 |

| becomingGuru | BTW, whats are the wildcard characters in ubuntu How do I delete all files rm -rf * doesnt work | 16:28 |
| vick | How do i install a .deb package all that depends on it like if there is anything it would be downloaded ? | 16:29 |
| becomingGuru | whatvn, No I hate sticky note... Tomboy is better | 16:29 |
| vick | Because i have a .deb package no in repos, but it depends on others in repos | 16:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | becomingGuru Have you tried making a new launcher on your desktop etc and then dragging that to the panel | 16:29 |
| becomingGuru | I hv added it already but It fails to add on each bootup | 16:29 |

| boss_mc | vick install it with gdebi | 16:29 |

| Spongy | I think the lampp servers start on boot, so you don't have to start them manually. | 17:15 |
| _2eXtreme | Spongy: hmm, im not a fan of things starting on boot...id rather have quick and easy access to starting/stopping lampp from the application menu. | 17:16 |

| _2eXtreme | mneptok: okay, what should i use instead? | 17:21 |
| mneptok | _2eXtreme: XAMPP was created for distributions and platforms *without good packaging systems* | 17:21 |

| mneptok | _2eXtreme: because your best net at this point is to start from scratch. that XAMPP tarball probably littered the HD with cruft. | 17:24 |
| evanrmurphy | bobf: Have you tried the sound preferences option under System > Preferences, or does that not have what you're looking for? | 17:24 |
| jrib | !root | MojoRison | 17:24 |
| ubottu | MojoRison: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 17:24 |

| nathan7 | bobf: Cool! | 17:27 |
| Kingsy101 | boss_mc - its emtpy | 17:27 |
| bobf | Guthur: I'm not sure the question makes sense. Why wouldn't "sudo output" go to stdout ? | 17:27 |
| Kingsy101 | which is weird | 17:27 |
| Guthur | bobf out of the box it doesn't | 17:27 |
| mib_50zpshjk | ok there's any ready config for 8 port serial pci on boot/config | 17:27 |
| boss_mc | Kingsy101: that makes no sense... | 17:27 |
| Guthur | bobf anything marked [sudo] | 17:27 |

| nathan7 | Guthur: Oh | 17:27 |
| nathan7 | Guthur: That's stderr | 17:27 |
| nathan7 | Wouldn't make sense | 17:27 |
| Kingsy101 | :( | 17:28 |
| nathan7 | If you pipe sudo stuff | 17:28 |

| NemesisD | is there seriously no way to configure notify-osd? | 17:30 |
| evanrmurphy | bobf: Lost connection for a second... you should try "gnome-volume-control", but I'm concerned if you're not running GNOME that a GNOME-based app won't be helpful. | 17:30 |
| Kingsy101 | boss_mc - for some reason I am having problem installing DAHDI aswell, for some reason when I type chkconfig dahdi on it says command not found | 17:30 |
| Kingsy101 | dahdi start sayd package not found aswell which is weird because I did everything the tutor told me to | 17:30 |
| Seveas | Kingsy101, 'chkconfig' is a redhatism. Doesn't work on non-redhat-like-distros like Debian and Ubuntu | 17:30 |

| stillinbeta | Hi, I installed Kubuntu-desktop on my vanilla ibex install, and I can't seem to get rid of it. I've tried both aptitude remove and apt-get remove. Forum posts seem to think this will work, but thusfar it has not. Any suggestions? | 17:50 |
| johnfg | However, there's a bit of a problem with the pam.d files, I think that's due to pam-auth-update not understanding. | 17:51 |
| evanrmurphy | Drknezz: I'm downloading mIRC on a Windows machine now, anything I can do here in the meantime? | 17:51 |
| Drknezz | stillinbeta, you had to have installed kubuntu-desktop with aptitude so full-uninstalling works | 17:51 |

| Brucevdk | hmm looks like it does | 17:52 |
| stillinbeta | aptitude remove-full or something? | 17:52 |
| Drknezz | stillinbeta, slightly different AFAIK | 17:52 |
| stillinbeta | I'll hit up the man page | 17:52 |
| johnfg | My question: pam-auth-update asks if I want: Kerberos Authentication (which should be yes now); Unix Authentication (not sure about this); and ConsoleKit Session Management (don't know about this either). | 17:52 |
| evanrmurphy | Drknezz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/189712/ | 17:52 |
| Drknezz | stillinbeta, no, you had to have installed it with aptitude in the first place, so removing the metapackage removes all deps | 17:53 |

| DoMeN____ | hy I've got a question regarding a possible bug in 64bit ubuntu 9.04: I'm programming in c++ and I just wrote a x11 keyboard event handler... everything works fine except that in X11/keysymdef.h it says that right alt ( XK_Alt_R ) should map to 0xFFEA but what I get when I press it is 0xFE03... is this mapping correct or is this a bug in some part of ubuntu? | 19:30 |

| BloodyIron | http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_185.18.14.html | 19:30 |
| almost | mdm: bit complicated but the script will use mixmaster to send mail and news the nontmp file is where the data is stored before sending to mixmaster good if you have some pizza and beer to wash it down with | 19:30 |

| BloodyIron | anyways, how do i properly install the nvidia drivers from their website? | 19:32 |

| smooth | lennyf, Been looking for version of ubuntu to install on some old computers with mostly intel chipset but want them to user friendly enough to sell - thinking about xubuntu - what do think - right choice ? | 19:34 |
| BloodyIron | but when i kicked into X it said the xorg.conf was misconfigured and had to kick back into a low graphics mode | 19:34 |
| Guest67592 | Can someone please help me. im new to ubuntu | 19:34 |
| inphinit | Guest67592: Just ask your question | 19:34 |
| mdm | BloodyIron: did yuo remove the kernel driver before you restarted X? did you tell X to use the nvidia driver? when X exited did it give you an error? any errors? | 19:34 |
| smooth | archlight, swett sounds better n better will do some checking it out. | 19:34 |
| smooth | *sweet | 19:35 |
| jfm | man i just had to install my os the 5 time | 19:35 |
| lennyf | smooth: probably ok, easy to configure like windows. takes 100-150MB ram. | 19:35 |
| BloodyIron | mdm: yes i removed the kernel driver before i killed X. i told X to use the nvidia driver. when it exited it didnt kick back to CLI, it gave me the options to continue in a low graphics mode and a few other options. | 19:35 |
| Nationiant | Hey, how can you set up your keyboard, like that ex. two letters combination changes the desktop? | 19:35 |

| Joeseph | Why is Ndiswrapper-common and ndiswrapper and ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 not installed in the default ubuntu instalation? I always need them to connect to the internet to get every other program I need, and it is very obnoxious to have to use the cd to install them. | 19:36 |
| BitPlacebo | I tried to install 9.04 desktop from a cd that md5checksum is fine and checked integrity (its fine). It doesn't get very far in the install process. I get the Ubuntu progress bar, then the desktop turns brown with a pattern and the computer freezes. Keyboard Caps and Scroll Lock lights blink? | 19:36 |
| G_A_C | BitPlacebo: I think that's a kernel panic :( | 19:36 |
| smooth | lennyf, yea - my choice would be flux - but market I will be advertising in is 99% windows people. | 19:36 |
| mdm | BloodyIron: run X -verbose 5 > /tmp/Xlog 2>&1 &, exit it with ctrl-alt-bksp and pastebing /tmp/Xlog | 19:36 |

| almost | mdm: ok read here http://pastebin.com/m54b79784 | 19:37 |
| Guest67592 | so, any ideas of how i do it? | 19:38 |
| mdm | almost: thats is how apache is setup, as default | 19:38 |
| Guest67592 | ......... | 19:39 |
| almost | mdm: have i done what the i have just pasted | 19:39 |
| lennyf | Guest67592: not sure what you are trying to do exactly. | 19:39 |
| mdm | almost is cgi-bin in /var/www or /usr/lib and what is in /var/www | 19:39 |

| archlight | does anyone know how to change the time format in bmpanel from 24-hr to 12-hr? | 19:40 |
| erUSUL | BitPlacebo: Keyboard Caps and Scroll Lock lights blink? <<<< that's a kernel panic the BSOD in linux... the ubuntu kernel does not like your hardware at all | 19:40 |
| Guest67592 | Me, i am trying to make ubuntu use the entire external hard drive, yet when i tried it once, it wiped me external and everything went blacnk... | 19:40 |
| Guest67592 | it also wiped my internal as well | 19:41 |
| lennyf | Guest67592: so you are trying to have the os on the external drive? | 19:41 |
| BitPlacebo | so kernal panic means i can't install linux? | 19:41 |
| boscop | I have an acer notebook and I can't get it open to add another 1 GB ram | 19:41 |
| Guest67592 | yes, the full hard drive, not a partition like wubi | 19:41 |
| Joeseph | I am trying to install ndiswrapper-commons from the cd, as it does not come default with the install. however, after I put in the cd, and tell it to use the cd, I am told to insert the 9.04 disc.... but it's clearly in the drive.... Any ideas? | 19:41 |
| BitPlacebo | Yes caps and scroll blink | 19:41 |
| erUSUL | BitPlacebo: dunno maybe changing something on the bios or passing the kernel some boot option helps | 19:41 |

| lennyf | Guest67592: the problem you are having is the external usb is not yet loaded when grub looks for it. | 19:43 |
| mdm | BloodyIron: run "X -verbose 5 > /tmp/Xlog 2>&1 &" then exit it with ctrl-alt-bksp and pastebing /tmp/Xlog | 19:43 |
| BloodyIron | thanks | 19:43 |
| mdm | BloodyIron: first you will have to exit from your display | 19:43 |

| Drknezz | !vinagre | Kalmi | 19:45 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about vinagre | 19:45 |
| lennyf | Guest67592: that's ok. you can install the drive internally as a slave, so two drives in the case. then the pc would see both drives and be able to boot from the slave drive from grub. | 19:45 |

| oscar | how do i save the /nick in irssi? every time i start irssi the nickname is my hostname again | 20:01 |
| remington | well - need it to work with one special site, mostly | 20:01 |
| remington | so i didn't try any other | 20:02 |
| lennyf | red_zZz: you can go to terminal and type sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst then you can add the lines for windows. | 20:02 |
| Firefishe | ARMENIAN: There you will find a button labeled Rotation. If your display supports it, the selection *should* be there. If not, there may be a workaround, but I'll have to look around for it. | 20:02 |
| ARMENIAN | Firefishe: I dont have that I'm in 9.04 and all I have is Display no Screen Resolution | 20:03 |

| Joeseph | ActionParsnip: "sudo mount /media/disk /media/cdrom" tells me that /media/disk is not a block device..... | 20:03 |
| lennyf | red_zZz: first look at the file and read the instructions. they are very clear. | 20:03 |
| red_zZz | lennyf WHAT lines i need to add ? | 20:03 |
| === oscar is now known as lungan | ||
| red_zZz | ok | 20:03 |
| ActionParsnip | you cant mount a mount point silly, create a symlink instead | 20:03 |
| ARMENIAN | Firefishe: and the Display menu has rotation but only options are normal and upside down | 20:04 |
| red_zZz | maybe they are very clear but english is not my native land) | 20:04 |
| lennyf | red_zZz: there are 3 or 4 lines to add, there are clear examples in the comment section. | 20:04 |
| Firefishe | ARMENIAN: I'm in 8.10, so our distros are different. Still, there should be some kind of x script that can do it. I'd google around a bit. | 20:04 |
| almost | mdm: its just that when i first set up the web page a lot of stuff went in modified anyway are you saying cgi-bin iand www-data are in the wrong place if so where might they be and how could I use the cp comand please note i will have to amend the script to find the nontmp file | 20:04 |
| ARMENIAN | Firefishe: yeah let me look around a little, but it's odd that it has normal and upside down but not 90 CW or CCW | 20:05 |
| Firefishe | armenian: I mean, GIMP can do it for a given file, so I wouldn't think that a simple 90 degree flip to the right or the left would be too hard to figure out. | 20:05 |
| red_zZz | lennyf explain me please how do u write "red_zZz:" at the beginnig of the line every time ? (i'm noob i know ) | 20:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Joeseph: /media/cdrom is already an folder so a symlink won't work. If you run: sudo umount /media/disk then mount the usb to /media/cdrom | 20:05 |
| Firefishe | ARMENIAN: yeah, that is strange | 20:05 |
| Firefishe | ARMENIAN: I'll look around, too...I have to restart my x server, however. I have a screen artifact that's driving me nuts...brb. | 20:05 |
| lungan | Is there a way in irssi so all the "has joined server" "has quit" and so on dont appears in the windows? | 20:06 |
| lennyf | red_zZz: just take your time. this is how you learn. I up arrow to quickly repeat the prior input. also, i start to type your name and tab complete it. | 20:06 |

| red_zZz | lennyf: ok thanks | 20:06 |
| Joeseph | Out of curiosity, why are my hard drives labled as "sd*#" instead of "hd*#" if they are using IDE? | 20:07 |
| lungan | Is there a way to get rid of all the "has joined channel" msg in the channel window in irssi? | 20:07 |

| DesertZarzamora | somehow after upgrading my distro ubuntu 8.10->9.04 the less pipe of git stopped working, tryed different approaches, but the lesspipe wont work. When i do git status i get lots of files and the list fills my screen and scrolls | 20:12 |
| DesertZarzamora | has anything changed in lesspipe from 8.10->9.04 | 20:13 |
| Gnea | wWales: ..or gnome-terminal or kde-terminal | 20:13 |
| adammw | operator19: what sort of HD? USB I presume? | 20:13 |
| lennyf | operator19: is that you I was helping? | 20:13 |

| boscop_ | why are the icons on my desktop sooo small? | 20:13 |
| operator19 | yes it is USB - and Jack_Sparrow was helping earlier | 20:13 |

| adammw | operator19: well, first thing i would try is just to plug it in, see if it comes up under computer. if not, open a terminal window or go to the gnome partiton window (if installed) | 20:15 |

| vock | I have a question about installing windows after installing Ubuntu: I made 5 partitions originally, sda1 (NTFS for Windows),sda2(ext3 for Ubuntu /root),sda3(ext3 for Ubuntu /home),sda4 (linux swap),sda5(NTFS for linux/windows storage), there are 3 partitions, sda1, NTFS for windows, it's primary and flagged boot, Extended for Ubuntu, the two ext3 partitions and the swap, and a third primary for the NTFS storage. I'm trying to install windows now, but when I ru | 20:19 |
| vock | n the setup CD and after it copies to the C: drive (sda1), it reboots and says ntldr not found. Though when I boot off a liveCD, I can find the files it's looking for on the windows partition. I've read a bit about it and found that this problem can be caused by booting off of a disk that is not bootable. I'm just wondering if anyone else encountered something like this? | 20:19 |

| adammw | operator19, my fault, you'll need to work out which partition the NTFS is in without fdisk as it said it didn't support your GPT filesystem table | 20:23 |
| adammw | operator19, do u know that the drive is one whole partiton? | 20:24 |
| fccf | vock: complex question - simple answer...the windows boot loaderi is stored on the first partition where windows is stored, linux is technically placing it's bootloader before windows... that is why you are getting an error - the appropriate (easy) way is to install windows first and allow ubuntu to detect windows when you install | 20:24 |

| fccf | GoNTik: and you make it scroll even faster...have you searched around on ubuntuforums.org | 20:37 |
| Firefishe | progzy: in short, open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 20:37 |
| progzy | Firefishe: well .. ./configure do the job right ? | 20:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Firefishe and headers for your kernel most likely | 20:37 |
| Firefishe | Jack_Sparrow: indeed | 20:38 |
| GoNTik | fccf =>> Yes, i searched all forums what i know, but its still dont work. Meybie u can help me with that?) | 20:38 |
| Firefishe | Jack_Sparrow: indeed | 20:38 |
| adammw | operator19, i know what you mean. for safety's sake i would recommend using it in a windows pc, and possibly doing a scan disk or backup, rather than trying more drastic measures such as rebuilding partition tables or doing other nasty things | 20:38 |
| GoNTik | fccf =>> Its only 1 question) | 20:38 |
| Fihan | mdm : yeah cool, i can see my ethernet card | 20:38 |

| operator19 | right... well thank you for your help - I really do appreciate you taking your time to help me out | 20:38 |
| progzy | Firefishe: I must execute it inside the sources dir right ? | 20:39 |
| fccf | !ask | GoNTik | 20:39 |
| ubottu | GoNTik: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 20:39 |
| adammw | operator19, np, but i'm really sorry i couldn't actually do anything that results in a successful result. | 20:39 |
| adammw | arrgh just tounge tied myself | 20:39 |
| Firefishe | progzy: Yes, that is correct, usually the top-level directory, but first you have to have the build tools installed. Go to a terminal, type: sudo apt-get install build-essential, if you haven't done that already. | 20:39 |
| pisecx | guys, when I press Alt+F2 - what programs is starting? | 20:39 |
| operator19 | thats alright - at least you were willing to take my hand through it - its a learning experiance right? | 20:39 |
| pisecx | I need path, name, anything... | 20:39 |
| Firefishe | progzy: I'll help you through it, step by step. :) | 20:40 |

| Marfi | Tann: Just unplug it each time you need it, and put it in, and you should be good to go. That's just how the kernel sees them | 20:43 |

| ubottu | Fihan: To compile modules and drivers that are not bundled with the standard kernel, for more info /msg ubottu kernel , install the relevant package, usually called "<modulename>-source", and run « sudo module-assistant » (you will have to do this again after kernel updates). To prevent specific modules from loading, see /msg ubottu blacklist | 20:46 |

| badnerd19 | Adammw i think it is | 21:01 |
| Dervish | Hey everyone i have been wanting to try this out for along time now | 21:01 |
| adammw | badnerd19, exe files are binaries that are designed only to work with windows. Wine tricks the programs to think they are on Windows, so u can run them | 21:02 |
| guntbert | and badnerd19 in any case its doesn't seem to be an ubuntu support question | 21:02 |
| adammw | badnerd19, for a more detailed comparison see www.winehq.or | 21:02 |

| Drknezz | adammw: it is playing mp3's normally | 21:03 |
| badnerd19 | hey what make it hard to get used to linux is that there s not enough multiplatform softwares :'( which makes you can't leave windows ..... | 21:03 |
| fccf | Dervish: it will run on that - you might want more ram someday though | 21:03 |
| Dervish | i might upgrade to 1gb shortly though :D | 21:03 |
| guntbert | badnerd19: please keep to the topic | 21:04 |
| badnerd19 | oh sorry :$ | 21:04 |

| Dervish | my pc should be here wed so i will try it then. | 21:05 |
| Dervish | just wondering why does everyone think ubuntu when someone says linux? | 21:05 |
| adammw | Drknezz, ok, then well i'm out of options really. if it was 64 bit i would blame that but its not so i can't. the only thing i would say is close any existing programs, try rebooting and make sure that no other user is using the audio card (e.g. don't have amorak open). also you could try http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/ but it probablly won't help | 21:05 |
| Dervish | whats so good about it? | 21:05 |
| badnerd19 | hey guntbert now i have a message that i don't understand how to stop it :s it says that the libglib2-dev is not availabe and that the memory is not enough | 21:05 |

| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 21:06 |
| Dervish | oh ok sorry =) | 21:07 |
| adammw | i've heard people saying Vista is the best windows version. doesn't make them correct though does it? | 21:07 |
| mdm | Dervish: I would say pretty much the opposite allot of people think RedHat is the only linux distribution | 21:07 |
| badnerd19 | i think the best linux version is backtrack | 21:07 |
| badnerd19 | haha | 21:07 |

| badnerd19 | hey guntbert can u tell me what s the difference between linux unix and freeBSD ??? | 21:09 |
| Flannel | Kraft: Yes. I do. Please ask specific questions and stop repeating your question. | 21:09 |
| Ed54 | Kraft: there are plenty of other ways to get your ipod working on linux | 21:09 |
| guntbert | badnerd19: its not about being a noob or a guru or..., just about usability of this support channel :) | 21:09 |
| fccf | Kraft: This is the ubuntu support channel - you aren't going to get windows support here, try #winehq | 21:09 |
| Flannel | badnerd19: Please take that to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks | 21:09 |
| badnerd19 | except for the open source thingy | 21:09 |
| Kraft | Guys, I just downloaded iTunes setup, and I can't get it to load with wine to install; however, I'm sure there is a way. | 21:09 |
| Flannel | fccf: Wine is supported here. That being said, it's often a lot better to go to #winehq. | 21:10 |
| Flannel | !doesntwork | Kraft | 21:10 |
| ubottu | Kraft: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 21:10 |
| badnerd19 | oh guys im sorry don't wanna flood :( | 21:10 |

| badnerd19 | !trash | 21:10 |
| badnerd19 | what s that ? | 21:10 |
| Kraft | I wonder if you guys pulled your fingers out of your ass, and tried to actually help me, instead of copying and pasting useless information. Then, maybe, i might get what I need done, done. | 21:10 |
| adammw | Why oh why change the trash dir? it was so much better at .Trash | 21:10 |
| Flannel | Kraft: Again, ask specific questions. Please stop being so vague, it makes it impossible to help you. Also, a number of people have offered help, please stop repeating blanket statements. | 21:10 |
| deany | Kraft, if none of the linux apps work.. like gtkpod, rythmbox etc | 21:11 |
| adammw | Kraft, do u have wine and tried simply installing iTunes as per normal? | 21:11 |

| badnerd19 | i dunno why i get such a message | 21:11 |
| Flannel | adammw: There's only one bot in this channel. We have to keep people on topic because there's 1500 of us in here. It never hurts someone to take their offtopic questions to an appropriate channel. | 21:12 |
| susbwoy | Drknezz: woops, first one is libgstreamer0.10-0 | 21:12 |

| owen1 | how to find the keyboard i am using so i can use it in setxkbmap? | 21:34 |
| marky123 | Agion1: have you the right driver for the card? | 21:34 |
| Guthur | is sudo -k and sudo -K the only forms of revoking granted sudo permission, is there a super duper kill that revokes everything | 21:35 |
| kostya | Who understands Russian? | 21:35 |
| Guthur | besides a reboot of course :) | 21:36 |
| Agion1 | marky123: I have the basic xorg,conf with like no drivers in there.. | 21:36 |
| guntbert | Guthur: sudo -k doesn't revoke anything, you only to type your password again, what else do you need? | 21:37 |
| marky123 | Agion1: Aha! try installing Envy - this should find the right drivers for your card and install them. let me find a URL for you... | 21:37 |

| guntbert | almost: chmod u+x <file> | 21:38 |
| Guthur | guntbert ya that is what i mean, sorry i could have been more clear, its just I seemed to have found a way to persist the permission no matter what | 21:38 |
| guntbert | Guthur: strange, what happens if you open another terminal window? | 21:39 |
| Guthur | guntbert sudo -k or sudo -K are not forcing sudo to ask for a password again, though i does still seem to timeout | 21:39 |
| almost | guntbert: thanks | 21:39 |
| === billy is now known as smartasstronaut | ||
| Guthur | guntbert i can only persist it using a small python program, terminal seems to act normally | 21:40 |
| Guthur | guntbert but the access through the program never asks for the password after it has been entered and i can carry out protected operations | 21:40 |
| marky123 | Agion1: Done several builds this week and its been ok. It won't actually automatically install the driver - you have to select the one you want - it'll put a green tick by it. If it can't the right driver don't choose one. I think you definitely need the driver - unless someone wants to disagree. Here's the URL http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html | 21:41 |

| gcc | Всім привіт. Sorry. | 21:41 |
| guntbert | Guthur: ah, now I see: once you start a program with sudo it is invoked with root-permissions and so keeps them of course | 21:42 |

| Pritesh | yes | 21:59 |
| owen1 | jurij: no. it still shows me oren is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. | 21:59 |
| compusec | ok, i'll be waiting | 21:59 |
| Pritesh | does that mean i don't have permission to access it | 21:59 |
| compusec | adn reading... | 21:59 |
| fccf | Pritesh: what kind of server are you logging onto? | 22:00 |
| Flannel | owen1: You'll need to reboot into the recovery console and add yourself to admin there (adduser oren admin) | 22:00 |
| Flannel | owen1: Unless you have another user account that can sudo | 22:00 |
| Pritesh | fccf : backup server | 22:00 |

| fccf | Pritesh: ubuntu? | 22:01 |
| Flannel | owen1: Also, is it a command line? or a GUI? | 22:01 |
| owen1 | Flannel: after i hit 'recover' it loads something and ask me more question. | 22:01 |
| Desen | heya kids. any ideas how i can make Ubuntu memorize the DNS i enter after a system restart/shutdown ? I`ve tried manually adding the DNSs in files and in Network Manager/Connections. Nothing Worked. Ubuntu 8.10 + GNOME. | 22:01 |
| owen1 | Flannel: no i loaded x. | 22:01 |
| Pritesh | fccf : yes i m accessing from ubuntu .8.10 | 22:01 |
| Flannel | owen1: Recovery console shouldn't have X. Did you load it manually after it booted? | 22:01 |
| owen1 | Flannel: after hitting recovery mode i answered another question. | 22:01 |
| fccf | Pritesh: and the server is ubuntu ?.?? | 22:02 |
| Flannel | owen1: Where did you choose "recovery mode"? The actual verbage is "recovery console" | 22:02 |
| owen1 | Flannel: it was maybe 5 options. i choose the first one. | 22:02 |
| jurij | owen1: thats because u are not in sudo group, but I doubt your admin will add you to that group | 22:02 |
| Pritesh | fccf : that i m not sure | 22:02 |

| fccf | Pritesh: and you are using the username/password for the remote??? does this server require you to have a local key? | 22:03 |
| Pritesh | yes | 22:03 |
| Flannel | owen1: If you get to that screen, you've already gone too far (and aren't in recovery console). You'll have to reboot and try again | 22:03 |
| tonze | hi | 22:03 |
| jurij | owen1: is it your computer? or it's some remote server you want to sudo ? | 22:03 |
| owen1 | Flannel: i think i saw ubuntu 9.04 recovery mode. | 22:03 |
| owen1 | jurij: my machine | 22:03 |
| jurij | owen1: if you want to work as root in Ubuntu try this: sudo su - | 22:03 |
| Pritesh | fccf : i have file called known_hosts under my home dir | 22:03 |
| jurij | owen1: it will ask your for your pass and there your go... | 22:04 |
| owen1 | jurij: oren is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. | 22:04 |
| Flannel | owen1: You should be at the grub menu, which should list a few kernels and memtest. Choose a kernel with (Recovery Console) after it | 22:04 |
| lstarnes | owen1, jurij: sudo -i is preferred over sudo su | 22:04 |
| Flannel | jurij: That won't work because he can't sudo. | 22:04 |

| bone333 | but it just don't work | 22:05 |
| owen1 | the second 9.04 but recovery or safe | 22:05 |
| Pritesh | fccf : trying | 22:05 |
| owen1 | Flannel: that's the one i chose. | 22:05 |
| Flannel | owen1: Right, choose that one. | 22:05 |
| owen1 | Flannel: but after a while it asked me another question. | 22:05 |
| owen1 | Flannel: i hade maybe 6 options . | 22:06 |
| Flannel | owen1: alright, when it gets there, type them out and we'll take a look | 22:06 |

| luc_v | I have 2 design secrets that can make cpu's 5 times faster, i wanne sell them to AMD or INTEL, can anyone tell me how to do that? | 22:08 |
| Slart | luc_v: yes.. stop hanging around on IRC.. go pick up a phone | 22:08 |
| bone333 | o just wan't to get my teamspeak working | 22:09 |
| fccf | pritesh: for example like on a european keyboard they have the key for euro... in the us it is $ so if somebody had a euro in a password I couldnt access it unless I knew the alt+xxx combo for euro - could be any number of letters though | 22:09 |
| Pritesh | fccf : matter of fact i have special characters in my password | 22:10 |
| xonique | you try typing shell commands on a european keyboard layout, it will give you RSI | 22:10 |
| Slart | fccf: on my keyboard the euro sign is Alt-gr E... not alt-gr 4, which is $ | 22:10 |
| Slart | fccf: not sure if that is the case everywhere though | 22:11 |
| fccf | pritesh: ssh doesn't echo passwords so you can't tell if you typed the right password ... type the password into a text editor and copy paste to ssh password | 22:11 |
| Pritesh | ok | 22:11 |
| Guest66340 | nick pharos | 22:12 |
| Pritesh | fccf : didn't work for me, i have @ sign in my password | 22:12 |
| Pritesh | fccf : so i m pressing shift + 2 | 22:12 |
| iksik | anyone noticed issues on 9.04 with NVIDIA drivers? | 22:12 |
| Slart | iksik: no problems with my 8800gtx | 22:13 |
| luc_v | who should i call INTEL or AMD? I tried calling AMD but the CEO was never there | 22:13 |
| fccf | Pritesh: you might look at man ssh to see about using an identity file - you could have the correct credentials in a file to use on this server | 22:13 |

| Slart | ah.. | 22:18 |
| Slart | !info g15daemon | 22:18 |
| ubottu | g15daemon (source: g15daemon): Screen multiplexer for Logitech G15 Keyboard. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.9.5.3-3 (jaunty), package size 31 kB, installed size 200 kB | 22:18 |
| bkraptor | is karmic going to be a LTS? | 22:19 |
| SpenceKid | if g15daemon isn't in jaunty, then why am i getting this error? | 22:19 |
| sparr | When I press backspace in Nautilus, to go back, my internal speaker beeps. What is up with that? | 22:19 |
| Slart | SpenceKid: seems like g15daemon throws an error when apt tries to configure it.. not sure if there is anything you can do about it.. have you tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure g15daemon" ? | 22:19 |
| phobiac | bkraptor: What was the last LTS? I forgot. | 22:19 |
| Slart | !lts | bkraptor | 22:19 |
| ubottu | bkraptor: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Herron 8.04) | 22:20 |
| bkraptor | gutsy I think | 22:20 |
| phobiac | bkraptor: It's every third one that is LTS | 22:20 |
| bkraptor | oh hardy | 22:20 |
| Slart | Bruce: hmm.. no info there.. sorry.. I think it will be an LTS but I don't know | 22:20 |
| SpenceKid | Slart: i have not, but i shall try it now | 22:20 |
| Slart | sparr: it's an alert sound.. it can be disabled in system, prefernces, sound.. "Play alert sound" or something like that | 22:20 |
| SpenceKid | Slart: spence@H4x0R:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure g15daemon | 22:20 |
| SpenceKid | /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: g15daemon is broken or not fully installed | 22:20 |

| tavish | Hi all, I'm having a problem with Gmail, and the Gmail docs don't seem to cover my problem | 22:21 |
| bkraptor | intrepid, jaunty, karmic would be 3rd after a LTS | 22:21 |
| tavish | Gmail thinks that I'm a mobile phone and refuses to load the normal interface | 22:21 |
| Slart | SpenceKid: have you looked at launchpad? it might be a known bug? | 22:21 |
| tavish | and it's not just my account, or my IP | 22:21 |

| fccf | tavish: thats wierd .. I cannot access the mobile site direct from firefox | 22:23 |
| owen1 | is there a way to see keyboard model? | 22:23 |
| sparr | Slart: I know that. I do not want to disable the alert sound, because it is important for alerts. | 22:24 |

| kazagistar | lol, poor progamer | 22:28 |
| fccf | tavish: confusing enough / perhaps uninstall/reinstall firefox | 22:28 |

| fccf | guntbert: progamer: I guess that 's us | 22:36 |
| progamer | August23rd: Sourfeforge.net does seem to be dow | 22:36 |
| August23rd | thanks edbian and progamer | 22:37 |
| Slart | August23rd: this is a nice site if you start to question your own network connection http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ | 22:37 |
| tavish | edbian,slart: I reinstalled and it still thinks I'm a mobile | 22:37 |
| progamer | so this chat is kinda cool, if you say someones name it appears yellow to them? Thats neat! | 22:37 |
| webmaren | slart: SOL if that site doesn't work though | 22:37 |
| Slart | tavish: it's not something you've configured in some kind of google account | 22:37 |

| ryanakca | How can I put a limit on ressources (MEM) that a process can use? I know nice handles scheduling, but for ram? | 22:38 |
| edbian | tavish: I think that it is gmail's fault. Websites usually run some javascript (read the DOM) to tell what type of browser you're running. I think gmail is just doing a bad job of that. | 22:38 |
| guntbert | progamer: ah, I think you're looking for expertise better found in ##security or maybe ##networking (no offense to the fine and very knowledgable people her intended) | 22:38 |
| Slart | webmaren: there probably is a "IsThatSiteCheckingSiteDown.com" =) | 22:38 |

| brentv911 | What is the best IRQ client to run on ubuntu. I'm currently running MIRC through VINE. but was wondering if there was a better one. | 22:38 |
| Slart | ryanakca: take a look at ulimit.. not sure if it does what you want though.. but it's worth a try | 22:39 |
| brentv911 | I like ICE CHAT but can't get it to run | 22:39 |
| August23rd | Brentv911 i like pigin | 22:39 |
| Slart | brentv911: irc? | 22:39 |
| August23rd | yes | 22:39 |
| brentv911 | yeah IRC.. that is what i meant | 22:39 |

| mkanyicy | I cloned my partition into another machine using partimage, now F-Spot crashes | 22:43 |
| brunner | fccf: I don't have one yet. I'm just asking. | 22:43 |
| Flannel | dupondje: Because you've enabled -proposed, which isn't fit for human consumption (disable it!) | 22:43 |
| brunner | fccf: why not just say, "The binary driver works fine."? | 22:44 |
| August23rd | brentv911: as a windows admin, i can tell you that pidgin is something you can get used to very easily since it runs on both windows and linux | 22:44 |
| tavish | edbian: sorry, copy/paste didn't work. It thinks I'm iPhone with a Mac OSX-like processor | 22:44 |
| edbian | tavish: That's probably why gmail thinks you are | 22:44 |
| dupondje | Flannel: ok its only in proposed, but still, shouldn't be like that right ? :) | 22:44 |
| edbian | tavish: lol | 22:44 |
| edbian | good luck | 22:44 |
| x_ | hello all | 22:44 |
| fccf | brunner: both ati and nvidia are providing binary drivers for their hardware... also available is a opensource driver for nvidia | 22:45 |
| brentv911 | August23rd: Ok. i see pidgin in my application list.. I will take a look at that.. didn't realize that it would do irc also. | 22:45 |
| x_ | is there anybody with ubuntu 9.04 + hp 2133 ? | 22:45 |
| Flannel | dupondje: -proposed isn't supposed to be used. It's a staging area which means its not always consistent (dependency issues like that happen all the time, etc) | 22:45 |
| brunner | cool, thanks | 22:45 |
| August23rd | brentv911 btw, welcome to the linux world, which distro are you running ubuntu or kbuntu | 22:45 |
| tavish | edbian: no idea how to change that? Is it an ubuntu problem or a firefox problem? | 22:45 |
| Flannel | dupondje: Regardless of that fact that it's not always consistent, those packages aren't always tested, etc. I really can't stress enough that you should disable proposed. | 22:45 |
| brentv911 | August23rd: i'm using Ubuntu 9.04 on a Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop | 22:46 |

| jdahm | First off, let me preface this with saying that I have used linux for many years. I'm trying to install ubuntu netbook remix on my msi wind. I have downlaoded it three times, every time checking the hashes, but every time when I test the usb it says there is 1-3 corrupt files. | 22:47 |
| jdahm | Anyone know where I can find a completely working version? | 22:47 |
| colblood | try different media | 22:47 |
| colblood | or install from usb | 22:48 |
| colblood | i wont hold your hand thru the process tho, use google | 22:48 |
| jdahm | colblood: ... I am installing from USB | 22:48 |
| jdahm | colblood: I'm not stupid, I can install it myself | 22:48 |
| fccf | jdahm: problem could be your connection ... try using a torrent as it checks every part of the iso to make sure it is correct | 22:48 |
| August23rd | if you want to try kubuntu (which most windows ppl tend to like for its similarity in gui) windows7 ripped off the look of KDE4.x u can always add it as a choice of desktop instead of gnome by typing sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 22:48 |
| jdahm | fccf: tried that too. It checked the whole thing, it's fine | 22:48 |
| colblood | August23rd: and still there's a windows 7 theme in Kubuntu ;) | 22:49 |
| === andrea is now known as Guest76941 | ||
| August23rd | colblood: wouldn't doubt it :) | 22:49 |
| fccf | jdahm: how are you loading the img file onto the usb drive? | 22:49 |
| Slart | !kubuntu | 22:50 |
| ubottu | Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE | 22:50 |
| Slart | !kde | 22:50 |

| Hilikus | hey guys | 22:51 |
| Hilikus | i installed sensord and this is what i'm getting | 22:51 |
| brentv911 | August23rd: thanks for that tip.. just did it and gonna see what it looks like. my only issue with linux operating systems.. is the fact that I grew up on windows. And it is sooo hard to learn how to install things on here | 22:51 |
| Hilikus | Jun 6 17:48:30 mazinger sensord: Sensor alarm: Chip asb100-i2c-0-2d: +3.3V: +2.98 V (min = +2.96 V, max = +3.63 V) [ALARM] | 22:51 |
| fccf | jdahm: I installed one the other dayand I using the windows utility - you might try that ... another thought - try a different usb drive | 22:51 |
| August23rd | its not as hard as you would think | 22:51 |
| jdahm | fccf: but I fsck'ed this one many times and it's fine. Reformatted it a few times too | 22:51 |
| Hilikus | two questions, is that value really bad?? it doesn't look that low to me. and second, why is it even an alarm if it is within the min and max range | 22:51 |
| kukui | #trivia | 22:51 |
| brentv911 | August23rd: lol just different from what i'm used to.. learning curve.. lol | 22:52 |
| brentv911 | i do like how fast ubuntu boots up compaired to my windows XP on this machine | 22:52 |
| August23rd | brentv911: your best friend in ubuntu (debian based distro) is the command sudo (since root is disabled by default | 22:52 |
| faik | Help, my windows xp dont boots on first partition. | 22:53 |
| jdahm | brentv911: you ought to like MANY more things about linux compared to windblows | 22:53 |
| colblood | faik: try #windows | 22:53 |
| faik | where? | 22:53 |
| colblood | same irc network, just join it | 22:53 |
| Slart | Hilikus: It might just be alerting you to the fact that it *has* been outside those limits some time in the past.. but that's just an idea | 22:53 |
| bastiaan | hi all | 22:53 |
| isaac_ | I need an app that encodes audio as ogg mono. SoundConverter won't do mono, SoundKonverter won't even encode ogg (keeps giving me empty files with 0 bytes), and the Winprograms I tried to install in Wine won't work for some odd reason. | 22:54 |
| August23rd | faik: do a google search on grub | 22:54 |
| fccf | faik /join #windows | 22:54 |
| isaac_ | Anyone have a pointer? | 22:54 |
| brentv911 | jdahm: I'm starting to. but only been using it for a few days.. took some time to figure out how to get my wireless card to work with it.. | 22:54 |
| Hilikus | Slart it has been, you might be right | 22:54 |
| Slart | Hilikus: just as you say.. it's weird if it puts up an alarm when it's still inside the limits | 22:54 |
| Flannel | August23rd: Please refrain from that sort of support. | 22:54 |
| svenpeeters | hello | 22:54 |
| brentv911 | the only thing that i am missing is a DVD player for this. | 22:54 |

| jdahm | fccf: this might work even with the one corrupt file. It hasn't stopped installation yet and it's almost to the bootloader | 22:55 |
| Slart | Hilikus: I have no idea really.. perhaps as in ##hardware .. or check the chip specs from the manufacturer | 22:55 |
| August23rd | brentv911 totem since you're on a dell you might be able to get "dellbuntu" which gives you lindvd a closed source dvd player, but totem should work | 22:55 |

| Hilikus | cause i've been having some sudden lockups where everything just dies, so i'm trying to find out whats wrong | 22:56 |
| brentv911 | August23rd: cool thanks for that info.. I was going to try my cyberlink for windows through wine to see if that worked.. but i will look for those two | 22:56 |
| Hilikus | is it possible that softawre would cause a hard lockup? | 22:57 |
| Hilikus | the whole system stops responding | 22:57 |
| Slart | Winball: I guess that would depend on the enviroment, there are several variants of cat5 too | 22:57 |
| faik | any help for windows xp dont starts on first partition after install ubuntu 9.04 on second partition... | 22:57 |

| Hilikus | my intuition tells me its the psu cause it's kinda old and i might have too many thing in my box | 22:58 |
| isaac_ | fccf (whines) nothing GUI? SoundConverter won't let me add a mono tag to the commandline, and I want to run a whole folder with subfolders, with some of those having subfolders........ 3,561 songs total......... in one batch. | 22:58 |

| fccf | isaac_: type man oggenc into terminal ... it tells you EXACTLY how to do it | 22:59 |

| isaac_ | fccf so I would have to run them from my flac files to wave first, then to ogg? | 23:01 |
| Winball | Anyone tried 9.04 on a ps3 ? Is it still running slow ? | 23:01 |
| fccf | isaac_: you will need to learn some command line for this... to create a batch process to do your double conversion | 23:01 |
| August23rd | brentv911: ok cool let me know what you think | 23:01 |
| kazagistar | hmm... can permissions be set for the root directory of a partition? or does it use the permissions of the folder it was mounted to? | 23:02 |
| brentv911 | I will.. have a good one | 23:02 |
| isaac_ | fccf translation: There is no good GUI at this time for Ubuntu that will handle it? | 23:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kazagistar THis is a start.. sudo mkdir /data/$USER && sudo chown $USER:$USER /data/$USER && sudo chmod u+rwx /data/$USER | 23:04 |

| isaac_ | fccf Yeah I know about Audacity chains. I can't find a stereo to mono command in the chain list though. And ogg sounds much better at a much lower bitrate than mp3, and if I want to fit my whole collection on my digital player I have to have it 80kbps or lower. :/ | 23:06 |

| isaac_ | fccf Thank you for your help......... I'm really not trying to be obstreperous. | 23:07 |
| fccf | isaac_: write your own chain | 23:07 |
| isaac_ | fccf I have made chains in Audacity. I can't find a stereo to mono command to use in the chain. | 23:07 |
| _2eXtreme | guys does anyone have a guide on how to install a broadcom 4306 with ndiswrapper OFFLINE? | 23:07 |
| isaac_ | So about this command line......... where do you begin? | 23:07 |
| JoshJ | !libxbase | 23:07 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about libxbase | 23:07 |
| jdahm | fccf: working! | 23:08 |
| JoshJ | Anyone happen to know where I can find the actual documentation for libxbase? There's no libxbase-doc package, is it included in the library itself; and where do I find it? | 23:08 |
| isaac_ | I assume first command is to change it from flac to wave. Change to mono at that point? | 23:08 |
| fccf | jdahm woo hoo | 23:08 |
| kazagistar | Jack_Sparrow: alright, I thought that might be it, but I was checking if there was some other superior method... this is my first time NOT using NTFS or FAT32 for this sort of thing | 23:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 23:09 |
| fccf | isaac_: chains are just linux commands strung together ... if you man mpg123 or mpg321 you should find what you need | 23:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kazagistar You could also do some editing in /etc/fstab | 23:09 |
| isaac_ | fccf oh, THAT chain. I thought you were still talking Audacity chains. | 23:10 |
| fccf | isaac_: I am - you can run any custom chain in audacity -provided you have the plugins to support the chain | 23:11 |
| isaac_ | fccf okay, now I'm intrigued. Where do you edit command chains in Audacity, besides the standard GUI menu for setting chains up? | 23:12 |
| Linuz2009 | What kind of browser is shiretoko? | 23:12 |
| fccf | isaac_: /home/user/.audacity-data/chains/ | 23:13 |
| Linuz2009 | The browser doesn't look like mozilla firefox 3.5 | 23:13 |
| Linuz2009 | the icon is different | 23:14 |
| isaac_ | fccf oh.......... the back door. Well, worth a shot. Thanks. | 23:14 |
| Linuz2009 | And I checked online and it said that mozilla user shouldn't use shiretoko | 23:14 |

| RancidLM | hi all, im looking to install ubuntu on a netbook.. im just wondering if i can use the desktop edition or do i need the netbook remix? (and if the netbook remix can i still use gnome?) | 23:18 |
| dominiqu1 | there are many hidden Folders named like ".fr-" and some random string in my home dir. What are they for? | 23:19 |
| dominiqu1 | RancidLM: If your netbook is a valid "pc", then everything should work :) (while the netbook edition is recommended) | 23:19 |
| RancidLM | dominiqu1: the .hidden folders are used by apps to save data about settings for various applications | 23:19 |
| August23rd | RancidLM: it should be gnome on the netbook remix | 23:20 |
| dominiqu1 | RancidLM: Thanks, i know this. | 23:20 |
| === DaveIngram__ is now known as DaveIngram | ||
| dominiqu1 | RancidLM: Just don't know which application does create those folders. | 23:20 |
| RancidLM | So looking at the Ubuntu Remix i see a new UI can this be disabled and standard gnome be used? | 23:20 |
| RancidLM | dominiqu1: can u compair time stamps to recently used apps? | 23:21 |

| dominiqu1 | Linuz2009: According to some news service shiretoko is an alpha version of firefox 3.1 | 23:22 |
| dupondje | Linuz2009: its the alfa name for the new Firefox 2.5 | 23:23 |
| dominiqu1 | Linuz2009: and and its not 3.6 | 23:23 |
| dupondje | 3.5* | 23:23 |
| dominiqu1 | ahm 3.5 | 23:23 |
| bkraptor | shiretoko is firefox 3.5 without the branding (and icon) | 23:23 |

| FloodBot1 | !netsplit | 23:25 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 23:25 |

| Siesta | Hi, can I have some help? | 23:25 |
| _2eXtreme | Jack_Sparrow: I dont know how to get it working. It says wrong input file or something along those lines... | 23:25 |
| Siesta | I am downloading ubuntu | 23:25 |
| isaac_ | Netsplit........... | 23:25 |
| Linuz2009 | why I when I went to synmatic package manager and it listed firefox 3.5 branding/support...etc | 23:25 |

| isaac_ | Good grief......... | 23:26 |
| Siesta | can i download it and burn the iso to a dvvd? | 23:26 |
| Flannel | Siesta: You can, yes. | 23:26 |
| _2eXtreme | Jack_Sparrow: theres no doc for jaunty :( | 23:26 |

| Jack_Sparrow | _2eXtreme That should still work | 23:27 |
| isaac_ | Amplify: Ratio=0.562341 | 23:27 |
| isaac_ | ExportOgg: | 23:27 |
| Siesta | ok, and I will have the choice just to run live cd, becuase I don't want to reformat | 23:27 |
| _2eXtreme | Jack_Sparrow: but older distros of ubuntu supported my wireless better, i didnt need to use bcm cutter | 23:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !info b43-legacy | 23:28 |
| ubottu | Package b43-legacy does not exist in jaunty | 23:28 |
| Siesta | so will this install anything on my main hard drive if i run the live dvd | 23:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !find b43 | 23:28 |
| ubottu | Found: b43-fwcutter | 23:28 |
| Linuz2009 | is there anyway to check my firefox current version? Is there also a command? | 23:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !info b43-fwcutter | 23:28 |
| ubottu | b43-fwcutter (source: b43-fwcutter): Utility for extracting Broadcom 43xx firmware. In component main, is optional. Version 1:011-5 (jaunty), package size 16 kB, installed size 108 kB | 23:28 |
| racecar56 | i want to make the default browser firefox-3.0 but it keeps using galeon instead, what's going on | 23:29 |
| sparr | Is there a way to make my wireless network work when I am not logged into the computer? | 23:29 |
| guntbert | Siesta: no, not until you tell it to install | 23:29 |
| August23rd | linuz2009: you could try help in firefox tells you the version there | 23:29 |
| fccf | isaac_: please use a pastebin | 23:29 |
| Flannel | racecar56: What version of Ubuntu are you on? | 23:29 |
| _2eXtreme | Jack_Sparrow: are there any tutorials or orum posts that may be of help? | 23:29 |
| racecar56 | Flannel, 9.04 | 23:29 |
| August23rd | Linuz2009: help-about | 23:29 |
| Siesta | ah ok, should i just pull up the boot menu when i start windows and choose to boot from the DVD? | 23:29 |
| racecar56 | Flannel, i always like the latest | 23:29 |
| ruler_ | can i put security code for a folder | 23:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | _2eXtreme Looking for my notes now | 23:30 |
| Siesta | also does ubuntu come with the dock? or is that an addition? | 23:30 |
| Siesta | can you install other programs when using the live cd? | 23:30 |
| _2eXtreme | Jack_Sparrow: thanks | 23:30 |
| isaac_ | fccf I am familiar with pastebin, but that was all there was to the file. I thought it would annoy you to have to open a pastebin webpage just for two lines. | 23:30 |
| briareus | hi all, anyone have experience installing ubuntu into virtualbox? | 23:30 |
| racecar56 | Siesta, yes | 23:30 |
| MenZa | Siesta→ theoretically yes, but it install it in your RAM | 23:30 |
| racecar56 | briancron, a lt | 23:30 |
| racecar56 | briancron, a lot | 23:30 |
| fccf | isaac_: lemme look around for a min | 23:31 |
| Siesta | errr.... will it remove from the ram when I reboot? | 23:31 |
| ruler_ | can i put code for folders | 23:31 |
| racecar56 | briancron, i have installed quite a bit of stuff in vbox | 23:31 |
| racecar56 | Siesta, yes | 23:31 |
| racecar56 | Siesta, the ram is always cleared on reboot unless it's a certian type | 23:31 |
| briareus | racecar56: ok (assuming you meant me) I notice that I installed it but it won't boot up correctly, and when it does, its sitting there with an INSTALL icon on its desktop, as if it installed as a livecd or something | 23:31 |
| guntbert | Siesta: as MenZa said, nothing will be permanent after a reboot | 23:31 |
| August23rd | siesta: you might want to try http://wubi-installer.org/ | 23:31 |
| Siesta | alright good, can i download linux apps from my windows install and then run them on my lunix distributioin? | 23:32 |
| ruler_ | when i download anything if it disconnect diwnloading is canceled can i use a software to prevent it | 23:32 |
| racecar56 | briancron, hmmmm that is offally weird, version? | 23:32 |
| racecar56 | briancron, 9.04? | 23:32 |
| WhoIS | Hey, how do u block hackers from Apache2 webserver, the easy way | 23:32 |
| briareus | 9.04 just burned today | 23:32 |
| svenpeeters | damn, i can't setup a file server… can somebody help me? | 23:32 |
| Nematocyst | I have a notebook running Ubuntu which I'd like to access remotely. it runs some internet programs 24/7 and i just want to periodically take over its desktop from another ubuntu machine. the the only thing is it has to be at desktop already before i can access it because otherwise NetworkManager isn't active and no ip address. what's the solution? | 23:32 |
| racecar56 | briancron, does your cd writer suck like mine | 23:32 |
| Siesta | thanks for wubi, I will use it to fool around with ubuntu, but I am making the live cd so that if my Windows happens to crash, I can still transfer files | 23:33 |
| WhoIS | Nematocyst, ubuntu sucks when it comes to remote monitor/control | 23:33 |
| Linuz2009 | thanks my shiretoko is 3.5b4pre | 23:33 |
| briareus | racecar56: no, and the laptop will boot up to ubuntu livecd just fine, it seems only a problem in vbox, first problem I've had with vbox ever. | 23:33 |
| racecar56 | briareus, lol name mixup..... | 23:33 |
| racecar56 | briareus, that is odd | 23:33 |
| briareus | its ok, I knew you meant me | 23:33 |
| racecar56 | briareus, vbox version? | 23:34 |
| briareus | racecar56: I'm reinstalling it right now | 23:34 |
| briareus | 2.2.2 | 23:34 |
| racecar56 | briareus, kkz | 23:34 |
| racecar56 | briareus, i dont do vbox anymore... but ive used it scince 1.6.4 | 23:34 |
| briareus | racecar56: going to be here a bit? I might ask you the occasional support Q | 23:34 |
| racecar56 | briareus, yeah... i was here to ask a question myself | 23:34 |
| August23rd | svenpeeters: you might find http://webmin.com/ useful but you will need to enable your root account | 23:34 |
| isaac_ | fccf scratch that, I found stereo to mono. Now I just need to figure out how to make Audacity stick with a certain quality level when exporting to ogg. | 23:35 |

| Jack_Sparrow | _2eXtreme It would be what I would try | 23:37 |

| Bogus8 | I had a raid5 go down yesterday... apparently TWO drives died... didn't have any alert system setup... I was wondering how I could find when the drives went out? (I know when the raid went down but I'd find it odd if they both went out (different issues on each drive) | 23:37 |
| svenpeeters | i really need a file server and media center | 23:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | _2eXtreme I have not put any of my bcm4308's on a jaunty box yet | 23:37 |

| Bogus8 | racecar56: Yeah... I got lucky.. one drive the board went bad so I was able to swap boards and get the raid back up and backup my data | 23:38 |
| _2eXtreme | Jack_Sparrow: do i still need to install ndiswrapper? | 23:38 |
| khismetix | Hi - I've installed ubuntu under virtualbox on a sony vaio | 23:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | _2eXtreme I dont think so. but it has been a long time and I am way tired atm | 23:39 |
| Bogus8 | but I'm curious about both drives death because I don't know which drive went first... so am I running my raid off a drive that was out of the "loop" a long time ago? It's working... so far | 23:39 |
| khismetix | Probably an FAQ but... how do I choose a higher screen res ? | 23:39 |
| _2eXtreme | Jack_Sparrow: okay, well i can always give it a go and report back. thanks very much! | 23:39 |
| khismetix | it's only offering me 800x600 and 1024x768 | 23:39 |

| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 23:44 |

| racecar56 | user45454, how much ram | 23:45 |
| mwolff | alexandra: a very common problem is that you have to counterintuitively set a specific channel to "mute", and then you have sound. happened to me at least thrice. | 23:45 |

| === kunwon11 is now known as kunwon1 | ||
| mwolff | I really don't want to reinstall either WinXP nor Ubuntu, though. I am pretty certain that both installs are still okay since all I touched is hardware, and not even the discs. So there must be some other kind of f...up, but grub doesn't spit any error, it just hangs after "Starting up...". So what are my options? | 23:47 |
| racecar56 | mwolff, it's an acer aspire m5630, btw i have had that error in 2 situations | 23:47 |

| mwolff | racecar56: the radeon 4850 wouldn't work out-of-the box when I installed it, neither with the opensoure drivers, nor with the fglrx driver from the official repository. Had to manually download the latest Catalyst driver from the AMD website, now everything works flawlessly, graphics-wise. | 23:48 |
