| Armenian | erUSUL: hmm, I don't think that is the problem when i add a few other command line options i get a different error message, I think I can solve it, but I'm getting unknown encoder: 'xvid', wonder why? | 00:15 |
| sobersabre | I don't knwo what I did, but my menus are empty. | 00:15 |
| Tanner2008 | skrite : http://pastebin.com/m2d8de267 | 00:15 |

| sobersabre | System only has "Quit..." | 00:16 |
| sobersabre | Any other elements of the panel are messed up, | 00:16 |
| sobersabre | if I am running update-menus, it doesn't help. | 00:16 |
| Armenian | erUSUL: it's ok, it seems that xvid isn't one of the supported codecs shown when u do ffmpeg -formats, but I kind of need it to play it in my standalone divx player, anyway thanks for trying | 00:16 |
| sobersabre | if I am running the menu-editor, it doesn't help too. | 00:17 |

| smacktalk | several .c files in a .tar.gz package | 00:19 |
| sobersabre | smacktalk: you'll probably need to compile that file, but a README or INSTALL file should be with it, or on the page you've downloaded it from. | 00:20 |
| erUSUL | smacktalk: zebra has bee deprecated in favour of quagga | 00:20 |
| erUSUL | !info quagga > smacktalk | 00:20 |

| chiggins | VCoolio - Time question, ha... My Conky time now says 18:20... how can i get it to say like 6:20:35 | 00:20 |
| sobersabre | inside that file there should be the instruction on how to "build" the program, i.e. convert it from .c into the form of a running program. | 00:20 |

| erUSUL | Chaorain: well in linux you could use fdisk to find out the offsets... | 00:21 |
| Socket | Flannel: oh, ok | 00:21 |
| sobersabre | ZuLuuuuuu: depends on what you plan to do with the computer. | 00:21 |
| Flannel | Socket: The method you'll use to enable it is: sudo a2enmod rewrite (and then restart) | 00:21 |
| ZuLuuuuuu | sobersabre: I plan to do almost everything :) office, movie, programming etc | 00:22 |
| Socket | Flannel: Yeah, I've done that, however, it's still not listed in an apache2ctl -l | 00:22 |
| smacktalk | ya, usually there's a README file with instructions...but not this time... | 00:22 |
| Flannel | Socket: Does rewrite work? | 00:22 |
| Socket | Flannel: and I can see the symlink in mods-enabled | 00:22 |

| Socket | Flannel: Yes, many times.. | 00:22 |
| ZuLuuuuuu | sobersabre: oh I understand, then I'll go with the usual one | 00:22 |
| Socket | Flannel: and stop and start, restart, reload | 00:22 |

| texasjack | VCoolio, bookmarked. =) | 00:34 |
| Flannel | cry_baby: Right. And when you removed this user, this was the same reboot as installing upgrades, right? | 00:34 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, I'm particularly scared of its last line: "Segmentation fault" | 00:34 |
| cry_baby | Flannel: I just remermbered. before I shut down ubuntu last night.. i went into ADMIN and chose to auto login | 00:34 |
| cry_baby | Flannel: same reboot as installing upgrades, right? | 00:34 |
| cry_baby | Flannel: i dfont understand | 00:34 |
| Flannel | cry_baby: Did you install upgrades last night as well? | 00:34 |
| cry_baby | Flannel: no | 00:34 |
| Flannel | Like, update-manager installing new versions of packages | 00:34 |
| cry_baby | Flannel: my ubuntu was already uptodate | 00:34 |
| cry_baby | Flannel: no.. i only removed a user and then changed auto login from old user to main user | 00:35 |
| Flannel | cry_baby: That means that it must be the auto login, although that seems odd. | 00:35 |
| cry_baby | Flannel: IT must have confused Ubuntu | 00:35 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, I think it's because it can't load the GLX extension. Are you sure this driver have the GLX extension? | 00:35 |
| cry_baby | Flannel: when I press ctrl-alt-f1 , it gives me a prompt.. what can I now do? | 00:35 |
| SegFaultAX | cry_baby: login | 00:35 |
| Flannel | cry_baby: You can log in to that prompt, and fix the autologin stuff. But, I don't know much about where to go to change that. | 00:36 |
| erUSUL | cry_baby: log in and restart gdm ? | 00:36 |
| cry_baby | SegFaultAX: I did, and still at prompt | 00:36 |
| SegFaultAX | cry_baby: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 00:36 |
| cry_baby | erUSUL: how I restart gdm? | 00:36 |
| VCoolio | texasjack: too bad it doesn't mention adding third party repos, should be mentioned before letting users compile things on their own | 00:36 |
| cry_baby | SegFaultAX: ok brb | 00:36 |
| erUSUL | cry_baby: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 00:36 |
| oenone | do i need to install all available applications ? | 00:36 |

| cry_baby | erUSUL: which one I type? sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart ? | 00:37 |
| tritium | systat: please stay on topic | 00:37 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, no, I'm not sure... I confirmed that the board has GL cappabilities... I have the drivers from the repositories... how can I know if they support GLX? | 00:37 |
| erUSUL | cry_baby: the later | 00:37 |
| texasjack | VCoolio, yep. Noted that too... Everyone tries FIRST a 3-step install mode (configure, make, make-install). ;) | 00:37 |
| cry_baby | erUSUL: ok brb | 00:38 |
| tanner2007 | Flannel i need ur help if u din mind | 00:38 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, beyond that... how can I reconfigure xorg.conf to be sure that it has the best options? | 00:38 |
| systat | http://youtube.com/systat COMMENT AND RATE MY VIDEOS HA AH AH AAH | 00:38 |
| leogazio | hi, is that secure opening ssh port? | 00:38 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, now you gotcha me... But I'm sure that this board does OpenGL stuff, but the driver... Not so sure... | 00:38 |
| leogazio | leaving it public opened | 00:39 |
| billyd | Is there a separate chat for the Netbook ReMix or is it all here? | 00:39 |
| Flannel | tanner2007: Yep, what's up? | 00:39 |

| cry_baby | erUSUL: you are a legend :) | 00:39 |
| boss_mc | billyd: for hardware you could check out #eeepc | 00:39 |
| erUSUL | cry_baby: ok; change the login stuff back ;) | 00:39 |
| cry_baby | erUSUL: what do I do now to fix this? I am in gnome now | 00:39 |
| cabrey | billyd, it's fine here | 00:40 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, so I'll remove the 'driver "intel"' line, as I just added it following indications from the web | 00:40 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, but if you insist: «sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg».... I do NOT recommend if everything is working. Remember: "Don't fix what is not broken." | 00:40 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, but I don't know what else to try... | 00:40 |
| Tanner2008 | Flannel look: http://pastebin.com/m713e3031 | 00:40 |
| erUSUL | cry_baby: well undo what you just did is in System>admin>Login Screen or someting like that | 00:40 |
| erUSUL | !cookie | 00:40 |
| ubottu | Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 00:40 |
| cry_baby | erUSUL: you mean untick "Enable automatic login" ? | 00:40 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, try Google: "your card name" + xorg.conf + Ubuntu | 00:41 |
| erUSUL | cry_baby: yep... just see if that was what messed up things | 00:41 |
| cry_baby | erUSUL: cause thats all I did last night,, select "Enable automatic login" | 00:41 |
| cry_baby | erUSUL: ok done.. now reboot? | 00:41 |
| erUSUL | cry_baby: yep try | 00:41 |
| cry_baby | erUSUL: ok brb | 00:41 |

| erUSUL | cry_baby: well better a bit of typing that no working ubuntu ;) | 00:44 |
| cry_baby | erUSUL: out of curiosity, what did sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart do and what was wrong in first place? | 00:44 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, I did... most stuff I found is fixed with the simple and standard recomendations (like installing some packages), and I have all "already done" here... it just doesn't work... | 00:44 |

| erUSUL | cry_baby: just restarts the xserver (the graphic system) | 00:44 |
| SegFaultAX | cry_baby: if it happens again, nano /etc/gdm/gdm.conf at the command line and simply change AutomaticLoginEnabled to false | 00:45 |
| erUSUL | cry_baby: maybe it get confused about resolutions or something... dunno really | 00:45 |

| oenone | wow that was fast | 00:48 |
| oenone | thanks sir | 00:48 |
| texasjack | SegFaultAX, it will not install swfdec-gnome together? | 00:49 |
| Flannel | Tanner2008: Try adding --recheck to the end of that line | 00:49 |
| Socket | Flannel: Man, no matter when I do with my mod_rewrite rules I cannot get this of this 400 Bad Request error from Apache | 00:49 |
| VCoolio | oenone: no man, that's gnome | 00:49 |

| chiggins | VCoolio - The main theme is raptor (http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Raptor+%28Slickness+remix%29?content=86048) but i dont use metacity.... i have openbox and i have a theme called Brave Dark | 00:50 |
| VCoolio | chiggins: ok no use for me then | 00:50 |
| Flannel | Socket: You might try #apache, they'll be much more adept than I am at diagnosing odd config issues | 00:50 |
| texasjack | SegFaultAX, sorry. I heard that BOTH flash and swfdec-gnome packages CAN'T be installed together. | 00:50 |
| texasjack | SegFaultAX, is that true? | 00:50 |
| oenone | im so happy that i can now watch movies in my ubuntu htpc | 00:51 |

| Socket | Flannel: Yeah, I'm trying there as well, thanks Flannel | 00:51 |
| oenone | it was so great that i happen to stumble on ubuntu | 00:51 |
| Flannel | Tanner2008: Did it mention that the stuff has been output to device.map? | 00:51 |
| cybertune | Join #ubuntu-gr | 00:51 |
| texasjack | SegFaultAX, 'cause swfdec-gnome will take place whatever flash stuff occurs... And it really becomes a mess. | 00:51 |
| oenone | i thought only windows are the os available | 00:52 |
| Tanner2008 | flannel not sure what ur talking about but nothign has anything said to that file | 00:52 |
| oenone | never knew there were other os's | 00:52 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, hummm.... Try this lines in xorg.conf: | 00:52 |
| SegFaultAX | texasjack: Sounds like a configuration problem which is often enough to make them essentially mutually exclusive unless you know what you are doing. | 00:52 |
| Flannel | Tanner2008: when you ran --recheck? | 00:52 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, line1: Section "ServerFlags" | 00:52 |

| texasjack | facundobatista, then log out, come back, opens a terminal and glxgears | 00:53 |
| texasjack | SegFaultAX, the fact is that they are not mutually exclusive... | 00:54 |
| SegFaultAX | oenone: It "Quickly perform actions on your desktop". Next time apt-cache search | 00:54 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, ok, trying...! | 00:54 |

| SegFaultAX | texasjack: I see. That's a rather glaring issue with both packages. | 00:55 |

| texasjack | SegFaultAX, yep... Flash is totally incompatible with swfdec-gnome... | 00:56 |
| VCoolio | chiggins: not a thing, try adressing the room in general, sorry | 00:57 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, hummmm... Man, I have no more ideas... Sorry, brother tux. | 00:57 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, thanks for your help, anyway... | 00:57 |
| chiggins | VCoolio - Its chill - thanks a bunch though ! | 00:57 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, try Google with the name of your card + xorg.conf + Ubuntu | 00:57 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, always welcome. | 00:57 |
| SegFaultAX | What's the issue? | 00:57 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, one last question... could this type of error be because a semi-broken card? | 00:57 |
| chiggins | hey room, anyone know how to enable a Radeon HD 4850 videocard? | 00:57 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, what do your experience telll, I mean? Not asking for an absolute answer here... | 00:58 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, no. It's about the driver. I *really* guess. If the card was broken... | 00:58 |
| oenone | ok ive finished installing gnome do | 00:58 |
| oenone | where do i go to sue it | 00:58 |
| oenone | use it | 00:58 |
| texasjack | SegFaultAX, facundobatista can't get GLX extension to load. | 00:59 |
| VCoolio | oenone: in the menus, check applications out; or alt+f2 and type gnome-do | 00:59 |
| texasjack | facundobatista, I think that's not broken. Its just a driver issue. | 00:59 |
| facundobatista | texasjack, ok! thanks again | 00:59 |
| burntresistor | does anyone run ubiquity im pressing alt + space and its not opening the the file menu on the browser does | 01:00 |
| VCoolio | oenone: after that you can call it anytime with super(your windows key)+space | 01:00 |
| SegFaultAX | chiggins: Perhaps a jumping off point: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Hardy_Installation_Guide | 01:00 |

| Rob235 | if im running ubuntu 9.04 which uses compiz then what themes do i download for, gnome or just compiz | 01:13 |
| oenone | what otehr stuff can you suggest in ubuntu | 01:13 |
| oenone | ? | 01:13 |
| dabukalam | @sebsebseb i hope some proper software will include it in the futtre... *vlc* | 01:14 |
| MikeMan | Rob235: gnome-look.org | 01:14 |
| sebsebseb | dabukalam: you don't understand how this works obviously | 01:14 |
| Rob235 | MikeMan: i know but do i download compiz themes or what | 01:14 |
| sebsebseb | dabukalam: most Linux distros, because of legal reasons, but also freedom reasons, do not support propritary formats by default | 01:14 |
| cousteau | Rob235: just normal compiz themes | 01:14 |
| sebsebseb | !freedom | dabukalam | 01:14 |
| ubottu | dabukalam: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing | 01:14 |
| MikeMan | Rob235: nope, compiz is just pretty effects | 01:14 |
| cousteau | I mean, gnome themes | 01:14 |
| pokethesmot | !ping | 01:15 |
| ubottu | ping yourself ;-) really the diodes all down my left side are sore | 01:15 |

| pokethesmot | sudo | 01:15 |
| storrgie | texasjack: also thats already in my startup | 01:15 |
| dabukalam | @sebsebseb yes but the only way to play blu-ray right now is to actually dump the whole thing on your drive and decode it which means you need to have about 50G of space, a liberty not all of us have | 01:15 |
| Rob235 | so i click gtk 2.x? | 01:16 |
| === texasjack is now known as texasjack[away] | ||

| VCoolio | Rob235: in appearance window, press customize; the part for 'controls' is defined by gtk2-themes, the part 'window borders' = metacity or emerald | 01:16 |

| VCoolio | Rob235: some themes have both gtk2 and metacity, then they also are found in gtk2-section on gnome-look; if only one of them then they don't show up in main appearance window but only in customize tabs | 01:17 |
| VCoolio | Rob235: indeed | 01:17 |
| lstarnes | Rob235: metacity controls windows and doesn't run when compiz does | 01:17 |
| Rob235 | ok | 01:18 |
| VCoolio | Rob235: gdm-themes are for login screen | 01:18 |
| Rob235 | yup thats the one i knew heh | 01:18 |

| === Mr is now known as Guest42585 | ||
| nick125 | KillGorack: Depends on what you're theming. GDM is the login manager. | 01:20 |

| zeno | hi i rebooted and sound stopped working | 01:24 |
| KillGorack | I've been there.. no screenshots.. ;-/ hard to browse.. ;0( | 01:24 |
| VCoolio | KillGorack: in appearance window, press customize; the part for 'controls' is defined by gtk2-themes, the part 'window borders' = metacity or emerald | 01:24 |
| oenone | can i install all the themes found in synaptic? | 01:24 |
| sirMajid | lstarnes: do u know what the problem is? | 01:24 |
| KillGorack | been there too | 01:24 |
| KillGorack | so, I gather it's GDK 2 offa gnome-look.org? | 01:25 |
| VCoolio | KillGorack: gtk2 yes | 01:25 |
| KillGorack | heh | 01:25 |

| lstarnes | sirMajid: did you include a blank line after the get request | 01:32 |
| sirMajid | Istarnes: but the problem is that it just waits and returns nothing | 01:32 |
| lstarnes | sirMajid: what is the full first line? | 01:32 |
| sirMajid | Istarnes: well, I press "enter" after my request | 01:32 |

| MTecknology | How am I supposed to tix this? http://pastebin.com/m5b590c21 | 03:54 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: that is the docu from ralink for linux so it should work out | 03:54 |
| boss_mc | burvowski: gow big is the drive? | 03:54 |
| krdyt | tsrk, which way did they move, does it do it every time? | 03:54 |
| SuperSenior | matrixblue, yes i am on my windows laptop right next to it using the wifi | 03:54 |
| burvowski | boss_mc 320 gigs total | 03:54 |
| burvowski | boss_mc 278.3 free | 03:55 |
| inx-live | chiggins: http://www.realtek.com.tw/default.aspx | 03:55 |
| Rampou | kevin__, that's still as before :/ | 03:55 |
| krdyt | check and make sure the bars is set to span all the way accross 100% of the screen | 03:55 |
| inx-live | chiggins: you should get the windows XP driver from there | 03:55 |
| matrixblue | SuperSenior, pastebin the output of lspci -a please | 03:55 |
| kevin__ | Rampou: you have to rightlick on your background and go the visual effects and make sure its on normal | 03:55 |
| Rampou | kevin__, yeah, i've no graphics effect at all | 03:56 |
| kevin__ | Rampou: basically just exit it then run it again and it will go to docky | 03:56 |
| oenone | how do i start docky? | 03:56 |
| kevin__ | oenone: applications > accesories > gnome-do | 03:56 |
| Rampou | kevin__, ok | 03:56 |
| varun | OOO got it and thanks for that lstarnes thanks a lot .So it means that even if I am in the same directory where everything is and I type | 03:56 |
| oenone | ok | 03:56 |
| oenone | there are 2 squares just appeared | 03:57 |
| oenone | i thougth there was a tab and i can put things into it | 03:57 |
| boss_mc | burvowski: that sounds big but lost+found is a folder used by fsck and friends to put unknown file fragments after recovery | 03:57 |
| varun | just unecm.bin file.ecm file then it wont execute ?? I always have to use ./------ no matter anywhere I am to run a program | 03:57 |
| varun | ?? | 03:57 |
| kevin__ | oenone: okay set gnome-do to docky instead of wat is on | 03:57 |
| oenone | how do i do that | 03:58 |
| kevin__ | click on the little arrow or rightclick or something | 03:58 |
| oenone | ok | 03:58 |
| oenone | i did but there are four tabs | 03:58 |
| oenone | general , keyboard , plugins , appearance tabs | 03:59 |
| boss_mc | burvowski: it is in all ext3/4 drives | 03:59 |
| chiggins | inx-live - on that site you gave me ... there are linux drivers o.O | 03:59 |
| SuperSenior | matrixblue, ill need a few minutes to hook it up directly to the router to access pastebin | 03:59 |
| kevin__ | oenone: its a dropdown menu, | 03:59 |
| matrixblue | SuperSenior, ok | 03:59 |
| kevin__ | oenone: in apperance tab | 03:59 |
| oenone | your display is not properly configure for theme and animation support. to use these features, you must enable compositing | 04:00 |
| kevin__ | oenone: did you rightclick on your desktop and go 2 visual effects and set to normal instead of none?? | 04:01 |
| oenone | nope i didnt | 04:01 |
| oenone | should i ? | 04:01 |
| kevin__ | oenone: yeah you should | 04:02 |
| burvowski | boss_mc but i cant move any files to the drive, thats the issue | 04:02 |
| ozzloy | i connected a bluetooth headset to my computer. now the volume buttons don't actually change the volume anymore. how do i fix that? | 04:02 |
| owen1 | how can i find all the packages ubuntu 9.04 comes with? | 04:02 |
| rww | oenone: you need a composing manager enabled to use docky. Compiz can be set up with those instructions; if that doesn't work, there's also metacity's compositing manager. | 04:02 |
| inx-live | chiggins: yes, native linux driver if you don | 04:02 |
| SuperSenior | matrixblue, lspci -a correct? does that litterally list the pci cards installed? | 04:02 |
| inx-live | chiggins: don't want to use ndiswrapper | 04:02 |
| boss_mc | burvowski: is it mounted correctly? (check mount in the terminal) | 04:02 |
| oenone | ok its working now | 04:03 |
| oenone | thanks | 04:03 |
| matrixblue | SuperSenior, yeah | 04:03 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: yes ndis is for last resort | 04:03 |
| oenone | thanks kevin | 04:03 |
| kevin__ | oenone: np man | 04:03 |
| oenone | i hope this wont affect my video playback | 04:03 |
| inx-live | chiggins: google search for RTL8111 windows XP driver, you can even download to vista and find the *.inf file if you want to use the ndiswrapper route | 04:03 |
| rww | oenone: it might. depends on your graphics card. | 04:04 |
| boss_mc | owen1: look at the dependencies of ubuntu-desktop | 04:04 |
| burvowski | boss_mc i typed mount in terminal and got a bunch back, is there something in particular im looking for | 04:04 |
| salmon | so i turned my computer on today, and sound wasn't working in flash. running jaunty. anyone know why this happened, or better yet how to fix it? | 04:04 |
| kevin__ | inx-live: chiggins is going to try this route i think http://www.physics.nmt.edu/~rsonnenf/linuxcontrib/ralink-2561-rt61/ | 04:04 |
| krdyt | where is the ubuntu support #? | 04:04 |
| Rampou | kevin__, just to say that it's work perfectlly and i still get my bookmark, history and plugin !!! :D thank you very much, just restart so easy lol | 04:04 |
| Rampou | =) | 04:04 |
| oenone | @rrw: i have a ati 4870 videocard | 04:04 |
| owen1 | boss_mc: ok | 04:04 |
| rww | krdyt: there isn't one, unless you have a support contract with Canonical. | 04:04 |
| kevin__ | Rampou: nice man, if your going to uninstall anything i would do a purge. | 04:04 |
| oenone | will that be a problem? | 04:04 |
| boss_mc | burvowski: look at the line referring to your partition and see what options are given (look out especially for ro [read only]) | 04:04 |
| inx-live | chiggins: also make sure you have installed ndisgtk as well as ndiswrapper | 04:05 |
| rww | oenone: I don't know. try it and see; you can always disable it if it is =/ | 04:05 |
| screamsayonara | hi... i installed ubuntu over an extremely virus-ridden windows-xp on my parents' laptop, but they hate it, so now i need to reinstall xp.... but when i put the xp disc in, ubuntu is recognising it only as a blank disc, but on MY laptop with ubuntu, it recognises the disc just fine... why is the other ubuntu not able to recognise the windows disc? | 04:05 |
| kevin__ | inx-live: ye hes got the gtk | 04:05 |
| Rampou | kevin__, ok, i notice for future :) | 04:05 |
| scunizi | screamsayonara: put the disk in and then restart the machine.. | 04:06 |
| inx-live | chiggins: find the windows xp driver via google, unzip and copy the *.inf file to a jump drive or something, then go to Menu > System > Wireless Drivers | 04:06 |
| scunizi | screamsayonara: boot from the xp cd | 04:06 |
| krdyt | there what a help chan tho at one time | 04:06 |
| inx-live | chiggins: and get the *.inf file from the jump drive | 04:06 |
| kevin__ | inx-live: that is a good idea inx i am totally forgot about how easy linux has got. | 04:06 |
| screamsayonara | i tried that already, but i will try again | 04:06 |
| krdyt | community/users helping other users | 04:06 |
| chiggins | inx-live k | 04:06 |
| owen1 | boss_mc: so if i don't see openssh it's not there by default? | 04:06 |
| salmon | yet again, no help, good night all | 04:07 |
| screamsayonara | no it just goes to ubuntu, i even changed it in bios to boot first from the cd | 04:07 |
| inx-live | chiggins: & kevin__ Did ye remmod r8186? | 04:07 |
| boss_mc | owen1: openssh-server is not | 04:07 |
| Rampou | bye all | 04:07 |
| kevin__ | inx-live: lol, what do you mean by remod it? | 04:07 |
| inx-live | chiggins & kevin__ He may have to blacklist r8186 as well - I'm not sure | 04:08 |
| krdyt | rww, do you use 9.04 yet? | 04:08 |
| kevin__ | oh, | 04:08 |
| owen1 | boss_mc: sudo aptitude show ubuntu-desktop | grep ssh doesn't show openssh either. | 04:08 |
| inx-live | rmmod sorry | 04:08 |
| SuperSenior | matrixblue, i cant get the laptop to stay on. even though the icon on the keyboard shows it as running of ac power, it warns of critical battery level and shuts off | 04:08 |
| rww | krdyt: Yes. | 04:08 |
| kevin__ | inx-live: yeah i told him he may have to blacklist his exising wirelss. | 04:08 |
| inx-live | chiggins & kevin__ I have to go | 04:08 |
| matrixblue | SuperSenior, it seems you have bigger problems than the wireless then | 04:08 |
| boss_mc | owen1: cos ssh isn't installed by default | 04:08 |
| krdyt | are you able to play divx and or xvid movies? i cant get mine to work, only audio comes out | 04:08 |
| chiggins | inx-live well thanks for the help! | 04:08 |
| SuperSenior | matrixblue no kidding haha | 04:09 |
| kevin__ | k cya later inx-live i will try and get chiggins to his wirless | 04:09 |
| scunizi | screamsayonara: that doesn't make any sense.. do you still have a live cd? try that.. if it boots to that then it should boot to the xp install cd.. could be that the laptop has "recovery" cd's that you need to use. | 04:09 |
| inx-live | chiggins: your welcome, not sure how much I really helped. I think you are in good hands with kevin__ :) | 04:09 |
| chiggins | kevin__ whats the command to remove the driver | 04:09 |
| inx-live | night /me waves good night | 04:09 |
| owen1 | boss_mc: got it. so if i want to connect to ssh server i need ssh client, and if i also want to let others connect to me i need openssh-server? | 04:09 |
| kevin__ | um, its not remove it iss a config file that will blacklist it | 04:09 |
| boss_mc | screamsayonara: sounds like dodgy drive tbh | 04:09 |
| boss_mc | owen1: yes | 04:10 |
| SuperSenior | the ac light is clearly on, but it doesnt seem to want to run of ac....... hmmmm | 04:10 |
| screamsayonara | but the ubuntu cd worked just fine... | 04:10 |
| krdyt | rww, are you able to play divx and or xvid movies? i cant get mine to work, only audio comes out | 04:10 |
| screamsayonara | :| | 04:10 |
| rww | krdyt: yes | 04:10 |
| owen1 | boss_mc: so i guess even the client is not there. | 04:10 |
| krdyt | sorry i asked twice, i forgot your nick in there the first tim | 04:10 |
| rww | krdyt: it prompted me to install some codecs the first time I played one in totem. | 04:10 |
| chiggins | kevin__ how do i blacklist it then | 04:10 |
| krdyt | rww, mine wont play, anything you can recommend to help me out? | 04:11 |
| boss_mc | owen1: a client is installed... | 04:11 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 04:11 |
| boss_mc | owen1: it might be a dependency of a dependency.... | 04:11 |

| Poopface | Anyone have a solution to this error: "Could not find kernal image: Linux" when trying to boot from usb?? | 04:34 |
| ctmjr | johnf, yep does not work for me either | 04:35 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: k bud we got some answers and some solutins f'sho | 04:35 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: first download this driver javascript:void(0); | 04:36 |
| kevin__ | ill link you | 04:36 |
| jedi06 | scott_ino2 i only saw 8.04 | 04:36 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=4&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true | 04:36 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: download the unix(linux) driver for kernel 2.6.x | 04:36 |
| burvowski | boss_mc I think I can move files in terminal with sudo...should i just do that | 04:37 |
| scott_ino2 | jedi06... it's fine I believe that's what I installed, they're always behind on what's put on there | 04:37 |
| chiggins | kevin__ ok | 04:37 |
| mib_clsy82 | whats the name of the screensaver that displays random images from the web? i think it was in the package xscreensaverdata-extra | 04:37 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: okay, we will try the simple method first and see if it works | 04:37 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: system administration hardware drivers | 04:38 |
| zgmf-x20a | scunizi: hmmm that didnt really help to much. i think i need to rephrase here | 04:39 |
| Iron_Chef | how can I change my keyring password? | 04:39 |
| mib_clsy82 | whats the name of the screensaver that displays random images from the web? | 04:39 |
| oenone | hello | 04:39 |
| scunizi | zgmf-x20a: you have a itouch? | 04:40 |
| chiggins | kevin__ ok | 04:40 |
| Iron_Chef | mib_clsy82, just slideshow? in the advanced settings (i'm guessing) | 04:40 |
| oenone | my pc will crash if i use docky and playing videos | 04:40 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: can you figure that way out? | 04:40 |
| zgmf-x20a | does anyone have an ipod touch, and has been able to sync it with ANY app on ubuntu 9.04, without sunxvm, jailbreaking, etc. | 04:40 |
| kevin__ | oenone: damn that sucsk you need integrated gfx or a new laptop lol. | 04:40 |
| zgmf-x20a | scunizi: yes, just bought it. thought rhthm box would just sync with it | 04:40 |
| zgmf-x20a | very dissapointed it didnt work | 04:40 |
| oenone | im not using a laptop | 04:40 |
| boss_mc | burvowski, you can, but you'll want to mount the drive as readable by the user to get them back... | 04:41 |
| oenone | im on a desktop with a 4870 viceocard | 04:41 |
| kevin__ | oenone: damn.. i can watch vids with docky | 04:41 |
| boss_mc | burvowski: also, you could end up with ownership issues | 04:41 |
| jedi06 | scott_ino2, yea i'm on 64 bit | 04:41 |
| oenone | hmmm may somthings wrong with my config | 04:41 |
| jedi06 | do they have that | 04:41 |
| scunizi | zgmf-x20a: that link tells you that the touch is "locked" and needs to be jailbreaked in order to sync. this is not for the faint hearted. doing it wrong will distroy the itouch.. another solution would be to run virtualbox and then load windows into that so you can use itunes | 04:41 |
| burvowski | boss_mc so how can we get it so i don't have to be root to access the drive? it seems like this is happening somewhere in the creation process | 04:41 |
| scott_ino2 | jedi06, me too : 0 there's no 64bit skype | 04:41 |
| scott_ino2 | you just have to force the package and make sure you have the 32 bit libraries | 04:42 |
| kevin__ | zgmf-x20a: do you have to hook it up to a windows machine and make sure its formated correctly before syncing in linux? | 04:42 |
| mib_clsy82 | Iron_chef: its not the default one. i added it via synaptic | 04:42 |
| chiggins | kevin__ what ya mean, i have it open | 04:43 |
| Iron_Chef | ok | 04:43 |
| Iron_Chef | dunno :-) | 04:43 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: yeah you have to open that driver we just downloaded and set it for the pci card | 04:43 |
| zgmf-x20a | scunizi: yes, i read that... kinda want to stay away from windows... but seems unavoidable. ubuntu unfortunately is so far away from plug and play... sighhhhhhhh lol. | 04:43 |
| Iron_Chef | does anyone know how to change the keyring password? | 04:43 |
| kevin__ | and if that doesnt work we have a little bit of work to get it working. | 04:43 |
| Iron_Chef | i can't find it anywhere | 04:43 |

| simoncpu | FeasibilityStudy: btw, does it require kde libs? | 04:46 |
| kevin__ | zgmf-x20a: alpple is a joke in the fact you are forced to use itunes unless you are pro like us | 04:46 |
| FeasibilityStudy | simoncpu probably :( I think it's a KDE app. | 04:46 |
| FeasibilityStudy | simoncpu but it shouldnt matter. | 04:46 |

| kevin__ | chiggins: do a sudo ifconfig eth1 down | 04:48 |
| sparr | wizzo50: you want to run windows antivirus software in linux? | 04:48 |
| kevin__ | chiggins: then retry the hardware drivers gui | 04:48 |
| lstarnes | wizzo50: I don't believe you can use that on linux and you wouldn't need to either | 04:48 |
| kevin__ | wizzo50: linux is virus free for the time being. | 04:48 |
| chiggins | kevin__ same thing | 04:48 |
| FeasibilityStudy | simoncpu just try digiKam by itself and then if you need more, then try showfoto | 04:48 |

| wizzo50 | But it is from Windstream broadband | 04:52 |
| lstarnes | screamsayonara: you would likely need build-essential, but doesn't wine have a repository with prebuild .deb packages? | 04:52 |

| kevin__ | then retry that gui for the drivers | 04:56 |

| sparr | nafunu: what makes you think its the video card and not the monitor? | 05:50 |
| nafunu | because the laptop running windows XP displays fine. | 05:51 |
| nafunu | oh, you mean the issue. I dunno | 05:51 |
| bucky | guest7560: you prolly need elks-libc | 05:51 |
| davidb_csh | markymark, so the other machines have static ips with the gateway set to the ip of the 2nd nic on the host machine | 05:51 |
| davidb_csh | ? | 05:51 |
| guest7560 | bucky: installed it, nope | 05:51 |
| nafunu | so perhaps updating the monitor drivers would help? | 05:51 |
| bucky | hmm.. dunno | 05:51 |
| markymark | davidb_csh, yes for the windows xp machine it was configured. | 05:51 |
| sleepy_cat | how to force a mount.. it seems i did not close properly on windows.. so its not loading onto ubuntu | 05:52 |
| bucky | anyone else running jackie jauntilope ? | 05:52 |
| markymark | davidb_csh, for the ubuntu machine. i am confused as there are so many guides around | 05:52 |
| racecar56 | me | 05:52 |
| racecar56 | but u spelled it wrong :| | 05:52 |
| unitheory | sleepy_cat, do you know the name of the drive ? like /dev/sda1 ? | 05:52 |
| nafunu | spa | 05:52 |
| sleepy_cat | yep its a USB HDD | 05:53 |
| sleepy_cat | and in /media/disk/ it comes as Software and Work 2 drives | 05:53 |
| davidb_csh | markymark, the easiest way is probably to right click on the network manager icon in the task area -> edit connections -> eth0 -> edit ipv4 settings and set them up similarly to the xp machine with a different ip | 05:54 |

| Ademan | how the heck does one configure gnome-do? | 05:54 |
| markymark | davidb_csh, that is one problem. since i have configured through the cli. network manager i think if i am not mistaken is not yet compatible with pppoe. that is why to connect to the internet, i had to execute sudo pppoeconf on the terminal | 05:55 |

| KayKay | ? | 05:56 |
| markymark | davidb_csh, this is on the host machine. for the other machine. the same thing applies network manager does not seem to detect or possibly it is configured wrong. would it be possible for you to point to a link: i could proceed from there. | 05:56 |
| tonsofpcs | KayKay: i just asked that, no fair having the same problem :-p | 05:56 |

| tonsofpcs | ^Phantom^: try #vmware | 05:58 |

| ^Phantom^ | I did all of that, tonsofpcs . | 05:59 |
| guest7560 | does not anyone have any ideea as to why I get this error ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; whenever I try to link an assembly probram? | 06:00 |
| tonsofpcs | ^Phantom^: you can probably somehow set that device id to not activate | 06:00 |
| tonsofpcs | no clue how | 06:00 |
| tonsofpcs | but somehow :) | 06:00 |
| bluesmoon | guest7560: it means that something in your program is trying to use a symbol named _start, but nothing in your program provides that. try grepping though your code for _start | 06:01 |
| om26er | hello | 06:01 |

| stealth- | om26er: I think | 06:03 |
| davidb_csh | guest7560, well segfault means it's actually running. couldn't tell you why without looking at your code/what assembler you're using | 06:03 |
| guest7560 | davidb_csh, found the trouble, it was a misspelling :P sorry for the question | 06:04 |
| om26er | yesterday i was installing kde and instalation was interrupted and i know some data was copied so is there a way to remove them | 06:04 |

| [EmPEroR] | buenas noches... como instalo java? ubuntu 9 04 | 06:08 |
| tiede | @KayKay do you know for sure your laptop has a bluetooth chipset? | 06:08 |
| KayKay | not very sure .. it does have a bluetooth icon on the panel ( between the wireless key ) | 06:09 |
| KayKay | how do i know | 06:09 |
| KayKay | can i do a scan of pci devices ? | 06:09 |
| ectospasm | KayKay: lspci | 06:09 |
| unitheory | [EmPEroR], sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin | 06:09 |
| ectospasm | KayKay: unless it's usb, then use lsusb | 06:09 |
| uskrewed | what OS should I load up on an Asus netbook? | 06:10 |
| KayKay | would it be to paste the output of lspci here (etiquette ? ) | 06:10 |
| kazagistar | om26er: the easiest way would probably be to fully install all the packages, and then remove them using http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome.php | 06:10 |
| ectospasm | uskrewed: you can try the netbook remix | 06:10 |
| unitheory | uskrewed, your favorite OS of course | 06:10 |
| uskrewed | ubuntu netbook remix? | 06:10 |
| ectospasm | KayKay: no, pastebin | 06:10 |
| tiede | no... use pastebin.org and link here. | 06:10 |
| tiede | @KayKay !paste | 06:11 |
| ectospasm | !paste | KayKay | 06:11 |
| ubottu | KayKay: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic | 06:11 |
| om26er | in the given wesite there are two ways | 06:11 |
| [EmPEroR] | unitheory thaaaanks !!!!! | 06:11 |
| unitheory | [EmPEroR], de nada ;] | 06:12 |
| KayKay | http://paste.ubuntu.com/196084/ | 06:12 |
| om26er | one is to remove kubuntu and the other ubuntu | 06:12 |
| ectospasm | KayKay: in Ubuntu the Bluetooth icon should appear in your systray if Bluetooth is recognized and enabled. | 06:12 |
| om26er | i copied the kubuntu and its renoving | 06:12 |
| KayKay | @ectospasm - I do not see such an icon | 06:12 |
| KayKay | I have put the lspci output at - http://paste.ubuntu.com/196084/ | 06:13 |
| ectospasm | wtf? Why the @? My client doesn't highlight that... | 06:13 |
| tiede | @KayKay you don't have any bluetooth chipset listed there. | 06:13 |
| kazagistar | om26er: actually, the second is to remove Xubuntu.... either way, if you only want to get rid of KDE, follow the Xubuntu guideline | 06:13 |
| CleanLaundry | whats the command to start the vmware server? | 06:13 |
| tiede | @KayKay try lspci and check it out... | 06:13 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: /etc/init.d/vmware start | 06:13 |
| om26er | ya | 06:13 |
| KayKay | @tiede - That was the output of lspci command.. | 06:13 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, thank you sir | 06:13 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: note that just starts server, NOT the guest OS | 06:14 |
| kazagistar | ectoplasm: perhaps your client is missing an important feature, then. | 06:14 |
| KayKay | so - is there like a usb based bluetooth chipset that I can buy ( ubuntu supported ? ) | 06:14 |
| om26er | kde is kubuntu | 06:14 |
| whatvn | om26er, no | 06:14 |
| kazagistar | om26er: sorry, thats what I meant | 06:14 |
| whatvn | kde is kde | 06:14 |
| ectospasm | kazagistar: no, my client is fine. No need to type an extra character IMO. | 06:14 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, yes, I will connect through the brower thanks | 06:14 |
| om26er | in kubuntu k is for kde | 06:15 |
| julia22 | I guess I'm not the first asking here: packages.ubuntu.com seems to be down. Any mirrors? | 06:15 |

| Jerusalem420 | E: Unable to lock the download directory" any ideas? | 06:15 |
| om26er | how to install xfce | 06:15 |
| tiede | there are plenty of chipsets out there, and most places have loads of bluetooth usb sticks. THe technology is fairly standard, so anything should work. correct me if I am wrong, anyone. | 06:15 |
| ectospasm | om26er: aptitude -y install xubuntu-desktop | 06:15 |
| tiede | @KayKay sorry, see previous post | 06:16 |
| kazagistar | ectospasm: I think it is more practical to fix a client (either write the code or a bug report) than to fix other peoples habits on something as arbitrary as IRC notation | 06:16 |
| ectospasm | kazagistar: I've only seen the @ references today, and I've been using IRC for a long time. | 06:16 |
| Jerusalem420 | what could be locking /var/cache/apt/archives/lock? | 06:16 |
| ectospasm | Jerusalem420: you could try "lsof | grpe /var/cache/apt/archives/lock | 06:17 |
| ectospasm | " | 06:17 |
| tiede | @Jerusalem420 that means you have two instances of the program runnung | 06:17 |
| whatvn | Jerusalem420, or auto-update is running | 06:17 |
| julia22 | I can't connect to http://packages.ubuntu.com | 06:17 |
| julia22 | does it happen to anybody else? | 06:17 |
| tiede | @Jerusalem420 make sure you don't have both apt-get through the terminal, the auto-updater or Synaptics running at the same time | 06:18 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, you wouldnt have any experience installing vmware server by change would you? | 06:18 |
| whatvn | julia22, dns problem | 06:18 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: just a smidge | 06:18 |
| KayKay | @tiede , Thanks. I am looking at Amazon here for - Bluetooth USB +edr Adapter Class 2 V2.0 | 06:18 |
| julia22 | whatvn: thanks. | 06:18 |
| ectospasm | whatvn: yours or theirs? I can't seem to get to it either, julia22 | 06:18 |

| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, lol, well... I guess I have to reconfigure my config, but it wont let me start doing that untill i get ride of these kernel modules vmco, vmmon, vmnet. Are these created during the config? | 06:19 |
| tiede | @KayKay Yes. Bluetooth is apple's technology, so it | 06:19 |
| randal | hi how do i check my system specs in ubuntu | 06:19 |
| tiede | @KayKay Yes. Bluetooth is apple's technology, so it's pretty standard... | 06:19 |
| om26er | ok i am resarting | 06:19 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: yes, if you pay attention to the install you'll notice it compiles those. | 06:19 |
| julia22 | ectospasm: whatvn: any mirrors? | 06:19 |
| Jerusalem420 | i killed update-notifier. that seems the only likely candidate in both top and system monitor. didn't help. | 06:20 |
| whatvn | julia22, please run sudo apt-get update, pastebin your error | 06:20 |
| ectospasm | julia22: what do you need packages.ubuntu.com for? sources.list? | 06:20 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, yes, but for some reason it asked me to compile them and install them, which I selected to do so, then right after it finished, or maybe it failed some how, it asked me again to do the same thing | 06:20 |
| Jerusalem420 | i'm tempted to try a microsoft solution (i.e. reboot) | 06:20 |
| ectospasm | I can give you the mirrors I use for sources.list julia22 | 06:20 |
| randal | hey does anyone know how to check you computer specs in ubuntu | 06:20 |
| julia22 | whatvn: I just wanted to visit the website and search for a package in all the distros | 06:20 |
| ectospasm | Jerusalem420: you could try "lsof | grpe /var/cache/apt/archives/lock" | 06:21 |
| ectospasm | er | 06:21 |
| ectospasm | grep | 06:21 |
| ectospasm | not grpe | 06:21 |
| FloodBot2 | ectospasm: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:21 |
| julia22 | I'm looking for the package libsafe | 06:21 |
| Jerusalem420 | ecto, i tried that (but made it grep instead) and got no output | 06:21 |
| ectospasm | Flood? Methinks the bot is too sensitive | 06:21 |
| Jerusalem420 | me agrees | 06:21 |
| ectospasm | you don't have synaptic, or aptitude or any apt related program running, do you? | 06:21 |
| tiede | @randal what specs are you looking for exactly? | 06:22 |
| randal | every part in my computer | 06:22 |
| Jerusalem420 | not that i can detect | 06:22 |
| randal | tiede: like video card cpu ect | 06:22 |

| julia22 | ectospasm: but I want to install it anyway | 06:23 |
| ectospasm | julia22: you can always find a repo that's got it, just gotta google harder | 06:23 |
| Jerusalem420 | ecto et al, thanks for your help. ive got to get going to work. | 06:23 |
| randal | tiede: thanks | 06:23 |
| ectospasm | ...or if you've got a source tarball, that way should always work. | 06:23 |
| tiede | @randal, you might want to save that, so i'd suggest doing sudo lshw >> ~/Desktop/lshw.output instead | 06:23 |

| tryp7amine | anyone here | 06:31 |
| KayKay | (of course - I could download the b14 from the jdk site - but checking the update cycle ) | 06:31 |
| tiede | @sagani if you can download the file from packages.ubuntu.com, then double-click to install it | 06:32 |
| === hehe is now known as needahand | ||
| tiede | @sagani it's also a good idea to try and update your sources.list to look for any errors... (sudo apt-get update) | 06:32 |
| sagani | double clicking on that giving package might be corrupted error.. | 06:32 |
| tiede | @KayKay you might have to wait a little while. ubuntu usually follows a change upstream before committing to a new version... | 06:33 |
| Rolcol | I gave a friend a login to my machine and I'd like to block him from printing anything | 06:33 |
| wekt | Is there a way to get apt(itude) to not worry about missing Release.gpg signature for packages accessed by the file:// transport? | 06:34 |
| tiede | @KayKay if there aren't huge differences, you should be able to do everything smoothly... anyways, the latest linux version of java will always be available at sun.com (remember that they support open source) | 06:34 |
| wekt | Rolcol: I think you only need to remove him from the right groups. Perhaps cups or cups something. | 06:34 |
| tiede | @sagani. in a terminal, try sudo apt-get purge <package-name>(without version number) and try again... | 06:35 |
| KayKay | @tiede Thanks . That is what I thought. Is there a page more about volunteering information for the packaging . ( As far as the feature in b14 that I am interested is - G1 garbage collector ) | 06:35 |

| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: it looks like the installer is saying someone or something already did, but it's not an error. | 06:38 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, its asking me to install them again, no? | 06:38 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, yes, then rerain the config | 06:38 |
| KayKay | @wekt - Thanks for the suggestion about icedtea. In work - we use sun jdk | 06:38 |
| om26er | it gives an error | 06:38 |
| tiede | @sagani two package manager will never run together. one will block the other from running. | 06:38 |
| indus | solorvox: have you installed the ia 32 bit libs? | 06:38 |
| KayKay | hence- i may need to stick with the same. | 06:38 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: vmmod was already installed again, it did it becayse you said 'yes' | 06:38 |
| indus | solorvox: its probably installed by default | 06:39 |
| solorvox | indus, game runs, just has no sound. And error logs show it can't load the sdl-mixer. Yep, install the ia32 libs | 06:39 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: now it's asking you to install vmci | 06:39 |

| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: no problem | 06:40 |
| tiede | @sagani and then try again | 06:40 |

| tiede | nothing at all, ectospasm | 06:52 |
| tiede | @ectospasm, maybe #sis is not the right channel... | 06:52 |
| ectospasm | tiede: so maybe it's not for the SiS chipsets. | 06:52 |
| ectospasm | yep | 06:53 |
| ectospasm | tiede: did you try #xorg? | 06:53 |
| tiede | @ectopasm... 51 idlers... at least there are idlers there... :( | 06:54 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, ok, I am lost, is there a .deb for vmware somewhere? | 06:54 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: don't know. Don't think so, unless someone's made one from the tarball | 06:55 |
| ectospasm | ...and even if they did, they probably wouldn't have a right to distribute it. | 06:55 |
| CartoonCat | ok, hows, What serivce monitors the battery ? | 06:56 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, I see. how can I stop vmware from bridging my net connection? | 06:56 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, I believe thats what I configured, or to not even set it up at all right now | 06:56 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: turn off network bridging, in the web GUI | 06:56 |
| CleanLaundry | thats at http://12.0.0.1:8333? | 06:57 |
| ectospasm | Well, if you tear down the bridge, the guest OSes won't have a connection | 06:57 |
| owen1 | when i add audio file to a video in kino the audio is too fast. any ideas? | 06:57 |
| kekegg_ | #mer | 06:57 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: 8333 or 8222, I forget which | 06:57 |
| ectospasm | I think it's 8333 | 06:57 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, not worried about having a connection atm, just trying to get vmware server running | 06:57 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: you must be doing a lot wrong, since the bridgingin "just works" for me | 06:57 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, ya alot is not going so good right now | 06:58 |
| ectospasm | CleanLaundry: I chose defaults for practically everything | 06:58 |
| gum76 | even your video card, ecto? | 06:58 |
| CleanLaundry | ectospasm, I mean, typing vmware in the terminal I get this @@PRODUCT_NAME@@ is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured | 06:58 |
| CleanLaundry | for the running kernel. To (re-)configure it, invoke the | 06:58 |
| CleanLaundry | following command: /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl. | 06:58 |
| CleanLaundry | gar, sorry | 06:58 |
| FloodBot2 | CleanLaundry: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:58 |
| CleanLaundry | for the multiple psts | 06:58 |
| ectospasm | gum76: we're talking about VMWare Server | 06:59 |
| gum76 | oh okay, ecto, sorry, confusion | 06:59 |
| flakeparadigm | hello | 06:59 |

| ectospasm | gum76: but to answer your question, the only thing non-default I do about my video card is install the restricted drivers | 07:00 |
| cbcbilling | hello all | 07:00 |
| ectospasm | ...everything else "just works" | 07:00 |
| gum76 | anyone, i have intell graphics on the motherboard will 9.04 ubuntu run Compiz (which i know nothing about aside from a demo i saw at LUG) | 07:00 |
| gum76 | intel | 07:00 |
| cbcbilling | is there anyone who can help me how to disable my excess tty's | 07:00 |
| cbcbilling | help please | 07:01 |
| ectospasm | gum76: which specific intel graphics? | 07:01 |
| flakeparadigm | I am trying to find a way to control programs from the terminal. Does anyone know of any? | 07:01 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: "excess ttys?" What do you mean? Define "excess?" | 07:01 |
| gum76 | ecto, can't say | 07:01 |
| kevin__ | gum76: i have integrate gfx but dont use compiz, however have in the past.. | 07:01 |
| tiede | @gum76 it depends on which chipset it is, whether it even has proper 3D capabilities, and lastly, if it is able to work in ubuntu/linux (through or by bypassing the whitelist)... | 07:02 |
| gum76 | ok, honestly i thin, Kevin, i would prefer Fluxbox | 07:02 |
| ectospasm | gum76: if it's new enough there shouldn't be a problem | 07:02 |
| cbcbilling | is there anyone who can help me how to disable my excess tty's cause i saw a thread from a certain forum but it works only for gutsy | 07:02 |
| adante | hi, how do i mount an ntfs drive now? i try mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1 /path/to/mount and it says "fuse: mount failed: Invalid argument" | 07:02 |
| kevin__ | gum76: its up to you, i just use compiz for wobbly windows | 07:02 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: what do you want to do that for? What do you mean by "excess ttys?" | 07:02 |
| kevin__ | adante: did you sudo your mount | 07:02 |
| adante | kevin__: yes | 07:02 |
| gum76 | ok, thanks for the invo ectospasm and kevin :) see you guys around :) | 07:02 |
| kevin__ | adante: what does your /etc/fstab report | 07:03 |
| gum76 | info | 07:03 |
| adante | kevin__: nothing | 07:03 |
| kevin__ | ?? | 07:03 |
| adante | kevin__: it has no entry for /dev/sdc1 i mean | 07:03 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] the thing is there are 6 tty by default on ubuntu | 07:03 |
| kevin__ | adante: are you going to make an entry in fstab for automoutn? | 07:03 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] that 6 tty eats alot of memmory | 07:03 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] that 6 tty eats alot of memmory | 07:03 |
| adante | kevin__: no i just want to mount it now once off to get something off it urgently | 07:04 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: are you smoking something? | 07:04 |
| kevin__ | ok, | 07:04 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] so i want to disable it | 07:04 |
| ectospasm | I've got 69 ttys | 07:04 |
| gum76 | doesn't take any memory | 07:04 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: what does the output of "ls -l /dev/tty* | wc -l" say? | 07:04 |
| gum76 | unless you're running something on it | 07:04 |
| kevin__ | adante: you paste that mount again? | 07:04 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] my ram is only 256mb | 07:04 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: disabling ttys won't help | 07:04 |
| adante | kevin__: sure, hangon | 07:05 |
| kevin__ | adante: what does you fdisk -l read | 07:05 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] really | 07:05 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] i thought it would help cause that from a forum that i googled | 07:05 |
| ectospasm | ttys are console devices that don't take any RAM, like gum76 said, unless you're logged into them. I mean, you might be able to free like 15KB RAM | 07:05 |
| adante | kevin__: http://pastebin.com/m4bd7cf9b | 07:05 |
| kevin__ | cbcbilling: you should try xfce its design for low rams | 07:05 |
| ectospasm | Not worth the trouble disabling them. | 07:05 |
| flakeparadigm | Does anyone know how to control GUI programs from the terminal? | 07:05 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: doesn't make any sense. | 07:06 |
| adante | kevin__: i updated the pastebin post to provide fdisk -l output | 07:06 |
| kevin__ | kk | 07:06 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] oic, thank you so much for the info | 07:06 |

| hippo | Though, there is a project called netbook-launcher, the UI is different. | 07:06 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] gnome | 07:07 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] i would like to switch to xfce | 07:07 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: maybe try something more lightweight, like xfce or fluxbox or fvwm | 07:07 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] :) | 07:07 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: so, "aptitude -y install xubuntu-desktop" done | 07:07 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] i would like to but i dont have the skills to do it | 07:08 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] thanks dude | 07:08 |
| kevin__ | cbcbilling: simply sudo apt-get install xfce-desktop | 07:08 |
| kevin__ | i think thats the command.. | 07:08 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] ill try that one | 07:08 |
| cbcbilling | [ectospasm] do i need to put sudo | 07:09 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: unless you're logged in as root, yes | 07:09 |
| cbcbilling | oh thanks guys | 07:09 |
| ectospasm | kevin__: it's xubuntu-desktop | 07:09 |
| CartoonCat | so does no one have any idea what cuases the lockups at "checking battery status" ? ive tried with acpi turned off, no luck | 07:09 |

| cbcbilling | it really scares me alot | 07:11 |
| cbcbilling | trully newbie on linux | 07:11 |
| Squarc | Hey all, I have recently copied my complete installation from a single disk to a raid partition (the single disk was sometimes failing to respond and linux was thus laggin verry much)... I did instal dmraid etc, but everytime I boot now I get the loading screen with bouncing dash, after a while I get dropped into a initramfs shell, in which I have to execute these two commands: "dmraid -ay" and "exit" (duh).... after that it boots on, as exp | 07:11 |
| Squarc | (srry for the huge message) | 07:12 |
| tiede | @cbcbilling no. it will only *add* xfce to what you had before | 07:12 |
| Squarc | how to get "dmraid -ay" executed so I wont have to run it myself in that initramfs shell ? | 07:12 |
| myself | i am myself | 07:12 |
| cbcbilling | how much space would it takes on my hard drive | 07:13 |
| bucky | Squarc: there's a resume option somewhere out of the initrd | 07:13 |
| Squarc | bucky: well yes, but wasnt it true I could paste the command in some kind of rc# file ? | 07:14 |
| FrozenFire | Weird issue. xsel doesn't seem to be able to modify my selection. It cannot replace or delete it, but it can clear the selection (unselect it) | 07:14 |
| bucky | Squarc: it's in a blog somewhere.. looking for it now | 07:15 |

| cbcbilling | guys after installing xfce do i need to reboot my machine | 07:23 |
| indus | cmannn: aah that | 07:23 |
| indus | cmannn: type nm-applet in command line | 07:24 |
| ectospasm | cbcbilling: probably log out, and choose xfce from your WM/DE chooser | 07:24 |
| cmannn | ok | 07:24 |
| ectospasm | then log back in | 07:24 |
| indus | cmannn: terminal i mean | 07:24 |
| sagaci | owh: in all programs | 07:24 |
| owh | cbcbilling: It is *generally* not required to reboot linux unless you've updated the kernel. | 07:24 |
| owh | sagaci: No. | 07:24 |
| ectospasm | owh: sometimes it's more expedient to | 07:24 |
| === goose is now known as DJ_Goose | ||
| indus | cmannn: better than that,just logout and login | 07:24 |
| owh | sagaci: You can remove the window manager and not have any windows, which would achieve what you describe, but interacting with it would be a challenge. | 07:25 |
| cmannn | i tried tat and both of thoes dont work | 07:25 |
| owh | sagaci: I do not recommend that. | 07:25 |
| owh | cmannn: You might need to change the startup session. When you logout, the menu on the bottom left has all manner of session options. | 07:26 |
| cmannn | ok ill try that | 07:26 |
| baday | j | 07:27 |
| baday | #dumai | 07:27 |
| owh | baday: Yes? | 07:27 |
| sagaci | owh: yeah i see, i just wanted to salvage more vertical space | 07:27 |
| owh | sagaci: Some themes have smaller title bars. You can also fiddle with the font. | 07:28 |
| ActionParsnip | sagaci: are you on about in firefox? | 07:28 |
| james7 | why ubuntu is releasing a lot of new versions as never before.. they just release 9.04! now they have a new beat wow | 07:28 |
| james7 | maybe cause the kernel is evolving very fast? | 07:28 |
| owh | james7: The ubuntu release schedule has not changed. Once every six months. | 07:29 |
| sagaci | owh: ah ok yeah, it's already set to 8pt | 07:29 |
| baday | #indonesia | 07:29 |
| baday | #dumai | 07:29 |
| sagaci | ActionParsnip: yes, in firefox | 07:29 |
| baday | #join | 07:29 |
| owh | baday: Try: /join #dumai | 07:29 |
| james7 | owh: is 9.04 that old?.. i think its about 3 months isnt | 07:29 |
| owh | james7: It came out in April of 2009. | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | sagaci: use the liquifox theme and tiny menu | 07:30 |
| owh | james7: The next one is due in October. | 07:30 |
| ActionParsnip | sagaci: makes things all on a single very thin row | 07:30 |
| owh | s/due/scheduled for release/ | 07:30 |
| sagaci | james7: ubuntu main releases are every 6 months, these alpha and beta releases are moreso for testing purposes and developers only | 07:30 |
| owh | ActionParsnip: In Firefox you can just hit F11. | 07:30 |
| ActionParsnip | sagaci: you have to rearrange stuff once you have those 2 installed but its real small but usable | 07:30 |
| bucky | Kosmic Kola is in it's second trimester | 07:30 |
| ActionParsnip | owh: true, same in all the popular browsers | 07:31 |
| owh | james7: If you want a stable machine, then only install the LTS releases, 6.06 came out in June of 2006, 8.04 came out in April 2008. | 07:31 |
| owh | ActionParsnip: Less work, pressing F11 vs. installing stuff :) | 07:31 |
| om26er1 | firefox 3.5beta stable on ubuntu or not?? | 07:31 |
| om26er1 | plz tell | 07:31 |
| g1er | does the new ubuntu have better bcm3418 support? | 07:31 |
| g1er | 4318* | 07:31 |
| owh | g1er: Define better. | 07:32 |
| ActionParsnip | owh: indeed but i enjoy making stuff slimlined | 07:32 |
| indus | owh: stable and long term support are not related | 07:32 |
| owh | indus: Of course they are :) | 07:32 |
| g1er | I can't manage to see open wireless connections on intrepid (very new to linux) | 07:32 |
| james7 | owh: thanks but i prefer the newer kernels... 9.04 detects my apple mighty mouse and wireless keyboard instantly.. i was very surprised.. 6.06 was not able to do that | 07:32 |
| james7 | owh: i really like the way ubuntu is growing | 07:33 |
| bucky | firefox 3.5beta is stable in jaunty... but my old ps2 mouse wasn't, had to finally break down and buy a usb mouse | 07:33 |
| owh | g1er: Are you using native drivers, or are you using the wrappers? | 07:33 |
| indus | owh: LTS is for people who dont want to upgrade immediately but want to run their OS version a lot longer than other users | 07:34 |
| g1er | native (whatever loaded with the cd), thinking the next step is windows driver + fwcutter, then wrapper? | 07:34 |
| owh | indus: And how is that not stable? | 07:34 |
| g1er | running intrepid | 07:34 |
| owh | indus: From a sys-admin perspective, stuff that doesn't change is stable. | 07:35 |
| owh | g1er: Did you find any bug-reports on LP? | 07:35 |
| ActionParsnip | owh: this is how my firefox is: http://s270.photobucket.com/albums/jj93/andrew_woodhead666/?action=view¤t=thin.jpg | 07:35 |
| james7 | owh: the reason people do this is because seems that ubuntu had not fix that bugs.. i was not able to install 9.04 "over" 8.04 successfully.. i had to install everything from scratch.. and some people are just lazy to back up and design and install everything again | 07:35 |
| james7 | i hope that 9.10 fix this.. | 07:35 |
| indus | owh:stability is affected not by using a certain version but by changing to a newer version ,certain regressions or hardware incompatibilities might make things unstable in larger installations like a college or univ | 07:36 |
| g1er | owh: not sure what LP is. I did see a few errors when installing. also BCM43xx isn't showing in package manager | 07:36 |
| indus | owh: so LTS in a way denotes stability of the installed work environment instead of the OS itslef | 07:36 |
| owh | ActionParsnip: Doesn't seem worth the effort. Set icons to tiny, change the font down, no installation needed. | 07:36 |
| owh | g1er: LP is Launchpad, the place where we track bugs. | 07:37 |
| g1er | ah. ok thanks. will check it out | 07:37 |
| indus | owh: but nvm :) | 07:37 |
| owh | indus: My only point was that stability means different things for different people. | 07:37 |
| ActionParsnip | owh: the menus still take up horizontal space so tiny menu collapses them into a single button (file, edit, view etc) | 07:37 |
| owh | phone | 07:38 |
| james7 | indus: that could be resolved if ubuntu fix the bug of installing a new version over the older and not loosing everything or having to backup | 07:38 |
| james7 | and having* | 07:38 |
| indus | owh: ya i agree but non LTS doesnt mean unstable at all | 07:38 |
| james7 | indus: i hope they fix that with ubuntu 9.10.. so i dont need to erase 9.04 and install everything all over again | 07:38 |
| indus | james7: hmmm ? i installed over 8.10 and its fine | 07:39 |
| stevr1it | help needed for thunderbird on ubuntu 9.04 with a virus that deleete all the e-mail. I have already tried to clean it with clamav but hoplessly. can you suggest anything? <I have also reinstalled thunderbird and moved the e.mails, with them the virus contines to work | 07:39 |
| indus | james7: what went wrong with yours? | 07:39 |
| james7 | indus: is not just me.. a lot of people had the same problem.. | 07:39 |
| james7 | indus: you was lucky i guess | 07:39 |
| ActionParsnip | stevr1it: i'd delete the infected emails and restore clean ones from your backup | 07:39 |
| ActionParsnip | stevr1it: provided it is the actual emails which are infected | 07:40 |
| james7 | indus: it just didnt work.. and everything was running kind of slow. didnt feel the same. after i install it all from scratch.. it feels very different now | 07:40 |
| indus | james7: you need to file bugs as much as possible because this is the preferred method of upgrade and they aim to perfect it | 07:40 |

| gstratton | Hi, I've written an upstart script which runs on boot, but there seems to be a race condition with the network. Sometimes my script runs before the network is up. Is there an event which is fired when the DHCP lease is granted? | 07:42 |

| stevr1it | ActionParsnip, what do you mena? | 07:46 |
| indus | edem1: no 180 doesnt bring any speed improvement in 3d games maybe compiz works better | 07:46 |

| james7 | indus: yeah actually do you know the easier way to install ubuntu with the latest kernel? | 07:47 |
| indus | stevr1it: use avast antivirus it rocks :) | 07:47 |
| james7 | i want to do that | 07:47 |
| stevr1it | i did it,. it says thare is no virus | 07:47 |
| ircnickiuse | stevr1it, are you sure you are on linux? | 07:47 |
| owh | stevr1it: Uhm, are you aware that you would be one of the first people in the world to have one? | 07:47 |
| cmannn | i ment to remove an icon next to it and for some reson it removed the wrong one | 07:47 |
| stevr1it | yse ubuntu 9.04 | 07:48 |
| stevr1it | i have already made a lot of reports about it on the forum in italy | 07:48 |
| indus | stevr1it: then maybe its a false alarm.Have you tried avast? | 07:48 |
| owh | stevr1it: How do you know that it's a virus? | 07:48 |
| stevr1it | yes i have tried clamav and avast | 07:48 |
| indus | james7: no i dont | 07:48 |
| stevr1it | it was foudn by clamav at the beginning, | 07:48 |
| indus | clam av sucks avast is good | 07:48 |
| indus | i hope iam allowed to use the work *sucks* | 07:49 |
| owh | stevr1it: Thus far all you've given us is a claim for a linux virus. I'm sceptical. | 07:49 |
| stevr1it | everytime i open an e-mail it cojmes out to be a goggle message, if it si an attachent, i see only scriptsmts or empty e-mail | 07:49 |
| indus | cmannn: did you right click on panel and delete the icon? | 07:49 |
| stevr1it | i am running again clamtk but everytime on the account (googleone) i receve and e-mail it comes to be infected | 07:50 |
| indus | stevr1it: could you maybe give us an image etc | 07:50 |
| cmannn | ya | 07:50 |
| owh | stevr1it: What do you mean: "Goggle message" ? | 07:50 |
| stevr1it | yes wait second | 07:50 |
| indus | cmannn: what does typing nm-applet in terminal give u | 07:50 |
| stevr1it | yes | 07:50 |
| cmannn | an error messag | 07:50 |
| owh | cmannn: Perhaps explaining which error message would be helpful, we're good at guessing, not that good. | 07:51 |
| stevr1it | at the moment i am forwardin all the e-mai on another account in orther to avoid to loose e-mails | 07:51 |
| mistergibson | anyone know of a program to download and entire website (images, links set to local)? | 07:51 |
| cmannn | wait its a warning | 07:51 |
| owh | mistergibson: wget | 07:51 |
| indus | stevr1it: make sure you delete confidential date | 07:51 |
| indus | data | 07:51 |
| indus | cmannn: tell me the error massage | 07:51 |
| indus | oh god i only have 2 hands :D | 07:51 |
| indus | stevr1it: try clearing the cache in thunderbird | 07:51 |
| FloodBot2 | indus: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:51 |
| mistergibson | owh: images too? | 07:51 |
| stevr1it | how? | 07:51 |
| owh | mistergibson: Yup | 07:51 |

| cmannn | it says that applet_dbus_manager_start_service(): could not aquier the networkmanagersettings sevrivs as it is alredy tanken | 07:52 |
| indus | cmannn: ok wait 1 min | 07:53 |
| owh | cmannn: That indicates to me that it's already running. | 07:53 |
| kevin_ | mistergibson: wget | 07:53 |
| owh | kevin_: Yup, we covered that :) | 07:53 |
| cmannn | ok but thier is no icon | 07:53 |
| kevin_ | owh: wget is the ultimate | 07:53 |
| indus | cmannn: just go the sytem>admin>system monitor>processes and kill the nm aplet | 07:53 |
| kevin_ | and wput | 07:53 |
| owh | cmannn: Give us a screenshot of your desktop. | 07:53 |

| * owh wonders what a pastebin for images is :) | 07:54 | |
| cmannn | let me try the first on | 07:54 |
| rags | wht changes to amanda.conf ? I should chage the values of dump cycle and tapecycles to 1? | 07:54 |
| indus | cmannn: but frankly that icon is useless and i never needed it,it doesnt even blink | 07:54 |
| owh | rags: I suggest you ask that in #ubuntu-server. | 07:54 |
| leogazio | hi, is this fstab line correct? | 07:55 |
| leogazio | sshfs#root@10.0.1.2:/ /media/raiz_server-1 fuse defaults,user,auto 0 0 | 07:55 |
| owh | leogazio: What happens if you try to mount it? | 07:55 |
| leogazio | when I try to mount on shell it works, but on boot not | 07:56 |
| cmannn | i use alot of networks and it makes it easyer for me to switch between them | 07:56 |
| indus | owh: imagebin.org | 07:56 |
| leogazio | doesn't mount on boot at all | 07:56 |
| indus | !imagebin | 07:56 |
| ubottu | Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add and link it from the channel. | 07:56 |
| indus | :) thanks ubottu | 07:56 |
| owh | leogazio: Are you manually typing in the mount command, or are you referring to it by name to let fstab take care of it? | 07:56 |
| FAJ | Hi I need some help: how can i get my wifi to switch modules from ath9k to ndiswrapper? | 07:57 |
| indus | cmannn: so did u kill the process? | 07:57 |
| cmannn | ya now what do i do | 07:57 |
| indus | !imagebin > owh | 07:57 |
| ubottu | owh, please see my private message | 07:57 |

| leogazio | ya | 07:57 |
| FAJ | kevin_: how do you do that? i think i already did that, but it's still not working... | 07:58 |
| owh | indus: Yes, I got it the first time - I had sent cmannn off to get a screenshot and wondered idly where they'd put it up :) | 07:58 |
| indus | cmannn: now press alt-f2 and type nm-applet | 07:58 |
| leogazio | I want fstab doing that | 07:58 |

| indus | !imagebin > stevr1it | 07:59 |
| leogazio | I mount using sshfs like; sshfs root@ip /mount/point ......... | 07:59 |

| kevin_ | FAJ: yes blacklist.conf | 08:01 |
| pawan | hi | 08:01 |
| owh | reset_button: It's coming from the udev rules. | 08:01 |
| FAJ | kevin_: kk thanks... when i do that though, and then run sudo ndiswrapper -m and then -l it says that ath9k is still running it? | 08:01 |
| kevin_ | FAJ: logout / login for that blacklist to take effect | 08:01 |
| indus | FAJ: restart machine always | 08:01 |
| pawan | getting parse error at line one in dpkg | 08:01 |

| quizme | kevin_: /dev/sda2 * 31888 106532 599585962+ 7 HPFS/NTFS <--- that's where my windows is, so how does that translate into (hdX, Y) in grub ? | 08:04 |

| kevin_ | indus: you think it will matter if he has a bootflag on his windows partition still? | 08:13 |
| klem | hi | 08:13 |
| kevin_ | indus: i think grub is pretty good at figuring flags out. | 08:13 |
| kevin_ | indus: in theory his boot flag should be on his /boo | 08:13 |
| kevin_ | t | 08:13 |
| quizme | kevin_: I'm in windows now thanks to you! | 08:14 |
| jimlovell777 | Can I repair or install a linux kernel image from a live cd to a hard drive install? | 08:14 |
| kevin_ | quizme: ah rite on i guess it really doesnt mater that u have a bootflag set on windows partition instead of the /boot | 08:15 |
| quizme | kevin_ hopefully that last statement doesn't get me kicked from the channel lol | 08:15 |
| kevin_ | quizme: lmao ye for shure | 08:15 |
| quizme | kevin_ ya i was wondering about that * boot flag | 08:15 |
| kevin_ | quizme: i guess grub is talented at figureing out boot flags | 08:15 |
| kevin_ | quizme: if you want to fix the bootflag you dont have to u can just sudo fdisk /dev/sda then use command a | 08:16 |
| kevin_ | quizme: but doesnt really matter its just a * | 08:16 |
| kevin_ | If its working i would just leave it alone tbh | 08:16 |
| quizme | kevin_ yah, if it ain't broke don't fix it | 08:16 |
| kevin_ | wat i do recomend tho is sudo cp /boot/grub/menu.lst-backup lol | 08:17 |
| quizme | kevin_ i already did that. thanks again. gotta get back to work. ttyl | 08:17 |

| dingleberry | i must be using a crappy driver or something | 08:28 |
| thyri | sbach89...means can u connect to net? | 08:28 |
| kevin_ | sharetel: okay, now that is really strange, so your on the network and no net | 08:28 |
| thyri | on ubuntu | 08:29 |
| sharetel | indeed. the firefox gives the normal error which one sees when no network | 08:29 |

| cattellar | chiques, try this, go to ~/.gnome2/keyrings | 08:49 |
| xinita^ | cya indus | 08:49 |
| kevin_ | sharetel: okay well it recognizes your card as realtek but there should be a model number or something, so we know its not using the right drivers | 08:49 |
| cattellar | chiques, and delete everything inside there, when it ask you again to set up a keyring just say ok to make an empty one | 08:49 |
| chiques | cattellar, Maybe I typed too soon. I don't have a Administration->Keyring Manager | 08:50 |
| chiques | Thanks cattellar I'll try that | 08:50 |
| kevin_ | sharetel: what version of linux are you runin?? | 08:51 |
| sharetel | how can i determine if the drivers are not correct? and even if they need to be updated, theres no net for Synaptic | 08:51 |

| kevin_ | um.. i dono if 8.04 has the menu, but.. system ,, administration,, hardware drivers, or similar | 08:52 |
| jonim8or | anyone here using the starterbar desklet? | 08:52 |
| chiques | cattellar, I typed #~/.gnome2/keyrings but I get a "no such file or directory error" in the terminal. Am I missing something? | 08:52 |
| kevin_ | okay your goign to have to download the realtek drivers for the ethernet card, then install them on the machine | 08:52 |
| cattellar | chiques, wait | 08:52 |
| kevin_ | i can guide you threw but you will need like a usb dongle or something | 08:53 |
| cattellar | chiques, just go to your home folder, press control+h and search for gnome2 | 08:53 |
| kevin_ | 2.6.24-17-generic or 2.6.24-16-generic | 08:53 |
| kevin_ | sharetel: is your kernel one of these? | 08:53 |
| chiques | cattellar, OK | 08:53 |
| xinita^ | well do any of you have any idea of how to solve my problem? :D wifi not working despite of native driver and ndiswrapper (broadcom card) | 08:53 |
| jonim8or | I can't manage to create a working starter for nautilus in the starterbar desklet. The starters for eclipse, inkscape, firefox, etc. do work, but nautilus won't. | 08:54 |
| chiques | cattellar, OK, I see the folder. Simply delete the contents inside of "Keyrings"? | 08:54 |
| kevin_ | sharetel: run command unamre -mro | 08:55 |
| morfic | ah yeah, use eac, thanks | 08:55 |
| cattellar | chiques, yeah, then logout and login again, when it asks you to set up the keyring again, just click ok without typing any passworfd | 08:55 |

| kevin_ | sharetel: because lspci doesnt recognize your ethernet controller as anything but realtek its hard to say what model you have, so this is about the only thing on the net that you can actually do as far as i know so cross you fingers and hope, | 08:58 |
| kevin_ | sharetel: if this doesnt work the other option you have is to buy a usb > ethernet dongle that is linux compatible and that will solve alot of problems because Realteak is a beech when it comes to these things, sometimes workings sometimes not.. | 08:59 |

| indus | xinita^: hi | 09:18 |
| rww | niblets: what type of file system is on the external hard drive? ext3, ntfs, etc. | 09:18 |
| zcat[1] | Can someone help me; https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387065 is apparently not a bug, just an installation issue. I've removed (purged) evince, deleted the package and reinstalled it and I still have this 'installation issue' though | 09:18 |

| un|matrix | hi, is there a way to get rid of window decorations _only_ on maximized windows (without using compiz) ? | 09:18 |
| niblets | well, it started as ext2, since im using 8.10 kernel. same problem, so i reformatted it to ntfs, then fat 32 | 09:19 |
| zcat[1] | actually ignore tat, should be on +1 | 09:19 |

| parapanghelescu | simplexio > thing is a little bit complicated .....I installed 9.04 as a dualsys over WinXP; first I installed Boot, Swap, and / partitions; those are mounted by default ant are mounted automatically ; fstab is indicating those partitions; now, on 2 different drives I have 5-6 other partitions ( 1 in ext3 format, 3-4 in ntfs format ) all those partitions ubuntu is mounting only by request ( Places / Storage for example ) | 09:35 |
| simplexio | parapanghelescu: i think ubuntu uses normally some gnome + nautilus stuff thats does it automaticly. that method dosnt write stuff into fstab.. if i recall right | 09:35 |
| xinita^ | indus: ok :P | 09:35 |

| * fumbles looks in awe at teh masive fucking niclist... | 09:37 | |
| simplexio | parapanghelescu: if you have those ntfs partitions in fstab , they should be workin. assuming that those partition are defined by uuids ( /dev/sd? type definiotions can change after boot) | 09:37 |
| parapanghelescu | indus > nope, only swap, boot and / | 09:37 |
| dsdeiz | or you do 'sudo fdisk -l' and mount it manually.. just a suggestion :D | 09:37 |
| simplexio | parapanghelescu: throw fstab into pastebin | 09:37 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: then you need to add those drives to fstab manually | 09:37 |

| indus | xinita^: ok i hope you have a wifi network nearby | 09:38 |

| indus | parapanghelescu: i think the ntfs-3g software mounts ntfs as mountable drives | 10:38 |
| Alien_FX_Fiend | :P | 10:38 |
| bluesmoon | Alien_FX_Fiend: if you're on linux, then use pidgin or ayttm or kopete | 10:38 |
| Alien_FX_Fiend | i get the same error on pidgin for windows | 10:39 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: its normal behaviour i think , if you want to auto mount it, u need to add it to fstab manually | 10:39 |
| helena | pidgin works great . Only the lack of filesharing speed thou | 10:39 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: go to system> ntfs config tool | 10:39 |

| Mango1 | I want to use a Mac keyboard and I have a PC. Can I do that with ubuntu? And is it recommended, cuz I find Mac keyboards are comfortable | 10:40 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: did u see the ntfs tool? | 10:40 |
| Alien_FX_Fiend | ah i see | 10:40 |
| Spike1506 | Mango1, yes | 10:40 |
| harahauk | myself: whats wrong with vlc?:P | 10:40 |
| helena | well . brb . | 10:40 |
| Spike1506 | Mango1, you can set the keyboard layout via system --> preferences --> keyboard and then everything should work fine. | 10:40 |
| Mango1 | Spike1506: recomended? | 10:40 |
| parapanghelescu | indus > nope | 10:41 |
| parapanghelescu | no suct thing | 10:41 |
| parapanghelescu | such | 10:41 |
| Spike1506 | Mango1, i did say yes | 10:41 |
| myself | i have some bad .avis and it skips extra bad with them as opposed to dragon player or w/e | 10:41 |
| indus | parapanghelescu:in terminal type ntfs-3g | 10:41 |
| sharetel | hi I have Ubuntu 8.04 on a static ip 192.168.0.15. It can ping the gateway, but the internet doesnt show up | 10:41 |
| Mango1 | Spike1506: have you ever done that? | 10:41 |
| zagabar | helena: nope, only one card- | 10:41 |
| Cry__Baby | myself: relax pls | 10:42 |
| Spike1506 | Mango1, no, but a mac keyboard is supported so you can easily try it | 10:42 |
| myself | ARRRRRRRRRRRR | 10:42 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: ok nvm i dont know usage | 10:42 |
| parapanghelescu | indus > No device is specifyed | 10:42 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: but its installed adn u should find in under system admin someplace | 10:42 |
| Alien_FX_Fiend | helena left | 10:43 |
| Alien_FX_Fiend | she said she'll brb <3 | 10:43 |

| leagris | Mango1, already plugged an old green iMac keyboard and one button round mouse to a Ubuntu edgy installed laptop. | 10:43 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: yeah please check | 10:43 |
| sirMajid | hi is anybody familiar with telnet here? | 10:44 |
| arand | helena: "lspci -k -s 00:02.0" should give you the name(s) of the kernel modules/drivers in use for the intel card. Then you should be able to add a line "blacklist *" (where * is the name of the module(s)) to the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist ... | 10:44 |
| joaopinto | !anybody | sirMajid | 10:44 |
| ubottu | sirMajid: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 10:44 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: no its not a menu option so nvm | 10:44 |
| leagris | Mango1, ha full success in using the mac input devices with ubuntu, despite the one button only mouse. | 10:44 |
| sirMajid | ok:D | 10:44 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: ill give u the ntfs syntax so u can auto mount it | 10:44 |
| stevr1it | here si the virus change all my e-mail content: http://imagebin.org/52512 | 10:45 |
| Mango1 | leagris: do you recommend Mac keyboard? | 10:45 |
| leagris | Mango1, not especially. Use one if you have one or if you are acustomized to using one better than the regular pc layout. | 10:45 |
| Mango1 | leagris: comfortable? I haven't tired any, but seems very comfortable. Especially the ones before the current ones | 10:45 |
| sirMajid | I think my isp is blocking telnet connections. I want to know how is that possible. do they just block a port? | 10:46 |
| parapanghelescu | indus > OK that;s what i'm asking for; then I can compare-it with the fstab default and see exactly ... | 10:46 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, it is possible, but very unlikely, anyway you should not use telnet, you should use ssh | 10:46 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: well. how? does it work like telnet? | 10:46 |
| indus | stevr1it: what has changed | 10:47 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, yes, but it uses encryption, unlike telnet | 10:47 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: for example, can I connect to port 80 of a server and make a request? | 10:47 |
| leagris | Mango1, you can even run ubuntu on full Mac hardware. If you dont want to afford a Macox licence for outdated hardware. Ubuntu is a good choice to keep a modern system up. | 10:47 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, port 80 is not related to telnet, you can use telnet to check connectivity to any tcp port, but that is not related | 10:47 |
| joaopinto | I was talking about the protocol, not about the tool | 10:48 |
| joaopinto | if you can't connect to port 80, then your problem is related to http, your ISP blokcing http servers, not telnet | 10:48 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: what do u mean? I know that telnet can connect to any port and send data and wait for response | 10:48 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: isn't it? | 10:48 |
| joaopinto | if you are behind a router, you need to setup a forward rule on it | 10:48 |
| parapanghelescu | indus > just do not forget that I have another partition which is ext3 ...and also not mounted by 9.04 by default | 10:48 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: how many hard drives do u have? | 10:49 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, yes, but that is just a tool, ISP can't block the use of a tool, they can block connectivity to specific ports | 10:49 |
| stevr1it | indus, the virus changes all the text inside the mail | 10:49 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: how can I use ssh as an alternative? the servers which i'm tryin to request are windows server 2003 | 10:49 |
| parapanghelescu | indus > 3 drives, Samsung HD103UJ | 10:49 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, grrr, for connectivity checking you use telnet | 10:50 |
| try2free | hi, please help to setting shorewall for squid and ltsp server on same machine. transparent? intercept? | 10:50 |
| indus | stevr1it: i cant see where | 10:50 |
| dingleberry | glxinfo shows Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". | 10:50 |
| dingleberry | Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig | 10:50 |
| stevr1it | in the mail text there is a google message l http://imagebin.org/52512 | 10:51 |
| dingleberry | glxgears shows Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". | 10:51 |
| dingleberry | Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual | 10:51 |
| stevr1it | ande the real mail has an attachemnt | 10:51 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: well actually that's my question. for example I try to connect to port 80 on google.com and how can the block port 80 of google.com | 10:51 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: while I'm easily browsing by firefox | 10:51 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, can you ping www.google.com in the first place ? | 10:51 |
| zeno_ | hi, i rebooted into windows, then back and now sound isnt playing (was in vista). No errors but no sount emitting. nothings muted, lsof | grep alsa just returns the mixer, help? | 10:52 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: it responds | 10:52 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: post sudo blkid and sudo fdisk -l | 10:52 |
| zagabar | I have an ATI Radeon mobility X600, and when trying to boot, my screen gets stuck on a multi coloured distorted ubuntu logo. This happens just before the login prompt is to be shown. Before that, I can see the ubuntu logo load. This didn't happen some days ago, then it worked just fine. I have activated the proprietary driver quite recently. To fix this I have tried to go into recovery mode and change the driver in xorg.conf. It was s | 10:52 |
| Syntux | hi | 10:52 |
| gharz | guys, does compiz fusion work with xubuntu? | 10:52 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: also /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 | 10:52 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, when you telnet www.google.com 80 , do you get a connection refused ? or another error ? | 10:52 |
| NIdYa | ria_maniez@rocketmail.co.id | 10:52 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: for ntfs automount | 10:53 |
| stevr1it | indus, all the e-mail i ma recevieng are with the same google text, and it is already 2 months | 10:53 |
| mikai | hi. create a windows seven usb key from linux it's possible ? | 10:53 |
| zeno_ | mikai: i dont think u CAN have a win7usb key | 10:53 |
| koshari | mikai i doubt it, you generally need syslinux | 10:53 |
| Syntux | can someone tell me if Python is a good language??? | 10:53 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: no, my problem is that it gives no answer when I type my request | 10:53 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: sorry bad command | 10:54 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: I type GET / HTTP/1.0 and it gives no answer | 10:54 |
| koshari | Syntux thats pretty subjective | 10:54 |
| indus | parapanghelescu: also /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 ntfs defaults 0 0 | 10:54 |
| joaopinto | Syntux, it depends on your definition of a good language, python is used by several applications that you can find on Ubuntu | 10:54 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, you need to sende it extra enters | 10:54 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: I've done that | 10:55 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: still no answer | 10:55 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, anyway, you are not being blocked, if it were, you would not connect, so now is just your lack of understanding of the HTTP protocol | 10:55 |
| Syntux | im already learning C++, should i stick with it for a while? | 10:55 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, wget -S www.google.com | 10:55 |
| joaopinto | Syntux, C++ is a good language to learn OOP concepts | 10:55 |
| joaopinto | but python is easier :P | 10:56 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: it returned response header well | 10:56 |
| Syntux | but a lot of developers complain about bugs :p | 10:56 |
| joaopinto | sirMajid, so, there is no network/system problem, and you dont know understand the HTTP protocol, please ask on a better place, like #networking | 10:57 |
| root | hieeeeeeeeeee | 10:57 |
| joaopinto | Syntux, who ? bugs on what ? | 10:57 |
| === root is now known as Guest87289 | ||
| parapanghelescu | indus > check this pls http://paste.ubuntu.com/196202/ | 10:57 |
| Syntux | C++ programms | 10:57 |
| lera_zed | joaopinto: c++ and OOP ? heh, brave suggestion | 10:57 |
| sirMajid | joaopinto: ok tnx for ur help | 10:57 |
| === ogra__ is now known as ogra | ||
| joaopinto | Syntux, bugs are more related to the developer, than to the language used :) | 10:58 |
| Syntux | oh, k then ill struggle with C++ a bit. | 10:59 |
| simplexio | ajhtiredwolf: well other option is that you have some bad software, like broen glibc or similiar. still my best quess is overheating cpu/memory or something is little brokne | 10:59 |
| hfpvv5 | where can i find drivers for ubuntu 8.10 - device is DLINK - DWA-140 | 10:59 |
| hfpvv5 | it is a wireless dongle | 10:59 |
| dabukalam | HEELP. i just shrunk my windows partition and added the space to a storage partition i have set up (using gparted live), and although i can still see all the files on the partitions, grub won't boot into windows. it hangs with "Starting up..." | 11:00 |
| dabukalam | i've got both fdisk -l and menu.lst in here: http://paste.linuxassist.net/214899 | 11:00 |
| joaopinto | hfpvv5, the drivers are usually available natively from the kernel, you will need to check if that device is supported on the kernel version available on ubuntu 8.10 | 11:00 |
| joaopinto | I believe I have the same dongle working, but on Jaunty | 11:01 |
| ko | I have a 5 button mouse. Anyone know how I would configure the additional buttons to page up and page down in Firefox? | 11:01 |
| ajhtiredwolf | simplexio, no i fixed the problem, sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin | 11:01 |
| rski | hfpvv5: i searched a bit and found that it works in 9.04 without issues if you belive the report https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsDlink | 11:01 |
| joaopinto | it does work, I am using it | 11:02 |
| dabukalam | @ko use btnx | 11:02 |
| mib_cnzdhlkk | hi, quick ? before i install ubuntu, will all my programs such as photoshop etc be compatible? | 11:02 |

| parapanghelescu | can someone tell me the parameter sintax for the ping command in order to send only 4 packets pls ??? | 11:02 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about btnx | 11:02 |
| zeno_ | hi, i rebooted into windows, then back and now sound isnt playing (was in vista). No errors but no sount emitting. nothings muted, lsof | grep alsa just returns the mixer, help? | 11:02 |
| rski | mib_cnzdhlkk: no | 11:03 |
| rski | mib_cnzdhlkk: but you can run them anyway | 11:03 |
| ko | dabukalam: I'll check it out. Thanks. | 11:03 |
| joaopinto | mib_cnzdhlkk, no, there are some windows apps which can run using wine, but not all | 11:03 |
| joaopinto | !wine ! mib_cnzdhlkk | 11:04 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 11:04 |
| zeno_ | mib_cnzdhlkk: theres usually othre programs to use, like gimp vs photoshop | 11:04 |
| joaopinto | !wine | mib_cnzdhlkk | 11:04 |
| ubottu | mib_cnzdhlkk: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 11:04 |
| mib_cnzdhlkk | cool, thx | 11:04 |
| zeno_ | mib_cnzdhlkk: you can also run a vm like virtualbox | 11:04 |
| Jomyoot | Anyone tried apt-build? | 11:05 |
| dabukalam | HEELP. i just shrunk my windows partition and added the space to a storage partition i have set up (using gparted live), and although i can still see all the files on the partitions, grub won't boot into windows. it hangs with "Starting up..." | 11:05 |
| Jomyoot | Does ubuntu compiles packages with O2 ? | 11:05 |
| dabukalam | i've got both fdisk -l and menu.lst in here: http://paste.linuxassist.net/214899 | 11:05 |
| rski | Jomyoot: i think it varies | 11:05 |
| joaopinto | Jomyoot, better ask on #ubuntu-motu | 11:05 |
| jado | hi, how can i sync my clock with ntpdate ? | 11:05 |
| parapanghelescu | indus > gotta go > i'll be back in 2 hours > | 11:05 |
| joaopinto | jado, sudo ntpdate-debian | 11:06 |
| jado | "no server suitable for synchronization found" | 11:06 |
| Jomyoot | What is motu? | 11:06 |
| joaopinto | !motu | 11:07 |
| ubottu | motu is short for Masters of the Universe. The brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU | 11:07 |

| Syntux | wtf? | 11:08 |
| joaopinto | gharz, Add/Remove programas ? if you have such an action on xubuntu | 11:08 |
| Syntux | sry | 11:08 |
| jado | joaopinto: so do you know how i can do ? | 11:08 |
| gharz | ok | 11:08 |
| gharz | thanks | 11:08 |
| Jomyoot | !apt-build | 11:09 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-build | 11:09 |
| Jomyoot | !debian | 11:09 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 11:09 |

| joaopinto | assuming you can reach the ntp server | 11:09 |
| joaopinto | Syntux, this channel is not for help with C++, please look for the appropriate channel, do a /list here in freenode | 11:10 |
| Syntux | ok sorry | 11:10 |

| hfpvv5 | joaopinto: can you elaborate on wireless dongle working on ubuntu? dlink dongle | 11:12 |
| hfpvv5 | i see a interface ra0 with same macid | 11:12 |
| hfpvv5 | dhcpclient dont work on it | 11:13 |
| joaopinto | hfpvv5, the drivers are not available externally, they are provided on the system (kernel), and that dongle is supported on Ubuntu 9.04 | 11:13 |
| jeremy_ | is there a channel devoted to questions about software development | 11:14 |
| B3rz3rk3r | #software | 11:14 |
| hfpvv5 | joaopinto: i use 8.10 what should i do now | 11:14 |
| joaopinto | hfpvv5, upgrade :) | 11:14 |
| hfpvv5 | can i upgrade a live system? | 11:15 |
| hfpvv5 | over the net | 11:15 |
| hfpvv5 | and work on it as well | 11:15 |
| joaopinto | you can, but you shouldn't because mose packages will be upgraded, packages which you are using | 11:15 |
| joaopinto | and, an upgrade is something that you need to plan for | 11:16 |
| joaopinto | not something you want to do in the middle of a work | 11:16 |
| joaopinto | because you may get other problems related to the upgrade | 11:16 |
| hfpvv5 | is there any other solution | 11:16 |

| mbn_181 | joaopinto: strange its absent | 11:27 |
| stepanstas | I cannot see one of my partitions on the "Places" list. I need to recover those files. Any ideas? | 11:27 |
| joaopinto | LAMEGUEST, your selection seems fine, after the partition selection, there is a summary screen | 11:28 |
| LAMEGUEST | okay | 11:28 |
| joaopinto | which lists what the installer is goind to perform | 11:28 |
| joaopinto | you just need to check that it is goind to add new partitions, and not touch the current one | 11:28 |
| joaopinto | if you have used custom partition, and you didn't deleted the ntfs explicitely, you are safe | 11:28 |
| indus | damn | 11:28 |
| joaopinto | LAMEGUEST, anyway, the general rule is, if you do partition changes, backup first | 11:29 |
| mbn_181 | joaopinto: It is called "File browser" under the menu -> Sys tools | 11:29 |
| joaopinto | mbn_181, ok, but the app name is nautilus ;) | 11:29 |
| helena | Arand . Svensk =? | 11:29 |
| mbn_181 | joaopinto: Yes, I wonder why Ubuntu mimicked it | 11:29 |
| LAMEGUEST | it seems fine and dandy | 11:30 |
| joaopinto | mbn_181, there has been some debate about some apps naming, they decided to replace some app names with action names instead | 11:30 |
| LAMEGUEST | i'll just do it throwing caution to the wind | 11:30 |
| LAMEGUEST | thanks joaopinto | 11:30 |
| joaopinto | LAMEGUEST, good luck :) | 11:30 |
| zeno_ | hi im getting sound output in movie player but NOT mplayer or firefox | 11:31 |
| bening | still confius installing tar.gz | 11:32 |
| stepanstas | I cannot see a corrupt partition which i need to recover files from. I was able to see the partition running on a Kubuntu live cd but not on the Ubuntu live cd. Any way to see that partition? | 11:32 |
| zeno_ | hi im getting sound output in movie player but NOT mplayer or firefox, no errors just not hearing anything | 11:32 |
| indus_ | zeno_: maybe need to set sound output individually in the applications | 11:33 |
| koshari | you can open nautilus with Go by folder name | 11:33 |
| joaopinto | stepanstas, kubuntu and ubuntu CDs use the same kernel, so whatever is your problem, it is not related to the cd type | 11:34 |
| helena | going crazy soon . Anyone who can help me with my little problem =? | 11:34 |
| helena | pm me | 11:34 |
| zeno_ | indus_: for firefox? and no its not for amarok either | 11:34 |
| indus_ | helena: yes tell me | 11:34 |
| joaopinto | stepanstas, did yoy try from the terminal: sudo fdisk -l ? | 11:35 |
| lucian | hello people | 11:35 |
| joaopinto | helena, you already got instructions here how to blacklist the modules | 11:35 |
| indus_ | zeno_: you mean when playing sound in firefox online videos | 11:35 |
| lucian | how do i remove some app from startup? | 11:35 |
| stepanstas | joaopinto: I know. I don't care about which cd. But when i tried to recover to files with Kubuntu it couldnt open anything. I thought Ubuntu might but Ubuntu doesnt show anything at all. | 11:35 |
| helena | yes . but how do i type it correcly =? | 11:36 |
| koshari | lucian depends where its being called from | 11:36 |
| helena | i need step to step guide ;) | 11:36 |
| joaopinto | stepanstas, if your partition is corrupted, the file manager will make no difference | 11:36 |
| indus_ | lucian: go to system>preferences>startup apps | 11:36 |
| lucian | i want to remove Firefox and AVN | 11:36 |
| lucian | from start up | 11:36 |
| joaopinto | helena, did you already identified the modules that you need to blacklist ? | 11:36 |
| lucian | and put compiz on startup | 11:36 |

Before that, I can see the ubuntu logo load. This didn't happen some days ago, then it worked just fine. I have activated the proprietary driver quite recently. To fix this I have tried to go into recovery mode and change the driver in xorg.conf. It was se | 11:37 |

| joaopinto | stepanstas, can you list the partition with fdisk -l ? | 11:37 |

| Cry__Baby | whenever I choose to "Automatical Login", Ubuntu stops at a black screen and doesn't login to Gnome. Any ideas anyone pls? | 11:38 |
| zeno_ | its not jsut that though, its anything but movie player or sound tester | 11:38 |
| rski | zagabar: your message ends in " It was se." | 11:38 |
| indus_ | zeno_: maybe try gstreamer-properties and set audio output to auto | 11:38 |
| joaopinto | Cry__Baby, I believe there was some bug reported about that | 11:38 |
| rski | zagabar: your message in this channel | 11:38 |
| Cry__Baby | joaopinto: yes. must be.. so what do I do? nothing? | 11:39 |
| joaopinto | Cry__Baby, search for it on launchpad, they could be a workaround | 11:39 |
| joaopinto | there | 11:39 |
| Cry__Baby | whats launchpad? | 11:39 |

| mossmon | i have some trouble with wolfenstein enemy territory | 11:41 |
| joaopinto | zagabar, sudo apt-get remove xorg-driver-fglrx | 11:41 |
| stepanstas | joaopinto: I dont think any of them should have been NTFS. My computer should consist of the following. One full ubuntu install with all the files i want to recover. One Kubuntu install with nothing on it, its worthless install. Then the live cd. | 11:42 |
| joaopinto | stepanstas, someone installed an ntfs on that disk, which probably override an existing linux partition ? | 11:42 |
| marcel | i want to show some top info on my desktop, what software to use for this? is there somehing like xsysinfo that outputs on my desktop? | 11:43 |
| zelhar | Hello | 11:43 |
| patrik | Hi, I have a image file which is a copy of an entire disk (bootable), and I need to extract it's contents somehow without booting it. How can I do that? | 11:43 |
| joaopinto | marcel, try conky | 11:43 |
| zeno_ | indus_: its on hda nvidia (alsa mixer), sound prefrences are on hda nvidia ad198x Digital (alsa) but i dont see that option | 11:43 |
| joaopinto | marcel, or gdesklets | 11:43 |
| marcel | joaopinto, ok thanks | 11:43 |
| zeno_ | sound pref are working | 11:43 |
| joaopinto | patrik, how was the image file created ? what type of image is it ? | 11:44 |
| koshari | is it an iso? | 11:44 |
| mossmon | when i try to open enemy territory it loads something for a second on terminal and says something about that it does not have enough memory | 11:44 |
| zelhar | I installed ATI's propriety driver (frlrx) for my HD3650, and now power manager can't turn off my screen, instaed it just blanks it. | 11:44 |
| stepanstas | joaopinto: I was out of country, so im not surprised. But i was still able to see the partition on the Kubuntu live cd. I was able to see all the files, just not open them. They should still all be there, right? | 11:44 |
| zagabar | rski: Weird... I see the whole message... :S | 11:44 |
| zagabar | joaopinto: Okay, trying that. | 11:44 |
| zelhar | do you know this bug ? where can I file it or find a fix ? | 11:44 |
| marcel | how do i "embed" conky on my desktop wallpaper? | 11:44 |
| joaopinto | stepanstas, you could try to do a force mount of the ntfs partion as ext3, assuming it was ext3 | 11:44 |
| marcel | i want the output on my desktop, not in a window | 11:45 |
| joaopinto | but it will probably fail, because the partition was probably formatted/installed | 11:45 |
| patrik | joaopinto: It's a bootable USB-flash image. I suspect it's a straight copy of a hd (dd if=/dev/sda of=image.img) | 11:45 |
| bening | i found error in installing the tar.gz package. any help? | 11:45 |

| mossmon | yes | 11:46 |
| patrik | joaopinto: I know it's ext3, but I seems there are several partitions in the image | 11:46 |

| dsabecky | ggg, It will most likely be a .tar.gz file. | 12:02 |

| ikonia | rameshwo: otherwise follow the instructions ubottu just sent through | 12:45 |
| Ademan | ah, thanks ikonia, with than in mind, if I wanted to schedule some tasks which may or may not be recurring, am i best off using cron jobs? or is there anything that's preferred? | 12:45 |
| indus_ | ikonia: but he can upgrade from gnome to xfce too? | 12:45 |
| ikonia | Ademan: cron is the way to go | 12:45 |
| rameshwo | indus_: yes that would be good too.. | 12:45 |
| JayX | ikonia, hey good day, qustion is it possible to tripple boot a laptop with Win 7, Win XP and Ubuntu? | 12:45 |
| ikonia | indus_: that's just a desktop | 12:45 |
| indus_ | Mash: which version of ubuntu | 12:45 |
| ikonia | JayX: yes | 12:45 |
| midkniht | anyone actually ran the ubuntu server edition on a production server? | 12:45 |
| ikonia | midkniht: yes | 12:45 |
| Ademan | thanks ikonia, i never bothered to learn cron, so here goes haha | 12:46 |
| midkniht | everyone i know uses debian | 12:46 |
| indus_ | ikonia: i mean its xubuntu-desktop with a whole lot of upgrades, its possible? | 12:46 |
| rameshwo | indus_: i actually wanted X desktop so i got 9.04 Xubuntu from friend.. | 12:46 |
| midkniht | whats beneficial in ubuntu server? | 12:46 |
| Ademan | i would assume launchpad is all ubuntu machines | 12:46 |
| ikonia | indus_: yes | 12:46 |
| ikonia | midkniht: personal prefernce, thats it | 12:46 |
| midkniht | ok | 12:46 |
| indus_ | rameshwo: there is no such thing as X desktop | 12:46 |
| JayX | ikonia, sweet, ok well last time I dual booted Ubuntu & Win XP I had a little issue with my boot loader ( Ubuntu was my defualt OS / after 30 seconds ubunto would load) how do i change that if i try a tripple boot? | 12:46 |
| indus_ | ikonia: today there was a guy trying to upgrade from cd,but he kept getting gpg errors | 12:47 |
| rameshwo | idn: Xfce // is it correct ? | 12:47 |
| zeno | indus_: icewm comes close =p | 12:47 |
| ikonia | JayX: it's all stored in the /boot/grub/menu.lst file on your ubuntu machine, easy to change | 12:47 |
| ikonia | indus_: needs to be the alternetive CD and a valid CD | 12:47 |
| indus_ | zeno: really? Its called X desktop? | 12:47 |
| indus_ | ikonia: it was alternate cd and what does a valid cd mean? | 12:47 |
| ikonia | indus_: no problems/errors with it | 12:47 |
| zeno | well no but basically no extras from x | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | indus_: then add the key, then upgrade | 12:47 |
| Psykopaten | join /FiSH | 12:47 |
| Mash | got anymore idea indus_ ? | 12:48 |
| ikonia | indus_: you also have to import the gpg keys as the instructions ubottu sent suggest | 12:48 |
| indus_ | ActionParsnip: how to add the key yes yes ? | 12:48 |
| JayX | ikonia ah ok well any suggestions for me, im gooing to start the process in a few, got a laptop with 320GB, gonna format the hole thing and partition it into 3 (WinXP, Win7, Ubuntu) which OS should I install forst / last? I would like XP my dafualt/first option, then Ubuntu, then Win 7 | 12:48 |
| ikonia | indus_: follow the instructions ubottu sent through | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | indus_: you'll get a little sting of characters in the error | 12:48 |
| ikonia | JayX: install the 2 windows OS's first - then ubuntu | 12:48 |
| indus_ | ActionParsnip: ok go on | 12:48 |
| ikonia | JayX: it will be easy | 12:48 |

| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 12:49 |

| JayX | ikonia ok thanks! wil start backing up all my stuff, i should be back in this chatroom in about6-7 hours :D hope you'll be arround | 12:49 |
| ActionParsnip | indus_: it wont work if you use the whole string, only the last 8 | 12:49 |
| indus_ | ActionParsnip: aah thanks a lot but you know they should make it easier | 12:49 |
| rameshwo | indus_: so what's my solution ? i need alternative cd ? | 12:50 |
| Ademan | JayX: http://web.telia.com/~u88005282/sum/index.html provides a GUI for it, and I've used it successfully, but it's one of those "use at your own risk" applications, so I'd back up your menu.lst beforehand, at worst you'll have to boot with a liveCD and restore your old menu.lst | 12:50 |
| ActionParsnip | indus_: they do, they have keys online. I just have a script to import keys when i need em | 12:50 |
| Ademan | JayX: ah, I'm behind in your conversation haha, but for future reference that link ("startup manager") provides a GUI for modifying /boot/grub/menu.lst :-) | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | indus_: i do a lot of stuff old skool, so it seems harder to the less experienced (no offence) | 12:51 |
| indus_ | ActionParsnip: thanks a million/ also do u know where they store it online? | 12:51 |
| indus_ | ActionParsnip: i remember using that code once for medibuntu | 12:51 |

| kk_ubuntu3 | hello, can some one tell me how can I setup a nework of computers using ubuntu to share files like the way it is done in windows with my networkplaces? I amn I should be able to share my ~/public folder. | 13:43 |
| remoteCTRL | shareenergy: you mean to let it boot into init 3 instead of init 5? | 13:43 |
| shareenergy | is it possible to change the init level? on boot? | 13:43 |
| ikonia | remoteCTRL: ubuntu boots to init 2 by default | 13:43 |
| ikonia | shareenergy: boot into single user mode and remove/disable the script | 13:43 |
| parapanghelescu | remoteCTRL > thanks for your answer ...I checked the man .....I only wasn't aware that I have to add 4 after -c parameter .....I made -c4 and -4 and didn't worked > thant's why my question > thanks anyway | 13:44 |

| Jere` | Hello, how could I permanently edit the maximum number of files open limit? Currently I'm setting it using ulimit -n but it isn't permanent. | 13:44 |
| remoteCTRL | ikonia: wasnt that rcS? | 13:44 |
| ikonia | shareenergy: you can - boot into recovery mode from the grub prompt | 13:44 |
| kuopeng | hello | 13:44 |
| ikonia | remoteCTRL: no | 13:44 |
| remoteCTRL | parapanghelescu: np man:) | 13:44 |
| remoteCTRL | ikonia: whats the rcS for then? | 13:44 |
| ikonia | remoteCTRL: apologies that looked like a "2" not an "S" to me | 13:44 |
| shareenergy | ikonia: when I choose recovery mode it hangs also | 13:44 |
| remoteCTRL | ikonia: :) | 13:45 |
| ikonia | shareenergy: so if you're script is in run level 2 - than the problem is not your script | 13:45 |
| ikonia | shareenergy: or you confifugred it wrong | 13:45 |
| shareenergy | it was working before this script | 13:45 |
| ikonia | shareenergy: boot from a cd - mount your disk and remove the script | 13:45 |
| shareenergy | so is there any way to change the init level on grub? | 13:45 |
| ikonia | shareenergy: if your using recovery shell - you're already changing the init level - so that won't work, boot from cd | 13:46 |
| shareenergy | like kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-8-386 root=/dev/hda2 ro quiet splash init 1 | 13:46 |
| ikonia | shareenergy: recoevery mode is init 1 | 13:46 |
| ikonia | shareenergy: so that won't work according to your statment | 13:46 |
| remoteCTRL | shareenergy: that is actually not how that works | 13:46 |
| remoteCTRL | shareenergy: you can change to init 1 manually by entereing sudo init 1 into command prompt | 13:46 |
| shareenergy | so how can i mount the partition so that i can delete my script from /etc/rc2.d ? | 13:47 |
| ikonia | shareenergy: boot from a cdrom and mount the disk | 13:47 |
| shareenergy | I dont have a cd on the remote system | 13:47 |
| remoteCTRL | shareenergy: or you can boot into a command prompt with rro privilileges by exchanging the /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-8-386 directive through init=/bin/bash | 13:47 |
| remoteCTRL | root not rro | 13:47 |
| remoteCTRL | shareenergy: oops remote... thats gonna be a hard one then... | 13:48 |
| shareenergy | remoteCTRL: cool let me try | 13:48 |
| shareenergy | remoteCTRL: with iLOM is easy :) | 13:48 |
| remoteCTRL | shareenergy: how will you edit the boot parameter on a remote machine? | 13:48 |
| remoteCTRL | shareenergy: whats that? | 13:48 |
| remoteCTRL | shareenergy: still there? i just told you rubbish | 13:50 |
| remoteCTRL | shareenergy: dont replace anything but APPEND the init=/bin/bash switch to the kernels boot line | 13:50 |

| arber4444 | no i really delete the partion when i have installed ubuntu that mean i have only one partion now and that is c partion | 13:56 |
| ziroday | duskiv: mmm personally I've never had much luck with two monitors on the same graphics cards. One card for one monitor might be better | 13:56 |
| remoteCTRL | arber4444: meaning if you have intalled windows after linux your master boot record is overwritten but everything else is still there, you can fix that with supergrub disk | 13:56 |
| ziroday | Jomyoot: you didn't add the GPG key for that PPA | 13:56 |
| Jomyoot | this is a new install | 13:57 |
| remoteCTRL | arber4444: well c partition doesnt sound like linux to me at all? | 13:57 |
| arber4444 | where can i get subur grub | 13:57 |
| remoteCTRL | hehe | 13:57 |
| duskiv | ziroday: well right now it's working 2x 6200 4 screens, the only thing that wasn't working was autodetection... i needed to specify the busIDs on my own | 13:57 |
| ziroday | Jomyoot: have you modified /etc/apt/sources.list or gone into software sources? | 13:57 |
| remoteCTRL | arber4444: just download and burn it | 13:57 |

| boscop | how can I access my usb stick from within a terminal? | 14:00 |
| ziroday | _Fauchi95_: not much as long as you trust those archive admins | 14:00 |
| ziroday | boscop: where did you mount it? | 14:01 |
| ziroday | _Fauchi95_: in fact a script is run on external mirrors to check the packages are the same as the ones on the main mirror. Its very safe | 14:01 |
| boscop | ziroday, it's in the usb-slot and I want to save my files on it because after an interrupted apt-get dist-upgrade it starts only in terminal mode | 14:02 |
| arber4444 | hello i have a hdd but acsidentally i deletet d partion how can i rebuild that partion without install ubuntu again | 14:02 |
| jerroome | hello | 14:02 |
| ziroday | boscop: ookay. Well first you need to mount the thumbdrive by doing mount /dev/<thumbdrive> /path/to/mount/point | 14:03 |
| Dr_Willis | boscop: use the mount command to see where its mounted to (or to mount it) then just access its mountpoint same as you would any other directory. | 14:03 |
| dobre_zuo | what is %u in bash? | 14:03 |
| _Fauchi95_ | ziroday, yes i know but theoretical the admin of the mirror can put harmful code into the packages, or? | 14:03 |
| ziroday | _Fauchi95_: no, as the script checks to make sure all the packages are the same as on the main server | 14:04 |
| ziroday | dobre_zuo: user? | 14:04 |
| _Fauchi95_ | ziroday, a script on the mirror or on the computer? | 14:04 |
| boscop | ziroday, what is thumbdrive? | 14:04 |
| ziroday | boscop: you can find that by doing sudo fdisk -l and looking for the right entry | 14:05 |

(please, excuse my english.. I am from czech republic)) | 14:07 |
| janhaj | pulseaudio is only sound mixer or no? | 14:07 |
| Dr_Willis | ubottu > PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 14:07 |

| xrekcilF | Hi i have a problem whit ubuntu 9.04 jaunty, the problem comes when i try to watch or play flash things in my browser the picture scrambles in the middle of the screen , it all works perfectly the flash things but just visually it scrambles i have no idea what is the problem. | 14:08 |
| racquad | hi there. I'm installing Ubuntu 9.04 on a pendrive, but the disk access is quite slow. Any tip to improve speed? | 14:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Im not sure i understand why you are even doing this weird stuff. :) Sounds like you are just asking for more problems then you will solve. | 14:09 |
| rski | racquad: get a faster pendrive | 14:09 |
| janhaj | but i want have a maximal clean system.. | 14:09 |
| Dr_Willis | janhaj: i imagine you are doing a lot of busy work for very little gain. | 14:09 |
| racquad | rski, the pendrive is new | 14:10 |
| boscop | ziroday, sudo fdisk -l shows path /dev/sda for the usb stick and it can't be found with mount | 14:10 |
| racquad | is a kingstone 8 gb | 14:10 |
| Dr_Willis | boscop: most likely you need to mount /dev/sda1 not /dev/sda | 14:10 |
| ziroday | boscop: try do sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/disk | 14:10 |
| ctmjr | janhaj, you might consider oss4 for your sound | 14:10 |
| Dr_Willis | racquad: the 'unetbootin' tool can do a 'live cd' insall to a flash drive and makeit bootable.. it works very well.. and is decently fast. | 14:10 |
| janhaj | <Dr_Willis> it is able.. but i am learning.. :) | 14:10 |

| racquad | Dr_Willis, I will try it. I'm trying the traditional method. boot from a CD and install Ubuntu in the pendrive, as it was a regular HDD | 14:11 |
| ziroday | xrekcilF: only for flash videos? | 14:11 |
| janhaj | ctmjr: but alsa is necessary or no? | 14:12 |
| xrekcilF | ziroday: yes only for flash | 14:12 |
| ziroday | xrekcilF: can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log right after it does that | 14:12 |
| ziroday | xrekcilF: also when closing firefox, does the distortion disappear? | 14:12 |
| xrekcilF | ziroday: what do you mean right after it does, it only is scrambled on the browser part where i amplaying | 14:12 |

| ctmjr | janhaj, no oss4 it will replace alsa | 14:13 |

| xrekcilF | ziroday: i know what pastebin is how i get the output of xorg? :D | 14:14 |
| ctmjr | janhaj, that i do not know you might have to change the audio settings in skype | 14:14 |
| Dr_Willis | racquad: i dont do a 'normal' install to my pendrives.. i use the 'live -cd to pendrive' method.. that way i can put the pendrive in other machines. | 14:15 |
| amundsen | hi | 14:15 |
| ziroday | xrekcilF: I just need the log file in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, you can just open it in a text editor and copy it across to pastebin | 14:15 |
| Dr_Willis | racquad: the tradatinal install.. can be quirky | 14:15 |
| xrekcilF | ziroday: thats what im asking HOW to open it :d | 14:15 |
| amundsen | my xorg.conf file is empty in j.j | 14:15 |
| amundsen | any idea? | 14:15 |
| ziroday | xrekcilF: with any text editor. e.g. gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 14:15 |
| Dr_Willis | amundsen: thats sort of normal :) with the new X versions. | 14:15 |

| amundsen | Dr_Willis: i'd like to change the monitor's resolution to a higher one | 14:17 |
| ctmjr | janhaj, well then have your friend and teacher fix alsa for you | 14:17 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: I use gedit over sftp / ftp all the time | 14:17 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, any clue why i'm getting "invalid reply" with nautilus and gedit... | 14:17 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: are you sure you've created the connection to your server properly? | 14:17 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, half the time? can i set a max # ftp connections or something? | 14:17 |
| ziroday | xrekcilF: hmm odd, does this happen on the livecd/fresh install? | 14:18 |
| coz_ | xtknight, http://www.linuxalt.com/ | 14:18 |
| janhaj | ctmjr: but they don't know.. it is not so big linux guru.. | 14:18 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: that shouldn't be a problem.. are you connecting to it with 'connect to server' | 14:18 |
| xtknight | coz_, thx i was looking for that | 14:18 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, yea i am | 14:18 |
| Dr_Willis | amundsen: for that - normally i dont have to mess wth the xorg.conf any more. Once i get the video card drivers set proplery. they see/use the newer res. I do use DVI connectors that helps a lot these days. | 14:18 |

| coz_ | xtknight, there are also other laternatives for dreamwaever hold on | 14:18 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, but it works like half the time, sometimes i go into a directory it knocks me out of there with "Invalid reply" | 14:18 |
| xtknight | and gedit says same thing, same api i guess | 14:19 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: Yah, I would suggest changing to sftp if you can | 14:19 |
| Dr_Willis | amundsen: it may also depend on your video card/chipset | 14:19 |

| Tamale1 | can anyone help me with my hard lockups? | 14:19 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, so i could use sftp with a standard ftp server or? | 14:19 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, ya i might be able to help u with that | 14:19 |
| xrekcilF | ziroday: cant even play counter strike 1.6 because wine crashes :( | 14:19 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: do you have any access to the server | 14:19 |
| xtknight | coz_, thx a lot ill check it out | 14:19 |
| ziroday | xrekcilF: well can you please try a fresh install and see if this is reproducible | 14:19 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, not to the server shell at least i dont think so.. i mean it's like a webhost someone offered me so ive got cpanel ftp access, and so on | 14:20 |
| xrekcilF | ziroday: yes it does it every time i fresh install | 14:20 |
| coz_ | xtknight, just google linux alternatives for dreamweaver or linux dreamweaver alternatives | 14:20 |
| xrekcilF | ziroday: 12th fresh install atleast. | 14:20 |
| ziroday | xrekcilF: no as in burn a livecd, install flash and play flash | 14:20 |
| ctmjr | janhaj, ok with alsa type aplay -l in terminal | 14:20 |
| xtknight | coz_, ya i am more concerned about being able to use ftp like a simple ftp text editor or something. i think most of the linux web design tools dont have that but ill have to check it out | 14:20 |

| xtknight | Tamale1, hold down alt sys+rq then type REISUB while holding them down (that's "BUSIER" backwards) | 14:25 |
| ziroday | xrekcilF: that would be your choice. | 14:26 |
| xtknight | alt print screen...that's alt sysrq... | 14:26 |
| sambagirl | should i delete it dr_willis? | 14:26 |
| ctmjr | bo7amny, whoami | 14:26 |
| xtknight | this syncs to disk and might help you find a log, and then it will reboot your computer | 14:26 |
| bo7amny | thanks very very much | 14:26 |
| Dr_Willis | sambagirl: you have done a 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get upgrade' recently? | 14:26 |
| ctmjr | bo7amny, np | 14:26 |
| sambagirl | just a second dr_willis | 14:27 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: no response | 14:27 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, and whether or not this reboots your computer determines if it's a complete panic where SysRq does not work, or a soft lockup where it would | 14:27 |
| janhaj | ctmjr: I gave all thing to volume up.. but nothing happened.. | 14:27 |
| sambagirl | doing it now | 14:27 |
| panfist | is it normal for file transfers over ssh to be slower than usual>? | 14:27 |

| sambagirl | not working dr_willis | 14:28 |
| petr | czech :-) | 14:28 |
| Dr_Willis | ' slower than usual ' is vague panfist - ssh transfers are encrypted and thus a bit slower. | 14:28 |
| Dr_Willis | sambagirl: thats vague.. what command gives what error exactly? | 14:28 |

| ctmjr | janhaj, now try this speakertest | 14:29 |
| panfist | dr_willis without encryption my transfer speeds top out at around 225KB/s, using pscp over ssh it's about 100KB/s | 14:29 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, ok then you can press reset....uhh so try to get a dmesg into pastebin | 14:29 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, just a dmesg of a successfull bootup | 14:29 |
| Dr_Willis | panfist: encryption causes some overhead.. correct. | 14:29 |
| Dr_Willis | but that seems a little high. | 14:29 |
| KAIN | need help with squid, wccp v2 | 14:30 |
| Tamale1 | k | 14:30 |
| panfist | dr_willis well sshd is reporting 4-6% CPU usage...so something seems not right, like if it used more disk cache then it should be able to go faster | 14:30 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, and i find out i had sftp it says to use port 22.... and i still cant get it to connect | 14:30 |
| janhaj | ctmjr: how speakertest do you think? i test it in system/administration/sound but nothing happen.. | 14:30 |
| xtknight | found out | 14:30 |
| skoenman | can someone pls help me im running a vpslink server but i cant seem to get my tun device to activate i have tried dealing with the support guys but they say its beyond there scope....msg me pls if you can help | 14:30 |

| rski | skoenman: what ubuntu version? | 14:31 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, okay ya i just tried to get in touch with him | 14:31 |

| === Delhi_Carlol is now known as faldo | ||
| xtknight | Tamale1, so there are a few options about where to go from here, but a pastebin of your "dmesg" command output would be most useful. and the next step, assuming i look at the dmesg and see nothing unusual, is to gradually limit the modules that you load at bootup. following that, hook up the sick computer to another terminal and use kgdb (kernel debugger) | 14:32 |
| janhaj | ctmjr: open but no sound :( | 14:32 |

| Tamale1 | ah yes | 14:35 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, it looks like it's related to nvidia or suspend | 14:35 |
| Tamale1 | there it is | 14:35 |
| bullgard4 | nsahoo: I think it is stored in an environmental variable. | 14:35 |
| Tamale1 | what's that? | 14:35 |
| Tamale1 | parallel port driver? | 14:36 |
| Tamale1 | lol | 14:36 |

| janhaj | ctmjr: but thank you for your help :) | 14:36 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, that's a path of the code that executed and where the crash occurred and inside you see ck804 so something with your chipset maybe... but i can google that backtrace and see if the bug has been reported | 14:36 |
| nsahoo | there is a update-alternatives option for changing gnome-text-editor .. but, it does not work | 14:37 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: thank you | 14:37 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, and you want to submit that bug report because ubuntu can look at your backtrace and determine if it's been reported.... somehow it should say Crash Detected at the top right or something, no? | 14:37 |

| ubottu | To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » | 14:39 |

| Tamale1 | xtknight: ok, well once I try REISUB I'll get back to you | 14:44 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, okay.. and might try removing ck804xrom by "sudo rmmod ck804xrom" ... but that's after reisub.... and i dont know if that module is needed or not, but it will tell you | 14:45 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: ok, cool thanks | 14:45 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, and the bug was reported here http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8718#c22 apparently it should be harmless and might not be the source of your crashes but continue with reisub to see if something else is at work | 14:46 |

| xtknight | Tamale1, oh...do you recall changing anything between when it did and didn't work? | 14:48 |

| xtknight | Tamale1, oh alright it started in 9.04...well do you remember getting call traces on 8.10 also? | 14:50 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: I didn't use 8.10 for any length of time, I went straight from 8.04 to 9.04 | 14:51 |
| Darael | Andy80: I think so - basically, "user" is not a member of the group with the same name as your user, so his read ability on your home is governed by the "other" permissions, regardless of the priveleges set in the "users and groups" widow | 14:51 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: well, to be clearer, i was only in 8.10 for as long as it took me to update to 9.04 ;) | 14:52 |
| Jenk | Anyway to reset a root password ? | 14:52 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, do you have a 64bit kernel | 14:52 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: Yes | 14:52 |
| Andy80 | Darael: ok, thanks :) I try now! | 14:52 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, you might try 32bit 9.04 livecd to see if it crashes there. kernel bug people say it's only a problem with the 64bit kernel. that's just to see if the problem is at all related | 14:52 |
| xtknight | livecd meaning you dont have to install it.. | 14:52 |
| sambagirl | dr_willis i suppose i will just start over from scratch. i dont have any idea to restore the audio and i might as well just do it from the start again. | 14:53 |

| Tamale1 | indeed. problem is this computer is useless to me without virtualbox running | 14:53 |
| xtknight | what do you mean by virtualbox...how are you using it | 14:53 |
| Tamale1 | xtknight: I use virtualbox to run windows xp on it | 14:53 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, but you can briefly try a 32bit livecd right? | 14:53 |
| Tamale1 | sure, if i can find a blank cd-r :) | 14:54 |
| xtknight | ahhh | 14:54 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, you seemed to imply using 32bit was mutually exclusive to virtualbox also or something..do you have >=4GB of ram? | 14:54 |
| Tamale1 | oh, no that's not the case | 14:54 |
| Tamale1 | just that I'd prefer not to set everything up again | 14:55 |
| xtknight | Tamale1, and are you using virtualization extensions at all in virtualbox? these are a huge, giant, monstrous source of the hardest crashes..... trust me i've gotten plenty. | 14:55 |
| graelin | Can anyone tell me exactly hat pulseaudio does other than hose most sound applications in Ubuntu? What is a more stable equivalent, and why do I actually need it to begin with? | 14:55 |

| Drag0nflamez | ok | 15:16 |
| grawity | Jenk: By default, there is no root password in Ubuntu - you use 'sudo', and enter your own password when asked. If you _did_ have a root password, boot to the "recovery mode" from the bootmenu. | 15:16 |

| cporter | Anyone know how to get rsync to copy an entire ubuntu install and have it work in another machine? | 16:19 |
| sipior | cporter: rsync will have probably have an issue with the contents of /proc. vastly simpler to install the same version of linux on the new machine, and copy over what you want. or use a tool like partimage to move the partitions over. you'll need to reinstall grub, whether you use rsync or partimage. | 16:19 |
| dillard | i got this when i copied that bash: «: command not found | 16:19 |
| Slart | cporter: I don't think you can do that without some kind of manual fixing | 16:19 |
| Slart | cporter: things such as root drive uuid, for example | 16:19 |
| swivels | dillard: try this : http://albertsiow.wordpress.com/2008/06/26/restore-panel-bartop-in-ubuntu-gnome/ | 16:19 |

| boss_mc | dillard: don't copy the << bits | 16:19 |
| cporter | sipior, partimage doesn't support ext4, clonezilla breaks grub, and rsync is the easiest, so I wasn't sure if it would work just to sync etc, usr and bin? | 16:20 |

| sipior | jon_high9000: how are you attempting to change the ip address? which gateway are we talking about? | 16:27 |
| Slart | Guest88114: use the one that the hardware drivers dialog recommends | 16:28 |
| resno1 | mdm: its all the parameters you pass that catch me | 16:28 |
| mdm | resno1: notice how they are in [] it means they are optional | 16:29 |

| Guest48866 | Are network login passwords vulnerable to a rainbow table attack? | 16:31 |
| Guest88114 | got it | 16:31 |
| D-Xero | ba bam | 16:31 |
| Guest88114 | tq for reply.. | 16:31 |
| sipior | jon_high9000: can you set the address via ifconfig? | 16:31 |
| Slart | Guest88114: networks don't generally have passwords.. servers/gateways and such have passwords | 16:32 |
| D-Xero | n | 16:32 |
| Guest88114 | w/c | 16:32 |
| jon_high9000 | sipior: I don't know how. | 16:32 |
| mdm | Guest48866: they are in plain text unless you use an encrypted connection | 16:32 |
| Slart | Guest88114: so explain a bit more what you are talking about.. what passwords.. | 16:32 |
| sipior | jon_high9000: best to avoid network manager for static addresses (although it supposedly has better support for them in the current version | 16:32 |
| Guest88114 | i already solved it by myself | 16:32 |
| swivels | guest48877: do you mean like AD or LDAP based stuff? | 16:32 |
| Guest88114 | tq all ^^ | 16:32 |
| dajhorn | Guest88114: The befsr41 stores its passwords in nvram as plain text. | 16:33 |
| sipior | jon_high9000: try "sudo ifconfig eth0 <ipaddress> broadcast <broadcast> netmask <netmask>" | 16:33 |
| Guest48866 | Slart: When using a semi-public computer such as at a university you logon through a password and you have to press ctrl-alt-del to access the prompt | 16:33 |
| brayden | goodnght | 16:33 |
| mdm | a rainbow table is used to revese the password has an a passwd/shadow file. Which Guest48866 are used to store passwords for pam and are not transmitted by any program. | 16:33 |
| jon_high9000 | sipior: is there a url to reference for example | 16:33 |
| Slart | Guest48866: yes.. you logon to *the computer*... if that password is vulnerable depends on the computer | 16:33 |
| === adam is now known as Adam_ | ||
| Slade | if i do an apt-get install kde it will not make my ubuntu install a Kubuntu install, will it? | 16:34 |
| znh | Guest48866, depends on the encryption method used. If it uses an 'random' exchanged so called salt; It is less vulnerable | 16:34 |
| sipior | jon_high9000: an example: "sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255" | 16:34 |
| mdm | Guest48866: using ctrl-alt-del is not to encrypt, keep safe or othwise. It simply is to ensure you are on the local computer when you enter your password | 16:34 |
| Guest48866 | Slart: Try removing the ethernet cable and loging in. The OS is not on that computer (sometimes it is) | 16:35 |
| swivels | guest48866: most networks have a failure threshold before they lock the account down. local access can sometimes be gained that way but rarely network privs | 16:35 |
| Guest48866 | mdm:I was saying that because most people will reconise the prompt by saying that | 16:35 |
| Unpredictable | can someone help me with my nvidia graphics? I had a radeon installed and I switched it to a geforce 5500 and when I installed the nvidia graphics recommended all I get it 2 small resolutions to choose from! | 16:36 |
| Slart | Guest48866: and if you press the power button you can't login at all.. do you login to the power button? the operating system probably uses the network to authenticate from *another server*... still not the network | 16:36 |
| jon_high9000 | sipior: fair enough. thanks for the alternative. i wasn't aware of that. thanks again. | 16:36 |
| Guest48866 | swivels: Thats what I thought. My friend has a rediculously long pwd and it takes him about a minute to type it in | 16:36 |
| ctmjr | Slade, at log in you can login to kde or gnome but you will have a bloated system with a mix of kde and gnome apps | 16:36 |
| Darael | Slade: no, but sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop almost will | 16:36 |
| swivels | guest48866: generally anything longer than 15 chars cannot be broken by the traditional stuff like ophcrack | 16:36 |
| regeya | wheee | 16:37 |
| * regeya d'oh sorry | 16:37 | |
| Guest48866 | Slart: the power button is a login! It ensures that non-sentient species cannot access information that may lead them to literacy and overthrow humans from power! | 16:37 |
| Darael | Slade: you'll still have some stuff left from the Ubuntu desktop, though | 16:37 |
| regeya | ridiculously long passwords are a good thing, if you can remember them | 16:37 |
| Slart | Guest48866: you can use active directory or kerberos to authenticate from a central server.. there are other ways too.. it's up to the server that stores the passwords to make sure they are safe from attacks and such.. the network just shuffles information around.. it doesn't care about passwords.. | 16:37 |
| Guest48866 | swivels: It is best not to mention specific software... | 16:37 |
| Unpredictable | anyone? | 16:38 |
| Slart | Guest48866: doh.. forgot about the non-sentient ones.. my bad =) | 16:38 |
| Nationiant | Is there a program such as "Source compiler" or so? | 16:38 |
| mdm | Guest48866: with the offloading of the password to shadow and using random salts it is much harder to reverse the password field. It is much easier to brute force it with a dictionary attack. Still anyone with enough patience can simply brute force it given enough time. This is why password policies ask you to use upper case, lower case, numbers and symbols for the password and why they want you to change it every so often | 16:38 |
| swivels | guest48866: lol I think that anyone who has ever had to bust a windows box has used it:) | 16:38 |

| txcen | hi | 16:39 |
| Slart | Nationiant: source compiler? ehmm.. is that different from a general compiler such as gcc? | 16:39 |
| regeya | yeah, and I'd argue it's good for people to familiarize themselves with common cracking tools, to know what they're up against | 16:39 |
| Guest48866 | swivels: shhhhh! Dont let the serfs know about that! They will either have a panic attack or hack everything in sight if they see how insecure MS is | 16:39 |
| Unpredictable | I switched graphics cards from a radeon 7000 to a geforce fx 5500 and installed the 173 recommended drivers.. Now I can only choose from 2 resolutions 640x480 and a 320 one. Does anyone know how to fix this? | 16:40 |
| Nationiant | Slart: thanks, I meant that, I just didn't remember the name of GCC | 16:40 |
| ctmjr | Unpredictable, did you uninstall the ati drivers first? | 16:41 |
| Pici | Nationiant: You'll probably need the build-essential package if you're looking to do any compiling | 16:41 |
| swivels | unpredictable: have you tried envy? | 16:41 |
| Unpredictable | ctmjr: no I didn't know how im new.. | 16:41 |
| Darael | Unpredictable: Is that in the "system->preferences->display" section or "system->adimistration->nvidia x server settings? | 16:41 |
| Slade | Darael, well,t he idea is to not have a Kubuntu install. But there are KDE apps that I like. Right now i have some of kde3 installed, and i want to have those upgraded to kde4 | 16:42 |
| Nationiant | Pici: How do I get that | 16:42 |
| Pici | Nationiant: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 16:42 |
| Unpredictable | darael: nvidia x server.. I can't use display it tells me its not supported to use nvidia settings | 16:42 |
| Nationiant | Pici: I did it, it says that it's the newest version already | 16:42 |
| Pici | Nationiant: Then you're all set | 16:42 |
| Nationiant | Pici: Then how do I compile things? | 16:43 |
| Darael | Slade: the kubuntu-desktop metapackage basically gives you everything from kubuntu (at KDE4) but leaves your default session as GNOME | 16:43 |
| Guest48866 | I am looking for an OS that is very lite. I have found that it is faster for me to brute force my math homework than to actually try but, it takes a few minutes if it is not a whole number. Would there be anything faster than Ruby? | 16:43 |

| Guest48866 | Slart: x+2=4 but, A little more complex | 16:45 |
| Hodapp | It might actually teach you OO properly. | 16:45 |

| Guest48866 | Slart: If I dont write the program myself I cant turn in the program to show my work. But I do know what you are talking about | 16:46 |

| Mnemonic^ | dajhorn, Where do I fint beta packages? | 17:01 |
| Nationiant | mdm: but I want to use some files via Terminal from my other HDD, 1,1 I think | 17:01 |
| jado | hi, i'm trying to upgrade to kde 4.3 (i think i succeeded) but i have this message when i do apt-get upgrade (or aptitude safe-upgrade) | 17:02 |
| dajhorn | Mnemonic^: packages.ubuntu.com in the "karmic" repositories. | 17:02 |
| jado | The following packages have been kept back: kdeplasma-addons | 17:02 |
| Mnemonic^ | dajhorn, Thanks | 17:02 |
| mdm | Nationiant: then tansfer the files, files are on top of the filesystem, which is on top of the partition. You simply copy files from one file to another | 17:03 |
| Mnemonic^ | dajhorn, What does karmic mean? | 17:03 |
| netyire | hi all! I'm trying to type chinese with scim, I've installed the chinese package and scim -- but haven't a clue how to get it into chinese mode... meh. anyone have a clue? | 17:03 |
| Nationiant | mdm, okay | 17:03 |
| dajhorn | Mnemonic^: It is the code name for the next Ubuntu release. | 17:03 |
| axisys | how do I find out what files get installed with a pkg ? | 17:03 |
| Mnemonic^ | dajhorn, ok. | 17:03 |
| netyire | axisys: right click -> properties | 17:03 |
| gonzoes | How do you get a p | 17:04 |
| axisys | netyire: sorry I meant in cli | 17:04 |

| PerryArmstrong | can anyone tell me how to use taskel to create UI. I tried googling but didnt get much info...please help | 17:04 |
| dajhorn | axisys: After the package is installed, you can do `dpkg --listfiles MyPackage` at a prompt. | 17:05 |

| bullgard4 | Pici: I find that the DEB program packages 'libgweather1' and 'libgweather-common' are installed on my computer. I am not interested in weather reports. Can I deinstall both packages without tearing down any more important prgrams? | 17:06 |
| mdm | gonzoes: patches are simply changes to source code, there not like windows updates. You apply a patch to code then recompile it | 17:06 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: Do you mean a desktop environment with a GUI and a mouse? -- If you did a server install, then run `apt-get install ubuntu-desktop` | 17:06 |
| Adam_ | I think that did the trick. | 17:07 |
| Adam_ | Cheers. | 17:07 |
| gonzoes | mdm: sweet, thank you. how do i apply a patch to code and compile it | 17:07 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn;justin; i am doing a project for a local OS called eswecha. So i have to do an User Interface (UI) using tasksel that it can download/install important packages for specific users | 17:07 |
| lesshaste | I did "sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer" and now want to reverse that.. how would I do it? | 17:08 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; this happens when the user installs the OS... | 17:08 |
| mdm | gonzoes: patch -options < patchfile | 17:08 |
| swivels | PerryArmstrong: you are trying to build a front-end to tasksel then? | 17:08 |
| cporter | A kerberos user I have is allowed sudo privleges, but can't use the 'User & Groups' program in Administration. Is there something I'm missing to make someone admin? | 17:09 |
| PerryArmstrong | swivels; actually i have no idea about creating this front end but if i get proper info i can study it and do the work | 17:09 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: Do you already understand the packaging system? Can you make a DEB file from a source tarball? | 17:09 |
| cporter | The user can use sudo and act as root by the way | 17:09 |
| mdm | gonzoes: If you do not know what to do with them, do not know what REJ parts are, and most importantly can not read the code to begin with to stay away from custom patching code and compiling it | 17:09 |
| JediMaster | can anyone recommend a command line ftp client to upload directories and sub-dirs? | 17:09 |
| swivels | PerryArmstrong: if you are trying to add options to tasksel so people can choose a different UI, you'd have to get the tasksel source and go from there. | 17:09 |
| Drag0nflamez | JediMaster: the default 'ftp' command? | 17:10 |
| gonzoes | mdm: today is my 3rd ubuntu day. i typed patch -options < patchfile (the name of the file) into terminal, got nothing though | 17:10 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; yes the purpose of the UI is to install the metapackages that i have already created. i do know about packaging | 17:10 |
| JediMaster | Drag0nflamez: how do you do recursive uploads? | 17:10 |
| axisys | aptitude show libmapi0 gives Version: 1:0.8-2ubuntu1 .. is thsi libmapi version 0.8.2 ? | 17:10 |
| mdm | gonzoes: I was paraphrasing it, greatly | 17:10 |
| Drag0nflamez | JediMaster: i don't know | 17:10 |
| Drag0nflamez | gui always works better | 17:10 |
| Drag0nflamez | in my opinion | 17:10 |
| JediMaster | Dracofodder: pretty sure you can't | 17:11 |
| axisys | i need to install libmapi version 0.8.2 and dont know if it is already installed | 17:11 |
| JediMaster | Drag0nflamez: I'm ftping on a remote server via SSH to another remote server | 17:11 |
| JediMaster | so gui isn't an option | 17:11 |
| Drag0nflamez | SCP client? | 17:11 |
| JediMaster | don't have ssh access | 17:11 |
| Drag0nflamez | something like WinSCP? | 17:11 |
| JediMaster | to the other server | 17:11 |
| Drag0nflamez | winscp also has sftp etc | 17:12 |
| sfstikkun | Hi, is there a protocol for asking questions here? | 17:12 |
| JediMaster | Drag0nflamez: I don't think you understand | 17:12 |
| volume | sfstikkun: probably "don't ask to ask... just ask" :) | 17:12 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: Create a /usr/share/tasksel/ description file. Use the existing ubuntu-tasks.desc file as a starting point. | 17:12 |
| JediMaster | I have ftp access to a remote machine that I want to upload files to, I have no other access (sftp/scp/ssh) | 17:12 |
| sfstikkun | thanks volume. | 17:12 |
| charles__ | JediMaster: tar the directory you need and then ftp it up | 17:12 |
| JediMaster | I want to ssh into an ubuntu server which I have ssh access to and fto the files from that machine to the other one | 17:12 |
| sfstikkun | Suddenly I have what looks like system files in my user file. How do I figure out what they are and how do I get them back where they belong? | 17:13 |
| JediMaster | charles__: again, you've not quite got it, the remote server has ftp access, nothing else, ftp can't untar for me | 17:13 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: Then package your .desc file in a DEB and distribute it through an APT repository. | 17:13 |
| detach- | JediMaster, what runs on the "other" machine then? | 17:13 |
| volume | sfstikkun: hmm.. give me an example | 17:13 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; can you help me in getting any availabe online manuals...i googled but i didnt get | 17:13 |
| swivels | jedimaster: you can use scp -r | 17:14 |
| sfstikkun | volume...give me a sec and I'll give you a small list of examples | 17:14 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: You're asking for help with a development task. apt-get source tasksel | 17:14 |
| JediMaster | swivels: scp does plain ftp?? | 17:14 |
| detach- | JediMaster, search for ncftpd. It has a command mput | 17:15 |
| JediMaster | that's the bunny | 17:15 |
| JediMaster | thanks detach-, I knew there was one I used years ago | 17:15 |
| detach- | JediMaster, sorry i meant ncftp (no "d" at the end) | 17:15 |
| swivels | jedimaster: if you have ssh access you should be able to use scp | 17:15 |

| sfstikkun | volume...here are three of MANY .aeolus-presets, .aspell.en.prep1, .bash-logout | 17:17 |
| user___ | anyone familiar with fixing ati driver problems? | 17:17 |
| volume | sfstikkun since those files start with a ".", they are likely not system files | 17:17 |
| sfstikkun | What kinds of files would they be? whatever they are, they don't belong in my user file | 17:18 |
| volume | sfstikkun rather, they are likely files that are meant to be in your home folder (/home/sfstikkun/), but are usually hidden | 17:18 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 17:18 |
| sfstikkun | so what do I do with these things? | 17:18 |
| Guest88912 | cant download nvidia driver..got error on terminal=Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 17:18 |
| silv3r_m00n | I have 2 broadband connections 1 on eth0 and another on eth1 .... is it possible to use both connections ? | 17:18 |
| volume | sfstikkun perhaps a setting has changed to show files that are generally hidden... let's see if we can change that setting back | 17:18 |
| sfstikkun | Thanks, volume | 17:19 |
| Darael | sfstikkun: they _are_ meant to be there, most likely - they're hidden files govenring (mostly) preferences for different things. Dame with the many folders you probably have that start with "." | 17:19 |
| Guest88912 | any1 can help me with nvidia driver? | 17:19 |
| sfstikkun | Dame? | 17:19 |
| detach- | Guest88912, type sudo [the command you just ran] | 17:20 |
| volume | sfstikkun: if you are using the regular flavor of ubuntu, and have a window open to your home folder, try going to edit -> preferences, then in the 'views' tab, de-select 'show hidden and backup files' | 17:20 |
| Darael | sfstikkun: if you're in Gnome (ubnut as opposed to Kubuntu or Xubuntu) then you can hide them again by going view->show hidden files in a file manager window | 17:20 |
| Guest88912 | apt-get install nvidia-glx-180 | 17:20 |
| user___ | after installing ati drivers I lost my display. Now I get grub, splash, but no login, just some purple lines. Reconfigure xorg no longer works as a driver fix. | 17:20 |

| detach- | Guest88912, yes type "sudo apt-get install blahblah" | 17:21 |
| volume | sfstikkun: yep... darael's way is a few clicks quicker | 17:21 |
| ctmjr | Guest88912, you need to close all other package managers | 17:21 |

| Guest88912 | ctmjr::i try | 17:22 |
| mohan_ | partition clone to a file.. | 17:22 |
| dajhorn | silv3r_m00n: Yes, but it involved some advanced system changes. Research the 'route' command and understand the 'nexthop' key word. | 17:22 |
| detach- | Guest88912, ctmjr's suggestion is worth a try as well | 17:22 |
| manunana89 | whats the problem? | 17:22 |
| sfstikkun | K let me try that. brb | 17:22 |
| BadBatzMaru | hi, would be please someone so generous and gimme here direct link for ubuntu kernel source package .. sorry, i've got only terminal access to connect internet now | 17:22 |

| manunana89 | no orry | 17:23 |
| dajhorn | silv3r_m00n: You would create entries for each broadband connection in /etc/network/interfaces, and then run an appropriate `route add default scope global nexthop via ...` command. | 17:23 |
| mdm | BadBatzMaru: sudo apt-cache kernel-source | 17:23 |

| jon_high9000 | sipior: based on your example look like dns addresses are not needed to establish a static ip address yes? | 17:24 |
| silv3r_m00n | is it possible to make a particular application say kget or ktorrent use a particular connection and firefox using another | 17:24 |
| Darael | mohan_: you'll probably want to use something like partimage... which would entail going "sudo aptitude install partimage; sudo partimage save /dev/whatever /path/to/image | 17:24 |
| mohan_ | thanx Darael. i know that stuff.. but some other command exists | 17:25 |
| sipior | jon_high9000: no, they're not needed (you're specifying an address to begin with; no translation is required) | 17:25 |
| mohan_ | somebody here said me.. but i forgot the command :( | 17:25 |
| dajhorn | silv3r_m00n: Some search queries should be "load balancing", "network turnking", or "interface bonding". | 17:25 |

| danhs | I think I apt-get upgraded latest firefox and now it won't start | 17:25 |
| danhs | odd, no? but does anyone know how I can fix it?! | 17:25 |
| Darael | mohan_: if you want a bit-for-bit copy you could use dd... | 17:25 |
| silv3r_m00n | dajhorn: fine, I will do that tomorrow , getting sleepy | 17:25 |
| mohan_ | yeah.. thats wat.. | 17:25 |

| sipior | jon_high9000: just so we're on the same page here: you will need to specify a nameserver address (preferably two) in /etc/resolv.conf. you only specify ip addresses (not dns names) when configuring the network interfaces, however. | 17:27 |
| Darael | mohan_: hope it works for ya }:=8) | 17:27 |
| dajhorn | BadBatzMaru: You can download Ubuntu packages directly from http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 17:27 |

| mitm | ok. Terminal, i am new to linux | 17:28 |

| lesshaste | at least how can I see what sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer wants to install so I can install them one at a time? | 17:28 |
| dajhorn | BadBatzMaru: You can unpack a DEB package on a non-Debian or non-Ubuntu system with utilities like `ar`, `gzip`, `cpio`, etc. | 17:28 |

| Darael | mohan_: you may have to enable other repository components | 17:31 |
| lesshaste | jrib: I think there is a log for apt-get somewhere | 17:31 |
| frostburn | danhs, there was a firefox update, make sure it's completely killed before starting a new instance | 17:31 |

| danhs | frostburn: what if it uhhh wasn't | 17:31 |
| danhs | frostburn, what's command to do that? killall *firefox? | 17:31 |
| frostburn | danhs, start it in a terminal, what's the output say? | 17:31 |
| frostburn | danhs, i use pkill firefox | 17:32 |

| frostburn | danhs, ps -ef|grep firefox | 17:34 |
| mdm | BadBatzMaru: generally insuting the people who try to help you is not a good way to go. I would assume your knowlege of a working system is so limited as to give you the answer would impeed you actualy learning how to use the comptuer | 17:34 |
| burvowski | Hi everyone. I have a 4 gig USB flash drive that I partioned into 3 FAT32 segments in gparted.

| burvowski | Dr_Willis, I see it with that command. just would like it to appear in nautilius | 17:35 |
| mitm | I have enough money to start my own hosting business and domain registra services.. But I dont know where to start from and how to accomplish that.. any suggetions:: | 17:35 |
| mitm | Ç) | 17:35 |
| Dr_Willis | burvowski: you did format the filesystem? perhaps you dident format all 3. it wont show an unformated partiion. | 17:36 |
| frostburn | danhs, in the terminal, what's the last few lines of: strace firefox | 17:36 |
| dajhorn | !offtopic | mitm | 17:36 |
| ubottu | mitm: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 17:36 |
| mphill | mitm: the market is saturated already, good luck. | 17:36 |
| Darael | mohan_: sure... what's the trouble? | 17:36 |
| mohan_ | Darael: i can't find partimage on medibuntu also (added to repository) | 17:37 |
| danhs | frostburn: the "choose profile" dialog just popped up and the strace kinda stopped | 17:37 |
| danhs | should I choose a profile? | 17:37 |
| Dr_Willis | burvowski: depending on what live-disrto you are putting on the thing. You dont need a seperate partion for each one. I made a 8gb flash drive with 5 different disrtos 0on it once. :) | 17:37 |
| krishmish | slart, im having problems viewing my yahoomail..in FF in ubuntu 9.04, can someone help? | 17:37 |
| frostburn | danhs, you shouldn't need to but choose the default one that you use | 17:37 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; i need to create a User Interface (not GUI) which when integrated with OS will install the necessary metapackages which i create while installing the OS .... the UI should appear when the OS is being installed | 17:37 |
| burvowski | Dr_Willis thanks, I'll give that a shot. it's crunchbang and UNR 9.04 | 17:37 |
| danhs | frostburn: I needed to make alternate profiles for a web scraping project, so now it does that | 17:37 |
| krishmish | slart: im having problems viewing my yahoomail..in FF in ubuntu 9.04, can someone help? | 17:37 |
| Darael | mohan_: if you're on a live CD then to install partimage you need to go system->administration->software sources and check all four boxes on the first tab | 17:37 |
| danhs | frostburn: what's the paste pad site used here? | 17:38 |
| user___ | ctmjr Sorry, I was away for a minute. I initially tried the AMD/ATI driver, that's when I got into trouble. Then I tried the fglrx, but I'm still having the same problem. | 17:38 |
| burvowski | Is an "IMG" file a ISO or a "Flop"? | 17:38 |
| danhs | got it | 17:38 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: Look at the /usr/share/tasksel/ubuntu-tasks.desc file, and create the same thing for your project. | 17:38 |
| mohan_ | Darael: oh.. should i be on live cd.. ok.. | 17:38 |
| Dr_Willis | burvowski: when you 'dd' UNR to a flash drive.. it partions the drive in a weird way ive seen.. no partions. as for crunchbang. why not just install openbox on the UNR . | 17:38 |
| mohan_ | Darael: after checkin all the four boxes am i able to install it? | 17:38 |
| Darael | mohan_: it's best to be. | 17:38 |
| Dr_Willis | burvowski: its a Flash drive Image.. :) | 17:38 |
| mitm | lol | 17:39 |
| frostburn | danhs, you can use anything http://pastebin.com/ | 17:39 |
| mitm | but i am talking about linux .. | 17:39 |
| ctmjr | user___, so now you have 2 fglrx drivers installed 1 from the ati site and 1 from ubuntu? | 17:39 |
| Darael | mohan_: you should, once you close the dialog and let the package cacge update. You _can_ use it without being on a live CD, but it's best to be | 17:39 |
| superboy_ | need help http://paste.ubuntu.com/196404/ | 17:39 |
| danhs | frostburn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/196432/ | 17:39 |
| danhs | frostburn: I just used the ubuntu.com one in the channel description | 17:39 |
| disappearedng | Hey how do I find out which application is using port 8008 | 17:39 |
| mohan_ | Darael: while i am on jaunty 64 live cd sometimes network is not detected.. what is the command to activate it? | 17:39 |
| dajhorn | superboy_: You have bad hardware. Replace the burner. | 17:40 |
| user___ | I believe I have uninstalled all of the ATI drivers at the moment. | 17:40 |
| mohan_ | Darael: i am using adsl connection on lan.. | 17:40 |
| superboy_ | u mean i have to buy a brand new dvd burner? | 17:40 |
| danhs | frostburn: wait! the synaptic updater utility says I need to update firefox even after running sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade | 17:40 |
| Darael | mohan_: try "sudo ifconfig up eth0". | 17:40 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : sudo ifup eth0 | 17:40 |
| scena | Does anyone have a link/howto on serring up Ubuntu to act as an ICAP virus scanner user ClamAV? | 17:40 |
| dajhorn | superboy_: Yes, that is the meaning of that error. | 17:40 |
| scena | setting | 17:41 |
| mitm | port scanner | 17:41 |
| mitm | or upd listener. | 17:41 |
| mitm | shows u open ports.. | 17:41 |
| mohan_ | Darael: thanx | 17:41 |
| superboy_ | aww man and i just bought this one and installed it | 17:41 |
| dajhorn | superboy_: You'll get an increasing number of bad burns until the drive fails entirely. | 17:41 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: thanx.. :) | 17:41 |
| danhs | frostburn: maybe I had synaptic open simultaneously..... | 17:41 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : sudo ifup wlan0 | 17:41 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : accordingly | 17:41 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : whats the error? | 17:41 |
| mitm | scena, visit www.howtoforge.com ..] | 17:42 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: just network link dont get detected while using live cd.. | 17:42 |
| Darael | krishmish: mohan_ needs to image some partitions, but the livecd somethimes has network trouble | 17:42 |
| shyam_k | how was it to change the sound card on bash? | 17:42 |
| shyam_k | i forgot that | 17:42 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : 9.04? | 17:42 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : is it sorted now? | 17:42 |
| frostburn | danhs, you can also see if firefox is holding any files open, lsof|grep firefox | 17:42 |
| ctmjr | user___, ok you need to make sure you cannot have both at the same time the best thing to do is remove everything and start over, what graphic card do you have and what ubuntu dist do you have ie. 9.04 | 17:43 |
| shyam_k | i have two cards displayed by cat /proc/asounds/cards | 17:43 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: yes.. | 17:43 |
| scena | mitm: decent start, buti already have a proxy set up. i just need to make an ICAP server. ill look at the two links and see if they can help me | 17:43 |
| shyam_k | now i wanna change the one working now to the other.. | 17:43 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: no.. i will reboot and boot from live cd.. | 17:43 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: yes its 9.04 | 17:43 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : whats the OS on ur machine? | 17:43 |
| scena | brb. | 17:43 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: Ubuntu studio 9.04 | 17:44 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: now i will boot to live cd and need to do some backup.. | 17:44 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; i visited the /usr/share/tasksel...but didnt get any idea....i hope you understand that i have to create an UI which installs the metapackages that i have created....this should happen when i install the OS | 17:44 |
| shyam_k | asoundconf set-default-card isn't doing that | 17:44 |
| danhs | frostburn: checking now | 17:44 |
| danhs | frostburn: thanks so much for the help\ | 17:44 |
| BadBatzMaru | mdm: omg. yes. you are retarded, definitely :D .. you don't understand than forcing bullshit instead a answer a given question, if want to answer, is quite impolite .. forcing point missing wises again and again even if theres no interest for them (they are missing point) smells by real ignoracy\ | 17:44 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : u mean u have no other OS ??? | 17:45 |
| user___ | I have 9.04 and when I run aptitude search ATI, nothing is installed except ttf-liberation. I'll have to open the box to find the exact video card type | 17:45 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : its for a data recovery?? | 17:45 |
| stew | BadBatzMaru: please keep your language family friendly in here, and lets please keep the conversation civil | 17:45 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: no.. | 17:45 |
| danhs | frostburn: something is held by firefox http://paste.ubuntu.com/196440/ | 17:45 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: i have seperate empty partition to save data.. | 17:45 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : then? | 17:45 |
| BadBatzMaru | stew: surely .. sorry | 17:45 |
| Darael | krishmish: it's for _potential_ data recovery | 17:45 |
| stew | BadBatzMaru: what do you need the kernel source for? | 17:45 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: seperate hard drive.. | 17:46 |
| krishmish | okay...then u may as well install the OS in a small partition | 17:46 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : u can also use Helix | 17:46 |
| BadBatzMaru | stew: i've got fallen X in my fedora system and i need to try ubuntu patched module | 17:46 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: helix : A OS? | 17:46 |
| stew | BadBatzMaru: what is "fallen X"? | 17:46 |
| frostburn | danhs, yeah i have the same thing, you could try relogging | 17:46 |
| scales11 | hi all quick question. where do i control what is started when ubuntu boots up? example. if i want to start gdm or other daemons and then also if i want to load say a panel (bmpanel) | 17:47 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: You said earlier that you wanted to front the tasksel program. If you cannot understand the desc file, then you cannot succced. | 17:47 |
| Darael | mohan_: OK, krishmish seems to know more about this than me... can I pass you over? | 17:47 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : kind of...rather its for computer forensics, incident response and electronic discovery | 17:47 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: `apt-get source tasksel` and read it. | 17:47 |
| mohan_ | Darael: ok.. | 17:47 |
| cozmoz | I installed dockbarx.deb and gnome-dockbarx applet.deb but I dont find them anywhere!...how do I uninstall these packages? | 17:47 |
| mohan_ | Darael: thanx for ur advice :) | 17:47 |
| ctmjr | user___, you do not need to open the box type lspci | grep VGA | 17:47 |
| stew | BadBatzMaru: so do you intend on using a ubuntu kernel? or ripping some source out of a ubuntu kernel, adding the source to a fedora kernel, and building that? | 17:47 |
| BadBatzMaru | stew: this bloody via chrome gfx card dont work in fedora .. i experienced that under ubuntu live cd it was ok | 17:47 |
| krishmish | darael: about what?? | 17:47 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: is it bootable OS? | 17:47 |
| Darael | krishmish: this sort of backup and restore for dying had drives, etc. | 17:48 |
| danhs | frostburn: I already restarted before | 17:48 |
| krishmish | ymohan_ : its live cd as well as installable | 17:48 |
| BadBatzMaru | stew: so i'd like to download kernel src package, unpack it, get from within a module and compile it | 17:48 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: really.. wow.. i didn't knew it.. | 17:48 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : try efense.com...the site is like this i think | 17:48 |
| frostburn | danhs, perhaps, move your user directory mv .mozilla .mozilla.old and try starting again | 17:48 |
| === sopi is now known as Guest22099 | ||
| BadBatzMaru | stew: and i am not able to find via links this package link on ubuntu site | 17:48 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : or google for helix3 | 17:49 |
| stew | BadBatzMaru: then you'd want a binary package with a name starting with "linux-source" not a source package. "apt-cache search -n linux-source" would list available linux-source packages for your version of ubuntu | 17:49 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: ok will try.. is it free? | 17:49 |
| BadBatzMaru | stew: ah | 17:49 |
| user___ | RV515 PRO Radeon x1300/x1550 series | 17:49 |
| BadBatzMaru | stew: superb .. good advice. indeed | 17:49 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : i don know fro sure as on now, when i downloaded it, it was free | 17:49 |
| danhs | frostburn: waiting for this upgrade to go through, then I'll try log out, log in and then move user directory if necessary | 17:49 |
| stew | BadBatzMaru: http://packages.ubuntu.com/linux-source | 17:49 |
| BadBatzMaru | stew: thanks\ | 17:49 |
| stanner | is there an easy way (like checkinstall) to build a .deb file from source code in a way i can redistribute it to classmates? | 17:50 |

| mohan_ | krishmish: oh.. man i need a forum membership.. and its 239$ a year !!! | 17:50 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : try the torrent sites for the free one | 17:50 |
| danhs | frostburn: well upgrade didn't fix it | 17:50 |
| BadBatzMaru | stew: great .. thanks man | 17:51 |
| danhs | so you think I should log out and in again or do profile move | 17:51 |
| cozmoz | I installed dockbarx.deb and gnome-dockbarx applet.deb but I dont find them anywhere!...how do I uninstall these packages? | 17:51 |
| frostburn | danhs, all of the above until you get it working | 17:51 |
| mitm | If i were u , i wont rely on torrents ... | 17:51 |

| stanner | om26er: you could probably compile it from source | 17:52 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : are u okay with it or do u need help ?? | 17:52 |
| Johnny_5 | anybody here besides me use enlightenment? | 17:52 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: i want to backup the partition in which OS is installed and transfer it to another partition and make it bootable.. | 17:52 |
| frostburn | mohan_, you'll want to use dd | 17:52 |
| kevin_ | #nick | canadaeh | 17:53 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: backup thing will be covered with dd or partimage.. but what about making it bootable? | 17:53 |
| stanner | om26er: you can use unetbootin on fedora thouhg | 17:53 |
| === kevin_ is now known as | | ||
| Dr_Willis | Unetbootin is handy | 17:53 |
| frostburn | mohan_, you can use dd to copy the mbr as well | 17:53 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : u mean the data in the partition or all the packages as well?? | 17:53 |
| | | #nick canadaeh | 17:53 |

| sfstikkun | Hi, This turned up when I tried to download stuff from ubuntu Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/universe/binary-i386/packages | 17:53 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: data in the partition.. everything.. | 17:53 |
| === | is now known as canadaeh | ||
| krishmish | mohan_ : mohan_ : i get u now... | 17:53 |
| * canadaeh finally lol.. | 17:54 | |
| krishmish | mohan_ : u know the aptoncd??? | 17:54 |
| mohan_ | frostburn: will try that man :) | 17:54 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: yeah.. | 17:54 |
| danhs | frostburn: well, log in and out didn't work | 17:54 |
| stanner | hw do i make a .deb package using checkinstall so i can redistrubute the deb file to other classmates | 17:54 |
| frostburn | mohan_, http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/ddcommand.htm | 17:54 |
| Darael | sfstikkun: that's because Edgy is EOL - it's no longer supported | 17:54 |
| abhoriel | hi, Ubuntu seems to not receive keypresses that are too close together on my laptop | 17:54 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : u can use that for backing up ur packages | 17:54 |
| mohan_ | frostburn: thanx :) | 17:54 |
| sfstikkun | Ah, so why is this showing up as a download? | 17:54 |
| abhoriel | anyone know how to fix that? | 17:55 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | someone having problem with transmission too? | 17:55 |
| TeRMX_ | I had to use Unetbootin because my operating system was destroyed. I have no blank disks, nor flash drives. How would I install windows from a partition? | 17:55 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: doesn't dd do all that thing? i mean exact clone? | 17:55 |
| sfstikkun | I don't have edgy any longer | 17:55 |
| abhoriel | it means that if I type quickly, some keystrokes are ignored | 17:55 |
| danhs | frostburn: hey hey hey!!!!!! moving profile to .mozilla.old started it up! | 17:55 |
| danhs | wahoo | 17:55 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : yeah..it surely will | 17:55 |
| TeRMX_ | I'm trying to install OSx86, but I cannot format the Partition because in OSx86 is shows as "FAT32" | 17:55 |
| Dr_Willis | TeRMX_: you would have to check ##windows for that. im not sure its even doable | 17:55 |
| frostburn | danhs, yeah, lost all your settings though =( | 17:55 |
| rski | TeRMX_: what's OSx86 | 17:55 |
| Darael | sfstikkun: well, there's something in your sources.list still pointing to Edgy | 17:55 |
| danhs | wha-!? | 17:55 |
| mdm | stanner: checkinstall will generaly make a package but it can include things like temporary files by mistake. Further installs that also make librairies frequently have problems too. it sort of depends on what it is your are creating a package from. Its general use is instead of make install run checkinstall | 17:55 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: ok.. thanx i gonna backup now !!! | 17:55 |
| TeRMX_ | It's like a demo of Mac for PC basicly. | 17:55 |
| danhs | I can't get em back by moving it back? | 17:55 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : actually, helix is just for that kind of activity... | 17:55 |
| danhs | :-p | 17:56 |
| rski | TeRMX_: sounds like you should ask in #mac | 17:56 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : okay, gud luck | 17:56 |
| TeRMX_ | /dev/sda4 5782 19457 109852470 83 Linux | 17:56 |
| canadaeh | TeRMX_: iDeneb for the win xDD | 17:56 |
| TeRMX_ | I can't mount Windows or anything besides linux to that partition. | 17:56 |
| superboy_ | help http://paste.ubuntu.com/196404/ | 17:56 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: i will experiment with afterwards.. thanx for the info :) | 17:56 |
| danhs | frostburn: I can't get em back by moving it back? | 17:56 |
| stanner | TeRMX_: good luck but your best bet will be to use dd / partimage and then re-arm/reactivate your product key | 17:56 |
| TeRMX_ | I can't edit it in windows, just linux. | 17:56 |
| sfstikkun | Darael, is there a way to figure out what is still pointing to edgy? | 17:56 |
| user___ | ctmjr, it is RV515 PRO Radeon x1300/x1550 series | 17:56 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; did you check it out?? | 17:56 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: hey how to add it to boot menu? | 17:56 |
| frostburn | danhs, you can, but there's something messed up with your user profile | 17:56 |
| TeRMX_ | I just need to format the partition to something other than "Linux" so I can edit it. | 17:56 |
| Dr_Willis | TeRMX_: windows likes to ignore non-windows stuff.. theres always the old windows fdisk command. :) but i much perfer gparted live cd's | 17:56 |
| ANTRat | W | 17:56 |
| TeRMX_ | mohan_ QGrubEditor | 17:57 |
| krishmish | mohan_ : in the meanwhile, i will try to get hold of a link to download the free version | 17:57 |
| Dr_Willis | TeRMX_: delete the partition, remake it, set its type to be vfat. (or fat32) | 17:57 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: ok :) | 17:57 |
| Darael | sfstikkun: if you press alt+f2 and type "gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" you can take a look at the apt sources. If you're on Kubuntu use kdesu instead of gksu | 17:57 |
| canadaeh | dr0pknutz: gparted live cd's are the bomb shizzle. | 17:57 |
| TeRMX_ | mohan_, http://elfrench.iespana.es/qgrubeditor_2.5.0-1_i386.deb | 17:57 |
| danhs | arggh | 17:57 |
| danhs | :-p | 17:57 |
| danhs | frostburn: there's no easy way to at least pull my extensions, bookmarks? | 17:57 |
| mohan_ | TeRMX_: mine is 64bit :( | 17:57 |
| mrglinux | is possible to define list for TV channel mms//... in vlc ??and what program do you suggest ? | 17:57 |
| danhs | basic stuff? | 17:57 |
| * sfstikkun mutters, one would have thought all that stuff would have disappeared when I down loaded the new distros..mutter mutter mutter | 17:58 | |
| Darael | sfstikkun: and also, if you're on kubuntu you'll need to use kate instead of gedit | 17:58 |
| stanner | mdm: so what you are saying is that it is not usually possible to use check install right? | 17:58 |
| TeRMX_ | mohan_, you should be able to install it reguardless. | 17:58 |
| Johnny_5 | anybody here besides me use enlightenment? | 17:58 |
| Darael | sfstikkun: it changes, but not in commented lines, so if you enabled a component since upgrade it'll still point to edgy (I think) | 17:58 |
| sburwood | I have an EEE PC 900. It has Ubuntu 8.10. I had upgraded it to 9.04, though it is still 2.6.27. For a day or two, I can't get it to work. During GRUB, I get a Err 25 | 17:58 |
| raboof | who decides packages should be removed from main and moved to universe? are those decisions documented anywhere? (i'm particularly interested in Jack: i read some rumours here and there, but no definitive reason for the removal) | 17:59 |
| mohan_ | TeRMX_: oh.. ok.. thanx man :) | 17:59 |
| frostburn | danhs, plugins yes, extensions will be harder becauae of the unique profile name under .mozilla/extensions | 17:59 |
| mohan_ | TeRMX_: bye :) | 17:59 |
| sburwood | and it doesn't do anything else | 17:59 |
| TeRMX_ | Good luck. :P | 17:59 |
| mohan_ | Darael : thanx :) | 17:59 |
| shyam_k | hai nebody know how to switch sound cards in ubuntu? | 17:59 |

| krishmish | mohan_: see this...http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/70655841/helix?tab=summary | 17:59 |
| shyam_k | playing around with asoundconf didn't make it | 17:59 |
| stanner | sburwood: you can try doing a fresh install with either easypeasy or UNR | 17:59 |
| sburwood | I can do a live user, but can't install | 17:59 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: oh.. | 17:59 |
| Darael | mohan_: you're welcome, but I dodn't actually do much! | 17:59 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: ok.. | 17:59 |
| TeRMX_ | canadaeh, I'd install iDeneb but I'm too lazy to torrent it. | 17:59 |
| krishmish | mohan_ im not too sure but u can check it out | 18:00 |
| sfstikkun | Thanks Darael...I'll give it a shot. | 18:00 |
| TeRMX_ | mohan_, Do you have msn? If you need any further help, I can help you anytime. | 18:00 |
| frostburn | danhs, bookmarks are stored under .mozilla/firefox/asdfasdf.default/bookmarks.html you might be able to just copy that over as well | 18:00 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: ok.. will download.. | 18:00 |
| mdm | stanner: its posible IF you watch what it does, what it includes and trim it later on if there are issues. I use it frequently to distribute packages to my servers. But I also know that they contain no dependencies and manage them myself | 18:00 |
| sburwood | stanner, I can't start the computer. It stops during GRUB. Unless I connect it to my desktop, it's dead. | 18:00 |
| mohan_ | TeRMX_ : no :( | 18:00 |
| canadaeh | TeRMX_: what osx are you goign to install, Kalyway? or something?? | 18:00 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: Check your sources.list file for consistency -- ie: all jaunty -- run apt-get update and try again. | 18:00 |
| frostburn | sburwood, what's the exact error? | 18:00 |
| TeRMX_ | Kalyway, It worked before, I just want to install it to my 104GB partition instead of my 50GB partition. | 18:00 |
| krishmish | mohan_: this too...http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/22704322/helix?tab=summary | 18:00 |
| TeRMX_ | mohan_, Any Instant Messengers? | 18:00 |
| === jean is now known as Guest77658 | ||
| stanner | sburwood: what do you mean unless you connect it do your desktop? | 18:01 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: I can get the tasksel source package on my workstation without that error. | 18:01 |
| mohan_ | TeRMX_ : not tried Instant Messengers in Ubuntu.. as this is a production system :( | 18:01 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; i dont know why this occured...any idea | 18:01 |
| tv7497 | guys i was setting up a mail server from this http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/ got stuck little bit could you help me ? | 18:01 |
| TeRMX_ | mohan_, I like to help people out, so if you ever need help, you can contact me via email :P | 18:01 |
| sburwood | frostburn. Imagine this ... EEE PC, I turn it on, it starts grub, and stops with a message Err 25 | 18:01 |
| dajhorn | If you have any karmic lines in your sources.list file, then remove them and try again. | 18:02 |
| mohan_ | TeRMX_ : thanx .. will definetly contact u :) | 18:02 |
| sburwood | stanner, I mean that I can only start it through a live user. And then, can't do a fresh install | 18:02 |
| stanner | mdm: I am trying to build this stupid LC-3 sim (for doing assembly) from source. I want to encourage the other linux users to stick to ubuntu rather than boot to windows for this app :-( | 18:02 |
| Oli`` | I've mounted an ISO with the Archive Mounter. I can view it in nautilus but how can access its files from the command line? | 18:02 |
| user___ | ctmjr, OK, I did that. What next? | 18:02 |
| stanner | sburwood: why cant you do a fresh install? | 18:02 |
| om26er | i have downloaded this how to install it http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/u/usb-creator/usb-creator_0.1.16.tar.gz | 18:02 |
| danhs | frostburn: arggh...what a pain in the ass | 18:02 |
| mdm | stanner: then compile it and rather then install run checkinstall | 18:02 |
| ctmjr | user___, type in terminal fglrxinfo | 18:03 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: will download the second one.. | 18:03 |
| sburwood | stanner, because it has a problem setting up a file system | 18:03 |
| stanner | mdm: yeah i did that and the .deb it creatd didnt work | 18:03 |
| frostburn | sburwood, odd,... how did you install it on your eeepc? (1000HE here) | 18:03 |
| sburwood | I've tried resier, jfs, etc | 18:03 |
| mohan_ | krishmish: thanx man.. :) | 18:03 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; check this also please http://paste.ubuntu.com/196456/ | 18:03 |
| JM | what is 'make' (heard it uses the makefile of an object to compile something such as the kernel for example?) | 18:03 |
| stanner | sburwood: then you may just have a bad harddrive. | 18:03 |
| fccf | Oli``: you have to extract the files from the iso into a folder ... then you can access from cli | 18:03 |
| mdm | stanner: without knowing what it is you compiled its difficult to determine he problem | 18:04 |
| sburwood | frostburn, with the usb key | 18:04 |
| Sjord | JM: That's right. The Makefile is a compile script and make executes it. | 18:04 |
| sburwood | 4 GB usb key | 18:04 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: grep -ri karmic /etc/apt | 18:04 |
| stanner | mdm: http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072467509/student_view0/lc-3_simulator.html | 18:04 |
| Darael | Oli``: I'm not sure that the archive mounter mounts it in a "proper" folder. you can mount it from the terminal with -o loop | 18:04 |
| zzz | om26er: You can install that package using apt. You shouldn't need to download the package manually. Try "sudo apt-get install usb-creator" without quotes in a terminal. | 18:04 |
| sburwood | stanner, I have the computer since december | 18:04 |
| bigos | are there any known problem with connecting to the encrypted wifis? i can connect to the unencrypted ones, but not to the secure ones | 18:04 |
| JM | okay so then to compile something you use GCC or G++ (c or c++ correct) | 18:04 |
| user___ | I get "'fglrxinfo' is currently not installed. You install it by typing: apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx | 18:04 |
| stanner | sburwood: i had a brand new harddrive die in 3 days... it sounds like a bad drive if you cant install... | 18:04 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: Pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file and all files in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory. | 18:04 |
| Darael | Oli``: as in "mkdir mountpoint/; sudo mount -o loop /path/to/iso mountpoint/; cd mountpoint" | 18:05 |
| sburwood | stanner, any way to diagnose the hard drive? | 18:05 |
| rescursion | hello room. Setting up VNC. in my xstartup file, if I use gmome-session, do I comment out twm? | 18:05 |
| stanner | sburwood: if you dont care about the data, do a bit for bit wipe. This will make sur that you can wipe each secor of the drive and prove that the whole drive is writeable | 18:05 |
| stanner | sburwood: you can try the ultimat boot cd | 18:05 |
| sburwood | stanner, and I have an 8 GB and 4 GB on SSD | 18:05 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; http://paste.ubuntu.com/196458/ | 18:05 |
| JM | I just want to get somethings straight and see the alternative to windows. | 18:06 |
| Slart | stanner, sburwood: can't badblocks do this? | 18:06 |
| Darael | Oli``: then do your stuff, and when you're done, "cd ~; sudo umount mountpoint/; rm -r mountpoint/" | 18:06 |
| stanner | sburwood: yeah i have a 901 | 18:06 |
| sburwood | stanner, don't have a CD player | 18:06 |
| JM | Compiling C/C++ code you use GCC/G++ correct? | 18:06 |
| bnmrrs | Is it possible to split screen vertically instead of horizontally? | 18:06 |
| frostburn | sburwood, when it boots to grub, hit e and copy out what it says and pastebin it, i tlooks like there's a formatting error in menu.lst ... | 18:06 |
| Sjord | JM: Yes | 18:06 |
| frostburn | at least that's what Err 25 means | 18:06 |
| sburwood | stanner, how do I do a bit by bit? | 18:06 |
| Oli`` | Darael and fccf: no need - just found it was mounted to ~/.gvfs | 18:06 |
| JM | Alright now another question in regards to graphics cards. They need "kernel-source" why is that? | 18:06 |
| stanner | sburwood: well lets take a step back first... which drive is giving you an issue? | 18:07 |
| Darael | Oli``: thanks for the info - I'll probably need to know that! | 18:07 |
| sburwood | both | 18:07 |
| Slart | JM: they probably need the kernel headers.. not the source | 18:07 |
| Sjord | JM: Do graphic cards need kernel source? | 18:07 |
| ctmjr | user___, do ls /usr/share/ati and it should have just one file | 18:07 |
| rescursion | hello room. Setting up VNC. in my xstartup file, if I use gmome-session, do I comment out twm? | 18:07 |
| Sjord | JM: It is probably to compile a kernel module which is the driver for the graphics card. | 18:07 |
| JM | Sometimes when I install a graphics card on OpenSuse for example it will not install correctly unless it has kernel-source | 18:07 |
| stanner | sburwood: you say both but thats not too helpful unfortunately. What can you do on the machine currently? | 18:08 |
| JM | Okay thanks | 18:08 |
| sburwood | stanner, can boot from 4GB usb key | 18:08 |
| frostburn | stanner, he's getting an Err 25, i'm leaning towards a bad grub configuration | 18:08 |
| JM | when compiling a new release of the kernel where is the .config file stored at? People say 'back up your config file' assuming you already know. But I don't :P | 18:09 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: Do this... $ cd /tmp && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get build-dep tasksel && apt-get source tasksel | 18:09 |
| stanner | frostburn: hmm he can just restinall grub from a bootable usb key then... | 18:09 |
| raboof | JM: usually whereever you unpacked the kernel source :) | 18:09 |
| stanner | sburwood: do this boot the computer, but when it says "pres esc..." press esc | 18:09 |
| sburwood | hold on a sec | 18:10 |
| raboof | JM: if you want the .config for a packaged kernel, look in /boot | 18:10 |
| JM | yea but they say 'back up your current' config file where is that found what if you unpack it on your desktop lol | 18:10 |
| Sjord | JM Files starting with a .dot are hidden files. They are not shown in ls unless you use ls -a | 18:10 |
| user___ | I get ATI_LICENSE.TXT drv.list dm.list postun_drv.sh preun_dm.sh and a few others, some in green text | 18:10 |
| fccf | Oli``: news to me ... cool | 18:10 |
| sburwood | now, I'm not even getting an Err 25 message without the key | 18:10 |
| Sjord | JM: Often, the system for configuring the kernel can also load and save config files. | 18:10 |
| JM | Sjord: I know that much but don't know where .config is located :P | 18:10 |
| om26er | how to install ubuntu from usb | 18:10 |
| stanner | sburwood: you should see a menu, with3 options | 18:10 |
| raboof | (weird to make .config a hidden file btw) | 18:10 |
| ctmjr | user___, do you have this file in there fglrx-uninstall.sh | 18:10 |
| user___ | yes | 18:10 |
| fccf | !usb | om26er | 18:10 |
| ubottu | om26er: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 18:10 |
| om26er | in other words how to make bootable usb from fedora | 18:11 |
| rescursion | hello room. Setting up VNC. in my xstartup file, if I use gnome-session, do I comment out twm? | 18:11 |
| sburwood | stanner, I did that and have this ... HDD:SM-ASUS-PHISON OB SSD | 18:11 |
| stanner | mdm: still here? | 18:11 |
| JM | Has anyone had problems w/ ubuntu supporting 2.6.30? | 18:11 |
| sburwood | stanner and the other thing is HDD:SS-ASUS-PHISON SSD | 18:11 |
| Sjord | rescursion: Why do you think you would have to comment out twm? | 18:11 |
| mdm | yes stanner Im looking to see why it does not work, it apears the make install does not actually install anything | 18:12 |
| sburwood | JM, I have problems with 9.04 in general and with 2.6.28 | 18:12 |
| om26er | currently i don't have ubuntu to make usb | 18:12 |
| stanner | sburwood: sorry that brought you to the boot device chooser in the bios. wiat till you see the first grub screen and make sure you can see the menue uptions the stop the count down by either hitting escape or an arrow key | 18:12 |
| fccf | JM: that question is more for #ubuntu+1 - that kernel is not tested yet | 18:12 |
| om26er | i only have fedora installed | 18:12 |
| om26er | fccf | 18:12 |
| stanner | mdm: well it depend on your .configure | 18:12 |
| rescursion | Sjord: I don't know. That's why I'm here. I get errors in the log I'm trying to reduce. | 18:12 |
| om26er | ubottu | 18:12 |
| carbon_monoxide | Greetings all | 18:12 |
| JM | sburwood: I have problems w/ 9.04 on my laptop as well that is why I asked :P | 18:12 |
| fccf | on26er: what are making bootable - ubuntu? | 18:12 |
| Dracofodder | are there any alternatives to using flashplayer? I am getting pretty frustrated with this inability to view simple youtube and hulu videos on my system. have ran the synaptic install for "flashplugin-nonfree" and it has put "adobe-flashplugin" 10.0.22.87-1 in place. This is on an older 32bit system. but I have a fair nvidia FX 5950 card working. | 18:12 |
| om26er | yes ubuntu | 18:12 |
| Sjord | rescursion: Are you setting up a VNC server? | 18:13 |
| stanner | mdm: the readme says it drops the files in the same folder unless you use --useinstalldir with ./configure | 18:13 |
| stanner | mdm: so ./congifure --useinstalldir /opt/lc3tools | 18:13 |
| rescursion | Sjord: Yes, It's up and running. I'm using it now!. :) | 18:13 |
| ctmjr | user___, type this sh ./fglrx-uninstall.sh this will remove the ati proprietary driver which is not working any way | 18:13 |
| stanner | om26er: download unetbootin | 18:13 |
| Sjord | rescursion: I think commenting out twm leaves you without a window manager, which is not desirable. | 18:13 |
| fccf | om26er: if you use dd ... you can take a preconfigured usb image and copy it with dd | 18:14 |
| stanner | om26er: follow the instructions | 18:14 |
| om26er | unetbootin does not work for me | 18:14 |
| ctmjr | user___, you need to put sudo in front sorry | 18:14 |
| om26er | ok | 18:14 |
| rescursion | Sjord: Okay, good. I'll leave it in. Do you know much about VNC? | 18:14 |
| mdm | yes stanner since it uses a non standard way to install programs the checkinstall can not understand how to use it. You would have to rewrite the makefile rule for install for it to work | 18:14 |
| Sjord | rescursion: No. | 18:14 |
| === hello is now known as Guest29684 | ||
| carbon_monoxide | I have a game server and an idle server. I would like to use the idle server to be a medium between players and game server. So that the connection for some players can be faster thru the "idle server". Is that I can configure iptables to do a packet forwarding to do so? | 18:15 |
| user___ | It says "can't open ./fglrx-uninstall.sh" | 18:15 |
| rescursion | Sjord: Alrighy, I'll post my next question then. :) | 18:15 |
| dajhorn | PerryArmstrong: I'm away for lunch. You are stuck until you can download source packages, so keep trying to fix `apt-get source` until it works properly. | 18:15 |
| Sjord | carbon_monoxide: Would that really improve performance? | 18:15 |
| zzz | rescursion: Maybe you should comment out the twm line and replace it with "exec /usr/bin/gnome-session". | 18:15 |
| PerryArmstrong | dajhorn; ya i'll wait...it takes 5 minutes to finish this | 18:16 |
| stanner | mdm: so the Makefile | 18:16 |
| Radtoo | carbon_monoxide: yep, you can do packet forwarding | 18:16 |
| rescursion | Room, in my VNC log, I get this error many many times: Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":1.0". Any idea why? | 18:16 |
| carbon_monoxide | Sjord: I suppose it can because the "idle server" is using another network connection which is better for players in other regions | 18:16 |
| stanner | mdm: also you have to comment out a line | 18:16 |
| rescursion | zzz: Do I need the exec there? | 18:16 |
| stanner | in that file | 18:16 |
| donny | Can anyone explain to me how I can run a script when a user logs off? | 18:16 |
| Radtoo | carbon_monoxide: You can even do it on many levels (all ipv4 / v6 traffic, traffic coming from a certain machine, traffic marked with the right flags, traffic going to a certain port...) | 18:16 |
| stanner | mdm: its in the readme for "debian" based systems | 18:16 |
| ctmjr | user___, try this way sudo sh ./fglrx-uninstall.sh | 18:17 |
| carbon_monoxide | Radtoo: would packet forwarding do that trick if a new connection will be established after the response from game server? it's kinda like active FTP | 18:17 |
| tigerplug | hey guys, | 18:17 |
| danhs | frostburn: I think it's my old extensions | 18:17 |
| tigerplug | can someone help me mount my external NTFS hard drive in 9.04? | 18:17 |
| danhs | one of them is bad | 18:17 |
| zzz | rescursion: It is customary to have the window manager/desktop environment started with an exec line. This way, when you log out, the X session ends. | 18:17 |
| mitm | what ur prob | 18:17 |
| hosified | YAY, still alive!!!! | 18:17 |
| sburwood | my desktop stopped working | 18:17 |
| frostburn | danhs, sounds it | 18:17 |
| hosified | missing a piece of my scalp, but all good! | 18:18 |
| Darael | tigerplug: certainly, what seems to be the problem? | 18:18 |
| danhs | casue when I did a copy and paste dump, it starts starting up (I get a "down them all" intro dialog) but it doesn't fully start | 18:18 |
| mdm | yes stanner I undersand what it does, I changed the makefile by hand and recreated the package. It then worked | 18:18 |
| bigos | is it possible to connect to the wpa encrypted wifi network in linux? | 18:18 |
| stanner | sburwood: did you get to the grub menue | 18:18 |
| sburwood | frostburn, stanner, I had a problem with the desktop | 18:18 |
| danhs | so one of them is ungood | 18:18 |
| ctmjr | user___, sorry just realized we are not in the dir | 18:18 |
| danhs | yea, I think you're right | 18:18 |
| tigerplug | It always auto- mounted but then I unplugged it for the first time, now no matter how many times I restart it wont mount. I've tried mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 but i'm unsure if it is actually "sda1" | 18:18 |
| tigerplug | thanks Darael | 18:18 |
| Radtoo | carbon_monoxide: hemm, sorta, unless you mean the first connection on a certain port needs to go to machine a while the remaining connections on the same port need to go to machine b. | 18:18 |
| rescursion | zzz: oh! good to kknow! I'll fix that now. Thanks! | 18:18 |
| frostburn | sburwood, what problem was that? | 18:18 |
| Darael | bigos: yes - may depend on your distro, but Ubuntu has no issues, normally | 18:18 |
| fccf | bigos: currently wpa support is very limited.. some cards will some just wont | 18:18 |
| danhs | ohhh extensions, un quality controlled useful, free ranging problem sources | 18:18 |
| stanner | mdm: what did you change in the make file? | 18:18 |
| carbon_monoxide | Radtoo: I see, seems iptables can be my option. Thanks! Is there any easy tool which can help me to do this iptables settings which can save me some time before mastering iptables configuration? | 18:18 |
| mitm | did u do a snapshot before it stopped working | 18:18 |
| sebsebseb | hi | 18:19 |
| bigos | Darael: okay, thanks, what about wep then? | 18:19 |
| thiebaude | sebsebseb: yo | 18:19 |
| mdm | stanner: how it actually copied files into the install dir | 18:19 |
| zzz | rescursion: I am guessing that you can also put a while loop so that when you log out, another session would be started. To be honest, I am not very knowledgable about setting up VNC servers either. Just a suggestion. | 18:19 |
| sebsebseb | thiebaude: hi | 18:19 |
| carbon_monoxide | Radtoo: the connections are all on the same game server machine | 18:19 |
| fccf | bigos: wep should be no problem | 18:19 |
| stanner | mdm: i was able to create the deb and install from checkinstall with out doing anythig other than commenting out the line int the Makefile | 18:19 |
| Radtoo | carbon_monoxide: I personally don't like the iptables syntax and use shorewall for more structure, but I'm certain there's even more simple things out there. | 18:19 |
| om26er | how to install a package | 18:19 |
| ctmjr | user___, go into the dir cd /usr/share/ati then try it | 18:19 |
| rescursion | zzz: thanks. That shouldn't be nessassary. | 18:19 |
| user___ | O.K. that worked. | 18:20 |
| sebsebseb | om26er: sudo apt-get install packagename | 18:20 |
| fccf | om26er: what package? | 18:20 |
| Darael | tigerplug: chances are it isn't sda1. Also, if you didn't unmount it before unplugging, you'll have issues. Plus, the type for ntfs filesystems is "ntfs-3g" rather than "vfat" | 18:20 |
| rescursion | Room, in my VNC log, I get this error many many times: Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":1.0". Any idea why? | 18:20 |
| om26er | sebsebseb what if its a bunch of files | 18:20 |
| mdm | stanner: change INSTALL_DIR and take out the comment (looks like a - in make) for the CP, thats all | 18:20 |
| carbon_monoxide | Radtoo: I could only find some tools which can do the simple filtering tricks for me instead of packet forwarding rules | 18:20 |
| sebsebseb | om26er: a tar.gz you mean? | 18:20 |
| om26er | ya | 18:20 |
| Darael | bigos: WEP is even more solid than WPA in most Linux distros. | 18:20 |
| bigos | fccf: what it could be, if it is a problem? it just doesnt connect, says it's "failed". there is no problem, if i remove the encryption. i am sure i am writing the password correct | 18:20 |
| sebsebseb | !tar | om26er | 18:20 |
| ubottu | om26er: Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression | 18:20 |
| om26er | then how to install | 18:21 |
| mitm | while not use tar from terminal instead | 18:21 |
| carbon_monoxide | Radtoo: but anyway, your answers have been really helpful to me. :) Thanks! | 18:21 |
| sebsebseb | om26er: extract it, cd into the directory, ./configure make make install | 18:21 |
| Darael | tigerplug: to find out what its hard drive identifier is, run "sudo fdisk -l" and looki for a drive that seems likely | 18:21 |
| sebsebseb | om26er: someone else can hopefuly give a better description | 18:21 |
| om26er | ok | 18:21 |
| sebsebseb | om26er: what are you trying to install? | 18:21 |
| zzz | rescursion: Have you tried it? Let me know what happens. | 18:21 |
| ctmjr | user___, now run this to get back your gui sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, then reboot | 18:21 |
| om26er | usb creater | 18:22 |
| fccf | bigos: are you using the generated key, (your router does this for you) you shouldn't have a problem w/that | 18:22 |
| Radtoo | carbon_monoxide: Hm. Ye, sorry, I don't know anything simpler/quicker than shorewall (which is really great when you are doing complex stuff, and well-documented, but might just be more than googling for the iptables rule to forward that port). | 18:22 |
| stanner | mdm: not sure what you mean exactly, should i hard code the install dir to /opt/lc3tools ? | 18:22 |
| mitm | cd unzipped dir, then .forward slash install script | 18:22 |
| stanner | mdm: in the Make.def file? | 18:22 |
| sebsebseb | om26er: USB creater??? there's already a built in bootable Ubuntu USB creation | 18:22 |
| rescursion | zzz: I'd have to kill the vnc session and log back in. Let me do that. BRB. | 18:22 |
| sebsebseb | om26er: program | 18:22 |
| om26er | where | 18:23 |
| krishmish | someone got a solution for yahoomail on firefox?? | 18:23 |
| Darael | om26er: system->admin->startup disk creator | 18:23 |
| sebsebseb | om26er: system > administaration > USB startup disk creator | 18:23 |
| krishmish | someone got a solution for yahoomail on firefox please?? | 18:23 |
| bigos | fccf: yes, my router generates 4 keys, i copy the first into a textfield in this fancy plasma widget. but it stills asks me about "connection secrets", and even if i retype it (still right) it doenst connect ("connection failed") | 18:23 |
| Radtoo | krishmish: it can work with thunderbird, but I dunno about firefox | 18:23 |
| sebsebseb | krishmish: what's up with it? | 18:23 |
| kbrosnan | krishmish: what problem? | 18:23 |
| wildc4rd | evening all | 18:24 |
| Radtoo | krishmish: "webmail extension" is the key word there... | 18:24 |
| krishmish | sebsebseb: i can seee the inbox | 18:24 |
| krishmish | sebsebseb: but cant open the messages | 18:24 |
| fccf | bigos: the first question is for the wep key ... the second is your sudo password | 18:24 |
| Darael | om26er: also, the file you downloaded wa the official ubuntu one - if you want to install software that is on the Ubuntu site, use the flippin' package mamager, it's much easier than compiling from a tarball | 18:24 |
| mooseberry | i installed sauerbraten on my computer and its fucking everything up, how can i uninstall all of it? | 18:25 |
| mdm | stanner: no the Makefile, im looking to see why the cp command I rewote failed, I did the first one by hand | 18:25 |
| stanner | mdm: and tha extra - before the CP command, you want me to remove it | 18:25 |
| krishmish | same with orkut, i login, but i cant see the home page | 18:25 |
| krishmish | sebsebseb: same with orkut, i login, but i cant see the home page | 18:25 |
| stanner | well | 18:25 |
| fccf | mooseberry: sudo apt-get remove --purge sauerbraten sauerbraten-data | 18:25 |
| stanner | the make file is only there after you run ./configure | 18:26 |
| joaopinto | !language | mooseberry | 18:26 |

| sobersabre | hi I have this nice screenshot: http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/7185/screenshotbrd.png | 18:26 |
| stanner | mdm: the make file is there only after you run ./configure, its not in the original zip | 18:26 |
| sobersabre | somethign is fishy with my gnome. | 18:26 |
| mdm | stanner: yes I know | 18:26 |
| bigos | fccf: it doesnt ask me about my root password, it the same window again, with "choose wep 64 or 128 bit" etc etc | 18:26 |
| sobersabre | menus, mimetypes and icons, as you can see got fscked up. | 18:26 |
| stanner | mdm: ok sorry | 18:27 |
| user___ | ctmjr, thanks a lot, my desktop is back. I got into this trouble trying to get a tv working from the s-video output alongside a monitor on vga. Any idea what a simple method to achieve that goal might be? Again, thanks for your help. | 18:27 |
| Darael | sobersabre: well, gnomes like fish. Joking aside, what's the problem? | 18:27 |
| fccf | bigos: and you have set a 64 bit or 128 bit in your router? | 18:27 |
| mitm | lol mossberry | 18:27 |
| sobersabre | I don't understand the interdependence of what is running in gnome... can somebody direct me what could have gone wrong ? | 18:27 |
| sobersabre | Darael: have you looked at the screenshot ? | 18:27 |
| bigos | fccf: 64 bit 10 digits | 18:27 |
| Darael | sobersabre: *ahem, yes, sorry about that, I posted before reading the scrollback. That's certainly an... interesting... problem. | 18:28 |
| fccf | bigos: and it doesn't work .... hmmm - what kind of wireless card do you have? | 18:28 |
| === TannerZZZZ is now known as TannerS | ||
| sobersabre | Darael: I would gladly reinstall some packages, if I had an idea which | 18:28 |
| mooseberry | sudo apt-get remove --purge sauerbraten sauerbraten-data | 18:29 |
| mooseberry | oops | 18:29 |
| stanner | TannerS: hi, this is stanner | 18:29 |
| sobersabre | sauerkrauten ? | 18:29 |
| sobersabre | :) | 18:29 |
| mooseberry | it says E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution) | 18:29 |
| bigos | fccf: atheros 5something | 18:29 |
| fccf | mooseberry: you will want to type that into a terminal | 18:29 |
| mooseberry | i did D: | 18:29 |
| fccf | bigos: stand by | 18:29 |
| sobersabre | Darael: do you have any idea what I could reinstall ? it seems even /etc/xdg stuff is in a mess. and I have NO IDEA why. | 18:29 |
| Darael | sobersabre: I'm pretty well stumped. | 18:30 |
| sobersabre | hm. | 18:30 |
| TannerS | lol | 18:30 |
| sobersabre | ok. is there some kind of "ubuntu-help" channel on this server ? | 18:30 |
| sobersabre | (I mean freenode network) | 18:30 |
| tj83_ | sobersabre, this is it. | 18:30 |
| stanner | sobersabre: whats the issue? | 18:31 |
| fccf | bigos: do you have linux-restricted-modules installed.. you may also need madwifi for that card's incryption to work | 18:31 |
| irc-anope_ | Hey everyone | 18:31 |
| sobersabre | stanner: take a look at the screen: | 18:31 |
| sobersabre | http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/7185/screenshotbrd.png | 18:31 |
| irc-anope_ | Does anyone know about apache2 server? | 18:31 |
| sobersabre | stanner: are you ... looking ? | 18:31 |
| mooseberry | i uninstalled what i thought was all of sauerbraten but now i cant 'sudo apt-get remove --purge sauerbraten sauerbraten-data' because it cant find some of the files i deleted? | 18:31 |
| * eduardo away install edubuntu/mythbuntu/kubuntu desktops | 18:31 | |
| sobersabre | irc-anope_: I heard about apache2 server. it's a web server.. | 18:31 |
| soreau | sobersabre: You're trying to fix the red X's? | 18:32 |
| bigos | fccf: i've got both... and the card is working no problem with unencrypted network ... but i dont want to host free internet to for anyone ;/ | 18:32 |
| mitm | sobe, lol.. | 18:32 |
| mitm | apache is local | 18:32 |
| mitm | and u should have known about it | 18:32 |
| stanner | sobersabre: have you tried createing a new user and seeing what hapens when you log in as them? | 18:32 |
| fccf | bigos: that is understandable .. lemme go look at something real quick... I may come up with a solution | 18:32 |
| irc-anope_ | yes sobersabre, i just installed looked the default page that looks nice too but when i tried naming an address it is not working | 18:32 |
| sobersabre | soreau: this is just a part of the problem.... the real problem is that mimetypes are not working, control center doesn't open, the menus are fscked, and maybe some other minor things I can't notice right now.... | 18:32 |
| stanner | sobersabre: i skimmed but thats cause im in class also trying to take nots! damn descrete math | 18:32 |
| mdm | stanner: yes his directives are wrong, change the makefile adding @ to the first line with CP and - to each line below it that it does not have already | 18:32 |
| NewProggie | hello everybody | 18:32 |
| carbon_monoxide | Hi Radtoo, sorry to buzz you again. Is that NAT or packet forwarding? I'm not clear about that. Or they are just the same thing? | 18:33 |
| soreau | bigos: You have to setup the encryption for your router then config ubuntu to connect to it. Where's the problem exactly? | 18:33 |
| bigos | fccf: would unencrypted network with MAC filter be any close to "safe network"? | 18:33 |
| sobersabre | soreau: do you have a panacea ? | 18:33 |
| Mr-Woof | lo | 18:33 |
| stanner | mdm: the Makefile file or the Makefile.def file? | 18:33 |
| sobersabre | stanner: "to take nots" ? you mean "knots" ? I don't know what it means... explain pls. | 18:33 |
| Darael | bigos: stopping people getting in, maybe. stopping them seeing what you do on it, no | 18:33 |
| bigos | soreau: i configure my router and my ubuntu connection without any problem... the problem is that just... doesnt work. keep asking me about keys, even if i type them correctly | 18:33 |
| stanner | sobersabre: notes*** | 18:34 |
| soreau | sobersabre: No, I was just wondering if that's what you were trying to show in the screenshot | 18:34 |
| zzz | sobersabre: I think he is at a lecture or something and trying to take class notes at the same time. | 18:34 |
| mitm | dont use WPA encryptions.... watch out for distros like Bt4 | 18:34 |
| irc-anope_ | anyone if it is possible to name a website hosted on apache2 server something like www.didi.com | 18:34 |
| kevin_ | I live in the boonie so i dont have to worry about my unencrypted network | 18:34 |
| sobersabre | zzz: yep, thanks. | 18:34 |
| NewProggie | trying to get vertical Scrolling working with my "3M Ergonomic Mouse" under Ubuntu 9.04. What do I have to do / How do I have to config hal? Can Somebody help me please? | 18:34 |
| mitm | yes | 18:34 |
| krishmish | is it possible to run symantec endpoint protection manager on a ubuntu machine?? | 18:34 |
| mdm | stanner: Makefile, configure is just part of the autoprovisioning system. Implimented only half way, which is why it fails, the .configure and Makefile.def are output settings for the configure script | 18:34 |
| soreau | bigos: Are you using DHCP or Static I{ fpr te local machine? | 18:34 |
| bigos | Darael: thanks, if i cant get this enryption running i guess ill turn to that | 18:34 |
| soreau | Er.. | 18:34 |
| sobersabre | soreau: what I'm showing is: 1. the main applications menu, is EMPTY, the "Places" is not, the "System" menu has only "Quit..." option. | 18:35 |
| bigos | soreau: dhcp | 18:35 |
| soreau | bigos: Are you using DHCP or Static IP for the local machine?* | 18:35 |
| irc-anope_ | Does anybody have answer? | 18:35 |
| sobersabre | 2. the icons are NOT valid. | 18:35 |
| Darael | bigos: sometimes that's sue to a wireless adaptor problem. If you're using a USB adapter, check if it's overheating | 18:35 |
| mitm | irc-anope, u can host many websites on your local using virtual host.. it can be found in your .conf script.. | 18:35 |
| sobersabre | 3. and I'm adding my words: the mimetypes don't work | 18:35 |
| * kevin_ is glad his ubuntu is working...for the time being.. | 18:35 | |
| mooseberry | im on my first day on ubuntu so i manually uninstalled what i thought was all of sauerbraten but now when i try to 'sudo apt-get remove --purge sauerbraten sauerbraten-data' it cant delete it because it cant find the files i deleted previously? how does that work. | 18:35 |
| soreau | bigos: When I had this problem last time, the dhcp was getting a conflicting address... hmm wait one second. I think I might know what's wrong. This is Jaunty, correct? | 18:35 |
| stanner | mdm: ok | 18:35 |
| bigos | Darael: its laptop wifi card... and the problem is constant i doubt that overheating | 18:35 |
| sobersabre | kevin_: I wish it was the same with me. | 18:35 |
| irc-anope_ | mitm , which means i can name the website anything i want? | 18:35 |
| fccf | bigos: depends on where you live ... MAC filtering would work to keep people from using your network .. but people could still 'sniff' your unencrypted traffic | 18:35 |
| kevin_ | mitm: i hope your not planning any mitm attacks at starbucks.. say no to ettercap.. | 18:36 |
| mitm | irc-anope, just simply virtual host | 18:36 |
| mitm | lol | 18:36 |
| sobersabre | soreau, stanner, by the wall paper you should get the idea I'm on hardy. | 18:36 |
| jrib | mooseberry: can you reinstall and then uninstall using apt? | 18:36 |
| rsr | yay | 18:36 |
| rsr | jaunty running on my macbook | 18:36 |
| NewProggie | trying to get vertical Scrolling working with my "3M Ergonomic Mouse" under Ubuntu 9.04. What do I have to do / How do I have to config hal? Can Somebody help me please? | 18:36 |
| sobersabre | I have an idea... | 18:36 |
| Darael | bigos: huh, no idea then. soreau seems to have one, though | 18:36 |
| kevin_ | rsr: !!! omg macbooks.. drools osx! | 18:36 |
| bigos | soreau: yes it's jaunty ... but im pretty sure its not ip-conflict, because there are only 2 machines in this network, and one of them has static ip | 18:36 |
| sobersabre | I may remove all ubuntu desktop, incl. gnome-desktop-environment. | 18:36 |
| mitm | irc-nope, yes... but u can only access them from your local network | 18:36 |
| stanner | mdm: so i ran ./configure --useinstalldir /opt/lc3tools | 18:36 |
| sobersabre | with --purge thing... | 18:36 |
| yannick | lol | 18:36 |
| superboy_ | how do i make ubuntu studio iso to boot from a usb drive? | 18:36 |
| sobersabre | maybe this would work... | 18:36 |
| irc-anope_ | mitm i see the virtual host option i think i can do it | 18:37 |
| sobersabre | but this brings me into the downtime | 18:37 |
| sobersabre | fsck!!!! | 18:37 |
| Darael | superboy_: use a live usb creator with the ubuntu-studio iso | 18:37 |
| mitm | lol... man in the middle | 18:37 |
| mdm | no useinstall dir just install dir, for that matter just run configure then edit the output Makefile | 18:37 |
| irc-anope_ | mitm is it posible to name the virtual host www.eee.com | 18:37 |
| rsr | kevin_ you mean you like that gay os? | 18:37 |
| mooseberry | jrib: when i tried to re install i get the same or similar error: 'The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 18:37 |
| mooseberry | sauerbraten: Depends: sauerbraten-data (>= 0.0.20080620-1) but it is not going to be installed' | 18:37 |
| soreau | bigos: Ok, it's probably routing rules then. Try this: After configing the router and ubuntu to connect, run these commends: | 18:37 |
| sobersabre | ubuntu-studio comes with realtime kernel. | 18:37 |
| mitm | yea it easy | 18:37 |
| superboy_ | where do i get the live usb creator from? | 18:37 |
| sobersabre | on some systems it simply gets stuck. | 18:37 |
| kevin_ | rsr: osx is the best operating system lol imo, so easy to install kexts | 18:37 |
| sobersabre | I like! | 18:37 |
| sobersabre | :) | 18:37 |
| mitm | bt4 is no gay os though | 18:37 |
| mitm | lol | 18:37 |
| Darael | superboy_: if you've got an existing Ubuntu isntall use the one under system->administration, otherwise try UNetbootin | 18:38 |
| rsr | kevin_ well , you can keep it cuz I just removed it entirely | 18:38 |
| jrib | mooseberry: and when you attempt to install the -data package? | 18:38 |
| sobersabre | what's bt4 ? | 18:38 |
| rsr | I hate proprietary systems | 18:38 |
| irc-anope_ | hey whats is gay? | 18:38 |
| rsr | no matter how shiny | 18:38 |
| jrib | mitm: please don't use the work "gay" in that sense | 18:38 |
| kevin_ | rsr: NO!! lol.. once tehre is stable wireless drivers for my hackintosh im wiping my windws7 off | 18:38 |
| jrib | word even | 18:38 |
| sobersabre | gay is "happy". it's a SAD system. because it's proprietary. | 18:38 |
| mitm | yes and also make a virtual directory that will point to that dir when u call on www.eee.com on your web browser | 18:38 |
| billybigrigger | anyone here able to get message filters working correctly in thunderbird? | 18:38 |
| soreau | bigos: sudo iptables -F; sudo iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT; sudo iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT; sudo iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT | 18:39 |
| sobersabre | billybigrigger: I have. | 18:39 |
| billybigrigger | sobersabre::: are you a part of any mailing lists? | 18:39 |
| soreau | bigos: That command should delete any conflicting rule and allow access to your router | 18:39 |
| rsr | kevin_ : OMG I guess you dont use opened systems for freedom then... I guess you dont even care if businesses are depriving you of basic user freedoms | 18:39 |
| fccf | bigos: you may want to look at this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=798485 | 18:39 |
| stanner | sobersabre: did you try createing a new user... it could just be your user profile that is messed up. If you make a new user and log in, all the defaults will be used. also, you can try before you log in to change your session to a failsafe gnome one | 18:39 |
| irc-anope_ | mitm is it only on my web browser.. Can i access the website from other computers outside my network? | 18:39 |
| billybigrigger | sobersabre::: i can't get my ubuntu mailing lists messages to move to a different folder | 18:39 |

| kevin_ | rsr: lmao, i guess thats all the reason for you to "Buy" a macbook.. you know so you can just wipe of osx that you payed 2g for.. | 18:40 |
| jrib | mooseberry: your partition is full | 18:40 |
| soreau | bigos: Also, if you want to be secure, use WPA without TKIP and a very long and complicated key. WEP is almost useless. SOmeone could hack it in under 5 minutes | 18:40 |
| stanner | sobersabre: why not just reinstall? | 18:40 |
| sobersabre | billybigrigger: you need to filter by source. | 18:40 |
| sobersabre | stanner: the whole system ? | 18:40 |
| rsr | kevin_ yup...use a good hardware without a restricting os | 18:40 |
| zgmf-x42s | hey all. anyone know of a way to consolidate the two task bars into one, on the bottom. like kde, but on one bar length height. can anyone help?? | 18:40 |
| rsr | kevin_ just like linux | 18:40 |
| mitm | no | 18:40 |
| rsr | oops | 18:40 |
| rsr | linus | 18:40 |
| stanner | sobersabre: i mean it takes what 5-10 minuts to boot the cd another 30 for the actual install and then a few hours of tweaking/app install | 18:41 |
| cambazz | hello. how do I figure out which version of ubuntu I have (i am in a remote server) | 18:41 |
| bigos | soreau: i know about that... but its still better than unencrypted network | 18:41 |
| jrib | !version | cambazz | 18:41 |
| ubottu | cambazz: 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> » | 18:41 |
| rski | cambazz: lsb_release -a | 18:41 |
| stanner | sobersabre: i mean thats what i used to do when ever i ran an install off a cliff | 18:41 |
| sobersabre | stanner: you mean the whole day is dead. | 18:41 |
| irc-anope_ | mitm just on my network? | 18:41 |
| mitm | irc-nope, if u want to access it on an external ip or ISP, you have to make it live from your firewall... | 18:41 |
| stanner | sobersabre: some times it was easier than fixing what was wrong | 18:41 |
| sobersabre | stanner: it's not a causal behaviour. | 18:41 |
| cambazz | thank you rski and jrib | 18:41 |
| rsr | kevin_ I dont pay to be restricted, I pay for the hardware | 18:41 |
| soreau | zgmf-x42s: In gnome, I usually delete one of the panels and add the features of it to the other remaining panel Not sure how it works in kde though | 18:41 |
| Darael | zgmf-x42s: easy. first, right-click each thing on the top panel and unlock it, then middle-click and drag it to the other panel | 18:41 |
| stanner | sobersabre: reinstalling? | 18:41 |
| mitm | yes... unless u plan in hosting yourself, u need to make it liveon the internet | 18:41 |
| stanner | sobersabre: of course it is | 18:41 |
| decipherstatic | is anyone having problems with the ubuntu keyserver timing out? | 18:41 |
| bigos | soreau: these command didnt help ;/ im gonna browse these threads you gave me | 18:42 |
| dj_segfault | cambazz: cat /etc/issue should work with any distro of Linux | 18:42 |
| sobersabre | reinstalling without trying to understand why it happened. | 18:42 |
| irc-anope_ | mtim , it means it is possible right? it can be done one way or the other? | 18:42 |
| sobersabre | you can't learn anything from this.... | 18:42 |
| kevin_ | rsr: the hardware of a alienware that was 2g or say a sager is no way better than a macbook.. you dont deserve a macbook lol.. | 18:42 |
| sobersabre | billybigrigger: so... did you get my last message ? | 18:42 |
| Darael | zgmf-x42s: if you want a smaller meu, there's one in the "gome menu" panel applet (right-click->add to panel...) | 18:42 |
| cambazz | well it seems i have 8.10. my development machine is 9.04. and I am using imagemagick. it seems that the imagemagick version is older in the remote server. how can i upgrade only and only imagemagick in my remote server? | 18:42 |
| stanner | sobersabre: well what was the last thing you did befor you broke it? dont do that. lesson learnned ;-P | 18:42 |
| kevin_ | rsr: your not using your macbook right, you are buying the os when you buy mac.. not the hardware | 18:42 |
| soreau | bigos: I didn't give you any threads. the other thing I had to do to connect was fakeauth to the router. But that requires aircrack-ng to be installed | 18:42 |
| stanner | sobersabre: all joking aside, have you checked your log files yet? | 18:42 |
| slipttees | !vnc | 18:43 |
| zgmf-x42s | Darael: how is it that i unlock it?? | 18:43 |
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 18:43 |
| rsr | kevin_ exacttly the oposite... im buying the hardware not the os | 18:43 |
| mitm | it can, irc-nope | 18:43 |
| Darael | right-click, it's at the bottom of the menu | 18:43 |
| irc-anope_ | i love you man | 18:43 |
| stanner | mdm: ok which cp command are you talking about in the make file? like what line? | 18:43 |
| Slart | cambazz: download the package directly from packages.ubuntu.com and hope it doesn't depend on lots of newer stuff | 18:43 |

| jrib | mooseberry: do you understand? | 18:43 |
| slipttees | thanks ubottu | 18:43 |
| billybigrigger | sobersabre::: ill give it a try | 18:43 |
| sobersabre | stanner: I don't see anything weird there... | 18:43 |
| kevin_ | rsr: well you definitly didnt make a wise investment, next time buy a sager if you want performance hardware.. | 18:43 |
| stanner | sobersabre: whats the link to the screen shot you had earlier? | 18:44 |
| billybigrigger | sobersabre::: i dont have a source | 18:44 |
| sobersabre | billybigrigger: not all the mailing lists set List-* related fields inside the emails. | 18:44 |
| sobersabre | billybigrigger: what da fsck are you talking about ? | 18:44 |
| zgmf-x42s | Darael: the last option i have is about panels./ this is 9.04 netbook bremix btw | 18:44 |
| sobersabre | do you want to create a rule on "if it is any mailing list" trigger ? | 18:44 |
| soreau | bigos: Well, I might be able to help you but we'd need to go to a more appropriate channel like #madwifi or #aircrack-ng | 18:44 |
| mdm | stanner: a Makefile is a directive for the source compiler. They are lines of macros, specifically you want the install macro, look for install: | 18:44 |
| Darael | zgmf-x42s: oh, it's UNR? I don't know then, sorry. | 18:44 |
| billybigrigger | sobersabre::: in thunderbird's message filters, there is nothing to select a source, its either Subject, From, To, Sender, and the sender is different every time | 18:45 |
| rsr | kevin_ I surely didnt... I was lured by the shiny hardware, although I cant be lured by shiny restrictive software for long.... Im just to aquariam | 18:45 |
| stanner | mdm: ok got that | 18:45 |
| bigos | soreau: which one, then? | 18:45 |
| sobersabre | billybigrigger: what's the source of an email ? | 18:45 |
| sobersabre | :) | 18:45 |
| sobersabre | the "From:" address. | 18:45 |
| Darael | rsr: too much like a large fishtank? | 18:45 |
| zgmf-x42s | Darael: dang... the type of install that the info for that s more critical than a normal install | 18:45 |
| zgmf-x42s | argh | 18:45 |
| rsr | kevin_ If I could o back in time I would surely buy a dell notebook | 18:45 |
| soreau | bigos: Meet me in #aircrack-ng | 18:45 |
| rsr | Darael Indeed | 18:45 |
| Darael | zgmf-x42s: _someone_ must know! | 18:45 |

| rsr | Darael Like a big fishtank full of gold and things | 18:46 |
| rsr | Darael But it aint the ocean | 18:46 |
| sobersabre | billybigrigger: what I meant was that you will have to add 1 rule per each mailing list. | 18:46 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about vino | 18:46 |
| btipling | hrm | 18:46 |

| stanner | mdm: sorry i dont have much experience with this kind of stuff actually, thats why i am asking for explicit instructions | 18:47 |
| billybigrigger | sobersabre::: i would be happy with everything that ended in lists.ubuntu.com go to Mailing List folder, since the one's im aren't that active | 18:48 |
| rsr | kevin_ Like I said... I dont use restrictive software, and like you said, for the hardware im better off without a macbook | 18:48 |
| billybigrigger | sobersabre::: adding From ends with *lists.ubuntu.com doesn't filter | 18:48 |
| sobersabre | billybigrigger: you may then add a From: contains lists.ubuntu.com | 18:48 |
| zgmf-x42s | anyone T ll running tht version?? help would be awesome | 18:48 |
| mdm | stanner: like this http://www.pastebin.ca/1461278 | 18:48 |
| rsr | kevin_ There is absolutely nothing you would accomplish on macos that I wouldnt in any freedom respecting system | 18:49 |
| Darael | billybigrigger: try filtering TO ends with *.lists.ubuntu.com | 18:49 |
| sobersabre | and make sure you're choosing the correct mailbox folder for this filter ("Filters for:" field) | 18:49 |
| billybigrigger | Darael::: To is the creater's email address | 18:49 |
| stanner | mdm: so we just want an @ infront of all lines for the install directive? | 18:49 |
| rsr | kevin_ on the other hand... I know a couple of things I can accomplish on a free system that you cant on even the best proprietary one | 18:49 |

| rsr | fun while it lasted | 18:50 |
| sobersabre | but I don't think there should be inoperable filters in tb 2.* | 18:50 |
| Darael | billybigrigger: certainly for me, stuff from mailing lists is from the creator and to the list address | 18:50 |
| stanner | mdm: yes i saw, but is that the only change that needs to happen? | 18:50 |
| stanner | mdm: or does it need tto look like this: http://www.pastebin.ca/1461281 | 18:51 |

| stanner | ok | 18:51 |
| richardm | hey guys i just installed 8:10 and its dropping me to a "initramfs" prompt saying something about a UUID error ? | 18:51 |
| kevin_ | rsr: you comin to offtopic? | 18:51 |
| mdm | stanner: make it like the one I posted, not the one you did | 18:51 |
| stanner | mdm: ok | 18:51 |
| stanner | mdm: now i can use make && sudo checkinnstall? | 18:52 |
| rsr | sure | 18:52 |
| Radtoo | richardm: I'm not up to speed with what this might currently be caused by, but UUID error means the installer might have mis-detected the hard disk drive's unique id. You can probably still boot it if you input the correct UUID or write the drive letter in the boot menu. | 18:52 |
| billybigrigger | Darael::: not working that way here | 18:52 |
| mib_ntu1o2 | tj83_: extremely sorry to disturb you, but are you the TJ who was discussing this bug --> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/devmapper/+bug/358654/+activity ? About the boot dropping to initramfs shell and not recognising hd? | 18:53 |

| saiki | how do you make a mic non-exclusive to individual programs? (note, I'm using my webcam as a mic) | 18:54 |
| Radtoo | richardm: Like, when the boot manager starts, hit "e" to edit the boot entry and try /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda3 instead of the whole UUID:bla-bla-bla-bla thing. Best hint I can give without looking things up right now. | 18:54 |
| Darael | billybigrigger: strange... I shouldn't think it's the difference between Evo and TB. It doesn't really make sense for someone's post to the list to have a "to" address of themself - how would it get to the list? | 18:54 |
| richardm | Radtoo, so you think i just try and reconfigure via the grub commands? | 18:54 |
| stanner | mdm: what does the @ do to the file? | 18:54 |

| stuckey | Hello | 18:55 |
| stuckey | I'm trying to install Ubuntu but the partition editor isn't finding any free space on my disk | 18:55 |
| billybigrigger | sobersabre::: http://imagebin.ca/view/4733GX6.html | 18:55 |
| billybigrigger | stuckey::: what kind of partition? | 18:55 |
| sebsebseb | stuckey: what is currently on the disk? | 18:55 |
| stuckey | I have another operating system installed, with an LVM, which is eating up all of the space (I think) | 18:55 |
| mitm | where did u place the script, the path I mean | 18:55 |
| Radtoo | richardm: Yep. Its worth trying, unless you know that the installation might just not have completed sucessfully its also likely to work. | 18:55 |
| billybigrigger | stuckey::: if your doing a multi-boot, you should make the 2 partitions seperate first... | 18:55 |
| billybigrigger | stuckey::: then install your os's | 18:56 |
| stuckey | billybigrigger: Yeah but I've already filled everything up with the LVM | 18:56 |
| stuckey | So I'm asking what my options are here... do I have to try to resize this or? | 18:56 |
| stuckey | Can I install ubuntu in an LVM... that's what I really need to do. | 18:56 |
| saiki | how do you make a mic non-exclusive to individual programs? (note, I'm using my webcam as a mic) | 18:56 |
| stuckey | I'm sure it's possible, to install ubuntu in an LV, but I'm not sure how to do it. | 18:56 |
| Darael | stuckey: yes, either you must resize what's on there aalready or use another disk | 18:56 |

| stanner | mdm: then i edited the make file commenting out the one line with the lcurses and adding the @ to the install directive | 18:59 |
| mdm | yes stanner basily in that usuage a @ means execute this outside the script | 18:59 |
| stanner | mdm: then i used sudo checkinstall and it installed it to /opt/lc3tools/ | 18:59 |
| saiki | !emerald | 18:59 |
| ubottu | 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. | 18:59 |
| Radtoo | stanner: if you can resize the partitions INSIDE the lvm, or have free space INSIDE the lvm, then its possible | 19:00 |
| mdm | yes stanner | 19:00 |
| stanner | mdm: the resulting lc3tools*.deb should be installable on another system | 19:00 |

| stuckey | Radtoo: yep | 19:03 |
| stanner | mdm: that tells me what files will end up where? | 19:03 |

| Radtoo | Bram_P: check out the official firefox addon page over at addons.mozilla.org. Pick one of the video downloading plugins, and read its instructions. Its real easy. After you downloaded the youtube vid, like any media player can be used to play it. | 19:09 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu supports the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and provides mail server software of many kinds. You can install a basic email handling configuration with the "Mail server" task during installation, or with the "tasksel" command.

| dajhorn | ivantis: If you use the task, then you get postfix and dovecot. | 19:18 |
| uccadmin | dajhorn: I have been able to do it that way. Do you know of any way to place it below "About Gnome" and "About Ubuntu"? | 19:18 |
| dajhorn | ivantis: Exim is also in main. | 19:18 |
| Radtoo | Dominik: And as far as I know, its a developer technology for now anyways. If you would not be able to install this on any release with a bash script (even if the .deb was broken somehow), I'm not sure you'll get any use of it. | 19:19 |

| Slart | jrick|mschat, Comisaurus_Rex: I'm not kidding.. your client adds a lot of extra text around messages and such.. it's quite annoying.. get another one or configure it to stop using it's special features | 19:56 |

| |Ryan | Hello, I need help with Ubuntu 9.04. My internet has stopped working, although the connection is fine because I'm using it now but on windows. AND it says I'm connected to the network. I've try resinstalling everything related to the drivers for my network card and I've also completely rebooted Ubuntu and tried again - same problem. Any ideas? | 19:58 |
| Whitor | dajhorn, MAC addresses are a fixed legnth. Vmware can't add a prefix | 19:58 |
| jillian | would shockwave or another flash player be interfering? | 19:59 |
| blizzkid | sebsebseb: unfortunately not | 19:59 |
| sebsebseb | !flash | jillian | 19:59 |
| ubottu | jillian: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 19:59 |
| Slart | blizzkid: I'm guessing your data isn't gone for good.. but you might want to ask in a mint support channel for specific help on how to set it up | 19:59 |
| sebsebseb | blizzkid: did you use the Ubuntu encryption? on the alternate CD? | 19:59 |
| dajhorn | Whitor: VMware forces the first two or three bytes of a virtual mac address. Only the least significant bytes of a virtual mac can be changed through the vmx. | 19:59 |
| blizzkid | sebsebseb: yes | 19:59 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | (#G010E010M1) |Ryan, does ifconfig do anything? | 19:59 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | (#G010E010M1) Type ifconfig in a terminal window | 20:00 |
| sebsebseb | blizzkid: ok I think you need Ubuntu to unencrypt it then | 20:00 |
| sebsebseb | blizzkid: ,but I haven't used partition encryption | 20:00 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | (#G010E010M1) That should show you your network devices | 20:00 |

| balloooza | just put the module on a line? | 20:07 |
| Slart | balloooza: yup | 20:07 |
| dajhorn | donny: If they're logging in through gdm, then I dunno. Gnome has a "Startup Applications" panel, so perhaps there is an opposite. | 20:07 |

| sebsebseb | Vladimir[LV]: that's no longer made as well, Beryl forked itself back into Compiz. Beryl was a fork of Compiz | 20:07 |
| dajhorn | donny: What particularly do you want to run? | 20:07 |

| ubottu | Vladimir[LV]: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz | 20:07 |
| Slart | balloooza: there are probably lots of modules there already.. so just add a line at the end.. make a comment why you did it and todays date.. makes it easier when you've forgotten who blacklisted it later on | 20:07 |
| donny | dajhorn: I need to check to see if a file exists, and delete it if it does | 20:07 |

| sebsebseb | jillian: for what? | 20:08 |
| jillian | adobe flash | 20:08 |
| dajhorn | donny: Look in the gdm documentation and see if /etc/X11/gdm/PostSession/ does what you want. | 20:08 |
| sebsebseb | kev_zhong: if you do a dynamically expanding hard disk, you could put 2TB even though your psyical hard disk isn't I assume | 20:08 |
| sebsebseb | kev_zhong: if you do dynamically expanding the size you put, is just the size the vm thinks it has | 20:09 |
| kev_zhong | I see, | 20:09 |
| donny | dajhorn: It does, but unfortunately it seems the client I'm using to connect doesn't use that when it logs the user off | 20:09 |
| dajhorn | donny: Typo, on Ubuntu check /etc/gdm/PostSession | 20:09 |

| kev_zhong | ok | 20:09 |

| sebsebseb | kev_zhong: as for what is swap well, not that important unless going to try and hibernate, or don't have enough RAM. so if 256MB RAM probably a good idea to have swap, if 512MB probably ok without. and I ran on 1GB without SWAP quite well before | 20:13 |
| dajhorn | ||arifaX: Check whether the read-edid package does what you want. | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | !swap | kev_zhong | 20:13 |
| ubottu | kev_zhong: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 20:13 |

| om26er1 | then install xubuntu as i did today | 20:18 |
| sebsebseb | kev_zhong: yep thought that's what you were refering to as well, but they work in Wine depending on the game, some need configuring, others work well | 20:18 |
| Halitech | ||arifaX, its probably ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics | 20:18 |
| sebsebseb | kev_zhong: also there are good native Linux games out there | 20:19 |
| dsboy | Keyring Password How delet How fix WHO KNOW PM PLEASE | 20:19 |
| kev_zhong | i know, but some games are just a pain in the rear end to work, and Im still a novice, something I don't quite understand yet when it comes to wine | 20:19 |
| ||arifaX | Halitech: http://pastebin.com/m6c920784 but I don't have problems with it. I just want to determine my displays max resolution by command line | 20:19 |
| Suissinho | hey, i have a big problem, my hard disk from desktop on ubuntu+windowsxp fails, problem grub error21, how to resolve this? | 20:19 |

| Slart | dsboy: will you stop spamming the channel.. | 20:20 |
| kev_zhong | I was hoping America's Army would release a new version with its new AA3, but i dont think thats going to happen | 20:20 |
| dsboy | nobody helps | 20:20 |
| om26er1 | for netbook xubuntu is better | 20:20 |
| yellouw | can someone tell a way to show the desktop icons with ubuntu-netbook-desktop-mode ? ? ? ? ? | 20:20 |
| Halitech | ||arifaX, I know you do but I don't know if there is anyway so was going to see what the card specs say | 20:20 |
| Slart | dsboy: and stop using caps.. people are probably ignoring you because you repeat your question every 60 seconds.. just like I told you not to do yesterday | 20:20 |
| ||arifaX | Suissinho: try spinrite (not free) to fix drive errors (hardware) | 20:20 |
| dsboy | k | 20:20 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | EmanSaad, are you using network manager to manage your network? | 20:20 |
| sebsebseb | kev_zhong: and propritary software of any kind including games, restrict peoples freedoms and lock them in, http://www.gnu.org then go to philosphey section and check out the articles in about free software section, for more details | 20:20 |
| ^Phantom^ | Hi. Is there any way to get Windows Live Messenger on Ubuntu? | 20:20 |
| yellouw | can someone tell a way to show the desktop icons with ubuntu-netbook-desktop-mode ? ? ? ? ? | 20:20 |
| ^Phantom^ | like, the actual client? | 20:20 |
| Halitech | dsboy, maybe because you keep posting the same question every 2 minutes and we don't have an answer for you right now | 20:20 |
| dsboy | Its my damn capslook | 20:20 |
| ||arifaX | Halitech: Could udevinfo help? | 20:21 |
| Sjord | ^Phantom^: No, but you can use alternatives, like Pidgin. | 20:21 |
| soreau | ! grub | Suissinho | 20:21 |
| ubottu | Suissinho: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 20:21 |
| ^Phantom^ | okay, thank you. i'll look into it | 20:21 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | ^Phantom^: you can possibly use it with wine, however, there's no guarantee it'll work all the time | 20:21 |
| ^Phantom^ | :) | 20:21 |
| Slart | dsboy: don't blame your keyboard.. | 20:21 |
| Halitech | ||arifaX, it might | 20:21 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | if you want somethig closer, try aMSN or emesene | 20:21 |
| sebsebseb | ^Phantom^: Windows Live Messenger 8 can work in Wine quite well now, but that program is not that good anyway, and there are reasonable alternatives these days | 20:21 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | Those are two very good clients. | 20:21 |
| dajhorn | Suissinho: Most grub errors can be fixed by reinstalling grub. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 20:21 |
| Slart | dsboy: repeat once every 15 minutes or so.. use the time to google and search the forums | 20:21 |
| sebsebseb | ^Phantom^: what that guy said, but also check out Kmess and Mercury Messenger a Java app made by one guy, which is not in the repo | 20:21 |
| om26er1 | sebsebseb name any alternative except pidgin | 20:22 |
| sebsebseb | om26er1: see above | 20:22 |

| Zimm3r | I installed ubuntu using wubi (9.04) and was wondering how I can make it look like Xubuntu 7.04, I installed XFCE but it still does not look the same, what else is different between Ubuntu and Xubuntu that I missed? | 20:23 |
| kev_zhong | thank sebsebseb | 20:23 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | (#G010E010M1) seb³, so do emesene and aMSN | 20:23 |
| sebsebseb | kev_zhong: np | 20:23 |
| sebsebseb | Zimm3r: Oh no Wubi! | 20:23 |
| Zimm3r | What what | 20:23 |
| Halitech | Zimm3r, there were alot of changes between 7.04 and 9.04 so may have to do a lot of manual configuration to get it the same | 20:23 |
| Zimm3r | Ok | 20:23 |
| peabody | ok so I have a raid-1 array, and I wiped my / (different partition) | 20:23 |
| sebsebseb | Zimm3r: Wubi can go bad, and using real partitions is much better :) | 20:24 |
| kev_zhong | well, I'll see if I give virtualbox and try, so how the games workout and all, and if not, dual-booting it is >:] | 20:24 |

| yellouw | can someone tell a way to show the desktop icons with ubuntu-netbook-desktop-mode ? ? ? ? ? | 20:24 |
| peabody | and for the life of me I can't remember the damn command to rebuild the array | 20:24 |
| sebsebseb | kev_zhong: which games? | 20:24 |
| Slart | RandomUser: it's some credit thing to amd for coming up with the first consumer chip for 64bit.. iirc.. how much memory do you have? | 20:24 |
| natschil | RandomUser: if you have a 64 bit processor you can use the 64 bit version | 20:24 |
| guntbert | !repeat | yellouw | 20:24 |
| ubottu | yellouw: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 20:24 |
| om26er1 | yellouw: this is my advice install xubuntu | 20:24 |
| kev_zhong | Call of Duty 4, Conquer 2.0, Crossfire, | 20:24 |
| Slart | RandomUser: both intel and amd is supported by amd64 | 20:24 |

| kev_zhong | those are the main ones I play | 20:24 |
| RandomUser | slart 4GB. I want to use it all | 20:24 |
| dajhorn | yellouw: You can't except by opening the Desktop folder in Nautilus. | 20:24 |
| peabody | when I try using the old mdadm.conf file, and use mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 it says there are no devices | 20:24 |
| tag | As in, not statically punch in the ip address | 20:24 |
| Sjord | tag no | 20:24 |
| Slart | RandomUser: then go with 64bit | 20:24 |
| tag | weak | 20:25 |
| RandomUser | I always thought amd64 meant for amd cpu only. | 20:25 |
| sebsebseb | om26er1: dosan't seem like it :( ,but then again Yahoo well I used to be loyal untill... pm if interested | 20:25 |
| natschil | RandomUser: I think AMD started with 64 bit, so that's why it was originally amd64... | 20:25 |
| yellouw | dajhorn: yes, it seems to be so. but is there really no other way? i cant be that hard | 20:25 |
| RandomUser | so download amd64bit and install on intel? | 20:25 |
| natschil | RandomUser: yes | 20:25 |
| RandomUser | they should change it | 20:25 |
| Slart | RandomUser: yes | 20:25 |
| Slart | !amd64 | 20:25 |
| ubottu | AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/3jkole and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64 for more information. | 20:25 |
| peabody | Slart, Intel had the first 64 bit processor | 20:25 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | (#G010E010M1) !ppc | 20:25 |
| dajhorn | yellouw: Past that, you can disable the new shell. Look for an icon under System -> Preferences or System -> Administration. | 20:25 |
| Slart | peabody: yes.. that's why I added the small "consumer" part =) | 20:26 |
| Comisaurus_Rex | !ppc | 20:26 |
| peabody | AMD's was teh first x64 with x86 compatible instruction set | 20:26 |
| ubottu | PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 20:26 |
| dajhorn | yellouw: But then you'll be back to the regular Gnome desktop. | 20:26 |
| natschil | RandomUser: I think you can use up to 4 GB of memory with 32 bit as well though... | 20:26 |
| yellouw | dajhorn: yes, thats my problem :-( | 20:26 |
| peabody | and it's amd64 because intel and amd both created independent instruction sets | 20:26 |
| RandomUser | nat 3.75 iirc | 20:26 |
| peabody | intel's is known as IA64 | 20:26 |
| kev_zhong | sebsebseb: so far those games I haven't found a way of playing them, so thats why | 20:26 |
| peabody | but I digress | 20:26 |
| Slart | peabody: ah.. so that was the story.. I remember reading about it but I guess I forgot the specifics | 20:26 |
| sebsebseb | kev_zhong: which games? | 20:27 |
| Slart | peabody: thanks | 20:27 |
| peabody | what's important here is that I can rebuild my array ;) | 20:27 |
| peabody | when I try using the old mdadm.conf file, and use mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 it says there are no devices | 20:27 |

| rom1v | hi | 20:34 |
| Halitech | |Ryan, wireless, wired? have you checked the IP address? | 20:34 |
| Killaklown | anyone here using a mac or used a mac? | 20:34 |
| rom1v | why sometimes autocompletion of apt-get propose unavailable packets | 20:34 |
| rom1v | for example : sudo apt-get install tru<tab> proposes truecrypt | 20:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | ryanprior, 800x600 is VESA's resolution, i don't think it can be changed. good luck. | 20:34 |
| |Ryan | Yes, I've tried wired AND wireless - says I'm connected, but nothing internet-based (IRC, browsers, IM) works. | 20:35 |
| rom1v | but if I install, it says "the packet is missing but exists in the database…" | 20:35 |
| Halitech | |Ryan, what do you get for an IP address? | 20:35 |
| rom1v | but I never removed any software sources in sources.list, so I don't understand why… | 20:35 |
| |Ryan | 192.168.2.1 | 20:35 |
| |Ryan | or 192.168.2.2 | 20:35 |
| |Ryan | I forget | 20:35 |
| ryanprior | Well, what I've been trying is to get fglrx working on my (newly unsupported) Radeon 200m card. It's worked fine in every Ubuntu up to the latest. | 20:35 |
| dajhorn | rom1v: Run `apt-get clean && apt-get update` and check whether you get the same behavior. | 20:36 |
| ryanprior | Is there any way I can force jockey-gtk (restricted drivers manager) to install the restricted driver for me? | 20:36 |
| mezquitale | !nvidia | 20:36 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 20:36 |
| dajhorn | rom1v: Sometimes source packages will be returned by a query, but you can't install a source package. | 20:36 |
| Paddy_EIRE | rom1v: apt-get is behaving just like it should.. try pressing tab again after trucrypt comes up to see the actual list of available packages ;) | 20:37 |
| rom1v | Paddy_EIRE, yes, but try sudo apt-get install truecrypt | 20:37 |
| Halitech | |Ryan, can you ping the router? | 20:37 |
| |Ryan | Halitech: How? | 20:37 |
| rom1v | dajhorn, same behavior | 20:37 |
| rom1v | after clean / update | 20:37 |
| wheatthin | lol | 20:37 |
| wheatthin | open up a console and typing ping 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 | 20:38 |
| Halitech | |Ryan, ping IP_OF_ROUTER | 20:38 |
| dajhorn | rom1v: You must have a 3rd party repository loading, which may be broken. None of the standard Ubuntu Jaunty repositories have a truecrypt package. | 20:38 |
| |Ryan | Of. | 20:38 |
| |Ryan | Oh, I don't have a ping. | 20:38 |
| rom1v | dajhorn, no | 20:38 |
| |Ryan | Nothing internet based works. | 20:38 |
| rom1v | I have no 3rd party repos | 20:38 |

| e0n` | hmmm | 20:38 |
| e0n` | Should I make my cryptinstaller method for dell mini 9's available? | 20:39 |
| Paddy_EIRE | rom1v: the truecrypt metapackage is depreciated try "truecrypt-installer" | 20:39 |
| rom1v | that's why I don't understand why apt-get propose it to me | 20:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | I posted several times asking why jscal wasn't working under 9.04. It turns out to be an issue with SDL and using "export SDL_JOYSTICK_DEVICE=/dev/input/js0" prior to running the game solves the issue. Just thought I'd mention it to the channel. | 20:39 |
| e0n` | So people can have fully encrypted netbooks? | 20:39 |

| bazz | is there a way to have network manager disconnect/not autoconnect my wireless interface when i plug in my wired interface? i still want autoconnect when the wired cable is unplugged. this is how it used to work but after a recent upgrade it now tries to connect both | 20:39 |
| Halitech | |Ryan, so what do you get for a message when you type ping IP_OF_ROUTER? | 20:39 |
| dajhorn | rom1v: And anything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ too. | 20:39 |
| Slart | ZykoticK9: thanks for that.. always nice when someone gets back with a solution | 20:39 |
| martin29 | when i plug in my psp, ubuntu always opens rhythmbox as if it were an mp3 player... how do i change the on-mount action ? | 20:39 |
| |Ryan | Right, give me 5 minutes because I'm on windows at the minute(My internet works on windows, but not UBuntu :S) | 20:40 |
| dajhorn | bazz: I'm pretty sure that is the intended behavior. You'll need to get network-manager to ignore one of the interfaces, perhaps by creating a /etc/network/interfaces file. | 20:40 |
| guntbert | bazz: same here, I just deselect wireless with right click on the applet | 20:40 |

| Slart | !dontzap | thrope | 20:40 |
| ubottu | thrope: 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. | 20:40 |

| grkblood13 | is there an audio program that can edit aac files? | 20:41 |
| Slart | thrope: you're welcome | 20:41 |
| bazz | guntbert: yeah, i know that works, but it's a pain, and a regression from previous behavior | 20:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | thrope, that's a change in 9.04, which i DON'T like but "what-ya-gonna-do?", there is a way to restore ctrl-alt-backspace however. Slart posted the dontzap for ya :) | 20:42 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: you'd be better off converting them to wav, then editing the wav | 20:42 |
| bazz | dajhorn: i don't want it to ignore that interface, just to not auto-connect it when the wired interface is up | 20:42 |
| alfonsok | :( | 20:42 |
| alfonsok | im so sad | 20:42 |
| thrope | ZykoticK9: yep... whenever i plug in the monitor after a restart the reoslution is all wrong so I usually just hit ctrl-alt-bkcp... having to log into a vt and restart gdm by hand is a pain | 20:42 |
| guntbert | bazz: I know how you feel, but to me its not *so* annoying | 20:43 |
| Slart | rom1v: what is mirror.noreply.org ? | 20:43 |
| grkblood13 | i tried converting to mp3 with ffmpeg but it would work | 20:43 |
| alfonsok | i love ubuntu, everything is working perfectly but i simply cant resolve this | 20:43 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: i said convert to WAV, not mp3 | 20:43 |
| rom1v | Slart, it was a repository for tor, but it is commented | 20:43 |
| nickoe | Why is acroread not in the repos anymore? | 20:43 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: and it will work, unless your aac files are drm-protected | 20:43 |
| rom1v | and it doesn't contains truecrypt | 20:43 |

| ZykoticK9 | nickoe, it's in medibuntu's repo | 20:44 |
| nickoe | ahh | 20:44 |
| guntbert | rom1v: I see "proposed", that tends to lead to trouble | 20:44 |
| grkblood13 | they should be , i captured them with stream ripper | 20:44 |
| grkblood13 | ill give it a go | 20:44 |
| dajhorn | bazz: I'm pretty sure that there was a foodfight over default Network Manager behavior, and they decided that the wireless interface should be kept plumbed. (Bug #96103 et al?) | 20:44 |
| starter_ | hey all i am trying to make my default python from 2.5 to 2.4 how should i go about doing that | 20:44 |
| nickoe | I just believed that is was in multiverse erUSUL ubottu ZykoticK9 | 20:44 |
| rom1v | sources.list.d is empty | 20:44 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: then they don't have drm | 20:44 |
| alfonsok | does anyone have this problem that i can't even write fluid right now.. when i type anything ubuntu is not stable now.. it leaps backwars.. or websites of whatever im doing on the internet appear on what i am writing it is so weird | 20:44 |
| rom1v | btw, do you know a repository for truecrypt | 20:45 |
| rom1v | I don't understand why ubuntu removed tor from official repositories (it was present in previous versions) | 20:45 |
| Slart | rom1v: and still.. after a "sudo apt-get autoremove; sudo apt-get update" you still get truecrypt with the autocompletion? | 20:45 |
| Slart | !truecrypt | 20:45 |
| ubottu | Truecypt is a free open-source on-the-fly disk encryption software. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TruecryptHiddenVolume | 20:45 |
| guntbert | Slart: what is your opinion on "proposed" in rom1v' list? | 20:45 |
| nickoe | erUSUL ubottu ZykoticK9: So what is the easyst way of getting it? | 20:46 |
| Slart | guntbert: it's not recommended.. but I doubt they have truecrypt in the proposed repos.. or? | 20:46 |
| martin29 | when i plug in my psp (playstation portable) as a mass-storage device, ubuntu always opens rhythmbox as if it were an mp3 player... how do i change the on-mount action ? | 20:46 |
| alfonsok | does anyone have this problem that i can't even write fluid right now.. when i type anything ubuntu is not stable now.. it leaps backwars.. or websites of wha | 20:46 |
| erUSUL | nickoe: add the medibuntu repo and install it | 20:46 |
| rom1v | Slart, yes I have still autocompletion | 20:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | nickoe, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 20:46 |
| Hydrant | hey all... do I actually need 64 bit ubuntu for seeing > 4GB of memory? | 20:46 |
| erUSUL | nickoe: it copntains libdvdcss2 needed to watch dvd's so it is a usefull repo to have imnsho | 20:47 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: what is the output of: lsb_release -c | 20:47 |
| erUSUL | Hydrant: yes | 20:47 |
| alfonsok | or if jus ttype something on the internet.. i am writing something different using messenger.. what i just wrote on the internet appears on that box! it is so weird | 20:47 |
| bazz | dajhorn: hrmm, yeah i guess it makes sense to allow multiple nics to be active, but it seems like an 'only do wired or wireless, not both' option should also be provided | 20:47 |
| guntbert | Slart: seems to be true, but sometimes there are weird dependencies... | 20:47 |
| Slart | Hydrant: yes, or the server kernel | 20:47 |
| alfonsok | ActionParsnip: ok let me check thanks | 20:47 |
| Hydrant | ah... so server kernel will show the full thing too | 20:47 |
| Halitech | Hydrant, not unless you want to install the server kernel with pea support | 20:47 |
| Slart | guntbert: but would a dependency make it show up as an autocompletion? seems kind of weird | 20:47 |
| dajhorn | Hydrant: No, but you need a 32-bit kernel with the "PAE" option to use more than 4GB of memory. | 20:47 |
| alfonsok | ActionParsnip: Codename:jaunty | 20:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | erUSUL, nickoe libdvdcss2 isn't required for 9.04 anymore - they use some dvd4 thing i think. | 20:47 |
| Slart | Hydrant: I think the server kernel has PAE enabled | 20:47 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: ok thats god, making sure you weren't on karmic | 20:47 |
| Halitech | Hydrant, *PAE support | 20:47 |
| Slart | Hydrant: but I would recommend 64 bit over the server kernel | 20:48 |
| bazz | guntbert: yeah, it's not the end of the world, but still... | 20:48 |
| Hydrant | it's an i7... I suppose it doesn't matter too much though | 20:48 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: are you fully updated? | 20:48 |
| dajhorn | bazz: I'm looking for an option to "just use the wired connection", which is the old behavior, but I can't find it on my Jaunty box. | 20:48 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: is your system fairly new? | 20:48 |
| Hydrant | okay, is there a way to upgrade to 64 bit easily from 32? I assume just the kernel has to be updated? | 20:48 |
| alfonsok | ActionParsnip: ok.. dont you think this is weird? maybe is because ubuntu is extremely fast now and with my high end hardware (new macbook pro, 2.8ghz, 4gb ddr3..) its acting weird? | 20:48 |
| Slart | rom1v: I'm a little tempted to try the proposed reposityr.. just to see if truecrypt shows up | 20:48 |
| alfonsok | ActionParsnip: very new | 20:48 |
| dajhorn | bazz: I get a split route when my wifi is connected to the same network as the ethernet port, which is annoying. | 20:49 |
| grkblood13 | martin29, i tried converting to wav and it sound like a spaceship or soemthing | 20:49 |
| grkblood13 | lol | 20:49 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: theres better than that but its not slow enough to cause typing weirdness | 20:49 |
| grkblood13 | mplayer -ao pcm:file=targetfile.wav sourcefile.aac | 20:49 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: maybe its a mac thing? | 20:49 |
| Ro9u3oR | anyone familiar with how to install eeebuntu | 20:49 |
| bazz | dajhorn: exactly, so i actually disable wireless whenever i plug in, which is annoying to have to do every time | 20:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | dajhorn, Hydran is 32bit PAE stable on the desktop with more then 4G? Are there issues with running anything with PAE? Personally I run 64bit as desktop without too many issues, but I've never tried PAE? | 20:49 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: does it PLAY right in ubuntu? | 20:49 |
| winboard | seas | 20:49 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: i mean BEFORE the conversion | 20:49 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: i've never installed on a mac as i only buy proper pcs | 20:49 |
| grkblood13 | yes | 20:49 |
| guntbert | Slart: right you are: I get the same behaviour see http://paste.ubuntu.com/196586/ | 20:50 |
| grkblood13 | after, no | 20:50 |
| alfonsok | ActionParsnip: i dont see how would be mac thing.. maybe i should use ext3 not 4? | 20:50 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: good... do you have all the (patented) multimedia packages, like the ones from medibuntu, or just plain ubuntu? | 20:50 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: i dont think thats the issue as the app you are typing is in ram | 20:50 |
| guntbert | Slart: and I don't have proposed enabled ;-) | 20:50 |
| Slart | guntbert: mm.. I just enabled it too.. truecrypt shows up alright.. but I apt-cache won't show any info about it.. | 20:50 |
| dajhorn | ZykoticK9: Yes. | 20:50 |
| Slart | guntbert: oh.. you don't.. hmm | 20:50 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: i am unsure of the state of ext4 presently | 20:50 |
| grkblood13 | im not sure, i didnt get any errors during conversion though | 20:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | dajhorn, yes there are issues ? | 20:51 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: maybe the keyboard needs extra options in spme form | 20:51 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: please use my name before all messages directed to me | 20:51 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: Ext4 is a bit hum still in Ubuntu, but default file system in Fedora 11 | 20:51 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: otherwise i might miss them | 20:51 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: i'd look around for guides of people installing ubuntu on mac | 20:51 |
| grkblood13 | marok | 20:51 |
| grkblood13 | martin29, ok | 20:51 |
| dajhorn | ZykoticK9: Yes (it is stable). | 20:51 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: thanks | 20:51 |

| dajhorn | ZykoticK9: A P | 20:51 |
| rsr | hi | 20:51 |
| dajhorn | ZykoticK9: (oops) | 20:51 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: you could try with soundconverter (a gui for sound conversion) | 20:51 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: i'm finding ext3 perfectly acceptible :) | 20:51 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: it's in the repos | 20:51 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: np and Ext4 will also be the default file system for Karmic | 20:51 |
| alfonsok | action i believe i see now what it is.. i am using my wireless keyboard now.. and now i can type fluid and no backwards | 20:52 |
| starter_ | hey all i am trying to make my default python from 2.5 to 2.4 how should i go about doing that, i have ubuntu server edition 8.04 | 20:52 |
| alfonsok | i am using my apple wireless keyboard now | 20:52 |
| dajhorn | ZykoticK9: A PAE kernel only shows userland a 4GB space, so any incompatibilities that you could get are with kernel module blobs. | 20:52 |
| martin29 | grkblood13: but to be even safer, i'd add medibuntu to my repos | 20:52 |
| alfonsok | but my macbook pro built in keyboard is the problem i see now | 20:52 |
| rsr | I amtrying to record voice on the microfone... although all I get is a continuous beep when playing back | 20:52 |
| alfonsok | i dont know why | 20:52 |

| martin29 | grkblood13: help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 20:52 |

| cambazz | hello. how do I install a .deb package that I downloaded from ubuntu repository? (I am on 8.10, this is a 9.04 package) | 20:53 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: true, but not if I change it to ext3 first ;) | 20:53 |
| martin29 | cambazz: you don't | 20:53 |
| martin29 | cambazz: don't install packages from another version | 20:53 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: I have 9.04 with / in Ext4 and it boots up so much faster than Ext3 | 20:53 |
| alfonsok | ActionParsnip: it was my macbook keyboard.. bluetooth recognize my apple wireless keyboard i was surprised.. and now everything is fluid.. | 20:53 |
| cambazz | martin29: well I need a newer version of imagemagick | 20:53 |
| nickoe | Is it because acroread is one ompiled for amd64? | 20:53 |
| blob | starter_: change the symlink in /usr/bin ( ln -sf python2.4 python ) | 20:53 |
| |Ryan | Right | 20:53 |
| testor | Hello, I have VERY slow writing on USB-Sticks here in Jaunty, much faster in windows on same computer.. ideas? | 20:53 |
| martin29 | cambazz: it will ask for dependencies | 20:53 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: my systems have months of uptime. I dont rate boot speeds | 20:54 |
| |Ryan | Who was it that asked me to ping my IP? | 20:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | nickoe, you need to add the medibuntu repo first then you'll be able to install acroread. have you added medibuntu then updated your database ie "sudo apt-get update"? | 20:54 |
| martin29 | cambazz: then you'll have to install other packages manually... which will ask for other dependencies... and so on till you break your system | 20:54 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: Ext4 is better with bigger files as well and such | 20:54 |
| alfonsok | ActionParsnip: but still is annoying that i can't set my keyboard to work properly, is not like i will be using my wireless keyboard all the time | 20:54 |
| nickoe | ZykoticK9, yes | 20:54 |
| gasbag | does an upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 automatically upgrade all packages one has installed in 8.10? (unlike a fresh install) | 20:54 |
| sebsebseb | gasbag: should do yep | 20:54 |
| Silus | problem-I have a dedicated ubuntu box(A) and on another box with a VM instance(B); I cannot ping between boxes, but everything else seems to work; I can even view webpages on B through A's browser; What have I messed up here? | 20:54 |
| cambazz | martin29: ok, so I will delete the version I have and build it from source | 20:54 |
| martin29 | gasbag: yes, but not including non-official repos | 20:55 |
| gasbag | sebsebseb: tnx! | 20:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | nickoe, then "sudo apt-get install acroread" should work? | 20:55 |
| gasbag | martin29: gotcha | 20:55 |
| Slart | guntbert: ok.. I've been playing around with apt-get.. I find truecrypt truecrypt-utils and truecrypt-installer as autocompletion when I use "sudo apt-get install truecrypt".. no matter how much I update package lists or clear caches | 20:55 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: its mac hardware which is primarily designed for Mac OS. Why not just buy a windows based pc to put linux on and save yourself half the price of apples hardware | 20:55 |
| ekimmargni | gasbag: and it sets up sources.list too | 20:55 |
| martin29 | cambazz: building it from source has dependencies too | 20:55 |
| gasbag | ekimmargni: cool | 20:55 |
| Paddy_EIRE | gasbag: yes it does.. but not packages that you installed manually or from ppa or other 3rd party repositories | 20:55 |
| nickoe | ZykoticK9, http://pastebin.com/m8621baf | 20:55 |
| martin29 | cambazz: try sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb, and see what happens | 20:55 |
| martin29 | cambazz: that's the way you install a package manuallly | 20:56 |
| sebsebseb | gasbag: np | 20:56 |
| guntbert | Slart: same here, but within aptitude: nothing | 20:56 |
| ekimmargni | gasbag: or at least it should... I had one leftover intrepid line that didn't get changed... dunno why, maybe it was customized? Not a big deal in any case, but you may check after upgrade | 20:56 |
| martin29 | cambazz: but i'm pretty sure it'll have dependencies | 20:56 |
| cambazz | martin29: what was the name of the package that has the build tools | 20:56 |
| ActionParsnip | alfonsok: theres this which may help some: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro4-1/Jaunty | 20:56 |
| gasbag | Paddy_EIRE: i will have to figure out which packages i may have installed from outside the normal repos | 20:56 |
| cambazz | essential build or something like that | 20:56 |
| martin29 | cambazz: building it from source will have the same dependency problems | 20:56 |
| fccf | cambazz: build-essential | 20:56 |
| martin29 | cambazz: it will not solve your issue | 20:56 |
| nickoe | ZykoticK9, it says, thet it could not find the package acroread | 20:56 |

| cambazz | well, can I upgrate to 9.04 ? | 20:57 |
| dajhorn | Silus: Provide more information about the VM environment. Some use tun/tap, which can cause the no-ping problem. Some guests will block ICMP with a built-in firewall. | 20:57 |

| mezquitale | I just downgraded to 8.04 and am having serious problems configuring nVidia drivers, anyone knows how to install the old nVidia drivers??? | 20:57 |

| Slart | guntbert: ok.. same thing on a vm install of ubuntu server.. that is basically a fresh install of 9.04, I have barely used it at all.. I wonder what is doing to autocompletion | 20:58 |
| ActionParsnip | mezquitale: uninstall what drivers you have and then reinstall them using the method you installed them with | 20:58 |
| guntbert | xylander: /join #ubuntu-pl please | 20:58 |
| Silus | dajhorn: I can ping it from an XP machine behind the same router, does that help? Also, it's VMware that has ubuntu, but I don't know much of the details. | 20:58 |
| mezquitale | martin29, I ALREADY downgraded. I am trying to make the nVidia drivers work | 20:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | nickoe, sorry i don't speak german so i'm not quite sure what it's saying, but the apt-get update has some issues i'd say | 20:58 |
| martin29 | mezquitale: i never told you anything :) | 20:58 |
| alfonsok | ActionParsnip: thanks | 20:59 |
| nickoe | ZykoticK9, wich lines? (btw it is danish :P) | 20:59 |
| mezquitale | ActionParsnip, the methond I am using to install drivers does not give me the option to install the old drivers, it keeps installing the same buggy new ones | 20:59 |
| martin29 | when i plug in my psp (playstation portable) as a mass-storage device, ubuntu always opens rhythmbox as if it were an mp3 player... how do i change the on-mount action ? | 20:59 |
| nickoe | ZykoticK9, I cant see any probs :-/ | 20:59 |
| dajhorn | Silus: If the vmnet is "NAT", then ping won't work. If you change the vmnet to "Bridged", then you may get the desired behavior. | 20:59 |

| ZykoticK9 | nickoe, i'm mainly having a language problem with your logs, perhaps a danish chat would be better - but i think there is a problem with you "apt-get update" and probably medibuntu repo... good luck man. | 21:02 |

| mezquitale | ActionParsnip, thanks a lot! I think it can be easier nowadays, im looking up "nVidia" in Add/Remove and I actually see different drivers, my distro is pointing to the new drivers, that's why it's complaining about an output not being supported, let me purge the new drivers and install the old ones, thanks for pointing me at the right direction | 21:04 |

| Silus | dajhorn: Yeah, I was afraid of that; I always thought that windows ping and Linux ping were generally the same. Is there something I should look at in particular on my Linux box trying to resolve this? | 21:05 |
| fccf | Noble: what laptop? what hardware? | 21:05 |
| JordiGH | dajhorn: This is so weird. Is an MTA not part of the Ubuntu base install? :-/ | 21:05 |

| JuJuBee | I have an ntfs partition. I can mount it from dolphin and get /dev/sda1 /media/WinXP fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0 in my mtab. Can I just add that to my fstab to mount it at startup? | 21:10 |

| Slart | guntbert: nah.. I don't think so.. apt-cache pkgnames might be supposed to list all packages it can think of.. might be a bug in the bash autocompletion.. perhaps it should use apt-cache dumpavail instead of apt-cache pkgnames.. but I'm not sure.. it might create other problems | 21:12 |
| Noble | fccf: That was what I thought as well. There is some sort of third party hardware switch to switch of the wireless. It uses "launch manager" in windows to get it working.. | 21:12 |
| dajhorn | dyier: `sudo lspci -v` will give you a list of the hardware in your computer. | 21:12 |

| mIRCMan | i didnt see a place to change where grub gets installed tho on the install cd | 21:37 |
| fccf | LuK: hold on ... I will see if I can clear that up for you | 21:37 |
| ufd | which was kinda cool reliable but complex | 21:37 |

| blizzkid | mIRCMan: You can either install GRUB2 or install grub on a non-raided drive | 21:39 |
| Gabrielar | im really kinda lost with this one | 21:39 |
| LuK | and replace files in main firefox folder... | 21:39 |
| mIRCMan | it didnt detect my raid, but installed on a single drive of my raid set, which i hope it didnt do any damage | 21:39 |
| BradP | ZykoticK9: /var/cache/apt/archive | 21:40 |

| jillian | ZykoticK9 - forum wasn't any help..Can we deal with the webcam first | 21:43 |
| mIRCMan | which used to be xp | 21:43 |
| Gabrielar | i believe is something with the HD, coz my previous CD which i sucessfuly used the first time got this error, now the new image, but i even deleted partitions and made new ones | 21:43 |
| mIRCMan | and so somehow hd(0,0) or whatever grub installs to happens to be a raid controller drive | 21:43 |

| tyranos | glitsj16, me too | 21:51 |

| jillian | I see a Pixart imaging..is that it? | 21:55 |
| frostburn | Gabrielar, it's probably a file permission issue, if you need to reformat it, there should be tools available to do that under system > admin > usb startdisk | 21:55 |

| imatech1 | skyl: just assign an ip within the same subnet as the static ip | 22:09 |

| Thib_ | I used ccsm to search for "mouse" (useless: almost every featurette has several strings with the word "mouse", because they almost all have mouse buttons or gestures), "cursor", "pointer", "center" and "centered" but I didn't find anything conclusive yet | 22:46 |
| Arquis_Br | The same Ubuntu, but lighter. | 22:47 |
| mezquitale | natschil, it used to work because I was using 8.10 however that distro does not have the real time kernel and a lot of my appz didnt work so I erased my HD and installed a fresh copy of 8.04 and now it wont work, it used to be working though | 22:47 |

| infomomo | Arquis_Br: are you using it right now >? | 22:47 |
| natschil | mezquitale: I would expect 8.10 to use the newer drivers though....maybe the problem isn't related to your nvidia card, as it isn't really an "input" decice | 22:47 |
| mezquitale | if I could only configure "nvidia-glx" in my distro instead of "nvidia-glx-new" that would make my day but it seems no one logged in knows how to do that | 22:48 |
| Thib_ | it stands to reason it would be one of those effects, still. I think I should disable desktop effects and see if this auto-center behavior goes away or not. | 22:48 |
| Thib_ | confirmed. | 22:48 |
| york666 | How do I enable autolock? | 22:48 |
| Arquis_Br | Infomomo: I tried it. You can go to the XUBUNTU site to take a look, I guess. XUBUNTU is Ubuntu with XFCE. | 22:49 |
| Thib_ | if I disable desktop effects, the mouse cursor does not automatically glide to the center of the window I end up selecting with alt-tab. | 22:49 |
| natschil | mezquitale: http://www.linuxforums.org/multimedia/installing_nvidia_3d_drivers.html , hope this helps | 22:49 |

| sirMajid | hi, I need to store all the data returned by a bash function in a file. how can I do that? | 22:50 |
| york666 | How do I enable autolock??? | 22:50 |
| Thib_ | aha, it also appears that there is no auto-centering behavior with the intermediate level of desktop effects in the Appearance preferences. | 22:50 |
| Halitech | infomomo, I can only confirm that on my system that Debian with XFCE runs alot faster then Xubuntu did | 22:50 |
| Barridus | infomomo, or you could have both, it's easy to log into one or the other (and your docs and so forth will be usable in both) | 22:50 |
| Thib_ | so, it's something that's in the "full" set of desktop effects, I'm going to guess. | 22:50 |
| natschil | sirMajid: bashfunction > filename overwrites the contents of the file, bashfunction >> filename appens the results of the function...replace bashfunction and filename. | 22:51 |
| infomomo | Halitech: i will take both your advices: Debian with XFCE. Halitech: is installing XFCE on debian straight forward? | 22:51 |
| Barridus | Arquis_Br, hmm, mine boots to some strange console/text login that i can't log in to. also happened a while back when there was talk of a bug in casper (or whatever the library is called that creates bootable linux in ubuntu) | 22:51 |

| natschil | sirMajid: what sort of command do you mean? | 22:54 |
| gum76 | thanks for the help | 22:54 |
| Thib_ | it appears that now that I have mucked with the desktop effects -- shifted to no effects, then to intermediate, then to full again -- this auto-center behavior has gone away! | 22:54 |
| regeya | gum76, xfce might work for you; you might also give various windowmanagers a look such as openbox | 22:54 |
| jdu_ | For anyone using New Wave or similarly colored theme, is there a way to work around openoffice's use of a black font for the menu items (File, Edit, etc.)? All other gtk apps use a white font there. | 22:54 |
| gum76 | how hard would it be to take Xbuntu and make it run Fluxbox? | 22:54 |
| Thib_ | a bit frustrating while trying to unearth what was happening but ultimately that's what I wanted it to do :-) | 22:55 |
| sirMajid | natschil: it's hping3 | 22:55 |
| imatech1 | skyl...did that work? | 22:55 |
| VincentVegan | hi there | 22:55 |
| Barridus | you're welcome gum76. http://www.xubuntu.org/ | 22:55 |
| sirMajid | natschil: it's a bash function like ping | 22:55 |
| Thib_ | anyway | 22:55 |
| Thib_ | I guess I'll need to understand how it works only if this recurs often. | 22:55 |
| Slart | Thib_: hmm.. odd | 22:55 |
| VincentVegan | does anybody know how i can resize the fonts when printing evolution-calendars? | 22:55 |
| Thib_ | thanks Slart, thanks natschil | 22:55 |
| Mike-DC | gum: I've run fluxbox on xubuntu before. Not terribly difficult... Also, since xubuntu is geared for older systems a lot of the applications will be lighter than what you'll find in ubuntu. | 22:55 |
| Slart | Thib_: I can't find anything in ccsm that sounds like it would move the mouse pointer.. good that it's fixed anyways. | 22:56 |
| Thib_ | yeah | 22:56 |
| jeeves | tell jeeves_moss no-ip | 22:56 |
| Thib_ | I can totally see that this would be desired behavior for some users. | 22:56 |
| gum76 | Mike-DC excellent that's music to my ears | 22:56 |
| natschil | Thib_: glad it works for you now :) | 22:56 |
| Thib_ | I don't want that, it was very distracting to me. | 22:56 |
| sirMajid | natschil: it echos a line just after running and echos 3 lines after some seconds, | 22:56 |
| rob2 | after installing ubuntu (clean install) it fails to update giving hash sum errors - I have done this with ubuntu 8.10, 9.04 and a live cd of 9.10 - same result each time. Does anyone have an idea as to how to resolve? (also tried netinst debian and it fails at configure packages) | 22:56 |
| Thib_ | I'll try to find out more specifically where it comes from if it happens again (it's my, maybe 15th boot and it's the first time this has happened, so clearly it's not a big problem) | 22:57 |
| sirMajid | natschil: my problem is that >> just redirects the first line and echos the other lines in the terminal | 22:57 |
| Polarina | Has anyone attempted to play Puzzle Pirates in Ubuntu 9.04? The widget sizes and fonts aren't right on my installation. Any ideas? I have already attempted to remove/install fonts to match a Debian installation, in which the game behaves properly. | 22:57 |
| Thib_ | have a good one everyone | 22:57 |
| Arquis_Br | Barridus: No clue :( Any particular error message? | 22:57 |
| _Brun0_ | If i'm going to create a personal blog about ubuntu. Can I have a domain with the word "ubuntu" in it? Like BrunosUbuntuBlog.com? | 22:57 |
| natschil | sirMajid: hmm, seems to work fine for me, though you might be doing something differently | 22:58 |
| hanasaki | what package wil provide a ntp client damon that will keep my clock up to date? | 22:58 |
| infomomo | halitech: thnaks | 22:58 |
| Mike-DC | hanasaki: sudo apt-get install ntp | 22:58 |
| sirMajid | natschill: you did it using hping | 22:58 |
| sirMajid | ? | 22:58 |
| sirMajid | natschil:? | 22:59 |
| Mike-DC | hanasaki: Then edit /etc/ntp.conf and restart the daemon | 22:59 |
| paolo88 | hi, when i run a programm in the terminal, it give me "in Get MAC Adress (internal) : There was a configuration problem (or no cable !) on your platform: No such file or directory". The program run, but i read this, because? | 22:59 |
| hanasaki | Mike-DC, i htought that was a server too? | 22:59 |
| sjokkis | Mike-DC: i suppose you mean reload the config | 22:59 |
| natschil | sirMajid: sudo hping3 www.google.com > test.txt seems to work | 22:59 |
| skyl | imatech1 yes, it looks like I was just trying to assign a static IP that had already been assigned by dhcp aka I'm slow | 22:59 |
| Mike-DC | hanasaki: It's both.... you can configure it to be a client, a server, or both. | 22:59 |

| natschil | sirMajid: sorry, hping3 localhost | 23:00 |
| Mike-DC | sjokkis: that oo.... | 23:00 |
| sirMajid | natschil: it printed ALL the lines in the test.txt? | 23:00 |
| natschil | sirMajid: oh, I understand, the last lines aren't there, i get your problem now | 23:00 |
| Arquis_Br | Loafers: Transmission happened, I guess. | 23:00 |
| hanasaki | Mike-DC, thanks.. hmm dont see how to turn off the ntp server abilty and make it ony a client | 23:00 |
| jdu_ | ls | 23:01 |
| loafers | Arquis_Br, oh ok | 23:01 |
| sirMajid | natschil: tnx:D | 23:01 |
| Mike-DC | hanasaki: all you really need is a server statement and a driftfile statement in your ntp.conf - to restrict others from configuring it use "restrict -4 default kod notrap nomodify nopeer noquery" as well | 23:02 |
| natschil | sirMajid: wait a moment, I may have a solution... | 23:02 |
| sirMajid | natschil: ok | 23:02 |

| billybigrigger | sjokkis::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: i dunno, you tell me | 23:39 |
| sjokkis | billybigrigger:::::::::::: i'm not saying it's annoying or anything, but it is | 23:39 |
| billybigrigger | sjokkis!@# | 23:39 |
| billybigrigger | sjokkis!@# is this better? | 23:40 |
| billybigrigger | sjokkis!@# cause i can change it back to ::: | 23:40 |
| sjokkis | minutely | 23:40 |
| sjokkis | i'd go for 8==D tho | 23:40 |
| cabrey | michu_, you should use apt-get to install flash player, but it shouldn't make a difference | 23:40 |
| hatter243 | billybigrigger, it appears the Keyboard Shortcut settings for "Volume Up" and "Volume Down" don't actually talk to the volume-control applet | 23:40 |
| sjokkis | billybigrigger8==D like this | 23:40 |
| billybigrigger | sjokkis::: yeah, xchat won't let me do 4 characters :P only 3 | 23:41 |
| Polarina | Has anyone attempted to play Puzzle Pirates in Ubuntu 9.04? The widget sizes and fonts aren't right on my installation. Any ideas? I have already attempted to remove/install fonts to match a Debian installation, in which the game behaves properly. | 23:41 |
| sjokkis | that's okay. just pretend you have a small penis | 23:41 |
| michu_ | cabrey, should I uninstall it then and install it again? if so, how to uninstall flash? | 23:41 |
| g1er | laptop A online, 3g usb internet, pw protected, not mine, owners out of town/unreachable. laptop B offline, looking to ad-hoc tether using bcm4318 wifi card and android dream phone (works wonderfully in windows). Laptop B shows card in lspci, but no wlan in network connections. | 23:41 |
| sjokkis | or don't pretend | 23:41 |
| billybigrigger | sjokkis::: i tried, but 8=D just doesn't have the same effect :P | 23:41 |
| sjokkis | like this: | 23:41 |
| sjokkis | billybigrigger8=D | 23:41 |
| sjokkis | yeah you're right. it's not the same | 23:41 |
| cabrey | billybigrigger, do you use tab completion? | 23:41 |
| billybigrigger | 8=D~~~ is better :P | 23:41 |
| hatter243 | !ot | sjokkis billybigrigger | 23:41 |
| ubottu | sjokkis billybigrigger: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 23:41 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: yes | 23:41 |
| sjokkis | oh good, hatter243 is ready to answer my question | 23:42 |
| billybigrigger | hatter243::: and you can't set you volume up down in keyboard preferences? | 23:42 |
| zmax | maga | 23:42 |
| billybigrigger | maybe he should answer his own q's if im OT | 23:42 |
| cabrey | michu_, there isn't a way to uninstall flash when you installed it from adobe's site (unless you d/l'd the deb) | 23:43 |
| sjokkis | hatter243: i tried reinstalling ubuntu on a system that has an encrypted drive, with an LVM volume on top, divided into a root and home partition. i couldn't figure out how to reinstall from a CD without touching anything except the root partition. all the options i was given by the installer involved reformating the drive. can you tell me how to resolve this? | 23:43 |
| hatter243 | billybigrigger, It is set properly, that's why I see the gnome popup volume slider moving around. That just doesn't seem to be connected to the volume control | 23:43 |
| sheep96783 | i'm trying to use rdesktop to view my windows pc but all i'm getting is a blank screen. i'm not sure if it's even connected; i don't think it is | 23:44 |
| hatter243 | sjokkis, in summary: You would like to reformat one partition of a drive? | 23:44 |
| racquad | hi guys. anyone has any tip about replacing partimage? I run Ubuntu 64 and partimage is not present at the moment for this system | 23:44 |
| sjokkis | hatter243: a virtual one, yes | 23:44 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: you can, just remove the module from your firefox directory | 23:44 |
| sjokkis | hatter243: which is the source of my woes | 23:44 |
| cabrey | billybigrigger, it installs it in /usr/lib | 23:44 |
| sjokkis | the installer doesn't seem to recognize those | 23:44 |
| michu_ | cabrey, yes, that's what I meant... sorry for confusion. I downloaded the deb file from their website and installed it on my machine | 23:44 |
| cabrey | !flash > michu_ | 23:44 |
| ubottu | michu_, please see my private message | 23:44 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: billybigrigger@cabo:~/.mozilla/plugins$ ls | 23:44 |
| billybigrigger | libflashplayer.so | 23:44 |
| hatter243 | sjokkis, does the server version? | 23:44 |
| sjokkis | dunno | 23:45 |
| sudobash | Hey I am having problems modprobing ndiswrapper cause it says it needs a .conf on the end but when I add .conf on the end of the filename it says it cannot find the module | 23:45 |
| cabrey | michu_, ok before you follow those instructions, uninstall flash from your computer | 23:45 |
| cabrey | billybigrigger, {cabrey} < ~ > ~~~> ls ~/.mozilla/plugins | 23:45 |
| cabrey | ls: cannot access /home/cabrey/.mozilla/plugins: No such file or directory | 23:45 |
| cabrey | ;) | 23:45 |
| sjokkis | hatter243: are you saying i should try that, or were you just curious? | 23:46 |
| michu_ | cabrey, can you just tell me how to do it? | 23:46 |
| cabrey | michu_, yes, hold on | 23:46 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: hmmm... | 23:46 |
| hatter243 | sjokkis, curious, I remember the server version having many more options in it as far as installation goes. I don't know much about LVM's though =/ | 23:47 |
| sjokkis | =///// | 23:47 |
| racquad | any help? | 23:47 |
| sjokkis | aw, that didn't have quite the same effect as :(((( | 23:47 |
| cabrey | michu_, run 'sudo dpkg -r adobe-flashplugin' (w/o the quotes) in a terminal | 23:47 |
| pedro_ | ubuntu is tellin me only one installer can be running at the same time. | 23:47 |
| hatter243 | Ha! Fixed my problem. System -> Preferences -> Sound Preferences and selecting both Master and PCM Mixer Tracks | 23:48 |
| pedro_ | but how can i stop the other one thats running in the background | 23:48 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: that is the flash 10 plugin for 64bit linux, right from adobe's site... | 23:48 |
| cabrey | billybigrigger, oh you use 64 bit, not the apt-get installer | 23:48 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: so if you have installed from adobe's site, that's where the plugin goes | 23:48 |
| cabrey | billybigrigger, that's why :) | 23:48 |
| gum76 | Hatter what does PCM mean? | 23:48 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: i tried both, repo version, and from the site | 23:48 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: all im saying is if he tried the plugin from adobe site, thats how to remove it | 23:49 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: then he can go ahead and try the flashplugin-nonfree from repo's | 23:49 |
| hatter243 | gum76, according to Google: Pulse-Code Modulation | 23:49 |
| cabrey | billybigrigger, i have the listed files in the deb right here. it installs it under /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so | 23:49 |
| michu_ | cabrey, done it | 23:50 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: yes i know | 23:50 |
| cabrey | michu_, ok, no errors, correct? | 23:50 |
| michu_ | cabrey, yes | 23:50 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey::: all i said was "the plugin from adobe's site is located in ~/.mozilla/plugins" | 23:50 |
| billybigrigger | cabrey> michu_, there isn't a way to uninstall flash when you installed it from adobe's site (unless you d/l'd the deb) | 23:51 |
| michu_ | cabrey, then I fallowed your link, but it said I've got the plugin already installed | 23:51 |
| cabrey | billybigrigger, oh i got what you're saying | 23:51 |
| cabrey | billybigrigger, you're right :) | 23:51 |
| RichiH | if anyone in here has a suggestion for undeleting files from an image of a vfat partition and keeping the directory structure intact (we are talking ~20k and 56 GiB files here)... shoot | 23:51 |
| michu_ | cabrey, and the video is still jerking | 23:52 |
| sudobash | Hey I am having problems modprobing ndiswrapper cause it says it needs a .conf on the end but when I add .conf on the end of the filename it says it cannot find the module | 23:52 |
| cabrey | michu_, you installed through apt-get? well I wouldn't be surprised if it was due to the new x.org & drivers | 23:53 |
| Mac42DO | Hi Since the upgrade von 8.10 to 9.04, I can't spin down the hard drive with windows on it. It spins up again immediatly, after hdaprm -y /dev/sdb | 23:53 |
| cabrey | michu_, a lot of people are complaining about flash & video playback in jaunty | 23:53 |
| michu_ | cabrey, apt-get install xxxxxx? | 23:53 |
| michu_ | cabrey, it would be nice if someone could come up with a solution | 23:53 |
| cabrey | michu_, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer (or flashplugin-nonfree, take your choice) | 23:54 |
| michu_ | cabrey, it says that I've got the newest version already | 23:55 |
| michu_ | I think I will leave it for tonight, cabrey | 23:55 |
| cabrey | michu_, so you did install it, ok | 23:55 |
| michu_ | cabrey, unless you have another quick idea | 23:55 |
| cabrey | michu_, file a bug? then developers will help you out | 23:56 |
| michu_ | ok thanks cabrey :) | 23:56 |
| basisbit_ | make me a sandwich! no! sudo make me a sandwich! okey | 23:56 |
| piv | where can i get icecat or iceweasel, neither seem to be in the repository | 23:57 |
| piv | ? | 23:57 |
| cabrey | piv, iceweasel is firefox | 23:57 |
| cabrey | piv, well debian rebranded it because of copyright issues | 23:57 |
| Seveas | piv, we still call them firefox and co. If you want iceweasel, install debian | 23:57 |
| TheDJACR | My mouse won't move and GDM gets stuck on a black screen. What shall I do? | 23:58 |
| piv | Seveas, cabrey , right, know what it is, but i want to use different settings so i don't have to log in and out and all for my wife to use here browser, with her bookmarks, her addons, etc.. | 23:58 |
| ccatalan | spanish? | 23:59 |
| cabrey | piv, use firefox profiles | 23:59 |
| piv | Seveas, cabrey just thought it might be easier to have the two | 23:59 |
