porjoeven now when I search, it's still not showing up00:55
sebsebsebyowshi: Ubuntu only does security updates from the repo,  which means you have to wait for a later version for newer versions of programs,  or  you can install them yourself, PPA is one of the ways to do it00:55
porjobut it's definitely installed00:55
sebsebsebyowshi: ,but no all programs will have a PPA, but  a lot of the major stuff will00:56

sebsebsebtigerplug: Virtualbox is  usually better than VMware now :)  you can even use your VMDK files in it,  and you can try #vmware for your issue00:59
tigerplugbillybigrigger, I need to connect to a juniper router running in vmware directly through the console port without using a physical cable. So I guess named pipe is the way01:00

lich0rif I cannot find telnetd or telnetd-ssl in /etc/init.d/ that means it is not installed, right?01:01
reya276edbian: how can I apply permissions of 777 to a removeable drive such as a WD My Book?01:01
jdulich0r: sshd01:02

reya276edbian: I tried doing chmod 777 /media/My Book, but that did not work01:02
tigerplugsebsebseb - its juniper singtel router01:02
sebsebsebtigerplug: ok never heard of that01:03
fccflich0r: telnet is not a standard (or reccommended) way to connect to an ubuntu box... reccommended way is to use openssh01:03
lich0rjdu, I was told openssh instead? My biggest priority is to make sure the other two are off, because before I realized what I was doing was insecure I installed them. Though telnetd was supposedly uninstalled by telnetd-ssl01:03
fccflich0r: portscan yourself01:04
sedontanefccf: thanks for the ppa tip - have 2.6.28 kernel now01:04
jdulich0r: yes, so if they are not in /etc/init.d,  they should not be there.  you can always check with a portscan or ps01:04
fccfsedontane: woo hoo... I like pointing people in the right direction01:04
* lich0r is installing nmap01:04
sebsebsebsedontane: well it was my tip originally :)01:05
sebsebsebsedontane: anyway can't you get 2.6.30 in 8.10 ?01:05
sedontanetrue and thanks to you too sebsebseb - you were quoted in my original plea to fccf for help01:05
sebsebsebsedontane: as a ppa?01:05
sebsebsebsedontane: yep I saw that01:05
sedontanenot straight off - anyways if this works no need01:05
fccfsebsebseb: and credit is also given to you ..  needed 2.6.2801:05
lich0rfccf, are there any other places I should check? What if I wanted to remove another services without using the GUI? Would it always be in /etc/init.d ?01:06
sebsebsebfccf: yeah for some reason he apparantly needed that one,  or possibily later01:06
sedontanea package needed 2.6.28 to compile01:06
lich0rfccf, it says all 1000 ports scanned are closed01:06
sedontanev4l-dvb01:06
sebsebsebsedontane: what's that?01:07
fccflich0r: thats where it would normally load from ... you can always do an apt-get remove --purge telnetd telnetd-ssh ... to remove all configs for telnet01:07
lich0rfccf, ahh 'apt-get remove --purge telnetd telnetd-ssh' I didn't know that was the proper syntax for remove.01:08

cabreypuff, he would have to give up 8gb of space for something he will probably never use01:43

sebsebseb!root |  sedontane01:55
ubottusedontane: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo01:55

mathewI have been trying to upgrade to ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty from Hardy for a while now, but I haven't been able to get audio to work.

enduser000hello, I have a laptop and an external monitor and a nvidia graphics card.  I want to set the external monitor to be vertical and the laptop monitor to be horozontal.  I'm using ubuntu 9.04, the nvidia driver 185.18.14, and twinview. does anyone know how I could do this? my xorg.conf file looks like this: http://pastebin.com/m6a50fcee and my Xorg.0.log file looks like this: http://pastebin.com/m5925d3eb03:09
steven_Does anyone know what audio codec come installed with Ubuntu 9.04<03:10
=== cabrey is now known as netyire
=== netyire is now known as cabrey
elad`jrib, I keep getting "You need to save this TiddlyWiki to a file before you can save changes"03:11
theoryxsteven_, you have unrestricted-extras installed ?03:11
jribelad`: you need to read about how tiddlywiki works, I don't use it03:11
jribRORgasm: looks like base is just the "prefetchable" region from the lspci -vvnn output to03:11
jribme03:11
steven_Ubuntu 9.04 codecs? any installed at installation like audio ones?03:11
cabreysteven_, install ubuntu-restricted-extras03:12
RORgasmjrib, k what do u think about the size?03:12
ctmjrsteven_: if your referring to mp3 and such no03:13
Zxcvbis there anything in ubuntu 9.04 that requires an i686 CPU?03:13
jribRORgasm: size is what lspci gives for that region03:13
cabreyZxcvb, it's compiled with i386 in mind03:13
sigimoin03:13
jribRORgasm: what is your lspci -vvnn output?03:13
Zxcvbcabrey: just checking, because the xcore86 based netbooks are i586 and therefore won't have cmov and such (I think atom is i686)03:14
PapagenoHow can I make backspace do back in firefox like in Mac and Windows?03:14
cabreyZxcvb, yes atoms are i68603:14
steven_were would I find ubuntu restricted extra's?03:14
cabreysteven_, in a terminal: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras03:14
elad`jrib, it would appear that I need to grant permission to the file to overwrite itself. Any idea how I do that with apache2, preferably without letting the file overwrite anything but itself?03:14
Zxcvbcabrey: does having i686 make that much difference if it is roughly the same speed just without the extra instructions?03:15
kbrosnanPapageno: about:config browser.backspace_action see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.backspace_action03:15
jribelad`: nope, I'm not sure that's even possible03:15
cabreyZxcvb, I don't have anything to compare against, but I use adam's netbook kernel03:15
RORgasmjrib, http://pastie.org/517193 just look at the in the VGA compatiple controller part i think the rest is irrelevant03:15
Zxcvbcabrey: is it compiled for i686, or is it an i486 kernel?03:15
cabreyZxcvb, i68603:16
Get_SumI have a Fuji Xerox DocuPrint 203A, there is no driver for it in Ubuntu; So I went to the manafacturer's website and they have a Linux driver for it; I downloaded a zip file and it contains 2 Deb files and 2 Rpm files - what do I do with them?03:16
steven_this linux mint os ie derived of ubuntu isn't all that well at least to me, so I am gonna go back to ubuntu, currently downloading Ubuntu 9.0403:16
Zxcvbcabrey: won't work then, will probably go for a custom kernel03:16

jribRORgasm: Region 2: Memory at c0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]  there's an example like that in the comments I think: molecule-eye03:16
mib_x6iuiqx6hi i'm new to ubuntu - have a question - i just edited my /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and changed to port 30000; then, i installed ufw (firewall) and set allow port 30000, then set 'ufw default deny'; however, when i try to ssh from a differnt terminal, it keeps closing connection03:16
theoryxsteven_, if you're making a windows - linux transition, i would recommend you stick to ubuntu for a little while.03:17

steven_yes, I have used lots of linux distro in the past and thought well I have been using ubuntu for some time now, I am not new to linux at all and well linux mint just doesn't seem all that to me lol03:18
RORgasmjrib, k i got that...what about the size?03:18
theoryxsteven_ , i feel ya.03:18
theoryxlol03:18
mib_x6iuiqx6Does anyone know why?03:18
steven_btw i was wondering how the ubuntu 9.04 driver were coming along last i read they didn't work well03:18
jribRORgasm: did you see molecule-eye's comment?  He has the whole command03:18
RORgasmjrib, i did see it...and i think i have the same base as him...but will the same size work for me?03:19
n2diyCan someone point me to a link that explains why some commands work on my flash drive, /media/disk, but the same commands don't work on /dev/sdb1, which are the same device?03:19
jribRORgasm: yes, you both have 256mb right?03:19
mib_x6iuiqx6If i edit sshd_config file, do I have to restart whole server, or can i just restart /etc/init.d/ssh restart?03:19
jribmib_x6iuiqx6: the latter03:19
steven_I have onboard 256mb03:19
RORgasmjrib, not sure...i either have 1025 mbram or a lil less than that03:19
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: i just did that, but still it is refusing the connection03:19
jribRORgasm: look at your lspci output03:19
RORgasmjrib, how can i check03:20
Titan8990n2diy, /dev are devices.... only very few programs can interact directly with a block device03:20
iGuelphanyone having problems with EC2 ?03:20
jribmib_x6iuiqx6: provide more context03:20
RORgasmjrib, where in the output should i be looking?03:20
steven_thats my graphics allocated memory03:20
Titan8990n2diy, so it is mounted on a location in the filesystem where it can be accessed03:20
steven_I have 2GB of DDR2 RAM03:20
jribRORgasm: the same line with c000000003:20
Titan8990n2diy, in your case, /media/disk but this can be anywhere in the filesystem03:20
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: okay, i just edited my /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and changed to port 30000; then, i installed ufw (firewall) and set allow port 30000, then set 'ufw default deny'; however, when i try to ssh from a differnt terminal, it keeps closing connection03:20

enduser000hello, I have a laptop and an external monitor and a nvidia graphics card.  I want to set the external monitor to be vertical and the laptop monitor to be horozontal.  I'm using ubuntu 9.04, the nvidia driver 185.18.14, and twinview. does anyone know how I could do this? my xorg.conf file looks like this: http://pastebin.com/m6a50fcee and my Xorg.0.log file looks like this: http://pastebin.com/m5925d3eb03:25
Titan8990n2diy, its possible, because dd has not concept of a filesystem03:25
jribmib_x6iuiqx6: wait, you've restarted since changing the sshd config file to use port 30000 right?03:25
jribmib_x6iuiqx6: restarted sshd I mean03:25
Titan8990n2diy, it just writes random ones or zeros to each bit03:25
Titan8990n2diy, dd would make all space as "unused" but would not alter the bits03:26
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: yes restarted sshd, not restarted the entire server03:26
tannersummers_how do i download the latest java03:26
Titan8990n2diy, sorry, rm would mark it as unused03:26
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: i meant last time i installed, i restarted the entire server and it worked03:26
jribmib_x6iuiqx6: make sure sshing with the old port doesn't work (locally again)03:26

Titan8990n2diy, you can edit fstab to ensure that the flash drive is always mounted to the same location03:28
n2diyTitan8990: rm -r /dev/sdb1 returns device busy errors, and so does rm -r /media/disk03:28

Titan8990tannersummers_, delete the lines for it in /boot/grub/menu.lst03:32
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: so i've been logged on, and i connected and changed ssh and stuff and restarted sshd, and i'm still connected03:32
Titan8990tannersummers_, one should be a recovery mode that should not be removed however03:32
Cpudan80n2diy: ah ok03:32
tannersummers_ethan, no what i mean is there is only one ubuntu partiton but i guess ther kernal got updated?03:32
ethanxanfantasy: you should be able to edit the menu and add them back03:32
gaddzillan2diy: have you tried rsync?03:32
tannersummers_titan8998 theres 4 total. 2 and 2 recoverys03:32
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: so the first time i tried to restart sshd, i forgot to put 'sudo', and it may have restarted improperly? Do you think that I need to log off first?03:32
ethantannersummer: you mean there are several differnt kernals to select from03:33
tannersummers_ethan correct03:33
jribmib_x6iuiqx6: no, I just thought you would get disconnected, but ok03:33
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: it is weird that i can stay connected to ssh even though i restarted it, right?03:33
tannersummers_i need to remove the old03:33
fosahow to identify what the installation directory is for firefox?03:33
jribmib_x6iuiqx6: try changing the port back to 22 and see if it works?03:33
ethantannersummer: yeah the first one on the list will be the most up to date but i don't know if you can remove the others from the list03:33
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: okay03:33
dang-artmanTroN: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution03:33
dang-artmanstart there03:34
tannersummers_ethan iv done it once, just forgot how03:34
jribfosa: use ~/.mozilla/plugins/ for plugins if that's why you want to know03:34
ethantannersummer: sorry i can't help you out i've never really had that problem03:34
dang-artmanbut it helps if you know what video chipset version it is, like i815, 845, 865 ect03:34
nellmathewhey anyone here prefer ReiserFS over Ext3/4?.. I was playing around with different file systems and I dunno if it's just me but RFS seems a LOT more responsive (and i also have more free space with a fresh install) anyone else wanna comment?03:34
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: i reset to port 22, and then restarted sshd, and i can ssh fine now03:35
tannersummers_so does anyone know?03:35
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: what is going on?03:35
fosathese install instructions seem a little out-dated but it's all java provides: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jre/manual-plugin-install-linux.html03:35
gaddzillanellmathew: if you don't have an UPS you should be wary of reiserFS, also if you look at benchmarks there is some conflicting data, but ext4 tends to be the fastest when you average out all the times03:35
fosabut there isn't a firefox/plugins folder at ~mozilla03:35
CoJaBo-Aztecnellmathew: I chose Ext3 because it seemed to be more standard, so likely more tools can read it.03:36
steven_as to the comment earlier about P2P LImeWire, you could also use FrostWire, it's Open Source03:36
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: i have some other servers installed, (no other firewalls); could those be interfering? probably not....03:36
jimmyjhhello all, is there a way to disable gnome-panel?03:36
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: any ideas?03:36
jribmib_x6iuiqx6: how about some port like 2222, does that work?03:36
Titan8990nellmathew, i think reiser's main benefit is with very small files03:36
tannersummers_wats the best firewall for ubuntu03:36
jribmib_x6iuiqx6: my guess would be the firewall03:36
Titan8990jimmyjh, use a different DE?03:36
jimmyjhTitan8990: well i wanted to keep gnome, i wanted to replace both panels with an dock03:37
ethananybody know what pidgin plugin is for what i'm listening to03:37
ctmjr!firewall|tannersummers_:03:37
ubottutannersummers_:: Ubuntu, like any other linux  distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist03:37
gaddzilla@tannersummers_: depends on how complex you want your rules to be. shorewall is great, but it can be difficult to learn. iptables offers the most flexibility, and ubuntu firewall is easy to configure with the GUI03:37
Titan8990jimmyjh, you should be able to right click on the panel to delete it03:37
steven_why would you want a firewall for ubuntu or for linux for that matter, linux is much safer than windows and plus hackers are gonna most likely wanna go after a windows machine before they would want to a linux machine03:37
Titan8990jimmyjh, may have to uncheck "locked"03:37
theoryxfosa: can't find the java6 package using the synaptic package manager?03:37
dang-artmanLOL!!!!!!!!!!!03:37
dang-artmanof course you want a firewall03:38
Titan8990jimmyjh, but you will be losing a clock and possibly a notification area03:38
arthur__is there a way from a terminal window to check if your having sound problems?03:38
jimmyjhTitan8990: i dont wanna delete the panels.. i was wondering if there was a way to stop the loading or kill gnome-panel03:38
gaddzilla@steven_: that is a terrible idea. you definitely want a firewall03:38
nellmathew@Titan8990, gaddzilla, CojaBo-Aztec: thanks for the info. Nice to have a few reliable options..03:38
ethananybody know what pidgin plugin is for what i'm listening to03:38
n2diygaddzilla: rsync is a pita too. I finally got a Ubuntu box  setup in the "wild" with a friend of mine. She doesn't want mess around with command line stuff, so I'm trying to come up with a point and click solution for here, sbackup seem to be the way to go.03:38
jimmyjhTitan8990: so easy putting them back on later...03:38
tannersummers_i have firestarter but always get failed message during boot for it03:38
dang-artmanlinux is much safer than windows because it's less likely to be attacked03:38
fosatheoryx, it seems like the right version of java is installed, but now it needs to be registered in firefox03:38
steven_well I dont as I have 2 of them on my network and both are hardware firewalls lol03:38
Titan8990jimmyjh, ehh03:38
dang-artmanEVERY piece of software out there is vulnerable03:39
ethananybody know what th pidgin plugin is for what i'm listening to is called03:39
theoryxarthur_ you can run the sound test03:39
Titan8990jimmyjh, don't use gnome but try: ps | grep gnome-panel03:39
robertrankinjrNot to mention the general nature of a Linux system. That said, vulnerabilities do occur occasionally, so a firewall isn't an entirely horrible idea03:39
dang-artmanbut people have to want to attack it03:39
jribfosa: you create it.  And it's ~/.mozilla/plugins/ that I said03:39
Titan8990jimmyjh, then kill the pid03:39
mib_x6iuiqx6jrib: its not the firewall, because i just disabled the firewall, and the same stuff happens03:39
fosajrib, you mean mozilla/firefox/plugins ?  that doesnt exist03:39
dang-artmanif we had all our ports open, we would be part of a bot net in a day, tops03:39
gaddzillan2diy: do a google search for "rsync cron script" and you'll find a bunch of pre-made ones that can do neat stuff like incremental backups or a weekly backup that deletes the previous ones automatically. no user input is required.03:39
fosajrib, mozilla/plugins also doesnt exist03:39
jribfosa: no, I mean what I said.  And I said to create what I said...03:40
theoryxfosa: you have to create the folder03:40
Titan8990n2diy, rsync is not a pita.... its considered to be the holy grail of synchronization tools03:40
ctmjrarthur__: you can run speaker-test from the terminal03:40
Titan8990n2diy, its syntax is clear and supports many features03:40
steven_is this a port he is referring to be blocked?03:40
=== solid_liqAFK is now known as SolidLiq
n2diygaddzilla: 10-403:41
jimmyjhTitan8990: it comes back on,, it has that issue lol03:41
Titan8990n2diy, and also there is rsnapshot which is a perl wrapper around rsync that allows for easy automated configuration of the classic incremental sync + rotate03:41
=== AfterDea1h is now known as AfterDeath
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: how do i check if a port is blocked or not03:41
Titan8990jimmyjh, wouldn't know then, havn't tried anything like that03:42
=== SolidLiq is now known as solid_liq
Titan8990jimmyjh, you could just remove the bottom panel and auto-hide the top03:42
fosajrib, theoryx oh, ok, then the next step would be something like this? : ln -s /home/fosa/Desktop/jre1.6.0_14/plugin/desktop/sun_java.desktop03:42
jimmyjhTitan8990:  yea would be nice to do,, what do you use?03:42
jimmyjhTitan8990: .. true03:42
Titan8990jimmyjh, XFCE on my desktop and icewm on my laptop03:42
steven_use port scan under network tools03:42
n2diyTitan8990: um, ok, now my head is spinning. I thought rsync had security issues? But for all I know sbackup may have them too?03:43
Titan8990jimmyjh, I like lighter-weight desktops03:43
jimmyjhTitan8990: lxde is looking nice03:43
fosajrib theoryx i'm getting a little lost from the tutorial: ln -s <JRE>/plugin/i386/<ns7 | ns7-gcc29>/libjavaplugin_oji.so03:43
dulouzhello, i was wondering what the "+" means at the end of "-rwxr-xr-x+". I never noticed it before on any files until now03:43
steven_and input the port and scan it, the system will report wiether the port is open or not03:43
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: i port scan the server that i am trying to ssh into?03:43
Titan8990n2diy, the rsync network protocol does have security issues because it is not encrypted but easily solved by using ssh instead (which it has built-in support for)03:43
jribdulouz: what file has that?03:43
steven_yes just port scan it and it will tell you03:44
Titan8990n2diy, that issue would only arise if you wanted to send the backups across the internet using the rsync daemon03:44
steven_is the server on your network or another network?03:44
dulouzjrib: some file i made in /etc/rc.d/ while trying to configure a lisp webserver03:44
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: okay scanning now03:44
steven_good :-)03:44
steven_tell me what you get and well go from there03:45
jribdulouz: http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-09/msg00459.html03:45
Titan8990dulouz, you shouldn't make files there03:46
Titan8990dulouz, make the script in /etc/init.d and use the update-rc.d tool to write the files to the /etc/rc.d directories03:46
Titan8990dulouz, its the debian way03:46
n2diyTitan8990: roger that. I have to work out the details with my friend, I can backup her box on site, or remotely, not sure which way she wants to go. I'm just trying to figure out both options.03:46
jribdulouz: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2239/ls-1?a=view has it though the man page for ls on my ubuntu and arch don't mention plus...03:46
dulouzTitan: typo, i made it in init.d03:46
Titan8990n2diy, well... there is always the problem that secure = slower due to the overhead the encryption gives03:47
steven_mib_x6iuiqx6 is the server on your network or outside? like on another network?03:47
RugHowdy all03:47
steven_Hi Rug03:47

mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: so its still scanning, only came up with port 80; its an external virtual priviate server03:47
theoryxfosa: replace <JRE> by your directory. everything else stays the same.03:47
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: i installed apache and nginx as proxy - that could be it right?03:47
YOSPOSDCC SEND ubunturocksguyshahaha03:47

dulouzjrib: that triggered something in my memory. i think it may be from chcon which is what some website said to use. off to read more on what that actually does03:48
steven_do u have a firewall or router/firewall combo by any chance?03:48
theoryxmilo_, you gotta install the language pack03:48

fosatheoryx, the jre doesn't have the /plugin/i386/ directory, does that matter?03:49

RugI'm a long-time user of ubuntu (since the Woody release) and I have a dumb problem I can't fix.  Whenever I open Firefox it opens in offline mode.  I can uncheck the 'work offline' setting, but as soon as I restart FF, it is back to offline mode again.  Any suggestions?  (I have checked about:config and that looks ok)03:49
dang-artmangroup question: if you needed to change the language, to say french.. wouldn't you start with the OS?03:49
gaddzilla@lwells are you talking about in 32-bit windows xp? because that's a common problem.03:50
jribRug: does it happen if you create a new profile?03:50
Rugdang-artman: yeah,03:50
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: i don't think so - but yesterday i built up the same thing, and it worked fine - i just had to restart the entire server03:50
n2diyUmm, she is the boyfriend! =;o)03:50
jribdang-artman: at the login screen, click on options, then language03:50
Flannelgaddzilla: Er, is that relevant at all?03:50
Rugjrib: let me check03:50
theoryxmilo_ : sudo apt-get install language-pack-fr03:50
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: yesterday, i limited ssh to port 30000, and restarted the server, and bingo it worked03:50
lwellsNo, gaddzilla, it is in Ubunut03:50
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: however, i am scared now that it will not work, so i don't want to logout03:50
steven_check your ports in your router and if not open I would open but leave none required ports closed03:50
milo_theoryx: thank you!03:51
Rugjrib: Did you mean create a new user?03:51
steven_and reboot router if it requires then retry server, if that doesn't work then do a port scan again after opening the port03:51
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: so i followed this tutorial - minus all the ssh stuff - could it be that i have nginx server that is redirecting traffic? or is that just for http?03:51
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: http://lethain.com/entry/2009/feb/13/the-django-and-ubuntu-intrepid-almanac/03:51
raviousLTSP Question: Does anyone know or know a place to find out the min sys reqs of a thin client to be able to support full speed video playback as well as flash support? I've found all kind of LTSP support sites, but nothing as far as what clients are supported and what kinda performance to expect from them.03:51
faitwhat extension do plain text files have in ubuntu?03:51
gaddzilla@lwells well 32-bit ubuntu will give you a little less than 4 gigs usable, since 32-bit processing means the max memory addressing you can use is 2^32, but 2.75 seems awfully low. Have you tried the 64-bit version, or have you tried memtest?03:51
jribRug: firefox -ProfileManager03:51
jribfait: doesn't matter03:52
Rugjrib: thanks03:52
theoryxfosa: no, but you should have something like <directory>/plugin/i386/03:52
dang-artmanso, then, milo: you need to change your system to french first03:52
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: so if i disconnect and reboot the router, i will lose my connection to the server, which means i have the chance of not being able to login?03:52
lwellsI thought i was using 64 bit Ubuntu03:52
lwellsHow can I tell?03:52
PapagenoSo I'm trying to enable two-finger scrolling on my synaptic touchpad. After including SMHConfigure "on" in my xorg.config, I suddenly have a trackpad tab in my mouse pref page, but the configs I make in xorg.conf are getting ignored for some reasons while the limited options I have in the mouse pref window do indeed have a working effect03:53
PapagenoWhat gives?03:53
devDLike Fedora Ubuntu full distro DVD doesn,t come?03:53
fosatheoryx, so <directory>/plugin/desktop isn't good?03:53
steven_is your server suppose to be accessable from the internet ?03:53

robertrankinjrdevD: could you rephrase, please?03:54
gaddzilla@lwells: run uname -a and see what it says.03:54
jribelad`: xbindkeys together with xvkbd would be one way.  imwheel another03:54
steven_also does your router say it needed to reboot?03:54
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: what do you mean by accessbile from the internet?03:54
elad`jrib, which way is better/easier?03:54
theoryxfosa: no because you want to link libjavaplugin.so in the firefox directory03:54
lwellsLinux acer 2.6.28-13-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 2 07:57:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux03:55
steven_like it the server something from home ? that is accessbile from the outside world?03:55
milo_theoryx: after having installed it, how do I switch?03:55
jribelad`: imwheel lets you configure different bindings for different windows, they're both equal in difficulty03:55
lwellsgaddzilla, what does that tell me?03:55
steven_I was gonna see if I can access it form here with your permission then I could get more of an idea of whats going on03:55
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: the server is a private cloud based virtual private server, not behind a router i believe - it should be accessible to the internet, because i have apache and nginx running on it to serve a web page03:55
gaddzilla@lwells that's the 32-bit version03:56
FrozenFireHi. I'm at a LUG right now, and the person who usually brings our projector is absent. Is there a quick way to set up a network-streaming screencast?03:56
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: also, my home computer is accessible to the internet, through a cable modem behind a router03:56
theoryxmilo_ , I'm not sure there is an option to easily switch between the two languages. My guess is you will have to remove the one you're not using.03:56
steven_ok can I see if I can access that server from here?03:56
lwellsCan I upgrade to 64-bit without having to reinstall?03:56
FrozenFireI've tried various tutorials using ffmpeg, but they fail.03:56
ctmjrmilo_:  if i remember right it is Within OpenOffice go to Tools>Options, then Language Settings>Language, and you should be able to change the language there (providing it's installed).03:56
Rugjrib: any NEW profile I create works the first time, but as soon as I re-launch it it's offline again03:56
gaddzilla@lwells: no, you'll have to do a complete reinstall03:56
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: isn't that dangerous?03:56
milo_thanks guys I'll try it03:57
dang-artmanmilo: you need to change the language of the OS first03:57
steven_or at least see if I can see the webpage and that might give me an idea of weither the connection is being blocked period03:57
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: can't you port scan it yourself?03:57
lwellsdang gaddzilla, spent like 2 days setting up everything03:57
devDrobertrankinjr, Actually I want to download a DVD for ubuntu with various packages, like fedora DVD. I downloaded Ubuntu 9.04 cd which dont have much packages. I need to download all manually.03:57
steven_well if you let jsut any do it but I am asking for permission thats why03:57
n2diymilo_, I missed your question, what are you trying to switch?03:57
WIGGMPkI am having an issue in Jaunty amd64, I upgraded to kernel 2.6.28-13 (I am now back in 2.6.28-11) and Jockey is not detecting my nvidia drivers (that are currently installed and working nvidia-glx-180)03:57
ctmjrdang-artman: no you do not03:57
dang-artmanOK!03:58
gaddzilla@lwells: well, as a last resort, there are some server packages you can install in ubuntu to enable PAE (physical address extension) and that will allow you to use the whole 4 gigs (assuming it's not a hardware issue)03:58
FlanneldevD: There is an Ubuntu DVD, yes.  Or even the alternate CD has extra packages on it.03:58
robertrankinjrFrozenfire: don't know how fast it is, but check out http://www.videolan.org/vlc/streaming.html03:58

mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: i can't give you ssh access, but i can pm you the ip address03:59
Titan8990yome, or glxinfo might tell you03:59
jribyome: aptitude search '~i~nnvidia-glx'  ?03:59
devDFlannel, But I could not see the DVD in Ubuntu official site.03:59
FloridaGuydoes ubuntu have any tools that monitors the harddrive..that lets you know when something is wrong with the drive03:59
gaddzilla@lwells restart your computer and when you see the GRUB loading message (assuming you're using GRUB and not LILO) press `esc` and boot into the memtest86 option03:59
ectospasmyome: you can use "aptitude search nvidia-glx | grep '^i'"03:59

n2diymilo_, go to prefrences keyboard, and the layout you want, close that, and then right click on your task bar, select add/remove, then keybord switcher.04:00
Titan8990FloridaGuy, called SMART04:00
FlanneldevD: Unless you have no access to the internet, the DVD is likely not what you're looking for.  Since you download 4.7G of packages, that are generally outdated by the time you get them (and you won't use all 4.7G of them anyway).  So you'll end up downloading less usually with just a regular install04:00
gaddzilla@floridaguy: cojabo is correct, smartmon tools is excellent. it will even show you the status of individual drives in a raid array (even on a hardware raid card!)04:00
Titan8990FloridaGuy, BIOS has to support it, tools are called smartmon04:00
mib_x6iuiqx6steven_: did you get pm?04:00

Nate_yes, it used to have Windows XP on it04:20
mezquitaleNate_, sounds likle a pretty bad bug, I think it must be something with your hardware, what version of ubuntu are you using?04:20
Nate_9.0404:20
dang-artmanyeah, hardware or bad install disc.. major memory corruption somewhere..04:20
dang-artmanbad RAM or hard drive sectors04:21
bastidrazorUbuntu 9.04 . in .xsession-errors i get this :: I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/razor/.compiz/session/103ea21b2b2e3f1b9a12453794948604000000031740024"  the long string changes every restart of X/GDM. it does affect compiz.04:21
Nate_It's a brand new hard drive, 500 gig04:21
mezquitaleI've had ***serious**** issues with 9.04(jaunty), it crashes my desktop  B A D L Y, 8.10 worked like a charm though, firefox crashes in 8.04 as well04:21
Nate_So you think I should download 8.10?04:22
n2diyNate_: brand new = new, untested.04:22
dang-artmanNate: it's not common, but a new drive can have bad sectors04:22
ctmjrNate_: try to start firefox in a terminal see if you get an error msg before the crash04:22
dang-artmanNo04:22
Nate_ok04:22
mezquitaleNate_,  I suggest you create another partition, around 10 gigs, then install 8.10 on that one partition and see if 8.10 works on your system04:22
faihi there04:23
nathan726Hi all04:23
Nate_I can't get the terminal to do anything before it resets04:23
dang-artmanI always try to run Spinrite on new drives04:24
mezquitaleNate_,  I have a 500 gig hard drive as well, first I installed 8.04 then installed 9.04 on my desktop, firefox crashed on both, sometimes it worked on 8.04,  9.04 works just fine on the laptop I just bought today04:24
Nate_So what would you suggest about which version to run04:24
mslNate_, You might try outputting the stdout and stderr to a file to see what is happening04:24
mezquitaleNate_,  do you have an nvidia video card?04:24
mslNate_,   firefox  2>&1  >> firefox.out04:24
mezquitaleNate_,  try what msl just suggested04:25
Nate_how do i do that04:25
Nate_i do not have an nvidia card04:25
mslNate_, Enter the command in a terminal04:25
mezquitaleNate_, are you using the machine that has the problem?04:26
Nate_no04:26
Nate_this is not on that computer04:26
Nate_but it is in front of me04:26
mezquitaleNate_, so turn on the machine that has the problem, then start a terminal and in the terminal type in what msl suggested04:26

manoloque es esto?04:33
mezquitalerusse11,  most people use alsa04:33
ectospasmmezquitale: uh, no04:34
russe11mezquitale, I was under the impression pulseaudio was default in Jaunty?04:34
musikgoat|mainmezquitale: isnt pulseaudio a front end to alsa?04:34
ectospasmpulseaudio IS the default in Intrepid and Jaunty04:34
mezquitalerusse11, I do not know, I just installed jaunty on my laptop and it actually works04:34
ectospasmpulseaudio is a sound server04:34
Nate_i was thinking mezquitale, what if I ran the live cd to see if it does the same thing04:34
russe11Yeah, the problem is everything was working great from when Jaunty was released (and before) until now, and now sound quit. I can't think what I would have done to break it.04:35
ectospasmrusse11: have you checked your mixer levels, make sure they're not turned all the way down or muted...04:35
mezquitaleNate_,  excellent idea!  I think you might have better luck with the live CD because ubuntu wont be touching your hard drive04:36
ectospasmrusse11: also, make sure pulseaudio is running.04:36
russe11ectospasm, I have, and I think I'd be hearing nothing rather than static if they were all the way down.04:36
russe11ectospasm, I also restarted a couple of times.04:36
ectospasmrusse11: if you turn them down via software, do your speakers still produce static?04:37
mezquitalerusse11, let me see the output of this:  cat /proc/asound/cards04:37

mezquitalerobertrankinjr, i have a  HORRIBLE experience in my desktop with jaunty, i gave up, im using my laptop right now, jaunty is too unstable04:38
russe11ectospasm, what's the best way to stop pulseaudio?04:38
mezquitalerussell now try this and tell me what you hear:  speaker-test -c2 -D default -t wav04:38
russe11mezquitale, Static. From various speakers ;)04:39
ectospasmrusse11: you can try sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio stop, or just use ps to determine which PID is pulseaudio, and kill -9 <PID>04:39
robertrankinjrmezuitale, are you 64bit or 32bit?04:39
russe11ectospasm, pulseaudio stop gives  * PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions04:39
robertrankinjrjust wondering, 'cause I had the same issue. formatted like ten times in a week trying to fix it... but there's an ongoing bug about it04:39
Nate_I does the same thing from the live cd mez04:40

KeblesHello fellows. I'm having a bit of trouble after compiling v2.6.30 of the Linux kernel. I'm repeatedly receiving errors whenever I use apt-get, although the installation never fails. Here's the output from installing Epiphany (but it does it on any installation). http://asdfasf.ath.cx/aptgeterror.txt06:14
bullgard4n2diy: Great! Can you recognize the origin of the brand's name? It comes from the German 'juenger' which means 'young man (almost adult)'.06:14
yowshiHydrant: msl dmesg does not register a recpluggin in of the device which means somethings jhammed probably the module no?06:15

RoastedQuick Question - On XP, if I go start - run - \\otherxpcomputernamehere I can see that computers shared documents. How can I do this from within Ubuntu? How can I view an XP computers shared documents on my network?06:16
whoisIts showing as a dvd drive for some reason06:16
Hydrantyowshi: and you checked /var/log/sslog too ?06:16
yowshimsl: i think so but modprobe -r is of no use i tried that once already and modprobe crashed06:16
whoishow can I get the hard drive to show as a hard drive instead of a dvd06:16
Hydrantyowshi: you probably don't have to screw around with modules06:16
Hydrantyowshi: do a lsusb06:16

ubottuRoasted: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.06:17
RoastedI have samba installed, but that doesn't answer my question.06:17
Hydrantyowshi: anyways, I have to go... good luck06:17
RoastedMy question is how do I view shared documents on an XP machine. What do I do to view them. Where do I go. Network? Connect to server?06:18
mslyowshi, You can try rmmod to remove the module.  Looks like it is a more potent option than modprobe.06:18
whoisI have  a hard drive that I just added to ubuntu. Instaed of showing as a hard drive (on the mount icon) it shows as a DVD icon06:18
KeblesCould anyone help me out?06:18

yowshin2diy: defunct processes are unkillable by any ,ethod. and apparently normally harmless. i have found though that when a process dies while using a usb device like a webcam or joystick it will jam said device and it's related modules making it unavailable to any other programme and the modules dont respond to a modprobe -r06:56
n2diyyowshi: so kill the process?06:57
gemini996elfMobile, hahahahah06:58

mslyowshi, I don't think anyone here has the expertise to fix this issue without reboot.  I don't think there is a solution without reboot....06:58
yowshin2diy: as i said the defunct process is unkillable. for example if i am using dosbox and dosbox crashes so i kill it manually the process never dissappears from the ps-A or top list it just becomes listed as <defunct> but still somehow retains control of the frigging joystick06:59
w0jrli might just have to reboot06:59
yowshimsl: that makes webcams and joysticks and usb mice and any other non flash disk related usb device uneable to me07:00

gerardagdahi guys, i got a big problem, oahm my pc is working fine beforee then i didnt used it for about 2 weeks then when i returned, it got uber slow...i dont know what had happened, tahm when booting, its fine just like before but when it comes to the gnome part and the running of applications it slows down...do you have any ideas or suggestions on how can i solve this without reformatting again?09:33
CybertinusI do have an SD-card here, so I can boot the installer. But I also want to install Ubuntu NBR on a different SD-card09:33
Cybertinuswill it work if I boot the installer from SD-card 1 and give an option to load everything into RAM, remove the SD-card, put in SD-card 2 and then press the install button?09:34

imagitronicshey all. I have a Matrox TripleHead2Go, unfortunately, it doesn't display my BIOS or anything (meaning it bypasses grub) so I can't boot Ubuntu. Is there like a windows utility or something that I can run that will force my computer to boot Ubuntu the next-time only?09:44

WeazelONhey guys, can someone please offer a good player that shows lyrics automatically as the song plays ?09:45
arvind_khadriWeazelON, use screenlets and then get lyrics screenlet from gnome-look.org09:46
dragonimagitronics: are you sure the BIOS is not displayed?09:46
imagitronicsdragon: yeah, my screens are completely black (power save mode) until the windows logo comes up09:46
dragonimagitronics: windows vista?09:46
limgongIf i may, repeat my origional problem for you indus.  I seem to get a sort of blue plaid scroll up my screen when i start ubuntu in normal instead of safe mode.  It does not go away or change.  Nor, does ubuntu load at all when it does this.09:46
imagitronicsdragon: XP09:46
WeazelONi'm not familier with "screenlets" how do i get that?09:46
hotspeedBOPMcan somebody help me09:46
arvind_khadriWeazelON, just apt-get install it09:47
dragonimagitronics: windows has probably rewritten your MBR09:47
hotspeedBOPMhow do i enable "ssh server" in ubuntu-desktop09:47
WeazelONaight cool i'll do it now thanks09:47
nztaldoes setting up a computer cluster, through say, ubuntu server, require manually compiling your own kernel ?  i've heard of a number of live cd's that automate "instant-grid"09:47
induslimgong: hmm do you get a booting screen with a progress bar before this happens?09:47
dragonimagitronics: did you install Windows AFTER Ubuntu?09:47
MyrttihotspeedBOPM: install it.09:47
arvind_khadrihotspeedBOPM, install it09:47
limgongnope not at all.09:47
Titan8990hotspeedBOPM, sudo apt-get install openssh-server09:47
imagitronicsdragon: neg. It's still there. If I unhook the triplehead2go, I can get to grub and boot linux (but with only the one monitor)09:47
induslimgong: i mean this happens after grub boot loader asks you to boot?09:47
imagitronicsdragon: requires me to crawl under the desk to unhook it before I plan to use linux09:47
limgongscreen just goes black and then, WOMP, blue plaid.09:47
Unislashanyone know the run command to allocate the amount of memory you give to a java executable?09:48
induslimgong: iam wanting to know at which stage exactly it happens09:48
vigoimagitronics: computerhope.com may have the answer, it sounds like what dragon is saying though, MBR is not recognizing the GRUB.09:48
limgonghmmm.09:48
gerardagdadragon, currently the xorg is at the topmost of the output of the "top", but how will i know who consumes the most of my memory, is it by MEM%?09:48
limgongRight after the boot screen with the many choices.09:49
shunobiesDoes anyone here know how to get Quick Synergy to work?09:49
imagitronicsvigo: it is recognizing grub. It's just that when I have the three monitors all connected I can't "see" it to select Linux09:49
induslimgong: hmm but it does boot into safe mode?09:49
shunobiesI have been playing with it all night and no luck09:49
hotspeedBOPMtitan8990  you mean sshserver is not installed by default?09:49

dragongerardagda: you're looking for CPU usage in `top`. Try changing the sort order.09:51
imagitronicsvigo: yep, works fine with one monitor, I guess the problem is triplehead specific, but I can't find any info on it09:51
gerardagdadragon, how?09:51
imagitronicsvigo: I guess the triplehead is trying to be cute by not showing you the bios screen or any "startup" information09:51
limgongindus, oh yes.  I get a screen that says fix somthing or nother, and boot in normal and such like that.09:51

induslimgong: did you check in menu >system>administration>hardware drivers?09:53

ubottuFor Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto09:53
limgongindus, For what exactly?09:53
limgongindus, the drivers?09:53
gerardagdadragon, i've already closed the "firefox" but why is it still in there?09:54
induslimgong: ubuntu installs the ati drivers for u and you can check if its enabled in there09:54
imagitronicsvigo: now that I think of it, from the Linux side it would be easy, just a sed script to modify /boot/grub/menu.lst for the windows partition next time09:54
dragonlimgong: start diagnosing with the X server's log09:54
imagitronicsvigo: but I wouldn't know how to go about setting it back from the windows side09:54

vigoimagitronix: That would or could be a bash script, try fred langa or something like that, you could bash that, @echo 'do this' @echo 'do that', @echo 'forget input from BIOS' and like that, is fun stuff.09:56

The_WarlockGuest81581: actually i figured out the previous issue...it needed a quirk :)11:37
SlartJenk: I use scite, editra or plain gedit for text editing11:37
Guest81581lol11:37
Guest81581so whats the issue now11:37
perblJenk: and if you want to _understand_ the language, you don't need an IDE maskin out things with code generation and stuff for you11:38
betzAnyone knows if there is a EHCP irc channel?11:38
rekanyone able to setup the wireless connection with damn small linux?11:38
JenkDo i then use vim or something like that ?11:38
The_WarlockGuest81581: but the change only is in effect when i edit those files and restart xserver...the moment i logout or restart the box the changes dont take effrect unless i redit the files and retsrt the xserver using cntl alt backspace11:38
JyZyXELwhy isn't the Gnome Weater Report plugin not letting me to adjust the settings?11:38
perblif you manage to learn yourself vim, that is a terrific editor11:38
JyZyXELwhere are the settings stored?11:39
perblit should be noted that vim is something of a challenge to learn, but once you learn it, you will probably use it a lot and not want to go back to a regular editor :)11:39
Jenkperbl:yes, i'd like that, but i know neither head nor tails of vim ...11:39
mrwesperbl, better yet, vim-full11:39
vattsVIM PWNZ!11:39
vattsaye, so does Gvim11:40
vatts:D11:40
perblJenk: but if you want to use an IDE, I think eclipse has kinda good support for C nowadays11:40
Guest81581so basically edit xserver conf files?11:40
The_WarlockGuest81581: its weird that i need to reedit files which already have the required parameters...and then xserver restart fixes it till the next logout/reboot11:40
spikeanybody running jaunty with encrypted root that knows of a good tutorial to set that up?11:40
The_Warlockyes...11:40
Guest81581i love nano11:40
spikeis any install CD offering that option?11:40
Jenkperbl:yes, but it supports Java much better.11:40
spikeand make it not a pita to setup, that is11:40
perblJenk: yep11:40
mrwesI like nano too11:41
Guest81581there shud be a command that reconfigures your configuration11:41
Guest81581my home directory is encrypted11:41
perblJenk: but my claim is still that to learn basic skills in a language, you are much better off without an IDE if you have a good text editor that has good support for the language you are learning11:41
Jenkperbl:just started c recently as part of curriculum in college, so i thought an IDE for C would be a better idea..11:42
Guest81581hmmm so xinitrc invokes the /etc/X11/XSession11:42
SlartJenk: I have to agree with perbl.. if you start using an IDE with lots of features you'll spend more time learning the IDE than learning the actual language11:42
perblJenk: perhaps the course material suggests an editor for you*?11:42

The_WarlockGuest81581: yeah.....i have seen so many students starting C with turbo C and when they r given a unix box they r left clueless of how to write a C program11:45
JenkWell, if IDE's are bad for learning a language, why do people create them ?11:45
grawityEh, we had to learn PASCAL at school this year...11:45
PingFloydJenk: there's nothing wrong with using an IDE11:45

Guest81581maybe when you become a not so newbie11:53
The_Warlockcyberghoser1, i needed a couple of hours just to find my way thru it a couple of years ago11:53
Slartaurilliance: hmm.. I thought there was a help function.. my bad11:53
Guest81581Jenk, but if you really wanna go for IDE then get netbeans11:53
Slartaurilliance: anyways.. I think cpu is the combined cpu usage.. cpu1 is for cpu 1 and so on11:53
cyberghoser1The_Warlock - well i started using java as main core, then compiling the project is quite good, but ofcourse C is another thing11:54
aurillianceyeah I was wondering if that'w what it is. Thanks, Slart for confirming :P11:54

Guest81581oh sux11:58
cyberghoser1The_Warlock - http://gambas.sourceforge.net/en/main.html11:58
Guest81581well if you had the quirks then deffinitely it wont work11:58
cyberghoser1Jenk - of course11:59
Jenkcyberghoser1, edubuntu would help learning C ?11:59
jimlovell777Can a kernel module be downloaded from someone/somewhere and be used on my computer without issue? I'm trying to use my laptop's built in MMC card reader but to do so requires a kernel module and I don't want to have to compile it myself.12:00
cyberghoser1Jenk - if you really want to learn C, C++ and other derivatives, the os choice is not the most important thing, you will start at command prompt, learn the compiler and the most important, the syntax12:00
ikoniajimlovell777: it depends on a lot of things12:00
The_WarlockGuest81581, you mean it wont work on restarts ?12:00
Guest81581i think you can but you will have to recompile12:01
ikoniajimlovell777: where are you getting the module from12:01
Guest81581The_Warlock, what do you mean?12:01
Jenkcyberghoser1, okay, and ?12:01
The_WarlockJenk, the best book that i would recommend for C is C programming language by ritchie...its a bit tough to grasp but its awesome12:01
cyberghoser1Jenk - and? if you want to learn better start now :P12:02
The_Warlockyou said if i had quirks it wont work12:02
Guest81581i would suggest DIETEL12:02
jimlovell777ikonia: No where, haven't found a site to do such a thing but I was curious if it would work should such a site exist. Is there a way to download the kernel source and only build/compile that module? Compiling the entire kernel takes hours on this computer and that's a lot of hassle for one module.12:02
Guest81581i mean if you really have quirks then the backports thingy wouldnt work12:02
The_WarlockGuest81581, ahh okies12:02
ikoniajimlovell777: it's very speicifc on a permodule/perkernel basis12:03
Guest81581coz backports deal with the driver aspect while the quirks seems to be a manufacturing error12:03

slestakgood morning.  i want to install 64bit jaunty on a machine that is currently 32bit 9.04.  I am not trying to convert, I will do a reinstall.  one thing i would like though is create a text dump of the packages I have installed (not in core) that I can use as an input file on the new install to "get it back" to where I have it.14:00
slestakaptoncd is not what i want because that makes debs right?14:01

tntcman, it's pretty awesome that I didn't have to install anything to see those korean charachters.15:43
eurythmiaPici, how did you recognize it ?15:43
rohanCybeRebel: using www.zamzar.com/url15:43

CybeRebelrohan thank you :)15:44
eurythmiaCybeRebel, there are firefox extentions to handle it ... quite slick.15:44
x2ne1xPici // thank^^15:44
rohanCybeRebel: np :) there are many other methods though..15:44
Picieurythmia: geoip.pl script for irssi tells me the location of the hostname.15:44
rohanbut i find zamzar the most convenient15:44
eurythmiaPici, ah. cool.15:44
CybeRebelubuntu comunity ROCKS :)15:44
x2ne1xsorry, I am studying english.15:44
tntchey, if my netbook requires third party drivers that are open source, should I report a bug about that?  I have a latitude 2100 that neads realteks version of the alsa drivers to work correctly (mic and all that)15:44
rohaneven otherwise, characters which are "chinese looking" with lots of circles in them are definitely korean15:44
sipioreanda: have a look in /etc/ldap/schema.15:44
tntcbut the drivers are indeed open source.15:44
rohanjapanese and chinese characters don't have circles15:45
eurythmiatntc, I think that would be an alsa bug.15:45
bsltntc: you can do whatever you want15:45
CybeRebelrohan what is best for beginners?15:45
eurythmiatntc, (request for improvement bug, that is)15:45
rohanCybeRebel: the zamzar method is most convenient, and you get the video in the format you want15:45
tntcbsl: I could punch strangers in the face on the street.  Doesn't mean I should :)15:46
eurythmiatntc, have you tried rebuilding the alsa modules first? I have an intel hda card, (which is a realtec chipset), and rebuilding the alsa modules using module-assistant fixed my issues.15:46
CybeRebelrohan WOOHOO :) thank you very much :)15:46
x2ne1xbest for beginners?..15:47
tntceurythmia: rebuilding them? got a doc on how to do that?  I built the modules by hand using the actual alsa sources (first) and then realtek's sources (second)15:47
eurythmiatntc, hold on, I should be able to find a doc, it's pretty easy though :)15:48
ctmjrtntc: to answer your question no it is not a bug15:48
tntceurythmia: heh. I'm not too worried.  I can make complicated things work too.15:48
tntcctmjr: ok. feature request or something then?15:49
eurythmiatntc, use "Method A" from here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gutsy_Intel_HD_Audio_Controller15:49
eurythmiatntc, so, you're like me then ... like the easy way, but the complicated stuff works too :)15:49
tntceurythmia: hehe. I actually already did method B.  If method B didn't work, doesn't that mean Method A won't as well?15:50
eurythmiatntc, you should be able to get away with running "sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart" instead of "shutdown -r now"15:50
eurythmiatntc, not necessarily.15:50

eurythmiatntc, might have the same effect, I'm not 100% sure ... I think you'll have to unload/reload the alsa modules for everything to take effect (so, restarting is prolly easier)15:52

zirodaystaar2: you can disable unneeded services, or use a lighter DE. Which section of ubuntu are you looking to improve? It might be a better use of your time to upgrade (certain) parts of your computer.15:58
eurythmiaXet, try rebooting, and when you get to the grub menu, hit 'e' to edit the boot command, remove 'quiet' and 'splash' from the command, then hit 'b' to boot ... when the boot process freezez, take a picture of your screen, and then upload it to an imagebin so I can see it.15:58
staar2ziroday, yeah the computer upgrade would be better but it's the laptop so i haven't room15:59

space_cadetq0_0p, are you missing some sections?17:39
q0_0pi want to add a resolution17:39
space_cadetq0_0p, there isn't a driver listed in there17:39
Titan8990q0_0p, many people that think that they need to add a resolution really just need to use a driver that support the resolution they are looking for17:39
q0_0pim able to use compiz17:40
Titan8990q0_0p, becuase HAL will detect those resolutions17:40
q0_0pwhy isn't driver listed in xorg?17:40

NationiantWell I'll try debian17:40
q0_0pso my resolutions were already detected and no point in messing with xorg?17:40
Titan8990q0_0p, because HAL loads the driver, a xorg.conf is not required as of xorg 1.5, only for proprietary drivers17:40

hatter243sorry!19:34
hatter243gabriel,  that was for you ^^19:34
ironfroggy_dajhorn: i think it runs my heartbeat script every minute19:34
dajhornironfroggy_: That will invoke the job every second, and some crons won't let you do that.19:34
ironfroggy_yeah thats not right, my mistake19:34
dajhornironfroggy_: You probably want something like: */60 * * * * to get once a minute.19:34
gabeodesshatter243: for what?19:35
dajhornironfroggy_: And try to use a lockfile in the script, or somesuch, so that invocations don't run at the same time.19:35
jribdajhorn: the finest time measurement used by cron is minutes, isn't it?19:35

dsdeizwhat the, .gnomerc isn't also working19:36

dajhornironfroggy_: Note that the actual heartbeat package has this behavior built-in.19:37
hatter243dajhorn ironfroggy_ , That's true, you must remember though, the cron daemon only wakes once a minute to check if jobs need to be run. A cronjob with * * * * * will only run once a minute. Never more frequently than that19:37

LillymonDoing "sudo apt-get upgrade" is now telling me "The following packages have been kept back: amarok amarok-common linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic". What the hell does this mean and how do I install these updates?20:47
cgasebsebseb: heh i guess that is more for WiFi Internet connection more than kdb20:47
MrKeunerhi, in jaunty recently gnpme applets started crashing upon log in20:47
TannerSit does shwo splahs for about 4 seconds but goes to text na ddoes not show on shutdown20:47
racecar56Dr_Willis, that sounds right20:47
bastidrazorTannerS,  you're not on the latest kernel. have you done updates lately?20:47
sebsebseb!keyboard | cga20:47
MrKeuner...gnome applets20:47
ubottucga: To switch your keyboard layout on GNOME: System -> Preferences -> Keyboard (GNOME) - KDE: K -> System Settings -> Regional & Language -> Keyboard Layout (KDE) - Xfce: see https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/xubuntu/desktopguide/C/switch-keyboard-layout.html - See also !Shortcuts20:47
sebsebsebcga: that's no good either by the looks of it20:47
racecar56Dr_Willis, i have a terrible beat up laptop and it's card reader works with ubuntu fine20:47
cgasebsebseb: he, thanks anyway20:47
Dr_Willishubu:  that sounds like the right device to me.. that would be partition1 on that device.. you MIGHT be able to use 'sudo fdisk /dev/mmcblk0' to repartitionit.  the 'p1' at the end is for 'partition 1' on the device .20:47
SandGorgoni see that some of the windows in ubuntu (like config windows) are semi-transparent... where do I turn this off in simple-ccsm ?20:47
racecar56Dr_Willis, it's 2 years old and it has paper blocking a fan :<20:47

Dr_Willisracecar56:  :)  its amazing whaat those fans can suck in.20:48
hubuDr_Willis: How would I make it appear in gparted/any other GUI partition editor?20:48
TannerSbastidrazor odd enough i just did one few days ago..unless a new one jsut came out and i mean just...or maybe i edited the file wrong :S how can io be sure which version im running20:48
racecar56Dr_Willis, just think: how the heck did it get IN the grill20:48
Dr_Willishubu:  no idea.. tell gparted the exact device.. or use fdisk. I can set up partitions with fdisk inless time then it takes gparted to startup  :)20:48
Dr_Willishubu:  what are you even wanting to do to 'partition' it for?20:49
bastidrazorTannerS, from that menu.lst you are using .11 when the latest available is .13 .. do sudo update-grub20:49
hubuDr_Willis: Trying to run androids app from an ext2 partition.20:49
bastidrazorTannerS, that will detect if other kernels are installed. but yo ushould do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade20:49
psieHey guys, I installed Ubuntu 9.04 like you install it to a HD on my USB drive. It now fails to start on other PCs than mine due to a grub error! Is there an opportunity to get this working?20:50
TannerSbastidrazor might be me, i deleted a kernel yesterday since i gave me like 3 kernals to boot maybe i deleted wrong one...20:50
LillymonHello? What do I have half a dozen updates that won't install?20:50
sebsebseb!external |  psie20:50
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about external20:50
psiesebsebseb: ?20:50
bastidrazorTannerS, very possible. the best way is to uninstall kernels via synaptic or apt-get20:50
sebsebsebpsie: maybe you can some how, also  there can be issues  booting Ubuntu from an external  hard drive on differnet computers, because of differnet hardware20:51
dakarn2if i made an x session to call on a startup script that launched my WM. the script is in my ~ dir, if i symlink it to etc/rc2.d should everything load correctly20:51

eNazkul..............20:52
dakarn2dr_willis: we removed gdm all window managers and are trying to load compiz as standalone20:52
Dr_Willisneed_help:  you dont 'chown' files/dirs on a vfat partition. If you need other ownership/permissions you use differnt options when you MOUNT  the vfat filesystem.20:52
drogit doesn't work :-s i need the specific package to play mp3's on amarok....dunno what's wrong with it :-s20:53

Eurosebsebseb,  is that user friendly im a total newbie20:55

Eurobastidrazor,  does it also format the HDD? sebsebseb  ? ? (GParted)20:56

BitWraithdoes Ubuntu use CPU Frequency scaling of any kind out of the box?20:59
Eurosebsebseb, bastidrazor  i want to make sure that all 3 OS's can see/ read/write onto my DATA partition20:59
hansahello20:59
CShadowRunBitWraith yes20:59
hansahow20:59
BitWraithhow do I turn it on, or is it on by default?20:59
dajhornBitWraith: There is a gnome applet "CPU Scaling Monitor" that will show you the current speed.20:59
anto9usMrKeuner, make sure you own all the files in your home directory, I've found that can often be the culprit20:59
Eurosebsebseb, well in totaly new to Ubutnu, and want to get used to it,  buy the end of the year i wanna be a Ubutnu geek :P20:59
dakarn2dr_willis: so if i remove the display manager -- everything will be loaded from ~/.xinitrc  ?21:00

MrKeuneranto9us, I'll try thanks21:00
hansahow can I install yahoo messenger?21:00
sebsebsebEuro: well being an only Ubuntu geek is not that impressive, but being a Linux geek that knows a lot that's something,  that means you have to do other distros as well,  and not just Ubuntu21:00
racecar56hansa, you don't21:00
racecar56hansa, you use pidgin21:00
Eurobastidrazor, sebsebseb  question, ext3 can be read/writen from Windoes XP / Win 7 ?21:00

jayaretwoI can usually run most Windows apps in WINE.21:02
Euroracecar56, extsfsd  ?? ?21:02

sebsebsebEuro: you can probably play some 2D directx ones pretty good though21:03
Eurosebsebseb,  ok well if i do run a VM i might be using applications that eat RAM such as Adobe Photoshop & Dreamweaver21:03

GalbadoreMy VM peg out at 100% cpu on some things and locks up21:03
sebsebsebEuro: Ideally you should  use  opensource/freesoftware alternatives, and find out  what this kind of software is really about, by  visiting http://www.gnu.org and then going to the philosphey section21:03
Eurosebsebseb,  n0 problem i only play games on my XBOX21:03
sebsebseb!freedom |  Euro21:04
ubottuEuro: 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/licensing21:04
TannerSbastidrazor no clue, but i found out that i do have initrd.img-2.6.28-13-generic so i guess i just edited the menu.lst file wrong i fixed it so mind if i restart?21:04
hansaits enough 512mb memory for create virtual windows drive?21:04
jayaretwoopen the Synaptic Package Manager and search for WINE21:04
sebsebsebEuro: apparnatlly Windows 7 will work in a virtual machine on 1GB RAM,  and  Dreamweaver should be fine, and certain versions can  work in Wine same for Photoshop.   Photoshop  would probably be ok in a vm as well21:04

sebsebsebmarshviperX: as a result most hardware will just work,  it's only things like graphics cards, where you may need to install a driver for full graphics card suppourt.  and also wireless where you may need to install a driver,  or in this case use a program that gets a Windows driver working for wireless21:16

pumpkinseedHello. I am trying to transfer video from my camcorder to my pc. I am running Ubuntu 9.04 64bit and have installed LiVES 1.0.0-pre1. My camcorder connects to my machine via firewire, but LiVES does not seem to be detecting my camcorder via the firewire port. It is telling me "Couldn't get 1394 handle" and "Is ieee1394, driver, and raw1394 loaded?" Can anyone help?21:16

sebsebsebTannerS: if your going to attempt  hibernate/sleep I think even with 4GB RAM, your meant to have  8GB SWAP.  double the RAM.   if your not going to bother with that, well you don't really need swap with 4GB RAM21:18
sebsebseb!swap |  TannerS21:18
ubottuTannerS: 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 info21:18

sweetchildofminehey guys, I've got a bunch of music files in a directory of mine and I'd like to make links to them in another dir, in the format source file=/home/sweetchildofmine/My\ Music/musicfile.mp3 destination link=/playlists/sample/(counter number starting at 25).mp3.

marshviperXsebsebseb: ok thanks, I'm going to try it tomorrow. I gotta go now. Thanks for your help!21:19

JayXwhats the difference from a primary partition ad a extented?22:39
dajhornJayX: Extended partitions are actually inside a primary partition.22:39
dajhornJayX: Due to quirks of history, PC-style computers can only have a maximum of four primary partitions, which are real partitions.22:40
colloguywait aren't logical partitions inside an extended?22:40
JayXdajhorn so if i am partitioning my drive to install win xp along with ubuntu i should make 1 primary partition (the whole drive) and then devide the primary into extented?22:41
dajhornJayX: You'll get goofy drive letters if you put Microsoft Windows in an extended partition.22:41
JayXdajhoorn so make 2 primary partitions22:42
|newbie|thomc: In fact: All the (big) cities which have more than one airport (ex: London, Paris, NewYork....) had choices (equals to there number of airport) in Ubuntu 8.10. Now, I can see only one; the triangle for multiple choice has disappeared in 9.04. Can you confirm it on your system?22:42
dajhornJayX: Most modern partitioning tools will hide the primary/extended complexity from you.22:42
JayXdajhorn so make 2 primary partitions , im in Gparted @ the momemnt22:42

oosiris@dajhorn - Auto apt helps in installing missing dependencies22:42
enduser000does anyone know how this would work?22:42
dajhornoosiris: There is a tool that does exactly what you need, I just never use it, so I can't remember the name.22:43
KlunkHi guys, can someone help me with a jaunty problem. I have just plugged in a usb disk and lsusb shows it on bus 1 channel 6, but I do not have a /dev/sb??? device for it. sudo blkid does not list it either. How can I mount this disk?22:43
dajhornJayX: Yes, you can do it that way.22:43
dajhornJayX: If you've got a clean disk, then I recommend that you install XP first, Ubuntu second, and let the installers partition for you.22:43
thomc|newbie|: yes, I am running 8.10 and I have a choice for Paris. Unfortunately I'm not a position to confirm if that's the case in 9.04.22:43

guntbert!ot | erik__23:03
ubottuerik__: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks!23:03
FiReSTaRTCybertinus: that's interesting as i wanted to play around with encryption.. since i'm not hardcore into it, i can wait until it gets released and learn for now :P23:03
Vincent_kHi all.. I have this issue with ramzswap being used for hibernation instead of my diskswap? any ideas23:03
CybertinusFiReSTaRT: well, it actually isn't that hard to setup :). Just download the alternative install CD, and select the option during the partition section :)23:04
ntemisconfigure: error: At least one of ncursesw/ncurses/pdcurses/curses library must be present23:04
CybertinusFiReSTaRT: and you *must* have an sperate /boot partion, which *isn't* encrypted. Otherwise you can't boot :)23:04
savidHi, I'm trying to build a python library that uses cpp (yapgvb) in ubuntu,  and I'm getting this error:  "error: types.h: No such file or directory"23:04

FiReSTaRTCybertinus: that might even wait until ubuntu 9.10 or i can just try it out on the desktop where i have jaunty beta currently installed when i get back to canada23:05
|thomson|hey ho :) .. I was wondering whether it's possible to encrypt the whole ubuntu system partition using truecrypt.. in windows that's no problem23:05
FiReSTaRTCybertinus: dont wanna screw around with my only computer on this continent :P23:05
FiReSTaRT|thomson|: talk to Cybertinus ;)23:05
sebsebseb|thomson|: you can encrypt with  whatever they have on the alternate CD23:05
CybertinusFiReSTaRT: heh, yeah that sound like a sensible idea, to keep you're only computer working :p23:06
sebsebseb|thomson|: when doing a clean install23:06
usr13I'm not sure what the attraction to encrypted filesystem is.  Can someone enlighten me to what advantages one would enjoy with encrypted file-systems?23:06
FiReSTaRT|thomson|: even though i think you could do it post-install with truecrypt but i haven't tried it.. so far i've only used other implementations of it (memory sticks and files)23:06
Cybertinussebsebseb, |thomson|: the alternate install uses the kernel encryption modules, which is a part of the device mapper23:07
Cybertinussebsebseb, |thomson|: which is something different then TrueCrypt23:07
amseidlerHow do you install Windows Live mail with wine?23:07
sebsebseb|thomson|: you didn't have to pm me that, and yes there  is an option on the alternate CD to have a clean install encrypted23:07
FiReSTaRTusr13: in case someone steals your computer and tries to get into your personal data, they're basically s.o.l.23:07
sebsebsebamseidler: mail???  do you mean messenger?23:07
amseidlersebsebseb: No, I mean mail23:08
Cybertinussebsebseb, |thomson|: but with the kernel encryption module you can encrypt your enter system (except for /boot) :). I'm running such a system now (on my Eee 901, installed on an SD-card, which makes it *SLOW* :p)23:08
FiReSTaRTusr13: it's also useful for us that are a bit on the paranoid side when it comes to the government :P23:08

amseidlerI prefer a client23:08

usr13FiReSTaRT: Thanks for the explaination.23:09
