helmethedd8.04 to 8.1000:00
naiand wich one should i install if i want a basic gnome but with nice fonts? (no gdm, no evolution, no ekiga...)00:00
kev2121deany, why #kubuntu?00:00
deanykev2121, hmm, well I thought it was00:00
deanykev2121, maybe not then.  kernel and basic hardware support is the same, the rest are kde apps....00:01
VCoolionai: check in synaptic or by "aptitude show packagename"; you'll need at least gnome and gnome-core I think but probably they depend on each other; gdm is the login window, are you sure you don't want that?00:01
bishopHh why not upgrade to 9?00:01
cabreybishop, depends on your hardware really00:02
usr13helmethedd: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-upgrade-ubuntu-8.04-to-ubuntu-8.10-desktop-and-server00:02
bishopcabrey yep00:02
usr13helmethedd: But the easiest way is to get the Alternate CD and just upgrade from it.00:02
shunobiesCould someone tell me how to find your ip address in the terminal setting?00:02
psychhi, whats the best command to copy an entire partition to another disk ?00:03
deanykev2121, there are some good kde apps tho, put some of the ubuntu ones to shame..   lets not mention brasero compared to k3b..00:03
usr13shunobies: ifconfig00:03
cabreyshunobies, ifconfig00:03
psychi planned to do it using a live cd00:03
deanykev2121, brasero is a joke.00:03

psychonce clonezilla dont work good with logical partitions00:03
cabreydeany, brasero is fine, it works what else do you want?00:03
kev2121deany, I see..00:03
LewisSharpSmall question. How safe is it to upgrade a linux version (example to 8.0.4 LTS). I am wondering because if it's not safe, I'd need to do a ghost of my main partition or something close to that in case of a major problem.00:03
deanycabrey, for you maybe00:03
VCoolionai: gnome-desktop-environment contains all the extra apps , including web browsing, email, CD burning and ripping, encryption tools, audio and video playback, network and communication tools,  document viewers, remote desktop utilities, and much more.00:04
deanycabrey, I and at least 5 other people I know it dont00:04
naiouch00:04
naii don't want anything of that00:04
kev2121deany, so, apps do not have the same name?00:04
nai(that's why i installed the minimal version so i can only install what i need now)00:04
usr13LewisSharp: You're in a good place actually, 8.04 is LTS and, well, that's  a pretty good place to stay.00:04
LewisSharpno, I mean to that version. I'm a few version down actually00:05
LewisSharpI'm not 100% sure which version I am at right now00:05
usr13LewisSharp: Oh, upgrading TO 8.04  sorry... I didn't read carefully.00:05
LewisSharp:)00:05
cabreydeany, whatever, i'm not getting into a debate over burning software of all things00:05
deanycabrey, and brasero has less features..  It might work for you, thats great.00:05
cabrey;)00:05
hipitihopcan someone please help me put grub on an usb attached drive, I have copied the boot (ext3) extended and swap from another drive already00:05
deanycabrey, even shell tools work better00:05
VCoolionai: you need gnome-core then00:05
usr13LewisSharp: lsb_release -a00:06
VCoolionai: run "aptitude show gnome-core" to see what it contains00:06
nztalmy dvd burner, doesn't have burnproof technology, it has some other similar technology so that option is greyed out when i right click "write iso"  to disc.  any chance its being utilized ?00:06

laegis there a way to make sudo apt-get show me everything libgtk*?00:09
shunobiesI can't view my routers admin page in browser because it will only work on Internet Explorer not FF what should i do?00:10
VCoolionai: I think you'll need (one of) the libgnome packages if you only want gnome itself; anyway uninstall gnome-core and run "sudo apt-get autoremove" and you're back where you started00:10

papnaterr_, You'd be able to store nontrivial amounts of data and extra software on it.01:02
Arkhalisterr_: depends on the size of the live cd01:02
rwwScottG: if the CD tray is open, -T and -t will do the same thing01:02
ScottGrww: Wait i lied01:02
ScottGrww: Yea01:02
papnaScottG, If you don't know, -t is for you--then you know it will end up closed.01:02

Arkhalisthere is even an app out there to take the live cd file (even windows xp) and make it bootable on a thumb drive01:07
redsoxkinghello everyone01:07
rwwlaeg: when you type in "pidgin", bash looks in your $PATH variable and looks in every directory in there, from left to right, until it finds one. You can see what's in $PATH with "echo $PATH".01:08
Arkhalisdoes it all for you01:08
cabreyArkhalis, why do you need >1 GB drive?01:08
terr_Arkhalis: you will need to 1) install the driver in the mkinitrd helper file - means you need to man mkinitrd01:08
terr_Arkhalis: or modprobe blah01:08
Arkhaliscabrey: never said he did... i was saying mine was 2gb but it was extra space01:08
cabreyahh mk :)01:08

terr_then your make sequence01:48
cabreypastebin it!01:48
terr_damn - I forget the make sequence01:48
Arkhalisok i will one sec01:48
donnyshould i uninstall wine and reinstal it ?01:48
laegcabrey: you there mate? i sudo aptitude remove pidgin, sudo apt-get autocleanand then tried sudo aptitude install pidgin but it says bash: /usr/local/bin/pidgin: No such file or directory01:48
terr_Arkhalis: do this for me:  cd /var/log; dmesg and tell me the bogomips01:48
thinkle79fattybutterpance: Thanks -- I think that's a different graphics driver though. I found this -- http://mok0.wordpress.com/2009/05/25/ubuntu-on-the-dell-mini-10-2/ -- which has a comment that refers to exactly what I'm experiencing. Unfortunately, the solution (install psb-kernel-source) isn't working as I'm getting error building the module.01:48
cabreylaeg, have you tried logging out and back in again?01:49
geirhadonny: Sure you got the right directory?01:49
donnywich directory ? were the wow files are ?01:49
geirhadonny: Try this. In the terminal type wine followed by  a space, then drag the file installer.exe onto the terminal window, then run the command01:50
donnyi think it workes01:51
laegcabrey: before or after install?01:51
Arkhalisterr_: where do i find the bogomips in dmesg?01:51
cabreylaeg, after01:51
terr_Arkhalis: at the top01:51
geirhadonny: Then you had probably "cd"-ed to the wrong directory earlier01:51
donnythank you geirha01:51
laegcabrey: when i install pidgin it also doesn't put any shortcuts in the apps menu like it used to in case that's relevant..01:51

terr_Arkhalis: damn - I can't find my goat book!01:54

nellmathewumm.. how the heck do i get outta zoom desktop in compiz? =X01:54
usr13BrianV: Well, yes, but why not just let the install program repartion and re-format the space for you?01:54
VCoolioDarck1: did you also unplug on the monitor side? That was crucial to the guy I remembered; should have mentioned before; http://cafelinux.org/forum/index.php?topic=25.0;msg=159 ; otherwise I'm out of ideas01:54
BrianVusr13: because I have an existing fedora 11 partition there I want to overwrite01:54
usr13BrianV: Is it empty?  (no files on it?)01:54
BrianVusr13: the problem is, the installer isn't picking up on my ext4 partitions01:55
darck1How could that matter? If it's unplugged at one side then... well... the computer won't know that it's unplugged at the other01:55
usr13BrianV: Delete the partiton.01:55
terr_Arkhalis: make sequence:  configure; make; make install\01:55
terr_Arkhalis: make sequence:  configure; make; make install01:55
nellmathewnvm, just needed to click desktop and super+r, figures..01:55
BrianVusr13: I can't. I have 2 ext4 partitions. The installer just sees it as one big unrecognized lump of disk01:56
VCooliodarck1: [quote] how does that make effing sense [/quote] read the link01:56
Arkhalissorry, got the fiance yaking in my ear what does that mean and that01:56
darck1lol01:56
Arkhaliscan't think lol01:56
BrianVthat is, it doesn't recognize the individual partitions01:56
darck1I just did01:56
darck1okay - trying again01:56
cabreylaeg, gnome sometimes takes a little to update its menu system01:56
sebsebsebBrianV: which version of Ubuntu?01:56
Arkhalisthe dmesg scrolls too far and the top is too far up to read the bogomips01:56
=== kompulsa_dot_com is now known as Tetracomm
BrianVsebsebseb: 9.0401:56
sebsebsebBrianV: and the Live CD won't detect the Fedora Ext4 hum01:57
terr_Arkhalis: NEVER but NEVER say "yacking".  tyr dmesg | less01:57
Arkhalisalso...01:57
terr_Arkhalis: treat em nice!  they can make your life miserable01:57
sebsebsebBrianV: Ext4 is a bit bad in 9.04 anyway,  since  no 2.6.30  kernel from the repo  as an update and so on01:57
Arkhalisfor some reason when i save my make sequence into a text doc01:57
BrianVsebsebseb: yes. Although now that I think about it... I used LVM, and if I recall, Ubuntu needs extra packages to use LVM01:57
Arkhalistext file that is01:57
sebsebsebBrianV: Ubuntu only do security updates you see, so 2.6.30 does not count01:57
Arkhalistransfer to this pc it comes up gibberish so i can't pastebin it this time01:57
Arkhalisit's odd01:57
terr_Arkhalis: dmesg | grep bogo01:58
BrianVsebsebseb: hmm... that's a problem then. The Fedora install is troublesome, and I was hoping to upgrade easily. It locks up every time I try to backup my disk01:58
terr_Arkhalis: what country are you in?01:58
sebsebsebBrianV: well with the default kernel in 9.04 people can get a lockup when deleting data, it's in the release notes01:58
darck1okay - unplugged and re-plugged, restarting x01:58

terr_oh - working the late shift then01:58
gmaphow do i apt-get install a list of packages from a text file?01:59
sebsebsebBrianV:   Fedora 11 uses Ext4 by default, and it's meant to be pretty good there :)  also  Ubuntu 9.10 released at the end of October will be using by default01:59
BrianVsebsebseb: ok. Well, I guess my strategy then is to try to get the disk to read with the liveCD so I can back it up.01:59
Arkhalisyeah work at a bar01:59
terr_gmap put #/bin/bash as the 1st line and execute it.  chmod +c blah  ./blah01:59
BrianVsebsebseb: then I will reformat to ext3, and start from scratch02:00
terr_chmod +x blah02:00
Ahadielgmap, for pkg in `cat /path/to/file`; do apt-get install $pkg; done02:00
Darck1Well it was a lovely little ride - but it didn't help02:00
Ahadielgmap, but that's assuming each package is on it's own line02:00
sebsebsebBrianV: how about  starting from scratch with  at least / in Ext4, at least then Ubuntu is faster to boot.02:00
Ddordawill Intel Core2Duo E2180 run ubuntu fine?02:00
terr_Arkhalis: I'd like a beer02:00
sebsebsebBrianV: keep data on Ext3 for now02:00
gmapok thx Ahadiel02:00
BrianVsebsebseb: because /home is already on EXT4 from the Fedora 11 install02:01
willI hope this is the channel for people that just did stupid things. I just ran gzip on a directory without using tar first. Is there anyway to unzip all of the .gz files in all of the subdirectories at once?02:01
sebsebsebBrianV: right, but you made it sound like you were going to start over from scratch with all Ext302:01
terr_Arkhalis: what is the cheapest eeepc you have come across?02:01
Ahadielgmap, np02:01
BrianVsebsebseb: I may have to. If EXT4 support isn't ready in Ubuntu, no sense keeping it02:01
gogetaterr_ 900a ebay 150$02:02
SeekingNothingI've got an error when I try to uninstall things that reads "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.02:02
SeekingNothingE: _cache->open() failed, please report." when I enter that into the terminal I get the following error, "dpkg: parse error, in file '/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0004' near line 14 package 'labyrinth': EOF during value field 'Description' (missing final newline)". What do I do?02:02
Mike_lifeguardwill: probably look for an -r option in man gzip?02:02
sebsebsebBrianV: when doing another distro, it's probably  usaully better to start over from scratch well for stuff such as /02:02
gogetanew02:02
samoraihi! gye02:02
BrianVsebsebseb: well, / I would have. But /home I was trying to save02:02
sebsebsebBrianV: delete the Fedora / and start over with an Ubuntu /02:02
Mike_lifeguardwill: or use find and tell it to unzip them02:02
gmapAhadiel: would this work? "$apt-get install | cat pkg.list"02:02
terr_gogeta: a 701 is fine too02:02
samoraiwher's I can get Ubuntu.fr02:02
BrianVsebsebseb: that's the problem. The disk has a / and a /home partition, both EXT4. The installer doesn't see them02:02
Darck1so - something is setting my rez to 800x600 when I log in... but we don't know what...02:02
gogetaterr 900a has a atom but the celroms are not bad02:03
BrianVsebsebseb: it just sees one big unrecognized partition02:03
Ahadielgmap, that doesn't make sense. You would pipe the output of cat pkg.list to apt-get if anything.02:03
Mike_lifeguardwill: confirmed, -r exists for gzip02:03
sebsebsebBrianV: the installer right, but manual install is pretty limited anyway02:03
samoraiUbuntu fr Please I want Link02:03
Ahadielgmap, I'm not sure if apt-get reads from stdin02:03

sumancan i add the sources to my hardy heron and do the install?02:06

sebsebsebBrianV: maybe Ubuntu don't have LVM  yet or something,  Ubuntu is  behind Fedora here and there always, it seems02:06
samoraithanks It's good02:07
sebsebsebBrianV: yeah Fedora is more cutting edge, later stuff  before Ubuntu02:07
infinity217it's too fast to ask anything!02:07
BrianVsebsebseb: LVM has been around for 10 years. I imagine it has it, it's just not in the installer for some reason02:07

Aacroni just dont understand it :( ubuntu sees the drive, can even mount and peruse my windows drive04:02
Aacronoh is there a way to turn off the enter/leave message on pidgin?  killin me04:03
scuniziDishtroyer: not all modems are created equil.. the vast majority and almost all pci cards are software modems. Your chances of getting it to work are I hate to say.. slim. I had the same problem.  I needed outbound fax capability.. (new post hang on)04:03
Guest90862dil: "kstartupconfig4 does not exist or fails. The error code is 3. Check your installation"04:03
DILfireball: i installed on the new drive not over the existing04:03
Guest90862hmmm. What's my best option?04:04
scuniziDishtroyer: so after trying 2 external serial modems and 5 different pci modems from various era's, I brokedown and spent $49 for a usb modem that said it supported linux.. If you'd like a link to what I got I'll give it to you.04:04
DILfireball: i then copied files from home folder to new install - the tutorial did not work forme04:04
Aacronscunizi: wow external *serial* modems were software modems?  din't think is possible :(04:05

KDeskOr can I copy the one from Karmic?04:05
Dishtroyerscunizi: before you do that, have you seen http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/pctel-linux ?04:05
Guest90862so make sure i've got this right please, because somehow my write permissions are wrong, my only option is to recreate the user from scratch? Seems a bit excessive]\04:06

deagleGnea: I guess my real question is: where does ubuntu store info to launch apps from @ startup?05:47
Gneadeagle: iirc, it should go like this:  line1: #!/bin/sh  line2: Xsetroot -s /path/to/the/pic.jpg  line3: openbox05:47
deagleziroday: there's such a thing? o_O05:47
Gneadeagle: that's dependent on the desktop manager05:47
Dr_Willisdeagle:  depends on the desktop. :) kde and gmome both support session management, and the autostart directory05:48
Dr_Willis!autostart05:48
ubottuTo add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot05:48
deaglebut i don't have a desktop manager :P05:48
Gneadeagle: so gnome/metacity carries that in ~/.gconf and ~/.gnome05:48
Dr_Willisdeagle:   teres always making your own .xinitrc or some other methods like we used years ago05:48
Gneawell then, you have to make them launch in the background in .xinitrc before launching your wm :)05:48

WIGGMPkusingartistxlive: are you comfortable with the command line? show me what "sudo fdisk -l" tells you on pastebin06:18
usingartistxliveWIGGMPk, okay, will check, back in a bit I hope....06:19
unitheoryscales11, all of them? theres what like 7-10 desktop environments?06:19
loofusingartistxlive, : you could try ALT+PRINTSCREEN+RSEIUOR06:19
ibmmanwhat do you use to extrat .rar files in ubuntu06:19

WIGGMPkibmman: archive manager... just double click on it06:19

jeeves_mossok, sound with my 82801G audio controller, I can't get it to work.  how do I fix it?06:19
losheribmman: use 'unrar'06:19
scales11unitheory: i just cant settle on one though06:19
WIGGMPkibmman: losher oops thats right..06:19
drmrhorse_for unrar you need ubuntu-restricted-extras, no?06:20
Dr_Willis!rar06:20
ubotturar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free06:20
scales11unitheory: ubuntu has its options and settings a little spread out, harder to find in a whim06:20
Dr_Willisdrmrhorse_:  not that i am aware of.06:20
drmrhorse_hmm06:20
ktnehello06:20
Dr_Willisdrmrhorse_:  it might be included in that (the restricted-extras is a meta-packages)06:20
ktnei'm trying to install firefox 3.5beta on ubuntu06:20

SyphonSilenthey guys06:22
SyphonSilenthow do I open an rpm file?06:22
ArkhalisWIGGMPk: Talking to yourself can be good sometimes06:22
WIGGMPkDr_Willis: as in, its an awesome meta-package... yea just nvm06:22
Dr_WillisWIGGMPk:  meta-packages are veyr common in the Ubuntu packages. :) like 'ubuntu-desktop' and 'kubuntu-desktop'06:22
loofusingartistxlive, : actually, that should be ALT+PRINTSCREEN+R (takes back keyboard control if X is holding keyboard/mouse. you can then ctrl-alt-f1 to a terminal, login, enable the root account, and fix your install06:22
scales11unitheory: arch is nice but lots of setup,  and then when i think i am all set, more setup! pacman is decent though, but autocomplete is slower than ubuntu, much slower,06:22
dsdeiz_!alien06:22
ubottuRPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported)06:22

sam____um, it could be, i guess, but it's my own home network and everything else works fine without having to do any setup of that kind06:44
Ownermutew, it does not say the dll name all its says, "some dlls are needed for loading the kernel"06:45
Arkhalistry the joystick calibrator to see if it's really there... if not perhaps try finding drivers for it06:45
mutewkaratekickz, or if your fs has updatedb then try and do a "locate xstartup"06:45
OphelixAlright Ill give it a try one minuto06:45
losherkaratekickz: you need 'ls -a' to see files starting with a dot06:45
ArkhalisOphelix: try the joystick calibrator to see if it's really there... if not perhaps try finding drivers for it06:45
mutewOwner, in that case you could try booting from the WinXP cd and running the repair option.06:45
jerroome`do you use that network for the moment with another machine, if yes have a look at your dhcp-server config06:45
zortecWhere can I find a troubleshooting guide for the network manager on 9.04?06:46

JayXloof i did, but i dont have the bash commands to create an ad-hov06:48
jerroome`JimBiggs can you access a terminal ?06:48
mutewkaratekickz, any luck yet?06:48
Apollo2366rameshworr, that's three for three then, I think it's a problem with Pidgin06:48
karatekickzwhat would the exact comand be for the grep request?06:48
Apollo2366rameshworr, my friend has the same problem06:48
karatekickzany parameters?06:48
JimBiggsjerroome`, yes, i'm in it just right now, but all i can see in dmesg is "[drm: i915_get_vblank_counter] *ERROR* trying to get vblank count for disabled pipe 0"06:48
mutewgrep "vncserver" /etc -r06:48
losherJayX: what's an ad-hoc?06:48
jerroome`if yes, backup your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file06:49
ramasvoss: sorry the lap is at her home I canbt find the burner model and I dont recall what it was, all I can tell u is a Gateway mx 6009m with celeron 2.1Ghz processor06:49
mutewkaratekickz, grep "vncserver" /etc -r06:49
jerroome`and then execute sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg06:49
JimBiggsjerroome`, backup done, and then?06:49
JayXlosher, good question... it something to do with shareing a network connections06:49
JayX!info ad-hoc06:49
ubottuPackage ad-hoc does not exist in jaunty06:49
JimBiggsjerroome`, ok, i'll try that straight away and keep you updated ;)06:49
OphelixArkhalis: Alright sweetness all i needed to do was install the configurator thanks!06:49
usingartistxliveloof ,WIGGMPk, how do I get the terminal from a live-cd to administer changes to the installed OS, or, if easier, how do I get the root password enabled on the installed OS from the live-cd terminal? I got lost in the shell there for awhile.06:49
ramasmy father has the exact same model and the burner worked without issues to burn 2 dvd¡'s and a cd-r last week06:49
jerroome`don't need to reboot06:49
zortecWhere can I get help for network manager?06:49
vossramas, the best strategy try the other brand cds tommorow, if they dont work , replace the drive06:49
JayXlosher,  wifi connection*06:49
jerroome`execute telinit S06:49
ArkhalisOphelix: Glad to help, and remember if the app you run needs the controller location it's /dev/input/js06:49
jerroome`and then launch X manually again06:49
JimBiggsjerroome`, telinit S ?06:49
unitheoryJayX, losher, ad-hoc is a network with a mobile device such as a laptop acting as the access point06:50
JimBiggswith startx?06:50
jerroome`with gdm if you use gnome06:50
JimBiggsoh ok gdm06:50
karatekickzlots of permission denied when run from /~06:50
mutewlosher, an ad-hoc connection is a type of network connection built without the aid of any external networking infrastructure..06:50
karatekickzno hits06:50
JimBiggsok i'll try that straight away ;)06:50
jerroome`ok06:50
OphelixArkhalis: Got it Alright thanks again06:50
loshermakes sense, thanks all...06:50
mutewlosher, so for eg. the connection between a couple of laptops, mobiles or PDA's without the use of a router is an ad-goc connection.06:50
ramaswell, we'll see wuth the other cd's Ill have more info tomorrow and then Ill ask again if necessary, if its worth it, in windows vista she burned a dvd prior to wiping it, the lap is brand new06:50
JayXunitheory,  so then how doe tethering work? is the lapot is the access point?06:50
JimBiggsjerroome`, telinit S shows me a recovery menu, what should i choose?06:51
unitheoryJayX, not sure about that one ;]06:51
JayXunitheory,  ok :P06:51
sam____also, when i go into attached devices it only shows my windows desktop and my macbook, not the ubuntu desktop06:51
jerroome`normal resume or similar06:51
sam____on my router that is06:51
ramasthx for the help, I hope I dont have to downgrade it to hardy, as it works pretty well and she has all her apps and look and feel already set in jaunty06:51
vossramas, you can also try creating an ubuntu live cd on another computer and if it wont boot the disc then you know.06:52
karatekickzI gotta run mute thanks for the help so far...I guess I will google more06:52
losherkaratekickz: which parameter do you want to add?06:52
JimBiggsjerroome`, i think i screwed something up with telinit S, i'll just reboot06:52
karatekickzwhatever teh screen res para is I have to google again06:52
jerroome`ok, reboot06:53
jerroome`but don't worry, nothing can be broken06:53
mutewkaratekickz, try searching for vncserver -geometry 640x48006:53
mutewkaratekickz, that should be the command line invocation06:53
ramasvoss: k, but she says data and music cd's are mounted fine, the only proib is with blank cds06:53
karatekickz-geometry06:53
losherkaratekickz: as I understand it, mythbubtu runs the gnome desktop, and gnome has a VINO server built in, which serves vnc'06:53
JimBiggsjerroome`, could this issue be because i added the "latest video drivers source" in apt lately? (like a week ago06:54
karatekickz nah it defaults cause I am running headless06:54
mutewlosher, but he's talking of a headless vnc system.06:54
ramasproblem is she doesnt live with me yet so I wont be sure until friday when I see her and the laptop06:54
karatekickzI cant even find a reference for freaking vnc06:54
karatekickzits simple06:54
karatekickzI just gotta add that paramte06:54
vossramas, a ubuntu live cd is an iso . If the system will boot the live cd, then its not a drive reading problem06:54
karatekickzI acannot belive this is that difficult06:54
karatekickzvery frustrating06:54
losherkaratekickz: so when you run 'ps ax' is there a vncserver running?06:55
ramasanyway, thx Ill be back probably if the other cd's dont work, she has xp in another partition Ill try to see if she can burn from there...06:55
JimBiggsjerroome`, no luck still the black empty screen (but there's sound ;)06:55
jerroome`JimBiggs, could be, but I didn't heard anything about it06:55

jerroome`lsmod06:55
karatekickzlol thats how this one is06:55
jerroome`and also your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file06:55
losherkaratekickz: but you didn't start the vncserver explicitly?06:55
ramasyep I just installed jaunty from cd a week ago06:55
vossuni, but a drive that cannot read a live is a definite hardware failure06:55
karatekickzmyth gave me the option to install it06:56
JayXloof how do i make a bash comand to create a Ad-hoc network?06:56
karatekickzso I assume its set to load on boot06:56
ramasas I tell u guys the oinly issue on thw whole hw in the laptop is with these blank cd's06:56
JimBiggsjerroome`, how could i pastebin anything? it's on my laptop and i only have access to the term :(06:56

vossramas, the whole might be those crappy office depot cds in which case youre golden :)06:56
jerroome`give me a sec, I don't have an issue directly06:56
losherkaratekickz: back to what mutew said then. Grep for vnc in /etc/init.d/*06:56

JimBiggsbazhang, that's clever ;)06:57
bazhangcat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit (for example)06:57
JimBiggsjerroome`, ok, will do ;)06:57
JimBiggsbazhang, very clever ;)06:57
losherkaratekickz: mutew: sorry I'm behind you guys06:57
JimBiggsi'll do that06:57
ramasok that sounds good will see the manufacturer and see if theres a fw upgrade if the other cds dont work tomorrow06:57
karatekickzits not in xconf06:57
JimBiggsjerroome`, so lsmod, lspci and xorg.conf right?06:57
Arkhalisramas: only problem with firmware is06:57
ramasshe says theyŕe sony, but I doubt it as she says they dont have any labels or anything06:58
jerroome`yes06:58
losherkaratekickz: if it's forked from mythbackend, you'll never find it...06:58
ramasif u screw u blow the hw?06:58
Arkhalisramas: a lot of the time there are only windows installers for updating firmware so you may run into problems there06:58
karatekickzk im in that directory06:58
karatekickzso just grep "vncserver"?06:58

karatekickzgroan thanks for the help im giving up for the night07:04

Tohuwloof: any ideas on why when I use the fglrx driver I get "no screens found" even though I'm using a standard and simple xorg.conf?07:13
JimBiggsjerroome`, so you confirm there's nothing i could do to "revert to standard video drivers" as i should already be using them, right?07:13
JimBiggsjerroome`, how to repair broken packages?07:13
losherusingartistxlive: ok, now lets generate a root password. Type: sudo passwd root . It will prompt you to enter & repeat a root password07:13
jerroome`you can either reboot and launch in rescue mode, or launch telinit S and choose repair broken packages07:13
JimBiggsjerroome`, ok07:14
ganymede_Tophu: you can tar and gzip your entire home directory, or maybe just the dot-folders07:14
loofhmmm, what drivers are you using?07:14
JimBiggsjerroome`, is that normal that i can't use the arrows to change the menu in telinit S?07:14
loofTohuw, : what ati drivers, i mean07:14
jerroome`if you boot in recue mode, you first have to drop to a root shell in order to set your network connection and after that laucnh repair broken packages07:14

losherusingartistxlive: ok. now look at the file /etc/shadow: the first line should say root: followed by a bunch of weird characters07:16
JimBiggsjerroome`, when i type any key it writes over the menus, and the arrows arent reponsive07:16
linuxguy2009Yes I have used alacarte many times its great.It just wont do it for some odd reason.07:16
jerroome`after you have launched the xorg reconfigure command, you aren't using any third party drivers for graphics anymore07:16
Amaranthlinuxguy2009: Don't use the "Delete" option in alacarte07:16
unitheorylinuxguy2009, uncheck the boxes next to the entries you don't want to show ?07:16

wickingagain: i’ve added a file /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-x11-input.fdi to my HAL config. how can i tell HAL to immediately use these new settings without a restart of the computer?07:21
jerroome`yes it is07:21
linuxguy2009Man i love this wallpaper-tray app from the repos.Its cool.07:21
Stanley_I'm new to linux and all I've used so far is CentOS on my servers, I tried to use Fedora but it seems a little clunky07:21
Aacronwell now that my GRUB issues are solved, i now need help getting my not-so-supported SiiG sil0680 Medley card to play nice in Ubuntu07:21
losherusingartistxlive: ok, we need to copy the password to the server file /media/disk/etc/passwd. Do you have a favorite text editor?07:21
JimBiggsjerroome`, i rebooted in rescue mode, selected the xfix menu entry, but still no luck :/07:21
Stanley_So I'll have to get used to doing things "differently" in ubuntu07:21
Tophu@linuxguy2009: is that the one that auto rotates wallpapers?07:22
linuxguy2009Stanley deb distros like Ubuntu and Debian are great to start with.Good luck to you!07:22
Aacronfrom what I have read, I need to use dmraid07:22
jerroome`then I'm out of ideas07:22
looftohuw: with that card i think you should be using mesa07:22
xooowhere do i manage how ubuntu does updates? mines not doing it automatically. i tried update manager and its not in there.07:22
usingartistxlivelosher, I have gedit open07:22
jerroome`maybe you should go to a xorg chat07:22
Aacronthing is last time I tried to use it, it gave me some funky erorr about dos: something size exceeded partition07:22
linuxguy2009Tophu yeah its cool I love it. I accidentally left the timer at 0 and set it to rotate and it was swapping papers like crazy till i reset it in gconf.hehe07:22
jerroome`those people might be able to help you better07:22
JimBiggsjerroome`, i switch to #xorg, let's hope there's some people as helping as you ;)07:22
losherusingartistxlive: ok, open /media/disk/etc/shadow in the editor07:23
JimBiggsthanks a lot !07:23
unitheoryxooo, system > administration > software sources07:23
jerroome`you welcome07:23
jerroome`sorry I couldn't fix your problem07:23
JimBiggsjerroome`, at least it ruled out the obvious i believe :D07:23
JimBiggswell, it's not your fault is it? at least you tried!07:23
jerroome`good luck07:24
losherusingartistxlive: you might encounter permission problems. You may need to run sudo gedit /media/disk/etc/shadow to get it to work07:24
Aacronanyone use pidgin in here?  I'd like to turn off the enter/leave messages but I dunno how to?  Course I could just install and use a real IRC client... :|07:24
linuxguy2009I learned a cool tweak the otehr day for the gnome panels, you can go to gconf and apps/panel/toplevel and set them to 0 delay for show and hide, and also 0 for how much of the panel shows when hiding and disable the animation.There totally hidden until you need em and there fast.Love it!07:24
Aacronyeah think I'll do that be back in a minute07:25
usingartistxlivelosher, I closed it and reopened it with sudo07:25
JimBiggsjerroome`, thanks ;)07:25
losherusingartistxlive: ok, open a second terminal and do the same with /etc/shadow i.e. sudo gedit /etc/shadow07:25

losherusingartistxlive: we on;y need to change the first line. I hope it's clear what I mean...07:29
usingartistxlivelosher, does it matter that the rest of the numbers in the terminal are different from the numbers in gedit? That is, not counting "root".07:29
Arkhalislinuxguy2009: I love linux except for gaming, I play too new of games for wine to handle so I spend most of my time on windows... everything else is linux07:29
losherlinuxguy2009: linux wasn't as cool as it is now, 'back in the day'....07:29
unitheorylosher, yes it was :P07:30
linuxguy2009hehe true I bought a box of Mandrake 8.0 back when i was younger and had no clue how to do anything on it but install it. Its changed a lot.07:30
losherusingartistxlive: the rest of the numbers are ok to leave as is, we only want to cut & paste the actual password07:30
unitheoryi guess it depends on how you define "cool" and "back in the day"07:30
usingartistxlivelosher, okay, root line only, copied and pasted.07:30

usingartistxliveokay07:33
Arkhaliszortec: have you tried this?07:33
Arkhalis!alsa | zortec07:33
ubottuzortec: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP307:33

losherk2000: there is an ntfsfix program, but it's no substitute for chkdsk, You really need to get a windows system to check/repair the fs07:48

zortecalkamid: What does 'minimal' mean, is that what you want to know?08:22
vigoalkamid: Make a good backup now, you cannot go wrong with that.08:22
loofStanley: do zortec confirmed, you can hit esc during bootup to get the boot options screen, from there boot to console with networking, and install the driver there as root08:23

halldor89hi, I'm running hardy heron and I need newer version of pygobject than is in the repository, what options do I have (other than upgrade my ubuntu installation)?10:37
Stanley_So  I went back to the 173 restricted driver and my video card wasn't supported so X wouldnt' start. so while I had no X i installed the 185 drivers which wouldnt' work either so I loaded into "low graphics mode" and re-enabled the 180 drier sfrom the restricted menu and i'm back and running again10:38
zortechalldor89: You would have to search the net for the latest package10:38
iceroothalldor89: backports or installing a new version by hand10:38
zortechalldor89: You could try enabling more repositories if you haven't done so10:38

e-frameashlessburn: yea, i've tried unetbootin. thx10:42
Stanley_Well, no, I'm back to the 180 drivers I had originally10:42
Stanley_zortec: so nothings really changed10:42
iceroothalldor89: for e.g. if firefox 3.1 is in backports you will get it if you have installed firefox 3.010:42
iceroothalldor89: so apt-pinning can hold back the other packages10:43

bazhang!latest | the_dark_warrio12:26
ubottuthe_dark_warrio: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports.12:26
JanhouseBut it doesn't even offer to remember those passwords.12:26
ActionParsnipthe_dark_warrio: it gets updated when it gets updated. if you can find a ppa or deb with the newer version on then go for it12:27

achillionHey guys. I have a problem with the sensors plugin. It works ok, but every time it gets loaded at startup I get an error that "hddtemp" was not executed correctly. Is there any way to fix this?12:32
JanhouseNo freedom for users...12:32
ActionParsnipJanhouse: ubuntu is aimed at folks new to linux so it trys to enforce a lot of security by default so newbs can be ok12:32
zirodayachillion: what does /etc/init.d/hddtemp start say?12:32
th0rJanhouse: see vega 's comment about NOPASSWD12:32
JanhouseI am just saying that it should offer remembering passwords.12:32
ActionParsnipJanhouse: you can configure it differently but i refuse to support it. too many users doing it then breaking their systems12:32
tunnuzHello people ... what to do when the partitioner hangs at 33% during install?12:32
zirodayachillion: or if you don't want that at all you can do sudo apt-get remove hddtemp all together and then dpkg-reconfigure sensors-applet12:32
ActionParsnipJanhouse: it does for a grace period, then you will be asked again12:32
zirodaytunnuz: wait12:32
ActionParsnipJanhouse: if you run: sudo apt-get update12:33
tunnuzziroday, I'll wait, but is there a timeout?12:33

zirodaytunnuz: no, its partitioning correct?12:33
ActionParsnipJanhouse: then run: sudo apt-get upgrade    you are not asked for your password on the upgrade as you are in the grace period12:33
achillionhm, that might work. Before it kept telling me that I didn't have hddtemp. Would reconfiguring it make it stop looking for hddtemp?12:33
tunnuzziroday, what do you mean?12:33
JanhouseActionParsnip, this problem with keyring not remembering passwords on ubuntu is main reason I am mostly using terminal...12:33

Janhouse:D12:33
zirodayachillion: yes12:33
achilliongreat12:33
tunnuzziroday, it's creating the ext3 file system.12:34

PervertedMonkmobi-sheep: what does that mean...and how do u get the notify-osb message12:34
Bodsdalaeg: run   sudo chmod 644 ~/.dmrc12:34
scales11tunnuz: check your install media12:34
JanhouseI hate typing my Uber long password every time I want to update my sistem12:34
Janhouse*system12:34
zirodaytunnuz: and how large is the hard drive/partition?12:34
tunnuzziroday, 80 GB12:34
ActionParsnipJanhouse: you can use   sudo -i   to get an interactive sudo and you can run multiple cli commands without worrying about the sudo timer expiring12:34
usr13Janhouse: You are terminal?12:34
zirodaytunnuz: then you will need to wait (a while)12:34
scales11tunnuz: you may have burned a bad cd.  you can do a disc check i think right at boot12:34
ActionParsnipJanhouse: you could cron a script to run as root to upgrade your system while you sleep / are at work12:35
tunnuzscales11, I checked the install media, and there was a problem with libradius, then I burned another one, now the problem is with libruby, but I don't think that libruby is fundamental for partitioning.12:35
sjokkishi. i want to prevent my system from loading the floppy module on boot. i've added it to /etc/modprobe.d/backlist.conf, but that isn't helping. i'm sure i've spelled it correctly.12:35
zirodayscales11: its really not a good idea to interrupt an install, especially during the formatting stage12:35
laegBodsda: done, is that it?12:35
Bodsdalaeg: possibly, try it12:35
laegBodsda: ty mate12:35
JanhouseThat is not a solution. I guess I am too used to Debian. I will have to get used to Ubuntu and the way it works.12:35
mobi-sheepPervertedMonk: Join #xchat -- I'm there and I just asked the question.12:35
tunnuzziroday, ok I'll wait for a while12:35
scales11ziroday: i dont disagree with you there, i meant to check it before hand.12:35
lstarnestunnuz: it may be needed for programs that are programmed with ruby12:35
zirodaysjokkis: its /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist (no .conf) and the syntax is blacklist <module>12:36
Bodsdalaeg: your welcome12:36
tunnuzlstarnes, yes but during install?12:36
Janhousebut it is like going back to Windows where it asks "Are you sure???". Only in this case I have to enter LONG password to move on.12:36
tunnuzanyway I'm downloading a new image ... just in case12:36
achillionziroday, I just reloaded and it's fine. Thanks for the help!12:36
scales11tunnuz: if you are getting errors then something is wrong with your disc, i dont think you can just elude to the fact that one .dll is corrupt and figure it will install ok12:36
usr13Janhouse: You could also change your system so that it works just like Debian.12:36
zirodayachillion: have fun12:36
sjokkisziroday: strange. i had a file named /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf from before. isn't the old syntax (without .conf) deprecated recently? perhaps that's where the problem is12:37
ActionParsnipJanhouse: its a good security measure and is much more secure than users logging on as root and runing web apps which is massively unsecure12:37
tunnuzscales11, that's why I'm downloading a new image12:37
zirodaytunnuz: check out the md5sums before and after buring the disk, if having trouble downloading use a download manager or bittorrent12:37
JanhouseI am not talking about running web apps as root. :D12:37
sjokkisziroday: no bother. i'll just add a symlink12:37
zirodaysjokkis: nope, its always been /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist AFAIK12:37
JanhouseI am talking about running synaptics at my home.12:37
ActionParsnipJanhouse: i know but its that sort of security imposed by using sudo12:38
sjokkisvery strange. anyway. thank you ziroday12:38
BodsdaJanhouse: the fact of the matter is, it is there for a reason, If you truly understand all the consequences then you should be able to discover for yourself how to remove the behaviour12:38
scales11tunnuz: well then that is good.  bad cds happe, you can also run a chksum before you burn it, to make sure your image is good12:38
zirodaysjokkis: have fun12:38

MylistoSo we need to build interesting new feedback loops such as using a PA system, and/or personal amplification devices (with headphones), a voice synthesizer to help amplify certain qualities &/or annoyances... an oscilloscope for visual feedback on various vocal effects, and also a histogram display for visual feedback on what frequencies we're producing. Once multiple rounds of that have been experienced, NLPers are far more capable12:58

neongraui have a sendmail setup from an gentoo server i want to migrate to ubuntu server. i already have 2 proper .mc files to generate 2 sendmail.cf's but i can't seem to figure out how to integrate them with the ubuntu startscripts or its /etc/mail/sendmail.conf :(13:54
mdmneongrau: m413:55

usr13bob_rock: bob_rock ALL=NOPASSWD:/home/rob_roc/bin/on-off-net13:55
neongrauin fact all i need to do is figure out how to thell the init script to start and stop these 2 sendmail processes13:56
mdmneongrau: mc files are a script for the processor m4, you need to convert them to .cf files.  and you do this with the command m413:56
usr13bob_rock: Where /home/rob_roc/on-off-net  is your script to turn off and on your net.13:56
bob_rockusr13: Tell the clear way!13:56
neongraumdm: i know, i already got them, my prob is the init.d script of ubuntu13:56
BlinkizHi. I need some advice. Am about to start documenting our network and servers here. I want to use the right tools for this from the beginning. Some kind of web-based is the best. Like a wiki och a special open source project aiming at creating a documentation portal. Any advice please?13:57
sipiorneongrau: the sendmail script in /etc/init.d should already handle starting and stopping the service. did it not get installed when you added sendmail?13:57
mdmneongrau: what is the problem you have with the init script?13:58
neongrausipior: ofc but default is it just starts sendmail with whatever /etc/mail/sendmail.cf there is (from the default setup)13:58
JonnyAre there any swish++ experts here? I'm having trouble getting filters to work when using index++13:58
lkarydasCan anyone help me with an x crash problem?13:58
sipiorneongrau: and you can't simply replace sendmail.cf?13:59
neongrausipior: i can and i did already. it's starting the one process, and 2 queue runne rprocesses i don't want in that form (it fails to see the proper pid files)14:00
mmx_sseHi all14:00
AzMooDoes ubuntu have a firewall set by default?14:01
mdmneongrau: do you mean its starting an MTA and a MSA?  that is your conf file, one recives email the other sends it14:01

scuniziAzMoo: yes.. it uses iptables to do it.14:02
AzMooscunizi: is there a gui to turn it off?14:02
neongraumdm: yep thats whats it's probably doing. but it's not starting the 2nd process the way i want (with -C/etc/mail/sendmail-rx.cf) as extra options14:02
sipiorneongrau: what syntax are you using to specify the location of these files?14:02
scuniziAzMoo: what are you trying to do that you can't?14:02

sipiorneongrau: can you modify the settings in /etc/default/sendmail?14:03
AzMooscunizi: I'm having trouble getting an IP from dhcp. Can get the network if I set it static and I can see the request for an address on the router, but it doesn't accept the response.14:03

bob_rockusr13: seem my wlan0 cannot be stopped and it says ERROR: Can't change MAC: interface up or not permission: Device or resource busy14:03
mdmneongrau: its supposed to do that.  the process that you think of, sendmail is on half of the smtp archtecture.  When your email client sends mail (when you do) you connect to one part, it then tells the other part to pass that mail on.  Its suposed to be like that, its part of the architecture, its part of security, and its supposed to be like that14:03
mdmneongrau: that isnt a ubuntu thing btw its a smtp and sendmail thing14:04

AzMooscunizi: DHCP had a reservation for the MAC with the wrong hostname. Switched it to the correct hostname and everything came good.14:07
mdmneongrau: do you mean you want to have the init script use those? change them to sendmail.cf and submit.cf14:07

natschilbrianV: I know the feeling :)14:07
AzMooscunizi: ta for the response :)14:07
scuniziAzMoo: np :)14:07
neongraumdm: exactly, the config part of sendmail is perfectly fine. just the starting/stoppting via the init script is my prob14:07
AzMooscunizi: having said that, *is* there somewhere to modify the firewall, for future reference?14:08
mdmneongrau: either rename sendmail-rx.cf to submit.cf or change the init script14:08
bob_rockusr13: scirpt always says error (ERROR: Can't change MAC: interface up or not permission: Device or resource busy)14:08
scunizi!ufw | AzMoo this is popular but doesn't touch everything iptables can do.14:08
ubottuAzMoo this is popular but doesn't touch everything iptables can do.: 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 exist14:08
ubu1How to close virtual keyborad?14:08
mdmneongrau: as for the queue options you have to change those as well, altho the only thing I notice that inst normal is the log level14:08

cyberghoser1bob_rock, did your resolution got fixed finaly ?14:09
AzMooscunizi: nice one, thanks. I've played with iptables a bit in the past for masquerading, so I'm not entirely unfamiliar.14:09
usr13bob_rock: How old are you?14:09
c4ngkir_reppedhh14:10
bob_rockcyberghoser1:  hey good to see you. After digging my machine, the way to change resolution permanently is just go to System -> Preferences -> Display. No need to dig up my /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Just reboot my machine and it stays to resolution what i want.14:10

mdmaethelrick: do you mean like mythtv?14:18
sipiorneongrau: it might be useful to try with the verbose (-v) switch, to get more data. my guess is that the process name is confusing killall.14:19
znhenovativ, FreeNX is faster and more secure I'd recommend that over VNC14:20
aethelrickmdm: sort of. I currently have a SuSE box setup with mediatomb that streams audio and video to my PS3 which serves as a media extender. This box is "headless" and not in the lounge near the TV (which is good because my lounge is quiet).

mdmneongrau: dont use it, it would be a good way to loose email14:23
enovativznh: do you have to install the freenx client14:24
neongraui'm just using it because the setup isn't yet working and bc of the pid files not matching i can't properly stop them14:24
mdmaethelrick: what you are decribing is on aspect of mythtv, I run a 4TB media server in my ofice, with 3 tvs all reading from it as well as two media players that play music.  I assume that is what you mean by streaming14:24
enovativi want to see my linux box from work, but i do not have the "rights" to install software on my machine at work14:24

tuntunHi. Is it possible to use an NTFS partition for linux swap?14:43
mobi-sheepenovativ: http://maketecheasier.com/use-ssh-x-forwarding-to-run-remote-apps/2009/06/2214:43
farisI don't think thats possible14:43
usr13tuntun: No14:43
jerroometuntun no14:43
tuntunbugger.14:44
stewtuntun: perhaps by putting a swapfile on it, but you certainly could not use the entire partition14:44
ImpRadarjack_:  ow ok lol what did you think, any of them any good14:44
tunnuzSo ... this is the fourth time I burn my Ubuntu image and the same file result to be corrupted when I check the drive for defects. The checksum is correct before burning and the verification after burning says it's ok.14:44
tunnuzAnd of course the partitioning still hangs at 33%.14:44
jerroometuntun accessing ntfs isn't fast at all on linux, so putting swap onto is a very bad idea14:44
mdmtuntun: contrary to CI, yes you can make swap on a nfs partition.  I would ask why you want to do it however14:44
farisCould the jumper settings on my ide dvd drive be the cause of ubuntu not being able to use the drive, even though it worked in windows?14:45
jack_found :D14:45
jack_thanks14:45
sipiormdm: ntfs, not nfs.14:45
mdmsipior: same idea, again why tho14:45
sipiormdm: glutton for punishment?14:46
tunnuzIs there a way to install from an USB drive?!14:46
mobi-sheepfaris: Do you have more than 1 disc readers?14:46
mdmmount whatever, make a file, loopback mount it, mkswap on it14:46
tuntunstew, I've got a 20gb NTFS partition, cant create any more because there are already four partitions, can I get linux to use the NTFS instead?14:46

farismobi-sheep: No i have just the one, with two hard drives(one ide,one sata)14:46
mdmjerroome: I would call it stupid linux tricks more then anything else, its why I asked why he wanted to do it14:46
jerroomeok, because it doesn't make sense14:47

NET||abuseand what resons do people generally have for getting into key usage and web of trust key signing etc..14:47

jerroome!quit14:47
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about quit14:47
mdmthe ONLY way I see it could make sense if you were doing it on a diskless box, even then I would tell you to put in more memory and do whatever you needed more memory for elsewhere14:47
tuntunI've got a 20gb NTFS partition, half-full14:48
tuntuncant use an extended partition14:48
mdmtuntun: just shrink the ntfs partition and make a swap partition in the cleared spacve14:49
usr13tunnuz: Or, if you have enough RAM, I guess you could just not use swap14:49
jeffwyehdoes anyone know what drivers to install for the ati x1400 mobility in jaunty?14:50
Picijeffwyeh: You should be okay using the open drivers.14:50
jeffwyehPici: does that mean radeon/radeonhd? i'm not sure what drivers i'm using as of now, as compiz worked out of box, so i never had a need to look into it14:51
Picijeffwyeh: If it worked ootb, then its using the proper drivers then. The restricted drivers do not support the x1400 in Jaunty.14:51
bastidrazorjeffwyeh, that would be the radeon drivers.14:51

mbeierlburno: usually only windows that "require attention" show in all viewport's taskbars.  Is pidgin trying to inform you of something, perhaps?15:10
DougieRichardsonusr13: sorry you miss my point - the system has functioned fine until the last few days.  The driver works, there's no issues there.  If i suspend and resume it's fine and if I hibernate too. However if I shutdown and boot I get a blank screen.  Running repair mode and xorg's check util finds xorg.conf errors and repairs them.15:11

ranceI have a ssh problem in ubuntu that the man page doesnt cover, and I need some help.  How do I alter the ssh implementation of ubuntu to allow the plain text hostnames to be included in a users known_hosts file.  I'm having an issue with keys being updated and on my centos boxes I can edit known_hosts with confidence because the plain text hostname is in the entry, but on ubuntu I cant tell which entries to change, so I end up blowing15:37

joeyeyegreyghost: it's an Xorg option as far as I understand15:49
Husainimaveas can u tell , you want to create the image file in your drive ? right ?15:49
mbeierlsquircle: you (or a group you belong to) are in the sudoers list?15:49
ubuntunomany reason why i cant increase the size of partition on gparted? i can shrink but cant utilise the empty space. im on live cd.15:49
GreyGhostjoeyeye, hmm .. i dnt knw much .. but glxinfo gives u driver info and version ..15:49
mbeierlsquircle: (just checking the basics... lemme know if you've already covered those)15:49
squirclembeierl: yeah, I am, and I can use sudo fine in the terminal, as well as gksudo.15:50
joeyeyegreyghost: glxinfo gives me the opengl version15:50
maveasHusaini: huh?15:50
mdmsquircle: adding users is an administrative task, as such needs admin rights.  This is why it is greyed out for your normal user account and why it requires sudo access to run15:50
GreyGhostHusaini, he has a drive .. it is broken .. he wants to try and create an image of it to try and recover data15:50
mbeierlmdm: but would the "unlock" button not do that for him?15:50
squirclemdm: I know that, normally I just click on unlock and type in the administrative (root) password, but it has stopped becoming available for me to click15:50

cabrey_whiff, office 2007 works nicely under wine, have you checked the appdb?15:54
squirclemdm and mbeierl: it's not just adding users, it's any GNOME administration program that requires root access in the admin menu (users, services etc.), but ones that open directly as root (with gksudo) still pop up the box for the root password and work fine, it's just these magic unlock buttons have stopped working. if I knew the app names, i could just run gksudo system-config-users or whatever, but these magic buttons wont' work anymore.15:54

imatechhave you used asterisk?15:56
cabrey_whiff, yea there is a tutorial somewhere, let me find it15:56
squirclemobi-sheep: it still launches as a normal user (despite asking for my password) and the unlock button is still greyed out15:56
_whiffcabrey: http://samanathon.com/how-to-install-microsoft-office-2007-in-ubuntu-9-04/ <-- This one?15:57
mbeierlsquircle: I think comment #10 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit/+bug/238799/comments/10) is pretty telling - it looks like VNC is treated as a remote login and if the remote logins are disallowed, then policykit won't auth you15:57

ScottGdakarn: Ah that was the name. Ok ill read the man page16:16
bastidrazor!xfce | ubuntunom16:16
Halitechubuntunom, possible but hard to say as the newer xubuntu isn't that light anymore ... if you want to check, open a terminal and do sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop, log out and then change the session to xfce and log back in16:16
squircleHalitech: exactly. it took me half an hour just to find out how to launch the policykit editor, of course, how would a new user know what policykit is, and why would they want to change it. oh well, i guess we'll have to adapt.16:16
usr13ScottG: fsck.ext316:16
Gird3rMeh, after having been playing around with the terminal for 3 days and constanly trying commands I have been told to try, I might just continue using terminal.16:16
erUSUL_ScottG: use gparted16:16
mdmvigge_sWe: 116% and they are considerd extremly roguh estimates, and often quite wrong16:16
ScottGerUSUL_: Thats true I could. Whats wrong with fdisk though?16:16
mdmand ScottG you create filesystems with mkfs16:16
dakarnubuntunom: xfce is faster than gnome, you could just install the new WM because technically xubuntu has all the same packages and libraries as ubuntu16:16
erUSUL_ScottG: fdisk only does partitions it can not format them16:17
Halitechsquircle, I hope they change things back somewhat to allow manual configuration16:17
krishmishspaceball1: pls try this to reconfigure....sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg16:17
ScottGOK you guys have just thrown like 4 different commands at me. What do I use?16:17
erUSUL_ScottG: if you want to format via cli use mke2fs16:17
Hyliansay i have a starnge question, im looking for something that will let me know if bad weather is coming on linux. there are a ton of apps for windows that will do it, will linux weatherbug or something do it?16:17
usr13ScottG: To format /dev/hdb1 in the ext3 filesystem do:  sudo fsck.ext3 /dev/hdb116:17
DirectorBonesySo I installed the ATi propietary driver. It works decently; except that at proper resolution for my 23'' monitor, it's displaying it over approximately a 19'' area, leaving a black border around the edge of the display. What should I do to fix this?16:17
ubuntunomdakarn: so i'll just apt-get install xfce?16:17
erUSUL_ScottG: gparted is a gui program that make it easy to do all sorts of disk editing16:18
bastidrazor!xfce16:18
ubottuXubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels16:18
usr13ScottG: So chage hdb1 to suit your needs.16:18
squircleHalitech: Some super-intelligent person will come up with a custom-crafted ubuntu-based distro that allows custom configuration. Of course, I always install from the alternate CD, configure LVM, and install the base system first, edit all the config files, then install GNOME on top of that. it's my roundabout "expert" way of doing things :)16:18
dakarnubuntunom: yes then select xfce4 as the xsession at login16:18
erUSUL_ScottG: if installed is aviable in system>Adminstration>Disk Editor16:18
usr13erUSUL_: He asked about formatting, not partitioning.16:18
spaceball1Oh, and also, if I do Ctrl-Alt-Del, the screen fades out.  If I do Ctrl-Alt-Del again, I see a "unlock screen" windows.  I can type in the window and unlock the screen.16:18
grungihey16:18
grungii'm just testing irc16:18
Gird3rmdm: The method to get the USB stick to connect to my wireless router is not a disscussion point. For me I don't care if I have have to type 10-20 or more commands into terminal, or go edit some files here and there. (Well the exception would be having to compile the drivers in c, wich is far beyond my knowledge, spare because I have only used ubuntu for like 4 days).16:18
mdmHylian: tons, from plugins to web brosers to desktop apps, even in METARS16:18
erUSUL_ScottG: partition editor Disk Editor16:18
ubuntunomdakarn: can i make it permanent choice xfce? so it wont even ask it?16:18
edbianubuntunom: It will ask if you want it as the default upon login.16:19
mdmGird3r: it is becase you are using a hack to get windows drivers to work on a linux box16:19
Halitechsquircle, I do close to the same but I use the debian net install cd16:19
Hylianthere are tons of weather apps, thats true, but i have had a hard time finding one that will make an audible sound when bas weather apporaches..16:19

DatzHello, when I "sudo apt-get update" I get "E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/https could not be found."  I think this is preventing me from getting some latest packages with added repos in sources.list.  How can I fix this?16:20
Gird3rIn short terms, got nothing.16:20
legend2440spaceball1: alt+f216:20
squircleDatz: You're trying to install from a secure HTTP mirror, something your apt doesn't support, use an HTTP/FTP mirror instead16:20
spaceball1legend2440: Hmm... I don't think that worked for me.. I can try again...16:20
Bananejoin #ci16:20
mdmGird3r: you have to do it as an admin user, i.e. use sudo16:20
dakarnbastidrazor: i wouldn't remove all the gnome packages without knowing what dependencies are needed16:20
squircleHalitech: that's especially useful, especially when you have a machine that won't boot off cds, i have to load the debian installer through floppies, and then apply the ubuntu bootstrapper. all i can afford are old pentium II servers16:21
Gird3rOkay.16:21
Hyliani guess what i want is a desktop app or something, not a webpage, i want it to make a sound if bad weather shows up16:21
Datzsquircle:  So I should remove the repo with the https?16:21
ScottGusr13: Yea I know I am. I have mounted it. I have just unplugged it and plugged it in a few times so its all the way to e16:21
Datzfrom sources.list?16:21
spaceball1legend2440: (I mean Alt-F2 didn't seem to switch screens)16:21
dakarn!conky |hylian16:21
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about conky16:21
squircleDatz: yes16:21
Datzthanks16:21
DirectorBonesySo I installed the ATi propietary driver. It works decently; except that at proper resolution for my 23'' monitor, it's displaying it over approximately a 19'' area, leaving a black border around the edge of the display. What should I do to fix this? Running Ubuntu 9.04 with an ATi Radeon HD4830 on a Hannspree HF237 23'' HDMI monitor.16:21
DirectorBonesyI had this problem in Windows 7, too, but it was easily fixed by adjusting a setting that doesn't seem to be in Linux's version of Catalyst.16:21
Hylian!conky16:21
dakarnhylian: you should look at conky. you can make it display pretty much anything on your desktop16:21
Hylianso conky will do that.. thanx16:21
dakarnconky will do many things, try not to get overwhelmed =)16:22
legend2440spaceball1: alt+f2 should pop up a box called Run Application16:22
spaceball1legend2440: But thanks for the xfce4_panel tip.16:22
usr13ScottG: You should un-mount it before unplugging it.16:22
bastidrazordakarn, installing xfce after the gnome uninstall will fix all required dependencies16:22
spaceball1legend2440: Ah!16:22
Halitechsquircle, thankfully the systems I've been working on lately will boot from cd and after Debian 5 you can't use floppies to boot any longer as the kernel is just too big now16:22
GreyGhostDatz, or u can try installing apt-transport-https16:22
squircleHalitech: that's why it's such a pain ;)16:22
Gird3rmdm: I only got output about my hardrives. It shows nothing about any wireless or any network related.16:22
Hylianok, but just to be anally clear, the only thing i need it to do is make a audible sound when bad weather apporaches, and it will do that, right? LOL16:22
GreyGhostDatz, *if u have to use that repo ..16:22
spaceball1legend2440: Thanks, that sounds like a good guess.  I'm going to have to leave irc to try this.  xfce4_panel was the command you recommend?  With no flags?16:22
mdmGird3r: I wasnt the one who told you to run fdisk.  I dont know why you did it to begin with16:23
squircley16:23
Gird3rOh16:23
Hylianthanx all16:23
dakarnbastidrazor: doesn't networkmanager-gnome require the gnome dependencies?16:23
Gird3rCOnfused myself.16:23
Halitechsquircle, yeah, I'm hoping my little endeavor to revive old computers won't require me to resort to boot from floppies :(16:23
Gird3r:s16:23
DirectorBonesyAh, there, the setting that isn't available to be changed freely is Display Scaling I believe; where it has an option to scale image to full panel size, or No Scaling. It's set to full panel size- why isn't it using the entire size of my display? Is Xorg somehow detecting it totally wrong?16:23
ScottGusr13: Hm, damn I might not have. I will remember that16:23
legend2440spaceball1: xfce4-panel   with no flags16:23
DatzGreyGhost: I don't remember what it was for anymore, update worked now.  :)16:23
squircleHalitech: hopefully the manufacturers will release a BIOS update to allow that from time to time, unlike dell :(16:23
mdmGird3r: if you want to list the interface try ifconfig -a, assming the install worked it would have created one16:24
spaceball1legend2440: Thanks; I'll give that a go.  Thanks all; hopefully I'll sign in again with a working X...16:24
ScottGusr13: Is there any way I can make /dev label it as sdb. Kinda annoying its all the way to e16:24
GreyGhostDatz, i suggested just in case u wanted something from that https repo ..16:24
GreyGhostanyway ..bbl16:24
Gird3rmdm: I got information about my networking. Also about wlan0 and some wierd wlan0:avahi16:24
Datzsquircle, GreyGhost: Now I have a new problem. What can I do to fix this?  http://pastebin.com/m53954f5116:24
mdmGird3r: sorry aslso assuming it is a 802.11 usb stick and not a GMRS or EDGE thing16:25
Halitechsquircle, hard to say but when you are dealing with old P2's I doubt it16:25
Gird3rmdm: Maybe I should provide more information. :p16:25
Datzsquircle, GreyGhost: Install transmission?16:25
squircleDatz: GreyGhost is gone, and the problem is that you need a newer version of transmission-common16:25
usr13Datz: sudo apt-get -f install16:26
Gird3rmdm: Lsusb shows: Bus 004 Device 002: ID 148f:2573 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2501USB Wireless Adapter16:26
DirectorBonesygod i'm too used to arch but they did some annoying things to the repos aaa16:26
squircleDatz: try installing transmission-common, then transmission-cli16:26
mdmGird3r: no the fact you said it was a wlan0 tells me what it is and that its using the avahi daemon16:26
Datzsquircle: usr13: thanks16:26
squircle:)16:26
ubuntunomwhy is it that i cant increase my partition size in gparted live even though i have unallocated space?16:26
* Datz has join/parts disabled on IRC ;)16:26
muhathank you my flahsplaer works berfectly16:27
Gird3rmdm: THe avahi appeared when I was playing around with the ndiswrapper and adding rt73 drivers and trying to get the wireless to have that driver "wrapped" as the documents on ubuntu FAQ told me to do.16:27
squircleubuntunom: what filesystem is it?16:27
|Ryanwhat's the command to download a torrent in command line?16:27
edbianubuntunom: Are you mounted on the partition you're trying to resize?16:27
Gird3rmdm: Note it was windows drivers.16:27
usr13ubuntunom: Are there other partitons on either side? If so, you will need to move one.16:27
squircleedbian: it's gparted live, so it wouldn't be mounted by default16:27
squircleubuntunom: I recommend PartedMagic anyways, a *lot* better than gparted live16:28
mdmGird3r: avahi is a configuration daemon for it.  I would think it ran it when you wanted to use WPA for the network16:28
edbianubuntunom: Is it part of an extended partition with a swap partitions (that is mounted possibly) ?16:28
Datzusr13: I don't know if that command fixed anything.  squircle: transmission-common is at the newest version.16:28
ubuntunomedbian: im on livecd. partition to resize is ext3. to its left is unallocatd space16:28
Gird3rmdm: Okay.16:28
bastidrazor|Ryan, if you use transmission you can have it monitor a directory for .torrent files.. you could wget the .torrent file and it would start.16:28
OldEagleHello, I'd like to know how to check if ubuntu recognizes my GPU and uses the radeon drivers16:28
usr13squircle: Mounted?  You may be using wrong term...16:28

shadeslayerhi after i followed this : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=208855 im stuck at find /boot/grub/stage1...it says no file found :(16:29
OldEagle(since X configures everything all by itself, xorg.conf won't help)16:29
squircleusr13: you can't resize a mounted filesystem, and gparted live boots off a CD, i'm using the right term16:29
edbianubuntunom:  Is there corruption?  It gives no errors?  Is there a little orange emergency sign in the list of drives?16:29
usr13Datz: That means that transmission-common is already installed.16:29
squircleDatz: it's just a mismatch between dependencies... can you just not sudo aptitude install transmission?16:29
legend2440spaceball1: good but unfortunately next time you reboot they may disappear again16:29
usr13squircle: Oh yea.... ok.16:29
firecrotchI've never run a 64-bit version of Linux.  Does it run well? Any unique problems that I may run into from a 64-bit install?16:29

legend2440spaceball1: good but unfortunately next time you reboot they may disappear again16:29
ubuntunomedbian: no all looks clean ...16:30
Gird3rmdm: I tried compiling the original Ralink drivers, it failed and I found no solution for getting the maker to work. I tried wrapping the rt73 driver supplied from the cd (copied to harddrive first) after playing around I finnaly got the driver to show up under wlan 0. Network manager loosed the connect to hidden essid or what it is called under the process.16:30
spaceball1legened2440: Right; I'll try to figure out what happened.  But at least I can switch windows now and use firefox, etc.16:30
squirclefirecrotch: i'm using ubuntu 64-bit right now, and it's perfect, just make sure you have a 64-bit processor16:30
usr13squircle: But if he's using bparted from a Live CD, why would it mount the partitions?  That does not make any sense.16:30

Gird3rmdm: I dunno. I don't know so much more. I'm pretty much clueless about how all this works.16:31
bastidrazorOldEagle, ultimate edition isn't suported here.. but you can do less /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if it loads radeon drivers16:31
ubuntunomthere is a key sign on linux partition and swap ... does it mean its locked somehow? i am on live cd though16:32

jpastoreare any of those 100 paper cuts to be addressed better dual monitor support? where can I send suggestions?16:32
mdmGird3r: you have an AP, maybe an AP built into something else (like a router/firewall).  It can be set to NOT brodcast its id.  This is actualy one way of securing i.  But when you did it means nothing can find it to autoconfigure it.  So you have to do it by hand16:32

Daraelubuntunom: Assuming you're in gparted, right-click the partition in question and choose "unmount" or "swapoff"16:33
Gird3rI used the network tool in system (had to install the tool) to assign an ESSID and turn DHCP on on wlan0.16:33
dva5912Im planning on getting that notebook but if wireless is no go im not getting it.16:33
OldEagleThanks you guys. I've read all the articles inthe world on how to install video drivers to no luck. If Ultimate edition is not supported here, sorry for asking, but its Ubuntu after all with a bunch of eye candies and other stuff16:33
squirclefirecrotch: as long as the 32-bit libraries are installed, yes. for instance, FirstClass comes in 32-bit only, i just had to install some 32-bit libraries (which should be installed by default, if not, there's just a few 32-bit library packages to be installed). i have tons of experience with 32-bit dependencies and libraries and stuff, so if you need any help, i'm usually around :)16:33

legend2440spaceball1: read third post from bottom by Billi this is how he got xfce-panel to start on boot    http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-415082.html16:37
micahhow do you go to your regular windows operating system when this is installed?16:37
mdmmicah: becase of how linux, well unix, in general runs applicaitons you can not get one to infect antoher (one of the aspects of a virus).  in fact its damn hard to get two programs to even talk to eachother (which is why they user things like semphores and sockets)16:37

shadeslayerHylian: i like superkaramba :)16:38
Hyliani have been looking on my own for 2 days. im starting to think i might have to use wine and a windows app16:38
Daraelmicah: If you want to reboot to windows, assuming you left it in place when you installed Ubuntu, you have an option at boot time.  You can even make it default if you like16:39
edbianHylian: "Hang Around" ?  Conky will stay on the desktop until you log out.  What do you mean Hang Around??16:39
shadeslayerhahaha16:39
Gird3rmdm: So how do I fix the ESSID and AP? Since nethier ESSID or AP get's set if I use respective command in terminal.16:39
Hyliani downloaded superkaramaba, but i have been having a hard time finding a widget, because none of them that i have read list audible weather alerts as a possible option. in windows i have 3 options...16:39
edbianmicah: Do you want help with something?  I'll be glad to help!16:39
usr13Gird3r: Log on to the router and change settings.16:39
Hylianedbian, i mean something that im not gonna accidentally close because it's listed in th taskbar below.16:40
Hylianso conky is not an option for me, but thanx for the suggestion16:40
Gird3rmdm: Well, I can only acces it from dads laptop since he is connected to the router. And it has Vista on it.16:40
usr13Gird3r: Change settings so that essid is brodcasted  and if the dhcp server is off, turn it on.16:40
Gird3rmdm: It's a dlink.16:40
mdmGird3r: the easiest would be to wimply use network manager16:40
PiciHylian: I beleive there are options you can set in Conky to have it not showup there16:40
mdm!wifi16:41
ubottuWireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs16:41
edbianHylian: You can configure conky to do that.  It is ridiculously configurable which I admit is daunting but that makes it powerful.  I understand if you want to use another app but I think you should at least understand that conky is powerful enough to do what you have described so far.16:41
bastidrazorGird3r, plug in to the router via ethernet to get the initial set up. then you're good16:41
Hylianim gonna be honest. i am looking for something relatively easy to set up. i want something thats gonna be install, choose possible sound, and enetr zipcode, tada, done.16:41
Gird3rmdm: I will take a look on the router and see if I find anything about essid.16:42
edbianHylian: That's fine :)  Thank conky is not a good choice :)16:42
edbianThank conky*16:42
edbianThan conky**16:42
Hylianif i had the know how then maybe, but i have to admit, the fact that conky looks like it's a terminal app doesnt fire my confidence.16:42
edbianmicah: See my personal message??16:42

edbianHylian: So you want an app that can run a command on certain weather events.  Is this correct?16:44
Hylianhe he i installed weatherbug, something i did not want to do, because it's adware. but it doesnt give me the option to have audible alerts, so i am thinking it doesnt have that option..16:44

mobi-sheepHylian: It's possible but I don't know how to do that myself.18:00
unopflohack, strange .. i wonder if this has anything to do with the CLASSPATH variables being tainted in your script's environment18:00
shadeslayerSuperninja: no viruses,faster boot times....18:00
gmachineSuperninja: it is different.18:00
pronoySuperninja: hell yeah !!18:00

flohackunop: I dumped the 'env' output and there is nothing related to 'CLASSPATH' in there.18:00
shadeslayerSuperninja: more customizations and options (KDE,Gnome)18:01
flohackunop: I'll pastebin the environment18:01

flohackunop: Good idea, I'll try that and have a look18:01

unopflohack, no idea .. sorry18:04
shadeslayertoter: whats the rpm of your drive?18:05
Hylianhey mdm, just how easy is it to write perl script. because if it is anything like fortran cobol or pascal, i would rather just let the tornado come.18:05
mobi-sheeppronoy: They're not working on features at the moment.18:05
ed__pronoy: Have you googled "ubuntu 9.10" or looked at the ubuntu website?  I know that they are very open about their release schedule18:05

kenoxissuing of kill gdm and then gdm does the trick18:07
farchumbreshadeslayer, have you have problems With multiple keyboard layouts?18:07
farchumbrei use english and spanish18:07
pronoyPici: well in their topic its written channel's for development purposes...so....18:07
KoolDhow do i unpack a tgz.uue file???18:07
unopflohack,  it's strange that quite a few .so files aren't being found ... it looks like the process is trying to find them in quite a few locations and is then giving up18:07
gmachinekenox: tty1 - tty-6 are command line18:07
rakudavehow come that when I use "apt-get upgrade", some packages are held back, but when I use the update-manager, they get installed? What do I have to do to get apt-get to install the same packages?18:07
shadeslayerfarchumbre: it crashed a few times and ran quite well....only thing was that it used to hang after sudo commands...18:07
Hylianseriously, anyone know if perl is easy. the highest lvl of programming im interested in is somehting like html18:07
shadeslayerfarchumbre: not any i remember off...18:08
gmachinekenox: tty7 starts the guis18:08
mobi-sheeprakudave: sudo aptitude full-upgrade <-- maybe.18:08
Picipronoy: It actually says 'discussion'18:08
flohackunop: It's just looking for libjli.so in various places18:08
kenoxyup i issue the commands "killall gdm" and then "gdm"18:08
Hylianisnt it apt-get dist-upgrade18:08
unopflohack, well, not just that .so .. but quite a few others too18:08
pronoyPice: eh ? oh yeah :) lol....but still its really early to ask .....18:08
kenoxno direct login to gnome18:08
rakudavemobi-sheep: thanks, didn't know about that option18:08
ed__Hylian: perl is ok.  Similar to C. Python is a dream in syntax :)18:09
gmachineI would caution anyone attempting a full upgrade - esp without backing up all your data18:09
Hylianok, is there a way to get wine to install a msi file?18:09
magnetronHylian: yes.18:09
farchumbreshadeslayer, i use spanish and english, and after using thinkfinger (sudo) the spanish layout indicator turns to '??'18:09
flohackunop: No, it just does a stat64 for the directory and then an open for the libjli.so file18:09
gmachineie, a full upgrade vs. a fresh install18:09
Hylianok cool18:09

gmachinekenox: I don't believe tty1-tty6 will work with gnome18:10
rakudavemobi-sheep: doesn't exixt...18:10
flohackunop: HEHE, setting ORIGIN to the right value before invoking java works around the problem...18:10
ed__Is there a way to start a gnome session automatically when I log in without using GDM?  I would like to log in via CLI and then have gnome start immediately upon login.18:10
unopflohack, really? that's odd18:10
mobi-sheeprakudave: What does not exist?18:10
=== ed__ is now known as edbian
flohackThat still does not explain why it goes wrong in the first place though...18:10
rakudavemobi-sheep: apt-get full-upgrade18:10
PiciHylian: I *think* its: wine /path/to/msiexec filename.msi      I'm not sure if you can do it without the path to msiexec, but doesn't hurt to try18:10
farchumbreis anyone using multi keyboard layouts (e. g english, spanish, french) With usb external keyboards or thinkfinger?18:11
mobi-sheeprakudave: That's not what I said.18:11
shadeslayerfarchumbre: its on their wiki18:11
kenoxno you got me wrong: i boot up the OS, iget only a mouse pointer, then i switch to tty1 and issue the commands, then everything becomes normal.18:11

wrinkliezany ideas? -_-18:12
Dr_Williswrinkliez:  when you next log in. that item may vanish18:12
edbianwrinkliez: Sometimes there is a small bug with the panel and it will leave apps that are actually missing.  If you reboot it will go away and you can manually remove it with the menu editor.18:12

ballooozahello, why is my 32 bit box not recognising all 4 GiB (3.6GB) of ram, I thought 32 bit was good up to 4 GB, I have an nvidia card, with 1GB of memory, this seems odd, because there is 1GB less memory then the ammount on 64 bit (I am too lazy to install 64 bit, I do have a 64 amd)18:15
shadeslayerballoooza: no you need 64 bit18:15
magnetronHylian: why is that odd? did it work for anyone else? (check the appdb)18:16

fccfstuNNed: yes .. that allows your local machine to access the local resources19:38
porter1mazda01, try changing that awful blue background with black.19:38
joeyeyetamale: I had this I think due to wireless and installed the jaunty backports - problem went away19:38
threexkIs there any reason not to delete old kernel packages?19:38
torn_So Ubuntu shouldn't be consoming more power than Windows XP on a netbook/laptop battery?19:39
tamalejoeyeye: interesting.. but I don't have any wireless devices.. this is a desktop19:39
sebsebsebthreexk: if the later kernel works for you, then you should be able to remove the older ones no problem19:39
tamaletorn_: depends on the video card in my experience19:39
threexksebsebseb: thanks19:39
sebsebsebthreexk: it's just if you have some issue with the later kernel, then you have old ones you can try as well19:39
mazda01joeyeye, as you can see the text is black and the background is blue.19:39
sebsebsebthreexk: np19:39
joeyeyetamale: I know you have no wireless. I was not sure that mine was a wireless problem or not - there was no give away errors in logs - system just froze ...19:39
torn_tamale, in this case, it is a netbook.19:39
usr13threexk: You may need to revert to one of the old ones, not likely, but possible.19:40
stuNNedfccf: thanks for your input, can i have as '127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost' and '127.0.1.1 localhost' ?19:40
mazda01porter1, the text is black. it should show up. this just worked a little bit ago. like a day ago. I changed the colors a long time ago.19:40
threexksebsebseb: makes sense.  I think I'll plan to keep the older ones around for a while, until I'm pretty sure there's no problem with the updated19:40
torn_I can barely touch 2 hours of battery life, even with my wireless card turned off and the screen at 0% brightness.19:40
tamalejoeyeye: I'll gladly try what you did.. how do I enable the same repos?19:40
joeyeyemazda01: yes but test.mpg is purple...19:40
tamaletorn_: you can watch your system load with several monitoring apps19:40

sebsebsebom26er: might be a ppa for it, but probably not,  but you can probably directly install from VLC19:41
fccfstuNNed: that is right 0.1 is the hostname resolution for the local machine and 1.1 is localhost ... both have to be there in order for everything to stay happy19:41
torn_tamale, it's mainly on idle, 0 - 4% CPU usage.19:41

mazda01joeyeye, cool.19:49
ActionParsnipentezflare: if you run: sudo lshw -C sound   you will see what your soundcard is19:49
sebsebsebentezflare: Great (sarcasm) yet another person with sound issues!   Did it work on the Live CD?19:49
somebee_spaceball1: that it was reported scanning for other servers and trying out root-passwords etc on other servers around the net.. when I ssh'd into it there were 10-20 ssh-scan (or something) running19:49
usr13!sound ubottu | entezflare19:49
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about sound ubottu19:49
stuNNedfccf: know how upon an ubuntu install it asks what hostname you would like the computer to be, and the default is user-desktop for ubuntu desktop version?  well that is not a fqdn19:49
ActionParsnip!sound | entezflare19:49
ubottuentezflare: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP319:49
stuNNedfccf: so i want a fqdn but the 127.0.1.1 is confusing me19:49
entezflareuhm, live cd?19:49

KlingaNGreetings! I am using a netbook named "HP Mini Note 2133". Along with this I am for the first time trying Linux, Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty).20:24
KlingaNProblem is as follows - I can not connect an external monitor and identify the monitor and use it as an extended desktop - but I can only use the same resolution as the netbook screen. The graphics driver is a "VIA Chrome G9".20:24

unitheorycarl5, what's wrong with your fonts?22:21
FAJhi i need help really bad:  i just installed jaunty and used an old /home directory, but now when i log in, all i see is A BLANK SCREEN WITH A MOUSE!  Can anyone help please?  I just removed compiz* and am going to restart, but the login happens, it seems to be with gnome..... help please?22:21
guntbert!please22:22
ubottuAvoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience22:22
gogetafaj you dont need gnome anyways lol22:22
carl5unitheory: there was some sort of vertical striping; it made the fonts look like they had really bad antialiasing, but when I dragged windows across it I could see them changed as they moved. I changed to 1600x1200 and it all got better22:22
FAJgogeta: that's not real helpful...22:22

ZykoticK9FAJ verify that you don't have an .xinitrc in your home folder - if you do "mv .xinitrc .xinitrcBACKUP" or something22:23
unitheorycarl5, you can adjust antialiasing in system > preferences > appearance > fonts22:23
FAJZykoticK9: ok will do in a ssec.22:23
carl5but it was not the antialiasing, because that would not change when the windows were dragged horizontally22:24
carl5it was like there were vertical stripes, and whatever part of the letter hit them would be changed22:25

toternexx; how come the live cd boots  fine and after you reinstall it doesn't load X23:02
Slartbarney-stinston: I've used it in the past.. not recently though23:02
Stanley_nexx: only one step at a time that way you can find whats causing the problem23:02
nexxwe think it has to do with nvidia drivers23:02
Stanley_nexx: why not have a smaller partition for your OS and the rest for storage?23:02
kinja-sheeptoter: Probably because it wasn't using 180 nvidia.  Just your basic Xorg would be my guess.23:02
barney-stinstonWell no, they have an Linux installation.. and I do have it installed, I can access the actual program and everything. The problem is that when I'm on there, I have problems with it having me constantly muted, like Mute Microphone and Mute Speakers/Headphone are constantly on, whenever I click on either of them nothing happens23:02
kinja-sheepnexx: Use LVM.  This way, you can resize it to 2TB later without having to reinstall.23:02

kinja-sheepulb: There are nothing new (packages related to the repo URL) that need to be reported. (Would be my guess).23:10

kinja-sheepvvpalin: You don't want to run everything in root.23:14
vvpalinim not on ubuntu23:14

kinja-sheepBT? Meh.23:15
bazhang#remote-exploit iirc23:15
vvpalini know im there23:15
vvpalinlol23:15
bazhangit's offtopic here23:15
kinja-sheepbazhang: BT?23:15
vvpalinwhats offtopic? asking for codecs ?23:15
bazhangkinja-sheep, backtrack is ubuntu-based, not Ubuntu23:16
bazhangat any rate vvpalin has his/her answer already23:16
Slartbarney-stinston: ok.. try this.. open a terminal23:16
vvpalinyes thank you again23:16
Slartbarney-stinston: that's in applications, accessories23:17
barney-stinstonopened23:17
Slartbarney-stinston: then do "cd teamspeak" or whereever you have teamspeak installed23:17
barney-stinstoni am actually terribly bad at this stuff, sorry, i have it installed in my home folder, would that be cd teamspeak still?23:18
kinja-sheepbazhang: Thank you for telling me that.  I never knew what BT was.  I googled and apparently "BackTrack 4 Pre-Release was released on June 19, 2009."  It was interesting thing to know.  Yes, offtopic.  </end>23:18
Slartbarney-stinston: yes.. when you start a terminal you will be in your home folder by default23:18
Slartbarney-stinston: you can type "ls" to get a list of folders and files in the current directory23:18
bazhangkinja-sheep, their channel is #remote-exploit if you want more info :)23:19
plaziaanyone have an x-fi working with pulseaudio? I did have it in 8.10 but I've dist-upgraded to 9.04 and its' not listed. Do I have to re-install the creative driver or is there a newer one?23:19
Slartbarney-stinston: remember to use capital letter where needed.. teamspeak and TeamSpeak is not the same in linux23:19
barney-stinstonoh okay23:19
barney-stinstonI believe cd TeamSpeak2RC2 worked23:19
barney-stinstonbarney-stinston@barney:~/TeamSpeak2RC2$   .. thats what i get now23:20
Slartbarney-stinston: you can also press <tab> to make it autocomplete if you have typed the first couple of letters23:20
barney-stinstonoh okay23:20
Slartbandwidthcrunch: great.. if you type "ls" now.. do you see a file called "teamspeak" or something like that?23:20
Slartoops.. sorry bandwidthcrunch23:20
xim_im trying to unzip multiple zip files but the filenames have spaces in them, and when i do "for i in *; do unzip $i; done" it seems like its only sending the characters before the first space into the i variable and all the unzips fail....any suggestions?23:20
Slartbarney-stinston: : great.. if you type "ls" now.. do you see a file called "teamspeak" or something like that?23:20
Slartbarney-stinston: the one you usually double click on to start teamspeak23:20
unopxim_, you need to quote $i to "$i"23:21
barney-stinstonyeah, well i believe it's just the folder23:21
barney-stinstonoh wait, ls again23:21
barney-stinstonsorry23:21
barney-stinstontwo seconds :p23:21
barney-stinstonI see it23:21
xim_unop thanks so much! it worked23:21
Slartbarney-stinston: ah.. what is the file called?23:21
barney-stinstonjust TeamSpeak23:22
Slartbarney-stinston: ok.. then in the terminal try typing "padsp TeamSpeak"23:22
sea4everHi, is there a way to upgrade a distribution if I have a newer dist on CD?23:23
yillowhy is right clicking disabled after the latest update?23:23

barney-stinstonhmm23:23
sololosher , I was "usingartistxlive" early this morning. If you see this, thank you for the walk-through last night on root password from live to installed! The repairs to x worked. Have a great day!23:23
Slartsea4ever: just insert the cd.. I think it will popup a window asking you if you want to update23:23
sea4everOr do I have to backup my settings and install from scratch?23:24
kinja-sheep!sshfs23:24
ubottuhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS23:24
Slartbarney-stinston: hmm.. no typos? uppercase, lowercase all correct?23:24
Slartbarney-stinston: oh.. wait.. my bad.. try this instead.. "padsp ./TeamSpeak"23:25
yillowhy is right clicking disabled after the latest update?23:25
Slart!details | yillo23:25
barney-stinstonteamspeak is already running, redirecting startupinfo23:25
barney-stinstonIf teamspeak is not running, delete the file "/tmp/.lock_teamspeakclient"23:25
ubottuyillo: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..."23:25
barney-stinstonso i guess i should close teamspeak and try that again?23:26
Slartbarney-stinston: ah.. you need to shut down teamspeak first23:26
barney-stinstonsorry :p23:26
Slartbarney-stinston: correct =)23:26
barney-stinstonokay i'll try it again23:26
barney-stinstonokay it's up23:26
Slartbarney-stinston: now for the billion-dollar question.. does it work?23:27
Slart=)23:27
yilloSlart: well, here are my details. my right clicking does not work. not in applications, not on the gnome desktop, not on the taskbar. that's it.23:27
barney-stinstonYeah :D23:27
barney-stinstonit works!23:27
barney-stinstonThanks a lot Slart, most appreciated23:28
yilloeven after a restart it still does not work, and this occured after the latest update23:28
psieHey guys, I am running Ubuntu 9.04 on a USB (Not a live cd, its a full install) and due to space issues I want to delete all gnome help files. Is there a package responsible for this? Or how do i remove all gnome help files?23:29
maveasIs there a shorter version of rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty?23:29
Slartbarney-stinston: you're welcome.. padsp is used to run applications that use OSS.. another sound system that was used earlier in linux.. it just translates whatever oss-stuff the app is trying to do into something that works with pulseaudio.. the new sound system ubuntu uses..23:29
kinja-sheepOooo.  sshfs is pretty nifty tool!  Daddy like like!23:29
edbianmaveas: shorter?  5 letters is too long for you?23:29
barney-stinstonOh okay, I'll keep it written down. Thanks so much for the help, very kind thing to be helping random people out :]23:29

laegi'd like to store the new gdms i've downloaded with the default unbuntu ones, where can they be found?23:31
barney-stinstonhey while I'm here, I've been having another problem with my firefox. It seems to spontaneously crash... maybe more so when I have a few tabs open that are loading stuff, but sometimes even when I only have one tab open23:31
edbianmaveas: "sudo rm -r dir name"23:31
kinja-sheeplaeg: How did you download them?23:31
laegkinja-sheep: from art.gnome.org23:32
edbian-r makes it recursive23:32
yillowhy does right clicking not work after the latest update? how can I enable it again?23:32
laegbarney-stinston: first thing you'll need to do is start the fox in safemode - try #firefox or irc.mozilla.org #firefox23:32
edbianmaveas: "sudo rm -r <dirname>"  to be more clear23:32
maveasNice, thanks23:32
kinja-sheeplaeg: Look in System --> Admin --> Login Window --> [under Remote tab]23:33
kinja-sheeplaeg: I turn mine off myself though (ie auto-login).23:33
barney-stinstonOkay23:33
laegkinja-sheep: hold up, i thought i had to keep the tar.gx file they came in but it appears i'm actually installing them with the gdm manager when i load them23:33
barney-stinstonhow do I open it in safe mode :$23:34
kinja-sheepAlrigh (I think).23:34
laegkinja-sheep: ty :)23:34
kinja-sheepbarney-stinston: Open what in safe mode?23:34
barney-stinstonFirefox :P23:34
kinja-sheepbarney-stinston:  Oh.  ALT + F2 --> "firefox -safe-mode"23:35
barney-stinstonThank you23:35
nicklas_yo23:36
ebilI can't seem to get resolv.conf to update in the manner I want. eth0 and ppp0 both pull dhcp addresses, I want to dismiss the nameserver/domain entries sent on eth0 (I think I fixed that by making an interface block with a mostly empty request line) but then even if I add prepend domain-name-servers 192.168.0.1, I only get the two nameservers provided by my ISP to ppp0 and my nameserver never makes it into /etc/resolv.conf. I'd rather not edit23:36
ebil by hand and lock (which seems to be the going solution)23:36
kinja-sheepbarney-stinston: In the future, read manual configuration (for any packages) by typing "man firefox" (Long & Detailed) -- OR -- "firefox --help" (Quick Summary).23:36
barney-stinstonOkay thanks Kinja :]23:37
kinja-sheeptoter: Mmm.23:40
kinja-sheeptoter: You there?23:40
toterkinja-sheep: so... nexx is running xorg fine on his machine?23:41
kinja-sheeptoter: He's not here. :3  And I found something that might help you cut down your bootup even more further.23:41
toterkinja-sheep: tell me...23:42
kinja-sheeptoter: ##  Increase the start speed of multi-core CPU systems. ##23:42
kinja-sheepThis will slow down systems that  have a single CPU. For multi core CPUs, we can change the services to all start together (in parallel) during boot time. The command to do this is:   sudo perl -i -pe 's/CONCURRENCY=none/CONCURRENCY=shell/' /etc/init.d/rc23:42
toterkinja-sheep: yeah yeah, i saw that... Mine is already set to "shell"23:43
kinja-sheeptoter: You ran the command or you set it up in GUI?  I got this somewhere off a site.23:43
toterit improved speed a lot using his23:43
toteri went /etc/init.d and then sudo nano rc23:43
ebilany way to make sure my local DNS rules get inserted into my resolv.conf file?23:44
toteri changed the value there and rebooted23:44

edbianGuest38194: :)  It's a lot of fun.  Go to ubuntu.com and download a live CD :)  Burn the iso (using an ISO burner) and boot your computer from it.  Do you know how to do all of that?23:50

ubottufretegi: At the moment there are many pidgin users experiencing problems connecting to Yahoo IM, you can try changing your paging server to cs101.msg.mud.yahoo.com and see if that helps.23:50
toterkinja-sheep: so... did it work for you? do you have a 64-bit processor?23:50
