[00:00] I want to be able to upgrade to ubuntu 8.10, which seems to insist on having a *-desktop package [00:00] I don't care if I have ubuntu or gos sound [00:00] kiah: What is gos-sounds? It's not in the repo? [00:00] sounds are annoying anyway [00:00] what is the name of the freetype2 library on ubuntu? [00:00] for apt-get installing [00:00] computers should be seen and not heard [00:00] kinja-sheep: it's like ubuntu-sound but for an ubuntu based distro called gos. [00:01] kiah: yes it does unfortunately, very annoying [00:01] kiah: so are you running gos or ubuntu? [00:01] kiah: You did look at "Sounds" option ? [00:01] Myrtti: gos. [00:01] kiah: Gos is not... welcome here. :) [00:01] hi, is ti possible to recover directory tree stucture on fat32? [00:01] kinja-sheep: why not? I could make all of the alterations to ubuntu that make gos and it would be supported here [00:02] kiah: and have you tried gos support irc channels? because this is ubuntu support channel [00:02] kiah: we cannot support every single spinoff of Ubuntu, same as Debian IRC channels don't support Ubuntu [00:02] kiah: Think of this -- Ubuntu is based on Debian. If we have problem, we wouldn't go to Debian. That same concept can be applied for GoS. [00:03] I accidentally deleted ~/.local. Is there anyway to make a new one (I don't need the old data, just a 'fresh' .local)? [00:03] sobczyk: you can use foremost to extract select file types from the partition [00:03] sobczyk: fat32 isnt very robust [00:03] Hi, I was looking for the file indexer in Ubuntu 9.04. I can't seem to find it. Where is it? [00:03] kinja-sheep: you wouldn't, because ubuntu has a big support channel, whereas gos doesn't [00:03] austin987: I guess you could create anew user and copy it over... [00:04] that's what I was beginning to think...wasn't sure if there was a command that could do it without going through that kludge [00:04] hey all [00:04] <|Ryan> b43-fwcutter won't configure my network card, this hasn't happened before, help somone? [00:04] kinja-sheep: but I do not choose to use gos. If I had my way, I'd never touch anything debian based. The fact is I have to and so I come here, where people support what is basically my OS, but comes with some default interface customisations [00:04] kiah: same principle [00:04] ActionParsnip, files are easy to recover, though I need the directory structure [00:05] <|Ryan> b43-fwcutter won't configure my network card, this hasn't happened before, help somone? [00:06] sobczyk: youcould use dd_rescue then you could fsck the image using autorepair options [00:06] Myrtti: No. Ubuntu and Debian are very different. Ubuntu has masses of layers of newbie-friendly crap piled onto it. Gos is ubuntu with a nice theme and a different window manager. [00:06] Myrtti: totally different principle [00:06] kiah, it's offtopic here (ie not supported) [00:06] Newbie-friendly crap eh? [00:07] Ubuntu 9.04 keeps freezing on me, is that due to the nVidia drivers? [00:08] lwells: We don't know === Adam is now known as Guest41730 [00:08] lwells: check dmesg [00:08] How do I do that?

[00:13] |Ryan: you never said you were on the problematic system. [00:13] |Ryan: I could assume a lot, doesnt make it right or true [00:13] kinja-sheep: exactly [00:13] does any one know why when i delete a document or file it doesnt go to my trashcan or show up?

How do I find out? [00:18] Hi, it is possible to have an hp printer not present during an install, but be detected when it is attached later, right?

[00:18] Am I correct that filesystem types like proc and tempfs aren't actually partitions, but pseudopartitions? [00:18] Is there a command to find out motherboard bio version or we'd have to reboot? [00:19] cjae: yes, you just have to configure it [00:19] twig11: Reboot and find out is one way. The other way? Command, maybe. You should have v1.1.4 -- If not, then you need to flash your bios to a latest version. [00:19] kinja-sheep: rebooting... [00:19] twig11: Go ahead and reboot, I suppose. :) [00:19] kinja-sheep: hwinfo may do. i think it's gonna need a reboot [00:20] Hi, I was looking for the file indexer in Ubuntu 9.04. I can't seem to find it. Where is it? [00:21] ewsubach, as opposed to it being configured during install [00:21] kinja-sheep: oops. newbie here as you can see. I hit F12 and I'm in the boot device menu now. how can I find out the bios from here? [00:21] twig11: You don't want boot device. You want setup or something erratic similar. === atoi_ is now known as atoi [00:22] twig11: Also, you may notice it right away at bootup. (v1.1.4) or so. [00:22] cjae: yes it should auto detect when you plug it in [00:22] twig11: Reboot again! >_> [00:22] twig11: Or you haven't done so. [00:22] cjae: not sure if it would autoconfigure during install. it will be detectable regardless, you just need to see if it is supported by any drivers. There is a GUI to help you with that and plenty of web pages also. [00:22] rebooting [00:22] twig11: f2 for dell [00:23] musikgoatimain:thanks [00:23] hi all [00:23] cjae: but yes, you don't have to configure during install. anything that is not done during install can be done later [00:23] oops got that nick wrong [00:23] its cool [00:23] * JordanC slaps kinja-sheep with a fusion coil [00:23] !tab | twig11 [00:23] twig11: You can use for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.

It's your MOTHERboard. You need to flash it to v1.1.4. ;) [00:25] kinja-sheep: Lucky for me I have no nose hair [00:25] twig11: Not sure how one would do it in linux.

[00:58] shunobies: looks like there are two packages -nonfree and -installer [00:58] d3bug: #xchat ? [00:58] tried... nobody is either awake or talkin about it :| [00:59] i was hoping that maybe i might find some answers elsewhere [00:59] can anyone explain "Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = -88024496 ns)" receiving this entry in /var/log/messages during boot [00:59] d3bug: What are you scripting? I'm thinking about a script. Maybe you can write something for me! Try #bash or #python -- Based on its language. [00:59] xchat's default behavior is the problem.... I am trying to connect to Buzzen, which is an ircx server... the problem is that xchat automatically sends a NICK notice to the server upon connection [01:00] d3bug: that is required in normal irc [01:00] mandrig: same boat :-) [01:00] kjell, it removed the installer i didn't have the nonfree [01:00] that logs u in as a guest... it never authenticates me, because they don't use a normal nickserv systsem [01:00] d3bug: ircx is a different protocol [01:01] shunobies: good try to see whether you have those .so files [01:01] yes, i know... i was hoping there was a way to change xchats default behavior.... like u can with mirc [01:01] what can you put in /etc/fstab so that the usb disk is recognized>? [01:01] it wants uuid? [01:01] d3bug: I think it may be the case that mirc has support for both protocols while xchat does not. I am not sure about this assessment, however. [01:01] d3bug: maybe through a plugin [01:02] maha: usb stick should be mounted automatically [01:02] d3bug: Maybe be more open-mind. Don't depend solely on XChat. There could be some clients that supports ircx or such. [01:02] Kjell, Its not [01:02] pidgen [01:02] mirc doesn't support ircx directly, what it has the ability to do is intercept all sockets through scripting so you can parse and send what u want raw [01:02] ;0 [01:02] kjell, well it removed the installer and now my flash player in the browser is working agin [01:02] kjell, so far my comp has not locked up that's strange === TheQ_ is now known as TheQ [01:03] kinja-sheep, the reason i like xchat is that it processes the cryptic nicknames PERFECTLY :) [01:03] ircx is an extension developed by the evil empire called Microsoft why would you want a client that supports this protocol? [01:03] d3bug: irssi could probably use plugins for new protocols [01:03] d3bug: I know that there is an irssi plugin for silc [01:03] slacker_bourne, to chat on buzzen [01:04] maha: reconnect you usb and type dmesg | tail 10 and see what usb block device it is first [01:04] shunobies: that is good.

I extracted to the destop then tried to ./configure then got child return error [03:18] so im selecting guest, messing up the password 3 times which lets me change username to 2 and then i can log into 2 [03:20] bastidrazor: That worked! Thanks a lot for your help!! [03:20] Hi. Every time I try to connect to my wireless network it says "Connection on WLAN Interface Failed" How can i figure out why its doing this so i can fix it?

[03:21] DarkMage26, add its ip and hostname to /etc/hosts then you should be able to ssh/scp what have you via hostname [03:21] DarkMage26, or you could try ssh hostname.local of the other box [03:22] bastidrazor, it doesn't auto detect the other computers on the network? [03:23] DarkMage26, no, not that i'm aware of. [03:23] hola, I used to know this, but I forgot; I believe there is a way to search a file for strings/patterns with grep, and then change those to something else? I needed to fix a few code things, since this forum is going from using BB to html [03:24] like the info in IMG tags, get rid of the tags, and put into an img src html thing [03:24] trying to install tgz. I extracted to the destop then tried to ./configure then got child return error [03:24] bastidrazor, so I manually add the ip address but what happens if another computer takes that ip address first?

[03:25] The newest version of firefox is not on repositories i click on reload and the newest firefox is 3.08 am i doing something wrong? [03:25] Can anyone help me burn a cd from amarok 2.0.2? [03:25] DarkMage26, you could use hostname.local instead of adding the ip of it. that will find it regardless of the ip. my home network has all static ip's. which is a smart way to go for home networks [03:26] wondering....what is the easiest way to get two ntfs drives to mount at startup === bill-e11 is now known as bill-e1 [03:26] tried a guide online and it failed me [03:26] laymansnerd, add them to /etc/fstab [03:26] practice ...... [03:26] laymansnerd: ive used a script intsead of fstab before, but no real reason to do that [03:27] krammer_, did you install build-essential ? [03:27] i think that to find text and replace i need to pipe it out of grep but ive completely forgotten how to do it, and having trouble finding out how [03:27] anyone using ddwrt? [03:27] gcc? [03:27] UUID=7CC0A0B9C0A0A7AD2 /dev/sdc1 ntfs defaults,nls-utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 1 [03:27] krammer_, build-essential is a metapackage that installs everything you should need to build from source [03:27] does that look like what i should have? [03:27] neildomo: you have to use amarok or just want to or... [03:28] bastidrazor, I have 2 notebooks that leave and enter the network all the time. How and where do I put the info? [03:28] I need help in interpreting instructions at http://www.linuxinsight.com/how-to-flash-motherboard-bios-from-linux-no-dos-windows-no-floppy-drive.html [03:28] I'm trying to update my bios [03:28] twig11, why? [03:28] I just want to build playlist in amarok, so I can hear the music I'm selecting [03:28] DarkMage26, dhcp .. when they are connected you can add them and give them static ip's [03:29] unitheory: i used to get weird errors when I didnt have "ntfs-3g" [03:29] laymansnerd: either use a UUID=blah *or* /dev/sdc1 but not both... [03:29] unitheory: because my mouse becomes unresponsive within minutes of logging in and the bios update is supposed to fix it. [03:29] nigtv: I can burn mp3s to cd with any burn program, but I'd like to use amarok to build a list first, and then use that to burn, if I can [03:29] laymansnerd, a GUI HowTO is here :: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G [03:29] how do i become chanop in my own channel?

[03:30] neildomo: there a few built in, if the error is with amarok, have you been able to before, like is your drive set up alright? [03:30] laymansnerd, no the /dev/sdc1 should be the mount point .. where do you want to mount it? [03:30] What could cause ~/ICEauthority to become owned by root? KDE was unable to start because it couldn't write to it. [03:30] i have done the wiki setup [03:30] unitheory: I'm stuck at step 3 [03:30] laymansnerd: bastidrazor is right.... [03:31] how do i tell what version of flash i got? [03:31] you can use the 'burn' command line tool, or try another program [03:31] i want my drives to become available when i startup [03:31] nigtv: Actually, I recently built this system. I'll try using k3b or something to test now. [03:31] ahh that would be /media/TV Shows right? [03:31] if that's the name that /dev/sda1 has [03:32] DarkMage26, you can add a bookmark.. i do Places>connect to server> choose ssh .. in the options i choose to make a bookmark . that will give it a place in bookmarks under places [03:32] neildomo: if you are comfortable in the terminal, burn has an auto set up utility, can help alot more than anything graphic if you are alright with the term. [03:32] ubuntu comes with a burn utility as well, under accessories, in addition to others scattered about [03:32] ok i think i've got it [03:33] gonna restart and see :-) brb [03:33] laymansnerd, wait!! [03:33] yes? [03:33] laymansnerd, just umount the mountpoint of the drive then do sudo mount -a .. if it mounts you are correct [03:34] laymansnerd, mount -a will read your fstab and mount what it can provided by the file. if it doesn't mount you did it wrong [03:34] ok says those entries are bad [03:34] I still having pulseadio setup problems, No one has offered advice, i have asked 2 times in last 30mins, someone tell me where to go or what to do please ? [03:34] if firefox on ubuntu is suppose to update automatically anyway to force firefox to update now? [03:34] unitheory Fixed it, deleted the package from /var/lib/dpkg/status [03:34] yesitisjustme: update to what? [03:35] bastidrazor, how do I find out what the hosts name is on my system? [03:35] DarkMage26, in a terminal type hostname [03:35] it has firefox 3.0.8 and want to update to firefox 3.0.11 [03:36] yesitisjustme: system > admin > update manager [03:36] now it's telling me i can't mount those two partitons [03:36] Hey, I'm having some trouble with sound delays in games when I'm using ALSA. Has anybody else had similar issues? [03:37] ok last question, can any see this ? [03:37] I'm having trouble with the instructions at http://www.linuxinsight.com/how-to-flash-motherboard-bios-from-linux-no-dos-windows-no-floppy-drive.html . Does ANYONE on here know anything about flashing an update to the bios from a FreeDos liveCD? [03:37] http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/products/download.html?product=firefox-3.0.11&os=linux&lang=en-US [03:37] xemacs4321: yes, why? === shunobies is now known as shunobies_away [03:37] * shunobies_away is away: Gone away for now [03:37] twig11, ubuntu uses genisoimage instead of mkisofs [03:37] bastidrazor, I get an error of "hostname not known". [03:37] laymansnerd, apparently you didn't do fstab edits correctly [03:37] i asked question 2 times about pulse audio no answers [03:37] xemacs4321: A lot of questions here, not many answers. What's your issue? [03:38] DarkMage26, huh.. in /etc/hosts/ what does 127.0.1.1 ____ < say ? [03:38] Giraffe, i have minimal volume on speakers, cant find a way to increase it ? [03:38] hmm [03:39] what do you mean? [03:39] the volume is too low? [03:39] Giraffe, i can barely hear anything,, volume controls don't increase it [03:39] Giraffe, are you using pulse audio? [03:39] rdw, yes [03:39] bastidrazor, my host name that I used to try and connect to from the other system. I typed it in just as it is in the file. [03:39] Can some one help me with a fresh grub install? /boot/ got really messed up [03:40] rdw200169: I'm not...I'm actually trying to see if I can get rid of it [03:40] or rather, fix a sound issue too [03:40] Chaorain: maybe. What happened? [03:41] Giraffe, well, if you're dealing with sound delay problems w/pulse audio, you can change the codec-type information that the pulseaudio daemon uses... kinda like setting the quality level of encoded information [03:41] losher, I'm try to put a custom ubuntu on an external HDD and need to put grub on it [03:41] Giraffe, also, its usually helpful to turn off features, like synchronous sound output [03:41] unitheory: That's not my problem. it may be really simple, actually. [03:41] rdw200169: I don't think it's pulse actually [03:41] twig11, go on... [03:41] I think it has to do with ALSA [03:41] losher, I think not all the files made it over. let me try that again [03:41] rdw200169, can you try to help me next ? [03:42] xema [03:42] if you follow my link above, it's step 3 I'm having trouble with [03:42] DarkMage26, 127.0.1.1 bastid .. bastid would be my hostname.. is that what you're using? and that is the hostname of only the box you're on. [03:42] xemacs, right click on the audio icon on your panel and select volume control [03:42] unitheory: should I not even be trying this? [03:42] unitheory, it does NOTHING! [03:42] Giraffe, believe me, if you're using pulse, its highly likely that its a pulse issue, b/c alsa is just a hardware layer interface to pulse when using pulse, and many options (etc...) can be set for pulseaudio to increase or decrease quality, loss, etc... [03:42] bastidrazor, my host name is kevin-laptop. [03:43] rdw200169: I thought it was pulse, but I'm definitely not now :P [03:43] xemacs4321, type alsamixer into a panel [03:43] the issue is actually with games; I get a pretty nasty (0.2+ second) lag with all sounds [03:43] Giraffe, using pulse? well, you can see if you type "ps -AF | grep pulseaudio" [03:43] twig11, right, mkisofs is in step 3. what exactly is your problem? [03:44] nope, not using it :P [03:44] thanks was able to update firefox [03:44] unitheory: I just get an error when I try to copy to the CD [03:44] how can I list the files included with a package? [03:44] xemacs4321, into a terminal rather [03:44] DarkMage26, okay.. from the other box you should have the ip of kevin-laptop like so.. ip kevin-laptop in /etc/hosts then you can ssh username@kevin-laptop from the other box to connect to the laptop [03:44] xemacs, yeah, that, or you can right-click the volume icon on your task bar and select 'open volume control' [03:44] twig11, with cdrecord? [03:44] hey I was wondering if anyone has any success with wpa_supplicant and ath9k [03:45] unitheory: No, with mkisofs -o bootcd.iso -b FDOEM.144 FDOEM.144 [03:45] xemacs4321, ah, my last message was for you [03:45] unitheory: can you explain that command so I know exactly what I'm doing? [03:46] unitheory, i have volume set to max for also ..... [03:46] xemacs4321, then, from there, select your primary sound card (for me its HDA Nvidia), and go to preferences on the bottom right and make sure *all* the boxes are checked [03:46] twig11, are you ABSOLUTELY positive that that bios update will work on your motherboard? if not sure then you should NOT continue [03:46] xemacs, then, that *should* show some perhaps hidden volume controls that may be down/low [03:46] xemacs, turn PCM all the way up too [03:46] xemacs4321, turn PCM all the way up too [03:46] unitheory: I downloaded this update from Dell for this computer. [03:47] unitheory, yeah, i did it too ;) [03:47] i just purged pulse gonna try more myself [03:47] xemacs4321, make sure line out is maxed out for alsa [03:47] unitheory: so I think it's for sure [03:47] gonna check if alsa mixer works stand alone [03:47] xemacs4321, sigh, 99% of the time, the problems don't go away when you get rid of pulse [03:48] twig11, "FC0EM.144" is the name of the extracted folder containing the files you want to burn. refer to man genisoimage for more information. [03:48] i am almost 100% this one will [03:48] rdw200169, +1 [03:48] cabrey, you agree with me? [03:48] absolutely [03:48] cabrey, thank you, i see you also know the role pulseaudio plays in xemacs4321 's problem... [03:49] the low volume issue i had was alsa's fault [03:49] cabrey, thats what i'm trying to explain [03:49] bastidrazor, I now get a connection refused from the server. [03:49] unitheory: so I'm creating an ISO image named FDOEM.144? [03:50] DarkMage26, do you have openssh-server installed on both boxes? [03:50] xemacs4321, yeah, what i'm trying to tell you, is that its likely there's a hidden volume control thats low, unrelated to pulseaudio [03:50] twig11, no, youre creating an iso image named bootcd.iso [03:50] * cabrey can't wait for the sound panel that was introduced in Fedora 11... [03:50] xemacs4321, what you need to understand, is that alsa and pulseaudio work *together*, you can't have one, without the other, when you want to use pulseaudio [03:50] twig11, you need to replace fd0em with the one you have [03:51] cabrey, actually, i find that everything i need for pulse is already available in the ubuntu repos, they just aren't installed by default [03:51] unitheory: FDOEM.144 is the one I have [03:51] ok [03:51] nigtv: k3b burned mp3 files onto a cd, but the interface froze halfway through. I installed burn, but it doesn't seem to sense the cd in the drive. [03:51] twig11, so use genisoimage -o bootcd.iso -b FDOEM.144 FDOEM.144 [03:51] cabrey, are you talking about the refurbished sound-preferences app introduced in the most recent release of gnome (jaunty) ? [03:51] twig11, right? [03:51] rdw200169, it's a unified sound UI. it consolidates all the various mixer UIs together [03:53] cabrey, are you talking about this? gnome-volume-control-pulse [03:53] rdw200169, look in #ubuntu-offtopic [03:54] alguien habla español?

[03:55] nekroide: was it you and I that were talking about implementing the google labs math thing into sudo? [03:56] bastidrazor, then how do I disconnect from that server? [03:56] twig11, if the BIOS update fails somehow, your motherboard will become unusable. be very careful. [03:56] DarkMage26, type logout or exit [03:57] bastidrazor, thanks for the help!!! [03:57] DarkMage26, now you can connect to them via places>connect to server and add a bookmark so they'll be just a click away. [03:57] mandrig no...

[04:11] DarkMage26: I'm taking it a step at a time. I haven't figured out the rest of the instructions yet. [04:11] fosa, first what browser? [04:11] firefox [04:11] hi.........every body [04:11] DarkMage26: I shouldn't be doing this at all, but I really want to get ubuntu running on here.

[04:13] twig11, Flashing a bios is only scary when the disc is not verified and has a problem. I had a copy of the ubuntu live cd I downloaded and burnt without verification.

[04:14] can someone tell twig11 how to verify his disc from the iso file? [04:15] unitheory: md5sum [04:15] ok [04:15] kinja-sheep, and then md5sum /dev/cdrom ? [04:15] twig11, you know how to use md5sum? [04:15] kinja-sheep, just the md5 of the iso doesnt help much ;] [04:16] !md5 | twig11: [04:16] twig11:: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [04:16] DarkMage26: I just did it and got the md5sum of the iso file. how do I check the cd? [04:16] unitheory: Generally you test the iso (knowing you downloaded a good ISO) then you burn it slowly (ensure it's going well) and that's it. I'm not sure about md5sum the disc but I suppose that's... possible. Gotta look up on Internet though. [04:17] hi all [04:17] twig11, md5sum /dev/cdrom. [04:17] can anyone help me with some sound problems...cause i am a newbie.....and....plz.... [04:18] kinja-sheep: twig11: when you boot the cd, the boot menu offers a check disk option, which md5sum checks the disk [04:18] danbhfive: We're not talking about Ubuntu disc. ;) [04:18] danbhfive, he's not checking an ubuntu install disc [04:18] ah, ok [04:19] well....i have installed it correctly if i am not wrong but still i get no sound from my sound card....... [04:19] ???? [04:19] twig11: Is the boot disc inside the tray? [04:19] plz.....some directions on how to fix it.... [04:19] twig11: If you burn using Brasero, it can check the disk after burning it.

[04:20] ty [04:20] twig11, when you did the md5sum? [04:20] Sanctus: np [04:21] kinja-sheep: yeah I did that. [04:21] DarkMage26: yes [04:21] twig11: You did what? isoinfo -d -i name.iso? [04:22] kinja-sheep: yes [04:22] twig11: What did you get? Information please. [04:22] what is a directory save package installed ? */archive ? [04:22] Anyone know how to cd to a directory in .screenrc? Using the actual cd command is unrecognized. [04:22] i dont think the md5 of the file and the disc would be the same anyway [04:22] lavecoi_: try: locate .deb [04:23] twig11, what is the size of the disc files? [04:23] kinja-sheep: I'm online with a different computer so I can't cut and paste. bootid etc.; boot media 2 (1.44MB Floppy) [04:23] ericindc: Use cd ? [04:23] more stuff like that [04:24] twig11, is it the same size as the iso (within a few bytes)? [04:24] hi! if i was to set /etc/resolv.conf manually, how would i go about it? like identifying the nameserver? (dhcp btw) [04:24] What's the logical block size and volume size? [04:24] twig11: ^^ [04:24] kinja-sheep: That doesn't work. And the screen window fails to load. [04:24] Hello everyone [04:25] ericindc: Where are you now? In the terminal? [04:25] I was told I might find help in here [04:25] dsdeiz, there is a way, hold on, lemme get you a link [04:25] kinja-sheep: logical block size: 2048; Volume size: 896 [04:25] dsdeiz, /etc/resolv.conf is set automatically by network-manager each time it connects to a network [04:25] kinja-sheep: yes [04:25] dsdeiz, ah, look up the resolvconf package [04:26] twig11: Assuming the cd is in the tray, run "dd if=/dev/dvd bs=2048 count=896 | md5sum" [04:26] twig11: Then you can compare if the md5sum is same (ie good). [04:26] ericindc: What's the actual command you used? [04:26] twig11, that is a good idea [04:27] dsdeiz, ah, after installing resolvconf, you get a new /etc/ directory: /etc/resolvconf ... from there, there is the file /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/original ... you change that file to reflect the way you want /etc/resolve.conf you look [04:27] hola gente [04:27] alguien habla [04:27] español [04:27] es urgente..

[04:29] twig11, is that info the same as the iso? [04:30] twig11: Does the cd checksum match the iso checksum? [04:30] kinja-sheep: DarkMage26: but guys, I don't even know how to get back to where my other checksum is further up the terminal window without using my mouse. [04:30] I installed LinuxMCE on a pc and it has 2 nics, 1 is built in ethernet and the other is a wifi dongle. I want to connect the wifi dongle to my neighbors wifi and then let the linuxmce pc be the dhcp server in my home.... [04:30] twig11, rerun the md5sum on the iso now.

[04:32] DarkMage26: kinja-sheep: checksums don't match [04:32] okay thx [04:32] Travo18, can I be of some assistance? [04:32] twig11, then you might want to reburn it. What commands did you use to start the burn? [04:32] it is a netgear wg111 [04:33] twig11, i wouldn't really expect the sums to match. cd media are completely different than hard drives. that doesn't mean the disc is bad. === spastic_teapot is now known as spasticteapot [04:33] Cray2000, and what kind of router do you use? [04:33] well i was talking with bazhang a while ago and he helped me configure to stop it coming up saying that ubuntu is running in low graphics mode now i tried to do the same thing but this time no propietry drivers show up which was how we fixed it last time [04:34] DarkMage26: I used the ones listed at number 3 on this page: http://www.linuxinsight.com/how-to-flash-motherboard-bios-from-linux-no-dos-windows-no-floppy-drive.html [04:34] linksys wrt54g [04:34] now I'm restarting the machine in question because I want to use the mouse and its frozen [04:35] twig11: just restart the xserver [04:35] Travo18, what graphics card are you running? [04:35] i am not sure [04:35] Darkmage26, I have the dhcp turned off so it lets the linuxmce give out ips, but that isnt the router I want to connect to. its my neighbors that I want to connect to.

[04:37] "dongle" just sounds so dirty [04:37] Travo18, run the follwing command sudo lspci | grep pci [04:37] twig11, what was the size of the disc after burning? [04:37] Darkmage26, yes it sees it but I cant use it. I put it in my other Kubuntu pc and it sees it and will connect but the other is a different version and does not have all the same utilities [04:38] lol [04:38] iamtechno: hang on now that i am trying to start up it comes up and says that the graphical interface is not set up proplerly and that i need to reconfigure it then says xserver has stopped please restart once gdm is correctly configured [04:38] twig11: Letting you know -- I'm still here. [04:38] DarkMage26: I'm restarting. I'll check when I log in [04:39] Travo18, what ubuntu is it running do you know? [04:39] 9.04 [04:39] Cray2000, so it works at other locations but not at your neighbors? [04:39] mobi-sheep: Good. chime in if you have something useful to add. [04:39] twig11: Mmm. You added the drivers/information from Dell site to ISO already? [04:39] twig11: Remember -- I just got here. [04:40] jajaja i was tinking this was ubuntu-es and i read all in english jajaja [04:40] bye [04:40] mobi-sheep, he needs to verify the burn and he should be good to go. [04:40] i cant seem to open a rar without some permissions blurb [04:40] strange [04:40] mobi-sheep: I've done everything through step 3 here: http://www.linuxinsight.com/how-to-flash-motherboard-bios-from-linux-no-dos-windows-no-floppy-drive.html [04:40] Travo18, can you get it to a command line? [04:40] twig11, DarkMage26: Got links for me to read? [04:41] what is more stable 8.10 or 9.04 [04:41] binaural: i've seen that when its not a complete multipart rar pack [04:41] sl1ckx: Either. You wanted the stable? Go with 8.04 LTS. [04:41] sl1ckx, 8.04.2 [04:41] binaural: you have unrar-free, i assume? [04:41] DarkMage26: Okay, now how do I know if the file downloaded from the Dell site okay? [04:41] iamtechno: yeh i think so i can run commands [04:41] or .3 ? [04:41] thanks [04:41] Darkmage26, no not exactly. When I insert the dongle (that does sound dirty) in this pc I am useing now it will connect fine and I am good. When I insert it into my linuxmce pc it gets disabled and I wouldnt know how to connect it if it wasnt disabled. This pc is useing Kubuntu 9.04 KDE4 I think, the other one is like ver 7.xxx I think....but the web site sayto not try it on a newer version as it was buggy on all other except that r [04:41] well it was originally saved on disc from a vista platform [04:41] Cray2000, wait, so you're trying to piggy-back internet off your neighbor using a linux computer as a router? [04:41] what can i do in LIVE usb boot that i cant with not LIVE [04:41] I've noticed that unfocused windows have slightly transparent chrome. I think this is really slowing my computer down. How can I turn this off? I'm using Compiz and have CompizConfigSettingsManager [04:42] I have a fresh install of Jaunty and an ATI card I'd like to use the proprietary drivers for. The restricted drivers thing isn't finding any to suggest for me. Am I going to be able to install appropriate drivers, or do I have to use an Ubuntu with an older version of X, or what? [04:42] DarkMage26: I can't find a checksum on their site. [04:42] binaural: maybe its encrypted [04:42] maybe i got coruppted reps [04:42] and have to remove and redo [04:42] what can i do in LIVE usb boot that i cant with not LIVE? [04:42] Travo18, then run lspci | grep pci [04:42] binaural: maybe [04:42] rdw200169, well I guess thats a way to put it....I think. I really dont know. I wasnt a linux user a week ago [04:42] what is that line straight up?? [04:43] twig11: What's the dell site? Making sure you have right model. There are two link, I recall. [04:43] papna, you can download the updated official drivers at ati.amd.com [04:43] papna> depends on how *old* the card is, probablynot supported anymore by prop driver [04:43] binaural: there is a t flag for testing an archive in unrar [04:43] twig11: See what I'm talking about? "WARNING: Flashing motherboard BIOS is a dangerous activity that can render your motherboard inoperable! While the author of this article has successfully run this procedure many times, your mileage may vary. Be careful!" [04:43] satellite, live cd and live usb are pretty much the same (usb boot slower but runs faster) you can set up the usb as persistant, meaning you can save changes between boots. [04:43] twig11, the file from them is good. When the burner doesn't verify the data you run the risk of failed burn on that disc. [04:43] smil3y, ya thats true. keep forgeting that not everyone has the same hardware that I have. [04:43] ya,i still dunno fi i can extract anythin [04:44] DarkMage26: I just checked the CD and the iso. the iso is 1.8 M and the CD is 1.4. How can that be? [04:44] I can't seem to set up this cron job. I want it to start a GUI program. [04:44] unitheory, live means i can install programs and have a desktop and home folder? [04:44] i have yet to find an archive that extracts [04:44] binaural: are you familiar with the command line? unrar t /path/to/file.rar [04:44] twig11, the iso file has that much more info to work like it does. [04:44] so this is my line from cron: * * * * * export DISPLAY=:0.0 && [04:44] Compiz in Ubuntu 9.04 has performance issues. My computer ran a lot faster with 8.10. How do I turn off translucent system chrome? [04:44] mobi-sheep: yeah. believe me, I'm scared [04:44] twig11: Hardware Specs again. [04:44] the command works fine from the command line but it does nothing from cron [04:44] where is the error being logged to? [04:45] satellite, are you asking about a comparison between live USB and CD? [04:45] not really,but i mean ive done it a few times [04:45] halberd: Are you doing anything to get past xauth requirements? [04:45] no from live usb and regular usb [04:45] twig11, what is wrong with the computer you are on now to burn the disc? [04:45] or is it only live [04:45] halberd: You can check out System Monitor under Admin. [04:45] halberd: you have to run the command as a users [04:45] *user [04:45] what user is cron? [04:45] halberd: Err... Log Viewer* [04:46] halberd: no you would run it as your user or a ficticious one [04:46] twig11: Specs? [04:46] this ubuntu rocks my hp/compaq 6710b,right down to the wireless card which can be used in monitor mode [04:46] what do you mean musikgoat|main , add a su myself && at the start of the line in cron? [04:46] mobi-sheep: Dell Dimension c521 with an AMD Athlon processor [04:46] man i should swithed to linux ages ago [04:47] * * * * * halberd export DISPLAY=:0.0 && [04:47] halberd: cron can run jobs as different users. It depends on how you specified the cron entry. You can set up a job to run as your account. [04:47] bratty? [04:47] yes [04:47] where is the trash on the netbook remix without switching to normal desktop? [04:47] iamtechno, smil3y, it's an X1300, moderately old, but ATI still offers me a linux driver. When I run their installer, it complains "Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version [04:47] default:v2:x86_64:lib32::none:2.6.28-13-generic; make sure that the version is being [04:47] correctly set by --iscurrentdistro" [04:47] satellite, i don't know what you are taking about [04:47] Forgive the flood. [04:47] binaural: Right on! [04:48] DarkMage26: I'd have no idea how to create a floppy image and burn it to a cd on this computer. iBook G4 running osx tiger [04:48] !trash | Babbleback [04:48] Babbleback: The location of Trash has changed since 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash [04:48] papna> try an older version that that, its saying it doesnt support it [04:48] can one make a shortcut to it in the netbook remix favorites or something? [04:49] halberd: You can set up a cron job to run as a specific account using "crontab -e" from that account. [04:49] twig11, has the computer with the problem had any problems with the cdrom or power or anything else? [04:49] that's what I did stroyan [04:49] still not working === dtcrshr is now known as datacrusher [04:49] papna> unless the ati driver doesnt support the xorg version in jaunty which may be case as well [04:49] DarkMage26: no. and we're not having a thunderstorm right now. [04:49] why did they change the location of trash? [04:49] halberd: and i'm not sure you can export in cron [04:49] halberd: what are you trying to do? [04:50] papna> then basically your screwed unless you go back to LTS [04:50] twig11, how bad do you need to do this?? [04:50] musikgoat|main, I did the same thing on my other laptop (which is kubuntu) and it worked [04:50] halberd: ok [04:50] DarkMage26: Bad. He experiences USB lockup. Keyboard/Mouse/etc. [04:50] but it's not working here [04:50] twig11, is there an imminent thermo-nuclear attack? because if there is i would not recommend attempting to update your bios at this time. [04:51] smil3y, My original suggestion is it might have been an X compatibility thing. Hardy is the right bet for getting the X I may need? [04:51] DarkMage26: I have to do it if I want to run linux on this box. I can't use it without a mouse. [04:51] wait wtf now it just worked [04:51] Cray2000: so you have 2 pc's one with kubuntu 9.04 that works(wifi) and one that has kubuntu 7. something with linuxmce on it that does not work? [04:51] twig11, then go ahead and start the reboot with the disc in it. [04:51] does cron use the same shell, could it need to be called with /bin/bash ? [04:51] halberd: oh, nvm [04:51] not sure why [04:51] unitheory: I can't tell for sure. [04:51] Darkmage26 and rdw200169 here is an exerpt from the web site explaing what I am trying to do but the first NIC is a wifi one.The recommended configuration for a LinuxMCE Core is to have 2 network cards, and plug 1 of them into the external internet (the cable or DSL modem), and the other into the internal switch that the other computers and devices in the house connect to. This allows the LinuxMCE Core to act as a firewall to protec [04:51] devices in the house, and also to manage your network bandwidth to ensure that phone calls, video calls and other time-sensitive traffic takes priority over web pages and file downloads. In such a configuration you would enable DHCP on the internal network, and the external network would obtain an IP address either statically or through the DHCP server in your DSL/Cable modem, depending on how your internet service provider configu [04:51] I don't think I changed anything [04:51] DarkMage26: Here goes. [04:52] papna> you got it, try hardy (which uses a different xorg) on another partition and see if it works [04:52] :( looks like im gonna switch over to 32bit ubuntu [04:52] I'm attempting to use the 3D game BZFlag on ubuntu. It gets about half the frame rate that it does running on Fedora, and around a fifth of the framedate that it does on windows. Any ideas what's going on? [04:52] ctmjr, I just pasted the answer your looking for...I think [04:52] twig11, make sure that nothing interrupts the process. [04:52] unless someone knows how to get 32 bit crossover source code to compile and work on x86_64 [04:52] ctmjr yes, I guess that is exactly correct [04:52] well that was bizarre [04:52] Rob235, all the cool people use 32-bit [04:52] why would it just start working like that? [04:52] smil3y, I also installed 64-bit, but I think they only offer a 32-bit driver. Are the ia32libs enough to save me here or ought I have a 64-bit OS? [04:52] is there really any benefit to 64 bit besides the ram issue [04:53] DarkMage26: yep [04:53] Erm, 32 [04:53] twig11, what is the bios you are using on that machine? [04:53] Can someone help me with the rythmbox player? The last.fm plugin seems to not be functioning right. [04:54] papna> sorry, got me, youve got way too many "ifs" there old card, new xorg, AND 64 bit, ive never messed with 64 bit, just not enough support for anything yet [04:54] Rob235: No point in running 32bit processor at every request when you have 64bit processor. That mean the remaining 32bit won't be used at all. It's like abandoning your 32bit. :( [04:54] time to install 32 bit ubunts [04:54] Cray2000, yeah, i'm well aware of the *type* of configuration, i'm pretty saavy with networking, i just thing LinuxMCE and/or wasting a computer is, well, just a waste for the application [04:54] Rob235, 64bit should run a little bit faster on 64bit-capable hardware [04:54] DarkMage26: 1.0.3 [04:54] Cray2000, b/c you can do the same thing with a dd-wrt flashed Linksys Router much cheaper and easily [04:55] If you need more info I'm not sure. [04:55] im gonna try 32 bit and see if i have fewer headaches, if so i'll stick with it for a while [04:55] twig11, no the name. [04:55] Cray2000: if i may ask do you use all the features of linuxmce or just media related (movies tv music) [04:55] Hey guys, I have firefox 3.5 installed with jaunty, I'm looking on the youtube.com/html5 page, but there is no video playing when I hit play. Any suggestions? [04:55] ive apt-get installed a package (a dictionary), but i cant find the contents anywhere. Is there a log i can check to find where the contents have been placed?

[04:57] twig11: you can tell who made the bios usually, when the system first boots up, you will see either award or award-pheonix or ami or something [04:57] ctmrj well for now just the media features, but I plan to expand it in the future to include alarm and lights [04:57] twig11, what is the system doing now? [04:57] pedestrianentran, you can open synaptin, find the package, click properties, and look under installed files [04:57] beilabs: unsure, sorry. Ill have a look there myself [04:58] twig11: Would you like to compare md5sum? I can do all those things and burn iso too. [04:58] unitytheory:ok ill try that [04:58] My sound doesn't work. [04:58] Hey, I'm trying to start the SSH server on Ubuntu 9.04, but i get the error "sudo: /etc/init.d/ssh: command not found" from the command "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start". Both the SSH client and SSH server are installed, as well as autossh [04:58] DarkMage26: I just powered it off and started it up again to check the bios, but I missed the name. [04:58] I just install Jaunty and my sound doesn't work.

[05:01] What's the command? [05:01] time for bed. peace all [05:01] Xantor: Meh. I don't know. openssh-server is usually sufficient. [05:01] smil3y, I know html5 ain't flash. [05:01] lol, #ubuntu is CRAZY [05:01] musikgoat|main, youtube.com/html5 <<<---- check it out [05:01] twig11, when the system rebooted it should have taken you to a GUI [05:01] Xantor: sudo /etc/init.d/sshd status [05:01] is there not a ubuntu hardware driver for ATI cards?

[05:03] DarkMage26: Just those two [05:03] EvRide> sure there is. if your card is supported itll show up under system>admin>hardware drivers [05:03] Xantor: Does 'ls' show that /etc/init.d/ssh exists? [05:03] sounds like you don't have ssh in your /etc/init.d directory [05:03] ya, thought so [05:03] new to ubuntu ho can i speed up my system [05:03] Is there supposed to be another one? [05:03] twig11, what the model again?

[05:05] twig11, one sec [05:06] DarkMage26: I'd feel a lot more confident if the instructions at http://www.linuxinsight.com/how-to-flash-motherboard-bios-from-linux-no-dos-windows-no-floppy-drive.html didn't assume so much and explained what was actually happening in more detail. [05:06] Ok, I will read there and see what I can come up with [05:06] Thanks for the help everyone. I maybe back asking for more. [05:06] wtf is double clicking the volume control [05:06] Yeah, that fixed it... such a basic error, I should have probably tried to re-install it first. [05:06] Thanks.

I used that to replace my sentence -- machine to bios. [05:09] what would be a cli command to empty the trash? [05:09] Babbleback: Google. It would be something like rm -rf /path/to/trash [05:10] kinja-sheep, was hoping for something nicer but that works [05:10] twig11: I can't get the bios from dell website? [05:10] hi. I just updated my 8.04 system, and rebooted, and now my system doesn't seem to boot. The last message it says is "checking battery state.."

[05:13] QuakeLive: in terminal, lsmod | grep alsa [05:13] TIM: does your cdrom drive work with other os [05:13] I am currently using an old desktop with Ubuntu Jaunty Jack and I do not think that I am every going back to WIndows. I like the suppor and the ease of use of Ubuntu. [05:13] yes it works on windows fine [05:13] no output [05:13] DarkMage26: DMC521-010104.EXE [05:13] TIM: What is the issue with it? [05:14] DarkMage26: Will it kill my computer? [05:14] QuakeLive: uh, then, are you using.. ossv4? [05:14] no idea [05:14] QuakeLive: lsmod | grep oss [05:14] I am also trying to learn how to install programs. I tried to install a program called Livestation which is suppoosed to work on Ubuntu/ deb and it did not seem to work at all. [05:14] twig11: Could you link the exe to me? [05:14] prints a lot [05:14] greenmanwitch, [05:14] Can someone tell my why ffmpeg keeps saying stuff like "[flv @ 0x7f8de736b040]Unsupported video codec (7)" when trying to convert a flv file. And why I can't get mplayer to read it either. (Ubuntu 8.10 x64). [05:14] Many times I try installing programs and a just get fragmented on my desktop.

Dell is acting out on me. [05:16] what the best way to back up the home folder? [05:16] it simply doesn't work at all [05:17] sl1ckx: cp -rf /home /mnt/otherdrive :) [05:17] twig11, the disc doesn't work due to missing info from the boot sector of the disc. It was not burnt right. [05:17] I mean it works like it opens and such, but it won't process a cd is in or that it's even there [05:17] kinja-sheep: as far as i know i have restricted stuff enabled, like my wireless and graphics card, ability to play all the "evil" codecs with Movie Player, etc. [05:17] sl1ckx: /home/user * [05:17] thanks === nick is now known as mandrig [05:17] i have multi user home folder [05:18] I'm running an onboard realtek sound card and it seems to have detected it properly but for somereason when i go to the Volume Control and select the Realtek Contoller and Adjust my Microphone Volume up it does not save it.

I just wish question askers would linger for at least a _little_ while for additional answers. [05:20] sl1ckx: cp -rfp /home /mnt/backupdrive [05:20] ok [05:20] tim, just type the persons name first and then begin your message [05:20] DarkMage26: Can you walk me through the instructions I'm trying to follow, so I could have feedback at each point?

Because that is the ONLY application in Ubuntu 8.10 willing to play it. If I have to recompile something from source I give up. [05:23] asfsafd: is there anything called osscore? [05:24] trying to boot to live cd and am getting "ttyx main process terminated with status 2) message. how do I solve it [05:24] lsmod | grep oss | grep osscore gives notthing [05:24] DarkMage26: it works for awhile after login, then freezes. [05:24] nothing* [05:24] freeksh0w86: I think you use ffmpeg [05:24] greenmanwitch: tried using ffmpeg and it gives the same errors for some odd reason [05:24] kinja-sheep: copy. paste. got it [05:25] asfsafd: well I'm not sure what's going on with your system. I think you should install ossv4, though. [05:25] how [05:25] Is there a server channel? I am having problems with 9.04 server and [05:25] am rather a noob.

[05:31] twig11, you downloaded the exe file from dell right? [05:31] DarkMage says I have to extract the exe first and i didn't do that. [05:31] asfsafd: I wouldn't bother then, honestly. [05:31] greenmanwitch: If you can't get to a console then your next step is probably to use a live CD and examine the log files to see what happened. [05:31] DarkMage26: yep [05:31] Sorry if this question has been asked a lot before but is a swedish repo down? [05:31] asfsafd: check if you have alsa installed. [05:31] twig11, do you have unzip?

If I "mount" a remote directory using SFTP, does it keep the connection live, or does it time out after a while, and reconnect when the directory is accessed again? [05:38] twig11: Okay. Then you have the corrupted boot disc or you have nothing in your cd tray. [05:38] I am having a problem with ubuntu 9.04 server. I tried in #ubuntu-server but there is [05:39] no one answering. [05:39] I'd like to mount a number of directories on login, but don't want connections being left open. [05:39] FrozenFire: I don't know but you could add "KeepAlive" etc. [05:39] does anybody have a answer to my question [05:40] FrozenFire: Your ssh session will automatically log out if it is idle. To keep the connection active (alive) add this to ~/.ssh/config or to /etc/ssh/ssh_config on the client. ServerAliveInterval 120 [05:40] kinja-sheep: The issue is that I _don't_ want the connection kept alive [05:41] FrozenFire: This will send "KeepAlive" every 2 minutes. [05:41] !ask | chrissy [05:41] chrissy: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [05:41] I want it to time out after a while, so I don't hold a connection open. [05:41] the problem is that I can see the fileshares with Win7 but the same username/password [05:41] ok [05:41] Having some problems with Yahoo accounts connecting through Pidgin, is anyone else having problems? [05:41] combination won't work in Xp. I seem to remember there was a glitch with Xp boxen [05:41] asfsafd: try to google the card and see if you can find something on it [05:41] hello [05:41] FrozenFire: You might want sshfs instead of nautilus? [05:41] why can [05:41] in Samba networks, but cannot remember. Anyone have any ideas? I want to [05:42] map a network drive on the Xp boxes to transfer files to the ubuntu server. [05:42] kinja-sheep: That's the second option. I was just rather sure that SSHFS keeps the connection live. [05:42] why can i not export a wireless network key key from seahorse? [05:42] where do i go for xubuntu infomation [05:42] [Bug 6892] alsa not seeing audigy 2 value sound card [05:42] DarkMage26: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ is terribly slow for some reason. [05:42] Hoss: 2.5.7 fixes the problem with Yahoo by implementing the new login mechanism [05:42] it's a feature, not a bug.... [05:42] chrissy: depends what you want to know? [05:42] Pulseaudio prob [05:43] twig11, it keeps timingout on me [05:43] my dvd wont play [05:43] Webcamwonder: apt-get update didnt pick it up. Is it not published yet? [05:43] twig11: throttled? [05:43] chrissy> try #xubuntu [05:43] !xubuntu [05:43] Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels [05:43] Can someone tell me how to fix this pulseaudio prob? [05:43] http://pastebin.com/d3eb599d [05:44] Hoss: Ubuntu's policy is not to push regular updates to packages which contain bug fixes. Only critical/bugfixes are pushed via the regular repositories [05:44] thank you [05:44] FrozenFire: http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh_config [05:44] Hoss: critical/security * [05:44] np [05:44] FrozenFire: Look under ServerAliveCountMax [05:44] FrozenFire: This way, you can set up time limit. [05:45] twig11: What's your situation? [05:45] anyone? [05:45] WebcamWonder: Oh, so there may be several peices of outdated software on my comp then, and would apt-get install Pidgin 2.5.7 do the trick? [05:45] Hoss: Nope. They are not available via the default repositories at all [05:46] twig11, packages.ubuntu.com for anything is not coming up for me. What about you? [05:46] WebcamWonder: So is there a Pidgin website then, and by installing this new version manually would I then have problems in the future installing via repository? [05:47] DarkMage26: Me either. [05:47] Anyone got an idea about my server problem? [05:47] Can someone tel me how to fix this pulse audio prob? [05:47] OregonJim: What's the issue? [05:47] http://pastebin.com/d3eb599d [05:47] DarkMage26: sorry got disconnected. [05:47] On boot, I get the message "MP-BIOS BUG: 8254 Timer not connected to IO-APCI" what does this mean? [05:48] Hoss: Since this is the official support channel, the use of external repository is not officially supported. But, if you wanted to, you could find some unsupported repositories for pidgin, or compile it yourself [05:48] twig11, you need that package to continue. [05:48] how do I burn a cd [05:48] Thanks. I have installed Ubuntu server 9.04 and Ebox with a 500g hard drive, [05:49] 2g memory, blah blah. I managed to get fileshares working from myu [05:49] !burn | asfsafd [05:49] asfsafd: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, brasero, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto [05:49] win 7 box, but my xp box will connect, but the uname/password does not work. [05:49] asfsafd: If you have .iso, you can right-click and burn. [05:49] The same one that works on th Win 7 box. [05:50] I seem to vaguely remember that there was a problem with Xp and samba shares, but I forget how to remedy it. [05:50] twig11, you might have it on your system already. try and type unzip in terminal [05:51] WebcamWonder: Interesting, was Pidgin ONCE available in the default repositories? [05:51] Hoss: Pidgin has always been available in the default repositories. Only the new versions aren't backported, unless they contain important security fixes [05:51] bash_23: type sudo adduser $USER pulse / sudo adduser $USER pulse-access / sudo adduser $USER pulse-rt $USER being you then reboot it is a permission issue with pulse [05:52] twig11_, you might have it on your system already. try and type unzip in terminal [05:52] DarkMage26: packages.ubuntu.com is timing out. [05:52] I can't get the package [05:52] twig11_, look up [05:52] OregonJim: http://screencasts.ubuntu.com/SAMBA_Filesharing ? [05:53] DarkMage26: looks like I've got it. [05:53] Are you telling me to watch a movie? Hah hah ok. But it works fine with the Win 7 box!! [05:53] WebcamWonder: Why doesnt the community feel like this crippled app deserves an update? [05:53] in 8.04 and 8.10 how does one disable /etc/motd from being overwritten or updated .. 9.04 has update-motd --disable [05:54] twig11_, good. we can continue now. [05:54] Hoss: B/c Ubuntu doesn't work with a rolling release model [05:54] DarkMage26: I'm ready. [05:54] I will go watch that movie thanks for now... [05:54] WebcamWonder: Not sure what that means, but if the update is out there how hard would it be to push it? [05:55] twig11_, type unzip then the file location and name with the .exe [05:55] twig11_: You want my ISO? [05:55] DarkMage26: Okay [05:55] Hoss: Considering that about 4 versions of Ubuntu are "supported" at any given time, it becomes quite a challenge to backport all the packages. However, I personally compile/use external repositories to keep my applications (that I care about) upto date [05:55] kinja-sheep: Will it work? [05:56] yowowo [05:56] twig11_: That, I can't guarantee. I followed the same guide on the linux. However, remember our ISOs md5sum were different for some reason. [05:56] anyone awake enough to help me out with an xgl problem? [05:56] nice [05:56] twig11_: But I followed everything, I only can think that should be okay. [05:57] twig11_, it will then be unziped to the same location. find the readme file with cat or less and open it [05:57] WebcamWonder: Gotcha, so what I need to do is find an exploit in Pidgin and force the community to address this serious security issue and inherently obtain a working product. [05:57] DarkMage26: what do you think of kinja-sheep's suggestion? [05:58] hello, I'm trying to use dial up to go online from another computer - how do I do it? [05:58] Hoss: how is it crippled, mine works fine [05:58] twig11_, I have never herd of a bios flash for dell in an iso file. They all come in an exe. [05:58] Hoss: I'm using Pidgin repos. Working fine. [05:59] Hoss: Or, compile yourself/get an external repository that publishes regular updates to Pidgin (Pidgin Developers personally offer a PPA for all the supported Ubuntu versions) [05:59] Cosmo1: From what I have been told, the mechanics for logging in with Yahoo accounts have changed and all my yahoo accounts are suck in a "connecting" state. [06:00] Hoss: every linux distro is experiencing that, btw, follow WebcamWonder's advice, add the pidgin ppa [06:00] DarkMage26: the instructions here http://www.linuxinsight.com/how-to-flash-motherboard-bios-from-linux-no-dos-windows-no-floppy-drive.html are for how to make an iso file that includes the bios flash, isn't it? [06:00] oh your right I just noticed it [06:00] will do, thanks all. [06:00] DarkMage26, twig11_: exes are for windows. By doing iso, we're running off disc and run msdos (ie windows-related) [06:00] Hoss: (not every, but f10 is, among a couple others) [06:00] Hoss: http://www.pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/ [06:00] kinja-sheep: That's what i understood we were doing. [06:01] twig11_: Check your PM -- I'm linking you the ISO. [06:02] hi all [06:03] I've got an intel 5100 abgn card, and I'm getting a maximum connection of 60Mbit, even with very high link quality. Any idea why this would be? [06:04] kinja-sheep: I almost never use irc, I'm using Colloquy as my irc client, and I can't figure out how to check private messages. I heard an alert sound that must have been a private message but I don't know how to find it. [06:05] twig11_: Get online on the computer and download the ISO. [06:05] Hoss: it may also be because ubuntu is probably going to change to Empathy rather than Pidgin as the default IM [06:05] twig11_, you made the iso from the files in the exe downloaded from dell? [06:06] Hi... want to ask about wget. How to fully download a website - including a link to its subdomain / cname structures but not other external links ? [06:06] kinja-sheep: I don't know how to see your link in this client. Sorry. [06:07] * d0wn3r is away [#!#] idle%away [#!#] messages will be eaten.. [01:07AM] [06:07] !yahoo | Cosmo1 [06:07] Cosmo1: 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. [06:08] Hmmm... ok, so,I booted into recovery mode and it works. I fixed my broken packages. I then dropped into root shell and checked X to see ifthat was what wasn't booting [06:08] startx failed, saying no screens were configured [06:08] !netsplit [06:08] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit === etoipi is now known as etotheipi [06:09] twig11_: Use a computer. Download the ISO I made. Burn it using "cdrecord -v bootcd.iso" with a blank disc. [06:09] wtf [06:09] lol "relax and enjoy the show" [06:09] twig11_: Then we'll compare md5sum. Then that's it. :) [06:09] hi [06:09] sorry I'm back [06:09] vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf confirms that my xorg is not correctly configured. So I did X -configure and had the same problem as when I try to boot normally. Screen goes black, monitor says no signal, can't switch to another tty to get out of it [06:09] Clever: a bot that recognizes a split and explains for the masses. [06:09] greenmanwitch: /etc/init.d/gdm start ? [06:10] musikgoat|main: why would I do that..? :S [06:10] greenmanwitch: or k or x for kubuntu/xubuntu [06:10] DarkMage26: I followed the directions I linked to before. I barely knew what I was doing. I followed the directions for mounting and creating a floppy disc image and copying the exe file into it. I didn't get any feedback in terminal, so I assumed it had worked. [06:10] musikgoat|main: yes, but why? [06:10] musikgoat|main: my X isn't working, I don't need to go into a login manager. I need X to work. [06:11] kinja-sheep: did you create an iso? if so, you'll have to put the link here. I can't see private messages. [06:11] twig11_, this is a little different but it will make an iso that we will burn soon. [06:11] DarkMage26: I got an error when I ran unzip. [06:11] twig11_, what error? [06:11] greenmanwitch, try to have it automagically configured by doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg [06:12] twig11_: I can't. I don't want everybody leeching off on my laptop. [06:12] twig11_: You can't burn ISO on your iPhone anyway. [06:13] greenmanwitch, also you can try to it fixed while grub is loading press ESC and goto recovery mode.. Fix X [06:13] bastidrazor: yeah, but recovery mode's fix x doesn't seem to work [06:13] q [06:14] exit [06:14] quit [06:14] what's with this dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg? I don't get it. Shouldn't X -configure do it? === kipas_angin is now known as myphnix [06:14] pkundu, try /part [06:14] :P [06:14] greenmanwitch, i agree, it hasn't fixed things when my ati driver didn't do well.. the dpkg-reconfigure will give you default drivers and get you back into X [06:14] greenmanwitch, what OS are you using?

[06:20] Hey guys, is this the right place to ask a question? [06:20] yes [06:20] twig_11: private messages are on the same right panel where the #ubuntu channel and others are... [06:20] Well, I'm trying to copy over all my files from a laptop to a desktop, and I'm having trouble getting it to boot. Would anyone be able to help? [06:21] twig11_: On where? [06:21] Jacobian_, what is the error? [06:21] bastidrazor: this is really weird. I put Driver "vesa" in my xorg.conf and it locks up my system on a black screen. If I don't have that line, xorg just fails to start saying something about radeon and no screens being configured [06:21] O.0 [06:22] Jacobian: you just copy files and you want boot desktop? [06:22] twig11_: Hey. Right-click on my nickname and "send private message" [06:22] Well, I've created the new filesystem on the desktop, and I've successfully copied over my files.

[06:24] Jacobian: try install a new system on desktop and copy here files you need [06:25] twig11_: Do the md5sum. [06:25] Gevz: That's what I think too. This was an empty hard drive on the desktop. I've been trying to get the grub installed. But I'm not able to chroot, which was a step in installing grub. [06:25] et [06:25] Jacobian: aa... trouble in grub? [06:25] kinja-sheep, did you extract the files from the exe? [06:25] Gevz: So I've tried installing grub an alternative way, by specifying the root-directory. Now when I reboot, I get a grub> prompt. I'm not able to proceed from there. [06:26] DarkMage26: No. [06:26] kinja-sheep, what files are in the iso? === joshthecoder is now known as joshthecoder_afk [06:27] DarkMage26: http://www.linuxinsight.com/how-to-flash-motherboard-bios-from-linux-no-dos-windows-no-floppy-drive.html [06:27] Gevz: I think so. Unless there are other changes I need to make? So far, my filesystem on the desktop is an exact copy of my working filesystem from the laptop, but I've updated my fstab with the new vol-id, and I've updated the grub menu list with new volume ids as well. I've recreated the mtab. Otherwise, those are the only changes I've made. [06:28] Jacobian: do you have liveCD? [06:28] Gevz: Yes. I'm using the Ubuntu 9.04 live CD. [06:29] kinja-sheep, I am looking at a page from ubuntu particularly and it has a step to use only a few files from the exe and not all of it.

[06:32] kinja-sheep, the exe from dell is meant to be run in windows and will create a boot disc with only a few needed files. The way you did it all that is in the iso is a cab file and you can't boot to it. [06:33] DarkMage26: Link ? [06:33] Jacobian_> i put it on my blog so i never forget lol, happens to meall the time [06:33] How do I change this to UK english?: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 [06:33] twig11_, can you send me the exe from dell?

[06:35] Yes, my programs keep telling me that my correct English spellings are wrong. [06:35] smil3y: Okay, I've actually done this. I was able to install grub to my MBR; at least, these commands succeeded. Is there anything else you've ever had to do? [06:35] Hello, this error deals with ubuntu and Windows. I am using Vista Home Premium SP1, and I have a serious error in which Windows will not boot to the login screen. According to many sites, this Windows error is only able to be fixed by doing a factory reset. I have Ubuntu 8.10 as well which returns an error but if I were to fix my Ubuntu, could I possibly fix my Windows in the process? [06:35] Tetracomm, and, i doubt that programmers are putting translations for the UK and US in the same package... unless they have a "Darn it, the system crashed" and "Bollocks! the system crashed" [06:35] Jacobian_, have you got the menu.lst in the correct location? [06:35] Tetracomm, that would be pretty funny... [06:36] Ubuntu doesnt have a lot of features [06:36] mechdav: Yes, I believe so. However, I'm using a separate /boot partition. [06:36] its only good if you have the internet and download all the add ons [06:36] How do I change it to UK English. [06:37] NO ONE can survive without Windows [06:37] Jacobian_> sorry. got me, ive never had a problem following those instructions exactly [06:37] mechdav: The laptop boots, and I haven't changed anything for the desktop, except that I'm trying to get the grub to boot, and I've updated my volume ids in the fstab and menu.lst. I've recreated the mtab as well. [06:37] I can, CAZ_au. [06:37] CAZ_au, It is a lot better than windows for included software [06:37] its imposible [06:37] smil3y: Well, thank you anyway :) [06:37] It is better than Windows overall. [06:38] CAZ_au, please stop trolling, this is a Ubuntu support channel [06:38] CAZ_au> i havent used windows in over 10 years how do you explain that [06:38] You cant afford it [06:39] Tetracomm, seriously, though, just go to System -> Administration -> Language Preferences...

Only complicted linux need suport [06:40] Ubuntu does not give any trouble, so it needs less support. [06:40] i hate it [06:40] what about all the windows only programs you cant live without [06:40] Wine ^ [06:41] CAZ_au> ignore the troll and it will go awaylol [06:41] would that be, like, conficker?

[06:45] hi [06:46] ubottu: i get connection refused [06:46] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [06:46] twig11_, what does the left pane look like in your client? [06:46] try windows, MUHAHAHAHAHA [06:46] yeah, we know. Linux has nothing to match the power of disk defragmenter, McAfee, the memory suction of Nortons, the contagiousness of - well, you name it, and we don't have to buy the latest and greatest machines just to see the BSOD. But, don't worry about us, we're coping OK so far. [06:46] startx is giving me: radeon: no detected devices found \n radeon: no valid modes \n screens found but none have a usable configuration [06:47] greenman: what driver are you using? [06:47] pr0ton> try cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com [06:47] DarkMage26: if you're wondering if I can get private messages, yeah I figured it out. [06:47] I can see yours. [06:47] pr0ton> using it right now [06:47] but I couldn't tell how long ago it was. [06:47] pr0ton i am looking it up for u [06:47] coffeeaddict22: vesa, I think. I just used dpkg-reconfigure to config my xord [06:47] can't seem to come across links but if you upgrade it will patch it [06:48] cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com [06:48] working [06:48] for today anyway [06:48] http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/ [06:48] might be worth doing the reboot -> choose recovery console -> Recover my Graphics thing. [06:48] greenmanwitch: what is your ubuntu version? [06:48] it is kind of working [06:48] atleast i got connectd [06:49] will keep updated [06:49] use link i sent [06:49] troopperi: 8.10, hopefully. All of these problems happened after upgrading 8.04 > 8.10, but at the end it crashed so I powered off and now I dont' know what's going on [06:49] pr0ton: cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com works for me. [06:49] i cant see anybody in chat [06:49] Try that. [06:49] can anyone help me install a screencam software such as hypercam/camistia on ubuntu linux? [06:49] it will let you install 2.5.7 [06:49] troopperi: cat /etc/issue says 8.10 [06:50] maybe ppl arent online ;) [06:50] pr0ton> if you start messing with outside debs yiur going to lose updates [06:50] i hvnt modded / make pidgin [06:50] greenmanwitch: if you can paste xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntu.com [06:51] troopperi: I don't think it's possible.. but it's really generic.. just what dpkg-reconfigure does.. [06:51] thanks all it works :) [06:51] Double_Kill2: Are there any screencam programs in the Add/Remove Software? [06:51] ppl arent online it seems [06:51] Jacobian_, I will look [06:51] Double_Kill2: There are more programs in Synaptic, if you know in advance what you'll need. [06:51] Jacobian_, i'm not sure if there is any out there for linux [06:52] Jacobian_, i was hoping someone in here would know [06:52] Double_Kill2: nonsense [06:52] Double_Kill2: So what will the screencam do? It's not a webcam, is it? Is it a screen recorder? [06:52] Double_Kill2: Perhaps we can find what you need [06:52] Jacobian_, yes, such as hypercam [06:52] Jacobian_, it records your screen into a video format [06:52] Double_Kill2: Mmm, I see [06:52] Double_Kill2: I know I've seen a good program for this [06:53] greenmanwitch: have you editet your xorg.conf, change driver "ati" to "vesa"? and restart, if that help? [06:53] snakdoc: Thatks for that link for Pidgin [06:53] is yahoo trying to update (brick) something on their servers ? [06:53] man i do fdisk --list but it still doesn't show parition numbers :/ [06:53] troopperi: yeah, it doesn't even have a Driver line, but I'm guessing it's using vesa by default [06:53] troopperi: not ati [06:53] you're having trouble with yahoo too? [06:53] not a problem think yahoo changed protocol [06:53] Double_Kill2: I'm trying to find it [06:54] Jacobian_, i found this one called Xvidcap. but all the downloads are in i386 architechture [06:54] maybe, Im not able to connect to it through pidgin anymore, Im not sure why [06:54] Jacobian_, i need the lower one [06:54] Jacobian_, i am running a 32 bit OS [06:54] Double_Kill2: You need this for x86, 32 bit? Is that right? [06:55] does anyone have any thoughts on Java/ASP.Net/PHP(neko or plain) in terms of speed and server and power costs for a large website? [06:55] Jacobian_, 32bit [06:55] anyone run raid 10 and if so is there a noticable speed diffrence ? [06:55] greenmanwitch: maybe your xorg.conf file not working, do you have backup file like xorg.conf.old or something like that... [06:55] Hi. Does anyone know how to get the trash can to show up on the right panel or the top bar on 9.04 Netbook Remix? [06:55] troopperi: yeah, ok, I do but it fails [06:56] greenmanwitch: ok [06:56] troopperi: hey, I added a Driver "vesa" line and it makes my computer lock up hard in a black screen :S [06:56] Double_Kill2: Well, here is something: http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Apps/screen-capture.html Are any of these similar to what you need? [06:56] Jacobian_, i will look thank you [06:56] can you use mount command to mount .iso ? [06:56] snakdoc: yes [06:57] aquachica: You can add a Trash can to the panel. You can right click on the panel and add a new item. [06:57] can i see example ? [06:57] aquachica: In the list of panel applications, you should see a Trash can. [06:57] Jacobian_, not that i can see [06:57] snakdoc: google it :) [06:57] :) thanks [06:57] snakdoc, install gmount [06:58] snakdoc: mount -o loop -t iso9660 file.iso /mnt/test [06:58] btw is there any room for somebody good at algorithms in ubuntu developer community? [06:58] EvRide: ewww, no way [06:58] On the top bar, it only gives me the option to "Remove" or "Move". The right panel does not display any type of menu. [06:58] Jacobian_, something like this but in a 32bit format. http://xvidcap.sourceforge.net/#xvidcap_live: [06:58] help please! [06:58] greenmanwitch: do you have internet connection on your ubuntu pc [06:58] EvRide: GUIs are not needed for EVERYTHING! [06:58] why not? [06:58] it's handy for me [06:58] troopperi: I can get one, I suppose. Maybe. [06:58] greenmanwitch thanks [06:59] EvRide: ok, sure, but I'm not going to encourage that :P [06:59] What does this command do: mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /root -o force [06:59] um, why? [06:59] greenmanwitch, snakdoc Usually the mount -o loop is good enough without the -t iso9660 [06:59] aquachica: That's the right place then. You should be able to add a new panel item somewhere near there. I'm running Xubuntu, so my menus are slightly different, or I would tell you exactly. However, you're in the right area! I've done this before on Ubuntu. [06:59] EvRide: it's silly [07:00] well it's easier than opening up a command prompt and typing in a command you forget easily [07:00] EvRide: well at some stage you, and he, will need to learn linux [07:00] Phoenix847, it will mount the ntfs volume /dev/sda1 on /root and it will force it, not recommended to mount on /root directory [07:00] hey guys i want to share a folder with samba but i dont have permission so how do i do this from the terminal? [07:00] I am just surprised that the trash can was not added in the Remix version of the desktop. When I do switch back to the standard Ubuntu desktop, it provides it. [07:00] EvRide: so I recommend he learns the real way rather than the ubuntu way [07:00] We are not looking for easy ways [07:00] I'm learning it, but i don't think there should be a learning curve to Operating systems [07:00] Phoenix847, it is better to mount a volume on /mnt [07:01] operating systems should be easy to use, have an easy way to get everything done without the need for a command prompt [07:01] mechdave, I have an error with my Windows Vista as well. I believe sda1 is the hard drive of my Vista. Would that command clear my hard drive? [07:01] EvRide: ok, that's your opinion, but take it from somebody who has been using linux for a few years. The only way to learn it is if you push yourself and just start learning. don't opt for the easy way out [07:01] EvRide: memorising one simple command really isn't that hard [07:01] aquachica: Ah, I see. The remix version must be a little different. Perhaps someone in Google has done this? I'm sure there is a way. [07:02] yes, but when you have to memorize dozens of others it becomes a pain [07:02] EvRide: well if you don't like it, don't use the os. Sorry. This is just how it works. [07:02] uh yah my questions real simple whats the name of the file browser application so i can start it from the terminal with sudo su [07:02] ! [07:02] maan!!!!! wow new drivers xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.8 work really really good!!!!! why dont the developers make them an update for jaunty???? i found them on some web page arround...!! [07:02] Thisdude: nautilus? [07:02] well I like Ubuntu, but it's such a pain to get started in [07:02] Phoenix847, no it would just force sda1 to be mounted on your system, it is much better to boot vista if possible and mount the volume in that for a start, if you can't start vista you could do it [07:03] EvRide: yeah, I know. Trust me, I know. You have no other options, though. [07:03] EvRide: eventually it'll all become second nature [07:03] mechdave, may I pm you about my errors please? I'll pastebin the error and things. [07:03] uh, ya in that instance he does [07:03] It would be nice in the next version to have the trash can as a default on the right side panel for the netbook version. [07:03] he can use gmount iso [07:03] EvRide: in the long term, he doesn't. [07:03] Phoenix847, go ahead [07:03] Thank you. [07:03] EvRide: guis are not always there to hold his hand. They're less efficient, anyway. [07:03] and greenmanwitch is right command line is faster by far than using gui [07:04] sometimes GUIs are the easier and quicker way to do things [07:04] Phoenix847, it may be easier in here as anyone else who has any ideas will chip in as well [07:04] I mean opening up the command prompt and typing something in would take much longer [07:04] EvRide: than starting gmount? no. [07:04] make shortcut key for it [07:04] Hey guys? Has anyone tried to copy over a complete system, including their /, /boot, /home, ..., over to a new system, with a brand new filesystem just created with empty filesystems? My files are copied over all right. But I'm having trouble getting grub to boot the new system. [07:05] EvRide, I use the command line extensively, I find it much quicker than graphics [07:05] greenmanwitch: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=966032 if this same problem? [07:05] well you aren't a typical Ubuntu noob [07:05] EvRide: whom? [07:05] I figured it out. You have to unlock the panel, pull it out so that there is enough blank space, right click there, and add the Trash Can short cut. [07:05] mechdave, and you [07:05] EvRide, When I started out I bought a book about UNIX as I didn't have the internet back then [07:05] aquachica: Ah, excellent! [07:05] exactly [07:05] operating systems shouldn't require that [07:05] aquachica: Very smart :) [07:06] operating systems should be pretty much pick up, install and go [07:06] err download install and go [07:06] Jacobian_: there are usually some edits you need, even if you copy everything. The uuids will be different, and any references to devices may have to be updated in the new copy. Usually that means editing /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab [07:06] if u think that don't ever compile your own app [07:07] I've compiled many of my own apps [07:07] and it's sad that I've had to do that [07:07] losher: Thank you! Are there any other files that need to be edited? [07:07] EvRide, Why not? UNIX has been around since the 70's and it is one of the most powerful OS's out there. Unfortunately windows has made people lazy in the OS arena [07:07] its a good thing cause you can get support for what you want [07:07] Thank you. [07:07] mechdave > and dumb [07:07] :) [07:08] I really do like Ubuntu. I am very close to letting go of Windows completely. [07:08] ;) [07:08] EvRide: yeah, ok, ok. You can think what you want. The fact is, handholding gets in the way of work [07:08] Jacobian_: off-hand no, those are the big two important ones to get the thing to boot. Do you know what to change? [07:08] EvRide: once you understand your system, you don't want it to be all easy and simple [07:08] pt1989, No not dumb, just ignorant of different ways of doing things. [07:08] nah, actually doing all this stupid command typing is getting in the way of work [07:08] EvRide: an OS that is powerful and does high-end tasks, unobtrusively, requires that you learn [07:08] losher: I've updated my volume ids in: /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab These are correct now, but when I try to boot up, I'm getting a grub> prompt. I've tried to specify my kernel image, to see if I could boot that way, but the image was not found. The two things that might be complicating this are: I'm using a separate /boot partition. And my filesystems are ext4. I had to download the latest Ubuntu live CD in order to mount my [07:08] files [07:08] EvRide, Lol [07:09] EvRide: because you don't understand it [07:09] EvRide: mechdave and I do [07:09] man i cant find the page where the new xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.8 repos where, can someone help me out? [07:09] Evride: you're right on one level, but only for the people who aren't interested in the why, only in the how; it also leads to the Windows mentality where it's supposed to work no matter how bad you treat it, and there's only One Right program. [07:09] cool, you too can go and get off on typing commands all day [07:09] EvRide: now stop arguing. This will make sense to you in time. Just shut up and realise that sometimes more experienced users just know :) [07:10] losher: I don't know what else needs to be done. I've updated my volume ids, and I've recreated my mtab. That's all. There must be something I've missed. [07:10] troopperi: seems to apply, but the answers are really obvious things I've already tried [07:10] losher: Perhaps something with grub? [07:10] We use the same mentality teaching our kids. It's called kindergarten. [07:10] operating systems are there to do work on, not to do waste hours trying to get it to work [07:10] No, that's one of the things and OS does. [07:10] EvRide, You are doing alright, you have managed to install Ubuntu and find your way here, in the least that shows more commitment than the average windows user :) [07:11] ya, I've but for instance I had Mono not working for the past month [07:11] Jacobian_: I don't have much experience with ext4 as it's so new. When you get a boot prompt, type: find /boot/grub/stage1 and tell me what it says [07:11] losher: Thanks. I'll try it now. [07:11] because of different parts of it not being installed or not updated to a certain version [07:11] finally got it working with help from some of the mono dudez [07:12] i was trying to install 2.4 on 9.4 fyi [07:12] losher: Okay, I've rebooted into the live CD. I'm about to start grub and look for the stage1. [07:12] i mean mono 2.4 on ubuntu 9.4 [07:12] EvRide, True, I do most of my development on Ubuntu, once I have it up and running it is rock solid and doesn't crash just because I open a folder (unlike XP pro) :( [07:12] Jacobian_: i'll be back in 5 minutes [07:12] I have never had a problem with XP crashing [07:12] or getting a virus [07:12] losher: Okay, I've entered: find /grub/stage1 (because I have a separate partition) [07:13] Hey guys does Ubuntu 9.04 have a default autocomplete button? Im trying to use gnome-do with docky and its cool but like when i start to type in something like "define" for the gnome dictionary the official website says to press tab for autocomplete of the word define after you press the first 3-4 letters and then press tab and then type in the word to look up. Anyone know if thats right? [07:13] altho my parents have [07:13] Phoenix847, where re you mate? I am waiting for your pastebin :) [07:13] losher: And the result is: (hd0,0) [07:13] losher: That's right, tha'ts where my boot partition is [07:13] Tab dont work for me. [07:13] Good evening every one [07:13] I am a vista user switching to Ubuntu [07:13] EvRide> lol, wow, are you a comedian? xp never crashing? [07:13] I neeed a iTunes compatible app [07:14] any sugestions> [07:14] ? [07:14] if you are know what you are doing XP is not a problem [07:14] thanks greenmanwitch all i need was the -o loop [07:14] does anyone use any sort of media center if so what? [07:14] KimJognIl: iTunes compatible? You mean compatible with an iPod, or the iTunes store? [07:14] Tab should work. Have you checked your keyboard settings (System/Preferences/Keyboard) [07:14] theflyingfool: mythbuntu [07:14] XP is my favorite operating system of all [07:14] EvRide, Same with Ubuntu ;) [07:15] is it posible to upgrade to the 64bit verhsion of ubuntu with out reinstalling? [07:15] theflyingfool> mythtv, boxee, xbmc all excellent [07:15] yes, but I don't need to know dozens of commands to get XP to work [07:15] Drikan, no [07:15] !mythtv | theflyingfool [07:15] Drikan> no [07:15] theflyingfool: mythtv is a TV framework for Linux - Instructions for using with Ubuntu at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV - For discussion and specific support, try #ubuntu-mythtv [07:15] and I don't have version problems with software, or pieces of a software being installed [07:15] smil3y: i've checked out xbmc something about it just doesn't work for me but i'll check out boxee [07:15] hello folks [07:15] hello varun [07:16] !hello [07:16] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [07:16] theflyingfool> youll love it [07:16] plus Adobe software works in XP [07:16] EvRide: please stay on topic. [07:16] EvRide: even in windows command line is faster [07:16] you cant just down load the latest kernal and complile it for 64bit? [07:16] EvRide: if you know what you are doing Linux is not a problem [07:16] EvRide: please shut up now. You're getting really annoying. [07:16] lol [07:16] or do i need to change the file system as well [07:16] I tried this earlier in the morning but did not get an answer so am going to try again.The problem is that I had installed epsxe in ubntu intrepid and it was working fine until now [07:16] Drikan, what about every 32 bit app you have. so no. [07:17] Drikan, You should be able to download the x64 deb and install it and reboot into it [07:17] boxee looks really good [07:17] greenmanwitch, you think you aren't annoying as well, thing is commands are much harder to remember than going through a GUI [07:17] May anyone help me with this ubuntu/Vista error. The error (cause) and screen I see is here, http://pastebin.com/f23afb8b2 [07:17] but now I cannot get the memory card to change even though the memcard select shows that it has [07:17] mechdave, great way to break a system [07:17] anyone got any clues [07:17] EvRide: look up ip address on your pc [07:17] Hey guys, is it true that when I have an installed Ubuntu, I can find more device drivers on the other computers on the network than when I just use a boot-CD version? [07:18] whats that 5 clicks ? [07:18] ya, what about it? [07:18] the thing that sucks about boxee theflyingfool is that the hulu thing it has in it is only american [07:18] also can be done in one command [07:18] 32bit apps should run in 64bit enviroment or would they need to run under an emulater? [07:18] snakdoc, what did you want? [07:18] I know my IP address [07:18] Jacobian_: are you there? [07:18] thats all greenmanwitch is trying to say [07:18] varun: I'm sorry varun, I have no idea. Have you had any luck with Google? Perhaps someone else has had a similar experience. [07:18] losher: Yes, I'm here. Welcome back. [07:19] flightcrank> you can use vpn's with it though, and theres plenty of other options/apps for web content besides hulu [07:19] well it's easier to remember through a GUI [07:19] EvRide: yes, but it's _quicker_ to do through a CLI [07:19] how many programmers here? [07:19] flightcrank> you can thank hulu/content providers for hulu only being avail in the usa, got nothing to do with boxee [07:19] EvRide: so, eventually, you suck it up and you do it through the CLI [07:19] EvRide, get over it [07:20] Jacobian_: grub found stage1 at (hd0,0) i.e. first disk, first partition. Is that the original or the copy? [07:20] Phoenix847, Ok first of all you need to boot into a live disk on that paticular computer [07:20] losher: This is the copy [07:20] I managed to get the printer driver that was shared on the other (Windows)system when I installed Ubuntu 9.10, but I can't seem to do it here if I use a boot disc on this one. [07:20] Jacobian_: are you sure. Where is the original? Why didn't it find the original also? [07:21] In order to use a printer that's shared on the other computer, what must I do? My printer is a Lexmark Z600 [07:21] !cups | bobbyyu [07:21] bobbyyu: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows [07:21] losher: I suppose what I mean is: I ran the command on the desktop, where I've copied the files. The desktop is an almost identical copy of the laptop. Except that I've updated the volume ids. [07:21] lol. you guys aren't understanding my whole point. I always hear about Linux dudez trying to convert people to Linux and saying that it's a shame Microsoft has such a large market share, but it's always going to be that way until a Linux distro can be modified and changed almost completely through the GUI with very little use of a console [07:21] pt1989, what are you trying to do? [07:22] rdw200169: didnt get u [07:22] good night~ [07:22] Do you know if theres any way I'll be able to save my Vista in the process of fixing my ubuntu, mechdave? I do not want to backup all my data to do a factory restore. [07:22] Jacobian_: ok, makes more sense. I thought perhaps you'd copied one hard drive to another on the same PC. [07:22] am trying to google it but I am not sure what to type or look for sometimes in google [07:22] !troll | EvRide [07:22] EvRide: trolling / trollish behaviour is behaviour that is considered annoying by other channel users, this includes going offtopic, asking the same question time and again getting answered and not acknowledging the answer, and these are not the only ways behaviour can be considered trolling, please see /msg ubottu guidelines - if this applies to you, you may find yourself outside the channel [07:22] pt1989, well, i know how to program, but there are lots of languages, and i can't do them all, and neither can most people ;) [07:22] how am I trolling? [07:22] i know C++ and java very well ;) [07:22] losher: Ah, I see. No, I'm trying to transfer a perfect copy of my laptop to a new machine. [07:22] EvRide: it can... gmount, etc. But, most people on freenode use computers daily, and want efficiency, not handholding [07:23] i want to know how i can help [07:23] but i'm only good at algorithms [07:23] EvRide: so here I explain how to do it the command line way [07:23] not good at development [07:23] On boot, I get the message "MP-BIOS BUG: 8254 Timer not connected to IO-APCI" what does this mean? [07:23] Phoenix847, I have no idea, I have never used vista [07:23] EvRide: that's already the case. The gui provides all that capability. The problem is that there is so much capability one must give up to go gui-only. [07:23] how many of you know about Topcoder, SPOJ, SGU ? [07:23] ok, greenmanwitch, i guess I understand that thinking [07:23] EvRide: complain all you want, I don't care. Stick with your gmount and your newbie friendly stuff. But here, the computer geeks want to get work done. Ok? End of debate. [07:23] Well, at least theres more support here than anywhere else =/ [07:23] think i ask for command also [07:23] Jacobian_: next step, type: root (hd0,0) (the space is important) [07:23] losher: I've followed online tutorials for upgrading grub, since I'll need it on the new machine. It seems to have completed successfully, but when I boot, I'm greeting with a boot> prompt. And I can't seem to locate my kernel image even if I try manually. My /boot partition is separate. [07:24] Phoenix847, All you can do is force the mount and then umount the partition and then reboot and see if vista works [07:24] losher: Okay, I'll try that now. [07:24] EvRide: you're being a troll because you're discussing a point that's been gone over for many millenia :P [07:24] Where would I boot this to, since you said root would not be good. mtd? [07:24] losher: No, wait. Should that be: root (hd0,1) ? [07:24] bastid_raZor, I was under the impression that x86 programs work on a x64 kernel [07:24] lol. maybe because people can never agree on it and we should finally find a way to compromise [07:24] maybe a guide to do everything through the GUI somewhere on the internetz [07:24] losher: My root partition is at sda2. boot: sda1, home: sda4, swap: sda3 [07:25] mechdave, some do, but not all. [07:25] EvRide: WE DON'T need a compromise [07:25] EvRide: compromise would mean less efficiency for us [07:25] Phoenix847, boot the live disk from your cdrom drive and then mount the hard drive on /mnt [07:25] EvRide: you do what you want, I'll do what I want [07:26] http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/ EvRide [07:26] Jacobian_: we need to check the device map. What's in /boot/grub/device.map ? [07:26] EvRide: please drop it. No need to try to force gui handcuffs on people, ok? [07:26] alright greenmanwitch, I got a question for you, how many times did you try ubuntu until you finally installed it as the sole OS on your computer? [07:26] When I do install the printer, where in the filesystem do the drivers go? [07:26] losher: Okay, checking now. [07:26] EvRide> try and convince an admin to use a gui to configure a mailserver, postfix,dovecot, etc, youll be laughed offthe planet lo. it jut isnt done, there ARE no guis and never will be. [07:26] EvRide, please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic [07:27] EvRide, write the GUI guide and be happy! could we move on please! [07:27] smil3y, LOL, now that would be an achievement! [07:27] k, well greenmanwitch will you follow me there? [07:27] EvRide, i never try before [07:28] ok smiley, are you in offtopic? [07:28] losher: Sorry for the wait. [07:28] oh, sry, was not for me [07:28] ah, well I think I've only cleared off that cd. I guess theres only one thing to do and thats to wait until tomorrow so I can burn another cd for it. [07:28] EvRide> nope i only speak "on topic" lol [07:29] losher: Here are the contents of my boot/grub/device.map on the desktop: [07:29] losher: (hd0) /dev/sda [07:29] How can i remove a directory? rm gives me an error [07:29] sudo rm -r [07:29] ty [07:29] aurilliance> rm -r [07:29] lol. well then, I don't like your argument, because the people configuring a mailserver in ubuntu will probably be advanced users anyways [07:29] aurilliance, what directory are you trying to delete? [07:29] aurilliance> stands for recursive [07:29] .blender in ~/ home [07:29] ie, ~/.blender [07:30] rm -r ~./blender [07:30] aurilliance, try rm -rv .blender [07:30] Jacobian_: that looks correct. So I agree, try root (hd0, 1) [07:30] aurilliance: Also, "man rm" (without quotes) will give you more options [07:30] thanks for the help, all!!! [07:30] it's gone now :P [07:30] losher: All right, I'm trying that now, from within the live CD, after starting grub. [07:31] aurilliance, if you type "man rm" (without quotes) in the terminal that will give you all options and possibly a couple of examples [07:31] losher: All right. [07:31] aurilliance, np [07:32] losher: Now if I type: "find /grub/stage1" the result is: (hd0,0) [07:32] losher: That's where my boot partition is (/dev/sda1). [07:32] Jacobian_: now do setup(hd0) which will put grub's mbr into the first sector of the first partition === raygn2 is now known as raygn [07:33] losher: Okay, "setup (hd0)" gives me: Checking if "/boot/grub/stag1" exists... no [07:33] Where do the device drivers (PPD) go when you install a printer in Jaunty?

[07:40] losher: When I follow the instructions here, I'm not able to complete the chroot: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Chroot_from_a_livecd [07:41] Jacobian_: what happens when you try to chroot [07:41] losher: When I try to chroot, "chroot /mnt/root" I get the result: "chroot: cannot run command '/bin/bash': No such file or directory" [07:42] losher: I can see the bin/bash here: "ls /mnt/root/bin/bash" [07:42] losher: I also have all the libraries installed. This is a working system on the laptop... [07:43] i can confirm, for those who has and intel gma, installing kernel 2.6.30 (kernel.ubuntu.com) and xserver-xorg-video-intel ver 2.8 (wiki.ubuntu.com) everything works PERFECT!! [07:44] Jacobian_: you mean when you "chroot /mnt/root"? What about "chroot /mnt/root /bin/bash" [07:45] losher: Identical result. [07:45] anyone not getting any help? let me know if I can help. [07:45] Jacobian_: and finally, "chroot /mnt/root /mnt/root/bin/bash" [07:45] losher: Heh [07:45] hello DarkMage26 my mahjongg - game is dead. it was running with hardy heron. now i got this: http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/395662/ what can i try, to get the game. i tryed to get it new with gnome-games in synaptic by delete and new install, but the erorrs are the same. [07:45] WOW! and so does desktop effects for two users at the same time!!!!!! [07:45] losher: I tried that too: same result! [07:45] anyone know how to compile clive? [07:46] i have been trying for weeks [07:46] Jacobian_: so none of the work at all? [07:46] losher: Right, none of those three commands work. [07:47] does anyone know how to compile clive? :/ [07:47] is ubuntu 9.10 coming with kernel 2.6.30 and xserver-xorg-video-intel ver 2.8? [07:47] DeannaT2, it is in german and not sure what it says. How did you delete the game? [07:47] jjh: Sorry, jjh, I've tried to compile it. Perhaps google will know? [07:47] with synaptic - dont know the correct word in english. total delete?

If not, you can always compile and install them. It's fun. :) [07:48] Jacobian_: i tried with google dead end... i suspect it needs some dependencies [07:48] DeannaT2: We should be able to fix it [07:48] looking for help setting up dual monitors with separate X sessions, when I try at the moment, second monitor just goes into standby [07:48] Jacobian_, this will be fine :-) [07:48] jjh: Hmm, you're probably right. [07:48] jjh: Do you have any error messages to go on? [07:48] kinja-sheep: its intredible! ive been waiting for this to fix for ever, and how that ive install a couple of packages, intel x3100 video works exelent! [07:49] DeannaT2: You've already tried removing the games with Synaptic, and then reinstalling them? [07:49] Jacobian_: well none that let me see what it may be missing,, only error test failed when testing after the make [07:49] DeannaT2: And the problem remains? [07:49] Jacobian_, yes [07:49] Jacobian_, yes [07:49] DeannaT2: Okay, it may be that some of the data files are corrupt. [07:49] DeannaT2: It's an idea, anyway [07:50] DeannaT2, did you try to remove it using the terminal? [07:50] DarkMage26, no, dont know, how [07:50] DeannaT2: Let me see if I can find where the configuration files are located. Then we can make a complete fresh installation. [07:51] Jacobian_: so have you done step 1 -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/205427 [07:51] has anyone ever compiled clive? [07:51] Jacobian_, ok [07:51] i want to record audio and video from webcam in ubuntu 9.04? [07:51] VLC? === kt- is now known as redstick [07:51] VLC is to slow [07:52] any another program [07:52] DeannaT2: Here's something else to try: In Synaptic, when you uninstall the game, you can click right on the checkbox, and choose "Remove Completely" [07:52] Jacobian_, DarkMage26 i have done nothing, i think it was after the last 34 updates [07:52] Jacobian_, i have done this [07:52] DeannaT2: Okay [07:52] DeannaT2: That should remove all the files for the game, except the configuration files [07:53] DeannaT2: We can remove them as well, and then install a clean copy [07:53] Jacobian_, but i dit it not only for mahjongg, i did it for the complete gnome-games [07:53] DeannaT2: The other possibility is that there a problem from one of the updates which is interferring with the game [07:53] DeannaT2: Perfect. [07:54] DeannaT2, what os you using? [07:54] DarkMage26, hardy heron [07:54] DeannaT2: Just out of curiousity, did the other games work okay? Or was it just Mahjongg? [07:54] Jacobian_, freecell works, other games i didnt try [07:55] DeannaT2: Can you translate this: "Leider geht Mahjongg nicht mehr. Ich habe schon Gnome-Games über Synaptic entfernt und neu geholt, aber die Fehlermeldung bleibt die gleiche." [07:56] Jacobian_, i will try. mahjongg doesnt work. i have remove gnome-games and installed it new. the error-message is the same. [07:56] 1 2 3 [07:57] i guess no one here has compiled it? [07:57] DeannaT2, try sudo apt-get remove xxxxxxx (xxxxxx = name of pacakge to remove, ie wacom-tools ) [07:57] clive.. [07:57] bla [07:57] lol [07:57] DarkMage26, sudo apt-get remove mahongg? [07:58] Do you see anything when you type: "ls ~/.gconf/mahjongg" [07:58] DeannaT2, mahjongg but yes [07:58] yes DarkMage26 [07:59] DeannaT2: Are there any files here: "ls ~/.gconf/mahjongg" [07:59] Jacobian_, no, cannot find terminal says [07:59] DeannaT2: I don't have the games installed, but that may be the path for the user data. Can you tell me if it's right? [07:59] jacobian_, I will check [08:00] No such file or directory [08:00] , Jacobian_ [08:00] Jacobian_, the ls command says no such file or directory , cannot find [08:00] guys, Can I collect linux software from Mac source?

[08:02] yes [08:02] mmm. [08:02] is there a way to get ubuntu to automatically change my timezone based on my ip? [08:02] salvatore: You can use a graphical interface [08:02] THANK YOUUUUU [08:02] Hi [08:02] DeannaT2, did you do the sudo to remove the program now? [08:02] salvatore: In Ubuntu, there is a main menu [08:02] yes [08:03] where? [08:03] How could I connect to this channel, but using Tor [08:03] Gevz, its unlikely. even though Mac and Linux are roughly based on the same core (i.e. Unix and Linux) Mac uses Quark for many many things and uses an unconventional directory format, which would make modifying Mac sources an absolute nightmare [08:03] Jacobian_, , DarkMage26 should i try now try sudo apt-get remove mahjongg? [08:03] !tor | Operations [08:03] Operations: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse.

It should be in the bottom left corner of the screen, but it might be somewhere else if the panels have been rearranged. [08:03] Thank you [08:03] mmm yes [08:03] salvatore: When you find the menu, then you'll need to click on "Add/Remove Software" [08:04] in italian it shoul is "applications" [08:04] rdw200169: thanx, sorry that does not work [08:04] add/remove applications [08:04] *it should be [08:04] is there an ncurses/readline notes application like tomboy or gnote? [08:04] hloll [08:04] DeannaT2: You're doing a more complete removal with Synaptic, so you should use Synaptic [08:05] rabelais, hmm... good question, you can try Vst for Vim [08:05] hi [08:05] Jacobian, DarkMage26 sudo apt-get remove mahjongg says: could not find paket [08:05] rdw200169: isn't that more of a markup language? [08:06] DeannaT2, so it is already uninstalled? [08:06] rabelais, i think so, but i think it supports searchable wiki-type links across notes files in vim [08:06] Has anyone in here ever had trouble with .cbr files not displaying properly? I can view .cbz files just fine but when I try to open .cbr files in comix, qcomicbook, or even just the document viewer I just a placeholder image like it's a broken link or something for all of the pages [08:06] rabelais, but i'm not sure about that [08:06] DarkMage26, dont know, i installed complete gnome-games new, after total remove [08:06] DeannaT2: That's right. It's already uninstalled. That's perfect.

Uninstall gnome-games again, completely. [08:52] before i do change, Jacobian_ ? [08:52] DeannaT2: Then reinstall gnome-games. That ought to work! Let me know how it goes. [08:52] # mkdir -p /mnt/disk [08:52] ok Jacobian_ first i reinstall, than i change, then i tell you :-) [08:52] # cp ISOfile into this folder [08:52] DeannaT2: Perfect [08:52] # mount -o loop disk1.iso /mnt/disk [08:53] thats all do under root [08:53] or su [08:53] Which html editor would you suggest ? [08:53] Gevz: we recommend using sudo [08:53] or sudo [08:53] with a graphical user interface. Not talking about html coding. [08:54] \join #ubuntu-de [08:54] int's /join [08:54] Question for those running ssh servers: Do you use rsa or dsa and why? [08:56] Is there a problem with mounting the ISO? [08:57] W UBUNTU [08:57] Helloo guys :) [08:57] hello [08:57] Hi [08:58] hi [08:58] guys yesterday i had a problem with my resolution :) [08:58] and? [08:58] that's ok, new years day isn't for a while now [08:58] Now i have a diffrent one but this time with gnome itself [08:59] net [08:59] Hey guys is there such a thing in Ubuntu like "record what you hear" to use Sound Recorder to record all the sounds that play on the speakers? [08:59] For example I wanted to record audio segments of YouTube videos. [08:59] is there still any demand for 2005 high-end video cards? [09:00] i have analog mix which works for me [09:00] my problem is my sound card is broken. I have HP dv8000 laptop. I bought an USB sound card. [09:00] linuxguy2009: You need to choose a sound input for Sound Recorder. It might work if you play the sound on your speakers, and use the computer microphone to record everything you hear. But it will be a low quality copy. [09:00] right [09:00] it is fresh install ubuntu 9.04 and now when gdm loads no menus nothin just wallpaper..? any suggestions? [09:00] Babajus: what is the problem? [09:00] linuxguy2009: use a patch cable to loop the output of your card back to the line in [09:01] oh.. [09:01] Ok so it sounds like your sound driver has to support it.Or the in/out loop.Yep. [09:01] ok [09:01] Hello [09:01] Gevz: any thoughts how to fix it? [09:01] how to change that? i'm a newbie. [09:01] I met with this problem [09:01] second [09:02] i thinking [09:02] Gevz: okie dokie :) [09:02] linuxguy2009: I was just thinking: isn't there a problem for extracting the audio track from a flash file? [09:02] dis Install 8.04 [09:02] how do I tell if anything depends on ghc6 on my system? [09:02] I want to remove it [09:03] Babajus: I can mistake, but i think you need fix x server [09:03] Jacobian_: Well I know I can use keepvid to actually download the videos but I just thought it was time i learned how to do the record what i heat option.Cuase I can use it for other things later on too.Thats all. [09:03] Gevz: hmm is it? [09:03] Babajus: login in console [09:04] ctrl al f2? [09:04] linuxguy2009: Ah, I see [09:04] Gevz: ctrl alt + f2? [09:04] linuxguy2009: You could also try a high-quality desktop microphone. You could pick up all the sounds in the room, including what is playing on your speakers. [09:05] errr... what room would i go to to talk about video cards? [09:05] Jacobian_: Yeah thats true. I actually own a Boss BR-1600 digital studio and a good condenser. Thats an option. [09:05] mgmuscari: #hardware? [09:05] thanks [09:06] * fire_fox paw na do to tainiaki m p telionei se ligo:S === jer_ is now known as deviltheory [09:08] Hi. I try to fix the dsdt of my laptop.

[09:08] i`m here again [09:10] Hmm [09:11] guys so how to fix menus after fresh install of ubuntu 9.04? i see only wallpaper? [09:11] Babajus Install 8.04 :) [09:12] henryklyczkowsk2: :D [09:12] I dunno why people get so horny when new version is released [09:12] 8.04 is the most stable [09:13] With updates ofcourse [09:13] henryklyczkowsk2: maybe they want to learn smth? :) [09:13] Babajus, try to start gnome-panel [09:13] anyone using mibbit :D [09:13] ? [09:13] why freenode block it? [09:13] I don't get it [09:13] kaini how [09:13] ? [09:14] ALT-F2 [09:14] pen: freenode questions should go to #freenode [09:15] pen: http://blog.freenode.net/2009/06/new-freenode-webchat-and-why-to-use-it/ [09:15] lstarnes: Oops... sorry :-) [09:16] 33 updates to hardy in one day :) ! [09:16] NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now. [09:16] Anyway I wait until next lts version [09:17] But I guess it gonna suck too :) [09:17] henryklyczkowsk2: youre so pesimist :) [09:18] Babajus: I would say pessimists are never dissapointed, but thats rather optimistic of me... [09:18] powertool08: maybe :D\ [09:19] Ok enough talks :D so any thoughts on my problem concerning missing menus and only walpaper? :) [09:19] Babajus No. I've seen 9.04 and if they gonna go in that way in next releases it gonna suck [09:19] Babajus: Anything in the logs at /var/log/X.org? [09:20] Press ALt-Key + F2 key - a "Run" Dialog should open - type gnome-panel in there. Maybe that works [09:20] Babajus: or in dmesg | tail? [09:20] ctrl + alt + del Its a perfect solution :) [09:20] powertool08: ok first things first :) [09:20] henryklyczkowsk2: that doesn't do anything on my machine :) [09:21] Thats bad :) [09:21] powertool08: strange: darius@darius-desktop:~$ sudo gedit /var/log/X.org [09:21] Bus error [09:21] darius@darius-desktop:~$ [09:21] I am editing the GNOME terminal profile 'DL2'. How can I determine the default size of the GNOME terminal? [09:22] anyone that needs help but not gotten a response, let me know and maybe I can help. [09:22] henryklyczkowsk2: Not really, I can ctrl alt bksp, if that fails, ctrl alt f1 and attempt via cli, if that fails, safe hard reset with the REISUB trick [09:22] DarkMage26, Hi. I try to fix the dsdt of my laptop. I could fix all warnings except this one: http://howflow.com/pastes/1491 Which Return statement should I remove? [09:22] Babajus: try gksudo [09:22] DarkMage26: i need :) [09:23] Is anyone here? [09:23] I think something really bad is happening with firefox right now [09:23] I came here a few minutes ago about youtube sound not working [09:23] Babajus: Also I'm not entirely sure X.org is the exact file name, but its something close to that [09:23] so [09:23] I tried this fix [09:23] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=255422 [09:23] i3ear: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [09:24] i3ear, you get sound from everything else but youtube? [09:24] When I did the "gksudo gedit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc" part of the fix, all I got was a blank file [09:24] hey i deleted my WINE menu after I uninstalled wine cause i wanted to re-do it, now when I reinstall WINE the menu is not there anymore, and I would like it. [09:25] I tried just copying and pasting "FIREFOX_DSP=”aoss”" into it, and then save, but I got an error "File could not be found" [09:25] I am editing the GNOME terminal profile 'DL2'. How can I set the default size of the GNOME terminal? [09:25] i3ear: If it opens a blank file its usually because you don't have permissions, but since you used gksudo, it probably doesn't exist [09:25] guys. can you suggest me a good webcam softwere? [09:26] powertool08: cant open anything [09:26] i3ear: Well, I don't have "/etc/firefox/firefoxrc" either, and my sound is working in Firefox. The new Firefox directory seems to be /etc/firefox-3.0. Maybe the instructions are for an older firefox? [09:26] Gee [09:26] Gee? [09:26] Babajus: did you try the alt+f2 to get a run dialog which was suggested earlier? [09:26] powertool08: its not working here after pushing those buttons nothin happens [09:27] bullgard4: You can set the size of the Terminal using the geometry settings. One second, and I'll show you what I do. [09:27] Babajus: are you in failsafe with a terminal or something? [09:28] bullgard4: Here's what I do. I have an application launcher in the panel, and I launch the Terminal with this command: xfce4-terminal --geometry 125x14+0-0 [09:28] when you remove a kernel using apt-get remove the system says it needs to restart which is just silly [09:29] Jacobian_: Do you use any cli programs which require alt:1, alt:2, etc to navigate? [09:29] hey i deleted my WINE menu after I uninstalled wine cause i wanted to re-do it, now when I reinstall WINE the menu is not there anymore, and I would like it. [09:29] salvatore: for what you need webcam software? [09:29] bullgard4: You'll need to change the geometry a little. You'll also probably need to change the command to use gnome-terminal, instead of xfce4-terminal. It will work with just about any terminal you use. [09:29] powertool08: No, I'm afraid I don't. [09:30] Jacobian_: So, what command line should I use [09:30] Jacobian_: Ok, alt:1 doesn't work for me but all other numbers do, just curious if it was everyone or just me. [09:30] Jacobian_: To fix my youtube sound, sorry about the spam, it is a habit [09:30] salvatore: I would advice to you ZoneMinder [09:30] Jacobian_, DarkMage26 it doesnt work, i need some coffee first [09:31] i3ear: ps aux | grep -i pulseaudio [09:31] then kill that process. [09:31] then restart your browser [09:31] Jacobian_: I think that using an application launcher for this purpose is a detour. Is there no way to implement straightforwardly a default size? [09:31] Jacobian_, DarkMage26 it reinstall, test, no work, test file from a friend, no work [09:32] salvatore: or Geekast [09:32] i3ear: I'm not sure about the sound in Firefox. My sister had a problem with her Flash, and our solution was simply to change the package that we were using for Flash. We were able to fix her problem that way. There are several Flash packages you can try. You can search for them in Add/Remove Software. If there is a package dependency problem, you can fix it using Synaptic. [09:32] DeannaT2: How incredibly frustrating! [09:32] DeannaT2: And even removing that file didn't help? [09:33] Jacobian_, its only a game .-) time to play the game, or time to get game running... [09:33] Jacobian_, yes [09:33] bullgard4: The geometry settings are the right approach, but you're right. You must be able to set this in your configuration. That way you can use your settings without the launcher. [09:34] Hello everyone! [09:34] bullgard4: I've never changed my geometry settings in my configuration, but you may be able to find the answer in Google, by searching for your terminal and for geometry. [09:34] hello ubuntu users [09:34] bullgard4: Look at the posts towards the bottom http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-255048.html [09:34] * fire_fox epitelous gmt tin trela m mia romantiki tainia xoris happy end:> [09:35] hi [09:36] whats up [09:36] Could you please help me? I had to ubuntu ext3 partitions and deleted the one not in use, so I could extend the one I do use to fill up the space. It all went fine, but next reboot grub halted with an "error 22" is there a way to fix this?

[09:37] looks like you will reinstall grub from the live disc maybe [09:37] powertool08: take a look http://pastebin.com/m4032525e [09:38] oh ok, i tried this method and it didnt work out [09:38] i believe you have to point grub at the other ext3 partition [09:38] how can one do that? [09:39] Babajus: The only obvious things I see in there are the mouse/keyboard being disabled [09:39] DeannaT2: If you've reinstalled the software, and you've regenerated your user settings, then what is left? I'm thinking it could be either a bug in Mahjongg, or a problem with other dependencies. Can you see if there are any bug reports for Mahjongg? [09:39] anyone know how to change jpeg quality with viagre? [09:39] i mean vinagre? [09:39] powertool08: but theyre working otherwise i wouldn type you here :) [09:40] not sure dmc , when grub comes up can you edit? [09:40] and try different paritions like hd0,1 [09:40] nonversation, yes just type e at the menu [09:40] or hd0,0 [09:41] oO [09:41] Babajus: I'm kinda confused on your situation. Are you saying the login screen is just wallpaper, or once you login its just wallpaper, in either case, how did you get irc open without menus and without alt+f2? [09:41] maybe do some trial and error and see if it works [09:41] wtf!!! started my comp and my grub says only Debian/GNU adn it doesnt even boot ... everything else has gone! [09:41] can I edit grub from the livecd ubuntu? [09:41] ïðèâåò [09:41] dmckenzie: yes [09:42] you should be able to do it at start up without the disc I believe [09:42] nonversation, if you type e at the grub menu you can edit the boot commands to change your hard drives [09:42] powertool08: my case is when i login its just walpaper and i use gnome-do :) [09:42] just at the grub screen type E [09:42] !ru | andreai [09:42] andreai: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke === Gevz is now known as Gevz_away [09:42] nonversation: nope. Grub doesnt actually gets to the stage where i could use 'e' to edit.. it stops at an error message 22 [09:42] Babajus: gnome-do? I'm not familiar with that... How does it work? [09:42] !away > Gevz_away [09:42] Gevz_away, please see my private message [09:43] is there a backup of menu.lst somewhere? [09:43] sorry nonversation my typing should be addressed to dmc [09:43] sounds like its time to reinstall grub [09:43] I would just follow the guide in the link i posted with the disc [09:43] powertool08kinda hard to explain.. [09:43] and see if i could reinstall grub [09:43] that solution didnt work, I tried it earlier [09:43] Babajus: Ok, I'll check google. [09:44] ok === Gevz_away is now known as Gevz [09:44] can you access that partition from the live disc? maybe back up your data and reinstall [09:44] maybe it will pick up the home parition and import it [09:45] you can manually partition and go for ext4 ;) [09:45] so guys any tips how to fix my problem...? i cant see menus only walpaper? any thoughts on that? [09:45] nonversation: yes i can, there's only one problem. I have one hd. [09:46] Babajus: try gnome-panel in gnome-do [09:46] I would face the same problem after I reinstall the system [09:46] becouse I'd have to merge the two partitions again [09:47] and that would obviously mess things up again to the state I am in now [09:47] powertool08: it cant find it [09:47] you dont have a flash drive you can back up [09:47] how to install ac3 filter in ubuntu [09:47] hello, [09:47] apt-get! [09:47] only other choice is just to keep trying to fix grub [09:48] maybe boot from the live disc [09:48] and fdisk -l [09:48] Babajus: can you pastebin "dmesg | tail"? [09:48] and see what partitions are listed [09:48] write them down [09:48] nonversation: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [09:48] powertool08: how to do that? [09:48] nonversation: i have around 50Gbs to be backed up :D [09:48] i have about 6GB of VOB files that i need to burn to a 4.7GB DVD. can i convert these to a lower quality or burn them so they're smaller?

[11:02] view source of the page with the movie, ok? [11:02] yeap [11:02] and ? [11:02] then search for this string [11:02] ok [11:03] because newbies often have problems with port settings [11:03] what is inside the "" of the src attribute [11:03] is what you copy [11:03] copy to the vlc player [11:03] Now, after that, open VLC, go Media>Open Network and insert that url [11:04] yeah that should work... but is not what i need [11:04] i open pretty often online radio as well [11:04] well it works, and I doubt it will in the browser any time soon [11:04] cant be bothered to do that all the time [11:04] wouldn't radio be different?

[11:12] unless it is recording everything that plays [11:12] it should, play,pause,stop,volume [11:12] o ok [11:13] Delano, I don't think you can, because the installation detects your hardware, and your real hardware is different from Virtualbox emulated hardware. I think it could be possible to mount the ubuntu disk image as a folder or as a drive, but I don't know how.

[12:35] http://pastebin.com/mc4ae343 [12:35] ubuntu: yes, but ithought he want to install grub? i think ubuntu will get the best result if he install it from grub prompt, using chroot, mount the /dev and /proc [12:36] ups, that's for Kjell [12:36] hi. [12:37] sonism, my problem is that my pc doesn't c the boot menu, which has fedora nd windows, so now i'm using ubuntu live cd to try to fix this problem :) [12:37] hello [12:37] I have a question: Will I have any problems with the booting windows if I install ubuntu server after I have installed XP ? [12:37] No [12:38] ubuntu: yes, i realize that..... and you want to install the boot loader, right? [12:38] Intrep|d, no. [12:38] Intrep|d: no. but you'll have in the other order, because windows overwrites the mbr without askingf [12:38] ubuntu: The only fs that has the boot flag is sda2, which is a windows partition. [12:38] if that would solve my unknown problem [12:38] Intrep|d, just make sure your boot loader is setup correcetly [12:38] where is the script that is called when I suspend? [12:38] Because when you install Ubuntu Desktop it detects windows and you can see that it is detected, but Server installation doesn't have the same install and you don't see if it is detected or not [12:38] although I whenever I try to install XP after Linux, it always just freezes/hangs on a black screen once the cd loads, due to the mbr iirc [12:39] dunks: that shouldn't be [12:39] Donno, left it running over night once, didnt work so cleared the mbr and away it went [12:39] dunks my boot loader is configured during ubuntu server installation ? [12:39] Hi. [12:39] Or after it's installed [12:39] Hi everybody - I'm sort of struggling with Pulse Audio - what it does, how it works. I sort of have the idea that anything that produces sound presents it's on volume control in the pulse audio world, and that it should be easy to then record specific out from applications using something like Ardour. I was hoping to get that set up so that I could record Microphone on 1 track, skype call on another track - but it seems [12:39] kjell, aha... i have so important data on fedora partition i need it work again :( [12:39] Windows will likely overwrite grub. [12:40] you'll likely need to load into ubuntu live cd and re-install grub [12:40] which will then detect ubuntu and xp [12:40] Sp00K: here is a script that will sort mp3's http://paste.ubuntu.com/205560/ [12:40] Ok, thanx [12:40] legend2440, Thanks :-) [12:40] how to install this grub again? [12:41] dunks: you should select option to write the booting script in /boot folder instead of MBR when you are using dual boot [12:41] grub-install :p [12:41] google around, search the ubuntu forums there'll be plenty of examples [12:41] I have some problems with my computer that has ubuntu on it. After a while of usage, when I start something (for instance pressing a link in pidgin so that firefox opens) then a program freezes. while waiting for it, or trying to close it, other programs freeze. Then after a while, everything without the cursor is frozen. then nothing happens and I need to rebood forcefully. If I try to change the shell to a text shell and close som [12:41] ething, everything including the cursor freezes. What can be wrong? === hades_ is now known as Guest43676 [12:41] Padhu, I dont recall doing anything like that so probably window just hangs [12:41] :p [12:42] ubuntu: try fdisk /dev/sda and set the boot flag for sda3 and remove the boot flag for sda2 [12:42] why windows* [12:42] ubuntu: mount the later root fs to /mount: "mount /dev/sdaX /mount", then "grub-install --root-directory=/mount /dev/sda" and check the output [12:42] can someone help me with wicd please [12:42] i have a deep error when i type and enter any thing in pidgin it automatically exit. in the same way then i play another song in vlc it exits. this problem has originated today. === TamCore is now known as TamCore[oFF] [12:42] zagabar_: Could you computer be getting too hot? === TamCore[oFF] is now known as TamCore [12:43] ubuntu / Intrep|d [12:43] http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_linux_and_windows_xp_linux_installed_first.htm [12:43] not the best of links, but will give you a good idea [12:43] om26er, try to launch pidgin or vlc in the terminal, so that when it crashes it can print error messages. [12:43] Kjell sudo fdisk /dev/sda ? [12:43] computa_mike, very plausible actually. I have had some heat issues before, and now it is extremely hot where I live (27 degrees C. I am sitting barechested and in shorts D: ) How can I see the temp? [12:43] ubuntu: yes [12:44] computa_mike, I have a fan mate mounted on my chassi, I turned the fans up full now. Maybe the problem goes away. =) [12:44] if grub will be installed in the mbr, the boot flag is irrelevant [12:45] zagabar_: hopefully- i found this : http://www.bradtrupp.com/ubuntu-cpu-temperature.html [12:45] ubuntu: do as Kjell told you, then here's the general steps, first ,mount your fedora / into let's say, /media/sda3/, mount /dev into /media/sda3/dev, mount /proc into /media/sda3/proc, chroot into /dev/sda3, open grub prompt, thn install... [12:46] dunks thanx, but I just came to ask because the installation interface of Server is a bit different [12:47] Yeah, you'll need do the same even if it was ubuntu desktop [12:47] Bit of a hassle with XP after [12:47] anyone have a problem not being worked on? [12:48] Actually.. I might as well put Ubuntu desktop .. it's not taht much different than server and the installation is easier and safer for my XP :) [12:48] Well if you're starting from scratch again, just stick XP on first :) [12:48] computa_mike, thanks. =) [12:48] then ubuntu will detect it on install and configure grub for you [12:49] Even ubuntu server? [12:49] zagabar_: no worries - hope that works. [12:49] Kjell, it asked me abt the operation so i used toggle a bootable flag, then it asked abt the partition number(1-5) [12:49] if it detects it, it doesn't show it anywhere [12:49] how can i see which version of OSS do i have? [12:49] uname -a [12:49] XP isn't installed yet is it? [12:49] I have XP installed.. nothing more [12:49] ntfs-3g corrupt NTFS partitions in write process. it's really? [12:50] and disk resized [12:50] ubuntu: the first one is 2 the second time you do it is 3 [12:50] Oh [12:50] so XP is already installed? [12:50] And you're wanting to load ubuntu server [12:50] yes [12:50] Ah [12:50] :) [12:50] Hm, I would have thought it'd pick it up fine..l [12:51] As long as you dont change anything partition wise [12:51] Well yeah, thats the situation [12:51] I ve prob about hard drive [12:51] if grub *doesnt* pick XP up, you could just add it manually once you install ubuntu [12:51] but it's odd why it doesn't, I always thought both installers were the same [12:51] aytekin, more info needed..... [12:51] Nah, the desktop installer is graphical and the other isnt [12:52] Intrep|d: there is no problem. you can make a new grub entry for windows xp easily afterward in the case it was not detected [12:52] Partition Magic utility dont may resize partition wich NTFS after Ubuntu wite operations/ 9.04 [12:52] firstyl my hard drive has 4 partitions [12:52] oskar- cool .. I am just worried because my windows is very important [12:52] just make sure you dont touch the Xp partition and you'll be fine Intrep|d [12:52] Intrep|d: why dont u use a virtual machine??? [12:52] with ntfs format [12:53] i have a couple of ubuntu machines. Ive apt-get installed some apps onto one machine and id like to copy them to the other. How can i do this? [12:53] how can I connect to #iourbanterror.de ? [12:53] Kjell, it's ok now, what's next? [12:53] dunks I wont, everything is resized after the installation of Windows using partition magic and windows is working properly [12:53] Yeah you'll be fine then [12:53] now my ubuntu couldnt see hard drive parts [12:53] should i restart and check it will work? [12:53] Ok, I am starting the installation on my other PC, I'll write if a problem comes up :P [12:53] adding XP to grub is just a few lines as well, sp it's simple [12:53] Haha ok [12:53] Intrep|d: windows itself will not be touched, and windows xp can be booted without problems from grub with a entry like this: "title=winxp" (newline) "root (hdX,Y)" (newline) "chainloader +1" [12:54] ubuntu: press p to check that the boot flag is set correct [12:54] Intrep|d: if u are using a particular OS and wanna use other OS as well without disturbing ur machine...i think VM is the best choice [12:54] aytekin, what parts can it see? [12:54] Intrep|d: and u can even try the server edition... [12:54] Hey there, I cannot telnet out of my ubuntu box to any smtp server (say telnet gmail.com 25). Can anyone help me to resolve this please? [12:54] Hmm.. but VM does requere quite a lot of resources right? [12:54] Intrep|d: correction: if you use the partition resizing, then of course windows will be touched. but it seems to work well (?) [12:55] whats usr RAM? [12:55] and Processor?? [12:55] I make FAT32 exchange partition between Ubuntu and XP, and denie write to NFFS from ubuntu [12:55] Kjell http://pastebin.com/m543d8d5f [12:55] Intrep|d: wats ur RAM and Processor?? === sefadff is now known as D_ReaL_PuNiShEr [12:55] ubuntu: That looks correct [12:56] <_xray> rayno_b : how about "telnet gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com 25" [12:56] kjell, next?

[12:56] ok [12:56] ok thanx for the advise [12:56] Intrep|d: im using it on a P4 with 2gb and am able to run upto 4 machines without any problem [12:57] VM is the way to go if you're just wanting to try it out, but nothing wrong with dual booting :) [12:57] Intrep|d: i feel its the cleanest bet [12:57] _xray, thank you for that - I can telnet to that specific address without a problem on my gateway server, but not from my mail server. [12:57] Kjell, what to do next? [12:58] ubuntu: to make sure it is mounted try mount /dev/sda3 /media/_boot [12:58] Intrep|d: http://www.virtualbox.org/ [12:58] Well.. I am not gonna run a server with it, I just want to try to configure stuff on it like DNS servers, routing, sendmail, iptables etc. [12:58] <_xray> so your gatteway is preventig your mailserver from connecting ?` [12:58] hi guys... first time mythbuntu. can someone tell me which restricted extras should I use? ubuntu or xbuntu?

[12:59] zacatlan: i suggest just to pick the first one and try it [12:59] Intrep|d: then just check it out...u will find it a gr8 utility [12:59] ubuntu: good. now ls /media/_boot to check what is in there [12:59] I'll do thanks [12:59] Hello!

I'm trying to share a wired Internet connection this way. [13:33] Question: I am using VirtualBox but when I try to install the Ubuntu Server it says it detects a 32 bit machine and wont install. (it's 64 version) Anyway to fix this? [13:33] Hello, is there a linux app that opens FH8 (Freehand) files ? [13:34] ActionParsnip, thanks, appreciate ) [13:34] Intrep|d: virtualbox doesn't support 64-bit you'll have to install the 32-bit version [13:34] O.o [13:34] Intrep|d: your host can only host 64bit guests if you cpu has certain features [13:34] My PC is 64 bit [13:34] Intrep|d: yours clearly does not so you can only have 32bit guests [13:34] But seems like virtualbox isnt [13:34] Intrep|d: doesnt matter, if it doesnt have a certain feature then you cannot run 64bit guests [13:35] cant run 32 bit on a 64 bit computer.... [13:35] arthur: 64bit chips can run 32bit OS [13:35] Intrep|d: it's not just being 64-bit proc... you need "hardware virtualisation support" [13:35] he might have amd-v, inte-vt disabled in the bios ActionParsnip [13:35] ActionParsnip, hey mate what details would i have to give u for u to be able to tell me if my new pc is going to be totaly 64bit compatible? [13:35] ActionParsnip I am able to install the 64 bit version normally.. but not with virtualbox [13:36] Intrep|d: you need "hardware virtualisation support" in your processor... what processor do you have? [13:36] dual core [13:36] Laibsch: not on a laptop, but on a normal pc. i used hostapd with the nl80211 driver and a ralink network card with the kernel's built-in driver [13:36] Intrep|d: Intel? AMD? which socket? [13:36] Intrep|d: yes you can install a 64bit OS natively on the system. If you want to run 64bit virtualised systems yuo processor needs a few features inside it which yours doesnt have [13:36] It's intel dual core 2ghz [13:36] cat /proc/cpuinfo === saulus_ is now known as SauLus [13:36] Hmz.. :/ [13:36] Intrep|d: run the command that dunks said... [13:37] then look for vmx [13:37] in the flags [13:37] Intrep|d, is VT-X enabled in the VirtualBox settings for that machine? [13:37] Run it where lol [13:37] in fact... you can do "cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep vmx" [13:37] I am using windows [13:37] Intrep|d: not all cpu's can do it. even if it was 16 core, if it doesnt have the required thing then you can't do it [13:37] ah Intrep|d [13:37] what model of processor exactly? [13:38] what do you do when it says It appears that your graphics driver does not support the necessary extensions to use this tool? === [ifroog] is now known as [criipt] [13:38] also, did you enable the hardware virtualisation thing when you made the vmachine? I can't remember what the option is exactly [13:38] Intrep|d: it's probable that your processor doesn't support vmx in which case you can't run 64-bit guests [13:39] hi im trying to get into my xubuntu system from a ubuntu live cd and it asks me for a username and password, i put mine but it doesnt seem to work, is there anyway i can log in without it? considering that im trying to do this cuz the GRUB of my brand new xubuntu installation won't load and i have to substitute it with LILO... any help? [13:39] EvRide, I'm guessing the tool you're trying to use has 3d and you don't have graphic drivers installed [13:39] k [13:39] processor is E2180 [13:39] dunks I think I enabled all [13:40] Maybe IRConan is right then [13:40] i dont think the e2180 has intel-vt [13:40] it's pretty entry level [13:40] just run 32bit ubuntu server [13:40] Yeh... will have to download that [13:41] oskar-: Cool. Normal PC is OK, of course, too. I think one has to bring the wireless card into Master mode, right? I tried that yesterday, but it failed for some reason. I retried a minute a go and now all of the sudden it worked (I was already connected via wifi, maybe that is the difference?) [13:42] latets vbox has VT enabled by default for newly created machines.. my cpu doesnt support it but the machine works anyway so i guess its ignored if not found on cpu [13:42] After the card is in Master mode, I should be able to make point-to-point conncetions from other computers, right? === Laibsch1 is now known as Laibsch [13:42] any 5.1 output player for songs in ubuntu ? [13:43] Laibsch1: setting the master mode may fail, if the card is already in use. normally hostapd should set this mode, if you use nl80211. with other cards and drivers i have no experience [13:44] Laibsch: do you mean ad-hoc? [13:44] any body able to help ? [13:45] oskar-: I'm not sure. I'm really not that familiar with wifi. I will be going on a trip next week and I want to share my expensive hotel DSL line with my colleague via wifi. [13:46] Laibsch: then you should make an access-point out of your card/laptop... you should somehow tell ubuntu and networkmanager, that it shall not touch the wifi card, and at the same time hostapd to use it to offer ap services [13:46] Vas [13:48] oskar-: OK, cool. Do you have some good howto somewhere? I'm off to read the docs a bit and see what google has to say [13:48] Laibsch: hm, no, especially not for ubuntu (i set it up on gentoo)...

[14:14] how can i make XChat-gnome show all people in the channel in a list on right next to the chat? [14:14] sambagirl: lshw [14:14] lspci [14:14] doesnt work [14:14] CyberAspie: yes i can boot live [14:14] <_fynn> how to enable scrolling with the middle mouse button on thinkpads in jaunty? i tried the thing on thinkwiki but it doesnt work at all, though it's fpr intrepid.. where there changes in jaunty? [14:14] sambagirl: Wrong window -_- [14:14] n1ght: I think it's in the View menu [14:15] wrong windoe? [14:15] well it doesnt work in my macbook but it does in ubuntu [14:15] ab3l, can you post an lspci and a lsusb to pastebin.com? [14:15] on my thinkpad [14:15] oskar-, Yeah, i dont really understand all that to much, i think the reboot is the best idea. [14:16] ooh sorry my normal language is dutch [14:16] so lshw -v [14:16] grawity: no in view all i can edit is a list on the left, that only show which networks and channels im connected to [14:16] i thought it was more like lspci -v [14:16] n1ght: you sure there is no "User list"? [14:16] mosje, try #ubuntu-de [14:16] CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo: yes, it will work. if it hangs at shutdown, use the magic sysrq key with "reisub": ctrl+alt+r,e,i,s,u,b [14:16] oke tanks [14:16] thats for dutch [14:16] i'm gonna try [14:16] oskar-: er, it's Alt-SysRq-R,E,I,S,U,B [14:16] oskar-: Not Ctrl-Alt. [14:16] lspci is a command on Unix-like operating systems that prints detailed information about all PCI buses and devices in the system. [14:17] grawity: no, thats why im asking, if it was there id have turned it on already :P [14:17] 0.o [14:17] sorry, yes [14:17] i aint got that many fingers... [14:17] * grawity installs Xchat and goes to look for that missing menu [14:17] CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo: You only need to press one at once [14:17] oh aight, ta, lol. [14:17] CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo: Hold Alt-SysRq, press and release R, press and release E ... [14:18] Acturally, this may be dumb, whats sysrq? [14:18] CyberAspie: i already know my chipset is vt8237 all i need is A) there's an option to load sata drivers during installation ? B) where i can find drivers for vt8237 based SATA [14:18] CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo: "print screen" key [14:18] !botsnack [14:18] Sorry, I don't know anything about botsnack [14:18] CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo: A key on your keyboard - probably labelled "Print Screen / SysRq", or just "Print Screen" if the makers were lazy. [14:18] !sysrq | CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo [14:18] CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key [14:18] ahh roight, printers were lazy. [14:18] lol. [14:19] CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo: The SysRq key is very rarely used these days, so it might be not labelled that ... just look for PrintScreen. [14:19] Yep, got it, :) [14:20] CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo: you only need this combination in the case it hangs, but in your case it is likely to hang at umount because of the opened files of the firefox process [14:20] i just found this: Q. What’s up with the new user list pop-up? [14:20] A. When xchat-gnome was first written, we stuck the user list in the main UI, just like we were all used to. It was in a different spot, but it seemed natural that it should be there. As we used it more, we realized something. In order to be useful, the user list was taking up a lot of space, but we were rarely even looking at it. And so, it got hidden behind a button, and pops up. This gives us several advantages, but one in particular guided the decision. [14:20] It doesn’t use up a lot of space in the main UI, but when it’s shown, we can make it stretch vertically to the entire height of the screen [14:20] oskar-: er, Firefox will be already killed by the E key. [14:20] n1ght: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [14:20] but i cant find any button for it [14:21] ab3l, sorry. i was in a different channel, hold on and ill pull that up [14:21] if my ubuntu resides on sda5 what would the root (hd0,?) be in Grub?? [14:21] grawity: depends on how the e key works.. the process is in an uninterruptible sleep. it does not react on signals [14:21] ah i found it [14:21] n1ght: click on bottom left where says 1394 Users [14:21] oskar-: well, either E (SIGTERM), I (SIGKILL), or S (sync) will have it killed I'm sure. [14:21] lssuub [14:21] opps [14:21] oskar-: yeah, sync did help me once to wake a process from unint sleep. [14:22] (Probably coincidience though) [14:22] legend2440: yes thx i just found it myself, is there any way to make the list popup on the right of the screen? and make it permanently shown? [14:22] ab3l, are you running LTS (8.04.*) or Jaunty (9.04) [14:23] n1ght: i dont know [14:23] CoUrPsE_CoLlEcTo: you can of course try only r,e,i,s and see, if the process goes away with that... maybe you do not need to reboot at all then [14:23] n1ght: btw, in Xchat (not Xchat-gnome) of Ubuntu 9.04, the list is visible until I switch it off. [14:23] why dont makedir command work in LiveCD? [14:24] CyberAspie: 9.04 [14:24] thank you [14:24] n1ght: you mean 'mkdir'? [14:24] grawity: ok ill try that then [14:24] grawity: thank you [14:25] ab3l, is it an SATA Raid Driver? [14:25] s/n1ght/n0gear/ ._.

[14:32] tumii, if you are a VERY advanced Linux user then you could but your best bet is to stick to update manager [14:33] ok then i just stick with updates [14:34] ab3l, due to lack of bandwith and my ubuntu fix-it skills being rusty i'm clueless, but that lspci and lsusb could help [14:34] so i need a worki know bu since i'm helping a friend of mine i cannot execute cmd directly [14:34] hi all, I have a windows based PC in other room with workgroup = ACEKING, to make this ubuntu machine share the same network workgroup, firstly is /etc/samba/smb.conf the file I should be altering, secondly, I should be changing "workgroup = WORKGROUP" to "workgroup = ACEKING" ? === paultag_ is now known as paultag [14:35] !samba > aJack7 [14:35] aJack7, please see my private message [14:36] aJack7: yes, that is right [14:36] ab3l: read posts 1 and 2 here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/sata-drive-not-detected-662096/ [14:36] !help [14:36] Hi!

Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [15:15] ubuntu i think its something with the xorg.conf file === carlos is now known as Guest13903 [15:15] english or spanish? [15:16] ok , pero quiero ir al irchispano, como lo hago [15:16] but i cant find the solution [15:16] bazhang: it's Hardwer Tester output, if helps. http://pastie.org/527129 [15:16] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance gmv there is a forums link as well, but the forums are down at the moment [15:17] thanks bazhang [15:17] Are Canonical's servers having issues currently? Specifically the keyserver seems not to be responding. I can ping, but requesting keys times out. [15:17] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 gmv when they come back up [15:18] /login [15:19] Oh noes. Ubuntu Forums are down. [15:19] are they ever! [15:21] Hello I need your help! I use partimg to restore a 53GB image on a 100GB partition. After restore, it runs fine but in Sytem Monitor it says the partition is just 53GB? How to "update" this information? [15:22] damn, [15:22] was working on the forums [15:22] anyone knows what happend? [15:22] prob the database server is down [15:22] :P [15:23] kbp: I think it gets that number from what the partition table says, so you'll want to check that it's correct [15:23] That I know for sure [15:23] (the partition table, I mean) [15:23] kbp, strange, I use clonezilla which uses partimage, and my partitions are never physically modified after a restore, just the data/content [15:23] microcai:wow~1387people [15:23] I used GParted to check and yea the partition is still 100GB, the problem is that Ubuntu thinks it's 53GB === gary_ is now known as Guest64174 [15:23] is there chance to "update" it? [15:24] *any [15:24] kbp: You broke it. :( [15:24] n1ght_: how can i upload menu.lst to this room? [15:24] kbp, in system monitor, File systems, total ? [15:24] I am using pidgin [15:24] kbp: #ubuntu isn't helping you? [15:24] Oh wait. Wrong channel. >_> [15:24] :D [15:24] * Mike_lifeguard awakens mobi-sheep :P [15:25] hello [15:25] kbp, what about df -h in a terminal ? [15:25] edouradp: the total still 53GB in System Monitor (but Gparted reported it 100GB, its so weird) [15:25] kbp: The thing is that your filesystem and the partition it's on are supposed to have the same size - you need to check that that is the case and fix it if not [15:26] df -h gives 53GB [15:26] hello people, i have a problem with ubuntu 9.04 netbook remix [15:26] kbp: if you use a tool like Gparted, it does that for you, but if you use command line tools where you do those things separately, it's possible to mess up (I've done it) [15:26] proz0r: best state what the actual problem is or nobody can help you [15:26] hey quick question. i'm using 'find . -name *.filetype' to recrusivly get the files i want. but i want to feed each file it finds to a small script/ program. would anyone know how to do that? [15:26] Mike_lifeguard: actually the image was made from a partition on my laptop, and then I used that image to restore on my desktop [15:27] hello, I had Deluge bittorrent client running for over a week with no problems, but now it suddenly won't start the GUI, the program hangs immedieatly after I start it, spent an hour in the deluge channel, and it turns out that the Ubuntu repository has version 1.1.6, and the latest is 1.1.9 - when can I expect that version to be in the repo? [15:27] kbp, you could try to resize the FS with resize2fs [15:27] markolonius: add -exec to the command [15:27] kbp: Yes, I just used that as an example of how it can happen. Specifically it has transferred a small filesystem to a large partition -- the size of the filesystem needs to be grown to fill the partition [15:27] markolonius: you use {} to signify what is found [15:28] ok thank you Mike_lifeguard and edouardp I gonna try to resize FS [15:28] ActionParsnip: when i do -exec it keeps sayig missing argument to -exec command [15:28] the thing is that i can't run chess in 3d because it shows the message to install python drivers. i have did it and set 3D in the game but when i try to run it, it just opens the "outline" of the window and instantly closes, so i can't even run it in 2d now [15:28] kbp: the small size you're seeing reported is the filesystem size -- the large one reported by gparted is the partition size [15:28] how can i share files between a pc and a lappy boh having linux [15:28] markolonius: e.g. find -name *.jpg -exec convert {} {}.png will find jpg files, and use imagemagick to make png files, [15:29] markolonius: my example would find picture.jpg and make picture.jpg.png [15:29] zak: how are they connected? (internet presumably, but what else?) [15:29] markolonius: as an example [15:29] http://paste.ubuntu.com/205626/ Can anyone spot whats wrong with my menu.lst? It hangs in root something part [15:29] ActionParsnip: ah ok [15:29] ActionParsnip: let me try real quick [15:29] markolonius: make some sample data to play first [15:29] n0gear: any error message when it hangs? [15:29] markolonius: then let it rip on the real data [15:29] Mike_lifeguard: both are connected throug wifi i want to transferfiles from pc to lappy [15:29] n0gear: have you tried typing though it in the boot console? [15:30] markolonius: or create a copy of the data so you can do whatever you want and can rolback if it goes wrong [15:30] markolonius: find -exec is hugely powerful [15:30] ActionParsnip: see i am using this find . -name *.ape -exec convtoflac.sh {} [15:30] boss_mc: typing what??? [15:30] ActionParsnip: and it keeps saying missing argument for -exce [15:30] n0gear: from the grub menu, press c for a command line [15:30] markolonius: sounds fine, does the script create an output file based on the input filename? [15:30] and type out each of those lines in order [15:31] look for errors [15:31] anyone? [15:31] I want an youtube downloader for ubuntu8.10 [15:31] anyone suggest me [15:31] boss_mc: ok. But should i have something root=XXXX after kernel image? [15:31] markolonius: find . -name *.ape -exec convtoflac.sh {} \; [15:31] markolonius: i forgot to end it with \; [15:31] hi all. Can anybody help me? parted and parted_server hangs up my system (no mouse actions), but GParted works. Can I install Ubuntu with GParted only? [15:31] ActionParsnip: aha! works! [15:32] ActionParsnip: thank you soooo much! [15:32] n0gear: yes, I think so [15:32] markolonius: its always something small ;) [15:32] hi people! any irc channels for virtualbox? or can I ask the related questions here? :) [15:32] ActionParsnip: yeah i know. lol one little detail [15:32] markolonius: you could even put THAT command in a script [15:32] Morning people [15:32] progre55, #vbox [15:32] ActionParsnip: i actually might haha [15:32] n0gear: I do, I'm not sure if it's needed, update-grub adds root=/dev/sd?, or root= [15:32] bazhang, thanks! [15:32] markolonius: that sort of thing is why i use cli so much [15:33] progre55, here is okay as well (if anyone knows) [15:33] ActionParsnip: whats cli? [15:33] !cli | markolonius [15:33] markolonius: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [15:33] can anyone help me with my problem? (c/p the thing is that i can't run chess in 3d because it shows the message to install python drivers. i have did it and set 3D in the game but when i try to run it, it just opens the "outline" of the window and instantly closes, so i can't even run it in 2d now) [15:33] Padhu: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/downloadextract-audio-from-youtube-videos-using-utube-ripper-in-ubuntu.html [15:33] can anyone tell me a good firewall for the new kubuntu 9.04 i386? [15:33] Padhu, youtube-dl [15:33] proz0r: have you installed video drivers? [15:33] !ufw | topramen [15:33] topramen: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist [15:33] I have ubuntu, but have installed winXP on a virtualbox. How would I transfer files from my ubuntu to windows? [15:33] !firewall | topramen [15:34] Mike_lifeguard: actually my menu.lst was *ucked so i made a new one from scratch. Do i need to update it somehow? Maybe thats the reason it wont boot??? [15:34] bazhag : synaptic have it? [15:34] topramen, firestarter, gufw [15:34] how do I change my kde theme to gtk-qt-style in jaunty? [15:34] very cool well thanks ActionParsnip! appreciate it [15:34] I mean for the kde3 apps [15:34] progre55: you can set drives in widows to be folders on the host [15:34] n0gear: I'd let it automatically create one for you... back that one up then there's some command for that... let's see... [15:34] progre55: you can then copy the files to and from those folders and they will be accessible [15:34] markolonius: np bro [15:35] n0gear: sudo update-grub looks like [15:35] ActionParsnip, what do you mean, set drives? how to do that? and sorry for noobic questions :) [15:35] ActionParsnip: i have no idea how, i thought they were already installed [15:35] ok i'll try that and see what happens [15:35] when I transfer large files to my external hardrive it fails. How can I transfer 4+ gig files to an external harddrive? [15:35] maynards-girl: fails in what way? [15:36] mike_lifegaurd, it fails with an error like "cannot transfer file because it's too large" [15:36] in general what is the command to launch the kde4 control center [15:37] maynards-girl, type of file system? [15:37] maynards-girl, in external hardrive? [15:37] Mike_lifeguard: No Grub directory found :( [15:38] peppeq, how do i find out what it is? [15:38] eep [15:38] Mike_lifeguard: im on live cd [15:38] which repository should i add for iotop ? http://guichaz.free.fr/iotop/ [15:38] proz0r: you dont install drives, you set them up in the settings for the virtualbox [15:38] i cant find my external hdd, its an S-ata connected to an hdd-external case, and when i plug it in i does not get it to work, do i have to reboot the computer? [15:38] proz0r: they will then be available once yuo bot the box [15:38] n0gear: try grub-install instead?

If so, you can make a menu.lst from that info [15:40] progre55: look at the settings of your virtualbox, you can set stuff there [15:41] nwm it found now!

I have successfully used make-kpkg to create my own .deb packages and run them, but somehow make-kpkg refuses to cooperate with git bisect. The only way around it I've found is a make-kpkg clean in between compiles, but that means every single compile of the bisect takes ages. There has to be a better way to do this! (I hope?) [16:00] linf, no chatting here [16:00] sasori2501: I don't know what version you mean by that... 2.6.30 was just released, so the version before that is 2.6.29, but that's not a jaunty kernel. Do you mean 2.6.13? That's the jaunty-proposed kernel, I think. Or maybe you mean 2.6.11, which is the stock jaunty kernel?

[16:04] tumii, then no [16:04] topramen: you'd be better asking in #kubuntu [16:04] ActionParsnip: Ok, so which one should i use? btw mine is jaunty, not hardy [16:04] dang [16:04] proz0r: xorg.conf is always the same [16:04] sasori2501: you should be able to install it like any other package in synaptic -- do you know how to choose what version of a package to install using synaptic? [16:05] proz0r: theres some snippets here yuo can use:http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Intel_GMA [16:05] Mike_lifeguard: no, actually im not sure how to do that, sorry :( [16:06] sasori2501: ok, so open synaptic... [16:06] Can Ubuntu x86-64 run 32-bit code? [16:06] tumii, yes [16:06] Is there a way to customize notify-osd? [16:06] ActionParsnip: so i just gotta modify the device section so it looks like this [16:06] ... [16:06] Section "Device" [16:06] Identifier "My Intel Video Card" [16:06] Driver "intel" [16:06] EndSection [16:06] proz0r: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [16:06] ugufjhfj: Both 32-bit and 64? [16:06] yes [16:06] ok [16:06] sasori2501: and find the package called 'linux-image-generic' [16:06] thanks [16:07] you need some package [16:07] is packages.ubuntu.com down? [16:07] can anyone confirm if http://keyserver.ubuntu.com is down? or is it just me? [16:07] Is there a way in gnome to stop apps claiming the foreground/focus? Instead flashing in the task bar, pref [16:07] Where can I get x86-64 version of Ubuntu? [16:07] djiezes, Incarus: all kinds of crap is down [16:07] Mike_lifeguard, k, thx [16:08] Mike_lifeguard: ok, thx [16:08] tumii, ubuntu.com [16:08] tumii, before downloading you can select which version you want [16:08] tumii, www.ubuntu.com [16:08] sasori2501: with me so far? [16:08] Mike_lifeguard: actually, i cant get it to open... it just hangs... ARGH! ok, well after i do that what should i do next?? [16:08] bazhang: Where there you can select the x86-64 version? [16:08] where can i download ubuntu (deb) packages instead of packages.ubuntu.com? (a mirror maybe) [16:08] tumii, yes, and iso or torrent of iso as well [16:09] you would ask it to force version (Package>Force version) and choose 2.6.28.11.15 (jaunty) [16:09] proz0r: if you changethe identifier, you must change the identifier in the screen section [16:09] sasori2501: then install and boot into that kernel [16:09] try nohup [16:09] bazhang: Where can I get the ISO? I can't find it :/ [16:10] tumii, just a second [16:10] bazhang: Thanks [16:10] JC_Denton_: i think the way is go to preference > windows to edit some thing to change the focus thins , anyone ideas? [16:10] tumii: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download (?) [16:10] Incarus: And where can I select the x86-64? [16:11] ActionParsnip: i'm checking the 3d performance section and i'm lost, i have no idea what should i do [16:11] tumii, scroll down [16:11] tumii, 32 bit and 64 bit [16:11] There's only 32-bit and 64-bit, and no x86-64 afaik [16:11] http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download tumii select dl mirror and the version you want [16:11] bazhang: There is still not the x86-64 version [16:11] tumii, 64 bit should be the right [16:11] proz0r: i'm in a big chat in lubuntu, websearch round. there wil be sample xorg.confs for you to pinch bits from [16:11] tumii, that is 64bit [16:12] tumii, 64 x86 processor 64 bit or something XD [16:12] hi, im trying to turn an avi file into an mpg and when i use ffmpeg i get the error 'unknown encoder: mpeg2video' [16:12] Incarus, I have tested and tried to install Flash player i386 version and it said can't install on that 64-bit version [16:12] Incarus, and my processor is AMD Athlon 64 4000+, x86-64 [16:12] install the 64bit flash then [16:12] Incarus: keyserver is up again, maybe packages too :) [16:12] djiezes, k, thx [16:12] hi, im trying to turn an avi file into an mpg and when i use ffmpeg i get the error 'unknown encoder: mpeg2video' [16:13] I think I'll just stay on 32-bit [16:13] jeremy_, www.media-convert.com [16:13] wizz: thanks but it's not to be found in that options dialog [16:13] hi all... can anyone help me, ive just booted up the Kubuntu live dvd and it looks great, but for some reason the computer wont render text correctly... its almost unreadable [16:13] tumii, 32 bit should also work on amd 64 i think === jeremy_ is now known as jeremy [16:13] how to edit dsniff conf file? [16:13] incarus: im doing it through command line and the file is over a gigabyte big. media convert is not gonna do it. [16:13] furu, whats your current screen resolution [16:13] Incarus, I am already running 32-bit Ubuntu but I asked if there were a x86-64 version [16:13] jeremy, ok. dont know [16:13] incarnus 1400x900 but its not a dvi cable [16:14] but a lcd [16:14] how to edit dsniff conf file?nid to conf my interface [16:14] tumii, the architecture is called x86_64. People call it amd64 after the maker who created it. Intel's 64 bit, called EMT64 is binary compatable with AMD64. It is all 64 bit, just download the 64 bit cd [16:14] furu, and which version of kubuntu? [16:14] 7 [16:14] furu, download the new 9.04 live kubuntu cd, and it will work [16:15] mdm, but that version is still not compatible with 32-bit code? [16:15] tumii, you can use 64 bit flash player [16:15] oh sorry it is 9.04 i was thinking of linux mint 7 because thats what i have on my other computer [16:15] Incarus, that is not the only one [16:15] hi d00ds. Is there a linuxsupport-chan for squeezebox on irc? [16:15] furu, ok [16:15] it is the newest downloadable [16:15] tumii, have you got problems with 32 bit version? [16:16] Incarus, nope [16:16] tumii, no you can not run 64 bit apps on a 32 bit OS, the alternative you can do. And anyone who has a x86_64 still runs 32 bit calls [16:16] furu, k dont know, ask again [16:16] incarus it is a ATI radeon 7000 card [16:16] : sry , i kinda answer ur question without tested it 1st , sry , i think it is in compiz config > genral options > focus & raise behavior [16:16] tumii, so you can use 32 bit, or? [16:16] tumii, its calld a CISC processor, or in laymans terms never thow any op code out, pack rat your cpu [16:16] or does anybody here have experience using ubuntu 9.04 with squeezebox? I have a few questions.. :s [16:16] Incarus: Yes but thought if there were a x86_64 version [16:16] !ask cmyrland [16:16] Sorry, I don't know anything about ask cmyrland [16:17] !ask | cmyrland [16:17] cmyrland: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [16:17] tumii, there is Linux torg 2.6.24-23-server #1 SMP Wed Apr 1 22:14:30 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux [16:17] tumii, there is a 64 bit ubuntu [16:17] mdm, so, if I install that 64-version will it run 32-bit apps? ex. Flash player 32-bit? If there were a x86_64 version it could run both 32-bit and 64 bit versions? [16:17] Mike_lifeguard: i cant find it, all i get is a restricted modules come up with those numbers [16:17] What's up with the Ubuntu Site? Bugtracker is broken.. [16:17] My system seems awfully slow! [16:17] Incarus, I know and I have the DVD already burned of 64-bit [16:18] What can I do? [16:18] humbolt, maybe you're just amazingly fast! [16:18] yap , i also cant go ubuntu site , it says database what i forgot d .. [16:18] humbolt, and how long is a piece of string? [16:18] Where should I report the bug that the bugtracker doesn't work? Can't in the app itself due to Catch-22 [16:18] humbolt, paste "ps -u root" [16:18] can someone please tell me how to reposition the menu bar its on the right side of the screen and i want it back on the top [16:18] DMA is enabled but disk IO is horrible [16:18] sasori2501: you have to search by package name, not version -- searching for 'linux' will normally give you good results [16:18] tumii, it depends on the app. As for flash I believe they have two differnt versions. Ubutu will not let you install the deb for one. But you can still compile 32 bit code (in fact MOST of the stuff is still 32 bit anyway) [16:18] guys.. I have setup a crontab '*/30 * * * * cd /home/anil/planet/current && rake utils:populate_feeds' [16:18] tumii, k [16:18] but it does not run [16:18] Ok, good to know. Not only me then, thanks wizz [16:18] can someone please tell me how to reposition the menu bar its on the right side of the screen and i want it back on the top [16:18] hello, recently gnome applets are dieing when the system is restarted. They run fine otherwise. What may be the problem? [16:19] I am using jaunty [16:19] can someone please tell me how to reposition the menu bar its on the right side of the screen and i want it back on the top [16:19] is there any way to test crontab [16:19] hi, im trying to turn an avi file into an mpg and when i use ffmpeg i get the error 'unknown encoder: mpeg2video' [16:19] !repeat | micah [16:19] micah: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. [16:19] !repeat | micah [16:19] micah, gnome or kde? [16:19] mdm, but if there is 32 AND 64 bit versions for an application, x86_64 version could run BOTH? [16:19] mdm, or normal 64? [16:19] micah, on gnome, right click on the taskbar and select properties, in orientation, select "Top" [16:19] dont know what gnome or kde is [16:19] Mike_lifeguard: that search gave me no kernall results unfortunatley [16:19] welcome , haha , [16:19] micah, they are desktop enviroments [16:19] Incarus: I'll paste in a second. First have to wait for firefox to start up [16:19] tumii, why you want to use 64 bit instead of 32 bit? [16:20] thank you very much crashanddie [16:20] humbolt, ok [16:20] tumii, no if you run 64 bit code calls on a 32 bit cpu it will fault the CPU and a x64_64 is not a true 64 bit CPU, its a 32 bit CPU with some 64 bit calls === kb is now known as Guest79773 [16:20] Incarus: http://pastie.org/527165 [16:20] sasori2501: try linux-image? [16:20] wizz: thanks. Not running compiz though I'm afraid. No need for sryness :) [16:20] Mike_lifeguard, btw, that !repeat statement is extremely badly worded... [16:20] err x86_64 [16:20] hi.. i have a question reltaed to IDEs and tools that i may use to build a medium size website.. using php, mysql, perl.. anyone able to help pls? [16:20] Incarus: I just reformatted /home with ext4 to improve things. [16:20] humbolt, i am in opera with integrated irc client ;-) [16:20] humbolt, k [16:20] mdm, My processor is 64-bit, AMD Athlon 64 4000+, afaik it is the x86_64 architecture [16:20] tumii, 64 bit does not make it faster, it does not make it better, it just makes it bigger [16:20] mikebl: I recommend python over php [16:20] mikebl, not the right channel, try ##php or something [16:21] Incarus: while / is still ext3 [16:21] mdm, oh well thhen [16:21] JC_Denton_, oh please [16:21] I'll just stick on 32-bit [16:21] the new themes os ubuntu are excelent [16:21] jeremy, I'd guess the version of ffmpeg you have doesn't have mpeg-2 support built in. Could be a licensing issue where the packager omitted that geature due to legal reasons. [16:21] mdm, bigger? [16:21] ok.. i'll check related channels, just one thing, why would prefer python instead of php? [16:21] crashanddie: open to your viewpoint [16:21] tumii, I didnt think you had a 64 bit cpu, they are all risc chips. The thing linux and windows people CALL a 64 bit cpu is in fact x96_64 [16:21] JC_Denton_, not right channel [16:21] humbolt, did you try to eject your usb devices? [16:22] Hello guys i am having some problems... [16:22] I have in total 4 HDD's... [16:22] !enter | TriMe [16:22] TriMe: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [16:22] crashanddie: apparently yes... wanna fix it? :D [16:22] hi all... can anyone help me, ive just booted up the Kubuntu live dvd and it looks great, but for some reason the computer wont render text correctly... its almost unreadable, im using kubuntu 9.04 and its a ati radeon 7000 card, lcd screen with vga cable [16:22] mdm; well okay then [16:22] Incarus: why should that help? [16:22] sasori2501: any luck finding the package? [16:22] crashanddie, yes as in can access bigger pipers, more memoery, bigger files. There are some 64 computation calls, but for the most part its just about learger address spaces (e.g more then 4G of memory without pae) [16:22] mdm: I'm gonna stick with my current version [16:22] humbolt, dont know [16:22] humbolt, "sudo kill 3080" [16:23] mikebl you can also check out the asp.net support offered by mono [16:23] hi. is there a file somewhere that reflects the output of dpkg -l? i'm restoring from a backup, and would like to determine which packages were installed. [16:23] I Have 4 Hdd's and I Formated one in ubuntu to EXT4 and i cant see it in Computer:/// is there something i am doing wrong??? [16:23] mdm, > 4gig used to be an argument before PAE as you pointed out, now it's really about being able to do native computations on bigger ints and floats [16:23] JC_Denton_: i think i cant help u , haha [16:23] TriMe, which os / version? === cthulhu is now known as Guest21231 [16:23] !clone | lunaphyte [16:23] lunaphyte: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate [16:23] !gnome-applets [16:23] Sorry, I don't know anything about gnome-applets [16:23] Mike_lifeguard, how do I change it? [16:23] mikebl, if you're going to create a simply CRUD-website (like a blog or similar), then I'd recommend checking out Ruby on rails. [16:23] 9.04 [16:24] Incarus: wow, stopping that service does generate quite some IO wail! [16:24] crud? [16:24] yeah what's that supposed to mean? =) [16:24] humbolt, did it speed up your system? [16:24] crashanddie: !no, repeat is ...whatever you want it to be... [16:24] Incarus: yes [16:24] Incarus, i have ubuntu 9.04 [16:24] crashanddie: the ops will (maybe eventually a few years from now) approve your change or not [16:24] Create Read Update Delete, the typical operations of 99% of all websites out there [16:24] humbolt, ok, thats the mysql server demon, you can remove it from system [16:24] Mike_lifeguard, fair enough [16:24] crashanddie, yes but again its abut bigger numers. Most commnly used numbers are small ints. So "most" of the 64 bit cpus get to pad 0's to "most" of the calls [16:25] Incarus: so what is happening there with my mysql daemon? running out of disk space? [16:25] TriMe, yes, and which kernel? [16:25] So Jaunty supposedly made a huge improvement in the cold-to-login boot time. But after I login, I now have a very long wait with a black screen before my desktop is usable. Kinda sneaky...or is this maybe a problem on my side that could be fixed? [16:25] Incarus: need it for dev [16:25] is there a problem with bugs.launchpad.net? [16:25] I cannot do a search [16:25] mdm: thanks - what if i can't do that though, ot generate the mypackages file? the computer is already dead - all i have is the backup. [16:25] mdm, not really, but meh, not feeling like arguing [16:25] humbolt, i dont know [16:25] MrKeuner, yeah, the site is fuubar. Not only the bug tracker.. You could file a report in the .... hmm.. no you can't :-) [16:25] !xchat [16:25] Sorry, I don't know anything about xchat [16:25] humbolt, mysql is a server, and server apps slow down your computer [16:26] !irc [16:26] A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines === The_Toxic_Mite_ is now known as The_Toxic_Mite [16:26] MrKeuner , server down [16:26] hola !!!!+ [16:26] Incarus, how do i know what kernel is it???

[16:28] lunaphyte, look at /var/lib/dpkg/status [16:28] Incarus: mounting encrypted disks does not work quite well [16:28] Gatto, hablo contigo en mensaje privado.

Jun 28 17:30:18 doroga kernel: [47622.680356] type=1503 audit(1246203018.390:14): operation="inode_create" requested_mask="a::" denied_mask="a::" fsuid=0 name="/home/mysql/doroga.lower-test" pid=1641 profile="/usr/sbin/mysqld" [16:32] newuser: #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es [16:32] humbolt, mysql is very disk intensive, it depends on what mysql is storing [16:32] mdm i am trying to tell gatto to take my private message and I will help him in spanish instead of using it in here. You are preaching to the choir. [16:32] Incarus, If my Partition IS :: /dev/sdb1 :: what would be the full command line in terminal???

[16:33] Incarus: mdm: but mysql is laying idle 99.99% of the time! [16:33] Hey guys I cant really use ubuntu 9.04 - directly after I install it and apply the fglrx driver through the driver manager- it wont boot. After grub, it just displays random pixels. I have an ati radeon hd4870 with dual displays. Can someone tell me what I need to do to fix this? The default driver does work- but it does not allow me to use any special effects, I assume it is basic software rasterization. [16:34] humbolt, then go run top and see what is using all the resources [16:34] humbolt, and whats about dos attacks? [16:34] ubotto:still same [16:34] Incarus: still stopping mysql helped, so it must be related to that! [16:34] its ddos not dos :) [16:35] I have decided ubuntu is awsume , i tired to install windows on a pc and i think the hard drive is messed up it said hard disk failure (unkown error) during the install , then i tryed arch and it couldnt create the filesystems in the installation , and then i tried ubuntu and its now running perfect [16:35] humbolt, mysql is a server app, maybe its slow because somebody send you a lot of requests, i dont know XD [16:35] or what another messenger can i use(my yahoo & gmail) [16:35] archer, you got lucky [16:35] Incarus: no this is just my private dev instance [16:35] Incarus: no traffic at all [16:36] but low disk space [16:36] humbolt, mysql is just a database, is not magic and it doesnt hide things from you [16:36] archer: nice its running well for you :) [16:36] Qu4R0w, kopete, or newer version of pidgin [16:36] why can I not run mysql when the datadir is symlinked from /var/lib/mysql [16:36] humbolt, apparmor [16:36] my pidgin is latest i think === cthulhu is now known as Guest97354 [16:37] humbolt: permissions would be the most obvious first guess for me === Guest97354 is now known as Kvankam [16:37] Qu4R0w, i am using 2.5.7 from ubuntu karmic [16:37] Qu4R0w: Check your 'About' pidgin.

[16:39] Mike_lifeguard, you download the packages not directly from ubuntu.com, but whats the url of the server? [16:39] Incarus: Mike_lifeguard you can use another server though [16:39] Mike_lifeguard, of the mirror server [16:40] I just installed intrepid on an HP pavillion, and when I turn on the wireless card, the bluetooth is enabled (even though it doesn't really have bluetooth capabilities), and the wireless nic doesn't show up in ifconfig [16:40] guntbert, do you know the url of some of these packages mirror servers? [16:40] Hey guys I cant really use ubuntu 9.04 - directly after I install it and apply the fglrx driver through the driver manager- it wont boot. After grub, it just displays random pixels. I have an ati radeon hd4870 with dual displays. Can someone tell me what I need to do to fix this? The default driver does work- but it does not allow me to use any special effects, I assume it is basic software rasterization. [16:41] Monkier: you cant even start X after upgrading drivers? [16:41] Monkier, boot and press ctrl+alt+F1 [16:41] Incarus: I just go to system/administration/software sources and choose another one from the list [16:41] are the forums down? [16:41] hi, i'm trying to use teamspeak but i've no sound, anybody can help me? [16:41] riegersn: http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ubuntuforums.org [16:41] Legend2440 i dont know what X is. [16:41] Monkier: are you using the closed source or open source ati drivers [16:41] guntbert, i am under jaunty and want to download some karmic packages manually [16:41] There are open source drivers for the radeon cards? [16:41] Incarus: you can't do that [16:41] Monkier: do you see Desktop? [16:42] No legend2440. [16:42] !karmic | Incarus [16:42] Incarus: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [16:42] Incarus: the dependencies will not match [16:42] ikonia, i can, but packages. ubuntu.com is down [16:42] Monkier: not sure which versions support which cards [16:42] Incarus: your dependencies will break [16:42] is ubuntuforums down ? [16:42] ikonia, it depends on what you will download [16:42] sandhya: http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ubuntuforums.org [16:42] sandhya, yes [16:42] sandhya, yes [16:42] sandhya: it appears that multiple ubuntu sites are having a problem [16:42] Ubcarus what does ctrl+alt+f1 do? [16:43] mobi-sheep, a simple yes will suffice thanks [16:43] Incarus* [16:43] bazhang: Roger. [16:43] Monkier, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver [16:43] Monkier, lol, thats the combination for the console [16:43] what is the command to see what video card I have installed and the memory it has for that card? etc. 128 256 mb ect [16:43] Monkier, looks like the opensource radeon driver only support 2D at the moment for your card. [16:43] tnx guys ... [16:43] i not know how to check..i am newbie [16:44] hey can anyone here help me with some sound issues on my laptop [16:44] sandhya::just ask [16:44] deany that is probably the default driver then. [16:44] cool [16:44] I am new [16:44] sandhya, "alsamixer" [16:44] How can I tell if my wireless card supports 802.11n? [16:44] hello can anyone tell me the chmod and chown of dbus-daemon-launch-helper ? I messed up with it and need to config it to the right one. Thank you very much. [16:45] lspci shows [16:45] 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) [16:45] Incarus: the servers for karmic are essentially the same as for jaunty, but the repos are different (not all of them) - but as ikonia said: thats definitely not supported [16:45] 01:05.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RS780 Azalia controller [16:45] Incarus, yup alsa ... [16:45] cant get it to install [16:45] guntbert, you dont really understand what i mean ;-) [16:45] predictable, that depends on the video card and its hardware. Generally you need a vendor tool to see (things like nvidia-settings) [16:46] testing irc client [16:46] sandhya, enter "alsamixer" and turn volume up ;-) [16:46] Are nvidia drivers open source? [16:46] Monkier: No. [16:46] Monkier: Not unless you use the open source ones, which don't give any 2D acceleration. [16:46] Incarus, how i wish that works :-) [16:46] sandhya: this is a good guide to get sound working http://www.ubuntugeek.com/simple-guide-to-sound-solutions-for-hardyintrepid-and-jaunty-jackalope-users.html [16:46] or any access to the underlying hardware (e.g. CUDA, VDPAU) [16:46] can someone give me a hint where i can find the file where the music file list of the gnome-do plugin rhythmbox can be found? [16:46] Incarus, alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory [16:47] Monkier, there is a nvidia open source driver, its experimental at best. Nvidia provides binary drivers however [16:47] Incarus: maybe so, but you keep talking about using packages meant for another release - so be warned, it *might* break your system [16:47] i need to delete them, because several songs are 4-5 times duplicate... [16:47] Incarus::kopete also cant help [16:47] guntbert, i know [16:47] Incarus: you can do it, but it's not supported and could go horriby awry [16:47] maybe my box unable to chat [16:47] Incarus: :) [16:47] Incarus: so don't do it unless you know how to recover from things breaking [16:47] guntbert, i did install pidgin 2.5.7, but i need some more packages (4) and servers are down [16:47] LadyNikon: guntbert [16:47] Well, the flgrx driver does work on 8.10, I guess i'll just stick witht hat. [16:47] already try with pidgin and kopete [16:47] tab completion fail... [16:48] Mike_lifeguard, it did work, i just need 4 more packages [16:48] Monkier: What hardware do you have? [16:48] Incarus: K, so... go fer it? What help do you need with that? [16:48] radeon hd3870, intel q6600, asus motherboard [16:48] hd4870 i mean [16:48] Monkier: So why would you care about Nvidia's drivers? [16:48] Mike_lifeguard, none, i just wait for packages.ubuntu.com [16:49] Incarus: might have issues - lots of server issues today [16:49] well, if nvidia had open source drivers id be more likely to get an nvidia card next time [16:49] mdm: thanks, that's perfect. [16:49] I try to install something and get this "Building modules for the 2.6.28-13-generic kernel, please wait..." [16:49] so i wouldnt have to deal with this [16:49] mdm: radeon is the card [16:49] always ... [16:49] Monkier, pls press "CTRL+ALT+F1" after boot process [16:49] What does that do Incarus? [16:49] FYI, folks: keyserver (at least) is back up [16:49] I'm trying to setup fetchmail to grab email from gmail [16:49] anyone had luck with that? [16:49] Monkier, open a console [16:50] Monkier: Their drivers are closed-source but I've found they are much better than ATI's in terms of not-breaking. [16:50] can somebody help me with Teamspeak under ubuntu? [16:50] Monkier, finish? [16:50] i cant chat..pidgin,empathy,kopete,bitlee=not work & not help [16:50] Okay. What do I do once i'm in the console then? [16:50] I can help with teamspeak [16:50] Monkier: CUDA and VDPAU are also available, and they are handy for some things, but ATI currently has no equivalent for Linux [16:50] teamspeak has a native installer for ubuntu [16:50] carcar1: i've no sound [16:50] ahhhh [16:50] Qu4R0w, maybe the windows software under wine would work... [16:50] saliak, I am currently doing it to backup my mail. What's your specific problem? [16:51] Forums still look down though [16:51] hi there ... i got problems with javafx (jnlp + "applet") since jaunty ... can someone try starting an javafx programm on jaunty ? http://javafx.com/docs/articles/controls/ [16:51] Monkier, login and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure Xorg" [16:51] basically,i not think i will use "winshit" program again [16:51] carcar1: what can i do? [16:51] Qu4R0w, please no swearing [16:51] Will that reset my xorg.conf? [16:51] Let em look this up for you [16:52] bazhang, lol === cthulhu is now known as Guest46284 [16:52] Monkier, also [16:52] Incarus, not kidding [16:52] what sound format are you using alsa, oss or pulseaudio or esound?

[16:53] I switched out a 7000 radeon to a 7200 radeon and everything is laggy now. Do I need to reconfiger xserver.org? [16:53] predictable, paste "glxinfo" [16:53] please no..i dun think all my account has been banned [16:54] K ill go do that, brb. [16:54] Qu4R0w, k [16:54] predictable, assuming fglrx was working before you changed the hardware, no it uses the same driver [16:54] Does anyone know a program that acts as a DNS "server" but just replies the same IP address to every query?

[17:04] incarus: how did it start running after I switched video cards? [17:04] predictable, "sudo killall cron", "sudo killall anacron" "sudo killall apt" [17:04] LekisS: so, you will want to use manual when you get the the point in the installer where you partition the drive [17:04] Mike_lifeguard: I have 1gb ram... Also, I'd like to know if I should do a /tmp partition [17:04] hey, can anyone tell me how to disable an area of my touchpad in 9.0.4? [17:04] predictable, automatically [17:04] predictable, it is suposed be the same catalist driver. You can try reinstalling. But the fact its slower, while not intuative, does not supprise me [17:05] edi_x_1, yes, with "gsynaptics" [17:05] LekisS: nah, I don't think that's really useful [17:05] I need some help here with my new ubuntu setup. [17:05] predictable: you can uninstall apt if you really want to though [17:05] LekisS: k, so do 3GB for swap [17:05] Incarus: i got that but couldn't see an option [17:05] LekisS: Have you decided whether you want to use ext3 or ext4? [17:05] Incarus, how ?/ [17:05] Mike_lifeguard: okay ;) So 20gb for /, 3gb for swap and the rest for /home ? is that it ? [17:05] incarus: but was apt running b4 I switched video cards? if so it never slowed me down b4 [17:05] i used the add/remove programs to get it though, is there a newer version somewhere else? [17:05] LekisS: yep, other than choosing the filesystem for / and /home [17:06] Mike_lifeguard: I don't even know the differences :D [17:06] edi_x_1, do you want to disable the touchpad or just a area of the touchpad [17:06] incarus: and my synaptic is not up nor am I downloading anything from apt-get ect. if thats the same .. [17:06] Mike_lifeguard: I mean with ext3/ext4 [17:06] Incarus: an area of it [17:06] http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/.....this link will help [17:06] predictable, did you enter the commands?

Thats all fine. However, because the max size is that small, my moitors can't be "right-of" or "left-of" each other, I have to have X think they are on top of each other (which works). Is there a way to make it so when my mouse goes off the right of the screen it gets pushed to the other monitor even though it is "top- [17:06] of"? [17:06] incarus: do I do it one at a time? [17:06] execute the 2 commands in http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/ [17:06] LekisS: ext3 is the default - very stable, well supported etc... ext4 is the new version that should have some good performance benefits, but as it is new it's less well supported (but it is stable) [17:07] predictable, no [17:07] predictable, several commands [17:07] !ext4 [17:07] Sorry, I don't know anything about ext4 [17:07] and then in synaptics you'll find PPa in origins [17:07] :O [17:07] any advantage to upgrading nvidia driver 180 to 185? [17:07] Mike_lifeguard: you think I should be using ext4 ? or not ? [17:07] and there pidgin upgrade [17:07] was quite helpful [17:07] how do i get skype to work? [17:07] or getdeb.net will also help [17:07] incarus: I pasted what u said I get : bash: sudo killall cron,: command not found [17:07] predictable, yes [17:07] predictable, yes [17:07] ba bye [17:07] c ya [17:07] prospire: random tip, usually your messages will be noticed more easily if you start them with the recipient's nick. [17:07] predictable, one at a time, sry [17:07] grawity: didn get u [17:08] LekisS: up to you... I've been saying for a while that ext4 isn't ready, but I've switched my / partition to ext4 now and I'll be switching /home soon too... a bunch of fixes have been implemented for little things, so I'd say it's ready to use now, yes [17:08] Incarus: ok, is there somewhere i could find some information about that? [17:08] anybody's here [17:08] my encrypted disk is not mounted after unlocking it [17:08] haanuj: yes [17:08] incarus: ok done.. [17:08] Mike_lifeguard: okay ;) thank you very much :) [17:08] LekisS: For example, my boot time was cut by about 30% because /boot is ext4 for me now [17:08] edi_x_1, yeah, wait [17:09] edi_x_1, http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Touchpad [17:09] predictable, and? faster? [17:09] Mike_lifeguard: ho okay... I see why ext4 is useful ^^ thanks ! [17:09] no problem [17:09] incarus: nope [17:09] Incarus: awesome, thanks!

(& how would I do that?) ... and same for apache, if possible [17:13] Johnny_5, and then run the right command in console to start it [17:13] Howdy folks. I'm having problems running ubuntu 9.04. After I install the ati radeon fglrx drivers for my radeon hd4870, I am unable to boot. After grub, it just displays random pixels. I have a dual display setup. The defauly driver (one that comes upon install) does work, but does not support 3d acceleration, so my desktop is just software rasterized, and I cant use any 3d apps. I went into recovery mode, used both repair broken p [17:13] fix most display problems. I then used sudo dpkg-reconfigure Xorg, I then used a live cd to delete my xorg.conf, and nothing has worked. Can anyone help me out? [17:13] k [17:13] Monkier, did you delete the xorg.conf after you made it?: [17:14] Mike_lifeguard, i think cron do autostart it, you could disable the lines in cron and then make a script ;-) [17:14] danke [17:14] Incarus: no, it's not started by cron, I think [17:14] Monkier, did it work? [17:14] Johnny_5, np [17:14] Actually I had that out of sequence- I did the thing where I deleted it with a live cd yesterday- i just now used that command. I'm not sure. [17:14] Mike_lifeguard, cron system [17:14] does anyone know where I can find help on the "Authorizations"/policykit feature in Ubuntu? All I can find is the man page, which doesn't help with the GUI [17:14] Mike_lifeguard, I think XD [17:14] hey there... anybody here who does successfully run the AVM Fritz WLAN USB Stick N with ndiswrapper? [17:14] Nope incarus, it didnt, but i'm not certain I did everything in the right sequence. [17:15] Incarus: what do you mean "cron system"? [17:15] dmesg gives this output: http://nopaste.info/41a7504dcd.html [17:15] hi [17:15] Let me rephrase my question: I have triple boot with Ubuntu, OS X, and Winblows Vista. All 64-bit. I need one partition which is writable/readable from all three. I curently use NTFS partition for that, but FF and Transmision in OS X won't downlowd files onto NTFS drive, so I found Mac Drive for windows, and thinking to change data partition to HFS+. So question is: Can Ubuntu use HFS+ as... [17:15] I've created a truecrypt volume under linux, now if I'm trying to mount it in Win Vista it says: Should i format this volume! Any ideas? [17:15] ...home? I know it can read/write... forum is down so i ask here :-) [17:15] Mike_lifeguard, cron do start normal user things and root things, the root things you cant see in the kde controle center ;-) [17:16] Incarus - I tried both ctrl+alt+f1 and ctrl+alt+f11 ( couldnt remember which one you told me, didnt write it down ), and console didnt come up, so I went into recovery mode, and used the root console there to enter the command. I then rebooted, and it did the same thing it did before, so that is what I am at now. [17:16] Incarus: well, I use gnome, and I checked root's crontab and it's not there, so I'm pretty sure it's not being started by cron [17:16] blck, not an ubuntu problem [17:16] *sigh* [17:16] Monkier , k [17:17] Mike_lifeguard, k [17:17] Mike_lifeguard, i dont know [17:17] blck: if you created it in Linux, it probably uses the ext3 filesystem, which Windows does not support. You'll have to either reboot into Linux, backup the data, recreate the volume and restore data -- or install the Windows driver from fs-driver.org, which (from my experience) doesn't appear very stable. [17:17] Monkier: i would try letting envy install the drivers. ati can be a pain but envy always worked for me [17:17] is it hard to get awn-curves working ? [17:17] I know, let me ask it another way: Does truecrypt creates ntfs partitions or my it create also ext 3 problems [17:17] grawity: Thanks [17:17] miki, yes hfs and hfsplus [17:17] legend2440 What is envy and how do I use it? [17:17] hi. my friend have a problem about sounds in ubuntu 9.04. He said he can't listen any sounds. Sounds is properly working in his xp. what shall I do? [17:17] grwaity, truecrypt is a software under linux and windows, not a special type of partition [17:17] Incarus: I know :D [17:18] Incarus: I KNOW. But it presents its volumes as virtual hard drives (like mount -o loop), and they can have any FS. [17:18] at prompt type sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk [17:18] grawity, ok [17:18] legend2440, use name [17:19] legend2440 beyond that is there anything else I need to do with it- or should I be able to reboot and start up in normal (non recovery) mode? [17:19] monkier you installed Gnome right? [17:19] Monkier, you should be able [17:19] Incarus: So on Linux, TrueCrypt, when doing its initial format/mkfs, probably chooses ext3. [17:19] I just installed intrepid on an HP pavillion, and when I turn on the wireless card, the bluetooth is enabled (even though it doesn't really have bluetooth capabilities), and the wireless nic doesn't show up in ifconfig [17:19] can someone tell me how to fix this pulseaudio prob? [17:19] Why are the ubuntu forums not working right now? [17:20] grawity, dont know, dont use truecrypt [17:20] http://pastebin.com/d3eb599d [17:20] legend2440 I didnt install it, no, but gnoem I believe is the one I am using yes. [17:20] grawity, can I see which fs type it has have used? [17:20] Monkier: well if you want to try envy then at prompt type sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk [17:20] Monkier, whats about failsafe? [17:20] because the fsdriver points that the volume is ntfs [17:20] anyone??? [17:21] blck: hmm, and Windows doesn't recognize it anyway? [17:21] Incarus What is failsafe? [17:21] blck: can you mount the volume on Linux, and then use the "df" command in Terminal? [17:21] Monkier, special graphical mode [17:21] lwells: no they're not, nobody knows why [17:21] Incarus Is it one of the options in the recovery mode, or in grub? [17:22] Monkier, should be in grub, but check both [17:22] mdm: Thanks for reply, but I know that. I ask can it be used natively, and is it better than NTFS in OS X? [17:22] grawity, well Windows regonize it, but always display "should i format it"! So i've got to change back to linux and see [17:22] thanks for help [17:22] ubuntuforums.org is down? [17:23] lslpp, yes [17:23] blck: if you can, create a new volume on Windows, then boot into Linux, and copy the data. [17:23] Incarus, thanks [17:23] hey installed phpbb3 and i am getting "Sorry but this board is currently unavailable" googling says to delete install folder i installed from repos so what would i be deleting [17:23] predictable, ??? [17:23] miki it can read and write to the filesystem. But since I do not have a mac box I can not tell you how it works long term. As far as I have seen it does work with no issues however [17:24] mdm, thanks [17:24] who got graphical problems? [17:25] Can someone tell me how fix this pulseaudio probs?> [17:25] http://pastebin.com/d3eb599d [17:25] Incarus, I don't know ... haven't seen an announcement [17:25] Okay, thanks guys.

[17:31] i don't need the screen really, just the command to restore X to a generic config [17:31] togetic, try "sudo kdm / gdm" or "sudo X / Xorg", if that wont work try "sudo xinit" [17:31] togetic, to restore xorg.conf settings type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure Xorg" [17:32] I just installed intrepid on an HP pavillion, and when I turn on the wireless card, the bluetooth is enabled (even though it doesn't really have bluetooth capabilities), and the wireless nic doesn't show up in ifconfig [17:32] togetic, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg [17:33] Good Evening, [17:33] madmike: have you tried Jaunty (the latest)?

You could try running the latest 2.6.30 kernel [19:43] the1corrupted: have you installed php5-cli [19:43] I've installed Kubuntu and decided to install GNOME instead. Now it appears compiz is the default window-manager. How do I change this so GNOME takes control and when I apply window-border themes, they actually work? [19:44] the1corrupted: you'd probably be better asking in #apache [19:44] lufis: hmm. I tried doing that recently on an older laptop for the graphics drivers and it seemed not to run as smooth. Is there anything in the newer kernel that would lead you to believe this? [19:44] Is there any application which can read the pictures from a A520 PowerShot not named gphoto2? [19:44] ActionParsnip: Yes, and #apache is down, and #httpd (the new apache channel) is idle. [19:44] sp0ckk: log off, set your session to GNOME and log in [19:45] isleshocky77: Well, new hardware support is added with every release.

[20:32] i hate dell myself [20:32] thats why i build my own [20:32] coucou [20:32] asanchez: Yes, but I'm thinking that for larger things (example I had in mind would be removing everything mono, just one example) and it would be possible that you just had a "nomono" package which (granted that ubuntu-desktop deps works out) does the task of removing all relevant packages, instead of removing all of them manually...

[20:40] edbian: no, i'm looking for one, do do the whole job for me :) [20:40] drdan: Then you have use larges continuous free space. The same as entire disk but now only free space that will be allocated [20:40] has the joystick handling changed in jaunty? when i reconnect my joystick it is mentioned by dmesg (http://paste.pocoo.org/show/125601/) but i don't get a js-device unter /dev/input/ [20:40] gabbah: Have you seen the download helper plugin? It has an option to download and convert. Essentially only 1 click (although it needs to be learned). [20:40] edbian: but it seems like there is none working.... so maybe i will have to write it myself, but i'm not so good at it :/ [20:41] Kjell: thx man [20:41] hey you guys, this is regular IRC right? [20:41] edbian: i have tried utubeRipper, if that is what u mean. it's broken in ubuntu 9.04 as i said... [20:42] Knotty_, yes, aka realtime notepad :) [20:42] somebody from chile? [20:42] gabbah: No, It is called "DownloadHelper" If you search that you will find it. It's icon is three different colored balls. (red yellow blue) [20:42] drdan: Anyway take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/installation-guide/i386/partition-sizing.html [20:42] Its'* [20:42] oh man, i've run into a wall over here. anyone wanna help me trouble-shoot an install??

[20:45] very well in fact [20:45] gabbah: You can set up downloadhelper so that it puts an icon near anything that you can download with it. It opens a dropdown menu and gives you the option to download, download + convert, a couple others. And then you can choose what to convert it to. It uses ffmpeg as the back end [20:45] edbian -> yeah still here. comp had a hickup for a second [20:45] bastidrazor: thx man [20:45] mikael Not ubuntu I hope :) [20:45] mikael: So what went wrong?

[20:45] theres prolly a list [20:45] I'm on Jaunty Jackalope and I need OpenGL 2.0, which the supported Free driver for my Radeon 200M card doesn't provide. How can I install the proprietary fglrx driver that provides the functionality I need? [20:46] edbian: i've installed ubu a million times. this one is a first. start the machine up, get to the install screen hit "install" and insta-freeze [20:46] drdan, like riding a bike. [20:46] edbian: sounds like exactly what my gf, meaning what I, need :) [20:46] ryanprior: install the package that contains fglrx and then "sudo modprobe fglrx" to insert it into the kernel (i.e. use it) [20:46] mikael, is it a new or different machine? Load BIOS defaults. [20:46] gabbah: Your girlfriend sounds very nice :) [20:46] bastidrazor: teach me this new bike riding :P [20:47] my USB webcam is not working plzzzz help me..

[20:48] gabbah: There is also the specialised https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/11047 [20:48] mikael: Try resetting the bios. I suspect though that there is faulty hardware somewhere in the system. Do you know how to turn off the quiet boot option??

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [20:49] darthanubis, isn't it a little combative to come back that way since Ubuntu really is made for the "everyman" ? :| [20:49] drdan, good manual for bash:: http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/bashref/index.html [20:49] ie; joe the plumber [20:49] ok kool [20:49] mikael: Try that and let me know how it goes.

[20:49] hola [20:49] d3bug, in your opinion. But I don't care about your opinion. Maybe you should google "How to ask a question" [20:49] i installed ubuntu on my laptop today and everything seems to be working fine except for the sound [20:50] ryanprior: Did that not work? Was there any output? [20:50] edbian: "cannot allocate memory" was the only output. [20:50] !sound > patels [20:50] patels, please see my private message [20:50] there is output but its messed up and really loud [20:50] darthanubis, maybe you should google "politeness" [20:50] ryanprior: What? Is this system overclocked? [20:50] d3bug, maybe you should mine your business? [20:50] behave children [20:51] darthanubis, is now ignored [20:51] i dont know how much is the capacity of my video card . can i install compiz fusion [20:51] edbian: Not over clocked. Just a laptop. [20:51] ? [20:51] whats the difference between a "quit message" and a "part message" [20:51] ryanprior: Ummm... Ok. You just reset the bios correct? [20:51] Knotty_: one is leaving the server, the other is just leaving the channel [20:51] ryanprior, what card do you have? [20:51] th0r, cute but all he had to do was what he did. [20:51] ryanprior: Does this have external video card? Or onboard? [20:51] oic. thanks linxeh [20:51] is there some real people I can get help from, no offence [20:51] edbian: It's an onboard Radeon 200m card. [20:52] nope patels. real people cant get this program [20:52] lol [20:52] only cyborgs and hippies [20:52] right [20:52] ryanprior: Are we sure that 200m is supported by fglrx?

[20:53] edbian: I started using fglrx in Edgy and have not had trouble with it until I upgraded to Jaunty and found out jocky-gtk no longer supports it for this card. [20:53] patels: there are many real people here but not everyone is good with "sound problems" [20:53] ryanprior: Well. I'm assuming that if the output of modprobe fglrx is "memory cannot be allocated" then fglrx will not work with your card. When the modprobe command works there is no output. Maybe google "radeon 200m + fglrx" or something IDK [20:54] drdan, https://help.ubuntu.com/community is probably the most helpful place for nearly all questions [20:54] ryanprior: Sorry dude. I don't think you're going to be able to get this to work. :( [20:54] darthanubis : my usb webcam is not working [20:55] edbian: from the Ubuntu forums: "Unfortunately with Jaunty it's the open source Radeon driver or bust. Using the last Catalyst before support was dropped won't work, because it doesn't work with the latest version of Xorg that Jaunty uses. ATI hath forsaken us." [20:55] Guess it's no more gaming for me until I buy a new laptop. >.> [20:55] ryanprior: You could use an older version of ubuntu. Or just an older kernel. [20:55] can anyone decipher these errors http://paste.ubuntu.com/205760/ [20:55] haanuj, mine does not work either. [20:56] Older version of Ubuntu would be the way to go, I guess. [20:56] not every piece of equipment will work [20:56] you deal with that [20:56] Screw ATI, jerks for killing support. [20:56] or buy a new cam [20:56] edbian: can you walk me through turning off silent boot when you get a free minute? [20:56] mikael I'm free now [20:56] Hello guys........ i am new to this chat.....

[20:57] shane2peru: try "sudo fix-my-problems-plz" [20:57] while it is working fine in windows xp.... [20:58] ha ha, I uninstalled something that broke my network [20:58] Try wpa_supplicant [20:58] See if you can use that to get it work correctly. [20:58] shane2peru: What did you uninstall? [20:58] I'm hardwired skype connects and firefox doesn't [20:58] mikael: When you start the Live CD you get that menu and on that menu it says "press F4 to select alternative start-up and installation modes" Is this correct? [20:58] hello, recently gnome applets are dieing when the system is restarted. They run fine otherwise. What may be the problem? [20:58] nick125, I really don't know, I cleaned up a bunch of stuff on my machine [20:58] edbian: yup [20:58] I had a bunch of installed stuff, left over config files, etc, [20:59] mikael. Can you do this while we talk? [20:59] shane2peru: check under the File menu. work offline might be checked but shouldn't [20:59] I used synaptics and removed a bunch of stuff, what boggles me is that skhype connects, but firefox doesn't [20:59] edbian: yup. on the install screen now [20:59] mikael Press F4 and it should dump you at the end of the kernel line. You will see "quiet" and probably "splash" maybe a couple other things. Coirrect? [20:59] s032082_, ahh, let me check that, I would feel really dumb if that is the case! [21:00] s032082_, nope, that isn't it. [21:00] edbian: there right now [21:00] hey guys, if i have a smb share in my server that i access from windows normally and now i want to access it from another ubuntu box, how do i configure that? is it through fstab?? [21:00] mikael: Delete the word :"quiet" Now the system will boot and it will show you everything it is doing. It goes very fast but if it hits an error it will stop. This error will hopefully help you troubleshoot farther [21:00] I think I must have somehow removed something that would be pertainent [21:00] Hello everyone, I was here yesterday when I created a 3 page tutorial in OOO Writer, that tells how to create a custom CD/DVD repository of only the apps you need and not the GBs of stuff you don't.

[21:43] sademac: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/hardy/release/ [21:44] Striking71: yes [21:44] ganymede, so you're trying to extract the "url in the url" ? [21:44] Pici: And thanks again, that worked out very nicely. [21:44] sademac: I have 8.04 PPC running on a G4 iMac (the one that looks like a lamp) [21:44] Guest84498: By no go, do you mean static or just no sound at all? [21:44] unop: yes, it's a redirect URL [21:44] I've just installed Ubuntu to hd0. I have an existing windows XP installation on sde1. How can I install grub to my windows xp drive so that I would be able to dual boot? [21:44] Guest84498: try playing some sound which gives you static and meanwhile goto terminal and run "tail -15 /var/log/user.log" [21:44] mdg: 8.04 will run fine, as far as I know.. the problem is with the open ati driver version 6.8 [21:45] sademac: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ - how to set things up [21:45] s032082_: last error is [21:45] pulseaudio[6041]: module.c: Failed to load module "module-x11-xsmp" (argument: ""): initialization failed. [21:45] Guest84498: do you see anything like "elite pulseaudio[4017]: alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_avail_update() returned a value..." ? [21:45] mdg: I'll give that a try, thanks. [21:45] /etc/init.d/powernowd is blank ? anyone ? [21:46] /etc/init.d/powernowd need example :( [21:46] s032082_: urm no i get that module-x11-xsmp wont load [21:46] Pici: that did it thanks! [21:46] xy_42: the cam is external or it's embedded on a laptop? and which ubuntu version are you using? [21:46] newbie002: you're welcome [21:46] * s032082_ checks for module-x11-xsmp [21:46] papapep: it is external. i am on 8.04.2 [21:47] Hey guys i need some help, I've got a desktop runnin jaunty, I plugged a usb hard disk formatted to ext3 into the system, Drive is ALWAYS able to be accessed from that system. But when left unattended, you will come back to find multiple icons for the drive on the desktop, and multiple instances of nautilus open to the drive. All remote shares are broken at this point and require that either smb or nfs server be restarted to allow remote cl [21:47] does ubuntu have any trouble running hardware raid ? [21:48] xy_42: do you have the desktop visual effects activated? [21:48] Pici: my php [21:48] I've just installed Ubuntu to hd0. I have an existing windows XP installation on sde1. How can I install grub to my windows xp drive so that I would be able to dual boot? note: find /boot/grub/stage1 returns hd0,0, which is not my windows drive. root (sde1,0) returns error 23. [21:48] Pici: my php's variable SERVER_ROOT needed to not be in a subdirectory, so I figured I could do a link and then switch out multiple php apps that all want to be root [21:49] sademac: make sure you change your repos to the mac ones [21:49] sademac: before you start downloading updates [21:49] mdg: thanks, good to know [21:49] Guest84498: could you pastebin dmesg|grep -i pulse [21:49] Pici: I mean my php app need to think it was in the root because of hardcoded stupidity [21:49] mdg: are they not already setup that way off of a ppc iso? [21:50] s032082_: nothing [21:50] sademac: I had to change mine [21:50] hey all. im trying to use apt-get to install libapache2-mod-wsgi. i can't seem to find it, though. it exists here, though: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/python/libapache2-mod-wsgi [21:50] is this package no longer available? [21:50] ganymede, hmm, this seems to work http://paste.debian.net/40510 [21:51] papapep: it was off [21:51] anyone know how to get jaunty to keep from auto mounting usb devices since the gnome-volume-manager is no longer there? [21:51] should I activate it? [21:51] ganymede, the non-greedy .*? at the end of your regex is probably not matching anything. [21:51] hey, whats the command to change screen resolution? [21:51] ravious: from memory it's a gconf option [21:51] tom_3121, xrandr [21:51] tom_3121: it's in system -> administration -> display menu [21:52] xy_42: no, no [21:52] thanks ikonia, i'll take a look [21:52] ganymede, do you play war3 ? [21:52] sademac: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1084539&highlight=PPC+sources+list - example of repos [21:52] yeh when i go to display it slows and doesnt load display properties [21:52] tom_3121: it will - give it change [21:52] unop: oh, thanks for the help, but i've already got it sorted out, it turns out that i forgot the HTML code wasn't stored in $_ so i needed to explicitly specify which variable to search through [21:52] recently gnome applets are dying when the system is restarted. They run fine otherwise. What may be the problem? [21:52] Guest84498: there appears to be a lot of issues with pulseaudio in jaunty. basically its in development still... [21:52] xy_42: they use produce problems like the one you describe very often [21:52] tom_3121: also worth checking system -> administration -> hardware drviers [21:52] yep updated to latest driver [21:52] ganymede, heh..duhh :) [21:53] so how do i use the xrandr command? [21:53] archer: nope [21:53] Some of my textfiles unexplainably want to be opened by Graphviz dot instead of gedit... First of all there seems to be no such software installed in the first place and I can't figure out why they would not want to be opened using gedit by default. can this be remedied somehow? [21:53] tom_3121: it's not easy to explain, first step is to read the man page [21:53] or is there a config file i can change? [21:53] s032082_: urm i just read something about user groups stuff and i check my user and iam not allouwed to use audio devices (its not ticket) i cant seem to add myself though need sudo but i acnt seem to do that [21:53] tom_3121: but I suggest you wait for the display menu to come up [21:53] ganymede, o ok :P i know someone with the nick [21:53] Guest84498: use the user manager gui [21:53] nah tried it a couple times [21:53] Guest84498: system -> administration -> groups and users [21:53] xy_42: i've found a forum thread that talks about your cam and its driver: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=375005, perhaps you should take a look at it [21:54] papapep: how do i know which is my cam model? I have forgotten it and it was not one of the well known brands [21:54] what's the tool that let's you search all text files on your system callewd?

[22:10] mdg: ok, but will I still need to install pppoeconf? [22:10] <_phx_> hey folks [22:10] Hi, after installing the latest security updates my desktop was filled with "fuzzy" lines. (the image seemed like static). And today theres characters on top. Can anybody tell me what happenned? [22:10] <_phx_> just wondering why the normal ubuntu installation automatically installs the mta exim? [22:11] s032082_: the PCM level was down to 0% [22:11] s032082_: leave it up to something silly to screw things over [22:11] Did any one has install driver for quadro fx 570 in ubuntu?? [22:11] _phx_, you need an MTA to send mail [22:12] _phx_: Are you talking about the exim mail server? [22:12] <_phx_> unop: i doubt that ... i need a mua locally and a mta online [22:12] <_phx_> edbian: yeah [22:12] when playing movies fullscreen in mplayer, it crashes when I move the mouse cursor or adjust the volume up\down (mute\unmute works fine) anyone experienced something similar? [22:13] _phx_: It is to send messages to alert the administrator of certain events. For example. If a user tries to sudo when they are not allowed to sudo that even is recorded and sent in an "email" to the root user. It is all local though so it is confusing. [22:14] hey all, looking for a way to boost my mic level, but it seems there is no mixer control on my sound chip (Intel HDA/Sigmatel STAC8200) [22:14] _phx_: If you log in to a CLI you will see "you X new mail messages". There are command line utilities to read them. [22:14] that's not the only use of exim tho [22:14] "you have* X new mail..." [22:14] <_phx_> edbian: CLI? [22:14] unop: Really? What else is it used for? [22:14] Hello [22:14] Guest54667: hehe, making mental note to be more pedantic when troubleshooting. it-crowd-style [22:14] _phx_: Command Line Interface. Press Ctrl + alt + F1 to get to it from a GUI :) [22:14] edbian, it can be configured to send mail to any domain .. not just the local machine [22:15] after enter this command my X server still running...any idea what is wrong here??? [22:15] /etc/init.d/gdm stop [22:15] anyone can answer a question on Intrepid Ibex? [22:15] Does Banshee have any dependencies besides the native plugin for it to "see" an iPod Shuffle gen2? [22:15] unop: O, well yeah. It can serve as a fully functional mail server [22:15] <_phx_> edbian: u mean the generic terminal? [22:15] <_phx_> ah, ok [22:15] how can i access a file elsewhere on the server from a user's home directory? like accessing /etc/data from /home/admin using php [22:15] _phx_: Yeah. Terminal = CLI [22:16] /etc/init.d/gdm stop ?? [22:16] <_phx_> edbian: that's fine ... using mutt on a server etc. ... was just wondering y a workstation should run a smtpd [22:16] _phx_: Yeah for those messages :) [22:16] edbian, well, i'm not so sure about it being able to forward mail on to a MDA tho [22:16] I've installed openssl-server and have it enabled. I find that every time I reboot the machine, ssh does not accept any connection until I locally log in. What's happening? I thought openssl-server should be started before runlevel 3? [22:16] unop: I don't even know what an MDA is so I have no idea if it can or not ha ha [22:17] Hey guys, Im having trouble connecting to a cisco vpn with ubuntu 9.04. Everytime i try to connect with the network manager it fails. Is there any way I can see an output or log somewhere so I can see exactly what fails? Thanks [22:17] Sumit, prepend with sudo .. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop [22:17] edbian, mail delivery agent - something like dovecot [22:17] <_phx_> edbian: still, i think a whole smtpd for some messages is quite too >>much<< [22:18] <_phx_> edbian: but thank you very much ;) [22:18] _phx_: Yeah, me too :) NP! [22:18] Is there free software to restore a .gho (Norton Ghost) image? [22:19] mubu, it does use syslog .. so you'll probably find something in /var/log/syslog [22:19] <_phx_> norton, urks *G* [22:19] hello, just wondering if openssh-client starts before GDM does? [22:19] I mean openssh-server [22:20] wolfier, i think it does [22:20] mubu, or one of the other files in that directory. I'd use something like this to find out. sudo tail -f /var/log/* [22:20] if im on a 64-bit Ubuntu installation, and i'm using apt-get to grab Python2.6, for example - will it grab a version compiled for 64-bit systems? [22:20] hm...it's sort of weird then...before I locally log in, I could not ping the machine and I could not ssh into it [22:20] chyea, yes [22:20] unop thanks., ill look in the sys log file viewer [22:21] i dont know but nvidia graphic driver want this x server to be closed [22:21] any idea guys [22:21] wolfier, it's network manager that doesn't start until x does [22:21] so you have no networking until then [22:21] Does Banshee have any dependencies besides the native plugin for it to "see" an iPod Shuffle gen2? [22:21] anyone using a skype phone successfully on linux with all it's features working? [22:21] <_phx_> sheep56323: what features? [22:21] /etc/init.d/gdm stop [22:22] any one here install quadro fx 570???? [22:22] _phx_, the ringing feature for example [22:22] Sumit, i just gave you the correct command to use [22:22] of the phone, not the computer speaker [22:23] <_phx_> sheep56323: ah, nope ... didn't read the "phone" after skype ... [22:23] mdg: that ipv6 solution did not work, so I rebooted from the live CD and all works just fine with the modem. Even my keyboard was not working correctly under a Wubi install. I guess that was not the way to go. No I have to figure out how to uninstall the Wubi installation and dual boot with Vista [22:23] i need a skype phone that will work on both windows and linux. i don't want only the basic buttons to work on linux [22:23] Neil3: thanks, is it possible to make the services available? For example, if I remotely reboot through ssh, there'll be no way I can log in again... [22:23] It seems that 9.04 in general needs a lot of cpu power. It is weird, but playing mp3's with audacious, rhythmbox, exaile, whatever (using pulseaudio or ALSA) needs about 10-15 percent of cpu power. To test I made a backup of the system, replaced Ubuntu by Archlinux and it seems that the problem is gone (other arise, but that's not the topic ;)) [22:23] JorgeJorgesson: I think you can uninstall wubi like a regular window program - control panel, remove software [22:24] sheep56323, you should try google [22:24] sheep56323: I think it is there somewhere on ubuntugeek.com [22:24] mdg: yeah, I thought so. I'll give it a shot. Hopefully it does not hurt my Vista installation. I'm not ready to wipe it off quite yet.

[22:32] no. i'm pretty sure there are no drivers for my phone. i want to buy a new one [22:32] how to stop x server??plz [22:32] sheep56323: you certainly can call regular phones with ekiga (you have to pay, of course!) [22:32] <_phx_> sheep56323: fair enough, so it's not a software problem ... it's a hardware one [22:32] i didn't say i wanted to call regular phones [22:32] !xorg [22:32] The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output.

I dont want a full blown touch typing teachme type program, just summit simple [22:34] Bodsda, gok?

[22:34] i have a quick question, i had windows xp installed on a computer, then i installed ubuntu, however after that i successfully installed windows xp on a vm within windows, is it possible to remove the xp partition and then resize the ubuntu partition to take up the rest of the space at the begining of the drive? [22:34] Neil3: I'l check it out, ty [22:34] oDesk: Ipkall only offers Washington State #s, last I checked. [22:34] how i check my "/" partition? [22:34] i'm not american [22:35] .i need one help.. I have P-3,1.1 MHz,512 MB RAM,Mercury Intel 810 e Mother board... I installed dual O.S windows xp and ubuntu.windows xp working very well. but when i click on shut down buttion in ubuntu plat form.. It says that"halt: unable to iterate IDE device.No such file or directory...[196.297214] System halts...Noa i manually turn off Cpu..how we can solve this problem,,,?pls help me... [22:35] sheep56323: Where are you at? [22:35] powerjuce, you'll need to do that from the LiveCD or a gpartedCD [22:35] is there a script i can use in ubuntu to display songs i play when im chatting in xchat [22:35] bastidrazor: if i do that that will not corrupt the ubuntu partition correct? [22:36] anyone know how to load Xfolder browser from terminal ? [22:36] why is my mp3 player recognised as a camera? It seems it uses a gphoto2://[usb:001,008]/ path... is that for a digital camera?? Because when i put mp3 files in the player, they are not reconised by the player later [22:36] is it possible to exit x server so that i can install nvidia deiver??? [22:36] man this is so stupid [22:36] i cant see how,since its just sending out put to the right port [22:36] powerjuce, resizing in the manner you want is risky. i don't know if it will or not. [22:37] bastidrazor: i thought so [22:37] Sumit: restart in safe mode, and choose to boot to shell, or whatever the option is called [22:37] Resizing in gparted _should_ be fairly safe, but always keep a backup of your important data. [22:37] you know like the GTSdll that works on windows platforms [22:37] ok thanx [22:37] see u later [22:38] whats best way to recover deleted files ? [22:38] thanks bastidrazor [22:38] powerjuce, make a backup of data you don't want to loose.. good luck [22:38] @snakdoc: Check your Trash. If they're not there, restore from backups, because it's difficult to restore deleted files on *nix. [22:39] i don't have anything left [22:39] i lost like 300 gb of data [22:39] did you lose the whole partition?

[22:40] pastebin? ok sec [22:40] @myxo or http://download.live.com/messenger [22:40] whoops [22:40] only ubuntu one boots [22:40] @myxo: make that http://paste.ubuntu.com [22:40] windows partaion is empty [22:41] Does Banshee have any dependencies besides the native plugin for it to "see" an iPod Shuffle gen2?) It turns out I didn't have the ipodsleuth package installed and that was the dependency that was missing. FYI if anyone else runs into this problem. [22:41] along with all file i had shared those folders on remote pc are empty [22:41] there is a wiki on how to recover a partion....https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery....have you tried that? [22:41] snakdoc: to recover files from ntfs mount the hdd in another box and scan it with something like recuva (windows) [22:41] http://pastebin.com/d45697d15 [22:41] no i will now [22:41] could anyone look at that? [22:41] @myxo: is that the only error? [22:41] Neil3: gok does not work, because im running fluxbox [22:42] yes, its simple, i had to edit my key a while back to get something to run in wine and i'm quite sure thats the issue [22:42] cbhl, sorry should've included your name in that msg [22:42] myxo: You need to import the GPG key for that repository or remove the repository. It's not a fatal error, as far as I am aware of. [22:42] cbhl, i'm really just not sure what the error is referring to. i'm anal though, i like an error free system [22:42] nick125, well, it's not fatal, but apt won't import the software repository unless it can verify the key [22:43] Hi, guys. My friend just did a fresh Jaunty install and it won't read her wireless card, which is a D-link wda 1320... her PC is a Dell Dimension 4600... lots of forum posts online say that this card works great, but she says it doesn't. Any ideas? [22:43] nick125, ahh, remove the budgetdedicated.com repository? [22:43] myxo: That or import the GPG key for that repository. [22:43] She also says that the wireless tab under network management is greyed out. [22:43] myxo, basically your system is saying, "I can't be sure this is what you think it is" and is complaining -- generally adding the key to apt-key will solve the problem... [22:43] myxo, there are a few resources out there on how to import the key [22:43] cbhl, hmmm ok, basically yea, i want to know wht the error is saying. [22:44] nick125 not sure how to do that, i assume thats where i'm heading though [22:44] myxo, https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#Adding%20the%20keys%20in%20the%20terminal [22:44] hi, how to make ubuntu somewhat secure? [22:44] hi i have a problem with matplotlib, when i make the colormap, i dont know how to revert the colors help!!!!!! [22:44] cbhl should i google the apt-key command or do you, ah ok, thanks =) [22:44] ubuntu desktop [22:44] ive got 2 ubuntu machines on my home network. I apt-get install stuff on one and often then want it on the other as well. Ive been copying the relavent .debs from the cache folder and then installing them on the other machine using dpkg. Is there a "tidier" way of doing this? In the past ive installed the apt-cache server but surely theres an easier way [22:44] can someone help me with a dpkg error [22:44] myxo, The page talk about PPAs (Personal Package Archives), although that section applies to all repositories that should be secured [22:45] AndorinKato: you need to enable networking [22:45] doubleclick the network icon on the menu bar and click on "enable networking" [22:45] @pedestrianentra1, I believe Canonical provides a paid service that can do that, if you're looking for an "easier" way === DIFH-iceroot is now known as iceroot [22:46] mdg: Ok, passing it on [22:46] E: The package com.unixpod.catfacts.mmpflip needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it [22:46] AndorinKato: acutally, right click and enable networking [22:46] how can i just remove this package from trying to get installed [22:46] pedestrianentra1: look into aptoncd [22:46] Ok [22:46] th0r: thanks [22:47] does anyone know if there is a small, neat onscreen keyboard app that just displays what buttons im pressing? I dont want a full blown touch typing teachme type program, just summit simple [22:48] cbhl, i'm going to read it and try to get the error out of the way, and unconfuse my system, i'll brb in a bit if its to no avail [22:48] Bodsda_, I'm not sure about what level of information you want displayed, but have you tried running "xev" from the terminal? [22:48] myxo, alright then -- for what it's worth, though, you should be able to run those commands from the terminal inside Ubuntu while it's running, though [22:49] i installed firefox 3.5 but when i run firefox and go to help -> about it says 3.0.11 [22:49] cbhl while whats running? [22:49] any idea what im doing wrong? [22:49] cbhl: that doesnt seem to display anything. I just need it to highlight wich keys Im pressing -- im trying to learn to touch type [22:49] i added the mozilla daily builds repository to synaptic, thats how i downloaded it [22:49] Bodsda_: you can enable on an on-screen keyboard in accessibility options, then you would have a reference point if that's what you are looking for. === schoppenhauer_ is now known as schoppenhauer [22:49] Rob235, how did you install it? [22:49] read my last msg [22:50] Bodsda_, Oh, okay then. [22:50] mdg: im running fluxbox [22:50] hi, turned on compuiz plugin window blur, screen went black, when I restart and log in, i just get a cursour and a few flashing pixels [22:50] Rob235, in terminal type firefox then hit tab twice.. what options are you given? [22:50] myxo, the apt-key commands can be run from Terminal (Applications -> Accessories in Ubuntu) or Konsole [22:50] Bodsda_: gtkeyboard [22:50] Bodsda_: try asking in a Fluxbox channel? [22:50] cbhl ah yea, i'm decently familiar with the terminal, i find its a very convenient way to do things. [22:51] cbhl i only know a handful of commands though, no more than 10 =( [22:51] ahh, firefox, firefox-3.0 and firefox 3.5..... do i just need to change the icon's command to the 3.5 one? [22:51] cbhl not including cd, ls, less, etc [22:51] Rob235: Or just make a new one. [22:51] mdg: no such command or package [22:51] ok let me try, thanks [22:51] mneptok: il try [22:51] myxo, fair enough... I think the idea is that you're not supposed to even need to know 10 when using ubuntu (although I don't think we're quite there yet) [22:51] Rob235: or change the link in /usr/bin to point to the 3.5 version [22:51] cbhl to me thats kind of lame. [22:51] Rob235, edit menus and change the command to firefox 3.5 [22:51] the command right now is firefox %u do you know what the %u is? [22:52] Bodsda_: sudo apt-get install gtkeyboard [22:52] myxo, fair enough [22:52] cbhl why use linux if you don't want to try? thats the whole idea. ubuntu just helps the dive feel smoother [22:52] Salut tous le monde [22:52] Hi every one [22:52] mdg: E: Couldn't find package gtkeyboard [22:52] myxo, well, it depends on the user base you're aiming for, so. [22:52] Rob235: that passes a link to firefox [22:52] * cbhl shrugs [22:52] Rob235, i believe that refers to your user profile in .mozilla [22:52] !info gtkeyboard [22:52] Package gtkeyboard does not exist in jaunty [22:52] so the homepage? [22:52] sry took so long to respond but the hd is in latop and other one i don't have space to recover :( going to friends has hd space i need for recover thanks for help [22:52] cbhl i'm the kind of person that will not feel shafted spending 3 weeks to get something working, as long as i learn something in the process and it works properly (until an update! haha) [22:53] Bodsda_: do you have a "control center" entry on your menus - look for accesibility [22:53] cbhl anyway, let me try to understand what you've linked me about the apt-key command... and slow down on the beers until i get furhter in maybe, haha [22:53] myxo, alrighty [22:53] help anyone? [22:53] mm, stupid question, for webpage permissions under lighttpd, would I be ok uploading the files as root, or with my own user account and just make the user join the www group? [22:54] bitf, have you tried running in Gnome Failsafe mode? [22:54] yup 3.5 works now [22:54] thanks [22:54] mdg: She's running Kubuntu and doesn't see a simple "enable networking" option [22:54] mdg: xmag and GOK, but i need to log out for GOK to work.. really dont want to log out [22:54] looks exactly the same though heh [22:54] Mass-updating tags with mp3tag, but when I reload them into Banshee the same old tags are there... Any ideas? [22:54] cbhl, I ran recovery mode, how do I run GNOME failsafe? [22:55] does mp3tag have support for looking up tags on the internet?\ [22:55] based on the files [22:55] AndorinKato: I'm not real familiar with KDE.... [22:55] bitf, do you get a login screen when you start up "normally"? [22:55] yes [22:55] Ok, I'll just ask again to see if someone else can help [22:55] Bodsda_: not sure what to tell you. [22:56] My friend just did a fresh Jaunty install and it won't read her wireless card, which is a D-link wda 1320... her PC is a Dell Dimension 4600... lots of forum posts online say that this card works great, but she says it doesn't. Any ideas? [22:56] mdg: tell me to log out probably :) [22:56] AndorinKato: try #kubuntu [22:56] Thx anyway. [22:56] Alrighty. [22:56] ugh [22:56] Bodsda_, If I recall correctly, there are some touch-typing applications in the edubuntu packages, which can be installed on top of ubuntu [22:56] i broke my x and i need to get to a command prompt, but after boot it freezes at the gdm login [22:57] ctrl-alt-f1 wont work, does anyone know another way? [22:57] cbhl: most of them are full blown apps that teach you step by step i think [22:57] bitf, at the log in screen, select "Session" (or "Options" and then "Session") and usually you will see an option for Gnome Failsafe [22:57] d0wn4r, reboot to command prompt [22:57] bastidrazor, if i select recovery mode its still inits x.. [22:57] Bodsda_, True, but then again, my teacher taught me how to touch-type by making me type pages out of a book into Word 97. [22:58] hello trying to share on samba using: sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=kad,password=kad,ip=192.168.1.25 //home/kad/Desktop/kad/ /mnt/share give error why? thx =) [22:58] d0wn4r, you have more selections .. scroll down the list. you have a root terminal/command option [22:58] bastidrazor, there is no command prompt option [22:58] cbhl: an onscreen keyboard would be a lot more useful :) [22:58] just normal recovery which inits x and a memtest option [22:58] Bodsda_, have you tried KTouch? [22:59] d0wn4r, what version of ubuntu? [22:59] i'll try, thanks [22:59] d0wn4r: Alt-f2 doesn't get you to a prompt? [22:59] cbhl: id rather not fill my machine with kdelibs [22:59] Bodsda_ fair enough [22:59] d0wn4r, do you have intel integrated graphics? [22:59] Bodsda_: what was the problem with gtkeyboard? [22:59] bastidrazor, the custom dell install i suppose [22:59] i have a dell 530 [22:59] mdg: it wants me to log out before it will workk [22:59] thor, yes intel real intel [23:00] i mean [23:00] cbhl, yes intel [23:00] thor alt-f2 doesnt go either [23:00] 'ello. Is there a way to make keyboard layouts separate for each app? [23:00] d0wn4r: I recall there are some issues with intel graphics freezing in 9.04 -- I had to edit the X.org configuration manually because the intel drivers cause the graphics hardware to do a hard lockup [23:00] Bodsda_: why problem logging out (not shut down) [23:01] mdg: takes too long, and I dont want to have to restart firefox and my terminal... guess im being a bit pedantic? [23:01] cbhl, thats what i did.. its a hard lockup .. i did the -phigh ooption and thats where it borked [23:01] d0wn4r: You'll either need to manually set it to use VESA, or downgrade to 8.10 [23:01] Bodsda_: Okay :) [23:02] hey guys I have a couple of questions [23:02] i'm using 8,0.4 live cd, is there anyway for me to run a .exe file, I need to extract SATA drivers to put on a floppy so I can run a windows recovery console. [23:02] cbhl, how do i do that without getting to a console? [23:02] im a gentoo user trying out ubuntu netbook edition on my new netbook, a hp 2133. im having issues with modesetting though. the driver (openchrome) loads fine, but there are overlay issues and the mode is set way to high. trying to reduce it through the display dialogue in settings results in an error about the virtual screen size now being smaller than the physical, and the automatic correction fails. how am i supposed to [23:02] Devon_C: I'm a noob, but go ahead... [23:02] Bodsda_: you have synaptic? [23:02] proceed? [23:02] cbhl: with failsafe GNOME it fails to improve [23:02] anyone have any experience fixing the page format in firefox? [23:02] I was wondering if anyone here might know how to enable keyboard macros for windows applications running with WINE? [23:02] whats the best method for ripping music off an iPod? is there a program you guys would recommend for doing so? [23:02] or how can i get to console.. isnt there a way i can just add the lines to grub to bypass it? [23:03] d0wn4r: you'll need to get to a console from the GRUB boot menu [23:03] I've been googling for an hour or so [23:03] nothings really helping [23:03] Devon_C: gtkpod [23:03] can I get that from iLounge? [23:03] cbhl i dont know the grub lines for that and im having poor luck finding that on the net [23:03] hello trying to share on samba using: sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=kad,password=kad,ip=192.168.1.25 //home/kad/Desktop/kad/ /mnt/share give error why? thx =) [23:03] I think I saw it [23:03] Devon_C: it is in the repos [23:04] and another thing while I'm on the subject of iPods... [23:04] my first gen touch is being read as a digital camera [23:04] @d0wn4r: replace "quiet splash" with "single" and it should put you in the right place, if you know how to dynamically edit the kernel arguments in grub at boot time? [23:04] anyone here familiar with rdesktop? [23:04] I think it's because you can take screenshots and save them [23:04] Quick question for any Eeebuntu users out there... [23:04] but I can't get it to appear in the source list in neither Banshee nor RythmBox [23:05] cbhl, ill try that now. [23:05] Devon_C: I thing there is a plugin you have to enable [23:05] @bitf: how did you enable compiz, anyway? [23:05] oh, and thor, gtkpod doesn't support iPod Touches [23:06] cbhl: downloaded Compiz config [23:06] or does it...? === default is now known as acad [23:06] sillyCEO: jump right in [23:06] bitf, ... where and how did you download it, and what version of ubuntu are you running?

[23:07] how do i change the gdm themes in 9.04 [23:07] Devon_C: don't know about the Touch...my Nano works fine [23:07] ? [23:07] I was wondering if anyone here might know how to enable keyboard macros for windows applications running with WINE? (E.g. Ctrl + S, Ctrl + C/V) [23:07] cbhl: synaptic, 9.04 [23:07] sillyCEO: you should be able to set it up so you don't have to [23:07] yeah it says Nanos and the like are supported, but it doesn't say anything about Touches [23:07] System->Preferences->Appearance [23:07] what wifi manager you using? [23:07] to change themes. [23:07] That what I thought- but my machine seems to forget my WiFi password every time I boot up. [23:07] fffffffff [23:08] mdg: Whatever comes with eeebuntu- I think 'network manager' [23:08] oh and btw, I don't want to have to run Windows in Virtualbox to use my iPod [23:08] I just want to be able to manage my music in Banshee [23:08] mdg: gok does not seem to be an onscreen keyboard.. or its not working -- its just a window with 9 or so buttons that do nothing [23:08] sillyCEO: I don't have an eeepc ... yet, [23:09] Bodsda_: GOK is gnome based [23:09] mdg: yes...

Specifically: [23:19] Devon_C: I *think* you go it through rhythmbox or amarok - are you using either of those? [23:19] FloridaGuy: gksudo is a better choice [23:19] iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -d 51.0.0.0 -j DNAT --to [23:19] I have both RythmBox and Banshee [23:19] the "51" specifically [23:20] so should I use RhythemBox? [23:20] Rhythm* [23:20] gdm display manager not running [23:20] do any of you also get on yahoo [23:20] Devon_C: look in preferences or setup in the one your prefer [23:20] Specifically the emboldened numbers are different on three different accounts [23:20] i am lookin to learn how to compile the gyachi source [23:20] cbhl: would the best option be to reset with the live cd?

[23:21] hello supreme [23:21] to adjust the command accordingly [23:21] shorterror, i have problems with gpm [23:21] Devon_C: something related to ipods and apple formats [23:21] FloridaGuy: do you have a vnc server running?

[23:21] th0r, not that i know of...a normal install [23:21] supreme: startx at a terminal [23:22] supreme what is it you are doing? [23:22] what package do i need to install to get japanese fonts, not translations? [23:22] mdg: I just clicked plugins in RhythmBox, and it says the iPod one is enabled [23:22] :/ [23:23] FloridaGuy: you don't get a prompt for your password or anything...it just drops to that error? [23:23] Devon_C: with your ipod plugged in, see if it shows up in rhythmbox under "devices" [23:23] bitf, it might not be the best, but it will likely be the most straightforward [23:23] mdg: it doesn't, there's nothing in the source list === akos is now known as Guest88101 [23:24] bitf, the only other idea that might be worth a shot, is if you can get to a command line... [23:24] Devon_C: try plugging in the ipod before you start rhythmbox [23:24] th0r, right...just drops it [23:24] mdg: yeah, I've tried both. ubuntu is reading my iPod touch as a digital camera [23:24] bitf, might be to try temporarily moving your home folder somewhere else [23:24] mdg, after screensaver , the screen goes blank right? after that i cannot go back from that state [23:25] Devon_C: you just wanting to move stuff from/to the ipod? [23:26] FloridaGuy: [23:26] mdg: essentially yes. I had to wipe my hard drive, which had windows XP on it. instead of updating and doing everything again in windows, I decided to install ubuntu. :) so now, I want to transfer my library of 1600+ songs from my iPod touch to my music folder in ubuntu [23:26] Devon_C: if just being able to move music to/from, try gnomad2 [23:26] FloridaGuy: did you type the command as I entered it "gksudo /usr/sbin/gdmsetup' [23:27] Devon_C: have you ipod plugged in and then start gnomad2 [23:27] mdg: do I have to download it or do I do something from terminal? [23:27] Devon_C: you can use Synaptic or apt-get install gnomad2 [23:28] Devon_C: your choice [23:28] Devon_C: its not fancy or pretty, but it works [23:28] hello [23:28] FloridaGuy: it should prompt for the password before it even tries to access gdm [23:28] how to print screenshot? [23:28] mdg: okay, so what will gnomad2 do? [23:29] holla === root is now known as Guest74008 [23:29] I can get to command line [23:29] th0r, i just typed sudo gdm in terminal..restarted xserver and now works [23:29] Devon_C: it brings up a window where one side is your computer and othe side is ipod/music player and you can choose what to transfer, etc. [23:29] unclemike: well...we won't argue with success [23:30] tunedor: what version of ubuntu you running?

[23:39] tunedor: do you have the program imagemagik [23:39] It says it can't read from boot medium.

I then proceded to put the startup script in /usr/bin and now it complains about not being able to find the runtime directory. I tried cp -l instead and it had the same result. Help? [23:40] causasui: if it is too long, pastebin it [23:40] th0r: When I try to connect, I get something like "ECONN: Connection refused by server" [23:40] tunedor: there is a screenshot option in imagemagik [23:41] mdg: okay, opened gnomad2 using the terminal command [23:41] I don't mind pm's to help me out [23:41] Apollo2366: probably flock requires the entire contents of the folder in the tar.bz2 to run, not just the startup script [23:41] causasui: it is a permission thing. Pastebin the conf file [23:41] mdg: I get the error. In terminal, the line after where I entered "gnomad2" reads "PDE device NULL." [23:41] cbhl, so cp the entire directory? [23:41] Apollo2366: [23:41] mdg: then it starts a new line but anything I enter doesn't read [23:41] Apollo2366: no. [23:41] mdg: it just starts a new line [23:42] Apollo2366: that could potentially muck up your system and cause Bad Things (TM) to happen [23:42] th0r: Ok sec [23:42] mdg: SO. gnomad2 is running, my iPod is plugged in [23:42] Apollo2366: Why do you want to copy it to /usr/bin? [23:42] mdg: but I have to open a new terminal window to enter lsusb like you told me [23:42] Devon_C: okay, hold on.... searching [23:42] So I'll be able to launch it like any other program [23:43] Just do "flock-browser" and bam, there it is [23:43] th0r: I'm having trouble finding it [23:43] mdg: and yes, my ipod is coming up as "Apple, Inc." on Bus 001 Device 008 [23:43] Apollo2366: You can add arbitrary directories to your path, and still get the same behavior without moving things into /usr/bin [23:43] mdg: (I just opened a new tab in terminal to enter lsusb) [23:43] causasui: I don't have it installed on this box, but it should be in /etc, maybe /etc/pureftp or /etc/pureftpd [23:44] th0r: this is really weirdbut neither folder exists. I'm going to reinstall [23:44] Devon_C: we need to make sure you have libmtp-dev [23:44] cbhl, how do I modify the path variable? [23:45] Apollo2366: Try looking at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=232934 or http://www.everyjoe.com/newlinuxuser/howto-add-a-directory-to-my-path-statementvariable/ [23:45] mdg: what is that, may I ask? [23:45] cbhl: it works, thanks for your help [23:45] causasui: are you logging in as anonymous? [23:45] Apollo2366: You can also see if a prepackaged flock deb gives you what you want, e.g. http://www.getdeb.net/app/Flock --- or consider adding a launcher as per the wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingFlock [23:45] th0r: I never even got the chance to log in, it just said connection refused === Uncle|Sam is now known as uncle|sam [23:45] bitf: that's good to hear; glad I could help [23:46] Devon_C: it has to do with file formats.... [23:46] Devon_C: can you use synaptic? [23:46] th0r: It looks to me like it's no longer in the repository. this is baffling [23:46] causasui: I found this....see if it helps...http://forums.opensuse.org/archives/sf-archives/archives-network-internet/310208-pure-ftpd-refuses-connections.html [23:47] mdg: I don't have it installed [23:47] Devon_C: you don't have synaptic? [23:47] causasui: and on the ftp server check to see if pureftpd is running (ps ax | grep ftp [23:47] cbhl, cool. One more question: If I add a directory, will any subdirectories be included in it? For example if I add ~/software, will it's subdirectories be searched for commands? [23:47] mdg: I don't think. I only installed ubuntu 2 days ago [23:47] cbhl, thank you sir i am up and running again [23:47] Need some help with a strange issue that I am having with GDM on login: black background with only a mouse pointer. [23:48] th0r: the name of the package in the repository has changed, I'm installing the new one [23:48] Logging in with failsafe gnome works [23:48] Apollo2366: I don't think so, but try it and see [23:48] Devon_C: Menu > Adminitration and look for "Synaptic" [23:48] d0wn4r: Good to hear. All the best. [23:48] so one of the startup scripts is hanging or something [23:48] Devon_C: I assure you that you have it [23:48] cbhl thank you.. [23:48] mdg: yeah I have it [23:48] Here is the process list: http://www.binpaste.com/v.php?id=3ignm [23:48] d0wn4r: You're welcome! [23:48] Devon_C: Synaptic is like one-stop app adding [23:48] now i can get off this eee! [23:48] mdg: but can we continue this in a couple minutes? [23:49] causasui: I have used vsftpd for a long time....pure gave me problems one day and the easiest fix was to switch [23:49] mdg: I'll brb [23:49] and here is the lsof for the user: http://www.binpaste.com/v.php?id=h6a86 [23:49] exit [23:49] Devon_C: in the search box look for gnomad2 [23:49] Devon_C: okay [23:49] th0r: I couldnt find any good webmin tools for vsftpd [23:49] Looks like there is some permission denied issue in the lsof [23:49] I just can't figure it out [23:49] causasui: agreed...but the conf file is easy enough to maintain without them [23:50] Apollo2366: I generally don't have all /that/ many applications where I need to run them from the terminal and they need to be in my path... since there are things like tab auto-completion [23:50] th0r: I can't do it without a webmin, sorry [23:50] Apollo2366: Although your situation may vary from mine. [23:50] Apollo2366: Any other questions? [23:53] The weird thing is that it is only happening for a few users [23:53] not everyone [23:54] (this is in a computer lab setup with libpam-ldap/libnss-ldap/nfs homes) [23:54] is this where i would go if i needed help with ubuntu [23:54] wildboy211, correct [23:55] okay i just installed ubuntu for the first time last night on my nely built desktop...

Otherwise you have a catch-22 problem, where you need internet to download the drivers to let you access the internet. [23:59] mdg: had to grab a bite [23:59] mdg: anyway, I searched gnomad2 in Synaptic [23:59] mdg: it came up, what now? [23:59] hey guys, where is the root password stored?
