dunkshoolz /etc/shadow00:00
droptothetophoolz, did you actually enable the root account and set a password?00:00
mdgDevon_C: now right click on gnomad and you should get an option to install00:00
Apollo2366cbhl, It's not really a matter of practicality, more of a learning experience if you will. Anyway, I changed /etc/environment to include /home/eric/Software/flock but when I attempt to run flock-browser bash says "/usr/bin/flock-browser no such file or directory"00:00
hero1900hi guys have problem in Empathy 2.27.2 i can login in msn by it but all people appear offline but in reality some of them are online an one know what is the problem00:00
hoolzdroptothetop i think so00:00
hoolzhow do i find out?00:00
mdgDevon_C: then click "apply"00:00
Devon_Cmdg: it's installed00:01
hoolzwait i think im just a "user" account00:01
Devon_Cmdg: it gives me an option to uninstall00:01
mdgDevon_C: also grap gtkpod00:01
droptothetophoolz, well if you set it, then it will be hashed in /etc/shadow00:01
cbhlApollo2366: What did you type into bash, exactly?00:01
mdggrap/grab00:01
Apollo2366flock-browser00:01
droptothetophoolz, you won't actually be able to see the password itself00:01
Devon_Cmdg: :/ it doesn't support iPod touches00:01
cbhlwildboy211: Hm, that's a bit above my level, sorry. Perhaps someone else here can help you.00:01
droptothetophoolz, just it's hash00:01
Devon_Cmdg: or it least doesn't say anything about them00:01
hoolzoh00:01
hoolzis it crackable?00:01
wildboy211thanks anyways...00:01
mdgDevon_C: gtkpod does 1st generation00:01
Devon_Cmdg: I'm reinstalling gnomad00:01
droptothetophoolz, it would take awhile00:01
krisss117hi how change drivers wifi ?00:01
Devon_Cmdg: oh, great!00:02
cbhlApollo2366: what does "echo $PATH" tell you?00:02
hoolzdroptothetop are there any vuln for ubuntu desktop00:02
hoolzor is it secure?00:02
krisss117how change drivers wifi ???00:02
cbhlhoolz: If you have physical access to the PC, you could always overwrite Ubuntu with another OS (e.g. Windows)... that could be considered "insecure"00:03
mdgDevon_C: I have a web page tutorial for gtkpod http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/07/07/how-to-use-gtkpod-to-manage-your-ipod-in-ubuntu/00:03
Devon_Cmdg: okay, I think I need to actually mount my iPod00:03
Apollo2366cbhl, that's weird, it prints what it was before I added my stuff to it00:03

Apollo2366cbhl, so everything except /home/eric/Software/flock00:04
satelliteExcuse me y'all... is there a plugin for XCHAT that edits that capitalizes the first letter and adds punctuation?00:04
cbhlApollo2366: Try restarting your terminal... if that doesn't help, try logging out and logging back in. If I recall correctly, /etc/environment only gets read a few times, so when you change it you need to force whatever it is that loads it to reread /etc/environment00:04
wildboy211anybody else think they can help me...i need to get my USB network adapter workign00:04
th0rwildboy211: I sent you a link where someone got that adapter working00:05

giampieroGood evening everyone00:13
Devon_Cmdg: okay, so you want me to restart my computer?00:13
cbhlApollo2366: Just keep in mind that it might not work as expected -- for example, there's a program called busybox (which you may have heard of) which acts differently depending on what name it's called with00:13
mdgDevon_C: no not computer, just gtkpod00:13
satelliteevon: If you are enlarging a partition, than you are not combining two with data... OK then Go for it.00:13
Devon_Cmdg: thats what I thought, okay... trying again00:13

AndorinKatomdg: Manage connections, network management settings, panel options00:24
mdgAndorinKato: is "enable networking" checked?00:24
AndorinKatomdg: There is no 'enable networking' option when she right-clicks the icon.00:24
cbhlgiampiero: For example, "sdlmame <my filename>"00:24
Kjellgiampiero: to copy use sudo cp <source> <destination>00:24
giampieroThe install file does everything on its own, I don't think I can change destination directories...00:24
mdgDevon_C: click the browse button00:24
mdgAndorinKato: is there a "connection information" option00:25
Devon_Cmdg: the browse button where?00:25
cbhlgiampiero: What file do you need to copy into those directories, exactly?00:25
AndorinKatomdg: No, the only two relevant options are manage connections and network management settings.00:25
mdgDevon_C: not sure - the guide I am looking at says "browse" button00:25

cbhlgiampiero: As far as I can tell, you can either A) attempt to read the output of "man sdlmame" and set up a config file outside of the root-owned folder  (you will need to pass arguments to sdlmame everytime you run it)00:31
tyler_draylu:  system crashed00:31

cbhlgiampiero: Or you can use "sudo" to run editors and/or copy files into the root-owned directory ("e.g. sudo gedit or sudo cp <from> <to>"00:32
tyler_draylu: now that lists the wireless networks, but through network manager they don't show?00:32

jigpgood morning :) i have 1 freenode and 1 bitlbee. how to connect to another irc00:42
jigp              server and to disconnect in 1st server or 2nd server without00:42
jigp              affecting the 1st or 2nd server or whichever server irc to00:42
jigp              disconnect and not to disconnect. thanks00:42
FloodBot2jigp: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.00:42
jigpsorry00:42
Devon_Cmdg: I'll try that next00:42
AndorinKatoraylu: Then what should ifconfig show her that has to do with wireless?00:42
linuxguy2009Can anyone recommend a good WYSIWYG(no coding required) web design application? Doesn't appear to be many so far but hopefully I'm wrong.00:42
rayluAndorinKato: sorry, haven't been following the conversation, so i have no idea. just mentioning after reading your last line00:42
Flanneljigp: /connect [server]00:43
AndorinKatoOk00:43
rayluAndorinKato: also, if the device isn't up, ifconfig -a will show it00:43
jigpgood morning :) i have 1 freenode and 1 bitlbee. how to connect to another irc server and to disconnect in 1st server or 2nd server without affecting the 1st or 2nd server or whichever server irc to disconnect and not to disconnect. thanks00:43
jigpFlannel: okay how to disconnect server irc 1?00:43
jigpFlannel : without affecting the server 2...00:43
raylujigp: /wn will get you a new window. ctrl+x will switch servers. you can /disconnect from there. /server list will also help you00:43
mdgAndorinKato: did she get a cd with drivers?00:43
Flanneljigp: Go to window 1, and you use ctrl-x to cycle through them, then /disconnect00:43
rayluoh, right, if you still have the status window enabled, that'll work too00:44
AndorinKatoraylu: Now she also gets pan0 but still nothing for wireless00:44
Devon_Cmdg: looks like I'll have to wait until my sister moves out - I can take her desktop with Windows XP installed on it00:44
jigpFlannel : window 1 which is the [status] right?00:44
Devon_Cmdg: but man, I really wish this would have worked00:44
rayluAndorinKato: what card/driver is "she" using?00:44
Flanneljigp: correct, after your nick you see something like: [1:freenode (change with ^X)]00:44
Flanneljigp: That'll change as you cycle00:44
mdgDevon_C: did you update your 2 day old install?00:44
Devon_Cmdg: yeah, of course00:44
Devon_Cmdg: I can check for updates then restart00:45
Devon_Csee if that helps00:45
AndorinKatomdg: She says she did but apparently the disc is designed for Windows00:45
mdgDevon_C: just checking -00:45
jigpFlannel : so win i do cntl+x i will just type /disconnect server1 ? and server2 will not disconnect?00:45
mdgAndorinKato: that's okay.  We need the WIN XP driver from it.  But before that00:45
Flanneljigp: just /disconnect will disconnect you from your current server00:45
AndorinKatoraylu: Her wireless card is a D-link WTA 132000:45
jigpFlannel : win/when00:45
linuxguy2009Man I wish there was a DreamWeaver replacement for Linux.00:45
mdgAndorinKato: we need to make sure ndiswrapper and ntgdisk are installed00:45
AndorinKatoOk00:45
raylulinuxguy2009: there's a better one. it's called a text editor00:45
sebastien_nothing replace Dreamweaver00:46
Devon_Cmdg: hmmm... something just updated00:46
jigpFlannel : ok thanks :) good morning00:46
sebastien_the best WYSIWYG00:46
Flannel!html | linuxguy200900:46
ubottulinuxguy2009: html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build web pages. WYSIWYG editors: KompoZer (was Nvu), Iceape Composer, Amaya - Development environments: Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem - For a howto on HTML coding, see: http://www.w3schools.com/00:46
AndorinKatomdg: She has neither.00:46
linuxguy2009raylu: Im too lazy to learn HTML coding. Why bother.00:46
cyberghoser1mdg, actually it's ndisgtk ;)00:46
raylulinuxguy2009: it's not even coding. and you should bother because nobody wants more crap spit out of wysiwyg editors on the internet00:46
sebastien_aren't you a pro dev linuxguy2009 ?00:47
mdgAndorinKato: we need to go in through synaptic Menu - Administration -Synaptic00:47
Devon_Coh, and another quick thing - anyone can answer this00:47
raylusebastien_: he uses dreamweaver, what kind of question is that?00:47
Devon_Chow do I hide folders? is there an option in preferences?00:47
linuxguy2009nope not a pro at all.00:47

AndorinKatomdg: Real quick, she isn't connected to the Internet, will this make a difference?00:47
rayluDevon_C: the simplest way is to start their names with a .00:47
Flannelraylu: When helping, please be helpful.00:47
mdgcyberghoser1: thanks!00:48
Devon_Craylu: so start with a "."00:48

cyberghoser1hi Eternal_Sin00:48
sebastien_hi00:48
rayluFlannel: sorry :(00:48
Devon_Craylu: that didn't work :/00:49
mdgAndorinKato: yes she needs internet access somehow to get these00:49
rayluDevon_C: what did you do?00:49
AndorinKatomdg: Well, her entire problem is that she's trying to /get/ connectefd00:49
AndorinKato-f00:49
Devon_Craylu: the folder name is pf3 so i changed it to ".pf3"00:49
rayluAndorinKato: you can't temporarily plug in an ethernet cable?00:49
cyberghoser1Devon_C, if you put a dot in front of the file/folder you want to hide it will not show up in nautilus unless you use preferences -> show hidden folders00:50
AndorinKatoraylu: No, I don't think she has one long enough anyway00:50
mdgAndorinKato: no ethernet adapter and cable?00:50
rayluDevon_C: it should be hidden when you "ls" that directory now. and what cyberghoser1 said about nautilus00:50
Devon_Craylu: yeah, that worked00:51
Devon_Cthanks!00:51
mdgare ndiswrapper and ndiskgtc on the install cd - does anyone know?00:51

Devon_Calright folks... thanks for all your help! especially mdg, thanks so much man00:52
mdgAndorinKato: are you and your friend in the same location?00:52
hikenboot_hello can anyone tell me the equivalent in ubuntu for emege -av nvidia-drivers?00:52
AndorinKatomdg: No, I'm talking to her over the phone00:52
Devon_CI'll be rolling out now00:52
mdgDevon_C: your welcome - wish it would have turned out better00:52
rayluhikenboot_: aptitude install nvidia-glx00:52
Flannelmdg, raylu: ndiswrapper is, and... ndisgtk is too.00:52
rayluhikenboot_: there's no real equivalent to -a, but -s simulates00:52
et!slap Varakh00:53
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about slap Varakh00:53
mdgFlannel: can you walk AndorinKato how to install them from disk?00:53
mdgFlannel: I've never done that from the install disk before00:54
hikenboot_raylu,  i am following these gentoo directions http://legroom.net/2008/06/22/running-binary-nvidia-drivers-under-xen-host but it seems like their command installs it against a different kernel source...00:54
mdgFlannel: Oh, you add the disk through SYnaptic right?00:54
undertakertgv00:54
giacoI'd like to join 5 high resolution pngs into an avi file (1600x1200) where every image stays for 3 seconds, and then the next one. Which linux software would you use to accomplish this? Do you know the mencoder command?00:54
Flannelmdg, AndorinKato: put your install CD in the drive (with Ubuntu running), if it doesn't automatically pick it up, go to a terminal and do: `sudo apt-cdrom add` and then your CD will be added as a repository.  Then use whatever package manager you want (synaptic) to install the package.00:54
rayluhikenboot_: that command should install it for the currently running kernel's source.. probably.00:54
Flannelmdg: Yeah, it's just a repo on the CD00:54
mubuHey guys is there any command or way to know what version of an application i have installed (i didnt install it through synaptic).? Im interested in know what version of AWN (avant window manager) I am running. Thanks00:54
AndorinKatoFlannel: Before we get into it, she's running Kubuntu 9.04. Does this make a difference?00:55
mdgFlannel: that's easy! :) Thanks!00:55
raylumdg: by default, i think there's a commented line in /etc/apt/sources.list with the cd repo00:55
FlannelAndorinKato: I'll double check the Kubuntu CD00:55
Flannelraylu: Only if you install with the alternate CD00:55
raylumubu: mos tapps have --version00:55
myk_robinsonhow do you configure virtual hosts for Apache in Ubuntu Jaunty?00:56
rayluFlannel: i've always installed with the desktop cd on a usb and it's been there00:56
raylumubu: *most apps00:56
muburaylu will try it out thanks00:56
mdgFlannel: can I ask -how did you determine they are on the install cd?00:56
raylumyk_robinson: there are a ton of guides on the internet. also, try #ubuntu-server00:56
muburaylu wokred like a charm00:56
Flannelmdg: hmm, kubuntu doesn't have a .list file for some reason.  Yeah, This file lists everything on the CD (for this particular version): http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.list00:57
Flannelmdg: That's in the same folder on the mirrors as the ISOs themselves, .list is a listing of the contents of the CD, .manifest is a list of the packages built into the live image00:57
Flannelmyk_robinson: What are you trying to configure?00:58
mdgFlannel: I did not know that - excellent!  :)00:58
^Phantom^Can anyone please recommend me a good tv tuner program for ubuntu?00:58
myk_robinsonFlannel: I want to use /home/user/Public/WWW as the root, with subfolders inside for sites I am working on for testing before uploading to a real webserver00:58
marca311^Phantom^: Myth TV00:59
Flannelmyk_robinson: Does it hvave to be root? or can it be domain/~user/?  since that's already set up actually.00:59
ewsubachi am having trouble deleting files. I am logged in as root, the files are owned by root, they do not have any special extended attributes, but yet rm says "cannot remove 'file_name': Permission denied"00:59
* ^Phantom^ looks into it00:59
myk_robinsonFlannel: for example, /home/user/Public/WWW/siteA   /home/user/Public/WWW/siteB00:59
AndorinKatoFlannel: So I suppose that you can't be sure whether those files are on the CD?00:59
mdgFlannel: we decided that kubuntu has ndiswrapper and ndiskgtk on the cd?  I was reading... sorry00:59
myk_robinsonFlannel: I meant as the root directory for Apache, not root user00:59
Flannelmyk_robinson: Righ, I know.00:59
icerootewsubach: read-online file-system?00:59
ewsubachiceroot: nope01:00
Flannelmyk_robinson: Would a subfolder for your username be sufficient? or do you actually need the webroot?01:00
MellowDudehi all01:00
rayluewsubach: show us the actual command you're using?01:00
^Phantom^do i need the control centre too?01:00
MellowDudedo u all know a good alternative to norton ghost01:00
myk_robinsonFlannel: not really sure. I have been doing a little reading and may have gotten confused. What do you recommend? I want to use a directory that does not require Root privileges01:00
Flannelmdg, AndorinKato: I know Ubuntu does.  Kubuntu almost certianly has ndiswrapper, but it's doubtful it has a GTK utility.  I can't verify, since I don't see a .list file, but you could open up the kubuntu CD in a file browser and look01:00
icerootMellowDude: what is norton ghost?01:00
JackGraykeep forgetting... how do you attach to the currently open x on the /host's/ side of ssh (i.e. how do you open applications and have them show up on the host's screen rather than -X over the client's)01:00

Flannelmyk_robinson: alright, then what we'll do is simply do some permission-magic to make it so you don't need to use sudo to throw stuff into /var/www/01:02
raylumyk_robinson: then why do you need virtual hosts?01:02
marca311^Phantom^: it has an IRC room. Same server as this, #mythtv_users01:03
Flannelmyk_robinson: The easiest way to do it is to add yourself to the www-data group (sudo adduser username www-data) and then sudo chmod g+w /var/www01:03
legend2440MellowDude: i use partimage.01:03
marca311^Phantom^: sorry I mean #mythtv-users01:04
myk_robinsonraylu: I read some of the tutorials online, and am just regurgitating what they claim i needed to do. That's why i came here, I already read some stuff online and it all seems to conflict with each other01:04
Flannelmyk_robinson: You'll have to log back in for the group addition to take effect, but you'll then be able to write to /var/www as your regular user01:04
mdgAndorinKato: you still with us?01:04
myk_robinsonFlannel: you mind if I make this private so i can keep up for a sec?01:04
Flannelmyk_robinson: I don't mind repeating or whatnot, but sure.01:04
AndorinKatomdg: Yes, just in PM with someone atm, thank you01:04
mdgoh okay01:04
^Phantom^Oh okay.  Thankies, marca31101:05

ryanpriorHilikus: no, heavier by a significant bit actually.01:17
bsmith_derspankster: I want to use my linux box as a server.01:18

ryanpriorsatellite: Please suggest improvements by writing Launchpad blueprints, filing bugs, and participating in the Ubuntu Brainstorm.01:19
raylubsmith_: i use no-ip.com for this purpose01:19
bsmith_raylu: are you working without a router?01:20
Hilikusryanprio really?? so xuvbuntu would  be better or remix will run well in terms of performance in a netbook?01:20
raylubsmith_: no, but the configuration isn't in my router anyway01:20
rayluHilikus: it01:20
rayluwhoops.01:20
rayluHilikus: it's more suitable for small screens01:20
bsmith_raylu: I set up an account with dyndns.org.  Does no-ip.com cost money?01:20
ryanpriorHilikus: I think that Xubuntu would be the easiest on your memory and processor; but xubuntu, kubuntu, and ubuntu assume that you have a full-sized screen, which makes the experience less enjoyable.01:21
raylubsmith_: if you want an "enhanced domain." otherwise, no01:21
myxoanyone know a site that could help me get Ubuntu installed on a Toshiba Satellite 8355, after it reads the disc the screen just stays black indefinitely after "Install" is selected01:21
raylu!alternate | myxo01:21
ubottumyxo: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD.  Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal01:21
satellite!livecd01:21
ubottuThe Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option.01:21
satellite!liveusb01:21
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about liveusb01:21
bsmith_raylu:  Will this conflict with dyndns.org?01:21
raylubsmith_: no, as long as you tell others to use your no-ip subdomain01:22
raylubsmith_: multiple dns entries can point to the same ip01:22
myxoraylu thanks! is the % near to 100 to say it works on "all" pcs lol?01:22
Hilikusryanprior so even if it would be lighter to run xubuntu, remix still runs well + with good screen usage?01:22
ryanpriorbsmith_: dyndns and no-ip do pretty much the same thing.01:22
raylumyxo: ubuntu isn't even near 100% pc support01:22
bsmith_ryanprior: Ok so setting up no-ip would result in not being able to view my site either.01:23
myxoraylu rofl01:23
ryanpriorbsmith_: the Netbook Remix works well on the netbooks I've tried.01:23
myxoraylu would a diff distrobution be more wide ranging? anything similar?01:23
raylumyxo: ubuntu intentionally only spports i386 and amd64 to reduce the workload01:23
ryanpriorbsmith_: That's not what I mean. no-ip would point to your website, and dyndns would also point to your website.01:23
raylumyxo: but you didn't really ask the right question01:23
ryanpriorHilikus: the Netbook Remix works well on the netbooks I've tried.01:24

RequinB4cool01:30
RequinB4thx01:30
ryanpriorCarlFK1: amen to that, Flash sucks01:30
RequinB4i guess if flash doesn't work i can always reinstall01:30
ryanpriorRequinB4: you can also just install 32-bit Flash01:30
RequinB4is there a 64-bit gnash or swfdec?01:31
CarlFK1I just installed FF3.5, hoping to make a 20 byte html page that lets me play a .ogv stream from an icecast server01:31
ryanpriorRequinB4: you betcha, 64-bit Gnash runs great01:31
jv2if i do iwconfig ra0 essid network_name it does not stick01:31

LordDragoni just installed 9.04 on my mac mini. it installed ok, but whenever i go to "power management" it locks up ubuntu. the mouse still moves but everything is frozen. any ideas whats wrong ?01:32
ryanpriorraylu: Gnash is a general virtual runtime engine, with a Flash compatibility layer.01:33
rayluisotherm: there shouldn't be anything in .disk. what filesystem and why?01:33
isothermthese files in /.disk: base_installable casper-uuid-generic cd_type info release_notes_url01:33

isothermfrom the lvecd01:33
mdgLordDragon: are mac mini ppc?01:33
LordDragonmdg, no its an intel mac mini01:33
isothermi know that base_installable is empty, but the others are small text files01:33
ryanpriorHodapp: At its core, it's a general media-display platform that can theoretically support any sort of programming interface.01:33
kad_heys brothers! anyone has used tripwire ! thx01:34
isothermi have a live usb missing those files, so it will not boot01:34
Hodappryanprior: interesting.01:34
rayluisotherm: i think that's only for the squashfs on the livecd. they shouldn't be there on an installed system01:34

jv2raylu: command was nm-applet --sm-disable from autostart01:35
raylujv2: huh?01:35
Amaethyes i did01:35
rayluAmaeth: could you show us your /etc/apt/sources.list and tell us if there are any files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d?01:36
myk_robinsonFlannel: got PHP problems.. PHP is enabled, but not working for the /var/www/Church directory. Firefox asks where to save the file01:36
jv2the command written in the autostart applications was nm-applet --sm-disable01:36
xeerFresh install of 9.04, added some dev packages so that I could compile MPD. Also, compiled lastest version of glib. Now 90% of programs are complaining about libgio-2.0.so.0 having an incorrect symbol. This is causing everything to fail.. where could I find the old release of this library?01:36
raylujv2: ...ok?01:36
myk_robinsonFlannel: I placed a PHP info test file in /var/www and it returns the PHP Version 5.2.6 information01:36
Amaethumm i add the ppa of smc before it crash01:36
ryanpriorRight now I'm running 9.04, which is essential as a development platform. However, my graphics card is better support in 8.04. If I install 8.04 on another partition and let it use my current home directory, will it wreak havoc?01:36
rayluAmaeth: i get the feeling that that is causing problems. perhaps you should comment it out01:37
jv2so i don't understand why it does not on the terminal ..01:37
isothermis there somewhere i can browse the files on a livced?01:37
jv2on jaunty nm-applet was enough to have the applet again01:37
mdgisotherm: what version ubuntu?01:37
ryanpriorisotherm: yes, you can mount -o loop theimage.iso01:37
rayluryanprior: most likely, no. but different versions of some apps might not like their configuration files. evolution and pidign come to mind, especially01:37
isothermi don't have the ISO anymore, this is the problem01:37
legend2440isotherm: ok i'm looking at those file  now what do you want?01:37
ryanpriorraylu: I use webmail and Empathy. Am I in the clear?01:38
rayluryanprior: hopefully :P01:38
Amaethraylu: i did that but i still have the same problem01:38
Amaethhttp://pastebin.com/d4cda993501:38
Amaethand i cnt uninstall any aplicacition to fix this01:38
ryanpriorhehe01:38
rayluryanprior: i think it'd be better to run 8.04 and just put 9.04 in a VM01:38
caffeinatedhello all01:38
rayluAmaeth: update before running upgrade, after removing the PPA01:39
Amaethumm oks01:39
ryanpriorraylu: I'd do that if this weren't my memory-anemic laptop with an old Celeron processor with no virtualization support.01:39
jv2in the terminal nm-applet --sm-disable returns ** (nm-applet:5269): DEBUG: applet_common_device_state_changed01:39
rayluryanprior: oh. you could consider installing the drivers for 9.04 yourself, then01:39

coleysraylu: Well im telling you right now, that some other sytems just display "Command not found" if you don't run as root. =P03:02
raylucoleys: and, like i said, that's because sbin isn't in your path but it's in root's03:02
usr13_joakimk: In the control panel you should see network connections. Or you can go to the command line and do ipconfig -a03:03
coleysraylu: Anyways ,better safe then sorry =) Sudo doesn't harm.03:03

rayluflanders: on my system, i don't have ubuntu-desktop installed because i wanted to get rid of cups03:45
therussianjig if I try to boot my laptop while not connected to a power source, I must hold the spacebar down, or the boot will hang, any ideas how to fix this?03:45
flandersThe description says that it is needed for updating my syste, raylu.03:45
flanders*system03:45
Guest27971quit()03:46
flandersNot ubuntu-desktop, raylu. ubuntu-netbook-remix package.03:46
rayluflanders: the only downside to removing the main virtual package is that if they think you need some new packages, they'll update the virtual package and your system won't pull them in automatically03:46
rayluflanders: i know, but it's the same thing03:46
usr13_freedumMan: Or you could test and see if it happens imediately or if it happens after a reboot or what.03:46
BingOback..03:46
flandersraylu, what do you mean? When updates are available, the virtual package will reinstall itself, along with its dependencies?03:47
freedumManusr13_, its happening when i ftp it, i checked03:47
rayluflanders: no, when updates to your individual packages are available, you'll still get them, but03:47
rayluflanders: if new packages are added as depdencies to ubuntu-netbook-remix, you won't03:47
BingOFreedumMan: whats the problem .. ?03:47
rayluflanders: it doesn't happen often, though, and it's unlikely that they'll be anything major. you can always see what you're missing with "aptitude -s install ubuntu-netbook-remix"03:48
flandersHmmmm.03:48
Blatzraylu: Its asking for my pass, so it looks like it got through.03:48
rayluflanders: my main concern is that removing the pulseaudio packages doesn't actually remove pulseaudio03:48
flandersSo what would an alternative be, raylu?03:48
rayluBlatz: then perhaps we are doing something wrong with sftp03:48
usr13_freedumMan: Is the client anonymous or a local user login or...?03:48
freedumManBingO, i would like to 755 chmod my files when a user uploads03:48
rayluflanders: i have no idea :P03:48
Blatzraylu:  http://pastebin.com/m1970bf0e03:48
freedumManit's a local user03:48
flandersI don't have pulseaudio in my Startup programs, and I am only using ALSA for evetything, raylu.03:48
Blatzraylu: I guess so03:48
flandersHowever, pulseaudio always runs in the background, raylu.03:49
rayluBlatz: btw, ctrl+d = logout03:49
BingOfreedumMan: Files or directories ?03:49
Blatzraylu: hehe, thanks03:49
therussianjig if I try to boot my laptop while not connected to a power source, I must hold the spacebar down, or the boot will hang, any ideas how to fix this?03:49
freedumManFiles, directories are working with right bitmask's03:49
cabreyflanders, why do you want to remove pulseaudio?03:49
BingOhmm..03:50
usr13_freedumMan: You may need to designate in the config file, like:  local_umask=022 or anon_umask=02203:50
rayluBlatz: well, sftp says it's using port 22, so03:50
rayluBlatz: edit ~/.ssh/config03:50
=== Guest95557 is now known as zero-jt
flanderscabrey: I don't need it, plus I am trying to minimize any programs running to squeeze out every last bit of juice in my battery.03:50
BingOfredumMans: so its mean you want to change its default permission/umask03:50
flandersIt's espcially needed for this MSI Wind u100 netbook. (Weaker-than-normal battery.)03:50
therussianjigflanders: you can edit the startup programs so it just doesn't boot03:51
cabreyflanders, removing PA will create more problems than it solves imo03:51
Blatzraylu: ah, ok I guess I did that for ssh, but not for sftp.  sorry to be so stupid. :P03:51
rayluBlatz: no, that's not the problem03:51
freedumManBingO, i need it to be 755 for files yes03:51
flanderscabrey: That is why I am wondering if I can disable it from running as a process in the first place.03:51
rayluBlatz: anyway, edit that file and put this in it:03:51
rayluBlatz: http://pastebin.com/m7c5ed69803:51
therussianjigflanders:  yes you can, just turn it off from the boot menu, I have already done this03:51
rayluBlatz: then, try just "ssh 192.168.0.30" without any other parameters03:51
Blatzok03:51
cabreytherussianjig, PA is per-user session, it still activaates upon call03:52
therussianjigcabrey: What?03:52
cabreytherussianjig, pulseaudio is per-user not systemwide03:52
flanderstherussianjig: How? It is nowhere in my startup applications.03:53
freedumManBingO, the vsftpd log file stats it's chmoding to 644 but im unsure what local_umask needs to be for 75503:53
therussianjigah, under my startup apps I have Pulse audio session manager03:53
BingOFreedumMan: in /etc/vsftpd.conf .. type this file_open_mode with 075503:54
BingOfreedumMan: use 0755 not 75503:54
pie-not-highhey, i have a problem with using the intel drivers for the i810 chipset. if i use the intel driver  instead of the vesa driver my monitor goes blank with the backlight off. Does anyone know what to do?03:54
flanderstherussianjig: Which version of Ubuntu are you using?03:54
therussianjigFlanders: 9.0403:54
vinomanin xfce, how to icons for quick launch programs on the upper toolbar?03:55
freedumManBingO, umm it's used to subtract permission bit masks on local umask03:55
flandersSame here.03:55
flandersKDE or GNOME?03:55
usr13_pie-not-high: There may be newer drivers from intel, check and see.03:55
cabreyflanders, removing/disabling PA will not give you better battery life, disabling compiz, however, will03:55
Blatzraylu: There is no config file in that dir, only "know_hosts"03:55
rayluBlatz: yup. create it03:55
vinomanexcuse me. how to add icons to upper toolbar?03:55
flanderscabrey: Already disable compiz.03:55
Blatzok03:55
cabreyflanders, i'm on a netbook with a 3 cell battery03:55

lufisHaving some trouble with nfs. Can someone take a look? sudo mount -t nfs 10.0.0.3:/media/disk /home/sam/hdd03:55
lufis ... I get "mount: Wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock [etc.]"03:55
flanderscabrey: I suppse you're right. I'll just leave pulseaudio running.03:55
freedumManBingO, i wonder if vsftpd is not using my config file?03:56
hirajoIve screwed up my firefox flash video codec... What do I do to fix it.. It only shows a little black stripe of the movie03:56

lufishirajo: why do you think you "screwed it up"?03:56
flandersOn a 3-cell? Are you serious?03:56
BingOFreeduMan : how ?.. whic version r u using of Ubuntu ?03:56
cabreyflanders, use a lightweight web browser like chromium or epiphany03:56
Blatzraylu: restart ssh?03:56
notdarkyethave you guys ever heard of an error where the filesystem will suddenly go read-only for all files?03:57
freedumManBingO, 8.1003:57
BlatzBingO: I can't connect to sftp through a non standart port.03:57
BingOFreedumMan: your config files means ?.. you r not editing vsftpd.conf ?03:57
flanderscabrey: On IDLE, with wireless turned off, with laptop mode running, the MOST I can get is 2:40 to 2:50 hours, never touching the mouse or keyboard!03:57
flandersBefore doing these tweaks, I could only get TWO hours, tops, same conditions.03:57
freedumManBingO, im sorry im not sure what your saying your config file means...03:58
BingOBlatz: which port you set in SSHD_config file except 22 ?03:58
flanderscabrey: Which netbook do you have?03:58
cabreyflanders, ouch... maybe because power management in the kernel is better for eee pcs?03:58
rayluBlatz: er, no. this is locally, not on the server03:58
flandersThat's Asus, eh?03:58
cabreyyup03:58
rayluBlatz: just run "ssh 192.168.0.30"03:58
BingOfreedumMan: ok leav it, did you put 0755 in local_umask ?03:58
flandersWell, damn.03:58
cabreyflanders, try crunchbang or even arch :/03:59
usr13_pie-not-high: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2009-April/045117.html03:59
flanderscabrey: I read a review about the MSI Wind u100, and as wonderful as it is (well-built, good specs, and full Ubuntu compatibility) it's 3-cell battery is weaker than comparable netbook 3-cell batteries.03:59
freedumManyes no luck03:59

cabreyflanders, you could try the array.org netbook kernel04:00

Blatzraylu: sorry, I'm tired.  :P04:01
eikenberryAnyone know of a technical description of the differences between debian and ubuntu? Things like the init system and such.04:01
notdarkyetraylu: no but i cannot open anything at all04:01
flandersIt lists MSI Wind on the front page, cabrey. But not in the install or support pages.04:01
raylueikenberry: debian supports like a billion architectures04:01
usr13_notdarkyet: df04:01
cabreyflanders, http://array.org/ubuntu/ MSI Wind is listed04:02
legend2440mazda01: http://code.google.com/p/savory/downloads/detail?name=Imaging-1.1.6.tar.gz&can=2&q=04:02
cabreyflanders, he doesnt have time to maintain those pages04:02
notdarkyetraylu: suddenly all of the files in my user path are read only04:02
raylueikenberry: and their packages in stable are a lot older than ours, in general04:02
Blatzraylu: Ok, with no port rule it connects through ssh04:02
BingOfredumMan: restart vsftpd and check which permission it give to new upload file..04:02
cabreyflanders, just dont use the -eeepc kernel04:02
eikenberryraylu. I know. I'm a long time debian user (10+ years).04:02
rayluBlatz: and no user either, right?04:02
Piciraylu: We sync our packages from debian unstable/experimental generally.04:02
raylueikenberry: oh04:02
eikenberryraylu. I know how most of the internals of debian work. I know ubuntu does some things differently (like system init).04:03
Blatzraylu: right04:03
usr13_notdarkyet: "user path"?04:03
eikenberryI was wondering if there was some  docs on these differences.04:03

PhrogzI installed server 9.04 and I guess I chose LAMP for apache, but now I decided to go with nginx. Can I just uninstall the lamp-server "unrecognized task" in aptitude and come out smelling clean?04:04
eikenberryPici. yes.04:04
BlatzBingO: ssh was figured out. sftp was not, but raylu helped me with a workaround04:04
notdarkyetI am gonna restart, be back if I still have a problem04:04
Blatzraylu: yes sftp works now, thanks04:04
eikenberryPici. It is more community/philosophical than technical.04:04
flanderscabrey: This will not affect any off my updates?04:04
flanders*of04:04
rayluPhrogz: unrecognized task?04:05
rayluBlatz: np. i suggest reporting a bug04:05
cabreyflanders, no, you will be using a non-ubuntu kernel (just derived from ubuntu)04:05
eikenberryJust a list of the big differences would suffice. I know about the different init systems. Are there any other big differences?04:05
Blatzraylu: ok, I'll look into it.  It would be with sftp, correct?04:05
rayluBlatz: probably... i don't think it has its own package/bug tracker04:06
flandersRoger. Thanks for all of your help, cabrey. I'm going to give this a shot.04:06
Phrogzraylu - aptitude shows me 395 installed packages, 26444 not installed, 2604 "virtual packages", and 13044 "tasks", which are all in a subcategory "unrecognized tasks"04:06
rayluPhrogz: oh, you're actually using the aptitude ncurses interface?04:06
flandersIt can't hurt, since if anything goes wrong, I'll just format and start from new. (I only have some documents and PDFs saved on here. Nothing else. A backup to USB stick will do fine.)04:06
Phrogzraylu - yeah04:07
Blatzraylu: humm, ok04:07
flandersThanks a ton, cabrey, and everyone else that helped.04:07
cabreyflanders, you dont even need to do that, just choose the normal kernel instead at bootup04:07
BingOblatz: sftp -Port=23 datz@192.168.0.3004:07
flandersOh.04:07
BingOblatz: sftp -oPort=23 datz@192.168.0.3004:07
flandersI always wondered how that worked.04:07
flandersWhen you boot up with a different kernel, nothing changes, aside from the kernel you're using? You don't get reverted back to older software or packages?04:08
rayluPhrogz: i'd suggest aptitude -s purge lamp-server04:08
BlatzBingO I had tried "sftp datz@192.168.0.30 -oPort=23" that didn't work04:09
Phrogzraylu - thanks, I'll check that out.04:09
cabreyflanders, nothing changes except the currently running kernel04:09
crdlbflanders: just the kernel04:09
bullgard4'~$ ekiga -d 4 > ~/tmp/ekiga.log20090629' obtained a log of 0 bytes length because I terminated this command using the 'Ctrl+C' command. How to end it properly for a meaningful log contents?04:09
flandersAnd what about security updates? Aren't they kernel-dependent?04:09
rayluflanders: some of the packages are modules that depend on the kernel, so which ones get loaded change. but the rest of your software, no04:09
cabreyflanders, not necessarily04:10
flandersAlright.04:10
flandersWell, thanks again guys. Going to give this a try.04:10
flandersI am holding all of you liable! I will sue for any and all damages done by this!04:10
flandersI'll see you in court!04:10

Phrogzraylu - Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "lamp-server";  and then it only says it will get rid of python-pkg-resources{u} python-setuptools{u}04:11

flandersTake care, all.04:11
BingOhmm..04:11
BingOBlatz.. wat about SCP .. did you check that ? hmm if SSH was working that SCP should work well04:12
rayluPhrogz: i don't really understand tasks, but tasksel may help you. i always install my software with just aptitude, so i don't really understand what installing a lamp-server did04:12

PhrogzOne of my CS professors in college told me a story about cray that I now wonder if it is true. That at one point the computers were all clockless, with the timing done by the appropriate length of fiber-optic cable. Differnt lengths to delay the signal the right amount to coordinate results.04:34

jayproraylu: why? just for the basic reasons why anyone would want an ftp server... transfer files04:57
tntchey, what package contains the actual drivers for sound?04:58
tntcthe snd-hda-intel driver specifically04:58
raylujaypro: but ftp is insecure. passwords are transmitted in cleartext04:58
raylujaypro: consider scp/sftp04:58
DdayHow do i check if my songbird is a .deb?04:58
jayproraylu oh i read someplace scp is not that great for transferring multiple files at once... that not true?04:59
raylujaypro: m...not that i know of. i use it all the time05:00
dragon_jaypro: i strongly doubt that statement.05:00
dragon_jaypro: i'd prefer rsync though.05:00
raylujaypro: on my lan, i use ftp because it's a bit faster and i'm not worried about security internally05:00
jayprohrmm...05:00
zx6renvyhey everyone05:00
brokenframehey, does someone know of any easy-to-use program to set up an ssh server?05:00
jayprowell, also i need to deal with macs and windows... so that kind throws out scp anyways05:00

MitsunariLet's pose this question here as well... I recently (read: last night) installed Ubuntu Studio on my Parckard Bell Easynote r4350. Everything else seems to be in order, except for the volume control hotkeys. Pressing once seems to get them stuck, ie. firing off continuously. In addition, this makes me unable to click anything on the gui itself, including the start-menu. However, the buttons work on launched programs such as Pidgin or Mo05:03
dragon_haha parker actually believed what i said.05:03
raylujaypro: also, filezilla for windows05:03

SirMooThis all came from trying to install sun-java. It would not allow me to do anything after, and just had a liscnese and said OK at the bottom.05:22
rayluSirMoo: you have to use the arrow keys or tab to accept it05:22
bazhangsdeb, a good question for #ubuntu-offtopic05:22

SirMooThis is the most modern version of Kubuntu.05:23
cirabisi???05:24

flandersI ask this because I do not need the hard drive running while I am reading documents or PDFs, but I use the mouse to scroll the pages.05:49
unitheoryaaqil, if you don't know how to edit configuration files you should use startupmanager instead05:50

Gh057hun73rI have an OLD ATi rage pro AGP vide card, I need drivers for it, even 2D is slow to the point that dragging a small window like xchat drops frames, how do I fix the driver in ubuntu 8.04?06:18
Daskreech!sound | badboy_06:18
ubottubadboy_: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP306:18
WIGGMPkDaskreech: did you try "sudo nvidia-xconfig"06:18
mobi-sheepmyxo: CTRL + ALT + [F1-F6] -- Try that.  Pick any one of those FX.06:18
DaskreechWIGGMPk: Yeah tha's what stopped X working06:18
tanathi've also tried playing with everything in the Sound Prefs, but still no sound06:18
Daskreech(I presume)06:18
WIGGMPkDaskreech: note the X in "nvidia-xconfig"06:19
myxomobi-sheep and if it remains black and unresponsive?06:19
DaskreechWIGGMPk: Ah umm >_>06:19
Daskreechno06:19
mobi-sheepmyxo: Are you online on same machine we're to configure on?06:19
Hossanyone know of an app to manage favorite TV channel streams?  I am not looking for a frontend for a MC, but rather just an app to consolidate favorite streams.06:19
myxomobi-sheep no, using two laptops, i'm on mine06:19
mzer0hi06:19
johnnyblazenbrb im gonna reboot and give it a try06:19
mobi-sheepmyxo: Okay.  It won't be unresponsive either way.  It's a command.06:19
myxomobi-sheep this is an ASUS, had no problems like this, toshiba satellite isn't so easy06:20
mobi-sheepHoss: Boxee / XBMC?  >_>06:20
DaskreechWIGGMPk: nope failed to load modules type1 freetype nvidia06:20
wapkomyxo : try to press 'esc' in grub and [e]dit the kernel line, remove quiet and splash, press enter and then b to boot with the new line, nothing is saved.. just to see what errors there are06:20
mobi-sheep!tv | Hoss06:20
ubottuHoss: http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), Kaffeine, kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Me-TV (GNOME), Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out06:20
mobi-sheepHoss: Not quite same thing.06:20
DaskreechWIGGMPk: that's all kernel stuff so I might need to reboot06:21
myxowapko ok06:21
Hossmobi-sheep:  These seem more like media center solutions.  Wouldnt either Boxee or XBMC be a bit more than what I need?06:21
WIGGMPkDaskreech: restarting the x server should be the same.. as long as the module is already compiled and running... try "lsmod | grep nvidia" if its not there.. sudo modprobe nvidia06:22
dethrayAlright, ubuntu is all configured how I want it, virtualbox is on, now what else can I do for fun... :P06:22
tanathwas there a recent update that affects sound?06:22

Hossmobi-sheep:  Yeah, thing is I want access through a centeral app not only to Fox.06:23
WIGGMPkDaskreech: figures.. you running jaunty?? i assume your using the 180 revision of the nvidia module?06:23
Hossdethray:  lol, I am installing VMware against my wishes to get mine to work.06:23
DaskreechGh057hun73r: That's should be supported by the radeon driver06:23
tanathlstarnes, in case you missed it: ubuntu 9.0406:24
SpherousDaskreech: Do you think this whole "Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary." message is causing the problem?06:24
Daskreechno the 96 I was using 173 but that seemed to stop X workin ala nvidia-config06:24
myxowapko after the splash screen it just remains black.06:24
DaskreechSpherous: That's quite worrying to me but I don't know enough to be vocally worried06:24
Gh057hun73rI dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but it didnt even ask me what driver to use, just wanted me to configure my KB.. how do I get ALL the options back?06:25
DaskreechWIGGMPk: ^^^^06:25
myxomobi-sheep it must not even be booting, because none of the f1-f6 did anything, just sat black.06:25
WIGGMPkDaskreech: alright.. gimme a second.. you need to remove the package and reinstall it.. happened to me.. I think its a DKMS problem06:25
Daskreechmyxo: Ah you got a splash thats good06:25
TheNewGuyhello06:25
myxodaskreech yea, thats all i get though06:25
DaskreechWIGGMPk: So go ahead and purge 96 ?06:25
Hossmobi-sheep:  You cant think of a light weight streaming manager app that I could try out?  Again, I wont be streaming this feed to any other machines, it will all be viewed locally.06:25
WIGGMPkDaskreech: 1 sec.. Ill get the package names for you06:26
SpherousDaskreech: Do you think there is anyway for me to back up whats on my windows partition to my linux partition via the live cd, then grab the info I want after a reformat of my windows partition from my linux partition and repartitioning my drives to wipe linux off and give windows all 350GBs?06:26

hateball!java | TheNewGuy06:26
ubottuTheNewGuy: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository06:26
DaskreechWIGGMPk: just purged dkms as well06:27
Daskreech!java | TheNewGuy06:27
myxowapko there are 4 lines to choose. one begins with uuid, other with kernel, other with initrd, and last with quiet06:27
tanathTheNewGuy, there are java packages in the official repository. you can install java from the repos via Synaptic package manager: System > Admin > Synaptic06:27
jerroomejonnyblazen /boot/grub/menu.lst06:27
mobi-sheepHoss: Well, VLC have this thing where you can stream the video you have.  But if you're talking about watching TV shows from Internet.  I'd say Hulu or something relatively close.  Also, use a different (light) browser.06:27
johnnyblazencan anyone give me some advice i need to know how to change the grub boot loader list how do i do this06:27
myxowapko got rid of quiet, the others  didnt seem like they'd be a splash06:27
wapkomyxo. its supposed to be the kernel line06:27
R_YoYo_Rjohnnyblazen, change order?06:27
Hossmobi-sheep:  Lighter than firefox?06:27
jerroome!ask | jonnyblazen06:27
ubottujonnyblazen: 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. :-)06:27

If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP306:28
tanathsomething (a recent update maybe) eliminated sound on my system06:28
mobi-sheepHoss: Yup.  Using it solely for web streaming.  A clean interface too.06:28
WIGGMPkDaskreech: "sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-glx-96 nvidia-common nvidia-96-kernel-source nvidia-96-modaliases nvidia-96-libvdpau" you shouldnt need to purge DKMS.. but oh well.. not sure if there is a nvidia-96-libvdpau package but its worth a shot06:28
myxowapko ahhh, i got it this time06:28
Hossmobi-sheep:  Have you had a chance to mess with Boxee?06:28
wapkomyxo. great. now u should be able to see where it borks06:29
DaskreechWIGGMPk: done06:29
mobi-sheepHoss: No.  We spoke about this last night, didn't we?06:29
TheNewGuyanyone know how to install java ?  i down loaded it from java.com.06:29
TheNewGuyI have it in my down load list06:29
WIGGMPkDaskreech: and just install them again.. should take care of it.. let me know (restarting would be best and I think required)06:29
R_YoYo_RTheNewGuy, !java06:29
TheNewGuybut I have no idea what to do with it.06:29
DaskreechTheNewGuy: look at what ubottu just said to you06:29
myxowapko i thought you might say that, but all it did was spam spam spam spam and now its black lol, no errors06:29
WIGGMPkDaskreech: ah wait06:29
myxowapko i'm confused06:29
R_YoYo_R!java06:29
ubottuTo install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository06:29
WIGGMPkDaskreech: you should prolly get rid of nvidia-settings too (although it might of went with everything else)06:30
SpherousDoes anyone think there is anyway for me to back up whats on my windows partition to my linux partition via the live cd, then grab the info I want after a reformat of my windows partition from my linux partition and repartitioning my drives to wipe linux off and give windows all 350GBs?06:30
TheNewGuyI did... I am brand new with this...  I don't even know what it is saying... sedo???06:30
DaskreechTheNewGuy: sudo06:30
R_YoYo_RSpherous, explain it better... your explanation confuses me06:30
Hossmobi-sheep:  I thought I spoke with someone named nimja or something.  Dont recall.  I love what I have seen from Boxee, but it just seems provides more than what I need for a desktop machine.06:31
R_YoYo_RSpherous, why not just partition windows too have all 350?06:31
TheNewGuyok, sudo, what is that?  do I need it to install java?06:31
mobi-sheepHoss: What is it exactly you're looking for?  Surfing Hulu on Firefox isn't satisfactory?06:31
SpherousR_YoYo_R: I can't seem to reinstall grub, and I need to save info from my windows partition before I reformat, plus I need info off of my linux partition after the reformat06:31
tyler_dthats awesome TheNewGuy06:31
R_YoYo_RSpherous, i dont get the whole transfer to linux part deal06:31
R_YoYo_RSpherous, re-installing grub is tit .. why cant you reinstall?06:32
DaskreechTheNewGuy: yeah essentially. it changes your permissions to allow you to interfere with the system. In this case by installing Java06:32
wapkomyxo. are you able to ctrl+alt+f1 while it shows the splash or scrolling text06:32
overlordCan anyone tell me how do i convert a .flv file to .3gp ?06:32
SpherousR_YoYo_R: I keep getting an error saying it can't read stage1 correctly.  Daskreech was helping me, but couldn't figure it out06:32

DaskreechSpherous: which page were you following?06:33
TheNewGuyDask is there a linux primer on the net... one designed for beginners?06:33
wapkomyxo. maybe try the recovery mode and see if you can get in the system06:33
SpherousDaskreech: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub06:33
R_YoYo_RSpherous, you have to boot the live cd  and reinstall it from there06:33
DaskreechTheNewGuy: :-) Quite a lot but lets walk you through this. Go into your settings menu and look for synaptic06:34
SpherousR_YoYo_R: I am booted into the live cd, if I was on my linux partition, I wouldn't have a problem, lol06:34

DaskreechSpherous: what's differnt?06:36
Hossmobi-sheep:  Yeah, Hulu is nice.  I just loved the demo that I seen on Boxee about all the channels ready at the fingertip.  I though maybe there was a light-weight app out there that could manage channels like that without all the other bells and whistles Boxee has to offer.06:36

eshaasei have two linux systems setup, how come transferring a particular file from one to another results in 11MB/s but transferring the same file in the other direction results in 3MB/s?06:48
DaskreechTheNewGuy: Ok Ubuntu is run by a company called Canonical They offer support for Ubuntu you can pay for06:48
DaskreechThey have a policy of preferring opensource software06:49
Severity1TheNewGuy, buy books from amazon06:49
Severity1there are plenty of those06:49
DaskreechTheNewGuy: So they have two types of software supported and open source06:49
nomad77TheNewGuy: this is unofficial but worth the read  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Jaunty06:49
DaskreechTheNewGuy: Which means they have 4 repositories. or what we call repos06:49
DaskreechTheNewGuy: Main is supported and open source. Restricted is supported and not open source (things like drivers to make hardware work)06:50
TheNewGuyok06:50
DaskreechTheNewGuy: There are two others universe which is not supported and open source and multiverse which is not supported and not open source06:50

Omar87WIGGMPK: Ok I the problem was that the sound system stopped working altogether after a failed attempt to switch from ALSA to OSS. But, apparently that solution didn't work. The problem is fixed now, but I believe adding that file, instead of fixing my problem, made another problem, which is that my internal and external sound speakers both work together, which is not good.07:20

hpierceAnd e[X]odus, do you know what a *.cab file is under Windows?07:24
TheNewGuyok, found it.  :-)07:25
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: not to sound rude.. but if your running a web based trading application.. that im sure involves some kind of financial commitment.. then why are you using an OS your not familiar with to run the application?07:25
e[X]sodusyes i know what a .cab is07:25
DaskreechWIGGMPk: Excitement?07:25
DaskreechWIGGMPk: And I'm not sure how you conclude it's a financial commitement :)07:25
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: now wherever it is.. you need to open the terminal and type.. "cd ~/path/to/the/bin/file"07:25
hpiercee[X]sodus: a *.deb serves a similar function.07:25
TheNewGuybetter security.  and I'm trying to learn linux... I thought ubutu would be easy enough.  but everyone talks in code.07:26
hpierceFor non-debian Linux such as Fedora or SuSE, *.rpm is the package extention.07:26
DaskreechTheNewGuy: Yeah that's how computers are my Mom complains about the same with people who use Windows07:26
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: talks in code? the modern OS (IE: Windows) has stupified people and we have become lazy..07:26
TheNewGuyI used to design software.  and program a little. did not know I needed to be a pro07:26

tesla_windoze?07:27
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: you dont.. but you have to expect a learning curve.. you dont jump from a Windows PC and then just expect to know everything.. it takes time and patience..07:27
qe2eqeWIGGMPk, Windows has trained us for Windows, which isn't dumber or smarter, just clickable. Also happens to be a great way to ensure vendor lock-in07:27
TheNewGuyok, guys.. I get it.  a learning curve.07:27

TheNewGuycomand lines work fine.07:28
tesla_hey new guy let me give you my number one tip that made things much easier.......when using the terminal for anything TAB will auto complete things for ya.... great for error checking and long filenames07:28
hpierceI saw someone say they were losing Faith in Ubuntu...07:28
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: after you navigate to the folder its saved in (in the terminal of course) run this "sudo sh jre-6u14-linux-i586.bin"07:28
e[X]sodusI like Ubuntu, i've tried 3 others in the past and were way over my head07:28
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: should prompt you for a password, and just put yours in07:29
hpierceUbuntu (and Linux) unlike Windows is not about faith if MS will fix it, but about knowledge and the ability to fix it.07:29
qe2eqeWIGGMPk, Same abstract skills that make you a windows guru make you a linux guru. You spot unique and pertinent strings in error messages and outputs and google them for clues. And I'd argue that windows software suites allow for easier and more competent controll of more parts than linux...07:29
User__I accidentally the whole ubuntu.07:29
Daskreechqe2eqe: Eh?07:29
qe2eqeWIGGMPk, because people make the 80/20 decision when writing drivers, unftly, linux is in the 2007:29
qe2eqeEver gotten a driver disk with .rpms?07:30
hpiercege2eqe: I come from a time before Google... I can tell you that is not the case among the talented.07:30

Daskreechqe2eqe: Yes actaully07:30
e[X]soduslinux has come such a long way in the last 5-6 years07:30
hpiercee[X]sodus: I agree it is much more accessible... and that is good :)07:30
* e[X]sodus remembers the google beta lol07:30
WIGGMPkqe2eqe: your getting out of the scope here.. drivers rely on the manufactor and are influenced by market control and the presence (and time frame) on the scene.. Linux.. written in 1994.. lots of catching up to do.. but enough of this.. its better suited for #ubuntu-offtopic07:31
tesla_my comment has fallen on def ears I see07:31
DaskreechWIGGMPk: So I have 3 missing kernel modules how do I attack this?07:31
qe2eqeWIGGMPk, but also no, if you follow any kind of strict trust model. That same level of driver control for custom software is akin to unprotected sex in the caveish darkness of no source code.07:31

WIGGMPkqe2eqe: what upsets me is it worked fine in Intrepid.. and just took a dive.. either the driver or dvd+rw-tools.. cause nero linux looks like its going to fail too07:39
tesla_tis true07:40
qe2eqeWIGGMPk, alot of time the difference between proprietary apps for hardware use and free.... is configuration req'd. Try and find maybe what the conf defaults in your proprietary working solution are compared to other.07:40

qe2eqeWIGGMPk, yeah, sometimes I wish synaptic was smart enough to roll back only subsections of the package tree to specific dates of known working... it probably is, i just haven't rtfm07:41
WIGGMPkqe2eqe: its the kernel or package.. cause its failing again07:41
TheNewGuywhen I tried it the second time, it did not ask for the password and said it could not open the file.07:41

mrmentalI was in the process of installing and going through partitioning. I set it up to where 6% of my hdd would be ubuntu and the rest Cp07:49
DaskreechWIGGMPk: done07:49
WIGGMPkDaskreech: returned no errors?07:49
qe2eqeWIGGMPk, have you googled for specific issues with linux and this guy? Firmware updates?07:50
mrmentalIt was partitioning, but was stuck at 0%, so I waited about ten minutes and then it says something along the lines of 'Failed to Partition, Action aborted'07:50
TheNewGuyok, I am not in the correct desk top ... I guess.07:50
qe2eqeWIGGMPk, are you using a known working cable? =/ had that happen before07:50
DaskreechWIGGMPk: Nope purged dkms and fakeroot07:50
DaskreechTheNewGuy: :-D who's are you in?07:50
WIGGMPkqe2eqe: yes.. and there is a bug report opened in launchpad confirming the issue07:51
mrmentalI say to myself 'Ok thats weird, I am just going to restart my computer and forget about linux for now'07:51
n2diymrmental: how big is the hd?07:51
mrmental500gb07:51
TheNewGuyok... I switched.   wow... I am reaching back to my cpm days.  can't belive I am remembering this stuff.07:51
WIGGMPkqe2eqe: its an internal drive.. sata for a laptop.. and yes.. dont worry about it.. I know what the problem is but cant fix it07:51
leaf-sheepDrive. Laptop. Ubuntu.07:51
TheNewGuyanyone remember the cpm operating system?07:52
n2diymrmental: if your talking to me, use my nick, so it gets highlighted.07:52
mrmentalSorry07:52
mrmentaln2diy: My hdd is 500gb07:52
WIGGMPkDaskreech: ok, you removed dkms or it auto went with.. ??07:52
qe2eqehermitmode, thats a tiny little unintuitive link that says 'english'.... as the final step in retrieving issue07:52
Daskreechauto went07:52
TheNewGuyholy crapp... I'm old07:53
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: it download yet?07:53
mrmentalI restart my computer and go to boot Xp, it gets past the scrolling bar screen and then goes to the 'Checking C: if you wish to skip press any key now'07:53
TheNewGuyI think my linux has gas.   it says inflating07:53
mrmentalThen it flicks Blue Screen and restarts07:53
DaskreechTheNewGuy: New nick then?07:53
TheNewGuydown loaded and just ran it.07:54
n2diymrmental: so how many gigs did your give Ubuntu? 6% is unusual, recently I partitioned, and I wasn't asked what percent to give you Ubuntu, but how many gigs?07:54
TheNewGuynew nick?07:54
mrmentalAbout 30 gigs?07:54
mrmentaln2diy: About 30 gigs07:54
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: lol.. so your good now?07:54
TheNewGuynot sure, it ran and installed.  do I need to reboot?07:55
TheNewGuyHow can I check to see if it is installed?07:55
n2diymrmental: ok, but did you tell it 30 gigs, or 6 percent?07:55
mrmentalI run the Ubuntu live cd and go to check my hdd and it says 'Failed to Mount'07:55
DaskreechTheNewGuy: no need to reboot. Type java07:55
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: or open something that uses java07:56
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: you might have to update your alternatives...07:56
mrmentaln2diy: I used the slider, I had it to where ubuntu had 30gigs (Up above the slider it had the percentage)07:56
qe2eqemrmental, was it originally a primary partition, or extended, that you installed ubuntu to?07:56
TheNewGuywhere do i type java?07:57
ChrisDHey guys07:57
Daskreechterminal07:57
n2diymrmental: ok, after you re-sized the partiton, did you make it bootable, format it, etc...?07:57
qe2eqemrmental, also, what does fdisk say about this disk that doesn07:57
* ChrisD needs help with eeebox display drivers (intel gma 950 i believe)07:57
WIGGMPkDaskreech: ok run "sudo apt-get --purge autoremove"07:58
TheNewGuystill showing the old version.  but in terminal it came up.07:58
ChrisDCan anyone please help?07:58
qe2eqeChrisD, state your issue?07:58
DaskreechWIGGMPk: Did07:58
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: in the terminal... type "sudo update-alternatives --config java"07:58
mrmentaln2diy: Sorry but I am not quite as computer literate as I thought I was, I dont know what fdisk is. There was no option I dont think for bootable/format or anything, I just used the slider, it all looked good and I pressed 'Next'07:58
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: then pick the one you just installed07:58
ChrisDqe2eqe, well, I just installed eeebuntu, but everything related to video performance lags07:58
TheNewGuyThere is only 1 program which provides java07:59
TheNewGuy(/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java). Nothing to configure.07:59
ChrisDqe2eqe, even when i switch desktops (I've got an eeebox b202, everything works out of the box, it just lags like hell)07:59
n2diymrmental: that wasn't me suggesting fdisk. Ok, after you re-zized the disk, and you run next, the new partition info is displayed, right?07:59
WIGGMPkDaskreech: ok.. "sudo apt-get install nvidia-173-kernel-source nvidia-173-modaliases nvidia-glx-173"08:00
qe2eqeChrisD,  open terminal, type glxinfo | grep render08:00
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: type "java --version"08:00
mrmentaln2diy: No it wouldn't resize, it said 'Failed to Partition, Action Aborting'08:00
hpiercecan someone suggest a ubuntu oriented dev channel?08:00
qe2eqeChrisD, let me know the just of that line08:00
qe2eqeChrisD, let me know the jist*, even, i.e., summarize it if you must08:00
ChrisDqe2eqe, no jist, just this "direct rendering: Yes08:01

mrmentalqe2eqe: I guess it wouldn't be a secondary partition, I already had Xp installed and well in use. Most of my hdd was filled08:01
FloodBot2TheNewGuy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.08:01
qe2eqeChrisD, try running glxgears, does that lag?08:01

ChrisDqe2eqe, 60-100 fps08:02
qe2eqemrmental, hm. Did you resize the partition? Sometimes that gets bugged.08:02
TheNewGuysorry.. been using linux for 4 hours.  3 hours trying to get java working08:02
DaskreechTheNewGuy: really/08:02
TheNewGuyyea... 4 hours total08:02
Daskreechthat's unusally long08:02
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: honestly.. its 30 million times easier installing it from the repositories08:02
ChrisDTheNewGuy, it should install itself in firefox08:03
TheNewGuyok.08:03
DaskreechWIGGMPk: Speaking of easier from the repos08:03
TheNewGuyok,08:03
mrmentalqe2eqe: I believe that is what I was attempting to do? I was just trying to install Ubuntu so I could dual boot Xp and Ubuntu08:03
qe2eqeChrisD, I think your problem is one of two things. Either you don't understand exactly how not powerful your netbook is, or a fan or duct or something on your machine isn't working, your processor is running slower to keep from crisping.08:03
Daskreechreinstall a driver?08:03
WIGGMPkDaskreech: ok.. "sudo apt-get install nvidia-173-kernel-source nvidia-173-modaliases nvidia-glx-173"08:03
TheNewGuyok, well I am don with it for now.   how can I install my updates?08:03
n2diyhpierce: ubuntu-kernel?08:04
qe2eqelol @ newguy. Too many options for java, too many...08:04
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: do you know why you need this .bin file? EXACTLY why??08:04
RubHello!! My name is Rubén Ahumada from Mendoza. I study in institute "Nuevo Cuyo" with the teacher Sergio Alonso08:04
ChrisDqe2eqe, well, I ran a live cd of 6.10 on an AMD K6-2 400mhz with 384 ram and a 4 meg video card and it ran a lot smoother :(08:04
qe2eqemrmental, well, I've never had an issue, but alot of things that can resize partitions also have disclaimers like 'this isn't always pretty'08:04
redstickDoes anyone know of a repository with SNORT or int?08:05
Daskreech!hi | Rub08:05
ubottuRub: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!08:05
redstickon it*08:05
qe2eqeChrisD, =/. What's it?08:05
ChrisDqe2eqe, maybe hardware acceleration if off or something?08:05
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: you can do updates 2 ways.. "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" from the command line.. or System > Administration > Update Manager08:05
TheNewGuythe program that I am runing sent me to the java.com to down load it because the version loaded was incorrect.08:05
qe2eqeChrisD, hardware acceleration = direct rendering08:05
DaskreechWIGGMPk: run a dkmsbuild first08:05
ChrisDqe2eqe, I meant Ubuntu 6.1008:05
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: do you personally install ANY other copies of java or any OTHER packages on your machine?08:06
mrmentalqe2eqe: I don't know, I am just a bit frustrated right now, my hdd is failing to mount now, like when I try to access it under the live cd, it says 'Failed to Mount'08:06
WIGGMPkDaskreech: DKMS should do it automatically08:06
qe2eqeChrisD, i mean, whats slow08:06
Daskreechit's not how do I do it manually?08:06
ChrisDqe2eqe, eh, I guess? Sorry haven't used Linux for a while now, but even xp runs a lot better, at least firefox scrolling doesn't lag like mad08:06
WIGGMPkDaskreech: i have no idea08:06
TheNewGuyno I did not install anything else... oh, I tried to install flash.08:06
TheNewGuyit is no long in the update manager08:06
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: humor me for 30 mins..08:06
ChrisDqe2eqe, well, everything except the terminal08:06
TheNewGuysure08:07
RubI new in Ubuntu, i want learn much about linux and ubuntu08:07
TheNewGuyby the way... thanks for all the help.08:07
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: run this in terminal.. make sure you close synaptic or update manager before this.... "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras"08:07
qe2eqemrmental, well, there should be at least two volumes that it lets your try to mount. If windows didn't eat linux, then the latter should be gracefully mounted. Either way, your windows should be ntfs, which sometimes has issues in linux if you don't shut your windows down proper08:07
Rubmy english is not very good, sorry08:07
mrmentalI mean I can paste the details as to why it cannot mount08:07
TheNewGuyI am going to get a basic book tomarrow... I need to learn the basics.  although you guys got me pretty far.  I know 100 time more now then when i started08:08
Nicolas__Hi! I need to Partition my Windows Partition to make a larger partition for Ubuntu. (I'm on a HP Laptop.) Does anyone know any good programs to use?08:08
TheNewGuyok, what will this do wig08:08
n2diyhpierce: does this disk have data on it that you need to recover?08:08
ubuntunomNicolas__: use Live Cd and GParted that comes with it08:08
qe2eqeChrisD, I don't know what to say. I've never heard of eeebuntu. If you have an eeepc, I'd recommend modifying or at least learning defaults from the canonical eeepc distribution.08:09
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: did you run that command?? the package name "ubuntu-restricted-extras" is called a meta package.. it will download and install a series of packages most commonly desired that are NOT included with Ubuntu (due to their philosipy or however you spell that word) including.. adobe flash, sun java jre, etc08:09
Rubi need basic help for somebody to approve a matter08:09
ubuntunomNicolas__: u find it under system as partition manager08:09
Nicolas__Ubuntunom: I used Wubi to install.08:09

Rubi need teach somebody to approve me08:10
qe2eqeAnalysis of Systems =)08:10
ChrisDqe2eqe, well it's a distro based on Ubuntu, it's just that they say everthing has been optimized for the eee series of netbooks, that is sort of true, everything works out of the box, even wifi, but X lags, even in Xfce408:10
DaskreechWIGGMPk: says there is no source08:10
Rubsorry for my english08:10
cheebzhullo08:10
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: trust me.. one of the first things I do when I install ubuntu.. is install ubuntu-restricted-extras first.. then I install ubuntu-tweak (which will give you tons of software to easily install from the application and give you tweaks for the system)08:10
WIGGMPkDaskreech: damit.. do you have the headers installed????08:11
libtechChrisD: i have the same problem i think, im using a 1000he08:11
DaskreechWIGGMPk: Umm Dunno which headers?08:11
WIGGMPkDaskreech: cd /usr/src and list the directory.. do you see.. "linux-headers-2.6.28-13-generic" and the other one?08:11
tenachRub: What do you need approved?08:11
snakdocubuntu-tweak is that package name ?08:11
Nicolas__ubuntunom: I heard it doesn't work good with HP. I have the gparted cd downloaded, anyway I can mount the files instead of having to burn them? I'm low on CDs.08:11
ChrisDlibtech, yeah, something tells me I really should have went for Mandriva 2k908:11
causasuiCan someone here help me set up pureftpd?08:11
WIGGMPksnakdoc: yes.. but you need to add repositories to do it08:11

ChrisDlibtech, good luck bro08:12
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: look at this site http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ to install ubuntu-tweak.. click download and it will walk you through adding "repositories" and downloading the application.. let me know when the restricted extras get done so we can see if it fixed your issue08:12
snakdoctrying to restore system at moment anyway was almost done and system rebooted when i didn't wan tit to08:12

TheNewGuyI get a "hit" and then "ign" on some of them.08:14
qe2eqemrmental, to conserve space in the irc channel, it's polite to put blocks of text in a url. That way I can click and look at your exact hdd mounting error, but these guys don't get hit with bookoo lines of terminalese to scroll around08:14

gatto.doc may more smaller then .rtf08:26
n2diyxhema: why would you ask a subjective question?08:26

TheNewGuymade it back.08:26

mrmentalqe2eqe: In the terminal correct? What are the possible negative effects?08:30
qe2eqemrmental, because if you screwed the pooch on your format, not all is lost untill you start writing more to the partition08:30
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: its a lot of packages.. but it will be worth it..08:31
Futasaycan someone help me???08:31
gattoUsally, I change the main theme08:31
n2diyxhema: well, you might have to create your own? I use Audacity to create sound file, and from there, I can trouble shoot the sound system.08:31
qe2eqemrmental: the only limit to that question is your imagination. ;)08:31
xhemayes, i have audacity, but again there are so many options08:31

qe2eqeRub, So, I'm in luck. I want to try ubuntu, and I have that extra partition you  mentioned. It's a dell/compaq/hp...08:33
phoe6hello, I find that if I add export PATH=/a/bin:$PATH to .bashrc and do source .bashrc the changes are not persistant. If log out of ssh session and login back again, I lose the settings. How do I make it persistant?08:33

WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: a list of what your installing.. hmm... http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ubuntu-restricted-extras this might help08:34
qe2eqemrmental, well, I doubt it's going to nuke anything. You can mount it as read only for the extra precaution... but I've used that command a number of times now, with no issues.08:34
yellabstvasht for ubuntu it does not matter where the partition is, its not slower, so it does not matter..08:35
gattoFutasay desktop edition?08:35

tenachGood luck, Rub08:35
FutasayYes desktop edition08:35
mrmentalqe2eqe: Thank you, I am going to attempt it, wish me luck08:35
qe2eqemrmental, I think you would just add readonly to the end of that 'mount -t ntfs -3g /dev/sda1/media/disk -o force'08:35
yellabsFutasay, seems enough, so check cdrom for errors08:35
qe2eqemrmental, good luck.08:35
Rubthank's!!08:35
n2diyxhema: ok, so you have a known good sound source? Then double check your sound settings, beware of little red indicators under the gain/volume sliders, they toggle mute on and off.08:35

GarpHi.09:22
Nehyx!hi | garp09:22
ubottugarp: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!09:22
qe2eqemrmental, yeah, easy. fdisk, gparted... eduardo nailed it09:22
GarpYesterday I asked about how to maintain a machine that has no internet connection. For answer, I got:09:22
Garp!offline09:22
ubottuIf you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://apt.alturl.com/ - See also !APTonCD09:22
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: well thats good at least.. however I dont really know how to adjust the fonts.. you might try download the mscore fonts09:22
qe2eqeiashwaniarora, just browse the applications and search through the synaptic package manager09:23
qe2eqeGarp, lol.09:23
World705i get [waiting for headers] when trying to update or intsall anything from apt-get, can any one help ?09:23
TheSageGood morning channel09:23
GarpSuch an answer was not really good. Because it doest say *how* to get the package list on the offline machine.09:23
Weust`!hi | Weust`09:23
ubottuWeust`, please see my private message09:23
hermitmodeGarp: if you have a machine connected to the internet you can copy all installed .deb @ /var/cache/apt/archives09:23
NehyxGarp: you want update machine without internet, is that?09:23
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: this is a long shot but try "sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts" however I think this should of been installed already09:23
GarpNehyx: yes.09:24
TheNewGuythis is so wierd.. ti works but I can't see everything...09:24
NehyxGarp: use lts versions and download 8.04.1, 8.04.2... versions09:24
Garphermitmode: copyin which /var/cache/apt/archives ?09:24
mrmentalqe2eqe: http://pastebin.com/db50e2b409:24
GarpNehyx: the whole one ?09:24
hermitmodeGarp: all of the *.deb files cause thats the directory apt-get install put all the package09:25
GarpOK, before you go further, I just found some interesting link: http://pypt-offline.sourceforge.net/09:25
iashwaniarorathanks a lot09:25
Garpdoes anybody ever tested this? Thanks.09:25
qe2eqemrmental, wwwwwwooooooowwwwwww09:25
TheSageIs there a place I could get a block diagram of Ubuntu?09:25

TheNewGuywigg, thanks for your time.  i'll have to get this working tomarrow09:25
Garphermitmode: offline, I have no downloads...09:25
mrmentalqe2eqe: I take it I royally fucked something up?09:25
NehyxGarp: I always used ubuntu with internet, and if you hasn't got internet, updates are innecesary ;-)09:26
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: you could try this too.. "sudo update-alternatives --config java" and select "/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java" this might fix it09:26
GarpNehyx: it fix bugs, allow for new pkgs, etc.09:26
NehyxGarp: yes, but the most bugs are security09:26
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: alright man.. have a good night.. but try those last steps.. install the msttcorefonts and change the java config09:26
GarpNehyx: or enhancements.09:27
NehyxGarp: and the most packets, firefox, evolution... needs internet09:27
GarpNehyx: I know that a internet is good, but in that case, I dont have.09:27
n2diymrmental: that is an ntfs partition, you need ext309:27
TheNewGuyThere is only 1 program which provides java                                               (/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java). Nothing to configure.09:27
qe2eqemrmental, yes.09:27

DysonReturnsboth running ubuntu09:28
qe2eqemrmental, Yeah. If you got a usb drive, copy all your 'doze files over there for safekeeping09:28
NehyxGarp: try to install new packets from another PC, I never tested that :P09:28
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: you need to install the package again then.. "sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-restricted-extras" should do it.. (prolly cause of the packages that were missing before)09:28
draggeri think the Services i stoped is "System communication bus"09:28
mrmentalqe2eqe: Ok I need to get my neighbors external hdd but that will hav eto wait until morning proper. And then?09:29
GarpNehyx: well, there are a few problems. You want to be able to perform 'apt-get update' and then 'apt-get upgrade'09:29
aacostathats the weiredest thing i can nly ssh to my server when im on the wired network not on the wireless09:29
TheNewGuyok, loaded, checking java09:29
GarpNehyx: "downloading pkgs you need' is "apt-get upgrade"09:29
NehyxGarp: you can buy a wifi in ebay, and go to free wifi zones :)09:30
edouardpaacosta, the wireless gives you the same range of IPs ? (I assume you use DHCP)09:30
qe2eqemrmental, hold on, actually. I need to google and rule out the possibility that the ubuntu installer can try to install everything into an ntfs partition side by side with windows09:30
duke_is it because of NoScript i already passed the sites on whitelist still crashing when i connect09:30
TheSageIs there a place I could get a block diagram map of the Ubuntu system?09:30
aacostai use dhcp on everyting except the eeepc09:30
WIGGMPkTheNewGuy: if it doesnt work.. then ill try and catch you tomorrow.. i can hardly stay awake right now lol sorry09:30
edouardpqe2eqe, I think only wubi can do that09:30
GarpNehyx: If you have some money to give me,, I can have internet access ofor that machine, if you dont, we'll do without.09:30
mrmentalqe2eqe: Well right now the installer isn't reading the hdd because I unmounted it09:30
aacostabecause it was giving me problems with the wireless09:30
aacostaso i had to put in the ips manually09:30

n2diyaytekin: traceroute?09:35
aacostaeverything seems fine09:35
aacostathats why im trippin09:35
Superninjayes everything seems fine09:35
qe2eqemrmental, (the program is either mbr or it's on a mounted partition. )09:35
edouardpaacosta, it might be your router that is preventing wireless client to communicate with the rest of the lan09:35
duke_everyone gets help besides me kk :/09:35
aytekini dont know how to like09:35
mrmentalqe2eqe: Hmm. So perhaps I should restart and try to boot windows again?09:35
edouardpaacosta, I have an option in my netgear (called wireless isolation) which prevents wireless clients to see the lan, they can only access the internet09:35
qe2eqemrmental, yeah. Try running in safe mode...09:35
SuperninjaInternet port is 5765, no 879609:36

pedestrianentranwhats the ubuntu way to permanently add a variable to my PATH? i understand the export command won't save the change between reboots?09:51
qe2eqehermitmode, i bet it's not a webcam?09:51
hermitmodepedestrianentran: try sudo nano /etc/environment09:51

kuron2diy: nothing at all :/09:52
Jimi_NeutralSorry i didnt realise i did ask to ask a question....i thought i only asked one.....well i need some major help with it as i have been helped up to a point but now i need more help, so it kind of needs a private chat tbh so th room doesnt get flooded09:52
pedestrianentranhermitmode: Hmm i was just looking in /etc/profile09:52
kuron2diy: in keyboard window. i have the hotkey switch set to alt+shift. but it does not work...09:52
hermitmodekante: ohhh my bad did not read it all...09:52
n2diykuro: ok, right or left?09:52
edouardppedestrianentran, you can look on your .bashrc/.bash_profile too09:53
kuron2diy: it doesn't say in the list.  just alt+shift. thats it09:53
kantehermitmode what d'you mean?09:53
xarvhjust launching the 'amule' in ubuntu jaunty launches no graphical interface whatsoever... Am I launching some sort of server? If so how do I get the client?09:53

ttmrichtertenach: Easier than waiting forever for backports certainly!  :D09:55
mrmentalqe2eqe: Windows is still fucked, how do I get it back to where I can view the contents of my hdd through File System?09:55
qe2eqekante, if a movie doesn't play back right in a properly configured player, it's been encoded poorly. This might be a problem with the way your camera records.09:55

^Phantom^no...09:57
^Phantom^wait...09:57
qe2eqemrmental, I have a hypothesis i'd like confirmed by a vet... but perhaps you could just get fdisk to rewrite the partition table09:57
Justin15hey everyone, can somebody help me installing the new firefox-3.5rc3.tar.bz2??09:58
n2diykuro: hmm, but can you switch between japanese and your other layout? I only play with english, and english-dvorak.09:58
svjI need help for JeOS and keyboard mapping09:58
kbrosnanJustin15: extract to some place run firefox09:58
^Phantom^no none running09:58
mrmentalqe2eqe: I think the spacing is wrong on your mount command? And that won't format or otherwise harm the files on my hdd if I rewrite the partition table will it?09:58
kantestrange09:59
Daverocksjerrrooome: sounds like the actual stream is borked09:59
edouardpaacosta, :D09:59

^Phantom^k10:00
kuron2diy: i dont: think i ever enable japanese keyboard, but i was messing around with one of the settings. and thats why i backspace got changed.  but still no japanese10:00
qe2eqemrmental, yeah, it's possible. if you can wait till morning and back it up first, I'd do that10:00
Justin15kbrosnan:thank you very much i didn't think about it :)10:00
^Phantom^woah10:00
^Phantom^lonnnnnnnng list :S10:01
svjdpkg reconfigure console setup does not change my keyboard layout. Any ideas on how to change to danish qwerty keyboard latin110:01
qe2eqemrmental, but even if you do erase your partition table, your data should be mostly safe, although you could lose file names.10:01
Daverocksjerrrooome: np, i'm not a video person though, try asking in #mplayer #ffmpeg or #videolan10:01
mrmentalqe2eqe: Yeah I would like to back up everything that needs be and then I can try the partition table rewrite. Perhaps I will through in my Xp Recovery Cd for safe measure too10:01
qe2eqemrmental, safe as in recoverable, but not friendly.10:01
mrmentalqe2eqe: well that is good to head10:01
n2diykuro: ok, if you didn't enable japanese keyboard, how do you expect to switch to it? Anyway, 5am here, going to bed, gl.10:01
mrmental**hear10:01
^Phantom^i'll pastebin the iostat10:02
qe2eqeqe2eqe, i'd have tried the recover cd by now =)10:02
mrmentalqe2eqe: Is there any way I can contact you in the morning?10:02
