| ZykoticK9 | beliveyourdream, disabling pulse audio does have some rather serious side effects - so proceed with caution. Ubuntu devs think pulseaudio is a better audio manager then alsa, it's what they want you to be using. BUT I do disable pulse for my Game/HTPC box, for some compatibility issues. | 00:00 |

| NetLarIrvine | I tried to install Karmic, but it will not start X server | 00:04 |
| bastid_raZor | my numerical keypad on the right side of the keyboard no longer outputs numbers.. instead it moves the mouse cursor. Number Lock is on but still moves the mouse. how to get to numerical pad back? | 00:04 |

| NetLarIrvine | ok | 00:04 |
| patapouf | laymansnerd: What are the feature your looking for ? | 00:05 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: just changed to dvorak a month or 2 ago, this issue started a couple of days ago and no its not a special dvorak keyboard | 00:05 |
| VCoolio | bastid_raZor: ctrl+alt+numlock if i remember correctly | 00:05 |
| doink1212 | radtoo: hit a snag on the compiling | 00:05 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: Does anything show up in Menu > System > Administration > Sessions regarding Dvorak? | 00:05 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: once you have set it to dvorak? | 00:05 |
| bastid_raZor | VCoolio; i just tried that turning the keylock on then off.. still moves the mouse. might you know where this setting or shortcut key is? if so i would disable it | 00:06 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: I dont see a Menu > System > Administration > Sessions | 00:06 |

| bastid_raZor | VCoolio; also off then back on. same | 00:06 |

| Lamo | 3rd time this week my comp froze and i lost work no key combo would work. and now when i open log viewer to see what went wrong it turns grey and becomes unresponsive? how the hell is this every going to become a distro people use at a office with crap like this? maybe i should switch to centos with no compiz. | 00:08 |
| esde | Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04 I have a movie enocoded with IV41 and I can not get it to play, how do I install this codec? | 00:08 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: click on your ubuntu start/meun button, go to System, Administration and scroll down to Sessions | 00:08 |
| patapouf | esde: I really suggest you vlc to play your videos | 00:08 |
| SeaPhor | esde, google mencoder | 00:09 |
| Radtoo | doink1212: Well, if it doesn't seem related to some missing dependency that is not installed, you're quite deep in "experienced user" land now. Need to try different revisions from svn, check snapshots, try different versions of gcc, perhaps grab a debugger and fix source code... that type of stuff. | 00:09 |
| SeaPhor | and esde --what patapouf said... | 00:09 |
| Ademan | bazhang: ah cups uses ipp, thanks | 00:09 |
| esde | i do use VLC, it throws an error too | 00:09 |

| doink1212 | Radtoo: i have some errors if you don't mind taking a moment ot look at them? | 00:09 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: I dont see a Sessions listing under Menu > System > Administration I see lots of other items but no sessions | 00:10 |

| esde | patapouf: i use VLC, any ideas? | 00:10 |
| Guest2816 | WHAT THE FUCK!!! | 00:10 |
| Guest2816 | this dekorator don't have apply menue | 00:11 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: when you get to the sessions preferences window, there is an options tab > click the box that says "remember running applications" and see if that makes a difference. | 00:11 |
| Radtoo | doink1212: okay. chances are low that I can figure out the problem without opportunity and time to tinker, but I can have a look. | 00:11 |

| esde | play it | 00:11 |
| y_2_k | Windows messed up something on a partition of my External Harddrive, and it says (when using chkdsk) that it is RAW. But linux doesnt recognize the partition, and windows cant access it without formatting, but there is lots of important stuff on it. help please! | 00:12 |
| eiku | I have just tried to edit my /etc/fstab to change some /dev/* to UUIDs (for my external hard disk). But now, only root has the right to mount the partitions on that disk. Why ? | 00:12 |
| bazhang | http://fixunix.com/ubuntu/525880-cannot-play-avi-files-ubuntu-7-04-a-2.html esde | 00:12 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: do you mean startup applications? if so I already have that option checkmarked and have for some time | 00:13 |
| patapouf | esde: Than with Vlc, it' just a matter of openning the file .. right ? | 00:13 |
| esde | this is the first video i have not been able to play. it throws an error that it doesnt have the right codec. | 00:13 |
| Dr_Willis | y_2_k: 'raw' i think means its unallocated - what filesystem is the external drive? | 00:13 |
| abbazabba | a couple of questions for you good folks,, the easier one... what is your recommended torrent client? | 00:13 |
| y_2_k | it was NTFS | 00:13 |
| bazhang | esde, see the link above | 00:14 |
| patapouf | esde: In case it's doesn't work with VLC .. I guess you can try with mplayer | 00:14 |
| y_2_k | and RAW isnt unallocated... | 00:14 |

| Dr_Willis | y_2_k: Id suggest going to #windows and seeing if they reccomend any tools. the ntfs-recovery tools in linux - tend to be.. minimal | 00:14 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: must have to log in and out to get it to start | 00:14 |

| lstarnes | hugodor: you do need to be registered in order to speak there | 00:15 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: log out or restart? | 00:15 |
| patapouf | esde: Did you install it from Medibuntu ? with the restricted extras ? | 00:15 |
| esde | no i did not, is there a way to install just that package? | 00:16 |
| bazhang | esde, if you read the link I provided, you will see you need to convert it before playing it in vlc | 00:16 |
| abbazabba | postscript: i'll give it a try | 00:16 |
| mdg | cosmol - log out | 00:17 |
| abbazabba | a tougher question, is there an irc file server for ubuntu? | 00:17 |
| esde | i did read it, but the vBulletin is hard to read and follow. | 00:17 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: Handy to be able to print the dvorak laybout from the Keyboard dialog | 00:17 |
| th0r | I want to install virtualbox to run winxp in a vm. Should I install virtualbox-3.0 or virtualbox-ose? | 00:17 |
| eiku | has somebody an idea for my UUID problem | 00:17 |
| bazhang | esde, you could try with ffmpeg or winff | 00:17 |
| eiku | ? | 00:17 |
| SeaPhor | esde, bazhang knows wat he's talking about, he helped me and vlc is the way ;-) | 00:17 |
| Dr_Willis | th0r: i tend to use the one from the virtulabox web site. it has a few more features. | 00:17 |
| postscript | abbazabba: What do you mean by IRC file server? As in, dcc's on a trigger? | 00:17 |
| ersin | i cant connect from osx to ubuntu vinagra, i get connection refused, how can i open my vnc port ? | 00:18 |
| esde | SeaPhor: i have vlc, its all i use. | 00:18 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: did anything happen? | 00:18 |
| patapouf | bazhang. esde, SeaPhor : First time I ear you need to reencode a video to see it !! | 00:18 |
| patapouf | doesn't make any sens | 00:18 |
| bazhang | esde, then try converting with ffmpeg / winff | 00:18 |
| Dr_Willis | the encooder tools support more formats then the players do... sounds logical to me.. | 00:18 |
| th0r | Dr_Willis: that, I think, would be 3.0. In the howto (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-virtualbox-220-in-ubuntu-904-jaunty.html) it talks about installing both (either) but doesn't explain the diff. Both are in the repos | 00:19 |
| patapouf | bazhang. esde, SeaPhor : I you can encodeit, you can surely watch it | 00:19 |
| bazhang | patapouf, its a very old and unused codec | 00:19 |
| abbazabba | postscript: i remember back in the day joining efnet and getting some files via servers.. goto a room, a bunch of people would be serving, message them, see their files.. you upload something to get a ratio, download what you want and there you go | 00:19 |
| esde | just sudo apt-get install jjmpeg ? | 00:19 |
| abbazabba | i haven't done it in a while but i don't think it'd be something that stopped | 00:19 |
| postscript | abbazabba: fileservs, those depend on the IRC client | 00:19 |
| Dr_Willis | th0r: the one from the web site is not in the repos.. it has more features. USB support, and sata 'emulation' are 2 of its fetures i know of. | 00:19 |
| Dr_Willis | esde: ifs ffmpeg. and winff is a front end to it.. | 00:19 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: not sure waiting to see if it switches back to qwerty randomly | 00:19 |
| esde | does anyone know how i get the medibuntu package? maybe it has it | 00:19 |
| patapouf | esde: Have a look to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu, ensure to install w32codec, mplayer, | 00:20 |
| cabrey | !medibuntu | esde | 00:20 |
| ubottu | esde: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 00:20 |

| th0r | Dr_Willis: I am downloading from http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads. But there is a repo line in the howto and when I added that 2.2, 3.0, and ose all show up in synaptic | 00:20 |
| esde | so its just an add-on? | 00:20 |
| Dr_Willis | th0r: the company added a repo. thats nice of them. | 00:20 |
| postscript | abbazabba: the general term for them is, but as for the scripts that do the sending, those are what depend on the IRC client | 00:20 |
| abbazabba | postscript: okie dokie, i'm on pidgin right now, i'd want to do it separately, whats a good irc client? | 00:21 |
| Dr_Willis | th0r: its proper to say its not in the 'official' repos. :) i guess then.. | 00:21 |
| th0r | Dr_Willis: true...it is a virtualbox.org repo | 00:22 |
| postscript | abbazabba: I don't know for linux, honestly. | 00:22 |

| Lus | Anyone here good with gdm? I'm connecting to my Jaunty machine through Cygwin/X (I've got that all sorted out). Is it possible to connect remotely to a user session that was started locally? e.g. I logged in user zed locally, and now want to access his desktop remotely without logging in a second time. | 00:22 |
| cabrey | abbazabba, you can try xchat | 00:22 |

| Dr_Willis | Lus: or freenx. | 00:23 |
| abbazabba | cabrey: do you know a lot about xchat? haha and fileservs | 00:23 |
| cabrey | abbazabba, i use xchat. and what about file servers? | 00:23 |
| Caleb_ | Today I MIGHT be getting jaunty from linux magazine...Dunno yet | 00:23 |
| Cosmo1 | I have tried a couple I prefer Klavaro so far\ | 00:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Lus: there used to be some tools/tricks to make an appready running app one one display, reappear on a different display. but it never worked very well. | 00:23 |
| abbazabba | cabrey: i want to set one up | 00:23 |
| Lus | Dr_Willis: Ah, I thought X would just pass along the session from gdm. I'll give VNC a shot then. | 00:24 |
| cabrey | abbazabba, ok, which protocol would you want to use? | 00:24 |
| Caleb_ | Right now i use hardy heron | 00:24 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: welp it switched back to qwerty for no reason again | 00:24 |
| abbazabba | cabrey: by protocol you mean...? | 00:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Lus: Time to increase your 'X' Skills.. :) No X does not work that way. | 00:24 |
| nipec | hey, does somebody know a alternate software application to jscalibrator ? | 00:24 |
| cabrey | abbazabba, samba, nfs, netatalk, ftp, etc | 00:24 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: must be some key combo making it do it. | 00:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Lus: what if one connected to 3 different machines and ran X apps? :) that would get to be a mess.. | 00:24 |
| nipec | jscalibrator seems to be very old :D | 00:24 |
| nipec | and the developers webpage isn't reachable anymore... | 00:25 |
| Lus | Dr_Willis: Yeah, no kidding. I just got through learning iptables, so I was hoping the obvious way would work :P | 00:25 |
| Radtoo | nipec: what type of software is it, even? | 00:25 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: were you switching and back at one point in the beginning of using Dvorak? | 00:25 |
| Lus | Dr_Willis: Serves me right for not really reading the man pages | 00:25 |
| Cosmo1 | I went throuh the keyboard shortcuts and didnt see anything | 00:25 |
| nipec | a application to configure a gamepad | 00:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Lus: ages ago.. one would just have a 'x terminal' and all it did would be display the X apps running on the server. :) | 00:25 |
| nipec | http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/jscalibrator | 00:26 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: were you just typing in the chat window when it happened? | 00:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Lus: i mean an 'X terminal' in the sence of a Minimal machine that just ran X.. and that was it. :) not a 'xterm' window. | 00:26 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: I think I was when I was first setting it up | 00:26 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: do you alt + tab between windows a lot? | 00:26 |
| ProfessorX | Why does my destop look like this and I install ubuntu-desktop? http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/5914/ubuntuu.png | 00:26 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: yes I do | 00:26 |
| Alpha7 | can someone help me my hard drive partation is mess up and its suppose to be two partations only heres my remote desktop access vnc://ASUS.local::5900 | 00:26 |
| abbazabba | cabrey: preferably dcc on irc | 00:26 |
| cabrey | abbazabba, what? | 00:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Alpha7: you may want to clarifh what you are doing to the channel.. your statement is a bit vague... | 00:27 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: maybe its something with the window key and tab??? I usually accidentally hit the window key | 00:27 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: looks like you dont have a window manager going try running 'metacity &' in the terminal window? | 00:27 |
| Lus | Dr_Willis: I was trying to go for a setup similar to that, but it sounds like VNC is where it's at. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! :) | 00:27 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: if its a vnc session. You may need to configure vnc to run the proper programs. | 00:28 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: so far I haven't seen anyone else posting about Dvorak keyboard setting not staying set.... | 00:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Lus gnome has a 'share current desktop via vnc' feature. Or you could have 1 Or more (or a dozen) 'hidden' vnc desktops running you connect to as needed. | 00:28 |
| irad | everytime i log out and back on in Gnome, my sound volume settings are all muted and lowered, is there a way to save it the configuration where all the settings are up and running | 00:29 |
| Alpha7 | My hard drive partitions is mess up, It somehow combined into one. heres my remote desktop access vnc://ASUS.local::5900 | 00:29 |
| whatis_tux | is there a panel that has a start button that sticks out from it? | 00:29 |
| Dr_Willis | whatis_tux: clarify that a bit... sticks out? | 00:29 |
| Graviton | Cosmo1: Does it switch back while you are using it? | 00:30 |
| ProfessorX | Dr_Willis: I ran your command. All it change was the look of the top bar of the terminal window. | 00:30 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: it ran a window manager.. depending on what vnc server/sessions/configs you are using.. vnc runs nothing by default. | 00:30 |
| whatis_tux | Dr_Willis: I mean the icon for the "start" launcher is bigger then the panel height , it overlaps it | 00:30 |
| ProfessorX | I install GNOME though. | 00:30 |
| rocik_opera | :) | 00:30 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: then you need to tell the vncserver to run gnome.. the command for that is 'gnome-session' | 00:31 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: and why are you running the vncserver as root? thats not a safe thing to do. | 00:31 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: what program you using to chat? irssi, i.e. console app | 00:31 |
| TheNewGuy | Howdy everyone, can someone help me with a printer driver issue? umbutu 9.04 did a search for the driver for my canon mp460 but came up with nothing. What would you reccomend? Can do a manual search? Thanks! | 00:31 |
| Dr_Willis | TheNewGuy: check cups.org to see if the printer is even supported. | 00:31 |
| ProfessorX | Dr_Willis: Its only for testing | 00:31 |
| TheNewGuy | Thanks Doc! | 00:31 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: I'm not sure trying to figure out when exactly it does it, I use pidgin for irc chat | 00:32 |
| TheNewGuy | prof, what does that mean only for testing? | 00:32 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: what vncserver are you using? i know 'vnc4server' uses .vnc/xstartup to define what windowmanger/tools to start | 00:32 |
| KaiZ | hi, does anyone know how to remove the prompt that appears after you tell ubuntu to shutdown or restart? | 00:32 |
| Dr_Willis | vnc is a very flexiable tool.. that has a lot of things to learn about. :) | 00:32 |

| Dr_Willis | x11vnc = shows current. gnomes tool also = current session, most others = 'seperate hidden sessions' | 00:35 |
| Cosmo1 | mdg: I know | 00:35 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: I just now trying dvorakymin typing tutor - I don't get it | 00:35 |
| Hilikus | how do i make ubuntu be able to play more than one sound at the same time?? | 00:36 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: if thers to be NO 'currently running local desktop' on the machine.. you want to not use x11vnc, use one like i said vnc4server, or one of the others. tightvnc, or so on. | 00:36 |
| mneptok | Cosmo1: what is the issue? | 00:36 |
| * mneptok is a former Dvorak user | 00:36 | |
| ProfessorX | Ok, I will try vnc4server. So I do sudo apt-get vnc4server? | 00:37 |

| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: its in the repositories.. yes... | 00:37 |
| Dr_Willis | !info vnc4server | ProfessorX | 00:37 |
| ubottu | ProfessorX: vnc4server (source: vnc4): Virtual network computing server software. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu7 (jaunty), package size 1063 kB, installed size 2484 kB | 00:37 |
| miltb | Is there a way to know what xorg.conf is being used by the LiveCD? | 00:37 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: not I got dvroak7min working :) | 00:38 |
| ProfessorX | Ok, I did sudo apt-get install vcn4server. How do I start it? | 00:38 |
| mdg | Cosmo1: not/now | 00:39 |
| Radtoo | Hilikus: well sounds like your hardware isn't natively capable of this then, so I guess you'll have to use some sound server. set up arts mixer, use esd, use arts, use oss3... theres a lot of ways. Can't particularly recommend one or the other though. | 00:39 |
| mdg | LOL | 00:39 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: You may want to read its man pages.... | 00:39 |
| Deborah | Hi, I am a guy, this is my wifes laptop lol | 00:39 |
| Cosmo1 | mneptok: my keyboard layout keeps seemingly to randomly switch back to the qwerty layout and I cant figure out why | 00:39 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: the command fro most all vncservers to start is 'vncserver' with whatever options you want | 00:39 |
| `Onyx | Sure it is, Deborah >_> | 00:40 |
| lobf | hey guys | 00:40 |
| lobf | I'm brand new to ubuntu, and I'm having some trouble mounting am ISO | 00:40 |
| tenach | Hello lobf | 00:40 |
| mneptok | Cosmo1: did you set Dvorak as the default keymap for your session? | 00:40 |
| Cosmo1 | yes | 00:40 |
| lobf | It's listed in places but not with the "mount" command or the "df" command | 00:40 |
| tenach | lobf: Querying you | 00:41 |
| lobf | does that make sense? | 00:41 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: you WILL need to edit the .vnc/xstartup to make it run a proper desktop/window manager.. it defaults to 'twm' for some silly reason. which is not installed | 00:41 |
| tenach | lobf: I hope that link I sent you helps. | 00:41 |
| Deborah | Here is my dilemma (and hers, lol) she wants ubuntu instead of vista the problem is that 8.04 does not work with her RTL8187se wireless card. And 9.04 opensource video driver sucks for running XBMC and Boxee. Is there any way to get the wireless function with 8.04 so she can revert back to it? | 00:41 |
| Cosmo1 | mneptok: I completly removed qwerty from the layouts but it still switches back | 00:41 |
| lobf | tenach, it seems a bit command line heavy :( | 00:42 |
| Radtoo | Hilikus: ah... oss3 - I meant oss4 of course. The easiest solution on the wiki is this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting#Getting%20more%20than%20one%20application%20to%20use%20the%20soundcard%20at%20the%20same%20time | 00:42 |
| tenach | lobf: You want a GUI? | 00:42 |
| SeaPhor | ProfessorX, Dr_Willis the cmd is vncviewer -via username@IPAddress IPAddress::Port | 00:42 |
| mdg | Deborah: whats the name of the wifi card? | 00:42 |
| Deborah | Realtek RTL8187se | 00:42 |
| Dr_Willis | SeaPhor: thats to start the viewer - yes.. :) but to start the server is what he asked.. i think. | 00:42 |
| mneptok | Cosmo1: that's because your GNOME session defaults are QWERTY | 00:43 |
| lobf | tenach- well, like I said, I'm pretty new to ubuntu, and not totally comfortable with it yet | 00:43 |
| tenach | Okay | 00:43 |
| tenach | lobf: jISOmount should do the trick | 00:43 |
| lobf | like | 00:43 |
| KaiZ | does anyone know how to remove the prompt that appears after you tell ubuntu to shutdown or restart? | 00:43 |
| lobf | http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2553827&postcount=3 | 00:43 |
| tenach | lobf: I mean gISOmount | 00:43 |
| lobf | what the hell does that mean? | 00:43 |
| Radtoo | Deborah: does she have an ati video card? | 00:43 |
| tenach | lobf: It's a program that will let you mount them without command line knowledge. | 00:43 |
| michalski-bj | hi, uhmm Im having some hard disk problems, when I run fsck it exits with error code 4, tells me to run manually, I do, and it shows correction after correction asking for my approval. Im worried something is wrong | 00:43 |
| Deborah | yup ATi Radeon x1270 | 00:44 |
| tenach | lobf: It should be in your Add/Remove | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | michalski-bj: backup any thing imporntant first then befor having it fix everything is always a good idea | 00:44 |
| lobf | yeah, i found it | 00:44 |
| lobf | thanks a lot dude | 00:44 |
| lobf | i'll give it a shot | 00:44 |
| Deborah | the problem is, I think it is called tearing, when XBMC is the active window it makes the screen flicker/glitch out. | 00:44 |
| SeaPhor | ProfessorX, Dr_Willis look t the VERY Bottom of this, the "ammendments" http://www.wood-bee-co.com/woodbeeco/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=40&Itemid=52 | 00:44 |
| mneptok | Cosmo1: sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup | 00:44 |
| SiCreToR | does it need format if you are running ubuntu 9.04 32bit and you want to install 64bit ? | 00:44 |
| Cosmo1 | mneptok: I went to keyboard preferences and set it to USA Dvorak and removed every other option | 00:45 |
| mneptok | Cosmo1: use the above comamnd | 00:45 |
| tenach | lobf: If you need help with it let me know. :D | 00:45 |
| Radtoo | Deborah: Its not entirely a solution perhaps, but if this is a card supported by the radeonhd driver an update to a 2.6.30 or newer kernel enables support for a good degree of acceleration through xorg DRI. Not trivial, but perhaps an option of sorts. | 00:45 |
| michalski-bj | !pastebin | 00:45 |
| SeaPhor | thats for 9.04 Dr_Willis and ProfessorX | 00:45 |

| giaras | hi | 00:46 |
| michalski-bj | Dr_Willis: http://paste.ubuntu.com/208649/ | 00:46 |
| SeaPhor | Dr_Willis, it was tons easier in pre-9.04... | 00:46 |
| michalski-bj | Dr_Willis: is that bad? | 00:46 |
| Dr_Willis | michalski-bj: no idea... | 00:46 |
| Deborah | ok, kewl I will learn to update meh kernel and report back. I heard enabling vsync through compiz should work but I install simple-ccsm and comiz settings manager and now my windows are not functioning like they should. | 00:46 |
| michalski-bj | :/ | 00:47 |
| mdg | Deborah: see link at bottom of this page > http://forums.msiwind.net/osx-software/great-news-regarding-rtl8187se-wifi-module-t3986.html | 00:47 |
| lobf | tenach: it's telling me that the file is not an ISO | 00:47 |
| lobf | but it is definitely an iso | 00:47 |
| tenach | What is the iso extension? | 00:47 |
| Dr_Willis | SeaPhor: i just run vnc4server, and connect via 'vncviewer remotebox:port#' - im not sure what you are going on about. :) hes on a server with no local X going from what i gather. Not shareing a current/logged in desktop. | 00:47 |
| lobf | I can open it in archivemounter | 00:47 |
| tenach | Hm. | 00:47 |
| Cosmo1 | mneptok: it is set to generic 105-key because my keyboard is not in that list | 00:47 |
| lobf | it's Fallout 2 [US].iso | 00:47 |
| mdg | Deborah: oops that mac | 00:47 |
| lobf | maybe i should try burning it | 00:47 |
| miltb | Hey, is there a way to know what xorg.conf was generated by the live cd? | 00:48 |
| Dr_Willis | SeaPhor: system->preferances->remotedesktop lets me share the current visiable desktop just fine. So im not sure what fix's that site is doing either. | 00:48 |
| Mobi | hello everybody , how can i deinstall xfce desktop environment ? | 00:48 |
| Mobi | would like to know the command :) | 00:48 |
| tenach | lobf: I see your issue as a bug; let me check it out and see if I can help you fix the problem. | 00:48 |
| lobf | fantastic | 00:48 |
| lobf | thanks a lot man | 00:48 |
| tenach | lobf: Is your iso on a Windows partition? | 00:49 |
| tenach | or in your home folder? | 00:49 |
| lobf | being able to run fallout is a big consideration is keeping linux :P | 00:49 |
| lobf | it's on my desktop | 00:49 |
| mneptok | Cosmo1: that command is how you set Dvorak system-wide permanently | 00:49 |
| lobf | /home/nick/Desktop/Fallout 2 [US].iso | 00:49 |
| tenach | lobf: Rename the file to get rid of the spaces and [] | 00:49 |
| SeaPhor | Dr_Willis, i log in locally and remotely daily, and 9.04 has messed that all up, but, if u look at the whole tut, and adjust the settings for 9.04 via the amendments,,, should do it | 00:50 |
| lobf | what about quotes? | 00:50 |
| Deborah | shuckleberries | 00:50 |
| mdg | Deborah: try this "sudo modprobe -v r8180" | 00:50 |
| Mobi | does anybody have an idea about "how to deinstall xfce" ? | 00:50 |
| Cosmo1 | mneptok: I didnt see a dvorak option maybe I missed it | 00:50 |
| SeaPhor | Dr_Willis, but he has to forward the prt on his router | 00:50 |
| tenach | lobf: if there are quotes in the name get rid of those too. gISOmount seems to not like them. | 00:50 |
| Deborah | lemme boot into ubuntu, be back soon with different nick | 00:50 |
| lobf | i misunderstood you initially | 00:51 |
| lobf | hold on | 00:51 |
| tenach | lobf: okay | 00:51 |
| churl | I'm having issues unmounting my flashdrive. I've tried umount and killing the PID | 00:51 |

| SeaPhor | Dr_Willis, 5900 is the default | 00:52 |

| ghostofaphoenix | I am going to try to upgrade the kernel as other user suggested. No, I was thinking of rolling back (i have the iso) but I remember the pain of getting wireless functional. It is a long story :( Someone, somewhere made a driver that worked the problem was that everytime I rebooted the laptop it would need to be reinstalled. | 00:57 |
| ghostofaphoenix | I was hoping fixing the screen tearing would be better than going through that again. | 00:57 |
| mdg | ghostofaphoenix: yeah you have to add it to startup - forgot the steps. I would do a fresh reinstall. The card uses the r8180 driver and that's included in 8.04, so sudo modprobe -v r8180 should work | 00:58 |

| mdg | TheNewGuy & ghostofaphoenix: Thanks for answering | 01:14 |
| Patrickaaaa | but the but the file browser doesnt see it | 01:14 |
| TheNewGuy | sure | 01:14 |
| mdg | Does anyone know if Dell printers work in Ubuntu? | 01:14 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: Is it a hidden file? | 01:15 |
| ZenMasta | Hello, I'm having trouble updating ubuntu. I'm getting errors such as could not download repository indexes. Is there a way to "reset" to what might be default? | 01:15 |
| TheNewGuy | dell offers linux, I would be surprised if they don't | 01:15 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: .filename ? | 01:15 |
| patapouf | mashedpgravy: well keep your home directory .. it's contain the user config .. | 01:15 |
| fiver22 | @ mdg -all dell printers should worl | 01:15 |
| Dr_Willis | mdg: dell printers are normally rebranded printers of some other type.. check cups.org for your specific printer to see how well supported it is | 01:15 |
| mashedpgravy | and does anyone know if an Nvidia Nforce4 chipset based AMD 939 motherboard will work in ubunutu? | 01:15 |
| fiver22 | er, work | 01:15 |
| ghostofaphoenix | lol, mdg, check this out, I installed compiz using synaptic, wouldn't let me enable, uninstalled it with complete removal and reinstalled from command now it works lol | 01:15 |
| mdg | I thought the dell printers were actually lexmark, which I heard did not work under linux | 01:15 |
| mashedpgravy | it's an EVGA NF41 motherboard with AMD Opteron 165 cpu and a crappy old Nvidia TNT2 PCI video card for the time being | 01:16 |
| Dr_Willis | mdg: it will depend on the exact printer.. I doubt if 'all dell printers' are linux compatiable.. | 01:16 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: If the filename starts with a period (.) it is a hidden file and will not show in the file manager. | 01:16 |
| mdg | ghostofaphoenix: well that's crazy! | 01:16 |
| Patrickaaaa | file:///home/Patrick/Azenis_Theme/KDM_Login/AzenisKDM.tar.gz | 01:16 |
| Patrickaaaa | this | 01:16 |
| Patrickaaaa | its not | 01:16 |
| Patrickaaaa | i see it in my broserwer but when i click install a new theme | 01:17 |
| Patrickaaaa | it doesnt see it | 01:17 |
| fiver22 | @ mdg: your printer will LIKELY work | 01:17 |
| dsdeiz | is there a default gtk theme? | 01:17 |
| ghostofaphoenix | does anyone know the command to update the kernel? | 01:17 |
| ProfessorX | te_: That is what I'm using to connect. | 01:17 |
| patapouf | mashedpgravy: Use the LiveCD .. you will be set ... | 01:17 |
| mdg | fiver22: it is getting to be about 4 years old now | 01:17 |
| mashedpgravy | oh crap, i completely forgot about that LOL | 01:17 |
| Dr_Willis | mdg: I got a 15 yr old HP laserjet 6l :) | 01:18 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: it is a compressed file | 01:18 |
| mdg | Dr_Willis: I love old HPs! My 5150 set itself up :) | 01:18 |
| fiver22 | @ mdg that's what's nice about linux/ubuntu -it works well with older hardware | 01:18 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: Maybe you need to uncompress it first? | 01:18 |
| patapouf | mashedpgravy: you can even manage to install the proprietary driver from the LiceCD to see the performance of 3D | 01:18 |
| Patrickaaaa | i dont think so but i will try | 01:18 |
| aplund | Where should I go for help for buildling with prevu? | 01:18 |
| Dr_Willis | mdg: windows7 no longer had drivers for it. :() | 01:18 |
| TheNewGuy | Ghost, could you talk me through this? | 01:19 |
| ogra | aplund, #ubuntu-motu | 01:19 |
| phr0stbyte | eth0 disappeared after a motherboard upgrade and is now eth1. How do I change it back? | 01:19 |
| aplund | orga: thanks | 01:19 |
| ProfessorX | te_: I ran the command vncserver and it seem to have run it since it didn't give me any errors. I edited the xstartup file, so the last line is startx & | 01:19 |
| aplund | /join #ubuntu-motu | 01:19 |
| aplund | gah!\ | 01:19 |
| ghostofaphoenix | lol, ummm.... I could try.... lol. I am a nub dude. But why not give it a shot. | 01:19 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: cd Azenis_Theme/KDM_Login/ ; bunzip AzenisKDM.tar.gz | 01:19 |
| mdg | Dr_Willis: my brother had a newer kodak printer and got a vista computer, took an hour to get the new driver downloaded and installed. | 01:19 |
| dsdeiz | is there a default gtk theme? :D | 01:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: you do not want to use 'startx &' you want the name of the window manager to run.. such as 'gnome-session' (no & needed either most likely) | 01:19 |
| patapouf | phr0stbyte: hum .. it's depends of your version of Ubuntu .. | 01:20 |
| desnaike | dsnaike | 01:20 |
| desnaike | poore | 01:20 |
| Patrickaaaa | what | 01:20 |
| mashedpgravy | patapouf: so you are saying if i use the live cd to do the clean install it will find and detect the hardware correctly if its supported? | 01:20 |
| mdg | phr0stbyte: why do you need to change it back? | 01:20 |
| Patrickaaaa | can u write that again | 01:20 |
| ninom | can someone tell me sound card that they use and works on ubuntu 9.04 | 01:20 |
| patapouf | phr0stbyte: The older version it's in /etc/iftab | 01:20 |
| phr0stbyte | maya licensing needs to use eth0 | 01:20 |
| dsdeiz | i'd like to restore the default gtk theme :D | 01:20 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: cd Azenis_Theme/KDM_Login/ ; bunzip AzenisKDM.tar.gz | 01:20 |
| phr0stbyte | will not use anything else | 01:20 |
| TheNewGuy | ghost.. sorry... got a phone call. will have to log back later. But thanks. That is a great lead, I can use the mp160 driver. | 01:20 |
| Hylian | say, anyone have a good equivelant program for ms paint in ubuntu? i read about tux paint, but that for kids....?? im looking for uber simple for quick stuff | 01:20 |
| === AJC_Z0- is now known as AJC_Z0 | ||
| ghostofaphoenix | sure l8r dude | 01:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Hylian: try mtpaint if its in the repos | 01:21 |
| ProfessorX | Dr_Willis: I ran the command gnome-session and it gave me a warning: Cannot open display. | 01:21 |
| Dr_Willis | !info mtpaint | 01:21 |
| ubottu | mtpaint (source: mtpaint): painting program to create pixel art and manipulate digital photos. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.21-1 (jaunty), package size 503 kB, installed size 1428 kB | 01:21 |
| dsdeiz | is "simple" the default gtk theme? :S | 01:21 |
| Hylian | ok will do thanx | 01:21 |
| disraeli | Hi. Long story short I am trying to use peragro_svn/cal3d/cal3d $ sed -i 's/all_libraries = @all_libraries@/#all_libraries = @all_libraries@/' \ $ptdir/cal3d/cal3d/src/cal3d/Makefile.am while building a program and it tells me: peragro_svn/cal3d/cal3d no such file or directory but I am running this command from inside that directory! | 01:21 |
| patapouf | mashedpgravy: Nope, what I suggest is to first try with the LiveCD and check if all your hardware is supported : sound, video, 3D acceleration, etc. | 01:21 |
| ogra | phr0stbyte, edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 01:21 |
| patapouf | mashedpgravy: if everything look fine with the liveCD, then you can be sure it's gonna work when you install it | 01:21 |
| phr0stbyte | patapouf: file is blank and it always has been | 01:21 |
| mdg | phr0stbyte: you will probably have to dig in to command line - I'm sure it can be done | 01:21 |
| dsdeiz | anyone? :( | 01:22 |
| Hylian | yep and a program called rgb paint.. | 01:22 |
| mashedpgravy | patapouf: ok thanks man | 01:22 |
| mdg | ogra: cool! How do you get the info - dmesg? | 01:22 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: lets start from the beginning.. on the box to be running the vnc session, you edit the .vnc/xstartup file. the last line (which was twm & by default) you change to run the desktop/window manager you want to run. you then use the 'vncserver' command to actually launch the vnc 'session' and a vncviewer program to see the vnc-session | 01:22 |
| patapouf | phr0stbyte: look what ogra told you : edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 01:22 |
| ZenMasta | I want to add this signing key. "1024R/6E80C6B7" is this correct... sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 6E80C6B7 | 01:23 |
| Hylian | thanx dudes! adios! | 01:23 |
| ogra | mdg, which info ? | 01:23 |
| mdg | ogra: to set the rules so eth1 becomes eth0 | 01:23 |
| ogra | there should already be a rule ... | 01:23 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: xstartup is only read once when you run vncserver. if you are not carefull you will run several vncsessions. use 'vncserver -kill :1' (or whattever # you need) to force extra vnc sessions to close | 01:23 |
| ogra | very likely pointing to eth1 | 01:24 |
| TheNewGuy | Again thanks everyone. This si really cool to have this kind of help. ! YOU have helped the NEWGUY be a lettle less new. (does that me me a "nooblet"? ) | 01:24 |
| lalu_ | join #php | 01:24 |
| ogra | he just needs to change that to eth0 | 01:24 |
| te_ | Dr_Willis: I think he said he had x11vnc installed. If so, he just needs to run x11vnc -many | 01:24 |
| ProfessorX | Dr_Willis: Oh, I kind of get you now. | 01:24 |
| ghostofaphoenix | no a newbie | 01:24 |
| phr0stbyte | I am not sure what to change.... | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | te_: he asked me what to use instead of x11vnc - i told him vnc4server earlier.. :) if hes using x11vnc - hes on his own. :P | 01:24 |
| te_ | Dr_Willis: And then vncviewer 192.168.x.x to connect to it. | 01:25 |
| mdg | ogra: I was trying to get my samsung yp-u3 to be seen with mtp-tools and console file manager - would I need to change something in udev rules? | 01:25 |
| dsdeiz | default gtk theme anyone? :( | 01:25 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: you may want touse some uber light window manager such as icewm, instead of the heavy gnome-session/full gnome desktop | 01:25 |
| Patrickaaaa | I notirced that the file type is listesd as them file | 01:25 |
| Patrickaaaa | is there any way i can change it to all and apply it | 01:25 |
| Patrickaaaa | because i cant unzip it | 01:25 |
| ogra | phr0stbyte, at the end of each line you find the name of the device | 01:25 |
| te_ | Dr_Willis: Well, if he already has x11vnc installed, he might as well learn to use it. | 01:25 |
| linuxguy2009 | I have an odd question. In the gnome menu bar applet you have default pictures, videos, etc, bookmarks. I added a few more and it seems to have a limit and then it creates a "Bookmarks->" entry that kicks them all out on a side pane.Can i kill the side pane and have it display all of them like they were before all together on the main drop list? | 01:25 |
| mdg | ogra: I was doing this in a console distro based on 8.04 | 01:26 |
| ogra | phr0stbyte, if you have eth0 and eth1 there, just flip the names | 01:26 |
| te_ | Dr_Willis: x11vnc works just fine. | 01:26 |
| ogra | phr0stbyte, if you only see eth1, change the 1 to 0 | 01:26 |
| ogra | phr0stbyte, on next rebot your interface should have the proper name again | 01:26 |
| te_ | Dr_Willis: if you just run the x11vnc it will only work for first session and then exit. | 01:27 |
| Dr_Willis | te_: depends on your needs. - what if im on a headless server. :) | 01:27 |
| ghostofaphoenix | mdg, I appreciate the help, I am going to reboot, now and probably log back in.\ | 01:27 |
| Patrickaaaa | can any 1 help me | 01:27 |
| Patrickaaaa | im trying to install a them | 01:27 |
| Patrickaaaa | theme | 01:27 |
| ghostofaphoenix | sure Patrickaaa | 01:27 |
| mdg | ghostofaphoenix: cool! good luck and see you in a flash! :) | 01:27 |
| ghostofaphoenix | you downloaded it alreadt? | 01:27 |
| ghostofaphoenix | already? | 01:27 |
| te_ | Dr_Willis: Shouldn't matter, Shold it? | 01:27 |
| te_ | should* | 01:28 |
| ProfessorX | te_ & Dr_Willis: I edited my xstartup file so the last line is gnome-session. I type in command vncserver. No errors when I did. Still can't connect to it. | 01:28 |
| phr0stbyte | ogra: I have to reboot? "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" didnt change it after the edit.... | 01:28 |
| Dr_Willis | te_: yes.. x11vnc shaares the currently running/physical desktop (from what the x11vnc docs say) this is simile rto how vnc works in windows. | 01:28 |
| ghostofaphoenix | Patrickaaaa, what disto 8.04, 9.04 etc | 01:28 |
| Dr_Willis | te_: other vnc servers let you do other 'tricks' | 01:28 |
| ProfessorX | gnome-session & | 01:28 |
| Patrickaaaa | backtrack 4 | 01:28 |
| ogra | phr0stbyte, no, you would need to restart udev, it assigns the device names ... rebooting is the safest way to get that done | 01:29 |
| te_ | Dr_Willis: Oh yea, ok. Thanks for the info. Press on... | 01:29 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: check the logs, and what display did it say was it running on? HOSTNAME:# (correct?) | 01:29 |
| mdg | ghostofaphoenix: remeber sudo modprobe -v r8180 | 01:29 |
| mdg | remeber/remember | 01:29 |
| ghostofaphoenix | got it, lol. | 01:29 |
| Dr_Willis | te_: hes been a bit vague on what hes trying to acomplish actually.. so im just answering his specific questions. :) | 01:29 |
| phr0stbyte | ogra: ok restarting now... | 01:29 |
| Patrickaaaa | yea so can u help me | 01:29 |
| ghostofaphoenix | searching, I have never heard of BT4 so trying to find a tut 4 you. | 01:30 |
| fission6 | i am installing unbunto on a machine with windows, i went to manual manage disks, i cant seem to set up space for the ubuntu install while maintaing the windows install, what should i do... | 01:30 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: Did you uncompress it? | 01:31 |
| bazhang | Patrickaaaa, #remote-exploit supports BT4 | 01:31 |
| Patrickaaaa | you cant unpack this thing otherwise it fwould just be abunch o | 01:31 |
| Patrickaaaa | small pictures | 01:31 |
| Dr_Willis | 2 days now that someone has mentioned BT4.. and no one seems to actually support it... | 01:31 |
| Patrickaaaa | i need to install it as a package | 01:31 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: Where did you get it from? | 01:32 |
| mdg | what is BT4 supposed to be? | 01:32 |
| fission6 | i can not seem to "release" or "shrink" hard drive space under /dev/sda2 which i think its my windows? | 01:32 |
| ProfessorX | te_ , Dr_Willis: Ok, this is what I'm trying to do. I just order a VPS game host. It came with Ubuntu 9.04. I install GNOME and VNC on it. I'm just trying to load up the GNOME desktop when I connect to it with my VNC viewer. Currently, when I use x11vnc, it only shows a terminal window and a black screen like in this screenshot http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/5914/ubuntuu.png | 01:32 |
| bazhang | Patrickaaaa, you are using Ubuntu or BackTrack4 | 01:32 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: It is not a .deb file so...? | 01:32 |
| Patrickaaaa | from the theme manager | 01:32 |
| Patrickaaaa | ubuntu | 01:32 |
| Patrickaaaa | with back track features | 01:32 |
| Patrickaaaa | whats a deb file | 01:32 |
| Patrickaaaa | its a tar.gz | 01:32 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: you are connecting over the LAN or over the internet? if x11vnc is just showing a terminal. and no window manager. in theory you could just run 'gnome-session' from the terminal to get a full gnome desktop going | 01:33 |
| ghostofaphoenix | Patrickaaaa, here is there forums have you checked there yet, sorry, got to go. be back soon ya'll. | 01:33 |
| mdg | ghostofaphoenix: /me 0/ | 01:33 |
| ghostofaphoenix | well, if you have system>appearance find the tab that says theme and should be an install. | 01:33 |
| ProfessorX | I'm trying to connect over the internet. So I enter the IP address of the VPS server. | 01:33 |
| ghostofaphoenix | lol http://forums.remote-exploit.org/bt4beta-howtos/ <---- BT$ forum | 01:33 |

| ProfessorX | Dr_Willis: Thank you. That is what I wanted to do lol | 01:36 |
| mdg | ghostofaphoenix: ??? what the heck what? | 01:36 |
| Dr_Willis | kbp: you can use the 'xset -dpms' command (check its man pages) to disable DPMS features like that | 01:36 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: Why do you not use the package manage to install this package? | 01:37 |
| Patrickaaaa | ok let me see | 01:37 |
| ZenMasta | what's the paste url? | 01:37 |
| Patrickaaaa | what is a package manager | 01:37 |
| Patrickaaaa | i have a them manager | 01:37 |

| ZenMasta | scunizi thanks | 01:37 |
| kbp | thank you Dr_Willis | 01:38 |
| scunizi | ZenMasta: you can also use pastebinit from terminal to paste the output of a command directly.. it'll return an address to paste here. | 01:38 |
| Dr_Willis | I think the pastebinit command should be included by default :) | 01:39 |
| ariqs | my tor stopped working for some reason. whenever I enable it, nothing works | 01:39 |
| MidsummerDawn | Does Ubuntu have its own security system? Or do you have to have an anti-virus program? | 01:39 |
| ZenMasta | I'm trying to install banshee but get some conflicting package problems. Not sure what to do about it ttp://paste.ubuntu.com | 01:39 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: What is this package supposed to do for you? | 01:39 |
| Dr_Willis | MidsummerDawn: viruses are normally not an issue with linux. | 01:39 |
| * SeaPhor agrees with Dr_Willis on pastebinit | 01:39 | |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: Exactly what is it? | 01:39 |
| ZenMasta | oops, I mean http://paste.ubuntu.com/208664 | 01:39 |
| linduxed | MidsummerDawn: you dont need antivirus, and linux has an inbuilt firewall | 01:39 |
| Dr_Willis | MidsummerDawn: you are thinking in Windows terms.. :) | 01:39 |
| Patrickaaaa | not i just use it as a theme nstead of the default | 01:40 |
| MidsummerDawn | Dr._Willis: So..I don't need anything like that on Ubuntu? | 01:40 |
| linduxed | MidsummerDawn: iptables = firewall | 01:40 |
| Patrickaaaa | and gives it differnet icon | 01:40 |
| rturcotte | can I ask a question for someone good with grep? | 01:40 |
| Dr_Willis | MidsummerDawn: correct. | 01:40 |
| linduxed | MidsummerDawn: also spyware doesnt work on linux | 01:40 |
| intx | doink1212: it works great for it's own display, but that vga port sucks | 01:40 |
| te_ | Patrickaaaa: Do you know what apt is? Or synaptic? | 01:40 |
| MidsummerDawn | Ok good..I was going to download something from Limewire..wanted to make sure. | 01:40 |
| linduxed | MidsummerDawn: so no spyware, no viruses and no firewall needed | 01:40 |
| mdg | hey Devon_C how's it going? | 01:40 |

| bazhang | ZenMasta, where are you installing banshee from? the repos? could you paste.ubuntu.com with your sources.list please | 01:41 |
| rturcotte | I know I have to escape periods | 01:41 |
| te_ | rturcotte: Probably / | 01:41 |
| Dr_Willis | MidsummerDawn: linux dosent run windows programs by default.. so .. Unless you are going to run windows warez.. then you may want to be a bit more carefull.. | 01:41 |
| MidsummerDawn | And I wanted to make sure my Mini 910v wouldn't be invaded. | 01:41 |

| === wolter is now known as spacepidgeon | ||
| ZenMasta | bazhang because the first time I tried searching for banshee in add/remove or package manager it didn't come up... I've been having problems with updating the sources but that's another issue | 01:42 |
| te_ | rturcotte: Probably \-\> | 01:43 |
| bazhang | ZenMasta, seems that PPA is not fitting in with your current install, what version are you running | 01:43 |
| te_ | rturcotte: Sorry... | 01:43 |
| ZenMasta | bazhang i'll remove that PPA and try again. | 01:43 |

| bazhang | ZenMasta, a quick check of your sources.list if you paste.ubuntu.com with them | 01:44 |
| MidsummerDawn | Dr_WIllis: I was going to download the Limewire Linux version for a song I need for school.. | 01:44 |

| MidsummerDawn | jamiewan: There's a file thing on the Limewire site that downloads the Linux version I guess. I was about to hit download earlier but decided against it. | 01:46 |
| soreau | sage_: With the package manager, synaptic | 01:46 |
| scunizi | benzzz: so are you having a problem installing ubuntu in the vm or are you having issues with using windows virtual pc? | 01:46 |
| ZenMasta | bazhang yeah I well I just use it as a file server on my home network... can I update to 8.04 without reinstalling completely? | 01:47 |

| rsmiley208 | I'm used to using a mac. I want my close/minimize/etc. buttons on the left. What should I do? | 01:52 |
| scunizi | benzzz: we don't really support anything outside of ubuntu itself here.. that being said .. if you've downloaded the .iso for ubuntu you have to tell the windows program somehow to use that to boot to. You might consider 2 things. Get help fo that program in ##windows or use Virtualbox. Virtualbox's currentl version from their site is 3.0 and will support the special screen effects in ubuntu. Their channel is #vbox. | 01:53 |

| rsmiley208 | jrib: thanks | 01:54 |
| Patrickaaaa | is there a copy and paste command? | 01:54 |
| rch2 | rsmiley: IMHO better to get an integrated theme than just to move buttons | 01:54 |
| Patrickaaaa | like to copy all of pictures in a particular folder | 01:54 |
| rch2 | rsmiley: check art.gnome.org | 01:54 |
| Patrickaaaa | and paste it into another location? | 01:54 |
| jrib | rsmiley208: that's for metaciy at least. If you are using compiz you probably need to do something else (try the compiz channel) | 01:54 |
| scunizi | Patrickaaaa: you want to "move" them or copy them? | 01:54 |

| ARMENIAN | rch2: hmh, so is there anyway I can check? | 02:03 |
| scunizi | craigbass1976: there are occational issues I've found.. if there is a file in there with a default name and you try to print again, the second printing will go into the ether | 02:03 |

| craigbass1976 | te_, I'm outta ink, and it's not my itinery anyway; I'm emailing it back to my neighbor | 02:06 |
| rch2 | armenian: see if there are binary drivers available | 02:06 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: I've actually looked there for teh restricted drivers, but nothing ever came up | 02:07 |
| ARMENIAN | here ill look again | 02:07 |
| scunizi | kromar: mine does to on intrepid.. I've been looking for a solution for a couple of months.. on mine it's the front and side vol. sliders that get muted | 02:07 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: You can't just forward the email? | 02:07 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: nope, nothing there | 02:07 |
| rch2 | rch2: please do... I am afraid your graphics performance is what it is. you are running open-source radeon driver and it basically performs like it does | 02:07 |
| kromar | scunizi: so you havent found a solution? | 02:08 |
| scunizi | kromar: nope | 02:08 |
| rch2 | armenian: and it doesn't look like your system supports any other drivers | 02:08 |
| duane1 | it has been working fine forever... i re-installed last night and it was still working fine... i didn't add any blockers, it just stopped | 02:08 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: hmm, so there's no other driver I can use? | 02:08 |
| kromar | scunizi: man that sucks im also searching a solution for some month now.. and thats not the only problem i have | 02:08 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: like on Windows it runs fine with the driver from ATI | 02:08 |
| craigbass1976 | te_, she couldn't get it to print right; format was all screwy. So I had her forward it to me, I hacked up the html enough to make it usable, then printed to pdf from firefox | 02:08 |
| rch2 | armenian: say again, which card uhave? | 02:08 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: ATI radeon x800gt | 02:09 |
| porter1 | Anyone else having problems where gnome-panel and firefox start screwing up, and firefox menus end up where gnome-panel menus are supposed to be, and vice versa? | 02:09 |
| duane1 | i get a play button icon for all videos on all sites, even banners but most work | 02:09 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: So just send the resulting pdf file to her as an attached file.. | 02:09 |
| scunizi | kromar: what else? | 02:09 |
| rch2 | armenian: I think you are already running the "latest and greatest". and your 3d performance is hardware-accelerated within the driver capabilities | 02:09 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: Have you lost the file? You do not know where it is? | 02:10 |
| rch2 | armenian: there is another driver, called radeonhd. it works not as well for me, but it works better for some | 02:10 |
| porter1 | Firefox didn't do it for a while, but now it's happening again, and it makes Ubuntu totally annoying to even bother using. | 02:10 |
| jamiewan | MidsummerDawn: yes that limewire prog works fine from that webpage | 02:10 |
| kromar | scunizi: its like some settings dont get saved when rebooting like the music player which i always need to open manually.... | 02:10 |
| Adola | Ok, I had a driver I had to compile, for ethernet, I changed Kernel versions from 2.6.28, to 2.6.30...The driver doesn't work anymore. | 02:10 |
| rski | Adola: you need to recompile it | 02:10 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: well see the reason is a game as simple as tremulous runs slow when i WIndows I could play cs:source great | 02:10 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: Do you know the file name? If so, what is the file name? | 02:10 |
| rch2 | armenian: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=radeon_vs_radeonhd&num=1 | 02:10 |
| rch2 | armenian: the drivers are very very different on windows and linux | 02:11 |
| scunizi | kromar: little niggley things.. frustrating .. sorry I don't have the solution for that one either. | 02:11 |
| craigbass1976 | te_, dude, no. I just needed to make a pdf to email to her. I didn't know if cups=pdf wasn't working, or if I just didn't know where the files went. I did not know they went into ~/PDF, as I've never printed with cups-pdf. I am all set now, as far as I know. Waiting to hear how it printed | 02:11 |
| Adola | rskiI did...And I got errors like "expected expression before ';' token And warning 'return' with a value, etc. | 02:11 |
| porter1 | ARMENIAN, if you don't have the non-generic drivers installed, things are going to run slow as hel | 02:11 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: yeah i know :) it's odd cause in like previous version of ubuntu that I've tried liek i beleive 8.10 I would get a popup for restricted drivers but not in 9.04 | 02:12 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: Ok, sorry. | 02:12 |
| rch2 | armenian: acknoledge the problem. they changed stuff in jaunty. ATI restricted driver no longer runs | 02:12 |
| ARMENIAN | porter1: hmm, like compiz runs pretty good, but with games that should run with no problem, they run slowish | 02:12 |
| rch2 | porter1: he is running a non-generic ATI driver with hardware acceleration enabled. see http://pastebin.com/m460e2404 | 02:12 |
| mase_work | ARMENIAN: ATI removed support for a whole bunch of cards | 02:12 |

| craigbass1976 | te_, no problem. Thanks though. Kind of a dumb problem really, I'd just never done it before | 02:12 |
| ARMENIAN | hmm, that sucks | 02:13 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: Well, you could just open it with your pdf viewer and see how they look. If it looks ok, it will print ok because pdf is an image format. | 02:13 |
| porter1 | rch2, oh. Well, ATI is a horrible company to expect any sort of support for communities | 02:13 |
| rch2 | armenian: ATI still hasn't released a binary driver which supports jaunty kernel | 02:13 |

| ARMENIAN | so, in the future is there going to better performing driver for ubuntu or am i just going to need to get a nvidia in future? | 02:13 |
| duane1 | can anyone out there do me a favor and jump on hulu and see if they can play a video... that way i can know if it's there server.... everyone i have called are away from their pc | 02:13 |

| duane1 | thanks | 02:14 |
| mase_work | ARMENIAN: erm... well you need to ask ATI really as they are the only ones that know :) | 02:14 |
| porter1 | ARMENIAN, unfortunately this is what happens when graphics cards aren't standardized more. | 02:14 |
| scunizi | ARMENIAN: ubuntu is waiting for ati to make a driver that is better.. when it's available we'll have it.. in the mean time nvidia | 02:14 |

| scunizi | daedra: nope you don't .. however you can't pm if you don't register. | 02:16 |
| porter1 | ariqs, the price you pay is what you get for support in drivers :) | 02:17 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: I'm kind of new to all this so I would install it with xf86-video-ati? but then how would I get it to use that driver | 02:17 |
| daedra | scunizi: I know. I'm a registered user, just changed my password | 02:17 |
| lucianogp | hey guys, with FF3.5, a window alert produces a sound (the same drums you hear when you log into the system)... is that an expected behavior? | 02:17 |
| daedra | scunizi: and freenode is not accepting the old on OR the changed one | 02:17 |
| te_ | ariqs: The hardware manufacturers should supply the driver software. | 02:17 |
| te_ | ariqs: Do you not understand that? | 02:17 |
| rch2 | armenian: not quite. you need to install xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd | 02:17 |
| daedra | nothing I can do really... | 02:17 |
| linuxguy2009 | Does anyone have a workaround for the Gnome - Places bookmarks to hold more than 5? | 02:17 |
| scunizi | daedra: you could ask on #freenode.. they might be able to do something | 02:17 |
| Secutor | Using a dual-boot Windows and Ubuntu, made the mistake of booting Windows and no longer get grub to choose Ubuntu. Can you point me toward help? Thanks. | 02:18 |
| ariqs | te_, perhaps ATI doesn't care about linux? | 02:18 |
| te_ | ariqs: Exactly! | 02:18 |
| scunizi | linuxguy2009: you could add a "drawer" to a deskbar and put them there. | 02:18 |
| rch2 | armenian: then you need to read up docs for changing your xorg.conf ... 'cause it may not work. this is a new driver | 02:18 |
| rch2 | armenian: also, run glxgear and see what your rate is. this a standard benchmark for speed | 02:18 |
| mdg | Thanks for all the great help tonight! :) Ubuntu rocks! | 02:18 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: yeah, this might actually even fix the issue I have where I start the computer and it starts in low res randomly sometimes | 02:19 |
| TwoToneSpirit | lucianogp: I noticed that too. | 02:19 |
| linuxguy2009 | scunizi: Yeah thats true. But I wonder if there a way with gconf editor to do it. | 02:19 |
| scunizi | linuxguy2009: that I wouldn't know. | 02:19 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: glxgear? is it in the repos? | 02:19 |
| MidsummerDawn | jamiewan: Does it work? | 02:19 |
| lucianogp | TwoToneSpirit: good to know I'm not the only one. Now it'd be great to know if that is how it should work :S | 02:19 |
| rch2 | armenian: glxgears. it's a command in linux. you probably have it already | 02:19 |
| lucianogp | (and how to deactivate it, because it really bothers me :P) | 02:20 |
| blah123123 | when i reboot my box, my raid5 array never comes back up, i always have to messe around with mdadm to get it online. Is there a special song and dance I have to do besides adding the config to the mdadm.conf? | 02:20 |
| === cabrey_ is now known as cabrey | ||
| ARMENIAN | rch2: ohh ok gears :P i did it with gear | 02:20 |
| TwoToneSpirit | lucianogp: I don't know if it has been doing it since I upgraded to 3.5final - which version are you using? | 02:20 |
| rch2 | armenian: sorry, typo. what kind of rate are you getting? | 02:20 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: hmm 16720 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3343.920 FPS | 02:20 |
| craigbass1976 | te_, hehe, now it won't print becuase the printer itself is screwed up. She printed something a few minutes ago and everything went berzerk. I ssh-ed in and killed whatever was spitting out so much paper, but I should have restarted cups probably... | 02:20 |
| craigbass1976 | sheesh | 02:20 |
| rch2 | armenian: scratch WHATEVER we told you previously :) your problem isn't driver | 02:21 |
| lucianogp | TwoToneSpirit: the official one from the repos, b4 | 02:21 |
| porter1 | lol | 02:21 |
| rch2 | armenian: are you running compiz? | 02:21 |
| fission6 | how do i see all available wireless networks available to me in ubuntu | 02:21 |
| porter1 | Evidently the drivers are ok :P | 02:21 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: yes, but i kill it before gameplay most times | 02:21 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, what's your problem/ | 02:21 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: Tell her to unplug the printer for acouple min. turn off the computer, plug printer back in, restart computer. | 02:21 |
| porter1 | fission, click on the wireless tray icon in the top right | 02:22 |
| rch2 | armenian: if you kill it, are you sure it dies? gnome might just restart it | 02:22 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: She has MS Windows? | 02:22 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, you can enable the UXA accelmethod if you want... | 02:22 |
| craigbass1976 | te_ sounds like a windows solution. She's on ubuntu too | 02:22 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: games that should run fast run slow sometimes | 02:22 |
| fission6 | porter1: with the signal bars | 02:22 |
| porter1 | fission6, yep | 02:22 |
| fission6 | there are all empty "blank" | 02:22 |
| rch2 | armenian: what kind of game? can you be specific? | 02:22 |
| craigbass1976 | te_, I converted her a couple years ago | 02:22 |
| fission6 | i just installed ubuntu, trying to set up wireless | 02:22 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: actually I change it using the fusion-icon :) | 02:22 |
| ewsubach | if you have 2 gpus, is it possible to switch between the two on the fly? | 02:22 |
| craigbass1976 | fission6, good luck. lspci to figure out what kind of card you have | 02:22 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: how do I turn that on? | 02:23 |
| rch2 | armenian: would be nice to check if metacity is actually running then | 02:23 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: Does she have correct printer selected? | 02:23 |
| porter1 | fission, then either your wireless driver is bad, or there are no visible wireless networks nearby | 02:23 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: tremuluos for instance | 02:23 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: Does she have correct driver selected for printer? | 02:23 |
| fission6 | porter1: even if i just set up the install? you dont think there is a config or something i need to do | 02:23 |
| craigbass1976 | te_, she does. It' probably something stupid. My wife is over there now; when she gets home I'll run over and have a look. It printed fine before now, just a glitch I think. Is there a way to print this pdf from the command line? | 02:24 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, it may break your X, so back up your xorg.conf file: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/UxaTesting | 02:24 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: She can clear print jobs and try again. But like I said, unplug the printer for a minute or so. | 02:24 |
| cabrey | rch2, if compiz is running, metacity isn't | 02:24 |
| porter1 | fission6, depending on the card you have there might be lots of configuring your going to have to do :) | 02:24 |
| rch2 | cabrey: he says he kills compiz | 02:24 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: Yes. lpr file.pdf | 02:24 |
| dhendrix | how does one go about turning a unified diff into a debian-ized kernel patch? | 02:24 |
| rch2 | armenian: UXA is for 2D graphics. your game is 3D using opengl. | 02:24 |
| cabrey | rch2, well UXA fixes the compiz/opengl issue | 02:24 |
| rch2 | cabrey: never heard of that, then perhaps worth trying | 02:25 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: lprm will clear jobs lpq will show jobs. | 02:25 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: ohh ok then i guess i dont need it | 02:25 |
| Ollonk | anyone here familiar with the dell latitude c400? | 02:25 |
| Ollonk | It's pure evil.... | 02:26 |
| fission6 | porter1: atheros communications, AR242X | 02:26 |
| ARMENIAN | actually let me try something one sec | 02:26 |
| cabrey | rch2, before if you had compiz enabled and ran glxgears, then tried to move the glxgears windows, bad things would happen. | 02:26 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: (That is, if the printer in question is set as default printer.) | 02:26 |
| ariqs | te_, I just find it fairly ironic that anyone would call ATI overpriced when it has much better price for performance overall. Sure, it has terrible linux drivers, but no one said anyone was stuck to linux | 02:26 |
| cabrey | rch2, UXA fixes that opengl / compiz issue so that you dont have to kill compiz before using opengl apps | 02:26 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: It is a good idea to set as default printer even if it is the only one. | 02:26 |
| craigbass1976 | te_, lprm not clearing jobs. hmmmm | 02:26 |
| craigbass1976 | te_, it is the default. Has been for a year anyway | 02:26 |
| te_ | ariqs: Problem is that ati has never provided good reliable driver software and that is a part of the problem. | 02:27 |
| porter1 | fission6, go to System, administration, and then harware drivers. THe dirver might be in there | 02:27 |
| rch2 | cabrey: sounds like a good suggestion, I don't have any others | 02:27 |
| porter1 | fission6, you will need to connect to ethernet first though. | 02:27 |
| ariqs | linux isn't a very good gaming OS either anyway | 02:27 |
| te_ | ariqs: Sometimes,... you get what you pay for. | 02:27 |
| fission6 | why woudlnt it install automatically | 02:27 |
| ariqs | or a very good 3d modeling OS | 02:27 |
| rch2 | armenian: I just checked, your card is too old to run radeonhd driver. you are stuck with radeon driver (the only one for your R420 hardware) | 02:27 |
| cabrey | rch2, the ubuntu wiki says it is unstable for intel chips, not sure about other hardware tho =V | 02:27 |
| rch2 | armenian: try to follow cabrey advice,I haven't used it myself so I can't tell | 02:28 |
| ARMENIAN | rch2: ohh :( its okay let me see im gonna play with it see what happens | 02:28 |
| te_ | ariqs: nvidia provides better support, so.... there you go. | 02:28 |
| porter1 | fission6, because it might be proprietary software, which Ubuntu is not allowed to distribute | 02:28 |
| ARMENIAN | yeah I will try it | 02:28 |
| craigbass1976 | te_, wel, between me restarting cups and clearing out garbage jobs, it printed. I guess they were trying to print while I was runn lprm. | 02:28 |
| rch2 | cabrey, armenian: google found a good bug report on this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/96991 | 02:28 |
| porter1 | fission6, only drivers that the manufacturers make open source are included in base ubuntu. | 02:28 |
| te_ | craigbass1976: very good | 02:28 |
| Jimmio | Who just said Ubuntu is bad for gaming and 3D modelling?! I am making a game engine as we speak in Ubuntu, and Blender, Wings3D, k-3D, etc. all work very well. | 02:29 |
| craigbass1976 | te_, yeah, now I can stay home. Woot! | 02:29 |
| porter1 | Jimmio, yes there are some great 3D programs and games, but mainstream gamecompanies rarly publish on Linux. | 02:29 |
| te_ | Jimmio: ariqs was the one | 02:29 |
| ariqs | te_ sure, ATI could make better drivers, but I still get far more power for the dollar with ATI | 02:30 |
| Ollonk | Apparently I have no framebuffers.... and I'm running jaunty | 02:30 |
| Ollonk | >_< | 02:30 |
| porter1 | And games on Linux unfortunately are either poor art quality or have very little direction other than needing to clone a windows game | 02:30 |
| te_ | ariqs: But if the driver software is not there, what do you have? | 02:31 |
| ariqs | Jimmio, Blender is not a good modeling program | 02:31 |
| porter1 | ariqs, you are wrong. | 02:31 |
| porter1 | :) | 02:31 |
| ariqs | te_ a need to goto windows | 02:31 |
| te_ | ariqs: ATI could make better drivers and if they did, it would be a different story. | 02:31 |
| te_ | ariqs: Yes, maybe you need to use MS. | 02:32 |
| ariqs | porter1, I'm not much of a 3d artist, but I have friend that are, and they all claim blender is poor quality. | 02:32 |
| ariqs | friend - friends | 02:32 |
| porter1 | ariqs, if you haven't used it, you don't know ;) | 02:32 |
| ariqs | and I know from first hand that ubuntu makes a poor gaming OS :) I'm ok with that. It has its own strengths | 02:33 |
| Jimmio | ariqs: It is a very good modeling program. Excellent. I use it professionally and it works perfect. | 02:33 |
| porter1 | Most artists don't like it because they don't understand the workflow (because they are coming from windows), but in truth it is probably the most awesome 3d modeling program created. | 02:33 |
| ariqs | porter1, I've used it | 02:33 |
| ariqs | porter1: as well as maya, lightwave and 3dsmax | 02:34 |
| ariqs | they're much better | 02:34 |
| Jimmio | ariqs: It's also a great gaming OS. Many times faster than Windows. Problem is, the stupid corporate execs don't see a point in supporting it. | 02:34 |
| ariqs | but I haven't used it enough to know all the subtleties, and my 3d artist friends have. So I divert to their judgement | 02:34 |
| Jimmio | They're worse actually ariqs. I've used them all, and Blender is the one I like the most. Can you make a game inside any of them? | 02:34 |
| porter1 | ariqs, yeah everyone has their own opinions about the best workflow. | 02:34 |
| Flare183 | !ot | 02:34 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 02:34 |
| Jimmio | ariqs: Blender, yes. | 02:34 |
| ariqs | with windows 7 upgrade costing $50, however, I'm fairly apathetic ;) | 02:35 |
| Jimmio | ariqs: Only $50?! Where'd you see that? It's $400 for Ultimate... again.. | 02:35 |

| ubottu | Patrickaaaa: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 03:00 |
| Youcef | Cosmo1: In xorg.conf you have option "XkbLayout".. add "dvorak" there to see if that solves it. | 03:00 |
| Flare183 | !ext4 | Mike_lifeguard (this might help) | 03:00 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ext4 | 03:00 |
| Flare183 | !ext3 | 03:01 |
| ubottu | ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 03:01 |

| Flare183 | Ollonk: I wish I could, but I'm a software person. not hardware >< Sorry | 03:02 |
| Flare183 | ProfessorX: Install the package zlib-dev | 03:02 |
| Ollonk | thanks anyway | 03:02 |
| bastid_raZor | Mike_lifeguard; although when you convert you lose some of the benefits. a reinstall on a freshly partitioned ext4 is the preferred route. | 03:02 |
| Flare183 | ProfessorX: That should fix that | 03:02 |
| svudh | hi | 03:02 |
| Mike_lifeguard | ProfessorX: You need to install zlib; if it is installed already then specify it's location with --with-zlib=/path/to/zlib | 03:02 |

| KevanBarley | Today I upgraded Ubuntu, as usual, but the process upgraded over a hundred packages (usually it's about ten). Now Ubuntu doesn't seem to acknowledge my monitor's resolution capabilities. It came up as 720x400 (unusable) and the highest I could go was 1024x768. I don't guess that you can troubleshoot it in a chat room, but I'm wondering if this is a known issue? | 03:45 |

| ewler | anybody knows how to install my ati radeon 9200 driver in ubuntu? | 03:50 |
| fryguy | julios: to install a video card, find the screw to remove the side panel from your computer, identify the correct slot (agp, pci, or pci-express) and place the card in, making sure to apply firm pressure, then screw into place. If you already have a video card, unscrew and replace with the new card using the same procedure | 03:50 |

| Naddix | yes | 04:06 |
| Naddix | windows to linux can transfer | 04:06 |
| Naddix | linux to windows we cant | 04:06 |
| scunizi | Naddix: then you also have to contend with the windows software firewall | 04:06 |
| ProfessorX | fryguy: I follow the information on the first link. I ran the commands they said and still getting the exact same error... | 04:06 |
| Jimmio | Naddix: I had this issue before. I opened the ports on my router and nothing happened. I had to get Ubuntu to open the ports before it worked (Remote Desktop) | 04:06 |
| Naddix | yes we turned off windows firewall to assure it | 04:06 |
| Naddix | ok | 04:07 |
| fryguy | ProfessorX: so then consult mysql's actual documentation for how to create a user, since you messed up the installation procedure | 04:07 |
| Naddix | ubuntu dosnt block ports by default do they | 04:07 |
| CarlFK1 | Naddix: do both machines have public IP's? | 04:07 |
| scunizi | Naddix: does it also have norton or mcafee? or something else? | 04:07 |
| Jimmio | Naddix: I never installed Linux Firewall on my server, yet it's there. So it might. | 04:07 |
| CarlFK1 | Naddix: Ubuntu does not block ports | 04:07 |
| Naddix | iptables is installed but never configured to block ports | 04:08 |

| Jimmio | geirha: "gnome-control-center: /usr/bin/gnome-mouse-properties" | 04:34 |
| geirha | Jimmio: Yeah, that'd be the package I'd file it on | 04:35 |
| peterkls | how is it for compatibility | 04:35 |
| scunizi | Draconicus: use blkid to verify the uuid of the drive.. | 04:35 |
| scunizi | Draconicus: sudo blkid | 04:35 |
| Jimmio | geirha: gnome-control-center or gnome-mouse-properties? | 04:35 |
| peterkls | excuse me, how is it for hardware compatibility | 04:36 |
| Dulak | peterkls: i haven't had any issues with anything so far, the video is too crappy for compiz but that's minor to me, everything else seems to work just great | 04:36 |
| peterkls | oh alright then | 04:36 |
| geirha | Jimmio: gnome-mouse-properties is the binary, dpkg -S searches for the package which installs a particular file. In this case the package is gnome-control-center | 04:36 |
| Dulak | peterkls: actually scratch that, the card reader on it doesn't work, but I don't need that I have a usb card reader that works just fine, everything else though has worked great for me | 04:37 |
| Apollo2366 | Hey, how do I install additional screensavers? I just downloaded electricsheep and I'm having major issues... | 04:37 |
| Draconicus | scunizi: Already said I used a static address. That's not working, so it's definitely deeper than the UUID. | 04:37 |
| peterkls | dulak, ok then, ill give it a try, i really cannot stand xp so its either linux or win7 at this point lol | 04:37 |
| dsdeiz | i've remove "silent" from menu.lst to see what causing the slow boot up. and it listed "Starting MTA".. what could that mean? sorry kinda new :( | 04:37 |
| Dulak | peterkls: I haven't tried windows 7 on it yet, been real happy with ubuntu so far | 04:37 |
| peterkls | dulak, id imagine i would be too. | 04:38 |
| === mmm is now known as SuPeRhAm | ||
| dsdeiz | anyone? | 04:38 |
| peterkls | dulak, how is it for battery life? | 04:38 |
| Dulak | peterkls: I get about 5 hours out of it | 04:38 |
| Dr_Willis | dsdeiz: Mail Transfer Agent. But i doubt if thats causeing any slow down. You could disable that service i guess. | 04:38 |
| Dulak | peterkls: it's a 6 cell battery, not the 3 cell one on the slightly cheaper model | 04:39 |
| dsdeiz | Dr_Willis: it stays to "Starting MTA" for how many minutes then continues | 04:39 |
| dsdeiz | Dr_Willis: how may i disable it? | 04:39 |
| alazyworkaholic | does anyone here have any idea what to do when fsck starts asking questions like "Clear inode?" | 04:39 |
| panfist | i am having a problem with sound...OSS works but ALSA does not...i hear quiet static only when ALSA is enabled. Even though I have OSS set as my default device, I think firefox is using ALSA because any sound out of firefox sounds like the quiet static i get when testing ALSA playback | 04:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !service | 04:40 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about service | 04:40 |
| scunizi | Draconicus: here's what my line looks like just for comparison.. # /dev/sda7 | 04:40 |
| scunizi | UUID=d4afa7e7-9e6f-4bf4-ae1b-9d8c8f28c468 /home ext3 relatime 0 2 | 04:40 |
| bishop | hey | 04:40 |
| Draconicus | panfist: Consistent after restarting? Try reinstalling ALSA. | 04:40 |
| Cosmo1 | I am having a problem my keyboard layout keeps changing from dvorak back to qwerty even though I have removed the qwerty layout and it seems at random times it goes back to qwerty and I have to run setxkbmap dvorak in a launcher. How do I fix this so that it stays dvorak? I am noticing a slight pause in my system when it happens. | 04:40 |
| Draconicus | scunizi: Yeah. Like that 'cept I have a real /dev path instead of a UUID. | 04:40 |
| Dr_Willis | dsdeiz: check the upstart docs, on how to enable/disable services.. i forget the 'proper' way to do it now a days. | 04:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !upstart | dsdeiz | 04:40 |
| ubottu | dsdeiz: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 04:40 |
| panfist | draconicus yes, i just tried rebooting. how do i do that? sudo apt-get reinstall? | 04:41 |
| scunizi | Draconicus: right.. but is the remaining portion similar? | 04:41 |
| alazyworkaholic | cosmo1: you're not in 8.04 are you? | 04:41 |
| dsdeiz | ok thanks | 04:41 |
| hh | I experienced problems after installing openoffice 3.1 | 04:41 |
| Draconicus | panfist: Better to use Synaptic. Make sure the package description calls it the actual daemon. | 04:41 |
| tenniselbow | my gnome desktop is very slow... all apps take a while to load and typing is a bit delayed.... Ive just installed jaunty on my compaq presario laptop.... could it be my nvidia graphics? | 04:41 |
| scunizi | tenniselbow: yes | 04:41 |
| === nnnn is now known as SuPeRhAm | ||
| Draconicus | panfist: By the way, you should run alsamixer and make sure nothing's muted, or that your recording channels ARE. | 04:42 |
| hh | everytime starting, a window appear ask me to recover files | 04:42 |
| panfist | will try that, thanks | 04:42 |
| Draconicus | hh: Then reinstall. It's probably broken. | 04:42 |
| Draconicus | scunizi: If you mean the options and whatnot, yeah. | 04:42 |
| hh | yes, I reinstall it many times follow the guide on Internet | 04:42 |
| tenniselbow | scunizi: any pointers where i should look to find how to fix it? Im not really sure what the problem is, i guessed it might be something to do with the graphics card. Do i need another driver? | 04:43 |
| Draconicus | scunizi: It's like this: /dev/sda5 /home ext3 relatime 0 2 | 04:43 |
| Draconicus | scunizi: There's nothing wrong with my fstab. Can we move on? | 04:43 |
| Kamokow | Ok, I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on my laptop computer (HP Pavilion dv2000). But whenever anything internet related loads, my little wireless light starts blinking Blue (working) Red (non-working), its not causing any problems, but it is a tad annoying. Is there any way I can fix this? | 04:43 |
| scunizi | Draconicus: looks good from here.. I'm stuck.. | 04:43 |
| Draconicus | Next. :3 | 04:43 |
| scunizi | tenniselbow: what kind of card nvidia ..what? | 04:44 |
| Draconicus | scunizi: Any specialists here? I know what I'm doing. I know fstab and mount and all that jazz. Gentoo/Debian veteran. :P | 04:44 |
| wrinkliez | so, does anyone play rrootage? because i cant figure out which button starts the game lol XD | 04:45 |
| tenniselbow | scunizi: GeForce 8200M G with shared graphics memory | 04:45 |
| scunizi | Draconicus: it's an unusual issue at best. There are many here with lots of experience. I hope someone pipes i for you. | 04:45 |
| === default is now known as xcad | ||
| panfist | draconicus couldn't i just try something like setting firefox to not use alsa? i'm pretty sure all my problems are alsa related...anything that i know for sure is using OSS works just fine | 04:45 |
| scunizi | tenniselbow: did you look in system/admin/hardware drivers? is there anything there to activate? | 04:46 |
| Draconicus | panfist: Most all audio in Firefox goes through flash. have you tried actual audio files? | 04:46 |
| tenniselbow | scunizi: i know zilch about graphics cards.... ill have a look there now. In the past its always worked for me "out of the box" | 04:46 |
| Draconicus | scunizi: Suggested poking? | 04:46 |
| panfist | draconicus audio files? what do you mean? i can play audio files in other applications | 04:47 |
| dsdeiz | how do you fix a broken install again? | 04:48 |
| Draconicus | panfist: Then it's not ALSA. It's your flash. Are you using Adobe Flash or swfdec? | 04:48 |
| Draconicus | dsdeiz: Reinstall? Can you boot up to a command line? | 04:48 |
| Kamokow | dsdeiz: have you done anything? Like would you reject if I said just to reinstall? | 04:48 |
| dsdeiz | broken package, i mean | 04:48 |
| Draconicus | OH | 04:48 |
| duckwars__ | how do I securely VNC? | 04:48 |
| Draconicus | dsdeiz: In Synaptic: Edit > Fix Broken Packages | 04:48 |
| Draconicus | Then apply. | 04:49 |
| vigo | !vnc | 04:49 |
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 04:49 |
| dsdeiz | Draconicus: what about in the terminal? | 04:49 |
| tenniselbow | scunizi: You are right on the money. I went to system/admin/hardware drivers. No drivers were activated.... ive activated one now. Its installing, hopefully it fixes the problem. Thank you for your help. | 04:49 |
| panfist | i will try another flash player...but it's definitely alsa. alsa = static. oss = sound. firefox = static ergo I tnk it's using alsa but i cant figure out how to change that or even check it | 04:49 |
| duckwars__ | thank you so much~ | 04:49 |
| scunizi | tenniselbow: after installation you'll need to restart. | 04:49 |
| duckwars__ | =) | 04:49 |
| Draconicus | dsdeiz: Why do you need to do it in the terminal? | 04:49 |
| Draconicus | There's no real graceful way to do it in there... | 04:49 |
| Kamokow | some people just prefer the terminal | 04:49 |
| Draconicus | True enough. | 04:49 |
| tenniselbow | scunizi: ok. Thank you | 04:50 |
| vigo | Is a nice ubottu | 04:50 |
| scunizi | Draconicus: sorry I was googling.. is this /home left from one of your previous linux installs? | 04:50 |
| dsdeiz | i don't have x | 04:50 |
| Draconicus | dsdeiz: Ah. That's a silly way to run Ubuntu in particular, but alright. :P | 04:50 |
| Draconicus | I think aptitude has the same feature. | 04:50 |
| dsdeiz | do i just do "man aptitue" ? | 04:51 |
| TwoToneSpirit | Which, if any, IRC channel focuses on apt-get and the repos? (ie where do the "librarians" hang out?) | 04:51 |
| Kamokow | Hmm... how do I setup a network bridge on Ubuntu? I have never made an attempt. | 04:51 |
| halberd | I have a USB device (a TomTom One) that shows up in File Browser as a USB Drive | 04:51 |
| halberd | where is that mounted on the /dev filesystem? how can I find out? | 04:52 |
| halberd | er i mean not mounted | 04:52 |
| dsdeiz | Draconicus: got it now, thank you ;) | 04:52 |
| scunizi | Draconicus: I'm not sure if this would make a difference but do you have more than one swap partition on your system? | 04:52 |
| halberd | where does the device exist on /dev? | 04:52 |
| usser | Kamokow, theres a bunch of ways, bridge-utils would probably be the easiest | 04:52 |
| dsdeiz | what's the difference between aptitude and apt-get anyway? | 04:52 |
| Hilikus | what audio/video player do you guys recommend. i tried rythmbox but it doesnt play videos | 04:52 |
| Dr_Willis | halberd: you mount it where you want the 'device' name may be found with proberly the 'dmesg' command of by 'sudo fdisk -l' perhaps | 04:52 |
| Kamokow | Okay thanks ^^, | 04:52 |

| halberd | Dr_Willis, according to dmesg it attached as "usb 7-1" | 04:55 |
| Dr_Willis | halberd: read the messages some more.. should be some sd## type info metnioned.. or just try 'sudo fdisk -l' | 04:55 |
| halberd | so what is it, /dev/usb7.1_ep81? | 04:55 |
| halberd | fdisk reports nothing of interest | 04:55 |
| Hilikus | what audio/video player do you guys recommend. i tried rythmbox but it doesnt play videos | 04:55 |
| dsdeiz | it is usuall /dev/sdb1 or something | 04:55 |
| halberd | my computer can't mount this, it can't recognize the filesystem | 04:55 |
| Dr_Willis | halberd: if it works as a usb hard drive - it will have a normal /dev/sd## type name | 04:55 |
| Dr_Willis | halberd: so what are you trying to do with it then? | 04:56 |
| halberd | I want to try to manually mount it to see what the problem is | 04:56 |
| peterkls | what format does teh usb stick need to be to do the netbook install of ubuntu, fat32? | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | halberd: you mean the PROBLEM is that a windows machine cant mount the device? | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | peterkls: fat32/fat16 normally | 04:56 |
| halberd | no the problem is that my Ubuntu machine can't mount it | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | peterkls: but if you are using the UNR usb image file.. it dosent matter. | 04:57 |
| halberd | at least not automatically | 04:57 |
| Dr_Willis | halberd: find the device name.. try mounting via hand. | 04:57 |
| linuxguy2009 | Just a quicky here. Does anyone here have experience with managing Ubuntu updates manually? I have been using a live cd to use synaptic to generate download scripts to create my own repository CD with great results with using a multisession CD so i can add apps as i go and never have to download them more than once.Its great. My question is doing the same thing with the live session but going and creating a download script of all curren | 04:57 |
| halberd | yes Dr_Willis... that's what I'm in here asking about, how to find the device name so that I can mount it by hand... | 04:57 |
| peterkls | ubuntu-9.04-netbook-remix-i386 is what im using and its a IMG file | 04:57 |
| scunizi | !offline | linuxguy2009 | 04:58 |
| ubottu | linuxguy2009: If 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 !APTonCD | 04:58 |
| Dr_Willis | halberd: plug it in.. look at 'dmesg' output a few times.. it will take it 30+sec to show/get set up.. so run dmesg a few times.. OR... for the 3rd time try 'sudo fdisk -l' | 04:58 |
| linuxguy2009 | oy nevermind | 04:58 |
| halberd | oh I guess it is /dev/sdc1 | 04:58 |
| halberd | that was throwing me off because I often have an external hard drive called that so I didn't recognize it... | 04:58 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 04:58 |
| linuxguy2009 | Ive been using virtualbox it works great. You didnt let me finish. | 04:59 |
| scunizi | linuxguy2009: by all means .. finish.. | 04:59 |
| Kamokow | Ok, I have used linux before, just not... very much. However I am starting to use it as an everyday OS. Now... I want to ask how I would make a directory hidden? Would I have to use like CHMOD or something? I still want it to be accessible, just hidden... | 05:00 |
| === iamcalledrob|awa is now known as iamcalledrob | ||
| halberd | excellent it mounted successfully :) still no idea why it wouldn't mount from the file browser... ty | 05:00 |
| linuxguy2009 | When i do the same with updates Ive been using multisession CD in Nero Linux 3, but I get tons of wasted space cause of file overwrites.Im thinking theres no workaround, its just a limitation of Nero Linux app? | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Kamokow: short answer.. you dont. | 05:00 |
| scunizi | Kamokow: hidden files / directories begin with a . | 05:00 |
| linuxguy2009 | Ill just burn disk at once for the updates if I have to no biggy, | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Kamokow: or make it start with a . (but thats just a trick, not really hideing it in any special way) | 05:00 |
| mobi-sheep | Kamokow: You could add a (dot) on your folder. | 05:00 |
| * WIGGMPk is SOOOO HAPPPY | 05:01 | |
| Kamokow | ok, i just want it to not appear :P | 05:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Kamokow: use a .whatever for its name | 05:01 |
| mobi-sheep | Kamokow: Why are you hiding something from yourself? :) | 05:01 |
| mase_work | linuxguy2009: out of curiousity why would you use the Nero Linux app when there are much better burning applications available which are provided as part of the distro ? | 05:01 |
| dsdeiz | like .pr0n | 05:01 |
| dsdeiz | lol | 05:01 |
| scunizi | linuxguy2009: just curious.. are you running ubuntu in the vm? and if so does the rest of the computer not have internet access? | 05:01 |
| Dulak | mobi-sheep: c'mon, hiding yer porn is as old as computers | 05:01 |
| linuxguy2009 | Well ever since 8.10 I always had trouble with brasero and also k3b with verifies failing every time. | 05:01 |
| mobi-sheep | Dulak: I don't need to hide them. I'm man enough. :) | 05:02 |
| linuxguy2009 | Has braser improved on that? or maybe it was just the 8.10 release that was really buggy for me. | 05:02 |
| Dulak | mobi-sheep: you aren't married huh? | 05:02 |
| mase_work | linux | 05:02 |
| linuxguy2009 | The main pc has internet | 05:02 |
| WIGGMPk | quick question.. I have 3 DVD drives.. 1 internal (SATA) 1 external (eSATA) and 1 external (USB).. I only see /media/cdrom0 and /media/cdrom1 shouldnt I have a /media/cdrom2 for the third drive? | 05:03 |
| mobi-sheep | Dulak: No. Even if I am, I still won't hide it. Well, I encrypt everything all times so I guess the subconscious told me that I don't need to worry about anything. :< | 05:03 |
| linuxguy2009 | Im making my own repository cd and its great I only have to ever install anything just once and I have all its deps in folders with a homeade install script to install them from CD. | 05:03 |
| Kamokow | oh sorry, im hiding it cause im working on a project and i dont want people messing with the stuff... | 05:03 |
| mase_work | linuxguy2009: can't say i've experienced that, however both brasario and k3b use the underlying cdrecord ( or forked version ) afaik so you may like to file a bug report and see if they can work out why its' failing. Are you sure thechecksums aren't actually different and nero is just ignoring this ? | 05:03 |
| Dulak | mobi-sheep: when you get married you'll understand, women take it real personal | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Kamokow: set the owner to be only the person that should have rights to mess with it? | 05:03 |
| laymansnerd | what do ctrl shift and alt do respectively when dragging and dropping? | 05:03 |
| Dulak | mobi-sheep: it's ok, enjoy that freedom while you got it | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis | laymansnerd: the gnome help docs tell ya.. alt = Move.. i forget the others... | 05:03 |
| Kamokow | oh right lol, w/e hiding is good enough for me | 05:04 |
| Dr_Willis | laymansnerd: try it and see? | 05:04 |
| * mobi-sheep basks in the air of freedom. | 05:04 | |
| laymansnerd | that's all i needed Dr Willis :-D | 05:04 |
| JamesHoldsworth | Hi! | 05:04 |
| * Dulak envies mobi-sheep. | 05:04 | |
| linuxguy2009 | mase_work: Umm no it has an option to verify and it works. Maybe I will give brasero a second chance. Maybe it works better now than before. | 05:04 |
| doskye | if i wanted to back up my system as is, would i just make a copy of my /home folder? | 05:04 |
| Dr_Willis | laymansnerd: i perfer how kde asks what to do.. :() | 05:04 |
| JamesHoldsworth | Can anyone here help me with a wirelessissue? | 05:04 |
| Dr_Willis | doskye: that would backup the users settings/files.. thats it. | 05:04 |
| linuxguy2009 | Does brasero have a verify and also support multisession? | 05:04 |
| JamesHoldsworth | I feel kind of stuped honestly | 05:04 |
| laymansnerd | Dr_Willis: i love me my gnome :-) | 05:04 |
| CarlFK1 | doskye: "system" kinda implies /etc and 'stuff' | 05:04 |
| Dr_Willis | laymansnerd: the file manager is useable.. but lacking in many ways | 05:05 |
| Kamokow | JamesHoldsworth: depends, define the problem more. | 05:05 |
| mase_work | linuxguy2009: so you have verified it manually , ie not using brasereo or nero ? | 05:05 |
| RedLance | JamesHoldsworth: I'll try | 05:05 |
| JamesHoldsworth | I have a Dell Vostro 1500 | 05:05 |
| linuxguy2009 | Yes I verify with nero. | 05:05 |
| JamesHoldsworth | i have the latest Ubuntu, i've had a few versions of it | 05:05 |
| mase_work | linuxguy2009: then no you haven't done it manually | 05:05 |
| laymansnerd | true...but i like the level of stuff that can be customized in gnome | 05:05 |
| kubuntuuser | is it normal to have two "monitor" and two "screen" sectyions in xorg.conf? | 05:05 |
| CarlFK1 | whats the /proc thing I mess with to disable cpu freq scaling? | 05:05 |
| JamesHoldsworth | but i always had a wired connection | 05:05 |
| doskye | how could i back up my system as is? | 05:05 |
| linuxguy2009 | Why would i need to verify a CD manually when Nero does it for me after every burn? | 05:05 |
| Kamokow | and wireless doesnt work? | 05:05 |
| JamesHoldsworth | now,I have access to wired connections | 05:05 |
| Dr_Willis | laymansnerd: the level of stuff that can be customized is rather minimal/bare compared to other window manager/desktops ::) | 05:05 |
| flightcrank | do u use "fdisk" to see all hard drives connected to a system ? | 05:06 |
| JamesHoldsworth | but its very inconvenient | 05:06 |
| Kamokow | If wireless doesnt work you need to get drivers | 05:06 |
| JamesHoldsworth | wireless wont even show up | 05:06 |
| te_ | doskye: Get a usb hd and use g4u | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | flightcrank: i tend to use 'sudo fdisk -l' yes... for that task | 05:06 |
| mase_work | linuxguy2009: because either Nero or brasereo is lying if they are using the same burner | 05:06 |
| JamesHoldsworth | when I look at the "Hardware Drivers" thing | 05:06 |
| Kamokow | Yea, you are going to need to look for the drivers, and look for a linux version for your model | 05:06 |
| JamesHoldsworth | it says I have the "Broadcom" one or whatever | 05:06 |
| linuxguy2009 | When i used to use brasero and k3b I always had to manually verify.always never failed. | 05:06 |
| JamesHoldsworth | it says its enabled | 05:06 |
| JamesHoldsworth | but not in use | 05:06 |
| JamesHoldsworth | the Network Connections has a wireless setting | 05:06 |
| laymansnerd | well compiz helps me a little bit ;-) but i'm still somewhat of a noob....so i'm sure once i get a little better i can move on to bigger and better things | 05:06 |
| JamesHoldsworth | and i haveall of the info there | 05:06 |
| JamesHoldsworth | but there's no "connection" thing | 05:07 |
| linuxguy2009 | Had something to do with the end of the disk notg being kept track of or something i was told back in 8.10 release. | 05:07 |
| JamesHoldsworth | So I think I have the driver | 05:07 |
| laymansnerd | my training wheels are still on :-D | 05:07 |
| Kamokow | No, it will show up without the driver | 05:07 |

| kubuntuuser | Ionly just instaled kubuntu 9.04 on fresh hardware | 05:09 |
| kubuntuuser | then tried to get compiz going, now I have line glitches going across the screen | 05:10 |

| Cosmo1 | I am having a problem my keyboard layout keeps changing from dvorak back to qwerty even though I have removed the qwerty layout and it seems at random times it goes back to qwerty and I have to run setxkbmap dvorak in a launcher. How do I fix this so that it stays dvorak? I am noticing a slight pause in my system when it happens. | 05:11 |
| kubuntuuser | integrated ati 3200 iirc | 05:11 |
| scunizi | kubuntuuser: compiz can cause issues on some card/driver combos.. what happens when you turn compiz off? | 05:11 |
| kubuntuuser | how do I do that? | 05:12 |

| musikgoat|main | anyone seen a loss of xvid mpeg4 decoding lately? i have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed, but totem thinks the plugin is not available | 05:13 |
| vassler | does anyone know how to apply a new splash screen from a tar.gz file? | 05:13 |
| Dr_Willis | doskye: tar, for files.. if the usb is a ext2/3 filesystem, or dd for a 'image' of the drie... | 05:14 |
| Dr_Willis | !splash | vassler | 05:14 |
| ubottu | vassler: To change the Gnome splash screen, use gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor. | 05:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm thats usplash perhaps? | 05:14 |
| Draconicus | scunizi: No. Just one swap. There's really only four partitions, too. Not even sure what one of them is, come to think of it... | 05:14 |
| Dr_Willis | !usplash | 05:14 |
| ubottu | To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 05:14 |
| Cosmo1 | noisymouse: I cant when I run that it does not give me an option to set the layout to dvorak | 05:14 |
| hiep | :(( | 05:14 |
| hiep | i can't conect yahoo | 05:15 |
| Draconicus | hiep: They updated their protocol. Pidgin has yet to catch up. hang tight. | 05:15 |
| Dr_Willis | hiep: be more verbose... do we have to guess you mean 'yahoo messenger' for the IM client? | 05:15 |
| doskye | Dr_Willis: what do you mean an image of the drive? | 05:15 |
| Dr_Willis | doskye: a total Image/clone in a 'file' of the drive.. like an .iso image is of a 'cd' | 05:16 |
| hiep | yes | 05:16 |
| noisymouse | Cosmo1: what country did you select? | 05:16 |
| hiep | i want to have a software like yahoo messenger | 05:16 |
| Dr_Willis | at one time One could fix the yahoo im stuff by adding the following line to /etc/hosts (but i think this may no longer be the case) test by adding to/etc/hosts --> 66.163.181.170 scs.msg.yahoo.com | 05:16 |
| Dr_Willis | hiep: there are other IM services that exist. | 05:16 |
| doskye | Dr_Willis: something you could copy to the drive later? | 05:17 |
| linuxguy2009 | Ok guys I just burned a multisession CDRW with Brasero and it said it successfully burned it. How do i verify? | 05:17 |
| hiep | pidgin internet messenger of me is error | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | doskye: yes.. you can 'dd' it back to the drive. or some other drive.. this is the old-skool extreme way to backup.restore drives/disks | 05:17 |
| oldude67 | i think hiep is not able to understand english very well? | 05:17 |
| te_ | doskye: It's how you do a total backup, you create an image of the drive, so that it can later be totally restored. | 05:17 |
| hiep | pidgin internet messenger of me is error | 05:18 |
| Cosmo1 | noisymouse: it didnt give me an option on that either, it starts at keyboard model: and I have to choose generic 105-key (intel) PC, my keyboard is not listed it is an ideazon merc stealth | 05:18 |

| earthmeLon | hiep: have you tried: sudo apt-get remove pidgin | sudo apt-get install pidgin | 05:20 |
| noisymouse | Cosmo1: Hmm, for me after selecting the model you select a country and then a keyboard layout (one of them is dvorak) | 05:20 |
| hiep | I want to repair pidgin internet messenger but i can't | 05:20 |

| wdyrt | is there a recommended way of installing gtk+ 1.2 on ubuntu | 05:21 |
| ProfessorX | Does any program in Ubuntu close down if I disconnect from the puTTy terminal window? | 05:21 |
| vassler | soooooooo... does alt+ctrl+backspace does not restart x? anymore? | 05:21 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: they should all exit.. if the user disconnets.. use screen, or the nohup command to prevent that.. (screen is worth learning about) | 05:22 |
| JStullick | Screen rocks. | 05:22 |
| Oceanic | vassler, you can enable Ctrl+Alt+backspace by installing dontzap | 05:22 |
| te_ | !info dcfldd | 05:23 |
| ubottu | dcfldd (source: dcfldd): enhanced version of dd for forensics and security. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.4.1-2 (jaunty), package size 35 kB, installed size 124 kB | 05:23 |
| JStullick | nohup will keep the program running in the background. | 05:23 |
| wdyrt | vassler, i believe its an F button instead of backspace, but im not gonna find out | 05:23 |
| extor | If I copy the .mozilla directory from an old debian system to a new ubuntu system will it transfer my cached passwords? | 05:23 |
| wdyrt | Oceanic, why is there a package for that? | 05:23 |
| ProfessorX | Dr_Willis: So if I'm running a gaming server on a Ubuntu VPS server and i d/c from the puTTy's termial window, the gaming servers will shut down too? | 05:23 |

| linuxguy2009 | This is exactly why I went to Nero Linux 3 its dependable. | 05:23 |
| Cosmo1 | noisymouse: it says "unsupported setting in configuration file: the configuration file /etc/default/console-setup specifies a keyboard layout and variant that are not supported by the configuration program. because of that, no questions about the keyboard layout will be asked and your current configuration will be preserved. | 05:23 |
| fotoflo | quick question | 05:23 |
| r4ban | how can i start the grub prompt on the alternate jaunty amd64 CD? | 05:24 |
| Dr_Willis | ProfessorX: a true 'server/service' is different and should spawn to the background.. it will depend on the servier. | 05:24 |
| fotoflo | whoops, wrong # | 05:24 |
| r4ban | i'm getting grub error 15, i have no CD drive, i'm booting from USB | 05:24 |
| losher | linuxguy2009: I know how to verify a cd, but I don't know anything about multisession. I've never burnt a multisession disk in my life | 05:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. i recall some how using my Wii remote as a mouse.. but cant recall how i did it... | 05:24 |
| r4ban | that is, usb with alternate install | 05:24 |
| Dr_Willis | !wii | 05:24 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about wii | 05:24 |

| Oceanic | wdyrt, for people who want to enable such an option on jaunty, since beginners will find it strange if it starts logging them out | 05:25 |
| vassler | OKAY, on gnome-look.org: splash screen, how do you install them? | 05:25 |
| linuxguy2009 | losher: I see the md5 file it put on my disk it has all the md5 sums of every file on the disk. I tried telling it to use it and it wont. | 05:25 |
| Dr_Willis | vassler: a GNOME splash screen.. i think one opens the appearance controlpanel tool and just drag/drop over to it. | 05:25 |
| linuxguy2009 | losher: How do you verify a disk-at-once normal burn then? | 05:25 |
| wdyrt | Oceanic, i find a package to enable that a bit over the top, isnt it just 1 line in the X config that does that? | 05:25 |
| hiep | my pidgin isn't still normal | 05:26 |
| noisymouse | Cosmo1: Ok, what I would do would be make a copy of /etc/default/console-setup and then delete the contents of the file | 05:26 |
| geirha | fotoflo: adduser USER GROUP | 05:26 |
| noisymouse | Cosmo1: and then run sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup again | 05:26 |
| fotoflo | geirha: that wasnt my question | 05:26 |
| hiep | my pidgin can't connect to yahoo | 05:26 |
| losher | linuxguy2009: normally, I would just md5sum the whole disk e.g. md5sum -b - < /dev/sr0 | 05:26 |
| hiep | :(( | 05:26 |
| oldude67 | hiep your pidgen isnt going to either. | 05:26 |
| wdyrt | hiep, ive been having similar problems too, i think yahoo have changed things around again | 05:26 |
| scunizi | earthmeLon: that's not the issue.. pidgin is broken for yahoo right now. you have to wait for an update | 05:27 |
| RedLance | hiep: You need to update it to 2.5.7 | 05:27 |
| Dr_Willis | hiep: thate because yahoo likes to break the 3rd party clients.. try the yahoo site. or the meebo.com client site untill the people 'fix' the yahoo clients for linux. | 05:27 |
| geirha | fotoflo: Well, ok. The groups should be listed with , (comma) between, not space | 05:27 |
| Dr_Willis | hiep: or do like RedLance said. :) and upgrade.. | 05:27 |
| fotoflo | common no space | 05:27 |
| fotoflo | ok | 05:27 |
| fotoflo | thanks | 05:27 |
| hiep | thanks so much | 05:28 |
| Oceanic | wdyrt, am not sure, maybe having a package is more beginner friendly? since you can enable and disable it Ctrl+Alt+Backspace with it | 05:28 |
| earthmeLon | I am using mkvmerge and the resulting mkv audio stutters. The ac3 file has no stutters. Here is my mkvmerge command and VLC's errors, if anybody is interested: http://pastebin.com/m6d03c283 If anybody knows of a better place to ask this question, that would be appreciated | 05:29 |
| linuxguy2009 | losher: Ok I know how to do that with the md5 sommand. Now what is there to compare that to, to actually make sure the md5sum is correct? | 05:29 |
| linuxguy2009 | hehe | 05:29 |
| wdyrt | Oceanic, but why a package, it could be done with a simple script, or there could be an option in a GUI somewhere, i really think a package is just gonna be unnecessary and just make things, well, silly | 05:29 |
| losher | linuxguy2009: googling for 'ubuntu multi session cd' isn't very promising | 05:29 |
| linuxguy2009 | Think Ill stick with my nero it just works. | 05:30 |
| losher | linuxguy2009: that's the problem: I don't know how multisessions appear, or how you select a session | 05:30 |

| vik | #engagemedia | 05:31 |
| linuxguy2009 | losher: Well lets just talk as if i did a regular old burn. What would i compare the outputed md5sum to in order to make sure its correct? | 05:31 |
| Oceanic | wdyrt, I guess its easier to install, I'm not a developer or anything, i'm just your average user =) | 05:32 |
| losher | linuxguy2009: md5sum works best when you're burning an iso. You would compare the iso md5sum with that on the disk. An alternative to this would be to mount the disk, and compare files using diff -r e.g. mount /dev/sr0; diff -r /media/cdrom <directory containing files> | 05:33 |
| wdyrt | Oceanic, ok :-) well i am a bit above your average user, its not a big deal that its in a package, its just not needed | 05:33 |
| kuitang | Hi, my apache ignores ServerSignature Off directive | 05:33 |
| JamesHoldsworth | Hello again everyone! | 05:34 |
| kuitang | I tried inserting "ServerSignature Off" in both apache2.conf and httpd.conf (separately) and restarted Apache, but the server signature still appears on error pages | 05:34 |
| wdyrt | kuitang, this may be a silly question, but have you tried restarting apache | 05:34 |
| kuitang | yes | 05:35 |
| linuxguy2009 | losher: Hmm strange. i would hope that they sometime in the future they would make a simpler way to verify. I know the command line enough to do it, but I want to rule out human error and just know that all of my hours and hours of package collecting doesnt get ruined by an unreliable app. Thats what happened before I had no definite way to check.Kinds bites. | 05:35 |

| extor | losher, I donno if it uses the keyring or not but if it does then chroot might fix things | 05:56 |
| st23am | has anyone else had a problem w/ the installer locking up just before the partition manager? | 05:57 |
| danbhfive | bullgard4: well, if you configure an interface via /etc/network/interfaces, then nm will ignore that interface. You have to leave it unconfigured | 05:57 |
| Rob235 | is qt4 an alternative to gtk/metacity or an addition | 05:57 |
| st23am | it loads the keyboard layout and then tries to start the partition manager and just cursors | 05:57 |
| Rob235 | nevermind | 05:57 |
| Rob235 | got my answer | 05:57 |
| gregh7470 | JamesHoldsworth - type the following in terminal and reboot : echo wl|sudo tee -a /etc/modules | 05:58 |
| losher | extor: you should be able to mount /home and copy the contents of /home/xtor/.mozilla. The passwords are in there (but encrypted). They don't use the keyring in Ubuntu. | 05:58 |
| extor | I've already created a user xtor on my new box and copied over the .mozilla directory but no go | 05:58 |
| losher | extor: 'no go' meaning what exactly? | 05:58 |
| extor | the cached passwords are just not there | 05:58 |

| losher | extor: not there, or did you forget to tell firefox to use the 'profile' you copied over. Otherwise I think it will just start a new 'profile' from scratch... | 05:59 |

| monimc | omgosh theres so many people here lmao | 06:09 |
| monimc | But I have a question | 06:10 |
| losher | monimc: we're not a social group, just ask your question. If anyone knows, they'll answer... | 06:10 |
| monimc | How is it possible that Ubuntu is running slower than Windows XP on the same computer? | 06:10 |
| robertc1985 | i'm unabe to do a fresh install, i am running from wubi on some older hardware | 06:10 |
| chelz | robertc1985: back up all of your important data then do a fresh install? | 06:11 |

| losher | monimc: 9.04? | 06:11 |
| monimc | Yup | 06:11 |
| sage_ | #alsa moncky | 06:11 |
| scunizi | monimc: do your updates (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade) then activate the restricted driver for your video card. If you have ati just hope that it's not one of the cards that the latest ati driver disabled. | 06:11 |
| sage_ | monimc, | 06:11 |
| chelz | robertc1985: or loadup a livecd, resize your windows partition, then install in the freespace. optionally later you can remove your older ubuntu, after transferring your data over. | 06:12 |

| robertc1985 | is there a version of wubi hardy that uses an alternate image? | 06:12 |
| losher | monimc: 9.04 is notorious for sound problems, sluggishness, flash problems and some others issues.... | 06:12 |
| sage_ | monimc, | 06:12 |
| monimc | yes? | 06:12 |
| sage_ | install the new hda drivers | 06:12 |
| chelz | robertc1985: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#Upgrading | 06:12 |

| sage_ | monimc, #alsa | 06:13 |
| fotoflo | hm, can I use users and groups in samba or am I forced to use user lists? | 06:13 |
| chelz | robertc1985: wubi is to test out ubuntu, not to be a long term solution. it sounds like you are ready to have a dedicated install. | 06:13 |
| monimc | in the termial? | 06:13 |
| robertc1985 | actually no linux distro works on here for some reason | 06:13 |

| ziroday | Hilikus: mpd? or an icecast stream perhaps. | 07:06 |
| superbele | hi :) | 07:06 |
| the-dude | maxaga: try dmi-decode ? | 07:06 |
| scunizi | b1n42y: I think that would be like the nvidia driver, non-free virtualbox driver, vmware etc.. they all make kernel mods. | 07:06 |
| Hilikus | ziroday: for an icecast what would be the interface?? the frontend | 07:07 |
| jack82 | Did you guys give up on me? | 07:07 |
| b1n42y | scunizi, ahh the mods, thanks, that sucks | 07:07 |
| ziroday | Hilikus: there is no interface, you just dial into the icecast station, similar to (internet) radio | 07:07 |
| threepointonefou | ziroday: still the same | 07:08 |
| scunizi | b1n42y: why? what's up | 07:08 |

| b1n42y | scunizi, well i believe it takes me to .30 so should be good till october | 07:10 |
| b1n42y | scunizi, but I would have to add all the modules, maybe ill just put up slow gfx | 07:11 |

| jamieleshaw | compiz is your visual effects thing | 08:54 |
| jg | and how do i do that | 08:54 |
| ActionParsnip | gralco: then you need a repo with a later version, or compile the code for it | 08:55 |
| gralco | but according to launchpad thats the the right dependency | 08:55 |
| jamieleshaw | System->Appearance->Visual Effects->None->Close | 08:55 |

| jg | noo | 09:00 |
| Terralthra | it does not have any output or error messages when I type the xsetwacom command, but it also does not rotate the input | 09:00 |

| madalin | rdz: excluding a backup :) | 09:07 |
| bullgard4 | madalin: He needs to create two new partitions for Ubuntu and install Ubuntu there. | 09:07 |
| rdz | madalin, ubuntu installation won't overwrite your windows partition.. however, you need to get some free (unpartitioned) disk space for the ubuntu installation | 09:07 |
| rdz | madalin, from what i remember, ubuntu cd lets you resized the ntfs (windows) partition | 09:08 |
| rdz | madalin, if possible i'd recommend to do it with windows tool (from a windows cd or with partition magic) | 09:08 |
| madalin | what are the requirements of ubuntu ? Desktop version | 09:09 |
| ActionParsnip | rdz: it can and will, if you tell it to use the entire disk it will wipe the drive and use the whole disk for ubuntu | 09:09 |

| moncky | pirx: postgres may have a .deb file which you can use, otherwise you are downloading and compiling the source I am afraid | 09:18 |
| kbp | pronoy: or you can just go to adobe site and download source and copy it to the plugin folder of Opera | 09:18 |
| kbrosnan | pirx: likely compile from source unless they provide a deb | 09:18 |
| pronoy | kbp; i am reinstalling flashplugin-nonfree | 09:18 |

| papul | how do i download the packages without installing them | 09:33 |
| papul | lwells, hi | 09:33 |
| bullgard4 | Terralthra: I inderstand that /sys/ is a temporary direcotory. So any changes I'd make in /sys/module/rfkill/paramters are not permanent. Am I correct? | 09:33 |
| rdz | GuidMorrow, yo.. i don't know how to do everything correctly without havint the ability to test it | 09:33 |
| rdz | GuidMorrow, i don't have a floppy drive here | 09:34 |
| Terralthra | the parameters there aren't changeable, per se | 09:34 |
| Terralthra | they are parameters of your system environment | 09:34 |
| rdz | GuidMorrow, anyway, before issueing the dd commmand, you should unmount the drive: sudo umount /dev/fd0/floppy | 09:34 |
| nevyn | bullgard4: unless you understand what you're doing you shouldn't be messing with them pretty much. | 09:34 |
| Terralthra | you can't "change them" there | 09:34 |
| nevyn | Terralthra: well... | 09:34 |
| Terralthra | (at least, wrt the rfkill) | 09:35 |
| papul | how do i download the packages without installing them?????? | 09:35 |
| papul | !ask | 09:35 |
| ubottu | 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. :-) | 09:35 |

| mistergibson | Terrathra: is there a way to recover from an upgrade that chokes at the last minute? | 09:35 |
| Terralthra | mistergibson: um, usually, eyes | 09:36 |

| loloftherings | y | 09:36 |
| Terralthra | the update manager will try to recover | 09:36 |
| papul | how do i download the packages without installing them?????? | 09:36 |
| mistergibson | Terralthra: ok, I'll give it a whirl and see what happens ... thx | 09:36 |
| bullgard4 | Terralthra: How can I switch off the rf kill switch using a command-line command? | 09:36 |
| GuidMorrow | this doesn't make sense... a 297.2 MiB file on a 1.44 MB disk...? | 09:36 |
| Terralthra | bullgard4: depends on your specific hardware and WMI/ACPI | 09:37 |
| Terralthra | in other words, on what computer you are using and its driver support | 09:37 |
| GuidMorrow | Unknown file type | 09:37 |
| rdz | GuidMorrow, what is the filename of your floppy device? | 09:38 |
| rdz | GuidMorrow, can you give me the output of: ls /dev/fd0 ? | 09:38 |
| linux | papul i would try disabling the update manager if that's what u mean? | 09:38 |
| linux | oops | 09:39 |
| papul | how do i download the packages without installing them?????? | 09:39 |
| lwells | I just created a partition for data, but when I try to open it, it tells me I do not have any permissions, how can i fix that? | 09:39 |
| linux | papul i would try disabling the update manager if that's what u mean? | 09:39 |
| rdz | lwells, what format has the new partition? | 09:39 |
| g-hennux | hi! | 09:39 |
| lwells | ext4 | 09:39 |
| papul | linux, is there any way to download the packages that i need as deb? | 09:40 |
| bullgard4 | Terralthra: The computer is Medion MD97600. the driver is the moddule ipw2200, an ubiquituous driver. | 09:40 |
| GuidMorrow | It says "1.5 MB Media" | 09:40 |
| lwells | Sorry , also needed to say I mounted that partition already | 09:40 |
| Terralthra | the rfkill is usually something on your computer, not the specific card | 09:40 |
| jamieleshaw | g-hennux: hello | 09:40 |
| g-hennux | in /sys/devices/pci0000:00, I do have several subfolders, that, in total, eat up more than a gig of storage. any idea what that is? | 09:40 |
| rdz | lwells, you probably mounted it as root? maybe that is why | 09:40 |
| Terralthra | tried looking for model name on the forums to see if someone else has had this problem? | 09:40 |
| jamieleshaw | no clue | 09:40 |
| lwells | yes actually I did, guess that was a mistake rdz | 09:41 |
| rdz | lwells, if you have a folder that should be accessed by a user, change owenership of the folder | 09:41 |
| linux | im using ubuntu and i just download deb seems to auto install | 09:41 |
| rdz | lwells, no it's not, but of course, then your user cannot access it, but only root | 09:41 |
| lwells | how do i give the user permission then | 09:41 |
| lwells | do a chmod? | 09:42 |
| masterk | Hi. I am trying to set my resolution above 1360x768 but that is the highest the NVIDIA X Server Settings is showing, how can I make it list higher resolutions? | 09:42 |
| bullgard4 | Terralthra: Please do not use generalitties if I have a specific question. This computer does not have a hardware rf kill switch. | 09:42 |
| rdz | lwells, when you let ubuntu mount it automatically , then your user should have access to the mounted filesystem | 09:42 |
| GuidMorrow | rdz: the mount point is /media/floppy0 | 09:42 |
| Terralthra | bullgard4: Please do not expect me to know the specifics of a computer I have never even seen | 09:42 |
| loloftherings | masterk, it's possible that your graphics card doesn't support any higher resolutions. | 09:42 |
| masterk | It does support it in windows just fine. | 09:42 |
| rdz | lwells, you could do: 'chown -R user:user foldername' in orde to change ownership of a specific folder | 09:42 |
| bullgard4 | Terralthra: Thank you. | 09:42 |
| filsmaudit | When does Karmix Koala goes out? | 09:43 |
| lwells | rdz, i mounted it with the "mount -t" command | 09:43 |
| rdz | GuidMorrow, yo, i would like to know not the mountpoint, but the device name | 09:43 |
| loloftherings | !karmic | 09:43 |
| ubottu | Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 09:43 |
| rdz | lwells, on ubuntu, when you attach a new drive, it is mounted automatically with the permission of the current user | 09:43 |
| GuidMorrow | It doesn't have specific information, it just says "PC floppy drive" | 09:43 |
| lwells | thanks rdz, got it to work | 09:44 |
| masterk | I tried setting the Option "metamodes" line to the resolution I wanted, but it appears that is ignored in the xorg.conf | 09:44 |

| joebodo | masterk u using nvidia ? | 09:45 |
| masterk | Yes. | 09:45 |
| joebodo | masterk what would i get for giving you the solution :) | 09:45 |
| rdz | GuidMorrow, do 'df -h', then give me the line containing /media/floppy0 | 09:46 |

| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: make sure you have compiz-config-settings-manager installed. Also, compiz-fusion lets you switch easily between the fancy effects & normal settings. | 09:48 |
| linux | hmmm papul has a good point if you download a package and you don't want it installed which would u disable package manager or update manager? | 09:48 |
| aeonoris | I was making an audio project on Audacity, but when I tried to save it, Audacity froze up. Is there any way I can retrieve the stuff I was working on? | 09:48 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: compiz-fusion-icon that is (the last). | 09:48 |
| joebodo | masterk nvidia then overwrote my xorg.conf and i lost some of the stuff i put in - but ill show what's there | 09:48 |
| joebodo | !pastebin | 09:49 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic | 09:49 |
| ubuntunewbie | I don't what's the problem , when enable visual effect , I can't play any video file | 09:49 |
| joebodo | masterk http://paste.ubuntu.com/208812/ | 09:49 |
| n0gear | can i move files with FreeNX? | 09:49 |
| linux | then to how do i disable package manager temporarily? | 09:50 |
| masterk | Hmm, that almost works joebodo, but when I tell xrandr to use the new resolution I get "Configure crtc 0 failed" | 09:51 |
| DJones | linux: Do you mean you've manually updated a package and you don't want the package manager to auto-update that package in future? | 09:51 |
| mobi-sheep | linux: sudo aptitude download <xyz> && echo "lolwut?" | 09:51 |
| ubuntunewbie | <djiezes> , I had tried to enable compiz or visual effect customize by disabling all the option effect but still video will keep on using full cpu usage and within a second it goes blank screen | 09:51 |
| postscript | mobi-sheep: haha | 09:51 |
| joebodo | masterk i only tried setting the rez through nvidia settings | 09:51 |
| rdz | ubuntunewbie, playing video and having all fx enabled might has problems with certain combinations of graphics drives, graphics cards and video players | 09:52 |
| rdz | ubuntunewbie, what player are you using' | 09:52 |
| om26er | hello | 09:52 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: maybe install compiz-fusion-icon & whenever you play video, disable the visual effects? | 09:52 |
| linux | yeah if i don't want to install but i want the package | 09:52 |
| om26er | /dev/sda1 /media/ssd ext4 rw,user,reltime,auto 0 2 | 09:52 |
| om26er | is there any mistake | 09:52 |
| rdz | ubuntunewbie, i would suggest as well what djiezes said | 09:53 |
| om26er | help me plz | 09:53 |
| rdz | ubuntunewbie, you might also want to try mplayer... it has different video output options... try -vo xv and -vo gl | 09:53 |
| ubuntunewbie | <djiezes><rdz> I had enable (use custom set of effect ) and create a profile with all option disable | 09:53 |
| rdz | but mplayer is only fun, if you a bit comfortable with the command line | 09:54 |

| linux | well its late and i need sleep bye all | 09:54 |
| om26er | Te_ wat 2 do my ssd is not automounting | 09:54 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: i'm talking about something else, go to your package manager (synaptic), look for compiz-fusion-icon & install that application. It'll let you switch easily from the system tray between effects & no-effects. | 09:54 |
| om26er | /dev/sda1 /media/ssd ext4 rw,user,reltime,auto 0 2 | 09:54 |
| om26er | te_: /dev/sda1 /media/ssd ext4 rw,user,reltime,auto 0 2 | 09:54 |
| pronoy_ | kbp you there ? | 09:55 |
| te_ | What are you mounting? | 09:55 |
| ubuntunewbie | <djiezes>looking now | 09:55 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: it's called "fusion-icon" | 09:55 |
| te_ | om26er: The mount point, did YOU create it? | 09:56 |
| om26er | yes | 09:56 |
| om26er | its created | 09:56 |
| te_ | om26er: Not a good place | 09:56 |
| om26er | /mnt/ssd? | 09:56 |
| te_ | some place other than /mdeia | 09:57 |
| om26er | ok | 09:57 |
| om26er | i changed | 09:57 |
| ubuntunewbie | <djiezes> installed , what should I do next ? | 09:57 |
| om26er | te_ shud i restart ?? | 09:57 |
| te_ | om26er: mount points in /meida are created and deleted by udev | 09:57 |
| te_ | om26er: no | 09:57 |
| user_ | How do I make xmodmap remap button 9 on my mouse to button 8? | 09:58 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: well, whenever you run that applciation, you'll have an icon in your system tray, if you right click that, you can change window manager : compiz is the 3d one, metacity the non-3d normal one. | 09:58 |
| om26er | te_ ok then? | 09:58 |
| te_ | om26er: redo the fstab entry | 09:58 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: so whenever you want to watch a video, you can switch to metacity | 09:58 |
| ubuntunewbie | <djiezes> , I dont see anything at my system tray | 09:58 |
| om26er | te_: tell me the | 09:58 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: If you want to run that application whenever you computer boots, you'll have to add it to your startup programs. | 09:59 |
| indus | ubuntunewbie: check in menu and run it | 09:59 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: you have to run the application first (Applications > System Tools > F | 09:59 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: you have to run the application first (Applications > System Tools > Compiz Fusion Icon) | 09:59 |
| indus | ubuntunewbie: djiezes:we are talking about the compiz fusion icon right? | 09:59 |
| te_ | om26er: change the mount point and then mount it and see if it works. | 09:59 |
| user_ | How do I make xmodmap remap button 9 on my mouse to button 8? | 09:59 |
| djiezes | indus: yes | 09:59 |
| te_ | om26er: then reboot | 09:59 |
| joebodo | masterk u might want to select the rez with the nvidia panel first - save it so that it mangles it back to what it needs | 09:59 |
| ubuntunewbie | ah saw it at application system tools | 09:59 |
| indus | djiezes: ya that will be appearing under menu>others or somewhere | 09:59 |
| om26er | te_ ok | 10:00 |
| spxza | I am pushing out ubuntu on a large number of machines. I guess it would be better to use an LTS (most recently 8.04). However, I'm putting new hardware into those machines, and the current linux kernel on 8.04 is 2.6.28, which may not support the drivers. | 10:00 |
| te_ | om26er: see if you can mount it manually with mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 | 10:00 |
| spxza | so, my option only option would be to use 9.04? | 10:00 |
| indus | spxza: what kinda hardware | 10:00 |
| joerch_ | .ircd.de | 10:00 |
| te_ | om26er: Or mount -a | 10:01 |
| spxza | indus: 802.11n cards | 10:01 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: if you want it every time your pc starts, then go to System > Preferences > StartUp Applications & Add it there : Add > and in 'command' you type "fusion-icon -n" (without the quotes). | 10:01 |
| te_ | om26er: What is it that you are mounting? | 10:01 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: if you do that, the app will run always | 10:01 |
| indus | spxza: hmm a network component,then yes 9.04 is a safer bet | 10:01 |
| ubuntunewbie | <djiezes> thanks a lot for it | 10:02 |
| djiezes | ubuntunewbie: no problem, i use it all the time, because it doesn't play well with full-screen video & some games. just swtich to metacity whenever you run into these kind of problems. | 10:02 |
| ubuntunewbie | but I'd like to know what happen actually , why compuz doesn't work well with video ? | 10:02 |

With 'jaunty' I do the same yet nothing is even added to grub boot menu or /boot/ with any xen supported kernels, however /etc/xen etc. is all there. Any changes with this regards? I've tried reading up some info but nothing useful available. thanks. | 11:35 |

| Lord-Readman | because i use webmin to login outside of the network | 11:41 |

| Lord-Readman | its a webserver and port all ports are closed exect 80 and 443 | 11:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Lord-Readman: you can login to ssh, and its 128bit secure | 11:42 |
| Lord-Readman | yes but its blocked in firewall | 11:42 |

| Lord-Readman | I set it that way to just make it safer | 11:43 |

| jjnw | Dekko: not 100% sure about, but have you checked the UUID of the swap file in /etc/fstab and /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume | 12:24 |
| gauravsrf | how to view remote desktop of windows machine on linux | 12:24 |
| jjnw | !vnc | 12:24 |
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 12:24 |
| perlsyntax | Has anyone install eclipse 3.5 on ubuntu 9.04 | 12:24 |
| janisozaur | fotoflo, in your /var/cache/apt/archives there should be apache2.2-common*.deb file, you can open it with archive roller and look for sites-available/default file in it - that's the file you want | 12:25 |
| perlsyntax | Or is there a deb link for it? | 12:25 |
| jjnw | !vnc > gauravsrf | 12:25 |
| ubottu | gauravsrf, please see my private message | 12:25 |
| fotoflo | janisozaur: right0 - thats the kind of answer i was looking for ;-) | 12:26 |
| indus | jjnw: can i actually see my windows desktop with vnc? wallpaper etc? | 12:26 |
| janisozaur | perlsyntax, i usually just extract eclipse and run it this way, if you really want the .deb, you can try !ppa | 12:26 |
| jjnw | indus: yes | 12:26 |
| fotoflo | im using ubuntuserver.... what do i use to open the deb | 12:26 |
| indus | jjnw: is this safe? | 12:27 |
| perlsyntax | What the ppa? | 12:27 |
| bart416 | fotoflo, sudo dpkg --install file.deb | 12:27 |
| janisozaur | !ppa | perlsyntax | 12:27 |
| ubottu | perlsyntax: With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 12:27 |
| ziroday | fotoflo: sudo dpkg --install /path/to/package | 12:27 |

| sivan26f | Hello , i am planing to install windows vista on other partition does i should be worry that Ubuntu grub will be destroyed ? should i do some steps before of the installation ? | 12:27 |
| ziroday | !grub | sivan26f see the first link | 12:28 |
| ubottu | sivan26f see the first link: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 12:28 |
| janisozaur | ziroday, nixiepixel bart416 "open the deb" as in "see what files are inside the packege" i guess | 12:28 |
| bart416 | meh :| | 12:28 |
| bart416 | dpkg -h | 12:28 |
| bart416 | learn to use it | 12:28 |
| jjnw | indus: it can be safe, you need to read the help docs. | 12:28 |
| janisozaur | fotoflo, i think it's standard gzip compression, you should be able to gunzip it | 12:28 |
| indus | jjnw: is it in synaptic? i see vnc - common vnc server etc | 12:29 |
| mobi-sheep | jjnw: Did e came back? | 12:29 |
| papul_ | !info beryl | 12:29 |
| ubottu | Package beryl does not exist in jaunty | 12:29 |
| papul_ | how do i install beryl | 12:29 |
| fotoflo | >fotoflo, in your /var/cache/apt/archives there should be apache2.2-common -- not there | 12:30 |
| bart416 | actually janisozaur, dpkg -L file.deb | 12:30 |
| bart416 | I think that works | 12:30 |
| gauravsrf | jjnw: u didn't got me i need to view on linux my window machine desktop . so please advice the same and freenx is not my cup of tea as i am a totally newbie to this linux . | 12:30 |
| indus | papul_: why do you need it? its merged with compiz now | 12:30 |
| nixiepixel | papul_ - beryl no longer exists, it is a part of the compiz project | 12:30 |
| jjnw | mobi-sheep: have not him/her | 12:30 |
| papul_ | ohh i didnt know that | 12:30 |
| bart416 | nixiepixel, or simply use KDE4 and realize that it has most of the stuff built in | 12:31 |
| indus | papul_: now you do :) , why do u need beryl anyway | 12:31 |
| nixiepixel | sivan26f - I made a video about that, maybe it will help you :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtBBl6HvdpM | 12:31 |
| nixiepixel | bart416 - What? | 12:31 |
| papul_ | indus, i want to theme my system | 12:31 |
| indus | nixiepixel: you promoting yourself again? :) | 12:31 |
| fotoflo | downloading from apache.org | 12:31 |
| nixiepixel | indus - Hehe, always ;) | 12:31 |
| bart416 | nixiepixel, yeah KDE4 can actually do most of the stuff beryl did :P | 12:31 |
| bart416 | check the effects tab in the control panel | 12:32 |
| janisozaur | bart416, i guess that's it. and to extract the file from .deb i'd use -x, right? | 12:32 |
| indus | papul_: compiz will be already installed on your system | 12:32 |
| nixiepixel | bart416 - Well he isn't in #kubuntu, so he needs compiz ;) | 12:32 |
| jjnw | indus: yes,that's it. Install the server on the machine you want to control and a client on the machine you are sitting in front of | 12:32 |
| om26er | plz help me opera is not playing flash contents | 12:32 |
| bart416 | that I wouldn't know janisozaur | 12:32 |
| om26er | i insstalled flash player | 12:32 |
| om26er | and now there is a white screen at the flash content | 12:32 |
| indus | jjnw: i see vnc server but i dont see any package called vnc client | 12:32 |
| janisozaur | om26er, x86 or x64? | 12:32 |
| bart416 | though it'd be logical I guess | 12:33 |
| Caleb_ | I just got jaunty installed with wubi, im gonna try it out then maybe partition my drive to fully install it...Any risks to my windows installation? | 12:33 |
| om26er | janisozaur: x86 | 12:33 |
| jjnw | gauravsrf: did you see the reply I gave to indus? Does that help you? | 12:33 |
| indus | Caleb_: always backup important data before you partition | 12:33 |
| jjnw | indus: gtkvncviewr | 12:33 |
| Caleb_ | Like vista? | 12:33 |
| fotoflo | nope, wasnt in there | 12:34 |
| fotoflo | just gonna roll my own conf | 12:34 |
| bart416 | janisozaur, or tar with options t and z as well if your statement about it being gziped packages | 12:34 |
| nixiepixel | papul_ - compiz (beryl) won't help you theme your system, it adds cool effects such as 3D windows and animations | 12:34 |
| indus | Caleb_: no risks to windows installation if you partition correctly and know what you are doing | 12:34 |
| nixiepixel | papul_ - go to gnome-look.org for themes | 12:34 |
| nixiepixel | Oh, he left :( | 12:34 |
| janisozaur | om26er, on x64 you just copy libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/opera/plugins/ i guess it's still valid with x86 | 12:34 |
| indus | Caleb_: if you are unsure about manual partitioning,you can of course use the auto resize feature on the live cd | 12:34 |
| papul_ | nixiepixel, how do i install the themes> | 12:35 |
| ellas | hellooo | 12:35 |
| Caleb_ | Hmm ok the guide is in a magazine by pros on how so yeah | 12:35 |
| nixiepixel | papul_ - check this out, it will help you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gl-tmGfQrzs | 12:35 |
| papul_ | ellas, hellloooo | 12:35 |
| janisozaur | om26er, find /usr -name 'libflashplayer.so' | 12:35 |
| indus | janisozaur: what? whats valid? | 12:35 |
| om26er | janisozaur: where do i get libflashplayer.so?? | 12:35 |

| Caleb_ | My question..? | 12:42 |
| jrib | maxaga: are you sure it is not packaged? | 12:42 |
| jrib | Caleb_: I answered it | 12:42 |
| indus | nixiepixel: uninstall,if any, will be in the source folder you downloaded or else you need to manually remove all traces | 12:42 |
| gauravsrf | exactly jjnw | 12:42 |
| maxaga | jrib, yes, also i'm using ubuntu server | 12:42 |
| indus | nixiepixel: thats why i never compile from source :) | 12:42 |
| jrib | Caleb_: you can try « sudo make uninstall » but the developers may not have implemented that | 12:42 |
| ctmjr | nixiepixel: look in the dir where you compiled it there should be a make uninstall file, then if there is do make uninstall, make clean, | 12:42 |
| Caleb_ | I didnt see lol ipod touch | 12:42 |
| jrib | maxaga: you need the linux-headers package for your kernel | 12:43 |
| maxaga | jrib, ok, that's what i thought... | 12:43 |
| Caleb_ | does that remove ubuntu? | 12:43 |
| indus | Caleb_: jrib:by the way, auto resize has never worked for me since ubuntu 6.06 | 12:43 |
| indus | always manual | 12:44 |
| nixiepixel | indus, ctmjr - there is a "cmake_uninstal.cmake" file in the source directory. | 12:44 |
| Caleb_ | how come | 12:44 |
| indus | Caleb_: it doesnt like my hard disk | 12:44 |
| nixiepixel | aha! found a README | 12:44 |

| Caleb_ | I have an 320gb hdd... Will it be love at first sight for ubuntu? | 12:47 |
| jjnw | gauravsrf: if you need high security, you may need to setup an ssh tunnel between the 2 systemd | 12:47 |
| duckwars | jrib: because I made my ubuntu computer an afp server, which makes it able to be loaded like a drive is OS X, but the problem is, on the OS X prompt I can only go as high up as my homedirectory in the file hierarchy | 12:47 |
| duckwars | I tried to follow this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MoveMountpointHowto but it didn't really work | 12:48 |
| nixiepixel | indus - heh, the readme has no uninstall instructions :P | 12:48 |
| hateball | ellas: what was your problem with the card? I have the same one, so I might be able to help | 12:48 |
| warai | hi, does opengl mode for WOW 3.1.3 work? I'm getting very low fps | 12:48 |
| ellas | it just aint working | 12:48 |
| ellas | wireless is disabled all the time | 12:48 |
| jrib | duckwars: symlink would be the easy solution... | 12:48 |
| bullgard4 | (After 8.04 > 8.10 > 9.04 dist-upgrade:) dmesg: "ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.2.2kmprg; Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection; Radio Frequency Kill Switch is On: Kill switch must be off for wireless networking to work." How can I switch off the 'Kill switch' using a command-line command? | 12:48 |
| indus | nixiepixel: then you are on your own, i suggest you ask the people where you downloaded it from | 12:48 |
| hateball | ellas: have you made sure you're not booting with the killswitch on? | 12:48 |
| duckwars | what is symlink? | 12:48 |
| indus | nixiepixel: but like i said, you can manually remove stuff | 12:48 |
| ellas | i boot with wireless on | 12:48 |
| nixiepixel | indus - had done that, no one was alive in #kdenlive | 12:49 |
| yoshi__ | hi everyone | 12:49 |
| jrib | duckwars: ln -s TARGET NAME | 12:49 |
| nixiepixel | so I figured I could ask here... 8-) | 12:49 |
| jrib | duckwars: it's like a shortcut. I'm not sure if that works in your scenario, but if it does not, pastebin your fstab with your modifications | 12:49 |
| ProfessorX | Does ./configure only configure the directory you are in or does it configure the whole server? | 12:49 |
| indus | ellas: hateball: ya disable it then,good advice hateball | 12:49 |
| yoshi__ | question: what is the command to get the software installationscreen again after your installed ubuntu | 12:49 |
| indus | hateball: i did read that somewhere | 12:49 |
| ellas | so i should boot with wireless off? | 12:49 |
| indus | ellas: ya try it | 12:50 |
| duckwars | i don't understand ln -s TARGET NAME | 12:50 |
| ellas | ok brb | 12:50 |
| jrib | ProfessorX: it runs ./configure in the current working directory | 12:50 |
| hateball | indus, ellas : no you should definately not boot with it off | 12:50 |
| jrib | duckwars: it's a command | 12:50 |
| jrib | duckwars: TARGET is what you want it to point to and NAME is what you want to call it/its location | 12:50 |
| indus | hateball: i remember recently solving a problem where dmesg gave message to turn off killswitch | 12:50 |
| duckwars | ahh | 12:50 |
| ProfessorX | What does ./configure do exactly, I don't quiet understand it? Please don't say it just configures it. | 12:51 |
| joebodo | it configures it for your machine | 12:51 |
| hateball | indus: well there's a bug with that card, if you're booting with killswitch on... I do wonder if he installed the drivers for it tho | 12:51 |
| ProfessorX | Oh | 12:51 |
| ctmjr | nixiepixel: you can try sudo make uninstall see what happens most of the time (not always) it is there | 12:51 |
| Aijse | Anybody got Compiz working with the Radeon HD 2400 card? Or do I have to wait for the 3D support in the RadeonHD driver? | 12:51 |
| ProfessorX | alright thanks | 12:51 |
| indus | hateball: ubuntu supports that intel chip | 12:51 |
| duckwars | the thing I'm pointing at is what file it should be in? | 12:51 |
| indus | hateball: but nvm,its not that difficult i believe | 12:51 |
| jjnw | yoshi__: try Synaptic Package Manager in Administration | 12:52 |
| duckwars | how do I specifiy the name of the drive i want to move? | 12:52 |
| hateball | indus: Yes, but you still need to grab drivers with jockey | 12:52 |
| duckwars | err.. | 12:52 |
| indus | hateball: hmm jockey is for proprietary drivers,this one isnt | 12:52 |
| indus | hateball: i think | 12:52 |
| janisozaur | Aijse, the driver for 2400 is the same for 2600, which i use and have compiz running | 12:52 |
| gauravsrf | i have installed ubuntu in the windows means to say in a partation of windows now is there any way that i can view files of the linux in the windows ? | 12:52 |
| janisozaur | Aijse, on the amd/ati site | 12:53 |
| nixiepixel | ctmjr - Ok thanks, would there be any reason to recompile it before doing sudo make uninstall? Someone suggested that. | 12:53 |
| indus | hateball: nvm, his dmesg will reveal whats the problem, i have another solution haha :D | 12:53 |
| jjnw | ProfessorX: ./configure sets up the configuration file for the compiler to know how to compile the software for your system | 12:53 |
| indus | nixiepixel: make uninstall is not there many times | 12:53 |
| Aijse | janisozaur: You got Jaunty? | 12:53 |
| janisozaur | Aijse, yes | 12:54 |
| hateball | indus: I have the same chipset, you need a restricted driver | 12:54 |
| hateball | at least used to, I doubt it's all open | 12:54 |
| indus | hateball: oh,ok then my mistake, i missed that | 12:54 |
| Aijse | janisozaur, ok thnx lets try | 12:54 |

| indus | nixiepixel: ok so now what? | 12:58 |

| gauravsrf | what is the way of print screen in the linux to get the copy of screen like in windows ? | 12:58 |
| indus | gauravsrf: press printscreen button what else | 12:59 |
| indus | alt - print scn to get window in focus | 12:59 |
| yoshi__ | jjnw what i mean is i isntalled a base server and now iam at the command prompt but i want that software installations screen again where i can select what server i want to isntall | 12:59 |
| bart416 | gauravsrf, most window managers link print screen to an app with similar features | 12:59 |
| nixiepixel | indus - or something like clean...but I don't know, I have no experience in this area | 12:59 |
| ellas | http://paste.ubuntu.com/208944/ | 12:59 |
| ellas | something like that? | 12:59 |
| gauravsrf | thanks guys | 13:00 |
| nixiepixel | Or maybe I just manually delete the install directory. | 13:00 |
| ctmjr | nixiepixel: make clean | 13:00 |
| jjnw | yoshi__: I see, in that case, I don't think that screen is available, you need to use apt or aptitude | 13:01 |
| yoshi__ | ooh i thought there was a command | 13:01 |

| erto | hi, I have a pptp vpn. I get connected using ubuntu. when I am connected and I browse the web, it won't go through the vpn. what can it be? | 14:06 |

| bnmrrs | Does anybody know when a php 5.3 .deb package will be released? | 14:07 |
| erUSUL | !latest | 14:07 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 14:07 |
| ztzldbn | #ubuntu -cn | 14:07 |
| mbeierl | erto: what routing table does the pptp vpn set up? Some vpns are configured to use the VPN only for certain hosts, and allow non-sensitive data (ie: google) to go unencrypted to make things faster | 14:07 |
| Sakamocchi | how can i use my laptop monitor and USB monitor as one desktop on KDE? Anyone to know how to set? | 14:08 |
| rdz | erto, not that i am an expert, but i think you should set the default gateway accordingly | 14:08 |
| Paddy_NI | Sakamocchi: usb monitor? | 14:08 |
| Paddy_NI | O_o | 14:08 |
| erto | mbeierl: the same vpn rebooting in windows works | 14:08 |
| nperry | !backports | 14:08 |
| ubottu | If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 14:08 |
| erto | so I think it's a misconfiguration of ubuntu | 14:08 |
| Sakamocchi | Oh, it isnt USB. | 14:09 |
| rdz | erto, it's likely that your current gateway is set to an ip of the device, that is connected to the non-vpn network | 14:09 |
| erto | I just added the vpn in the graphic gnome interface | 14:09 |
| ProfessorX | How can I change folder permissions with terminal window? | 14:09 |
| bnmrrs | erUSUL, so not for some time if at all? | 14:09 |
| Paddy_NI | Sakamocchi: if you are a kde user then I would suggest #kubuntu | 14:09 |
| mbeierl | erto: is the VPN server the default gateway when the VPN is established? just because Windows does something does not mean your configuration for the PPTP VPN is the same on Linux.... | 14:09 |
| erUSUL | bnmrrs: something like php will only get security patches there will be no new versions aviable until the next version of ubuntu | 14:09 |
| Sakamocchi | OK. I'll go to #kubuntu. thx | 14:10 |
| ProfessorX | How can I change folder permissions with terminal window? | 14:10 |
| erto | yes, thing is it works automagically for windows | 14:10 |
| erto | but I don't know what the error in ubuntu is | 14:10 |
| mbeierl | erto: did you copy all the settings verbatim from the Windows config to the Linux config? | 14:10 |
| arthur_ | professorX chmod xxxx the file... | 14:10 |
| arthur_ | google chmod | 14:11 |
| erto | well | 14:11 |
| erto | the ip is assigned thorugh dhcp | 14:11 |
| erto | then I created the vpn | 14:11 |
| erto | connected | 14:11 |
| erto | and that's it | 14:11 |
| erto | do I need to do something else? | 14:11 |
| bnmrrs | ah okay. Thanks erUSUL | 14:11 |
| erUSUL | bnmrrs: no problem | 14:11 |
| mbeierl | erto: there are "advanced" settings which can change the routing. lemme check mine again and see what the relevant ones might be | 14:11 |

| dAnon | ashvala I reinstalled ubuntu, and used textual mode of envyng, 100% success | 14:48 |
| dAnon | ashvala everything other failed :( | 14:48 |
| hiep | oldude57, what? my computer name??? | 14:48 |
| r3dux | envyng only takes you up to nvidia 180 atm | 14:48 |
| oldude67 | hiep: hp, dell, compaq? | 14:48 |
| hiep | oldude57, What's ur ideal | 14:48 |
| ashvala | dAnon, I have a lot of important data, my ubuntu is on a 1 TB HDD, making it hard to back up. | 14:48 |
| te_ | ProfessorX: log out and back in as the original user and try it. | 14:48 |
| hiep | oldude57, assus | 14:49 |
| dAnon | r3dux if I had 100% sure way to upgrade to higher drivers I would already upgrade | 14:49 |
| oldude67 | my ideal is two blondes a hot tub and lots of soap | 14:49 |
| r3dux | I HAVE A LOT OF IMPORTANT DATA says ashvala. Now we know. | 14:49 |
| hiep | oldude57, pcs, main assus | 14:49 |

| r3dux | dAnon, just grab the driver from nvidia, sudo gdm stop, then install... | 14:49 |
| lstarnes | ProfessorX: when packages are installed, they are installed for every user | 14:49 |
| hiep | oldudle67,yes | 14:50 |
| oldude67 | ty that is what the wanted to know | 14:50 |
| te_ | ProfessorX: It does not matter which user installs the application, they will all have access to it. | 14:50 |
| hiep | oldudle67, :) | 14:50 |

| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 14:50 |
| ProfessorX | te_: Oh ok, then I have php-myadmin install since I did apt-get install php-myadmin as root user | 14:50 |
| dAnon | r3dux I hope it will not get me into low graphics mode as it used to | 14:50 |
| ProfessorX | te_: how do I access phpmyadmin now? | 14:50 |
| tavi | i search for someone to help me to use bobot++ | 14:50 |
| lstarnes | ProfessorX: http://localhost/phpmyadmin | 14:50 |
| hiep | oldudle67 | 14:51 |
| hiep | oldudle67,yes onboard | 14:51 |
| lstarnes | ProfessorX: it's web-based so it has to be accessed through a browser, but by default it only works for your local machine | 14:51 |
| r3dux | dAnon, you need to Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to tty1, or any text console, then kill X (sudo gdm stop), then install the new Nvidia | 14:51 |
| dAnon | Indus the problem is 100% solved :) envyng in textual mode worked successfully | 14:51 |
| saliak | anyone familiar with installing cpan modules? | 14:51 |
| mickster04 | hiep what program are u using to chat | 14:52 |
| dAnon | r3dux then sudo gdm start? reboot? | 14:52 |
| ProfessorX | lstarnes: I tried that and It says "The requested URL /phpmyadmin was not found on this server." | 14:52 |
| hiep | oldule67, nvidia video onboard? yes | 14:52 |
| xdck | hiep, you have power supply broken | 14:52 |
| r3dux | dAnon - once you've installed it you're forced to reboot, so it's a moot point | 14:52 |
| mickster04 | xdck, no he doesnt | 14:52 |

| dAnon | redux do I? | 14:53 |

| hiep | mickster04, pidgin of me is error | 14:53 |
| lstarnes | ProfessorX: for phpmyadmin to appear, you might need to restart apache | 14:53 |
| nathan406 | Can someone help me fix my sound on my Compaq presario 2700 | 14:54 |
| mickster04 | like hie+[tab] writes hiep, | 14:54 |

| saliak | Hi, i'm trying to get RT up and running and based on my apache error log (http://pastebin.com/d3694cd27), I think i'm missing a CPAN module (QuickDelete). So, I started cpan and did "install RT::Extension::QuickDelete" (it downloaded, compiled andinstalled it), and i still get the error. I"m guessing the @INC path might not be correct? Anyone familiar with RT or how I might correct this? | 14:55 |
| xdck | ProfessorX, /etc/initd/apache2 restart | 14:55 |
| oldude67 | laters | 14:55 |
| ProfessorX | When I do that command it says "myusername is not in the sudoers file" | 14:56 |

| oldude67 | lol | 14:56 |

| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 14:56 |

| andrewc | lol | 16:55 |
| homy | andrewc: what was your problem with installing skype? | 16:55 |
| ElPato | Thesilentwarrior: netbooks are like laptops, but smaller and less powerful | 16:55 |
| leagris | Yay, pidgin alone brought an i7 down to the knee and segfaulted after opening an MSN dialog. An amaising performance for a simple chat program ^^ | 16:55 |
| andrewc | doesn't allow me to sign up | 16:55 |
| erto | mbeierl: oh yea | 16:56 |
| homy | andrewc did you install the skype app fine in ubuntu? | 16:56 |
| andrewc | font issue i gusse | 16:56 |
| erto | mbeierl: thanks. I will try that today | 16:56 |
| andrewc | yes | 16:56 |
| homy | andrewc did you install it in wine? | 16:56 |
| andrewc | but font would not display correctly inside of app in the text input feilds | 16:56 |
| andrewc | no no | 16:56 |
| Thesilentwarrior | ElPato: so, they are like normal pcs, x32 - x64 bits, etc? | 16:56 |
| acp_ | Thesilentwarrior: is an official derivative of Ubuntu using the Xfce desktop environment. It is intended for users with less-powerful computers, or those that require a highly efficient desktop environment on faster systems | 16:56 |
| krishmish | hi all...skype can be installed in ubuntu | 16:56 |
| homy | krishmish: !skype | 16:57 |
| homy | !skipe | krishmish | 16:57 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about skipe | 16:57 |
| andrewc | ye sbut doesn't work after install | 16:57 |
| homy | !skype | krishmish | 16:57 |
| ubottu | krishmish: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 16:57 |
| andrewc | skype | 16:57 |
| andrewc | u think its longer method for installl? | 16:57 |
| krishmish | homy: yeah...is there an issue??? | 16:57 |
| andrewc | ok forget it | 16:57 |
| homy | krishmish: not that I'm aware of. But I don't use it myself | 16:58 |
| mbeierl | erto: a route definition is like so: there is a network range specified (like 192.168.1.0/24, or 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0, which means only pay attention to the first 3 numbers and match any 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255) and then the gateway to use (like 192.168.1.1) which means all 192.168.1.1-255 requests will go to 192.168.1.1 for processing | 16:58 |
| andrewc | is there ? on sykpe yes | 16:58 |
| andrewc | maybe install it with ubuntu tweak app? | 16:58 |
| bazhang | andrewc, no | 16:58 |
| ElPato | Thesilentwarrior: 32 bits Intel Atom processors, normally. Xubuntu may be easier to setup, though | 16:58 |
| krishmish | homy: okay | 16:58 |
| mbeierl | erto: you are looking for a route that is something like 0.0.0.0 gateway X.X.X.X where X.X.X.X is going to be on the server side of the VPN. This means send ALL traffic to the VPN gateway | 16:58 |
| bobzillion | please recommend sotware to help recover data from an SD drive. | 16:59 |
| andrewc | lol i love ubuntu tweak app alot | 16:59 |
| andrewc | no? | 16:59 |
| Thesilentwarrior | ElPato: thx man, will check that out | 16:59 |
| homy | andrewc: did you install it via medibuntu? | 16:59 |
| bazhang | andrewc, this is NOT the chat channel #ubuntu-offtopic for that. | 16:59 |
| homy | krishmish: I recomend installing it via medibuntu. | 16:59 |
| ElPato | I'm having some trouble bridging 2 networks. Can anyone help? Thanks http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1203376 | 16:59 |

| andrewc | lol | 17:00 |
| Zopiac | Can anyone help me? Skype suddenly stops outputting audio for some reason. | 17:00 |
| krishmish | homy: okay yes ur right | 17:00 |
| homy | krishmish: to install it, just paste "sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/jaunty.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list" in a terminal and then do the command "sudo apt-get install skype" | 17:01 |
| erto | mbeierl: thanks, your knowledge is really appreciated | 17:01 |

| joebodo | Zopiac i run it from command line and see constant overrun messages - i think at some point this causes it to die | 17:02 |
| homy | krishmish: medibuntu is better because skype only supports up to ubuntu 8.04 | 17:03 |
| bobzillion | mbeierl, thanks. what partition type should I indicate? | 17:03 |
| homy | krishmish: to install it, just paste "sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/jaunty.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list" in a terminal and then do the command "sudo apt-get install skype" | 17:03 |

| queso | if lsusb doesn't give any text after the ID range, does that mean the device isn't connected properly? | 17:30 |
| MrPiracy | lwells, anyway, i am trying EnvyNG now ... it seems to be installed, let me reboot | 17:30 |
| dewdude | i gave you two options | 17:30 |
| dewdude | which one is it | 17:30 |
| MrPiracy | lwells, brb | 17:30 |
| maria | th0r...thanks. Im over my head. I cant decipher the error msg | 17:30 |

| maria | is there a google earth ubuntu channel? | 17:31 |
| malaysia | who can help me? | 17:31 |
| cocoa117 | dewdude, but in reality always two users try to access same file, and they belong to two different group | 17:31 |
| ikonia | !googleearth | 17:31 |
| ubottu | Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html - A package for Ubuntu is available in the !Medibuntu repository | 17:31 |
| dewdude | well, if you've got two users from different groups, that's easy | 17:32 |
| dewdude | just add the users to a new group and give that group access | 17:32 |
| dewdude | i'm not 100% on how to specify multiple groups | 17:32 |
| Domino93 | irc.genius.net | 17:32 |
| joebodo | dewdude or give other access to the file | 17:32 |
| * dewdude shrugs | 17:32 | |
| dewdude | there's a bunch of different ways you can do it | 17:32 |
| cocoa117 | dewdude, i can only find ACL as easiest | 17:33 |
| joebodo | cocoa117 i found it easier to add people to multiple groups by just editing the group file itself | 17:33 |
| cocoa117 | dewdude, can u find more and better then ACL? | 17:33 |
| dewdude | ACL? | 17:33 |
| * dewdude blinks | 17:34 | |
| dewdude | i'm not really all that great with ubuntu..i can limp along and help people with stuff i've encountered | 17:34 |
| cocoa117 | joebodo, imaging u have 20-30 people in each group | 17:34 |
| tavi | what's this http://paste.ubuntu.com/209116/? | 17:34 |
| cocoa117 | dewdude, sure, what's your suggestion | 17:34 |
| joebodo | cocoa117 if you need to manage groups of people - it's what groups were built for | 17:34 |

| superkiwi | Hello, i'm on ubuntu remix 9.04 and I am wondering about if this version has the same programs available in the repos as the ordinary ubuntu. The reason I ask this is because I can't find libaudio2, or libqt-gui with apt-get install. How do I install these on the netbook? | 17:35 |
| tavi | http://paste.ubuntu.com/209116/ | 17:35 |
| cocoa117 | joebodo, the problem is i need to allow both group to access same file, and adding 50 people to one new group seems bit hard to maintain | 17:35 |
| cocoa117 | even for small company like us | 17:36 |
| dewdude | http://paste.ubuntu.com/209119/ <-anyone have any idea how to fix it? | 17:36 |
| joebodo | cocoa117 why not just give the file other access - like 777 | 17:36 |
| cocoa117 | joebodo, it's commerical thing, i can't | 17:37 |

| vise | dewdude: hour? omg.. alright... do people scroll up that much? :) | 17:42 |
| dewdude | no, but if no one answered the first time, it's likely no one in here ATM knows | 17:43 |
| dewdude | i don't see why one would disable the panel anyway | 17:43 |
| bobzillion | th0r, yes, I can see some of the files in file manager (dolphin) but others are missing - thus the need for recovery. the drive still counts that space as in-use. | 17:43 |

| mbeierl | note to all: this is why it is better to ask questions in the open rather than pm: so others can ensure the quality of the responses :) | 17:47 |
| th0r | rayno_b: they should be called VirtualBox and appear in the process list (opena terminal and type 'ps ax | grep Virtual') | 17:47 |
| mbeierl | julio: did you try disabling plugins to see if they're the cause of the crash? | 17:47 |

| maginot | joebodo, if the file was a link it will return which name? | 17:54 |
| th0r | bobzillion: I am not familiar with photorec, but that sounds weird. In linux a mountpoint is just another directory (folder) as far as the software is concerned. | 17:55 |

| tgreagin | Great! I have a live usb installation that I am using on my hp notebook. Enjoying it ,but no sound audible on any application. I've used laptop volume control to set to max and speaker icon in topbar to max. I'm sure I'm overlooking something stupid. | 18:07 |
| mickster04 | dayo, updates dont do it? | 18:07 |
| dayo | dataflow: the format is y.MM | 18:07 |
| mickster04 | tgreagin, i presume its ubuntu nbr? 9.04 | 18:07 |
| dayo | mickster04: i'm debating whether to upgrade or start a fresh install | 18:07 |
| dewdude | tgreagin: possible the sound drivers aren't installed? | 18:07 |
| ProfessorX | How do I switch to the root user through the terminal window? | 18:07 |
| boss_mc | dayo: I did a standard upgrade | 18:07 |
| tgreagin | mickster04: yes 9.04 | 18:08 |
| dataflow | how about linux-2.6.29.3? | 18:08 |
| mickster04 | dayo, well depends what u have installed/how much data u have | 18:08 |
| queso_ | I did a modprobe after trying to install a new wireless usb driver and my computer froze. now I turn it on and it freezes partway into the ubuntu boot screen. any ideas? | 18:08 |
| mickster04 | tgreagin, have you check the compatability of your laptop in the site? | 18:08 |
| Apollo2366 | th0r: changed the driver to the simplified version... but it's still blank... | 18:08 |
| ProfessorX | How do I switch to the root user through the terminal window? | 18:08 |
| boss_mc | dayo: worked fine except I'd accidentally removed the mesa graphics drivers... | 18:08 |
| dayo | boss_mc: is it possible to do that with CD? | 18:08 |
| tgreagin | Dewdude: how check if drivers installed? | 18:08 |
| MrPiracy | lwells, nice, it worked! but how do i know now if i am using the NVDIA drivers? | 18:08 |
| boss_mc | dayo: but that was my fault | 18:08 |
| queso_ | (funny, there went my connection on the linux box! lol) | 18:08 |
| boss_mc | dayo: you need the alternative CD for that | 18:08 |

| dayo | boss_mc: hmm | 18:09 |
| lwells | MrPiracy: go to settings and display | 18:09 |

| th0r | Apollo2366: if there isn't a specific driver for your printer than it might take a few tries to find one that works. Have you googled the model number to see if anyone else has installed it in linux? | 18:09 |
| mickster04 | dayo, at least with a fresh you have it all new, and it may be easier to install drivers etc that u require as you may have to use differen t ones etc. but if u have stuff that u wana keep then try update | 18:09 |
| ProfessorX | How do I switch to the root user through the terminal window? | 18:09 |

| lwells | MrPiracy: when you go to display preferences, answer yes to the next question and it brings you to a Nvidia screen | 18:10 |
| mickster04 | dayo, it shouldnt be affected? | 18:10 |
| dayo | mickster04: i think i'll go with a fresh install. i had started installing a 2-node cluster on vbox, but i wasn't done yet | 18:10 |
| tgreagin | Mickster04: How do i check laptop compatability. I think you may have answered question. | 18:10 |
| MrPiracy | lwells, yes, it did .... i cannot run PREF/DISPLAY ... just NVIDIA settings | 18:10 |
| serge | =) | 18:10 |
| MrPiracy | lwells, i assume it means i'm using NVIDIA | 18:10 |
| lwells | MrPiracy: ys | 18:11 |

| mbeierl | Dulak: I have 40 users... I don't want to have to log in as each and every user to perform that action | 18:29 |
| mickster04 | tgreagin, you have dual boot then? | 18:29 |

| exodus_ms | gbear14275, yeah, restart ff and see if that helps | 18:31 |
| coz_ | joebodo, mm I tried that so far a no go | 18:31 |
| usser | mbeierl, is the script the same for all users? | 18:31 |
| joebodo | mbeierl i believe you can modify /etc/profile | 18:31 |

| exodus_ms | gbear14275, do you have /opt/java/64/jre1.6.0_14/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so | 18:32 |
| mickster04 | tgreagin, right, well humm....i have never ran from usb fully....i always dual boot... | 18:33 |
| mbeierl | I guess the question is - how does gnome-session know to start the programs that it does by default? How can a sysadmin tap into that process? | 18:33 |
| usser | mbeierl, well you should have thought of it when imaging the computers. startup applications are stored in a file for gnome | 18:33 |
| mickster04 | tgreagin, does it save settings | 18:33 |
| deco | i forgot the name of the site that lets you download ubuntu packages via the browser | 18:33 |
| exodus_ms | deco, if you want to install some applications you can use Synaptic or apt at the command line | 18:33 |

| joebodo | mbeierl have you tried man gnome-session | 18:33 |
| joebodo | mbeierl it shows options for startup | 18:34 |
| gbear14275 | exodus_ms: you rock!... I had that plugin but it was disabled... I didn't recognize it at all so didn't enable it. Didn't realize it was java. I turned it on and now have a little dancing javaman on the http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml site. THANKS! | 18:34 |
| mbeierl | joebodo: yep. but I don't know how to tap into them | 18:34 |
| tgreagin | Yes it saves settings! writes every thing by default to USB drive | 18:34 |
| deco | Ursinha: that's it! thank you very much | 18:34 |
| th0r | mbeierl: apparently gnome uses ~/.gnomerc. If you can find the template (/etc/gnomerc?) you could add the script to that | 18:34 |
| senseibuntu | I just installed 9.04 on my desktop which already has vista on it, and I think I told grub to overwrite my windows MBR >.> | 18:34 |

| joebodo | mbeierl it has --autostart=DIR - starts all applications defined in DIR | 18:34 |
| exodus_ms | gbear14275, cool, no problem, glad its working | 18:34 |
| tgreagin | Mickster04: writes every thing by default to usb drive and saves settings and upgrades. | 18:34 |
| senseibuntu | so now, if i choose vista from grub, then i get "BOOTMGR is missing, press ctrl+alt+del to reboot" | 18:35 |
| senseibuntu | anyone know how i can correct this? | 18:35 |

| MrPiracy | does anyone here happen to know how to get grub to boot XP from an extended partition? | 18:41 |
| Dulak | mbeierl: Xsession.d does a source not an exec, so if you are gonna add a file or chagne one, be sure you use exec to execute your script, otherwise it won't get run | 18:41 |
| exodus_ms | Guest63407, it looks like that printer might use the z55 driver, try intalling it, unpluging the printer and pluging it back in | 18:41 |
| th0r | rom1v: ls -lh | 18:41 |
| mbeierl | joebodo: thanks... I think? I'd rather put a script into the Xsession.d than modify the gnome-session startup procedure | 18:41 |
| joebodo | mbeierl which gnome-wm shows the location of the script | 18:41 |

| aaronvarghese | 04 | 19:39 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | marcel_: You can usually change user with the su command. | 19:39 |
| th0r | JediMaster: changing partitions on a remote server is just asking for trouble. It would be less painful to squat over the campfire | 19:39 |
| aaronvarghese | please teach me to vcn | 19:39 |
| musikgoat|main | marcel_: have you tried startx | 19:40 |
| Flannel | JediMaster: You can't resize a live partition (unless you're using LVM). An alternative (although probably not viable now, but in the future?) would be to have a second small install that you can boot to, to resize the primary one. | 19:40 |

| mickster04 | newser, if u google stuff yourself, in theory you understand more about what ur doing... | 19:46 |

| mickster04 | kiefer, gutsy wont run exe' | 19:46 |
| Flannel | Roland: Please mind the language, thanks. | 19:46 |
| newser | mickster04, well, actually my problem is that I have a NAS hdd, can I connect it as well using the lan network and use internet with the wireless card? | 19:47 |
| attorianzo | thanx to usser and sveinse :) | 19:47 |
| ProfessorX | Roland: I can still log in if I click ok on the error window. And the error pops up when I log into an account that is not root. | 19:47 |
| mickster04 | newser, hmm,, that again is a seperate issue... if you take them one at a time, then its easier to work thru them... | 19:47 |

| Flannel | kiefer: Did you verify the CD using the verification option on the boot menu? | 19:47 |
| newser | I was thinking on linking the two computers, connect to the hdd using the wireless card on windows, connect ubuntu and win via ethernet, and connect to internet with ubuntu using wireless | 19:47 |

| usser | newser, its eth0 usually | 19:58 |
| th0r | nexsja: you want to share files or actually use one desktop from the other computer? | 19:59 |
| nexsja | share files, th0r | 19:59 |
| th0r | nexsja: I think folder sharing is built into gnome, is that what you are using? | 19:59 |
| usser | newser, got it? | 19:59 |
| newser | usser, yeah | 20:00 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: for two computers simply connecting to a hub, they need to be given IP addresses | 20:00 |
| usser | newser, cool you should be at the last step, click save and firewall should start | 20:00 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: so they can talk to each other | 20:00 |
| nexsja | hm, i didn't had windows sharing (or smtn) installed | 20:00 |
| nexsja | musikgoat|main they have their own IP addresses | 20:00 |
| coleys | nexsja: Samba? | 20:00 |
| usser | newser, now for a more involved setup you'd need to install and configure dhcp server on this machine | 20:00 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: ok | 20:00 |
| nexsja | coleys the main problem, imo, is that they just don't see each other in any way :/ | 20:01 |
| usser | newser, for now we'll use static ips for all machines just to make sure everything works | 20:01 |
| newser | usser, do I need to click on IP address is assigned via DHCP? | 20:01 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: what are their ip's? | 20:01 |
| usser | newser, no you dont have dhcp server | 20:01 |
| th0r | nexsja: I think this might be what you need http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Sharing_Ubuntu_Linux_Folders_with_Remote_Windows_Systems | 20:01 |
| newser | usser, ok | 20:01 |
| coleys | nexsja: You use firewall on windows pc? | 20:01 |
| the_dark_warrio | I have enabled a PPA for the PiTiVi app and now my sound doesn't work >.< I want to revert to the way it was, but disabling it won't reinstall my old packages. Is there a way to reinstall the default gstream packages? | 20:01 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: can you ping one from the other and vice versa? | 20:01 |
| usser | newser, once everything done click save and it'll start the firewall, actually it might complain that eth0 is not ready | 20:01 |
| nexsja | musikgoat|main through ip's i think i can | 20:01 |
| nexsja | coleys mm, yes, though i've disabled it and no results | 20:02 |
| newser | usser, ok | 20:02 |
| usser | newser, do sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces | 20:02 |
| usser | newser, put something like that in it http://pastebin.com/f56c4bec2 | 20:02 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: you may want to also ensure they are in the same workgroup | 20:02 |
| usser | newser, starting with auto eth0 | 20:02 |
| nexsja | how do i setup a workgroup on ubuntu? | 20:02 |
| usser | newser, just copy it | 20:02 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: helps with auto finding | 20:02 |
| coleys | nexsja: Hm... What about windows firewall? | 20:03 |
| usser | newser, did it? | 20:03 |
| nexsja | coleys disabled, of course | 20:03 |
| AssociateX | how do you search with apt-get? | 20:04 |

| JStullick | unjustice: Yes you are using a DVD in a CD drive? | 20:16 |

| unjustice | JStullick: I don't think so, I go tboth from ubuntu, and I can read the disc after startup, just not autorun on boot | 20:17 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: then restart xp and see if it shows up | 20:17 |
| nexsja | mm okay | 20:17 |
| coventry | Given a pin in /etc/apt/preferences, is there a way to tell apt to figure out all of the packages it needs to pull in from a more recent release in order to satisfy an install request? Just "apt-get install -t jaunty python-matplotlib" results in complaints of unmet dependencies, and including those dependencies in the install request results in a burgeoning tree of such complaints. | 20:17 |
| unjustice | JStullick: what am I looking for in the md5 | 20:17 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: you may need to re-enable the computer browser service, but xp should allow ubuntu to be the controller of the visibility | 20:18 |
| JStullick | unjustice: To see if the md5 of your download is the same as the md5 of the file on the server. | 20:18 |

| gh0stn0te | <unjustice> JStullick: I don't think so, I go tboth from ubuntu, and I can read the disc after startup, just not autorun on boot <--- maybe u have 2 change the boot order on the bios, put the dvdrom at the first place | 20:18 |
| unjustice | JStullick: where is the server md5 located so that I can compare? | 20:18 |
| usser | newser, you still here? | 20:18 |

| ProfessorX | coleys: still get Failed to intialize HAL! but I'm not worry about that anymore. Since I can close the window and still log on. | 20:20 |
| gh0stn0te | zack the issue was resolvable by adding more resolutions into the X11 config file (but i dont if ubuntu works in the same way) | 20:20 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: try restarting that service now | 20:20 |
| newser | usser, not related to what we are doing, but Im workig as fast as i can | 20:20 |

| JStullick | odinsbane: Does the computer give an error message? | 20:21 |

| musikgoat|main | jerkman: try #remote-exploit :) | 20:21 |
| ProfessorX | coleys: it activates when I'm idle supposedly. | 20:21 |
| odinsbane | JStullick: nothing aparent | 20:21 |
| zack | gh0stn0te oh really? so.. if i wanted to add in more resolutions.. i would have to add in a metamodes option under display section and manually type in resolutions? currently on my driver it supports up to 1024x768 even under auto | 20:21 |
| JStullick | unjustice: So you can browse the disk files from a working computer but when you attempt to boot off the disk nothing happens. | 20:21 |
| odinsbane | JStullick: is there a log or such that I should check? | 20:22 |
| coleys | ProfessorX: Did you autologin? | 20:22 |
| ProfessorX | coleys: and when I go back to the desktop it starts typing random letters because it turns on x autotype. | 20:22 |
| JStullick | odinsbane: syslog. | 20:22 |
| nexsja | musikgoat|main: still nothing :< | 20:22 |
| JStullick | odinsbane: /var/log | 20:22 |
| Flannel | coventry: Alright, now, lets take a look at: apt-cache policy python-matplotlib libgtk2.0-0 libpango1.0-0 (pastebin the output of that) | 20:22 |
| coleys | ProfessorX: Now disable automatic login, and reboot again. +p | 20:22 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: :( sorry, thats the steps that usually fix it when i had xp | 20:22 |
| ProfessorX | coleys: I'm using VNC so it didn't. I don't care about that error though. I have another error the autotype one. | 20:22 |
| JStullick | odinsbane: It will be a file in that directory. | 20:22 |

It crashed when i moved one tab to fav line so this would be favorited in that line.. and tab is always following mouse but when this crash occurs then it stops following mouse but also.. mouse i locked so i cant do anything with computer.. nothing works.. even i cant restart computer.. what to do now? how to gai | 20:22 |
| JStullick | unjustice: Can you boot off the disk in any other computer? | 20:23 |
| unjustice | also, I tried to verify the md5 and it said that it failed | 20:23 |
| unjustice | let me check | 20:23 |
| azharcs | unjustice: Make sure you burnt the disk as an iso rather than a data disk. Data Disk can boot. | 20:24 |
| coventry | http://pastebin.com/m178c6c77 | 20:24 |
| newser | usser, ok, im done now | 20:24 |
| guntbert | kangarooo: to reboot type sudo reboot | 20:24 |
| usser | newser, right ifdown ifup part done? | 20:24 |
| newser | usser, sorry for making you wait | 20:24 |
| jjnw | kangarooo: to restart, init 6 but a bug report would also help if possible | 20:24 |
| SJ2000 | gh0stn0te: Found the problem, idiot sender encrypted an *empty* file and open-with couldn't handle it | 20:24 |
| newser | usser, yes | 20:24 |
| Scunizi | azharcs: unjustice data disk's "can't" boot.. just a correction. | 20:24 |
| JStullick | a | 20:24 |
| usser | newser, can you pastebin the output of ifconfig command? | 20:25 |
| Flannel | coventry: Alright, I imagine installing those brings in more depends, etc. Before we get into that, may I ask why you don't just upgrade to Jaunty from Hardy? | 20:25 |
| ProfessorX | Why does x autotype activate? | 20:25 |
| azharcs | Scunizi : Exactly, it was a typo | 20:25 |
| Flannel | coventry: Well, Hardy to Intrepid to Jaunty | 20:25 |
| unjustice | yeah, I know that...this is extremely frustrating. I cannot get anyy of them to boot | 20:25 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: can you at least reach the xp computer by trying in nautilus smb://ip.of.xp.computer/ | 20:25 |
| unjustice | as iso image burns | 20:25 |
| gh0stn0te | <SJ2000> gh0stn0te: Found the problem, idiot sender encrypted an *empty* file and open-with couldn't handle it <--- :) | 20:25 |
| nexsja | musikgoat|main: mmm i'll try | 20:25 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: or smb://nameofxp/ | 20:25 |
| ProfessorX | Why does x autotype activate? I'm ussing puTTy as my connection terminal. | 20:25 |
| coventry | Updating my laptop broke it, and it took a day to reinstall. I can't afford the risk at the moment. | 20:25 |
| coventry | (Big meeting coming up.) | 20:25 |
| newser | usser, im on it | 20:26 |
| Flannel | coventry: And why do you need the new matplot? | 20:26 |
| unjustice | so, how can I get a cd that will actually run? | 20:26 |
| jjnw | kangarooo: are you happy at the cmd line? | 20:26 |
| zack | isnt there anyway i can force my display to fit to screen under smaller resolutions? i mean like 1440x... blah blah blah is gonna be really tiny.. | 20:26 |
| kangarooo | jjnw so i quit now irssi then write init 6 and then it will restart? no im not happy at cmd line :) thx for asking | 20:26 |
| mneptok | unjustice: use a torrent. the downloads are far more reliable (they are checksummed). | 20:26 |
| gh0stn0te | guys where is the xorg.conf config file under ubuntu? /usr/lib/xorg/ ?? | 20:27 |
| jjnw | kanggarooo: you could just kill the ff process | 20:27 |
| gh0stn0te | ubuntu jaunty naturally | 20:27 |
| musikgoat|main | zack: using blah blah blah in your message doesn't help | 20:27 |
| newser | usser, http://pastebin.com/d3acf79d1 | 20:27 |
| zack | ghostnote, xorg.conf is under /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 20:27 |
| coleys | ProfessorX: sudo apt-get remove xautotype | 20:27 |
| nexsja | musikgoat|main: guess not :( | 20:27 |
| Flannel | coventry: Since, what you're doing is more likely to cause more problems than upgrading. Doesn't look like it'd backport easily either. | 20:27 |
| usser | newser, ok which one is wireless there, eth0 or eth1? | 20:27 |
| ProfessorX | This is what it says | 20:27 |
| ProfessorX | 03/07/2009 23:24:33 idle keyboard: turning X autorepeat back on. | 20:27 |
| zero_mass | How does one disable NetworkManager from managing eth0? | 20:27 |
| zack | musik, blahblahblah was just an example cause i dont know what the second number of 1440 would be.. someone is aldready addressing my issue but i was giving more info | 20:27 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: hmm, that is odd, do you have any shared folders on the ubuntu box? | 20:27 |
| === manuelt15 is now known as manunknown | ||
| newser | usser, eth1 | 20:28 |
| coventry | You're making it sound like it's a lot of work. If so, I can live without it. The list of dependencies definitely goes several layers deeper. I tried adding them to the command line to see if I'd get lucky. I take it you don't know of a way to recursively track the dependencies in this situation? | 20:28 |
| azharcs | unjustice: Download the iso from Ubuntu.com and burn it using this details. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 20:28 |
| musikgoat|main | zack: oh | 20:28 |
| nexsja | yup | 20:28 |
| usser | newser, and you gave eth0 192.168.2.4 address in interfaces file? | 20:28 |
| newser | usser, I switched to other computer, so I can read you | 20:28 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: are you sure about the ip's of each box? | 20:28 |
| coventry | Oh, just read your latest response. OK, I'll punt. Thanks a lot for your help. | 20:28 |
| nexsja | yes | 20:28 |
| usser | newser, can you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces just to make sure | 20:29 |
| nexsja | i'll try again | 20:29 |
| jjnw | kanga: sudo init 6 will reboot | 20:29 |
| zero_mass | I don't particularly want to disable NetworkManager completely, I just don't want it to manage eth0 | 20:29 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: and you said pings work? | 20:29 |
| Flannel | coventry: The problem is that one (and likely both) of those dependencies it complains about are used by a *lot* of things, libgtk is used by basically your entire GUI, and I'm not sure how well it maintains backwards compatability. | 20:29 |
| nexsja | yes, ping works | 20:29 |
| nexsja | i can ping my win box from my ubuntu box | 20:29 |
| Scunizi | How do I figure out the time difference between a remote server and my local machine? I'm trying to setup filezilla so I can tell it to automatically upload all newer files based on the time stamp. Unfortunately I can't do it with file size. | 20:30 |
| newser | usser, ok, that was assigned by the router, I think, but let me paste the stuff | 20:30 |
| coventry | Well, not my gui, since I use standalone sawfish, but I take your point. OK, thanks. | 20:30 |
| nexsja | hm | 20:30 |
| nexsja | i've had win firewall enabled | 20:30 |
| nexsja | smb://winboxip worked | 20:30 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: good | 20:30 |
| nexsja | locally still doesn't though :< | 20:31 |
| zack | im going to try to add in more display modes.. if it doesnt work ill be back.. thanks for the suggestion gh0stn0te | 20:31 |
| kangarooo | jjnw: so i write kill firefox ? | 20:31 |
| musikgoat|main | Scunizi: would it be better to just sync the two servers via ntp? | 20:31 |
| Flannel | coventry: I'm more than willing to walk you through it if you'd like, I just can't guarantee a happy system afterwards | 20:31 |
| newser | usser, http://pastebin.com/d50068eec9 | 20:31 |
| jjnw | kanga: ps -aux | 20:31 |
| musikgoat|main | nexsja: what do you mean, as it they are not visible in "network" | 20:31 |
| usser | newser, your pastebin is empty | 20:31 |
| jjnw | that will list all processes | 20:31 |
| unjustice | it matches | 20:31 |
| unjustice | the hash | 20:31 |
| gh0stn0te | <zack> im going to try to add in more display modes.. if it doesnt work ill be back.. thanks for the suggestion gh0stn0te <--- adding more display modes is the only thing that comes at my mind right now | 20:31 |
| newser | sorry, let me try again | 20:31 |
| coventry | If it's riskier to do that than to upgrade, I'll defer it for now. If you could point me at the relevant commands for that kind of recursive dependency tracking in this context, that'd be educational, though. | 20:32 |
| nexsja | musikgoat|main: yes | 20:32 |
| Scunizi | musikgoat|main: that would work but I'm trying to set up a cross platform solution up for someone on WinXX that is technically challenged. | 20:32 |

| kangarooo | well its a programm in command line .. yeah only quitting will open command line again | 20:34 |
| zero_mass | The reason I want to disable NetworkManager from managing eth0 is because it seems to mess up the routing when my internet connection drops (which happens often in South Africa) | 20:34 |

| zack | from what i understand tho nvidia is supposed to be easier than ati for linux | 20:44 |
| unjustice | zack: depends on which card you have | 20:44 |
| gh0stn0te | <zack> from what i understand tho nvidia is supposed to be easier than ati for linux <--- yeah but maybe they doesnt use the xorg.conf resolutions list | 20:45 |

| Samper | unjustice... the bios boots to CDROM first? | 20:46 |

| gh0stn0te | <Scunizi> gh0stn0te: nvidia-xconfig allows you to write to xorg <--- im asking myself why if zack add more resolutions in the xorg.conf, these resolutions are not usable nor viewable by the nvidia driver... | 20:47 |
| g3nto0 | oh damned sorry | 20:47 |
| newser | usser, yes :) | 20:47 |
| g3nto0 | hi 2gether | 20:47 |
| unjustice | Samper: it is homemade, not a Dell. BIOS is hard to get to but I can get to it | 20:47 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: grep | 20:47 |
| unjustice | Samper: GRUB never loads on boot | 20:47 |
| unjustice | zack: that is your problem | 20:47 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: you can grep recursively through an area to find a string | 20:47 |
| unjustice | zack: nividia proprietary drivers are a nightmare | 20:48 |
| zack | so im supposed to use the ubuntu repo driver? | 20:48 |
| usser | newser, cool now connect the computer to the switch/ router with a ethernet cable, dont use the WAN or Internet port on the router, connect it as a regular computer | 20:48 |
| sebsebseb | zack: yes ideally | 20:48 |
| unjustice | zack: what type of card is it | 20:48 |
| Scunizi | unjustice: some motherboards and bios's make you hit F2 or something on boot to choose what you want to boot. This is a notorious thing for Dell which is why I asked.. even with the cdrom in 1st postition Dell want everyone to use that utility | 20:48 |
| unjustice | zack: don't say nvidida | 20:48 |
| azharcs | unjustice: Sorry I don't know. If the CD is not booting in any other computer, then its the prob with the CD. Try booting any other CD (even Windows), If it doesn't boot then it might be a prob with the CD/DVD drive. Try some other Drive to see if it works. | 20:48 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: try grep -r -H "string literal" /path/to/search | 20:48 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, do I use single or double quote to wrap my search string? | 20:48 |
| zack | its an EVGA Geforce 8600GT card but lspci says its nvidia, and unjustice im sorry, im using a new keyboard my fingers slip occasionally | 20:48 |
| g3nto0 | or do some better things with the win.cd | 20:49 |
| Samper | unjustice... well the first step would be to get into the BIOS and change the boot orders so CDROM boots first... then try to boot to the live cd... (make sure you run the right version eg i86 | 20:49 |
| g3nto0 | like throwing it far away | 20:49 |
| newser | usser, done | 20:49 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: that will recursively check all readable files for that string and only print the file names | 20:49 |
| odinsbane | So I looked for errors and the only error I found was one concerning the video card. | 20:49 |
| usser | newser, now from another computer that is connected to the same switch | 20:49 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: Do you have prelinux.0 direction listed in your dhcpd.conf file? | 20:49 |
| Scunizi | gh0stn0te: if you're using the nvidia driver supplied by ubuntu then xrandr pretty much controls the video despite the existance of xorg. there are ways to add resolutions to xrandr.. also know as randr but googling xrandr & ubuntu will result be lots of hits. | 20:49 |
| Samper | unjustice: if it still does not work have you tried an md5 check sum to ensure the image you downloaded is ligit? | 20:49 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: drop the H if you want to see the full lines that the sting is found in for each file | 20:49 |
| usser | newser, is it running windows or linux? | 20:49 |
| gh0stn0te | unjustice the real nightmare is that ati stopped to offer support for ati 9600 cards on his driver under jaunty | 20:49 |
| odinsbane | I checked on bug reports and it is unclear to me what the probem is or if/what is the solution. | 20:50 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, so, the syntax should be: sudo grep 'search_string' / -r -v | 20:50 |
| unjustice | zack: haha, that was my slip not yours | 20:50 |
| newser | usser, linux | 20:50 |
| unjustice | Samper: yes | 20:50 |
| zack | but.. you said not to say nvidida | 20:50 |
| gh0stn0te | thanks Scunizi , have u read that Zack? | 20:50 |
| zack | >_> your confusing me now | 20:50 |
| zack | read what.. the thing about xrandr? | 20:50 |
| usser | newser, you'll need to assign a static ip to the second computer as well | 20:50 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: not -v that is to search for files that do not have a string | 20:50 |
| gh0stn0te | yep, maybe it can help | 20:51 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: but otherwise, that should work | 20:51 |
| usser | newser, in the same way we did first, edit /etc/network/interface | 20:51 |
| newser | ok, let me get into the router | 20:51 |
| unjustice | Samper: I tried both versions of the disc, this is the 4th one I am burning now | 20:51 |
| Scunizi | zack: yes | 20:51 |
| usser | newser, but change 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.100 | 20:51 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, cool. thanks. I'm making a serious effort to learn this CLI stuff. I don't want to be a "windows convert". | 20:51 |
| zack | ok so what i want to do is uninstall my prop driver, install the repo one, and then modify resolutions in xrandr? | 20:51 |
| naresh | Hie all, am a new bee | 20:51 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: usually you want to include the flags after the call, but it should still work | 20:51 |
| Samper | unjustice: what happens when you put the cd in the drive | 20:51 |
| zack | is there anyway i can disable xrandr completely and pass off control to xorg.conf? | 20:52 |
| newser | usser, ohhh, sorry, I didnt read, the second computer uses windoows | 20:52 |
| Scunizi | zack: sorry I missed some of the previous stuff.. the prop driver from nvidia (latest) is a better driver then the repo one.. | 20:52 |
| unjustice | Samper: nothing, until startup...then it runs it with wine and when I try to install it gives a wine error | 20:52 |
| usser | newser, oh ok, even easier, go to network connection properties | 20:52 |
| Scunizi | zack: so is the issue the rez doesn't stick or you don't have access to the right rez? | 20:52 |
| naresh | I have a problem with postfix :E: postfix: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 75 | 20:52 |
| naresh | E: bsd-mailx: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured | 20:52 |
| naresh | E: mailx: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured | 20:52 |
| usser | newser, and set the static ip with 192.168.0.100 as an address 255.255.255.0 as a netmask and 192.168.0.1 as a default gateway | 20:52 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, DOS is fun, but I find it restrictive | 20:52 |
| musikgoat|main | yes | 20:52 |
| unjustice | Samper: in other computers, the cds won't boot either before GNOME loads | 20:53 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: and not intuitive | 20:53 |
| zack | Scunizi honestly i dont know, heres my issue, under low resolution mode without the proper driver, my display will fit to screen, with the prop driver, it does not fit to screen | 20:53 |
| gh0stn0te | <Scunizi> zack: so is the issue the rez doesn't stick or you don't have access to the right rez? <--- in fact, he cant use a resolution higher than 1024x768 | 20:53 |
| unjustice | Scunizi: he has nividia's driver | 20:53 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: i mean, who really loves writing a batch script :P | 20:53 |
| zack | all 4 sides of my screen are cut off.. but yeah ghostnote is right i cant set my res pas 1024 | 20:53 |
| newser | usser, that will take me out of here, because the windows based computer is the one im using right now, but I am using ubuntu on it, so I would have to restart | 20:53 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, if I used: sudo grep 'search_string' -r > output_file.txt would it write the output to a txt file? | 20:53 |
| h4f | mplayer says : parse_es: could not sync video stream!, I thinks that's file problem. Is there a way to fix that file ? | 20:53 |
| Scunizi | zack: and when you installed the nvidia driver did you do it from a tty after shutting down gdm or kdm? | 20:53 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: yes | 20:54 |
| naresh | E: postfix: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 75 | 20:54 |
| naresh | E: bsd-mailx: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured | 20:54 |

| FloodBot2 | naresh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 20:54 |
| newser | usser, but I think if you tell me what else to do, I can figure it out | 20:54 |
| usser | newser, use the one that we have already setup to chat, | 20:54 |
| zack | Scunizi, you have to exit to a tty, what i did was i went to tty1, did etc/init.d/gdm stop, sh the file, then did gdm start | 20:54 |
| newser | usser, ok, hold on | 20:54 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, ok, so, when do you use pipe? | 20:54 |
| zack | to install the nvidia driver proprietary you have to completely stop X | 20:54 |
| odinsbane | OKay another problem I have is my wireless, I need to sudo to turn it on when I reboot. Is there anyway to fix that? | 20:54 |
| leo__ | hi | 20:55 |
| Samper | unjustice: can you browse the CD when you are in windows/linux without rebooting?... are you running ubuntu? Becasue usually ubuntu recognizes the CD and tries to upgrade from it. | 20:55 |
| Scunizi | zack: and during the install process it asked several questions.. did you answer yes to all of them? | 20:55 |
| newser_1 | usser, ok, Im on now | 20:55 |
| ewanchic | Hello. I'm trying to setup netbooting using a DHCP3-server, TFTP, and apache. I'm sure everything is working...no errors, but, my workstation won't boot to the PXE file ("pxelinux.0"). Can anybody help me? | 20:55 |
| newser_1 | usser, let me restart the other | 20:55 |
| usser | newser_1, cool, restart the other machine into windows | 20:55 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: when you want to redirect the output to another command, like if you wanted to see only the file names of that output... sudo grep -r "string" / | cut -d ":" -f 1 | 20:55 |
| leo__ | someone know a method for use multiple interfaces with exim? | 20:55 |
| unjustice | Samper: yes I can, but ti cannot upgrade. and I cannot manually run the install from terminal | 20:55 |
| leo__ | unfortunately, it always use main interface | 20:55 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, ahhh, ok. I'll get the "hang" of this. | 20:55 |
| h4f | mplayer says : parse_es: could not sync video stream!, I thinks that's file problem. Is there a way to fix that file ? | 20:55 |
| unjustice | Samper: the autoinstall crashes via wine (which is the only program that is allows me to run it with) | 20:55 |
| odinsbane | To turn it on,I use the command: echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/wlan | 20:56 |
| zack | it actually doesnt ask several questions, all it asks is to accept the agreement, it asks if u want to download the kernel module, if u hit yes it says it cant find the server so it builds its own module, then installs, finally asks to run nvidia-xconfig and i hit yes | 20:56 |
| * D3f0 is away: Ausente por ahora | 20:56 | |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: there are a ton of bash guides out there to play with | 20:56 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, how would I tail the postfix log file so I can find out why my server won't send e-mail from my e-mail client | 20:56 |
| Samper | unjustice: hmmmmm... why are you trunning from wine? | 20:56 |
| odinsbane | And if I make the wlan file r/w able for normal users then I can use my hot keys to turn wireless on. | 20:56 |
| unjustice | Samper: I am not | 20:56 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: you can tail it in the background with tail -f /var/log/postfix.log & | 20:56 |
| Scunizi | zack: well.. that would be several questions.. did you also deactivate the ubuntu nvidia driver prior to installation of the new driver? | 20:56 |
| blake1 | Can I use partition magic the windows program to resize my windows partition to 80GB and my ubuntu partition to 160GB | 20:56 |
| unjustice | Samper: it will not run from terminal or konsole or any other program | 20:56 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: then run other commands if you need to | 20:56 |
| jeeves | Samper, becasue my Dr told me I might be a drunk! LOL | 20:56 |
| unjustice | Samper: only wine | 20:57 |
| cjae | anyone using nvidia 185.18.14? | 20:57 |
| Scunizi | cjae: yes | 20:57 |
| zack | Scunizi, lol ok i just didnt consider it several, i did not deactivate the driver because it wasnt active | 20:57 |
| zack | cjae, i use that driver | 20:57 |
| cjae | Scunizi, how? | 20:57 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, I actully have 2 systems. one is a netbook that's having the sending issue, and I have my desktop system. so I was looking to watch it in real time if there is a way | 20:57 |
| Scunizi | zack: at any point did you try envy-ng? | 20:57 |
| usser | newser_1, so? | 20:57 |
| cjae | Scunizi, manual install | 20:57 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: just drop the & | 20:57 |
| unjustice | Samper: wine is set as default to run it with, but when I try to change it it fails | 20:57 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: Do you have prelinux.0 direction listed in your dhcpd.conf file? | 20:57 |
| Scunizi | cjae: you want to know how to install it? | 20:58 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: tail -f means to follow | 20:58 |
| zack | Scunizii actually didnt, but envy-ng loads the ubuntu repo driver the same way restricted does doesnt it? | 20:58 |
| cjae | Scunizi, yes | 20:58 |
| ProfessorX | Hi, how do I setup a folder to my apache directory on Ubuntu? | 20:58 |
| odinsbane | If I change the permissions on the file my hot keys work, but when I restart the permissions revert, is there anything I can do about this? | 20:58 |
| ProfessorX | Hi, how do I setup a folder to my apache directory on Ubuntu? | 20:58 |
| newser_1 | usser, was looking for ethernet cable, now I got it | 20:58 |
| cjae | Scunizi, I read a page awhile ago, but havent checked to see if its updated, does it fix separate x screens issue? | 20:59 |
| ProfessorX | I want it to open when I enter my ip address/file on mozilla. | 20:59 |
| Scunizi | zack: in almost every case when someone has tried that I've seen a mess made.. that's why envy-ng isn't really recommended. Have you had a kernel upgrade since your installation of the driver? | 20:59 |
| ProfessorX | !apache | 20:59 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 20:59 |
| zack | Scunizi, actualy this time around i havent done any update, on previous tries i have done update which included kernel updates, but this time im using stock kernel | 20:59 |
| usr13 | leo__: What exactly are you trying to do? Do you really need to use two nics? Are they connected to two different networks? | 20:59 |
| Scunizi | cjae: not sure what that issue is.. but you could read their release notes on it to see. http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html | 21:00 |
| newser_1 | usser, could you repeat the control panel thing, I lost the text on the other computer | 21:00 |
| Scunizi | zack: what card is it? | 21:00 |
| usser | newser_1, go to control panel network connections, go to properties of your network connection and set the static ip as follows: ip 192.168.0.100, netmask 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.0.1 | 21:00 |
| zack | Scunizi, i bought an EVGA Geforce 8600GT card, lspci sees it as an nVidia Geforce 8600GT card | 21:01 |
| ewanchic | Hello. I'm trying to setup netbooting using a DHCP3-server, TFTP, and apache. I'm sure everything is working...no errors, but, my workstation won't boot to the PXE file ("prelinux.0"). Can anybody help me? | 21:01 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, ok, so if I used: tail postfix.log -f it should show me the output? | 21:01 |
| Samper | unjustice: have you tried running something like Knoppix and see if that loads?.. I rarely have a problem running knoppix... | 21:01 |
| cjae | Scunizi, did, see that it fixes the windows opening on wrong screens | 21:01 |
| Scunizi | zack: strange issue.. have you checked the nvidia unix/linux forums yet? | 21:01 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: you usually add the flags after the command, but i believe that would work | 21:01 |
| newser_1 | usser, ok, got it | 21:01 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, ok, I was just checking. I'd really like to find out what is going on, and why I can't send | 21:02 |
| Samper | ewanchic: been asking the same question for a while eh? can your card support PXE? | 21:02 |
| usser | newser_1, cool save it open a terminal window on a windows machine and try ping 192.168.0.1 | 21:02 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: of course the path to the file needs to be correct | 21:02 |
| zack | Scunizi, not to sound like an idiot, but i wasnt aware there were ones, ive tried ubuntu forums but no one there is helpful.. normaly with my linux issues ive just googled it and eventually i find the answer.. is there a nvidia linux unix irc? id prefer that if its available | 21:02 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, of course. I was just trying to shorten it | 21:02 |
| cjae | Scunizi, when you select separate x screens the second screen is black (eg. tv out to my plasma only has and x cursor nothing else) | 21:02 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: thats what i assumed | 21:02 |
| usser | newser_1, is the ping getting through? | 21:02 |
| cratel | how do I figure out what package includes pasuspender? I tried 'sudo apt-cache search pasuspender' and that brought up nothing | 21:03 |

| ewanchic | samper: I'm 80% sure. How can I check? and which care are we talking about, My client workstation, or the Server ? | 21:03 |
| Scunizi | cjae: check out this link for how I initially install nvidia drivers.. http://pastebin.com/f273e838b | 21:03 |
| qdii | hello. I've just installed a fresh ubuntu version but I've got the same old problem : | 21:03 |
| qdii | when I try and run another x server, it just goes on a blank screen and voila... I end up hard rebooting my computer | 21:03 |
| Scunizi | zack: there is.. | 21:03 |
| newser_1 | usser, yea | 21:03 |
| usser | newser_1, cool can you ping 74.125.67.100 now | 21:03 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: but i have to support administrators that can assume too much, then there can be trouble | 21:03 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: There is no client installation, you just boot to network. | 21:03 |
| Scunizi | zack: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=14 | 21:03 |
| stink | ubuntu on a 900 eee | 21:03 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: so it just comes natural to me :P | 21:03 |

| jeeves | musikgoat|main, lol, no worries, I'm the Sr. admin in a mixed windows network. I hate my life | 21:04 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: But as I said before, not all NICs will do network boot. | 21:04 |
| Samper | ewanchic: the server doesn;'t matter... it is the client that needs pxe support. I would google the card (use lspci to get a readout of the specs on the network card).. then google the card make and model for PXE. | 21:04 |
| zack | Scunizi, hot darn thats beautiful.. ill post my issue there and include a screen shot.. videre est credere! :D | 21:04 |
| zack | thanks for your help Scunizi, take care buddy | 21:04 |
| Scunizi | zack: no problem.. :) | 21:04 |
| ewanchic | usr13: well, I've set my bios on my laptop to networking boot, and as it boots, it's looking for the PXE boot image | 21:04 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: :-) I'm a support rep for a linux software that is installed in server farms, so i understand your pain | 21:05 |

| usr13 | Samper: If he has no OS on the client machine he can not do lspci. BUT, he can boot to live CD or some sort of boot disk. | 21:05 |
| usser | newser_1, so? | 21:05 |
| newser_1 | usser, neat, how can I know the ip of a website? | 21:05 |
| RkyRaccoon | hey, can someone help me adjust my screen brightness in ubuntu 9.10? | 21:05 |
| newser_1 | usser, got it | 21:05 |
| usser | newser_1, now the only thing left is to setup dns servers on the windows machine | 21:05 |
| Zini | Hi! I just got my first Ubuntu PC (rocks btw.), everything already pre-installed from the dealer. But now I need a password to install additional software. This may be a dumb question, but: Is there a default pw for a freshly installed Ubuntu or did my dealer simply forget to tell me what he had choosen as pw? | 21:05 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, lol, i'm trying to get better @ this Linux thing so I can get outta windows | 21:05 |
| Samper | ewanchic: in the vent that your card is not supported, don't worry, check out the gPXE project here (http://etherboot.org/wiki/index.php) | 21:05 |
| newser_1 | usser, ok | 21:05 |
| cjae | Scunizi, thanks | 21:05 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: do you have your pxe server defined in the dhcpd.conf file? | 21:05 |
| RkyRaccoon | hey, can someone help me adjust my screen brightness in ubuntu 9.10? | 21:06 |
| usser | newser_1, i like opendns but there are others, opendns's servers are 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 | 21:06 |
| usser | newser_1, put that in the connection properties on windows machine | 21:06 |
| musikgoat|main | jeeves: good, get out of the box! | 21:06 |
| Samper | usr13 / ewanchic: if you hvae no OS on the machine grab a KNoppix CD, boot it up and drop to a CLI | 21:06 |
| TD-Linux | RkyRaccoon: can't do it from the monitor? | 21:06 |
| vlt | Zini: Should be the same you log in with. | 21:06 |
| usser | newser_1, i dont remember where the fields are exactly on windows, but it should be somewhere in the connection properties, DNS1 DNS2 | 21:06 |
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, being bill's b**ch isn't for me | 21:06 |
| RkyRaccoon | TD-Linux: its a laptop and as far as the brightness keys go, its all the way up | 21:07 |

| Zini | vlt: No login procedure here. After booting I land immediately on the desktop. | 21:07 |
| RkyRaccoon | TD-Linux: since 9.10 there are only two settings for my brightness, pitch black and dark | 21:07 |
| TD-Linux | RkyRaccoon: if you're sure it's all the way up (and BIOS isn't limiting it, for example when on battery power) you've hit the limit | 21:07 |
| usser | newser_1, yea probably | 21:07 |
| TD-Linux | RkyRaccoon: bug? :/ | 21:07 |
| niklaus | wtf? | 21:07 |
| RkyRaccoon | TD-Linux: thanks | 21:07 |
| niklaus | what does a ubutnu-channel on gentoo? | 21:08 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: As Samper says, you should probably check to see that the NIC in the client is capable of booting to a pxe server. BUT, you should see on the screens as it boots that it is (or is not) searching for pxe boot image. | 21:08 |
| niklaus | ;) | 21:08 |
| vlt | Zini: Then open a shell, type `passwd` | 21:08 |
| usser | newser_1, mind you this is a very basic setup, you'll need to assign static ips to every network device on your network | 21:08 |
| TD-Linux | if it was brighter before using the up/down arrows should do it | 21:08 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: Do you see that? | 21:08 |
| RkyRaccoon | TD-Linux, ill try messing with the bios | 21:08 |
| === niklaus is now known as g3nt0o | ||
| jeeves | musikgoat|main, well, according to this log file. it looses connection after EHLO | 21:08 |
| TD-Linux | RkyRaccoon: if that doesn't work file a bugreport | 21:08 |
| usser | newser_1, for more involved setup you'll need to configure your own dhcp server on the machine that shares wireless and if you want even your own dns server | 21:08 |

| Samper | ewanchic: the other thing too is that you have to set in your bios to boot from network (aka pxe).. otherwise it won't give you the boot option when it finds the network card... | 21:09 |

| jilbert | there! finally.. :) | 21:39 |
| jilbert | anybody up? | 21:40 |
| ewanchic | usr13: It is. /etc/init.d/tftpd-hba start Starting HPA's tftpd: in.tftpd. | 21:40 |
| Rainer__ | Simple question: | 21:40 |
| unjustice | guntbert: yes I did | 21:40 |
| ewanchic | usr13: Are there and telnet test/ping I could run to troubleshoot? | 21:40 |
| Rainer__ | Does writing a parser for XML require context-free grammar knowledge? | 21:40 |
| inx-live | I got permission denied with the UTF.8 thing | 21:40 |
| unjustice | guntbert: of course, by that I mean that I set the CD to load before the hard disk and floppy drive (lol) | 21:40 |
| jilbert | how can i tell if a restricted driver is already installed? | 21:41 |
| guntbert | unjustice: yes :-) | 21:41 |
| eraldo | now, with numpad on "2" on the numpad sends "2" and with num disabled it sends the code for down ...but I want it to send nkp2 or something like it | 21:41 |
| jilbert | sorry im new to linux | 21:41 |
| Halitech | jilbert, check System - Admin - Hardware drivers | 21:41 |
| jilbert | im installing gigabyte 9400 GT | 21:41 |
| jilbert | okay. thanks.. | 21:42 |
| jilbert | let me check Halitech :) | 21:42 |
| guntbert | unjustice: so: you cannot boot off any CD on *this* PC, you cannot boot off *these* CDs on any PC, right? | 21:42 |
| stroyan | eraldo: You could use ncurses library calls. Or from a shell script you could use "tput skmx" and "tput rkmx"; See "man tput", "man 5 terminfo", and "man keypad" after installing the libncurses5-dev package. | 21:43 |
| cratel | I have a long command with a bunch of switches that I need to send in a script. Works fine but I need to add 'pasuspender' in front of it and then it doesn't work because pasuspender thinks the flags are for it. tried ` and '. My command includes " already. Ideas? | 21:43 |
| Rainer__ | Does writing an XML parser require any knowledge of context-free grammars? | 21:43 |
| kane77 | I played a game and it overrides gamma of display, but the game crashed and now everything is too bright, is there anything I can do to restore gamma without restarting? | 21:43 |
| eraldo | stroyan: haeh? | 21:44 |
| eraldo | stroyan: What is the problem... why is it not sendin what it should? | 21:44 |
| DareDevil0 | Nada de nada | 21:44 |
| jilbert | oh one more thing.. just installed jaunty on 1 TB.. i made / 250 GB, 20GB swap/ and 750 GB /usr.. did i partitioned my disk right? | 21:44 |
| unjustice | guntbert: not off of boot, no | 21:44 |
| unjustice | guntbert: but they run after boot, but not on the particular computer I am trying to get working | 21:44 |
| stroyan | eraldo: It is sending what it should. You just haven't asked it to send what you want. :-) | 21:45 |
| jilbert | hmm.. | 21:45 |
| jjnw | jilbert, there is no right way to partition a disk, it depends how you are going to use it | 21:45 |
| kane77 | jilbert, you will have more than enough space.. 250 for / is quite a lot | 21:45 |
| jilbert | i see.. oh well. that's okay i guess.. ill just resize that partition if i figure how to.. | 21:46 |
| eraldo | stroyan: is there a way to tell gnome-terminal to use VT100? | 21:46 |
| odonata | 20gb swap? | 21:46 |
| jjnw | kane77, you have a good point | 21:46 |
| tiburon | hello | 21:46 |
| kane77 | jilbert, and swap should be 2x your ram.. if you have loads of ram it will never get used anyway :) | 21:46 |
| jilbert | yes 20GB.. i think that's too big.. | 21:46 |
| jack_ | hello | 21:46 |
| Halitech | jilbert, I would go 20 gig for / , 2gig for swap and the rest for /home , you don't need that much space for /usr | 21:46 |
| jilbert | kane77 my bad. i shoul've made it that way | 21:47 |

| Flannel | cratel: escape the quotes in your inner command | 21:47 |
| kane77 | jilbert, not that it's a problem, but it is wasting space | 21:47 |
| Mamoncete | Hi all | 21:47 |
| stroyan | eraldo: The gnome-terminal escape codes are basically the same as vt100, with some extensions. | 21:48 |
| guntbert | unjustice: I'm pretty close to the end of my ideas :(, last thing for now: try to get hold of a "original" boot CD (no self burnt one), and try to boot with that (doesn't matter what OS) - just to make sure your PC is able to boot off a CD at all | 21:48 |
| Halitech | jilbert, yes but you will need to use a live cd as you can't make changes to a mounted system | 21:48 |
| stroyan | eraldo: I need to go away for now. | 21:48 |
| kane77 | jilbert, you should be able to shrink partitions and grow others either by using ubuntu livecd, or specialized gparted livecd | 21:48 |
| kansan | how do i get flash working on firefox 3.5? | 21:48 |
| kansan | on ubuntu hardy | 21:48 |

| jilbert | its downloading the updates. its lik 120 MB and my internet connection is slow :( | 21:49 |
| Mamoncete | I have a problem with POSTFIX. When at work in my laptop I can send emails using mail PHP function because I have a POSTFIX server runing. When I go home, I take with me the same laptop and under my own NETWORK the mail function doesn't send anything, but the laptop the postfix server are the same as in the office, and at home I checked that in my router the port 25 (SMTP) is opened.

| jilbert | on what option on the live cd agaoin Halitech? | 21:50 |
| Neremor | but it tells me that i have the wrong driver installed | 21:50 |
| Halitech | just boot into the live environment and use partition editor | 21:50 |
| kane77 | Neremor, for graphics card? what card you have? | 21:50 |
| Neremor | i have an ati card for which amd dropped driver development (ATI Radeon X1650 Pro) | 21:50 |

| usr13 | ewanchic: Yes... | 21:52 |
| Neremor | is there a way to just hide the error message and try the game anyway? | 21:52 |
| jjnw | binarysolo, you may want to check a less specific medium, try google | 21:53 |

| ZenMasta | how do I figure out what port webmin is configured to? | 21:53 |
| Halitech | Neremor, you could try vesa for very basic driver | 21:53 |
| fiver22 | any reason why video would be choppy after installing firefox 3.5? It's totally possible that this is just my imagination. | 21:53 |
| F9 | ZenMaster: it should be 1000, that's the default | 21:54 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: get ubuntu/8.04-hardy/dvd-amd64/install/netboot/pxelinux.0 | 21:54 |
| F9 | ZenMasta: it should be 1000, that's the default | 21:54 |
| kane77 | Halitech, but that probably won't run Regnum online, which was his question.. | 21:54 |
| F9 | (wrong name) | 21:54 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: see if the file actually gets to the client. | 21:54 |
| ZenMasta | 1000 isn't working for me, can I check a config somewhere? | 21:54 |
| Neremor | but vesa cant run 3d graphic | 21:54 |
| niiayitey | does anybody have any documentation on ubuntu servers? | 21:54 |
| Neremor | i'm currently using the ubuntu driver which is very nice | 21:54 |
| F9 | don't know I'm afraid, I only installed it today myself | 21:55 |
| Halitech | kane77, probably not but I *think* he's got 3 options, the fglrx driver, Ubuntu driver and vesa | 21:55 |
| Neremor | but i'm not able to play regnum because it requests the amd official driver | 21:55 |

| xomp | hiya, is it possible to install ubuntu on a Powerbook G4? preferrably dual booting with the existing OS X installation? | 21:55 |
| guntbert | !webmin | ZenMasta, but the standard port is 10000, not 1000 | 21:56 |
| ubottu | ZenMasta, but the standard port is 10000, not 1000: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 21:56 |

| ewanchic | usr13: I was trying to leanr more about that and I figured it wasn't neccesary. I thought it meant that the DHCP would be finished and then hop. But since I didn't have DHCP on my 10.0.0.92. I'd probably mess something up. | 22:12 |

| laymansnerd | Biovore: you rock!! | 22:15 |
| Biovore | laymansnerd: afterward you should beable to hold the alt-key and move the windows up off the screen. | 22:15 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: So take a look at mine and see if you can tell what may be wrong. (And I know, it's not a Ubuntu server, but the basic configuration should be no different). | 22:15 |

| ewanchic | usr13: "(And I know, it's not a Ubuntu server, but the basic configuration should be no different)." argeed ;) | 22:17 |
| rtc11 | how do you guys see pastebin? | 22:17 |
| guntbert | rtc11: you tell us the url | 22:17 |
| nanotube | kyle__: put the * outside the quote | 22:17 |
| === tomahawk is now known as Guest67974 | ||
| Halitech | rtc11, open a web browser and go to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com and paste the info in to the empty box | 22:18 |
| queso | Will the firefox-3.5 package automatically get updated via the Update Manager? | 22:18 |
| === Guest67974 is now known as smokythom | ||
| Biovore | queso: it will when it becomes stable.. | 22:18 |
| Biovore | queso: if you want the bleeding edge you will need to download and install manually. | 22:18 |
| nanotube | kyle: also, replace two questionmarks with a *, because shell doesn't treat that as a stand-in for single character... | 22:18 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: Ok, well, good luck. It should work for you. Mine did right off the bat, wasn't much to it as I recall. I set it up over a year ago and then changed when new version came out earlier this year so that just the new files were there and the installer would point to them correctly. (I just use it for network installs). | 22:18 |
| sylvanus_ | I know where to get them just not how to install them. I usually rely on the deb package installer and this file is different | 22:18 |
| kyle__ | nanotube: rename 's/^??_Final Fantasy 9 - //' '??_Final Fantasy 9 -'* gives me same error | 22:19 |
| deco | yay found a solution , for those that need to change their color scheme in gnu/screen run this command select-screen-profile | 22:19 |
| queso | Biovore: If I download and install it, where is the standard location to put the binaries on the linux filesystem? /usr/local or ___ ? | 22:19 |
| Biovore | queso: you can make a directory in your homedirectory if you want.. | 22:19 |
| nanotube | kyle__: so: rename 's/^??_Final Fantasy 9 - //' *'_Final Fantasy 9 - '* | 22:19 |
| queso | Biovore: I'd like it to be available system-wide | 22:19 |
| Biovore | queso: probably should go with /usr/local/<stuff> | 22:20 |
| queso | Biovore: Do all regular users by default have privs to execute programs from that dir? | 22:20 |
| kyle__ | nanotube: well that got rid of everything but the numbers but i think i can handle it | 22:21 |
| Biovore | queso: yes.. if you set premissions correctly.. but everyone should be able to work with stuff there.. | 22:21 |
| queso | Biovore: Great, thanks for your help, it's appreciated :) | 22:21 |
| Biovore | queso: or you can do /opt | 22:21 |
| Biovore | there are many options | 22:21 |
| nanotube | kyle__: hmm, sohuld have gotten rid of the numbers too... | 22:21 |
| rtc11 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/209310/ | 22:21 |
| queso | Biovore: What's the difference between /usr/local and /opt ? | 22:21 |
| rtc11 | i think i am doing what you ask | 22:21 |
| ZenMasta | kyle__ still might want to checkout http://www.infinicode.org/code/pyrenamer/ sometime | 22:21 |
| guntbert | !prefix | rtc11 | 22:22 |
| ubottu | rtc11: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 22:22 |
| nanotube | kyle__: ah, instead of question marks, use '.', which is a standin for "any character" in perl regexps. | 22:22 |
| Biovore | queso: nothing.. just preferance.. | 22:22 |
| rtc11 | i tried adding fire fox 3.5 and got that error | 22:22 |
| Biovore | queso: opt is ment for optional things.. | 22:22 |
| rtc11 | ok | 22:22 |
| ewanchic | usr13: I'm just using range, but your using range dynamic-bootp? | 22:22 |
| * Biovore looks to see if he can find a howto for firefox 3.5 on ubuntu | 22:22 | |
| kyle__ | nanotube: thanks, i ran rename 's/^..//' * and all the numbers disappeared | 22:22 |
| nanotube | kyle__: excellent :) | 22:23 |
| queso | Biovore: Is /usr/local where packages install binaries? If so, right now, there's nothing in my /opt directory. Perhaps I should use /opt so I don't cross any packages in the future? | 22:23 |
| usr13 | ewanchic: Yes, I just followed a set of instructions and, well I could show you the instructions I used if you like. | 22:23 |
| Biovore | queso: /usr/local is for local (non distro stuff) normally.. | 22:23 |
| ewanchic | usr13: That would be great. The more info the better. | 22:24 |
| Biovore | ubuntu dosn't normally put anything under it.. its a hold over from BSD old unix world.. | 22:24 |
| kyle__ | nanotube: heh, my bad. it deleted the first two letters of the ones i renamed by hand. oh well, i can remember most of the titles :) | 22:24 |
| guntbert | !ff35 | Biovore, queso : the link at the end | 22:24 |
| ubottu | Biovore, queso : the link at the end: Firefox 3.5 Final is currently being built and tested for Jaunty. If you *need* to install it, the firefox-3.5 *beta* package from the repositories will be updated when testing is complete. See also http://is.gd/1jkNY | 22:24 |
| queso | Biovore: Okay, thanks -- I'll copy it into /usr/local Thanks again :) | 22:24 |

| theFunzo | hi guys, why isn't firefox updated to 3.5 for me? :S It has always updated smoothly with the updater... | 22:33 |
| Biovore | theFunzo: its beta | 22:33 |
| Biovore | !ff3.5 | 22:33 |
| ubottu | Firefox 3.5 Final is currently being built and tested for Jaunty. If you *need* to install it, the firefox-3.5 *beta* package from the repositories will be updated when testing is complete. See also http://is.gd/1jkNY | 22:33 |
| theFunzo | no | 22:33 |
| theFunzo | is it? | 22:33 |
| ProfessorX | Biovore: It did not change the permission with chmod 777 foldername | 22:33 |
| Flannel | theFunzo: the main firefox won't ever be updated. It'll stay Firefox 3.0.*, however, there's a firefox 3.5 package you can install, which is the beta version currently, and will be updated to final soon. | 22:33 |
| Biovore | ProfessorX: sudo chmod 777 <FolderName> -R | 22:34 |
| jesus | hola | 22:34 |
| Biovore | that should make it rwx for everyone. | 22:34 |

| Patrickaaaa | how do u run a program using SUDO? | 22:34 |
| Flannel | Biovore, ProfessorX: If you actually want to do that, don't use 777, use: a+rX | 22:34 |
| deco | there* | 22:34 |
| Mamoncete | I have a problem with POSTFIX. When at work in my laptop I can send emails using mail PHP function because I have a POSTFIX server runing. When I go home, I take with me the same laptop and under my own NETWORK the mail function doesn't send anything, but the laptop the postfix server are the same as in the office, and at home I checked that in my router the port 25 (SMTP) is opened. I can't figure out where is the problem, a | 22:34 |
| Mamoncete | ny clue please? | 22:34 |
| Flannel | !lamp | deco | 22:34 |
| ubottu | deco: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 22:34 |
| Patrickaaaa | because some program require root what is the sudo command to run a program? | 22:35 |
| Biovore | Patrickaaaa: sudo <program name> | 22:35 |
| deco | Flannel: thanks! | 22:35 |
| ProfessorX | Biovre chmod: cannot access `777': No such file or directory" | 22:35 |
| Patrickaaaa | thank you Biovore | 22:35 |
| guntbert | !sudo | Patrickaaaa | 22:35 |
| ubottu | Patrickaaaa: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 22:35 |
| Flannel | ProfessorX: chmod -R a+rX /path/to/folder | 22:35 |
| Patrickaaaa | which is better ettercap or wireshark | 22:36 |
| guntbert | ProfessorX: with -v chmod tells you what it is doing too | 22:36 |
| guntbert | !best | Patrickaaaa | 22:36 |
| ubottu | Patrickaaaa: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 22:36 |
| Patrickaaaa | oh ok | 22:37 |
| ProfessorX | Flannel: Its still not writeable by the public | 22:37 |
| Flannel | ProfessorX: please pastebin the output of ls -la /path/to/folder | 22:37 |

| LinuX2half | ubuntu only updates for 18 months right? | 22:40 |
| CleanLaundry | guntbert, thanks | 22:40 |
| Flannel | LinuX2half: Non-LTS releases are supported for 18 months, LTS releases are supported for 3 years on the desktop, 5 on the server. | 22:40 |
| LinuX2half | but you can upgrade for free? | 22:41 |
| Flannel | LinuX2half: Of course. | 22:41 |
| Danbo19 | hooray for free! | 22:42 |
| LinuX2half | so let say that 18 months expire, then how can I continue updating? Is there a fee? | 22:42 |
| Halitech | LinuX2half, yes | 22:42 |
| fiver22 | LinuX2half: totally | 22:42 |
| Flannel | LinuX2half: you can upgrade a single release at a time (like 8.10 to 9.04) and then LTS releases can also go LTS to LTS, if you want a longer cycle, and a new one comes out every 2 years | 22:42 |
| stealth- | LinuX2half: no, linux never costs anything | 22:42 |
| Flannel | LinuX2half: Lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic, I have some questions about that question ebfore I can answer, and it's getting a bit noisy in here | 22:43 |
| stealth- | LinuX2half: you can upgrade to the latest version after your expires, keep using the same one, or download the newer one and reinstall | 22:43 |
| doctorcode | why isn't there any fuse kernelmodule running? lsmod | grep fuse - returns nothing... is this supposed to be like that? | 22:43 |
| Biovore | In Linux.. the cost is in people and professional support.. (Thats what the parent companies are selling) | 22:43 |
| LinuX2half | okay, let pretend that the next version had already comes out and if I upgrade it, I'll have another 18 months to update? | 22:44 |
| Halitech | stealth-, not true, you have to purchase some | 22:44 |
| jhv | LinuX2half yes | 22:44 |
| Biovore | Redhat 5el for instance.. | 22:44 |
| balloooza314 | dose anyone here use festival voice systhisis (or can help me) | 22:45 |

| laymansnerd | i keep getting an ata-softreset error message on startup....any ideas on how to fix this? | 22:45 |
| Flannel | LinuX2half: Every 6 months a new release comes out, you have a year after that to upgrade before your release isn't supported anymore | 22:45 |
| LinuX2half | Or is it like I have 4 month till it expire and then I upgrade to the next version, will I get 22 month or just 18 months? | 22:45 |
| Flannel | LinuX2half: lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic, it'll be too noisy to explain in here. | 22:45 |
| Flannel | LinuX2half: /join #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:46 |
| tanquiol | alguien me podria ayudar con algun software que me permita controlar mi Ubuntu-Desktop remotamente desde cualquier lugar algo asi como logmein | 22:46 |
| stealth- | Halitech: opps, I forgot about those distros. I meant ubuntu :) | 22:46 |
| jhv | LinuX2half: there are predefined cycles in the ubuntu releases, it doesn't matter when you install, it matters when the release is made, as Flannel stated there 18 months of upgrades from the release date | 22:46 |
| Halitech | stealth-, thought you did ;) | 22:46 |
| Danbo19 | I've always wondered, how do companies like Cannonical make their money anyway? | 22:47 |
| stealth- | Danbo19: ads? donations? ubuntu store? payed-for support? | 22:47 |
| deco | does 9.04 come with a firewall? | 22:47 |
| Tm_T | !ufw | deco | 22:47 |
| ubottu | deco: 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 | 22:47 |
| Flannel | Danbo19: That's a good question for #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:47 |
| ghindo | Danbo19, I'm not sure if they're turning a profit at this point, but the Ubuntu store and support for their products | 22:47 |
| stealth- | deco: no, but there is lots you can download | 22:47 |
| Halitech | Danbo19, from companies that purchase support contracts and sales of "promotional" products like shirts, etc | 22:47 |
| fiver22 | any reason why video would be choppy after installing firefox 3.5? It's totally possible that this is just my imagination | 22:48 |

| kbrosnan | fiver22: which firefox 3.5, which video? | 22:48 |

| balloooza314 | este canal se encuentra en Inglés, creo que hay somwhere español. | 22:49 |
| LinuX2half | okay, let me concluded that I'll get only 18 months if I upgraded to the next version. | 22:49 |
| Flannel | LinuX2half: Please join #ubuntu-offtopic, you've got some large misconceptions I think about how this works, and I'd like to clear them up for you. | 22:49 |
| LinuX2half | if I want to have a longer cycle I'll need to wait for another 2 years | 22:49 |
| rtc11 | okay, so with ubuntu i dont really need a firewall, a virus scanner or a disk fragmentation program is that right? | 22:50 |
| Halitech | rtc11, correct | 22:50 |
| deco | rtc11: firewall you do | 22:50 |
| Biovore | debateable | 22:50 |
| rtc11 | deco: i was assuming i was behind a wireless router firewall | 22:50 |
| deco | Biovore: what makes it up for not having a firewall in ubuntu? | 22:50 |
| Halitech | rtc11, you don't need a seperate firewall as it is built into the kernel | 22:51 |
| Biovore | deco: only have programs running that you need running.. | 22:51 |
| jhv | you don't need a virus scanner or disk fragmentation program, but if you have windows partitions you can install virus scanner and defragmenter on ubuntu for use on those partitions | 22:51 |
| ghindo | rtc11, There aren't any viruses to speak of with Linux, and the filesystem doesn't really fragment. | 22:51 |
| deco | Biovore: ah ok :P | 22:51 |
| Biovore | if there isn't anything listening on a socket.. you can't hack it via network interface.. | 22:51 |
| === Aero- is now known as dsboy | ||
| ghindo | rtc11, Firewall is debatable. | 22:51 |

| signpost | hi, I've got a two-disk software raid1 that keeps coming up as an inactive /dev/md_d4, constituted of only one of the drives. if I stop that device, then --assemble the raid1 manually, it comes together fine. do I need an /etc/raidtab? | 22:52 |
| Halitech | deco, thats what IPTABLES basically is | 22:52 |
| LinuX2half | Hmmm, if I upgrade to the next version, will the computer be updated to the current version, like say that my mozilla is 2.5 and if I upgrade my computer then will the upgrading process will also upgrade everything in my computer. It also might include every updated programs for the last year that I'm unable to update. | 22:52 |
| deco | Halitech: oh, that's essential all you need right? | 22:52 |
| rtc11 | Ubuntu and linux should advertise these advantages over windows | 22:52 |

| Halitech | deco, its all I use, granted I'm behind a router as well | 22:52 |
| rtc11 | i never knew this until last week when i made the switch | 22:53 |
| deco | Halitech: me too router | 22:53 |
| TuxOtaku | hey, I'm having trouble with wallpapoz, it's not rendering my backgrounds at all | 22:53 |
| signpost | anyone with mdadm or /etc/raidtab wisdom? | 22:54 |
| Halitech | deco, after using Ubuntu and Debian for 3 years I hate even hooking up a windows box to my router until I install an up to date virus scanner and updated definations | 22:54 |
| deco | Halitech: ya i would too | 22:54 |
| rtc11 | why can't someone write a virus for ubuntu? | 22:54 |
| signpost | oh crap, there's an /etc/mdadm/mdadm..conf | 22:54 |
| ghindo | ot! | rtc11 | 22:54 |
| rtc11 | ghindo ot??? | 22:55 |
| Biovore | rtc11: well you have to install it.. about the worse a virus could do is wipe your home directory.. | 22:55 |
| Flannel | !virus | rtc11 | 22:55 |
| ubottu | rtc11: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 22:55 |
| ghindo | !ot | rtc11 | 22:55 |
| ubottu | rtc11: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 22:55 |
| Flannel | rtc11: That link explains a bit about it, the design makes it more difficult | 22:55 |
| Halitech | rtc11, because of the way the system is written it is inherently secure and without root priveledges the most you could do is wipe the home folder | 22:55 |

| jonathancw | bart416: IT shows HPFS/NTFS | 23:27 |

| jonathancw | Its an XPS 730x lol I like those systems | 23:30 |
| kane77 | kenyon, yes, it will, but not for packages that I installed by hand, because they were needed for compilation of some software (the -dev packages), it would be cool if I could somehow do: aptitude install libnotify-dev libxml2-dev --tag osmo | 23:30 |
| bart416 | grrrrrr9_04, don't you mean crappy intel cards >_> | 23:30 |
| Dulak | Professor2: phpmyadmin is just a php interface to mysql, mysqldump is a commmand-line program to dump out databases from mysql, so there is nothing to conflict | 23:30 |
| jonathancw | bart416: its formatted as HPFS / NTFS | 23:30 |
| Halitech | grrrrrr9_04, cheaper and pushed more by ati? | 23:30 |
| bart416 | jonathancw, so you either used wubi or you overwrote the linux partition | 23:31 |

| bart416 | thiebaude, fdisk lists NTFS partitions >_< | 23:34 |
| jonathancw | bart416: Im sorry Im new to this, cut me some slack ? | 23:34 |
| SnakDoc | Plecebo you back ? | 23:34 |
| ProfessorX | Dulak: It just did the backup, where can I find the backup I just made? I didn't specify any locations so what would be the default location? | 23:34 |
| bart416 | well, you're the first person I meet that doesn't know what he did when he installed an OS :| | 23:35 |
| axelpaxel | I can't switch workspace anymore. I've checked in keyboard shortcuts, it's correct configured. But still not working | 23:35 |
| Plecebo | SnakDoc: yes, still no joy | 23:35 |
| signpost | found it; for posterity, it's vol_id /dev/blah1 | 23:35 |
| jonathancw | bart416: Actually, I ran through the menus. IT said it would use the entire disk. I'm wondering since its a mirroring hard drive it didnt do that. | 23:35 |
| Halitech | thats why I prefer the alt install cds, I know *Exactly* what I'm installing and where | 23:35 |
| kenyon | kane77: you might look into the --add-user-tag option for aptitude | 23:35 |
| Dulak | ProfessorX: It puts it on stdout, so it should have just spit a bunch of stuff out to your screen, read the man page for mysqldump | 23:36 |
| grrrrrr9_04 | Halitech, well here is the thing during the dist upgrade everything went fine. i rebooted, and everything was how to say, running but not optimal. i then checked restricted drivers and saw that the usually available ati driver was missing, i then went to my friend google, and typed ubuntu 9.04 ati driver, and saw an article "yey ati finally supports linux completly get the driver here". i downloaded it , ran the *.run fo | 23:36 |
| grrrrrr9_04 | r my proc type, it installed.. and then when i rebooted : it didn't play allong too well :( as in black screen artifacts etc. | 23:36 |
| thiebaude | jonathancw: should of installed the os's side by side | 23:36 |
| kane77 | kenyon, thanks a lot! I will look into it | 23:36 |
| bart416 | jonathancw, well ubuntu's auto partition system isn't exactly known for its great raid support I fear | 23:36 |
| Plecebo | SnakDoc: the invalid module format error makes me wonder if the driver is the right architecture or something | 23:36 |
| soulwarp | I'm having a package error with broken packages that i can't normally fix http://paste.debian.net/40929 | 23:36 |
| ProfessorX | Dulak: Where do I read the man page? | 23:36 |
| bart416 | if you install it on a raid array you need to manually configure the partitions to prevent mistakes | 23:36 |
| grrrrrr9_04 | bart416, long story short, i mett her on a paysite :-/ she is a model :-/ and i am like ... stupid, broke and not the most atractive guy on earth. :P | 23:36 |
| SnakDoc | Plecebo :( ok how you do the manual install ? | 23:36 |
| Halitech | grrrrrr9_04, maybe you need to use the fglrx drivers instead of the ati catalyst drivers | 23:36 |

| Halitech | grrrrrr9_04, I could use the ati drivers until I updated Debian, now I have to use the flgrx drivers | 23:38 |
| ProfessorX | Ok thanks Dulak | 23:38 |
| grrrrrr9_04 | Halitech, what i "found out" was that the x1450 is only supported by the 9.03 driver, and the new xorg wants 9.04 (right? ) | 23:38 |
| InsaneTurnip | Yeah... that is off-topic to Ubuntu... | 23:38 |

| SnakDoc | Plecebo you said you put file in /boot ? | 23:39 |
| Patrickaaaa | Why does an router has to constantly broadcast? | 23:39 |
| grrrrrr9_04 | Halitech, any hints / ideas as to how i can get rid of the restricted drivers ? and get flgrx vack ? | 23:39 |
| Halitech | Patrickaaaa, it doesn't | 23:39 |
| slap_happy | Patrickaaaa: wrong channel | 23:39 |
| bart416 | and if that doesn't work there is a wacom package I think | 23:40 |
| soulwarp | I'm having a package error with broken packages that i can't normally fix http://paste.debian.net/40929 | 23:40 |

| grrrrrr9_04 | coleys ooh, | 23:40 |
| Halitech | grrrrrr9_04, do you mean the ati drivers or the ubuntu restricted drivers? | 23:40 |
| ProfessorX | Daluk: how do I get out of the man mysqldump? I want to type in a different command. | 23:41 |
| Patrickaaaa | Well I'm looking at my wireshark and I noticed my router | 23:41 |
| bart416 | slap_happy, I can't be bothered to actually hold tab for the correct amount of time 40 minutes past midnight | 23:41 |

| slap_happy | bart416: its actually a PDA that comunicates touchscreen location through the serial port with the wacom protocol | 23:41 |

| Patrickaaaa | asking who has XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX ip address | 23:41 |
| ProfessorX | Ok thanks Daluk | 23:41 |
| deco | is there an app in ubuntu to track my daemons running? like apache etc.. | 23:41 |
| Plecebo | the install script is /root/dd/install.sh | 23:41 |
| bart416 | yeah, I see how that might cause some issues slap_happy | 23:42 |
| SnakDoc | plecebo you would also need to decompress it | 23:42 |
| joebodo | deco what do you mean by track ? | 23:42 |
| grrrrrr9_04 | Halitech, i installed the ati drivers and thats where it all went wrong | 23:42 |
| deco | joebodo: i mean that lists the daemons running | 23:42 |
| joebodo | deco ps -ef | 23:42 |
| deco | joebodo: and can stop or start , restart etc.. | 23:42 |
| Halitech | grrrrrr9_04, ok, the restricted drivers should hopefully work where the ati drivers don't | 23:42 |
| Plecebo | right that is done with this: gzip -dc boot/arcsas2.6.18-6-amd64x86_64.ko.gz > /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-server/kernel/drivers/scsi/arcsas.ko | 23:42 |
| joebodo | deco you can use the init scripts to restart services - like /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | 23:42 |
| SnakDoc | plecebo that should be file path /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-server/kernel/drivers/scsi/arcsas.ko | 23:43 |
| deco | joebodo: but it won't be permanent right? | 23:43 |
| grrrrrr9_04 | all i can really do atm is get into the recovery menu and launch root / netroot, the xorgfix etc have untill now not helped . | 23:43 |
| joebodo | deco if you stop a service with an init script it will be restarted on bootup | 23:43 |
| Plecebo | SnakDoc: is that what I did with the gzip? | 23:43 |
| Plecebo | SnakDoc: then: depmod -a 2.6.28-11-server | 23:44 |
| joebodo | deco there's some configuration you can do in Administration->services that will make it permanent | 23:44 |
