[00:51] neilv: I hope you get it, but there's nothing I could do about it? Perhaps you'll have to remove the patches yourself or something as an interim solution. [00:51] jetblast this during a sudo apt-get update or sudo apt-get upgrade ? [00:51] glitsj16: ok [00:51] Bejeezus : After tomorrow I will give some informations about linux ( specially ubuntu ) for some friends [00:52] Bejeezus : It is an ubuntu course free of charge [00:52] SnakDoc i got it when i went to system/package manager. i also got it during the sudo apt-get check [00:52] <^Phantom^> Wait, will that remove all of my KDE dependencies though? [00:52] <^Phantom^> Woah, it will... [00:52] mohammed510: kudos, good luck. [00:52] can someone tell me where " package-manager" its located,, I mean linux dir [00:52] anyone knows why when i start transmission (even if it isn't downloading anything) the net get extremely slow? [00:52] Radtoo: they will just have to go with apache upstream. they are not happy with that idea, especially since the point of ubuntu lts was to have a stable self-contained platform. [00:52] irivolic: if you have noscript you might have to "allow" the site (since javascript is blocked).. in firefox "Preferences/Applications" might also give you some answers.. [00:52] Bejeezus : So , you can say that I am trying to do some nice work for this course [00:53] jetblast i have the file not sure if i could just upload and you could use it or not [00:53] nellmathew: seems that the plugin I'm using is: /usr/lib/swfdec-mozilla/libswfdecmozilla.so I'm not sure if this is the one from the package (I might have installed from another location too) [00:53] <^Phantom^> Why can't I get Dolphin (the gamecube emulator) to run? [00:53] What is the advantage of the /sys/ directory in the linux file system hirarchy ?? any one knows ?? [00:53] SnakDoc the error pops up when i try to sudo apt-get upgrade [00:53] Apple Isight webcam + ubuntu pc any ideas? [00:53] Bejeezus : Where are you from? [00:53] SnakDoc ill try anything you recommend [00:54] irivolic: no that's not the adobe plugin.. you can either change it, or do sudo apt-get autoremove swfdec , [00:55] irivolic: and it'll go back to adobe's by default.. [00:55] neilv: Dunno if "they" are the only ones that think this way. About all major distros ship apache with patches at times, from my experience. [00:55] jetblast any certian place you like it sent ? [00:55] <^Phantom^> Is having this Dolphin file browser gonna mess up ubuntu the next time I boot up? [00:55] my update manager this morning claimed to not be able to comptete updates and suggested a partial upgrade ? [00:55] I close my screens, how do I open them back up? [00:56] SnakDoc doesnt matter..how do you plan on sending it? you can do a file transfer on here [00:56] where is the desktop background picture/path stored? [00:56] anyone knows why when i start transmission (even if it isn't downloading anything) the net get extremely slow? [00:56] !screen [00:56] Screen is a window manager for terminal sessions, also useful over SSH. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen [00:56] irivolic: sorry it's : sudo apt-get autoremove swfdec-mozlla [00:56] Radtoo: normally, we appreciate the patches. unfortunately, they're broken in this case, and we might *have* to use upstream, for the sake of avoiding our server being taken down by a runaway cgi :) [00:57] or i should say, they appear to be broken. debugging hasn't happened yet [00:57] <^Phantom^> Is having this Dolphin file browser gonna mess up ubuntu the next time I boot up? [00:57] can someone please confirm a dist upgrade is normal behaviour this morning ? [00:57] nellmathew: thanks [00:58] nellmathew: autoremove for that package is removing a bunch of other packages too though [00:58] <^Phantom^> Guys I'm really worried now. [00:58] nellmathew: these: dbus-c++-1 libccrtp1-1.6-0 libcommoncpp2-1.6-0 libcppunit-1.12-0 libswfdec-0.6-90 libxalan110 libxerces27 swfdec-mozilla [00:58] irivolic: shouldn't be an issue, guessing no other packages need those packages (they were only used by swfdec) [00:59] wut was the command to get ubuntus restricted extras? [00:59] Snakdoc it wont let me download from you [00:59] changed monitors and couldn't get ubuntu to recognize the resolutions of the monitor biut figured that out and set them in xorg.conf but then couldn't get it to boot/login to teh resolution I wanted... until I figured out teh the online example I found for setting preferred mode was spelt the wrong way. [00:59] BunnyG: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [00:59] BunnyG: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [00:59] nellmathew: to slow :) [00:59] much love [00:59] Snakdoc i get an error no such file or directory (when the directory is there) [00:59] lol :P [00:59] nellmathew: ok thanks [00:59] irivolic: you're welcome [01:00] jetblast just dl to desktop for moment [01:00] can i install ubuntu on a pc, put the hdd in another pc and its working? (correct drivers, correct resolution and so on)? [01:00] ^Phantom^: you don't want any KDE applications at all right? [01:00] neilv: Right. Good catch. And the bug report might help other users / organizations who might have problems. But until you know if it will be fixed I think you're best off just fixing it yourself (you know how to create a .deb?) so you don't have to rely on anyone. :D [01:00] <^Phantom^> I just want to get rid of the one I just installed.

If you can find the exact problem that's likely very useful, eh. :) [01:03] ProfessorX: No, just the first one, as I recall [01:03] if you have multiple instances of screen running you need to specify which you want it to attach or it'll attach the most recent [01:03] <^Phantom^> Will my desktop look and function the same after I did that command? === Paraselene__ is now known as Paraselene_ [01:04] <^Phantom^> Like, after I reboot [01:04] <^Phantom^> sudo apt-get install subversion scons g++ wx2.8-headers libwxbase2.8-0 libwxbase2.8-dbg libwxbase2.8-dev libwxgtk2.8-0 libwxgtk2.8-dbg libwxgtk2.8-dev libsdl1.2-dev nvidia-cg-toolkit libxxf86vm1-dbg libxxf86vm-dev libxext6-dbg libxext-dev libglew1.5-dev libcairo2-dbg libcairo2-dev libao2 libao-dev libbluetooth-dev && svn checkout http://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ dolphin-emu-read-only && cd dolphin-emu-read-only && scons [01:04] ^Phantom^: yeah it should [01:04] most of the time you don't need more than one instance of screen, but if you do it's helpful to give them names using the -s switch [01:04] not -s [01:04] -t === sage_ is now known as SageX === cal is now known as Guest76039 [01:05] <^Phantom^> Okay.

[01:08] UberTaco: what's hard about it [01:08] like it says auto eth0 but how do I access the screen? [01:08] ^Phantom^: http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/wiki/Linux_dependencies - check if your version of scons is > 0.98 also like they suggest (if you have issues with it).. and check the command to run it also.. [01:08] I don't understand this line when I try to screen -r. The line is "Type "screen [-d] -r [pid.]tty.host" to resume one of them." [01:09] Radtoo: it is un-nice. but we really don't want the headache of custom .debs and are not set up to deploy that any better than a .tgz [01:09] ProfessorX: things in [square brackets] are optional [01:09] ProfessorX: first do a screen -ls that will make a list. copy&paste the one you need [01:09] and pid means process id, it's a way of identifying processes that don't have names [01:09] :) [01:09] I've got a 2 ubuntu machines, when I try to acess my laptop via fileshare, in samba networks, It just says "timeout on server adam-laptop" I can't even see "adam-desktop" from "adam-laptop" [01:09] last time i am going to say visit and help me plz [01:09] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1203766 [01:09] knasto: It is most likely located at the .1 address of your IP scheme (so if your IP is 192.168.4.100 it would probably be at 192.168.4.1) [01:09] ProfessorX: there are numerous screen 'tutorials/guides' out there. :) its a progrm worth researcing/reading about.

[01:12] yep. screen is awesome [01:12] irivolic: thats - weird. [01:12] Bejeezus: always have to go hunt down arcane tutorials [01:12] * Dr_Willis adds a few more verys to his suggestion. [01:12] UberTaco: screen is a powerfull program.. you are NOT going to learn all about it by asking basic screen questions answered on 'page 1 chapter 1 of most every screen tutorial' [01:13] Dr_Willis: yeah [01:13] Dr_Willis: erm, wrong target? heheh. [01:13] <^Phantom^> nellmathew: I'm quite confused [01:13] neilv: ubuntu is open source. you have access to the rules file of apache and such. Might just comment out / delete the patch specific stuff from ubuntus sources and just do your deb with that. [01:13] Dr_Willis: no idea why it's always mounting it on boot without the utf8 option [01:14] UberTaco: oh you were adressing Bejeezus :) i thoug you said it as in using a 'adajative' :) [01:14] Dr_Willis: heheheh [01:14] I've got a 2 ubuntu machines, when I try to acess my laptop via fileshare, in samba networks, It just says "timeout on server adam-laptop" I can't even see "adam-desktop" from "adam-laptop" [01:14] good noight people [01:14] <^Phantom^> I tried to work TuxCube but it won't let me 'make' the stupid thing [01:14] UberTaco: had someone in here with the nick of 'Incorrect' - that really caused confusioins. [01:15] neilv: but all is at your own discretion. if you prefer make install or whatever apache uses at this point, go ahead. it just won't be managed the same way everything else is, which - in my experience - is a pain and why most any distribution out there uses a package manager to track files. [01:15] When I do screen -r 23825.pts-8.xx-xx-xxx-xx, my previous screen does not load up. All it does is open a new screen.

It's probably something fairly simple like a routing issue or something... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1203376 [01:31] sagaci: but i am correct the version from the repos is still beta [01:32] now i have an issue with ubuntu - my wireless internet connects and works fine, but when i try to connect through a wired network - the network manager will say its connected and all the settings are correct, but none of the internet apps will be able to use the connection [01:32] if im in the wrong channel please redirect, but -how- do i stop the fh smp client from running on my system? :/ [01:32] EaxEE: i forget... :) thats from an alias ive had in my bin dir for ages... [01:32] how can I track down who made the sox package? the control file? (Pascal Giard) [01:32] EaxEE: it may be a typo.. or some other font info heh [01:32] Does anybody how to get wifi to work on ubuntu? [01:32] Dr_Willis: Fair :) Thanks a lot for the help ^^ Very useful :) [01:33] <^Phantom^> If anyone can get this to work: http://www.dolphin-emu.com/downloads.php?cat_id=2&download_id=77 please let me know what you did thankies [01:33] EaxEE: i tend to just use the -fn 10x20 type info [01:33] Flannel: I can appreciate why that is policy; Ive been on the end of it in the past :) [01:33] sevenseeker: apt-cache show sox should show you who the package maintainer is. [01:33] can someone help me with wifi? [01:33] Flannel: apologies once again [01:33] cyzward [01:33] can you be more specific? [01:33] I am currently using ethernet [01:33] ^Phantom^: http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/wiki/Linux_dependencies - read the 2nd comment.. make sure the scons version is as they require (over 0.98 - check in synaptic), if it isn't then download the 1.1.0 package and run the command to install it.. [01:33] i just noticed that i see my websites in my apache www folder from another computer via my ip is this safe? [01:33] I have to set up a wireelss connection [01:33] sevenseeker: in this case, it looks like the MOTU, you could try asking in #ubuntu-motu if you have a question about the packaging of the package [01:33] linxeh: Oh, it's no problem. We all get frustrated at times. And I only offered to explain because some people don't see the point [01:33] but I don't know how to do that [01:33] EaxEE: http://www.tummy.com/journals/entries/jafo_20050120_180533 is worth reading to learn about the .Xdefaults settings for xterm [01:33] Cyzward: it usually "just works" for me, but sometimes it doesnt, ive found it to be bit wonky, but disabling/enabling wireless from your networkmanager sometimes lets me connect [01:34] ^Phantom^ make sure you have all the "required packages" installed from "details" [01:34] huh - i cant get ethernet working [01:34] Dr_Willis: What does that do? :) Also, I know that I have terminus, since I can -fb terminus but when it's in the .Xdefaults file it says: "xterm: Cannot load font terminus" :S [01:34] Dr_Willis: Thanks :D [01:34] I don't even have wifi options [01:34] I have to change VPN first [01:34] is the driver available? [01:34] yo [01:34] yes [01:34] on which channel can i get help on creating deb packages for ubuntu? [01:34] or even loaded... [01:34] i just noticed that i see my websites in my apache www folder from another computer via my ip is this safe? [01:34] zsquareplusc: #ubuntu-motu [01:35] EaxEE: I recall the terminus font homepage/docs mentioning how to use it.. personally i dont like terminus font much. [01:35] wow [01:35] Dr_Willis: Okay thanks :) Why not? [01:35] <^Phantom^> ./Dolphin: error while loading shared libraries: libbluetooth.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [01:35] theres a propriatory driver section - inwhich it wont load propriatory drivers, unless you specify [01:36] I move a computer from a lower resolution monitor (1024X768) to a high def monitor 1920 X1080 - however the computer does not show the x with the exception of an one inch bar at the top of the new screen - I tried dpkg-reconfgure xserver-xorg but it does not work - can anyone direct what to do [01:36] EaxEE: try -fn ' -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-cp1251' perhaps? [01:36] Dr_Willis: Okay thanks :) Hmm cp1251= [01:36] *? [01:36] EaxEE: im just trying examples ive googled. :) [01:36] deco: Yes. That's what its designed to do. If you have stuff you don't want people to see, don't put it there. OR if you just want that stuff to be available locally (from your computer only) you can tweak apache to do that too [01:37] Dr_Willis: Fair :P [01:37] <^Phantom^> wait, scons will REPLACE make? [01:37] EaxEE: you did INstall both terminus fonts? one for console.. one for X? --> $ sudo apt-get install console-terminus xfonts-terminus [01:37] Dr_Willis: Nope :/ [01:37] ^Phantom^ no it's a replacement... some people still use it, you can have both. [01:38] <^Phantom^> Oh okay. [01:38] Dr_Willis: The nope was for that it didn't work >_< Installing them now :) [01:38] <^Phantom^> Well, I am trying to do too much at once I think [01:38] Flannel: oh ok but will this be crawled by google? [01:38] Dr_Willis: Both is newest version Oo [01:38] hi, my jaunty is very slow on dvd burning [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/31709]. how to solve this? [01:39] EaxEE: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/terminus-font-vs-monospace-vs-vera-sans-mono-445169/ has some .Xdefaults to get terminus as the default [01:39] I need to share NFS via samba... [01:39] How can I do such? [01:39] <^Phantom^> nellmathew: When I try to run dolphin from that 2MB zip I downloaded, I get this: ./Dolphin: error while loading shared libraries: libbluetooth.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [01:39] deco: It's accessible inside the LAN, but unless you do port forwarding on your router, not outside (in most network setups) so, not likely. [01:39] Dr_Willis: Great thanks :D [01:40] Flannel: oh hehe no wonder, i was using a pc that is on my lan [01:40] Flannel: i was scared that anybody could see it [01:40] ^Phantom^: I'm really not familiar with dolphin or tuxcube, but personally I would try to install packages libbluetooth and libbluetooth-dev and try again [01:40] <^Phantom^> okay [01:41] <^Phantom^> Even though I don't have bluetooth? [01:41] * Brad_R is installing ubuntu "inside windows" [01:41] ^Phantom^ if the program requires the packages then yes. [01:41] EaxEE: not that i can get xterm to use a terminus font yet... but... :) its docs to read at least.. make a .Xresources edit it.. use xrdb -load .Xresources try running 'xterm' and see if it changes [01:42] <^Phantom^> Okay [01:42] Flannel: for example vsftp allows computers to login that are not from the lan right? [01:42] EaxEE: --> The available font sizes seen with "xlsfonts | grep terminus". [01:42] Dr_Willis: Okay thanks a lot :D [01:42] EaxEE: and that shows nothing for me lol.! [01:42] deco: Again, only if you set up your router to forward [01:42] EaxEE: heh - perhaps i need to reload the font cache or somthing.. does it work for you? [01:42] Can anyone help me access my virtual server? It's probably something fairly simple like a routing or forwarding issue or something... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1203376 [01:42] <^Phantom^> i've never actually found this "synaptic package mananger" ... where is it? [01:43] Flannel: how would i do that? [01:43] Dr_Willis: I get a long list :P How do I reload it? :) [01:43] Or maybe my gateway is wrong [01:43] EaxEE: for the terminus font - :) good.. i must of not had the X font installed.. so i got none at this time.. [01:43] hey everyone does anyone know how i would turn off the gnome-panel so that it doesn't automatically load? [01:43] Dr_Willis: Yeah :) trying the xresources thingy now :) [01:44] woo [01:44] <^Phantom^> Oh there it is [01:44] fuzzybunny69y: rightclick on it and than delete this panel [01:44] <^Phantom^> nellmathew: apparently I already have the bluetooth stuff installed... [01:44] After days of searching I've finally found a solution to my mobile broadband problem. [01:44] deco, it is greyed out because i only have one panel active [01:45] EaxEE: the way the X fonts work is some sort of server/cached stuff.. so some times it dont see new fonts you install.. untoll you run some command tht i forget.. or logout/back in :) [01:45] fuzzybunny69y: so you don't want a panel at all? [01:45] It seems that even though my provider doesn't require a username and password, NetworkManager won't connect without them. So the solution is just to put nonsense values in the respective fields and it connects. [01:45] Dr_Willis: Yay! It works! Now to get it to use a smaller size >_< But thanks a bunch :D Your help is really really appreciated ^_^ [01:46] deco, yeah I want to turn it off so it doesn't load at all [01:46] fuzzybunny69y: than use a deferent window manager like fluxbox [01:46] EaxEE: i cant get it working here. .:) lol - i may need to log out/in.. but i always use terminator these days anyway [01:46] deco: Is this just for your own usage? [01:47] Flannel: yeah [01:47] EaxEE: theres also a way to set the console to use that terminus font by default [01:47] Dr_Willis: Fair xD But it works flawlessly here ^^ Just using size 12 :) What do you mean? [01:47] deco: It's actually easier to set up sftp then, instead of normal ftp. fewer ports to deal with, and youre more secure. [01:47] terminus is a gorgeous font, i use it wherever i can get away with it [01:47] How can I know what causes a "Destination Host Unreachable" ? [01:47] urxvt*font: xft:Terminus [01:47] Dr_Willis: Like an alias? [01:47] Flannel: oh but can any client connect to it? [01:48] Bejeezus: xft? :) [01:48] EaxEE: its aways saying terminus font not found.. i just installed it.. so that may be my issue [01:48] urxvt -fn Termius [01:48] urxvt: unable to load base fontset, please specify a valid one using -fn, aborting. [01:48] * Dr_Willis checks his spelling [01:48] Dr_Willis: Weird Oo I just made it as the .Xresources then it worked :) [01:49] Dr_Willis: eax.dk/eax_terminus.png [01:49] Can you edit the title of a thread you started on ubuntuforums [01:49] Ok so I have 2 machines. This one, I'm running live disc because I flushed all the iptables on my Jaunty and now it's internet doesn't work. How do I fix it? [01:51] EaxEE: so whats your .Xresources line? or pastebin the whole thing. [01:52] deco: Pretty much. I don't know of any FTP clients that won't also do SFTP, to the end user (you) its identical [01:52] EaxEE: are you an xmonad user [01:53] Dr_Willis: http://pastebin.com/m26d36d64 [01:53] Flannel: oh so what's importent is that the host be setup with sftp right? [01:53] Bejeezus: Yup:) Newly converted [01:53] deco: Right, and it's trivial to do: sudo apt-get install openssh-server and you're done. Just port forward your ssh port on your router (thats 22 by default, and you can change it) === root is now known as Guest44982 [01:53] hello === Guest44982 is now known as jesused [01:54] hello [01:54] EaxEE: got it. :) had to restart the X session to see the new fonts.. err... i recall WHY i dont use terminus.. I find it Ugly with a Capital U. [01:54] sorry im im probblems [01:54] Dr_Willis: Fair :P That's a matter of taste ;) What do you use instead? [01:54] i cant start the x in ubuntu karmic [01:54] in my laptop, after upgrade [01:54] Flannel: oh than i think i also port forwared my router than in vsftp before because i remember i enabled port 22 in its config file so that ment anybody could login righ? [01:55] ? [01:55] hmmm [01:55] Bejeezus: I'm learning it so that I can use it on my multi-monitor setup ^^ [01:55] any help please??? [01:55] Doh.. i logged out of my vnc session.. and it loged me out of my actual X session also. :) [01:55] ahh.. terminus looks MUCH better on a normal X desktop. instead of in the vnc dekstop [01:56] deco: Alright, then you may already be set up to do ftp [01:56] Dr_Willis: XD Fair :P [01:56] Dr_Willis: I really wouldn't know :P [01:56] EaxEE: i tend to use bitstream vera sans mono roman in my Terminator windows.. [01:56] Can anyone help me bridge two networks? [01:56] Flannel: oh i thought i actually had to mess around with my router so just enabling port 22 etc.. is enough to forward a router right? [01:56] well EaxEE good luck. I will be back laters. [01:56] Dr_Willis: Okay :) Never really could get terminator to work could I >_< [01:57] I feel so happy, I'm finally installing UNR on my netbook! === CharlieSheen is now known as Cotton [01:58] hi all [01:59] hi cotton [01:59] hey [01:59] yo [01:59] uo [01:59] Dr_Willis: It's funny how different fonts also have different colors Oo [01:59] hi.

Can anyone give me some advice? [02:09] fosa, write your script and save it there as (yournamehere).sh [02:10] Flannel: Thanks, that helps. But firefox still links to firefox-3.0 [02:10] Interphase, do i need to chmod it to something? [02:10] yes [02:10] linuxguy2009: that can be an issue with moving linux filesystems about. :) user id's can change and goof up ownership. [02:10] you will also need to do 'update -rc (yournamehere).sh defaults' [02:10] that is what actually makes it run on startup [02:11] Dr_Willis: ah yes hehe it will be a nightmare if he tries to use it on a different pc [02:11] no wait 'update-rc.d' [02:11] Interphase, thanks ^^ [02:11] Whats this reiserfs file system in gparted?

[02:17] wait....is there a way to get Ubuntu onto the thumbdrive and ahve persstence? [02:17] Batmanifestdesti: if my hardware can handle it.. i use Ubuntu.. if it is the old box's i use puppy. [02:18] Batmanifestdesti: yes.. you can do a persistatn live-cd type setup on a flashdrive [02:18] ok [02:18] * SCEA is watching 'Bleach - Episode 226' [02:18] I might do that, because .pup files for good software are few and far between [02:18] Batmanifestdesti: theres can be some quirks.. but its doable.. even doable from windows. following the pendrivelinux.org docs. (that works better for me then the usb-disk tool In ubuntu) === MidsummerDawn is now known as MD|Away [02:19] everyone seems to only make stuff for Ubuntu or Redhat, with the occasional Arch [02:19] Batmanifestdesti: depends on the apps. :) [02:19] * Batmanifestdesti had to do some web-digging to find a pup package for Wine [02:19] Batmanifestdesti: im in #puppylinux right now.

[02:20] I just like being able to download stuff instead of google searching and puppy forum searching for a version that works [02:20] hi [02:20] then again, I could just make -install stuff, but I'm a bit of a noob [02:20] Batmanifestdesti: as i said.. i use what the hardware can run. :) [02:21] well, what would you reccomend for a computer that uses parts from 1993-1997? [02:21] and it's a gateway T_T [02:21] Batmanifestdesti: go to #puppylinux - state the exact specs.. and see what we suggest. [02:22] er, I'm not sure of the exact specs [02:22] I got this win98 from my friend [02:22] I have a 3rd-party package that requires libltdl3, but the package is now named libltdl7-dev. How do I tell dpkg that so I can install this 3rd-party package? [02:22] with a pinked-out CRT [02:22] Batmanifestdesti: use 'lspci' and other tools from Ubuntu to discover them :) [02:22] is gnome-terminal --geometry=X100Y100 the correct statement?

[02:23] hey [02:24] or... no, I'm misreading, that is the -dev. [02:24] Harkins: it would be weird that an app would need a -dev file to 'run' [02:24] hm............. [02:24] anyone here used a Linksys BEFW11S4 wireless router? [02:24] Yeah, I was incorrect about that. I guess I don't know what libltdl3 is now provided by.

[02:26] Batmanifestdesti: 'tiny core linux' is also handy for small low end systems [02:26] fosa: :) [02:27] Dr_Willis, Thanks so much, the forums weren't saying anything about positions! [02:27] gnome-terminal -geometry 80x24+30+200 [02:27] Failed to parse arguments: Unknown option -geometry [02:27] Batmanifestdesti: Try DeLi Linux, but this is all offtopic for this chnnel [02:27] try --geometry [02:27] ok [02:27] fosa: aha - that worked. [02:27] Dr_Willis: Ah, I see, the package is now just libltdl7, and this package requiring libltdl3 doesn't know it. Any idea how to tell that 7 meets its dependency? [02:27] * ^Phantom^ gives Picle a Like-Like. [02:27] <^Phantom^> oops [02:27] fosa: gnome-terminal --help is not too helpfull :) [02:28] Why do I get bash: ./configure: Permission denied? [02:28] I'm having some issues with connecting to my company's VPN using NetworkManager. I can only access internal sites but nothing external. Can anyone give me some advice? [02:28] ProfessorX, SUDO [02:28] it gives you SUMO power [02:28] over you computer [02:28] My trash icon has gone missing, how do I restore it? It was in the lower right hand corner (gnome). [02:28] Interphase: I already tried that [02:28] sudo: ./configure: command not found [02:29] cl-newb right click the lower bar and select add to panel [02:29] Dr_Willis, it's not, and it's reference to a 'X' man page threw me [02:29] professorx: is configure set to eXecutable? [02:29] How do I set it to executable? [02:29] chmod a+x file [02:29] sudo chmod a+x file [02:30] sudo chmod a+x configure [02:30] ? [02:30] Which command line is it? you gave me three [02:30] the last one [02:30] Does anyone know how to make a LiveCD out of a custom kernel? === billy is now known as smartasstronaut_ [02:30] ok thanks [02:30] portfog: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log [02:31] is openssh-server like or is a sftp host ? [02:31] server* [02:32] Flannel would you be able to tell me how I can install or make changes to drivers? [02:32] deco: It's a SSH server, and SFTP goes through SSH, so it's also a SFTP server. [02:32] portfog: That page describes it [02:33] Flannel: oh understood [02:33] Flannel Thanks [02:34] Flannel: and i can connect to it with ftp i don't have to use for examply putty right? [02:34] example* [02:35] deco: You'd connect to it through whatever FTP client you were using. If you aren't currently using one, Filezilla is a good, entirely free one [02:36] Flannel: just with an ip right? no fancy publickeys etc..? [02:36] fancy* [02:36] deco: Right. Just like FTP [02:36] Flannel: oh wow than i have no reason to use ftp anymore :P [02:36] Flannel: thanks for all your help [02:36] Can someone help me installing OSS? [02:37] silly question guys, i'm on 8.04 and whenever someone gives me a link via pidgin, it opens up as (http://www.%u.com/) in firefox... [02:37] having my monitor connected to my pci video card is keeping k/x/ubuntu from booting. It boots fine attached to the factory output. Model is nVidia GeForce 2MX [02:37] i downgraded the firefox to firefox 2 [02:39] abbazabba: definitely sounds like your browser settings are wrong. === eddie is now known as Guest41285 [02:40] abbazabba: Check tools->preferences->browser and see if there's anything using %u instead of %s ... [02:41] WAVIN: go to oss4's web site they have a how too there [02:41] good night [02:41] Anyone have any ideas on my monitor boot issue? [02:41] where i can sugest i new feature to ubuntu ?

Im using "gksudo nautilus and tried to make the drive mine instaed of roots.Nothing. Am i going to be forced to use gksudo nautilus every time I want to use the drive at all? === patrick is now known as Guest41059 === mike is now known as DoYouNo [02:48] Can anyone direct me to a chat that has info on Java install for ubuntu jaunty ? I have just gotten online with the laptop, Finally!! [02:48] Radtoo: i don't have anything like that in my preferences [02:48] beenyboyz: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre ? [02:48] Is Radtoo talking to beennyboyz ( me ) ?? I am new to chat. [02:49] uh yeah [02:49] beenyboyz: look for messages with your name prefixed [02:49] okay . swaj says install command lline fasion with sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre . correct? [02:50] beenyboyz: yes [02:50] !java | beenyboyz [02:50] beenyboyz: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository [02:50] beenyboyz: sun-java6-jre is a meta package that should get you up and running [02:50] Hi is the alternative CD necessary to do a installation of Ubuntu on Raid? [02:50] Looks simple enough. Great advice swaj. Thanks. [02:51] On my Acer netbook there's a key with a picture of a little house. How would I bind that to run go-home-applet? [02:51] Also thanks Pici for the chat heads up. [02:53] Anyone with experience with raid? [02:54] There's clearly a bug in bsdgames. I was aboard the Battlestar, went in the small adjoining room behind me, and a woodland elf attacked me. [02:54] lol [02:54] That is certainly not true to the original. [02:55] I am having problems booting k/x/ubuntu when the monitor is plugged into my nVidia GeForce 2 card, but it boots ok with the factory card... any suggestions? Thanks! [02:55] Floops: when i try to connect to the openssh server with ftp it won't work but with sftp it does i thought any ftp could connect? [02:56] Floops: also it asks me for a password which i have no idea what it is [02:56] deco: SSH and FTP are different things. [02:56] sftp is ftp tunnelled over ssh [02:56] deco: If you wish to connect to the server via FTP, the server must have an FTP service running. [02:56] aw.. my startup bash script didn't work [02:57] AndyTim: so i can make it work with vsftp ? [02:57] me, i just use netcat [02:57] deco: I've never heard of vstftp, but if it's a normal FTP service, yes, you should run it. [02:57] Trying to set up samba in jaunty. What does this mean?: "If you are indeed using xinetd, you will have to convert the above into /etc/xinetd.conf format, and add it manually." Or more to the point, how do I do this? A mention is made of itox, which prints out nothing. [02:58] vsftp is a secure ftp client. [02:58] AndyTim: oh ok yeah it is, so how do i make an ftp server in general work with openssh-server? [02:58] sorry.. not client. [02:58] deco: If vsftp means "Very Secure FTP" or somesuch, then it likely does sit behind SSH. [02:58] Server. [02:58] Hmm.. when i full screen a flash video.. it fullscreens to the wrong monitor... [02:58] anyone seen a 'fix' for this annoyance? [02:58] AndyTim: i never had openssh before i tried it,,, so i don't know if it uses ssh by default [02:58] Dr_Willis: I see that issue with games, as well. [02:59] deco: The SSH password is the password of the user who you are trying to connect as. [02:59] AndyTim: vsftpd is traditional ftp. There is no SSH component. [02:59] must say I'm favourably impressed with Ubuntu Netbook Remix on dell mini 9 [02:59] swaj and storm-zen are in disagreement. [02:59] swaj: how do i make it work with openssh-server? [02:59] ? [02:59] AndyTim: Go with swaj. [02:59] deco: you don't need to. [02:59] AndyTim: ah hehe [02:59] swaj: why? [02:59] deco: if you're running openssh-server, then sftp is already on [02:59] I remember something about vsFtp, but not much. [03:00] http://pastie.org/533818 <-- if i set chmod 755 on this file and also ran sudo update-rc file.sh defaults then would it run at boot time? [03:00] storm-zen: not really seen it with games.. i guess some badly programmed games :) [03:00] hm [03:00] swaj: oh so just by having it installed all ftp servers are going through ssh? [03:00] Dr_Willis: No, with 3D accelerated games. === pepito is now known as metal1369 [03:00] I just tried to join #ubuntu-offtopic and apparently I'm banned. [03:00] I find it surprising that I'm banned from a channel I've never visited. [03:00] It's a monitor issue, not a gaming issue. [03:00] deco: short answer, if ssh is running, sftp is up. There's no separate package. [03:00] deco: Anyway, connect with the username and password of the user who owns the files you are trying to get. [03:00] swaj: oh ok thank you [03:00] deco: if you want traditional ftp access, then something like proftpd or vsftpd would do that for you. [03:00] Bejeezus: An elite private club, no doubt. [03:01] ( Well, a driver issue. Not a monitor issue. ) [03:01] AndyTim: ok thank you was a little bit thrown off that i never got a notice of choosing a password [03:01] Maybe I should leave... I seem to be too tired to be coherent. [03:01] deco: On the server, you can set a password for a user with 'passwd' [03:02] Anyone set up samba on Jaunty? [03:02] deco: if password authentication is disabled, you might need to supply your private key to the SFTP client of your choice. [03:02] deco: Or if you are root, you can set another user's password with 'passwd ', where is the user's name. [03:03] hi,could aero glass effect be used on linux ? [03:03] I'm running Ubuntu Server with Openbox & XOrg. What is the best power manager that gives me all features (cpu, ram control etc.)? Thank you [03:03] anybody , where is the terminal window again. I have had it open before?? [03:03] safruhani: Have you seen compiz-fusion? [03:04] beenyboyz: did you look in your systray? [03:04] Never mind, found one. [03:04] beenyboyz: at the bottom of your screen ( or at the top if designed it) [03:04] oh, bash scripts don't need ;'s ? [03:04] Flannel: yes i use it, u say it's possible i think? [03:04] Was in applications accessories! [03:04] safruhani: I'm saying that we've already got those style of effects. [03:04] Im running ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty and in firefox google and other webpages only load partially. How can i fix this? [03:04] fosa: in some places you need ; [03:05] Nevermind. When running 'battlestar' as root, you get an extremely high chance of running into random enemies. [03:05] Running as a normal user works fine. [03:05] Oh yeah and pidgin doesnt work at all [03:05] My bad. [03:05] ?? [03:05] When you set a desktop background where does it copy the image to? [03:05] I think that may have been misinformation. [03:05] thank you all have bye [03:06] I really need help [03:06] foo__: it dosent as far as ive noticed.. [03:06] foo__: it doesn't copy the image [03:06] Does anyone have experience with installing ubuntu with raid [03:06] Didn't it used to, like remember when ubuntu has splash screens it would be like in the same directory wouldn't it? Maybe it changed since then? [03:06] Flannel: the windows are arranged one after other (possible on compiz?) [03:06] Im running ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty and in firefox google and other webpages only load partially.Also , pidgin doesnt connect at all... How can i fix this? [03:07] Or it was like a sym link. [03:08] safruhani: What? [03:08] Does anyone have experience with installing ubuntu with raid [03:08] safruhani: Oh, the 3D cascade thing? I believe so, yes. [03:08] foo__: splash screens are all stored in the /usr/shared I believe, but as far as desktop backgrounds it just links to the current location of the file, if the file is deleted/moved it is no longer viewable [03:08] Flannel: sorry for my english, like this:http://www.cagdaskorkut.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/aero1.jpg [03:08] Can someone help me get a driver working for an Edimax EW-7318USg as per this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7558563 ?

[03:10] IO have an ext USB WD drive that mounts fine in ubuntu however I want it to mount at startup. How do I go about that? [03:10] safruhani: I have no idea, I don't use it myself, but yes, I'm almost certain there's a plugin for that. [03:10] jefinc: The reason I ask is kinda strange. I wanna make it read only (r-r-r) so my sister can't change it!! [03:10] Flannel: i understood, thanks for help [03:10] poor caleb - left befor i could tell him Yahoo broke pidgin.

[03:12] Flats: get rid of "noauto" in that list, it means "don't automatically mount at startup" [03:12] foo__: I'm not 100% sure but I think there is a way to set it to require a password [03:12] coleys: unetbootin just copies a lot of files to the flash drive and a boot loader (syslinux) i recall... [03:12] jefinc: My sister will stop at nothing to change the wallpaper... [03:12] coleys: delete the files.. or reformat it. [03:12] hello all [03:12] Dr_Willis: Ahh, figured. thanks =) [03:12] foo__: not sure what to do there, sorry [03:12] give your sister her own accoutn [03:13] let her change her own wallpaper to her heart's content [03:13] jefinc: np, I'll figure it out. [03:13] nice. Thanks but I still can't mount it now. I think it has something to do with the /media/WD250 What should be where the Wd250 is?

I want to use the whole drive so do I just make a WD250 directory on the root of the HD? [03:16] Flats: No.. you are failing to understand the basics.. you 'mount' a filesystem to a 'mountpoint' the filesystem then 'appears' at that mountpoint [03:16] Flats: no, you make the directory on your hard drive. run "sudo mkdir /media/WD250" [03:16] Flats: so the directory /media/wd250 must exist befor you try that mount /dev/whatever /media/wd250 command.

Or it may be unsupported by linux. with some luck google may give a clue as to if its even supported at all. [03:33] KillGorack: you have to install codecs that aren't shipped with Ubuntu [03:33] Tecna: is she running the desktop version (network manager)?

Do I need to enable pcmcia modules that are already in ubuntu, or will I probably need to download something extra [03:35] ehazlett: I think we got [03:35] Tecna: cool [03:36] Gobbles: see what modules are loaded in the disrtos it works on.. try loading them by hand on the ubuntu system. [03:36] Gobbles: the fact that it works on some of them.. is a good sign [03:37] dr: Ok I will try to figure out what is loading on dsl, kind of flying blind with linux on some things :) [03:37] Gobbles: compare lsmod command output. :) [03:38] dr: thank you, will do === DoYouNo is now known as DoYouKnow [03:39] whu ubuntu?

[04:09] ty [04:09] jonathancw: alternatively, you can keep gnome and install KDE beside it. you can switch between environment on the gdm [04:09] blz: no idea if mplayer can even play midi. theres tons of other midi players in the repos.. but ive never seen a firefox plugin for midi === slaytani1 is now known as slaytanic [04:09] Dr_Willis: yeah, not exactly common. I'll start an ubuntuforums thread, thanks for your help though [04:09] can you have an option to run Gnome or KDE?

Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo [04:10] jonathancw: those linux guys think of everything :) [04:10] My other wonder is that I know that KDE uses less resources than GNOME. Has there been any improvements with Gnome in that respect? [04:10] how would i install kde [04:10] jonathancw: select it in synaptics [04:10] Curly_Q: ive never seen that statement befor..

[04:11] bastidrazor ty [04:11] Curly_Q lokkit isn't in the ubuntu repos but there is a good deal of firewall guis...i've heard shorewall is good.....and i find better performance on my machine with gnome [04:11] man i just got beat at my own game by a robot... [04:11] JorgeJorgesson: i think the flash wiki page has some troublshooting tips. [04:12] Laymansnerd, thanks. Good answer. Dr Willis, thanks for your experience. I always did like Gnome. [04:12] Dr_Willis: what address? [04:12] ty sammyF [04:12] !flash [04:12] To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [04:12] no problemo :-) [04:12] jonathancw: seriously do not remove gnome if you can. KDE4 is perhaps not really what you expect [04:13] jonathancw: thus the "keep both" option [04:13] Dr_Willis: I have Flash installed. No sound though [04:13] lots of issues....sammyF is right [04:13] JorgeJorgesson: there are known Flash/audio issues.. check the troubleshooting tips perhaps? [04:14] Dr_Willis: I understand, where? [04:14] it seems a little better in the karmic koala release though....running it in a virtualbox and it's pretty smooth [04:14] except i can't get my addons to work correctly :-\ [04:14] JorgeJorgesson: none at the link the bot just gave? i think ive seen info there.. [04:14] A few more questions. One is: Has anyone here used Ubuntu as a video server or a streaming audio or video server? [04:15] Okay, I have a bit more info on my problem. [04:16] Dr_Willis: no, none of the same symptoms. I just have no sound. === saulus_ is now known as SauLus [04:16] That would bring me to another question: Is Ubuntu compatible with FLASH streaming .flv and so on? [04:16] dmesg gives me a warning about [drm:i915] issues all over the place... and I have no idea how to correct it [04:16] Curly_Q: yes. to the extent that Adobe's closed source plugin works [04:17] Curly_Q: for videos it seems to work fine [04:17] OK. [04:18] Curly_Q: most of the issues with flash.. are.. well.. adobes fault to a large degree it seems... [04:18] SammyF are there alternative Open Source compatible stuff that rivals Adobe? [04:18] Curly_Q: let me put my asbestos suit on first [04:18] lol [04:18] Curly_Q: HTML5 might be a solution [04:19] Dr_Willis: thanks.....way too much modifications to do to all my machines. Thanks though. [04:19] Curly_Q: but Adobe created/ended in a monopolistic position when it comes to content rich media or whatever it's called [04:20] I have been pounding the pavement on a few ideas. I am trying to work on setting up an internet TV and Radio streaming studio for my School. [04:20] JorgeJorgesson: i have no flash/sound issues on my 5 machines.. I do know theres a package or 2 to try to get flash/audio working better. [04:20] Curly_Q: and sadly, nobody ever read or saw spiderman at Adobe's headwquarter, so the whole "with great power comes great responsability (toward LInux Users)" went past them [04:20] Dr_Willis: I will take it back to XP on those machines that require sound with Flash [04:21] JorgeJorgesson: check the package manager/forums - i recall some simple package you might want to isntall to see if it works. [04:21] JorgeJorgesson: well the alternative is to run windows in a virtual machine for the flash+sound maybe? [04:21] hi, im trying to setup a 9.04 kvm server with pci passtrough, everything is working fine except the pci passtrough, i keep getting this error: http://pastebin.com/m2d4e42ae , seems to me like its missing the pci_stub driver?, now ive googled that this seems to be included in the 2.6.29 kernel, does that mean pci passtrough is not supported on 2.6.28? or am i not seeing anything else? [04:21] nah, they all have windows pre-installed [04:23] I will try ubuntu on those machines again when it gets the sound working. [04:23] I have a question in firefox or virtualbox xp internet explorer either one when a DNS needs too be resolved it TAKES a while it like hangs before loading...yet other computers on the network running XP work just fine load pages fast and dual booting this computer too XP loads pages fast..its like a DNS resolve issue in Ubuntu any suggestions? [04:23] The only problem that I dread is that when servers use VMWare and the like, there is what is called: "Single Point of Failure" Which means that if one thing goes wrong, then, everything else is taken down simultaneously. [04:23] Curly_Q: that's why you build highly available redundant clusters [04:24] JorgeJorgesson: you mean when adobe gets its flash sound working? :) [04:24] Dr_Willis: yup [04:24] Good point Ehazlett. [04:25] JorgeJorgesson: i will repeate. there is some 'flash-sound compatiabilty' type package that some people require.. but i dont know its name. [04:25] Dr_Willis: my client doesn't care if it is Ubuntu or adobe. Ubuntu will not play Flash audio. Plain and simple problem. [04:26] JorgeJorgesson, so your flash won't play audio right? [04:26] JorgeJorgesson, in firefox? [04:26] ratshell: correct....on all machines [04:26] I ran the "check hard drives" option on the ubuntu 9.04 live CD, and it reported there was an error (but didn't say what). How can I run this check from the command line? both fsck and e2fsck don't report any errors (but the install CD reports I/O errors when trying to install ubuntu). [04:27] ratshell: yes, firefox [04:27] JorgeJorgesson, which version of flash? [04:27] 10 [04:28] gsr - sounds like you have erros [04:28] * Dr_Willis googles for ubuntu flash sound problem and gets a few hits.. one of which mentions.... [04:28] $ sudo apt-get install libflashsupport [04:28] JorgeJorgesson: the sound files at freesound.org all play well for me, even multiple ones at the same time. And I'm rather sure it's flash audio [04:28] ecli [04:28] yeah I get audio in youtube and hulu videos with no problems [04:28] gsr - sounds like you have errors on the CD itself. Maybe a burn error or something [04:29] sorry ... wrong windows [04:29] some people seem tofix flash issues with --> $ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [04:29] async: hmm, ok. ill reburn it and try again. Maybe tomorrow, I've been fighting with grub for the last 4 hours [04:30] JorgeJorgesson, do you have libflashsupport installed?

[04:36] ratshell: I've googled and the fixes are very complicated and based on hardware. [04:37] Hello all [04:37] JorgeJorgesson: there proberly is a fix.. but if you want to give up.. go ahead.. Ill stick with linux. the fixs ive been seeing are normally simple. [04:37] ratshell: no simple generic solution [04:37] Dr_Willis: I'll stick with Linux as well....just my clients [04:38] could someone please explain how i can install an application?

[04:42] JorgeJorgesson, I didn't think it was default I thought you had too install flashplugin-nonefree [04:42] Dr_Willis: Redhat linux 10 <=> fedora 10 ? [04:42] I normally install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' package to get flash working. [04:42] hiep: no idea. I dont do redhat/fedora.. [04:42] Hi all. Anybody have time to answer a quick question? [04:42] Redhat linux 10 <=> fedora 10 ? [04:42] you guys could be right.....all wireless and stuff installed sort of by default [04:42] I just let it rip [04:42] hiep: perhaps ask in #redhat [04:43] Scunizi: righto, cheers [04:43] JorgeJorgesson: theres no flash plugin installed by default. You can install ubuntu-restricted-extras that will install flash and java and other parts. or install the specific flash package that downloads/installs flash from the adobe site. [04:43] JorgeJorgesson, Okay try this JorgeJorgesson uninstall the flashplugin-nonfree and install flash this way and see if it fixes it.....http://newtoubuntu.wordpress.com/2009/04/25/ubuntu-904-no-sound-with-flash-videos/ [04:45] All right, I'll just ask then and see if someone bites. I have Jaunty installed on a Jetbook and my HDD light is blinking every second, on the second, like clockwork. Can't figure out what's accessing the drive with that kind of regularity. Any ideas? [04:47] ratshell: ok, how do I check to see what version I have installed on these machines? [04:48] JorgeJorgesson, of flash? [04:48] ratshell: of course [04:49] What does it mean when X Server fails to start and says No SCreens Found? [04:49] It seems I installed flash non free [04:51] jonathancw: the drivers/X server some how is missconfigured. [04:51] JorgeJorgesson: about:plugins in Firefox Address Bar [04:52] new to Ubuntu, went dual boot XP pro on drive 0, Linux drive 2, redid XP (not pro) install and now GRUB still shows XPpro and won't load XP. Must boot with Ultimate Boot CD to access Windows - how does one configure GRUB on hard disk to regain dual boot? Also is it possible to have 2 linuxes on 2nd drive and perhaps a 3 way boot? I'ld delete Windows but have a 8mm camcorder tape converter to USB and only Windows drivers. [04:52] Should say Linux drive 1 not 2 sorry [04:53] mobi-sheep: File name: npwrapper.libflashplayer.so [04:53] Shockwave Flash 10.0 r22 [04:53] MIME Type Description Suffixes Enabled [04:53] application/x-shockwave-flash Shockwave Flash swf Yes [04:53] application/futuresplash FutureSplash Player spl Yes [04:53] JorgeJorgesson: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:54] k_graham: you could confiure your menu.lst however you want to boot whatever you want. but you may need to learn a bit about grub and how to edit the menu.lst to do so. [04:54] k_graham: there are instructions for redoing grub. I'll have ubottu give you a link.. as for the # of linux versions. yes. you can have many however if you're just playing with the others then I suggest running virtualbox (download from their site) and install the other os's there.. easier and less complicated then keeping track of partitions. [04:54] !grub | k_graham [04:54] k_graham: 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 [04:54] k_graham: the default menu.lst has example entries for booting windows on different hard drives. [04:54] JorgeJorgesson: You have your version there. [04:55] mobi-sheep: ok, but that does not make my sound work [04:55] menu.lst [04:55] When does ffx 3.5 hit the repositories? [04:55] !sound | JorgeJorgesson [04:55] JorgeJorgesson: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [04:55] b-f: when they are done testing it. [04:55] Would someone please help me to get my wireless USB adapter driver compiled? I have explained my issue here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7559032 [04:55] mobi-sheep: sound works fine. Flash sound does not [04:56] Scunizi: and that is estimated to be when? [04:56] b-f: there isn't an estimate.. [04:57] ratshell: If I do as you ask, this "breaks" Ubuntu. It will not be updated properly [04:58] ratshell: you are offering a work around [04:58] ratshell: correct? [04:58] JorgeJorgesson, all this does is install flash from the download instead of the flashplugin-nonfree it won't break or stop any updates [04:59] JorgeJorgesson, if it does not work you can simply remove the plugin and install flashplugin-nonfree again..but it won't break anything [04:59] No, but ubuntu will not update the installed software [04:59] JorgeJorgesson, correct but its the latest version 10.0 so until the next version comes out..yeah then it won't update [04:59] ratshell: ok, thought so. [05:00] ratshell: not an issue. I think it best to take them back to supported XP [05:00] JorgeJorgesson: if you mean the newly installed flash. then you're correct because it was manually done.. however you may not need to for quite some time. The version in the repo doesn't get updated until the next release of ubuntu and only if there is a new version that's been tested [05:01] what is virtualbox for? [05:02] Okay I had a question earlier anyone got any idea..why DNS resolving takes so long in Ubuntu 9.04....xp on same laptop and other on the network loads pages no problem..ubuntu hangs when loading pages..any idea? [05:02] wizzo50, running a virtual os inside of Ubunut..like run vista inside ubuntu and so forth [05:03] Do you download virtual and have to install it first? If so, how you do that on ubuntu? [05:03] Look, they want sound in Flash. Plain and simple. I have to make sure that it is updateable and servicable. These fixes are not. Sound in Flash is broken in Ubuntu 9.04. I will take them back to XP until fixed. [05:03] ratshell: no. but i agree. its slow to start getting pages for me aswell [05:03] wapko, yeah it like hangs once it finds the page it seems okay and fast but while it like searches for it hangs [05:04] Thanks regards Grub info - 1st time using Chat, not sure how you focus on only 1 conversation, hope I can manage to get GRUB set correct again. [05:05] JorgeJorgesson, <--- has flash installed in Ubuntu on another machine with the flashnonfree-plugin works fine on that machine so guess each expierence is different [05:05] k_graham WHat is grub? [05:05] ratshell: I have over 32 machines with which sound does not work in flash. [05:06] JorgeJorgesson, hmmmm just checking you installed all the updates right? [05:06] ratshell How you download virtual in Ubuntu? [05:06] wizzo50, sudo apt-get install virtualbox [05:06] ratshell: yes [05:06] Why not just transfer the sound card that works with Ubuntu on one machine and see if it works on the other machine. Perhaps there is an IRQ conflict or something like that. [05:06] sudo apt-get install virtualbox [05:07] JorgeJorgesson, thats what I don't get it works fine over here for me yeah its stutters on some sites but not had any problem with the sound [05:07] ratshell: wizzo50 that might be sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose for the repo version but it doesn't have usb support if its needed [05:07] ratshell: and I see a ton of problems with a google search. All the same problem. [05:07] ok [05:08] ratshell: hey, Linux cannot be all for everyone.....not meant for the general masses is all. [05:08] JorgeJorgesson, well thats were we would disagree lol [05:09] JorgeJorgesson true [05:09] ratshell: ok......well, when these machines work, I will alter [05:09] ratshell, I saw Grub being talked about. What is Grub and how is it ran? [05:09] JorgeJorgesson, in some parts its not for the masses but in some parts it is so its kind of a open subject [05:09] Check your BIOS settings as well. Most people overlook these simple things. [05:09] wizzo50: grub is the boot loader that give you a menu when you start ubuntu [05:09] wizzo50, grub is your bootloader the thing at the beginning that allows you too dual boot between OS's [05:10] Oh, ok [05:10] I am asked like Ubuntu or WIndows [05:10] wizzo50, yeah thats grub lol [05:10] wizzo50: thats the initial boot menu - done by grub.. yes... [05:10] ok [05:11] ratshell: when it matches Windows pre installed configuration, then all will be well.. I don't care that it is bought or forced or whatever. I am an end user. It works. [05:11] I am still learning on this. I had to reinstall my Ubuntu. I was having Errors when it was loading. [05:11] jorgejorgesson you know rugratt ? [05:12] I received a disc from Ubuntu so I installed it from that this time instead of a download [05:12] how do i make a file that executes a command when opened? [05:12] Ok, time to change the machines back.... [05:12] Zopiac: youmake a executable script/text file. [05:12] Zopiac: example -> 2 lines.. #!/bin/bash (next line) xterm & [05:13] Dr_Willis: i tried making a text file that had the command in it and using 'chmod +x', but it didnt work. [05:13] Zopiac: save to a file. (call it teststuff.sh) set it to be 'executable' (chmod +x teststuff.sh) and there ya go. [05:13] oh ok, i forgot to save is as sh [05:13] Zopiac: the extension does NOT matter. [05:14] oh [05:14] Zopiac: the chmod +x does. :) [05:14] but i did that [05:14] Zopiac: the first #!/bin/bash line is proberly needed (in most cases also) [05:14] how are you trying to invoke it Zopiac? [05:14] Zopiac: the gnome file manager may handle .sh and executable 'text' files differntly. the shell wont. [05:14] oh i got it now [05:14] Zopiac: i recall it just running.sh files.. and .txt it asked what to do [05:15] welll by text i mean empty file [05:15] Hey all, I popped in earlier with a sound complaint. I think it was ziroday that directed me to something on ubuntugeek that solved PART of my problem. I can now record audio using Sound Recorder, but I still can't get any audio in recordmydesktop or any playback in audacity. Suggestions? [05:15] ratshell: all is back and users happy. So am I. [05:16] does anyone experience problems using Ventrilo on wine? [05:16] Zopiac: ive heard of a lot of people with wine.ventrilo issues.. see the wine app database perhaps for tips [05:16] what's a good app for modifying mp3 info? [05:17] i was using banshee but that doesn't seem so good... [05:17] ra* When installing the Virtualbox, there was an error in it that read this: Processing triggers for man-db ... [05:17] Setting up virtualbox-ose (2.1.4-dfsg-1ubuntu3) ... [05:17] * Starting VirtualBox kernel module... [fail] [05:17] Setting up dkms (2.0.21.1-0ubuntu3) ... [05:17] * Running DKMS auto installation service for kernel 2.6.28-13-generic [ OK ] [05:17] wizzo50: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [05:17] racarter, id3tool [05:17] can't modify more than one file at a time and I think it is not altering the mp3 file itself? [05:17] thanks [05:17] it's in the repositories [05:17] racarter: easytag, or audio tag tool [05:17] does it have a gui? or command line? [05:17] Dr_Willis: yeah i guess i should have checked that in the first place...thanks tho [05:17] racarter, id3tool is cli [05:18] anything with a good ui? [05:18] racarter: easytag, or audio tag tool both are GUI programs [05:18] hello? [05:18] !ask | vtrg535 [05:18] vtrg535: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [05:19] whatever [05:19] i have one. has anyone tried usb-to-vga with ubuntu? [05:20] ratshell I get a fail error when installing VirtualBox.. Does that make it not run right? I pasted it in PasteBin [05:20] is this place for chatting? [05:20] vtrg535: no [05:20] if not then why are there 1000+ people? [05:21] wizzo50, can I see the pastebin link? [05:21] ask a ? vtrg [05:21] !ubuntu [05:21] Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com [05:21] ok [05:21] whats a populated chat server [05:21] vtrg535: for Ubuntu Support. [05:21] http://paste.ubuntu.com/209443/ [05:21] kk [05:21] vtrg535: this is a support channel.. for chatting go to #ubuntu-offtopic [05:21] does anyone know how i can use a .bundle file? [05:21] thanks, been looking for something [05:21] vtrg535: this server has 1000's of channels. try ##linux if you want.. or other channels suggested or #puppylinux or #linuxbabes [05:21] =] [05:22] k [05:22] wizzo50, yeah that will fail but it will still install [05:22] Do I need to re-install it? [05:22] wizzo50, no it should of installed still and be in your accessoires in your applications menu [05:22] ok [05:23] I often wonder. When people ask questions here on this channel, I wonder what type of and configuration of hardware are people having with their installation and accompanied with their problems? Many people use vulcanized hardware and never tell what they are using in order to get good support. [05:23] Curly_Q: yep. when one can 'standardize/limit' hardware - it makes support much more easier.. (note apple's take on that) [05:23] Curly_Q: please leave my pro audio sprectrum alone! it has feelings. :( [05:23] lol [05:24] spectrum too [05:24] hi, how do i tell what wifi card my computer has and what drivers linux is using for it? [05:24] Dr Willis good point. [05:24] Hey, anyone knows how I may get ubuntu server's console to display foreign characters correctly?? [05:25] Hey all, I just moved a vmware ubuntu server to another computer, loaded on same version of vmware player, now my networking is gone. What should I be looking at to fix this? [05:26] One main issue with Ubuntu is that perhaps in the BIOS settings the PLUG & PLAY settings could be an issue because Plug and play is a Windows hardware issue. Try experimenting with that when sound or video issues come up. [05:26] Does the Linux version of TweetDeck work with Ubuntu? I tried downloading it and nothing happened. I wasn't prompted with anything after I clicked the link [05:27] hi, how do i tell what wifi card my computer has and what drivers linux is using for it? [05:27] MBD123: yes. you need to install adobe air first [05:27] * Dr_Willis shudders at the mention of Adobe Air. [05:27] deww: Oh, it doesn't do it automatically? Okay! [05:28] Dr_Willis: what exactly is adobe air.. in a nutshell? === perl is now known as Guest6954 [05:29] How you install TweetDeck on here [05:29] Flatulence :) [05:29] Scunizi, flash for create desktop applications [05:29] hi [05:30] Or FLASHulence. hehe [05:30] unop: ah. k.. nothing I'm really interested in [05:30] Scunizi, well, it's more than flash really - it also uses html, javascript, ajax, etc - so that air applications can communicate with servers on the web [05:30] How do you install TweetDeck on Ubuntu? [05:31] Yeah! Like "Doubleclick" [05:31] wizzo50: See above conversation between deww and me [05:31] Scunizi: adobe flash packaged into running 'stand alone' applications that are written in flash form what little iused it. [05:31] Scunizi: and it does some very weird things.... [05:32] ok [05:32] anyone know how to make firefox/flash using a different sound device? [05:32] Dr_Willis: sounds like the latest wizbang wanna be the latest and greatest technology.. [05:33] Scunizi: You got it.... [05:33] the built-in soundcard on my laptop doesn't work, so i have a usb sound device [05:33] racarter: i saw a forum thread on that topic.. earlier today [05:33] most things seem to work with that except firefox. i cannot get sound from youtube for example [05:33] what forum? did they have an answer? [05:34] racarter: the ubuntu forums.. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130384 [05:34] racarter: no idea. i ws googing for someone else with a similer issue.. [05:34] To install Adobe Air, you type it like this: sudo apt-get install adobe air [05:35] Any word on when firefox 3.5 will be released to the ubuntu (jaunty) repositories? Thanks [05:36] nope [05:36] wizzo50, that wouldn't work -- well it would but it would try and install two packages - 'adobe' and 'air' which don't exist [05:36] the dev's don't like to make promises [05:36] MBD123 To install Adobe Air on Ubuntu, do you type it like this: sudo apt-get install adobe air [05:37] wizzo50: Please stop that [05:37] Stop what? [05:37] adobe air is not int he repos last i looked. [05:37] wizzo50: Giving incorrect information to people [05:38] * Dr_Willis looks again... [05:38] I don't know what your talking about flannel [05:38] adobeair1.0 - Adobe AIR - err.. thats old.. i think.. real old [05:38] Flannel: I think he was asking a question [05:38] I am just new to this Ubuntu [05:39] wizzo50: What did you switch from? [05:39] for adobe air - i had to download/run an installer app from the adobe air web page.. then it installed and updated itself [05:39] Windows XP [05:39] wizzo50: Same here. Did you get the wiggly windows and the desktop cube all set up yet? [05:39] http://get.adobe.com/air/ adobe air 1.5 [05:39] ok Dr_Willis. I'll try that [05:40] no [05:40] wizzo50: close all package managers befor trying to install adobe air [05:40] What is Wiggly and the cube? [05:40] ok [05:40] wizzo50: even tho adobe air is a 'installer' program. it actually uses the package manager in the background. [05:40] wizzo50: You have been missing out. If you have time you should try and get them all set up [05:40] ok [05:41] wizzo50: The cube allows you to switch through your desktops with what is essentially this big cube, but you can change it to a circle if desired [05:41] oh yea! [05:41] Indeed... I love my 'cube deformation :D [05:41] bloated eye candy :) [05:42] wizzo50: The wiggly windows make it to where you drag a window and it shakes around [05:42] And you can sort of "peel" down the corner of a maximized window [05:42] Also good is "3D windows" [05:42] So, then do I go to Firefox website to download them 1st and the Adobe Air? [05:42] they pop out away from the cube when you pull back [05:43] wizzo50: What you'll want to do is right click on your desktop and click change desktop background [05:44] wizzo5: Wait, nvm, you're doing something else [05:46] Hi how do i tell what driver linux is using for my wifi card? [05:46] hello.. who uses here krdc? [05:46] SmoKeyCastle: lsmod [05:47] thanks te_ === wet-chan is now known as wet [05:47] what does Adobe Air actually do? [05:48] irad: it lets you run program written for adobe air.. [05:48] any interesting program? [05:48] *programs [05:48] irad: google is your friend [05:49] I just installed it using apt-get install krdc via ssh.. but I can't RDC the machine remotely.. [05:49] ok how do i work out using lsmod which driver is used for wireless? [05:50] SmoKeyCastle: What wifi card do you have? [05:50] I dont know [05:50] SmoKeyCastle: lspci [05:50] its an inbuilt one on my laptop [05:50] SmoKeyCastle: lspci [05:51] 09:01.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd R5C832 IEEE 1394 Controller (rev 05) [05:51] wait no [05:51] anybody here uses krdc remotely connecting the machine.. kindly PM me.. thanks a lot [05:51] SmoKeyCastle: lspci | grep -i wireless [05:51] 09:01.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd R5C832 IEEE 1394 Controller (rev 05) [05:51] Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61) [05:51] this one rather [05:52] !anyone | rhineheart_m [05:52] rhineheart_m: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [05:52] Dr Willis On that Adobe Air, I got it downloaded with Firefox but what do I use to open it with? That is what it is asking me when I run the download file? [05:52] All you in the US have a happy 4th. [05:52] thanks! [05:52] SmoKeyCastle: The one that says Wireless. I should have told you to do lspci |grep Wireless [05:53] ok.. this is it.. what else do I need to configure after successfull installation of krdc remotely via ssh? So that I can connect to it [05:54] SmoKeyCastle: So your wifi card is Intel 4965AG [05:54] yes [05:54] hi. i actually do not know how to start GKRELLM, i have installed it and all the plugins, but i do not find it in ubuntu menu's:D [05:55] if anbody know what it is:) [05:55] hey, dumb question.. fedora does it.. I mean the ability to drag and drop an application (window) from one screen to another.. in ubuntu you have to open in one or the other.. but it has to stay there.. how can I enable the ability to drag windows from one monitor to the other? [05:55] joining [05:55] hey [05:55] not sure of that makes sense [05:56] What is the short command to start typing a user name on here? [05:56] KillGorack: your option for the setup is incorrect.. twinview might work better for you.. if it's nvidia then run nvidia-settings to make the change [05:57] hey wasup? [05:57] nvidia X server settings? [05:57] [05:57] wtf? [05:57] KillGorack: yes [05:57] Dr? [05:57] I'm there now... what checkbox?? [05:57] * Scunizi thinks wasup sound like the cousin of ketsup [05:57] WTF WAT IS THIS WAT THE HELL [05:58] WTF [05:58] WTF [05:58] totalgamer14: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [05:58] commands [05:58] ok,sorry [05:58] anyone familiar with GKRELLM [05:58] ? [05:58] Whats GKRELLM? [05:58] its a system monitor [05:58] KillGorack: typically it's actually a drop down box.. it's been a while. [05:59] any of chu guys know how to use blender? [05:59] don't know if its still being updated though [05:59] totalgamer14: this is for ubuntu support not blender [05:59] totalgamer14: chat and offtopic questions can be done in #ubuntu-offtopic [05:59] DR?? [05:59] not sure.. it's not popping out at me.. ;0) I'll have to log in as root to save whatever.. ;0( [06:00] FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!! [06:00] KillGorack: or start nvidia setting with sudo [06:00] i though it was for adjusting fan. it also have a plugin especially for dell laptops i heard... :( could you help me with my problem mate? [06:00] I found the twin view checkbox.. [06:00] how do you do that? [06:00] check it? [06:01] how does one start the nvidia settings with sudo? [06:01] help? After downloading Adobe Air and running it, its asking what to open it with. What do I open it with then? [06:01] KillGorack: you might have to click the advanced tab [06:01] KillGorack: from the terminal [06:02] yea.. I figured that, what is the command? I'm sorta new [06:02] KillGorack: sudo nvidia-settings [06:02] wow that's awesome [06:03] so i am testing out different situations with my wireless settings via CLI. Why is the device eth and not wlan?? [06:03] KillGorack, use gksudo nvidia-settings instead [06:03] too late ;0) [06:03] KillGorack: as unop said.. gksudo for graphical programs [06:03] ANy help here [06:03] ahh ok [06:03] hi~ possibly stupid question, but perhaps someone knows... will the netbook remix work with non-atom processors? specifically, a ULV core 2 duo? x86 is still x86, yea? [06:04] KillGorack: it avoids possible yuck-y-ness [06:04] wizzo50, don't ask without saying what you need [06:04] I download Adobe Air and it is a AdobeAirInstaller.bin file. How do I open that? [06:04] KillGorack: that's a technical word.. :) [06:04] enneract, sure, it is cpu independent [06:04] hehe I seen its tech - i - ness [06:04] wizzo50, are you familiar with the command line? [06:04] wizzo50: ./AdobeAirInsstaller.bin [06:04] is there other way to remote desktop administer ubuntu aside from KRDC? [06:04] wizzo50: chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin ; sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin [06:04] no [06:05] mobi-sheep, gksudo [06:05] unop: awesome, thanks - the system reqs specifically say atom, so I wondered if there was some weirdness there [06:05] rather than just a general estimation of horsepower needed [06:05] unop: sudo. It's not GUI. [06:05] how does that work with the compiz.,.. still not sliding from one screen to another.. just rotating from one workspace to antother [06:05] mobi-sheep, it is a GUI [06:05] wizzo50: Yes as mobi-sheep said use sudo [06:05] wizzo50, the graphical way to do it is to find the bin, right click and properties.. set to run as executable and then open it [06:05] all i need to know is where GKRELLM is located in the ubuntu OS, the configuration, i hopefully can manage on my own. any help, in any form of direciton, greatly appreciated. i always get help here:p [06:05] KillGorack: you might try turning off compiz [06:06] aww.. [06:06] I'm using xfwm4 as a WM but compiz replaces it with metacity look and ignores my xfwm4 theme, why is that? [06:07] leaving [06:07] can someone explain the lack of use of wlan? why do i have eth as my wifi device? [06:07] is there any form for "programfiles" folder in the linux system, where i could find a sort of "excecutable" ? [06:07] mralexandro, /usr/bin [06:07] mralexandro: use whereis to find it [06:08] Out_Cold: When it's fully supported it shows as eth0 or eth1 [06:08] Out_Cold, it's probably the way the driver has named the wireless interface -- it's nothing unusual [06:08] Out_Cold: Doesn't really matter, right...? [06:08] te_, i realize it operates the same but just curious as to why there is no more use of wlan.. [06:09] makes me rethink every time i try to do a command.. [06:09] Out_Cold: Just simplicity. [06:09] Ok, I have a quick question. Is there a messenger service compatible with Ubuntu that supports video chat? [06:09] skype [06:09] Out_Cold, you can have it renamed if you really want. but do you? [06:09] no i don't care that much.. [06:09] MidsummerDawn: ekiga (already installed) [06:10] doesn't pidgin support video on a couple protocols? [06:10] just switched distros [06:10] you are a F---NG genious! thanks mate:D:D [06:10] Where do I find that Scunizi? [06:10] enneract: nope [06:10] mralexandro, i know... i try [06:10] MidsummerDawn: should be under applications> internet [06:10] Out_Cold: From...? [06:10] yea.. no dice for video with pidgin [06:10] te_, started on slack lol [06:11] MidsummerDawn: ekiga is text voice and video.. sip complient.. there are a couple others in the repos but I don't think they do video.. ekiga also has a windows client available. [06:11] Out_Cold: Good for you... Yea I use slack too. They're all good. Fedora etc.. [06:11] Scunizi: I have Dell Video Chat and Pidgin. [06:11] File Operations Transfer keeps hanging up. [06:11] How can I kill it? [06:11] te_, as much as i learned from it... i am not a huge fan [06:11] MidsummerDawn: dell video chat for linux? [06:12] quick question. how does snes emulators run on ubuntu ps3? i just got 9.04 installed and wireless working. just wanna know if its worth installing the emulator... [06:12] I bought my mini from Dell, I'm running Ubuntu [06:12] Adola, try Alt + F2 and type in xkill and click on your window [06:12] shit wrong furm. [06:12] MidsummerDawn: might be a rebranded ekiga or something.. [06:12] Out_Cold: I'm a huge fan. I'm about to install Yellow Dog on my son's PS3, looking forward to that too. [06:12] sorry for swear [06:13] te_, i tried compiling on my laptop.. was a LOT of work that i couldn't always get [06:13] Out_Cold: slackbuilds does it for you. [06:13] i think that if i had done it on a tower, it might have been easier [06:13] there is an actual #ubuntu-ps3 channel i posted that to [06:14] mobi sheep When I run AdobeAirInstaller.bin I get this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/209461/ [06:14] Out_Cold: Anyway, Ubuntu is easier and has very awsome package management. [06:14] yes i seen.. [06:14] and almost all out of the box [06:15] Scunizi: I have Ekiga..but I can't find it unless I go to Add/Remove Programs [06:15] Out_Cold: Yes, everything's already compiled/built for you. Very nice. [06:15] MidsummerDawn: does it say it's installed? if not install [06:15] wizzo50, you are not in the folder you need to be.. [06:15] ok, I'm a total noob - reading a writeup of getting ubuntu working on my tablet, and apparently 'fglrx 8.600' doesn't support the radeon R300 chipset which it uses, and the alternative driver has no 3D acceleration abilities. is it possible to roll back to an earlier version of... fglrx? something about the older xorg version? it is mentioned in passing, but not very clearly [06:15] It's installed [06:15] wizzo50, try cd tofoldername [06:16] midsummerdawn: have you looked at -> http://live.gnome.org/Empathy [06:16] te_: ubuntu for ps3 works great. I just tried it for the first time. it was flawless. YDL with enlightenment is awesome. but i prefer the package system of debian/ubuntu [06:16] yo [06:17] yes.. the package/deb system is a godsend [06:17] maxxist: Good to hear, I might change course. [06:17] i installed kde while having gnome and i forget the name of the package i installed, i want to get rid of it [06:17] big mistake [06:17] i hope i dont have to reformat again [06:17] MidsummerDawn: open a terminal and type ekiga.. it should start.. if it does then you might want to right mouse click "applications" and choose edit.. go through the menus to find it and put a checkmark next to it. if there is one there already remove it and then redo/replace the check mark.. it should be visible then [06:17] What program displays keyboard events? [06:17] Rob235: What package? [06:17] Rob235: did you install those packages in Synaptic [06:17] Rob235: kubuntu-desktop [06:17] te_: even my wireless worked out of the box. [06:17] the main kde package [06:17] Rob235, you probably installed a metapackage if you installed KDE [06:17] maxxist: I'm really looking forward to it. Going to get a mouse and keyboard tomorrow. [06:18] Rob235: So you don't want KDE? [06:18] i thought it was kde-desktop but kubuntu maybe [06:18] correct [06:18] !puregnome | Rob235 [06:18] Rob235: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal [06:18] err! What program displays Multimedia key events? [06:18] maxxist: The HD in this one is 80g. How much of it will be free space? [06:18] te_: the only thing I want to get working are my bluetooth keyboard and mouse next. oh and the ps3 controllers would be nice too. [06:18] with all my gnome stuff kde wont work with it [06:19] maybe if i just create a new user for kde [06:19] te_: i installed a 160gb in my ps3 when i bought it. [06:19] Rob235: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome [06:19] thanks [06:19] Thks Out_Cold Then what is the short command to type your user name that you would be responding too before you ask a ? so you don't have to type it out or mistype it? [06:20] !tab | wizzo50 [06:20] wizzo50: You can use for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [06:20] te_: but I dont think it was a necessary upgrade. the original 60gb would have been fine. i dont think i am close to using 60gb yet. [06:20] wizzo50: Type "Out" then use tab. It'll auto fill in for you. [06:20] ok [06:20] wizzo50, tab is a linux user's best friend.... next time you are in the command box, try typing cd De + tab [06:20] I'm thinking I should get another HDD ... I believe I will. [06:20] ok [06:21] maxxist: How much is used by the game system? [06:21] maxxist: We just got ours. [06:21] te_: i dont know exactly how to tell. I know I only gave 10gb for the otherOS [06:22] do you still have to do a weird boot to get into the ps3? i though a friend of mine had to trick it to go linux.. [06:22] how much hdd capacity does the netbook remix use? [06:22] hey does anyone here use tuxguitar? im trying to figure out why i have no sound in it [06:22] Where would I find the Video Manager? I want to install my webcam. [06:22] glicks, do you have sound in other apps? [06:22] Out_Cold: there seems to be a menu item now to boot back to XMB. [06:23] Out_Cold: I understand that you just hold the power button down for 3seconds to boot linux, and just punch it to boot to game. [06:23] maxxist, what about booting into linux? [06:23] oh.. [06:23] maxxist: is that true? [06:23] yes Out_Cold [06:23] that would be alright [06:23] Out_Cold, i think its specific to tuxguitar [06:23] Out_Cold: yeah that part is lame. gotta boot from the settings menu. [06:23] Does anyone know of an apt source to get Blender 2.49a for Ubuntu 9.04? The default sources only have Blender 2.48 [06:24] glicks, you should check your docs and make sure that tuxguitar is using the same sound app as you.. ie: pulse or alsa [06:24] maxxist: Did you do a backup of the game OS? [06:24] Hello? [06:25] Spudster: just curious.. does the newer version offer a feature that's not in the repo version? [06:25] te_: no i did the partition when i first put the hard drive in. I knew I was going to try linux on it one day. [06:25] Scunizi: Yes, it has some more advanced scripting options. [06:25] MidsummerDawn, did you try plugging it in and seeing if it runs out of the box? [06:25] is firefox 3.5 officially released now? [06:25] ubuntu is the best os in the universe [06:25] Rob235: yup [06:25] Spudster: you could check www.getdeb.net but don't hold your breath.. you might have to build it from source [06:25] It's a Philips webcam. I just plugged it in and nothing happened. [06:25] Can I run: ssh -X netbook vlc [06:26] thanks [06:26] Rob235: yes, for most platforms... [06:26] maxxist: Oh yea, you had a spare HDD anyway so, was not an issue. [06:26] ssh -X netbook vlc , watch movies rendered remotely? [06:26] MidsummerDawn, do you have any apps to use it with? try installing cheese [06:26] Scunizi: Thanks, I'll try it [06:26] moving an ubuntu vmware image to another computer is kicking my ass, the network interface will not work anymore. I have googled for an hour and tried things but none are working, anyone have experience with doing this? [06:26] out_cold : i have an xps m1330, and unlike everyone else i have the opposite problem, i want my fan to spin more often and cool down the system more than the bios want it to. is there any linux software i can do that trough? i just tried gkrellm, but it is more of a monitoring software i think [06:26] te_: yeah. I use the original 60gb now in a external enclosure for backups and such. [06:26] Out_Cold: How do you open the Widgets that someone was telling me about earlier [06:27] maxxist: That's handy, good use for it. [06:27] 1. movie.mpg on netbook 2. speakers on netbook. 3. from desktop ssh -X netbook vlc 4. watch movie on desktop widescreen, with audio coming from netbook speakers. Possible? [06:28] is there a version of eSobi for ubuntu linux? [06:28] noric: thats a really cool idea for watching in bed, hope its possible [06:28] mralexandro, i haven't used any apps like that before... i use a hard wired switch to control my fans.. (multi-speed settings) [06:28] te_: the ubuntu ps3 ports server is slow to send package updates. [06:28] wizzo50, umm widgets for KDE?? [06:28] Gobbles: thanks.. that's the idea =P [06:28] !find esobi [06:28] noric: wow.. the netbook speaker must be good :) [06:28] Package/file esobi does not exist in jaunty [06:28] Out_Cold, oh ok, i just thought this was the simplest thing to do, but i have spent quite some time now, guess it is one of those advanced funtions:D [06:28] maxxist: Really, why is that? [06:28] Scunizi: desktop has no speakers, just headphones. I want to lie on the couch with netbook next to me and watch widescreen =P [06:29] maxxist: Oh, you mean for the original game os? [06:29] What program displays multimedia key events? [06:29] oh i was wondering i like it for articles sometimes [06:29] mralexandro, if you really want to learn your system and functions as such.... there is a vast and nearly unlimited supply of info at your finger tips.. [06:29] yes [06:29] noric: AH! .. i'd be interesting if you could get it to work [06:29] te_: i dont know. but its going to take about 4 hours to do my updates [06:29] so is firefox 3.6 where firefox 3.5 final left off? [06:29] http://www.alteringtime.com/features/lists/?p=newbiephrases [06:29] mralexandro, most times it means late nights and lots of coffee [06:30] te_: actually i was talking about ubuntu/ps3 ports server [06:30] jep:D [06:30] Anybody here know how to list keys in command line? (Got no GUI). [06:30] eSobi is where i get info for new computing info [06:30] Rob235: no they split before 3.5b3 [06:30] maxxist: Oh ok. ..Did you use the standard Ubuntu insstall CD? [06:30] Out_Cold, i have searched alot, and i have found that, there is billions of articles, about the opposite problem:) that the fan was always on in ubuntu etc... [06:30] oh ok [06:31] maxxist: Or DVD?...? [06:31] mobi-sheep: What do you mean by "keys"? [06:31] te_: yeah the 9.04 -ps3 one. [06:31] mralexandro, are you trying to boost the cpu fan or the tower fans? [06:31] why isnt 3.5 supported (no ubuntu icon in synaptic) [06:31] bullgard4: Signing Keys. [06:31] How you install TweekDeck on here? [06:31] maxxist: Oh so there is a spcial Ubuntu for ps3, I didn't know that. [06:31] !ff35 | Rob235 [06:31] Rob235: 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 [06:31] there is only one fan in this laptop. it is cpu, gpu and tower fan in one:D Out_Cold [06:32] Rob235, all it means is that the ubuntu icons are 'safe' and 'friendly' [06:32] ok [06:32] te_: yeah there is a ps3 specific build. [06:32] hello [06:32] how can I upgrade breezy ? [06:32] i have an old system that I'd like to upgrade.. [06:32] maxxist: Very good. I'll use it for sure. Is it Gnome? [06:32] !upgrade jazzanova [06:32] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [06:32] mobi-sheep: What is a 'signing key'? [06:33] jazzanova: you gotta be kidding? you'll have to reinstall .. there is no upgrade path for breezy.. hopefully you have a seperate /home [06:33] te_: yes gnome. but there is an xfce one also. [06:33] bullgard4: It looks like this --> sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0x0000 etc. [06:33] scunizi.. [06:33] maxxist: Are you using gnome? [06:33] mralexandro, my laptop gets a bit hot too.. but i don't know of any apps to control speed.. [06:33] te_: yep. it seems quick enough. [06:34] maxxist: I see no reason to use xfce, it is a VERY powerful system. [06:34] jazzanova: if you have a seperate /home download and burn the latest version or 8.04 LTS and install .. just don't format your old /home and you're data will be intact [06:34] te_: the lack of accelerated video sucks a bit. === cWex_iMutZz_ is now known as neurounz === ce_metal_cord is now known as CaTz_MOUtZ [06:34] hi, i want to remove all the kde apps but keep amarok, how to do that/ [06:34] maxxist: Gnome has come a long way in the last couple years, it is very good and feature rich. [06:35] bullgard4: I take it you never added a repo? [06:35] te_: yeah i loves gnome. [06:35] , well i will check it for both of us then. will let you know if i find any. do you have a dell as well? [06:35] maxxist: Is it Nvidia? or..? [06:35] Out_Cold: How you install TweetDeck on Ubuntu? [06:35] damn... i'm just a simple learner myself :op [06:35] and yes... dell insiron [06:35] te_: it is nvidia. but Sony locks access to accelleration. [06:35] *inspiron [06:36] maxxist: Really, ... that is a shame. [06:36] wizzo50, is tweetdeck in the repos? [06:36] whatever for, I wonder [06:36] mobi-sheep: I did add repositories to my Ubuntu in the past. [06:36] hi , my friend install ubuntu dual boot with window 7 and her window 7 wont work , it says boot loader corrupted. i search through internet and it only teach how to fix ubuntu boot loader only , anyone can help me? [06:36] maxxist: So you just use the opensource nv. [06:36] ? [06:36] Out_Cold: repos? what you mean by that? [06:36] wizzo50, He means the Ubuntu repositories [06:36] wizzo50, repository... or synaptic package manager... [06:37] no [06:37] wizzo50, it's how you should install any apps you want to use.. [06:37] good, i think i will find something today or tomorrow, will let you know [06:37] te_: there is supposedly soon to be a work around available. i dont know if its a myth though [06:37] there is a so called i8krellm, plugin that is supposed to add fan controll to krellm on dell's [06:37] i just have to figure why i get the error, proc file missing [06:38] maxxist: Ok, will watch for that. ...It is a very awsome device. We just got it a couple days ago. [06:38] mralexandro, how did you install the plugin? [06:38] wizz: Maybe that version of the bootloader (grub?) isn't recent enough to recognize Windows 7? I'm not too sure how the bootloader detects existing OSs, though. [06:38] synaptic package manager:D [06:38] no wait that one i did trough the univers [06:38] windoze 7 is the new release? [06:38] setup [06:38] I have a semi not related question. I just installed VirtualBox so I could use Windows XP to play certain games. Can someone point me to some sort of tutorial for sharing files between the host and virtual machine. The internet isn't helping so well right now. [06:38] apt get something [06:38] te_: i bought mine when they first came out. it has been a wicked fun system to own thus far. and tinkering with linux on it makes it even more entertaining. [06:39] Out_Cold: Was looking at YellowDog and appears to be very active, releases are only about 8 months apart. [06:39] monday: the vbox site has their manual there with good info. also #vbox [06:39] Alright. Thanks. [06:39] Out_Cold: I'm downloading it as we speak. [06:39] Has anyone had issues with the Jaunty installer crashing while preparing the partition? [06:39] te_, i'll have to check it out on the VM [06:39] hiiii [06:40] if i install "fglrxinfo" (through command "sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx"), will it mess up with my NVIDIA drivers currently installed? [06:40] Spongeloaf, you should verify the checksum [06:40] Did that. [06:40] hi my mouse is stuck on ubuntu (laptop mouse) can I repair or I reinstall once more ? [06:40] MrPiracy: do you have 2 video cards installed? [06:40] Out_Cold: Oh yea, you can use VM, especially with that really big drive. [06:40] Scunizi, nope [06:40] MrPiracy: fglrx I though was for ati [06:40] te_ you are talking about on the ps3? [06:40] Scunizi, just one, i am trying to fix an error when lauching SecondLife [06:41] Scunizi, oh [06:41] MrPiracy: what's the error? [06:41] Scunizi, "window creation error" [06:41] Out_Cold: Yes [06:41] Genius314 , erm , but it is window 7 problem , ubuntu done fine with boot loading [06:41] Out_Cold, you are so lucky!!! it is for inspiron and latitude, says nothing about xps! :/ [06:41] mralexandro, you can always try it out.. [06:42] SOS !!! [06:42] hello! [06:42] hi [06:42] tweaker25: what's the problem? [06:42] Out_Cold, well but i have and i get error, so now i checked the synaptics package, and in description it says inspirion and latitude pc [06:42] MrPiracy: is compiz active? if so turn it off and try again [06:42] someone can explain why my mouse is stuck on linux, it was working [06:42] mralexandro, well i suppose i'll go see if it works on mine lol [06:42] I can't use linux like that [06:42] I've currently installed Ubuntu on my PC. Now i would like to install windows as a second os, so i can dualboot. The other way round it's easy, but with ubuntu installed first, how do i install windows? [06:43] is there a good tutorial? [06:43] tweaker25: What kind of mouse? [06:43] tweaker25, you try another mouse? [06:43] laptop mouse [06:43] Scunizi, yes, it is ... let me try again, hold on [06:43] Neremor: have you considered virtual box? [06:43] I don't have another [06:43] tweaker25, it's a touch pad? [06:43] wizz: So the error is after Windows has started booting? I don't know, then. I haven't gotten a chance to try Windows 7 yet (although I've heard great things about it) [06:43] yes [06:43] tweaker25: They are cheap. [06:43] hi.. anyone knows why my 'processors' option is grayed out in VirtualBox? [06:43] It was working and It still work [06:43] haha , thx anyway [06:44] I'm stuck on windows for now ... [06:44] vise: maybe because your running a 32 bit version of ubuntu? [06:44] tweaker25, you can check out mouse preferences in system preferences.. [06:44] 3rd tab should be 'touchpad' [06:44] I can't go there [06:44] learn to use the KB [06:44] Hi - I have jaunty with the regular firefox and minefield 3.6 - now links in thunderbird do not open either browser any more - how to fix please? [06:44] i want to play games... i tried a virtual box, but with only 1GB Ram it's is even buggy for only working [06:45] tweaker25: Why not? [06:45] so i have to install it on an own partition [06:45] tweaker25, try Alt + F1 [06:45] Scunizi, What has Symmetric Multi processor got to do with 32 bit/ 64 bit? I have 2 cores (core 2 duo) and I think i should be able to utilize them.. [06:45] is there a way to uninstall and repair the mouse driver ? [06:45] I DID IT [06:45] Scunizi: I DID IT :D [06:45] OK OK [06:45] noric: tell how, im interested [06:45] Video on widescreen, audio on netbook [06:45] vise: good point.. his is a memory issue. [06:45] Out_Cold, please let me know how it works:D [06:45] k [06:45] 1. [06:45] hi [06:45] noric: cool! you should write up a how to and put it on the forums [06:46] Scunizi, 3 gb ram [06:46] man I will lose all my moded ubuntu settings [06:46] I am having ubuntu 8.04 and nokia 5700.. is there anyway to use my cell phone to browse the net???? [06:46] Neremor: then after you reinstall windows you'll have to redo grub [06:46] tuxguitar is the greatest program [06:46] vise: he said he had 1 gig and vbox was buggy [06:46] banshee is pretty sweet too [06:46] via connecting it with my laptop [06:47] glicks, you figured out the sound? [06:47] Stringz, Its somehow possible by setting up a proxy over bluetooth and do it.. I tried but it seems you have to do a lot of research on that on net.. [06:47] 1. either desktop or netbook can host. 2. launch vlc, file -> wizard, stream to network, select file, HTTP, click through. 3. launch vlc on desktop, open network stream, host:8080. 4. launch vlc on netbook, open network stream, host:8080 [06:47] vise: I like vbox.. use it all the time.. [06:47] I have file.mpg on netbook, so I host from netbook [06:47] Scunizi, k.. and #virtualbox seems dead.. No ones answering... [06:47] tweaker25: You do not seem all that interested in fixing your problem.... [06:47] mralexandro, what was the package you tried for the fan speed? [06:47] @stringz make sure your plan allows what you want to do, it can prob be done, but u dont want a $250,000 phone bill [06:47] yea Out_Cold did not have a midi player installed :) [06:47] I have client vlc reading stream on netbook and desktop. [06:47] netbook plays audio, desktop plays video [06:47] wise, can you give me some pointers...? [06:47] when using aptitude to install any package I get lots of "insserv" warnings and the installation fails...It starts with "Setting up ufw (0.23.3) ..." and then I get the warnings...any one seen something like this? [06:47] when I try to boot ubuntu my mouse can't move ... [06:47] Scunizi, Which is your host? Can you set the number of processors in VirtualBox 3.0.0? [06:48] ass and siang muanya [06:48] vise: not sure.. hang on .. I'll look [06:48] I'm not a code junky, you have to know [06:48] tweaker25, you might have poor mouse settings.. as such... there is a lot of GUI shortcuts to use to get around the mouse and check settings [06:48] Out_Cold, i8krellm [06:48] plugin for krellm [06:48] late [06:48] Stringz, Im not sure for ubuntu.. But for windows theres this software called 'HiiSi'.. Read their concept and see if you can search somthin similar for Linux distros... [06:48] tweaker25: If it can't move then tell it nicely... [06:48] tweaker25, alt + f1 for example will open the menus at the top.. [06:49] Is there a way to destroy my mouse settings ? I could access my files on windows [06:49] how do i disable the effect where when a window is max'd or min'd it has the black outline shadow? [06:49] tweaker25, tab moves between options in dialog boxes... spacebar selects options.. [06:49] ok i am not even going to try anymore with him.. [06:50] vise: nope. 3.0 won't allow changing the number of processors.. there is the option to change from 1-32 but it's greyed out. [06:50] thanks mralexandro [06:50] WHen I download Adobe Flash Player, which Version do I select for Ubuntu? .deb [06:50] I don't to use the keyboard, I want to delete the mouse settings file so it will reset to basic [06:50] pidgin had a mem leak. When i disabled the msn accounts, it crashed with the following in the syslog: Jul 3 22:34:17 u01 kernel: [223736.057491] pidgin[2882] general protection ip:7f17055439a0 sp:7fff1040f6b0 error:0 in libglib-2.0.so.0.2000.1[7f17054f8000+c3000] [06:50] ideas? [06:50] Out_Cold, i want to hear how awesome it is:D [06:50] Scunizi, Ugh! There is no documentation on it either.. Help says you can change.. :( [06:50] tweaker25, deleting files does not "reset" anything [06:51] dragon_ are you running the latest version? [06:51] @strings call your cell phone provider and ask them point blank about what you want to do, I love working around that shit too, but they will bend you over in a second if you dont do it just right and know for sure [06:51] Apollo2366: yes, 2.5.8 [06:51] wizzo50 add medibuntu repository the in firefox apt://ubuntu-restricted-extras [06:51] !info pidgin [06:51] pidgin (source: pidgin): graphical multi-protocol instant messaging client for X. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.5.5-1ubuntu8.2 (jaunty), package size 507 kB, installed size 1616 kB [06:51] then [06:51] vise: maybe if I was running 64 bit it might make a difference === p|s is now known as postscript [06:51] Scunizi, Why would 64 bit make a difference.. Bit width and number of processors don't relate.. [06:52] tweaker25: What is medibuntu repository? [06:52] which is the mouse settings file, I will put my backup file on it [06:52] dragon_ well then I don't know what to tell you... Unless you want to hunt down the leak and fix it yourself? =) [06:52] !sources.list [06:52] The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories [06:52] vise: just an idea that the feature is tied to actual processors [06:52] read that !!! [06:54] ubuntu chat and ubuntu-fr chat have a so different supybot it's hard for some peoples why the bots don't act with the same codes ? [06:55] 32 bit or 64 bit makes no difference to me but a question i have is will ubuntu be able to utilize new cpu that i think windows 7 will use? [06:55] * tweaker25 is wanting to know which files are the mouse settings to restore old settings [06:55] Hi! I am looking for an Ubuntu equivalent of Launchy: http://sourceforge.net/projects/launchy/. Any ideas? [06:55] Scunizi, sorry, how do i turn it off? [06:55] Scunizi, compiz that is [06:55] linux: elaborate.. what new cpu.. and did you know linux works on more arcetecturs (sp?) then windows? [06:56] zini: gnome-do maybe ? [06:56] tweaker25, search google.. [06:56] MrPiracy: system>prefrences>appearance> and the last tab on the right [06:56] wapko: Never heard of it, but I will have a look. Thanks. [06:56] hellp [06:56] linux : 32 bits is more easy, 64 bits is little harder but windows 7 can work as dual-boot with linux [06:56] my firefox is not saving any history or bookmarks [06:57] zini, i use awn which is like the mac icon bar.. [06:57] i can't even go back to a pevious page [06:57] me too:D [06:57] with the osx theme [06:57] zini: let me know if you like it. it also has a dock that can be enabled, if your into that sort of thing. [06:57] i dunno what the osx looks like.. i made it my own lol [06:58] Scunizi, ok, did this and the error is the same ... "window creation error" [06:58] what's a non-M$ alternative to Gnome-Do? [06:58] MrPiracy: bummer.. have you checked the forms? [06:58] Scunizi, what forms? i am a newbie [06:58] dragon_: gnome-do is a non-M$ alternative [06:58] dragon_, "Alt-F2" [06:58] Scunizi, wanna see what i got in the terminal window? [06:59] dragon_: There's a Microsoft alternative to Gnome-Do? [06:59] Scunizi: it involves "mono" [06:59] MrPiracy: you gonna pastbin it? sure [06:59] Out_Cold: nice one [06:59] Genius314: ha ha [06:59] Scunizi, http://pastebin.com/m4ef33a06 [06:59] * Scunizi hears the mono controversy starting [06:59] !mono [06:59] Sorry, I don't know anything about mono [07:00] ubottu+1 [07:00] Sorry, I don't know anything about 1 [07:00] Out_Cold, did you figure it? [07:00] How do I fix this error: "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)"? [07:00] can't find the GUI.. is it CLI only? === nicolas_ is now known as Guest68897 [07:00] when using aptitude to install any package I get lots of "insserv" warnings and the installation fails...It starts with "Setting up ufw (0.23.3) ..." and then I get the warnings...any one seen something like this? [07:00] Omar87, did you sudo first? [07:01] Out_Cold: Yes, I did. [07:01] wapko: It is exactly what I need. Thanks, again! [07:01] Omar87 two apps that use synaptic at the same time ... do it one by one ... [07:01] Omar87: another package manager running? [07:01] zini: yw :D [07:01] MrPiracy: ok.. just off the top of my head it has something to do with the 64 bit version of kde that you're using.. that is 64 bit might be the issue.. I haven't looked in a while but does 2ndlife have a 64bit binary? [07:02] I have an Atom 330 motherboard with integrated Intel graphics, running Ubuntu 9.04. When using the GMail AJAX web interface, I have *extreme* lag when trying to label messages. I click the "Labels" button for the dropdown, and one thread goes to 100% CPU utilization (1/4 total - 2 cores w/HT) for like ten seconds and then the list finally appears. What's going on? [07:02] anyone one running Ubuntu in VirtualBox? [07:02] mralexandro, now this looks interesting [07:02] oh yeah:D [07:02] oops [07:02] (Firefox) [07:02] singletasking is the new multitasking man !!! [07:02] Xerran2, I have earlier [07:02] Scunizi, not that i know of, i just downloaded it from their website ... but i used it from Hardy with no probs [07:02] not sure how the plugin works yet.. [07:02] Scunizi, hardy 64bits [07:02] ok [07:02] Xerran2: ubuntu, linux mint, win2kpro etc.. [07:03] MrPiracy: do they have a forum for help? I'd try there. [07:03] Xerran2 in a VM outch you loss the best [07:03] !virtualbox | Xerran2 [07:03] Xerran2: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [07:03] Scunizi, besides i am not on kde [07:03] MrPiracy: why does it mention it in the pastebin? [07:03] Scunizi, i have no idea [07:04] MrPiracy: that's a place to start looking.. [07:04] Xerran2: what's your question? [07:04] VM is good for old windows and mac os but not for linux or recent windows os that you could run native [07:04] tweaker25: why not if you're experimenting.. v. 3.0 supports compiz [07:05] Scunizi, should i try to run it from KDE instead? I have it installed [07:05] tweaker25, depends what your running on [07:05] I have Ubuntu installed in VirtualBox already. I just need help installing the vboxadditions [07:05] Xerran2: AH HA!.. that's a trick.. [07:05] cause it will still be less better than native [07:05] i can run win 7 just fine on my machine and it feels just like a real install [07:05] Xerran2: I'll give you my paypal account :) [07:06] lol [07:06] a VM of windows on linux, I could understand to run some apps but native is way better [07:06] im trying to resize a partition in gparted but it fails when e2fsck says the disk is mounted, however the disk is not mounted and does not show up when i run 'mount' [07:06] only reason i ever boot windows up anymore is for games [07:06] Xerran2: first you have to tell vbox to mount the vboxadditions which you probably already have.. now open a terminal and cd into the "drive" or cdrom that holds the binary.. then run it from there. [07:07] graphics support still lacking in vm's [07:07] Xerran2 > ubuntu1501.com check for how to use Virtualbox there [07:07] chat ama aq donk [07:07] ok thx [07:08] <_ayn_> hi [07:08] tweaker25, there are several reasons why one would prefer to install a VM instead of a hard install.. one being to test out multiple OS's without the need of reformatting or resizing many partitions [07:08] joshthecoder: I haven't tried it yet but vbox v3.0 supports direct x 8/9 I believe [07:08] !id | CaTz_MOUtZ [07:08] CaTz_MOUtZ: join ke #ubuntu-id untuk membahas ubuntu dalam bahasa Indonesia [07:08] <_ayn_> quick question, where is the kernel located in Jaunty? i need to reboot but i dont see anything in /, i want to make sure the kernel is in there [07:08] but don't expect a miracle Xerran2 a VM is good to test settings but not for 3d use even with 3d support you split the power in half [07:08] tweaker25, and considering you can use pagefiles for VM partitions, you can simply make new partitions without affecting old ones [07:08] joshthecoder: VB supports Open GL, and the SVN has a pretty nice ...That otherone..whatever th other one was called. [07:09] _ayn_: check /boot [07:09] hi [07:09] :) [07:09] Just installed Eclipse. The documentation is missing. Is this because (a) it's so new that nobody has written any doco, or (b) the Ubuntu packagers assume that everyone will be using gcc? [07:09] unfortunately most games use directx :\ [07:09] Out_Could I have enough space to spare, I'm not cheap [07:09] Ok, I made a folder for NFS file transfers, if I try to move too much data out of it, file operations freeze...Any ideas? [07:09] i'll have to give vbox 3.0 a try and see how the directx support is [07:09] <_ayn_> dragon_: i checked, there is a memtest86+.bin, is that it? [07:10] <_ayn_> dragon_: it's a really small file though [07:10] _ayn_: there should be vmlinuz, initrd etc. [07:10] <_ayn_> nothing [07:10] I have some VM too but for real stuff not to try a game that won't work well in a VM [07:10] 32 bit Jaunty install dvd (downloaded .iso, forgot to md5sum) keeps hanging during partitioning. Tried the 64bit .iso, md5sum is good, but the burnt dvd "failed to boot." [07:11] <_ayn_> dragon_: i want to bounce the instance coz motd saids so, i did an apt-get upgrade and i want to bounce it, but it doesnt look like the kernel is there, how weird [07:11] joshthecoder: DX support on Vbox 3 is good, or so I've heard, you have to install the Guest addon's in safe mode, or so i've heard. [07:11] im trying to resize a partition in gparted but it fails when e2fsck says the disk is mounted, however the disk is not mounted and does not show up when i run 'mount' how can i fix this [07:11] Adola: that's what I've read as well. [07:11] _ayn_: sudo apt-get install linux [07:11] Adola, is dx support included in the open source edition? [07:12] I'm getting VERY SLOW file transfers using a usb2.0 drive, anyone knows what may be causing this? [07:12] <_ayn_> dragon_: dpkg -l | grep -i linux didnt show anything [07:12] <_ayn_> dragon_: is it possible that apt deleted the kernel? [07:12] anyone with experience: do you think a system with 333mhz and 256MB ram running ubuntu server will be powerful enough to run around 10 low traffic websites? [07:12] how can i edit the partitions on my hda? [07:12] is it possible to block someone from msging you in xchat [07:12] joshthecoder: the ose version. probably not. [07:12] CaTz_MOUtZ, stop spamming! [07:12] mralexandro: /ignore [07:12] VM for games wow !!! someone forget sudo apt-get intelligence [07:12] Gobbles: It'll be aggravating to use it, but if you stick to the command line you'll probably be OK. But adding more RAM would be a cheap way to fix things [07:13] can someone tell me how i can edit the partitions on the device that is currently running (/dev/hda)? [07:13] _ayn_: hard to believe [07:13] anyone with experience: do you think a system with 333mhz and 256MB ram running ubuntu server will be powerful enough to run around 10 low traffic websites? [07:13] until you have an nvidia quadro ... [07:13] <_ayn_> dragon_: maybe coz this is xen so there is no kernel? im confused... this is an ec2 instance [07:13] Neremor: you can't you have to unmount it. [07:13] Neremor: A blowtorch? A hammer? [07:13] Neremor, unmount it and edit it. [07:14] Gobbles yes [07:14] Gobbles: It'll be aggravating to use it, but if you stick to the command line you'll probably be OK. But adding more RAM would be a cheap way to fix things [07:14] im trying to resize a partition in gparted but it fails when e2fsck says the disk is mounted, however the disk is not mounted and does not show up when i run 'mount' how can i fix this [07:14] tweaker25: now you're just being combative.. stop === ReggtLove is now known as Dreamglider [07:14] Hey, I'm getting the error 'modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/modules.dep: No such file or directory' on install attempt... any ideas? [07:14] _ayn_: it'd be a good idea to ask the others [07:14] yes but i cant unmount it because it is the boot partition from which ubuntu is launched [07:14] <_ayn_> dragon_: messed up [07:15] <_ayn_> dragon_: another slicehost instance we have doesnt have shit in /boot either [07:15] Neremor: then you have to use a live cd. [07:15] Does ubuntu have any tools such as FAI for auto installing an OS via PXE? [07:15] _ayn_: probably the new ubuntu standard [07:15] <_ayn_> dragon_: weird thing that i have no idea where the f it is lol [07:16] <_ayn_> dragon_: kindda reluctant to bounce it when i dont know where the kernel is u know :) [07:16] _ayn_: haha [07:16] <_ayn_> dragon_: we're gonna bounce the slicehost instance, coz we dont use it [07:16] <_ayn_> dragon_: and see if it come sup [07:16] _ayn_: yea that's a good idea [07:16] ah that sounds good. [07:16] thanks [07:16] goodbye [07:16] I'm getting the error 'modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/modules.dep: No such file or directory' on install attempt... and I just verified that modules.dep is there....

[07:17] enneract: did you upgrade the kernel without rebooting? [07:17] question: how do i get rid of those new message popups [07:17] fresh install [07:17] I cannot find that file, what does I do ... [07:17] enneract: did you just install updates? [07:17] hello, anyone knows a command to detect an external monitor? I plugged a monitor to my laptop, but it is not detected in the configuration display settings menu [07:17] as in, I'm trying to install from newly downloaded disc image [07:18] enneract: when does that message come up? [07:18] nw-b: what kind of video card? [07:18] nw-d > xorg in the doc of the site [07:18] anyone know? [07:18] as soon as I select the 'install' option, then a ubuntu loading splash comes up, and eventually I get a busybox prompt [07:18] @etfb it is an old laptop and I want it to do it, my only fear is that when google crawls it hard that it will time out. I am talking mysql, apache2, php database driven websites.. mostly worpress sites though. If I run wp-supercache will that help? [07:18] Scunizi, I think it must be those intel embedded video cards. It is a laptop. How can I know the video card? [07:18] of (initramfs) [07:18] outch intel [07:18] nw-b: lspci | grep vga [07:19] enneract: Ubuntu 9.04? [07:19] anyone know how i disable new message popups? [07:19] yes, netbook remix [07:19] åñòü ðóññêîãîâîðÿùèå ? :) [07:20] Gobbles: Caching will always help. So will judicious use of robots.txt. [07:20] Scunizi, does not show anything [07:20] I have an Atom 330 motherboard with integrated Intel graphics, running Ubuntu 9.04. When using the GMail AJAX web interface in Firefox, I have *extreme* lag when trying to label messages. I click the "Labels" button for the dropdown, and one thread goes to 100% CPU utilization (1/4 total - 2 cores w/HT) for like five to thirty seconds and then the list finally appears. What's going on? [07:20] vise quits [07:20] enneract: are you booting off a CD or usb key? [07:20] nw-b: try just lspci or sudo lshw [07:20] what files/folders could I restore in my home without losing my apps settings ? [07:20] usb hdd [07:21] enneract: ah. I had a similar problem I think booting 9.04 Ubuntu off of a USB key, but Kubuntu worked fine. Don't know about netbook remix, though [07:21] anyone know how i disable new message popups? [07:21] I can try it off a CD when I go home, I suppose, I just got all excited over support for my tablets digitizer finally, heh [07:21] hey [07:21] Supposing I wanted to port a package to ubuntu -- can anyone estimate a timeline on when it might actually be included in the repo? [07:22] enneract: what model is your tablet? [07:22] dell lat xt [07:22] enneract: ah, with the ntrig digitizer? [07:22] yea [07:22] I have one of those :) pen works, touch is funky [07:22] qe2eqe: you can create your own ppa on launchpad and then ask on the dev list for how to's [07:22] anyone know how i disable new message popups? [07:22] Scunizi, 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device [07:23] I was reading a writeup, suggesting that the touch was working arguably better than vista with a couple patches [07:23] although, have you found any way to get 3D accl. working? [07:23] enneract: do you have a link? I've been trying to get the touch working but with no luck [07:23] http://www.mayrhofer.eu.org/Default.aspx?pageid=77 [07:23] .files and .folders are apps settings ??? [07:23] seriously this cant be that complicated [07:23] anyone know how i disable new message popups? [07:23] enneract: I have an HP model, but with the same digitizer. My ATI card works fine with the restricted drivers [07:24] which ati card is that? the 3300? [07:24] nw-b: you'll want to google xrandr .. it can be used to activate a second monitor.. it's also the thing driving video output in ubuntu these days.. the xorg.conf is relatively empty [07:24] enneract: I think it's an ATI 3200HD [07:24] ah yea, different chip [07:24] mine has a x1250, based on the R300 [07:24] the same [07:24] Does ubuntu server 9.04 support Intel Atom CPUs? [07:24] which, from what I can understand, support for was deprecated [07:24] enneract: but do you have a link to the article you were reading with the patches? [07:24] I just linked it [07:25] don't work well in 9.04 tough [07:25] Scunizi, thanks. [07:25] enneract: ah, thanks. Missed it up there [07:25] Scunizi, the thing is that when I restart the computer, the external monitor works ok, but then when the logon window appears, the video on the external monitor is gone [07:25] does anyone know of an alternative window-list applet for gnome other than the standard one and the window selector? [07:25] Scunizi, thanks. [07:25] qe2eqe: np :) [07:25] thats new cpu right qah that's the question i have been wondering about [07:25] aperson: what exactly are you looking for? [07:25] enneract do you have getted your graph card working with decent 3d on 9.04 ???? [07:26] no, I haven't managed to get 9.04 to work yet [07:26] aperson: AFAIK those are the only two. You might try awn or similar if you like that kind of thing [07:26] Scunizi, that is weird, because I just restarted my computer after updating and the monitor is not being detected anymore [07:26] !xrandr [07:26] XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 [07:26] adam7, I'd like to conserve space [07:26] I tried almost everything ... nothing work [07:26] aperson: screen space? [07:27] Scunizi, xrandr will write to your x config? [07:27] can anyone explain why it would be difficult or advantageous to use an older version of uhm, fglrx [07:27] i was looking at some intel atom servers because they run at very low wattage [07:27] How do I add fonts to Ubuntu ?? there are words in Dzhongkha on my screen and I currently get the Unicide blocks [07:27] enneract: the older versions don't support the newer kernels you'll probably need for your digitizer [07:27] adam7, I'm on an 800x480 display :) I'd like something that took up less horizontal space, but without a menu [07:27] qe2eqe: no.. it controls things in the background [07:28] but i want ubuntu to run on it [07:28] argh [07:28] aperson: ah, I understand :) I don't know of anything offhand -- I'm assuming you want just icons or something? [07:28] adam7, that'd be mostly what I'd want [07:28] does xrandr detect an external monitor? [07:28] QAH: there is an arm version but I don't think it's server.. mostly for cell phones and upcoming netbooks. [07:28] aperson: I can't think of anything offhand, but I think I've seen something similar before [07:29] adam7, thanks, I guess I'm back to google [07:29] aperson: you could try using alt+tab to switch, but that might be awkward [07:29] Scunizi, if you don't change your xorg.conf, your changes are lost, am I right? [07:29] is envyNG any stable? [07:29] So regular Ubuntu Server 9.04 wont run on Atom? [07:29] qe2eqe: nope.. if you look at your xorg.conf you won't see much of anything. [07:29] Is it possible to use Eclipse in Ubuntu? Has anyone here ever managed it? [07:29] etfb: sudo apt-get install eclipse [07:30] etfb: that should be all you have to do [07:30] adam7: I thought that too. Sadly, I can' really use a new IDE without any help files... [07:30] Scunizi, i guess the xrandr howto referred by the bot will explain to me what ubuntu uses to keep configurations if not xorg.conf? [07:30] s/can'/can't/ [07:31] adam7, window-picker-applet seems to be an option [07:31] qe2eqe: maybe.. [07:31] etfb: so eclipse works, but there is no documentation? [07:31] aperson: that seems to be exactly what you want [07:32] adam7: Yes. [07:32] where are the fucking mouse setting file(s) on linux ??????? [07:32] etfb: sometimes the docs ship in seperate packages [07:32] !language | tweaker25 [07:32] tweaker25: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. === pik} is now known as henrik [07:33] tweaker25: they'll be in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, probably [07:33] adam7, nope! [07:33] tweaker25: if you're usinggnome, system->prefs->mouse [07:33] adam7 I can't use my mouse [07:33] at all [07:33] so ubuntu server 9.04 wont run on Atom processors? [07:34] What's the deal with laggy videos on youtube in firefox? === henrik is now known as pik} [07:34] tweaker25, a fool proof way to see if its seen by the system is running the command cat /dev/input/mice [07:34] anyone ever run a server over a wireless network?

[07:35] adam7, is that for gnome or kde run dialog? [07:35] qe2eqe: to get to the tty [07:36] then you don't need a mouse [07:36] why you don't just use tab as normaly ? [07:36] @ADAM7 does it lag bad? I want to get the server off my main system, all other systems in my house are on wireless, the one I want to put it on has the balls to do it (htpc) but it is on wireless [07:36] Gobbles: shouldn't lag too bad. What exactly are you serving? [07:37] I love this, though - the defining feature of my hardware finally gets support, and support is deprecated for another necessary feature, with no apparent method of fixing it [07:37] if it's just html files you won't see any speed difference that is noticable [07:37] enneract: yeah =/ [07:37] enneract: although, the OSS driver might work ok [07:37] OSS? [07:37] open source one [07:37] adam7, you dork, you need to tell him how to get back from the tty [07:37] @adam7 around 10 websites - php, mysql, apache 2 inside a vmware machine running ubuntu 8.04 [07:37] ah fuck I'll try without fools like you not helping at all, a real nuissance ... [07:38] the author of that piece I linked has some other driver package 'radeon' working [07:38] but it has no 3d accl, which I need [07:38] enneract: yeah, that's the one [07:38] !latest [07:38] 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. [07:38] hmm .. [07:38] !kernel [07:38] The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages [07:38] !version [07:38] To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [07:38] Ladies .. does the latest Ubuntu release have a dom0 capable kernel? [07:39] qe2eqe: please don't insult people, it's not productive. and it would appear tweaker25 wasn't really listening to what anyone had to say anyway, he just ran around telling us how stupid we were without paying attention [07:39] mayday mayday, i am in some sort of safemode now!! tried to uppgrade graphics driver, but fialed [07:39] for the last time. does ubuntu 9.04 run on atom intel processors [07:39] QAH: maybe [07:39] QAH: the LPIA should, I think [07:39] any chance I could guse the 'upcoming Karmic package version' of wacom-tools with an older version of the kernel [07:39] which has the older xorg version, and likewise, radeon driver? [07:40] adam7: what is LPIA [07:40] please, how do i reinstall the graphics driver completely_ [07:40] QAH: the low power intel architecture, which I think is what the atom processor is [07:40] wow, even lost keyboard konfiguration.... :/ === joshthecoder is now known as joshthecoder_afk [07:40] adam7, I'm just using an interjection to tell you what you did wrong. If you send a noob to a tty with a key combo they just learned, how do you expect them to get back? [07:40] what have i done [07:40] and, likewise, is there a netbook remix (the UI seems custom made for touchscreens) based on the 8.xx kernel? [07:41] adam7, or what I think you did wrong, diplomatically enough [07:41] qe2eqe: ok, I admit, I should have told about ctrl+alt+f7, but as I said, he wasn't listening to me anyway [07:41] One more question. is it posibble to install ubuntu on an hp media smart server [07:41] [atiddxSetup] X version mismatch - detected X.org 7.1.1.901, required X.org 7.4-1.906 <--- what does this mean? [07:41] adam7, back to productive things. =) [07:42] enneract: 8.xx kernel? [07:42] qe2eqe: yep =D [07:42] QAH: the easiest way to find out is to try [07:42] clank: I have no idea what I am talking about, really, but apparently ubuntu version 8.04 had a working 3d accelerated graphics driver for my hardware, but 9.04 does not [07:42] Does the latest Ubuntu release have a dom0 capable kernel? [07:43] enneract: IIRC 8.10 might have a working graphics driver for that card as well, I think 9.04 was when they dropped support [07:43] clank: but 9.04 has updated drivers for my touchscreen, which 8.04 does not [07:43] is there a 8.10 netbook version, or some way to transplant the UI? [07:43] I'm pretty tech savvy, just never had a reason to delve into linux, so just figuring this out as I go... [07:43] adam7: ha ha. i don't have the $$$ to experiment and waste my money [07:44] QAH: oh, I thought you already had one -- check google then === me_ is now known as genera [07:45] !hardware | QAH [07:45] QAH: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection [07:45] Anyone know how I can make a script that can do etherwake without sudo? [07:46] You could probably just write sudo into the bash script? [07:46] adam7: Thanks for that info [07:47] So, no ideas on netbook 8.10? [07:47] or, I could ask google like a non-moron [07:47] enneract: http://www.ubuntumini.com/2008/10/installing-ubuntu-netbook-remix.html <-- for dell mini but should be applicable [07:47] enneract one of my ubuntu machines on 8.04 is running 2.6.24. you could download and compile it yourself. however, I doubt a few kernel versions would completely break your card [07:47] hello [07:48] enneract: what card it it? [07:48] how can I use cam on ubuntu [07:48] radeon x1250 [07:48] monday, Thats possible, I just don't want to be putting my password willy nilly all over the drive [07:48] and yes, 9.04 breaks 3d acceleration completely [07:48] Oh, I see. [07:48] Hmm. [07:48] unless I can roll back to an earlier version of xorg [07:48] qe2eqe: you can use visudo to make running etherwake passwordless with sudo [07:48] oh, simple solution then, get a laptop with an intel or nvidia card. next question [07:48] lol, can't do that. [07:48] clank: I don't think getting a new laptop is really a solution... [07:49] laptop with this ones features doesn't exist [07:49] avoiding ati like a plague in the first place is [07:49] other than this one [07:49] sadly :\ [07:49] enneract: and the HP tx2 line, which has ATI cards too [07:49] no, tx2 is too heavy [07:49] and badly shaped [07:49] in my opinion === donna is now known as Guest49285 [07:53] any WindowMaker buffs around?

[07:58] i just downloaded ATI Catalyst control center hope it works with my laptop [07:58] oops aticonfigh [07:59] hey guys. Have a question - how can I convert different audio formats to mp3? [08:00] vadim, you could use audacity if you only need to convert one at a time [08:01] interflop: and can I convert a bunch of them at a time somehow. i.e. the whole album of one artist? [08:01] Hello. Anyone owns a system with an AMD Athlon TF-20 processor? If yes, can you check your /proc/cpuinfo file? Can you locate the svm flag? [08:01] vadim: not in audacity. depending on the file format a program like rhythmbox or banshee should be able to import and convert the files to mp3 [08:02] i uninstalled ATI Catalyst program when i ran aticonfig it said no adapters detected [08:02] interflop: hmm, didn't see this feature in banshee [08:03] I have an Atom 330 motherboard with integrated Intel graphics, running Ubuntu 9.04.

My pings will range from 18 ms to 5000 ms. The connection will become so slow it'll eventually time out. Is there any way to get WPA2 fully working? [08:06] is it possible to install kubuntu-desktop offline? [08:08] gmv: Yes, with tools like apt-on-cd or a local apt mirror / cache. [08:09] aptoncd rather - without hyphens I think. [08:09] tonyyarusso: i want to download it here, from windows and install in ubuntu [08:10] gmv: Okay, that I don't know that you can pull off. You'll probably have to at least use a Live CD to build the cache. [08:10] oh! tnx tonyyarusso [08:12] gmv, tonyyarusso: or download the Kubuntu alternate CD [08:12] !offline [08:12] 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.

[10:28] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH aaronvarghese read this [10:28] vga=1024x768? [10:28] what the values on the ... should be I always forget. Somewhere on the wiki you should be able to find it :) [10:28] no, if only it were that simple [10:28] robertc1985, or you can use the start up manager, a GUI which allows to manage boot options [10:29] robertc1985: I think that's the one [10:29] it's vga=666 or some other ununderstandable code [10:29] I'm trying to 'cryptsetup luksClose foo', and it tells me that the device is busy. Yet none of the volumes from that LVM are mounted. Is this because the LVM devices still exist, and I need to remove them? If so, how do I do that? [10:29] Seveas: I think it's 771 [10:29] I remember setting it for my ancient laptop [10:29] How to start an installed application, google earth? Just ran the package manager and says it is installed. Where? [10:29] lol ok, i know a little about menu.lst so if i can just get the needed code i can do it [10:30] robertc1985, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootText [10:30] awesome, thank you much [10:31] robertc1985, only look at the first section about increasing resolution. The rest is rubbish [10:31] i am a multitasking freak [10:31] robertc1985, Add/Remove startupmanager [10:31] ya learning that stuff was a pain but atleast slackware taught me a little. === tyler is now known as Guest33102 [10:31] robertc1985, System -> Admin -> Startup Manager -> Select the resolution you want [10:31] I have installed ubuntuone-client-applet but when I click icon nothing happens also running "killall ubuntuone-client-applet && ubuntuone-client-applet --signup" again nothing happens and no messages appear in terminal, anyone managed to get this thing going? [10:32] how can i make my own ubuntu on a usb stick? the version from the website fails with a crash. i wonder how to make it bootable and where to find the documentation how canonical is building these bootable img files [10:32] oldude67: I tried to build a Linux From Scratch system. That was....a nightmare :D [10:32] Toshibi, but you probably learned quite a bit [10:32] Toshibi, i bet slackware was hard enough [10:32] Hm. Maybe 'dmsetup remove'? [10:33] Seveas: It answered the age old question of "How do you compile something when you don't have a compiler!?!?!" [10:33] actually i don't see a startup manager in the menu, xfce not gnome [10:33] LFS/gentoo/*BSD and other source-based distributions are ok if you have the time. For normal use I'd stick to ubuntu/debian/fedora [10:33] The boot strap compile of the compiler... [10:33] That was it. Thanks guys! [10:34] Seveas: I have this IBM laptop from the stone ages. It's made of concrete and lead I think. Anyhow, i was trying to make it usable. I ended up with DSL. [10:34] Toshibi, the only good use for that is in ballistics [10:34] robertc1985, you are trying to do something that is in grub more then likely... [10:34] (as in: throw it at something :)) [10:35] I turned it into an e-book reader [10:35] It sits on the floor in the bathroom :D [10:35] Gotta read somewhere [10:35] yeah i can do it from gedit right now thanks [10:35] hehehe [10:35] robertc1985, from the terminal run: startupmanager [10:35] ok [10:36] how do I make ubuntu boot without asking for a password?

[10:36] oh my bad [10:36] robertc1985: Not true from what I recall. :) [10:36] qe2eqe: You could always try bribing it with money [10:36] i was mistaken for removing a password [10:36] robertc1985, well, s/can't/shouldn't/ as it's not safe ;) [10:37] Cant beat paper books in bathroom though esp when in bath, would chance an old lappy though if I get the chance lol [10:37] Seveas, thanks.

[11:45] monday, stop that [11:45] ahhh thanks monday [11:45] cunt [11:45] moho, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre [11:45] there is no thing [11:45] :) [11:45] moho, you too [11:46] there is no thing [11:46] kyle_: nothing there.... [11:46] bazhang: I also thought it could have to do with this, but I don't know what to do :( [11:46] You stop that, Bazhang! [11:46] linduxed: It searched and found no restricted drivers? [11:46] yes [11:46] since I have upgraded to jaunty I never switched to ext4. can you suggest me a howto or something like that to change filesystem? [11:46] only NIVIDIA graphic card [11:47] monday, stay on topic [11:47] kyle_: for nothing [11:47] i have ATI radeon xpress 1270. after i upgarde to ubuntu 9.04 , my screen resoution is very low, please help :( [11:47] Okay. Ubuntu ejaculates. [11:47] bazhang: I'd uninstall ksplice but I can't even boot the system :( [11:47] linduxed: press alt and f2 type gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf [11:47] is it possible that i have java but its not enabled? ;o [11:47] why upgade killed my computer [11:47] Waldir, that was from a third party web site correct? [11:48] moho: did you try apt-get command? [11:48] yeh [11:49] kyle_: yeah? [11:49] moho: what are you trying to load in java? try System > Preferences > Sun Java... look in there [11:49] bazhang: kslpice? I can't remember exactly if I downloaded it from their site or installed it with synaptic, but in any case it shows up in synaptic [11:49] *ksplice [11:49] linduxed: find the keyboard section of the file [11:49] so even if it's from a third party, I would guess it's somewhat "approved" by ubuntu, or something [11:49] moho, do you have multiverse enabled? what ubuntu version you using? [11:49] kyle_: there is none since jaunty uses hotplugging [11:49] 9.04 [11:50] and whats multiverse [11:50] Waldir, patching live kernel without having to reboot? sounds very risky to say the least if you don't know what is going on [11:50] i have ATI radeon xpress 1270. after i upgarde to ubuntu 9.04 , my screen resoution is very low, please help :( [11:50] then [11:50] ? [11:50] kyle_: the file is pretty much empty [11:50] then [11:50] linduxed: hmm sorry im using Karmic, let me think [11:50] bazhang: I read some threads in the ubuntu forum about it and nobody seemed to be complaining [11:50] moho, one of the software repositores; enable in synaptic package manager [11:50] so I thought it would be safe [11:50] Waldir, okay, really no idea about ksplice sorry [11:51] errr, don't understand what you just said bazhang [11:51] kibibyte, which driver are you using [11:51] bazhang: what do you suggest me to do? I would uninstall it if I could at least boot linux! [11:51] moho, open synaptic package manager [11:51] bazhang, dont know [11:51] :/ [11:51] i have amd64 [11:51] moho, it should be enabled by default, always is for my jaunty installs. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre [11:51] linduxed: add to the file these lines (every new message is a new line [11:52] bazhang: I tryed to boot in recovery mode and there's an option called dkpg or something, that says it'll fix errors with packages. I thought that could update ksplice which was complaining about being an old version [11:52] bazhang, [11:52] Section "Device" [11:52] Identifier "Configured Video Device" [11:52] Driver "ati" [11:52] kibibyte: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [11:52] Waldir, that is the route I would take tbh [11:53] linduxed: Section "InputDevice" [11:53] bazhang: but there were errors saying the websites couldn't be reached [11:53] hi! what is easiest way of creating 32-bit chroot jail with full 32-bit unbuntu environment, on a 64-bit box? :) [11:53] linduxed: Identifier "Keyboard0" [11:53] linduxed: Driver "kdb" [11:53] howdy all [11:54] linduxed: Option "XkbModel" "pc105" [11:54] kibibyte, were you previously using the proprietary drivers? [11:54] bazhang, yes [11:54] bazhang: could those errors be because at that point the network drivers aren't loaded yet? [11:54] linduxed: Option "XkbLayout" "us" (if you use a us keyboard) [11:54] i got a little problem with ubuntu - I managed to break the desktop... I can get to a command prompt and have tried apt-get install ubuntu-desktop. but Gnome just seems to stop at the desktop.. no pannel or anything. I think I screwed it up good... [11:54] Waldir, not sure, odd that it would try to access and outside (the repos) site [11:54] bazhang, and what to do now [11:54] linduxed: EndSection [11:54] bazhang: is there a way I can check that, and load them? there's a command line option in the recovery menu, too [11:54] my screen res is low [11:54] linduxed: save the file and reboot [11:55] kibibyte, for ati you were using the fglrx previously? [11:55] kyle_: restart of X should suffice... [11:55] linduxed: yes [11:55] bazhang, there is Load "glx" in xorg.conf [11:55] kibibyte, iirc the radeonhd open source driver is your best option now [11:55] most likely... [11:56] hey [11:56] bazhang, how to install it [11:56] bazhang: do you have any I dea where I can get help? an irc channel? or some suggestions of keywords for a search? [11:56] kevin__: do you have a problem?

[11:57] linduxed: did it work [11:57] I have the problem that hellanzb stops after every download. I have to restart after every download. Anybody any idea?

I sometimes look up the program name in synaptic before, and install, them from there (especially if they provide tar.gz in their site instead of .deb) but I can't tell you for sure on this one :( [12:02] how to restart X server [12:02] computa_mike, isn't it ubuntu-desktop^ [12:02] ctrl+alt+backspace doesnt wotk in 9.04 [12:02] kibibyte: usually ctrl alt backspace [12:02] kyle_, doesnt work [12:02] Waldir, seems from the faq http://www.ksplice.com/uptrack/faq it is trying to contact their servers [12:02] what window manager are you using? [12:02] kibibyte: restart or log out [12:02] !dontzap | kibibyte [12:02] kibibyte: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. [12:02] kibibyte: also works [12:03] Hello Everyone! Happy 4th of July and Happy Birthday to me!

[12:03] bart416: what did I type ? [12:03] Quick question....I noticed that my ubuntu installation picks up Windows machines in the network very easily HOWEVER it does not pick up other uBuntu boxes. Does this mean that I have to install NFS? [12:03] you didn't add a ^ [12:03] I think it's necessary [12:03] oh well [12:03] If you usesudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [12:04] it should restart x as well [12:04] What kinds of information do you [12:04] collect from my computer? Waldir [12:04] * sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [12:04] kyle_: ok so that totally did not help [12:04] linduxed: so system > preferences > keyboard doesnt save your preferences? [12:04] bart416: ah - right... i'll try that [12:04] bazhang: yes, I found it. but you're saying this because of the dkpg errors I mentioned? [12:04] right - i'll report back if i have ny news [12:04] Waldir, seems that is the issue [12:04] kyle_: since the introduction of hotplugging, configuring policies seems like the way to go [12:04] what's the link of phottobin? and tinylink? [12:05] kyle_: it does [12:05] linduxed: it saves your config? [12:05] kyle_: i dont think youve understood the problem [12:05] !imagebin > Kangarooo [12:05] Kangarooo, please see my private message [12:05] hy [12:05] bazhang: I'll try that again and come back with the specific errors from dpkg [12:05] hy [12:05] kyle_: it saves everything [12:05] kyle_: its just that ive got 2 layouts to choose there [12:05] if i have a dual core 2.53 processer sud running a java game use it all? o.o [12:06] bazhang: just one question, how can I make the output of dpkg not run too fast through the screen? [12:06] linduxed: you use them both? [12:06] I got an network problem, my computer dusn't see my lan or any WLAN anymore. The last thing i did was try to update my drivers from my networkcard to the madwifi firmware. I made an backup from my drivers. And did the command degmod, after that an reboot. But then the network tools din't boot up. And i could't get into the group manger tool [12:06] kyle_: and ive got (or had, i changed it so i could see if it has effect) it set to different layouts for different windows [12:06] kyle_: occasionally i did use both [12:07] kyle_: the problem [12:07] plz some1 tell me how to exttract .rar files [12:07] linduxed: so you only want one but it uses different ones per app [12:07] !rar > om26er [12:07] om26er, please see my private message [12:07] I got an network problem, my computer dusn't see my lan or any WLAN anymore. The last thing i did was try to update my drivers from my networkcard to the madwifi firmware. I made an backup from my drivers. And did the command degmod, after that an reboot. But then the network tools din't boot up. And i could't get into the group manger tool [12:07] kyle_: is that at seemingly random times, the WM gets the other layout that i use veeeery rarely [12:08] kyle_: and that screws up my keyboard shortcuts [12:08] linduxed: what is the order they show in (what is your main one you use) [12:08] kyle_: i use colemak, the other is the standard swedish one [12:08] grayfox...what version of ubuntu?

[12:12] grayfox: After that, check the system tray to see if you have network connectivity [12:12] linduxed: then colemak should be the default layout and the other wont be used === _Ranakah is now known as Ranakah [12:12] grayfox: there should be a 'double-screen' icon or something similar--wi-fi signal strength bars for a wireless connection. [12:13] test [12:13] bas....loud and clear ;) [12:13] ok :-) [12:14] grayfox: How's it progressing? [12:15] hello [12:15] I dual boot WinXP with Ubuntu. The wireless doesn't work in Ubuntu unless it was explicitly enabled in Windows. ANy ideas how to fix this? Sometimes I disable it (to save battery life), and it's inconvenient to boot to Windows first just to make it work in Ubuntu ... [12:15] is ther a acetoneiso like soft for gnome ? === hello is now known as Guest59872 [12:16] hi all, I am on KDE, how can I change default sound card for gnome apps and Wine?

Installed was Kubuntu, the result should be a dual-boot system. So i downloaded and burned the "Super Grub Disc", booted from the liveCD, shrinked my ubuntu partition and created a new ntfs one with gparted and installed windows onto the new partition. [12:33] so far so good, windows boots now perfectly all right. [12:33] you downloaded the client version? [12:34] moho: yes [12:34] to boot ubuntu, i inserted the super grub disc and selected "linux (auto)" [12:34] moho: ftp://ftp.freenet.de/pub/4players/teamspeak.org/releases/ts2_client_rc2_2032.tar.bz2 [12:34] it boots, but it seems like the whole filesystem is broken === whole is now known as zDot [12:34] so i started from live dc again to try an fsck [12:34] ahhh yeh, but i extracted it after that [12:34] but there i only get an input/output error...

[12:38] back to 8.04?.. no [12:38] just type cd ts2_client_rc2_2032 [12:39] hi all i'm having problems compiling the ipw2200 driver - here's what i get: http://paste.ubuntu.com/209725/ [12:39] bash: cd: ts2_client_rc2_2032: No such file or directory i did ;o [12:39] how to reinstall firefox? [12:39] cd ~/Desktop/ts2_client_rc2_2032 [12:39] if it's on your desktop [12:39] the only way to have a fully working linux is to fully understand linux, there is no simple way, at least my experience no distrp could ever fully work out of box or be fixed with out of box tools (means gui config tools) [12:40] silidan1: for basic users ubuntu will work perfectly out of the box [12:40] does anybody know how to change the default python version for ubuntu? [12:40] can noone help me?? Please!

[12:41] lupi: yes mine freezes too [12:41] moho: double click setup.sh and say run in terminal and it should work [12:41] i can still remember painfully goo dold 8.04 where i had to write my own xorg.conf to get it running [12:41] but so does opera(less) [12:42] but only when watching flash videos like youtube [12:42] i clicked run in terminal and sh: Can't open setup.sh [12:42] silidan1: well i guess i had to edit my files to get effects working [12:43] moho: you chmodded it to 777 ... ummm try sudo sh setup.sh [12:43] when you are new to linux thats exactly the problem: ubuntu makes you believe you can do everything by gui config, but you simply cant [12:43] silidan1: exactly. [12:43] hi all i'm having problems compiling the ipw2200 driver - here's what i get: http://paste.ubuntu.com/209725/ [12:44] silidan1: everything is gksudo gedit this gedit that....

[12:45] what u mean? [12:45] moho: read the readme file and install it manually [12:45] moho: then it will work [12:45] in 8.04 i had a problem with my keyboard whatever systool i used it never had any effect... till i wrote my own xorg.conf... [12:46] isnt an OS should be made simpler rather than adding thousands of features [12:46] yes/no [12:46] ?? [12:46] silidan1: i never used 8 i used ubuntu, didnt like it switched back to windows, hated windows, came back to ubuntu 9.04 stayed upgraded to Karmic and I'm pretty content [12:46] depends on what it's used for i suppose [12:46] take ubuntu as an example [12:46] ?? [12:47] MaRTiNI: depends on how simple the commands are [12:47] hi [12:47] i was having a discussion wid 1 of my friend [12:47] Karmic? never heard of [12:47] i am having a weird problem on my jaunty: suddenly the mouse stopped working, it seems something is locking the focus [12:47] silidan1: it's 9.10 run update-manager -d and you can update to it [12:48] silidan1: it fucked my system up though (kinda) [12:48] he said he hates windows registry but not in /etc folder in linux [12:48] MaRTiNi: what? [12:48] gca: do you have a problem? [12:48] well my update from 8.04 -> 8.10 -> 9.04 ended in a disaster, i had to reinstall (again didtn get my desktop running) [12:48] kyle_: yes [12:48] it's quite annoying [12:48] gca: what is it? [12:49] as i said, something is wrong in th mouse operation [12:49] i will never ever try a dist upgrade again in ubuntu [12:49] it seems something locks the mouse pointer [12:49] i can move it [12:49] silidan1: i accidentally uninstalled gdm... that sucked [12:49] !offline [12:49] 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 [12:49] i can sometimes open some apps, but it suddenly stops working [12:49] gca: so it freezes [12:49] gdm uninstall is no problem... [12:50] dabukalam:has your question answered? [12:50] silidan1: you can sudo apt-get install it after but it scared me at first [12:50] not really, i can still move it and some times it makes what it should, that's why i sais it is weird [12:50] gca: laptop or desktop? [12:50] desktop [12:50] i already checked it is connected [12:51] yep, id whish ubuntu did continue updating packages instead of just fixing security issues, i mean something like a rolling release system [12:51] i tested with another mouse (it happenned the same) [12:51] kyle_ read all [12:51] send u somthin [12:51] since I have upgraded to jaunty I never switched to ext4. can you suggest me a howto or something like that to change filesystem? [12:51] :P [12:51] and i boot with the emergency winXP and there it works perfectly [12:51] so it is not a hardware problem [12:51] ya me 2 [12:51] silisan1 just because you had a bad experience does not mean it does not work - i upgraded just fine [12:52] gca: check system > administration > hardware drivers or restricted drivers [12:52] i cant [12:52] MaRTiNi: umm you should be fune [12:52] well if something doesnt work for one but for another something is wrong with it [12:52] fine [12:52] silidan1: i concur [12:52] ??

[14:58] adante, sudo fdisk -l [14:58] can someone answer me a question? what happens if I install Ubuntu 64 bits in a core 2 duo (32 bits)? will it work correctly? [14:58] Anyone have experience with nvidia drivers [14:58] Halitech: hmm, that just says 'linux' - i wanted something more descriptive regarding e.g. reiser, ext3... [14:59] zecabaronio, if its not 64 bit capable it won't install [14:59] zecabaronio: core 2 duo is a 64 bit cpu [14:59] djiezes: i see, it's almost like chrome though. [15:00] who can help with insstalling eth0 [15:00] adante, right, was thinking it showed more ... partition editor should tell you [15:00] Halitech: hm any way to do it from command line? i'm stuck in a rsh here [15:02] adante: what are you trying to see from command line ? [15:02] rsh? [15:02] O_0 [15:02] i love linux [15:02] i so love linux [15:03] adante, do you mean ssh? no varibles in fdisk that I can see and no other commands come to mind [15:03] whats the big difference from server and desktop release? [15:04] Hestv4: yeah basically [15:04] odonata: Desktop releases come with a GUI (GNOME/KDE/Xfce) and lots of graphical apps. [15:04] odonata, server doesn't have a gui and a kernel optimized for servers, desktop has a gui and apps you would use graphically [15:04] cypher1: trying to find out the fs type of partitions without mounting htem [15:04] Halitech: yeah basically, ssh only atm [15:04] i suppose its possible to install vpn, web/mail server etc in desktop [15:04] adante: sudo fdisk -l [15:04] Hi! Which jabber server would you suggest? [15:04] odonata, yes it is [15:05] cypher1: yeah that shows type 'linux', was hoping for something more descriptive like ext3, reiserfs etc [15:05] nice [15:05] adante: the Id gives what type of fs [15:05] hi, i am trying to create an access point in jaunty. i think i have set everything with iwconfig, it all looks ok. but when i do a scan from another machine, i can't see the essid being broadcast. any tips? [15:06] kernel optimized for servers, u mean? optimized for hugh load ? [15:06] cypher1: uh, isn't the id=83 for ext3 and reiser? [15:06] Hi all. [15:07] Hi [15:07] adante: not sure [15:07] odonata, not necessarily high load but able to fork things out [15:07] alrite [15:08] I have a problem mounting USB pendrives, does someone have a spare minute to help? [15:08] Anyone have experience with nvidia drivers [15:08] yes, what seems to be the problem [15:09] Well when I installed the Nvidia drivers, the recommended version and rebooted the pc it wouldnt start x. I had to remve thedrivers using envy to get it to reboot into X [15:09] adante: yes it looks like 83 stands for both ext3 and reiser.. sorry [15:09] i dont use the recommended version, i use the closed version [15:10] closed version? I'm new to this ehehe [15:10] cypher1: np i'll keep googling heh [15:10] there was two versions, i believe 173 and 183 or something [15:10] jonathancw: hi [15:10] Well when I installed the Nvidia drivers, the recommended version and rebooted the pc it wouldnt start x. I had to remve thedrivers using envy to get it to reboot into X <-- did you get the ones from the nvidia site? [15:10] if yes you first need to remove a couple of things that came with ubuntu [15:10] and block a kernel module from being loaded [15:11] bart416 no i used the one that ubuntu wanted to install [15:11] what's the easiest way for me to auto-restart a script i wrote if it periodically dies? [15:11] adante, try df -T [15:11] and the card you have is supported? === tyler is now known as Guest14052 [15:12] the auto detect seems to make mistakes sometimes [15:12] adante, looks like it will give you more then just the type but hopefully it works on non mounted drives [15:12] Which jabber server is recommended for pidgin? [15:12] homy: I don't think there's a recommended one ... I just use Google Talk's. [15:12] doesn't really matter homy, use the one you like to use [15:13] homy: Try searching for "xmpp server list" [15:13] It's SLI [15:13] Could that cause an issue? [15:13] yeah :| [15:13] ah X doesnt support sli yet? [15:13] homy, depends on what jabber account you have [15:14] xdck: I don't have one yet. [15:14] so can somwone help me with wlan? [15:14] joining [15:15] I have an issue with an ipod... when plugged in, it gets mounted in /media/IPOD and I have user RW, but there is no icon on desktop, no icon in nautilus, banshee refuses to work with it and I must be root to unmount it. Any idea? [15:15] homy, so you need to get one, for example google or livejournal [15:15] Halitech: alas no :) anyway i am installing vnc now to try and use partition editor, hehe [15:15] Halitech: thanks for your efforts though, appreciated [15:15] Does X Suport 9800 GT SLI Video Cards? [15:16] adante, you'll need to install a desktop as well in order for vnc to work properly .... I wonder if webmin or ebox would work to give you that info? [15:16] xdck: which is the best (dedicated) free jabber service? [15:16] Is there an command to activate my WLAN? [15:16] ? [15:16] ? [15:16] ? [15:16] Grayfox32141: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [15:16] Is there some logg file on comp so that i can see all ip adreses wich where connected to my comp for some date transfer? [15:17] Grayfox32141, sudo dhclient wlan0 [15:17] homy, they are all free, pick anyone [15:17] Does X Suport 9800 GT SLI Video Cards? [15:17] thank you halitech [15:17] Grayfox32141, may not work if the drivers aren't loaded properly though [15:18] where can i find out my soundcard module name? [15:18] Halitech: how can you load the drivers? [15:18] WAVIN, lshw -C sound [15:19] Grayfox32141, depends on what card you have [15:19] how can you see that in terminal, i'll copy and past it [15:19] Grayfox32141, is it a pci card, usb or built in? [15:19] build in [15:20] i'm running on an laptop [15:20] WAVIN, last line should say module= [15:20] and it has worked before [15:20] Halitech: i tried to changed my drivers to madwifi [15:20] but that failed [15:20] thanks [15:20] Grayfox32141, if it was working why did you change it? [15:20] I removed my drivers, but now i have returned them back on the right map [15:20] because i wanted to use the madwifi [15:21] Grayfox32141, how did you reinstall them? [15:21] i putted them back on the right folder [15:22] ... [15:22] i did the command: nm-applet and then my LAN worked again [15:23] But 2 problems remain [15:23] Grayfox32141, how did you get them working the first time? [15:23] i just installed Ubuntu, and i worked like an charm [15:23] it* [15:23] wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg ESSID:"" [15:23] Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated [15:23] Tx-Power=20 dBm [15:23] Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr=2352 B [15:23] Power Management:off [15:23] Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0 [15:23] Grayfox32141: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [15:24] leaving4now [15:24] hmm [15:24] Ae there any Nvidia gurus in here? [15:24] Grayfox32141, don't paste multiple lines in, use pastebin and give us the link [15:25] Grayfox32141, try sudo dhclient wlan0 [15:25] How do I unmount USB drives before removing them? [15:26] rocciamax: right-click, choose "Unmount" [15:26] rocciamax, right click the desktop icon and unmount or sudo umount /dev/sdXX changing XX to the corrct info [15:26] halitech: http://paste.ubuntu.com/209822/ [15:26] i just tries to do an dchp discover.. [15:26] How do I kill my firefox process? [15:26] grawity yes, when there is an icon to click on. But this drive creates no icons... [15:27] But No DHCPOFFERS received. [15:27] i don't want to sudo it... [15:27] Happy Fourth of July to all the US Ubuntu-ers in here =D [15:27] Grayfox32141, are you using WPA/WEP/WPA2? === chaky_ is now known as chaky [15:27] rocciamax: on Terminal, sudo umount /media/blah [15:27] rocciamax: that is the only other way. [15:27] i'm not using any [15:27] How do you run a Perl script in Ubuntu? [15:28] because my wireless card is not enabled, because of the drivers! [15:28] rocciamax: btw, where is it mounted? [15:28] Whenever I close VLC player, It is quit. instead of that i need it goes to system tray in ubuntu [15:28] hmmm [15:28] grawity it was a way to approach my real problem the other way: this ipod gets automounted, but can't be unmounted by user. [15:28] Any idea? [15:28] Grayfox32141, if it wasn't enabled you wouldn't see it [15:29] Ae there any Nvidia gurus in here? [15:29] MBD123: py prel.py [15:29] Halitech: if i click right on my task bar, it says wirless network/ Device not ready [15:30] so yeah [15:30] grayfox3214, whats the output of lspci and lcusb [15:30] grayfox3214, lsusb [15:30] im not sure what you mean [15:30] Padhu1: Isn't the extension .py Python? [15:30] I have a wireless card with 3 antennas, I don't know the model, and I have no drivers. How could I use it? [15:31] MBD123: Yes [15:31] grayfox3214, open a terminal and run lspci and then lsusb [15:31] Padhu1: Oh, that was a joke [15:31] okay [15:32] MBD123: what? [15:32] Halitech, If i run lspic it shows there [15:32] operations, open a terminal and use pastebin to give us the output of lspci [15:32] Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008 [15:32] operations, ok, well tell us what it is so we aren't guessing [15:32] Padhu1: Oh, that WASN'T a joke? [15:32] hey everybody. [15:32] operations, I think that needs the ath5k module [15:33] Padhu1: I thought you were saying Python was better than Perl [15:33] Halitech:http://paste.ubuntu.com/209827/ [15:33] Where do I get it? [15:33] MBD123: No. Don't compare it. [15:34] grayfox3214, you have the atheros chipset as well [15:34] how do i use a printer that is connected to a windows machine on my network? [15:34] Padhu1: I"m not [15:34] Ps: I have weak signal from my wireless router. The laptop get's full signal, but the desktop almost none [15:34] hey 2gether [15:34] Halitech: Isn't that one of the best supported chipset in ubuntu? [15:34] Padhu1: You said py prel.py and I thought you meant that I should use Python instead of Perl [15:34] python is an program and perl is an scripting language [15:34] grayfox3214, as far as I understand yes [15:35] Padhu1: I'm... confused [15:35] Padhu1: since when is python not a scripting language? [15:35] phadul, both perl and python are scripting languages [15:35] the only difference is that perl doesn't really give shit about how your code is formatted [15:35] MBD123: I recommend you to ignore Padhu1 for a while. (For example, until year 2100.) [15:36] and has no built in OO support [15:36] well, that's the main difference [15:36] for the rest perl and python are pretty similar [15:36] I am not familiar with the both. But i read like that in magazines. [15:36] Halitech, where do I get the drivers from? [15:36] phadul, both of them are scripting languages; remember that [15:36] grawity: Why? [15:37] operations, grayfox3214 look here http://blog.hyperandy.com/2008/11/01/atheros-ar242x-ubuntu-810-ibex/ [15:37] Thank you [15:37] bart416: oh [15:38] how can i open simply a port for remote terminal ? [15:38] okay good [15:38] but now i think the drivers arn't working wel [15:38] because my LAN is working okay [15:38] I wanted to check my hardware drivers application, but i just don't start up [15:38] all this driver update did something strange [15:38] grayfox3214: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [15:38] it [15:39] Hi folks. Is there an official, generally accepted, best practice on how to get the wireless of an Acer Aspire One (Atheros AR242x) working with 9.04? I reinstalled and forgot to back-up the modules list. Now I am googling my way to whatever I already did in April that I can't quite remember what it was. [15:40] halitech? [15:40] rbanffy, funny you should ask :) I just found a link for that machine .. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne [15:40] rbanffy: install madwifi and blacklist the built-in atheros module is how I did it [15:41] Dulak: Thanks. I remember it was easy. I just don't remember what it was [15:41] ... [15:41] anyone? === SpinacZ is now known as PaperClip` [15:43] grayfox3214, read the link I sent you, I dont have that card so beyond google I don't know [15:44] Dulak: The madwifi is the hostapd module? [15:45] admin1 [15:45] whoops wrong channel [15:46] hmmm i think i fixed it [15:46] gonna reboot [15:46] brb [15:46] Hi, I have ubuntu hardy, should I upgrade to the last version? it is totally necesary? [15:46] how do I make an upgrade, does this involve losing my data? [15:46] hey`: Not necessary, but jaunty is really nice [15:47] hey`: If Hardy is working, wait until the next LTS is out. [15:47] yes, it's alright. [15:47] mmh if I wanted to upgrade: would I lose my data? [15:47] hey`: No, your /home would not change [15:47] hey`: A couple of upgrades via the update manager should do without data loss, but, still, you should back-up your data even when not considering an upgrade [15:48] i want to login to my terminal with ssh but i get connection refused [15:48] geirha_ ,rbanffy thanks :) [15:50] hi [15:51] hi [15:51] erxin: Are you sure the ssh server is running? === niki is now known as Guest23002 [15:52] is ssh safe to use ? [15:52] safe in what way? [15:52] hmm it din't work.. [15:52] i had to start up nm-applet again.. [15:52] erxin: Do you have sshd (openssh-server) installed? [15:53] im not shure, i just installed Ubuntu Sabily [15:53] its my second day on linux [15:53] and it shows grayfox3214@localhostlocaldomain again in the terminal.. [15:53] Then you don't [15:53] try to /etc/init.d/sshd start [15:53] erxin: Sabily? [15:53] i think my rights arn't good anymore [15:53] i will google for the ssh server [15:53] erxin: Go to the terminal, type: sudo apt-get install openssh-server [15:53] erxin: What is Ubuntu Sabily? [15:53] erxin: then it will be installed. [15:54] Sabily = Ubuntu Muslum Edititon the latest version [15:54] ... anyway, sudo apt-get install openssh-server [15:54] whats the big difference between apt-get and aptitude ? [15:54] erxin: Ah, well, ssh is safe as long as you use a good password [15:54] i use often aptitude [15:55] erxin: apt-get/apt-cache is, I think, the original interface to the 'apt' system [15:55] erxin: They both install and remove packages, use the one you feel like [15:55] erxin: and aptitude/synaptic are two "easier to use" GUI interfaces [15:55] I've recovered a deleted 3gp video with testdisk. the file size is ok, but there is no audio and video header (see http://pastebin.com/d31cb4607). since I know all properties, does anyone know how to "write" a header ? or a program to fix this? [15:55] (well, aptitude isn't exactly GUI, but) [15:56] can i add 3th party reposities to apt-get without conflicting my system ? [15:56] grawity: It's a TUI [15:56] can anywone help me with this, i think my computer duns't start up some aplications such as the network. Because it dusn't have full rights or any rights! [15:56] geirha_: TUI is one of the TLAs I never remember :/ [15:57] grayfox3214: rights mean premissions? [15:57] yeah [15:57] Didek: i can't open anymore my hardware drivers aplication, nor my user and groups aplication [15:57] ok, easytags sucks. any other apps for modifying mp3 info? [15:58] grayfox3214: i think u need to chroot on ubuntu partition and chmod 777 all files, then restart and change premissions 4 all files [15:58] sudo apt-get purge easytag [15:58] whats the best program for playing windows games (Warcraft 3) in ubuntu, it gets laggy with Wine, tried -opengl, low grafics, everything, seems like my gfx get overheated, GeForce 8400M GS with the newest 185 driver.

REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! [16:03] Please do NOT do that.

[16:05] racarter: And it's ok to repeat a question if you don't get an answer, but wait at least 5-10 minutes (depending on traffic) before repeating again.

Can anyone help me out with that? [16:31] Armence, you need to look into the apache config file i believe. Thats an easy fix [16:31] Elvaron: You can only resize any partition if its unmounted. If its the partition containing your system or your home directory you will have to boot from a livecd before you can edit the partitions. Be sure to back up all partitions first in case of error!

Have the drive mounted and shared correctly but I'm having a permissions problem I guess. Files written to the drive across the network are unable to be modified on the computer unless we do a sudo chown to the file. So two questions really.. the main one being how do I prevent this file lockout.. and the second just a curiousity.. how do I change ownership via the UI.. currently we are using [17:08] ok. [17:08] then you need a boot folder [17:08] are you sure its bootable? [17:08] Iderik: you have to place the contents of the iso onto the drive === jcdury is now known as dury [17:08] is there another distro which would work better on my moms 533 MHZ computer for running off cd [17:08] yeah [17:08] again thak you and thanks for the site [17:08] antix [17:08] scunizi : its already unchecked [17:09] Llynix: from cli it's easy.. sudo chown username:username [17:09] hi there all :) [17:09] DarkMage26, i've tried that too :/ i copied the iso. contains to the usb drive. but i still get disc error at boot. could it be something else that is wrong? please [17:09] OrEvA: did you hit the "refresh" key?

[17:09] Iderik: you have to make the usb drive bootable first [17:09] doink1212: how much ram?

Please give some guides, is it I have to install some software? The system is on laptop. [17:10] Iderik: what is the iso of? ubuntu? [17:10] Llynix: you could use gksudo nautilus to get root access but that is dangerous.. with that you can right mouse click and make changes [17:10] Hello, I'm having problems with my sound system, I would guess...I doesn't work, no sound not a thing so I tried to open the the sound mixer and it said that there was a problem with GStremer, and that there may be some package missing, but like 1hour ago everything was fine. [17:10] doink1212: You might find this linux chooser helpful http://www.zegeniestudios.net/ldc/. It asks questions about the hardware and the level of experience of the user and then makes a recommendation. Thats how I first found Ubuntu [17:10] scunizi : this is the complete error that I am getting "http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/209863/" [17:10] DarkMage26, archlinux :/ i know this is ubuntu channel. archlinux-2009.02-core-i686.iso. but i guess the method is the same :) [17:10] http://files.extremeoverclocking.com/download.php?fh=46c48f5eee1de3a374bb34ab1ce36573 [17:11] scunizi : the ideal situation would be to edit permissions some how so they aren't locked in the first place [17:11] pooky [17:11] try updating [17:11] Catman, Oops... Sorry, but you can't download the selected file! :p [17:11] scunizi : the problem started when I installed google desktop [17:11] Dang [17:12] Idhttp://files.extremeoverclocking.com/file.php?f=196 [17:12] Catman: I've already done that.

Please give some guides, is it I have to install some software? The system is on laptop. [17:13] Llynix: about a year ago I read something on how to do that but for the life of me I can't remember where or what the content was.. basically it created a folder/directory that changed permissions on any file that was dropped into it [17:13] Iderik: this is a program for you to make the usb boot to the iso image [17:13] Does anyone know how to get a sierra aircard 881 to work on ubuntu 9.04 [17:13] OrEvA: Synaptic will also search for the best repo.. have you tried that?

I never did like those desktop bars.. [17:14] sudo dpkg --build-dep app wnstn [17:14] wnstn: did you search synaptic for this lib?

[17:20] Hey. I'm trying to get my nVidia Geforce Ti 4200 running on my system with nvidia drivers instead of nv. Can someone help? [17:21] MindVirus: what have you done so far? [17:21] DarkMage26, the only thing I did was attempt to use nvidia drivers. When that failed I switched to nv. [17:21] öj [17:21] DarkMage26, I also got the nvidia driver package. [17:21] MindVirus, did you use the legacy driver [17:21] !ff35 | Amonxz: [17:21] Amonxz:: 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 [17:22] MindVirus: you already tried to install the new driver? [17:22] coz_, I used the one recommended in Hardware Drivers.

What to do? [17:25] tumii: what were you compiling?

[17:26] scunizi : no change there [17:27] tumii: vbox also has repos you can list and just use synaptic.. once you have the .deb sure you can install from cli [17:27] egh, just to make sure I understand this clearly - there is no way to use a newer version of the kernel (I need a feature in a 2.6.30 RC) with Xorg server 1.5 or older? === jimdemontreal is now known as qcjn [17:27] scunizi: kk [17:27] I have a problem with Samba on Ubuntu 9.04 server.

[17:29] hello everyone [17:29] Excuse me Professorx but are you seeing my message? [17:29] ProfessorX: why don't you try.. NX its best [17:29] Then I made sure that I was using nvidia drivers, and it didn't work still. [17:29] MindVirus, ok all you did was install via the hardware drivers correct? [17:29] Yes. [17:29] OrEvA: sorry I'm stuck at this point.. maybe someone else knows the answer [17:29] I then switched back to nv. [17:29] And now it's working. [17:29] oregon: it happens when you request a new IP from your DHCP server, I just increased the lease time to a week :P [17:29] MindVirus, ok go to pastebin.com and paste the entrie contents of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf [17:30] How do I make .debs from source code?

I just wish we had actually gotten somewhere. [17:30] DarkMage26, pardon? [17:30] Black_Phantom: your connection also dc ? [17:31] Black_Phantom: restart but still use 100% cpu usage [17:31] coz_, http://pastebin.com/d21894b55 [17:31] thats really weird [17:31] oregon: there is some good info http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1140094 here [17:31] On the router?

[17:31] MindVirus: they have a program that will make all the needed changes to your xorg config file for you [17:31] Black_Phantom: yep , how to make sure I had install the driver? [17:31] no, the router isn't the culprit [17:31] coz_, DarkMage26: I just wanted to say, thank you in advance. I really appreciate it. [17:31] i just done a cheap fix to kind of avert it rather than bother tackling it :P [17:32] Black_Phantom: any command typing can identified I had installed the driver ? [17:32] I will check that thread MMcGee thank you. Can I chat directly with you or is that forbidden? [17:32] MindVirus, ok it is not using the nvidia driver in xorg.conf so open a terminal gksudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf [17:32] DarkMage26, I am fairly experienced: I can deal with an xorg config file. But with this one, I never set it; it was like this as default. [17:32] MindVirus: you are tryinig to install VNC ? [17:32] BingO, no. [17:32] coz_, I set it to use nv because nvidia fails. [17:32] MindVirus, ah [17:32] MindVirus: ok.. sorry [17:32] Easiest instructions to build .deb from source code? [17:32] BingO, :D No problem. [17:33] It's difficult to follow with all the myriad chats going on at the same time MMcGee. [17:33] MindVirus, did you set that to nv before you just restarted? [17:33] just to make sure I understand this clearly - there is no way to use a newer version of the kernel (I need a feature in a 2.6.30 RC) with Xorg server 1.5 or older? [17:33] ubuntunewbie, try sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd [17:33] No. I set it right after I noticed GDM wouldn't start. [17:33] MindVirus, ok [17:33] Hi, just a quick question. How do I make daily backups of mysql? [17:33] How would I go about moving a whole ubuntu install to another harddrive without losing anything whatsoever? Can I just copy all the files and then re-install GRUB? [17:33] coz_, I'll start highlighting you every line, if that's no problem. I don't want you missing anything I say. [17:33] MindVirus, nope I prefer that [17:33] professor: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/mysqldump.html [17:33] coz_, OK. [17:33] hello everyone my yahoo messenger just started acting funny..I receives message but it just can't send..can anybody give me a clue what might help me ? [17:34] MindVirus, open a terminal sudo apt-ge [17:34] t0rc: use dd [17:34] t0rc: clone the drive .. clonezilla or partimage [17:34] MindVirus, sorry [17:34] Black_Phantom: type already ,now installing [17:34] coz_, It's OK. :) I'm waiting for what I'm going to install. [17:34] MindVirus, in terminal sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [17:34] MindVirus, lets maske sure everything is up to date first [17:34] coz_, you got it. [17:35] coz_, everything's up-to-date. [17:35] scunizi, and once I move it to the other drive, it will run identically? [17:35] Black_Phantom: what should I do next? [17:35] Black_Phantom: restart pc ? [17:35] ubuntunewbie, yep [17:35] i suppose that would be the use of term clone... ;) [17:36] ok brb [17:36] MindVirus, ok go to pastebin.com again and paste the entire contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log [17:36] Hi, just a quick question. How can I specify where to dump mysql information? [17:36] t0rc: I use partimage to image windows and linux drives incase they crash. when they do I just take the image and put it on the new drive .. viola!.. the one thing you have to look for is if an nvidia driver is installed and the other machine is ati (or vice verse) you'll probably end up booting the other machine into text or cli mode. [17:37] MMcGee would you mind a private chat for about 1 minute? [17:37] Just say no if you would rather not, I can take it! [17:37] Hello guys! [17:37] Can someone help me config Evolution? [17:37] scunizi, right right but then just removing the driver and restarting should take care of that, through apt-get or aptitude or something [17:37] Hello dbugger. How are you today? [17:37] any guide on how to use grep? please forgive this Win user [17:37] coz_, http://pastebin.com/m771e4059 [17:37] t0rc: yep [17:37] dbugger: what you need? [17:38] I want to make it so that if I download emails, a copy is stored in the server, but if I erase the email in Evolution, is also erased on the server [17:38] GreifM: open a terminal and type 'man grep' [17:38] OregonJim, Im awesome ty :) you? [17:38] Hey I have a question. My CD Burner won't work on Ubuntu. Says it can't fixate disc. However, when I try to burn on my Dad's machine I can burn ISOs and stuff just fine. So I know its not any of the CDs I'm trying. [17:38] adrees for berly [17:39] MindVirus, ok in terminal gksudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf [17:39] dbugger I am ok thanks. Wish I could help you. I see to remember way way back that it was an option when you set up the email client. [17:39] MindVirus, let me know when that opens [17:39] hello everyone my yahoo messenger just started acting funny..I receives message but it just can't send message..can anybody give me a clue what might help me ? [17:39] Have you set it up already?> [17:39] coz_, :) You mean gksudo gedit. [17:39] It's open, coz_. [17:39] I was looking at a site that tells me to wipe my machine clean and try reinstalling Ubuntu. Should I do this? [17:39] coz_ [17:39] Black_Phantom: nope still not working [17:39] It's weird how hard it is to get the mail client synchronized with the server! Many times I've broken the OS and I've lost all the emails in my server :S [17:40] ok [17:40] Black_Phantom: I dont know what happen [17:40] JohnnyZero: did it ever work in ubuntu? [17:40] Black_Phantom: still using 100% usage [17:40] I know it's not hard to leave a copy in the server but I dont want to erase them in Evolution, and in the backstage keep acumulating crap on the server [17:40] dbuger I completely sympathize. Migh be better to use the forums though.This seems like uncontrolled pandemonium lol. [17:40] MindVirus, ok at the very bottom under Section "Devicre" and just under Option "NoLogo" "True" put Option "Composite" "enable" [17:40] anyone saw andrew_46 [17:40] Ty [17:41] Mage I hadn't tried it until just yesterday believe it or not. Not in the 2 to 3 years I had Ubuntu on it with Intrepid and upgraded to Jaunty. [17:41] coz_, shall I reset Xorg? [17:41] guys I am off cof a lttle whilte. I need to go look at the thread McGee (who seems to have gone for coffee hah hah) showed me. [17:41] MindVirus, save the file [17:41] coz_, of course. [17:41] MindVirus, then open a terminal [17:41] MindVirus, sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24 [17:41] coz_, open. [17:41] JohnnyZero: Is it reading the drive correctly? [17:41] MindVirus, now reboot again [17:42] FYI the problem is Samba reloads periodically by itself, killing all network traffic to the server.

[18:24] nice people here :) [18:24] i like that part [18:24] MindVirus: what's there? [18:24] scunizi, a blank terminal. [18:24] ctmjr: how do I install it while running 9.04 live cd ?

[18:26] ctmjr: yes , it's external hard drive which I can't detect on 9.04 live cd [18:27] ubuntunewbie, I think maybe livecd has limited features, and one of the disabled ones are not detecting external hdds, thats my guess. Because the hdd is entirely not mentioned in fdisk -l [18:27] MindVirus: Don't know if you've seen, but Ctrl-A ? can be helpful [18:27] Stupendoussteve, I'll check it out, thanks. [18:27] ctmjr: 8.04 able to detect ,that's why I choose 8.04 .Who knows i got video problem at 8.04 once I installed [18:27] BingO, wapko: =? = just says how many lines are there...

[19:33] how can I see if acpi is off in this moment?

[19:39] does n1 have a fix for SecondLife's "window creation error" issue? [19:39] jonny_b: FAT or NTFS shouldn't make a difference to ubuntu afaik, and the FAT partition holds your windows installation (i assume), so it will be available in windows per default [19:40] if i run on a live cd can i save settings and files on a usb or hd drive? [19:40] i but xp on 1 part,ubuntu on another and the rest ina 3rd for what i thought would be for file share between the two....thanks for yer help so far [19:40] * damien__ #fossak [19:40] I'd recommend keeping it in FAT, though, as changing it to NTFS would likely require reinstalling windows, and windows should always be installed before ubuntu (linux in general) [19:41] hi [19:41] budo, are you looking to modify the CD or to just save/manipulate files on other media? [19:42] Good evening, zeecat [19:42] hi gravi [19:42] !ask | zeecat [19:42] zeecat: 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. :-) [19:42] is there a good tutorial for setting up an raid5 with encryption and lvm ?

There's no difference in that and doing it within the OS. [19:43] how can i switch between vista and ubunta? how do i know if ive wiped my previous system? [19:43] shesek, Oh, so you want the default video out to be to s-video? [19:44] yep [19:44] if i had saved environmental variables or whatever....and i boot up with a live cd.....can the live cd retrieve information off other media and adjust my environmental variables accordingly ? [19:44] zeecat: When you boot, you should be able to choose the OS you want to boot into [19:44] I don't want to use the computer screen at all; its an HTPC [19:44] zeecat should show in boot options [19:44] You might need to press ESC during bootup, though [19:44] lol thanks graviton, i think i wiped vista [19:45] doh [19:45] Ubuntu has a habit of hiding the grub menu [19:45] ooops [19:45] Apollo2366, now, everytime I restart it disables the TV screen and I have to set it up every time I restart [19:45] Yeah, I did that once [19:45] budo, oh.

[19:46] jonny_b: with regards to mounting the 3rd partition in both OSs, windows will mount anything it can [19:46] Apollo2366, thanks :) [19:47] Ubuntu should be told to do so, either during the installation or by editing /etc/fstab [19:47] ok grav and will i just search for how to do it in ubuntu [19:48] shesek, where in nvidia-settings are the options you want to enable?

[20:52] I kind of gave up on my attempt at creating a web site cause I dont feel the need to learn HTML coding and there doesnt seem to be much in the way of a Linux WYSIWYG web maker app like DreamWeaver. So sad. I was gonna make a site to chare with tutorials and tips for those who visit here. [20:52] mralexandro, ok open a terminal gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common [20:52] mralexandro, when that opens scroll down till you see DISABLED_MODULES="" and change that to DISABLED_MODULES="nv nvidia_new" [20:52] linuxguy2009: not that hard to learn HTML and some basic CSS :) [20:53] what all packages do i downgrade, to get an older kernel? i am on ubuntu 8.04 hardy here. [20:53] mralexandro, let me know when you have done that [20:53] mralexandro, and which video card again? [20:53] maybe Ill have to learn it and make it easy on myself. [20:53] coz_, it is now done. i have a geforce 8400m gs [20:53] linuxguy2009: ,but yeah no really good WYSIWYG's for Linux really, but saying that, Dreamweaver and such will put in junk code anyway, also you can Wine certain versions of Dreamweaver, and with enough RAM virtual machine Windows for it [20:53] True-True [20:54] mralexandro, do you have the driver already downloaded on the desktop? [20:54] linuxguy2009: give kompozer a try, or install Seamonkey and use composser [20:54] rohan: Why would you want to downgrade your kernel? [20:54] !html | linuxguy2009 [20:54] linuxguy2009: html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build web pages. WYSIWYG editors: KompoZer (was Nvu), Iceape Composer, Amaya - Development environments: Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem - For a howto on HTML coding, see: http://www.w3schools.com/ [20:54] coz_, yes, put it in home folder [20:54] mralexandro, ok get a pencil and paper << seriously [20:54] sebsebseb so i'm assuming my shot of my gparted is standard. just need help on understanding the last two paritions and how they relate to each other [20:54] coz_, getting pencel hold on 5 sec [20:54] Yeah i started using Seamokey compozer but I had trouble with resizing tables.Maybe Ill give it another go. [20:54] since i've reinstalled my windows, my grub does not work anymore properly. does the Xubuntu live cd repair grub ? [20:55] !grub [20:55] 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 [20:55] nalidixic: yep extended partition [20:55] is a admin on stage? === Doppp|EeePC2 is now known as Doppp|EeePC [20:55] Anyone help me with a grub problem? On start up the system hangs at stage1.5. This is in a fresh install of ubuntu server 9.04 (It has never booted after installing due to grub error). Hard drive its installed on is a SATA drive via a PCI Sata card. Currently got the PC booted on ubuntu LiveCD. [20:55] coz_, pencel and paper is here [20:55] mralexandro, step #1 ctrl+alt+F1 step #2 login...step #3 cd /home/yourname/ [20:55] sebsebseb so mralexandro i understand the swap partition but what use does sda2 serve? [20:55] ubottu: usefull info there.Thanks. (even though you cant read this) [20:55] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:55] nalidixic: oh you did Ubuntu in a virtual machine on Mac OS X, interesting [20:55] sebsebseb, hey seb [20:55] nalidixic: seems loads of university students like Mac [20:55] Argh why is Ubuntu remix wireless so buggy. I keep on dc-ing. [20:56] mralexandro, step #4 sudo sh NV << make sure that is upper case then hit the tab button to complete the pacakge name [20:56] !ubottu who is op? [20:56] SpacePigeon: hi [20:56] CosmicChaos: do you have a support question? [20:56] mralexandro, then hit enter and answer yest to all then when that is finished type sudo init 6 to reboot [20:56] nalidixic: extended is like a container [20:56] sebsebseb yep. just a temporary copy.. i primarily use PCs at work as a software developer but wanted to give mac a go.. just finishing my BA in computer science on the side. problem is the software dev keeps me super busy :P [20:56] nalidixic: really you only need an extended if going to have more than three partitions as far as I know [20:57] ok [20:57] Is anyone here familiar with the global hooks found on windows which performs keystroke recordings,webpages etc?.....Well I did a search in ubuntu file system and found them there also ranging from recording hooks, -dhc-client hooks, recording hooks etc [20:57] nalidixic: ok that sounds pretty cool, what your doing. do you have another hard disk in there? [20:57] I have sound working with my gateway laptop out of the speakers, but when I plug in headphones I get nothing... does anyone know what I can do to troubleshoot that? [20:57] guntbert: yes i moved to #ubuntu-ops [20:57] mralexandro, now if this works you will have to re do this if you get kernel or xorg updates [20:57] Lysit: is the controller shipset on the PCI card supported in the Linux kernel? [20:57] nalidixic: sda is the first hard disk. sda2 the second [20:57] sebsebseb no i'm running on a macbook atm.. [20:57] Lysit: *chipset [20:57] coz_, sudo init 6 with one space between each of them_ [20:58] nalidixic: ,but your running in a virtual machine so [20:58] sebsebseb: incorrect [20:58] mralexandro, yes one space between each word and number [20:58] mneptok: sda1 instead of sda2, or why am I incorrect? [20:58] nalidixic: sda is the physical disk. sda2 is the second partition on the first physical disk. [20:58] sebsebseb using vmware fusion which allocated a block of HD space for the child OS which is ubuntu in this case [20:58] mneptok: I assume so, it installed well enough, \and I can mount it in the liveCD [20:58] Lysit: does the card have a BIOS you can access? [20:59] mneptok: ah yes the numbering [20:59] coz_, so you actually say that if i chose that recommended driver, i will not have to worry about between each update of kernel and xorg? [20:59] It has a bios, though no options show, just lists attachted disks [20:59] mralexandro, right it will be updated automatically if you choose the restricted drivers in ubuntu [20:59] nalidixic: Linux stuff starts with 0 or in this case just sda, for example the first partition for Grub the boot loader would be 0,0 on the first hard disk, and the second would be 0,1 on that first hard disk [20:59] coz_, is it to late? [20:59] mralexandro, other wise you will have to reinstall the driver for each xorg or kernel update [20:59] perfect [21:00] mralexandro, not if you didnt run the sh already [21:00] mralexandro, its not too late [21:00] sebsebseb so 1,0 would be first partition on second physical disk? [21:00] nalidixic: in fact open a terminal and [21:00] Lysit: see if you can switch the card into RAID mode. that should use the Linux AHCI driver, which is a bit more robust. [21:00] ok Im outta here guys Ill be back laters. [21:00] mralexandro, just dont run the sh nvidia command in text console [21:00] nalidixic: yep should be I think [21:00] sebsebseb mkay [21:00] nalidixic: anyway open a terminal in your vm. and gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst [21:00] coz_, nope i did not, but will you still walk me trough the other one, even after all this work? :p [21:00] nalidixic: and you can see how things are done [21:00] mralexandro, if this manual install works then you cannot install the restriced drive [21:01] version [21:01] coz_, but can you help me with restricted drive? [21:01] i think i want that, since it automatic updates [21:01] !dualboot > nalidixic [21:01] nalidixic, please see my private message [21:01] mralexandro, welll there is not much to help with you just go to /syste/adminstration/ hardware drivers and install the "preferred" driver listed there and reboot [21:02] mralexandro, but didnt you already try that? [21:02] thanks ubottu [21:02] !grub > nalidixic [21:02] nalidixic, please see my private message [21:02] !thanks | nalidixic [21:02] nalidixic: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [21:02] coz_, not after uninstalling nvidia driver [21:02] lol [21:02] yo [21:02] nalidixic: yeah I thought you might find thoset two useful, so I got it to pm you them [21:03] sebsebseb thanks for your help [21:03] mralexandro, ah well its up to you actually [21:03] coz_, what does this function do: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-source [21:03] whats a good cddb id3 tag editor for ubuntu [21:03] i will probably be back later with more questions. [21:03] !install > nalidixic [21:03] nalidixic, please see my private message [21:03] we'll see how things go [21:03] mralexandro, it is installing the requred dependecies for compiling this driver [21:03] mralexandro, among other things for compiling [21:03] I'm using OSS with an Intel sound card on my laptop and can't get audio to come out of the headphone jack... can anyone help? [21:03] joining [21:03] coz_, the restricted one? should i exectue it first? [21:04] nalidixic: ok no problem, why a paper about Ubuntu? and good luck with that [21:04] mralexandro, well it is recommended [21:04] Is anyone here familiar with the global hooks found on windows which performs keystroke recordings,webpages etc?.....Well I did a search in ubuntu file system and found them there also ranging from recording hooks, -dhc-client hooks, recording hooks etc [21:04] sebsebseb just something that sparked interest [21:04] sebsebseb later man [21:05] coz_, sudo apt-get install build-essential or sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-source? [21:05] hello [21:05] hi tony1 [21:05] mralexandro, for the manula install it is sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-source [21:05] if i have a word problem that i need help with what channel should i try to find [21:05] nalidixic: well we are both here still :D [21:06] coz_, what about for the restricted driver? [21:06] mralexandro, no that's not necessary [21:06] coz_, oh ok>D [21:07] anybody got Ubuntu working on Eee Top? [21:07] Kirill_: on *what* ? [21:07] nalidixic: you went away or whatever, ok bye [21:08] yofel: http://www.stockwatch.in/files/asus-eee-top-et1602.jpg === Nathan is now known as Guest54160 [21:08] coz_, well i will restart computer. then check the restricted driver and see what happends. thanks alot man!:D raelly appreciate [21:08] mneptokL I think it is in raid mode (can't create a RAID set due to there just being a single drive in). Still hangs at grub loading stage1.5 [21:08] mralexandro, ok guy good luck :) [21:08] the c-syntax highlighting in my vim is _very_ minimal... [21:09] does anyone else have this problem? [21:09] Lysit: check the BIOS of the machine itself [21:09] linuxguy2009: yeah, I have all updates [21:10] tony1: what "word"? msoffice? [21:10] mneptok: The motherboard? The sata is via a PCI card, there are no options concerning raid on the motherboard that I've seen [21:10] hey ikey [21:11] guntbert.....noo like a math related word problem/question [21:11] Hey bishop [21:12] Hey ArcherSeven [21:12] tony1: then /join #math could be helpful [21:12] hey ikey. [21:12] they didnt no it [21:13] Okay, let me rephrase, doesn't anybody know anything about Eee Top here? :P [21:14] tony1: *this* channel is strictly for ubuntu support, but I can try to help - meet me in #math [21:14] anyone know how to turn off screensavers? i thought i turned it off in preference - screensaver, but it still came on. [21:14] coz_, it does not list any propriatary drivers:/ [21:15] mralexandro, ???? [21:15] coz_, under system administration hardware drivers, nothing is listed now [21:15] mralexandro, ah oh [21:15] :/ [21:16] coz_, synaptics and install? [21:16] perhaps.. [21:16] mralexandro, do you know the driver for that card ? it is probably the nvidia-glx-180 driver === perlnovide is now known as perlnovice [21:17] i am sry, i dont know [21:17] coz_, could i check that anywhere? === pagefault_ is now known as pagefault [21:18] coz_, i think i am glx-new [21:20] mralexandro, ok I would ask someone with just a bit more experience with this though before making a final decision... always go to two or three docktors before going under thie knife :) [21:21] coz_, i am not goin under the knife i am just trying some antibiotics:) [21:22] mralexandro, oh ok :) [21:22] howdy folks [21:22] How do I get thttpd to run cgi scripts? [21:22] coz_, if i install the glx-new will it be detected in hardware drivers you think? [21:22] mralexandro, so did you decide to install nvidia driver from repositories ? [21:22] How do you have an application run on startup? [21:22] albatros, yes [21:22] mralexandro, it should be you could always run nvidia-xconfig afterwards [21:23] ok [21:23] Right now I get a 403, "The requested url resolves to a file which is marked executable but is not a cgi file" [21:23] aeonoris: system > preferences > startup applicaitons [21:23] Hello. [21:24] mralexandro, well in my experience if you get into safe mode after restart you already broke lots of things and simply installing nvidia-glx-new will not help [21:24] i usually ended up installing drivers from nvidia web [21:24] albatros, i am not in safemode now, it started normall [21:24] with full resolution, but no graphic accel [21:24] i see [21:25] i heard its tricky getting ati drivers working [21:25] so the first step would be installing one of those nvidia packages [21:25] noo wait [21:25] would tv-out work with the xorg driver? [21:25] go system -> administration -> hardware drivers [21:25] there should be NVIDA not used or not enabled [21:25] ye i got none [21:26] hello [21:26] ATI :D [21:26] albatros, there is nothing under hardware drivers [21:26] aha nvm [21:26] wow [21:26] albatros, will try installing the glx-new, restart and see if it detects [21:26] hmm... [21:26] well good luck [21:26] will be back in 5:) [21:26] sebsebseb, merci. [21:26] i'll be here [21:26] thanks!:) [21:26] albatros: would u know that?

(virtual console) [21:33] www-data is a user not folder the folder is just /var/www so id be chown webuser [21:33] wildc4rd: control-C?
