[00:00] In response to Guest33521, isnt there a program called jackd for this? [00:00] Hi, i have a sound issue with Amarok, every other sound in the system works, but not Amarok, it stopped working all fo a sudden, Help? [00:00] i kno i tryed but i chouldnt get that to reconize any sound [00:00] It didnt work here either :p [00:01] the only solution i found was to buy a cable which plugs into the speaker port and the microphone/linein port and use the default sound recorder [00:01] i tryed that didnt work [00:01] Then i havent got any ideas, anyone else? [00:02] @Guest33521: In a show of Category5.tv, he said this: Go to System -> User Options -> Sound and choose first PulseAudio, then ALSA, then OSS. Reason being, PA is best, ALSA second best, and OSS third best. [00:03] ok ill try that thanks. [00:03] will that work for intrgrated to? [00:05] hey, when is firefox 3.5 going to be OFFICIALLY released in the repositories? [00:05] knasto: In Karmic. [00:05] knasto: when it's tested i think [00:05] knasto: It will not be "officially" in jaunty or earlier, ever. [00:05] !ff35 > knasto [00:05] knasto, please see my private message [00:05] lfaraone, thats unfortunate [00:05] how can i get firefox . not mine feild [00:06] Guest33521: sudo apt-get install firefox [00:06] How do I run Youtube -dl? [00:06] giampiero: youtube-dl url [00:06] lfaraone: i thought ff3.5 beta was already in the repositories, and they are close to releasing it there [00:06] knasto: No, it's a good idea. We never give new upstream versions to users in -updates unless there's a very good reason, such as a security fix we can't backport. [00:06] but that gave me minefield. [00:06] giampiero: sudo apt-get install youtube-dl [00:06] !ff3.5 [00:06] 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 [00:07] Guest33521: then you are using karmic probably [00:07] I installed it, how do I download a video? [00:07] nope [00:07] janti [00:07] i have problem with gnome due to either cancelling an upgrade to jaunty (via "cancel" button while it was downloading), or earlier problems with gnome on 8.04, which, however, were seemingly fixed by upgrade to 8.10 in the meantime. i managed to upgrade to jaunty from console, but the system don't boot properly, showing only the items on the desktop after login and no controls at all. dpkg... [00:07] ...(recovery mode) results in "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!" with freeze everytime, and aptitude asks for 'dpkg --configure -a' repeatedly and states there are "95 partially installed packages" including 'xserver-xorg' which it can't fix when tries. [00:07] giampiero: i told you how [00:07] giampiero: please listen to what i say [00:07] Interesting. I didn't know they were going to SRU it. [00:07] giampiero, you could have just used a bookmark O.o === Bhavic1 is now known as Bhavic [00:07] lfaraone, ok i see [00:08] im back [00:08] Hi, I'm having some sound issues. speaker-test gives "ALSA lib pcm.c:2205:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM dmixer; Playback open error: -17,File exists""ALSA lib pcm.c:2205:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM dmixer; Playback open error: -17,File exists". When I set the device to PulseAudio in the Sound prefs and do a test, I hear the tone but it is inturrupted every few seconds by silence. (it isn't continuous) [00:08] anyone know how to remove the floppy from places menu?? [00:08] Linux-Rookie [00:08] do you have a floppy drive? [00:08] or just remove the places menu? [00:08] Linux-Rookie: Do you need to continue to access the floppy drive at all? [00:08] rski please be patient, I'm afraid I misunderstood. I installed Youtube-dl, how do I download a video now? [00:09] in nautilus search how do you do a NOT search, i want to find every file that doesnt end in .mp3 [00:09] i do not have a physical floppy [00:09] then that is a bios option [00:09] giampiero: use the command youtube-dl urlofvideo [00:09] nor do i use floppys [00:09] Linux-Rookie: well, you can right-click the menue and remove it, but it'll still appear in Nautilus. [00:09] giampiero: just how i said it last time [00:09] giampiero: i'm patient [00:09] Linux-Rookie: Then disable the floppy drive in your BIOS? [00:09] rski thanks now it's clear, I will give it a try. [00:09] look in your bios (the black screen when you turn it on) for the option to go into setup, get into setup, and look for an option to do with 3.5'' drives, and disable it [00:10] well, now i removed both applications and system aswell [00:10] great [00:10] jonathancw: Any luck. [00:10] Linux-Rookie: you can readd back all three with right-click and add. [00:10] Linux-Rookie: but it's an all-or-nothing. (you can alternatively use the "ubuntu menu button" which is like a start button) [00:10] kn100, it's 3.5 floppy disk controllers i think [00:11] so its inpossible to remove one of tree? === Ashfire is now known as Ashfire908 [00:12] rski: where do I find the file after download? In the Home folder? [00:12] giampiero: of course [00:12] does anybody know why bug #330824 (crash on deleting files in ext4) is marked as 'fix committed'? It's still happening for me on current jaunty [00:13] giampiero: yeap it's name dosen't print untill it's completed thou [00:13] solomon: that means that the package has not been released yet. [00:13] or where i can get this theoretical committed fix? :) [00:13] solomon: but it's been fixed somewhere. [00:13] rski: one more question: have you ever downloaded file from Rapidshare (I change to another subject)? [00:14] lfaraone: ah, fair enough... there isn't say an update channel with not-yet-released linux kernel packages someplace is there? [00:14] solomon: the ug has been fixet and uploaded in the repositories [00:14] hi [00:14] giampiero: sure loads of times [00:14] ok, so the gnome menu is "more" like what i want, but i cant add a "system" menu [00:14] solomon: possibly in -proposed. [00:14] !proposed | solomon [00:14] Sorry, I don't know anything about proposed [00:14] ahah [00:15] rski: it seemed to me that the download was very slow compared to the same in Windows environment. Is that correct? [00:15] "windows environment" ??? wtf ?? [00:15] hrm, no luck there, i'm already following jaunty-proposed, no changes [00:15] giampiero: can't confirm or deny haven't used windows in a few years [00:15] dSlaM: i guess he means a room with windows :P [00:16] i can always boot off a stock debian cd to delete my files [00:16] giampiero, i usuall notice the opposite (ubuntu being faster) [00:16] i mean, the big buttload of files i need to delete in order to free up a few hundred gigs of space to resume normal operations :) [00:16] i messed up my file system somehow, when i rebooted the system checked the hardrive and fsck was not able to fix it, it said that my hd was in read only mode, i did a clean install and then when i tired to boot it told me that my hd could not be mouted..how do i fix this [00:16] is their a voice chat for pidgin? [00:16] onestly i don't understand where is the problem [00:16] h [00:16] kudi1: You may have a bad disk. [00:16] hi [00:16] linux_ no [00:16] rski: I mean, did you experienc a download slowdown with Rapidshare, some kind of stop-and-go? It took me more than 30 min. to download 45MB with a 4 Mbits internet connection. [00:16] !hello > belial__ [00:16] belial__, please see my private message [00:16] use skype for voice chat [00:17] k [00:17] linux_: you can, however, use Ekiga. [00:17] Ok so I figured that 2 soundcards were making gtkrecordmydesktop to get cornfused so I rebooted and set onboard sound to disabled and booted back up and still no beans for that app.Are there any other good screencast apps for Ubuntu? [00:17] giampiero: nope [00:17] anyway i'm sure somebody will be able to help me [00:17] linux_: that's free software and installed by default on Ubuntu. It uses SIP. [00:17] i can't use the digits on my keyboard [00:17] why ? :( [00:18] dSlaM, numlock? [00:18] lol n,op [00:18] where can i get ekiga is it on ubuntu? [00:18] rski: Ok maybe I should try again. What kind of file format is flv, by the way? [00:18] it's like nulock doesnt't exists [00:18] no way to activate it [00:18] lfranone: how do i know for sure [00:18] linux_: ... Yes === Mars6729 is now known as MarsLog [00:18] dSlaM, is it just recently? [00:18] i don't understand [00:18] linuxit was installed in Jaunty by default [00:18] giampiero: flash video [00:18] linux_: It's in your "Internet" submenu [00:18] my keyboard is 5 month old [00:19] does anybody have any experience with luks? [00:19] but the prooblem is 2 month old [00:19] oh right got it thx [00:19] i press num lock and there it is anyway [00:19] i can't figure why [00:19] anybody? :) [00:19] how do i add a shortcut to filesystem? [00:19] dSlaM, is your keyboard layout correct? [00:20] wassup! [00:20] Linux-Rookie: where do you want it to point? [00:20] hi [00:20] desktop [00:20] Linux-Rookie: on the desktop, or to the desktop? [00:20] i think so ? anyway i didn't have any problem two month ago [00:20] Hi folks, I'm on Jaunty, well for a while at least, and I am having some real issues with firefox 3.0.11, it is really unstable and is taking kde down with it, anyone else seen anything like this? [00:20] on desktop to filesystem [00:20] ajehals: It's probably a plugin/addon you have installed. [00:20] Linux-Rookie: right-click and create a launcher. [00:21] Linux-Rookie: the command you want is "nautilus /" [00:21] lsdfpvodfvpodfv;ldbv;dlfbk;flk..............frustrations [00:21] lfaraone: I've disabled all the plugins I have installed and its more that it takes down the DE that is causing concern... [00:21] ok then, ty [00:21] cant get recording to work still [00:22] most likely it's KDE thats taking down firefox [00:22] no love for luks? Too bad... [00:22] rski: Ok thanks. Such a chat room is very useful to get help whit Ubuntu for someone who, like me, has installed it only a short time ago. [00:22] what's the command for the script that allows to customize xorg.conf ? [00:22] dslaM to reset it - or edit it - ? [00:22] joebodo: well I can't quite see why I could reach that conclusion, KDE is stable if I use konqueror as a web browser... [00:22] ajehals: can you explain? [00:23] ajehals: if x server is crashing something serious like a bad video driver tends to be at fault [00:23] joebodo: customize it, so edit it [00:23] Details: Failed to execute child process "Neutilus" (No such file or directory) [00:23] what now? [00:23] Linux-Rookie: spell nautilus correctly [00:23] legend2440, i was taking a shower:) i installed manuall yes. there was no 180 driver before that. i believe it was 169 something [00:23] dslam sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf [00:23] hahaha! oops [00:24] joebodo: isn't it any debian script who can help me ? [00:24] lfaraone: yeah, after a random period of use everyhting becomes utterly unresponsive, about 50% of the time I can get back to a tty, kill GDM and restart a desktop session, 25% of the time I cant get back to a tty and the rest of the time I simply end up with a brief scroll of what looks like a kernel panick and a reboot. [00:24] dslam sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf [00:24] ajehals: sounds like a KDE bug. [00:24] ajehals: why do you think it's FF? [00:25] yep i undertood thx [00:25] lfaraone: - Because it doesn't happen if firefox is not in use. I should add that there is nothing useful being logged... [00:25] thank you very much everyboy have a good night. [00:25] ajehals: you checked syslog? [00:25] can somone please help with my reording [00:26] How to figure out (and set) what user apache runs as? [00:26] ajehals: a single program should not be able to crash x server any thing that does has exposed a flaw in x server or a binary component it is using [00:27] you can try running firefox from the command line [00:27] lfaraone: as I said, nothing useful, once I saw "Jul 5 00:17:04 laptop-andy kernel: [ 2808.971005] Pid: 4842, comm: firefox Tainted: " and then a reboot... [00:27] kbrosnan: - a single app shouldn't cause a kernel panic and a reboot, but something is. [00:27] ajehals you may have bad memory - or some other hardware problem [00:28] what would the command for "computer:///" be then?? [00:28] joebodo: I'd agree in principal, but this is only happening under Jaunty not with other OS's installed... [00:29] Linux-Rookie: "nautilus computer:///" [00:29] My desktop response on jaunty seems to be pretty sluggish compared to windows xp. Ihave an AMD turio 64 bit with 1.12 gigs running on an ati x200m video card. anyone experience this symptom and know of any fixes? [00:29] how do i remove a drive that is not listed in /etc/mtab? it is /dev/sbd1, but there is no corresponding entry in /media or anywhere else. === Mars6729 is now known as MarsLog [00:30] pk23_ you run compiz or advanced desktop effects ? [00:30] ewsubach: does 'mount' show it being mounted somewhere? [00:30] the logical answer would be computer:///nautilus [00:30] but yeye [00:30] joebodo, i have compiz fusion enabled, yes [00:30] Dr_Willis: no [00:30] guess i should try disabling [00:30] for the filesystem, i ment [00:30] ewsubach, do you have access to it (shortcut on desktop)? [00:30] pk23_ ati does not perform well unfortunately - i switched to nvidia and it's night and day === Emmett_ is now known as Corbomite [00:31] yea, i think i need a new laptop anyways [00:31] MK13: no, it is not formatted to be readable, so it doesn't show up [00:31] ewsubach, then you will have to format it [00:31] pk23_ turning off compiz seems to make it much more usable - [00:31] joebodo, i will definitely try that when i get home [00:32] ewsubach, are you wondering how to format it? [00:32] anyone here use google desktop search, starting it as root to index everything? === funkyHat is now known as funkybori [00:32] it only searches my home dir I blv [00:32] how to edit xorg.conf ?

[00:33] thanks:D [00:33] Even if this isn't FF related directly, firefox is playing up, switching between FF and other apps seems to cause FF to hang rather too regularily too. [00:33] RHorse, i have to [00:33] :0 [00:33] just add one line [00:33] this line: Option 'SHMConfig' 'true' [00:34] joebodo, sorry I didn't understand the relevance to my q :( hope I didnt miss something crucial [00:34] ewsubach, u there? [00:34] MK13: no. rather i should have said it's encrypted [00:34] how can i find what graphics card i have (built in i think) and what graphics driver im using? [00:34] it would make more sense if filesystem or "nautilus" was placed under computer:/// [00:34] pedestrianentran try lshw command [00:34] RHorse:thanks [00:34] codeshah sorry - sent to wrong nick [00:34] ;) [00:34] MK13: as long as it's not currently in use, is it safe to dismount? [00:35] Is there a well written doc on Compiz? All the how to Ive seen are pretty shabby [00:35] i actually do not think my synaptics driver is installed? [00:36] how could i play a video as the desktop background? [00:37] M1K3 doesnt VLC player do that [00:37] kn100, i wouldn't know, i never use it [00:37] i think that does it [00:37] M1K3 geez [00:38] Trying to play MOV files in Ubuntu but I can't rewind or FF [00:38] M1K3: use windows vista ;) [00:38] lol [00:38] sadly, i only use vlc on windows... ubuntu's are efficient enough for met [00:38] is there a page somewhere that has the differences between ubuntu server and desktop editions? [00:39] how can i find what graphics driver im using? Googleearth is running poorly id like to try another driver [00:39] pedestrianentran have you googled it? I had to install something or other file to get it to act normally on my feisty system [00:39] ewsubach, i stay away from vista as long as i can... [00:40] does anybody know a command to list that name of my motherboard? [00:40] pedestrianentran: Do you know your Graphics card first of all? [00:40] I don't know what kind of mother-board that I need. [00:40] pedestrianentran: if you're using ubuntu, system->administration->hardware drivers [00:40] Glenjamin, mainly server editions are cli only and have slightly different kernels [00:41] mark-t is a moron. Thank you for listening [00:41] so if was planning to run a fileserver/freevo box, should i go for desktop, and add server stuff - or server and add desktop stuff?

[01:15] levtron: lol [01:15] PerryArmstrong: it has been pointed out by myself about 5 years ago but no one seems to care. Delete the prerm script for mysql and you will be able to remove it [01:15] bruenig; haha...i need to work with drupal...so i need lamp server [01:15] hello.. can anyone help? : in vbox 3 ... i start windows xp.. and i want 3d acceleration.... but it does not work... :( [01:15] rob__: let me look again here. [01:15] phantasmyc [01:15] past your output [01:15] EaxE: use awk. i don't know syntax, but you would want to print $1 $2 [01:16] cy21: you might have better luck in #vbox.... [01:16] thanks losher [01:16] PerryArmstrong: the problem is this: whenever you try to remove a daemon, the apt gods have decided that a prerm script must exist in the package to automatically try to stop the daemon before removal. Of course, if the software is screwed up or not working or whatever, the attempt to stop the daemon fails which causes a non-zero exit code which then causes the prerm script to fail and the removal in general to fail. [01:16] anyone know of a contact sheet creator for ubuntu [01:16] PerryArmstrong: but no one cares, they keep on with their dumb rule [01:16] hey [01:16] vbox additionals cd image [01:17] i want active 3d chat on imvu.com [01:17] bruenig; so how do i delete the prerm script [01:17] PerryArmstrong: it is in /var somehwere, I forget exactly. Do locate prerm and you will see where they are [01:17] hey [01:17] PerryArmstrong: then delete the one for mysql [01:17] is there anyone here that can help me with virtualbox? [01:17] thomas ca you help me [01:18] what do u need help with damiano?

[01:23] damiano, use wine [01:23] i need hel'p for active 3d chat imvu.com [01:23] damiano, read what I just said [01:23] !wine | damiano [01:23] damiano: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [01:23] yeha i have wine [01:23] Im wondering if it is as simple as just trying hw:0 hw:1 hw:2 etc to try each card? hmm [01:24] damiano, also dont repeat [01:24] bazhang, why not? [01:24] does hplip have a built in scan app or must I use xsane? [01:24] stickboy, this is Ubuntu support ONLY. [01:24] Looks like it might be [01:24] but wine is for window to ubuntu and not ubutu to windows [01:25] damiano, check the appdb it works.

Would I be correct? [01:31] rob_: Man this is strange. Im looking at the Jack Control window and it lists the available devices as hw:1 C-Media Headset and then hw:1,0 USB Audio. I wish i knew where it was reading these numbers from. [01:32] Testing hello. [01:32] !echo hello [01:32] Sorry, I don't know anything about echo hello [01:32] !ubottu [01:32] Hi!

I'm getting an error 11 in grub and I think it has something to do with which partition is flagged as "boot". Would I be correct? === Guest94055 is now known as cafemigao [01:33] rob_: ok cool that explains that. Its virtually mapped.cool now to just find where there kept track of or listed. [01:34] Has anybody put ubuntu 0.04 on a gateway solo 9500 laptop? I would like to find out if the problems I'm have are normal and can they be fixed. [01:34] I dont want to have to rely on jack control or any other app to just get info to get something else working.Thats lame. [01:34] hehe [01:34] oops make that 9.04 [01:34] hello [01:34] linuxguy2009> Just to be clear what is that you need to achieve again. [01:36] I want to use gtkrecordmydesktop to do screencasts for YouTube to make tutorials to help folks here. gtkrecordmydesktop has to know what device to use or for a user to use jack. I have no idea how to use jack I tried and failed. [01:37] linuxguy2009: you should check out posting to blip.tv [01:37] linuxguy2009: xvidcap is another program if you're interested [01:38] xvidcap any easier to enable audio I hope? [01:38] hehe [01:38] linuxguy2009> ok hold on [01:39] I am making a live cd based on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization - how do I add the user to the video group? [01:39] I need help please. I need to know how to reset the video parameters on my laptop. I tried to add an external monitor, but now I can only see a white screen with a blue line [01:39] linuxguy2009: works like a charm for me [01:39] ewsubach: Installing right this sec. [01:39] anyone use hplip? [01:42] I cannot see anything on my screen but a white screen, a blue line and a pink line. How can I restore the video parameters? [01:43] !X [01:43] The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [01:43] ' [01:43] '-' [01:44] ok, so I am a linux noob using ubuntu right now. what is better in ubuntu than in windows 7? [01:44] something cool ubuntu does better than windows? [01:44] because I cant find it [01:44] algum br ai? |: [01:44] linuxguy2009: if you have problems, check here before claiming it doesn't work: http://xvidcap.wiki.sourceforge.net/faq [01:44] akore, you may not find an answer for that question [01:45] akore, it depends on what you need to do [01:45] akore: you decide [01:45] akore: linux (and windows) are just tools.. use the tools that do the jobs you need to do. [01:45] and i agree with newser [01:45] akore, security I believe is much better than windows [01:45] akore: all your apps are kept up to date just like the OS. [01:46] I also agree with akore Security in Linux is amazingly bettter then in windows. [01:46] linuxguy2009> how did you install it , [01:46] rob__: add/remove [01:46] so far the integration of everything is pretty nice, esp the notification I got when you said my name in here [01:46] akore: and you get tons of free apps. unlike W where you get ..ummm notepad and solitaire [01:46] akore, you will not hear a problem with viruses on linux, because they do not work [01:46] i'm getting an error 11 in grub and I think it has something to do with which partition is flagged as "boot". Would I be correct? [01:47] CarlFK: I get my apps for free anyway [01:47] Ok so I have a machine, with 2 IP's. It can't connect to anything on the network, but anything on the network can connect to it. I didn't even know it was possible to have two IP's. How do I get it to work with the network and the internet again? [01:47] akore, but in linux you get them free legally [01:47] akore: err.. that notification has little to do with 'linux' its just a feature of whatever irc client you are using. [01:47] linuxguy2009> doyou have a video camera as well connected [01:47] akore: pretty much your life will be better, unless your job demands that you use windows. then you will be forever conflicted [01:47] Has anybody put ubuntu 9.04 on a gateway solo 9500 laptop? I would like to find out if the problems I'm having with the power and video are normal and can they be fixed. [01:48] rob__: no i dont [01:48] dabukalam, the error is .. 11: File not found :: This error is returned if the specified filename cannot be found, but everything else (like the disk/partition info) is OK. [01:48] Cant get xvidcap to capture sound either. [01:48] linuxguy2009> lookin at it , it just reads /dev/ for the hardware [01:49] holy crap, when i try to watch streaming divx it gets uber choppy and is unplayable [01:49] and we have all ready confirmed that its there [01:49] what do i need to get smooth playback on sites like stage6 [01:49] rob__: Why in gods name is it this hard.Wow. [01:49] ewsubach: I just looked over http://xvidcap.wiki.sourceforge.net/faq - can I tell it to output a dv stream to stdout? [01:49] akore, I personally use linux to buy my stuff online, because I am sure there are no keyloggers hidden behind my system unless I put them [01:50] it looks like more of a application issue , with GTk [01:50] CarlFK: no idea, I just used it right after install and had no hitches [01:50] akore, you will be probably looking for the gstreamer codecs [01:51] I was really hoping to use the USB headset and just plug it in and go when i wanted to do a screencast tutorial. [01:51] hello [01:51] Hey guys. Real stickler for video quality here. Im cant seem to remove screen tearing at all when using nvidia's vdpau [01:51] akore, apps - add/remove - gstreamer ffmpeg [01:52] have a question about partitioning. [01:52] dotblank3> your lucky I cant get my gforce to work at all, [01:52] linuxguy2009: although less than ideal, there is nothing to say you can't run 2 seperate programs, one for video, one for audio, and combine them [01:52] akore: also be sure you re using the proper restricted video card drivers. (depending on your card) [01:52] linuxguy2009: this tends to be the case to get the best of both worlds [01:52] Hmm Stage6? stage6.com is no more... [01:53] I have a 1080p monitor and vdpau makes it run movies silky smooth but when there is a lot of motion it completely crumbles with screen tearing. [01:53] Dr_Willis> went yonks ago [01:53] After the latest kernel update, my computer boots in low graphics mode because my nvidia drivers need to be run in the root console in recovery mode, but after I run them I get errors like [xxxx.xxxxxxxx] ata4.00 status: [DRDY ERR] or [UNC] for hours [01:53] rob__: but ive sene it mentioned twice in here now today.. as if it has been reborn.. or somthing.. :P [01:53] ewsubach: Thats actually a realy good idea. I have a Boss BR-1600 recording studio here and a good Rode condenser mic I could use. That would sound really good. [01:53] Dr_Willis: I said like stage6, I use a different site now [01:53] ewsubach: What app would i use to combine the wav audio with the GTkrecordmydesktop video OGM together? [01:53] akore: i watch justin.tv all day long :) [01:54] It is the opposite from the usual one. I have a system that is all Ubuntu. I've been handling my windows needs with VMWare, but now I find the need to create a real windows partition so I can synch my IPhone. (This doesn't work under VMWare when you have to download a new IPhone OS version - craps out, known bug.) So I need a real Windows partition just for that. What is easiest way to carve a partition out of an Ubuntu system [01:54] while it is running? [01:54] akore: flash is often the blame for many 'web site videos' being rather poor. [01:54] Dr_Willis> you need to check there leaveing video [01:54] this is purely divx [01:54] linuxguy2009: i don't use mixers much. couldn't help you [01:54] linuxguy2009> cant help on that side of things [01:54] akore: got a url for us to test? [01:54] akore: perferably one thats not XXX. [01:55] Ok maybe ill have to install a few video editors and check out the features of each. [01:55] Dr_Willis: yep [01:55] rhythmbox have some tool to sync with iPod.. [01:55] Dr_Willis: just a sec [01:55] akore, stage6 was skippy for me too.. but it appears to be a lack of bandwidth from their side. [01:55] Thanks to all of you for your help its greatly apreciated! [01:56] is that directed at me, Kellerman? [01:56] After the latest kernel update, my computer boots in low graphics mode because my nvidia drivers need to be run in the root console in recovery mode, but after I run them I get errors like [xxxx.xxxxxxxx] ata4.00 status: [DRDY ERR] or [UNC] for hours [01:56] yeah) [01:56] stevecoh1 did you try that? [01:56] At this point I'm probably more interested in carving out a partition than experiementing with another IPhone tool. [01:57] stevecoh1 so, no questions. [01:57] Dr_Willis: http://watchmovies.110mb.com/2sh.php?a=6025507/9d89fe07 [01:57] ok chaps and any females in here , Well I hope there is,. I have a Agp Gforce 6200 , ubuntu ulimate 9.04 useing the lates 180 nvida drivers, and cant get the dam this work [01:57] *thing [01:57] stevecoh1, resize one of your partitions and format it ntfs. that simple. [01:57] I need a collective brain storm on this [01:57] Has anybody put ubuntu 9.04 on a gateway solo 9500 laptop? I would like to find out if the problems I'm having with the power and video are normal and can they be fixed. [01:58] Dr_Willis: watched it through windows 7 last night w/o any problems [01:58] akore: watching it here - no problems.. (so far) [01:58] Dr_Willis: using divx web player anyway [01:58] does anyone use hplip [01:58] Dr_Willis: fullscreen [01:58] hmm? No, I have a question - what is best way to carve a new partition out of a running Ubuntu system? [01:58] I can't install my graphics card drivers nvidia GTS 250 [01:58] stevecoh1: boot with livecd and use partition editor [01:59] akore: it fullscreens.. [01:59] stevecoh1, or gparted cd [01:59] what's livecd? [01:59] stevecoh1: the livecd you used to install [01:59] !gparted | stevecoh1 [01:59] stevecoh1: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php [01:59] < Macfuddy> what driver dose it install [01:59] is it the 180 ? [01:59] nvida [01:59] akore: its also using the totem 'plugin' to watch. theres mplayer, and vlc plugins that could watch the movie also . but i am just using the totem one. For sites like this. I tend to download the movie. I find it gives better playback. (the videodownloader extension for firefox is good for that task) [01:59] stevecoh1, since it seems you're not well versed.. a gparted live cd would be the easiest route [02:00] rob_:185.18.14 [02:00] akore: i just came in here, do you have the mplayer plugin [02:00] yepp same as me [02:00] nothing [02:00] I installed GParted but it won't let me carve from my root partition. So it would have to be done from a bootable CD. GParted on a CD sounds like it would cut it for me. [02:00] thiebaude: appears to be the case [02:00] rob__:185.18.14 After the latest kernel update, my computer boots in low graphics mode because my nvidia drivers need to be run in the root console in recovery mode, but after I run them I get errors like [xxxx.xxxxxxxx] ata4.00 status: [DRDY ERR] or [UNC] for hours [02:00] but in xorg.conf change the driver to vesa and all is well [02:00] akore: i went to that link and mplayer loads the video [02:01] Dr_Willis: how do I try this totem plugin? [02:01] but nv and nvida driver no longer work [02:01] How can I configure a NAS hdd to work with an offline router, and use wireless internet from other source at the same time? [02:01] i have the same issue with mine.

Looking for help on how to set up Ubuntu to use a network proxy to help hide my IP address and all. [02:03] thanks downloading GParted Live CD Image now. [02:03] is there like a Page Reader addon for Firefox [02:03] or an System Wide text to speach thing [02:04] jorknow do you know anonynous proxy ip addr? [02:04] stevecoh1, you will put the cd in and boot to the cd. once you have it burnt to disk [02:04] jorknow: find the address of a proxy, set up firefox to use that proxy...tor is another option, you can even get a firefox plugin for that [02:04] no, im new to all this stuff. trying to hide my torrent activity from my colleges network. I'm fairly new to Ubuntu also. [02:05] how can I setup a basic lan between ubunntu and win [02:05] jorknow: a proxy won't help much [02:05] is there anything out there that can help then? [02:05] newser: GET RID OF BLOODY WIN [02:05] yes [02:05] delete windows [02:05] Dr_Willis: yea its using totem [02:05] WINDOWS IS TORTURE AND IT SUX [02:05] Yes, thanks, bastidrazor, I think I know what to do. [02:05] you also must hide torrent's port.. [02:05] Dr_Willis: playback has become smoother but I am seeing artifacts such as blocking [02:06] newser, you'll need putty for windows to connect to the ubuntu box via ssh or winscp for file transfers from ubuntu to windows [02:06] harjot_, I wish I could, but there are some specialized apps that I need to use there [02:06] akore: i noticed i was able to right click and tell it to 'open in totem' now i got a movie playing in just totem. No browser needed. :) [02:06] stevecoh1, good. good luck [02:06] jorknow: i would guess using encryption on outgoing connections (configurable within the torrent client). [02:06] newser, you [02:06] is there some proxy in your network that blocking a ports? [02:06] newser: like.... [02:06] newser, you'll also need to install openssh-server on ubuntu [02:06] harjot_, NX, solidworks, livewire, etc... [02:06] akore: i am getting some pauses in the video.. but that seems to be stream interruptions. [02:06] no, but a few hours ago they shut down my internet access since they 'detected P2P activity on my computer' [02:07] newser: cant u use wine [02:07] ? [02:07] jorknow: it's because of packet inspection, not ip address [02:07] newser: or virtualbox? [02:07] so how can i fix it possibly? [02:07] harjot_, hahaha, u must be kidding. Not really, it would take me years to make them work. Those are heavy engineering tools [02:08] Dr_Willis: yea same here, didnt get that using windows though, maybe its not letting it buffer enough before playing> [02:08] harjot_, sorry for the sarcasm. [02:08] Dr_Willis: it wont play now, says I need a text/html decoder [02:08] newser: have you considered mac for those kind of tools? [02:08] * harjot_ screams Virtual Box takes max an hour to setup and wine works within a second [02:08] akore: yea.. odd it said i needed that also.. then it started playing... [02:08] MAC [02:08] ?

Spending money is not an option for me :( [02:10] * harjot_ says u can download kubuntu free instead of buying mac [02:10] I'm a BSG fan :P [02:10] newser: that's fair enough [02:11] * harjot_ really wonders what he is doing in this world [02:11] i am looking for a program to map all wireless networks in my neighborhood. is there any linux based program that will do that?

[02:19] so rob what driver should i use [02:19] 177 [02:19] Konversation I do know [02:19] it's not so important) [02:20] is there a way to install another desktop without having all the apps from it in your menu? [02:20] I thik im about to switch to Ubuntu... [02:20] thedarkone: im not sure teh 180 drivers are for that old of a card... [02:20] sorry very new to ubuntu, how can i change permisions so i have all rights on the pc, this is my personal home computer and i am the only user [02:20] thedarkone: i know my 5500 and 8800 definatly use different drivers... [02:20] Is it as simple as I hear it is? [02:20] comraderaikov: we dont know what you hear.. but Ubuntu is very well done. [02:21] hmm [02:21] comraderaikov: ubuntu is one of the easier to use linux distros [02:21] < thedarkone> i tried a 5200 & 6200 and niether work [02:21] F10 is confusing the heck out of me. [02:21] and with either the open source drivers or nvida [02:21] Works one second then it dont [02:21] Im not sure what drivers those 3 cards use.. but I DO seem to recall that theres the 'nvidia-legacy' drivers for the older cards. and the nvidia drivers for the newer cards. [02:22] I swapped my 8800 and 5500 in a box once.. and had to install differnt drivers for the cards. [02:22] nvidia says 185 [02:23] < thedarkone> yep the the one that dont work on 9/04 [02:23] nvidia-glx-96 i recall was for the older cards. [02:23] nvidia-glx-180 was for my newer cards.

[02:24] flash in firefox is totaly fubar since my most recent apt-get upgrade [02:24] thers also the glx-71 drivers [02:24] hi [02:24] card it self has nvidia [02:24] on it [02:24] thedarkone: nvidia makes lots of chipsets.. :) [02:24] not on chip [02:24] some nvidia chipsets are not as well supported as they should be. [02:24] it on the board === peppe is now known as Guest92741 [02:25] thedarkone: nvidia does its 'standard' type card desisgns that other companies can then customize a bit. [02:25] okay [02:26] well si i should use 173 [02:26] my 8800 is actually a 'BFG8800XXX i think. :) [02:26] thedarkone: the system->admin->hardware drivers tool.

I created two files, 16-optimizations.sh in /etc/acpi/ac.d and /etc/acpi/battery.d. When I switch from AC to battery or back and forth, my scripts execute fine, but when I first boot, they're not executed. I tried making a simple script to check my current power state and execute one of the two previous scripts, that script itself works when I [02:28] run it from bash, but I've been unable to get it to run on startup. After hours of searching and trying various things (rc.local, rc.boot, init.d, probably more) I've still got no luck. If anyone can help it'd be appreciated greatly. [02:28] for kernal .27 and above [02:28] oh, forgot to mention - also put the script in start.d and resume.d to no luck [02:28] w/ Ubuntu could I copy my KDE 4.2.4 config from fedora and make it work on Ubuntu?

Information can be found at http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page including instructions specifically for Ubuntu. ies4linux is aimed at web designers and ie-only sites, so please, don’t use any of the IEs to navigate!

I don't use proxies so I would have nver picked that one out. [03:10] /join #ubuntu-my [03:10] I do [03:10] cuicida|: did dpkg work? [03:11] Sourceforge.net having issues... must be lots of coders hitting it on the long weekend eh? [03:13] Dr_Willis: you here? [03:13] vassup volks ! [03:14] hi === amanda94 is now known as jiimmy [03:15] i've got a problem, when i stream divx through windows 7 camera movement is a bit choppy but plays through, with ubuntu (totem plugin) it plays smoothly but it doesn't load fast enough so after 2-3 minutes it freezes and has to reload [03:15] akore: try MPlayer or VLC [03:16] rski: how [03:16] right,i shouldn't have said anything [03:16] sorry [03:17] anyone have a recommendation for syncing audio files and playlists to a flash-based mp3 player? [03:17] Samper: looks pretty good, at least I can see what files are dropped by a package using "-L" [03:18] hi, i need a little help plz :( [03:18] !ask [03:18] 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. :-) [03:19] what [03:19] oops [03:19] what [03:20] tgkahla: The latest issue of Linux pro Magazine just dealt with this issue. sems that many flash players are using a mocrosft standard called MTP i think. check in rhythm box under plugins to initiate it and plug in your flash player... I just did that with my blackberry today and works great. [03:20] i tried to install ubuntu 9.04 server edition on my new computer, but there was a power interruption during the install process [03:20] what is the module called that gives you firewire networking [03:20] now i cant boot anymore [03:20] does anyone know if backtrack has a offical channel ? [03:20] tgkahla: amarok also havs built in synching with media players. [03:20] racecar56: I have tha somewhere... stand by... [03:21] path1: just re-install it, dosen't take long [03:21] after bootscreen, the monitor gets black and a small white cursor is blinking [03:21] nothing happens [03:21] @rski he does not boot from cd nor does he ask. i always set CD ROM to primary boot device [03:21] ...but it doesnt help [03:21] so how did you install it [03:22] i downloaded ubuntu 9.04 server edition [03:22] burned it on a dvd [03:22] so what about: 04:21 < rski> path1: just re-install it, dosen't take long [03:22] @rski i would like to [03:22] @rski but how do i do it? [03:22] just as you did the first time [03:22] but it doesnt work [03:23] Samper: thanks for the info. i was hoping to find something that worked with rockbox . . . intimately :) [03:23] he doesnt boot from cd rom [03:23] what dosen't work [03:23] well [03:23] so the computer broke [03:23] get a new one [03:23] racecar56: eth1394 [03:23] and get a UPS so it dosent brake the next time there's a power failiure [03:23] but how could that happen? its a day old and it worked before the power interrupt [03:23] thats strange [03:23] wow [03:24] cannot believe my computer is broke [03:24] its brand new [03:24] path1: power blips can spike the electronics under the hood - have you powered it down [03:24] i can still enter the bios [03:24] path1: warranty for the win :D? [03:25] path1: is the bios set to boot from cd/dvd? [03:25] ok so just some parts is damaged then [03:25] path1: have you tried booting from the cd again? [03:25] in best of luck only the cd/dvd-drive is broken [03:26] rski: exactly! maybe it's just a drive that got zapped [03:26] the power strip has master and slave. i shut down the master and my new computer was a slave [03:26] thats what created the power interrupt [03:27] i tried to boot from cd again, then i entered the bios and set cd rom to primary boot device, but nothing happens [03:27] so the master slave power strip killed my brand new computer?!?!? [03:27] wtf?!?!? [03:27] aaahhh [03:27] path1: You should have 30 days to return it =P [03:27] path1: possibly, there are lots of potential problems [03:28] I dont understand master/slace powerstrip. [03:28] hi [03:28] !cluster [03:28] Sorry, I don't know anything about cluster [03:29] how usable is 9.10 right now? [03:29] pagefault_: i give it 2 tux flippers up. [03:29] I have a problem with my netbook under ubuntu. I detect wifi network, I can connect to unsafe network but when I connect to my own network with the good ascii key (wpa) it doesn't work (it's ok under windows) ! [03:29] is there a problem with hex or ascii syntax ? [03:29] Dr_Willis: I need to do development so I don't mind if it's a little buggy but I need some of the newer stuff [03:29] bascially as long as it boots [03:30] pagefault_: most any disrto can do 'development' [03:30] Dr_Willis: yeah but I need certain versions of stuff, it looks like upgrading is just easier than compiling them [03:30] kryl: probably your wireless card driver was not compiled with wpa supplicant [03:30] pagefault_: ubuntu does updates every 6mo. If you need cutting edge.. check the ppa repos, or learn to use source... or try a diffrent disrto... [03:31] Dr_Willis: what I need is in 9.10 I just wanted to know if its usable before I upgrade everything [03:31] pagefault_: why wouldent it be 'useable' :P [03:31] Samper: Found another one 'dlocate', pretty slick for finding what package a file belongs to. dpkg is helpful for a package list, which would have been my next question. [03:31] Samper: Thanks. [03:31] Dr_Willis: well it's not released now for a reason :P [03:32] pagefault_: oh. i was missreading the version #'s :) for the beta stuff.. you should be asking in #ubuntu+1 [03:32] ah ok thanks [03:33] pelmen, what do I need to add exactly please ? [03:34] kryl: very long story. first of all frankly it will be easier to use wep [03:34] try it [03:34] :) [03:34] I love long story [03:34] ok.... [03:34] what is the driver you are using ? [03:35] ralink [03:35] is it ndiswrapper ? [03:35] wow i have same shit === comraderaikov is now known as sseiersen [03:35] ok what does it say in connection information' [03:35] it's under eee 1000he [03:35] any idea if i can set a virtual width on my laptop bigger than normal ie not 1024x600 but maybe 1624x600 (intel graphics) i ju [03:35] it should be rt28*** [03:35] pelmen, where are this informations? [03:36] just rightclick on signal strength [03:36] sound is not coming === adam is now known as Guest14997 [03:36] another question: the ower interrupt happened, while i was formatting my harddrive with encrypted lvm [03:36] does it explain why my computer isnt working? [03:36] ralink have very good linux support [03:37] go on their web site and download appropriate driver [03:37] pelmen, no I don't understand what you need, perhaps I can check in console? [03:37] I may need a firmware binary file ? [03:37] i have no idea how to check that in console [03:37] go to ralink web [03:37] path1: crashing your system while formatting your hdd yes [03:37] and download your driver [03:38] compile/install - done.. [03:38] wow [03:38] I'll do the best for that [03:38] thank you ;) [03:40] @blackest_knight what do you mean? crashing the system while formatting my hadd with encrypted lvm could cause such a phenomenon? [03:41] @blackest_knight what could i do? what happend? did my hardware really broke? [03:42] path1: not broke but i'd expect to need to reinstall the os or reformat that partition [03:43] @blackest_knight but how? i resetted the bios, i tried several changes, maybe i missed an important thing... i set my cdrom to primary, and after that secondary boot device... but it doesnt boot from cd rom [03:43] is it easy to migrate my /home to Ubuntu? [03:43] @blackest_knight so how could i reinstall the os? [03:43] Hi folks. I tried to follow the Acer Aspire One community page to make my wireless network (atheros AR242x) work properly without much successs. I have done it before, but I can't remember much more than "it was really simple". Would anyone care to paste a working Aspire One /etc/modules file somewhere? [03:44] Hi i have a, Bus 001 Device 002: ID 2770:9120 NHJ, Ltd Che-ez! Snap / iClick Tiny VGA Digital Camera. How do i Ask Me What To Do? F-Spot Imports too. [03:44] rbanffy: what make AAOne? I have an older one from Xmas time. [03:44] I'm trying to use the gnome 'show desktop button' [same as default Ctrl+Alt+D] in order to peek at my conky readout. Getting rid of the normal windows is immediate, but removinf the desktop icons take 3-5 seconds. After that conky info pops up immediately. Anything I can do? I wouldn't mind to let desktop icon there. [03:44] path1: maybe prep and format the hdd in another system === adam is now known as Guest14594 [03:45] xgnus [03:45] 8.10 asked me what do i want to do, 9.04 does not? Why Not?! Please Help. Thanks [03:45] ATI/AMD graphics drive i cant avtivate is not working, when star activation it show empty error massage [03:45] Dr_Willis: It's a ZG5 [03:46] It was working until I decided to reinstall jaunty after messing it up with xorg edgers [03:46] i read r100 ati radeon will have dri2 code [03:47] Dr_Willis: I remember it was like installing a package and adding something to modules [03:47] But I forgot it and also forgot to back-up the modules file :-( [03:48] Pidgin is working, i want gtalk voice speex codec pgp zfone im. [03:49] rbanffy: what version ubuntu are you using? [03:49] blackest_knight: 9.04 [03:50] This may not be the place for this question since it is a little more advanced, but whenever I compile a C program with gcc -S (to assembly) I am trying to figure out which assembly it is. [03:50] the wireless network card should work on install of 9.04 [03:50] What is the best game for Ubuntu ? Checkers Online? Where is the game in the Distro? [03:50] a514, bestbot in #ubuntu-bots answers "best" questions [03:51] a514: Nexuiz ftw [03:51] blackest_knight: It did. Now it doesn't and, believe me, I tried doing nothing after the install ;-) [03:52] when I add an icon to the launcher bar, I am guessing it is like adding to the Desktop, which drops a file in ~/Desktop. where is the launcher stuff stored? [03:52] <^Einstein> a514: Marfi: icculus has its home on freenode and so all of the ioq3 derivative projects, including ioquake3, Tremulous, Urban Terror, TremFusion, XreaL, etc. all have channels here. [03:52] !icecast [03:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about icecast [03:53] pls help! i am trying to reinstal ubuntu 9.04, but the installer won't recognize any of my partitions [03:53] rbanffy: try installing wifi-radar thats usually good, or turning off for a few minutes and pulling the battery (sometimes the card overheats ) [03:53] MrPiracy: do you care about any of the previous install? [03:53] blackest_knight: overheating is weird. It has been working for more than a year without issue [03:54] Mr P - type ext2/3/4 ? [03:54] a514: it was ext4, but i deleted them from another recovery cd and created ext3 [03:54] rbanffy: well my aspireone does it usually when its had the vents blocked some by being sat on a bed for hours [03:55] CarlFK: yesssss, i have all my data in them [03:55] I have Pitivi It edits Gstreamer FLV videos [03:55] blackest_knight: what is your lspci line for the atheros? [03:55] blackest_knight: Here I get "03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)" [03:56] CarlFK: in fact, i think i need a tool to fix partition errors or something [03:56] it's just ubuntu installer that won't see my partitions [03:56] I got the CD from http://shipit.ubuntu.com in the Mail From Holland. Cool Stickers Too. Thanks Mark. [03:56] rbanffy: 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01) [03:57] rbanffy: well thats identical [03:57] blackest_knight: ... Do you remember the time computing was a science? ;-) [03:57] hi [03:58] i remember when computing meant hoping the ram pack wouldnt wobble ;) [03:58] MrPiracy: "Gpart is a tool which tries to guess the primary partition table of a PC-type disk in case the primary partition table in sector 0 is damaged, incorrect or deleted." [03:58] Knight I used too compile a atheros tar with madwifi.sh & build essentials deb. Now 9.04 works automatically. [03:59] CarlFK: all the other programs that i tried so far can see my partitions, i could even delete the previous ext4 .... it's just the live cd [03:59] MrPiracy: thats the first one I found. there is a live cd with that and a few other similar tools on it - check out http://www.clonezilla.org [03:59] CarlFK: even fdisk -l will list them all [03:59] on a scale of 1-10 (1 being "what's a linux?" 10 being "I'm Linus Torvald.") where would installing linux on fall? [03:59] blackest_knight: I think I figured that out: linux-restricted-modules was missing [03:59] MrPiracy: try the ubuntu alternate CD [03:59] *installing linux on an ipaq [03:59] How would i go about enabling a certain resolution manually via xorg.conf [03:59] Will be back after the reboot [04:00] Did you notice gparted is on the CD but not the installed partition?! [04:00] CarlFK: doesnt gparted have a tool to fix what it thinks is an error? [04:00] a514: neither gparted or install will recognize the partitions [04:00] a514: yes after every install at some point its traditional [04:00] i installed flex plugin in eclipse galileo, the flex editor is not launching, some error it is showing, can you please tell what is it, check this http://pastebin.com/m251649db [04:00] a514: all the other recovery cd's i have here will [04:00] Ok I gave up on the whole screencasting thing.Im too much of an OCD to ever finish one. hehe [04:01] CarlFK: i dont think there's anything wrong with this cd, this is acctually the 3rd time i'm installing from it [04:01] linuxguy2009: do you live near Atlanta GA? [04:01] MrPiracy: then delete whats there and create new partitions [04:01] CarlFK: my first install on this pc was from this same cd [04:02] CarlFK: no [04:02] Ohio [04:02] linux guy intouch.org is in GA too [04:02] MrPiracy: the alt has a slightly different set of drive ... things :) [04:02] blackest_knight: i cant, all my data is in there ... it's a 500gb drive with 5 partitions [04:03] MrPiracy: didnt you say you converted them from ext4 to ext3 ? [04:03] linuxguy2009: come to http://www.pyohio.org in Columbus in 2 weeks and you can help make more of http://pycon.blip.tv [04:03] if i get to grub in this live cd, i can even root (hd0,0) from it [04:03] i downloaded flex sdk plugin for eclipse and after install, editor is not opening,i installed eclipse and flex in home dir,what is that error http://pastebin.com/m251649db [04:03] Would it be possible to have a Voice Server for Chat with irc with FreeNode? [04:03] ahlan [04:03] New question its much easier for me to write text based tutorials for the Ubuntu community but I dont want to get a website yet.Whats my best outlet for writing text based tutorials to help folks here with common questions and such? Is that called a blog or some other techno term or where do you guys think I should put them at on the web? [04:04] linuxguy2009: ubuntu community docs [04:04] linuxguy2009: start your own page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CarlKarsten [04:04] blackest_knight: ok, i had jaunty installed here, but then i had to delete it to reinstall and now i am facing this problem [04:04] hmm cool [04:04] linuxguy2009: clean up my junk first :) [04:04] Some help with dual screen? :-/ [04:05] blackest_knight: i had ext4 created fine, but now the live cd installer wont see my partitions [04:05] MrPiracy: try the ubuntu alternate CD <-really [04:05] blackest_knight: and it's acctually the only program that wont see them, all the recovery disks i have here will [04:05] anyone tried eclipse galileo, will it perform better in ubuntu?? [04:05] lol @ ewbuntu [04:05] blackest_knight: fdisk -l will list them too [04:05] MrPiracy: do you have a usb drive of about 1gb [04:06] CarlFK: Do i need to know HTML or scripting or any fancy stuff to make a ubuntu wiki page? [04:06] so why are you guys not using wndows? [04:06] yes, i got a 2 gb usb drive [04:06] linuxguy2009: nope [04:06] sweet [04:06] linuxguy2009: you can kinda just dump text, hit preview, add some CR's to make it readable [04:06] !ot > SunniD [04:06] SunniD, please see my private message [04:06] < linuxguy2009> create website @ freewebs.com, its free and template handy === TheQ_ is now known as TheQ [04:06] MrPiracy: might be worth trying to boot from karmic iso its using ext4 by default in alpha2 [04:07] linuxguy2009: but really quick you will want to read up on some of the wiki markup stuff like *bold* [04:07] blackest_knight: what's karmic iso? [04:07] < linuxguy2009>i made one website for linux beginers and my freinds, www.abhilash.co.nr, check it [04:07] how can I check if there exist somefiles with prefix "hello" ? e.g., if I have 2 files hello1 and hello2 , I want the check to say "yes". I've done something like this if [ -f hello* ] ; then echo "yes; fi but hello* doesn't work [04:08] the current ubuntu release is 9.04 but there are alpha's of 9.10 which might boot and recocognise your ext4 partitions [04:08] blackest_knight: ok ... i just tried to run gparted from terminal to see any error messages and it showed "Can't have overlapping partitions." [04:08] abhilash1: Did you code that by hand or in a WYSIWYG editor in Linux or what? [04:09] you could use unetbootin to set up a usb stick to boot it [04:09] < linuxguy2009> its an editor @ freewebs, not coded [04:09] ah cool [04:09] how do i start firefox in the safe mode? [04:09] < linuxguy2009>still now learning html and flex stuff........will write html code by next month [04:10] blackest_knight: i dont want to install alpha, i just want to fix my partitions so ubuntu 9.04 will see them and let me install once again [04:10] MrPiracy: I dont think i can help with this , i've not had this issue === arthur is now known as Arthur__ [04:10] the idea of the alpha isnt to install just use as a rescue disk [04:10] blackest_knight: does fdisk has a parameter to fix errors? [04:10] < linuxguy2009>what kind of tutorials u want to write?? [04:10] how do i start firefox in the safe mode? [04:11] you'll have to google it dude [04:11] abhilash1: Well basically everything that i have learned myself and there are no tutorials anywhere else to explain it. [04:11] firefox --help ? [04:11] blackest_knight: i have 4 recovery cd's here ... all of them will find my partitions, i could even delete the old ext4 and create ext3 instead [04:11] < linuxguy2009> my intention was just only installations and programming, you can create a blog and write or create website like me [04:12] I installed from the offical cd and manually setup a ext4 with swap. Fedora 11 did not let me boot a ext4 partition? :) [04:12] abhilash1: One such as how to create a custom CD/DVD repository disk that can be used to install any ubuntu app on any other ubuntu machine online or offline with 100% of dependencies managed for you. [04:12] i can't get my skype sound wroking [04:12] MrPiracy: then can you mount your patitions and recover your data ? [04:12] blackest_knight: Thanks. I guess it was the restricted stuff that was missing (that and hard-restarting the machine). [04:12] just booting to the desktop from the cd usually mounts them for you [04:13] linuxguy2009: apt on a cd works pretty well for me [04:13] < linuxguy2009>oh thats gr8, i'll tell you please start a free website, write all tutorials, publish web address url on twitter, blogs,irc, forums, enough:) [04:13] abhilash1: Yeah but it doesnt allow a ubuntu newb to double click on a install file and thats it. [04:13] 大家好 [04:13] if you cant write to them just open a terminal and type sudo nautilus [04:13] !gksu [04:13] If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [04:13] abhilash1: no synaptic involved at all in install. [04:14] < linuxguy2009> oh then .deb format may work [04:14] Say what? === sage_ is now known as SageX [04:15] * SageX sighs [04:15] 4th of july [04:15] < linuxguy2009> can you give me link @ your tutorial or where u refered.........maybe i'll also give link to tutorial === saulus_ is now known as SauLus [04:15] I dont have it typed yet.Im still deciding where to put it. [04:15] why in some channels do i have to use # and others use ##? [04:16] abhilash1: I need a good wysiwyg web editor or something.Im too lazy to html code in the year 2009. [04:16] hehe [04:17] christopher Have you tried changing any pulse audio [04:17] i honestly don't know how to even do that, i am really stuck here [04:17] has it just gone quiet in here ? [04:19] no fireworx [04:19] :L [04:20] im having trouble with a terminal it wont connect to IP at all im using jaunty, same version runs fine on other machines I suspect the pc is broken all links say up in terminal, how to diagnose adding another nic doesnt seem to have helped [04:21] what is the beep sound when you hit the test button [04:22] i running xp with two hddisk. where can i find info on installing ubuntu 9.04 on the second drive?? [04:22] vprm, install Ubuntu on the other hdd [04:23] ok right click the top bar left ubuntu icon and edit menus click system on the bottom and then look on the right for MultiMedia Systems and click it. OK [04:23] and GRUB will set a option for Windows or Linux [04:24] sseiersen-> i can't find info how to put 9/04 on the second drive.. [04:25] vprm Try Ubuntu Portable It works in XP or Wubi on the NTFS partition [04:25] vprm: the installer will offer you various options for partitioning just choose the 2nd drive to install to if it gets scary you can cancel [04:27] i've tried that, but i can't use the second drive..i must be doing somethink wrong.. [04:27] hello [04:27] hello [04:28] when using firestarter and my outbound connections are restrictive and i allow ports, i have 3 choices allow, anyone? firewall host? ip or network? wich is the right answer? [04:28] vprm: you might need to use manual partitioning your 2nd hdd should be sdb [04:29] Good morning:-D [04:29] hey how can i change the image that shows while ubuntu boots up?

[04:47] do I _HAVE_ to follow skeleton's format? I mean, I found a guide on creating the equivalent of an rc.local [04:48] insulina, you'll need to tell synaptic to use the pen as a repo. [04:48] vprm: maybe do installation with a screwdriver disconnect the windows drive and then proceed as normal :) [04:48] and it doesn't seem to... it just says make sure the first line is #!/bin/sh [04:48] and the rest can be calls to scripts [04:48] so seriously, I am at a loss here. I can't get anything to run on bootup [04:49] hi [04:49] bastidrazor: and i do i put a repo in a pen ? with all dep's ? [04:49] insulina, what? [04:50] bastidrazor: sorry, how do i put a repo in a pen ? with all dep's ?

[04:53] nw-b: a router is a router.. some routers have a 'work as a switch' setting.. nomrally one just plugs the pcs into the router.. set them to use dhcp. and away it goes..

My fans on my laptop dont kick up at all they seem to always be running on low [04:53] louis_: maybe they know in channel #xubuntu [04:53] oh my god, I think this has it. [04:53] nw-b: you sure you mean that ? [04:54] a router normally has a dhcp server. and other features.. a switch will have none of those. [04:54] insulina, that i don't know.. possibly search the community docs or forums. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ [04:54] nw-b: turn of dhcp in the router and its a switch [04:55] 31/31ssss [04:55] blackest_knight, not really, I just need to plug my NAS hdd to the router and plug it to my computer via ethernet.

I don't know what to do [04:57] nw-b: then its not a basic lan network. your pc will be on 2 networks. one just for wireless.. one from the other router. [04:57] please help [04:57] hello [04:57] Dr_Willis, ok, since I do not know a thing on networking, I thought it was simple to do [04:57] hello [04:57] ah i give yp, i can hear my voice as i speak through the headphones but skype test call still does not record my voice [04:57] #são carlos [04:57] são carlos [04:57] nw-b: set the hd+router to use a differnt ip range. such as 192.168.2.0 instead of whatever the wireless network is using.

[05:00] okay, that did not work. I think my issue may actually be that I need to be running this script as a super user.

[05:20] is kubuntu not the same in most sense? [05:20] has broken the nvida driver [05:20] chris_: about any of them should work. but its the nvidia drivers/programers that are causing the issues. You could try the LTS release of ubuntu if you want. [05:21] chris_ Try tiny core linux [05:21] if It says kernel panic, then grub is not the problem right? [05:21] I like that when I installed ubuntu it auto detected my ethernet connection, sound drivers, etc, just my video isnt working. Will debian be as noob-friendly? [05:21] * John|4thofJuly is away: installing [05:21] ... [05:21] chris_: or just use the nv driver. or vesa driver - if you are programing.. then 3d support is not a big priority [05:21] * John|4thofJuly is back from - installing.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [05:43] pierre123: so you basiciallyr removed linux totally from teh system? [05:44] pierre123, or another linux distro? [05:44] no one answered this before: where do I need to add something to my path if I want it to work via Alt-F2? ~/.profile? [05:44] space_cadet, yes I have removed the ext3 and swap partitions [05:44] [21:34] Hi! I need help with NFS, I can't copy more than a few files from the server to the client, everything just stops, and I have to completely restart the machine untill I have network usablility again. [05:45] pierre123, hrm.. i asked if you were trying to boot to windows... or another linux... please differentiate [05:45] I have booted into the xp disk and tried to execute fixmbr and fixboot but I still can't seem to remove the grub bootloader [05:45] lol [05:45] hrm [05:45] Mkop: anywhere in the default path should be fine. or give the full path to the commanbd. your user can make a 'bin' directory in their home dir. and that will also be in their default path. [05:45] space_cadet, sorry I'm trying to boot into windows [05:45] pierre123, that should have wiped it out for you [05:45] I know its strange, maybe I will boot into the Ubuntu LIve cd and check it out with gparted, do you think I will see it in there? [05:45] pierre123, unless you installed grub on your windows partition [05:45] lol [05:46] that would explain a grub error. [05:46] for raid in a vm theres a great book called Ubuntu Server Administration [05:46] bah [05:46] gotta buy it [05:46] Dr_Willis: /home/username/bin is not in the path. My question is, where do put PATH=$PATH:/home/username/path;export PATH? does ~/.profile get executed during a GUI login? [05:46] BAH [05:46] ima restart [05:46] AGAIN [05:46] @_@ [05:46] John|4thofJuly: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [05:46] or ebook [05:47] Hey guys didnt GeoCities used to be owned by Google? [05:47] Or am I wrong? [05:47] ? [05:47] linuxguy2009: I thought it was yahoo [05:47] Mkop: when you make a /home/username/bin - the default .bashrc (or was it .bash_profile) should see that it exists and add it to the default path. [05:47] me too.. [05:47] Oh ok I thought it changed [05:47] well i will look into it. ty blackest_knight [05:47] geocities owned by yahoo and closing / closed [05:47] ah [05:47] Mkop: i forget whree .profile runs. i normally put things in .bashrc or .bash_profile [05:47] Dr_Willis: does .bashrc get executed during a GUI login, or only when I open a terminal? [05:48] I need to know how to install a dial up modem on my desktop PC [05:48] Mkop: its ran by all bash shells when the start. and since the X starup uses a bash shell it should. [05:48] how can i install fillezilla in ubuntu [05:48] I'm using Hardy Heron 8.04 [05:49] sudo aptitude install filezilla [05:49] Anyone want to take a first look at my new repository CD/DVD tutorial while I decide where to post it? [05:49] Dr_Willis: thanks for the help! [05:49] Blue_hat: google ppp0 dialup networking ubuntu [05:49] Need an opinion [05:49] linuxguy2009: I would [05:49] cool [05:49] blackest_knight: gonna try that [05:49] anybody know anythin about cpu scaling in ubuntu ? my OC 3.6Ghz only runs at 3.4Ghz when i stress it. seems like it sees my 8.5 multiplier as an 8x instead.. [05:50] I'm a first timer [05:50] DarkMage26: You on Pidgin? I can send it with that if so. Its an openoffice doc. [05:50] linuxguy2009: yes [05:50] O_O [05:51] the horror of the name.. O_o [05:51] I am looking at my hardrive in gparted and there is a fat16 DellUtility ntfs and fat32, there is no trace of my Ubuntu partition I don't understand where the grub bootloader is hidden? [05:51] DarkMage26: Let me know what you think. [05:52] how do i install gspca webcam drivers? [05:52] linuxguy2009: Sure will. Give me a min to read it. [05:53] pierre123: grub bootloader is on the MBR of the drive.. or the MBR of a parittion. [05:53] pierre123: did you install with wubi in which case ubuntu is installed in a big file [05:53] Im not sure the 'mbr of the partition' is correct terms.. but it can go on sda1 (for example) instead of sda [05:53] hmm how can I remove it and restore the windows default bootloader? [05:53] I dident think WUBI used grub.. [05:54] how can i remove kubuntu desktop? [05:54] pierre123: you would reinstall the windows boot loader using the windows tools.. thats about all i know on the topic. [05:54] DaveAlpha: why not double click it [05:54] apt-get and aptitude cant find it [05:54] MS still easier [05:54] pierre123: if you have more then 1 hard drive.. be sure you are not accidently booting the wrong hd via bios also. [05:54] anyone? [05:55] shaullx: do you mean kde? [05:55] !puregnome [05:55] 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 [05:55] yea [05:55] pierre123, you *could* get a floppy disk, quick format it, and throw a valid boot.ini, ntldr and ntdetect on it and see if it'll boot [05:55] Dr_Willis: i think he said gparted couldnt see his ubuntu partition just his windows drives so i figured either hadnt installed ubuntu or had it in a folder in windows [05:55] kubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package.. removeing it wont remove all of KDE. [05:55] shaullx its in special repo i believe i look for you one sec [05:55] fireworks and computers mix well [05:55] :> [05:55] I need help with NFS, I can't copy more than a few files from the server to the client, everything just stops, and I have to completely restart the machine untill I have network usablility again. [05:56] hi can someone advise me on how to install the latest nvidia drivers on my laptop? [05:56] tnx i will try [05:56] Adola: google sshfs (you'll thank me for this) [05:56] shaullx: ubottu is a bot. thank Dr_Willis [05:56] Are there many in here using that netbooks build? [05:56] shaullx you are wanting client correct not server [05:56] mejobloggs: did you try using System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers ? [05:56] tnx Dr_Willis :) [05:57] how do you know i am not a bot? [05:57] :P [05:57] *danger Will Robbinson!* [05:57] i do now :P [05:57] We don't, no one in here can pass a turring test [05:57] tritium: thanks i didnt know about that [05:58] Dr_Willis: if you are a bot, you're a sophisticated enough bot to understand natural language, and therefore sophisticated enough to understand thanks [05:58] RiverRat: i dont use it on my netbook coz i dont like it or the stupid stuff cut out of the default [05:58] Sam you get answer about filezilla ? [05:58] blackest_knight: So you use the full desktop version? [05:58] hi all [05:58] sam sudo apt-get install filezilla [05:58] Mkop: when my kind take over the world.. you will be rewarded... [05:59] ? [05:59] you're also a slow bot. So you I don't think you'll be taking over for a little while yet. [05:59] Dr_Willis: you might be a bot coz your on any time day or night more likely your several people working shifts [05:59] Mkop: we allready have. :P [05:59] im dling vmware player right now and trying to figure out how to install it, how do i install a .rpm or a .bundle (sorry really new to linux) [05:59] lol [05:59] blackest_knight: actually im 1 person whos constantly getting his shift changed. [06:00] Jeremy2: you may want to try virtualbox. its a bit easier to use. [06:00] linuxguy2009: That was good. Easy to do but maybe needs some work. PM me for more info. [06:00] Jeremy2, extract lol easy [06:00] ok [06:00] Jeremy2, just like winrar [06:00] !vmware | Jeremy2 [06:00] Jeremy2: VMWare is not available in the Ubuntu repositories.

[06:39] :P [06:39] sircrazy_: you know what? If you can't get support for debian in #debian, but #ubuntu is full of responsive people, that seems like a good reason to change to Ubuntu.... [06:39] its in system tools [06:40] hey, i was wondering how to set the preferences on a screensaver?

[06:41] i doubt it [06:42] why ask a question you know the answear to [06:42] seems pretty redundant [06:42] i don't know the answer to my question [06:42] I need help with NFS, I can't copy more than a few files from the server to the client, everything just stops, and I have to completely restart the machine untill I have network usablility again. [06:42] PwnerJohn: what do you doubt? the ose version is the free version. the non-ose version HAS usb support which contains propriatory codecs to make it work [06:43] I wonder if im the only person that just uses the 'blank' screen saver.... [06:43] * Adola uses it on his netbook [06:43] i used to like to set the rd-bomb screensaver to 2 colors, it looks really cool in b&w [06:43] lol, perhaps. I'm fond of the ants crawling around on the bent, 2d toroid thingy. [06:43] Dr_Willis: nope.. keeps the laptop cooler when it's not processing an opengl screensaver. :) [06:44] man getty: " getty - alternative Linux getty." Is this not a contradiction? Please explain. [06:44] but there's no preferences dialog in the ubuntu screensaver any more [06:44] no screensaver. just poweroff display [06:44] uh [06:44] i downloaded mine [06:44] from [06:44] Dr_Willis: I only use blank. I don't like stuff moving on a screen. It grabs at the corners of my eyes... [06:44] virtualbox [06:44] PwnerJohn: ok.. if you downloaded the non-ose version then you will have usb support [06:44] Does anyone know anything about ipfrag_high_thresh? [06:44] I recall a screen saver years ago for windows. that had news feeds/weather repoort scrolling by. not seen any like that in years... [06:44] i guess nobody know how to do that === SpacePigeon is now known as wolter [06:45] pretty lame that ubuntu makes a program less functional [06:45] ganjanaut: check the forums perhaps thers some hidden settings.. [06:45] ganjanaut: or maybe it's a gnome thing.. [06:45] ganjanaut: that is 'GNOMES' normal method of operation. [06:45] WUT [06:45] no media? [06:45] :( [06:45] PwnerJohn: start asking full questions... [06:45] kk [06:45] What does no media mean? [06:45] it wasn't like that in older distributions [06:46] ganjanaut: Set for Floating Feets? I find it most calming. :) [06:46] ganjanaut: gnome get's updated too. not just ubuntu [06:46] Adola: that's an odd failure mode. Usually nfs either works or it doesn't.

Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot [07:07] ok I want to find "PHPSHOP_CHECKOUT_CUSTOMER_NOTE" in /home/aftab/public_html/joomla [07:07] freonchill: try looking at http://mikehardy.net/linux_latitude_d800/ [07:07] steven_f, press power button could work ;-) [07:07] freonchill: I'm not sure it matters what windows says. For many devices, they must be probed at boot time and structures allocated by the kernel. If that doesn't happen, you aren't going to be able to talk to the device later.

[07:23] the windows registry is the biggest failure feature ever implemented. It gets so clogged with spyware and once it's changed it's almost impossible to cypher through it [07:23] Hopsnick: /etc is a location where stuff is stored.. there is no single file(s) like a registry.. one reason linux is more locked down and runs for long stretches without rebooting [07:23] shift_: I think there are postings on speeding up your install. Removing stuff doesn't help the way it does in windows. Try googling...? [07:23] freonchill: i read that it might work if you suspend to ram/disk and then swap the bay. and wake the pc up again, maybe it would detect it on wakeup.. but i dont know. was an old article [07:23] minimal instal, add very lightweight window manager, [07:24] there is a help doc for it on the ub site [07:24] Hopsnick: yeah and you need to be a Windows geek to understand it properly, same thing for the Blue Screen Of Death error messges :D [07:24] losher, I understand, I want a clean system to start off with.... I don't like having 50 proccesses which I don't need running. [07:25] shift_: easiest to do a clean install of a minimal system than try & clean up an existing one, I think... [07:25] I have had good success with turning down all the optional services and processes [07:25] Hopsnick: program files it depends on the program where those go exactly, but program user data goes in hidden .folders in home [07:25] Hopsnick: you know about those already? [07:25] nope [07:25] `ls -a ~` [07:25] Hopsnick: ok let's say for example the Firefox profile had gone wrong [07:25] May Allah bless ubuntu [07:25] but with the answers I got here I can research it online [07:25] wapko: ill try that - i was looking at the idectl and apparently there is another program/command that thinkpads use for this - lt_hotswap (dont know if this works inplace of idectl or is even available in ubuntu [07:26] wapko: going to do the swap a try and see what happens [07:26] brb [07:26] Hopsnick: then the hidden .mozilla folder could just be removed or moved, when Firefox is opended again, it's like Firefox was just installed and was running for the first time [07:26] losher, hmm =( [07:26] Hopsnick: type that in and look at all of the directories starting with "." [07:27] Hopsnick: you can type ls -a %HOME to see them or open and hit ctrl + h [07:27] shift_: I understand if you don't want to reinstall. Maybe someone else can help you do a cleanup. I'm not qualified.... [07:27] k, thank you [07:27] I see all of the directores starting with . [07:27] Hopsnick: or view > show hidden files and folders, and view > list and then press type, and things are in a nice list in alphabetical order by type [07:27] losher, I'll dig around google a bit more. [07:28] shift_ u saying you have 50 running and thats to much ? [07:28] Hopsnick: so if some program meses up instead of just uninstalling it and re installing [07:28] Hopsnick: you can delete or move it's .folder [07:28] freonchill: still there? [07:28] Hopsnick: and then you got new settings when you re open [07:28] Hopsnick: default settings [07:29] SnakDoc, no, it's actually 172 and yes 50 would still be too much. I would use gentoo, but it's a pain to configure on my laptop. Ubuntu has better support by default. [07:29] The thing to rember - is that removing a program via the pcakge manager does NOT NOT NOT - reset teh users settings.. it may not even reset the system settings for that package.. [07:29] shift_ how much ram are you using ? [07:29] Hopsnick: yep if you remove a program it's .folder may still be left there, even if you tell it to remove the config files [07:30] SnakDoc, 470mb [07:30] SnakDoc, out of 933 [07:30] shift_ my server got 159 open using 109 and pc has 232 using 559mb [07:30] Hopsnick: also it's good to learn the commands for basic things like this. sudo apt-get install program and then sudo apt-get purge program to remove the program and config files. or sudo apt-get remove to remove just the program, now that wasn't that difficult was it? :) :D [07:31] evening [07:31] shift_ you really think half that bad ?? i just asking last time i had windows xp up i was using 1 gb [07:31] wapko: yea, so that didnt work - it never brought the screen back online; guess ill just have to give it a go again later [07:31] freonchill_: :( [07:31] Hopsnick: and when running commands, you need the synaptic package manager or add/remove programs closed, or you will get an error message, because they are just GUI's for the commands [07:32] shift_ but to answer you question ubuntu-tweaks may have a few features you like also system > pref > startup application gives you options to pick about start up files [07:32] freonchill: I googled idectl: it's a shell script that calls the hdparm command, which *does* exist in Ubuntu. At your own risk.... [07:33] Having issues with connections in Firefox stalling, potentially DNS. Occurs at complete random and for a couple minutes or so. I can just go in any other browser and it'll be normal. I'm certain I don't have any proxy settings or anything of that active at all. [07:33] DNS stalled with my ISP's DNS servers, and even with OpenDNS. And as stated, in all other applications it's just fine [07:33] Takyoji: have you tried uninstalling firefox/ [07:34] I suppose I could if necessary [07:34] though it'll just retain the same settings and everything, right? [07:34] SnakDoc, well here's the thing... when I had gentoo on here, everything would open almost instantly, after switching to kubuntu, a right click takes 5 seconds for the pop up menu to open sometimes. I just want a minimalistic system without having to fiddle with hardware drivers. [07:34] Takyoji: what kind of isp dns? cable? dialup? dsl? [07:34] Takyoji: how did you install it the first time [07:34] Takyoji: which os version? which firefox version? It's not a known issue as far as I know.... [07:35] (also, this is with Firefox 3.0, and also in Firefox 3.5 beta (Ubuntu's security testing repository for Firefox 3.5)) [07:35] shift_ i have to say i ran KDE for a while was slow for me [07:35] I have a 5Mbps connection [07:35] Cable [07:35] ISP is a Charter [07:35] is Charter* [07:35] shift_ you tried gnome by chance ?? [07:36] shift_: i saw some 200mb ubuntu variant on disrtowatch the other day. :) not sure what was differnt about it. [07:36] I just had it installed by default as normal. Nothing abnormal at all [07:36] Takyoji: do you have both firefoxs'? [07:36] Takyoji: uninstalling probably won't change anything.. couple of things to try. Edit>Prefrences>Advanced>network and look at the settings there. maybe put on auto [07:36] Yes. But this occurred long before that [07:36] Takyoji: if so are they both open at the same time? [07:36] whats the kernel boot param to drop to a shell and not try to load X? [07:36] CarlFK: text [07:36] shift_ i have 1.8 dual core and 2 gb of ram and i thought kububntu was sluggish [07:36] Takyoji: you could also rename ~/.mozilla to ~/.mozilla.backup and restart FF to see if the situation changes. [07:36] wapko: thanks [07:36] SnakDoc, I used it 'back in the day', and haven't touched it since, but it seems to have come a long way though.... no harm in trying I guess. [07:36] Perhaps [07:37] Takyoji: check contents of /etc/resolv.conf for dns ips (mine is autogenerated) and dig @ip anyonldthing to check them for upness [07:37] shift_: so what were you using in gentoo that was so fast? [07:37] shift_ you should be able to sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and get it [07:37] shift_ anything worth a try :D [07:37] domain roc.mn.charter.com [07:37] search roc.mn.charter.com [07:37] nameserver 208.67.222.222 [07:37] nameserver 208.67.220.220 [07:37] Takyoji: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:38] losher, openbox + xfce4panel for the DE. [07:38] shift_: no reason you can't run openbox/xfce under Ubuntu you know. It will be faster than kde or gnome... [07:39] And when I say "stall", I mean in the matter of minutes. [07:39] not just seconds [07:39] shift_ let me know if you think xubuntu-desktop i believe should install that for you [07:39] losher, which is what I was going to install over ubuntu-minimal... I don't want to have gigs worth of unused libraries cluttering the HD, that's all. [07:40] SnakDoc, I did apt-get install xubuntu-desktop and removed kubuntu-desktop, but that didn't get rid of all the kde stuff after autoremove..... so I think just reinstalling from scratch is the way to go now. [07:41] !puregnome | shift_ [07:41] shift_: 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 [07:41] should atleast let you see enviroment for now [07:41] shift_: just don't do the install ubuntu-desktop [07:42] shift_ just do sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-dat [07:42] It's ok.... a clean install it is then. [07:43] shift_: I believe I mentioned that 10 minutes ago :-) [07:43] shift_ you must like formating more than me then good luck [07:44] losher, yeah but that was before I realised there is not pretty way around it. [07:44] *no [07:44] shift_: I'm just being smug.... [07:44] losher, >=| [07:45] Takyoji: and you're convinced that other browers work fine even while firefox hangs? [07:45] Yes, I just proved that fact again [07:45] A series of pages were all hanging at: "Looking up (domain)" [07:45] I jump to another browser, loads just fine [07:46] I refresh the tabs in Firefox, and they continue to stall at a DNS lookup [07:46] Takyoji: I can't think of a reason for that, unless it's a firefox bug. Ask on #firefox ? [07:46] anyway.... another question... with the laptop, there's a button to turn on bluetooth and wireless... it turns off automatically when ubuntu starts and if I suspend to disk with the wireless on, then it turns back on when the laptop is turned on again (so it can be controlled from software)... any idea how I can make it turn on automatically on boot? [07:46] I think I asked there a few weeks ago and they barely knew either [07:46] they suggested I ask here, since it's probably a more Linux-related issue [07:47] Takyoji: you could file a bug against it [07:47] Perhaps, I'll look through the bug list first. [07:48] I'll have to run it without any addons then, to isolate other factors [07:48] Takyoji: as I say,I can't think of a reason why firefox would stall but not other programs, unless it's a firefox bug. I would start googling.... [07:49] Perhaps. Maybe some awkward types of DNS responses [07:49] otherwise one other factor I think was supposedly IPv6 [07:49] !ipv6 [07:49] For an introduction to IPv6 and information on tunneling IPv6 through IPv4 connections, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6 | To disable IPv6 see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4 [07:50] Takyoji: Which OS version? [07:50] 9.04 [07:51] Takyoji: I hate to say it, but 9.04 is still full of weird bugs.... [07:51] Yea, I think I noticed this with the upgrade to 9.04 [07:51] the other issue I sometimes have is programs just becoming unresponsive at complete random [07:52] Hopefully 9.10 for example will be a little more stable [07:52] can anyone help me solve this problem that i get when i run sudo apt-get update: http://paste.ubuntu.com/210185/ [07:52] Takyoji: I would downgrade to 8.04.2, though it's a hassle to downgrade... [07:52] what'd be the easiest-to-use GUI toolkit for ubuntu for a programmer who has never done any GUI programming. [07:52] PerryArmstrong, what is th eproblem [07:52] PerryArmstrong, sorry let me read [07:53] Yea, I'll just stick with 9.04 [07:53] I can live perfectly fine with it [07:53] Takyoji: you're a better man than I am... [07:54] PerryArmstrong, open a terminal and paste this wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/sun_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add - [07:54] coz_; the error is at the end [07:54] Heheheh [07:54] PerryArmstrong, then do sudo apt-get update [07:54] coz; what should be there after the last hyphen [07:54] PerryArmstrong, nothing just the hyphen [07:55] coz; same problem again [07:55] PerryArmstrong, did that key work? [07:56] ok hold on [07:56] coz_; ok [07:59] hello [07:59] so my nvidia driver works i tried to run some games with wine.. but still i cant enable compiz effects [07:59] I'm confused on one part [07:59] Which partition should I install the bootloader to [07:59] dosen't matter [07:59] as long as you don't have another os installed [07:59] PerryArmstrong, according to this http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads that should have been the correct command but look there yourself :) [08:00] I have win 7 [08:00] PerryArmstrong, or where it says the key can be downloaded here click that [08:00] ok [08:00] Tacosarecool: you want to keep windows? [08:00] PerryArmstrong, copy and paste that entire rext file put it into text editor [08:00] PerryArmstrong, then save the file as vm-key on the desktop [08:00] yeah rski sadly [08:01] sadly?

[08:02] PerryArmstrong, this is the text file you should have saved http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/sun_vbox.asc [08:03] Tacosarecool: wich partition shouldnt matter, grub will put an entry for windows also [08:03] how do i view a folder owner in terminal? [08:03] chown is to change folder owner [08:03] PerryArmstrong, starting at the -----BEGIN and ending with -----END pgp etc [08:03] rski its win 7 which is vista which is a pain in the arse [08:03] to dual boot [08:03] powertex ls -l [08:03] coz_; wait a sec [08:03] PerryArmstrong, ok [08:03] powertex: with an long listing like ls -al [08:04] Tacosarecool i never had a problem when i ran that setup [08:04] oh thanks guys === joshthecoder is now known as joshthecoder_afk [08:04] PerryArmstrong, or just File save page as in Firefox [08:04] shaullx: have you tried the fusion-icon app ? [08:04] anyone using an unlocked iphone 3gs on tmobile? [08:04] i know this is an ubuntu chat [08:04] whats that [08:04] but curious [08:05] wapko [08:05] shaullx: its a tray app that lets you choose the WM and stuff [08:06] shaullx, if you are running compiz I suggest using fusion-icon [08:06] shaullx, it offers many right click options specific to compiz as well as Select window manager and Select window decorator [08:07] installed now all the gui is messed up after i click reload [08:07] coz_; whats this ppa.launchpad.net [08:07] ok switched to matacity now its normal [08:07] but still [08:07] PerryArmstrong, that is a repository [08:07] cant enable no effects [08:07] Anyone play plants vs. zombies on ubuntu? [08:07] but the driver is working [08:07] shaullx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [08:08] i tested with few games on wine [08:08] shaullx, which video card are you running? [08:08] 98gtx+ [08:08] shaullx, ok nvidia and did you install the driver for that? [08:08] yes... [08:08] is this the right way to fix my character encoding? http://bitprison.net/gnome-terminal_character_encoding_utf-8 [08:08] shaullx, and did you reboot after installing the driver? [08:08] i think he means /etc/environment not /etc/environments [08:08] yes.. [08:09] coz_; i no longer get the virtualbox error now...but some error relating to this [08:09] im telling ur games work so the driver is working fine [08:09] shaullx, ok open system/preferences/appearance/ visual effects and tell me what is ticked there [08:09] u* [08:09] PerryArmstrong, ah oh [08:09] normal i can't choose anything else [08:09] "desktop effects cannot be enabled" [08:09] coz_; i gave you the paste write ...just check the other error [08:10] shaullx, ok system/administration/hardware drivers is the driver activated? [08:10] coz_; i just did as instructed in the virtualbox site...so now i dont get that error now [08:10] thats funny though. in my appearance/visual effects dialogue. nothing is checked [08:10] PerryArmstrong, ok [08:10] wapko, are you running fusion-icon? [08:10] yeah [08:10] wapko, thats why [08:10] i dont have hardware drivers === thanhvu is now known as tvn2009 [08:10] wapko, you dont need that section [08:10] dont have that menu [08:11] Hi, I have a problem with my wireless network card on desktop PC. It has very weak signal, while my laptop has full. [08:11] shaullx, in terminal lsb_release -a [08:11] Okay, I just installed XUbuntu today. It's having trouble sensing my volume slider, I think. [08:11] if i enable the restricted driver then my own driver won't work and then games won't run [08:11] can't u just ask what release i have? :S [08:11] jaunty [08:12] eee [08:12] shaullx, ok in that terminal type or paste sudo /usr/bin/jockey-gtk [08:12] What should I do?

[08:15] coz_; ya [08:15] PerryArmstrong, then I am at a loss... the application should still install without authentication though [08:16] shaullx, and there were no errors when you installed jaunty?? because something is wrong if the hardware driver dialog is not listed or installed [08:17] Hi! I am here to ask a question about my sound problem. I just installed ubuntu and my sound is working in setting's test sound button, but for example mp3s and avis doesn't have any sound.

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 [09:57] does anyone know of a good download manager that works with easynews? [09:57] bullgard4, apparently (according to Google) Gimpnet is the go for #gnome [09:58] tx! [09:58] mobi-sheep: suprisingly the mouse works as intended in the synapticpacket manager [09:58] other than aria2, which won't allow queueing? [09:58] Hello, quick ques, lets say I want to format my pc all over again for some reason, and the Video card driver must be installed manually, if I backed up xorg.conf and after formatting replaced it with the original one ? it will install or fix driver issues ? [09:58] villevicious: Problem solved then? ;o [09:59] Black_Phantom: no [09:59] but it did sound good..lol [09:59] Black_Phantom: prob not, you still need kernel modules i think [09:59] mechdave: Yes. Thank you for your help. [10:00] Could someone please Help!!!! I need to use portaudio under ubuntu8 and I configured it with --without-oss . Why pa_devs says number of devices=0 [10:00] bullgard4, no worries, not that I was much :) [10:01] I think the prob. of my driver ( which is fixed now ) is from the Accelmethod section in xorg.conf, especially coz scrolling is slow in firefox & compiz too. Does fixing the Accelmethod after formatting fixes the prob. ? [10:02] mobi-sheep: the mouse works fine in the normal ubuntu desktop, the problem appears to be limited to the netbookremix desktop [10:02] Hi everybody! I compiled 2.6.30. it's running fine. 2.6.30.1 is out. Do I have to wait one hour to compile everything again and then install the new kernel or is there an easier way? [10:02] !grub [10:02] 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 [10:03] what do you guys use to record the desktop. i used recordmydesktop. that did not work too good for me. the system starts lagging and the video is not al all good [10:03] mechdave: Do not denigrate yourself: The discussion was useful for me. [10:04] mobi-sheep: I think we'll live with the basic desktop just fine [10:04] bullgard4, no worries mate, I am more of a tech kinda bloke in the general systems of UNIX, rather than gui's. I am glad you found it useful ;) [10:05] Could someone please Help!!!! I need to use portaudio under ubuntu8 and I configured it with --without-oss . Why pa_devs says number of devices=0 [10:07] mechdave: It was useful indeed. I had forgotten what I once learned: What is $PATH for. But I am not certain if the File Hierarchy Standard applies here. -- So I appreciate that you helped me a bit along my way. [10:08] bullgard4, I am not sure either, another one is Ubuntu meant to conform to the POSIX standard? [10:08] !hello is Hi [10:08] how do i tell wget to output a file to the folder i wish [10:09] !hello [10:09] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [10:09] hi [10:09] papul, just testing something haha [10:09] papul, cd, then wget [10:09] papul, i think you have to put the path of where you want the file to land after the uri [10:10] wolter, how? [10:10] wolter, details please [10:10] papul, wget /home/papul/land_spot [10:10] papul, just a wild guess [10:10] I am looking for a partial Linux replacement for TortoiseSVN. I guess I can do things like commits and updates from the terminal. But I need things like a log-browser, revision-graph browser, diff-browser and such with a GUI frontend. [10:10] wolter, thanks :) [10:11] papul, -O outup_file === erpiter is now known as pcoca [10:11] mechdave: My impression is that Ubuntu is not so eager to cling to the POSIX standard. Ubuntu's main targets are others. For example I dare to say that Debian is more eager to cling to the POSIX standard than Ubuntu, and OpenBSD even more so. -- No, not all programs in the Ubuntu repositories conform to POSIX. [10:11] will auto super grub disk restore ubuntu grub? [10:11] hello.i've ctualized alsa and i stil don't have sound on my laptop acer aspire 553- [10:11] papul, joaopinto 's method works ! mine doesn't [10:11] ohhh [10:11] papul, o doesn't have to be capital though [10:12] ok [10:12] will auto super grub disk restore ubuntu grub? [10:12] papul, you can try with any file in your hard drive by prefixing its path with file:// [10:12] wolter, man wget, and yes, it should be capital [10:12] bullgard4, just reading on the wiki about FHS, it all started with RedHat, Dell and HP, I think Ubuntu loosely follows it (or is that Debian?) [10:12] joaopinto, no [10:12] joaopinto, test it yourself [10:12] wolter, random guesses are not very helpful, please read the manpages instread [10:12] wolter, is not about testing, is about reading the command documentation, man wget [10:13] papul, wget file:///home/papul/file.hti -o /home/papul/Desktop/file.extension [10:13] wolter, just because something works it does not mean it is being propery used [10:13] joaopinto, in the long run the manual is to get precise results [10:13] joaopinto, why is it not properly used when it works? [10:14] hi herman ;) [10:14] joaopinto, and who said it had to be capital? [10:14] wolter, because it may just work on whatever conditions you are trying, and not in general, [10:14] wolter, read the man, you will notice the capital "-O" there [10:14] joaopinto, look at the first example in man wget after OPTIONS Option Syntax [10:14] and on unix, case does matter, event for command line parameters [10:14] joaopinto, it has lowercase o [10:14] joaopinto, you read it [10:14] can anyone help me? [10:15] jakubek, dont ask to ask, just ask [10:15] wolter, stop being anoying and read the maual carefully, -o is different from -O, -o is for logfile output, while -O is for the download output !!! [10:16] so i ask :) [10:16] joaopinto, thats just a formality [10:16] wolter, ITS NOT !!!! [10:16] joaopinto, output is output in the end [10:16] please stop arguing [10:16] !ask > jakubek [10:16] please [10:16] jakubek, please see my private message [10:16] ;P [10:17] Hi all, tell what the utility can adjust the power a laptop? [10:17] wolter, well, I am not wasting more time with you, since you can't understand between the command log output, and the download output, neither you know how to read a manpage, and apparently you don't care about it [10:17] joaopinto, wget http://bambox.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/Preview.png -o Desktop/image.png [10:17] A4Tech: For example: nm-applet. [10:17] do that and tell me I am doing wrong. [10:18] bullgard4: networkmanager? [10:18] A4Tech, you mean to save power such as power saver ? [10:18] A4Tech: Yes. [10:18] bullgard4: you mean bt && wifi? === winda is now known as cE_cuPu [10:19] cat Desktop/image.png -> what a nice image he got there :) [10:19] A4Tech: Please put more precise questions. [10:19] A4Tech: Are you trying to save power by scaling the processor and shutting down unnecessary radio connections etc? [10:19] Black_Phantom: I need something like a button that energy-saving operation [10:20] brb [10:20] eoke only wifi & bt [10:20] how do i install gtk+-2.0 [10:21] A4Tech: Assuming Gnome: System > Preferences > Power Management [10:21] papul, what are yoy trying to achieve, gtk is installed by default on a Ubuntu system ? [10:21] you [10:21] eoke nono This is not it. [10:21] when does gnome 3.0 come out? [10:21] hey folks, I am having some issues with my video card (I think anyways) I took out my pci-e gpu card because it was acting up, but I have an onboard one thats working....until I visit a webpage. Doesn't matter which one, it freezes up the whole pc. I'm not sure where to start to look [10:21] hello, I have installed ubuntu server, how to start gnome? [10:21] joaopinto, mine is 1.* [10:21] joaopinto, i use jaunty [10:21] Need a program to set the modes of performance laptop. [10:21] A4Tech, try kpowersave, sudo apt-get install kpowersave [10:22] Black_Phantom: ok, thx, but i'm useing gnome [10:22] it will work [10:22] A4Tech, if I'm not mistaked KDE applications work with Gnome [10:22] papul, you have gtk2, now again, what are you trying to do ? [10:22] mistaken* [10:23] And if their are any necessary dependencies, it will be downloaded automatically since your using apt-get [10:23] Black_Phantom: Yes, but it is a heap of extra libraries in the system [10:23] tried to compile thunderbird. got this result "checking for gtk+-2.0 >= 1.3.7... Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. [10:23] yea true [10:23] where are the error logs located? [10:23] papul, you have thunderbird on the repositories [10:24] hi everybody ;) [10:24] papul, unless you have experience with building from source you should keep with the resitory versions [10:24] !hi lapedape [10:24] Sorry, I don't know anything about hi lapedape [10:24] !log [10:24] :D [10:24] Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ - For LoCo channels, http://logs.ubuntu-eu.org/freenode/ [10:24] !hi | lapedape [10:24] lapedape: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [10:24] joaopinto, i know but i want to compile it. [10:24] ^^ [10:24] papul, ok, you need the libgtk 2.0 dev package [10:24] joaopinto, he wants to compile it [10:24] learning? [10:24] !hi [10:24] <-- buntu user since 2 months... yeah ;) [10:24] Hi all, is there any image tool with Ubuntu that I can seperate some elements from a PNG image? [10:25] joaopinto, how do i get it? [10:25] papul, search for it with: apt-cache search libgtk 2.0 dev [10:25] you want libgtk2.0-dev, sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev [10:25] i just installed vmware player and now it is giving me an error screen that it can't find Kernel Headers 2.6.27-8-eeepc... anyone know how i can install these specific headers? according to synaptic i have linux-headers-2.6.28-13.45 [10:25] then? [10:26] A4Tech, google Gnome power saver, I couldnt find one [10:26] papul, then just re-rerun the configure, but you will need other libraries [10:27] anybody here ? [10:27] nope [10:27] !anyone | quizme [10:27] hallo iam [10:27] quizme: 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? [10:27] first time here [10:27] joaopinto, how do i install it? [10:27] :D [10:27] papul, the library? [10:27] papul, before trying to building something from source you should learn about package management [10:27] wolter, how? [10:27] !hello [10:27] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [10:27] papul, sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev [10:27] just testing [10:27] papul, you mean that? [10:28] papul, I already gave you the command, but you really should read more about package management first [10:28] i'm trying to do a ProxyPass but I"m getting a Forbidden error. have any ideas? [10:28] papul, if you had any repos version installed then you should remove that one first Ü [10:28] if you start bulding/installing from source, you can "break" your system my overreding system packages [10:29] wolter, i dont have [10:29] papul, carry on then [10:29] and i am not so dumb [10:29] quizme, ProxyPass in what context ? apache ? [10:29] do you know of any app that would find mp3's with missing tags or find duplicate songs? [10:29] papul, haha sorry if I made you feel dumb :S [10:30] kane77, there are several utilites to find dup files in general [10:30] wolter, ;) [10:30] kane77, to find duplicated files you can use fdupes [10:31] anyone know how i can install Kernel Headers 2.6.28-8-eeepc? [10:31] joaopinto, but I was thinking something oriented on music, since you can have multiple files of the same song that are in different bitrate (thus different files) but they are the same song.. [10:31] got error again configure: error: --enable-application=APP is required [10:31] or where i can find it at? [10:31] papul, then execute "$ ./configure --enable-application=APP" [10:31] ah ok, you mean an mp3 tags aware finder === chris_ is now known as Chr|s [10:32] have to go bye [10:32] bye joaopinto :) === hakonaj_ is now known as hakonaj [10:33] joaopinto: apache [10:34] kane77, try http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Audio/Duplicate-Music-Matcher-4889.shtml [10:34] joaopinto, thanks [10:35] is there some sort of program to check the hard drive integrity? [10:36] chris: no [10:36] none [10:36] j/k [10:36] i imagine there is [10:37] Chr|s, you can use badblocks for a surface scan [10:37] Chr|s, before that you should perform a filesyste check, which only checks filesystem data structures [10:38] where are this programs located? [10:38] Chr|s, there are are some SMART tools, if that HD is SMART capable [10:38] Chr|s, those I am mentioning are command line utilities [10:39] What is best practice, when installing software from source? I read that /usr is not a good place, because it can collide with the package management system there. Is /user/local better? Or should I choose a completely different place? === jai_ is now known as Guest11464 [10:40] zini1: Yeah, stuff you compile yourself goes in /usr/local/* [10:40] Flannel: Good. Thank you. [10:40] it depends on the "stuff", if you are installing a library package, /usr/local is not a good place :P [10:41] but yes, for binaries, /usr/local is usually a good place [10:41] hi runnin #xubuntu intrepid 64-bit amd with pulseaudio, and my sound just stopped working, anybody know what i can check for? [10:41] zini1, and make sure you use checkinstall, for easy removal [10:41] joaopinto: Please elaborate. Why would it be a bad place for a library and what other place should I choose? [10:42] zini1, if you use /usr/local for a library, .so, .a, .h will be installed into an use/local, if an application needs those libraries they are not set on the default library search path [10:43] How can I find mt WAN IP Address, Subnet Mask, ISP Gateway Address? [10:43] how is it possible to edit the bookmarks in Places menu? [10:43] skyl: ifconfig [10:43] hi there channel :) [10:43] zini1, if you have a good understanding on what you are installing, and you don't plan to have multiple versions of the software, it is safe to install to /usr [10:44] n0gear doesn't that just show the private stuff? [10:44] joaopinto: Okay. Thanks. [10:44] skyl, there is no such thing as private or public config, you have a single config, which is your card IP config [10:45] how to check if oss installed [10:45] ubuntu8 [10:45] joaopinto so, in trying to set those values in my router I can just input what ifconfig tells me? [10:46] skyl, ah well, you mean a router config, that is a different story, those should be fetched automatically from your ISP using DHCP [10:46] unless you have a static IP (unlikely) and you have the documentation for the expected config :) [10:47] Stdht, try typing lsmod in a terminal and see if its using it. [10:47] I do have a static IP; there is no way to find out without phoning the ISP for these WAN values? [10:47] skyl: What values? [10:47] anybody know apache here ? [10:47] WAN IP Address, Subnet Mask, ISP Gateway Address? [10:47] quizme: Sure. But don't ask to ask. [10:47] quizme: a bit [10:48] quizme + [10:48] oldude67 I tried. Grep what? [10:48] i'm trying to do a ProxyPass but I'm getting a Forbidden error. [10:48] know just lsmod [10:48] skyl: Technically yes, but... :-p Easier to get the correct info the first time rather than playing "guess and check." [10:48] Stdht, just lsmod it should show if its using it. [10:48] hi everybody [10:48] http://www.thirdreplicator.com/foo [10:48] skyl, if you don't use dchp (I mean for your public internet, not for the loca lan), then you need to get that info from your ISP [10:48] i have problem with gnome due to either cancelling an upgrade to jaunty (via "cancel" button while it was downloading), or earlier problems with gnome on 8.04, which, however, were seemingly fixed by upgrade to 8.10 in the meantime. i managed to upgrade to jaunty from console, but the system don't boot properly, showing only the items on the desktop after login and no controls at all. dpkg... [10:48] ...(recovery mode) results in "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!" with freeze everytime, and aptitude asks for 'dpkg --configure -a' repeatedly and states there are "95 partially installed packages" including 'xserver-xorg' which it can't fix when tries.

[10:50] Stdht, you asked about oss not alsa [10:50] lol [10:51] anybody have any ideas ? [10:51] Stdht, type alsa into the terminal and see if it gives you something [10:51] quizme, and your daemon provides contents for /foo ? [10:51] yeah [10:51] oldude67 I try to understand I have alsa with virtual oss api or alsa and oss installed both [10:52] joaopinto: glassfish -p 9000 -c /foo -d [10:52] oldude67 I see options for load unload etc [10:52] Stdht, probably both [10:52] you have both [10:52] quizme, you have installed & enabled mod_proxy, right ? [10:52] joaopinto: yes, it's enabled [10:53] oldude67 I configurer portaudio with optin no-oss and pa_devs says that there no devices. [10:53] joaopinto: sudo a2enmod proxy_http [10:53] SO I feel like th sound goes only through oss [10:53] Stdht, try configuring it with oss and see if it helps [10:53] quizme, restarted the apachae after enabling ? [10:53] joaopinto: yup [10:54] quizme, try: wget -S localhost/foo [10:54] check the "Server:" field [10:55] joaopinto: i get forbidden [10:55] and the server field is from apache ? [10:55] oldude67 But with oss portaudio produces terrible crackling sound!!! So I need to try to use alsa instead oss [10:56] joaopinto: curl localhost:9000/foo/widgets <--- that gives me what i want [10:56] joaopinto: what do you mean the server field ? [10:56] quizme, don't divert :) I have asked you to check the "server" field from wget -S, to see if the reply is coming from apache ;) [10:57] quizme, wget -S produces an output with several fields, including the "Server:" header [10:57] my question is... if it's possible to convert a .mp4 file to .avi file [10:57] with ffmpeg [10:57] durt, yes, I think so with a converter, like avidemux [10:57] Stdht, well im not sure about your program just know the basics of the systems and the uses...as far as alsa and oss..check your settings and see if you can switch them or change them.other then that , i dont think i can help you.sorry [10:57] and ffmpeg :) [10:57] joaopinto: oh ok. let me check. [10:58] joaopinto: Server: Apache/2.2.9 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.6-2ubuntu4.1 with Suhosin-Patch Phusion_Passenger/2.2.2 [10:58] ok [10:58] anybody?

[11:03] oldude67: repeatedly, although after this message there's a freeze, and i need to hard turn off [11:03] quizme, the "client denied by server configuration" usually relates to a Deny rule [11:04] Baskak_, have you tried hitting the escape key when booting and fixing dpkg that way? [11:04] joaopinto: I took out the Deny line [11:04] joaopinto: no dice [11:04] oldude67: no, can you you give me me more info?

[11:06] hi all [11:06] joaopinto: what's the diagnosis, doctor ? [11:07] Baskak_, have you tried in terminal update? [11:07] oldude67, I am doing some research, I only have a proxy config based on the virtuakhost name, not on a location [11:07] is there any software I can get/use to slow down my CPU when its idling?

[11:24] i have problem with gnome due to either cancelling an upgrade to jaunty (via "cancel" button while it was downloading), or earlier problems with gnome on 8.04, which, however, were seemingly fixed by upgrade to 8.10 in the meantime. i managed to upgrade to jaunty from console, but the system don't boot properly, showing only the items on the desktop after login and no controls at all. dpkg... [11:24] ...(recovery mode) results in "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!" with freeze everytime, and aptitude asks for 'dpkg --configure -a' repeatedly and states there are "95 partially installed packages" including 'xserver-xorg' which it can't fix when tries.

[11:24] KB1JWQ, readme? [11:25] papul: where di you get the source code from? did you start with a tarball?

[11:29] ditty_kong, lol [11:30] oldude67: If I want source build I go with FreeBSD. :-p Ubuntu's a binary distro, so installing from binary makes sense. [11:30] just seems like a unwanted headache.

But synaptic did install tcl 8.5.... so, any clues? [11:41] Flannel, whats the diff between aptitude and dpkg? [11:41] How can i configure and run a KDE screensaver if i am using gnome? [11:41] Flannel, in plain english [11:42] oldude67: dpkg does actual deb managing, apt provides the repository stuff. apt uses dpkg to do the installations (apt meaning the library, which aptitude, adept, synaptic, apt-get, etc use) [11:43] Flannel, ty so basically dpkg does the debian part and apt, aptitude does the normal ubuntu installs. [11:43] oldude67: er, no. apt gets the package files from the internet, dpkg installs them [11:43] no, by deb he means .deb [11:43] the packages [11:44] dunks, ok then why do apt-get install. [11:44] Hi, is there a way to chose which is the "default" account to send messages to an user if I grouped different accounts in pidgin? [11:44] think of aptitude as a package manager, it checks the package you want to install for dependancies, whether they're installed or not, and if they need downloaded where from, it then downloads them and dpkg then installs them [11:45] oldude67: apt-get feeds packages to dpkg, you cannot use apt-get without dpkg [11:45] but you can use dpkg with out apt-get [11:45] oldude67: Yes, if you download packages manually (like through wget, or whatever) [11:45] yes [11:46] ok thank you thats what i was wondering. [11:46] apt-get install saves you the hassle of finding the packages, what dependincies they need and all that [11:46] you could just do that yourself and use dpkg to install them if you had the desire to :p [11:46] dunks, i have no desire..thats what repos are for...:D [11:47] dunks, just wanted to know what the diff was. [11:47] and apt-get ;) [11:48] qwerty_guy, WTF? === papul_ is now known as papul [11:49] qwerty_guy, dont ever do that again.

[11:54] because i think thats what has happened [11:55] how do i do that? [11:55] Hello Ubuntufolks, I'm having quite a big problem with my external harddrive. Whenever I plug it in my system completely freezes. And I have to force reset the computer. The drive is formatted with NTFS and this happens on Ubuntu and Linux Mint, but not Arch Linux, Sidux or even Windows. Anybody know how I can solve this? [11:55] good evening/morning/afternoon/timezone dependant people. === Uncle|Sam is now known as uncle|sam [11:56] Regexfoo, sounds like a USB driver issue. [11:57] ok i think i got it now [11:57] i had to enter sudo before nano === liquid is now known as Likid0 [11:57] And how do I fix this? It's really annoying because almost all my files are on the drive so having access to it is kind of a necessity [11:58] It is USB, not firewire/eSata? [11:58] Yes, normal USB 2.0 [11:59] TrekStor DataStation maxi g.u with 1TB Space [12:00] Ok, do USB key's work? [12:00] What do you mean by USB key's? If you mean keyboard then yes, it works perfectly. [12:01] I meant memory sticks etc, small removable flash storage using the bus. [12:01] Hi, anyone here uses bitme.org? [12:01] Oh, yes that works too. [12:02] I think it could be an NTFS issue. Because normally flash drives are using FAT32 and my internal harddrive is formatted with ext4. The only thing not working is the external HDD with NTFS [12:03] Yes, that's true, but you said it works with other distros? [12:03] therefore the NT filesystem should be intact. === andi is now known as Guest58850 [12:03] Yes, Arch Linux and Sidux. But they're probably using different versions of NTFS-3G [12:03] are you on 9.04? [12:04] Regexfoo: you could boot into a linux live cd that works with the drive and copy the data to your hdd... not relly fixing the problem, but a way around it [12:04] Yes [12:04] Then the FSs should be compatible [12:05] Regexfoo, just a suggestion not fixing the problem too, back up your data, and then format the External HDD using NTFS with Ubuntu [12:05] or do a conversion. [12:05] you can convert without losing data. [12:05] exactly [12:05] How do I convert without losing data? [12:06] sound working for every program, except firefox -> youtube [12:06] solution? [12:06] I can do it manually using cmd in windows. But try googling it, there should be a fairly simple terminal command. [12:07] silidan, for sound issues and ALSA settings, try the forums, there's comprehensive guide. [12:07] And that'd work without having to copy all the files to another HDD and then copying it onto the external one again? Because moving 600Gb of data over USB is kind of a b**** [12:07] yea and nothing they tell me did help [12:07] silidan, it looks like a problem with Flash player, try reinstalling it [12:07] hi all [12:07] yeah, no copying required. [12:07] hi ghostnote. [12:07] Nice. Ok, I'm on my way to Google [12:08] goodluck. [12:09] what's wrong with mount in U, it ignores options in fstab [12:09] shall i try the deb package form the flash site? [12:09] instead of installing it again form synaptic? [12:09] flash is such a b****. [12:09] How would i go about completaly removing gnome ? [12:09] Yes get it from adobe. [12:10] Emery, are you confident with a console? [12:10] silidan, yes, but apt-get remove flashplayer-nonfree first [12:10] There's a much easier way though, DL server edition comes with no GUI. [12:10] aim, enough/ [12:10] >Yes get it from adobe. [12:10] i have flux installed now [12:10] so no need for gnome [12:10] they provide 64-bit one? [12:11] Emery flux is good but so is gnome, [12:11] No [12:12] Emery. [12:12] gnome is a resource eater and i don't want it [12:12] nope still no soudn [12:12] you may have to remove gnome-about, gnome-accessibility-themes, gnome-app-install, gnome-applets, gnome-applets-data... etc all manually. [12:12] Emery: good for you [12:12] and MONO!!!! [12:12] flash really sucks [12:12] time for an open source alternative [12:13] gnash, kalash === nospam is now known as Guest69065 [12:13] silidan: are you using the adobe-flash or the flash-nonfree? [12:13] adobe flash [12:13] remove it and install nonfree [12:14] again? === wet-chan is now known as wet [12:14] adobe and non-free are different I'm pretty usre. [12:14] *sure [12:14] dakarn, what is wrong with adobe flash? [12:14] silidan, first time you installed it from Adobe's website, not try installing it from apt-get install [12:15] anyone know about wireless, ports and http? [12:15] aim: Wow, any two of those go together. [12:15] because I appear to be getting timeouts over wireless, but only in http [12:15] now* sorry [12:15] there was a beta of flash 10 for 64bit when flash 10 came out... that worked for me... Donno if its still out there that was back in 8.04 days [12:16] flash sucks [12:16] Black_Phantom: what? [12:16] aim: What does the packet capture say? [12:16] the restricted drivers work better than the free ones -- as is the case with most things: ie nvidia [12:17] silidan, first time I told you to reinstall it, you did from Adobe's Website, now uninstall the Adobe's website one, and install it again from apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree [12:17] unsure KBIJWQ. How would I go about finding it out? [12:17] Ok I can't find any way to convert my existing NTFS to any other filesystem. The only thing I found was how to convert FAT32 to NTFS under Windows [12:17] What activity monitor can I use? Somekind of logger [12:17] exec ff in console? === gh0stn0te is now known as Gh0stEat [12:17] flashplayer-nonfree is a modified version offered by Ubuntu i guess [12:17] yea i already did this twice still no sound [12:17] i deinstalled adobe ones installed non free -> no sound [12:18] Black_Phantom: Is it available in our repository? [12:18] silidan: you using 10? [12:18] yes [12:18] oh sorry its flashplugin-nonfree [12:18] I apologis [12:19] i did use the non free and the adobe one neither worked [12:19] Regexfoo: i know that partition magic can convert ntfs to fat [12:19] KBIJWQ: How would I go about finding out? [12:19] i mean sound didnt work with neither [12:19] i get it [12:20] omg wait let me try something got an idea what may be wrong [12:20] alright [12:21] damn as i tought [12:21] i have 2 soundcards [12:21] it puts sound out on 2nd one [12:21] oh ok, good thing you fixed it [12:21] damn ubuntu cant handle multiple soundcard scorrectly [12:21] i didnt fix it [12:21] my wpa-supplicant dont work now (Wifi work with NM only). But when I have got ubuntu 8.10 it worked fine... My problem began after 8.10 was upgraded to 9.04... [12:21] silidan apt-get install libflashsupport [12:21] it just puts out sound on wrong card and i have no way to change it so its still broken [12:22] silidan, change the sound device from the volume control i guess [12:22] dakarn: this will help me route aduio right? [12:22] go in your bios and disable the card you dont wanna do [12:22] silidan: well i didn't see that you had 2 sound cards [12:22] every audio app gives sound on right card only firefox flash doesnt [12:23] can I upgrade my ubuntu 8.04 to 9.04 using apt-get? [12:23] yea my fault not mentioning 2 sound cards [12:23] Pulga, nop [12:23] aim: tcpdump or tshark or wireshark if you want a pretty GUI. [12:23] how do I ?

[12:29] silidan, on your firefox address bar, type about:config , u should be able to see all the config file of firefox, search for used soundcard and change it... teorically, this will solve the problem [12:29] i just had a hardware lockup , what logs could i check? [12:29] Gh0stEat: ok what next? [12:29] KBIJWQ: Sorry, I've got sniffit. No GUI I believe.

I've only tiny question is jaunty/ubuntu-9.04-server-i386.iso appropriete for a i686 CPU? [12:35] Is it true that LTS versions are most stable ? [12:36] loth, yep [12:36] thanks men, to your question: I guess there are but improvements make it reasonalbe to upgrade. [12:36] especially driver compatibelity was a strong reason for me! [12:36] guys, quick question. If I have ubuntu on this hard drive in my pc now, and I take out the hard drive, stick it in an external enclosure, and set my pc to boot from USB, will it work? [12:37] I see, but like lets say that 9.04 is more stable than 8.04 LTS ? [12:37] or are other changes necessary for a 'from usb' boot [12:37] how to know my internet connection speed from ubuntu [12:38] CokeNCode, not sure but I guess you have to have GRUB boot loader [12:38] thinkertinker, http://speedtest.net [12:38] no 8.04 is better production enviroments, when you have to make shure that its stable and downtime is low. but usualy for customers the newest version is stable enough (I'm speaking here out of my experience not any waranity) [12:39] I never had ubuntu server before, only debian leny&etch. where's the differnce?

[12:47] dakarn: apt tells me that libflashsupprt is not available (9.04) [12:47] orly_owlie, I think by updating daily, rather than that you have to go way deep into the kernel and stuff [12:47] no idea actually [12:47] http://gnewsense.pastebin.com/d649a9d94 this is the error [12:47] ok [12:48] dakarn: Audigy2 Solo1 [12:48] silidan: any idea? http://gnewsense.pastebin.com/d649a9d94 [12:49] orly_owlie: my last attempt to kompile a kernel used all my harddiskspace left (about 4gig) and resultedt trough fatal errors of mine in a need to completly reinstall) [12:49] [12:50] KB1JWQ: I am running sniffit with parameters '-F wlan0' and -i.

[12:58] dunno what happened but now youtube videos get played at double speed.... [12:58] in firefox [12:58] bullgard4: Two seperate things. [12:58] Whatever comes with google, haven't manipulated ports or anything. Only router porta have been ultered and that's to open, not close. [12:58] aim: I'd suggest looking at the connection to the wirless rotuer/switch device, the most common cause is a slight break in connection and the time out is when it can't connect in time [12:58] when I said google I meant ubuntu XD [12:58] Rabbitbunny: What are two separate things?

[12:59] aim: try it on a wired connection [12:59] no [13:00] silidan, you could use the newer firefox version 3.5 [13:00] aim: the problem you have just shown is a lack of name resolution [13:00] ok trying trying eth0 [13:00] aim: what is the result of '#more /etc/resolv.conf' [13:00] ikonia, he could try another name server [13:01] Rabbitbunny: Thank you for your help. [13:01] Incarus: how do you know his current is not working ? [13:01] i dont know, ikonia [13:01] wait [13:01] bullgard4: np [13:01] aim, ikonia: nameserver 208.67.220.220 [13:01] aim@aim-laptop:/$ ping google.com [13:01] PING google.com (74.125.127.100) 56(84) bytes of data.

[13:02] aim: YOu need to add this in /etc/resolv.conf' and then try again [13:02] however, it never has to reconnect. [13:02] aim: it probably has auto re-connect enabled so you don't notice it [13:02] it just randomly loses packets [13:03] ikonia, he tried google on eth0, and got 2% packet loss [13:03] Incarus: so ? [13:03] The icon near the top never shows a reconnection status. [13:03] ikonia, i think so [13:03] Incarus: you think so what ? [13:03] ikonia, eth0 (wired) -> ping google -> 2% packet loss [13:03] Incarus: so ? [13:04] ikonia, lol, i dont know, i think so [13:04] Incarus: ok video now running ok, but still sound output to wrong card [13:04] Incarus: you think so what ? [13:04] Incarus: what is your point ? [13:04] ikonia, if he got 2% packet loss in an wired connection, the problem isnt the wireless card [13:04] Incarus: don't be silly - he had no resolution under wireless, %2 packet loss is not uncommon [13:05] ikonia, k [13:05] Incarus: the internet / ISP is big a small ammount of packet loss is not unheard of [13:05] aim, what router do you have ? [13:05] ikonia, i dont really have packet loss in germany [13:06] i lost mine and a crow ate them [13:06] I just did: ping 74.125.127.100 (google) and got 2% loss. [13:06] aim, on wired or wireless? [13:06] Black phantom, the router is fine, there are other laptops on the network. [13:06] Incarus: again, what is your point ? [13:06] wireless. [13:06] "62 packets transmitted, 62 received, 0% packet loss, time 61243ms" [13:06] who help me vonfiguring a bot? [13:06] ah ok [13:07] silidan, cant help you with that [13:07] ikonia, forget it [13:07] tavi: the bots normally have their own support channels/resources [13:07] tavi, what kind of bot ? [13:07] I get intermittent chronic loss. [13:07] aim, check your connection, have you got a weak signal? [13:08] gozerbot [13:08] Incarus: No, signal is 90-95%.

I've tried freenx and still i can't do it. Can anyone recommend me something please ? (Remote Desktop is slow..) [13:09] There are other wireless devices on the network without issues. [13:09] Whenever I open rhythmbox it complains about not being able to open .wma files. How do I make it stop? [13:09] aim, and whats the problem with the packet loss, internet should work. or? [13:09] Firexox youtube sound out on wrong card in 2 soundcard setup how can i change it ??? [13:10] Zopiac, you could use another player like vlc or mplayer [13:10] Incarus, Internet should not have 15 seconds of just dead loss. [13:10] silidan are u using OSS or ALSA? [13:10] aim, yes [13:10] Gh0stN0te: alsa [13:10] Incarus, it also appears to only affect one protocl though, http. IRC, Torrents and Updates all appear fine. [13:10] anyone managed to control display 0 using freenx ? [13:11] Incarus: well 1 it didnt use to do this until i recently reinstalled ubuntu again and 2 i havent found any other program I like [13:11] silidan some moths ago i ve got a similar issue with an external motu audio-card [13:11] Gh0stN0te: at least this is what system->blabla->sound tells me [13:11] hi all. i was wondering does anyone here use a tablet - or can recommend handwriting recognition tools [13:11] Zodiac, have you tried amarok? [13:11] Gh0stN0te: did you solve it and how? [13:11] so someone help me whit my gozerbot? [13:11] hello! is there a way to keep the mouse in a certain area? e.g. in a quadrat with 100x100 pixel? [13:12] tavi: you're asking in the wrong channel [13:12] tavi: this is for ubuntu support only [13:12] Zodiac, "sudo apt-get install win32-codecs", and it should work [13:12] Pille456: yes use lego bricks to confine mouse movement [13:12] [Ubuntu 9.04 GNOME] After startup 'Volume Applet 2.26.1' appears on the panel as muted. I can enable it then by hand. How can I configure that this applet will not appear muted after each bootup? [13:12] silidan: haha :P [13:12] aim, which ubuntu version? [13:12] gozrbot is in the repository pf ubuntu [13:12] of [13:12] aim: yes i have, and dragon, and mplayer, vlc, and quite a few others [13:12] Incarus, 9.04 [13:12] gozerbot [13:13] Zodiac, "sudo apt-get install win32-codecs", and it should work [13:13] ugh my name isnt Zodiac [13:13] *Zopiac [13:13] sry [13:13] :) [13:13] XD [13:13] but the problem simply disappeared by itself... let me explain: When i ve set by the audio control tool that my pc have 2 use the alsa driver on the ext installed audiocard, i was unable to get sound from firefox, a quick reboot of the machine, have solved this. [13:13] Zopiac, is that because you d fell over? [13:13] Lol, I only just realised it was a p as opposed to d. [13:13] Incarus: couldnt find package [13:13] badeagle: lol idk i thought of the name years ago [13:13] How can I specify that when nautilus is invoked to open a folder, it should open a new tab in an old nautilus window if possible? [13:14] Pille456: what do oyu mean with is there a way: do you want to lock youre mouse to a certain screen area ? [13:14] Pille456: in a program you write or what else? [13:14] i'm trying to remote control my display 0. I've tried freenx and still i can't do it. Can anyone recommend me something please ? (Remote Desktop is slow..) [13:14] Zopiac, oh [13:15] Incarus, do we have a potential solution to this packet loss? [13:15] I'm on 9.04? [13:15] when you open a folder in nautilus you go to edit->preferences->behavior and check the little thingy on the top that says open in tabs [13:15] Incarus: 9.04 might not have the codecs [13:16] silidan: yep exactly this. some programs run in windowed mode (most likly games xD) and its just anoying to put back the courser everytime. i was just wondering if there a program or something else to look down the cursor [13:16] it says *Always open in browser windows....which is tabbed Nautilus. Enjoy! [13:16] lock* [13:16] Zopiac, yes, wait [13:16] aim, i dont know [13:17] it's a strange issue. [13:17] Pille456: at least i didnt find one when i searched for something similar :), maybe its a capability of a window manager involved dunno... [13:17] Pille456: xnee part of xautomation [13:17] Rabbitbunny: thanks, i'll have a look at this [13:17] in the repos even. [13:17] rubystallion, the answer you received doesn't seem to be what you were looking for [13:17] !speedtest [13:17] Sorry, I don't know anything about speedtest [13:18] Zopiac, http://geekzine.org/2008/11/17/add-windows-codecs-to-ubuntu-intrepid-810-w32codecs-or-w64codecs/ [13:19] Incarus: E: Package w32codecs has no installation candidate [13:19] Zopiac, use this (its for jaunty) (scroll down): http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-mplayer-and-multimedia-codecs-libdvdcss2w32codecsw64codecs-in-ubuntu-904-jaunty.html [13:19] for the w32 codecs you need to go to th emedibuntu page and follow the directions for enabling the proper repositories [13:19] anyone can help me with a remote setup ? I'm trying to access display 0 [13:20] badeagle: ditty_kong: Yes, it's not what I was looking for. I have that option activated, but when I click for example Places->Home folder there's still a new window opened. [13:20] hey, ubuntu-restricted-extras [13:20] I'd like to change the Amarok launcher so it would first mount a samba share and then start Amarok. can any body help me witht his? [13:20] Zopiac, "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" could work [13:20] Incarus: already have it [13:20] how to acheive never more than one nautilus open... seems like a tough one [13:21] !w32codecs | Zopiac [13:21] Zopiac: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [13:21] Aijse: google bash scripting. write two line script. have laucher.. launch script. [13:21] help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu [13:21] Zopiac, k [13:21] Every time i reboot my ubuntu (9.04 jaunty) machine it starts up alot of applications, allthough the "remember opened applications" checkbox is unchecked in the "sessions" window. Where are those apps stored ? [13:21] Zopiac, vlc is working without special codecs [13:21] Rabbitbunny, thanks I'll have a look [13:22] gnelisse: Close everything and save your session. [13:22] badeagle: I'll look through the startup options, maybe that way I could make it work at least for my folder icons in the panel. [13:22] how do i save the session ? [13:22] gnelisse, check the checkbox, and reboot without any programms open, then uncheck [13:22] gnelisse: Remember those options you were messing with? [13:22] when you log out, there is an option. save session [13:22] hmm let me try [13:23] gnelisse: System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications [13:23] Rabbitbunny: How do you think xnee could help me?^^ [13:23] what empathy version is availble in Ubuntu ? [13:23] janty [13:23] Pille456: xnee allows you to move the mouse via script. [13:23] i think this should be enlisted as "bug" anyway [13:23] the checkbox is off, so why would i want to open programs i used 3 months ago [13:24] kaduk, http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/empathy 2.26.1-1ubuntu1 [13:24] It's not a bug, you simply forgot that you've already saved a session. [13:24] bh [13:24] badeagle: Hmm, there's no command line option to use an existing session [13:24] so where are those sessions stored ? [13:24] Rabbitbunny: Hmm alright, sound like, i've to google a bit ;) [13:24] any config file i can edit? [13:24] ​where would i put codecs that i download? .dll, .ax, .acm, etc. files [13:24] Incarus, My girlfriend is using interpid and because she has Intel mobile card I cant upgrade remotly her system. What do You suggest to install latest empathy ? [13:24] rubystallion, seems like this is no feature like that coded into it [13:24] Zopic, dll wont work in linux [13:25] hm, says it was for linux [13:25] lol [13:25] badeagle: Well, guess I'll have to wait until it appears then ;) [13:25] Zopiac, what is this for? [13:25] "codec pack for Linux" [13:25] kaduk, download manually latest packages and fix all errors [13:25] Zopiac, do you have alink for this [13:26] coz_: no, i just closed it out :\ [13:26] Sound recording doesn't work (not even with the sound recorder program), so I can't use Skype :( Any suggestions on how to start figuring out what's wrong? [13:26] Zopiac: just follow the Medibuntu guide for multimedia codecs or you can always just run apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras there is no need for all that other stuff [13:26] salut [13:26] Zopiac, it should be in firefox history [13:26] kaduk, could work [13:26] coz_: well for one i dont use firefox [13:26] ya des french? [13:26] kaduk, i use jaunty with pdigin from karmic [13:26] coz_: and also i have the history erase on exit (for Opera) [13:26] ya des french?

[13:30] Hi, i bought a brand new PC and tried to install Ubuntu Server 9.04 from a CD. During partitioning of the harddrive with encrypted LVM, my master slave power strip generated a power interrupt and so the partitioning broke. Now, when i turn the PC back on, i cannot boot anymore.

DQS training failed on previous boot, reverted to slower DRAM speed Press F1 to Resume [13:30] is program to iso for pendrive? [13:31] kaduk, if you open synapitc pacakge manager there is a tab under repositories with backport repors [13:31] I could also Press DEL to run Setup, or F8 for BBS POPUP or ALT+F2 to exeute ASUS EZ Flash 2 [13:31] what could i do? [13:31] kaduk, hm http://live.gnome.org/Empathy/Install but i dont know [13:31] coz_, Can I do that from console ?

[13:32] How do I change permission on a folder? I have something on my desktop I want to delete but it seems to be root only [13:32] Incarus: what is latest flash fr ubuntu 9.04 ??

[13:33] @ditty_kong i also entered setup to change CD ROM to primary boot device, but that didnt change anything [13:33] Incarus, there was repo for Interpid GREAT thanks !

[13:40] Thanks, anyone know anything on firefox and citrix? [13:40] there's not wine [13:40] I was having problems with the desktop install cd, used alternate install image, it still liked to fail at setting up packages, i just skipped over that after the fail and finished the install and set root a passwd so icould use the computer after reboot [13:40] Here is the results of "fdisk -l", and "df -h" http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/210340/ [13:40] !ask | tlisanti [13:40] tlisanti: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily).

[13:40] ditty_kong, no, there is no server live cd edition [13:41] Bodsda: i did it yesterday in live ubuntu with no problems [13:41] Exor, download latest wine from winehq.org [13:41] Exor: so, did you follow the instructions properly this time? [13:41] @ path1: I'll tell you what I'd do, but I cant really recommend it because I dont know whats on your hard drive. .......I would just erase the HD, start over [13:42] hello world.. i just tried to install mysql-server from console (apt-get) and it gave me an error.. broken package :| .. what is this? does anyone know? how do i solve this? [13:42] Exor, download from here: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/pool/main/w/wine/ [13:42] @ditty_kong computer is brand new and nothing is on my harddrive [13:42] yesterday i didn't follow any istructions ... :S ... i only started synaptic, searched for wine and install it [13:42] cy21, "sudo apt-get install -f" [13:42] @ditty_kong how do i do it? ...erase the hard drive? i dont get a console or something [13:43] @ path1: well if nothing is on the HD, just erase and start over [13:43] path1, with live cd [13:43] path1 what are you doing ? === Ziro is now known as dnel [13:43] where is the file xpti.dat located (it should be a firefox file i guess) [13:43] Incarus: Please dont recommend people download a deb from a web resource.

Then, put the server cd in when you reboot. It should ask for an operating system or something like that [13:43] @ditty_kong so i download normal ubuntu live cd and try it?

[13:52] you want to go into your bios disk setup page and ensure that your cd/hd are being recognized and that your boot orderarre set to cdrom first? [13:52] @kitty_ did it, but still the same black screen with white blinking cursor in the upper left... did not help [13:52] cy21, the package name is "mysql-server-5.0_5.1.30really5.0.75-0ubuntu10.2_i386.deb" (5.0 and 5.1), maybe a bug [13:52] @ path1: yeah you should at least try what kitty suggests. I have recommending that u nuke ur hard drive but a partitionar was interrupted [13:52] * ihate [13:52] bbl [13:52] Incarus, i need to remove tha? or ?t [13:52] cy21, no [13:52] [Ubuntu 9.04 GNOME] After startup 'Volume Applet 2.26.1' appears on the panel as muted. I can enable it then by hand. How can I configure GNOME so that this applet will not appear muted after each bootup? [13:52] cy21, that is strange [13:53] @ditty_kong so it could be the harddrive?? also CD ROM is set to primary boot device? [13:53] Incarus, the package is not good ? [13:53] cy21, i recommend to remove all mysql packages (with dpkg -r) and reinstall with apt-get. [13:53] @ path1: no i dont think ur hard drive is bad, just that it didnt get written to correctly because of the interrupt [13:53] i setup lamp but when i run localhost i am not able to get anything i also wrote a php.index file and placed it in /var/www calling the function phpinfo(); but when i access it through my browser it simply shows the code without showing the output...can anyone help me get it right [13:53] @ditty_kong maybe i can remove the harddrive and put it into an external box and then i trie formatting it or something like that... partitioning it again... maybe that wil help? [13:54] path1 if you goto the bios disk selection page and can ensure both your cdrom and hd are being detected, we can rule out some hardware failure issues [13:54] @ path1: but if it was a power surge it is possible...but i doubt it [13:54] path1 if you also go back and double check that your boot order is cdrom first that'd be great [13:54] Incarus, i just write "sudo dpkg -r" in the console? it should do it? [13:54] when you reset to defaults it may change these settings [13:54] @ path1 : follow what kitty is asking u to do. the ubuntu live cd can do all that for you anyway there is no need to remove the hard drive [13:55] @kitty_ SATA1 Hitachi HDT721010S, SATA2 HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH [13:55] What is the best way to problem solve a wireless connection. I can see the network, and connect but I still cannot get on the internet [13:55] When I've navigated to a folder not belonging in Nautilus, is there a way to somehow "unlock" it and enable modifying it (after typing a password)? Or is it necessary to start a completely different nautilus window with root privileges? [13:55] cy21, no, type "sudo apt-get remove mysql-server-5.1" and it should work [13:56] cy21, in console [13:56] But PRIMARY IDE MASTER and PRIMARY IDE Slave are not detected [13:56] ...is that a problem? i guess its because of SATA? [13:56] good, do you have a boot menu where you can select which sata device to boot from first? [13:56] path1, hd could be broken [13:56] path1, or? [13:56] #rurouni-team [13:57] if you only have the 1 hd and 1 cdrom i'd say they are probably fine [13:57] @kitty_ yes, i select 1stBoot Device CDRO:4m-HL-DT-ST and 2nd Boot Device SATA: 3M-Hitachi-HD [13:57] i only have one cdrom and one harddrive [13:57] i have ubuntu nbr and i cant get itvplayer to work, it needs silverlight, and i intstalled the moonlight plug in but no luck :/ [13:57] Any thoughts on how to problem solve wireless connection issues? [13:58] Incarus, did that.. and i purged , autoremoved, removed, cleaned mysql-server, mysql-server-5.0, mysql-server-5.1 [13:58] hi i was just wondering how you make a iso image of your hdd [13:58] @kitty_ downloading of ubuntu 9.04 normal edition is at 31% ...but i still have the bootable ubuntu 9.04 server edition... downloaded from ubuntu.com [13:58] Incarus, and then i reinstalled like this: "sudo apt-get install mysql-server" [13:58] cy21, what do you want to install next, 5.1 or 5.0? [13:58] is there an opensource alternative to flash? [13:58] Incarus, and i got this error http://pastebin.com/d74ff9b9 [13:58] Incarus, what version do you reccomend ?

[14:02] be more vague [14:02] silidan, ogg vorbis [14:02] i am using image writer [14:02] Gparted shows my disk as unallocated. Here's a terminal readout of fdisk -l, and df -h. Does anyone see anything wrong with my partitioning? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/210340/ [14:02] Anyone here know how to use iptables?

[14:06] i guessing path1 left his computer to boot a little longer and it worked? [14:07] silidan, yeah, but they got a beta version [14:07] silidan3, no wait, its theora, not vorbis [14:07] I have a self-assembled *.deb file how to properly install it with aptitude? [14:07] silidan3, http://blog.dailymotion.com/2009/05/27/watch-videowithout-flash/ [14:08] kitty_, thats what i am doing [14:08] i select boot from USB drive from BIOS [14:08] amgarchIn9, right click, install, if its a pkg in aptitude you can mark it as manually installed for dependancy purposes later [14:09] ok maverick, and what happens when you do that? [14:09] but the boot fails , giving a message Boot Error [14:09] @kitty_ i let it sit for 5 minutes... that was the longest [14:09] maverick what all screens do you get before you get this boot error message [14:09] path1 so its still not booting or doing anything? [14:09] nothing, that the first screen [14:09] yep [14:10] <]pablo[> guys, im having trouble with keymap, after upgrading into 2.6.30 kernel, my spanish layout stopped working in console-mode [14:10] <]pablo[> and i cant type accents whatsover [14:10] @kitty_ no it didnt work :( [14:10] maverick: most computers have this energystarcompliant star in the upper right corner when their bios is reporting whats going on in the startup, do you get that or a splash screen from your video card or dell/hp/gateway logos? [14:10] Incarus: thanks, altough video and audi run at normal speed, sound goes still to wrong sound card :( [14:11] @kitty_ doesnt do anything... :( [14:11] <]pablo[> i-ve tried dpkg-reconfigure locales and dpkg-reconfigure console-data [14:11] <]pablo[> but it-s not helping [14:11] is there a firefox channel? [14:11] there are some files in the syslinux directory ( i mounted the img to a virtual drive and saw the content files) , some of the filenames read invalid encoding .. is that okay ? === uncle|sam is now known as Uncle|Sam [14:11] silidan3, ok, np [14:12] path1 is there an option for "boot menu" when your computer is starting up, its either f11,f10,f12 or escape on most computers [14:12] silidan3, did you try another browser? [14:12] not yet [14:12] kitty_, yeah i do get that - i aslo see that the usb drive has been detected [14:12] maverick did you install grub on the stick? [14:12] Incarus: what would you recomment? [14:12] http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/5854/serveryab.jpg . This is a screen shot of my home server. Now I want to shift to a VPS with the same set of apps installed. How much dedicated RAM should I get ? [14:12] silidan3, opera [14:12] i dont know kitty_ i used the Image Writer GUI as said in the Ubuntu Wiki page [14:12] silidan3, i also use opera to chat here [14:12] @kitty_ not always, sometimes the screen just wents black when i press DEL for Bios, but sometimes it works and i can enter the BIOS... but i dont know what i could do there, but ok... i will enter it again :) [14:13] silidan3, integrated irc [14:13] path1, you mean your computer is locking up when you're trying to enter bios? [14:13] silidan3, firefox channel is "firefox" [14:13] Incarus: opera is not available via synaptic? [14:13] @kitty_ no, i can enter Bios [14:14] silidan3, no, not open source, www.opera.com [14:14] @kitty_ for example, it says: System Memory: Installed Size 4096, Usable Size 3840 [14:14] hi all [14:14] you just said sometimes the screen goes black when you hit DEL for bios [14:14] @kitty_ Processer: Brand: AMD Processor model unknown, Speed 2600Mhz, Count 4 [14:14] path1, i'd start by underclocking your hd, removing your hd and trying to boot with just your cdrom in, and see if you can get your system stable [14:15] hardware [14:15] #ubuntu-br [14:15] if opera is not open source there is no reason in using it for me [14:15] @kitty_ yes, sometimes, when i use CTRL+ALT+DEL to reboot, i cannot enter Bios by hitting DEL ... because after i hit it, the screen wents black with blinking cursor [14:15] you know how you had that boot failure and it said "restore defaults" [14:15] silidan3: why? [14:15] !bluetooth [14:15] For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup [14:15] but when i power off the computer and power it on again and press DEL, it works .... [14:15] thats probably cause you've either had a hardware failure or you've over clocked your system to the point that it is unstable [14:15] sometimes it even works after CTRL+ALT+DEL [14:16] non open source stuff tends to be a dead end [14:16] silidan3: that's very CLOSED minded [14:16] silidan3, there is a reason, its the first browser with tabs and the features [14:16] kitty_, i tried to install moblin v2 beta before this and that worked fine [14:16] silidan3, security ... [14:16] so i dont think the flash drive is damaged [14:17] @kitty_ i did a bios reset several times now ... and saved the default settings... so could my system be still overclocked? [14:17] I search for bluetooth, but the onw comming up here is for older Ubuntu. Are the new ones for 9.04 ? [14:17] @kitty_ how could i underclock my HD? [14:17] silidan3, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opera_(web_browser) [14:17] i meant to type hardware, but you can change your timing settings in bios [14:17] my bios lets me set the cpu freq and bus speeds on my processor and memory [14:17] @kitty_ what is meant by: "kitty_: you know how you had that boot failure and it said "restore defaults"" [14:18] silidan3, its the only browser which work on windows 95/98/me [14:19] you said that you had a screen read something like "system failed on last reboot" and it said to reload the system defaults [14:19] Hi im writing a script that includes the mount volume, but when I execute it I get the obvious error that it needs to be run by root. I dont want to have to use sudo to use the script. can some 1 help me solve this? [14:19] that happens when your computer is booting up, and it failes to do the bios tests, for whatever reason, most of the time that is caused by overclocking bus speeds or cpu/memory [14:20] Aijse: you need root privilages to mout, so no [14:20] @kitty_ i dont find where i could under or overclock my harddrive... what should i look for? [14:21] path1, i dont think kitty_ meant overclock harddrive , she meant hardware (hd) [14:22] Cant I create some kind of permissions that would solve it? I thought that when I use suid and the file is owned bu root it would work [14:22] maverick340, hd is the short form of harddrive [14:22] hi, is there a tool you can download to remove duplicate files say from a usb stick [14:23] !info fdup [14:23] Package fdup does not exist in jaunty [14:23] Incarus: great now opera also needs flash to install.... [14:23] silidan3,y es XD [14:23] Incarus: how can i deinstall opera? [14:23] !info fdupes [14:23] fdupes (source: fdupes): identifies duplicate files within given directories. In component main, is optional. Version 1.50-PR2-1 (jaunty), package size 17 kB, installed size 84 kB [14:23] silidan3, thats normal [14:23] Incarus, i have seen users used hd as hardware too . Anyways how do you overclock your hard drive from BIOS ? [14:23] silidan3, but opera should use firefox plguins [14:23] *plugins [14:24] good point Aijse [14:24] maverick340, hm, ok [14:24] maverick340: all you can do is use dma, and switcht 32 bit mode [14:24] Aijse: chmod 4755 /path/to/file [14:24] maverick340, "hw" [14:24] as root ofc [14:24] ok lets see [14:24] Aijse, you can give add mount in sudoes [14:25] file [14:25] silidan3, yeah .. i wonder what path1 , kitty_ were talking about | guess i am little lost :( sorry [14:26] which terminal in ubuntu has horizontal scroll? [14:26] Anyone know how I can do a software playthrough of my USB mic? [14:26] Drunks: still says need root permissions [14:26] maverick340: what dou you actually want to achieve? [14:26] silidan3, opera müsste das firefox flash plugin benutzen [14:26] Incarus: How would I go and do that? [14:26] silidan3, i am trying to boot UNR with a flash drive [14:27] Aijse, edit "/etc/sudoers", but i dont know the exact entry [14:27] what is unr? [14:27] however after i write the img file to the flash drive and restart PC to boot from the drive , i get a black screen with Boot Error written on it [14:27] maverick340: and how is this related to youre question of how you can overclock youre hard drive from bios? [14:27] Is there a conversion tool for Access files to Base? [14:27] how do I remove config files left over after "aptitude remove"? [14:27] silidan3 he was cornfused [14:27] silidan3, that was not my question :) [14:27] amgarchin9 "aptitude purge" i beleive [14:28] you said: "maverick340: Incarus, i have seen users used hd as hardware too . Anyways how do you overclock your hard drive from BIOS ?" [14:28] whatever silidan [14:28] silidan3, remove opera with "sudo apt-get remove opera" [14:28] i am in need of the original .bashrc (normal user and root) for ubuntu 9.04. Can somebody help me out? [14:28] get stuck on something and not help thats fine [14:28] in relation to what path1 asked .. [14:28] If I delete a hardlink, does that delete the actual file? [14:29] Incarus: thanks its gone now [14:29] maverick, what is this unr thing that you're installing and what disk image stuff are you talking about? [14:29] np [14:29] i was just wondering if there was any software you could use to make an iso image of your hdd [14:29] kitty_, Ubuntu Netbook Remix [14:29] gimme a link to that [14:29] em... isnt there something like makeiso or so native to linux.. [14:30] so i can get my head arround what you're trying to do [14:30] following instructions as given on the wiki page [14:30] hang on [14:30] ok, got a link? [14:30] maverick340: you want to install ubuntu netbook remix on bootable usb stick ? [14:31] i no longer use hard drives, i use microsd cards for my computers, cause i've just had too much trouble with failures, so i like to think of myself as experienced with getting a system to boot from a usb stick [14:31] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles [14:32] silidan3, no i need to write the IMG file to a usb stick , since netbooks dont have a cd drive [14:32] sorry, i asked this before,,,i have ubuntu nbr and i cant get itvplayer to work, it needs silverlight, and i intstalled the moonlight plug in but no luck :/ [14:32] hm... you can mount the iso and copy the stuff onto usb stick [14:32] tried it [14:32] mickster04, which version of silverlight does it need?

[14:44] @kitty_ woohooo , i opened by computer and i removed the power cable and data cable from my hard disk... now it asks me for a proper boot device and i could insert a CD [14:44] ivan__, yes, so i would check it out first, like have a look at the list, i ur laptop isnt there it may e alot of work for something that might not work [14:45] can I update jaunty to Linux mint? [14:45] jagadeesh: no [14:45] ok thanks [14:45] jschiff, also what is it the application ubuntu uses to install .deb ?

Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang) [14:45] jschiff: apt-get [14:45] rski, it not possibble?

[14:48] tchalldaway, have you tried a virtual machine? [14:48] tchalldaway: you will need to install grub after win7 to make it work agfain [14:48] !grub [14:48] 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 [14:48] tchalldaway, if your using win7 why such an old version of ubuntu ? [14:48] Emery: doing that sort of thing is convoluted and will just clog up you system with unnecessary packages, i wouldn't do it without a DAM good reason [14:48] hmmm but there is no repos for 5.1, how do i go about install windows 7 if i cant technically burn it because i have no burning software [14:49] tchalldaway: wodim is your burning software [14:49] because i had the ubuntu install cd ;) [14:49] is vodim pre installed?

Hmm okey never used it for yahoo anyways [14:58] So nobody can help me with my USB issues? The ones where my whole system crashes after accessing external storage devices.

[16:06] im about ot hum in corners [16:06] path1 you might want to try booting from cd then using gparted [16:06] *hump [16:06] silidan, try out Epiphany, flash will work with it 100% with sound [16:06] <^^gurami^^Dn> the download was interupt with the error ... what happen? [16:06] @joebodo but i can only boot frmo CD if i unplug my primary hard drive [16:06] ^^gurami^^Dn: http://wubi-installer.org/support.php [16:06] path1 you need to set your bios to boot from CD as the first device [16:06] Shadowww: can you explain where i can find a simple users guide to aking an iso image? [16:07] ^^gurami^^Dn: how could one know what went wrong so many posibilites [16:07] mripguru, can you tell me the model no. exactly ? so that it would be easier to research [16:07] does ubuntu use flash for internal sounds ? [16:07] ^^gurami^^Dn: have you tried running it again? [16:07] silidan: define internal sounds [16:07] @joebodo i already did this several times and i also tried to hit F8 to choose boot device at startup.. but nothing helped beside unplugging my harddrive [16:07] the ubuntu theme sounds, when you hit a button for example, or when oyu log in [16:07] path1, change the jumper settings on the hdd perhaps? [16:07] silidan, no [16:07] somebody1, just execute command I gave you. ISO image is raw data copy. [16:07] silidan: no that's not flashplayer [16:08] path1 do you have a usb keyboard ? [16:08] @joebodo no, i use ps/2 [16:08] so my problem with flash is also ubuntu related, cause ubuntus sounds behave just like flash [16:08] Shadowww: just, "dd"? [16:08] @joebodo but i could get an usb keyboard from my brother if that helps [16:08] silidan, using two sound cards? [16:08] yes [16:08] dd if=input_location of=output_location [16:08] you can also specify bs=block_size [16:08] path1 what you need to do can be done with the correct bios settings - [16:09] path1 ps2 keyboard is better [16:09] @joebodo i also tried to reset my bios to default, but did not help [16:09] I just installed Gnome DO, how do I launch it? ;P [16:10] @joebodo i did not try a hardware reset ...with the battery... but i dont know how to do that, it is as difficult for me as it is to figure out if my board supports hotplug [16:10] my specs: ubuntu 9.04 and two (2) soundcards [16:10] anybody know how to get gnome global menus? [16:10] Squeese, Gnome desktop envir. u mean exactly ? [16:10] path1 is it an IDE hard drive ? [16:10] Squeese, log out, select gnome session and log back in with it === The_Toxic_Mite is now known as l0pht [16:10] Squeese, is there no documentation? [16:11] @joebodo no, SATA [16:11] mickster04: the menu is made up on the fly from the files in /usr/share/applications [16:11] Shadowww: why did you put underscores between the words input and location and output and location? [16:11] path1 if it's not USB - i would not unplug while the computer is running [16:11] uh, I usually write like that. [16:11] one strange thing i noticed, since i put optios for my to soudncards to index=-2 the have now indices 1 and 2 [16:11] th0r, well its a thing that put menus into the panel... [16:11] if file path contains spaces it must be included in " 's [16:11] path1 double check your bios and make sure you have CD as the first boot device === tyler_ is now known as lolballs [16:12] @joebodo so i will not, but i dont know hot to repartition my harddrive. i have no other computer with a SATA plug to do it [16:12] path1 also, your CD may not be bootable - that may be another issue [16:12] @joebodo ok i will check it again [16:12] mickster04: you mean the applet....it is in the list of panel apps, I am not in gnome right now so can't tell you the exact name [16:12] Shadowww: quotationmarks? [16:12] yes [16:12] mickster04: right click on the panel and choose add [16:12] @joebodo tried 2 different uvbuntu, a vista and xp cd... nothing worked as long as the hard drive was plugged in [16:12] th0r, yeah:) well i thought i had to install it first... === l0pht is now known as The_Toxic_Mite [16:13] @joebodo yes, CD ROM is primary boot device [16:14] silidan, no worky? [16:14] @joebodo and it still doesnt boot. hard drive is plugged in again... at the moment [16:14] no [16:16] path1, have u checked jumper settings... [16:16] don't know where else to ask this: how can I import multiple themes into Emerald? [16:17] does anyone know how to get log in whit pw back if u did't check it in the instalation of xubuntu [16:17] ? [16:17] im trying now index=-3 and -4 for the 2 cards be right back [16:17] xc just dont enter a password? [16:17] path1 do you have them on the same cable or different cables ? [16:17] xc, blank ? [16:18] Hello! [16:18] @mickster04 no not yet, i dont know where or what to check [16:18] silidan: just add index0 for the one you want :o [16:18] damn my head is on the verge of exploding, i can already see linux commands on the door, later peeps [16:18] but i have no pw log in when i start my computer i i came right in to the desktop [16:18] @joebodo hmm, same cable [16:18] I downloaded Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop edition, but wasn't able to find an option to enable /home directory encryption during installation. I hear when starting the install from the ISO I should add --encrypt-home to the boot command in order for the checkmark box to appear? [16:18] no password needed [16:18] black_phantom you could download the new kernel source and header [16:18] but i want a pw [16:18] path1 if you have another cable use that - it's not good to have CD on the same cable as hard drive [16:18] to log in [16:18] and compile your own kernel without ubuntu patches [16:18] I'm going to have to dd my disks again and reinstall. Crap. [16:19] dakarn, why ? [16:19] xc, go to terminal and type "passwd" [16:19] ok [16:19] xc open console, then type 'passwd' command [16:19] xc, you have auto login enabled? [16:19] black_phantom: to finish yourself off [16:19] xc then disable autologin [16:19] dakarn, LOL === Ankit is now known as ankit [16:19] @joebodo oh, wrong... they actually are on different cables as i can see now. [16:19] Anyone have any idea about my USB speaker issue? [16:19] how to dissable auto login [16:19] ? [16:20] 1234 [16:20] xc: it's the ubuntu setup [16:20] !enter | xc [16:20] xc: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! === AmbrNewlearner is now known as AmbrNew [16:22] xc system->administration->login screen (or something like that, I am on localized version) then check off autologin on 'security' tab [16:22] Hello, I installed audio codecs but still sound is not coming... Any ideas? === tyler is now known as Guest22072 [16:24] !audo | ambrnew [16:24] Sorry, I don't know anything about audo [16:24] !audio | ambrnew [16:24] ambrnew: 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 [16:25] is there a tool with which i can make diagrams like circles and elipses easily ? [16:25] OpenOffice Draw [16:25] vick, open offic draw? [16:25] vick: it's an engineering tool they use to draw blueprints [16:25] and Gimp (GNU Image manipulation program) [16:26] ubuntu still insists on using my 2nd soundcard after log in [16:26] joebodo: let me see [16:26] silidan1, set default sond card? [16:26] how can i install server9.04 through network? cd-drive aint working on a comp i intalling to [16:26] n0gear: netboot [16:27] n0gear: or usb-boot [16:27] hello [16:27] hello [16:27] I'm new [16:27] guys. My 9.04 started freezing randomly. and by freezing i mean a complete freeze. screen stays the same. does not react to anything but hard reboot [16:27] me too ^^ [16:27] first install xubuntu [16:27] let me just logout and in again [16:27] hello [16:27] and it's work [16:27] how can i get and set pointer location in python (outside the program window) ? [16:27] cool [16:28] pelmen: sounds like overheating [16:28] first time internet working by USB modem [16:28] all distro linux work cool ^^ [16:28] hmm [16:28] that may be possible... [16:28] many thx to all the documentation [16:28] how do i check ? [16:28] i added the repo for gnome-do from intrepid on my Hardy Heron install and now I can't use nautilus as root. typing gksudo nautilus gives me the following errors. (nautilus:9248): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_error_free: assertion `error != NULL' failed [16:28] pelmen: with a thermometer [16:28] see you next time [16:28] pelmen: or with lm_sensors if you have sensors on the hardware [16:29] pelmen you can try lmsensors to monitor your cpu temperature (if you motherboard supports it) [16:29] no it can't be... sometimes it works straight 8 hours sometimes like today 10 minutes [16:29] any one here using a realtek dialup modem in ubuntu? [16:29] is anybody fammiliar with openoffice draw ? [16:29] vick: yup [16:29] mazda01, adding repo's from different versions is a great way to break things. [16:29] pelmen hard lockup is usually due to hardware issues - like overheating or bad memory or power supply is dying [16:29] aethelrick, Is it possible to make basic shapes {circles, elipses, etc..} which are empty from inside ? [16:30] i have very basic question , what is sudo means ? [16:30] pelmen: faulty hardware. could be hdd, ram, gfx etc. [16:30] crap its a new desktop [16:30] ubuntu is still ignoring whatever i set with asoundconf [16:30] bastid_razor, so do you have any suggestions for fixing gksudo nautilus? === somebody1 is now known as treet [16:30] pelmen: tried any other os? [16:30] no... :) [16:30] mazda01, remove the odd ball repo and do a dist-upgrade and hope it fixes the packages that have been mucked [16:30] omr SUperuser-DO [16:30] hmm can i somehow troubleshoot ? [16:31] ok [16:31] is there some new mechanism that decides what sound card gets used for ubuntus theme sounds in 9.04 ? [16:31] capah: I have similar issues with my cd drive === gaveen_ is now known as gaveen === treet is now known as tr3et [16:31] bastid_razor, i think I am on to something. I tried to run synaptic and it said it was unable to copy the users Xauthorization file. I think somehow the permissions for .Xauthority were changed to be read and write only for my user. WHat are the permissions for your .Xauthority file? [16:31] capah: for some reason, hitting the button twice seems to always eject (when cd is not mounted) [16:32] mazda01, rw for me only and owned by me [16:32] cause asoundconf set my 1st card as default (already rebooted, sound cards get loaded in same order always (index=0 for 1st; index=1 for 2nd) and system->setting->sound also set everything to my 1st card === liquid is now known as Likid0 [16:33] pelmen: sure, by removing one thing at a time and see what works and what doesn't. Mind that some vendors void the varanty if you open the chassi. :) [16:33] pelmen: could take some time though, as you said it sometimes works for 8h strait. [16:33] tonii: well i put it all together myself... damn tigerdirect [16:33] In the command line what does ' do ? [16:34] Hello [16:34] hi Julius [16:34] bastid_razor, dang it, that's what mine is already. that's not it. I wonder what that error means when it says; unable to copy the users xauthorization file. What are the permissions and owners for your home directory? [16:34] pelmen: ah. you used electric protection (or whatever it's called to avoid static) when you put it together? [16:34] !hi | julius [16:34] julius: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! === lynx is now known as Guest61893 [16:34] ls -la /home/usernamehere [16:34] the strange thing is: before i log in ubuntu theme sound plays trough sndcard 1 as i set all to it, but after i logged in it changes ubuntu theme sound out to sndcard 2 [16:34] tonii: hmm no [16:35] I'm trying to buy a webcam compatible with Ubuntu. Does one of you has an advice about this ? I need a 2 Mpix webcam min (around 60 € max) [16:35] pelmen: ouch :P [16:35] mazda01, drwxr-xr-x 75 razor razor 4.0K 2009-07-05 11:19 razor .. if you know how to translate that [16:35] tonii: tell me more :) [16:35] pelmen i had this behaviour someday in the past: turned out the power supply was to weak. [16:35] hmm.. [16:35] silidan1,it seems your preferences differ from the systems (eg. didnt change after 2nd was added) [16:35] rski: that looks seriously a lot of work that netboot. is there really no alternative? just need to install the server through network. [16:36] bastid_razor, yeah, tha's what mine is. dang it. [16:36] yea but why and more importantly how can i change this? [16:36] well let's think..450 watts for 4gb ram, 2.9 athlon x2 and geforce 9600 [16:36] ? [16:36] n0gear: none that i can think of no [16:36] n0gear: that's why everyone burns a cd and install to skip the hastle [16:36] mazda01, when you added the repo and added gnome-do what other packages were installed? [16:36] bastid_razor, i dont know what happened. I looked at my repos and it turns out I DIDN'T add that intrpid repo. So I am not sure what has happened? [16:36] can i log in ubuntu as root? [16:37] !root | silidan1 [16:37] silidan1, no. [16:37] silidan1: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [16:37] hi [16:37] <_kl_> Ребят есть живые кто? [16:37] rski: if no usb, no cd drive in machine (I assume its bad old blade server) you always can get off hdd and install system on other machine. Just add -server kernels by hand then [16:37] pelmen: you can damage components with charged up electrical in your body(depends on clothes), some times it shows up right away, some times it takes months for the damage to be noticable.

[16:38] pelmen funnily enough, just when i wrote you, my gnome freezed ... [16:39] mazda01, that is not a good sign. adding third party repo's are dangerous. [16:40] bastid_razor, i said I never added the key so it never tried to update anything. the problem occured with hardy ppa from launchpad for gnome-do .6. [16:40] pelmen: there are tools to lead away that sort of electricity, usually sold at the local computer shack. Anyhow, if possible try another OS to rule out ubuntu. and run some memory diagnostic tool to rule out mem-problem (usually available through the install cd).

[16:58] bastid_razor, thanks, could you also tell me again permissions for your users home folder. THANKS [16:58] path1: with a seperate home partition, you can reinstall the OS without losing your personal data/settings [16:59] sounds good [16:59] mazda01, they are also captured on the screenshot. [16:59] path1 what did you find out to be the problem? [16:59] path1: a separate /boot partition is useful for having multiple OS's (and early grub versions don't like booting from ext4...) [16:59] @kitty13kitty i didnt find out anything... the problem is with the harddrive... but when i unplug it, i can boot from cdrom. While system is running, i hotplug my hard disk and partition it [17:00] hi [17:00] any one here that have response on blender.dep [17:00] on a computer with intel gma945, the livecd doesn't launch in graphical mode (I have only a shell ubuntu@ubuntu$) [17:00] probably can't set your cd/dvd as the first boot since you have sata, and it was probably trying to boot from hd still [17:01] (my experience is that it just has the "boot from sata or scsi" but doesn't let you choose the device) [17:01] @kitty13kitty maybe. i couldnt find out wether my board supports hotplug, but i just tried and it worked [17:01] bastid_razor, thanks, so it's chmod 0755 for my users home directory [17:01] lucky me [17:01] :) [17:01] heh [17:02] bastid_razor, all fixed I hope. [17:02] bastid_razor, synaptic is running again. gksudo nautilus is working again. ALL is good. [17:02] !webmin [17:02] webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. [17:02] video drivers on thinkpad x31 2672 - anyone know where i can get alternative drivers? [17:03] leifdk1978: if you want to get in touch with blender developers, check their site. If you want to get in touch with the package maintainer, try launchpad. [17:03] ahh ok thanx [17:03] mazda01, good to know.. didn't know a full / would kill nautilus. good to make a note of. === funkyHat is now known as irobonaki [17:04] how do i update my kernel on a computer without an internet connection (hence cannot through apt-get) [17:04] bastid_razor, it pretty much killed everything. === max is now known as Guest18725 [17:04] Moult: you can download the packages on another computer, and then install with dpkg [17:05] still ubuntu doesnt play sound on the card i want, .asoundrc files in my home dir have no effect (at least when they are deletet) [17:05] gabkdlly: ok - where do i download the package? (my other computer is not a ubuntu computer) [17:05] bastid_razor, i wish I had a script or something that would tell me / is full. like something that would run every 10 mins and if it's full, a warning would pop up or an email would get sent to me. do you knbow how to write bash scripts? [17:05] Moult: packages.ubuntu.com [17:05] I installed office 2003 via wine, but then broke all my links. I'm trying to create new links, but can't find any office icons for the shortcuts. Where can I get them again? [17:05] bastid_razor, i want a script to look at my trash bin every hour and then if it's higher then 1GB, i want it to empty the trash. [17:05] when will ubuntu ever fix their stealthy settings hiding... where else are there settings regarding sound configuration ? [17:06] Moult: dpkg -i linux.kernel.package.name.here.deb [17:06] silidan1: we can only pray <.< [17:06] Moult: I think you will also need the headers, so don't forget those [17:06] Moult: though you can check on packages.ubuntu.com what the depedencies are exactly [17:07] if you just do the apt-get with the practice run you can get the package names for the ones it'll install, and you can always just download them all [17:07] gabkdlly: ok i want to 2.6.30-r10 kernel is this the one? http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/kernel-image-2.6.30-10-generic-di [17:08] silidan1, you tried installing pavucontrol [17:08] mazda01, no i wouldn't know how. [17:08] i mean i set stuff trough system->settings->sound but ubuntu simply ignores these settings [17:08] They don't have to be the exact same icons, just any icons for microsoft office would be fune [17:08] fine* === sverek is now known as see [17:09] question, how do i change the repositories used, right now it points to the install cd (cdrom://) and i'm having problems with missing packages [17:09] bazhang: no never heard of it will try [17:09] gabkdlly: i don't understand what is this "debian-installer" label it has? have i got the wrong one? [17:09] silidan1, may be worth a shot [17:10] hello, where can I ask Ubuntu Netbook Remix questions? [17:10] kitty13Kitty, synaptic>settings>repo's the very first tab will have an option for the CD .. uncheck it. reload [17:10] hi im using ubuntu server and wondering how do i install .deb files? [17:10] i can't get x running [17:11] maty: dpkg -i [17:11] maty, which deb files [17:11] kitty13Kitty: grapic card? [17:11] DRBL [17:11] kitty13Kitty: and drivers? [17:11] maty: or type aptitude for a cli graphical connection to the repos [17:11] kitty13Kitty, edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and add a # on the line that calls for the CD [17:11] no clue atm, it freezes everytime i run gdm [17:11] nope pavucontrol gives only -5 no such driver [17:11] maty, not in repos? [17:11] gabkdlly: the download is a .udeb file, not a .deb file - any hints? === ubuntunewbie is now known as abcd123 [17:12] not sure but i was planing of downloading and SCPing it [17:12] kitty13Kitty: i suffer from the same thing <.< === abcd123 is now known as ubuntunewbie [17:12] bazhang: no pavucontrol gives only -5 no such driver [17:12] deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ - Release powerpc (20090421)]/ jaunty main restricted [17:12] only line listed [17:12] maty, always best to check if in repos first; what is the exact package name [17:12] Found a bunch on deviant art [17:12] hola q tal [17:13] me podrian ayuda r a configurar una red de area local en ubuntu porfa [17:13] !es | julio_ [17:13] julio_: es un chat ingles [17:13] julio_: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [17:13] julio_, /join #ubuntu-es [17:13] ok gracias [17:13] Moult: actually, what you are trying to do is a bit over my head [17:14] gabkdlly: i am trying to upgrade the kernel of a fresh kubuntu install that does not have an internet connection === diddus2 is now known as asterisk8888 [17:14] moult, easiest solution, get it to the internet [17:14] How do i repair my xorg? First it failed to detect displays, after attempting to reinstall grapic drivers it freezez after attempting to start(xdm, gdm, wdm login window) [17:14] kitty13Kitty: yes, and to do that i need the latest kernel [17:14] Moult, that is not a wise decision [17:14] doubtful [17:14] hello [17:15] del_diablo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [17:15] bazhang: what, updating kernel? [17:15] Moult, putting an unpatched (by Ubuntu) kernel, or one from a later release (ie Alpha) will break things [17:16] bazhang: sounds like Moult can't get his nic or wireless card going without the latest kernel (via update I assume) and can't get to the internet without the new kernel [17:16] bazhang: i never said unpatched, i assume there are ubuntu packages for kernels in karmic [17:16] anyluck there del diablo? [17:16] Moult apt-get -d linux-generic on some other machine (that has net) then retrive .debs from apt-get cache [17:16] scunizi: very right. not wireless byt the way [17:16] scunizi, yep, wants to use Karmic kernel (breakage time) [17:17] * kitty13Kitty wonders if sshd freezes when running gdm... [17:17] Moult then get these packages via other means (lan/usb/courier pidgeons) to machine that need them [17:17] Moult, that is not supported and will seriously compromise and break your system [17:17] Moult: are you running Karmic or a different release? [17:17] jaunty [17:17] ah [17:17] scunizi: at the moment i have a kubuntu jaunty [17:18] Moult: like bazhang says.. you're almost guaranteed a broken system if you try the karmac kernel on jaunty [17:18] -almost [17:18] kitty13Kitty: no did not work, still get blank screen on attempting to start xorg <.< === kb is now known as Guest59246 [17:18] Moult: it might actually be easier in your case to compile the kernel yourself. There is pretty good documentation available on how to do this for Ubuntu. [17:19] ok - any alternatives then? [17:19] gabkdlly: they recommended against an unpatched kernel? [17:19] Moult: why not download the karmac alternate cd on another machine and use that to upgrade your machine? [17:19] scunizi: how would i do that? [17:20] kitty13Kitty: Any other suggestions <,< [17:20] ? [17:20] check your config what does it say? [17:20] Moult: I believe that the alternate gives "Upgrade" capability from one release to the next.. but of course.. you need another internet connected machine to dl the iso and burn it. [17:21] Moult, help in #ubuntu+1 (but not recommended at all) [17:21] so what you are suggesting is install karmic [17:21] can somone tell me which is the Ubuntu Netbook Remix support channel? [17:21] kitty13Kitty: its completely "blank"(read: everything set to configure and default), with the excetion of 1 line under "Device" that is [17:21] djdarkman, not sure if there is one, just ask here [17:21] bazhang: is karmic +1 for support? [17:22] scunizi, yep [17:22] "UseFBDdeb" "true" [17:22] what machine are you using? [17:22] scunizi: are you suggesting i install karmic? [17:22] Moult, not recommended,no [17:22] does someone know how can I add the keyboard layout switcher to the UNR desktop? [17:22] (panel) [17:22] Moult: you are free to apply any patch you want, you can always tell grub to boot off a previous kernel if you run into problems. [17:23] Moult: yes.. if you need the kernel but that is frought with issues because of the state of early development for karmic [17:23] are there know problems with the nforce4 chipset? [17:23] djdarkman, not familiar with unr, does right click add to panel not do it? [17:23] bastid_razor, how did you get your terminal transparent. when I do that it only shows my background picture within the transparency and not apps behind the terminal [17:23] Moult: you might want to get comfortable with grub configuration first though, just in case [17:24] scunizi: ok i think i might be better off with another distro then [17:24] bazhang: I get confused.. I've got a laptop w/ hardy, desktop w/intrepid .. haven't gone to jaunty yet and so my mind skips the fact that it is also available [17:24] kitty13Kitty: this little blackbox: http://ts.fujitsu.com/home/products/notebooks/amilo_pa_3553.html [17:24] bazhang: no, I can't add anything to the panel [17:24] scunizi, yes, is confusing to me as well at times [17:24] Moult: maybe.. you haven't really explaned why the new kernel is necessary other than to active internet.. is it just the nic card? [17:24] djdarkman, let me check the forums [17:24] Moult: yes, maybe, check around for hardware compatibility lists that meat your needs [17:25] scunizi: yes just to get internet [17:25] Moult: perhaps one of the BSDs ? [17:25] pastebin your lspci [17:25] gabkdlly: not going into bsd no thanks [17:25] I googled for it but didn't find any answere [17:26] Moult: what's so unique about your nic card? see now everyone wants to help.. getting your nic to work shouldn't really involve a new kernel (you'd think anyway) [17:26] can anyone help me figure out why when I try to add a Auth Key in the repo add screen, it crashes that dialog box. What log would I look at? [17:26] kitty13Kitty: ethernet controller attansic technology corp device 1063 (rev c0) [17:26] scunizi: ^ card [17:26] del_diablo, pastebin your lspci and such [17:27] djdarkman, you are wanting to edit the 'tabs' ? [17:27] scunizi: what's so unique? i don't know - it's a brand new laptop [17:27] kitty13Kitty: i wish i could <.<, i got it infront on me with no gui [17:27] djdarkman, or the menu items [17:27] ok, is it on the internet [17:27] kitty13Kitty: what exactly you want to know? [17:27] kitty13Kitty: nope <-< [17:28] scunizi: from what i've found out, it needs a atl1c driver for it to work, only currently available in newer kernels [17:28] awww, can it be? [17:28] it could [17:28] cause you can use the pastebinit cli tool to pastebinit [17:28] Hey People! Im trying to tune down my notebook so the fan keeps quiet. I have done this now: "powernowd -m 2 -v". I hope that keeps the cpu a bit more cool. But the fan still comes up from time to time. Any ideas? [17:28] g-e live with it? [17:28] djdarkman, tabs or menu [17:28] bazhang: I want to add the keyboard layout switching applet to the panel so that I can switch keyboard layouts [17:28] Moult: this is mentioning older releases but it might give you some direction.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/77725 [17:29] djdarkman, seems alacarte can do that [17:29] bazhang: who/what is that and how? [17:29] kitty13Kitty: there it is [17:29] there it is what? [17:29] http://www.tuxradar.com/content/ubuntu-netbook-remix-904-hands djdarkman [17:29] !info alacarte | djdarkman [17:29] djdarkman: alacarte (source: alacarte): easy GNOME menu editing tool. In component main, is optional. Version 0.11.10-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 55 kB, installed size 1240 kB [17:29] kitty13Kitty: on the web [17:30] yay, the web is mighty wide, wanna point me in the right direction? [17:30] djdarkman, or just put in favorites, either way [17:30] Moult: the L2 drivers seem to be supported. check this http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man4/ae.4freebsd.html [17:30] I figured it out, i hcan't do that when I have a blank cd or dvd in the drive. Weird bug filed here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6473309 [17:31] kitty13Kitty: it is connected with cable and got a IP, i understand its likely its going to be lspci + piping to the pastebin tool [17:31] yeah [17:31] kitty13Kitty: but how <.< [17:31] I'd like to back up /home to DVDs. Would tar be adequate? [17:31] apt-get install pastebinit [17:31] Moult: Here's a patch.. maybe what you need. http://osdir.com/ml/linux.ubuntu.devel.kernel.general/2007-09/msg00067.html [17:31] then pastebinit --help [17:32] command | pastebinit del_diablo [17:32] ty [17:32] then give us the url del_diablo [17:32] bazhang: you missunderstood me, I want to put an applet on the panel, not in the menu [17:32] scunizi: clicking the patch gives null [17:33] pastebin.com/f247188ef [17:33] djdarkman, no idea then. sorry not to be more helpful [17:33] www.pastebin.com/f247188ef [17:33] Moult: right click "save as" .. it's a .txt file .. open and look at it [17:34] if you know what you're looking at.. I don't [17:34] Is there a way to send something through ssh that has a limit i.e. i wish to send a file but only 10GB of it and once it reaches that size it should stop sending? [17:34] scunizi: no, it's a page not found [17:34] Pirate_Hunter: split the file beforehand [17:35] thats alot of stuff, and i see two video controllers listed? [17:35] kitty13Kitty: correct [17:35] scunizi: try clicking it - you will not get the file [17:36] how can you kill a process if kill isn't doing it? [17:36] i tried kill pid [17:36] FiremanEd: killall -9 name_of_process [17:36] Moult: I was able to download it.. but looking at it, it appears to be html code with a note at the top stating that the page is AWOL [17:36] scunizi: yes, that is basically downloading the page not found page [17:36] Moult: the process is still hanging around [17:37] FiremanEd: try pkill [17:37] erUSUL, i know i could do that but isn't there a way to just do it without having to split the files manually? [17:37] Moult: pkill pid? [17:37] still there === Francky is now known as Zoc[FR] [17:37] Moult: obviously this has been an issue for some time... since the 6.10 release.. I would think that there would be something out there to activate that nic. google seems to have tons of hits.. maybe a launchpad PPA [17:38] hi guys, what irc client do you recommend? [17:38] Manny-Calavera: x-chat.. don't get the x-chat-gnome, get regular x-chat [17:38] Manny-Calavera, xchat [17:38] Manny-Calavera: iirc it comes stock with ubuntu === clive is now known as Guest73995 [17:38] Manny-Calavera, mirc [17:38] scunizi: what keywords are you looking for? [17:39] Manny-Calavera: if not, just use synaptic :) [17:39] why is firefox 3.0 still the newest version in the repros? 3.5 is out for over a week, isn't it? [17:39] FiReSTaRT: no xchat gnome? ok :) [17:39] !ff35 | Neremor [17:39] Neremor: 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 [17:39] Manny-Calavera: i think it lacks certain features and gives you absolutely zero advantages [17:40] i love getting phone calls [17:40] any other ideas to kill a process that refuses to die? kill pid, kill -9 pid, pkill -9 pid, killall -9 processname didn't work [17:40] morning everyone [17:40] kitty13Kitty: any clues? [17:40] FiReSTaRT: so the regular x-chat is the way to go, right? i'm new to Ubuntu. installed it this week for the first time. im still learning :) [17:40] Moult: attansic ubuntu .. I'm looking here now.. https://launchpad.net/+search?field.text=attansic [17:40] Manny-Calavera : then just use the one thats with pidgin [17:41] i am looking for some help. i'm really new to linux/ubuntu, and i'm having some hardware problems with my hp g60 104ca [17:41] umm not really, did you get my comment about 2 display adapters? [17:41] mostly with the keyboard and screen resolution === joshthecoder_afk is now known as joshthecoder [17:41] BromaxSux: i tried using it, but i didn't like it. [17:41] Manny-Calavera: exactly :) go with it and you're golden... you can also use kvirc (but u gotta install a bunch of kde crap along with it and lots of people dont like the way it looks) and there's the chatzilla plugin for firefox [17:41] * FiReSTaRT personally using xchat [17:42] kitty13Kitty: i did, there is the vga out + 2 GPUs(which is not running in dualmodus) + the hdmi out [17:42] kitty13Kitty: and its a laptop [17:42] FiReSTaRT: i don't like chatzilla. don't know why, never got used to it. and i prefer to have a stand alone client :) [17:42] so which one interfaces to the screen in the computer? [17:42] FiReSTaRT, Manny-Calavera: and many other clients. with the most powerful actually - irrsi. But.. [17:42] !best [17:42] Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task.

[17:43] kitty13Kittie: its suppose to be 0 [17:43] kitty13Kittie: display 0 [17:43] Manny-Calavera: in that case xchat is the way to go.. might not be able to see pretty colors but it does the trick and the UI is fairly neat :) === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo [17:43] my screen's native resolution is 1366x768, but i can't set it to anything higher than 920X540 [17:44] FiReSTaRT: i don't care about pretty colors :D i just want a good and robust piece of software [17:44] Manny-Calavera: what about a cli IRC client? :P === ineiros_ is now known as ineiros [17:44] Manny-Calavera: xchat will do the trick [17:45] kitty13Kittie: which is the interal one [17:45] does anyone have any advice? [17:45] del_diablo: never tried one, and i'm still intimidated by cli apps :P [17:45] have to read some good tutorials first [17:45] del_diablo, can you ssh into the laptop from your other computer, and launch gdm and get some of the logs from it? [17:45] kitty13Kittie: got xdm [17:45] whatever [17:45] it'll work [17:46] * kitty13Kittie kicks kitty13kitty and wonders how long it takes to time out damn it anyways [17:46] Moult: maybe .. just maybe..if you have another old nic you can put in the machine do that and then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade .. and hopefully that will pull in the driver.. [17:46] scunizi: no other nic sorry [17:48] Moult: you always may remove your hd put it in usb case and get deb s you need somewhere else [17:48] btw guys, sorry to bother you, but tell me of a good rss agregator [17:48] brb [17:48] ohir: i'm not sure you entirely understand the situation [17:48] !best | Manny-Calavera [17:48] Manny-Calavera: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task.

I assume you need update machine with no net connection [17:50] gabkdlly: gonna try it. i listen/watch a lot of podcasts. thank you very much [17:50] ohir: at the moment i'm trying to get online. ignore the updating for now === papul_ is now known as papul [17:50] Manny-Calavera: then miro is also worth a look [17:50] ohir: Moult is on Jaunty with no support in the kernel for his attansic nic.. we're trying to figure out how to get it and install it.. but having problems locating it. [17:51] ohir: the support might be in the updates but alas .. you can't update without an internet connection.. and aptoncd would be useless in this case. [17:51] Moult: sounds like kernel recompiling on that machine. Possibly bringing in some old nic module === root is now known as Guest49824 [17:52] ohir: it is in the karmac kernel but he shouldn't go there. [17:52] any clues on the eth0 wired adapter not working on 9.04 ? have hp pavillion and it worked b4 the upgrade [17:52] ohir: actually modprobe would work if the driver was avaible.. at least according to what I've read so far. [17:52] scunizi: but he certainly cant try to patch jaunty kernel tree with module from karmic [17:53] ohir: can't or can ? [17:53] can [17:53] oops [17:53] ohir: that's beyond my abilities.. I'm not sure if he wants to go there ..but if you know how and he's willing.. go for it. [17:54] god i hate ssh <.< [17:54] Moult: I assume you have other means to get files on this machine (cd/usb/whatever)? [17:54] del_diablo: why? [17:54] ohir: yes [17:54] no easy way to setup for simple tasks <.< [17:54] hi [17:54] del_diablo: what do you want to do? [17:54] Moult: do you know which module you need? [17:55] i need to get a log over to this computer, i got ssh on my other(ubuntu one) [17:55] installed openssh client for windows [17:55] act [17:55] pastebinit! [17:55] ohir: one opensuse guy somehow found online it was atl1c, but i'm running the 2.6.30-r10 kernel on my machine right now and i can't find that. so now i'm not too sure [17:55] cat whatever > pastebinit! [17:55] del_diablo: scp should do it [17:55] places->computer crashes nautilus and makes the desktop icons disappear. is this a know problem? [17:55] ? [17:56] it crashes when i start xdm [17:56] del_diablo: putty will do ssh on this end. If you want to transfer the from ubuntu to windows look for winscp [17:56] i'm looking for your /var/log/Xorg.whatever log that is refered to when you do a ps aux | grep xdm [17:56] and i got /var and /tmp in tmpfs(ram) [17:56] how do i add a dock? [17:56] Hello. Do you know of any existing efforts to create ubuntu build environment under OSX? [17:56] as in osx [17:56] Moult: if you do, you need to ask uncle google or other search engine, what the net knows about backporting this module to 2.5.24 line [17:57] del_diablo: you're trying to start a graphical environment in ssh? you need to read more on how that works.. better to learn the cli commands to get things done.. screen helps too. [17:57] http://pastebin.com/f7b68e2bb [17:57] for kittty [17:57] Moult: I assume its new nic, not ancient one [17:57] thats not exactly what i wanted [17:57] but close [17:58] papul, are you on the water? [17:58] ohir: it's been around for some time.. launchpad is riddled with bug reports [17:58] ohir: yes [17:58] scunizi: i would, if i actually got any use for it. I do not at the moment <.< [17:58] what command are you going to use to invoke your graphical user interface ? [17:58] ohir: probably since 6.10 [17:58] Moult: /var/log/dmesg should hint you about how it is seen by kernel now [17:58] either: xdm, xinit, startx === chl_ is now known as chrislea [17:59] all 3 of em gives the same problem <,< [17:59] you got your ssh axs into the other box, start up x, then ps aux | and grep for whichever one you used, and see if it has a log file in the command line for x [17:59] i know [17:59] we're getting the log file [17:59] ohir: it is not seen. because there is no support. [17:59] root 2330 0.0 0.6 3504 988 ? S 21:40 0:00 xinit /etc/gdm/failsafeXinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf [17:59] is what mine says when i run gdm [17:59] del_diablo: with ssh you have to set the environment.. you cant just ssh into the box cold without any other peramiters and expect x to run [18:00] and in my xorg.conf it is telling me that hald is not running and it can't detect anything because it isn't running === ix335 is now known as ix [18:01] Moult: if its old one but was taken because of bugs, odds are that it still is in kernel source tree and can be simply compiled in [18:01] kitty21: how do i ssh into it? the documentation is standard level: a complete mess.' [18:01] apt-get install ssh [18:01] it'll install the openssh client and server [18:01] did do tyhat [18:02] ohir: i'm sorry -what are you trying to say [18:02] you can then download a program like "putty" and ssh into the computer [18:02] www.google.com and search for putty.exe and it'll be like the first link there [18:02] Moult: but if its so buggy it was blacklisted, I would suggest buying usb nic [18:02] I know how to see how much free ram memory I have installed on my computer but I am having problems seeing what type of RAM memory I have installed on my PC. Anybody can help there? [18:02] ohir: what are you saying [18:02] Hi, my CD has got stuck in the tray (part of the problem is that it also refuses to get mounted). Is this a normal issue? I also in desperation tried 'sudo umount /media/cdromX', but as usual nothing good came out of me trying to use the Console :) [18:02] del_diablo: there's all kinds of how to's on the net .. google ssh remote x [18:02] Which app for managing my Ipod - Amarok or Banshee or something else? [18:02] Moult: ever compiled kernel yourself? [18:03] hi :) what's a good 3gp > avi or 3gp > mpeg converter that i can install on my ubuntu box via synaptic package manager? [18:03] dmesg shows eth0 correctly identified, then later shows link not ready. ? [18:03] !ipod | Phantazus [18:03] Phantazus: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod [18:03] scunizi i'm helping him thanks for quoting google [18:03] kitty21: ok, got putty inn === tonii_ is now known as tonii [18:03] how can I feed a list of files to the rm command? [18:03] kitty21: go for it.. [18:03] laughzilla, ffmpeg, but to convert 3gp you need to compile your own with the libamr libs enabled [18:03] thanks [18:04] deany yes i have ffmpeg , i was wondering if there's something even better ... {aka: easier for dummies who like GUI like me} [18:04] ohir: yes i have compiled a kernel myself [18:04] hmm.. [18:04] are there any gconf gurus around here? [18:04] so del_diablo, when you're into your box over ssh, its just like you're at the console, if you startx, it'll popup on your laptop, it'll freeze like normal, but you can still use the ssh client to kill your xdm or whatever you ran so you can get more information [18:05] Moult: I am saying, that there is a chance that this nic module can be compiled in or compiled for current jaunty kernel, but it needs skill to do so (and skill to know when to give it up) [18:05] kitty21: ...... and how do i set up the ssh? [18:05] laughzilla, winff [18:05] cd /etc/init.d [18:05] ./ssh start [18:05] deany - i know how to use ffmpeg, it's fine, it's just .. i dunno ... i'd prefer to use something that's more visual :) thanks, i'll look into winff ! [18:05] cd init.d [18:05] close :P [18:06] sachael: xargs [18:06] ok [18:06] open putty on your other computer [18:06] Moult: scunizi said this nic has been taken off somewhere at 6.10, so it really was buggy and your odds to get it compiled are small and to have stable connection are tiny [18:06] ohir: not taken off but bug against it since then [18:06] scunizi: i don't think he said that. [18:06] and itll have a "hostname" and "protocol", pop in your other machines ip, and leave it as ssh (22) and hit go [18:06] *bugs [18:07] Moult: so if machine has usb2 or pcmcia I personally would spend a few bucks and use something supported. USB or pcmcia nic. [18:07] ohir: not to be rude but i think you are going the wrong way about this [18:07] oh nevermind everybody, seems I already managed to got it out I see when I look at my irl desktop, must had a blackout or something. Sorry /leaves [18:07] can someone explain to me what i did wrong that noting in my /etc/init.d/ works? everytime i try to start or stop a daemon it just says "Warning: Fake start-stop-daemon called, doing nothing." [18:07] Moult: it also is possible :) errare humanum est [18:08] del_diablo, any luck connecting yet? [18:08] Moult: if you know make menuconfig give it try then and see [18:08] not yet [18:08] difficulties? [18:09] Moult: if module code is not in current tree git co it from vanila kernel repository and try to compile it that way [18:09] kitty21: startting and stopping .. sudo /etc/init.d/ stop/start/restart .. if you're working with ssh at cli on a remote machine "screen" might be your friend but that's another story. [18:09] ohir: ok. are you suggesting i get an unpatched kernel? [18:09] just forgot my hostname' [18:09] scunizi either way, even during startup it is saying that [18:10] Moult: I am suggesting you should patch current jaunty kernel tree with that particular module code [18:10] ifconfig will give you the ip address on the other box [18:10] ohir: oh, and you propose to do that with an unpatched kernel, or nonexistant buggy patched kernel? either way doesn't sound good [18:11] Moult: you may try to use vanila kernel with jaunty, but no one guarantee it will work (esp hal subsystem) [18:11] k [18:11] hi! In Jaunty, what's the key shortcut in Totem for adjust the window to the video? [18:11] Moult: I asked if you know about the ways kernel is build. You said yes and I was basing on it. [18:11] ok' [18:11] got it running' [18:12] it was /var/ where`? [18:12] Moult: I said _current_your_distro_kernel_+nic_module_from_somewhere_else [18:12] ohir: yes, and like you said doing it off a vanilla kernel is not a good idea [18:12] what did you use to start x? [18:12] xmd [18:12] xdm* [18:12] ps aux | grep xdm [18:13] you see a line with -logfile /var/log/.... [18:13] delly 3231 0.0 0.0 3340 780 pts/0 D+ 19:13 0:00 grep xdm [18:13] is 9.04 server edition light on low end machines or should i just grab the minimalist iso? [18:13] grrr, try ps aux | grep xinit [18:13] Pirate_Hunter: 8.04.2 is recommended for servers. LTS for servers is recommended [18:14] Pirate_Hunter: yes.. it's light.. 8.04 is supported for 5 years ..9.04 18 months [18:14] Pirate_Hunter: all CD come with an option to install a command line system, as far as I know [18:14] delly 3235 0.0 0.0 3340 792 pts/0 R+ 19:14 0:00 grep xinit [18:14] Moult: you need to get current jaunty kernel sources and patch it with your out_of_jaunty_kernel_module (from Linus repositories supposedly). Then compile. Then - if it will compile - boot it and see if all these bug reports were sincere. [18:14] Pirate_Hunter: server edition will not run smooth for desktop use. [18:14] ps aux | grep /usr/bin/X [18:14] we'll narrow it down yet! [18:15] magnetron: you can always throw the desktop kernel on it.. if you're not building a production machine [18:15] delly 3241 0.0 0.0 3340 800 pts/0 R+ 19:15 0:00 grep /usr/bin/X [18:15] Moult: it is doable but needs advanced knowledge how to do it and how to do it right. You either can learn or you can get another nic. That is what I have said so far. [18:15] ok lies there has to be more then one line [18:15] scunizi: he was comparing ubuntu-minimal to the server version [18:16] does k9copy make the copy region free by default? [18:16] you did start up xdm right? [18:16] xdm( [18:16] yupp [18:16] magnetron: i dont mind not going to use desktop feature, however afetr trying the minimal iso on a different machine i noticed too many things were missing and that caused a lot of problems [18:16] magnetron: k [18:16] and you get the nice warning message ? [18:16] not in ssh [18:16] Pirate_Hunter: "missing"? [18:16] well check your /var/log [18:17] and look for Xorg.0 [18:17] and start reading it from the top [18:17] hi, someone can help me with an usb wireless card (chip realtek 8187L)... i i'm unable to get it working... [18:18] sebsebseb, scunizi, gabkdlly yeah thanks saw the lts wasn't sure if i should get that one still will try it out even knowing 9.04 desktop edition seems to run smoothly (that is why i chose it as a server option) === lojack is now known as lojak [18:19] Pirate_Hunter: depends do you want a desktop or a server? if you get the server and add the desktop bits then support is only 3 years [18:19] magnetron, eeerh yup having to download packages that should be common [18:19] hello! [18:19] snikker, look here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1159526 [18:19] scunizi, nah for the machine im going to be working on im going to use the server edition since i need it as a server [18:19] k [18:20] Pirate_Hunter: you don't really seem to know what you are looking for [18:20] before i forget is there a way to host my sites through my isp even if i dont have a static ip? [18:20] hi, I recently installed the newest version of ubuntu, and in the system monitor it shows the cpu at a consistant 100%, but it doesnt seem like any of the listed processes are causing it, anyone have any clue why? [18:20] magnetron, i do im just a confusing person (which is not a good thing) [18:20] I am not a ubuntu user, but I want to ask this on the biggest channel of the network, because on my distro channel noone knew the awnser: There are a way to unblock NTFS without booting windows? (my windows don't boot anymore, but my in-development stuff is on NTFS parts...) [18:20] snikker, does this connect but you cant browse?? [18:21] Pirate_Hunter: dyndns.com I believe.. and a router.. and setting the incoming port to something other than 80 [18:21] coz_: but i've got rtl8187L, not rtl8187se. it's the same? [18:21] scunizi, oh ok will check it out now before i forget [18:21] I am trying to mount a samba share with mount.cifs. The directory I am using for the mount has 770 permissions. When I mount the share would like there permissions to apply to sub directories. Unfortunately I get 755. Any ideas how to get this working? [18:21] is there a way to reduce the sensitivity of the synaptic touchpad? i have a lot of random touchpad clicks when typing on my keyboard :/ [18:21] snikker, probably no t hold on [18:21] Speeder: boot up ubuntu live and mount your ntfs partition [18:21] realtek rtl8139 not working in jaunty, worked in previous. any ideas? (wired adapter) [18:21] Pirate_Hunter: your computer doesn't run slower just because you install more packages. either you need a package or you don't. [18:22] ohir: ubuntu live has software to mount ntfs??? [18:22] http://pastebay.com/27394 [18:22] I mean, mounst badly dismounted ntfs [18:22] Speeder: likely it will get automounted. Then copy your stuff to usb or other partition [18:22] Hi there, I am trying to install the gstreamer bad plugins but I get this error: libgmyth0 but it is not installable [18:22] Speeder: since 7.04 afair [18:22] the xorg listing is far too long, and i got no I similar key on the keyboard z.z' [18:22] coz_: btw i'm unable to load iwlan0... io've probed rtl8187 module, but nothing to do... [18:22] ohir: what is the name of the ntfs mount that ignore ntfs lock? [18:23] ghostofaphoenix, do sudo apt-get update and try again [18:23] I will see if I can install it on fedora (my current distro) [18:23] thank I will [18:23] anyone up for a samba question? [18:23] snikker, ok check here as well http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1126401 I am not really skilled at wireless set up but googling has brought up some interesting posts [18:23] Speeder: don't know.

[18:25] ohir: I don't have a place to burn the image, also I have no disk, and also I need to downlaod it :P [18:25] I have tried file_mask=0770 and dir_mask=0770 but they do not change anything [18:25] Speeder: this doesn't help: http://www.fedorafaq.org/#ntfs ?? [18:25] scunizi: humm... I wonder how dangerous it is [18:25] stovicek: my problem is that the ntfs drive is locked because windows bsoded [18:25] Speeder: you also has no ntfs support on that machine it seems, so whatever [18:25] coz_: nothing... [18:26] stovicek: so the regular way to mount ntfs don't work [18:26] Speeder: depends.. booting into windows to fix may be less risky [18:26] /etc/init.d/ssh statt .. * Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd ..

(wired adapter) [18:26] and the damn thing won't run any of the daemons from the init.d folder [18:27] so nothing works right [18:27] del_diablo, you wannt try "ps aux | grep hal" [18:27] Speeder: man mount.ntfs [18:27] and see if your hardware abstraction layer daemon is running? [18:27] Speeder: then you only have one option .. try it.. via live cd or with your distro.. I don't know the howto specifics to do it.. but someone will or google. [18:27] sppeder,try using the force option on your mount command [18:27] Speeder: you should still be able to read the data if bsods. you sure the hard drive isn't corrupted? === blubloblu_ is now known as blubloblu [18:27] Speeder: on your system as ubuntu's may be way ahead of what you have there === harjot is now known as harjot1 === harjot1 is now known as harjot === harjot is now known as harjot2 === Budz is now known as Guest99650 [18:28] Speeder: yep, if even old ntfsfs won't mount ro, its suspicious === harjot2 is now known as harjot [18:28] quit [18:28] exit [18:28] delly 3381 0.0 0.0 3340 792 pts/0 R+ 19:28 0:00 grep hal [18:29] so its not, that your problem [18:29] can you start it from the /etc/init.d/ directory ?

I am using it now :P People on ##windows think that I got a virus (a anti-spyware popped and I stupidly clicked scan... but the software that it imitated don't pops up like that...)

[18:36] ohir: I am tring to figure where are my partition :/ [18:36] i guess you got xorg up running in contrast === sale_ is now known as sale [18:36] no its my laptop [18:36] I don't remember how to do it, too many time using dolphin with automount [18:36] so cli only and no gui?

[18:39] thanks [18:39] Speeder: then manually mount it with force [18:39] mine dont :( [18:39] ohir: unless his system is still using hdaX type references. [18:39] just 1 last question: How do i force xorg to only use 1 video card? Aka forcing it onyo that 1, and how do i detect what is needed to put in? [18:39] first probe it and see what probe says is wrong [18:40] ohir: probe sayas unclean filesystem [18:40] :/ [18:40] Speeder: so force it ro [18:40] ohir: ro will not corrupt it? [18:41] I wonder why not ro will corrupt it :/ [18:41] Speeder: ro ReadOnly [18:41] Speeder: Read, Only == No Writes Allowed [18:41] join #g8 [18:41] erm... [18:42] del_diablo by default you only have it use one at a time, you have to go in and add separate adapters to go dual head [18:42] * Speeder will play with ntfs commands that show when he write ntfs and press tab twice [18:42] i don't think there was a good cli/gui for dualhead setup you pretty much have to edit the config by hand [18:42] Speeder: better play with man command. Precisely: man -k ntfs [18:42] ohir: yes :P [18:42] I wonder what ntfsfix do [18:42] 1, 2, 4 read write execute respectively [18:43] ntfsfix just flags the ntfs filesystem as beeing cleanly unmounted.. it dosent really 'fix' anything - from whate ive read. [18:43] Dr_Willis: no it does not [18:43] Speeder: no linux ntfs* command can restore your windoze. It would be anticompetitive. [18:43] only as you say.. cleanly unmounted or in need of a chkdsk [18:44] ohir: I don't want to restore windows :P [18:44] Speeder: except an ancient one, namely dd command :> [18:44] I think it can perform a chkdsk not sure [18:44] ohir: I want to continue coding my allegro game :P [18:44] kitty21, i do know. But i think that forcing 1 of them to work instead of random erros that might get in could owrk [18:44] I am making a multiplatform game, so I made it on a way that I can compile it on both windows and linux without doing anything but changing target on codeblocks [18:44] really cool :) [18:44] well your problem is similar to mine [18:44] you're hald isn't running [18:44] kitty21: setting the config is not a problem, only if i get a way to input it [18:44] Hi, I keep getting this error after I log in The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:Deskbar_Applet". Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration? I have googled this and found loads of pages with this error and even a workaround but I still dont understand what the error means and whether the workaround is appropriate to my system. I have just done a fresh install of Ubuntu Studio 8.04 and installed all t [18:44] meaning x won't autodetect any adapters [18:45] and your keyboard/mouse won't work either [18:45] ohir: I will test ntfs commands on C: [18:45] it if fucks it, there are no problem anyway (I don't put data on C:... only windows itself, that is fucked anyway) [18:45] kitty21, but what caised it`? [18:45] ??? [18:45] Speeder: you have been given enough knowledge to mount your ntfs partition read only, so go for your sources. And then use C::B on linux. It works here native. [18:46] kitty21: it worked before, and last time this happend i managed to fix it [18:46] JonathanEllis: the error simply means that one of the applets you had on one of the panels cannot be loaded any more. If you choose to delete it that shouldn't hurt anything as that applet couldn't load anyway [18:46] restart *shrug* [18:46] what can affect audio out on ubuntu ( which config files) ? [18:46] ohir: I know that it works native >.< [18:46] dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg should auto setup your config file [18:46] th0r: Thanks. I guess this may be because I have re-mounted my home partition from a previous install [18:46] but hald isn't giving it all the info it needs [18:46] ohir: it just that I was using the folder on NTFS for both windows and linux work :P [18:47] Need some help with install 9.04, the cd gets to the main menu, but selecting any option results in "Kernel Panic: not syncing" [18:47] ohir ntfsfix seemly is awesome [18:47] I ran it on C: and now it mounts corretly, and seemly nothing got corrupted [18:47] Is there any feasible way to stream over NFS/OpenVPN a 480p video on a consumer-grade comcast line withou tthe video stuttering? [18:47] even with write enabled [18:47] JonathanEllis: quite possibly. You probably had an applet on a previous panel that is installed now [18:47] I wonder how to check if it got corrupted or not [18:47] Speeder: use windoze under virtualbox, better and will give you many test scenarios [18:47] ok I was able to get my samba issue solved by disabling the the LinuxExtensions. Does anyone know why linux extensions would be preventing file_mode and dir_mode from working and how to solve it on the server side? [18:47] JonathanEllis: Reinstall it or use Gnome Do instead... I prefer Gonme Do [18:47] xjXternal: how did oyu burn the iso? [18:48] ohir: I can't because I use some really awesomely heavy software on windows that make virtualbox crawl [18:48] Speeder: also you will see if your game have chance on something less than core-eight with eight gig ram [18:48] djXternal: how did you brun the iso?

[18:49] Bah. [18:49] ohir: I wonder why in fact (my game on windows use directdraw, and it don't ever use alpha, it was made to work on really old machines... but on linux it runs slow :( ) [18:49] !ff35 [18:49] Firefox 3.5 Final is currently being built and tested for Jaunty.

And you use M$ technology which is somewhat 'emulated' on gtk layer on linux [18:51] I don't know [18:51] rakudave: Thanks. I dont think I ever used it. Is it like a gui version of grep?

[18:51] try PCLinuxos and upgrading [18:51] apt-get install blender [18:52] silidan1: ok trying to burn at a lower speed, any other thoughts if that doesnt work?

Then add an item to the appropriate menu [18:52] Hey does anyone know of a program like "sticky windows" on osx or Nubs in windows? [18:53] djXternal: maybe something like raw write would also work not sure tough [18:53] oh it is .. my bad [18:53] melchmon360: clarify what the app does to the channel.

[18:55] mib486: Sorry I dont know anything about ndiswrapper, just how to add an extra icon to the applications menu. How do you usually start it? [18:55] can anyone help me with apache2? [18:55] kitty21: That's the file you edit to modify your sources. What are you specifically trying to do? Also, please ditch the attitude. [18:55] lo, I have a slight problem with Jaunty - I can get sound from to play through my usb headset if it is an mp3 or movie or local file, I can get youtube to play through my totem movie player, but I cannot get any sound to play via my web browser, firefox. I have checked and rechecked the sound preferences.

I have checked and rechecked the sound preferences. I recently installed padevchooser by Magnetron's request but he has stepped away or is unavailable, I have setup a local sound server in [19:11] padevchooser and configured it to what I think is proper since there is no documentation via website.

For other new user accounts however, the graphics support somehow appeared. Today I installed Jaunty from scratch, originally no work out of box. I reinstalled it because of a problem with installing fedora, and it suddenly worked out of box again [19:12] MaYobi, it may be better to uninstall, download the tar and reinstall. [19:12] MaYobi: Yes, because installing Debian packages in Ubuntu always ends so well. [19:12] ttilberg: it's using the generic driver [19:13] melchmon360: be aware though fullfledged compiz needs power graphics card [19:13] vulcar ok, i'l try now, thanks [19:13] flannel: ok, now that i did the apt-get update, now i can't apt-get install ubuntu-desktop... [19:13] scunizi: Which it was doing before as well -- In intrepid when I would switch to the ATI, it was horrible- and dual screen support was terrible. The open driver was perfect, and before allowed advanced graphics on desktop [19:13] ohir, wait, can i do like tabbed windows [19:14] kitty21: Please pastebin the output of : sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [19:14] i need english not russian pls [19:14] melchmon360: miniature tabbed app windows are known as 'shelf effect' afaik [19:14] pidgin problem your help pls [19:14] Actually... I wonder if it has less to do with updating software (as I know support was dropped even more recently) -- and wonder if it has to do with enabling dual screen and removing mirror~ ?

I didn't partition, I just put ubuntu on the whole thing, and it turns out I have to switch back to windows. [19:18] ola pesoal [19:18] kitty21: your apt is trying to reach http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu which is incorrect. it should read http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists [19:19] how do i run ndiswrapper? [19:19] "ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.88" doesnt help to ping it from a different PC [19:19] Very interesting. In the past, when the R3XX open driver did work with advanced gfx in Jaunty (before I reinstalled) -- dual screen, without screen mirroring worked great. Apparently however, I am unable now to set it to un-mirror my dual screen setup, and still use advanced effects. Any ideas of how to get more information, or file a bug report (and to where... launchpad?) [19:19] logicalghost: why not load windows in a vm in virtuabox [19:19] logicalghost: insert your windows CD/DVD, and follow instruction [19:19] logicalghost: just install windows over ubuntu delete all the existinging partitions it will overwrite everything [19:19] logicalghost: you'll have the best of both worlds. [19:19] logicalghost: do a backup first, if required [19:19] kitty21: there's an extra /ubuntu/ in the URL which shouldn't be there. Do you have "ports.ubuntu.com jaunty" or "ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jaunty"? [19:19] ohir, shelf affect?

[19:20] p0v3rty: View-Userlist? [19:20] melchmon360: go to compiz settings manager (cmms on console or thru the administration menu) and fiddle [19:20] kitty21: Oh, then that's my fault. I thought I fixed that. Let me get you a new pastebin. [19:20] macondo: type "eject" in to the command line [19:20] It's not actually a windows disk, I think it's set to reinstall the factory image, which I would assume means that I have to reformat the hard drive first? === nicolas_ is now known as Guest17657 [19:21] marcondo: you can try in nautilus, your CD drive should have a little ^ next to it. You can try clicking that [19:21] sorry i feel like a retard now heh [19:21] logicalghost: you have to delete the partitions first [19:21] macondo: Physically overrides electronical means. [19:21] kitty21: http://paste.ubuntu.com/210497/ Use that instead. [19:21] macondo: or do what seeker said lol [19:21] MoltenBobcat: How? [19:21] logicalghost: yes that would be true.. but if you boot directly to that cd it should give you the option of deleting partitions.. do that [19:21] Hmm, it just doesn't eject. Maybe it's broken. [19:21] macondo: try sudo unount -l /dev/cdrom [19:21] logicalghost: the windows installer allows you to do it... if you have some type of recovery disk you may not be able to [19:21] scunizi: It's not giving me that option. [19:22] macondo: make sure thats "unmount" not "unount" :) [19:22] if thats the case I'd suggest downloading a copy of gparted === irobonaki is now known as funkyHat [19:22] Yes, I know.

[19:22] logicalghost: then you'll have to use your ubuntu live cd and the partition manager on it to delete the partitions.. then the win installer will work [19:22] logicalghost: so do you have any way to get windows back onto this machine? [19:22] logicalghost: oh you should listen to scunizi that's a easier option [19:22] macondo: correction: try sudo umount -l /dev/cdrom [19:22] scunizi: How do I do that? [19:23] logicalghost: put the live cd in the cdrom and boot to it.. once the desktop is up go to system>Admin>Partition Editor.. from there you can delete all the partitions. [19:24] scunizi: So "Try Ubuntu Without Making Changes to your System" is booting from the CD? [19:24] Hmm it must be broken. The cd drive just doesn't open. [19:24] After re-installing Ubuntu 9.04, Swap partition wasn't mounted, and when I try to mount it, I receive the following: http://paste.ubuntu.com/210500/ [19:25] i need help about ip [19:25] macondo use a needle for manual cd eject;) [19:25] logicalghost: yes [19:25] scunizi: Thank you, I will try that [19:25] raddar: do I have to insert it in the small hole? [19:25] I am using Ubuntu 8.04 on a Dell Inspiron 530. My problem is that boot sequence is flaky. That is, SOMETIMES, it boots up fine, other times, I get to the Ubuntu orange bar screen and the orange bar goes back and forth forever. What is it looking for and not finding, and how can I fix this? [19:25] sorry im new in ubuntu. how can i know what ip i have on my lan [19:25] ? [19:25] macondo yes [19:25] macondo: Or a paperclip [19:25] pranka if you're sure thats your swap partition, then go ahead and mkswap /dev/sda5 and then mount it [19:25] small needle is fine [19:26] Krenari1: open a terminal and type 'ifconfig' [19:26] logicalghost: you'll have two partitions to delete.. or should anyway [19:26] kitty21: thanks [19:26] Pranka: Try just 'swapon -a' (check to see if it's in your fstab, if not, you need to add it) [19:26] Flannel: I have tried with the UUID, then replaced it with /dev/sda5. Still no luck [19:27] th0r: thnx [19:27] I will go by kitty21's advice and mkswap [19:27] Ah cool. The drive is plain dead. [19:27] I am using Ubuntu 8.04 on a Dell Inspiron 530. My problem is that boot sequence is flaky. That is, SOMETIMES, it boots up fine, other times, I get to the Ubuntu orange bar screen and the orange bar goes back and forth forever. What is it looking for and not finding, and how can I fix this? [19:27] But I managed to extract the precious cd. [19:27] you'll still have to check if its in fstab for it to be auto activated, but yeah if its not a swap partition then you'll be spinning wheels either way :P [19:28] stevecoh1: might be a drive going bad [19:28] th0r: im trying to make my pc with dynamic DNS, but i cant forward ports from my rooter to my pc. how can i see what port is apatch using [19:28] ? [19:28] I don't believe so. It has been this way ever since I got it. [19:28] Krenari1, apache normally uses 80... but you can set it to whatever you want [19:28] macondo good for you [19:28] Krenari1: apache uses port 80 by default.. most ISP's block port 80 [19:28] Krenari1: if you are talking about apache, about a webserver, it is port 80 [19:29] Good for me! [19:29] I've checked the drive and it never complains. [19:29] kitty21: mkswap did work, thank you for your help [19:29] pranka, make sure its in fstab [19:29] If it isn't the drive, can it be something else? [19:29] How can i change default port to 8080 [19:29] so it gets auto activated on boot [19:29] macondo always look at the bright side:) [19:29] any decent software for ripping audio tracks out of avi's, running them though filters, then combining them again? maybe not 1 program to do all... [19:29] raddar: it burns my eyes! [19:30] scunizi: if the ISP blocked port 80, you couldn't browse the web [19:30] kitty21: i can view it in fstab [19:30] Krenari1: the Listen directive. [19:30] ok [19:30] Is there a diagnostic tool I could use to know what's happening to the drive? My burning application won't recognize it. [19:30] thanks again [19:30] hey, does anyone have any idea why a few custom compiz plugins I installed uncheck themselves about a second after I check them? They otherwise seem to work; I can edit their settings and ccsm will warn me of conflicts... [19:30] th0r: on the inbound side [19:31] Again, I don't think there is anything wrong with the drive. What else could cause the flaky booting. Anything? [19:31] th0r: most ISP block the inbound side so you CAN'T run a server. It's typically against their use policy [19:32] scunizi: I have run a server at home a number of times, and never run into that. Course, things are getting weirder by the day on the net [19:32] Is there any way to make the Ubuntu boot sequence less opaque? That is, see what's behind the orange bars? [19:32] Does anyone know where I could find something that allows me to tab any windows I have open? There is a program for this on mac called "sticky windows" [19:32] th0r: it really depends on your isp.. business line or access is never blocked .. home use is.. at least in the USA [19:32] stevecoh1, dmesg will show some boot up info [19:32] melchmon360: What do you mean by "tab"? [19:33] Krenari1: a suggestion, don't change apache, leave it on port 80. Set the wifi router (or whatever router you have) to forward an outside port to port 80 (say port 12345 to port 80) then access your webpage with http://hostname:12345 [19:33] jjnw: after a failed boot followed by a successful one? [19:33] Surlent777, if I dragged a windows to the edge of my screen it would minimize to a tab on the edge [19:34] Krenari1: I always use port forwarding for everything, as a security precaution [19:34] stevecoh1, yes. You also have info in the log files /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog [19:34] is there some sort of "verbose" switch you can give to the boot sequence? [19:34] stevecoh1: you could temporarily remove splash from the boot options in grub. that will prevent the system messages from being hidden during boot up. [19:34] Surlent777, like http://www.donelleschi.com/stickywindows/ [19:34] Krenari1: th0r suggestion is a good one and can be implemented along with dyndns.com [19:34] I installed a package using aptitude but cancelled it with Ctrl+C while it was downloading the debs. Now `aptitude install -f` asks me to install that package. How can I mark it as not installalbe? [19:35] stovicek: thanks. Do you know what that switch is? === kompulsa_dot_com is now known as Tetracomm [19:35] melchmon360: That is a strange behavior. I don't think I quite understand, but I know that with Compiz you can of course to traditional minimizing, and you can also group several windows together in one...but as for that docking bit, I have no idea [19:35] do* [19:35] stevecoh1, you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst [19:36] Surlent777, does shelfing work like that? [19:36] thanks jjnw. What edit would I make there? [19:36] melchmon360: Shelfing makes the window different sizes that you can move around. It still updates the window by default as well [19:37] !unr [19:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about unr [19:37] Hello there! [19:37] !netbook [19:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about netbook [19:37] !netbook-remix [19:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about netbook-remix [19:37] stevecoh1, remove the splash and quiet from the end of the line starting kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.x.x [19:37] thanks [19:38] Can anyone tell if there is a way to parse some aspx-page in terminal? [19:38] stevecoh1: during the boot process, hit ESC to get to the kernel list. press E to edit the kernel's boot options. highlight the kernel line press E to edit it. remove splash from the end of the line. press ENTER. press B to continue booting. [19:38] I have an old computer Running Bill Gates Special (XP) If I take the hard drive out and install it as a second hard drive or as an external hard drive, will I be able to access the files on the Disk? [19:38] thanks guys. [19:39] FBLJohn: Should be able to [19:39] stevecoh1, stovicek does it better [19:39] FLJohn: files yes.. run xp that way no [19:39] Surlent777, oh. Well idk what to do then [19:39] hi, just installed unr jaunty. second try i login to gnome only the desktop launches - no panel or metacity loads. newly created users have same issue. this is a fresh install and I even re-installed it. seems as if message bus cannot contact gconf... any hints of how to proceed? [19:39] been a while since I had to do that. I couldn't remember the exact sequence without booting a machine :P [19:39] melchmon360: Sounds like a gimmick anyway. If you really want something like that, just look around on Google I guess [19:39] wiki.ubuntu.com [19:40] how to see ubuntu version?

[19:50] ok so my problem is i want to add a linux radio server using shoutcast with icecast. I'm using ubuntu 8 with webmin/usermin and virtualmin to administer from home. I "accidentally changed" the file permissions on the /usr folder [19:50] cjae: they go as fast as your system will allow [19:50] hey, I am having a problem with ububtu's install in virtualbox, Win 7 host 9.04 desktop and alternate cd's both freeze @ configuring apt > scanning mirror [19:50] cjae: yes im laso interested how to explain why slider of speed and remaining time changes when copying/movin.. [19:50] ThemeSeries: Yikes. Webmin. [19:51] and now sudo does not work all i get is "sudo must be setuid" [19:51] Webmin sucks? [19:51] !webmin | ThemeSeries [19:51] ThemeSeries: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. [19:51] ThemeSeries: Hard. [19:51] Apollo, did you try launching from the command line? [19:51] ohh no webmin is great for what im doing [19:51] webmin did not do anything [19:51] !ebox [19:51] ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server.

I didn't see your response. Prefix it with my nick next time, so it'll be highlighted. And hold on.

[19:52] for the chmod /usr dir? [19:52] Ohh cool thanks [19:52] oops [19:53] so is ebox like webmin. I fell at home with webmin already but is it worth changing the webmin to ebox?

[20:09] deany: you have to do that with each upgrade [20:09] theblue follow the post on that page xapt wrote on 2009-04-08: (permalink) [20:09] normally [20:09] deany: No I never bothered [20:09] The_Cog, so when i told you it stalls at 43%?? well it's been stuck there since then [20:09] theblue if you follow the instructions there, everything should work [20:09] jlebrech: I suggest you post your suggestion in the relevant forum for nautilus. Google nautilus to find where it is. I doubt the developer will see your suggestion here. [20:09] wesley__: that link once more? [20:09] The_Cog, and i have asked in #vbox [20:09] space_cadet, what ubuntu are you using in vbox [20:09] but ... [20:09] deany, 9.04 [20:09] TSMG, I would say yes as you can't make changes like that to a mounted partition [20:09] space_cadet, its a known issue. I had it once [20:09] deany: the old guest additions will typically work.. you have to check what's installed vs what's available to install. [20:09] space_cadet: Sorry I have no ideas then. [20:10] ok All.. I have an odd one here.. I have 2 mice, 2 keyboards, and two monitors.... how do I set my desktop up so each "set" is a different x session (like multiple workstations off of one terminal) I knw it's possible, but im baffled [20:10] hi all. I just installed the 9.04 and can`t see the BROADCOM B43 in the list of propietary drivers. When boot from liveCD, I can see it but cannot install it. Could anybody help me? Plz. [20:10] deany, is there a workaround?? or can i disable networking to fix it? [20:10] i think there should be a recent documents menu for each folder, to see what was accessed thru nautilus in that folder [20:10] deany: When I upgraded my vbox I had to upgrade guest additions to make it work properly. Before that, there was some bizarre behaviour going on. [20:11] space_cadet, dont know how I fixed it, it was ages ago.. I dont think I did anything, just upgraded vbox... [20:11] Tomi-87: if you installed it well in live CD its carried over to the installation, you should be all set [20:11] deany, cause as before, it does it with both the desktop and alternate installs [20:11] !suggestion [20:11] Sorry, I don't know anything about suggestion [20:11] space_cadet, but im using ubuntu [20:11] !feature request [20:11] !sounds [20:11] Sorry, I don't know anything about feature request [20:11] Sorry, I don't know anything about sounds [20:11] !sound [20:11] 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 [20:11] space_cadet, So i dont know in your case. [20:11] deany, yeah.. that's a difference [20:12] space_cadet: I think you can tell it not to sync with any mirrors - not to use the network yet. [20:12] is there a command to default the file permissions in ubuntu? [20:12] hi! how can i undelete a file in a specific folder? i mean ONLY from a specific folder. [20:12] space_cadet, join #vbox they will be able to help more [20:12] The_Cog, well i did notice it does the same thing inside live mode.. when i go to install something, it randomly freezes [20:13] so.. [20:13] it has to be a networking bug [20:13] ? [20:13] gonna try something [20:13] could somebody explain to me what DQS training is? [20:13] i gues its something that has to do with memory [20:13] ok All.. I have an odd one here.. I have 2 mice, 2 keyboards, and two monitors.... how do I set my desktop up so each "set" is a different x session (like multiple workstations off of one terminal) I knw it's possible. [20:14] hi [20:14] jlebrech: OK. Here is where to submit your suggestion for nautilus http://live.gnome.org/Nautilus/Ideas [20:14] !meta ask [20:14] Sorry, I don't know anything about meta ask [20:14] !ask [20:14] 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. :-) [20:14] im asking for an opinion, the suggestion has already been submitted [20:14] gartral: yes, I thik after the installation I would just need to activate it. But actually I cant because the list of drivers is empty when boot from HDD (there are no activated or deactivated drivers shown). [20:15] is there a way to suppress "permission denied" messages for the "find" command? i haven't had any success with the manual. [20:15] gartral: it is.. after googling for hours I found some info a while back. Most hits were for implementation in an educational setting. You might google for linux in schools etc.. might also try Helio's blog or send him an email directly [20:15] binbasti: find /path 2>/dev/null [20:15] jlebrech: for "opinions" please ask in #ubuntu-offtopic [20:15] Tomi-87: ohh.. did you activate it while in the live cd? if so, theres a bug where the driver disappers... I don't know how to fix this issue [20:16] gartral: the edubuntu docs may also have somethign [20:16] ohir: "2>/dev/null" is an option? [20:16] gartral: also thin client references might result in some useful hits [20:16] OmniVision Technologies, Inc. OV519 WebCam, not working on ubuntu 9.04 [20:17] binbasti: its redirection of STDERROR stream (this what says permission denied) [20:17] My mouse pointer is frozen. [20:17] ohir: ah ok. thank you! [20:17] jlebrech: Apparently there is a #nautilus IRC channel on irc.gnome.org. You might get more of a response there [20:18] Weird. [20:18] well, fine... so does it mean I must apply a win-style solution (reinstall)? Well, at least I know that it can be resolved this way. Normally I wouldnt think that It resolves anything when talking about Linux. So thank you so much. [20:19] So undockingmy laptop didn't unfreeze my mouse pointer, but when I went to type to ask for the key combniation to invoke suspend, numlock was on. Turning it off unfroze the ouse. [20:19] gartral: did you find what you are looking for? [20:20] is there a quick way to reset file permissions? [20:20] gartral: if not, here is a (slightly dated) tutorial, for linux, not ubuntu specifically: http://linuxgazette.net/124/smith.html [20:21] Tomi-87, did you check the forums? there is info here about broadcom chips http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1203693&highlight=broadcom+43 [20:21] anyone? [20:21] TSMG: "reset" meaning? [20:21] TSMG: Yes. chmod [20:21] when something fails during install on linux, is it ok to install over the failed install...i.e.e run apt again, or do you need to uninstalled the failed install? [20:21] TSMG There is a quick way to "set" file permissions, reset implies setting them to some previously known set of permissions. [20:21] i need to reset the file permissions for /usr directory [20:22] what would be the file permissions for the /usr dir [20:22] i changed it to 744/755 i think [20:22] cyph00: Generally speaking it's beter (and quite easy) to apt remove and then apt install. [20:22] thaNKS puff [20:22] cyph00: Though I think it shouldn't be dangerous to try to just install again. [20:22] TSMG: 755 usually. [20:22] TSMG: 755, owned by root/root. [20:22] halitech, i was googling for a time, trying to find the driver to download, found some b43 related topics as well, but not those which i would need [20:23] cyph00: Oh, wait,y ou mean apt install failed? apt should have cleaned up after itself. [20:23] ohh so i think i could set it back to that? [20:23] :) [20:23] Tomi-87, do you have a wired connection you can use for now until the wireless is working? [20:23] i did chmod -Rv [20:23] puff....Got a 'tasksel: aptitude failed (128)' when installing LAMP. [20:23] cyph00: Also nore that in some cases if you have messed up the configs in /etc/whatever, apt remove does note remove those, unless you speifically ask it to with the purge option. [20:24] apt-get purge instead of remove? [20:24] Thank You Jassi [20:24] cyph00: Ah, I don't use those meta-packages too much so I'm not sure about that. [20:24] dakarn: Be careful with apt-get purge. [20:24] no, im typing from another computer... and all the pages are supposing that I have the wired connection :( [20:24] русско язычные тут есть?

[20:24] dakarn: apt-get purge makes apt remove any and all files related, like config files,e tc. Apt get remove and then apt get install of a package will leave the config files alone so you can restore the binaries, etc, to a fresh working state wtihout having to redo any configs. [20:25] Jassi: hmm.. I hit a snare... Nvidia GFX card [20:25] ok [20:25] я там уже был [20:25] TSMG: Oh, that sucks.

There is a program for this on mac called "sticky windows" [20:26] !ru | by1 [20:26] TSMG: You'll have to boot into single-user mode and fix the perms on sudo, probbaly.

I try to activate sth on liveCD and it disappears from the system on HDD... :| [20:28] scunizi, yes [20:28] scunizi, yes please refer to the "sticky tabs" link [20:28] Tomi-87, I don't know if a reinstall will help or not (being honest) [20:29] gartral: why does that make a difference? [20:29] melchmon360: I don't know of a program to do that but a quick google search reveals a windows manager that makes use of tabs.. http://xwinman.org/vtwm.php .... [20:29] TSMG: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo [20:29] scunizi, but dom't want to change my window manger. that is always such a hassle [20:29] oh god thanks :):):):):):) [20:30] melchmon360, if you have 2 programs open, does ALT+TAB not change between them for you? [20:30] jussi01: primarily, my xorg.conf is both empty, and nonresponsive to reconfiguration [20:30] halitech: well, sure it didnt made any change on the CD :) or on the hardware :)) so the problem must be in the installed system. At least I hope that... (fixme guys XD ) [20:32] melchmon360: sorry.. best I could do.. looks like there is a request on ubuntu brainstorm [20:32] Tomi-87, guess 1 way to find out is to reinstall [20:32] gartral: are you sure? Ive an nvidia, and using the proprietry drivers under 9.04, adding items to it works. I had to create the base with the nvidia settings app though... [20:32] :) well, thank you. I gonna try it [20:32] bye [20:34] People i cant get my usb headset logitech with ubuntu working... I mean i select it in the sound configuration window and it doesnt work.

[21:02] ruby, idk, probably something wrong w/ x [21:02] Pirate_Hunter: check your bios and see if it's set for a usb keyboard [21:02] Ruby: ok so things went wrong on an upgrade? [21:02] there should be an error log somewhere, but you'd have to google that [21:02] Yeah, it rebooted mid installation [21:02] what are you installing? [21:03] I was installing ubuntu 9.04 [21:03] does anyone know how to use a .bundle file? [21:03] so it never insalled completely?

[21:03] And seb I realized that when it didnt work [21:03] seb? [21:03] And no it did not complete [21:03] Ruby: it's easier to just get hold of your data from Live CD, and do a clean install [21:04] Pirate_Hunter: try a different keyboard to see if it's that? [21:04] ruby, so you have no files saved onto ubuntu, so just reinstall [21:04] I have files saved onto ubuntu [21:04] except this time, don't reboot until it's done [21:04] I was updating 8.10 to 9.04 [21:04] oic [21:04] scunizi, it works in windows on boot through usb but not ubuntu cant be the keyboard, also my other keyboards are all ps2 :( [21:04] then you should just go in w/ the mainenance shell, and ftp all important files to another machine [21:05] then reinstall [21:05] ah uh, How do I ftp [21:05] anyone know where transmission keeps the original torrent files and is it a different place if its xubuntu? [21:05] Ruby: man ftp [21:05] Pirate_Hunter: maybe ubuntu or linux in general just doens't like that keyboard.. what is it?

[21:05] ok I have some problem.. terminall windows.. 2 of them starting every starttime.. on each startup.. [21:06] Ruby: that's ok, just try to read documentation on stuff like ftp [21:06] because usually things like that are under .transmission but I dont see that [21:06] if you're using a machine somewhere else on the wan, you should use scp, Ruby [21:06] Halitech, scunizi, yeah everything else works apparently it just fails if i boot while the keyboard is in the usb otherwise its fine, meh doubt it even knowing its made by labtech [21:07] Ruby: you can also share files Linux to Linux with Samba, or Linux to Windows [21:07] Ruby: over a LAN [21:07] right [21:07] Which documentation should I use for checking on ftp, not sure if I should check 9.04 or 8.10 [21:07] !grub [21:07] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

[21:12] Yes [21:12] Ruby: which isn't that much time to change to recovery mode [21:12] Am I supposed to press something? [21:12] Ruby: esc [21:12] Alright [21:13] the new nv 185.18.14 sure works wonders [21:13] Which kernel version do I go into recovery mode with or does it matter [21:13] Ruby: the one that is available [21:13] Theres three [21:13] Ruby: try the latest one you have, if some issue with that, you can try the other two [21:13] yeah [21:13] thats what I was thinking [21:13] Ruby: if you have several then the first available going from top down [21:14] Alright [21:14] Ruby: are you dual booting with Windows or? [21:14] So now what do I do [21:14] can someone help me with apt, I have a dependencies problem [21:14] No its actually my mothers laptop, you see [21:14] here is the problem : http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=329923 [21:14] Ruby: Ubuntu only on it? [21:14] Yep [21:14] Anyway [21:14] Ruby: ok well if your lucky, it's simple and xorg just needs fixing [21:14] When I was in the text display I ran dpkg [21:15] Ruby: if not your going to need to use the Live CD, to then move your data some where else [21:15] dpkg : handle error linux-image-2.6.28-13-generic (--configure)… [21:15] It seems to of fixed some stuff [21:15] ok, still not getting my powerpc box up and running, need help with getting daemons to run from /etc/init.d [21:15] Alright so how do I fix xorg [21:15] I'm at the recovery menu [21:15] Ruby: when you go into recovery mode from the boot loader, there should be a few options, one should be xfix [21:15] Alright [21:16] Said that xserver-xorg is broken or not fully intialized and then went back [21:16] Ruby: can't do xfix? [21:16] Evidently [21:16] is there any way to get latest ntfs-3g packages on ubuntu 8.04? [21:16] I downloaded Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop edition, but wasn't able to find an option to enable /home directory encryption during installation. I hear when starting the install from the ISO I should add --encrypt-home to the boot command in order for the checkmark box to appear? [21:16] Ruby: did it come up with the options or not? [21:17] kitty_: they don't run from init.d, the scripts reside in init.d but are run by links in rc0.d, rc1.d, etc. depending on what run level you are executing [21:17] Flannel, you there? [21:17] No options it just said xserver was broken or couldnt be intialized [21:17] how to join irc specific channel [21:17] Ruby: ok try the other two kernels, but your probably not going to have much luck with those either [21:17] ponpulla: /join #channelname [21:17] ok th0r, so when i run one it returns "Warning: Fake start-stop-daemon called, doing nothing. [21:17] " === basti2 is now known as basti [21:18] alright what do i there [21:18] ponpulla, what client you use? if xchat then in the first screen, "edit" [21:18] Well in the event that I do have to reinstall what do I do, just ftp? [21:18] y [21:18] hey [21:18] how do i delete a file [21:18] Ruby: By the way if I was you, and had known a few things, I would have stuck with 8.10 on there, untill 9.10 was released, then clean installed that === ring1 is now known as ring0 [21:18] i have a file on my desktop that i want to delete but when i right click i get denied [21:19] You told me this already [21:19] x chat [21:19] how do i do this with the terminal [21:19] Hi, I have a newbie question, what is the best speed to burn a iso to make livecd of ubuntu? [21:19] Ruby: well yeah something like it, but I never got a reply [21:19] Broken or not fully installed [21:19] Patrickaaaa: rm is the command [21:19] rm /path/to/filename.ext [21:19] dsfsdgs [21:19] kind sir, thank you [21:19] ArchLinux_Sucks: as slow as possible [21:19] scunizi: thank you, that is what i thought. may i ask why? [21:20] Patrickaaaa: If it is a directory remember to have the -r flag [21:20] kitty_: sounds like you have a dummy script. Check the contents of the script you are trying to run (open a terminal and type 'less /etc/init.d/scriptname' and see if it really contains code [21:20] kitty_: it might also be that the script you are trying to execute is trying to call another script that isn't there...or is a dummy file [21:20] ponpulla, then in the first screen, before "connect", "edit" and add to channels to join [21:20] how hard would it be to use the wireless driver I am using right now with Ubuntu 9.04, and get it to work with nUbuntu? [21:20] ArchLinux_Sucks: just seems to work best that way. [21:20] Yeah they all don't work [21:20] ok [21:20] want me to pastebin one of the scripts, cause they look pretty normal to me [21:20] Ruby: after all this, 9.04 probably realy won't feel worth it, once your set up with it. anyway any luck with the other kernels? [21:20] yes its a directory [21:20] ArchLinux_Sucks: less chance of errors [21:21] hi, what do i need to install to get flash movies playing in firefox? [21:21] * ArchLinux_Sucks wonders why they even have speeds of 54x on burning software. [21:21] Ruby: ok at times like this having an external hard disk, comes in useful [21:21] Ruby: got one you can move data to? [21:21] anyone else having playback problems with flash in fullscreen? i have tried flashplugin-installer and the package from the adobe webiste, in bitch cases the performance is terrible [21:21] Nope [21:21] Could a flash drive work [21:21] kind sir thank you for the help [21:21] Ruby: depends on what data you have, and how big the flash drive is [21:22] 8 gb, its just some music of my mothers and her bookmarks [21:22] whats up sebsebseb [21:22] znag: Is you using 64 bit system? [21:22] its me [21:22] PAT PAT [21:22] Patrickaaaa: oh [21:22] what you mean oh [21:22] Let me try reinstalling xserver [21:22] you not happy to see my ...why [21:22] Patrickaaaa: as in I sort of remember you [21:23] oh [21:23] im the one with backtrack 4 [21:23] Ruby: yes that's worth a try in the root shell in recovery mode [21:23] It is still connected to the internet [21:23] znag, tell me about it. [21:23] Running dpkg right now [21:23] hello) i'm trying to install ubuntu9.04 alternate in my new pc which already have 2 harddisk in raid0 and win7 installed on it... I've read many guides and tutorials about raid 0 and dual boot bla bla bla but I am really stuck+ bit bored of formatting / reinstall everything all the time.... anyone can take care of me ? [21:23] which software allows me to use my laptop camera? [21:23] hvgotcodes: kaffeine does a nice job of it; vlc too [21:23] hvgotcodes: cheese configures them [21:24] !webcam | hvgotcodes [21:24] hvgotcodes: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [21:24] znag, same here. flash fullscreen in windows is no problem, in ubuntu its useless [21:24] no default software? [21:24] riki, whats so how about that? [21:24] sebsebseb, thanx [21:24] hvgotcodes: I guess not as such, but AMSN has web cam support [21:24] isn't it basically the same thing as installing another other OS ? or does it work different since you have a RAID) [21:24] how can I explain...all my installs have failed so far :| [21:24] RAID0 [21:25] sebsebseb, have they installed voice support in AMSN yet? [21:25] Trying apt-get upgrade --fix-missing [21:25] when you installed ...did you let linux partition the disk for you [21:25] Pirate_Hunter: not that I know of, but all of those programs are getting there for features [21:25] or did you manually choose to partition it [21:25] Pirate_Hunter: the next Kmess should be pretty good for example [21:26] I tried installing win7 first and leaving space for ubuntu to partition : fail...i tried installing ubuntu alternate and make the partitions for it and leaving space for win7 : failed [21:26] riki: why Win7? [21:26] you have two HDD right? [21:26] I am having trouble installing a software thats compressed in a .rpm .. I can open it with KPackage and i am given the option to install it. but when i try to install in i get an error message.. I just downloaded the .rpm form the vendor's site. I dont think that there is anything wrong with the file i think that i am doing something worng... can anyone help? [21:26] yes 2 hdd 500MB each in raid0 [21:26] 500gb* [21:26] How many GB of space do you have left to spare? [21:26] sebsebseb, ok well I'll wait till the svn ,moves from alpha testing to beta at least on the voice calling feature and kmess sounds like a mess (sorry couldnt resist) [21:26] thelaugh2ngmime: ok RPM and Ubuntu hmm [21:26] i would like to put 70gb win7 300 gb for ubuntus [21:27] !kmess > Pirate_Hunter [21:27] Sorry, I don't know anything about kmess [21:27] 700*GB win7 300 ubuntu [21:27] oh jesus that is alot [21:27] thelaugh2ngmime: now there's alien, some say it's good and all, others say it's dangours as you will see now [21:27] !alien | thelaugh2ngmime [21:27] thelaugh2ngmime: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) [21:27] !info kmess > Pirate_Hunter [21:27] does someone know where the passwords for wlan connections are stored in ubuntu? [21:27] Pirate_Hunter: check this out about amsn http://amsn.sourceforge.net/wiki/tiki-index.php?page=Audio+and+Video+support+status [21:27] I've tried also fakeraid howto guide without any positive result [21:27] do you have a regular window xp cd [21:27] ok. thank [21:27] thelaugh2ngmime: RPM's on Ubuntu is a bit hmm, just like Deb's on Redhat or Fedora would be a bit hmm [21:28] let me ask you this then... how can i get vmware installed on my system [21:28] exit [21:28] thelaugh2ngmime: How about Virtualbox instead? [21:28] Does anyone know how to check a disk for errors? I very often have truble at boot time, and have to run fsck.ext3 on the disk, and I am wondering if my disk i broken? [21:28] will it run Vmware machines? [21:28] ok does it really matter if you have raid0? or are you just finding it difficult to install ubuntu [21:28] thelaugh2ngmime: If you want a RPM distro in a virtual machine, I highly recommend Fedora 11 :) [21:28] thelaugh2ngmime: yes vbox will run vmware machines [21:29] oooo... scunizi.. thanks [21:29] thelaugh2ngmime: yep Virtualbox can run vmdk files, without needing a stupid vmx file also :) [21:29] thelaugh2ngmime: check their doc out for specific info.. also #vbox [21:29] you know [21:29] and I thought today was going to be one that I would spend playing prototype and chugging coca cola [21:30] yes raid0 matters ... i think i would be able to install in a normal 2xhard disks but thats not what i want [21:30] :D [21:30] How can I disable automounting of partitions in ubuntu to /media, it's not in fstab [21:30] oh i c [21:30] How can I determine if my disk is broken or will break soon? [21:30] will it run vmware machines that have been converted from .tib files ? (.tib = acrnois images) [21:30] then i can't help you [21:30] Ruby: oh, well it's a bit annoying, but this is good for learning, make sure you don't just leave it doing an update [21:31] Ruby, with linux it is never that simple especially when updating fails and right now im extremely bored waiting for 20GB to be transfered [21:31] Ruby: so someone else dosn't come on and yeah [21:31] another question why did you decide to go with RAID0? [21:31] thelaugh2ngmime: ask in #vbox [21:31] yeah, speed [21:31] did you do that to be able to read quicker? [21:31] ok thanks [21:31] oh gotcha [21:31] just for speed [21:31] I understand [21:31] whats recommended software raid in ubuntu? [21:31] Ruby: also you might have some programs installed, that want you to do something when your upgrading everything [21:32] I know that raid0 does not provide a fault tolerant but can you tell me exactly how it works i forgot [21:32] i just want to refresh my memory [21:32] Ruby: anyway 8GB USB stick, so sure get hold of the data put it on there, and move to another computer or something [21:32] ok if everyone can give me an hand with installing ubuntu in raid0 with win7 please pm me i'll leave irc open in background---thanks in advance [21:33] I think its repairable [21:33] I'm not going to give up hope yet [21:33] th0r, you there ? [21:33] riki, what ever tutorial i read a long time ago which the link ahs been lost with the other hds which i have destroyed ubuntu implementation of raid takes a total different spin on install, I think you might have to do a fresh install of it implementing ubuntu method of raid (still not too sure of it, things have changed since 5 years back) [21:33] Ruby: I been there before [21:33] kitty_: so long as this wifi holds [21:33] But, I'm not going to refuse to accept the inevitable [21:33] http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/210601/ [21:34] Ruby: I ended up doing some weird thing, someone helped, and in the end it was just better to clean install [21:34] Ruby: I could have just clean installed basically, but I wanted to learn something so [21:34] Pirate_Hunter I tried that.... not worked (but maybe i broke something during partitioning since my skills ) [21:34] I'm at least going to try to repair it to a state where I can use the graphical interface to navigate all the stuff onto my USB [21:34] Ruby: sometimes it's best to just clean install, espesailly after a failed upgrade [21:34] Ruby: no you go on the Live CD [21:35] so they look pretty similar to me [21:35] Ruby: access your partition, and put data on the USB like that [21:35] rom1v: I wonder if your nvidia-common problem matches https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-common/+bug/292606 comments there suggest purging nvidia-common and reinstalling it. I saw something similar in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292606 . But that involved dkms message and a dkms defect that I made a patch for. [21:35] Ah [21:35] kitty_: I don't see anywhere in that script that would generatte that error message [21:35] riki, ok still it could be the IDE that is not being detected still i aint certain since i dont mess with raid so far haven't had the need to use it [21:35] is it possible to take the drivers used for Ubuntu 9.04 and load them into nUbuntu? [21:35] Ah crap [21:36] Ruby: try not to swear here, and I guess you didn't download a Live CD and that's why you put that? [21:36] kitty_: does dmesg give you any indication of what went wrong? [21:36] yeah well i have no clue what i'm doing wrong, thats the diff between the mac's init.d folder and this computer's [21:36] nope [21:36] lemme see if i can get the dmesg [21:36] No its the fact that I have the ISOs but I cant find any DVDs [21:37] Just my luck, ha-ha [21:37] !instal | Ruby [21:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about instal [21:37] !install [21:37] Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways.

If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [21:47] no, it doesnt show up. added nv nvidia_new to the restricted modules and rebooted. [21:47] guntbert: well I can see what she is saying anyway [21:47] i did a diff from one computer to the other, to show that the files were not that entirely different [21:47] I have tried running the nvidia configuration script. [21:47] i did a diff of the entire init.d folder [21:47] and pastebin'd the results [21:47] Ruby: yeah if you type the first few letters of someones name and then hit tab, you can auto complete. also if you use someones names in IRC, their clients usually high light the message [21:47] sebsebseb [21:47] :D [21:48] Ruby: need to do enough letters for a unique name normalley though [21:48] hello , how can i add Gnome Shell on Ubuntu 9.04 [21:48] ?

[21:53] * kitty_ waits for about 3 hours again [21:53] Nope [21:53] Its buried somewhere [21:54] In moving boxes [21:54] Hi. How would default ubuntu run on a 1GHz machine with 256 MB RAM? [21:54] Ruby: oh right, well good luck [21:54] * kitty_ hugs j0ve [21:54] omr: when you start gnome-terminal you get a shell, right? [21:54] shortliner, i would run the built-in drivers and nvidia-settings, and nvidia-xconfigure [21:54] jgriffin, it would run fine [21:54] now maybe i can get my x to work now that hald might actually work [21:54] Shadowww yes, but why would running x64 on it make it so much slower? I do intend to up it to 4Gb though [21:54] ill give that a shot.

[21:55] right now it is empty [21:55] jgriffin: 9.04 on older hardware hmm [21:55] guntbert: yeah you do. [21:55] does anyone know an audio player app that will alow me to play back a stereo audio file in mono? I have a podcast where the sound keeps moving around from left to right and it drives me nuts [21:56] jgriffin: 8.10 on older hardware hmm. 8.04.2 on older hardware that should work for sure [21:56] jgriffin: with 256MB RAM [21:56] peeps[work]: you should be able to fix it using sox [21:56] k4rt33k: I do what? [21:56] How do I search for a file in my Music folder and play it in mplayer without making a playlist out of it [21:57] guntbert: you get a shell [21:57] jgriffin: however a distro such as Puppy Linux would probably also work much better, since it's designed for old hardware [21:57] I am looking for a command [21:57] k4rt33k: try 'play' [21:57] k4rt33k: use find perhaps... [21:57] I tried piping the search results but it doesn't seem to work [21:57] do you need this for x11 [21:57] mplayer $(find /options/path/name) (or somthing) [21:57] ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/x11_release [21:58] Does anyone know where I could find something that allows me to tab any windows I have open? There is a program for this on mac called "sticky windows" [21:58] sebsebseb: I've alread got FreeBSD running on it, it's just I'm short on time and was looking into a more "as soon as you boot you can watch flash movies" kind of distro. I might just stick with freebsd though, if the installation of GNOME quits being stupid. [21:58] k4rt33k: yes, I know, I was talking to omr, there was a bit of confusion about that fact :) [21:58] x11 lol haven't heard that since my fbsdd days [21:58] Dr_Willis: I tried find and got the output onto the terminal (the path to the file) I piped it to | mplayer [21:58] k4rt33k: you can use the -exec feature of find perhaps. [21:58] dffd [21:58] k4rt33k: or use the $() syntax. [21:58] jgriffin: as soon as can install you can watch Flash movies distro heh, maybe your after Mint or some such, it's Ubuntu based, but can't get support for it here [21:59] Dr_Willis: Oh will look into it thanks for the tip [21:59] sebsebseb: That was just a generalizatoin. What I meant was a "plug and play" kind of distro like Ubuntu. [21:59] Nvidia board detected. Ignoring ACPI timer override << What exactly does this mean? [21:59] jgriffin: Mint would be one [22:00] sebsebseb: relative to freebsd, I've found ubuntu to be one also.
