| Scunizi | unitedpotsmokers: If you can surf youtube at home or a wifi spot and not at school then it's probably a restriction the school has put on their network | 00:02 |
| Halitech | unitedpotsmokers, if your college admin has blocked sites like youtube then for us to assist in getting you past the firewall would be wrong | 00:03 |
| Big | unitedpotsmokers: , try looking up TOR | 00:03 |
| OttifantSir | @unitedpotsmokers: Have the schools of higher edutcation been renamed? I though collEge was school, and collAge was a picture of many pictures pasted together. Have I been wrong for the past 15 years? | 00:03 |

| SpacePigeon | can somebody point me to a guide on how to make a windows bootable usb (from linux) | 00:06 |
| Cube | ikonia: lol are you gonna bother me the whole night about it? | 00:06 |
| Markopotomus | Hi hi. Rearding this password for default keyring business, that I have to enter when the computer starts up as it connects to my home wireless network, do I really have to enter it each time or is there a way to get it to remember? | 00:06 |
| ikonia | Cube: no, I'm asking why you gave it me | 00:06 |
| SpacePigeon | the startup disk creation tool works only for ubuntu bootable usbs | 00:06 |
| rocko | how do I configure where the programs I have icons for in the application menu | 00:07 |
| Halitech | SpacePigeon, look into BartPE | 00:07 |
| dijonmustard | I have a vista pe image | 00:07 |
| Halitech | SpacePigeon, not that windows runs all that well from a USB stick | 00:07 |
| dijonmustard | it runs fine Halitech | 00:08 |

| SpacePigeon | Halitech, yeah, i'm just trying to run a chkdsk /f on a windows computer (acer laptop) which has no cd drive | 00:08 |
| SpacePigeon | so i just need the repairing functions | 00:08 |
| rave | ikonia yes loadrunner is available for linux | 00:08 |
| SpacePigeon | not that i will run windows on it haha | 00:08 |
| * Markopotomus fixed his EeePC using the Ubuntu desktop CD on a USB stick today :) | 00:08 | |
| Halitech | dijonmustard, they must have made some changes then | 00:08 |
| pas | hello, I've upgraded to karmic with the simple "update-manager -d" , everything went fine, except on restart I've got neither splash (I know it's by design) nor kernel boot messages. any advice? am I alone with this? should I file a bug? | 00:08 |
| dijonmustard | spacepigeon the easiest thing to do is just put another cdrom in it | 00:08 |
| ikonia | rave: can't see any info on the HP website | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | !karmic | pas | 00:08 |
| ubottu | pas: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 00:08 |
| rave | ikonia yes loadrunner is available for linux but it is for enterprise red hat linux | 00:08 |
| dijonmustard | even if temporarily | 00:08 |
| Halitech | SpacePigeon, any option of a floppy? | 00:08 |
| VCoolio | rocko: that's kind of an incomplete question but I think rightclick on the menu and then "edit menus" should get you started | 00:09 |
| pas | thanks | 00:09 |
| sebsebseb | np | 00:09 |
| rave | i have the script and package with me but it says prerequiste not there | 00:09 |
| ikonia | rave: then you'll have a hard time, you'd have to extract the rpm's "hope" they have compatible library sets and then place them in the correct place on your ubuntu box | 00:09 |
| Martin31 | hey sebsebseb you helped me earlier, is there a chance you can help me again ? this time regarding my wireless network device | 00:09 |
| Halitech | !alien | rave | 00:09 |
| ubottu | rave: 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) | 00:09 |
| rave | ikonia i have the script and package with me but it says prerequiste not there | 00:09 |
| SpacePigeon | Halitech, nah, it doesn't have a floppy drive either (nor i have a portable usb floppy drive) | 00:10 |
| ikonia | rave: which prerequisites are missing | 00:10 |
| sebsebseb | Martin31: earlier? you mean the other day with something? | 00:10 |

| ubottu | Martin31: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 00:10 |
| Halitech | SpacePigeon, look into a usb boot disk at bootdisk.com | 00:10 |

| Martin31 | sebsebseb: i am connected with my wireless device but its not working properly | 00:11 |

| dijonmustard | anyone here running xp using vmware? | 00:12 |
| SpacePigeon | Halitech, haha | 00:12 |
| gogeta | MidsummerDawn: donno check google | 00:12 |
| Martin31 | sebsebseb: its more of a troubleshooting thing because i already got it to work | 00:12 |
| SpacePigeon | Halitech, i just figured out while looking at community's doc | 00:12 |
| gogeta | dijonmustard: i have | 00:12 |
| sebsebseb | dijonmustard: I have used VMware player and server before, but Virtualbox :) | 00:12 |
| Scunizi | dijonmustard: I have for about a year but I prefer virtualbox | 00:12 |
| gogeta | sebsebseb: hehe vbox 3 d3d support :) | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | Martin31: well provide full details and someone else can probably help | 00:13 |
| dijonmustard | i heard virtualbox is buggy | 00:13 |
| Halitech | SpacePigeon, I used it a long time ago to get ubuntu installed on an old compaq that had a dead cdrom | 00:13 |
| Scunizi | dijonmustard: nope | 00:13 |
| emery | how would i mount . /dev/sdb1 | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | dijonmustard: Virtualbox is amazing :) | 00:13 |
| gogeta | Halitech: lol unetbootin is your frend | 00:13 |
| Halitech | emery, sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mount/point | 00:13 |
| Scunizi | dijonmustard: if you get it from the repos then you don't have usb support.. get it from thier repos instead.. | 00:13 |
| dijonmustard | grrr i just got done installing vmware server | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | gogeta: yeah, but how good is it really? | 00:14 |
| Halitech | gogeta, yeah, only downside is you need to have an OS running to use it | 00:14 |
| sebsebseb | gogeta: have you tested? | 00:14 |
| gogeta | sebsebseb: what vbox 3 | 00:14 |
| sebsebseb | gogeta: yep and the Directx support | 00:14 |
| dijonmustard | they have directx support now? | 00:14 |
| dijonmustard | wow | 00:14 |
| gogeta | sebsebseb: no i did it in vmware thow | 00:14 |

| mezquitale | I installed an SSH server in my local lan and can connect to it via ssh -p xxx user@192.168.1.x, how can I connect to the server remotely from the internet? Would I be able to ssh to my machine just by resolving the IP of my router?? Or something special needs to be done so I can ssh from the internet to my ssh server that's connected via a cable modem and router? | 00:16 |
| dijonmustard | they got caldega and that other one crossover so games dont seem to be that big of a deal for linux anymore | 00:16 |
| Cube | ikonia: but we cool right? | 00:16 |
| Cube | ikonia: im sorry man | 00:16 |
| ikonia | mezquitale: 192.168 is non-routable, you'll need to nat/portforward your public IP address | 00:16 |
| gogeta | Scunizi: vmware makes the card show up as a genric nivida or ari | 00:16 |

| AndorinKato | Is it possible for a wireless card to have trouble with connecting to just /one/ specific network? I'm on my laptop (Jaunty) and when I try to connect to the library's wireless via wicd, it never gets past the "Obtaining IP Address" stage. Others can connect since I see them on their computers... | 00:17 |
| gogeta | ati | 00:17 |
| Scunizi | gogeta: yep.. that's normal | 00:17 |
| Halitech | mezquitale, you would need to forward ports on your router (if you have 1) and y ou might want to look into a free name service like dyndns.com | 00:17 |
| bastidrazor | mezquitale, forward port 22 to your internal IP | 00:17 |
| sebsebseb | dijonmustard: yep it's getting there, with the help of Wine, and Virtualbox | 00:17 |
| Scunizi | gogeta: probably similar in vbox. | 00:17 |
| Martin31 | Okay so I have a wireless usb device to connect to my network, it's a Netgear WG111v2. It works out of the box, but I get max download speeds of 90kb/s, even while transferring files on my lan. Any help ? | 00:17 |
| OttifantSir | @Big: Try running this in a terminal: "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel" (without quotation marks) and log out of your session and back in to restart X. See if that gives you anything. Also, give us any error messages during install of this driver. | 00:17 |
| gogeta | Andorin wicd you have to turn off keys for it to connect to a open | 00:17 |
| Barridus | ever since creating a xsession script to use gnome with openbox wm, my sound starts muted upon login. is there some command i need to add to this script to unmute and set the sound level to max? | 00:17 |
| dijonmustard | i implement microsoft for a living but i say more and more the future is open source | 00:18 |
| gogeta | Andorinor it will try to send your keys and of course fail | 00:18 |
| mezquitale | bastid_razor, i changed the port, i think port 22 is being blocked by my isp, anyone knows if cable internet blocks ports to be used for ssh? im not using the default port | 00:18 |
| sebsebseb | dijonmustard: of course there are some pretty good games for Linux, just got to know where to get them from, but there's still this idea that Windows gaming is better, so once Virtualbox can support it properly :) | 00:18 |
| ikonia | mezquitale: contact your isp | 00:18 |
| gogeta | mezquitale: no no isp blocks port 23 | 00:19 |
| bastidrazor | mezquitale, then forward the port ssh is listening to.. i have the same situation and simply changed the port ssh listens to then forwarded that port in my router | 00:19 |
| gogeta | ssh | 00:19 |
| dijonmustard | yeah i use to play quake3 in linux | 00:19 |
| gogeta | mezquitale: they normaly block 22 to stop ftp servers | 00:19 |
| dijonmustard | and enemy territory | 00:19 |
| Halitech | gogeta, ftp is on 21 | 00:20 |
| daszorz | i've installed a second net card, it shows up in lspci but theres no eth1, can anyone help? | 00:20 |
| mezquitale | Halitech, so basically I would use the ip on my cable modem to reach my ssh server and I would need to redirect the port I use for ssh to the ip on the ssh server? | 00:20 |
| gogeta | lol oops | 00:20 |
| gogeta | yea 21 | 00:20 |
| Halitech | mezquitale, yes | 00:20 |
| gogeta | they dont block 22 | 00:20 |

| erxin | i cant login to vnc from a remote pc, can anyone help me out | 00:22 |
| VCoolio | Barridus: that will work only with alsa; for pulseaudio check what command you need to unmute and set to some % | 00:22 |
| gogeta | Andorin: for there can turn off wifi securty or chage it | 00:22 |
| Nozy | mfs | 00:22 |

| Scunizi | dijonmustard: irssi probably does | 00:28 |
| gogeta | Hoss: apt-get purge wine | 00:29 |
| AndorinKato | gogeta: Nope, it got stuck on "Obtaining IP address" and then just quit. When I said that the box was unchecked, I mean that it was unchecked by default. | 00:29 |
| gogeta | Hoss: removes config files | 00:29 |
| Hoss | gogeta: why doesnt remove get rid of it? | 00:29 |
| Scunizi | can_: if you can activate compiz then it has an expose feature.. cube too! | 00:29 |
| gogeta | AndorinKato: sounds like they filter the network | 00:29 |
| dijonmustard | What is the easiest way to cloak your self on irc minus using a proxy? | 00:29 |

| Dr_Willis | lwells: as you are shutting down befor the pc powers off? not a big issue.. just how the card/memory is getting reset/displayed i imagine | 00:44 |
| coleys | phant0m_: Honestly you need to calm down, =p ... chmod + x /path/to/jarfile.jar | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | You can make a .jar exexutable? never tried that. | 00:45 |
| Andorin | gogeta: Indeed... oh, by the way, I was also unable to connect to the network when I ran Vista on this laptop, so I don't think it's my software. | 00:45 |

| lwells | Dr_Willis: It is a normal shut down, happens everytime | 00:45 |
| coleys | phant0m_: You really need to be more clear.... I do not know what your refering too... | 00:45 |
| gogeta | phant0m_: installing java might help :) | 00:45 |
| Andorin | gogeta: When I got here the first thing I tried to do was connect to the library's network... I'm on someone's linksys atm. I could try disconnecting and reconnecting if it makes you feel better. | 00:45 |
| Dr_Willis | lwells: quirk of the video drivers/card. ivbe seen it on a few box's | 00:45 |

| gogeta | P|kkie: then its not using pulse | 00:53 |
| Cajun_Lan_Man | carter: can you be more specific as to what you mean by poor performance? | 00:54 |
| usser | carter, possibly, intel is slow on 9.04 | 00:54 |
| P|kkie | ok in the #winehq they said to run "pgrep pulse" if it returned a number it was running pulse and it returned a number | 00:54 |

| Titan8990 | Martin31, what driver? | 01:08 |
| Martin31 | Titan8990: for a Netgear WG111v2 wireless network adapter | 01:08 |
| Titan8990 | Martin31, what does lspci say the chip is? | 01:09 |
| Titan8990 | Martin31, it is doubtful you need ndiswrapper + the windows driver | 01:09 |
| sephy | How exactly do I get widgets? | 01:09 |
| Martin31 | Titan8990: i dont think lspci will work because its a usb device | 01:10 |

| l7 | ad-hoc wifi that is | 01:19 |
| Titan8990 | tronixor, change the boot order in your bios | 01:19 |
| pumpkinseed | I got it. It was not that "External Amplifier" was unchecked, it was because "IEC958 Optical Raw" was checked and needed to be unchecked. | 01:19 |
| Titan8990 | tronixor, or if the mbr was actually written to the internal drive, you will need to do some work on the mbrs | 01:19 |
| bruenig | tronixor: editing the menu.lst in /boot/grub will fix the boot order | 01:20 |
| Titan8990 | bruenig, if you read close i think the problem actually is that nothing will boot and he is looking at the solution being a changed boot order | 01:21 |

| OttifantSir | @ha: Try a live-CD of 8.10 or 9.04 first and see what that does | 01:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm | 01:25 |
| l7 | Bookman: did you try running top to see what is using up so many CPU cycles? | 01:26 |
| ha | do you think that new versions will fix these problems | 01:26 |
| Bookman | l7: xorg is the top user | 01:26 |
| Bookman | 10% | 01:26 |
| l7 | 10% is a little high, but not very abnormal. what else is running? | 01:27 |
| OttifantSir | @ha: Maybe. If it does, it's a rather easy fix to do an upgrade. If not, there's something else wrong | 01:27 |
| l7 | often firefox + flash and javascript will eat up a lot of CPU | 01:27 |
| ha | thanks | 01:27 |
| Bookman | l7: it goes beyond that. no firefox, just xchat | 01:27 |
| Bookman | l7: and why upon reboot is xchat now blue themed | 01:28 |
| pablo--- | adobe's flash 10 codec need lot of cpu clock, i have the same issue | 01:28 |
| pablo--- | i think that is inevitable | 01:28 |

| l7 | Bookman: blue themed? maybe it's the KDE theme? | 01:28 |
| Bookman | l7: i'm in gnome | 01:28 |
| coleys | Bookman: Change your gtk theme? | 01:29 |
| Bookman | nope | 01:29 |

| alex_dinamo | I have a wifi card and my video card sharing the same IRQ (18) I suspect that is causing me trouble | 01:31 |
| OttifantSir | @Bookman: You have had something happen that's happened to me too. The blue theme is Tango, the fallback theme when something goes wrong. And you're probably not in YOUR user session, but guest session | 01:31 |
| bruenig | Bookman: what happens when you try to launch things from the terminal | 01:31 |
| bruenig | any output? | 01:31 |
| bruenig | I imagine this is gtk oriented | 01:31 |
| bruenig | otherwise, it wouldn't apply to all of these various apps | 01:31 |
| Bookman | Offifantsir: I'm in my session | 01:32 |
| OttifantSir | @Bookman: Then you're slightly better off than I've been. | 01:32 |

| bruenig | Bookman: launch the problem apps | 01:34 |
| Bookman | and looks "crude" or ten years old | 01:34 |
| OttifantSir | So, bruenig, please explain to me why that is. | 01:34 |
| bruenig | also, try launching apps as root, perhaps there is some strange configuration issues in your home dir | 01:34 |

| karaeska | alex_dinamo: IRQ or IRC? | 01:36 |
| bruenig | OttifantSir: everyone else simply types the name followed by a comma or colon. So yours is obnoxious in that context | 01:36 |
| alex_dinamo | karaeska: IRQs, hardware interruptions | 01:36 |

| gartral | erm, take the www. part off | 01:59 |
| paracelsus | Yea, either wubi or a VM is a good route if you have no burner or want a small footprint, etc. | 02:00 |
| Kalmi | or you install from USB (easy) | 02:00 |
| fission6 | nah i'd like to offical boot into unbuntu, windows is pissing me off with viruses | 02:00 |

| soreau | fission6: Booting from usb is an option if your bios supports that | 02:01 |
| Kalmi | fission6, have you got a pendrive? | 02:01 |
| fission6 | ok so whats my best option here, i'd like to download ubuntu to my partion i am not using, and somehow install there and boot into ubuntu | 02:02 |
| fission6 | no external media available | 02:02 |
| gartral | fission6: thats a normal install... grab the iso for your computer type and burn it using cdrtools | 02:02 |
| paracelsus | Well, Wubi will boot indepedent of Windows but runs off a virtual filesystem contained on the NTFS partition. A vm would be easier to move at a later point, but will require (at least for now) you to run it atop windows. | 02:02 |
| fission6 | I DO NOT have any cds, unless you mean emulate it | 02:03 |
| paracelsus | Wubi is a pretty good option as that way you don't have to start Windows at all. | 02:03 |

| oakmac | Sandisk Sansa e200 (i think, it might be a e250) | 02:04 |
| gartral | i had too edit parts of gphoto to get my e250s to mount | 02:04 |
| oakmac | it has mounted previously; the upgrade to 9.04 had this problem | 02:05 |
| Bookman | Kalmi: any ideas or am I just beat here. | 02:05 |
| oakmac | jrib: other things mount correctly | 02:05 |
| Kalmi | Bookman, you could run "sudo top" to find processes not fully listed in systemmonitor | 02:05 |
| gartral | oakmac: were seeing same issue, ok, one sec, let me figure out where the file is | 02:05 |
| jrib | oakmac: switch the mode your sansa uses to switch files and try again? | 02:05 |
| oakmac | jrib: it's set in the USB portable storage mode | 02:05 |
| Bookman | Kalmi: I do that and the only thing that takes up big cpu cycles (10%) is xorg | 02:05 |
| jrib | oakmac: switch the mode your sansa uses to switch files and try again? | 02:05 |
| gartral | jrib oakmac go ahead and try, but i doubt it will help | 02:06 |
| Kalmi | Bookman, you said that there was "100% cpu usage" | 02:06 |
| Bookman | Kalmi: yup. system monitor shows 100% | 02:06 |
| Bookman | Kalmi: hard drive is working like crazy | 02:07 |
| fission6 | i think ill try wubi | 02:07 |
| blackest_knight | does the gateway address on a router have to be on the wan port or could it be on a lan port essentially the router would be providing dhcp and wireless services and pointing the other lan clients to the gateway | 02:07 |
| fission6 | thanks for the recommedation | 02:07 |
| Kalmi | Bookman, and top as root shows nothing? | 02:07 |
| oakmac | it's still having the same problem | 02:07 |
| oakmac | switched to other mode, plugged it in (nothing happens), switched back to USB mode (nothing happens) | 02:07 |
| oakmac | this used to work fine in 8.10; any ideas? | 02:08 |

| oakmac | it's in /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/10osvendor/20-libgphoto2.fdi | 02:09 |
| gartral | oakmac: ok, gksu gedit /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/10osvendor/20-libgphoto2.fdi | 02:09 |
| jrib | gartral, oakmac: gphoto shouldn't even be involved if it's being mounted as MSC | 02:09 |
| oakmac | ok, i'm in there; it's an XML file | 02:10 |
| gartral | jrib: I know, but it is classified by gphoto as a camera, not a media player... and it causes weird stuff too hapen | 02:10 |
| OttifantSir | dethredic: I'm as surprised as you. Usually Broadcom is a lot harder to do. | 02:10 |
| gartral | oakmac: ctl-f and find Sansa E200 | 02:11 |
| jrib | gartral: bug 363101 ? | 02:11 |

| fireun | ubuntu: if its an older ati radeon, you're only hope is the open source drivers | 02:22 |
| sam555 | just installed ubuntu server 9.04 32 bit version | 02:22 |
| sam555 | during the install, I requested that mysql be installed | 02:22 |
| sam555 | how does one get mysql to start manuall upon boot up? | 02:22 |
| ubuntu | gartral: thank you, will try that now | 02:22 |
| sam555 | is there documentation specific for ubuntu server 9.04 re: mysql? | 02:22 |
| dunks | it should by default sam555 | 02:22 |

| OttifantSir | cjae: The way I have understood LVM is that you bunch a group of discs together to make a larger disc of them. Such that if you have 2 500GB drives and want to have 1 800GB drive and 2 100GB drives, the information is spread across the two drives. But there is no redundancy and no safety in LVM. Lose one disc, lose it all. | 02:23 |
| Bookman | Kalmi: ok, now everything is still blue and crude looking | 02:23 |

| kandinski | I copied my /home directory over to this laptop from another computer, and now my keyboard does not work under X (notably the f keys). How can I restore it to default values? I am running jaunty. | 02:23 |

| Kalmi | Bookman, log off and log bakc in | 02:23 |
| cjae | OttifantSir, thanks for responding | 02:24 |
| Bookman | Kalmi: will do | 02:24 |
| Dr_Willis | kandinski: gnome has its settings in .gnome* and .gconf* you coumd move/rename those dirs (but you will loose all ghe gnome settings), as a test you could just add a new user and see if the keyboard works properly for them | 02:24 |
| fireun | how could 9.04 break basic printing? | 02:24 |

| mattgyver[L] | Is it possible to temporarily change the window manager from compiz to metacity upon a SSH VNC connection, then switch back after logoff? | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | sagaci: they should be open.. if you have a service thats running on them.. theres no firewall rules by default. | 02:25 |
| mazda01 | tovid can't finish because it can't find encoded.mpg file. anyone know anything about this error? | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | !firewall | sagaci | 02:25 |
| ubottu | sagaci: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 02:25 |

| OttifantSir | mattgyver: install fusion-icon. I don't use it, but as I have understood it, it turns Compiz on and off | 02:26 |
| coleys | mattgyver[L]: Or you can just use a script. | 02:26 |
| Bookman | Kalmi: ok, theme is good now...thanks, but all needs to be reset, correct? Like evolution? | 02:26 |
| adam7 | mattgyver[L]: you can run metacity --replace or compiz --replace to change the window managers, I think | 02:27 |
| cellofellow | mattgyver: just put a launcher on the panel with `metacity --replace` and label it "Compiz Off", and another launcher called `compiz --replace` and label it "Compiz On". | 02:27 |
| mattgyver[L] | OttifantSir, I use fusion icon however im looking for something i dont have to mess with, coleys ive thought about a script as well, but wasnt sure if something existed | 02:27 |
| fireun | I've looked thru the /var/log/cups/ files and nothing indicates cups has an issue with printing - but after blinking a few times and warming up, my brother 2040 just go back to a solid idle led as if it finished printing | 02:27 |
| Bookman | Kalmi: cpu near zero | 02:27 |
| cellofellow | mattgyver[L]: or you can make a sophisticated script that will detect which is running and launch the other. | 02:28 |
| fireun | I've tried reinstalling the drivers, the ones in apt are the same as listed on the brother website - no change | 02:28 |

| phpDEMON | guys i have a question | 02:28 |
| coleys | !question | phpDEMON | 02:29 |
| ubottu | phpDEMON: 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. :-) | 02:29 |
| kandinski | Dr_Willis: thanks, I will look inside .gnome* and .gconf*, and replace comonents piecemeal till I get it to work | 02:29 |
| cellofellow | fireun: maybe the proprietary TurboPrint CUPS drivers will work. | 02:29 |
| Kalmi | I don't know how Evolution handles corrupted files... If it doesn't start, you could delete its files.... | 02:29 |
| fireun | cellofellow: I had it working just fine in Intrepid before I upgraded | 02:29 |
| Kalmi | Bookman, | 02:29 |
| cellofellow | fireun: :( | 02:29 |
| mattgyver[L] | Those are all very good suggestions but is there a way to incorporate that into running as soon as a client connects via SSH, like an init file that could be edited to run the script | 02:30 |
| phpDEMON | Why does the xpad driver not sync up with wine on Jaunty | 02:30 |
| fireun | cellofellow: yeah, another strike against Jaunty | 02:30 |
| Bookman | Kalmi: yes | 02:30 |
| cellofellow | mattgyver[L]: might be something that ~/.ssh/config can do for that. man ssh_config. | 02:30 |
| Dr_Willis | kandinski: test with a new user.. if the thing dont work with a totally new user.. you got bigger issues | 02:30 |
| mattgyver[L] | cellofellow, great, thanks for the hot tip ';) | 02:30 |
| Kalmi | Bookman, I don't know how Evolution handles corrupted files... If it doesn't start, you could delete its files.... | 02:30 |

| coleys | !ff35 | 02:31 |
| ubottu | Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for more info | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 02:31 |
| Dr_Willis | mubu: it allready is | 02:31 |
| gartral | oakmac: ok, just dont expect some cameras to work now :) | 02:31 |
| OttifantSir | coleys, mattgyver: That script seems halfway there. It stops Compiz, but I think he wants to start an SSH session after stopping Compiz and wake it back up when the session ends. | 02:31 |
| oakmac | gartral: i don't even own a camera ;) | 02:31 |
| mubu | Dr_Willis, Thats weird, when i open the update manager and check for updates it doesnt show up in the list... it says my system is up to date... | 02:31 |
| gartral | oakmac: i have one of the Kodak Easyshare crap cams | 02:32 |
| coleys | OttifantSir: For VNC or..? | 02:32 |
| Dr_Willis | mubu: its not a required update. | 02:32 |
| Dr_Willis | mubu: like the bot said... is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | 02:32 |
| Bookman | coleys: or just move to trash in nautilus | 02:32 |
| Pici | mubu: its a different package name, see ubottu's message above. | 02:32 |

| Dr_Willis | $ firefox<tab> --> firefox | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | firefox firefox-3.0 firefox-3.5 | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | mubu: no idea..im not really worried about it.. If i want FF3.5 i wull launch ff35 | 02:54 |
| Hilikus | mubu it wont be offician il janty | 02:54 |
| zaltekk | Dr_Willis: the binary name is usually the same, it is just "rebranded" in the app and on your desktop icon | 02:54 |
| coleys | Dr_Willis: Compile ftw =D | 02:54 |
| Dr_Willis | mubu: for now many of my extensions do NOT work in 3.5 so i am using 3.0.11 | 02:54 |
| Martin31 | coleys: thanks, it worked like a charm :) | 02:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Im not sure why everyone is bending over backwards and acting rabbid to get FF3.5 | 02:55 |
| m4rt11 | Dr_Willis: its a 251gb ext hard drive, and i checked each folder including the hidden ones, i did do the 'find' command under terminal and it pointed out the same folders that i see on the hdd. however when i highlighted everything on nautilus it said its about 92mb when it mentions that theres only 92gb left | 02:55 |
| zaltekk | Dr_Willis: it has much better performance | 02:55 |
| coleys | Martin31: No thanks necessary =p You did it all ... | 02:55 |
| lwells | Dr_Willis: Firefox 3.5 is still in beta for ubuntu right? | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | zaltekk: i cant really tell. | 02:55 |
| mubu | Dr_Willis, Ill tell you why, porn mode baby! haha just half-kidding | 02:55 |
| coleys | Yeah, I don't really care about most bleeding edge of firefox, does the same thing =P | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | lwells: thats what im hearing. | 02:55 |
| zaltekk | i can with windows. i haven't tried it in linux | 02:55 |
| Pici | lwells: no. Its the final version. | 02:55 |
| Pici | !ff35 | 02:55 |
| ubottu | Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 02:55 |
| Hilikus | lwells: its not in beta | 02:56 |
| th0r | Dr_Willis: ff35 is much faster than 3.0 in rendering pages | 02:56 |
| Dr_Willis | m4rt11: so you have somehow lost a few 100gb of data? | 02:56 |
| * Dr_Willis wonders how one actually benchmarks browser speeds... | 02:56 | |
| m4rt11 | Dr_Willis: excatly | 02:56 |
| lwells | Hilikus: But you cant just upgrade it | 02:56 |
| coleys | Firefox 3.0.1 goes plenty fast enough =P | 02:56 |
| th0r | Dr_Willis: by how long it takes to load /. | 02:57 |
| Dr_Willis | m4rt11: you dont have more then 1 partition do you? This was a drive used on an apple machine? | 02:57 |
| Hilikus | lwells: for them technically it's not an upgrade. its a new release | 02:57 |
| Hilikus | so you have both in tandem | 02:57 |
| m4rt11 | no there is no other partition on this, also it was used on an apple machine | 02:57 |
| coleys | Hilikus: Refering to us =o? | 02:57 |
| lwells | Hilikus: On my Mac it is an upgrade, it is just so confusing | 02:57 |
| audiotopie | hello | 02:57 |
| Mike^ | hi, getting Launch helper exited with unknown return code 1 when trying to update packages, anyone ever see this? | 02:57 |
| coleys | !hi | 02:57 |
| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 02:57 |
| Hilikus | lwells: it is confusing and i'm not very happy with ubuntu's decision, but there's nothing we can do | 02:58 |
| lwells | Hilikus: So that is not going to change in the future? | 02:58 |
| fission6 | i am having trouble loading the .iso i downloaded http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ | 02:58 |
| fission6 | mount keeps failing in windows | 02:58 |
| m4rt11 | Dr_Willis: no other partition on this and it was used on an apple machine but it cannot mount on it, but it so happened to mount on my ubuntu box | 02:58 |
| coleys | fission6: Have you verified its integrity using md5sum? | 02:58 |
| Hilikus | it will, in koala it will be the default one | 02:58 |
| lwells | Koala? | 02:58 |
| Hilikus | they only upgrade major releases in new releases of ubuntu | 02:59 |
| fission6 | no | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | m4rt11: sounds like some filesystem curruption going on. It may be safest to check wht the mac peoples on what filesystem repair tools they have. | 02:59 |
| coleys | Koala is next version? | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | !koala | 02:59 |
| ubottu | Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 02:59 |
| coleys | Ahh. | 02:59 |
| m4rt11 | Dr_Willis: can you direct me to a good irc help chat? | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | m4rt11: not really.. try #osx or #apple (i am just guessing) | 02:59 |
| Hilikus | where do i permanently change mysqld niceness? | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | m4rt11: i have very little love for apple. | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 03:00 |
| coleys | Dr_Willis: =D | 03:00 |
| coleys | You make me feel good about not buying one +D | 03:00 |

| InFeCtOrS | speak spanish ? | 03:02 |
| SpacePigeon | hi, does anybody know about an application like unetbootin but that is not so slow? | 03:02 |
| Kalmi | !spaish | InFeCtOrS | 03:03 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about spaish | 03:03 |
| SpacePigeon | !es | InFeCtOrS | 03:03 |
| ubottu | InFeCtOrS: 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. | 03:03 |
| Kalmi | !spanish | InFeCtOrS | 03:03 |
| Dr_Willis | SpacePigeon: pendrivelinux.com has guides on making bootable flash drives from iso's | 03:03 |
| sivel27 | this is driving me crazy.... im on jaunty, and everything runs beautifully up until today, when all of my window decorations disappeared. not allowing me to move them nor minimize them. i dont run any desktop effects, and my video is builtin intel g33 | 03:03 |
| SpacePigeon | Dr_Willis, but for windows? | 03:03 |
| Dr_Willis | SpacePigeon: i found unetbootin rather speedy. Expecially when compared to the usb-drive-creator tool in ubuntu | 03:03 |
| InFeCtOrS | thanks | 03:03 |
| Dr_Willis | SpacePigeon: check the url.. it has tutorial for window and linux | 03:03 |
| Dr_Willis | SpacePigeon: it took longer to copy over the 'persistant save file' then it todo the 'install' to the flash drive. | 03:04 |
| Kalmi | sivel27, could you try starting metacity from a terminal? | 03:04 |
| sivel27 | one sec. lemme boot up | 03:04 |
| fireun | I cant believe Jaunty broke my printer support - I swear I'm installing redhat next time | 03:07 |
| sivel27 | hmm, from the term, how do i start metacity? | 03:09 |
| Kalmi | sivel27, metacity | 03:09 |
| Kalmi | :) | 03:09 |
| sivel27 | hmm, not installed | 03:09 |
| Kalmi | hmm | 03:10 |
| sivel27 | unable to open x display | 03:10 |
| duckwars | is there anyway to get an external USB hard drive to always come up as sdc2 or something after every reboot? | 03:10 |
| th0r | sivel27: what window manager is running? | 03:11 |
| sivel27 | gnome | 03:11 |
| TwoToneSpirit | !pysqlite | 03:11 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about pysqlite | 03:11 |
| moymoy | duckwars: it depends how many devices you have plugged in | 03:11 |
| th0r | sivel27: no...wiindow manager...compiz, metacity, ? | 03:12 |
| duckwars | I have 2 devices plugged into 2 seperate USB ports, they aren't splitting a USB port | 03:12 |
| th0r | sivel27: you should be able to find it in the process list (ps ax) | 03:12 |
| moymoy | duckwars: they're still devices plugged in | 03:12 |
| sivel27 | i just had a random reboot...when i look in | 03:13 |
| duckwars | yea | 03:13 |
| Kalmi | duckwars, why do you need this? you could use guids in fstab | 03:13 |
| moymoy | duckwars: i'm guessing you have 2 harddrives and 2 USB's plugged in? | 03:14 |
| sivel27 | the bootup is raking FOREVER | 03:14 |
| sivel27 | taking | 03:14 |
| duckwars | right, in my fstab I have to say /dev/sdd2 ~/Harddrive | 03:14 |
| zaltekk | sivel27: your file systems are being checked for errors | 03:14 |
| djlenoir | back on my netbook this time. no video after installing nvidia graphics adapter without removing ati binary drivers. have removed the binary drivers now but no video. ubuntu is loading (i think) but the screen stays blank. | 03:14 |
| zaltekk | this is normal | 03:14 |
| djlenoir | at netroot right now | 03:15 |
| zaltekk | djlenoir: try removing all of the binary drivers and then reinstall the nvidia ones | 03:15 |
| duckwars | but the problem is, whenever the computer reboots each hard drive is given a differnt /dev/sd(letter)(#) | 03:15 |
| zaltekk | duckwars: use the guids in the fstab as Kalmi said | 03:16 |
| djlenoir | zaltekk: is there a cmd to remove all binary drivers? | 03:16 |
| zaltekk | then they won't change anymore | 03:16 |
| Kalmi | !fstab > duckwars | 03:16 |
| ubottu | duckwars, please see my private message | 03:16 |
| moymoy | duckwars: No, they don't change on reboot.. i've never seen it change on reboot | 03:16 |
| djlenoir | zaltekk: did purge fglrx already | 03:16 |
| zaltekk | djlenoir: you'll need to use a package management tool to remove them | 03:16 |
| Kalmi | zaltekk, zaltekk: sorry... they are called UUID and not guid | 03:16 |
| duckwars | oh.... | 03:17 |
| zaltekk | Kalmi: ah, well, similar term :P | 03:17 |
| sivel27 | hmm... as far as i can tell, its gnome | 03:17 |
| sivel27 | lemme check again | 03:17 |
| djlenoir | man, i wish there was just a boot to vga mode with ubuntu... like when it first loads | 03:17 |
| zaltekk | djlenoir: uninstall the binary ati drivers and the binary nvidia drivers | 03:18 |
| th0r | sivel27: you can't run metacity if, for instance, compiz is running. If metacity is running, and you WANT metacity, you can restart it by just killing it, it should restart automatically. | 03:18 |
| zaltekk | then install the nvidia ones again | 03:18 |
| djlenoir | zaltekk: i will google how to do that | 03:18 |
| th0r | sivel27: if you don't see either compiz or metacity in the ps ax list, try running metacity with sudo | 03:19 |
| OttifantSir | djlenoir: there is a "safe graphics" mode on start-up. Google that too, I don't remember how to enable it right now | 03:19 |
| djlenoir | OttifantSir: thanks, will google that also | 03:19 |
| Kalmi | th0r, he got no window decorations | 03:19 |
| sivel27 | yup, that fixed it! thanks, now how do i add it to startup like that? | 03:20 |
| th0r | Kalmi: right, either he isn't running a window manager or the one he is running is corrupted somehow | 03:20 |

| DecioGaeta | Hey everyone. I had a quick question. I would like to install Ubuntu on an older mac laptop (an iBook G4). Which version of Ubuntu is best to install? | 03:31 |
| OttifantSir | twois10: Yes, much better question. | 03:31 |
| sebsebseb | DecioGaeta: YellowDog Linux maybe, Ubuntu maybe, and so it goeso n | 03:32 |
| Kalmi | Guiri, Chromium is an open source browser project. Google Chrome is a browser from Google, based on the Chromium project.This is a build of Chromium. No versions of Google Chrome for Linux will exist until Google makes an official release. | 03:32 |
| KR8L | causasui: Think I had this happen once. Details of the error msg said to reinstall, I did, it worked. | 03:32 |
| th0r | DecioGaeta: on older hw you might want to consider xubuntu | 03:32 |
| causasui | KR8L: The error tells me to "install a kernel module" | 03:32 |
| sebsebseb | DecioGaeta: how much RAM? | 03:32 |
| DecioGaeta | xubuntu? | 03:32 |
| DecioGaeta | and 512 MB of RAM. | 03:32 |

| sebsebseb | DecioGaeta: ok you don't need Xubuntu and that's just a cut down version of Gnome anyway pretty much | 03:33 |
| th0r | DecioGaeta: ubuntu with xfce instead of gnome or kde | 03:33 |

| DecioGaeta | Thank in advance everyone. | 03:33 |
| sebsebseb | th0r: DecioGaeta for less than 512MB RAM, or less than 256MB RAM, I would say Puppy Linux | 03:33 |
| CorpX | does ubuntu come with an ftp program by default? | 03:33 |
| Mike_lifeguard | What's the package for epiphany called? | 03:33 |
| DecioGaeta | I'm just curious which versions/releases would be best as well. | 03:33 |
| DecioGaeta | Does it matter? | 03:33 |
| sebsebseb | th0r DecioGaeta less than 256MB RAM, and Puppy Linux ype | 03:34 |
| Kalmi | Mike_lifeguard, epiphany-browser | 03:34 |
| DecioGaeta | Cause the distro has to be compatible with the chipset, correct? | 03:34 |
| sebsebseb | DecioGaeta: there is no such thing as a best Linux distribution | 03:34 |

| duckwars | how can I, from terminal, make the gui startup? | 03:36 |
| OttifantSir | DecioGaeta: Compare it with cars. Which is the "best" car? I love the '74 Carrera Slant Nose, someone loves the Hummer, someone the Suburban, someone the Smart, and so on and so on. The "best" would be the car that fills your need and driving habits. As such, there is no ONE "best" car, but MANY "best car". | 03:36 |
| zaltekk | does the ubuntu desktop kernel have different patches than the server kernel? maybe preemption is different? | 03:36 |
| zaltekk | duckwars: type startx | 03:36 |
| duckwars | thing is, I'm remotely logged in, and I need it to actually put the desktop image on the monitor | 03:37 |
| sebsebseb | zaltekk: I don't know, but the server kernel is better for servers, such like the netbook one is better for netbooks, and just like the desktop one is better for desktops | 03:37 |
| duckwars | just runnign startx doesn't do that | 03:37 |
| thatscottfoster | well i installed the new version of ubuntu about an hour ago and ran all of the updates and towars the end of the list the cpu restarted and now i am at the command screenand it will not start up | 03:37 |
| sebsebseb | zaltekk: Desktop Linux as they call it being both desktops and lap tops that aren't netbooks | 03:37 |
| macman_ | whats a good hosting site .. im about to delete this windows but i have to backup some files | 03:37 |
| zaltekk | macman_: if you want a _real_ hosting site, try nearlyfrespeech.net | 03:38 |
| zaltekk | it is very cheap(cost-wise) | 03:38 |
| th0r | duckwars: you need to use a vncserver, did you install one? | 03:38 |
| sebsebseb | zaltekk: such like, just like, above | 03:38 |
| zaltekk | duckwars: you aren't going to be able to do that via ssh unless you have an X server on the ssh-client's system | 03:38 |
| macman_ | free hosting | 03:38 |
| zaltekk | sebsebseb: that oesn't tell me much.. | 03:38 |
| mazda01 | anyone use tovid? | 03:38 |
| blackest_knight | sebsebseb: i wouldnt agree netbook kernels are not necessarilly good for netbooks especially if you use reiserfs for example | 03:38 |
| duckwars | th0r: that's the thing, I want to be able to start a vncviewer so I can control the desktop, but it won't let me unless the actually desktop is showing on the realy physical monitor | 03:39 |
| zaltekk | macman_: you could always use rapidshare or such | 03:39 |
| mazda01 | i am getting an error that it can't find encded.mpg. | 03:39 |
| twois10 | anyone able to compile ati drivers, fglrx with kernel 2.6.30 yet? | 03:39 |
| sebsebseb | blackest_knight: right well I don't have a netbook, but what I do know is that hardly anyone uses that file system on a netbook | 03:39 |
| macman_ | zaltekk im about to wipe windows .. i jsut want to upload 5 files that are zipped so when i wipe i can go to the website and just retrive them | 03:39 |
| th0r | duckwars: you start the vncserver on the remote machine with 'vncserver:1' and then you should be able to get in on port 5801 or 5901 | 03:39 |
| blackest_knight | duckwars: use ssh duckwars@yourserver -X | 03:39 |
| bazhang | macman_, how does this relate to Ubuntu | 03:40 |
| macman_ | bazhang im going to put ubuntu onto this computer | 03:40 |
| djlenoir | ok, i think i removed all the binary drivers but i think my xorg.conf file is not right. my vdieo card is seen as device0 and driver was nvidia but i manually changed it to nv. still did not help though. | 03:40 |
| macman_ | i want to backup whats on there right now | 03:40 |
| th0r | blackest_knight: can you fetch the entire desktop via X forwarding? I only used it for individual windows | 03:40 |
| blackest_knight | sebsebseb: I do i also use nano which someone thought was good to drop from netbook version as wel | 03:40 |
| bazhang | macman_, that is offtopic here. please ask elsewhere | 03:40 |
| sebsebseb | blackest_knight: really it's not in the netbook version | 03:40 |
| sebsebseb | ? | 03:41 |
| djlenoir | is there a way to manually create xorg.conf file? | 03:41 |
| Devon_C | hey guys, I'm having some trouble with opening my ports and Transmission. I went into my router configuration using my default IP in my browser and opened both the listening port and the browsing port but it still says its closed. is there anything else I have to do? | 03:41 |
| zaltekk | macman_: again, you could use rapidshare. | 03:41 |
| tech0007 | macman_: www.adrive.com | 03:42 |
| sebsebseb | blackest_knight: well I used to use shut down and log out in the system menu, really happily since the second release of Ubuntu in 2005, but also in Fedora Core 2 and 4 in 2004, but then they thought it would be a great idea to remove those and have only the thing on the top right of the panel | 03:42 |
| blackest_knight | sebsebseb: it was dropped out the version i tried i just use std desktop ubuntu now , just like i used on my 1.4 celeron laptop with 756meg , on my 1.6 1.5 gig netbook | 03:42 |
| Jeruvy | thatscottfoster: did you upgrade from command line, or did you reinstall? Can you explain more detail? What error is showing when it didn't start properly? | 03:43 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, did you remove the nvidia driver? | 03:43 |
| sebsebseb | blackest_knight: nano dropped in netbook version that's a bit odd I think, since it's just a command line app | 03:43 |
| zaltekk | djlenoir: you probably want to create the xorg.conf file by running "X -configure" as root | 03:44 |
| djlenoir | i think i did, i ran sudo apt-get remove fglrx | 03:44 |
| zaltekk | fglrx is not the nvidia driver | 03:44 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, that is for ati what video card do you have | 03:44 |
| blackest_knight | sebsebseb: it was just an apt-get away but the reiserfs support that needed a new kernel | 03:44 |
| histo | is there a way to restart the sound system? | 03:44 |
| histo | Or do I have to restart X | 03:44 |
| zaltekk | ctmjr: i believe he just changed out with ati card for an nvidia card. he said that he installed the nvidia binary drivers without first removing the ati binary drivers, and is having problems getting X started | 03:45 |
| zaltekk | what he needs to do is remove both and then reinstall the nvidia ones | 03:45 |
| Kalmi | histo, kill pulseaudio and than start it in a terminal | 03:45 |
| Kalmi | *then | 03:45 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: i have an nvidia card now. i originally had an ati card and did not remove the binary drivers first. thought that cmd removed them manually. | 03:45 |
| ctmjr | zaltekk, ouch yes i believe your correct | 03:46 |
| sephy | Do I need a special lib or something to open split rar files? | 03:46 |
| hermano__ | alguem aqui de joao pessoa? | 03:46 |
| sebsebseb | !es Z| hermano__ | 03:47 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about es Z | 03:47 |
| sephy | Everytime I open a rar file it'll extract for awhile | 03:47 |
| sephy | then fails | 03:47 |
| sebsebseb | !es | hermano__ | 03:47 |
| ubottu | hermano__: 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. | 03:47 |
| sephy | and I've downloaded the files 2 times now | 03:47 |
| djlenoir | ii was using nano to look at my xorg.conf file and i don't think it is right. | 03:47 |
| hermano__ | alguem aqui fala portugues? | 03:47 |
| sebsebseb | !pr | hermano__ | 03:47 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about pr | 03:47 |
| hermano__ | brasil | 03:47 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, how did you install the ati driver and the nvidia driver | 03:47 |
| Jeruvy | sephy: no, what failure? | 03:47 |
| zaltekk | djlenoir: did you generate one with "X -configure"? | 03:47 |
| sebsebseb | !br | hermano__ | 03:47 |
| ubottu | hermano__: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 03:47 |
| jared__ | When I type: mysql -u root into terminal i get this error: "Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) | 03:47 |
| hermano__ | !br | 03:48 |
| sephy | It's always a CRC failure, Jeruvy | 03:48 |
| hermano__ | #ubuntu-br | 03:48 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: downloading the ati file from ati.amd.com and running it basically. | 03:48 |
| histo | Kalmi: pulseaudio isn't runnning and there is no pulseaudio | 03:48 |
| Jeruvy | sephy: then something is happening to the file during download that is corrupting them. the only option is to delete and try again | 03:48 |
| hermano__ | como entro no canal brasileiro | 03:48 |
| sephy | GAH | 03:48 |
| sephy | ok | 03:48 |
| zaltekk | sephy: if you have a split rar and try to extract just one part of the split, you will get CRC errors on the files that spand past the beginning or ending of the split file | 03:48 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: downloading the ati file from ati.amd.com and running it basically./ | 03:48 |
| Jeruvy | sephy: or the rar is corrupt to begin with | 03:48 |
| Kalmi | histo, what are you trying to restart than? | 03:48 |
| OttifantSir | sephy: Is it rar-files with extensions like .part1, .part2, etc? If so, there's usually one with an extension of .rar you should open and extract from, then it will do the the rest as follows | 03:49 |
| sephy | then how can I extract them both so i dont get the crc failed.. | 03:49 |
| djlenoir | zaltekk: you mean running sudo dpkg-config xserver-xorg? | 03:49 |
| Kalmi | histo, restarting X won't restart ALSA | 03:49 |
| histo | Kalmi: I'm trying to get my sound working again with out restarting the whole machine. | 03:49 |
| zaltekk | no djlenoir | 03:49 |
| zaltekk | i mean to run | 03:49 |
| zaltekk | X -configure | 03:49 |
| SpacePigeon | hi | 03:49 |
| m0u5e | hey guys, how do I install only one package from ubuntu proposed (ff3.5) | 03:49 |
| Kalmi | histo, try this: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart | 03:50 |
| zaltekk | stop your X server, and run that command as root | 03:50 |
| SpacePigeon | how do i mount a drive forcing it to be read-write instead of read-only? I can see no switch on the drive to choose between | 03:50 |
| sephy | s0325.part1of2.rar and s0325.part2of2.rar | 03:50 |
| m0u5e | i don't want to enable the entire repos, only install firefox3.5 | 03:50 |
| djlenoir | zaltekk: trying that now | 03:50 |
| Jeruvy | sephy: the compress tool is smart enough to seek out the proper files, so the error is telling you something is missing | 03:50 |
| th0r | m0u5e: via synaptic | 03:50 |
| Dulak | enabled the repo, install the package, disable the repot | 03:50 |
| zaltekk | sephy: usually split rars are named .rar and .rXX | 03:50 |
| Dulak | repo even | 03:50 |
| m0u5e | th0r: but wont i have to enable to repository? | 03:50 |
| tsimpson | m0u5e: enable it, install the package, then disable the repo | 03:50 |
| m0u5e | tsimpson: theres no easy way? like downloading the package from the web? | 03:50 |
| th0r | m0u5e: yup, proposed | 03:50 |
| histo | Kalmi: thanks worked like a chram. | 03:51 |
| histo | charm | 03:51 |
| sephy | Im way annoyyed... It's 1.1gb and I've downloaded it twice | 03:51 |
| sephy | to try and fix it | 03:51 |
| m0u5e | th0r do you know the url? | 03:51 |
| tsimpson | m0u5e: not unless you want to resolve all the dependencies manually | 03:51 |
| zaltekk | sephy: rename them properly | 03:51 |
| Jeruvy | sephy: been there. Best to try a different source. | 03:51 |
| zaltekk | if it is a real split archive, it won't be detected in that way | 03:51 |
| th0r | m0u5e: proposed is in the list in synaptic if i remember right | 03:51 |
| djlenoir | zaltekk: it ran and i ran X using the .new file that was created. now i have a blinking cursor in top left corner. | 03:51 |
| sephy | how exactly should I rename them? | 03:51 |
| zaltekk | okay. just press Ctrl+Alt+BackSpace | 03:51 |
| zaltekk | then type mv /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:52 |
| OttifantSir | sephy: The first one should be .rar , the second one should be .r01 | 03:52 |
| zaltekk | then as a normal user type startx | 03:52 |
| jared__ | Hey guys, I'm getting an error when I type: mysql -u root into terminal, the error reads: ERROR 1045 (2800): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) | 03:52 |
| djlenoir | zaltekk: ok will do that | 03:52 |
| sephy | ok. ill try this | 03:52 |
| Kalmi | !dontzap | 03:52 |
| ubottu | To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 03:52 |
| th0r | m0u5e: look under updates in synaptic | 03:52 |
| paul____ | hello | 03:52 |
| paul____ | I have a problem... | 03:52 |
| m0u5e | th0r: list? | 03:53 |
| zaltekk | sephy: like OttifantSir said. and with the name before the .rar and .rXX being the same | 03:53 |
| zaltekk | as in a.rar and a.r01 | 03:53 |
| OttifantSir | !ask | paul____ | 03:53 |
| ubottu | paul____: 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. :-) | 03:53 |
| m0u5e | th0r: do i need to enable jaunty-proposed to do this? | 03:53 |
| sephy | extracting... -crosses fingers- | 03:53 |
| th0r | m0u5e: I think that is where it is.... | 03:54 |
| ctmjr | zaltekk, if he installed the drivers from the ati web site he needs to uninstall them with their uninstall script | 03:54 |
| th0r | !ff35 | 03:54 |
| ubottu | Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 03:54 |
| paul____ | oh okay sorry I'm not getting audio on crunchbang linux. I know it's not exactly ubuntu but it's based on ubuntu so I'm wondering if you guys could help me out | 03:54 |
| jared__ | Hey is there another channel to get help with Ubuntu I don't think anyone here knows the answer to my question. | 03:54 |
| mothdragon | hey guys, can anyone tell me what the white x on an icon in the file browser mean? | 03:54 |
| zaltekk | ctmjr: correct. the package management tools will only remove pacakges they installed | 03:54 |
| bazhang | paul____, you should ask in crunchbang channels or forums | 03:54 |

| bazhang | jared__, what question | 03:55 |
| paul____ | alrighty then. | 03:55 |
| ctmjr | zaltekk, i must have joined in the middle of you helping him sorry | 03:56 |
| zaltekk | ctmjr: i told him in general what to do, and i think he tried something and then came back. | 03:56 |
| jared__ | Bazhang, when I type "mysql -u root" into terminal. I get the following error: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) | 03:56 |
| djlenoir | ok, did that and rebooted but it looks like black screen still. i appreciate the help you guys are giving me. wife needs me now, bbiab | 03:56 |
| jared__ | I am relatively certain that for whatever reason, it's letting me sudo as root without a password | 03:56 |
| gartral | Galeon, Kazehakase, Firefox, and Seamonkey all crash after an hour or so... and its anying >.< | 03:56 |
| jared__ | and this is causing me to not have access | 03:56 |
| m0u5e | hmm so firefox 3.5 isn't even in jaunty-proposed | 03:57 |
| jared__ | I need to be able to put my password in for my temporary root session instead having it just let me do it with no password | 03:57 |
| ARMENIAN1 | when i run airoscript it tells me that airodump isn't available even though i installed aircrack-ng | 03:57 |
| zaltekk | jared__: i think ubuntu disables the root account and as such doesn't have a password for root. although i'm not 100% sure what they actually do. | 03:57 |
| Kalmi | !root | 03:57 |
| ubottu | 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 | 03:57 |
| jared__ | I currently do have a password set so I don't know how it's even possible that it's bypassing the need of a password when i type "sudo -i", it used to require one | 03:57 |
| zaltekk | you might want to google how to fix the root account and see if that fixes your problem | 03:57 |
| jared__ | Well earlier when I did it (like earlier today) | 03:58 |
| zaltekk | jared__: that is controlled by the sudoers file | 03:58 |
| jared__ | it did require a password | 03:58 |
| Kalmi | jared__, what you are lookijng for is "sudo -s" | 03:58 |
| tsimpson | sudo -i and sudo -s are similar in function | 03:58 |
| zaltekk | it determines if you need an sudo password, if that password is the root password or your user password, and for how long you can go without having to retype the password | 03:58 |
| sephy | Wow.... | 03:58 |
| sephy | Ok, so all those time it fails | 03:59 |
| sephy | to I install winrar under wine | 03:59 |
| sephy | and it extracted just fine | 03:59 |
| poseidon | I can't seem to get the wireless card to work | 03:59 |
| Jeruvy | !enter | sephy | 03:59 |
| ubottu | sephy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 03:59 |
| zaltekk | sephy: there is a rar program for linux from rarsoft(who makes winrar) | 03:59 |
| jared__ | would the fact that i don't currently need to type the password matter | 03:59 |
| poseidon | It's a d-link dwa-130 | 03:59 |
| jared__ | as far as access goes | 03:59 |
| zaltekk | jared__: that would depend on _why_ you don't have to type in the password | 03:59 |
| jared__ | I don't understand why I am denied access as 'root'@'localhost' I mean it seems like i should have the privelages | 03:59 |
| zaltekk | didn't it tell you the password was the reason? | 04:00 |
| djlenoir | ok, did that and rebooted but it looks like black screen still. i appreciate the help you guys are giving me. wife needs me now :P | 04:00 |
| jared__ | That's my opinion of the error message | 04:00 |
| OttifantSir | Strange. I have had problems with files in WinRAR, but they've opened in archive-manager | 04:00 |
| djlenoir | darn this netbook can be irritating at times... weird key layout | 04:00 |
| Mike_lifeguard | jared__: also, if you provide a password for sudo/gksudo, it will remember it for a time - that's configurable somehow | 04:01 |
| Kalmi | jared_: google: mysql ubuntu root password | 04:01 |
| djlenoir | meant to say back, didn't want to irritate the wife because i would never get my video fixed | 04:01 |
| poseidon | Does anyone know of a way I could get my wireless card to work? | 04:01 |
| Jeruvy | !wifi | poseidon | 04:02 |
| ubottu | poseidon: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 04:02 |
| TheNewGuy1 | I am using the latest ubutu, how can I tell how much hard drive space I have left on my linux partition? | 04:02 |
| n8tuser | fdisk -l | 04:02 |
| blackest_knight | poseidon: ndiswrapper madwifi ect | 04:02 |
| OttifantSir | TheNewGuy1: Open your home folder and look at the lower status line. Usually says how much space is left | 04:03 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: i saw you mention that i needed to remove the ati drivers. can that be done from a command prompt or is the purge fglrx enough? | 04:03 |
| gartral | TheNewGuy1: fdisk -l (thats an L) or just open your Home dir and check the status bar at the bottom of nautilus | 04:03 |
| TheNewGuy1 | What is fdisk-L? | 04:03 |
| TheNewGuy1 | do I type that in terminal? | 04:03 |
| KB1JWQ | TheNewGuy1: Depends upon what you're attempting to destroy. :) | 04:04 |
| deww | fdisk -l, not fdisk-L | 04:04 |
| gartral | TheNewGuy1: fdis -l (case sensative) is a command to put into terminal the reports trhe free space availible on your partitions | 04:04 |
| TheNewGuy1 | =-O | 04:04 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, no not if you installed from the ati web site you need to cd /user/share/ati then sudo sh ./fglrx-uninstall.sh | 04:04 |
| === slaytani1 is now known as slaytanic | ||
| === redsoxking is now known as Mr | ||
| TheNewGuy1 | UM.... fdisk in windows formats the drive... you guys messing with me? :-( | 04:05 |
| OttifantSir | TheNewGuy1: Just open Places -> Homefolder and check the status line at the bottom | 04:05 |
| === Mr is now known as redsoxking | ||
| TheNewGuy1 | ok, so fdisk-l will reformat the disk? | 04:06 |
| OttifantSir | No | 04:06 |
| === w4ett-AWAY is now known as El_Presidente | ||
| === El_Presidente is now known as w4ett | ||
| mazda01 | gartral, it's sudo fdisk -l. and it shows you the partition table. df -h will show you free space. | 04:06 |
| OttifantSir | TheNewGuy1: It will list your drives and partitions. Open Places -> Homefolder and check the status line at the bottom of the windows | 04:07 |
| mazda01 | TheNewGuy1, no i wont | 04:07 |
| mazda01 | TheNewGuy1, it won't. | 04:07 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: hmm, so this is why open source is preferred :P | 04:07 |
| TheNewGuy1 | ok, thnaks... I guess | 04:07 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, did you remove it? | 04:08 |
| jared__ | Just so you guys know the solution to my error issue is to tyoe mysql - u root -p to force a prompt for a password | 04:08 |
| djlenoir | working on it now | 04:08 |
| Kalmi | jared__, yes | 04:08 |
| digitalfiz | whats a good webcam monitoring program? I tried to use cheese to basically monitor but it freezes the camera after awhile | 04:09 |
| Jeruvy | TheNewGuy1: 'df' will show free space.. | 04:09 |
| digitalfiz | one with a gui and alerts or something | 04:09 |
| TheNewGuy1 | next question. I need to run - cough, joke, cough - internet explorer.... man I hate saying that... but I gotta run it for a specific website. How can I do that with linux? | 04:09 |
| Jeruvy | !wine | TheNewGuy1 | 04:09 |
| ubottu | TheNewGuy1: 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 | 04:09 |

| felix_ | how to see a full list of channels starting by 'h'? | 04:10 |
| Kalmi | jared__, read that "Note" part too | 04:11 |
| Jeruvy | digitalfiz: I haven't seen anything worthwhile yet, but if you dig up something let me know. | 04:11 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, ok did you install any nvidia drivers and if so how? | 04:11 |
| kitche | !ies4linux | TheNewGuy1 | 04:11 |
| ubottu | TheNewGuy1: ies4linux is a script that quickly and effortlessly helps you install 3 versions of IE in Wine. 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! Use Firefox! | 04:11 |
| TheNewGuy1 | Thanks jeruvy... don't mind If I do... have some wine. ... its been a hard day I need something stronger.. but after I get my browser going. | 04:11 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: no, i have not installed any nvidia drivers | 04:11 |
| jared__ | Thanks for the help Kalmi and others. | 04:12 |

| ctmjr | djlenoir, ok run this in terminal then reboot the computer sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg make sure you reboot and not just restart X | 04:13 |
| digitalfiz | err i ment Jeruvy lol | 04:13 |
| felix_ | mubu, you only have to install a freh ubuntu/debian system, then install apps, then run remastersys. then you got a bootable and installable iso | 04:13 |
| duckwars | anyone familiar with x11vnc? | 04:13 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: ok ran successfully, rebooting now... and crossing fingers | 04:14 |
| felix_ | mubu, i dont know reconstructor, but i have been long time trying to do a linux system and im sure it fix your needs | 04:14 |
| mubu | felix_, Thanks, i might try bothç | 04:14 |
| bazhang | felix_, install from where? uck is in the repos | 04:14 |
| AncientSocrates | hello wrong channel but more people. Does anyone use win7 on a laptop? my subwoofer has no sound | 04:14 |
| felix_ | mubu, you can trye gnewsense builder too #gnewsense | 04:14 |
| bazhang | AncientSocrates, ##windows | 04:14 |
| bazhang | felix_, please recommend Ubuntu solutions first | 04:15 |

| Jeruvy | djlenoir: ya, I haven't found anything I can say isn't crap atm...sorry. | 04:16 |
| felix_ | bazhang, mubu http://www.geekconnection.org/remastersys/remastersystool.html | 04:16 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: oh man, it sort of worked... i actually saw the screen for a moment, then got this message "Your sessions only lasted less than 20 seconds. If you have not logged out yourself, this could mean that there is some installation problem or that you may be out of disk space. Try logging in with one of the failsafe sessions to see if you can fix this problem." | 04:16 |
| felix_ | it is a ubuntu solution, but its not in the repo | 04:16 |
| bazhang | felix_, that is not necessary. Ubuntu has remastering tools in the repos | 04:16 |
| felix_ | oh, didnt know | 04:16 |

| TheNewGuy1 | downloading win via synaptic and drinking a nice cheap but very tasty cab. Thanks for the help. | 04:18 |
| kyja | what directory is java installed? | 04:18 |
| johnjay | how do I tell apt to not upgrade/install a version of a package? IE don't install any xorg greater than 7.0.11 | 04:18 |
| johnjay | kyja: /usr/lib/java | 04:18 |
| Jeruvy | TheNewGuy1: cheers :) | 04:18 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, do you have a login screen or does it login automatically? | 04:18 |
| TheNewGuy1 | I meant to say that I am down loading wine. | 04:18 |
| trevor | I know this is going to be a stupid question, but I'm having some difficulty locating a package. It contained a small wallpaper switching app for a minimal system. I believe that the name was an element... Can anyone help me out? | 04:18 |
| kyja | thank you johnjay | 04:18 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: i have a login screen | 04:18 |
| anomoly | I'm attempting to run an .exe in wine, and I'm getting "Unable to find a volume for file extraction. Please verify that you have the proper permissions" | 04:19 |
| OttifantSir | johnjay: right-click the package and mark lock version | 04:19 |
| trevor | Kinda like hsetroot, or wallp | 04:19 |
| anomoly | .wine and all recursive directories are owned by me | 04:19 |
| TheNewGuy1 | thanks jeruvy, you kitchen and gartral rock! | 04:19 |
| OttifantSir | johnjay: or for force version if it's already installed a higher version, and choose the one you want | 04:19 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, there should be a option or session tab look for failsafe gnome and see if that works | 04:20 |
| gartral | anomoly: is your disk full? | 04:20 |
| === hunt_ is now known as huntxu | ||
| OttifantSir | johnjay: Ooopppsss... That's Synaptic, not apt directly | 04:20 |
| trevor | anomoly, I know that WoW does that if the installer is run from the disk. Try putting the installer on the volume that you want to install to. | 04:20 |
| TheNewGuy1 | anyone hear use sea horse web browser? is it any good? better then firefox? thanks | 04:20 |
| Kalmi | anomoly, try google: Unable to find a volume for file extraction wine | 04:20 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: unfortunately, the pc was locked with that msg so i rebooted into recovery mode again | 04:20 |
| trevor | TheNewGuy1, You mean Seamonkey? | 04:20 |
| anomoly | Kalmi: I've done some searches but everything I saw just mentioned file permissions. | 04:21 |
| TheNewGuy1 | LOL... yes... sorry I am down loading Wine and I think I am getting a little tipsy. | 04:21 |
| anomoly | gartral: no, the disk isn't full | 04:21 |
| OttifantSir | anomoly: You have to configure wine | 04:21 |
| johnjay | OttifantSir: right but there must be an underlying apt aspect to it? | 04:21 |
| Jeruvy | trevor: I've found many a custom script but this is the documentation, maybe something will put you on the right path: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy | 04:22 |
| anomoly | Ottifantsir: as in run winecfg? I looked at that but didn't see any thing for permissions | 04:22 |
| TheNewGuy1 | seaMonkey | 04:22 |
| gartral | OttifantSir: not so, basic disks should be laid out by default... anomoly even with that being said, go to Applications>Wine>Configure and have a look at your Disks tab | 04:22 |
| Kalmi | anomoly, the first hit for me suggests using the latest wine (which works for him) and/or winetricks to install idunnowhat | 04:22 |
| Kalmi | anomoly, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=966848 | 04:23 |
| trevor | TheNewGuy1, Seamonkey is just the new open source version of the Mozilla suite. If you want a single application that has a web browser, email client, chat client, and web page creator, then you might want to go with it. I recommend the Beta for 2 if you can use it though, as it sports a more recent build of Gecko. | 04:23 |
| TheNewGuy1 | thanks Trev | 04:23 |
| trevor | TheNewGuy1, | 04:24 |
| TheNewGuy1 | ok, I got wine, should I manualy install it? | 04:24 |
| trevor | TheNewGuy1, You're welcome! :D | 04:24 |
| gartral | TheNewGuy1: you'll have to either add a PPA repository, or compile it yourself though | 04:24 |
| OttifantSir | johnjay: Synaptic is a graphical frontend to apt. It just seemed to me that with X in question and you asking about apt, you might be stuck in terminal, and then I couldn't have helped you. If you can get to Synaptic, that's the easiest way to do it | 04:24 |
| TheNewGuy1 | um... never compliled.. my have to save that for another day. | 04:24 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, i have had that error but it was from tweaking my window manager the wrong way, let me google and see if i can find out something | 04:24 |
| gartral | TheNewGuy1: why arent you using sudo aptitude install wine? | 04:24 |
| trevor | Jeruvy, Thanks for the link. I think that I'm skipping the part that I'm building the desktop from a CLI. I've found the package before, but cannot remember the name for the life of me... | 04:25 |
| trevor | Jeruvy, Which is silly, cause I'm 99% sure that it's the name of an element | 04:25 |
| anomoly | Kalmi: ok, I'll check out the link. I'm running the latest version but I'll take a look at winetricks | 04:25 |
| Jeruvy | trevor: I'd be glad to know also, I couldn't find anything specific unfortunately :( | 04:25 |
| TheNewGuy1 | Gartral.... um... what? I just down loaded wine via synaptic. was that wrong? | 04:25 |
| trevor | Jeruvy, Give me a few minutes, and a periodic table, and I'll come back with an answer... | 04:25 |
| djlenoir | ctmjr: thank you for your help. i don't want you to have to spend more time with me than you have already. i can just wipe and reload it to save everyone trouble. just have to reinstall a bunch of stuff. | 04:25 |
| OttifantSir | trevor: Element as in the 4 elements, or element as in the periodic table? | 04:26 |
| gartral | TheNewGuy1: ohh, no, I though you meant you downloaded the source from winehq ;) nvm me | 04:26 |
| === chakku_ is now known as ck311 | ||
| trevor | OttifantSir, Periodic Table.... Am I crazy? | 04:26 |
| TheNewGuy1 | eeeewwww that sounds messy. nope.. I a NOOB. | 04:26 |
| Jeruvy | trevor: no, there is a periodic table app called something like that iirc. | 04:26 |
| TheNewGuy1 | OK, I got WINE. down loaded... now what? | 04:27 |
| johnjay | OttifantSir: apt-get hold <pkg> | 04:27 |
| Kalmi | anomoly, by latest you mean wine-1.1.25? | 04:27 |
| trevor | Jeruvy, OttifantSir FOUND IT! Nitrogen! | 04:27 |
| gartral | TheNewGuy1: if your using synaptic, then it already installed as well | 04:27 |
| fireun | in case you all have any doubts - I've decided to downgrade to Intrepid, I've tried to get Jaunty to do just what Intrepid did, and it SUCKSASS, so screw it, back to Intrepid. | 04:27 |
| trevor | I swear, I can be an idiot sometimes! | 04:27 |
| OttifantSir | trevor: with the 4 elements it would have been easier to come up with suggestions. GOOD FOR YOU!! | 04:27 |
| gartral | trevor: welcome too the Human Condition ;) | 04:27 |
| TheNewGuy1 | cool. does it need to be configured? | 04:27 |
| ctmjr | djlenoir, it's not a problem you can reinstall if you want but i am curious as to why you get that error | 04:27 |

| gartral | TheNewGuy1: it shouldn't unless you want ies4linux, winetricks, or some other "special" function | 04:28 |
| OttifantSir | needhelp1: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 04:28 |
| TheNewGuy1 | um... what is ies4linux? and what is winetricks? | 04:28 |
| needhelp1 | OttifantSir: i installed amarok | 04:29 |
| needhelp1 | OttifantSir: that should work right? | 04:29 |
| gartral | !ies4linux | TheNewGuy1 | 04:29 |
| ubottu | TheNewGuy1: ies4linux is a script that quickly and effortlessly helps you install 3 versions of IE in Wine. 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! Use Firefox! | 04:29 |
| gartral | !winetricks | TheNewGuy1 | 04:29 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about winetricks | 04:29 |
| gartral | TheNewGuy1: winetricks is a script that automatically grabs a few redistributable packages for windows, and installs them too wine (it has been known to both add, and break functionality in the past) | 04:30 |
| trevor | Sorry about that... I'm just trying to throw together a cookbook recipe for a simple desktop starting with X and JWM, and any small applications that a user may need... | 04:30 |
| legend2440 | trevor http://www.linuxtoday.com/infrastructure/2008120303335OSDTSW | 04:31 |
| TheNewGuy1 | gart, why would I want it? | 04:31 |
| anomoly | Kalmi: no, I don't have the dev release, just the stable. | 04:31 |
| OttifantSir | needhelp1: Still doesn't have MP3-support because MP3 is a proprietary format. You need to install ubuntu-restricted-extras, or kubuntu-* or xubuntu-* depending on what you use | 04:31 |
| gartral | TheNewGuy1: winetricks allows you too run *some* games for Windows labeled games... beyond that, I've never found a viable use for it | 04:31 |
| anomoly | Kalmi: I see on that link that it looks like he got the dev. I'll have to check try that | 04:31 |
| Kalmi | anomoly, good luck, bb | 04:32 |
| TheNewGuy1 | ok, thanks.. I'll pass on that. | 04:32 |
| legend2440 | trevor: oh i see you found it already | 04:32 |
| trevor | legend2440, That's it right there! I've used it before... Had a REALLY underpowered desktop that I was using full time, so I figured out a couple of apps that are very good on very low end systems... | 04:32 |
| gartral | TheNewGuy1: ok.. so all that's left is too try out a windows based program in wine :) | 04:32 |
| TheNewGuy1 | ok, going to try ies4linux. | 04:32 |

| Hilikus | whats the most common IDE in ubuntu for c++? | 04:34 |
| OttifantSir | needhelp1: There's really nothing IN the restricted package. It's more like a script, installing the codecs for the proprietary formats. Or you could go to category5.tv and find the Perfectbuntu script under Resources -> Scripts and run that. It installs even more support. | 04:34 |

| bazhang | OttifantSir, don't offer that script as a solution in #ubuntu . Thanks. | 04:48 |
| Hilikus | bazhang: what script are you talking about??? | 04:48 |
| Guest48544 | bullgard4, :( k, thanks anyways, im just so desperate because nobody in 3 forums is answering or in irc channels | 04:48 |
| TheNewGuy1 | Specto.. that was the coolest thing ! wow, you did that fast. WOW! | 04:48 |
| bullgard4 | TheNewGuy1: No, not 'just'. You'll need to install wine. A complicated procedure. | 04:48 |
| TheNewGuy1 | i got wine, and synaptic downloaded it and installed it. | 04:49 |

| Hilikus | OttifantSir: i don't know what he's talking about | 04:49 |
| bullgard4 | Guest48544: I know this desperate feeling. It helps best that you put the question repeatedly in not too short intervals. | 04:49 |

| _ged | hi guys, i think i've asked this yesterday but i just need more clarifications before i do this stuff, the situation is i wanted to DELETE the panel (top and bottom panel)...then is there a workaround on how can i RETRIEVE it back again? | 04:51 |
| josh_93 | #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:51 |
| Jeruvy | jmoncayo: ACCEPT isn't a valid target for one, there are other errors in the iptables commands, you should look at reviewing this (whether this is ubuntu specific I'm not certain I don't play with iptables at this level). | 04:51 |
| josh_93 | :/ | 04:51 |
| rgrasell | Hilikus: ooohhh ok. thanks! | 04:51 |
| Hilikus | rgrasell: np | 04:52 |
| TheNewGuy1 | OK, I may have a simple solution. Anyone know why my nework card stopped working in windows after I installed ubutu? works fine for uutu, but will not work for windows 98 and it worked fine before I did the ubutu install. if I could fix that, i would be golden. | 04:52 |
| sebsebseb | !panels | _ged | 04:52 |
| ubottu | _ged: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 04:52 |
| lenswipe | hey guys | 04:53 |
| _ged | sebsebseb: thanks, i'll try it naw | 04:53 |
| lenswipe | does apache have execution privaliges denied by default? | 04:53 |
| Guest48544 | bullgard4, lol, k thanks, i might just do that :D | 04:53 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy1: Why are you using Windows 98, it has been years now with it not being supported by Microsoft | 04:53 |
| sebsebseb | _ged: np | 04:53 |
| bullgard4 | Guest48544: I wish you good luck. | 04:53 |
| specto | lenswipe: privaliges are delegated by the owner and access of the particular file | 04:53 |
| Guest48544 | bullgard4, thanks | 04:53 |
| TheNewGuy1 | sorry.. I have xp | 04:54 |
| lenswipe | specto, right, so how do i check if apache has exec on my /var/www | 04:54 |
| thinkertinker | is there an issue with applications not recognising internet connection that was not configured via network manager | 04:54 |
| OttifantSir | _ged: I followed what I read yesterday, and simply copy-moved gnome-panel from /usr/bin to a folder in my home-folder. If I want it back, I'll copy-move it back to /usr/bin. The lower panel is apparently as easy as right-click and add panel | 04:54 |
| linux | i recently downloaded a graphics driver card for my laptop but the download came as an rpm file how do i install that? | 04:54 |

| ubottu | lenswipe: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 04:54 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy1: possible hardware issue or something like that, Ubuntu dosn't cause things to not work in Windows | 04:54 |
| bazhang | linux, which graphic card | 04:54 |
| Hilikus | rgrasell: it's not beta | 04:54 |
| _ged | OttifantSir: ahm, how did you copied the gnome-panel?? is there a dir or folder of gnome? | 04:55 |
| Hilikus | rgrasell: that's the full release | 04:55 |

| acp_ | I'm replacing my motherboard with same model cause the 2 slot for lan is not working, I'm running raid1 and ltsp using 9.04, any unexpected issue should I be expecting? | 04:55 |
| Hilikus | rgrasell: i just said, it's not beta | 04:55 |
| alkasmolik | Guest48544, google it | 04:55 |
| TheNewGuy1 | seb I don't think that is the case. | 04:55 |
| alkasmolik | i can always google my problems | 04:55 |
| bazhang | linux, have you first checked in hardware drivers? how new is the card | 04:55 |
| rgrasell | Hilikus: why does it have beta tag? | 04:55 |
| alkasmolik | except this one!!! | 04:55 |
| Hilikus | rgrasell: where?? | 04:55 |
| Kreator | sup guys | 04:55 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy1: Ubuntu support here not Windows support, with an exception of setting up dual boots. Windows issues take them to ##windows | 04:56 |
| linux | The computer i've had a few years now | 04:56 |
| rgrasell | Hilikus: in the application menu. its called a beta. and when you run it it says beta too | 04:56 |
| Hilikus | rgrasell: did you update the repos before installing it? | 04:56 |
| Leftmost | Is it possible to do something like apt-get upgrade that will only touch packages with security updates? | 04:56 |
| OttifantSir | _ged: I did something dangerous, and used Nautilus as superuser. sudo mv /usr/bin/gnome-panel /backup/folder is preferred | 04:56 |
| TheNewGuy1 | The system is newer and worked fine until I loaded ubutu. now i cant get the net card working in windows but works fine in linux. | 04:56 |
| _ged | OttifantSir: well, just as u said, its in the /usr/bin ^_^ thanks thanks | 04:56 |
| rgrasell | Hilikus: let me check... | 04:56 |
| Hilikus | rgrasell: apt-get update | 04:56 |
| Kreator | anyone here running xubuntu 9.04?? | 04:56 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy1: I think ##windows and even ##hardware are better channels for your issue | 04:56 |
| * specto falls asleep.... zZzZzZzZ (goodnight) | 04:57 | |
| alkasmolik | Sometimes, my windows dissappear when i click on them. only way to get them back is, i change desktops, then they reappear. NOW... they are sitting there in the window, title bar JUST out of screen. i cannt click on it to move them. so i THEN have ot right click on window in "task bar" and choose move and move with keyboard until windows becomes normal again. any suggestions to fix this? try googling that!@! | 04:57 |
| TheNewGuy1 | are you telling me now one has had this problem? | 04:57 |
| bazhang | Kreator, please ask a question to the channel | 04:57 |

| Jeruvy | Guest48544: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25151 | 04:58 |
| TheNewGuy1 | i tried them, they said that since is begain when I installed ubutu it a ubutu problem. | 04:58 |
| linux | banzang: am i right to say most downloads for ubuntu are good for deb but not rpm? | 04:58 |
| alkasmolik | any takers on my problem? slight annoyance | 04:58 |
| bazhang | linux, correct. you should install from Ubuntu repositories, and not 3rd party websites. | 04:59 |
| TheNewGuy1 | :'( | 04:59 |
| rgrasell | Hilikus: its still called shiretoko. not beta though :) so its jus ta re-branding? | 04:59 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy1: I have read something about hardware and then Internet not working in Ubuntu, but working in Windows, or whatever | 04:59 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy1: ,but not the other way round | 04:59 |
| linux | banzang ok thanks i see if i can find another download in deb or something for ubuntu | 04:59 |
| bazhang | linux, how old is the card | 05:00 |
| TheNewGuy1 | yea... actually it is the other way around. | 05:00 |
| Geoffrey2 | rgrasell, i take it you're also having fun with the rather quirky FF 3.5 in the repositories | 05:00 |
| TheNewGuy1 | I saw something on it to, but can't find the post again. it was from ubutu. | 05:00 |
| Hilikus | rgrasell: you got it. it's not beta but its rebranded cause the official ff for jaunty is 3.0 | 05:00 |
| linux | banzang: maybe 5 to 10 years (i think) | 05:00 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy1: Ubuntu is just one of many Linux distributions, and for your particular issue you may even get some good help in ##linux | 05:00 |
| bazhang | linux, then the open source driver is what you need. | 05:01 |
| rgrasell | Geoffrey2: quirky? all I see is a different name :P | 05:01 |
| TheNewGuy1 | ok, thank | 05:01 |
| Hilikus | and different icon | 05:01 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy1: ok good luck | 05:01 |
| Hilikus | the icon in killing me, i keep not finding my browser | 05:01 |
| linux | bazhang thanks | 05:01 |
| michta35 | no bios incompatiblity issues known with ubuntu out there? | 05:01 |
| rgrasell | lol I know. im just gonna change the menu entry to make it the firefox icon :P | 05:01 |
| Geoffrey2 | rgrasell, my install didn't leave me with any means of launching it, i had to drop to command line and manually rebuild all the links | 05:02 |
| bazhang | linux, the proprietary driver for ati won't support that card most likely, and fglrx for ati right now is not good | 05:02 |
| Hilikus | Geoffrey2: me too, but the icon is still the weird one | 05:02 |
| rgrasell | Geoffrey2: really? mine didn't either, but when I checked the menu a few minutes later it was there as shiretoko web browser | 05:02 |
| Geoffrey2 | Hilikus, the earth instead of the familiar fox logo | 05:02 |
| Hilikus | yes | 05:03 |
| Jeruvy | michta35: well thats not a very good question. Since the kernel will be the most affected, you should look at linux for issues, ubuntu is just built on that :) | 05:03 |
| sml12261 | is there an AMD-64 version of skype? | 05:03 |
| michta35 | Every distro but debian based ones work on both the servers mobos so far | 05:03 |
| michta35 | linux mint and ubuntu get same errors | 05:03 |
| duckwars | How do I change X permissions? | 05:03 |
| robertr994 | I changed from Windows to Ubuntu this morning, at that time I didnt know about lamp. I have version 8.04LTS and have apache installed and working. What mysql package do I dl for install ? | 05:04 |
| Jeruvy | michta35: again, that doesn't mean much...if your mobo's need non debian distro's aka ubuntu then stick with them, whats the question? | 05:04 |
| Kalmi | !lamp | robertr994 | 05:05 |
| ubottu | robertr994: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 05:05 |
| robertr994 | well Im past that, installed apache already. I just need to know what format of mysql do install | 05:06 |
| robertr994 | I still dont know anything about Linux lol | 05:06 |
| Geoffrey2 | do keep in mind, LAMP is a great educational and developmental tool, but it's not really suited for a server that's going live..... | 05:06 |
| robertr994 | my server is already live | 05:07 |

| robertr994 | looking at the mysql site, Im unsure what package to install | 05:07 |
| KvnBl | s | 05:08 |
| Jeruvy | robertr994: use apt-get or synaptic to install mysql. | 05:08 |
| Deevz | how can I change the environment variables? | 05:08 |
| robertr994 | ok, but its not there.....is it?? didnt see it | 05:08 |
| Ahadiel | robertr994, apt-cache search mysql | 05:09 |
| Jeruvy | robertr994: ^^ | 05:09 |
| robertr994 | in terminal? | 05:09 |

| robertr994 | sml, sounds like a firewall or router issue | 05:10 |
| sml12261 | robertr994 opened ports and allowed it through all firewalls | 05:11 |
| Ahadiel | sml12261, Did you forward the correct ports? | 05:11 |
| Ahadiel | sml12261, check /etc/hosts.allow | 05:11 |

| blackest_knight | thinkertinker: not usually untick work offline and try again | 05:12 |
| Ahadiel | Deevz, or put it in your .bashrc | 05:12 |
| robertr994 | yes | 05:12 |

| sml12261 | I was up at 3 2 days ago | 05:12 |
| robertr994 | usually that will let you see if its a port forward or DMZ issue | 05:12 |

| robertr994 | if it works it is | 05:13 |

| skellingtonx | hi, recently ive been having trouble with ubuntu. whenever i choose it from grub bootloader, it goes to the ubuntu boot menu, loads a little, then hangs. to remedy this i created a flash drive that i thought would boot(i made a bootable flashdrive before, thats how i installed ubuntu). however, the flash drive wouldnt boot, so i formatted in and tried a different image. same story. however,... | 05:13 |
| skellingtonx | ...this time when i went to format my flash drive, i could only format it to the size of the image i had written to it. now here are my questions: does anybody have any idea as to what is going on with my computer? can i save my flashdrive? and is there any way this is the flashdrives fault? | 05:13 |
| wdyrt | thinkertinker, you must of accidently turned that option on, its in the file list near the bottem | 05:13 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, is it a laptop? | 05:14 |
| === Segnini75 is now known as jesused | ||

| wdyrt | oh, may i suggest wiping your settings? | 05:14 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, the next time you try booting it, hold down "enter" when it "freezes" | 05:14 |
| blackest_knight | thinkertinker: i'd try pinginga few places see if your really connected | 05:14 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, if that fixes it, I know what to do. | 05:15 |
| robertr994 | apt-cache search mysql worked, now how do I get the install? | 05:15 |
| OttifantSir | sml12261: This is something I pulled off a video about IPtables: Your server doesn't start with a sudo-command, so it doesn't get access to port 80 (TCP), but instead ie 8080. You need to forward incoming request to port 80 to port 8080. | 05:15 |
| Ahadiel | robertr994, sudo apt-get install package_name | 05:15 |
| skellingtonx | ok ill try it right now. ill be back to report my results. | 05:15 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, sure thing | 05:15 |

| OttifantSir | sml12261: That was an example. Your ports may be different | 05:16 |
| Ahadiel | robertr994, the first word on each line of "apt-cache search" is the package name | 05:16 |

| Hilikus | MT-: you can google that or look in /etc/services | 05:17 |
| wdyrt | it must be some setting getting left over | 05:17 |
| FSWolf | mmmm | 05:18 |
| WIGGMPk1 | jmoncayo: not to dismiss your question.. but you should check out gUFW after you clear out iptables.. Its a GUI for Uncomplicated Firewall and its very easy to use | 05:18 |
| FSWolf | im tryin to add a nother windows install to the grub bootloader file | 05:18 |

| blackest_knight | thinkertinker: could it be connecting on demand maybe | 05:19 |

| skellingtonx | ahadiel, no luck. | 05:23 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, hrm | 05:23 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, so the progress bar just freezes? | 05:23 |
| Hilikus | MustardTiger: how do you know it freezes | 05:23 |
| Ahadiel | thinkertinker, what account in pidgin isn't working? | 05:23 |
| MustardTiger | cause i left it over night | 05:23 |
| Hilikus | are you sure it's not taking its time | 05:23 |
| Hilikus | ooh | 05:23 |
| MustardTiger | 7hrs. | 05:23 |
| skellingtonx | yes, at about 7% i would say. | 05:23 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, and holding enter did nothing? | 05:24 |
| freter | anyone having yahoo messenger problems? | 05:24 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight:how to know if connection compleetly connected! from wvdial? | 05:24 |
| Hilikus | MustardTiger: did you run from a livecd? | 05:24 |
| skellingtonx | ahadiel, absolutely nothing. | 05:24 |
| thinkertinker | ahadiel:gtalk | 05:24 |
| OttifantSir | MustardTiger; That's frozen allright. | 05:24 |
| Ahadiel | thinkertinker, I'd imagine it's just gtalk that doesn't work then. | 05:24 |
| MustardTiger | I ran the installer off the CD & then restared & chose Ubuntu from load up. | 05:24 |
| Ahadiel | thinkertinker, Someone else was complaining about it not working either. | 05:24 |
| blackest_knight | thinkertinker: do you start it from terminal ? | 05:24 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, hrm | 05:24 |
| MustardTiger | It then started to install & keep stopping at 5% | 05:25 |
| duckwars | even as sudo it says Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keygiving up | 05:25 |
| skellingtonx | ahadiel, my thoughts exactly. | 05:25 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, how do you get it to boot? | 05:25 |
| skellingtonx | ahadiel, grub bootloader | 05:25 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight:yes i start wvdial from terminal | 05:25 |
| freter | ive changed my page server setting several times in the last month, keep getting it to work for a bit then it quits, any thoughs ref. kopete | 05:25 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: what system are you ssh'ing FROM? | 05:25 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, I mean, how do you get past the freezing? | 05:25 |
| blackest_knight | duckwars: google that msg | 05:25 |
| duckwars | OS x | 05:25 |
| OttifantSir | MustardTiger: Did the liveCD installer finish completely? | 05:25 |
| thinkertinker | ahadiel:it worked on my suse!! | 05:25 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, you mentioned a usb device | 05:25 |
| MustardTiger | yes. | 05:25 |
| Ahadiel | thinkertinker, check the connection settings for gtalk | 05:25 |
| Ahadiel | thinkertinker, maybe they're different | 05:26 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: i don't know if your ssh client in mac will let you, but try adding -X as an argument | 05:26 |
| blackest_knight | thinkertinker: doesnt it give you any feedback ? | 05:26 |
| Hilikus | so ssh -X <host> | 05:26 |
| robertr994 | ok, php and mysql is installed, way to easy. guess I should reboot? | 05:26 |
| skellingtonx | ahadiel, ive never had freezing before. and i wanted to use the flash drive(the same flash drive i used to install ubuntu) to reinstall ubuntu. it wouldnt boot. | 05:26 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: that should forward X | 05:26 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight:yes it shows upto my secndry dns adrress. | 05:26 |
| duckwars | i'll tell you if it works, the system is restarting now | 05:26 |
| dunham | Anybody know where i can find epiphany. I just installed it using add/remove apps, it says it's installed but it's not under app -> internet. ANybody have any clue? | 05:26 |
| freter | dunham | 05:27 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, try adding acpi=off to the end of your kernel line | 05:27 |
| freter | log out then back in | 05:27 |
| OttifantSir | robertr994: If you're finished installing and want to start them, sure. If not, then keep them stopped and keep configuring. | 05:27 |
| ctmjr | MustardTiger, sounds like you might have a bad cd try running the check cd utility at startup | 05:27 |
| dunham | gotcha | 05:27 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, when you get to grub, press "e", and add that | 05:27 |
| freter | not sure why, but works lol | 05:27 |
| mikel | hi someone can help me to do an install script to install ubuntu by the minimal cd with the command line ? | 05:27 |
| skellingtonx | what would that do exactly? | 05:27 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, disables acpi | 05:28 |
| Ahadiel | skellingtonx, that could be what's hanging it | 05:28 |
| skellingtonx | okeedokee. | 05:28 |
| blackest_knight | thinkertinker: i use dialup with phone modem aand run a script pppd call gprs often the server doesnt allocate an address and it fails but if you instlled network monitor aplet and set it to ppp0 you would see it connect and get an address | 05:28 |
| robertr994 | yeah, have my php site online with a html backup in its place, should restart. any idea if I need to edit apache or did it do it? | 05:28 |
| dunham | ty, it's up | 05:28 |
| duckwars | startx -X doesn't help | 05:28 |
| Ahadiel | duckwars, I think he meant to start ssh with -X | 05:28 |
| duckwars | I also get xauth: error in locking authority file /home/username/.Xauthority | 05:28 |
| dunham | firefox was to slow loading pages... figured i'd try epiphany | 05:28 |
| duckwars | ohhh | 05:28 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: no, i said ssh -X, this is not to start X, its to forward it to your client | 05:29 |
| freter | welcome dunham, anyone have any thoughts on yahoo messenger settings for kopete? | 05:29 |
| Ahadiel | duckwars, did you set "DISPLAY" prior to running startx? | 05:29 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight:..hmmm... should i make changes in my network manager?? | 05:29 |
| OttifantSir | robertr994: I think you need to configure apache. From what I know, if you don't the site it will show is "It Works!" | 05:29 |
| duckwars | i tried ssh -X | 05:29 |
| robertr994 | http://www.kwtfstudio.com/asx/Screenshot.png this rocks | 05:29 |
| Ahadiel | duckwars, try DISPLAY=:0.0 startx | 05:29 |
| Ahadiel | duckwars, but not with ssh -X | 05:30 |
| duckwars | and error in locking authority file /home/username/.Xauthority | 05:30 |
| blackest_knight | no add to panel network applet you might need to install it | 05:30 |
| robertr994 | ok apache is no biggie to configure | 05:30 |
| MustardTiger | okay, I'll try that. thanks. | 05:30 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight:.and how after that?? | 05:30 |
| Deevz | ok, someone suggested I type in a new line in /etc/bashrc to set the ld_library_path variable, now what would be the syntax of that line? | 05:31 |
| duckwars | display=:0.0 startx doesn't work, I get like 5 errors along the lines of | 05:31 |
| blackest_knight | once its on the panel change the device to ppp0 then you'll see when its connected | 05:31 |
| duckwars | xauth: error in locking authority file /home/username/.Xauthority | 05:31 |
| Ahadiel | duckwars, check if .Xauthority is owned by you | 05:31 |
| duckwars | and then "X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting" | 05:31 |
| OttifantSir | robertr994: If you have experience in hosting, maybe not. For me, it's something I fear deep down in my heart. | 05:32 |
| Ahadiel | duckwars, ohhhh, hold on, I think I know | 05:32 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight: "NetworkManager Applet"is in my panel currently | 05:32 |
| LeChacal | hey, is it just me being dumb or something but I can't the find the acroread package in the repositories anywhere, can anyone confirm or tell me what repositories it is in, thank you. | 05:32 |
| joseluis_ | ccccccccc | 05:32 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: did you configure X to start automatically? | 05:32 |
| duckwars | not that I know of | 05:32 |
| mezquitale | anyone here has used dyndns.com for IP resolution? I am trying to find out what the interface should be if your machine is using a cable modem and behind a router? Using eth0 uses the router IP not the routable IP from the cable modem | 05:32 |
| robertr994 | been hosting since 2003 on windows, today is my first try on linux | 05:32 |
| blackest_knight | thinkertinker: what device is it set to show | 05:32 |
| legend2440 | duckwars: right click .Xauthority and choose properties>permissions make sure its not root and read write atre checked | 05:32 |
| legend2440 | are | 05:33 |
| duckwars | just read write for owner | 05:33 |
| joseluis_ | Something know a ide to python??? | 05:33 |
| duckwars | it's root root though | 05:33 |
| robertr994 | I love the way the machine is running now even though I cant get my video and sound installed..... no biggie its a server | 05:33 |
| mezquitale | robertr994, what's it like hosting on windows? ever had your sites hacked a lot and had code injected to your sites? how about reliability? | 05:33 |
| freter | no one having any issues with kopete and yahoo messenger? | 05:33 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight: sorry not sure!! it shows an icon for wi-fi netwrk range. | 05:33 |
| legend2440 | duckwars: it should not be root root bur yourname:yourname | 05:33 |
| Ahadiel | duckwars, are you trying to startx as root? | 05:33 |
| legend2440 | but | 05:33 |
| robertr994 | hacked all the time, reliable??? only if I babysit | 05:33 |
| mezquitale | freter, pidgin cant login to yahoo, someone has a work around but who cares, no more yahoo for me | 05:33 |
| benjimix | hi everyone | 05:34 |
| benjimix | :) | 05:34 |
| duckwars | even when I try to startx as root I get problems | 05:34 |
| blackest_knight | thinkertinker: install a 2nd one and then right click it for properties | 05:34 |
| duckwars | Fatal server error: Server is already active for diplay 0 | 05:34 |
| freter | is there another chat client for yahoo messenger that is working ? i just need it thats all | 05:34 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: why do you want to start X manually??? | 05:34 |
| duckwars | If this server is no longer running, remove /temp/.X0-lock and start again | 05:34 |
| Severity1 | mezquitale, its just a server mapping issue. | 05:34 |
| Ahadiel | duckwars, maybe try DISPLAY=:0.1 startx | 05:34 |
| djlenoir | i am trying to backup some files off my bad ubuntu load to usb drive using the live cd and getting locked files in my home folder. how can i get around this to unlock them so i can copy them? | 05:34 |
| duckwars | because my vncserver software requires it running | 05:35 |
| benjimix | hey would anyone in here be able to answer a question that i have about getting Tomcat6 set up on Hardy Heron? | 05:35 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight: do i get it from "add to panel"?..can u pls say the name of applet?? | 05:35 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: are you sure it's not running already? | 05:35 |
| blackest_knight | djlenoir: sudo nautilus | 05:35 |
| duckwars | didn't seem to work | 05:35 |
| ctmjr | LeChacal, it is in the medibuntu repo acroread-fonts - Fonts for Acrobat reader - Medibuntu package | 05:35 |
| robertr994 | im just very happy seeing this AMD64 run like its supposed to on Ubuntu compared to windows running 1.5 gig of ram on idle | 05:35 |
| djlenoir | blackest_knight: ok thanks | 05:35 |
| mezquitale | Severity1, that's what I thought but i dont want to waste time configuring something i use once every blue moon, i chat more on freenode way more than on yahoo | 05:35 |
| gartral | I can't get winff to encode... it keeps saying I don't have encoders | 05:35 |
| duckwars | well at the actual physical computer there is no desktop | 05:35 |
| budo | computer reports cant find a package and it should be there..the package is listed on the Jaunty' standard package list | 05:35 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: that doesn't mean X is not running | 05:36 |
| blackest_knight | add to panel network monitor | 05:36 |
| mezquitale | my AMD 64 bit is quite happy with ubuntu studio 8.10 | 05:36 |
| Ahadiel | duckwars, maybe this will help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=151703 | 05:36 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: can you ssh to the machine? | 05:36 |
| OttifantSir | gartral: Search for ffmpeg and install all of them that you need. | 05:36 |
| jeffs | any one know of any good dssi synths for ubuntu?? | 05:36 |
| mezquitale | anyone here has used dyndns.com for IP resolution? I am trying to find out what the interface should be if your machine is using a cable modem and behind a router? Using eth0 uses the router IP not the routable IP from the cable modem | 05:36 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight: i cant find it there. | 05:37 |
| budo | how can i scroll thru the package list or search through it on command line? | 05:37 |
| djlenoir | hmm, sudo nautilus apparently is not enough... getting permission denied to copy the files | 05:37 |
| freter | is there another chat client that is supporting yahoo messenger? | 05:37 |
| LeChacal | ctmjr, that is just fonts i have that installed but that isnt acroread, i just reinstalled janunty and i had it installed before i reloaded my system | 05:37 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight: i cant find it there.but when i installed jaunty it came along. | 05:37 |
| gartral | OttifantSir: I did. | 05:37 |
| blackest_knight | ok you need to install it with synaptic search network applet to find it | 05:38 |
| robertr994 | mez, some of the cheaper modems will not port forward even though the options are there. try bypassing the router to see if this is the case for you | 05:38 |
| Hilikus | mezquitale: what do you mean? dyndns just translates to you ip, your router doesn't need to know about it | 05:38 |
| blackest_knight | freter other than pidgin or amsn ? | 05:38 |
| LeChacal | ctmjr, and apt wont let you just install acroread-fonts because it has acroread as a dependency | 05:38 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight: i cant find it there is it beacuse it has been added once? | 05:38 |
| OttifantSir | gartral: Did you get the ones from Medibuntu? | 05:38 |
| gartral | OttifantSir: it shouldn't matter... Im going from Theora too Theora | 05:38 |
| robertr994 | gonna reboot, thanks all for the help ! | 05:38 |
| benjimix | when i try to start tomcat6 on ubuntu it does not seem to be able to find any JARS that are in my WEB-INF/lib directory (eg: i get a NoClassDefFoundError) - the JARs are there, CATALINA_HOME and CATALINA_BASE are set and the WAR file works in my local (Windows) tomcat instance. would anyone here be able to shed some light on this? | 05:39 |
| jeffs | i've been trying to find some good synth plugins for my ubuntu studio thats not listed on the dist. page..any one know of any? | 05:39 |
| budo | is there a way to search the package list? | 05:39 |
| blackest_knight | no you can add as many as you want i tend to have 1 per interface | 05:39 |
| gartral | OttifantSir: its throwing Unknown encoder 'mpeg2video' on exit | 05:39 |
| Hilikus | budo: apt-cache search | 05:39 |
| budo | from a command line | 05:39 |
| pinoyskull | this is OT: anybody knows of an antenna supplier for 3G usb modems? | 05:39 |
| duckwars | Well here's the overall problem. When I start the vnc server at the terminal on the physical VNC server machine, already in a GUI, the vnc server works, BUT when I try to launch it from a foreign machine while ssh'ing in, it doesn't work | 05:39 |
| gartral | pinoyskull: that question belongs in ##hardware or ##electronics | 05:40 |
| pinoyskull | ah, thanks gartral for the direction | 05:40 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: why don't you just forward X, do you really need vnc? | 05:40 |
| blackest_knight | duckwars why do you need the remote desktop ? | 05:40 |
| Severity1 | hi pinoyskull | 05:41 |
| duckwars | what is forwarding X? I need to work with the gui desktop a lot of the time because I can't really do EVERYTHING through command line | 05:41 |
| mezquitale | Hilikus, dynsdns.com needs to update your dynamic IP, I have to use a client on my machine to update my IP, however when you configure the client you have to specify an interface, I thought it was "eth0" however eth0 is the local IP provided by the router and is non-routable, I need the interface for the cable modem which has a routable IP | 05:41 |
| pinoyskull | Severity1: hi | 05:41 |
| ctmjr | LeChacal, your welcome | 05:41 |
| skellingtonx | ahadiel, *sigh* | 05:42 |
| Polux_ | someone can help me ? | 05:42 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: one thing is controlling the remote desktop (VNC) other is forwarding X which will open windows from the remote machine as if they were local | 05:42 |
| blackest_knight | duckwars: right its simple enough ssh duckwars@127.0.0.1 -X and then start the graphical program and it will pop up as a window on your local system | 05:42 |
| OttifantSir | gartral: I'm sorry, I'm too tired to remember anything right now. It's gettling close to 7am and I need to get some sleep. I seem to remember having the problem myself once. Try the forums. That's where I usually get my answers. | 05:43 |
| blackest_knight | duckwars: obviously replace that address with your remote machine ip | 05:43 |
| Hilikus | mezquitale: what client are you using? mine doesn't ask for that | 05:43 |
| mezquitale | Hilikus, im using ddclient, it uses ssh to update my IP, are you also using a modem(cable/dsl) and a router? | 05:44 |
| duckwars | oh, okay. What is a graphical program I can use with os x? | 05:44 |
| duckwars | doesn't seem to work just typing ssh username@xxx.x.x.xxx -X | 05:44 |
| blackest_knight | duckwars: try nautilus see if it works | 05:44 |
| Hilikus | mezquitale: yes, server behind a firewall behind a router/modem with NAT | 05:44 |

| gbear14275 | I'm confused about the difference between paravirtualization and hypervisors (baremetal virtualization). I would like to try out running xen as a hypervisor on my machine and with ubuntu as a domU (or Dom0... not completely sure how it all works yet). Anyone done this before or have a pointer to a good howto? | 05:45 |
| gartral | thanks OttifantSir | 05:45 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: try putting -X before the host | 05:45 |
| Hilikus | and then start anything graphical like emacs or gedit | 05:45 |
| budo | wget program. thats what i needed ! | 05:45 |
| budo | thanks Hilikus | 05:45 |
| mezquitale | Hilikus, that's OK, thanks, I already made my choice and it's working, I just have to figure out what interface I should use, I think the interface is "web" but I guess I'll find out later on when I get a new IP | 05:46 |
| blackest_knight | duckwars: provided username is a valid a/c on the remote system it should ask for your password within about 30 secs | 05:46 |
| djlenoir | can the ubuntu install cd create a guid partition? | 05:46 |
| djlenoir | or just mbr | 05:46 |
| Hilikus | whats the most common c++ IDE in ubuntu? | 05:47 |
| duckwars | when i do the -X a program in os x comes up called X11, but it doesn't seem to show me the desktop | 05:47 |
| Hilikus | duckwars: you won't get the desktop, but the apps that you open | 05:47 |
| gartral | duckwars: X11 user in Mac is... strange.. | 05:47 |
| blackest_knight | Hilikus: eclipse or netbeans | 05:47 |
| Jeruvy | djlenoir: um yes. | 05:47 |

| guillaume | Hello everyone. I just installed an ubuntu Jaunty on an ibook g3 (powerpc) and I'm unable to read movie with mplayer neither totem because of some altivec flags... How can I solve that ? | 05:54 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight: wel now how to put it there?? need i install gnome-netstatus-applet?? | 05:55 |
| blackest_knight | thinkertinker: sudo apt-get install gnome-netstatus-applet | 05:56 |
| blackest_knight | once its installed you can add to panel | 05:56 |
| zoquete | hi | 05:56 |
| JohnnyZero | guillaume have you installed all the plugins? | 05:56 |
| JohnnyZero | good, bad and ugly? | 05:56 |
| zoquete | anyone knows anyone on xubuntu that can support me? | 05:57 |
| thinkertinker | blackest_knight: lemme try it.. | 05:57 |
| ROOT78s | I have a 160 g net book | 05:57 |
| zoquete | I've xubuntu 9.04 | 05:57 |
| zoquete | and it's really slow | 05:57 |
| zoquete | i can't work :S | 05:57 |
| JohnnyZero | guillaume: Try going to synaptic and installing all the plugins. | 05:57 |
| gogeta | zoquete: err new pc? | 05:57 |
| zoquete | yes | 05:57 |
| zoquete | i've a Lenovo SL400 laptop | 05:58 |
| Hilikus | zoquete: what's slow? | 05:58 |
| guillaume | JohnnyZero: which plugin ? mplayer does not have any and the needed for gstreamer segfault | 05:58 |
| zoquete | and two days ago installed xub | 05:58 |
| jumentous | hey, i'm playing around with packaging and at the moment using it to deploy a couple of .conf scripts on a new comp, however i get the error 'trying to overwrite X, which is also in package Y', which is fine, is there a setting that i can use to allow this from within the package | 05:58 |
| zoquete | i use Eclipse PDT | 05:58 |
| zoquete | and Firefox | 05:58 |
| zoquete | and Open Office | 05:58 |
| gogeta | zoquete: and | 05:58 |
| fornix | zoquete: those 3 are enough to kill processor! | 05:58 |
| zoquete | the three programs are slow | 05:58 |
| zoquete | and a terminal | 05:58 |
| JohnnyZero | guillaume: There should be 3 sets of plugins for gstreamer. Good, Bad and Ugly | 05:58 |
| zoquete | i've a core 2 duo | 05:59 |
| gogeta | zoquete: all 3 at once | 05:59 |
| guillaume | sorry, I need to be more precise in my request. Every multimedia application crash with illegal instructions because they are compiled with altivec that my g3 does not support. | 05:59 |
| Hilikus | zoquete: run top and see what's slowing it | 05:59 |
| zoquete | typing in the terminal uses a lot of processor | 05:59 |
| zoquete | xorg | 05:59 |
| gogeta | guillaume: vlc | 05:59 |
| JohnnyZero | Yeah vlc is good | 05:59 |

| DrDerek | you don't | 06:00 |
| SuspectZero | why :S | 06:00 |
| SuspectZero | XD | 06:00 |
| Hilikus | zoquete: 20% is not that much | 06:00 |

| zoquete | change desktops 2 secs | 06:00 |
| JohnnyZero | gillaume: I used Windows Media Player on Ubuntu for a bit there. Worked out fine for me. But I also spent alot of money for Crossover. It does get pricey. | 06:01 |
| Hilikus | zoquete: what video driver are you using | 06:01 |
| zoquete | change aplications 3 sec | 06:01 |
| oyenk | hello | 06:01 |
| zoquete | it's really unconfortable | 06:01 |
| Hilikus | and when you do that xorg goes up? | 06:01 |
| durt | zoquete, how much mem? | 06:01 |
| gogeta | JohnnyZero: and you could have used winetricks and installed it for free | 06:01 |
| fornix | my X uses 1% cpu | 06:01 |

| WindPower | Hi people, I just bought this Asus laptop and am using Kubuntu 9.04-bits on it right now, but the Ethernet controller doesn't work. I tried on Ubuntu as well, and its 32-bit version. I'm using the wireless right now but it slow, unstable, and in a few days it won't be available anymore cause I'll be moving, so I need the ethernet controller to work. It's a SiS 191 Gigabit ethernet controller. I've googled around for 2 days now a | 06:02 |
| WindPower | read dozens of forums posts and mailing list messages, some of them going back to 2005, and most of them ending without solution. Any suggestions? | 06:02 |
| oyenk | can some one help me....? | 06:02 |
| guillaume | gogeta: vlc same problem, it use altivec flags | 06:02 |
| jeffs | any one use ubuntu to produce music? | 06:02 |
| fornix | windows media player?? why would anyone use that? i use mplayer. even when i am on windows | 06:02 |
| durt | oyenk, just ask | 06:02 |
| zoquete | video driver? | 06:03 |
| gogeta | guillaume: unfortanly ubuntu has no real ppc support | 06:03 |

| zoquete | the video is a Intel 4500MHD onboard | 06:03 |
| Hilikus | zoquete: yes but you still need a driver to talk to you video card | 06:03 |
| JohnnyZero | Right now I am on PCBSD but I am thinking of going back to Jaunty assuming I can get my CD Burner working on Jaunty. | 06:03 |
| gogeta | guillaume: or even osx | 06:03 |
| === buntunub is now known as archdave | ||
| Hilikus | zoquete: mmm then i don't know. never used intel video cards | 06:04 |
| guillaume | gogeta: osx is not a solution, I don't want an os which is 10 years old, and the newest release of osx does not run on that laptop | 06:04 |
| zoquete | i understand that Intel are automatic recognized (sorry my english, i speak spanish) | 06:04 |
| JohnnyZero | I want wodim to be able to fixate my discs and for it to actually work as a DVD burner like it should. Not just as a CD Rom. | 06:04 |
| gogeta | guillaume: osx tiger does | 06:04 |
| MustardTiger | Hello again, I check the CD & it's fine. I tried installing (duelboot XP) from live CD. I slide the partition size for Ubuntu to 18GB, when it tries to "resize partition" it stays at 0% and come back with error. | 06:05 |

| mlm | 5959+ | 06:05 |
| JohnnyZero | gogeta: Well unless you count the Cell chip. But thats really only used in PS3s | 06:05 |
| MustardTiger | I then ge the option to "prepare partion" and it list my current drives but I don't know what to do. Any help? | 06:05 |
| zoquete | ok, thanks | 06:05 |
| zoquete | i try on xubuntu forum but is nothing here | 06:06 |
| guillaume | gogeta: not for me. I have a pretty good laptop and until I found a better one, I'll want to keep that one | 06:06 |
| gbear14275 | legend2440: this is fun to watch... I'm actually getting nervous | 06:06 |
| oyenk | i have problem when instaLL virtual box.."Error: Wrong architecture 'amd64'" | 06:07 |
| oyenk | any suggest bout that..? | 06:07 |
| JohnnyZero | guillaume try vlc and see what happens. | 06:07 |
| guillaume | JohnnyZero: same thing, it crashs | 06:07 |
| JohnnyZero | Hmm | 06:07 |
| Ahadiel | oyenk, paste the output of uname -a | 06:07 |
| JohnnyZero | What is the error message. I'll google it for you. | 06:07 |

| gogeta | yellow dog | 06:08 |
| JohnnyZero | Ah too late lol | 06:08 |
| gogeta | thats a ppc linux | 06:08 |
| gogeta | ubuntu ppc is third party only | 06:08 |
| gogeta | it was droped years ago | 06:08 |
| guillaume | JohnnyZero: Illegal instruction ;) I allready googled it... There is lots of people talking about it on internet, but noone give a solution except "buy a new computer" | 06:08 |
| guillaume | gogeta: it was working on edgy | 06:08 |
| JohnnyZero | LOL oh sorry | 06:08 |
| gogeta | edgy i beleve was the very last one | 06:09 |
| legend2440 | gbear14275: you want to remove Ubuntu? | 06:09 |
| gogeta | edgy had ppc support even thow it got droped | 06:09 |
| guillaume | gogeta: thank for yellowdog, but I prefere compile my own mplayer rather than installing a new system | 06:10 |
| JohnnyZero | Doesn't arch linux have PPC support? | 06:10 |
| mlissner | Hi, I'm trying to write a clever script using the mail command, but it's prompting me for a CC, and I have to press ^D for it to send the message. Does anybody have any ideas how to turn these off? | 06:10 |
| oyenk | i try to instaL build essential | 06:10 |

| gbear14275 | legend2440: terminating a managed server service on an unfriendly basis (they suck, i'm changing my cc number)... I want to wipe the hard drive | 06:10 |
| Ahadiel | oyenk, paste the output of uname -a | 06:10 |
| JohnnyZero | guillaume, theres always the wine option too | 06:10 |
| guillaume | Hey, I don't want a new system... If there is no solution out of the box, i'll build from source mplayer and ffmpeg... | 06:10 |
| JohnnyZero | If you haven't tried that already | 06:10 |
| guillaume | JohnnyZero: wine ? | 06:10 |
| Hilikus | mlissner: i think if you send the whole message in 1 command it wont ask for it | 06:10 |
| MustardTiger | i get stuck (error) at the partition part with installing either from the LiveCD or after the Installer. Can I do the partition manually & how? | 06:11 |
| oyenk | but there`s some error too...>>build-essential: Depends: g++ (>= 4:4.3.1) but it is not going to be installed | 06:11 |
| mlissner | Hilikus, is there a trick to doing that that I'm missing? | 06:11 |
| JohnnyZero | Yeah you can run wine and try out Winamp or Quicktime. | 06:11 |
| Hilikus | mlissner: what are you currently doing | 06:11 |
| Jeruvy | guillaume: its only supported in community now, which pretty much means rollyourown :) | 06:11 |
| mlissner | my command is something like: mail -s"subject" email@example.com | 06:11 |
| guillaume | JohnnyZero: have you any ideo how wine work ? | 06:11 |
| Dulak | guillaiume: your only real option is to compile your own media player without the multimedia extensions, the g3 breaks the hell out of extension detection | 06:11 |
| gogeta | Dulak: yellow dog seems to still have g3 | 06:11 |
| Hilikus | mlissner: where do you write the body? | 06:11 |
| mlissner | Hilikus: No body. Just a subject. | 06:12 |
| JohnnyZero | guillaume: well I use Crossover and it kinda just runs the exe files I need it to | 06:12 |
| mlissner | Hilikus: Though a blank body, or a space, or whatever is fine. | 06:12 |
| guillaume | Dulak: yeah, I know it is a solution, I was wondering if there is something simpler without the time of the compilation ;) | 06:12 |
| JohnnyZero | I just double click, install it and there it is. | 06:12 |
| guillaume | JohnnyZero: you are on x86 ;) | 06:12 |
| oyenk | Linux oyenk 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux | 06:12 |
| JohnnyZero | guilaume: yeah.....I guess you're right | 06:12 |
| Ahadiel | oyenk, You can't install AMD64 Virtualbox on that | 06:13 |
| Dulak | guillaume: not really | 06:13 |
| Ahadiel | oyenk, download the 32-bit version | 06:13 |
| JohnnyZero | and you are somewhat correct guillaume. I am on an x86_64 | 06:13 |
| guillaume | Dulak: ok... and you think it can be possible to ask for a .deb without the altivec extension ? Btw i'm not the only one in this situation... | 06:14 |
| gogeta | guillaume: compile it from source make a deb | 06:14 |
| Dulak | guillaume: it's pretty simple to make your own deb | 06:14 |
| JohnnyZero | guillaume: Unless you can find an old rpm and convert it with alien. | 06:15 |
| gogeta | guillaume: thers a program that will do it for you the name i forgot lol | 06:15 |
| Hilikus | mlissner: try echo " " | mail -s HEAD <address> | 06:15 |
| guillaume | gogeta, Dulak, the idea is to avoid doing it myself, if I run an ubuntu it's because a gentoo take too much time. If i must start compiling myself, I'll install a gentoo ;) | 06:15 |
| oyenk | ok tq :) | 06:15 |
| gogeta | guillaume: well ubuntu isnt a legicy distro | 06:16 |
| JohnnyZero | guillaume: Have you tried searching for an old rpm file that will install? | 06:16 |
| mlissner | Hilikus: Brilliant. | 06:16 |
| Dulak | guillaume: compiling one package to solve your problem is hardly gentooish. If you don't want to take the time to solve your own problem, I don't see why anyone else should. | 06:16 |
| mlissner | Hilikus: Thank you kindly for your creativity. | 06:16 |
| JohnnyZero | and converting it with alien | 06:16 |
| Hilikus | mlissner: np | 06:16 |
| Guest58516 | Hi. I want to clone a 160GB disk onto a 500GB disk from the live cd. Would this command do the job? dd if=<drive 1> of=<drive 2> | 06:16 |
| guillaume | Dulak: because anyone can have a computer faster than mine ;) | 06:16 |
| gogeta | guillaume: becides you fix others to spreding the love | 06:17 |
| Dulak | guillaume: you start the compile right before you go to bed, it's done by the morning. You won't notice the time. | 06:17 |
| gogeta | guillaume: if he conpiled it on a non g3 it would compile badly and be slow | 06:17 |
| gogeta | we | 06:17 |
| vox | Guest58516: it'll do it, but you'll end up with 160gb accessable on the 500gb disk | 06:17 |
| JohnnyZero | Lemme search around for a proggie guillaume | 06:17 |
| Dulak | guillaume: I have no sympathy, I remember compiling kernels on a 386 | 06:17 |
| vox | Guest58516: use 'gparted' on the live cd | 06:17 |
| Guest58516 | vox, will i be able to expand the disk afterward? | 06:18 |
| gogeta | guillaume: thats how optmisied compiles work | 06:18 |
| Guest58516 | with gparted? | 06:18 |
| vox | Guest58516: it will do exactly what you're looking for | 06:18 |
| oyenk | why..sometimes when i update my pacckage...there`s error GPG error: http://dl2.foss-id.web.id intrepid-security Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com> | 06:18 |
| guillaume | gogeta: you can optimise compilation for different targets | 06:18 |
| Guest58516 | You mean skip dd entirely? | 06:18 |
| vox | Guest58516: yes | 06:18 |
| vox | Guest58516: just run 'gparted' | 06:18 |
| gogeta | guillaume: its not the same using emulation | 06:18 |
| Guest58516 | Oh OK | 06:18 |

| guillaume | gogeta: why are you talking about emulation ? | 06:19 |
| moymoy | Guest58516: i can't see why you can't expand it.. but according to the ubuntu release notes, expanding an ext4 partition may cause lots of data loss | 06:19 |
| gogeta | guillaume: if you compile for ppc on a x86 its compiling on a totaly diffrent arc | 06:19 |

| gogeta | JohnnyZero: knothing beats trying to eexplane how compiling works in lamemns terms | 06:27 |
| gogeta | lol | 06:27 |
| wired22 | Hilikus: Proprietary | 06:27 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: they should be, yes | 06:27 |

| JohnnyZero | gogeta: I usually just follow a wiki. I do it the "for dummies" way | 06:28 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: do you know how to back up my databases just in case? | 06:28 |
| gogeta | JohnnyZero: lol i knoe a nativ ssmokes a cross thats abought it | 06:28 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: mysqldump --all-databases > backup i believe | 06:28 |

| gogeta | Nameless_au: i beleve so i have done it | 06:29 |
| JohnnyZero | gogeta I've had to compile before. I had to actually on Arch Linux. | 06:29 |
| JohnnyZero | Never really on Ubuntu though | 06:29 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: but make sure you do it with a user that has full rights, like root | 06:29 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: actually you might be able to do it from phpmyadmin before you remove it | 06:30 |
| gogeta | JohnnyZero: thats becouse ubuntu has debs for everything even kernel patches | 06:30 |
| gogeta | lol | 06:30 |
| skellingtonx | quick question: how do i make my flash drive bootable> | 06:30 |
| Jeruvy | Nameless_au: I use shutdown -r, and it seems to save the session ok | 06:30 |
| guillaume | gogeta: still does find what are you calling "genrec call" ? | 06:30 |
| skellingtonx | ?* | 06:30 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: haah well thats the problem. My friend changed the permissions somewhere so we cant get into it | 06:30 |
| Nameless_au | gogeta: by "i have done it" are you implying you can do it by adding certain arguments/switches or that it does it automatically upon reboot, just like through the gui? | 06:30 |
| gogeta | guillaume: non optmised | 06:30 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: permissions or password? | 06:31 |
| Rat409 | skellingtonx: try syslinux | 06:31 |
| Guest97480 | Hilikus is there a file where the database is located that can be copied and pasted? | 06:31 |
| gogeta | Nameless_au: sudo reboot that i did everything semmed saved | 06:31 |
| mubu | Hey guys, how do I have my ubuntu 9.04 pc shutdown after a certain amount of minutes. when i use "sudo shutdown 30", after 30 minutes it doesnt shut down, its like i get logged out and go to this weird almost text only rescue menu. Thanks | 06:31 |
| Nameless_au | gogeta: k tnx | 06:31 |
| guillaume | gogeta: and still wondering why compiling on the same arch that target arch optimise better ? | 06:31 |
| skellingtonx | oh sorry, should have been more specific: how do i make my flash drive bootable in windows xp? | 06:31 |
| Hilikus | guest, it depends what kind of tables, but mysqldump is preferred | 06:31 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: permissions.. I believe they are permissions of the symlink or folder in the /var/www folder?? Im not at his computer to see the exact setup | 06:31 |
| Scunizi | mubu: try sudo shutdown -P 30 | 06:32 |
| gogeta | guillaume: i dunno it just does | 06:32 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: but the problem is you can get to phpmyadmin or that it won't let you in? | 06:32 |
| JohnnyZero | skellingtonx set the flag to boot | 06:32 |
| Hilikus | can't* | 06:32 |
| JohnnyZero | You can use GPart for that | 06:32 |
| mubu | scunizi, ill try it out thanks | 06:32 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: yes, 127.0.0.1/phpmyadmin gives error messages saying permission denied and wrong permissions... | 06:32 |
| gogeta | guillaume: you can recompile on the same arc on a diffrent pc and get better preforance | 06:32 |
| Scunizi | mubu: I typically use sudo shutdown -P now when logged in via ssh.. | 06:32 |
| skellingtonx | thanks | 06:32 |
| dotblank | hey guys... I just found out ubuntu is FREAKING AMAZING. plug and play wicom tablet worked awesome when used with gimp... | 06:33 |
| Jeruvy | mubu: -P will power it down but the 30 means 30 minutes | 06:33 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: but is the error from phpmyadmin or apache?? | 06:33 |
| Scunizi | mubu: yep.. | 06:33 |
| guillaume | gogeta: ok, and if it just does, you have some references which can help me in my quest to understand ? | 06:33 |
| JohnnyZero | skellington: just be careful with G Part though. Make sure you get the right drive. | 06:33 |
| JohnnyZero | Go to the drop down menu and look to see what your Flash Drive is known as | 06:34 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: it is for phpmyadmin . i checked the permissions of apache.conf and everything was fine | 06:34 |

| rleeds | I started using aptitude a while back because I heard it does auto-removal of orphaned dependencies (though I hear apt-get does also now). I was wondering if using the graphical update-manager breaks that functionality for aptitude.? | 06:34 |
| gogeta | guillaume: thats gentoos entire theme compilig from source on the target pc is better | 06:34 |
| JohnnyZero | skellingtonx, Because your hard drive also shows up in G Part | 06:34 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: i don't think reinstalling phpmyadmin will fix it, i might be wrong | 06:34 |

| Hilikus | phorensic: can you get in using the CLI mysql client? | 06:35 |
| skellingtonx | ok. | 06:35 |
| guillaume | gogeta: sources of you assertion ? | 06:35 |
| dsdeiz | hmm let me see if i got this correctly | 06:36 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: I imagine I could...I haven't tried yet | 06:36 |
| gogeta | guillaume: gentoo emerge is just souced compiled for your pc using gcc and emerge | 06:36 |
| Scunizi | guillaume: I think that gogeta 's statement isn't his assertion but what gentoo followers believe.. | 06:36 |
| dsdeiz | so gtk+ provides the interface? :S | 06:36 |
| EagleScreen | rleeds, update-manager won't probably autoremove orphaned packages, but you will do it later with aptitude or synaptic | 06:36 |
| dsdeiz | is qt another alternative to gtk+ ?S | 06:36 |
| JohnnyZero | sorry skellingtonx its known as GParted | 06:36 |
| JohnnyZero | Not GPart | 06:36 |
| Guest41294 | тут Русские есть?! | 06:36 |
| dsdeiz | <--- kinda confused :D | 06:36 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: try that and maybe try to fix the permissions from there | 06:36 |
| gogeta | Scunizi: gentoo and slackware both beleve that | 06:36 |
| dotblank | dsdeiz: qt is a diffreant api for gui stuff. but it is similar to gtk | 06:37 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: mysql -u root -p | 06:37 |
| JohnnyZero | dsdeiz: KDE people will tell you to use qt because it works better with KDE | 06:37 |
| gogeta | Scunizi: hes whats someone to cross compile for g3 and he dont understand it will preform badly better to do it nativly | 06:37 |
| skellingtonx | JohnnyZero:yeah, i know. i just didnt know they had it for windows. ive used it in ubuntu before. | 06:37 |
| rleeds | EagleScreen, My question is whether update-manager will mark automatically installed packages in such a way that only aptitude or apt-get will get it or if either one (or synaptic) would be able to autoremove for me. | 06:37 |
| JohnnyZero | ahh | 06:37 |

| Scunizi | guillaume: gogeta there is some merrit to it.. optimized kernel and programs for your specific system.. | 06:37 |
| rleeds | EagleScreen, I was under the impression apt-get and aptitude had different databases of what is auto-installed | 06:37 |
| dsdeiz | is there like a lightweight ui? :S | 06:37 |
| guillaume | Scunizi: gogeta assert that compiling on the same arch as the target arch optimise better, which is (as far as i know) a false assert. Gentoo users think that compiling with specifics optimisations for a specifis arch is faster than a generic build, which can be true | 06:38 |
| Guest97480 | nik | 06:38 |
| Scunizi | dsdeiz: xfce4 which is what xubuntu is. | 06:38 |
| dotblank | dsdeiz: There are usually 2 guis that most apps use. all the apps on kubuntu (usually) run qt while the apps on ubuntu (gnome) use gtk | 06:38 |
| JohnnyZero | skellingtonx, http://www.brunolinux.com/01-First_Things_To_Know/Windows_Tools_-_Gparted.html | 06:38 |
| JohnnyZero | Theres the version for Windows I believe | 06:38 |
| dotblank | I think gtk is pretty lightweight | 06:38 |
| dsdeiz | dotblank: basically, how are they called? just plain "user interfaces"? | 06:38 |
| gogeta | guillaume: i said cross compling a arc is bad | 06:39 |
| gogeta | couldent even test the build | 06:39 |
| Scunizi | guillaume: apples / oranges.. it's an ongoing battle .. and off topic here.. | 06:39 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: well I think the permissions that are wrong are in the /var/www folder and I couldn't find any docs on what they should be set to. I think something like this happened: $var/www: sudo chmod 777 phpmyadmin.. or chmod -Rf 777 phpmyadmin | 06:39 |
| sagaci | you know how you go into a terminal session using alt+F2 etcetra, can you change the screen resolution to make more stuff fit on the screen | 06:39 |
| guillaume | gogeta: but why ? I'm unable to understand why it's bad... | 06:39 |
| gogeta | Scunizi: yea if he whont help himself why bother keep going | 06:39 |
| gogeta | end | 06:40 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: you said the problem is not apache and that you can get to the login screen fine | 06:40 |
| guillaume | Scunizi: it's not off topic if I think that gogeta told false assertions about compilations. | 06:40 |
| Hilikus | why would the problem be in /var/www then? | 06:40 |
| gogeta | block | 06:40 |
| dotblank | dsdeiz: They are 2 different libraries that a program will use to draw gui elements. | 06:41 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: Hilikuswhen i try to login to phpmyadmin, it gives me the permission error: either world wide permission no supposed to be set or forbidden | 06:41 |
| JohnnyZero | Well anyways guys what I came here for it doesn't look like anyone can help me with so I'll try to help you guys with other issues. | 06:41 |
| Scunizi | guillaume: it is because it's not ubuntu specific help.. much easier to go to #ubuntu-offtopic and discuss the specifics | 06:41 |
| guillaume | Scunizi: ok, no problem for that ;) | 06:41 |
| Jeruvy | no, I'd concure building is OT here, but tolerated heavily...so if you don't go too far it's ok. | 06:41 |
| guillaume | gogeta: you come to offtopic ? | 06:41 |

| gogeta | :) | 06:43 |
| JohnnyZero | dotblank, my issue was that my cd burner wasn't burning CDs. Everytime I tried and with each program I tried it said it couldn't fixate the disk. Many people in here said my CD Burner is probably broken. | 06:43 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: only after you enter login/pass in phpmyadmin? | 06:43 |
| dotblank | JohnnyZero: does it work in windows? | 06:43 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: no that login doesn't even come up | 06:44 |
| JohnnyZero | dotblank, I actually haven't tried it in windows | 06:44 |
| Hilikus | phorensic: so the problem is with the web server, not the database | 06:44 |
| JohnnyZero | I haven't used it in a long time. I was using Ubuntu for about 1 to 2 years and then randomly decided to try burning CDs and it just wouldn't work. | 06:44 |
| Scunizi | JohnnyZero: quite possible.. the only other thing to check is to see if the country peramiters have changed for some reason.. That unfortunately I don't know how to do. | 06:44 |
| dotblank | JohnnyZero: I would try it on a windows box and if it doesn't work.. then I guess the drive would be broken | 06:44 |
| gogeta | man that guy whont let it go | 06:45 |
| JohnnyZero | It reads CDs and DVDs but it just doesn't burn them | 06:45 |
| dotblank | I ussually have no issues at with cd burning | 06:45 |
| dotblank | all* | 06:45 |
| Hilikus | check the permissions of everything under /var/www/phpmyadmin | 06:45 |
| JohnnyZero | dotblank, thats what everyone in here said. Thats why they told me to run hardware tests on the burner somehow. | 06:45 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: No, the permissions for phpmyadmin and messed up somewhere... do you know what the permissions are supposed to be there? | 06:45 |
| Hilikus | it should be owned by root and be 644 | 06:46 |
| phorensic | Hilikus: great I will have him try that | 06:46 |
| dotblank | JohnnyZero: cd burners I believe have 2 different lasers | 06:46 |
| JohnnyZero | dotblank, well my brother is a tech I think he can check it out. You guys are prob right. It is likely broken. | 06:47 |
| dotblank | JohnnyZero: try changing the drives position in the IDE controller.. | 06:47 |
| Scunizi | JohnnyZero: replacements are cheep these days. | 06:47 |
| dotblank | JohnnyZero: Yea burners are very cheap.. I even have a blu ray drive | 06:48 |
| gbear14275 | for those that always wanted to completely obliterate their root dir but couldn't..: http://paste.ubuntu.com/213438/ | 06:48 |

| Scunizi | BD? | 06:49 |
| Jeruvy | Scunizi: Blue-ray Discs | 06:49 |
| Scunizi | Jeruvy: ah. I was thinking BR | 06:49 |
| dotblank | Jeruvy: Well im using a CD/DVD burner that has the ability to play BD | 06:49 |
| Jeruvy | dotblank: I'm only interested in burning...thanks. | 06:50 |

| ActionParsnip | administrator__: few wifi adapters will work without a lot of work (I personally buy only the ones that do) so if you PXE boot the wifi may not be usable due to drivers etc | 07:39 |

| badeagle | Chris8: is there a configure script? ./configure | 07:42 |
| Slart | grendal_prime: run gocnf-editor from a terminal | 07:42 |
| ActionParsnip | administrator__: use wired is easier, new wifi adapter that works out of the box, or stuggle setting up the wifi in terminal (if you are unfamiliar) to get it working | 07:42 |
| CatEater | why does the ubuntu installer show a time exactly 9 hours ago? | 07:42 |
| Arv3n | grendal_prime, or press alt + f2 and type in gconf-editor | 07:42 |

| administrator__ | i have a wireless network | 07:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreki: huh? | 07:42 |
| phase_shift314 | thanks for the info everyone | 07:42 |
| CatEater | it says "Prepare disk space", since i'm past that step already | 07:42 |
| grendal_prime | ya gconf-editor does nothing..i already tried that | 07:42 |
| grendal_prime | not from a term anyway | 07:43 |

| badeagle | Chris8: if you toss me a link to the source archive i'll poke at it, see what i can find out | 07:43 |
| Arv3n | grendal_prime, when you run it in a terminal whats it say? | 07:43 |
| ActionParsnip | administrator__: you can have 40 wireless networks, if the device isnt working you can't connect to anything can you | 07:43 |
| Arv3n | command not found? | 07:43 |
| administrator__ | ok | 07:43 |

| Dreki | ActionParsnip 2 saphira 4850 1gig cards u said it depends on the card | 07:44 |
| ActionParsnip | administrator__: so if your wireless network adapter is not automagically configured you will need to get it setup before you can pxe boot | 07:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Dreki: check the hcl | 07:44 |

| Wazzzaaa | I need the dir where the homedirs are stored /home | 08:31 |

| iMatter | oskar-: interesting was kinda lost after a certain point...How much space would i need for just ubuntu, is 10GB good? | 08:32 |
| Wazzzaaa | But it's not always /home | 08:32 |
| iMatter | oskar-: and instead could i do this from a Live CD | 08:32 |
| Wazzzaaa | So there is no environment var for it ? | 08:32 |
| iMatter | oskar-: the copying of home via all GUI... | 08:32 |
| oskar- | iMatter: you can do that from a live cd. be sure to make a backup before, as mistakes can lead to a desaster | 08:32 |
| Flannel | iMatter: That page explains it all in more detail than you could get here in this channel, follow it, and you'll be fine. | 08:33 |
| guntbert | Wazzzaaa: the admin can set for every user where her homedir should be (its in /etc/passwd) | 08:33 |
| l0C0 | Wazzzaaa: I've never come across one, as there's no reason under normal circumstances for something needing to access it | 08:33 |

| S_A | l0C0: is it the one called by apps everytime an application is supposed to called with root authentication ? | 08:37 |
| oskar- | iMatter: "cat /proc/partitions" or "blkid"; you should try to understand, what that is all about before doing it. upgrading normally does not need a separate home, so you should consider to do it later | 08:37 |
| iMatter | oskar-: i know...i chose to do it now because i finnally got the guts and backups to kill windows and have enough space | 08:38 |
| Wazzzaaa | ok, thnx all for your reaction. I asked this because a script needed some users and red them from /home/ But now I realize when it only give the users in /home SO if I want all, the best option is to get them from the passwd file? | 08:38 |

| iMatter | Ok im exiting everything that doesn't need to be open | 08:46 |
| iMatter | so nothing crashes | 08:47 |

| MindVirus | Any suggestions? | 08:48 |

| cehr | hey, lately my firefox has been randomly closing and now it has suddenly refused to open. when I try it at a terminal it says "cannot open XPCOM". it's the latest 3.0.x, but I tried installing 3.5 in the past, could that be the cause? | 08:51 |
| Flannel | peleg: If you need to install a package before you upgrade, use http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ | 08:51 |
| peleg | Flannel, thanks | 08:52 |
| nirly | when using some programs from the terminal (interpreters), I can't use the arrow keys (i get ^[[A,.. etc.), however the arrow keys work fine in the shell itself. How can I fix it so that I can use the arrow keys in all programs? | 08:52 |
| Saruji | the same error, "You have two broken packages on your system" at first, then after attempting to update I get "update incomplete" I can post the details somewhere? | 08:52 |
| Myrtti | lolcash: what's up? | 08:52 |
| sar_lisp | Hi, I have a filename called '-1.txt' but using cp -1.txt 1.txt The problem is the '-'. it says cp: invalid option --1 | 08:52 |
| Flannel | peleg: but again, you really ought to upgrade to 8.04 (and then might as well stick on LTS, since it seems to suit you) | 08:52 |
| oskar- | peleg: maybe you can get a deb package with the software, that has only few dependecies, and install it with "dpkg -i ...deb" | 08:52 |
| elky | Myrtti, he was baiting attention. | 08:52 |
| lstarnes | sar_lisp: try cp -- -1.txt 1.txt | 08:52 |
| ananth_ | anybody help me 2 install bin file | 08:52 |

| heimdal | I was wondering if it was possible to have grub load a daemon. Ie (Command Line Ubuntu) as one choice and then (GNOME Ubuntu) as another? (All I would need to do is run GDM in GNOME UBUNTU) | 09:03 |
| Chris8 | mechdave: errors from what command? Network manager is showing no connection and says SIOCGIFFLAGS error: No such device | 09:03 |
| wapko | heimdal: if you dont want gdm to load. just ad 'text' to a kernel line in grub | 09:04 |
| Chris8 | mechdave: the last entry in lshw is disabled, for an ethernet device pan0; could be issue? | 09:05 |

| wapko | codered1444: is it maybe a port forwading issue ? | 09:12 |

| vise | MindVirus, Okay.. Gimme a few more minutes.. | 09:32 |
| mechdave | Saruji, have you tried sudo apt-get -f install linux-image-server | 09:33 |
| Saruji | mechdave during installation it told me that it couldnt install the packages that I had selected, so I just installed LAMP and then went back to install (during the installation) and selected the rest, like ssh, dns | 09:33 |
| Saruji | mechdave no I haven't let me give it a shot | 09:33 |

| cehr | mechdave, no dice, firefox still errors even in safe-mode and doesn't try and make a new .mozilla or anything either... hmm | 09:34 |
| mechdave | Saruji, maybe if you reboot it and then try again | 09:35 |
| helloimme | it wouldn't respond... I had to force it shut. (by holding the power button) | 09:35 |
| mechdave | Flannel, the -f according to man is for fix broken | 09:35 |
| Saruji | mechdave ok doing so now | 09:35 |

| mechdave | Chris8, Nah mate, getting there | 09:36 |
| Chris8 | mechdave: you're loverly | 09:37 |
| mechdave | Chris8, looks like your card is recignised by the system but there is no interface associated with it | 09:37 |

| administrator__ | can onboard wireless doit mechdave | 09:39 |
| azlon | how do i enable restricted drivers in Jaunty? ubuntu's site only talks about 8.10 and it says System >Administration > Hardware Drivers then check a box... i dont have a box to check | 09:39 |
| mechdave | administrator__, I have zero experience with wireless pxe, I always used ethernet pxe | 09:39 |
| vise | MindVirus, Download this package called gnome-alsamixer. It will give you a lot of volume controls. Try tweaking all of them and see if you get the volume you deserve... | 09:39 |
| Saruji | mechdave thank you for your help, I"m going to try and reinstall it again | 09:40 |
| MindVirus | vise, alright. I'll tell you about it in a second. | 09:40 |

| amine | hateball: can you try please an example given in the man of time? | 09:45 |
| aim | any one know how to solve Dolphin file manager won't mount Ntfs partitions? | 09:45 |

| ikonia | indus: tons of monitoring tools available ranging from nice graph tools to ncusres tools like top | 09:52 |

| azlon | indus: how do i get a screenshot? i thought it was ctrl+print screen | 09:53 |
| indus | azlon: alt prtscrn | 09:53 |
| administrator__ | mechdave do u work for any company | 09:53 |
| richardcavell | indus it keeps a history and shows you a graph. gkrellm is the most sophisticated monitoring software I know of for Linux. | 09:53 |
| vise | apt-get is telling me that there are a few packages that had been installed automatically and are no longer required. Should i trust it ans use apt-get autoremove? I have installed stuff from sources too. I don't always use the package manager. | 09:53 |
| richardcavell | vise, why wouldn't you trust it? | 09:54 |
| mechdave | administrator__, if you can find a boot disk to activate your wireless card and configure it with an ap and then connect to a pxe server and download an image, then it will work | 09:54 |
| mechdave | administrator__, I do this for fun :) | 09:54 |
| indus | richardcavell: the thing is , system monitor also shows this,but does gkrellm save this data so i can check whats going on when i was running an application? | 09:54 |
| vise | richardcavell, Since i have installed packages using sources too. That means it might not have the correct information. right? | 09:54 |
| progre55 | hi everyone! I want to do an update of packages, but I shouldn't reboot the machine.. how do I specify apt to install only those updates that do not require a reboot? :) | 09:54 |

| azlon | indus: http://imagebin.org/55159 | 09:54 |
| ikonia | indus: just search for monitoring | 09:55 |
| ikonia | indus: there are many options | 09:55 |
| richardcavell | vise, if you downloaded the sources as a package it shouldn't make any difference | 09:55 |
| administrator__ | mechdave: any idea how to do | 09:55 |
| aim | azlon> how do i enable restricted drivers? have you check this web link https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video-dvd.html | 09:55 |

| indus | richardcavell: aah you did mention it saves history,sorry i missed it | 09:55 |
| Chris8 | mechdave: best i can find is that there WAS a version of madwifi that supported this chipset | 09:55 |
| mechdave | azlon, your driver is already in use | 09:55 |
| ikonia | jim__: ls -R | 09:55 |
| vise | richardcavell, I downloaded few softwares in the tar.gz/tar.bz2 form and did configure, make, make install on them without concerning the package manager. | 09:55 |
| richardcavell | indus, it only saves history as a graph | 09:55 |
| mechdave | Chris8, was? | 09:56 |
| Chris8 | mechdave: sigh | 09:56 |
| richardcavell | indus, it'll keep your CPU history for about 2 minutes | 09:56 |
| jim__ | ikonia, thanks | 09:56 |
| azlon | mechdave: is that the restricted driver? | 09:56 |
| richardcavell | vise, then how does your package manager know that they exist? | 09:56 |

| Chris8 | mechdave: can you suggest a driver for my PCI network adaptor? ath9k was really spotty... | 09:56 |
| mechdave | Chris8, If you can chase down the version that supported your card and install that, then there is a good chance it will work | 09:57 |
| richardcavell | Anyone here running Ubuntu on an Intel Macintosh? | 09:57 |
| Chris8 | mechdave: it was poop | 09:57 |
| azlon | mechdave: basically i cant run compiz... i get an error when i try to enable Normal or Extra... i thought it had to do with my drivers | 09:57 |
| indus | richardcavell: iam trying to monitor cpu usage in a game, and i want to troubleshoot my lag | 09:57 |
| vise | richardcavell, It doesnt.. These packages it mentions that are no longer required, have been installed with packages that i installed from the package manager. But what if the source installs were using them.. I might be confusing you.. If so. never mind.. I will just do an autoremove if the disk space is critical.. | 09:57 |
| mechdave | azlon, you need to paste the errors please | 09:57 |
| indus | richardcavell: whether gkrellm can save 30 min? | 09:57 |
| richardcavell | indus, it would still work as long as you exit the game and look at the graph within a couple of minutes | 09:58 |
| Pokesomi | hello | 09:58 |
| indus | richardcavell: ok ill try it tonight | 09:58 |
| richardcavell | vise, I understand what you mean. But it shouldn't make any difference. | 09:58 |
| mechdave | Chris8, what was the card again? | 09:58 |
| indus | mechdave: what is a sea of red? | 09:58 |

| mechdave | richardcavell, all you do is type their nick first, some chat software has tab completion | 10:19 |
| lstarnes | administrator__: yes | 10:19 |
| richardcavell | Microsoft is the most proprietary of all | 10:19 |
| lstarnes | administrator__: you need a license to use windows in any case | 10:20 |
| richardcavell | mechdave: yeah, I've figured that out now | 10:20 |

| moymoy | johnibanez: open up Partition editor (gparted) on the liveCD and do a disk check on your drives | 10:54 |
| johnibanez | when ever I boot to my Ubuntu installation, when ever I reach the login screen my mouse and keyboard wont work @ indus | 10:54 |
| Pokesomi | hey richard are you there | 10:54 |
| moymoy | johnibanez: that's the first thing you should do after improperly shutting down your computer | 10:54 |
| indus | johnibanez: what is your graphics card | 10:54 |
| johnibanez | Okay moymoy, I'll do that right now. Im on my live CD. | 10:54 |
| cehr | MindVirus: are you running 64-bit ubuntu? | 10:54 |
| MindVirus | Aye. | 10:55 |
| johnibanez | I dont have a graphics card indus. Im running on a laptop. It's onboard i think. | 10:55 |
| yurikoles | why use gparted? fsck it! | 10:55 |
| indus | moymoy: my pc shuts down improperly 2 daily, i neve do it | 10:55 |
| richardcavell | mobi-sheep: I am running xchat with a theme now | 10:55 |
| indus | !fsck | 10:55 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. 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 | 10:55 |
| mobi-sheep | richardcavell: Nice! XChat Black? | 10:55 |

| richardcavell | mobi-sheep: no it's not | 10:57 |
| moymoy | indus: it isn't infallible.. it only does a quick check to see if the fs is marked clean .. because i've experienced lockups and did a manual fsck only to find errors in my fs even though fsck, at bootup, marked it as clean | 10:57 |

| moymoy | indus: i hope so too | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip | amine: ping, simple yet effective | 10:59 |
| indus | moymoy: i know it can mess the drive though am iam thinking of buying an ups | 10:59 |
| moymoy | indus: linux tends to load everything onto RAM and hardly uses the HDD if it doesn't need to.. i guess that allows it to be improperly shutdown | 11:00 |
| mobi-sheep | richardcavell: 2.8.6-2.1ubuntu4 | 11:00 |
| amine | I mean a tool for web pages for example | 11:00 |

| richardcavell | mobi, I think you're right | 11:00 |
| defrysk | xchat-gnome is ugly | 11:00 |
| indus | richardcavell: install xchat side by side and compare feature | 11:00 |
| ActionParsnip | amine: its awesome, we use it loads were i work to monitor our web interfaces | 11:00 |
| richardcavell | well, I want to change it if possible because my xchat hangs if I try to update my channel list | 11:00 |

| indus | mobi-sheep: why, its more than enough for me | 11:01 |
| administrator__ | hi | 11:01 |
| moymoy | indus: i watched a demo of AmigaOS and apparently, the powerbutton is the "shutdown" .. no need to shutdown cleanly, and it boots up in a few seconds too | 11:01 |
| richardcavell | indus: I've given it a good 5 minutes each time. I have a bandwidth monitor, and it does appear to be downloading, but it doesn't unhang | 11:01 |
| indus | moymoy: well,power button is shutdown for my system also? why? | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | richardcavell: anything in dmesg when it hangs? | 11:02 |
| administrator__ | hi everone | 11:02 |
| moymoy | indus: but windows tends to swap a lot and uses pagefiles with the files are fragmented | 11:02 |
| qe2eqe | So if a script has a permisison that the script interpreter doesn't, will it jive? | 11:02 |
| richardcavell | ActionParsnip: um... what is that and how do I tell? | 11:02 |
| indus | moymoy: its amother board feature | 11:02 |
| indus | moymoy: yeah swaps a lot more true, hdd Noisy | 11:02 |
| mobi-sheep | indus: It just is. It took xchat and turned it into something silly. (eg branding it xchat-gnome). Gnome do that to improve if they think it need to be improved. | 11:02 |
| hrga | anyone having troubles with installing/configuring Compiz try this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion | 11:03 |

| defrysk | xchat-gnome is a useless xchat spin | 11:03 |
| cehr | MindVirus, try running 'sudo alsactl store' | 11:03 |
| richardcavell | ActionParsnip: thanks for the info, I'll remember that but for now I'm going to download xchat proper | 11:04 |
| moymoy | smuxi has such a good UI.. only thing xchat has over smuxi is file transfer | 11:04 |
| ubuntistas | http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/03/recover-deleted-files-in-ubuntu-debian.html | 11:04 |

| ActionParsnip | administrator__: not me | 11:05 |
| The-IT | hi could anyone please give some good reasons on why i should swich to Ubuntu? | 11:05 |
| richardcavell | all I want is a client that lets me chat with a minimum of clutter | 11:05 |
| qe2eqe | The-IT, We love you | 11:05 |
| CosmicChaos | The-IT: MS | 11:05 |
| ActionParsnip | The-IT: depends what you want from your OS | 11:06 |
| defrysk | The-IT, no | 11:06 |
| administrator__ | i can't display ppts in mozilla | 11:06 |
| ActionParsnip | The-IT: and if you are happy with what you are currently using | 11:06 |
| moymoy | richardcavell: truthfully, i just picked up IRC today... so i'm new to all this, but i found smuxi to have a very developed UI.. sadly, it lacked some of the features i'm after. Now i'm using weechat | 11:06 |
| ubuntistas | how to uncomment pdf file lines any clue i don't get it | 11:06 |
| qe2eqe | The-IT, you can install apps from the command line, i.e., apt-get install openoffice.org will do most everything that happens when I buy a $150 piece of MS software and put the cd and click ok, ok, ok, (type name), ok, ok, ok. | 11:06 |
| richardcavell | moymoy: I'm downloading xchat, so we'll see how we go | 11:06 |
| The-IT | ActionParsnip, i was just wander why one would choose Ubuntu over windows | 11:06 |
| The-IT | qe2eqe, thats cool | 11:07 |
| ubuntistas | http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/03/recover-deleted-files-in-ubuntu-debian.html | 11:07 |
| richardcavell | The-IT, I like Ubuntu because all the software is free and easy to install | 11:07 |
| CosmicChaos | The-IT: the problems switch from every week reinstalling windows to every day inform yourself how to get the problems solved | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | The-IT: personally I only chat and web browse so I can use any OS. I don't pay for Linux but have topay for windwows, so I save cas | 11:07 |
| moncky | The-IT: I use Linux because I prefer the enviroment compared to windows | 11:07 |
| ddm | could anyone check if .yml files are being displayed in gedit file browser. It stoped being shown today, maybe there some buggy update | 11:07 |

| moymoy | richardcavell: xchat's pretty good at letting you distinguish messages from other activity.. but that's about all it's good for... smuxi lacks that, but everything else about it is good | 11:08 |
| cehr | MindVirus, if the previous command doesn't work then try running alsamixer as root and make sure everything is up 100%, then run 'sudo alsactl store' again. if that doesn't work then I don't know | 11:10 |

| CosmicChaos | arand: i know people claiming simplicity is usefull. whell what the mean is simple visualisation... but windows does not only visualisize simple... it IS simple, and that from my point of view means it is not usefull for any complex thing, and i do ver complex stuff, so windows is not an option | 11:20 |

| ubottu | shaullx: netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 11:30 |
| juniecho | actionparsnip: but doesn't that mean i have to disable dhcp in my wireless router? | 11:30 |
| mobi-sheep | shaullx: I think it is just you. | 11:30 |
| zzxx | how general user can bind privilleged tcp/udp port ? | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | juniecho: no, you just set the server box to static ip. The rest of the computers will be able to use dhcp | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | juniecho: if a system is using a static ip it will never request an IP from the pool, provided its IP address falls into the subnet mask then it can communicate | 11:31 |

| laeg | ActionParsnip, bazhang: is there anyway to check if they're the proprietary or open source version? | 11:33 |
| ActionParsnip | juniecho: follow the same format as what is currently in there | 11:33 |
| mechdave | juniecho, can you assign a static ip address from the router based on your MAC address? | 11:33 |
| mobi-sheep | richardcavell: You see it? | 11:33 |
| bazhang | laeg, that would be the proprietary ones | 11:33 |
| ActionParsnip | laeg: if you run: lshw -C display | grep nv | 11:33 |

| moymoy | kunal: are you trying to make your laptop use your phone to connect to the internet? | 11:48 |

| NET||abuse | moymoy, actually i'm getting it again, i just did that, got a nautilus window up, the icons seemed to reappear, then i clicked on the bookmark for the smb mounted folder, it died and icons vanished again?? | 11:50 |
| moymoy | kunal: i don't think ubuntu comes with any.. do some google searches.. | 11:50 |

| moymoy | NET||abuse: did you mount using fstab or with a 'sudo mount'? | 11:52 |
| NET||abuse | yeh, it's in bookmarks, used places to make link | 11:52 |
| NET||abuse | the connect-to server wizard or just browsing network through nautilus and bookmarking | 11:52 |
| NET||abuse | has worked fine for ages, | 11:52 |

| moymoy | NET||abuse: are you able to ls your mounted directory? or does it freeze the terminal? | 11:53 |
| NET||abuse | moymoy i'll check, one note, i have a vista vm and it's able to open the same share no probl | 11:53 |
| NET||abuse | the share is on a linux server with samba, also it's nfs mounted across from another server with big batch of drives.. | 11:54 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: why can't you just mount with nfs then? | 11:54 |
| NET||abuse | so it's me connect to samba on server A, the share points at /mnt/data/shares/Sharename where /mnt/data is an nfs mount point to Server B :) | 11:54 |

| spudCakePie | ls -a | 11:56 |
| spudCakePie | er, -l | 11:56 |
| JoeM | spudCakePie easiest way I know of is to open up synaptic, look for that package and look at the package details | 11:56 |
| Slart | human: ls -l | 11:56 |
| Slart | human: or just right click in nautilus | 11:56 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: xD okay.. well gvfs mounted shares are usually mounted on folders in the ~/.gvfs directory.. have you looked in there? try with nautilus too | 11:56 |
| human | and how to change the permission | 11:56 |
| Slart | human: chmod | 11:57 |
| ggeecko | hello | 11:57 |
| NET||abuse | moymoy, just went in on terminal, .gvfs/Public Share on blah blah, no problem | 11:57 |
| moymoy | human: type in "man chmod" to get details on how to use it.. if you don't want to use the terminal, you can just right-click and click on properties, permissions | 11:57 |
| NET||abuse | moymoy: can list that dir and subdirs no prob | 11:57 |
| Slart | human: there is a long list of switches and stuff for chmod.. man chmod will tell you more.. or google for chmod, I'm sure there are lots of small tutorials out there | 11:58 |

| dury | hi there all :) | 11:58 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: i see.. delete the current bookmark you have and make another bookmark pointing at the folder in ~/.gvfs =] | 11:58 |
| human | okay Slart | 11:58 |
| Slart | laeg: in the grub configuration file, I would guess | 11:58 |
| JoeM | I want to change /etc/alternatives/xinput-all_ALL to point to scim-bridge, how do I do that? | 11:58 |
| Slart | laeg: it's /boot/grub/menu.lst | 11:58 |
| spudCakePie | no, its not helpful, it lies. it says it installed the jdk in /usr/share/menu | 11:59 |
| chazco | Anyone know how to upgrade to wicd 1.6? | 11:59 |
| mobi-sheep | spudCakePie: locate sun-java6-jdk | 11:59 |
| laeg | Slart: so i just add mem=750mb anywhere? | 11:59 |
| NET||abuse | moymoy, just ps aux | grep home and i find /usr/lib/gvfs//gvfs-fuse-daemon running.. worth giving this a restart? | 11:59 |
| NET||abuse | moymoy, not sure how to do that though, if you have any ideas? | 11:59 |
| bazhang | chazco, current version is 1.5.9, why do you need the latest version | 11:59 |
| Slart | laeg: no, it's a big file, with instructions in the actual file.... open it by running "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" | 12:00 |
| laeg | Slart: ty | 12:00 |
| chazco | bazhang - Few slight bugs in the current version which are fixed in 1.6.0. 1.5.9 in the repo is now out of date. | 12:00 |
| Slart | laeg: make a backup before you start changing things around.. in case something bad happens.. oh.. and after you've edited that file you have to run "sudo update-grub" in a terminal | 12:00 |
| bazhang | chazco, installing outside of the package management system is not a good idea for such a trivial issue | 12:01 |

| chazco | bazhang - I would agree, but some of them arent so trivial... network manager is unable to use my wifi, wicd 1.5.9 can, but sometimes cannot connect which can cause issues | 12:02 |

| richardcavell | mobi-sheep: how do I make it go some color other than red when someone mentions me? I'm color blind and red looks weird to me | 12:04 |
| Slart | laeg: or whatever you wanted the mem switch to be | 12:05 |
| NET||abuse | moymoy, just checked the .gvfs dir from within nautilus, i try to click on the mounted share in .gvfs and same thing as before happens, it just vanished and takes icons off desktop... i'll try wha tyou say, delete and remake book mark now.. hold on 2 secs | 12:05 |
| axos88 | lstarnes, oh shit... right... have to think about it, but I don't really have much right now besides busybox and the kernel. however the wierd thing is it is building for a very long time (2,4 Ghz, 256 RAM, about 1h30), and produces the same binary if i remove a lot of stuff | 12:05 |
| axos88 | i use make bzImage | 12:05 |
| bazhang | axos88, please no cursing | 12:05 |
| axos88 | sry | 12:05 |
| lstarnes | axos88: a lot of stuff is still compiled but kept in separate modules instead of in the bzimage | 12:06 |
| NET||abuse | moymoy, woah,, ok, even clicking on Network in nautilus makes it do the same thing, i deleted the share bookmark then tried to click network to go bookmark the share again, vanished | 12:06 |
| axos88 | lstarnes, even if they are unchecked completely (not M, empty box) | 12:06 |
| lstarnes | axos88: in that case it wouldn't be built unless something else being built required it | 12:07 |
| axos88 | lstarnes, ok, so maybe that's why it is building so long, but why is it producing the same binary? | 12:07 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: hmm this is why i hate samba shares.. and they cause hangs at shutdown | 12:08 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: for me, nautilus always crashed or froze when my samba share was down | 12:08 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: but your server is still up and running, right? | 12:08 |

| Slart | JoeM: hmm... sounds odd that one failed export line would kill X.. | 12:25 |
| EagleScreen | alasdairsim, you will need to close the gnome applet | 12:25 |
| Dr_Willis | becomingGuru: you can install python 2.6 - and if the applety be call it as 'python2.6' instead of just 'python' it should work then.. or you may need to edit the applet code to call the older python | 12:26 |

| becomingGuru | Dr_Willis, I have python 2.5 2.6 3.0 and 3.1 on my system, but it is by default using python23.0 | 12:26 |
| jrib | becomingGuru: why don't you pastebin what led you to your current conclusions? | 12:26 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: if it's mounted using gnome, then you just click the eject button, no? | 12:27 |

| ActionParsnip | iMatter: then shutdown the pc, take out the cd and power up | 12:27 |
| JoeM | slart before that happened I ran two commands, im-switch -s scim-bridge, and sudo update-alternatives --config xinput-all_ALL | 12:27 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: Yes, and it was on the % part ( i chose the install option from the first-boot part thing) | 12:27 |
| becomingGuru | But on installation i get the following error message INFO: using unknown version '/usr/bin/python3.0' (debian_defaults not up-to-date?) | 12:27 |

| NET||abuse | hmm, moymoy just unmounted it in nautilus, the .gvfs subdirectory for it was gone, then i tried to just browse the network again, still crashing nautilus? | 12:29 |
| NET||abuse | so not even mounted and it still crashsed | 12:29 |
| NET||abuse | weird | 12:29 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: if it's mounted using gvfs, the umount command probably won't work.. and mounts mounted using 'sudo mount' can't be umounted using gnome | 12:29 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: what are you clicking when it crashes? or does it just crash by itself? | 12:29 |
| GeorgeJ | I've managed to set up mdadm. Made myself a software raid array. Now its syncing for some reason even if the paritions are blank. Is there any way to stop it from syncing and make both member partitions blank? | 12:29 |

| lstarnes | NET||abuse: I've seen noticeable improvements on amd64 | 12:31 |
| moymoy | NET||abuse: instead of using gvfs, you can try mounting using sudo mount | 12:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest28658: you can rename the current /usr/bin/firefox and make /usr/bin/firefox be a symlink to whatever runs the new one | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest28658: its in the normal package manager tools.. it makes a menu item called shiretoko | 12:31 |

| Dr_Willis | linduxed: i got them both installed.. i dont see much need for me to use 3.5 yet. | 12:34 |
| linduxed | ActionParsnip: its not a fix, i want tracemonkey among other things | 12:34 |

| NET||abuse | Dr_Willis, there's nothing in it on the 64bit side of use, i was interested in the new javascript engine, but they've not built it with 64bit support as i understand. something to do with not using proper styles of library linking | 12:35 |

| Vinnnnn | Hey im really sorry, I just have a quick question, Im trying to install a theme which is just png's and an xml, and I was wondering how to install it? | 12:37 |
| NET||abuse | Dr_Willis, what did they say, tracemonkey is meant to be 20 to 40 times faster than the old JS vm,, it just falls backto the old one in 64 bit i believe | 12:37 |
| AlexJ | i broke the apache config fiel and i want to make a fresh install of apache2 | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeM: cd /; sudo grep -R "stuff" * | 12:37 |
| AlexJ | i did an apt-get purge apache2 and then an apt-get install apache2, but it wasn't resinstalled | 12:37 |
| Slart | JoeM: sorry... that will only search from the current directory grep -R "blablabla" /* would search from root | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeM: the sudo just suppresses access denied messages | 12:37 |
| NET||abuse | Dr_Willis, so we're deprived of imrpoved js, which still isn't even as fast as opera's js vm, V8 or the IE8 js engine | 12:38 |

| dury | I've got this iso -> ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386.iso is it possible to burn it in a dvd? | 12:48 |

| pokesomi | richard are you there? | 12:49 |
| Vinnnnn | dury: I think you can only burn it to a cd | 12:49 |
| OttifantSir | iMatter: A forum thread with a solution: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=464836 | 12:49 |
| Slart | dury: I'm not sure but I think so.. there are dvd-images available too | 12:49 |
| Vinnnnn | dury: :p who doesn't have CD's laying around. | 12:49 |
| dury | or I have to download an special one for dvd? | 12:49 |

| Dr_Willis | ive never had luck burning a cd image onto a 'dvd' disk | 12:50 |
| Dr_Willis | I also tend to use unetbootin to just burn/install the cd image to a bootable flash disk | 12:50 |
| Vinnnnn | dury: Maybe you could rip the iso and burn the whole thing to a dvd, hmm | 12:50 |
| moymoy | iMatter: error 22 is "file not found" right? | 12:50 |
| Akiva | Severity1: I was told both of those are for personal money management, not invoicing clients and payments received. Is that wrong? | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | you could mount the cd and then make a dvd iso from the data, not sure if it would work | 12:51 |
| bazhang | dury, of course you can burn to dvd; will waste some space is all | 12:51 |
| Vinnnnn | bazhang: I don't think you can, I tried with a backup copy of office | 12:51 |
| Vinnnnn | bazhang: since its an ISO | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | i've started doing usb installs now, much smoother | 12:51 |
| bazhang | Vinnnnn, iso of course you can | 12:51 |
| JoeM | slart could it be that some of the... hell with it, I have an idea | 12:52 |
| Vinnnnn | bazhang: If you can, I've never had any luck with it | 12:52 |
| JoeM | slart I'm positive the problem is with scim, i will just remove scim | 12:52 |
| dury | bazhang: sure? | 12:52 |
| Slart | JoeM: that might fix it =) | 12:52 |
| bazhang | dury, alternately , to not waste space, you could get the dvd.iso | 12:52 |
| Vinnnnn | bazhang: but whether it's the cd version or the dvd version wouldn't it use the same amount of space? | 12:53 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: Error 15 file not found. | 12:53 |
| JoeM | slart easy enough to reinstall later | 12:53 |
| Slart | JoeM: sure | 12:53 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: i'd reconfigure grub. Sounds like the install didnt complete. | 12:54 |

| ActionParsnip | Dr_Willis: 128Mb + 64Mb + 61Mb onboard video (?) | 12:59 |
| ActionParsnip | thats mathswang!!! | 12:59 |
| bazhang | doubtful the live installer could even show up with that amount of ram though | 13:00 |
| ActionParsnip | bazhang: me too, think its gonna be an alternate install | 13:00 |
| mobi-sheep | dury: Just use it for something. Small server or torrentbox. | 13:00 |
| Severity1 | Akiva well Grisbi is almost the same as GnuCash | 13:01 |
| bazhang | ActionParsnip, thought it took 192MB or so for the livecd | 13:01 |

| JoeM | slart well, not working... but now .xsession-errors only has two lines: /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup... then that line | 13:02 |
| bazhang | dury, alternate or minimal installer, add lxde or another very lightweight wm | 13:02 |
| ActionParsnip | bazhang: not sure tbh | 13:02 |
| Slart | JoeM: hmm.. but you still can't login normally? | 13:02 |

| Slart | JoeM: mm.. I've been googling for anything related to scim and login problems.. but all I've found are really old threads.. | 13:09 |

| linduxed | moymoy: ok the looks are a factor too | 13:09 |

| coz_ | moymoy, or joe's window manager | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | jercos: you can copy the files from the dvd to hard drive and play them from there also :) with the right player | 13:10 |
| Slart | comatsu: but I think you need to give it the device name.. not the mount point.. ie /dev/sda3 instead of /media/sda3 | 13:10 |

| coz_ | moymoy, ubuntu can be a bit resource intensive sometimes but if you want a linux that you can set for you hardware specifically I would go gentoo you have to configure for your hardware fedora and suse also thed to hog at times and if the window manager is KDE 4.3 then there goes more resources | 13:30 |
| ActionParsnip | moymoy: a stock install of ubuntu is quite slow, there are steps you can take to get more horsepower | 13:31 |

| coz_ | moymoy, you will be please with opensolaris if for nothing else it's speed | 13:33 |
| coz_ | Titan8990, ah ok :) | 13:33 |
| civixier | In both desktop and nautilus I mean | 13:33 |
| Slart | civixier: it might be possible but I've never seen it done | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | moymoy: thats one thing yes. you can also take these steps: http://digg.com/linux_unix/How_to_make_Ubuntu_extremely_fast | 13:33 |
| johnrdavisjr | Has anyone had any problems with a Ubuntu 9.04 32bit edition using excess CPU usage in pidgin? | 13:33 |
| richardcavell | john on 64-bit 9.04 my pidgin hangs | 13:34 |
| civixier | Slart: Ah, okay. Would be a nice feature though :) | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | moymoy: you can also play with hdparm (with caution) to get more data from your slow hard drives | 13:34 |
| hrga | Is this bug in Ubuntu? When I open window to change desktop background, the window is not drawed with titlebar? | 13:34 |
| roey_ | *drawn | 13:34 |
| Eledran | I have no problems with pidgin | 13:34 |
| moymoy | ActionParsnip: arch-like install for ubuntu.. i like that. But without the ubuntu-desktop pakage being installed, what happens during distribution upgrades? | 13:34 |
| indus_ | richardcavell: hey i have 64 bit but pidgin is fine | 13:34 |
| velcroshooz | anyone know offhand if any linux music apps support AVRCP with wireless headsets? or another app to add it globally or what have you so i can use it with current music apps | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | johnrdavisjr: try closing pidgin then renaming ~/.purple | 13:34 |
| indus_ | richardcavell: happens everytime? | 13:34 |
| Titan8990 | hrga, sounds like your window manager has crashed or is not running | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | moymoy: you will need one of the desktop packages installed (really annoying) | 13:34 |
| richardcavell | indus_: yeah | 13:34 |
| Slart | civixier: afaik there is an app that is responsible for creating the icons for each file.. depending on the filetype it can extract text, make a thumbnail etc ... I guess you could modify that so it takes into account the file size | 13:34 |
| ubuntu | hi all | 13:34 |

| johnrdavisjr | ActionParsnip: Why wil lrenaming help that situation? | 13:35 |
| ActionParsnip | johnrdavisjr: if its still no ood, you can rename back. If its better then you know its the profile | 13:35 |
| indus_ | richardcavell: did u run it from terminal and see? | 13:35 |
| moymoy | ActionParsnip: so my desktop needs to be stripped down again after every upgrade? | 13:35 |
| Exor | does anyone know how to do remote assistance from ubuntu to windows xp ? | 13:35 |
| johnrdavisjr | ActionParsnip: 10-4. I could always install 64bit edition and see if there is a problem. lol | 13:35 |
| ActionParsnip | johnrdavisjr: when you rerun you will get a stock profile which will hopefully be faster, if it is then there is an issue with your profilr | 13:35 |
| richardcavell | indus_: no but I can do it if you're really interested | 13:36 |
| Slart | Exor: I would use vnc | 13:36 |
| indus_ | richardcavell: iam really interested :) really | 13:36 |
| === sean is now known as Guest2087 | ||

| civixier | Slart: Sounds like it wouldn't be that hard to figure out then, thanks :D | 13:36 |
| Exor | vnc works on windows ? | 13:36 |
| wdyrt | yes | 13:36 |
| Slart | Exor: yes | 13:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Exor: yes | 13:36 |
| wdyrt | i use tightvnc on windows | 13:36 |

| johnrdavisjr | What is ubuntu's stance on using ext4? | 13:37 |
| richardcavell | johnrdavisjr: there's a post about it on ubuntuforums.org. It's considered potentially unstable but they're thinking of putting it in 9.10 | 13:38 |
| Flasbang73 | My ubuntu 9.04 desktop 64-bit installation has been extremely slow lately | 13:38 |
| DEBUNTU73 | WHERE DOES IST LIVE ? - Is there a shell command that would show me on which filesystem a given file or dirname "lives" on (resides) ? something like where-u-from /home/somedir that points me to / or /home or /dev/sdb6 etc ?? | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | johnrdavisjr: i wouldnt use it in a production system personally | 13:38 |
| enzo | hi | 13:38 |
| johnrdavisjr | ActionParsnip: I have not personally used it, but was curious. | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | DEBUNTU73: you can run: mount | 13:38 |
| richardcavell | indus_: it works now. I notice that there was an update since last time I used it | 13:38 |
| enzo | someone knows where are stored crontab for users ? | 13:39 |
| indus_ | richardcavell: hmm | 13:39 |
| johnrdavisjr | Does anyone have any experience with zfs and ubuntu server? | 13:39 |
| Exor | uhm | 13:39 |
| ActionParsnip | DEBUNTU73: then you can work out which of those mount points the file lives, which will give the fs | 13:39 |
| Slart | DEBUNTU73: I haven't seen anything that does that.. it might be useful though | 13:39 |

| Slart | Flasbang73: more details.. what is slow, examples.. what kind of system.. any special hardware? | 13:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Flasbang73: try running top and watching a while | 13:40 |
| indus_ | Flasbang73: try using htop | 13:41 |
| enzo | ActionParsnip: those links always explain cron without indicating where there are stored... | 13:41 |
| moymoy | vegombrei: i'm using the Chromium build for Linux .. so far it's been great | 13:41 |
| hrga | ok, I solved it. It was compiz | 13:41 |

| C-S-B_ | moymoy: does it have flash yet? | 13:41 |
| indus_ | enzo: /etc/crontab | 13:41 |
| moymoy | vegombrei: you can get it from the Fabien tassen PPA | 13:41 |
| digitaloktay_ | Wow Ubuntu 8.04 LTS runs great, which version is the next LTS ?? | 13:41 |
| richardcavell | indus_: I'm glad you asked me about pidgin, because that last update got it working | 13:41 |
| enzo | no it's the system wide cron | 13:41 |
| moymoy | C-S-B_: nope.. no flash yet | 13:41 |
| Flasbang73 | when you send a message to a specific person do u put there name like this "name:" or like this "name" | 13:41 |
| vegombrei | moymoy: check out the link i pasted | 13:41 |
| DEBUNTU73 | ActionParsnip: yep.. that's the problem.. I need to work it out :) need to hack several commands like mount, ls -d and more to actualy find out where a path is actualiy comning from. | 13:41 |
| Slart | enzo: I've found them in the past.. they are in some weird place.. /usr/lib perhaps.. I can't remember | 13:42 |
| indus_ | richardcavell: iam always glad when something works :) | 13:42 |
| C-S-B_ | moymoy: whens the projected release date? | 13:42 |

| === richard is now known as Guest54053 | ||

| richardcavell | indus_: well, I guess so am I | 13:42 |
| enzo | no indus_, not the place for user cron | 13:42 |
| moymoy | vegombrei: what link? | 13:42 |
| enzo | I'm talking about the crontab -l -u lambda | 13:43 |
| moymoy | C-S-B_: no release date, they just have a mailing list on google... but chromium is shaping up pretty good | 13:43 |
| indus_ | no? | 13:43 |
| Flasbang73 | nobody is helping me | 13:43 |

| Slart | vegombrei: thanks | 13:43 |
| enzo | you know where they are indus_ ? | 13:44 |
| Flasbang73 | thank you | 13:44 |
| C-S-B_ | moymoy: I'm hoping manufacturers will be more inclined to build linux drivers when googles on board! | 13:44 |
| Flasbang73 | pidgin | 13:44 |
| indus_ | enzo: wait 1 sec google knows | 13:44 |
| Flasbang73 | bazhang: im using pidgin | 13:44 |

| bazhang | not certain if pidgin offers tab-complete Flasbang73 | 13:44 |
| ActionParsnip | DEBUNTU73: sounds like a project, you could grep the mount against the output of the full path of the file, see if any match | 13:44 |
| enzo | ah yes ! thanks indus_ | 13:45 |
| Flasbang73 | tab complete? | 13:45 |
| bazhang | Flasbang73, such as baz <tab> to complete my name | 13:45 |
| indus_ | enzo: most welcome | 13:45 |
| digitaloktay_ | !lts | 13:45 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04) | 13:45 |
| Kri5m_ | !gdm | 13:45 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gdm | 13:45 |
| JoeM | slart ok... got another idea then | 13:45 |
| Flasbang73 | bazhang: ummmm what other client could i use | 13:45 |
| indus_ | anyone know why i should use 9.04 and not 8.04? | 13:45 |
| Slart | JoeM: oh? let's hear it | 13:45 |
| richardcavell | hey, what does it mean when ubottu puts a bang in front of things, like !Hardy? | 13:46 |
| Pici | richardcavell: They are also bot triggers | 13:46 |
| geremy | #eeepc | 13:46 |
| indus_ | Flasbang73: what is it you are looking for? | 13:46 |
| JoeM | slart make another user and see if they have the same issue... that will at least tell me if it's in /etc or users config | 13:46 |
| Slart | indus_: for a production system where you don't need the latest and greatest of everything.. but something that is stable for a longer time | 13:46 |
| Slart | JoeM: excellent idea..good thinking there | 13:46 |
| Flasbang73 | indus_: my ubuntu installation has been extremely slow | 13:46 |
| bazhang | Flasbang73, there are a large number: weechat irssi, xchat, and others | 13:46 |
| richardcavell | Pici: So it's just letting me know that I can ask ubottu about those topics? | 13:47 |
| JoeM | slart and new user has no problems | 13:47 |
| indus_ | Slart: any idea if ff 3.5 is backported to hardy? I dont like the ff 3.0 , its too sluggish | 13:47 |
| Slart | richardcavell: it means you can write !hardy in the channel and ubottu will tell you about it | 13:47 |
| phant0m_ | need help movie player has a library error | 13:47 |
| indus_ | richardcavell: you can pm ubottu direct and ask so u dont flood the channel | 13:47 |

| Flasbang73 | jneves: what information do you want to know from that | 13:57 |

| indus_ | whats the problem with them mouka | 14:31 |
| flashbang73 | jneves: i have a linksys wireless-g 2.4ghz | 14:31 |
| mobi-sheep | richardcavell: Upload it. ImageShack. :3 | 14:31 |
| mouka | indus: the fonts look terrible | 14:31 |
| mouka | nothing compared to what I see when I use windows | 14:31 |
| Boohbah | mouka: try some different fonts. sudo apt-get install language-support-fonts-ar ttf-arabeyes ttf-kacst ttf-sil-scheherazade xfonts-intl-arabic | 14:31 |
| indus_ | mouka: did u try this site in windows? | 14:32 |
| mouka | yes I did | 14:32 |
| mouka | and the fonts are fine | 14:32 |
| mouka | but I installed ubuntu yesterday | 14:32 |
| flashbang73 | jneves: 54mbps broadband | 14:32 |
| mouka | and tried it, and the fonts are ugly | 14:32 |
| indus_ | mouka: try selecting character encoding in firefox views | 14:32 |
| mouka | indus: I did, but nothing has changed much | 14:33 |
| mouka | they look as ugly as they did before | 14:33 |
| indus_ | mouka: does the website offer fonts to download? | 14:33 |
| jneves | flashbang73: what's the difference in the speedtest? and which wireless card do you have? do you notice a difference when connecting a cable directly to the router? | 14:33 |
| OttifantSir | Saruji: It means that the default action of incoming connections is to deny them access. You have to make a rule for SSH that allows incoming connections | 14:33 |
| dAnon | why I always run into low graphics mode after trying to instal nvidia 185 driver | 14:33 |
| gartral | I can't make ffmpeg encode... it keeps saying "Unknown encoder 'video2mpeg'" | 14:33 |
| mouka | I don't think so | 14:33 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | indus_: ok that didnt work | 14:33 |
| zenklys | hi everybody | 14:33 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | indus_: what did you want me to do ? | 14:34 |

| freeanshu | where can i find them? | 14:34 |
| Saruji | OttifantSir: thank you for your response, is there a conf file that I can change this in? | 14:34 |
| dAnon | how do I uninstall 185 nvidia driver? | 14:34 |
| Rocko1 | if anyone has problems like me installind the ubuntu and it says: Invalid argument... IT's A BUG! - https://bugs.launchpad.net/wubi/+bug/366350 ... can anyone help me with finding another way or smth.. ? | 14:34 |
| indus_ | mouka:these things happen when sites use non unicode fonts | 14:35 |
| Boohbah | mouka: also 'sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts' | 14:35 |
| mouka | ok | 14:35 |
| Mnemonic^ | indus_: Hi .. What was the disk tool called again? | 14:35 |
| freeanshu | can any one tell me how the "Leave messages" are stored when we suspend the system? | 14:35 |
| freeanshu | where can i find them? | 14:35 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | indus_: openjre doesnt show up on synaptics package manager | 14:35 |
| flashbang73 | jneves: i just tried to do a speed test but the needle isn't even mooving | 14:35 |
| indus_ | Mnemonic^: smartmontools | 14:35 |
| Mnemonic^ | indus_: Thanks | 14:35 |
| OttifantSir | Saruji: Yes, but I don't know that route. I know Firestarter is a front-end for ufw, as is also gufw. Try sudo apt-get install <one of those> | 14:35 |
| mouka | indus: what would be a solution? | 14:35 |
| indus_ | ohletmeinnowjesu: just search for the package openjre or something | 14:35 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | indus_: yeah | 14:35 |
| zenklys | can someone explain me why wireless access point works perfectly on ubuntu and shits totally on vista? =) | 14:35 |
| Boohbah | mouka: once you have all the fonts installed you can get firefox to use them in Preferences > Content | 14:35 |
| dAnon | are you people able to install 185 nvidia driver properly or you're using 180 | 14:35 |
| flashbang73 | jneves: how do i check my wireless card? | 14:36 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | indus_: thats what i did, no result | 14:36 |
| Saruji | OttifantSir ah ok thank you | 14:36 |
| Pici | zenklys: Please mind your languag here. | 14:36 |
| Slart | freeanshu: my guess is somewhere in /var why not leave a message with some special string and grep for it? | 14:36 |
| jneves | flashbang73: pastebin a lshw | 14:36 |
| indus_ | ohletmeinnowjesu: open jdk sorry | 14:36 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | sun-java-jre on the other hand is installed | 14:36 |
| jneves | flashbang73: but cheking with a cable would be more useful | 14:36 |
| freeanshu | slart:grep in /var ? | 14:36 |

| Slart | freeanshu: mm.. lock computer, leave a message such as "awayawayaway", run "sudo grep -R "awayawayaway" /var/* | 14:39 |
| zhoujingrui1113 | hi why my streamtuner canot use live365 | 14:39 |
| indus_ | ohletmeinnowjesu: no you dont,just select this java with the command i gave you | 14:39 |
| zhoujingrui1113 | ? | 14:39 |
| zhoujingrui1113 | thanks | 14:39 |
| Pici | zenklys: If it doesn't work on Windows you should ask the Windows folks in ##windows | 14:39 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | indus_: ok its still going | 14:39 |
| flashbang73 | jneves: while i get the cable here is lshw http://paste.ubuntu.com/213629/ | 14:39 |
| indus_ | ActionParsnip: its 180.44 | 14:39 |
| dAnon | why is it all so slow, there is already 190 comming and repos are ignoring it all | 14:39 |
| zhoujingrui1113 | and also canot use shoutcast | 14:39 |
| Eledran | zenklys: it is a winwdows problem, not linux ;) | 14:39 |
| diddy | Is there a command that tells you what boot loader is used in a system (LILO/GRUB)? | 14:40 |
| zhoujingrui1113 | there is no channle | 14:40 |
| Eledran | dAnon: drivers have to be tested | 14:40 |
| ActionParsnip | theres this: https://launchpad.net/~voria/+archive/archive/+build/1096182 | 14:40 |
| zenklys | Pici, Eledran, linux people always no much better how things work than windows folks | 14:40 |
| mouka | Boohbah: I can't find the fonts I have installed in firefox | 14:40 |
| dAnon | Eledran how long can testing last? half a year, over a year? | 14:40 |
| ActionParsnip | dAnon: linux comes with no sla and no garuntees | 14:40 |
| Eledran | IDK, just untill nvidia folks want | 14:41 |
| Pici | zenklys: And yet we have a channel here just for Windows issues, we do not fix Windows issues in #ubuntu | 14:41 |
| ahmos | how i can unmount ntfs partition please? | 14:41 |
| Eledran | then they have to submit the drivers to cannonical | 14:41 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | indus_: so now i "sudo update-alternatives --config java"? | 14:41 |
| zhoujingrui1113 | is there anyone use streamtuner? | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | dAnon: try this repo, deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/voria/archive/ubuntu jaunty main | 14:41 |
| Titan8990 | ahmos, sudo umount /dev/sdxx | 14:41 |
| mouka | indus: I just finished installing several fonts, but they don't appear under firefox | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | dAnon: they have amd64 packages for 185 | 14:41 |
| Titan8990 | ahmos, where xx is the letter and number of the partition | 14:41 |
| jrib | zhoujingrui1113: best to just ask the channel your question and find out | 14:41 |
| mouka | I restarted firefox | 14:41 |
| mouka | but nothing happens | 14:41 |
| flashbang73 | jneves: i cannot find a spare ethernet cable but i can connect it directly to the modem instead | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Titan8990: you can umount from the mount point too | 14:42 |
| zhoujingrui1113 | ok | 14:42 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | indus_: so its done installing, i do this now: sudo update-alternatives --config java ? | 14:42 |
| indus_ | dAnon: adding new stuff as soon as it comes affects stability | 14:42 |
| indus_ | ohletmeinnowjesu: yes | 14:42 |
| Eledran | ahmos: or secondary click on your computer at nautilus when you list the hdds and unmount | 14:42 |
| ohletmeinnowjesu | indus_: and choose open jdk | 14:43 |
| zhoujingrui1113 | my question is streamtuner live 365 no channels | 14:43 |
| indus_ | ohletmeinnowjesu: yep | 14:43 |

| geremy | darnell export it and import to firefox :) | 14:44 |
| iMatter | Ubiquity Failed AGAIN | 14:44 |
| ActionParsnip | geremy: -h makes it (h)umanly readable | 14:44 |
| indus_ | ohletmeinnowjesu: file a bug i suggest,also ask this question in the forums | 14:44 |
| OttifantSir | Im using AWN, Compiz and Screenlets on Ubuntu 9.04. Here is a screenshot of how it looks after login: http://www.1pic2.com/out.php/i5102_Notrightatall.png I want these, and a few others to be docked to the Sidebar in Align Right Reserved mode when I reboot. At the moment, I can't even move them from their position in the top-left corner. As you can see from the screenshot, I've got no panels at all. I can change the properties of behaviour of these s | 14:44 |
| flashbang73 | jneves: the ethernet cable | 14:44 |
| Ziber | You really should do: alias screen='screen -RU irssi' tho | 14:44 |
| geremy | thanks | 14:44 |
| Pici | OttifantSir: You may want to try asking in #awn if you aren't getting an answer here. | 14:45 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: Ubiquity failed again....-.-....and the thing was saying "less than one minute remaining" | 14:45 |
| indus_ | Rocko1: try installing from live cd | 14:45 |
| flashbang73 | jneves: i only have one so i cant connet it to the router but i can connect it to the modem | 14:45 |
| === Nicolas_ is now known as Guest74565 | ||
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: did you check the cd? did you check the iso? | 14:45 |
| indus_ | Rocko1: but good you filed a bug | 14:45 |
| mrpinky | hey, how can i use the "grep" tool to only display lines beginning with "blah"? | 14:45 |
| Cube | Ziber: i can pick either one? | 14:45 |
| darnell | geremy: I need to export it from IE first? I am trying to load the favorites on a machine running only Ubuntu | 14:45 |
| usr13 | flashbang73: Bypassing a router and plugging directly into modem should not make a difference in thruoghput. | 14:45 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: yea i checked the cd no errors | 14:46 |
| llutz | mrpinky: grep ^blah file.foo | 14:46 |
| Ziber | Cube: yes, but like i said, ~/.profile is what I use. In theory, ~/.bashrc should work too :P | 14:46 |
| OttifantSir | Pici: I am just saying what I have done as changes to the desktop. AWN isn't the problem, the screenlets are | 14:46 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: the ironic part is i just did an OEM install but didn't have any idea how to use it from the OEM point (OEM one worked and fully installed...) | 14:46 |
| mrpinky | llutz, aargh i was swapping the argument and the input file :D thanks! | 14:46 |
| Cube | Ziber: ok :P and which line should i add if i want irssi to alias to screen irssi? | 14:46 |
| iMatter | so i installed over that WTF is happening to me ActionParsnip .. | 14:46 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: ok i'd try some boot options like noacpi noapic etc. Press F6 on the first cd boot screen then select some boot options to add | 14:46 |
| Ziber | Cube: alias irssi='screen -RU irssi' | 14:46 |
| Cube | Ziber: -RU? | 14:47 |
| Ziber | Cube: force reattach and use UTF-8 | 14:47 |
| Ziber | :D | 14:47 |
| Cube | ah :D | 14:47 |
| Ziber | UTF-8 will only work if you set up your terminal/ssh client and irssi to use it tho | 14:47 |
| Cube | Ziber: and just put exactly that line somewhere in ~/.profile? | 14:47 |
| indus_ | iMatter: try disconnectin internet | 14:47 |
| Ziber | Cube: yeah. just add it to the end if you want. | 14:47 |
| Cube | Ziber: ok thanks mate! | 14:47 |
| Ziber | np :) | 14:48 |
| albech | is there a flash player for 64 bit? | 14:48 |
| indus_ | iMatter: is it stuck at 82 %? | 14:48 |
| albech | !flash | 14:48 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 14:48 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: and head into bios and disable sound hardware if it is onboard | 14:48 |
| Slart | freeman_: from looking at the source code it seems that it just sends the note to libnotify.. so it's possible that it isn't saved at all | 14:48 |
| indus_ | albech: yes labs.adobe.com | 14:48 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: stuff like that can help installs | 14:48 |
| indus_ | !flash64 | 14:48 |

| flashbang73 | jneves: it doesn't let me use a cable directly | 14:48 |
| geremy | how y distribute your disk when installing lin? for example 8gb sd card? | 14:48 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: Why'd it work with the OEM alternate install? | 14:49 |
| flasbang73 | jneves: if you said anything in the past 5 min i might of missed it | 14:49 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: alternate install is a different install method so can give different results | 14:49 |
| flasbang73 | jneves: internet doesn't even work from cable | 14:49 |
| Cube | Ziber: do i have to restart or something? its not working | 14:49 |
| iAuSTERIXLAND | little test, sorry! | 14:50 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: if i do an OEM install again can you walk me through how to get to end-user.. | 14:50 |
| Boohbah | i have run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales' and i get 'Generating locales... en_US.UTF-8... up-to-date Generation complete.' however when i run 'locales' all of them are set to POSIX and not en_US.UTF-8 | 14:50 |
| Boohbah | is there something i missed? | 14:50 |
| Slart | iAuSTERIXLAND: there is a channel for tests.. #test.. they even have bots that does things to you | 14:50 |
| flasbang73 | jneves: i plugged it in and turned the wireless off | 14:50 |
| indus_ | albech: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/ | 14:50 |
| Cube | Slart: like what things? | 14:50 |
| geremy | darnell: and where is the IE? on which pc? | 14:50 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: the alternate install is the same as the desktop, just not a graphical install | 14:50 |
| flasbang73 | jneves: my computer detected it but then told me i was not connected | 14:50 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: and the annoying thing is it goes all the way through to the point where it says "less than 1min of copying until finished" THEN the installer crashes.. | 14:50 |
| Slart | Cube: pms, saying things in the channel etc | 14:51 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: Alternate OEM was graphical | 14:51 |
| iMatter | but when i booted it was temporary user with an excuteable on the desktop | 14:51 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: have you checked your ram and hard drive using the checking tools/ | 14:51 |
| usr13 | jneves: sudo dhclient | 14:51 |
| darnell | The PC it was on crashed. I was able to hook the drive up to USB and get the Favorites folder off | 14:51 |
| magnetron | hi! my computer crashed while deluge was running, now it won't start again. how do i reset the deluge state without loosing all my torrents? | 14:51 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: no...didn't think i'd need to | 14:51 |
| JoeM | arg, fsck on a 2TB partition takes FOREVER | 14:52 |
| Slart | magnetron: try starting it from a terminal.. see what it's complaining about | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: http://www.madirish.net/images/virt/ubuntu_install.gif | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: well you are getting issues, so its good to test | 14:52 |
| Slart | JoeM: yes, I think other fs might be quicker.. xfs for example | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: thats how the alternate install looks | 14:52 |
| geremy | darnell: i use add-on that synchronize my bookmarks and pass in firefox on my desk and book also, maybe u can use it | 14:52 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: could disabling compiz help..i just realised its enabled by default on Jaunty live cd | 14:52 |
| magnetron | Slart: it only displays the version number, then quits without explanation or other output | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: very possibly yes | 14:53 |
| darnell | geremy: Do you know what the add-on was called? | 14:53 |
| Slart | magnetron: hmm.. no verbosity switch you can add? does it keep a log somewhere? | 14:53 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: its a good sign though. Your video is configured out of the box :) | 14:53 |
| magnetron | Slart: no verbosity switch, the log is empty | 14:53 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: My alternate OEM install looked more like a fullscreened Installer app than that | 14:53 |
| Slart | magnetron: it's not running in the background? | 14:53 |
| dAnon | glx fails to work after installing 180 again, didn't know how to uninstall 185 :( | 14:53 |
| geremy | darnell: it is addon xmarks | 14:54 |
| richardcavell | anyone here running Ubuntu on an Intel Mac? | 14:54 |
| Cube | Ziber: you there? | 14:54 |
| iMatter | :P i guess so that explains the fancy manuvers that happen while moving windows and using scroll thingy... ActionParsnip | 14:54 |
| Slart | dAnon: how did you install the 185 driver? | 14:54 |
| darnell | geremy: Thank you.. I'll give that a shot | 14:54 |
| magnetron | Slart: no. | 14:54 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: thats the alternate ISO install, its punchier than the X one as it doesnt have to mess around running an x server | 14:54 |
| Slart | magnetron: hmm.. then I'm not sure what to do.. odd that it doesn't give you any error message.. nothing in the syslog either? | 14:54 |
| dAnon | Slart uninstalled the 180 sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-glx-180 nvidia-common nvidia-96-modaliases nvidia-71-modaliases nvidia-180-modaliases nvidia-173-modaliases | 14:55 |
| JoeM | ok... I can't remember how to do this, I have scim set up and the right packages for chinese and korean installed, but when I click on the keyboard (or press the IM switcher keys) it doesnt give me the list of input methods... | 14:55 |

| mrpinky | Slart, if i go to another terminal, can i use some process manager to list and kill processes? | 14:59 |
| ubottu | mrpinky: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 14:59 |
| ubottu | mrpinky: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 14:59 |

| Slart | JoeM: the GTX 260 works ok with linux? I'm thinking of upgrading | 15:32 |
| JoeM | slart heh, I've gotten so used to how I do things... | 15:32 |
| Wolter | geremy, np :) | 15:32 |
| mezquitale | richardcavell, you can also go to "add/remove" and in search type "wav" or "mp3" and it should give you a list of files you can install, just choose one and voila, youll be able to play wav files with your favorite multimedia player | 15:32 |
| JoeM | slart works great, the 180 series drivers run it fine (I think 185 is the latest, but I'm on intrepid and 180 is all that is offered) | 15:32 |

| flasbang73 | jneves: i read it so where do i get the update to fix it? | 15:33 |
| JoeM | slart I have a 260 as my main card and a 8800 as my secondary... one issue (pretty sure it's due to using those two different cards) is I can't set up Compiz (get the RANDR error), but I doubt you use 4 monitors so not an issue for normal people | 15:33 |

| pokesomi | ok just checking | 15:52 |
| mezquitale | its_me1897, ahhh.... so different users use your machine and you want to restrict internet usage to one user? You want to filter what internet sites theyre able to see and you want to deny the user internet access? | 15:52 |
| usr13 | its_me1897: and that modem also acts as router for the LAN? | 15:53 |
| mezquitale | he wants to restrict internet use to one of his users on his local machine | 15:53 |
| Pici | antoranz: No... its part of bash/zsh/whatever, if csh doesn't provide its own facility for doing something like that then you may be out of luck, or perhaps you are using the wrong command. | 15:53 |
| its_me1897 | mezquitale: I don't want that user to access Internet at all, so their is no question of filtering. | 15:54 |

| mezquitale | its_me1897, there is a way of doing that but it's painful, it looks like you have to use iptables | 15:56 |
| antoranz | Pici: well... I'm also seeing on an AIX box and it does have a read binary so I thought that the source code could be out there | 15:56 |

| Pici | Wolter: ##windows is the correct place to ask, #ubuntu is not. If you continue here you will find yourself outside the channel. | 16:13 |
| geremy | wolter, i know how to that i do that few day before | 16:13 |
| usr13 | iMatter: Then I suppose you could change the name of the other /home/username dir to match the new user name and add a line to fstab to mount it correctly, but then you'd need to change ownership on it as well, chown -R new-user-name /home/new-user-name | 16:13 |

| econde | anyone having DNS issues out there? | 16:14 |
| mezquitale | Wolter, you have to go to bootdisk.com if you continue this you will get a lot of rofls and then you will be ignored | 16:14 |
| ikonia | econde: just tell us your proble | 16:14 |
| usr13 | iMatter: But it is a bit complicated. You would need to read a how-to on it. | 16:14 |
| ikonia | econde: you're problem sorry | 16:14 |
| mezquitale | stratocaster, configure what? nx? | 16:14 |
| Wolter | mezquitale, i am trying to take the offtopic out of here, i am not talking about bootdisks or rofls now | 16:14 |

| pokesomi | mezquitale: yes | 16:15 |
| usr13 | iMatter: You need to change the name of teh /home dir too.... | 16:16 |

| MustardTiger | hello all. can anyone help with partition issue on install | 16:16 |
| iMatter | usr13: will it just regenerate them? | 16:16 |
| usr13 | iMatter: You will also need to create an entry in the fstab file too. | 16:16 |
| Slart | MustardTiger: what is the problem? | 16:16 |
| iMatter | usr13: huh? why's that both of the homes are on the same partition | 16:16 |
| MustardTiger | hello, I'm trying to install (dualboot XP) but get error when partition is being resized. The Wubi installed complete, I then restart the computer and go through a couple steps but then get error "failed to create file system" "The ext3 file system in partition #1 of loopback (loop2) failed" | 16:16 |
| mezquitale | pokesomi, which drivers are you using, the ones labeled "new"??? | 16:17 |
| usr13 | iMatter: If it is on a separate parttiion, you need to designate it properly. | 16:17 |
| stratocaster | mezquitale: can you help me? | 16:17 |
| Slart | MustardTiger: no idea.. never used wubi, sorry | 16:17 |
| MustardTiger | When I try doing the installing from the live CD I get a similiar error | 16:17 |
| pokesomi | mezquitale: i do have the 9.04 ubuntu | 16:17 |
| Nameless_au | linux in windows... smells full of fail to begin with | 16:17 |
| iMatter | usr13: hmm... maybe i didn't ask right... i have my OLD home and my NEW home on the SAME partition its already known by ubuntu that they're on that partition | 16:17 |
| usr13 | iMatter: if they are both on the same partition and you have renamed it, then the other one no longer exists. | 16:17 |
| Pici | Nameless_au: I don't see how that is helpful. | 16:17 |
| mezquitale | stratocaster, if you want to install nx the first step is to install openssh on your machine and configure an ssh client | 16:18 |
| Nameless_au | Pici sorry just commenting on the wubi install issue | 16:18 |
| usr13 | iMatter: ls /home | 16:18 |
| stratocaster | mezquitale: and can you help me to configure x11vnc? | 16:18 |
| MustardTiger | doesn't seem to be a issue with Wubi, it's a partition issue. | 16:18 |
| iMatter | usr13: what i was mostly worried about the newer stuff... my home has configuration files etc from Hardy and this is Jaunty | 16:19 |
| mezquitale | stratocaster, ive never used vnc | 16:19 |
| stratocaster | mezquitale: ok...thanks | 16:19 |
| SnowRaptor | in this case, what's the name of the keyboard setting program, so I can tun it from a therminal? | 16:19 |
| usr13 | iMatter: ls -l /home # to see what ownership is | 16:19 |
| MustardTiger | it wasn't helpful | 16:19 |
| stratocaster | anyone can help me to configure x11vnc server? | 16:19 |
| mezquitale | pokesomi, what video drivers are you using? are you using the "new" drivers or older drivers? | 16:19 |
| Slart | stratocaster: there isn't a lot to configure.. | 16:20 |
| pokesomi | the default that get installed | 16:20 |
| MustardTiger | I guess I'll post in the forums later. | 16:20 |
| Slart | stratocaster: x11vnc uses the currently running session.. you might want to set a password.. that's about it | 16:20 |
| Nameless_au | MustardTiger sorr y i cant help never used wubi | 16:20 |
| rameshwor | what actually is done when i do Alt+F2 and then compiz --replace | 16:20 |
| MustardTiger | Live CD though? | 16:20 |
| Nameless_au | only under VM in vista | 16:20 |
| pokesomi | mezquitale: the defaults that come with 9.04 | 16:21 |
| stratocaster | Slart: i must give access to my pc at another pc...i must give it the gate, usurname and password, or not? | 16:21 |
| Nameless_au | rameshwor - you replace your DE with compiz | 16:21 |
| robertj | hey all, I want to install a ttf font and fonts:/// is apparently not the cool way to do things anymore, how do you go about i? | 16:21 |
| mezquitale | pokesomi, first uninstall all your drivers, purge the software and clean your system: | 16:21 |
| mezquitale | sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia*; | 16:21 |
| pokesomi | mezquitale this is a clean install. only added xchat | 16:21 |
| Slart | stratocaster: on the server you set a password.. on the client you need the ip of the server and that password.. no usernames needed | 16:21 |
| mezquitale | sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; | 16:22 |
| mezquitale | sudo apt-get clean; gksudo jockey-gtk | 16:22 |
| Slart | stratocaster: you might also need the port number.. but there is a default setting (5900 I think) | 16:22 |
| mezquitale | pokesomi, before you do that find out which drivers you have installed | 16:23 |
| pokesomi | there are none. just what comes with the base install. thats it | 16:23 |
| attickid | h | 16:23 |
| stratocaster | Slart: i must install the x11vnc, set a password and open on router the gate 5900. For give access at my pc i must login in ubuntu? I don't have understood how it access on my pc | 16:24 |
| mak1 | hey not able to install the freeglut3-dev for opengl.... i need help.... i am running a jaunty jackalope | 16:24 |
| pokesomi | mezquitale: what ever comes with ubuntu is what i am using. i havent installed any drivers | 16:24 |
| SnowRaptor | Why can't I get the keyboard right when acessing the livecd via vnc? | 16:24 |
| mezquitale | pokesomi then you dont have a problem with your nvidia drivers LoL what youre trying to do is to install the drivers, go to "system-->Administration-->Hardware drivers" | 16:24 |
| pokesomi | ok. | 16:24 |
| Slart | stratocaster: ah, if you have a router you'll have to forward that port, yes. The server has to have a user logged on, I think | 16:25 |
| mak1 | help | 16:25 |
| CapaH | I had Ubuntu Jaunty installed on a 300 GB partition, I just finished installing Windows Vista on a 200 GB partition on that same drive - unfortunately when I reboot the computer, I am not given a choice between Vista and Ubuntu --- Vista just takes ovver. how can I fix that? | 16:25 |
| pokesomi | mezquitale: i have a geforce 6100 which one do i use? | 16:25 |
| iMatter | usr13: hmm....after doing that stuff on my Desktop from the old home disappeared... i had stuff there.. | 16:25 |
| Slart | stratocaster: but I have to run, so ask the channel about using x11vnc again, someone else will help you | 16:25 |
| bazhang | mak1, ask a question to the channel | 16:25 |
| Ciss | Can i resize my Ubuntu partion? I try to do this operation with Windows Acronis, but no result.

| SnowRaptor | stratocaster: you must styart the server on your machine via the vncserver command | 16:25 |
| iMatter | Ciss: | 16:26 |

| stratocaster | Slart: thanks | 16:26 |
| mezquitale | in my experience the "new" ones did not work on my machine but you can pick whichever you like and pray that it works, I would choose the one below "new, I think it's 177 | 16:26 |
| iMatter | !livecd | ciss | 16:26 |
| ubottu | ciss: The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option. | 16:26 |
| iMatter | Ciss: see above use that and you can resize it | 16:26 |
| Ciss | i dont have any cd/dvd ROM!) | 16:26 |

| bazhang | mak1, paste.ubuntu.com with the error message (DONT paste here) | 16:27 |
| mobi-sheep | !usb | ohir | 16:28 |
| ubottu | ohir: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 16:28 |
| SnowRaptor | stratocaster: thhe steps are: install x11vnc or tightvnc-server or whatever; then you msut set your router (if any) to forward the port correctly; then you msut set a password using the command "vncpasswd"; then start the server via "vncserver". | 16:28 |
| SnowRaptor | stratocaster: "vncserver" will return a display number, probably ":1" | 16:28 |
| mezquitale | Ciss, as ohir mentioned your next option is to create a live usb ubuntu and boot to the usb stick to use gparted | 16:28 |
| SnowRaptor | stratocaster: your party must then connect to your.ip.add.ress:1, for examplo | 16:29 |
| SnowRaptor | *example | 16:29 |
| SnowRaptor | stratocaster: and supply the password you set via vncpasswd | 16:29 |

| usr13 | slack1: Here is what I used once: http://pastebin.ca/1489739 | 16:37 |
| mezquitale | pokesomi, you have to purge the nvidia software like i showed you before then try the hardware ddrivers again, if you dont have an option to install them then go to "add/remove" an install the drivers, make sure you dont have 180 installed then install the older drivers, this will only install the drivers, then go to "Hardware Drivers" and you should be able to use the drivers you just installed using "add/remove" | 16:37 |
| usr13 | slack1: You will have to change to suit your configuration / partitions etc. | 16:37 |
| pokesomi | mezquitale: the drivers i just tried have been removed | 16:38 |
| mezquitale | mak1, can i see your /etc/apt/source.list file?? | 16:38 |
| mak1 | ok ill paste it there | 16:39 |
| mezquitale | pokesomi, and you purged the drivers as well, right? now install the older drivers using "add/remove" | 16:39 |
| pokesomi | drivers are gone. removing software now | 16:39 |
| pokesomi | looks like i need to get some older drivers | 16:40 |

| BlackHawk | hello ... I installed ubuntu 9.04 (with the ALTERNATE install cd) on an external usb hd and want to boot it on a computer, that doesn't support booting from usb ... so I made a 'usb boot cd' following this tutorial: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-boot-cd-for-ubuntu-904/ ... when booting from this cd I hoped it would boot the usb hd, but instead every 5 seconds these messages appear: 'kjournald starting. commit interval 5 seconds.' and 'ext3fs: mounte | 16:49 |
| BlackHawk | d filesystem with ordered mode' ... I already asked google for those error messages and what they should mean and looked for help in the german irc channel, but without success ... hope anyone of you can help me! | 16:49 |
| FloodBot3 | BlackHawk: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 16:49 |

| Yesu | if he boots from cd? | 16:53 |

| bazhang | marco_, which file | 17:30 |
| marco_ | bazhang , AdobeAIRinstaller | 17:31 |
| grawity | noelferreira: In Ubuntu Jaunty, Firefox 3.5 is a separate package -- firefox-3.5, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | 17:31 |
| scunizi | marco_: is this file available in the repos? you should check first before running a program that you've downloaded | 17:31 |
| emery | noelferreira, or downloading it from the site. | 17:31 |
| emery | download* | 17:31 |
| f00dn00b | is internet explorer better than firefox, or is it the other way round? | 17:31 |
| fccf | defib: I believe the broken package to be g++-4.3? if you remove it it should clear up your apt | 17:31 |

Use firefox or any provided web navigator, or listen to what I previously told you (as to install Internet Explorer in ubuntu). That would be learning/looking for answer.

| defib | I think so, I'll check | 17:42 |
| marco_ | bastidrazor, I copied and pasted the filename. This is what I've done: AdobeAIRInstaller.bin | 17:42 |
| bastidrazor | marco_, strings may be right.. chmod +x filename.bin | 17:42 |
| marco_ | bastidrazor: sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller | 17:42 |
| defib | fccf: I have security and recommended updates checked | 17:43 |
| Cube_____ | lol | 17:43 |
| bastidrazor | marco_, notice you're missing .bin | 17:43 |
| vise | Is there any shortcut to switch tabs in gedit editor? | 17:43 |
| ltcabral_ | how can i run a command as an specific user? | 17:43 |
| grawity | vise: You could try Alt-1, Alt-2... | 17:43 |
| grawity | ltcabral_: sudo -u user command | 17:43 |
| marco_ | bastidrazor, i forgot to paste .bin . It was included | 17:43 |
| grawity | ltcabral_: or, if it's a graphical app, gksu is better. | 17:44 |
| vise | grawity, Hmm.. that works.. But not as good as CTRL-TAB in firefox.. | 17:44 |
| edbian | ltcabral_: su is the command to switch user. Be more specific. Are you writing a script?? | 17:44 |
| parapanghelescu | hi there anyone knows by chance the graphical interface for mkvextract ???? | 17:44 |
| ltcabral_ | grawity: its just a perl script... thanks | 17:44 |
| grawity | vise: Yeah, that's what I liked in Windows :/ | 17:44 |
| grawity | vise: I think there's Ctrl-Alt-PageUp/PageDown | 17:44 |
| fccf | defib: ok, not sure but you have alot of repositories in you update list .. ppa's ... rit.edu? and etc... these could (probably are) causing the wrong version of things to be installed, you may have alot of work to do to get things back to square1 | 17:44 |
| grawity | vise: And you can set your own shortcuts, apparently. | 17:45 |
| ltcabral_ | i want to run this command as an specific user: system("kdestroy"); because its being run as root | 17:45 |
| kpkeerthi | su <userid> -c '<command-in-quotes' | 17:45 |
| defib | fccf: Okay, I'll uncheck all my ppa | 17:45 |
| marco_ | bastidrazor, still the same error: command not found | 17:45 |
| defib | fccf: and resort to the default server | 17:45 |
| grawity | ltcabral_: from what programming language? | 17:45 |
| ltcabral_ | grawity: perl | 17:45 |
| edbian | ltcabral_: That is a kernel process. It is supposed to be run as root. Why do you want it to be run as somebody else? | 17:45 |
| grawity | edbian: kdestroy is NOT a kernel process | 17:46 |
| grawity | edbian: it simply destroys the Kerberos ticket cache of the current user. | 17:46 |
| bastidrazor | marco_, you're either not in the same directory or you have not done the chmod +x or you're typing it wrong. one of those 3. | 17:46 |
| ltcabral_ | edbian: because it runs a kerberos authentication for the user | 17:46 |
| vise | grawity, Where? in gedit or system-wide.. since i can't find a setting in gedit.. | 17:46 |
| edbian | grawity: OOO. I googled it. You're right. Sorry about that. | 17:46 |
| maniheer | ok | 17:46 |
| maniheer | I need some help | 17:46 |
| ltcabral_ | edbian: and it creates a cache file owned by root | 17:46 |
| fccf | defib: it may be a last resort for you, but it is the reccommended why to go about it, unless you are testing/developing using 3rd party stuff there really is no reason to have ppa's | 17:46 |
| grawity | vise: There's a system-wide option "Allow editing of menu shortcuts" in appearance. | 17:46 |
| MonsieurBon | hello | 17:46 |
| parapanghelescu | hi there anyone knows by chance the graphical interface for mkvextract ???? | 17:46 |

| MonsieurBon | has anyone installed a funambol server yet? It seams it doesn't start (no Error...) as I can't access it over localhost:8080/funambol | 17:47 |
| defib | fccf: I have them to keep some packages (like gnome-do and ubuntu tweak) updated and such | 17:47 |
| axos88 | hello! I am making a custom live USB disk with syslinux, but the boot-loading process (loading the kernel and initramfs) is extremely slow. Do you know what might be causing syslinux to be so slow? (about 30-40s until booting the kernel begins (and finishes in 1s)) | 17:47 |
| ltcabral_ | so it would be better: system("sudo -u myuser kdestroy") or system("su myuser -c 'kdestroy'")? | 17:47 |
| defib | fccf: I reverted | 17:48 |
| grawity | ltcabral_: probably sudo. | 17:48 |

| fccf | defib: what version is available? | 18:01 |
| davide_ | hi everyone | 18:01 |
| edbian | derenrich: pooched ?? | 18:01 |
| scunizi | blu3_b4ll5: the openprinting link mneptok gave you works but might be out of date.. generally speaking look at a printers website and see if they have linux support.. HP, Brother, Samsung and other. | 18:01 |
| lavida | edbian, yes | 18:01 |
| Carnical | that error occurs no matter what I try to apt-get install | 18:01 |
| lavida | edbian, well my main goal would be to make this card to work with any driver | 18:01 |
| edbian | lavida: That's a bit more tricky :) | 18:01 |
| defib | fccf: 2.0.36-rc1-dfsg-3ubunyu1 | 18:02 |
| blu3_b4ll5 | scunizi: thanks I'll check around | 18:02 |
| mneptok | scunizi: many printers claim to support Linux, but hardly do so. the OpenPrinting DB is well maintained. | 18:02 |
| slayton | Carnical, file a bug report on launchpad | 18:02 |
| lavida | edbian, i heard that it would work with driver that came with ubuntu | 18:02 |
| fccf | defib: install it | 18:02 |
| defib | fccf: okay | 18:02 |
| edbian | lavida: You have 2 wireless network cards? Which uses this rtl8180 driver? Does the rtl 8180 driver work? | 18:02 |
| scunizi | blu3_b4ll5: mneptok do your comparrison between what the website says and the openprinting DB.. | 18:02 |
| kpkeerthi | Carnical, Try this: 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' | 18:02 |
| lavida | edbian, its beautiful card, its shame that i cant work on linux... now when im isntall all things i need to use it conformly | 18:02 |
| kpkeerthi | and 'sudo apt-get install -f' after that | 18:03 |
| vvvv | sombody knows a hardware problems irc channel? | 18:03 |
| defib | fccf: failure, i'll take a screenshot | 18:03 |
| scunizi | mneptok: good to compare. last time I looked at the DB it was dissappointing. | 18:03 |
| lavida | edbian, alfa should use rtl 8187 driver | 18:03 |
| Carnical | no output, and didn't fix the problem | 18:03 |
| Matic | Hi guys, can someone please tell me which is the stable version of ubuntu to use, I currently use Hardy(8.04) and I believe so far there is 8.10, 9.10. I normally use ubuntu for webdevelopment and java development. Thanks | 18:03 |
| vise | back | 18:03 |
| edbian | lavida: alfa?? | 18:03 |
| specto | Matic: 9.04 | 18:03 |
| lavida | edbian, alfa wireless card full name is alfa awus 036H | 18:03 |
| edbian | lavida: Please list all of your cards, which ones work, what drivers you are using / have tried/ | 18:04 |
| edbian | tried.* | 18:04 |
| lavida | edbian, it uses rtl8187l chipset | 18:04 |
| kalakouentin | u | 18:04 |
| losher | vvvv: try ##hardware | 18:04 |
| edbian | lavida: Alright and the other one? | 18:04 |
| B3rz3rk3r | matic: latest stable is 9.04 | 18:04 |
| edbian | lavida: Is the only problem with the rtl8180 driver on the alfa card that it freezes when you try to use 2 cards at once? | 18:04 |
| f00dn00b | ok, i have to go for now, but i'll be back in about an hour | 18:05 |
| f00dn00b | bye | 18:05 |
| lavida | edbian, nah i can use it when i shot down atheros card... with sudo ifconfing wlan0 down | 18:05 |
| fccf | Matic: 8.04 is Long Term Support - if you want stable .. Hardy is the way to go | 18:05 |
| jo | has anyone else had problems with openoffice causing a total kernel panic/reboot? | 18:05 |

| Flimm | i'm trying to get the headphone and microphone jacks to work on my laptop | 18:05 |
| vise | grawity, Sorry if im being noobish, but i did not find any "edit shortcut" in the gedit menu. I clicked on Document, and there is "Next document" with a ctrl+alt+pgup shortcut. But it doesnt seem editable... | 18:05 |
| lavida | edbian, pardon i cant use | 18:05 |
| Flimm | I've tried to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting , no luck | 18:05 |
| jhford | what is the official standing on http://hannahmontana.sourceforge.net/Site/Home.html | 18:05 |
| jhford | :P | 18:05 |
| Flimm | sound works, but the jacks don't | 18:05 |
| Flimm | I've even tried upgrading to a newer version of ALSA, any ideas? | 18:06 |
| grawity | vise: It might be that gedit simpy doesn't accept the shortcut you try to set. | 18:06 |
| edbian | lavida: Let me get this straight. If you shut down the atheros card then the alfa card doesn't work either? | 18:06 |
| lavida | edbian, yes! | 18:06 |
| lavida | edbian, sorry for confusing :D | 18:06 |
| vise | grawity, But i didn't try to set any.. They don't still seem editable.. | 18:06 |
| Carnical | kpkeerthi: fresh install, I let it update, then it reported a broken package related to perl, I remembered something telling me to clear my archives of *.bin, but command didn't work, so I assumed *.* would be ok | 18:06 |
| defib | fccf: http://imagebin.ca/view/SzwnLTD.html | 18:06 |
| edbian | lavida: If you don't "shut down" the atheros card then they are both up and running? | 18:06 |
| Carnical | kpkeerthi: I'm wondering if just a new install would be a faster resolution | 18:07 |
| grawity | vise: They don't seem editable until you try to set one. | 18:07 |
| lavida | edbian, when i turn off atheros card, network manager say that alfa is also disabled | 18:07 |
| vise | grawity, How do you set one? | 18:07 |
| lavida | edbian, yeah thats true! | 18:07 |
| kpkeerthi | Carnical: Did you install any package that was not in .deb format? | 18:07 |
| iMatter | brb | 18:07 |
| Carnical | no | 18:07 |
| vise | grawity, Ok.. nvm.. il google.. | 18:07 |
| grawity | vise: Simply press the new shortcut while the menu item is selected | 18:07 |
| edbian | lavida: I don't understand. Why not just leave them both running? Why do you need to shut down the atheros card at all? | 18:07 |
| Carnical | kpkeerthi: well I assume not, at least, if anything, all I did was apt-get (are they all .deb?) | 18:08 |
| fccf | defib: in synaptic remove libstdc++6-4.3-dev | 18:08 |
| kpkeerthi | Carnical, before you reinstall, try reinstalling the offending package 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall libssl0.9.8' | 18:08 |
| lavida | edbian, in frist place i did that but then when it connect 1sec after that OS freez | 18:08 |
| gnata | hi, is someeone running an up to date karmic i386? on my box it is fully broken (wrong perms on /dev) | 18:08 |

| Carnical | kpkeerthi: same error related to libssl... even in the reinstall | 18:09 |
| fccf | gnata: ask your question in #ubuntu+1 ... we don't support bleeding edge here | 18:09 |
| edbian | lavida: So if you connect either card then the system freezes after one second? And if you shut down the atheros card then the alfa card goes down with it? What if you shut down the alfa card? What is the alias? wlan1 ?? | 18:09 |
| gnata | fccf: oups...sorry... | 18:10 |
| lavida | edbian, im not sure i give u strait answers because my english is as u can see not good for these things | 18:10 |
| kpkeerthi | Carnical, Sorry. I guess I'm out of options. | 18:10 |

| lavida | fertech, this card has linux driver... it has realtek chipset | 18:30 |
| vise | Anyone used csound? | 18:30 |
| defib | fccf: it's not there | 18:30 |
| lavida | fertech, im using also wireless right now, but one with atheros chipset | 18:30 |
| Hylian | hey guys i was wondering if you could point me towards a really easy cross platform way of transferring files via the internet..?? i want to transfer files from my father's machine to mine and vice versa... | 18:30 |
| fertech | lavida what realtek chipset u have | 18:30 |
| marco_ | Pici, :) Thanks a lot | 18:31 |
| lavida | fertech, rtl8187l | 18:31 |
| fertech | lavida theres a few | 18:31 |
| bastidrazor | Hylian, scp for ubuntu to ubuntu | 18:31 |
| fertech | oh i dont know about that one | 18:31 |
| lavida | fertech, nevermind mate | 18:31 |
| Hylian | yeah, but my father uses windows and i use ubuntu, actually he uses 2 machines, and one is windows... | 18:31 |
| === marko_ is now known as marko-_- | ||
| fertech | sorry | 18:32 |
| bastidrazor | Hylian, or winscp for while on windows to ubuntu.. you could install a ssh-server on windows and use scp from both sides | 18:32 |
| fertech | lavida look it up | 18:32 |
| fccf | defib: er, ug, um, something is still calling g++-4.3 as a reqmt .. I am a little stumped at this point and my services are needed elsewhere, so I will refer you back to the room at this point | 18:32 |
| Hylian | if the machines where physically here i would just network them, but | 18:32 |
| lavida | fertech, hopefully i will find solution | 18:32 |
| defib | fccf: okay, thanks for trying! | 18:32 |
| VCoolio | Hylian: there is woof (commandline only, we're working on a gui version) | 18:32 |
| fertech | lavida did u try to connect to it | 18:33 |
| jedilink | nin93: what problems have you had with WIFI on Ubuntu? | 18:33 |
| lavida | fccf, i see u u are helping ppl | 18:33 |
| Hylian | i could just set up a ftp server, but that's soo funky, he isnt very computer literate. | 18:33 |
| lavida | fccf, can u try to solve my mate | 18:33 |
| fertech | lavida there some bars on ur desktop | 18:33 |
| fccf | lavida: yes, but wireless cards are not my forte | 18:33 |
| lavida | ferdostar, yes i tried but OS freez when it connet to AP | 18:33 |
| fertech | lavida click on it and then connect to ur wireless router | 18:34 |
| Hylian | the idea is for me to give him a call and for it to be drag and drop and push button, my father is smart, but not with pc's | 18:34 |

| nin93 | jedilink i got bored and decided to do a bit of playen around with diffirent OS"s when it comes to using wifi. i use a yagi and had bt3 on a lappy, ubuntu on another lappy and xp on a tower. i have 1 cable coming into the house and i noticed bt3 comes in last with xp first on getting the best signal, is it the kernel in nix that causes such a crap wifi connection ? any brains here have any clue ? | 18:34 |
| fertech | lavida if that dont work then look it up | 18:34 |
| bastidrazor | Hylian, winscp for him and get ssh-server on the windows box so you can scp files | 18:34 |

| bastidrazor | Hylian, winscp is point and click | 18:34 |
| Hylian | ohh good, that's what he needs, thanx guys | 18:34 |
| jedilink | nin93 ... there are several things to consider | 18:35 |
| fccf | lavida: the ath5k driver? | 18:35 |
| jedilink | my own laptop uses the b43 WiFi | 18:35 |
| fertech | how do i setup mailman | 18:35 |
| jedilink | and there are two versions of b43 ... one totally open source, and other | 18:35 |
| lavida | fccf, edbian catch whole picture but hes went to eat | 18:35 |
| lavida | fccf, that is driver for my first card with atheros chipset | 18:35 |
| jedilink | I must use the non-free version of the b43 Wifi driver, and it works perfectly | 18:35 |
| diddy | What the heck is this? cat /etc/inittab -> cat: /etc/inittab: No such file or directory ??? | 18:35 |
| lavida | fccf, the 2nd one is rtl8187l for realtek chipset | 18:36 |
| fccf | lavida: google is your friend ... learn about blacklisting | 18:36 |
| diddy | Where is the inittab on Ubuntu? | 18:36 |
| lavida | fccf, yeah but i cant locate them on my sistem | 18:36 |
| lavida | fccf, system | 18:36 |
| haroelcabo | the screen of my notebook does a strange pause or blink or flicker when using the full screen firefox feature. Is annoying. Is there a way of optimizing things so that it smoothes away ? | 18:37 |
| lavida | fccf, edbian said it is a little bit tricky | 18:37 |
| vise | yawn | 18:37 |
| Pokesomi | I need the proper instructions for using the nvidia drivers with an emachines c6537 and the nvidia geForce 6100 | 18:37 |
| fccf | lavida: look at this.... | 18:37 |
| fccf | !blacklist | lavida | 18:37 |
| ubottu | lavida: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » | 18:37 |

Also it used to be called Gaim which I assume stood for GTK AOL Instnat Messenger, AOL didn't like the name and sued over it, which stopped development for a while untill the name change. | 18:48 |

| ac1d | # mount -t ext3 /dev/sda5 /media/sda5rnmount: /dev/sda5 already mounted or /media/sda5 busy | 20:32 |

| Ryan2 | Hi there, how do I view an "Open with.." custom command I just created? | 20:34 |

| ac1d | and btw, specto, ubotu's advice was longer than my flood.. | 20:34 |
| Lint01 | if a window may be present on several desktops, are they real? | 20:34 |
| schmiedc | so you should be able to write in a root direktory then | 20:34 |
| Pokesomi | ok then what | 20:34 |
| guntbert | !gksu | Exaviorn Pokesomi | 20:35 |
| ubottu | Exaviorn Pokesomi: 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) | 20:35 |

| losher | ac1d: and | 20:35 |
| Exaviorn | Pokesomi:ok you can use alt f2 and type gksudo nautilus instead | 20:35 |
| losher | ac1d: and the 'mount' command just by itself? | 20:35 |
| supersasho | vigo: i've got this problem maybe 1 of 3 times i start PC, but it is anoying to reboot again and again just to have tvcard and webcam sound working | 20:36 |

| ^heart||attack^ | hello | 21:01 |
| btnz | alright, so if i put a sim card into my huawei 169 and want to make a call, however you want to call that (i'd go for phone call/modem), how do you do that with ubuntu 9.04? | 21:01 |
| K99Brain | fccf, fax IS data. for the rest, modem = modulator demodulator. not analog voice | 21:01 |
| porter1 | <Gh057hun73r>, overclocking inter gfx cards I don't believe anyone has tried | 21:02 |
| porter1 | intel* | 21:02 |
| Gh057hun73r | I at least want to know what speed it is running at.. how do I get that info? | 21:02 |
| fccf | K99Brain: ever heard of a voice modem ... most newer cards are ... regardless | 21:02 |
| porter1 | Gh057hun73r, there is a program called gma950boot for windows, might see how it works and if you can get the same result in linux | 21:04 |
| Gh057hun73r | will it run under wine? | 21:04 |

Can I maby reverse to an older package some how. I need my beloved xfig! | 21:09 |

| ubottu | humito: 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. | 21:09 |
| edbian | lavida: I think the real issue is the alfa driver as well. You should try removing that package entirely. Unfortunately I don't know how to purge a package that was installed by hand. | 21:10 |

| lavida | edbian, also i have 64 bit version of ubuntu, maybe thats the problem too | 21:12 |

| lavida | edbian, too many variables | 21:12 |
| bp0 | Pici: thanks | 21:12 |
| edbian | lavida: Possibly. Maybe it's a 32 bit driver (That really shouldn't matter though). | 21:12 |

| grkblood13 | sometimes when i tr to view videos online i have this weird player that never loads, heres a screenshot http://joeshowradio.com/images/player.png how do i get rid of this | 21:12 |
| qwyeth | In general, packages compiled from source are copied to directories in /usr somewhere | 21:12 |
| edbian | Usually the extra 32 bits a just 0's and 64 bit software can handle 32 bit software well. | 21:12 |
| amcsi | my xterm scrolls through the typed commands instead of xterm (mouse scroll). how do I fix this? | 21:13 |
| lavida | gangil, we are talking about removing drivers are u sure it can be done with apt-get remove | 21:13 |
| qwyeth | Look over the makefile | 21:13 |
| gangil | lavida: nope , was guessing :D | 21:13 |
| fccf | grkblood13: good to see you alive and streaming... good question. | 21:13 |
| edbian | gangil: It was a package installed by hand :) | 21:13 |
| dwarder_1 | nevermind i found out | 21:13 |
| grkblood13 | and streaming? | 21:13 |
| qwyeth | edbian: if you read the makefile thoroughly you can see what directories it touched | 21:14 |
| grkblood13 | o | 21:14 |
| grkblood13 | lol | 21:14 |
| lavida | qwyeth, if i find them what i should do, just to remove them by simply deleting them | 21:14 |

| Pici | gangil: make clean does not uninstall. It only removes the compiled objects from the source directory, not the install directories. | 21:15 |
| btnz | k then k99brain, any suggestions towards my problem then? | 21:15 |
| qwyeth | If so, you will have to be very careful | 21:15 |

| fccf | btnz: this might be overkill but I think asterisk will do what you want | 21:17 |
| K99Brain | btnz, ok, it's a umts modem. i don't think it's possible to use it for voice. maybe sms | 21:17 |
| btnz | as i can just select it as téléphone mobile à large band internet is easy.. | 21:17 |
| lavida | qwyeth, the question is how to read what is in Makefile | 21:17 |
| lavida | qwyeth, cant do that with text editor | 21:17 |
| btnz | well it is capable of doing that | 21:17 |
| dwarder_1 | yes i can .. | 21:17 |
| fccf | K99Brain: that's technically not a modem, it is a cellphone, and no you cannot make voice calls with it | 21:18 |
| btnz | i tried it under windows vista with the application that comes with it | 21:18 |
| edbian | I got booted | 21:18 |
| dwarder_1 | hmm | 21:18 |
| dwarder_1 | or can't | 21:18 |

| guntbert | btnz: not quite :-), but I got a ZTE MS628 and found a lot of forum entries for the huawei during my search for the ZTE, so maybe the forums are a better alternative then | 21:33 |
| judgen | mimick: how di you mess it up | 21:33 |
| |unjustice| | even different OS's, the computer will not boot from a disc | 21:33 |
| moymoy | mimick: how? don't you have Xorg.conf backups? | 21:33 |
| k4rt33k | mimick: what happened? | 21:33 |
| btnz | 1.5k ppl here and no1's ever tried to access a connected 'phone'/modem's capabilities to make a call? | 21:33 |
| mimick | I installed the wrong driver | 21:33 |
| mimick | I think that if I get a shell w network I can fix it | 21:34 |
| mimick | but I can't get that | 21:34 |
| lavida | edbian, its interesting that i cant find such vital information on the net easy | 21:34 |
| k4rt33k | btnz: I use a broadband | 21:34 |
| mimick | recovery won't give me network over wifi | 21:34 |
| judgen | btnz: ofcourse people have used it... it depends on hte phone and comp of the phone. | 21:34 |
| lavida | edbian, :( | 21:34 |
| edbian | lavida: I'm sure there is a way. I'll google as well. | 21:34 |
| mimick | how can I boot w/o X? | 21:34 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: what phone/modem are you talking about? | 21:34 |
| judgen | mimick: just change the xorg.conf to use the driver that you need... | 21:35 |
| btnz | talking about a huawei e169 | 21:35 |
| edbian | lavida: | 21:35 |
| mimick | judgen, that's an option for sure | 21:35 |
| |unjustice| | is there a way to update via package manager? I cannot get computer to run anything but a shell, but I had failsafe GNOME for a little while | 21:35 |
| lcabrini | mimick: surely you don't need x to boot? | 21:35 |
| edbian | lavida: Go to the file that you ran the initial make command in a terminal | 21:35 |

| christiaaan | hi, i need help, how can change the port of my remote desktop ? i need change the defaut 5900 for another where can change? | 21:35 |
| judgen | btnz: does not ALL huawei stuff has linx drivers in their memory? Atleast i thought so. | 21:36 |
| mimick | lcabrini, I don't need X, I just need my shell and network | 21:36 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: hmm, I have two e156s and they were both plug and play. Do you get any output in /var/log/messages when you plug yours in? What's the output of lsusb? | 21:36 |

| Serg_ | Hi! I have a problem - does not start the camserv , although the skype launch as follows: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so skype. What is the problem? It does not starts. | 21:36 |
| mimick | judgen, yes | 21:36 |
| judgen | mimick: excuse my spelling | 21:36 |
| christiaaan | hi, i need help, how can change the port of my remote desktop ? i need change the defaut 5900 for another where can change? | 21:36 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: you might need to do a "modeswitch" which I needed to get one working on an old redhat server. | 21:36 |
| wrektjet | fair enough. so does anyone use adobe air? | 21:36 |
| btnz | the thing is - it does work as a internet modem plug-and-play wise, amazingly fine (really to my surprise) | 21:36 |
| maniheer | linux has failed on me again but I wont swear and give up this time | 21:36 |
| mimick | I have my Ubuntu alternate disk | 21:36 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: oh, what do you want to do with it then? | 21:37 |
| edbian | maniheer: What's your problem? | 21:37 |
| moymoy | mimick: it's easy to log into GNOME to get networking than trying to set up networking in the terminal.. so change the driver in your Xorg.conf to "vesa" instead of whatever driver you're using now | 21:37 |
| edbian | lavida: Hello?? | 21:37 |
| btnz | Lunar_Lamp: i'd want to use it to make an actual phone call | 21:37 |
| mimick | moymoy, I will try to use the vesa driver | 21:37 |
| lavida | edbian, yes yes | 21:37 |
| btnz | or send a text, if you like | 21:37 |
| mimick | moymoy, that's a good idea | 21:37 |
| dabukalam | hi all i'm trying to install my wireless drivers using ndiswrapper. I'm using the bcm4318. I keep getting an error when I modprobe,"WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, it will be ignored in a future release." and "WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release." Why do I get these errors? | 21:37 |
| lavida | edbian, i think i found something interesting | 21:37 |
| mimick | thanks | 21:37 |
| judgen | mimick: just boot and select partition as normal, press alt+F2 and use "nano /target/etc/X11/xorg.conf" and just select the proper driver. | 21:37 |
| Serg_ | есть тут кто русский? | 21:37 |

| cristofer | hi | 21:38 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: ARGH, I deleted my notes earlier today. However, first things first you need to install minicom if you don't already have it. Do you know how to use minicom? | 21:39 |
| T3kn0m0nk3Y | hello all | 21:39 |
| cristofer | speak sànisj | 21:39 |
| qwyeth | |unjustice|: it sounds like the packages are now corrupted due to your failed attempt at upgrade... It's probably possible but it would be a lot easier for you to resolve the hardware problem and install jaunty clean | 21:39 |
| cristofer | spanish | 21:39 |
| maniheer | I installed xubuntu using wubi, and used it for a couple of hours, but after a reboot, I can not even start xubuntu, GRUB says that it cannot find a file | 21:39 |
| K99Brain | btnz, just some clarifications. the voice capability of the e169 is optional and not available anywhere. i have a e169 and i've never seen that option because here (in italy) is not available. | 21:39 |
| badeagle | Serg_: we can't help if we can't understand you | 21:39 |
| qwyeth | You said you tried 4 CDs. Were they 4 different distros? Or 4 burns of the same image? | 21:39 |
| T3kn0m0nk3Y | I have a question about winbind/ads/pam if anyone is up for it | 21:39 |
| btnz | Lunar_Lamp: to be quite frankly, never heard of minicom. what is it about? | 21:39 |
| dabukalam | hi all i'm trying to install my wireless drivers using ndiswrapper. I'm using the bcm4318. I keep getting an error when I modprobe,"WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, it will be ignored in a future release." and "WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release." Why do I get these errors? | 21:40 |
| |unjustice| | qwyeth: I agree, but the cdrom is not broken, it just will not boot cds | 21:40 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: ok, it's a terminal program that lets you connect to serial ports. When the USB device is plugged in it pretends to be a serial device, basically. | 21:40 |
| dethray | why not use a usb stick/ | 21:40 |
| guntbert | dabukalam: there seems to exist a development decision about the naming of config files - I'd say at the moment no problem for you, maybe you file a bug against the package using that conf-file (without .conf) | 21:40 |
| K99Brain | btnz, i have searched on the huwaei web site and there is the downloadable software to do voice calls, but it's only for win/mac | 21:40 |
| btnz | K99Brain: what system have you tested it on? | 21:40 |
| |unjustice| | qwyeth: I tried ubuntu 32 and 64 twice, and debian 32 and 64 twice | 21:40 |
| edbian | lavida: According to that site ubuntu comes with drivers that work with your card. Are you aware of this? | 21:40 |
| K99Brain | btnz, i use it with win and ubuntu | 21:40 |
| |unjustice| | qwyeth: computer can read discs, but not boot them | 21:40 |
| K99Brain | btnz, mainly in ubutnu | 21:40 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: so what you need to do is "sudo aptitude install minicom" firstly, and then run "sudo minicom -s". | 21:40 |
| qwyeth | |unjustice|: just because you can read CDs doesn't mean the CD drive isn't broken. | 21:41 |
| dabukalam | guntbert: so it doesn't affect me? the drivers don't work though... how can i solve that? | 21:41 |
| lavida | edbian, yes but know its is too late | 21:41 |
| qwyeth | |unjustice|: in fact, I just replaced 6 cd drives last week with that issue at my office | 21:41 |
| guntbert | !es | cristofer: | 21:41 |
| ubottu | cristofer:: 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. | 21:41 |
| btnz | K99Brain: also with the green-GUI software (win) | 21:41 |
| lavida | edbian, i will run command make to see where it writing files | 21:41 |
| edbian | lavida: Ok are you in the file that you ran the make command in initially (in a terminal) | 21:41 |
| qwyeth | they would read cds fine but not boot, and replacing the drive fixed it | 21:41 |
| btnz | Lunar_Lamp: what is the '-s' part for? | 21:41 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: serial port setup > A > /dev/ttyUSB0 | 21:41 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: it puts it into setup mode. | 21:42 |
| edbian | lavida: Wait don't do that yet (good strategy but I have an idea) | 21:42 |
| |unjustice| | qwyeth: yuck, well I think that may be the problem, is there a way to test it? | 21:42 |
| maniheer | I installed xubuntu using wubi, and used it for a couple of hours, but after a reboot, I can not even start xubuntu, GRUB says that it cannot find a file | 21:42 |
| lavida | edbian, put it on the table mate :D | 21:42 |
| T3kn0m0nk3Y | I added my 8.04 server to a windows AD successfully, but when i log in to my domain admin account it tells me "the administrator has locked your account" and logs me back off | 21:42 |
| qwyeth | Yeah: install another drive | 21:42 |
| Lunar_Lamp | (btnz once yo've set it up once, you can omit the -s) | 21:42 |
| guntbert | dabukalam: I don't know about ndiswrapper, but the lines you saw are definitely only warnings, no errors | 21:42 |
| btnz | kk ic | 21:42 |
| cristofer | hello wath is ubuntu | 21:42 |
| Vinceman | how can you set in the save document dialog window to not show hidden directories? | 21:42 |
| qwyeth | And you're SURE you know what you're doing to set it to boot in the BIOS, right? Not to be condescending, I just want to make sure. | 21:42 |
| edbian | lavida: try "make uninstall" I read that the make file probably includes this command. Many of them do. | 21:42 |
| cristofer | 10.0 | 21:42 |
| moymoy | maniheer: if you installed using WUBI, you shouldn't use GRUB, since your ubuntu install is just a file on your windows partition, the wubi install should add the entry to your WINDOWS bootloader | 21:43 |
| guntbert | !ubuntu | cristofer | 21:43 |
| ubottu | cristofer: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com | 21:43 |
| Lunar_Lamp | You might want to do an ls -l /dev/ttyUSB[tab] just to check that it's come up as USB0 - sometimes when you plug it in and out a lot it will come up as /dev/ttyUSB1 or even higher numbered sometimes. | 21:43 |
| maniheer | moymoy, it uses windows bootloader first, and then tries to load as normal, and then comes to GRUB4DOS | 21:43 |
| edbian | maniheer: With all do respect. Wubi is a shoddy linux install. | 21:43 |
| K99Brain | btnz, my only suggestion is to try to use win software via wine, but i think will be hard that it will work. | 21:43 |
| lavida | edbian, rgr that | 21:43 |
| |unjustice| | qwyeth: the first boot device is set to cdrom | 21:43 |
| edbian | lavida: rgr ?? | 21:44 |
| maniheer | edbian, my cd/dvd drive doesnt work anymore | 21:44 |
| |unjustice| | qwyeth: but for you, I will double check | 21:44 |
| T3kn0m0nk3Y | anyone have any ideas? | 21:44 |
| maniheer | i have no other choice | 21:44 |
| moymoy | maniheer: it says "file not found" ?? | 21:44 |
| maniheer | yes | 21:44 |
| guntbert | Vinceman: you tell nautilus not to show them (under view...) | 21:44 |
| btnz | Lunar_Lamp: it would also be listed as a higher number if i had plugged in another usb device before, wouldnt it? | 21:44 |
| qwyeth | :D | 21:44 |
| edbian | maniheer: Try unetbootin !! It lets you boot from an ISO without a CD (or a CD drive :) ) | 21:44 |
| qwyeth | sometimes I think I saved that setting in the bios and didn't | 21:44 |
| moymoy | maniheer: that probably means your menu.lst points to a wrong drive or partition .. i'm not all that sure how wubi works though | 21:44 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: most USB devices won't show there as a tty device, but it's possible. | 21:44 |
| Milligan | I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on a new machine that has an Nvidia ION card in it. However, ubuntu didn't list the nvidia driver as a possible propri driver. Any ideas why ? | 21:44 |
| maniheer | it worked before though | 21:45 |
| lavida | edbian, roger that :D | 21:45 |
| maniheer | lets try unetbootin | 21:45 |
| lavida | edbian, using in simulations | 21:45 |
| maniheer | and make a new distro ALL OVER again | 21:45 |
| maniheer | ... | 21:45 |
| btnz | K99Brain: haven't really gotten down with wine so far as I'm pretty new to linux but i'll defenitely also give that one a try once i find the time to, thx | 21:45 |
| maniheer | ive lost my work :( | 21:45 |
| edbian | lavida: ic :) | 21:45 |
| Cube | lol | 21:46 |
| edbian | maniheer: Sorry bud :( | 21:46 |
| lavida | edbian, well done mate, that was great idea, i think it went good | 21:46 |
| moymoy | Milligan: you can go here to check which drivers are suited for your nvidia ION card nvidia.com/object/unix.html | 21:46 |
| edbian | lavida: yay! | 21:46 |
| edbian | lavida: no errors? | 21:46 |
| maniheer | unless I install linux without touching the wubi partition, and then try mounting it? | 21:46 |
| lavida | edbian, on those site i gave u, u could find kernel driver directory path... there i found few drivers rtl with todays date | 21:46 |
| edbian | maniheer: I think it is possible to download windows software to view the file that wubi uses as a harddrive and read / write it. To get you lost work :). | 21:46 |
| Cube | gosh this irssi theme is driving me crazy | 21:46 |
| K99Brain | !wine | btnz, try to take a look here | 21:46 |
| ubottu | btnz, try to take a look here: 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 | 21:46 |
| lavida | edbian, no errors | 21:47 |
| moymoy | maniheer: you can try backing up your virtual ubuntu.. afterall, it's just a file on your windows partition | 21:47 |
| Milligan | moymoy, that means I have to install from nvidia drivers, and not ubuntu supported ones ? | 21:47 |
| moymoy | maniheer: reinstall using wubi, then replace it again | 21:47 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: if you're new to Linux you're about to get scared probably. We're about to delve into AT commands. These aren't really Linux, but it's how digital phones etc communicate. And quite frankly, they're INSANE and immensely cryptic. I was going to ditch you with an AT commands sheet and hope you could work it through yourself to be honest. | 21:47 |
| edbian | lavida: try modprobe -l | grep rtl and see what shows up. | 21:47 |
| lavida | edbian, now i will take a look there too see are they deleted | 21:47 |
| qwyeth | |unjustice|: Anyway, if the BIOS is set right then problem could either be the motherboard or the drive. The next thing I would do is replace the drive. If you don't have another drive available, you could try making a bootable Ubuntu install USB key, which would work exactly the same as a CD. Not all BIOSes support boot from USB though. | 21:47 |
| badeagle | bad K99Brain, bad | 21:47 |

| Cube | zart | 21:47 |
| K99Brain | badeagle, what's bad? | 21:47 |
| moymoy | Milligan: there's no difference, the drivers offered by jockey-gtk or through the repos are the same drivers on the nvidia page, no modifications whatsoever.. the NVIDIA drivers are closed source, so they can't be modified | 21:47 |
| Cube | go to linux-pl | 21:48 |

| FrEaKmAn_ | any tutorials how to update php to 5.2.9? | 21:49 |
| maniheer | ill do it again tommorow | 21:49 |
| edbian | lavida: use lsmod to view all of the loaded (currently being used) modules. "lsmod | grep rtl" to see all the ones that have "rtl" in the name. | 21:49 |
| btnz | Lunar_Lamp: well then please go ahead, i came to learn and actually i find the whole mobile phone part pretty exciting (although i wouldnt find it too bad if i could get things working in the end) | 21:49 |
| edbian | Run it and tell me what comes up (vaguely) but don't copy / paste. | 21:50 |
| deany | I used to know the whole AT command set, ah the old days of 2400baud high speed action | 21:50 |
| jollyroger | currently, it doesn't let me choose from all that stuff which is in my gnome-menu under applications......instead i have to go and look for it under /usr/bin | 21:50 |
| Lunar_Lamp | btnz: well, save the config and then exit. If you're back on a shell run "minicom" without the -s option. | 21:50 |

| deany | spaaaarta, try getting out more | 21:51 |
| lavida | hmmmm | 21:51 |
| lavida | this wasnt work | 21:51 |
| edbian | lavida: use lsmod | 21:51 |
| lavida | sorry ppl | 21:51 |
| maniheer | can somebody help me with unetbootin | 21:52 |
| edbian | lavida: modprobe -l lists all of them available on the system. lsmod shows what is actually being used. | 21:52 |
| edbian | lavida: lsmod | grep rtl | 21:52 |
| cudev | Hey, can anyone help me to get my preseed finished? | 21:52 |
| cudev | I'm stuck on one step | 21:52 |
| vassler | Is there any way to turn off tooltips in ubuntu??? | 21:52 |
| j | how the ... do you understand who you are talking to? | 21:52 |
| btnz | afk 4 1 sec | 21:52 |
| Lunar_Lamp | j: prefixing the nick of the person you are talking to makes things easier. | 21:52 |
| moymoy | j: the messages directed to you with your nick in it are highlighted | 21:53 |
| lavida | edbian, didnt get anything after lsmod | grep rtl command | 21:53 |
| edbian | lavida: Then that module is not being used :)( | 21:53 |
| j | thankyou! | 21:53 |
| qwyeth | j: lots of people who have used irc for a long time get used to it. Unfortunately, if they don't use your name, you just have to learn to deal with it. | 21:53 |
| edbian | lavida: Which is good! We did it! | 21:53 |
| maniheer | and since j is a common letter, alot of lines must be getting highlighted | 21:53 |
| edbian | lavida: ha ah ha :) | 21:53 |
| qwyeth | maniheer: lol, I didn't think of that | 21:53 |
| vassler | Is there any way to turn off tooltips in ubuntu??? | 21:53 |
| j | ok | 21:54 |
| moymoy | qwyeth: but everyone's names are displayed in a different color anyway, so spotting that person shouldn't be that hard.. | 21:54 |
| Lunar_Lamp | moymoy: it depends upon which client you are using. | 21:54 |
| badeagle | i'm starting to feel really whacked out.... | 21:54 |
| qwyeth | moymoy: what client are you using that is configured that way? | 21:54 |
| badeagle | can ranch dressing go bad? | 21:54 |
| maniheer | does anyone know how to use unetbootin | 21:54 |
| maniheer | im desperate :'( | 21:55 |
| Belding | haha | 21:55 |
| TuxedoBond | I want programs to be on a seperate partition. | 21:55 |
| TuxedoBond | How would that be done? | 21:55 |
| edbian | lavida: Does your alfa card show up in the nm-applet anymore?? | 21:55 |
| moymoy | qwyeth: weechat | 21:55 |
| ubuntu__ | fucking autoconnecting piece of shit | 21:55 |
| lavida | edbian, i was checking what we done | 21:55 |
| Speckal | how do you get the keyring to "forget" remote share credentials so you can log in as a different user? | 21:55 |
| lavida | edbian, i think u made a good job mate | 21:55 |
| edbian | lavida: I think we did a good job ;) | 21:56 |
| lavida | edbian, now i will connect a bastard | 21:56 |
| maniheer | edbian, u suggested unetbootin, HELP ME, PWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZ | 21:56 |
| lavida | edbian, u was the head :D | 21:56 |
| edbian | maniheer: ? | 21:56 |
| edbian | maniheer: Be more specific :) | 21:56 |
| K99Brain | TuxedoBond, you can do separate partitions for /home and / | 21:56 |
| moymoy | Lunar_Lamp: just realized that.. and looked at screenshots of other clients | 21:56 |
| edbian | lavida: Which wifi cards show up in the nm-applet? | 21:56 |
| maniheer | edbian, how do i install Xubuntu using unetbootin, I need a step by step tutorial, and why it says that it makes live USB disks..... | 21:57 |
| j | i can see there is a lot of wild emotions going on gotta go earn a living bye you all | 21:57 |
| lavida | edbian, there is just atheros card... alfa is dead :D | 21:57 |
| cedric_ | hello | 21:57 |
| lavida | edbian, the question is are there kernels original drivers | 21:57 |
| kkj | hello, i did a 'apt-get install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5' and all installed great however, running php from console is not found and browsing to a php file ends up in it being downloaded, if i try redo a 'apt-get install php5' it tells me its already installed. any ideas? | 21:57 |
| edbian | lavida: Good. Now we need to find a driver for your alfa card that doesn't crash the system :) | 21:57 |
| edbian | lavida: ask around while I help maniheer | 21:58 |
| edbian | maniheer: Do you have unetbootin downloaded / installed for windows? Are you on the target computer right now? | 21:58 |
| sdfg | i have two hard drives on master one slave is there a way to boot into vista on primary and install ubuntu on slave? | 21:58 |
| maniheer | edbian, yes and yes | 21:59 |
| spaaaarta | sdfg: it depends on you motherboard | 21:59 |
| lavida | edbian, thanks mate! | 21:59 |
| edbian | lavida: NP! Good luck ! | 21:59 |
| WhiteStarEOF | Anyone familiar with the TightVNC key mapping issue? | 21:59 |
| btnz | concerning the highlighting of messages containing one's nic - does pidgin do that by default or is it just me (dont see that)? | 21:59 |
| edbian | maniheer: Do you have a xubuntu iso ?? | 21:59 |
| maniheer | nope | 21:59 |
| maniheer | lol | 21:59 |
| TuxedoBond | K99Brain, but arn't most of the program files installed to USR? | 21:59 |
| edbian | maniheer: We' | 22:00 |
| lavida | edbian, ill go to reboot system and to make few good moves here :D | 22:00 |
| edbian | maniheer: We'll need that. do you know where to get it? | 22:00 |
| maniheer | yep | 22:00 |
| edbian | lavida: :) | 22:00 |
| bnmrrs | Is there anyway to search all users crontabs? | 22:00 |
| sdfg | maniheer: cant install using cd for some reason any advice? | 22:00 |
| K99Brain | TuxedoBond, yes, most of them. | 22:00 |
| mau | Hello. Can I boot ubuntu from a ramdisk like when I do "knoppix toram"? | 22:00 |
| edbian | maniheer: Obviously that takes a bit. Let me know when it finishes. | 22:00 |
| xim_ | i have an external hard drive that is failing, its usb, and when i plug it in my computer wont even POST and when i plug it in after it works for a few minutes and then gives input output errors, or the worse problem now, it freezes my desktop, are there diagnostic tools i can run on it? | 22:01 |
| maniheer | 35 minutes remaining | 22:01 |
| maniheer | hmmm | 22:01 |
| K99Brain | TuxedoBond, however, usually it's a good thing to separate the user files from system files, non only the programs | 22:01 |
| Khelben | i've install dpkg-www which puts a dpkg file in the /usr/lib/cgi-bin/dpkg but when i browse from another host, I don't have access whereas another tool (dwww) gives me no problem, is this an apache config problem? | 22:01 |
| edbian | maniheer: :(. Patience | 22:01 |
| wapko | kkj: try apt-get install php5-cli | 22:01 |
| maniheer | hehe | 22:01 |
| |unjustice| | qwyeth: so I got the disc to boot, and I checked it for errors however, once I begin the install the screen freezes with a bunch of nonsense | 22:02 |
| sdfg | maniheer: can you help me install ubuntu onto my slave drive? | 22:02 |
| WhiteStarEOF | xim_: If you're hardware-savvy you might consider taking the actual hard drive out of the enclosure (generally they're just standard IDE hard drives) and plugging it in inside your computer and see if you have the same problem. | 22:02 |
| TuxedoBond | K99Brain, in that case if I want to have the program files on a separate partition I'll need to move /usr. | 22:02 |
| xim_ | WhiteStarEOF: yeah ill probably end up doing that i was just hoping to try running some diagnostics first | 22:03 |
| TuxedoBond | How would I do that? | 22:03 |
| Zopiac | problem! my new webcam was just working perfectly fine, but now Cheese says that it cant find it... | 22:03 |
| WhiteStarEOF | xim_: Oh, sorry. The only diagnostics program I use on hard drives these days is Spinrite. I don't know if that can see USB drives or not. Sorry. :( | 22:03 |
| |unjustice| | everytime I try to boot from the jaunty install disc it freezes | 22:03 |
| sdfg | |unjustice|: try safe graphics mode | 22:04 |
| |unjustice| | sdfg: that is not an option on the disc | 22:04 |
| |unjustice| | sdfg: I cannot boot failsafe GNOME w/o disc eitehr | 22:04 |
| sdfg | |unjustice|: do you get to the first load screen? | 22:05 |
| K99Brain | TuxedoBond, uhm, first you need an empty partition with enough space. than i suggest you to use a live cd to move all the content of your /usr to that partition and to modify the fstab file to indicate to the system where is /usr | 22:05 |
| orgelv_ | . | 22:05 |
| |unjustice| | sdfg: you mean the login gui? | 22:06 |
| intok | dame, well looks like the canon pixma ip6000d drivers are no good for the ip6600d | 22:06 |
| bnmrrs | Where does ubuntu store it's cron files? | 22:06 |
| intok | test page printed well, but an actual print rsulted in messed up colors | 22:06 |
| sdfg | |unjustice|: yes | 22:06 |
| |unjustice| | sdfg: I can only boot into a shell, otherwise it freezes | 22:06 |
| K99Brain | TuxedoBond, but maybe it's better if you ask also to someone else because i'm not sure if i'm forgetting something | 22:06 |
| intok | blotchy and the wrong colors in some places | 22:06 |
| maniheer | 30 minutes remaining | 22:06 |
| xim_ | right now my desktop is frozen, is it compiz? the window manager? i can still type in my irc window because its in focus, but i cant drag the window or click the taskbars or desktop | 22:06 |
| |unjustice| | sdfg: but the disc will boot into a gui, it just freezes during install, I did an error check, disc is fine | 22:06 |
| |unjustice| | sdfg: now I am trying to boot ubuntu without installing | 22:07 |
| sdfg | |unjustice|: do you have another pc to try the disk in? | 22:07 |
| |unjustice| | sdfg: yeah | 22:07 |
| === SpacePigeon is now known as Wolter | ||
| |unjustice| | sdfg: it loads in the other one | 22:07 |
| orgelv_ | anyone have success installing jaunty on a dell inspiron 1300? | 22:07 |
| Wolter | hi | 22:07 |
| Igg-man | hello | 22:07 |
| Wolter | how do i copy a cd's boot sector? | 22:07 |
| edbian | maniheer: Well when you're finished (I probably won't be here) open unetbootin and point it to your ISO file. Ask around here for help. | 22:07 |
| Igg-man | good question | 22:07 |
| OttifantSir | xim: Try also askin in #compiz | 22:08 |
| sdfg | |unjustice|: some players are picky about the type of media you are using | 22:08 |
| Bookman | moymoy: nfs is too complicated compared to samba, thanks for the tip though, appreciated | 22:08 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: try checking for a boot looking file, like boot.img or something | 22:08 |
| |unjustice| | sdfg: that crashed too, um do you have any ideas how I can get the disc to install without crashing? | 22:08 |
| maniheer | ok edbian | 22:08 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: it might be 1.44MB or 2.88MB | 22:08 |
| edbian | maniheer: What you're trying to do is "dual-boot" windows XP and xubuntu. It's easy to do :) | 22:08 |
| maniheer | tanks | 22:08 |
| |unjustice| | sdfg: oddly enough there seems to be no option for non-gui install | 22:08 |
| maniheer | I can do all that | 22:08 |
| Wolter | Igg-man, are you talking about a floppy? | 22:08 |
| maniheer | its simple with a CD | 22:08 |
| maniheer | but ive never used unetbootin before | 22:09 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: Some CDs use floppy images for booting | 22:09 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: are you trying to make your own bootable CD? | 22:09 |
| Wolter | Igg-man, i see | 22:09 |
| edbian | maniheer: Once you reboot using unetbootin and the ISO is running there is no difference :) | 22:09 |
| sdfg | |unjustice|: sry cant help | 22:09 |
| bullzeye95 | hi, I can't get my wireless adapter to work on my x64 ubuntu.. is it possible to run just the driver (or ndiswrapper, or whatever I need to make it work) in an x86 environment? | 22:09 |
| maniheer | edbian, fair enough | 22:09 |
| Wolter | Igg-man, no, i am rather trying to copy windows xp's bootsector into my usb | 22:09 |
| Gravitron_ | anyone know how to installl the theme aqua dreams? | 22:09 |
| maniheer | thanks again | 22:09 |
| Wolter | but i didn't want to make it offtopic | 22:09 |
| edbian | maniheer: Have you ever installed a dual boot before? | 22:09 |
| Wolter | people start whining | 22:09 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: Oh, cool. Sorta like a bartpe CD, only on a USB drive? | 22:10 |
| Wolter | Igg-man, if i do an exact copy of the cd, will it contain the boot sector? | 22:10 |
| Wolter | Igg-man, i guess | 22:10 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: I think so | 22:10 |
| shmegma123 | hey | 22:10 |
| Gravitron_ | anyone know how to installl the theme aqua dreams? | 22:10 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: Are you trying to do an installation on a computer that doesn't have a CD drive on it (like a netbook, for example)? | 22:10 |
| Wolter | like acer aspire 1? yes | 22:10 |
| Carnical | hey guys, I've got an odd problem... everytime I try to install via apt-get, I encounter http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/213941/ and http://wiki.eeeuser.com/howto:unable_to_tparse and similar fail to solve the problem | 22:11 |
| |unjustice| | can anyone assist me in an ubuntu install from disc, it keeps freezing, but disc has no errors | 22:11 |
| edbian | maniheer: Do you know how to use gparted to partition your drive during the install? Have you ever installed a dual boot system before? | 22:11 |
| prem1um`Support | h | 22:11 |
| shmegma123 | Hello, should ubuntu automatically detect my wireless nic. WPN 311 rangmax | 22:11 |
| prem1um`Support | Um. i could use some help. | 22:11 |
| shmegma123 | I cant find the drivers | 22:11 |
| prem1um`Support | With xchat. | 22:11 |
| Wolter | Igg-man, so, should Bootable_NoEmulation.img do it? | 22:11 |
| edbian | prem1um`Support: Be more specific | 22:12 |
| lich0r | shmegma123, all you need is the windows driver :) | 22:12 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: I'm not sure, that sounds right though | 22:12 |
| prem1um`Support | Im in ubuntu i want to connect to the server "irc.gamesurge.net" | 22:12 |
| deany | Wolter. You just need to use usb-creator or unetbootin | 22:12 |
| igorrr | jsgj | 22:12 |
| prem1um`Support | its not in the server list. | 22:12 |
| shmegma123 | lich0r, seriously? how do you do that? | 22:12 |
| igorrr | hi everyone | 22:12 |
| lstarnes | prem1um`Support: /newserver irc.gamesurge.net | 22:13 |
| edbian | then just type "/join irc.gamesurge.net" in the text box and hit enter :) :) | 22:13 |
| prem1um`Support | thank you | 22:13 |
| lstarnes | prem1um`Support: you could also add it manually to XChat > Network List | 22:13 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: Keep in mind that USB to IDE adapters tend to be around $20, you could hook a CD drive up to your netbook just to start the install | 22:13 |
| amee2k | hi everyone | 22:13 |
| edbian | prem1um`Support: NP! | 22:13 |
| Wolter | Igg-man, yeah, i'm just trying to make a bootable usb | 22:13 |
| amee2k | anyone else experienced problems with epiphany not cleaning up its mess in the tray area after downloads? | 22:13 |
| shmegma123 | ? | 22:13 |
| deany | !usb | Wolter | 22:13 |
| ubottu | Wolter: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 22:13 |
| amee2k | it leaves "dead tray icons" behind. i.e. an empty space the size of the tray icon that won't disappear until i close all browser windows | 22:13 |
| Igg-man | Wolter: But you want to boot to windows? | 22:14 |
| Wolter | Igg-man, going to eat, now, please tell me everything through pm now, i don't want to scroll back meters and meters of text :) | 22:14 |
| shmegma123 | ! wireless nic | 22:14 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about wireless nic | 22:14 |
| shmegma123 | ! wireless | 22:14 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 22:14 |
| edbian | shmegma123: You need ndiswrapper to use the windows driver. Do you have the windows driver on hand? | 22:14 |
| Igg-man | deany: I think he's trying to install Windows | 22:14 |
| deany | Igg-man, then he`s in the wrong place | 22:14 |
| edbian | shmegma123: I am not sure BTW that your card works under ndiswrapper. I do however know how to set up ndiswrapper :) | 22:14 |
| Bookman | In nautilus, clicking on Sharing Options does not bring up a NFS option, just Samba | 22:14 |
| kalcifur | anyone deal alittle bit in voip/skype stuff have a quick sec to answer a few questions? | 22:14 |
| Kalmi | !ask | kalcifur | 22:15 |
| ubottu | kalcifur: 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. :-) | 22:15 |
| amee2k | the problem is that every time i download something, those dead icons accumulate and fill up my task bar | 22:15 |
| Igg-man | deany: I think so. My guess is he got a Ubuntu netbook, now wants to put linux on it | 22:15 |
| shmegma123 | well its not just a windows driver. It comes with the netgear software. It wouldnt let me manually install only the driver. I had to find an exe file | 22:15 |
| kalcifur | k | 22:15 |
| Ward_Y | Does anyone have boxee running on ubuntu 9.04 | 22:15 |
| deany | Igg-man, ubuntu is linux | 22:15 |
| shmegma123 | and disable netgear from starting | 22:15 |
| Igg-man | deany: Yes, I'm just saying | 22:15 |
| skintythe1andonl | Hi does anyone know how to disable the ethernet port on a laptop. According to powertop it is using a lot of my power i think it is causing the extra heat from my laptop since upgrading to jaunty | 22:15 |
| Koltor | Is there setting somewhere to have xchat start minimuzed to the system tray? | 22:15 |
| deany | Igg-man, if he wants windows on it, he should goto #windows | 22:15 |
| jerknextdoor | what's the best way to find out why 8.10 just started crashing on me ever few minutes? | 22:16 |
| Kalmi | Koltor, there is a command line switch... | 22:16 |
| Igg-man | ha! | 22:16 |
| Igg-man | Is there a #windows ? Would anyone actually support someone there? | 22:16 |
| edbian | shmegma123: If you open the CD in ubuntu and poke around the files you should be able to find it. Drivers end in .sys and .inf Google your card name + linux + driver to find out what name you're looking for. | 22:16 |
| deany | Igg-man, thats their problem. | 22:16 |
| Koltor | Kalmi, something I can add after xchat in the command to run the program? | 22:16 |
| lstarnes | Igg-man: it's actually ##windows, but it does exist | 22:16 |
| Igg-man | deany: Windows is too hard to install, Ubuntu is so much easier | 22:16 |
| edbian | shmegma123: To use ndiswrapper you'll need but the .inf and the .sys files when we do put them into ndiswrapper down the line. | 22:17 |
| deany | lstarnes, oops | 22:17 |
| Igg-man | lstarnes: ##windows, on irc.freenode.net? | 22:17 |
| * Igg-man laughs | 22:17 | |
| lstarnes | Igg-man: yes | 22:17 |
| deany | forgot the double hash | 22:17 |
| shmegma123 | There is no .inf or .sys, but maybe i can swipe it from the installed driver already on my windows partition? | 22:17 |
| Igg-man | he should try ##windows on irc.freeload.net | 22:17 |
| kalcifur | i have a remote box, runs 8.04 i have a skype phone(usb) rather than run xp in a vmware to use the phone (cause the monitor app is windows only) i attempted to run both the monitor app and skype 2.5 under wine. I got all that working the helper program says both are running. my next step which brought me here is I need to try and make the ubuntu recognize the usb device outright.- | 22:17 |
| deany | you always have to do things twice for windows :) | 22:18 |
| Bookman | Is there no way to specify NFS as the share method for a directory in Nautilus? | 22:18 |
| edbian | shmegma123: I don't know where it is in the windows filesystem but yeah it's probably in there somewhere | 22:18 |
| kalcifur | the vmware does pass along the device just fine, so im not entirely sure if its not being correctly recognized but in the hardware section it was missing information about the device. | 22:18 |
| kalcifur | or i could just be up against a hard place as the helper program might be coded only for windows placement of the hardware, anyone have any ideas? | 22:18 |
| magnetron | kalcifur: what "missing information"? you can use it as an extra soundcard, right? | 22:19 |
| deany | Bookman, its a bit sad when you can select ssh, ftp, webdav and even samba and not the "linux prefered" nfs in nautilus | 22:19 |
| victorpundek | Hi, I need some help here... My computer sound just wento off... Iḿ hearing some kind of weird static instead... do you know what it may be? thanks | 22:19 |
| Bookman | deany: exactly my point | 22:19 |
| rdz | how to set the gateway on ubuntu, when connected with vpnc? | 22:19 |
| deany | Bookman, just man nfs and man export | 22:20 |
| edbian | Bookman: deany NFS is set up with config files and then just works seamlessly (like a hardcore native linux app usually does). | 22:20 |
| deany | Bookman, and set it up in fstab | 22:20 |
| rdz | i would like all the the traffic go through the vpn tunnel instead of through the default gw | 22:20 |
| Ward_Y | victorpundec: does your computer have a microphone? | 22:20 |
| kalcifur | magnetron: im not sure about using it as an extra sound card, the helper program actually does some control to the skype program, so im not sure if its just simply a extra usb audio device | 22:20 |
| Bookman | deany: you have to go through command line hoops to make it work! | 22:20 |
| magnetron | kalcifur: could you try? | 22:20 |
| oldude67 | is this a bad thing lol....mount: can't find /dev/cdrom in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 22:20 |
| tom-xfce | i had som error upon installation about "syslog" crashing but the OS seems to be running fine something i should be worrying about? | 22:20 |
| deany | edbian, he was just commenting on the lack of nautilus option in "connect to server" | 22:20 |
| Carnical | anyone proficient at troubleshooting synaptic? | 22:20 |
| victorpundek | I do not have mic | 22:21 |
| deany | edbian, which I agree with.. why not, its got samba there. | 22:21 |
| edbian | deany: I know. I think there should be one as well. I was just making sure you guys knew how to use it :) | 22:21 |
| kalcifur | yes, would that simply be setting the different outputs in the skype settings correct? | 22:21 |

| edbian | deany: Bookman there is JFTP in the repos. I just did a search and found it. "Graphical network and file transfer client" | 22:22 |

| vladimirboyd | after installing lxpanel and lxnm my wifi card stopped working, can anyone help me? | 22:24 |
| Kalmi_ | Bookman, deany: FTP/SFTP/Samba is quite nicely integrated into nautilus | 22:24 |
| TuxedoBond | Do you think it would be a good idea to make a another partition for the Windows Swap file only to minimize fragmentation? | 22:24 |
| kaddi | how can i find out which version of x-server i'm running? | 22:24 |
| edbian | kaddi: man xorg | 22:24 |

| Kalmi_ | Bookman, samba is quite nice actually... it's the easiest imho... and the samba server can do really cool things... and it's cross-platform | 22:25 |
| K99Brain | Carnical, try this command in a terminal: sudo apt-get update | 22:26 |
| Bullaro | Hi guys | 22:26 |
| Bookman | Kalmi_: I have to agree that a Windows protocol is the best in this case. Sadly | 22:26 |
| deany | nfs is easy, its just the options I always forget. | 22:26 |
| K99Brain | Carnical, and then: sudo dpkg --configure -a | 22:26 |
| kaddi | edbian: hehe, I thought you wanted to point me to the "-version" parameter that is documented in man :p | 22:26 |

| iceroot | what is the best method (rar, zip, tar.gz and so on) to compress 14GB of files (iso, jpeg, png and mdf)? | 22:27 |
| iceroot | for getting the minimum file-size | 22:27 |
| edbian | Cookie: Depends. What's the problem? | 22:27 |
| Cookie | Well | 22:27 |
| tanquiol | ASterisk? | 22:27 |
| Cookie | My ubuntu boots | 22:27 |
| tanquiol | ASterisk? | 22:27 |
| mudpark | iso, jped, png and mdf are already compressed files, so copmpressing them further wont do much of anything | 22:28 |
| Cookie | and i just can login via terminal | 22:28 |
| Igg-man | iceroot: I think bzip2 is a bit better than gzip, however I'm not sure about the other formats | 22:28 |
| edbian | iceroot: I think that .tar.gz is the highest compression. | 22:28 |
| Kalmi_ | Bookman, deany: and not really cross-platform... There is an implementation by MS, but it's not well-known... | 22:28 |
| Cookie | i guess i destroyed my gnome? :X | 22:28 |

| Bookman | bucky: Ok, I just want to understand that Samba is the best way to link computers over a local network. The best integrated. | 22:30 |
| edbian | Cookie: no matter :) Type: sudo aptitude install gdm to install the graphical display manager (graphical login) That should depend on xorg (the X server) and gnome I believe | 22:30 |

| ubottu | Bullaro: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 22:42 |

| maniheer | somebody tell me where the repos are written | 22:43 |
| maniheer | the location of the text file | 22:43 |
| Slart | /etc/grub/sources.list or something like that | 22:43 |
| maniheer | not grub lol | 22:43 |
| Igg-man | maniheer: /etc/apt/sources.list | 22:43 |
| Igg-man | that one? | 22:43 |
| maniheer | ye that one | 22:44 |
| bucky | Bullaro: did you format the existing partition, did you asign the mount point / .. how big it the partition? | 22:44 |
| Cookie | I should open it? | 22:44 |
| Slart | oops.. sorry.. /etc/apt/sources.list | 22:44 |
| amanda__ | Does anyone know where i can look to get GDM working | 22:44 |
| maniheer | Cookie, type sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 22:44 |
| xiong | anybody have a preference for folder encryption? | 22:44 |
| Kalmi_ | Bullaro, I would suggest md5 checking the cd and if it's ok... Try the alternate cd... That might help... | 22:44 |
| Kalmi_ | !alternate | Bullaro | 22:44 |
| ubottu | Bullaro: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 22:44 |
| Kangarooo | @now | 22:44 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: Does your X work, before you try to get GDM working? | 22:44 |
| Bullaro | Bucky: The error occurs while formatting the partition, the partition is 500gb | 22:44 |
| Kangarooo | @now timezone | 22:44 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: how can i tell | 22:44 |
| Cookie | What u need from it? | 22:44 |
| bucky | Bullaro: not big enough | 22:44 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: does 'startx' start x? | 22:44 |
| maniheer | we are going to add the CD as a repo | 22:44 |
| Cookie | kk | 22:45 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: cant read lock file /tmp/.X0-lock | 22:45 |
| Cookie | i should add at the last line something i guess, or? | 22:45 |
| akSeya | usr13, this is my current xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/d69241536 | 22:45 |
| Kalmi_ | bucky, Bullaro: not big enough... are you joking? | 22:45 |
| Bullaro | Bucky: Yeah it should be big enough to atleast install ubuntu :P | 22:45 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: so, you see text only, right? No mouse? | 22:45 |
| Carnical | K99Brain well I replaced in vi, but it's readonly, and even though I sudo, a :wq! doesn't overwrite the read-only | 22:45 |
| bucky | Kalmi_: not for gnome and crap | 22:46 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: right | 22:46 |
| Kalmi_ | bucky, gb | 22:46 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: as root i cannot remove that lock file | 22:46 |

| maniheer | gmmm | 22:46 |
| maniheer | hmm* | 22:47 |
| Cookie | hm | 22:47 |
| akSeya | usr13, ok | 22:47 |
| Bullaro | Kalmi_: Yeah it gives like an error window while formatting | 22:47 |
| K99Brain | Carnical, your sources.list is read-only? uhm, you have closed the graphical repository program? | 22:47 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: you might try checking your /etc/X11/xorg.conf just to make sure X starts before you try to get GDM working | 22:47 |
| maniheer | Cookie, have u tried just reinstallking? | 22:47 |
| usr13 | akSeya: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf ; sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 22:47 |
| Kalmi_ | Bullaro, what does it say? | 22:47 |
| maniheer | reinstalling* | 22:47 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: there are binary drivers for nvidia cards, installing one of them might help | 22:47 |
| Bullaro | Kalmi_: I said : If I try to install Ubuntu(8.04 or 9.04) I get a problem when its on 9% with formatting... For some reason it gives an error with the disc and/or the drive | 22:47 |
| Cookie | Ubuntu or a single programm? | 22:47 |
| Bullaro | let me check | 22:47 |
| maniheer | ubuntu | 22:47 |
| Cookie | so delete it and reinstall? | 22:47 |
| maniheer | yes | 22:47 |
| maniheer | nothing important on there I hope | 22:48 |
| akSeya | usr13, when my xorg.conf was blank, I still had only 800x600 | 22:48 |
| Cookie | ergh.... =D | 22:48 |
| Carnical | K99Brain, yeah, it's not open, unless the process is still running (but I can't even start system monitor....), I think I'll restart and report back | 22:48 |
| Cookie | then i would prefer the way with USB Stick^^ | 22:48 |
| Carnical | K99Brain unless there is an easy way to kill it | 22:48 |
| Kalmi_ | Bullaro, What is the exact error? or is it a general error? | 22:48 |
| maniheer | suppose u could try | 22:48 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: something like "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nv", but someone will correct me if I'm wrong | 22:48 |
| bucky | K99Brain: can't you add it in System -> Administration -> Software Sources ? | 22:48 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: if i remove the conf will X rewrite it | 22:48 |
| maniheer | but there is something wrong | 22:48 |
| Igg-man | (I think) | 22:48 |
| dewdude | Hi. I'm interested in trying the ATI Propritary driver for my Radeon Xpress 200. In the various instructions I've read it says to enable it under Restricted Drivers, but I don't see an option. Does this mean I have to use the Binary install from ATI or is there something I can do to get the option to install the restricted binary driver through synaptic/other methods? | 22:48 |
| philipp | hey guys... i cant se my indicator-applet allthough it is installed | 22:48 |
| maniheer | if gdm is installed, that error should not come up | 22:48 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: I don't think it will, but you could rename it instead | 22:48 |
| philipp | can anyone help me out? | 22:48 |
| K99Brain | bucky, he told he can't | 22:48 |
| Cookie | well i could tell u what i did | 22:48 |
| akSeya | usr13, well.. gonna try again.. be back soon | 22:49 |
| Carnical | bucky, yeah, for some reason I can't open anything atm... | 22:49 |
| maniheer | ok then Cookie | 22:49 |
| Cookie | I guess then i will call me a idiot, but okkay :D | 22:49 |
| Cookie | *u | 22:49 |
| maniheer | not really | 22:49 |
| bucky | K99Brain: then he's fucked | 22:49 |
| Bullaro | Kalmi_: I need to start the installation all over again :P... need to get another monitor and | 22:49 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: Did you do a full ubuntu install? | 22:49 |
| Cookie | ;) | 22:49 |
| Cookie | Well | 22:49 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: it usually comes by default with some sort of X startup manager running already | 22:49 |
| K99Brain | Carnical, ok, try to restart, it's simplier than searching the process that own it | 22:49 |
| Cookie | i tried to install the gnome-network-monitor | 22:49 |
| spiral | hello | 22:49 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: Igg-man no this just all of a sudden happened | 22:49 |
| Carnical | K99Brain alright, brb | 22:49 |
| Cookie | but it always said i would miss HAL | 22:49 |
| |unjustice| | is there a way to test the efficacy of a cd/dvd via terminal? | 22:49 |
| Cookie | And i was like "hum?" | 22:49 |
| xiong | does anyone ever encrypt anything? | 22:49 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: after some updates? | 22:49 |
| Cookie | so i did"sudo apt-get install --reinstall hal" | 22:49 |
| |unjustice| | I keep getting cd/dvd related errors when I boot from disk | 22:49 |
| Kalmi_ | dewdude, amd dropped support for that card | 22:49 |
| Cookie | and it run. | 22:50 |
| dabukalam | hi all, i'm having problems using my wireless card (BCM4310). The drivers are installed, and my lshw shows this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/213958/. Does this mean it's a driver problem or a connection problem or either? the second network is the USB one i'm using to connect to the internet. | 22:50 |
| Bullaro | Kalmi_: Could we go private? wouldnt be able to find your chat if I have to run upstairs and restart the install | 22:50 |
| maniheer | okay | 22:50 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: no i had to hard shutdown the laptop | 22:50 |
| Cookie | After the ~middle i couldnt do anything | 22:50 |
| spiral | is there anyone here that could explain me how on earth Ubuntu 9.04 usplash is killing a J2EE server on startup ? | 22:50 |
| Kalmi_ | Bullaro, ok | 22:50 |
| Cookie | so i rebooted | 22:50 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: was sending it to sleep mode | 22:50 |
| Cookie | and then this shit came^^ | 22:50 |
| maniheer | ouch | 22:50 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: it failed | 22:50 |
| Cookie | So the problem is HAL i guess? | 22:50 |
| maniheer | no | 22:50 |
| dewdude | I'm aware it was put in to legacy status. But they still give a binary driver download for legacy devices. | 22:50 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: so, you've done a reboot since then, just to verify it didn't resume a suspended state? | 22:50 |
| usr13 | akSeya: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-trident/+bug/185440 | 22:50 |
| maniheer | ur configuration bit probably failed | 22:51 |
| maniheer | since u rebooted | 22:51 |
| Cookie | i can fix it ? :X | 22:51 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: yes sir, and I just found an old xorg i had backed up before the nvidia driver | 22:51 |
| maniheer | but I have no idea how to fix it | 22:51 |
| amanda__ | Igg-man: im gonna try it | 22:51 |
| Cookie | hm^^ | 22:51 |
| maniheer | try | 22:51 |
| spiral | I added a glassfish server... & update-rc.d'd it, it's starting correctly but just dies a few seconds later without wirting anything in glassfish log, as if it caught a SIGKILL... | 22:51 |
| bucky | xiong: you mean like with gpa ? | 22:51 |
| maniheer | sudo apt-get remove gedit | 22:51 |
| maniheer | and see what happens | 22:51 |
| spiral | I aptitude purged usplash, & now it doesn't get killed anymore... | 22:51 |
| Igg-man | amanda__: sweet. There could be other things wrong too, like the nvidia kernel module, stuff like that | 22:51 |
| spiral | but I really can't see how on earth this is related | 22:52 |
| Cookie | it ask me if i realy wanna do it^ | 22:52 |
| maniheer | yes | 22:52 |
| Cookie | So i want? =p | 22:52 |

| maniheer | cookie, so x is installed | 22:55 |
| dewdude | bummer...the performence of the open-source driver is horrible | 22:55 |

| amanda__ | looks like HAL is the issue | 22:55 |

| phpDEMON | @ergZay: do you mean newest? if so get Jaunty | 23:22 |
| ergZay | my requirements: 1. it needs a out of the box good software firewall (default on many systems) 2. needs a complete development environment with all the "normal" packages that are in many other distros and 3. comes with many of the other standard defaults | 23:22 |
| Evert | bucky: how can i turn it on? | 23:22 |
| ergZay | what most people would call a bloated install | 23:22 |
| ergZay | there are lots of distros based of of ubuntu so im wondering if any of those are it | 23:22 |

| bucky | Evert: right now it works in windows | 23:23 |
| ergZay | durt: devel environment means that for every package that is installed the -devel package is also installed | 23:23 |
| Evert | bucky: it works in windows | 23:23 |
| ergZay | atleast fo rme | 23:23 |
| Dr_Willis | ergZay: there is firewalling features allready there. so #1 is done., | 23:23 |

| ergZay | when i installed ubuntu it took me several days of installing and downloading software to get it "working" | 23:24 |
| Evert | bucky: is there some way to find out in Ubuntu? | 23:24 |
| Dr_Willis | ergZay: there is a firewall.. just not enabled by default.. dont expect everyoen to bend over backwards to include what 'you' think is needed in a default system. Ubuntu has limited itslef to fit on a 700mb media. if you want more 'stuff' try some of the variants that include more things. thers a few out. | 23:24 |
| ergZay | thats not a big plus | 23:24 |
| mezquitale | jester-, have you used ntfsfix yourself? | 23:24 |
| usr13 | Evert: Atheros is fully supported. It should work. BUT if it is not showing up in the output of lspci, well, I don't know what you tell you. | 23:25 |
| ergZay | Dr_Willis: do you know of any? | 23:25 |
| jester- | mezquitale: it work propely | 23:25 |
| losher | ergZay: the live cd installs contain most everything you need to be up & running. You can optionally upgrade them via an internet connection after installation. It isn't essential that you do so, but most people will want to. For a first timer, 8.04 is a good distro to start with | 23:25 |

| ergZay | losher: the live cd install is the most barebones linux system i have ever used | 23:25 |
