| propane | How can I log into root? | 00:00 |
| Dr_Willis | bp0: in usr/share/docs I recall with all the rest of the docs that get installed | 00:00 |
| Cookie | propane? | 00:00 |
| bastidrazor | !root | propane | 00:00 |
| ubottu | propane: 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 | 00:00 |
| Dr_Willis | propane: use 'sudo -s' normally | 00:00 |
| bp0 | or how do i use this to find out what is cifs, how it is different than samba, how to use it instead of samba, which will apparently make it possible to stop saved file's permissions from being changed | 00:00 |
| sjlkg | hi, does anyone if it's possible to get opera to work with a proxy that is set in ubuntu's "network proxy" thing? opera still somehow connects directly without using the proxy | 00:00 |
| Cookie | he could too activate the root | 00:00 |
| 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. | 00:01 |
| badpenguin86 | Bucky: No, it is literally a brand new install, I hit the software drivers tool to activate it, but it said it already was, but it isn't working | 00:01 |
| Cookie | and over sudo gdmsetup actiavte that he is aallowed to login | 00:01 |
| Cookie | or? | 00:01 |
| bucky | badpenguin86: did you install over the wireless? | 00:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Cookie: not a good idea. | 00:01 |
| alexnet | Sorry im very new to linux, what command shows filepermissions? | 00:01 |
| Cookie | Why? :o | 00:01 |
| Cookie | if u change the pwd? | 00:01 |
| bastidrazor | alexnet, ls -al | 00:01 |
| alexnet | thank you :) | 00:01 |
| bucky | alexnet: ls -l | 00:01 |
| Cookie | Erm guys? | 00:02 |
| Cookie | I got a problem | 00:02 |
| alexnet | should i pastebin the results? im not sure how ot make sense of this | 00:02 |
| badpenguin86 | bucky: I installed without being hooked to ethernet, but it should not have activated my wireless without accepting the restricted driver, should it? | 00:02 |
| Cookie | i started installation over terminial for gnome | 00:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Cookie: its generally considered a bad idea by the ubuntu community to login directly as root.. or do anything as root.. tghat could be done vya sudo instead. | 00:02 |
| Cookie | now i just got a blackscreen :o | 00:02 |
| Cookie | hm. | 00:02 |
| bucky | badpenguin86: does ifconfig show your wireless device? | 00:02 |
| alexnet | Ok, i think the issue is that only root has permission to modify this file | 00:03 |
| mezquitale | alexnet, ls -l will give you a list of all your files with permissions, if you try "ls -la" it will also show your hidden files | 00:03 |
| Cookie | When i got a blackscreen, this means i can reboot? | 00:03 |
| Cookie | or what i should do? | 00:03 |
| alexnet | is there a way to launch my scp command in a SUDO fashion? | 00:03 |
| needhelp1 | how can i uninstall the ubuntu media extras | 00:03 |
| badpenguin86 | bucky: Nope, just ethernet and loopback | 00:03 |
| Dr_Willis | alexnet: you could just copy/change teh permissions/ownership of the file.. using scp as root is often consderd a security risk also. | 00:03 |
| david__ | bucky: pulled the graphics card and presto! | 00:03 |
| matreya6 | Cookie, can you get to another terminal using Ctr Alt + F3 or so? | 00:03 |
| SeaPhor | Cookie, move the mouse or hit spacebar | 00:03 |

| SeaPhor | Cookie, sorry missed the first | 00:04 |
| needhelp1 | i ran a script yesterday and decided i dont wont them.. it was in terminal something like sudo apt-get ubuntu-restricted-extras | 00:04 |
| Cookie | terminal is again there | 00:04 |
| alexnet | Dr_Willis, okay... so how would i give permissions to the account "alex" to write/make folders | 00:04 |
| needhelp1 | how do i uninstall those ? | 00:04 |
| uKnow | can any one help me set up my dlink dwl 520 wireless card on ubuntu | 00:04 |
| badpenguin86 | bucky: how do I fix it? I deactivated and reactivated it in the restricted drivers tool | 00:04 |
| Dr_Willis | alexnet: or chown the files to be owned by alex dependong on the details of what you are doing. | 00:04 |
| needhelp1 | OttifantSir: hey you on? | 00:04 |
| bucky | badpenguin86: have you googled this | 00:04 |
| Dr_Willis | alexnet: or chmod the files to be readable by anyone. | 00:04 |
| jerknextdoor | can anyone help me understand /var/log/messages? | 00:05 |
| badpenguin86 | bucky: Nah, figured best help was on here. I can look though | 00:05 |
| matreya6 | Cookie, but did the gnome install work, or did it not? | 00:05 |
| alexnet | Dr_Willis, my goal is to allow winscp to use the account "alex" to upload files into this folder, what sort of chmod/chown command should i run in this case? | 00:05 |
| Dr_Willis | needhelp1: thats a meta-pacakge that installs a lot of things.. and most likely you do want a few of the things it installed.. java, flash, fonts. | 00:05 |
| badeagle | How do i download an install all the same libraries i have except in amd64 instead of i386 and install them side-by-side so i can use them to compile for amd64? | 00:05 |
| needhelp1 | Dr_Willis: im conserned about security.. | 00:05 |
| Dr_Willis | alexnet: sudo chown alex.alex whateverdir | 00:05 |
| needhelp1 | is there anything in that package that would pose a security threat or hole | 00:05 |
| Dr_Willis | needhelp1: its not really a security issue.. | 00:05 |
| OttifantSir | needhelp1: Yeah, watching the room, Friday the 13th and eating. What's up? | 00:05 |
| fuzzybunny69y | hey everyone I have a external hardrive that is formatted with the hfsplus filesystem(mac) and I am trying to backup some information onto it inside Ubuntu and even if I am root it will not let me copy files to it. Does anyone know what I could do to copy stuff to it? | 00:06 |
| sjlkg | hi, does anyone if it's possible to get opera to work with a proxy that is set in ubuntu's "network proxy" thing? opera still somehow connects directly without using the proxy | 00:06 |
| Dr_Willis | needhelp1: unless you consider flash and java to be security issues. | 00:06 |
| matreya6 | Dr_Willis, that should probably be alex:alex, not alex.alex | 00:06 |
| Dr_Willis | matreya6: it does it both ways i recall. | 00:06 |
| bucky | alex.alex works | 00:06 |
| matreya6 | Dr_Willis, neat | 00:06 |

| Cookie | I tried to install Gnome Network manager | 00:10 |
| matreya6 | tech_help, I advise you to move to Pidgin, which is the successor of gaim | 00:10 |
| jerknextdoor | fuzzybunny69y: after spending weeks working on getting it to work, i got it to work by a fluke and havent been able to get it to work again. in reality it would have been better to just to borrow a drive back up stuff to it. format your external ext3 and then put everything back. | 00:10 |

| p4r4c3lsus | When you say grub does not run, what does that mean - you don't get the grub menu? Does stage 1 load okay? | 00:11 |
| Cookie | What u mean ? | 00:11 |
| linuxguy2009 | When using the terminal are the | and > characters related? Does one represent stdout (a guess) and | is used for file manipulation? That right? | 00:11 |

| p4r4c3lsus | You can try booting to the install CD, using rescue mode to boot the OS and then repair / reinstall grub from within the OS once booted. | 00:12 |
| Pici | Cookie: Why did you uninstall HAL? | 00:12 |
| Cookie | I wanted to reinstall it. | 00:12 |
| jerknextdoor | fuzzybunny69y: i can't remember well enough how i got it to work. but i found everything i could via google. if i think of something i'll let you know. | 00:12 |
| Cookie | Because the installer of GnomeNetworkManager said i would miss it | 00:12 |

I got so far as to begin configuring my encrypted volumes and now I have the following issues: 1) I left no unencrypted space for dual booting windows. 2) I cannot have more than one partition created in my encrypted volume because I have 2 primary (including the primary in use by the encrypted volume) and it won't let me. 3) I can | 00:27 |

| CatEater | th0r: yes, and i asked how to do that, and someone said use the menu option, and i did, and vbox didn't respond | 00:28 |
| KnMn | Cookie: there's a story behind the wifi. I accidentally kicked my little USB wifi stick and broke it. My friend gave me another one that he wasn't using to replace it.

| th0r | CatEater: no, that's what I am saying...you have to do it within each vm. For instance, if you install suse linux, you have to install the Guest Additions for linux in Suse. There is an iso in /usr/share/virtualbox that has all the additions for the various OSs | 00:29 |

| analord_masplid | James_1 go to System Monitor | 00:55 |
| Amid | Thank you :) | 00:55 |
| analord_masplid | System --> Admin --> Sys Monitor | 00:56 |
| analord_masplid | should be there | 00:56 |

| james_S | analord_masplid, shows two cpus and 4GB ram, no GPU or VRAM | 00:56 |

| jerknextdoor | bobbi: yup. just ran it an hour or so ago. it came out error free. | 00:56 |
| analord_masplid | james, try 'free -m' or 'free -mt' (without quotes) in the terminal | 00:57 |
| CatEater | th0r: i think i figured it out, ubuntu knows when you put a disc in, but if it thinks there's a disc in, it doesn't know when you eject or insert a disc yourself | 00:57 |
| phoenix1 | and another thing why cant i play swf | 00:57 |
| james_S | shows 3895 MB ram, but there should be an additional GB from the vram (64bit) | 00:57 |
| th0r | CatEater: I have noticed that with the cd drive...I always have to Eject it from the file manager menu | 00:58 |
| CatEater | so you have to eject the old one with the menu, then unmount and remount from vbox | 00:58 |
| phoenix1 | those files are paramount to the reason i have ubuntu i need them to perform my tasks | 00:58 |
| th0r | who | 00:58 |
| bobbi | jerknextdoor: I had a samsung mem stick pass, but it only found a error once after a all night run, I removed it computer is fine | 00:59 |

| phoenix1 | anyone got any suggestions? | 00:59 |
| CatEater | th0r: there's a .pkg in the root of the disc, is that what i want? | 00:59 |
| th0r | CatEater: when you get the CD mounted, you need to run the linux package, I think it is a .run file if I remember right | 01:00 |
| jrib | phoenix1: yep, ask a question | 01:00 |
| th0r | CatEater: you need to run it as root...easiest from a terminal | 01:00 |

| Dazappa | jrib: the dependency is libxi6; and I think the problem is that it's installed but apt doesn't realize it | 01:05 |
| james_S | analord_masplid, the log file is there btw | 01:06 |
| phoenix1 | right ok | 01:06 |
| andybe | bazhang: I got an special photograph jpg, with red yellow green cyan blue purpur - all this colors showing up wrong. But GIMP does it right. | 01:06 |
| jrib | Dazappa: where did you install lazarus-ide and libxi6 from? | 01:06 |
| phoenix1 | basically im tryin to get swf to play also trying to update my current programs tht are installed in the system and havent got a clue what to do about the serious alerts firestarter keeps giving me | 01:06 |
| rubyist | no help? :( | 01:06 |
| rubyist | it's a simple problem i'd think.. | 01:07 |
| analord_masplid | oh ok. what version of ubuntu are u running atm? 9.04? | 01:07 |
| james_S | correct | 01:07 |
| Jeruvy | jrib: http://packages.ubuntu.com/tr/jaunty/lazarus-ide | 01:08 |
| bazhang | andybe, I dont see a question in there | 01:08 |
| analord_masplid | have you asked the members at ubuntuforums.org your question yet? they may tell you if it's because of your liveCD or not | 01:08 |
| jrib | Jeruvy: :/ | 01:08 |
| james_S | analord_masplid, ok, I'll go with that. | 01:08 |
| phoenix1 | oh and 1 more thing where can i go to discuss darknets in detail? | 01:08 |
| andybe | bazhang: what type of bug is that, I wanne set it up. that's the qustion | 01:08 |
| Dazappa | I think libxi6 came installed, I installed lazarus-ide from http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/; version .9.26.2 , don't know if it was .deb or .rpm as it was quite a while ago. | 01:08 |
| james_S | trying one last thing (proprietary drivers) | 01:08 |
| bazhang | andybe, 'gimp does it right' ? | 01:09 |
| jrib | Dazappa: uninstall it. Use apt instead to install lazarus-ide from the official repositories | 01:09 |
| andybe | bazhang: yes it does. | 01:09 |
| CatEater | when i try to tab complete in bash, it just prints a list of suggestions, it doesn't actually complete the word for me. how do i get this to work right? | 01:09 |
| Scunizi | CatEater: you have to type more characters.. | 01:10 |
| Dazappa | jrib: Last I checked, apt was 3-4 versions behind and I didn't want that. BUT, seeing as apt and you both say to do that, I guess I will.. | 01:10 |
| jrib | Dazappa: is there a particular issue with the older version? | 01:10 |
| bazhang | andybe, not sure how that is a bug; you can file a bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug if you wish | 01:10 |
| th0r | CatEater: if you don't type enough characters it gives you a lisst of possibilities | 01:10 |
| merlin_ie | Hi everyone. can i ask a question regarding conky? | 01:10 |
| CatEater | Scunizi: that would mean typing nearly the whole filename, so what's the point of tab completion? | 01:10 |
| phoenix1 | is there an out of the box ubuntu i can use | 01:10 |
| ryanakca | How do I check the integrity of a burned image from the command line? | 01:10 |
| andybe | bazhang: can i send find in this channel? | 01:10 |
| CatEater | can i make it actually complete the word i'm trying to type? | 01:10 |
| jrib | !verify > ryanakca | 01:10 |
| ubottu | ryanakca, please see my private message | 01:10 |
| rmrfslash | Does Ubuntu use CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=y by default? | 01:10 |
| Jeruvy | Dazappa: if you build it, then you have to deal with dependancies, and thats the biggest pita with building, if your ok with an older version stick to the repo's. | 01:10 |
| Dazappa | jrib: the lazarus program takes great strides in its development each release. From critical bug fixes, to big features such as tray and icon support. I just wanted the most up-to-date version. | 01:11 |
| Scunizi | CatEater: it doesn't always work that way.. it really depends on the file your typing.. if there is a lot of similarities between files then you run into that problem. | 01:11 |
| minimec | phoenix1: would be hardy heron probably | 01:11 |
| bazhang | andybe, send the bug from this channel? no, you need to go to that website | 01:11 |
| dsdeiz | what's up ubuntu guys?? :) | 01:11 |
| andybe | testing... | 01:11 |
| jrib | Dazappa: I would check if there is really anything that warrants the extra hassle of building your own first | 01:11 |
| CatEater | Scunizi: do you seriously type out all 60 characters of the filename in that case? | 01:11 |
| rainwalker | this has probably been asked a million times, but if I install the firefox-3.5 package in Synaptic (which apparently got updated to the final version), will it replace the firefox-3.0 already installed? | 01:12 |
| Scunizi | CatEater: what is the file? | 01:12 |
| bazhang | rainwalker, no | 01:12 |
| phoenix1 | minimec do you have a link and will the core files do what i want them to do like windows for instance | 01:12 |
| CatEater | it's a file with a long name, with another one with a similar name in the same folder | 01:12 |
| rainwalker | bazhang: what will it do? | 01:12 |
| CatEater | on windows, i could easily tab-complete the filename, so what's the easy way on ubuntu? | 01:12 |
| bazhang | andybe, please dont try to dcc me anything; file a bug if you wish at that website listed above | 01:13 |
| Scunizi | CatEater: then yes.. you can continue to hit tab as you type to quickly fill in the blanks but if they are similar you have an issue with bash recognizing which one you want | 01:13 |
| jrib | CatEater: tab tab | 01:13 |
| velcroshooz | is 3.5 final actually in the repos now? | 01:13 |
| jrib | CatEater: you can change how tab completion works in bash (ask #bash) | 01:13 |
| bazhang | rainwalker, exist side by side; it is called shiretoko in the internet apps menu | 01:13 |
| rainwalker | velcroshooz: that's what I've read | 01:13 |
| Flannel | velcroshooz: yes. firefox-3.5 | 01:14 |
| phoenix1 | jrib can i pm you pls | 01:14 |
| jrib | phoenix1: please use #ubuntu | 01:14 |
| jrib | I'll respond here if I can help you... | 01:14 |
| CatEater | cool now i'm getting somewhere | 01:14 |
| rainwalker | bazhang: is it true that it's been updated to the latest release? | 01:14 |
| CatEater | jrib: you're in #ubuntu | 01:14 |
| abarbaccia | so i installed a program using make / make install, then later uninstalled it with make uninstall, but when i type the executable name, instead of saying "command not found" it says "/usr/local/bin/progname: No such file or directory" why? | 01:14 |
| minimec | phoenix1: How can I know what you want to do with a computer? If you want a decent opensource software OS, give Ubuntu a try. Chek Hardware Compability first ;) | 01:14 |
| CatEater | oh i misunderstood nm | 01:14 |
| bazhang | rainwalker, Yes. | 01:14 |
| ryanakca | jrib: thanks | 01:14 |
| andybe | bazhang: which one?? | 01:14 |

| sephy__ | I guess Wine doesn't support no-cd patches =/ | 01:16 |
| thon0925 | please don't laugh, but I accidently move /bin to a different place | 01:17 |
| bazhang | rainwalker, I have not had to | 01:17 |
| sephy__ | for morrowind that is | 01:17 |
| rainwalker | bazhang: ah, so I'm guessing you're successfully running 3.5? | 01:17 |
| Guest95552 | can any one help me out | 01:17 |
| bazhang | rainwalker, correct | 01:17 |
| minimec | phoenix1: Shockwave isn't available for Linux I think. | 01:17 |
| danbhfive | sephy__: did you check the appdb? | 01:17 |
| sephy__ | Yes. it says Morrowind is Gold | 01:17 |
| thon0925 | I was building a kernel and accidently typed mv /bin/ instead of mv bin/ | 01:18 |
| phoenix1 | ok but there must be a way to play swf | 01:18 |
| thon0925 | is there anyway to get bin back to the root? | 01:18 |
| Bryan1 | Is there anyway I can use Photoshop Cs3 on Ubuntu? I'm new so yea | 01:18 |
| danbhfive | sephy__: yes, but there are instructions sometimes about how to get it working. Maybe someone left a comment about your issue? | 01:18 |
| AssociateX | what do I have to do to get synaptic to install? apt-get install synaptic is not working. it says package is not available | 01:18 |
| sephy__ | I'll go take a peek, thanks ;) | 01:18 |
| bazhang | Bryan1, check the appdb for wine | 01:18 |
| bazhang | !appdb > Bryan1 | 01:18 |
| ubottu | Bryan1, please see my private message | 01:18 |

| AssociateX | thank you thon0925 | 01:19 |
| phoenix1 | best get an antivirus brian1 | 01:19 |
| andybe | hopefully i don't hurt to much | 01:19 |
| uknow | do u have to have the internet for apt-get udate to work | 01:19 |
| cornjuliox | is it possible to install ubuntu on a flash drive? i'm in a situation that calls for a portable system that i can take and use anywhere regardless of the computer i'm in front of. | 01:19 |
| uknow | update* | 01:19 |
| Bryan1 | how do I private message?? | 01:19 |
| rainwalker | bazhang: wow, it sees all the plugins too, cool! thank you :) | 01:20 |
| minimec | phoenix1: Adobe support of Linux is quiet an interresting story... | 01:20 |
| thon0925 | cornjuliox: use unetbootin | 01:20 |
| sephy__ | Now I feel no-so-cool | 01:20 |
| sebsebseb | phoenix1 heh heh at telling Bryan1 that he needs an antivirus for it | 01:20 |
| sephy__ | I failed to read the comments | 01:20 |
| sephy__ | and it's garbage | 01:20 |
| phoenix1 | lol | 01:20 |
| === sephy__ is now known as Sephy | ||
| sebsebseb | Bryan1: some Windows viruses will work in Wine, but probably not properly and far from properly | 01:20 |
| phoenix1 | sebsebseb like your thinking too | 01:20 |
| sebsebseb | Bryan1: well yes some will work in it, but won't do much to Wine profile | 01:21 |
| uknow | do u have to have the internet for apt-get update to work | 01:21 |
| Bryan1 | I just need Photoshop Cs3 to work | 01:21 |
| thon0925 | uknow: yes | 01:21 |
| gmachine_24 | I have a dual-boot laptop running Vista and Ubuntu 9.04. Wireless is configured and works for both at my home - but when I'm at *Starbucks*, my connection always drops when I'm running Ubuntu - but wireless works fine under Windows XP. I have this identical problem on two laptops that are both dual-boot (the second runs Windows XP). | 01:21 |
| uknow | can u download a update then put it on cd | 01:21 |
| bazhang | Bryan1, then do as I suggested, wine help in #winehq | 01:21 |
| Bryan1 | okies | 01:21 |
| sarloth | uknow: yes, you can get the .deb file and put it on a cd | 01:21 |
| phoenix1 | tbh sebsebseb i moved from windows because its as much use as a chocolate fireguard | 01:22 |
| th0r | CatEater: I hope you are having better luck in ubuntu than I am having with solaris | 01:22 |
| sebsebseb | Bryan1: and with enough RAM you can try a Windows virtual machine inside Ubuntu for it | 01:22 |
| buttly | so would anyone know about getting a BCM4318 WLAN card to detect and connect to wireless networks under 9.04 | 01:22 |

| bazhang | EXCLUSIVE, stay on topic | 01:25 |
| CatEater | i was hoping that rather than "most do", i could get a name of one that you use that definitely does | 01:25 |
| andrew_46 | CatEater: Use the tab key? | 01:25 |
| EXCLUSIVE | ok | 01:25 |
| donavan01 | anyone know why my audio just keeps kicking the bucket ... works fine for a day or so then it craps out and I have to reboot | 01:25 |
| CatEater | andrew_46: as i explained, that doesn't work | 01:25 |
| CatEater | it just lists suggestions, it doesn't put them where i'm typing | 01:25 |
| phoenix1 | can someone explain this firestarter to me please | 01:26 |
| andrew_46 | CatEater: It lists choices available according to what you have typed s far | 01:26 |
| thon0925 | phoenix1: it's a firewall | 01:26 |
| dtchen | donavan01: hardy? intrepid? jaunty? karmic? | 01:26 |
| thon0925 | phoenix1: and it can also bridge connections | 01:26 |
| phoenix1 | lol well im getting that i dont think i would install it otherwise | 01:26 |
| merlin_ie | been using linux about 2 months now, but i'm nearly sure i've seen some conky scripts doing that | 01:27 |
| donavan01 | dtchen: 8.1 (can't remeber which one that is) | 01:27 |
| CatEater | andrew_46: and that's completely useless! | 01:27 |
| DPic | there are some drivers on windows that allow a laptop's touchpad to not be affected by anything but fingertips so that your palms won't mess with the mouse while you're typing. Is there something on ubuntu for this? | 01:27 |
| phoenix1 | the issue is the "serious events" what do i do about them if i was using my kaspersky i would know but im not | 01:27 |
| dtchen | donavan01: intrepid if it's 8.10 (the trailing zero is significant, since it stands for october) | 01:27 |
| CatEater | i need the filename where i'm typing it, not in the scrollback! | 01:27 |
| KrispyKreme | Everytime I login to ubuntu, it asks for a keyring password to access my internet. How can i remove this if possible? | 01:27 |
| alexnet | How can i setup phpmyadmin to be accessible via https only? | 01:28 |
| Dr_Willis | merlin_ie doing what? Ive been editing my conky stuff all week. :) | 01:28 |
| th0r | CatEater: could that be a problem related to using XP as the host? I have tab complete in all the OSs I have installed (seven so far) | 01:28 |
| donavan01 | dtchen: didnt know that ... but yeah its 8.10 | 01:28 |
| merlin_ie | @Krispy....first time you set it up, i should say to " always allow "....well, does for me | 01:28 |
| CatEater | th0r: it certainly can't have anything to do with the host | 01:28 |
| CatEater | a tab is a tab is a tab | 01:28 |
| phoenix1 | thon0925 any suggestions? | 01:28 |
| dtchen | donavan01: how does it "kick the bucket"? are audio apps just inaudible? does the machine freeze? | 01:28 |
| thon0925 | KrispyKreme: sudo rm -r /home/USERNAME/.gnome2/keyrings | 01:28 |
| Scunizi | I'm having a wierd issue emailing someone with a domain name @gat.com.. It's getting bounced back to me and show a domain name of @ga.com.. looks like the "t" is being eliminated.. this is through Evolution.. any ideas? | 01:29 |
| thon0925 | phoenix1: Serious events are harmless | 01:29 |
| andrew_46 | CatEater: But tab completion cannot guess your final choice of filenames if there are many matches | 01:29 |
| phoenix1 | thanks for clearing that up | 01:29 |
| donavan01 | dtchen: no sound but the system seems to think its playing them just fine mp3 video and even flash | 01:29 |
| merlin_ie | sorry Dr Willis..i saw something someone had posted (then scrollbar didnt move down any further to show more msgs lol but they asked this ) can someone please suggest a program to analyse disk activity, i need to know what software is doing read/writes on my HD | 01:29 |
| KrispyKreme | thon0925, is there really a use for those keyrings? | 01:29 |
| phoenix1 | how do i update installed programs | 01:30 |
| CatEater | andrew_46: but it can cycle through them, like windows does | 01:30 |
| matreya6 | phoenix, just use synaptic and look for updates | 01:30 |
| CatEater | andrew_46: i'm not asking for guessing! why do people talk about guessing? | 01:30 |
| thon0925 | KrispyKreme: It keeps your passwords saved, so you only need one password to access all of the saved ones | 01:30 |
| merlin_ie | and i've been mucking with conky for a few days...gonna start a Conky AA soon i think | 01:30 |
| phoenix1 | what that installs updates for my programs too? | 01:30 |
| matreya6 | phoenix, yess, much better than on windows, eh? | 01:31 |
| phoenix1 | sweet im starting to like this | 01:31 |
| propane | !torrents | 01:31 |
| ubottu | Jaunty can be torrented from http://hr.releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your archieecture. Torrents for other Ubuntu flavours can be found at: http://it.releases.ubuntu.com/ (CD) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases (DVD). | 01:31 |
| bazhang | http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/ phoenix1 you should have a read of this for some basic Ubuntu concepts | 01:31 |
| phoenix1 | perfect ty bazhang | 01:31 |
| matreya6 | It's2:30 here, gotta hit me bunk | 01:31 |
| KrispyKreme | thon0925, so removing it should be harmless right? | 01:31 |
| propane | The Ubuntu torrents run slow, by the way. | 01:32 |
| donavan01 | dtchen seems like the audio driver or something gets all goofy and a reboot reloads them ... bad memory allocation or something wasnt sure is anyone knew of anything ... I was thinking about just biting the bullet and upgrading to 9.(whatever it is) | 01:32 |
| thon0925 | KrispyKreme: yes, it will regenerate if you try to store passwords again | 01:32 |
| matreya6 | Nighty night or good morning, wherever you are (signing off...) | 01:32 |

| iMatter | Excuse me, is there anyone here to help, i know ive been here all day/night but im having serious issues | 02:20 |
| Baba_B00ie | iMatter, whats the problem ? | 02:21 |
| bazhang | insigne_, /join #ubuntu-br | 02:21 |
| iMatter | Baba_B00ie, First, Extreamly slow Wi-Fi Speeds, in hardy i had 600-800KB/s ALWAYS, in jaunty im getting 15-30KB/s IF THAT | 02:22 |
| Okay | do you guys use xchat? if not what is a better alternative? | 02:22 |
| === john is now known as Guest3626 | ||
| merlin_ie | i think i heard something about this iMatter. some ppl said to check ports | 02:22 |
| Baba_B00ie | imatter, whats the chipset of your wifi chip ? | 02:22 |
| merlin_ie | i wouldnt know as I'm on crappy usb net | 02:23 |
| iMatter | Baba_B00ie, Atheros AR5006 | 02:23 |
| majikman | does anyone here know how ubuntu's version of tomcat directories relate to the apache version? | 02:23 |
| Baba_B00ie | imatter, check around the net, see if there's any known problems with that chipset. | 02:23 |
| Baba_B00ie | imatter, i'm not aware of any but doesn't mean that wouldnt be the case | 02:23 |
| iMatter | Baba_B00ie, Also, in the LiveCD pidgin etc went to some Messages icon in panel, its not going there anymore | 02:24 |
| iMatter | Baba_B00ie, Top Panel | 02:24 |
| OttifantSir | !best | Okay | 02:24 |
| ubottu | Okay: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 02:24 |
| Baba_B00ie | imatter, pidgin did what ? | 02:25 |
| iMatter | Baba_B00ie, Erm, could the bit rate its set to have to do with it? in Hardy i beileave it was 54 in jaunty its configured at 18 | 02:25 |
| iMatter | Baba_B00ie, In the Live CD it had like a mail icon in top dock and when you minimized pidgin it went there, its not going there...so if i accidentally exit pidgin i can't find it again and have to restart it | 02:25 |
| fetusbubble | the indicator applet for the panel? | 02:26 |
| Okay | OttifantSir, what do you use? | 02:26 |
| DPic | how can i find out what webcam i have? it isn't supported out of the box so i think i'll need to install a driver for it | 02:26 |

| ubottu | DPic: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 02:26 |
| iMatter | fetusbubble, yea | 02:26 |
| OttifantSir | iMatter: The icon is, for me at least, a white square with a green ball in the lower-right corner | 02:27 |
| fetusbubble | mm | 02:27 |
| iMatter | fetusbubble, looked like a mail icon with a green glowing dot in the middle, and when you pressed it it had a list under it | 02:27 |
| merlin_ie | iMatter : i accidently deleted my minimized icon for pidgin yesterday so i removed pidgin, deleted .purple folder and then reinstalled and it gave back the icon in taskbar | 02:27 |
| fetusbubble | yeah | 02:27 |
| DPic | jrib, i was looking at /webcam and it had instructions to install drivers but not to find out which webcam you actually have lol | 02:27 |
| DPic | jrib, thanks for the other links | 02:27 |
| fetusbubble | iMatter: there's an icon for the system tray too, but it's disabled by default | 02:27 |
| fetusbubble | iirc | 02:27 |
| rww | iMatter: right-click the panel, add to panel, indicator applet, add. | 02:27 |
| merlin_ie | mind you, it's a different icon now, but at least it works | 02:27 |

| kangarooo | i have some problem.. i have xubuntu and had ubuntu couse i thought that ubuntu is taking too much resources..now i started windows xp on dual boot witch i was using 1/2 y ago last time. and its faster then xubuntu.. maybe i havent installed some video driver? if so then what information i should gather from windows? i made screenshots display properties. | 02:30 |
| lolcash | Probably need to post this on ikariam.org forum and c if anybody else has this problem but thought I might ask here first. I play a browser based game ikariam.org, it is very very slow running in firefox on ubuntu. Boot up windows on here and no problems using firefox and loading times. Any suggestions? | 02:30 |
| merlin_ie | so, its actually good..might just leave it...until i have " last pidgin msg " script workin for conky | 02:30 |
| iMatter | Okay, well how would i use iWconfig to change bitrate? | 02:31 |
| prkos | Hi all :) I need help finding a text editor with a special feature of Find and Replace, I remember using it before but can't determine which one it was, I tried gedit, eclipse (with aptana) and OOwriter. The feature I'm after is that the Find text changes automatically as I highlight text, not just the first time I start Find and Replace | 02:31 |
| merlin_ie | only new to linux prkos so i wouldnt know..sorry | 02:32 |
| merlin_ie | sounds like something i could use though | 02:33 |
| prkos | thanx anyway :) | 02:33 |

| bastidrazor | clearscreen, /usr/local/bin would be a good place to put the binaries. | 02:33 |

| fetusbubble | i use my livecd for when my x.org dies and then i'm forced to recover my files somehow. | 02:35 |

| lwells | mobi-sheep: sorry, Noob | 02:35 |
| fetusbubble | like it did 2 months ago | 02:35 |

| Guitar | Well the HDD on this PC is dead so I'm getting to use it until they person who I was "fixing" it for takes it back. | 02:36 |
| merlin_ie | fetusbubble..is that like Remastersys? | 02:36 |
| lwells | bazhang: Begginer that I guess | 02:36 |
| mobi-sheep | lwells: What are you trying to do? | 02:36 |
| clearscreen | bastidrazor: I mean, I can put a link to the binary in /usr/local/bin .. but where do I place all of the application's files? | 02:36 |
| fetusbubble | what's that? | 02:36 |
| merlin_ie | i came across that other day, thought it b handy to have | 02:36 |

| mobi-sheep | lwells: Only you and nothing but you? | 02:37 |
| merlin_ie | it backs up whole system so if u ever need to format, u can pop in the cd u create and it'll reinstall all you had..even settings....or so it says | 02:37 |

| lolcash | omg bazhang ty so much for bosting that (seriously) | 02:37 |
| lwells | mobi-sheep: Yes | 02:37 |
| bastidrazor | clearscreen, most applications will make user specific configs for each user in their home. putting the binary in /usr/local/bin will allow them to access the program and files they need will be in their ~/ | 02:37 |
| merlin_ie | i made a test iso, but need to pop it into virtualbox to test it | 02:37 |
| mobi-sheep | lwells: Use openssh-server. You'll have access to everything. | 02:37 |
| lwells | mobi-sheep: but want to use a ftp program on my mac to do it | 02:38 |
| fetusbubble | oh, that's interesting | 02:38 |

| bastidrazor | clearscreen, how did you install the program? | 02:39 |
| merlin_ie | i think the iso i created was 1.7gb | 02:39 |
| mobi-sheep | lwells: "sudo aptitude install openssh-server" and you're done. If you want to be able to access in your machine from outside of your local network, you'll need to set up port forwarding on port 22. | 02:39 |
| legend2440 | i just installed firefox 3.5. now i would like to uninstall firefox 3.0 but as part of the uninstall it is going to uninstall sun-java6-plugin and ubufox.is that goung to mess anything up? when i reinstall sun-java6-plugin will firefox 3.5 find it and be able to use it? | 02:39 |
| merlin_ie | but i dont have much stuff installed yet | 02:39 |
| clearscreen | bastidrazor: I didn't, it's a tarball with precompiled binaries and some other files | 02:39 |
| lwells | k thanks | 02:39 |
| clearscreen | I just need a centralized location to place the directory.. I can always add a symlink to the main binary in /usr/local/bin | 02:40 |

| === w4ett-AWAY is now known as w4ett | ||
| bastidrazor | clearscreen, /usr/local/src would be a good place. make a directory for your app. | 02:41 |
| clearscreen | I also don't think src/ is a very logical directory to place compiled binaries in :P | 02:42 |
| bastidrazor | clearscreen, the binaries need to go in /usr/local/bin in order for them to be used by all. the rest of your 'other files' could reside in /usr/local/src .. if you're wanting a place to put files .. that is acceptable | 02:43 |

| Okay | DanDare, make sure most of your hardware work under ubuntu | 02:49 |
| mobi-sheep | DanDare: Are you looking for stable or you like to thrive on bleeding edge? | 02:49 |
| Okay | mobi-sheep, what's bleeding edge mean? | 02:50 |
| mobi-sheep | Ubuntu 8.04 LTS would be most stable -- however, I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and it's stable too. LTS is mainly used for business / school / etc -- Something that people wouldn't mess around often. | 02:50 |

| merlin_ie | sorry | 02:52 |
| mobi-sheep | DanDare: Use LTS and you'll have no problem. You'll be using old versions -- but that's just about closest thing you can get to Debian since Debian is known for most stablest OS. | 02:52 |

| merlin_ie | bah, always too late | 03:02 |
| unforgiven512 | cn28h, andLinux? | 03:03 |
| mazda01 | i've checked out gnome nautilus script examples and I can't figure out all the zenity stuff. Any help would be much appreciated. | 03:03 |
| dolo | i have an external drive from a macintosh pc | 03:04 |
| cn28h | unforgiven512, ooh, that rings a bell. I think that might be it | 03:04 |
| darkhamm | hey people, i installed the package "kubuntu-desktop" to install entirely the kde, now i would completely remove it, how can i remove all the packages installed with this? | 03:04 |
| dolo | and would like to mount it in ubuntu | 03:04 |
| unforgiven512 | www.andlinux.org | 03:04 |
| darkhamm | if i uninstall "kubuntu-desktop" i remove only the metapackage... | 03:04 |
| dolo | then copy and format it to ntfs | 03:04 |
| mobi-sheep | !puregnome | darkhamm | 03:04 |
| ubottu | darkhamm: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 03:04 |
| cn28h | yup, that looks like it! thanks | 03:04 |

| william56 | is there no way in ubuntu to perform the equivalent of an 'apt-get upgrade' except building from source instead of downloading prebuilt packages? | 03:05 |
| kitty_ | hello, i am having problems setting up my xorg.conf, specifically setting resolution and refresh rates, if i remove the xorg.conf and let it fail a few times it'll load the fail safe which works fine in (low graphics mode) | 03:05 |

| mazda01 | darkhamm, a little google would ahve resulted you this: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome | 03:05 |
| mobi-sheep | william56: apt-build. | 03:06 |
| mazda01 | dolo, what's the filesystem on it. is it HFS+? | 03:06 |
| william56 | ahhhh, thanks | 03:06 |
| dolo | mazda01: not sure i cant seem to load it in linux | 03:06 |
| mazda01 | dolo, plug it in and tehn tell me what this command comes back with. sudo fdisk -l | 03:06 |
| darkhamm | mobi-sheep: yes, but i want only know if i can install "kubuntu-desktop" with a result in synaptic/apt-get and why i can't do the reverse... | 03:06 |
| linuxguy2009 | Does the linux swap partition work the same way as the Windows swap file? You only need it if you have low amount of ram? Ive never seen it used on my system and was just going to erase that partition. | 03:06 |
| kitty_ | dolo, if its usb, plug it in, dmesg|tail and then mount /dev/(whateverpopped up in the dmesg output as getting connected) /wherever/you/want/it/mounted | 03:06 |
| mobi-sheep | darkhamm: Because kubuntu-desktop is a mega-package. | 03:06 |
| dolo | mazda01: When I plug it in nothing happens drive doesnt even come on | 03:06 |
| robstafarian | why would ALSA change behavior after 'startx'? | 03:06 |
| mazda01 | dolo, it might not. just plug it in and report back what I asked for please. | 03:07 |
| bazhang | !metapackage > darkhamm | 03:07 |
| ubottu | darkhamm, please see my private message | 03:07 |
| mobi-sheep | darkhamm: It's full of symbolic links to pull in certain packages. Not an actual package. | 03:07 |

| Rovanion | Hello guys, I have a problem here. When i run sudo apt-get update I get an error from a repo, but I cant seem to find it in /etc/apt/sources.list. Are there any other place where sources are listed that I may remove this faulty repo? | 03:07 |
| mazda01 | Rovanion, not that I am aware of. | 03:08 |
| Rovanion | mazda01: Can I tell apt to ignore errors and update the repos which he can? | 03:08 |
| darkhamm | mobi-sheep: then i would must remove all the "dependencies" if in intallation, i've an automatic list of packages... | 03:09 |
| mazda01 | Rovanion, sure, it will just ignore them anyway since they error out. what is the error? | 03:09 |
| robstafarian | I am running 8.10, and have switched to ALSA from PusleAudio. Sound works fine at the console (I boot to a console), but after starting X ALSA says "no such device" to my user and ALSA behaves normally for root | 03:09 |
| Rovanion | mazda01: I got a to Swedish translated edition but the first error is a 404 Not Found | 03:10 |
| darkhamm | mobi-sheep: i've fear if i follow a "puregnome" command, i don't uninstall all the packages installed with "kubuntu-desktop" | 03:10 |
| mobi-sheep | darkhamm: Use the command in link I gave you or the ubottu factorid command. This is only relevant when you install meta-package. 99% of the time, you'll be dealing with actual packages. | 03:10 |
| binho | alguma brasileira? | 03:10 |
| bazhang | binho, /join #ubuntu-br | 03:10 |
| mazda01 | Rovanion, that's fine. it may mean that repo is no longer around. and you're sure you can't find it in your sources.list or when you open System, Administration, Repositories. Look for it there in 3rd party Repo also. then just remove it. | 03:11 |
| mobi-sheep | darkhamm: It will. Aptitude (and now apt-get) keep history of dependencies so when you remove a certain package, it'll look into the dependencies linked to the said package and if it's no longer need, it'll be gone. ;o | 03:11 |
| uknow | once more can somebody help me install a D-link DWL 520 wireless card on unbuntu | 03:11 |
| yesitisjustme | i fixed the problem :) | 03:12 |
| mazda01 | darkhamm, just run it with "-s" without the quotes and it will simulate the command but not execute anything. then you can look through the result to see what it will remove. | 03:12 |
| mazda01 | darkhamm, do sudo aptitude remove -s packagenamesherewithspacesbetweenthem | 03:12 |
| Rovanion | mazda01: I'm actually running LinuxMint at the moment which is Ubuntu but with some extra polish on the UI. So there is actually no repositories UI, I don't know why. | 03:13 |
| darkhamm | can i have the list of packages installed when i clik "kubuntu-desktop"? | 03:13 |

| iMatter | <JohnRobert> with your irqs or something | 03:17 |
| codered1444 | how come torrent speeds are slower in ubuntu | 03:17 |
| mobi-sheep | dragonlotus: If you're using alternative disc, it's a little complicated because of the interaction between the user and the menu. It's menu-driven so some things will appear as if you're doing nothing and other things, you'll be able to change. You need to destroy the partition and create a new (smaller) partition. | 03:17 |
| bastidrazor | codered1444, do you have the ports forwarded? | 03:18 |
| codered1444 | yeah the torrent ports are forwarded on my router 6902 | 03:18 |
| dragonlotus | mobi-sheep: how to destroy the encrypted volume so I can destroy the physical volume? | 03:19 |

| Jason2gs | Brightness, contrast, image control, stuff like that. | 03:24 |
| Tenkawa | mobi-sheep: rather that is | 03:24 |
| moltenbobcat | Jason2gs: there is almost certainly a way to do it check out the menu of the lcd they pretty much all have that function the reason is because the terminal drops you down to a different resolution and it causes the pixel shift on your lcd | 03:24 |

| bastidrazor | jhambo, from what i can see it uses gnome. not 100% on that though since i've never used it. it talks about rhythmbox which is native to gnome | 03:29 |

| dewdude | I am trying to build something that depends on udev, which is installed, but udevinfo does not exist, therefore the configure script won't continue. Is there any fix for this? | 03:39 |
| bastidrazor | Jeruvy, ascheel he doesn't need group and all having write permissions.. just read and execute | 03:39 |
| Strider | Sound recorder isn't effected by this problem though. | 03:39 |
| ascheel | bastidrazor, that's the problem. his / doesn't have execute. Just r/w | 03:39 |
| bastidrazor | ascheel, 755 will give it execute .. | 03:40 |
| ascheel | bastidrazor, he won't be able to use any command below / because it doesn't yet have execute. | 03:40 |

| Kaptein | Hello , my name is Marius and have been a user of Linux for the last 4 years , the two last on Ubuntu. Anyway i was wondering if theres any way i can contribute with code? I have acquired some C++ skills over the last year :) | 04:18 |
| mobi-sheep | mazda01: mplayer -dumpaudio $1 -dumpfile Converted.mp ---> would be better so it will show up in the same path as the file. | 04:18 |
| losher | gmcinnes: so with the monitor attached, it boots normally? Without the monitor, if fails, and when you attach the monitor, what do you see? | 04:18 |
| richardcavell | velcroshooz: Mate, I'd like to help you but I don't know much about it | 04:18 |

| mobi-sheep | !mint | richardcavell | 04:20 |
| ubottu | richardcavell: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information.

| bazhang | astronouth7303, remaster it? | 04:21 |
| losher | astronouth7303: easier to just remove unwanted packages after install | 04:22 |
| gjndxmalcolm | or use reconstuctor | 04:22 |
| bazhang | gjndxmalcolm, that is for fedora | 04:22 |

| losher | mobi-sheep: just curious, what kind of stuff do you remove? | 04:23 |
| richardcavell | mobi-sheep: I don't understand. The guy wants to code for an Ubuntu project. That's on topic. | 04:23 |
| mobi-sheep | richardcavell: That was a different person. :3 | 04:23 |
| epicreviews | I think I need something else called: application/smil decoder | 04:23 |
| bazhang | richardcavell, no it's not. Please don't argue the point | 04:23 |
| gjndxmalcolm | what the name of the ubuntu like distro with the enlighten wm | 04:23 |
| richardcavell | Kaptein: Choose a small project to start off with, one that uses C++, and join the appropriate websites | 04:23 |

| wrektjet | trying to get adobe air going.. can anyone assist | 04:27 |
| dewdude | the quality of the player generally depends on the quality of the input media | 04:28 |
| DOOM777 | epicreviews: vlc | 04:28 |
| epicreviews | well, high quality. WinAmp sounds much better than Windows Media Player with the same tracks (in windows) | 04:28 |

| legend2440 | rainwalker: DOOM777: is it safe to uninstall firefox 3.0 after installing firefox 3.5? | 04:30 |
| epicreviews | no that would be incorrect | 04:30 |
| rainwalker | mobi-sheep: yeah, me too (thinkpad w700) and some of the function key combos were recognized but some aren't :/ | 04:30 |

| legend2440 | rainwalker: ok thanks | 04:30 |
| losher | mobi-sheep: not sure I'd risk removing something I might need, if space isn't an issue. On the other hand, I understand the urge to tidy things up... | 04:31 |
| OttifantSir | legend2440: "safe" as it won't cripple your system. "unsafe" as it doesn't support all add-ons, and yours might be amongst them. | 04:31 |
| rainwalker | legend2440: it will use your existing profile so you don't lose bookmarks or plugins, but if you want to set it as default you have to do so in System > Preferences > Preferred Applicaitons | 04:31 |
| legend2440 | ok thank you | 04:31 |
| bazhang | legend2440, its called shiretoko | 04:32 |
| bastidrazor | legend2440, just change the command from firefox to firefox-3.5 | 04:32 |
| dewdude | epicreviews, i can't help you with that. I don't keep album art or browse a library or any of that. I use audacious because it works about the way the original Winamp did | 04:32 |

| bazhang | iamtechno, #ubuntu+1 for that | 04:33 |
| rainwalker | legend2440: don't change the command to firefox-3.5 | 04:33 |
| dewdude | we generally try to avoid copying anything Windows | 04:33 |
| epicreviews | and can I take pidgin out of the "envelope"? | 04:33 |
| rainwalker | legend2440: it installs "shiretoko", which is the version of firefox that hasn't gone through the accepted branding and stuff yet, so use that command instead | 04:33 |
| mobi-sheep | rainwalker: Did you try Google too though? | 04:33 |
| ctmjr | epicreviews, you need something like xbmc for that it is a media library | 04:33 |
| dewdude | double click on the envelope. | 04:33 |
| rainwalker | mobi-sheep: I have, I can't seem to find anything, searching the forums right now too | 04:34 |
| mobi-sheep | epicreviews: Try Banshee? | 04:34 |

| treetop | i got an old 300mhz pc what distro of linux would be good to run it like terminal | 04:47 |
| Cylon7 | & yeah i'm stuck with kubuntu intrepid, due to my addiction to linuxmce :) | 04:47 |
| edbian | kyppcgeek: How is that going to help? | 04:47 |
| * Cylon7 points to #LinuxMCE & www.linuxmce.org, which run on kubuntu :) | 04:47 | |
| primalmx | question on msi wind u100 - about to buy one, can someone clear up whether hibernate/stndby works or if there is a fix? | 04:47 |
| Cylon7 | thanks fellas, edbian :) | 04:47 |
| drpyro | kyppcgeek why downloading mint ? | 04:48 |
| edbian | Cylon7: NP! | 04:48 |
| rainwalker | helloimme: try searching the forums first, and if you can't find anything, check out nVidia latest Drivers - How to install - (180.xx - 185.xx) - Ubuntu Forums <http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=990978> | 04:48 |
| kyppcgeek | doesnt work | 04:48 |
| kyppcgeek | last I knew | 04:48 |
| edbian | kyppcgeek: What are you talking about? | 04:48 |
| iMatter | TwoToneSpirit, Ive already asked ones :), [ 6277.732066] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 | 04:48 |
| iMatter | [ 6277.788129] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3 | 04:48 |
| kyppcgeek | sorry should put names in front. sorry | 04:48 |
| edbian | kyppcgeek: no worries :) | 04:49 |
| iMatter | TwoToneSpirit, as you demonstrated when i ask vaguely again people pay more attention :) | 04:49 |
| bullgard | bastidrazor: Yes I did. | 04:49 |
| helloimme | rainwalker: would installing this graphics driver delete the one i've set up now? (i've spent days searching forums- i've only heard about this program called s2ram) | 04:49 |
| kyppcgeek | <helloimme> yes it will likely over write your xconf file | 04:50 |
| edbian | helloimme: Installed a package never deletes another package. If you install two packages that contain drivers (modules they're called in linux) then the system will choose one to use at boot time. You can manually switch them around yourself using modprobe :) | 04:50 |
| rainwalker | helloimme: you're supposed to uninstall the v180 driver first, then install the new ones. I personally only installed the v185 driver because I could, the v180 worked fine for me so I can't really warn you of any problems ahead of time. I would keep it as a last resort, though, because that thread is full of people talking about how much better the v185 driver is | 04:51 |
| losher | iMatter: Probably true more people pay attention, but I don't believe you get more *solutions*, it just takes longer for them to realise they can't help you.... | 04:51 |
| rainwalker | edbian: helloimme would be compiling a driver, not installing it through a package, and part of the instructions are to uninstall the packaged driver | 04:51 |
| edbian | helloimme: People suggest having only 1 module on a system for any piece of hardware so that you don't have to play guessing games with the kernel about which one the system is going to use. | 04:51 |
| edbian | rainwalker: helloimme: I also suggest removing the pre-packaged one. | 04:52 |
| iMatter | losher, faster they realise they can't help me faster i can see that and try another channel, less time on my part wasted | 04:52 |
| helloimme | rainwalker: edbian: i'm confused. hahah. how do i remove the prepackaged one? | 04:53 |
| edbian | rainwalker: Sorry if I butted in there :) | 04:53 |
| losher | iMatter: I suppose. It wastes more of *their* time though, doesn't it? | 04:53 |
| helloimme | this is my first time using irc, as well. | 04:53 |
| edbian | helloimme: Does your how-to say how? rainwalker says it's step 1. | 04:53 |
| rainwalker | edbian: no worries :) | 04:53 |
| edbian | helloimme: That doesn't matter. We'll help you :) | 04:53 |
| drpyro | helloimme so welcome :) | 04:53 |
| rainwalker | helloimme: I would suggest searching the forums for a solution using your current driver, but you can go ahead with compiling the new one if you're feeling adventurous | 04:53 |
| kitty_ | Looking for help getting X to run at a usable resolution/refresh rate (preferably 800x600+) | 04:53 |
| drpyro | edbian i'm a newbie too | 04:54 |
| helloimme | drpyro: edbian: rainwalker: thanks guys, you've been a lot of help | 04:54 |
| edbian | drpyro: Thanks for helping others and not just taking from the community! :) | 04:54 |
| kitty_ | whats your problem edbian ? | 04:54 |
| edbian | kitty_: Nothing I'm helping others :) | 04:55 |
| kitty_ | oh, wanna help me? | 04:55 |
| * kitty_ winks | 04:55 | |
| edbian | kitty_: YEs | 04:55 |
| edbian | kitty_: What's your problem? ;) | 04:55 |
| === iamcalledrob|awa is now known as iamcalledrob | ||
| kitty_ | ok, help me to get my X server to run at an acceptable refresh rate and screen resolution | 04:55 |
| edbian | kitty_: Quick question. How do you do the action notation? Like you did on kitty_ winks line. | 04:56 |
| kitty_ | '/me does something | 04:56 |
| losher | bastidrazor: #hardware says the answer to bullgard's question is a standard called pc99 | 04:56 |
| Cylon7 | edbian... just to verify, when apt-get update outputs "Ign" for an entry, that means it can't hit the server - right? | 04:56 |
| iMatter | losher, i guess so....well its a Lose win i guess.. | 04:56 |
| JECHO | hey all | 04:56 |
| edbian | Cylon7: I don't know. Ask around | 04:56 |
| helloimme | I love ubuntu- I have it on my desktop and i've tried using again.. but once you go ubuntu, you never go back. | 04:56 |
| Cylon7 | thanks edbian | 04:57 |
| edbian | Cylon7: "Ign" stands for ignore. I do know that. | 04:57 |
| helloimme | i've tried using windows again*** | 04:57 |
| edbian | kitty_: That's a hell of a request! | 04:57 |
| Cylon7 | hey anybody, does apt-get update output of "Ign" mean it can't see the server? | 04:57 |
| kitty_ | i can boot it up into a resolution not supported by my monitor | 04:57 |
| edbian | kitty_: Let's get started. Where are you right now? (screen size and refresh rate) What is your goal? | 04:57 |
| Cylon7 | yeah i figured that edbian :/ | 04:57 |
| bastidrazor | losher, bullgard i actually agree it was a good idea to color code them. makes it much easier for the not so savvy user to quickly plug in. | 04:57 |
| Tater | Hi all, here's the problem. If I don't have my nvidia drivers installed I get my desired resolution of 1280X1024 with crappy performance but if I install either the 1.80 drivers or the 1.73 (irc) with either envy or the enable restricted drivers tool I get good performance but only 800X600 any ideas on how to get the best of both? | 04:57 |
| kitty_ | and if i play with it enough it'll boot into "low graphics mode" | 04:57 |
| wdyrt | helloimme, well, i would never use windows again, but you will probably use more *nixs then just ubuntu | 04:57 |
| JECHO | cylon7: you mean sudo apt-get update? | 04:58 |
| helloimme | rainwalker: will installing the 185 drivers damage my hardware in any way? | 04:58 |
| sephy | It seems I have an issue with uploading pictures to Imageshack, Tinypic, photobucket. Some photos will upload but when I try others, my desktop will lockup and I get the "grey out" and it just sits there | 04:58 |
| rainwalker | Tater: have you tried the v185 drivers? | 04:58 |
| losher | iMatter: it's called cost-shifting & it only works because we volunteer support for free. If I were to get judgemental, I'd say it's a form of network abuse | 04:58 |
| Tater | rainwalker what are those and how do I get them | 04:58 |
| rainwalker | helloimme: no | 04:58 |
| rainwalker | helloimme: and that howto also says how to undo anything you do | 04:58 |
| Tater | nevermind I'm going to google it | 04:58 |
| helloimme | rainwalker: awesome, thanks. | 04:58 |
| kitty_ | edbian, well, i had it running at 640x480@60 till i restarted then it defaulted back to an unusable screen res | 04:59 |
| Cylon7 | JECHO yeah i was doing sudo... it completes the command, just says Ign for several repos | 04:59 |
| magnustudios | I don't know where else to post this: the Ubuntu Forums link on wubi-installer.org is broken. it's in the middle at the bottom | 04:59 |
| edbian | kitty_: So it probes incorrectly and selects something your monitor can't handle huh. What is the goal? | 04:59 |
| JECHO | cylon7 are they third party repos? if so you will need to get the authentication key to remove the error | 05:00 |
| nsadmin | kitty_: in debian you could dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and that's also worth a shot in ubuntu | 05:00 |
| edbian | kitty_: 1024 x 768 ?? | 05:00 |

| edbian | ? | 05:00 |
| Cylon7 | no JECHO it's just the default kubuntu install that i'm trying to update with the canned repos | 05:00 |
| kitty_ | to get it to work hopefully at 800x600 which is what it'll go for when you do the failsafe/lowgraphics mode | 05:00 |
| kitty_ | nsadmin, i've done it plenty it still goes to a refresh rate not usable by the monitor | 05:00 |
| JECHO | cylon7 ah, kubuntu 9.04? | 05:01 |
| dragonlotus | hey, during my ubuntu 8.10 install it says "an installation step failed... 'Install the lilo boot loader on a hard disk'" any idea why that would happen and how to fix it? | 05:01 |
| ctmjr | Cylon7, open software sources click the download from tab choose other then best let it do it's thing then choose the highlighted one see if that helps | 05:01 |

| rainwalker | helloimme: I don't know much about it, so I don't know what else to tell you, sorry | 05:17 |

| helloimme | rainwalker: oh.... so can i disable it now, and run the install again? | 05:17 |

| BigMike | so consequently I fixed most of my ubuntu problems thru research | 05:37 |
| ctmjr | kitty_, let me check but am pretty sure your card is no longer supported by ati in linux you might have to use the open-source driver which is fine | 05:37 |
| kitty_ | thats from lspci | 05:37 |
| kitty_ | ctmjr if i screw with it enough i'll eventually get the "ubuntu is running in low graphics mode" screen, which is 800x600, which is what i want | 05:38 |
| kyppcgeek | lspci tells what card but not what driver is installed | 05:38 |
| kitty_ | but anytime i restart after that it just reverts back to some unusable screen ress | 05:38 |

| rainwalker | rockho, find a repository with a newer version, probably on the pidgin site or launchpad | 06:05 |
| seeds | sudo dpkg | 06:06 |
| rainwalker | sagemode: what happens if you run nautilus from a terminal? | 06:06 |
| seeds | and do what rainwalker suggests | 06:06 |
| Dave312_ | rockho: You could try the version here, but if you can, find a repository. http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=4509 | 06:06 |

| Okay | Do you guys have the mac os x- like dock for ubuntu? | 06:07 |
| rainwalker | hm | 06:07 |
| sagemode | rainwalker: the libnautilus-brasero-extension.so | 06:07 |
| rainwalker | sagemode: ask how to get permissions corrected for that file, I don't know much about permissions so you'll have to post the specific error | 06:07 |
| Dave312_ | Okay: Try Awn Dock or the Docky theme in GNOME Do. | 06:08 |
| mobi-sheep | Okay: Definitely try Gnome-Do first. | 06:08 |
| Okay | mobi-sheep, why is that? | 06:08 |
| rainwalker | sagemode: alright, I'm guessing that means there's something weird going on with brasero. search the forums or google for that error first, then post back here if you don't find anything | 06:08 |
| Pyper | hi I've got an odd issue with my sound that I haven't been able to find a fix for. Sound will sometimes play fine, and then it will suddenly start 'beating', where it repeats a quarter second interval over and over. Happens on all sounds, not just specific programs. Any thoughts? | 06:08 |
| sagemode | rainwalker: ok tnx mate | 06:08 |
| Maximo | mobi-sheep: seeds: I tried both of them unsuccessful ..not working with audio problem I have (audio playback).... | 06:08 |
| seeds | Maximo what computer are you using? | 06:09 |
| sagemode | rainwalker: I chmod the .so but computer:/// will close the nautilus | 06:09 |
| rainwalker | Okay: the "docky" setup of gnome-do not only imitates the OS X dock very well in terms of looks, it does pretty well in terms of functionality while also being a great way to find stuff and run commands | 06:09 |
| seeds | cos i had this problem on my netbook running jaunty | 06:09 |
| Maximo | seeds: compaq desktop | 06:09 |
| seeds | k | 06:10 |
| seeds | remove all of pulseaudio | 06:10 |

| Maximo | seeds: could it any problem sound card? | 06:10 |
| moymoy | Okay: gnome-do uses less resources and is also a very good keyboard launcher | 06:10 |
| sagemode | rainwalker: and my desktop icon is gone including Places/Network cant close the nautilus | 06:10 |
| Okay | it looks so good | 06:10 |
| seeds | i think pulseaudio might be the problem | 06:10 |
| sagemode | rainwalker: and my desktop icon is gone including Places/Network close the nautilus | 06:10 |
| Okay | sudo apt-get install gnome-do? | 06:11 |
| rainwalker | sagemode: what happens if you run "killall nautilus" in a terminal? | 06:11 |
| rainwalker | Okay: yes | 06:11 |
| Maximo | seeds: remove all of pulseaudio and then what? | 06:11 |
| Maximo | thanks | 06:11 |
| Pyper | seeds: whats your problem? my sound is playing up as well | 06:11 |
| rainwalker | Okay: you may want to check that the newest version is in the repos | 06:11 |
| sagemode | rainwalker: no process | 06:12 |

| MrWizeGuy1983 | just curious, anybody know exactly why ubuntu hasn't automatically upgraded to firefox 3.5? | 06:12 |
| mobi-sheep | !ff35 | MrWizeGuy1983 | 06:12 |
| ubottu | MrWizeGuy1983: 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 | 06:12 |
| moymoy | Okay: there's a PPA you can use.. hold on, lemme find the link .. | 06:12 |
| rainwalker | MrWizeGuy1983: ubuntu only updates for security fixes, not feature releases like 3.5 | 06:12 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | after removing iced tea and installing sun java's plugin it works so much better than 3.0 | 06:12 |
| Maximo | seeds: just sudo rm pulseaudio | 06:12 |
| ctmjr | kitty_, try this see if it helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver | 06:12 |
| mobi-sheep | MrWizeGuy1983: Firefox 3.5 is default in Jaunty. | 06:12 |
| mobi-sheep | MrWizeGuy1983: Err.. Karmic* | 06:12 |
| seeds | sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio | 06:13 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | figured you meant karmic, i use jaunty lol | 06:13 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | i love firefox 3.5 | 06:13 |
| Maximo | seeds: okay | 06:13 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | icedtea7 didn't work at all though | 06:13 |
| moymoy | Okay: https://launchpad.net/~do-core/+archive/ppa | 06:13 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | had to remove it and use real java, which recently became available | 06:13 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | i wonder if that's why they didn't switch it? | 06:13 |
| seeds | sudo dpkg --purge pulseaudio | 06:13 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | so they can change the ubuntu restricted extras to include real java instead of iced tea? | 06:13 |
| mobi-sheep | MrWizeGuy1983: I like having two browsers. I have 30 tabs open on each. | 06:14 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | Anyone know why Xorg is taking up so much cpu? it's at 70% right now. | 06:14 |
| Okay | moymoy, just choose the first one on that list? | 06:14 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | Any idea why synaptic isnt updating the packages in its repos? | 06:14 |
| rainwalker | MrWizeGuy1983: could you explain what you did? I just noticed I have icedtea installed and would rather use sun's java | 06:14 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | mobi-sheep i have those two plus elinks and epiphany chromium and opera | 06:14 |
| sagemode | rainwalker: no process | 06:15 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | rainwalker you can do it two ways | 06:15 |
| Maximo | <seeds> sudo dpkg --purge pulseaudio <----was for me? | 06:15 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | There are a few things I need to get, mainly programming tools such as bluefish etc | 06:15 |
| mobi-sheep | MrWizeGuy1983: Okay okay. I give up. You win. | 06:15 |
| rainwalker | sagemode: I have no idea what to tell you, sorry | 06:15 |

| joejc | hello? | 06:17 |
| Pyper | hi I've got an odd issue with my sound that I haven't been able to find a fix for. Sound will sometimes play fine, and then it will suddenly start 'beating', where it repeats a quarter second interval over and over. Happens on all sounds, not just specific programs. Any thoughts? | 06:17 |
| joejc | anybody? | 06:18 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | joejc, be patient | 06:18 |
| joejc | ok | 06:18 |
| rainwalker | mobi-sheep: thank you :) | 06:18 |
| joejc | its just really annoying to here a beep everytime i press enter | 06:19 |
| Subdolus | Hi all! this is a kind of general question, but what would be the best method to stream video across wifi? atm I'm using Samba, but it's jittery only on the one wifi computer in the house | 06:19 |
| mobi-sheep | joejc: Hmmm. | 06:19 |
| mobi-sheep | joejc: sudo rmmod pcspkr --> Turn off annoying beeps. | 06:19 |
| seeds | Pyper on jaunty? | 06:19 |
| VanDyke | Subdolus, not enough bandwidth for that respective video? | 06:20 |
| Pyper | seeds: yup | 06:20 |
| VanDyke | try to just copy the file, see what kinda speed you get | 06:20 |
| joejc | thanks | 06:20 |
| Subdolus | VanDyke: excellent idea, but it works fine localy | 06:20 |
| VanDyke | Subdolus, what do you mean? | 06:21 |
| icarus-c | what kernel is shipped with 9.04 ? | 06:22 |
| Pyper | happens across all programs, including the startup sounds | 06:22 |
| richardcavell | icarus-c: 2.6.28 | 06:22 |
| icarus-c | i may give it a try then :D | 06:22 |
| epicreviews | I need an archiver that can open .7z STAT :D | 06:23 |
| linux_ | in gcc is there a delay(???) i can use to see if it is working also i need <header> | 06:23 |
| Dave312_ | henry_ left the room: Try p7zip. | 06:23 |
| bjorkintosh | how come mount_ufs doesn't work in ubuntu? | 06:23 |
| kitty_ | epicreviews, apt-get install p7zip | 06:23 |
| bjorkintosh | does linux not know of freebsd's file system at all? | 06:23 |
| Dave312_ | Opps, my bad. I meant epicreviews. | 06:23 |
| epicreviews | thx kitty_ | 06:26 |
| Pyper | hi I've got an odd issue with my sound that I haven't been able to find a fix for. Sound will sometimes play fine, and then it will suddenly start 'beating', where it repeats a quarter second interval over and over. Happens on all sounds, not just specific programs. On Jaunty. Any thoughts? | 06:27 |
| Dave312_ | Pyper: Post your question in the forums. | 06:27 |
| Pyper | Did and watched it get buried several times | 06:28 |
| Pyper | Thanks anyway. | 06:28 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | Ok, any idea why synaptic (under jaunty) isnt updating its package list? | 06:30 |
| === Pasbar_Team is now known as J4SM4N | ||
| Dave312_ | Pyper: Does your normal sound work? Like for music or videos? | 06:31 |
| Okay | I got gnome-do now. How do i properly configure it? | 06:31 |
| Okay | I installed it via add/remove | 06:32 |
| Pyper | all sound works sometimes, for video, music, system etc. Then either from startup or some random point in time no sound will work and all will produce the 'beating' | 06:32 |
| scunizi_ | Okay: it will typically learn as you use it.. also right mouse click the icon up by the clock and add or remove plugins | 06:32 |
| Omar87 | Hi | 06:32 |
| Omar87 | What is the Lost+Found folder for? | 06:33 |
| mrpinky | hey :D is there some built-in/automatic tool that will let me have an encrypted home directory? i am using 8.04 LTS | 06:33 |
| Pyper | additionally, all sound will start beating if any application uses pause | 06:33 |
| OttifantSir | Pyper: I have a similar problem, but it only happens if I overload the machine, meaning I start video or music or something media-related when on too much CPU-load already. Is that what happens to you, or can you still use the computer? Mine totally freezes when that happens. | 06:33 |
| Dave312_ | Pyper: Could you run lspci and tell me what your sound card is? | 06:33 |
| Okay | Scunizi, I loaded it, but there is no dock bar, just options such as plugins,keyboard,appearance | 06:33 |
| Pyper | well, all ive tried on, namely vlc amaroc and dragon | 06:33 |
| scunizi_ | Omar87: it's where the system puts stuff that's out of wack after a disk check (every 30 boots or so) | 06:34 |
| Dave312_ | Pyper: Wait, you're using Kubuntu? | 06:34 |
| Omar87 | scunizi: Oh ok. Thanks. | 06:34 |
| scunizi_ | Okay: I havent used teh dock bar feature.. but "winkey + space" will call it up | 06:35 |
| Pyper | yup kubuntu | 06:35 |
| Pyper | can use everything else fine | 06:35 |
| sivel27 | helloall | 06:35 |
| Pyper | and new to linuxx | 06:35 |
| Pyper | *linux | 06:35 |
| scunizi_ | Okay: will call up the "Do" that is.. not the dock bar | 06:35 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | I've got a ATI Technologies Inc R430 [Radeon X800 XL] video card, and there seems to not be a driver for it, although there was a driver for 8.10 - I just upgraded, but my Xorg is going insane and has been taking up usually about 70% cpu if I try to do anything that has anything to do with graphics | 06:35 |
| === sleepy_cat is now known as c_nick | ||
| ShazbotMcNasty | such as watch a video on youtube... | 06:35 |
| Dave312_ | Pyper: Oh. So in GNOME (Ubuntu), everything is fine? The problem only occurs in KDE? | 06:35 |
| Okay | Scunizi, what is this winkey that everyone says | 06:35 |
| joejc | how do i get my system beep back? | 06:36 |
| sivel27 | quick question about sound..... all of the sudden, i have absolutely no sound, and i am very new to linux, so im not sure how to diagnose/fix it. any takers? | 06:36 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | well at least, with the restricted device manager, there's no driver for it... | 06:36 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | windows key | 06:36 |
| scunizi_ | ShazbotMcNasty: it may be one of the cards that is no longer supported by ATI with thier driver in the latest Xorg | 06:36 |
| Pyper | I dont know, Ive only had kubuntu | 06:36 |
| scunizi_ | Okay: winkey? | 06:36 |
| indus | ShazbotMcNasty: how old is this card? | 06:37 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | I'm not sure, I didn't build the computer, my friend did and he gave it to me. | 06:37 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | Okay: its the windows key | 06:37 |
| Okay | Scunizi, I got it | 06:37 |
| dewdude | everything i believe prior to the x900 or so for ATI cards is now legacy | 06:37 |
| indus | ShazbotMcNasty: yes support for thiscard has been removed from the latest driver, you have to use hardy | 06:37 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | it worked fine with intrepid | 06:38 |
| Pyper | ok think this is the card: Multimedia audio controller: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB400 AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 80) | 06:38 |
| dewdude | yeah...older xorg | 06:38 |
| OttifantSir | sivel27: Not a real good tip, but have you tried logging out and back in? Have you tried double-clicking the speaker-icon and open Volume Control and check that nothing's been muted? | 06:38 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | I'll go back to intrepid then | 06:38 |
| Okay | so gnome-do isn't really a dock? | 06:38 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | :< | 06:38 |
| indus | ShazbotMcNasty: stick to 8.10 then until new drivers support it | 06:38 |
| dewdude | i have the same problem | 06:38 |
| epicreviews | how do you change icons? | 06:38 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | Does anyone know how long that may take? | 06:38 |
| dewdude | although i do have direct-rendering for 3d...at least I think I do | 06:38 |
| indus | ShazbotMcNasty: no one knows | 06:38 |
| sivel27 | ive rebooted, and im not muted, all setting in that regard are unchanged | 06:38 |
| Omar87 | Hi | 06:38 |
| scunizi_ | ShazbotMcNasty: It's up to ATI | 06:38 |
| dewdude | my GPU is based off the x300 | 06:38 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | Will somebody give me a hand with synaptic here? Its 1:40 AM here, and I gotta get up at 6-630 ish | 06:39 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | damn | 06:39 |
| === arthur_ is now known as thearthur | ||
| libtech | GodfatherofEir1: go to sleep | 06:39 |
| indus | scunizi_: its not upto only ATI , drivers are open sourced now so the community can also do it | 06:39 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | libtech, I need this thing fixed | 06:39 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | Before i can go | 06:39 |
| libtech | GodfatherofEir1: jk, just ask | 06:39 |
| scunizi_ | indus: I wasn't aware of that.. | 06:39 |
| OttifantSir | sivel27: Go to System -> Preferences -> Sound and see what kind of sound-system you use (PulseAudio, ALSA, OSS) | 06:40 |
| indus | GodfatherofEir1: whats teh problem | 06:40 |
| Maximo | seeds: how do I add those packages to the repositories? | 06:40 |
| gkffjcs_ | hi all how do you re-enable x11 session zapping on ctrl + alt + backspace.? | 06:40 |
| Omar87 | I'm using a toshiba laptop. My External speakers (a Creative sound system) and my Internal speakers(the built-in ones) both work at the same time. How do I stop that? | 06:40 |
| indus | scunizi:both drivers exist | 06:40 |
| epicreviews | anyone? how do I change icons? | 06:40 |
| OttifantSir | sivel27: Try different ones and play the test-sounds and see if anything changes. | 06:40 |
| indus | !ati | 06:40 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 06:40 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | libtech indus, basically, synaptic isnt updating to the latest repos for jaunty (which I know has bluefish in there), but none of them are showing up | 06:40 |
| indus | epicreviews: go to system>preferences>appearance>customise | 06:40 |
| rww | !dontzap | gkffjcs_ | 06:41 |
| ubottu | gkffjcs_: 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. | 06:41 |
| sivel27 | nope, nothing | 06:41 |
| indus | GodfatherofEir1: switch to main server | 06:41 |
| Pyper | I'm removing pulseaudio to see if that changes anything | 06:41 |
| Dave312_ | Pyper: Well, since I had the same issue in Fedora 11 w/ KDE, I'm assuming it is a Phonon issue. I recommend installing the GNOME desktop. If it still doesn't work then, issue a bug report. Use sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop. You could try XFCE as well (I recommend it over GNOME) with the command sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop. The XFCE download is a lot smaller than GNOME. | 06:41 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | indus, how would I go about doing that (I also dont remember switching from it either) | 06:41 |
| OttifantSir | sivel27: And you've tried them all? | 06:41 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | this is a fresh install | 06:41 |
| Maximo | http://pastie.org/541001 <----can any1 tell me how do I add this packages to my repository? | 06:41 |
| Maximo | thanks | 06:41 |
| indus | GodfatherofEir1: hmm what is the error you get ? | 06:42 |
| sivel27 | trying them right now | 06:42 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | scratch that, it would seem the install defaulted to a diff server | 06:42 |
| jbbarnes | Can anyone tell me how to add X & icewm (or fluxbox) to a text-mode Ubuntu installation? I have added xinit and icewm through apt-get. | 06:42 |
| indus | Maximo: copy paste those lines into synaptic | 06:42 |
| indus | Maximo: under repositories | 06:43 |
| rebel | after 27 hours stright i still cant get ubuntu 9.04 on my desktop asus p5q.. | 06:43 |
| Omar87 | I'm using a toshiba laptop. My External speakers (a Creative sound system) and my Internal speakers(the built-in ones) both work at the same time. How do I stop that? | 06:43 |
| rebel | can anyone help? | 06:43 |
| Maximo | indus: okay | 06:43 |
| rebel | I get it installed but during reboot my kb/mouse don't work.. although I tried ps2/usb | 06:43 |
| OttifantSir | Maximo: Open Synaptic -> Settings -> Archive -> Third-party Software -> Add. Then copy/paste each line on its own. Don't forget to import the key for the repos. | 06:43 |
| sivel27 | wow...nothing | 06:43 |
| Okay | do you need to have visual effects enabled to fully enjoy gnome-do? | 06:43 |
| Dave312_ | Pyper: Removing Pulse Audio will ruin your system. Phonon relies on Pulse, so it will only make things worse. | 06:43 |
| sivel27 | i wonder if the soundcard totally fryed. | 06:43 |
| indus | !repositories | 06:43 |
| ubottu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 06:43 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | well, indus, it would seem that switching to main server didnt do me much good, same package list | 06:44 |
| indus | GodfatherofEir1: then it has not been uploaded,you have misleading information | 06:45 |
| OttifantSir | sivel27: You can test that with a liveCD. If it had sound the first time you used it, it will have sound this time around too, as it's default settings. | 06:45 |
| indus | GodfatherofEir1: have you enabled the universe repository? | 06:45 |
| sivel27 | okay, ill give it a shot | 06:45 |
| GodfatherofEir1 | indus, i had it installed on here before. on 9.04 | 06:45 |
| Okay | sivel27, yup. visual effects do need to be enabled to fully enjoy it | 06:45 |
| indus | GodfatherofEir1: bluefish is from universe i believe | 06:45 |
| Maximo | OttifantSir: sorry was away for a while....but let me try it that will let you know results, thanks | 06:45 |
| indus | Maximo: you need to also add the key to the repos,which i will tell you how to | 06:46 |

It will open an FTP-connection. Hit the link in the window, it will open as text-only. Copy the part that says ------ START PUBLIC KEY BLOCK------- all the way to -------- END PUBLIC KEY BLOCK ----------. Then copy/paste it into gEdit, or nano or vim. Save it to your computer, then go t | 06:58 |

I have Kubuntu, Jaunty, have now deleted pulseaudio (or tried to, it still lists as an output device) and have an ATI IXP rev 80 with ALC250 (ATI IXP AC97) soundcard | 07:00 |
| tabby77 | would it make memtest86 crash with register errors and stuff too? | 07:00 |
| cy21 | i have a Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GME/GLE GEM 20090326 2009Q1 RC2 x86/MMX/SSE2 ... and compiz does not start .. i crashed 6 hours ago | 07:00 |

| icarus-c | tabby77: try to push the fan with you finger :D | 07:03 |
| OttifantSir | cy21: You've lost all video-drivers? In that case, sudo apt-get instal xserver-xorg-video-all will install all video-modules again. | 07:03 |
| xhaxha | hi there | 07:03 |
| tabby77 | icarus-c: would it cause register errors in memtest86 ? | 07:03 |
| icarus-c | tabby77: not sure | 07:03 |
| icarus-c | tabby77: not likely though | 07:03 |
| tabby77 | i can move the fan with my fingers | 07:03 |
| icarus-c | tabby77: did it run by itself after pushing | 07:03 |
| cy21 | OttifantSir, thanks!!! testing now!!! sure hope this works!!! | 07:03 |
| tabby77 | no, it just clicks and tries to turn | 07:04 |

| indus | Maximo: i want you to paste the error you get | 07:07 |

| OttifantSir | cy21: You are trying to install a debian source code package. I have no info on that, apart from having watched a video of how it's done from the Ubuntu developers. You'll probably need build-essentials and other things. Let me see if I can find that video and get some info for you. | 07:10 |

| mralexandro | am i on undernet or freenode now? | 07:41 |
| OttifantSir | cy21: You have to download all the files from the Launcpad page: "orig" and "diff".tar.gz and the .dsc. Now, remember, I have not done this, I only take this from the Ubuntu developer-video, so it might crash your system completely: Go to the directory where you stored the files (preferably just these files). Run "sudo pbuilder build <name.of.package.dsc>" AGAIN: I have not done this, so you might corrupt completely your system. Do at your own risk. | 07:41 |

| SolarisBoy_ | ouch | 07:52 |
| grawity | rameshwor: There's no "apt-get uninstall", there's only "apt-get remove". | 07:52 |
| rameshwor | grawity: i mean uninstall and remove ? are they both valid ?? | 07:52 |
| cy21 | OttifantSir, http://paste.ubuntu.com/214269/ | 07:52 |
| SolarisBoy_ | --purge | 07:52 |
| grawity | rameshwor: Just type "apt-get" and see what are the valid commands. | 07:52 |
| whatvn | is it possible to install sata driver after complete installing ubuntu? | 07:53 |

| rebel | grawity: its for my onboard sata controller | 07:53 |
| grawity | rameshwor: apt-get remove | 07:53 |
| yurikoles | just removed metapackages | 07:53 |
| grawity | yurikoles: now apt-get autoremove, and it should remove the rest. | 07:54 |
| Maximo | indus: thanks alot all my stations are back with nice sound (but did not try skype yet)...good start | 07:54 |
| whatvn | grawity, but Ubuntu didn't see my sata drives | 07:54 |
| OttifantSir | cy21: So, the .dsc-pbuilder command worked, I take it, but now Tux Racer doesn't see the driver? | 07:54 |
| yurikoles | no | 07:54 |
| cy21 | OttifantSir, yes.. and it's not the only one who is not seing the driver | 07:54 |

| ShazbotMcNasty | I tried to install an ATI driver, that was listed for my video card, but it didn't work - here's the pastebin of the outcome when I run the .run from terminal - what went wrong? http://pastebin.com/m6c297512 | 07:55 |
| OttifantSir | You installed the .deb from /var/cache/pbuilder/result/ right? | 07:55 |

| yurikoles | so any other ideas how to remove kde and xfce4? | 07:56 |
| boozler | How do i launch a FILE from the terminal using its' particular default application? IE 'open foo.pdf' in os x or 'start foo.pdf' in dos | 07:56 |
| grawity | yurikoles: run aptitude and remove stuff. | 07:56 |
| OttifantSir | Maximo: Doing what I can, however small the favour. | 07:56 |
| Maximo | you guys doing a good job lol | 07:57 |
| cy21 | OttifantSir, back | 07:57 |
| grawity | boozler: maybe xdg-open? | 07:57 |
| william56 | anyone know what the optimal display manager to use is for minimal memory/cpu usage? | 07:57 |
| yurikoles | its just removes matapackages! | 07:57 |

| boozler | grawity: thanks that works | 07:58 |

| cy21 | what's the command? | 07:58 |
| thomson | is there suppose to be no sound when using the livecd? | 07:59 |
| yurikoles | why aptitude dont upgrades linux-image-generic-2.6.28-13 to 14? | 07:59 |
| OttifantSir | belco: you know what the files were named, or the directory they were in was named? You could then try to open a terminal and use the "find" and "locate" commands to see if you find them, then use (DANGEROUS AHEAD!) rm /directory/of/files/* (IF YOU WANT TO DELETE *ALL* FILES IN DIRECTORY) or rm /directory/of/files/filenames. | 07:59 |
| belco | there is no trash can i can delete with command prompt? | 07:59 |
| yurikoles | linux-image-generic installed | 07:59 |
| gralco | hi I have an ati radeon hd 4890 and I recently installed the proprietary driver and gnome stopped working | 07:59 |

| cy21 | grawity, http://paste.ubuntu.com/214278/ here it is | 08:00 |
| thomson | i have no sound using the livecd, is that normal? | 08:00 |
| grawity | cy21: and if you try compiz --replace? | 08:00 |
| OttifantSir | cy21: You disappeared before you answered my question: You did install the .deb from /var/cache/pbuilder/result/ right? | 08:00 |

| william56 | if i remove the xfwm, will my login screen change? i started with xubuntu, then installed fluxbox and don't plan to use xfce any more | 08:02 |
| SolarisBoy_ | apt should delete dependencies by default no? | 08:02 |
| powertool08 | I want to have an wifi LAN and a wired LAN, and be able to see the wifi traffic from the wired LAN, but not be able to see the wired LAN traffic from the wifi LAN. Is this possible? If so, which router is behind which router? | 08:02 |

| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 08:02 |

| william56 | yurikoles: i'm in the process of removing xfce4 by having done a search in synaptic for 'xfce' and removing them all | 08:02 |

| thomson | SolarisBoy: how do i go about doing that? | 08:07 |
| thomson | SolarisBoy: sorry for my newbness | 08:07 |
| OttifantSir | cy21: Then do "locate xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.6.3-0ubuntu9.4.deb" in a terminal and see what you get. Of course, if you've built this .deb and installed it already, I don't know what else to do. As I said, just a newbie myself. | 08:07 |
| SolarisBoy_ | what type of sound card do you have? | 08:07 |
| thomson | ah | 08:08 |

| === viking is now known as Guest33100 | ||
| indus | uknow folders are not mounted, the drives containing the folders/files etc are mounted | 08:20 |
| Maximo | indus: which works nicely with ubuntu 9:04 | 08:20 |
| indus | Maximo: what plugin | 08:20 |
| rebel | hmmm I just installed ubuntu 8.04 but I noticed that in gparted only one sda device is showing up when I have 6 others plugged in. They showed up in 8.10 but that didnt work for me and neither did 9.04.. so im wondering how I can get more drivers for my onboard sata controller? | 08:21 |
| SolarisBoy_ | is it that you have a mount point but the content isn't there? | 08:21 |
| Maximo | indus: some stations in order to listened asking for plugin | 08:21 |
| gratefuldead | yeah about the mnt drive | 08:21 |
| gratefuldead | how cani figure out if its dev/hd1 or 2 | 08:21 |

| SolarisBoy_ | /var/log/messages | 08:22 |
| sagemode | I discover a bug that I cant google... its about nautilus not able to open computer:/// and network:/// and remove desktop icon... I think its also point to x-session | 08:22 |
| Wazzzaaa | Anyone knows a good latex editor for linux? | 08:22 |
| SolarisBoy_ | its better to grep whatever ur drive names are sd or hd | 08:22 |
| rebel | yeah they would be sd* | 08:23 |
| indus | Guest33100: yes open a terminal then type type grub | 08:23 |
| Maximo | indus: just gonna look in the synaptic Package Manager for one | 08:23 |
| SolarisBoy_ | yep | 08:23 |
| sagemode | My solution I reinstaller my ubuntu and hunting for answers about the bug... | 08:23 |
| indus | Maximo: just install gstreamer extra plugins | 08:23 |
| Vinnnnn | Hey guys | 08:24 |
| gratefuldead | whats a good networkmaager for ubuntu | 08:24 |
| Maximo | indus: through a way terminal, correct? | 08:24 |
| gratefuldead | network manager | 08:24 |
| mikc | Wazzzaaa: texmaker, kile | 08:24 |
| SolarisBoy_ | network-manager =) | 08:24 |
| indus | Maximo: no use add/remove search for gstreamer | 08:24 |
| mikc | Wazzzaaa: vim | 08:24 |
| Vinnnnn | nm-applet not working for you gratefuldead | 08:24 |
| Vinnnnn | ? | 08:25 |
| Maximo | indus: okay | 08:25 |
| gratefuldead | hha yeah | 08:25 |
| gratefuldead | not with wireless | 08:25 |
| Vinnnnn | lol, its temperamental, sometimes I can't stand it | 08:25 |
| SolarisBoy_ | yea nm is a headache sometimes.. | 08:25 |
| Wazzzaaa | im not satisfied with texmaker | 08:25 |
| andrew_46 | gratefuldead: An alternative is wicd | 08:25 |
| gratefuldead | do u know of a better one i can download | 08:26 |
| gratefuldead | ohh yeah | 08:26 |
| SolarisBoy_ | it was reorganizing my resolv.conf and putting my main dns last... and making pages take secs upon secs to load =( | 08:26 |
| gratefuldead | where do i put packages to use the apt-get command right | 08:26 |
| SolarisBoy_ | put? | 08:26 |
| Wazzzaaa | and I want a full IDE, or is it possible to config VIm such that I can enter a command or click a button to build a pdf or ps | 08:26 |
| gratefuldead | i dont know much about linux kinda new but every time i try to use the command it can ever find the packege | 08:27 |
| gratefuldead | cant ever* | 08:27 |
| SolarisBoy_ | hmm | 08:27 |
| gratefuldead | any solution | 08:27 |
| Vinnnnn | the apt-get connects to the internet and downloads the package gratefuldead | 08:27 |
| SolarisBoy_ | sources.lst? | 08:27 |
| gratefuldead | ohh i see | 08:27 |
| Vinnnnn | so maybe sudo apt-get wicd | 08:27 |
| indus | !who | 08:27 |
| ubottu | 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 :) | 08:27 |
| Vinnnnn | sudo apt-get install wicd I mean | 08:28 |
| gratefuldead | dont have the internet right know thats what i been up on the last while tryin to fix | 08:28 |
| mikc | Wazzzaaa: I use vim and Makefiles to write Latex. You may add a key binding which will launch "make", make pdf, make view or whatever you want | 08:28 |
| Vinnnnn | Ohh ok, if you download the package gratefuldead, you can run sudo dpkg <filename> to install it like that | 08:28 |
| SolarisBoy_ | yea thats what i was getting at | 08:28 |
| SolarisBoy_ | if u have a package u usually use dpkg to install it | 08:29 |
| SolarisBoy_ | u use apt-get to get it from repo's or the cd-rom | 08:29 |
| Out_Cold | could someone please tell me what the heck i did to my MBR?? even more so, how to fix it?? http://pastebin.com/m6205f5c2 | 08:29 |
| Vinnnnn | gratefuldead: that's what you'll have to do if you don't have interwebs on your linux | 08:29 |
| SolarisBoy_ | hence you would need a package for whatever you are installing... | 08:30 |
| SolarisBoy_ | already | 08:30 |
| OttifantSir | rebel: Which motherboard model is it? | 08:31 |
| indus | Out_Cold: what is the problem | 08:31 |
| Wazzzaaa | mikc: thnx, I will look into Makefiles | 08:31 |

| Out_Cold | indus, i can boot off of sdb but my normal boot is sda1 and sda5 is the /... sda is an encrypted lvm... | 08:32 |
| SolarisBoy_ | rebel: sorry i didn't see .. did the drives show in log any? | 08:32 |
| dibblego | SolarisBoy_, what if they don't have a terminal running? | 08:32 |
| rebel | SolarisBoy_: It's just running updates right now, I have to wait till they are done but then I will check :) | 08:33 |
| SolarisBoy_ | good question | 08:33 |
| indus | Out_Cold: can u paste sudo fdisk -l | 08:33 |
| SolarisBoy_ | rebel: nice | 08:33 |
| Out_Cold | I thought that sda1 was not encrypted because it's the /boot but I can't mount it because it's Luks_format or something similar | 08:33 |
| indus | Out_Cold: my brain cant process all the info from the first paste | 08:33 |
| SolarisBoy_ | dibblego: i think wall only works on tty's .. so ur correct in that regards | 08:33 |

| indus | hi | 08:34 |
| OttifantSir | rebel: I found something here, may be what you need: http://drivers-download-driver.com/driver-asus-p5ql-pro-marvell-6121-sata-driver-12057/ (I found it by searching Google with this: Asus p5q ICH10R linux driver sata) | 08:34 |
| linuxguy2009 | I am learning about the fstab and how to change partition usage in it. Im wondering if I make a mistake in it or accidentally delete it does it corrupt the whole system or does it generate a default one again later? | 08:34 |
| Boohbah | adambanana: no, nobody is here | 08:34 |
| Out_Cold | indus, http://pastebin.com/m49961438 | 08:34 |
| adambanana | ohhhh k | 08:34 |
| indus | Out_Cold: probably a repair grub might work | 08:35 |
| rebel | OttifantSir: im not sure if thats the same driver or not.. it seems its for the mobo ASUS P5QL PRO | 08:35 |
| Out_Cold | indus from a live cd? or alt? | 08:35 |
| indus | Out_Cold: live | 08:35 |
| Out_Cold | indus, i also have the secondary OS | 08:35 |
| OttifantSir | rebel: Well, you got more info on the motherboard? | 08:36 |
| indus | Out_Cold: you can boot into windows now is it? | 08:36 |
| Out_Cold | no both nix | 08:36 |
| Out_Cold | both buntu's | 08:36 |
| rebel | OttifantSir: It's just an Asus P5Q, nothing else =]. Also, those drivers you had listed are for windows | 08:36 |
| indus | Out_Cold: which one cant you boot into? | 08:36 |
| Out_Cold | i can't boot in to 9.10 which is on sda and my primary host | 08:36 |
| SolarisBoy_ | rebel: which version ubuntu you running? | 08:37 |
| Out_Cold | the usb which is sdb is 8.10 i think and bt4 | 08:37 |
| indus | Out_Cold: what do u mean cant boot into? it doesnt show in grub ? | 08:37 |
| Out_Cold | it gives me an error 21 when the usb is detached... and doesn't show up in grub when the usb is attached | 08:37 |
| rebel | SolarisBoy_: I tried running 9.04 first but when I booted up I couldn't get any of my keyboards or mouses to work to login so then I tried 8.10 in which case it found all of my drivers and loaded fine from cd, but when I went to install to hard disk it said failed to create swap partition every single time, so now im on 8.04 | 08:38 |
| Out_Cold | i figure it has to be the mbr but i have no idea what it was before.. | 08:38 |
| SolarisBoy_ | rebel: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1001571 | 08:38 |
| indus | Out_Cold: ok boot with live cd and repair grub | 08:38 |
| thomson | every time i try to switch over to linux, feel like i'm missing a heap of stuff | 08:38 |
| thomson | lol | 08:38 |
| Out_Cold | i went to install the bt4 on the usb and must have missed a step about the MBR and now i'm screwed lol | 08:38 |
| Out_Cold | can i use an old version? | 08:39 |
| Out_Cold | like 8.04 | 08:39 |
| thomson | i feel like i have to start again | 08:39 |
| indus | Out_Cold: sure,any version | 08:39 |
| VanDyke | anyone here run skype on 9.04 x64 ? | 08:39 |
| indus | VanDyke: i do | 08:39 |
| SolarisBoy_ | so the actual raid controller is on the motherboard... so you have some bios function that leads you to your raid array? | 08:39 |
| thomson | for example, what's the best bittorrent client, ftp client, mail client, msn client, music player etc. etc | 08:39 |
| SolarisBoy_ | raid array config rather | 08:39 |
| thomson | with windows, i know all this | 08:39 |
| Out_Cold | indus, cool, will try.. it's an option in 'fix broken sys'?? | 08:39 |
| indus | Out_Cold: fix what? | 08:40 |
| SolarisBoy_ | thomson: many choices.. people probably choose diff ones... | 08:40 |
| Out_Cold | where do i repair the grub from?? | 08:40 |
| rebel | SolarisBoy_: Yes, but I don't want to use my controller to create the raid array.. I wanted to do a software raid instead of hardware. but I can't even do that due to the fact that 8.04 dont list my devices | 08:40 |
| VanDyke | indus, my mic doesn't work on skype | 08:40 |
| indus | Out_Cold: just boot the live cd then come to terminal | 08:40 |
| VanDyke | are you running pulse audio? | 08:40 |
| SolarisBoy_ | i see i see... | 08:40 |
| iMatter | Hello, i am having problems with jaunty USB when i plug in my USB HDD it doesn't mount | 08:40 |
| SolarisBoy_ | hmm | 08:40 |
| indus | VanDyke: yes go to skype >options>audio devices> set audio input to plughw0 | 08:41 |
| thomson | and then comes the issue of installing things, i know how the file system in windows is setup and where everything goes. however, i have no idea with linux | 08:41 |
| rebel | SolarisBoy_: I think it's because its not loading a proper driver for that controller to begin with | 08:41 |
| Out_Cold | indus, and then? | 08:41 |
| thomson | so, i have to start all over again | 08:41 |
| SolarisBoy_ | wait.. how big is the drive thats on ur system? | 08:41 |
| SolarisBoy_ | that the ubuntu reads... | 08:41 |
| indus | Out_Cold:have you booted live cd? | 08:41 |
| rebel | SolarisBoy_: Which one.. I have 6 on one controller and one on another acting as my master | 08:41 |
| Out_Cold | you want me to join here after a boot? | 08:41 |
| rebel | SolarisBoy_: 6X1.5TB 1X320GB | 08:41 |
| VanDyke | indus, but then any call fails, can't open it | 08:41 |
| SolarisBoy_ | right but when u do df -h and see the one attached.. | 08:41 |
| SolarisBoy_ | what does df say? | 08:41 |
| indus | Out_Cold: no we can go to a pub if u like :) | 08:41 |
| indus | Out_Cold: yeah come back | 08:42 |
| Out_Cold | well i thought i was missing something... i'll brb | 08:42 |
| jgould | odd question, in the /bin dir, what are the file premissions? | 08:42 |
| mikc | iMatter: does it works with oterh systems? | 08:42 |
| rebel | SolarisBoy_: it's still installing updates 4 minutes left but then I can tell you :) | 08:42 |
| iMatter | mikc, yes windows PC over there ----> | 08:42 |
| iMatter | mikc, Dmesg Output: [ 6419.352339] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3 | 08:42 |

| SolarisBoy_ | wow thats a lot of hard drive =) | 08:43 |
| mikc | iMatter: heuum... | 08:43 |
| rebel | SolarisBoy_: Yeah, its just going to be used as a simple Raid 5 file server.. Reason why i want to use software raid is because then I can expand my raid 5 array with ease :) | 08:44 |
| iMatter | mikc, Thats what he said | 08:44 |
| SolarisBoy_ | i see | 08:44 |
| thomson | *feels like buying a macbook pro* | 08:44 |
| OttifantSir | rebel: This forum thread seems to have the answer. Maybe, maybe not: http://fixunix.com/hardware/508382-centos-4-asus-p5q.html | 08:44 |
| iMatter | thomson, urges him to do so | 08:44 |
| mikc | iMatter: does it work from other ports? is it a USB-powered HDD? | 08:44 |
| Dayofswords | 6x1.5tb, dang thats 9tb total | 08:44 |
| SolarisBoy_ | i've used software raid on FreeBSD and RHEL but not on ubuntu =) | 08:44 |
| iMatter | mikc, Nope same error from every port, and yes USB powered | 08:45 |
| thomson | iMatter: the issue, $$$ expensive | 08:45 |
| iMatter | mikc, laptop is plugged up | 08:45 |
| thomson | iMatter: $1,700+ here in australia | 08:45 |

| thomson | iMatter: shipping still free? | 08:46 |
| iMatter | thomson, i highly doubt it...i think it'd be better to have a friend from america ship it to you | 08:47 |
| Out_Cold | indus, so i'm in a Live 8.10 remaster.. | 08:47 |
| indus | Out_Cold: open terminal and type grub | 08:47 |
| SolarisBoy_ | i think u run apt-build world after u change the build.list configuration... | 08:47 |
| Out_Cold | already there | 08:47 |
| thomson | iMatter: i've always wanted to use OS X, only because it uses NeXT as its core | 08:48 |
| thomson | :-D | 08:48 |
| indus | Out_Cold: type find /boot/grub/stage1 | 08:48 |
| iMatter | thomson, OSX ftw (some people will vary to differ...you'll be pummeled in some channels if you say one word about OSX) | 08:49 |
| thomson | lol | 08:49 |
| Out_Cold | indus, i did this already and tried to switch it around... | 08:49 |
| Out_Cold | i will try again.. | 08:49 |
| indus | Out_Cold: which linux cant you boot? is there any ext 2 partitions ? | 08:50 |
| Out_Cold | yes... sda1 should be ext2 and i think the rest are ext3 | 08:50 |
| indus | Out_Cold: is sda1 which wont boot? | 08:51 |
| indus | Out_Cold: err.... i mean where is the linux which wont boot | 08:51 |
| Out_Cold | yes | 08:51 |
| Out_Cold | yes | 08:51 |
| indus | Out_Cold: hmm thats the problem then, and why is it ext2? | 08:51 |
| Out_Cold | it's /boot | 08:51 |
| indus | Out_Cold: so what | 08:51 |
| zxd_ | hi, anyone know if PPP in linux can use kerberos authentication or PAM | 08:52 |
| Out_Cold | i think it was a default of the 9.04 guided encrypted lvm | 08:52 |
| indus | Out_Cold: hmm this can be difficult, havent seen anyone use ext2 before | 08:52 |
| indus | Out_Cold: oh is it? | 08:52 |
| Out_Cold | fdisk -l | 08:53 |
| Out_Cold | oops | 08:53 |
| indus | Out_Cold: :) | 08:53 |
| Out_Cold | no.. 83 is ext3 right? | 08:53 |
| indus | Out_Cold: try the grub repair options ,did u do all that? root(hdx,y ) etc | 08:53 |
| bmkool | Out_Cold: hi | 08:53 |
| SolarisBoy_ | doesn't ppp have its own authentication method? | 08:53 |
| m3onh0x84 | yes | 08:53 |
| indus | Out_Cold: i think | 08:53 |
| ikonia | Out_Cold: ext2 and ext3 should be treated the same | 08:53 |
| indus | Out_Cold: lunch time,maybe iconia can help | 08:54 |
| Out_Cold | i figured as much except for a journal or something.. but still | 08:54 |
| Out_Cold | thanks indus | 08:54 |
| Out_Cold | ikonia, i figured they were the same.. | 08:54 |
| SolarisBoy_ | hmm | 08:55 |
| Out_Cold | i'm pretty sure i know exactly what happened... it's just i dunno what the default grub settings are.. | 08:55 |

| rjmoore | does anyone know how to add a pgp key??? | 08:56 |
| SolarisBoy_ | apt-key | 08:57 |
| SolarisBoy_ | a repo key? if so use apt-key | 08:57 |
| rjmoore | i d-loaded the key to my desktop and it looks like this..............."xxxxxxxx.tar.gz.sig" | 08:57 |
| SolarisBoy_ | hmm it looks to be in a archive | 08:58 |
| SolarisBoy_ | you could probably run file xxxxxxxx.tar.gz.sig and confirm | 08:58 |
| rjmoore | thats what i thought but i dont know how to use that file type | 08:58 |
| SolarisBoy_ | tar xvfz should do it i believe | 08:59 |
| SolarisBoy_ | tar xvfz xxxxxxxx.tar.gz.sig | 08:59 |
| grawity | Um, no. | 09:00 |
| Saruji | hi everybody, quick question, adding a rule in firestarter does not allow my to change my service for port 80 to ssh, defaults to http, how can I fix this? Thank you | 09:00 |
| rjmoore | well file roller doesnt know what it is | 09:00 |
| grawity | rjmoore: .sig files are not keys, they're signatures, and you need to use gpg --verify on them. | 09:00 |
| SolarisBoy_ | file <file> | 09:00 |
| rjmoore | humm.. little more info please ?? | 09:00 |
| SolarisBoy_ | and confirm what type of archive it is | 09:01 |
| Saruji | Everytime I type in port 80 it defaults to http or 8080 to alt http, any ideas? thank you | 09:01 |
| grawity | .sig is not an archibve at all -_- | 09:01 |
| SolarisBoy_ | probably need to remove one service and create a custom service Saruji | 09:01 |
| m3onh0x84 | what's function of ubiquity ? | 09:01 |
| SolarisBoy_ | because both are using known ports | 09:01 |
| SolarisBoy_ | if thats possible in firestarter =) | 09:02 |
| Saruji | SolarisBoy_ custom service for firestarter got it, will research thank you | 09:02 |
| SolarisBoy_ | try it | 09:02 |
| Saruji | SolarisBoy_ oh you dont know if it is, lol | 09:02 |
| Saruji | SolarisBoy_ ok | 09:03 |
| kostyasss | Здравсвуйте | 09:03 |
| SolarisBoy_ | because port 80 and 8080 do default to http and alt http | 09:03 |

| SolarisBoy_ | a gpg key usually ends in .gpg | 09:05 |
| rjmoore | truecrypt-6.2a-ubuntu-x86.tar.gz.sig: encryption failed: public key not found | 09:05 |
| kaini | Out_Cold, its the same | 09:05 |
| grawity | Out_Cold: grub is the same in all OSes. | 09:05 |
| grawity | SolarisBoy_: but this is a _signature_ | 09:05 |
| SolarisBoy_ | Out_Cold: grub is grub red hat / debian .. | 09:05 |
| Out_Cold | fair enough... thanks.. | 09:05 |
| grawity | rjmoore: you need two dashes before --verify | 09:05 |
| SolarisBoy_ | what did file on that file say it was? | 09:05 |
| SolarisBoy_ | the command 'file' | 09:06 |
| rjmoore | gpg --verify truecrypt-6.2a-ubuntu-x86.tar.gz.sig | 09:06 |

| rjmoore | its sitting on my desktop | 09:07 |
| SolarisBoy_ | so it appears you need the *.gpg key | 09:07 |
| grawity | rjmoore: the .sig file is a signature, not the key | 09:07 |

| Guest29750 | Chousuke: thank you, ill try to find it | 09:17 |
| c_nick | hi is there any community based for statistics? | 09:18 |
| rjmoore | well im stumped then .... | 09:18 |
| grawity | rjmoore: i386 and i686 are mostly the same, and x86 means the same too. | 09:18 |
| c_nick | hi is there any community for* statistics? | 09:18 |
| rjmoore | any sujestions | 09:18 |
| SolarisBoy_ | thats correct | 09:18 |
| Chousuke | Guest29750: though chances are the blackberry client will depend on other things as well | 09:18 |
| rjmoore | do i need to do something else witht he .sig | 09:18 |
| Chousuke | Guest29750: you might need to find out what they are and use apt-get to install them as well. | 09:19 |
| respecting | please i have a big problem i want to write opengl programs(with C) but i don't find a GUI C editor Any suggestion? | 09:19 |
| grawity | rjmoore: no, the .sig is not needed anymore | 09:19 |
| rjmoore | trash?? | 09:19 |
| Cybertinus | Where can I find the URL for Synaptic on https://launchpad.net/rocrail/+download ? | 09:19 |
| rjmoore | how about the .asc that is stored on my desktop | 09:19 |
| grawity | that can be deleted too, just keep .tar.gz | 09:20 |
| rjmoore | i see it in seahorse | 09:20 |

| SolarisBoy_ | not sure | 09:23 |
| kwork | SolarisBoy_, wanted something for diffmon, but that could work if its run before diffmon | 09:23 |

| Slart | mobi-sheep: did you get that newline thing figured out? | 09:33 |
| SolarisBoy_ | is your friends signal encrypted as well? | 09:33 |
| jaimoten | Yep, but I don't remember wha'ts the encription security mode | 09:34 |
| mobi-sheep | Slart: I think so. --> "newline=$(echo -e "\n ");" and add the $newline right in the message between internal / external. | 09:34 |

| myxo | slart i used azureus back in the day when i used windows, before i discovered utorrent | 09:38 |
| OttifantSir | william56: Not sure if you can actually install it when /boot is out of space, and it is not a supported package, but it works fine for me: Go to www.getdeb.net and choose Categories -> System Tools and Ubuntu Tweak. (If you run something other than Jaunty, you need to choose the version for your system). Download and install. Then open it and go to Programs -> Package Cleaner -> and do Clean Package, Clean Cache and Clean Kernel. WARNING, WARNING!! | 09:38 |
| Slart | myxo: mm, same here... you can still run utorrent using wine if you want | 09:38 |
| jaimoten | SolarisBoy: maybe this is a hint: everytime the 'enter password' dlg is presented, if I check 'see password' (rather than to see '*' chars), it doesn't appear there my pwd. Instead, there is a looon string of random chars... something like encripted stuff | 09:38 |
| SolarisBoy_ | hmm | 09:39 |
| SolarisBoy_ | but if its entering the wrong password the AP usually would mention that | 09:39 |
| jaimoten | uh-hu | 09:39 |
| geremy | hi i just move to xfce how can i add quickly icon to panel? right mouse button didnt work | 09:40 |
| OttifantSir | Jaimoten: That string is the actual password to get on. Your user-password is just to retrieve that key. | 09:40 |
| myxo | slart i'd be a bit wary running a torrenting software in wine... | 09:40 |
| myxo | slart idk, i'd be afraid of corruption or file mismanagement, idk, maybe i shouldnt be? | 09:40 |
| jaimoten | Ottifant: ok, maybe so; actually I know near to nothing about wireless things | 09:40 |
| schummelpilz | my gedit latex plugin doesnt recognize all my tex files and therefore doesnt provide me with the latex functionality. any ideas why? | 09:41 |
| jaimoten | :p | 09:41 |
| SolarisBoy_ | you are talking about the password prompt for wireless and not where you created the passphrase right? | 09:41 |
| Slart | myxo: I kind of agree.. I wouldn't want to run wine as a background app either.. I think I'll stick to native stuff | 09:41 |
| jaimoten | SolarisBoy: yeah; it should be the same thing than I entered im router's settings | 09:41 |

| florianbg | helo everybody! I am looking for a program to use google calendar on my PC. I mean I would like to be able to add events from this program and it will sync it to the online calendar. And most important I would like to get notifications of appointsments on the screen. Is there any program/plugin you could recommend? | 10:12 |
| Bullaro | schmiedc: Thanks.... Ill try it :P | 10:12 |
| indus | ethanol: check permissions for /var/www | 10:12 |
| indus | ethanol: should be owned by apache | 10:12 |
| ethanol | indus: would it hurt security if I just did chown me:me /var/www ? | 10:12 |
| ethanol | indus: it was owned by root | 10:12 |
| indus | ethanol: never do it ! | 10:12 |
| ethanol | oh | 10:12 |
| OttifantSir | Bullaro: That has nothing to do with the naming. Intel-version is 32-bit and AMD-version is 64-bit. So you need to know if you've got a 32-bit or 64-bit processor | 10:13 |

| sahil_ | and a hug | 10:15 |
| indus | sahil_: yes i will | 10:15 |

| indus | ethanol: iam not sure if thats how it works | 10:16 |

| ethanol | on a side note, is it possible to set a user config file much like .vimrc, determining some default parameters to be used with `ls` ? | 10:17 |
| indus | sahil_: wait 1 min | 10:17 |
| lit | indus: hello | 10:17 |
| clank | ethanol: maybe set an alias in .bashrc? | 10:17 |
| clank | or whatever shell you use | 10:17 |
| ethanol | ah crap, gotte shop for groceries for lunch at work | 10:17 |
| indus | lit: yes? | 10:17 |
| Out_Cold | ethanol, you can make aliases or something like that.. so that default of ls is ls -la or something | 10:17 |
| ethanol | cya guys later | 10:17 |
| indus | ethanol: bye | 10:17 |

| optimus | minimec: solution? | 10:35 |
| william56 | i don't know what you are referring to | 10:35 |

| lit | ubottu: ok ,sorry ,i'll do it | 10:35 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 10:35 |

| william56 | "just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root" | 10:40 |
| OttifantSir | c_korn: This might be of help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery | 10:40 |
| indus | william56: you are not using nvidia drivers and that is why you have poor resolution | 10:40 |
| indus | c_korn: whats inside config btw | 10:40 |
| super_ | farallon wifi skyline not working anabody has an idea ? | 10:40 |
| william56 | yes.. nvidia-xconfig won't set my xorg.conf to use the nvidia driver? | 10:41 |
| william56 | never mind, it did | 10:41 |
| indus | william56: how do u know it did | 10:41 |
| william56 | i just looked in xorg.conf, and it has the line Driver "nvidia" | 10:41 |

| Slart | bala_: purge = "remove completely" | 11:15 |
| Bullaro | jrib: could be | 11:15 |
| indus | super_: no dont oops | 11:15 |
| WNz | Hey all | 11:15 |
| alien | jrib yes but less improve | 11:15 |
| jrib | Bullaro: there's only *.04 and *.10 and 6.06 | 11:15 |
| indus | super_: just a screenshot | 11:15 |
| bala_ | slart let me see wait | 11:15 |
| jrib | alien: what? | 11:15 |
| alien | to many bugs are not fixed yet | 11:15 |
| super_ | indus: screenshot of what ? µ | 11:15 |
| WNz | Is there a way to run your own script that executes after a kernel upgrade? | 11:15 |
| indus | super_: that network icon where it says wireless is enabled | 11:16 |
| jrib | alien: i kind of doubt that's the case. maybe it happens to have a particular set of bugs that you care about more | 11:16 |
| OttifantSir | bala_: I would do this in Synaptic: search for linux. You will find several named linux-image-"something". The ones with the lowest numbers are the oldest. Mark them for removal. WARNING! If you remove the wrong ones, you might not get back after a reboot. | 11:16 |
| indus | super_: in network wireless,try adding a new connection | 11:16 |
| alien | yes | 11:16 |
| Cryptorchild | err | 11:17 |
| WNz | How can I run my own script that gets executed when the kernel is upgraded? | 11:17 |
| bala_ | ottifantsir ok that file name called linux-image only na? else need to remove something with? | 11:17 |
| Cryptorchild | this is Jaunty not Hardy, sorry... | 11:17 |
| tree | howdy all. need some help please | 11:17 |
| Slart | just ask, tree | 11:17 |
| tree | I installed a ati driver last night. shut down and this morning cannot boot up. How do i remove the driver from a command line? | 11:18 |
| alien | but can you tell me the difference between 8.04.2 and 8.10 ? | 11:18 |
| jrib | alien: it has more recent software. Check the release notes for 8.10 | 11:19 |
| WNz | tree: go into recovery mode and reset the display to the default driver | 11:19 |
| tree | How do i reset it? | 11:19 |
| OttifantSir | bala_: My current and only kernel is linux-image-2.6.28.13-generic. You can also delete linux-restricted-modules with the same number as the linux-image-kernel you're removing. Also true for linux-headers. The numbers MUST match! And be sure it's the old kernel, not the new one. | 11:20 |
| rohan | .q | 11:20 |
| WNz | tree: Have you been in recovery mode before? | 11:20 |
| tree | i know how to get to recovery but not how to reset the driver? | 11:20 |
| alien | i need a stable ubuntu good for video, tor, evolution with hotmail, | 11:20 |
| bala_ | ottifantsir successfully linux-image-2.6.28.13-generic and linux-restricted-modules | 11:21 |
| WNz | tree: It has a few options and one of them has to do with display (I don't remember what it is specifically) | 11:21 |
| jrib | alien: either use the latest LTS if you do not want to upgrade (8.04) or use the latest stable (9.04) | 11:21 |
| tree | i have tried that but no luck | 11:21 |
| WNz | tree: What happens when you boot into ubuntu normally? | 11:22 |

| Bullaro | Will the MS Remote Desktop Connection work with an Ubuntu system? | 11:22 |
| ravindu | hi why my firefox in ubuntu 9.04 get more than 350mb of RAM and most of the proccessr power? | 11:22 |
| alien | ok | 11:22 |
| OttifantSir | bala_: Sorry for confusing you. You shall NOT remove those. I said earlier, to check the numbers, and remove those with lower numbers, such as 2.6.28.11. NOT 2.6.28.13. That's okay for now though, just install it again. And remove the older kernel-packages. NOT the .13 ones. | 11:23 |
| tree | i get the os choices menu select ubuntu brings up ubuntu progress bar and then a black screen | 11:23 |
| alien | what is the latest LTS ? | 11:23 |
| jrib | !lts | alien | 11:23 |
| ubottu | alien: 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) | 11:23 |
| eykosioux | hi, i'm trying to configure two different routers for my pc, one for each interface | 11:23 |
| alien | ok so it mean 8.04.2 right ? | 11:24 |
| bala_ | ottifantsir i deleted this one only 2.6.28.11 | 11:24 |
| WNz | tree: try going into the virtual terminal (ctrl+alt+F1) | 11:24 |
| jrib | alien: yes... | 11:24 |
| alien | ok thx | 11:24 |
| Bullaro | Will the MS Remote Desktop Connection work with an Ubuntu System? | 11:24 |
| eykosioux | how do i specify a route(r) for each device, without setting a default gateway? | 11:24 |
| OttifantSir | bala_: OK. Did you also do the restricted and headers-packages? | 11:24 |
| Slart | !repeat | Bullaro | 11:24 |
| ubottu | Bullaro: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 11:24 |

| neo8848 | when executing : nautlius & | 11:25 |
| neo8848 | as root? | 11:26 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: what exactly are you trying to do? are you trying to connect to Ubuntu from windows? | 11:26 |
| neo8848 | this is for jaunty, i used to be able to do it fine back in Hardy | 11:26 |
| WNz | tree: I would suggest installing envy-ng and then select the recommended ati driver | 11:26 |
| super_ | indus: i completyed SID and wep key and i cannot click apply | 11:26 |
| OttifantSir | bala_: Then your old kernel should be gone. You mean, how do you check if you HAVE the current one, or do you mean how do you enable JUST the current one in GRUB? | 11:26 |
| bala_ | ottifantsir yeah | 11:27 |
| Bullaro | Moymoy: Yeah.. my linux system will be running as server without monitor/keyboard/mouse... need to get access to it from somewhere | 11:27 |
| bala_ | uname -r | 11:27 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: i see... there are a few tools you can use, but i guess you prefer controlling the whole desktop | 11:28 |
| tree | can i unistall the ati driver and reset the default one from there? | 11:28 |
| bala_ | ottifantsir shown uname -r .13 kernel | 11:28 |
| Ivis | who have working flash plugin on google chorme? | 11:28 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: Ubuntu uses vinagre, which uses VNC.. so you should download a VNC client for windows | 11:28 |
| Bullaro | moymoy: Okay.. ive read that If ubuntu has a gnome login session you can use remote desktop tho | 11:29 |
| WNz | tree: it would overwrite it | 11:30 |
| OttifantSir | bala_: Run this: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and scroll down to the end of the file. Delete everything concerning the old kernel (if it isn't already) and save. You're good to go. | 11:30 |
| tree | okay then cheers for now | 11:30 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: if you're not logged into GNOME, then you can't use any remote desktops, rendering VNC useless | 11:30 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: but if you're going to run a desktop environment (like gnome), you can use VNC to control it.. http://www.tightvnc.com/download.html | 11:31 |
| Ivis | this channel sucks a lot | 11:31 |
| Ivis | bye | 11:31 |
| Bullaro | moymoy: Thanks! Gonna try that :) | 11:31 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: also GNOME allows remote logins | 11:31 |
| DOHC | 91.188.128.5 | 11:31 |
| Bullaro | moymoy: But does the ubuntu system needs to be logged in to use that VNC? | 11:32 |
| === Sakarias_ is now known as Sakarias | ||
| Slart | OttifantSir, bala_: that will only last until the next kernel update.. it's better to change the "number of kernels to show" setting in the same file and then run "sudo update-grub" | 11:32 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: yes.. you can't use VNC without being logged in.. | 11:32 |
| Bullaro | allright | 11:32 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: a more practical solution is to use SSH instead of a remote desktop | 11:32 |
| Cryptorchild | minimec, I think my graphic adapter does not supported by the driver | 11:33 |
| Bullaro | SSH? | 11:33 |
| Bullaro | !SSH | 11:33 |
| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. Putty is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 11:33 |
| OttifantSir | Slart: So uncommenting howmany=all and set it to howmany=1? | 11:33 |
| Cryptorchild | i have successfuly remove the fglrx* and xorg-driver-fglrx | 11:33 |
| bala_ | slart n ottifantsir see this link and tel me plz http://paste.ubuntu.com/214551/ | 11:33 |
| maniheer | WinSCP is easier to use than putty | 11:33 |
| Bullaro | I have used putty before | 11:33 |
| Cryptorchild | and run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 11:33 |
| Slart | OttifantSir: I don't think you need to uncomment it.. just change it to 1 should do it | 11:33 |
| Bullaro | but that will mean ill have to do everything command wise? | 11:33 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: not neccessarily.. | 11:34 |
| Slart | OttifantSir: but you have to run "sudo update-grub" too.. or it won't do anything | 11:34 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: SSH has an option to Forward X windows | 11:34 |
| Cryptorchild | is that all i need to do? | 11:34 |
| minimec | Cryptorchild: You are on Hardy Heron right? Choose the right fglrx driver. Hardy supports all ATI Cards. | 11:34 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: yup, use ssh with your server | 11:34 |
| Cryptorchild | minimec, sorry Im not on Hardy Heron, it's Jaunty :D | 11:35 |
| Slart | bala_: line 109, change "# howmany=all" to "# howmany=1", save the file then run "sudo update-grub" in a terminal | 11:35 |
| Cryptorchild | wrong read the Ubuntu version | 11:35 |
| Cryptorchild | 9.04 not 8.04 | 11:35 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: ssh also has an option for forward X windows, meaning you'll be able to launch programs and have the window on your desktop (kind of like Remote Desktop) | 11:35 |
| minimec | Cryptorchild: OK. It is possible then, that your card is not supporte4d anymore. | 11:35 |
| maniheer | how good was intrepid? | 11:35 |
| maniheer | never tried it | 11:35 |
| Cryptorchild | too bad | 11:35 |

| nsadmin | maveas: then you need to talk to the admin of that router | 11:44 |
| alfaromeo | eplawless_, so where would i start? | 11:44 |
| Slart | bala_: you just needed to run it manually this one time since you changed the settings in the file | 11:44 |

| OttifantSir | bala_: No, with the mods we introduced, you don't have to do the grub/menu.lst, just wait until you see that all is working well with the new kernel, then delete the old one. | 11:45 |

| OttifantSir | alfaromeo: Sorry, but I don't remember how I got it back myself once. It was a few years back I did the same. Sorry I couldn't be of more help | 12:02 |
| ux | it's about 3 months of work | 12:02 |

| alfaromeo | OttifantSir, nope man, i did sth and i ll find how to fix :) | 12:03 |
| ux | nsadmin, by mistake | 12:03 |
| Cryptorchild | minimec, do I have to just install it? | 12:03 |
| schmiedc | cya | 12:03 |
| nsadmin | ux: given that you knew how important your data is, you must have made a backup copy... restore from it | 12:03 |
| minimec | Cryptorchild: Jep. That should do. | 12:04 |
| Bullaro | I installed ubuntu 9.04 with the alternate cd... but now it wont start up in a GUI? | 12:04 |
| alfaromeo | guys i cant see file menu on nautilus i changed the theme back and restart X nothing happened. can u help? | 12:04 |
| nsadmin | other than that, and other than expensive forensic hd recovery companies, that data is -gone- if you formatted it | 12:04 |
| ux | nsadmin, these data are not so important, but it would be to restore | 12:05 |
| === hamza is now known as dr_hamzamusa | ||
| mu99ins | Seeya later, folks | 12:05 |
| nsadmin | so it wasn't important enough to make a backup? and you didn't make a backup? | 12:05 |
| alfaromeo | ux use some recovery programmes and look what u can restore. | 12:06 |
| Cryptorchild | minimec, done. package installed | 12:06 |
| Cryptorchild | let see if it's works | 12:06 |
| minimec | Cryptorchild: OK. I had much better image quality with this driver and better HDMI support. MAke you own experiences... | 12:07 |

| skylight | helo | 12:08 |
| skylight | whats the best app for 720p mkv playback | 12:08 |
| minimec | Cryptorchild: No. Xorg should handle your card automaticly. You shouldn't have any fglrx entry in your xorg.conf if you did a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg before. | 12:08 |
| skylight | not fluently on vlc :( | 12:08 |

| lstarnes | killerstorm2: gutsy is no longer supported, but you could try http://old-releases.ubuntu.com | 12:13 |
| Cryptorchild | whoa..my HD movies plays smooth | 12:13 |
| OttifantSir | skylight: VLC plays a 1080p mkv file perfectly with me. You also need to have the hardware and free resources to play it without a hitch. But you could always try xine-ui or Mplayer. | 12:13 |
| killerstorm2 | thanks | 12:13 |
| alfaromeo | Bullaro, u mean u install ubuntu on windows, or just ubuntu? | 12:13 |

| OttifantSir | alfaromeo: Glad to be of service. Soon I'll be a Master Of Google ;-) | 12:13 |
| Hustlers_23 | in jaunty | 12:13 |
| Hustlers_23 | says :Screen isn't composited. Please run compiz (-fusion) or another compositing manager. | 12:14 |
| Hustlers_23 | any1 know how to fix? i have compiz running.. | 12:14 |
| Cryptorchild | can't miss | 12:14 |
| alfaromeo | OttifantSir, master of googlubuntu :P | 12:14 |
| OttifantSir | Hustlers_23: Do you have Compiz installed and enabled? | 12:14 |
| Hustlers_23 | as far as im concerned yes | 12:15 |
| Hustlers_23 | although im new to linux(2day old) lol, but yes its in system/preference | 12:15 |
| alfaromeo | minimec i have ati 9100 igp and ati dont support it now :p it's supported 2006 can u help me about this :P | 12:15 |
| Hustlers_23 | command to see what graphics card i have = lsipc?? cant remember lol | 12:16 |
| Cryptorchild | minimec, what you using for movie player? | 12:16 |
| Bullaro | I installed ubuntu 9.04 with the alternate cd... but now it wont start up in a GUI? is it supposed to be like this? - Anyone? | 12:16 |
| minimec | alfaromeo: Well it is basiclly the same. There is the official opensource driver in jaunty. That one is working but not the best one. And then there is a ubuntu ppa repository with new development drivers. These one are better. | 12:17 |
| OttifantSir | Hustlers_23: In Preferences, go into Appearance -> Visual Effects and see if they are set to None, or one of the others. The command you're looking for is lshw -C video | 12:17 |
| grandrew | hi all! How can I set up an rdate server so my thin client boxes could run 'rdate' to set their clock? what is the program/service name or where can I find it? | 12:17 |
| HippyEwan | Is there a quick command to find out what other PCs are on your network? | 12:17 |
| Hustlers_23 | my card = VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8600 GT (rev a1) | 12:17 |
| Hustlers_23 | OttifantSir, : if i set it to anything other than none, this is the error | 12:18 |
| Hustlers_23 | Desktop effects could not be enabled | 12:18 |
| Hustlers_23 | so OttifantSir i cant really enable it :( something wrong | 12:19 |
| bigpresh | grandrew: I'd recommend looking up NTP | 12:19 |
| bigpresh | grandrew: rdate is somewhat antiquated, and mostly replaced by NTP | 12:19 |
| alfaromeo | minimec, so i have to buy new driver ? | 12:19 |
| grandrew | bigpresh: the problem is that I cannot sync using ntp. | 12:19 |
| grawity | Why not? | 12:20 |
| bigpresh | grandrew: Out of interest, why? | 12:20 |
| minimec | alfaromeo: You don't have to buy anything... Wait a moment. | 12:20 |
| alfaromeo | minimec, i ll... | 12:20 |
| Hustlers_23 | Desktop effects could not be enabled error i get wen trying to change from None to anything else in appearance | 12:20 |
| grandrew | bigpresh: the thin client flash is too expensive to include the ntp syncing suite; rdate comes in a busybox bundle and already installed on the other hand | 12:21 |
| Hustlers_23 | any1 know how to fix? i got awn manager and compiz installed | 12:21 |
| bigpresh | grandrew: If you have your heart set on using rdate, I believe the server you're querying simply needs to offer up the 'time' service via inetd, but I would very much recommend NTP instead | 12:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Hustlers_23: tell the channel your video card, and have you installed any propriatry drivers for it? | 12:21 |
| bigpresh | grandrew: Sounds like a relatively fair reason, then :) | 12:21 |
| minimec | alfaromeo: install that package, if you are on a Ubuntu i386 system http://ppa.launchpad.net/tormodvolden/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video-ati/xserver-xorg-video-ati_6.12.1-0ubuntu1~hardy_i386.deb | 12:21 |
| bigpresh | grandrew: although I imagine a cut-down version of ntpdate would do the job just as well, if not bette | 12:21 |
| Hustlers_23 | Dr_Willis, it seems to be installed already | 12:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Hustlers_23: and tell the channel the kind of card? | 12:22 |
| Hustlers_23 | "This driver is activated and in use" | 12:22 |
| Hustlers_23 | how do i tell it? sorry new to ubuntu lol | 12:22 |
| MadsRH | Hi. Does anyone know where the gnome panel files are? I want to create a script that can add a new application (if it's posible). | 12:22 |
| OttifantSir | Hustlers_23: The safest way I know how to solve it, is to download and install Ubuntu Tweak from www.getdeb.net in Categories -> System Tools. Then open it, go to Desktop -> Windows and tell me what it says there first, then we'll see if I remember how I solved the same problem | 12:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Hustlers_23: what driver does it say its using? | 12:23 |
| alfaromeo | minimec, ok. | 12:23 |
| grawity | MadsRH: The menubar is probably in ~/.config/menus | 12:23 |
| Hustlers_23 | nvidia accelerated graphic driver version 180, recommended | 12:23 |
| MadsRH | grawity -> thanks, I'll take a look | 12:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Hustlers_23: the command lspci | grep VGA | 12:24 |
| alfaromeo | minimec, but i use jaunty. | 12:24 |
| Dr_Willis | will also tell us some info about your dard. | 12:24 |
| grandrew | bigpresh: thanks, xinetd does the job :-) | 12:24 |
| bigpresh | grandrew: You're welcome :) | 12:24 |
| Hustlers_23 | Dr_Willis: Desktop effects could not be enabled | 12:24 |
| Dr_Willis | for example - my 8800gtsxxx --> lspci putput -> 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G80 [GeForce 8800 GTS] (rev a2) | 12:24 |
| Hustlers_23 | oops ssorry | 12:24 |
| Hustlers_23 | Dr_Willis: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8600 GT (rev a1) | 12:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Hustlers_23: so you did reboot after the nvidia drivers got installed? | 12:25 |
| minimec | alfaromeo: oups ... wait | 12:25 |
| Hustlers_23 | hhmm i thought they were already installed | 12:25 |
| alfaromeo | minimec, i have ati driver on reposit | 12:25 |
| Hustlers_23 | like wen i opened hardware it was already on green | 12:25 |
| alfaromeo | deposite. | 12:25 |
| Hustlers_23 | should i reboot, try, then come back to chat here if it fails | 12:26 |
| alfaromeo | minimec, i am just saying it doesnt support 3d. | 12:26 |
| Hustlers_23 | OttifantSir, i | 12:26 |
| minimec | alfaromeo: Try that one http://ppa.launchpad.net/tormodvolden/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video-ati/xserver-xorg-video-radeon_6.12.99+git20090629.bb04b450-0ubuntu0tormod_i386.deb | 12:26 |
| silidan1 | how can i upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10? | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Hustlers_23: the nvidia drivers are NOT instaleld on a newly installed system.. that tool does pop up a dialog on first logini recall and asks to install them. you then need to reboot. | 12:26 |
| Hustlers_23 | OttifantSir, i will dl that if this way doesnt work | 12:26 |
| Hustlers_23 | ok brb guys | 12:26 |
| minimec | alfaromeo: THat one should be ok including 3d. | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Hustlers_23: unless you are using some ubuntu variant | 12:27 |
| alfaromeo | oh ok | 12:27 |
| Cryptorchild | minimec, what media player do you use to watch HD movies? | 12:27 |
| minimec | Cryptorchild: mplayer, totem-xine. I don't use totem-gstreamer. | 12:28 |
| Cryptorchild | oh | 12:28 |
| Cryptorchild | should try that | 12:28 |
| richardcavell | Poll: What is your favourite package? | 12:28 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: I had the exact same problem Hustlers_23 had, but on an Intel 945GM card. I had to change something in Metacity I think. I did it through Ubuntu Tweak, then re-enabled Visual Effects in Appearance. It might also involve removing Compiz, then re-installing it. I don't really remember right now. | 12:29 |
| alfaromeo | minimec, i installed, so what ll happen now? | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: a lot of the intel cards are 'blacklisted' so compiz wont try to run on them. | 12:29 |
| moymoy | how do i set keys in ssh? not working for me.. | 12:29 |
| minimec | alfaromeo: Logout your session. Then xorg will restart with the new driver. | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: that card he had should not bee blacklisted. it should work fine. | 12:30 |
| Bullaro | I installed ubuntu 9.04 with the alternate cd... but now it wont start up in a GUI? is it supposed to be like this? - Anyone? | 12:30 |
| alfaromeo | minimec, if it is crashes what ll i do? | 12:30 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: yes, the alternate CD doesn't come with a gui, you'll have to install it yourself | 12:30 |
| alfaromeo | minimec, i am saying that i did it a lot; trying to install driver and X down :) | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Bullaro: theres teh altertive cd.. and the 'server' cd.. you are Sure you used the alternetic isntaller cd? | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Err... the Alternative Installer cd dosent have a GUI installer.. but it does install a normal desktop with a GUI. | 12:31 |
| Emery | i'm trying to copy something to my other H/D but i get permission denied any ideas .. it is mounted | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Emery: and the Filesystem on the other hard drive is? | 12:31 |
| Emery | ext | 12:32 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: Compiz has worked on this card from 7.04 or 7.10. Just not as good as it does now. And I have had the same problem several times. I think I solved the problem this time by enabling MetaCity's compositing, de-activate it, then enable Visual Effects. I think that was how I did it this time. And it's working like a charm. Simply too little power to do the REALLY cool stuff with Compiz:-p | 12:32 |
| alfaromeo | try sudo lol | 12:32 |
| quietFrank | hi all ... I am having a problem where the desktop cube and the workspaces widget are not playing together nicely if I click on the workspaces at the bottom of the screen I just get a desktop without the top and bottom bars | 12:32 |
| minimec | alfaromeo: It shouldn't. If it does, maybe you could use a live Disk to come back to that channel again. You would habve to dpkg -r xserver-xorg-video-radeon and then install it again with apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeon. | 12:32 |
| moymoy | anyone care to explain how to set up rsa public/private keys to me? | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Emery: if you mean ext2/3 then your user will need proper permissuin/ownership of the directories he is copying stuff to - on the other hard drive. | 12:33 |
| Emery | yes | 12:33 |
| grawity | moymoy: for ssh? | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Emery: moving external hard drives btween linux systems.. can be annoying. | 12:33 |
| OttifantSir | quietFrank: maybe you get an answer here, but ask your question in #compiz too | 12:33 |
| Emery | and i don't know how | 12:33 |
| moymoy | grawity: yeah, for ssh | 12:33 |
| Emery | hence the question | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Emery: chown a directory to be owned by the user you want to access it. | 12:33 |
| Bullaro | Dr_Willis: Yes I am sure i used the alternate CD | 12:33 |
| Emery | Dr_Willis, how do i chown | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Bullaro: it should install the normal desktop then. unless its having a hard time with the video card. | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Emery: 'sudo chown user.user /path/to/dir' | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Emery: reading up on linux file permissions is also a very good idea to understand whats going on. | 12:34 |
| OttifantSir | moymoy: Here's a documentation-page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys | 12:35 |
| Bullaro | moymoy: How can i install the GUI command wise? | 12:35 |
| grawity | moymoy: Seahorse, the key management program, has an option for easy setup. But if you want to do that from the terminal, just run ssh-keygen on one computer, and copy the ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub file to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys of the other computer. | 12:35 |
| indus | hi | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Bullaro: 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' but the alternative cd SHOULD allready have that installed. | 12:36 |
| HippyEwan | Can someone tell me a quick way of viewing all the pcs on my network? | 12:37 |
| HippyEwan | and information about them, if possible? | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | HippyEwan: if they have samba shares.. you an use findsmb :) | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | HippyEwan: or use nmap to scan the network | 12:38 |
| grawity | HippyEwan: nmap. | 12:38 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: i'm gonna send you a private message, kay? | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | HippyEwan: depends n exactly what sort of info you want on them | 12:38 |

| moymoy | grawity: so the public key is stored on the computer hosting the ssh? | 12:42 |
| grawity | moymoy: yes | 12:42 |
| grawity | moymoy: the client computer must have both keys - id_rsa and id_rsa.pub | 12:43 |
| grawity | moymoy: and the server (the computer that runs sshd) must have authorized_keys containing the public key. | 12:43 |
| OttifantSir | Hustlers_23: You're right there. I converted a few years back, and never looked back. | 12:43 |
| moymoy | grawity: ahhh i see! .. i don't have the authorized_keys folder.. that must be why | 12:43 |
| grawity | moymoy: it's a file, not a folder | 12:44 |
| minimec | alfaromeo: Follow this guide and you will always have the newest driver https://launchpad.net/~tormodvolden/+archive/ppa | 12:44 |
| grawity | moymoy: btw, I think Ubuntu has a command 'ssh-copy-id' for easy setup of the keys. | 12:44 |
| alfaromeo | ok man ty very much | 12:44 |
| moymoy | grawity: when i did ssh-keygen, it only put id_rsa and id_rsa.pub in my ~/.ssh .. no authorized_keys | 12:44 |
| grawity | moymoy: because authorized_keys goes to the other computer | 12:45 |
| grawity | moymoy: copy ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to the other computer's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys. | 12:45 |

| KeesVleesch | I've got a question, would anyone care to help me out. It's about rdiff-backup | 13:55 |
| MindVirus | Is what I want unreasonable? | 13:55 |
| indus | duane: hmm? | 13:55 |
| niklas__ | cairodock how tu used | 13:56 |
| Bullaro | indus: cant right now tho, trying the alternate cd again | 13:56 |
| indus | Bullaro: why not? | 13:56 |
| Bullaro | indus: trying the alternate cd again | 13:56 |
| lstarnes | MindVirus: I'm not sure if there is a better way to do that, but I only use screen when I'm running a program in the shell that I will be keeping open for a long time, like irssi or emacs | 13:56 |
| indus | Bullaro: dont you have live cd? | 13:56 |
| mala2 | thanks jrib | 13:57 |
| MindVirus | lstarnes, you understand what I want, though, right? | 13:57 |
| ActionParsnip1 | alternate cd rocks | 13:57 |
| MindVirus | Is it silly to do what I want? | 13:57 |
| indus | i feel blind using it | 13:57 |
| Rives | Moving a Partition only 2 hrs left lol | 13:57 |
| IRConan | is rsync'ing the root fs an OK way of migrating an installation onto a new disk? | 13:57 |
| lstarnes | MindVirus: you want every shell to start in screen instead of on its own | 13:57 |
| gausie | How can I stop my CUPS server asking for authentication every time someone tries to print. I want to remove all authentication - all the computers on the network are my own. | 13:58 |
| moncky | MindVirus: why do you want to do that? I can't see the benifit | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: its lighter on the system as you dont have to run or boot an x server | 13:58 |
| MindVirus | moncky, let's say I connect through SSH and my connection dies. | 13:58 |
| MindVirus | I forgot to use screen. | 13:58 |
| MindVirus | I'm still safe. | 13:58 |
| uKnow | is there any way to figure out is the main partition is hda1 or hda2 on xp? for mount | 13:58 |
| flashkidd | hi all | 13:58 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: i know i know but if i never used it, i dont advice for or against it | 13:58 |
| Bullaro | indus: I click on guided: Use entire drive>I select the drive i want to use>I click install>"Partitions Formatting">that gets stuck at 5% then jumps to 9% and gives the error> | 13:58 |
| duane | indus: Bullaro said they were using the whole partion | 13:58 |
| sivel27 | hello everyone | 13:58 |
| duane | hi flahkidd | 13:59 |
| moncky | MindVirus: ok I understand, 2 secs | 13:59 |
| ardian_ | i have a problem with my TV Tuner ubuntu isnt recognizing it Please help | 13:59 |
| indus | duane: it automatically does that for guided mode i believe | 13:59 |
| flashkidd | hi duane | 13:59 |
| MindVirus | lstarnes, is it stupid to do? | 13:59 |
| indus | MindVirus: what is stupid | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: i find it great unless you want to do any resizing fun and games (should plan partitions in that case) | 13:59 |
| duane | ok | 13:59 |
| lstarnes | MindVirus: not really | 13:59 |
| MindVirus | indus, have screen running for every shell. | 13:59 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: one question?gparted allows resizing partitions without messing data am i right? | 14:00 |
| gausie | How can I stop my CUPS server asking for authentication every time someone tries to print? I want to remove all authentication - all the computers on the network are my own. | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: in most cases. gparted is gpl so has no warranties or garuntees | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: personally i've never resized as I am intelligent enough to plan my partitions first | 14:01 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: ok enough with the gpl stuff now will ya | 14:01 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: its a fact | 14:01 |
| propane | How can I open .exe files that are compatable with linux? | 14:01 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: so those who dont plan it are stupid? | 14:01 |
| gausie | can anyone help me? | 14:02 |
| moncky | MindVirus: i think you want to be adding somthing into the .bashrc file, however Im not sure if you would then open a screen within a screen within a screen everytime you wanted to ctrl-a c | 14:02 |
| === alfaromeo is now known as aranwe | ||
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: no i just think that those who intend to dual boot from a clean drive and don't plan partitions kinda are | 14:02 |
| Bullaro | indus: I click on guided: Use entire drive>I select the drive i want to use>I click install>"Partitions Formatting">that gets stuck at 5% then jumps to 9% and gives the error> | 14:02 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: i too plan my partitions,but some user wanted advice here on that, and needs grow bigger every day,so i take offence to that | 14:02 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: otherwise if its a long standing established OS then resizing is fine | 14:02 |
| lstarnes | propane: linux doesn't use .exe natively, but you could try running the .exe in wine (if it's a regular windows .exe) or with mono (if it's a .NET assembly in a .exe) | 14:02 |
| MindVirus | moncky, what is your recommendation? | 14:02 |
| indus | Bullaro: yes i read it | 14:02 |
| Whit2Spring | guys, hi | 14:02 |
| Bullaro | indus: oke | 14:03 |
| ai4peter | But I can't install ubuntu at all! I ended up installing Debian, but it seems the driver is still no good | 14:03 |
| ai4peter | it went blank! | 14:03 |
| indus | !who | ai4peter | 14:04 |
| ubottu | ai4peter: 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 :) | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip1 | ai4peter: what hardware | 14:04 |
| indus | Bullaro: what are the types of partitions you selected?? | 14:04 |
| moncky | MindVirus: try it out and see how it goes? | 14:04 |
| MindVirus | moncky, I don't know what to try. | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: people get offended all the time, its quite expected in a world of diversity | 14:04 |
| Bullaro | indus: Its just 1 partitions. Dont know wether its FAT32 or NTFS, think its NTFS tho. | 14:05 |
| duane | ! | 14:05 |
| ai4peter | sorry, I am new here. My hardware is Toshiba A350 | 14:05 |
| indus | Bullaro: hmm can you give me a printscreen of that window somehow? | 14:05 |
| ActionParsnip1 | ai4peter: no, thats your system, the hardware is the graphics card, or the sound card, or a network device | 14:05 |
| propane | How can I create a partition in full? :/ | 14:05 |
| Bullaro | indus: what window? The error screen or the partition screen? | 14:06 |
| ActionParsnip1 | propane: run: gksudo gparted | 14:06 |
| indus | Bullaro: partition screen | 14:06 |
| ActionParsnip1 | propane: gparted will help you define partitions | 14:06 |
| indus | Bullaro: after guided option | 14:06 |
| Bullaro | indus: the error screen is: http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/6927/123qxt.jpg | 14:06 |
| propane | I heard you can't use Gparted unless you burn it into a ISO image. Is there a program for Ubuntu that can do that? | 14:07 |
| indus | Bullaro: do a hard disk check with some tool | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip1 | propane: its on the live cd | 14:07 |
| indus | Bullaro: cd drive also might be end of life | 14:07 |
| indus | Bullaro: run hdd tests with some tool in windows | 14:07 |
| propane | If I don't have the live cd, do I need to re-get it then? | 14:08 |
| loose | Asterisk 1.6.1.1 ! how is it better than the previous versions? | 14:08 |
| Bullaro | indus: its nearly a brand new machine (well its about 2 years old but nearly never been used) | 14:08 |
| ActionParsnip1 | propane: you will need any bootable linux cd (even gentoo minimal will do) | 14:08 |
| Cigimo0 | I'm new to Linux. I had Windows. Only one thing to say: wow. I gtg ;) | 14:09 |
| Bullaro | indus: is there a linux command for chkdisk? | 14:09 |
| indus | Bullaro: still, i suggest you run this test to make sure thats not the issue,then we can go further | 14:09 |
| Bullaro | indus: since the alternate cd is nearly done | 14:09 |
| ethanol | Why does firefox attempt to download plain/text rather than just display it? | 14:09 |
| ethanol | ): | 14:09 |
| indus | Bullaro: oh its installing? | 14:09 |
| propane | So if I was to have only a USB stick, how can I extract the iso files onto my flash drive? | 14:09 |
| Bullaro | indus: yeah with the alt cd :P | 14:09 |
| indus | Bullaro: then cool | 14:09 |
| oskar- | ethanol: depends also on web server settings (mime-type) | 14:09 |
| ethanol | I see | 14:09 |
| Bullaro | indus: but then I wont get a GUI | 14:09 |
| indus | Bullaro: no no you will later on | 14:10 |
| or4n9e | is there an alternative to update-notifier available somewhere? | 14:10 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: is that correct,once installed from alt cd, how to get gui? | 14:10 |
| ethanol | oskar-: but I'm sending a header('Content-Type: plain/text'); in a php file. And firefox wants to download it :< | 14:10 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: the alternate cd will give an x server | 14:10 |
| ethanol | oskar-: I presume that would overrule the server mime settings? | 14:10 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: the minimal and server cd will not | 14:10 |
| oskar- | ethanol: hm... i don't know, it should perhaps, yes | 14:10 |
| Bullaro | indus: gonna try that command you gave me, moymoy gave me the command: sudo apt-get install xorg xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-video-all xserver-xorg-input-mouse xserver-xorg-input-kbd gnome-desktop-environment | but then I get the message; Couldnt find gnome-desktop-environment | 14:10 |
| indus | Bullaro: so once you finish install,just reboot and you will get x | 14:11 |
| or4n9e | something like a simple update checker for apt? | 14:11 |
| Bullaro | indus: I hope | 14:11 |
| iceroot | or4n9e: apticron | 14:11 |
| oskar- | ethanol: i would try to download the file manually with telnet to see all the headers | 14:11 |
| aleix | does anyone know a channel i can join to talk about vlans? | 14:11 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1:you mean a gui ? | 14:11 |
| iceroot | or4n9e: is a cli-tool which will check for updates and send you an email | 14:11 |
| ActionParsnip1 | propane: you can use http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-kubuntu-904-persistent-install-windows/ | 14:11 |
| blind|melon|chit | Has anyone else noticed lately that the weather applet for GNOME is no longer updating? | 14:12 |
| ethanol | oskar-: uh, how would that work. 'telnet localhost' ? | 14:12 |
| indus | Bullaro: wait 1 sec i ask ActionParsnip1 about gui | 14:12 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: i mean an x server | 14:12 |
| sfdsd | hello every1, anybody know how to do kde panel-menu hidden and not appearing this anyway? | 14:12 |
| Ryan1 | How do I install a new "start button" for ubuntu - I have downloaded the contents of a new button from gnome-look | 14:12 |
| Bullaro | indus: sure | 14:12 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: and for the client? | 14:12 |
| jacquesdupontd | hi everybody | 14:12 |
| jacquesdupontd | i'll need a bit of time of somebody very cool :) | 14:12 |
| or4n9e | iceroot: interesting but not what I'm looking for - problem is ... update-notifier in intrepid does not work when logged in as root | 14:12 |
| jacquesdupontd | but i'm not a newbie so it will be fast i think | 14:13 |
| haydemon | has anybody reported problems with the Ubuntu 9.04 upgrade? | 14:13 |
| Bullaro | jacquesdupontd: Just ask your question | 14:13 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: the alternative CD will install an x based session, it just install in text mode. The desktop C Dallows a graphical install and boots to an x session too. The miniamal and server installs boot to a command line and install in text mode | 14:13 |
| propane | Nope, haydemon. | 14:13 |
| oskar- | ethanol: "telnet localhost 80" and then "GET / HTTP/1.0" (2x return) | 14:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | i was identifying | 14:13 |
| or4n9e | thus I'm looking for an alternative that puts out a systray notify using the notification daemon | 14:13 |
| haydemon | currently using hardy heron, but would like to upgrade | 14:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | just installed a new fresh install of ubuntu 9.04 | 14:13 |
| ethanol | oh | 14:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | i have an ati | 14:13 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: iam asking,once the installation is over and i reboot,do i see a gui | 14:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | you know the following ? | 14:13 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: can you clarify "and for the client". I don't understand | 14:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | I WANT OPENGL :) | 14:14 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: well read last message | 14:14 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: if you use the alternate install, yes | 14:14 |
| jacquesdupontd | i wanna play warsow when i want :) | 14:14 |
| jacquesdupontd | yesterday i've passed all the night searching | 14:14 |
| indus | ActionParsnip1: Bullaro:ok it seems you will have gui on reboot | 14:14 |
| propane | ActionParsnip1:I don't have Kubuntu. | 14:14 |
| ethanol | oskar-: http://paste.robbast.nl/2PmA looks good to me | 14:14 |
| propane | I have Kubuntu | 14:14 |
| Bullaro | indus: then i think my machine is just f*cked up ;) | 14:14 |
| ActionParsnip1 | indus: so if you use the kubuntu alternate install, it will install in text mode then once rebooted it will boot to kde | 14:14 |
| or4n9e | just like update-notifier do - update-manager isn't needed, I'm going to use apt-get update && apt-get upgrade followed by apt-get dist-upgrade | 14:14 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: which ati card | 14:14 |
| jacquesdupontd | ati mobility radeon 7000 | 14:15 |
| haydemon | so should I just take the plunge and upgrade to 9.04? I had LOTS of problems getting my 8.04 system to work with all the features I need, so I'm quite reluctant | 14:15 |
| Bullaro | idnus: ill retry anyway. If it wont work this time ill ask my cousin :P | 14:15 |
| indus | Bullaro: have you finished the alternate install? | 14:15 |
| jacquesdupontd | we could get propriety driver before on it | 14:15 |
| moymoy | Bullaro: you installed the server edition right? the server edition doesn't come with a gui | 14:15 |
| oskar- | ethanol: it is text/plain, afaik | 14:15 |
| jacquesdupontd | and now with the new xorg it's not possible, or may it be that's why i'm here to ask | 14:15 |
| oskar- | ;-) | 14:15 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: thats old card and you are using ubuntu 9.04 so support has been dropped for it | 14:15 |
| Ryan1 | Does anyone have an idea why Firefox won't display images on www.gnome-look.org? | 14:15 |
| jacquesdupontd | i have installed like 7 kernel yesterday :) | 14:15 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: i suggest you install ubuntu 8.04 | 14:15 |
| ethanol | oskar-: argh.. I'm a dumbass =D | 14:15 |
| ethanol | oskar-: thanks. | 14:16 |
| oskar- | no problem | 14:16 |
| Bullaro | indus: not yet... its at about 60% | 14:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | first, no, and yes that's an old card | 14:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | it doesn't comes that it's old there's just a problem with ati | 14:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | not with ubuntu | 14:16 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: no what | 14:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | and the new xorg | 14:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | check forums | 14:16 |
| indus | !who | jacquesdupontd | 14:16 |
| FloodBot1 | jacquesdupontd: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:16 |
| ubottu | jacquesdupontd: 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 :) | 14:16 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Ryan1: try running firefox -p create a new profile and use that. if it works then its the profile thats at fault | 14:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | i've checked them all the night | 14:16 |
| ActionParsnip1 | propane: it can use either ISO. It doesnt matter, you could use a fluxbuntu ISO if you wanted, or SuSE. | 14:17 |
| ActionParsnip1 | propane: its just an example | 14:17 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: please use my nick or some nick so we know who you are speaking with | 14:17 |
| Bullaro | indus: The alternate CD gave me the message: Please instert the CD Ubuntu_Jacky_Antilope | 14:17 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: are you using ubuntu 9.04 | 14:17 |
| jacquesdupontd | anyway i'm searching for someone that knows this particulary problem and had a way ot resolve it like some tried | 14:18 |
| Bullaro | indus: but the cd was in the drive :P | 14:18 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus : sorry | 14:18 |
| propane | I'll still need an alternate PC still, it seems. | 14:18 |
| indus | Bullaro: jacky antilope hehe | 14:18 |

| JoeM | I installed two new hds but fdisk /dev/sdd says unable to open... what am I forgetting | 14:18 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, and we see it in red in xchat :) | 14:18 |
| Ryan1 | ActionParsnip1: Thanks, I rand Firefox using "Firefox -p" but the images still don't show | 14:18 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: fun isnt it | 14:18 |
| Ryan1 | ActionParsnip1: they show in a different browser though | 14:18 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i knew it but always pleasent | 14:18 |
| indus | Bullaro: hmm funny message | 14:19 |
| moncky | JoeM: have you partitioned and formated them? Mounted them? | 14:19 |
| indus | Bullaro: your cd rom or hdd is messed up man | 14:19 |
| Ryan1 | ActionParsnip1: I cleared private data - think that might have done something | 14:19 |
| Bullaro | indus: Yapp.. gotta call my cousin then :P | 14:19 |
| JoeM | moncky I was trying to partition them | 14:19 |
| indus | Bullaro: mostly cd drive i feel,check the cables or something | 14:19 |
| Bullaro | indus: he always has about 1k spare parts ;) | 14:19 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, by the i find this version extremly good it was making 1 year that i was not using ubuntu and i was obliged for this old computer | 14:19 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: please tell me if you using 9.04 | 14:20 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, it did much evoluate in many points and that's much apprechiated | 14:20 |
| Bullaro | indus: I rather dont touch the hardware on that machine... that machine is scary as hell | 14:20 |
| indus | *appreciated | 14:20 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, yes man and i don't wanna reinstall everything just to play warsow, it's quite working good for everything else | 14:20 |
| haydemon | Anyone: I'm a quasi beginner using Linux, currently Ubuntu 8.04, since it came out, previously on board for about 4 months; took me a lot of headaches and trial & errors to upgrade to 8.04, and would like advise on whether of not to upgrade to 9.04, and if I could expect as many problems as before? | 14:20 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: ok you said you want to play warsow | 14:20 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i just putted an old trend wifi card on it and i was directly receiving wifi, didn't had to install any driver | 14:21 |
| indus | haydemon: what problems have you had with 8.04 | 14:21 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: ya its brilliant for wireless i agree | 14:21 |
| jacquesdupontd | really | 14:21 |
| JoeM | moncky what am I forgetting so I can partition it? | 14:21 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: try 8.10 then, i think | 14:21 |
| haydemon | Indus: I had problems at first, such as connecting to the network files, sound, video, etc. | 14:21 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i don't wanna reinstall believe me | 14:21 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: then no hope for warsow :) | 14:22 |
| moncky | JoeM: mke2fs? | 14:22 |
| haydemon | now I'm having problems getting a scanner to work | 14:22 |
| C0nn0R | wom 4 | 14:22 |
| C0nn0R | sorry wrong command | 14:22 |
| JoeM | monky don't I have to partition it first? | 14:22 |
| c7p | does anyone know if there is a log file about that packages that i ve installed / removed from my system? | 14:22 |
| OttifantSir | haydemon: Which scanner? | 14:22 |
| Boohbah | c7p: /var/log/dpkg.log | 14:22 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, you know what i've learnt in informatic ? there's always hope for every problem and this one is a really easy one compared to others | 14:23 |
| moncky | JoeM: you have to make a filesystem, then partition that filesystem then format | 14:23 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i may have to wait | 14:23 |
| c7p | Boohbah: thx man | 14:23 |
| haydemon | OttifantSir: HP Scanjet 5300C | 14:23 |
| rusty- | Hello guys! my friend get's this error when installing programs from the terminal E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 14:23 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, but there's already some patches comming to patch catalyst drivers | 14:23 |
| JoeM | moncky grumble, must have had it backwards | 14:23 |
| Boohbah | rusty-: did you run 'dpkg --configure -a' ? | 14:23 |
| grawity | rusty-: then do what it says. | 14:23 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: yes i think someone might add support in some time | 14:23 |
| rusty- | Boohbah: yeah I told him to do that | 14:23 |
| grawity | rusty-: with sudo? | 14:24 |
| moncky | JoeM: actually I think I have it backwards | 14:24 |
| oskar- | rusty-: with sudo in front | 14:24 |
| rusty- | Boohbah: still waiting for his answere though | 14:24 |
| moncky | JoeM: http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Adding_a_New_Disk_Drive_to_an_Ubuntu_Linux_System | 14:24 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, an exemple when i reinstall ubuntu multi boot with windows i had a "a disk read error occured" when launching windows, everybody was telling me it's dead man format all and reinstall everything i've said NO, i know we can solve that thing, and i did it alone | 14:24 |
| indus | c7p: synaptic>file>history | 14:24 |
| Guest16433 | big deal | 14:24 |
| hareldvd | After some unknown time my machines audio capabilities stop as if were hijacked. Any idea? | 14:25 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i go always as far as i can to resolve a problem and for now i never didn't resolved one | 14:25 |
| haydemon | OttifantSir: figured out that I may have to downgrade the libsane to an older version (1.0.18-3ubuntu1), but I'm afraid it may cause other problems if I do | 14:25 |
| JoeM | moncky I'm an idiot... forgot sudo | 14:25 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: ok man good for you | 14:25 |
| indus | good luck | 14:25 |
| c7p | indus: thx but i want sth that i can access(eg logfile) it without gui | 14:25 |
| Guest16433 | what's up with the crappy glut support | 14:25 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, and i was thinking that on this BIG channel that is #ubuntu i'll find someone in my position that found the trick but it doesn't seem | 14:26 |

| wapko | laeg: absolutely not :P i havent the faintest. but it works as i want it to | 14:50 |
| zaggynl | (I don't want to disturb my colleagues with some jungle drums hammering away) | 14:50 |

| grawity | diddy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runlevel#Debian_Linux might be helpful. BVy default, they are all the same. | 15:17 |

| wng-- | i installed ubuntu 9.04 with the alternate cd, on a linux software raid1, it didn't seem to install grub, my /boot is /dev/md0 and consists of /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1, running grub, then root (hd0,0), setup (hd0) on a live cd doesn't seem to install grub either, any idea what I need to do to get this to boot? | 16:10 |
| usr13 | Kostas: Ok, well, it's fixed now. | 16:10 |
| Kostas | usr13: STATA 9 is a statistical package. after I installed it I tried to run the programme. It didn't work, so I closed the konsole and tried to open it again. It would not open. Then tried to reboot and got all the error messages I told you about | 16:10 |
| jacquesdupontd | jrib, could you explain me the command "'" and the tild and the "n" | 16:10 |
| Illusion | Hello Folks, I have a question about PXEBOOT/tftpboot in Ubuntu 64 8.10 server edition. Is it possible to boot up Windows CD's (unattended). I can boot Linux images (Knoppix Live/Ubuntu Live/Gparted without any problems but Windows kernels don't like me. Anybody has a an idea to resolve such issue's. I know it's a lot easier to use a Windows server with RIS to remote install client machines. | 16:10 |
| itswhatev | Bullaro: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 16:11 |
| usr13 | Kostas: Ok, well, I don't even know what SATA 9 is. | 16:11 |

| wildc4rd | afternoon all | 16:11 |
| * usr13 SATA 9 goes over head | 16:11 | |
| film42 | or laptop-mode-tools i should say | 16:12 |
| Kostas | usr13: Stata 9 is a statistical package | 16:12 |
| ankush123 | partition recovery needed | 16:12 |
| film42 | doesnt seem to do much | 16:12 |
| bazhang | jroes, why would you even consider that | 16:12 |
| jroes | bazhang: I need a newer version of a package: rake | 16:12 |
| jroes | why wouldn't I consider that? | 16:13 |
| bazhang | jroes, not supported; will lead to serious breakage | 16:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | jrib, anyway it worked | 16:13 |
| jroes | there are only two dependencies | 16:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | jrib, thx a lot | 16:13 |
| jroes | and I satisfy both | 16:13 |
| jroes | should be fine | 16:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | jrib, will see after a restart :) | 16:13 |
| bazhang | jroes, mixing packages from different versions is an unwise decision, in the extreme | 16:14 |
| Kostas | usr13: should it be safe to try and run Stata again? | 16:14 |
| IRConan | when resize2fs refers to 4k blocks does it mean 4000 bytes or 4096 bytes? | 16:14 |
| usr13 | Kostas: Not sure... I'm not at all clear on why it changed ownership to your /home/kostas so, whether it'll do it again is beyond the scope of my knowledge. | 16:15 |

| mobi-sheep | Curious -- What would be best way to test a system that you would purchase via Craigslist? Run Ubuntu LiveCD. Is there a cool package/tool that'll list everything and test everything, etc? | 16:16 |
| usr13 | Kostas: I would read up on it first, see what it is supposed to do and not supposed to do and how to control it so that it does only what you want it to do. (As I said before I do not know anything about SATA 9 | 16:16 |
| Kostas | usr13: I sensed that, it was a lame question from my part. Was the malfunction common? | 16:16 |
| usr13 | Kostas: The malfunction is very uncommon. | 16:17 |
| Kostas | usr13: do you happen to know what usually causes it? | 16:17 |
| usr13 | Kostas: I suggest reading any documentation that comes with the application before going any further. | 16:17 |
| usr13 | Kostas: I have not seen anything like that happen before. | 16:18 |

| Kostas | usr13: Stata is a very common package to do statistics at college. Its not supposed to mess up your system. To be sure, six months ago my laptop (then running vista) crashed, so I decided to change to Ubuntu. Again, I was trying to install some programme (Audacity) when the blue screen came up | 16:19 |
| _dr | hi, what's the name of the binary of the volume applet in ubuntu? | 16:20 |

| usr13 | Kostas: Well, you know what happened the first time, and how you fixed it, so if it happens again, you know how to fix it again. But... | 16:21 |
| itswhatev | see #ubuntu i can do stuff | 16:21 |
| cannonball | Keyboards are pretty much interchangeable, right? If I get one made for a mac (AKB-805MAC by Adesso), that should plug right in and just work to my PC (Dell Vostro workstation), right? The only "drivers" necessary would be to access to extra function keys and such. Right? | 16:21 |
| usr13 | Kostas: I do not know that SATA 9 caused the problem you had. You THINK it did so I assume you know more than me, but I do know know how or who changed ownership of your /home/kostas directory. | 16:22 |
| kellyh | cannonball: should just work, will need to select the correct keyboard layout. The function keys should work without much editing (do on my USB Mac keyboard) | 16:22 |
| usr13 | Kostas: And as far as installing audacity ruining your system... I'm doubtful about that being the case because I have installed audacity on a number of computers and have had no problems. | 16:23 |
| axisys | how do I clean up the typescript, the output of script .. it has lots of characters like this '^[[0;31m' or '^M' | 16:23 |
| usr13 | Kostas: I would suggest that; You assume audacity wrecked your system but you don't know. (Same with SATA 9) | 16:23 |
| Kostas | usr13: I am only making assumptions about stata because it was the last thing I've done before the crash | 16:24 |
| cannonball | kellyh: thanks for confirming, gonna order one of those. It's the only ergonomic one I can find that has the 6 key on the right hand. All the new ones put it on the left hand. I touch type and much prefer leaving it on the right hand. | 16:24 |
| Kostas | usr13: could my system been hacked or something? | 16:24 |
| JediMaster | hey guys, I'm getting stuck trying to get UFW to put prerouting iptables rules in before.rules, the first few lines are: http://pastebin.com/dcca6362 | 16:24 |
| usr13 | Kostas: ...or someone. DO you know someone that could have gotten your PC and played a little prank on you? | 16:25 |
| kellyh | cannonball: you will have to get used to a slightly different layout, and things like # requiring right-alt+3 etc | 16:25 |
| Kostas | usr13: highly unlikely as I am the only person who touches it | 16:25 |

| diddy | After a kernal upgrade I mean. | 16:26 |
| usr13 | Kostas: I would definately suggest changing it. | 16:26 |

| usr13 | azlon: It may very well be a tricky project to get ICS to work proprely on the LIVE CD, I just really don't know. I do however, know that firestarter is good to use for that. I've set up ICS with firestarter more than once and has always worked flawlessly for me. | 16:34 |

| scunizi | Whats the difference between suspend and hibernate? | 16:49 |
| Pici | jlaroche: Are you sure that this disk is even physically working? Does your BIOS see it? | 16:49 |
| tj83_ | scunizi, suspend is suspend to ram, hibernate is suspend to disk | 16:49 |
| Zopiac | What is the name of the ATI control panel program? | 16:49 |
| stevecoh1 | Can someone explain ArchiveMounter to me? I open an archive with it, I can see it under "Places" but I want to access the mount from the command line. Is this possible? The "mount" doesn't show up when I run the mount command. | 16:49 |
| scunizi | tj83_: ah thanks.. | 16:49 |
| grawity | scunizi: 'hibernate' stores all your RAM contents to disk (in Linux, /swap) and fully turns off the computer. | 16:49 |
| jlaroche | Pici - my BIOS sees it fine | 16:49 |

| scunizi | Is there a way to control the fan in a laptop? I suspect mine isn't being controlled correctly as the machine will eventually get overhot. | 16:50 |
| djzn | oh, one more thing | 16:50 |
| djzn | the ext4 thing | 16:51 |
| Pici | jlaroche: hm. | 16:51 |
| djzn | will be the default for karmic? | 16:51 |
| azlon | i will just install ubuntu under a dual boot... maybe its the live cd | 16:51 |

| stevecoh1 | Let me try another way: are archives mounted with Archive Mounter visible outside Nautilus? | 16:52 |
| grawity | stevecoh1: I don't think so. | 16:53 |
| djzn | is ext4 already recommended or should users with important data keep ext3 for now? | 16:53 |
| grawity | stevecoh1: I think Archive Mounter uses GVFS for it -- the same thing that's used for sftp:// and such locations. | 16:54 |
| jlaroche | I'd like to know the answer to djzn's question as well... | 16:54 |
| djzn | i have tested ext4 and saw no real difference to ext3... perhaps a little bit improvement... but i was afraid of it, since some people are nagging about it... | 16:54 |
| stevecoh1 | thanks grawity - although I did use ArchiveMounter this morning to create a VMWare Virtaul Machine. But I can't see it from the command line. Don't know what GVFS is. | 16:54 |
| grawity | stevecoh1: but, it seems archives _can_ be accessed through ~/.gvfs - but I doubt that's reliable. | 16:55 |
| Zopiac | apparently you cant change contrast/gamma in amdcccle? thats sad | 16:55 |
| stevecoh1 | might be good enuf, thanks, will try. | 16:55 |
| MindVirus | How do I turn the tray icon in Rhythmbox off? | 16:55 |
| tj83_ | Zopiac, dig deeper | 16:55 |
| Zopiac | tj83_: ive looked at every tab, etc. | 16:55 |
| jlaroche | djzn - it seems as if my 74gb wd raptor (10k rpm) with ext4 is not functioning and I am having a hard time gaining access to it (to try to sort out the issue or salvage data) | 16:56 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: Should find it someplace in Rythmbox's config menus | 16:56 |
| jlaroche | djzn - not sure if have ext3 would have helped | 16:56 |
| MindVirus | usr13, brilliant. | 16:56 |
| Zopiac | tj83_: the only thing close is Colour, which makes the screen look washed out. | 16:56 |
| djzn | jlaroche: i see... hmm | 16:56 |
| MindVirus | usr13, I've looked through all of them. | 16:56 |
| MindVirus | I turned off the Minimize to Tray plugin but it's still sitting there. | 16:56 |
| shuaib | Hi, if I install python 2.6 from source on ubuntu, will it conflict with the already installed 2.5 version of Python on the system? | 16:57 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: May be that you need to restart gdm | 16:57 |
| shuaib | Also, I've installed gnuradio and numpy, I hope new installation of python 2.6 will pick that up...? | 16:57 |
| MindVirus | usr13, that cannot be the issue. Rhythmbox and GDM are completely unrelated. | 16:57 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: Or restart Rythmbox | 16:57 |
| MindVirus | I did. | 16:57 |
| shuaib | Or if I install python2.6 to /opt, and reinstall gnuradio and numpy to /opt too, can I have two different version of all these software correctly working then? | 16:58 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: Rythmbox runs on gdm | 16:58 |
| MindVirus | usr13, what? | 16:58 |
| orange_ | packaging pro around? | 16:58 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: so I would not say that they are completely unrelated. | 16:58 |
| MindVirus | GDM is the login manager. | 16:58 |
| bala | pici i've lower sound on my headphone y? | 16:58 |
| orange_ | I rebuild a deb package and all works fine but a certain file gets installed as foo.distrib instead of foo | 16:59 |
| MindVirus | usr13, GDM is the login manager. | 16:59 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: GDM - The GNOME Display Manage | 16:59 |
| orange_ | I need to manually rename to make the deb run | 16:59 |
| Pici | bala: I'm a bit busy here, please address the channel. | 16:59 |
| Zopiac | usr13 MindVirus: i have the tray icon in IceWM too, so it isn't gnome's problem. and yes, GDM is the login screen only | 16:59 |
| djzn | jlaroche: i think it could be wiser to give ext4 a little more time... | 16:59 |
| MindVirus | Thanks. | 16:59 |
| bala | pici wht u mean? | 17:00 |
| orange_ | is anyone aware why this is? i.e. how to prevent this? | 17:00 |
| usr13 | Zopiac: MindVirus I don't know about you guys... but GDM is the GNOME Display Manage | 17:00 |
| Pici | bala: Don't ask me, ask #ubuntu | 17:00 |
| djzn | jlaroche: let's says it crashes the hell out of linus torvalds files... then something would be realllly bad...lol | 17:00 |
| MindVirus | usr13, yes, that is absolutely what it's called. | 17:00 |
| laeg | i'm trying to connect from a win machine to webmin running on ubuntu at home on port 10000 but ff tells me i'm connected to a proxy that's refusing the connection - is there anyway for me to determine a good alternate port? | 17:00 |
| usr13 | Manager* | 17:00 |
| orange_ | is there a ubuntu-dev channel? | 17:00 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: Left off the r sorry | 17:00 |
| MindVirus | I don't care, usr13. | 17:00 |
| bala | ubuntu my headphone sound lower how to increase? | 17:00 |
| MindVirus | usr13, but yeah, it's the login manager. | 17:01 |
| Guest23440 | Hi People, How do I install CodeBlocks on Hardy Heron? In the past I could update it automatically, but I had to do a partial upgrade and now CodeBlocks is removed... :S | 17:01 |
| MindVirus | usr13, GDM is a misnomer. | 17:01 |
| Zopiac | usr13: yes it is what is stands for, but it is only the display manager for the Gnome login screen | 17:01 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: All I'm saying is that if you restart the X server, it might make a difference. I don't know that for a fact, but it might. Ok? | 17:01 |
| MindVirus | usr13, it won't. :) | 17:01 |

| oenone1 | helloq | 17:02 |
| oenone1 | i need help please | 17:02 |
| MindVirus | usr13, I'm not trying to be a dick at all, by the way. Sorry if I'm coming off as one. | 17:02 |
| Pici | !ask | oenone1 | 17:02 |
| ubottu | oenone1: 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. :-) | 17:02 |
| MindVirus | Which I realize might be the case. | 17:02 |
| jlaroche | djzn - tell me about it. There are a lot of things about linux that bother me in that respect. I've seen so many bug reports that get arrogantly dismissed for arbitrary reasons while the bugs continue and persist from version to version of various linux distributions and even kernels | 17:02 |
| Pici | !bot > bala | 17:02 |
| ubottu | bala, please see my private message | 17:02 |

| oenone1 | how to burn .iso files in jaunty | 17:02 |
| shuaib | Hi, my package manager is not able to update python to newer version of 2.6... | 17:02 |
| MindVirus | usr13, your login manager restarts. | 17:02 |
| shuaib | Search doesn't show up newer versin | 17:02 |
| shuaib | What am I missing | 17:02 |
| shuaib | 2.5 is already installed | 17:02 |
| Zopiac | usr13: you log out and back in. the GDM is still /there/ but it isnt active when you login | 17:02 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: I beg do differ. The X server restarts. Try it. | 17:03 |
| MindVirus | I know what it does. | 17:03 |
| MindVirus | Yes, it does. | 17:03 |
| Pici | shuaib: Then 2.6 is not available in the repositories for your version of Ubuntu. | 17:03 |
| MindVirus | usr13, you know, you can run KDE or XFCE from GDM. | 17:03 |
| MindVirus | GDM has little to do with GNOME. | 17:03 |
| MindVirus | Furthermore, you don't need GDM to have a running X session. | 17:03 |
| MindVirus | So there. | 17:03 |
| orange_ | ubuntu-dev channel somewhere with some packaging guys? | 17:03 |
| Zopiac | lol | 17:03 |
| usr13 | Ok. Well, I assume you are running gnome because you are on the Ubuntu channel. | 17:03 |
| Pici | orange_: #ubuntu-motu | 17:03 |
| orange_ | Pici, thx | 17:03 |
| MindVirus | usr13, that's a safe assumption, but GDM is not GNOME. | 17:03 |
| Zopiac | usr13: im running IceWM because there is no IceUbuntu channel ^_^ | 17:04 |
| Zopiac | er, im in #ubuntu for that reason | 17:04 |
| MindVirus | XFCE is lookin' good nowadays, BTW. And whatever happened to E? | 17:04 |
| deagle | still there | 17:04 |
| Zopiac | MindVirus: its still available, why? | 17:04 |
| MindVirus | Zopiac, it was hyped up for a long time. | 17:04 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: Ok, I mispoke then. My suggestion was to restart the X server. Do it how ever you want to. If it works fine, if it does not work, sorry.... | 17:05 |
| hoglahoo | good morning ubuntu. *I need help with evolution mail* I want to use the same folders and settings I have been using for a couple of years on a different hard drive. When I simply copy the folder over, I don't see the different email accounts I used previously. What should I do? | 17:05 |
| oenone1 | how do i burn an iso file in jaunty | 17:05 |
| MindVirus | usr13, thanks. :) But the X server won't change anything. Rhythmbox is independent of X. | 17:05 |
| hoglahoo | is backup and restore the best way | 17:05 |
| oenone1 | can i burn an iso file in jaunty | 17:05 |
| kthyon | pleaselink to buntu.es | 17:05 |
| MindVirus | oenone1, plenty of ways -- first of all, you can use Brasero. | 17:05 |
| MindVirus | But I prefer nautilus' built-in burning mechanism. | 17:05 |
| oenone1 | does jaunty have one | 17:06 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: If you think it is independent of X then just turn off X and see if you can get it to run! ???? | 17:06 |
| oenone1 | or do i have to instal a program to burn iso files | 17:06 |
| kthyon | client p2p for ubuntu please | 17:06 |
| MindVirus | oenone1, open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install nautilus-cd-burner" without the quotes. | 17:07 |
| MindVirus | usr13, you need an X server to run it but restarting X will not change anything. | 17:07 |
| Pici | !p2p > kthyon | 17:07 |
| kthyon | client p2p for ubuntu please | 17:07 |
| ubottu | kthyon, please see my private message | 17:07 |
| MindVirus | Actually, you don't, usr13. | 17:07 |
| MindVirus | You can run using framebuffer. | 17:07 |
| MindVirus | DirectFB works well. | 17:07 |
| MindVirus | oenone1, AFAIK, Ubuntu comes with it by default. | 17:08 |
| kthyon | p2p forubutnu | 17:08 |
| oenone1 | where do i go to get it | 17:08 |
| MindVirus | But I am not sure, oenone1. Once the installation is done, right click on the .ISO and click Burn to CD. | 17:08 |
| aldo | hello | 17:08 |
| kthyon | please | 17:09 |
| kthyon | p2p for ubuntu | 17:09 |

| treetop | i just did an update on my ubuntu server and now when i start it up the screen looks all crazy something is wrong with my videocard now and know what i can to do in terminal recovery screen to fix it ? | 17:09 |
| viking_ | helloooooooooo, i need to reinstall grub but not sure how. so i booted up from the live cd, terminal is open, what do i do next????? | 17:09 |
| gilles_ | How do I change the text at the terminal prompt? | 17:10 |
| L3dPlatedLinux | ok I would like to say first I am enjoying rtorrent now is there a easy way to make a torrent file with having to install all kinds of apps to do so? | 17:10 |
| lstarnes | gilles_: change the value of the variable PS1 | 17:10 |
| MindVirus | gilles_, it's in ~/.bashrc | 17:10 |
| kthyon | please link to ubuntu-es | 17:10 |
| lstarnes | kthyon: /join #ubuntu-es | 17:10 |
| usr13 | MindVirus: We were talking about having a "tray icon" and that is dependent on the X server, or the Gnome Display Manager (Or gnome window manager). If you restart ghome, it might just make a difference. But don't listen to me because I am totally ignorant, I just started using Linux / Ubuntu yesterday. :) | 17:10 |
| gilles_ | Thanks lstarnes and MindVirus | 17:10 |
| MindVirus | gilles_, but yes, PS1 is the variable containing the prompt. If you want your change to be permanent change it in .bashrc. | 17:10 |
| aldo | Does anybody know why when i type the letter t in the ubuntu terminal it paste's my clipboard | 17:11 |
| MindVirus | usr13, no biggie, dude. I hope you like it so far. | 17:11 |
| usr13 | just might make a difference* (left out "might") | 17:11 |

| jamiejackson | where can i find out what the "tags" field is for when creating a launchpad bug report? | 17:21 |
| Illusion | Hi, I have a question about PXEBOOT/tftpboot in Ubuntu 64 8.10 server edition. Is it possible to boot up Windows CD's (unattended). I can boot Linux images (Knoppix Live/Ubuntu Live/Gparted) without any problems but Windows kernels don't like me. Anybody has a an idea to resolve such issue's. I know it's a lot easier to use a Windows server with RIS to remote install client machines. | 17:21 |

| Hustlers_23 | aight | 17:42 |
| scunizi | propane: ok.. I understand your tired.. so don't get frustrated if I redirect you a little.. Really what you're trying to do is create a partition at the *begining* of the drive for xp and that can't be done while booted into ubuntu because the partitions are mounted. | 17:42 |
| Hustlers_23 | thought so | 17:42 |
| datta | how do i install the theme from this link http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Linsta+New?content=71375 | 17:42 |

| Hustlers_23 | installed it, tested n says it is installed | 17:42 |
| propane | I know that scunizi, that's why I was going to use the Gparted ISO image, to change partitions while my drives are unmounted. | 17:43 |

| Hustlers_23 | yet wen i open runescape it wont load anything but white screen lol | 17:43 |

| jrib | william56: no | 17:43 |
| richardcavell | jrib: Never mind, it seems that it wants to work now. | 17:43 |
| scunizi | propane: what would be easier is to boot to a live cd (ubuntu) use gparted and create the partition you need. don't format it. windows will do that. | 17:43 |
| specto | !themes > datta | 17:43 |

| scunizi | propane: the live cd has gparted installed on it. | 17:43 |

| Hustlers_23 | scunizi, if i was to do that using gparted, and there was a contingous(sic) file in the last half of my partition wen i defrag, if i allocated 40% of my partition to a new ubuntu partition, will i lose those files in the 2nd half of my xp partition, therefore cause problems, or will it just push all the xp files together n leave a blank 50% of partition ready for linux | 17:45 |

| vise | rubystallion, /dev/<whatever> <whatever(mount_point)> auto defaults 0 1 | 17:48 |

| usr13 | Hustlers_23: Probably, the best solution for you is to add another HDD | 17:49 |
| datta | jrib: http://pastebin.com/m1841f910 | 17:49 |
| jrib | datta: it's already installed | 17:49 |
| datta | jrib: but it doesn't show that in the apperence menu | 17:50 |
| scunizi | propane: you have to be running linux. gmount runs inside of that as a service or program creating a virtual disk.. so yea.. you might be able to mount/boot the winXP iso but what will you do with it then?.. this program is really designed more for games that require cd access all the time.. Of course there are other applications but I don't think that you'll be able to actually use the win installer and make it work. | 17:50 |
| jrib | datta: click customize? | 17:50 |
| datta | ok thanks got it | 17:50 |
| propane | scunizi, you would be amazed at the games I play and how they have 0% linux support | 17:50 |
| rubystallion | vise: So, something like "/dev/sda1/media/windows" would do? | 17:50 |
| scunizi | propane: no doubt.. | 17:51 |
| vise | rubystallion, yep.. | 17:51 |
| specto | rubystallion: negatory, it is prefered that you mount items in a location such as /media/windows, not /dev/sda1/media/windows. | 17:51 |
| usr13 | Hustlers_23: Even though it is called "non-destructive partitioning", there is a risk involved, you may loose some or all of your data. | 17:51 |
| propane | Would Debian lenny work as well, scunizi? | 17:51 |
| erxin | When i go to Network Tools, TAB Devices, i do dropdown to eth0 , then it crashes, what causes this problem ? | 17:51 |
| grawity | specto: and he does exactly that | 17:51 |
| grawity | specto: your client must be removing Tab characters. | 17:52 |
| vise | specto, There is a space between them in rubystallion post... | 17:52 |
| specto | grawity: ah, thanks | 17:52 |
| usr13 | Hustlers_23: It doesn't happen very often, but... not to say it can not happen. | 17:52 |
| scunizi | propane: the situation would be the same.. | 17:52 |
| vise | rubystallion, Stick to the format i gave earlier exactly though... | 17:52 |
| specto | do you have to set irssi to use unicode? | 17:52 |
| propane | scunizi:So your saying I'm stuck on linux until I get a CD? | 17:52 |
| grawity | specto: I have, and it shows here as "" | 17:52 |
| rubystallion | vise: Okay, I will ;) | 17:52 |
| grawity | specto: well, as an I in white background. | 17:53 |
| specto | grawity: ya, that's what i saw, oh well, thanks | 17:53 |
| jrib | specto: there's some setting (don't recall) but i think it's enabled by default | 17:53 |
| Hustlers_23 | usr13, i will just wait till i got cash to get a new hdd, best bet lol | 17:53 |
| grawity | specto: anyway, ^I is the tab. | 17:53 |
| Hustlers_23 | benste,: me beinga linux newb, no idea how to follow those instructions on that link | 17:54 |
| scunizi | propane: yep.. unless someone in ##windows can create a win bootable usb to run the installer.. but the installer is going to balk at being on a usb anyway.. | 17:54 |
| scunizi | propane: and the installer will balk at trying to run in an already running environment | 17:54 |

| JoeM | last time before I go to bed... I added a new drive to an LVM, vgdisplay shows the correct size, but Ubuntu does not seem to detect it (shows old size), forums and google haven't found me anything yet | 17:57 |
| xanax` | hello | 17:58 |
| JoeM | I think I forgot a set... should I have formated the new drive as ext3 before adding it to the LVM? I think I should have, but did not | 17:58 |
| xanax` | how can I "jump" between words in Konsole (kde) with CTRL+arrows ? | 17:58 |
| usr13 | JoeM: Yes, you need to partiton and format the new drive before it will be possible to use it. | 17:58 |
| usr13 | xanax`: jump between words? | 17:59 |
| xanax` | yes | 17:59 |
| JoeM | usr13 bah, I was afraid of that... I'll boot back up into single user mode (normal doesn't want to let me remove the drive) when I install the new RAM tomorrow. Thanks. | 18:00 |
| xanax` | you hit CTRL+left arrow for example and the cursor moves quickly to the begining of a word to another | 18:00 |
| JoeM | usr13 each new machine I build I learn more... then I break it all, and learn even more! :P | 18:00 |

| scunizi | dyf: beyond this I'm stuck.. the 6600 is a well supported card.. on my system I typically use the driver direct from nvidia.. but you won't need that with your card. I'm not good at diagnosing why the driver isn't showing up as an option.. xorg.conf won't show much either. | 18:23 |
| viginbala | help me plz | 18:23 |
| Flare183 | !patience | viginbala | 18:23 |
| ubottu | viginbala: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 18:23 |

| resno | is it possible to use grep to search within text files for something? | 18:23 |
| lstarnes | resno: yes | 18:23 |
| lstarnes | resno: grep "thing to search for" filename | 18:24 |
| kpkeerthi | dyf:How did you install the driver? | 18:24 |
| specto | viginbala: ah, didn't see the question, start with a question next time :) | 18:24 |
| resno | lstarnes: problem is, it could be in several folders, so should i use -r? | 18:24 |
| lstarnes | resno: probab;y | 18:24 |
| viginbala | :( i feel sad | 18:24 |
| j03 | cat <filename> | grep "thing to search for" | 18:25 |
| scunizi | dyf: you could check /etc/X11/xorg.conf and see if a driver is listed in there.. doubt it but if there is one then you could change it to nv for the generic or nvidia for the propriatory one .. save and restart X to activate | 18:25 |
| lstarnes | resno: you might want to use -nHR, which will be recursive but will also show filenames and line numbers of matches | 18:25 |
| j03 | It's longer, but it's the same method as "normal" way of grepping stuff | 18:25 |
| lstarnes | viginbala: you probably missed some additional steps after that | 18:25 |
| j03 | So i guess it's easier to remember..? | 18:25 |
| resno | lstarnes: how in the world do you exit man? | 18:25 |
| tj83_ | vise, irfan_ works huh? | 18:25 |

| majikman | anyone know what the difference is between /usr/share/tomcat6/lib and /var/lib/tomcat6/lib? | 18:27 |
| tj83_ | irfan_, ok, watch your youtube... after it is finished loading , then go to /tmp and in that directory you will find a file like FlashXXXX and that is the video. just copy it elsewhere and rename it | 18:28 |
| viginbala | lstarnes aftr that not working.. | 18:28 |
| lstarnes | majikman: /var/lib is used for storing variable information | 18:28 |
| kpkeerthi | viginbala: type alsamixer in a terminal and ensure the channels (esp Master & PCM) are not muted | 18:28 |
| vise | tj83_, No.. i got bored.. :P | 18:28 |
| lstarnes | majikman: /usr/share is used for storing information that doesn't vary often | 18:28 |
| irfan_ | ok i will try | 18:28 |
| Flare183 | irfan_: Or you could use clive to pull it off youtube for you | 18:28 |
| kpkeerthi | viginbala: Press 'm' key to toggle mute. Arrow keys to naviagte and 'Esc' to quit. | 18:29 |
| majikman | lstarnes, that might be the standard definition of /var/lib but i don't think thats what applies for the tomcat package | 18:29 |
| tj83_ | vise, well its lovely.... especially for some other um.... more graphic sites as well... most flash videos in general. | 18:29 |
| vise | irfan_, rename it with an extension ".flv" so that, say vlc, can play it | 18:29 |
| viginbala | lstarnes, program currently not installed | 18:29 |
| irfan_ | thanks | 18:29 |
| tj83_ | vise, irfan_ i usually give it the .mpg extention | 18:29 |

| robertr994 | I have a question about processor usage. I just switched from windows 2003 where my processors ran about 5% peak but my memory usage was 1.5 gig normally. here is a screenshot of my Ubuntu 8.04 currently online http://www.kwtfstudio.com/1/Screenshot-System%20Monitor.png the website is www.kwtfstudio.com any way to get the processor usage down ? | 18:30 |

| frostburn | robertr994, what's running in the background? i cant see what processes are using the most amount of cpu | 18:31 |
| vise | robertr994, Thats fine in ubuntu | 18:31 |
| scunizi | robertr994: if nobody can answer here then try #ubuntu-server and #linux.. | 18:31 |
| kpkeerthi | viginbala: It might help if you tell me why& what were you trying to do when this happenned. | 18:32 |
| vise | robertr994, Your cpu fan though should run low unlike windows... which is cool! | 18:32 |
| tj83_ | robertr994, use "top" to see what process is using your cpu... but the windows task manager has a more buffered output than ubuntu's system monitor so your seeing a more real-time display.... 15% peaks at idle are common | 18:32 |
| j03 | Guest28413, You mean PLAY a DVD? | 18:32 |
| viginbala | kpkeerthi opened | 18:32 |
| robertr994 | ok, let me do a screenshot of processes | 18:32 |

| j03 | Guest28413, You can run sudo apt-get install vlc | 18:32 |

| viginbala | kpkeerthi audio now working , sorry cos i'm newbie of ubuntu | 18:33 |
| robertr994 | I got lost with the server edition | 18:33 |
| kpkeerthi | viginbala: what did you do? Just curious. | 18:34 |
| lstarnes | resno: which command did you use? | 18:34 |
| static^ | is the mail server suite built with cluster support? | 18:34 |
| tj83_ | Bullaro, that is not relevant information.... use lsusb or lspci to define your exact hardware and use that for your google search | 18:34 |
| resno | lstarnes: grep -nHR whatiamlookingfor | 18:34 |
| vise | robertr994, I dont think you should be paranoic about the cpu usage.. On my pc too, it is more.. but i think a major user is the system monitor itself.. So for top, it should be minimal.. | 18:34 |
| Guest28413 | look.i have been trying to find the best way to play a dvd on any of the ubuntu linux player.but it is not working | 18:34 |
| Guest28413 | help me out | 18:35 |

| viginbala | kpkeerthi front speaker sound fully down.. aftr increasing it's working but one problem every time sound very lower in listen song on headphone y? | 18:35 |
| robertr994 | ok cool, is it normal to swap from one processor to the other back and forth? looks like it is, wish windows did that | 18:35 |
| Guest28413 | i have done all of the looking | 18:36 |
| tj83_ | robertr994, yes and windows "should" | 18:36 |
| resno | lstarnes: what is "search-pattern"? | 18:36 |
| lstarnes | resno: the thing that you're searching for | 18:36 |
| blind|melon|chit | vise: That's probably because Windows 7 isn't supporting CPU usage accurately, I doubt there's any one moment in a Windows OS where there's 0% CPU usage, or very many OS' for that manner | 18:37 |
| resno | lstarnes: ah, i see | 18:37 |
| robertr994 | ok, well this is my first shot with Linux, Ubuntu is the answer | 18:37 |
| th0r | Guest28413: did you install libdvdcss? | 18:37 |
| frostburn | resno, grep "FileName" * | 18:37 |
| kpkeerthi | viginbala: In the volume control, click on Preferences. Let me know if you see 'Headphone' listed there | 18:37 |
| tj83_ | robertr994, yea linux is the best.... you should use peoples nicks when speaking so they can more easily see your post | 18:37 |
| resno | frostburn: i am looking for a line inside a python file | 18:37 |
| viginbala | kpkeerthi yeah shown also ticked headphone and ticked some line and master something | 18:38 |
| robertr994 | tj83 - ok, Im still a noob lol | 18:38 |
| wad | So I've got the latest ATI driver for my video card, compiz works, it's all great. Except: When I use a fancy screensaver (MatrixView), and I tap the spacebar, the system takes over a minute before prompting my for my password. Anyone else seen this? | 18:38 |
| viginbala | kpkeerthi master pcm and line in headphone ticked | 18:38 |
| kpkeerthi | viginbala: Ok. select it and close. in the main window of the volume control try adjust the volume level of headphone slider | 18:38 |
| frostburn | resno, grep "line you're looking for" *.py | 18:38 |
| Houba1986 | hey, im having trouble installing java 6, update 14. has anyone done this or would be able to assist me in doing it? | 18:39 |

| wad | Houba1986, what's the trouble? | 18:39 |
| alpha | please help me to share internet | 18:39 |
| guntbert | resno: like frostburn said but probably with -niHR (like lstarnes said) | 18:40 |

| tj83_ | robertr994, i use 9500GT | 18:40 |

| Houba1986 | wad: i downloaded the file, and extracted it into a folder, but on the desktop, now i dunno what to do next, theres no "setup" or "install" | 18:41 |
| wad | Houba1986, I think you just set it to be executable, then run it. | 18:41 |
| * wad looks | 18:41 | |
| resno | thanks frostburn istarnes | 18:41 |
| tj83_ | robertr994, go to www.adobe.com download the tar.gz file for flash | 18:41 |
| viginbala | kpkeerthi what is pcm? | 18:41 |
| netsurf3 | robertr994, easiest fix i found for firefox 64bit is one of two, install flash x64 alpha version and put up with crashing or install 32bit firefox | 18:41 |
| vise | blind|melon|chit, No.. trust me.. I had it 0% in xp, vista home basic, and 7 ... all 3.. may be the way I managed them was good :) I stopped all startup programs and useless stuff. But even with aero running, I could get the cpu usage down to 0% consistently. (with no intel speedstep engaged = 2ghz full clock) | 18:41 |
| tj83_ | robertr994, once you have that right click , extract here and open a terminal | 18:42 |
| Houba1986 | wad: im trying to follow these instructions, but they are very confusing... http://www.java.com/en/download/help/5000010500.xml#selfextracting | 18:42 |
| wad | Houba1986, from the command line, "chmod +x [filename]" | 18:42 |
| kpkeerthi | viginbala: if it is not listed ignore it | 18:42 |
| th0r | vise: a cpu cannot run at 0% | 18:42 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| Titan8990 | Houba1986, you should really use the package manager | 18:42 |
| wad | Houba1986, yeah, step 4 is what I said. | 18:42 |
| Houba1986 | wad: okay, so from the beginning, what would you suggest i do? | 18:42 |
| tj83_ | in the terminal cd to the extracted location and run the executable with ./executablefilename | 18:42 |
| tj83_ | in the terminal cd to the extracted location and run the executable with ./executablefilename robertr994 | 18:43 |
| wad | Houba1986, let's examine your assumptions first, before going further. | 18:43 |
| vise | th0r, It's rounded off.. It actually can be 0.4 | 18:43 |
| Houba1986 | wad: i downloaded the file... now what? | 18:43 |
| robertr994 | Netsurf, I was wondering about 32 bit firefox. its not really a huge deal because I dont use this box for anything but a server | 18:43 |
| wad | Houba1986, why do you need build 14? Why not just use the version that comes with Ubuntu? | 18:43 |
| robertr994 | but the video issue kills me, screen resolution is horrible | 18:43 |
| Houba1986 | wad: because some of the programs i am using now are saying i need to update to build 14 :( | 18:43 |
| wad | Houba1986, ah, that's a valid answer. :) | 18:44 |
| lwells | I am going to get a portable hard drive, I can partition it so I can back up data for win, os x and linux right? | 18:44 |
| frostburn | vise, th0r correct, by the process of monitoring cpu usage uses cpu, so it must be rounded down | 18:44 |
| netsurf3 | robertj, hmm well the nvidia should work with vesa if you just want 2D accell working there is a 2d NVIDIA too | 18:44 |
| william56 | during ubuntu installation, i increased my preexisting windows xp partition size, and grub's been hanging on the option to boot it ever since. i could mount it though, but i just tried to run fixmbr from the xp recovery console, and it seems to have destroyed my partition table. anyone know where i should go from here? | 18:44 |
| Houba1986 | wad: okay, so i have the downloaded file on my desktop, what would be the first thing to do? | 18:44 |
| tj83_ | frostburn, yes of course | 18:44 |
| scunizi | robertr994: did you install the nvidia driver supplied by ubuntu? from the hardware driver menu? | 18:44 |
| notplus_M | In Ubuntu is there any way to enforce a policy that requires A) A password be changed every 125 days or so, B) That the password meet a certain complexity requirement (minimum number of characters, uppercase, lowercase, numbers, special characters), and C) That the password must be different from the past X passwords the user has had? | 18:44 |
| wad | Houba1986, I usually use the command prompt to do stuff.... Can you run a terminal program? | 18:45 |
| vise | lwells, Yes | 18:45 |
| Houba1986 | wad: yes, i can | 18:45 |
| wad | Houba1986, okay, get in there, then "cd Desktop" | 18:45 |
| Houba1986 | ok | 18:45 |
| vise | lwells, But linux should support it as a storage device that can have volumes.. and not like a flash drive.. | 18:45 |
| robertr994 | scuinzi, nividia 9800gt on a amd64 isnt supported. its a install at your own risk deal | 18:45 |
| robertr994 | in Linux | 18:45 |
| Houba1986 | wad: done that | 18:46 |
| wad | Houba1986, then "chmod +x [whatever the file name is... start typing it, then hit TAB and it will finish it for you]" | 18:46 |
| blind|melon|chit | robertr994: Hopefully nVidia is working on that one then, that's one of their best cards | 18:46 |
| Titan8990 | Houba1986, you are doing this the wrong way... package manager, package manager, package manager | 18:46 |
| scunizi | robertr994: you can use the 64 bit driver supplied by nvidia.. | 18:46 |
| Titan8990 | Houba1986, thats whats its there for | 18:46 |
| william56 | to put things short, windows' fixmbr removed all of my partitions, and i'd like to restore it to the way ubuntu had it | 18:46 |
| vise | lwells, about which im not sure.. so try mounting and do an fdisk on it to see if you can make partitions.. btw guys can you make partitions on a simple thumb drive? | 18:46 |
| frostburn | vise, th0r correct, tj83_ if you're really interested, you can find the real cpu counter values http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb385772.aspx | 18:46 |
| Titan8990 | Houba1986, to provide an easy way of installing and maintaining packages | 18:46 |
| Houba1986 | Titan8990: package manager had update 13 | 18:46 |
| frostburn | vise, you can partition thumb drives | 18:46 |
| wad | Titan8990, but he said that he needed the latest version. Can you do that with the package manager? | 18:46 |
| rjmoore | hello!!!! | 18:47 |
| tj83_ | robertr994, oh your 64-bit? i dont suggest the 64-bit version unless you have more than 4gb ram..... just too much headache in my personal opinion. | 18:47 |
| scunizi | robertr994: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_185.18.14.html .. there is a trick to installing it though. | 18:47 |
| Titan8990 | wad, with a third part repo, if available | 18:47 |
| lwells | vise: I already have partitioned a flash drive | 18:47 |
| wad | Titan8990, in my (limited) experience, the stuff from the package managers is always a few versions behind. | 18:47 |
| vise | frostburn, Hmm.. cool.. i should try | 18:47 |
| Titan8990 | wad, yes, for reasons of stability | 18:47 |
| lwells | vise: I have it for windows and linux | 18:47 |
| vise | lwells, Then the hard disk won't be different I am sure.. | 18:47 |
| wad | Titan8990, yeah, I know why. :) | 18:47 |
| rjmoore | i would like to take a survey.............."what is the best desktop environment?" | 18:47 |
| Titan8990 | wad, and the time it takes to build the packages, test them, and add the time to add to repo | 18:47 |
| vise | rjmoore, gnome | 18:48 |
| tj83_ | rjmoore, gnome had my vote | 18:48 |
| jbbarnes | Can anyone help me add a GUI to Ubuntu Server 8.04 that is console only? (I want to install something lightweight like icewin or fluxbox) Thanks. | 18:48 |
| robertr994 | scunizi how would I install that, I actually have that on my desktop | 18:48 |
| frostburn | !best rjmoore | 18:48 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about best rjmoore | 18:48 |
| wad | rjmoore, NextStep | 18:48 |
| frostburn | !best |rjmoore | 18:48 |
| ubottu | rjmoore: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 18:48 |
| vise | rjmoore, Though you might be told to go to ubuntu-offtopic.. ;) | 18:48 |
| william56 | anyone know how i can restore lost partition records? | 18:48 |
| jbbarnes | I have already used apt-get to install icewin and xinit | 18:48 |
| wad | rjmoore, best usually means "best supported" or "most popular". For that, just a default ubuntu install is best. | 18:49 |
| scunizi | robertr994: the first thing is to deactivate the current running nvidia driver from hardware drivers.. then open synaptic and uninstall the nvidia bits listed that are installed.. | 18:49 |
| Houba1986 | wad: i tried package manager, and it doesn't have the latest update | 18:49 |
| robertr994 | ok | 18:49 |
| vise | william56, imho, that is fairly tough.. you could try studying the boot sectors of ext partitions and other file system partitions and try to do a manual search... there are hardly any tools that would be reliable in such a scenario... | 18:49 |
| vs4vijay | hi | 18:49 |
| vs4vijay | its me vijay from india | 18:50 |
| wad | Houba1986, yeah, I figured. Talk to Titan8990 about that, I guess. I don't go that route. I just install it myself. (Of course, I'm a developer who codes with Java.) | 18:50 |
| specto | !hi | vs4vijay | 18:50 |
| ubottu | vs4vijay: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 18:50 |

| Houba1986 | wad: okay, so after i've done the chmod, then what? | 18:51 |
| vs4vijay | any body from india | 18:51 |
| wad | Houba1986, type "./ " then the name of the file. Press ENTER. | 18:51 |

| Lucasmri | hi | 18:51 |
| vs4vijay | whats ur name bro vise | 18:51 |
| Lucasmri | my ubuntu is completly fucked :/ | 18:52 |
| rjmoore | thanks for the info ubottu::: however this IS a SUPPORT channel and i asked because i wanted information from more experienced users than i , while i play with different versions. is was a simple question and it tadnt take up much of any ones time. | 18:52 |
| vs4vijay | i need helpin Ettercap-NG | 18:52 |
| vise | vs4vijay, Not here.. | 18:52 |
| robertr994 | scunizi thanks I will try that tonight when everyone is sleeping lol | 18:52 |
| tj83_ | !language > Lucasmri | 18:52 |
| ubottu | Lucasmri, please see my private message | 18:52 |
| Houba1986 | wad: okay, that created a folder on the desktop called jre1.6.0_14 | 18:52 |
| vise | jbbarnes, Thats a pain in the uhm... | 18:52 |
| Lucasmri | ok sorry | 18:52 |
| scunizi | robertr994: you'll have to remember that by installing the driver you'll have to go through the reinstall process for each kernel upgrade.. | 18:52 |
| jbbarnes | vise: Really? I thought I did it a few years ago, but don't remember how. | 18:52 |
| vs4vijay | gotta go.......... | 18:53 |
| vs4vijay | bye | 18:53 |
| Houba1986 | wad: what should i do with this folder that was created? | 18:53 |
| rjmoore | does anyone have a dell mini9?? | 18:53 |
| vise | jbbarnes, Well i tried to install the simplest xfce once.. but whoa! that was tough! | 18:53 |
| scunizi | robertr994: also if you use "Update" to go from one release to the next you'll want to uninstall it first. | 18:53 |
| vise | jbbarnes, I got what they call a dependency chain reaction... | 18:53 |
| lionstone | hi, my audio abruptly stopped working after a reboot. now all i hear is crackling. works fine when i boot into vista. running 9.4 64-bit on a lenovo t400 thinkpad. can anyone advise? | 18:53 |
| jbbarnes | vise, I think the main problem is X support. I think I have the icewin part installed. | 18:53 |
| danl | in apache, what would cause the apache2.conf not to load the php5.conf with this line: Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf | 18:53 |
| jbbarnes | vise, But you did it? Good for you. | 18:54 |
| guntbert | danl: ask in #httpd please | 18:54 |
| rjmoore | lionstone :: did you just run an update or do you have updates to for automatic installation?? | 18:54 |
| wad | Houba1986, well, the Java program is installed there. You can move it elsewhere, if you like. Those instructions you have are good. | 18:54 |
| vise | jbbarnes, lol no! i couldn't.. I put in all the dependencies.. but ultimately the code didn't compile with undefined references.. | 18:54 |
| FoolishOwl | I'm trying to plan a backup, in which I back up most of /home to DVDs. Does anyone have experience with this? | 18:54 |
| robertr994 | Ive been telling everyone about Ubuntu, this system and the support is MUCH better than windows | 18:54 |
| danl | guntbert, ok... was asking here because i just installed ubuntu and expected it to work :-/ | 18:54 |
| robertr994 | danl, new install? | 18:55 |
| wad | Houba1986, Linux isn't like windows. If you don't want the program anymore that you installed manually like this, you don't have to run an "uninstall" thiny. Just delete the directory. | 18:55 |
| lionstone | rjmore: nope- no updates. it was a reboot. i booted into vista, then the next time i booted into ubuntu it was messed up. but if i boot back into vista it works fine. worth mentioning that it only broke after vista froze and i didnt let it shutdown normally | 18:55 |
| vise | wad, Linux install puts binaries/libs everywhere in your system.. It's not localised... | 18:55 |
| danl | robertj, vm install on my vps... it didn't have apache or php so I had to install them via aptitude (installed apache2, php5 and php5mod) apache shows that the php5 module is loaded, but it is ignoring the config for some reason | 18:56 |
| octavinhus | ok | 18:56 |
| vise | wad, It can't be done by just deleting the directory | 18:56 |
| robertr994 | danl you have my sql also? | 18:56 |
| jbbarnes | Vise: I remember now. I added fluxbox to a consol Suse server. I think it was fairly easy. I was hoping the superior apt in Ubuntu would work out all the dependency issues for me. I guess not. :-( | 18:56 |
| danl | robertj, no | 18:56 |
| Rocko | Where can I set an Workgroup name on my ubuntu desktop edition, so I am able to connect win and linux pc's into a network? | 18:56 |
| wad | vise, he installed Java by running the self-extracting binary file. It think it just puts the binaries under the directory. | 18:56 |
| rjmoore | hummm.. sounds like vista corrupted your linux | 18:56 |
| danl | er | 18:56 |
| danl | robertr994, no | 18:56 |
| majikman | what command do i want to use to get a full list of available packages? | 18:56 |
| guntbert | !lamp | danl did you see: | 18:57 |
| ubottu | danl did you see:: 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+) | 18:57 |
| th0r | jbbarnes: you should be able to just install xubuntu desktop to get all of xfce if you can settle for that | 18:57 |
| william56 | vise: i'm not sure what sizes i used for the different partitions it has, but i'd like to do anything at my disposal to recover these partitions | 18:57 |
| vise | wad, Only if he ran it from there... If he could run the files from anywhere, then they were placed in some global binary location.. like /bin, /usr/bin or less likely /sbin | 18:57 |
| robertr994 | danl I had the same issue, when I set up, uninstall php5 and purge, then reinstall php5 , restart apache | 18:57 |
| rjmoore | windows does have a tendency to be very invasive of other partitions, especially on the same physical disk. | 18:57 |
| jbbarnes | thor: Thanks. Doesn't that install all the xfce apps as well? I was hoping to keep it as light as possible. | 18:57 |
| vise | william56, I can roughly tell you at which sector the first partition should be located.. But locating other partitions is fairly tough... | 18:58 |
| Guest682 | is it possible to install ubuntu inside wiNDows ? | 18:58 |
| danl | robertr994, ok will try that | 18:58 |
| rjmoore | guest | 18:58 |
| rjmoore | yes | 18:58 |
| danl | guntbert, I don't need mysql... no need to insall it | 18:58 |
| Rocko | Guest682: sure, try 'wubi' | 18:58 |
| rjmoore | use vmware | 18:58 |
| th0r | jbbarnes: yes it does. agreed you don't need them for a server. | 18:58 |
| rjmoore | or something like it | 18:58 |
| robertr994 | shouldnt take but a few minutes, instantly fixed mine | 18:58 |
| specto | !tab > rjmoore | 18:58 |
| ubottu | rjmoore, please see my private message | 18:58 |
| wad | vise: I think it just puts the binaries in there too. I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure. | 18:58 |
| jbbarnes | th0r: But you are right. I think that is a really automated and easy way to do it. | 18:58 |
| th0r | jbbarnes: you can always go back and uninstall what you don't want | 18:59 |
| william56 | well, the first partition is ntfs undoubtedly. would it take long to get to the next one? i know the size in megabytes that i used for that one, and the one after that is ext3 | 18:59 |
| jbbarnes | th0r: That's true. | 18:59 |
| mowglee | Guest682 yeah wubi is good - only tried it for the first time recently. I'd say it's nearly impossible to get wrong | 18:59 |
| specto | !tab > william56 | 18:59 |
| ubottu | william56, please see my private message | 18:59 |
| rjmoore | is ubottu a bot??? | 18:59 |
| william56 | rjmoore: yes | 19:00 |
| wad | rjmoore, ask it. | 19:00 |
| wad | ubottu, are you a bot? | 19:00 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about are you a bot? | 19:00 |
| * wad snickers | 19:00 | |
| rjmoore | hum>>> | 19:00 |
| rjmoore | how does this tab thing work??? | 19:00 |
| specto | !msgbot | rjmoore | 19:00 |
| ubottu | rjmoore: Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". | 19:00 |
| robertr994 | thanks everyone for the help, if about 50 of you want to visit and load test www.kwtfstudio.com that would be very cool. | 19:00 |
| rjmoore | i just did didnt i?? | 19:00 |
| FoolishOwl | Does anyone have experience using DVDs for backups? | 19:00 |
| mowglee | ubbotu command for listing installed packages? | 19:00 |
| aboyz | I know i can execute ipconfig to find out my IP. Is there a way to do it when i ssh into the box it will says my IP is xxx.xxx.xxx . Kinda like /etc/motd when you login it show the motd. How do I output what IP is on the box everytime? the reason I'm doing this because it is using DHCP. thanks.. | 19:01 |
| mowglee | Worth a try :) | 19:01 |
| jbbarnes | aboyz: ifconfig | 19:01 |
| wad | FoolishOwl, I do. I recommend against it. | 19:01 |
| vise | william56, The first partition should be located at the 32nd or the 64th sector starting from the zeroth sector of your hard disk. From that you should decode the start offset as 512 * 32 or 512 * 64.. You can then mount it and read files.. But for ext3, it depends on how big your first partition is. So that's tough. If you can compute in a similar way, way to go! | 19:01 |

| mowglee | ubbottu command for listing installed packages? | 19:01 |
| FoolishOwl | wad, why? | 19:01 |
| danl | whoa... man isn't installed... guess that would shrink an install | 19:01 |
| th0r | aboyz: if it is using dhcp how are you getting ssh to work? | 19:01 |
| geboy | guys, i'm sorry if its off the topic, but does anyone here ever uses the squidNT bfore? and if you do, can you tellme the performace of it compared to the one running on ubuntu? | 19:01 |
| wad | FoolishOwl, DVDs are notoriously unreliable, with huge variations in shelf life. | 19:01 |
| mowglee | ubottu command for listing installed packages? | 19:02 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:02 |
| aboyz | thor. cuz i'm loggin locallly through VMWARE :) | 19:02 |
| scunizi | aboyz: you need the ip to log in via ssh.. so how will you know what the ip is before loggingg in? | 19:02 |
| FoolishOwl | mowglee, use Synaptic Package Manager. There's an option to list installed packages. | 19:02 |
| specto | !msgbot | mowglee | 19:02 |
| ubottu | mowglee: Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". | 19:02 |
| vise | william56, sorry, assuming your first sector is zero, it should be 31st and 63rd | 19:02 |
| mowglee | So now you know I can't type ubottu | 19:02 |
| aboyz | i'm logging in locally through VMWARE... | 19:02 |
| wad | FoolishOwl, how much data needs to be backed up? | 19:02 |
| FoolishOwl | wad, about 40 gigabytes. | 19:02 |
| william56 | okay, so, vise, will i be able to find out anything easily about the size of the first partition from knowing just where it starts? as i said, it's ntfs, undoubtedly | 19:02 |
| mowglee | FoolishOwl, I know - well I use Crunnchbang but I was learning how to use the bot :) | 19:02 |
| wad | FoolishOwl, how critical is it that the data actually be backed up? | 19:03 |
| th0r | aboyz: if you are on the box, then the ip is the same as the vm host. | 19:03 |
| specto | aboyz: unless you are bridging and not natting. | 19:03 |
| william56 | vise: and how can i just view the data from that far into the drive..? | 19:03 |
| jroes | is automounting usb sticks not default in ubuntu 9? | 19:03 |
| FoolishOwl | wad, these are personal files. The biggest priority are music files, which is a bit more than half of that. | 19:03 |
| vise | william56, Yes.. But the problem is, there is an unallocated space between two partitions, the size of which may be anything... So that's where you are in a pickle.. You'll have to study on how to do that.. (go for studying the structure of ext3 and all..) | 19:03 |
| specto | jroes: it is in the default ubuntu desktop install | 19:03 |
| jroes | hm, guess my usb stick is gone | 19:04 |
| jroes | there goes my privkey :| | 19:04 |
| wad | FoolishOwl, your personal stuff will change regularly. I recommend getting a little external USB hard drive. | 19:04 |
| william56 | vise: if i can restore from just my first partition, i'd be thrilled to do that and then repartition | 19:04 |
| specto | jroes: something else could have gone wrong, wrong type of partition etc | 19:04 |
| jbbarnes | It is possible to have your IRC filter out all the "xxxxuser has quit" type messages? I usually use xchat or kvirc. | 19:04 |
| specto | jroes: plug it in, the in the terminal type in: tail | dmesg | 19:05 |
| FoolishOwl | The stuff with which I'm most concerned doesn't change *that* frequently. | 19:05 |
| FoolishOwl | And I can't afford an external drive right now. | 19:05 |
| hypn0 | jbbarnes, right click on channel>settings for xchat | 19:06 |
| vise | william56, To be sure, you may search on the net for the likely first sector of the first partition... Then you can do a "sudo mount -o loop,offset=<byte offset into the disk> <device> <location>" to check if its got an ntfs (which should be detected by the kernel)... | 19:06 |
| FoolishOwl | My working plan was to use either tar or cpio to back up to a temporary archive, use split to make disk-sized pieces, then burn them to DVDs. | 19:06 |
| specto | jbbarnes: http://clintecker.com/disable-irc-msgs.html | 19:06 |
| jbbarnes | hypn0: Perfect. Thanks! | 19:06 |
| jbbarnes | specto: Thanks. | 19:07 |
| vise | specto, dmesg | tail ? | 19:07 |
| FoolishOwl | However, I don't really need the files compressed, so some sort of simple copy to disk would work better -- except I'd need to make sure it copied everything. | 19:07 |
| specto | vise: yar, whoops | 19:07 |
| wad | FoolishOwl, don't compress them. | 19:08 |
| specto | jroes: dmesg | tail, not tail | dmesg | 19:08 |

| wad | FoolishOwl, when a piece of the DVD goes bad, you want to be able to salvage something. | 19:08 |
| wad | FoolishOwl, and buy the expensive DVDs. | 19:08 |

| william56 | vise: an incorrect mount like you mentioned won't damage any data, will it? | 19:09 |
| vise | william56, Nope.. It just won't detect the file system | 19:09 |
| wad | FoolishOwl, and do a read of the whole DVD, on a different DVD drive, right after you burn it. | 19:09 |
| william56 | cool. thanks, vise | 19:09 |
| jroes | sounds like my usb stick is fried :| | 19:09 |
| wad | FoolishOwl, for extra safety, make a duplicate backup. | 19:10 |
| jroes | shoulda never let it run through the washer and dryer, for the second time | 19:10 |
| FoolishOwl | Would fsck do for checking DVDs? | 19:10 |
| lenswipe | hey guys | 19:10 |

| Houba1986 | wad: it's a java plugin package or firefox plugin package? | 19:15 |
| william56 | okay, vise, some quick googling mentioned testdisk, which i used, and it's detecting the actual partition table, instead of whatever trash fixmbr filled it up with. i think this should | 19:15 |
| william56 | this should be all i need to repair my hard drive | 19:15 |
| wad | Houba1986, a firefox one, I think. | 19:15 |

| william56 | vise: testdisk just informed me that i should reboot.. would you assume that it will work despite my having installed it on a livedisk? | 19:17 |
| vise | william56, Wait.. it's your external hard drive whoz partition table is corrupted right? | 19:19 |

| joeman1 | yea specto, well do you recommend that or just using something like vmworkstation | 19:21 |

| kuzaimi | i dont know how to tell u what is my problem | 19:25 |
| specto | joeman1: I would dive into wine if you can find a good howto for the specific app you want to use, otherwise it may be easier to use a virtual machine | 19:25 |
| vise | nokkasiili, How did you delete it? | 19:25 |

| vise | Houba1986, Yeah.. why? | 19:27 |
| specto | TwoD: sounds like a bios problem, what kind of computer are you trying to install it on? desktop laptop, old new? | 19:27 |
| Houba1986 | vise: k, thing is, i need to link jave 6 update 14 to firefox, and i gotta make the link inside the usr/lib/firefox/plugin directory, but its not letting me do it | 19:27 |

| joeman1 | also is vmworkstation free cause i know on windows it is not | 19:28 |
| vise | Houba1986, use sudo before your command at terminal.. | 19:28 |
| jrib | Houba1986: use ~/.mozilla/plugins/ but java is in the repositories and you shouldn't need to do any of this... | 19:28 |
| TwoD | the bug is documented on launchpad, but I can't find a workaround | 19:28 |

| diddy | My x server is not listening to TCp requests. What could be the reason for that? | 19:30 |

| vise | bbye | 19:30 |
| DPic | TwoD, thanks, but i'm just looking to fix this display problem | 19:30 |
| TwoD | are you doing it while logged into x? | 19:31 |
| DPic | TwoD, yeah | 19:31 |
| joeman1 | specto can you transfer me any programs you would recommend | 19:31 |
| danl | robertr994, that did the trick | 19:31 |
| danl | thanks | 19:32 |
| TwoD | DPic: try to do it logged out of X | 19:32 |
| specto | joeman1: no, you must download them on the internet | 19:32 |

| DPic | TwoD, i tried it logged in and restarting didn't work, and i followed the instructions on the wiki to do it logged out of X and it still didn't work | 19:32 |
| joeman1 | what is a good irc channel for transferring file | 19:33 |
| joeman1 | exchanging files | 19:33 |
| TwoD | maybe it's using the wrong display driver. did you check that was ok? | 19:33 |
| TwoD | or you using a generic driver? | 19:34 |
| DPic | TwoD, generic. max resolution is like 800 by 600 when it needs to be like 1024 by 768 or something | 19:34 |
| joeman1 | what channel is good for exchanging files | 19:34 |
| DPic | so the screen has black bars on the bottom and on the right | 19:35 |
| TwoD | it's been awhile since i've looked at generic drivers. whats the driver named you're using? | 19:36 |
| Guest488 | i used the wubi installer and rebooted then .. nothing .. back to windows | 19:37 |
| DPic | TwoD, sorry, lemme boot up the machine | 19:37 |
| DPic | how can i determine the driver? | 19:37 |
| specto | Guest488: wubi should have added a boot entry to boot.ini, so when you start up, you should have 30 sec to choose windows or ubuntu | 19:38 |
| mbeierl1 | anyone else see this: Attempt to run acroread - get the following error: Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module": /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/modules/libcanberra-gtk-module.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 - acroread fails to start? | 19:38 |
| TwoD | you might be able to use a different generic drivef | 19:38 |
| Guest488 | specto it hasnt | 19:38 |
| TwoD | normally, if you run the wizard, you can change the driver if thats not the best one | 19:38 |
| linxeh | mbeierl1: sounds like a 32/64bit issue maybe ? | 19:38 |
| william56 | okay, vise, now the partitions are showing in /dev/sdax, and i can mount them and view their contents, but gparted reports the drive as being unpartitioned, and they aren't automatically mounting in the ubuntu live cd like they were.. you have any ideas? | 19:39 |
| specto | Guest488: if you are on windows, go to run, type in msconfig, go to the boot.ini tab, check if there are two entries below [operating systems] | 19:39 |
| majikman | ugh... why in the world did the ubuntu developers make the tomcat errors go into syslog? | 19:39 |
| specto | majikman: because it's fun | 19:39 |
| majikman | how is that beneficial? | 19:39 |
| mbeierl1 | linxeh: yes it does, but I have no idea what pkg is installed that would provide 32 bit libs. I've tried re-installing acroread :( | 19:39 |
| Guest488 | specto there is not boot.ini tab do you know where i can find it inside windows? | 19:40 |

| ashii | happy: how do i make it automount? | 19:41 |
| specto | Guest488: er. | 19:41 |
| happy | ashii: you need to edit fstab | 19:41 |
| TwoD | there needs to be profiles of popular desktops with scripts to download so configuring ubuntu isn't a chore | 19:41 |

| majikman | i wish the ubuntu developers would just come up with the bright idea to make all my applications log all errors into syslog | 19:41 |
| TwoD | i wonder if that has been brought up | 19:41 |
| DPic | TwoD, alright so how do i run the wizard then? | 19:41 |

| Guest488 | yeah | 19:41 |

| FloodBot1 | lenswipe: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 19:42 |
| lenswipe | how i would go about this? | 19:43 |
| specto | Guest488: it sounds like it didn't finish running the install than. some space should be taken up | 19:43 |
| PsynoKhi0 | TwoD: actually if more OEM shipped Ubuntu preinstalled that would ALSO solve that "issuE" | 19:43 |
| Guest488 | specto it said it did | 19:43 |
| lenswipe | can someone help me with rsync backup? | 19:43 |
| happy | lenswipe: I highly suggest the next time you ask for help. Ask it all on one line | 19:43 |

| lenswipe | happy: i have been doing and my one line help request is being swallowed up in everything else | 19:44 |
| lenswipe | happy would rsync -a --delete source/ destination/ | 19:44 |
| TwoD | DPic: change the driver to something like SXVGA | 19:44 |
| lenswipe | be the correct command for a home dir backup? | 19:44 |
| DPic | TwoD, how? | 19:44 |
| codered1444 | and i was wondering if i can use a recovery disk to install vista | 19:44 |
| linxeh | lenswipe: no it isnt. your multiline request is impossible to follow | 19:44 |
| TwoD | DPic: when you run the wizard, does it give you the option to change the driver? | 19:44 |
| linxeh | lenswipe: and yes, it could be. it depends what you want to do. | 19:45 |
| DPic | TwoD, howw do i run the wizard | 19:45 |
| happy | lenswipe: I truly do not know. are you trying to keep a current backup or archive it? | 19:45 |
| happy | lenswipe: if that runs after you deleted data you shouldn | 19:45 |
| happy | lenswipe: shouldn't have | 19:45 |
| lenswipe | happy: i want to run an incremental every night at 20 past 1 and in crontab -e i have rsync -a --delete /home/ /media/"One Toutch Maxtor III" | 19:45 |

| lenswipe | happy: is that gonna work out? | 19:46 |
| happy | lenswipe: that I do not believe is an incremental backup. Also, you should do an incremental backup each day and a full backup each week | 19:46 |

| happy | lenswipe: you need to keep each backup, and restoring it takes forever since it needs to do each incremental backup | 19:48 |
| libtech | PsynoKhi0: yes i think so. | 19:48 |
| specto | lenswipe: I use rsnapshots for mine, but I don't have much data. | 19:48 |
| lenswipe | happy: well if i was to just simply copy /home to an external HDD would that do any harm? | 19:48 |
| happy | lenswipe: the only issue with that is that you had the --delete in there | 19:49 |
| PsynoKhi0 | libtech: Ubuntu Jaunty? | 19:49 |
| happy | lenswipe: if you are ONLY afraid of complete hard drive falure, then that would be fine | 19:49 |
| libtech | PsynoKhi0: yeah jaunty. this is what it says with lspci: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics | 19:50 |
| lenswipe | happy: yeah the -delete was aparently to delete files in the destination if they were deleted in the original | 19:50 |
| happy | lenswipe: that is true | 19:50 |
| lenswipe | happy: so i would have to use rsync to properly preserve file ownership and permissions?? | 19:50 |

| Dave312 | heroid: IceWM is a lightweight window manager. It's ugly but it works. Use sudo apt-get install icewm | 19:53 |
| jrib | majikman: #ubuntu-motu I guess | 19:53 |
| PsynoKhi0 | libtech: there are some suggested fixes for this, do a web search on "intel jaunty", be warned that it's still on the experimental side | 19:53 |
| libtech | PsynoKhi0: ill check it out, thanks | 19:54 |
| Joker_-_ | happy: samba has an integrated active directory system? Wow, ill check that out. | 19:54 |
| happy | Joker_-_: of course it does! it is made to work with all windows networking, including buisness | 19:54 |
| Joker_-_ | happy: thanks for pointing that out. I'm reading on that right now. | 19:55 |
| PsynoKhi0 | libtech: yw | 19:55 |
| happy | Joker_-_: I even think samba can use ldap... but I don't know much about it | 19:55 |
| noiz777 | maxo, I seem to have the same problem but I'm runing Ubuntu in vitualbox, I'm not sure if it is virtualbox's problem or ubuntu's | 19:55 |
| losher | my simple, stupid gnome question: can I arrange that when I move the mouse past the edge of the screen, it switches to the next workspace? | 19:56 |
| maxo | noiz777: ubuntu 9.04 seems to be plagued with problems, it's a disappointing release | 19:56 |
| * D3f0 is away: Ausente por ahora | 19:56 | |
| heroid | ok does icewm use nautilus or what filebrowser? | 19:56 |
| jrib | !away > D3f0 | 19:56 |
| ubottu | D3f0, please see my private message | 19:56 |
| TwoD | can someone look at this bug in launchpad and tell me where to go for a fix? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/292493 | 19:56 |
| jrib | heroid: whatever you want | 19:56 |
| bastidrazor | maxo, speak for yourself. | 19:56 |
| jrib | TwoD: that is where you go, you read the comments | 19:56 |
| TwoD | It seems like a very common problem | 19:56 |
| maxo | bastidrazor: ? | 19:56 |
| TwoD | there is not fix for it | 19:56 |
| lenswipe | happy: ive been away for my tea, did you say anything? | 19:56 |
| jrib | TwoD: ok | 19:57 |
| TwoD | *no | 19:57 |
| TwoD | at least I can't find it | 19:57 |
| Dave312 | heroid: IceWM can use Nautilus. | 19:57 |
| heroid | ok because i tryed xubuntu | 19:57 |
| jrib | TwoD: one doesn't necessarily exist | 19:57 |
| ashii | ./lastlog happy :p | 19:57 |
| happy | ashii: huh? | 19:57 |
| Donedeez | Hello, can anybody help me with the "ls -l" command in ubuntu? | 19:57 |
| bastidrazor | maxo, you may be disappointed but to generalize that the release disappointing is a bit of a stretch | 19:57 |
| TwoD | how about a workaround? :) | 19:57 |
| heroid | ok | 19:57 |
| noiz777 | maxo: really? oh that is so disapointing...i am running the nettop remix on my msi and seem to have no problem at all, but on the virtual machine it just dies...kubuntu 9.04 didnt have this problem on me | 19:57 |
| ashii | oops | 19:57 |
| jrib | !ask | Donedeez | 19:57 |
| ubottu | Donedeez: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 19:57 |
| heroid | because i have another ntfs drive | 19:57 |
| ashii | happy: sorry :) | 19:57 |
| heroid | and i use this pc to play music | 19:58 |
| Dave312 | Donedeez: What's the issue? | 19:58 |
| heroid | for my restaurant | 19:58 |
| losher | maxo: noiz777: bastidrazor: I second maxo's opinion of 9.04 i.e. Not worth the trouble. Stick to 8.0.4 LTS.... | 19:58 |
| Donedeez | Dave312: I type ls -l and it shows up.. i just need help understanding the numbers | 19:58 |
| maxo | bastidrazor: the new graphics system, for example, means that I can't even watch a video because it doesn't work properly with intel graphic cards. It shouldn't have been implemented into a general release until it was ready | 19:58 |
| jrib | Donedeez: what numbers... | 19:58 |
| Ahadiel | Donedeez, those are the permissions for each file | 19:58 |
| maxo | and I seem to get memory leaks every day and forced to reboot the system manually | 19:59 |
| Donedeez | What do the numbers represent after the names.... for example it says "root root 4096" | 19:59 |
| surferdude | Does anyone here have experience running ubuntu server in raid 1? | 19:59 |
| maxo | losher: install compiz config manager, might let you set this | 19:59 |
| Ahadiel | Donedeez, oh, those numbers | 19:59 |
| Ahadiel | Donedeez, file size | 19:59 |
| losher | maxo: noiz777: bastidrazor: not to mention the endless sound problems that keep coming up here... | 20:00 |
| maxo | losher: * I mean the workspace thing | 20:00 |
| specto | surferdude: raid 1 hardware or software? | 20:00 |
| jbbarnes | surferdude: I have done that a few times. | 20:00 |
| jrib | Donedeez: size | 20:00 |
| losher | maxo: understood. thanks... | 20:00 |
| Donedeez | jrib and Ahadiel, what about the numbers before.... example "2 root root 4096" | 20:00 |
| jrib | Donedeez: number of hard links | 20:00 |
| surferdude | I'm trying to decide whether I should let Ubuntu set it up or get a seperate raid controller | 20:00 |
| Guest064 | i had to change my boot.iini file and don't know the info to boot in the boot.ini for ubuntu to boot i used wuni | 20:00 |
| Guest064 | wubi | 20:00 |
| codered1444 | can i use a vista recovery disk to install it on vbox | 20:01 |
| bastidrazor | losher, all three of my boxes with completely different hardware have zero issues on 9.04 installs. | 20:01 |
| jbbarnes | surferdude: software RAID is easy to set up and good performance. | 20:01 |
| jbbarnes | surferdude: and no drivers to hunt down and struggle with. | 20:01 |
| maxo | my physical memory is 994.4MB and the swap is 745MB, should this be enough? | 20:01 |
| === magdalena is now known as Guest6447 | ||
| thiebaude | losher, no problems with 9.04, but the xorg.conf file is modified for my intel graphics card | 20:01 |
| Donedeez | jrib, Ahadiel, Thanks! | 20:01 |
| specto | surferdude: seperate can be WAY better, but raid 1 is not very cpu intensive. | 20:01 |
| Ahadiel | maxo, Unless you want to suspend, it's fine | 20:01 |
| heroid | and i have another problem with my main pc | 20:01 |
| heroid | i can not hibernate | 20:01 |
| torgrimt | maxo: that really depends on what you want to run ;) | 20:02 |
| maxo | thiebaude: how did you configure it? | 20:02 |
| happy | surferdude: depends. Geeks tend to use software raid. Real production environments use hardware | 20:02 |
| Dave312 | heroid: Do you have a swap partition? | 20:02 |
| maxo | torgrimt: I mainly use firefox and evolution, and it still ends up locking up | 20:02 |
| heroid | since i changed my motherboard and changed to ubuntu 9.,04 | 20:02 |
| surferdude | Ok... how easy is it to recover in the event of a failure | 20:02 |
| thiebaude | maxo sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 20:02 |
| torgrimt | maxo: dmesg should tell you if its killing prosesses because you are running out of memory | 20:02 |
| surferdude | the bios sees the drives seperately | 20:02 |
| maxo | thiebaude: what did you put in the file? | 20:02 |
| maxo | torgrimt: I don't think it even has enough memory at that point to be able to kill processes | 20:03 |
| thiebaude | maxo, in the device section i added Options "DRI" "off" and saved it | 20:03 |
| heroid | yes i have a 2 GB swap | 20:03 |
| jbbarnes | surferdude: Have you set up software RAID before? | 20:03 |
| heroid | and still can not hibernate through | 20:03 |
| thiebaude | maxo, it works everytime, if i didn't have it x freezes | 20:03 |
| heroid | what can be the problem | 20:03 |
| === rackerslacker is now known as FFEMTcJ | ||
| jon5000 | hi, I was trying to create a folder in my home directory in intrepid, and it said i did not have authorization. this is the first time this has happened, and i am the only user of the computer so i should have all priveledges. why might this have changed and how can i fix it? | 20:03 |
| noiz777 | torgrimt: maxo: i agree, you cant even move the mouse at that point or press any key | 20:03 |
| PaulM | so... I installed a package from one repo, and now I'd like to replace (upgrade) that package with one from a different one (neither the official sources). Is there any easy way to do this without removing then reinstalling? | 20:03 |
| surferdude | I haven't set it up before but from what I've read its pretty straightforward | 20:03 |
| losher | bastidrazor: Your experience doesn't seem to be universal. I can't tell if there's something about 9.04 that snares newbies, or what the proportion of complaints is, just that I do see the complaints here... | 20:03 |
| rappr | I've noticed that when I do not have a CD in the drive my average load goes up over 1.0 even when idle. If I mount a CD the load average goes down. Any suggestions? | 20:04 |
| Guest064 | i had to change my boot.iini file and don't know the info to boot in the boot.ini for ubuntu to boot i used wuni | 20:04 |
| Ahadiel | jon5000, technically there are 2 users: yourself and root. | 20:04 |
| diddy | Why would someone want to run remote x sessions? Only if the remote machine has more CPU power than the own one? I can not think of a useful application. | 20:04 |
| jbbarnes | surferdude: Yes, it's a two-step process. Create the RAID device (joining the two physical disks) then create your volumes inside it. | 20:04 |
| Ahadiel | jon5000, try an ls -l on your home | 20:04 |
| heroid | i have 2 GB swap and i can not hibernate what can be the issue ? | 20:04 |
| heroid | please help | 20:04 |
| PaulM | diddy: failure of imagination | 20:04 |
| thiebaude | maxo, 2 day before 9.04 was released i found that fix | 20:04 |
| bastidrazor | losher, i see them too, from my personal experience it is wiser to have a seperate /home and do fresh installs for each release. | 20:04 |
| diddy | PaulM: You have a good use for this? | 20:04 |
| losher | bastidrazor: amen to that... | 20:05 |
| jbbarnes | surferdude: You can test and play with it all you want to get the hang of it before you actually commit the changes. | 20:05 |
| diddy | PaulM: I finally managed to do it but now I am asking myself why I want this. ;) | 20:05 |
| maxo | thiebaude: X doesn't freeze for me, just that videos, esp. flash videos, don't play properly | 20:05 |
| surferdude | Software RAID should be good enough for a low volume email server, right? | 20:05 |
| thiebaude | maxo, i dont know if you should try my fix | 20:05 |
| specto | surferdude: probably, especially if it is multicore | 20:06 |
| jbbarnes | surferdude: I have three linux boxes doing that with software RAID. Postfix running on Ubuntu server. | 20:06 |
| maxo | thiebaude: I'll see what happens, I can always remove it again | 20:06 |
| thiebaude | maxo, yep | 20:06 |
| losher | diddy: sometimes the hardware is attached to a different machine & you need to run where the hardware is, for example... | 20:06 |
| surferdude | Just curious, how many mailboxes do you have running? | 20:06 |
| Guest28413 | does anybody know how to hack ubuntu linux | 20:06 |

| bastidrazor | yacc, sudo apt-cache policy packagename .. possibly | 21:02 |

| ikonia | yacc: yes | 21:02 |

| bruenig | jrib: it worked once, but never after that. It was strange | 21:03 |
| ikonia | stgmtl: do you want to do it for the normal user or the root user | 21:03 |
| yacc | ikonia, so a release upgrade on Ubuntu per definition replaces all debs? | 21:03 |
| ikonia | yacc: correct | 21:03 |
| stgmtl | ikonia: as a root. i want to give myself root access | 21:04 |

| bastidrazor | losher, oly562 there is a way to make it due a check on next boot.. give me a second and i'll give you the link on how | 21:23 |
| specto | !wireless > Geysser | 21:23 |
| ubottu | Geysser, please see my private message | 21:23 |
| lstarnes | vadi2: that should install the version in the official repo | 21:23 |
| forevernoob | i've been told that i need the latest java | 21:23 |
| forevernoob | http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=java.com | 21:24 |
| rappr | oly562, your system is not scanning on every boot is it? | 21:24 |
| forevernoob | there is no .deb file | 21:24 |
| specto | !java > forevernoob | 21:24 |
| ubottu | forevernoob, please see my private message | 21:24 |
| forevernoob | specto: that isn't the latest version though | 21:24 |
| vadi2 | lstarnes: thank you. it still wants to remove but theres actually a few I want to reinstall, so its ok | 21:25 |
| === keres_ is now known as keres | ||
| forevernoob | specto: can i dl and install the latest from java.com? | 21:25 |
| === devsys is now known as devsys-bbl | ||
| lstarnes | forevernoob: that method isn't supported iirc | 21:25 |
| oly562 | and to do it manually, do a: ??? | 21:25 |
| oly562 | tune2fs | 21:25 |
| bastidrazor | oly562, create the file forcefsck in / .. sudo touch /forcefsck .. then reboot | 21:25 |
| specto | forevernoob: what do you mean? are you installing 5? | 21:26 |
| losher | bastidrazor: tune2fs -c <a very big number> should do it... | 21:26 |
| forevernoob | lstarnes: what method? and wht does iirc mean? | 21:26 |
| oly562 | losher: thanks | 21:26 |
| rappr | !iirc | 21:26 |
| ubottu | IIRC means "if I remember correctly" | 21:26 |
| lstarnes | forevernoob: installing directly from hava.com | 21:26 |
| lstarnes | *java.com | 21:26 |
| losher | bastidrazor: tune2fs -C <a very big number> should do it... (sorry, capital C, see the man page) | 21:26 |
| specto | forevernoob: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin | 21:26 |
| forevernoob | specto: no, http://java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?jre_version=1.6.0_0&vendor=Sun+Microsystems+Inc.&os=Linux&os_version=2.6.28-13-generic | 21:26 |
| uKnow | can anyone help me trun a vista computer in to router so i can connect through it with a cat5 from anothere computer | 21:27 |
| oly562 | bastidrazor: explain the majical forcefsck :) | 21:27 |
| Amnizee | Hi, need help with *.avi's . It "flashes" when opened with Movie Player AND VLC (0.9.9x) , but with MPlayer it works 100%. Anyone knoes how I could make it work in VLC or Movie Player ? | 21:27 |
| richard | can anyone help me install gtkam | 21:27 |
| sonink | Does anyone know how to map key combinations such as Ctrl+Alt+(some other key) with xmodmap or otherwise? | 21:27 |
| === richard is now known as Guest7002 | ||
| specto | !windows | uKnow | 21:27 |
| ubottu | uKnow: For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents | 21:27 |
| jrib | sonink: what do you want to map it to? | 21:27 |
| uKnow | yeah | 21:27 |
| oly562 | what will touching that file do? | 21:27 |
| uKnow | i have ubuntu | 21:28 |
| forevernoob | specto: i need version 14 | 21:28 |
| specto | forevernoob: ok, yu will have to downoad the .bin file | 21:28 |
| oly562 | im not accustomed to putting files under / path | 21:28 |
| forevernoob | specto: i think i've got 1.6.13 | 21:28 |
| sonink | jrib: I want to change the VT switch commands to something other than the F keys | 21:28 |
| losher | bastidrazor: oly562: forcefsck will check all systems I think. The tune2fs -C can be used to select specific filesystems. Note that if the filesystem is NOT in use, you can simply umount it and fsck it any time you like... | 21:28 |
| Guest7002 | i want to use it with gphoto2 | 21:28 |
| oly562 | and what other special files are there like that so i can research more | 21:28 |
| uKnow | but the internet card ant working so im trying to connect to a computer with a wierless card to get the internt | 21:28 |
| CaptainMorgan | uKnow, check out #windows, but you might also need to check out #hardware | 21:29 |
| nanotube | uKnow: does your computer have two network cards? you need (at least) 2 to make a router. | 21:29 |
| jrib | sonink: hrmm, what's your plan? Do you know a command to switch vt, or are you just planning to evoke ctrl-alt-f* on the press of another key? | 21:29 |
| uKnow | yeah one wireless and on ethernet | 21:29 |
| oly562 | ohhh i go ti,, your seting forcefsck to manually do it, then afterwards remove the file | 21:29 |
| Guest7002 | has anyone used gphoto2? | 21:29 |
| oly562 | ic, the unmount stuff. thanks | 21:29 |
| oly562 | i believe e2fsck is the process and its checking /dev/sda1 | 21:30 |
| nanotube | uKnow: you jsut have to configure iptables to forward packets from one NIC to another. you can websearch for a howto, once you install ubuntu on the comp. | 21:30 |
| sonink | jrib: yeah i've figured out the command to switch VT. It's XF86_Switch_VT_(# of the VT you want | 21:30 |
| oly562 | brb, phone | 21:30 |
| losher | oly562: almost. I think the forcefsck file gets removed automatically once the check is done... | 21:30 |
| nanotube | uKnow: but explain to me again why you want to do that? | 21:31 |
| CaptainMorgan | nanotube, sounded to me like he wanted Vista to operate that way, not Ubuntu... which is of course off-topic | 21:31 |
| jrib | sonink: I have no such command, but use xbindkeys... If your command doesn't work, see my current xbindkeysrc for a command the emits combinations like ctrl-alt-key: http://dpaste.com/65634/ | 21:31 |
| uKnow | nanotube:i have two computers on with ubuntu and one with vista both computer have two cards on wireless and one ethernet | 21:31 |
| mkjackson | hey folks, I asked earlier about printer connectivity but I've not found anything too conclusive... is there a way to get a canon mx860 connected to ubuntu via a network? | 21:32 |
| uKnow | i want the ubuntu to conect to the internet via cat5 to the vista as a router to use the vista wireless card | 21:32 |
| jrib | sonink: I know of "chvt" but it requires root | 21:33 |
| uKnow | if possable | 21:33 |
| CaptainMorgan | uKnow, sounds like you're making too much work for yourself.... I could be wrong | 21:33 |
| natschil | why doesn't gdb seem to linearly execute code (i.e. it goes back and forth) ? | 21:33 |
| Guest7002 | please can someone help me download gtkam | 21:33 |
| nanotube | uKnow: ah, so you need to set up the /vista/ comp to be the router. that is possible, but you should ask on #windows channel for help on that one. | 21:33 |
| Guest7002 | i downloaded all of the packages | 21:34 |
| Guest7002 | open them | 21:34 |
| Guest7002 | installed them | 21:34 |
| nanotube | uKnow: but... why not just connect your ubuntu computer with a wire to your current router? | 21:34 |
| nanotube | uKnow: router too far away? | 21:34 |
| Slart | Guest7002: the one in the repos doesn't work? | 21:34 |
| Guest7002 | but then when i look for the executable, its not there | 21:34 |
| nanotube | CaptainMorgan: guess you were right, it's a vista config question :) | 21:34 |
| uKnow | wireless card yeah it has got me up 3 days trying to get it install right | 21:34 |
| Slart | Guest7002: and please, try not to press enter until you're done. Many small cut up sentences makes the conversation hard to follow | 21:35 |
| sonink | jrib: I don't have my linux box available at the moment. it xbindkeys a default installed package? I'll search the net for the man page. The command I mentioned to switch VTs is what's used by xmodmap. If you run 'xmodmap -pk' you can see it's bound to the Fkeys but I don't know how to remap a Ctrl+Alt combination. The man page only talks about the key alone, Shift+the key, Mode_switch+the key (which I don't know how to invoke, and Shift+Mode_swit | 21:35 |
| Guest7002 | slart: im using the source version | 21:35 |
| uKnow | and it ant working so im giveng up on wireless for know and restortingto any thing else to get tha packeges i need on the ubuntu computer | 21:35 |
| Guest7002 | slart: but let me check the repos one more time | 21:35 |
| jrib | sonink: xbindkeys isn't default but it is in the repositories | 21:35 |
| Slart | !info gtkam | Guest7002 | 21:35 |
| ubottu | Guest7002: gtkam (source: gtkam): application for retrieving media from digital cameras. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.1.16.1-1ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 497 kB, installed size 1332 kB | 21:36 |

| rappr | mkjackson, if you already have the printer connected to the network you might be able to print to it using the MX850 driver http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-PIXMA_MX850 | 21:36 |
| cbrake | I'm trying upgrade a 8.04 server, and getting: | 21:36 |
| MINNIE | hello | 21:36 |
| cbrake | "No new release found" any ideas? | 21:36 |
| uKnow | thanks but i need to figure out how to coneect toit with the ubuntu | 21:36 |
| nanotube | uKnow: set up internet connection sharing on your vista, then can connect your ubuntu to the vista with wire, and have it go out through wireless to the internet. | 21:36 |
| specto | !enter | cbrake | 21:37 |
| ubottu | cbrake: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 21:37 |
| Guest7002 | yes that what it does | 21:37 |
| uKnow | oohh ok thanks so much and mybad for bringing a vista questino here | 21:37 |
| cbrake | ubottu: sorry, will do | 21:37 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sorry, will do | 21:37 |
| specto | !upgrade > cbrake | 21:37 |
| ubottu | cbrake, please see my private message | 21:37 |
| nanotube | cbrake: there's some setting in synaptic package manager which by default only looks for other LTS releases, iirc. | 21:37 |
| Slart | cbrake: there is a setting... either in the update manager or in the software sources settings thingy.. it either looks for a new LTS release, any new release or doesn't care about new releases | 21:37 |
| nanotube | !upgrade | 21:37 |
| MINNIE | HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 21:37 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 21:37 |
| Slart | cbrake: try changing that to "any new release | 21:37 |
| ghindo | !upgrade > ghindo | 21:37 |
| ubottu | ghindo, please see my private message | 21:37 |
| losher | cbrake: trying to upgrade to what release? And why bother. 8.04 is really stable.... | 21:37 |
| ikonia | MINNIE: calm down please and don't use caps | 21:37 |
| jrib | sonink: ah I see now. In that case you do want to use xmodmap. The syntax is just: keycode NUMBER_OBTAINED_USING_XEV = XF86_Switchwhatver | 21:38 |
| specto | !caps | MINNIE | 21:38 |
| ubottu | MINNIE: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 21:38 |
| cbrake | losher: 9.04 | 21:38 |
| losher | MINNIE: we don't chat here, we do computer support. Ask a question.... | 21:38 |
| losher | cbrake: again, why bother? | 21:38 |

| MINNIE | WELL YALL NOT HELPING ME OUT | 21:38 |
| happy | can someone tell me the flags for dpkg to make it install a file in a different location? | 21:39 |
| specto | !caps | MINNIE | 21:39 |
| Slart | Guest7002: oh.. please don't do that.. use a pastebin | 21:39 |
| forevernoob | specto: is this the latest in Ubuntu? :~$ java -version java version "1.6.0_0" | 21:39 |
| ikonia | MINNIE: if you don't stop blurting out caps - you will be muted | 21:39 |
| Slart | !paste | Guest7002 | 21:39 |
| ubottu | Guest7002: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic | 21:39 |
| Guest7002 | sorry | 21:39 |
| nanotube | MINNIE: what's your question? | 21:39 |
| specto | forevernoob: sorry, I do not know, I do not have java on my linux box. | 21:39 |
| forevernoob | specto: and if i dl the latest java bin can i replace it? | 21:39 |
| Slart | MINNIE: if you don't get an answer for your question just repeat it.. but wait at least 15 minutes before repeating.. | 21:39 |
| forevernoob | specto: OMG? | 21:39 |
| cbrake | losher: good question -- I guess I would like to run several VM's and prefer to use the latest versions of KVM and associated apps | 21:39 |
| cbrake | losher: but perhaps I should just stay at 8.04 | 21:39 |
| Slart | MINNIE: oh.. and just a hint.. you *will* get ignored if you keep up the caps | 21:40 |
| Guest7002 | is the gnome support a problem | 21:40 |
| ghindo | cbrake, See: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 21:40 |
| Guest7002 | the fact that it says no | 21:40 |
| sonink | jrib: yeah I've been working with those commands, but I can't see how to set commands when the specific modifiers are used in conjunction with a keycode. It seems like it only works with the Shift and the Mode_switch modifiers, which I don't think is mapped to a key on my keyboard by default | 21:40 |
| specto | forevernoob: I only use ubuntu for my server :P | 21:40 |
| nanotube | uKnow: if you connect with a cable directly nic-to-nic, you'll need a crossover ethernet cable, too... look that up as well. :) | 21:40 |
| mau | Hello. How do I add an existing ntfs partiton to ubuntu so that I can open it from linux? | 21:40 |
| losher | cbrake: 8.04 LTS is specifically aimed at stability. I'd have thought that was paramount for a server.... | 21:41 |
| happy | can someone tell me the flags for dpkg to make it install a file in a different location? I want to change the name of the file /usr/bin/firefox to /usr/bin/firefox-3.1 | 21:41 |
| mau | I didn't add it while I was installing ubuntu | 21:41 |
| ikonia | happy: you can't | 21:41 |
| Jowi | ntfs > mau | 21:41 |
| Jowi | !ntfs | 21:41 |
| ubottu | To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 21:41 |
| happy | ikonia: I am pretty sure I have done it before | 21:41 |
| Slart | mau: hmm.. when I install ubuntu I usually see the ntfs drives automatically.. | 21:41 |
| forevernoob | specto: some of us are trying to use Ubuntu as a Desktop machine in the real world ;) | 21:42 |
| ikonia | happy: changing the name of a file is nothing to do with dpkg, you can just "mv" the file | 21:42 |
| nanotube | happy: look up the "dpkg-divert" | 21:42 |
| mau | Jowi: reading that. Thanks! | 21:42 |
| Guest7002 | Slart: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/215070/ | 21:42 |
| cbrake | losher: yeah, its always a tradeoff between stability and the pain of not having the latest bits of everything -- especially as I do a lot of development. OK, you've convinced me to stay with 8.04 | 21:42 |
| happy | thanks nanotube! :-) | 21:42 |
| specto | forevernoob: haha, I know, that's why I try to help, but I can't due to work and playing video games :) | 21:42 |
| anr78 | I have insetalled Ubuntu on a Unibody MacBook Pro, and all is well, except that the keyboard layout isn't correct. For one thing I can't find curly/square brackets, and | and ' are swapped. | 21:42 |
| happy | ikonia: someone answered my question ;-) | 21:42 |
| nanotube | ikonia: yes it does, if you want future upgrades to be aware of the move. "man dpkg-divert" - it's a pretty cool idea :) | 21:42 |
| nanotube | happy: no prob ;) | 21:42 |
| Guest7002 | slart: i figured pastebin out | 21:42 |
| ikonia | nanotube: I know about it, it just rarley works properly | 21:43 |
| Guest7002 | slart: but thats what i got after sudo make install | 21:43 |
| Slart | Guest7002: ehm.. what is that? I didn't ask for a pastebin, did I | 21:43 |
| nanotube | ikonia: hmm, has always worked for me. ... :) | 21:43 |
| sonink | anr78: you just need to use xmodmap. fixing those things is really simple when it's just single keys or shifted keys | 21:43 |
| Slart | Guest7002: I just asked you why you didn't use the one in the repos | 21:43 |
| ikonia | nanotube: conversations I've had with some the package maintainers and my own limited experience of it suggested not using it | 21:43 |
| losher | cbrake: it's your call. I like my servers rock steady. Development on the bleeding edge is done on clients where it doesn't matter if they crash & burn.... | 21:44 |
| SpadXIII | i'm trying for about 3 days now to setup my wireless of my laptop (wireless works, it's the wpa that's not working), i just upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 using the wired connection. and just now, the wired connection (using static ip) stopped working.. i have no idea where to look anymore.. | 21:44 |
| xerox1 | having installed devilspie today: all programs start maximized; any recommandations? | 21:44 |
| revygttam | in installed ubuntu-desktop on my server, how can i prevent it from starting automatically? | 21:44 |
| Guest7002 | slart: i just did | 21:44 |
| ikonia | revygttam: disabvle gdm | 21:44 |
| cbrake | losher: I guess I've not gotten burned enough times with non-LTS versions :-) They have all been rock steady for me. | 21:45 |
| Guest7002 | slart: and i got the same result | 21:45 |
| Jowi | SpadXIII, can you see any wireless networks in Gnome panel wifi applet? | 21:45 |
| linuxguy2009 | Would it be considered off topic if I asked about resizing the installation partition? If so i will go to off-topic room. | 21:45 |
| losher | cbrake: it seems that 9.04 wasn't quite up to the standard of 8.X (just my opinion) | 21:45 |
| === alexises is now known as Guest45047 | ||
| Slart | Guest7002: you "get a result"? I don't even know what you are doing? | 21:46 |
| ikonia | linuxguy2009: ask away, it's fine | 21:46 |
| jpds | linuxguy2009: No. | 21:46 |
| ikonia | linuxguy2009: nothing with with that question | 21:46 |
| linuxguy2009 | ok | 21:46 |
| anr78 | sonink: so if mostly everything is correct, I should just fix one by one until I'm good? | 21:46 |
| SpadXIII | Jowi: i removed the network manager and install wicd. which works good and lists alot of networks yes, i can even connect to an unprotected network, just not mine with wpa2 | 21:46 |
| sebsebseb | hi | 21:46 |
| vmrat | hi | 21:46 |
| cbrake | losher: good to know -- my servers have been running fine, but 2nd opinion is helpful | 21:46 |
| mau | ntfs-config worked very easily. Thanks again! | 21:47 |
| sonink | anr78: yeah I think that's your best bet. Hopefully you don't have a lot of keys to remap but it's not hard to do. You can just google xmodmap and find a few tutorials and examples of similar issues | 21:47 |
| Guest7002 | slart: im sorry im a noob i learned ubuntu 2 weeks ago | 21:47 |
| Jowi | SpadXIII, well, I don't know if my suggestion will help you - but after I upgraded to Jaunty my wifi could not connect to access points that used channel higher than 11. I set my router to use 5 and it suddenly worked. | 21:48 |
| Guest7002 | slart: now i work at IFA | 21:48 |
| ikonia | Guest7002: everyone learns, don't worry | 21:48 |
| happy | nanotube: thanks. Now firefox 3.5 starts instead of 3.1 :-) | 21:48 |
| Guest7002 | slart: and they want me to build a camera that does photometry on stars | 21:48 |
| Slart | Guest7002: no worries.. we've all been there.. but you need to explain what you're doing.. all I know is that you want to install gtkam | 21:48 |
| Guest7002 | slart: ok | 21:48 |
| hayde | hi. i am looking for a free ubundu dvd set. how can i get? | 21:49 |
| cbrake | ahh /me figures out that /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades is where you check if you want to stay with LTS versions or not | 21:49 |
| Slart | Guest7002: first... why not install the version from the repositories? using synaptic or apt-get | 21:49 |
| SpadXIII | Jowi: i had mine set to channel 13, but lowered it to channel 9 as there are alot of networks with both channel 6 and 11 around.. do you have wpa/wpa2 setup in your router ? | 21:49 |
| Guest7002 | slart: i downloaded gtkam tar file, upacked, downloaded all the packages | 21:49 |
| ikonia | hayde: you can download from the internet | 21:49 |
| linuxguy2009 | I am using partimage package to do a default installation backup and trying to resize the boot partition and then create a 2GB swap (just in case its needed) and then finally 100+GB for my home folder. Every time I rezise the boot partition ubuntu throws errors at bootup.Is this not allowed? I was going to edit the fstab file after boot to tell it where my new swap and home is located. Im just now learning about the fstab so its my fi | 21:49 |
| ikonia | hayde: ubuntu is free | 21:49 |
| Guest7002 | slart: they all made | 21:49 |
| Jowi | SpadXIII, wpa with tkip | 21:49 |
| ikonia | linuxguy2009: how are you resizing | 21:49 |
| hayde | ikonia : yeah i know but i dont want to download it? to much time. | 21:49 |
| Guest7002 | slart: then i finally made progress on making gtkam the source one | 21:50 |
| linuxguy2009 | ikonia:gparted in a live session boot | 21:50 |
| Guest7002 | slart: so it said it made | 21:50 |
| ikonia | hayde: then ask someone else to do it and mail it to you | 21:50 |
| ikonia | linuxguy2009: ahhh the uuid's will change | 21:50 |
| Guest7002 | slart: then i look for the executable file in the gtkam directory | 21:50 |
| Guest7002 | slart: but nothing | 21:50 |
| linuxguy2009 | ikonia: yes I do believe that was part of the error the UUID. | 21:50 |
| ikonia | linuxguy2009: when you resizr it do a "blkid" and change the entry for the /boot partition in your /etc/fstab on your disk based system (make sure you don't do it on the livecd) | 21:50 |

| Guest7002 | slart: ok thats ok the other computer people her couldnt help me either | 21:51 |
| linuxguy2009 | ikonia:not sure what a blkid is. | 21:51 |
| Guest7002 | slart: here | 21:51 |
| ikonia | linuxguy2009: a command | 21:51 |
| losher | hayde: http://distrowatch.com/ will sell you a Ubuntu cd for $1.75. Not quite free, but very cheap... | 21:51 |
| Guest7002 | slart: this is shitty | 21:51 |
| linuxguy2009 | ikonia: oh ok | 21:51 |
| bastidrazor | linuxguy2009, that will give you all the UUID's of the partitions you have. | 21:51 |
| Jowi | SpadXIII, no. it's a standard install of jauntu (netbook remix version) | 21:51 |
| Slart | Guest7002: if you want help I would advice you to start reading what people tell you and answer their questions | 21:52 |
| linuxguy2009 | ikonia:ok im with ya. | 21:52 |
| shelper | does any one know how to completely reinstall x on ubuntu? | 21:52 |
| SpadXIII | Jowi: i guess i messed things up too much then .. heh | 21:52 |

| linuxguy2009 | ikonia: Im in the live cd session right now. I tried the blkid command and I get nothing. | 21:53 |
| losher | linuxguy2009: if the uuid changes (and it will if you resize) you may have to edit both /etc/fstab and also /boot/grub/menu.lst | 21:53 |
| Guest7002 | slart: i am listening to you | 21:53 |

| Gnimsh | Is it possible I can resize my / partition by deleting it in gparted and taking some more free space from /home? Or would I have to create all new partitions? | 23:02 |
| SurrealExit | cyberjamer: ok. lemme check it | 23:02 |
| stroyan | Gnimsh: You could install and run ncdu (as slava_dp) suggested, or xdiskusage. They will help you see what is taking up the most space. | 23:02 |
| cyberjames | SurrealExit: is that correct of using 'aptitude dist-upgrade' and answer the question by choosing 'yes' ? | 23:03 |
| Jowi | howie, yeah ok. I don't know what could be wrong then... | 23:03 |
| Gnimsh | oh ya | 23:03 |

| cyberjames | SurrealExit: I dont know | 23:06 |
| Gnimsh | Can someone tell me what exactly the ./ in ./configure is used for? | 23:06 |
| Jowi | howie, maybe this is similar to your prob: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/9146 | 23:06 |
| jrib | Gnimsh: . means current directory. It runs the script named "configure" in the current directory | 23:07 |
| cyberjames | Gnimsh: to run the configure script | 23:07 |
| SurrealExit | cyberjames: you are upgrading from intrepid ibex to jaunty | 23:08 |

| howie | jowie: night ty | 23:08 |
| spikemcc | andrewboktor try an usb headset any will work perfect but you will have to configure it a little | 23:08 |
| cyberjames | SurrealExit: no | 23:09 |
| ska178 | slart: let me check | 23:09 |
| cyberjames | how to do that | 23:09 |
| Sparc__ | I have an ubuntu server pushing about 150 Mbps of VoIP traffic on an Intel GigE NIC, but my ifconfig is showing a large number of RX dropped packets | 23:09 |
| spikemcc | ska178 it run what it need no more no less | 23:09 |
| SurrealExit | cyberjames: try it then | 23:09 |
| _matt | what theme do you guys use? | 23:09 |
| andrewboktor | spikemcc, i don't want a USB headseat, i know my hardware is fine, and i want to use it | 23:09 |
| sonink | does anyone know how to use xmodmap to map keysyms to combinations like Ctrl+Shift+another key or Ctrl+Alt+another key? | 23:09 |
| SurrealExit | _matt: humanity | 23:09 |
| SurrealExit | or human | 23:09 |
| SurrealExit | i don't know xD | 23:09 |
| cyberjames | SurrealExit: just issuing 'do-release-upgrade' ? | 23:10 |
| Gnimsh | I use the new wave toolbar with crashbit icons | 23:10 |
| ulb | stroyan: is there a labelflash app for ubuntu? | 23:10 |
| SurrealExit | yes, i guess | 23:10 |
| spikemcc | andrewboktor I use an usb headset cause it's better, easier and faster ... that's why I suggest you that !!! | 23:10 |
| _matt | because i'm trying to find something better than elegant brit | 23:10 |
| Gnimsh | I installed this program for disc management, if anyone's interested. Its just like seqouiaview http://gdmap.sourceforge.net/ | 23:10 |
| stroyan | sonink: xmodmap assigns keysyms for plain key, shift, Mode_switch, and shift+Mode_switch. ctrl and alt are only modifiers. They don't change the keysym. | 23:11 |
| SurrealExit | cyberjames: are you trying out do-release-upgrade? | 23:11 |

| spikemcc | 512 Mb outch | 23:15 |
| sonink | stroyan: I know it doesn't change the keysyms, I was just curious if there was a way to use modifier combinations other than the ones you listed. I checked xev and none of my keys were assigned to Mode_switch so I might have to map a key to that. | 23:15 |
| daniel29 | spikemcc: i've used linux in worse computers | 23:15 |

| sonink | jrib: I don't think xbindkeys will work since that only runs shell commands and you said root was needed for VT switch with the command you mentioned. | 23:15 |
| ska178 | slart: when I checked the system monitor only one of the processors are being used | 23:15 |
| spikemcc | daniel29 you're having a zombie process I think | 23:15 |

| Guest47313 | is there onother good player like vlc for ubuntu? | 23:15 |
| Slart | ska178: and the output from that command? it mentions two cpus? | 23:16 |
| spikemcc | mplayer is better than vlc mostly | 23:16 |

| spikemcc | apt://mplayer | 23:16 |
| Slart | ska178: no worries.. you open a terminal, that's in applications, accessories, terminal | 23:17 |

| spikemcc | there is also a firefox plugin for mplayer so it's good too watch onlive vidéos sometime | 23:17 |

| FirstSgt | I am attempting to share via samba /mnt/drive1 how do i do this? | 23:21 |
| Slart | ska178: good.. that means that ubuntu is aware that you have a dual core cpu.. now lets start up the system monitor.. that's in the System menu, Administration, System monitor | 23:21 |
| FirstSgt | jrib: better :) | 23:21 |
| Hilikus | FirstSgt: configure samba to do it | 23:21 |

| FirstSgt | jrib: thank you | 23:22 |
| sonink | jrib: but I also used xmodmap to disable Ctrl+Alt+F3 switching to that terminal. I am removing the Ctrl+Alt+F keys switching and want to use the combination I mentioned instead. | 23:22 |

| jrib | dash: this channel isn't for karmic support | 23:29 |
| Slart | ska178: ah.. that might make sense then.. the cpu is probably scaled down to save power... if you run the cpu at something like 200 MHz even running xorg when it's idle will use a large percentage of the cpu power.. | 23:29 |
| dash | jrib: Sure. | 23:29 |
| digitallll | OMG its in swedish lets c if I can translete | 23:29 |
| Slart | ska178: but no worries, it should scale up again when you run something that needs the power.. so that works as intended | 23:30 |
| chipmunk430 | Can I use a DVD instead of a CD for installing Jaunty 9.04? | 23:30 |

| SurrealExit | ska178: Xorg is basically, your desktop | 23:31 |
| jrib | sonink: well you can try having xbindkeys emit the new key combination (like in the example I pastebinned before) or you can just make sudo not ask for a password for chvt (no idea what the ramifications are if any) | 23:31 |

| ska178 | slart: no worries, would installing 64 bit version of ubunto improve my computers preformance? like i was saying the processor sticker says 64 on the bottom | 23:32 |
| Slart | ska178: and about the 32-bit vs 64-bit, there's no real loss there, 64bit will run a little faster when it comes to certain stuff.. | 23:32 |
| ska178 | slart: ty | 23:32 |
| howie | _matt, Yes but i cant find an .inf file for it and the one im using only works half the time | 23:32 |
| Slart | ska178: usually people install 64bit when they have 4GB or more RAM | 23:33 |

| _matt | what model card do you have | 23:33 |
| _matt | ill look | 23:33 |
| Titan8990 | digitallll, eg - synaptic open while trying to use aptitude, or leaving the update manager open or running | 23:33 |
| Titan8990 | digitallll, and you should paste the full error messages | 23:34 |
| Slart | ska178: so, I think you'll find that ubuntu is using both cores.. although they might not have a lot to do at the moment.. there's no real use in switching to 64bit unless you have 4GB or more RAM | 23:34 |

| howie | matt, thats what 1 of the tutorials was saying to do but if theres a linux driver id much rather do that | 23:36 |

| ubottu | dksoba88: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 23:38 |

| Slart | dsotr: every time I've seen this question people always say "it will just work".. I don't have a 5.1 speaker system so I can't try it myself though.. have you tried playing 5.1 audio ie not just stereo audio? | 23:42 |
