| f00dn00b | so is linux ubuntu just called ubuntu then? | 00:00 |
| jlaroche | OttifantSir - yes. Didn't work | 00:00 |
| coleys | f00dn00b: Yes. | 00:00 |
| Visualante | anyone know why ATi drivers don't support 1680x1050? | 00:00 |
| VCoolio | fwaokda: look for how to disable usplash (shouldn't be too difficult, it breaks easily;) | 00:00 |
| syslq78 | f00dn00b, tehnicaly linux is not operating system it's just a kernel. "just" | 00:00 |
| MystaMax | question, I'm currently running 8.10, and I'm about to use clonezilla to image my /home partition, and migrate to a new hard drive. I'll be installing 9.04 on the new drive. What happens to my permissions? | 00:00 |
| blz | f00dn00b: ubuntu is one "flavor" of linux | 00:00 |
| glitsj16 | safruhani: i suggest checking both your /etc/mpd.conf settins and the output of launching mpd from a terminal window to see any warnings or errors | 00:00 |
| coleys | f00dn00b: Linux is the general term, and then there is... distributions like Fedora, Ubuntu, gentoo, etc... | 00:00 |
| Out_Cold | i was going to try it... but the klvm doesn't support it yet.. | 00:00 |
| jrib | Out_Cold: I lost data on a conversion, does that count!? | 00:00 |
| blz | so to speak | 00:00 |
| fwaokda | VCoolio, breaks? | 00:00 |
| Out_Cold | jrib, that would be an issue lol | 00:00 |
| coleys | f00dn00b: Windows is the general, then there is... Vista, Xp, 2000, etc. | 00:00 |
| coleys | . | 00:00 |
| jrib | Out_Cold: backups of course :) | 00:00 |
| safruhani | glitsj16: thanks i'm gonna do that | 00:00 |
| OttifantSir | hornets: The one I know of is a third-party app for the screenlets package. But that's a lot of eye-candy if you just want an app to show bandwidth. | 00:01 |
| Out_Cold | jrib, i lost all my data during a backup lol | 00:01 |
| Out_Cold | on resiserfs though | 00:01 |
| foul_owl | does anyone know how to fix grub error 2 without fiddling with the BIOS? | 00:01 |
| jrib | Out_Cold: erm, you must have a terrible backup policy :) | 00:01 |
| f00dn00b | but following that philosophy, shouldn't the windows line just be called "xp, 2003, vista" rather than having windows at the beginning? | 00:01 |
| VCoolio | fwaokda: I mean, I tried to change themes for it and got the text because it was little difficult to set up; but you get the hang of it; it doesn't really 'break' things | 00:01 |
| blz | I'm having trouble installing samba-common at the command line. Here are the errors I'm getting... can anyone help? http://paste.ubuntu.com/215855/ | 00:01 |
| OttifantSir | Out_Cold: Been running it for a few months on a Dell Inspiron 9400 with no problems. | 00:01 |
| Out_Cold | jrib... implementing a new one lmao | 00:01 |
| blz | f00dn00b: windows is completely different | 00:01 |
| syslq78 | coleys, not really true, since you are talking different kernel versions, you have 50 distros all runing same kernel.... | 00:01 |
| hornets | OttifantSir: i know screenlets | 00:01 |
| f00dn00b | blz: but they're both operation systems | 00:01 |
| blz | f00dn00b: but saying linux in lieu of ubuntu is like saying "NT Kernel" instead of windows | 00:01 |
| safruhani | glitsj16: before, i move /etc/init.d/mpd to somewhere, than i get it back, may it be happen becaouse of that? | 00:02 |
| coleys | syslq78: Being completely... easy to understand =P | 00:02 |
| hornets | but yes, too much of an eye candy. | 00:02 |

| blz | but good luck comparin htem | 00:02 |
| mcr_ | cairo dock also has a bandwidth monitor add on | 00:02 |
| f00dn00b | blz: so i should call it windows nt kernel vista? | 00:02 |
| fwaokda | VCoolio, I just would like it to boot up without images... so it would load its stuff and show that and then ask for a login/password without going to the ubuntu login gui thing either | 00:02 |
| jrib | f00dn00b: people say "ubuntu", "ubuntu linux" and "ubuntu gnu/linux" but they all refer to the same thing | 00:02 |
| hornets | I'm searching for something running as a service. | 00:02 |
| glitsj16 | safruhani: very likely so yes, without that it won't daemonize | 00:02 |
| blz | f00n00b: no it's windows vista. this is ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope | 00:02 |
| usr13 | f00dn00b: f00dn00b How about MS for short? | 00:02 |
| f00dn00b | i hate it when people say gnu/linux | 00:02 |

| hornets | OttifantSir: anyway.. what's the software to use with screenlets? | 00:03 |
| syslq78 | f00dn00b, windows it's not so much different, if you stick to linux you'll get shitloads of general knowledge that will help you in all areas of IT, since it does not hide details, linux I mean. | 00:03 |
| coleys | f00dn00b: Why..? gnu/linux = Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope =P | 00:03 |
| Out_Cold | i went to go copy from the CLI with Ctrl + c | 00:03 |
| === Dreki_ is now known as Dreki__ | ||

| f00dn00b | Andorin: * no it isn't. it's richard stallmans retarded name for it | 00:03 |
| === Dreki__ is now known as dreki | ||
| Andorin | f00dn00b: The GNU project's official name for the operating system is GNU/Linux. | 00:03 |
| syslq78 | coleys, yeah, I know :), you could spent years discussing that stuff and never get anywhere | 00:03 |
| MaT-dg | Andorin: how do you see that? in the network preferences? | 00:03 |
| jefinc | Skapare: I use gtkpod | 00:03 |
| coleys | syslq78: exactly =P | 00:04 |
| f00dn00b | Andorin: since when was the Gnu project in charge of linux, eh? | 00:04 |
| Andorin | MaT-dg: No, I have Deluge test the active port. | 00:04 |
| blz | blackest_knight: oh damn I should read more carefully. lol thanks | 00:04 |
| * Andorin sighs @ f00dn00b | 00:04 | |
| usr13 | f00dn00b: gnu/Linux is accurate, shouldn't be annoying. But we could call it opensource or opensource software and be just as accurate. | 00:04 |
| Skapare | jefinc: OK, I'll look for that one, thanks | 00:04 |
| treetopj | anyone know why my wireless on ubuntu if as good as it is in windows | 00:04 |
| fwaokda | VCoolio, k ty | 00:04 |

| hornets | OttifantSir: well.. i need something with command line. lol | 00:04 |
| f00dn00b | it isn't accurate | 00:04 |
| hornets | i dont have X on my server box. | 00:05 |
| usr13 | f00dn00b: Why not? | 00:05 |
| f00dn00b | it is a judgement based on "lines of code" | 00:05 |
| dreki | is there a program that will mount CD images in the mds/mdf fromat for ubuntu? | 00:05 |
| coleys | f00dn00b: It really is. =P | 00:05 |
| OttifantSir | hornets: No software apart from Screenlets itself. It's in the repos actually. Latest version even. Though the team behind it are now working on Universal Applets: Applets that integrate with Avant Window Navigator. NetMonitor is the one I'm talking about. You have to go to www.screenlets.org and look for it in Third-Party Apps. The version you want is 0.8. | 00:05 |
| LjL | it's offtopic, too | 00:05 |
| blackest_knight | blz: np | 00:05 |
| hornets | hum ok :/ | 00:05 |
| syslq78 | f00dn00b, it's not retarted it means GNU NOT UNIX since linux and unix have completely different bacground implementation but look and feel the same since they both adhere to posix standard (portable operating system) which defines utilities needed, system calls etc to look&feel the same | 00:05 |
| MaT-dg | Andorin: yes, that's what I meant. I have tested it here (with my current router, not the linksys) and when I forwarded the port deluge noticed it right away so the problem is with the router | 00:05 |
| blz | f00dn00b: it's the code's legal licence... | 00:05 |
| syslq78 | treetopj, what's with wireless? | 00:05 |
| f00dn00b | following the same philosophy, we could call windows "microsoft/windows/oemcrapware vista" | 00:05 |
| coleys | hornets: there also is SuperKaramba =) But its kde. | 00:05 |
| Andorin | ... | 00:05 |
| coleys | hornets: Or Conky... | 00:05 |
| OttifantSir | hornets: I can see what I find in Synaptic, but I don't know one off the top of my head. | 00:06 |

| coleys | o.o | 00:06 |
| Andorin | f00dn00b: You're done. Please. The people at the FSF and GNU project know more about Linux than you. | 00:06 |

| jrib | !defaultapp | afv | 00:10 |
| ubottu | afv: To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. | 00:10 |
| Andorin | MaT-dg: Still registers as closed. Perhaps I should set my modem to DMZ as well? | 00:11 |

| coleys | Hilikus: do you want it to automount? or... | 00:12 |
| OttifantSir | Visualante: Catalyst is proprietary software, so you'll have to ask ATI for that, or someone else. I'm perfectly fine with mine. Which card is it? Good info to know as you move along. | 00:12 |
| Hilikus | how can i change the process icon for ff3.5. i changed it in the menus already | 00:12 |

| Visualante | jlaroche: just kidding with you. i'm not sure to be honest | 00:14 |
| safruhani | is it possible to change "remove" to "add" ? | 00:14 |
| safruhani | glitsj16: ^^ | 00:14 |
| OttifantSir | Visualante: This isn't so much about personal preference as the community's ability to help you. As it is proprietary software, it's closed-source, meaning it might not be possible to override the settings you already get. And again: What's your card? | 00:14 |
| f00dn00b | jrib: so is there anything i should watch out for? | 00:14 |
| blackest_knight | afv: thanks for that | 00:14 |
| syslq78 | jlaroche, well glxgear should give you some usefull info | 00:14 |
| erick | hablar español | 00:14 |
| afv | blackest_knight, just run "firefox-3.5" from a terminal, for example | 00:14 |
| Andorin | MaT-dg: I could check. | 00:14 |
| erick | español | 00:14 |
| epicreviews | hey everytime I start Ubuntu, I get the keyring login thing. Is there a way I can have it automatically log in? | 00:14 |
| coleys | Hilikus: I know... =P Do you care if it was to be mounted automcatically? | 00:14 |
| erick | jjejejej | 00:14 |
| jrib | f00dn00b: ask #winehq, I don't know about that | 00:14 |
| syslq78 | f00dn00b, no | 00:14 |
| LjL | !es | rick | 00:14 |

| LjL | !es | erick | 00:14 |
| ubottu | eplease see above | 00:14 |
| Visualante | OttifantSir: it's a 4850 card. | 00:14 |
| LjL | ugh | 00:14 |
| usr13 | Any advice? | 00:14 |
| epicreviews | hey everytime I start Ubuntu, I get the keyring login thing. Is there a way I can have it automatically log in? | 00:14 |
| syslq78 | f00dn00b, wine is just an api translator and you can not endanger your linux system trough it | 00:14 |
| Hilikus | coleys: no, i want the UI to be completly unaware of that partition | 00:14 |
| f00dn00b | hooray!!!! school days is running! wowee! in all its anime glory! | 00:15 |
| glitsj16 | safruhani: i think it is added by default, so my guess is that woudn't work but no hurt in trying it | 00:15 |
| Andorin | MaT-dg: I don't think it does. | 00:15 |
| MaT-dg | Andorin: check the linsys status page and see what IP Adress you find there (pm it to me) | 00:15 |
| Hilikus | coleys: if i mount it it's going to be mounted somewhere. mnt, media, etc | 00:15 |
| jlaroche | syslq78 - i guess I don't have glxgear installed... i get command not found | 00:15 |
| anom01y | hi, I have two computers with ubuntu installed to both, I need to transfer files from one to the other, how do I set up file sharing ? | 00:15 |
| f00dn00b | is it possible to play drmed media in ubuntu? | 00:15 |
| theTroy | any help please? how to access a desktop of a user in a terminal window (both users are on the same box) | 00:15 |
| usr13 | Anyone have any experience installing on an Acer Aspire AOA150-1635? Any pointers? | 00:15 |
| epicreviews | hey everytime I start Ubuntu, I get the keyring login thing. Is there a way I can have it automatically log in? | 00:16 |
| Visualante | f00dn00b: sure, i can't see why not. | 00:16 |
| theTroy | not SU, as it gives you cmd access, but actual video access | 00:16 |
| Hilikus | epicreviews: yes | 00:16 |
| jlaroche | so again, this should be a simple one - how do I check if my video drivers are installed properly? | 00:16 |
| f00dn00b | is there any way to "un-drm" media files? | 00:16 |
| jefinc | anom01y: you need to install the samba packages | 00:16 |
| blackest_knight | anom01y: can i suggest sshfs | 00:16 |
| syslq78 | jlaroche, well if your compiz works in all it's glory they are :) | 00:16 |
| pelmen | epicreviews: just create an empty password for keyring | 00:16 |
| Visualante | f00dn00b: of course, most DRM can be broken | 00:17 |
| binarymutant | how do I get nm-applet to stop trying to automatically connect to wifi when I login? | 00:17 |
| jlaroche | well they are not | 00:17 |
| cross | czesc | 00:17 |
| Ravious | anyone know of a way to add a sub directory to the sysfs? | 00:17 |
| f00dn00b | is it legal to un-drm files? | 00:17 |
| jrib | f00dn00b: ask your lawyer | 00:17 |
| anom01y | blackest_knight, do I need sshfs on the client or server or both ? | 00:17 |
| Hilikus | f00dn00b: i doubt it | 00:17 |
| mcr_ | f00dn00b no, and this isnt an ubuntu problem, its a "buying drm infested files" problem | 00:18 |
| Hilikus | any idea how to remove icons like xchat from the top right menu? it's already in the task bar, i don't want to have it twice | 00:18 |
| Hilikus | also the NM logo. this is a desktop and it's always connected | 00:18 |
| blackest_knight | sshfs works on any computer that is running ssh server ( if you have more than one pc you want that anyway sshfs can easily access any folder you have rights too it requires no advance configuration hense i have over a terabyte of storage on a netbook :) | 00:18 |
| coleys | Hilikus: What partition is it, and what file system? Ill post in a sec what to do. | 00:18 |
| jlaroche | I'm running ubuntu netbook remix 9.04 on an eee pc (model 1000HE). After installing and removing (purging) a program (eeepc-acpi-utilities) my compiz / desktop effects / maybe my video drivers were broken.... can anyone help? | 00:19 |
| Hilikus | coleys: it's fat32 | 00:19 |
| epicreviews | hey everytime I start Ubuntu, I get the keyring login thing. Is there a way I can have it automatically log in? | 00:19 |
| blackest_knight | anom01y: sshfs is run on the client open ssh server runs ons the server | 00:19 |
| jlaroche | how does one check if their video drivers are installed properly? | 00:19 |
| Hilikus | epicreviews: yes | 00:19 |
| arflebarfle | Hi. I am trying to figure out what is wrong with cheese or my kernel. It seems that when I use Cheese to record video that the uvc video driver for my webcam fails after I close Cheese. The next time I open Cheese the webcam driver has failed, so I see a test image. How can I reset the uvc driver state? | 00:19 |
| epicreviews | Hilikus... how? | 00:19 |
| pelmen | epicreviews: yes | 00:19 |
| Hilikus | epicreviews: can't remember, let me check | 00:19 |
| blackest_knight | anom01y: after years of getting fed up with samba shares and nfs sshfs is simply easy and secure | 00:20 |
| Hilikus | epicreviews: system/admin/login window | 00:20 |
| glitsj16 | jlaroche: one way would be to read the /var/log/Xorg.0.log and check for warnings (lines starting with (WW) and/or errors (EE) | 00:20 |
| arflebarfle | -- Oh, and I know the webcam driver has a problem, because the dmesg lists a uvcvideo problem. I think the webcam still works with skype usually, but for some reason Cheese makes the driver fail. | 00:20 |
| epicreviews | no I'm talking about the keyring thing | 00:21 |
| foul_owl | can ubuntu create and install to jffs2 out of the box? | 00:21 |
| safruhani | glitsj16: so what will i do ? | 00:21 |
| epicreviews | it brings up a keyring thing to connect to my wireless network | 00:21 |
| Hilikus | epicreviews: ooh after you login? | 00:21 |
| dryfyre | will wine work with mac programs | 00:21 |
| epicreviews | yeah | 00:21 |
| coleys | Hilikus: sudo gedit /etc/fstab add the following line '/dev/sda# /mnt/recovery cfat noauto,users,uid=1000,gid=100,umask=007 0 2' | 00:21 |
| arthur_ | question? i installed jaunty during instalation i checked no password required to log in option, is there a way to enable a user login now? so it takes user name and passwd to log in? | 00:21 |
| safruhani | glitsj16: the web site u have given before not include about this situation | 00:21 |
| OttifantSir | Visualante: I googled your card and problem and found an archive-post in the forums that seems to deal with your problem. It's long, and it seems the first steps aren't correct, so read the entire thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-893937.html | 00:21 |
| dryfyre | thnx | 00:21 |
| coleys | sda# being the partion #, it might be sdb or something change accordinglty. | 00:21 |
| Ravious | anyone know of a way to add a directory to sysfs? | 00:21 |
| Hilikus | coleys: why would i need an entry in fstab?? | 00:21 |
| Hilikus | that'll remove it from the menu? | 00:22 |
| dryfyre | any way i can work mac like i can with ubuntu w/ windows inside ubuntu | 00:22 |
| coleys | Hilikus: its the noauto that will do its magic, it will be hidden from nautilus and not mounted due to noauto | 00:22 |
| f00dn00b | 糞 | 00:22 |
| glitsj16 | safruhani: can you pastebin your /etc/mpd.conf and /etc/init.d/mpd somewhere? i can take a look, and so can others | 00:22 |
| jschiff | dryfyre: not legally | 00:22 |
| f00dn00b | my x server just bastardised | 00:22 |
| Hilikus | coleys: there must be a way to disable it without making it mountable in fstab | 00:22 |
| Hilikus | no? | 00:22 |
| jlaroche | glitsj16 - i have a few WW's but no EE's | 00:22 |
| hornets | coleys: DUDE | 00:22 |
| hornets | that app is teh shit. | 00:23 |
| owen1 | i created a 2GB partition on my usb-drive and put ubuntu via usb-creator. when i reboot i see frozen black screen with blinking cursur. any clues? | 00:23 |
| arthur_ | question? i installed jaunty during instalation i checked no password required to log in option, is there a way to enable a user login now? so it takes user name and passwd to log in? | 00:23 |
| dryfyre | oh well thats a bust | 00:23 |
| syslq78 | f00dn00b, dunno, I dont have any problem with any of my ubuntu installations and there are several of them | 00:23 |
| dryfyre | yas thru users | 00:23 |
| glitsj16 | jlaroche: than things look fine :) ... do you experience any quirks? | 00:23 |
| the9a3eedi | Hi. Am I the only one who seems to be getting a lot of totoally random X crashes? It's pretty annoying. I think it's either caused by firefox, or by compiz fusion, or perhaps a glitch? | 00:23 |
| safruhani | glitsj16: /etc/init.d/mpd http://pastebin.com/f272c2978 | 00:23 |
| f00dn00b | i suppose thats what i get for upgrading to the development branch of karmic =S | 00:23 |
| coleys | hornets: Oh yeah =)? | 00:23 |
| safruhani | glitsj16: /etc/mpd.conf http://pastebin.com/f4d8796e3 | 00:23 |
| mcr_ | or a memory problem | 00:23 |
| jlaroche | glitsj16 - I'm running ubuntu netbook remix 9.04 on an eee pc (model 1000HE). After installing and removing (purging) a program (eeepc-acpi-utilities) my compiz / desktop effects / maybe my video drivers were broken.... can anyone help? | 00:23 |
| coleys | hornets: Just what you were looking for? | 00:23 |
| arflebarfle | I gather that no one knows what is wrong with Cheese and uvcvideo, or how to reset the driver. Do you know of a better program than Cheese that will record audio and video? | 00:23 |
| glitsj16 | safruhani: okay, i'll take a look and report back | 00:23 |
| blackest_knight | anom01y example sshfs me@192.168.2.1:/home/me /home/me/sshfs/ (mounts the home folder of me on the remote system in home/me/sshfs (this folder could be called anything just make sure its empty) | 00:23 |
| jlaroche | glitsj16 - my UNR GUI is running slow as molasses and my desktop effects are off (and won't let me turn them on) | 00:24 |
| sadris | Is there anyway I can skip the Paritioning step in the Ubuntu installer? I have a special way that I want my XFS partition done and I had already done it ahead of time. | 00:24 |
| glitsj16 | jlaroche: not familiar with netbook remix, but have you tried to reinstall eeepc-acpi-utilities yet? | 00:24 |
| coleys | sadris: Custome Partition. Is what you will want. | 00:24 |
| anom01y | blackest_knight, I have the server running (sshd), but I can't use sshfs.. I keep getting "missing host" when I use sshfs 192.169.0.100 | 00:24 |
| coleys | sadris: Custom Partitioning* | 00:25 |
| arflebarfle | the9a3eedi: I have heard of a lot of X crashes from others. In recent times I have mostly been experiencing network problems, and now the webcam driver problem. | 00:25 |
| dryfyre | any way i can expand to two monitors | 00:25 |
| jlaroche | glitsj16 - yes... did that way before I groveled to IRC for help | 00:25 |
| arthur_ | question? i installed jaunty during installation i checked no password required to log in option, is there a way to enable a user login now? so it takes user name and passwd to log in? ??? | 00:25 |
| arflebarfle | the9a3eedi: what driver are you using with X.org? | 00:25 |
| the9a3eedi | arflebarfle, official nvidia drivers | 00:25 |
| VCoolio | arthur_: system > administration > login window, there an option there to check | 00:25 |
| igsen | !Mixer | 00:25 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about Mixer | 00:25 |
| glitsj16 | jlaroche: only suggestion i have is to check launchpad for possible bugs on that --> bugs.launchpad.net | 00:26 |
| darkhamm | hey people, i only want to know if for gnu/linux we have something like the remote control for the iphone, but for symbian and others.... | 00:26 |
| the9a3eedi | arflebarfle, speaking of network, I seem to have wierd wireless issues.. but I doubt it's the problem with X | 00:26 |
| the9a3eedi | it just crashes totally randomly | 00:26 |
| dryfyre | any way to expand to two monitors | 00:26 |
| foul_owl | anyone know how to fix grub error 2? | 00:26 |
| the9a3eedi | well, seemingly randomly | 00:26 |
| arflebarfle | the9a3eedi: oh, well I am using nvidia hardware too, but I am using older nvidia hardware for the most part. One machine is using a newer Ubuntu than the other though. I avoid upgrading Ubuntu because every upgrade is like 2 steps forward and 1 step back. | 00:26 |
| coleys | glitsj16: Yes. =o | 00:26 |
| coleys | darkhamm: Yes& | 00:26 |
| sadris | coleys: I believe I am already using that; I set up the LVM and raid1 with the Manually Partition option in partman, for the XFS, I am going to another terminal and making the partition | 00:26 |
| jlaroche | glitsj16 - so basically, if a package breaks something essential in Ubuntu you basically just have to reinstall your entire OS? | 00:27 |
| dryfyre | is there a hackers irc channel | 00:27 |
| coleys | sadris: You need to specifiy the install locations from the installer. It is a mandatory step. | 00:27 |
| blackest_knight | anom01y: you need your user name eg anom01y@192.169.0.100/ <-example mounting remote root /home/anom01y/myremoteroot/ | 00:27 |
| coleys | sadris: Otherwise you are not specifiying where to install everything. | 00:27 |
| watino | If I dd an iso of a live cd to a partition and flag it as boot, should it work? | 00:27 |
| darkhamm | coleys: tell me more | 00:27 |
| coleys | darkhamm: Bluetooth? Infrared | 00:27 |
| darkhamm | coleys: bluetooth | 00:28 |
| arflebarfle | the9a3eedi: someone told me that the Intel video cards have better support, and the drivers are open source, but from what I have seen there are bugs there too, and the OpenGL support may not be as good for gaming or CAD in some cases. | 00:28 |
| sXeChris | guys what is a good program for recording videos? | 00:28 |
| coleys | darkhamm: Bluetooth is preinstalled if available on computer, so you have the icon in your system tray, and you can pair devices quite easily. | 00:28 |
| safruhani | thanks for your patience glitsj16 | 00:29 |
| Dreki | every time i mount an ISO image every file on the image has ;1 behind it, anyone know why? | 00:29 |
| blackest_knight | sXeChris: depends on the source | 00:29 |
| coleys | sXeChris: gtkRecordMyDesktop? | 00:29 |
| the9a3eedi | arflebarfle, Intel drivers are probably the best out there from what I heard. Too bad their cards suck | 00:29 |
| sXeChris | coleys | 00:29 |
| sXeChris | any other one? | 00:29 |
| sXeChris | cuz that one lags | 00:29 |
| the9a3eedi | guess I really can't do much about this | 00:29 |
| nellmathew | hey guys i was wondering, is there a vm or something similar that allows me to run a virtual machine or install an operating system to a partition from within ubuntu (key: to a PARTITION, not to a "virtual disk") | 00:29 |
| glitsj16 | safruhani: going to reply to your paste, please give me a few minutes, can i PM you on this? | 00:29 |
| danbhfive | !screencast | sXeChris | 00:29 |
| coleys | sXeChris: It depends on your graphics chipset, of course. =o | 00:29 |
| ubottu | sXeChris: Some programs to capture your screen are recordmydesktop, Istanbul, Wink, Xvidcap, pyvnc2swf. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. | 00:29 |
| the9a3eedi | though I also think it seems to crash when I open websites that use flash | 00:29 |
| the9a3eedi | stupid flash :/ | 00:30 |
| darkhamm | coleys: yes, all right, but what can i use on a phone like n70 nokia for the remote control? | 00:30 |
| f00dn00b | has anyone has any serious x server issues in karmic alpha? | 00:30 |
| lstarnes | nellmathew: I know that kvm/qemu can. I think virtualbox might be able to as well | 00:30 |
| f00dn00b | mine keeps dying every 10mins or so | 00:30 |
| f00dn00b | really annoying! | 00:30 |
| arflebarfle | nellmathew: I think that qemu can do that. I seem to recall it has the ability to directly access a partition, amongst the virtual disk image formats. | 00:30 |
| coleys | darkhamm: does it have bluetooth? | 00:30 |
| darkhamm | coleys: yes, | 00:30 |
| sudo_killall_tro | shutit f00dn00b | 00:30 |
| coleys | !bluetooth | darkhamm | 00:30 |
| ubottu | darkhamm: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 00:30 |
| f00dn00b | !x | 00:30 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 00:30 |
| blackest_knight | f00dn00b: not that serious but i've had ffox crash and reset my desktop | 00:31 |
| Dreki | every time i mount an ISO image every file on the image has ;1 behind it, anyone know why? | 00:31 |
| nellmathew | lstarnes, arflebarfle: thanks! i'll check out qemu | 00:31 |
| f00dn00b | lol same here | 00:31 |
| jlaroche | compiz broken - I have error messages I can share - please help | 00:31 |
| danbhfive | !karmic | f00dn00b | 00:31 |
| ubottu | f00dn00b: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 00:31 |
| f00dn00b | pretty much anything that can happen has happened to my x server lol! | 00:31 |
| coleys | Dreki: How are you mounting it? | 00:31 |
| f00dn00b | and dont worry i know what karmic is danbhfive lol! | 00:31 |
| arflebarfle | Is there a good way to restore the Ctrl-Alt-Backspace behavior in Ubuntu? I would like the ability to restart X sometimes, and it seems that I lost that recently. | 00:31 |
| coleys | f00dn00b: doubt it. | 00:31 |
| coleys | arflebarfle: !dontzap | 00:32 |
| f00dn00b | i've been using it for the past few days | 00:32 |
| coleys | !dontzap | arflebarfle | 00:32 |
| ubottu | arflebarfle: 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. | 00:32 |
| f00dn00b | yes i know about dontzap | 00:32 |
| Dreki | coleys right click and open with archive mounter | 00:32 |
| danbhfive | f00dn00b: yeah, but you should bring it's discussion to #ubuntu+1 | 00:32 |
| nmatrix9 | anyone know Fezie? | 00:32 |
| OttifantSir | jlaroche: in terminal, do "dpkg -l xserver-xorg-video-intel" and see if you have that driver. I believe that's the correct one for your graphics card. | 00:32 |
| f00dn00b | i always disable dontzap cos its annoying not to be able to reset the x server | 00:32 |
| sudo_killall_tro | shut up f00dn00b | 00:32 |
| sudo_killall_tro | you are a troll | 00:33 |
| === ^Einstei1 is now known as ^Einstein | ||
| sudo_killall_tro | f00dn00b is a troll! | 00:33 |
| LjL | calm down | 00:33 |
| sudo_killall_tro | me? | 00:33 |
| arflebarfle | why was the support for Ctrl-Alt-Backspace removed from Ubuntu? | 00:33 |
| LjL | f00dn00b: karmic is for discussion in #ubuntu+1, not here | 00:33 |
| jrib | arflebarfle: that was an xorg decision | 00:33 |
| arflebarfle | err, I mean in the default install | 00:33 |
| danbhfive | f00dn00b: I think there is another x kill command: SysRq+k | 00:33 |
| arflebarfle | oh | 00:33 |
| f00dn00b | apparently, people used to commonly accidentally knock ctrlaltbs by mistake | 00:33 |
| f00dn00b | so it became disable by default | 00:34 |
| darkhamm | coleys: the ubuntu pages means articles for sony ericsson... nothing more? | 00:34 |
| f00dn00b | i know about srq+k, but c+a+bs is like second nature to me lol | 00:34 |
| _Apple_ | can I get some help setting up dual monitors? | 00:34 |
| Dreki | coleys: any idea what ;1 at the end of a file means? | 00:34 |
| blackest_knight | arflebarfle: probably to stop people instantly resetting desktop and crashing any apps running( and worse if using ext4) | 00:34 |
| sudo_killall_tro | f00dn00b, you are trolling | 00:34 |
| sudo_killall_tro | please leave *at once* | 00:34 |
| f00dn00b | ? | 00:35 |
| jrib | sudo_killall_tro: stop please | 00:35 |
| coleys | Dreki: sudo mount file.iso /location/ -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 | 00:35 |
| sudo_killall_tro | oh, sorry | 00:35 |
| sudo_killall_tro | f00dn00b, i think we should continue this in /msg | 00:35 |
| f00dn00b | um... how about no... | 00:35 |
| _Apple_ | Dual Monitor set up? any takers? | 00:36 |
| epicreviews | how do I kill plasma/kde ? | 00:36 |
| blackest_knight | sudo_killall_tro: your gettin too stressed for little reason. | 00:36 |
| coleys | darkhamm: No if you have bluetooth it will work =P | 00:36 |
| sudo_killall_tro | as if i am | 00:36 |
| darkhamm | coleys: oh great, i try | 00:36 |
| sudo_killall_tro | stop being so o/o/o | 00:36 |
| Dreki | coleys thank you i will try that | 00:36 |
| jrib | f00dn00b: it would be a shame if sudo_killall_tro got banned don't you think? | 00:36 |
| sudo_killall_tro | i just said he was a troll | 00:37 |
| f00dn00b | i'm not a troll | 00:37 |
| arthur_ | question? i installed jaunty during installation i checked no password required to log in option, is there a way to enable a user login now? i went to /system/admin/login window but not sure excatly to check? i see where i can enable automatic login for a user...help | 00:37 |
| arflebarfle | If trolls have no one to speak to, and no one reacts, do they continue? | 00:37 |
| sudo_killall_tro | fine, i'll stop | 00:37 |
| coleys | arthur_: Login Window > Security | 00:37 |
| epicreviews | how do I go back to Gnome desktop? I accidentally started KDE | 00:37 |
| f00dn00b | i'm not a troll | 00:37 |
| rski | epicreviews: logout | 00:37 |
| coleys | epicreviews: Log out, click Sessions > Gnome | 00:37 |
| rski | epicreviews: and login | 00:37 |
| coleys | epicreviews: Then relogin. | 00:37 |
| arflebarfle | I have never in my life seen any good come from someone saying "don't feed the trolls" or calling someone a troll. | 00:37 |
| owen1 | can i boot a live CD from a usb hard-drive? (not flash) | 00:38 |
| halberd | is there a guide for using ubuntu without the command line? I want to set my mom up with ubuntu | 00:38 |
| coleys | owen1: Yes, unetbootin. | 00:38 |
| coleys | !unetbootin | owen1 | 00:38 |
| ubottu | owen1: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 00:38 |
| halberd | ubuntu for nontechnical people | 00:38 |
| stroyan | Dreki: The trailing ";1' is an iso9660 standard file version number. It is normally suppressed by linux unless you mount the iso with a "map=off" option. | 00:38 |
| rski | halberd: remove all shortcuts for firing up the terminal? | 00:38 |
| owen1 | coleys: are u sure it support HARD DRIVES? | 00:38 |
| arthur__ | i went to security tab but not sure wich option to check... | 00:38 |
| coleys | owen1: Yes. | 00:38 |
| K99Brain | arthur_, you are in the right place. disable automatic login if you want to be asked for the login pass | 00:38 |
| afv | arthur_, System > Administration > Users and Groups | 00:39 |
| mzz | halberd: worked for me (although I do still do a bit of maintenance and tend to resort to the commandline for that because I'm used to it) | 00:39 |
| BigJack | How do i change the "login:" prompt in sshd ? | 00:39 |
| halberd | like for example, mounting an external hard disk | 00:39 |
| blackest_knight | arthur_ go to system admin login window and lok under the security tab | 00:39 |
| halberd | how do you do that in ubuntu without the mnt command? | 00:39 |
| mzz | halberd: connect hard disk, wait for it to automount :) | 00:39 |
| arthur__ | ok | 00:39 |
| coleys | owen1: You can install unetbootin from command line if you have jaunty. | 00:39 |
| halberd | mzz it doesn't seem to have done so | 00:39 |
| === Paddy_NI_ is now known as Paddy_NI | ||
| coleys | owen1: sudo apt-get install unetbootin | 00:39 |
| peeingforlife | yo peeps wah gwan g? | 00:39 |
| halberd | mzz but it mounts fine with sudo mount /dev/sdc1 <destination> | 00:40 |
| mzz | halberd: worked for me last time I tried it, although that wasn't an actual hard disk, it was flash storage (that *might* matter) | 00:40 |
| igsen | !cp | 00:40 |
| marks256 | i have a terminal network setup. Is it possible to "pipe" program to other users? | 00:40 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about cp | 00:40 |
| trend | when I do apt-get install ahtwever i get: 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.40 80] | 00:40 |
| mzz | halberd: also, there's a gui fstab editor that may be of use. I forgot the name, sorry. | 00:40 |
| coleys | trend: sudo apt-get update | 00:40 |
| halberd | mzz so it has to be in fstab? | 00:40 |
| mzz | halberd: like I said: last time I plugged in an external drive it just mounted. Internal drives are a bit different. | 00:41 |
| Raydiation | is there a way to find mp3s with missing id3 tags? | 00:41 |
| Raydiation | like no title? | 00:41 |
| lstarnes | trend: which version of ubuntu are you using? | 00:41 |
| trend | and it tells me to apt-get update.. which I do, but that errors out to w/: http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php | 00:41 |
| coleys | Raydiation: Beagle? | 00:41 |
| BigJack | halberd: you need to edit /etc/fstab | 00:41 |
| mzz | Raydiation: there are utilities for that, but I haven't used any of them recently, sorry. | 00:41 |
| alexander_ | HEllo all! | 00:41 |
| arflebarfle | If I want to reset the webcam driver to restore the working driver state, so that cheese works again, is there any potential problem with unplugging the USB cable, and plugging it back in? | 00:41 |
| owen1 | coleys: the title say FromUSBStick not usb hard drive.. | 00:41 |
| alexander_ | I really love ubuntu! | 00:41 |
| trend | Istarnes how can I tell :/ | 00:41 |
| danbhfive | trend: that link was bad | 00:41 |
| trend | lol.. | 00:41 |
| blackest_knight | halberd: easiest way is add diskmounter to your top panel right click top panel and add diskmounter all other drives will show up on there and you can mount from there | 00:41 |
| coleys | owen1: It works for harddrives, it specifically has an option for harddrives. =o | 00:42 |
| mzz | halberd: if you do need to edit fstab for some reason there's some gui thing out there to do it with, but that isn't actually much more convenient than opening it in your favorite editor running as root. | 00:42 |
| lstarnes | trend: lsb_release -r | 00:42 |
| imnotgayjustles | hi | 00:42 |
| alexander_ | ubuntu!!! (L) | 00:42 |
| marks256 | i have a terminal network setup. Is it possible to "pipe" program to other users? say if one user was running a program, could that user just pipe the program to another user? | 00:42 |
| mzz | halberd: so if this really is an external drive you'll probably want to figure out why it's not automounting and fix that. | 00:42 |
| Raydiation | coleys: thats not the same as tracker right? | 00:42 |
| K99Brain | trend, paste us the file /etc/apt/sources.list | 00:42 |
| trend | http://pastebin.ca/1492130 | 00:42 |
| halberd | mzz the thing is, that is not a problem for me | 00:42 |
| coleys | Raydiation: Beagle is search utility for gnome desktop | 00:42 |
| halberd | but it might be a problem for my mom | 00:42 |
| coleys | !beagle | Raydiation | 00:42 |
| ubottu | Raydiation: Services to index files for fast searching include: Beagle (front-ends: beagle, catfish, gnome-main-menu, mozilla-beagle for !GNOME; kerry, kio-beagle for !KDE; beaglefs for !CLI) - Tracker (tracker-search-tool, libdeskbar-tracker for GNOME; tracker-utils for CLI) - Strigi (strigi-applet, strigi-client for KDE, strigi-utils for CLI) - Kat (for KDE) - Pinot (and pinot-applet for GNOME) - Doodle (for CLI) | 00:42 |
| trend | Release:7.10 | 00:42 |
| mzz | marks256: I'm pretty sure you could do that via a named pipe (or netcat if the users aren't on the same system) | 00:42 |
| lstarnes | trend: ubuntu 7.10 is no longer supported | 00:43 |
| BigJack | halberd: i just had to do this for a server i built with extra hds. google "ubuntu mount hard drives on startup fstab" they'll tell you how to add lines for each drive | 00:43 |
| lstarnes | trend: change the mirror that you're using to http://old-releases.ubuntu.com and upgrade | 00:43 |
| marks256 | mzz, how does that work? all users are on the same central server | 00:43 |
| sadris | anyone know how i can specify custom format options to mkfs in the Ubuntu installer? | 00:43 |
| halberd | BigJack, I know how to do that | 00:43 |
| trend | oh, ok.. thanks! | 00:43 |
| halberd | but it would intimidate my mom | 00:43 |
| mzz | marks256: try "man mkfifo" | 00:43 |
| BigJack | oh.. just set up ssh for yourself | 00:43 |
| K99Brain | trend, ok, gutsy is NOT a LSB release and the support and security updates i think are finished | 00:44 |
| blackest_knight | halberd: just add the diskmounter applet to the top panel | 00:44 |
| K99Brain | trend, upgrade to hardy, al least | 00:44 |

| lstarnes | K99Brain: LTS, not LSB | 00:44 |
| Hilikus | lol | 00:44 |
| K99Brain | lstarnes, LOL, sorry | 00:44 |
| mzz | marks256: you create one of those, making sure the target user can read it and the source user can write it, then the source user runs their pipeline ending in "> thatnamedpipe" and the target user runs "< thatnamedpipe" into their end of the pipeline. | 00:44 |
| mzz | marks256: I'd expect that to work, but it's not like I've done it recently. | 00:44 |
| dhq | i have a dell m1530 now i have 3 jacks which support 5.1 channel. the problem is i cant get kubuntu to work with i | 00:45 |
| meoblast001 | hello | 00:45 |
| marks256 | mzz, woh that is confusing :) all these new terms :D | 00:45 |
| K99Brain | lstarnes, i was thinking to the lsb_release command, lol | 00:45 |
| meoblast001 | my mom's computer is acting extremely weird.... after so long, her cursor won't click nor change states.... i reinstalled her system and it didn't fix it | 00:45 |
| meoblast001 | any idea of what could be wrong? | 00:45 |
| trend | how can I upgrade by the command line? edit http://pastebin.com/m65eb7a31 to what? | 00:45 |
| owen1 | coleys: is it possible to install .iso into my usb hard drive? or do i have to burn a CD? | 00:45 |
| lstarnes | meoblast001: sounds like a hardware problem | 00:45 |
| mzz | marks256: they take a little getting used to, and they're not that useful if you're a single user and have a nonancient shell. | 00:45 |
| Quatroking | hey there | 00:45 |
| Hilikus | meoblast001: maybe the mouse? | 00:46 |
| BigJack | try a new mouse | 00:46 |
| coleys | owen1: Unetbootin. | 00:46 |
| BigJack | lol | 00:46 |
| marks256 | mzz, what exactly is a pipe? i just know the word. honestly i got this idea from the TV show 24... :$ | 00:46 |
| BigJack | or check your memory? that does weird stuff | 00:46 |
| meoblast001 | Hilikus: no... because the cursor state doesn't actually change (wait, ready, resize) | 00:46 |
| Quatroking | I've got a 64-bit CPU, but from Intel and not AMD. Do I need the 64-bit iso or the i386? | 00:46 |
| Dreki | coleys i tried what you said to mount that iso and got "/dev/loop: No such file or directory" | 00:46 |
| coleys | owen1: Unetbootin installs iso to usbs/harddrives, aswell as a bootloader for them, so at boot of your computer you will have the option to boot that device. | 00:46 |
| rski | Quatroking: both work | 00:46 |
| Hilikus | meoblast001: this is in ubuntu? | 00:46 |
| meoblast001 | lstarnes: is there actually a specific piece of hardware dedicated to clicking and changing the mouse state? | 00:46 |
| lstarnes | Quatroking: use either | 00:46 |
| meoblast001 | Hilikus: yes | 00:46 |
| coleys | Dreki: sudo mount file.iso /location/ -t iso9660 -o ro,loop | 00:46 |
| owen1 | coleys: ok. sudo unetbootin. i'll try it now. btw, i have 2GB partition on my usb drive. it's FAT32. is it ok? | 00:46 |
| mzz | marks256: a "pipe" or "pipeline" is a frequently used term for a sequence of two or more commands with output from one being input to the next | 00:46 |
| Ravious | anyone know how to add an empty directory to the sysfs? | 00:46 |
| lstarnes | meoblast001: the button of the mouse itself has something to do with it | 00:47 |
| beware | a pipe as i know it is a conceptual object which a data stream goes in on one end, and comes out at the other | 00:47 |
| Quatroking | rski: so the AMD64 iso just works on intel cpu's too, as long as they're 64-bit? | 00:47 |
| coleys | owen1: Yes. | 00:47 |
| meoblast001 | lstarnes: well.. it won't change states (ready, wait, resize) | 00:47 |
| coleys | Quatroking: Yes. | 00:47 |
| rski | Quatroking: yes | 00:47 |
| mzz | marks256: (so when you're using "|" in a shell command) | 00:47 |
| Quatroking | Then the description is awfully confusing. | 00:47 |
| coleys | owen1: And the command is... sudo apt-get install unetbootin | 00:47 |
| marks256 | mzz, oh ok... | 00:47 |
| rski | Quatroking: report it as a bug then | 00:47 |
| Hilikus | Quatroking: agree | 00:47 |
| seeks | So, does anyone here use samba at all? | 00:47 |
| mzz | Quatroking: historical reasons. | 00:47 |
| OttifantSir | Quatroking: do as rski said. | 00:47 |
| meoblast001 | Hilikus: lstarnes: i'm thinking about just downgrading her to 8.10, is there a chance that will work? | 00:47 |
| coleys | Hilikus: Work for yeah :)? | 00:48 |
| marks256 | mzz, i've only used the | command once or twice but i think i know how it works. basically it takes the output of one program and puts it into the input of another, right? | 00:48 |
| lstarnes | meoblast001: possibly, but I;m not sure | 00:48 |
| K99Brain | trend, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades | 00:48 |
| Ravious | seeks: samba&nfs | 00:48 |
| mzz | Quatroking: I'm probably oversimplifying, but roughly it's intel adopting an architecture first used by amd in their athlon64 cpus. | 00:48 |
| BigJack | seeks: i use samba | 00:48 |
| mzz | Quatroking: (for extra confusion: intel has an older 64 bit architecture that's completely different) | 00:48 |
| seeks | Righto, well, I've got at a pretty simple question about it | 00:48 |
| Hilikus | coleys: no, i don't really want to add an fstab for that. there must be a way to tell it to just ignore it | 00:48 |
| mzz | marks256: yep | 00:48 |
| seeks | Regarding the "get" command, how do I use wildcards? | 00:48 |
| danbhfive | trend: try: sudo do-release-upgrade | 00:48 |
| majnoon | i usually just back up important stuffs and do a CLEAN install | 00:48 |
| meoblast001 | ok.... i have a Hardy 64-bit live cd... i'l try that | 00:48 |
| meoblast001 | brb | 00:48 |
| marks256 | mzz, sweet i'll look into mkfifo and play around with it :) | 00:48 |
| seeks | I've got some long, convoluted filenames, haha. | 00:49 |
| coleys | Hilikus: there isn't in nautilus. Dolphin has the option to hide. (If you like KDE) | 00:49 |
| beware | amd64 == em64t == the normal 64 bits architecture supported by modern i386 based PC's | 00:49 |
| trend | danbhfive cool.. thanks! | 00:49 |
| mzz | marks256: oh, and another option is to use sudo inside a regular pipeline. | 00:49 |
| SHOOT3R | you guys care to help me with this install of ubuntu? I'm getting an error message on install | 00:49 |
| trend | K99Brain thanks :) | 00:49 |
| owen1 | coleys: i am doing it now. last time a tried (usb-creator) i got black frozen screen with blinking cursur.. | 00:49 |
| danbhfive | trend: let me know if it works | 00:49 |
| beware | (as opposed to ia64 which is an older architecture for some server CPU's) | 00:49 |
| marks256 | mzz, and how is that done? | 00:49 |
| coleys | owen1: unetbootin is awesome, I expect sucess. =) | 00:49 |
| mzz | marks256: but to do that you need root (or at least need to convince root to give you the necessary sudo privs) | 00:49 |
| mzz | marks256: you know what sudo does? | 00:49 |
| lstarnes | trend: try http://pastebin.com/d1a9f6093 | 00:49 |
| owen1 | coleys: btw, i've been told it's only working with live cd, so alternat-CD will not work. | 00:49 |
| marks256 | mzz, lol yes :) | 00:49 |
| Hilikus | coleys: well nautilus is getting the info that there is a device that can be mounted from somewhere, so maybe not nautilus but a system setting to hide that device as mountable | 00:50 |
| lstarnes | trend: after doing that, run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 00:50 |
| BigJack | seeks: i'm a samba noob too. but if you're trying to access a path in command line use quotes "" cd "/path/to file with spaces.whatever" | 00:50 |
| === dipplum_ is now known as dipplum | ||
| lstarnes | trend: then you should be able to upgrade to 8.04 using sudo do-release-upgrade | 00:50 |
| BigJack | that's all i can help with that | 00:50 |
| _Apple_ | can some one please help me? | 00:50 |
| coleys | Hilikus: If you search google, there is weird changes you can make. | 00:50 |
| cobra-the-joker | hey there guys ...i have got 2 issues here with a laptop | 00:50 |
| trend | lstarnes cool.. i'm doing do-release-upgrade right now | 00:50 |
| coleys | !question | _Apple_ | 00:50 |
| ubottu | _Apple_: 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. :-) | 00:50 |
| mzz | marks256: well, if you have a pipeline that generates output for a command that needs to run as root, you can do "blah | sudo command", if you know what I mean, and "blah" runs as you while "command" runs as root. "sudo" can take -u to switch to a non-root user. | 00:50 |
| sXeChris | why does my computer start lagging like crazy whenever i open gtk-recordmydesktop? | 00:50 |
| cobra-the-joker | one .....i cant get the wireless working in the pavilon HP | 00:51 |
| seeks | BigJack: Nah, I'm actually just copying files from one area to another in the terminal. In linux, I can just type "cp *avi" to get an avi | 00:51 |
| _Apple_ | can some one please help me set up my monitors | 00:51 |
| owen1 | coleys: see u soon, i am rebooting | 00:51 |
| coleys | cobra-the-joker: lspci | grep -i network | 00:51 |
| Dreki | coleys thanks that worked | 00:51 |
| mzz | marks256: but that only works if the user typing that is allowed to sudo to the other user. The mkfifo approach I mentioned doesn't need any special privs like that. | 00:51 |
| coleys | Dreki: =) | 00:51 |
| mzz | marks256: so they're different use cases. | 00:51 |
| coleys | owen1: Okay! | 00:51 |
| cobra-the-joker | coleys ....i dont have it right now ..its for my freind | 00:51 |
| Ravious | _Apple_: Whats the problem your having setting them up? | 00:51 |
| cobra-the-joker | it seem to be working | 00:51 |
| seeks | BigJack: But with the samba thing, I have to use "get," and the wildcard doesn't work with that. I'm just curious if there's something I'm missing | 00:51 |
| safruhani | sometimes i see phy0 process on running, but i couldn't find what it is doing ... ? | 00:51 |
| coleys | cobra-the-joker: I need to know his chipset to be able to help. | 00:51 |
| cobra-the-joker | but i cant enable the switch ...its touch | 00:52 |
| Hilikus | coleys: ill try that, thanks a lot man | 00:52 |
| BigJack | seeks: ah. no idea abou that one. sorry | 00:52 |
| mzz | seeks: err? just mount the partition? | 00:52 |
| coleys | Hilikus: No problem =) | 00:52 |
| seeks | BigJack: Ha, no prob. Thanks anyway. | 00:52 |
| marks256 | mzz, ok. would you be kind enough to step me through how to do something basic? i just want to see it work, then i can play with it myself | 00:52 |
| cobra-the-joker | coleys , is there is any way to force the wireless switch | 00:52 |
| cobra-the-joker | ? | 00:52 |
| seeks | mzz: Well, I'm really quite the samba newbie. I actually haven't gotten that far yet | 00:52 |
| coleys | cobra-the-joker: Bios? | 00:53 |
| seeks | mzz: It gives me problems trying to mount it, but no problems if I just use "smbclient," for whatever reason. | 00:53 |
| _Apple_ | Ravious: I've spent the past 5 hours trying to set up Dual monitors | 00:53 |
| _Apple_ | and I have no thing show for it | 00:53 |
| coleys | Dreki: to unmount after using that command type: sudo umount file.iso OR sudo umount /location/ | 00:53 |
| mzz | seeks: try "mount -t cifs '\\1.2.3.4\sharename' /mnt" iirc | 00:53 |
| jlaroche | _Apple_ - sounds like a typical Ubuntu moment | 00:53 |
| jlaroche | _Apple_ - spending more time fixing then doing | 00:53 |
| Ravious | _Apple_: how far have you gotten? issues? whats going on with them? | 00:54 |
| mzz | marks256: like what? | 00:54 |
| cobra-the-joker | coleys , i think | 00:54 |
| _Apple_ | Ravious: I've gotten numerous errors and finally got some of them to go away but still can't get the resolutions to differ | 00:54 |
| marks256 | mzz, oh i don't know. about send a simple gedit window to another user? | 00:54 |
| marks256 | mzz, how about* lol | 00:54 |
| mzz | marks256: err, what? How do you "send" a window? | 00:55 |
| Ali_nz | hiya peoples | 00:55 |

| coleys | Dreki: Figured it would come up =) No problem. | 00:55 |
| sXeChris | why do i lag so much whenever i start GTK-recordmydesktop? | 00:55 |
| Ali_nz | in the gui, ubunutu should have native support for NTFS drives right? | 00:55 |
| saif | the wmv is not working | 00:55 |
| saif | i have ubuntu 8.1 | 00:55 |
| _Apple_ | Ravious: ones an VGA the other is a composite | 00:55 |
| mzz | Ali_nz: works for me | 00:56 |
| coleys | Ali_nz: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g | 00:56 |
| marks256 | mzz, that's what i'm asking. If i had one user that had gedit up, could they send that running program to another user. | 00:56 |
| Ali_nz | coleys: yeah I have done that | 00:56 |
| sXeChris | why do i lag so much whenever i start GTK-recordmydesktop? | 00:56 |
| sXeChris | Please someone? | 00:56 |
| sXeChris | i really need help | 00:56 |
| BigJack | sXeChris: hardware too slow for it? | 00:56 |
| sXeChris | :-( | 00:56 |
| coleys | Ali_nz: sudo apt-get install ntfs-config | 00:56 |
| FloodBot3 | sXeChris: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:56 |
| Ali_nz | I can double click on the drive (nothing happens) or click mount | 00:56 |
| mzz | marks256: err, why would that involve a pipeline? Just save it somewhere and make sure the other user can read the file | 00:56 |
| Ali_nz | and and says can mount file (from memory) | 00:56 |
| K99Brain | saif, install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package | 00:56 |
| sXeChris | bigjack my hardware can't be better! i have quad core with 4 g ram | 00:56 |
| transMIssion | i read the article how to change cpu freq but i cant set the cpu_min_freq... or if i do it doesnt change. What did i do wrong? | 00:56 |
| marks256 | mzz, i'm using a LTSP setup. So i'm wondering if i can "route" a window from one user's terminal to another user's terminal | 00:56 |
| Ravious | _Apple what make? nvidia ati? | 00:56 |
| mzz | marks256: I don't think I understand what you're trying to do | 00:56 |
| marks256 | mzz, yeah i know, but that's no fun | 00:56 |
| BigJack | then i dunno. i'm a noob | 00:57 |
| BigJack | lol | 00:57 |
| _Apple_ | Ravious: I can get it to display if im in like low graphics mode but them I"m running at 8x6 on both monitors | 00:57 |
| marks256 | mzz, Ok. i'll do another example | 00:57 |
| saif | <K99Brain>: how is that done | 00:57 |
| sXeChris | why do i lag so much whenever i start GTK-recordmydesktop? | 00:57 |
| seeks | mzz: Welp, nothing yet, but I'm getting closer to it anyway. Thanks for the tip. | 00:57 |
| saif | <K99Brain>: i tried vlc and mplayer | 00:57 |
| miguel | i deleted my panel, how do i restore it please | 00:57 |
| mzz | marks256: your original question was "Is it possible to "pipe" program to other users", so I thought you meant the shell pipeline kind of "pipe", with one half running as a different user | 00:57 |
| mzz | seeks: failed how? | 00:57 |
| saif | <K99Brain>: only voice no picture | 00:57 |
| === miguel is now known as Guest95262 | ||
| transMIssion | miguel: every panel? | 00:57 |
| coleys | miguel: Right click, Add Panel? | 00:57 |
| Guest95262 | the top panel | 00:57 |
| _Apple_ | Ravious: when I open up the Nvidia settings the both show up but the one wont display regardless of what I do | 00:57 |
| Guest95262 | i restored a new one but i want the original one | 00:58 |
| _Apple_ | and I usually get an error after I try adjusting the settings | 00:58 |
| marks256 | mzz, i'm running xchat right now. my user name is dusty. Say if i there was another user on my terminal server, could i send my program to them, without logging out and logging back in. | 00:58 |
| transMIssion | Guest95262: you have to customize | 00:58 |
| Ravious | _Apple_ you on ubu 9.04? | 00:58 |
| K99Brain | saif, try to install that package with synaptic or with this terminal command: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 00:58 |
| mzz | marks256: I seriously doubt it | 00:58 |
| marks256 | mzz, so instead of the program showing up on MY x window session, it would show up on theirs | 00:58 |
| owen1_ | coleys: didn't work. i chose the drive from the bios, hit F10 (save and exit) and after 10 secs i had black screen with blinking cursor. here is my partition: /dev/sdf2 * 19197 19457 2096482+ b W95 FAT32 | 00:58 |
| _Apple_ | Ravious: 8.04 :/ | 00:58 |
| Guest95262 | ok well how do i get the setings back in there | 00:58 |
| seeks | mzz: It just freezes and I have to control+c in the terminal, mostly. I've tried a few different ips (198.162xxx, 127.0xxx, etc). | 00:58 |
| Guest95262 | oh nevermind i will just make a new account | 00:59 |
| marks256 | mzz, aww :( ok :) i was just curious | 00:59 |
| Guest95262 | it is fresh so i javew nothing to loose | 00:59 |
| K99Brain | saif, if it's a codec problem, this should solve | 00:59 |
| Guest95262 | thankyou | 00:59 |
| coleys | owen1_: You chose to boot from the drive? | 00:59 |
| mzz | marks256: you might be able to hack something up involving nx or the like, but moving windows across X servers is tricky, even if the two servers run as the same user. | 00:59 |
| transMIssion | Guest95262: k | 00:59 |
| Ali_nz | coleys: any ideas? | 00:59 |
| mzz | marks256: I can't think of a pretty way to do this offhand, but I'm tired, so I could easily be wrong. | 00:59 |
| sXeChris | why do i lag so much whenever i start GTK-recordmydesktop? | 00:59 |
| owen1_ | coleys: i moved the drive with + sign. | 00:59 |
| Dreki | coleys if i try to mount to a point that isnt there i get "mount: mount point /media/cdrom1 does not exist" is there a way i can make a new mount point so that i can have more than one iso mounted at a time and such? | 00:59 |
| coleys | Ali_nz: sudo apt-get install ntfs-config | 00:59 |
| jonex_ | how can i check what graphic card i have | 00:59 |
| owen1_ | coleys: (in the bios) | 00:59 |
| Ali_nz | coleys: i have done that | 00:59 |
| saif | <K99Brain>: thank u very very very much | 00:59 |
| Ali_nz | still get the error | 00:59 |
| mzz | seeks: err? It shouldn't freeze if the ip you're targetting is reachable | 00:59 |
| marks256 | mzz, ok. what should i be looking up? | 01:00 |
| saif | <K99Brain>: i `ll install it and tell u the result | 01:00 |
| coleys | Dreki: sudo mkdir /mnt/name/ | 01:00 |
| coleys | Ali_nz: Open it | 01:00 |
| K99Brain | saif, ok | 01:00 |
| transMIssion | i read the article how to change cpu freq but i cant set the cpu_min_freq... or if i do it doesnt change. What did i do wrong? | 01:00 |
| marks256 | mzz, i'd be more than happy to do some reading. i just need to be pointed in a direction ;) | 01:00 |
| owen1_ | coleys: i can try it on another machine. | 01:00 |
| coleys | owen1_: do that. | 01:00 |
| coleys | owen1_: it should work. | 01:00 |
| mzz | marks256: nah, too tired to give you anything particularly useful for that one, sorry. | 01:00 |
| Ali_nz | coleys: "Unable to mount location / cant mount file" | 01:00 |
| Ravious | _apple_ could you post your xorg.conf file to pastebin? I'll take a look at it | 01:00 |
| marks256 | mzz, understandable ;) thanks for the help anywya | 01:00 |
| Dreki | coleys: oh well that makes sense... sry im still figureing a lot of this out lol | 01:00 |
| seeks | mzz: Yeah, I figure there's some weird thing I'm going to have to deal with. This is going to take me a while, but oh well. | 01:01 |
| coleys | Dreki: No worries =P | 01:01 |
| jonex_ | how i know what graphic card i have | 01:01 |
| lyra | i burned the 8.04 to dvd but i FORGOT 8.04 has some crappy acpi settin that wont boot for me | 01:01 |
| coleys | Dreki: Everyone goes through this point at sometime +p | 01:01 |
| lyra | so i need to download 8.10 | 01:01 |
| mzz | seeks: if it really gets stuck that sounds like the other system has something enabled firewall-wise that's interfering | 01:01 |
| _Space_Case_ | i have an old 600 mhz computer / and /home on same drive.. swap is on a 4gb drive.. my question would i benefit or gain preformance by adding more partitions on sepert drives like /temp /var ... ect? | 01:01 |
| K99Brain | jonex_, lspci | grep -i vga | 01:01 |
| transMIssion | lyra: indeed | 01:01 |
| lyra | shouyld i just run it with nocpi | 01:01 |
| mzz | seeks: (but if I'm right you should get that in everything that speaks smb or cifs, not just mount) | 01:01 |
| meoblast001 | lstarnes: Hilikus: i booted into the 9.04 install, tried to do updates, and got "Could no grab your mouse." as the mouse started doing that thing | 01:01 |
| coleys | Ali_nz: Message me. | 01:01 |
| Ali_nz | coleys: does it matter that its a SATA drive hooked up via a USB-SATA bridge? | 01:01 |
| lyra | no=acpi | 01:01 |
| lyra | transMIssion, duh? | 01:02 |
| lyra | what the hell was i thinking | 01:02 |
| seeks | mzz: Could be. I can still connect with smbclient and all that. | 01:02 |
| mzz | seeks: what os does the target run? | 01:02 |
| seeks | mzz: Windows 7 | 01:02 |
| seeks | mzz: RC. | 01:02 |
| mzz | seeks: huh, then I'd expect cifs to work. Sorry, not sure what's going on there. | 01:02 |
| lyra | if i do disable acpi, what am i missing exactly | 01:02 |
| _Apple_ | Ravious: alright gimme a coupe | 01:02 |
| _Apple_ | thanks | 01:03 |
| seeks | mzz: No problem man, thanks for the help. One last question... are wildcards even possible with the "get" command? | 01:03 |
| jlaroche | can anyone help me reinstall my video drivers and compiz in Ubuntu (netbook remix 9.04)? I am running an eee pc model # 1000HE. | 01:03 |

| yezid | w do i delete an account with all the files | 01:03 |
| yezid | i deleted it but the files are still there | 01:04 |
| transMIssion | i read the article how to change cpu freq but i cant set the cpu_min_freq... or if i do it doesnt change. What did i do wrong? | 01:04 |
| sXeChris | why do i lag so much whenever i start GTK-recordmydesktop? | 01:04 |
| sXeChris | ANYONE!!!?? | 01:04 |
| th0r | yezid: userdel -r username | 01:04 |
| lstarnes | sXeChris: first of all, be patient. Second, it requires a lot of processing since it has to intercept and process video signals from X | 01:04 |
| gogeta | yezid: delete its home folder | 01:04 |
| th0r | yezid: that is 'sudo userdel -r username' | 01:04 |
| mzz | yezid: "userdel -r" sounds promising, but if the account is already gone I'd just wipe their homedir manually. | 01:04 |
| owen1_ | coleys: on the other machine i moved 'usb hard drive' in the bios to the top. F10, than i hit esc, to see the grub, but chose the first option. the machine booted as usual, ignoring my usb drive. am i suppose to choose it from grub? | 01:04 |

| spence | hey ubuntu, how can i get better media support for VLC? i'd like to be able to be able to play an entire album in VLC | 01:05 |
| coleys | owen1_: Yeah | 01:05 |
| sXeChris | istarnes, so what do i do? because it doesn't stop lagging and my hardware is more than applicable for it to work | 01:05 |
| spence | it seems to temperamental | 01:05 |
| transMIssion | spence: use the playlist. | 01:05 |
| mzz | sXeChris: recording (and encoding) video is a bit cpu-intensive. I'm not surprised things get a little laggy. | 01:05 |
| owen1_ | coleys: so it was in the grub, maybe at the middle/bottom of the list? | 01:05 |
| danbhfive | spence: I think there are a bunch of vlc plugins packages you can install | 01:05 |

| MindVirus | Those that are not dependencies. | 01:12 |
| marks256 | gogeta, njh_, yes it seems that doing the ps command does show information. i'll test it on my server in a minute | 01:12 |
| transMIssion | kevdog: hm yeah thats right ... | 01:13 |
| kevdog | or svn -- or whatever they use -- | 01:13 |

| Icehawk | sebsebseb: Can a desktop installation be run as a server? | 01:47 |
| Ramonster | Ubuser: No, I dont get error messages | 01:47 |
| sebsebseb | Icehawk: yes you can do servers in the desktop version as well | 01:47 |
| meoblast001 | :/ what's the quickest way to reinstall every gnome component? | 01:47 |
| meoblast001 | or, easiest | 01:48 |
| Keranu | When asked in the Ubuntu installation where you want Grub installed, my system will either end up not showing Grub when I boot up my computer or it does show Grub, but gives me Error 21 when trying to boot my WinXP partition | 01:48 |
| fwaokda_ | can someone please tell me how i can disable fglrx drivers? | 01:48 |
| te_ | Icehawk: Yes | 01:48 |
| Ramonster | meoblast001: rm * | 01:48 |
| OttifantSir | Ramonster: No Prob. I just wish I had thought of IRC the first day I switched from Windows to Linux. I'd be so much farter ahead than I am now... :-( | 01:48 |
| ubuser | And a dir of that folder from Linux box shows the file? | 01:48 |
| chris0 | does anyone else have problems with the firefox java plugin dying on load? I'm trying to talk to a computer over the GoToMyPC Universal (java) viewer, and it keeps dying. Weird part is, if I try playing a java game, such as radicalplay.com's Need for Madness, it works fine. Any ideas? | 01:48 |
| danbhfive | meoblast001: sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome* maybe | 01:48 |
| te_ | Icehawk: You only need to install the server applications as needed. | 01:48 |
| RHorse | whooa! | 01:49 |
| Ramonster | ubuser: yes | 01:49 |
| Icehawk | te: I'm mostly concerned about the server and server apps starting and running as soon as I turn the system on, without needing it to be logged in or anything | 01:49 |
| te_ | Icehawk: Only thing is, you will have a lot of un-needed software that only a desktop user would need, but you can pick and choose and uninstall. | 01:49 |
| gogeta | Icehawk: then remove them from rc.d | 01:49 |
| te_ | Icehawk: Each application you install will be turned on by default. | 01:49 |
| Ramonster | made 1 test folder with just right-clicking in the box and 1 with the terminal, they both show up under linux, but cant see them in windows | 01:49 |
| gogeta | Icehawk: or use the alt cd install base only apt-get what you whant | 01:49 |
| ubuser | Ramonster: Your destination folder for windows is a different folder than that for Linux | 01:50 |
| RHorse | Icehawk mk a dir off init.d/Removed to move the scripts you don't want to run. | 01:50 |
| Icehawk | Alright, sounds good. Thanks. | 01:50 |
| th0r | Icehawk: don't remove the scripts from rc.d, remove th elinks from rcx.d | 01:50 |
| te_ | Icehawk: That is the the way Debian / Ubuntu server applications are configured by default, to be turned on and running when installed. | 01:50 |
| ubuser | Ramonster: Your share name seen in windows is not the folder you just placed the files in via linux | 01:51 |
| chris0 | any ideas why the GotomyPC Universal viewer might be crashing under jaunty in firefox? Other java applets seem fine... | 01:51 |
| gogeta | th0r: some apps ask of you wanna have them start defult but yes most dont | 01:51 |
| Ramonster | ubuser: You're right. Forgot I also made a shared folder in /home/ with the same name :| | 01:51 |
| kevdog | 4 What the heck? | 01:52 |
| Ramonster | Then how DO I access the right folder under windows? | 01:52 |

| Pirate_Hunter | i think i cleaned all the xubuntu packages from 8.04 (not fun at all specially when doing it manually) now how do i go about getting the server, or should i ask if there is such a package option as ubuntu server? | 01:52 |
| gogeta | PiperMan: no only you | 01:52 |
| kevdog | yep | 01:52 |

| PiperMan | im just willing to talk nicely | 01:53 |
| PiperMan | hello pals | 01:53 |
| * RHorse sighs | 01:53 | |
| ubuser | Ramonster: You have to set up a share that points to the correct folder | 01:53 |
| rski | also a zombiejew would't know about linux or windows | 01:53 |
| Ramonster | Ubuser: Yes, but how? | 01:53 |
| gogeta | Pirate_Hunter: only diffeent with server and desktop is a gui | 01:53 |
| s_ | pues hoy es dia de diablos ... hoy es sabado :P | 01:53 |

| wfiuewfew | Hi! I need to connect and remotely view the desktop of my machine. I know vnc can do this. but the problem is that my machine is in a physically insecure location, and with vnc anyone would be able to plug in a display, since I need to be logged in while using vnc. Are there better options? | 01:55 |
| th0r | gogeta: right, but you shouldn't delete the script from /etc/rc.d, you should delete the link to that script in the appropriate run level /etc/rcx.d | 01:55 |
| bazhang | kevdog, take that elsewhere please | 01:55 |
| kevdog | 9_9 ok sorry | 01:55 |
| Keranu | When asked in the Ubuntu installation where you want Grub installed, my system will either end up not showing Grub when I boot up my computer or it does show Grub, but gives me Error 21 when trying to boot my WinXP partition | 01:55 |
| th0r | gogeta: oh...the scripts are in /etc/init.d | 01:55 |
| wiretapped | wfiuewfew: you can run Xvnc | 01:55 |
| Ramonster | wfiuewfew: Get NX | 01:55 |
| wiretapped | xserver only for vnc | 01:55 |
| Ramonster | wfiuewfew: NX is SSH with GUI | 01:56 |
| chris0 | wfiuewfew: google around for how to pipe VNC through SSH. That's about as secure as you're going to get | 01:56 |
| gogeta | wfiuewfew: windows remote login | 01:56 |
| kevdog | bazhang: Having a bad day :-? | 01:56 |
| gogeta | wfiuewfew: unlike vnc the display will still be at the login screen | 01:56 |
| Pirate_Hunter | gogeta: I doubt the only difference is gui i am guessing the packages included are also different | 01:56 |
| kevdog | I think freenx is faster than tunelling VNC through ssh | 01:57 |
| wfiuewfew | gogeta: can I use windows remote login w/ ubuntu | 01:57 |
| wiretapped | wfiuewfew: the desktop sharing in the GUI shares your real xserver... vncserver/Xvnc runs a different server that isn't connected to a video card | 01:57 |
| gogeta | wfiuewfew: lets find out | 01:57 |
| codethief_ | i'm having a problem with audio configuration: i have a usb headset + speakers (via onboard sound). i set the default sound input and output in the audio preferences. when i had just installed ubuntu everything worked fine (music in exaile, other audio/video players), but, suddenly, it all stopped. mumble is still doing its job (there're special hardware settings there like which hardware to use and stuff) but i cant get sound working in | 01:58 |

| Pirate_Hunter | what is the difference between desktop and server install, i dont believe that having no gui is the only difference, what about the packages which are intended for servers? | 01:59 |
| chris0 | *retracts questions about gotomypc, but wonders why it's so slow* | 01:59 |
| epicreviews | is there a screen capture VIDEO tool? | 02:00 |

| twig11 | What are the steps to take to see if a wireless network adapter is working correctly and configure it to connect to a wireless network? I just used ndisgtk to install the wireless drivers for a Linksys WUSB11v4 USB wireless network adapter, and I'm not sure where to go from here. | 02:00 |
| coleys | twig11: iwconfig (to see if its recognized) | 02:01 |
| te_ | twig11: iwconfig | 02:01 |
| SuspectZero | anyone here use Iodine the dns tunnel tool? | 02:02 |
| te_ | twig11: also: iwlist | 02:02 |
| Pirate_Hunter | coleys: is there a way for me to install that type of kernel manually? | 02:02 |
| chris0 | twig11: 1) sudo modprobe ndiswrapper, 2) iwconfig. If it's recognized in iwconfig, the easiest thing to do is gksudo gedit /etc/modules, and add 'ndiswrapper' to the end, and then reboot | 02:02 |
| coleys | Pirate_Hunter: Search synaptic? | 02:03 |
| cobra-the-joker | can i make a USB wireless indicator work in ubuntu 9 ?? | 02:03 |
| kevdog | lshw -C network will tell you if the driver is loaded | 02:03 |
| kevdog | also lsmod will list all loaded kernel modules -- which is what ndiswrapper is | 02:03 |
| Pirate_Hunter | coleys: i dont have synaptic cli only if you tell me the kernel type i can search for it or even better install it | 02:03 |

| SaKuRa | Good night for all! I have a problem. :s | 02:13 |

| codethief_ | exit | 02:13 |
| codethief_ | exit | 02:13 |
| chris0 | twig11: no, that should do it. HOWEVER, before you reboot, did you have any problems installing the INF file with ndiswrapper, or did that go ok? | 02:13 |
| SaKuRa | I edit the default file of apache, /apache2/sites-available/ | 02:14 |
| twig11 | kevdog: ndiswrapper 193436 0 | 02:14 |
| Andorin | I downloaded a theme.xml file for guifications for Pidgin. Does anyone know off the top of their head where I would place this file? | 02:14 |
| kevdog | sudo ndiswrapper -l I think shows the wrapped driver!! | 02:14 |
| IceWind | iG9, yes it should be sd something. check in desg for the proper name | 02:14 |
| IceWind | sorry dmesg | 02:14 |

| bazhang | AVW, to the hdd? | 02:18 |
| chris0 | twig11: how does the wireless look? | 02:18 |
| AVW | My situation is I've download 9.04 because I want the new filesystem (I've heard good things about it) and I only have my 8.10 CD | 02:18 |
| AVW | and yes bazhang | 02:18 |
| twig11 | chris0: kevdog: iwconfig shows wlan0 now | 02:19 |

| chris0 | twig11: what happens if you try to connect with the wireless util in the taskbar on the Desktop now? | 02:19 |
| bazhang | AVW, do you have some sort of download cap? | 02:19 |
| iG9 | IceWind I thought it was scd but trying to mount it gives "/dev/sdc is not a valid block device" no guess not | 02:19 |
| twig11 | chris0: I confess I removed that, thinking I could plop it back up there when I needed it. Do I have to reinstall something to get it back? | 02:20 |
| IceWind | iG9, try specifiyng a partition like sdc1 | 02:20 |
| AVW | bazhang, no | 02:20 |
| twig11 | chris0: I just removed it from the taskbar. | 02:20 |
| chris0 | twig11: you just removed it from the traay? ok all you should have to do is right click in the tray and go 'Add to Panel...' | 02:21 |
| soreau | AVW: So you don't have a cd to burn 9.04 onto? | 02:21 |
| IceWind | iG9, you may also do the followinf use fdisk to list any existing partition in it like: fdisk -l /dev/sdc | 02:21 |
| chris0 | twig11: there should be a wireless applet in there. You could do it without, in the command line, but it gets messy. I've found that the applet is the easiest. | 02:21 |
| AVW | soreau I only have one disc drive and that has the live cd in it | 02:21 |
| twig11 | chris0: I tried that but I don't see the wireless applet in that list. | 02:22 |
| gogeta | chris0: thers a few choices for a wireless aplett | 02:22 |
| kongming | Hey ubuntu, I am running ubuntu studio and I can't connect to the internet with my Belkin Wireless G Dongle. | 02:22 |
| chris0 | twig11: two seconds., lemme look at it | 02:22 |
| twig11 | chris0: can I install it fromthe liveCD? | 02:22 |
| gogeta | twig11: wicd | 02:22 |
| soreau | AVW: So you don't have an OS installed to the hard drive right now? | 02:22 |
| gogeta | twig11: install that | 02:22 |
| AVW | A broken Windows one. =/ | 02:23 |
| chris0 | twig11: gogeta, it's wicd? cool. I can never remember the name of it. | 02:23 |
| AVW | re-migrating back to Linux | 02:23 |
| chris0 | twig11: just do a sudo aptitude install wicd then. | 02:23 |
| twig11 | gogeta: from the liveCD? because unfortunately I have no wired network available. | 02:23 |
| gogeta | chris0: wicd is a wireless app that work on any x envirment | 02:23 |
| lordkelvin | no use apt-get insted of apatuide | 02:23 |
| lordkelvin | it wont freeze n lock | 02:23 |
| twig11 | I'm connecting wirelessly from another machine | 02:23 |
| soreau | AVW: Well, not sure if it's a good idea but you can try to start the iso burn process and switch the cd for a blank one | 02:24 |
| gogeta | twig11: ok then ubuntu has one | 02:24 |
| twig11 | gogeta: where can I find it? | 02:24 |
| gogeta | twig11: just right click on it it should show any wireless avable | 02:24 |
| soreau | AVW: Or, you could install 8.10 and then update, upgrade, dist-upgrade to 9.04 right away | 02:24 |
| chris0 | gogeta: neat...I've always used the gnome net applet, even in other environments, like blackbox...good to know that there are others out there.... | 02:24 |
| AVW | soreau: I know I can do the second one | 02:24 |
| gogeta | twig11: you should see it when you login ubuntu | 02:25 |
| AVW | I just wanted to see if there was an easy and fast way to do what I wanted | 02:25 |
| kevdog | sudo iwlist scan at the CLI will also show you wireless networks | 02:25 |
| kongming | Hey, how do I install drivers from the Ubuntu Live-CD to my Ubuntu Studio OS? | 02:25 |
| gogeta | twig11: sorry its left click itts on the top right corner | 02:25 |
| soreau | AVW: Not sure it will work, but you could try the first one | 02:25 |
| gogeta | twig11: looks like 2 monoters | 02:25 |
| bazhang | AVW, best bet is to get a minimalist version that lets you load everything in ram; you would be pushing it with Ubuntu livecd; how much ram do you have btw | 02:26 |
| twig11 | gogeta: I removed that one and its not in the list on Add to Panel. I have no idea why. | 02:26 |
| iG9 | IceWind, can I message you the dmesg output, I think it's having problems | 02:26 |
| IceWind | iG9, yeap | 02:26 |
| AVW | 2gb | 02:26 |
| chris0 | twig11: it doesn't show up on mine either...dunno why. Try saying gnome-netstatus-applet into a terminal. That should get it back for you | 02:27 |
| bazhang | AVW, as soreau says you can try it; if that does not work then a minimalist distro would be the choice | 02:27 |
| gogeta | twig11: then add it back its called network-manager-applet | 02:27 |
| IceWind | AVW, if you have a spare usb pen you can also use usb-creator and make a usb installer with the downloaded iso | 02:27 |

| mobi-sheep | racecar56: Err. Spams? What do you mean. | 03:06 |
| Okay | "Installing linux-backports-modules-jaunty along with wicd did the trick. No longer losing the signal and the strength is much greater." Wifi gurus, is this worth a try and are there risks? | 03:06 |

| fbc-mx | stroyan, There is a way to do it from the command line too, I just can't recall it. I know that when I tried to do a resize on an ntfs one time with gparted, it gave the command line to try to fix the problem. | 03:11 |

| mobi-sheep | racecar56: imagemagick got thousand of builtin commands and mogrify is one of them. "Use the mogrify program to resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more. This tool is similiar to [convert] except that the original image file is overwritten (unless you change the file suffix with the -format option) with any changes you request." | 03:14 |
| racecar56 | drakon: you have a cd drive like my dead laptop maybe | 03:14 |
| drakon | perhaps, it works with other distros | 03:14 |
| drakon | and previous versions of ubuntu | 03:15 |
| mobi-sheep | racecar56: mogrify -format png *.jpg | 03:15 |

| Okay | Arsin, yup, it's nautilus | 03:29 |
| stroyan | klown: You could add a DisplaySize line to /etc/X11/xorg.conf. With recent releases there may not be a handy line to add that to. Or you could try using "xrandr --fbmm WxH" and see if it will stick. | 03:29 |

| ubottu | Arsin: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 03:29 |

| mankash | how to open iso in ubuntu directly and play video out of it | 03:46 |
| zer0ne | Roikar: none is better. depends on your use... | 03:47 |
| ctmjr | Roiker use the newer one | 03:47 |
| sagemode | mankash: u can open iso by rightclick and archive manager | 03:47 |
| gogeta | mankash: sudo mount iso.iso /media/cdrom | 03:47 |
| kurou | mankash: Try opening it with Brasero. | 03:47 |
| Roikar | whats the difference? of both of them, stability? performance? | 03:47 |
| zer0ne | the newer nvidia did,nt work for me. I had to use an older one. depends.... | 03:47 |

| Okay | oh dang. I got 255% wifi connectivity. | 03:49 |
| jimdb | sagemode: there are no shares listed in that file. there's a folder somewhere in the file system that points to files that correspond to each folder. do you happen to remember where they are? | 03:49 |
| TuxedoBond | I'm looking for the Gdebi package I installed. What is the Ubuntu equivavlent of a .exe? | 03:49 |
| zer0ne | jimdb: /share does not mean you share that folder | 03:49 |
| fretegi | okay howd u do that? | 03:49 |
| ctmjr | Roiker you might get better answers in #nvidia if anyones is awake like zer0ne said it's what works for you | 03:49 |
| jimdb | zerOne: i have many shares already working. i'm just trying to create a global create mask | 03:50 |
| Okay | I opened wicd and that's what it told me fretegi | 03:50 |
| gogeta | Okay: its jusy becouse you havent rebooted yet | 03:50 |
| fretegi | my wireless card doesnt have the same range in ubuntu as it does with vista, pretty sure its a driver issue but not sure what to do with it | 03:50 |
| ricardo_ | hi | 03:50 |
| Travis_ | I've been searching for hours now, so I turn to you IRC. Could someone please tell me how one would simply echo a 57,600 baud 8 databit 1 stop bit no parity serial input on ttyS1? | 03:51 |
| sagemode | jimdb: you have to manually put it on the conf file | 03:51 |
| gogeta | fretegi: there just estmates | 03:51 |
| Okay | fretegi, yeah, we're in the same boat. do you have an atheros card? | 03:51 |
| cklords | anyone have exp getting amarock to load samba network drives? | 03:51 |
| fretegi | hang on lemme check, pretty sure its a realtek | 03:51 |
| ricardo_ | i have a weird problem | 03:51 |
| fretegi | rtl8101E realtek | 03:51 |
| sagemode | ricardo_: ?proble | 03:51 |
| fretegi | tahts what i got | 03:52 |
| jimdb | sagemode: actually there are a number of files in a folder somewhere in the file system which correspond to each share I have set up. I just can't remember where that is. each file is laid out like a share entry in the smb.conf file. but I am trying to ensure that I can have anyone in any group create a file or folder that anyone else in any group can alter, delete, etc. | 03:52 |
| Okay | under wpa supplicant driver in wicd, what are all those options such as wext, hostapp, madwifi, atmel, ndiswrapper, ipw, ralink legacy? | 03:52 |
| ricardo_ | i've installed ubuntu so many times, but yesterday i've installed in a toshiba satellite notebook, and then when the user selected windows in grub menu, the system freezes in a black screen with "starting up..." message and sounds a beep | 03:52 |
| gogeta | Okay: diffrent wap drivers it uses wext by defult | 03:53 |
| ricardo_ | i really dont know what could be failing | 03:53 |
| Okay | gogeta, is that the best choice? | 03:53 |
| icedtea | Travis: have you looked at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Serial-HOWTO.html | 03:53 |
| gogeta | Okay: if it works lol | 03:53 |
| zer0ne | !best | 03:53 |
| ubottu | 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. | 03:53 |
| Okay | fretegi, I have an atheros 5007eg card | 03:53 |
| fretegi | what if it works with limited range | 03:53 |
| fretegi | ? | 03:53 |
| Okay | gogeta, lmao | 03:53 |
| fretegi | performance is great on mine, just gets half the range of my vista setup | 03:54 |
| gogeta | fretegi: those are estmates | 03:54 |
| gogeta | fretegi: or its not using n | 03:54 |
| rocky | youseenothing, are you online yet? | 03:54 |
| rocky | guess not | 03:54 |
| fretegi | its a G card, but what i mean is i can log in from across the street from my house with vista, however in linux i must be much closer to acquire the network | 03:54 |
| Okay | fretegi, I used sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-jaunty | 03:55 |
| Okay | I have no idea what that does, but people say it works | 03:55 |

| Okay | RudyValencia, choppy as in youtube videos? | 03:59 |
| RudyValencia | I don't know. I don't have Flash installed so can't test | 03:59 |
| ricardo_ | mehdi, all people loves all people in the world, the thing is that our governors wants to hate us , so they can "take care" of us, (im nor american neither iranian) | 03:59 |
| wiseman | SeaPhor: I installed ubuntu a little over a year ago. I have an ATI Radeon HD2400 mobile | 04:00 |
| osiris | is there anywhere to adjust the scroll speed, or number of lines you scroll with the mouse wheel ? | 04:00 |
| rocky | m0r0n, last time I ordered it, I forgot that I had ordered it before it came | 04:00 |
| rocky | XD | 04:00 |
| SeaPhor | wiseman, what vid card u have and how long ago u install ubuntu? and fwaokda | 04:00 |
| RudyValencia | things like Pidgin have noticeable 'pops' in the sound that they shouldn't | 04:00 |
| fretegi | wiseman, have u tried running the proprietary driver ? | 04:00 |
| m0r0n | So far it's been about 5 weeks or more I think more | 04:00 |
| fwaokda | SeaPhor, ati radeon 4850 and just installed | 04:00 |
| wiseman | SeaPhor: I tried both. Actually, trying to install the proprietary driver is what messed everything up. | 04:00 |
| rocky | m0r0n, well, idk | 04:00 |
| rocky | it might take awhile | 04:00 |
| wiseman | And I can't seem to put it back. | 04:00 |
| rocky | :/ | 04:00 |
| Okay | brb later | 04:01 |
| RudyValencia | I've tried removing pulseaudio to see if it's causing the problem, happens both ways. | 04:01 |
| rocky | m0r0n, do you REALLY need it? | 04:01 |
| SeaPhor | fwaokda, have you activated the restricted drivers? | 04:01 |
| gogeta | fretegi: sudo gedit /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/wireless-ipw-power.conf | 04:01 |
| rocky | :D | 04:01 |
| wiseman | I tried resetting xorg in the recovery mode on startup, no luck | 04:01 |
| gogeta | you can boost the card setting there | 04:01 |
| zer0ne | fretegi: focus! Do you wan't to change your iwconfig or not??? terminal : man iwconfig .... | 04:01 |
| fwaokda | SeaPhor, it was working until i tried the restricted drivers... then i disabled them when they ran slow... after disabling them now I have horrible resolution choices | 04:01 |
| wiseman | I've been dicking with this on and off for a couple months | 04:01 |
| AThorn1 | Can someone help me change kernels, when the kernel is a deb, through command line? The Kernal I need to use is here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1138363&highlight=update+manager+studio+freeze&page=3 | 04:01 |
| m0r0n | No but I've been running to the mailbox after the first 4 weeks expecting it lol | 04:01 |
| rocky | lmao | 04:01 |
| rocky | don't get too excited now | 04:01 |
| fwaokda | SeaPhor, btw I have dual displays don't know if that matters | 04:01 |
| fretegi | lol yea, just trying to help contribute :) finally getting to wear i know a bit around linux wanna help as u all have helped me | 04:02 |
| ZidaneRick | hey guys, ok im running UNR and everytime i boot the system i get a prompt to enter password for "default keyring to unlock" | 04:02 |
| SeaPhor | fwaokda, ATI is way behind when it comes to dual displays in linux | 04:02 |
| fretegi | are there any downsides to boosting power to wireless? | 04:02 |
| ZidaneRick | is there anyway to stop it? | 04:02 |
| gogeta | fretegi: less battery life | 04:02 |
| fretegi | no biggie, anyway to turn off the wireless card completely, the external power switch doesnt seem to work with linux | 04:03 |
| fwaokda | SeaPhor, well what can i do? | 04:03 |
| brian1 | i just installed "super ubuntu" aka super os and i gotta say its pretty good,, all it is , is just a suped up ubuntu 9.04 but its solid | 04:03 |
| SeaPhor | fwaokda, if you just installed and all was ok, i'd go back to that by re-installing, and not enabling the restricted | 04:04 |
| fwaokda | SeaPhor, if I can only use the generic ones that worked after install I'll use them... would like to use compiz but if i can't at least would like to get back to the regular ones | 04:04 |
| gogeta | fretegi: hardware switches always work | 04:04 |
| wiseman | so fretegiq, SeaPhor, I've also tried using envy to install the newest drivers, and that moved me ahead a bit, but now I can't get my resolution all the way back up to 1280x800 | 04:04 |
| RudyValencia | I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 on a Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop. Why are sounds choppy on all sound devices (occurs on both the built-in Intel 82801CA-ICH3/Cirrus Logic CS4205 and a separate C-Media USB headset)? | 04:04 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: How is CPU usage? | 04:04 |
| fretegi | just turned the hardware switch off | 04:04 |
| ZidaneRick | hey guys, ok im running UNR and everytime i boot the system i get a prompt to enter password for "default keyring to unlock" | 04:04 |
| fwaokda | SeaPhor, there isn't a way to just re-enable the drivers I was using before activating the restricted ones? | 04:04 |
| fretegi | on this lappy, still working lol | 04:04 |
| fretegi | i dont get it | 04:04 |
| RudyValencia | tommost: CPU usage while playing sounds | 04:05 |
| RudyValencia | ? | 04:05 |
| brian1 | choppy how so?? | 04:05 |
| SeaPhor | fwaokda, uncheck it the same way you checked it | 04:05 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: Yeah. | 04:05 |
| fwaokda | i did but that didn't work :( | 04:05 |
| RudyValencia | tommost: I'm new to Linux, how do I check that? | 04:05 |
| gogeta | fretegi: odd | 04:05 |
| brian1 | when you say choppy like , idstortion, laggin | 04:05 |
| fretegi | thats what i said... i dont get it, will boosting power increse connectivity and speed as well? | 04:06 |
| tommost | Uh, System -> Administration -> System Monitor is the menu, I think. | 04:06 |
| RudyValencia | brian1: choppy like parts of the sound are missing, or pops occur | 04:06 |
| wiseman | accursed ubuntu gods! | 04:06 |
| mobi-sheep | !sounds | RudyValencia | 04:06 |
| ubottu | RudyValencia: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 04:06 |
| SeaPhor | wiseman, ATI+compiz = nogo, i mean it somewhat works but is officially not supported by ATI as of yet | 04:06 |
| brian1 | hmm i wonder if there is a wire grounding out inside | 04:06 |
| wiseman | SeaPhor: That's the thing, It USED to all work perfectly | 04:07 |
| RudyValencia | brian1: the problem didn't occur in WinXP before | 04:07 |
| wiseman | compiz, resolution, etc | 04:07 |
| wiseman | perfectly | 04:07 |
| edbian | wiseman: What card do you have? | 04:07 |
| SeaPhor | in 8.04 wiseman ? | 04:07 |
| brian1 | im a noob too so dont listen to me, i just wanted to sound smart. lol | 04:07 |
| unknown_vv | ao | 04:07 |
| wiseman | yes SeaPhor, 8.04 | 04:07 |
| gogeta | fretegi: to boost the card use iwconfig txpower 30 | 04:07 |
| gogeta | sudo iwconfig | 04:07 |
| SeaPhor | wiseman, then go back to 8.04... | 04:07 |
| wiseman | edbian: I have an ati radeon HD 2400 mobile | 04:07 |
| wiseman | SeaPhor: I do h ave 8.04.... | 04:08 |
| edbian | wiseman: With what driver? | 04:08 |
| gogeta | fretegi: sudo iwconfig ath0 txpower 30 | 04:08 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: My thoughts are that it is an issue with PulseAudio, which can have issues when there is high CPU usage in my experience. | 04:08 |
| SeaPhor | wiseman, i am still on 8.04 on 3 of my 8 boxes | 04:08 |
| wiseman | edbian: I've tried the proprietary driver fglrx and the open source driver | 04:08 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: If it works in XP we know it's not a hardware problem. | 04:08 |
| pengo-ubu | hey guys how do i find what driver and the version jaunty is using? | 04:08 |
| gogeta | 30mw | 04:08 |
| pengo-ubu | for wireless | 04:08 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: And since it happens with two devices it's probably not a driver issue. | 04:08 |
| edbian | wiseman: And neither one allows hardware acceleration? | 04:08 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: How old is this laptop? | 04:09 |
| edbian | wiseman: Do you know about the compiz check script?? http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check | 04:09 |
| wiseman | edbian: I seemed to get the proprietary driver to kind of sort of work, but I cannot get my resolution back to 1280x800 | 04:09 |
| RudyValencia | tommost: I got it second-hand so I can't say how old it is | 04:09 |
| tommost | Well, what CPU does it have? | 04:09 |
| RudyValencia | 1.8GHz P4-M | 04:09 |
| wiseman | edbian: It seems to be working, but i can't get my resolution up so everthing is big. | 04:10 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: Could you open the think I suggested before? | 04:10 |
| mobi-sheep | !ati | wiseman | 04:10 |
| ubottu | wiseman: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 04:10 |
| edbian | wiseman: Hang on. I'm reading the xrandr man page. It is a utility that can set the screen size via command line. I'm assuming the GUI Screen Resolution app isn't working. | 04:11 |
| brian1 | what would be the best/easy way to upgrade to firefox 3.5 | 04:11 |
| gogeta | fretegi: you should check out man iwconfig thers alot of options tp crank up your card | 04:11 |
| gogeta | to | 04:11 |
| tommost | brian1: I found using swiftfox pretty easy. | 04:11 |
| RudyValencia | tommost: the CPU usage is between 27 and 60% at idle | 04:11 |
| wiseman | mobi-sheep: looking. | 04:11 |
| SeaPhor | wiseman, whatever you do,, Envy is only the very LAST resort | 04:11 |
| fretegi | do these effect speed as well? | 04:11 |

| edbian | wiseman: type (and give me a brief synopsis of) this command: xrandr -q | 04:12 |
| ricardo_ | when i select windows in grub, i get a black screen with "starting up..." and then i get a beep | 04:12 |
| ricardo_ | and nothing more else | 04:12 |

| gogeta | fretegi: i do a arch is a very basic install and you build from there | 04:13 |
| mobi-sheep | tommost: Faster? | 04:13 |

| tommost | mobi-sheep: It's not really for me, but I'm on a 64-bit machine. | 04:13 |
| tommost | I imagine there could be a significant difference for a 32-bit machine. | 04:13 |
| brian1 | im a little confused as to exacly what it is | 04:13 |
| fretegi | right thats what i hear, just curiuos, looking for a faster oad for work, playing with linux as a potentional replacement for work machine, but i have 1 app that is windows based i must run | 04:13 |
| mobi-sheep | tommost: Only asking just because it have 'swift' in it does't necessarily mean it's faster, | 04:13 |
| wiseman | edbian: It shows a variety of resolutions from 320x200 to 1024x768, with a star by the 1024x768 | 04:13 |
| TuxedoBond | Will using Xfce with Gnome installed keep the Gnome files running in memory? | 04:14 |
| gogeta | fretegi: google that app and wine see if it runs in linux | 04:14 |
| fretegi | im gotta run for a bit, cable guy here, gotta disconnect some coax stuff | 04:14 |
| brian1 | i got it | 04:14 |
| edbian | wiseman: This is my basic understanding thus for. Some software in the system (probably X11) looks at your monitor's available resolutions and your video cards resolutions and give you a list of what the two have in common (acceptable configurations) which is what shows up in the GUI screen resolution app. | 04:14 |
| fretegi | oh i got it running just fine in wine, just a bit slow, trying to speed it up | 04:14 |

| edbian | wiseman: xrandr -q lists what the video card is capable of. Is the output accurate information for your video card? | 04:15 |
| wiseman | edbian: well I know for a fact my monitor was running at 1280x800 earlier. | 04:15 |
| gogeta | fretegi: wines not perfect lol | 04:15 |
| RudyValencia | well, what's happening? | 04:15 |

| fretegi | it runs damn well now, after some tinkering, just learned today that compiz screws with it, gonna make another user with no compiz settings and try next week, see if faster | 04:16 |
| edbian | wiseman: So 1024 x 768 is not the highest resolution your card can output but it is the highest listed by xrandr? Is this correct? | 04:16 |
| wiseman | edbian: 100% correct. | 04:16 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: Hmm... well, so it could be PulseAudio, or it could be something wrong at the ALSA level (PulseAudio is a "sound server" that all of your apps talk to to which in turn talks to ALSA, which is a lower-level interface). | 04:16 |
| edbian | wiseman: Are you on the fglrx driver right now? | 04:16 |
| gogeta | fretegi: or just turn it off in prefs aperance | 04:16 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: We can try killing PulseAudio and seeing if ALSA works alone. | 04:16 |
| wiseman | edbian: I'm not sure....I think so | 04:16 |
| RudyValencia | tommost, I removed PulseAudio and it still has the same issue | 04:16 |
| wiseman | how do I see for sure? | 04:16 |
| fretegi | u mean "sero effects" | 04:16 |
| fretegi | zero* | 04:16 |
| edbian | wiseman: lsmod, will list all of the modules currently loaded (being used) | 04:17 |
| gogeta | fretegi: yya none | 04:17 |
| brian1 | tommost i dont think i can use it cause im on a aspire one atom, no installer for it, i think | 04:17 |
| edbian | wiseman: lsmod | grep fglrx will show if the fglrx module is loaded. | 04:17 |
| gogeta | fretegi: thats conmpiz off | 04:17 |
| tommost | RudyValencia: I don't know then. I've dealt with PA issues, but I really don't know how to debug ALSA. | 04:17 |
| mobi-sheep | RudyValencia: Try "sudo alsactl init" | 04:17 |
| edbian | wiseman: If you don't want to search through the whole list | 04:17 |
| fretegi | funny thing is nothing is checked and i got all kinds of compiz stuff running ATM | 04:17 |
| edbian | wiseman: the open source driver is called "radeon" so lsmod | grep radeon to check if that one is loaded. | 04:17 |

| edbian | wiseman: Do you understand? | 04:19 |

| RudyValencia | with add-in BCM4306 WiFi card | 04:24 |
| wiseman | so it seems, edbian | 04:24 |
| edbian | wiseman: because lsmod reported somewhere in its output "fglrx" that means that fglrx is loaded. lsmod only return a list of modules that are loaded. | 04:24 |

| zer0ne | coffeeman: did you try cheese first? | 04:27 |
| ron_ | ghbdt | 04:27 |
| edbian | wiseman: ok. We have two options. Option 1: load the open-source driver and see if the higher resolutions are listed. Option 2: just run the xrandr command to set the resolution to the one you want and see what happens. | 04:27 |

| mobi-sheep | RudyValencia: Making noises or... ? | 04:27 |
| ron_ | yes | 04:27 |

| soreau | wiseman: Using envy is not recommended and using the proprietary driver is definitely not recommended if your card is supported by the open radeon driver. Unfortunately, envy can make your system so messed up that it is beyond repair | 04:27 |

| RudyValencia | mobi-sheep: lemme paste its output, brb | 04:30 |
| edbian | wiseman: sure. the xrandr man page says that the flag for setting the resolution is: --fb widthxheight so xrandr --fb widthxheight :) | 04:30 |
| ctmjr | soreau, is 100% correct | 04:30 |
| wiseman | SeaPhor: tried that, didn't work | 04:30 |
| RudyValencia | mobi-sheep: http://pastebin.com/d3f88bf6c | 04:30 |
| edbian | soreau: I would use modprobe and worry about removing modules once we know which one we want :) | 04:30 |
| soreau | edbian: It doesn't work like that | 04:31 |
| edbian | soreau: modprobe lets you choose a module to use manually without removing the other options or rebooting doesn't it? | 04:31 |

| wiseman | hang on a minute, brb | 04:32 |
| coffeeman | zerOne: cheese doesn't detect a camera and then crashes... | 04:32 |
| soreau | edbian: Yes, but fglrx uses an entirely different libGL.so and the open drivers will not work at all with fglrx still installed on the system. | 04:32 |
| SeaPhor | edbian, he said he tried and didnt work, but wiseman has envy installed, prolly blocking all u do | 04:32 |

| edbian | wiseman: I suggest it. SeaPhor What do you think? | 04:34 |
| edbian | wiseman: That is, I suggest uninstalling it. | 04:34 |
| soreau | edbian: envy is a script which attempts to install drivers without regard to the package manager and can really screw things up | 04:34 |

| edbian | wiseman: purge it. Do you know how to do that? | 04:35 |
| SeaPhor | wiseman, edbian if you do then do sudo apt-get remove --purge envy* | 04:35 |
| wiseman | edbian: you mean complete removal in synaptic, or is there something MAS FUERTE? | 04:35 |
| soreau | envy is like a graphics driver virus for linux | 04:35 |
| edbian | soreau: What happens on your system if you modprobe the other ati driver? Does it fail? Does lsmod report the change correctly?? | 04:35 |
| soreau | nightmare even | 04:36 |
| gogeta | edbian: i always use deborphin hehe | 04:36 |
| edbian | wiseman: I think that complete removal is the same as purging. | 04:36 |
| * SeaPhor agrees with soreau | 04:36 | |
| edbian | gogeta: What does deborphin do? purge packages? | 04:36 |
| wiseman | edbian: ARMING MISSILE | 04:36 |
| soreau | edbian: Sure, you can load and unload modules all day long. That doesn't mean they'll work when other installed components are conflicting | 04:36 |

| gogeta | edbian: finds orphined libs purges old configs removes old packages that got installed allongside a install | 04:37 |

| edbian | soreau: So loading a module doesn't mean that it's being used by the system? (You're turning my world upside-down here) | 04:38 |
| wiseman | looks like it finished | 04:38 |
| soreau | wiseman: The only thing you can do is use envy to uninstall the proprietary driver and hope it does actually undo what it did. Removing envy itself means you'll be left with whatever you currently have | 04:38 |

| carlitos__ | hi all guys | 04:43 |
| SeaPhor | edbian, thats the one we need to purge | 04:44 |
| carlitos__ | in virtualbox is possible to reconigze a tv card tunner ? | 04:44 |
| edbian | SeaPhor: Yeah. I was just mentioning. | 04:44 |
| fertech | what do i need to setup a mail server | 04:44 |
| RudyValencia | mobi-sheep: it not only doesn't fix the problem, it also says: "Unknown hardware: "ICH" "Cirrus Logic CS4205 rev 3" "AC97a:4352595b" "" "" Hardware is initialized using a guess method Unknown hardware: "USB-Audio" "USB Mixer" "USB0d8c:000c" "" "" Hardware is initialized using a guess method" | 04:44 |
| jwjza | a post for the mailbox | 04:44 |
| edbian | wiseman: Was that fglrx-envy package the only thing that locate envy returned? | 04:44 |
| SeaPhor | lots of stamps | 04:44 |
| wiseman | searching for envy in synaptic, gonna purge like bullemic gymnast | 04:44 |
| ctmjr | watson516, so you do have an nvidia not intel | 04:44 |
| wiseman | edbian: that and several variations thereof | 04:45 |
| watson516 | apparently so yes | 04:45 |
| fertech | any one | 04:45 |
| _Space_Case_ | how do i share an Internet connection ? | 04:45 |
| edbian | wiseman: As if it wasn't already obvious... We need to purge all traces of this envy package from the system. | 04:45 |
| _Space_Case_ | i have frestarter | 04:45 |
| soreau | edbian: Also, locate is dependent upon the database being currently updated with 'update-db' otherwise, it will return old files no longer on the system | 04:45 |
| fertech | anyone knows how to setup mail server | 04:45 |
| _Space_Case_ | dont i need to sudo apt-get install dhcp something? | 04:45 |
| edbian | _Space_Case_: You need to configure iptables :) You need to turn on "packet masqurading" or NAT (network address translation) two different words for the same thing. | 04:46 |
| wiseman | edbian: so I already did a purge, and synaptic shows nothing | 04:46 |

| jwjza | fertech: an smtp server, a pop/imap server, something to run all this on, or alternatively a post office and a lot of paper/stamps... but i think this is not ubuntu-specific | 04:46 |
| gogeta | linux_ubuntu: should be mpeg rdy | 04:46 |
| ctmjr | watson516, when you ran the ubuntu restricted driver app you got no errors? | 04:46 |
| soreau | edbian: Instead, use 'dpkg -l|grep fglrx' to return possibly installed packages for instance (the ones with 'ii' next to the entry is an installed package) | 04:46 |
| _Space_Case_ | i have a router and its hard wired, my internet is ppp0 cdma card... | 04:47 |

| wiseman | well, the driver is right, but maybe I have the wrong monotir. | 05:05 |

| SuperMiguel | how do i use to set software raid? | 05:14 |
| WindowsUser | SuperMiguel: use mdadm thats detailed like a bit below it | 05:14 |
| soreau | coffeeman: What do you mean 'booting'? What does the graphics card have to do with it? | 05:14 |
| agentturt | SuperMiguel, when i was setting up RAID, i found a really good howto from a .fi web site, IIRC | 05:14 |
| WindowsUser | SuperMiguel: thier example for mdadm looks acceptable: mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=linear --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdb6 /dev/sdc5 | 05:15 |
| SuperMiguel | agentturt, link? | 05:15 |
| CatEater | soreau: it only offers 800x600 and 1024x768 and some others, not 1024x600 | 05:15 |

| agentturt | SuperMiguel, i'm looking... one sec | 05:15 |
| mividaendigital | soreau: check and says a already have that resolution. i think is the driver | 05:15 |
| coffeeman | soreau: not sure. it hangs during boot, but only when the nvidia card is used. boots wonderfully - using it now - with the factory card. doesn't seem to matter whether or not the drivers are activated... | 05:15 |
| SuperMiguel | WindowsUser, so mkraid doesnt work any more just sue mdadm? | 05:15 |
| soreau | CatEater: 1024x600 is a nonstandard resolution. Why would it offer that? I guess you could try xrandr to manually force it in that mode.. | 05:16 |

| edbian | CatEater: using xrandr ?? | 05:21 |

| soreau | AD__: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=762619 | 05:22 |
| WindowsUser | SuperMiguel: the installer mucks with fdisk, runs mdadm and formats the resultant /dev/mdX device when you click go | 05:22 |
| CatEater | edbian: sure, why not? someone else said xrandr, i didn't | 05:22 |
| kacenda | pouchedfox - cheese says 'no camera found!' and the 'camera' dropdown box in preferences is just greyed out | 05:22 |
| Scunizi | kacenda: have you tried "cheese" to see if it works? | 05:22 |
| edbian | CatEater: xrandr is used to configure your video settings :) Resolution size etc etc. | 05:23 |
| CatEater | yeah i know, that's why i'm confused | 05:23 |
| Scunizi | kacenda: I was a little slow on the typing.. | 05:23 |
| pouchedfox | gstreamer-properties ? | 05:23 |
| coffeeman | soreau: any ideas? | 05:23 |
| CatEater | i don't know why anyone would even suggest it | 05:23 |
| CatEater | i installed vbox-additions, so that thing should adjust my resolution, right? | 05:23 |
| jon5000 | soreau, thanks. i will look into that | 05:23 |
| edbian | CatEater: More specifically what is your problem then? (Forget about xrandr) | 05:23 |
| soreau | coffeeman: I didn't see your response to my last question | 05:23 |
| CatEater | my problem is that ubuntu only runs at 800x600 and i want it at 1024x600 | 05:24 |
| pouchedfox | (you can use "gstreamer-properties" to select the video input source) | 05:24 |
| michael__ | my removable devices like usb is not appearing on my Windows OS virtual box | 05:24 |
| michael__ | wat wil i do | 05:24 |
| edbian | CatEater: Than we do need xrandr!! funny funny. | 05:24 |
| CatEater | edbian:cool, what do i type? | 05:24 |
| edbian | CatEater: in ubuntu run "xrandr -q" to see what the virtual card supports. | 05:24 |
| kacenda | pouchedfox - thanks i ran that command, when clicking 'test' under 'default input' in the 'video' tab i get 'video for linux 2: cannot identify device /dev/video0' | 05:24 |
| Scunizi | CatEater: I came in late.. you have vbox installed and you can't get more than 800x600? right.. is it a windows guest? | 05:24 |
| Scunizi | CatEater: or ubuntu guest? | 05:25 |
| CatEater | "xrandr -q" doesn't list 1024x600, just 5 others | 05:25 |
| pouchedfox | kacenda: none of the other choices in the pulldown sources menu works? | 05:25 |
| CatEater | win host, ubuntu guest | 05:25 |
| coffeeman | soreau: sorry, i missed your last ? kernel seems to run fine, but hangs with tty processes terminating | 05:25 |
| CatEater | if i could do ubuntu native, i would | 05:25 |
| edbian | CatEater: What is the max listed? | 05:25 |
| edbian | CatEater: What is preventing you from doing that? | 05:26 |
| Scunizi | CatEater: can you drag the edges of the window for the guest and have it resize automatically? | 05:26 |
| soreau | coffeeman: at what point is that? when booting? | 05:26 |
| kacenda | pouchedfox - nope, all the same thing & the 'device' menu is grayed out... seems like it's just not being detected, maybe there's a module i'm not loading that i need to be? | 05:26 |
| CatEater | edbian: max listed is 1360x768 | 05:26 |
| pouchedfox | kacenda: if that doesnt see it, then you might need to check to see if theres drivers for the webcam | 05:26 |
| CatEater | Scunizi: no, it stays at 800x600 in the guest's view | 05:26 |
| edbian | CatEater: That is an odd size huh. Do you want to switch your resolution or do you want me to help you install ubuntu to the HDD natively? | 05:26 |
| nogagplz | CatEater, installed the guest additions? | 05:26 |
| CatEater | soreau: after logged in, i can't select 1024x600, only others | 05:27 |
| CatEater | nogagplz: yes | 05:27 |
| SpenceKid | hey guys, i'm trying to install Windows 7, with the install disk i have, but i'm not sure how to do it with linux. can anyone help? | 05:27 |
| kacenda | pouchedfox - yeah that makes sense, i wonder do you have any tips on getting the name of the device so i can look up drivers/modules? it's a built-in thing in this laptop so i don't know what hte hardware is called | 05:27 |
| Scunizi | CatEater: do a Ctrl+G while focus is on the guest and then try again | 05:27 |
| CatEater | edbian: i want to run ubuntu in a vm, at 1024x600 | 05:27 |
| soreau | CatEater: That is quite the strange resolution TBH | 05:27 |
| CatEater | ^G and try what again? | 05:27 |
| pouchedfox | lspci | 05:27 |
| dsdeiz | hello, is there like a list of lightweight linux packages? | 05:27 |
| coffeeman | soreau: yeah, during boot. | 05:27 |
| edbian | CatEater: Is that resolution listed in xrandr -q ?? | 05:28 |
| CatEater | soreau: "Acer Aspire One" | 05:28 |

| qwyeth | the physical size is always inaccurate to what the system has to some extent | 05:35 |
| Out_Cold | SpenceKid, you don't use linux to install windows | 05:35 |
| ubuntufreak | qwyeth: so you mean that only it displays it as 2.9GB | 05:35 |
| SpenceKid | then how can i install windows? i do not have it anymore, but i do have a restore disk | 05:36 |
| soreau | andres_: Done, You do understand that only ATI and nVidia cards offer proprietary drivers that you have to install? ATI and Intel has open sourced drivers that are already working by default (so you don't have to install anything) | 05:36 |
| Scunizi | SpenceKid: you mean with Virtualbox? so you can run windows inside of Linux? | 05:36 |
| soreau | andres_: In short, your drivers are already installed and working | 05:36 |
| qwyeth | different systems will report different sizes... that intel whitepaper explains many things your hardware appropriates memory for that your system won't have access to | 05:36 |

| soreau | SpenceKid: So install win7, then install ubuntu. What's the big deal? | 05:37 |
| andres_ | ok, thank you soreau for your help! take care... o/ | 05:37 |
| Scunizi | SpenceKid: you can't install from a restore disk unless you want to wipe out your entire ubuntu install... A restore disk isn't like a normal install cd.. it will partition and reformat the entire drive. then install just like it came from the factory. | 05:37 |
| jon5000 | soreau, that did it! thanks | 05:38 |

| wizzo50 | How do you hook a HD with a parrell port to a SATA port | 05:55 |
| Phrogz | qwyeth - any thoughts on why lshw says "capacity: 2400MHz" when the hardware is socket 478 which theoretically goes up to 3GHz (and a bit more)? | 05:56 |
| Phrogz | Hardware: http://www.aberdeeninc.com/ABCATG/mb6869.htm | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | wizzo50: you mean an 'ide' port? there exists ide to sata adaptors.. | 05:56 |
| howie | is there a way to get pidgin to auto identify ur nick? in irc | 05:57 |
| wizzo50 | Is there. I just updated my Motherboard and was wondering if I can get a cable for it to hook the old HD up to it with all my info on it | 05:57 |
| dsdeiz | how is ncmp+mpd compared to moc? | 05:57 |
| Out_Cold | hey Dr_Willis you think i could install from a live cd without booting the live cd? | 05:57 |
| qwyeth | Huh... No, I don't, but it's interesting. I'll look into it. | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Out_Cold: if you knew what you were doing yes.. since you have to ask if its doable.. :) i doubt it. | 05:58 |
| CSS_Guru | anything I could use to run photoshop cs4 on my kubuntu system? | 05:58 |
| coffeeman | soreau: do you at least understand what's happening? | 05:59 |

| CSS_Guru | soreau is my buddy | 05:59 |
| nowimproved | my 360 controller blinks in ubuntu | 05:59 |
| Scunizi | CSS_Guru: if you're lucky it will run really slow in wine.. have you tried the gimp or gimpshop? gimpshop has the menu's rearranged to mirror photoshop | 05:59 |
| Out_Cold | figured as much lol.. can't afford a reboot this late in the urandom format | 05:59 |
| Phrogz | qwyeth - no. "size: 2GHz\ncapacity: 2400MHz". | 05:59 |
| wizzo50 | Dr. Willis, Do you know about how much them IDE cables are? | 06:00 |
| soreau | coffeeman: No I do not, sorry man | 06:00 |
| Phrogz | qwyeth - just trying to figure if I can/should get a hyper-threaded cpu, and if so if I can bump beyond 2.4GHz | 06:00 |
| soreau | CSS_Guru:) | 06:00 |
| Dr_Willis | wizzo50: check 'tigerdirect.com' perhaps. ive seen them - under $20 i think | 06:00 |

| Scunizi | ricardo_: that would make sense considering what grub has listed for windows..how do you want to reconfigure it? | 06:28 |
| soreau | ! grub | ricardo_ | 06:28 |
| ubottu | ricardo_: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 06:28 |
| Scunizi | ricardo_: I should actually ask, Why do you want to reconfigure it? | 06:28 |
| ricardo_ | i understand soreau , but the problem is that i select windows and i got a beep and "starting up..." message | 06:28 |
| ricardo_ | ok, ill check that website | 06:29 |
| soreau | ricardo_: Yikes | 06:29 |
| ricardo_ | this thing had never happened to me | 06:29 |
| ricardo_ | is windows xp btw | 06:29 |
| Scunizi | ricardo_: do a "sudo fdisk -l" .. it will list the partitions and drives.. look for the one with windows on it and see what the drive designation is.. ie sda1 etc.. | 06:30 |
| soreau | Peaches491_: If you do not need 3D working, then you could remove all fglrx packages and use the "radeon" driver instead of "fglrx" in xorg.conf | 06:30 |
| ricardo_ | ill do | 06:30 |
| Peaches491_ | soreau: i understand what you are saying. And i intend to try that. Now, this is not my first run in with faulty graphics drivers. I am just trying to find many alternative solutions to my problem, because in order to try them, i will need tp end this chat in order to restart my system and try | 06:31 |
| Peaches491_ | SO, on that note, i bid you all a fond farewell | 06:31 |
| richardcavell | Farewell, Peaches | 06:31 |
| lf4 | Freak why does it keep prompting me for a password when I try to access my shared folder on my other computer? the username and password are correct. | 06:32 |
| Scunizi | lf4: it's a samba thing.. not sure how to solve it though. | 06:33 |
| lf4 | Scunizi: Is this normal/running issue for Ubuntu? | 06:33 |
| Scunizi | lf4: also it might be the computer you're trying to access.. I've see that when using ubuntu to access a winxp box. | 06:33 |
| Scunizi | lf4: sometimes its a windows thing | 06:34 |
| lf4 | This is Ubuntu to Ubuntu lol both fresh installs. XD | 06:34 |
| Scunizi | lf4: which user name and pass are you using ?.. the one on the box you're accessing from or the one belonging to the machine you're accessing? | 06:34 |
| lf4 | Scunizi: Its my username and password (which are the same for both systems). | 06:35 |
| ricardo_ | Scunizi, is sda1 | 06:35 |
| ricardo_ | Scunizi, in grub it appeared as i pasted few seconds ago here. | 06:36 |
| Scunizi | lf4: try creating a new user on the machine you're accessing from and see if that works. | 06:36 |
| lf4 | ricardo_: what is your issue with grub? | 06:36 |
| zer0ne | lf4: through what protocol? | 06:36 |
| Scunizi | ricardo_: looks like it's right.. I don't have a solution sorry. | 06:36 |
| soreau | ricardo_: hd0,0 = sda1 hd0,1 = sda2 hd1,0 = sdb1 hd1,1 = sdb2 and so forth | 06:37 |
| ricardo_ | lf4, i cannot enter to windows, i get starting up... and sounds a beep | 06:37 |
| ricardo_ | thank you soreau , it seems to be right in grub | 06:37 |
| lf4 | Scunizi: Will do. zer0ne I'm going to guess that ubuntu uses the standard SMB protocol when I selected "sharing options". | 06:37 |
| Scunizi | soreau: he has an issue with windows "spinning" when he tries to load it. | 06:37 |
| soreau | ricardo_: When did this start happening? | 06:37 |
| ricardo_ | maybe, windows partition was corrupted :S | 06:37 |
| lf4 | ricardo_: mind showing your menu.lst file? | 06:38 |
| ricardo_ | when redimensioned the partition and installed ubuntu 9.04 | 06:38 |
| soreau | Scunizi: Ah, I know very little about the monster that is MS | 06:38 |
| zer0ne | i think ubuntu to ubuntu is through ssh and sftp | 06:38 |
| ricardo_ | lf4, i pasted it a few minutes ago here | 06:38 |
| ricardo_ | the windows's paragraph | 06:38 |

| zer0ne | make sure openssh are installed both sides and port 22 is accessible | 06:39 |

| soreau | newb2linux: No, why? | 06:40 |
| soreau | ! anybody | newb2linux | 06:40 |
| ubottu | newb2linux: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 06:40 |
| zer0ne | newb2linux: ./configure >> make >> make install ?? | 06:40 |
| bastid_razor | ricardo_, possibly you'll need the xp cd and do a restore from it. when resizing a windows partition sometimes files are erased. | 06:41 |
| Jordan_U | newb2linux: Chances are you don't really need to, what are you trying to do? | 06:41 |
| lf4 | ricardo_: that is all your menu.lst has? lol how did you boot to linux? | 06:41 |
| ricardo_ | lf4 is only the windows part | 06:41 |
| ricardo_ | :P | 06:41 |
| ricardo_ | maybe boot.ini was erased durante resizing | 06:41 |
| ricardo_ | *during | 06:41 |
| lf4 | ricardo_: yeah it sounds like part of the partition got corrupted. | 06:42 |
| newb2linux | sorry .. | 06:42 |
| ricardo_ | oh too bad | 06:42 |
| newb2linux | Was wondering if anybody would have time to help me compile XBMC for ubuntu ? | 06:42 |
| lf4 | ricardo_: its rare but can happen. | 06:42 |
| Jordan_U | ricardo_: What problem are you having? | 06:42 |
| newb2linux | I have a few questions about the .configure part. | 06:42 |
| soreau | newb2linux: Why compile? Just install it from the medibuntu repos, IIRC | 06:42 |
| ricardo_ | Jordan_U, i cannot enter to windows, my grub is ok, i only get "starting up" and a beep | 06:43 |
| Scunizi | ricardo_: unless they changed something between 8.04 and 9.04 in grub then it looks wierd.. check out mine.. http://pastebin.com/f6563f41e | 06:43 |
| newb2linux | Woudl taht bing me to the latest version ? ? | 06:43 |
| ricardo_ | Jordan_U, but, it seems to be that windows booted was corrupted :S | 06:43 |
| newb2linux | Kinda interested in learning to copmile .. | 06:43 |
| soreau | newb2linux: Not the very latest, but at least it would work | 06:43 |
| newb2linux | I have it working. . | 06:43 |
| newb2linux | just enjoying breaking it and fixing it . | 06:44 |

| ricardo_ | makeactive :O | 06:45 |
| silv3r_m00n | is there any accounting /ERP software there in synaptic ? | 06:45 |
| lf4 | Scunizi: nothing has changed with grub, http://pastebin.com/d234f7b23 it just depends on the system. | 06:45 |
| soreau | newb2linux: What question did you have about configure? | 06:45 |
| zer0ne | newb2linux: what is the problem with configure | 06:45 |
| Jordan_U | ricardo_: Is windows the first partition on the drive? | 06:45 |
| ricardo_ | Jordan_U, yes, it is /dev/sda1 | 06:46 |
| newb2linux | Im getting an error.. hold on I paste pin it. . | 06:46 |

| Scunizi | lf4: wow.. even that was different from the other two.. I'm not referring to the partition/drive references just the different line items that are present or not present when compairing | 06:47 |
| nomad77 | newb2linux: try this http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=HOW-TO_install_XBMC_for_Linux_on_Ubuntu_with_a_minimal_installation_step-by-step | 06:47 |
| newb2linux | can i PM you ? | 06:47 |
| soreau | newb2linux: Use './configure --prefix=/usr' | 06:47 |
| newb2linux | nomad77: thats no good.. thats how my 6 year old would install it. . | 06:48 |
| soreau | lol | 06:48 |
| newb2linux | but thanks. | 06:48 |
| lf4 | Scunizi: Yeah my system is a little crazy haha. | 06:48 |
| nomad77 | ok | 06:48 |
| lf4 | ricardo_: Is this a fresh install of ubuntu? | 06:48 |
| newb2linux | xbmclive. | 06:49 |
| ricardo_ | yes lf4 | 06:49 |
| ricardo_ | Scunizi, check pls http://pastebin.com/m2d082876 | 06:49 |

| Jordan_U | newb2linux: You have a pragmatic 6 year old ;) | 06:49 |
| soreau | newb2linux: No | 06:49 |

| newb2linux | your a god!! | 06:50 |
| newb2linux | thanks. . | 06:50 |
| soreau | ;) | 06:50 |
| lf4 | ricardo_: you might just have to recover the partition with a windows cd. | 06:50 |
| mubu | Hey guys, is crossover linux relevant? Can it replace wine? Thaks | 06:50 |
| * soreau goes to bed | 06:51 | |
| Scunizi | ricardo_: if you want to try that then you need to put "#" 's in front of every line of the old one to comment it out.. otherwise you'll have 2 instructions active for grub to figure out. | 06:51 |
| krammer__ | anyone using thunderbird | 06:51 |
| === redsoxking|afk is now known as redsoxking | ||

| Phil_Ewert | hello together, I am looking for a simple backup solution just for my Notebook on an external harddrive with the least configuring | 06:52 |
| newb2linux | can you explain the command you set so I can use it in the future ? | 06:52 |
| Jordan_U | mubu: Crossover is based on wine and helps fund wine development. AFAIK there is no downside to using crossover except the price | 06:52 |
| Scunizi | krammer__: don't use the thunderbird defaults for port numbers etc.. check google for the right setup.. it will show you | 06:52 |
| krammer__ | so then you dont use thunderbird then why say next question | 06:53 |
| SkyRocknRoll | what is the good iDE for python | 06:53 |

| SkyRocknRoll | ? | 06:53 |
| newb2linux | soreau: can you explain the command you set so I can use it in the future ? | 06:53 |
| Scunizi | krammer__: because your real question was why you couldn't get your email.. there are lots of people here using thunderbird.. once you got someone to answer yes you would have asked the next question.. It's much easier if you get right to the point. | 06:54 |
| krammer__ | SkyRocknRoll, Eclipse | 06:54 |
| Phil_Ewert | A simple backup solution for ubuntu : Anybody ? | 06:54 |
| SkyRocknRoll | krammer__, size of that ide ? | 06:54 |
| nomad77 | Phil_Ewert: SimpleBackup ? http://simplelinuxbkup.sourceforge.net/ | 06:54 |
| krammer__ | Scunizi, that was why I ask is anyone is using thunderbird, you shouldnt have responded | 06:54 |
| Phil_Ewert | nomad77, thx. | 06:54 |
| zer0ne | Phil_Ewert: tar | 06:54 |
| SkyRocknRoll | krammer__, if it is small then its appreciable :) | 06:54 |
| Scunizi | krammer__: stop.. I gave you the answer.. | 06:55 |
| Scunizi | !ask | krammer__ | 06:55 |
| ubottu | krammer__: 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. :-) | 06:55 |
| bastid_razor | krammer__, i don't use thunderbird either but Scunizi has given you the correct answer. | 06:55 |
| soreau | newb2linux: ./configure invokes the configure script in the CWD (current working directory) and --perfix=/usr means to configure the build so the target is /usr (the standard prefix, usually the default is /usr/local) | 06:55 |
| krammer__ | ok I am at google i cant still connect so why next | 06:55 |
| afv | krammer__, but you can't connect now or never could? | 06:55 |

| Scunizi | ricardo_: well.. it was worth a shot.. do you play games on the win side? is that why you're dual booting? | 07:01 |
| bastid_razor | ricardo_, try the xp cd and a restore first.. windows partitions have files scattered all over. | 07:01 |
| ricardo_ | no, is the computer of a "switcher" xD | 07:01 |
| ricardo_ | Scunizi, he wanted to try ubuntu | 07:01 |
| ricardo_ | (well, this weekend is the only thing he will try XD) | 07:02 |

| `boz | hi all anyone know how to tell what system your machine is running i.e 32 bit or 64 bit (ubuntu)? | 07:02 |
| Jordan_U | ricardo_: So copy anything important before you whipe it out | 07:02 |
| ricardo_ | yes Jordan_U , i think ill try the fixmbr thing with the windows cd | 07:02 |
| Scunizi | ricardo_: ah.. somebody elses computer.. if he has a normal install cd for win. you could install virtualbox and then install windows there.. run windows inside of ubuntu :) | 07:02 |
| Jordan_U | `boz: uname -r | 07:02 |
| Jordan_U | `boz: I meant "uname -a" | 07:03 |
| ricardo_ | Scunizi, i think it could be fine, but before ill try to do the fixboot and fixmbr thing | 07:03 |
| karatekickz | when I run a tar.gz in the archive mounter my system seems to do nothing | 07:03 |
| ricardo_ | with the recovery tools of windows cd | 07:03 |

| ricardo_ | if that doesnt works, then... i'll do that you say, Scunizi | 07:04 |

| digitaltao | hey quick question, how would i format a microsd card that i have mounted to fat32? | 07:08 |

| sn00zer | pronoy: Ubuntu considers keyloggers hacker tools and won't discuss them, you'll have better luck in another channel, and only be ignored and kicked here. | 07:10 |

| kpkeerthi | Scunizi: Yes. I have dkms installed (needed for the nvidia binary driver) | 07:11 |
| pronoy | sn00zer: no..keyloggers are not hackers tools...and they are deifintely supported if a valid reason is available...otherwise the package lkl would have been removed from the universe repos...secondly the question of why isn't debatable since i have a very legitimate reason for doing so...so thank you for your comment but i think i'll ask again... | 07:12 |
| pronoy | does anyone have any experience with a keylogger in ubuntu ? | 07:13 |
| Scunizi | kpkeerthi: that might be it but no guarantees.. try uninstalling dkms and reinstalling the kernel again as a test.. you can always put dkms back.. | 07:13 |

| kpkeerthi | Scunizi: Why would dkms affect cpu freq scaling? Me wonders. | 07:14 |
| WIGGMPk | `boz: yea.. here's my first though.. dont use a freaking ` in front of your name.. makes it harder to tab your name lol.. second thought.. ASUS makes a good product and they stand behind it.. I have used them many times and currently run an ASUS laptop (and some desktops built for friends) | 07:14 |

| `boz | graphics are direct off the motherboard | 07:14 |

| afv | olimones, what problem? | 07:16 |
| pronoy | voss haha...no actually its more of a cheating in exam thing....but the fiance one always hits hard :D | 07:16 |
| Scunizi | karatekickz: not sure if this will work. but ctrl+alt+F2.. log in as the 2nd user then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start and see where it lands you. :) | 07:17 |
| olimones | my laptop do not have any sound | 07:17 |
| karatekickz | running xfce | 07:17 |
| olimones | after installing kubuntu 9.04 | 07:17 |
| `boz | amd dual athlon 7750 | 07:17 |
| howie | so can anyone tell me how to install kernel v2.6.30 | 07:17 |
| Nitrodist | hey, quick question here | 07:18 |
| `boz | google earth doesn't run smoothly | 07:18 |
| pronoy | voss so any experience with lkl or uberkey or thc-vlogger? | 07:18 |
| voss | nope | 07:18 |
| Nitrodist | I'm about to install ubuntu 9.04 | 07:18 |
| pronoy | hmm | 07:18 |
| `boz | most apps in wine not working correctly | 07:18 |
| Nitrodist | problem is | 07:18 |
| ricardo_ | boz | 07:18 |
| karatekickz | <Scunizi>:I assume that means I should be able to run a gnome session a kde session at the same time.. after I find where to log in another user? | 07:18 |
| Scunizi | pronoy: if you're trying to map a keyboard there are other tools.. | 07:18 |
| Jordan_U | karatekickz: XFCE should have an option to "switch users" , that will do what you want | 07:18 |
| pronoy | Scunizi please continue...what tools are you reffering to ? | 07:19 |
| Jordan_U | karatekickz: Yes | 07:19 |
| `boz | and just tried flight gear flight simulator | 07:19 |
| Nitrodist | under Step 4 of 7, it doesn't let me specify which disk to use if I want to install them side by side | 07:19 |
| ertan | hi anyone know about airmon commands? i have a some problem.. | 07:19 |
| Scunizi | karatekickz: I've heard of it. use kdm instead of gdm to start x | 07:19 |
| `boz | yes ricardo | 07:19 |
| karatekickz | im running mythbuntu and cant find where to log another user on.... xfce | 07:19 |
| Jordan_U | `boz: What GPU?' | 07:19 |
| afv | olimones, you checked it's not muted and that stuff? and what sound card do you use? | 07:19 |
| sn00zer | karatekickz: There is also a 'startx : session' command that will start another gretter screen. Thats not the exact command, can't remember it, sorry. | 07:19 |
| voss | boz, Wine even for stuff that works requires settings to be set. I use Wine for eve online and WOW and it works well enough that I havent touched my windows pc in over a month | 07:19 |
| Scunizi | pronoy: hang on and I'll look.. they are pretty typical when trying to map a keyboard espicially one with multimedia keys etc.. | 07:19 |
| `boz | how do i find that out jordan? | 07:20 |
| Dysfunctional | Hmm is there anyway to stop a xserver completely? | 07:20 |
| llutz | sn00zer: startx -- :1 | 07:20 |
| olimones | i did. let me see my card information... | 07:20 |
| Nitrodist | so can anyone tell me how the ubuntu installer works with partitioning? | 07:20 |
| pronoy | voss you're experienced with compiling things from source right ? | 07:20 |
| karatekickz | I have seen the screen to log other on before but I think that is when I am logged off | 07:20 |
| Jordan_U | `boz: "lspci | grep VGA" in a terminal | 07:20 |
| Rashid | can I directly upgrade from 7.10 to 9.04 directly? | 07:20 |
| Nitrodist | I don't feel comfortable hitting next and it deleting my other, important, partition | 07:20 |
| ricardo_ | Dysfunctional, ctrl+alt+f1 | 07:20 |
| voss | pronoy, Ive done it but I dont do it often enough to help youi | 07:20 |
| ricardo_ | and then kill the process corresponding to x server | 07:21 |
| nomad77 | Dysfunctional: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 07:21 |
| karatekickz | like if I say logoff ... is it possible to pull that up whilelogged on? | 07:21 |
| Jordan_U | Rashid: no | 07:21 |
| ertan | does anyone know what does it mean Found 5 processes that could cause trouble. | 07:21 |
| Rashid | Jordan_U: what should I do? | 07:21 |
| ricardo_ | .... or you could do that nomad77 says :P | 07:21 |
| pronoy | voss its just that i tried to install thc-vlogger and i get wierd errors...care to take a look at the outupt ? | 07:21 |
| Dysfunctional | Nomad77: yea i have tried that, i still get the error that xserver is running on display ) | 07:21 |
| voss | pronoy, I wouldnt even know what I was looking at | 07:21 |
| sn00zer | llutz: Thanks, I haven't used it in at least a year. | 07:21 |
| Dysfunctional | 0* | 07:21 |
| pronoy | voss ok no problem ...worth a shot :) | 07:22 |
| Nitrodist | ok, so apparently I'm supposed to use some software to partition the disk by my self before I even go to the ubuntu installation disk? | 07:22 |
| Nitrodist | anyone? | 07:22 |
| purpleposeidon | Hello. The disk that provides /usr is corrupt, but I've got a liveusb. How can I get a list of packages that were installed, for reinstallation? | 07:22 |
| tracyanne | Is there anyone on here who can help me change the default partitioning on Ubuntu | 07:22 |
| Jordan_U | Rashid: upgrade to 8.04, then 8.10, then 9.04 | 07:22 |
| nomad77 | Dysfunctional: reboot to single user or try sudo telinit 2 maybe | 07:22 |
| voss | Ubuntu has spoiled me so much that I rarely even need to use the CLI | 07:22 |
| ertan | does anyone know what does it mean Found 5 processes that could cause trouble. | 07:22 |
| losher | Nitrodist: if you have existing partitions you want to keep, you need to select the manual partition option during install | 07:22 |
| Skaperen | Nitrodist: you can do that if you want, or leave it unpartitioned | 07:22 |
| redsoxking | what is the short cut on the keyboard for the terminal | 07:22 |
| Nitrodist | losher: can I trust ubuntu to partition it correctly without data loss? | 07:22 |
| rohan | i have a core2duo system, with 4GB ram. i have install 32bit version of ubuntu 8.04. how do i ensure that all the 4GB ram i utilised? "free" currently shows total mem as "3098500". i am not so keen on installing 64bit distro. | 07:23 |
| voss | And most of my CLI stuff these days I can cut and paste :) | 07:23 |
| Nitrodist | I have acronis disk director | 07:23 |
| Jordan_U | Rashid: Or upgrade to 8.04 and wait untill the next LTS release ( you can upgrade directly from one LTS release to the next ) | 07:23 |
| Nitrodist | so it's not a problem to do it that way | 07:23 |
| Rashid | Jordan_U: Thank you. | 07:23 |
| Jordan_U | Rashid: np | 07:23 |
| Skaperen | Nitrodist: do you have files or partitions you want to keep? if so, where? | 07:23 |
| losher | Nitrodist: frankly, any time you mess with partitions, if you don't have a full backup beforehand, you risk losing it all if you get something wrong.... | 07:23 |
| karatekickz | anyway to force my monitor into a different resolution its not finding my proper res even though it id my lcd perfectly | 07:23 |
| Nitrodist | meh, it'd be a earache to fix, but nothing too serious | 07:24 |
| === Deshiken is now known as Ioryu | ||
| voss | Is it terrible of me to admit that I dont even use the CLI much in ubuntu? | 07:24 |
| Dysfunctional | hmmm better yet whats the command to give a process higher priority? | 07:24 |
| Nitrodist | Skaperen: just windows XP | 07:24 |
| Nitrodist | I want to dual boot :P | 07:24 |
| Jordan_U | rohan: The server kernel can support up to 16 GIG of RAM, though any one app can only access 4 GIG at a time | 07:24 |
| WIGGMPk | karatekickz: i would prolly say its not your monitor... what kinda graphic card do you have? | 07:24 |
| Dysfunctional | or is there a GUI that i can use for that | 07:24 |
| ertan | when i hit the "sudo airmon-ng start wlan0." im getting this message [Found 5 processes that could cause trouble. | 07:24 |
| rohan | Jordan_U: ah ok, so server kernel has PAE enabled, but not the generic kernel? | 07:25 |
| Jordan_U | karatekickz: What GPU? | 07:25 |
| pronoy | voss a bit yes :) you see CLI is the actual thing that unix/linux is powered by | 07:25 |
| karatekickz | nvidia with proper drivers installed | 07:25 |
| Jordan_U | rohan: Yes | 07:25 |
| Skaperen | Nitrodist: you have a partition you want Ubuntu to not touch ... you have a special case ... you need to select the partitions to install on to manually | 07:25 |
| Nitrodist | so I'm guessing it's probably safer to use acronis to repartition than to let ubuntu do ti? | 07:25 |
| karatekickz | it has the resolution in xp | 07:25 |
| Scunizi | pronoy: keymapper is one (repo), keytouch, .. what kind of keyboard are you trying to use.. language difference? or what | 07:25 |
| Nitrodist | kk | 07:25 |
| voss | pronoy, but the ubuntu gui is so functional I dont need to use the CLI for much | 07:25 |
| Nitrodist | thanks guys | 07:25 |
| karatekickz | think its a 6200 | 07:25 |
| pronoy | Scunizi i have one which's in a different language yes | 07:25 |
| WIGGMPk | Dysfunctional: "sudo cpufreq-selector -c # -g <governor>" -c 0 (Core 0) -g (Performance) | 07:25 |
| Nitrodist | be back later if I have any more problems | 07:25 |
| Nitrodist | cya | 07:25 |
| nomad77 | karatekickz: try nvidia-settings | 07:25 |
| Scunizi | pronoy: which one.. | 07:25 |
| ertan | when i hit the "sudo airmon-ng start wlan0." im getting this message [Found 5 processes that could cause trouble. | 07:25 |
| losher | Nitrodist: if you partition by hand, you know exactly what you'll get. I think that's a plus, but you have to have some idea what you're doing | 07:25 |
| olimones | can't find where the info is. i'm looking it up | 07:25 |
| Skaperen | Nitrodist: if XP already takes up the whole disk (factory installed XP will) then you MUST repartition the XP in a way that keeps it safe using the appropriate tool | 07:25 |
| pronoy | Scunizi but i have an english one too which i think i'll use most...but with excessive multimedia keys | 07:26 |
| rohan | Jordan_U: are there any disadvantages of using the server kernel on a general "desktop" system? | 07:26 |
| afv | olimones, lspci | 07:26 |
| Jordan_U | Nitrodist: Partitioning with Ubuntu is as safe if not safer than any other method, but repartitioning always carries some risk | 07:26 |
| * xine waves hello | 07:26 | |
| Skaperen | losher: another doomed user | 07:26 |
| olimones | ok | 07:26 |
| karatekickz | used the gui's applications and found nothing btw... I spot to change the monitor but my resolution wasnt listed | 07:26 |
| karatekickz | will try that command | 07:26 |
| voss | I dont even need to use the cli to install graphics drivers anymore or network drivers , ubuntu just sees them. | 07:26 |
| sn00zer | ertan: it means those processes are probably using your wifi card in some way and might not like airmon changing the wifi mode to monitor. | 07:26 |
| legend2440 | tracyanne: http://easierbuntu.blogspot.com/2008/03/setting-up-your-home-directory-on.html | 07:26 |
| pronoy | voss well cheers for the great job on gnome or kde or whatever ur using :) | 07:27 |
| Scunizi | pronoy: synaptic shows a special appelate to switch keyboard layouts on the fly.. if both keyboards work plugged in together and you only need to switch between the layouts that might be the answer. | 07:27 |
| Skaperen | Jordan_U: unfortunately, making a dual-OS box increases the risk of those partition disasters | 07:27 |
| pronoy | Scunizi ah didn't know that..i'll check it out | 07:27 |
| ertan | sn00zer so what should i do? | 07:27 |
| tracyanne | I'm looking for help to change the default partitioning when installinh Ubuntu | 07:27 |
| legend2440 | tracyanne: http://easierbuntu.blogspot.com/2008/03/setting-up-your-home-directory-on.html | 07:27 |
| ertan | sn00zer so what should i do? im very noob for linux.. | 07:27 |
| `boz | back again, thanks ricardo | 07:28 |
| sn00zer | ertan: for example, I can't be in monitor mode and connect with wpa_supplicant at the same time, I have to choose, monitor or internet, can't do both. | 07:28 |
| `boz | gpu 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon 2100 | 07:28 |
| ertan | hmm | 07:28 |
| Rashid | I can't upgrade to Hardy from Gutsy now. The repositories are not available anymore... I guess. Should I download 9.04 and install it over gutsy? will I lose data? | 07:28 |
| pronoy | Scunizi btw i am trying to compile thc-vlogger form source and i get the error of not having [/lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/build which happens to be the linux source build directory | 07:28 |
| karatekickz | nvidia-settings just gave me the gui I already looked at | 07:28 |
| ertan | sn00zer : so i must disconnected isnt it? | 07:28 |
| sn00zer | ertan: Check out the five processes with conflicts, find out what they are doing and if its an acceptable loss for starting airmon | 07:28 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: what do you want the partitioning to be like? are you preserving existing partitions? resizing them? | 07:28 |
| pronoy | Scunizi how to rectify this ? | 07:28 |
| Jordan_U | rohan: None that I know of, PAE itself slows things down if you don't need it ( though obviously you do ) and there may be other tweaks that are slightly detrimental to Desktops but I don't think there is anything that won't work with -server and the performance difference is probably negligable | 07:29 |
| Scunizi | pronoy: sudo apt-get install build-essential might take care of it. | 07:29 |
| olimones | it says: Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc R700 Audio Device [Radeon HD 4000 Series | 07:29 |
| karatekickz | this is a bigger problem because the resolutionis listed for my monitor... its a bit of a strange res | 07:29 |
| olimones | can it helps/ | 07:29 |
| karatekickz | resolution isnt listed that | 07:29 |
| karatekickz | is | 07:29 |
| pronoy | Scunizi already to its newest version | 07:29 |

| afv | olimones, just a sec | 07:30 |

| pronoy | Scunizi thanks for helping with the keymapping though | 07:30 |
| tracyanne | legend2440 that's not what I'm after. I do that on every install I do. It gets tedious after the first 100 | 07:30 |
| nomad77 | karatekickz: maybe your driver then. or your xorg.conf dunno my nvidia on laptops fine | 07:30 |
| Scunizi | pronoy: np.. I tried to map a logitec once and ran into a couple of tools to do it.. it's been over a year though. good luck | 07:31 |
| legend2440 | tracyanne: you wan root swap and seperate home partition? | 07:31 |
| afv | olimones, can you 'play' with the volume bar? increase and decrease the volume? | 07:31 |
| Jordan_U | rohan: If you don't have your heart set on Ubuntu Fedora 11 actually uses a 64 bit kernel on 64 bit CPUs even in the 32 bit version, which is the ideal thing to do ( 64 bit kernels work fine with fully 32 bit userland ) | 07:31 |
| pronoy | Scunizi thanks | 07:31 |

| `boz | with resect to ubuntu | 07:32 |
| WIGGMPk | How come things (applications) keep disappearing from my "Open with" section under properties of a file | 07:32 |

| pronoy | the commands that run in rc.local are not gdm related right ? i mean it gets executed at boot right ? | 07:32 |
| Dysfunctional | Well.. see my problem has been getting Wine to run in it own Xserver. I keep getting, Xserver on display 0 already running, when i use the xserver shutdown commands.. | 07:32 |

| newb2linux | whats is the best terminal command to find out how much space I have left on my drive ? | 07:33 |
| afv | olimones, did it list anything? | 07:33 |
| tracyanne | legend2440 yes, but I want it by default, which means a cutom install | 07:33 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: if I was going to be installing 100 machines, I'd first install a master, then replicate it | 07:33 |
| sn00zer | ubuntunewbie: I used to have that problem. If I left it alone sometimes it would catch up and recover, sometimes it crashed and I had to kill it. I always had the problem when I opened too many tabs. | 07:33 |
| olimones | yes it did | 07:33 |
| Jordan_U | `boz: ATI cards don't have great support right now ( though it's getting better ). If System > Administration > Hardware Drivers shows proprietary drivers available they will probably give you better performance | 07:33 |

| WIGGMPk | Skaperen: think they are "leet" and who are you? are you "leet"? or just 12? | 07:35 |
| tracyanne | legend2440 I've looked into that I didn't see anything about changing default partition | 07:35 |
| `boz | tried that jordan and no drivers available hence my upgrade to new motherboard with linux support as first step | 07:35 |
| `boz | foxconn mboards have no linux support | 07:35 |
| Skaperen | losher: to use a computer with any OS properly, one has to do some learning ... the trouble is, the easier the user interface gets, the more it lures people in to their doom ... Windows is the worst ... Ubuntu can do this more and more, now, too | 07:35 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen not all the same hardware | 07:35 |
| ubuntunewbie | sn00zer: I am not even opening any flash page or heavy graphic website , hopefully it recover , i still can open another firefox and run well with it.Just asking it's kinda annoy while reading and grey out | 07:36 |
| Skaperen | WIGGMPk: I'm leet enough for you to not worry | 07:36 |
| sn00zer | ubuntunewbie: I don't know, my issue was lack of resources I suppose. An upgrade to newer release of OS helped, when FF had a new release it was entirely fixed. (This was with FF 2 back in Fiesty) | 07:36 |

| Skaperen | tracyanne: if they differ by disk size, of course they need different partitioning | 07:37 |
| Jordan_U | owen1: You could run "sudo apt-get install packagename --no-act" and copy the dependencies that it lists to be installed, then run "sudo apt-get install" with that list of packages | 07:37 |

| afv | olimones, 2nd post of that page (2nd page) | 07:38 |

| Skaperen | WIGGMPk: if that's how you want to define your virtual world, who am I to say that's wrong | 07:39 |
| Scunizi | ims: some cable modems are also routers.. if they have connections for more than one computer then most likely they are also a router. | 07:39 |
| newb2linux | Is there a command to increase the size of a partition in linux ? | 07:39 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen usually 12 gig root 2 to 4 gig swap depending on netbook or notebook the rest home | 07:40 |
| olimones | dv7 2185dx | 07:40 |
| losher | Skaperen: 10G for root, twice the amount of ram for swap, and the rest /home. | 07:40 |
| afv | olimones, what is the output of "cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0|grep -i codec" then? | 07:40 |
| nazgul | newb2linux: you can use gparted if you'd like to resize using a GUI app. | 07:40 |
| ims | scunizi,c-s-b, Is it possible to make one my server(the 1 connected to cable)? | 07:40 |
| dot | why can't I watch a bought dvd on ubuntu? It gives an error all the time | 07:40 |
| dot | ubuntu 9.04 | 07:40 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: but you'd have some kind of logic that determines what the partition sizes should be, based on scanning hardware configuration like disk size, memory size, etc | 07:40 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen I've never need more than parity for RAM swap | 07:40 |
| newb2linux | hmm.. Im running XBMClive. | 07:40 |
| Scunizi | ims: yes but I don't know how. | 07:40 |
| SkyRocknRoll | http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ in that page which one should i download for python prgramming ? | 07:40 |
| ims | I don't have a router. | 07:41 |
| newb2linux | would need to be terminal . . | 07:41 |
| josh_93 | Hi. I have a horribly noob question to ask. How do i use terminal to send a file via ftp? I want to transfer it to my /public_html/ DIR, but it keeps transferring it to the "/" home directory. | 07:41 |
| Jordan_U | owen1: That will install the package, it just won't install recommended packages with it ( only neccisary dependencies ) | 07:41 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen Ubuntu already do that | 07:41 |
| C-S-B | ims: loosely guiding, you'd need to install dhcp, dns, etc | 07:41 |
| Scunizi | josh_93: you're trying to upload a file to a remote server? | 07:41 |
| losher | josh_93: there is a cd command in ftp to change the remote directory... | 07:41 |
| owen1 | Jordan_U: that was my question | 07:41 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: actually, I've done my swap sizing based not on how much RAM I have, but based on how fast my disk is ... how fast to read the whole swap space ... I generally configure 30 seconds worth of swap space | 07:41 |
| olimones | let me see | 07:42 |
| ims | c-s-b, any http for that? | 07:42 |
| nazgul | newb2linux: this should have good info to help you along to do it at the command line: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_resizing_ext3_partitions | 07:42 |
| C-S-B | ims: the other pc would get an address from the servers dhcp. | 07:42 |
| Jordan_U | owen1: Oh, I misunderstood. Yes, "sudo aptitude install -R packagename" will do what you want | 07:42 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen I use the Mandrake/Mandriva rule of thumb, used to be a MDK user | 07:42 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: so you have your logic to size partitions coded up and ready or even already running? | 07:42 |
| josh_93 | losher: like i said.. horrible noob question, its 3AM here and im sleepy.. i have no idea why i did not think to use the CD command.. i kept trying to use the DIR one.. thanks though lol >_< | 07:42 |
| owen1 | Jordan_U: np | 07:42 |
| richardcavell | Skaperen: how much is about 30 seconds? | 07:42 |
| losher | josh_93: no problem... | 07:43 |
| Skaperen | richardcavell: varies by machine ... was a lot more on SATA | 07:43 |
| C-S-B | ims: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=857928 | 07:43 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen The default Ubuntu install already works that out I just need to modify it for 3 instead of 2 partitions | 07:43 |
| Skaperen | richardcavell: but on my 2 new machines, I make swap ZERO | 07:43 |
| olimones | Codec: IDT 92HD75B3X5 | 07:43 |
| C-S-B | ims: this seems to be a thread around your desirs | 07:43 |
| ims | c-s-b, ok thanks for that! | 07:43 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen But I don't know how | 07:43 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: well, I have zero experience making a new installer with different defaults for Ubuntu ... I've done it for other distros, but that was more just writing some big script | 07:44 |
| losher | Skaperen: tracyanne: you guys know about https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq, right? | 07:44 |
| om26er | !kernel | 07:44 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 07:44 |
| E05 | can anyone see this | 07:45 |
| E05 | ? | 07:45 |
| Skaperen | losher: no I don't, yet ... thanks | 07:45 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen OK thanks If I could work out how they do it, then no prob, they use gparted | 07:45 |
| Scunizi | E05: I seee youuu | 07:45 |
| E05 | thanks scunizi | 07:45 |

| tracyanne | losher No looking now | 07:46 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: search around the ubuntu wiki ... might be explanation how to rebuild a customized ISO | 07:46 |
| losher | tracyanne: the install scripts are publicly available. I suppose you could read them.... | 07:46 |
| E05 | anyone here got ubuntu running on a k9a2 platnum | 07:46 |
| losher | !remaster | 07:46 |

| tracyanne | losher I already have my own rule of thumb for swap that I'm comfortable with | 07:46 |
| afv | olimones, at devices instead of autodetect can you select other options? and do they work if you click on the "play" button? | 07:46 |
| Skaperen | losher: thanks again | 07:47 |
| Skaperen | losher: I think that's just what tracyanne needed | 07:47 |
| losher | tracyanne: that's fine. Just offering more options... | 07:47 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen There are, but I haven't found any that answer this question | 07:47 |
| olimones | i'm there | 07:48 |
| afv | ok | 07:48 |
| voss | I have ubuntu running on pcchips a15g :) | 07:48 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: the remaster is the framework to make custom installs ... dig into the components to see what you can change | 07:48 |
| afv | olimones, the next step is some lines above this ^ | 07:48 |
| dabbill | Ubuntu just updated GDM, now i dont have the normal ubuntu login window. Any way to fix this? | 07:48 |
| tracyanne | ALL I've been throw all those customisation wikis, I haven't found anything that deals with changing the deafult partitioning | 07:49 |
| afv | dabbill, what is the normal ubuntu login window? | 07:49 |
| olimones | ok | 07:49 |
| afv | dabbill, and what ubuntu version? | 07:49 |
| dabbill | afv, where you type in username, then password | 07:49 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: and if it helps, I made a script that can convert an Ubuntu ISO into a special hybrid-ISO that can dual purpose as both an ISO and as an image for flash drives | 07:49 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen Yeah, I guess I'll have to keep on digging Thanks | 07:49 |
| dabbill | afv, running 9.10 | 07:49 |
| afv | dabbill, but why isn't it normal now? :p | 07:49 |
| bonez46 | How can I get the correct driver source for this mobo video adapter >> VIA Technologies, Inc. K8M890CE/K8N890CE [Chrome 9] | 07:49 |
| losher | tracyanne: I think default partitioning is handled by the install scripts, called ubiquity? written in python... | 07:50 |
| mmm4m5m | Hi. Anything like program for heritage or agelong tree (not sure about the english word)? | 07:50 |
| afv | yes, gdm has been updated.. do you need the older version? | 07:50 |
| dabbill | afv, it lists my name, then enter mypassword after i click on my name | 07:50 |
| tracyanne | losher Yes it is. I was trying get some help in understanding it | 07:50 |
| olimones | i have 3 options and non of them seem to work when i test them | 07:50 |
| Scunizi | mmm4m5m: geneology? yes.. gramps | 07:50 |
| dabbill | afv, also under preferences i can no longer edit the login screen | 07:51 |
| mmm4m5m | Scunizi: looks that is it :), thanks a lot, will check it :) | 07:51 |
| afv | dabbill, the new preferences it's not yet implemented: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1202843 | 07:51 |
| afv | more info there | 07:51 |
| losher | tracyanne: might have better luck on one of the developers lists. Is there a current maintainer? Sometimes they answer questions... | 07:51 |
| afv | 41 pages to read :p | 07:51 |
| bonez46 | Scunizi: hi again. hoping to get drivers installed for my system, I just switched monitors. and can't get anything higher than 800x600 | 07:52 |
| afv | olimones, let me see.. | 07:52 |
| afv | hmm | 07:52 |
| dabbill | afv, so i just have to wait for more updates? | 07:52 |
| Scunizi | bonez46: ati or nvidia? | 07:52 |
| olimones | afv: not really. I am just tire of using win2 and want to use linux but as a new user i am having some troubles | 07:52 |
| bonez46 | Scunizi: these are VIA Technologies.. | 07:52 |
| tracyanne | losher It can't hurt to ask, any lists I should try? | 07:52 |
| bonez46 | VIA Technologies, Inc. K8M890CE/K8N890CE [Chrome 9] | 07:53 |
| afv | olimones, sure, i'm trying to find someone with the same problem | 07:53 |
| afv | dabbill, yes, they'll come ;) | 07:53 |
| dabbill | afv, thanks, that all i needed to know =p | 07:53 |
| Scunizi | bonez46: via is beyond my experience.. chrome can be a pain in the ...... best to www.google.com/linux and search chrome 9 ubuntu | 07:53 |
| Skaperen | OK I did have a question ... why I dropped by ... I installed 9.04 (not UNR) on a new netbook ... after installing and rebooting, I added a new user ... but the new user does not show up in the list of users I can manage in the "users and groups" tool ... BUT ... the user actually works fine ... I can login and all seems to work ... I just can't administer it like delete it | 07:53 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen I've had that happen too, I couldn't work out why it happened, so I backed up the user removed the user and recreated the user | 07:54 |
| losher | tracyanne: I see #ubuntu-devel and #ubuntu-installer. I've never used either. Archives at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com | 07:55 |
| dabbill | I am just happy that my built in wifi finally works. | 07:55 |
| afv | olimones, can you follow this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7299632&postcount=60 | 07:55 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: I can't remove the user ... unless I edit /etc/{groups,passwd,shadow} ... :-( | 07:55 |
| dabbill | signal strength is a little low, but it works | 07:55 |
| tracyanne | losher Thanks, I'll give them a try | 07:55 |
| olimones | sure | 07:55 |
| afv | olimones, instead of "sudo vim /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base" you can use "gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base". you may find it easier ;) | 07:56 |
| sn00zer | afv: It may be easier, but vim is always an adventure :) | 07:56 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen Try creating the user in the Users and Groups, then assign them a different home directory, then edit the user and assign them the same name directory | 07:57 |
| Skaperen | losher: is there a channel for Ubuntu on ARM developers? A friend and I are interested in that ... when we can get one of those machines | 07:57 |
| bastidrazor | Skaperen, deluser for user removal | 07:57 |
| afv | sn00py, :p | 07:57 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: can't creat it again ... already exists ... unless I wipe and re-install (I could do this ... it's a new machine) | 07:58 |
| piscooo | Hi. How can I solve this problem: http://pastebin.com/m691035ad | 07:58 |
| piscooo | Don't want to upgrade kerner :( | 07:58 |
| ubuntunewbie | sn00zer: just to inform it's gone now , all things goes back to original. ;-) | 07:58 |
| Skaperen | bastidrazor: yeah, that's a fallback ... but I wanted to investigate this first ... why the GUI tool missed it | 07:58 |
| piscooo | and now I cannot complie php as the compiler is fucked due to log in pastebin | 07:58 |
| losher | Skaperen: I see #ubuntu-arm listed in http://irclogs.ubuntu.com.... | 07:58 |
| sn00zer | ubuntunewbie: Thats good. | 07:58 |
| bazhang | piscooo, please no cursing | 07:59 |
| Skaperen | bastidrazor: more likely I'll just leave it ... don't really have a desire to delete it ... just curious WTF it's doing | 07:59 |
| piscooo | bazhang: huh? | 07:59 |
| lstarnes | piscooo: which version of the linux kernel do you use? | 07:59 |
| Scunizi | piscooo: sudo apt-get -f install .. will fix dependancy problems.. then when it tries to update after that if you don't want the kernel then unckeck it. | 07:59 |
| Skaperen | losher: OK, thanks | 07:59 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen I'm pretty sure I just deleted the directory as root | 07:59 |
| piscooo | lstarnes: 2.4.27-3-386 | 07:59 |
| ubuntunewbie | sn00zer: yeh , I just leave it and come back it gone.It'll eventually recover as you said , :-) hehe | 07:59 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen and then started again | 07:59 |
| balleyne | I'm trying to help a friend who's installed some Qt libraries that conflict with applications in Ubuntu -- how can we wipe Qt and reinstall from the repos? | 07:59 |
| lstarnes | piscooo: you are using ubuntu, right? | 07:59 |
| piscooo | well, debian in this case. | 08:00 |
| lstarnes | piscooo: this channel is for ubuntu, not debian | 08:00 |
| bazhang | piscooo, #debian | 08:00 |
| piscooo | yes, but #debian is sleeping :( | 08:00 |
| sn00zer | ubuntunewbie: Strange isn't it? I think its just you working faster than firefox, or possibly the machine. A RAM upgrade could help? | 08:00 |
| lstarnes | piscooo: that doesn't mean that you can ask here | 08:00 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: the user is complete ... entries in /etc/{groups,passwd,shadow} and its /home directory ... so I'd have to clean up all that or use deluser ... but this is curiosity not a real desire to delete | 08:01 |
| piscooo | alright.. | 08:01 |
| howie | i thought ubuntu was practically deb...? | 08:01 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: wherever this tool keeps its database of what it manages, it failed to add it there | 08:01 |
| lstarnes | howie: it's based on debian, but it isn't debian | 08:01 |
| voss | howie, no debian is almost ubuntu ;-) | 08:01 |
| howie | i thought ubuntu was just easier to install :0 | 08:01 |
| Skaperen | ubuntu stole code from debian (legal, it's open source) ... and improved it | 08:02 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen OK, I actually had to back the user up, it was on a clients machine, and I didn't notice until I was giving her some lessons, and she had already downloaded a bunch of Music and Photos | 08:02 |
| tracyanne | Skaperen but I don't recall any issues with /etc/{groups,passwd,shadow} | 08:03 |
| Skaperen | tracyanne: ah, yeah, then you would have to | 08:03 |
| howie | piscooo: try asking in #linux its not distro specific? | 08:03 |
| voss | skap, its not that simple...ubuntu takes code from debian but also contributes code to debian | 08:03 |
| Thorn1 | Can someone help me trouble shoot my audio? The guide on the Ubuntu Forums wasn't helpful | 08:03 |
| TigerStyle | hi, I dont thing my laptop likes Ubuntu | 08:04 |
| Skaperen | voss: it's all open source ... lots of code goes around to other distros from each ... for example, some distros are based on ubuntu, too | 08:04 |
| TigerStyle | the CD drive has failed | 08:04 |
| TigerStyle | and my bios doesnt seem to want to boot from USB | 08:04 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: use a flash drive | 08:04 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: hmmm ... what CAN it boot from? | 08:04 |
| afv | olimones, how is it going? | 08:05 |
| TigerStyle | internal hard drive :P? | 08:05 |
| Thorn1 | Can anybody help me troubleshoot my audio issues? | 08:05 |
| voss | tiger, replace the cd-rom drive? | 08:05 |
| TigerStyle | that costs money :( | 08:05 |
| TigerStyle | lol | 08:05 |
| voss | how do you know the cd-rom drive has failed? | 08:05 |
| TigerStyle | because I cant burn cd's | 08:06 |
| TigerStyle | or | 08:06 |
| TigerStyle | play DVD's and music CD's anymore | 08:06 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: I had a similar problem with my brother's laptop, but his BIOS ... which could NOT boot USB DVD ... could boot USB flash drive ... and Windows XP on it was hosed ... it now runs Ubuntu installed from flash | 08:06 |
| voss | You can always borrow someones external cd-rom | 08:06 |
| rogst | Thorn1: what issues do you have ? | 08:06 |
| TigerStyle | Skaperen, I am trying to boot from a flash drive | 08:07 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: sounds like you are hosed ... bad BIOS + no devices BIOS knows of = screwed | 08:07 |
| Thorn1 | rogst: it doesn't work. I did aplay -l and Ubuntu recognizes my hardware, but nothing plays | 08:07 |
| olimones | I am trying to open the file with a therminal | 08:07 |
| TigerStyle | the thing is, there is a USB flash option AND its placed to boot before internal HDD | 08:07 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: does it let you put USB flash drive in a boot order list? | 08:07 |
| olimones | and see what happends | 08:07 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: oh ... so it thinks it can boot USB flash ... and just fails? | 08:08 |
| voss | tiger, what are you boot options in bios with the flash drive attached? | 08:08 |
| TigerStyle | it just boots into windows | 08:08 |
| rogst | Thorn1: has it not worked ever or does it work first and then after a while stop ? | 08:08 |
| balleyne | how can I figure out what version of Qt I have installed? | 08:08 |
| Thorn1 | rogst: It doesn't work. It works on my Windows rig, so I know there is no hardware issues | 08:08 |
| TigerStyle | flash, floppy, internal optical, internal HDD, network | 08:08 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: disable the HDD altogether frm the boot list (boot it back later) | 08:08 |
| nomad77 | /cl | 08:09 |
| rogst | Thorn1: okay, are you using pulseaudio ? | 08:09 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: if it fails the first device it is falling back to the 2nd device (windows) | 08:09 |
| Ali_nz | do ntfs volumes not auto mount in ubuntu> | 08:09 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: so maybe the problem is no boot record, or broken boot record, on flash device | 08:09 |
| TigerStyle | I used unetbootin | 08:09 |
| voss | tiger, what are you using to make your usb bootable | 08:09 |
| Thorn1 | rogst: according to Sound Preferences program, I'm using ALSA | 08:09 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: and I've known of many cases of unetbooting failing | 08:10 |
| TigerStyle | lol | 08:10 |
| losher | TigerStyle: There's HOWTO: Install Ubuntu Linux without burning a cd http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=28948 | 08:10 |
| voss | tiger, what image are you using with unetbootin | 08:10 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: try reformatting the flash and re-record with unetbootin | 08:10 |
| TigerStyle | voss, ubuntu server | 08:10 |
| rogst | Thorn1: ok, I usually experience problems with my audio when using pulseaudio which is default in ubuntu, so I like to disable pulseaudio and only use ALSA | 08:10 |
| olimones | afv: it seems that i have to install install "nautilus-open-terminal" from the Synaptic Package Manager)... first | 08:11 |
| afv | hmm.. you can go from the terminal | 08:11 |
| Thorn1 | ROGST:How can I know I'm not using it for you sure? | 08:11 |
| ricardo_ | im gonna sleep, thanks to all, byee | 08:11 |
| rogst | Thorn1: if you run ps aux | grep pulseaudio do you see if pulseaudio is running ? | 08:11 |
| afv | if you can navigate through folders.. (cd /home/olimones/Desktop/etc..) | 08:12 |
| TigerStyle | Thornl, have u tried running alsamixer and turning everything to full? | 08:12 |
| afv | ricardo_, pt? | 08:12 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: if that fails, and if you can install a windows program to do the same as "dd" (there are a couple such programs around as described on how to put UNR on flash) ... I can make an ISO you can dd to the flash | 08:12 |
| ricardo_ | afv, what? | 08:12 |
| Thorn1 | rogst: Well, stuff came up so I assume its running | 08:12 |
| afv | ricardo_, you have a portuguese name :p | 08:12 |
| TigerStyle | Skaperen, whats "dd"? lol | 08:12 |
| olimones | i didn't read that option... i'll do that | 08:13 |
| ricardo_ | afv, spanish name too | 08:13 |
| Skaperen | dd = raw sector copying | 08:13 |
| ricardo_ | im from Chile | 08:13 |
| afv | right ;) | 08:13 |
| afv | olimones, it's not written there :p | 08:13 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: you want the server edition? I've only made these special images for desktop edition, but I can make for server | 08:13 |
| TigerStyle | I want a CLI install :( | 08:13 |
| rogst | Thorn1: I need to go.. but I you can read on my wiki where I have put together a guide on how to disable pulseaudio.. try that and se if it works here is the address http://rogst.homeip.net/wiki/index.php/Disable_PulseAudio_in_Ubuntu_9.04 | 08:14 |
| TigerStyle | its becoming a pain | 08:14 |
| Thorn1 | rogst: thanks | 08:14 |
| TigerStyle | when I did run ubuntu mini.iso | 08:14 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: a CLI install from Ubuntu? | 08:14 |
| TigerStyle | it couldnt connect wirelessly to my router | 08:14 |
| gnubie | Thorn1; http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sound-solutions-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html working though this worked for me | 08:14 |
| TigerStyle | because I couldnt use iwconfig for some stupid reason | 08:14 |
| afv | olimones, you just have to go to the folder you extracted, do "./configure --enable-dynamic-minors" and the following instructions from the page | 08:14 |
| olimones | the commandas i saw are the next step i guess then | 08:15 |
| ricardo_ | TigerStyle, try ubuntu alternate | 08:15 |
| TigerStyle | Skaperen, going to restart and see what happens | 08:15 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: g/l | 08:15 |
| TigerStyle | ricardo_, I have....... | 08:15 |
| olimones | ok | 08:16 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 08:17 |
| ricardo_ | ok see you, bye | 08:17 |
| afv | c ya | 08:17 |
| silv3r_m00n | after a few updates from synaptic ...my gnome desktop doesn't come ...the panels come though | 08:17 |
| silv3r_m00n | any ideas ? | 08:17 |
| TigerStyle | he | 08:19 |
| TigerStyle | still failed.... | 08:19 |
| TigerStyle | must be something wrong with unetbootin | 08:19 |
| TigerStyle | hello? | 08:22 |
| BitWraith | I updated the machine and now I cannot use bluetooth. I am apparently not the only ubuntu user effected by this issue. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-bluetooth/2009-February/003665.html How would I go about reinstalling the older version of my bluetooth stack? | 08:22 |

| Ali_nz | can you format a disk for ntfs in ubuntu> | 08:23 |
| howie | what kinda of progams are there for remote desktop in ubuntu? | 08:23 |
| grawity | Ali_nz: yes, but you probably will need ntfsutils (or something similar) | 08:23 |
| BitWraith | root: if you're going to IRC as root, at least change your name so it takes a bit longer for you to get hacked. :-P | 08:23 |
| Ali_nz | grawity: ahhh | 08:23 |
| Ali_nz | k | 08:23 |
| grawity | howie: VNC, RDP (Remote Desktop), and X over SSH (this one is probably not what you want). | 08:24 |
| afv | hi TigerStyle | 08:24 |
| TigerStyle | hi lol | 08:24 |
| afv | ops, you've been here before | 08:24 |
| afv | thought you entered now.. :p | 08:24 |
| howie | grawity: vnc works in linux? | 08:24 |
| TigerStyle | yes | 08:24 |
| TigerStyle | it does | 08:24 |
| grawity | howie: of course it does. | 08:24 |
| howie | awesome | 08:24 |
| bdjgtasha | I've installed nmap - but I notice using smb-enum-shares script I get an access denied error and it can't enum all shares. Using the same version of nmap on a leopard box I can see all of the shares. Any thoughts? | 08:24 |
| howie | lol its opensouce..... | 08:24 |
| TigerStyle | thats a window manager | 08:24 |
| howie | drr | 08:25 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: are you only able to use Windows to create the flash device? | 08:25 |
| olimones | afv: should i write model=hp-dv5 as it says? or should I write dv7 (my model) | 08:25 |
| grawity | howie: are you connecting *from* Linux, or *to* Linux? | 08:25 |
| grawity | TigerStyle: no, vnc is not a WM. | 08:25 |
| TigerStyle | awesome is | 08:25 |
| TigerStyle | :P | 08:25 |
| grawity | ah. | 08:25 |
| howie | from windows to linux desktop for linux to linux i use ssh | 08:25 |
| quentusrex | Can someone help me with an issue I'm having with openssl and gnutls | 08:25 |
| afv | olimones, try dv5 | 08:25 |
| TigerStyle | Skaperen, i can boot into a xubuntu live cd environment (but cant install that either | 08:25 |
| TigerStyle | ) | 08:26 |
| painted | sdfwe | 08:26 |
| painted | lotta people here | 08:26 |
| quentusrex | I have generated multiple CA's and multiple keys with TinyCA2 and openssl but openldap which is using gnutls, can't handle the CA certs nor the keys... | 08:26 |
| grawity | howie: then try VNC first. (there is a Remote Desktop server too) | 08:26 |
| grawity | painted: yeah, it's a big channel. Do you have a question? | 08:26 |
| painted | yeah | 08:27 |
| painted | i love ubuntu, but v sync doesn't work very well | 08:27 |
| howie | grawity: vnc wouldnt happen to be in the package manager? | 08:27 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: the xubuntu boots, but ubuntu and kubuntu do not? | 08:27 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: which OS are you using to record the bootable flash device? | 08:28 |
| TigerStyle | i can get anything to boot if I use unetbootin to install to my HDD instead of my USB | 08:28 |
| grawity | howie: yeah, apt-cache search vnc -- I think GNOME uses 'vino' by default. | 08:28 |
| TigerStyle | but then I cant install anything | 08:28 |
| howie | grawity: sweet got it thank you | 08:28 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: I need to know the OS in order to tell you what to try next | 08:28 |
| TigerStyle | windows XP SP3 | 08:28 |
| BitWraith | TigerStyle: obviously that's because you're installing the equivalent of a livecd | 08:29 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: see this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR/Installation/Easy ... scroll down to "from Windows Command Prompt using flashnul" ... get the flashnul program | 08:29 |
| BitWraith | I used wubi on this box and it worked great, I totally recommend it :-) | 08:29 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: then download this image: http://slashusr.net/ubuntu/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso.img | 08:30 |
| TigerStyle | Skaperen, can I use server? | 08:30 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: follow the instructions on that page, but using the image I pointed to instead of UNR | 08:30 |
| phpgunner | I have a 8200m g video card and have used the nvidia 180.44 driver version. However, it wont let me use like the appearance and display settings of ubuntu, just the nvidia panel, why? | 08:30 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: I'd have to make a server version of that ... will be a little while to upload it | 08:31 |
| TigerStyle | Skaperen, tell me how to do it | 08:31 |
| TigerStyle | will save both of us loads of time | 08:31 |
| TigerStyle | if I can do it within windows | 08:31 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: building it now | 08:32 |
| TigerStyle | lol | 08:32 |
| TigerStyle | thanks | 08:32 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 08:32 |
| TigerStyle | hi | 08:32 |
| silv3r_m00n | there are no icons on my gnome desktop | 08:32 |
| howie | grawity: i see the rdv but i dont see the server.. | 08:32 |
| silv3r_m00n | I did a few updates from synaptic and this issue has come up | 08:32 |
| jcadam | Hello. I lost my mouse receiver when I connect it to USB downstream. Would you please help me? | 08:33 |
| grawity | howie: huh? | 08:33 |
| TigerStyle | silv3r_m00n, start terminal and type nautilus and press enter | 08:33 |
| grawity | TigerStyle: Alt-F2 would be better for GUI programs. | 08:33 |
| silv3r_m00n | TigerStyle: a nautilus comes up but like a hanged window... all white | 08:33 |
| silv3r_m00n | and hard disk keeps working | 08:33 |
| howie | grawity: i installed vnc and i dont know how to launch the vnc server | 08:33 |
| afv | silv3r_m00n, do you use avant window navigator? | 08:33 |
| silv3r_m00n | I checked using top command and nautilus consumes most of the cpu | 08:33 |
| silv3r_m00n | afv: no | 08:33 |
| afv | silv3r_m00n, try a 'killall nautilus' | 08:34 |
| silv3r_m00n | more nautlius come up automatically | 08:34 |
| cattellar | is ubuntu like debian testing? | 08:34 |
| grawity | howie: what package did you install? | 08:34 |
| TigerStyle | cattellar, no | 08:34 |
| afv | silv3r_m00n, are you using karmic? | 08:34 |
| TigerStyle | cattelar, think Ubuntu as something seperate from Ubuntu | 08:34 |
| TigerStyle | i mean Debian | 08:34 |
| TigerStyle | ol | 08:34 |
| unop | TigerStyle, eh? | 08:34 |
| cattellar | ah | 08:34 |
| silv3r_m00n | afv: 8.04 | 08:34 |
| silv3r_m00n | hardy | 08:34 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: server-i386 right? | 08:35 |
| cattellar | TigerStyle, which do you think is more stable? | 08:35 |
| TigerStyle | yes | 08:35 |
| grawity | cattellar: Both. | 08:35 |
| TigerStyle | they are both stable | 08:35 |
| === hackoo is now known as unixguru | ||
| unop | cattellar, every six months or so there is a merge between ubuntu and debian testing .. so it is in a way | 08:35 |
| * Skaperen will make the amd64 one later then | 08:35 | |
| silv3r_m00n | afv: this issue has come up after I applied some updates from synaptic | 08:35 |
| silv3r_m00n | now what do I do ? | 08:35 |
| unop | cattellar, define stable. | 08:35 |
| TigerStyle | chuck gnome out the window and use a REAL window manager :P | 08:35 |
| afv | hmm.. can you use the menu, etc? is just nautilus that is broken? | 08:36 |
| silv3r_m00n | moreover gnome loading has become very slow after that | 08:36 |
| howie | grawity: vnc4serer, xvnc4viewer, vnc4-common | 08:36 |
| grawity | TigerStyle: Why? GNOME is nice. | 08:36 |
| cattellar | unop, no apps crash, no packages broken, it runs smoothly 24/7 | 08:36 |
| === unixguru is now known as hackoo | ||
| grawity | howie: hm, try installing vino instead :/ | 08:36 |
| silv3r_m00n | any ideas ? | 08:36 |
| grawity | cattellar: Both, then. | 08:36 |
| unop | cattellar, I'd be inclined to say debian is more stable (for that definition of stable) | 08:36 |
| afv | silv3r_m00n, can you use synaptic? | 08:36 |
| TigerStyle | cattellar, for max stability, install cli and a basic DE or window manager | 08:37 |
| silv3r_m00n | yes | 08:37 |
| Geoffrey2 | can anyone explain how one actually goes about installing ff 3.5, the current install method is pretty pathetic...... | 08:37 |
| silv3r_m00n | me on kde now | 08:37 |
| howie | grawity: i just donno how to start it... didnt show up in aplications | 08:37 |
| grawity | howie: Servers usually start automatically. | 08:37 |
| cattellar | TigerStyle, im running openbox right now and im actually getting a lot of crashes and bugs | 08:37 |
| redsoxking | has anyone heard of a program called bottler? u can download movies | 08:37 |
| TigerStyle | !ff35 > Geoffrey2 | 08:37 |
| ubottu | Geoffrey2, please see my private message | 08:37 |
| silv3r_m00n | afv: what do I do in there ? | 08:37 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: building checksums now, will start uploading shortly | 08:37 |
| howie | grawity: ah that might be it | 08:37 |
| afv | silv3r_m00n, hmm.. File > History. (does that exist in 8.04? lol) | 08:37 |
| TigerStyle | ok thanks Skaperen | 08:38 |
| TigerStyle | u could have told me what to do.... | 08:38 |
| silv3r_m00n | yes | 08:38 |
| TigerStyle | I wudda learned something | 08:38 |
| afv | silv3r_m00n, can you see the packages? you may try to downgrade someones.. :\ | 08:38 |
| cattellar | what doesnt make sense about ubuntu, is that you build your system and make it perfect, then after 6 months you have to start over again, because making the upgrade is not recommended | 08:39 |
| afv | how much of them did you update before that started? | 08:39 |
| whileimhere | I am re-partitioning my 40 gig HD. I have a gig of ram with an older celeron. I was wonder how much swap I need AND how much room for the root partition is recomended. | 08:39 |
| Geoffrey2 | TigerStyle, I did install the Firefox 3.5 package, which proceeded to insist on installing ff 3.0 at the same time, and now clicking on the start menu item loads up firefox 3.0.11 | 08:39 |
| olimones | afv: could you give the the web page again? when i rebooted i lost it and don't know what's next | 08:39 |
| Slart | cattellar: who says upgrades are not recommended? | 08:39 |
| afv | olimones, yes: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7299632&postcount=60 | 08:39 |
| cattellar | Slart, the internetz | 08:39 |
| olimones | thanks | 08:39 |
| afv | olimones, but there's no next.. it should work now :\ | 08:39 |
| silv3r_m00n | afv: that won't be possible... I have been doing many many upgrades... and since I mostly use kde I don't know after which update did gnome become like this | 08:39 |
| afv | silv3r_m00n, ah i see.. | 08:40 |
| unop | cattellar, I think you've been reading some nonsense then :) | 08:40 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: uploading now | 08:40 |
| afv | i thought it was recent | 08:40 |
| TigerStyle | !ff35 > TigerStyle | 08:40 |
| ubottu | TigerStyle, please see my private message | 08:40 |
| silv3r_m00n | now what | 08:40 |
| cattellar | you all distupgrade with no problems? | 08:40 |
| Thorn1 | My audio isn't working, can anyone help me? | 08:40 |
| silv3r_m00n | I don't find any more gnome- packages remaining to be updates | 08:40 |
| TigerStyle | Geoffrey2, it said it would be called Shiretoko | 08:40 |
| silv3r_m00n | updated* | 08:40 |
| Slart | cattellar: bah.. don't listen to the internetz... upgrades were finicky in version 7 or so... these days I don't think it's a problem.. I haven't had any at least | 08:40 |
| Thorn1 | Anybody? Audio doesn't work, come on here.... | 08:40 |
| Skaperen | oooh ... 31.87MB/s upload speed | 08:40 |
| unop | cattellar, well, i'm not going to say a dist-upgrade is flawless, sure there are teething problems .. but they're usually quite insignificant | 08:40 |
| BitWraith | cattellar: updates are recommended for a reason... they do cause issues every now and then but | 08:40 |
| Geoffrey2 | TigerStyle, nope, no such listing.... | 08:40 |
| afv | silv3r_m00n, hmm.. maybe you can try killing some thinks to see if it comes normal? :\ | 08:40 |
| BitWraith | oops, wrong button] | 08:41 |
| TigerStyle | Thornl, type alsamixer in ternminal and put all bars at full | 08:41 |
| silv3r_m00n | hmm | 08:41 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: http://slashusr.net/ubuntu/ubuntu-9.04-server-i386.iso.img | 08:41 |
| silv3r_m00n | let me try that | 08:41 |
| BitWraith | tiny netbook keyboard, pardon me X-D | 08:41 |
| afv | !ff35 afv | 08:41 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ff35 afv | 08:41 |
| afv | !ff35 > afv | 08:41 |
| ubottu | afv, please see my private message | 08:41 |
| Geoffrey2 | TigerStyle, last time I installed it, I had to go and manually move files around and create symlinks so ubuntu would even admit it was there | 08:41 |
| Thorn1 | TigerStyle: They're already up | 08:41 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: remember, use the special flashnul instructions to record that image onto flash media | 08:41 |
| fantomas | Hi | 08:41 |
| fantomas | Does anyone use aswesome? | 08:42 |
| fantomas | awesome | 08:42 |
| TigerStyle | wow u have quick upload speeds ol | 08:42 |
| sn00zer | fantomas: I have, but very little | 08:42 |
| losher | whileimhere: 10G for root (7G at a pinch), between 1 & 2G for swap, the rest for /home | 08:42 |
| Thorn1 | Can somebody help me with my audio issues | 08:42 |
| imgoofygoober | I just installed ubuntu on my computer yeah now i'm confused as to what to do next | 08:42 |
| octane_8 | i don't know but i'm pretty awesome | 08:42 |
| TigerStyle | Geoffrey2 press F2 and type firefox-3.5 | 08:42 |
| TigerStyle | and press enter | 08:42 |
| piscooo | What cli-application can you recommend to resize multiple images? (.jpg) | 08:42 |
| fantomas | sn00zer: are you using it as wm for gnome, or standalone? | 08:42 |
| olimones | afv: thanks for your help. it didn't work. I'll do some research tomorrow morning. | 08:42 |
| Geoffrey2 | Then today I start up and it's mysteriously disappeared, and when I try to install it again, it installs ff 3.0 at the same time, and 3.0 is the only thing available from the start menu | 08:42 |
| afv | olimones, just one more thing.. | 08:42 |
| sn00zer | fantomas: stand alone | 08:42 |
| olimones | yes | 08:42 |
| unop | piscooo, resize or convert from the imagemagick package | 08:42 |
| Thorn1 | Can somebody help me with my audio problems? | 08:43 |
| TigerStyle | Skaperen, U WERE UPLOADING IN MB's, HOLY poo? | 08:43 |
| nightshade | i'm having trouble getting ubuntu to detect my wireless chipset if someone can lend a hend | 08:43 |
| nightshade | hand even | 08:43 |
| fantomas | sn00zer: hm... I just try to understand what advantages of using awesome with Gnome? :) Do I really need it | 08:43 |
| nightshade | i've been trying all day | 08:44 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: with rsync ... | 08:44 |
| Skaperen | ubuntu-9.04-server-i386.iso.img 614031360 100% 31.87MB/s 0:00:18 (xfer#4, to-check=1/27) | 08:44 |
| sn00zer | I don't think so, but then again I'm not really a fan of gnome, I use old school xfce, lxde, or flux/openbox myself | 08:44 |
| whileimhere | Losher: does Ubuntu really take up that much space? | 08:44 |
| TigerStyle | nightshade, which one is it? | 08:44 |
| nightshade | works with my laptop but not on my desktop pc | 08:44 |
| nightshade | its an atheros | 08:44 |
| TigerStyle | exact model? | 08:44 |
| nightshade | o | 08:44 |
| nightshade | TG585 | 08:45 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: took longer to rebuild the checksums than to upload ... no one around here using the net right now | 08:45 |
| Geoffrey2 | TigerStyle, ok, thanks, it's running now | 08:45 |
| sn00zer | fantomas: * old school kde as in 3.5, not sure what happened there, hit the keys but it didn't make it to the screen. | 08:45 |
| afv | olimones, sorry, 1 sec.. i'm not founding it! just red it some seconds ago but i can't find it.. here in the chat.. | 08:45 |
| TigerStyle | nightshade, are u sure? | 08:45 |
| olimones | ok | 08:45 |
| nightshade | yeah it's a wireless gateway | 08:45 |
| piscooo | unop: resize is not valid | 08:46 |
| nightshade | so i'm connecting through the nic | 08:46 |
| nightshade | it is definately atheros chipset | 08:46 |
| joplju | I just installed ubuntu and I'm needing help with a few things. Any one not busy willing to help? | 08:46 |
| afv | olimones, try just this: <TigerStyle> Thornl, type alsamixer in ternminal and put all bars at full | 08:46 |

| Thorn1 | Ugh. Can anyone help me fix my audio? | 08:46 |
| nightshade | Tigerstyle thatd be it | 08:47 |
| nightshade | wireless router | 08:47 |
| unop | piscooo, it's probably called 'convert' with the ubuntu package then | 08:47 |
| afv | Thorn1, what's the problem of your audio? | 08:47 |
| TigerStyle | nightshade, then I have no idea lol, sorry | 08:47 |
| whileimhere | I have a desktop PC without a wireless card. I also have a laptop with working wireless. If I hook them up via a D-Link 5 port switch will I be able to use the internet via the laptop from the desktop? | 08:47 |
| Skaperen | TigerStyle: if you have a way to do an MD5 checksum of that server image, it's bb97bcbb6945dd6582c048bb7f6eca52 | 08:47 |
| Thorn1 | afv: It doesn't work. aplay shows my hardware, but there is no sound. I adjusted the settings alsa to max, but still no sound | 08:48 |
| nightshade | using airmon-ng theres nothing, on the laptop i get ath0 and wifi0 | 08:48 |
| TigerStyle | Skaperen, im only on 6%, very slow server u have :P | 08:48 |
| nightshade | for the interfaces | 08:48 |

| TigerStyle | but if ur connecting to ur router via a ethernet cable, u dont need a wireless thingy majingy | 08:48 |
| TigerStyle | it shud configure itself | 08:49 |
| nightshade | i want to connect to a friends | 08:49 |
| Thorn1 | avf: Got any ideas? | 08:49 |
| TigerStyle | nightshade, uve lost me | 08:49 |
| afv | Thorn1, do a "cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 | grep codec" | 08:49 |
| nightshade | i'm trying to scan for other wireless networks | 08:49 |
| TigerStyle | using a desktop? | 08:50 |
| afv | and google for it.. you may find something | 08:50 |
| nightshade | a desktop pc as opposed to my laptop | 08:50 |
| Thorn1 | afv: nothing happens | 08:50 |
| losher | whileimhere: it depends how many packages you install. Currently my root partitions vary from 3G to 6G in use. For swap, you might look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq | 08:50 |
| TigerStyle | does this desktop have wireless? | 08:50 |
| afv | Thorn1, what does aplay -l say? | 08:50 |
| nightshade | it does now that i've plugged the router in. | 08:50 |
| vices | press the windows key+n to see something interesting | 08:51 |
| nightshade | what i'm saying and people can't seem to get passed it is i've connected to the router through the laptops nic and successfully scanned for other networks | 08:51 |
| nightshade | now i want to do the same with the desktop pc nic | 08:51 |
| nightshade | if that makes any sense | 08:52 |
| Thorn1 | afv: whats the command I say on irc to open that website to post terminal outputs | 08:52 |
| ikonia | Thorn1: pastbine.ubuntu.com | 08:52 |
| ikonia | oops | 08:52 |
| TigerStyle | nightshade, one wireless router cannot connect to another..... | 08:52 |
| ikonia | pastebin.ubuntu.com | 08:52 |
| afv | pastebin.com ? | 08:52 |
| afv | or that | 08:52 |
| nightshade | TigerStyle, thing is that on the desktop pc it can't even detect the router | 08:52 |
| Thorn1 | Oh yeah | 08:52 |
| Thorn1 | pastebin! | 08:52 |
| nightshade | so that would be a nice start, just detect the router | 08:53 |
| olimones | afv: i didn't work eather | 08:53 |
| nightshade | well no | 08:53 |
| nightshade | it has | 08:53 |

| olimones | yes | 08:53 |
| TigerStyle | nightshade, can u use the internet on the desktop right now or not? | 08:53 |
| Thorn1 | afv: http://pastebin.com/d16eeabc9 | 08:53 |

| nightshade | TigerStyle, i will try to put it across as straight as i can. I'm trying to use aircrack to scan for wireless networks, when i type airmon-ng or iwconfig i get no feedback from the wireless router | 08:57 |
| SNAX | im in the same boat with the wep key crackage... | 08:57 |
| SNAX | aircrack is a joke | 08:57 |
| nightshade | it should indicate Interface Chipset and Driver | 08:57 |
| SNAX | how can someone gather 413k packets in under 5 minutes | 08:57 |
| nightshade | which it does on the laptop, but not the desktop pc | 08:58 |
| x2 | sudo airodump-ng Interface | 08:58 |
| afv | Thorn1, try http://www.google.com/search?q=92HD75B3X5+"no+audio or http://www.google.com/search?q=92HD75B3X5+"no+sound | 08:58 |

| TigerStyle | listen to SNAX and x2 nightshade, I have no idea | 08:59 |
| SNAX | ... aircrack is a hoax... imo... but only because it ALWAYS seems to have SOME issue | 08:59 |
| nightshade | x2 it just says no interface specified | 08:59 |
| x2 | aircrack works fine | 08:59 |
| nightshade | no it does work, i had it running | 08:59 |
| SNAX | where did you have issues | 08:59 |
| x2 | works for me | 08:59 |
| nightshade | why it's an issue on my desktop pc is a damn annoying mystery | 08:59 |
| SNAX | what chipset do you have? | 09:00 |
| A4Tech | Hey all, who knows what you can edit the firmware in your phone to Ubuntu? | 09:00 |
| TigerStyle | because the laptop is using its own wireless card? | 09:00 |

| TigerStyle | i think it is nightshade | 09:04 |
| * nightshade facepalm | 09:04 | |
| A4Tech | ikonia I ask about whether there is in the Ubuntu program or utility such as windows to edit the firmware of your phone. | 09:04 |
| x2 | well type "sudo airodump-ng ath0" | 09:04 |
| nightshade | well thank you for your time anyway all | 09:04 |
| ikonia | A4Tech: ok - so you want to flash the firmware, not put ubuntu on your phone | 09:04 |
| TigerStyle | nightshade wait, we can check | 09:04 |
| nightshade | okay | 09:05 |
| ikonia | A4Tech: there are very few phone applications that will allow that on Linux, it very much depends on your phone make and model, but the short answer will be "probably not" | 09:05 |
| nightshade | x2 it says no such device | 09:05 |
| TigerStyle | do u know the ip adress and username and password for ur TG585 router? | 09:05 |
| BitWraith | which package do I need to downgrade to revert back to the jaunty kernel | 09:05 |
| pXd | A4tech. why not try your windows progz under wine... but not sure that will work with phones | 09:05 |
| A4Tech | ikonia ok, thx | 09:05 |
| nightshade | TigerStyle yes | 09:05 |
| TigerStyle | go on ur laptop and try using those details | 09:05 |

| jackbauer | Hello world. I caused an error on my server. Here's the shindig: i have ubuntu intrepid that had wordpress running on apache2. I installed ispcp but then I couldn't access phpmyadmin or my site. My solution was to configure /etc/apache2/sites-available/00_master.conf and /etc/apache2/ports.conf to serve ispcp on another port and an appropriate vhost on port 80. However, now php isn't working out of the site i set to port 80. | 09:09 |

| x2 | sn00zer you use xchat>? | 09:21 |

| mb_again | when you log in to a terminal and motd is active it gives you a little fortune cookie | 09:22 |
| sn00zer | x2: tagged? | 09:22 |
| x2 | lol | 09:22 |
| x2 | i like cookies | 09:22 |
| TigerStyle | chocolate chip ones | 09:22 |
| mb_again | used to be important for communicating whe all the users just had terminals | 09:22 |
| chrislees | Yeah I'm not worrying about the MOTD, I quite like the information it gives you when you log into a text terminal | 09:22 |
| mb_again | sad | 09:22 |
| sn00zer | mb_again: So if I disable MOTD, I won't get these in my syslog? | 09:23 |
| mb_again | sorry, what in syslog? | 09:23 |
| grawity | sn00zer: I don't think this is related to motd at all. | 09:24 |
| sn00zer | I also have --MARK-- in there every 30 minutes. | 09:24 |
| TigerStyle | or the #ubuntu channel :| | 09:24 |
| unwell_13 | what driver do I need for a blackberry 8100? | 09:24 |
| chrislees | sn00zer: if you disable MOTD you won't get any MOTD log entries. The log entries that you are complaining about, however, are unrelated to MOTD | 09:24 |
| chrislees | sn00zer: I believe --MARK-- is normal too, it indicates that the machine is up | 09:25 |
| x2 | unwell_13 rim software? | 09:25 |

| bazhang | !ot > TigerStyle | 09:25 |
| ubottu | TigerStyle, please see my private message | 09:25 |
| grawity | sn00zer: I think it just runs all the crontab scripts in /etc/cron.hourly, it's normal | 09:25 |
| TigerStyle | sorryyy | 09:25 |
| bucky | sn00zer: you also have that in cat /etc/crontab | 09:26 |
| mb_again | oh i see, you got crontab recording it ran once an hour, and you got the logger putting in marks to show that it is up. You may be able to turn off the logging for crontab on its config. You can tell syslog to junk the commands with its filter system instead. and the MARK s can be turned off in the loggin system conviguration | 09:26 |
| x2 | unwell_13 im to lazy to look but have you checked the forums? | 09:26 |
| grawity | sn00zer: You can make syslog write cron messages to another log. | 09:26 |
| sn00zer | grawity: But there aren't any crontabs to run | 09:26 |
| unwell_13 | x2: yes I have... | 09:26 |
| grawity | sn00zer: There might be, so it checks anyway. | 09:26 |
| bucky | sn00zer: and you want the MARK entries because if your logs get shorter it means you've been hacked | 09:26 |
| grawity | sn00zer: Just make syslog write it to another log file. | 09:26 |
| sn00zer | grawity: Ok, thanks, I'll look into that | 09:27 |
| bullgard4 | What device does /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c designate? My audio device is a Intel 82801 (ICH6 family). | 09:27 |
| bucky | sn00zer: what's the matter... running out of disk space ? | 09:27 |
| sn00zer | bucky: Whats to stop the attacker from editing the logs and adding/deleting their own --MARK-- messages? | 09:27 |
| x2 | unwell_13 are you trying to use it as a tethered modem? | 09:27 |

| mb_again | if you want safe logs and you dont trust the local system, you can remote syslog into another system you do trust. going in circles about whether some hacker faked the marks is fairly pointless. they could. none really would, they just wipe the log to empty. | 09:29 |

I would like it to boot up everytime without bothering me for a login/password. How do I get it to just boot up? Thanks! Reb, | 09:36 |
| sn00zer | bucky: no, at least I'm pretty sure I haven't been, but I saw all the cron logs and decided to investigate. I was saying theoretically if the attacker compromised my account then escalated to root. (in response to my account not having read/write permissions) | 09:37 |

| Rebeka | Yes, I've checked "Enable Automatic Login", and it still prompts a login | 09:44 |
| sn00zer | Out_Cold: If you have something mounted at /home, you can't mount your new disk at /home, it will not let you. First you'd have to unmount /home, in which case it would need to be on its own partition, or the OS would deny the unmount (I think) In any case, if something is there currently, you can't mount a new drive over it, if you unmount the current /home, it stays on its own disk area waiting to be mounted again. | 09:45 |

| mzz | sn00zer: hmm? sure you can, the thing mounted last will just hide the thing below it, if I'm not completely mistaken. Doublechecking... | 09:46 |
| sn00zer | Rebeka: The channel is kinda slow right now actually :) | 09:46 |
| bullgard4 | What device does /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c designate? My audio device is a Intel 82801 (ICH6 family). | 09:46 |
| Rebeka | I have, but there does not seem to be any help there for my problems, | 09:46 |
| mzz | sn00zer: just checked, the kernel lets you | 09:46 |
| sn00zer | mzz: Crazy... Well, I stand corrected | 09:46 |
| user-05 | booink | 09:47 |
| Out_Cold | sn00zer, sounds good | 09:47 |
| mzz | Out_Cold: the old /home is hidden and will reappear if you umount the new one | 09:47 |
| bucky | Rebeka: go to a linux users group meeting and they will fix it for you | 09:47 |
| kahn_ | hi | 09:47 |
| Out_Cold | yea mzz ty | 09:47 |
| mzz | sn00zer: it's really a special case of that mount points do not have to be empty (and whatever's there gets hidden behind the mounted drive) | 09:47 |
| newb2linux | hey guys .. | 09:47 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Slart, nope ive done this too many times to be dns problem, the box had different hosts in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts/ corrected it already (thats what happens when you format your server at 3am) | 09:47 |
| newb2linux | How can I have a program auto run when I turn on my computer? Ex XBMC | 09:48 |
| sn00zer | mzz: Hmm, seems like an interesting way to hide some files in plain sight | 09:48 |
| mzz | sn00zer: if anyone's actually looking they'd find them soon enough | 09:49 |
| mzz | sn00zer: (if I was looking I'd boot off something else and mount all your partitions separately, for example) | 09:49 |
| bucky | the FBI could find them | 09:49 |
| Rebeka | I have gone to System>Admin>Login Win>....But it does not fix the problem on this box... I really need this box to reboot without needing a login, because the programme I'm running for my thesis crashes linux all the time. Yes, it's programmed badly, but we have no cash to make it perfect. So I need ubuntu to reboot perfectly, and without questions, and the answers you've given me are not helping... | 09:49 |
| Slart | Pirate_Hunter: what does "cat /etc/resolv.conf" tell you? | 09:49 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Slart, but here is an honest question i installed 8.04 desktop however i have installed the server images without deleting the generic images. If I delete the generic images will the system update the server images? | 09:49 |
| mzz | sn00zer: also, you can play games with bindmounts to get at the hidden files without unmounting the thing on top | 09:50 |
| sn00zer | mzz: It still get a windows user :) | 09:50 |
| bucky | Rebeka: is the program that starts automatically one that you wrote? | 09:50 |
| sergiumihai | hi, anyone know, it is possible to install enlightenment DE on ubuntu with package manager | 09:50 |
| TigerStyle | no | 09:50 |
| sergiumihai | k | 09:51 |
| Slart | Pirate_Hunter: afaik yes | 09:51 |
| TigerStyle | unless u want e16 | 09:51 |
| bazhang | sergiumihai, sure it is | 09:51 |
| Rebeka | Naw, it was done by the hacks in CS | 09:51 |
| sn00zer | bucky: The feds would just confiscate your pc after a raid which destroyed your house, throw the pc in a warehouse for 4 months, plant some evidence and call it good | 09:51 |
| bazhang | TigerStyle, dont answer unless you know | 09:51 |
| bucky | Rebeka: does it have to start automaticall... can you just start it manually by hand after you log in? | 09:51 |
| sergiumihai | thanks. | 09:51 |
| Rebeka | (who are good folks, but we're all broke and underfunded these days) | 09:51 |
| TigerStyle | bazhang, thats adding unstable repos though...... | 09:51 |
| pitshke | list | 09:52 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Slart, that command just tells me that ive created a static ip through networkmanager (got lazy) yah thats what i wanted to know so the server images will be used that is great | 09:52 |
| marcus_aurelius | hello, does anyone know if i can burn lightscribe labels in brasero? | 09:52 |
| Rebeka | ...and it's a mishmash, I did the COBOL in it, but there's a tonne of crap in it, I just need to know how to make sure that UBUNTU always reboots without a prompt! | 09:53 |
| bazhang | TigerStyle, that is not correct. please stop | 09:53 |
| bucky | Rebeka: can you press the escape key in the three second grub gives you to enter the boot up menu and boot up in single user mode.. I think that will keep the program from starting then disable it somehow so you can boot up normally and sort this out | 09:53 |
| Rebeka | @baz - pardon? | 09:53 |
| bucky | Rebeka: boot into single user mode at the grub menu | 09:54 |
| Rebeka | ok, | 09:54 |
| Rebeka | and then...? | 09:54 |
| bucky | Rebeka: once you're in stop the program from starting at boot up | 09:55 |
| bucky | Rebeca did they put an init script in /etc/init.d ? | 09:55 |
| bucky | Rebeka: if so update-rc.d -f <bad_program-name> remove | 09:56 |
| Rebeka | @bucky...how would I check that on the ind. box? | 09:56 |
| LinksToAnything | cool | 09:56 |
| LinksToAnything | quit | 09:56 |
| m477 | what program to defragmentation do you recommend ? | 09:57 |
| bazhang | m477, none needed | 09:57 |
| Frogzoo | m477: ext doesn't need defragging | 09:57 |
| bucky | Rebeka: ls /etc/init.d | 09:57 |
| Rebeka | ...? | 09:57 |
| m477 | why ? | 09:57 |
| bucky | look for the program | 09:57 |
| Frogzoo | m477: just don't mess with the default free allocation | 09:57 |
| Rebeka | rad, cool, justa sec, | 09:57 |
| m477 | sounds cool | 09:58 |
| bucky | Rebeka: they may have it started with sessions tho | 09:58 |
| Rebeka | okie, cool, I think I just found the answer ;) | 09:58 |
| Rebeka | okie folks, 'yer rad, and never touch COBOL, it's the fucking devil! | 09:58 |
| Ali_nz | ok, one more time, for fun, how do I mount a ntfs drive with ntfs-3g? | 09:58 |
| Frogzoo | Rebeka: on gnome: system -> administration -> login -> security -> automatic login | 09:58 |
| bucky | Rebeka: call those hackkers at 3:00 AM | 09:58 |
| Rebeka | THE DEVIL | 09:58 |
| bazhang | Rebeka, watch the language | 09:58 |
| TigerStyle | bazhang, tone down the admin a bit | 09:59 |
| Frogzoo | bazhang: you can't be serious | 09:59 |
| Rebeka | heh, sorry, but it really is the devil, darn legacy code | 09:59 |

| marcus_aurelius | is there any application that will burn a lightscribe label to a disc? pls don't say k3b, i know it's a good program, but i'd like to avoid the kde overhead, since i'm running gnome | 10:00 |
| mzz | I'm hunting for a gtk-based music player that can give me just a filesystem tree without reading any tags. Pretty sure I saw one earlier but can't find it again. | 10:00 |
| TigerStyle | mzz, tried exaile? | 10:00 |
| Out_Cold | Ali_nz, mount /dev/sd** -t ntfs-3g /path/to/new -o force | 10:00 |
| mzz | TigerStyle: not recently, but I shall :) | 10:00 |
| TigerStyle | okie | 10:00 |
| mzz | TigerStyle: the thing is I have my mp3s behind a slowish sshfs link currently, so I need it to not read tags on things it's not currently playing. | 10:01 |
| Rebeka | okie, cool, yeah, so I think I've seen a way to get around the basic run-around on that box, it will be ugly, bit it'll work. rock on folks | 10:01 |
| TigerStyle | mzz, there is one really basic player | 10:01 |
| TigerStyle | cant remember the name at all | 10:01 |
| Out_Cold | aplay | 10:02 |
| Ali_nz | Out_Cold: ok - no errors came up - how to test it worked? | 10:02 |
| mzz | TigerStyle: yeah, same here. Heh, perhaps I should just throw something together myself, or use the cli. | 10:02 |
| Out_Cold | Ali_nz, cd /place/to/new | 10:02 |
| Ali_nz | yes, but the drive is empty anyway.... | 10:02 |
| TigerStyle | mzz, xmms | 10:02 |

| mzz | TigerStyle: no thanks | 10:03 |
| TigerStyle | lol why? | 10:03 |
| TigerStyle | its quite good | 10:03 |
| mzz | TigerStyle: don't like that style of ui | 10:03 |
| bazhang | mzz, xmms no longer exists, the replacement is audacious | 10:03 |

| Out_Cold | Ali_nz, type mount | 10:04 |
| toomai | milo_: I might be very well mistaken, but is a facebook film not youtube in the end? and does youtube not have a beta website which requires new flash? | 10:04 |
| kizza | what apps are the best on ubuntu | 10:04 |
| Ali_nz | yeah its in the list | 10:04 |
| Out_Cold | kizza, all of them | 10:05 |
| TigerStyle | I know its not being developed, its still nice for crappy pc's | 10:05 |

| Rebeka | ok, sorry folks ;) | 10:06 |
| Out_Cold | well good luck.. | 10:06 |
| Ali_nz | in the gui, file explorer is their a way to include file sizes | 10:06 |

| kizza | who here plays diablo 2 lol | 10:07 |
| kizza | on ubuntu | 10:07 |
| mzz | Ali_nz: you mean the usual gnome nautilus one? | 10:07 |
| Rebeka | ok,I figured a workaround, but I'm not that smart, so I need some more help... | 10:07 |
| toomai | milo_: yes? so you can play the very same movie on youtube? | 10:07 |
| Ali_nz | yer think that what it caled | 10:07 |
| mzz | Ali_nz: switching to list view is one way | 10:07 |
| milo_ | toomai: yes | 10:07 |

| THB | hi I need some help with my ubuntu laptop | 10:08 |
| THB | I need to run gparted on this but it wont let me install it | 10:09 |
| toomai | THB: what is the error message when you try to install it | 10:09 |
| zetheroo1 | I am just wondering if when in Appearance prefs I have Desktop Effects turned to "none" if that is actually switching off the display adapter from using its own proccessing power? | 10:09 |
| milo_ | toomai: thanks anyway. Now i know that it's not fcbk's prblm. thks dude | 10:09 |
| bucky | THB: it's not already installed? | 10:09 |
| toomai | milo_: not a problem | 10:09 |
| zetheroo1 | just that on "none" it seems to be more sluggish than when i have it on "Normal" | 10:09 |
| THB | I think because I havent used ti in so long the repositories I used to connect to dont exist anymore | 10:09 |
| THB | one moment guys | 10:09 |
| mzz | zetheroo1: on "none" it runs no compositing manager. I've had that actually be slower due to driver oddities a while ago. | 10:09 |
| Rebeka | but when the box boots, it pops up a box which says "Enter password for default ..." what's up wih that? I though I got it to just boot? | 10:10 |
| chrislees | zetherool: No, it just turns off the desktop effects. It might feel more sluggish due to no acceleration of window movements | 10:10 |
| mzz | zetheroo1: as an experiment you could try installing and running xcompmgr (a very basic compositing manager) by hand | 10:10 |
| mzz | zetheroo1: if that speeds things up you hit a similar driver oddity | 10:10 |
| zetheroo1 | mzz: what will I be able to do with that?.... | 10:10 |
| THB | @toomai: http://pastebin.com/d568d90fb | 10:11 |
| mzz | zetheroo1: it's a very basic compositing manager. If running that by hand (with desktop effects set to "none") makes things go faster you hit a similar driver oddity (where running any compositing manager helps) | 10:11 |
| bucky | Rebeka: linux generally requires a passwd... it's because of all those stupid people who invented unix 40 years ago | 10:11 |
| mzz | zetheroo1: that's definitely not supposed to be the case though. | 10:11 |
| Yubo | I want to have a server running a few script on serveral times, like 08:00, 12:00, 18:00 and so on, but be in idle/suspend between those times. Idon't want the server to be up and running all the time. Is there a way to achieve this? | 10:11 |
| THB | @ bucky: I dont think it is installed because I cannot run it | 10:11 |
| zetheroo1 | mzz: oh I see | 10:11 |
| mzz | bucky: err? you can turn them off just fine (in general, haven't tried specifically in ubuntu recently) | 10:12 |
| bucky | THB is this a jaunty install disc? | 10:12 |
| banditpower | Hello world. I caused an error on my server. Here's the shindig: i have ubuntu intrepid that had wordpress running on apache2. I installed ispcp but then I couldn't access phpmyadmin or my site. My solution was to configure /etc/apache2/sites-available/00_master.conf and /etc/apache2/ports.conf to serve ispcp on another port and an appropriate vhost on port 80. However, now php isn't working out of the site i set to port 8 | 10:12 |
| Rebeka | yeah, I know that, but I need it to run without one! It's just sitting there, and I need it to work, | 10:12 |
| toomai | THB: that sounds like a network problem rather than an application problem | 10:12 |
| Yubo | How can I have a Ubuntu Server boot/resume on some times like 08:00 and 12:00 and then run a couple of scripts, then shut down? | 10:12 |
| mzz | Rebeka: is this thing running a gui? gdm has an "autologon" feature you may be interested in. | 10:12 |
| Rebeka | GDM? | 10:12 |
| toomai | THB: can you install something else to verify...try installing gftp (if you havent installed that one yet) | 10:12 |
| THB | I already have ubuntu on an old laptop that oesnt get much use | 10:13 |
| THB | k toomai will try now | 10:13 |
| mzz | Rebeka: is it running the usual ubuntu gnome desktop? | 10:13 |
| bucky | mzz: RECAP: it won't let it boot up into gnome because it's choking on some auto start program for class | 10:13 |
| Rebeka | Look, I need ubuntu to just open and run, without a PW, without any BS, just run, and just work. Can it do it? | 10:13 |
| Out_Cold | Yubo, wake on ethernet? | 10:13 |
| mzz | Rebeka: that depends on what it's currently getting stuck on. | 10:13 |
| THB | same thing toomai it complains it cant connect to the repositories | 10:13 |
| === test is now known as Guest64696 | ||

| mzz | Rebeka: for example you may simply be looking for system -> administration -> login window -> security -> enable automatic login | 10:14 |
| toomai | THB: ah, so you have troubles much likely with your /etc/apt/sources.list | 10:14 |

| toomai | THB: it is not a problem with gparted itself...maybe that repository does not exist anmyore | 10:14 |
| surf | hi can some1 help me with gparted live? | 10:14 |
| Rebeka | well, I just need it to open and run, with no problems, with no PW, just open and start. It's running on out lab's Dell Vostro, which normally runs Linux with 0 problems | 10:14 |
| Yubo | toomai: Or do I have to use WOL? | 10:14 |
| mzz | Rebeka: clarify, please. Exactly what is it getting stuck on, and how far along the boot process does it get? | 10:14 |
| THB | toomai: I dont really remember how to change them and where I should point to now | 10:14 |
| surf | I boot from cd and then it sees only unallocated space | 10:14 |
| om26er1 | is there a utility like device manager | 10:15 |
| surf | how can I edit the partition tables? | 10:15 |
| grawity | surf: gparted | 10:15 |
| toomai | Yubo: well, I can not say for sure...it depends on the BIOS...I can remember on certain BIOS you had the choice...otherwise you might want to use WOL...or...suspend...and let the server wake up itself...but I have no experience in that | 10:15 |
| surf | I know but how? | 10:15 |
| toomai | THB: hmm...feisty....was that 7.04? | 10:15 |
| Rebeka | Yarg, if our crap win box can start and run, and Ubuntu can't, I'm not sold, this is garbage, | 10:15 |
| surf | gravity: I booted from gparted live and there´s only unallocated space | 10:15 |
| surf | how can I edit it? | 10:16 |
| ruud | Hello everyone | 10:16 |
| ruud | gparted won't start | 10:16 |
| bucky | Rebeka: if you can't remember a passwd then you need to go back to windows | 10:16 |
| ruud | it says "hal-lock: symbol lookup error: hal-lock: undefined symbol: libhal_acquire_global_interface_lock" | 10:16 |
| bucky | and be an MCSE | 10:16 |
| mzz | Rebeka: the entire os is open source. If you can figure out what's asking questions you can almost always hack it up to not do so, even if there's no "normal" way to make it not ask :) you just need to figure out what's asking questions | 10:16 |
| THB | @toomai: yes 7.04 | 10:16 |
| grawity | surf: um, create partitions? | 10:16 |
| Rebeka | Har. Yeah, that's right, if Linux can't meet the needs of a modern lab, then obviously I'm the problem. | 10:17 |
| mzz | Rebeka: so again: *what* is the question/prompt you're trying to bypass? | 10:17 |
| bucky | unix take a password.. the whole security model is built around this fact | 10:17 |
| toomai | THB: well well well...:)...it might very like be that those repos where deleted. 7.04 is not supported anymore | 10:17 |
| grawity | Rebeka: One question. What IS your problem? | 10:17 |
| ruud | I tried reinstalling hal , libhal and gparted | 10:17 |
| ruud | doesn't work | 10:17 |
| toomai | THB: you might need to upgrade (new install or actually upgrade= | 10:17 |
| bucky | Rebeka: what's your GD password? | 10:17 |
| THB | @toomai: I see | 10:17 |
| Rebeka | I just need Ubuntu to open without any prompts, with no login prompts, with nothing, just to start: | 10:17 |
| ruud | everything is up-to-date | 10:18 |
| THB | @toomai: well I cannot upgrade because it has a different error | 10:18 |
| THB | one moment | 10:18 |
| om26er1 | plz tell me is there any device manager like utility for ubuntu | 10:18 |
| bucky | Rebeka: your auto start program choked it | 10:18 |
| nsadmin | Rebeka: define "open" | 10:18 |
| mzz | Rebeka: there is no single switch for "do not prompt me for anything at all" that I know of, but if you ask about *specific* prompts I may well be able to disable them. | 10:18 |
| toomai | THB: 7.04 is only supported 18 months....if I recall correctly (I am not sure) I have seen a mail saying that thing is out of support and therefore the repos are moved | 10:18 |
| Rebeka | Yeah, it's the latest U. distro, with all of the upgrades, | 10:18 |
| Ali_nz | hmm, i would have thought I could watch the file size in nautilus explorer get bigger but it aint | 10:18 |
| ruud | anyone? | 10:18 |
| grawity | Rebeka: Where exactly does it stop? | 10:18 |
| Out_Cold | nsadmin, she wants auto-login | 10:18 |
| Yubo | toomai: Ok, thank you very much anyway. | 10:18 |
| toomai | THB: hmmm....do you have your /home on a seperate partition? | 10:18 |
| bucky | She can't log into gnome long enough to get to the Admin menu and check the auto login box | 10:19 |
| THB | @toomai: when I try to update to 7.10 it says the following: Could not find the release notes, the server may be overloaded | 10:19 |
| bucky | She forgot her password and now it's all linux's fault | 10:19 |
| Rebeka | It stops after it bypasses login, and then prompts for "Enter Password for Default..." | 10:19 |
| mzz | Rebeka: so far all I can give you is system -> administration -> login window -> security -> enable automatic login. If that doesn't disable the prompt you want disabled: what prompt is that? | 10:19 |
| ruud | how can I check what the device names of my partitions are? | 10:19 |

| bullgard4 | What device does /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c designate? My audio device is an Intel 82801 (ICH6 family). | 10:19 |
| Out_Cold | Rebeka, the default keyring? | 10:20 |
| [R] | bullgard4: an alsa pcm device | 10:20 |
| THB | @ toomai: no my home dir is not on a seperate partition, but there is nothing really important on this laptop, I could wipe it and start over | 10:20 |
| bucky | Windows doesn't need a password... it works | 10:20 |
| [R] | bullgard4: with alsa you don't care ab out the /dev devices | 10:20 |
| toomai | THB: hmmmm....well....I personally would download the iso from either 8.04 or 9.04 and install it from scratch (if my /home is on a separate partition)...but I can not make that call for ypu | 10:20 |
| toomai | you* | 10:20 |
| mzz | ruud: can't be done 100% reliably without actually booting into grub | 10:20 |
| grawity | Auto-login cannot unlock the keyring automatically. It's impossible unless you remove the keyring's password. | 10:20 |
| grawity | And to do that, use Seahorse. | 10:20 |
| nsadmin | how is windows relevent in this situation? | 10:20 |
| ruud | then how can I check it in grub? | 10:21 |
| nsadmin | nevermind, don't answer that | 10:21 |
| THB | @ toomai thank you for your advice, I dont think I'll go ubuntu again, because I would hate to be in the same situation with my newest install in 18 months ;) | 10:21 |
| toomai | THB: I personally would recommend that...it might be a lot easier to start over with maybe jaunty. If you wait another couple of weeks maybe the beta of karmic might be a good choice, too | 10:21 |
| mzz | Rebeka: what grawity said. That password's used to actually decrypt the keyring, so you can't just use a checkbox to bypass it. | 10:21 |
| bucky | nsadmin: <Rebeka> Yarg, if our crap win box can start and run, and Ubuntu can't, I'm not sold, this is garbage, | 10:21 |
| toomai | THB: well, Ubuntu offers LST`(Long Term Support) with certain releases | 10:21 |
| Out_Cold | nsadmin, i think it was dragged in to compare about the easy clicky-ness | 10:21 |
| grawity | Rebeka: If it asks for your keyring password, go to Seahorse and change the password to a blank one. (Might work, or not.) | 10:21 |
| toomai | THB: Ubuntu 8.04 will be supported THREE years on the desktop | 10:21 |
| gribouille | hi | 10:21 |
| THB | @ toomai: how do I find out which releases have LST? | 10:21 |
| bucky | Rebeka: i feel sorry for your lab partners | 10:22 |
| Out_Cold | lmao | 10:22 |
| toomai | THB: every other release is supported 18 months only until the next LTS release is...well...released (what might be 10.04 or 10.10) | 10:22 |
| ruud | mzz: I tried to add opensuse to my menu.lst, copied right from my menu.lst of the opensuse partition but grub says it can't mount | 10:22 |
| gribouille | I've installed firefox 3.5 and it really sux | 10:22 |
| toomai | THB: on the website of ubuntu there should be some information about the LTS releases...but....8.04 is LTS... | 10:22 |
| grawity | gribouille: In what way? | 10:22 |
| mzz | ruud: are you sure grub is saying that, not the kernel? What's the error message? | 10:22 |
| bucky | how does it suck? | 10:22 |
| toomai | THB: and will be supported until Apirl 2011 on the desktop | 10:23 |
| toomai | April* | 10:23 |
| ruud | grub is saying that yes | 10:23 |
| gribouille | grawity, I've taken a snapshot. | 10:23 |
| mzz | ruud: can you pastebin both menu.lsts? | 10:23 |
| ruud | I don't recall the exact message | 10:23 |
| nsadmin | Rebeka correct me if I'm wrong... but you seem to just want more convenience | 10:23 |
| grawity | Rebeka: On Windows, auto-login is performed by using a stored password, so the password can be used to decrypt private keys. On Linux with GDM, auto-login is done by simply changing to the wanted user ID, so there's no known password that could be used for unlocking the rest. | 10:23 |
| afv | ruud, lol, that remind me of "computer says nooo". lol, nvm | 10:23 |
| grawity | gribouille: Can you upload it somewhere? | 10:23 |
| THB | @toomai: I just need to use gparted to partition an SD card for a linux device, its all a bit much to have to jump through so many hoops, but thank you for your help, it is very much appreciated | 10:23 |
| gribouille | grawity, where ? | 10:23 |
| ruud | pastebin? | 10:23 |
| banditpower | Hello world. I caused an error on my server. Here's the shindig: i have ubuntu intrepid that had wordpress running on apache2. I installed ispcp but then I couldn't access phpmyadmin or my site. My solution was to configure /etc/apache2/sites-available/00_master.conf and /etc/apache2/ports.conf to serve ispcp on another port and an appropriate vhost on port 80. However, now php isn't working out of the site i set to port 8 | 10:23 |

| grawity | gribouille: Tinypic? | 10:24 |
| THB | @toomai I will look at 8.04 | 10:24 |
| toomai | THB: you are welcome and I am sorry that you are in this situation....hope it will help in the future | 10:24 |
| grawity | gribouille: And, how did you install firefox -- using Ubuntuzilla? | 10:24 |
| bullgard4 | [R]: Your answer is not precise enough: I'd like to know it more precisely. According to lspci I have got one audio device (82801 family) but in /dev/snd/ there are 6 different sound devices having 'pcm' in their names. (One I told you.) | 10:24 |
| Ali_nz | if a program/command has stopped resopnding how do you kill it? | 10:24 |
| gribouille | grawity, using ppa | 10:24 |
| ruud | allright | 10:24 |
| Cube_ | hello world | 10:24 |
| Rebeka | @mss - Yes, we have done that, we mentioned that we had done that before we started coming on here and started bothering you fine, helpful and very nice folks. The problems is, is that said does nothing, and that after engaging that, nothing changes, and I still get a prompt when the box re-boots. Like I said, I can't have a prompt after restart, because it kills the programme we're running, and that wallys our programme (which is kinda crashy....) So C | 10:24 |
| Rebeka | an no-one tell me how I can kill the "Enter Password for Default..." prompt I get after a crash? | 10:24 |
| [R] | bullgard4: yes... alsa is a very complicated system | 10:24 |
| mzz | gribouille: is the problem with fonts? | 10:24 |
| afv | hi Cube_ | 10:24 |
| gribouille | mzz, no | 10:24 |
| [R] | bullgard4: and 1 device will have multiple dev files | 10:24 |
| Cube_ | Ali_nz: "killall <program name>" | 10:25 |
| grawity | Rebeka: For default *what*? Give the *full* message. | 10:25 |
| mzz | gribouille: ok, then I'll just wait for the screenshot :) | 10:25 |
| Cube_ | afv: sup | 10:25 |
| Ali_nz | Cube_: where would i find a list of programs running? | 10:25 |
| ronniehood | hi, can someone help me to add tinyxml, i get an error when i try to compile vdr 1.7.8 | 10:25 |
| grawity | Ali_nz: ps ax | 10:25 |
| afv | gribouille, what problems are you having with ff? | 10:25 |
| Cube_ | Ali_nz: in the system monitor | 10:25 |
| mzz | Ali_nz: "ps -feH" or gnome-system-monitor | 10:25 |
| bullgard4 | [R]: And I could re-word my question: What is the pcmC0D0c device file for? | 10:25 |
| Out_Cold | Ali_nz, ps -aef | 10:25 |
| [R] | bullgard4: its just a part of alsa | 10:26 |
| gribouille | afv, you'll see soon | 10:26 |
| Ali_nz | ok | 10:26 |
| [R] | bullgard4: read the source code for alsa lib | 10:26 |
| afv | gribouille, i'll see soon the problems you're having? | 10:26 |
| ruud | mzz: my ubuntu menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu.com/216119/ | 10:26 |
| mzz | bullgard4: are you trying to fix some problem or are you just curious? | 10:26 |
| owen1 | how to kill x? | 10:27 |
| gribouille | afv, yes, I'm uploading a screenshot | 10:27 |
| afv | ah ok | 10:27 |
| afv | owen1, shoot him | 10:27 |
| toomai | owen1: restartion X can be done by pressing ctrl-alt-backspace (unless you run 9.04) | 10:27 |
| Cube_ | owen1: lol good luck | 10:27 |
| Cube_ | toomai: huh? they changed it in 904? | 10:27 |
| mzz | !dontzap | 10:27 |
| ubottu | To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 10:27 |
| grawity | owen1: sudo service gdm stop, usually works. | 10:27 |

| ruud | mzz: and my opensuse menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu.com/216120/ | 10:28 |
| toomai | Cube_: they disabled that nice combo in 9.04...you need to reenable it first | 10:28 |
| bullgard4 | mzz: My Ekiga 3.2.0 loads my processor (centrino Mobile Technology) with 82% of its time. | 10:28 |
| owen1 | i am in tty1, xfce (used) to run, and i am trying to run startx and use awesome instead of xfce. | 10:28 |
| Cube_ | toomai: oh coz people did it on accident? did they remap it to something less common though? | 10:28 |
| owen1 | and i can't run startx since x is still running, somewhere.. | 10:28 |
| mzz | ruud: ok. Is there more than one hd in that system (is opensuse on a different drive, not just a different partition)? | 10:28 |
| afv | Cube_, Alt+SysRq+K | 10:28 |
| gribouille | ok, guys, the scrreenshot is available at http://i25.tinypic.com/8yar2b.png | 10:28 |
| ruud | mzz: I have three drives, opensuse is on the same as ubuntu but a different partition | 10:29 |
| laeg_ | when i booted ubuntu this morning it doesn't load the GUI, doesn't give any errors and instead appears to stay in what i would call a term (white on black text) and i just get a login prompt - seems to stay in tty1, another tty seems to be stuck on checking battery state. i've tried all the options in recovery mode except the disk check because it said it would damage my mounted volume. yesterday i edited some sshd options, sudo taskel install (and later remove | 10:29 |
| toomai | Cube_: well, they CLAIM people did it on accident...I can not figure out HOW you can do that by accident...but...well, no remap...they actually disabled it...if you reenable it, it is still ctrl-alt-backspace | 10:29 |
| ruud | mzz: I use my bios to boot from the second hdd on which grub is installed | 10:29 |
| gribouille | did you see it ? | 10:29 |
| respecting | please help me i have a big problem.I have windows XP installed and i want to install Ubuntu so i can make dual boot(boot on windows or on linux).Can i made this? | 10:29 |
| [R] | respecting: just run the ubuntu cd and install it | 10:30 |
| ruud | mzz: normally it just boots from the first hdd and windows loads, only if I explicitly tell to boot from the second hdd grub starts | 10:30 |
| mzz | ruud: then try replacing "hd0" with "hd1" or "hd2" | 10:30 |
| grawity | laeg_: if you run 'sudo service gdm start', does it work? | 10:30 |
| mzz | ruud: (not sure which, depends on bios magic) | 10:30 |
| grawity | respecting: Just boot from the Ubuntu CD, install it, and that's it | 10:30 |
| toomai | respecting: yes you can...;)....you need unallocated disk space on your harddisk however. There are plenty of good tutorials for dual boot on the net | 10:30 |
| mzz | ruud: there was also a command that may be useful if you can get to a grub prompt, sec... | 10:30 |
| ruud | mzz: but why does the suse menu.lst say hd0 then? | 10:30 |
| grawity | toomai: Ubuntu can now resize the Windows partition automatically. | 10:30 |
| ruud | mzz: ok I have a grub terminal | 10:31 |
| toomai | grawity: true...but that still leads into unallocated space which is needed...;) | 10:31 |
| mzz | ruud: if you boot to a grub prompt (*not* the "sudo grub" one, actually boot into grub) you can try "geometry (hd0)" (and the same for hd1 and hd2) to figure out which drive is which. Getting you a link for more information... | 10:31 |
| ronniehood | another good idea is to reserve space for a ghost image when you test a lot ;) | 10:31 |
| grawity | toomai: On 9.04, everything is done automatically by the installer. | 10:32 |
| gribouille | afv, mzz, grawity : the scrreenshot is available at http://i25.tinypic.com/8yar2b.png | 10:32 |
| ruud | mzz: ok thanks | 10:32 |
| Rebeka | OK: So sorry to spend everyone's time so badly here. Here's the last question, if I can't get an answer then I'll leave you to let you take other folk's questions. ;) | 10:32 |
| toomai | grawity: well, yes...that tool lets you make unallocated space which is then needed for the installation of ubuntu...:) | 10:32 |
| nsadmin | Rebeka: ask away... you're not taking up resources | 10:32 |
| afv | gribouille, hmm.. that page opens normally here... did you try using a new/blank profile? | 10:32 |
| toomai | grawity: but on a personal note...I hate "automatically"...but that is just me...:) | 10:33 |
| gribouille | afv, no | 10:33 |
| ircleuser | . | 10:33 |
| ruud | mzz: going to try right now, also changed hd0 to hd1 to test | 10:33 |
| toomai | grawity: at least in this context of manipulation the harddisk for dual boots (which I stopped using since new harddisks are very cheap) | 10:33 |
| mzz | ruud: see the top of http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Installing-GRUB-using-grub_002dinstall.html#Installing-GRUB-using-grub_002dinstall | 10:33 |
| Rebeka | ok, so after the box boots, it says "Enter Password for default keyring to unlock" and the normal usr password unlocks it. I just need the box to boot! Is there any workaround to get past this thingy!? | 10:33 |
| mzz | bleh, timing | 10:33 |
| nsadmin | btw, the autologin thing is pretty much at the application level, it's nowhere near the kernel | 10:33 |
| gribouille | afv, how can I create a new profile ? | 10:34 |
| grawity | Rebeka: I already told you, remove the password from the keyring !@$ | 10:34 |
| nsadmin | the box doesn't boot without this? | 10:34 |
| Rebeka | (it prompts outta usr/bin/nm-applet) | 10:34 |
| mzz | gribouille: I saw, sorry, was multitasking. Renders just fine in 3.5 here. Does it work in firefox safe mode (exit it completely and use "firefox-3.5 -safe-mode" to start it again) or in a temporary fresh profile? | 10:34 |
| afv | gribouille, http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager | 10:34 |
| howie | how can i install kernal? | 10:34 |
| howie | ... | 10:35 |
| grawity | mzz: I think he means the ugly interface, not the page itself | 10:35 |
| ikonia | Rebeka: you can make gnome-keyring remember passwords, there is normally a checkbox for this | 10:35 |
| Rebeka | @grawity, sorry, how would one do such a thing? | 10:35 |
| grawity | ikonia: But there's still the password of keyring. | 10:35 |
| mzz | gribouille: wait, grawity has a point. You *are* complaining about the content, not the firefox interface? | 10:35 |
| mehdi | hi to all guys | 10:35 |
| gribouille | mzz, let's try it | 10:35 |
| grawity | Rebeka: Go to the password manager (Seahorse). | 10:35 |
| ikonia | grawity: I thought there was a checkbox on the prompt for that too | 10:35 |
| bucky | ikonia grawity those nice gui admin tools are nice if you can log in | 10:35 |
| afv | yes, it's the content.. http://fr.news.yahoo.com | 10:35 |
| grawity | bucky: She can. | 10:35 |
| ikonia | bucky: she didn't say she couldn't log in | 10:35 |
| grawity | ikonia: If you login normally, then your password is used to unlock the default keyring. | 10:36 |
| bullgard4 | [R]: There is no such thing as "the alsa lib". Rather, there are > 10. So what filename do you mean exactly? | 10:36 |
| Rebeka | @grawity: Forgive my ignorance, but where is Seahorse? | 10:36 |
| grawity | Rebeka: Accessories -> Password Manager, probably. | 10:36 |
| mehdi | how can I install best proxi in my ubunto | 10:36 |
| mzz | bullgard4: are you sure this is alsa-related? did you profile it or something? | 10:36 |
| ikonia | grawity: interesting so the auto login isn't "your" password so the keyring is not unlocked, interesting senerio | 10:36 |
| grawity | ikonia: But if you use autologon, there's no known password, so it has to ask you for one, otherwise the keyring cannot be unlocked. | 10:36 |
| mzz | bullgard4: also, the files below /proc/asound probably tell you what's what in /dev/snd/. | 10:36 |
| ikonia | grawity: yes, I see where you are going | 10:36 |
| gribouille | mzz, what do you mean ? | 10:37 |
| bucky | ikonia: is that a bug or a feature | 10:37 |
| grawity | ikonia: With autologon, gdm simply uses its rootness to switch users. | 10:37 |
| ikonia | bucky: neither | 10:37 |
| grawity | It's just how Linux works. | 10:37 |
| gribouille | mzz, I'm complaining about the way firefox diplays a page | 10:37 |
| mzz | gribouille: you're in kde, and getting the stock gtk theme, so the firefox user interface looks a bit clunky. | 10:37 |
| ikonia | grawity: yup, I can see how that would cause her an issue | 10:37 |
| grawity | (On Windows, autologon is performed by using a password that is stored in the Registry.) | 10:37 |
| bullgard4 | mzz: I am not sure. I am trying to find out why this happens. I do not know what the verb "to profile" means. Can you elaborate. | 10:37 |
| laeg_ | grawity: i'll have to reboot into ubuntu to try it - is there anything else i should try? | 10:37 |
| mehdi | I need a proxi that be anti filter | 10:37 |
| ikonia | mehdi: squid | 10:37 |
| ruud | mzz: the error message was "error 17: can not mount selected partition" | 10:38 |
| mzz | bullgard4: sorry, nontrivial, can't walk you through that | 10:38 |
| grawity | laeg_: use 'tail' on /var/log/syslog and /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 10:38 |
| HawttDawgg | i need a proxy | 10:38 |
| gribouille | mzz, the problem is not the interface | 10:38 |
| HawttDawgg | =( | 10:38 |
| bullgard4 | mzz: Ok. | 10:38 |
| mehdi | squid? | 10:38 |
| mzz | ruud: ok, that's definitely grub then, and given what you're doing I'm pretty sure using a different value for X in (hdX,Y) will help | 10:38 |
| OttifantSir | I have a (hopefully) quick question: I have "deleted" all panels, using AWN in its place. This has, however, disabled Alt + F2 Run Dialog. Any idea on how to re-enable it? | 10:38 |
| fretegi | hey guys, anyone know how to make a restorable ISO of a linux Hardrive? | 10:38 |
| fretegi | preferably bootable? | 10:38 |
| Rebeka | @grawity: I cannot see such a thing in 9.04. App>Accs>Password and Encryption Keys ... just brings up a window | 10:38 |
| ruud | mzz: ok, I'll try | 10:38 |
| Slart | OttifantSir: are you running compiz? | 10:38 |
| OttifantSir | Slart: Yes. | 10:39 |
| laeg_ | grawity: tail /var/log/syslog - tail /var/log/Xorg.0.log? what will that do? unfortunately irssi has also stopped working so i have to keep logging into windows to come back here :( | 10:39 |
| cherva | can someone help me with this d-bus error in Xorg.0.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/216127/ this leads to various X crashes | 10:39 |
| grawity | Rebeka: Yeah, that's Seahorse -- go to the last tab, it should show one keyring "login" | 10:39 |
| Buletin | cool things to do on ubuntu? | 10:39 |
| Rebeka | (sorry, I'm not a linux person, gimme some time) | 10:39 |
| grawity | laeg_: 'tail' shows the last few lines of the specified file. | 10:39 |
| mehdi | squid... what is this I dont know about this | 10:39 |
| Rebeka | Solid, I'll give it a try, | 10:39 |
| mzz | ruud: the trick is grub accesses drives through the bios while linux accesses them more directly. By the time you're booted into linux grub can no longer figure out what order the bios puts them in, and that order may change depending on the boot order configured through the bios. | 10:39 |
| Slart | OttifantSir: can't you map alt+f2 to something from there? I'm not sure what the dialog is called that pops up when you press alt+f2 with the panels there | 10:39 |
| laeg_ | grawity: and what will i do with these lines? | 10:39 |
| gribouille | mzz, don't you see the thick black lines on the screenshot ? | 10:40 |
| mzz | ruud: so you really need to actually boot into grub to be able to tell what order it gets the drives in. | 10:40 |
| grawity | laeg_: You read them. And see if they tell anything about why X fails. | 10:40 |
| mzz | gribouille: yes, but mainly you're getting a completely different page style than I'm getting here. | 10:40 |
| ruud | mzz: geometry returned four partitions on hd0 of which two are ext2fs | 10:40 |
| mehdi | I need help for squid... | 10:40 |
| ruud | mzz: the other ones are unknow | 10:40 |
| mehdi | what is this | 10:40 |
| houhou | hello | 10:40 |
| gribouille | mzz, what do you mean by page style ? | 10:40 |
| mzz | gribouille: err, no, wait. I didn't scroll down far enough. | 10:40 |
| banditpower | Hello world. I caused an error on my server. Here's the shindig: i have ubuntu intrepid that had wordpress running on apache2.

| ruud | mzz: I'll try the second partition | 10:41 |
| OttifantSir | Slart: I guess I can map it, but as you pointed out: To what? | 10:41 |
| afv | OttifantSir, open CompizConfig Settings Manager, Gnome Compatibility, and map the keys | 10:41 |
| houhou | I use kubuntu 8.04 the list of program in ADEPT is not complete | 10:41 |
| Slart | OttifantSir: I'm looking around.. I'll let you know if I find something | 10:41 |
| grawity | gribouille: Sometimes, Ctrl-F5 (or clearing the cache) helps with such problems. | 10:41 |
| afv | Slart, just fount it already | 10:42 |
| afv | found* | 10:42 |
| mzz | gribouille: huh, not sure what's going on there :( | 10:42 |
| gribouille | grawity, I never had such a problem with firefox | 10:42 |
| mzz | gribouille: (unless it's some pretty weird cairo/driver interaction) | 10:42 |
| mzz | gribouille: I've seen vaguely similar corruption but only on very tall pages | 10:42 |
| mehdi | please get me proxi that worked | 10:42 |
| OttifantSir | afv, Slart: Gnome Compatibility is running, and Alt + F2 is mapped to Run-dialog already. Seems like it's more to it than I have time for now. Off to work in five minutes. Thanks for trying anyhow;-) | 10:43 |
| Slart | afv: that works even when the panels aren't loaded? | 10:43 |
| spsneo | !ff35 | 10:43 |
| ubottu | Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 10:43 |
| afv | no panels at all? i don't know :| | 10:43 |
| houhou | how can I update the list of program in ADEPT? | 10:43 |
| afv | i use the top panel | 10:43 |
| Slart | OttifantSir: I'll keep looking.. catch me later and ask me how the search went =) | 10:43 |
| Buletin | cool things to do on ubuntu? | 10:43 |
| afv | Buletin, ? | 10:44 |
| Slart | Buletin: I hear that chatting in #ubuntu-offtopic is supposed to be awesome.. have you tried it? | 10:44 |
| OttifantSir | Slart: I turned on a binding for opening a terminal. It will do for now. | 10:44 |
| afv | i'll try that one myself :p | 10:44 |
| Buletin | no i mean cool things to do on ubuntu machine | 10:44 |
| ronniehood | g++: tinystr.c: No such file or directory i don't know how to add it, http://sourceforge.net/projects/tinyxml/ , if i unpack the downloaded file then i still don't have the correct files | 10:44 |
| mehdi | I need a best proxi for firefox | 10:45 |
| gribouille | how do I clear private data in firefox 3.5 ? | 10:45 |
| janisozaur | how can i check if a compiled program uses SSEx extensions? | 10:45 |
| Slart | Buletin: ok, to put it a little more bluntly.. ask in #ubuntu-offtopic , this is the support channel.. | 10:45 |
| grawity | gribouille: Tools -> Clear Recent History | 10:45 |
| grawity | mehdi: Tor. | 10:45 |
| Slart | OttifantSir: ok, if it makes you happy =) | 10:45 |
| bucky | ronniehood: tinystr.c is not in jaunty | 10:45 |
| mehdi | Tor? | 10:46 |
| Slart | !tor | 10:46 |
| ubottu | Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 10:46 |
| gribouille | grawity, does it also clear the cache ? | 10:46 |
| ronniehood | i have to upgrade to 9.04 ? | 10:46 |
| ruud | mzz: booting opensuse worked, but then it switched to text mode and stopped half way (after recognising my mouse) | 10:46 |
| bucky | ronniehood: tinystr.c is not in jaunty 9.04 | 10:46 |
| grawity | Yeah - click the button next to "Details". | 10:46 |
| ruud | mzz: kernel settings wrong or something like that? | 10:46 |
| mzz | ruud: if it's mounting your root partition I blame opensuse for that one, not grub :) | 10:47 |
| mzz | ruud: failed how, though? | 10:47 |
| grawity | gribouille: And choose "Everything" for time range. | 10:47 |
| ronniehood | i use 8.10 at the moment | 10:47 |
| ruud | mzz: it just stopped booting | 10:47 |
| ruud | mzz: I got some kind of terminal | 10:47 |
| mzz | ruud: ask your favorite opensuse support channel?:P | 10:47 |
| bucky | ronniehood: are you sure you did a make install on tinyxml ? | 10:47 |
| ruud | mzz: but I couldn't log in | 10:47 |
| mehdi | <ubottu> tanks | 10:47 |
| ruud | mzz: I think this is related to grub | 10:48 |
| mzz | ruud: why/how? | 10:48 |
| ruud | mzz: grub passes some things to the os, like the kernel and some other options | 10:48 |
| mzz | ruud: if it mounted / grub's job is pretty much done. There's a slim chance you need to make some change in fstab, but it should fail pretty obviously if that is the case. | 10:48 |
| ikonia | ruud: once the kernel is starting to boot, grub is out of the equasion | 10:48 |
| ronniehood | make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop. | 10:48 |
| laeg_ | grawity: i'm going to try now and right down the results - ty | 10:48 |
| stuarticus | Can anyon advise on a tricky install?... Laptop, CD drive seems to be goosed. Can't boot any Live cd, not even UBCD! And no boot from USB option... Have external HD encosure and another machine though.... Advice? | 10:48 |
| ikonia | ronniehood: what are you trying to build ? | 10:48 |
| der_On | I've just run a distro update and now my nautilus is gone. I use ubuntu hardy. I also cannot reinstall nautilus as some dependencies are not allowing me to install certain packages needed by nautilus. | 10:49 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: buy a usb cdrom is the simple/most effective option | 10:49 |
| ronniehood | vr 1.7.8 , it goes wrong with tinuxml | 10:49 |
| ronniehood | tiny | 10:49 |
| mzz | stuarticus: does the regular hd still boot? | 10:49 |
| grawity | stuarticus: How about boot over LAN? | 10:49 |
| fretegi | boot network? | 10:49 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: buy replacement laptop drive, as netbooting is more effort than it's worth for one machine | 10:49 |
| grawity | (PXE boot) | 10:49 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: plus you will need a cdrom in the future | 10:49 |
| stuarticus | Does have netowrk boot, not sure how to set it up | 10:49 |
| stuarticus | It reads cds okay, seemingly, just seems to fail on boot | 10:50 |
| stuarticus | have tested ram, seems ok | 10:50 |
| Slart | is there a command where I can click on a window in X and get properties for it? | 10:50 |
| mzz | stuarticus: it has to boot off something to install ubuntu, but as long as it still boots at all you may have options. | 10:50 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: what is the problem on boot ? | 10:50 |
| mzz | stuarticus: (you can install ubuntu from an existing linux install, for example) | 10:50 |
| stuarticus | It's a windows install at the mo, critical stop | 10:50 |
| gribouille | how can I know what diplay drivers are used on my system ? | 10:50 |
| stuarticus | lsass or winlogon | 10:50 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: you can't boot a windows install ? | 10:50 |
| ruud | mzz: could this be the problem? kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-SAMSUNG_HD501LJ_S0MUJ1CQA24672-part3 | 10:50 |
| stuarticus | Can't boot anything! | 10:51 |
| mzz | ruud: not if you copied that from the other grub correctly. | 10:51 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: ok - so swap the drive then | 10:51 |
| Rebeka | Hey folks! I just logged in from the hog-box, | 10:51 |
| ruud | mzz: I had to change the partition number also though it was copied directly | 10:51 |
| mzz | ruud: that root=... bit is just passed as-is by grub to the kernel. Grub doesn't process it. | 10:51 |
| Rebeka | and you totally helped me fix the problem! | 10:51 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: you'll need a cdrom drive for normal computer use, so swapping it out seems sensible | 10:51 |
| stuarticus | laptop, can't see hot ro remove, Vaio, maybe non standARD? | 10:51 |
| ruud | mzz: that is exactly the problem I think | 10:51 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: sure it is standard, take it to a hardware shop to get it replaced if you are not comfortable yourself | 10:51 |
| mzz | ruud: no, it isn't. | 10:52 |
| ruud | mzz: as suse did load, but with the wrong commands I think so it couldn't continue | 10:52 |
| Rebeka | It only took a few minor tweaks, | 10:52 |
| stuarticus | Comfortable, just can't find the screws! | 10:52 |
| mzz | ruud: again: grub doesn't process that string. Neither your working opensuse grub nor your failing ubuntu grub does. | 10:52 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: manuals available online | 10:52 |
| ruud | mzz: I know | 10:52 |
| stuarticus | How about a good source for network boot info? Is it easy? | 10:52 |
| mzz | stuarticus: if you have another system you can plug the laptop drive in you can install ubuntu there (chrooted) then swap the drive back | 10:52 |
| ruud | mzz: but the os that grub loaded does, right? | 10:52 |
| Rebeka | So you're all fine folks, and I wanna thank you 'fer your patience with my problems and questions, thanks again, | 10:52 |
| stuarticus | Hmm, is it pretty easy? | 10:53 |
| mzz | ruud: grub needs to locate and load a kernel image and (optionally) an initrd, pass a string of arguments to the kernel, and boot it. That's all it does here. | 10:53 |
| boraklavun | hi there I ve a question about google earth | 10:53 |
| ikonia | stuarticus: I'd advise you to deal with your drive as without one you'll have problems in the future | 10:53 |
| mzz | ruud: your kernel boots. Therefore grub is not the problem, unless you pasted the string of arguments over wrong. | 10:53 |
| boraklavun | need hel about that would you please | 10:53 |
| Rebeka | Take care all, | 10:54 |
| stuarticus | yes, if i was sure i was going to use the thing i wouldn't mind paying for new cd | 10:54 |
| mzz | ruud: please ask your favorite opensuse support channel to help you figure out what opensuse is actually getting stuck on. | 10:54 |
| ortsvorsteher | boraklavun: just ask, tell us complete details | 10:54 |
| ruud | mzz: yes my kernel boots, and it worked partially like I said | 10:54 |
| banditpower | Hello world. I caused an error on my server. Here's the shindig: i have ubuntu intrepid that had wordpress running on apache2. I installed ispcp but then I couldn't access phpmyadmin or my site. My solution was to configure /etc/apache2/sites-available/00_master.conf and /etc/apache2/ports.conf to serve ispcp on another port and an appropriate vhost on port 80. However, now php isn't working out of the site i set to port 8 | 10:54 |
| mzz | ruud: "it just stopped booting" doesn't help me at all, and even if you told *this* channel what the last few messages before that were we wouldn't necessarily know what they meant. | 10:54 |
| stuarticus | mzz: can you clarify chrooted install? | 10:54 |
| ruud | mzz: I changed the partition, I'm checking if it works now | 10:55 |
| mzz | stuarticus: sec... | 10:55 |
| stuarticus | thx | 10:55 |
| owen1 | is there a terminal that can zoom in/out other than terminator? | 10:55 |
| grawity | owen1: gnome-terminal? | 10:55 |
| laeg_ | grawity: sudo service gdm start asks for my pass and then just gives the bash prompt. syslog lists failures starting and then de-activating etho. xorg talks only about the mouse - what now? | 10:55 |
| boraklavun | I installed google earth on ubunutu 9.04 64 bit but unfortunately ; it is not working there is give te error about firewall and authentication | 10:55 |
| owen1 | grawity: i'll try it. thanks. | 10:55 |
| owen1 | grawity: what about xfce-terminal+ | 10:56 |
| boraklavun | I check firewall and also I did not use firewall | 10:56 |
| owen1 | ? | 10:56 |
| Ahadiel | owen1, xfce's terminal is "terminal" | 10:56 |
| mzz | stuarticus: best explanation I can find offhand is the "Without CD" at the bottom of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux | 10:56 |
| grawity | owen1: Haven't tried that. | 10:56 |
| GorodV | Q: is there netcat on ubuntu 9.04 liveCD? | 10:56 |
| grawity | Ahadiel: No, it's xfce4-terminal | 10:56 |
| mzz | stuarticus: I haven't actually done this with ubuntu though, I think. | 10:56 |
| boraklavun | I dont know anything about that can anyone advice for that | 10:56 |
| Ahadiel | grawity, You sure? I could've sworn it's /usr/bin/terminal | 10:57 |
| acke_ | gribouille: what does it say if you run fglrxinfo? | 10:57 |
| grawity | Ahadiel: http://packages.debian.org/lenny/i386/xfce4-terminal/filelist | 10:57 |
| damianos | Hello! I have 2 (small) technical problems with my xubuntu ...1)Although sound was enabled now i can hear nothing (indicators show master 100% -my speakers have no problem- my soundcard seems to be recognized...) 2)at sites like youtube I can not actually see the videos and my cpu works over the top.... | 10:58 |
| damianos | any idea??!! | 10:58 |
| Slart | damianos: have you installed the proprietary flash from adobe? | 10:59 |
| stuarticus | mzz: thanks, looks doable, will try | 10:59 |
| ruud | mzz: chatting from suse right now | 11:00 |
| ruud | mzz: I was right | 11:00 |
| laeg_ | grawity: sudo service gdm start asks for my pass and then just gives the bash prompt. syslog lists failures starting and then de-activating etho. xorg talks only about the mouse - is there anything else i can try? | 11:00 |
| damianos | slart: let me see... | 11:00 |
| FreeFull | Hey, when I try to run "sudo apt-get install firefox" to upgrade my firefox, I get this error: E: Nie udało się uzyskać blokady /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable). I checked and there are no other processes running that would have to do with package management. | 11:01 |
| mzz | ruud: about what? | 11:02 |
| ruud | mzz: it was the parameters grub passed to suse | 11:03 |
| mzz | ruud: changed from what to what? | 11:03 |
| ruud | mzz: I changed -part3 to -part2 | 11:03 |
| mzz | ruud: that makes no sense, unless you moved partitions around | 11:03 |
| mzz | ruud: (did you remove a partition in front of the one opensuse is on?) | 11:03 |
| Pirate_Hunter | is there a command that removes old linux headers or leaves just the one i want? | 11:04 |
| ruud | mzz: I changed this " kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-SAMSUNG_HD501LJ_S0MUJ1CQA24672-part2" | 11:04 |
| ruud | mzz: as far as I know I didn't remove a partition but it looks like it yes | 11:04 |
| mzz | FreeFull: output of "sudo fuser /var/cache/apt/archives/lock"? | 11:04 |
| FreeFull | mzz: /var/cache/apt/archives/lock: 5359 | 11:05 |
| FreeFull | Aah | 11:05 |
| ruud | mzz: anyway it works now, thanks very much mzz. | 11:05 |
| FreeFull | I did miss a process that was using it | 11:05 |
| mzz | ruud: semi-related: lvm is pretty nice for avoiding this kind of glitch, since it gives you more persistent partition names instead of relying on ordering for numbers | 11:05 |
| FreeFull | Thanks | 11:05 |
| ruud | mzz: what is lvm? | 11:05 |
| mzz | ruud: let's see if I can find you an introduction. It looks rather intimidating at first, but if you only use a small subset of its features it's actually *easier* than oldfashioned partitioning, imho | 11:06 |
| ruud | mzz: ok | 11:06 |
| linux_linux | how can i know the version of chatzilla ? chatzilla --version does not work | 11:07 |
| enigmass | Ciauzzz XD | 11:07 |
| Cube_ | lololololololololoooooooooooool | 11:07 |
| mzz | ruud: bleh, can't find a particularly great introduction offhand. Just google. | 11:07 |
| bazhang | Cube_, ?? | 11:08 |
| ruud | mzz: ok, thanks again | 11:08 |
| stuarticus | mzz: the drive currently has xp on it, will chroot install install grub for me? | 11:08 |
| mzz | ruud: basically you end up with one or more "normal" partitions merged in a (named) volume group, with (named) logical volumes inside that. | 11:08 |
| fretegi | so anyway to burn a bootable iso of a linux partition for restore purposes? | 11:08 |
| linux_linux | what's the command to know the version of chatzilla ? | 11:08 |
| gribouille | linux_linux, dpkg -s mozilla-chatzilla | 11:08 |
| mzz | ruud: the useful thing in this case is that you can just refer to (say) /dev/main/root without having to worry about partition numbers changing (it finds all physical volumes on boot, if the partition number those are on changes that doesn't affect the /dev/main/root name) | 11:09 |
| mzz | stuarticus: for the trick I had in mind you'd need a linux install, although there are some options if all you have is a (working!) windows. | 11:10 |
| gribouille | linux_linux, dpkg -s mozilla-chatzilla | egrep Version | 11:10 |
| mzz | stuarticus: I don't know what the most convenient option is there | 11:10 |
| stuarticus | I have another linux install | 11:10 |
| diddy | Does the old Firefox 3.0 have to be uninstalled manually after installing Firefox 3.5? | 11:10 |
| gribouille | diddy, no | 11:10 |
| mzz | diddy: you can just keep both installed, they shouldn't bite. | 11:10 |
| ruud | mzz: does grub support that? | 11:10 |
| mzz | ruud: no, that's the main downside. You need a separate /boot for grub to use. | 11:11 |
| diddy | But I don't need the 3.0 anymore. Why should I keep it? | 11:11 |
| FreeFull | It's easier to write firefox and have 3.5 start up | 11:11 |
| mzz | diddy: I haven't checked if it lets you uninstall. | 11:11 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: Package `mozilla-chatzilla' is not installed and no info is available. | 11:12 |
| gribouille | diddy, you can remove it if you xant | 11:12 |
| linux_linux | Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files, | 11:12 |
| linux_linux | and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents. | 11:12 |
| grawity | I just used ubuntuzilla to update 3.0. (It did create some temporary font problems though) | 11:12 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: Package `mozilla-chatzilla' is not installed and no info is available.Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents. | 11:12 |
| laeg_ | grawity: sudo service gdm start asks for my pass and then just gives the bash prompt. syslog lists failures starting and then de-activating etho. xorg talks only about the mouse - is there anything else i can try? | 11:12 |
| grawity | I don't know :/ | 11:12 |
| laeg_ | :( | 11:13 |
| gribouille | linux_linux, do you have the chatzilla program on your system ? | 11:13 |
| laeg_ | was really hoping to ssh home from work today | 11:13 |
| FreeFull | laeg_: sudo X and see what happens | 11:13 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: if i click chatzilla from Internet>chatzilla and then ps aux isee a process like seamonkey-bin | 11:13 |
| laeg_ | FreeFull: ok brb - i'm on windows and have to reboot into ubuntu because irssi can't connect | 11:13 |
| laeg_ | grawity: ty anyway man | 11:13 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: it's /usr/lib/seamonkey/seamonkey-bin -chat | 11:14 |
| gribouille | linux_linux, normally, if you start the program, there should be a menu entry that gives the version of the program | 11:14 |
| === MadMax is now known as Guest97757 | ||
| ruud | mzz: ok I'll just stick with this | 11:15 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: yea it's ChatZilla 0.9.75.1 ,but is there any command to display that ? | 11:15 |
| gribouille | linux_linux, there is no general command to display the version of a program | 11:16 |
| Cobalt | gribouille: program --version ususally works. Or dpkg -l | grep programname. Something like that. | 11:17 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: firefox --version ,isn't a general command to display the version of firefox ? | 11:17 |
| diddy | How can Firefox 3.0 be removed. sudo aptitude remove firefox doesn't do it for me. | 11:17 |
| gribouille | linux_linux, it may work for firefox, but not for any program | 11:17 |
| Cobalt | diddy: Isn't the package name firefox-3.0 rather? | 11:17 |
| FreeFull | Why does firefox 3.5 call itself shiretoko? | 11:18 |
| diddy | How did you find that out? | 11:18 |
| diddy | Cobalt, How did you find that out? | 11:18 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: yea | 11:18 |
| laeg_ | sorry, who was it that asked me to try sudo X? | 11:18 |
| FreeFull | laeg_: What happened? | 11:19 |
| laeg_ | :) | 11:19 |
| Cobalt | diddy: It tells you when you install it. Your package manager of choice should also list it as such. | 11:19 |
| laeg_ | ehm | 11:19 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: dpkg -l | chatzilla got this ii seamonkey-chatzilla 1.1.15+nobinonly-0ubuntu2 Seamonkey Chatzilla IRC client | 11:19 |
| laeg_ | some text flashed for a split second | 11:19 |
| laeg_ | FreeFull: then the screen want blank | 11:19 |
| laeg_ | left it for 30 seconds, nothing happened, completely black screen | 11:19 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: is chatzilla different or built in for different program ? | 11:19 |
| gribouille | linux_linux, i don't know, I don't use it | 11:20 |
| FreeFull | laeg_: Definitely an X problem then | 11:20 |
| linux_linux | gribouille: for mozilla and for seamonkey ,is chatzilla different ? | 11:20 |
| kane77 | hi, I don't know if anyone will be able to help, but I have an e-book in pdf and I would like to increase font so that I will be able to read it better on my cell phone, any ideas how to do it? | 11:20 |
| FreeFull | linux_linux: no | 11:20 |
| laeg_ | FreeFull: isn't it strange etho doesn't work though? | 11:20 |
| FreeFull | laeg_: you mean eth0? | 11:20 |
| linux_linux | except pidgin,xchat what else for irc ? | 11:20 |
| laeg_ | yeah sorry | 11:20 |
| diddy | Firefox 3.5 is beta software? | 11:21 |
| diddy | Ahhhhhhh | 11:21 |
| bazhang | linux_linux, weechat irssi konversation | 11:21 |
| laeg_ | FreeFull: syslog lists it failing and then deactivating - when i try bash with network support from recovery it tries to config DHCP but i've a static internal/external ip | 11:21 |
| diddy | Damn, I already removed 3.0 | 11:21 |
| laeg_ | FreeFull: so do i just re-install x, and if so how? | 11:21 |
| Shamoun | hi guys, i was wondering how easy it is to configure new hardware in ubuntu? if i add a new pci card to a system, can i configure it entirely through gui? or do i need to open up a terminal and load modules myself? | 11:22 |
| Cobalt | Shamoun: A lot of hardware is autodetected afaik. | 11:23 |
| mzz | Shamoun: depends on the card. For properly supported stuff it'll just work. | 11:23 |
| der_On | Well I've figured out my problem starts with the libgail18 package. I need that one to reinstall nautilus, But if i want to install libgail18 it want's to remove dozens of usefull applications. Does anybody know a solution? | 11:23 |
| Shamoun | cobalt, after installation correct? | 11:23 |
| linux_linux | is there any irc client except pidgin,xchat,chatzilla ? | 11:23 |
| Cobalt | Shamoun: Of course, after you plug in whatever hardware. | 11:24 |
| owen1 | i get "Failed to contact the GConf daemon; exiting." when running gnome-terminal | 11:24 |
| Cobalt | linux_linux: For the command line, there is also irssi. | 11:24 |
| Shamoun | because in the past that used to be the weakness of linux distros that were easy to install for non linux users, the initial setup went smooth but any additions to the system weren't handled very well | 11:24 |
| Cobalt | Shamoun: How long ago are you talking about here? | 11:24 |
| Shamoun | linux_linux, tons | 11:24 |
| skiwithpete | hi | 11:25 |
| Shamoun | Cobalt, a few years ago | 11:25 |
| Cobalt | That's quite a long time back :). I think things have evolved a little since. | 11:25 |
| Shamoun | the days before HAL | 11:25 |
| skiwithpete | can anyone tell me how to find out what vid card I've got? I'm having problems with 9.04 displaying slowly | 11:25 |
| mzz | skiwithpete: try "lspci | grep -i vga" | 11:25 |
| linux_linux | Shamoun: what is tons ? | 11:26 |
| skiwithpete | cheers mzz | 11:26 |
| Shamoun | linux_linux, i have personally used the 3 you mentioned as well as irssi and epic4 there are plenty of others, you should start by determining what kind of interface you want and going from there | 11:27 |
| Shamoun | ie kde / gnome / terminal | 11:27 |
| linux_linux | Shamoun: is epic4 a teminal based client ? | 11:27 |
| Shamoun | linux_linux, yes | 11:28 |
| Cobalt | linux_linux: If I remember correctly though, irssi is more recent. | 11:28 |
| skiwithpete | ok, I've got a radeon | 11:28 |
| linux_linux | i'm looking for a chatclient with graphical interface ,not terminal based | 11:29 |
| skiwithpete | are there known problems with "ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY" | 11:29 |
| mzz | skiwithpete: looks like that's an oldish chip that should work ok using the "radeon" driver | 11:30 |
| Starcraftmazter | hello, i have a problem reading a 4.3gb file from a dvd on ubuntu | 11:30 |
| Cobalt | linux_linux: Try this in a terminal: apt-cache search irc | grep -i client | 11:30 |
| skiwithpete | mzz, where do i get the latest radeon driver? | 11:30 |
| grawity | irssi <3 | 11:30 |
| mzz | skiwithpete: you should already have it | 11:30 |
| laeg_ | FreeFull: so do i just re-install x, and if so how? someone in #xorg said sudo X is supposed to black out the screen? | 11:30 |
| Starcraftmazter | anyone know why it doesnt work? no particular error messages, just says it fails to read it | 11:30 |
| skiwithpete | like I say its running slow on 9.04 | 11:30 |
| mzz | skiwithpete: what's the actual problem again, and can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 11:30 |
| skiwithpete | mzz, I was afraid you'd say that | 11:31 |
| mzz | skiwithpete: heh, yeah, sorry. | 11:31 |
| skiwithpete | mzz, sorry, I don't know what you mean? | 11:31 |
| gilles | linux_linux: You can use Pidgin, it's under Applications > Internet | 11:31 |
| Cobalt | Starcraftmazter: Corrupt file? Corrupt DVD/filesystem? | 11:31 |
| skiwithpete | what's pastebin | 11:31 |
| mzz | !pastebin > skiwithpete | 11:31 |
| ubottu | skiwithpete, please see my private message | 11:31 |
| owen1 | linux_linux: irssi is better than any gui-based clients, imho | 11:31 |
| linux_linux | Cobalt: thanks | 11:31 |
| mzz | skiwithpete: specifically "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" should work | 11:31 |
| linux_linux | gilles: except pidgin ,xchat,chatzilla | 11:32 |
| Cobalt | linux_linux: A lot of those will not be what you want, but it does give you a starting point and an idea of what might be available. | 11:32 |
| mzz | owen1: mmm, matter of taste, but irssi+screen is hard to beat | 11:32 |
| linux_linux | Cobalt: yea ,thank you | 11:32 |
| Starcraftmazter | Cobalt: no, im sure it worked fine on my other ubuntu pc | 11:32 |

| respecting | please very urgent help.I have windows xp installed and i have NTFS.Now i'm using norton partition magic to make a new partition to install on it ubuntu.It told me to choose EXT2 or EXT3 file system.What must i choose please please? | 11:36 |
| nikolas23 | ok ok, sorry | 11:36 |
| Starcraftmazter | Cobalt: i got some errors, sense key: medium error, I/O error, dev sr0, secontor 91.... | 11:36 |
| Starcraftmazter | sector* | 11:36 |
| linux_linux | Cobalt: :) | 11:36 |
| bazhang | respecting, ext3 | 11:36 |
| respecting | Sure? | 11:36 |
| respecting | Are you sure? | 11:36 |
| fretegi | ext 3 for root and ext2 for boot | 11:37 |
| Madpilot | respecting, ext3 - but the ubuntu installer can partition & format as well. | 11:37 |
| bazhang | respecting, yes sure | 11:37 |
| respecting | okay i will use ext3 thank you | 11:37 |
| respecting | very much | 11:37 |
| Cobalt | Starcraftmazter: IO error sounds like hardware. Not sure though. Medium error... well, problem with the DVD, at a guess. | 11:37 |
| skiwithpete | just had the comp freeze on me | 11:37 |
| damianos | can someone help? | 11:37 |
| mzz | respecting: I'd just use the ubuntu installer's partitioner (you can use that norton thing to create empty space for it to use if you like) | 11:37 |
| skiwithpete | restarting then will | 11:37 |

| mzz | alfacat: yes | 11:37 |
| skiwithpete | might be a bigger prob | 11:37 |
| mzz | alfacat: the installer defaults to ext3 but does allow you to create ext4 partitions. | 11:38 |
| arand | alfacat: yes, advanced partitoning allows ext4 | 11:38 |
| arand | alfacat: or if it's called "manual" | 11:38 |

| bazhang | PeruLinux, #ubuntu-es | 11:39 |
| nikolas23 | i'd like to ask you, I have a problem. Whenever I install dkms package, I get a disk error at startup (UNC error). I need dkms in order to use nvidia drivers. If I don't install them, my computer graphics suck! | 11:39 |
| PeruLinux | thank you bazhang | 11:40 |
| alfacat | why does X fails to recognise my CRT? and, how can I patch it so it lets me use higher def then 800x600? | 11:40 |
| nikolas23 | can I make synaptic install dkms at another part of the disk, which is not ruined? | 11:40 |
| arand | nikolas23: I though you didn't have to install dkms normally, it works with just pulling in the the nvidia driver... | 11:41 |
| arand | nikolas23: If the disk is defective, run fsck (sudo touch /forcefsck and reboot) | 11:42 |
| nikolas23 | arand: I tried to run fsck but when it finds the bad sector it stops | 11:43 |
| nikolas23 | arand: synaptic says dkms is needed to get nvidia drivers installed | 11:43 |
| arand | nikolas23: ok, does fsck say anything else (at that point you might have to boot up on a livecd and run fsck with some parameters) | 11:44 |
| nikolas23 | I run it now and says that /dev/sda5 is clean | 11:45 |
| arand | nikolas23: hmm, I guess dkms is installed by default per standard... | 11:45 |
| nikolas23 | arand: it says something about cleaning orphaned i node ##### | 11:46 |
| arand | nikolas23: then hopefully no disk errors... | 11:46 |
| der_On | I've managed to solve my problem with atitude. There was an dependency error and some packages had to be downgraded. now Nautilus is back. | 11:47 |

| damianos | Hello I still have a problem...I may have installed an older abobe plugin...so the videos at you tube doesn't play...I can see the preview and tha bar loading but the video doesnt flow... | 11:48 |
| nikolas23 | arand: I don't know if this helps, but I had Vista and formatted the partition. Is there any chance Ubuntu used windows files that now don't exist? | 11:48 |
| nikolas23 | arand: It was a dual boot | 11:49 |
| pete_ | is mzz still here | 11:49 |
| Cryptorchild | pete_, search mzz nickname on the sidebar | 11:49 |
| Cryptorchild | pete_, or type the first character then press tab if your irc client support it | 11:50 |
| pete_ | guys, I've found this suggestion for my card on the forum, ive had problems with the radeon driver. I recommend using the DRI | 11:51 |
| pete_ | driver. (You could try the glx driver if the dri for somereason doesnt | 11:51 |
| pete_ | work) | 11:51 |
| pete_ | how do I use the DRI driver? | 11:51 |
| Cryptorchild | pete_, what is your graphic card? | 11:52 |
| pete_ | "ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY" | 11:52 |
| pete_ | its drawing really slowly in Jaunty | 11:52 |
| pete_ | menus take a long time and scrolling in FFx sucks | 11:53 |
| arand | nikolas23: very unlikey I think... I'd still say you could try running fsck from a livecd (fsck -f to force even if it's marked as clean) | 11:53 |
| pete_ | Cryptorchild, any suggestions? | 11:53 |
| Cryptorchild | pete_, yeah ATI is shit in Jaunty, not all type working with ATI restricted driver | 11:54 |
| pete_ | so what do I do? | 11:54 |
| pete_ | how do I switch to DRI driver? | 11:54 |
| pete_ | or something else? | 11:54 |
| pete_ | sorry, am noob | 11:55 |
| diffred | how do I play 3gp videos in 9.04¿? | 11:55 |
| nikolas23 | arand: I will try what you said. It will sound funny, but if I moved the partition (with a livecd) to other disk sectors, will the disk errors dkms generated disappear? | 11:56 |
| pete_ | Cryptorchild, sorry, those questions were for you | 11:56 |
| pete_ | Cryptorchild, what am I meant to do now? | 11:56 |
| f1uxdude | I am quite impressed by the way ubuntu catches commands that do not exist and tells you what package you need to install. I have found the func that does this but can't see how it is called, anyone know? | 11:57 |
| arand | nikolas23: possibly, I don't really know... maybe the errors crop up in another application then... *really has no idea* | 11:57 |
| hhh | Can anyone know how to install matlab in ubuntu 8.0? | 11:58 |
| jrib | f1uxdude: read your /etc/bash.bashrc | 11:58 |
| grawity | f1uxdude: I think it is called automatically by bash as long as it has that name. | 11:58 |
| arand | nikolas23: If fsck runs good, I'd suspect something else than disk fail though... | 11:59 |
| bazhang | f1uxdude, command-not-found ? | 11:59 |
| nikolas23 | arand: oh, you think? I'm pissed off because I desperately wanted to get rid off Windows and all its problems, and now I think linux destroyed my hard disk and I may have to change it **pay**! god! | 11:59 |
| f1uxdude | grawity: cool, thanks | 11:59 |
| jrib | nikolas23: linux doesn't destroy hard disks... | 11:59 |
| f1uxdude | bazhang: yes I found it and it's func, but was not sure how bash actually called it when a command didn't exist | 11:59 |
| nikolas23 | arand: to speak the truth, I think I had tried fsck but it couldn't run because of disk errors. However, i'll try it again | 12:00 |
| nikolas23 | jrib: r u sure? | 12:00 |
| nikolas23 | jrib: in fact, i am total newbie and I may say nonsense | 12:00 |

| Fretegi | got 3 suspicious file types, look ok, but would like a second opinion if no one minds | 12:00 |
| arand | nikolas23: That's when it's good to run fsck from the outside, so to speak, livecd or otherwise. | 12:01 |
| pete_ | mzz, can you private message me when you look through it? | 12:01 |

| T3Roar | i'm not sure what's happened to my workspace settings | 12:04 |
| mzz | T3Roar: or you can click in the pager thing on the panel (add one if it's not there) | 12:04 |
| jrib | geophysics: change it to the number that corresponds to windows xp (or move windows xp to first in the list) | 12:05 |
| T3Roar | mzz: my panel has disappeared too! | 12:05 |
| mzz | nikolas23: there are ways to figure out where it's spending time (like "bootchart") but I can't walk you through them | 12:05 |
| mzz | T3Roar: start a new one | 12:05 |
| T3Roar | mzz: how? | 12:05 |
| geophysics | jrib: how can i know what number is related to xp | 12:05 |
| mzz | T3Roar: do you still have a terminal or a way to get one? Does alt+f2 still work? | 12:05 |
| jrib | geophysics: on your menu, count the lines starting at 0 | 12:05 |
| T3Roar | mzz: yes, i have the run box | 12:06 |
| geophysics | jrib: it sounds logical =) thanks | 12:06 |
| jrib | geophysics: it's probably better to make windows first though since the number of ubuntu options may change | 12:06 |
| mzz | T3Roar: run gnome-panel | 12:06 |

| T3Roar | mzz: i did and now it lets me switch between workspaces, but the panel is still hidden | 12:10 |
| kizza | but i get diffrent errors | 12:10 |
| T3Roar | mzz: is there a command to show the panel? | 12:10 |
| mzz | pete_: mmm, I wonder if a Virtual line forcing your max resolution to the panel's native (instead of 1600x1200) would help | 12:10 |
| mzz | T3Roar: I don't use gnome enough to find that one quickly | 12:10 |
| grawity | gnome-panel | 12:10 |
| T3Roar | grawity: i've tried gnome-panel, nothing happens :( | 12:11 |
| grawity | Try with --replace? | 12:11 |
| mzz | T3Roar: can you check if gnome-panel is running (launch gnome-system-monitor to check) | 12:11 |
| pete_ | mzz, how do i do that? | 12:11 |
| T3Roar | mzz: yes it is | 12:11 |
| mzz | T3Roar: the problem is I normally get at its configuration by right-clicking a blank spot on the panel, which is hard if there isn't one :) | 12:11 |
| grawity | pete_: ps ax | grep panel | 12:11 |
| mzz | pete_: sec, let me try to write one | 12:12 |
| T3Roar | mzz: it's just empty space and nothing happens when i right click anywhere on the background | 12:12 |
| T3Roar | mzz: i've just done gnome-panel --replace and it worked | 12:13 |

| linduxed | for some reason the keyboard shortcuts dialog lets me set custom commands to XF86AudioPlay (and other media keys like that), lists the correct key bound to the command, but the command never works when i actualli try to execute it | 12:17 |
| T3Roar | jdrib: thanks :) | 12:17 |

| mzz | Fretegi: those pulse ones are ignorable | 12:17 |
| mzz | Fretegi: if I read that correctly that's rkhunter not liking/knowing about shared mem sitting there | 12:18 |
| Fretegi | ok great, thanks for the confirmation, what are they caused by? | 12:18 |
| Fretegi | oh ok | 12:18 |
| jrib | linduxed: what does xev say about that key? If you set that key to that keysym using xmodmap does it then work? | 12:18 |
| mzz | Fretegi: google for "rkhunter /dev/shm/" for a second opinion | 12:19 |
| Fretegi | now, does rkhunter do anything if it finds anything? | 12:19 |
| nsadmin | dustybin: probably that discussion would be more effective if the maint were involved... it's probably brandon robinson | 12:19 |
| mzz | linduxed: is the problem with the media key or with the command? If you bind the command to something simple like ctrl+alt+m does it work? | 12:19 |
| mzz | Fretegi: sorry, I'm not actually familiar with it, so no clue | 12:20 |
| Fretegi | just finally came across a link on google that explained it a bit | 12:21 |
| Fretegi | apparently ur right, shared memory addressing and its a good thing, now worries, thanks tho | 12:21 |
| linduxed | mzz: jrib: the command is correct (mpc next) and if i bind it to something "non-XF86......" then it works | 12:21 |
| jrib | linduxed: ok, but that's not really what I said to do is it? | 12:22 |
| mzz | linduxed: that's very weird (you are binding by simply hitting that key, right?) | 12:22 |
| mzz | jrib: no, it's what I said to do. Sorry about that :) | 12:22 |
| linduxed | jrib: will check then | 12:22 |
| zzz | is there any command to know the nameserver ip address ? | 12:22 |
| Fretegi | is there a difference between ubuntu and ubuntu server? | 12:22 |
| mzz | linduxed: it's possible some running media player eats the key, but I don't understand why the keybinding manager still does pick it up | 12:22 |
| jrib | zzz: cat /etc/resolv.conf, there may be a better way... | 12:22 |
| zxd | Hi | 12:22 |
| zxd | Hi I am looking for a DHCP plugin for ppp | 12:23 |
| mzz | Fretegi: only in the default package set. You can convert one to the other post-install, I'm pretty sure. | 12:23 |
| jrib | mzz: that's a good guess | 12:23 |
| linduxed | mzz: yupp | 12:23 |
| gleeb_ | hey guys good afternoon... i got some simple question about ls command if someone can help me :) | 12:24 |
| mzz | gleeb_: just ask | 12:24 |
| gleeb_ | thnaks | 12:24 |
| gleeb_ | gimmi a sec to write :) | 12:24 |
| zzz | jrib, it's not displaying anything if i type cat /etc/resolve.conf | 12:24 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 12:24 |
| jrib | zzz: because that's not what I told you to type | 12:25 |
| Fretegi | odd, system monitor says intrepid, which i thougth i had, then my xorg.0.log says kernel 2.6.24-15 server | 12:25 |
| Fretegi | that normal | 12:25 |
| Fretegi | ? | 12:25 |
| linduxed | jrib: ok xev does pick it up (the XF86 keys in question have keycodes and keysyms), how do i set the "the key to that keysym using xmodmap"? | 12:25 |
| gleeb_ | when i do ls -l i get alot of information... if i add the -s attribute (which says that it gives me the size in blocks) i get another colums in the start with nubers that dont really match the "size in blocks they say" i can paste it if you would like to see | 12:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Fretegi: what does: lsb_release -c say? | 12:25 |
| jrib | linduxed: you don't have to if xev shows that, I think mzz is right | 12:25 |
| linduxed | mzz: nope, no media player eating keys now | 12:25 |
| zzz | jrib, i did this cat /etc/resolv.conf nothing happens | 12:25 |
| Morteza_K | hi,anyone can help me to make my wireless driver?make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-13-generic/pwd/Makefile'. Stop | 12:26 |
| jrib | linduxed: check for daemons/music players, kill them, see if it then works | 12:26 |
| jrib | zzz: really? | 12:26 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: sure: install pastebinit then pipe the output to pastebinit | 12:26 |
| Fretegi | just plain old intrepid, nice command, makin note of that one thanks | 12:26 |
| lat_ | Hi everyone! | 12:26 |
| mzz | jrib: if that's it I really don't understand why the keybinding editor still sees the key | 12:26 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: e.g. ls -ls | pastebinit | 12:26 |
| linduxed | jrib: mzz: the only musicplayer that could eat the keys would be rhythmbox, and its not even on | 12:26 |
| Morteza_K | hi anyone can help me to make wireless driver? | 12:27 |
| gleeb_ | ls -ls > example.txt? | 12:27 |
| painted | anyone wanna play yandere game? | 12:27 |
| gleeb_ | wont be better? | 12:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: is it internal or usb? | 12:27 |
| Fretegi | make a driver? folks in here do that? | 12:27 |
| Morteza_K | internal | 12:27 |
| zzz | jrib, yes, there is nothing in /etc/resolv.conf | 12:27 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: if you want, you are only going to paste bin the file so why not cut out the middle man | 12:27 |
| jrib | zzz: are you able to resolve domain names anyway? | 12:27 |
| lat_ | I have a printer driver I can't delete. Is there a solution | 12:28 |
| gleeb_ | sorry for the ignorance but what do you mean by "pasr bin" | 12:28 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: sudo apt-get install pastebinit; ls -ls > ~/example.txt; pastebinit ~/example.txt; rm ~/example.txt | 12:28 |
| gleeb_ | "past bin" sorry | 12:28 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: well you dont paste huge swathes of text in irc rooms | 12:28 |
| Morteza_K | ActionParsnip: actually it is an make error ,i did it before with a patch,but i cant now,cant find the patch | 12:28 |
| gleeb_ | i know... i'll just check it out see what i get :) | 12:29 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: so you use a pastebin, you can then fill the page with text and give us a very small link | 12:29 |
| zzz | jrib, no | 12:29 |
| gleeb_ | ohhh ok | 12:29 |
| gleeb_ | 1 sec then | 12:29 |
| jrib | zzz: ok, how are you connecting to the internet? | 12:29 |
| zzz | jrib, sudo pppoeconf | 12:29 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: if everyone pasted the text for people to view it would scroll the channel like crazy and be totally useless | 12:29 |
| jrib | zzz: hrmm, I know nothing about that. Does that use dhcp somehow? | 12:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: then pastebin the error you get, maybe someone can advise | 12:30 |
| zzz | jrib, i think so ,how do you connect to internet ? | 12:31 |
| arand | gleeb_: dunno if it's still relevant but ls -s seems to show in KB per default | 12:31 |
| jrib | zzz: I use a static ip with my router | 12:31 |

| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: i said pastebin | 12:31 |
| zzz | jrib, is your pc a router ? | 12:31 |
| jrib | zzz: no | 12:31 |
| zzz | jrib, is it broadband ? | 12:32 |
| gleeb_ | http://pastebin.com/f689705e2 the first row :) | 12:32 |

| Morteza_K | ActionParsnip: sorry,http://paste.ubuntu.com/216176/ | 12:33 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: see what Morteza_K just did, and how it scrolled the channel ;) | 12:33 |
| gleeb_ | yep | 12:33 |
| gleeb_ | i did paste mine :) | 12:33 |
| gleeb_ | <gleeb_> http://pastebin.com/f689705e2 the first row :) | 12:34 |

| gleeb_ | colums | 12:34 |
| jrib | zzz: no | 12:34 |
| jrib | zzz: (but you should) | 12:34 |
| zzz | jrib, where do you put static ip address ? | 12:34 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: mine shows 4 for the totals as well | 12:34 |
| gleeb_ | 1 block = 1024b? | 12:35 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: http://pastebin.com/f681c543a | 12:35 |
| jrib | zzz: I'm not on ubuntu atm | 12:35 |
| zzz | jrib, what do you mean ? aren't you in ubuntu now ? | 12:35 |
| arand | gleeb_: Like I said; ls -s seems to show in KB per default | 12:35 |
| jrib | zzz: I'm using a different distribution, but my setup is not really relevant here | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: the kernel source is already referenced, try just running make clean | 12:36 |
| mzz | zzz: just add a wired connection, the ipv4 tab has an option to enter a static ip | 12:36 |
| saif | ubuntu8.1 host +geust winxp on virtual box but cant make anetwork | 12:36 |
| gleeb_ | yep i see that | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: if you run: file /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-13-generic | 12:36 |
| zzz | jrib, which distribution ,fedora ? | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: does it say it is a folder? | 12:36 |
| gleeb_ | thanks i guess i was wrong when i checked it out... i see my mistake now. first column is the size in kb | 12:36 |
| gleeb_ | thanks you guys | 12:37 |
| Morteza_K | ActionParsnip: do u mean enter"make clean"? | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | gleeb_: no worries fellah | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: makes sense, yes | 12:37 |
| zzz | mzz, where is the ip4 tab ? | 12:37 |
| adante | how do i install security updates only? | 12:37 |
| mzz | zzz: to the right :) | 12:37 |
| mzz | zzz: are you using jaunty? | 12:38 |
| Morteza_K | ActionParsnip: make: *** No rule to make target `clean'. Stop. | 12:38 |
| saif | :( | 12:38 |
| saif | who use virtual box | 12:38 |
| mzz | Morteza_K: that normally means you're sitting in the wrong dir | 12:38 |
| mzz | saif: me | 12:38 |
| saif | mzz : can u help me | 12:38 |
| lat_ | When I try to delete an unused printer driver I get "403 Forbidden". Why | 12:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: have you read the install and readme files in the archive you extracted? | 12:39 |
| mzz | saif: lemme read scrollback | 12:39 |
| zzz | mzz, jaunty , | 12:39 |
| diegotiller | alguem ai fala portugues? | 12:39 |
| zzz | mzz, to the right top ? | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip | lat_: are you deleting it with sudo? | 12:39 |
| jrib | !pt | diegotiller | 12:39 |
| ubottu | diegotiller: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, #ubuntu-pt. Obrigado. | 12:39 |
| saif | mzz : iwant to make anetwork between ubuntu8.1 host and xp geyst | 12:39 |
| mzz | zzz: in the "Network connections" window make sure you're on the "Wired" tab and hit "Add" | 12:39 |
| Morteza_K | ActionParsnip: yes | 12:39 |
| mzz | zzz: the new window that appears should have an "IPv4 Settings" tab, among others | 12:39 |
| blackest_knight | Fretegi: well make , make install :) | 12:40 |
| mzz | zzz: if you switch to Method: Manual there you can manually configure ip addresses for the connection and dns | 12:40 |
| lat_ | ActionParsnip, no. How/ | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: where did you get the archive, i'll have a look at it | 12:40 |
| `dead | I tried to install it from Iso image using wubi. | 12:41 |
| * mzz actually thinks this network manager thing isn't terrible, even though he tends to use the cli himself so isn't quite the obvious target audience | 12:41 | |
| ActionParsnip | lat_: just add sudo to the front of the command you are issuing and it will be removed.make sure the printer has no waiting jobs | 12:41 |
| `dead | It says.. Input/Output error :/ | 12:41 |
| diegotiller | fala portugues ??? | 12:41 |
| diegotiller | jrib | 12:41 |
| Morteza_K | ActionParsnip: i ask it someone in #kernel,M=$pwd instead of M='pwd',and it worked,thanks | 12:41 |
| mzz | saif: in what direction? | 12:41 |
| alfacat | eu falo | 12:41 |
| mzz | saif: outbound connections should just work. Inbound ones take a little more setup. | 12:41 |
| saif | mzz : in both | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: you may want to tell the person who made the guide | 12:41 |
| zzz | mzz, i'm using automatic dhcp | 12:41 |
| jrib | diegotiller: /join #ubuntu-br | 12:41 |
| Fretegi | whats make make install? | 12:41 |
| mzz | zzz: oh, then I misunderstood the question. | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Morteza_K: so it can be updated to be correct | 12:41 |
| diegotiller | alfacat sabe usar as opções de rede do biglinux? | 12:42 |
| Fretegi | oh reference drivers? | 12:42 |
| mzz | saif: can the guest browse the internet? | 12:42 |
| zzz | mzz, i don't use broadband connection | 12:42 |
| saif | mzz : outbound = host to geust ? | 12:42 |
| saif | mzz : no | 12:42 |
| zzz | mzz, it's dial up connection | 12:42 |
| mzz | saif: weird, that should be working by default. | 12:42 |
| saif | mzz : i dont need internet on the guest | 12:42 |
| mzz | saif: the guest should be able to connect to the host and to anything the host itself can access, but by default the host and th outside world see the guest as sitting behind a NAT firewall | 12:43 |
| mzz | saif: the virtualbox manual covers this. What are you actually trying to do? | 12:43 |
| diegotiller | ai tu sabe usar as opções de rede do big linux? | 12:43 |
| mzz | diegotiller: english please | 12:43 |
| saif | mzz : i read it done every thing in it no use | 12:43 |
| lat_ | ActionParsnip, I've been using the cups web page utility. How do I determine what command to use from the command line/ | 12:43 |
| mzz | saif: what are you actually trying to do? What command or app is failing? | 12:44 |
| saif | mzz : simply aconnection between the host and geust | 12:44 |
| zzz | saif, what's the problem ? | 12:44 |
| mzz | saif: what kind of "Connection"? ssh? netcat? | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | lat_: gksudo firefox http://localhost:631 | 12:44 |
| zzz | saif, are you using broadband conneciton ? | 12:44 |
| mzz | zzz: this is a virtualbox question, the entire thing's local | 12:44 |
| saif | mzz: no commands | 12:45 |
| mzz | saif: what program then? | 12:45 |
| saif | mzz : just the network manager | 12:45 |
| mzz | saif: I'm pretty sure you shouldn't need to mess with network manager on the host, and I don't think XP has a thing called network manager | 12:45 |
| mzz | saif: again, what are you actually trying to accomplish? Transfer files? ssh connection? | 12:46 |
| saif | mzz: ping is not workin | 12:46 |
| mzz | "a connection" is horribly vague, a net connection is a means to an end | 12:46 |
| mzz | saif: that's normal, see the manual. | 12:46 |
| saif | mzz: i want to assign static ip to host and gues t | 12:46 |
| Dam0 | hello | 12:46 |
| lat_ | ActionParsnip, I still get 403 Forbidden | 12:46 |
| * mzz gives up | 12:46 | |
| Dam0 | how do i install the system info script for xchat? | 12:46 |
| saif | mzz :thanx | 12:47 |
| mzz | saif: (re)read the manual to see what your various options are. I can't debug if you won't tell me what task you're actually trying to accomplish. | 12:47 |
| * mzz is assuming you're not trying to communicate between the two by morse over ping :) | 12:47 | |
| saif | mzz : i `ll read again and comeback | 12:48 |
| saif | mzz : thanx | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | lat_: weird | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | lat_: is it not removable from the printer section i gnome settings | 12:49 |
| Dam0 | ow do i install the system info script for xchat? | 12:50 |
| uqs_ | How do I install the latest version of linux-ubuntu-modules? | 12:52 |
| kaveh | has anyone ever heard of installing ubuntu on one hard disc screwing up the resolution of a windows installation on a separate hard disc? | 12:52 |
| kaveh | a friend of mine had to reinstall his graphics drivers for windows after installing ubuntu on a second hard disc, i had not heard of this before i thought he probably did something very wrong | 12:53 |
| gilles | kaveh: Maybe some of his drivers were storedon the second hD | 12:55 |
| lat_ | ActionParsnip, sudo system-config-printer does not give me a delete choice. Same with gnome settings. That is true for this one driver only. The others I can delete. | 12:55 |
| grue9 | hi guys. i'm about to connect possibly broken hard drive into my pc. can it possibly damage mainboard? | 12:56 |
| Pidgin_ | is there any command to exit from irc ? | 12:56 |
| adante | how do i apply security updates only from the command line? | 12:56 |
| blackest_knight | kaveh: thats extremely unlikely the only thing which could happen is if the windows sys had c,d, and e drives and d was nuked to put ubuntu on the e drive would now be seen as d and that could confuse windows with paths being wrong | 12:56 |
| Pirate_Hunter | can someone tell me what is wrong with this command - sudo tune2fs -i 1m, trying to get tune2fs to check disk every month? | 12:56 |
| Tim183 | hi all, looking for some help configuring twinvior, can someone help pleaseew with a second monit | 12:56 |
| arand | Pidgin_: /commands | 12:57 |
| arand | Pidgin_: sorry nvm | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | lat_: try a reboot with the printer not attached | 12:57 |
| Night-Horse | I was wondering if it's possible to capture the audio input as raw bytes, something like cat /dev/audio > rawfile ?? | 12:57 |
| Pidgin_ | nvm | 12:57 |
| kaveh | hmm thanks gilles and blackest, i thought it would be along the lines of what gilles said, but when i checked it wasnt like taht, blackest what youre saying may be the case ill have a look for that | 12:57 |
| kaveh | thank you two | 12:57 |

| grue9 | Night-Horse, i think so. just how do you play it afterwards | 12:59 |
| lat_ | ActionParsnip, I did. It didn't help. The driver is not for my printer. I don't know how it got installed. | 12:59 |
| grue9 | i'm about to connect possibly broken hard drive into my pc. can it possibly damage mainboard? | 12:59 |
| Tim183 | every time I try o configure the monitors i get either the top or the bottom panel on one screen and the other on another screen | 13:00 |
| Pirate_Hunter | grue9, it can possibly do "possibly" | 13:00 |
| Night-Horse | grue9: It won't be actually media. I have a signal with 96k frequency that i wanted to see if i could capture it on my pc directly | 13:01 |
| lat_ | ActionParsnip, it just appeared one day, and has been causing problem ever since. | 13:01 |
| Tim183 | I would like both panels on one screen abd the other screen to just be extra space | 13:01 |
| Pirate_Hunter | can someone tell me what is wrong with this command - sudo tune2fs -i 1m, trying to get tune2fs to check my hard disks every month? | 13:01 |
| grue9 | Night-Horse, got an idea. i think you can replay it by catting it back into /dev/audio | 13:02 |
| uqs_ | how do I install the newest version of linux-ubuntu-modules for x64? | 13:02 |
| grue9 | 'kay, if my computer gets broken i'm blaminhg you. | 13:02 |
| lat_ | ActionParsnip, it is not set as default printer, but is always the driver pre-selected. | 13:02 |
| adante | how do i apply security updates only from the command line? | 13:02 |
| Night-Horse | grue9: That's true, if i could forward it to the actually receiver and it recognized it then i am in the right path. :) | 13:03 |
| Night-Horse | grue9: Just another question. what is the difference between /dev/audio and /dev/dsp ?? Cause i have seen some acting with /dev/audio and some with /dev/dsp | 13:04 |
| adante | how do i apply security updates only from the command line? | 13:05 |
| ActionParsnip | lat_: can you remove the driver with apt-get ? | 13:06 |
| arand | Pirate_Hunter: I'd guess you need to put down the device (/dev/sdx#) as well | 13:06 |
| mehdi | hi guys | 13:06 |
| mehdi | I need a proxi | 13:06 |
| ActionParsnip | adante: you woul dhave to comment out the lines in /etc/apt/sources.list that didnt relate to security then run sudo ap-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 13:06 |
| ActionParsnip | !proxy | mehdi | 13:07 |
| ubottu | mehdi: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as !TOR and web (Java, etc) gateways due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks. If you're using mibbit, please try joining #ubuntu again. Mibbit takes a long time to connect, so you may have missed a message to do this. | 13:07 |
| Pirate_Hunter | arand, thanks even knowing the man file doesn't state that *sigh* | 13:07 |
| adante | ActionParsnip: wow, kind of heavy handed there, ok | 13:07 |
| ActionParsnip | mehdi: you can use squid if you want to configure a proxy server | 13:07 |
| advorak | g | 13:08 |
| ActionParsnip | adante: its the only way I can think to do it | 13:08 |
| jrib | Pirate_Hunter: it does :) | 13:08 |
| ActionParsnip | adante: why not just install all the stuff from apt-get upgrade? | 13:08 |

| davi | grawity, In Jaunty I am typing my account password to execute "sudo ls" and it ask again to try. That is to say, it is not working! Is it possible? | 13:52 |
| gabkdlly | MindVirus: not sure, but it may have to do with the 5% (or so) reserved for root on the filesystem | 13:53 |
| Pirate_Hunter | guntbert, nothign is the matter the user is new i just to add them to groups so they have access to audio etc but remove access to things like sudo etc | 13:53 |
| Morteza_K1 | C-S-B: your key is WPA? | 13:53 |
| gabkdlly | MindVirus: available is probably what you are interested in | 13:53 |
| C-S-B | Morteza_K yes, Ive also used open and wep. | 13:53 |
| MindVirus | gabkdlly, that's a brilliant point. | 13:53 |
| Pirate_Hunter | guntbert, the thing is adding a user was easy its the other parts that i am finding difficult | 13:53 |
| MindVirus | gabkdlly, thanks. | 13:53 |
| C-S-B | morteza_K if you left click the nm-applet is the enable wireless box ticked? | 13:54 |
| gabkdlly | MindVirus: you can actually configure this at the time of partition | 13:54 |
| done365 | If anyone could help me find the kids pictures before the wife wakes up that would be great | 13:54 |
| MindVirus | gabkdlly, I don't really mind -- I was just curious. They seemed like the same damn thing. | 13:54 |
| guntbert | Pirate_Hunter: to prevent him from using sudo remove him from the admin group | 13:54 |
| MindVirus | gabkdlly, now, I can't configure it? | 13:54 |
| guntbert | Pirate_Hunter: where he shouldn't be by default anyway :-) | 13:55 |
| Morteza_K1 | C-S-B: no | 13:55 |
| ubuntufreak | Anyways to install the drivers for my ATI Mobility radeon HD 4570 in DELL Studio 15 laptop for Ubuntu 9.0 | 13:55 |
| Morteza_K1 | C-S-B: sorry yes | 13:55 |
| gabkdlly | MindVirus: I don't think so. Anyway, I think there are good reasons to have the 5% reserved | 13:55 |
| Pirate_Hunter | guntbert, yup but i dont know how to do that through cli i thought command adduser would give me these options | 13:56 |
| MindVirus | gabkdlly, of course. | 13:56 |
| MindVirus | gabkdlly, the deal is, I have a drive that is not for root at all. | 13:56 |

| LInux | lol but what adoubt acid dvdripped? | 13:59 |
| Pirate_Hunter | guntbert, ooooh id is handy nope not in root still would i be able to log into my account through that account if i needed to do something in root without being forced to logout | 14:00 |

| done365 | C-S-B: I can see the drive in kdiskfree, but cant navigate it in file manager | 14:03 |
| Pirate_Hunter | guntbert, what i meant is i aint in root but if i ever need to use root access could i do it through that account either by using sudo -u [user with root access] | 14:03 |
| deany | LInux, depends on your knowledge | 14:03 |
| LInux | how do i make it avi it dooesnt give me the option | 14:03 |
| MindVirus | Any suggestions, anyone? | 14:03 |
| deany | LInux, its a gui, so is simple enough.. | 14:03 |
| MindVirus | For some reason, pulseaudio is not starting with my session. Should I add it to Startup Applications? | 14:03 |

| triplc | mobi-sheep: Oh. So installing package "linux-image....-server" is ok? | 14:06 |
| guntbert | Pirate_Hunter: for that you could use su pirate_h (with your password, and then sudo....) | 14:06 |
| ubuntufreak | mobi-sheep: whats the difference bw 32-bit and 64-bit | 14:06 |
| triplc | ok, let me read the webpage you give me and see how | 14:07 |
| Morteza_K | C-S-B: hi,it doesnt work | 14:07 |
| mobi-sheep | ubuntufreak: You take full advantage of your processors. I'll get you link. | 14:07 |
| Pirate_Hunter | guntbert, thats what i needed to know, I aint too sure which groups to add my new user to, audio, disk etc are fairly simple but what about daemons would users need access to that? | 14:07 |
| ubuntufreak | mobi-sheep: yeah sure | 14:08 |
| edgar207 | is there a possiblity to install gnome from the terminal in offline mode? | 14:08 |
| ikonia | edgar207: not without a cd | 14:08 |
| mobi-sheep | ubuntufreak, triplc: If you're running 32bit when your machine is 64-bit capable. You're just robbing the half of the treads. There are 64bit treads in 64bit-processors and you'd be only using half of it. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/32bit_and_64bit | 14:08 |
| edgar207 | and with cd | 14:08 |
| ikonia | edgar207: then yes | 14:09 |
| gabkdlly | MindVirus: if, for example, you have a 1TB drive dedicated to /home/, or so, you can probably allocate less than 5% to root | 14:09 |
| oskar- | ubuntufreak: 64 instead of 32 bit word width, which means more addressable memory, but: larger executables, less efficient cache usage, slower execution of the same programs | 14:09 |
| MindVirus | gabkdlly, I have an 80GB drive dedicated to being my ~/Downloads folder. | 14:09 |
| guntbert | Pirate_Hunter: I suppose the most important groups are already there - but to add more groups you have two ways: user chmod (look at the man page) OR edit /etc/groups (each group has the accounts listed which are mebers of it) | 14:10 |
| gabkdlly | MindVirus: keep in mind, though, that if you go with 0%, and your drive fills up, there will be a lot fragmentation, which will affect read/write times | 14:10 |
| cemc | I have Juanty running with dual head and gnome, with two screens :0.0 and :0.1 (no xinerama). why do windows keep appearing on the first display even when I start them on the second? | 14:10 |
| cemc | it used to work | 14:10 |
| ubuntufreak | oskar: if i install a 64-bit os, is it possible to install apps as in 32-bit one ? | 14:10 |
| MindVirus | gabkdlly, good point, again. | 14:10 |
| edgar207 | and how do I install it with the CD | 14:10 |
| ikonia | edgar207: just enable the cd as repo in system->administration->software sources and install it as normal | 14:11 |
| oskar- | ubuntufreak: i have not yet used a 64 bit os | 14:11 |
| ubuntufreak | oskar: ok | 14:11 |
| edgar207 | I only have Terminal (secure-mode) | 14:11 |
| ikonia | edgar207: then enable the cd in /etc/apt/sources.list and install as normal | 14:11 |

| Pirate_Hunter | guntbert, yup i know but it became frustrating deleting 8.04 desktop packages to get server only that i had | 14:16 |
| ikonia | edgar207: ok - well, find that line, remove the "#" symbol from the line, do "sudo apt-get update" , then do "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" | 14:16 |
| edgar207 | how do I edit the sourcelist | 14:17 |
| ikonia | edgar207: any text editor you are comfortable with | 14:17 |
| guntbert | Pirate_Hunter: its ok with me, as long as you are aware of the risks... | 14:17 |
| edgar207 | never used one before | 14:17 |

| guntbert | done365: ubottu is a bot :-) | 14:17 |
| edgar207 | ed ist one, right? | 14:17 |
| ikonia | edgar207: before you try then I suggest you read up on a simple editor like "nano" as grawity suggested | 14:17 |
| grawity | I really wouldn't recommend ever trying ed. | 14:18 |
| Pirate_Hunter | guntbert, oh yeah definitely | 14:18 |
| guntbert | Pirate_Hunter: ;-) | 14:18 |
| grawity | edgar207: nano is the easiest. (the most popular ones are vim and emacs, but they aren't installed by default, and they aren't that easy to use) | 14:18 |
| edgar207 | thanks a lot. | 14:19 |
| shivek | Hi everyone | 14:21 |
| shivek | I've just downloaded a package. Its something related to icon appearance(mashup..something) can anyone tell how to install it ?? | 14:22 |
| ikonia | shivek: what is the package name | 14:22 |
| C-S-B | Morteza_K: ok, back for the moment | 14:23 |
| supersasho | hello.. is there a gui application for managing ftpserver, something like filezilla server? | 14:24 |
| shivek | ikonia: its "[ubuntu.hamdi.web.id]-Mashup-MaXo1.1.tar.gz" | 14:24 |
| ikonia | shivek: that's not a package, thats a tar file | 14:24 |
| shivek | ikonia:whatever | 14:24 |
| ikonia | shivek: if you untar it (think zip file) you'll normally find install instructions inside it in a README file | 14:24 |
| ikonia | shivek: it's quite important that's it's not a package so not "whatever" - if you don't think it matters, get on with installing it | 14:25 |
| ForzaPalermo | hey guys should checking for bad blcoks (read only test) take days to finish? | 14:25 |

| syrinx | thanks ikonia... I've been waiting for the update mgr to say it's available | 14:29 |
| shivek | but .zip is a wndows format I suppose. ! | 14:29 |
| ikonia | shivek: it's not a zip file | 14:29 |

| shivek | ikonia:But you said think it as its a zip file. | 14:29 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ikonia, server no gui | 14:29 |

| homovitruvius | which channel would be best for metacity help? | 15:20 |
| SuperMiguel | #metacity :) | 15:20 |
| soreau | watson516: Hardware Drivers (jockey) should have installed the driver for you but now that you're manually installing no telling what it's doing. Use Driver "nv" in xorg.conf to get into a 'failsafe' X session so you can easier fix it | 15:21 |
| homovitruvius | yep, I've founded that one by going there this morning, but it seems like it would be only me. Is there a real metacity channel on freenode? | 15:21 |

| der_On | hello again. Does anybody know why I can't save any settings in any application? Seems like it has something to do with permissions. | 15:26 |
| soreau | uqs: I must say, I don't think it's standard for make to try and probe a module while installing it.. does 'sudo insmod /lib/modules/2.6.28-13-generic/kernel/drivers/ssound/ctxfi.ko' give the same error? | 15:27 |
| legend2440 | Pirate_Hunter: looks like permissions problem did you use sudo with the command? | 15:28 |

| soreau | johnw: In here please | 15:29 |
| uqs | soreau, so it's creative's screw up... great... thanks for all the help anyway :) | 15:30 |
| soreau | uqs: Usually, that error means the module was compiled against a different kernel from that of what is running currenty | 15:30 |
| soreau | johnw: In here please | 15:30 |

| watson516 | I have set the driver to nv in xorg.conf, I tried the Hardware Drivers again to enable the recommended nvidia driver, it downloaded and installed and says I need to restart...I restarted and I get the error and I have to reset the xorg.conf file | 15:32 |
| soreau | uqs: That source may be intended for a different kernel version from that of which you're using | 15:32 |
| soreau | watson516: the error? | 15:32 |
| watson516 | soreau: It just told me to check to make sure I have an nvidia card installed | 15:32 |
| uqs | soreau, I see. Well there weren't any option for different kernels. and since my on-board audio refuse to work aswell I guess I still have many hours of searchin to do until I get this to work | 15:33 |
| soreau | watson516: What told you this? | 15:33 |
| der_On | soreau: thanks allot. worked like a charm | 15:33 |
| watson516 | soreau: a box popped up when the xserver failed to load | 15:33 |
| soreau | uqs: Sorry man, wish I could help more | 15:33 |
| soreau | watson516: Since you already tried to install manually, you probably need to undo whatever it did. I think the command is with the 'nvidia-blah-blah.run --uninstall' then use ubuntus installer | 15:34 |
| boozler | How do I hide partition mounts in the side menu of nautilus | 15:34 |

| jinxx | Hi, I'm having a problem very frequently when I try to start my Ubuntu machine... basically before it gets to GDM, the machine locks up unless I go into recovery mode and do xfix before going to GDM (and sometimes even that fails)... is there any way to fix this? | 15:36 |
| watson516 | soreau: It says, bash: NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.29-pkg1.run: command not found | 15:36 |
| soreau | watson516: You're not running it right. Prefix the command with sh | 15:37 |

| Ramonster | need to get to the svn/trunk folder | 15:39 |
| soreau | ScottG: That's a good question ;) | 15:39 |
| kawuno | ScottG: xclip | 15:40 |
| ScottG | soreau: Fo sho | 15:40 |
| ScottG | kawuno: Sounds fake. You made that up | 15:40 |
| soreau | ScottG: Probably get better response in ##linux though | 15:40 |
| Ramonster | soreau: used the command: svn co svn://www.arcemu.info/svn/ -r 2337 - now i need to get into that folder | 15:40 |
| kawuno | ScottG: why should I | 15:40 |
| kawuno | ScottG: xclip - command line interface to X selections (clipboard) | 15:40 |
| Ramonster | soreau: never mind. found it :) | 15:40 |
| ScottG | kawuno: haha im just messing with you, ill look around for it | 15:40 |
| soreau | Ramonster: That command downloads to CWD, the Current Working Directory | 15:41 |
| ScottG | kawuno: Thanks! | 15:41 |
| armence | So, where can I download the source code for my kernel? | 15:41 |
| kawuno | ScottG: np | 15:41 |
| kawuno | armence: kernel.org ? | 15:41 |
| soreau | armence: Install the linux-source package | 15:41 |
| armence | soreau: thanks | 15:41 |
| Ramonster | soreau: Oh, allright. thanks | 15:41 |
| icehawk78 | If I run the memtest and my computer immediately reboots after less than a second (too fast for me to see anything on screen) does that mean my memory is broke? | 15:41 |
| soreau | armence: It will download a tarball and place it into /usr/src for you to extract | 15:41 |
| bullgard4 | soreau: It is not so easy to determine "the" driver kernel code. There are several which I could think of. Which driver do you mean exactly? | 15:42 |
| armence | soreau: thanks | 15:42 |
| soreau | bullgard4: This really has nothing to do with ubuntu directly. Try ##kernel or ##linux | 15:42 |
| soreau | icehawk78: Not necessarily, but that's probably not a good sign unless you have a super fast computer with little or no memory installed :) | 15:43 |
| oskar- | icehawk78: perhaps, but also the memtest image could be corrupted | 15:43 |

| soreau | ahattar: idk, try ##networking maybe | 15:45 |
| soreau | nickkontos: What happened exactly? | 15:45 |
| icehawk78 | soreau: Not so much. I borrowed a 1 GB stick from my girlfriend over the weekend and am trying to get my laptop to boot up now with my own memory (either two 256 MB sticks, or a 1 GB stick that I think is dying), and it won't boot past grub (sits there indefinitely at a blinking _). | 15:46 |

| nickkontos | soreau: photorec managed to rescue my files saving them in my external disk, I could actually see my pictures, video and hear my mp3s but it did't restore their filenames (personaly i can't understand why a program that is so powerful that can restore files from a bad partition doesn't restore their filenames..) | 16:09 |

| pronoy | hi i tried lkl keylogger on ubuntu and its working but keyboard input goes nuts....how can i fix this | 16:09 |

| nickkontos | is there any other prog that I can use? | 16:10 |
| soreau | nickkontos: Yea, really sounds like a bad disc | 16:10 |
| edbian | Guest70291: The funny thing about flash is you have to remove all the flash related packages (the free and non free and old) in order to ensure that the one you want is running. "completely remove" everything that's listed and installed. | 16:10 |
| edbian | Guest70291: Give me a quick list of what those packages are as well. | 16:10 |
| Guest70291 | edbian, should i go to theadobe website and install theiirs? | 16:11 |
| andreo_ | oskar-: cannot execute binary file error | 16:11 |
| edbian | Guest70291: I don't think you need to. Let's use the adobe flash 10 that's in the repos first and if that doesn't work go to the website. Always try and use repo software first. | 16:11 |
| edbian | Guest70291: Did you purge all the flash packages? | 16:11 |
| ahattar | hi there have a problem with 9.04 {SIOCADDRT: No such process} | 16:12 |

| ahattar | any idea? | 16:12 |
| edbian | Guest70291: Alright the one we want to install is called "flashplugin-nonfree" There is a meta package called "flash-plugin installer" or something which simply points to flashplugin-nonfree. | 16:12 |

| Pirate_Hunter | ortsvorsteher, i did but the file still couldnt be used by the system, this how the original looks -rw-r--r-- and the siymlink once i chown just becomes bid:bind rwrwrwrwrw which is incorrect | 16:30 |

| meowww | edbian, yeah i will do that | 16:31 |

| MK13 | edbian, whaty is meowww trying to do? | 16:31 |
| ortsvorsteher | Pirate_Hunter: i just read the man page of ln. but still, i cannot follow you why you want to change anything of an symbolic link | 16:31 |
| iluminator101 | can someone tell me whats server they using for pidgin yahoo | 16:31 |
| nickkontos | *for ext2/ext3/ext4 partitions | 16:31 |
| edbian | meowww: I think you have errors on the disk. Windows usually will boot ignoring them (which is stupid) but if you stumble upon the files that were / are corrupted the system will crash. Often times windows system files are corrupted and the system won't boot. You're lucky. | 16:32 |
| meowww | edbian, i will run a checkdisk and report back | 16:32 |
| edbian | MK13: When he plugs in his second HDD he can't boot linux (on his first drive) Or from a CD or DVD or a USB key. | 16:32 |

| Pirate_Hunter | ortsvorsteher, because bind9 wont work when it tries to access the file from /etc/bind/, this is from ssylog http://paste.ubuntu.com/216255/, and if i ls -l the permissions ddont match the original file | 16:33 |

| ortsvorsteher | Pirate_Hunter: may you make an su to user bind. after that, set your umask to 0002 and then create the link. first, try it to link something in /tmp or to /tmp as an test | 16:39 |
| nickkontos | yes | 16:39 |
| bazhang | sage_, stop that | 16:39 |

| axos88 | hello! I have a little bit older system (750MHz duron, w/ 756MB RAM), and it runs ubuntu 8.04 very very slowly. What do you recommend me to do? upgrade to a newer version, or it would be better to downgrade? | 16:44 |
| bruenig | axos88: different distro | 16:44 |
| matt__ | when altering laptop brightness or audio volume, popups appear (presumably using gnomes new notification system). but they have a predetermined amount of levels. i want to reduce this number. | 16:44 |
| ikonia | axos88: upgrading should be fine, just disable services you don't need | 16:44 |
| ortsvorsteher | Pirate_Hunter: there is nothing described as which user you have to do the step. is there a user bind in /etc/passwd ? | 16:44 |
| ecko2056 | axos88: Slackware | 16:44 |
| ubuntistas | does anyone know a good notification software fro mail clients? | 16:44 |
| Skaperen | Slackware is KDE based | 16:45 |
| soreau | nickkontos: You might try running fdisk to check and possibly repair it manually | 16:45 |
| ikonia | ubuntistas: most mail clients have task bar notification in, can you be more specific | 16:45 |
| nickkontos | soreau: but it is! i've seen it! i've done it! I what i didn't manage to rescue is the filenames of my files... only that is missing. I bet there is the technology/knowledge outhere | 16:45 |
| ikonia | nickkontos: what do you want to know / | 16:45 |
| damagednoob | matt__, sorry, not sure how to do that | 16:45 |
| axos88 | bruenig, ecko2056, my mother uses the computer, so I can't really change distro, she accomodates to new things very slowly | 16:45 |
| bruenig | ubuntistas: shouldn't mail clients themselves have notification | 16:45 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ortsvorsteher, there is a user bind in that file and in groups which is what ive been looking in | 16:45 |
| twig11 | How can I troubleshoot a USB wireless card that was up and running until a reboot. I installed windows drivers with ndiswrapper, iwconfig shows me wlan0 with the correct ESSID, but sudo dhclient wlan0 isn't getting me on the network. What next? | 16:45 |
| ortsvorsteher | Pirate_Hunter: did you see at the next steps after creating the link, you have to change ownership on the directorys? | 16:45 |
| nickkontos | soreau: already used fsck - it just looped indefenetly restarting all over again | 16:46 |
| grawity | 'mutt' doesn't have notifications :/ | 16:46 |
| ikonia | axos88: stay on 8.04 - it has lts support | 16:46 |
| ubuntistas | i mean notification for mail like gmail notify | 16:46 |
| ecko2056 | axos88 i understand | 16:46 |
| ikonia | ubuntistas: most clients have that built in | 16:46 |
| ubuntistas | as well i want for msn and yahoo | 16:46 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ortsvorsteher, i followed it to the end its on init.d start command that it fails with wrong permission due to ln-s | 16:46 |
| richardcavell | axos88: I reckon downgrade or go to a different distribution | 16:46 |
| matt__ | damagednoob: thanks anyway. i've tried google searching my problem, but dont really know how to phrase to bring up anything relevant. | 16:46 |
| nickkontos | soreau: I want to know what rescue programs are there for ext4 so i can test them | 16:46 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ortsvorsteher, bind:x:106:115::/var/cache/bind:/bin/false that is how it looks in passwd | 16:46 |
| coolbhavi | strange problem http://pastebin.com/m23761330 but look at this: http://pastebin.com/m46a52f41 | 16:46 |
| ikonia | nickkontos: if you don't have the knowledege to research them, you certainly won't have to use them | 16:47 |
| soreau | nickkontos: fdisk is the rescue program. You could try mounting it without the -t ext4 to let it guess itself | 16:47 |
| axos88 | richardcavell, ecko2056 ikonia , i heard jaunty was made for speed, or it only applies, for newer systems? | 16:47 |
| coolbhavi | I ve imported the keys | 16:47 |
| ortsvorsteher | Pirate_Hunter: okay, so you cannot su to user bind cause of false shell. but, do you know which permissions the link has to have? | 16:47 |
| coolbhavi | yet its saying not found | 16:47 |
| ikonia | axos88: it won't really effect your resources, | 16:48 |
| nickkontos | soreau: yeah, already done that.. : mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 16:48 |
| ecko2056 | Any help? Trying to set up a ATI Radeon x1950 Pro in 9.04, I have 2 DVI outputs and an svideo. I can only get my desktop displayed on the DVI outputs. How would i change this to SVideo? | 16:48 |
| soreau | nickkontos: Then I don't know what else to tell you, sorry | 16:48 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ortsvorsteher, nope i was thinking it would've been the same of when i moved the folder from /etc/bind to /var/lib/bind9/etc/ | 16:48 |
| nickkontos | soreau: I have some knowledge to research them - the problem is I don't have the time! I have to deliver this laptop this evening! | 16:49 |
| ortsvorsteher | Pirate_Hunter: sorry, i forgot which permissions /var/lib/bind9/etc has. can you repeat them to me? | 16:49 |
| nickkontos | soreau: so that's why I here.. | 16:49 |

| Depeche | axos88, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-ubuntu-904-persistent-install-windows/ | 17:24 |
| axos88 | Depeche, then put it in the drive when you boot the computer (when you start it) | 17:24 |
| vinicius | fccf, it can boot from CD, so it can obviously read a cd | 17:24 |
| Maximo | bazhang: sorry naive thingy...but what is that --->.pls link.....thanks | 17:24 |
| ikonia | pronoy: there isn't much info on it | 17:24 |
| stefg | meowww: hmm... that's not too old. But i'd still check the cabling, jumpers anf all the hardware related stuff. a bad cable or broken controller chip can pull down the whole bus, so other (working) drives are not working, too | 17:25 |
| Skaperen | meowww: your BIOS has some strangeness in its boot order arrangements (many do) | 17:25 |
| supersasho | ikonia: ps aux | grep pureadmin .. no result so i asume it is not started.. | 17:25 |

| bazhang | Maximo, or whatever site you are trying to listen to; typically playlists will have format .pls | 17:25 |
| ikonia | supersasho: a reasonable assumption | 17:25 |
| axos88 | Depeche, why did u send that to me? | 17:25 |
| Maximo | ok | 17:25 |
| fccf | vinicius: mine will boot from cd ... then drop to busybox... unless I use the generic ... not sure ... do you know if you have SATA or IDE harddrives? | 17:25 |

| adam35413_ | I am trying to use smbclient to connect to a windows share from my ubuntu box. I can connect to my laptop fine, but my desktop gives me a "session setup failed: SUCCESS - 0" error. Does anyone have a suggestion for debugging? Random thought: the user name of the windows machine that doesn't work is the same username of the linux machine I am connecting from. Could that be an issue? | 17:25 |
| pronoy | ikonia there is however another software called uberkey which has almost the same code as lkl...can you take a look at that..i'll pastebin the code if you want | 17:26 |
| ikonia | pronoy: no thanks | 17:26 |
| axos88 | Depeche, gtg | 17:26 |
| supersasho | ikonia: i've just installed pureftp, and started it for the first time and it has given me this error, so yes a reasonable one :) | 17:26 |
| Skaperen | meowww: can you try connecting the other hard drive on sata1 or sata2 to see if that affects it? | 17:27 |
| ikonia | supersasho: does "ps -ef | grep ftp" show anything ? | 17:27 |
| twig11 | coleys: deleting it doesn't seem to be working, but is that really going to cause a problem, since I have been online with this card already? It's just quit working since reboot. | 17:27 |
| pronoy | ikonia btw where i can find my keyboard device file ? i can't find it in /dev/input/even(all of them) | 17:27 |
| stefg | adam35413_: is that jaunty? the 'ufw' firewall package is known to set up some stupid firewall rules preventing samba servers to show up | 17:27 |
| vinicius | fccf, not sure... ill check on the bios | 17:27 |
| meowww | Skaperen, it was previously connected to sata1, it was not working, so shifted to sata3, no good | 17:27 |
| ikonia | pronoy: depends on the tyupe of keyboard device it is | 17:27 |
| pronoy | ikonia ps/2 | 17:27 |
| meowww | i dont understand the errors also, pretty weird errors | 17:27 |
| coleys | twig11: Well anyways, check to see if your wireless is up. | 17:27 |
| ikonia | should be in /dev/input/event | 17:27 |
| Skaperen | meowww: so linux has trouble with the 120G drive no matter where it is connected? | 17:28 |

| ikonia | supersasho: oh, I see the bug report | 17:34 |
| c3o | that so cool it think | 17:34 |
| twig11 | coleys: it appears to be doing the same as before; 1 packets transmitted, 0 received, +1 errors, 100% packet loss, time 0ms. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. | 17:34 |
| ikonia | c3o: you have been told how to use the package manager | 17:34 |
| bazhang | !xampp > c3o | 17:34 |
| ubottu | c3o, please see my private message | 17:34 |
| meowww | Skaperen, ok, but is there any way i can full format this harddrive? | 17:34 |
| iceroot | c3o: man apt-get | 17:34 |
| ikonia | c3o: you install/uninstall each package the same | 17:35 |

| c3o | wowo | 17:35 |
| c3o | thanks ikonia | 17:35 |
| stefg | adam35413_: actually true. have you already tried using the ip intsead of hostname ? | 17:35 |
| c3o | am new for linux | 17:35 |
| Skaperen | meowww: sure ... but if only Windows will boot with the drive attached, then you have to use Windows to do it | 17:35 |
| Maximo | bazhang: try this one http://www.superkfm.net/ and click shaded picture top right.. | 17:35 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: yup. I can hit both the name and the ip fine with ping | 17:35 |
| meowww | Skaperen, ok will try that, thanks for your help :) | 17:35 |
| fccf | c3o: what is your native language? | 17:35 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: (I have an entry in the etc/hosts file for the ip) | 17:35 |
| stefg | adam35413_: but the samba name resolution might not work... | 17:36 |
| c3o | sorry all | 17:36 |
| vinicius | fccf, how can i enable the generc mode? | 17:36 |
| vinicius | *generic | 17:36 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: if that were the issue then using the IP would remove that step | 17:36 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: And the IP fails | 17:36 |
| c3o | sorry fccf, am not clear with english langued... | 17:36 |
| Skaperen | meowww: I have no idea how to make Windows do that ... I'd be trying harder to make it work in Linux if I had it ... and I'd be doing a lot of ways such as putting the SATA drive in a SATA/USB interface box, so it shows up on the computer as USB | 17:36 |
| adam35413_ | as well | 17:36 |
| Skaperen | meowww: then I could plug it in after Linux is up | 17:37 |
| fccf | c3o: what Language??? | 17:37 |
| stefg | adam35413_: ok, so that's ruled out | 17:37 |
| c3o | brother.. am looking a tutor for install opacial on linux (ubuntu) with xampp | 17:37 |
| c3o | am used indonesia languad | 17:37 |
| twig11 | coleys: this is very frustrating; before I rebooted, everything was working. gogeta coached me through setting up ndiswrapper to run on startup and everything else that should be necessary. Unfortunately I forgot to save a transcript of that chat so I can't go back and consult it. | 17:37 |
| karolis | www.tibikra.mainai.net | 17:37 |
| becomingGuru | what is the simple bash ftp command to ftp a folder. | 17:37 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: "home-server:~$ smbclient -L 192.168.1.50 -U test1%test | 17:37 |
| adam35413_ | session setup failed: SUCCESS - 0" | 17:37 |
| fccf | vinicius: when you get to the pretty page where it asks for language you can add other options to the boot line ... add all-ide-generic | 17:37 |

| meowww | Skaperen, I want to make it work with ubuntu, I think its a case of partition going when the power failed, I am ready to full format it, just that no bootable cds dvs booted, will try windows installation disk to format it, lets see if it boots atleast | 17:38 |
| c3o | thanks borhter thanks | 17:38 |

| Skaperen | meowww: how long did you allow a boot to wait ... sometimes things start working after a LONG wait time (for example a dozen bad I/O requests each doing a 3 minute timeout ... system comes up after 40 minutes) | 17:39 |
| c3o | am love this chanell than ubuntu-id | 17:40 |
| c3o | :( | 17:40 |

| grawity | c3o: well, speak English then. | 17:40 |
| c3o | i will try brother... | 17:40 |
| stefg | adam35413_: nothing particular coming to my mind.... i simply used ebox to do all the samba setup for me (and having a webgui for my server), so i never dove down deep into samba conf on hardy | 17:40 |
| c3o | grawity | 17:40 |
| Skaperen | c3o: people in this channel do not know the indonesia language ... if they knew it they would be on #ubuntu-id | 17:40 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: Ebox? | 17:41 |
| stefg | !ebox | 17:41 |

| c3o | am have open a terminal bazhang | 17:42 |
| ikonia | supersasho: a most interesting problem you found | 17:42 |
| amathis | sorry, i'm not sure if anyone caught my question but.. are external usb hard drive's supported by ubuntu? | 17:42 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: Oh, its an actual OS based on ubuntu | 17:43 |
| stefg | adam35413_: it's a complete server solution for hardy... apt-get install ebox-samba .... have a samba-server ready :-) | 17:43 |
| bazhang | c3o, then type this: sudo apt-get update | 17:43 |
| Skaperen | c3o: wait for people to come to #ubuntu-id later | 17:43 |
| coleys | amathis: Yes. | 17:43 |
| amathis | coleys, thanks | 17:43 |
| stefg | adam35413_: but use the ppa from the developer | 17:43 |
| ftab | I am trying to create a private key of my local host, and then copy the id_dsa.pub to the remote server .ssh/authorized_keys folder, but its not working | 17:43 |
| c3o | am have done brother bazhang for sudo apt-get update | 17:43 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: I'll try installing the ebox-samba and see what happens. ppa? | 17:43 |
| c3o | but for what | 17:43 |
| Skaperen | c3o: if everyone leaves #ubuntu-id when they see no people, then everyone will see no people ... so stay there until someone comes in | 17:44 |
| bazhang | c3o, you want to install lamp right? | 17:44 |
| chupy | i buy a eeepc 100he i installed ubuntu but now i want to sell it so i put the recovery mode and it gives me now grub error 22 what can i do? | 17:44 |
| stefg | adam35413_: personal package archive ... the developer maintains newer packages that are in the default hardy repo | 17:44 |
| c3o | am have install lampp on ubuntu | 17:44 |

| tbtroj | Can anyone help me to install Tahoma and Helvetica fonts on Ubuntu? (They are not included in the msttcorefonts) | 17:47 |
| Maximo | bazhang: you have some good news for me...if I will dashit | 17:48 |
| stefg | adam35413_: no, the ebox-samba package will pull smab anyway as dependency... it's just that you need to configure it again with ebox's webgui | 17:48 |
| vinicius | fccf, ok... that actually didnt work | 17:48 |
| bazhang | Maximo, that site would not load | 17:48 |
| coleys | twig11: lspci |grep -i network (pastebin output for me) | 17:48 |
| fccf | vinicius: worth a try | 17:48 |
| vinicius | fccf, but now at least dmesg stops in a different level | 17:48 |
| vinicius | fccf, when it detects usb slots | 17:48 |
| Maximo | bazhang: second one gave you http://www.superkfm.net/ click picture top right to listen | 17:49 |

| c3o | yo maximo, bazhang is cool brother.. | 17:50 |
| c3o | :) | 17:50 |
| Guest18139 | well i am not sure what thay are all for so i was just asking | 17:50 |
| bazhang | c3o, what is opacial | 17:50 |
| twig11 | coleys: is that command lspci-space ell-grep or pipe-grep? | 17:51 |
| c3o | the catalog cms | 17:51 |
| bazhang | Guest18139, ubuntu-restricted-extras for codecs | 17:51 |
| Maximo | c3o: did not say any different (agreed).... | 17:51 |
| stefg | adam35413_: yes, that's why i suggested to just install ebox-samba ... it's modular, so installing ebox will give you a mail-server and the kitchen-sink, but just installing ebox-samba will give you a file-server, and nothing else | 17:51 |
| coleys | twig11: lspci | grep -i network | 17:51 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: Cool. Have you used the ebox backup? How does it compare to something like backuppc? The whole reason I am spending 5 hours on this is for backups | 17:52 |
| niiayitey | i want to know if i can share my partion disk on my virtualbox | 17:52 |
| stefg | adam35413_: i use rdiff-backup over nfs .... twice as fast over the net than samba, but that depends on what you want to doo | 17:53 |
| c3o | have some people can help me for fix this error http://pastebin.com/m4389f3ca | 17:53 |
| twig11 | coleys: no output at all. | 17:53 |
| bazhang | c3o, this is for setting up a kiosk? to lockdown the system? | 17:54 |
| coleys | twig11: lsusb (output at pastebin) | 17:54 |
| c3o | what mean bazhang | 17:55 |
| c3o | can you install it | 17:55 |
| c3o | ? | 17:55 |
| stefg | adam35413_: if you need to backup windows boxwn over the net i rather look at setting up a ftp server and use something like acronis true image for the win boxen to dump their stuff | 17:55 |
| wildc4rd | evening all | 17:55 |
| c3o | evening wildc4rd | 17:55 |
| c3o | :) | 17:55 |
| niiayitey | i want to share my drive in between my windows and ubuntu using virtual box | 17:55 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: Its just over a local network, so I don't need anything complicated. I would prefer to just use rsync, but I don't want to have to install cygwin on the windows boxes for ssh | 17:56 |
| stefg | adam35413_: smb is slow.... if you can avoid it, do so | 17:56 |
| kevdog | ebox -- is this a specific distro? | 17:56 |
| === krinkle is now known as Guest84733 | ||
| niiayitey | do u have another option? | 17:56 |
| stefg | adam35413_: ubuntu ftp-server > true image for the win boxes | 17:56 |
| kevdog | adam35413_: what's wrong with cygwin? | 17:57 |
| adam35413_ | kevdog: Nothing, I just don't want to install a large piece of software to get backups working | 17:57 |
| kevdog | There are other ssh alternatives on windows, however they dont give you the same security of windows | 17:57 |
| adam35413_ | kevdog: The goal was to have backups without any software installation on my windows boxes | 17:57 |
| stefg | kevdog: that you probably have to 'pollute' minimal workstation setups with cygwin just to be able to talk to a linux server | 17:58 |
| bazhang | c3o, this is for a public library? cms and opac? | 17:58 |
| kevdog | adam35413_: Honestly that would be impossible, unless you plan on using ftp or something. However even in that case you would need some scripting or something | 17:58 |
| neldoreth | anyone here who got an rt2860 running under ubuntu 9.04 (-> eee 1000h)? ive updated everything, tried the solutions in the web, which just dont work here and i have no idea what i can do :? | 17:58 |
| kevdog | there is always the putty client you could use -- there is a putty portable app that can be run from a USB stick | 17:59 |
| adam35413_ | kevdog: scripting is fine, but I don't want to install cygwin. That is why I was trying to use samba | 17:59 |
| c3o | so | 17:59 |
| niiayitey | how do i use the ftp server for virtual box | 17:59 |
| bazhang | c3o, yes or no | 17:59 |
| c3o | we can't install it on ubuntu brohter bazhang | 17:59 |
| c3o | and yes | 17:59 |
| kevdog | samba in my experience just really stinks -- its unreliable | 17:59 |
| bazhang | c3o, wait a moment | 17:59 |
| stefg | adam35413_: if you just need file backups (as opposed to partition images) you might look at unison | 17:59 |
| kevdog | You cant count on the drives staying mounted | 17:59 |
| bullgard4 | /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.28/sound/core/info.c calls itself an "Information interface for ALSA driver". What do I have to visualize as an 'information interface for ALSA driver'? | 18:00 |

| kevdog | unison runs ontop of ssh -- its a glorified version of rsync that allow two way synchronization -- its more of a mirring utility compared to rsync which is a one way sync | 18:02 |
| c3o | am blank for ubuntu, but am love ubuntu | 18:02 |

| adam35413_ | stefg: unison is using ssh though, which takes me back to having ot install cygwin on windows machines | 18:02 |

| grawity | Bitvise WinSSHd is kinda nice. | 18:03 |
| kevdog | putty can be the client -- but you need an ssh server. | 18:03 |
| adam35413_ | kevdog: Putty is a great client. but its not the server, right | 18:03 |
| Guest84733 | need help installing Mobile Intel® 945GM Express Chipset gfx in jaunty | 18:03 |
| kevdog | right -- windows does not have a built-in ssh server -- so you do need additional software | 18:04 |
| kevdog | Depending on what you want you could use samba as one method, but also ftp, ssh (rsync,unison) | 18:04 |
| adam35413_ | I think I'm going to try winsshd and go back to rsync | 18:04 |
| adam35413_ | see how that works | 18:05 |

| kevdog | The one advantage of a cygwin sshd setup, is that the sshd_conf file is the same as in cygwin as in linux -- hence once you configure a cygwin server -- you could always configure a linux ssh server | 18:06 |
| adam35413_ | stefg: for unison or winsshd? | 18:06 |
| kevdog | Unison is additionally a client/server program. You need to install unison ontop of the ssh server/client | 18:07 |

Since i don't have hdmi on my laptop or vga on my tv, if i were to connect my laptop to tv using a vga to component cable, would that allow me to keep my 1280x800 resolution?? | 18:09 |

| deany | Ramonster, find DefaultRoot and change to DefaultRoot /var/www | 18:39 |

| twig11 | kevdog: ndiswrapper is listed, but it was before and my wireless didn't connect on reboot. The default ubuntu network applet is network-manager, right? | 18:42 |
| kevdog | twig11: correct | 18:43 |
| deany | Ramonster, check if there is a duplicate DefaultRoot line with "DefaultRoot ~" and remove it. Its to jail users to their home folder. | 18:43 |
| Dr_Willis | TwoToneSpirit: not sure what you mean by F7 terminal.. in the 'consoles' on alt-cctrl-F1 through F6, you could login and check your x log files perhaps. | 18:43 |

| kevdog | twig11: Again using usb devices are far more unreliable than pci bus devices. Simply put those commands in a script and then just run the script after you log in. Its not a perfect solution, however it works. The problem has to do with the order of loading the modules by the kernel. | 18:44 |

| Ramonster | deany: well, thats what I want | 18:46 |
| llml | Dr_Willis: is there any suggested docs about pid file? | 18:46 |
| Dr_Willis | earthmeLon: most all services allready start befor you login.. and to stop X from starting up.. disable the gdm service. | 18:46 |
| twig11 | kevdog: thank you. The commands would be the ones for taking down, removing, and putting up the interface, then entering the ESSID and key, correct? And I've never written a script before. Where's a good place to get the basics on that? | 18:46 |
| unop | dmead, ok. unload all the sound modules with this command. sudo alsa --force-unload #then load your module again. sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel | 18:46 |

| ubottu | Planet Ubuntu (blogs of Ubuntu developers and members) can be found at http://planet.ubuntu.com | 19:27 |
| Flannel | swtaarrs: See the explanation of why we don't call it 3.5, if you're really in need of the official branding, you'll want to get the binaries from mozilla. | 19:27 |
| bjorkintosh | that's precisely what i did. i just wanted to make sure no data would be lost. | 19:27 |
| mshafiullah | grawity: only other thing I can remember of is that I once manually edited the shadow file. Would that screw up things? | 19:27 |
| grawity | mshafiullah: possible | 19:28 |
| _rot_ | Junius: it worked fine till today sometime - it works under windows and it works on the headphone jack | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis | bjorkintosh: it alwyas a good idea to have backups.. and what filesystem are these? | 19:28 |
| bjorkintosh | ext3fs | 19:28 |
| _rot_ | Junius: its quite strange i think... | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis | bjorkintosh: the UUID might change on the one getting enlarged. (ive never figured out what gparted actions change the UUID. but i know some can change the UUID) | 19:28 |
| Junius | _rot_: if you go into the volume control doe sit say HDA Intel (AlsaMixer) and are both PCM and lienout turned up? | 19:29 |
| bjorkintosh | and then i added a swap partition. | 19:29 |
| Dr_Willis | bjorkintosh: so you may want to jot down the current UUID to verify after its done. | 19:29 |

| mneptok | Ramonster: you need to tell your apache config file how to handle .php files | 19:32 |
| Ramonster | mneptol: How do I do this? | 19:32 |
| Myrtti | !tab | Ramonster | 19:33 |
| ubottu | Ramonster: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 19:33 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: That's not really necessary | 19:33 |
| grawity | Ramonster: if you installed PHP from apt, then it should've set up everything -- try sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload | 19:33 |
| Dr_Willis | wow - firefox popped up a tab suggesting i upgrade.. :) http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/upgrade.html | 19:33 |
| mneptok | Ramonster: you edit your apache config file and tell it to interpret .php files through the PHP interpreter rather than just serve them | 19:33 |
| grawity | Ramonster: try installing libapache2-mod-php5 | 19:33 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, my apologies sir | 19:34 |
| Ramonster | grawity: did that | 19:34 |

| Junius | _rot_: your right it is strange. sounds stupid but have you restarted the 901. sometimes ALSA locks up if more than 1 app tries to use sound at the same time. | 19:35 |
| mneptok | Ramonster: before you start serving PHP you should reallt take some time and learn how Apache is configured. you don't want to fly a jet without knowing what the joystick is for. ;) | 19:35 |

| youseenothing_ | icehawk78: or sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf | 19:42 |
| Junius | _rot_: anything that isnt 100% i remember that on my ee if it was at 100 it would think it was at 0 -- also its a good idea to go through the list of devices in volume control and just make sure nothing is muted | 19:42 |

| geophysics1 | dont you use gnome 2.26 | 19:57 |
| y7deluxe | what's that mean iceroot? | 19:58 |
| jerroome | y7deluxe : try gparted | 19:58 |
| papapep | geophysics1: 2.26.1 | 19:58 |
| OttifantSir | SvishJee: Which install are you running? | 19:58 |
| y7deluxe | i type gparted into the terminal? and then select the hdd from there or something? | 19:58 |
| geophysics1 | papapep: same with minei interesting :) | 19:58 |
| papapep | but this settings appear from long time ago... | 19:58 |
| twig11 | grawity: if i just enter one of those URLs in my browser, it does a google search on it and displays results | 19:58 |
| Svish|eee | OttifantSir: desktop ubuntu 9.04 x64 install | 19:58 |
| jerroome | !gparted | 19:58 |
| ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 19:58 |
| jerroome | !gparted > y7deluxe | 19:59 |
| ubottu | y7deluxe, please see my private message | 19:59 |
| iceroot | y7deluxe: sudo apt-get install gparted to install gparted and then run it with gksudo gparted | 19:59 |
| iceroot | y7deluxe: or start it from the application menu | 19:59 |
| y7deluxe | is there any way to view the hdd to confirm there are zero files left on the hdd before i reformat it? | 20:00 |
| OttifantSir | Svish|ee: Never heard that one before, and I haven't run any 64-bit installs, so I don't know what happens there. Let me see if I can hunt down how to post a bug unless someone else beats me to it. Don't have to do it very often, really. | 20:00 |
| Svish|eee | Could someone point me to an ok guide on how to set up raid 1 during ubuntu 9.04 install? | 20:00 |
| iceroot | y7deluxe: yes, you can mount the hdd, to see what it contains | 20:00 |
| Svish|eee | OttifantSir: already got a link to launchpad or something. so Im posting a bug now :) | 20:00 |
| y7deluxe | does that show hidden files and whatnot iceroot? | 20:00 |
| iceroot | !mount | y7deluxe | 20:00 |

| banditpower | Hello world. I caused an error on my server. Here's the shindig: i have ubuntu intrepid that had wordpress running on apache2. I installed ispcp but then I couldn't access phpmyadmin or my site. My solution was to configure /etc/apache2/sites-available/00_master.conf and /etc/apache2/ports.conf to serve ispcp on another port and an appropriate vhost on port 80. However, now php isn't working out of the site i set to port 8 | 20:00 |
| billenium | how can i adda second user with root permissions? | 20:01 |
| iceroot | billenium: system-administration-user and groups | 20:01 |
| devman | billenium, system, admin, users and groups | 20:01 |
| devman | dang, ninja'd | 20:01 |
| iceroot | billenium: there you can add a user in the root-group | 20:01 |
| unop | billenium, just make sure the second user is in the 'admin' group | 20:01 |
| iceroot | billenium: its a normal user which can use sudo | 20:01 |
| unop | iceroot, there's a difference between the 'root' and 'admin' groups tho .. | 20:02 |
| iceroot | unop: then its the admin-group | 20:03 |
| unop | iceroot, i'm assuming if he wants the user to be able to use sudo - he wants the 'admin' group | 20:03 |
| iceroot | unop: billenium | how can i adda second user with root permissions? | 20:03 |
| needhelp1 | does anyone here use GRAMPS? | 20:03 |
| iceroot | unop: this sounds for me like the root-group | 20:03 |
| iceroot | !anyone | needhelp1 | 20:03 |
| ubottu | needhelp1: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 20:03 |
| unop | iceroot, well, we know how people word questions in here - they usually want B when they ask for A | 20:04 |
| iceroot | unop: yes, you are right | 20:04 |
| billenium | or they ask C when they want 4 | 20:04 |
| iceroot | unop: but if i am correct you can only choose desktop user and admin user | 20:04 |
| needhelp1 | I need help with GRAMPS | 20:04 |
| L3dPlatedLinux | is there anyway to use a live cd to repair from hibernation ? | 20:04 |

| DhavaL_ | I pressed ctrl+alt+F1 and... | 20:05 |
| DhavaL_ | I logged in as root | 20:05 |
| iceroot | unop: normaly ubuntu is not using root, so i geuss there is only admin and not root | 20:05 |
| FabParma | Does exist a GUI program to backup windows shared into a Lan? I need to automate the backups and get a log when finished via email. On m$ platforms there is a program that does this, his name it is "Cobian Backup". I hope to find one equal or better then this. Thank you for help me | 20:05 |
| DhavaL_ | I logged into root, and typed gdm start, and then went to ctrl+alt+F7 and I get a black screen! | 20:06 |
| DhavaL_ | Help me, somebody. | 20:06 |
| jerroome | Dhaval : have a look at your xorg log file, you will find it inside the /var/log/ and named Xorg.X.log | 20:06 |
| DhavaL_ | Yeah and what should I do? | 20:06 |
| unop | iceroot, well, again that's not strictly true - the root user is always being used (without it a lot of daemons wouldn't run) -- it's just that the root user is not allowed a logon (the account is locked)... but then again, he's interested in the groups - not the users - a different story altogether | 20:06 |
| DhavaL_ | what should I look for in the log file? | 20:07 |
| UTZXUBIRU | hello i have xp guest running on ubuntu host, one partition ext3 for ubuntu, another one for swap and two other left untouched now i d like to move the .vdi to another partition which file system should i use? | 20:07 |

| Bogus8 | anyone have a good guide/how to or even just the programs I would/should use to set up an email server (eventually to go live on a linode with a couple of domains, pop3 and webmail)? | 20:07 |
| unop | iceroot, errm, do i? :) | 20:07 |
| iceroot | unop: i hope so :) | 20:07 |
| [R] | UTZXUBIRU: it doesnt really matter | 20:08 |
| unop | iceroot, i wasn't sure the way that was worded :) | 20:08 |
| DhavaL_ | It's called 'The Black Screen fo death'. I uninstalled compiz, and it still did not work | 20:08 |
| OttifantSir | UTZXUBIRU: As long as Ubuntu can mount it and read it, choose whichever you like, then move the vdi there and change the settings in VirtualBox. | 20:08 |
| Svish|eee | nobody has any good pointers on how to set up raid 1 during ubuntu install? | 20:09 |

| UTZXUBIRU | is it safe to run xp guest .vdi image from a fat32 partition, that way i think i could save file from xp in fat32 and use tehm in both ubuntu and xp | 20:09 |
| jerroome | Dhaval : make a backup of your xorg.conf file and then use the command sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 20:09 |
| callum_ | !ircd | 20:09 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ircd | 20:09 |
| callum_ | what is it? | 20:09 |
| needhelp1 | callum_: or are you asking for a popular server to chat on | 20:09 |
| [R] | UTZXUBIRU: fat32 can only hold 4gb files... i'm sure your vdi is larger than that | 20:09 |
| DhavaL_ | alright. | 20:09 |
| needhelp1 | or are you wanting to start your own server | 20:09 |
| jerroome | Dhaval : /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 20:09 |
| callum_ | needhelp1: a popular server that people chat on please. | 20:09 |
| needhelp1 | freenode | 20:10 |

| DhavaL_ | I know jerroome | 20:10 |
| UTZXUBIRU | [R] what should i do then? | 20:10 |
| DhavaL_ | Just one question: What does dpkg do? | 20:10 |
| OttifantSir | USZXUBIRU: At least NTFS is required. ext3 seems to fit your needs best. | 20:10 |
| y7deluxe | i downloaded a file with firefox... i can't find it... how do i perform a search? | 20:10 |
| callum_ | needhelp1: How do i get a room list using XCHAT On Ubuntu please. | 20:10 |

| ktne | anyone here can help me with xinetd? | 20:10 |
| needhelp1 | type /list | 20:10 |
| DhavaL_ | alright. | 20:10 |
| jerroome | !dpkg | 20:10 |
| ubottu | dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. | 20:10 |
| edbian | DhavaL_: dpkg is the base leve package manager. It is the backend to apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, and add/remove | 20:10 |
| [R] | y7deluxe: its probably in ~/Desktop | 20:10 |
| UTZXUBIRU | ubuntu doenst let me format to ntfs | 20:10 |
| callum_ | Thankyou so much x | 20:10 |

| CorpX | it doesnt do anything | 20:12 |
| CorpX | the local command that is | 20:12 |
| DhavaL_ | I have a (girl)friend coming tomorrow man. I want to show her the power of compiz | 20:12 |
| [R] | y7deluxe: in the firefox preferences, it'll tell you where it downloads files | 20:12 |
| Bogus8 | UTZXUBIRU: there are some drivers for windows that read/writes ext | 20:12 |
| OttifantSir | y7deluxe: try running find and locate with the filename from terminal: find foobar.file | 20:12 |
| papapep | CorpX: first type "sudo updatedb" and repeat the locate | 20:12 |

| callum_ | i dislike firefox... | 20:14 |
| needhelp1 | applications : add/remove | 20:14 |
| DhavaL_ | hehe | 20:14 |
| papapep | Bullaro: which is the "main" user, root? | 20:14 |
| OttifantSir | callum: You deleted or purged/removed completely Firefox? | 20:15 |
| DhavaL_ | Meh, I'm off. Thanks people. I'll be back if it doesn' work ok? If it does, I'll be back to thank you guys. | 20:15 |

| geophysics1 | hey, in compiz fusion i selected 4 desktops and i activated desktop cube and also rotate cube, BUT when i try to rotate my desktop i just rotate two desktops like a pape, what is problem | 20:18 |
| loner269 | can someone help me on getting my sound rite please? | 20:18 |
| legend2440 | needhelp1: there is a channel #gramps only 4 people in there now though | 20:18 |
| nsahoo | is it possible to make a window borderless? | 20:18 |
| OttifantSir | callum: Right. Not too smart, then. Opera automatically uses the plugins downloaded for Firefox, and if you installed Flash before completely removing Firefox, you deleted Opera's bindings to Flash. Reinstall Firefox, close it, reinstall Flash. Open Opera, delete, not Remove Completely, Firefox. That should make it work again. Or probably do what legend2440 told you in his link. | 20:19 |
| callum_ | i didnt like the netbook remix of ubuntu and when switching to desktop classic mode it has a bug that removes the start and icon bars. making it useless | 20:19 |
| needhelp1 | legend2440: if you noticed i was one of those four lol | 20:19 |
| legend2440 | needhelp1: oh ok | 20:19 |
| needhelp1 | gramps isnt allowing me to add addition spouses or simplings | 20:19 |
| needhelp1 | so i was looking for another way | 20:19 |
| Kirk | hello! | 20:19 |
| legend2440 | needhelp1: never tried gramps sorry | 20:19 |
| Bullaro | papapep, restarted my server 10 mins ago, still cant reconnect | 20:19 |
| howie | when i log into my server it gives me load avg and # of system process and #users ect.. is there a cmd to show that at will? | 20:19 |

| Ti-dev | hi, what's the version of xorg in Jaunty? | 20:20 |
| papapep | Bullaro: you mean it's a remote server? you can't access locally? | 20:20 |
| needhelp1 | callum_: you know that opera is proprietary software right? | 20:20 |
| Bullaro | papapep, yeah | 20:20 |
| mobi-sheep | callum_: You can add a Menu applet to your panel if bug took it off. | 20:20 |
| [R] | Ti-dev: 1.6.0 | 20:20 |
| callum_ | ottifansir ill try and reiinstall firefox it looks a bit hard that link lol | 20:20 |
| callum_ | thanks x | 20:20 |
| Ti-dev | [R]: Thanks! | 20:20 |
| papapep | Bullaro: well, that adds some complications to the problem... :/ | 20:20 |
| Bullaro | papaped: well, i could get to it locally. But its connected downstairs near the router without a monitor/keyboard and mouse | 20:21 |
| Bullaro | papapep: but I could get it up, cept.. it hast got any inet connections then | 20:21 |
| Bullaro | oh! | 20:21 |
| OttifantSir | needhelp1: It's proprietary software that works better than Firefox IMO. It's also got an added advantage for me personally: It's Norwegian. Meaning, there aren't any "strange" translations in it like there is in Firefox and the other browsers. | 20:21 |
| Bullaro | maybe thats the problem... maybe the inet cable fell out | 20:21 |
| papapep | Bullaro: then you should go and verify what happens to the sshd process... | 20:22 |
| Bullaro | papapep: brb... checking the cables :P | 20:22 |
| callum_ | ineedhelp1: what is propriatary meaning i am a noob sorry x | 20:22 |

| mobi-sheep | Bullaro: "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh status" ---> sshd running? | 20:22 |
| UTZXUBIRU | thanks | 20:23 |

| Kirk | Hello~does anyone have an idea why 9.04 install hangs @ 82% "Configuring apt" with "scanning the mirror" displayed? | 20:24 |
| papapep | Bullaro: what's not the problem, the cables? | 20:24 |
| jerroome | Bullaro : http and ftp don't have to do anything with ssh ... | 20:24 |
| callum_ | ottifantsir: i installed firefox again and flash is working now what do i again please x just re-checking | 20:24 |
| OttifantSir | UTZXUBIRU: The files you save in the .vdi is saved in Windows-format. A way around your problem, as I understand it, is to make a folder besides the .vdi on the partition and share it with Samba. That way you don't have to worry about not being able to format NTFS on the partition from Ubuntu. You can just format it with ext3 or any of the other filesystems. | 20:25 |
| Bullaro | papapep: yes | 20:25 |
| callum_ | WHY IS UBUNTU SO GOOD? | 20:25 |
| Bullaro | callum_ it isnt | 20:25 |
| callum_ | I mean it's so much nicer than a windows OS. | 20:25 |
| papapep | Bullaro: and also http and ftp depend on different services, so you HAVE to verify what happens with the ssh process... | 20:26 |
| mobi-sheep | callum_: Linux is good. | 20:26 |
| callum_ | Bullaro I think it is x and it beats my Imac G4 lol | 20:26 |
| Bullaro | papapep: but how do I do that? :P | 20:26 |
| callum_ | Does anyone know if i can install ubuntu on my mac osx imac? | 20:26 |
| OttifantSir | callum_: If you REALLY don't want Firefox, go to Synaptic and delete it, but don't choose Remove Completely. That way, the config-files are still there. | 20:26 |
| edbian | callum_: Yes you definitely can. | 20:26 |
| jerroome | Bullaro : ps -ef | grep ssh | 20:26 |
| papapep | I've told you before: go downstairs, and type "ps -e|grep sshd" | 20:26 |
| callum_ | edbian omg really? | 20:26 |
| edbian | callum_: I don't know about dual booting but I would guess probably | 20:26 |
| Bullaro | jeroome: what does that do? | 20:26 |
| edbian | callum_: Yeah. Are they power pc or intel based? | 20:27 |
| callum_ | imac g4 - power pc | 20:27 |

| xose | helou galiza | 20:30 |
| OttifantSir | UTZXUBIRU: As long as the disk is mountable inside the .vdi, it's safe. Or, as safe as the NTFS. | 20:30 |

| jerroome | Bullaro : if it's already installed, just run sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart | 20:30 |
| edbian | callum_: According to the tutorial yeah. Ubuntu should auto-detect the architecture. It says you need to hold down the "c" key when booting with the disc in the drive. | 20:30 |

| callum_ | edbian: or can i burn the dvd to cd using one disk drive - dvd writable? on windows | 20:39 |
| edbian | callum_: Depends. Did you download an ISO of a DVD or an iso or a CD and simply burn it to a DVD. | 20:39 |
| edbian | or an iso of a CD* | 20:39 |
| thestarlion | I need a bit of help. I need to resize the main partition on my ubuntu computer, the active one, but I can't because it's mounted. I can't use a live cd because there's no cd drive, and the usb port is dead. is it possible to resize the active partition somehow | 20:39 |
| Bogus8 | UTZXUBIRU: I guess... I don't remember, haven't used it in a while... sounds right | 20:39 |

| youseenothing_ | y7deluxe: if your linux box can ping 102 (winxp) but can't with 105 (winxp) i would check firewall first | 20:41 |
| callum_ | edbian: 3.8GB remaning on dvd-r | 20:41 |
| edbian | thestarlion: get unetbootin. It will allow you to boot from an ISO on your harddrive. It doesn't always work perfectly but it usually works pretty well. | 20:41 |
| youseenothing_ | y7deluxe: firewall on the 105 machine | 20:41 |
| y7deluxe | jerroome, my ubuntu (.101) and windowsXP (.102) can ping each other.... my other windowsXP machine (.105) cannot be pinged by either of them.... but it can ping my router (192.168.1.1) | 20:41 |
| youseenothing_ | y7deluxe: because you said that 102 can't ping it either | 20:41 |

| callum_ | edbian: so maybe i can rip thee dvd-r? copy whats on the dvd to my desktop and burn it to cd-r | 20:44 |
| edbian | callum_: You can use it to make an .iso from a CD and you can use it to burn an iso onto a new blank CD :) | 20:44 |
| dunks | UTZXUBIRU: you'll only use swap if you go over 3Gb of RAM usage, | 20:44 |
| youseenothing_ | y7deluxe: and why wouldn't you be able to vnc in from any other machine on your network? | 20:44 |
| dunks | and even then you'll probably not use much | 20:44 |

| sephy | soreau: Oblivion with Shriving isles | 20:57 |
| sephy | sorry =/ | 20:58 |
| soreau | sephy: And you're running that through wine? | 20:58 |
| sephy | Yes. | 20:58 |
| callum_ | edbian Ok CD's in the drive XD | 20:58 |
| OttifantSir | UTZXUBIRU: Just that there is SOME space not used on the drive. Preceding = Before. Following = After. Meaning space not used on the drive, and it is located before or after the partition you're making. | 20:58 |
| devman | sephy, have you looked at it's APPDB page to look for fixes? | 20:58 |
| soreau | sephy: Well then, that's probably the problem. Maybe see if wine-hq has some further information for you | 20:58 |
| jerroome | devman : if you find a sound device with lspci, it's probably working ... | 20:58 |
| Switch10 | sephy: I couldent get it to work with wine | 20:58 |
| UTZXUBIRU | ok it just means ill be stuck with 1mb unused space ight? | 20:59 |
| devman | sephy, http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=3150 | 20:59 |
| OttifantSir | UTZXUBIRU: Exactly. | 20:59 |
| Switch10 | Had a hard time uninstalling too | 20:59 |
| sephy | soreau: There wasn't a HOWTO for shirving isles, but it was posted as it runs | 20:59 |
| callum_ | edbian: what speed? leave it at 4x speed and auto? | 20:59 |
| y7deluxe | jerroome, ok, i setup .105 so it can ping google.com..... yet it still can't ping .101 or .102 and .101 and .102 still can't ping .105..... i'm gonna go offline now to switch .101 to .100 and test it then... wish me luck :) | 20:59 |
| UTZXUBIRU | um.. thats one of the reasons i formated the pc in the first place.. | 20:59 |
| edbian | callum_: The speed doesn't really matter. The slower the high the quality | 21:00 |
| soreau | sephy: Seems some others have some suggestions for you here, try those | 21:00 |
| devman | jerroome, well, theres an audio device. But the thing is, everything in alsamixer is turned on high, and when I use the sound gui thing to test it it lets out some massive shreak that kills my ear | 21:00 |
| devman | ss | 21:00 |
| OttifantSir | UTZXUBIRU: So you wouldn't have any free space? That's rather common actually. I have 8MB unused space. | 21:00 |
| callum_ | edbian: thanks so much it's burning now my mac is on do i just put the cd in it and it will load and i click install ubuntu or do i need to reboot the mac and hold c you think? | 21:00 |
| sephy | devman: that link doesn't exactly help much =/ | 21:01 |
| abchirk | hm i install a ubuntu from cd over my old ubuntu.. the /home shouldn't be affected, when i don't partitionate my harddisk? | 21:01 |
| soreau | devman: That means you need to turn your volume down. It's called feedback | 21:01 |
| edbian | callum_: You will need to reboot. | 21:01 |
| Corduroy | server irc.ptnet.org | 21:01 |

| edbian | callum_:NP | 21:01 |
| UTZXUBIRU | i cant merge the unlocatted space to another apartiton why? | 21:01 |
| y7deluxe_ | jerroome, still can't ping the machine... | 21:01 |
| devman | soreau, ok, I'll try that | 21:01 |
| callum_ | edbian: where are you from, do you work for ubuntu room? | 21:01 |
| edbian | callum_: I'm from Chicago, Il. I am a volunteer. I wish that I could get paid to do this. | 21:02 |
| jerroome | y7deluxe : tired and out of ideas, good luck !!!! | 21:02 |
| OttifantSir | UTZXUBIRU: If the two partitions aren't next to eachother/following eachother, I don't think it's possible to merge them. Someone may say differently, but I think that's right | 21:02 |
| mobi-sheep | UTZXUBIRU: Unallocated space? You could resize. | 21:02 |
| devman | soreau, nope, I turned it almost all the way down it was as loud as ever | 21:03 |
| callum_ | edbian: awesome i am from australia w.a lol - its early morning here, I have no life :P | 21:03 |
| soreau | devman: Even the mic down? turned the boost off? | 21:03 |
| banditpower | Hello world. I caused an error on my server. Here's the shindig: i have ubuntu intrepid that had wordpress running on apache2. I installed ispcp but then I couldn't access phpmyadmin or my site. My solution was to configure /etc/apache2/sites-available/00_master.conf and /etc/apache2/ports.conf to serve ispcp on another port and an appropriate vhost on port 80. However, now php isn't working out of the site i set to port 8 | 21:03 |
| edbian | callum_: It's 3 PM here. I have to go to work in 10 minutes just so you know | 21:03 |
| bryce_ | hey guys when i do suspend or hibernate, my internet disconnects itself and wont connect again, how do i fix this? | 21:03 |
| soreau | edbian: Work on a Sunday too huh | 21:03 |
| devman | soreau, yeah, the boost is all the way off. When I turn it on and talk, without the sound test thing on, I can tell it's working | 21:04 |
| edbian | soreau: I am a lifeguard on weekends :) | 21:04 |
| callum_ | edbian: where do you work? I work for my parents on our olive grove and winery, | 21:04 |
| devman | soreau, which makes me think that linux can control it... | 21:04 |
| soreau | devman: So what's the problem then? | 21:04 |
| mobi-sheep | bryce_: Try disable + enable Network Manager on applet? | 21:04 |
| devman | soreau, no apps regonize it, mainly skype, but audacity doesn't work either | 21:04 |
| callum_ | edbian: i don't get paid money, i get paid possesions lol every now and then | 21:04 |
| soreau | ! work | devman | 21:05 |
| ubottu | devman: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 21:05 |
| mobi-sheep | bryce_: [X] Enable Networking. | 21:05 |
| bryce_ | mobi-sheep: ive tried that no dice | 21:05 |
| callum_ | LOL | 21:05 |
| bryce_ | but ill try it again in a minute | 21:05 |
| UTZXUBIRU | ok im sorted now thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 21:05 |
| mobi-sheep | bryce_: Run ifconfig. | 21:05 |
| mobi-sheep | You're talking about ethernet or wifi? | 21:05 |
| devman | soreau, uhh, just, no sound gets recorded, regardless of what device I chose in the application | 21:05 |
| bryce_ | wireless | 21:05 |
| devman | soreau, and like I said, the sound test makes it go crazy | 21:06 |
| mobi-sheep | bryce_: You see wlan0 or wlan1 ? | 21:06 |
| bryce_ | hold on | 21:06 |
| C-S-B | devman: what hw do you have? | 21:06 |
| bryce_ | wlan0 | 21:06 |
| soreau | devman: Which sound tests are you using? | 21:06 |
| UTZXUBIRU | whats the differemce between ext3 and ext2? | 21:06 |
| devman | soreau, the one in prefrences sound | 21:06 |
| devman | C-S-B, HDA Nvidia | 21:06 |
| bryce_ | that and wmaster0 | 21:06 |
| soreau | devman: idk, try reading some: | 21:07 |
| mobi-sheep | bryce_: Try this -- "sudo ifconfig wlan0 down" | 21:07 |
| bryce_ | ok | 21:07 |
| L3dPlatedLinux | ok | 21:07 |
| mobi-sheep | bryce_: "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up" | 21:07 |
| bryce_ | and thatll do it? | 21:07 |
| bryce_ | ok | 21:07 |
| mobi-sheep | bryce_: Could be. Hit or miss approach. | 21:07 |
| soreau | ! audio | devman | 21:07 |
| ubottu | devman: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 21:07 |

| coleys | woakus: lspci |grep -i network (Paste output at pastebin please) | 21:09 |
| mobi-sheep | zacek: My belief is that Ubuntu is an OS, not Window application. But in the terms, it's always possible to improve by cutting down running services, adjust led brightness, etc. | 21:09 |

| mobi-sheep | zacek: Some things -- you can use. http://www.lesswatts.org/ | 21:10 |
| OttifantSir | zacek: Not if your battery is old and dying. You CAN turn down the brightness, turn off wireless, underclock your processor, remove USB-devices to gain a little more, but if your battery is old and has been connected to the power grid all the time, it's dying and won't improve much. | 21:10 |

| geronimo9 | y7deluxe_: are the subnet masks the same? | 21:13 |
| Markopotomus | I gots a problem. Having freshly installed Ubuntu with no problems, I updated lots of things and added a bunch of things - including the ATI binary X.org driver and ATI Catalyst control center. After restarting, the screen just splurges out nasty garbage after booting. I'm using the boot CD right now. Can I somehow remove those things? | 21:13 |
| wolf23 | coleys thanx, but tell me now i close ktorrent and then i open deluge,what can i do first ? | 21:13 |
| reinalau | hi | 21:13 |
| mobi-sheep | wolf23: You should be able. Just make sure you open the deluge first, and DL it a bit. Pause it. Replace the file with the half-done file. Do the recheck on Deluge. | 21:13 |
| y7deluxe_ | geronimo9, is the subnet mask the 192.168.1.xxx part? | 21:13 |
| soreau | devman: I don't know about that card man, not sure why it's loading an intel driver but it seems to be working somewhat | 21:14 |
| reinalau | are you crazy???? | 21:14 |
| reinalau | ja | 21:14 |
| devman | soreau, looks like NVdia HDA is supported. It's just the mic that doesn't work, output is fine | 21:14 |
| soreau | devman: Maybe try to see if your audio chipset mfgr offers a linux driver | 21:14 |
| guntbert | reinalau: do you have an ubuntu support question? | 21:14 |
| zartan | !nvidia | 21:14 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 21:14 |
| devman | soreau, and I know that the card is fine, because it works in wondows | 21:14 |
| devman | soreau, ok | 21:14 |
| geronimo9 | y7deluxe_: no it's the 255.255.255.0 part. | 21:14 |
| y7deluxe_ | roger, let me go check | 21:15 |
| mobi-sheep | zacek: By the way, you're running Wubi so right now, Ubuntu is running on NTFS partition (That's Windows native filesystem, not linux) and it could explains for slightly reduced performances and fast power consumption, etc. | 21:15 |
| thestarlion | I have a problem. I need to resize the active partition, mounted as / but with no cd drive and no working usb port, I can't find any way to do so. Is there a way to do this, or at least do a fresh install of Jaunty over a pre-existing Jaunty install? | 21:15 |

| twig11 | C-S-B: well, I want to use it to connect to a wireless network and "Wireless Networks" is grayed out, followed by the words "device not managed". I connected using the command line. How do I set it up so I can use Network Manager to connect to a wireless network? | 21:22 |

| maxo | I'm having a really strange problem. Firefox is capping file download sizes to 135KB. So if I download a file larger than 135KB, it will only download 135KB, then say that the download is complete. Any ideas how I can fix this problem? | 21:25 |
| OttifantSir | thestarlion: This will require you to open your case and take something that's internal out into the external, and really isn't a VERY good choice, but: On the motherboards I have seen, there is usually an Internal USB-port. You may have one too. Connecting a USB-hub to that internal port, setting boot from USB in BIOS with a USB boot-disk might do the trick. Remember, you may not have one, and it's not a good idea to take something internal into the | 21:25 |
| whileimhere | Hi. I have found that I am not a big fan of XFCE KDE or GNOME but I love Ubuntu. Other than Fluxbox are there any decent desktop environs? | 21:25 |
| FiReSTaRT | usr13: i have another ligitech quickcam that's not working for me.. but how much did it set you back? | 21:25 |
| hiatus | openbox | 21:25 |
| usr13 | maxo: wget | 21:25 |
| hutch | usr13 does that webcam work ootb or do U have to find the driver? | 21:25 |
| hiatus | whileimhere: Openbox, Enlightenment, Blackbox, umm.... | 21:26 |
| OttifantSir | whileimhere: icewm | 21:26 |
| noah | hola | 21:26 |
| thestarlion | OttifantSir: thanks but I', | 21:26 |
| maxo | usr13: yes, it works fine with wget. | 21:26 |
| whileimhere | is icewm really lighter than xfce ? | 21:26 |
| C-S-B | whileimhere: e16 | 21:26 |
| usr13 | Don't remember, had it for a while now, and got it used for only $10 or $15 if I remember. I think I saw one at walmart, and I think it was Logitec too. | 21:26 |
| soreau | whileimhere: You can have a standalone session. You probably want some window manager and maybe a taskbar at least | 21:27 |
| endo | whats the best way to download music with ubuntu | 21:27 |
| hiatus | icewm is much lighter then xfce | 21:27 |
| whileimhere | I plan to use my GNOME Ubuntu to install and then use synaptic to do the rest. | 21:27 |
| maxo | usr13: but in firefox, it says the download is complete even when it isn't | 21:27 |
| thestarlion | OttifantSir: thanks but I'm pretty sure that I don't have one | 21:27 |
| SuperMiguel | is gnump3d the best media share software? | 21:27 |
| soreau | whileimhere: Basically, you startx without any other programs loaded and load only what you want to load | 21:27 |
| hiatus | whileimhere: xfce isn't all that light. It takes about as much memory as gnome. Its just the preinstalled applications are lighter then gnomes | 21:27 |
| usr13 | maxo: What version of Firefox do you have? | 21:27 |
| hiatus | like Thunar is lighter then Nautilus | 21:27 |
| hutch | usr13 sorry i was asking if it worked out of the box in ubuntu | 21:27 |
| OttifantSir | thestarlion: You think you have too old a motherboard? | 21:28 |
| CorpX | is there a way to make ubuntu restart into windows, instead of doing shutdown/powern on | 21:28 |
| usr13 | hutch: Yes | 21:28 |
| whileimhere | So I need something that will be very basic as a desktop. Maybe let me have a panel and wallpaper and then the usual GIMP and Inkscape. Mostly this is for photos and archiving them onto CDRs | 21:28 |
| thestarlion | OttifantSir: No, I don't think the laptop has one at all, if it helps, it's an (old) Dell latitude c400 | 21:28 |
| hutch | usr13 thanx | 21:28 |
| endo | what should i use to download music? | 21:28 |
| maxo | usr13: ubuntu shipped version, so 3.0.11. But I've also tried with 3.5 beta, and also with a different profile and I still have the same problem | 21:28 |
| FiReSTaRT | usr13: there may be the issue of the usb webcam interfering with my built in webcam.. but i need to use a usb webcam to collect data for an opensource project | 21:28 |
| soreau | endo: Limewire? | 21:29 |
| Markopotomus | How do I Uninstall a driver in Ubuntu9.04 from either a safe mode command prompt or from the Desktop CD? | 21:29 |
| hiatus | whileimhere: You could try a minimal install | 21:29 |
| soreau | Markopotomus: Which driver? | 21:29 |
| OttifantSir | thestarlion: Right. I hadn't noticed the part about a laptop.... That certainly complicates things JUUUUUST a bit... :-P | 21:29 |
| C-S-B | Markopotomus: rmmod? | 21:29 |
| endo | eh anything besides limewire, im looking more for downloading torrents | 21:29 |
| Markopotomus | soreau: the ATI binary X.org driver | 21:30 |
| whileimhere | yeah hiatus ? I just like to use aptitude from the CLI and synaptic from the gui. I do use a lot of apps like Open office and GIMP so I just want to try to save on the desktop overhead. | 21:30 |
| C-S-B | endo, transmission, comes standard | 21:30 |
| thestarlion | OttifantSir; Do you know of any way to turn a Jaunty install upgraded from Hardy (via intrepid, of course) into a fresh Jaunty install? | 21:30 |
| OttifantSir | endo: Deluge. | 21:30 |
| soreau | endo: Err.. transmission is installed by default | 21:30 |
| Markopotomus | C-S-B: Ah! However; I am a newbie ;) Could you please explain? | 21:30 |
| === johnny is now known as Guest47007 | ||
| === locke_ is now known as |_ocke | ||
| soreau | Markopotomus: Do you mean fglrx? The proprietary binary catalyst driver? | 21:30 |
| C-S-B | Markopotomus: sudo rmmod <nameofmodule> | 21:30 |
| anon1 | fglrx eeeeeeeeeeeek | 21:30 |
| endo | thanks! | 21:30 |
| OttifantSir | thestarlion: Sorry. There have been times when I wished I knew, but alas. | 21:30 |
| woakus | coleys: sorry, but what did you mean by "(paste output at pastebin please)"? it is listing the wireless | 21:31 |
| usr13 | FiReSTaRT: I have a Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Pro 5000 on my other computer and it works fine too. | 21:31 |
| whileimhere | Thanks guys for all the desktop ideas.! :) Gracias | 21:31 |
| soreau | C-S-B: He said uninstall, not unload | 21:31 |
| Markopotomus | soreau: Well, it was called ATI binary X.org driver in Add/Remove programs. After installing it the screen just shows garbage after booting so I can't actually get into Ubuntu at all | 21:31 |
| anon1 | 9/10 glamour readers recommend wax strips....... | 21:31 |
| C-S-B | soreau: would unloading and blacklisting not do the same? | 21:31 |
| soreau | Markopotomus: Which card? | 21:31 |
| usr13 | FiReSTaRT: And I bought it for $25 about a year ago, (new). | 21:31 |
| hutch | Hi coleys | 21:31 |
| soreau | C-S-B: No, not in this case | 21:31 |
| Markopotomus | soreau: A Powercolour RadeonX1650 pro | 21:32 |
| FiReSTaRT | usr13: i'll see if i can fleabay it.. our local suppliers charge an arm and a leg for'em | 21:32 |
| C-S-B | soreau: enlighten me please. | 21:32 |
| Markopotomus | soreau: (nasty old AGP card) | 21:32 |
| anon1 | Markopotomus > I have that card and dumped it for a cheap nvidia - miles of difference | 21:32 |
| soreau | Markopotomus: Alright, so you want to do 'dpkg -l|grep fgrlx' and then apt-get remove --purge all the packages that have 'ii' next to them (meaning installed packages) | 21:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Nvidia had some nice low price fanless cards when i looked a few months ago. :) | 21:32 |
| usr13 | FiReSTaRT: Try newegg or buy.com etc. | 21:33 |
| usr13 | FiReSTaRT: Or ebay | 21:33 |
| Markopotomus | anon1: It's an old system - I just updated my main system, with an overclocked Geforce GTX 260. | 21:33 |
| anon1 | aria.co.uk is good for cheap cards if u are in uk | 21:33 |
| FiReSTaRT | usr: actually on fleabay it's in the $65-80 range | 21:33 |
| FiReSTaRT | usr13 | 21:33 |
| Markopotomus | soreau: ok! *makes a note* I shall do that. Thankyou :) | 21:33 |
| soreau | C-S-B: When you install fglrx, it over writes some other important files needed for the open radeon driver to work so xf86-video-ati cannot work while fglrx remains installed on the system | 21:33 |
| maxo | usr13: I also have the download problem in firefox on windows. So perhaps it's an ISP issue - but then wget works fine, so how is this possible? | 21:33 |
| schummelpilz | hi, ive got this problem (need it for djmount/upnp): sudo modprobe fuse | 21:33 |
| schummelpilz | FATAL: Module fuse not found. | 21:33 |
| [R] | schummelpilz: fuse is built into the kernel | 21:34 |
| C-S-B | soreau: cheers. I take it that it rules X11? | 21:35 |
| usr13 | maxo: May very well be a problem with the ISP because I've not had nay problem like that and haven't heard anyone else complain about it, so... you may be on to it there. | 21:35 |
| Spike1506 | i wanna dual screen but my "left" screen is always the default one, how do i change this? | 21:35 |
| anon1 | hmm maybe your fuse is blown replace with a higher amp one. :) | 21:35 |
| osiris | lol | 21:35 |
| FiReSTaRT | usr13: i can find 5000 pro for $65 locally.. but i wanted to spend $30 MAX as there's no personal benefit to using the cam | 21:35 |
| soreau | C-S-B: You could say that. It's more of a libGL.so issue | 21:35 |
| [R] | Spike1506: swap their positions | 21:35 |
| * Dr_Willis seconds what [R] says.. its built in - no longer needed to load it. | 21:35 | |
| Dr_Willis | ls | 21:35 |
| Spike1506 | [R], tried that, no luck | 21:35 |
| * anon1 plugs a 13amp fuse into his toaster | 21:36 | |
| [R] | Spike1506: huh? that makes no sense | 21:36 |
| maxo | usr13: is it possible though that it could be an ISP problem, and yet wget can still download a file? Like is it able to initiate the transfer in some different way to firefox? | 21:36 |
| anon1 | maxo - reinstall firefox | 21:36 |
| Spike1506 | [R], i know | 21:36 |
| neeon | Hello :) I'm planing to install ubuntu 9.0.4 on my new acer aspire one 751h. I've just tryed to boot it with live-cd (from an usb-stick) and it seems slow..? Is this because of the live-cd? An also, I could play music, videos etc. and I was not able to search for the drivers either.. | 21:36 |
| [R] | Spike1506: no... i mean you make no sense | 21:36 |
| Spike1506 | ohw lol | 21:37 |
| neeon | *could NOT play music, video etc.. | 21:37 |
| maxo | anon1: I tried the newest release from mozilla.com, and with a new profile, and I still had the same problem | 21:37 |
| SlickMcRunFast | Any Wesnoth fans? #ugn (ubuntu game night) | 21:37 |
| anon1 | neeon: have you tried the netbook mix - I use it on mine and its nice and fast | 21:37 |
| [R] | neeon: yes, the cd is quite slow | 21:37 |
| Dr_Willis | neeon: depends on the codecs of the video/music files. | 21:37 |
| vallhalla81 | hey all | 21:37 |
| anon1 | whats a westhnoth ? | 21:37 |
| C-S-B | neeon: i use jaunty on an aao, it's awesome. | 21:37 |
| C-S-B | neeon: only prob that could make it slow is ram or that you have the ssd | 21:37 |
| schummelpilz | [R]: Does this mean I do not have to load the module? then theres another one: djmount -o allow_other /media/upnp gives me: fusermount: entry for /media/upnp not found in /etc/mtab | 21:37 |
| neeon | anon1: Yes.. but it dont look that good.. i want it to look like regular | 21:37 |
| Dr_Willis | neeon: my AAO also runs jaunty very well. | 21:38 |
| coleys | [R]: Not when booted from usb =o | 21:38 |

| SlickMcRunFast | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1208273 | 21:38 |
| Dr_Willis | neeon: you can easially use the normal gnome desktop on the netbook-remix-dition | 21:38 |
| [R] | coleys: then its not a cd... now is it? | 21:38 |
| coleys | [R]: No it isn't =P Like he stated. | 21:38 |
| schummelpilz | [R]: If fuse is in the kernel it wont be listed trough lsmod, right? | 21:38 |
| soreau | [R]: You haughty bastard you. Hi! ;) | 21:38 |
| Dr_Willis | neeon: i reccomend the netbook remix. it will have a more optmized kernel and other tweaks also | 21:38 |
| C-S-B | Dr_Willis: i like the nbr. :) | 21:38 |
| SlickMcRunFast | anon1, its a turn based strategy game | 21:39 |
| [R] | schummelpilz: of course it won't be in lsmod... and if you are getting errors then you are doing it wrong | 21:39 |
| Dr_Willis | C-S-B: i dident. :) | 21:39 |
| neeon | Dr_Willis: Is there a tutorial how to get it to look regular? | 21:39 |
| Dr_Willis | neeon: theres an icon in the menus somewhere for it.. and the AAO forums/wiki pages document most things | 21:39 |
| [R] | coleys: oh hrm... musta missed that | 21:39 |
| Dr_Willis | 'Linux: Your os - Your way!' | 21:39 |

| JuJuBee | Montie1: u ever use kino? | 21:45 |
| Montie1 | Ive got mythbuntu working - that was fecking hard work I tell you | 21:45 |
| Dr_Willis | cattellar: server kernelk can access more ram i think.. but thats not really a gooe comaprison. | 21:45 |
| cattellar | [R], with the server kernel you get up to 64gb in ram, so it would detect my 4gb of ram | 21:46 |
| abenthy | hi, is there a way to use the good old intrepid gmd theme under jaunty? please tell me | 21:46 |

| guntbert | CrAzYoNi: np :) | 21:47 |

| Montie1 | Ubuntu is not great at dealing with windows sharing, i recommend a wins server for everyone | 21:47 |
| Dr_Willis | cattellar: yes. | 21:47 |

| Dr_Willis | abenthy: no idea.. try gnome-look.org or try the forums perhaps.. I dont bend over too far backwards for gdm themes.. thers 100000's to chose from | 21:48 |
| Montie1 | i also recommend clarkconnect for linux newbies that want a server setup with some easy to setup features. oddly never tried linux server.... | 21:48 |
| Montie1 | cattella - 64bit | 21:48 |
| abenthy | Dr_Willis: thanks, but i tried gnome-look already :/ | 21:49 |

| UnderSampled | but it does boot, and I can tell that it is ubuntu from windows | 21:53 |

| pw-toxic | what will be new in ubuntu 9.10? | 21:54 |
| UnderSampled | I don't feel like wasting another dvd, so I want to know if installing from a usb drive works just as well as from disk | 21:54 |

| ubottu | UnderSampled: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more | 21:55 |
| fccf | Montie1: i can see that you are new around here... please keep your comments to yourself unless you "know" something, this is a support channel and as such we like to keep off-topic stuff, strictly #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:55 |
| icedtea | Montie1: I might have found it, ty | 21:55 |
| UnderSampled | guntbert: I used the md5sum on the iso file, and it checked out | 21:55 |
| Montie1 | icedtea - goodluck ! | 21:56 |
| UnderSampled | [R]: Your disks | 21:56 |
| [R] | UnderSampled: ? | 21:56 |
| OttifantSir | UnderSampled: Was it a DVD-iso you downloaded? | 21:56 |
| Montie1 | what sort of speeds do american people get for thier internet connections ? | 21:56 |
| UnderSampled | I could not run the disk check option in the disk menu | 21:56 |

| UnderSampled | OrrifantSir: there is a specific DVD version? | 21:56 |
| Montie1 | I was wondering how long it would take to download an ubuntu iso in america... | 21:57 |
| icedtea | depends on the type of connection you have | 21:57 |
| guntbert | Montie1: please take "chat" to #ubuntu-offtopic, thank you | 21:57 |

| Switch10 | Montie1: 1 hour | 21:58 |
| Montie1 | hmmm | 21:58 |
| OttifantSir | UnderSampled: There are DVD-iso builds of Ubuntu, yes. The iso you download from www.ubuntu.com is meant to be written on a CD, not a DVD. It can break things if you do so. Sometimes it does work though. | 21:58 |
| * Montie1 appreciates the simple answers. | 21:58 | |
| UnderSampled | by the way, I have had problems with this dvd burner before, but I got it to successfully burn an install for win7 | 21:58 |
| UnderSampled | after I updated the firmware (note, not driver), which I thought would carry through os installs | 21:59 |

| ScottG | I just did an rsync with delete and force options. I did it on my home directory. Well after I went to see if the two directories were the same size and there was about a 10MB difference. So I went off to compare directory sizes. First I went to my Desktop dir and saw that there was a 4 KB difference in a file. What would cause this? | 21:59 |
| * Montie1 also didnt consider the question as off topice as he was going to suggest downloading the ubuntu iso again. | 21:59 | |
| OttifantSir | UnderSampled: It may also help to not burn the disc at full speed, but choose one or two settings below max speed. | 21:59 |
| Montie1 | OttifantSir: excellent suggestion | 22:00 |
| Seveas | ScottG, you wrote to the file after rsync started? | 22:00 |
| ScottG | Seveas: positive i didn't. Its just a random pdf file | 22:00 |

| Seveas | ScottG, what was the exact command line? | 22:00 |
| UnderSampled | the disc does boot, but only the memory check option works | 22:01 |
| Seveas | rsync -av --delete should catch almost all. If it fails on some (size & time the same but contents not, happends with db-style files sometimes), rsync -avc --delete should do the trick (albeit much slower due to all the checksumming) | 22:01 |
| ScottG | Seveas: rsync -avvh --itemize-changes --delete-during --force --progress --stats --exclude=logs/ --exclude=tmp/ --exclude=.local/share/Trash/ --out-format="%t %o %m | %f %i %l %M " --log-file-format="%t %o %m | %f %i %l %M " --log-file=/home/scott/logs/rsync/homesync.log -e 'ssh -p 50022' /home/scott scott@scott-desktop:/backup/home | 22:02 |
| DarkNeo | since I install Jaunty my bash scripts no longer work properly, even a simple export TESTEXPORT=test doesn't actually set TESTEXPORT, is this something to do with new security? | 22:02 |
| ScottG | Seveas: I looked again and it seems like all the files have a 4kb difference. The remote fs is ext3 and my local fs is ext4 | 22:02 |
| OttifantSir | I've seen another one today that burned a CD-iso to a DVD and didn't get it to work. He got a little more out of it than you though. So, if you've burned a CD-iso to a DVD, and still have the iso, burn it to a CD this time and try. Or check out !unetbootin | 22:03 |
| Pirate_Hunter | does anyone know of a good tutorial to install ISPConfig and set it up? | 22:03 |

| [R] | DarkNeo: when you export in a script, its exported for inside the script, once the script ends its gone | 22:09 |
| [R] | DarkNeo: if you want to export stuff into the current evinronment, use the source command | 22:09 |

| twig11 | kevdog: when I rebooted, network manager applet asked permission to access a network password file or something ( I can't remember the specifics) and after I gave permission, it tried to join the network, but hung for a long time before asking me for a key. after I entered the key, it hung again for awhile and didn't connect. Now CLI trick doesn't work either, so I'm online with my laptop again. | 22:41 |
| kevdog | twig11: So at least it tried!!! | 22:42 |
| kevdog | twig11: Cycle the driver once again and see if you can connect | 22:42 |
| twig11 | kevdog: Well, yeah you could look at it that way. | 22:42 |
| Pirate_Hunter | which signature algorithm is better RSA or DSA, which will give better security? | 22:42 |
| FloridaGuy | i have a 17 inch LCD tv...with svideo..my nvidia card has svideo on it...how well would that work as a monitor...or i can by an svideo vga adapter | 22:42 |
| FloridaGuy | for a few dollors | 22:43 |
| twig11 | kevdog: I cycled the driver once already since it failed. | 22:43 |
| [R] | FloridaGuy: it'll owrk good enough, and no | 22:43 |
| twig11 | kevdog: and it still doesn't work. | 22:43 |
| FloridaGuy | [R], whats the an no? | 22:43 |
| [R] | FloridaGuy: you asked two things | 22:43 |
| kevdog | Pirate_Hunter: that is a loaded question -- RSA allows for SHA2 family of hashes unless you specifically enable dsa2 which isnt backwards compatible in some systems | 22:43 |
| FloridaGuy | so no to the adapter | 22:44 |
| CleanLaundry | whats the command to show error messges, | 22:44 |
| kevdog | twig11: Does iwlist scan show a signal strength | 22:44 |
| kevdog | CleanLaundry: dmesg? | 22:44 |
| Pirate_Hunter | kevdog, to tell you the truth i aint sure what to choose but ive been given the option of either of them so what would you choose? | 22:44 |
| CleanLaundry | kevdog, yup thanks, forgot what it was :p | 22:44 |
| CleanLaundry | kevdog, what file does that print out from? | 22:45 |
| loois | how can I update to karmic kernel + intel drivers exclusively? | 22:45 |
| kevdog | Pirate_Hunter: RSA is now (as of the last 3 months -- the de-facto GPG standard) RSA used to be patent encumbered -- but now its not. DSA has always been free. I'd go with RSA if I were you! | 22:45 |
| twig11 | kevdog: I'm waiting on dhclient after cycling it again. one upside: I've memorized the commands needed. :-) | 22:46 |
| kevdog | twig11: See how easy it really is?! | 22:46 |
| Pirate_Hunter | kevdog, ok will do so | 22:46 |
| twig11 | kevdog: yeah not bad | 22:46 |

| [R] | Hoss: 8.04 and 8.10 aren't kernel versions | 22:50 |
| Hoss | [R]: explain the difference then pls | 22:50 |
| [R] | Hoss: those are versions of ubuntu | 22:51 |
| carpediem1 | giaco_: try installing libflashsupport and seeing if that helps | 22:51 |
| Pirate_Hunter | kevdog, not sure but here is the site link http://www.ispconfig.org/downloads.htm | 22:51 |
| Hoss | [R]: is an upgrade from .04 to .10 possible and if so, why would be the benefits? | 22:51 |
| Hoss | [R]: *what would be the benefits. | 22:52 |
| [R] | Hoss: yes its possible | 22:52 |
| [R] | you would get newer versions of thigns | 22:52 |
| [R] | bug fixes | 22:52 |
| [R] | etc | 22:52 |
| [R] | why upgrade anything in the computer world | 22:52 |
| twig11 | kevdog: Here's my output from iwlist scan: http://pastebin.com/ma044955 | 22:52 |
| Hoss | [R]: is there a guild for this process and is there potential for older programs that I currently have installed not working after the upgrade. | 22:53 |
| giaco_ | carpediem1, it's already installed. Probably I've to point out that I'm not talking to embedded videos like youtube (flash) but embedded videos where the player is not flash but comes from the OS ( actually I don't know which one, but it looks like totem ) | 22:53 |

| Andorin | Does anyone know why Songbird and Exaile would play some music files quieter than others, but Amarok plays them all at equal volume? | 22:53 |
| kevdog | twig11: Why is the ESSID listed twice? Did you do a sudo iwlist scan? | 22:53 |
| carpediem1 | Andorin: perhaps Amorok does normalization ? | 22:54 |
| twig11 | kevdog: no | 22:54 |
| twig11 | just iwlist scan | 22:54 |
| kevdog | Try sudo iwlist scan -- It refreshes the cache | 22:55 |

| dysfunctional | it goes to another screen, saying something about not being able to connect to a session on the localhost | 22:55 |
| twig11 | kevdog: looks like the same result. | 22:55 |
| Andorin | carpediem1: Normalization... a function that sets track volumes? | 22:56 |
| dysfunctional | i have been messing around with the xorg.conf file lately | 22:56 |
| Hidendra | Has anyone ever experienced gcc reporting `gcc: /usr/lib:: No such file or directory`? :3 | 22:56 |
| kevdog | twig11: Do me a favor -- because something is jacked up -- go reset your router -- or turn it off and then plug it back it -- something screwed up | 22:56 |
| carpediem1 | Andorin: yes. A player with normalization (not sure if amorok does) would make the volume roughly the same for all tracks | 22:56 |
| VCoolio | rainwalker: run gnome-system-monitor from a terminal, do the same and check if there is a comprehensible error message | 22:57 |
| twig11 | kevdog: I'm not the network adminstrator and I'm not sure I can even get access to the router. Is the second essid a result of trying to manually enter that network in network manager earlier? | 22:58 |

| nsgn | hello all. i've got a new Dell Vostro 1320 notebook. I've loaded it with 9.04 and am enjoying getting to know the (new to me) OS. Hardware support is pretty much flawless save for one item....the microphone. I've been googling periodically over the week i've owned the machine and find little info on getting the 1320's mic working under ubuntu, so I'm here in hopes that someone knowledgeable could share some useful information with me. | 22:59 |
| nsgn | Coming from BSD so my knowledge of *nix is decent, but still a bit fresh on ubuntu itself. | 22:59 |
| twig11 | kevdog: there's a wireless bridge between me and the router. I'll go cycle that at least. | 22:59 |
| kevdog | twig11: No its not -- Ive seen that happen before -- Was that output the same before the reboot? | 22:59 |
| carpediem1 | giaco_: could always uninstall that plugin. | 22:59 |
| twig11 | kevdog: no, before the reboot there was just one listing. | 23:00 |
| kevdog | twig11: notice how the addresses are different? | 23:00 |

| twig11_ | how? | 23:01 |
| Ademan | cafree: probably /usr/lib (that should be where zlib.so or libz.so is | 23:01 |

| nsgn | bonobo: how might i identify the specific driver required? sorry to be uninformed on ubuntu, but what is the constructor's site? | 23:05 |
| [R] | Ademan: i'm in a 1bedroom apartment and i'm on the otherside of a wall of it | 23:05 |
| kevdog | twig11: Cycle the driver then do a manual connect without typing the essid command but rather the above command but use wlan0 and the address of the AP with the highest quality as reported by sudo iwlist scan | 23:05 |
| Ademan | and the interference in the local area (for instance my access point is sitting on top of a computer, below a tv, and next to a printer, my connectivity SUCKS) | 23:05 |

| GiJ | Hey guys, I was wondering what the fastest Ubuntu based distro is | 23:07 |
| guntbert | !best | GiJ | 23:07 |
| ubottu | GiJ: 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. | 23:07 |
| bluebird421 | VCoolio, yes. Perhaps a url would be easiest. It's http://conky.linux-hardcore.com/?page_id=1258 | 23:07 |
| [R] | Ademan: but 2.5 is like 20mbits... and wireless is supposed to be like 50 i thought | 23:07 |
| kevdog | GiJ: I don't know but id take a look at crunch bang | 23:08 |
| lucaszep | Ademan, yes, the website replies me: "loading" and I can't access it | 23:08 |
| VCoolio | rainwalker: that's not really helping. Sorry. Use top or htop in terminal; you'll need to install the latter but that´s the easiest to use. | 23:08 |
| Ademan | [R]: indeed, but that's in an absolutely ideal setup with no obstructions | 23:08 |
| kevdog | !#! | 23:08 |
| fantazam | my modified updated ubuntu hardy is fastest :) | 23:08 |
| darkwind | Heya folks. =) | 23:08 |
| Ademan | GiJ: like kevdog said, crunchbang is designed for speed, whether or not it's actually the fastest, i have no idea | 23:08 |
| [R] | Ademan: i should move the laptop into the room with the AP and see | 23:08 |
| bluebird421 | I haven't tried fluxbuntu but I've heard it's fast. Also Xubuntu. | 23:08 |
| kevdog | !crunchbang | 23:08 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about crunchbang | 23:08 |
| darkwind | So, I've tried installing 8.10 and 9.04 (both of which fail with a "panic: early exception" error, however 8.04 works. | 23:09 |
| fantazam | try mint xfce or fluxbox or Pc-Os | 23:09 |
| cached | on my server, it seems i only have internet access as root. whta could the problem be? | 23:09 |
| darkwind | Anyone know what could be causing these panics? | 23:09 |
| kevdog | Hey I just threw it out there | 23:09 |
| darkwind | (panic happens at the initial point of installation) | 23:09 |
| VCoolio | bluebird421: ok, I see. Aren't there a lot of ${goto xx} tags? Remove those of give them the same value to have it straight | 23:09 |
| GiJ | And is Fluxbuntu an official release? | 23:09 |
| Ademan | [R]: i suppose, i wouldn't concern myself with it too much though, unless you need more than what you're getting | 23:09 |
| GiJ | Like with an update every 6 months | 23:09 |
| Ademan | GiJ: i don't believe so, and they haven't released a 9.04 version if i remember correctly | 23:10 |
| [R] | Ademan: no, because my internet is only 200KB/s | 23:10 |
| dysfunctional | Does anyone know why I dont get to my log in screen, but to a screen asking to connect to a session of some sort in ubuntu? | 23:10 |
| cached | and only google seems to work | 23:10 |
| fantazam | so did anyone used remastersys for ubuntu i have 1 question..?? | 23:10 |
| darkwind | Also... installed 8.04, did a dist-upgrade to 8.10, and got the early panic there... it has to be something with the kernel.. I'm running a new i7 setup, 12gb ram, x58 chipset... | 23:10 |
| kevdog | Crunchbang released a 9.04 | 23:10 |
| GiJ | so the fastest distro (without any new apps installed) would be Xubuntu? Thanks | 23:10 |
| fantazam | yea | 23:10 |
| owen1 | (xubuntu) i run gnome-terminal and get: "Failed to contact the GConf daemon; exiting." any clue? | 23:10 |
| bluebird421 | VCoolio: thanks, I'll try that. But will I need some kind of labels, to tell it where to be? | 23:11 |
| kevdog | GiJ: I'm not sure if that's entirely accurate | 23:11 |
| [R] | GiJ: no, the fastest would be not running X | 23:11 |
| Ademan | owen1: yeah, your gconf-daemon isn't running haha... | 23:11 |
| fantazam | btw apps doeent affect on system speed like on winblows | 23:11 |
| fantazam | no registry no bloat | 23:11 |
| fantazam | only libs | 23:11 |
| owen1 | Ademan: how to run this? | 23:11 |
| Pirate_Hunter | can someone tell me the name of the package that holds mysql header files? | 23:11 |
| GiJ | How do you mean [R] | 23:11 |
| kevdog | Whats the most bloated lib? | 23:11 |
| [R] | GiJ: i mean console | 23:11 |
| Ademan | owen1: try running 'gnome-settings-daemon &' then gnome-terminal | 23:11 |
| rTk_cool | here's a noob question, whats the fastest way to get from xp to ubuntu while keeping xp incase i don't like ubuntu or just so im not lost if i can't figure ubuntu out | 23:12 |
| darkwind | Pirate_Hunter: apt-cache search mysql | grep -i dev ? | 23:12 |
| GiJ | Oh yeah, should've said I meant the graphical distro's :) | 23:12 |
| anka-ar | Did they see this http://new.flyupload.com/?, it is the ubuntu emblem | 23:12 |
| Ademan | gnome-terminal requiring gconf is just silly though... | 23:12 |
| anka-ar | mhh | 23:12 |
| anka-ar | http://new.flyupload.com/ | 23:12 |
| kevdog | dual boot! | 23:12 |
| anka-ar | this | 23:12 |
| fantazam | most bloated lib.. hm i dont know but there are some programs that autostart whit ubuntu some big programs maybe but just can disable it whit rcconf | 23:12 |
| guntbert | rTk_cool: test it with the live CD for a while | 23:12 |
| [R] | rTk_cool: just install ubuntu and select the otpion to keep windows | 23:12 |
| VCoolio | bluebird421: it's all the ${offset } things btw, not ${goto}; and it's not really required, just a newline will put everything straight | 23:12 |
| Ademan | rTk_cool: dual boot, it's rather easy to do | 23:12 |
| owen1 | Ademan: will try. thanks | 23:12 |
| Ademan | owen1: no problem | 23:12 |
| fantazam | rcconf is must have tool | 23:12 |

| rTk_cool | yeah but should i download ubuntu to a flash drive or to a cd | 23:13 |
| GiJ | What does rcconf do? | 23:13 |
| th0r | Pirate_Hunter: there are a number of them....all start libmysql and all end -dev | 23:13 |
| kevdog | GiJ: I still think the openbox window manager might be faster than xcfe -- | 23:13 |
| GodfatherofEire | havin a slight problem with installing a deb file | 23:13 |
| rTk_cool | im actually gonna eat dinner, hopefully u can help me when i get back | 23:13 |

| fantazam | disable or enable autostarted apps | 23:13 |
| rTk_cool | or tomorrow actually | 23:13 |
| GodfatherofEire | just restarted, tried to install, says to close all the other ones first | 23:13 |
| kevdog | WAVIN: yes it is | 23:13 |
| GiJ | kevdog How do I install another WM then? | 23:13 |
| fantazam | when you install rcconf type in terminal sudo rcconf | 23:13 |
| fantazam | it is like 50kb program lol | 23:13 |
| GodfatherofEire | is it dpkg the command to fix that or something? | 23:13 |
| Ademan | GiJ: i second that, openbox would be faster. HOWEVER, xfce is plenty fast, unless you're on a 386.... | 23:13 |
| twig11_ | kevdog: still not working. | 23:13 |
| twisted_ | hey all, i need to figure out how to set up a adhoc so i can share my existing wifi connection any ideas? | 23:14 |
| Pirate_Hunter | th0r, darkwind, the ones im looking for are supposed to be in something like - MySQL header files which normally come in a package called mysql-devel, mysql-dev, libmysql-devel or something similar | 23:14 |
| kevdog | twig11: sucks! | 23:14 |
| twig11_ | kevdog: I followed that command by sudo iwconfig key XXXXX | 23:14 |
| fantazam | or install BUM bootup manager same ike rcconf but in GUI | 23:14 |
| twig11_ | kevdog: was that correct? | 23:14 |
| kevdog | twig11: then did you ask for a dhcp? | 23:14 |

| kevdog | twig11: I'm not certain -- try to connect standard way then adding the new line under the essid statement | 23:18 |
| owen1 | Ademan: after running it i see blue line at the bottom and alt keys, ctrl, page up/down stopped working. also my layout turn to query (i use dvork). | 23:18 |
| mobi-sheep | fantazam: Blackbox? | 23:18 |
| GiJ | [R] fantazam:) | 23:18 |
| kevdog | GiJ: openbox is ok -- asking around here which is the best window manager is just walking into a mine field. Although e17 is sexy! | 23:18 |
| [R] | GiJ: lol | 23:18 |
| owen1 | Ademan: maybe xubuntu is not suppose to use gnome-terminal? | 23:18 |
| fantazam | fluxbox is not bad it is fast and it can be pretty but you have to remove xfce or gnome and all gnome libs | 23:19 |
| GiJ | Ok, one more question then: How do I install another WM? | 23:19 |
| owen1 | GiJ: try awesome | 23:19 |
| [R] | fantazam: you don't "have" to | 23:19 |
| th0r | owen1, Ademan xfce should use xfce4-terminal | 23:19 |
| owen1 | GiJ: install it with aptitude and change your .xinitrc | 23:19 |
| fantazam | why do you want to have fluxbox and gnome | 23:19 |
| kevdog | fantazam: How do you remove all of the gnome libs? | 23:19 |
| Dantix | hi all, I've succesfuly configured my cellphone connection using bluetooth, but I' don't know how can I access the cellphone's folders, can anyone help me? | 23:19 |
| fantazam | best to choose some fluxbox based distro | 23:19 |
| fantazam | like mint fluxbox | 23:20 |
| VCoolio | GiJ: via synaptic or apt-get; then in your login screen click "sessions", choose your wm and login | 23:20 |
| Peter_ | .Xauthorizations - packge manager can't find it. Who creates it and what permissions? | 23:20 |
| owen1 | th0r: i am looking for termainl that support font increase on the fly | 23:20 |
| twig11_ | kevdog: after the essid statement AND the key? | 23:20 |
| owen1 | th0r: terminator can do it, and i wanted to try gnome-terminal | 23:20 |
| th0r | owen1: if you want gnome-terminal you are best off to just run gnome | 23:20 |
| GiJ | Ok thanks guys | 23:20 |
| kevdog | twig11: sure -- we are just trying things out -- Im not certain -- trial and erro | 23:20 |
| owen1 | th0r: over my dead body (-: | 23:20 |
| fantazam | crunchbang is not bad but littebit unstable not 100% stable distro | 23:21 |
| fantazam | mint fluxbox is very stable | 23:21 |
| kevdog | GiJ: openbox is wierd at first. you have to configure it to look sexy which isnt hard -- but at first it seems difficult. | 23:21 |
| GiJ | kevdog Yeah shouldn't be a problem | 23:21 |
| owen1 | kevdog: can it handle 2 monitors nicely? | 23:22 |
| arand | jrib: sorry for delay, the "key for 3rd level"-options might make something happen... | 23:22 |
| gogeta | owen1: nope lol | 23:22 |
| fantazam | i prefer hardy over interpid much faster and more stable for me,jaunty is great but my g card doesent work whit it and some more things | 23:22 |
| kevdog | owen1: I have no idea -- Ive never tried | 23:22 |
| Dantix | hi all, I've succesfuly configured my cellphone connection using bluetooth, but I' don't know how can I access the cellphone's folders, can anyone help me? Is that possible? Do I need to "mount" it in some way? :S | 23:22 |

| Kamokow | I have Ubuntu 9.04 hooked up to a wireless network VIA a wireless bridge using a Cat. 5 cable. It works for awhile, then will randomly disconnect from the internet, it has a static IP different from the computer it is bridged with and it does work for awhile before disconnecting (then will sometimes reconnect awhile later), how can I make it always stay connected, because sometimes I get disconnected from pidgin conversations and such. | 23:24 |
| kevdog | twig11: do you get anything from the end of dmesg that might provide a clue? | 23:24 |

Not sure how one would work with bluetooth. I couldn't access my bluetooth phone from my laptop but I could (with my friend's bluetooth phone). | 23:32 |
| jrib | harjot: have you run a memtest? | 23:32 |
| OttifantSir | Dantix: run sudo apt-cache search obex-data-server in a terminal and see if you have it installed. If not, sudo apt-get install obex-data-server It will give you a Bluetooth-icon in the systray which you can right-click, then select Browse files on device. Then you choose the device you want to connect to. | 23:32 |

| OttifantSir | mobi-sheep: There are parts of the Bluetooth protocol missing from an install of bluez. obex-data-server is what makes you able to send files to ie. a cellphone and browse the files on it via Bluetooth. Without it, you can only pair a device and receive files from it, not send to it. | 23:37 |

| OttifantSir | ashbringer: I'm sorry, but from what I can see, they aren't automatically installed. But, the whole point of making a custom CD is to get a personalised system up and running at once, right? So, probably, somewhere further along in the guide, it will explain how to do that. (Assuming you haven't read all of it yet) If you read through it, and there's no mention of it, try asking again. | 23:55 |
| twig11_ | gogeta: I understand. | 23:56 |
| ashbringer | OttifantSir: I have read through all of it. It isn't mentioned. | 23:56 |
| ashbringer | So then, how can I preseed an arbitrary repository from the liveCD? | 23:56 |
| manny | hi manny running jaubty jackalope, i need help installing adobe air | 23:56 |
| hans_ | olimones, i'm not in coding :/ and i have the same problem with wifi on a pavilion.... im stuckt to my modem now... | 23:56 |
| OttifantSir | ashbringer: If you hadn't asked the question, I would probably have made a custom install-CD and just assumed they were automatically installed. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. | 23:56 |
| twig11_ | gogeta: I actually did all those commands before, and I keep getting the message "No working leases in persistent database" | 23:56 |
| OttifantSir | Try also typing !automate > ashbringer in this channel | 23:57 |
| ashbringer | !automate > ashbringer | 23:58 |
| ubottu | ashbringer, please see my private message | 23:58 |
| ashbringer | OttifantSir: I'm less interested in automatic install and more interested in adding packages to be installed by default. | 23:58 |
| twig11_ | gogeta: the commands quit working after I put the Network Manager applet in the tray and rebooted. It asked for access to passwords and I gave it, then it hung. I removed Network Manager and rebooted. that's where I am now. | 23:58 |
| === adante_ is now known as adante | ||
| olimones | i'll keep searching and report as soon as i get something | 23:59 |
