| censushq | can i do that | 00:08 |
| edbian | sp219: What's the deal with this file? You should be able to cat anything (just most things return gibberish cause they're not strings to begin with) | 00:09 |
| censushq | can i create a virtual partiation | 00:09 |
| bastidrazor | censushq, in Vbox you don't need a separate partition, it will create a file on Ubuntu. | 00:09 |
| censushq | how | 00:09 |
| sp219 | edbian:I can cat it | 00:09 |
| edbian | sp219: Gibberish? | 00:09 |
| censushq | when i go to setup it asks for what hardisk | 00:09 |
| sp219 | the "file" itself contains "<not supported>" | 00:09 |
| censushq | i am using ose version | 00:09 |
| sp219 | it's not cat saying "<not supported>", those are the contents | 00:09 |
| edbian | sp219: Oh! | 00:09 |
| sp219 | so I assume the kernel isn't able to read the brightness value | 00:10 |
| edbian | sp219: Odd. You can set the brightness... | 00:10 |
| sp219 | but somehow the OSD knows, though I don't know how | 00:10 |

| censushq | i think i got it | 00:11 |
| censushq | thanks everyone | 00:11 |
| sebsebseb | censushq: you need to make a virtual hard disk, and do dynaically expanding and put like 60GB as the size | 00:11 |
| memiux | What can I do for reduce the number of childs of mysqld? like apache prefork or something | 00:12 |
| nanotube | sebsebseb: hah, 60gb, my whole hd is 40gb! my winxp vbox lives in an 8gb file. ;) | 00:12 |
| sebsebseb | nanotube: dynamically expanding, meaning the psyical virtual hard disk is only like 5GB by default it if XP SP3 | 00:13 |
| nanotube | sebsebseb: so 60g is "max" eh? | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | nanotube: the vm thinks it has 60GB, and can even go up to that size, if there's enough space on the psyical partition | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | nanotube: no 2TB you can do for a dynamically expanding VM | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | nanotube: ,but who has a 2TB hard disk? hardly anyone? | 00:13 |
| nanotube | sebsebseb: i mean, when you set an expanding 60gb partition, 60gb is max | 00:13 |
| nanotube | not that it's the absolute max | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | nanotube: yes 60gb is the size and that's that | 00:14 |
| qbrix | What package is the default sound recorder? | 00:14 |
| edbian | nanotube: sebsebseb: Then 60GB is how much XP thinks it has | 00:14 |

| bob__ | how do I up my screen res? | 00:14 |

| qbrix | and to that I'm getting: Unable to locate package gnome-sound-recorder | 00:15 |
| nanotube | sebsebseb: ah i see. pretty neat. is it possible to "convert" a vm that's set for a fixed 8gb size to a 'dynamically expanding' vm? | 00:17 |

| bastidrazor | Cevan, system>admin>hardware drivers | 00:24 |
| mezquitale | aka, you want to troubleshoot it one step at a time, disable encryption first just to make sure the devices are compatible with each other, dont broadcast the SSID | 00:24 |
| nanotube | sebsebseb: by "convert" i mean "opened it up with virtualbox, and installed the virtualbox guest tools on it" | 00:24 |
| aka | mezquitale: I fully understand your logic and usually would do that but I don't have access to the router for the next 10 days :\ | 00:24 |

| bucky | bob__: run nvidia-xconfig to get some screens in your xorg.conf | 00:24 |
| aka | s | 00:24 |
| Cevan | bastidrazor, I've checked even after installing drivers and there's nothing in that window. | 00:25 |
| bastidrazor | Cevan, you could try xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd package.. | 00:25 |
| sebsebseb | nanotube: ok | 00:25 |
| mezquitale | aka, ok so whenever youre in front of the router you can come back and ask for help, I had the same problem with an old laptop, turns out encryption wasn't supported in linux for that old card, encryption worked fine with windows though | 00:26 |
| nanotube | sebsebseb: i don't really use it much at all, and i have a couple gigs of free space in that partition, so i thought "hey, this dynamic thing sounds pretty nice - maybe i can shave off 2gb of disk usage" :) | 00:26 |
| bob__ | bucky tried that, 320x240 640x480 are the only res it offers, and I can't see a way to manually enter a higher resolution | 00:26 |
| sebsebseb | nanotube: yep that's the whole idea, to save psyical hard disk space, you use dynamically expanding | 00:27 |

| nanotube | sebsebseb: btw, would you happen to know off the top of your head whether it's worth it to upgrade from 2.2.4 to 3.0.2 of vbox? any significant performance/other improvements there that you know off the top o fyour head? | 00:30 |

| Hillshum | gbear14275, is this on the desktop or on the one of the bars/panels? | 00:57 |
| erxin | which distro is more user-friendly Ubuntu or Fedora ? | 00:57 |
| bucky | bob__: dpkg -l nvidia-glx* and tell me which version of the nvidia driver you are using | 00:58 |
| TheNewGuy | FYI, Komposer is built on the NUV core so I would recommend Komposer. | 00:58 |
| linxeh | erxin: it depends how you define that | 00:58 |
| catalin205 | hello people I need some help please prv me | 00:58 |
| linxeh | catalin205: no. ask in the channel | 00:58 |
| Gnea | !ask | catalin205 | 00:58 |
| ubottu | catalin205: 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. :-) | 00:58 |
| erxin | I use Ubuntu atm, it works fine, except Firefox | 00:58 |
| Cevan | Bastidrazor, it just brought up the list for that command... should I just use the letters for display and size instead of -fb? | 00:58 |
| gbear14275 | Hillshum: top panel, right side and bottom panel right side | 00:58 |
| linxeh | erxin: what doesnt work with firefox ? | 00:58 |
| _mnemonic76 | I need to copy the same image to 25 usb keys (thumbdrives) is there a way to image several at a time? using dd? | 00:59 |
| bucky | TheNewGuy: what's the difference between the nvu package and the komposer package? | 00:59 |
| linxeh | _mnemonic76: dd, but you are going to hit contention on the USB bus | 00:59 |
| TheNewGuy | IT is true wysiwyg so it will be great for the casual web developer but obviously not adequate for pros that need more control. | 00:59 |
| _mnemonic76 | linxeh: How so? | 00:59 |
| bastidrazor | Cevan, type xrandr and see what resolutions it offers you. this is just a check you're not setting anything yet. | 00:59 |
| Hillshum | gbear14275, I think right clicking on the panel and clicking some "preferences" option or something will do the trick (not in front of gnome myself atm) | 01:00 |
| bastidrazor | Cevan, -fb tells it you're wanting to set 1280x1024 as your resolution | 01:00 |
| TheNewGuy | It looks like komposer fixes a lot of NUV problems and exstends the package. Komposer is really NUV, but several versions newer. | 01:00 |

| bob__ | bucky http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m19e1f8aa | 01:00 |
| bucky | TheNewGuy: nvu is the same package on ubuntu.. it's just an upgrade path that pulls in dependancies | 01:01 |
| Cevan | bastidrazor, apparently it'll still only go to 800x600, which I know it's gone higher on my old card. | 01:01 |

| fwaokda | anyone here use lottanzb and sometimes can't get their window to come up from being minimized? | 01:01 |
| bastidrazor | Cevan, which driver did you have installed before this latest one? | 01:01 |
| VCoolio | gbear14275: maybe you right clicked an icon on it and deleted, assuming you were deleting that icon but that means deleting the whole applet | 01:02 |
| bucky | bob__: i had to try different versions until i got one to work right... try installing nvidia-glx-71 and work up untill you find one that works.. that's not a very new card and you're using the latest driver which isn't always good | 01:03 |
| gbear14275 | ... Don't think so... but thats ok | 01:03 |
| TheNewGuy | OK, For the PROS out there helping people. IF someone comes on and says that after installing linux in a dual boot system, the computer will not log on to the net under window's, they have a valid issue. The only fix right now is to hard shut down of linux. Then the windows connection will work. Linux turns off the nic card when it shuts down. Windows does not and assumes the nic card is on. been going on since 2007. This | 01:03 |
| TheNewGuy | does not happen with all nic cards. | 01:03 |
| gbear14275 | thank you VCoolio | 01:03 |

| Cevan | bastidrazor, they were actually Nvidia drivers. Long story, don't want to explain why I'm using ATI now. | 01:05 |

| giaco_ | hello, I've a big big tremendous crash / bug in my ubuntu 9.04. EVERYTIME I open a video ( mplayer, vlc, totem or even inside the browser ) the screen turns black, the system become unresponsive, CTRL-ALT-CANC is not working and even consoles on CTRL-ALT-F<x> are no more responsive. The only thing that keeps working seems to be the acpi module because if I press the physical shut down button the system goes down after the shut down proces | 01:06 |
| giaco_ | s ( I can hear it working ) | 01:06 |
| CQS | can someone tlel me how to uninstall crossover? | 01:06 |
| bob__ | bucky it's a legacy driver for a legacy card, and the quadro series is the pro/CAD series cards | 01:07 |
| bob__ | bucky and its the one that the driver manager recomended. as far as performance goes it wrks, its just the resolution | 01:07 |
| jeffwheeler | Something about how Ubuntu is mounting my root fs is broken, because all the init processes fail due to it being mounted as ro. | 01:08 |
| rambo298 | giaco can you get to text mode with Alt-F2? | 01:08 |
| jeffwheeler | The fs itself appears clean, and /etc/fstab seems correct, too | 01:08 |
| giaco_ | rambo298, no | 01:08 |
| bucky | bob__: i'm just telling you my experience.. settng up x was a pain for me in jaunty.. it kinda put the fun back into linux for me | 01:09 |
| andrew_ | ok...how do i kill virtualbox? please | 01:09 |
| === andrew_ is now known as Guest79656 | ||
| bastidrazor | Cevan, the driver i had you install is showing the correct driver for that card. do gksudo displayconfig-gtk and see if you can make changes | 01:10 |
| rambo298 | giaco ctrl-alt-f1 does nothing? | 01:10 |
| bucky | bob__: btw which kernel are you using.. that sometimes has a bearing on how well nvidia drivers work | 01:11 |

| ervin067 | Hi, I am having problems gettin sound to come through my laptop speakers. If I plug headphones in I get sound. I am running Ubuntu 9.04 on a P-6860fx laptop. Any help would be appreciated | 01:12 |
| rambo298 | upgrading to 9.04 was very painful for me with my nvidia controller | 01:12 |
| bucky | me too rambo298 | 01:12 |
| bob__ | bucky using xubuntu with just the to current updates | 01:12 |
| Cevan | bastidrazor, Got the window open, and I can make changes... it won't "test" with anything related to Radeon, however. | 01:13 |
| rambo298 | i got real good with xorg.conf changes | 01:13 |
| Guest79656 | ervin067: this may seem stupid, but have you checked the volume control for your front speakers? | 01:13 |
| PelleTut | I'm trying to make a bootable usb stick with windows 7 from ubuntu. any ideas how to do this? | 01:13 |
| chrissharp123 | Guest79656: I was about to suggest that :-) | 01:13 |
| rambo298 | i understand shuttleworth's position on eulas but it hurts when someone with such market share like nvidia won't do open source GPL drivers | 01:13 |
| ervin067 | I have checked all the volume controls I can find | 01:13 |
| ervin067 | I dont think my laptop speakers have any external on/off switch | 01:14 |
| ervin067 | I've been messin with this for about an hour and been unsuccessfull | 01:14 |
| giaco_ | rambo298, as I said previously switching to console is not working, have you read that? | 01:14 |
| kpkeerthi | ervin067: right-click on the speaker icon (near system tray) -> volume control and ensure the volume levels for the speakers are OK | 01:14 |
| kpkeerthi | and not muted | 01:14 |
| Guest79656 | ervin067: there is a specific feature in "vloume control" for muting and/or adjusting the volume on your front speakers specifically | 01:15 |
| rambo298 | giaco yeah sorry ... if you can't switch then you are dead ... i had display issues with 9.04 but was always able to switch to text mode out of gdm ... what is your display controller? | 01:15 |
| purplenurple | I'm having trouble with my sound. I'm hearing buzzes and pops behind the music. anyone able to help? | 01:15 |
| ervin067 | No dice yet | 01:15 |
| hdon | purplenurple: hey, so am i. could that possibly be an ubuntu problem? | 01:15 |
| hdon | i assumed it could not possibly be an ubuntu problem | 01:16 |
| purplenurple | hdon, not sure ... I've been googling around trying a few things ... not sure why I have 3 separate controls for my audio | 01:16 |
| hdon | purplenurple: your hardware's audio capabilities are probably more complicated than you realize | 01:16 |
| Guest79656 | ervin067: Hate to harp on this, but also if you scroll to the right within volume control there is also a slider for "PC Speakers" | 01:16 |
| kyja | i like penis | 01:17 |
| Guest79656 | I am having some trouble myself...how to kill virtualbox | 01:17 |
| bastidrazor | Cevan, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver | 01:17 |
| rambo298 | giaco_: enter lspci -v | grep VGA and see what video controller you have ... you can go to http://ubuntuforums.org/ and see if you can find a relevant thread | 01:17 |
| wydoe | Good afternoon everyone. I am trying to set up a NFS and am confused with the Configuration. Does anyone have any experience with this? | 01:18 |
| ervin067 | I have master , headphones, pcm, and front | 01:18 |
| ervin067 | all are turned up, with none of them being muted | 01:18 |
| Hotcoral | ervin067, had the same issue the other way round.. U can get an extra control somewhere in the menus with a checkbox called "Headphones" (or so)". Make it visible and then uncheck it :) | 01:18 |
| purplenurple | hdon, i have onboard intel hd audio ... strange because on a fresh install it works perfect but now everything goes awry | 01:18 |
| kyja | do n e of u guys no how 2 fix my penis its limp | 01:18 |
| giaco_ | rambo298, I know my video controller, but I haven't found any similar issue in the forum | 01:18 |
| Guest79656 | ervin067: No horizontal scroll-bar at the bottom? | 01:18 |

| nofilicity | any reason why sound (ALSA) would suddenly stop working overnight? | 01:19 |
| kyja | fuck me | 01:19 |
| xrdodrx | :( | 01:19 |
| hdon | purplenurple: hmm, i don't know if i ever had "perfect" sound before "everything goes awry" | 01:20 |
| Hotcoral | ervin067, didn't find it 1st myself.. can't check the place now, either, since using wrong system.. | 01:20 |
| rambo298 | bucky: nvidia released new drivers for their GeForce devices on July 1 because of Linux ... that's what I ended up using, along with xorg.conf changes | 01:20 |
| ervin067 | I was following a website's fix to this issue, and installed Pulseaudio, I dont know if that would make a difference to you guys | 01:20 |
| purplenurple | hdon, we'll not perfect but the clicks and pops always seem to appear several days after a fresh install | 01:20 |
| bastidrazor | Cevan, everything i'm finding is poor support in 8.04 for your card. that page is probably the best route to go. | 01:20 |
| rambo298 | would someone please boot kyja | 01:20 |

| Cevan | bastidrazor, thanks for the site. If it's that bad for 8.04, and I can't seem to get it to work, might be a sign for me to try a new version. | 01:23 |
| rambo298 | x22: your question? | 01:23 |
| wydoe | I am trying to configure NFS with this site: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/network-file-system.html , and on the part where it says Configuration it has *(ro,sync,no_root_squash) | 01:23 |
| wydoe | and says i can replace * with one of the hostnames formats. What do they mean one of the hostname formats and what does the (ro,sync,no_root_squash) mean? I don't have that part in my configuration file. | 01:23 |
| x22 | where would i add text to print something above the "xx" login: part after the verbose boot | 01:23 |
| ju1c3 | can someone tell me what format the system sounds have to be in for ubuntu? | 01:23 |
| x22 | any | 01:23 |

| BlueLotus | whats up linux freaks | 01:29 |
| donavan_ | cevan ... yeah im using 9.04 now but the auto upgrade from 8.10 did something evil to the drivers for ATI and no amount on reinstalling the drivers seemed to help ... had something to do with the conf file and the way the new kernel used the drivers | 01:29 |
| rambo298 | donavan_: that happened to me with nvidia and i had to go back to the backed up xorg.conf and stitch in the monitor/terminal settings in the new "autorecognized" version | 01:30 |
| Helliana | anyone? | 01:30 |
| Scunizi | donavan_: sounds like you might have one of those ATI cards that Ati excluded from the new drivers that are needed with the new Xorg7 | 01:30 |
| bob__ | rambo298 yep can't get a higher res then 640x480 after switching monitors, this monitor is capable of more though as it used to be attached to my old mac | 01:31 |
| bace | hey all, i have a quick question about network interfaces and iwconfig, if anybody's willing to help | 01:31 |
| donavan_ | Scunizi ... could be but I did a fresh install and it works just fine now | 01:31 |

| rambo298 | bob__: so i did two things to fix when my screen/mouse locked up; 1) switched to text mode, and wget'ed the latest driver for my GeForce4 Nvidia, installed it and ran envy to reconfigure; 2) reconfiguration screwed up my xorg.conf, so I pulled the monitor/terminal section from my original that was backed up and put it in the current (this fixed my 640x480 max) | 01:35 |

| Jorge1 | what is a restricted driver | 01:35 |
| donavan_ | so anyone know why firefox keeps trying to open mp3 files in an embedded player rather than bringing up the download dialog box? | 01:36 |
| pablo0419 | everytime i get to put in the video ID, it says error open: -1 | 01:36 |
| bucky | ervin067: turn up the volume on the speaker icon (upper right corner) or run alsamixer and turn up pcm and all that | 01:36 |
| Helliana | PLEASE can someone help?! | 01:36 |
| Jorge1 | x22 what do you mean restricted drivers | 01:37 |
| bace | Anybody have any ideas why iwconfig would recognize eth1 as a wireless device (which it is), whereas ifconfig contends that it's an ethernet device? | 01:37 |
| ervin067 | Ive def tried the first | 01:37 |
| bucky | Jorge1: it's a driver bill gates doesn't want us to have | 01:37 |
| ervin067 | do i just type alsamixer in terminal to run it? | 01:37 |
| bucky | yup | 01:37 |
| x22 | yes | 01:37 |
| pablo0419 | x22 can u help, do u know wht may be wrong | 01:38 |
| ervin067 | They are all turned all the way up | 01:38 |

| Sinatra | does anybody got advice on how i could get a fairly new used desktop? | 01:38 |
| pablo0419 | craigslist | 01:39 |
| Hotcoral | ervin067, the "headphones" checkbox thing in alsamixer's choose channels (orwhateveritwas) menu.. should make it visible | 01:39 |
| bucky | ervin067: unplug the headphones? | 01:39 |
| Dr_iCe|iCeyBoI | anyone runs wine here? | 01:40 |
| bucky | Sinatra: ebay | 01:40 |
| pablo0419 | x22 u there?????????????? | 01:40 |
| ervin067 | Yeah, i unplug the headphones, Im not seeing the headphones checkbox in alsamixer | 01:40 |
| ervin067 | Do i need to switch the playback device somehow?? | 01:40 |

| rambo298 | Jcn: dude it's a shell script driven install; download the .run file, enter this command wherever you saved it "chmod 755 ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run"; then enter "sh ./ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run" | 02:44 |

| twig11 | Would someone please take a look at this output and tell me if it looks like something is malfunctioning with ndiswrapper? http://paste.ubuntu.com/224031/ I can't get the card to work on the machine where I got the output and I had it working on another Jaunty install on a different computer. | 02:46 |
| computer | hector can u help me with dyndns? | 02:46 |
| Manderson | Diablosblizz- don't forget to take into account that Linux will start the partition sequence at 1 whereas Grub starts at zero | 02:48 |
| Manderson | Diablosblizz- so, /dev/sda1 for instance will be (hd0,0) | 02:48 |
| Manderson | someone correct me if I'm wrong. | 02:48 |
| Diablosblizz | Manderson- So how do I figure out which sda my partition is? | 02:49 |
| Mene-Mene | Is there any reason when my repositories would suddenly change to getting i386 rather than x64 repositories and have to convert? | 02:49 |
| mattgyver | Diablosblizz, type 'sudo fdisk -l' in a terminal | 02:49 |
| Manderson | Diablosblizz- you can do a sudo fdisk -l | 02:49 |
| tonedevf | is there anything akin to mod_cband that is easily installed via binary in hardy server? The only feature needed is bandwidth throttling per connection. Thanks! | 02:50 |
| rednammoc | you can also figure out via dmesg | tail | 02:50 |
| rednammoc | works for usb-sticks | 02:50 |
| rednammoc | Diablosblizz: also df is usefull to get mounted devices | 02:51 |

| danny87 | i have the animated desktop running....but its running like a screen saver...how can i make it run on background like a wallpaper | 02:51 |
| mattgyver | diablosblizz, do a 'df -h' | 02:52 |
| Jcn | rambo i did what you said, but I got an error message at the end | 02:52 |
| Manderson | mattgyver- that will only show mounted filesystems. | 02:52 |
| Jcn | ./default_policy.sh does not support version...etc | 02:52 |
| Manderson | Diablosblizz- look at the fdisk -l output for ones that are formatted with HPFS/NTFS | 02:53 |
| Manderson | if you have more than one, we may need to format that a bit. | 02:53 |
| Manderson | not the drive, the command :D | 02:53 |
| Diablosblizz | Manderson: Alright, there is 3. | 02:53 |
| Diablosblizz | Manderson: Phew!!! | 02:53 |
| Manderson | just a sec | 02:53 |
| Diablosblizz | Okay thanks. | 02:53 |
| Jcn | rambo298: i got a ./default_policy.sh does not support version....etc | 02:53 |
| Jcn | said make sure that the version is being correctly set by iscurrentdistro | 02:54 |

| Mene-Mene | I removed it and it seems to be working better. | 03:02 |
| JuJuBee | geekneeus: what info do you want? It keeps failing near the end 99% using k3b and jaunty | 03:02 |
| leachim6|lt | hey... | 03:03 |
| leachim6|lt | I have ubuntu jaunty...and I just got a usb bluetooth dongle... | 03:03 |

| rambo298 | Mene-Mene: go check this; there may be a synaptic problem | 03:05 |
| Manderson | Diablosblizz- if you divide the block number by 1024, then divide again by 1024, you'll get the partition size in GB. | 03:05 |

| Diablosblizz | Maderson: right, cause 0 = 1. :P | 03:06 |
| Spikemcc | Jcn add medibuntu repository and add the ubuntu-restricted-extras package ... | 03:06 |

| geekneeus | k3b and the error message in google | 03:08 |

| d0wn3r | jdu, it gives me a problem when it tries to install.. | 03:14 |
| d0wn3r | jdu, ies4linux breaks | 03:15 |
| d0wn3r | hold on ill paste | 03:15 |
| jdu | d0wn3r, run it. try disabling the gui | 03:15 |

| SealV | adrian_2002ca, what are you trying to change? | 03:16 |
| jdu | d0wn3r, yeah, use the option that disables the gui, it will work fine after that | 03:16 |
| jdu | d0wn3r, isn't that a server side problem? | 03:16 |
| d0wn3r | jdu, might be.. i dont understand what the problem is | 03:17 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: when I click and drag on the desktop for example, an orange selection rectangle appears. I want to change the color of that to something else | 03:17 |
| danbhfive | d0wn3r: is the asp in html? | 03:17 |
| d0wn3r | jdu, i mean it wants me to use ie6 or safari.. but i useragentswitch to ie7 | 03:17 |
| SealV | adrian_2002ca, ok there are basically two ways to change it | 03:17 |
| Jcn | well crap I just used the synaptic option and installed ati drivers through that and now my screen is black with a colored static lines | 03:17 |

| Jcn | well crap I just used the synaptic option and installed ati drivers through that and now my screen is black with a colored static lines | 03:17 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: if it works in Safari it should also work in Firefox | 03:17 |
| FloodBot3 | Jcn: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:17 |
| SealV | adrian_2002ca, the easy way and the slily harder way | 03:17 |
| d0wn3r | danbhfive, yes, i think so. | 03:17 |
| RocketLauncher | lol Jcn | 03:17 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: ok, im listening | 03:18 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, i know.. when i installed safari in vmware the page still doesnt recognize that im using safari | 03:18 |
| SealV | adrian_2002ca, the easy way if your theme allows it (try this first) | 03:18 |
| jdu | d0wn3r, at any rate, it's as simple as running the ies4linux installer it with the no gui option | 03:18 |
| Jcn | what do I do now? | 03:18 |
| rednammoc | i have some problems to umount my device. it appears via df, but its not in the /dev/ folder. how to get the device out of the `mount` ? can someone help me plz ! | 03:18 |

| SealV | adrian_2002ca, go to appearance>>theme tab>>custamoize>>colors | 03:18 |

| SealV | adrian_2002ca, can you click any of the color boxes> | 03:19 |
| Jcn | i id xfix...didnt solve the problem | 03:19 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: COOL, it worked, thanks so much | 03:19 |
| byteme_ | Gnome has beat KDE I am afraid | 03:19 |
| Jcn | trying xfix again | 03:20 |
| RocketLauncher | byteme_ you be quiet now | 03:20 |
| sebsebseb | byteme_: not quite, give KDE 3 a try the older version :) | 03:20 |
| ctmjr | RocketLauncher: look in aticonfig it will show you the options run aticonfig | less to scroll through them | 03:20 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: an internets to you sir :D | 03:20 |
| sebsebseb | !kde3 | byteme_ | 03:20 |
| ubottu | byteme_: Kubuntu 8.04 ships with KDE3 and full support. Jaunty does not include KDE3 but a remix install CD can be obtained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty . This is not officially supported. Support, instructions and ways to contribute can be found on the wiki page | 03:20 |
| Jcn | ive never used linux before...this is tough... | 03:20 |
| SealV | adrian_2002ca, np the slightly harder way is to edit your gtkrc file in /home/user/.themes/<theme>/gtk 2.0/gtkrc | 03:20 |
| byteme_ | lol, the older version is all I will use | 03:20 |
| sebsebseb | byteme_: and you can add a repo into Ubuntu 9.04 | 03:20 |
| sebsebseb | byteme_: oh your already using KDE 3? | 03:20 |
| SealV | adrian_2002ca, that will work for all themes. the more you know right | 03:21 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: i thought i had to do that in the first place, so this is nice | 03:21 |
| RocketLauncher | ctmjr I did look and I tried doing something like this: sudo aticonfig –initial=dual-head –screen-layout=right (Not exactly this) and it still doesnt work | 03:21 |
| === edcrypt_ is now known as edcrypt | ||
| sebsebseb | byteme_: well a lot of the apps get better in KDE 4, but as a GUI, no thanks | 03:21 |
| RocketLauncher | ctmjr I did it before I restarted after installing fglrx, could that be why? | 03:21 |
| sebsebseb | byteme_: and those apps can be run in Gnome so :) | 03:21 |
| byteme_ | yeah, but also using 9.04 for the first time | 03:21 |
| crazylife | Does anyone know how to get a laptop to see the internal cdrom drive without adding acpi=off in the menu.lst? | 03:21 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: :D excellent, neon green here I come lol | 03:21 |
| Diablosblizz | Maderson: Are you still there? | 03:21 |
| Jcn | how do I uninstall fglrx | 03:21 |
| byteme_ | I ahve to admit man, I have been bashing gnome for a longgggg time | 03:21 |
| Jcn | or whatever it is that is making my screen black | 03:21 |
| SealV | adrian_2002ca, awesome. post a screenshot or two in the communtiy cafe thread | 03:22 |
| [R] | crazylife: if it requires acpi=off your laptop is seriously fscked up | 03:22 |
| RocketLauncher | sebsebseb How about twm (tabbed window manager)? Hueheuheuehahue | 03:22 |
| byteme_ | this new version is pure candy | 03:22 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: ill try lol | 03:22 |
| cdonke | hey... i'm trying to forward the external connections into the port 8900 (eth0) to an machine on my network (eth1) port 3389 (TS)... any hints?? | 03:22 |
| jdu | RocketLauncher, tom's window manager? | 03:22 |
| RocketLauncher | jdu No man no :| | 03:22 |
| fosa | how to force exit on a window that's not responding? | 03:22 |
| crazylife | R: no argument there. It is a Lenovo Y710. | 03:22 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: whats the channel? | 03:22 |
| sebsebseb | RocketLauncher: don't think I used that | 03:23 |
| ctmjr | RocketLauncher: try it again and see what output you get then restart X you might have to reboot not just restart X | 03:23 |
| bfecchio | heloo | 03:23 |
| jdu | haha | 03:23 |
| Jcn | gee...all this graphics card crap is making me wish I could just install os x on pc instead of ubuntu | 03:23 |
| RocketLauncher | ctmjr I did reboot, I don't even know how to restart X.. | 03:23 |
| Jcn | i'm so lost, how do I fix this | 03:23 |
| SealV | adrian_2002ca, oh no channel on the ubuntuforums>>community cafe>> stickied screenshot thread | 03:23 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: i tried #communitycafe but was empty | 03:23 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: aaaahhh lol | 03:23 |
| RocketLauncher | ctmjr: aticonfig: Writing to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' failed. Bad file descriptor. | 03:24 |
| SealV | adrian_2002ca, lol should have been clearer | 03:24 |
| jdu | fosa, multiple ways: killall appname or run xkill and click on window, wait for gnome to notice... | 03:24 |
| jrib | Jcn: os x only seems to work better with hardware exactly because it only works on a very restricted type of hardware :) | 03:24 |
| fosa | jdu thanks | 03:24 |
| RocketLauncher | ctmjr oh i didnt sudo | 03:24 |
| RocketLauncher | i'll reboot and see the outcome | 03:24 |
| byteme_ | I'm I out of order chatting about random topics? I wasnt sure if this was a dedicated tech support room. | 03:24 |
| byteme_ | dont want to get in the way | 03:25 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: how did you install the fglrx driver? | 03:25 |
| Patric3 | On my system, System->Administration->Hardware Drivers applet is missing. What package do I need ? | 03:25 |
| SealV | byteme_, best not mate, there is an offtopic channel | 03:25 |
| Jcn | through synaptic package monitor | 03:25 |
| SealV | Patric3, what version are you running? | 03:26 |
| Patric3 | I'm running 9.04 | 03:26 |
| byteme_ | cool, pardon me | 03:26 |
| musikgoat|main | !offtopic > byteme_ | 03:26 |
| TheNewGuy | does anyone know how to turn a nic card on and off via software? | 03:26 |
| byteme_ | thanks | 03:26 |
| Mene-Mene | ooh! | 03:26 |
| Patric3 | TheNewGuy: ifdown eth0 ? | 03:26 |
| Mene-Mene | found my problem! ia32-archive causes problems with my repositories! | 03:26 |
| TheNewGuy | What does that mean patric | 03:27 |
| Jcn | ctmjr: through synaptic package monitor | 03:27 |
| byteme_ | #offtopic | 03:27 |
| SealV | Patric3, jockey-glx is the package I think | 03:27 |
| jason__ | When I try to run "xinit /usr/bin/VBoxManage startvm "MyVM" -- :1", an X server seems to start, but nothing appears, and I get kicked back to :0 after a while. "xinit /usr/bin/glxgears -- :1" works fine. Can anyone suggest why? | 03:27 |
| Patric3 | TheNewGuy: eth0 is usually the first NIC on your system - ifdown will take the interface down | 03:27 |
| byteme_ | hmmm, trying to get there.. | 03:27 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: try this in a terminal sudo aticonf --initial and reboot | 03:27 |
| jason__ | 'VBoxManage startvm "MyVM"' works fine in :0 when I have a window manager running. | 03:28 |
| musikgoat|main | byteme_: /join #ubuntu-offtopic | 03:28 |
| Patric3 | Sealv: Thanks - I'll follow that up. The original install was minimal and I've been trying to get all of gnome installed (aptitude install gnome-session isn't enough :-/ | 03:28 |
| CNLiberal | i need help with my MDADM raid 5 array | 03:28 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: should be aticonfig sorry | 03:28 |
| byteme_ | thank you | 03:28 |
| CNLiberal | it won't mount...when i run a fsck_jfs /dev/md0 it says it can't continue because the superblocks are corrupt | 03:28 |
| SealV | Patric3, it might be saner to do ubuntu-desktop and then restrip system | 03:28 |
| Jcn | what will that do | 03:28 |
| d0wn3r | thanks jdu and sebsebseb .. i guess i am just an idiot. and the class is working fine now. | 03:29 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: it will load the fglrx driver in xorg.conf | 03:29 |
| Patric3 | Sealv: Yeah - dodgy DVD drive on this laptop - that was my original plan (i.e. ubuntu-desktop). Can I do a ubuntu-desktop install via apt ? | 03:29 |
| TheNewGuy | patric, I am having an issue with a dual boot system. according to the chat boards linux turns off the nic card when it shuts down. Microsoft assume the nic card is running therefore does not turn it on. so the only way to get my nic card to work with windows in my dual boot system | 03:29 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: what did you do? | 03:29 |
| ubottu | byteme_, please see my private message | 03:29 |
| Patric3 | TheNewGuy: Oh - so you have some WinTel only device ? | 03:30 |
| TheNewGuy | is to shut down with the reset button.. hard shut down. and then the nic card will stay on and will work with windows. | 03:30 |
| SealV | Patric3, yup apt-get ubuntu-desktop should get you the whole default. to go back to a pure De follow this link | 03:30 |
| Jcn | xorg.conf is ? | 03:30 |
| TheNewGuy | anyone here good with linux and nic cards? | 03:30 |
| Patric3 | SealV: Looks good - thanks | 03:30 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: Does your nic disappear? | 03:30 |
| TheNewGuy | nope, just says the cable is unplugged. | 03:31 |

| byteme_ | lol, oh | 03:31 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: Please begin your posts with my name so that I know who you're talking to (and it highlights for me). What are you doing to fix the problem? Hard reset? | 03:31 |
| RocketLauncher | ctmjr I tried using aticonfig -initial=dual-head --scren-layout =right ...... I restarted and both screens seemed to work, but all panels were gone and I couldn't do anything. I switched back to the backup xorg.conf. | 03:32 |
| byteme_ | ok, I will try again | 03:32 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV: posted :d | 03:32 |
| Jcn | ctmjr: no supported adapters detected | 03:32 |
| fosa | sebsebseb, thanks :) | 03:32 |

| sebsebseb | fosa: np, by the way which program you want fonts for? | 03:32 |
| musikgoat|main | byteme_: yw | 03:32 |
| TheNewGuy | edbain: yes hard reset was suggested and it works. | 03:32 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, i just ran ies4linux without the gui option | 03:32 |
| fosa | sebsebseb, gimp | 03:32 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, ./ies4linux --no-gui | 03:32 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: oh, I thought there was only gui for that | 03:32 |
| SealV | adrian_2002ca, looks great! especailly for a low spec system | 03:32 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: quite a while since I last tried it | 03:33 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: If you soft (normal) restart your machine does the nm-applet say "cable disconnected" ?? | 03:33 |
| sebsebseb | fosa: ah ok | 03:33 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, that error was very nondescript.. but makes sense..\ | 03:33 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: then your card is not supported by the driver do you have an option under administration / hardware drivers in the main menu? | 03:33 |
| adrian_2002ca | SealV:LOL, THANKS | 03:33 |
| Jcn | i cant see any of that | 03:33 |
| Jcn | I'm using console right now | 03:33 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, yeah, i really dont want to install ie on this..for some reason these people dont agree with firefox | 03:33 |
| TheNewGuy | yes, when I go to windows, it says that the cable is disconnected. | 03:33 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: remember to only browse with IE for the stupid stuff, and use Firefox or some such for everything else :) | 03:33 |
| TheNewGuy | this is a problem with several linux flavors. | 03:34 |
| Jcn | ctmjr: from console how do I go back to default drivers | 03:34 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: and with the correct useragent of course | 03:34 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: (please begin with my name. My clients highlight what you say for me if you do). I suggest finding out what module your nic uses and removing it via modprobe before you restart. I had a similar problem. | 03:34 |
| TheNewGuy | Edbian yes it says cable unplugged in windows. linux works fine. | 03:34 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: run this to get your gui back it should work sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 03:34 |
| Opti-Spaguetti | Hello, a simple question, what package contain h263 codec, (Unknown encoder 'h263') | 03:34 |
| musikgoat|main | Opti-Spaguetti: h264? | 03:35 |
| TheNewGuy | edbian how do you mean re-install the dirvers? | 03:35 |
| musikgoat|main | Opti-Spaguetti: try vlc | 03:35 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: then reboot | 03:35 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: Let me get this straight. If you soft shutdown from linux and then boot windows your network card doesn't work. Is this correct? If you hard reset and then boot windows (or linux) everything works fine. Is this correct? | 03:36 |
| Jcn | ok before i reboot it said warning overwriting possibly customised configuration file; | 03:36 |
| Jcn | ctmjr: ok before i reboot it said warning overwriting possibly customised configuration file; | 03:36 |
| RocketLauncher | How do I get dual screens working in fglrx? Doing the dual-head command didn't seem to work at all. I'm running Ubuntu 8.10. My card is an ATI HD4670. I don't want to be in here all night... | 03:36 |
| Patric3 | SealV: aptitude install ubuntu-desktop, needs to get 323 MB of archives (458 newly installed packages). No wonder I was having some issues! | 03:37 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: thats fine it is what it should say there is no need to back it up as it does not work | 03:37 |
| musikgoat|main | Opti-Spaguetti: ahh h.263... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1036180 | 03:37 |
| Jcn | ctmjr: ok rebooting now, what should happen now? | 03:38 |
| TheNewGuy | edbian I want to be clear, If i am in linux and shut down normaly, Soft, then linux will work fine when I reboot linux. But if i boot into windows, it will tell me the cable is unplugged. if I do the same with a hard reset, linux will work and windows will work. | 03:38 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: you should get your desktop back gnome or whatever you use | 03:38 |
| SealV | Patric3, :) | 03:38 |
| Opti-Spaguetti | musikgoat|main, cant find candidate version for sudo aptitude install libavcodec-unstripped-51 | 03:39 |
| SealV | brb | 03:39 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: What is the linux module for your nic card? | 03:39 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, i am only using ie for this course and uninstalling the goddamned thing | 03:39 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, i hate ie | 03:39 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: good :) | 03:39 |
| Jcn | ctmjr: nope still black screen with colored static lines across the top and red chinese looking symbols | 03:39 |
| TheNewGuy | edbian how do I find out and do you mean in linux or windows? | 03:39 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: and indeed worst browser of all | 03:39 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, ie doesnt support tabs in wine. | 03:39 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: yep since it's the older version of IE6 | 03:39 |
| musikgoat|main | Opti-Spaguetti: did you try -52? | 03:39 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: linux | 03:39 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, its enough to make me want to kill things with sticks | 03:40 |
| TheNewGuy | edbian how do I determin the module? | 03:40 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: uh | 03:40 |
| Kalmi_ | !tab | Opti-Spaguetti | 03:40 |
| ubottu | Opti-Spaguetti: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 03:40 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: well IE6 don't do tabs full stop, unless get some add on, IE7 had the tabs | 03:40 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: I am googling right now | 03:40 |
| uninverted | I'm having a few wireless problems; I've finally gotten it to detect wlan0, but the hardware LED says it's off, and I'm fairly it doesn't work. | 03:40 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, whatever, i dont care .. ie7 is horrible when i use it on my friends machine | 03:40 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: there wasn't even going to be an IE7 for XP, but then Firefox started gaining quite a lot of the market, as a result Mozilla have an internal joke "Internet Explorer 7 the best browser we ever made" | 03:40 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, then again.. i am completely against vista as well | 03:41 |
| sebsebseb | d0wn3r: IE7 horrible GUI, but slightly better standards support | 03:41 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: lspci -k | 03:41 |
| Jcn | ctmjr: is there any command I can use to make all the drivers go back to default? | 03:41 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, and you know what i hate about firefox | 03:41 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, their only standards support so far is the IEtab plugin | 03:42 |
| musikgoat|main | d0wn3r: the memory consumption? | 03:42 |
| d0wn3r | sebsebseb, which is just dirty. | 03:42 |
| RocketLauncher | Sorry for the repeat. After ten minutes, it probably scrolled out of view already: How do I get dual screens working in fglrx? Doing the dual-head command didn't seem to work at all. I'm running Ubuntu 8.10. My card is an ATI HD4670. I don't want to be in here all night... | 03:42 |

| d0wn3r | musikgoat|main, i can handle memory consumption. | 03:42 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: try this first that last command should have worked but the fglrx driver is in the way sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx | 03:42 |

| edbian | Diablosblizz: PM me and explain in detail what the system is like now and what you want it to be when we're done | 03:46 |
| Jcn | ctmjr: i did the purge command, should I also do the dpkg command before rebooting, or just reboot | 03:46 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: It "removes" the module from the kernel. Like uninstall the driver in windows speak. When you reboot (into linux) it will be like it never happened because linux will re-probe your hardware and re-insert the module. | 03:46 |
| ctmjr | Jcn: you should be able to reboot but run it just to make sure then reboot if it does not work there is a couple other things to try | 03:47 |
| TheNewGuy | edbian, are you sure it will reload the module? if there is anychance that the system will assume I don't want it loaded.... I will be stuck with windows. | 03:48 |
| simple_ | j #startups | 03:48 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: The command to load the module manually is: "sudo modprobe <modulename>" (It's the same but missing the -r) | 03:48 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: You can remove it and then insert it right now without restarting just to watch it appear and disappear in the nm-applet. | 03:49 |

| edbian | TheNewGuy: Not quite | 03:52 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: "sudo modprobe atl2" no space, no capitals. I'm assuming BTW that's it's an L and not a 1 | 03:52 |
| Pici | systest: not off hand, but take a look at the manpage for motd.tail , I believe it describes what scripts control the creation of the motd. | 03:53 |

| Zxcvb | the only way I managed to get it to work was with the included xorg.conf file, but using xorg.conf is bad so how do you do it the proper way? | 03:57 |
| RocketLauncher | legend2440 I did check out that site but dual-head seemed to completely screw me up. I didn't have any panels but both screens were working. I couldn't do anything. I'm thinking it was a resolution problem but I don't know what happened | 03:57 |
| ctmjr | Zxcvb: you installed it from the nvidia site? | 03:57 |
| whileimhere | Hi I was wondering if anyone knew the name of the server that allows you to manage newsletter subscriptions and the like? I think it was fire something. | 03:58 |
| alex___ | Does anyone know... I have an install of Jaunty on a usb stick... Anyone know where like the home folder is if I want to access it just from my comp without rebooting into it? | 03:58 |
| Zxcvb | ctmrj: yes, the version installed using apt-get doesn't support newer kernels (with make kpkg) | 03:58 |
| TheNewGuy | What is the notification area, I looked, could not find | 03:58 |
| TheNewGuy | edbian what is the notification area, I looked for it but cant find it. | 03:58 |
| lascar | :-D | 03:58 |
| legend2440 | RocketLauncher: yes i remember ati dual monitor being tricky to get right. i now have nvidia so its been a while since i had dual monitors with ati | 03:59 |
| SealV | TheNewGuy,: its the area on your panel where pidgin or volume icon shows up | 03:59 |
| systest | Pici: FWIW /etc/cron.d/update-motd thanks again | 03:59 |
| whileimhere | feedburner! | 03:59 |
| Zxcvb | ctmjr: I assume that using xorg.conf is bad now | 03:59 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: Are you on gnome? | 03:59 |
| alex___ | legend2440: With the newest ATI Drivers (9.6) dual monitors aren't too bad to set up... but the Xinerama doesn't work right. | 03:59 |
| RocketLauncher | legend2440 Damn so you dont really remember what to do? :( | 04:00 |
| Zxcvb | ctmjr: so I guess I need to find the right hal fdi command | 04:00 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: Top right corner. Two computers... | 04:00 |
| TheNewGuy | edbian, yes, ubuntu 9.04 a standard install. | 04:00 |
| alex___ | RocketLauncher: Have you gotten the lastest drivers + CCC off ATI's site? | 04:00 |
| ctmjr | Zxcvb: no it still works you almost have to get the driver set up right | 04:00 |
| TheNewGuy | edbian, do I need to run nm_applet? | 04:00 |
| Zxcvb | ctmjr: it is set up, the problem is telling xorg to use it | 04:00 |
| RocketLauncher | alex___ I got fglrx from restricted drivers. Should I get the drivers off ati.com ? | 04:01 |
| Zxcvb | ctmjr: normally you would make or edit an appropriate xorg.conf, but xorg.conf is bad | 04:01 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: It should be already running. Can you send me a screen shot? | 04:01 |
| alex___ | RocketLauncher: Yeah, the one you got still gives you 9.4 which is impossible to set up dual monitors on. lol | 04:01 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: List the icons on your top panel starting from the right | 04:01 |
| Zxcvb | ctmjr: so what needs to be modified in /etc/hal/policy to make it work | 04:01 |

| alex___ | RocketLauncher: Just pick if you have 32 bit or 64 bit then your model. | 04:02 |
| TheNewGuy | edbian far right... sound, power, configure dislplay setting, internet , clock with date | 04:02 |

| edbian | TheNewGuy:Ok I'm sure this is the nm-applet now. If you click "about" you'll see that too. | 04:06 |
| RocketLauncher | alex___ when I try to run ati-driver-installer-9-6-x86.x86_64.run it says "Permission denied" | 04:06 |

| civixier | pici> haha, simple enough. thank you :D | 04:06 |

| ctmjr | _Space_Case_: you need to find this file and install it it is firmware for your card dvb-fe-xc5000-1.1.fw | 04:07 |
| alex___ | RocketLauncher: 1. Did you make it executable? 2. You have to run it through terminal with sudo. | 04:07 |
| giiker | any utility to find repeated lines inside one file!? | 04:08 |
| RocketLauncher | alex___ I did it wrong. I'm installing now | 04:08 |
| _Space_Case_ | where do i find the file at? | 04:08 |
| edbian | TheNewGuy: Now if you run "sudo modprobe -r atl2" and look at your nm-applet you'll see the wired connection will no longer be listed. If you then run "sudo modprobe atl2" it will show up again. It might take a few seconds to change BTW. | 04:08 |

| dotblank | d1gital: is the pcm volume all the way up? | 04:32 |

| BellinXFelon | i keep gettin a message saying "could not grab your mouse, a malicious program may ...." | 04:32 |
| twig11 | From the Desktop CD installer for Jaunty, what do I need to do to reinstall the operating system without affecting /dev/sda6 where I have my home folder? | 04:33 |
| mechtech | syntax: windows is very janky software indeed | 04:33 |
| Dr_willis | chris-dowle: you could see if you can login to the console/recovery/rescue mode.. and see if they work in the console.. if they work there.. well you may be able to some how fix the X issue. | 04:33 |
| syntax | oh ok mec | 04:33 |
| TheNewGuy_ | ok, when I run linux and do a normal shutdown and boot into windows, my nic card will not respond. I get the error, cable unplugged. when I am in linux and do a hard shutdown, I can boot to windows and my nic card works. any idea. | 04:33 |

| mechtech | !ask | 04:37 |
| TheNewGuy_ | martyr2k6, just post your problem... | 04:37 |
| 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 | 04:37 |
| ubottu | 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. :-) | 04:37 |

| edbian | TheNewGuy_: The ubuntu forums | 04:38 |

| jason__ | Daps, privoxy could conceivably improve your privacy while running on the same machine you're browsing on, but I can't think of many other scenarios where running a local proxy would be helpful | 04:38 |
| Dr_willis | Daps: if you are behind a router. then most ports will be blocked anyway | 04:39 |
| mechtech | gurugeek: rebuild tcp/ip stack | 04:39 |

| chris-dowle | m0r0n: havnt used it in years | 04:42 |

| Daps | Dr_willis: ok thanks | 04:43 |
| Dr_willis | Daps: so do what you want.. i would just not use that forum any more if you consider it a security risk. or use that 'onion router' project for paranoid-level-security to hide your ip | 04:43 |

| martyr2k6 | because I am wanting to remove anything linux from this pc from the livecd | 04:52 |
| Dr_willis | Daps: some times it returns your actual ip. some times ya gotta do a little more work to get the ip. | 04:52 |
| martyr2k6 | so I can just go back to my windows on it, I have linux on my desktop and its perfectly fine there | 04:52 |
| mechtech | mertyr2k6: during the install it should ask you where you want to install grub | 04:52 |

| illumin8 | rhl6856, oh so each application uses individual ports? | 05:08 |
| rhl6856 | illumin8 not necessarily, | 05:08 |

| rhl6856 | webstuff is generally on 80 | 05:08 |

| rhl6856 | not sure on the others | 05:09 |
| illumin8 | ok i have that forwarded on my router but it seems unable to connect? | 05:09 |

| illumin8 | if i remember correclty under system>hardware. it should list available video drivers | 05:12 |
| rhl6856 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/224077/ | 05:12 |
| rhl6856 | i want this right: xserver-xorg-video-ati - X.Org X server -- ATI display driver wrapper ? | 05:13 |
| gnr | anybody with openvpn and pkcs11 experiences here? | 05:13 |
| Dreki | is there a limit to the number of file handles for concurrently open files for jaunty, if so what is the limit? | 05:13 |
| rhl6856 | or is it the radeon one | 05:13 |
| rhl6856 | xserver-xorg-video-radeon - X.Org X server -- ATI Radeon display driver | 05:13 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: okay, now notice how the packagename is in front of the description - now if you do this: apt-cache show xserver-xorg-video-radeon it should give you some more info | 05:13 |
| rhl6856 | ok | 05:14 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, i think im going to install that one | 05:14 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: go for it | 05:14 |
| rhl6856 | except | 05:14 |
| rhl6856 | i already have it | 05:14 |
| kyppcgeek | looking for work sucks | 05:15 |
| rhl6856 | so should i just change xorg.conf to radeon ? | 05:15 |
| rhl6856 | err | 05:15 |
| rhl6856 | lol | 05:15 |
| rhl6856 | the ati to radeon | 05:15 |
| Gnea | yeah | 05:15 |
| ctmjr | rhl6856: here you read this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver | 05:15 |
| rhl6856 | and restart the gdm daemon? | 05:15 |
| Gnea | yup | 05:15 |
| kyppcgeek | gdm... rofl | 05:16 |
| gnr | Dreki:cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max | 05:16 |
| rhl6856 | why rofl? | 05:16 |
| rhl6856 | i did the gdm restart, and its hanging | 05:17 |
| Gnea | wouldn't worry about it | 05:17 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 05:17 |
| rhl6856 | lol | 05:17 |
| Gnea | ? | 05:18 |
| rhl6856 | how? its hanging and apparently ssh daemon is dead | 05:18 |
| Gnea | ctrl-alt-f1 | 05:18 |
| rhl6856 | last few lines are restore tv stuff | 05:19 |
| rhl6856 | and then Leaving Restore TV | 05:19 |
| Gnea | ?! | 05:19 |
| rhl6856 | and then RADEON(0)... stuff three lines | 05:19 |
| rhl6856 | and the last one is ddxSigGiveUp: closing log | 05:19 |
| Gnea | there's an application that you can install called pastebinit, you can use that to pastebin the logfile from the commandline | 05:19 |
| Dreki | gnr: thanks | 05:19 |
| rods | Howdy! Anyone had choppy issues with flash in ubuntu netbook remix? Seems that one fix is adding to mms.cfg, but I cannot find /etc/adobe | 05:20 |
| illumin_8 | hmm to check open ports i could ' netstat -an | grep "LISTEN" ' but that only sees for the machine correct? | 05:21 |
| gnr | Dreki:use sysctl if you need to change em' for good | 05:21 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, wireless needs to connect... | 05:21 |
| Gnea | illumin_8: right | 05:21 |
| illumin_8 | It wont tell me if its accessable outside the network? | 05:21 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: don't see how that's an issue, unless you've got it set to the default setting where it only connects to the network once you've logged in | 05:21 |
| Gnea | illumin_8: nmap is very good at doing that | 05:22 |
| rhl6856 | yes | 05:22 |
| illumin_8 | Gnea, thank you ill research that now :) | 05:22 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: hrm... i'd switch it back to ati, deal with the lameness until you can get the networkmanager to connect all the time, then try again | 05:22 |
| rhl6856 | lol | 05:23 |
| rhl6856 | i can fix this by just connecting | 05:23 |
| Gnea | oh ok | 05:23 |
| rods | anyone have experience with ubuntu netbook remix? | 05:23 |
| Gnea | rods: not yet, but hang out and ask in another 10 minutes or so, someone else might be | 05:23 |
| Dr_willis | rods: ive used it.. and theres a lot of forums on it and specific netbooks. | 05:24 |
| Gnea | s/be/know/g | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | rods: ive had no flash issues.. that i recall. | 05:24 |
| rods | I've found a fix for my issue that I want to implement. But I cannot find where flash is installed, even with locate | 05:24 |
| rods | I believe in previous versions it was located at /etc/.adobe | 05:25 |
| rods | but this file does not exist | 05:25 |
| Dr_willis | rods: update the locate database with 'sudo updatedb' then try the locate commands again | 05:25 |
| rods | I updated it recently, but was unable to find it. Does it install to some arbitraty folder? | 05:26 |
| ceal | i'm searching for a webcam software; which would be the recommended one? | 05:27 |
| [texas] | how do i change the transparent selection color thing | 05:27 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, gave up, rebooting with ati lol.. | 05:28 |
| Dr_willis | rods: no idea. ive never had to alter the flash files.. you could fire up the package manager and examine the details for the flash package to see wht it installs.. BUT i think it just some how downloads/runs the adobe installer... | 05:28 |
| Dr_willis | rods: so what file are you looking for? it could be you need to make it. | 05:29 |
| illumin_8 | ceal, this page has quite a bit of info reguarding the webcam software available https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam | 05:29 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: heh k | 05:29 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, the problem is for some reason the 'networkmanager' is locked | 05:29 |
| rhl6856 | i have to use a keyring password to use it | 05:29 |
| illumin_8 | personally i liked cheese but it doesnt work with all cams. | 05:29 |
| rhl6856 | i think i messed something up today that causes that | 05:29 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: i gave up on networkmanager and installed wicd | 05:29 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, is that better? what are the advantages? | 05:30 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: it's way better | 05:30 |
| ceal | thanks illumin_8 | 05:30 |
| gnr | anybody with openvpn and pkcs11 experiences here? | 05:31 |
| rhl6856 | will i get better wireless performance? | 05:32 |
| hocuspocus | can anyone tell me why I cant use my printer on ubuntu hardy 8.04 lts version? | 05:32 |
| rhl6856 | my wireless card is barely supported. DWA-552 | 05:32 |
| rhl6856 | its currently getting 40% when a machine nearby can get 100% | 05:32 |
| rods | why would updatedb give permission denied to "/home/user/.gvfs | 05:33 |
| Dr_willis | rods: its a special type of directory. its like dynamically created. | 05:33 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: it's just another interface to get wired/wireless to work, it doesn't always do anything different, although a few minor things seem to work better | 05:34 |
| gnr | rods:Gnome virtual file system is a protected file even to root | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | rods: i wonder why locate isent told to ignore it.. | 05:34 |
| rhl6856 | (getting it now) | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | rods: ive never had locate try to mess with it befor. | 05:34 |
| rods | Dr_willis agreed | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | rods: locate also ignores stuff in /media/ i recall.. which can be good or bad... | 05:34 |
| gnr | the config is in /etc/updatedb.conf | 05:35 |
| disconect | why does the website have Hardy and Jaunty for download but not Intrepid? | 05:36 |
| disconect | I don't understand ubuntu's version numbers & names at all! | 05:36 |
| rods | Dr_willis so the fix for choppy flash player I'm trying is one adobe put in their blog awhile back, http://www.tuxradar.com/content/ubuntu-netbook-remix-904-hands search for mms.cfg | 05:36 |
| gnr | rods:maybe your PRUNEFS is missing | 05:36 |
| Dr_willis | disconect: its not a version # really.. its the date it was released. | 05:36 |
| disconect | they have 8.04 and 9.04 but not 8.10 - same with kubuntu | 05:36 |
| Gnea | disconect: it's pretty simple, actually: the version numbers refer to the month and year | 05:36 |
| rods | gnr what is prunefs | 05:36 |
| disconect | oh wow, thats cool! | 05:36 |
| alex___ | disconect: 8.10 wasn't a long term support... | 05:37 |
| Gnea | disconect: so 8.04 was released in April of 2008, 8.10 in October of 2008 | 05:37 |
| gnr | rod:/etc/updatedb.conf | 05:37 |
| [texas] | how do i change the selection square thing's color | 05:37 |
| alex___ | disconect: Therefore it was only available for 6 months. | 05:37 |
| firevai | isnt grub.conf located in /boot/grub? | 05:37 |
| disconect | hmmm...why are some versions not long-term | 05:37 |
| Dr_willis | http://releases.ubuntu.com/ | 05:37 |
| firevai | trying to help my buddy edit it and take out old unused entries | 05:37 |
| Dr_willis | LTS is sort of a 'business' thang :) if you are running a server for work.. you wan tit to be supported as long as it can be. | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | for your average home user.. its not that big a deal | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | disconect: that url i posted has 8.10 | 05:38 |
| disconect | I see.....do they still release patches and stuff for the non-LTS? | 05:39 |
| firevai | ok so am i correct here.. grub.conf is in /boot/grub? | 05:39 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, what log did you want me to pastebin ? | 05:39 |
| firevai | tried gedit and nano.. and for some reason its not showing | 05:39 |
| Dr_willis | !lts | disconect | 05:39 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 05:39 |
| alazyworkaholic | quick question: Can I install Ubuntu && another linux OS separately & have both access the same /home/user area if /home is its own partition? | 05:40 |
| disconect | I'm actually interested in kubuntu, and want 8.x cuz I"m not ready for KDE4 - already downloaded 8.04 from the website, would I be better getting 8.10? | 05:40 |
| rhl6856 | pastebin.com/f44ae180f | 05:40 |
| Gnea | alazyworkaholic: you can, but it's not recommended, since each distro has its own little quirks as to what files go on the desktop | 05:40 |
| fosa | @find drupal | 05:40 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, www.pastebin.com/f44ae180f | 05:41 |
| Dr_willis | alazyworkaholic: dont share /home/ amoung different disrtos.. it can cause issues with file ownership. now 2 ubuntu variants can get by with it If you add the users in the same order. | 05:41 |
| Dr_willis | alazyworkaholic: but it can still cause issues if you are not carefull | 05:41 |
| rhl6856 | urg | 05:41 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, kill the www. | 05:41 |
| rhl6856 | http://pastebin.com/f44ae180f | 05:41 |
| firevai | Dr_willis: ... i need your help when your done please | 05:41 |
| light50 | hi can anyone suggest a good gui based rss reader please | 05:42 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, also, let me do that again, now that log has more junk | 05:42 |
| Dr_willis | firevai: post the natuer of the linux emergancy to the channel.. :) its 1 AM here.. and im about to go off duty. :P | 05:42 |
| firevai | oh ok Dr_willis | 05:42 |
| alazyworkaholic | Dr_willis: ok. thanks. I imagine that has something to do with user id #'s or something like that. It would be Ubuntu & Gentoo. | 05:42 |
| firevai | all i am wondering is why my buddy cant edit grub.conf | 05:42 |
| firevai | it should be in /boot/grub | 05:43 |
| firevai | so we are using nano -w /boot/grub/grub.conf | 05:43 |
| Gnea | firevai: because it's called menu.lst, not grub.conf | 05:43 |
| alazyworkaholic | So long as I have access somehow, I guess that'll do. Thanks | 05:43 |
| firevai | and its displaying a blank window | 05:43 |
| firevai | wierd... ok | 05:43 |
| Dr_willis | alazyworkaholic: users in Ubuntu start at uid 1000, some disrtos start at 500. so it can cause issues.. :) | 05:44 |
| firevai | so there is no grub.conf in ubuntu at all... | 05:44 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, http://pastebin.com/f2c774510 | 05:44 |
| firevai | i just had it installed the other day myself, and swore i thought i saw it | 05:44 |
| Egros | can someone help me to find a kicker floppy/floppy kicker | 05:44 |
| JoshuWAA | Hey can someone help me setting up my wireless internet in ubuntu 8.04? | 05:44 |
| alazyworkaholic | Dr_willis: ok, understood. Do you think I'll have problems if I manually set them equal? (Assuming I can do that?) | 05:44 |
| bucky | firevai: you mean /boot/grub/menu.lst | 05:45 |
| ubottu | disconect: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be 10.04 | 05:45 |
| prince_jammys | alazyworkaholic: if that's the issue, change your Gentoo users UIDs to the same as Ubuntu's. | 05:45 |
| light50 | hi JoshuWAA not sure if i can help but what is the issue? | 05:45 |
| disconect | cool - I think I get it now, thanks! | 05:45 |
| JoshuWAA | I don't know how to connect to my wireless router at all in 8.04 | 05:45 |
| light50 | ah. is network manager running | 05:46 |
| alazyworkaholic | prince_jammys: thanks, I'll work on that. | 05:46 |
| JoshuWAA | I believe so. | 05:46 |
| === food is now known as Guest42024 | ||
| JoshuWAA | I just can't find any wireless networks at all. | 05:47 |
| prince_jammys | alazyworkaholic: in ubuntu, this would be done with 'usermod'. See if that's installed in Gentoo. | 05:47 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, are you still there? | 05:47 |
| light50 | JoshuWAA: ok if the nw manager is running you should see it in your system tray | 05:48 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: yeah | 05:48 |
| alazyworkaholic | I have a 500 GB HDD. Is / = 50 GB, /home + swap = the rest likely good? | 05:48 |
| rhl6856 | (just checking if you saw my earlier pastebin?) | 05:48 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: saw it.. never seen this before heh | 05:48 |
| JoshuWAA | yeah, it's there but the problem is, i don't know how to connect to my wireless router, there are on wireless networks being idntified | 05:48 |
| prince_jammys | alazyworkaholic: 50 gigs seems pretty big. | 05:49 |
| light50 | JoshuWAA: ok and i take it your network isn't one of the ones identified? | 05:49 |
| dotblank | Hello buntu users.. im looking for a cross platform webcam client besides ekiga and skype that can be used as an alt to aim and has good NAT traversal or a centralized server. I heard of a program called epiphany but I dont think I got the name/spelling right | 05:49 |
| [R] | dotblank: epiphany is a web browser | 05:50 |
| dotblank | I heard there is a new pidgin replacement in karmic? | 05:50 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, not sure if this helps: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/xfree-prob-radeon.o-kernel-module-version-is-1.1.1-but-version-1.5.0-or-newer-needed.-99176/ | 05:50 |
| alazyworkaholic | Can someone comment on the differences between choosing a Primary vs Logical partition type during install? | 05:51 |
| [R] | dotblank: empathy | 05:51 |
| Netizen1993 | hi all.. I have a small problem, I need to know how to find out what driver Ubuntu is using to control my sata drives? so I can find a driver for windows? for the same computer.. since this only came with Vista.. and I'd like to put XP on it.. along with Ubuntu... Win for Gaming of course :) LOL | 05:51 |
| dotblank | [R]: Thx | 05:51 |
| [R] | alazyworkaholic: there is none | 05:51 |
| [R] | Netizen1993: stuff linux uses has nothign to do with windows | 05:51 |
| Netizen1993 | it only came with Vista.. so there's no XP drivers in existence.. | 05:51 |
| [R] | Netizen1993: ok and this has to do with linux because... | 05:52 |
| Netizen1993 | [R], I realize that.. but it can help me to find a driver to use.. if I can figure out what it's currently using. | 05:52 |
| dotblank | [R]: I guess he wants to know what hardware / chipset hes using... a simple hardware information program should get that | 05:52 |
| === food is now known as Guest983 | ||
| [R] | Netizen1993: you're using a driver in the linux kernel... not gonna help you at all with windows | 05:52 |
| Netizen1993 | so I can slipstream a windows install cd | 05:52 |
| [R] | you can't put linux drivers on a windows cd... | 05:52 |
| Netizen1993 | [R]. I understand that.. | 05:53 |
| dotblank | [R]: hes using linux to determine and identify his hardware and then with that knowledge locate the windows driver himself | 05:53 |
| Netizen1993 | but if I can find out what the maker of the controller is I can get a driver for windows. | 05:53 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: okay, did you actually replace "ati" with "radeon" or did you add it on another line? | 05:53 |
| rhl6856 | i replaced it | 05:53 |
| [R] | Netizen1993: lspci | 05:53 |
| rhl6856 | Driver "radeon" | 05:54 |
| hocuspocus | is anyone here familiar with security issues? | 05:54 |
| Netizen1993 | [R] thanks for the tip :) | 05:54 |
| Netizen1993 | Kudos.. :) | 05:54 |
| Netizen1993 | I now know what I need :) | 05:54 |
| pcbuilder97 | i need help with an acpi issue. can anybody help me?? | 05:54 |
| light50 | hi can anyone suggest a good gui based rss reader please | 05:55 |
| [R] | pcbuilder97: you have to tell us what your problem is before we can know if we can help you | 05:55 |
| [R] | light50: i use thunderbird | 05:55 |
| light50 | thanks [R], do you use tb for mail and calendar as well? | 05:55 |
| Egros | could i put a boot manager on a floppy and us it to boot from a USB, and would the USB have to be bootable or just copy the iso to it? | 05:55 |
| [R] | light50: not calednar | 05:56 |
| pcbuilder97 | well i was installing the devices for my webcam and enterd the dmesg command and i got about 80 lines that state acpi unable to turn on cooling device | 05:56 |
| [R] | light50: my head is my calednar | 05:56 |
| [R] | pcbuilder97: and what did google say about those messages? | 05:56 |
| dotblank | Egros: I could see putting the kernel on the floppy | 05:56 |
| light50 | k, lol, my mail usage is moderate to light but my rss is heavy so im after a single task solution | 05:56 |
| alazyworkaholic | When choosing the location for the new partition, does beginning mean from outside of disk inwards, or from inside outwards? | 05:57 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: give fglrx a shot? | 05:57 |
| pcbuilder97 | couldnt relly fing anything helpful directly related to the cooling device message only acpi detection articles | 05:57 |
| xeon_ | Есть тут люди русско говорящие??? | 05:57 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, ok. | 05:57 |
| Egros | Heres my sit, i have an older computer that cant boot from USB via the bios, so i can just put the kernal on the flopy and it will no to look in the USB for the rest? | 05:58 |
| rhl6856 | do I have to remove radeon first? | 05:58 |
| Dr_willis | alazyworkaholic: i always use primary partitions (you can have 4 max) when possible. | 05:58 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, remove radeon first? | 05:58 |
| pcbuilder97 | the prossescor seems to be working a bit much too | 05:58 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: the package? no, they can co-exist - you're only using one at a time | 05:58 |
| rhl6856 | ok | 05:58 |
| Dr_willis | alazyworkaholic: not sure if they go from the inside out or outside in.. not sure it really matters much these days for speed. | 05:58 |
| alazyworkaholic | Dr_willis: will do, but why? | 05:59 |
| dotblank | Egros: depends on the distro... you might be better off doing a netboot or burning a cd with the kernel and the initrd and using the flash drive for the squashfs root | 05:59 |
| Dr_willis | alazyworkaholic: its easier to work with primaries if you ever need to resize them. | 05:59 |
| dotblank | Egros: does it not have a cd drive | 05:59 |
| rhl6856 | wow | 05:59 |
| Dr_willis | alazyworkaholic: windows is the os with the issues with lots of primaries. :) linux dosent care. | 05:59 |
| rhl6856 | this might work | 05:59 |
| alazyworkaholic | Thanks, good to know | 05:59 |
| xeon_ | бляяяяяя( туту русские есть а??? | 05:59 |
| Egros | i dont have any cds | 05:59 |

| racecar56 | how do i install the nvidia driver with the command line | 06:00 |
| rhl6856 | somethings wrong | 06:00 |
| rhl6856 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI | 06:00 |
| dotblank | Egros: well if you are really really adventurous you could do a netboot. | 06:00 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: you're on 9.04? | 06:00 |
| rhl6856 | yeah | 06:00 |
| Dr_willis | alazyworkaholic: with more then 1.. it had in the past .... windows has (had?) to instll to a primary partition i recall.. linux dosent care | 06:00 |
| racecar56 | my xorg is acting stupid and i have to get the nvidia driver to make it work | 06:00 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, why? | 06:00 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: let's try something else.... | 06:01 |
| rhl6856 | yay | 06:01 |
| rhl6856 | ok | 06:01 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 06:01 |
| Dr_willis | or sudo service gdm stop :) | 06:01 |
| rhl6856 | k\ | 06:01 |
| rhl6856 | done | 06:01 |
| rhl6856 | lol | 06:01 |
| Egros | i dont think it can support that, anywaz it onlly has dial-up, so it would be VERY slow | 06:01 |
| rhl6856 | what now | 06:01 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 06:01 |
| Dr_willis | well good night all..... | 06:01 |
| rhl6856 | done | 06:01 |

| === a1g_ is now known as a1g | ||

| McPeter | :) | 06:07 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, like the boring photo? | 06:07 |

| illumin8_ | alright i think i have isolated my ubuntu server problem but im unsure how to fix it. Apparently various applications are listening on ip 0.0.0.0 instead of the internal address of 192.168.1.102. Anyone have a suggestion? | 06:08 |
| rhl6856 | its that unsexy | 06:08 |
| Gnea | should be working just fine then :) | 06:08 |
| rhl6856 | well, tv still isn't being detected | 06:09 |
| Jasper_ | thanks yall | 06:09 |
| [R] | illumin8: 0.0.0.0 means all addresses | 06:09 |
| rhl6856 | which is the original problem | 06:09 |
| Gnea | hrm | 06:09 |
| rhl6856 | :P | 06:09 |
| Jasper_ | it worked | 06:09 |
| rhl6856 | but , hey, lets call it a feature ya? | 06:09 |
| Gnea | i think aticonfig can handle that | 06:09 |
| illumin8_ | [R], Ahh thank you very much, so in theory the server is listening for requests from the router? | 06:09 |
| rhl6856 | installing fglrx | 06:10 |
| [R] | illumin8_: huh? | 06:10 |
| developer | hi | 06:10 |
| rhl6856 | omfg wireless G is SO slow. | 06:10 |

| rhl6856 | (lame) | 06:11 |
| Helliana | can someone please help me figure out why i don't have sound in flash videos while using Firefox? | 06:11 |
| illumin8_ | [R], yea im at that same stage. Ill try to explain. Brand new to server operations and apparently though its setup and I can see my website hosted on the server locally and within the network, i cant seem to access it outside the network via online website testers | 06:11 |
| Gnea | Helliana: using pulseaudio? | 06:11 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, aticonfig: No supported adapters detected | 06:12 |
| Helliana | Gnea: i guess. | 06:12 |
| Helliana | i just installed it ealier today | 06:12 |
| Helliana | (it as in kubuntu) | 06:12 |
| illumin8_ | [R], port 80 is forwarded in the router im using, along with others the server has 53, 22 etc...but the server itself is bare as far as the outside world is concerned. | 06:12 |
| Gnea | !pulseaudio | Helliana (check this site out, it can help you become more familiar with the audio subsystem in Ubuntu) | 06:12 |
| ubottu | Helliana (check this site out, it can help you become more familiar with the audio subsystem in Ubuntu): PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 06:12 |
| [R] | illumin8_: bare? | 06:13 |
| illumin8_ | [R], yep the online testers get "failure to connect to server" | 06:13 |
| j03lar50n | I have attempted to make an image of my install with remastersys but gave the wrong destination path for the .iso. can i still salvage an iso w/out waiting anther hour? | 06:13 |
| [R] | illumin8_: sounds like your not forwarding the port and/or its being blocked by the isp | 06:13 |
| Helliana | Gnea: what i don't understand is i did nothing different on my desktop than i did on my laptop | 06:13 |
| Helliana | sound on my laptop works, on my desktop it doesn't | 06:13 |
| === happyaron_ is now known as happyaron | ||
| j03lar50n | ...w/ what's left in /home/remastersys/remastersys ? | 06:14 |
| illumin8_ | [R], I contacted my isp and they said they block no ports, and that asside from nameserver issues i shouldnt have any issues. | 06:14 |
| rhl6856 | gnea, omg, fglrx made my desktop all splode | 06:14 |
| Gnea | Helliana: could be a hardware difference | 06:14 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: what? | 06:14 |
| Helliana | Gnea: sound works everywhere else, just not in flash. | 06:14 |
| [R] | illumin8_: well if it works on your lan and not from outside... its not a linux problem | 06:14 |
| rhl6856 | i wish i could take a picture | 06:14 |
| illumin8_ | [R], as far as port forwarding i followed the guide on portforward.com for my router. | 06:14 |
| rhl6856 | but i cant | 06:14 |
| rhl6856 | its 3/4 black | 06:15 |
| Gnea | rhl6856: what did you do? | 06:15 |
| rhl6856 | 1/4 ubuntu | 06:15 |
| rhl6856 | i install fglrx and restarted... | 06:15 |
| rhl6856 | lol | 06:15 |
| illumin8_ | [R], yes I agree, its functional but not accessable. I was wondering how to get to the later :) | 06:15 |
| illumin8_ | rhl6856, does your monitor have an autocenter feature? | 06:16 |
| rhl6856 | no clie | 06:16 |
| rhl6856 | clue* | 06:16 |
| rhl6856 | restarting gdm | 06:16 |
| rhl6856 | (most likely the moniter is not the problem) | 06:16 |
| illumin8_ | (not really a problem just something i had experienced before where the screen alignment "shifted" after installing the desktop) | 06:17 |

| legend2440 | dam0: devede | 06:23 |
| sebsebseb | !debian | tuxwulf | 06:23 |
| ubottu | tuxwulf: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 06:23 |

| schnoodles | what is the best way to install a LAMP setup on Jaunty ? | 06:26 |
| Gnea | !lamp | schnoodles | 06:26 |
| ubottu | schnoodles: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 06:26 |

| Gnea | Helliana: waitasec... did you say Kubuntu or Ubuntu? | 06:29 |
| pianistbaby | it says "Could not open location; you might not have permission to open the file." | 06:30 |
| Helliana | Gnea: Kubuntu | 06:30 |
| Helliana | kde4 | 06:30 |
| Gnea | oh | 06:30 |
| sebsebseb | kde3 big :) kde4 hmm | 06:30 |
| tuxwulf | sebsebseb > yepyepyep | 06:30 |
| Gnea | Helliana: big difference there :) sorry about that, you should check out #kubuntu, unless someone else here is familiar with the kde gui | 06:31 |
| sebsebseb | tuxwulf: ok when 9.10 comes out at the end of October, a lot of current Ubuntu users should be clean installing, becasue of the default Ext4 support :) | 06:31 |
| sebsebseb | tuxwulf: and that's the only way to get the proper thing, because the conversion won't be good enough | 06:31 |
| ikonia | sebsebseb: nonsense there is nothing wrong witj ext3 | 06:31 |
| Gnea | ikonia: I think he's referring to those users who will actually upgrade | 06:32 |
| tuxwulf | sebsebseb > Owkay, but that don't help me out right now.... | 06:32 |
| Helliana | uggg this is really bothering me..... | 06:32 |
| tuxwulf | Anyway: to the sources! | 06:32 |
| sebsebseb | ikonia: Ext4 may be faster and such, but Ext3 is good as well | 06:32 |
| pcbuilder97 | i tried the alph2 of 9.10 but the flappy drive wouldnt ever stop running | 06:33 |
| Gnea | tuxwulf: so what version are you on now? | 06:33 |
| legend2440 | i use partimage which does not support ext4. i will still be able to choose ext3 with Karmic? | 06:33 |
| tuxwulf | Gnea > 9.04 | 06:33 |
| sebsebseb | tuxwulf: true, but at least now you know you might want to set things up agian, when that other release comes out | 06:33 |
| ikonia | legend2440: yes | 06:33 |
| legend2440 | ikonia: ok thanks | 06:33 |
| sebsebseb | pcbuilder97: that sounds odd, but you also tried an early development version, so yep bugs | 06:34 |
| illumin8_ | [R], Just wanted to say thanks, apparently 80 is a blocked port probably by my isp. because 22 responds from outside my network. | 06:34 |
| tuxwulf | sebsebseb > Owkay, thanks.... but even in Oct I may nto upgrade immediately ... I willeventually , sutrely... | 06:34 |
| sebsebseb | tuxwulf: ok | 06:35 |
| pcbuilder97 | yeh it started when the partitioner started during setup it never stoped running | 06:35 |

| bazhang | dragon_, that would be the iso before you burn it (md5), after the burn is the disk integrity check | 07:15 |
| albech | how do i start a program on my other machine and display it on this one? DISPLAY=0:0 ./application ?? | 07:15 |
| delimax | i saw a new utility today for ubuntu linux 9.04 running on an hp mini 1000 with the stock kernel and the gnome laptop desktop environment | 07:16 |
| onexused | albech: The way I do it is ssh into the other machine with the -Y switch, then run the program from the same terminal. | 07:16 |
| delimax | it was CPU throttling. does that work just the way it sounds? | 07:16 |
| enigma415 | is there a way to hide all icons on the desktop (ubuntu 9.04)? (if so, how?) | 07:17 |
| delimax | enigma415: thats easy, just tell nautilus not to handle the icons | 07:17 |
| delimax | nautilus is the graphical frontend to your filesystem by default with gnome | 07:17 |

| dylan` | what remote access can we use instead of SSH for ubuntu | 07:17 |
| albech | onexused: ty.. i seem to remember using DISPLAY on my old SGI when doing that | 07:17 |
| delimax | dylan: why wouldn't you want to use ssh? | 07:18 |
| rufuscure | Is there a way to get a liveCD iso of ubuntu with enlightenment or kde ? (not dissing gnome | 07:18 |
| onexused | dylan`: There's the remote desktop program that's probably installed by default. But yes, why not ssh? | 07:18 |
| alex___ | rufuscure: Get Kubuntu... | 07:19 |
| onexused | rufuscure: kubuntu for KDE, xubuntu for xfce | 07:19 |
| delimax | dylan`: ssh is the defacto standard for remote shell access | 07:19 |
| rufuscure | Oic | 07:19 |
| rufuscure | So thats what the difference is in kubuntu and xubuntu | 07:20 |
| rufuscure | other than that it's ubuntu? | 07:20 |
| enigma415 | i see i need to rephrase my question literally: how can i have an empty desktop, void of anything, including drives, icons, files, folders, etc? (I know with windows its "mouseRightClick->Show->Hide All") | 07:20 |
| onexused | rufuscore: Only the desktop environment installed by default | 07:20 |
| alex___ | Does anyone know where the home folder might be on a usb stick with Ubuntu on it? | 07:21 |
| delimax | enigma415: when invoking nautilus | 07:21 |
| delimax | enigma415: use, nautilus --no-desktop | 07:21 |
| enigma415 | kk thanks | 07:22 |
| enigma415 | ill give it a shot | 07:22 |
| delimax | enigma415: try this, as root: killall nautilus | 07:22 |
| delimax | enigma415: nautilus --no-desktop & | 07:22 |
| rww | enigma415: open gconf-editor with Alt-F2, go to /apps/nautilus, and uncheck the stuff in the desktop subfolder and possibly elsewhere. | 07:22 |
| rww | enigma415: /apps/nautilus/preferences/show-desktop in gconf-editor might be useful, for example. | 07:23 |
| delimax | rww: yes that change will be more permanent :) | 07:23 |

| bazhang | johnny_, Karmic? | 07:25 |
| delimax | johnny_: what are you having trouble with? | 07:25 |
| johnny_ | what is that bazhang? | 07:25 |
| bazhang | johnny_, 9.10 | 07:25 |
| enigma415 | nvm ill google it. ill get better info that way. | 07:25 |
| gogeta | bazhang: 9.10 is testing lol | 07:25 |
| johnny_ | i want to install nvidia 177.80 in the last ubuntu version but it shows an error | 07:25 |
| delimax | which error? | 07:25 |
| bazhang | gogeta, johnny_ may be confused about his version | 07:25 |
| delimax | if you check the readme of each nvidia driver it will explicitly say which cards it supports | 07:26 |
| johnny_ | it says i need specify the path of the kernel but the kernel is ok, i tihkn is bcos 177.80 driver is little old | 07:26 |
| delimax | usually if its a mainstream card as long as you select the right architecture it will work, though | 07:26 |
| johnny_ | yep i saw the last nvidia driver 180 and it not support my card | 07:26 |
| delimax | johnny_: are you using a stock kernel from the package manager? | 07:26 |
| johnny_ | yes | 07:26 |
| delimax | you need your kernel source | 07:27 |
| dylan` | sorry kind of busy | 07:27 |
| delimax | or at least the headers | 07:27 |
| dylan` | i am just curious is there any beside ssh | 07:27 |
| delimax | to be able to compile the nvidia drivers | 07:27 |
| delimax | dylan`: theres no reason to use any other remote shell, ssh is simply the most secure and the most widely used | 07:27 |
| johnny_ | ii linux-headers-generic 2.6.28.11.15 Generic Linux kernel headers | 07:27 |

| delimax | if that fails, check /var/log/nvidia-installer | 07:29 |
| badboy_ | please my friends how i do refresh in my desktop? | 07:29 |
| delimax | and make a symlink from the location it is checking to the real location | 07:29 |
| johnny_ | ok but i dont know why my card is not supported officially in the last ubuntu | 07:30 |
| johnny_ | ok | 07:30 |
| rrajaratnam | delimax, I don't mean after the file is created, currently when a new file is made it's has 744 for permissions, I need it to be 755 | 07:30 |
| dylan` | how do we enable ssh in ubuntu? | 07:30 |
| delimax | sudo aptitude install openssh-client | 07:30 |
| dylan` | as a server? | 07:30 |
| dylan` | openssh-server? | 07:30 |
| lstarnes | dylan`: yes | 07:30 |
| Lopin | I know that this is going to be a stupid question, but does anyone know where the configuration file is that tells Ubuntu that Human should be the default theme? For instance, I have a custom theme, and I want to change it during an OEM install, so that the user sees my custom theme, rather than the human default. | 07:31 |
| delimax | rrajaratnam: i'm not sure how you can do that, i would start by determining which subsystem is responsible for setting the permissions of newly created files | 07:32 |
| Xioxia | woah | 07:32 |
| delimax | rrajaratnam: it also depends on which program/service actually creates them | 07:32 |
| Xioxia | way over my head. | 07:32 |
| delimax | rrajaratnam: if it is the direct result of a syscall, then you might be entering kernel space to find the solution | 07:33 |
| Lopin | I thought it would be in /usr/share/themes/Default, but that's completley bare.. | 07:33 |
| nomad77 | Lopin: in ~/.themes, ~/.gtkrc-2.0 ~/.gtkrc-2.0.mine, and or .Xdefaults for term colors etc. ,iirc | 07:33 |
| dylan` | how do we configure the user or any config for openssh? | 07:33 |
| Lopin | nomad77, Not the local user, like system wide... | 07:33 |
| Lopin | nomad77, is it not /usr/share/themes? | 07:34 |
| nomad77 | yes | 07:34 |
| rrajaratnam | delimax, thanks man | 07:34 |
| delimax | dylan`: edit /etc/ssh/sshconfig | 07:34 |
| delimax | *ssh_config | 07:34 |
| delimax | rrajaratnam: no problem. | 07:35 |
| nomad77 | Lopin: as well as /usr/share/icons /usr/share/wallpaper maybe | 07:35 |
| delimax | dylan`: that file will be the default config used for any user on your local system | 07:35 |
| Lopin | nomad77, So, that's where I'm putting the New Custom Theme... | 07:35 |
| Lopin | nomad77, But, it still treats Human as the default... | 07:36 |
| Lopin | Like, I don't want to overwrite Human... | 07:36 |
| Lopin | So, like does anyone know what configuration file says "Human is the default system theme."? | 07:36 |

| nomad77 | Lopin: then set the new in gnome-control-center>appearance | 07:37 |
| delimax | Lopin: sudo gnome-appearance-properties | 07:37 |
| mintux | delimax: where is gnome session setting file ? when I ran gnome-session-save which file modified ? | 07:37 |
| rrajaratnam | Lopin, why don't you just overwtire the human theme files with the theme you want to use? | 07:37 |
| delimax | Lopin: you can invoke it directly from the terminal | 07:37 |
| nomad77 | yup | 07:38 |
| delimax | minitux: run an strace on gnome-session-save | 07:39 |
| delimax | you'll be able to see all the syscalls it makes, including which files it does i/o to | 07:39 |

| iceroot | vise: yes | 09:07 |
| belim | iceroot, what do you mean? so everybody would watch the same upload not individual streams? surely thats a good thing? | 09:07 |
| iceroot | belim: if you have a video that need 100kbit/s and you have 3 watchers, you will need 300kbit/s | 09:07 |

| R0ncoToke | xavieran, I figured it out. Thank you! | 09:31 |
| xavieran | R0ncoToke: if you install xbindkeys-config you can get a gui tool for it, and check this out:http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/59494 | 09:31 |
| kg4cna | wizzo: have you tried "http://localhost:631/printers/" to see if it's listed there and if you can interact with it? | 09:32 |
| R0ncoToke | xavieran, I found the link. Thank you. | 09:32 |

| oeee | guys my taskbar has been dissapeared.... | 09:39 |
| Slart | lwells: because we have dependency hell instead ;) | 09:39 |
| ronald_ | because there is a lib-hell | 09:39 |

| ronald_ | yep shared libs | 09:40 |
| Slart | oeee: run this in a terminal "pkill gnome-panel; gnome-panel" | 09:40 |
| lwells | ronald_: just everything seems so stable | 09:40 |
| ronald_ | true | 09:41 |
| lwells | thousands of libraries and they never seem to conflict | 09:41 |
| Slart | lwells: I think the main reason is that most of the software you install come from a repository where someone has tested and tried to make sure everything plays nice | 09:43 |
| lwells | Slart: true, but most software will be tested right? | 09:44 |
| Slart | lwells: try installing all the stuff in the regular desktop distro by downloading tarballs from developer sites and things will start getting weird pretty soon | 09:44 |
| ronald_ | But you cant also deinstall evolution because of the lib links | 09:44 |
| R0ncoToke | xavieran, No way. Its not working. | 09:44 |
| Slart | lwells: the software from the repos will be tested, afaik | 09:44 |

| indus | glitsj16: i used some backport version but it still says 2.4 | 09:50 |
| kraut | moin | 09:50 |
| glitsj16 | indus: http://www.getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=pidgin has .debs you can download/install | 09:51 |

| melik | i have a huge text file.. how can i use mkdir command to grab the contents of the text file and make a bunch of directories | 09:51 |
| beli | indus: and in your path the old location comes first... | 09:51 |
| Paddy_NI | Hoss: /usr/share/icons/ | 09:51 |

| HELP-nosound | i really need a little help with the sound configuration on my thinkpad 600e running ubuntu jaunty, its not muted, there seems to be something about misrecognized hardware, but i can't follow the discussions in the threads, i just don;t have the xp with this, please help me, take my hand and walk me through the darkness (muteness) and show me the sound again :) i got the wireless dongle working all by myself and installed amsn and | 09:53 |

| Hoss | Paddy_NI: Another quick question. I mounted a folder in /mnt/shared and I want to know if it will remain mounted after reboot. Do I need to edit fstab for this? | 09:54 |
| iass | im running xubuntu and the taskbar has been dissapeared.... can anyone help? | 09:54 |
| R0ncoToke | xavieran, When i type in a key code it works. | 09:54 |
| Paddy_NI | Hoss: Well you could use mount-manager | 09:54 |
| Paddy_NI | !info mount-manager | Hoss | 09:54 |
| ubottu | Hoss: Package mount-manager does not exist in jaunty | 09:54 |
| Paddy_NI | hmm | 09:55 |
| Paddy_NI | sec | 09:55 |
| indus | beli i thought backports upgrades your old installation | 09:55 |

| ct529_ | hi indus .... found your graphic card? | 09:55 |
| ikonia | indus: that's packages from a later release that are backported to current | 09:55 |
| indus | ikonia: that means they will install over the old version correct? | 09:56 |
| indus | ct529_: ahh nextyear i buy | 09:56 |
| indus | ikonia: i added the repo and it said backport some pidgin available etc | 09:57 |
| indus | i installed it | 09:57 |
| ikonia | indus: sometimes, someetimes not, (firefox 3.5 being a good example) | 09:57 |
| indus | ikonia: iam talking about 8.04 | 09:57 |
| === trypes is now known as lots^bodies | ||
| ikonia | indus: it doesn't matter what your release is | 09:58 |
| indus | ikonia: ff-3.5 thats for jaunty which cant have a backport technically since its the latest isnt it | 09:58 |
| Hoss | Paddy_NI: looks like a very cool app... my laptop that just got ubuntu doesnt have internet connection at the moment. I will look up manual entries in fstab. I do like that app though. | 09:58 |
| glitsj16 | indus: you could add a PPA to get updates for pidgin instead of going the getdeb 'route' .. look at https://launchpad.net/~pidgin-developers/+archive/ppa | 09:58 |
| indus | ikonia: hmm but i get the point,maybe its a different installation | 09:58 |
| ikonia | indus: you're not listening, a backport is a release for a LATER ubuntu release, that is back ported to an older current release | 09:58 |
| Paddy_NI | Hoss: sure thing | 09:58 |
| ikonia | indus: eg: firefox 3.5 for jaunty would be backported to ubuntu 8.04 - that's a back port | 09:58 |
| indus | ikonia: i understand | 09:59 |
| HELP-nosound | nothing? no help for the total newb? | 09:59 |
| indus | HELP-nosound: can you repeat question please | 09:59 |

| HELP-nosound | what do i do to get sound working on this old thinkpad 600e with ubuntu jaunty | 10:00 |
| glitsj16 | indus: you're welcome, using it myself (for jaunty), works great | 10:00 |

| indus | glitsj16: its official pidgin ppa? i mean what about security and will it break anything | 10:01 |

| HELP-nosound | would you like a better nick? | 10:02 |
| glitsj16 | indus: they offer hardy packages, so i guess dependencies are okay | 10:03 |

| HELP-nosound | yes very confusing, type /join #helpmeThinkpad600e | 10:06 |
| ikonia | indus: how cool he is does not make the product stable/supportable, if you use a personal PPA people will struggle to support you in here | 10:06 |
| iass | grawity, ty!!! | 10:07 |

| HELP-nosound | indus sorry but how does this paste work, i have the output on clipboard | 10:31 |
| lstarnes | ^cheeky: you have to start irssi before you can issue that command | 10:31 |
| Slart | ^cheeky: you might want to actually run irssi first | 10:32 |
| ShapeShifter499 | hi | 10:32 |
| lstarnes | ^cheeky: you might want to start it in screen so that you can detach it without closing it | 10:32 |
| ShapeShifter499 | how do I mount a file created with the dd command? | 10:33 |
| ^cheeky | lstarnes, ok .. so it would screen irssi ? | 10:33 |
| boss_mc | !iso | ShapeShifter499 | 10:33 |
| ubottu | ShapeShifter499: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 10:33 |

| lstarnes | ^cheeky: that should work. You can then detach the screen with ctrl+a <release> d | 10:33 |
| ShapeShifter499 | i'm sorry I meant a img file | 10:33 |
| lstarnes | ^cheeky: and later retach it from the same ssh session or a different with screen -r | 10:33 |
| lwells | I installed vmware workstation, but now I want to remove it, how do I do that? | 10:34 |
| Slart | ShapeShifter499: img files are often iso images.. if they are not there are conversion tools availabls | 10:34 |
| frogzoo | any apps that will demo/test graphics 3D performance? | 10:34 |
| discorpia | ShapeShifter499, through a loopback device, -o loop i think | 10:34 |
| ^cheeky | lstarnes, well actually i just typed irrsi in the shh session and it worked .. and the link that they mentioned for noobs is missing | 10:34 |
| lstarnes | ^cheeky: screen and other gnu projects notate ctrl+a d as C-a d | 10:34 |
| Slart | frogzoo: glxgears is a simple little app | 10:34 |
| discorpia | ShapeShifter499, http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/how-to-mount-iso-image-under-linux.html | 10:34 |
| ShapeShifter499 | well its a backup img file that was made with the dd command | 10:34 |
| discorpia | ShapeShifter499, should apply to iso and img files alike | 10:34 |
| frogzoo | Slart: yep thx, was hoping for something a bit more impressive :) | 10:34 |
| boss_mc | ShapeShifter499: that sounds like iso | 10:35 |
| HELP-nosound | indus browser loading, remember this is a 500mhz machine | 10:35 |
| Slart | frogzoo: =) I think there are some benchmark-apps available.. haven't tried any myself though | 10:35 |
| frogzoo | ShapeShifter499: if you dump a cd/dvd with dd - that is an .iso image, and you can burn it straight to disk | 10:35 |
| zeroXten | how does one mask package updates to keep a particular version? | 10:35 |
| ShapeShifter499 | discorpia: so the backup I made of my windows partition thats now a img file I can mount it as a iso or what? | 10:36 |
| boss_mc | ShapeShifter499: try using the script from ubottu's message | 10:36 |
| frogzoo | zeroXten: it's not straightforward - google for a solution | 10:36 |
| discorpia | ShapeShifter499, yes, normally you can | 10:36 |
| boss_mc | !pinning | zeroXten | 10:36 |

| lstarnes | onexused: you might need to install the .deb with sudo dpkg -i filename.deb | 11:09 |
| Emery | antgel because your draggin it on | 11:10 |
| ikonia | secret: why ? | 11:10 |

| lstarnes | secret: you have to change to the directory that comes from it | 11:10 |
| richardcavell | onexused: I'm getting 30 frames per second on Software Render mode on an Intel Core 2 Duo. I should be getting more than that. Something's wrong. | 11:10 |
| ikonia | secret: run "tar zxvf $filename" against the tar's file name | 11:10 |
| antgel | Emery: great, look forward to you realising that the way to learn about FOSS is to, er, learn, not to flame anybody who comes along with a better idea than yours | 11:10 |
| indus | ikonia: secret : i believe he has already untarred it? | 11:10 |
| onexused | richardcavell: crash - really? I haven't had problems when wine crashes, either... "Wine's internals" The registry? The windows directory? What? | 11:10 |

| makayabou | How can I add quit entry in applications.menu? | 11:11 |

| ikonia | Emery: antgel lets move on please. | 11:11 |
| indus | jgomez2: what issues | 11:11 |
| richardcavell | onexused: Mate, it just crashes and I can't figure out why. I have to reset my computer to get it working again. | 11:11 |
| grawity | makayabou: 'alacarte' | 11:11 |
| Hustlers_23 | using mencoder | 11:11 |
| antgel | Emery: no | 11:11 |
| richardcavell | onexused: I've filed bug reports with appDB/wineHQ | 11:11 |
| indus | jgomez2: try playing the file with totem movie player first | 11:11 |
| grawity | Emery: Is it difficult to understand "This behavior is not welcome here. Please go away"? | 11:11 |
| indus | Emery: cool down | 11:12 |
| Emery | how's about ... no ? | 11:12 |
| ikonia | Emery: Please - | 11:12 |
| jgomez2 | indus: All of the players I have (totem, VLC,Mplayer) do not detect that a DVD is in hte drive | 11:12 |
| Emery | ikonia, k. | 11:12 |
| secret | ikonia, this is now from inside the folder | 11:12 |
| richardcavell | onexused: I basically can't run it in a window at all. | 11:12 |
| ikonia | Emery: thank you | 11:12 |

| Hotcoral | whois s emery | 11:12 |
| secret | ikonia, i dont get ti | 11:12 |
| Hotcoral | anyways :P | 11:12 |
| indus | jgomez2: hmm is the cd rom even mounting? i mean dvdrom | 11:12 |
| ikonia | secret: please do the same for upload and docs | 11:12 |
| indus | jgomez2: are you using 9.04? | 11:13 |
| antgel | indus: thanks for that, but that's more to do with debugging it when it crashes rather than getting verbose log output | 11:13 |
| jgomez2 | indus: yes | 11:13 |
| secret | ikonia, tar zxvf $filename? | 11:13 |
| indus | antgel: cant you add a -vv to the initial command i gave first? | 11:13 |
| gajop | can ubuntu be easily updated to 'new versions', that is from 9.04 to 9.10 (or whatever the next version will be) when it comes, or do you have to do a clean install? | 11:13 |
| secret | ikonia, wait, with the $? | 11:13 |
| ikonia | secret: no, cd into the uploads and the docs folder and pastebin ls | 11:13 |
| jgomez2 | indus: and I have already downloaded libdvdcss2 with no avail | 11:13 |
| grawity | !upgrade | 11:13 |
| richardcavell | onexused: I have some coding skill, so I could help them, but WINE seems to be a bit exclusive of new developers. Some people have been suggesting they'll fork the project, which seems like a good idea. | 11:13 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 11:13 |
| richardcavell | gajop: easy peasy | 11:14 |
| grawity | gajop: see the above link from ubottu | 11:14 |
| indus | jgomez2: the codec doesnt seem to be the problem,it cantreadthe dvd | 11:14 |
| Hustlers_23 | anyone here used mencoder to code rmvb to avi to play on ps3 before | 11:14 |
| gajop | grawity, thanks, got it | 11:14 |
| lstarnes | jgomez2: have you tried a different dvd? | 11:14 |
| ikonia | Hustlers_23: find out what format the ps3 needs | 11:14 |
| indus | jgomez2: do you see the dvd mounted on the dsktop? | 11:14 |
| secret | ikonia, wait, with the $ | 11:14 |
| antgel | indus: no, because i don't want to use gdb - i just want to grab NetworkManager's debug output | 11:14 |
| secret | ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu.com/224228/plain/ | 11:14 |
| jgomez2 | indus: no i do not see the dvd mounted on the desktop | 11:14 |
| lstarnes | secret: no, withougt the $ | 11:14 |
| jgomez2 | indus: however, i never saw it on the desktop for disks 1 and 2 | 11:14 |
| ikonia | secret: secret ahhh it's a PHP application | 11:14 |
| indus | jgomez2: do u see it in nautilus> i mean the file explorer | 11:15 |
| secret | ikonia, yeah, ok, i did it without, just wanted to be sure | 11:15 |
| ikonia | secret: you need to put those directories in your document root of your web server | 11:15 |
| secret | ikonia aha, | 11:15 |
| secret | ikonia that means? | 11:15 |
| ikonia | secret: it's a web application, not a compiled program | 11:15 |
| secret | ikonia oh dear, what i have to do? | 11:15 |
| richardcavell | Hey guys, is there a simple way of installing all non-free optional components of Ubuntu (codecs, etc), like a meta-package? | 11:15 |
| onexused | richardcavell: For me, OpenGL works just fine, software render freezes, and DirectX is a little jerky but otherwise fine (this is using 1280x960 screen size, fullscreen) | 11:15 |
| jgomez2 | indus: i wonder why it would change i am on disc three of a movie and disc one and two worked fine | 11:15 |
| ikonia | secret: you need to setup and run a web server, then put those directories in the web servers "root" | 11:15 |
| onexused | richardcavell: Does it run better for you fullscreen? | 11:15 |
| jgomez2 | indus: then i put in disc three... now none of them read | 11:15 |
| lstarnes | richardcavell: you could try the ubuntu-restricted-extras metapackage | 11:15 |
| richardcavell | onexused: Crikey | 11:15 |
| indus | jgomez2: you mean the disk was working before? | 11:16 |
| richardcavell | lstarnes: ty | 11:16 |
| gajop | richardcavell, that's good to know, i'm used to rolling release distros like archlinux | 11:16 |
| secret | ikonia i have apache2 | 11:16 |
| makayabou | grawity, alacarte doesn't allow to add Quit | 11:16 |
| jgomez2 | indus: not this specific disk, but the drive | 11:16 |
| richardcavell | onexused: I basically can't use it windowed | 11:16 |
| indus | jgomez2:paste the output of mount please | 11:16 |
| indus | !paste | 11:16 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic | 11:16 |
| ikonia | secret: well, that's a good start, drop those directories in your document root | 11:16 |
| jgomez2 | indus: how do i check the disk in nautilus? | 11:16 |
| secret | ikonia can i not created it in a other way? like, bin/sh? | 11:16 |
| ikonia | secret: no | 11:16 |
| ikonia | secret: it's a web site based application from what I'm seeing | 11:17 |
| onexused | richardcavell: I must misunderstand what you mean by that. Are you saying you can't figure out how to run it windowed, or that it runs badly when it's windowed? | 11:17 |
| secret | ikonia ok, now i have to search for the folder | 11:17 |
| indus | jgomez2: nautilus is name of file manager, just click on home folder and look in side pane if u see device | 11:17 |
| ikonia | secret: /var/www/html ? | 11:17 |
| ikonia | secret: /var/www ? | 11:17 |
| FloodBot2 | ikonia: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 11:17 |
| secret | ikonia there? | 11:17 |
| ikonia | secret: check | 11:17 |
| indus | ikonia: stop flooding please :) | 11:17 |
| ikonia | indus: please don't be silly | 11:18 |
| indus | thats by nature | 11:18 |
| jgomez2 | indus: in my / directory there is the dev folder | 11:18 |
| secret | ikonia index.html | 11:18 |
| ikonia | indus: please don't, the channel is busy enough | 11:18 |
| HELP-nosound | indus which mixer? | 11:18 |
| ikonia | secret: where is index.html | 11:18 |
| richardcavell | onexused: when I run it windowed, in OpenGL mode I get 4 frames per second and in software mode I get about one frame every 5 seconds. In Direct3D it freezes. And the start menu persists throughout the game and the game content flickers madly. | 11:18 |
| jgomez2 | indus: and it says dvd in it | 11:18 |
| indus | HELP-nosound: alsamixer | 11:18 |
| secret | ikonia into this folder or separate | 11:18 |
| secret | /usr/www/index.html | 11:18 |
| ikonia | secret: that's not a folder, - thats a file | 11:18 |
| indus | jgomez2: hmm can u click on it and see files? | 11:19 |
| secret | ikonia ya, i ment that | 11:19 |
| ikonia | secret: /usr/www/index ? | 11:19 |
| secret | ikonia :-) | 11:19 |
| ikonia | secret: /usr/www ??? are you sure ? | 11:19 |
| secret | ikonia yes | 11:19 |
| jgomez2 | indus: click on the dev folder? | 11:19 |
| indus | what is this? php class? | 11:19 |
| ikonia | secret: please show me the output of uname -a | 11:19 |
| ikonia | indus: no - it's not a php class | 11:19 |
| onexused | richardcavell: Okay, so it runs very slowely windowed. What about fullscreen? | 11:19 |
| indus | ikonia: i think this is off topic | 11:19 |
| ikonia | indus: you think wrong then | 11:19 |
| indus | ikonia: definitely not ubuntu specific help ,more apache | 11:20 |
| Flannel | indus: Yes, it is. | 11:20 |
| richardcavell | onexused: In software mode I get about 30 fps fullscreen. In OpenGL, 10-15 fps fullscreen. Direct3D freezes. | 11:20 |
| indus | ikonia: you are the mod , so who can tell you anyway | 11:20 |
| ikonia | indus: the guy is trying to setup a web application on ubuntu - it's fine | 11:20 |
| pkkm | sash_: I meant to lock screen like when clicking 'Lock screen' in menu where 'Logout...' is, not to lock screen COMPLETELY. | 11:20 |
| richardcavell | onexused: That's 640x480 on a 2nd-gen MacBook. Intel Core 2 Duo | 11:20 |
| error404notfound | how can check which version of mediawiki is in jaunty repo? | 11:20 |
| lstarnes | error404notfound: aptitude show mediawiki | 11:20 |
| richardcavell | onexused: If I increase the resolution the frame rates drop precipitously | 11:20 |
| Hustlers_23 | Anyone using Ubuntu on the PS3 or has tried before? would love to know | 11:20 |
| indus | ikonia: cool, ill remember that vague explanation | 11:20 |
| onexused | richardcavell: I see. | 11:21 |
| sash_ | pkkm: you can just type your password and press enter. there is just no login prompt. | 11:21 |
| secret | ikonia Linux root 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 21:57:00 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 11:21 |
| ikonia | secret: what ubuntu version is that | 11:21 |
| secret | ikonia from the secret@root:/var/www | 11:21 |
| richardcavell | onexused: some things are obviously just plain not working correctly. But others must be bottlenecked. On my hardware, running Half-Life under Windows 7 natively, I get very high frame rates in all 3 modes. | 11:21 |
| secret | ikonia crunchbang | 11:21 |
| ikonia | secret: that's not ubuntu | 11:21 |
| HELP-nosound | indus got it installing mixer now | 11:21 |
| pkkm | sash: Thanks | 11:21 |
| jgomez2 | indus: I click on my cd/dvd drive and it says no media in the drive | 11:21 |
| onexused | richardcavell: What version of wine do you have? | 11:22 |
| ikonia | jgomez2: please hold for a moment | 11:22 |
| uknow | can someone help me install a sis 771/671 video driver | 11:22 |
| richardcavell | onexused: the latest. 1.1.26. I tried the 'stable' release - 1.01. Forget about it. | 11:22 |
| ikonia | secret: you'll need to use the crunchbag support resources to help you through that | 11:22 |
| secret | ikonia great, and where can i find it? | 11:22 |
| Emery | google? | 11:22 |
| ikonia | secret: no idea, check their website | 11:23 |
| onexused | richardcavell: Yeah, 1.0.1 is way too old. I have 1.1.24. I'm very surprised it's working so badly for you. | 11:23 |
| richardcavell | onexused: mind you, I'll give them credit. It gets better all the time. | 11:23 |
| richardcavell | onexused: Given that the game is about 10 years old, it ought not to tax my computer in any way. | 11:23 |
| makayabou | How can I add quit entry in applications.menu? | 11:24 |
| onexused | richardcavell: One more thing before I give up : ) You -are- talking about the version with steam, no? You get the same results with the non-steam version? | 11:24 |
| Emery | makayabou, right click menu | 11:24 |
| richardcavell | onexused: still, 3D support appears to be a priority for WINE (as well as the virtualization solutions), so I imagine this will improve | 11:24 |
| richardcavell | onexused: I haven't installed the non-steam version. | 11:24 |
| jonex_ | somebody knows AJAX | 11:25 |
| onexused | richardcavell: If it were me, I'd try that just to see how it worked. My only experience with steam was with a much older computer than you have, but Half-Life seemed slower with steam than without it. | 11:25 |
| richardcavell | onexused: I'm currently downloading the Source version to see if that improves things. Since Half-Life 2 is rated 'Gold' on AppDB, I hope that its engine (Source) is more compatible with WINE. | 11:26 |
| makayabou | How can I add quit entry in applications.menu? | 11:26 |
| makayabou | alacarte doesn't allow that | 11:26 |
| Emery | richardcavell, i'm sure there is a half life port for linux .. it uses quake engine doesn't it ? | 11:26 |
| lstarnes | makayabou: I don't think it's possible | 11:26 |
| richardcavell | onexused: I ought to be able to play a good game of Half-Life on a sh*tty old computer from ebay that costs me $50 | 11:26 |
| uknow | does anyone know the driver for the sis 771/671 video card | 11:26 |
| richardcavell | Emery: it uses a modified quake engine. I'm not aware of a Linux port of it. | 11:27 |

| secret | ikonia cant copy the file into another fodler | 11:28 |
| onexused | angel_: If it's -corrupted-, you don't want to. If it was just cut off, say "wget -c url" | 11:29 |
| angel_ | onexused: the internet connection was disconnected | 11:30 |
| richardcavell | onexused: there are a couple of how tos on the Internet about configuring Half-Life to make it work better. I'll give them a shot | 11:30 |
| onexused | angel_: Then you should just be able to continue the download with "wget -c url" from the directory the file's in. | 11:30 |
| onexused | richardcavell: Good luck. | 11:30 |

| done365 | I've tried to use synCe and tried to follow their install directions, but just won't work | 11:38 |
| bazhang | jgomez2, blank media? commercial dvd? could you please clarify a bit? are you trying to burn to data dvd, play a video dvd or other | 11:39 |
| HELP-nosound | need help with sound on thinkpad 600e | 11:39 |
| done365 | when I re-install odccm, I can see files, but if I install synce-engine it uninstalls odccm, and I see nothing | 11:40 |
| jgomez2 | bazhang: It is a commercial DVD. One night i was playing it, I shut down my computer to go to sleep. I woke up and then my computer no longer read that, or any of my other DVDs. However it does read commercial CDs. | 11:40 |
| Ravahan | Hello, anyone able to help me out with an error I'm getting installing runtime 2k through WineTricks? | 11:40 |
| hrw | hi | 11:41 |
| bazhang | jgomez2, so no video dvds play at all any more; what version of ubuntu, and apart from shutting down your computer, was there anything else that preceded this issue | 11:41 |
| hrw | as packages.ubuntu.com do not load I have a question | 11:41 |
| hrw | is there a php 5.3.0 (or newer) in Ubuntu? | 11:42 |
| Slart | hrw: do you know the package name for php? | 11:42 |
| hrw | Slart: php5 | 11:42 |
| jgomez2 | bazhang: I am on 9.04. And no between when i watched the DVD and rebooted, there may have been facebook, but nothing else | 11:42 |
| cocontmi | gnit all we will meet again | 11:42 |
| Slart | !info php5 | 11:42 |

| Slart | hrw: looks like it's 5.2.6 | 11:43 |
| bazhang | jgomez2, what app are you using to play the dvd's? have you tried alternate ones as workaround by chance? | 11:43 |
| fx3 | Hello, Ive got a massive problem. My raid5 array does not want to assemble properly, all 3 disks are healthy. here is a like from /proc/mdstat: inactive sdd1[1](S) sde1[2](S) sdc1[0](S) | 11:43 |
| hrw | shit | 11:43 |
| Ravahan | Anyone able to assist with an error installing runtime 2k in WineTricks? Or am I in the wrong IRC? | 11:43 |
| bazhang | hrw, please no cursing | 11:44 |
| meglo | Why. | 11:44 |
| meglo | Why am I here. | 11:44 |
| meglo | gnome-xchat is silly. | 11:44 |
| cocontmi | /nick c0c0ntMi-AwAy | 11:44 |
| bazhang | meglo, then choose another | 11:44 |
| jgomez2 | bazhang: I have tried kmplayer, vlc, Mplayer, xine, totem | 11:44 |
| cocontmi | /nick c0c0ntMi-AwAy | 11:44 |
| Flannel | !away > cocontmi | 11:45 |
| ubottu | cocontmi, please see my private message | 11:45 |
| bazhang | jgomez2, so they simply fail to see the dvd, or they refuse to play it with an error | 11:45 |
| meglo | Incredibly silly. I just exited because I clicked on listing the channels, it stopped responding because there are like 100k channels on freenode and it is set to list every single one 1 person and up | 11:45 |
| meglo | and it crashed | 11:45 |
| meglo | it is like i'm cursed, so many things happened software/hardware/network wise this night | 11:45 |
| jgomez2 | bazhang: I think they fail to see the dvd, i hear the dvd spinning for about 45 seconds, then stops. | 11:45 |
| meglo | but this isn't the channel I need | 11:45 |
| bazhang | meglo, /msg alis list *channel* in future | 11:45 |
| Flannel | meglo: /msg alis #*term* | 11:45 |
| hrw | thx and bye | 11:46 |
| L3dPlatedLinux | rtorrent is way better then any of the other gui torrent clients just takes a little to get used to | 11:46 |
| meglo | bazhang: it was a mis-click. It ended it gnome-xchat dying on a large network with many channels. | 11:46 |
| meglo | Flannel: It was a mis-click. | 11:46 |
| Ravahan | No one knows anything about WineTricks or where I could find some support? | 11:46 |
| HELP-nosound | still no sound on thinkpad600e | 11:46 |

| teknet29 | Thanks in advance. | 12:06 |
| iFuzo | Hold on guys... | 12:06 |
| maureen | hai | 12:07 |
| junkeR__ | Hello everyone, does ubuntu 9.04 have better support for suspend/hibernation? | 12:07 |
| done365 | bazhang: the tutorials seem to already assume you have installed, but seem to neglect the fact that it uninstalls when you follow their steps. I believe that I need all three, becuase with the first two I can't do anything and with just the third synce-pls show file folders on my mogul | 12:07 |
| lesshaste | jaunty has this maddening problem where sometimes I can't switch focus between windows | 12:07 |
| onexused | ubuntu__: I believe there's an icon on the live cd's desktop that will run the install. I might be wrong, though. | 12:07 |
| Flannel | junkeR__: Yes, actually. | 12:07 |
| lesshaste | no matter what I do it seems to want to keep the focus on some old terminal window | 12:08 |
| lesshaste | has anyone else seen this and does anyone know a fix? | 12:08 |
| bazhang | done365, could you link me the tutorial? I found one about htc but a different model | 12:08 |
| lesshaste | I have to restart X to fix it each time | 12:08 |
| bouma | how can i get some help in repairing my 9.04 ext4 failure ?? | 12:08 |
| teknet29 | Why doesn't this service just start upon loading of the appropriate drivers with the -nat command to iptables? That is still puzzling me. ON BSD, either it works because it can, or it doesn't because the kernel module is not installed. | 12:08 |
| iFuzo | In reagards to the person who asked about Mac, Do you want a dual-boot or use your whole partion? | 12:08 |
| onexused | lesshaste: I know in gnome, you can set a window to stay on top. If you right-click on the title bar, is "always on top" checked? | 12:08 |
| ubuntu__ | onexused, yes, i can reinstall mac os later i guess | 12:09 |
| ubuntu__ | onexused, i just dont like macos its too commercial with codecs for example and quicktime | 12:09 |
| bouma | is there a tool to repair ext4 | 12:09 |
| bouma | or to let me mount ext4 from 8.10 ?? | 12:09 |
| causasui | jgomez2: You still having problems with DVDs? | 12:09 |
| jrib | bouma: fsck? | 12:09 |
| lesshaste | onexused, it isn't but it isn't actually on top when this happens.. | 12:09 |
| done365 | bazhang: http://www.synce.org/moin/SynceInstallation/Ubuntu/ModernDevice , http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=136257&page=15 , the first is the official of synce and the other seemed to deal closely with my problem, but not exactly | 12:09 |
| jgomez2 | causasui: yes i am | 12:10 |
| lesshaste | onexused, as an example the mouse stays in the shape for typing in a terminal and doesn't become a pointer | 12:10 |
| causasui | jgomez2: Did you install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package? | 12:10 |
| onexused | lesshaste: Okay. I guess I don't have a solution for you then. Sorry. | 12:10 |
| iFuzo | Ubuntu__: Try inserting your disk than selecting the boot menu and run the installion for ubuntu. And choose the Mac OS partion to install it on. This way it will overwrite it | 12:10 |
| onexused | ubuntu__: If you don't want MacOS at all, it's easy to overwrite it. If you want to dual-boot Ubuntu and MacOSX, you should be able to do that, too. | 12:11 |
| jgomez2 | causasui: yes | 12:11 |
| onexused | ubuntu__: What iFuzo said. | 12:11 |
| causasui | jgomez2: What are you using to play DVDs? Also, are you sure the drive isn't physically failing and that the DVDs are not corrupted? | 12:11 |
| Ravahan | onexused: Well, now I learned something from that at least. But nogo on starting the app. "fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000500" when I try to run the game's exe file. | 12:11 |
| bazhang | done365, did you use the experimental kde4 PPA? that seems to be the source of the packages conflict if so | 12:12 |
| jgomez2 | causasui: is there a way i can check if the drive is physically failing and i am sure the dvds are not corrupted they work in my xbox | 12:12 |
| ubuntu__ | iFuzo, i'm in xchat using the livecd right now | 12:12 |
| ubuntu__ | iFuzo, only thing that i might be missing is future firmware updates | 12:12 |
| causasui | jgomez2: I don't know of any good way except to put another drive in the machine or take that one out and put it in another machine. PM me and I'll see if I can help other than that | 12:12 |
| onexused | Ravahan: And nothing happens at all, after that? It may be that you'll have to install it with wine so you -can- get the dlls you were talking about, then : \ | 12:12 |
| iFuzo | Ubuntu__: You can run them at a later date after the installiation | 12:13 |
| done365 | bazhang: no I didn't have that spec app installed, uninstalled any related apps first | 12:13 |
| bouma | jrib: well fsck gives me many opportunities to say <y> but im afraid i will damage it further. can i mount it ro from this 8.10 system and copy the files across. can i get a kernel module that will let me mount ext4 ? | 12:13 |
| danbhfive | jgomez2: dmesg may report errors if the drive was bad | 12:13 |
| Ravahan | Onexused: Yeah, I'm going to try it and see if it'll load this installer. I've hot had any luck with installers at all so far (which is how I ended up with WineTricks) for windows apps. | 12:13 |
| ubuntu__ | iFuzo, the firmware updates? i need macos to run them? | 12:14 |
| jrib | bouma: I don't know. I would use a jaunty live cd | 12:14 |
| onexused | How do I get apt to use a server I set in synaptic instead of the default server? When I run apt-cache for a file I want to update, I see the same number beside the server I set and the default one, with the default on top. | 12:14 |
| Ravahan | Onexused: I'm pretty sure I saw Daemon Tools in synaptic, so I'm gonna load up my disk rip in that and do a fresh install wherever Wine wants it-- assuming it works. | 12:14 |
| iFuzo | Ohh, Well you can run them at a later date anyway? | 12:14 |
| Ravahan | Onexused: Back in a bit, I'll let you know whether or not it works. | 12:15 |
| onexused | Ravahan: You shouldn't need daemon tools to mount isos in Linux. Just use "mount" : ) | 12:15 |
| Ravahan | Onexused: Oh that's so freaking awesome | 12:15 |
| onexused | Ravahan: "mount -o loop isofile mountpoint" You probably need to run it as root, though. "sudo mount..." | 12:16 |
| Ravahan | onexused: Alright. I'll need to snag it off my network first. | 12:17 |

| Flannel | gnu-dio: They do, yes. They're just not necessarily stable during testing. Ask further questions in #ubuntu+1 (including the current state of the release) | 12:31 |
| djnomad | onexused, it did nothing but skip to next line | 12:31 |
| Leoneof | i used UnBootin, in case to install Ubuntu via ISO, because i don't have DVD drive, nor USB | 12:31 |
| jkp | does anyone know of a way to "broadcast" or redirect the output of a terminal session to another terminal that someone could hook into from a different account? | 12:32 |
| onexused | djnomad: for the original command, you mean? Will you pastebin the output of "mount" (no quotes), please? | 12:32 |
| Leoneof | oops UnetBootin* | 12:32 |
| jrib | jkp: you can do it with screen... | 12:32 |
| bazhang | done365, there are a couple of forum threads about syncing the htc touch pro, but so far the modul does not seem to be syncable with linux/ubuntu at this point in time | 12:32 |
| jkp | jrib: i know i can let someone hook in with screen -x | 12:32 |
| Bala | ifuzo: any idea? | 12:32 |
| jrib | jkp: ok | 12:33 |
| jkp | but i want a different user to connect to the session | 12:33 |
| jrib | jkp: you can do it with screen... | 12:33 |
| Leoneof | i got Linux shell, how to install Ubutunt? | 12:33 |
| jkp | jrib: do you know how? | 12:33 |
| oDesk | iFuzo: thank you, it works | 12:33 |
| djnomad | onexused, so just terminal the mount alone ? | 12:33 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Try merging your front volume control with your headphones | 12:33 |
| iFuzo | oDesk: No problem | 12:33 |
| gnu-dio | Flannel: thanks. that's the answer I wanted. I've got no problems dealing with instability on this machine, I just didn't want to reinstall on release day. | 12:33 |
| jrib | jkp: it requires setting something suid and setting some screen option, I would have to look it up. poke me if you can't find it | 12:33 |
| === imlad is now known as imlad-away | ||
| jrib | !away > imlad-away | 12:34 |
| jkp | jrib: suid sounds dodgy :/ | 12:34 |
| jrib | jkp: yeah | 12:34 |
| djnomad | http://pastebin.com/m551e7249 | 12:34 |
| Leoneof | hello???? | 12:34 |
| jkp | i supposes i could rediect my output to a text file the person could read | 12:34 |
| Bala | ifuzo: i did everything | 12:34 |
| iFuzo | Bala: And your sure its not your headphones? | 12:34 |
| Bala | ifuzo: sorry? | 12:35 |
| paddy_melon | titan, u on, on a new nickname? | 12:35 |
| done365 | bazhang: they have the same hardware and software save for their sim card compatability, are you basing your observation from the lack of forum threads or do you have some other reason to belief it shouldn't work ie: specific thread saying so?? | 12:35 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Are your headphones working | 12:35 |
| mzz | Bala: see earlier comments about enabling relevant tracks in volume control | 12:36 |
| onexused | djnomad: Okay, none of the partitions on your other hard drive are mounted right now. Try mounting one "mkdir ~/foo && sudo mount /dev/sdb1 ~/foo" | 12:36 |
| Bala | ifuzo: yeah working | 12:36 |
| Sergiu24 | hi. I have ubuntu 8.04 LTS and i get this error: E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (1) on findutils | 12:36 |
| bazhang | done365, you are welcome to try the htc touch threads, a number of Linux and Ubuntuforums threads report no success wrt mogul. sorry not to be of more assistance | 12:36 |
| Bala | mzz: i'm newbie so ............. | 12:36 |
| leslo | Hello all! | 12:37 |
| EruditeHermit | hi, how do you make update-grub see kernels on other partitions? | 12:37 |
| done365 | bazhang: I beg to differ, another head shaking no is confirmation that I'm not just ignorant! | 12:37 |
| bony1 | which is the best search engine other than google? | 12:37 |
| jrib | EruditeHermit: you mean for other distros on a different partition? | 12:38 |
| jrib | !ot | bony1 | 12:38 |
| jkp | jrib: bash -i |& tee somefile | 12:38 |
| ubottu | bony1: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 12:38 |
| leslo | With regards to Ubuntu's Validated Hardware list <http://webapps.ubuntu.com/certificat...ategory=Server>, I'm hoping someone can enlighten me as to why the sixth generation Hewlett Packard Proliant DL360 and DL380 servers are specified as being a PC (x86) architecture and not 64-bit PC (x86_64), like their predecessors the G5. | 12:38 |
| bony1 | that gives unbiased results | 12:38 |
| djnomad | http://pastebin.com/m5c7cc71a | 12:38 |
| onexused | djnomad: If that works, you should be able to access the files on the first partition of your second hard drive be looking in /home/dj/foo . (if you reboot, it'll go away, though.) | 12:38 |
| EruditeHermit | jrib: I have another ubuntu install on a separate partition | 12:38 |
| leslo | #ubuntu-server is dead at the moment and I would like an answer before we unbox... | 12:38 |
| jrib | leslo: you should contact canonical | 12:39 |
| djnomad | that worked onexused thanks | 12:39 |
| djnomad | onexused, will I have to do that every boot ? | 12:39 |
| EruditeHermit | jrib: when I first installed that partition it detected both, but I wanted my first install to be in control of the boot loader | 12:39 |
| onexused | djnomad: You can set it to mount somewhere automatically. | 12:40 |
| jrib | EruditeHermit: it's probably easier to just chainload | 12:40 |
| djnomad | thats in fstab ? | 12:40 |
| onexused | djnomad: Either there, or somewhere else. Most people mount things in /mnt or /media, so you might want to tell it to mount there. | 12:40 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Has your mic got a volume control on it? | 12:40 |
| onexused | djnomad: Yes. | 12:40 |
| EruditeHermit | jrib: but grub is capable of detecting the other partition isn't it? | 12:40 |
| leslo | @jrib, indeed do you have any advice about how best to do that? | 12:40 |
| djnomad | media would be great for me I think | 12:40 |
| onexused | djnomad: Sorry, I wasn't clear: /mnt/something or /media/something : ) | 12:41 |
| onexused | djnomad: cool : ) | 12:41 |
| cheeky | q | 12:41 |
| Bala | ifuzo: yeah | 12:41 |
| jrib | leslo: not really, check the contact details on ubuntu.com or canonical.com. Eventually you'll probably get pointed to the right place | 12:41 |
| cheeky | sorry . iam trying to dissconnect from irssi ... which iam in right now | 12:41 |
| iFuzo | Bala: And that is turned up? | 12:42 |
| leslo | jrib: thank you, I will. | 12:42 |
| djnomad | onexused, I dunno what you mean on how to do that but its all cool thanks for help so far,I can copy what you gave me in a notepad and use it that way for now | 12:42 |
| onexused | djnomad: Do you want help getting it to mount automatically? | 12:42 |
| djnomad | onexused, I dont know why but thunar is the only file manager that dont have that mounted | 12:42 |
| djnomad | onexused, if you got the time I would love it | 12:42 |
| jrib | EruditeHermit: sure, but you asked about the "update-grub" script right? | 12:43 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Try this solution. | 12:43 |
| onexused | I'll take it to PM if that's okay with you. | 12:43 |
| EruditeHermit | jrib: well whatever is needed to have it detect both. If its a different script then point me to that | 12:43 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Right click the speaker icon on the gnome panel and open "Volume Control" | 12:43 |
| djnomad | I have installed all kinds of forks of ubuntu and xubuntu is my fav except for this prob | 12:43 |
| djnomad | ok | 12:43 |
| jrib | EruditeHermit: I get the impression you want the menu.lst to be automatically updated when you install a kernel on either install. That doesn't seem like a trivial thing | 12:44 |
| Bala | ifuzo: ok next? | 12:44 |
| iFuzo | Bala: If you dont have a speaker icon press Alt+F2 and type gnome-volume-control than click run | 12:44 |
| djnomad | io think pcman file manager worked fine would that be too aweful bad to put on xubuntu ? | 12:44 |
| frogzoo1 | Bala: installing gnome-alsamixer might help your problem | 12:45 |
| Bala | ifuzo: already installed alsamixer | 12:45 |
| iFuzo | Bala: I didnt say that lol. Did you try what I said? | 12:45 |
| jrib | EruditeHermit: what's wrong with chainloading? | 12:45 |
| EruditeHermit | jrib: what happened is this. I have my daily install which I installed first. I then installed a test install. That rewrote the bootloader and started booting that partition automatically and took control. I reinstalled grub using my original partition. Now grub doesn't see the test partition kernels. I want it to detect that it exists. Is that possible? | 12:45 |
| Bala | ifuzo: :-) coooooool | 12:46 |
| onexused | djnomad: If you install it with apt-get or synaptic, it ought to install everything it needs to run. | 12:46 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Did it work? | 12:46 |
| voidmage | is there a firefox addon like keyconfig that works in 3.5? I'm looking for something to suppress ctrl+q | 12:46 |
| jrib | EruditeHermit: yes, setup chainloading for that other install | 12:46 |
| onexused | djnomad: It might be hard to get ubuntu to use pcman instead of thunar by default, though | 12:46 |
| voidmage | (and keyconfig worked in 3.0 but hasn't been updated yet) | 12:46 |
| Bala | ifuzo: shown volume control | 12:46 |
| Bala | ifuzo: nxt | 12:46 |
| EruditeHermit | jrib: is there a script to do that or do I have to manually edit menu.lst? | 12:46 |
| onexused | djnomad: Say something to me in PM, please? My IRC client's weird and I sometimes can't just /msg people. | 12:47 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Click Preferences and make sure all the mic related settings and ticked | 12:47 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Than you can close it | 12:47 |
| jrib | EruditeHermit: just edit menu.lst and add: title Test Ubuntu; root (hd0,1); chainload +1; where ; are newlines and you update root to the right partition | 12:47 |

| iFuzo | Bala: Hmm | 12:51 |
| EruditeHermit | jrib: ok thanks | 12:51 |
| onexused | Ravahan: That's too bad. I don't have much experience telling what wine errors mean, unfortunately. | 12:52 |
| Ravahan | Onexused: That's totally fine, I learned a lot from this anyway | 12:52 |
| jrib | smellynoser: dpkg -L command-not-found | grep bash | 12:52 |
| Ravahan | Onexused: Maybe this should be common sense, but how could I completely remove wine and winetricks and all their components to do a fresh installation? | 12:53 |
| onexused | Ravahan: All your wine settings and everything installed with it are in /home/Ravahan/.wine by default. The .wine folder may be hidden. | 12:54 |
| Bala | ifuzo: cool it's ok how to play nfs most wanted | 12:54 |
| Ravahan | So uninstall via add/remove or Synaptic and then delete .wine? | 12:54 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Install Wine | 12:54 |
| Ravahan | Onexused: Sorry, So uninstall via add/remove or Synaptic and then delete .wine? | 12:54 |
| frogzoo1 | Ravahan: dpkg --purge wine | 12:55 |
| iFuzo | Bala: apt-get install wine | 12:55 |
| iFuzo | Than you can run windows applications | 12:55 |
| Bala | ifuzo:installed wine direct x ? | 12:55 |
| onexused | Ravahan: You don't need to uninstall wine if you jsut want to get rid of winetricks, the settings, the things you installed with it. | 12:55 |
| iFuzo | No. Just go to terminal and type in "apt-get install wine" | 12:56 |
| iFuzo | Bala: Above and less the quotes | 12:56 |
| Ravahan | iFuzo: I do have Wine, but its giving me installer hangups. | 12:56 |
| Ravahan | Bala: Yes, via WineTricks | 12:57 |
| Ravahan | frogzoo1: what's the dpkg command do? | 12:57 |
| Bala | ravahan: hmmm ok | 12:57 |
| ShrimP | so what all are we aload to talk about here? | 12:58 |

| smellynoser | I want to run ssh from python and have the input/output work correctly. How would I do that? so, the python gets run, runs SSH, then my input goes to SSH? | 12:58 |

| grawity | ShrimP: Do you really need one? | 12:59 |
| onexused | Ravahan: I really have no idea if winetricks is causing the problem you're having installing FFXI. | 12:59 |
| Slart | ShrimP: sure there are.. they are hiding most of the time though | 12:59 |
| smellynoser | Slart: Hmm, I was supposed to be in python :P | 12:59 |

| Slart | ShrimP: what was the question? | 13:00 |
| Ravahan | iFuzo: and honestly I'm not sure what all I've tried, but anything that loads the installer shield won't work | 13:00 |
| ShrimP | so what all are we aload to talk about here? | 13:00 |
| iFuzo | Ravahan: Which is correct. | 13:00 |
| Slart | ShrimP: ubuntu end user support | 13:00 |
| Slart | ShrimP: there is #ubuntu-offtopic for everything else | 13:00 |

| ShrimP | wre does it say that? | 13:01 |
| ShrimP | were does it say that? | 13:01 |

| Ravahan | iFuzo: I do have winetricks, but the Runtime 2k installation won't finish because it hangs up in stupid installer shield | 13:02 |

| Halabund | When quickly alt-tabbing between two windows, the whole-screen flash (whole-screen fading for a moment) can be quite annoying. It would be better if the window switcher would (and screen dimming) appear only if alt-tab has been held down for some time, say half a second. Is this possible? | 13:21 |

| pozic | Or is it just fdisk + mkfs? | 13:25 |
| grawity | pozic: gparted + ntfsprogs | 13:25 |
| onexused | jrib: Is there a reason not to use it for security updates, that I couldn't use it for that, too? Downloading packages from the default servers is way too slow. | 13:26 |
| glitsj16 | Halabund: you might check the settings for the "Application Switcher" in compiz through ccsm | 13:26 |
| === Cripps is now known as eurythmia | ||
| Halabund | glitsj16: thanks, I'll take a look :) | 13:26 |
| cocontmi | pozic: try gparted a gui for partition editor | 13:27 |
| jrib | onexused: there's some lag time with mirrors, so if you want the security updates available as soon as possible you should use the main security server. Otherwise if you want to use a mirror for security, go ahead. I'm not sure all mirrors carry it though | 13:27 |
| haanuj | how to change duplicate source list | 13:27 |

| xleo | hey guys, just wanted to ask, whats the best way to make a backup of an install and restore back to it just incase i screw things up | 13:29 |
| Titan8990_ | !best | xleo | 13:29 |
| pozic | Heh, I read 4 hours. That's so ridiculous :) | 13:29 |
| xleo | !best | 13:29 |
| Titan8990_ | the bots not online | 13:29 |
| dsga | hello my video card with ubuntu 9.04 64 bit works in 2D can you helop me to improve it? | 13:30 |
| ShrimP | beat not | 13:30 |
| Titan8990_ | xleo, no best but depending on what you are making the backup to, you can use gparted for a partition image | 13:30 |
| onexused | ubottu says: "There is no best... matter of opinion... etc" | 13:30 |
| Titan8990_ | xleo, or tar for a file backup | 13:30 |
| Titan8990_ | xleo, or rsync for a incremental backup (only to other unix filesytems) | 13:30 |
| h4f2 | hi all. how do I #include <windows.h> and build ? | 13:31 |
| xleo | well i installed ubuntu on a pc I dont use, so I dont really need anything on it or on that install, just need to have something to restore back to once i mess things up thats all | 13:31 |
| xleo | instead of reinstalling the whole thing again | 13:31 |
| Slart | pozic: 4 hours sounds a bit on the long side, yes.. but I guess it might depend on the disc.. and on the computer | 13:31 |
| pozic | grawity: In the menu ntfs is greyed out in gparted. Do I need something? | 13:31 |
| glitsj16 | xleo: remastersys is a nice tool to make a live cd copy of your present system state | 13:31 |
| sash_ | xleo: or you write an image of your partition with dd | 13:32 |
| h4f2 | hi all. how do I #include <windows.h> and build ? | 13:32 |
| h4f2 | in mono | 13:32 |
| xleo | the problem the only HD i had was a 500gb one, didnt partition dont think an image is a good idea in my case | 13:32 |
| grawity | pozic: did you install ntfsprogs? | 13:32 |
| pozic | grawity: doing so now. | 13:33 |
| sash_ | xleo: well, that's true ^^ | 13:33 |
| pozic | grawity: sorry for asking. | 13:33 |
| Pici | h4f2: This is out of scope for this channel, try ##Mono | 13:33 |
| onexused | xleo: There's also the command line tool, dar, for backups. That's what I use.. when I remember. | 13:33 |
| ShrimP | that apply not any ?, right? | 13:33 |
| xleo | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35087 <-= i saw this post though, just wanted to confirm if its going to back up just the files that are installed not the whole image | 13:33 |
| xleo | or isnt there a simpler one click way to do it | 13:34 |
| xxx_ | helo | 13:34 |

| Iron_Chef | how can I get jaunty into init 3? | 13:49 |
| glitsj16 | MichalPenka: hi, what MTA are you using? postfix [http://www.davidgrant.ca/ssmtp_vs_postfix_no_contest] or ssmtp [http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/10/21/sending-email-from-your-system-with-ssmtp/] have those options ... if you go the ssmtp route, you can set the default destination for cron reports in /etc/crontab --> MAILTO="xxx@gmail.com" | 13:49 |
| Slart | !runlevels | 13:49 |
| ubottu | In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 13:49 |
| www2 | hi all | 13:49 |
| Iron_Chef | Slart: ok... | 13:49 |
| www2 | suport ubuntu the dell SAS6iR raid controler | 13:50 |
| Iron_Chef | Slart: I want to install nvidia drivers, their script requires no X running... | 13:50 |
| MichalPenka | glitsj16: Now it's exim but I can reinstall | 13:50 |
| MichalPenka | however not sure how to configure postfix | 13:50 |
| Slart | Iron_Chef: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop will kill X and let you install the drivers | 13:50 |
| Dextorion | Iron_Chef /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 13:50 |
| Iron_Chef | ah thanks ppl | 13:50 |
| Dextorion | Slart beat me to it :p | 13:51 |
| Slart | Iron_Chef: when you're done you just start it again with "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" but I have a vague memory of it starting automatically | 13:51 |
| glitsj16 | MichalPenka: instructions for postfix are on the first link in my previous post | 13:51 |
| xleo | sash_: is it a good idea give grsync a usb drive destination? | 13:51 |
| portablejim | The problem comes about by the line "127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost" being added to /etc/hosts on bootup (strangely the first logon input of the terminal login on the tty shows the correct hostname, but on logon (or even failed logon) it changes back. | 13:51 |
| MichalPenka | glitsj16: yes, thanks, I will check it ;) | 13:51 |
| Iron_Chef | wow that's a lo-res terminal!!! | 13:51 |
| sash_ | xleo: depends on how much data you want to backup | 13:51 |
| Slart | Iron_Chef: you can make it a little better if you add a vga= switch in grub | 13:52 |
| xleo | i just have a fresh install, shouldent be much right | 13:52 |
| Iron_Chef | ah | 13:52 |
| Iron_Chef | :-) | 13:52 |
| Slart | Iron_Chef: but you're still limited to VESA resolutions.. I think 1024x768 is max | 13:52 |
| xleo | im putting source as // | 13:52 |
| glitsj16 | MichalPenka: ssmtp setup is a breeze compared to postfix if you don't need a fullblown MTA, just my 2 cents | 13:52 |

| AceKing | Can someone help me to setup a remote desktop? I tried opening "Remote Desktop" and checking "Allow other users to view your desktop" It gives me the local IP settings, but I can't get in. BTW, I am trying to get in from within my local network. | 13:53 |
| sash_ | xleo: rsync is afaik for data-backup | 13:53 |
| Iron_Chef | Slart: should be ok, this box has enough juice to live in X | 13:53 |
| JenniferB | silverraindog: should there not be a ubuntu-desktop minimal ? | 13:53 |
| xleo | i dont need any data, im just trying to get a copy of my fresh install so i can roll back into it quickly rather than reinstall | 13:54 |
| Evet | u need update logs? | 13:54 |
| Iron_Chef | /etc/init.d/gdm start didn't work - i'm being lazy and rebooting | 13:55 |

| Pidgin_ | bastidrazor: thank you ,but this command will remove all of my necessary packages as well. it's a problem to run this command | 14:18 |
| bastidrazor | Pidgin_, that would get rid of kde packages. if you still use some of kde apps then yes it would be an issue. | 14:20 |
| Pidgin_ | bastidrazor: no, this command removes all packages | 14:20 |
| bastidrazor | Pidgin_, kde related. | 14:21 |

| Stargaze | also: wine-doors update freezes | 14:47 |
| Samm | strange. @Stargaze from what I'm reading, unless you do use Wine-doors, you have to copy over a previous installation of Dreamweaver from a Windows partition. Do you have windows installed in your house? you could use that and wine to get it working. Also, you can't get any apps from within Wine-doors atm (news @ wine-doors website) | 14:49 |
| Samm | @stargaze actually you could just install the packages manually but there's plenty. The easiest way is to do it from Wine-doors, for the repo | 14:50 |

| twig11 | Please read this and see if you can assist me with what I think is a simple question. I installed Jaunty a few days ago, and on the advice of someone in this room, set up the partitions so that /home was on its own partition, /dev/sda6. I was told that if I ever wanted to reinstall, I could do so without having to back up my home directory and reimport. Now I'm ready to reinstall and I need to know what to do when I get to the p | 15:04 |
| richardcavell | twig11: you got cut off there | 15:05 |
| twig11 | richardcavell: where? | 15:05 |
| richardcavell | twig11: but are you installing from the live CD? If so, then just mount the sixth partition in step 5 of 7 | 15:05 |
| twig11 | Now I'm ready to reinstall and I need to know what to do when I get to the partitioning stage of the graphical installer, in order to reinstall the operating system but keep the same /home directory with all its data intact. | 15:05 |
| richardcavell | twig11: In step 5 of 7 of installation from the live CD, mount sda6 as /home | 15:05 |

| oDesk | any driver for this modem yet ?? "0x11c11040" [Agere] .. i tried many tutorial non of them get my modem to work | 15:06 |
| richardcavell | twig11: or if you want to be extremely careful, ignore the sixth partition during installation and mount it later | 15:06 |
| twig11 | richardcavell: is there a significant risk not doing it that way? | 15:07 |
| richardcavell | twig11: not as long as you set everything correctly :) | 15:07 |
| twig11 | richardcavell: okay, I'm booting from the live cd now... | 15:07 |
| richardcavell | twig11: be careful that sda6 is not set to be formatted. Step 5 of 7 is the crucial one | 15:07 |

| Samm | @emery and probably does. | 15:21 |
| twig11 | richardcavell: okay, and sda1 should be marked to be formatted, right? | 15:21 |
| Samm | @emery Booot Camp, and if all fails, just partition back to normal. | 15:22 |
| deany | DBAlex, thats why I use soundkonverter, to keep the tags... it uses lame tho and lame doesnt support tags, yet soundkonverter keeps them, wish I knew how | 15:22 |

| richardcavell | twig11: mount /home as the last task. Could take you an hour before you're ready to do that | 15:29 |

| weiersc | Hi, I have an interesting challenge. I am still scared of losing the windows restore partition on my acer laptop. Especially since I am still experimenting with ubuntu. So I bought myself an 8gb flash drive and today I used the 9.04 installation cd to install ubuntu onto it. LOL now Grub seems to be on my flash drive. When I try to boot the pc without the flash drive I get an error 21. Is there an easy way to fix it? | 15:34 |
| hocuspocus | yes | 15:34 |

| weiersc | Hi I have a situation where I asked ubuntu (on cd) to install itself to a flash drive hoping that it would create a live flash disk that I could use when needed. Installation went well and grub was installed. Now when I try to boot the laptop without the flash drive I get an error 21. What do I need to do to change/re-install/move grub so that it won't give an error and allow me to boot into windows on the hard drive? | 15:44 |

| rashed2020 | weiersc, Did you use a tutorial or did you just try it out? | 15:45 |

| frogzoo | weiersc: you've clobbered your mbr | 15:45 |
| ubuntunewbie | hi wanted to ask is it possible to install firefox 3.5 without overwriting firefox 3.0 ? | 15:46 |
| ikonia | Freidenker1: remove the file then and leave the .gnome2 and .gnome directories | 15:46 |
| rashed2020 | Just go to /boot/grub/menu.lst and uncomment the lines with Windows in them. Then change every reference of hd0 to hd1 | 15:46 |
| nick-raden | Pici ok brother! | 15:46 |
| weiersc | thanks frogzoo :-) I tried the unetbootin, but I must have done something wrong there :-) It would not work. So I saw something on google - "just install ubuntu to your flash :-) | 15:46 |
| Freidenker1 | Now to get back at my initial problem: I want to install Scala with the installer, the jar command just un"zip" everything in the folder. | 15:48 |
| Freidenker1 | I open the installer with Sun Java runtime, so I just need to know the name of that command and I should be able to start the installer from the terminal with sudo | 15:49 |

| ik00R | if anyone have the answer please query me cause imma go out for a while | 15:58 |
| TwoToneSpirit | ik00r: Do you mean that you want X to start with the same resolution every time? Does setting it through the GUI not work for you? | 15:58 |
| ik00R | it's startx on ubu 9.04 server i wanna change resolution in cause my little old monitor doesn't support default | 15:59 |
| ikonia | ik00R: set it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:59 |
| ik00R | ikonia: i dunno how, it just says default and stuff | 15:59 |
| TwoToneSpirit | ik00r: Well does system -=> preferences -=> display not do it for you? If not, you can set it by adding "Modes" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:59 |
| ik00R | TwoToneSpirit: ok | 16:00 |
| ikonia | ik00R: why are you not running the desktop version | 16:00 |
| ik00R | TwoToneSpirit: what to add? | 16:00 |

| === CTUser is now known as corado_catanni | ||

| ikonia | or home user hardware | 16:01 |
| Dr_willis | ik00R: theres 10000's of sites to read/learn about the various parts of linux. it all depends on what you wan tto learn first.. I suggest reading a few bash tutorials to begin with. | 16:02 |

| Dr_willis | ik00R: we are helping you.. You expect us to some how train yoyu to use bash? or what exactly? its very well documented. thats how you learn it. | 16:04 |
| ik00R | ikonia: why the just diss me cause i ask how to chage resolution on X on a server? | 16:04 |
| njovanov08 | i set up a network printer on my ubuntu 9.04 it was working fine for 2 months and now i get a message when printing printer not connected | 16:04 |
| ikonia | ik00R: I'm just advising you that the the desktop environment may be a better learning environment | 16:04 |
| ikonia | ik00R: I'm not moking you, everyone starts somewheree | 16:04 |
| ik00R | ikonia: i am on desktop | 16:05 |
| Maximo | ikonia: there should be some supported media files....lol..... | 16:05 |
| lightpriest | ik00R, what do you want to change? | 16:05 |
| ik00R | ikonia: im talking about abother computer | 16:05 |
| ikonia | ik00R: sorry, I though you said you where on a server and couldn't confiure X | 16:05 |
| Titan8990_ | ik00R, honestly... ubuntu desktop -> debian -> gentoo/arch is a good learning path | 16:05 |
| ikonia | ik00R: put a desktop install on that computer, | 16:05 |
| Dr_willis | I agree with ikonia - you are not going to 'learn' that much more by using a server install.. and may just end up frustrated. | 16:06 |
| uknow | could someone help me install a driver for my SIS mirage 3 | 16:06 |
| ik00R | lightpriest: resolution of gnome so i can start it on my server cause i have an old monitor that cannot handle default resolution | 16:06 |
| pepperjack | ik00R: its just biting off a lot at once. especially since you are probably not too experienced with like vi (text editors) and stuff in linux cli | 16:07 |
| njovanov08 | does anyone know any terminal commands for printer status? | 16:07 |
| Titan8990_ | ik00R, that should all be handled by HAL unless proprietary drivers are in use, otherwise, you have done something wrong outside of standard configuration | 16:07 |
| Titan8990_ | njovanov08, lpstat -o | 16:07 |
| ik00R | i can use vim pretty well | 16:07 |
| pepperjack | ik00R: this is an old crt monitor? | 16:08 |

| NETabuse | hey guys, how can i stream all the audio from my desktop over the network tomy laptop and use the laptop speakers ?? | 16:09 |
| NETabuse | both are jaunty | 16:10 |
| Dr_willis | NETabuse: thats supposed tobe a feature of 'pulse audio' but ive never done it befor. | 16:10 |
| Maximo | legend2440: no I need to play the station so I can hear it .... | 16:10 |
| Maximo | legend2440: can you help me please? | 16:10 |
| NETabuse | Dr_willis, this was what i was thinking, wondering if it's possible, rather than finding clever splitter cables and making a mess of wires, just stream the audio signal from pulse ont he desktop and have unified sound from both machines on the laptop :) | 16:11 |
| legend2440 | Maximo: you mean the button that says Escuchar en vivo? | 16:11 |
| Maximo | legend2440: si mano | 16:12 |
| Dr_willis | NETabuse: i recall that being touted as a new fancy feature of pulse.. but ive never seen it used. | 16:12 |
| NETabuse | Dr_willis, the idea is i get alerts with sound from pidgin / xmpp on the desktop, also play the odd video, and work for the most part on the laptop. | 16:12 |
| Maximo | legend2440: you speak spanish? | 16:12 |
| legend2440 | Maximo: no | 16:12 |
| thiebaude | Maximo, i think you need the wmv, codecs | 16:12 |
| NETabuse | Dr_willis, so i want to have audio from both through the one set of headphones. | 16:12 |
| Maximo | legend2440: did you read the pastebin? | 16:12 |
| thiebaude | i just tried the station | 16:12 |
| legend2440 | Maximo: no | 16:12 |
| ubuntunewbie | hi wanted to ask is it possible to install firefox 3.5 separately without overwriting firefox 3.0 ? | 16:13 |
| thiebaude | !medibuntu | 16:13 |
| ubottu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 16:13 |
| Maximo | thiebaude: do I get that one from repo? | 16:13 |
| legend2440 | Maximo: anyway it works for me using firefox 3.5 | 16:13 |
| pepperjack | ubuntunewbie: yes just download it form firefox website and then unpack the file somewhere and run | 16:13 |
| thiebaude | maxagaz, i got it through medibuntu on the net | 16:13 |
| mattano | im having trouble with a fresh install of mythbuntu and my audio. heres whats up, mythbuntu finds my on board card, play plays my file, alsamixer seems like it works, speakers are on, plug is in the right place.... no audio, am i missing something? | 16:13 |
| ubuntunewbie | pepperjack: how to run ? | 16:13 |
| ubuntunewbie | pepperjack: which icon i need to click to run ? | 16:13 |
| NETabuse | ubuntunewbie, when you install as suggested here in the channel today, you end up with both versions of firefox in your applications->internet menu | 16:13 |
| thiebaude | Maximo, and also www.help.ubuntu.com/community/RestirctedFormats | 16:14 |
| pepperjack | ubuntunewbie: after you unpack it youll have a firefox folder. inside that is a firefox executable. just double-click | 16:14 |
| Dr_willis | NETabuse: ive no idea how to set that up. or if it works that way. I just recall that supposed to be a feature.. | 16:14 |
| NETabuse | ubuntunewbie, firefox 3.5 is named shiritoko web browser in the menu, | 16:14 |
| pepperjack | ubuntunewbie: you can then make a shortcut to it and put it on your gnome-panel or whatever | 16:14 |
| NETabuse | Dr_willis, i'll let you nkow if i succeed :) | 16:14 |

| marqueed | hi - how do people with iphones deal with syncing? | 16:16 |
| Decon | hey.. I've got "syslogd 1.4.1#17ubuntu7: restart."... which is normal.. but sometimes it reboots my actual system :/ .. anyone know why ? | 16:16 |
| BingO | i have configured vsftpd fine and service is runing also fine.. | 16:16 |
| Maximo | thiebaude: you get that from repo ---> <thiebaude> Maximo, i think you need the wmv, codecs | 16:16 |
| legend2440 | Maximo: open firefox and in address bar type about:plugins and see if you have Windows Media Player Plug-in 10 (compatible; Totem) | 16:16 |
| thiebaude | Maximo, yes | 16:17 |
| BingO | when i do $ftp localhost and then enter user/pass which created by default methond then it sayd | 16:17 |
| marqueed | virtualbox running vista is one solution... i'm using that presently but it's not the best of all possible | 16:17 |
| Maximo | legend2440: okay | 16:17 |
| BingO | 500 Oops: cannot change directory /home/user | 16:17 |
| Maximo | thiebaude: thanks alot | 16:17 |
| BingO | login fail | 16:17 |
| NETabuse | ubuntunewbie, install the firefox-3.5 packages by running "sudo aptitude install firefox-3.5" in a terminal window, that will install the 3.5 browser in paralel with 3.1 | 16:17 |
| thiebaude | np | 16:17 |
| Maximo | brb | 16:17 |
| pepperjack | ubuntunewbie: so after downloading you should have a like firefox.tar.gz file correct? you open that up and inside is a firefox folder. you drag that firefox folder to the desktop to extract it. you then click on that folder and nautilus file manager opens and inside is a bunch of files one of which is just named 'firefox' that is the executable | 16:17 |
| BingO | what will be solution of this problem.. | 16:17 |
| thiebaude | Maximo, tell me if your station plays | 16:18 |
| NETabuse | ubuntunewbie, then in your applications->internet menu's you will have botht he firefox icon and a new icon called "shiritoko Web Browser" which is firefox 3.5, you can run both simultaniously | 16:18 |
| BingO | 500 Oops : cannot change directory /home/user | 16:18 |
| Maximo | ok | 16:18 |
| TwoToneSpirit | Bing0: why are you using vsftp instead of SSH? | 16:18 |
| pepperjack | ubuntunewbie: so /home/ubuntunewbiew/Desktop/firefox/firefox would be the command to launch | 16:18 |

| melchess | I have a problem, when I type emerald --replace, it sets up the theme just fine, but if I close the terminal at any point in time, the theme goes away and no titlebar can be seen. ?.? | 16:23 |
| Dr_willis | It pays to be concise, and verbose in referance to linux issues. | 16:23 |
| Dr_willis | melchess: dont use the CLOSE button.. use the 'exit' command. | 16:23 |
| BingO | lightpriest: what happend ? whats da issue | 16:23 |
| grawity | melchess: emerald runs in the terminal you started it from. | 16:23 |
| grawity | Dr_willis: Same thing. | 16:23 |
| lightpriest | melchess, Do alt+f2 and run emerald --replace from there | 16:23 |
| Dr_willis | melchess: emerals --replace &, then 'exit' | 16:23 |
| grawity | Dr_willis: Either use this: ( emerald --replace & ) | 16:24 |
| Dr_willis | melchess: get away from teh habbit of using the 'close' button to close out terminals. | 16:24 |
| grawity | Dr_willis: Or this: emerald --replace & disown | 16:24 |
| pepperjack | uknow: ls /etc/X11/ make sure you even have a file there. by default it no longer will exist | 16:24 |
| lightpriest | melchess, Also lookup the package compiz-fusion-icon | 16:24 |
| Dr_willis | even with the &, hitting the close button can force it to quit. best to use 'exit' command. | 16:24 |
| yigal | how do I change the status of all packages installed by automatically to manual? | 16:24 |
| Decon | ok grawity, u know how syslogd restarts everyday right ?... well sometimes when it restarts, my whole computer restarts :/ | 16:24 |

| Segaja | hi, i have a problem with nfs under ubuntu | 16:25 |
| baws | its a serious head scratcher | 16:25 |
| Dr_willis | grawity: no it does not. it depends on the programs from what ive seen. i have seen programs launched with & still get forced to 'exit' when you use the close button. and NOt the 'exit' command. | 16:25 |
| thiebaude | uknow, video Section: | 16:25 |
| Segaja | it is extremly slow | 16:25 |
| uknow__ | yeah the driver name | 16:25 |
| Titan8990_ | grawity, only the 2nd one will continue after the terminal is closed | 16:25 |
| uknow__ | i think | 16:25 |
| causasui | in ubuntu when I press alt-f2 to open the "Run Application" dialog, a list of installed programs shows up that autocompletes. How can I add my own entries to this list, complete with the program icon? | 16:25 |
| melchess | grawity: thank you that fixed it. :) | 16:25 |
| Dr_willis | grawity: if you want to get real old-skool use the 'nohup' command. :) | 16:25 |
| grawity | Titan8990_: The first one will, if you don't forget the brackets around it. | 16:25 |
| melchess | no, wait.. it didn't | 16:25 |
| grawity | Titan8990_: Double-fork trick or something. | 16:25 |
| uknow__ | they want me to change it to ......Driver "sis671" | 16:26 |
| melchess | closed the terminal and it still failed :\ | 16:26 |
| grawity | melchess: Which one did you use? | 16:26 |
| pepperjack | causasui: i dont know offhand. might /join #gnome they might tell you right away | 16:26 |
| Titan8990_ | grawity, oh, interesting | 16:26 |
| melchess | which command? | 16:26 |

| lightpriest | baws, go ahead | 16:26 |
| uknow__ | but i dont know if sis671 goess across from driver if it matters | 16:26 |

| grawity | melchess: Which command did you use? | 16:26 |

| jrib | baws: ##windows | 16:29 |
| pepperjack | Segaja: no should be very snappy. an alternative might be sshfs. it has advantage of being a lot more secure than nfs share | 16:29 |
| baws | perfect! | 16:29 |
| baws | is this irc server some sort of tech support server? | 16:29 |
| grawity | pepperjack: I prefer GNOME's SFTP support over sshfs | 16:29 |

| bastidrazor | mbeierl, you have a general and a background tab .. click the background tab | 16:37 |
| mbeierl | bastidrazor: the properties for the panel are fine, sorry - it's the applets that have a background that I do not want | 16:37 |
| insomen4o | newbie help: what was the command in bash, where, when I type something like "ifconfig" and I get the output to a file? I've tried ifconfig | touch file1 but didn't work | 16:38 |
| Pici | insomen4o: ifconfig > file1 | 16:38 |
| mbeierl | bastidrazor: ALL the applets share this patterned background, but the panel is transparent. I want to get rid of the pattern for the background but do not know how. | 16:38 |

| NEBAP | hey guys, I've installed the texlive package, but can't find any new installed software.. Must I install additional editor software? | 16:41 |
| bastidrazor | mbeierl, possibly dig around in configuring the theme to see if you can find something | 16:41 |
| mbeierl | bastidrazor: hee hee... tried that too :( Do you know how to get to the GTK settings - maybe that's where it got set? | 16:42 |
| aaronvarghese | I need guidence on remote desktop what you need and how you use it to conect to a windows machien | 16:42 |
| ghost | ehm... sry are here germans ? | 16:42 |
| jrib | NEBAP: well texlive just lets you run latex on a text file. Use your favorite editor. Maybe you wanted something like kile or winefish? | 16:42 |

| Maximo | legend2440: like this from my pc --->http://paste.ubuntu.com/224435/ | 16:43 |
| mbeierl | aaronvarghese: there's a program called rdesktop and it will connect you to a windows desktop | 16:43 |
| NEBAP | jrib: I didn't use any, which one do you recommend for a beginner? | 16:43 |
| NEBAP | ghost: yes, but I wouldn't be a big help .. | 16:43 |
| bastidrazor | mbeierl, gconf-editor possibly | 16:43 |
| uknow__ | do any one know any thing about installing vido drivers | 16:43 |
| jrib | NEBAP: I use vim for latex and don't know much about any of the others. Try winefish and kile and see if you like them. You can also just use gedit, it should have a latex plugin | 16:43 |
| pepperjack | aaronvarghese: rdesktop is actually pretty great i much prefer it to the windows app because you can easily specify geometry and adjust the screen size and stuff | 16:43 |
| NEBAP | jrib: k, thank you :) | 16:43 |

| nsahoo | hi .. I am trying to use vpn with jaunty. school provides cisco vpn. How do I make it work with ubuntu at home. I installed vpnc, thought that was needed. but, lost after that | 16:54 |
| Trolly | You must delete VPNC | 16:54 |
| eurythmia | thanasis, it is considered rude because, among other reasons, I was in "the zone" and xchat flashed with your message to me. Now I'm distracted and just lost tens of minutes of productivity. You had no reason to target me for the question, asking in the main room would have gotten you a sufficient result. | 16:55 |
| bo7amny | every time i run the command (gnome-terminal --command="read ok") it show a new terminal window and go a way very quick , how can i make it not go a way ? | 16:55 |

| twig11 | erUSUL: one thing that complicates it is that I had set up three user accounts in /home on the old installation. Will those users automatically be available now? | 19:07 |

| lifesengine | E: _cache->open() failed, please report. | 19:16 |
| lifesengine | any ideas? | 19:16 |
| twig11 | erUSUL: I understand. thanks a lot for all the help | 19:16 |
| eurythmia | Flannel, I actually meant to do it in #ubuntu-offtopic ... I hit the wrong tab. I also don't think it's really necessary to use !away factoid unless it becomes apparent that someone actually has the noisy away messages turned on (i.e. it happens all the time). A single instance of "/me is back from here" is far less noisy than a false hit. | 19:16 |
| RenagadeX | erUSUL, what now? | 19:16 |
| ubuntunewbie | timbojimbo : like at window XP , it auto hide icon from system tray | 19:16 |
| pepperjack | Xacarith: oh yeah in nvidia-settings you can do it also. i wouldnt think it would be a problem in 9.04 but i havent used nvidia in a while | 19:16 |
| Kassah | Flannel, I'd prefer to upgrade to the latest 9.04 | 19:16 |
| ubuntunewbie | timbojimbo : the small round arrow | 19:16 |
| RenagadeX | erUSUL, on the folder? | 19:16 |
| SnakePlisken | lifesengine. "No such directory" -> "cache" ... Create it | 19:17 |
| timc | Hey. Icopied 460gb of stuff from one drive to another. The transfer was restarted about 6 times. The number of files is identical, but the total size is not. How can I find the files that don't have the same size? i guess i have to use diff, but i'm unskilled. | 19:17 |
| erUSUL | RenagadeX: as i already said continue the dl with «wget -c urlofthefile» | 19:17 |
| unop | RenagadeX, assuming the file exists at /media/new/myfile and you want to mount it in the current directory (this is the directory firefox expects to find it). touch myfile; sudo mount --bind /media/new/myfile ./myfile | 19:17 |
| erUSUL | RenagadeX: the -c option makes wget continue the dl where it was left | 19:17 |
| lifesengine | SnakePlisken: now it says You have 1 broken package on your system! | 19:17 |
| lifesengine | Use the "Broken" filter to locate it. | 19:17 |
| callahad | SnakePlisken: I don't think you're quite getting my issue. Thank you for the help, though. | 19:17 |
| maneatingduck | Hi, I'm having problems with youtube, it won't fullscreen fully, screenshot here: http://folk.uio.no/andlia/youtube_screenshot.png | 19:17 |
| Flannel | Kassah: You'll have to upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04, then to 8.10 then to 9.04, but that's doable. | 19:17 |
| Xacarith | pepperjack I can't even use my one monitor. Anything I tell to open up on 1 opens on 0 The handling is worse than it was with 8.10 which drove me back to windows x.x | 19:17 |
| timbojimbo | ubuntunewbie: i don't know if you can do that or not. i am asuming your talking about the icons representing applications that are open. and not icons that open things | 19:17 |
| Samm | Kassah: Edit the sources.list. BRB, let me find the correct addresses. | 19:17 |
| Leoneof | hello? | 19:17 |
| SnakePlisken | lifesengine: mkdir -p /var/cache/apt | 19:18 |
| RenagadeX | erUSUL, doesnt need to know where I put the file? | 19:18 |
| Kassah | Flannel, cool... opening it up in vim now =) | 19:18 |
| maneatingduck | Have tried Compiz & metacity, different browsers, suspect flash plugin 10.0.0.22 is at fault | 19:18 |
| Samm | Kassah: (you could try that. | 19:18 |
| eurisko | I can't find out why while booting on my network i get the ip correctly through dhcp, but $HOSTNAME is (none). If i run dhclient manually it gets right bought ip and $HOSTNAME . This happened after upgrade to Jaunty. Someone have a clue? | 19:18 |
| SnakePlisken | lifesengine: I could be wrong but itll not hurt your computer. | 19:18 |
| ubuntunewbie | timbojimbo : yeh , something at the notification http://www.wintipz.com/XP/images/AutoHideTaskbar.JPG | 19:18 |
| erUSUL | RenagadeX: you are in the folder where the partial file is; are not you ? it will download to the current folder | 19:18 |
| Samm | Kassah: What version of ubuntu? (and the nick for it? [Jaunty, etc.) | 19:18 |
| ubuntunewbie | timbojimbo : hide inactive icon | 19:18 |
| lifesengine | SnakePlisken: what did that function do? | 19:19 |
| Kassah | Samm, don't know the number... but it's gutsy... | 19:19 |
| RenagadeX | erUSUL, navigate terminal to the folder? | 19:19 |
| nanotube | ubuntunewbie: ah, in that case... no, i'm not aware of anything like that for the gnome task bar. | 19:19 |
| eurisko | * "my network interface" | 19:19 |
| erUSUL | RenagadeX: yep | 19:19 |
| Samm | Kassah: Thanks, hold on... | 19:19 |
| SnakePlisken | callahad: Thats also about settings in the gnome chemas. | 19:19 |
| Kassah | Samm, 7.10 | 19:19 |
| Flannel | Kassah: For some reason, the 7.10 to 8.04 upgrade notes haven't been updated. So, use this as a guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades (as far as switching repos are concerned) and then once you've got working repos, use this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades | 19:19 |

| timbojimbo | ubuntunewbie: sorry i don't know how to do that | 19:19 |
| Mister-Toti | sera | 19:19 |
| Samm | Kassah: ^^Flannel's method easier, but longer. | 19:19 |
| SnakePlisken | lifesengine: Create a directory your apt could be requireing | 19:20 |
| Xacarith | pepperjack Thanks for trying I'll try dualhead but I doubt it will work | 19:20 |
| SnakePlisken | lifesengine: see if you get a different reply from apt now | 19:20 |
| Kassah | SAmm, k... figure I'll do this while I still have the KVM over IP hooked up | 19:21 |
| Kassah | Flannel, thanks | 19:21 |
| ubuntunewbie | nanotube , timbojimbo : oh... I though it implement on ubuntu.Now my icon is full and out of space and start getting disorder | 19:21 |

| Samm | ubuntunewbie: Can't help you there, maybe by reset the panel to default? | 19:24 |
| ubuntunewbie | nanotube , timbojimbo : anyway thanks for the help :) | 19:24 |
| Kassah | Flannel, hmm.. after converting to the old-releases... it says use the gui... is apt-get dist-upgrade sufficient? | 19:24 |

| SnakePlisken | tester-ubuntu: It sounds like a bug, send a screenshot to the author of the application when you have lined up all the filanes in it. Before you press apply or whatever. If you can, start it in a terminal and supply the author with any extra output it could provide. | 19:26 |

| madalin | samm: yes | 19:36 |
| RenagadeX | why does my terminal download speed suck? | 19:36 |

| alex___ | CopyWriter: Prob flash and java and libdvdcss etc =P | 19:59 |
| CopyWriter | i'm getting that | 19:59 |
| ascheel | The_ManU_212: it's not decompressing it, but it has to copy several gives from an external drive. Depending on the speed of the drive and the connection, there's your slowdown | 19:59 |
| Leoneof | ascheel , i tried to use Portable DVD, didn't show me the USB in the boot list x_x | 19:59 |

| CopyWriter | i'm going for compiz | 20:00 |

| ascheel | Leoneof: plug it in, go into the bios, look for boot order, ensure CD-ROM is ABOVE the hard drive in the list | 20:00 |
| CopyWriter | no haven't gotten that one | 20:00 |
| ascheel | then try booting from the Ubuntu boot CD | 20:00 |

| The_ManU_212 | ascheel thx for your help, btw when there occures an error with tar and -v option how will i be informed? | 20:03 |
| ascheel | The_ManU_212: -v means verbose. It will tell you if there's an error | 20:03 |
| alex___ | CopyWriter: And if you haven't already gotten them, you should get the proprietary drivers for your gfx card | 20:03 |
| The_ManU_212 | i made this package with tar cvfj and forgot echo $? when i got a new prompt | 20:03 |
| CopyWriter | yeah i'm seeing the nvidia thing in the hardware drivers, i'll do that after | 20:03 |
| alex___ | CopyWriter: Lets see... If you have problems with compiz lagging things you might want to get Compiz-switch... easy way to turn it on or off. | 20:04 |
| The_ManU_212 | since it took a long time and tar printed a lot of lines (every file) very fast i couldnt see it | 20:04 |

| SnakePlisken | numlockx doesnt turn off numlock that my silly Fedora10 thing feels like enabling all the time now. Any other tool for this job ? | 20:04 |

| lb__ | one more wget question... in case you are redirected when downloading a file, e. g. Firefox recognizes the new name whereas wget will save "http://example.com/download.php?id=411" to "download.php@id=411" instead of "update-4.23.tar.gz". I have used "-O ..." before, but when working non-interactively and when the url cannot be parsed for a file name, I am stuck. | 21:05 |

| Dr_willis | squiggie: dont use x11vnc - use a vnc server like vnc4server, or tightvnc | 21:34 |
| cmelo | looking for good networking tools for Ubuntu Hi end stuff | 21:34 |
| Ravahan | erUSUL: I suppose what I'm getting at here; Would I be better off to just download all at once with that niftastic command you've provided or search for some 64 bit replacements for my current packages after the installation? | 21:34 |
| Dr_willis | squiggie: ive seen totrials on doing that witn vnc4server. you configure the xinetd to spawn the vnc server with the right options as needed | 21:35 |
| numa | vladimir: is it always 20 min? logs give any clue? | 21:35 |

| redrebel | when should I use LVM? | 21:36 |
| squiggie | Dr_willis: so just apt-get vnc4server and start it? That simple? | 21:36 |

| silidan1 | hi i get the following error, what does it mean? : EMU10K1_Audigy: probe of 0000:01:07.0 failed with error -12 | 21:36 |
| erUSUL | Ravahan: 64 bit replacements ?? the programs in both versions are the same maybe a few are missing in 64 bit for not being 64 bit clean and for obvious reasons the 64 bit repos do not have the 32 bit compatibility libs becouse the do not need it... but the rest are exactly the same | 21:36 |
| cmelo | great bunch of guys here | 21:36 |
| EeeBull1 | hello | 21:36 |
| Dr_willis | squiggie: thats how you can start it for a single user to connect to yes... but it does need configuration by editing the .vnc/xstartup script to tell it what window manager to run. | 21:36 |
| numa | vladimir: do you have additional memory in the machine? perhaps remove the 2nd stick, see if that helps? | 21:36 |
| cmelo | thanks for the help - not | 21:36 |

| revygttam | I was trying to setup swat and had to install openbsd-inetd, suddenly my vnc sessions are no longer working. This was working prior to this, does anyone know why this happend or how i can fix this? | 21:37 |
| vladimir | numa, no i have attached only optical device and eth. | 21:37 |
| Dr_willis | squiggie: i just ssh into the remote box and run vnc4server as needed for my user. No need for me to use gdm at all Unless you want several users to connect in an easier fashion | 21:37 |
| NOT_guru | alvinware i use freshclam | 21:37 |
| numa | silidan: that's a soundblaster err of some kind, does sound work at all perhaps just an err probing some port on the audigy | 21:38 |
| Vinceman | are all catholic people evil? | 21:38 |
| squiggie | Dr_willis: that is what I can do. I dont need desktop access that much but occasionally and am not opposed to ssh in and start it up. | 21:38 |
| dr3mro | ubtuntu is coooooooooooooooool | 21:38 |
| vladimir | numa, but friend told me it wasn't only my graphics stuck | 21:38 |
| vladimir | numa, but friend told me it wasn't only my graphics stuck | 21:38 |
| vladimir | numa, ssh also didnt work | 21:38 |
| dr3mro | i need to add hover to preview font to OOO 3.1 | 21:38 |
| numa | vladimir: it sure radiates some sort of hardware issue to me, fire up xp, and run a stress test see if it fails. | 21:38 |
| numa | vladimir: ssh? | 21:39 |
| Ravahan | erUSUL: Hmmm... I'm (obviously) new to Linux, but in Windows you'd need a program written for 64 bit processors in order to actually do 64 bit processing. Any 32 bit programs would still run, but at 32 bit. Is this not the case in Linux? | 21:39 |
| numa | vladimir: ssh crashies it? | 21:39 |
| Dr_willis | squiggie: then this is the easy way to do it.. the vncserver command will make a .vnc/xstartup file that you WILL need to edit . to run a proper window manager.. be sure to kill vnc properly also you cn have more then 1 vncserver instance going at the same time | 21:39 |
| xFlux | Ravahan: That is the case | 21:39 |
| silidan1 | numa: no my soundcard doesnt work when this error happens | 21:39 |
| xFlux | Ravahan: Majority of the codebase is ported 32bit code anyhow | 21:39 |
| erUSUL | Ravahan: the apps are recompiled of course but the names of the packages on both versions are the same | 21:39 |
| Ravahan | erUSUL: Aaaaah, I see | 21:40 |
| vladimir | numa, no we were in the middle of some work over it when my pc stuck. it wasnt working then either ( before it worked ). and before that ssh wasnt even working ( on previous crashes | 21:40 |
| numa | silidan1: start hunting audigy issues... hmm | 21:40 |
| Ravahan | xFlux: Cool, good to know. Half of this is still very arcane to me. | 21:40 |
| silidan1 | well i did i never found an error -12 thats why i asl | 21:40 |
| squiggie | Dr_willis: Ok, this is odd. I installed that and winvnc to it from my xp client and I get a vnc windows with a bash not an actual gdm display? | 21:40 |
| Guest70992 | virtualbox audio help...please | 21:40 |
| silidan1 | ask | 21:40 |
| numa | vladimir: just remove the ssh package and reinstall, shoudl fix | 21:40 |
| silidan1 | i mean what does error -12 mean when probinga device? | 21:40 |
| fosa | if i have smbclient //<hostname>/<sharename> -U <username> but I don't know what the sharename is.. what do i do to see the available dirs are? | 21:41 |
| Dr_willis | squiggie: as i said.. you NEED to edit the .vnc/xstartup file to run the WINDOW MANAGER you want to run. | 21:41 |
| Dr_willis | squiggie: this is for a single user.. so it does NOT run gdm. | 21:41 |
| numa | fosa: smbclient -L //hostname I believe | 21:41 |
| Dr_willis | squiggie: by default it runs 'twm' which is not even installed.. thus you get that window with a shell and thtas it | 21:42 |
| WonderfunkJones | Question: In order to enable my wireless network drivers I have to type in "modprobe ndiswrapper" every time I restart Ubuntu, how can I "auto-run" this command? | 21:42 |
| silidan1 | o never mind just found something | 21:42 |
| xlq | WonderfunkJones: you could put it in /etc/rc.local | 21:42 |
| xlq | WonderfunkJones: but there's probably a more suitable list of modules to load somewhere | 21:42 |
| Dr_willis | squiggie: use 'vncserver -kill :1' to close the running vncserver session properly edit xstartup, restart the server | 21:42 |
| fosa | numa, thanks | 21:42 |
| vladimir | numa, i installed ssh because it was getting stuck and friend tried to help | 21:43 |

| Dr_willis | metho: err.. all of them have thta feature from what ive seen.. Ubuntu has transmission installed by default - it works very well | 21:43 |
| numa | vladimir: i understand, however, if ssh quit working that would imply some sort of hdd corruption, whatever | 21:43 |
| diddy | Do we have any package version experts among us here? | 21:44 |

| numa | fosa: um... hold on a sec... | 21:44 |
| Dr_willis | squiggie: then this is the easy way to do it.. the vncserver command will make a .vnc/xstartup file that you WILL need to edit . to run a proper window manager.. be sure to kill vnc properly also you cn have more then 1 vncserver instance going at the same time | 21:44 |

| erUSUL | Vinceman: you can not... when a video driver (like one for a webcam or a tv capture card) loads v4l is used | 21:48 |
| Vinceman | but it doesn't work properly! | 21:49 |
| erUSUL | k3j0: redirect all traffic on por 80 to the other pc | 21:49 |

| erUSUL | !details | Vinceman | 21:49 |
| ubottu | Vinceman: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 21:49 |
| xlq | sere: yes there is, either install it directly onto the pendrive (but all the disk activity might wear out the drive quickly) or get unionfs to save state at the end of your session. | 21:49 |

| silidan1 | patrin: what exactly happens? | 21:51 |
| Vinceman | erUSUL do you think someone hacked my PC and did it to it? | 21:51 |
| patrin | silidan1 my fonts become distorted and over time they get pregressivly worse | 21:52 |
| Dr_willis | Vinceman: i would think it more likely its adobe flash having the issues.. not some haxxor | 21:53 |

| knoxville | I got 4 15K 147GB SCSI HDD's for an SQL server, what type of RAID do you suggest? | 21:54 |
| masterkoppa | nztal: I would recomend you search for old powerpc isos, if I'm not mistaken there used to be one for hardy | 21:55 |
| patrin | silidan1 i have an ati raedon 9200se graphics card doing dual monitor | 21:55 |
| numa | knoxville: depends on what controller card, mem of card, type of query, is it purely for SQL? so much hd power needed and no loadsharing? | 21:55 |
| deany | knoxville, thats a BIG sql server | 21:55 |
| nztal- | masterkoppa, thanks | 21:55 |
| squiggie | Dr_willis: looks like I can start the vncserver and connect now but I get a grey screen with a x mouse. I'm not exactly sure how to start a display in here and you said it couldn't start gdm right or did I misunderstand. | 21:55 |
| erUSUL | Vinceman: it could be just a bug in that particular app | 21:56 |
| diddy | How do Ubuntu package version names work? | 21:56 |
| knoxville | That server is purely for SQL, and I have a dell perc 4/SC | 21:56 |

| arne_ | Yo, is there anyway i can get my atheros wireless card to work in ubuntu 8.04? | 21:56 |
| numa | knoxville: you must be dealing with a vast amount of data for one sql rig, and assumadly storing data on this machie as well? why not break everything into seperate blades? | 21:56 |
| knoxville | Guest70992, RAID 10? | 21:56 |

| masterkoppa | arne_, find alternate kernel modules for 8.04's kernel version | 21:57 |
| alfaromeo | i have problem with burning dvd, i try to burn some .avi file but i cant... it says media is not formatted or unsupported. | 21:57 |

| knoxville | Dell PERC 4/SC Single Channel U320 | 21:57 |
| Guest70992 | knoxville: raid 10 should do the trick | 21:57 |
| erUSUL | Vinceman: contact the creator of the app | 21:57 |
| Tenkawa | any of you using the atl1e driver in 9.04? | 21:57 |
| arne_ | Where can i find other kernel modules? masterkoppa | 21:58 |
| knoxville | Guest70992 is that better than a RAID 5 with HOT swap | 21:58 |
| silidan1 | patrin: distorted= | 21:58 |
| numa | knoxville: it's faster | 21:58 |
| pepperjack | arne_: yes. best bet is to search ubuntuforums.org for your specific card. im sure someone has documented a howto | 21:58 |
| silidan1 | patrin: distorted? | 21:58 |
| knoxville | numa, I was good fault tolerance though also | 21:58 |
| numa | knoxville: raid5 is higher cpu load | 21:58 |

| mac9416 | Hello, I just installed Empathy but I can't figure out how to create an IRC account. It's not in the list of protocols. | 21:58 |
| silidan1 | patrin: only the fonts get distorted? | 21:58 |
| Guest70992 | knoxville: not sure...maybe 10 has hotswap capabilities too...would have to research | 21:58 |
| numa | knoxville: your controller hotswaps raid 10 | 21:59 |
| knoxville | Guest70992, i was thinking about using 3 drives for the raid 5, and the 1 drive hot swap spare | 21:59 |
| masterkoppa | arne_, im no expert but a quick google search might bring up some results | 21:59 |
| alfaromeo | i have problem with burning dvd, i try to burn some .avi file but i cant... it says media is not formatted or unsupported. | 21:59 |
| masterkoppa | arne_, ussually you can get them from the vendors website or from kernel.org | 22:00 |
| Guest70992 | knoxville: nah...just go for it stripe and mirror | 22:00 |
| Vinceman | how do you switch off your firewall? | 22:00 |
| knoxville | Guest70992, how many drives can fail before Im screwed with the 10? | 22:00 |
| numa | knoxville: you will get higher performance out of a raid 10 array. period. raid 5 is good, raid 10 is better | 22:00 |
| Slart | !ufw | Vinceman | 22:00 |
| ubottu | Vinceman: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 22:00 |
| arne_ | Thanks masterkoppa, ill try google some more :) | 22:00 |
| masterkoppa | arne_, though I would seriouslly suggest you try to upgrade your kernel version manually | 22:00 |
| mrwes | mac9416, you need to install telepathy-gnome to get IRC capabilities in Empathy | 22:00 |
| Tenkawa | !atl1e | 22:00 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about atl1e | 22:00 |
| lotu | Hey Guest70992 I just wanted to warn you from personal experince that RAID != backup | 22:00 |
| Slart | Vinceman: how did you switch it on? | 22:00 |
| Tenkawa | drats | 22:00 |
| mac9416 | mrwes, thanks a lot :-) | 22:01 |
| knoxville | I loose space with the 10 though? | 22:01 |
| Guest70992 | knoxville...again, more research is neccessary | 22:01 |
| numa | knoxville: the key is to use the raid as what it is, protection against a drive failing, it is not a substitute for daily or hourly backups | 22:01 |
| pepperjack | Vinceman: sudo iptables -L if it just says accept then you have no firewall rules setup | 22:01 |
| masterkoppa | arne_, it would be a long process but it would work alot better | 22:01 |
| numa | knoxville: and you lose space with raid 5 | 22:01 |
| knoxville | not as much space though | 22:01 |
| mrwes | mac9416, I believe once Karmic comes out this fall, Empathy will have IRC by default | 22:01 |
| masterkoppa | arne_, good luck with your problem | 22:01 |
| numa | knoxville: how much space do you need? | 22:01 |
| Guest70992 | lotu: yes? raid 10 backup what? | 22:01 |
| patdol | ophcrack url ftp | 22:01 |
| patrin | silidan1 yes only the fonts get distorted | 22:02 |
| sere | xlq: do you know how i boot persistant at startup....then i think i should be good | 22:02 |
| mac9416 | mrwes, that's certainly a good thing ;-) | 22:02 |
| silidan1 | patrin: does this happen for every font? | 22:02 |
| lotu | Right numa I didn't undestand that a year ago and had a nice RAID 5 setup but then when I accident dropped tables from my database I was somewhat upset | 22:02 |
| mrwes | mac9416, hrmm..I guess -- Pidgin is being replaced by Empathy in Karmic | 22:02 |
| kdc1956 | anyone like pussy | 22:02 |

| AJC_Z0 | To get on another network from the one given by DHCP using NetworkManager on eth1, I use "sudo ip addr add 10.0.0.1/24 dev eth1". What's the correct way to automate this? | 22:03 |
| lotu | RAID only provides high avaliblity so if a drive fails your server dosen't | 22:03 |
| th0r | alfaromeo: are you trying to burn a video dvd or a data dvd? | 22:03 |
| moltenbobcat | fwaokda: really? all I ever install on any of my ubuntu boxes is vlc and I can play dvds | 22:03 |
| mac9416 | mrwes, yeah, I've heard. Want to get a head start on everyone. | 22:03 |
| moltenbobcat | although it's been a whlie since I"ve tried to play a non burned dvd | 22:03 |

| lotu | Guest70992: If you can stand the risk of your server going down in the event of a hard drive failure, then you may be better off using RAID 0 and useing the extra drives as an incrmental back up so when someone drops all the tables in the database you can fix it. | 22:07 |
| silidan1 | patrin: did you manually install the ati drivers? | 22:07 |

| Slart | knoxville: yes | 22:10 |
| silidan1 | patrin: im off now to try and fix some of my wn problems :) | 22:10 |
| mac9416 | mrwes, well, I've haerd there are translation issues and other, so probably not in the next release. | 22:10 |
| patrin | silidan1 ok | 22:11 |
| erUSUL | lotu: but in raid 0 if a drive fails all data is lost... | 22:11 |
| mrwes | mac9416, yah, doesn't look like it would be ready from some of the threads I've read | 22:11 |
| Slart | knoxville: sorry.. I meant raid1+0, not raid0+1 | 22:12 |
| lotu | ErUSUL: that is why you set up automatic incrmental back ups. If a drive fails you restore form back up. But if you do something stupid raid is no help | 22:12 |
| th0r | alfaromeo: it looks like the dvd in the drive is not blank....that is my best guess from that printout..."(cannot write medium - incompatible format)" | 22:12 |
| jlaroche | having issues sharing files between two ubuntu 9.04 systems (both running GUFW). I have opened all samba ports (135, 137, 138, 139, 445)...

| alfaromeo | th0r, i bought 50 blank dvd and try 5 of them :S | 22:13 |
| mrwes | mac9416, I guess development on Rhythmbox stopped after 0.12 | 22:13 |
| th0r | alfaromeo: I wonder if what you have is a cd read/write but for dvd it is read only | 22:13 |
| mac9416 | mrwes, really? I hadn't heard that. Good reason to switch. | 22:13 |

| jlaroche | its definitely GUFW - when i turn it off on the laptop everything works.... but what is strange is I have the same exact GUFW settings as my desktop and sharing works on my desktop with GUFW on | 22:14 |

| jlaroche | why don't we just everone in here to "speak to their admins" | 22:41 |
| jlaroche | the ports are not working | 22:42 |
| ikonia | jlaroche: because not everyone has one, or | 22:42 |
| nellmathew | lol i'm guessing he doesn't get along with his net-admin | 22:42 |
| knoxville | Titan8990_, if disk space is not an issue? | 22:42 |
| verve | or maybe he's the admin | 22:42 |
| ikonia | jlaroche: have you spoke to the network admin to find out the correct ports ? | 22:42 |
| jlaroche | one machine is working with the appropriate ports allowed and another is not | 22:42 |
| BellinXFelon | how can i force delete something | 22:42 |

| knoxville | Titan8990_, and it is fault tolerant, so I won't loose data when 1 drive fails? | 22:43 |
| Titan8990_ | knoxville, no, and depending on what card you are using, you should be able to hot swap the drive without any downtime | 22:43 |

| Kingsy101 | I gave tried just going into System screen res and it only gives two options | 22:45 |
| Kingsy101 | 800x600 and 640x480 | 22:45 |
| spursncowboys | I am sending my mom a copy of Ubuntu for her four year old dell laptop. Any recommendations on which OS exactly to send her. | 22:45 |
| Titan8990_ | Kingsy101, use the correct driver for your card | 22:45 |
| Titan8990_ | Kingsy101, sounds like you are using vesa, the generic drivers | 22:46 |
| Kingsy101 | ah | 22:46 |
| Kingsy101 | damn... | 22:46 |
| Kingsy101 | I am not really sure of the make of the card.. | 22:46 |
| Kingsy101 | is there some way of detecting it ? | 22:46 |
| Titan8990_ | Kingsy101, sudo lscpi from the terminal | 22:46 |
| Kingsy101 | ok 1 sec | 22:46 |
| sam_ | whats up | 22:46 |
| Kingsy101 | Titan8990 - it says lscpi command not found | 22:47 |
| Titan8990_ | Kingsy101, thats because i spelled it wrong, lspci | 22:47 |
| phen75 | Titan8990_: run lspci | 22:47 |
| arand | Zlow: BellinXFelon that is somewhat odd... You could just hold down shift while pressing the delete button to remove it without going to trash. | 22:47 |
| motoh | I'm unable to mount PSX format CDs. | 22:48 |
| Zlow | I am unable to get past Busybox when installing 9.04. I'm running a GA-EX58-UD4P mobo, it doesn't seem to care which IDE config I set in BIOS. I've seen on the forums other people have used this mobo and got 9.04 working. Any advise? | 22:48 |
| ikonia | motoh: they are encyrpted aren't they ? | 22:48 |
| dAnon | I've got problem with black/dark themes, because they make adress bars/ text fields go black and the font is hard to see or invisible, anyone with such problems? | 22:48 |
| motoh | ikonia, no they aren't. | 22:48 |
| motoh | Root can mount them and does so automatically. | 22:48 |
| Kingsy101 | Titan8990 - check it out ----> http://pastie.org/555648 | 22:48 |
| ikonia | motoh: really, I thought they had copy encyption, | 22:48 |
| Kingsy101 | Titan8990 - any clue from that what driver I can install to improve this ? | 22:49 |
| motoh | ikonia - not PSX. | 22:49 |
| Titan8990_ | Kingsy101, honestly, i don't know anything about via cards | 22:49 |
| Kingsy101 | ah.. | 22:49 |
| ikonia | motoh: what device is PSX ? | 22:49 |
| ikonia | motoh: PS1/2/3 ? | 22:49 |
| VCoolio | dAnon: either they are bad themes or you're talking about firefox or openoffice; there are workarounds for those; or are the themes really not working? | 22:49 |
| motoh | ikonia PS1 | 22:49 |
| Kingsy101 | Titan8990 - what would you suggest ? I am pretty suck here | 22:50 |
| ikonia | motoh: I'm wrong then, I thought PS1 was encypted too | 22:50 |
| motoh | What's happening is that if I sudo nautilus to go exploring, it automagically mounts it, but I can't access it. | 22:50 |
| dAnon | VCoolio: some applications like tlen communicator and Opera browser are using black fonts and black fields, so it's hard to see anything | 22:51 |
| dAnon | after installing the theme | 22:51 |
| ikonia | motoh: just checking now, until you said I was pretty confident PS1 disks where encypted | 22:51 |
| VCoolio | dAnon: that's because they are not gtk applications; check google for workarounds; maybe the apps themselves have settings for themes? | 22:51 |
| motoh | ikonia - not in the least, and I'm able to play about in them just fine in a windows install, something is off with permissions, I think. | 22:52 |
| rob2k9 | my computer no longer recognizes my video driver --- can anyone help?? | 22:52 |
| Kingsy101 | anyone here had any experience with installing drivers for a via graphics card ? or at least I think thats what it is | 22:52 |
| motoh | ikonia - like I said, if I do anything root related for a second, it mounts it, but I have no permissions. | 22:52 |
| dAnon | what themes should I search for if I am using 8.10 Ubuntu | 22:52 |
| ikonia | motoh: mounting does not mean it's not encypted | 22:52 |
| ikonia | motoh: you can mount encypted disks but you can't browse them | 22:53 |
| motoh | ikonia - I promise it's not encrypted. >.> | 22:53 |
| Zlow | Where can I find a guide to installing 9.04, or how to troubleshoot failed installs? | 22:53 |
| rob2k9 | only 1300 people in the room --- this is going to work well..... | 22:53 |
| ikonia | motoh: what file system is on them ? | 22:53 |
| motoh | They haven't done any encryption on PSX games before. | 22:53 |
| phen75 | Kingsy101: only vesa driver will work for sis | 22:53 |
| motoh | isofs | 22:53 |
| VCoolio | dAnon: just gtk2 themes, will do for alle newer Ubuntu versions; metacity or emerald (beryl) for window decoration (title bars); gdm for login window; | 22:54 |

| guestadmin | arand: I have that too, but for me it just adds a separation bar between icons on the left and the right | 23:13 |
| Islington | hello is there a kde 4.3 version of stasks plasmoid? | 23:13 |
| trothigar | test34, alternately right click on an example of a video file you have and select properties | 23:13 |
| test34 | trothigar: You can do anything from the command line, I just want to know what file to edit | 23:13 |
| vr_mex | i screwd up and need to re-generate the system wide rsa and dsa keys again, I can see they are at /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key... how can i do it? | 23:13 |
| asas | if I can see the light on the mobo on saying power is going to the mobo, but the computer won't turn on, what could be the problem? I've had this computer running for a year and came in this morning to find it off.. | 23:13 |
| Zlow | Titan8990 and Trothigar: the integrity check on this new disk is almost done. | 23:13 |
| test34 | trothigar: I dont have X access to that computer | 23:13 |
| Leoneof` | Titan8990, ok, i must restart my Pc in case to use Ubuntu, because i've dual boot :) | 23:13 |
| Zlow | Trothigar no errors found. | 23:13 |
| Titan8990 | Zlow, i have told you what the deal is, no need to reply back to me | 23:14 |
| droolpal | how can I log into the cli vs gdm so I can restore my xorg.conf? | 23:14 |
| UseTheForce | sheesh i'm in trouble... i figured it would be a good idea to install the newest ATI drivers on my laptop... but i never should have done that... now when i boot i get a black screen with all mysterious looking chars. can someone point me in the right direction please? | 23:14 |
| tonii | asas: there are usualy diods on the MB to alert you where it "halts" | 23:14 |
| Jimmio | Hello all, how can I make the gnome panels a window? | 23:14 |
| trothigar | Zlow, the simplest thing might be to try the alternate install cd. | 23:14 |
| tonii | asas: ie, bios, ram, gfx etc. | 23:14 |
| Teknoenie | UseTheForce: you need to upgrade the BIOS on your machine | 23:14 |
| Moose | Well, I joined here and it worked... | 23:14 |
| Moose | So confusing. | 23:14 |
| Moose | Thanks :P | 23:14 |
| asas | tonii, I press the on button and nothing happens. No fans start or anything. That's what is weirding me out. | 23:14 |
| Teknoenie | it most certainly is that | 23:14 |
| trothigar | test34, but someone does? | 23:14 |
| Leoneof` | Titan8990, the chipset of wireless is Atheros, is that useful info? | 23:15 |
| arand | guestadmin: hmm, I get that behaviour is there is already one "notification area"-applet available. | 23:15 |
| Teknoenie | I have endless amounts of problems with ATI and GNU/Linux | 23:15 |
| tonii | asas: well, that is never good ;) but the MB lights up? | 23:15 |
| test34 | trothigar: someone somewhere probably does but I don' | 23:15 |
| test34 | t | 23:15 |
| Titan8990 | Leoneof`, yes, perfect | 23:15 |
| asas | tonii, yah, that is what confuses me. I figured if the greenlight is on the mobo should atleast be at the point where it can start the fans. | 23:15 |
| UseTheForce | •Teknoenie• oh... is there any way i can reverse it back to the old drivers? | 23:15 |
| Titan8990 | Leoneof`, does: ifconfig -a show a wlan0 or ath0 interface? | 23:16 |
| tonii | asas: not if the mobo is broken. read the manual for the mobo to troubleshoot if there might be something else wrong though. | 23:16 |
| Teknoenie | UseTheForce: can you view a virtual terminal ? CTRL+ALT+F1 | 23:16 |
| Zlow | Trothigar: the new disk worked, I'm installing now. Thank you. | 23:16 |
| Leoneof` | Titan8990, sorry i don't know enough about terminal :/ | 23:16 |
| Titan8990 | Leoneof`, you do have compatible hardware, in fact, the best... you just through me off with the card name instead of chipset name | 23:16 |
| Teknoenie | or is it garbled | 23:16 |
| Titan8990 | Leoneof`, open up the terminal | 23:16 |
| tonii | asas: as I said, there are usually diods to notify you where in the boot process the mobo iss. | 23:16 |
| trothigar | Zlow, new disk? | 23:16 |
| Titan8990 | Leoneof`, type: ifconfig -a | 23:17 |
| vr_mex | i screwd up and need to re-generate the system wide rsa and dsa keys again, I can see they are at /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key... how can i do it? | 23:17 |
| UseTheForce | •Teknoenie• no i can't... but i can boot to recovery mode | 23:17 |
| Titan8990 | !pastebin | Leoneof` | 23:17 |

| javimansilla | does anyone know how to install python2.3 on jaunty? | 23:17 |
| Titan8990 | javimansilla, why in the would you want to do that? | 23:17 |
| vr_mex | ikonia: but i dont want to do it a a user i want it for system wide so they get stored in /etc/ssh | 23:18 |
| pcbuilder97 | why would u want to do that it comes with v2.6 | 23:18 |
| guestadmin | arand: For some reason randomly the wireless internet cuts off, I can usually restore it perfect with sudo rmmod iwl3945 then suudo modprobe iwl3945, but sometimes my icon goes away and I cant restore it, or switch networks or disconnect without reboot | 23:18 |
| Leoneof` | Titan8990, ok , i will do now, just restart the pc, see you later ^_^ | 23:18 |
| Teknoenie | boot recovery && chroot /target /bin/bash && aptitude -y purge the fglrx driver && rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 23:18 |
| Titan8990 | Leoneof`, plug in and get on irc from linux | 23:18 |
| Titan8990 | Leoneof`, be tons easier for you to get help | 23:18 |
| javimansilla | Titan8990: I have to. Support for old zopes | 23:18 |
| Leoneof` | ^_^ | 23:18 |
| swoody | anyone have any idea why my window decorations don't show up when I start up the computer?? It works fine on other accounts on my computer, but not on mine | 23:18 |
| Titan8990 | Teknoenie, you need to mount /dev and /proc when you chroot | 23:19 |
| UseTheForce | •Teknoenie• thanks a million for your help bro... i'm trying it out now | 23:19 |
| ikonia | vr_mex: ssh-keygen is still used | 23:19 |
| Teknoenie | Titan8990: recovery mode gives you the option to chroot and does that if you choose it | 23:19 |
| Titan8990 | swoody, they are user specific settings | 23:19 |
| r00tur | guyz sorry to ask, but... does pulseaudio come with ubuntu 9.04 by default, like in Mint7, or its just a Mint7 "defaulty"? | 23:19 |
| Teknoenie | UseTheForce: no probs | 23:19 |
| Titan8990 | Teknoenie, nice, wasn't aware | 23:19 |
| arand | guestadmin: I'm afraid I don't have an expalnation for that, maybe a serch on launchpad/forums for your card and problems would give some tips? | 23:19 |
| guestadmin | swoody: maybe you have to specifically apply each setting in each account | 23:19 |
| vr_mex | ikonia: allright so then can you please give me the options i should type? | 23:20 |
| knoxville | I'm having issues setting up my RAID 10, do I first have to make 2 raid 1s? | 23:20 |
| swoody | Titan8990: how can I make them appear as usual again? | 23:20 |
| Titan8990 | swoody, you could try copying the hidden settings folder from one user to the other | 23:20 |
| swoody | guestadmin: well they were working fine until just recently, and I don't know what would have changed to cause it | 23:20 |
| guestadmin | arand: true, (already at it ;) ) Multitasking as we speak :p | 23:20 |
| Titan8990 | swoody, although, I don't see much of a point to a single person using multiple user accounts | 23:20 |
| Teknoenie | swoody: if you don't mind reconfiguring all of your GNOME apps you can rm -rf .g* | 23:20 |
| Teknoenie | if you're using KDE them rm -rf .kde | 23:20 |
| guestadmin | swoody, was it around any system updates? | 23:20 |
| swoody | Titan8990: no, I mean that my mom's account and my fiancee's account work, but not mine | 23:20 |
| test34 | trothigar: I think I found it: sudo pico /etc/gnome/defaults.list | 23:21 |
| konseca | may i use a command on live cd as root? | 23:21 |
| swoody | guestadmin: I'm not sure, I never restart my computer that often (once a month or so) so I can't really track down which one would have done it | 23:21 |
| Teknoenie | swoody: if you go to appearance and select a different theme does everything go back to normal? | 23:21 |
| funcky1 | what command do you use to preform operations on a directory? | 23:21 |
| Titan8990 | swoody, alright... this is potentially RISKY: sudo cp -a /home/mom'shome/.* /home/myhome/ | 23:21 |
| Titan8990 | swoody, try at your own risk | 23:22 |
| mr_steve | konseca: sure, use sudo. If you really really need an actual root shell, use sudo -i | 23:22 |
| swoody | Teknoenie: no, but if I change the 'Visual Effects' to another level, they come back | 23:22 |
| Teknoenie | swoody: what graphics card? | 23:22 |
| swoody | Titan8990: well I really don't want to delete my entire home and all my settings | 23:22 |
| cwraig^work | hi i am looking for backup software to backup my svn server that i can schedule via cron does anyone have any advice? | 23:22 |
| guestadmin | swoody: that would be my only guess, you are unable to restore settings the way they were on that account when you configured it the first time? | 23:22 |
| funcky1 | is it dir? | 23:22 |
| swoody | Teknoenie: integrated laptop graphics. Intel 945GM if I remember correctly | 23:22 |
| trothigar | cwraig^work, do you need a gui? | 23:23 |
| Teknoenie | the problem is composite manager | 23:23 |
| cwraig^work | trothigar: no | 23:23 |
| Teknoenie | what level do you have effects set at? | 23:23 |
| r00tur | guyz sorry to ask again, but... does pulseaudio come with ubuntu 9.04 by default, like in Mint7, or its just a Mint7 "defaulty"? (its because i dont remember, as skype worked fine in ubuntu 9.04 I'm thinking that this could be a pulse audio issue) | 23:23 |
| swoody | Teknoenie: off, but when I change them to 'Normal' and then back off, it works fine | 23:23 |
| Teknoenie | swoody: you can use lspci |grep -i vga to find out specifically | 23:23 |
| trothigar | cwraig^work, have a look at rdiff-backup and rsync | 23:23 |
| mr_steve | r00tur: pulseaudio is, unfortunately, included by default | 23:24 |
| Teknoenie | does the widget set require composite to work? | 23:24 |
| derekS | hey all. I am using procmail to filter email, and I have a catch-all address setup. Does anyone have a recipe for procmail that will take all all mails that weren't to my email and add something like "[CATCH-ALL]" "[CATCH-ALL][email@mydomain.com]" to the subject? | 23:24 |
| r00tur | thanks :D | 23:24 |
| swoody | Teknoenie: yeah, 945GM | 23:24 |
| arand | r00tur: yes pulse is default since... hardy I think | 23:24 |
| Cige | Hey, I have been having a problem with pidgin, it refuses to connect with my gchat account, although all of my other accounts work fine. Is this common? | 23:24 |
| jazbo | im having a problem installing photoshop cs4. | 23:24 |
| jazbo | it hangs at the splash screen when I try to load it | 23:24 |
| jazbo | ive seen something about a workaround, but i don't know what it is... | 23:24 |
| r00tur | ohhh, thanks guys | 23:24 |
| trothigar | cwraig^work, if you need incremental backup then go with rdiff-backup | 23:24 |
| funcky1 | what command do you use to preform operations on a directory? | 23:24 |
| pcbuilder97 | ubuntu dosent like to run on a octa core system | 23:24 |

| guestadmin | swoody : I really have to go at the momnet, tho its seems a lot of helpful individuals out there are brainstorming with you. I wish I could have been more helpful | 23:25 |
| trothigar | funcky1, what operations | 23:25 |
| === ubuntu is now known as konraddo | ||

| arand | Kingsy101: is the video drivers in alright? | 23:28 |
| antigen | hey ikonia, i don't follow what you meant on how i would mount windows from the livedvd. and what the purpose or goal of that was. i sent you a pm | 23:28 |
| Kingsy101 | arand - yea | 23:28 |
| jazbo | ive tried that, but nobody is there... | 23:28 |
| jrib | jazbo: no one is where? | 23:29 |
| jazbo | the wine channel | 23:29 |
| jrib | jazbo: didn't I give you a link to the appdb which contains instructions for installing apps in wine? | 23:29 |

| chris__ | how do i set it so that i upgrade my distro through update manager | 23:31 |
| jrib | !helpme | konraddo | 23:31 |
| ubottu | konraddo: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 23:31 |

| UseTheForce | •Teknoenie• sorry if it's a stupid question... but i tried to figure out the cmds u gave me. i didn't really install the ati driver as a package using apt.. but i downloaded the .run from ati's homepage. is there a simmilar purge command for such packages? | 23:33 |

I can access both XP and Ubuntu 9.04 via the LiveDVD when I select : boot from 1st hard disk and then selecting either option from GRUB. I just can't do this without the LiveDVD when GRUB appears - I get that error message. | 23:51 |
| Teknoenie | UseTheForce: no probs | 23:51 |
| Pici | Alvinware: I didn't ask about it. | 23:51 |
| rootlinuxusr | the point of running a anti-virus is to protect your computer from passing on viruses. | 23:51 |
| Alvinware | dsdeiz, Yes, take a lot in Clamav website. | 23:52 |
| rootlinuxusr | But there are a few known virus' ....very rare. | 23:52 |
| guestadmin | nice mr_steve, problem solved :) | 23:52 |

| sketchyd_ | hi - my apt-get is failing on installing mysql | 23:52 |
| arand | dsdeiz: not to a noticable extent you might still want to scan your files for virus if you share them with windows though... | 23:52 |
| sketchyd_ | i would like help removing and reinstalling | 23:52 |
| blognewb | Ademan: hi how do i know if the file created is empty? there were no prompt messages after hitting enter | 23:53 |

| delly | Alvinware: Nah, its just so much harder to make virus you know..... | 23:54 |
| delly | Alvinware: On Unix platforms | 23:54 |
| guestadmin | arand found the solution courtesy of mr_steve should you ever need it , opened the terminal and typed "nohup nm-applet", closed terminl, and it stayed right there ;) | 23:54 |
| DasEi | Kingsy101: is there anything wtitten in you /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? | 23:54 |
| Alvinware | delly, yeah, because of the root, and quick fix. | 23:55 |
| arand | dsdeiz: Virus for linux are yet (and some say ever) not really a concern. | 23:55 |
| Kingsy101 | DasEi - yea I made some additions which is when it went faulty | 23:55 |
| Alvinware | delly, u know some really smart guy can be bad too. | 23:55 |
| mr_steve | guestadmin: you'll still have to do something in System>Preferences>Startup Applications if you want it to be permanent | 23:55 |
| DasEi | Kingsy101: so back that file up, maybe paste it here, then run : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 23:56 |
| sketchyd_ | can anyone help me fix my mysql install? | 23:56 |
| delly | Alvinware: the is more to it that that.... For starts we can start with the fact that we are opensource. More users = more people who can take a glance at the sourcecode, it does not share the propitary problem. | 23:56 |
| arand | dsdeiz: but if linux acts as a server, or is providing files to windows in some way, you still might want to ensure that the files are virus-free... | 23:56 |
| guestadmin | mr_steve: Maybe, but It always works anyways on startup, it only dissappeas halfway through internet use | 23:56 |
| Akufen | sketchyd_ what errors are you getting? | 23:56 |
| mr_steve | guestadmin: ah, I see | 23:56 |
| pcbuilder97 | can anybody tell me how to clear out my logfile? | 23:57 |
| sketchyd_ | Akufen: when i remove - E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 23:57 |
| Cige | Hey, I have been having a problem with pidgin, it refuses to connect with my gchat account, although all of my other accounts work fine. Is this common? | 23:57 |
| DasEi | Kingsy101: nedd more help on that ? | 23:57 |
| DasEi | need* | 23:57 |
| arand | guestadmin: that is indeed a convenient command. | 23:57 |
| guestadmin | mr_steve, well, just in case , what should I know, should I ever face That problem as well | 23:57 |
| sketchyd_ | also, Akufen: invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed. | 23:57 |
| Grizmawe | pcbuilder97: from terminal run "cat /dev/null > logfile" | 23:57 |
| jchamm1 | DasEi: I am not a Gchat user, but I suspect you're doing something wrong. | 23:57 |
| Kingsy101 | DasEi - http://pastie.org/555725 | 23:57 |
| pcbuilder97 | thanx | 23:57 |
| Kingsy101 | that is what my xorg file looked like before I restarted | 23:57 |
| Ademan | blognewb: hey sorry, uh, if you type less <filename> it will say END right away, if it's not empty, the END will be after the contents of the file. (hit q to exit less) | 23:57 |
| Akufen | sketchyd_ did you try this: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/sub-process-usrbindpkg-returned-an-error-code-1-171107/ ? | 23:58 |
| DasEi | jchamm1: so ? | 23:58 |
| Alvinware | delly, if a server using linux, client using windows, will windows still get the windows virus? | 23:58 |
| sock | ubuntu sucks | 23:58 |
| Kingsy101 | DasEi - yea please I could do with a hand | 23:58 |
| mr_steve | guestadmin, if you have a look in System>Preferences>Startup Applications, you'll see what I mean. It's basically just a list of apps to start when you login to Gnome | 23:58 |
| jchamm1 | DasEi: Err, wrong person. That was aimed at Cige. | 23:58 |
| jchamm1 | DasEi: Sorry. ;) | 23:59 |

| delly | Alvinware: there are chances. And thats facts. Just because the Linux server is immune, does not mean it can spread another platforms virus. | 23:59 |
| blognewb | Ademan: thank you | 23:59 |
| DasEi | Kingsy101: open a terminal , sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg_backup | 23:59 |
| Grizmawe | Alvinware: if you mean sharing through samba as a windows share then any virus infected windows file will still have the virus when opened in windows | 23:59 |
| DasEi | jchamm1: np | 23:59 |
| delly | Alvinware: It will..... | 23:59 |
| snarkster | can any one answer a few samba questions? | 23:59 |
