| Lostinspace_46 | artillerytx which ones do you need? | 00:02 |
| mgmuscari | debclair: non-functional LED is likely not a software issue | 00:03 |
| mgmuscari | cold solder joint or something | 00:03 |

| mgmuscari | debclair: bad solder joints can work for a while then fail | 00:04 |
| Lostinspace_46 | Can't you just d/l them from you computers manufacturer? | 00:05 |
| debclair | nop, it works on windows | 00:05 |
| debclair | and it works at grub | 00:05 |
| mgmuscari | debclair: did you make any changes that coincide with the problem? | 00:05 |
| artillerytx | Lostinspace_46: Any idea where i can get that | 00:05 |
| debclair | it must be something involving I installed wimput which uses uinput | 00:05 |
| debclair | maybe that caused the error | 00:05 |
| murcherson | hi folks I have a 1gb memory stick that automatically gets mounted to /media/disk at boot, i have unmounted it then tried to remount but I am told that /media/disk doesnt exist (it doesnt).

| theholyduck | :P | 00:41 |
| steven| | lstarnes, It's just inefficient, then? Kinda like SSHing into yourself? | 00:41 |
| theholyduck | maybe even a function to install it if its not there | 00:41 |
| lstarnes | steven|: sudo -i is likely more secure as well | 00:41 |
| theholyduck | trakcyia, then just stick some new labels on them? | 00:42 |
| bastidrazor | theholyduck, i do have it installed too, i suppose my 'optional' assumptions was wrong. | 00:42 |

| snodinator | anyone know what the stats is of the char transfers from NS? | 00:42 |
| trakcyia | put simply, the i is there to stay, i think they did that to prevent international units posing as a different origin by key swapping | 00:42 |
| theholyduck | well whatever, i'll just tell them to dl ti | 00:42 |
| bastidrazor | theholyduck, true, you may be required to apt-get it in kubuntu. kubuntu and ubuntu are all the same under the hood | 00:43 |
| trakcyia | theolyduck i yeah.. that would be the first conclusion | 00:43 |
| plaguehiv | om jag tar bort allt utom Home partitionen när ajg installerar om ubunto, kommer allt som finns i typ Pictures och videos vara kvar då? | 00:43 |

| Sephr | could someone running 64bit ubuntu tell me if this testcase (that sets XML.prettyIndent to a negative value) crashes your computer? http://code.eligrey.com/testcases/firefox/negative_XML_prettyIndent.html | 00:53 |
| sebsebseb | crunge: ok and remember to md5sum the ISO | 00:53 |
| BlasenMich | need help with getting right video drivers for 9.0 | 00:53 |
| sebsebseb | BlasenMich: drivers for what? | 00:53 |
| crunge | an even more significant question... the tool in Ubuntu that creates a LiveCD on a USB key from a physical disk... does the source disk have to be Ubuntu? | 00:53 |

| eggenz7 | i have an intrepid install on a dell poweredge 2500....it was working just fine..yesterday i shut it down to move into the closet and now when it boots i get "boot from (hd0,0) ext3 *UIDD#* Starting ip..." then the computer freezes | 00:54 |
| Lostinspace_46 | trakcyia I should say that file is read on boot, then placed in ram so without a reboot the changes won't be read | 00:55 |
| sebsebseb | crunge: unetbootin will do other distros as well | 00:55 |
| faryshta | Hi, just installed Ubuntu on a different partition from where I had a Fedora installation, now the grub only recognize the Ubuntu partition. What can I do? | 00:55 |
| Lostinspace_46 | trakcyia | 00:56 |
| Lostinspace_46 | oops | 00:56 |
| eggenz7 | faryshta, edit menu.lst to enable the partition that fedora is on | 00:56 |
| akSeya | faryshta, boot into Ubuntu, mount your fedora partition, take a look at the menu.lst from fedora and copy the entry to your ubuntu menu.lst | 00:56 |
| jfdklsjklfdj | didnt work | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | faryshta: should be able to add Fedora gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | faryshta: are you dual booting Fedora and Ubuntu, or do you have Windows on there as well or something? | 00:57 |

| ActionParsnip | hey guys | 00:57 |
| trakcyia | i changed key c's corresponding number to that of key i, and vice versa. nothing changed | 00:58 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: coudn't sleep or something? | 00:58 |
| akSeya | any idea on my problem? ps.: i dont have an awai card | 00:58 |
| ActionParsnip | if you run vlc http server, does it need an x server | 00:58 |
| trakcyia | perhaps if i change the label that the number corresponds to instead, though that logically will do the same thing | 00:58 |

| faryshta | akSeya, sebsebseb thanks I will try to edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst and I have not any Windows install here ;-) | 01:00 |
| ActionParsnip | axisys: instead of generic ;) | 01:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Dream-Stalker: howdy | 01:00 |
| greensimian | So if there are no prefs, whats the dif between Pluse and ALSA? | 01:01 |
| sebsebseb | faryshta: how much RAM do you have? | 01:01 |
| Dream-Stalker | ^^ | 01:01 |
| faryshta | 2 gb | 01:01 |
| sebsebseb | faryshta: ok well dual booting is sucky, how about picking a distro, Ubuntu or Fedora, Fedora :) and putting that on as host, and virtual maching the other | 01:02 |
| ActionParsnip | greensimian: afaik, pulse allows different volume levels for each app. | 01:02 |
| faryshta | sebsebseb, I wanna try to learn as much distros as I can, besides I have a /home partition so the configuration is not an issue. | 01:02 |
| faryshta | sebsebseb, thanks for the suggestion. | 01:03 |
| sebsebseb | faryshta: as much distros as you can, so virtual machines make sense :) | 01:03 |
| traemccombs | Any WoW + Wine + Ubuntu users around? I've just upgraded my account to battle.net and can't get connected. I'm able to log in on my windows box. The problem seems to be from the Battle.net Account Selector. (I have 2 accounts) | 01:03 |
| sebsebseb | faryshta: having to psyically install each time you want to try another distro, that really does suck | 01:03 |
| === Dream-Stalker is now known as Dream | ||
| ActionParsnip | traemccombs: i'd ask in #winehq | 01:03 |
| crunge | sebsebseb: nothing works better for learning than experiment. You *can* use ubuntu's USB Startup Device creator thingie to make USB boot tokens for other distros. Debian at least | 01:03 |
| faryshta | sebsebseb, thunar and gnome-monitor manager can't find the partitions were I have fedora. :( | 01:04 |

| gartral | ok all, im having two issues today, firstly shiretoko (firefo-3.5) will not open a link passed my another application... any thoughts? | 01:05 |
| ActionParsnip | alex87: try booting to recovery root and setting the password | 01:05 |
| sebsebseb | crunge: did you do it? | 01:06 |
| alex87 | thanks ActionParsnip, i'll give it a shot | 01:06 |
| faryshta | ActionParsnip, I have already the hard drive partitioned. But the grub only takes on account one partition to boot. | 01:06 |
| webpigeon | sebsebseb, oh hai o/ | 01:06 |
| crunge | sebsebseb: Yes. That's what I said. I was able to use Ubuntu's USB boot creator to throw a debian businesscard ISO onto a USB key | 01:06 |
| VCoolio | where to look if pcmanfm refuses to open files? | 01:06 |
| crunge | sebsebseb: maybe it worked because of family heritage ;) | 01:06 |
| BlasenMich | something about my X Window | 01:07 |
| faryshta | sebsebseb, I don't wanna run virtual, I wanna feel thee all distro. | 01:07 |
| sebsebseb | crunge: right well if you want to do other distros as well webpidgeon may be able to help you with unetbootin. | 01:07 |
| webpigeon | sebsebseb, https://launchpad.net/~gezakovacs/+archive/ppa | 01:07 |
| crunge | sebsebseb: excellent. Thanks for the pointer | 01:07 |
| ActionParsnip | faryshta: true, but you use grub to boot any other partition after that | 01:07 |
| sebsebseb | faryshta: I think your issue is, because Fedora uses LVM, and Ubuntu don't, and now Ubuntu's Grub can't find your Fedora install | 01:08 |
| BlasenMich | well whomever it was, my video looks good... thanks so much for the help | 01:08 |
| ActionParsnip | faryshta: you would need to repartition, virtual systems will show how the system runs on virtual hardware | 01:08 |
| crunge | sebsebseb: I'm building a low-power embedded router firewall. All the storage is on a compact flash card | 01:08 |
| sebsebseb | faryshta: webpidgeon may be able to help you, since he uses Ubuntu and Fedora, and setting up to many partitions for some crazy multiboot which ActionParsnip is suggesting, I really don't think is that great an idea | 01:09 |
| Xerran | Is there anyone familiar with Open Sound installation? | 01:09 |

| devil | Hi I´m devil again, PLS how to install a usb wireless device WLAN0 in ubuntu server 8.10 | 01:10 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: why is it so crazy, virtual systems use virtual hardware only so are not a true representation of the OS. You can multiboot as much as you like provided you have the space | 01:10 |
| gartral | ok secondly, my VLC will re-display the title of whatever is playing everytime the scean changes | 01:10 |
| faryshta | ActionParsnip, sebsebseb will check for it on internet I am now confused @.@ | 01:10 |
| Xerran | I have a SoundBlaster X-Fi card | 01:10 |
| devil | hello? | 01:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Xerran: unlucky | 01:11 |
| blendmaster1024 | hi devil | 01:11 |
| devil | PLS how to install a usb wireless device WLAN0 in ubuntu server 8.10 | 01:11 |
| Xerran | I have audio from using Open Sound but I need to make system sounds work | 01:11 |
| blendmaster1024 | devil, plug it in | 01:11 |
| devil | console mode | 01:11 |
| devil | done | 01:12 |
| bruce89 | blendmaster1024: that sounded a bit unlucky | 01:12 |
| blendmaster1024 | it should be installed | 01:12 |
| devil | nope | 01:12 |
| sebsebseb | faryshta: normalley ActionParnsip is pretty good at giving people advice, but I am not so sure about this time, also you have alreayd expereinced Grub not working as you would have liked, because you can't boot up Fedora right now, and oh yes if you put to many distros on, you can get some right issues with Grub in the future | 01:12 |
| crunge | Xerran: My GF has one of those. Have had 0 luck getting it to work with ALSA, but it's also a 32-bit system | 01:12 |

| blendmaster1024 | anybody know the tulip ethernet driver? mine is buggy, and i don't quite know what to change | 01:13 |

| Xerran | I never tried ALSA | 01:13 |
| ecruz | ola | 01:14 |
| blendmaster1024 | Xerran, time to change that | 01:14 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: a long list that would suck | 01:14 |
| trakcyia | brb | 01:14 |
| crunge | Xerran: I believe it's supposed to work with ALSA now on 64bit | 01:14 |
| devil | What I can do to see the wireless networks availables | 01:14 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: its still entirely possible | 01:14 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: also if your going to have more than one OS on the same computer, it's better to be able to run them both at the same time, yep virtual machine | 01:14 |
| Xerran | There was no audio from the get go once the OS was isntalled | 01:14 |
| devil | somebody can help me? about ubuntu server console mode | 01:15 |
| devil | ??? | 01:15 |
| crunge | Xerran: I read a good article explaining why the author felt OSS4 was superior to ALSA, but you'll have endless trouble trying to use an alterative for such a critical feature set | 01:15 |
| ecruz | ola alguem brasileiro | 01:15 |
| blendmaster1024 | devil, apperantly not | 01:15 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: its an option but for a proper test on how each one runs on the hardware a true boot is needed as virtualised hardware is not representative of the true hardware | 01:15 |

| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: and virtual machines work rather well, except for certain things, 3D graphics for example, but your last comment is true, however instead of setting up a complex multi boot set up, why not install one or two or three OS's, and remove what's not wanted anymore | 01:16 |

| blackest_knight | devil: i speak a couple of languages yours isn't one of them, and what we have here is a failure to communicate :) | 01:27 |
| dameon | i've got an old compaq proliant 5000 | 01:27 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: it can go in the MBR of a Windows hard disk though of course | 01:27 |

| ubottu | dameon: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 01:27 |
| dameon | and for some reason the installer is only reading 16 MB of mem | 01:27 |
| asddasdas | sebsebseb: why would be a bad idea? | 01:27 |

| HGF | hello all. does any1 have the problem in pidgin where any link (or new mail) links do NOT open in firefox ..or at all. any solutions? | 01:28 |
| dameon | good to know. Anyway, the compaq proliant actually has nearly 450 MB of ram, but the installer for ubuntu server only recognizes 16 MB. The kernel panics, and I fail to even start the install. | 01:29 |
| pelmen | dameon: update bios | 01:29 |
| bruce89 | !tab | XfuMaster | 01:29 |
| ubottu | XfuMaster: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 01:29 |
| sebsebseb | Pici: can you deal with ecruz properly and maybe XfuMaster as well, I as well as other people are doing some support here :) | 01:29 |
| ecruz | pici fala portugues brasil | 01:29 |
| arand | HGF: Have you tried holding ctrl whilst clicking (just a guess) | 01:29 |
| dameon | i've updated the bios, and it recognizes all of the ram. is there a way to force ubuntu to check all the ram? | 01:29 |
| Jaredu | hey guys quick question: my sound died what's the terminal command to open up the visual prompt thing to where I can fix it? all my levels are high and it's plugged in properly, this happens often :\ | 01:29 |
| cooper77z | I don't even really understand what pidgin is supposed to do | 01:30 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: ,because you don't want any of the Grub stuff inside Windows itself, you just don't | 01:30 |
| HGF | arand, oh it clicks fine but it gives an error msg | 01:30 |
| blackest_knight | dameon: you could install the hdd on a different system , its not windows the install would adapt | 01:30 |
| VCoolio | HGF: have you set a browser in the prefs? | 01:30 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: ,but you can put Grub in the Master Boot Record of the Windows hard disk of course, the very first section | 01:30 |
| XfuMaster | sebsebse: Play along or be nice... You seems to hsve no joust | 01:30 |
| HGF | VCoolio, i just installed so...probably not? | 01:30 |

| sebsebseb | XfuMaster: whatever you came out with some kind of stupid comment to me | 01:30 |
| HGF | VCoolio, how do i do so | 01:31 |
| cooper77z | once I tried to configure it to yahoo messenger, but I failed to do it | 01:31 |
| dameon | I'm not sure I understand you; the system is clean right now, no OS (I'm installing ubuntu because windows keeps failing and no one knows why) | 01:31 |
| Jaredu | wtf now i have button sounds but my mp3's fail... the hell? | 01:31 |
| sebsebseb | Pici: thanks :) | 01:31 |
| asddasdas | sebsebseb: can i do it using only WinXP, without installed any linux os | 01:31 |
| cooper77z | does pidgin translate language or something? | 01:31 |
| ActionParsnip | dameon: if its the 219205-001 server it comes with 16mb ram | 01:31 |
| Pici | sebsebseb: sure, sorry for the slowness, just doing a few things at once here. | 01:31 |
| VCoolio | HGF: ok, in menu find prefs and in some tab find entry for browser command, make that like "firefox %u" | 01:31 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: don't think so, you will need a Live CD of some sort that will install Grub | 01:31 |
| akSeya | guys, I have ubuntu 9.04 on my notebook.. it's an Acer Aspire 5920 ... It has a Card Reader that is not working on ubuntu... any idea on what should I do to get it working? | 01:31 |
| asddasdas | sebsebseb: i have a live cd, using it right now | 01:32 |
| ActionParsnip | cooper77z: no, it simply allows you to chat on irc, jabber, msn, yahoo etc | 01:32 |
| VCoolio | HGF: in the buddy list window, not in the messages window | 01:32 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: you have Ubuntu installed already? | 01:32 |
| sebsebseb | Pici: np | 01:32 |
| cooper77z | ActionParsnip, why is it needed? | 01:32 |
| ActionParsnip | akSeya: plug in a card into it and run: dmesg | tail; sudo fdisk -l; mount | 01:32 |
| renic | what file contains IP address assignments? | 01:32 |
| Jaredu | hmm nevermind guys apparently movieplayer isn't a good choice for mp3's | 01:32 |
| akSeya | ActionParsnip, dmesg show's nothing | 01:33 |
| asddasdas | sebsebseb: no, i didnt | 01:33 |
| ActionParsnip | cooper77z: for chatting. i use it for irc mainly but i use most of its protocols | 01:33 |
| blackest_knight | daemon: sounds like you have bad hardware , try reseating the ram and or run memtest from the cd | 01:33 |
| cooper77z | ok, | 01:33 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: ok so your basically confussed as to where Grub is meant to go, hence why your asking these questions? | 01:33 |
| cooper77z | I knew it was popular | 01:33 |
| dameon | There's a heck of a lot more ram than that in this machine; it's a second-hand server from a company that went under years ago. They beefed up the system; all the ram slots are filled. The POST checks and verifies all 448 MB of ram, and i've reconfigured the BIOS several times so i'm sure it's reading all the ram. | 01:33 |
| ActionParsnip | cooper77z: its not needed, as in if you remove it the system will still work fine | 01:33 |
| cooper77z | but just didn't know why specifically | 01:33 |
| casey | does Ubuntu have like a remote desktop thing? | 01:33 |
| sebsebseb | !vnc | casey | 01:34 |
| ubottu | casey: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 01:34 |
| ActionParsnip | cooper77z: use it, if you like it, use it. if not, get something else | 01:34 |
| renic | casey: yes. x-windows was originally designed for network access | 01:34 |
| HGF | VCoolio_, ty | 01:34 |
| asddasdas | sebsebseb: well... no. my question is: can i install grub without installing any linux distribution. i'm ok with installing it in its own partition or something like that | 01:34 |
| blackest_knight | casey: not just vnc ssh or even rdp | 01:34 |
| renic | I like nxserver and nxclient are awesome | 01:34 |

| renic | what a horid sentence :) | 01:34 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: why would you want Grub for Windows? that does not make sense | 01:34 |
| renic | cooper77z: if you want to connect to IM servers. | 01:34 |
| ActionParsnip | cooper77z: there is no better, or best, use what you prefer | 01:35 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: in fact there's even a Windows bootloader that can be enabled | 01:35 |
| akSeya | ActionParsnip, how can I find out if the card reader is properly detected by Ubuntu? | 01:35 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: that lets you boot other versions of Windows, and I think with some kind of hack, other operating systems as well | 01:35 |
| Jaredu | anyone know how to setup a gtk theme? | 01:35 |
| asddasdas | sebsebseb: yes but i cant get to the recovery console from the windows cd | 01:35 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: well yes other operating systems can be booted from the Windows boot loader as well | 01:35 |
| kovacsleeve | Is there a way to duplicate an existing Ubuntu installation on another machine? (IE same programs installed, but different logins/pwds)? | 01:35 |
| ActionParsnip | akSeya: run: dmesg | less and read, there will be a lot to read but you will see stuff about the reader | 01:35 |

| ActionParsnip | !yahoo | 01:36 |
| ubottu | At the moment there are many pidgin users experiencing problems connecting to Yahoo IM, you can try changing your paging server to cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com (port 5050) and see if that helps. | 01:36 |
| Lostinspace_46 | What does it mean when I see something like !vnc | casey ? This is my first time in channel. | 01:36 |
| sebsebseb | asddasdas: which recovery console? | 01:36 |

| ubottu | Lostinspace_46: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel. | 01:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Lostinspace_46: it prompts ubottu to output a factoid, the pipe (the '|' character) makes ubottu say it to a user | 01:37 |
| asddasdas | sebsebseb: the one that lets you type 'fixmbr' to reinstall the windows bootloader | 01:37 |
| sebsebseb | Lostinspace_46: look at what I did there | 01:37 |
| renic | so, back to my earlier question.. i need to remove one of the IP addresses from a remote ubuntu machine. It won't let me do it from a remote desktop connection, so I need to edit the file that contains the IP addresses. In freebsd, i would just edit rc.conf. Ubuntu doesn't use rc.conf, and I can't seem to find it. :( | 01:37 |

| renic | ActionParsnip: I have static IPs set on the machine now, but they do not appear there. | 01:41 |
| Lostinspace_46 | asddasdas windows is very selfish about the MBR, and if installed second it wipes out grub | 01:41 |
| Dekko | Bruce89 Thanks!! | 01:41 |
| b0nn | hmm, I want to set up an ssh tunnel, but I don't want the forwarding part to be to a single address, I want it to be to any address | 01:41 |
| bruce89 | cooper77z: IRC is this, IM is from one person to another | 01:41 |
| Paavi2_0 | cooper77z: is that a problem? | 01:41 |
| blackest_knight | dameon: check your memory with the memtest on the ubuntu cd , given that even with windows not recognising the ram , it sounds like a hardware issue. | 01:42 |
| ActionParsnip | renic, if you use network manager then i do not know where they are stored | 01:42 |
| cooper77z | oh, so in irc you don't know who you are talking to, but in pidgin you do? | 01:42 |
| renic | ActionParsnip: that's my problem too :( --- :) | 01:42 |
| bruce89 | cooper77z: well, IRC is to more than one person usually | 01:43 |
| Paavi2_0 | cooper77z: pidgin is a program, not a protocol. and with pidgin you can do im (instant messaging) and irc (internet relay chat) | 01:43 |
| dameon | blackest_knight: i've done the memtest, and it's all ok... it only shows 16 MB though | 01:43 |
| Dekko | bruce89 is <M> = Mandatory? | 01:43 |

| n2diy | ! xmarks | 01:48 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about xmarks | 01:48 |
| NefariousTed | it's not as cut and dry as one might think though. My computer has no disc drive, and will not connect to the internet. | 01:48 |
| dameon | pelmen: I might try that... But i'll be here for ever :) | 01:48 |
| VCoolio | n2diy: export bookmarks to html, import with user2? or copypaste the file if you can find it (.mozilla/firefox/blah.default/??) | 01:48 |
| n2diy | Seronis: what are xmarks? | 01:48 |
| pelmen | dameon: common it's only 16 slots :) | 01:49 |
| VCoolio | n2diy: xmarks is a plugin, works too | 01:49 |
| boss_mc | NefariousTed: got a USB > 1Gb and can the BIOS boot from USB? | 01:49 |
| Seronis | n2diy: its a browser plugin that manages your bookmarks between any number of installations | 01:49 |
| sebsebseb | NefariousTed: ok well in that case, to be honest with you, it's a bit pointless to have Ubuntu on your computer, unless your going to do word proccessing and that's about it | 01:49 |
| Seronis | multiple logins across any number of computers. great for syncing | 01:49 |
| pelmen | dameon: even though bios shows all 450 does not mean, it correctly transfers (or whatever) them to OS | 01:49 |
| NefariousTed | Sebsebseb:I'm trying to get ubuntu on there so I can make it connect to the internet, or at least see if i can like that. | 01:49 |
| Lostinspace_46 | boss_mc well xfce Is more like naming keys rather than assigning them key codes | 01:49 |
| dameon | pelmen: yeah, but the cover has a power-kill, as in I need to reassemble the computer every time to test | 01:50 |

| Seronis | but that only updates once | 01:50 |
| trakcyia | lostinspace_46 modded xmodmap.dvorak then in xterm xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.dvorak | 01:50 |

| dameon | pelmen: it'll take an awl with how long the pin is on the cover... and good point on the os.... | 01:51 |
| pelmen | dameon: i meant bios may not correctly transfer ram sizes to upper level | 01:51 |
| NefariousTed | I've tried booting from a usb, but it never works out. | 01:51 |
| n2diy | ok, I'll check out xmarks, thanks. | 01:51 |
| sebsebseb | NefariousTed: no CD and no USB, and no Internet, and what no local area network either? | 01:51 |
| boss_mc | Lostinspace_46: yeah, so it's a higher level operation, there could be things underneath stealing the key presses... | 01:51 |
| dameon | pelmen: is there a way to make it transfer? | 01:51 |
| NefariousTed | I have a flash drive, and I have a usb port | 01:52 |
| NefariousTed | it's just for some reason, it refuses to boot from the usb | 01:52 |
| pelmen | dameon: i have no idea, that's why i told you to update bios.. | 01:52 |
| sebsebseb | NefariousTed: well unless you can get the USB working, your basically stuck with Windows, I assume your computer currently runs Windows. also is it really a netbook? with a small hard disk? | 01:52 |
| NefariousTed | No, it's a desk top, running windows 7. | 01:52 |
| boss_mc | NefariousTed: can you take out the HD, install ubuntu on it from another pc and then replace it (ubuntu will sort out drivers etc automatically) | 01:52 |

| cooper77z | I typed"/whois i.e /whois Paavi2_0" | 01:54 |
| cooper77z | it did nothing | 01:54 |
| NefariousTed | I could to that, but it would be less immediate than I'm looking for. | 01:54 |
| Lostinspace_46 | boss_mc usr/include/linux/input.h | 01:54 |
| bruce89 | cooper77z: just the /whois Paavi2_0 would work | 01:54 |
| cooper77z | oh | 01:54 |
| cooper77z | oops | 01:54 |
| dameon | pelmen: yup.... I'll work on that. I've got to go, but thanks for the help. | 01:55 |
| censushq | i \ | 01:55 |
| Lostinspace_46 | boss_mc that file has enough keycodes for 2 keyboards..lol | 01:55 |
| cooper77z | I don't think thats an actual 0 | 01:55 |
| === censushq is now known as dc-dave | ||
| boss_mc | Lostinspace_46: no idea, could be anything... | 01:55 |
| cooper77z | still didn't work | 01:55 |
| bruce89 | cooper77z: indeed | 01:55 |
| dc-dave | how do i load xp into virtualbox | 01:55 |
| Pici | !ot | 01:56 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 01:56 |
| dc-dave | it wont recognize the exe | 01:56 |
| arand | NefariousTed: and you've already checked the bios for enabling usb boot? | 01:56 |
| cooper77z | still didn't work | 01:56 |
| dc-dave | do i use an iso file | 01:56 |
| bruce89 | cooper77z: use tab completion | 01:56 |
| cooper77z | how? | 01:56 |
| bruce89 | !tab | 01:56 |
| ubottu | You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 01:56 |
| dc-dave | i do not want to boot to xp, i want to run xp inside ubuntu with virtualbox | 01:56 |
| cooper77z | press tab, got nothing | 01:57 |
| b0nn | vmware | 01:57 |
| bruce89 | dc-dave: You need the CD or ISO of the thing you want to install, and you just assign it to a virtual drive in VB | 01:57 |
| cooper77z | oh start with the first few letters, duh | 01:57 |
| arand | dc-dave: mount the iso in the vm, or use a physical xp cd and connecti it to the vm, then install xp as you would on a physical comp. | 01:57 |
| Lostinspace_46 | boss_mc OK, gonna run and do come checking, that would explain the problem..never thought of stolen keys..thanks | 01:57 |
| dc-dave | ok | 01:57 |
| dc-dave | i have a usb cd rom drive | 01:57 |
| boss_mc | Lostinspace_46: good luck! | 01:57 |
| dc-dave | vb seems to revo | 01:57 |
| dc-dave | vb ose does not support usb | 01:58 |
| cooper77z | still isn't working | 01:58 |
| bruce89 | cooper77z: heh, tab with 1337 possible completions would be tricky | 01:58 |
| Lostinspace_46 | boss_mc Thanks! | 01:58 |
| cooper77z | but I am certain it's operatre error | 01:58 |
| trakcyia | ok so now all i have to do is spend a month or so getting used to this layout | 01:58 |
| dc-dave | but the usb cd rom drive is recognized by ubuntu | 01:58 |
| bruce89 | cooper77z: which client is this? | 01:58 |
| cooper77z | I don't know #ubuntu? | 01:58 |
| cooper77z | I am a noob | 01:59 |
| jefinc | cooper77z: he means irc client | 01:59 |
| bruce89 | pidgin, xchat? | 01:59 |
| cooper77z | really not pretending | 01:59 |
| trakcyia | and add the xmodmap line to rc.local | 01:59 |
| dc-dave | can i install xp to the same hard disk or do i n eed a new partition | 01:59 |
| uber_noober | dc-dave: you can install virtualbox in ubuntu then install win xp | 01:59 |
| jefinc | cooper77z: you're using irc to talk to us, what program did you open to do so | 01:59 |
| dc-dave | my ubuntu netbook (refurb) came with an XP Home Edition COA, which i assume is legit and i can activate as a license | 01:59 |
| cooper77z | x-chat-gnome | 01:59 |
| TiM | please Help me | 02:00 |
| dc-dave | whatha need tim | 02:00 |
| uber_noober | dc-dave: what you can do is use gparted to create a partition for ubuntu, then install ubuntu onto that partition | 02:00 |
| TiM | my sound doesn't work on firefox | 02:00 |

| sebsebseb | bruce89: wrong channel I think | 02:04 |
| TiM | donne but not happend | 02:04 |
| sebsebseb | Edson`: Wine and Virtualbox have some Directx support | 02:04 |
| Edson` | Thanks | 02:04 |
| bruce89 | Edson`: onyl VB 3.0 however | 02:04 |
| Edson` | ah | 02:05 |
| bruce89 | which is rather new | 02:05 |
| ctmjr | Edson`, no it uses glx | 02:05 |
| sebsebseb | Edson`: ,but it depends on the game, how well Wine or Virtualbox 3.0 will work with it, and the game may not work at all | 02:05 |
| uber_noober | bruce89: lower versions of VB have DX support as well | 02:05 |
| booh | I heard about iscsi server on ubuntu. Is it a better solution to share windows files than samba? What about perfs? | 02:05 |

| Edson` | I tried Guild Wars, but it didn't work. | 02:05 |
| Edson` | tried* | 02:05 |
| dc-dave | tim: checkup this https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-tn/2009-April/003601.html | 02:05 |
| Jaredu | Edson`, i managed to get guild wars to work, what's the problem? | 02:05 |
| Jaredu | it was awhile back though | 02:06 |
| Edson` | It just stays at a black screen | 02:06 |
| Jaredu | ah | 02:06 |
| Jaredu | do you have compiz on? | 02:06 |
| sebsebseb | uber_noober Edson` Virtualbox 3.0 is the one you need to try those games in if doing the virtual machine, older versions aren't wroth bothering with | 02:06 |
| TiM | wait a minute | 02:06 |
| Jaredu | Edson`, do you have compiz enabled? | 02:06 |
| sebsebseb | Edson`: I think you can do Guild Wars in Wine | 02:06 |
| Jaredu | sebsebseb, you can, ive done it :D | 02:06 |
| Edson` | it was a while ago, don't have it now, i was just checking | 02:06 |
| uber_noober | sebsebseb: question was if there was dx support in ubuntu | 02:06 |
| sebsebseb | uber_noober: right, but Edson` probably meant if there was in any of the programs that can be installed in Ubuntu | 02:07 |
| Jaredu | Edson`, it's definitely possible, I'd say if it hangs at a black screen just make sure compiz is off, i haven't tried it in awhile though but for me it was just a straight install in wine | 02:07 |
| bruce89 | Edson`: TBH, I would and do keep windows around for that purpose | 02:07 |
| dc-dave | is there a keyboard shortcut to get terminal in a window instead of full screen? | 02:07 |
| gizmobay | Can someone tell me how to install kernel 2.26.29? | 02:07 |
| uber_noober | sebsebseb: you are correct, tho I run v2.x vbox and I have dx support | 02:08 |
| sebsebseb | uber_noober: also if there was built in Directx10 support in Ubuntu or Wine came with Ubuntu, bruce89 would be rather unhappy indeed | 02:08 |
| dc-dave | gizmo: I tried it and it broke my wifi and sound | 02:08 |
| Edson` | bruce89: True | 02:08 |
| gizmobay | tried the package from kernel.ubuntu.com | 02:08 |
| uber_noober | sebsebseb: lol | 02:08 |
| dc-dave | gizmo: I don;t reccomend, lots of issues | 02:08 |
| jeanchauvin | Can anyone help me mount my Western Digital 350 GB My Passport? It was working until today and I've tried a few things, but can't get it to work. | 02:08 |
| gizmobay | ok thanks | 02:08 |
| sebsebseb | uber_noober: I know that guy resaonbly well now on IRC :) | 02:08 |
| gizmobay | I'm having an issue with my computer freezing | 02:09 |
| jefinc | jeanchauvin: have you recently used it with windoze? | 02:09 |
| gizmobay | said 2.26.29 would fix | 02:09 |
| sebsebseb | uber_noober: so what I said is rather true | 02:09 |
| uber_noober | sebsebseb: :P | 02:09 |
| TiM | dc-dave: doesn't work | 02:09 |
| aboleth | Hello, I am using Ubuntu 8.10 and I have a problem with sound. Sound works in some programs and not in others. I already tried fixing older problems with sound, so PulseAudio and some other things aren't the same as default for me. I can get sound with desktop sounds, Firefox/Flash, and Banshee, but it does not work with any games. Does anyone know what i can do? | 02:09 |
| dc-dave | tim: did it ever work | 02:09 |
| uber_noober | aboleth: google esd and alsa | 02:09 |
| TiM | the movie on youtube makes crashes and audio doesn't work | 02:09 |
| TiM | dc-dave: never! | 02:09 |
| dc-dave | you can try to use the SYNAPTIC to get "alsa" | 02:10 |
| jeanchauvin | I tried to let my boss plug it in on his computer, but it wouldn't mount on his, so I just pulled the cord out. I tried plugging it in on Ubuntu, but nothing happened, so I restarted it while it was attached, but still nothing. | 02:10 |
| TiM | dc-dave: yesterday i turn sound on, but not firefox | 02:10 |
| dc-dave | same for aboleth | 02:10 |
| uber_noober | sebsebseb: do you know anything about cups? | 02:10 |
| dc-dave | use synaptic to get alsa, tim and aboleth | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | !cups | uber_noober | 02:10 |
| ubottu | uber_noober: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows | 02:10 |

| uber_noober | LOL | 02:11 |
| dc-dave | the kernel update i loaded tues broke my sound and wifi | 02:11 |
| dc-dave | to get everything back i had to modify the grub list go to back to the older kernel | 02:11 |
| Edson` | mIRC was weirded out on ubuntu the last time i tried | 02:11 |
| trakcyia | how do i add a line that runs a program to an already existing startup script? | 02:11 |

| uber_noober | bruce89: how about it? | 02:12 |
| ctmjr | aboleth, i fixed my sound problems on 8.10 by going into preferences / sessions and unchecking anything with pulseaudio and choosing alsa in sound | 02:12 |

| uber_noober | none available | 02:13 |
| uber_noober | a dude at #debian told me i have to build a driver (ppd) | 02:14 |
| bruce89 | uber_noober: I see, that would be rather difficult | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | uber_noober: virtual machine Wndows if enough RAM, and do printing like that, and the version that supports USB of course from http://www.virtualbox.org and for Linux hosts. well this is worth a try, if you can't get the thing working natively, and don't want to buy another printer which is supported | 02:14 |

| bruce89 | uber_noober: heh | 02:16 |
| sebsebseb | FrozenFire[work]: why not? | 02:16 |
| ctmjr | aboleth, you might have to change the sound driver in the program itself if you already have pulse disabled | 02:17 |

| nomasteryoda | uber_noober, but what if you did it with a cat5 cable and hooked to your router or hub? | 02:18 |
| belorix | ow do you cancel a intallation | 02:18 |
| ctmjr | aboleth, depends on the program more than likely it is under preferences or options | 02:18 |
| Dream-Stalker | click cancle? | 02:18 |
| Dream-Stalker | cancel* | 02:18 |
| sebsebseb | FrozenFire[work]: well if Windows goes bad enough, your Wubi install will as well | 02:18 |
| belorix | you cant click "cancel" from CLI | 02:18 |
| nomasteryoda | !wine |junior_ | 02:18 |

| aboleth | its a module for python | 02:19 |
| Brent_Roth | nikolatesla: check wine's website and see the feedback for whatever game(s) you're wanting to play ... if the feedback is good, you're better off using wine ... a virtual machine is a large amount of overhead | 02:20 |
| aboleth | that lets you make games | 02:20 |

| casey | what is the password for root or is it my accounf password | 02:41 |
| cabrey | !root | casey | 02:41 |
| ubottu | casey: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 02:41 |
| brummbaer | casey: if you need long-term root access, you can 'sudo -i' | 02:41 |

| labeau | ok renamed | 02:51 |
| bmorris | I'm not sure how to do that though... | 02:51 |
| lightningseed | RuneMaximus: couple it with screen and you'll never leave the terminal again | 02:51 |
| test34 | mechtech: try to run the link from the command line maybe? you could type: "linkname <enter>" or "wine linkname <enter>" it might give you a meaningful error message | 02:52 |
| bastidrazor | bmorris, what is the binary for air? use that binary to air file.air .. supposing 'air' is the binary for adobe air | 02:52 |
| DarwinSurvivor | is there a firewall that could be rejecting connections before iptables gets to filter it? (netbook edition, not server) | 02:52 |

| evanescent | I really just want to enable 'Option “AccelMethod” “UXA”' | 02:57 |
| bluntman225 | hey guys, how can i set up my wireless network to accept dhcp | 02:57 |
| bruce89 | evanescent: AFAIK you need to create the appropriate section in the empty file | 02:58 |
| bluntman225 | or how do I edit my wireless settings...I cant get my wireless to work | 02:58 |
| bastidrazor | RuneMaximus, do sudo apt-get install irssi | 02:58 |
| ColbyIsColby | i have an old iMac DV with a 500MHz (G3) PPC Processor, and 128MB RAM. | 02:58 |
| renic | DarwinSurvivor: is network manager running on the the netbook? | 02:58 |
| DarwinSurvivor | renic: yes | 02:58 |
| ColbyIsColby | would I be fine installing Xubuntu, or should I try Debian. | 02:58 |
| evanescent | I tried that and ubuntu starts into a low graphics mode | 02:58 |
| RuneMaximus | thank bastidrazor that seems to be working | 02:59 |
| evanescent | the tutorial is supposedly confirmed to work for my exact graphics card so I think there's something about just adding the information to the xorg.conf file thats causing problems | 02:59 |
| ibuclaw | ColbyIsColby, you should be fine ... Ubuntu has a PPC version in ports | 02:59 |
| renic | DarwinSurvivor: If i had to guess (which I'm doing), i would disable it and setup networking manually... network manager already screwed me today, so i'm prejudice... ;D | 02:59 |
| ColbyIsColby | Thanks. | 02:59 |
| ibuclaw | ColbyIsColby, http://ports.ubuntu.com | 03:00 |
| StrangeCharm | after changing /etc/network/interfaces , how to i make the interface load the changes? | 03:00 |
| qwebirc8915 | I am trying to follow: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades but when I get to the end and run "sudo do-release-upgrade" it says command not found can anyone help with this | 03:00 |
| ColbyIsColby | I have the alternate install CD for 9.04 PPC and I have been debating to install it. | 03:00 |
| === jared is now known as Guest91381 | ||
| ColbyIsColby | because reinstalling OS X because Xubuntu is too slow is too much of a pain. | 03:00 |
| DarwinSurvivor | renic: I would, but until the machine is ready for production, it needs to be used on many wireless networks (making command line setup quite annoying) | 03:00 |
| Guest91381 | Hey, can anyone help me set up a terminal button involving xwinwrap? I have a neat setup for it but I can't seem to make a launcher button- it works fine in a normal terminal. | 03:00 |
| === Guest91381 is now known as Jaredu | ||
| Jaredu | Hey, can anyone help me set up a terminal button involving xwinwrap? I have a neat setup for it but I can't seem to make a launcher button- it works fine in a normal terminal. | 03:01 |
| Jaredu | sorry about the guest name thing | 03:01 |
| ColbyIsColby | /msg nickserv | 03:01 |
| ColbyIsColby | whoops. | 03:01 |
| renic | DarwinSurvivor: my idea was to use that method for testing if network manager is the problem.. If it is, there's probably a way to write a solution in a shell script. | 03:01 |
| ibuclaw | ColbyIsColby, the mini.iso is here: http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/jaunty/main/installer-powerpc/current/images/powerpc/netboot/mini.iso | 03:01 |
| Jaredu | anyone have any ideas? | 03:01 |
| Lo_Pan | wtf | 03:01 |
| renic | DarwinSurvivor: or patch network manager if you have a coder handy. | 03:01 |
| sebsebseb | !langauge | Lo_Pan | 03:01 |
| ubottu | Lo_Pan: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 03:01 |
| ibuclaw | ColbyIsColby, the minimal boot installer should give you /every/ option to choose from on installation (including the choice to load aptitude and manually select packages). | 03:02 |
| bruce89 | surely not | 03:02 |
| ColbyIsColby | Aptitude? Sorry, I am kind of new to this.. | 03:02 |
| ibuclaw | so you can tailor what packages / tasks you want installed before you boot the machine. | 03:02 |
| Jaredu | Hey, can anyone help me set up a terminal button involving xwinwrap? I have a neat setup for it but I can't seem to make a launcher button- it works fine in a normal terminal. | 03:02 |
| ColbyIsColby | oh okay. | 03:02 |
| ibuclaw | ColbyIsColby, aptitude is a frontend to apt-get | 03:02 |
| DarwinSurvivor | renic: what did you use instead of network manager (cli, wicd, etc)? | 03:02 |
| ibuclaw | ColbyIsColby, are you booted into Ubuntu at the moment ? | 03:03 |
| ColbyIsColby | Uhhm, no. I am on the machine I want to install Xubuntu on. | 03:03 |
| ibuclaw | ahh | 03:03 |
| Mamoncete | Hi all | 03:03 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Jaredu: did you check the "run in terminal" box in the launcher preferences? | 03:03 |
| nivekc1 | can anyone please help me.. i am wanting to watch a movie on my PC but for some reason i put in the disc and it doesnt work.. it is a dvd psych season 3 i just bought it and it works in my dvd player | 03:03 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, where would that be? I haven't worked with this in awhile and the last time i tried was in 8.10, one sec | 03:03 |
| ColbyIsColby | What do you recomend me making sure I install? | 03:04 |
| Mamoncete | I want to buy a server machine, but I saw that raid HD and controllers are expensive. Do I need any special hardware/HDs in order to use RAID (software) in Ubuntu Server? | 03:04 |
| mechtech | getting closer...at first, I COULDN'T EVEN CD TO THE CORRECT DIRECTORY BECAUSE i HAD SPACES IN THE NAME OF THE DIR | 03:04 |
| mechtech | sorry for yelling | 03:04 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, for some reason that's not working... hmm | 03:04 |
| mechtech | caps lock | 03:04 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Jaredu: right-click the launcher, then select "Properties". Change "Type" to "Application In Terminal" | 03:04 |
| Mamoncete | Or can I just go with 4 SATA HD drives and Ubuntu server (Linux) through software cna emulate a RAID controller? | 03:04 |
| bruce89 | ColbyIsColby: it depends what you want I suppose | 03:04 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, the command i'm running is this: xwinwrap -ni -o 0.6 -fs -s -st -sp -b -nf -- mplayer -wid WID -quiet ~/Desktop/testlegs.avi -loop 0 -nosound -fs | 03:05 |
| evanescent | is there some way I can make X write its config to xorg.conf so i can modify it | 03:05 |
| mechtech | but now I have an error message: wine: could not load L"C:\\windows\\system32\\link.exe": Module not found | 03:05 |
| ColbyIsColby | Well, all I really need is a word processor (I guess I would use AbIWord), a desktop (duh), and anything else that's basic. | 03:05 |
| ColbyIsColby | This machine is kind of for school use. | 03:05 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Jaredu: what happens when you click the launcher after changing the type? | 03:05 |
| ColbyIsColby | and basic internet. | 03:05 |
| ibuclaw | Mamoncete, with RAID, all you need to ensure is that all disks spin at the same speed. | 03:05 |
| bruce89 | ColbyIsColby: I was thinking more along the lines of stability | 03:06 |
| ibuclaw | Mamoncete, the rest can be done using software RAID | 03:06 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, it does nothing.. when i open a terminal and paste in the exact same command it works fine | 03:06 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, ive also tried putting it in startup and it does nothing =\ | 03:06 |
| isaac_ | Is there a program that will handle four or five CD burners at once to make multiple copies? | 03:06 |
| isaac_ | Objective is to make copies of an audio cd. | 03:06 |
| test34 | mechtech: did you mount your windows partition at the same mount point as when your created the link ? | 03:07 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, i did just install gnome-do if that would change anything | 03:07 |
| Mamoncete | ibuclaw, so if the 4 SATA HD drives that I purchase are the same, I assume that all of them will spin at the same speed, won't them? | 03:07 |
| DarwinSurvivor | at the end of the command, add " && sleep 10", that should cause the window to stay open for 10 seconds after the command fails, allowing you to debug it | 03:07 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Jaredu: I use gnome-do myself and haven't had it mess anything up | 03:07 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, kk one second | 03:07 |
| DarwinSurvivor | renic: what connection manager do you use? | 03:07 |
| renic | DarwinSurvivor: I read this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-set-a-static-ip-address-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html | 03:08 |
| mechtech | test34: I made the link inside the windows partition...if that's what you mean | 03:08 |
| ibuclaw | Mamoncete, one would assume so. OEM manufacturers are usually more trustworthy though, but that is just my opinion. ;) | 03:08 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, adding && sleep 10 does nothing, it opens a terminal breifly then crashes it | 03:08 |
| DarwinSurvivor | that is VERY strange... | 03:08 |
| Jaredu | indeed... | 03:08 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Jaredu: that is VERY strange... | 03:08 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, it worked fine in 8.10 or 8.04 im not sure what's changed :\ | 03:09 |
| renic | DarwinSurvivor: haven't tested it yet though... so beware if you don't have physical access | 03:09 |
| Mamoncete | ibuclaw, I can get 4 SATA 1Tera Maxtor HDs for the half of price of 1 RAID HAD 1 Tera, that is why I am asking, and also I have to pay for the RAID controller | 03:09 |
| DarwinSurvivor | renic: unfortunately all my connections so far are wireless :( I guess I'll have to try out wicd. I used to use it, but didn't like the interface. But if it *works* then that's what I'll use | 03:10 |
| isaac_ | Is there a program that will handle four or five CD burners at once to make multiple copies? | 03:10 |
| isaac_ | Objective is to make copies of an audio cd. | 03:10 |
| DarwinSurvivor | isaac_: you could always just run 4 or 5 burning processes in parallel (start the program multiple times) | 03:11 |
| SkiingPenguins | Whenever i try to install ubuntu 8.10 onto my windows me computer, using wubi, the installer asks to restart. the computer restarts and nothing has changed. wubi does not start up. can anyone help me with this? | 03:11 |
| adam7 | DarwinSurvivor: there is a new interface in wicd 1.6, you can grab the deb from http://downloads.wicd.net/pkgs/latest | 03:11 |
| evanescent | is there a graphical frontend for changing xorg.conf in ubuntu 9.04 | 03:11 |
| renic | DarwinSurvivor: should probably confirm that the problem is actually with network manager before abandoning it. | 03:11 |
| evanescent | i seem to recall one in 7.x | 03:11 |
| isaac_ | DarwinSurvivor how many times can you do that before the computer locks up? | 03:11 |
| test34 | jmquebec | 03:12 |
| ibuclaw | Mamoncete, yes. You can buy 4 SATA drives, (ie: 4x 250GB, SATA, 3.5-inch, 7.2K RPM Hard Drive) | 03:12 |
| DarwinSurvivor | adam7: I'm assuming the "xUbuntu_9.04" will work for all ubuntu derivatives? (ubuntu/kubuntu/ubuntu netbook remix/etc)? | 03:12 |
| adam7 | DarwinSurvivor: yup | 03:13 |
| ibuclaw | Mamoncete, and a RAID controller is essential | 03:13 |
| ibuclaw | it's usually a RAID controller card, ie: PCIe | 03:13 |
| Mamoncete | ibuclaw, ahhhhh, so I thought I could avoid the RAID controller and use the Linux software one | 03:13 |
| DarwinSurvivor | isaac_: as long as you don't start a second session for drive Foo before the previous ends, you should be fine | 03:13 |
| Mamoncete | ibuclaw, that was my question | 03:13 |
| gaston9 | Hola alguien me puede ayudar? | 03:14 |
| DarwinSurvivor | adam7: what changes did they make to the interface? (google image search shows only old screenshots) | 03:14 |
| Jaredu | argh... why does it kill term.. >. | 03:14 |

| sebsebseb | BlackBerry: you shoudn't really since the bugs | 03:18 |
| SkiingPenguins | Whenever i try to install ubuntu 8.10 onto my windows me computer, using wubi, the installer asks to restart. the computer restarts and nothing has changed. wubi does not do anything after the restart. can anyone help me with this? | 03:18 |
| BlackBerry | I am a compuratic just tell me. | 03:18 |
| sebsebseb | SkiingPenguins: Wubi is bad, and even worse when it's inside ME I guess | 03:18 |
| sebsebseb | BlackBerry: ask in that channal | 03:19 |
| sebsebseb | SkiingPenguins: better to do a proper partitioned install, also Windows ME is no longer supported by Microsoft, and that's been a few years already | 03:19 |
| BlackBerry | TELL ME where to get ubuntu 10.04 beta!!!!!! | 03:19 |
| stovicek | BlackBerry: there is none | 03:19 |
| sebsebseb | BlackBerry: you can't it does not exist | 03:19 |
| evanescent | is it possible for me to override just one setting using the xorg.conf file since X is generating the config automatically? | 03:19 |
| BlackBerry | Oh i'm stupid | 03:20 |
| Jaredu | DarwinSurvivor, no luck :( | 03:20 |
| DarwinSurvivor | try it from command line (with the bash part in there) and see if the bash sessions reports a crash of any kind | 03:20 |
| BlackBerry | Where can I get the Koala 9.10 beta download? | 03:20 |
| sebsebseb | SkiingPenguins: in fact most of your Windows ME apps you can probably get working in Wine | 03:20 |
| sebsebseb | !karmic | BlackBerry | 03:20 |

| sebsebseb | BlackBerry: karmic is offtopic here go to #ubuntu+1 also alpha3 is out soon I heard | 03:21 |
| BlackBerry | DarwinSurviver you ROCK! | 03:21 |
| sebsebseb | SkiingPenguins: well in that case don't use Wubi, because that puts Ubuntu inside Windows | 03:21 |
| nivekc1 | how can i update mplayer to the newest version? | 03:21 |
| test34 | SkiingPenguins: windows ME ?? its about time you get rid of it | 03:21 |

| adam7 | DarwinSurvivor: VPNs don't work in wicd yet | 03:21 |
| BlackBerry | By! | 03:22 |
| test34 | sebsebseb: stop repeating yourself | 03:22 |
| adam7 | DarwinSurvivor: and the changes were mostly just to unclutter the interface so it was easier to use | 03:22 |
| sebsebseb | test34: what are you refering to? | 03:22 |
| test34 | sebsebseb: nickname | 03:22 |
| DarwinSurvivor | BlackBerry: I just google for "ubuntu karmic" and clicked the second link... | 03:22 |
| sebsebseb | test34: this has been my knickname since 2006 or so :) | 03:22 |
| ctmjr | evanescent, you can try to comment out a line in xorg.conf do not really understand what you are asking | 03:22 |
| DarwinSurvivor | adam7: ok, thanks. | 03:23 |
| evanescent | xorg.conf is empty, ctmjr | 03:23 |
| sebsebseb | test34: and it even has a little story behind it, which is of course off topic in here | 03:23 |
| SkiingPenguins | sebsebseb: is there a way to install ubuntu without using a disc? my disc drive does not like to boot from my cdrom drives. i do not think my bios can boot off of a flash drive. | 03:23 |

| test34 | sebsebseb: troll | 03:27 |
| evanescent | another version of the tutorial i found says to do sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xorg-xserver | 03:27 |
| gnat_x | masterkoppa: the one that's not working is using a fresh jaunty install | 03:27 |
| evanescent | which returns an error Package `xorg-xserver' is not installed and no info is available. | 03:27 |
| gnat_x | masterkoppa: the one that is working runs debian lenny. | 03:27 |
| sebsebseb | test34: no I think that's what your trying to do here, or just talk silly offtopic with someone for a bit, since your bored or something | 03:27 |
| masterkoppa | gnat_x: can the machine connect to any other AP? | 03:27 |
| DarwinSurvivor | adam7: dude! they added a curses interface to wicd?!! | 03:28 |
| masterkoppa | gnat_x: Just to confirm that its a WPA Problem | 03:28 |
| gnat_x | masterkoppa: there's none other around to test with sadly. | 03:28 |
| masterkoppa | Can you change the security on the router? | 03:28 |
| ctmjr | evanescent, there should be a default xorg.conf but if not you can generate one sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 03:28 |
| test34 | sebsebseb: where do you get your salvia from ? | 03:28 |
| SkiingPenguins | which ubuntu distribution do you recommend for a computer that has 128 Mb RAM and 10 Gb free hard drive space? | 03:29 |

| masterkoppa | llohan: what happened before it froze | 03:34 |
| llohan | GSF1200S: no, keyboard leads keep flashing. | 03:34 |
| moymoy | crankharder: have you tried running the binary again? it might give an option of uninstalling | 03:34 |
| GSF1200S | kernel panic | 03:34 |
| GSF1200S | hmm | 03:34 |
| llohan | masterkoppa: nothing, a few second after boot. | 03:34 |
| llohan | 2.4.27 can boot fine though. | 03:34 |
| ctmjr | crankharder, there is an uninstall script that comes with it | 03:34 |
| llohan | 2.6.27 sorry. | 03:35 |
| masterkoppa | llohan: did you upgrade the kernel or make any changes before this happened? | 03:35 |
| GSF1200S | oooohhh crap llohan- another guy had the same problem yesterday | 03:35 |
| llohan | but with 2.6.27 i always have this "unexpected IRQ trap at vector 9b" in dmesg.. | 03:35 |
| DarwinSurvivor | adam7, renic: thank you very much for recommending wicd. That curses interface is amazing and exactly what I have been looking for regarding something else. I am definitely dropping networkmanager again! | 03:35 |
| DarwinSurvivor | renic: I still have to check if the pinging problem persists | 03:36 |
| masterkoppa | llohan: whats the other kernel version, the one that frezes | 03:36 |
| test34 | sebsebseb: ok I'll take the blame this time.. but don't do it again. | 03:36 |
| llohan | masterkoppa: 2.6.28-13 | 03:36 |

| lobf | ? | 03:37 |
| llohan | masterkoppa: in recovery mode it will crash like this http://imagebin.org/56955 | 03:37 |

| rodolfo | let me check the model | 03:39 |

| * doc_brown messed up... | 03:46 | |
| qos | hey guys ... can i use a karmic kernel still in jaunty? | 03:46 |
| masterkoppa | i would recomend you try to reinstall the kernel, because I suspect there is a problem with one of the modules when the update occured. | 03:46 |
| dtchen | qos: yes, with caveats | 03:46 |
| doc_brown | how do you restore a "panel" that you may have deleted? When I minimize things, they disappear | 03:47 |
| llohan | by using --reinstall ? | 03:47 |
| bastidrazor | !panels | doc_brown | 03:47 |
| ubottu | doc_brown: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 03:47 |
| doc_brown | !moron doc_brown =( | 03:47 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:47 |
| qos | dtchen, what in special? currently i am using a mainline kernel 2.6.30.2 ... wlan is much more stable here :) | 03:48 |
| bastidrazor | doc_brown, or you could add the panel back and manually add the window selector | 03:48 |
| mechtech | test34: I executed the command you gave me...no success | 03:48 |
| qos | dtchen, but i my nvidia restricted drivers module doesn't work that way | 03:48 |
| masterkoppa | llohan: yes | 03:48 |
| mechtech | test34: still cannot launch link | 03:48 |
| dft | how can I check if which ttys my serial port was assigned to? | 03:48 |
| llohan | masterkoppa: thanks, I'm trying that. | 03:48 |
| test34 | mechtech: did you adapt it to your system ? | 03:48 |
| Romualda | holas | 03:48 |
| HayateYagami | !luser ubottu | 03:49 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about luser ubottu | 03:49 |
| qos | dtchen, so the idea was it to use a karmic kernel in the hope of working nvidia drivers and stable wlan | 03:49 |
| mechtech | test34: LOL...no...duh | 03:49 |
| dtchen | qos: you just need the hacks for i2c for the Nvidia source | 03:49 |
| test34 | mechtech: where is your .exe located ? | 03:49 |
| Romualda | ... | 03:49 |
| doc_brown | i removed that panel because it actually covers most of my wbar at the lower part of the screen. can i adjust this? | 03:49 |
| johnnyfavorite | hi | 03:49 |
| qos | dtchen, i2c? a bit more explaining please ;) | 03:49 |
| masterkoppa | llohan: If that then doesn't work I would do a downgrade to the last working version for your system. Then make a post in the kernel part of the forums since youll probably get better support there. | 03:49 |
| johnnyfavorite | aIm a newbe to ubuntu studio | 03:50 |
| dtchen | qos: are you saying your Nvidia drivers don't compile with mainline 2.6.30.2? | 03:50 |
| llohan | masterkoppa: ok, thank you very much. | 03:50 |
| masterkoppa | llohan: np, glad to be of some help | 03:50 |
| bastidrazor | doc_brown, you can .. right click it >properties>general tab then uncheck expand | 03:50 |
| llohan | i'm going to reboot once and will be back if that work, or i'll jet to my office if it doesn't, good bye. | 03:50 |
| mechtech | test34: still no luck | 03:51 |
| qos | dtchen, i didn't try to compile them on my own. i installed the new mainline kernel and at startup ubuntu was complaining about "unable to load nvidia restricted module" | 03:51 |
| test34 | mechtech: where is your .exe located ? | 03:51 |
| dtchen | qos: right, that's due to api changes | 03:51 |
| doc_brown | bastidrazor, i have something called wbar. its similar to osx "dock" at the lower portion of the screen. my "panel" overlaps it and sits on top of it | 03:51 |
| dtchen | qos: you need a newer nvidia source (e.g., from karmic) | 03:52 |
| doc_brown | wbar looks and works great without the panel, but minimized programs disappear | 03:52 |
| doc_brown | !wbar | 03:52 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about wbar | 03:52 |
| mechtech | test34: /home/leiza/.wine/dosdevices/c:/PuttPutt | 03:52 |
| bastidrazor | doc_brown, you'll either have to move the panel to the left or right vertical of the screen or get rid of the bottom panel. or .. move it up to the top under the top bar | 03:52 |
| test34 | mechtech: that doesnt sound right | 03:52 |
| qos | dtchen, so. can i simply install the nvidia-glx packages and the kernel from karmic? | 03:53 |
| Bulochnichestvo | Is there exist a plugin that encapsulates flash player plugin and displays button "GO" that enables or disables working of entire flash process? | 03:53 |
| mechtech | test34: with a link to the executable <Autozoo,exe> on the desktop | 03:53 |
| test34 | mechtech: it should be located somewhere in /media/ | 03:53 |
| bastidrazor | doc_brown, that dock .. doesn't it have active/minimized applications showing? something like cairo-dock does. | 03:53 |
| bastidrazor | doc_brown, cairo-dock actually replaces my bottom panel. | 03:53 |
| nanz | hi guys | 03:53 |
| dtchen | qos: no, you also need the kernel, kernel-headers, and other Nvidia-related packages from karmic | 03:54 |

| mechtech | test34: should i put puttputt folder in /media? | 03:57 |
| bastidrazor | Spikemcc, sudo swapoff -a will turn swap off | 03:57 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | Some typical devices that you can open on DOS or Windows are: | 03:57 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | "CON" - the console (screen) | 03:57 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | "AUX" - the serial auxiliary port | 03:57 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | "COM1" - serial port 1 | 03:57 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | "COM2" - serial port 2 | 03:57 |
| FloodBot1 | CoJaBo-Aztec: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:57 |
| CoJaBo-Aztec | "PRN" - the printer on the parallel port | 03:57 |
| qos | Spikemcc, isn't there an option to swap off an swap partition in gparted? | 03:57 |
| Spikemcc | thanks for slitaz does it is the same ? | 03:57 |
| Spikemcc | qos yes but it don't work at all | 03:57 |
| test34 | mechtech: I say that because usually if you mount the windows partition, it is in /media | 03:57 |
| nanz | do u know some guides for ubuntu first time users? not like the documentation, some raw information, not more than necessary | 03:58 |
| test34 | I might be missing something | 03:58 |
| nanz | ? | 03:58 |
| mechtech | test34: so my installation of wine is janky? | 03:58 |
| masterkoppa | nanz: Do a search for the ubuntu pocket guide | 03:58 |
| qos | so, i recommed you to try bastidrazor's command ... and refresh gparted | 03:58 |
| nanz | thx | 03:58 |
| masterkoppa | nanz: It a nice small book containing the most usefull things about ubuntu | 03:58 |
| test34 | mechtech: Im not saying that.. maybe ask #wine | 03:58 |

| test34 | mechtech: no just type: /join #wine | 04:00 |
| bastidrazor | mechtech, #winehq not wine | 04:00 |

| alex__ | MustangMatt: Then I stand by the first looks slow and the second looks average =P | 04:24 |
| MustangMatt | alex__: alright I'll quit obsessing over it then. The 2nd set of drives are actually "green" drives which run slower. | 04:25 |
| alex__ | MustangMatt: But they are WD so they are higher quality ;) | 04:25 |
| MustangMatt | alex__: debateable! ;) | 04:26 |

| Bob_Dole | gogeta, sort of. There was issues with BIOS, so they made EFI to solve them. it's a lot more feature complete. jake_ I have issues with the fans being too slow. I had to boot into OS X and set the fans on high with a third party app. the settings carried over into ubuntu. | 04:55 |

| PROject-Emerald | gogeta: I don't have a floppy drive. | 05:07 |
| bastidrazor | tester-ubuntu, adding several different repo's from other versions breaks your system. i don't know how to recover from this situation. my suggestion is a fresh install and do not add repo's that don't belond to the specific distro in the future :| | 05:08 |
| Out_Cold | ns identify I_LoVe_PuPPieS | 05:08 |
| tester-ubuntu | ok | 05:08 |
| tester-ubuntu | let me take it out and do an apt-get update | 05:08 |
| aboleth | is van just going to stay muted? | 05:08 |
| ibuclaw | aboleth, at the end of the day, perhaps pointing him at the forums would have been a better option (if he generally was asking for help) | 05:08 |
| Mkop | can anyone help me get my xfce panels back? I rebooted and they are completely gone - the task switcher at the bottom, the applications etc. menus at the top, all gone. :-( | 05:08 |

| ctmjr | jake_, been looking since your first post the only thing i could find | 05:10 |

| tester-ubuntu | dang | 05:10 |
| tester-ubuntu | so i can't install flv2dvd ? | 05:10 |
| gogeta | PROject-Emerald: got a pendrive | 05:10 |

| Mkop | but I'll take a look at ubottu's advice | 05:10 |
| aboleth | for someone so impatient van sure types slow | 05:10 |
| ibuclaw | tester-ubuntu, where did you get the deb from ? | 05:10 |
| ibuclaw | or the repository | 05:10 |
| tester-ubuntu | i didn't | 05:10 |
| jackarutu | I've got a boot problem for a newly installed OS. the Install writes the files and the grub but the systems fials to boot wiht the error "no operating system found" and the BIOS has the correct drive set at the deafult boot devise. Leaving me to beleive this is related to the fact I have hardware RAID devise for the system drive? | 05:10 |
| tester-ubuntu | apt-get install flv2dvd .. it was the wrong repo | 05:10 |
| bastidrazor | Mkop, i'm not sure ubottu's factoid will help since you're on xfce. but it may work. | 05:11 |
| tester-ubuntu | ibuclaw: im trying to convert flv files into dvd format .. i have 20 flv files | 05:11 |

| tester-ubuntu | ibuclaw: can't install lame-extras | 05:14 |
| tester-ubuntu | everything is already installed | 05:14 |
| ibuclaw | tester-ubuntu, ignore it | 05:14 |
| bastidrazor | ibuclaw, possibly backports? | 05:14 |
| ibuclaw | tester-ubuntu, if it isn't in the repos, that is probably because it is a deprecated package | 05:15 |
| bastidrazor | tester-ubuntu, ^^ | 05:15 |
| ibuclaw | ie: the files/contents of the package is in another | 05:15 |
| ibuclaw | so you needn't worry about it | 05:15 |
| tester-ubuntu | yea there has to be something out there | 05:15 |
| ibuclaw | tester-ubuntu, try out the script in the forum link I posted. | 05:16 |
| Mkop | bastidrazor: xfce4-panel brings up the panels | 05:16 |

| ibuclaw | van, we can hear you. How can we help today? | 05:17 |
| elky | van, please dont talk in all capitals. | 05:17 |
| bastidrazor | Mkop, how did you kill them in the first place? | 05:17 |
| aboleth | van can talk again? | 05:17 |
| elky | aboleth, he's promised he'll behave. | 05:17 |
| aboleth | k | 05:17 |
| aboleth | van: ill just talk here now | 05:17 |
| aboleth | van: why don't you just follow the instructions? | 05:17 |
| Mkop | bastidrazor: by mistake. things were being strange (I could switch from window to window, but couldn't type in them, for some reason) so I did a reboot, and they just didn't show up | 05:17 |
| aboleth | van: why are you angry at me, i'm the only one helping you here? | 05:18 |

| aboleth | do you guys think van is a troll? | 05:19 |
| elky | van, please stop with the caps | 05:19 |
| bastidrazor | Mkop, i'm unfamiliar with xfce. if the panels don't come back on a reboot then add xfce4-panel to sessions or startup applications.. something similiar to that. | 05:19 |
| van | SO YOU ARE COMPROMIZED TO HIT ME !!!! | 05:19 |
| van | I SEE THAT | 05:19 |

| van | WHAT ELKY ??? | 05:22 |
| MustangMatt | alex__: Maybe you are right. While the big copy was going on I fired up another session and started copying large files from the second array to the second array and read and write went through the roof. It's something with those seagate drives. | 05:22 |
| error404notfound | ibuclaw, i am using gitosis as git server management tool, and i needed to deploy web application, mainly php automatically on every commit on a server where only pub-key ssh is allowed. | 05:22 |
| jake__ | s | 05:22 |
| mazda01_ | MustangMatt: i have always had great luck with seagate drives. the great 5 year warrenty also | 05:24 |
| DVA5912 | How can i change the way my desktop icons are displayed? Like the margin between them and the side and the disance between them etc | 05:24 |
| mazda01_ | MustangMatt: just recently had to use a warranty on a 4 year old seagate 500gb hard drive | 05:24 |

| Hilikus | i uninstalled firefox-3.0 and i lost all my search engines in 3.5. any idea how to fix it? | 05:25 |
| mazda01_ | DVA5912: not sure but you can change the apperance in system, prefs, appearance | 05:25 |
| MustangMatt | mazda01_: I have as well, but for some reason they are grossly underperforming for me right now. | 05:25 |
| ibuclaw | error404notfound, and www-data was the owner of the directory containing the files/applications. hence sudo -u. | 05:25 |
| mazda01_ | Hilikus: do you still have a folder in your home directory named firefox-3.5? | 05:25 |
| mazda01_ | Hil, i mean firefox? sorry | 05:25 |
| mordocai | Hello, i am currently playing Warcraft 3 under wine. I can play it perfectly once per an x session, however, if i try to start it again it gives me an error about there not being CD. If i log out and log back in, it works... any idea how to fix this? The only thing mentioned on appdb.wine.org is that the cd error can be a video driver problem. | 05:25 |
| error404notfound | ibuclaw, yes, but then i would need to add git to do passwless sudo for www-data, and allow www-data to clone the dir | 05:25 |
| iDonkey | mazda01, You mean mozilla/firefox-3.5. ;) | 05:26 |
| mazda01_ | Hilikus: it would be ~/.mozilla/firefox/ | 05:26 |
| Hilikus | mazda01: actually no | 05:26 |
| rebel | is there a way to check SATA link speeds in ubuntu? | 05:26 |
| Hilikus | but the rest of my settings seem alrgiht | 05:26 |
| mazda01_ | iDonkey: no, i mean firefox. he uninstalled firefox 3.0 and and he wants all his preferences, so he would need to transfer all those files in firefox to firefox-3.5 | 05:26 |
| Hilikus | even my tabs session was the same | 05:26 |
| mazda01_ | rebel: hdparm should be able to check the speeds. | 05:27 |

| c0m3awn | what happened to my nic completion????? | 05:28 |
| an0nmat1r | thanx i got that | 05:28 |
| Hilikus | mazda01: it looks like 3.5 wasn't saving my settings there cause everything else looks the same | 05:28 |
| iDonkey | c0m3aw, what? | 05:28 |
| rebel | mazda01: do you know which flag to run it with? | 05:28 |
| ibuclaw | error404notfound, well, what I posted should have supplemented that. at least, from my knowledge of sudoers configuring, it should do. Privilege escalation is the only thing that you may get trouble from it. | 05:28 |
| c0m3awn | great... | 05:28 |
| aboleth | van is obviously a troll | 05:28 |
| rebel | mazda01_: do you know which flag to run it with? | 05:28 |

| redvamp128 | The main heading in the article it links to there is no issue with it- link works just strange looking (in the article it appears to be -- but close together) | 05:37 |

| rww | zerothis: I imagine you might want to recommend the desktop guide from 9.04, not 6.06 :) | 05:50 |
| zerothis | rww: oops, sorry | 05:51 |
| gogeta | an0nmat1r: well 192mb is for install and compiz but it can be used of lesser machines | 05:51 |
| JPeterson | Did I do something wrong with the package manager, the latest FontForge package I see is hardy from 2007 http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=fontforge | 05:51 |
| gogeta | on | 05:51 |
| JPeterson | But on the website there are sevearl newer | 05:51 |
| JPeterson | I have Reloaded the package list | 05:51 |
| gogeta | an0nmat1r: i would use xbuntu on a low end machine | 05:51 |
| zerothis | odlaner: <https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/newtoubuntu/C/index.html> better place to start with a new ubuntu | 05:51 |
| an0nmat1r | ya i just red that! great job at it :) | 05:51 |
| Amarst | Has anyone made a web front end for tracker in ubuntu? | 05:52 |
| gogeta | an0nmat1r: lol linux can run on any pc even a 396sx | 05:52 |
| gogeta | 18386 | 05:52 |
| gogeta | lol | 05:52 |
| an0nmat1r | i am planning for xubuntu.. cant decide.. xen works on xubuntu too right ? | 05:52 |
| gogeta | an0nmat1r: text linuc on a 286 | 05:52 |
| gogeta | lol | 05:52 |
| rww | JPeterson: nope, that's correct, it's from November, 2007. Considering that Hardy came out in April, 2008, that's not a huge time ago. | 05:52 |
| odlaner | zerothis: the page link didn't work | 05:52 |
| zerothis | gogeta: and it can count to infinity, atleast 2 and a half times | 05:53 |
| gogeta | an0nmat1r: yes its just a lighter window manager | 05:53 |
| an0nmat1r | gogeta: ya i know that.. i just got a copy of fedora 11 that requires 1gb of ram | 05:53 |
| rww | JPeterson: (once a version of Ubuntu is released, the package maintainers don't upgrade packages in it to new major versions, to avoid introducing new bugs) | 05:53 |
| an0nmat1r | leonardo! | 05:53 |
| JPeterson | So Hardy is my Ubuntu version? | 05:53 |
| zerothis | try this one http://library.gnome.org/users/user-guide/stable/index.html.en | 05:53 |

| edit | hello | 05:54 |
| gogeta | lol | 05:54 |

| gogeta | an0nmat1r: then donate them | 05:54 |
| dew | hello. just installed ubuntu on my lap top. Am having issues with it. I can not open any applications and the pointer laggs. any sugestion? | 05:54 |
| JPeterson | Okay, so I need to either install a second Ubunty with karmic or install the program myself? | 05:54 |
| an0nmat1r | :) sure gogeta | 05:54 |
| redvamp128 | rww: he may want to also try cat /etc/lsb-release | 05:55 |
| odlaner | that one seems to be working | 05:55 |
| rww | JPeterson: correct | 05:55 |
| rww | redvamp128: lsb_release -a reads from /etc/lsb-release. | 05:55 |
| gogeta | an0nmat1r: hey poor people like pcs to | 05:55 |
| JPeterson | rww: Okay, thanks, I have hardy, I understand | 05:55 |
| odlaner | thanks, I'm bookmarking it | 05:55 |
| JPeterson | It's alomst easier for me to add a new VMWare installation and just use the package manager than compile programs | 05:56 |

| b__ | My desktop is running Ubuntu, my laptop is running DSL.... both connected to the same router. How do I introduce the two so they can be friends? | 06:37 |
| Flannel | b__: friends? | 06:37 |
| emily | depends on what type of friends you want them to be! | 06:38 |
| b__ | file sharing and such | 06:38 |
| codyxx | bazhang, I can't even right click on my desktop. Ic an do nothing on it. I can't type commands, I can't open any programs, nothing. Just my background appears. | 06:38 |
| emily | you can do that with ssh pretty simple really | 06:38 |
| sebsebseb | yohean oh turns out I was wrong and you can do it | 06:38 |
| jahc | legend2440: yes.. but they seem corrupted.. its possible they were corrupted on the camera already | 06:38 |
| yohean | sebsebseb, thank you | 06:38 |
| yohean | legend2440, thank you | 06:39 |
| b__ | Alright where do I start with SSH? | 06:39 |
| bazhang | codyxx, have you either tried creating a new user, or starting up in recovery mode and fixing things | 06:39 |
| Flannel | !nfs | b__ | 06:39 |
| ubottu | b__: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 06:39 |
| emily | but if you want fast you need to set up nfs and export out the dirs. if you want to go stupid, you could set up a ciffs server or samba..make it look like a windows box..but then it will basically suck | 06:39 |
| codyxx | Yep | 06:39 |
| sebsebseb | yohean: np | 06:40 |
| emily | b__ install ssh package | 06:40 |
| codyxx | Well not a new user | 06:40 |
| bazhang | codyxx, yep to the new user? | 06:40 |
| emily | if its not already on the machine | 06:40 |
| emily | install the server for ssh on both of the boxes. | 06:40 |
| b__ | What's the difference in ssh and nfs? | 06:40 |
| emily | ssh is encrypted tunnell...you can do anthing through ssh. | 06:40 |
| Flannel | b__: ssh allows you to use a remote shell, nfs is a filesystem thing. | 06:40 |
| emily | it will even allow you to run the apps on the other box...from your machine | 06:41 |
| b__ | So ssh is more useful | 06:41 |
| emily | verymuch so | 06:41 |
| b__ | nfs is easier? | 06:41 |
| emily | all remote admin is done via ssh.. | 06:41 |
| emily | no | 06:41 |
| Flannel | b__: They accomplish different things. | 06:41 |
| === unforgiven512_ is now known as unforgiven512 | ||
| sebsebseb | b__: and if you want to see and control the desktop you can use vnc or freenx | 06:41 |
| emily | ssh is easyest..but its all encrypted..so it is slower.. | 06:41 |
| emily | for a file server or movie center...you would want to use nfs. | 06:42 |
| sebsebseb | b__: and you don't need to do VNC over SSH over a LAN | 06:42 |
| dew | hey guys ubuntu wont run pass log in | 06:42 |
| sebsebseb | !vnc | b__ | 06:42 |
| ubottu | b__: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 06:42 |
| Lynx-O | anyone else having issues with the new firefox? | 06:42 |
| emily | ya you can do anything over ssh. | 06:42 |
| emily | Lynx-O: none | 06:43 |
| Lynx-O | it freezes alot | 06:43 |
| Lynx-O | i dunno | 06:43 |
| Lynx-O | >.> | 06:43 |
| emily | not on my machines | 06:43 |
| Lynx-O | and its called shieretoko | 06:43 |
| Lynx-O | or something like that | 06:43 |
| Lynx-O | after i installed it | 06:44 |
| b__ | So is vnc faster than nfs? | 06:44 |
| losher | b__: confused yet? I would be... | 06:44 |
| b__ | getting there | 06:44 |
| sebsebseb | b__: vnc isn' for sharing files, it's for showing desktops | 06:44 |
| jahc | how do I find out what /dev/sda* my /home dir is on? | 06:44 |
| jahc | I want to run scalpel on it | 06:44 |
| emily | vnc is not nfs | 06:44 |
| emily | vnc is like rdp for linux | 06:45 |
| emily | nfs is for file shareing. | 06:45 |
| b__ | can you drag and drop with vncviewer? | 06:45 |
| b__ | cuz that would be amazing | 06:45 |
| sebsebseb | b__: it's not for file sharing | 06:45 |
| emily | if you are going to put all your movies in the house on one server you would use an nfs server | 06:45 |
| emily | no but you can with nfs | 06:45 |
| emily | and more importantly you can with ssh | 06:46 |
| losher | jahc: sudo df -h /home | 06:46 |
| sebsebseb | and you can with samba as well, Linu to Linux even | 06:46 |
| sebsebseb | !samba | 06:46 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 06:46 |
| emily | do you have ssh server installed on your bozes yet? | 06:46 |
| emily | samba sucks | 06:46 |
| emily | do you have the ssh servers installed yet | 06:46 |
| sebsebseb | emily: well kind of since the link to Microsoft, but have you got any other reason? | 06:46 |
| emily | yep servera | 06:47 |
| sebsebseb | emily: such as? | 06:48 |
| b__ | yes ssh is installed on both | 06:48 |
| emily | first of smb protocol chokes on 2gig+files...so you have to use the cifs protocol...second the 30000 dollar file servers i use at work...charge an amazing amount of lisc for nfs lisc..you know why...because nfs over copper is faster than even fiber. | 06:48 |
| emily | and the nfs you use on linux systems is the same thing as the nfs used by netapp fillers. | 06:49 |
| emily | and trust me..those people know what they are doing | 06:49 |
| mr_steve | The good part about SSH is that you can connect to another machine from the Places menu in Gnome, and it Just Works(TM) | 06:49 |
| b__ | so how do I connect them with ssh? | 06:50 |
| emily | dont argue with me on this...its ssh for simple things...its nfs if things are large or need to be moved fast. end of story. you only use smb or cifs if you have to share windows file systems. | 06:50 |
| emily | ok now this is the difficult part | 06:50 |
| emily | open a file browser window...like your home dir | 06:50 |
| yohean | how do i change my username in ubuntu? | 06:50 |
| sebsebseb | emily: argue with you about this I think not, you really seem to know your stuff :) | 06:50 |
| b__ | file browser... | 06:51 |
| b__ | then | 06:51 |
| emily | then click on the paper and pencil icon in the upper left hand cornner so you can enter in a path manually | 06:51 |
| losher | yohean: did the link from legend not work? | 06:51 |
| b__ | yup | 06:52 |
| emily | then put in ssh://yourusername@yourothermachinesipaddress | 06:52 |
| emily | and press enter...replace those values with ..well what they say... | 06:52 |
| emily | do you follow? | 06:52 |

| deagle_ | how do I stop xorg from running? | 06:53 |
| emily | then your username or password on the other machine is wrong | 06:53 |
| deagle_ | i need to install nvidia drivers | 06:53 |
| emily | you need to use a username and password for an account on the other machine. | 06:53 |
| emily | so do you have a user on the other machine? | 06:53 |
| b__ | yes | 06:54 |
| b__ | only one | 06:54 |
| b__ | plus root | 06:54 |

| emily | dont use root..it has no pasword | 06:55 |
| deagle_ | emily: stop, not restart :P | 06:55 |
| b__ | check | 06:55 |
| emily | b__: try again with that username and make sure ou have the ipaddress correct as well | 06:55 |
| u-man | I have a black three inch border along my screen, and a one inch border along the bottom, this happened when installed Jaunty | 06:55 |
| mr_steve | deagle_: Switch to a virtual console with Ctrl-Alt-F2 or so, login and do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 06:56 |
| Lynx-O | that a no? | 06:56 |
| u-man | has anyone run into this? | 06:56 |
| b__ | yeah ip address was it, hold on | 06:56 |

| deagle_ | mr_steve: i kept trying to do just: sudo gdm stop | 06:57 |
| deagle_ | but it would restart | 06:57 |
| deagle_ | :D 10x | 06:57 |
| emily | b__: man ssh when you get a chance...its how most of the world works now. | 06:57 |

| Nikkos_ | anyone have any ideas? | 07:00 |
| === Nikkos_ is now known as Nikkos | ||
| u-man | Nikkos, checked your driver? | 07:00 |
| Nikkos | how can i do that? | 07:00 |
| robin_ | probably a driver problem | 07:00 |
| u-man | device manager | 07:01 |
| u-man | monitor issues anyone? | 07:01 |
| u-man | like an off center screen? | 07:01 |
| emily | b__: try this (it will give you a woody) fire up a terminal type this. ssh -X user@ipaddressgoeshere | 07:01 |
| bullgard4 | How can I establish if Avahi works in my Ubuntu LAN? | 07:02 |
| emily | then put in your password when prompted, then type firefox and press enter | 07:02 |
| emily | you will be running firefox on the other machine but seeing it on this machine... | 07:02 |
| Lynx-O | anyone here know how I would play movies from my laptop on my PS3 and Xbox 360 via my network? | 07:03 |
| emily | remote execution of X applications | 07:03 |
| u-man | I know Avahi does not work with public.domains, at least not on my laptop | 07:03 |
| Kirann | Lynx-O: PS3MediaServer will do the trick. http://code.google.com/p/ps3mediaserver/ | 07:03 |
| u-man | I can turn my screen sideways and upside down, but it is off center and reduced | 07:04 |
| b__ | okay now I get connection refused instead of access denied | 07:04 |
| emily | you need to install something on the other machine but do not want to get up and walk into the livingroom...or to iceland...its all the same..fire thatup and run aptitude ...or synaptic. you can maintain the machine from anywhere in the world that way. | 07:04 |
| b__ | do I have to do it on both | 07:04 |
| akSeya | i did my NIC configurations on /etc/network/interfaces but the just don't work when I do a /etc/init.d/networking restart ... using ubuntu 9.04 ... what's going on here? | 07:04 |
| u-man | when i connect a separate monitor, it is ok and fills screen. | 07:04 |
| emily | you have to have an ssh server running..thats it | 07:04 |
| sebsebseb | b__: ssh is one thing, but that's only the termianl | 07:04 |
| sebsebseb | b__: if you want to see the desktop and use graphical apps and such, vnc and freenx | 07:05 |
| b__ | I like terminal better | 07:05 |
| b__ | I grew up on dos | 07:05 |
| u-man | o me | 07:05 |
| Lynx-O | Kirann: got a converter by chance? | 07:05 |
| u-man | monitor ist kaput | 07:05 |
| emily | linux is your friend then | 07:05 |
| sebsebseb | b__: ok you like the shell more | 07:05 |
| emily | an nix really | 07:05 |
| b__ | I can do the vncviewer thing quite easily | 07:05 |
| Kirann | Lynx-O: converter for ? | 07:05 |
| u-man | monitor ist pokenfinger | 07:05 |
| sebsebseb | b__: and tunnel it over SSH? when using it on The Intenret? | 07:05 |
| emily | actually b..if you have a vncserver running on the second machine.. | 07:05 |
| sebsebseb | b__: so it's secure | 07:06 |
| Lynx-O | so its in format for ps3 and xbox... | 07:06 |
| u-man | maybe that is why they call it "Jaunty" | 07:06 |
| === hannes3|N8 is now known as Hannes3 | ||
| Lynx-O | Kirann: i used to use tversity in windows... | 07:06 |

| Nikkos | hey so i ran Hardware Drivers under System>Administration and nothing happened | 07:06 |
| Nikkos | any other ideas? | 07:06 |
| Lynx-O | it transcoded as it played | 07:06 |

| richardcavell | anyone here use Intel GMA 950 chipset? Driver support is awful under Jaunty.. anyone got any fixes? | 07:11 |
| losher | u-man: Although I don't know how to do it, I would be surprised if there aren't settings in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file you can tweak to adjust x and y offsets of the screen. | 07:11 |
| bullgard4 | u-man: Your answer is not precise enough for me. | 07:11 |
| u-man | since no one knows about my subject ubottu can i have your phone #? | 07:11 |
| u-man | Bull, bout as close as I can get it man, sorry | 07:12 |
| u-man | Losher, I saw some posts on that | 07:12 |
| u-man | looked pretty complex stuff | 07:12 |
| emily | richardcavell: dont use jaunty | 07:12 |
| emily | use the lts | 07:12 |
| akSeya | how to check which services are run on startup? | 07:12 |
| richardcavell | emily: I'm prepared to regress if I know that it will fix my issues | 07:13 |
| bullgard4 | u-man: Thank you for your response. | 07:13 |
| losher | u-man: yes, xorg.conf is a bitch, but if you need it, you need it. Start reading docs... | 07:13 |
| u-man | akseya: the startup folder | 07:13 |
| richardcavell | emily: Are you using it and can you confirm that it fixes things? | 07:13 |
| emily | personally ive found the lts has the most reliable support. | 07:13 |
| u-man | Losher: I like your style | 07:13 |
| u-man | first. how do I access it? | 07:13 |
| soreau | owner: How did you install it? | 07:13 |
| Nikkos_ | ok i dont think its in network settings | 07:13 |
| emily | its rock solid..you cant shut the server down with a shotgun. | 07:13 |
| Nikkos_ | and it keeps asking me for the password over and over | 07:14 |
| owner | Well, I went to the Vidalia homepage | 07:14 |
| owner | Read that I had to install it using a terminal | 07:14 |
| u-man | akseya: the startup manager in System/Administration | 07:14 |
| Nikkos_ | like every 3 minutes, but it has the old password already typed in, but ecnrypted | 07:14 |
| akSeya | u-man, any command? i just prefer command line | 07:14 |
| owner | So...I copied and pasted the code from the Vidalia homepage into the terminal window | 07:14 |
| owner | Response; invalid command | 07:14 |
| richardcavell | emily: I can easily crash Jaunty in wine | 07:15 |
| owner | Soooooooooooo, I read more carefully | 07:15 |
| u-man | no command go to System/Administration/startup folder | 07:15 |
| soreau | owner: Just use apt to install it | 07:15 |
| owner | And now think I need to install some of the code in the preface of the page...which I didn't think applied at first | 07:15 |
| owner | I tried that, it didn't work | 07:15 |
| u-man | sorry startup Manager | 07:15 |
| owner | It installs, but it doesn't run | 07:15 |
| owner | And the Vidalia homepage says don't use the APT as its not maintained | 07:16 |
| owner | It installs, and the Vidalia control panel comes up...but it doesn't work | 07:16 |
| BellinXFelon | i am having trouble with rhythmbox music player, it won't recognize a cd when i put it in | 07:16 |
| owner | My guess is that I need to install the code in the preface of the Vidalia homepage for Debian... | 07:17 |
| owner | Soon as I figure out how...lol | 07:17 |
| soreau | owner: Do you get any output when running it from your terminal? | 07:17 |
| BellinXFelon | anyone have a suggestion for a good media player/manager? | 07:17 |
| soreau | BellinXFelon: totem is installed by default but I'd recommend mplayer or even vlc | 07:18 |
| owner | Hmm...well don't think I have tried running it from terminal...after installing Vidalia from APT...I just went to internet>vidalia> control panel pops us | 07:18 |
| BellinXFelon | soreau : i am looking for something to build a cd collection, something that can rip cd's and organize them | 07:18 |
| soreau | BellinXFelon: acidrip? | 07:19 |

| nomad77 | owner: this is unofficial but good info http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Jaunty | 07:27 |
| owner | After reading the doc, I can't think of anything other than AMD 64 incompatibility being the issue with my vid | 07:27 |
| losher | akSeya: which version OS and what runlevel are you at? | 07:27 |
| nomad77 | owner: codecs aren't all default | 07:27 |
| emily | also for official release...click this button hundreds of times | 07:27 |
| emily | http://www.petitiononline.com/sclinux/petition.html | 07:27 |
| akSeya | losher, ubuntu 9.04 Runlevel 2 | 07:27 |
| losher | akSeya: the echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward is probably easiest done by putting it into /etc/rc.local | 07:28 |
| b__ | When I run "$ ssh localhost" on desktop it works, but on my other box it gives "port 22: Connection refused" ...help? | 07:28 |
| dahlia | what is pulse-session? | 07:28 |
| owner | Does that mean the codec I installed from symaptic are not sufficient? | 07:28 |
| emily | if you send me 1000 dollars ill teach you how to write php pages that use curl to press it all day and night thousands of times an hour | 07:28 |
| owner | Guess it does... | 07:28 |
| nomad77 | dahlia: pulse-audio | 07:28 |
| akSeya | losher, ok.. already there now | 07:28 |
| linux | do i need netbook version to get ubuntu on my psp? | 07:28 |
| error404notfound | ? | 07:28 |
| dahlia | do I need it if I use alsa? | 07:28 |
| emily | b__: sounds like there is no server on it | 07:29 |
| owner | Nevertheless, I love the open office | 07:29 |
| losher | akSeya: re: the nic stuff, are you sure nothing loads it. A syntax error in your interfaces file will make it look like it's not loading. What happens when you run sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart by hand? | 07:29 |
| akSeya | losher, iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.rules there too or is there a "beautifull" way? | 07:29 |
| emily | also b__ are you putting the user name on that as well... | 07:29 |
| emily | ? | 07:29 |
| akSeya | losher, nothing happens.. leme check again | 07:30 |
| losher | akSeya: running it from rc.local is beautiful enough for me... | 07:30 |
| b__ | yes it works in one direction | 07:30 |
| emily | the server has to be installed on both boxes | 07:30 |
| nomad77 | dahlia: normally but depends on your setup.alsa uses pulse-audio iirc altho it works standalone too. or rather pulse-audio can use alsa | 07:30 |
| emily | if you want it to go the other way the server has to be installed on the other box as well | 07:30 |
| dahlia | ty nomad77 | 07:31 |
| emily | its a werid thing and ill never understand why but all distros that are debian based no longer install the ssh server by default. (ever since version etch of debian) | 07:31 |
| akSeya | losher, my eth0 just do not goes up | 07:32 |
| nomad77 | dahlia: gnome-2.2.6 default uses pulse-audio so ubuntu does | 07:32 |
| b__ | right I'll get on that later, that's it... I'm all shhed out.... Guiness? Why yes I think I would like one. Bye. | 07:32 |
| Flannel | emily: Because most people don't need ssh sitting on their machine, and, especially when they aren't aware of it, it's a potential security risk. | 07:32 |
| emily | so you have to install the server manually. (this means via apt-get, aptitude, synaptic(for you freaks that have to have nice fonts and werid windows around things) | 07:32 |
| dahlia | Im using 64 bit and I'm trying to get sound out of the secondlife viewer, which needs alsa I thing | 07:32 |
| losher | akSeya: well, if it doesn't work by hand, it certainly won't work at boot time. Any relevant-looking error messages in /var/log ? | 07:32 |
| dahlia | *think | 07:33 |
| pingvini | hey, I have a sound problem in skype. my microphone needs boost, I don't know how to do it. | 07:33 |

| pheonix | hi i want do debug a code using gvim, can it be done | 07:33 |
| emily | sorry...that was a canned response | 07:33 |
| akSeya | losher, got it.. it was my mistake all the time... | 07:33 |
| akSeya | losher, I was missing auto eth0 on interfaces file | 07:34 |
| losher | akSeya: cool... | 07:34 |
| emily | just out of curiostie have you tried to bf a debian based distro before? | 07:34 |

| losher | akSeya: a pleasure | 07:34 |
| jerc | bye every body fuck | 07:35 |
| Flannel | jerc: Please mind your language. | 07:35 |
| akSeya | losher, anyway.. if I want to check what services are starting at boot, so I can disable unused ones.. | 07:35 |
| Flannel | emily: Not sure where you're going with this, but I'd love to have this discussion in #ubuntu-offtopic, as this channel isn't the place for it. | 07:35 |
| emily | im hitting the sac...flannel as far as a secutity risk...the alternatives are scarry. | 07:35 |
| Gnea | pheonix: gvim can be used for debugging purposes | 07:35 |
| akSeya | losher, isn't it possible from command line? | 07:35 |
| Flannel | emily: you're right. not running ssh is *so* harmful. | 07:36 |
| emily | hahahah.. | 07:36 |
| losher | akSeya: basically I think everything in runlevel 2 is started from /etc/rc2.d... | 07:36 |
| emily | you got a machine without it? | 07:36 |
| * Gnea wonders what "bf a debian distro" means | 07:36 | |

| losher | Gnea: emily: I wondered that too. What does 'to bf' mean? | 07:38 |
| akSeya | losher, how about that update-rc.d ? does it plays with this symlinks? | 07:38 |
| * Gnea double checks.. yup, 6 goes with 6 | 07:38 | |
| Gnea | losher: random looney | 07:38 |

| Gnea | therealpxc: just add a file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ that contains the directory and run sudo ldconfig | 07:42 |
| pheonix | Gnea: How ? | 07:42 |
| therealpxc | jitu3485: try this: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure usplash-theme-ubuntu" | 07:42 |
| therealpxc | Gnea: thanks! | 07:42 |
| Gnea | pheonix: well first of all, you need to know how to read source code. do you know how to do that? or write it? | 07:42 |
| ilya_ | How can i connect through `pppconfig' to /dev/rfcomm0? | 07:43 |
| Gnea | therealpxc: cheers | 07:43 |

| artillerytx | Hey guys how do i install a driver for a Broadcom NIC? | 07:45 |
| Gnea | pheonix: k, you'll need to re-state your question then, because, as you asked it, it makes no real sense | 07:45 |
| artillerytx | someone said something about using the .sys file from dells website | 07:45 |
| Gnea | therealpxc: awesome | 07:45 |
| losher | akSeya: sorry, my attention wandered. Yes, update-rc.d changes the symlinks. You used to have to set them by hand. Check the man page | 07:46 |
| therealpxc | artillerytx: if you want to use the Windows drivers, there's a tool called ndiswrapper that uses the Windows .sys file | 07:46 |

| losher | !ask | sinan | 07:47 |
| ubottu | sinan: 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. :-) | 07:47 |
| sinan | Does Ubuntu have some restrictions against "dangerous" countries like Kuba, Iran... ? | 07:47 |
| Boohbah | artillerytx: USB thumb drive transport? | 07:47 |
| artillerytx | Boohbah: how would i do that exactly ? | 07:47 |
| therealpxc | artillerytx: How are you connected right now? Or is this a different machine? I remember almost a year ago using NDISwrapper for Broadcom wifi drivers, but AFAIK Ubuntu will handle the drivers automatically for you now. It does need an inet connection though. | 07:47 |
| artillerytx | therealpxc: different machine os x | 07:48 |
| Boohbah | artillerytx: download the files you need using your working computer, copy to thumb drive, mount thumb drive on no-net computer, profit! | 07:48 |
| therealpxc | artillerytx: Try getting a wired connection on that laptop, and running Jockey (Hardware drivers in the system menu), or manually run "gksu jockey-gtk" | 07:48 |
| artillerytx | Boohbah: but where can i get the drivers | 07:48 |
| sinan | A linux distro developer said me that | 07:48 |
| artillerytx | therealpxc: it is wired its actually a server | 07:49 |
| mataks | i need help | 07:49 |
| Boohbah | artillerytx: search for your exact chipset as output by 'lspci' or 'lsusb' | 07:49 |
| artillerytx | Boohbah: i have and i can't find anything | 07:49 |
| losher | sinan: the US government has export restrictions on certain software to certain countries. I haven't kept up with the details. And the US isn't the only country that matters (but don't tell them that) | 07:49 |
| Gnea | sinan: as a general rule of thumb, no, although acts and methods of terrorism and the mis-treatment of others are thoroughly discouraged here. | 07:50 |
| mataks | i have a fresh install ubuntu 9.4 somehow my resolution is too low.. can someone help me.. newbie here | 07:50 |
| artillerytx | Boohbah: i found the drivers on dells website but i don't know how to apply them to ubuntu | 07:50 |
| therealpxc | artillerytx: The wired broadcom ethernet doesn't work? Weird weird. You can definitely get it to work, but if I were you I'd just buy another freaking Ethernet card for your server. Depends on if you have more time or money. :-P | 07:50 |
| captaincrook | soreau i've just edited my xorg.conf file... it was blank... gonna try it now... | 07:50 |

| artillerytx | therealpxc: i just got this server today and wanted to try and get it running but i will take whatever help i can get since its not working correctly | 07:53 |
| therealpxc | artillerytx: I think ndiswrapper is only designed for Wifi | 07:54 |
| therealpxc | artillerytx: Are you at all familiar with Linux networking utilities/commands? | 07:55 |
| linux | im thinking im suppose to create a root file on the memory stick duo so when psp loads it recognize the new file | 07:55 |
| losher | sinan: you are correct, such decisions are usually not made by the distro, except note that some distros do deliberately exclude software that has copyright or licensing issues. | 07:55 |
| Boohbah | artillerytx: can you provide a link to the drivers you are using? | 07:55 |
| ilya_ | Can I dial up from the Mini CD? | 07:56 |

| sinan | losher: And he said the mono issue | 07:58 |

| Gnea | no problem. any results? | 09:09 |
| ikonia | Neroon: what was the first step you did | 09:09 |
| csaba_ | gnea: what is next? | 09:09 |
| gartral | Neroon: have you considered asking in the appropriate channel? | 09:09 |
| ashish | hi to all | 09:09 |
| Gnea | csaba_: sudo netstat -nap | grep 901 should get something like this, if it's set right: tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:901 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 11369/xinetd | 09:09 |
| Neroon | ikonia: No matter if i try to do a 'make' or a 'make clean' i get the same error. And there is no configure file | 09:10 |
| Neroon | gartral: And that would be which one? | 09:10 |
| ikonia | Neroon: what is the application you are trying to build | 09:10 |
| Neroon | ikonia: The ov511 driver for my webcam, since the builtin from ubuntu doesnt work with skype | 09:10 |
| Spikemcc | what is the best windows manager or desktop manager for a mid-user on linux ? more lightweight than full of options please ... openbox and lxde seem well but you may be have better in store for me ... | 09:11 |
| ikonia | Neroon: please provide me with the link where you downloaded it | 09:11 |
| csaba_ | gnea: I do not see it | 09:11 |
| ikonia | !poll | Spikemcc | 09:11 |
| ubottu | Spikemcc: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 09:11 |
| Rupp | I guess I won't ask my question then lol. | 09:11 |
| csaba_ | http://localhost:901/ does not work | 09:11 |
| Neroon | ikonia: http://ovcam.org/ov511/download/2.xx/distros/ov511-2.32.tar.bz2 and the patch for it: http://gingedas.net/files/ov511_2.32_skype_patch.txt | 09:11 |

| pseudO | Does anyone here know how to create IPv6 IP's and is willing to help me out.. I'm new at it | 09:12 |
| Neroon | ikonia: But I got the feeling, the prob is somewhere in a missing kernel package | 09:12 |
| ikonia | Neroon: I've just downloaded it and built it in abot 15 seconds | 09:12 |
| ikonia | Neroon: it's nothing to do with a missing kernel package | 09:13 |
| ikonia | Neroon: it sounds like you don't have a make file or are in the wrong directory | 09:13 |
| Neroon | ikonia: I know, that it works, since I compiled it a year ago on my old pc | 09:13 |
| alien | hi back.. well actually the "update-rc.d tor remove" you give me do not work i still have to do "sudo /etc/init.d/tor stop" to let vidalia control tor... | 09:13 |
| Neroon | ikonia: the makefile is there | 09:13 |
| csaba_ | gnea: yes | 09:13 |
| ikonia | Neroon: I didn't say it didn't work, I said it sound like your missing the Makefile or you are in the wrong directory | 09:13 |
| csaba_ | it is now asking login and pass | 09:13 |
| ikonia | Neroon: it's just built for me fine | 09:13 |
| Neroon | ikonia: Pretty sure, I'm in the right dir | 09:13 |
| telmich | hello | 09:14 |
| Gnea | csaba_: okay, need an administrator login | 09:14 |
| ikonia | Neroon: not rule for make means it can't see the make file | 09:14 |
| th0r | alien: did you use sudo update-rc.d tor remove' | 09:14 |
| ikonia | Neroon: most likley | 09:14 |
| telmich | on my x200 with ubuntu 9.04 sound playing does not work - what's the right way to debug it? | 09:14 |
| alien | yes | 09:14 |
| gartral | Neroon: locate make | grep -i <project name here> | 09:14 |
| csaba_ | gnea: I am in | 09:14 |
| Gnea | csaba_: okay, take a look around (and check the advanced tabs while you're at it) | 09:15 |
| gartral | Neroon: there may be several make files... | 09:15 |
| ikonia | gartral: that's not going to work unless it's in a locate cached directory | 09:15 |
| Neroon | gartral: Nothing at all | 09:15 |
| ikonia | Neroon: ls -la | grep Makefile | 09:15 |
| ikonia | Neroon: in your current directory | 09:15 |
| Neroon | ikonia: Lists the one makefile | 09:15 |
| * gartral is used too one hard drive... under IDE... | 09:15 | |
| ikonia | Neroon: please show me the output of that command | 09:16 |
| csaba_ | gnea: advanced tabs? which ones are those? | 09:16 |
| Neroon | -rw-r--r-- 1 name name 3677 2008-07-07 20:01 Makefile | 09:16 |

| csaba_ | like: home, globals, shares..... | 09:17 |
| ikonia | Neroon: make -f Makefile | 09:17 |
| Gnea | csaba_: so click on them, take a look around... | 09:18 |
| Neroon | ikonia: No rule to make target | 09:18 |
| csaba_ | ok, but no simple and advanced | 09:18 |
| ikonia | Neroon: re-unpack it and try to make it before adding the patch | 09:18 |
| Gnea | csaba_: give it time... | 09:18 |

| Neroon | ikonia: Maybe ark messed it up while unpacking? | 09:20 |
| th0r | Leoneof: I have the same chipset...got it to work using ndiswrapper | 09:20 |
| magnetron | Leoneof: try running the "hardware drivers" tool. it may be already detected | 09:20 |
| dew | ikonia what the minimum reqirements for 9.04? | 09:20 |
| ikonia | Neroon: what happens when you do "amek clean" | 09:20 |
| Kartagis | a week ago I attempted to change the WM login sound, but it defaults even though I see the new sound's name. do I need to mv the sound file /usr/ maybe? | 09:20 |
| ikonia | dew: they are listed on ubuntu.com | 09:21 |
| Leoneof | th0r, which the driver you installed? | 09:21 |
| dew | ikonia k | 09:21 |
| Gnea | csaba_: excellent | 09:21 |
| Leoneof | magnetron , it is not detected | 09:21 |
| Neroon | ikonia: Already said, make clean or make produces the same error | 09:21 |
| Kartagis | !ndisrwapper | Leoneof | 09:21 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ndisrwapper | 09:21 |
| Kartagis | !ndiswapper | Leoneof | 09:21 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ndiswapper | 09:21 |
| AdvoWork | if i do route add -net .......... where does that entry get added to? | 09:21 |
| th0r | Leoneof: I think I used the winxp driver with ndiswrapper | 09:21 |
| Leoneof | Kartagis , i used ndiswrapper , but which driver i must use? | 09:21 |
| csaba_ | gnea: what's next? | 09:21 |
| Kartagis | Leoneof, google for it | 09:22 |
| magnetron | Leoneof: you need to follow the whole instructions i give you. did you run "hardware drivers" or not? | 09:22 |
| Leoneof | th0r , u used the driver that came with ur Card? | 09:22 |
| ikonia | Neroon: open the Makefile and do a search for "clean:" without the speech marks | 09:22 |
| Gnea | csaba_: did you find the log level? | 09:22 |
| th0r | Leoneof: right, the windows xp driver off the cd. Use ndiswrapper to install it | 09:22 |
| Kartagis | "atheros ar5523 linux" | 09:22 |
| csaba_ | not yet | 09:22 |
| Leoneof | magnetron , yes i used hardware drivers, but it is empty | 09:22 |
| dew | ikonia whats the min cpu? | 09:23 |
| Leoneof | th0r , my driver is setup.exe , i cannot open with WinRar , it is need to install , how? | 09:23 |
| ikonia | dew: the details are listed on the website | 09:23 |
| csaba_ | gnea: yes | 09:23 |
| csaba_ | so set it to 3? | 09:23 |
| Gnea | yes | 09:23 |
| Neroon | ikonia: Finds 2 lines | 09:23 |
| Kartagis | Leoneof, you don't have a .inf file? | 09:23 |
| magnetron | Leoneof: that's strange, it should use the madwifi driver | 09:23 |
| Leoneof | Kartagis, no | 09:24 |
| th0r | Leoneof: I cheated....have winxp in a vm, installed it there and then copied it to a usb drive | 09:24 |
| csaba_ | gnea: done | 09:24 |
| Leoneof | th0r, good trick, lol | 09:24 |
| Gnea | csaba_: okay, there's a way to "restart all" to make sure it takes effect | 09:24 |
| dew | ikonia i can only find min ram and min disk space | 09:24 |
| Leoneof | th0r, i don't have vm :( | 09:24 |
| Neroon | ikonia: Beneath Target: rm -f *.o *.ko *.mod.* .[a-z]* core *.i and near the end of the file: $(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) M=$(PWD) clean | 09:24 |
| ikonia | Neroon: the I can only assume your tarball is corrupted in some way, as if there is a clean entry in the makefile and make -f Makefile clean doesn't work there is a problem | 09:24 |
| fagel | Im trying to start monkey 5 via wine, it works if I open it via nautilus right click open with wine. But I cant get it working if i try to make a shortcut to wine "/home/bla/", it says im opening it from from directory, anyone know a solution? | 09:24 |
| csaba_ | gnea: ok I should restart samba? | 09:25 |
| Neroon | ikonia: The strange thing is, i cant unpack it using tar ... even downloaded it again just now | 09:25 |
| Gnea | csaba_: basically | 09:25 |
| dew | whats the min cpu requirements? | 09:25 |
| ikonia | dew: Id assume any modern cpu then anything above a pentium 4 | 09:25 |
| joey_ | I have but my area is not listed in the sources | 09:26 |
| ikonia | Neroon: what command are you using ? | 09:26 |
| alien | i find the solution " i have to stop tor then install vidalia ... | 09:26 |
| csaba_ | gnea: I did: /etc/init.d/samba restart | 09:26 |
| Spikemcc | does lxde or openbox alloy 3d games and compiz ??? | 09:26 |
| ikonia | Spikemcc: the desktop doesn't effect that | 09:26 |
| Gnea | csaba_: okay, now check your log - i usually do this: tail -f /var/log/samba/log.smbd | 09:27 |
| alien | if tor is working and if you install vidalia .. vidalia can not make the correct config | 09:27 |
| dew | hey all. my cpu runs between 80 and 100%. causing it to lagg any sugestions? | 09:27 |

| Gnea | csaba_: crash it! :) | 09:29 |
| csaba_ | should I paste it here: | 09:29 |
| Gnea | nooooo! | 09:29 |
| ikonia | dew: well, the celerons are a pretty poor cpu, is the cpu %100 all the time, or just spiking | 09:29 |
| Gnea | use the pastebin, always | 09:29 |
| ikonia | Neroon: that sounds better | 09:29 |
| dew | ikonia pretty much all the time. to small u think? | 09:29 |
| magnetron | Leoneof: is this on a laptop? make sure the card is enabled | 09:30 |
| ikonia | dew: possible, but I wouldn't have said so | 09:30 |
| magnetron | Leoneof: many laptops have buttons for disabling wireless | 09:30 |
| Neroon | ikonia: I'd prefer it, if it WERE actually better. But still the 'no target' error | 09:30 |
| ikonia | Neroon: ooh wait | 09:31 |
| ikonia | hang on | 09:31 |
| Neroon | ikonia: *hanging* | 09:31 |
| ikonia | that's not the error believe it or not | 09:32 |
| ikonia | Neroon: I've just read the acctual make file properly | 09:32 |
| ikonia | it's terrible | 09:32 |
| Neroon | ikonia: omg ... i found it | 09:32 |
| ikonia | Neroon: do tell | 09:32 |

| Spikemcc | ikonia is there a way to have all anwsers of the bestbot in a text file or something like ? | 09:33 |
| csaba_ | it is from syslog | 09:33 |
| ikonia | Spikemcc: no | 09:34 |
| Gnea | csaba_: what is your "lanman auth" set to? | 09:34 |
| csaba_ | ? | 09:35 |
| Gnea | it's in the samba config... | 09:35 |
| Gnea | look at the GUI | 09:35 |
| dew | ikonia have read a bit and 1.7 should run ubuntu. should i change my cpu frequency? | 09:36 |
| ikonia | dew: no | 09:36 |

| AdvoWork | how do you delete a route? if added by say: route add -net .... and its listed: 10.8/24 192.168.0.99 UGS 0 0 bge0 | 09:36 |
| === jelmer_ is now known as Guest41570 | ||
| Gnea | csaba_: okay, what about "client lanman auth"? | 09:36 |
| csaba_ | also no | 09:37 |
| Sj4lut | Hm... I have gnome, and I've set dsl connection with sudo pppoeconf,... but it won't connect automatically the next boot, also when my dynamically IP has been changed it won't connect automatically... where can I set that my dsl connection will be triggered automatically? | 09:37 |
| csaba_ | now something interesting, I can not add my xp to the domain anymore | 09:37 |
| richardcavell_ | What's the easiest way for me to add kernel 2.6.30 binaries to Jaunty? | 09:38 |
| Guest92268 | is it possible to put 1.5 gig file on dvdr | 09:38 |
| Gnea | csaba_: did something change in the smb.conf? | 09:38 |
| Ileden | Hi! I'm trying to get my Radeon 9200 to work with 3d support by following the guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver, but while display is otherwise ok, there's no 3d support. 'lshw -C display' reports the display as "UNCLAIMED". My Xorg.0.log has only one error, which reads "(EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)". I'm wondering why it refers to NVidia driver, since I have a Radeon card - my previous card tha | 09:38 |
| Gnea | Guest92268: yes | 09:38 |
| richardcavell_ | Guest92268: yes | 09:38 |
| Guest92268 | richardcavell then why are .vob files divided into 1gb files | 09:39 |
| richardcavell_ | Guest92268: probably to make them more manageable - for one thing, a 32 bit machine can't handle a file that's much bigger than that | 09:39 |
| Guest92268 | gnea then why are .vob files divided into 1gb files | 09:39 |
| Gnea | Guest92268: I don't know, that's a bit offtopic | 09:39 |
| Spikemcc | richardcavell sudo apt-get install linux-image (the latest stable kernel maybe not the one you want) | 09:39 |
| Guest92268 | richardcavell_ if 32bit can't hanndle file that big then why did you say "yes" | 09:40 |
| richardcavell_ | Spikemcc: latest for Jaunty is 2.6.28-14. I want 2.6.30. | 09:40 |
| Spikemcc | Ileden try on ubuntu 8.04 ... | 09:40 |
| Guest92268 | gnea if you don't know why did you say "yes" to my question | 09:40 |
| richardcavell_ | Guest92268: 32 bit machines cannot handle any file in RAM bigger than 4 Gig. It used to be 2 Gig and still is with some applications. | 09:40 |
| Gnea | Guest92268: excuse me? | 09:40 |
| MinosDis | hey is anyone here familiar with the sound crackling problem? Ever since installing the kubuntu 9.04 package from ubuntu, my sound either crackles, fails or is silent | 09:41 |
| ikonia | Guest92268: what is the question ? | 09:41 |
| Guest92268 | is it possible to put 1.5 gig file on dvdr | 09:41 |
| richardcavell_ | Guest92268: yes it is | 09:41 |
| Spikemcc | the latest isn't always the better, you will have to compile your kernel seek a tutorial for this maybe in the doc | 09:41 |
| ikonia | Guest92268: yes | 09:41 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: are you suggesting downgrading my complete Ubuntu installation? | 09:41 |
| Guest92268 | ikonia then why are .vob files divided into 1gb files | 09:41 |
| Gnea | Guest92268: i answered the question about the 1.5 gig file on the dvdr, then you asked a totally different question. | 09:41 |
| ikonia | Guest92268: that's nothing to do with ubuntu | 09:41 |
| Guest92268 | ikonia i never said it was | 09:41 |
| richardcavell_ | Spikemcc: I need it because I'm going to run bleeding edge drivers to fix my video. 2.6.30 is in Karmic so I can fudge it. | 09:41 |
| ikonia | Guest92268: it's to do with DVD player's onboard ram and the speed. | 09:42 |
| csaba_ | gnea: | 09:42 |
| ikonia | Guest92268: this channel is for ubuntu support only | 09:42 |
| Guest92268 | ikonia okay sorry | 09:42 |
| csaba_ | I am lost | 09:42 |
| simplexio | that remind me ewhy im should not be in this channel | 09:42 |
| csaba_ | what should I do now? | 09:42 |
| Spikemcc | Ileden for old Atis only ubuntu hardy heron 8.04.3 LTS is decent for 3d | 09:42 |
| simplexio | and max file sizes are relevant on ubuntu channel | 09:42 |
| csaba_ | smb.conf updated after I used swat | 09:42 |
| Gnea | csaba_: take a look at your config file itself, then take a look at the config file you pastebin'd | 09:42 |
| Gnea | csaba_: go through, make sure everything is set correctly via swat | 09:43 |
| Sj4lut_ | Hm... I have gnome, and I've set dsl connection with sudo pppoeconf,... but it won't connect automatically the next boot, also when my dynamically IP has been changed it won't connect automatically... where can I set that my dsl connection will be triggered automatically? | 09:43 |
| csaba_ | gnea: I am not sure what should I look for | 09:44 |
| csaba_ | should I look swat or the smb.conf file | 09:44 |
| Gnea | csaba_: just start from the top and work your way down, all of the options are in the swat - if it's not logging in, then perhaps another setting was reset | 09:44 |
| dew | hey guys cpu runs at 100%. What can i do to resolve this? | 09:45 |
| yangmeian | pinoy? | 09:45 |

| csaba_ | gnea: sorry but, now that I used swat the file is rearranged | 09:46 |
| Leoneof | oops, sorry, wa afk | 09:46 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: really? that's weird. This should probably be mentioned in the RadeonDriver guide. | 09:47 |
| csaba_ | I do not understand what the point is here | 09:47 |
| Neroon | ikonia: Did the ov511 compile without any errors for you? | 09:47 |
| Gnea | csaba_: the point is to check the general options to see what changed, so the xp client can login again. | 09:47 |
| ikonia | Neroon: 1 error which i fixed | 09:48 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: is this documented somewhere that can be linked to, so the guide could relfect it? | 09:48 |
| Spikemcc | Ileden no on all ubuntu sites ... | 09:48 |
| csaba_ | the difference is that I changed loglevel, and the lines are in different order now | 09:48 |
| Neroon | ikonia: Da.., lot's of errors, and doesnt compile all through | 09:48 |
| Gnea | csaba_: that's the *ONLY* thing that changed? | 09:48 |
| Leoneof | Kartagis, i don't know how to compile madwifi, i'm newbie, any other idea? | 09:48 |
| Spikemcc | not really it's a matter of choice mostly ... | 09:48 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: I'd also be interested to know what in the upgrade causes it not to work. | 09:49 |
| csaba_ | workgroup and netbios names are uppercase now | 09:49 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: in case there is a workaround. | 09:49 |

| Spikemcc | 8.04 and 8.10 work with ati catalyst 9.4 but 9.04 need a patch that don't work well | 09:49 |
| tyler_ | hey whats a good gui ftp server for ubuntu? | 09:50 |
| Spikemcc | but as 8.04 and 8.10 most difference is the support, I choose 8.04 | 09:50 |
| Kartagis | Leoneof, use ndiswrapper, not madwifi | 09:50 |
| moncky | !best | tyler_ | 09:51 |
| ubottu | tyler_: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 09:51 |
| csaba_ | hosts allow = 192.168.0. localhost now has a comma between them | 09:51 |
| Leoneof | Katagis, i used ndiswrapper :`( | 09:51 |
| csaba_ | but really I do not see anything | 09:51 |
| csaba_ | I will pastebot it | 09:51 |
| tyler_ | moncky: how bout u just give me one that you like...no need to do that !best | 09:51 |
| prospire | this is strange....search recursion in google and see did u mean? | 09:51 |
| Sj4lut_ | So once again... pppoeconf won't really automatically connect dsl while boot. Why is that? Also when dynamic ip has b33n changed, it won't trigger again? | 09:51 |
| Sj4lut_ | !dsl | 09:51 |
| ubottu | Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE | 09:51 |
| Gnea | ok | 09:51 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: yeah, but I'm running 9.04, not 8.10, so it would be a significant downgrade | 09:51 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: anyway, thanks for the infromation. | 09:52 |
| Spikemcc | tyler_ filezilla is well known | 09:52 |
| tyler_ | i have filezilla but isnt that a ftp client and not a server? | 09:52 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: the guide does speak about an open source driver, though, not Catalyst (which I assume is ATI prorietary driver) | 09:52 |
| Kartagis | tyler_, filezilla also has a server | 09:53 |
| csaba_ | gnea: http://paste.ubuntu.com/229833/ | 09:53 |
| csaba_ | look here | 09:53 |
| Ileden | tyler_: there are both filezilla client, and filezilla server | 09:53 |
| Spikemcc | ATI driver yes | 09:53 |
| moncky | Ileden: isnt filezilla server windows only? | 09:53 |
| tyler_ | Ileden: are they separeate apps or are they the same | 09:53 |
| Ileden | tyler_: separate. | 09:53 |
| tyler_ | thanks | 09:54 |
| Spikemcc | open source driver is installed at start on 8.10 and 9.04 but it's not good ... | 09:54 |
| Ileden | moncky: hem, could be right. I am a windows migrater, afert all, and haven't used filezilla server on linux | 09:54 |
| Kartagis | tyler_, filezille server is windows only | 09:54 |
| Kartagis | filezilla* | 09:54 |
| Gnea | csaba_: hrm, it took out 'socket options' | 09:54 |
| dahlia | is there a way I can use a 32 bit gstreamer with my 8.10 64 bit system? | 09:54 |
| moncky | Ileden: yeah just had a look, tis windows only | 09:55 |
| tyler_ | damn...any other ftp servers...im transferring terabytes of data over a network and windows keeps disconnecting...so im gonna try ftp | 09:55 |
| csaba_ | gnea: like what? | 09:55 |
| moncky | tyler_: try vsftp its not gui but is pretty simple to setup | 09:55 |
| causasui | I have a USB hard drive and I'd like to make partitions with various linux/windows installer disc ISOs on it so I could boot whichever one easily. Is that possible? how? | 09:55 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: the guide lists "Full 3D support" for "9200 / rv280 based cards", and I understand it's talking about the open source "ati" driver | 09:55 |
| moncky | tyler_: if you are transferring large ammounds of data you would be better with scp | 09:55 |
| tyler_ | scp? | 09:56 |
| Ileden | (or "radeon", to be exact - it seems "ati" is only a wrapper) | 09:56 |
| jan-niklas | rfhellohello | 09:56 |
| moncky | tyler_: secure transfer protocol | 09:56 |
| jan-niklas | hello | 09:56 |
| jan-niklas | hahaha | 09:56 |
| moncky | tyler_: scp tyler@localhost:/path/to/file tyler@remotehost:/destination/of/file | 09:56 |
| Ileden | moncky, tyler_: ah, filezilla server is only for windows. sorry for the false info. | 09:57 |
| csaba_ | gnea: now what? | 09:57 |
| Spikemcc | Ileden try ati catalyst 9.4 on ubuntu hardy heron 8.04.3 LTS | 09:58 |
| moncky | tyler_: you will need to add some options ot that which I cant remeber right now check man scp for more info | 09:58 |
| Gnea | csaba_: okay, it also elminated the security type, so you'll need to go through to the GUI and change it back to user | 09:58 |
| Gnea | csaba_: that's probably what's preventing the login | 09:58 |
| csaba_ | oh, that is why I can not add it to the domain | 09:58 |
| icewaterman | has this dialog been removed in jaunty? http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/turn-off-auto-play-of-audio-and-video-cds-and-dvds-in-ubuntu/ | 09:58 |
| tyler_ | do i need a server running to do secure transfer protocol? | 09:59 |
| Gnea | right, it doesn't know how to handle logins correctly | 09:59 |
| Spikemcc | in case if you really miss your shot try envyng ... I used it from the terminal "envyng -t" when envyng is installed before | 09:59 |
| csaba_ | it is secutiry = user in swat | 09:59 |
| csaba_ | I do not understand | 09:59 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: I don't feel like it's a good idea to downgrade my system. I guess I'll have to fish for another diplay adapter. :-/ But if 9.04 does have the opne source driver, and i's listed as sproviding full 3d support, shouldn't it work? | 10:00 |
| Gnea | but it's not explicitly set in the smb.conf file | 10:00 |
| csaba_ | ok, how would I do that? | 10:00 |
| Gnea | change it to something else and save it, then change it back to user and save it again | 10:00 |
| csaba_ | should I press set default in swat? | 10:01 |
| Ileden | tyler_: If I remeber correctly, you only need to start the "remote shell server (ssh)" from services to get scp to work. | 10:01 |
| Gnea | i would avoid it | 10:01 |
| csaba_ | ok then how to explicitly set it? | 10:02 |
| Spikemcc | Ileden just don't expect 3d gaming ... | 10:02 |
| Ileden | tyler_: what os are you transferring from? | 10:02 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: not expecting - I'd get a better card for that. I'd like to get google earth and such, only. | 10:02 |
| Gnea | csaba_: 04:00 < Gnea> change it to something else and save it, then change it back to user and save it again | 10:03 |
| Spikemcc | the open source driver should do well | 10:03 |
| Ileden | Spikemcc: yeah, as long as I got it to work... | 10:03 |
| tyler_ | Ileden: im transfering files off ubuntu drives to a windows pc | 10:03 |
| csaba_ | well, I do not see why is this better then hand editing it | 10:04 |
| moncky | tyler_: from two seperate machines in the same location? | 10:04 |
| tyler_ | yes 2 different computers located directly next to each other on a gigabyte network | 10:04 |
| Gnea | csaba_: it keeps the configuration options neat and in-line | 10:04 |
| csaba_ | gnea: still can not add to domain | 10:05 |
| Gnea | csaba_: did it actually save correctly with security = user now? | 10:05 |
| Ileden | tyler_: ok, then you also need an scp client for windows. There's at least WinSCP, that I know of. | 10:05 |
| moncky | tyler_: ah ok, so what you need to do is look at setting up samba | 10:05 |
| moncky | !samba | tyler_ | 10:05 |
| ubottu | tyler_: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 10:05 |
| moncky | tyler_: have a look at that link | 10:05 |
| jubei | what is japanese unbuntu channel? | 10:05 |

| === jubei is now known as Guest44350 | ||
| ubottu | jubei: please see above | 10:06 |
| Ileden | moncky: really? it it's an one time transfer, isn't messing with samba a bit too much? | 10:06 |
| Ileden | tyler_: is it a one time transfer, or do you need to transfer often? | 10:06 |
| tyler_ | samba is already setup guys... | 10:06 |
| csaba_ | gnea: I restarted samba and the xp | 10:06 |
| moncky | Ileden: samba is the tool for the job | 10:06 |
| tyler_ | i go to samba shares on windows and copy and paste the files and my windows network crashes....so i was gonnat try ftp cause u can resume and stuff | 10:07 |
| moncky | tyler_: so you should be able to simply drag and drop | 10:07 |
| Gnea | csaba_: okay, i'm assuming you checked the config file and it now has security = user | 10:07 |
| tyler_ | yeah i can drag and drop | 10:07 |
| * richardcavell is installing xorg-edgers and linux 2.6.30 and he'll let you all know how it goes | 10:07 | |
| Guest44350 | Myrtti, no one is in there | 10:07 |
| tyler_ | windows keeps shitting itself when i try to copy over smb | 10:07 |
| Ileden | tyler_: yeah, I've had some trouble with Samba as well.... | 10:07 |
| tyler_ | i want something with file integerty and one i can resume where i left off if there is a problem | 10:08 |
| moncky | tyler_: why is that? you should get the reason somoewhere in the event logs | 10:08 |
| Dimitree | Can i save the drivers for my DVB-S2 card and copy paste them in a new Ubuntu install ? | 10:08 |
| csaba_ | it doesn't after I restarted samba | 10:08 |
| csaba_ | what is going on here? | 10:09 |
| Gnea | then add it by hand | 10:09 |
| * Gnea has no idea | 10:09 | |
| tyler_ | Ileden: can u help me set up the ssh thing or whatever u were talking about | 10:09 |
| Ileden | tyler_: ok, scp is an option, although fixing samba sounds good too. For scp transfer, activate "remote shell sever (ssh)" from ubntu, and get WinSCP (or such) for windows, and try that for file transfers. | 10:09 |
| tyler_ | i cant use something like flashfxp or something...a normal ftp client? | 10:10 |
| csaba_ | gnea: if I click security = share then it is in the smb.conf | 10:10 |
| csaba_ | but then when I click security = user it is not in smb.conf | 10:10 |
| Ileden | tyler_: ftp clients don't usually know how to use scp. | 10:10 |
| csaba_ | gnea: what is this? | 10:10 |
| tyler_ | Ileden: how do i start ssh and how do i manage what files are shared | 10:10 |
| moncky | tyler_: are you trying to copy everything in one go? | 10:11 |
| Gnea | csaba_: okay, make it share, then edit it by hand to be user, save it, restart | 10:11 |
| Ileden | tyler_: with scp, you're basically using your own Ubuntu user account to do transfers, so there's no separate setting for what's shared. | 10:11 |
| Gnea | csaba_: i've never seen it do that before | 10:11 |
| tyler_ | moncky: yes about 3 tb worth from like 5 diff drive | 10:11 |
| tyler_ | s | 10:11 |
| Gnea | csaba_: it could be assuming that =user is the default setting | 10:11 |

| csaba_ | I am about to install ubuntu 8.04 | 10:12 |

| ubottu | ping yourself ;-) really the diodes all down my left side are sore | 10:13 |
| csaba_ | xp say it can not connect to any domain controllers | 10:13 |
| Gnea | csaba_: well, I don't know what else to suggest, other than check your logfiles in /var/log/samba/ or just set it back up with webmin. I'm sorry, but I've never seen this problem before, and without any input from you as far as syslog information goes, it's difficult to pinpoint the problem, still. | 10:14 |
| rob__ | hello | 10:15 |
| Gnea | csaba_: at this point, you may also want to ask in #samba | 10:15 |
| linux_manju | csaba_: Can you repeat the question please | 10:15 |
| rob__ | i need help!!! | 10:15 |
| Ileden | tyler_: what you want to activate, is "Remote shell server (ssh)". This allows you to log onto your Ubuntu form other computers in the network with SSH, using your username and password. | 10:15 |
| Gnea | !ask | rob__ | 10:15 |
| ubottu | rob__: 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. :-) | 10:15 |
| Gnea | csaba_: it might also be a good idea to walk away and come back to it later, like get some sleep in the meantime, unless other people are depending on you for this | 10:16 |
| csaba_ | gnea: thanks a billion for trying to help | 10:16 |
| csaba_ | I have been doing this all week almost | 10:16 |
| tyler_ | Ileden: I dont see that in services...cant i just type a command in terminal to start ssh server or somethng | 10:16 |
| Ileden | tyler_: (also, if you don't need it after the transfer, remember to deactivate it.) | 10:16 |
| csaba_ | reinstalled ubuntu twice | 10:17 |
| Gnea | csaba_: sorry it hasn't worked out yet, but hopefully this will give you a better avenue to get it to work | 10:17 |
| Boohbah | tyler_: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start | 10:17 |
| Gnea | csaba_: reinstalling certainly won't fix it properly, but that's your call | 10:17 |
| csaba_ | gnea: the bad part is that it worked fine for sometime | 10:17 |
| csaba_ | then it crashed | 10:17 |
| rob__ | ok well when i boot LINUX KARMIC latest kernel, it looks like it will boot fine, and then firstly it says "NVIDIA (96.43.10) FAIL" Then when it rund through that it says ASSUMING DRIVE CACH: WRITE THROUGH, it says this twice and then o the second just freezes and wont boot | 10:17 |
| Boohbah | rob__: /join #ubuntu+1 | 10:18 |
| Gnea | csaba_: that's why i keep an eye on my syslog, so that when things do crash, i can go back and see why | 10:18 |
| tyler_ | Boohbah: command not found...do i need to install something? | 10:18 |
| Ileden | tyler_: hmm... could be you don't have the ssh packages. | 10:18 |
| rob__ | it did this after i went back to the old nvidia driver and turned compiz off | 10:18 |

| tyler_ | Ileden: does scp transer have some kind of limit to the speed...i have a gigabit network and its only transferring at 12.5 MB/s and over SMB it was transferring at like 60 | 10:33 |
| ikonia | tyler_: you won't get through put at a gig | 10:34 |
| Boohbah | csaba_: "refusing to store 0 length domain or servername!" ... means you need a domain or servername | 10:34 |
| tyler_ | ikonia: what | 10:34 |
| fuffalo | so how do i upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04 if my sources.list is out of date? | 10:35 |
| csaba_ | <Boohbah>: where do I need to set it? | 10:35 |

| csaba_ | so guys, please tell my what should I set and where | 10:37 |
| csaba_ | I am totally exhausetd | 10:37 |
| linux_manju | csaba_: Check the URL and the solution at the bottom | 10:38 |
| jeeves | moncky, thanks again. I'm going to give this a try | 10:38 |
| Ileden | tyler_: it shouldn't have any limit. | 10:38 |
| tyler_ | Ileden: weird... | 10:38 |
| moncky | jeeves: np let me know how it goes | 10:38 |
| Ileden | tyler_: it might be a bit slower than fpt, since there's encryption and all, but i've never noticed any significant speed issues | 10:39 |
| Ileden | tyler_: maybe winscp has some weird settings somewhere? | 10:39 |
| csaba_ | <linux_manju>: I am very sorry but I do not see it | 10:40 |
| tyler_ | ah...well the both hard drives have speeds capable of 60MB/s that i have gotten over smb...yeah i wiil look at settings | 10:40 |
| csaba_ | what do I miss in my config? | 10:40 |
| tyler_ | ah speed is unlimited | 10:40 |
| linux_manju | csaba_: Search for lanman auth = Yes in the same page | 10:40 |
| moncky | tyler_: im beginning to wonder if your linux side is working fine and that the issue is with the reciving windows machine? Have you asked anyone at ##windows? | 10:40 |

| csaba_ | do you mean I should use these in my smb.conf? | 10:41 |
| raimo | I took config from my current kernel 2.6.28 something and compiled the 2.6.31 | 10:41 |
| raimo | my kernel's size is 270m wtf? | 10:41 |
| ikonia | raimo: 2.6.29 is a karmic kernel | 10:41 |

| windoze | Ileden: thanks a lot i will test it...how do i turn the ssh server off after im done? | 10:43 |
| Ziggyzxxyl | what is this nonsense???? how come I have to run Kino as root to be able to export a DV file? That can't be right??? | 10:44 |
| Boohbah | windoze: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop | 10:44 |
| windoze | ok thats what i thought thanks guys | 10:44 |
| ikonia | Ziggyzxxyl: depends who owns the device your accessing from, and the file system your writing too | 10:45 |
| Ileden | windoze: or by gui, System->Administration->Services | 10:45 |
| windoze | ok awesome | 10:45 |
| csaba_ | I need to restart my machine | 10:45 |

| frogzoo | is there a toolbar applet that will graph my cpu? | 10:46 |
| fuffalo | in the hardyupgrades it says the 2.6.22-15 kerne will freeze, and i should use 2.6.22-14, however im using 2.6.16.29-xen, how do i know if that will freeze | 10:46 |
| Ziggyzxxyl | ikonia: well it is completely nuts cos I can read and write mpeg files and project files etc from kino as a normal user, but try to write a DV file and it shats itself and says it can't write the file... unless I am running Kino as root.. I don't understand what is causing it. | 10:46 |

| maxagaz | linux_manju, how ? | 10:48 |
| linux_manju | maxagaz: But.. it will take an year to interpret it | 10:48 |
| linux_manju | maxagaz: tcpdump -nei eth0 -vv -X | 10:48 |
| maxagaz | linux_manju, using grep... | 10:48 |
| moncky | jeeves: doh, ok might be time for you to learn all about grub configs :D they are quite simple really, ill grab you a link | 10:48 |
| linux_manju | maxagaz: or may be couple of more Xs | 10:48 |
| jeeves | moncky, so far, /dev/sda3 is the Linux boot partition, and I can't get it to see it | 10:48 |
| linux_manju | maxagaz: tcpdump -nei eth0 -vv -XxXx | 10:48 |
| spiderwoman | what i have to type in to search for files? i used to use this thing but i have forgotten everything | 10:49 |
| jeeves | moncky, if I could get the MBR to boot to /dev/sda3, then I'd be set | 10:49 |
| linux_manju | maxagaz: Still.. you may see some of the texts.. but .. along with tcp Headers | 10:49 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: what's in your mbr? grub? | 10:49 |

| nathan7 | jeeves: I never got it to work D= | 10:50 |

| nathan7 | jeeves: Mhm, you can use GRUB | 10:51 |
| jeeves | nathan7, lol, I opened my mouth last night to the boss and a few others, so I need to get this to work before the sun comes up, or I have to pick up that bar tab. | 10:51 |

| maxagaz | linux_manju, what does -XxXx stands for ? | 10:53 |
| linux_manju | maxagaz: Extended headers | 10:53 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: Okay | 10:53 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: sudo apt-get install syslinux | 10:53 |
| jeeves | nathan7, is this going to hoop my current install? | 10:53 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: No | 10:53 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: It shouldn't | 10:54 |
| maxagaz | linux_manju, is it possible to see only the content without header ? | 10:54 |

| jeeves | nathan7, I hope this won't hoop my install | 10:56 |
| kripz | nathan7, that doesnt explain why its always going into read only mode | 10:56 |
| linux_manju | maxagaz: But why? | 10:56 |
| maxagaz | linux_manju, just to check | 10:56 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: Me too | 10:56 |

| nathan7 | jeeves: Is 3 your linux partition? | 10:58 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: What is 1? | 10:58 |
| jeeves | nathan7, it's /dev/sda5 I think. one sec | 10:59 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: Oh | 10:59 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: That's a bit harder | 10:59 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: You could just try the fdisk stuff with 5 instead of 3 | 10:59 |
| jeeves | nathan7, I did that actully | 11:00 |
| nathan7 | jeeves: Ah | 11:00 |
| Ileden | maxagaz: but if you're aiming for all uncrypted conversations, best bet might be to analyze the packet data in some script, that recognizers typical characteristics of language, and displays only stuff it recognizes as language. | 11:00 |
| zk | hey guys, i' m using Ubuntu 9.04 and Google maps in firefox doesn't work....do i have to install any Java stuff? | 11:00 |

| jeeves | nathan7, I can see all of the partitions right now, and it looks like the data is there. if I can get back the the proper grub parition, then I can go from there. I hate the live CD | 11:01 |

| linux_manju | By the way.. Which one is better kde4 or gnome ? | 11:16 |
| iceroot | linux_manju: the one u like more | 11:16 |
| erUSUL | !best | linux_manju | 11:16 |
| ubottu | linux_manju: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 11:16 |
| linux_manju | I use.. ratpoison.. But I keep getting calls from friends/customers on which one to use | 11:16 |
| iceroot | linux_manju: on ubuntu gnome is maybe better because kubuntu has a bad kde-integration, if you want to see a good kde-integration use opensuse | 11:17 |
| linux_manju | erUSUL: iceroot : I am just asking for an opinion.. I do know there is nothing like single best application.. But someone here would have used both | 11:17 |
| linux_manju | That would help me alot | 11:17 |
| linux_manju | iceroot: I guess there is a live CD of kde4 available as well need to try it sometime | 11:18 |
| Ileden | what in fact is even the difference between gnome and kde? or is it something buried so deep, that it's not possible to explain in understandable way? | 11:18 |
| erUSUL | linux_manju: If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. <<< ;P seriously imho gnome is better for someone that is a beginner | 11:18 |
| iceroot | linux_manju: as you said, there is no best, so everyone prefered another one and if you ask in #ubuntu (ubuntu = gnome) you will get more gnome-counts, if you ask in #kubuntu you will get more kde-counts | 11:18 |

| iceroot | webnoob: html + php is ok for me | 11:22 |

| iceroot | webnoob: tell me what web2.0 is..... | 11:23 |
| webnoob | Ileden: OK | 11:24 |
| linux_manju | webnoob: I guess. pylons Rock.. | 11:24 |
| Ileden | webnoob: but if you're talking about the gui experience, javascript is the way to go on the client side. | 11:24 |
| linux_manju | webnoob: and Python is easy to learn | 11:24 |
| Ileden | webnoob: with php/python/ruby/whatever on the server side | 11:24 |
| webnoob | linux_manju: I know python too | 11:24 |
| kanub | hello linux_manju, thanks for your quick response. i'm a Ubuntu (and IRC) newbie and working in an Windows XP only environment, so my actions are quite limited. i need a .img file of the Ubuntu desktop version, because this is the only file type i can write to my USB drive and install Ubuntu. | 11:24 |
| Ileden | webnoob: and you'll want to use some framework with javascript, jquery is one example | 11:24 |
| linux_manju | webnoob: Try pylons then.. But as Ileden suggested.. Java script is a must | 11:24 |
| webnoob | linux_manju: could u recommend which api to use with pythhon and php? | 11:25 |
| webnoob | linux_manju: k | 11:25 |
| moncky | webnoob: python + django? | 11:25 |
| linux_manju | webnoob: Yup.. django is also good.. but pylons somewhat easier | 11:25 |

| webnoob | Ileden: i am not much into java so i guess i should stick to pthon and pylons as mentioned by linux_manju | 11:27 |
| Ileden | webnoob: javascript has, in fact, nothing to do with java. :) | 11:27 |

| Chousuke | NeoTubNinja: what do you mean they don't do anything? | 11:30 |
| Ileden | webnoob: but if you want to stick with only server-side programming, go ahead! JS still has many problems, even with the libraries - serverside is the most stabile way to go. | 11:30 |

| NeoTubNinja | well, if i were to install compiz with apt-get then try to remove it, i would still be able to use it | 11:31 |
| sash_ | NeoTubNinja: do you use apt-get whathev with sudo? | 11:31 |
| mircox2 | qualcuno che fa certificazioni energetiche? | 11:31 |
| NeoTubNinja | yes | 11:31 |
| Chousuke | NeoTubNinja: it may be that you installed a metapackage. | 11:31 |
| Chousuke | NeoTubNinja: that drew the actual programs in as dependencies. | 11:31 |
| Chousuke | NeoTubNinja: in those cases, removing the metapackage does nothing. | 11:31 |
| windoze | is sftp a safe protocol to transfer huge amounts of data without corruption | 11:31 |
| Ileden | windoze: I would expect some extra package wold need to be installed for that, though. | 11:32 |
| Chousuke | windoze: hmm.. I don't think it does hashing | 11:32 |
| Chousuke | windoze: you might find rsync useful | 11:32 |
| windoze | hashing? | 11:32 |
| Chousuke | windoze: to ensure no corruption | 11:32 |
| Ileden | windoze: I don't think there's any danger of corruption with sftp | 11:32 |
| Chousuke | then again, sftp does encrypt the traffic | 11:33 |
| tsimpson_ | rsync can use ssh | 11:34 |
| Chousuke | any corruption would probably be noticed. | 11:34 |
| Chousuke | but rsync is designed for transferring huge amounts of data, so... :) | 11:34 |
| windoze | so ssh server can do everything :_) | 11:34 |
| qdinar | hello | 11:35 |
| windoze | what kind of client do i need on my windows pc to do rsync? | 11:35 |
| qdinar | with what text editor to replace text with regex? | 11:36 |
| iceroot | qdinar: vi | 11:36 |
| qdinar | thank you | 11:36 |
| Ileden | windoze: well, if you get a ssh client, such as putty, you can log into your computer though it (which is it's primary purpose) - and then there are these SCP/SFTP file transfer implementations on top of that | 11:36 |
| fotoflo | how do i set and check the time from the command line? | 11:37 |
| windoze | Ileden: what about rsync | 11:37 |
| brainopia | I get timeout when i try to use snmpwalk to get info from my server, but if i use snmpwalk via ssh on server then it works fine. What can be the reason of this if i have only one line in /etc/smpn/spmnd.conf: rocommunity public | 11:37 |
| Ileden | windoze: yeah, rsync is good too, but I have no experience with it. you can tunnel it through ssh somehow, I figure | 11:37 |

| charred | Hello I wonder if anyone can help me. I am trying to enable my graphics card driver (ATI X1300) and according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI, it is not recommended I get it from the ATI site. However, when I go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers as it suggests, the only device that is listed to enable is my sound card, which is already enabled. I wonder if you suggest that I just get it from the ATI site? Or | 11:39 |
| charred | is there some way to get the one tested by devs via Hardware Drivers that I'm unaware of? Using 64-bit, by the way. | 11:39 |
| varunthacker | yes.in volume control my mic. option is muted | 11:39 |
| charred | I ran glxgears and it was averaging around 390 FPS (i'm using dual monitors with compiz cube enabled so this may make it run slower, but as far as I can tell it's not running from the driver) | 11:41 |
| Ileden | webnoob: those use Flash, and it's scripting language, ActionScript | 11:41 |
| webnoob | Ileden: k thanks | 11:42 |
| movela | hi everyone, i have been reformatting and installing and trying out various linux distros in my hdd. is this unhealty? for the past 2 wks i have been doing this once or twice a day. thanks | 11:42 |
| frogzoo | anyone like to recommend a toolbar applet that graphs cpu over time? | 11:42 |
| Ileden | webnoob: there's an open source implementation of compiling flash, called Ming (if I remember correctly) - otherwise you'll have to get the Flash designer program from Adobe | 11:42 |
| dew | ikonia | 11:42 |
| frogzoo | movela: you won't go blind anyway | 11:42 |
| movela | unhealthy for the drive | 11:42 |
| jrib | movela: it's fine, but it would be a lot easier to use a virtualizer like virtualbox | 11:43 |
| NeoTubNinja | movela: should try virtualbox | 11:43 |
| Ileden | webnoob: but you Flash only moderately, and in specific circumstances. Do not do any site navigation with flash, since it breaks the whole model of a web page. | 11:43 |
| webnoob | Ileden: thanks for that piece of advice! | 11:44 |
| movela | ok thanks. i thaught this might lead to a harddrive failing or something | 11:44 |
| varunthacker | cristi:yes.its muted | 11:44 |
| Ileden | webnoob: but Flash is a good tool for something like youtube videos, specific interactions, presentations and such | 11:44 |

| keylocker | someone know where can i allow gufw to dont ask me a password to get started? i searched within policykit but no progress | 11:45 |

| Blizzerand | keylocker : While logging in ?? | 11:46 |
| keylocker | Blizzerand: yes.. it opens in tray (ive configured for this) | 11:46 |
| Ileden | webnoob: yup :) Sorry for preaching, I've gotten frustrated with too many flash-dependent sites. Gladly, they're being replaced by mature javascript these days | 11:46 |

| redpants | hi all | 11:47 |
| dayo | !welcome | redpants | 11:48 |
| ubottu | redpants: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel. | 11:48 |
| janisozaur_ | how do i find the UUID of a partition? | 11:49 |
| redpants | Can anyone help me out a bit with installing ATI drivers for a x1400 Radeon mobility? I'm trying to install the official ATI drivers so I can get dual monitor support but am getting an error. | 11:49 |
| joaopinto | janisozaur_, blkid | 11:49 |
| Blizzerand | keylocker : System --> Admin.. --> Login window . Select the security tab and check *enable automatic log in* or something of that sort | 11:49 |
| joaopinto | redpants, have you tried the drivers from the repositories ? They are from ATI also, just better integrated with ubuntu | 11:49 |
| joaopinto | I mean, the restricted drivers | 11:49 |
| keylocker | Blizzerand: i have automatic login enabled | 11:50 |
| redpants | no, haven't tried the repositories. Will it install the proper drivers I need for dual monitor support? | 11:50 |
| keylocker | Blizzerand: this ubuntu is running in my netbook. but i told to gufw start when boots | 11:50 |
| l3dx | movela: don't worry | 11:50 |
| joaopinto | redpants, it will install the recommended drivers, not sure they support what you need | 11:50 |

| redpants | I'm trying to do an "extended desktop" setting with two monitors - one being my laptop and the other being a 24" lcd | 11:51 |
| keylocker | Blizzerand: my point is how to tell packagekit gufw and ufw dont need my password | 11:51 |
| movela | thanks l3dx | 11:51 |
| redpants | Since they are different resolutions they aren't playing nice together right now | 11:51 |
| l3dx | movela: unless you're planning to format/reinstall every single day for a couple of years ;) | 11:52 |
| Ileden | webnoob: the general idea is that the web2.0 sites use html+css with small png images to look good, JS (and other AJAX methods) to make interaction nice - not having to reaload the page all the time, and PHP/Python/whatever to actually make stuff happen :) | 11:52 |
| orflon | hey, does `tar` have any default arguments? Because I want to tar a directory and preserve the symblinks, though when I untar they seem to be just an empty file. Any clues? | 11:53 |
| === kb is now known as Guest33749 | ||
| orflon | I run it like: tar -cz -f <target dir> --force-local <directory> <symblink> | 11:53 |
| webnoob | Ileden: that was a great summary! i wanted to hear something like that! so that i know what to do next. | 11:55 |
| Ileden | webnoob: oh, and MySQL/PostgreSQL to store all the data. should have been there too. | 11:56 |
| vise | Do you get an IDE which scans your project for symbols and allows you to locate them dynamically? Like if im using a function my_printf() located in some other file, it should open that file if i click on the function call.. | 11:56 |
| movela | l3dx: also an hdd question. i partition my drive with 4 parts. 2 for OSes. 1 for swap. and 1 for backup usu. fat32 so windows can see it. | 11:57 |
| webnoob | Ileden: :) u r really so nice. thanks for mentioning! but i was done with the LAMP already! :) | 11:57 |
| movela | will a fat32 used by both linux and windows be bad for the drive? | 11:57 |
| vise | movela, No | 11:57 |
| vise | movela, Never | 11:58 |
| Ileden | webnoob: ok. :) | 11:58 |
| movela | windows need defrag and linux don't | 11:58 |
| vise | movela, Linux doesnt have a defragmenter for it thats it.... as linux doesnt care... it has it's own fs to care about... | 11:58 |
| Ileden | movela: if linux uses fat32, it needs defrag from time to time, just as windows | 11:59 |
| l3dx | movela: windows needs defrag because of its filesystems | 11:59 |
| movela | i've noticed using my vista partition for a couple of hrs and it has over a thousand fragments | 11:59 |
| l3dx | movela: also, why not use ntfs? | 11:59 |
| moncky | movela: nfts and ext handle their files in a very different way | 11:59 |

| Exile | hey guys I'm a bit of a linux n00b & I've built an ubuntu file/ssh/x11 server and it works great for what I need. I've installed webmin from http://www.webmin.com so I can edit the server config through a browser. Webmin has a bit on IDE Parameters where you choose a standby timeout period for the harddrives, so that they will be put into standby when not used for long periods of time. Unforunatly the webmin IDE Parameters do not seem to be getting applied so I | 12:15 |
| Exile | wondered if anyone knows how I can get it to work or if I can set standby timeout period for the harddrives without webmin? | 12:15 |
| FloodBot2 | Exile: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:15 |
| Guest6103 | does anyone know the command line to force install the current stable Jaunty xorg packages? | 12:15 |
| magnetron | !webmin | Exile | 12:15 |
| ubottu | Exile: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 12:15 |

| Guest6103 | Might be interesting to see | 12:19 |
| Guest6103 | But remote desktop is said to be laggy even over huge bandwidth | 12:19 |
| LexLuth0r | Can you get VNC for Ubuntu | 12:19 |
| LexLuth0r | As this works fine when I connect via my WinXP laptop | 12:20 |
| magnetron | Guest6103: lag is caused by roundtrip times, not necessarily bandwidth | 12:20 |
| Guest6103 | LexLuth0r: Remote Desktop is VNC | 12:20 |
| LexLuth0r | Well home comes its more laggy when using Ubuntu to when I use WinXP | 12:20 |
| magnetron | LexLuth0r: maybe you are running it on a lower resolution in windows, we don't know | 12:21 |
| LexLuth0r | I can sit in the same place and my WinXP response time is instant where Ubuntu its about 4 second | 12:21 |

| linux_manju | Twittery: Can you try aria2 and see if its any better | 12:39 |
| Twittery | linux_manju : What is aria2 | 12:39 |
| Exile | Twittery your using a p2p network ofcourse each time you use it the performance is gonna be diffrent | 12:39 |
| Almindor | linux_manju, reiserfs, and it does | 12:39 |
| linux_manju | Twittery: Torrents are unlike http FTP downloads.. they are incosistant at times | 12:40 |
| Almindor | linux_manju, question is how can I change it now? | 12:40 |
| linux_manju | Almindor: fstab ?? | 12:40 |
| Almindor | linux_manju, I can't get to that options window without mounting, but I can't mount it because it has "wrong options" | 12:40 |
| Exile | does anyone know how I can set standby timeout period for my server harddrives, so that they will be put into standby when not used for long periods of time? | 12:40 |

| Almindor | linux_manju, it's a removable disk | 12:40 |

| Twittery | linux_manju : k | 12:41 |
| Almindor | linux_manju, so any ideas how to get to that options window without actually mounting that volume? (I changed it for volume only) | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip | stewart_: does it show up if you access it from the local machine? | 12:41 |
| melkart | a game in wine changed my screen resolution so that my monitor now says "out of range" and displays a black screen. i am writing from text console now. is there a way to make the X server change the screen resolution back to something my monitor can display? | 12:42 |
| linux_manju | Almindor: may be udev rules.. not sure | 12:42 |
| stewart_ | ActionParsnip: its on my localmachine | 12:42 |
| lintel | hi, I updated to 9.04 and now OOO lost its Ubuntu-look though the U-theme package is installed. Any ideas? | 12:42 |
| Almindor | that's so damn illogical | 12:42 |
| stewart_ | Almindor: why? | 12:42 |
| Almindor | you can change stuff to break but only when it's "on" but you can't change it once you put it off | 12:42 |
| Almindor | that's friggin hilarius | 12:42 |
| ActionParsnip | melkart: restart the x server | 12:42 |
| Almindor | hilarious* | 12:43 |
| Exile | that wont work | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Almindor: what are you trying to change? | 12:43 |
| Exile | the resoloution | 12:43 |
| linux_manju | Almindor: There ought to be a way.. Only that we dont know | 12:43 |
| Almindor | you can set volume options on removable media if it's mounted | 12:43 |
| Exile | by the sound of it | 12:43 |
| melkart | ActionParsnip: but then all my other windows open will be killed, wont they? | 12:43 |
| linux_manju | Almindor: that does not mean its illogical | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | melkart: indeed | 12:43 |
| Almindor | I need to change those volume options because it won't mount now, but I can't get into it | 12:43 |
| melkart | ActionParsnip: is there another way which avoids this? | 12:43 |
| Almindor | yes it is, it's FUBAR by design if you must edit udef conf files | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | melkart: try running winecfg and running wine in an emulated desktop the size of your screen | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Almindor: it used to be a lot worse | 12:44 |
| linux_manju | Almindor: They provide sources.. so that smart people can plug the bug :) | 12:44 |

| ActionParsnip | Almindor: it's getting better but still you may need to play with files and junk | 12:45 |
| Almindor | so, where should I look for that setting then? | 12:45 |
| Ali_nz | is "sudo mount /dev/sda1 -t ntfs-3g -o force /storage" look right? | 12:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Ali_nz: change the mountpoint and options round | 12:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Ali_nz: also change -o force to -o force,uid=1000 | 12:46 |
| Almindor | or am I stuck with "sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt" until someone fixes this? :D | 12:46 |
| Ali_nz | sudo mount /storage -t ntfs-3g -o force /dev/sda1 | 12:46 |
| Ali_nz | ? | 12:46 |
| Ali_nz | although the first one I posted I tried and it seemed to work??? | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Ali_nz: sudo mount /dev/sda1 -t ntfs-36 /storage -o force,uid=1000 | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Ali_nz: if you use uid=1000 then users will be able to write to it, without it you will need to use sudo to write to it | 12:47 |
| Ali_nz | ahhh k | 12:48 |
| Ali_nz | and the -36? | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Ali_nz: thats a typo, supposed to be ntfs-3g | 12:48 |
| Ali_nz | haha - ok | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Almindor: nothing wront with that, i suggest you mount to a folder within /mnt | 12:49 |
| Almindor | linux_manju, regardless of the sources (and I am greatful for OSS) this shouldn't be in production release | 12:49 |

| dravekx | How can I install a remote GUI login for linux? | 15:03 |
| L3d_ | i tried a bunch also from ad/remove | 15:03 |
| ActionParsnip | L3d_: To remove everything firefox run: sudo apt-get --purge remove firefox*; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove | 15:04 |
| ActionParsnip | L3d_: you will then have no firefoxes at all on your system | 15:04 |
| Yanick_ | hi, I just added the sensors applet package and placed it in a new panel on the right of my screen. I wanted to know if it's possible to place the panel below the windows layer? | 15:04 |
| ActionParsnip | L3d_: you can also delete ~/.mozilla to delete all settings for it | 15:04 |
| JPSman | Seronis: thank you for the response. I have been trying to use explore2fs and it cant open the root.disk | 15:04 |
| netsurf3 | is there a way to refresh all package configuration. effectively doing a warm reinstall of a distro | 15:05 |
| Yanick_ | another question: while is the applet not using the system background? the panel's background is set to semi-transparent, but the applet's background is still the system's | 15:05 |
| Yanick_ | s/while/why | 15:05 |

| jonex | its in my desktop | 16:16 |
| Leoneof | Pici , yeah thank you, that is what i needed to do :-* | 16:16 |
| moncky | Milostrife: a little cron job to run iconfig eth0 down would do the trick, however anyone with sudo access could simply bring the interface backup | 16:16 |
| blendmaster1024 | ok, there should be a readme or install file | 16:16 |

| Milostrife | moncky: the people im trying to limit to dont know about sudo or theterminal but i can i set it up so that it would do it everyday without having to type the command into the laptop each night? | 16:18 |
| nicklas_ | kad_: why? | 16:19 |
| moncky | Milostrife: that is what cron is for | 16:19 |
| moncky | !cron | Milostrife | 16:19 |
| ubottu | Milostrife: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm | 16:19 |
| PauloTRX | anybody knows wich deb package can i configure with dpkp-reconfigure to select startup services ?? | 16:19 |
| moncky | Milostrife: so the idea is that you would wite a little bash script to bring the interface down and use cron to schedule that, and another script to bring it back upt | 16:19 |

| rotten777 | PauloTRX: are you familiar with runlevels? | 16:24 |

| nerdy_kid | for testing purposes | 16:25 |
| bazhang | #aircrack nerdy_kid | 16:25 |
| rotten777 | roll: vmware server? as in ESX? | 16:25 |
| moncky | Milostrife: if you dont need other network connectivity 'sudo ifconfig eth0 down' would do the trick | 16:25 |
| rotten777 | PauloTRX: I'm not sure how with dpkg-reconfigure but you can browse /etc/rc2.d/ and look for the enabled and disabled service startup scripts | 16:25 |
| moncky | Milostrife: eth0 may change if you pastebin the output of ifconfig i can give you the command for your system | 16:26 |
| PauloTRX | rotten777: i while ago i use a dpkg-reconfigure to set startup services such as mysqld, gdm etc... but know i need mysqld back and i dont remember wich ona was | 16:26 |
| nerdy_kid | bazhang i know, but it needs a kernel patch, which i cant get to apply right. download source for kernel 2.6.26 but it wont patch even though its the right version | 16:26 |
| roll | rotten777: no, just the free vmware server 2, not esx | 16:26 |
| Milostrife | moncky: sorry i didn't understand that | 16:26 |
| rotten777 | roll: sorry not familiar with that | 16:26 |
| rotten777 | PauloTRX: just look in the rc2.d directory and you should find K20mysqld or whatever and rename to S20mysqld | 16:27 |
| moncky | run sudo ifconfig in a terminal | 16:27 |
| Milostrife | moncky: done | 16:27 |
| PauloTRX | rotten777: i dont remember if it was dpkg-reconfigure or dpkg --configure | 16:27 |

| moncky | Milostrife: ok so you only have wifi connection to the net/? | 16:30 |

| hebo | hi i have problem with iso file and dvd , when i try to burn iso image to dvd i got this messege :-( /dev/sr0: media is not recognized as recordable DVD: 8 any idea ? | 16:30 |
| Milostrife | moncky: yes | 16:30 |
| th0r | nerdy_kid: you would have better luck with that question over on #aircrack or maybe #security | 16:31 |
| moncky | Milostrife: ok so to bing your interface down you would use the command; sudo ifconfig wlan0 down | 16:31 |
| nerdy_kid | th0r thanks didnt know about them | 16:31 |
| moncky | Milostrife: sudo ifconfig wlan0 up would bring it back on again | 16:31 |
| Milostrife | moncky: but would i have to enter that everytime i want to disconnet them? | 16:32 |

| raubvogel | I let the update manager install new updates in my 9.04 desktop. Since it installed some kernel-related stuff, I decided to reboot machine.

Is there a setting I may have screwed up? | 16:41 |
| moncky | Ranakah: please wait for somone else to verify my above advise | 16:41 |
| Ranakah | okay | 16:41 |

| monkey2 | I am trying to use rsync or unison to sync 2 directories, can I daemonize this? and does it execute when files have been modified or just on an interval? thanks | 16:49 |
| JPSman | how do I mount wubi's root.disk inside of livecd? | 16:49 |
| foo | I reinstalled windows on a separate drive and it overwrote GRUB. I tried using this, but it doesn't seem to work. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows ... I think that assumes that I installed windows on the same drive, maybe? So, I have linux on one drive, and windows on another... little different setup than before. | 16:49 |
| raubvogel | monkey2: you mean a cron job? | 16:49 |
| PauloTRX | rotten777: what about rcconf... can it be run without sudo? | 16:50 |
| Horatio_Hellpop | Anyone familiar with updating OpenSound? | 16:50 |
| PauloTRX | rotten777: i run rcconf with sudo and mysql is checked | 16:50 |
| rotten777 | PauloTRX: yes it can be but it isn't installed by default | 16:51 |
| PauloTRX | rotten777: i know | 16:51 |
| PauloTRX | rotten777: but that looks like it | 16:51 |
| rotten777 | PauloTRX: then you should probably dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0 or whatever package it is because if rc is showing it set to run at startup and it isn't starting, then there is something with the configuration of that package and not the startup services | 16:51 |
| PauloTRX | rotten777: thx man... | 16:52 |
| monkey2 | raubvogel: I don't want to do a cron job, i don't want to run it on an interval, i want it to execute as files are changed | 16:53 |
| rotten777 | PauloTRX: no problem | 16:53 |

| jlebar | A while ago, I modified some settings on my system to remap my Macbook's super key to alt and the alt key to ctrl. Now I just got an external Windows keyboard and I want to change the settings back. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find the tutorial I originally found, and I haven't been able to figure out how to undo the changes! Most tutorials suggest modifying ~/.Xmodmap, which I didn't do. I've tried grepping all the text file | 17:01 |

| stew | AceKing: be more specific than "didn't work" | 17:51 |
| sebsebseb | Tutty: also if you have enough RAM, you can virtual machine Windows inside Ubuntu :) then if you get a virus, you can just delete the vm like a normal file, or use a clean copy of it, or quickly re install the OS into a vm | 17:51 |

| sebsebseb | Tutty: I got the bot to give you a link, a little while ago, that explains how to restore Grub | 17:54 |
| Dimitree | Chubbz, that didn't work, it says it can not find the .deb file altho i filled the name with Tab and the deb file is indeed on my desktop :/ | 17:54 |

| Tutty | so go into terminal, type sudo grub, then find boot/grub/stage1 -- correct? | 17:55 |

| AceKing | stew: th0r: forgive me for sounding stupid, but is the "path" the cd rom? | 17:55 |
| L1NUX1Z3R | Tutty, yes,,,there's a bit more to do after that | 17:55 |
| Tutty | sebsebseb, yes i read it. i actually do want to do that so i can play games like full tilt poker on ubuntu lol | 17:55 |
| L1NUX1Z3R | let me write the whole thing then send u a link | 17:55 |
| th0r | AceKing: no, the path is the full path/filename where you want to store the .iso file | 17:55 |
| stew | AceKing: so you want to create an iso, right? where do you want to put it? in /tmp? then use /tmp/ubuntu.iso for instance | 17:55 |
| Tutty | yes, that'd be great L1NUX1Z3R, thanks! | 17:55 |
| stew | AceKing: like "cp /dev/cdrom /tmp/ubuntu.iso" | 17:55 |
| sebsebseb | Tutty: is that game 2D or 3D? | 17:55 |
| Tutty | 2D.. just a poker application | 17:56 |
| wildc4rd | evenin' all | 17:56 |
| Tutty | but it doesn't work with Wine | 17:56 |
| th0r | stew: I don't think cp will work...if it is a bootable cd cp won't get the boot sector | 17:56 |
| sebsebseb | Tutty: should work in the vm | 17:56 |
| AceKing | stew: Ok, thanks.. sorry about that. I'm still new to Ubuntu | 17:56 |

| goldins | what | 18:25 |
| thehook | [PdC]Duplicity: it means it will get a new address in 17878 seconds | 18:25 |

| goldins | it does auto-renewals every 17878 seconds, set by the dhcp server you're connecting to | 18:25 |
| goldins | oh | 18:25 |
| goldins | that means that the dhcp server on the other side is smart | 18:25 |

| [PdC]Duplicity | hmmm. | 18:25 |
| [PdC]Duplicity | i need to change this ip | 18:26 |

| erUSUL | [PdC]Duplicity: mst dhcp servers give allways the same ip to a given computer if they can | 18:26 |
| thehook | [PdC]Duplicity: oh, you have to call your ISP to do that | 18:26 |

| Flannel | linduxed: The root account is locked, *no* password will work. | 18:54 |
| unop | linduxed, well, on ubuntu by default, the root account is locked/disabled - and so, no amount of bruteforcing will allow someone to use su to become root. | 18:55 |

| Mamoncete | erUSUL, except my personal computer, the rest in the office are XP, so does that mean that I have to install something in each one? | 18:57 |

| Mamoncete | erUSUL, is it possible to automate it? | 18:59 |
| phoenixz | losher: with ... | 18:59 |
| erUSUL | dewman: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /mount/point | 18:59 |
| erUSUL | Mamoncete: with a nameserver i guess | 18:59 |
| phoenixz | losher: point I was trying to make was more like.. Why imitate the WORST text processor ever, which still has all the same basic problems... microsoft office..] | 18:59 |
| Mamoncete | erUSUL, but, enabeling a DHCP will interfier with the router we already have, won't it? | 18:59 |
| phoenixz | why not work like word perfect, which always was easy and fast to work with. | 19:00 |
| d34dh4ck | i wasn't recomending it, just stating that you could, sorry for the confusion, | 19:00 |
| Mamoncete | erUSUL, sorry I meant DNS | 19:00 |

| losher | phoenixz: and don't even get me started on the multimedia apps.... | 19:01 |
| Mamoncete | erUSUL, I have access to the router, but I don't know what should I do...we usually have there the DNS ips of our ISP | 19:01 |
| Mamoncete | erUSUL, I would like to link 10.10.10.210 to "intranet" | 19:02 |
| phoenixz | losher: well, that would just require a user interface redesign.. not the biggest deal in the world, I suppose.. but how open office works is just horrible.. just like microsoft office, which is also a monster nightmare | 19:02 |
| phoenixz | losher: amarok (1 that is) had a perfect design | 19:02 |
| phoenixz | 2 is horrible | 19:02 |
| BlackBerry | hello i'm back | 19:02 |
| Mamoncete | erUSUL, so, anybody that writes "intranet " in the Web Browser URL would be forwarded to the web server in 10.10.10.210 | 19:02 |
| phoenixz | but amarok one was sweet to say the least | 19:02 |
| erUSUL | Mamoncete: my home router has a Lan clients section where i can set static ip adresses asociated with a hostname | 19:03 |
| dewman | erUSUL, That was easy. | 19:03 |
| losher | phoenixz: 'just requiring a user interface redesign' is a bit like say 'just requires a complete recoding from scratch'. There's nothing 'just' about it.... | 19:03 |
| Mamoncete | erUSUL, I'll check out ours here, but on the other hand, if I wouldn't want to touch the router, ...I can install the BIND DNS server in the linux machine, will that interfiere with the DNS configured in the router? | 19:04 |
| CyclopsCaveman | Ubuntu is giving me a black screen during boot on my PPC (version 9.04) is there any way to fix this? | 19:04 |
| phoenixz | losher: if you see what the gimp has going in code behind the user interface.. | 19:04 |
| erUSUL | Mamoncete: i do think that bind will be overkill and clients of the network will ask the dns's configured in the router (the ones of your isp) | 19:05 |
| losher | phoenixz: so who 'improved' amarok 1 into amarok 2, and why? | 19:05 |
| petx | hi all... I try to disable any startup programs... any idea?? | 19:06 |
| phoenixz | losher: I dunno who, I do know that they are completely redoing the userinterface after half the KDE users barfed over it.. but seriously, amarok is (Arguably) the best music player I've seen so far.. | 19:06 |

| Flannel | Squideshi: /opt/ is for software that's not under package management and also is collected together into its own file structure. /usr/bin/ is where stuff goes when installed from the repositories, and then /usr/local/bin is for software you install (not under package management) that does use the more common linux filestructure stuff. | 19:11 |

| blackxored | hello all I got this friend asking of IM webcam support, do you know a multiproto which has it? | 19:17 |
| sebsebseb | LexLuth0r: Windows viruses won't work on Linux, well some of them may partially work in Wine, but other then that nope | 19:17 |
| erUSUL | Mamoncete: samba and windows uses windbind to resolve names... it is a separate system | 19:17 |
| Myrtti | blackxored: none | 19:17 |
| erUSUL | mazda01: use avidemux is a video editor | 19:17 |
| dewman | erUSUL, Are you still around? | 19:18 |
| blackxored | Myrtti, and with support for one protocol we only have msn right? | 19:18 |
| nat__ | ok. so it appears that i can't connect via WPA or WEP, but unsecured seems to work fine. i've switched to using wicd. but i'm getting the same sort of issue. | 19:18 |
| erUSUL | dewman: yes | 19:18 |
| Myrtti | blackxored: and skype, and sip | 19:18 |

| Keiffer | How do I Tar all my ubuntu? | 19:19 |
| apoleo12_ | flannel: that alt n and p is for pages scrolling and where is this 'act' from? | 19:19 |
| blackxored | there's anyone working on this webcam integration, how many would want it solved? | 19:19 |
| Flannel | apoleo12_: ctrl-p/n is window scrolling. | 19:19 |
| dewman | erUSUL, do i need to do a chmod? | 19:19 |
| blackxored | if v4l is working with ekiga and the like why not with IM clients? what's the difference | 19:20 |
| DJNomad | Blackxorred, I think a msn does it all | 19:20 |
| apoleo12_ | Flannel: strange, not here ctrl+p,n doesnt work.. only alt +n,p is page scrollinghere | 19:20 |
| dewman | erUSUL, Ok. | 19:20 |
| erUSUL | Keiffer: maybe it is better to use partimage | 19:20 |
| mazda01 | erUSUL, when I use a stopwatch it appears that the sound is about 4.5 seconds ahead of the video. so I need to shift it -4500 in avidemux right? | 19:20 |

| Myrtti | blackxored: the support for webcameras isn't built on every client | 19:21 |
| erUSUL | mazda01: i guess | 19:21 |
| apoleo12_ | im in irssi and i cannot text in there | 19:21 |
| erUSUL | blackxored: amsn supports webcam for msn | 19:21 |
| blackxored | Myrtti, obviously, my question how many of you would want pidgin to have webcam support, what are upstream plans about it? | 19:22 |
| dewman | erUSUL, Vola! it worked....Thank You. | 19:22 |
| erUSUL | dewman: no problem | 19:22 |
| sebsebseb | blackxored: Pidgin is going to get replaced as the default IM program in the next Ubuntu by another one | 19:22 |

| DJNomad | cool I may look into using it | 19:23 |
| gnat_x | man this WPA connection thing is driving me nuts. seems like there's nothing i can to do to get my credentials accepted with the router. | 19:24 |
| blackxored | sebastien, I think is for empathy and IMHO empathy isn't ready yet, what do we need to do it's contribute to pidgin, but that's offtopic here | 19:24 |
| JeremyBicha1 | Pidgin is more functional than empathy though | 19:24 |
| Myrtti | blackxored: pidgin is going to be replaced with empathy in the future releases because the probabilities of pidgin getting webcam support is less than for snowballs survival in hell. | 19:25 |

| blackxored | don't tell me empathy has wc support? | 19:26 |

| sebsebseb | somePriest: I mean an idea or two | 20:11 |
| pt1989 | how to make Shiretoko default browser (Shiretoko = FF 3.5) | 20:11 |
| keylocker | gtk apps render the title bar correctly and maximizes the application | 20:11 |
| somePriest | sebastien, Well I can get it working in `cheese`, but doesn't work in Skype (just shows up all green). Followed directions from at least 5 different pages I googled, none worked. | 20:11 |
| keylocker | but qt apps stay "windowned" and i cant fit it in the window | 20:11 |
| losher | somePriest: it's a fact that linux often needs more tinkering to get stuff working. If you don't care for all that, there's no shame in going back to windows.... | 20:12 |
| somePriest | sebastien, But its the combination of no games, apparently poor burning software, flakey webcam support etc etc that is building up and being a nuisance. | 20:12 |
| keylocker | someone know how can i solve or report as bug (and what is responsable) | 20:12 |
| keylocker | ? | 20:12 |
| pt1989 | losher: windows needs more bullshit, without any guarantee that things will work | 20:12 |

| somePriest | losher, I've actually worked as a developer under Linux for nearing 3 years with the Department of National Defence. Never been big on it as a desktop machine though. | 20:12 |
| dew | Trijntje yea have done that twice am trying to continue with install with 254 RAM | 20:12 |
| keylocker | erUSUL: i dont know what is doing thi | 20:13 |
| somePriest | sebastien, VMs are SO slow though. | 20:13 |
| keylocker | s | 20:13 |
| keylocker | i think is metacity, but i dont know how netbook remix interface works | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: not for me :) | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: once installed | 20:13 |
| somePriest | losher - Vista was too slow on my machine, so I figured I'd once again try Linux. | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: oh Vista yeah that may be slow in a vm, but xp should be ok | 20:13 |
| somePriest | losher - But I now remember why I went Windows previous :) | 20:13 |
| Trijntje | dew: when the minimal is 256, the install should fail. But i dont get why windows would think you only have 254 MB | 20:13 |
| losher | pt1989: it's not an agrument we're allowed to have on this channel. We could move it to #ubuntu-offtopic if I cared, which I don't really, as it's an old, old argument | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: how much RAM do you have? | 20:13 |
| somePriest | sebastien, 1.5 GB which should be sufficient for Vista. | 20:14 |
| Trijntje | dew: You should ask again i think, i cant help you | 20:14 |
| pt1989 | losher, ok | 20:14 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: for a psyical install yes, and you can probably just about do it in a vm, Vista is a resource hog | 20:14 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: XP will be fine in a vm though | 20:14 |
| keylocker | erUSUL: some idea? | 20:14 |
| dew | Trijntje zomg this sucks. Yea its downloading ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso now | 20:14 |
| somePriest | sebastien, Woudln't want to do gaming in a VM though. Although I do quite enjoy Moria, and can't do that natively in MS. | 20:15 |
| === jozen is now known as thc\sEEk | ||
| sebsebseb | somePriest: well I said vm for webcam, not gaming | 20:15 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: why boot up a psyical Windows install, when you don't have to? | 20:15 |
| somePriest | sebastien, I know what you said :) I want both. Although I suppose I could settle for moria, less addictive then my WOW anyway. | 20:15 |
| Trijntje | dew: that might be easier. windows is weird | 20:15 |
| deco | can anyone recommend a good linux powered web host? | 20:16 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: you can still have your dualboot, but also have a vm of Windows inside Ubuntu :) for the web cam and what not | 20:16 |
| dew | Trijntje lol yea i dont understand. it worked b4.?> | 20:16 |
| muibe | hi! how can i fix fstab so that every removable drive, dvd-rw and extras ide that are added later on will be just read-only? | 20:16 |
| somePriest | sebastien, Can't really dual boot, small hard disk. Looking for work, when I find it, I'll buy myself another much larger disk then I could do it :) Or a second machine. | 20:17 |
| === op is now known as treetopj | ||
| sebsebseb | somePriest: oh | 20:17 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: well how big is the disk? | 20:17 |
| somePriest | sebastien, 60GB. Windows install is damn near 20, WOW is another 15, etc. It disappears fast. | 20:18 |
| IndyGunFreak | so just give 10 to ubuntu. | 20:18 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: your on Windows right now? | 20:18 |
| somePriest | sebastien, This is ubuntu. | 20:18 |

| sebsebseb | shinran: ok what do you want help with? | 20:20 |
| somePriest | sebastien, Ya, I've seen people *claim* they get the same FPS under Wine. They must be snorting glue. :) | 20:20 |
| shinran | me well is this like blogging or what | 20:20 |
| oldude67 | shinran this like help and support | 20:20 |

| niadh | my audio has stopped playing, randomly, what might be the issue? | 20:23 |
| Kalmi | !sound | niadh | 20:24 |
| ubottu | niadh: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 20:24 |

| humbolt | how do I do network authentication with the least amount of work | 20:25 |
| sebsebseb | niadh: you can run killall pulseaudio && sudo alsa force-reload in the terminal and you will probably get your sound back | 20:25 |
| fwaokda | I'm trying to get my grub menu's "Windows Vista" option to point to the proper place... How do I find out what the proper place is though? | 20:25 |
| ahmed-araby | Is there's command line tool available to check for correct IPV4 ? | 20:26 |
| niadh | Yeah, I changed from pulse audio to alsa, and as a last resort tried oss | 20:26 |
| dew | Trijntje k ill c if this downloads and installs. will get back to you asap. | 20:26 |
| niadh | I also rebooted and the issue has persisted | 20:26 |
| sebsebseb | niadh: oh | 20:26 |
| sebsebseb | niadh: well change things back to how they were and it's worth trying the command I just gave | 20:27 |
| Trijntje | dew: i hope it works! | 20:27 |

| niadh | sebsebsed: It's not worked, it's probably worth noting i changed my motherboard but the sound worked for well over a week before it simply ceased | 20:28 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, ok it says its /dev/sdd1 ... but how do I find out what that means what I put in the "rootnoverify" option of my grub menu... or is that what I put there? | 20:28 |
| redsoxking | I'm having a problem with apps automatically minimizing any clue how to fix this, just started | 20:29 |

| epalm | why does ubuntu install rhythmbox with ubuntu-server :S | 20:29 |
| niadh | sebsebsed: Is there not a command to reinstall the kernel and reinitialise the drivers? | 20:29 |
| sebsebseb | niadh: well Linux users in ##hardware as well, they may have some ideas | 20:29 |
| sebsebseb | niadh: and I don't think trying to re install the kernel, or installing a later one, will do much good | 20:30 |
| pepperjack | epalm: i can't imagine that it does | 20:30 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: sdd1 is hd3,0 | 20:30 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, thanks! I'll try that out now :) | 20:31 |
| RobOakes | /join #pyqt | 20:31 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: You conver a, b, c, d, etc into 1, 2, 3, 4, and then take the 1234 afterwards as 1234, and then subtract one from each (so d1 becomes 4,1 which you subtract and get 3,0) | 20:31 |

| somePriest | sebastien, Language? I don't recall swearing. | 20:42 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: you just did | 20:42 |
| losher | somePriest: so where is the message coming from? The makefile? A #include? Can you find it? | 20:42 |
| somePriest | sebastien, How was that any more swearing than saying "The F word" | 20:42 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, I tried (hd3,0) and it said "Loading Stage2" you know what that's all about... it never went into windows just stayed there | 20:42 |
| losher | somePriest: we are strict about g-rated language on this channel... | 20:43 |
| sebsebseb | somePriest: it still counts as swearing what you just did | 20:43 |
| somePriest | losher, They provide a *.run script. So I run it, and its the output. | 20:43 |
| somePriest | losher, At least its the end of the output, after messages about uncompressing it. | 20:43 |
| losher | somePriest: I thought you said you were a developer. Find the test that causes the message, and see what it's checking for.... | 20:43 |
| JohnTeddy | somePriest / arand , does ifconfig tell the gateway and dns? How can I have ifconfig just print the ip, then just print the gateway, then just print the dns? | 20:44 |
| somePriest | losher, It seems that default_policy.sh is returning a value that doesn't match uname -a at a guess, that doesn't really tell me the proper fix though. | 20:44 |
| somePriest | JohnTeddy, A nasty string of `cut`? | 20:45 |
| JohnTeddy | somePriest: I don't see where ifconfig tells me the gateway or dns anywhere. | 20:45 |
| Lynx-O | legend2440: I'M ON MY PC I WANT TO watch them on my ps3 via network | 20:46 |
| th0r | JohnTeddy: the gateway is in 'route' and the dns is in resolv.conf | 20:46 |
| losher | somePriest: but it does give me some ideas for a couple of workarounds. a) comment out the test & maybe you'll be lucky and the version mismatch won't matter or b) find the kernel version that matches and install it | 20:46 |
| losher | JohnTeddy: gateway comes from 'netstart -rn'. dns is in /etc/resolv.conf. No doubt there's a gui command which shows it all, but I don't know it. | 20:47 |
| legend2440 | Lynx-O: ok i understand. if no one here knows the answer to your question maybe someone in channel #ubuntu-ps3 knows | 20:47 |

| fwaokda | DWonderly, 400gb is my ubuntu disk | 20:58 |
| erUSUL | rich_: not strange at all given that was AMD who *designed* and first implemented the x86_64 extensions to ia32 | 20:58 |

| tokam | the usb creator is still installed how to use it now, i want to write a bootable image to a 2gb sd card is this possible? | 21:00 |
| arand | tokam: usb-creator comes with ubuntu per default: Boot the livecd, go to (menu)system>administartion>USB startup disk creator, select the iso you want to stick on the usb ('other' button) and it should be ready to boot (make sure your bios can boot from usb when you try running it) | 21:01 |
| somePriest | losher, heh, default_policy.sh auto returns an error when you pass it the --printpolicy argument which is in fact being passed to it. | 21:01 |

| losher | fwaokda: what's on /dev/sda1 btw? | 21:02 |
| divokz | I'm really surprised I can't find this on the web: how do I assign applications to specific workspaces? (i.e. I always want Firefox to be in workspace 1, etc a la OS X Leopard) | 21:02 |
| ikonia | tokam: normally a gui | 21:02 |
| Kalmi | artillerytx, that's not the prefered method | 21:02 |
| tokam | where to find it | 21:02 |
| colloguy | divokz: system prefs -> expose and spaces | 21:03 |
| artillerytx | Kalmi: well i can't find the drivers for my NIC and i've tried everything | 21:03 |
| fwaokda | losher, not quite sure but I believe windows 7 installed it there during installation and it's label "SYSTEM" (if I remember correctly) | 21:03 |
| Kalmi | artillerytx, can you pastebin the output of the dmesg command? | 21:03 |
| divokz | colloguy: I know how to do it in OS X -- I want the same type of behavior in GNOME/Ubuntu | 21:03 |
| ikonia | tokam: on the menu as you've been told | 21:03 |
| artillerytx | Kalmi: i have to type it all out | 21:03 |
| ikonia | divokz: join an apple support channel | 21:03 |
| colloguy | oh heh I forgot I'm in the wrong channel | 21:03 |
| colloguy | wait now I'm confused | 21:03 |
| tokam | ahh ok sorry! | 21:03 |
| Kalmi | artillerytx, oh... :) pendrive? | 21:04 |
| colloguy | yeah, I'm in the wrong channel :P | 21:04 |
| DWonderly | fwaokda you installed windows after Linux or vice versa? | 21:04 |
| losher | fwaokda: sounds like you need to research that a bit more. Meanwhile, no harm trying to boot from /dev/sda2 as hd(0,1) | 21:04 |
| artillerytx | Kalmi: alright just a second | 21:04 |
| bamp | Are there more detailed power options that can be tweaked in Jaunty? I've already gone through the "power options" GUI, but I'd like to tweak them a bit more if possible. | 21:04 |

| ikonia | dads: multiple kernels | 21:05 |
| dads | how can I control them | 21:05 |
| fwaokda | DWonderly, losher - going to restart and try booting from hd(0,1) | 21:05 |
| BellinXFelon | i am trying to play streaming video in konqueror and have no sound, what can i do | 21:05 |
| ikonia | dads: what do you mean control them ? | 21:05 |
| somePriest | losher, Hrm, hard to say, lots of inter-related tests. This script is called by another script. And values they assign end up with an empty string. This is disgusting. | 21:05 |
| losher | fwaokda: fingers crossed | 21:05 |
| DWonderly | fwaokda what do you use for boot options? Grub? or to you change the bios? | 21:05 |
| fwaokda | losher in the grub is that written "hd(0,1)" OR "(hd0,1)" ? | 21:05 |
| dads | I have a fresh format and install of only one 9.04, why then are there more than one kernel | 21:06 |
| losher | somePriest: all it takes is one lazy, bad programmer | 21:06 |
| tokam | i reformated the usb stick with fdisk, how to force ubuntu to reload all informations about the device again? | 21:06 |
| ikonia | dads: what do the options say | 21:06 |
| === artillerytx_ is now known as chrislabeard | ||
| Kalmi | artillerytx, also check whether you can see your NIC in the output of lspci | 21:06 |
| ikonia | tokam: unplug it and re-plug it back in | 21:06 |
| fwaokda | DWonderly, after I installed Windows then I installed Ubuntu, but to get it to boot to the Grub, I swapped to the 400gb disk to boot first in the bios | 21:06 |
| dads | one is mem one is generic one is.... | 21:06 |
| losher | fwaokda: root (hd0,0) <--- note the space before the left parenthesis | 21:06 |
| ikonia | dads: one is a memtest program for testing memory, one is ubuntu, the other is ubuntu "safe" mode incase you have any problems | 21:07 |
| fwaokda | so the entire line should read... "rootnoverify (hd0,0)" ? | 21:07 |
| CopyWriter | all this penguine emphesis leads me to wonder, do penguines have knees? | 21:07 |
| fwaokda | losher, so the entire line should read... "rootnoverify (hd0,0)" ? | 21:07 |
| dads | is there a way to remove the ones I dont use.. such as the mem? | 21:07 |
| ikonia | CopyWriter: not ontopic for this channel, thanks. | 21:07 |
| DWonderly | fwaokda losher correct me if im wrong but didn't Vista have problems booting to a non primary drive in bios? if so then would that programming change over to Win7? | 21:07 |
| fwaokda | losher, well 0,1 I mean | 21:07 |
| ikonia | dads: just ignore them if you don't need them | 21:07 |
| losher | fwaokda: yes. If you google, you'll see lots of examples... | 21:07 |
| somePriest | losher, You think it'd be tested though. | 21:07 |
| bamp | I'm trying to reduce disk usage in order to save battery life -- I'm considering reducing swappiness (I have 4 gigs of system memory) ... is this a good idea? | 21:07 |
| fwaokda | losher, k thanks | 21:07 |
| CopyWriter | yes, sorry i know i was just thinking out loud | 21:08 |
| fwaokda | DWonderly, ok well if it doesn't work I'll come back and explore that option BRB | 21:08 |

| artillerytx | Argyanc: http://paste.ubuntu.com/231408/ | 21:10 |
| DWonderly | losher what would explain that it started to boot then got hung up during the boot. | 21:10 |
| bamp | ikonia: I was talking about the swappiness option, not actually reducing swap space | 21:10 |
| ikonia | bamp: I've never heard of the swappiness option | 21:10 |
| dads | Im sure when a new kernel comes out, Ill have too many choices on my fresh desktop too/. | 21:10 |
| wellbourne | xShadowx = try Super Grub Disk it can fix grub automatically | 21:10 |
| losher | DWonderly: depends exactly where it hangs.... | 21:10 |
| arand | xShadowx: so you are trying to get back ntldr, and yes, subergrubdisk is good for that job | 21:11 |
| wellbourne | its a live cd boot from it and follow the walkthrough | 21:11 |
| xShadowx | Well actually, I dual booted vista and kubuntu and I uninstalled kubuntu and I can't boot in to vista now. Will Super Grub fix that? | 21:11 |
| losher | somePriest: yeah, that's why there are never any bugs --- because every programmer is brilliant and testers never miss anything.... | 21:11 |
| artillerytx | Argyanc: What you looking for in there ? | 21:11 |
| DWonderly | losher he said "loading stage 2" I've never used or looked into Win7 so I don't know what each stage loads | 21:11 |
| Argyanc | artillerytx, err... sorry about the name change... I didn't think it through :) Have you checked whether you can see your NIC in the output of lspc? | 21:12 |
| bamp | ikonia: oh... you add the linke "vm.swappiness=[number]" to sysctl.conf. From what i gather, it controls how readily memory gets written to the swap partition | 21:12 |
| wellbourne | xShadowx, yes it will fix dual boots | 21:12 |
| bamp | *line | 21:12 |
| PROject-Emerald | Uh | 21:12 |
| PROject-Emerald | I updated to 9.10 alpha and now I have no sound ;_; | 21:12 |
| xShadowx | Okay, thank you. | 21:12 |
| somePriest | losher, It seems a fairly large bug when the installer bails immediately after extracting the files though. | 21:12 |
| artillerytx | yeah i can show you what it says just a second | 21:12 |
| ikonia | bamp: just remove the swap partition then, but I don't think that will make a difference as your disk will still be spinning if you write to swap or not | 21:12 |
| losher | DWonderly: stage2 is a grub thing. I'm not sure if it runs when windows boots.... | 21:12 |
| losher | somePriest: I used to work for a networking company & we used to ship boxes that didn't even ping... | 21:13 |

| Argyanc | artillerytx... WTH? :D | 21:15 |
| Argyanc | artillerytx, do you have multiple NICs? | 21:15 |

| soapbox | If I can use the ls command | 21:46 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, it's probably because the folder is owned by root | 21:46 |
| soapbox | and list the items in the directory that way that means I do have permission right? | 21:46 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, in ssh, go to that folder and do a ls -la and see who the owner is | 21:46 |
| soapbox | <MaskedDriver> soapbox, it's probably because the folder is owned by root | 21:46 |
| soapbox | What kind of problems can it cause when the folder is owned by root and you are logged in as root? | 21:47 |
| soapbox | Do I need to disassociate it with root somehow | 21:47 |
| soapbox | ? | 21:47 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, you FTP in as your username... you ssh as root (which is highly unrecommended)... if your folder is owned by root you can't play around with it | 21:47 |
| MaskedDriver | so in ssh go to the parent folder and do ls -la | 21:48 |
| Argyanc | soapbox, root can do anything without any security restrictions... | 21:48 |
| soapbox | alright masked | 21:48 |
| MaskedDriver | if it says root root it's owned by root | 21:48 |

| moustafaza | In the top bar of the gnome, at the right their is my name when I click on it I can choose to logout, lockscreen, change my pidgin status, etc... Their is a problem in the order of these choices, they're mixed up. Does anyone know if their is the configuration of it I can edit it in a file or something to fix it? | 21:48 |

| soapbox | oh | 21:49 |
| MaskedDriver | 132? | 21:49 |
| soapbox | you're right maskeddriver | 21:49 |
| soapbox | it's root | 21:49 |

| MaskedDriver | soapbox, ofc I'm right ;) | 21:49 |
| soapbox | lol | 21:49 |
| soapbox | Of course! | 21:49 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, sudo chown username:username image_script_pics | 21:49 |
| loois | liquidplay: btw, if you are going to use xorg-edgers ppa for intel, use the 2.6.31rc3 kernel NOT rc4. rc4 will cause a blank screen (maybe) | 21:50 |
| soapbox | can you explain that command I don | 21:50 |
| soapbox | t understand username:username | 21:50 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, the username you ftp into | 21:50 |
| MaskedDriver | lets say my username is bob | 21:50 |

| MaskedDriver | soapbox, the first bob is the user, the second bob is the group | 21:51 |
| Clooluss | paxeas: what sort of prob? | 21:51 |
| soapbox | so you're basically telling me how to give my ftp user permission | 21:51 |
| l3dx | and what sort of card | 21:51 |
| soapbox | that's perfect btw | 21:51 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, exactly | 21:51 |
| MaskedDriver | chown = change owner | 21:52 |
| Praxeas | When I go to the hardware drivers, I don't see any drivers for my video card and I am not sure where to go to find a hardware profile (for lack of a better word) | 21:52 |
| soapbox | I don't need to sudo though right | 21:52 |
| soapbox | since I am logged in as root | 21:52 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, no, you can skip sudo... but you should never log in as root... nasty things can happen | 21:52 |
| soapbox | they just HAPPEN? | 21:53 |
| Clooluss | praxeas: hardware and drivers are usually pretty transparent in ubuntu. what card is it? | 21:53 |
| joey_ | i am from Australia and am trying to watch tv through xine and i can seem to get the scan command right to generate a channels.conf What is the correct command | 21:53 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, you can accidentally run a command that will screw up your whole system | 21:53 |
| soapbox | fair enough | 21:53 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, sudo is the appropriate way to accomplish root commands | 21:53 |
| Praxeas | its an old laptop. I want to say I have a nvidea | 21:54 |
| soapbox | On the live server we don't log in as root | 21:54 |
| Clooluss | prax: nvidia is well supported, but most of the drivers are closed source. That's not a big deal for most people though | 21:54 |
| soapbox | this is a backup server and has (basically) nothing on it. You're right though I should have better good practices | 21:54 |
| * MaskedDriver runs as root on my personal machine too | 21:54 | |
| dayo | soapbox: MaskedDriver: i once accidentally deleted half my users' home directories from the fileserver | 21:54 |
| soapbox | rofl oh god i'd be so pissed | 21:54 |
| MaskedDriver | dayo, +1 exactly | 21:54 |
| soapbox | ya I'll change it | 21:55 |
| Clooluss | prax: Look at the right of your top panel. Is there a little hardware icon there, near the netowrk icon? | 21:55 |
| dayo | soapbox: MaskedDriver: lucky for me, i have a backup server lol | 21:55 |
| MaskedDriver | dayo, very lucky | 21:55 |
| Praxeas | just my battery indication | 21:55 |
| om26er | each time I restart my netbook wifi don't work and I have to modprobe ath5k | 21:55 |
| dayo | MaskedDriver: yep | 21:56 |
| soapbox | Backup servers save lives | 21:56 |
| th0r | om26er: add ath5k to /etc/modules | 21:56 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, most usually your own | 21:56 |
| soapbox | yep | 21:56 |
| soapbox | alright permissions are changed here is the moment of truth! | 21:56 |
| soapbox | Worked instantly | 21:57 |
| soapbox | thank you MaskedDriver | 21:57 |
| Clooluss | prax: in synaptic package manager, install the nvidia settings tool. it should find your hardware and driver for you. | 21:57 |
| Mx60 | Hi, hmm, i have some troubles. | 21:57 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, my pleasure | 21:57 |
| Mx60 | I have a dedicated server which is running Ubuntu server | 21:57 |
| Praxeas | ok thanks | 21:57 |
| Mx60 | And I would like to install gnome + a vnc server | 21:57 |
| Mx60 | So, I think that gnome is running well, cause startx seems to run fine | 21:58 |
| Praxeas | new to ubuntu so I imagine I'll be spending a lot of time here :) | 21:58 |
| Mx60 | But I don't know how I can have my vnc server working correctly | 21:58 |
| MaskedDriver | soapbox, is this a web server? because if you plan on having apache right to the server the group should be whatever group is set up for apache | 21:58 |
| paragon | Synaptic Package Manager, sometimes the newly installed program does not show up in the Main Menu under any of the fields. I have attempted to add the program through the "Main Menu" Preferences functionality, but it is not listed there either. If the file "shortcut" is not automatically created how do I create that and add it to the main menu? I know that "New Item" should be selected, but from there I am lost. | 21:58 |
| MaskedDriver | apache upload right to the server* | 21:58 |
| th0r | Mx60: you might want to consider an alternative | 21:58 |
| Mx60 | th0r > Which one ? :p | 21:58 |
| tech2 | Praxeas: Google is your friend | 21:59 |
| th0r | Mx60: the purpose of the server is not to run the X environment, so why load it down with that task? Consider instead running something like xfce and using X forwarding via ssh....much faster and easier on system resources | 21:59 |
| om26er | th0r: I did it and it worked thanks | 21:59 |
| DWonderly | k, n00b question... if GTK+ isn't installed properly how to I fix that? | 22:00 |
| ikonia | DWonderly: why would gtk+ not be install properly, it's installed by default | 22:00 |
| Mx60 | th0r > Hmm... I plan using wine too on my dedicated server | 22:00 |
| Mx60 | th0r > To run some windows application in background | 22:00 |
| lstarnes | DWonderly: what is reporting that it isn't installed properly? | 22:00 |
| th0r | Mx60: you don't get the full desktop like vnc, but you still get all the advantages of the windowed environment | 22:00 |
| DWonderly | trying to ./configure a prog and it's crashing out for that reason | 22:00 |
| Clooluss | i got dvd playback problems. I have all the medibuntu libdvd* stuff installed and can watch old dvds fine, but newer dvds just won't mount. | 22:00 |
| ikonia | DWonderly: what are you trying to build | 22:00 |
| lstarnes | DWonderly: you need the -dev packages | 22:00 |
| Mx60 | th0r > Enough to run wine and other applications like that ? | 22:00 |
| th0r | Mx60: you can still do that, no problem | 22:01 |

| DWonderly | Do'H dev... | 22:01 |
| lstarnes | DWonderly: install the package libgtk2.0-dev | 22:01 |
| th0r | Mx60: it is probably a better way to go if you want to run wine...the less cpu and memory you use with vnc the more is available for wine and such | 22:01 |
| DWonderly | lstarnes thank you | 22:01 |
| xantam | i just created a new user with useradd -d $userdir$ | 22:01 |
| xantam | but i can't use that user for ssh | 22:02 |
| DarkMx | sORRY i WAS DISCONECTED | 22:02 |
| th0r | Mx60: the purpose for vnc is to allow you to use/maintain the server in the X environment. You will still be able to do that my way, but you will do it on YOUR desktop instead of one shipped to you from the server | 22:02 |
| DarkMx | th0r > Well in fact | 22:02 |
| DarkMx | I have other reasons to use VNC | 22:02 |
| xantam | it asks me for the password but when i enter the right one i get: Permission denied, please try again. | 22:02 |
| DarkMx | I have a VNC client on my phone that allows me to connect to my server anywhere | 22:03 |
| DarkMx | But well I might install it later i'm gonna try to install xfce first | 22:03 |
| th0r | DarkMx: ok....it was just a thought | 22:03 |

| koltroll | I'd like to be a little bigger so the icons of the programs I have active gets bigger. | 22:10 |

| DarkMx | I don't know how to use it without using vnc | 22:11 |
| DarkMx | I mean | 22:11 |
| DarkMx | What do you mean by "using the shell" | 22:11 |
| Clooluss | koltroll: yes. right click the pnel, properties, change the pixel size. | 22:11 |
| Ziber | jrib: Oh, would you look at that... | 22:11 |
| th0r | DarkMx: did I use that term? | 22:12 |

| === impErvius is now known as impervius | ||
| DarkMx | But you said without a vnc server | 22:12 |

| DarkMx | X forwarding via ssh... Riiiight XD | 22:13 |
| koltroll | Clooluss, sorry the only option ive got is "show windows from all workspaces" | 22:13 |
| atomic007za | hi | 22:13 |
| DarkMx | Is it like port forwarding ? | 22:13 |
| DarkMx | Like ip tables etc.. , | 22:13 |
| DarkMx | ?* | 22:13 |
| koltroll | Clooluss, what you are saying WAS true when I had normal ubuntu and a sidepanel, like a dock. | 22:14 |
| koltroll | that one I could to it with. | 22:14 |
| avig | irc.freenode.org | 22:14 |
| Clooluss | koltroll: what do you have now, if not a normal panel? | 22:14 |
| th0r | DarkMx: here it is in a nutshell....ssh is a secure telnet....it gives you a command prompt access to your server. You will use it to open a 'tunnel' to your server. Then when you run gedit for instance on your server...it will run on the server, load and save on the server, but will show up on your desktop as though it was on your computer | 22:14 |
| koltroll | Clooluss, no idea. The thingy that came with NBR :) | 22:14 |
| paragon | Example is cobex, installed in Synaptic, but in the Main Menu it does not show, and in the Main Menu edit program there is no option to add it aside from "New Item" but I'm not sure how to use them? | 22:14 |
| atomic007za | anybody got a decent typing program for ubuntu? | 22:15 |
| DarkMx | Hmm... So far I understand | 22:15 |
| DarkMx | But technically, what should I do on my server or on my personal computer | 22:15 |
| DarkMx | To do so ? | 22:15 |
| tokam1 | hi i created a ubuntu live usb stick but it does not boot. the bootloader starts but it just prints boot: and for everything i type in the message "kernel image not found" appears | 22:15 |
| koltroll | Clooluss, ah it worked. was just a matter of finding the exact right place to right click at. thanks alot :) | 22:15 |
| th0r | DarkMx: first step, install openssh-server on the server. Second step, open a terminal on your computer and type 'ssh -X <serverIP>' | 22:15 |

| DarkMx | Uh... th0r... You're gonna kill me but xD | 22:16 |
| th0r | DarkMx: it will ask you to login, use your user id and passwd from the server. Are you running gnome or xfce on the server? | 22:16 |
| DarkMx | I need a solution that can be used on both linux & windows | 22:16 |
| DarkMx | And right now I'm using putty on windows xp | 22:16 |
| th0r | DarkMx: nope...windows is another story....can be done but not nearly so easy | 22:17 |
| th0r | DarkMx: if you need windows stick with vnc | 22:17 |
| radostyle | tokam1: I"m not sure if this is the problem, but some usb sticks don't have the boot flag set, to set it you have to start up GParted and go to your usb stick and set the boot flag, you can at least check that | 22:17 |
| DarkMx | XD Okay so I think i'm gonna use vnc cause | 22:17 |
| th0r | DarkMx: but the logic for xfce still holds....will be much faster than gnome in vnc | 22:17 |
| DarkMx | Hmm... | 22:17 |
| DarkMx | And what about VNC in xfce | 22:17 |
| DarkMx | Is it possible ? | 22:17 |
| loois | anyone here use sonata audio player? | 22:17 |
| tokam1 | Ok radostyle but i will use fdisk ok? | 22:17 |
| tokam1 | But the stick still starts, but no kernel is loaded! | 22:18 |
| th0r | DarkMx: yup...xfce in vnc is the same as gnome in vnc | 22:18 |
| th0r | DarkMx: only should be faster and lightere | 22:18 |
| DarkMx | :3... | 22:18 |
| Sj4lut | !ocr | 22:18 |
| radostyle | tokam1: ya, that might not be you're problem, to create my stick I used unetbootin | 22:18 |

| loois | how do you get sonata to connect to the music library?!!? | 22:18 |
| flavio | does anyone knows something about Error5 - Input/Output devices during kubuntu installation? | 22:18 |
| radostyle | tokam1: did you use unetbootin to set up yours? | 22:18 |
| DarkMx | I'll enable the vnc server only when I need to connect from windows or my phone | 22:19 |
| tokam1 | radostyle: I used the programm under system->systemadministration->... | 22:19 |
| tokam1 | (german version) | 22:19 |
| th0r | DarkMx: yeah....good practice. Also consider moving vnc off the standard ports onto something odd. | 22:19 |

| radostyle | tokam1: I've never used that one, although it seems obvious, you could try unetbootin, you just need the iso and unetbootin | 22:20 |
| DarkMx | th0r > Yup, thanks :) Hmm.. Sorry if I'm asking too much help but... | 22:20 |
| DarkMx | We're back to my first problem | 22:20 |

| Mx60 | Disconnected once again | 22:21 |
| th0r | DarkMx: no problem. I did quite a bit of tinkering with vnc, X forrwarding and NX ... and the security involved with each | 22:21 |
| Mx60 | =D Thanks | 22:21 |
| Mx60 | I said, start x seems to run fine | 22:21 |

| tokam1 | radostyle: where to get it, is it just installed on the livedisk? | 22:22 |
| th0r | Mx60: that's easy...how did you start vnc? | 22:22 |
| Mx60 | from the shell | 22:22 |
| radostyle | tokam1: sudo aptitude install unetbootin | 22:22 |
| th0r | Mx60: what command? | 22:22 |
| Mx60 | I did /usr/lib/vino/vino-server | 22:22 |
| th0r | Mx60: that I won't be able to help you with...I didn't use vino I used vnc4server | 22:23 |
| Mx60 | Okay I'm gonna use vnc4server then :) | 22:23 |
| th0r | Mx60: start vnc4server with 'vnc4server :1' | 22:24 |
| th0r | Mx60: you can actually have several vnc | 22:24 |
| epaphus | Hey guys, i noticed that as a normal ubuntu user I can disable or enable the remote desktop.. is there anyway I can make it so that only root can disable those settings?? | 22:24 |
| mazda01_ | th0r: is vnc4server any faster than x11vnc? | 22:24 |
| Mx60 | The vnc server is now runing | 22:24 |

| jrib | epaphus: check the admin guides at library.gnome.org maybe | 22:25 |
| th0r | Mx60: what command did you use to start the vncserver, and what are you using for vncviewer? | 22:25 |
| Mx60 | th0r > I did vnc4server :1 | 22:25 |
| Mx60 | And I'm using Real VNC Viewer | 22:25 |
| Mx60 | And right now I had a "Connection refused" | 22:25 |
| Mx60 | I'm gonna check the log file | 22:26 |
| tokam1 | ok | 22:26 |
| th0r | Mx60: ok, then you need to use vncviewer <serverIP>:5801 | 22:26 |
| Mx60 | X Error of failed request: BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error) | 22:26 |

| QW3RTY | has anyone here ever set up network file sharing between jaunty and osx tiger? | 22:32 |
| th0r | Mx60: if you don't use the resolution then you will have to scroll around to see all of the desktop. | 22:32 |
| Mx60 | Oh yeah it is the resolution... | 22:32 |
| radostyle | tokam2: do you already have ubuntu installed on your computer or are you just using the liveCD to run it? | 22:32 |

| jrib | nexsja: like? | 22:32 |
| Mx60 | th0r > Well that was already runing but... | 22:32 |
| th0r | Mx60: I usually reduced the resolution on the server to 800x600 so I could have the vnc sessioni in a window | 22:32 |
| Mx60 | Well I can connect, and uh | 22:32 |
| nexsja | keyboard problems in apps | 22:32 |
| Mx60 | I can "see" the vnc server I mean using my client | 22:32 |
| nexsja | thunderbird doesn't recognize any shortcuts | 22:32 |

| jrib | nexsja: that's unlikely to be because you are using 64bit instead of 32bit | 22:33 |

| Mx60 | The vnc4server is running on my server | 22:33 |
| jrib | QW3RTY: oh. I never went in that direction | 22:34 |
| Mx60 | And I can connect to it from my client on my personal computer | 22:34 |
| Mx60 | But all I have on the client windows is a gray screen | 22:34 |
| Mx60 | But it's working because I had to enter the vnc password to connect | 22:34 |
| jrib | nexsja: you should try a live cd of 32bit and 64bit to verify if the experience differs there | 22:34 |
| dravekx | Why does UBUNTU not like Putty from windows 7? | 22:34 |

| th0r | Mx60: the problem is xfce isn't starting when you log in, and it is (or was) a simple fix. But the reading I have done now indicates they have changed the architecture of the X startup so I would have to look further. | 22:40 |

| trollboy | I've got a vendor supplied patch file that looks like it only works on RHEL based distro's | 22:57 |
| dravekx | kk | 22:57 |
| trollboy | as it calls for kernel header files that don't exist in debian/ubuntu | 22:57 |
| mazda01_ | Jeruvy: so you have been sharing some folders via SMB? when you issue findsmb does your mac show up? | 22:57 |
| trollboy | amazingly, puppylinux has the driver built in, however, I don't need/want a gui, etc and would prefer a nice managable package system | 22:58 |
| Jeruvy | mazda01: um, no samba issues just pidgin :) | 22:58 |
| koliz | Ok.. Mayor problem here. Left the computer on while I want away for 30 minutes. when I came back the screen was black and I couldn't do anything. Made a hart reboot and now it seems like I don't have a wlan interface. | 22:59 |

| QW3RTY1 | would it be easier to work with samba or just use nfs? | 22:59 |
| yigal | I'm trying to use madplay. Everything which works except for volume control? | 23:00 |

| yigal | I can't change the volume with madplay? | 23:00 |
| gartral | my dvd-rom is reporting all disks i put in it are of 0kb in size.. any thoughts? | 23:00 |
| mazda01_ | QW3RTY1: i find nfs easier to work with but samba is pretty easy if all your username and passwords for all your machines are the same. | 23:01 |
| trollboy | gartral, are they mounted? | 23:01 |
| Jeruvy | QW3RTY1: samba is easier but nfs is better. But if it's a lot of small files, samba, lot of big files nfs. | 23:01 |
| yigal | I can mute the system and madplay still plays at max volume, any thoughts? | 23:01 |
| dravekx | bkevan, how do I configure it? | 23:01 |
| mazda01_ | Argyanc: i have to disagree, with having to edit the smb.conf file and depending on what security you use, nfs is just changing one file on server and one file on client | 23:01 |
| gartral | trollboy: yea, the disk appears on my desktop, but everything indicates that its "not empty" which is impossible because i JUST pulled them from a fresh spindle | 23:01 |
| dravekx | bkevan, I had synaptic open. lol... its installed. | 23:02 |
| bkevan | dravekx: first try starting it.. and see if it works as you expect.. then if you want to do more configuration you can read the manpage for vsftpd (pretty robust) .. but guessing the default config may work just fine for you | 23:02 |
| bkevan | sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd start | 23:02 |
| darrylm | koliz: did you get an answer to your wlan problem? | 23:02 |
| koliz | darrylm, nah man. I'm about to panic over here :/ | 23:03 |
| dravekx | bkevan, its working.. I just dont know how to setup the username and pwd | 23:03 |
| dravekx | unless its the default. | 23:03 |
| bkevan | koliz: why you panic'ing? | 23:03 |
| bkevan | dravekx: Yes.. by default it uses the system users | 23:03 |
| dravekx | cool | 23:03 |
| koliz | bkevan, cause the netbook froze, and now the wlan interface is gone. that scares the shit out of a ordinary human beeing like myself :) | 23:03 |
| bkevan | dravekx: you can read the man pages and it will talk more about ftpusers file.. | 23:03 |
| darrylm | koliz: ok try opening a terminal, type (without the quotes) sudo /etc/init.d/networking force-reload --- you will be temp disconnected | 23:04 |
| darrylm | koliz: but it will come back up | 23:04 |
| QW3RTY1 | well, if i wanna view the files stored on my mac, how would i fix that? (since i can view the files stored on my ubuntu comp) | 23:04 |
| koliz | darrylm, ill to that right away. | 23:04 |
| darrylm | koliz: my asus does same thing. its a hibernate or suspend issue | 23:04 |
| bkevan | koliz: what does messages and dmesg say regarding the card? but I agree with darrylm.. sounds liek it isn't re-initiated when it comes back from sleep mode or hibernation | 23:04 |
| koliz | hold on bkevan. Ill do what darrylm told me first. | 23:05 |
| toothbrush | hello. i just found out that my system has been compromised, what should i do? | 23:05 |
| darrylm | koliz and bkevan: i have found ubuntu's netbook remix to be a great help (somehow???) in fixing this issue. works great | 23:05 |
| koliz | darrylm, it's the nbr I'm using | 23:06 |
| mazda01_ | QW3RTY1: did you run the command and see what it returns? findsmb and smbtree entering your password for your mac user. nothing in preferences shared has changed oin the mac? | 23:06 |
| koliz | :) | 23:06 |
| bkevan | toothbrush: first how do you figure it's been comprimised? check in your logs to see what was ran.. also.. take it off any network | 23:06 |
| koliz | anyhow, the output from running that command darrylm was (2 line paste coming): | 23:06 |
| koliz | * Reconfiguring network interfaces... Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0. | 23:06 |
| darrylm | koliz: did you follow any howto's on setting up for an asus? | 23:06 |

| darrylm | koliz: do you have ndiswrapper installed??? | 23:12 |
| lstarnes | benalink: "emulates" would probably be more appropriate than "simulates" | 23:13 |
| koliz | darrylm, no I haven't. Tho I remember the name from back in the days when I used slackware. Isn't that so you can use win-drivers ? | 23:13 |
| benalink | i know that but could u give me instructions on how to do it. Alli have is a .img install file | 23:13 |
| lstarnes | toothbrush: did you run it with sudo? | 23:13 |
| mazda01_ | dravekx: is the ETC directory not owned by you? you probably need to save it to some place yo uahve write access to, like your home directory for now. then open a root nautilus BUT be very careful | 23:13 |
| darrylm | koliz: well yes and no but seems everything i have read leads to ndiswrapper for some reason | 23:13 |
| lstarnes | benalink: it depends on the virtual machine being used | 23:13 |
| benalink | hmmm. i dont know any. Please advise | 23:14 |
| lstarnes | benalink: physical machines can't boot from a file system image. They need actual file systems | 23:14 |
| koliz | darrylm, hm | 23:14 |
| dravekx | mazda01_, evidently not. I have access to nothing but my home directory and its driving me nuts. can I change this? | 23:14 |
| mazda01_ | dravekx: after you open a root nautilus (gksudo nautilus) then go to the location that you want to store the new file in, and rename the existing file to something like foo_old and then cut and paste the changed file there. get it? | 23:14 |

| theTroy | ty | 23:15 |
| dravekx | mazda01_, yes. is there a way to change permissions in certain folders for a user? | 23:15 |
| lstarnes | benalink: changing file extensions does nothing useful | 23:15 |
| benalink | ph | 23:15 |
| mazda01_ | dravekx: you don't want to change this. it's the system protecting itself from you. HA HA. you need to use sudo or gksudo for gui apps when changing stuff that isn't owned by you. | 23:15 |
| lstarnes | benalink: a .img file is a filesystem image | 23:15 |

| koliz | darrylm, yes | 23:16 |

| burkmat | Running Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS AMD64 - Some process appears to enjoy randomly (once every two/three weeks) assaulting my CPU and touching it in a bad place, rendering the entire system unusable due to 100% CPU usage. Now I'm planning on sorting this out by setting its priority up a step or two, but it's tricky since I don't know who the bad guy is. Any suggestions on how to locate who this sneaky bastard is, my logs show nothing and | 23:44 |
| burkmat | it's kind of hard to check when I can't get a shell. | 23:44 |
| Guest33085 | login as sudo that will sort your sound out | 23:45 |
| TheNewGuy | anyone know the minimum computers specifications to run ubumtu? I checked the web site, I know it is there, but I can't find it. | 23:45 |
| darrylm | burkmat: open terminal and type top | 23:45 |
| burkmat | !requirements | TheNewGuy | 23:45 |
| ubottu | TheNewGuy: Hardware requirements to install, boot and comfortably use Ubuntu are listed at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements - For a !flavor with lower requirements, see !Xubuntu | 23:45 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy: 128MB RAM, and the Live CD won't even boot up, unless you got a 512MB or so SWAP partition already on there | 23:45 |
| jellyware | morning everybody | 23:45 |
| burkmat | darrylm, Can't log in. No shell. | 23:46 |
| darrylm | burkmat: do you have a desktop? | 23:46 |
| jellyware | kinda new to the command line. I have firefox 2. how do I upgrade to firefox 3.5 using apt-get?? | 23:46 |
| sebsebseb | !ff35 | jellyware | 23:46 |
| ubottu | jellyware: Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 and firefox-3.5-gnome-support | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 23:46 |
| burkmat | darrylm, Laptop. Unsure how it'll help since I can't SSH in, assuming sshd doesn't get any CPU time at all. | 23:47 |
| Lostin | Once more before I go...where is the default keymap lives? | 23:47 |
| koltroll | hm. none of the trouble shootings for different wlan confs helped me. | 23:47 |
| Lostin | does | 23:47 |

| koltroll | and the other thread is a ndiswrapper trouble shooting guide.. And since I'm not using ndiswrapper I'm not having any troubles with it :) And I'm not ready just yet to give it a go since I strongly belive that should be able to work out some other way... since it DID work before. | 23:48 |
| kad_ | how to download new kernel ! | 23:48 |
| vikas | how do i upgrade openoffice to the latest version ? | 23:48 |
| koltroll | darrylm, uhr.. the latest netbook remix. I can do a uname if you like. | 23:48 |
| TheNewGuy | sebsebseb, I got it to boot with 192meg, is there an option to the "live cd"? | 23:48 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy: not sure what your on about | 23:48 |

| kad_ | sebsebseb, got old version need to install new one! | 23:49 |
| sebsebseb | kad_: why? | 23:50 |
| TheNewGuy | sebsebseb, why did you say the "live cd" is that a brittish thing? | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | !ppa > vikas | 23:50 |

| tolmun | hi all :gUU | 23:51 |
| TheNewGuy | what is the Alternate Installation CD? | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | !alternate | TheNewGuy | 23:51 |
| ubottu | TheNewGuy: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 23:51 |
| burkmat | darrylm, Well, I rebooted now so it's alive for now. But I would love some way of figuring out what process is doing it so I can fix it... but as soon as the problem pops up, no shell, and no logs show anything. Guess I'll have to set up some sort of logging myself... Thinking of just piping `ps`into a log and hope for the best. | 23:51 |
| vikas | ok i got i | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | TheNewGuy: why did you ask me if the Live CD is a British thing? | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | !livecd | TheNewGuy | 23:51 |
| ubottu | TheNewGuy: The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option. | 23:51 |
| atomic007za | how would I turn the sound off for all SDL driven apps? | 23:52 |
| kad_ | sebsebseb, this like apt ? | 23:52 |
| Lynx-O | !nvidia | 23:52 |
| darrylm | burkmat: yeah or if you can get to shell or terminal and you can type "top" -- no quotes. that will tell you the top offenders | 23:52 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 23:52 |
| sebsebseb | kad_: yes repos for apt-get | 23:52 |
| TheNewGuy | sebsebseb you sound british | 23:52 |
| atomic007za | @ bootuphow would I turn the sound off for all SDL driven apps? | 23:52 |
| koltroll | darrylm, I'll just go on and make some reboots. just for the hell of it. Then I need some sleep. I'll be back tomorrow if things haven't worked out. Or I'll be back anyhow to inform you about the progress. | 23:52 |
| atomic007za | how would I turn the sound off for all SDL driven apps? @ bootup, sorry | 23:53 |
