[00:49] dragonlotus maybe u need to check DocumentRoot [00:49] helper, documentroot is /var/www in sites-available/default [00:50] X-Seti: Hence me saying to run gnome-panel from alt-f2, not the terminal. But yeah, I'm not sure why it isn't running by default... [00:50] dragonlotus in /var/www is there any index.html ? [00:50] helper, yes it's the default "it works!" index.html [00:51] compiz is complicated for me [00:51] how du i change da theme? [00:51] dragonlotus did u try to restart apache2 ? and try ? [00:51] anyone care to enlighten me with ubuntu server as ive struggled so far and i need to set users and ftp .(folders in their website directory) :-D [00:51] wasutton3: in a terminal, run chmod g-rw /home/will/.gnupg/gpg.conf'. Also, don't run gpg under sudo... [00:52] Any ideas on why my sound was working for the longest time. Then when I did an update that didn't have ANYthing to do with the sound it now says that my sound is not connected? [00:52] helper, restarting apache2 worked. Thanks, but will I have to do this when I reboot? Or might you not know. [00:52] fww. im removing gnome totally, im hoping it i do the gnome install it might come back [00:52] And your help is appreciated, helper. [00:52] losher did that, tried running it again. go this this time: gpg: WARNING: unsafe enclosing directory permissions on configuration file `/home/will/.gnupg/gpg.conf' [00:52] dragonlotus it work after reboot ? [00:52] toyimp, did your updates require reboot and have you done that? [00:53] helper works after "sudo apache2ctl restart" [00:53] What program is used to create mouse pointer themes? [00:53] yes I did the reboot. Which is what caused my sound to quit working === janjust is now known as Django1 [00:53] Does anyone know how I can make my netbook connect via cable? It refuses to connect. [00:53] wasutton3: that's progress. Next please run ls -ld /home/will/.gnupg (those are lower case Ls) [00:53] has anybody ever had "power calibration error" while trying to burn DVD??? [00:53] dragonlotus actually after any modify u need to restart or seems when you install it , the daemon didn't restart anyway reboot and check i'm sure it will work [00:53] toyimp, have you looked at volume mixer settings? [00:53] toyimp: it was a kernel update? [00:53] HELP REQUIRED !!! CRAP rates of pay"!!!! as in None O:-) [00:54] cyberbrain: Yes I have just recently.

[00:54] sorry about the smilie i thought i had a space in there [00:54] lol I'm not that dumb anto9us. In the device setting for the sound it says 'not connected' where it was working not even 40 seconds ago before the restart. [00:54] hey guys, anyone else having trouble viewing videos on facebook [00:54] wow im getting trampled in the stampede \o/ [00:55] wasutton3: chmod g-rwx /home/will/.gnupg [00:55] losher ... it works under windows good [00:55] cyberbrain: My parents computer did it and I thought the drive was going out. I swapped cables and took drives out and the hardware was fine. I think it boiled down to a bad update bug. [00:55] take me to your leader [00:55] hey what do i type to force install a .deb package [00:55] cyberbrain: that implies a software issue. What are you using to burn? [00:55] losher: hey it works now, thanks. i tried looking over the internet but there wasnt any mention of those commands anywhere [00:56] cyberbrain: I got that error with Nero Linux 3 BTW its not just Brasero. [00:56] losher, i've tried everything gnomebaker,k3b,nero linux, brasero! === noel is now known as Guest74294 [00:56] toyimp: reboot, and at the 3 second prompt press ESC, choose an earlier kernel from the list and see if that restores sound [00:57] wasutton3: I'm not sure why the permissions were wrong in the first place. Usually the install process takes care of it. At least the error messages are meaningful. Glad it's solved... [00:57] psssssssstttttt !!!! [00:57] th0r, k brb [00:57] linuxguy2009, so you think i should replace cable? === noel is now known as Guest84181 [00:57] cyberbrain: No your hardware is probably fine. Its a software issue probably a core ubuntu bug. [00:58] cyberbrain: Software I mean. Your hardware is probably fine.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [00:58] cyberbrain: I can't think why changing the cable would fix a problem that's only on Ubuntu but not windows....

As soon as you do a system update you will most likely reintroduce the bug. [00:59] Guest84181: with webcams ive had.. either i plug them in and they work with no hassles., or they are totally unsupported at all and cant work. [00:59] thanks i'll watch it [00:59] deexannihilate: whats it use for network manager? [00:59] linuxguy2009: cyberbrain: what os version are y' [00:59] losher, don't know...it might be that ubuntu cannot recognie it on this bus! [00:59] linuxguy2009: cyberbrain: what os version are y'all using... [00:59] howdo, if someone knows and cares to answer they will, some patience may be necessary. [00:59] 9.04 [01:00] k [01:00] losher, 8.10 [01:00] how to force install a .deb????? [01:00] VPN? [01:00] howdo: you normally install a 'ftp' server and configure it to use ftp. thers several ftp servers in the repositories [01:00] !ftp [01:00] FTP clients: Nautilus (Places -> Connect to server), gFTP, FileZilla (for !GNOME); Konqueror, Kasablanca, KFTPGrabber (for !KDE); FireFTP (for Firefox); ftp, lftp (for !cli) - See also !FTPd [01:00] inx-mdg: VPN? [01:00] helloo [01:00] kfan, dpkg --force [01:00] deexannihilate: like WICD or gnome network manager.... [01:00] linuxguy2009: cyberbrain: so has it ever worked under Ubuntu or is it a day one problem? [01:00] cyberbrain: If your drive works in Windows then that just proves its just a software bug/issue. [01:00] is it possible to run itunes via wine? [01:00] how can i tell which one is installed as a friend set this up [01:01] inx-mdg: I don't have the slightest clue. [01:01] have a problem I installed Ubuntu Studio, after the installation I have a green screnn somebody tell me to boot on recovery mode and to autorepair of X i did it but no way it doesn't work others idea? [01:01] deexannihilate: actually WICD is wifi [01:01] howdo: none are installed by default. use the synaptic package manager to see whts installed.. or ask him. [01:01] losher: Oh yeah worked till a recent update on my parents computer. [01:01] asger_, see http://appdb.winehq.org/ [01:01] i've seen the page about my webcam [01:01] cant he s no longer here if you get what i mean [01:01] inx-mdg: Sorry, I'm new to this, so I don't know where to find the information unless someone directs me. [01:01] my ssh connection keep logging me out [01:01] but i've installed a driver [01:02] and its a cmd line server no gui [01:02] losher: I dont do system updates on my system very often at all so thats probably why mine hasnt done it yet/ [01:02] for my tv, i can change my picture size between native and natural, what is the difference? [01:02] losher, linuxguy2009 ... it worked before...i think this is the first time i try to burn DVD after upgrade to 8.10...not sure though! [01:02] but i do not know how to create a link [01:02] for displaying ubunut [01:02] to the device [01:02] howdo: time to learn some linux cli stuff then.. or install the ubuntu-desktop package so yoy have a gui [01:02] my ssh connection keep logging me out, I think it is not able to save key [01:02] linuxguy2009: cyberbrain: well, I might believe a 9.04 update messed something up, but 8.10 is pretty mature, so I'm skeptical that it would go unnoticed... [01:03] ok but problem is a client wants access to ftp tomorrow *gulp [01:03] Can I easily use wget to download a series of files? e.g. www.server.ca/file1 to www.server.ca/file200 ? [01:03] yo does anyone of Mac os in a virtual? [01:03] howdo: you can add a 'user' with the 'sudo adduser' command.. ive no idea about ftp specic stuff any more.. I use ssh.. ftp is dead to me. :) [01:03] alazyworkaholic: sure with some bash scripting and regex it should be no issue [01:03] or is there any other program? [01:03] just wondering what best VM would be for macos [01:03] inx-mdg: I can't find anything that allows me to actually look at the connection. Under network manager, it has a menu of different types of connections, but there is nothing listed under wired. When I first got the computer about a month ago, it automatically connected when plugged in (the same as my desktop), but now it doesn't respond at all. [01:04] deexannihilate: you know how to get to a command line? [01:04] Yes [01:04] linuxguy2009: cyberbrain: ok, running out of ideas. Time to google "Ubuntu power calibration error" and see if it's a known issue... [01:04] punzada: that's on my to-learn list. Any simpler noob way? [01:04] deexannihilate: at command type "ifconfig" (without quotes) and tell me what you see [01:05] anto9us, thx. i found a guide to install itunes in wine with ubuntu 8,02. Do u think it will work on the newest ubuntu as well? [01:05] anyone know a Lightscribe program? [01:05] does wpa2 secure enough in ubuntu [01:05] kfan: i think the only one around is a preliminary one from the company actually behind lightscribe [01:05] might not be easily installable in ubuntu [01:05] asger_, I'd guess so, I don't use it though [01:05] kfan: Yeah i do. Its called lightscribe simple labeler. [01:05] anyone care to pm me and talk me threw cmds to do the ftp stuff :) [01:06] losher, i google it! ... one guy had the same problem with same CD/DVD ROM ... his solution was "updated Px2 engine 2 higher config"...whatever that means :S [01:06] kfan: If your good with gimp you can edit the PNG files that it comes with and print any graphics you want in linux BTW. [01:06] inx-mdg: Link encap: Local Loopback [01:06] i'm on kubuntu hardy an a radeon 9600; the display config applet lets me select >60hz for resolutions such as 1280x1024 and 1600x1200, but not for my favorite 1400x1050... [01:06] howdo: wish I could - I'm kinda noob [01:06] kfan: there are lightscribe tools for linux. check the lightscribe homepage.. Im not sure they are in any repos. [01:07] deexannihilate: no eth0? That would be your wired network connection [01:07] kfan: i recall a 'basic' and a 'advanced' versions of the tools. [01:07] The lightscribe simple labeler only does simple text only labels but with gimp you can edit those PNG with any graphics you want and burn any graphic on the whole disk. [01:08] lightscribe is very imposible with Linux i have it too [01:08] can someone tell me if there is a way to *DOWNGRADE* to an earlier version of ubuntu? say 8.04 or 8.10? [01:08] frankenstein91: Lightscribe is very easy in Ubuntu. [01:08] Ive used light scribe with Linux with no real propblems... other then th expensive cost of the media and the slowness [01:08] inx-mdg: I'm running Athero and it wasn't working. I went through a tutorial to update the driver which failed. I realized I could just download it from Synaptic package Manager, but i can't get the computer to connect through cable. [01:08] i'm tryin to pick a good font for my terminal; how do I get linux to show me a list of fonts? is there a good tool to do this? [01:08] lowlycoder: a terminal can only use specific kinds of fonts.. many people like the 'terminus' font for their terminals [01:08] !find terminux [01:08] !find terminus [01:08] th0r, yeah that made it work again [01:08] i have problem with lightscribe [01:08] Package/file terminux does not exist in jaunty [01:08] deexannihilate: go back to the network manager and look under help and tell me what program it says it is [01:08] Found: console-terminus, xfonts-terminus, xfonts-terminus-dos, xfonts-terminus-oblique [01:09] linuxguy2009: cyberbrain: since you both say an upgrade broke it, take a look near the end of /var/log/dpkg.log and see if there's anything from the latest update that looks like it might be the culprit.... [01:09] th0r, any ideas how to fix it in the updated kernal? Or should I just wait a while and see if another update fixes it? [01:09] inx-mdg: It is the same as Network Connections? [01:09] toyimp: I had problems with that kernel with my wifi card...I think the new kernel is buggy [01:09] deexannihilate: yes [01:09] toyimp: I have frozen my install...won't update unless I have a very good reason [01:09] inx-mdg: It doesn't have a help screen. [01:10] is anyone here with some experince in "Rent a coder" site? [01:10] th0r, kk thanks for the help :) [01:10] hey guys I have a problem with my sound I had just updated from 8.04 to 9.10 and all of a sudden my sound no longer works [01:10] inx-mdg: It lists wired, wireless, mobile broadband, vpn, and dsl. Nothing more. [01:10] but i'm hier becous i have a problem with XDMCP it is only work when i'm on the PC1 alrady login [01:10] hui [01:10] deexannihilate: you want wired [01:10] toyimp: you can change the boot up kernel in /boot/grub/menu.lst. Count the number for the kernel you want, starting at 0, and change the 'default' setting in that file [01:10] inx-mdg: Networkmanager applet 0.7.0.100 [01:10] i have error of input/output error when i try to write some file into my portable hard disk.please help [01:10] what do i actualy type in terminal to get this to force install because im a 64 bit 4l_1.0-1_i386.deb [01:10] deexannihilate: click the tab that says "wired" [01:11] inx-mdg: It is blank [01:11] losher: hmm cant look right now but kudos for the heads up on the dpkg.log file.Didnt know there was a log for that. thanks. [01:11] deexannihilate: along the right side of that dialog box is there an option to "add" a connection? [01:11] inx-mdg: Yes [01:11] is anyone here with some experince in "Rent a coder" site? [01:11] but i'm hier becous i have a problem with XDMCP it is only work when i'm on the PC1 alrady login sry for the bad english [01:12] deexannihilate: lets try making a new connection [01:12] kfan: if you are 64bit.. you dont 'force' a 32bit program to install.. it wont work. [01:12] what do i actualy type in terminal to get this to force install because im a 64 bit 4l_1.0-1_i386.deb [01:12] !offtopic | rasturm [01:12] rasturm: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [01:12] linuxguy2009: understood. Best of luck.... [01:12] kfan: except perhaps in rare cases.. [01:12] inx-mdg: OK. I don't have access to the account information if that'll make a difference? [01:12] deexannihilate: tell me what you see in the dialog box [01:13] th0r, k trying to figure out the file. [01:13] can somebody help me out with an audio problem [01:13] inx-mdg:Wired, 802.1x Security, IPv4 Settings [01:13] @lart AE [01:13] I've got problems running dual monitors, about every 5th I reboot it doesn't recognize the higher resolutions of my second monitor. [01:13] inx-mdg: Under wired it has MAC Address and MTU [01:13] hey Lart could you help me out with an audio problem [01:13] deexannihilate: we want a wired connection - we're just setting up the eth0 wired network connection at this point [01:14] toyimp: in the file near the top is a line that just says default 0. In the bootup menu, if the kernel you choose was the third line, change the default to read 'default 2' remember it starts at zero [01:14] the "configure the display settings" icon opens to show both monitors, but the resolutions are screwy [01:14] kfan: you need to download the source and compile it for 64 bit, instead of trying to force a 32 bit install... [01:14] inx-mdg: If I click on add Wired Connection, it opens a window, and the first tab option is Wired which lists MAC Address and MTU [01:14] deexannihilate: we need to tell it to use eth0 to access the wired connection - can't think where that goes since I can't seen your screen. [01:14] th0r, ahhh, thank you! Was thinking that but didn't want to screw it all up if I did that haha. [01:15] deexannihilate: is there a button that says "okay" or "Continue" or something? [01:15] toyimp: if you do make a mistake, yo can always reboot and press ESC again [01:15] th0r, very true. [01:16] inx-mdg: It has an apply button, but it can't be selected unless the information is entered. [01:16] toyimp: but you are smart to be careful around that file...it can cause some headaches. You should make a backup copy of it now so you have it if you need it [01:16] i have error of input/output error when i try to write some file into my portable hard disk.please help [01:16] deexannihilate: hmmm.... need to go back a window [01:16] th0r, already did :D [01:16] mib: may be time to get a new hard disk.. or fsck that one and test it thourhly. What filesystem is on it? [01:16] deexannihilate: you want "auto DHCP" [01:16] toyimp: you're getting the hang of this linux stuff [01:17] th0r, yeah. I've used it on and off for the past 6 years or so. And I just recently, like a week ago, fully ported to Ubuntu. [01:17] th0r, I like it. But some headaches still arise for me. [01:18] toyimp: I have used it a lot longer, but even I was dual boot until about six months ago...vista finally did me in [01:18] do you can't help me? [01:18] Dr_Willis: even i try to remove safely, it said An Application prevent to be removed..but there is none holding the disk [01:18] !ask | frankenstein91 [01:18] frankenstein91: 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. :-) [01:18] Escalade-tor-dor [01:18] could you help me out [01:18] mib: what filesystem is on the disk? You may want to reboot to force it to get unmounted.. then fsck it. [01:18] but i'm hier becous i have a problem with XDMCP it is only work when i'm on the PC1 alrady login how can i slove this? [01:18] AE, what do you need? [01:18] inx-mdg: Ok. So, When I first open the Network Connections, it has 5 tabs with different connection types. The first one is wired. I clicked "Add" to make a new connectio. I just tried again and it will allow me to press apply without entering an MAC Address. The last tab is IPv4 and it is set to Automatic DHCP. [01:18] th0r, same here. Plus I really enjoy the flexibility of Linux. Its just learning how to be flexible myself is what takes time. [01:19] I just upgraded from 8.04 to 9.10 and my sound died [01:19] deexannihilate: that sounds right... [01:19] I have been looking around on the forums but nothing I have found has helped any :/ [01:19] Is there a way to use apt-get to find out all suggested packages for the packages I have installed? [01:20] deexannihilate: if it accepts that, you will have to log out and then back in to activate it. [01:20] toyimp: yeah, I love the flexibility...have always had dual boot and used linux almost exclusively for years...but always had that other option til about six months ago. Did a lot of network work in my career and linux had tools windows couldn't come close to [01:20] inx-mdg:Ok. I will try it. [01:20] frankenstein91: you may want to check teh various (and proberly a bit old) xdmcp howto guides.. proberly you need to set up some xhost authority security stuff.. been ages since i last messed with xdmcp. I just use ssh forwarding now a days [01:20] richardcavell: You mean package recomends? [01:20] linuxguy2009: yeah [01:20] ae: if you have a backup, I advise you to go back to 8.04, frankly.... [01:20] deexannihilate: by the way, what kind of computer is this? [01:20] richardcavell: look at aptoncd...it might do what you want [01:21] AE, what sound card do you have [01:21] losher honestly!? [01:21] deexannihilate: Just curious... [01:21] AE, toyimp is having the same issue with the latest kernel, install the previous kernel, reboot and select it and see if it restores sound [01:21] richardcavell: you want command line only? [01:21] inx-mdg: Aspire D250 [01:21] linuxguy2009: I can use synaptic package manager to go through them manually but it's a bit tedious [01:21] toyimp: looks like I should have filed a bigger bug report on that kernel [01:21] richardcavell: Ok I see give me a min to look through man page [01:21] Dr_Willis: sry my english is bad but i search for howtos and it is not work [01:21] sound works fine when I boot into a Live version of 8.04 [01:21] th0r: I don't think so [01:21] inx-mdg: I logged out and back on and it still says no Network Connection. [01:21] th0r, I strongly agree with you there. I just started learning Python. And with Python being native to linux... well actually with any programming language being native. I like how everything works with linux way more in comparison to windows. [01:22] To change root password: sudo passwd root [01:22] th0r: What I'm thinking is that I'll install some of the optional suggested packages [01:22] coleys: does that mean that you can then login as root? [01:22] ae: well, people keep losing sound in 9.04, and apparently it's *still* not fixed... [01:22] !noroot | coleys [01:22] coleys: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. [01:22] deexannihilate: can you go back to the command line and type "ifconfig" again and see if it shows "eth0" [01:22] richardcavell: Yes. [01:22] lol [01:22] frankenstein91: Ive had it set up ages ago. but not tried it lately. I recall having to edit the gdm.conf file and 1 or 2 other files.. and that was it.. [01:22] rww: I don't care =p [01:22] To change root password: sudo passwd root [01:22] frankenstein91: why do you even need xdmcp? why just not 'ssh -X' to the remote box and runs stuff that way [01:23] new user hi xubuntu how do i get my network to show ? [01:23] AE, what sound card do you have? [01:23] coleys: please don't recommend that [01:23] Fixed my dual monitor problem. Can't use metacity, have to use compiz in order for my Samsung to recognized. [01:23] inx-mdg: No, it looks exactly the same. [01:23] richardcavell: "--install-recommends" add that as an option. Thats it. [01:23] coleys: having a root shell is very handy sometimes when you %*!% your system [01:23] steveb_: you mean your 'windows shares' ? [01:23] linuxguy2009: okay [01:23] Dr_Willis: for school [01:23] Im not recommending it, Im just stating it. [01:23] de [01:23] richardcavell: that's what rescue mode is for [01:23] deexannihilate: hmmm..... [01:23] !xdmcp [01:23] rww: I know. I've had to use it. [01:23] xdmcp is the X Display Manger Control Protocol -- look at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO/ to find out how to configure it [01:23] inx-mdg: Actually, I just had an incredibly blonde moment. Give me a second. [01:23] yes have 2 on windows [01:23] Escalade: http://pastebin.com/m49336d19 [01:24] richardcavell: I totally agree root, all the way. [01:24] richardcavell: perhaps apt-cache show "name of app" is what you need - not sure that is right command... [01:24] coleys, richardcavell: Unless you intend to be here 24/7 to support everyone who has a root password set, please don't recommend/endorse/whatever setting one here. [01:24] Flannel: I do intent, thanks for the offer. [01:24] my ssh connection keep logging me out, I think it is not able to save key [01:24] AE, you spelled my name wrong [01:24] sry [01:25] Dr_Willis: ther are only bad computers so i will use my and ssh is blocked ther [01:25] inx-mdg: I'll still have to go through all my packages manually [01:25] AE, did you get all updates? [01:25] aye [01:25] can someone do echo $PATH , and paste for me the paths ? thx =) [01:25] I need help with my ipod. I'd like to copy my music to my ipod. I've tryed both banshee and rhythmbox, but i can't get it to work. [01:25] Flannel: I have my way of supporting and it works :) [01:25] frankenstein91: using xdmcp over the 'internet' is defindatly not a good or 'secure' way of doing it. if they got ssh blocked - they proberly got xdmcp blocked as well. I only use xdmcp on the local lans. [01:25] inx-mdg: No, it looks exactly the same. [01:26] helper: /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games [01:26] richardcavell: I guess I'm not sure what you want to do..... [01:26] asger: I use gtkpod [01:26] ShadowAp3x thx :) [01:26] I'm having trouble using my wpn111 usb wifi dongle with ubuntu 9.04 [01:26] frankenstein91: perhaps check out vnc, or similer remote desktop tools [01:26] from Compiz Fusion icon / Settings Manger, I chose General Options / Display Settings, then overwrote the Outputs... Restarting X picked up the new monitor, so that instead of "unknown", i see Samsung, with appropriate resolution choices. [01:26] th0r, yeah, it seems like my computer is having trouble with that program. [01:27] how do i give users bash instead of sh? I know its a dumb question : ( [01:27] linuxguy2009: wait, I don't want install-recommends. I want install-suggests, but there is no such option [01:27] deexannihilate: any luck? [01:27] th0r, so i'd rather use another 1 [01:27] inx-mdg: No. It looks exactly the same as it did the first time. [01:27] pzero: They have bash by default [01:27] Wireless network drivers says its unable to see if the hardware is detected [01:27] my problem is it works but only when i'm login local and then remote [01:27] inx-mdg: there is no mention of eth0 [01:27] flannel, let's say they dont for some reason. how would i fix that? [01:27] deexannihilate: is your wireless card still plugged in? [01:27] asger: I did have some problems initially getting it to work. When i first plugged in the ipod I saw jeez...maybe a dozen copies of the same things....I just went through it deleting them all and finally got down to one...and it has worked fine since [01:28] hi. should i use transmission or something else for peer to peer? [01:28] inx-mdg: plugged in? Like physically? [01:28] richardcavell: ok I see Ill take another look [01:28] pzero: Using a GUI, you'd go to users and groups, and change their shell. In a terminal, use usermod to change their shell (--shell) [01:28] pzero: there is a gui front-end in Ubuntu [01:28] deexannihilate: I guess a better question is - is there a card plugged in or switched on? [01:28] pzer: exactly what Flannel saud [01:28] thanks [01:28] inx-mdg: Sorry. :( It is built in. [01:29] deexannihilate: there should be switch to turn it off.... [01:29] my problem is it works but only when i'm login local and then remote over LAN but i need it so that i must only login remote [01:29] Anyone know how to get netgear wpn111 working with ubuntu? [01:29] inx-mdg: If there is, I never saw it. There is a switch (like the one that releases the screen of a laptop) but it has never effected the wireless [01:30] inx-mdg: outside of that, I've never seen it. [01:30] deexannihilate: what kind of computer is this? [01:30] inx-mdg: Acer Aspire One D250 [01:31] richardcavell: Looks like there is no suggested option for apt-get. Sorry. [01:31] inx-mdg: and for the record.. the switch I am talking about does nothing with the screen. I'm not that dumb lol [01:31] linuxguy2009: I'll have to do it manually :( [01:32] something wrong with ssh , i try to login remotely via ssh 5 times till it accept password! when i go to server and do sudo passwd user , and try to re-log via ssh it work! why? thx [01:32] . [01:33] deexannihilate: I don't know if when you plug in the wired cable the wifi automatically goes off.... [01:33] I just ran a wget command and it is downloading every page that is linked to the html file I originally wanted. I exited out of the terminal but it is still running in the background. Any ideas on how to stop it? [01:33] oki bb noone can help me [01:33] att0: pidof wget [01:33] inx-mdg: I unplugged it. Should I log off again to see if it effected it? [01:33] att0: and kill it [01:33] richardcavell: Why in the world would you want to do that anyways? [01:33] deexannihilate: you can try [01:34] inx-mdg: Also, there is no driver for the wireless, if that'll make a difference. [01:34] linuxguy2009: I just found that a package would have worked better had I installed the suggested other packages [01:34] inx-mdg: And I looked int he manual and it does enable and disable the wireless, but I've messed with it before and it didn't effect the wireless. [01:34] inx-mdg: ran pidof and it showed two ID's. Do I "kill _ID_"? [01:34] deexannihilate: you could turn the computer off, plug the wired cable in and then reboot and see what happens [01:35] inx-mdg: I've done that multiple times, but I'll try it again. [01:35] brb [01:35] ichardcavell: Then simply use synaptic to install the suggested for that package. Thats easy. [01:35] :-\ quick question [01:35] why does ubuntu suck so much? .... never found a distro as bad as ubuntu [01:35] att0: I believe its "kill 01111" or whatever the number is... [01:36] "sudo pkill wget" [01:36] linuxguy2009: well I'm doing it but I'm doing it manually [01:36] Gingerbread-Man: God bless and goodbye [01:36] inx-mdg: got it :) .

[01:38] i fired up gparted to reclaim some space from my ntfs partitions [01:38] sh4d0wz: you are trying to sudo as your first user you made?

[01:42] I think i fucked it up when i was fucking around in user and groups yesterday [01:42] deexannihilate1: its odd that it won't let you setup wired networking....

I'll see if this works [01:44] deexannihilate1: was the wired cable plugged in when you were trying to setup a wired connection before? [01:44] sh4d0wz what's main problem ? [01:44] Mickael: it would reinstall teh grub loader normally automatically === Mexican is now known as Escalade_Mexican [01:44] i cant sudo [01:44] or get in user and groups [01:44] helper: can you run 'ssh -v' and paste the output to http://paste.ubuntu.com? [01:44] says im not allowed [01:44] sh4d0wz is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. [01:44] Mickael: well, parts of the bootloader *are* inside the ubuntu partition to begin with (as long as you didn't install it in custom ways), so yeah [01:44] sh4d0wz: Alright, are you still in the admin group? What's the output of "groups"? [01:44] Huh? [01:45] inx-mdg: One time it was and then I tried again when you said it sometimes automatically disconnected. [01:45] sh4d0wz: Go to a terminal, type "groups" paste the output here. [01:45] sh4d0wz: type "groups" in a shell and give him the output [01:45] i did install it custom, its dualbooting with win7 === Escalade_Mexican is now known as Pull [01:45] sh4d0wz ok you don't have prividge user! go to /etc/sudoers and modify that [01:45] sh4d0wz: It'll be one line, so you can paste it no rpoblem. [01:45] Mickael: so it's not GRUB? === Pull is now known as Pull_My_Bleep [01:45] its grub [01:45] sh4d0wz@sh4d0wz:~$ groups [01:45] sh4d0wz fax cdrom dip plugdev fuse [01:45] sh4d0wz@sh4d0wz:~$ [01:45] but it would still be there if i removed the ubuntu partition [01:45] sh4d0wz: you must be a part of the 'admin' group, to sudo [01:45] sh4d0wz add yourself as admin [01:45] Is anyone able to help me with dual monitors? I am having trouble enabling compiz, I have an MX4000 (128mb) running ubuntu 9.04 [01:45] HOW! [01:46] sh4d0wz@sh4d0wz:~$ /etc/sudoers [01:46] bash: /etc/sudoers: Permission denied [01:46] if I combine 2 files using the cat command, how would someone else be able to pull them apart into the original 2 files again? [01:46] sh4d0wz: You should get whoever administers your system to do so. [01:46] Mickael: ok, but the point is, GRUB is installed partly in the boot sector, and partly on a partition - generally your main Ubuntu partition. at least the latter will need to be installed again [01:46] sh4d0wz: can you access recovery mode when rebooting? [01:46] sh4d0wz use as root: usermod -g Primary group -G Secondary group [01:46] sh4d0wz: Right, so that's why you can't sudo anymore. You need to be in admin. You'll have to reboot, go to the recovery console, and then type "adduser sh4d0wz admin" [01:46] deexannihilate1: leave the network cable plugged in and completely shut down the computer, leave it off for about 30 seconds and then reboot and then tell me what you - network icon-wise [01:46] sh4d0wz: if you can, use gpasswd -a sh4d0wz admin [01:46] Is there a way to get mods to see trolls like we just had so folks dont get it taken out on them instead? I really dont like getting yelled at for other folks ignorant beahvior. [01:46] linuxguy2009: ask in #ubuntu-ops [01:46] gpasswd: Permission denied. [01:46] thanks [01:46] linuxguy2009: Well you can use the ops command, but the last time I reported a troll in here I got kickbanned right along with him, so at your own risk [01:46] sh4d0wz: Use adduser. And you have to reboot to recovery console. [01:47] Ok [01:47] Is anyone able to help me with dual monitors? I am having trouble enabling compiz, I have an MX4000 (128mb) running ubuntu 9.04 thanks.

[01:49] its the only one around the office that I can nab Lol. [01:50] scunizi, java maybe? [01:50] LasBuntu: php5-xdebug is in regular repositories, that might fit the description [01:50] DaZ: java-common? [01:50] tony: do you have the restricted driver installed? (I'll be honest, been since 8.04 since i've used ubuntu itself) [01:51] why do i keep seeing random red text?? [01:51] helper: it looks normal. Are you saying you get 5 failures and then a success, using the *same* password? [01:51] ArcherSeven: I installed the hardware drivers, version 96 [01:51] scizzo-, don't know, sun calls it java runtime environment ; [01:51] what: what random red text? [01:51] what, red text from other users means that people have typed your name; it's a form of highlighting. [01:51] what: Probably because your nickname is a common english word and people are using it when they talk [01:51] losher yes [01:51] I suggest you change your username to something more obscure so you don't get this. ;) [01:51] like what are you talking about [01:51] nickname? [01:51] what, don't use nicknames like those [01:51] what: the name that you are using on this chat [01:52] what- Yes, nickname. The thing we are referring to you as. [01:52] To change your nick, do: /nick DesiredNickname [01:52] lstarnes, what name? [01:52] tony ahh. I don't know cards by heart, but that's one of the older drivers, so i'm guessing it's a pretty weak card? Seen a lot of that in the help channel i frequent, i really suggest living w/o compiz untill you get a card with more power, as I believe you'll find compiz slows it down past what is worth the pretty-factor. [01:52] what: the name that you're using [01:52] what: LOL! [01:52] ArcherSeven: is it possible that my dual monitors could be causing compiz to not start? They are different sizes, 1x17" and 1x19(widescreen) [01:52] woah [01:52] what: your nickname is 'what' just as mine is 'lstarnes' [01:52] i am confused! [01:52] that's not cool [01:52] why did ubuntu autoconfigure my x-chat for me [01:52] :( [01:53] inx-mdg: restarting now [01:53] what is confused [01:53] Thats what I was thinking ArcherSeven, i believe i've managed to get it working on this old card before [01:53] tony: it's more requirement on the card, which... could be part of it, for sure, since that cards not overly powerful to begin with. more important is the resolutions [01:53] Pull_My_Bleep: Please stop. We don't need continuing comments from the peanut gallery. [01:53] DaZ: that's what I was looking for .. Sun-java.. weird .. when searching synaptic for java sun never appeared.. [01:53] alt-1 dosn't give me the server tab, it gives me the first channel. ARGH >< [01:53] deexannihilate1: did you want a wired connection with the cable or a wireless one??? you have me confused... [01:53] Thanks for your help ArcherSeven I'll see if I can score a more powerful card :) [01:53] every other line is red? [01:53] anyone know how to use cat command?

[01:53] how do i do this in ubuntu [01:53] what: red lines are those containing the word "what". [01:53] mattperry: type in "man cat" in your terminal and press enter, ignoring quotes.

[01:54] what: You're really not doing a clever job of the whole troll thing, it's supposed to be less obvious [01:54] Might I add, how I hate ati with a passion :) [01:54] mattperry, explain my how to don't know x; [01:54] helper: that's very strange. Can you paste 'ssh -v' for the failing case and for the successful case, so we can compare them? [01:54] what: because you are using "what" as a nickname. [01:54] I've used cat to combine 2 files...but trying to find a way to break them back into the original two files? [01:54] mattperry: you can't do that with "cat". cat is to "conCATenate", not to split [01:55] I guess he'll come back when he has a better gag [01:55] mattperry: you can use "split" to split [01:55] losher i can't i mean the fail come remotely only when i log remotely give 5 fail 1 success checked this @ log something weird [01:55] tony, lol, we all do. two cards, one nvidia, one ati. I've opted for running both my monitors on the nvidia..... [01:55] Hmm.. Ages ago with ubuntu and gdm/gnome wasent there a way to start a 2nd X session? I can see in the switch user app a way to login as a different user on a 2nd session.. but i want to get to the GDM login screen so i can 'xdmcp' to a remote box. Not login to thos box a 2nd time [01:55] Can you suggest me a good and not expensive webcam compatible with Ubuntu? I would prefer a model with led. [01:55] Dr_Willis: Upper right hand corner, guest session [01:56] I've tried 2 different ati ccards, might I add both old (9200, 9600), both rubbish and a huge waste of time [01:56] losher when 1st time it fail, go to server type sudo passwd user and then try remotely , it work [01:56] inx-mdg: I'm still showing now network detected [01:56] deexannihilate: how's it going? [01:56] helper: sorry, I can't understand you well enough to debug this... [01:56] inx-mdg: I'm still showing no network detected [01:56] deexannihilate: did you want a wired connection with a cable or a wireless? [01:57] I'll take either to be honest! [01:57] Hello all, my xstartup does not appear to be running when conecting via VNC...anyone lend a hand? [01:57] Bravewolf: From past questions that i have asked I was given the suggestion that most webcams are compatible with ubuntu. Not sure as I have yet to buy one myself. But that is what i have heard. [01:57] deexannihilate: are you reloading the wireless and then trying to get wired to work.... I'm confused.... [01:57] blind|melon|chit: thats not exactly how ive done it in the past.. :) but it also seems broken here... it just gives a black screen.. no guest screen/desktop. Odd. i recall it working on the otehr machines. [01:57] Bravewolf: Maybe check out youtube for suggestions or google. [01:57] BRB [01:58] losher when i log remotely via ssh 4 or 5 fail and last one success, but if it fail from the 1st time , if i go to server and use sudo passwd username , the 2nd log in success [01:58] is there something to easily bridge two ethernet connections in ubuntu? [01:58] spO: Have you tried googling that yet? [01:58] does ubuntu over windows partition when part of a dual-boot? [01:58] inx-mdg: Ok.Earlier I was trying to fix the wireless because it has bad connection. I looked through tutorials on how to fix it and ended up deleting it with no luck. Now, I can't get the cable to work (which is what I'm here trying to do). [01:58] does ubuntu overwrites windows partition when part of a dual-boot? [01:58] how do I use that split command to get the original files back rather than a random set of text files etc [01:58] lightning.net [01:59] how do i resize my ntfs partitions [01:59] inx-mdg: Once I get the cable to work, I am sure I can get the WIFI working again. [01:59] mattperry: well, you need to know *where* to split by yourself - that information isn't contained in the file. [01:59] deexannihilate: okay.. wired. [01:59] Dr_Willis: That is odd, it seems to be working fine on my end but that doesn't mean much :> [01:59] inx-mdg: yes. [01:59] linuxguy2009: ok, thanks [01:59] JoeKerr: only if you want it too [01:59] Bravewolf: You could also google 'ubuntu webcam' and check newegg and ebay for reviews. Often people will say 'this works really well in Ubuntu' or somesuch... [01:59] inx-mdg: I just wanted wanted to make sure you understand the situation and why I was trying to load the wireless driver [01:59] Dr_Willis: If I click on guest I get a default desktop and my original desktop is locked [02:00] losher: Yeah great tip. do that [02:00] i have windowx xp pro on disk0 and ubuntu 9.04 on disk1 [02:00] basically I'm wanting to embed text inside a graphic...cat does that fine, but how do I get my text and graphic to separate correctly with split? [02:00] forgot about that. [02:00] losher: until now I was pretty not lucky. every webcam I found on ebay seems to have problems with gnu/linux [02:00] now my windows partition crashed and i keep seeing grub [02:00] lets try this: With the cable plugged in, go straight to shut-down - don't do anything else. Once you shutdown, leave computer off for about 30 seconds and then reboot it (don't choose restart - you want it to shut off). Then after it starts up, don't touch anything - let me know when you have rebooted. [02:01] well that 2nd session thing sort of worked. :) now i got sessins on tty8 and 9 some how. good enough [02:01] inx-mdg: ok [02:01] JoeKerr: Install windows on half the drive or resize a current install of windows and then install ubuntu to free space. [02:01] inx-mdg: Does it need to physically be plugged into the wall. I'll have to sign off again if yes [02:01] im using 2 hard drives one for each [02:01] Dr_Willis: gdmflexiserver? [02:01] deexannihilate: yes [02:01] ok brb [02:02] JoeKerr: So that should be straight forward then. [02:02] hi [02:02] White terminal with black text or black terminal with white text? [02:02] installation was easy but after a day windows xp drive crashed [02:02] !dualboot | JoeKerr [02:02] JoeKerr: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot === naiq is now known as shamoun192 [02:02] even after i unplugged the ubuntu drive i still see grub and the hard drive fails to boot [02:02] helper: I'm sorry I'm not more help. Maybe try #ubuntu-arabic ? [02:03] JoeKerr: are you sure the correct drive is booting up and that grub's device.map is set correctly? [02:03] i just want to know if ubuntu has a habbit of wiping or crashing windows xp on a dual-boot system [02:03] JoeKerr: not without user intervention [02:03] where would I find the GUI disk manager? [02:03] ya that should so it tankawa [02:04] !gparted | LasBuntu [02:04] LasBuntu: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php [02:04] Mickael: was that a question? [02:04] JoeKerr: Linuc is actually pretty considerate of Windows. Its usually not quite so much teh other way around. [02:04] ahh, thanks [02:04] losher: more of an opinion question [02:04] LasBuntu: gparted in add/remove gnome partition editor' === toyimp is now known as ToyImp-AFK [02:05] Mickael: whichever *you* prefer. I can't see why any else's opinion would matter.... [02:05] white text is more l33t [02:05] JoeKerr: you could have BSD on there and if the same thing happened, it still wouldn't be a fault of grub, since grub does not have the ability to physically alter partition information. however, if any of grubs files became mangled in anyway, that could certainly cause a problem. [02:05] but i prefer black text on black screen [02:05] DaZ: less comedy, more support please.... [02:06] inx-mdg: ok [02:06] i use freevnc with vino vnc , when i do actions with the mouse they appear on the local desktop but not the remote one [02:06] deexannihilate1: are you on the acer or another computer now? [02:06] Any aspire one jaunty users out there tonight? [02:06] JoeKerr: without the ubuntu drive there, it means that you installed grub on the windows drive - do you get grub coming up when only the ubuntu drive is installed? [02:06] losher, i can't answer seriously on that kind of questions, forgive me <: [02:06] jaunty [02:06] is there a way to open terminal from the install option of the 9.04 livecd? [02:06] Mickael: it's off topic, but I definitely prefer black text on white for web pages... [02:06] Tenkawa: Ask your question. [02:06] Tenkawa: I'm hoping you're not going to say it doesn't work, I was going to try installing it [02:06] anyone knwo the problem? [02:06] Mickael: Ctrl-Alt-F2 [02:07] thx [02:07] The program cairo-dock -o will not open at boot I have set it up in sessions as needed..It will start from a terminal or a command line..I get a message do I want to open with opengl and click yes it will open [02:07] Mickael: then Ctrl-Alt-F7 to get back to the GUI. [02:07] what does grub error 12 mean [02:07] DaZ: as penance, answer two user questions... [02:07] another computer [02:07] huasdhaushduhas [02:07] inx-mdg: another computer [02:07] spO: make sure you enable control, its a seperate setting to just viewing. [02:07] blind|melon|chit: nah.. just wondering if anyone elses wlan card is as flaky as mine [02:07] iai galera [02:07] Mickael: or for gnome terminal, Applications->Accessories->Terminal [02:07] deexannihilate1: okay. [02:07] deexannihilate1: is the acer plugged in to the cable too? [02:08] add aii mulherada no msn gostoso_sexoo@hotmail.com === Pricey is now known as PriceChild [02:08] ray66: you can add it to startup programs list. [02:08] ray66: there is a cairo-dock channel if anyone is there they are very helpful [02:08] !br | JARDEL [02:08] JARDEL: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [02:09] linuxguy 2009 it is in session which is the starup program [02:09] inx-mdg: yes [02:09] ctmjr..hard to get some one on that channel [02:09] * losher says oops. the only thing worse than being spammed is being spammed in a foreign language... [02:09] Tenkawa: I haven't had problems with the wireless chip...on the other hand don't turn the volume up above 60% or so === PriceChild is now known as Pricey [02:09] linux, i did, are you using realvnc and vino? [02:09] deexannihilate1: good. Now on the acer, do you see a network icon? Does it look like two computers or something else? [02:09] ray66: Maybe PM me so we dont get flammed for offtopic? [02:10] blind|melon|chit: interesting [02:10] blind|melon|chit: I've not really used the audio at all on mine [02:10] inx-mdg: No. The only thing that shows is the Strength Bar of the wireless. If I was to click on edit, it would take me to network connections. [02:10] Tenkawa: Speakers are too close to the hard drive and not well shielded enough...turn the volume up to 100% and play a song, bang, corrupt hard drive [02:10] It's a known issue, no known fix [02:10] blind|melon|chit: ouch [02:10] how do i transform linux into windows xp [02:10] Tenkawa: Yeah, I didn't like hearing about it either the One is a great little netbook otherwise [02:11] blind|melon|chit: yep [02:11] deexannihilate1: okay, its using the wireless connection, not wired - because it is showing signal strength, which doesn't happen with a wired connection. [02:11] bbiaf... kernel reboot time [02:11] blind|melon|chit: seriously? Got a reference? [02:11] ophiliabooty: weird Q, why? [02:11] losher: I'll look it up [02:11] because i dnt like it [02:11] im so use to windows [02:11] th0r? [02:11] inx-mdg: No it isn't showing actual signal strength. There is an X over it. [02:11] how do you reply to someone in irc? off topic probly? [02:11] BellinXFelon: ? [02:11] izzypop: ? [02:11] when can we upgrade to karmic? [02:11] izzypop, using PM [02:11] th0r : it finished formatting [02:12] deexannihilate1: with the wired cable plugged into computer and the router, you should be able to go to the network manager, to the wired tab and setup the wired connection. [02:12] losher: The weirdest part is that one particular song reproduces the bug guaranteed, every time...some U2 song from the 90's [02:12] how much swap space should i have? [02:12] what if you want to everyone to see? [02:12] linux, i did, are you using realvnc and vino? [02:12] inx-mdg: Do I do the same thing as we did before? [02:12] blind|melon|chit: hard to believe... [02:12] well another thing thats weird is my java plug in wont work when im on firefox and i installed it several times but still nothing [02:13] deexannihilate1: click on the wired tab ... [02:13] mataks: !karmic [02:13] th0r : the external hd /dev/sdb1 finished formatting now i need to mount it [02:13] losher: I thought so too until I ruined the first one I had testing it, here's one story on it: http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/8-9-inch-acer-aspire-one-said-to-have-hard-drive-flaw-distaste/ [02:13] inx-mdg: It is plugged into the wall which runs to the router which is in the landlords house [02:13] !karmic [02:13] Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [02:13] losher: Fortunately it was covered under the warranty [02:13] inx-mdg: OK. Clicked on wired. [02:13] blind|melon|chit: you've seen the video of the guy in the machine room shouting at the hard drives? The access latency spikes when he does it... [02:13] linuxguy, the problem is not with control the problem is it doesn't update to my remote computer, ie it stays in the same state [02:13] deexannihilate1: you should see something listed under the "wired" tab of the dialog box [02:13] BellinXFelon: ok....that;s the easy part....you need to make some directories in /media....sudo mkdir /media/b1 and sudo mkdir /media/b2 [02:14] losher: I...don't think so? [02:14] blind|melon|chit: let me look.. [02:14] where should i put the mount point on my ext3 partition? [02:15] do any iof you know an easy way to bridge two ethernet connections together? [02:15] spO: uhm, yeah, more or less... at least in debian [02:15] how [02:15] spO: what do you mean by "bridge"?

[02:15] make them into one connection with one ip [02:15] Hi all, i have a problem with my wireless. I am on a gateway md2614u laptop. it has an Atheros AR5B91 draft-N wireless chipset. I am running ubuntu 9.04 x64. The problem is, the card frequently disconnects and after a few reconnects i have to reboot to get it to connect again [02:16] inx-mdg: No, there is nothing there. [02:16] blind|melon|chit: http://blogs.sun.com/bmc/entry/catching_disk_latency_in_the (It's real scary...) [02:16] spO: see the documentation in the bridge-utils package [02:16] spO: well, set them all to "manual" in /etc/network/interfaces [02:16] spO: or Documentation/bonding.txt in the kernel source [02:16] losher: I'll take a look, thanks [02:16] spO: then add an interface like "iface bridgename inet static" (or dhcp or what you have) [02:16] deexannihilate1: we need to try and setup wired again in that dialog box [02:16] spO: uhh, i didn't mean bridge-utils, i mean the ifenslave package, sorry [02:16] spO: you need then the special parameter "bridge_ports ifname1 ifname2 ..." [02:17] inx-mdg: Ok. Do I do the same thing? Making sure the DHCP is automatic and clicking apply? [02:17] thahnk [02:17] deexannihilate1: yes [02:17] inx-mdg: OK. Done. [02:17] goodnight everyone. [02:17] spO: this is a piece of my own interfaces: http://paste.ubuntu.com/236271/ [02:18] deexannihilate1: did it accept it? [02:18] It is showing the same as it did before. [02:18] inx-mdg: And it is not connecting. [02:18] deexannihilate1: left click on the network icon and tell me what you see [02:19] inx-mdg: Enable Networking (which is checked), Edit Connections.. (which loads the same screen) and About [02:19] deexannihilate1: click on the connections one again... [02:19] hi, I need the karmic repo to install the actual version of cakephp. how can I find the karmic repo, which I need? [02:19] LjL: wait, you are bridging or bonding? does he want bridging or bonding? [02:19] inx-mdg: ok [02:20] does it matter [02:20] stew: erm... both bridging, as far as i know? [02:20] deexannihilate1: need to find where it says to enable wired connection - try tools or preferences.... [02:20] stew: is that a trick question? :P [02:20] LjL: no, really :) [02:21] stew: erm, honestly, i just know it makes those interfaces behave as one for me. [02:21] when using realvnc and vino vnc, realvnc viewer does not vget updated on the remote box, but i am able to click on thigns on the local box , i just cannot really see them on the remote box because they stay in the same state [02:21] inx-mdg: it doesn't have a menu, only tabs [02:21] spO: you want to connect two different physical networks by connecting one ethernet card to each? or you wnat to connect both ethernet cards to the same network so the load can be balanced over your two network cards, thereby (theoretically) doubling your bandwidth? [02:21] inx-mdg:wired, wireless, mobile, vpn, and dsl are the only options [02:21] deexannihilate1: I'm in a CLI version of linux - let me reboot and I'll be right back. okay? [02:21] stew, i want them to have one ip [02:21] stew: oh - i'm doing the former [02:21] inx-mdg: ok [02:21] hello im using gnome.. how to have kde in my linux? like i can switch to gnome and kde.. what's the command in terminal to have kde? [02:22] Hi [02:22] mataks: you can have KDE 4 rather easilly, but there is also a way to have KDE 3 even :) [02:22] mataks, kubuntu-desktop, or kdebase [02:22] did some of you got errors like these on Ubuntu 9.04 AMD64 ? [13653.179309] cron[24381]: segfault at 23fffffff0 ip 00007f715cddda7a sp 00007fff665e7ae0 error 4 in libtalloc.so.1.2.0[7f715cdd8000+8000] [02:22] spO: are you trying to connect two otherwise disconnectecd networks (so have your machine move traffic from one to the other), or are you just trying ot connect to one network, but want to to get load balance / failover by using two cards? [02:22] spO: are those two cards each connected to a different computer, or to the same other computer? (i think that's more like what he's asking) [02:22] sebsebseb, what you prefer. kde4 or kde3? what's the difference [02:22] there are two ethernet ports on my motherbaord and i want them to use one ip [02:23] DaZ, how much space does it take? [02:23] spO: *yes*, but that's not what he's asking :( [02:23] one network [02:23] mataks, full kde around 600mb [02:23] mataks: as a graphical user interface KDE 3, and the older versions of the KDE apps, tend to be good anyway. However a lot of apps got better in KDE 4, but I can have those in Gnome anyway so :) as a GUI I don't like KDE 4 [02:23] apt-key add [keyfilehere] is saying no valid OpenPGP data found. what can I do? [02:23] spO: you want to see the documentation in the ifenslave package then [02:23] spO: install ifenslave then read /usr/share/doc/ifenslave/* [02:23] mataks, but without kdegames, wallpapers, etc. it's more like 200-300 [02:24] spO: (and for more detail Documentation/bonding.txt in the kernel source) [02:24] what about my vnc problem [02:24] when using realvnc and vino vnc, realvnc viewer does not vget updated on the remote box, but i am able to click on thigns on the local box , i just cannot really see them on the remote box because they stay in the same state [02:24] mataks: there's also XFCE by the way, and loads of windowmanagers/gui's to choose from, Fluxbox, OpenBox, etc, but most Ubuntu users will be using Gnome, KDE, or XFCE [02:24] SineDeviance: Have you tried seeing if the closed drivers work better for you? [02:25] !kde4 | mataks [02:25] mataks: KDE 4.2 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment.

[02:25] SineDeviance: Ah ok. [02:25] mataks: the panels hmm [02:25] deexannihilate: okay - I'll tell you what my networking looks like.... [02:25] mataks, you can't kde desktop is managed by plasma [02:25] should i stay with hardy heron or upgrade to ibex, heron is a long time extended support [02:26] SineDeviance: want to pastebin the output of lspci and lsusb? Whichever lists your card/ [02:26] mataks: yes KDE apps, but not all KDE apps, for example you can't have or can't just have KDE's panels in Gnome [02:26] deexannihilate: On my menu bar I have an icon that shows two computers - that's my wired network icon.

[02:30] deexannihilate: I think you misunderstand - my network icon is on the menu bar across the bottom of my screen - maybe I use the wrong word to describe that [02:30] Daz how did you know i was trying to figure that out? [02:30] mataks, i'd suggest you getting kde 4.3 release candidate [02:30] Major_Red_Hat, Da_Z_ [02:30] mataks: maybe not the best idea [02:30] should i stick with heron or upgrade to ibex [02:30] DaZ, ok imma try kde [02:30] DaZ sorry [02:31] sebsebseb, why? [02:31] inx-mdg: It says Connection Information but it is dim. [02:31] mataks: you should try kde3 :) [02:31] deexannihilate: have you ever used the terminal text editor "nano?" We may have to do this manually [02:31] he should try kde2 [02:31] Hi all. How do I set up my linux gateway so that ssh connects to one of my machines on the LAN instead of the gateway? [02:31] mataks: I don't like that KDE 4 thing much, except some of it's apps that as I already said can be run in GNome [02:31] inx-mdg: I know what you mean. I just wanted to fully describe what was across the top of my screen. [02:31] dsnyders: port forwarding [02:32] DaZ: troll :D [02:32] sebastien, using old software isn't the way [02:32] deexannihilate: its good to be clear :) I appreciate that [02:32] eh, sebsebseb8 [02:32] sebsebseb* [02:32] inx-mdg: I had the desktop set up differently, so I set it to the original ubuntu desktop, so I could access things easier when you ask. [02:32] anyone able to use blackerry desktop manager? [02:32] DaZ: KDE 3 can run in 9.04 :) the remix CD or repo, also it's rather mature and stable, since it's been around for a while [02:32] DaZ: KDE 4 is still buggy [02:32] No, I haven't [02:32] and rather bloated it is as well [02:32] sebsebseb, it's old and no longer developed [02:32] sebsebseb how good is your system [02:33] sebsebseb, isn't buggy isn't bloated [02:33] DaZ: newer is not always better, KDE 3 shoudn't just die :) [02:33] richardcavell, is that a function of iptables? [02:33] install a few apps ís best safe way :D [02:33] Major_Red_Hat: why? [02:33] deexannihilate: just as one more check - can you go to the command line and type the "ifconfig" command again and tell me what it says? [02:33] keep it simple :D [02:33] just curious [02:33] sebsebseb, Qt4 is worth it, i wouldn't go back to kde3 right now [02:33] debian rules is "keep everything is simple" [02:33] sebsebseb want to see if it's good enough to run kde 4 [02:33] Major_Red_Hat: that's irelivaint and off topic [02:33] dsnyders: yep [02:33] anyone here use nvidia fx 5500 card? [02:33] inx-mdg: same as before [02:33] on launch xchat-gnome automatically connects to ubuntu channel ... how can i change that ? [02:33] dsnyders: but you can get GUIs that make it easier [02:34] Major_Red_Hat: and yes it is, I have ran KDE 4 on here [02:34] how do I list every file in the directy and subdirectories and send that to a file? [02:34] deexannihilate: remind me please [02:34] DaZ: as a GUI KDE 4 blows, appswise though it's good [02:34] ls -f > file [02:34] molqr, right click on the server in the connect dialog and look in the properties [02:34] ? [02:34] inx-mdg: Local Loop back and included address [02:34] sebsebseb ok then stop complaing [02:34] inx-mdg: there is no mention of eth0? I believe that is what you asked earlier. [02:35] deexannihilate: okay, we need to add the network interface mannually... [02:35] ReX0r_: you want to also list files in the subdirectories? or just the subdirectories themselves? [02:35] Good evening... I've a workstation with 8.04 Hardy Heron. I got keepassx from synaptic. I think I got geany from there also. I alos see that chntpw is available. I've put 9.04, Jaunty Jackalope on my laptop. Neither keepassx, nor geany, nor chntpw are available through synaptic. Do I need to add repositories, or wait, or what? [02:35] nikolatesla: why do you want to upgrade from hardy? [02:35] jdu: you are a lifesaver :) [02:35] richardcavell, Do tell! I've been using webmin, but truth be told I don't really understand how iptables works. [02:35] you at the command line? Let me know when you are ready - you will need to know your root password [02:35] jdu: thanks so so much [02:35] inx-mdg: i am here [02:35] why must fresinstall ubuntu 9 [02:35] ? [02:36] molqr, np [02:36] where should i set the mountpoint of my ext3 partition? [02:36] inx-mdg: is it different than the administrator passwork? [02:36] okay, type: sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces - it should ask for password [02:36] seb i dunno if i should upgrade [02:36] okay im in recovery mode still...i am looking for Command line apps for : editing .doc, listening to shoutcast radio and play mp3 [02:36] molqr, i'm sure ubuntu is happy about it :) [02:36] Mickael, /etc/fstab ? [02:36] i thought hardy is a long range support for 2 more years [02:36] inx-mdg: ok [02:36] deexannihilate: let me know what show up in that file [02:36] after doing a apt-get source blah; and modifying the code to patch it; what's the ubuntuway to recompile it into a *.deb and install it? [02:36] nikolatesla: yeah it's the long term support [02:36] does it matter where? [02:36] J4ackass, as far as the mp3, you can use mplayer. [02:36] can anyone recommend a package for doing circuit simulations? [02:37] !lts | nikolatesla [02:37] nikolatesla: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be 10.04 [02:37] dsnyders [02:37] inx-mdg: auto lo and iface lo inet loopback [02:37] thanks [02:37] i will upgrade once the sunset support window happens if i still have this machine [02:37] jdu: sorry it does sound that i m deserter ... but how can i desert it when my life depends on it.. [02:37] there is a version called ibex [02:37] Mickael, are you asking where to mount partition or where is the config file? [02:37] long live the FSF community [02:37] molqr, just kidding, i'm sure many have done it [02:37] okay we need to add this to the file: auto eth0 -- type that on one line and press enter [02:37] but ibex is not lts from what i understand [02:37] where to mount the partition [02:37] J4ackass, It may also do the Shoutcast. I know it can do some streaming audio (and video). [02:38] im installing ubuntu [02:38] deexannihilate: then: iface eth0 inet loopback and press enter [02:38] nikolatesla: 8.10 could be worth upgrading to, but that stops being supported next April, also 9.10 is out at the end of October with default Ext4, which means people need to clean install Ubuntu for full support. So yeah you may want to do that when 9.10 is out, in the mean time you could upgrade to 8.10, but by doing so you may lose Internet connection it happended to me on the other computer, and a few other people had same [02:38] molqr, just kind of funny to ask about not connecting to the channel you are asking in [02:38] problem. However 8.10 is a nice release. [02:38] nikolatesla: Intrepid Ibex ... we usually refer to it as Intrepid [02:38] jdu: yeah... i only wanted to know if it can be done ... [02:38] Mickael, wherever you want [02:38] lowlycoder: the easiest way is to install checkinstall. It will build a deb for you... [02:38] dsnyders: truthfully, neither do I [02:38] ;) === Carlos is now known as Guest72213 [02:38] jdu: precisely... and for that reason i thought a bit about it but then i had to ask :( [02:38] Is Ext4 reliable enough now?

[02:39] mistergibson: it isn't exactly completly tested, in a long term sitiuation... Cant have expectations for that [02:39] deexannihilate: actually you could put it above so its the first interface [02:39] mistergibson: It's not as bad as reiser, no, but it's not 100% there yet either [02:39] right [02:39] Pricey, im pastebinning my lspci now [02:39] mistergibson: as of 2.6.28 its considered "stable" fwiw [02:39] sweet, looks like they've come a ways [02:39] heron works ok i will stay put for now [02:40] deexannihilate: nano is a lot like notepad - you can move the cursor with the arrow keys and such...

[03:11] dsnyders: Yes, but I can switch to another, try again with everything you said and see if it works === _MrsApple_ is now known as _MrApple_ [03:11] .meh hard to be patient when my main computer isnt working [03:11] deexannihilate, If the cable has worked in the past it's probably fine.

[03:12] agroker: System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [03:12] dsnyders: the wall [03:12] guess the only answer is to delete ubuntu and use windows ;x [03:12] eboyjr, it is not there :-( [03:12] deexannihilate: oh.....

[03:14] in desktop i go to applicatiosn, then i add or remove, and i don't see things like ssh server or anything much server related [03:14] dsnyder: if I was to try on the plug i'm using for my desktop. would i just have to restart or would i have to redo any commands? [03:14] I'll switch both the cord and the jack and see if it works [03:15] dsnyder: i'll switch both and see if it works? [03:15] inx-mdg: yes [03:15] deexannihilate, Sorry, what are you switching?

[03:37] inx-mdg: i noticed the largest problem with the wireless when I am at starbucks. people around me have no problem getting it, but it takes me forever to connect to it [03:37] anyone know why after installing nvidia drivers my conky setup gets completely messed up? its stuck on the bottom of the screen now, i had it perfect :( [03:37] <_adam__> ##testinghere [03:38] get over it goo i installed drivers and my ubuntu died [03:38] heh [03:38] Anyone know about Wicd?

[03:39] inx-mdg: i've been having the at&t wifi (starbucks) since i got it [03:40] losher, thats why i was tryin to figure out how to get it to the .iso image cause the instructions call for that [03:40] GodfatherofEire: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization [03:40] deexannihilate: so wifi at starbucks, but not at home? [03:40] alex: you think updating ubuntu before restarting for nvidia drivers caused it? [03:40] inx-mdg: I can't seem to get it to connect to a WEP network. All the guides online pretty much consist of 'switch to wpa' which I cant. [03:40] Flannel, I know, thats what I'm usin [03:40] Godzuki: what's been happneing ? [03:40] how can I check whether I run 32 or 64 bit installation? [03:40] GodfatherofEire: we can make an iso if you want.... [03:40] Thrash--: I wasn't paying attention so IDK what your problem even was =P [03:41] Godzuki: I recall something about adding the character "x" to the end of he password when you put it in - sounds strange I know.... [03:41] alex: it couldnt find my display after i restarted [03:41] losher, I already have the CD in the drive and dl'd on the other comp [03:41] if only I could find my 16gig USB drive [03:41] inx-mdg: i click connect, it says something along the lines of laying interface, then loses it. [03:41] alex: i installed nvidia drivers and then did the ubuntu update thing then restarted [03:41] which i probably left at the office [03:41] again [03:42] GodfatherofEire: well, let me know when you have an actual question :-) [03:42] inx-mdg: it will also lose the networks and never pick them back up until I reset. [03:42] I'm having trouble with a wifi interface. For reasons unknown, it won't come up [03:42] Any ideas how to troubleshoot it? [03:42] Godzuki: what network card? [03:42] losher, so do you know of a way to just to make the .iso file from the actual CD? [03:42] agroker: uname -a [03:42] inx-mdg; It happens at home, but not as frequently [03:42] agroker: uname -a [03:42] deexannihilate: hmm..... [03:42] inx-mdg: wg111t usb. All drivers installed with ndiswrapper. [03:43] inx-mdg: I show a stronger connection at starbucks, but it is harder to keep the signal. It just runs really slow and low at home [03:43] GodfatherofEire: yes, wait a mo while I peek in my shell script [03:43] asdfadf [03:43] 1233444321233211123334444444443321 [03:43] no prob [03:43] Thrash--: I know it's a stupid question... but did you get the right drivers? [03:43] Godzuki: I wonder if that adapter supports wpa? [03:43] i think there was a way to do it from the terminal, but I cant remember for sure [03:43] uname -a says only i686 - does that mean 32 or 64 bit? [03:44] deexannihilate: maybe directly under connection is the problem at home... [03:44] inx-mdg: im not sure. the router is set to wep as one of the other desktops is legacy [03:44] agroker: That is 32 bit [03:44] HEY [03:44] aleX-xx, thanks === andrea is now known as Guest60993 [03:44] any one up for webcam chat? [03:45] GodfatherofEire: first, run isoinfo -d -i /dev/cdrom and note down the number where it says 'volume size is: nnnnnnn' [03:45] inx-mdg: okay, the site says it will support it [03:45] yes im pretty sure [03:45] there wasn't an option between x86 and x64 tho [03:45] Godzuki: reports I'm reading say problem with WEP setup.... [03:46] grr, it was dhclient being a pITA [03:46] thanks.. sort of [03:46] inx-mdg: it is definitely a possibility. I just figured since it was a known problem, the driver was possibly the problem, so i tried to fix it. and i ended up breaking it! [03:46] Godzuki: you are using 9.04? [03:46] hey all [03:46] inx-mdg: the newest one is 9.04 right? then yes. [03:46] deexannihilate: I've done that before myself...

Have you ever let the battery run down?

[03:50] deexannihilate, the apparent solution is to delete ~/.gconf/system/networking directory [03:51] losher, sorry, had to go downstairs for a sec [03:51] Godzuki: I'm not seeing any solutions yet... [03:51] why is there no colors in irssi? [03:51] inx-mdg: I can only connect to unencrypted networks. [03:52] dsnyders: how do I go about doing it? [03:52] well i guess its irssi under screen [03:52] Godzuki: yikes! [03:52] dsnyders: I'm reading through the thread [03:52] deexannihilate, Okay, read through it first, and see if it sounds like your symptoms [03:53] inx-mdg: and i was going to try using wireshark to see what was happening, and now it wont install [03:53] lol [03:53] dsnyders: post #11 [03:53] [03:53] how do you install these drivers from the site alex [03:53] im a total linux noo [03:53] b [03:53] inx-mdg, Yes.

Anyone out there good with this sort of stuff cause i suck... its an ati radeon card i believe [03:55] GodfatherofEire: do you have what you need? [03:56] first off how do i find out for sure what the card is? [03:56] Godzuki: sorry, not seeing a solution...

They are a little difficult to read though if you don't know how! [04:15] edbian: thanks [04:16] dsnyders: under root? [04:16] dsnyders: it lists the same two ethernet controller [04:16] Gadu: NP!

[04:17] god [04:17] think its time to run windows recovery disc and give up on linux [04:17] !ufw | tonsofpcs [04:17] tonsofpcs: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist [04:17] tonsofpcs: ufw, or firestarter [04:17] edbian: ok I understand the listed owner and read write etc listed but I don't know the number associated with that so I can chmod another to the same thing [04:17] thanks Jeruvy [04:18] Hmm. kernel bug reports in ubuntu should go to ubuntu? [04:18] no gui tool preinstalled with default netbook remix then? [04:18] dsnyders: don't know if you saw the messages I typed before: it lists the same two ethernet controllers [04:18] Gadu: Just remember this. Read = 4 Write = 2 Execute = 1 [04:18] so the nvidia drivers that linux tells me to install crash my computer and dont allow X to run? [04:18] doesnt make much sense to me [04:18] orluk: sure it's specific to ubuntu (unless your using a custom kernel) [04:18] Gadu: The chown command changes the owner or group [04:18] Gadu: If you add Read and Write, you get 6 [04:19] deexannihilate1, They seem to be scrolled off my history [04:19] Gadu: Look at "man chown" :) [04:19] I see [04:19] Gadu: He said chmod, not chown [04:19] Jeruvy: was too drunk last night to drag the hardware over to a different linux system but i will test when i get home [04:19] Thrash--: are you just banging your head through this, or are you following a howto or the documentation page? [04:19] so I can see the "mobile broadband" connection in my "network connections" but I can't see any way to connect to it. How do I connect to it?

[04:32] deexannihilate1: your welcome - wish I could have done more [04:32] inx-mdg, I didn't think about checking the logs until a few minutes ago. [04:32] Anyone?

[04:33] Jeruvy, ok thanks I will learn how to install from usb [04:33] dsnyders: is there anyway to save it, so you can take a look? [04:34] it appears most is off topic [04:34] My ubuntu systems USB ports all seem to lock up requiring a reboot. has anybody else seen this? [04:34] mel: good luck [04:34] Jeruvy, thanks heh I will need it, been a while since I've done anything linuxish =) [04:34] orlok: did it always do that? [04:34] Hi room [04:35] anyone here have tried running windowsOS on virtualbox? [04:35] !install | mel [04:35] mel: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways.

Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate [04:35] deexannihilate1, Sure, just upload the file to pastebin... once you get the networking working :-) [04:35] mataks_: I have. A while ago. === Bruno is now known as Guest27263 [04:35] dsnyders: can i transfer it to a memory stick and put it up on this computer? [04:36] deexannihilate1, ... or you could copy /var/log/messages onto a usb, and use your desktop to copy it to pastebin [04:36] mataks_: do you also have a real question ? [04:36] OK FWIW - ubuntu LTS 8.04 supports > 2T partitions just fine [04:36] deexannihilate1, you beat me to it. [04:36] no need to recompile kernel [04:36] edbian, if you install a windowsOS on virtual box do you still have to install the drivers? like video card driver sound and the mainboard [04:36] Why wouldnt my windows partition show up during installation? [04:36] mataks_: I do remember one quarky thing though. I had to go to Settings -> General -> Advanced -> Extended Features and turn them all on (accept the VT-x/AMD-V one I think) [04:36] dsnyders: :) so should i exit and type the copy command? [04:37] Anyone? [04:37] deexannihilate1, yes, type in q to exit less [04:37] if I have an Intel Core 2 Duo, but I'm running a 64bit distro [04:37] mataks_: If you tell virtual box that you're running windows it will choose hardware for the virtual machine that solves all of the driver issues. [04:37] should I get Swiftfox for AMD64 or Prescot?? [04:37] Just curious. Anyone remember the CPU speed of a home PC back in 2000 or 2001? [04:37] edbian, so it uses the driver on your main OS to the virtual box? [04:37] ToyImp: Try #ubuntu-offtopic instead, thanks. [04:37] Ziber: chosen manual partitoning ? [04:38] ToyImp: i had a 700-1Ghz or so Athlon/K7 iirc [04:38] it says command not found [04:38] orlok, thanks :) [04:38] DasEi: tbh, i've never done this before. one i hit next after that, it'll let me configure it out i want to? [04:38] Flannel, thanks for the channel info as well. [04:38] mataks_: It creates a virtual computer. Said computer is made up of virtual hardware. Virtualbox will purposefully choose only hardware that works with 0 configuration for whatever operating system you choose. [04:38] deexannihilate1, were you already out of less? [04:38] dsnyders: yes :( [04:39] mataks_: I have a Broadcom Wireless card and a wired nic on my host system. On my virtual system all I have is a single works out of the box generic network card (it's virtual) get it? [04:39] Ziber : the installer asks you , what have you selected ? [04:39] deexannihilate1, If you could pastebin the /var/log/dmesg file as well, please [04:40] If i have a Core2Duo and a 64bit distro, should I get Swiftfox for AMD64 or Prescot?? [04:40] dsnyders: how do i get the command to work? [04:41] anyone? [04:41] deexannihilate1, sorry, by "pastebin" I meant "copy the file to a memory stick, take it to your desktop, and upload them to the pastebin website" [04:41] Ziber: you can add your windows install to grub manually let me know if you want the info. [04:41] edbian, no. my questions is.. do you still need to install drivers on installed Windows in virtualbox? [04:42] dsnyders: i tried the command and it didn't work. [04:42] dsnyders: possibly because i am at home [04:42] deexannihilate1, what command? [04:42] mataks_: If you tell virtual box what OS you're using you will need to install 0 drivers [04:42] If i have a Core2Duo and a 64bit distro, should I get Swiftfox for AMD64 or Prescot?? [04:42] dsnyders: i though i was supposed to type copy /car/log/messages [04:42] dsnyders: *var [04:43] FFighter: for security reasons I would stick with Firefox. [04:43] deexannihilate1, Sorry, cp is the copy command in linux [04:44] dsnyders: it says missing destination file operand after [04:44] but if you must then use the prescott [04:44] dsnyders: how should i type it in? [04:45] anyone have experience with running windows 7 in ubuntu (virtually), or virtualization within ubuntu period? [04:45] deexannihilate1, you can copy the file to the memory stick using the gui if you wish [04:45] sombody? [04:46] deexannihilate1, otherwise the command is cp source destination [04:46] deexannihilate1, so cp /var/log/messages /path/to/memory/stick [04:47] dsnyders: add a colon ":" before the command shown. It makes it more clear for the user. [04:47] wade, firefox is so damn resource-hogging [04:47] deexannihilate1, whatever that path to memory stick may be [04:47] Sassy1, good point.

[06:29] so far i've found it might be a power supply problem stryker [06:29] RenatoSilva: sudo update-grub [06:30] Flannel: I compared the new menu.lst with the current and it did not show any diff, so I kept the current [06:30] Nisstyre56: really?

[06:31] Flannel: update-grub [06:31] sometimes works but its not working since two days [06:32] ecumenical: I check the proprietar drivers, it searches but none are found [06:32] christopher: whats your problem?

[06:33] ecumenical, something like thin client/ [06:33] ecumenical: it is an inspiron e1405, dell integrated, ran 9.04 in beta with no problems, but now i do. I think it's ipwl 43something [06:33] stryker, you said he installed new drivers, do you remember exactly what type of drivers?

The driver shows up as activated, but opengl doesn't seem to be available to any applications. Does anyone have any suggestions how I can go about getting opengl support working? [06:35] ecumenical: what are kernel-backports? [06:35] ubottu, backports [06:35] If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging [06:36] Nisstyre56: im not sure it has to do with that, because not even the bios comes up, if it would have to do with that, i would guess ubuntu would not show up, but the bios post would [06:36] that is true [06:36] christopher_, I have had troubles with wireless cards in the past which has been resolved by installing the backports [06:36] (DasEi) they say zero on one side and mm on the other [06:36] christopher_, can you hook your dell up to the internet via ethernet? [06:36] well, checked to see if the mobo lights are on? [06:37] yeah [06:37] ecumenical: it's working atm, i found that when it messes up just reconnect to network and its fine [06:37] ecumenical: how do i install backports? [06:37] oh, ok [06:37] !backports [06:37] If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging [06:39] pootsz : are the speaker icons above the sliders green ? (click-able) [06:39] random question, can a graphics card be literally "turned off" ? [06:39] christopher_, search for 'backports' in synaptic [06:39] christopher_, make sure it matches your current kernel version.. you might not need backports if your card is working though [06:39] stryker, has he tried calling acer tech support? [06:39] if it's a hardware problem..they should help [06:39] Nisstyre56: no [06:39] I removed latest kernel and it does not show anymore in update manager!!! [06:39] I dunno how "helpful" they'll actually be [06:40] stryker: by bios or disabled by soft, yes [06:40] How can ubuntu be updated if I just removed the latest kernel? [06:40] disable by soft, what do you mean? [06:40] ecumenical: how do i know which one i need? [06:40] DasEi, can we just use SSH for authentication and to transfer the users' home directories while the local resources are used for processing?

I probably wouldn't install it unless you know it will definately fix your problem. [06:41] stryker: Try resetting the BIOS? [06:41] how can we do that? we tried.. but we dont know how [06:41] Would installing backports potentially be detrimental to christopher_'s PC? Anyone? [06:42] stryker: Remove the battery, unplug it, and find the reset button. Could be on the back, or possible under the keyboard. [06:42] ecumenical: it will work for a while, then it will just stop working for about 5 minutes, or until i reset the connection [06:42] can anyone point me to a good resource for getting opengl to work? I have the binary driver installed, but opengl is not working for me (it has in the past, but I had to reinstall). [06:42] ecumenical: you can use ssh while the serving machine is in use. if you want to sync home dirs, use unison or rsync [06:42] WeblionX: wait, what about the CMOS? [06:42] DasEi: what did you mean by turning off the card by soft? [06:42] ricree, if it's nvidia it has to work [06:43] [06:43] stryker: What do you mean what about it? [06:43] DaZ: What do you mean? [06:43] WeblionX: how can I reset cmos? via the mobo? [06:43] DasEi, so each node on the network would necessarily have all of the home directories stored locally? [06:43] My audio isn't working, and I'm not sure whats wrong. Can someone help me? [06:43] stryker: Remove the battery, unplug it, and find the reset button. Could be on the back, or possible under the keyboard. [06:43] stryker: many cards can be switched by software, so following shut down also ( think of overheating) [06:44] stryker: You probably have to hold it for 5-10 seconds. [06:44] ricree, nvidia just works [06:44] WeblionX: hmm [06:44] I try pinging things in Ubuntu, and get "destination host unreachable". What to do? [06:44] DasEi: ok, i see [06:44] christopher_, are you using WPA or WEP encryption on the router? [06:44] ecumenical: any idea? [06:44] DaZ: well.... unfortunately not for me at the moment. I suppose I'll just try reinstalling the drivers again, if no one has any other suggestions [06:45] ricree, i don't even know what model do you have [06:45] Ziber, go to system >> administration >> network tools, select the traceroute tab, type in google.com, paste the results to pastebin and report back [06:45] so everything i can do is say... works or me [06:45] ecumencial: wpa i believe, but it happens with an a connection with no security [06:46] ricree, lsmod|grep nvidia [06:46] thank you for the help I'm following the instructions on the web page [06:46] DaZ: it's a geforce 9600M, though as I said, it's worked in the past [06:46] ecumenical: no and yes, I 'm not sure if I get you right; if you got 4 machines and 4 users, they all would have their own account on each machine, so they could login from anywhere, and then still have to sync it.. [06:46] actually, I don't think you can copy paste from there [06:46] DaZ: nvidia 7233756 23 [06:47] Nisstyre56: we tried looking for that in the mobo but we couldn't find it, im pretty sure its on the mobo [06:47] ricree, nvidia-xconfig and kill the xserver [06:47] Can someone help me with my audio issues? [06:47] ecumenical: if the scene is a bigger one, you will set up a server, in which all the accounts are, and small (thin ) clients environment [06:48] do you still have the manual for the laptop/mobo stryker ? [06:48] DasEi, well, it would be easier to set up an account for each user on only one node, rather than creating any arbitrary number of users on any number of nodes, In order for this lab to \scale easily.i [06:48] well, we got one online Nisstyre56 [06:48] DasEi, for instance, a campus wide implementation of portable user accounts across multiple lab environments. [06:48] hmm, see if it says anything about flashing the bios [06:49] ecumenical: should I have propriety drivers to use? I have before [06:49] christopher_, if there are proprietary drivers available. Did you check under System>>Administration>>Hardware Drivers? [06:50] Nisstyre56: ok [06:50] ecumenical: for sure, especialy if you can't expect technical user knowledge [06:50] Daz: Just did that. It didn't help [06:51] DasEi, so I should research the LTSP then? [06:51] I am connecting to a wireless network but I can't browse internet pages? any idea? i am using ubuntu 09.04? [06:51] Ziber: if you still need help "sudo apt-get install traceroute" "traceroute google.com" copy paste to pastebin, post the link [06:51] ecumenical: it searches, then says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system." [06:51] ricree, glxinfo|grep direct, what driver version [06:51] christopher_, are there any drivers listed in the box? [06:51] ecumenical: nope [06:52] christopher_, ok... hmm [06:52] I wanted to get a huge printout, the image is 8000x8000 pixels, do you guys know where can I get one page printout of this image, dividing and adding up doesnt seem to be a good solution [06:52] phylon, what size is the paper you wish to print on? [06:52] ecumenical: in the last version, i had a wireless driver and video driver [06:53] DaZ:Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". [06:53] Where can I find a comprehensive description of Chatzilla? [06:53] ecumenical: I'm no specialist on that field, that is one way, and linux as server in general, mentioning the fact you want to connect the lab groups inbetween [06:53] christopher_, can you roll back to 8.10 or 8.04 LTS? [06:53] bullgard4 what do you need help with? [06:53] christopher_, that or try Linux Mint [06:53] ecumenical: i'll have to download it, before when i installed 9.04 beta, i had the drivers listed [06:54] ecumenical, I am not sure, the pixel 8000x8000 is optimal for seeing the text in the image, going lower will make it smaller and unreadable [06:54] christopher_, or CrunchBang. [06:54] Nisstyre56: An account of its capabilities and integration in the Seamonkey project. [06:54] ecumenical: CrunchBand? [06:54] join [06:54] well it works like other irc clients bullgard4 [06:55] https://addons.mozilla.org/eu/seamonkey/addon/16 [06:55] christopher_, http://crunchbanglinux.org/ http://www.linuxmint.com/ [06:55] Nisstyre56: Your statement is unqualified. [06:55] can i install netbook launcher on xubuntu === [1]Sergeant_Pony is now known as Sergeant_Pony2 [06:55] phylon, I don't think that you need an 8000 pixel image in order to read the text. that is aproximately 111 inches. [06:56] phylon, is there a copy of the image online? === jay is now known as Guest2693 [06:56] ricree, there's one libglx extension with the nvidia driver and one vanilla in the system [06:56] ecumenical, sorry no, [06:57] ecumenical: yes I can lower the resolution [06:57] ricree, it's this or old nvidia module [06:57] phylon, yes, using the GIMP or whatever. That shouldn't render your text illegible. [06:57] bullgard4: http://chatzilla.hacksrus.com/ [06:58] phylon, make sure that you constrain the proportions when you downsample. you might be skewing the image? Just a thought. [06:58] i don't know ubuntu directories enough to fix this but driver reinstall or reboot may help [06:58] Is nvidia nforce nic supported by Ubuntu? [06:58] Ziber is that an onboard nic? [06:58] I think I've figured out part of my audio issues, but I need someone to confirm. I forced ALSA to reload, and I got the following message "WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base, it will be ignored in a future release." Is that what the problem is? [06:59] yeah... pretty sure. [06:59] ecumenical, so if I make it 111x111 inches printout I should get readable image ? [06:59] but thats huge [06:59] Ziber boot up the live cd, and if you can connect to the internet you're fine [06:59] its 12'x12' [07:00] Nisstyre56: ... wasnt able to before when i tried... [07:00] phylon, 111x111 inches is huge. Printer paper is typically 8.5x11 inches. [07:00] Soo...can anyone tell me how to permanently disable the system beep... [07:00] ecumenical: yes I know that, I was thinking of going to fedex kinko or someplace that they can help with it [07:00] Ziber you weren't able to boot from the CD? Did you try changing the boot order in your bios settings? [07:01] but I think 12'x12' is almost impossible for me to work on [07:01] haha [07:01] Nisstyre56: I could boot from the CD, I couldnt get internet from the live cd, I mean. [07:01] phylon, try downsampling the image to 612x612 pixels [07:01] Oh [07:01] I figured that was just a limitation of the live cd... [07:01] -what could be if i cannot change nor keyboard layout neither gnome theme? [07:01] I got internet with my Live cd... [07:02] And you couldn't ping any sites Ziber? Is the light on your ethernet port on? [07:02] (even in desktop's root) [07:02] viceversa [07:02] :p [07:02] I'm using the terminal and in "@gnu" the @ and g are too closer, almost one over the other. What's this? [07:02] phylon, yea 9ft by 9ft is pretty darn big :-) [07:02] Nisstyre56: no sites, cant even ping the router's IP [07:02] sziasztok magyarországból van valaki ? [07:03] ecumenical: yeah, and I need to work on it with rulers and stuff [07:03] o god [07:03] could be a problem with dhcp. Check to see if a green led light comes on and off when you take the ethernet cable out of the pc first though [07:03] RenatoSilva: try changing the font, or resizing it... [07:03] RenatoSilva, what terminal are you using?

And of course, any current data will be lost... [07:51] dhclient did nothing :( [07:52] losher: there simlink, another mount-point or something else?

A decent client will check that 'last changed' date of the file & see that nothing has changed & hence skip the rehash [07:59] losher: The problem is the drive isn't mounted on startup, so the client removes it and the hash. [08:00] hi all [08:00] !hi [08:00] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [08:00] WeblionX: I must be missing something. Boot, then mount the drive, then start the client. Why would the client think anything changed...? [08:00] Losher: My guess is either the client autostarts, or he just forgets to mount it. [08:01] Does apparmor come installed with ubuntu 8.10?

[08:15] helvete is 172.16.*.* within the range of local non routable addresses? [08:15] is vmnet0 bridged to eth interface? [08:16] durando: the space issue is minimal and given ever-dropping disk prices, hard to get excited about. The privacy issue is another matter entirely. [08:16] WeblionX: no i havent i'll try that now [08:16] canuck1: yes i think it is [08:16] durando: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91154 [08:17] dotness: my ifconfig shows only lo and eth0 [08:17] losher: i was not refering to hdd space (i have 5tb on my network) i was refering to the space on the menu it self [08:17] thansk for the replies guys [08:17] durando: I'm guessing that's what you tried? [08:17] durando: I have an idea. === sleepy_cat is now known as c_nick [08:18] WeblionX: yea i have done that and it leave it grayed out which fixes the privacy issue but i cant remove it from the menu [08:18] durando: ah, makes more sense.... [08:18] Ahh... [08:18] helvete I haven't worked with OSX enough to give you much help [08:18] hi [08:19] ok [08:19] not to mention that hack also makes errors in terminal window when you edit docs [08:19] this is not my channel :-p [08:19] see ya [08:19] canuck1: i dont think osx is the issue, i believe its how vmware sets up the connection [08:19] go back to macworld [08:19] man, osx is solid [08:19] its based on a unix system [08:19] I know that [08:20] i'm talking to Libra102 [08:20] hola [08:20] err libtech [08:20] but he left :\ [08:20] hah I did not see that, I thought you were ranting [08:20] I was like crap man take a chill pill [08:20] osx is ok but........its also part of the evil empire [08:20] durando i agree [08:20] also, it has nothing to do with this channel [08:21] moin [08:21] helvete well so you have a LAN right? like a router etc? [08:21] boohbah it does as i'm running it parallel with ubuntu [08:21] helvete: I don't see a gateway in your interfaces file, offhand. How are packets supposed to get off the local network segment> [08:21] canuck1: bridging in vmware worked [08:21] helvete I was getting to that. I thought it would [08:21] did he tryed to set up a ubuntu-router? [08:21] losher sorry, i must have deleted it, i was playing with that file for the last 2 hours [08:22] :( [08:22] This is starting to annoying the shit out of me. [08:22] boohbah it does have to do with this channel as i'm using it in parallel with ubuntu [08:22] thanks very much [08:22] WeblionX: thanks [08:22] helvete: You're welcome. :) [08:23] don't worry Ziber, one thing that you can try is setting up a static ip in Ubuntu [08:23] so i just have one more question if you'll indulge me, i'm trying to set it up so that i can connect to this vm using eclipse, only way i have been able to connect to the vm is by configuring samba, but i dont think thats ment to be entirely nessessary [08:23] is there another way to do it [08:23] Nisstyre56: already have, no success [08:23] okay [08:24] and the sys logs on your router had no errors? [08:24] question: so i'm setting up a home server. when i first installed ubuntu, it wasn't connected to the network, so i told it don't configure the network. now it's connected, how do i bring up the network? [08:24] wells guys thanks for the conversation and the help, but i gotta get some sleep have a goodnight [08:24] How can i stop Jaunty from remembering apps from a whole ago and starting them at login [08:24] its very annoying all this stuff poping up and lagging the computer [08:24] iMatter: which apps? [08:24] Ziber: mind your language though, we've got minors and people from different cultures here [08:24] i would like to have a script on my desktop that does the following: when i execute it, it should log me out of gnome and automatically without password question into openbox, is that possible somehow ? [08:24] iMatter: probably you've got "remember session" selected in sys -> prefs -> startup [08:25] losher, frogzoo i disabled that and it still does it [08:25] spionspionspions: Check if openbox has a --replace option. [08:25] iMatter: check the system - settings - sessions [08:25] Myrtti: Sorry :/ [08:25] iMatter: lol, that sux [08:25] iMatter: it might be that you're loading a session from long time ago when you login [08:25] Myrtti, disabled it a while ago about 5 logins ago.. and its still doing it [08:25] Weblionx : replace? why? i would use that to switch the window manager to openbox wouldnt i? [08:25] bitwiseshiftleft, sudo ifconfig eth0/wlan0/whatever up ? [08:26] Isn't that what you're going for? [08:26] iMatter: disabled saving a new session yes, but perhaps you are *loading* a saved session [08:26] post the output of "dmesg | grep eth0" in pastebin Ziber [08:26] Weblionx: i said that i want to be logged out of gnome [08:26] Myrtti, how can i fix that.. [08:26] spionspionspions: Ah, I see, sorry. A bit late here. :X [08:27] end the gnome session, start the openbox session. :) thx anyway [08:27] jason__: that doesn't give it an ip, resolv.conf, etc [08:27] i guess the script would have to change something in the gdm config [08:28] I don't know if it's really possible to do that. [08:28] spionspionspions, would having gnome launch a new X server before it shuts down work? [08:28] bitwiseshiftleft: It sounds like you need to reconfigure the network package. [08:29] bitwiseshiftleft, well, then use dhclient or set the ip using ifconfig and write your own resolv.conf? Or are you looking to have this done sort of automatically? [08:29] iMatter: you've checked the application autostart too that there's nothing there? I don't have Ubuntu myself (I use Xubuntu) so I can't give you exact howto, but system - session - sessions should have a way for you to check what's in the session that's loaded. And perhaps login settings (GDM) has something too, about logging in with a saved session [08:29] WeblionX: how do i do that? [08:29] jason_ i dont want a new xserver... i know i could do it easily like that, i cant imagine that having the process of logging out of gnome, switching the default session to openbox in gdm and then logging in automated to be really difficult... mm [08:30] Myrtti, i checked, none of the apps that are loading are in there [08:30] spionspionspions: all things are easy to he who doesn't have to do it himself.... [08:30] jason__: yes, automatically. like ifup should do it, but it's throwing permissions errors even when run as root [08:30] bitwiseshiftleft: `dpkg-reconfigure networkmanager` or whatever the networking package is. I'm not quite sure. [08:30] iMatter: so are you every gonna tell me which apps? [08:31] losher, Pidgin/Mail/Firefox/some panel error thing/terminal/etc [08:32] losher : i wanna do it myself, but i just cant find the file where my default session is stored... [08:32] how do I change start up sound in 9.04? [08:33] iMatter: ok, those are desktop related i.e. not leftover rc scripts. sorry, I cant help you... [08:33] !ifconfig [08:33] Sorry, I don't know anything about ifconfig [08:33] Greasy_Larry: System -> Preferences -> Sound [08:33] hi all, a have some trouble.. when i run deluge, GUI isn't running.. in debug: signalreceiver:82 Trying again with another port: [Errno 99] Cannot assign requested address [08:33] !route [08:33] Sorry, I don't know anything about route [08:33] spionspionspions: it's an odd requirement, to say the least. Can I ask why you want to do this? [08:34] !eth [08:34] Sorry, I don't know anything about eth [08:34] hahaha [08:34] Weblionx: I tried that there is no way to change it. [08:34] spionspionspions: Well, you might be able to make a script that uses something with `gnome-session-save --kill`, but I don't know of any ways to login via a script. [08:34] boy, ubottu's just a wealth of information tonight... [08:34] !ko [08:34] 도움이 필요하시면 다음 채널에 조인하십시오. /join #ubuntu-ko [08:34] What the heck. [08:34] Oh! [08:34] My? [08:34] can anybody help me?? [08:35] i know this probably comes up way too much but when is FF 3.5 going to be released into ubuntu repos? [08:35] sudo apt-get install xchat <- m.m? [08:35] Greasy_Larry: System -> Administration -> Login Window -> Accessibility [08:35] isn't "Web Browser" basically the same thing as 3.5? [08:35] -> Login screen ready: [08:35] losher: of course to switch to openbox comfortably when i want it. hmm come to think of it, if gdm doesnt supply some kind of "log-me-out-and-then-again-in" command it cant work.... [08:36] Weblionx: I'll try that again. [08:36] spionspionspions, can you just do openbox --replace and then kill all the gnome processes? [08:36] spionspionspions: You can set up Ubuntu to autologin, so you might want to look into that to see if there's some command to use. [08:37] Are there someone who knows using autofs? [08:37] Weblionx: i know i know, the thing is when ubuntu is set to autologin i still have to put in my password/username when i logged out [08:38] spionspionspions: I know, I'm just saying, if you look into the code behind that you might find some way of doing it. [08:38] anyone care to comment on when FF 3.5 is going to be released into ubuntu repos? [08:38] purplenurple: er, I thought it already is? [08:38] WeblionX, checking... [08:38] !ff35 > purplenurple [08:38] purplenurple, please see my private message [08:39] jesus, just found a bugreport that behaves exactly like i want it ;) they shouldnt have fixed that [08:40] It's a feature not a bug spionspionspions? : P [08:40] join /firefox [08:40] idd :) [08:40] spionspionspions: you might find something you can adapt from here -> http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Frontend_Auto_Login [08:42] looks interesting, thx losher [08:42] !off topic [08:42] Sorry, I don't know anything about off topic [08:42] spionspionspions: download the source code and back out the bugfix. "Shouldn't be that hard"... [08:42] er, what's the chan for off topic again? [08:43] Nisstyre56: #ubuntu-offtopic [08:43] losher, but it would be kinda redundant, im pretty positive it will work with some lines of scripting [08:44] spionspionspions: well, you're a half-full kind of guy. Can't argue with that... [08:45] plus this is my assignement for another project, for lazy ppl... :) [08:45] http://www.lostworlds.lv/go.php?1139723800 [08:45] don't click that link [08:46] is there an equivalent to windows movie maker for ubuntu jaunty? === JustStyle-Ubuntu is now known as NonS-Ubuntu [08:47] hey guys.. i need some help. i just booted from a live cd because i couldn't mount my luks-partition on my installed system.. but it won't work here either.. here it says that there's no partition available with that keyphrase === NonS-Ubuntu is now known as DDoS-Ubuntu === desti_T2 is now known as desti [08:47] plus luksDump says it is not a luks-partition === DDoS-Ubuntu is now known as HackingYou [08:48] spionspionspions, if you can configure gdm to auto-login for its first login, you can write a script to stop gdm, replace a configuration file so your session starts in openbox, and then restart gdm [08:48] i want to make a simple video where i add an mp3 track and a bunch of photos from my computer; i dont care about the order; it can be random. how can i do that on ubuntu jaunty? === HackingYou is now known as Hipop === Hipop is now known as hiphop [08:49] jason_ seems like a dirty hack, but should work if i find nothing else [08:49] thx === mathieui_ is now known as mathieui === hiphop is now known as OChoDingO === OChoDingO is now known as BingSin === BingSin is now known as copynfree === copynfree is now known as O_o [08:51] martin--: I don;t know squat about luks but it sounds like you've managed to corrupt the partition badly enough that it's unrecognisable. Unless it's a known issue with a workaround, or you have a backup prior to the corruption, I'd guess you're doomed... === O_o is now known as asdasd [08:51] 142 [08:52] Where is the session stored..., so i can delete it.. [08:52] and it should make a fresh one === asdasd is now known as BinG-Ubuntu [08:52] hm [08:53] spionspionspions: 30 minutes ago WeblionX said to check out openbox --replace.

I need it for 24/7 stock market monitoring. any one knows one ? [08:54] iMatter: ~/.gnome2/session? [08:55] iMatter: You can also try deleting the gnome config. [08:55] But that might cause problems. === mord_ is now known as mord === MBCMong is now known as NongE [08:56] Also could be somewhere in .config. Just saying what I've found on the forums. === NongE is now known as Nong [08:56] Looks like it might be ~/.config/gnome-session/* [08:56] WeblionX, problem is atm is every login is loading hella apps that i had a open a long time ago, causing it to be slow and laggy when login in even rebooted same issue... [08:56] martin--: so does that "hm" mean it was important enough to encrypt, but not important enough to backup? === Nong is now known as MinG [08:57] wathek: try #hardware [08:57] losher: yes.. something like that.

Make sure you run testdisk without the partition number, and then do search for partitions. You might be able to recover it. [09:12] i have a ferarri 4005 WLMi and it shows a blank screen about 1/3 of the times and xserver does not start.. some ideas? [09:12] the only thing to do is to restart and hope that it works...

But sometimes (approximative the same rate as the routine disk check) it vwould not show me the login screen. Then i reboot, press ESC, but nothing happpens.

[09:16] screamsayonara: ok but you can always try removing ndiswrapper.... but someone else may have more info on this.... [09:16] martin--: Does it have a way to write that to disk? You might have to do an indepth search. I'd try the second second partition if you can.

[12:01] abbazabba: I don't think you'd want to burn DVDs through wine [12:01] iceroot: yes [12:01] abbazabba: just use brasero, on plugin uncheck image checksum. work for me. [12:01] abbazabba: k3b is imo the best, also try brasero [12:01] richardcavell: that's what i'm thinking [12:01] Covert: because you're not listening. [12:01] Nevyn: i am [12:01] Covert: installing easy ubuntu.. is like creating a class in your project called java [12:02] nevyn: im doing stuff the same as how i did on windows because i dont understand linux [12:02] abbazabba: so what's wrong with the default burners?

[12:03] richardcavell: i'm dl'n a demo of vista and it's not burning completely [12:03] nevyn: Its ok its just ur telling me crap that makes no sence [12:03] Covert, tar.gz is a jar file and you will have to maintain it if and when you decide to upgrade cause ubuntu wont.

Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [12:05] Covert: you've got bits of stuff that the system knows about (like java and the c libraries and stuff) and this application that it doesn't know about. === yoni is now known as CrAzYoNi [12:05] rvn: u have a live cd? boot with it [12:05] i understand... [12:05] indus: yeah, i did the resizing from the boot cd [12:05] but what do i run to fix [12:05] !torrent [12:05] rvn: perhaps your uuid changed, compare values in /boot/grub/menu.lst with output of "sudo blkid /dev/sdaX" [12:05] Torrent clients: Transmission (GTK and terminal-based), Deluge-Torrent, Freeloader, BitStormLite, BitTornado-GUI (GTK), KTorrent (KDE), QTorrent (Qt), Azureus (Java), TorrentFlux (web-based), bittornado, rTorrent, cTorrent, bittorrent, aria2 (terminal-based) - FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html - See also !P2P [12:05] iceroot: i used brasero for the last two and it still got snagged on the initial screen.. i'm down to my last blank dvd [12:06] paste the output of sudo fdisk -l [12:06] abbazabba: error-message?

[12:07] abbazabba: you can try k3b but it will isntall some kde libs (sudo apt-get install k3b) imo the best program for burning [12:08] Covert: re-install easyeclipse.. yeah.. work out what broke upgrade till you get a working version if a java api or something changed or whatever. [12:09] iceroot: i don't mind some kde libraries (correct me if i'm wrong, but it just installs some ways of looking at things right?) and already snagged it off add/remove [12:09] for a pure java app it's reasonably unlikely you're going to hit serious problems [12:09] nevyn: That scares me. But its unlikely to happen right [12:09] Covert: unlikely not impossible. [12:10] Covert: for C apps the situation is much different [12:10] nevyn: Ok thanks. [12:10] for C apps changes in system apis over time WILL break your app if it's non-trivial [12:10] woah [12:10] ithat sucks [12:10] iceroot: i'm gonna try k3b and hope for the best [12:11] abbazabba: hope with you [12:11] abbazabba: try gnomebaker maybe [12:11] Covert: that's why we have package management to take care of it and update applications through abi changes and such [12:11] next question: [12:11] nevyn: can u request packages? [12:11] indus: iceroot said it's the best and i already started sadly so..... next question [12:11] you can MAKE packages [12:11] abbazabba: ook [12:11] there's probably a wishlist somewhere.

[12:12] indus: my bad =] [12:12] !newpackages > Covert [12:12] Covert, please see my private message [12:12] Covert: the approach for easy ubuntu.. woudl be to package the components and then make a package that requires eclipse and all the extra bits. [12:12] Covert: the other thing is... [12:13] packages are dicreet things. you wouldn't make a easyeclipse package.. that contained eclipse and all the plugins [12:13] can someone please help me set up postfix to be able to send emails (ONLY) .. from like outlook :) .. [12:13] damn [12:13] Covert: there's already a eclipse package.. [12:13] i know [12:13] JenniferB: #postfix [12:13] Covert: package the bits..

[12:14] JenniferB: look for a tutorial in the net, there a good ones for debian etch, so that you see what you need and what you can do [12:14] true [12:14] JenniferB: like imap, imaps, spamassasin, virus-scanner and so on [12:14] Covert: I strongly suspect that some of the stuff is already in the package management system [12:14] Covert, you are using easy ubuntu script? [12:14] bazhang: no I said wrong. [12:15] bazhang: I ment to type easyeclipse and did a fat fingers [12:15] Necyn: im confused [12:15] nevyn:* [12:15] Covert: ok... [12:15] problem is you think of easyeclipse as a thing that's different from eclipse. [12:15] I see easyeclipse as eclipse and a bunch of plugins [12:15] and some other tools and bits and bobs. [12:16] can you speak in #eclipse, #java or something like that? [12:16] i never used eclipse so i dont know if it is [12:16] AH HA! [12:16] im scared of it lol [12:16] i was reccomended easy eclipse and liked it so i never wanted to change [12:17] indus: uuids are the same, fdisk output is at pastebin.com/m41f0b45 [12:17] Covert: look.. you've installed easy eclipse now there's no way to uninstall it that's sane (another reason to use package management tools) this is mostly academic [12:18] if i understand correctly the boot flag isnt set for my ext3 partition [12:18] and that could be the problem [12:18] i dont want to install this is my java pc [12:18] Covert, install eclipse from the repos; easy eclipse is not supported here [12:18] Aye you should only really use package management tools for installing something [12:18] Much easier to get rid of it [12:18] rvn: i dont see any paste [12:18] !info eclipse | Covert [12:18] Covert: eclipse (source: eclipse): Extensible Tool Platform and Java IDE.

[12:22] indus: it used to have a swap partition as well, but i assimilated it in to the linux ext3 partition for more spasce [12:22] space* [12:22] rvn: /dev/sda5 looks like the linux partitiom [12:22] that is correct [12:22] it is within sda1 [12:22] Covert: the eclipse package installs the kitchen sink.. eclipse-jdk is the java bits only [12:22] is my problem the lack of a boot flag? [12:22] rvn: you mean swap is in that sda1? [12:23] I have an external harddrive I plugged into my usb but it doesn't auto-mount is there a way to check what /dev it is? or how can I mount it?

[13:19] i wish there was a vnc server that opens the options in x besides the default one that comes with ubuntu [13:19] jacky4: also the vncservers read various config files to set its defaults [13:19] sipior: there are an incredible amount of Rules including other rules I'm not sure where it sort of starts, but its likely that its /bin/sh [13:19] set: usage: set [--abefhkmnptuvxBCHP] [-o option] [arg ...] [13:19] ops [13:19] vncserver [-geometry x] [13:19] do i put the brackets in?

[14:15] i wanna know how to setup the multicast forwarding on ubuntu [14:15] floodbots: stop flooding! [14:16] johnseamus: where have you looked for documentation? [14:16] sipior: google.com [14:16] mode flood x.x === Caplain_ is now known as Caplain [14:16] johnseamus: and you found nothing? [14:16] sipior : found alot of sites but none of them works [14:17] @ johnseamus , elaborate the problem [14:17] johnseamus: now we're getting somewhere. what did you try, and how did it fail? [14:17] ok ill explain [14:17] basically ubuntu has 2 ethernet interfaces isnt it [14:17] yeh, then... [14:17] Which pure open source linux distro would be the best to learn for the RHCE exam? [14:18] ive gt a server setup broadcasting a stream on a multicast address [14:18] bloupotlood: centos? :P [14:18] bloupotlood: For RHCE, RH? [14:18] bloupotlood: doesn't the "RH" stand for Red Hat? [14:18] ikanobori: lol [14:18] n the ubuntu just sits in between the server n my client n acts as a router [14:18] sipior: i know i know! but its expensive! [14:18] @ bloupotlood , it all depends on what are u learning for,,,if its for RHCE, go for CentOS, which is preLaunch version of RedHat [14:18] im restarting my pc [14:18] !offtopic | bloupotlood [14:18] so the question now is , my packets frm the server cant get through the router (ubuntu) to my server since the multicast forwarding is not enabled [14:18] will try to see now [14:18] bloupotlood: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [14:19] I got into ubuntu, love it to bits, now want to make a move to linux professionally, think the rhce exam would be a good move. [14:19] is this clear enough? [14:19] Pici: sorry about that mate. [14:19] kickAss: thanks. [14:19] Thanks everyone for the quick advise, sorry about the off topic. [14:19] johnseamus: have you set anything in /proc/sys/net? === bloupotlood is now known as bluepencil [14:19] @ bloupotlood , go for it....that will definitely give an extra edge over others [in ur CV] [14:20] bloupotlood: search for 'Red Hat Alternatives'. And stop OT [14:20] soapbox: you're welcome [14:20] yes im guessing the file that i nid to change is /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/mc_forwarding [14:20] but whenever i try to write to the file it will giv me an access denied error msg [14:20] u r welcome [14:21] permission problem , make sure u have write access to that, right?

[14:22] kickass : im aware of permission bt when i logged in as root i cant change it as well [14:22] its like the file which u cant change no matter what privilege u got [14:22] paste.ubuntu.com/236592 [14:22] http://paste.ubuntu.com/236592 [14:23] @ johnseamus , is it? i've never come accrosss such a scenario when even a root can't change the permision. okey must be uid/gid issue? [14:23] johnseamus, I just arrived but did you actually log off as user and then log in as root with root password? [14:23] coz : yes i did [14:23] johnseamus: could it be on a partition mounted as read-only? [14:23] sticky bit issue,,, [14:24] change it and u r done! [14:24] kickass : im new to linux so im not sure whats iud/gid [14:24] qwyeth : im not sure since im new to linux [14:24] johnseamus: it's id of user and group respectively [14:24] u guys could read up this site its what im experiencing now http://www.trilug.org/pipermail/trilug/Week-of-Mon-20040419/025606.html [14:25] janisozaur : could u explain more on id of user n group? sry since im new to this [14:25] http://paste.ubuntu.com/236592 anyone???

I'm in the middle of transferring years of windows dependencies over to ubuntu. [14:28] good morning [14:28] i think he missed out a step or two [14:28] ;) [14:28] johnseamus: his name and address appear at the end of the article. [14:28] @ xguru , welcome to the world of open source.... [14:28] xguru: Once you get past the relative lack of games there's very little to dislike about Ubuntu [14:29] Hi, how to do aliases with sendmail? I just need to forward 2-3 address [14:29] i'm ok with that, i never played many games :) [14:29] thanks, i used linux years ago and it had gaps that i couldn't cross, and now ubuntu puts it all together. Only thing that has been a challenge is ushare with xbox360 :) [14:29] sipior : im trying to get in touch wif him now..meanwhile any other ppl here wif experience wif multicast forwarding? [14:29] @ xguru , its the same for any flavor of linux.....u'll like almost all of them,,,,i've using lots of flavors for quite some time [14:29] xguru: I used to...but the more that they started piling on DRM and copy protection for games that I actually bought, causing them not to work, the less I cared about wWindows :P [14:30] MrKorrupt: try -vo ffmpeg [14:30] then filename [14:30] I'm having a problem with Ubuntu on some on my servers. They have 2 network cards and apt-get update is doesn't work unless I bring one of them down. ANy ideas? [14:30] all the sites that pop up from google just reads the same problem im having [14:30] svanheulen : set 1 of ur ethernet cards wif a default gateway [14:30] make sure only one is active and is the one being detected by ubuntu @ svanheulen [14:31] or dhcp n disable the other [14:31] johnseamus: they both have a gateway set, should i only set it on one of them? [14:31] rightly said, i guess that solves the problem , right @ svanheulen [14:31] Is it possible to update ubuntu 8.04 to 9.04 without having to re-install everything? [14:31] @ svanheulen , yes [14:31] @ bluepencil ,,yeh [14:31] bluepencil: no [14:31] @ bluepencil , do an distro upgrade [14:32] kickAss: sweet, just pop 9.04 in? [14:32] bluepencil: first to 8.10 then to 9.04 [14:32] bluepencil, not a one step one, need to pass intermediate version [14:32] kickAss: why can't I have both network cards up? I use them both for virtual machines [14:32] indus: the user's notebook is 8.04 atm [14:32] svanheulen : yes set on just 1 of them n leave the other blank [14:32] ping eights [14:32] bluepencil: are you familiar with upgrading through the internet? [14:33] you can't skip a release, thats what we mean....@ bluepencil [14:33] hello, how can terminal in the right click menu? [14:33] johnseamus: i'll try that, thanks [14:33] indus: mmm...dont think we would have the bandwidth for something like that... < south africa [14:33] for a ubuntu network server wiht mixed linux and window, what is the best file system to use ? [14:33] hello, how can i add terminal in the right click menu? [14:33] @ emanux ,,u r not clear [14:33] kickAss: aah ok [14:33] svanheulen : on 2nd thought i dont think a default gateway will work, just set 1 interface to use dhcp n disable the other [14:33] bluepencil: then a reinstall will be needed, have the 9.04 cds? [14:33] 8.04 -> 8.10 -> 9.04 ... @ bluepencil [14:33] !intel | MrKorrupt [14:33] MrKorrupt: Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. [14:33] indus: yar [14:33] hello, how can i add terminal in the right click menu? so that when i right click on folder i can open terminal client there [14:34] !upgrade | bluepencil [14:34] bluepencil: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [14:34] anybody has experience with how to enable multicast forwarding? [14:34] kickAss: aah me understand [14:34] emanux: install nautilus-open-terminal [14:34] I'm trying to install bluez-firmware-1.2.tar.gz, can anyone help? [14:34] fine , thanks @ bluepencil [14:34] @ donnybrasco ,,,what is the prob u r facing during installtion [14:34] anybody has experience with multicast forwarding or knows how to use mrouted? [14:35] can someone name me a audio equalizer?(for the whole system) === root is now known as Guest5417 [14:35] kickAss: I'm not sure how to use tar.gz - the installation file was pretty confusing to me (sorry I'm fairly new) [14:35] johnseamus: it's a server, i don't want the address set dhcp. both interfaces are setup correctly. the only problem is that things going out the default gateway only work right if i bring down one of the interfaces. === Guest5417 is now known as tightvnc [14:35] donnybrasco: just right click on file and extract or just double click [14:36] donnybrasco: unpack the tar with 'tar zxf file.tar.gz' [14:36] hey guys i got vnc server working fine but i have one problem...as soon as i vnc into the machine it logs into root for some reason...i want it to go to my user account...what do i do [14:36] double click i say [14:36] svanheulen : so u wanna have 2 interfaces running at the same time while u can access ur server? [14:36] anybody has knowledge on mrouted here? [14:36] and once I have unpacked it what do I do? [14:36] any advantage to putting music files on an ntfs partitoin to be served to a network with a ubutnut server? [14:36] can someone name me a audio equalizer?(for the whole system) [14:37] johnseamus: yes. i have vmware server running and i have virtual machines bridged to both interfaces [14:37] VCoolio: just install nautilus-open-terminal [14:37] donnybrasco: there is a file called INSTALL, read that [14:37] then whats next [14:37] bye guys...c ya later , have a good day [14:37] no terminal menu appeared in the right click menu [14:37] donnybrasco: it will tell you what dependancies you need, make sure they are installed [14:38] emanux: restart nautilus and rightclick in any folder; for your desktop to work maybe logout and back in again [14:38] svanheulen : so ur ubuntu is acting as a router in between? [14:38] okie [14:38] http://paste.pocoo.org/show/131705/ <-- Why is this not allowed? [14:39] Is anyone also experiencing severe slowness of thunderbird lately? [14:39] Certain messages (spam?) will lead to 100% cpu usage [14:39] johnseamus: no, nevermind, forget what i was saying. Is there some reason I should not be able to have 2 network interfaces up at the same time? [14:39] \1 [14:40] VCoolio: that's was awesome [14:40] hay can someone help me change tightvnc server to log into my username instead of root? [14:40] svanheulen : nope , having 2 interfaces up at the same time is fine [14:40] emanux: you can also set it so right click on desktop and open terminal opens it in home instead of desktop if you want [14:40] anybody has experience wif mrouted or XORP? [14:40] johnseamus: k, thanks [14:40] svanheulen: you just _have_to_ tell your linux which interface is the default one, which is connected to the world [14:41] svanheulen : ur welcome [14:41] ohir: how do i do that? [14:41] wow how i can set that? [14:41] emanux: in configuration editor navigate to apps > nautilus-open-terminal [14:41] svanheulen: by setting default route through this interface [14:41] Does anyone know a good program to rip DVD's? I want to put movies on my Ipod [14:41] can someone name me a audio equalizer?(for the whole system) [14:42] ilmenite: maybe pulse has one? [14:42] svanheulen: on console type 'man interfaces' and read carefully. [14:42] ohir: so i can only have the gateway option set on one of my interfaces? [14:42] danbhfive, package name? [14:42] svanheulen: also get some free O'Reilly ebooks about TCP/IP networking and start learn [14:42] ilmenite: www search for perfect pulseaudio setup [14:42] anyone knows how to use XORP here? [14:43] svanheulen: for default route, yes. Only one. [14:43] ohir: thanks [14:43] svanheulen: unless you start building multinetwork routers, its enough to know 'one default gateway' rule [14:44] can some1 explain ssh [14:44] aaronvarghese: man ssh [14:44] ok [14:44] hey [14:45] is there anything that i can use to handle multiple monitors with ubuntu? [14:45] aaronvarghese: man sshd, man sshd_config too [14:45] bit so dumb here, where is configuration editor :) [14:46] millertimek1a2m3: have you tried xrandr? [14:46] ok [14:46] emanux: applications > system tools [14:46] danbhfive: is that in the add/remove or the SPM? [14:46] emanux: or alt+f2 and start typing gconf, it will show up [14:47] !xrandr | millertimek1a2m3 [14:47] millertimek1a2m3: XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 [14:47] danbhfive: thanks [14:48] gconf: command not found [14:48] How do i install packages from karmic into jaunty ? [14:48] Problem: Im running Enemy territories quake wars on ubuntu, the game is in windowed mode and running with opengl [14:48] my mouse focus gets stuck in the window in question, is there any way from the OS's viewpoint how i can force the mouse out of the window? [14:48] Author: why? [14:49] emanux: gconf-editor [14:49] Author: Going backwards isn't usually possible with binary packages. [14:49] VCoolio:great [14:49] danbhfive: what about this-https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo [14:49] danbhfive: should i follow that? [14:50] xrandr succeeds that millertimek1a2m3 [14:50] bazhang: thanks [14:50] VCoolio: thanks, i can further customize here [14:50] Current vlc 0.9.9a from jaunty (launchpad Bug #304265) dialog boxes are too big for my netbook and they've been fixed in the new vlc (1.0.0~rc2-1ubuntu1) karmic [14:51] dajhorn: I want to go forward, not backwards [14:51] what do i need to connect to a windows computer from this ubuntu [14:51] Author: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html [14:51] aaronvarghese, like a remote desktop? [14:52] vinly, yes [14:52] i used realvnc for windows and the one that comes with ubuntu... forget what it is called. they work together as the way they communicate is standard === KingOfDos|lap is now known as KingOfDos [14:52] aaronvarghese: There should be a remote desktop client included with the installation [14:53] set one party to listen to clients and you can connect there with the other machine [14:53] danbhfive: That's too easy. I assume I want to add the repository for karmic into my ubuntu jaunty so I can install VLC from there ? [14:53] there iz [14:53] is [14:53] in ubuntu [14:53] Author: Installing karmic packages on Jaunty will almost certainly need a recompile. Installing Jaunty packages on Karmic just needs an apt line. [14:53] Just enable remote logins on te windows machine and go right on in [14:53] Author: er, no, you want to follow those directions [14:53] in windows there is what do i need to connect to a windows computer from this ubuntuone but i dont know what protocol [14:53] Aaronvarghese: Yes, it's under Applications in the Internet tools section [14:53] i knoe [14:53] aaronvarghese: RDP? [14:53] knoe [14:53] ok [14:53] do use tsc [14:53] you can install a vnc server in windows aaronvarghese [14:53] Hi. I've just bought an used Dell monitor and plugged it to my PC. It works fine, but instead of its native 1280x1024 gnome-display-properties manager shows something strange, like 1152x864 or 1360x768. It seems that everyone has problems with Dell monitors. I succeeded making it use 1280x1024 by typing xrandr --newmode "1280x1024_60.00" 109.00 1280 1368 1496 1712 1024 1027 1034 1063 -hsync +vsync; xrandr --addmode VGA "1280x1024_60.00"; xrandr --o [14:53] utput VGA --mode "1280x1024_60.00". But system forgets this mode after reboot. How to make it remember it, and remove those strange modes? [14:53] Author: there is also a jaunty repo for vlc 1.0: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/c-korn/vlc/ubuntu jaunty main [14:53] Author: you just add the ppa to your repositories [14:54] hi everybody [14:54] guys how to compile a source code? [14:54] Gluck: By putting it in xorg.conf. [14:54] johnseamus: ./configure && make install [14:54] Mostly. [14:54] Hi, how do I add a "rule" in ubuntu to auto-run "module-assistant auto-install tp-smapi" when the kernel is upgraded? [14:54] !compile > johnseamus [14:54] johnseamus, please see my private message [14:54] Doesn't work, at least in Ubuntu. [14:54] Hi there - I'm using Xinerama with four screens, and I found that my mouse pointer is often "misplaced" when I switch screens. i.e. the graphical mouse pointer is not in the same place as where I click (or hit Ctrl). Anyone had this problem before? [14:54] Errr, make && make install [14:54] dajhorn: Ohh.. true.. this packages are pre-compiled.. I have gentoo background and I'm new to ubuntu.. Thanks for the help [14:54] will it work even when the windows computer is switched off [14:54] Gluck: Yes, it should. [14:54] ikanobori, Doesn't work, at least in Ubuntu. [14:54] VCoolio: nice find !! thanks [14:55] what newsgroup should I write to, do get help with modifying an usb-to-serial converter driver? [14:55] johnseamus: pretty much what ikanobori said, after you decompress the tarball read the INSTALL file [14:55] aaronvarghese: No, offcourse not. [14:55] aaronvarghese, how could it possibly work with the computer powered off? [14:55] hey how do i view hidden files in my home folder...they are hidden by defualt...i think there is a keyboard command [14:55] thanks for all the replies [14:55] pzn: Install the dkms package. [14:55] umm is there a protol that does that [14:55] ikanobory, yes, it should, but doesn't. It was the first thing I tried. [14:55] jacky4: ctrl+h [14:55] vcoolio: thanks [14:55] jacky4: ls -la will do it from the command line [14:55] jacky4: that also works in open file dialogs [14:55] pzn: And check that the kernel compiles manually through `sudo m-a`. [14:56] ikanobory, It seems that gnome-display-properties somehow override xorg.conf settings. [14:56] Gluck: I’m not too familiar with that. Wait for someone to come around who knows. [14:56] aaronvarghese: Unless you have some kind of wake-on-lan setup you're not going to be able to connect to a powered-down PC over the Internet [14:56] As a tip, you can press the first few letters of a nickname and then hit [tab] to autocomplete on most clients. [14:56] ok [14:56] Does anyone have any experience with OpenGL games running in windowed mode? As long as my game is running i can't seem to get my mouse out of the game window. Is there a way to force the mouse out of the process? [14:57] ikanobory, why do you answer then. Thanks for your participation anyway. [14:57] dajhorn: thanks, that solved my needs! [14:57] I'm trying to install bluez-firmware. I downloaded the package and extracted the tar but I'm having problems installing it [14:57] Viliny: Tried alt-tab to switch to a different window? [14:57] pzn: Np. [14:57] ixbal, all the obvious things are tried already. [14:57] anyone here use xinerama? mouse pointer showing up in the wrong place? [14:57] hello [14:58] whats up [14:58] hey this xrandr thing is telling me to remove some stuff... i don't want to do anything to get my box messed up... [14:58] how can i apply permissions to a folder so copying files to that folder and new folders wont cause issues? dont mkdir mydir, then chmod 777 -R mydir and im ftping files across, but if theres directories within directories, its moaning about permissions [14:58] !pxe [14:58] Sorry, I don't know anything about pxe [14:58] any new version [14:58] ie: mkdir /var/www/support/styles: failure [14:58] pawan, version of what === happyaron_ is now known as happyaron [14:58] ubuntu [14:58] new release [14:58] pawan, #ubuntu+1 [14:58] !9.10 [14:58] Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [14:59] ok [14:59] pawan: 9.04 is the new release [14:59] Hi. I've just bought an used Dell monitor and plugged it to my PC. It works fine, but instead of its native 1280x1024 gnome-display-properties manager shows something strange, like 1152x864 or 1360x768. It seems that everyone has problems with Dell monitors. I tried to save those settings in xorg.conf, but to no avail. It seems that gnome-display-properties somehow override xorg.conf settings.I succeeded making it use 1280x1024 by typing xrandr --newm [14:59] ode "1280x1024_60.00" 109.00 1280 1368 1496 1712 1024 1027 1034 1063 -hsync +vsync; xrandr --addmode VGA "1280x1024_60.00"; xrandr --output VGA --mode "1280x1024_60.00". But system forgets this mode after reboot. How to make it remember it, and remove those strange modes? [14:59] An easier question then. :) How do I edit the icons in a desktop theme? [14:59] ok gereat [14:59] what version number is Jaunty Jackalope? [14:59] great [14:59] should i just do everything this xrandr thing tells me to, from the top to the bottom? [14:59] Karmic will break :P I'm pretty sure anyone who's used a .10 release of ubuntu could have predicted that [14:59] Viliny: 9.04 [14:59] Gluck, add a modeline in xorg.conf and edit modes in screen section [14:59] Viliny, 9.04 [14:59] ixbal, yep [14:59] 8.10 had so many bugs in it i wund up reporting five myself [14:59] that it is, thank you Pici and bazhang [15:00] ixbal: er... the .10 just means its being released in October. [15:00] ixbal: If you want rock solid stability don't use ubuntu. That plain and simple. It is the testing branch of debian at the core. [15:00] Pici: Yes, I realize that :> Unfortunately Ubuntu releases are kind of like Star Trek movies, every second one blows but every odd one is amazing [15:00] edbian: now thats not correct information [15:00] my system is stable [15:00] ixbal: HA ha ha [15:01] edbian: we have LTS releases for that [15:01] indus: The LTS releases are nice. [15:01] Well, getting little luck in ideas for my gaming related problem here. Moving on -> Is there any easy way to heavily alter the looks of ubuntu gnome desktop? i remember dabbling with it a while back but finding and installing new themes didn't seem that simple [15:01] trashbarg, to no avail, i tried. A glue is that I can temporary convince xrandr to use a native resolution. Now, how to convince it remember it? [15:01] can anyone give me a little info on how to do this xrandr thing? [15:01] Viliny: Try gnome-look.org. [15:02] a good example about the 8.04 LTS is support for the ATI driver for X200 chipsets/its missing in 9.04 [15:02] Viliny: It should be, a lot of themes are included in synaptic, if you don't like those go to gnome-look.org and follow the individual instructions [15:02] I'll be needing answers regarding wifi drivers for the Ralink rt2860 and I'll be needing them now. [15:02] qwyeth, thank you. I remember visiting this site then as well [15:02] i believe it will reappear in the 9.10 release again though [15:02] the installation readme says to run ./configure then make, but when I try to run make I get the following error 'make: Nothing to be done for `all'.' [15:02] Viliny: There are a couple themes in the repos. If you download a theme from the internet I find the easiest way to install it is to simply drag the .tar.gz folder (unextracted) into the "appearances" dialog box [15:02] how do i get flash to work on x64, jaunty? [15:02] you mean file? [15:03] Viliny: Are you talking to me? [15:03] ubuntumania: use the 64 bit version of flash [15:03] yeah nevermind sorry edbian [15:03] how do i get that? [15:03] thanks, ill whip out my laptop and have a go now [15:03] I'll be needing answers regarding wifi drivers for the Ralink rt2860 and I'll be needing them now. [15:03] Gluck, You can just add your modeline to the monitor section [15:03] dajhorn: how do I "schedule" for auto-install next kernel upgrade? I tried "m-a" menus, but couln't handle in there. if i remove newer kernel and add it again, it is only installing kqemu module, not tp-smapi again. [15:03] donnybrasco: can you paste the entire error? [15:04] donnybrasco: use !paste [15:04] BFevola: You'll be needing an attitude change too if you expect any help [15:04] donnybrasco: !paste [15:04] ubuntumania: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.22.87.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz [15:04] Gluck, after that you can chose 1280x1024_60 in the screen/display section [15:04] millertimek1a2m3: what have you tried? have you tried just plugging it in, and running xrandr --auto? [15:05] danbhfive: i haven't even done anything yet. [15:05] pzn: In theory, if m-a can install the module to the current module from the source package, then it will be automagically compiled and installed when the system boots into a new kernel. [15:05] ixbal I did not come here to be lectured on manners. I will be requiring the aforementioned information forthwith! [15:05] ubuntumania: in your hidden folder under home, create a folder called plugins in mozilla directory [15:05] !paste donald@donald-laptop:~/Desktop/bluez-firmware-1.2$ make [15:05] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [15:05] make: Nothing to be done for `all'. [15:05] BFevola, please be patient; dont repeat so often [15:05] dajhorn: ok, got the point... I must reboot. [15:05] ubuntumania: place the libflashplayer.so in that plugins folder [15:05] pzn: The module system doesn't compile modules when you install a new kernel. The Ubuntu module system compiles modules when you reboot into a new kernel for the first time. [15:05] bazhang thank you for that constructive criticism. What is the interval at which I should repost a question if it is not answered? [15:06] donnybrasco: is that all it says? [15:06] moncky: how do you use !paste [15:06] !paste > donnybrasco [15:06] donnybrasco, please see my private message === bekir is now known as WAVIN [15:06] trashbarg, thank you for your advice. I tried. It doesn't work. Gnome-display-properties seem to not give a shit about xorg.conf: It doesn't see my modes and use modes that are not in xorg.conf. [15:06] <[eXception]> hi, how do I allow short passwords? [15:06] i have a problem shown here http://pastebot.ltsp.org/460 [15:06] How can I enable/start VNC over ssh? I need to VNC into a computer, and I only have ssh access. [15:06] BFevola, would be nice if you could many more details about your situation [15:06] the gnome theme last like a second and then set to default [15:07] hey guys im lost now how to compile a program which i just downloaded? [15:07] moncky: thanks - hold on, I'll paste more [15:07] someone know how I can make my gtk scales update faster? [15:07] do i nid to type anythin in terminal? [15:07] johnseamus: read the readme [15:07] and ive lost the keyboard layout, and the keyboard applet crashes [15:07] BFevola: an hour or more [15:07] where can i find a troubleshooting guide for vpn connections for jaunty? [15:07] Gluck, I had a similar problem before using the nv driver. It seems it doesnt care about modelines. The vesa driver does, so if its enough for you ... [15:07] JonathanD, usually ./configure then make [15:07] indus : cant open the readme [15:07] johnseamus: why not? [15:07] indus : idk i double cliked on it n nothin happen [15:07] johnseamus, usually ./configure then make but README tells you more [15:07] anyone know if there is any kind of rc file that runs when the terminal is opened? like .gnome-terminalrc for example? [15:08] johnseamus: what is the extension of that file [15:08] Liquidity_C: .bashrc [15:08] kaini : u mean i type ./configure in terminal? [15:08] BFevola, mainly because if you don't get any answers it's most likely because nobody active at that moment knows the answer. If you wait a bit the people might have changed and you have better luck in getting an answe. My 2 cents [15:08] indus : its a folder n has many files inside [15:08] where's the plugins folder? [15:08] or does anyone know how i can get an error output when i do a pptp connection using the gui? [15:08] johnseamus, open terminal, go to the folder and type .configure and then make install [15:08] all i get is connection failed [15:08] Viliny thank you. English is not my native language and I have never been present upon this IRC network before. [15:08] VCoolio, I know that but I want the file to run 'screen -D -R' and creating a new screen executes .bashrc [15:08] johnseamus, yes after you typed cd [path to the folder] [15:08] ubuntumania: create it. mkdir .mozilla/plugins [15:08] moncky: http://paste.ubuntu.com/236638/ [15:08] no responce on why it failed [15:09] hi :) [15:09] Is there any way in Evolution for me to get all the email addresses from my past emails, and add them to my address book? [15:09] !pastebot [15:09] Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebot [15:09] johnseamus: cd into that folder then run configure [15:09] kaini : so i nid to specify the path 1st?

[15:09] indus : ok ill try it now [15:09] BFevola, your English is interesting though :) [15:09] johnseamus: What are you trying to compile? [15:09] johnseamus: always read the readme before you compile anything, it will have instructions on setting path, other options when compiling [15:10] Viliny I use a combination of a translator I have written myself and rapid Googling of words I have not included in my program. [15:10] donnybrasco: looks ok, make install should now install it [15:10] ubuntumania: so u done? [15:10] what keyword would you suggest in finding new themes in my synaptics manager? (gnome themes) [15:10] pici : xorp from www.xorp.org [15:10] help please, ive lost the keyboard layout, the gnome theme and the keyboard applet crashes, and gnome-settings-daemon crashes with a message that dont know how to fix [15:10] indus : i cant open the readme file, their guide on the website i cant understand too [15:10] Viliny: thats always a problem .try ubuntu-community-themes [15:10] BFevola: How on earth did you write a program to translate into a language you don't speak? [15:10] BFevola, could have fooled me to be honest. [15:10] yeah i just created the folder now im gonna extract the file there [15:10] Gluck, if the xrandr solution works for you, you may want to add the command to your Xsession [15:10] johnseamus: did you cd into that folder [15:10] Viliny: "GTK+ theme" [15:10] johnseamus: xorp appears to be in the package repositories, did you try to install that first? === nameless` is now known as wluce0` [15:11] At your earliest convienience would you consider informing me if the drivers for the Ralink rt2860 are fully compliant with usage of the aircrack-ng program.

[15:13] Viliny: gnome uses the "GTK+" tool set for it's apps.

I've set it up so it appears on the right, embedded on the desktop, and added an entry so it would autostart when I login, which works until the gnome panels and desktop icons are loaded, then it disappears. the system monitor says it's still running, but I can't see it [15:14] bazhang: yes... [15:14] please i want to know is there any antivirus against windows viruses in ubuntu? [15:14] mehrsteckdose: It will probably work. Just don't delete the Jaunty kernel.

[15:15] respecting: ClamAV [15:15] edbian or they haven't had to program extensively with either [15:15] ahhhhhh :) [15:15] :) - so... what about all these other... things that i have, their names escape me at the moment but it seems like theres a lot of different names floating out there when it comes to programs that alter my ubuntu visually. Compiz and so forth, i have little clue what works at which layer and which is actually an alternative to another and so forth [15:15] TheStarLion: how did you set the own_window_type [15:15] okay [15:15] BFevola: in meantime you can search ubuntu forums and other places with your keywords and read how other people get it to work. Google returns 1300 pages for 'ralink rt2860 aircrack-ng ubuntu'. [15:15] mehrsteckdose: You probably don't need to recompile. Try the binary package first. [15:15] mikka: clam-av is the best one I know of. I am not aware of a GUI one but I'm sure one exists. After all there are 20,000 packages in the repos :) [15:15] respecting what does that mean? [15:15] moncky: did you see that second paste? [15:16] respecting: the best is avast antivirus [15:16] Viliny: Metacity and Compiz do the same job. They are window managers. [15:16] !ccsm | Viliny [15:16] Viliny: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'.

Just put your command in some autostart script and be happy it works ;) [15:16] mehrsteckdose: Do a manual double-click install from the DEB file. And if it works, then you can figure out how to add the necessary Hardy apt line to your Jaunty system. [15:16] Viliny: This website outlines much of what you're asking about :) http://xwinman.org/ [15:16] VCoolio: That would work if the old laptop it's installed on could properly support compiz without dieing [15:16] edbian, so how does the structure in it's entirety look like? which works under what? [15:16] i am having this problem with bitlbee: when I try to connect to localhost, i get an error saying that the connection was refused [15:17] thank you edbian [15:17] Gluck, IMO configuring xorg is a lot of trial and error^^ [15:17] can anyone help me configure dual monitors? [15:17] TheStarLion: hm, then set window type to normal and try; wouldn't know else [15:17] edbian, so in idiot-speak: OS > Desktop > Window manager? [15:18] respecting, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Security#Anti-Virus, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Linuxvirus. [15:18] Viliny: X at the bottom. This gives basic graphics. On top of that you need a window manager (compiz, metacity, Awesome, etc etc, there are many of these), then on top of that you can optionally have a complete "desktop environment" like gnome or KDE or XFCE [15:18] indus flash still doesnt work in firefox [15:18] trashbarg, hell yes. [15:18] ubuntumania: which firefox? 3.5? [15:18] ubuntumania: are you using ubuntu 64 bit? [15:18] 3.0.12 [15:18] so gnome and say... metacity work at the same level? [15:19] can anyone help me with this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/236643/ [15:19] how would it all look without an "complete desktop environment" ? [15:19] Recently installed 9.04, and I'm having a difficult time with HD video playback using Mplayer. suggestions? [15:19] Viliny: metacity is a window manager, gnome is a desktop environment. Technically gnome would be on top of metacity but I don't think metacity can run alone like most other window managers [15:19] Viliny you probably wouldn't like it. But you could go the route of using something like fluxbox in lieu of gnome or KDE [15:19] so in short, some of the window managers are able to run on their own? [15:19] how can I get wifi with icewm? I tried wifi-radar, but i can't seem to connect properly [15:19] Viliny fluxbox is very light weight [15:20] Viliny: Most of them can run on their own. [15:20] ubuntumania: what folders do u see inside the hidden mozilla folder [15:20] metacity != a window manager [15:20] im not sure but i do know that my processor is 64 bit [15:20] ubuntumania: in terminal uname -a [15:20] okay i see, but how does it then work to first have gnome and then go about choosing a window manager on top of that? sounds like something that would conflict? [15:20] !!!!!!!!!!!! [15:20] clamav detect virus and not remove them [15:21] Viliny no, you just choose a window manager [15:21] Do you call that an antivirus? [15:21] i686 [15:21] respecting: u tried avast? [15:21] Viliny gnome IS a window manager [15:21] oh my darling kaspersky i need u now [15:21] BFevola, this is not true. [15:21] Hi guys. I'm having some trouble with my video card suddenly [15:21] avast.I have ubuntu and not windows [15:21] trashbarg ok, metacity IS a window manager. But I do not like it [15:21] avast is available for ubuntu my dear [15:21] BFevola, gnome is a desktop environment and metacity is its window manager [15:22] clamav is not an antivirus what can i do with it if it only detect viruses [15:22] dajhorn: Silly question -- where would be the best place to find that old kernel .deb and the headers .deb? [15:22] so gnome comes with metacity as default? [15:22] Viliny. yes [15:22] trashbarg yes. I was trying to impart to Viliny that he only need to install gnome [15:22] respecting: cant you read? i said download avast antivirus for linux then try [15:22] trashbarg not metacity as well [15:22] mine has compiz as well, is that instead of metacity? [15:22] or is that yet another addition to the pyramid? [15:22] trashbarg in fact, and I know you would agree, he should install fluxbox immediately [15:22] Can I get some advice on why my display quality is suddenly so poor? [15:23] Viliny: no that's why you run it with "compiz --replace", you toggle window manager [15:23] im pretty sure my ubuntu came with gnome and compiz out of the package [15:23] donnyw you pulled out the 15 pin plug? [15:23] BFevoly, this is not the point. You are telling him gnome is a window manager which is wrong. [15:23] BFevola what's that? [15:23] Viliny, You are right [15:23] donnybrasco: tried running make with sudo? [15:24] trashbarg and you sir are confusing him [15:24] donnybrasco: even though generally make is run without it [15:24] !offtopic [15:24] only a fool or a windows exile would ever consider using gnome or KDE [15:24] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [15:24] avast antivirus for linux can scan exe files or not? [15:24] that my problem [15:24] so in short trashbarg, i would need to replace compiz with metacity if i wanted to switch to that [15:24] Viliny, yes [15:24] Curious question.. If I have just installed pulseaudio and I can see the audio output on the volume meter on padevchooser, but still no sound did i do something wrong? [15:25] respecting: yes its for installation on linux, but it scans for windows viruses [15:25] whoa whats with the elitest attitude today? [15:25] Viliny, Gnome is a collection of tools (like the control panel), a window manager (metacity) and some other applications(like the gnome panel) [15:25] BFevola: What's the 15 pin plug? [15:25] theregoesmyeye turn up the volume. Next! [15:25] * xguru is away: Gone. [15:25] donnyw the one that connects your monitor to your box [15:25] !fluxbox [15:25] fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox [15:25] BFevola: Not exactly [15:25] trashbarg in short gnome is a desktop environment [15:25] BFevola, i keep an open mind when it comes to different OS'es, i dislike both windows and mac but i don't bash them or act like an elitist either. Most of my experience with software comes from the windows side and im only recently taking up linux by the means of ubuntu and quite frankly loving it. [15:26] @bfevola the volume is up and the speakers work fine in windows. thanks for the abrupt comment though.

[15:26] bazhang, im done. sorry [15:26] Viliny there is nothing wrong with either operating system you have mentioned. In fact, Mac OSX on Intel hardware is official UNIX and a very good OS.

Flip software is XP & MAC only. What is recommended for HD editing in Ubuntu? [15:28] theregoesmyeye then we shall investigate further. [15:28] BFevola, ill stick to the fixing what is broken. Gnome will suffice as it is now. Thanks for taking the interest to try and introduce new things but im fine for now. [15:28] what do you need to do remote desktop to another linux [15:28] Viliny then let it be on your own head [15:28] is there an install guide anywhere for setting up an ubuntu box as a gateway... (I'm aware there'll be lots of different bits of software i need for different things...!!??!) [15:28] theregoesmyeye what sound card do you have? [15:28] I don't see how the learning curve for fluxbox is any different, considering newer versions of fluxbox are easy to use and fluxbox can be used in conjunction with gnome [15:29] aaronvarghese, ssh(1) [15:29] what is the difference between 32 and 64 bit versions of ubuntu [15:29] by gateway - sitting between users and a router to the internet [15:29] NetEcho you would admit the setup isn't as intuitive to Windows users as gnome of KDE though? [15:29] how about vnc [15:29] Soundmax picked up as AC'97 by ubuntu [15:29] NetEcho and using gnome in conjunction with fluxbox defeats the purpose [15:29] can someone help me set up two monitors? [15:29] BFevola nope considering fluxbox was my defacto Windows manager but metacity is fine as well [15:29] pratik_narain, 64 can use more than 4GB of memory if you got a 64bit processor [15:30] *window [15:30] when i execute gnome-settings-daemon, i get ** (gnome-settings-daemon:22323): WARNING **: Unable to start xrandr manager: unhandled X error while getting the range of screen sizes not present.

Your experience may be different [15:31] indus: i was directed to this page on xrandr. mine is a intel chipset 965 http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Xorg_RandR_1.2#Overview [15:31] BFevola, fluxbox is good, i use openbox [15:31] theregoesmyeye ok, and you are getting indications that the output is indeed happening? [15:31] aniki, you can easily set higher resolutions if you adjust your monitor settings in xorg.conf === ogra__ is now known as ogra [15:31] thiebaude thank you for that support! I like openbox too :) [15:31] hi ogra [15:31] BFevola, np [15:32] would you please help me? [15:32] i'm going to upgrade my home server - gateway. it's quite old compaq small form factor. i want to upgrade disk from 20 to 250GB, though bios reports the latter as 6-and-something GB. ubuntu 8.10 running from the former lists (using fdisk -l) the bigger drive as 250GB. what do you guys think is the likeliness of running into trouble? [15:32] bfevola: i can see signal levels moving up as i start a sound yes.. also are you sure you tried out ICEwm i've had a lot better experiences with that compared to flux [15:32] now back to making breakfeast [15:32] when i execute gnome-settings-daemon, i get ** (gnome-settings-daemon:22323): WARNING **: Unable to start xrandr manager: unhandled X error while getting the range of screen sizes not present. [15:32] hmm [15:32] trashbarg: my problem is, some part of the screen is missing (cut off) - the panels. I don't know whether its a problem of "too high a resolution" or too low. plus, i've connected it to the tv using HDMI - which I guess complicates stuff further. [15:32] one site i am trying to play music from is being blocked from using flash :( how do i make it so that flash doesnt block itself from playing there? [15:32] millertimek1a2m3: try this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/dual-monitors-with-nvidia.html [15:33] I want to clear up whether a specific configuration option will be needed in xorg.conf to deal with HDMI [15:33] theregoesmyeye ah, that's why I mentioned a usability/resource tradeoff. But yes, ICEwm is up there. [15:33] ubuntumania: sounds like you're using adblock plus, check in its otpions [15:33] ubuntumania: what do u mean being blocked? [15:33] !who | millertimek1a2m3 [15:33] millertimek1a2m3: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [15:33] aah janisozaur still here :) [15:33] aniki, sorry, I dont know anything about HDMI [15:33] i have to go now [15:33] indus: i did put your name [15:33] indus: yeah, got to reinstalling finally [15:33] fluxbox may be light weight but there is no reason to push it on people, some people like using gnome with metacity and they shouldn't have to deal with an elitest attitude, especially with ubuntu since ubuntu is generaly targeted at newer users , in the future try suggesting it instead of outright saying gnome or kde or any other environment sucks and that they should switch to your preference and forget their own [15:33] theregoesmyeye anyway, look at alsamixer. See if that has muted you [15:33] indus: bye [15:33] cu tomorrows [15:34] trashbarg: is intel core 2 duo T6400 a 64 bit proc [15:34] been there. no mutes. [15:34] heres the error message : Your browser appears to have Flash installed but is blocking it for lala.com. Music playback happens via a Flash player, so it must be enabled to listen to music. [15:34] pratik_narain: yes it is [15:34] pratik_narain, core2duo is 64 bit [15:34] hi anyone using this on a mac? [15:34] ubuntumania: do you have flash installed? [15:34] sorry to be a pain.... all I'm after is some info :) - is there an install guide anywhere for setting up an ubuntu box as a gateway... (I'm aware there'll be lots of different bits of software i need for different things...!!??!) [15:34] how hard would it be to try out fluxbox? and how permanent of a thing would that be? [15:34] ubuntumania: u have some addons or something? [15:34] yes [15:34] hey do you understand this comment: Whereas most VNC servers share your desktop, tightvnc creates a completely new desktop, not attached to any actual screen. This makes it much less useful for some things (like remote help), but much more useful for others (like creating a public area for collaboration). [15:34] what kund of [15:34] ubuntumania: like what? [15:34] pratik_narain, if you got less than 4GB, you dont need to use the 64 bit version [15:35] jacky4: yes we do [15:35] yeh [15:35] bye [15:35] Viliny not permanent. And easy to try out [15:35] jacky4, are you asking what that means? [15:35] no problem, trashbarg- anyone else familiar with xrandr to fix resolution for an LCDTV connected via hdmi? [15:35] i gtg [15:35] bye [15:35] bye [15:35] indus: bye [15:35] trashbarg: I've installed 32 bit ubuntu on my laptop with 3gb ram. should i move to 64 bit [15:35] Viliny sudo apt-get install fluxbox [15:35] no [15:35] viliny: so if im vncing to my server computer....the mouse is not actually moving around...the concept just confuses me...but i see the exact same screen that is on there [15:35] pratik_narain, no [15:35] @ pratik_narain . u dont need to [15:35] Viliny then you can choose with gdm (or *dm) which wm loads [15:36] hi there all :) [15:36] unless u have >=4 gig ram,,u dont need to @ pratik_narain [15:36] hiya [15:36] hi dury [15:36] theregoesmyeye you look at alsamixer yet? [15:36] thanks i was just wondering [15:36] Hi from france :D [15:36] bon jour [15:36] u r welcome @ pratik_narain [15:36] pratik_narain, 64 bit will even give you a few disadvantages when it comes to development. [15:36] jacky4, what the application apparently does is create a whole new instance for just the remote connections instead of letting them control the existing environment [15:36] @ apexhouse , bon jour [15:36] janisozaur: so if im vncing to my server computer....the mouse is not actually moving around...the concept just confuses me...but i see the exact same screen that is on there [15:36] !fr | Belnadifia [15:36] Belnadifia: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr === geekneeus is now known as Guest15202 [15:36] BFevola: The first thing I did when I installed ubuntu. no mutes and all volumes are up. [15:36] i'm going to upgrade my home server - gateway. it's quite old compaq small form factor. i want to upgrade disk from 20 to 250GB, though bios reports the latter as 6-and-something GB. ubuntu 8.10 running from the former lists (using fdisk -l) the bigger drive as 250GB. what do you guys think is the likeliness of running into trouble? [15:36] Hmm oki thanks ;) [15:37] ubuntu 32bit doesn't have PAE enabled in its kernel? [15:37] Vicodin, whats so good about ubuntu is that at login you can choose whatever window manager you want to log in to [15:37] theregoesmyeye ok. That's the easy things out of the way. Let's get deeper :) [15:37] @ NetEcho , yes its enaabled [15:37] BFevola: yay... =p [15:37] jacky4: linux, or more specifically X windows uses "virtual terminals" that it doesn't have to show on the screen connected to your GPU [15:37] my bad, Viliny [15:37] then >4 gb of ram should work in 32bit anyway [15:37] viliny: but like is shit being refreshed on the server screen to the same way it looks on the vnc screen? [15:37] 9.04 has enabled @ NetEcho [15:37] theregoesmyeye you've probably already looked, but what's the entry for your soundcard when you do "lspci -v"? [15:37] I don't want to touch my ubuntu harddrive contents.... only fix the boot [15:37] jacky4, this computer with multiple desktops [15:37] @ NetEcho , u cant access beyond 3.5 gig, unless u use PAE [15:37] jacky4, please watch the language [15:38] if you delete a file it gets deleted... [15:38] jacky4: the same concept as the one when you hit alt-ctrl-f1, -f2, ... -f7 [15:38] kind of like desktop cubes? [15:38] trashbarg: can u help me with my inbuilt laptop microphone. Its not working via sound recorder app or cheese webcam app [15:38] @ NetEcho , so essentially u r wasting .6 gig ram [15:38] jacky4: no [15:38] jacky4, use another software if you want to control the same desktop as the user on the machine [15:38] kickAss I'm aware of that and no you can't access past 4gb, just 4gb will generally read as 3.5 because your system reserves that other .5 [15:38] jacky4: cube is still on the same VT [15:38] BFevola: 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03) [15:38] how can I do that guys... gessss [15:39] for what xargs use ! [15:39] @ NetEcho , thats what i said earlier , right? [15:39] @ helper , u r not clear... [15:39] kickAss if you look at lets say 4gb on Windows XP and 4gb on Vista 64bit vista will say 4gb and XP will say 3.5 but Vista can only use 3.5 anyway since the last .5 is reserved for hardware [15:39] talking about 32 and 64, how do you check how much your OS is currently able to use? i have 4 gigs and a 32 bit ubuntu... if it has PAE then it should be able to bind that 0.5 gigs left out there right? or is PAE something you have to specifically take into use? [15:39] boot the the live cd and then? [15:39] pratik_narain, i cant help you, but you should try to set anything to ALSA in the gnome-sound-settings and unmute anything with alsamixer [15:39] only difference is XP shows the amount of usable memory, vista shows the total installed [15:40] theregoesmyeye ok, I can't remember a problem with that controller offhand ... what about "aplay -l" , what does that give you? [15:40] quick question - if I apt-get 'Vim' editor - will it startup instead of 'Vi' when I type something like 'sudo vi filename.txt' [15:40] @ NetEcho ,in a sense u r right [15:40] do u guys know if tightvncserver supports copy and paste? [15:40] kickAss for what xrags command use i mean ! [15:40] can someone drive me to fix the boot please I would really appreciate it [15:40] panamaquono no, "vi" is an alias for vim [15:40] is there a way to use .ttf fonts in x without installing them into a system path? id rather keep them in my home dir [15:40] so VIM is already built in? [15:40] panamaquono so no matter what you will be using vim [15:40] panamaquono yes [15:40] ok, [15:41] Bfevola: card 0: ICH6 [Intel ICH6], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel ICH6] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 [15:41] Viliny that .5 is being reserved by your system to operate its components PAE will not allocate that remaining .5 to application memory [15:41] card 0: ICH6 [Intel ICH6], device 4: Intel ICH - IEC958 [Intel ICH6 - IEC958] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0... And a retard tigerjet (magicjack) [15:41] Entelin, create a .fonts folder and put them there [15:41] I find VI to be quite buggy, so I usually use nano [15:41] Is there a way to turn off adding attached drives to the Desktop? [15:41] ok great, thanks [15:41] theregoesmyeye ok, we know it is set to the right playback device ... [15:41] ill have to restart x after that i assume? [15:41] NetEcho, really? i remember reading it actually does allow application to benefit from it [15:41] kickAss I've been going through this same old song and dance for the last 4 years lol I'd hope I'm right [15:41] Entelin, I don't remember if I did or not [15:42] @ helper ... u use this to pipe results of previous commands and u can decide how many args u want to use at a time ...say this gives the folder size in decreaseing order, run it at ur home : ls | xargs -n1 du -sh |sort [15:42] help please, i lost the keyboard layout and gnome theme and when i execute gnome-settings-daemon, i get ** (gnome-settings-daemon:22323): WARNING **: Unable to start xrandr manager: unhandled X error while getting the range of screen sizes not present. [15:42] how can I copy my own gpg key from one comuter to other which is mine too? I've got two comuters and I might send e-mail. [15:42] but instructions for stuff always uses vi - which I for some reason cannot save and quit or just quit. is that common? [15:42] theregoesmyeye and you've looked at your amixer settings ("amixer | less") and all the settings look cool, right? [15:42] @ helper ...for detailed explanation look at wiki. or jsut google [15:42] and why windows 2000 use up to 16GB of RAM? and windows 2003 server too? [15:42] 32 bit [15:42] Viliny if you take that .5gb away from onboard components then your bios has nowhere to store queued instructions and your system can start messing up, which is why that memory gets reserved [15:42] right [15:42] kickAss thx :) [15:42] Halitech, offtopic, but i enjoyed you comments on the theme issue on the forums [15:42] BFevola, would you be able to have a quick private chat about setting up fluxbox? [15:42] @ helper u r wlcome [15:42] BFevola: All of those are fine. [15:42] NetEcho, fair enough [15:42] Viliny just after I try to help theregoesmyeye [15:42] thiebaude, the one about Ubuntu being ugly? [15:43] @ NetEcho ...yeh u r right [15:43] Halitech, yep [15:43] can anybody help me with laptop builtin webcam and microphone. [15:43] thiebaude, dude is an idiot :) [15:43] theregoesmyeye and "asoundconf list" shows the same soundcard I'm guessing? [15:43] Ranakah try 32gb on Win2k Advanced and up to 128gb of ram on 2k3 Datacenter R2 [15:43] @ pratik_narain elaborate ur problem [15:43] and a troll [15:43] shows the same ICH6 and the retard tigerjet. [15:43] Halitech, works fine without restarting X, thanks :) [15:44] cool [15:44] how do i show my desktop to my cosin? [15:44] anyone here which has experience in enabling multicast forwarding in ubuntu? [15:44] and windows xp 32 bit can use 4GB - memory on graphic on other hardware [15:44] theregoesmyeye ok, do a quick "speaker-test" to make sure it's not the app you are using [15:44] how should i configure grub to forward booting to cd drive or how can i boot iso from hard disk? [15:44] @ aaronvarghese , use screen sharing [15:44] links to mounted drives automatically show up on my desktop. I don't like this, how can I stop it? [15:44] aaronvarghese: printscreen and e-mail:-D [15:44] badoomtsh [15:44] thanks [15:44] @ janisozaur , i gues u ccant boot from iso thrug grub [15:44] later [15:44] Travis-42: in configuration editor under apps > nautilus [15:45] thanks VCoolio [15:45] kickAss: I'm able to take photos with cheese but can't capture videos. neither can i record any sound from the sound recorder app [15:45] kickAss: could you please try to press keys more accurately? [15:45] Entelin, ok, some apps might need to be restarted but I think most will pick them up right away [15:45] would a SATA blueray recorder work alright in ubuntu...? [15:46] theregoesmyeye "speaker-test" doesn't work either? [15:46] @ janisozaur ...no need to do so...as long as what i write makes sense to the other guy [15:46] apexhouse, no [15:46] gah [15:46] BFevola: nothing. [15:46] saves me pulling out of the winxp box... [15:46] @ pratik_narain ...r u sure, ur sound hardware is detected properly...have u tried doing the same in say XP? [15:46] kickAss: well, i can't make too much sense out of that. but anyway, thanks for trying to help [15:47] yes in vista with the supplied dell webcam central software [15:47] @kickAss [15:47] apexhouse: My BD-RE GGW H10N made by LG works fine. [15:48] @kickAss its on dell inspiron 1545 laptop [15:48] genni: oooh, interesting..... just plug in turn on? [15:48] @ janisozaur ...then i must rewrite what i told u earlier, wait a min? i said u cant boot from an iso sitting on ur hard disk, through hacking Grub, [15:48] hi every body! [15:48] mines an LG (slightly different model though) [15:48] genii, it works to burn? [15:48] could you help me with a fucking problem? pls? [15:48] apexhouse: I have it in an external enclosure (eSata) but basically yes, I watch movies from it. [15:48] @ pratik_narain ,,, okey then it seems ubuntu is not able to detect it properly, r u using the lates version of ubuntu , i mean r u on 9.04?

[15:48] gvaldez: no sorry, only UBUNTU problems [15:48] i cant use in pidgin [15:49] gvaldez, watch the language [15:49] Halitech: It burns non-copyrighted stuff fine [15:49] I cannot figure this out atm, what do I need to do to install java. [15:49] accounts like @rocketmail [15:49] in Yahoo [15:49] kickAss: yes 9.04 [15:49] @ gvaldez , mind ur language [15:49] !enter | gvaldez [15:49] gvaldez: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [15:49] genii: brill - so it would probably work to burn data [15:49] @ pratik_narain ...okey wait a min...i'll give u some links and ask u to do some steps...that will help u to fix the problem...gimme a min [15:49] Guys I hve a problem, when I boot up my ubuntu, my mouse and Keyboard sometimes fail to work [15:50] ok, sorry... i am new in this Ubuntu's world!

[15:52] Halitech, Genii, i suppose it wont hurt to give it a go [15:52] thiebaude: that worked to apparently install it, but its not being recognized by FireFox [15:52] will report back as / if / when it works / or not [delete as appropriate!] [15:53] navatwo, ok, 1 sec [15:53] im checking something [15:53] * Dekko wonders how do I set the owner of a harddrive in Ubuntu?

There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free [16:08] The default config file has nearly nothing in it... [16:08] my eye of gnome opens all pictures with 99% size, so they are blurry unless I resize the window. is there a way to fix that? [16:08] mine looks like this [16:09] stephans: http://pastebin.com/m594f4270 [16:10] That is correct... that is the default configuration. X should be smart enough to figure out how to work.. [16:10] Anyone able to help me? [16:10] @ pratik_narain ...ohh ...m xteremly sorry....i guess the solution is just to modify/add a single line to alsa config file.... [16:10] ok everyone, i have a problem: my DVD-/+ RW drive will _not read_ any burnable medium.. output of dmesg|tail: http://gar.pastebin.com/f6fd970be [16:10] When it is not you may have to use the file to over ride... [16:10] @ pratik_narain ...I I solved microphone problems on my Dell Inspiron 1501 by adding one line to both /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base and /etc/modprobe.d/options - the line to be added is the same: options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m26 [16:10] stephans: but the page says it should have all that other stuff [16:11] stephans: so you think i should wing it and just add what it suggested about the virtual part... [16:11] Yes you can over ride it, but then no more auto config will happen. [16:11] hello world [16:11] @ pratik_narain ..i guess that will solve the problme...and i guess this sound problem is a know issue with dell sys for quite some time [16:11] gartral: DVD-R drives can get laser fade as they age. If all of your media gets sector errors, then replace the drive. [16:12] If you add or remove hardware, or plug another monitor in you have to do everything manually... [16:12] kickAss: @ any sugestions? [16:12] dajhorn: it reads non-burnable media FINE [16:12] @ fanec75m .....learnign to prog? [16:12] gartral: Yup. That is still a typical mode of failure. [16:12] submit a bug report to the X in the ubuntu bug system... there should be a guide for that on the front page of ubuntu.com [16:13] @ vallhalla81 , is the answer YES to what i asked in my last question [16:13] gartral: Isolate for the drive. Take a disc that it won't read to one or more other computers, and check whether it is readable. [16:13] Users can not be expected to deal with this nonsense... [16:13] dajhorn: being able to play a DVD and not burn one? i'de like too see where that's stated :) [16:13] dajhorn: i already know the disk is fine, and its not reading any of several manufactuer's media [16:13] @ gartral ...just a combo driver, right? only play ...no burning... [16:14] how can i list existing groups [16:14] kickAss: I don't seem to find the 2 files you mentioned [16:14] hi there, I try to set a user passwd in persistent liveusb mode and it works but won't survive a reboot. any ideas? [16:14] kickAss: no, combo burner, can burn everything up to dvd-/+DL media [16:14] If you bought a machine with Ubuntu on it... the you might return it... so OEM' avoid... and fewer people use the OS... nobody wants that except Microsoft. [16:14] kickAss: its an older BENQ maybe.. 5-6 years old [16:14] @ gartral ...just a combo driver...buring for CDs and play for DVDs [16:14] i'm frm india, i'm unable to copy the vcd video files to my pc. Any idea why? how to overcome this. [16:15] justfil: getent group [16:15] @ gartral ...quite possible [16:15] on jaunty, the movie player app (totem) shows the volume icon greyed out.... though i can hear sounds through other apps... help? [16:15] stephans: you're right... i don't know what to do. i'm just going to go with the guide they gave me... again [16:15] Anyone able to help me? [16:15] @ saji_ .....elaborate ur problem....be specific else we cant help [16:15] kickAss: noo.. it burns dvds.. i have a few that are backups of my drive dude [16:16] kickAss: what's possible..? your english isn't very clear [16:16] kickAss: @ yes dvd's work fine in other systems [16:16] @ gartral ...really...i have not seen anything like that out here in taiwan [16:16] kickAss: @ fanec75m .....learnign to prog?..... please explain, I dont understand... [16:16] thank you. another q: if i delete all the users in a group (so it become empty), is the group deleted too? [16:16] kickAss: want a snapshot of K3B confirming the Drives specs? easily done [16:17] i tried copying *.dat files from vcd(video cd), but after it starts copying, it stops soon, resulting in a 0 KB file. It always happens so. [16:17] @ fanec75m ....those ppl who r learnign programming find it quite exciting to use the "Hello World!" sentence...hence i said so...neverming [16:17] @gartral pls help. [16:17] my php is running as a certain user which is not allowed to chmod or touch; how do i give this user permissions for any file? [16:18] I have my key at keyring. How can I bring that to other comp? [16:18] saji_: vcd? is it a "protected" vcd? [16:18] nobody? unfortunately google isn't very helpful either, /etc/shadow survives a reboot as does /etc/passwd but nevertheless the system "forgets" the set password and allows logging in with a blank one [16:18] gartral its a normal vcd. [16:18] or4n9e: what version of Ubuntu is this? [16:19] saji_: try taking an image rip with K3B or Wodim [16:19] whats the pachage called for open office? [16:19] gartral, intrepid ibex [16:19] hi! [16:19] or4n9e: ok, what kernal, what arch. and have you installed any expernal PPAs? [16:20] @ pratik_narain ....just check this is turned on, for ur sound recorder, gone to system>preferences>sound and the ASLA is chosen under "capture" [16:20] gartral: ok. after i take the image, how do i mount it via the terminal. I know there is a way. but how? [16:20] hey guys, just a quick question. is there a list of WORKING WIRELESS CARDS IN UBUNTU? [16:20] gartral: what's a PPA? [16:20] hi i'm trying to set up dual monitor on my system... i got both monitors to work, but right now windows will not drag from the left monitor to the right... it's like 2 different seperate desktops... only when i start an application in 1 monitor does it stay there... how do i make one continuous desktop? [16:20] For future reference: Installing linux_image-2.6.24 in Jaunty failed miserably. [16:20] !ppa | Arch1 [16:20] Arch1: With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. [16:20] @ wubrgamer ...almost all the currently popular cards work out of the box... [16:20] gartral, the kernel is a custom build (but that shouldn't matter here), x86, no external PPAs [16:20] hi chopssos [16:20] kickAss, but is there a list? [16:21] Arch1: its also a good way to distribute malware too unsuspecting users [16:21] i guesss yes @ wubrgamer [16:21] gartral: What about them? [16:21] kickAss, now I see got the point, sorry I am not programmer... [16:21] Anyone able to help with with my command? [16:21] kickAss, do you know where it is? I can't find it [16:21] @ fanec75m ...man dont take it seriously...just chil.... [16:21] hi, i have a question: i want to use my intel 4965 wireless card in master mode. how can i do? [16:21] gartral: and why are you asking me this? [16:21] or4n9e: costom kernals *_ALWAYS_* matter, especially with Ubuntu... [16:21] @ wubrgamer ..wait a min..lemme google it out [16:21] I currently do sqldumps of my database and save them to .gz files with the command... mysqldump -hlocalhost -umyuser -pmypass dbname | gzip -9 > /home/dbname-dbbackup.sql.gz how can I change this to save them as 7z? as I only know how to 7z with... 7z a -t7z /home/file.sql.7z /home/file.sql -mx7 [16:22] Arch1: read back dude, i was asking the other guy for his architecture... yeesh [16:22] kickAss, foudn it in the wiki [16:22] it's old though [16:22] gartral: oh, sorry [16:22] gartral, this is a problem with "passwd", i.e. its persistence. sorry, but what influence should the kernel have here? [16:22] I know that mine "just works" [16:22] gartral: how to mount iso images via terminal, after i make image of a vcd. [16:23] it's just that I set a user passwd with "passwd", it works awesome in the current session but won't survive the reboot [16:23] saji_: you dont _need_ too mount it, VLC and others (SMplayer, gmplayer) can play straight from ISO... [16:23] oh! [16:23] @ wubrgamer ...this should be enough : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported [16:23] while /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd stay untouched [16:24] thus this is a bit confusing to me [16:24] gartral:but if i need to mount, how will i do it via the terminal? [16:24] @ wubrgamer ...yeh thats fine... [16:24] kickAss, shouldn't the page have been updated? [16:24] @ pratik_narain ... r u still facing the same prob? [16:24] ugh, I'm leaving [16:25] or4n9e: well, depending on what you configured (or not) it *may* have caused the kernal too eithr look in the wrong place, or ignore passwords alltogeth (i dont remember how.. but theres a stupid way it can fail spectacularly if you *dont* set the right options) my advice: reinstall [16:25] @ wubgramer...yes [16:25] kickAss: yes man [16:25] kickAss: those solutions were for windows [16:25] gartral:but if i need to mount, how will i do it via the terminal? === papapep-afk is now known as papapep [16:26] @ pratik_narain ...dude...we'll fix it anywya....wait a min...m on phone...will be right back [16:26] :-( [16:26] gartral, I understand what you tell me but I can tell you that it's just the same with the stock intrepid kernel (I already tried that) [16:26] kickAss: no probs dude [16:26] @ pratik_narain .... u dint see my last response to u.....that was for linux... [16:26] saji_: umm.. sudo mount -t iso(type) -0 loop /path/to/iso /path/to/folder/where/yu/want/access/too/iso/contents [16:27] so, any other ideas? i.e. an actual reason why /etc/shadow gets ignored after reboot? [16:27] gartral: Its -o , not -0 [16:27] once I set it it works, reboot: it works not (i.e. you need to login with a blank one) and setting it again works again for that specific session [16:27] or4n9e: ok, so your saying you stumbled into another spactacular Ubuntu-fail? like in 8.04? [16:28] gartral: iso(type)? [16:28] gartral, like in 8.04? [16:29] gartral nPici thanks... [16:29] Pici thanks [16:29] or4n9e: theres something horrible wrong with your CD then, cause i used Ibex for a year and a half and never ran into *that* [16:29] kickAss: its already selected [16:29] saji_: ok ,a normal cd is iso9660 im not sure about vcd, and i said -0 loop, it was supposed too be -o loop, sorry [16:29] gartral, just too be sure here... I'm talking about liveusb with casper-rw partition for persistent storage [16:29] my intrepid hd install doesn't have this issue [16:30] Has a recent update disabled SSH tunneling by default? [16:30] I am running a server and a friend of mine was talking about some login blocker for a certain ower if an attacker would try.. does this ring a bell? [16:30] hey, for some reason beagle doesnt wanna index my evolution mail. is that a common issue? [16:30] gartral: thanks again. [16:30] I am having issues installing java on x64, anyone done it recently and ciould help me out? [16:30] or4n9e: that is completly outside my scope of understanding, i recommend if you want *security* install ubuntu too your hard drive.. live session storage isn't secure.. at all [16:30] I keep getting "open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed" today [16:31] Kira: someone revoked your rights too that folder... [16:31] gartral: what folder?? [16:31] how can i check up on the status of apache? i'm trying to debug a website and all of a sudden I keep getting "waiting for hostname..." in my browser [16:31] Kira: that file, try opening it as root [16:32] dajhorn: hello? === yofel_ is now known as yofel [16:32] @ pratik_narain ,,this one is for studio ,,,u can try it out though:http://gaarai.com/2009/01/27/using-the-mic-on-a-dell-studio-with-ubuntu/ [16:32] gartral, while I appreciate your efforts, your comments are not helpful at all nor do they address the issue I have to face... I need to setup a persistent intrepid based liveusb for customers and an answer like "install it to a hd" doesn't help that much here [16:32] Kira: the folder that whatever your trying to open is residing in [16:32] gartral: I'm talking about SSH tunneling. [16:32] kickAss: gonna try it [16:32] I am having issues installing java on x64, anyone done it recently and could help me out? [16:33] gartral: I'm using my ubuntu server (which is co-located at a data center) as a socks5 proxy. [16:33] or4n9e: well, if its a kiosk-type install.. you probably dont want a password anyway, right? im sorry im not much help, i thought you were using this on a personal setup, you kind of failed too communicate your situation too me >.> [16:33] login blocker after certain tries.. what program / firewall should I be looking for? [16:34] Kira: im not sure then, im sorry [16:34] Kira: i would call them, make sure their admin didnt do something dumb like block socks5 in the firewall.. [16:34] them? [16:36] I am having issues installing java on x64, anyone done it recently and could help me out? I have installed the .bin from Sun, but when I try to run applets, I get errors and applications will not run [16:36] gartral, no kiosk-type install... As I said, I appreciate your time and engagement but a common problem with this channel imho is that ALL folks asking questions are considered newbs and that simply not the case. I asked a very specific question I need a solution/explanation for and all I get is useless input like "stupid man, that's not possible or install it to hd or whatever" everything is possible, you just need a proper insight into the sysinter [16:36] nals and for that particular problem I'm out of ideas unfortunately. thus I came here to discuss seriously [16:37] navatwo: why aren't you using the repositories? [16:37] jrib: I do not know what you are talking about in all honesty =/ [16:37] kickAss: solved with the studio link thanx man [16:37] navatwo: do you know about APT? [16:38] navatwo: what are you trying to install¿¿ [16:38] g'day all:) [16:38] Hi [16:38] jrib: nope, xangua jre. =/ [16:39] !software > navatwo [16:39] navatwo, please see my private message [16:39] any problems not being seen to yet? [16:39] How do I Set the SDL_VIDEO_FULLSCREEN_HEAD environment variable to "1"? [16:39] navatwo: is in the repositories!! [16:39] jrib: it doesnt work. [16:39] navatwo: the standard (and recommended) way to install software is to use the repositories. Programs like Synaptic and Add/Remove let you do this. ubottu gave you detailed instructions [16:39] cpu [16:39] I have all that installed [16:39] so, is here any casper pro that'll be able to help me? [16:39] but firefox does not recognizeit [16:39] Hello again, I have a problem with my sound system. I'm using ALSA (NO, OSS DOES NOT WORK), and ALSA is showing my Logitech ClearChat headset in its sound config, and the test runs correctly, however, I have the headset set up to work the way it should, and I don't hear anything except the test sound in the config. Can anyone help me out? [16:39] you know when update ubuntu sometimes it update the... I don't the name.... for instance 2.6.24or something more.. what is it? [16:39] or4n9e: i never called you stupid, and i am being quite serious, you failed too mention that you werwe using a persistent install method, you also failed too mention any technical info about the system, i had to ask you, and with all do respect, if you dont want to be answered like a "newb" then dont ask simple questions.. as of right now, im looking into the problem, and ill share any info i find [16:39] navatwo: what doesn't work exactly? What did you do? and what was the outcome? [16:40] I installed from the repositories, as well as from the .bin from sun [16:40] sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin [16:40] is that the kernel [16:40] is the plugin for the browsers [16:40] neither allow me to open up applets [16:40] hah [16:40] all 'do' respect [16:40] very good. [16:40] !who | navatwo [16:40] navatwo: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [16:40] does it affect to the grub boot loader? [16:40] navatwo: by "applets" you mean applets in your browser? [16:40] hey, for some reason beagle doesnt wanna index my evolution mail. is that a common issue? [16:41] navatwo: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin ; is the plugin for the browsers [16:41] xangua: thank you. [16:41] gartral, thanks. one correction though (you're right with the sys specs)... I mentioned the persistent liveusb in my VERY first question [16:41] !grub [16:41] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [16:41] Finally, that worked. I could have swore I already tried installing that. Well, thanks :) [16:42] Can anyone help out with my ALSA problem? [16:42] or4n9e: no, you mentioned "live USB" not "Casper-rw" [16:42] be back right now [16:42] sh: tracerout: not found [16:43] gartral: casper-rw is a volume name given to a liveboot partition so that you can have a persistent install [16:43] traceroute to master.tremulous.net (67.222.136.108), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets [16:43] 1 192.168.0.10 (192.168.0.10) 0.076 ms 0.128 ms 0.157 ms [16:43] "hi there, I try to set a user passwd in persistent liveusb mode and it works but won't survive a reboot. any ideas?" <-- that's copypaste from the log man [16:43] traceroute to master.tremulous.net (67.222.136.108), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets [16:43] 1 192.168.0.10 (192.168.0.10) 0.069 ms 0.124 ms 0.155 ms [16:43] traceroute to master.tremulous.net (67.222.136.108), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets [16:43] 1 192.168.0.10 (192.168.0.10) 0.074 ms 0.124 ms 0.156 ms [16:43] Hello again, I have a problem with my sound system.

[16:44] gartral, "hi there, I try to set a user passwd in persistent liveusb mode and it works but won't survive a reboot. any ideas?" <-- that's copypaste from the log man, sorry, but that's the truth [16:44] :D [16:44] Arch1: do you have AOSS? [16:44] !repeat [16:44] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait.

'touch ~/testfile' and 'sudo touch /testfile' my guess is that perhaps only /home retains changes across reboots [16:44] gartral: AOSS? or OSS? [16:45] somehow I doubt that nobody knows the answer [16:45] gartral: And if you mean AOSS, what is that? [16:45] pepperjack, nope... I did a bunch of chanes to the whole filesystem already [16:45] changes [16:46] gartral, come on :D I've written PERSISTENT or not? that means casper-rw [16:46] or4n9e: Have you tried doing something like: sync before reboot to make sure cached data gets written to storage before a restart happens? [16:46] !trash [16:46] The location of Trash has changed since 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash [16:47] * Arch1 waits patiently for gartral to answer, realizing he's got about 5 people asking him questions [16:47] genii, casper do a sync by default and I already tried a manual sync as well yes [16:47] <[t0rc]> even if I have set up key-based authentication on sshd, will I still have to type in the users password? I thought it would allow me to login without the password?

[16:48] i really wouldnt do it that way, if i was going to share my application with others, UnderSampled [16:48] Arch1: sorry for the wait, AOSS is the OSS <-> ALSA thing that helps connect devices too "pipes" i beilive.. anyway, you would find it useful too use sudo apt-get install aoss [16:48] spudcakepie: Create a launcher to the location of ~/.local/share [16:48] spudCakePie: gconf-editor > apps/nautilus/desktop [16:48] can some1 help me???

[16:49] !ask | juanjuan1 [16:49] juanjuan1: please see above [16:49] gartral: It's showing no package labeled AOSS. Are you using some kind of extra software source?

[16:54] if you happen to find something out, just ping please [16:54] Arch1: it worked before, since jaunty it only reboots GDM or X or kernel or kind of it but NOT the computer [16:54] CosmiChaos, when I select restart it shuts down, I see my bios and it restarts, I don't have a reboot option [16:54] or4n9e: the closest thing i can find, is too make a 4th partition for /boot...

[16:55] cosmichaos: Sorry, this is completely out of my region of fixable problems... You might need to go to the Ubuntu forums at ubuntuforums.org . They can help you out.

[16:55] or4n9e: nvm, that one was waaay old, and using 8.04 [16:55] CosmiChaos: kinda like hitting reset button on pc [16:56] I believe its doing a kind of Quick-Reboot [16:56] jrib: hmm? [16:56] please help [16:56] gartral: Alsa-OSS is already installed. What now? [16:56] gartral, IC, anyway thx [16:56] UnderSampled: if you want it in all of your gnome session, you can use ~/.profile [16:56] pepperjack: i want it to properly unmount my ext4 thanks [16:56] @ mataks ...have u fixed the broken packages....if not run this first: sudo apt-get install -fix-broken [16:56] CosmiChaos: there are a number of commands for clean reboot. for instance sudo shutdown -r now or sudo reboot [16:57] pepperjack: well that sudo reboot is doing the same thing than hitting on reboot no bios [16:57] @ mataks ...and once this is done...install samba thru apt-get it will take care of all dependencies by itself... [16:57] CosmiChaos: if you still see the same issue then it would have to be some quick boot bios setting causing it not ubuntu [16:57] UnderSampled: is that what you want? [16:57] CosmiChaos: during quickboot you can still hit the proper key like f1 or f8 or whatever is specific to your comp to get into the bios [16:57] pepperjack: there is no bios feature in the world that lets you skip loading the bios, it is ubuntu problem just reloading the kernel but noot resetting the mashine before [16:58] jrib: I don't really know.

[17:00] Alvinware: you should have it by default [17:00] Alvinware: "rename" is a command [17:00] gartral, sure I built a whole bunch of customizations upon 8.10 and won't start over now. I've tried 9.04 due to the passwd issue as well though and the situation remains the same - also with stock 9.04 [17:00] pepperjack: it immediately loads ubuntu again not accepting f8 or del [17:00] thanks guys [17:01] howto reboot? === ubuntu is now known as rracer [17:01] Does anyone have invites on DEMONOID or BITME?

That's what you're seeing. [17:04] CosmiChaos, so u dont get grub up either? [17:04] NewfierRich: if you uninstall that older kernel, it'll remove itself from grub. [17:05] mickster04: pepperjack: i will remove that bullshit kexec-tools [17:05] Cellofellow: I will give that a try [17:05] NewfierRich: There's the current kernel and an older.

[17:07] Armageddon: what version do you need? [17:07] how am I supposed to change the locale from POSIX to UTF8 in ubuntu? I've searched around google, but apparently there's a dozen ways to do it [17:08] janisozaur: that will install grub to the mbr of the second disk [17:08] did u try bing.com [17:08] janisozaur: though you really only need one instance of grub on a particular computer.

[17:08] VCoolio: the very latest, and no i wont try to compile from source, cause last time i tried doing that and installing the libraries my computer crashed and i had to format ! [17:08] gartral: it does automatically, the kernel manages it. when a core has worked for a long time, it automatically moves to another core. also, if you fill up a core, the next processes will use the remaining cores [17:08] cellofellow: i know, but i have use for that.

I have ubuntu 9.04 on hp laptop [17:10] Arch1: just ask, dont ask to ask [17:10] Why is it that when I run my test in System>Preferences>Sound for my USB audio device in ALSA it works, but any other sounds do not? [17:10] VCoolio: why not ? :/ [17:10] trouble in wlan connection... [17:10] I setup Ubuntu on a spare computer, and I setup ssh with rsa keys. However, the connection isn't too stable. If I disconnect, I can't log back in half the time. I want this computer to be "headless" but it still doesn't seem to want to start vnc, any ideas? [17:10] Arch1: be more specific, please [17:10] Armageddon: it expects karmic stuff, so lots of dependency issues probably [17:10] Beyecixramd: What do you need clarified? [17:11] phuckuall! [17:11] VCoolio: and i cant download the latest from source and mine crashes more often, now what are my choices ? [17:11] what is the best twitter client for gnome? [17:11] phuckpricey! [17:11] lol @ twitter client question xD [17:11] Armageddon: use other mailclient ;) or use older version that worked for you and lock the version in synaptic [17:12] just after installation of 9.04 ...i tried using wlan in office where ..i just have to assoicate with ap ..i could see ap name on the network manager applet on panel [17:12] Arch1: which sounds play, and which don't [17:12] Beyecixramd: I am using a ClearChat PC USB. I can only hear the test sound. [17:12] VCoolio: do you have any other mail client as good as evolution ? i don't think Ubuntu chose it for fun, i think they chose it for a purpose ! [17:12] Beyecixramd: All else cannot be heard. [17:12] Arch1: maybe you haven't configured your default sound card [17:12] when i moved to my home network ..i have to assoicate with ap + create pppoe connection... [17:12] and those are playing somewhere else [17:12] VCoolio: feel free to give me a client and i'll try it ! maybe i would like it more ! [17:13] Armageddon: depends on what you want, Thunderbird has lots of features, claws-mail is very lightweight and is just an emailclient [17:13] Beyecixramd: This is not a sound card. This is a USB headset. I have set everything in the Sound preference to point to this headset, and it can only play the test beep. [17:13] Arch1: a USB headset with a bundled USB card [17:13] VCoolio, search it in Add/Remove, or Synaptic Package Manager. [17:13] VCoolio: IMAP, POP3, SMTP, and Address book !

[17:30] Arch1: in a terminal, ps aux | grep pulseaudio, see if it's running already. [17:30] you mean porn, whitor? [17:30] that made my day [17:30] sketchyd, of course [17:30] use incognito mode for that [17:30] theres a few plugins i think [17:30] or maybe its on the beta [17:30] did anyone here tried "blkd945gclf little falls" on ubuntu? [17:31] not only that... but internal sites in my network [17:31] Pici, PulseAudio is a server service for streaming music, right? [17:31] i missed the original question, whitor [17:31] what were you looking for? [17:31] also facebook ... whatever... I don't want to switch modes to clear the location bar drop down list [17:32] cellofellow: It gave me the following output: [17:32] arch 6610 0.0 0.0 3336 800 pts/0 S+ 12:31 0:00 grep pulseaudio [17:32] mataks: try sudo apt-get install samba-common | sudo apt-get install samba [17:32] Arch1: is it running already or not? [17:32] sketchyd, trying to clear the location bar drop down list [17:32] mataks: and you need to change your server ! [17:32] bastidrazor, http://paste.ubuntu.com/236887/ [17:32] clearing private data doesn't do it [17:32] permanently? [17:32] Arch1: ok, no, it's not running [17:32] b [17:32] yes, permanantly [17:32] Halitech, No. I don't mean that. It's only market. They are trying to make us spend money [17:32] Armageddon, what server? im just new to linux. how to change server [17:32] Arch1: try pulseaudio --start [17:32] cellofellow: How do I start it? [17:32] mataks, that isn't what i asked for. [17:32] cellofellow: OK let me try that [17:32] Halitech, No. I don't mean that. It's only market. They are trying to make us spent money [17:32] c ya guys [17:32] Deleting .mozilla does do it [17:33] cellofellow: It seems to have started... [17:33] Whitor: do you have any of these sites bookmarked? firefox will bring up bookmarks in the address bar as well [17:33] whitor - firefox, tools, options, privacy, location bar at the bottom [17:33] so I know its in the ff profile somewhere [17:33] switch it to nothing [17:33] Besogon, so by your thinking (and please correct me if I'm wrong) we'd still be using 8088 computers and cp/m [17:33] gartral: I'm back. [17:33] Alvinware: Pulseaudio is what audio is played through on the normal Ubuntu desktop install. [17:33] Armageddon, when i try to install samba-common it says 0newly insallted.. i already have samba-common [17:33] bastid_razor, ooppps.. wait [17:33] Arch1: in your GNOME sound settings you want to tell it to use the PulseAudio Sound Server [17:34] whitor - did you find that? [17:34] sketchyd, you mean Edit - Preferences ? There is no 'options' under tools ... [17:34] cellofellow: Just did that. Now what? [17:34] which ff are you on? [17:34] 3.0.12 on ubuntu [17:34] but yeah, that could be too [17:34] dajhorn: any ideas on my drive, i just burned a cd no problem, and im watching a dvd movie now.. [17:34] im on vista right now, so my menus may be slightly different [17:34] * cellofellow thinks he's lagging out [17:35] * Beyecixramd is laughing out [17:35] gartral: Nope. Getting five years from a burner, with medium to heavy use, is pretty good. [17:35] sketchyd, ahh ... yeah prolly a little different [17:35] Halitech, Don't you enaugh with many games we have on 32-bit systems. [17:35] Pici, what Real-time scheduling, and high priority for pulseaudio do? [17:35] * [t0rc] is back (gone 00:44:16) [17:35] bastid_razor, here http://paste.ubuntu.com/236905/ [17:35] anyway ... in the privacy tab... I don't see anyhting referencing the location bar [17:35] im also on 3.5.1 [17:35] cellofellow: I heard a "bink" sound: I think you got it working. Let me test it. [17:35] does anybody know how to get microsoft wireless media desktop working? [17:35] Besogon, when I want to play games I power up my xbox [17:35] Alvinware: I don't believe that the realtime kernel is in a good state lately. [17:35] Hmm [17:36] dajhorn: but that doesnt explain why it plays dvds ok, and wont burn, or even acknowledge the fact that it has media in it [17:36] cellofellow: You got it working. Thank you SO MUCH. [17:36] Arch1: in the Sound and Video section there's also the PulseAudio Device Chooser. Run that, and you'll have an icon that looks like an audio jack. Click that and Configure Local Sound Server. [17:36] Pici, Will it make music sound better? [17:36] NewfierRich, checking to see if they are bookmarked [17:36] Arch1: hey, we're not done. :) [17:36] cellofellow: What else then? [17:36] The most recent samba update caused a 'post-installation script returned error exit status 1'. What's the command used to repair packages? [17:37] Alvinware: Short answer No. Long answer: people who produce music often use it. [17:37] Halitech, Rememer moonflight didn managed by 8088. (or thomething like that) [17:37] cellofellow: I just did my stuff, typed in the name of the correct sink, and boom, it's working. [17:37] Arch1: well, if it works then it works. [17:37] Halitech, Rememer moonflight did managed by 8088. (or thomething like that) [17:37] cellofellow: I don't know how to thank you for this... I've been trying to get my sound to work for months. [17:38] Arch1: well, if you want to experiment with the PulseAudio Device Chooser you can. It has some cool stuff. [17:38] Pici, Do you mean it's just for the speed only? [17:38] Besogon, you've lost me completely [17:38] Arch1: sort of odd that what you had to do was install pulseaudio, most people here seem to fix their sound by removing it. I guess it's always a mixed bag. [17:39] Alvinware: I don't know exactly what it does, but theres really no reason to stray from the -generic kernels that we provide. [17:39] cellofellow: Dosen't help I tried to install OSS and a tutorial told me to remove it. [17:39] Well I'm out, thanks for the help [17:40] Is there anyone who can help with a dcc problem on ubuntu? [17:40] /server irc.efnet.net [17:40] OSS is normally not the route you want to go, as most apps don't use its API. Most use either ALSA or (in GNOME at least) GStreamer. [17:40] Pici, Are you a developer for Ubuntu too? [17:40] whitor - if you dl 3.5 you should get your location bar prefs [17:40] Hi there. [17:40] /server irc.efnet.net [17:41] mataks, do you have anything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ? [17:41] My screenlets calendar won't sync. Don't know if I did something wrong, or if it's the screenlet. I d/l it from the repository. [17:41] I'm having a little problem with Anjuta. When I try creating a GTK+ project I get an error message telling me "Missing packages: libglade-2.0 >= 2.6.0." [17:41] But I installed the glade library that was recommended on synaptics. [17:41] bastidrazor, wait i'll check [17:42] xor: install libglade-dev then. [17:42] I did. [17:42] bastidrazor, there's a folder but it's empty.. [17:42] huh [17:42] what version? [17:42] <[t0rc]> is it common that MPlayer cannot do a proper Jump To if you drag the time slider? [17:42] The one that was recommended on synaptics. [17:43] I installed anjuta and installed the recommended packages. [17:43] That included libglade. [17:43] Shut the fuck up!! [17:43] tu [17:43] Holy crap, AutoCorrect in Writer is a pain in the rear! [17:43] [t0rc]: the Mplayer that was compiled too the Ubuntu packages is flawed in manymany ways, i highly suggest compileing for yourself [17:43] I don't understand why it's complaining about the version. [17:43] !language | Crazymethjesus [17:43] Crazymethjesus: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [17:43] xor, anjuta is broken as hell in Ubuntu. GBood luck with it. [17:43] * cellofellow isn't sure but it might need the -dev version of the package, xor. [17:44] <[t0rc]> gartral, indeed - good to know. Another question, SMPlayer is just an interface for Mplayer yes? [17:44] xor: well, if it's just Anjuta isn't working, try Code::Blocks maybe. [17:44] porter1: What would you suggest for GTK+ development on Ubuntu? [17:44] xor, you can still use glade though. [17:44] [t0rc]: yes, and it will complain perfusly if you try to use it with the Ubuntu-provided mplayer! [17:44] Pici, The update support for ubuntu 9.04 was supported until the end of this year, or the beginning of the next year, right?! Once the newer version of Ubuntu is out, could i get to the version by using update manager? [17:44] xor, what language? Python is great for development [17:45] !release | Alvinware [17:45] Alvinware: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases [17:45] <[t0rc]> gartral, aye makes enough sense. haha. You seem wise, any other suggestions for MPlayer interfaces or such? Anything special I need to know when compiling? [17:45] i have a realtek hd onboard soundcard, don't have sound in ubuntu 9.04 [17:45] porter1: I was thinking about C, I want something that works on Windows as well. [17:45] xor: for Gnome development, you have GObject with C, Vala, Python, and C# as choices. [17:45] xor, are you good at c? [17:45] porter1: I thought about Python and Java as well. [17:45] mataks, type apt-cache policy samba then pastebin the output [17:45] porter1: But I just like C better. [17:46] porter1: I'm not what someone would consider "good" at C. I get the job done. [17:46] xor: while I've not tried it Mono (GTK#) might work. [17:46] xor, ok then. THe GTK+ guides about how to use glade-3 with C should work [17:46] [t0rc]: use yacc... aside from that, continue about with either make-install or i used checkinstall.. both leave the same result [17:46] i have a realtek hd onboard soundcard, don't have sound in ubuntu 9.04, how can I get it working [17:46] I'm interested in remotely logging into my Ubuntu machine using XDMCP, but the remote machine is internet accessable (not behind a firewall). Is there an easy way protect my XDMCP connection? [17:46] cellofellow: I don't want to use anything even remotely Novel or MS related. [17:46] xor, you might also consider another IDE if that's what you're needing from Anjuta. [17:46] xor: there's stuff on the Mono website for getting GTK# working on Windows. GTK# works great on Linux. [17:47] xor: ok, then... [17:47] xor, good man :) [17:47] bastidrazor, k [17:47] unperson: why XDMCP? use ssh + X forward if your worried about security [17:47] I'm looking for help with a dcc prob. [17:47] hi [17:47] does anyone know if ubuntu supports mounting htfs filesystems? [17:47] Bishop, sure does. [17:47] bisho ntfs you mean? yes [17:47] hi ganesh [17:47] Hello ganesh [17:47] unperson: xdmcp is insecure, period. You can't tunnel it cause it runs over UDP. [17:47] no. HTFS = SCO OpenServer [17:47] gartral, Basically I want to run the entire session of the remote machine, not just select programs. [17:47] Argh [17:48] Bishop, auto detected all my winxp mounts on install of 9.04 ... :) [17:48] yeah hi [17:48] Didn't see that [17:48] bastidrazor, http://paste.ubuntu.com/236935/ [17:48] gartral, Do you mean those updates will make my old Ubuntu version become a new one, same with the new release one? [17:48] unperson: NXserver! [17:48] i ve auto mount [17:48] bishop, if SCO patented it, probably not :P [17:48] realtek hd onboard soundcard, don't have sound in ubuntu 9.04, how can I get it working [17:48] cellofellow, Okay. So can I get what I want using VNC software? [17:48] it can't working auto mount help me [17:48] running a server on ubuntu is so much faster than on windows.. on an eeepc right now lol [17:48] !patience | Krag [17:48] Krag: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. [17:48] porter1: I might use another IDE, I just thought since it is advertised as being the IDE for Gnome develpment, that it would be well maintained. (I'm still not sure it isn't my fault, so it might very well be decently maintained) [17:48] unperson: FreeNX is based on SSH and faster than VCN. I'd try that. [17:48] hey folks - i have a rather screwed up ubuntu install right now - mysql is fubared, and rails is giving me weird errors. can someone help me completely remove those two apps so i can install fresh? [17:49] s/VCN/VNC/ [17:49] Alvinware: if you want to upgrade too the newest Ubuntu, use apt-get dist-upgrade or the upgrade manager [17:49] sketchyd: try sudo apt-get purge mysql [17:49] I'll try a few others. Thanks for the help guys! =) [17:49] sudo apt-get --purge remove mysql-server [17:50] xor, it isn't. It's just that a certain library has been flipping between being included with anjuta and not being included. it's annoying as hell. I would recommend using either Eclipse (not from the repos since it is STILL unmaintainted as far as I know), or codeblocks [17:50] gartral, Alvinware: dist-upgrade will not upgrade to a new release of Ubuntu. [17:50] ok i put "export BEAGLE_WALK_THE_DOG=1", but now i wanna turn that off. should i simply put it to 0? [17:50] ok i put "export BEAGLE_WALK_THE_DOG=1", but now i wanna turn that off. should i simply put it to 0? [17:50] mataks, apt-cache policy samba-common [17:50] porter1: auto mount not working for me [17:50] Thanks I'll keep them in mind. [17:51] Cube: Yes, no need to repeat though. [17:51] trying that r3dbranch [17:51] hey everyone.. newbie here looking to try out (K)ubuntu. I have a 64bit Intel proc, but the 64bit downloads of the minimal ISO seem to imply that the 64 bit is for AMD only... which one do i want to get? [17:51] Pici, Only Update Manager can? [17:51] Pici: sorry, didnt mean to [17:51] sketchyd: try sudo apt-get purge mysql [17:51] bastidrazor, http://paste.ubuntu.com/236941/ [17:51] how can i add a user that cannot edit or delete files? [17:51] ShockValue: It is called AMD64 since the specification was created by AMD. [17:51] shockvalue go with the 64 bit [17:51] Alvinware: Yes. [17:52] ShockValue, AMD64 is for any 64 bit processor [17:52] Ok, thanks everyone [17:52] ganesh - is there a way to confirm that worked? [17:52] yup works fine on intel [17:52] ganesh, that's really vague. Address it to everyone in the room and be more specific please. [17:52] when a script is being run, i'd like a INOFITY message to pop up. is there like a single line i can put into my script to that message pops up?

[17:54] the purge option should remove all the config files tho? [17:54] bastidrazor, it will also remove samba-common smbclient ubuntu-desktop winbind <-- is this ok? [17:54] r3dbranch - i tried running your command, and it tried to install mysql again - it said it was not fully installed or removed, and tried to set it up again [17:54] mataks, samba-common is the wrong version.. i'm not even sure how you got it. but yes you can reinstall those packages after removing samba-common [17:55] r3dbranch - this one: sudo apt-get --purge remove mysql-server [17:55] hello :) what's a decent Twitter client for Linux? :) [17:55] Pici, Ubuntu can't display .gif file properly (The .gif file was not animating).

[17:58] bastidrazor, yehey thnx. i can install samba now.. should i install back the file that has been remove along with the samba-common?

[18:00] ok, synaptic seemed to work [18:01] do a locate again [18:01] anyone has a advice for a decent Twitter client for Linux? :) [18:01] mozilla [18:01] cellofellow, gartral Any other recommendations for VNC software that might already be in the repos? [18:01] beeman_nl: deskbar is good for posting [18:01] beeman_nl, prism-twitter ? maybe [18:01] It should be in like an insert menu for the snippets [18:01] r3dbranch - still lots, but it looks like a lot of it is ruby gems and logs [18:01] beeman_nl: gwibber [18:01] ugg ruby :P [18:02] cellofellow, I'm looking at the help docs, I was just looking for opinions as to quality/usefulness.

[18:02] prolly just ruby bindings for mysql [18:02] beeman_nl - take your pick http://www.sizlopedia.com/2008/05/03/twitter-clients-for-ubuntu-linux/ [18:02] how should the entry in sudoers be to allow [18:02] sudo -u user -g group command [18:02] where group is a secondary group for user? [18:02] also, can i wipe the etc/mysql folder now? [18:02] unperson: it's based on X, SSH, and an advanced compression algorithm. It's simply designed from the ground up to be secure and fast, unlike VNC. [18:02] Why does control+alt+backspace/delete not log me out to GDM? [18:02] and how do I do so from the cli?

The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. [18:04] I need some help [18:04] plus something that mentions the sock [18:04] conlin: yeah whatsup [18:04] how do I enable my mic on ubuntu [18:04] and a logger [18:04] Is this a free chat [18:04] !enter [18:04] Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

Thank you very much :) [18:45] masquerade: I think that blog was right, if you don't explicitly set a port it defaults to 5900, I think I had to use 5901 for some reason, so 5900 is the default, but once vnc is running youc an use that netstat command to verify exactly what port it is [18:45] hey guys I tried to play with Keryx for my offline xubuntu machine but I was having major problems with getting the python package dependencies versioning probs with them.

[18:51] can't seem to get my microphone to work. Never used it before but getting no response as far as I can tell. Halp! [18:51] Dulak: i can see the screen, but it doesnt react on clicks [18:51] can ne1 help? [18:51] speedxxxcore: maybe, if you have enough of the stuff in RAM already [18:51] Isn't hand editing xorg.conf supposed to be avoided now that HAL has control? [18:51] darren: with what? [18:52] sebsebseb: I got 2GB ram? [18:52] sebsebseb: failed to pin front buffer: cannot allocate memory is a really annoying error [18:52] Zencyde: HAL is actsaully on the verge of being replaced by something else [18:52] getting Kino or Kdenlive to work with my DV camera sebsebseb [18:52] sebsebseb: Oh? Care to expand? [18:52] masquerade: I read something about that a couple weeks ago... let me see if I can find it [18:52] Thanks all. Bye for now. Happy Ubuntuing :) [18:52] Dulak: okay, thanks [18:53] Zencyde: not in here, but they probably can in #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu+1 which is currently the karmic channal [18:53] sebsebseb: Thanks. :) [18:53] little microphone help when someone gets a chance [18:53] i need a lightweight mail client please, that supports POP3, SMTP, IMAP, and that includes an address book ! [18:53] masquerade: is the cursor a dot or an arrow? [18:54] Is there somebody good at php? [18:54] Danny - anything particular? [18:54] poc: #php [18:54] Dulak: the usual mouse icon. you know, i am trying to connect over jaadu on an iPhone [18:54] i understand from some googling that there are issues with raw1394 and dv1394 with Kino and kdenlive. not being an expert I'm really stuck [18:54] pupuser: yeah..I can't get any sound to record [18:54] I can't join it. [18:54] poc: it's ##php [18:54] otherwise sound devices seem to work ok [18:54] masquerade: you can move the pointer but not click on anything? [18:54] Dulak: exactly [18:54] You may find you need to add extra controls to the volume control (preferences). E.g. some for microphone sense or microphone switch, another for microphone input boost, as well as the ever joyous remembering to select the microphone as the RECORDING input? [18:54] can anyone help me with spoofing my ppp0 address, i change my ip with ifconfig, but i lose connectivity as the packets dont come back to the spoofed address i think.. [18:55] masquerade: that seems to be a common problem, it has something to do with the mouse you are using, some mice cause this behavior for no apparent reason [18:55] poc: to join ##php you need to be identified to services, ie have a registered account [18:55] masquerade: so you're using the iphone and tappign to click right? [18:55] poc: Take a look at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup to see how to setup 'the freenode way' :) [18:55] Pupuser402-1: is there a way to see a graphical sound bar so I can see when I hit the right switch? [18:55] Dulak: the client mouse or server mouse [18:55] danny - my advice is just general... I think someone else better offer you proper advice... Ermm.. You know... I am pretty sure their is ... [18:55] is there a terminal command I can issue to see what's connect to my firewire port [18:55] Dulak: a tap is a normal (left) click, double tap right click [18:55] I think we need to get a proper expert on this for you... [18:55] Thank you [18:56] Pupuser402-1: thanks anyway.. [18:56] masquerade: i'm not entirely sure, I just read some emails on the vnc list about it, I don't have the problem myself [18:56] ... but if you go into the preferences or properties for the volume control / mixer or sound card device... under I think it is... "Recording" their should be VU meter showing the input level...?

Just odd how it sees the wireless nic but not the eth [19:20] danhs: not aware of such a thing. I do know you can tell it to perform automatic backups [19:20] evening all [19:20] kickboxer: oh man cool searchengine, thanks for enlightening me.. [19:20] hmmm [19:20] @ maverick ...u r welcome dude [19:20] SHUT UR FACE [19:20] FUCKER [19:20] maverick: even if I didnt have an active connection, shouldnt eth0 information populate with ifconfig?

[19:21] @ NewHandFromCN ... rightly said [19:21] what is the IMAP server directory ? [19:22] Hey.. just wondering what everyone uses for the web host? I have been using MediaTemple for years but will be doing small project where 20$ a month isnt really necessary. Anyone have any suggestions? [19:22] danhs: no, but I spent a good deal of time choosing the right ignores at first. I don't even use the same distro ;) [19:22] maverick: assuming it is, wouldnt I need an active connection to download the driver? [19:22] maverick, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=271779 ,the last post might be why u can't connect properly [19:22] jrib: also, if I forget to sync before I leave home or leave work for the day.... [19:22] :-p [19:22] DougM, if it is really small, run it from gome [19:22] home* [19:22] kickBoxer: i think it should not prevent from login , for something like gnome-keyring [19:22] DougM: Apache server ! [19:23] hoss: yea, but you can download the driver from an active net connection and transfer it by some media, then install it [19:23] @ NewHandFromCN ... i do think the same [19:23] maverick: word, thanks [19:23] I run my server from home. Really wish it had some lights in the front, so I can look at it to see if it is down, rather than wait for someone to complain [19:23] danhs: but if you are just syncing your home, hardware shouldn't be an issue at all. I can only think of a handful of files that you would have to ignore [19:23] mk13: thanks checking it out [19:23] jrib: true [19:23] siema [19:23] kickBoxer: :D [19:23] what is the IMAP server directory ?

It doesnt seem to see the ethernet port, does anyone know how I can get it to work? [19:24] Hoss, if you figure out the drivers you need, you can always download the .deb from another computer and transfer it via usb [19:24] mk13: oh, ive been through this thread before, and it does not seem of any use to me [19:24] tak polak a co?? [19:24] Bob_Dole is it hard to run your own server?

[19:28] SOB, found this on the forums - Ethernet card also doesn't work out of the box for D250. Download AR813X-linux-v1.0.0.8.tar.gz from http://partner.atheros.com/Drivers.aspx and install it manually. Ignore gzip warnings about "trailing garbage". [19:28] how do I disable the single USB port.Ubuntu machine, not all usb single or two.. [19:28] @ Alvinware ...dont do that...have sudo powers instead [19:28] Hey there, I'm having a major problem with the network connection manager. It erases my resolv.conf! [19:28] anyone here use intel 3945 wireless? [19:28] !root | Alvinware [19:28] Alvinware: 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 [19:29] what? [19:29] what do you want to know what ethernet adapter I have [19:29] er, why? [19:30] Alvinware: although there is a way to use sudo to get into the root account, you can then change the root password [19:30] Alvinware: sudo su - [19:30] kickboxer, in windows i can use the root/administrator account, and it's very convinience. [19:31] Alvinware: The Ubuntu way is to use sudo. Please see the page that ubottu linked to. [19:31] hi I'm using the live cd, but the cpu fan is running at 100%, can I change this anywhere? [19:31] Alvinware: Ubuntu isn't designed for users to need to log in as the root account [19:31] Hoss, have you figured out the ethernet adapter? [19:32] dury [19:32] Its just nice to know that you can get into the root account, if you really need it [19:32] AaronT125: you can use sudo to access root acount access [19:32] No one really crack the root password of Ubuntu yet? === jcdury is now known as dury [19:32] Alvinware: there is no password, the account is locked [19:32] is there anyplace where I can adjust cpu fan speed on the live cd [19:32] !rootshell [19:32] Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous) [19:32] ikonia: but you can access it if you want to [19:32] @ Alvinware ...thats personal choice dude...but i guess almost all linux people like it the way u work with sudo that gives root powers rather than using the root accoutn directly...

[19:33] MK13: No, but I found this artical suggesting to download a driver - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne [19:33] :) === _codeswing is now known as codeswing_ [19:33] What are some of the top dlna servers? ushare is now defunct, mini-dlna has slowed progress. [19:33] @ dury, hello [19:33] Alvinware: you don't have to "crack" the password, and if you really want to know how to access the root account, send me a PM [19:33] where can I find the kernel panic log? [19:34] how do I disable the USB port.Ubuntu machine, not all usb single or two.. [19:34] edbian: my hdd died, so im using the livecd but the cpu fan is running 100% and I dont want it to burn out [19:34] ikonia: lets just say, that something goes wrong with the default user account, it would be nice to be able to get into the root account to add a new user [19:34] ikonia, in other distribution of Linux, i think that i'm able to use the root account, Fedora Core. [19:34] wojciech: panics log to screen === codeswing_ is now known as _codeswing [19:34] kickAss is there? [19:34] AaronT125: that's what single user mode is for [19:34] cdenny: why will it die from running at 100%? is it an old fan? [19:34] cdenny: Are you sure it's the cpu fan and not the disk spinning? [19:34] Alvinware: there is sudo [19:34] two usb [19:34] Hoss, i thought acer computers usually work well w/ ubuntu [19:34] Alvinware: yes, orther distros don't lock the password [19:34] Greetings, on an ubuntu 9.04 install with ICH9 82801I and no sound from speakers, but audio on headphones works well. Notebook is a HP ProBook4510s. Any ideas appreciated. === h is now known as Guest11373 [19:34] who is kickAss? @ dury [19:34] edbian: no its the fan, artic cooler pro. its really loud, more of an annoyance than anything [19:35] ikonia: i'm just saying, its nice to have access to the root account if you need it, i prefer to use sudo though [19:35] cdenny: Well it's not going to burn out immediately. Technically speaking it can run at 100% power for a while. [19:35] edbian is there anyplace where I can see the cpu temp? [19:35] @ laxman ....write clearly the problem u r facing? [19:35] cdenny: cdenny cpufreq-select maybe? [19:35] AaronT125: that's what single user mode is and you can access the root account through sudo [19:36] cdenny: There should be something in /proc to set the cpu speed. You could also try booting with the "noapic" option on [19:36] i think something very bad happened to the computer last night and i just want to make sure something isnt killing itself [19:36] cdenny, acpi -Vf [19:36] hi guys, I have a question about w3m. It can display images in my xterm, but not in urxvt, anybody knows why? thx! [19:36] @ AaronT125 ....i guess its the same for ~ all linux users [19:36] ikonia: kk i don't wanna turn this into an arguement [19:36] AaronT125: it's not an argument [19:36] cdenny: The best play to check the cpu temp is in the bios. There are some apps that allow you to see it. I have never used one of them. [19:36] cdenny: lmsensors is the name of one I think [19:36] !lm-sensors [19:36] To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. [19:36] ikonia: ok soz [19:36] eeecontrol works for me [19:37] kickBoxer: maybe is you with different nick.... who knows [19:37] hey all. anyone know if there is an apt-get avilable for the new pidgin app ? [19:37] thats the problem, i cant install anything because its the livecd and the hdd must have died or something, they arent showing up anywhere [19:37] !eeecontrol [19:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about eeecontrol [19:37] or do i have to compile to code myself ? [19:37] !eee-control [19:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about eee-control [19:37] MK13: as did I. [19:37] dury: Please use /whois and/or tab-complete to see if someone is in the channel instead of asking here. [19:37] @ dury...i dint get what are u talking about [19:37] dragonlinux: you mean pidgin or a particular version? [19:37] arrrgh, sound is getting on my nerves, I'm running AMD64 Ubuntu Jaunty, and have been for a while, now all of the sudden, it is not working! [19:38] frogzoo, well the new version 2.5.8 that has the yahoo fixes in it [19:38] dragonlinux: pidgin is in ubuntu by default [19:38] can someone please tell me how to download movies in ubuntu [19:38] Pici: you right... really sorry [19:38] in which file can I find kernel panic log? [19:38] Must have been some update or something, I tried following a few of the guides in the forums, and nothing helps [19:38] wojciech: it doesn't log, it logs to screen [19:38] edbian, true, but the default version is 2.5.5 which is broken for yahoo [19:38] tamuka: Do you mean bit torrents? [19:38] sorry channel [19:38] yes [19:38] im just going to shut it down [19:38] my company asking can you disable usb port in all machines ...some pc's keyboard and mouse also usb,how do i disable the usb [19:39] anyone know how to give users permissions to use sched_setscheduler in a c program? [19:39] laxman: most likely in BIOS [19:39] dragonlinux: I don't think there is a version that will work with yahoo yet. Yahoo switched their servers or something about 1 month ago. Open source community is still catching up. [19:39] jgoppert: check ##c [19:39] laxman: Yes, turn of your "usb controllers" in the bios [19:40] edbian, on the pigin.im front page, they say in the latest, 2.5.8, the yahoo problem is fixed [19:40] plz tell me which software should i use for virtualization [19:40] im just asking what the easiest way to get that verison on ubuntu is [19:40] !virtualization [19:40] There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !kvm is the preferred approach in Ubuntu. See also !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications [19:40] dragonlinux: I suggest you download that version from their site. Hopefully they offer a .deb! [19:40] at the ubuntu boot screen there was an option to install ubuntu without making any changes to the computer... i chose that option and now i am at a login prompt [19:40] but i never created a username or password [19:40] dragonlinux, i guess not...m still facing that prob [19:40] !cedega [19:40] cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega [19:41] cheetahw26: it should be your old username/password [19:41] dragonlinux: Either they have a .deb and you can practically just double click it or it's .tar.gz (source code) and you'll have to compile by hand. [19:41] anyone know how to give users permissions to run sched_setscheduler in a c program without requiring root user? [19:41] !kvm [19:41] kvm is the preferred virtualization approach in Ubuntu. For more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM [19:41] i never had one to begin with... [19:41] first time installing [19:41] cheetahw26: it asked you for a username/password combination at install time then [19:41] okey @ cheetahw26 ....whats the issue, btw? [19:41] cheetahw26: what about leaving it empty? just pressing enter? [19:41] jgoppert, /j #c or ##c [19:42] thanks [19:42] i can't change cursor theme in jaunty without restart or logout [19:42] i tried that just get error reading; incorrect username or password.. letters must be in correct case [19:42] is there any way [19:42] pratik_narain: It's a compiz bug. [19:42] will microsoft absorb yahoo? [19:42] cheetah, try username:ubuntu, and leave password blank [19:42] dury: that's not for this channel [19:42] problem.. never created a uname or passwd, yet prompted for one.. [19:42] edbian, it seems there is no .deb on their ssite. i thinkill be stuck compiliing it [19:42] dury: no, they're gonna form an alliance and pwn google [19:42] pratik_narain: Turn compiz off, change your cursor as many times as you'd like ;) turn compiz back on. [19:42] cheetahw26, try username:ubuntu, and leave password blank [19:42] dragonlinux: No big deal! [19:42] cheetahw26: at the install there is a section to set a username and password, you must have missed it [19:42] no off-topic gossips please! [19:43] i'll just restart... i tried normal install but it failed.. so maybe [19:43] Get the .tar.gz and extract it somewhere that you can work with (I like to use the desktop [19:43] tried= ubuntu passwd- blank... no deal [19:43] cheetahw26: at the install there is a section to set a username and password, you must have missed it [19:43] i never got to any install ... just loaded and booted right to here [19:43] Does abybody know if Firefox 3.5 show up in jaunty-backports? [19:43] edbian: but after turining on compiz again, i have to reconfigure in the ccsm. [19:43] cheetahw26: are you on the desktop now ? [19:43] when trying to install... how can i install in text-only mode? [19:43] cheetahw26, do you mean you booted from the live cd? [19:43] missed a word... [19:43] @ login prompt now [19:43] ikonia: probably not xD [19:43] cheetahw26: reboot, "check the cd for defects" [19:43] cheetahw26, then its livecd right [19:43] is there any alternatives to pulse audio? [19:44] downloaded .iso from site... not livecd .. [19:44] cheetahw26: you need to boot from the livecd [19:44] or not minimum livecd anyway [19:44] shane2peru, quite a lot dude.... [19:44] cheetahw26: the desktop cd is a live cd and install cd [19:44] kickBoxer: what are the easiest/best to use? [19:44] pratik_narain: If you use the System -> Preferences -> Appearnce -> Desktop Effects dialog then yes. If you use "compiz--replace&" in a terminal then you don't have to reconfigure it. [19:44] cheetahw26: boot from the livecd and select "install" [19:44] cheetahw26, if you selected "try ubuntu without any change to computer" at the boot up, then it is the live cd [19:44] ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso [19:44] kickBoxer: pulseaudio is really getting on my nerves [19:44] cheetahw26: reboot, "check the cd for defects" [19:44] cheetahw26: burn that to a disk and boot from it [19:44] ok will do ... [19:45] has anyone got flash player running in opera? [19:45] thats what i am doing... [19:45] shane2peru, what s the issue with pulse audio? [19:45] maverick: yeah me [19:45] cheetahw26: ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso is a liveCD [19:45] !who | cheetahw26 [19:45] cheetahw26: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [19:45] cheetahw26: ok - so the livecd will boot you into the desktop [19:45] Dashkal, sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 [19:45] defrysk: ahh, danke [19:45] cube: libflashplayer.so trick dosent work for me, it works a bit but output is crappy [19:45] kickBoxer: my sound disappeared for no apparent reason, it isn't muted either, I went through a few of the sound fixes on the forums [19:45] cheetahw26: from that desktop you can then click "install" [19:45] What does it require of me to switch from compiz to fluxbox (and back if i don't like it) [19:45] when i give disable permission for BIOS, all usb also disable [19:45] kickBoxer: I have been using it fine for several months, and now it decides to blow up in my face [19:45] Dashkal, it will be named shirekoto [19:45] !ikonia ok will do [19:45] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [19:46] eyboard, mouse usb device [19:46] shane2peru, r u on 9.04? [19:46] kickBoxer: yep, 64AMD [19:46] Viliny: install the fluxbox package. Then at the login screen, the "options" button lets you choose which to use [19:46] laxman: do you want to disable all USB, or all USB except the mouse and keyboard? [19:46] ah well thats easy, thank you [19:46] kickBoxer: with intel card 82801G [19:46] What tool can I use to adjust my webcam settings, whether it be brightness, quality, contract, etc. I'm streaming at the moment and noticed everything is too bright, thats why I ask [19:46] ikonia: you right... by the way... can grub boot loader be able to boot the last linux kernel image that is updated... if there is not grub when you turn on the computer [19:46] defrysk: ok, that's a random name, but I assume it's just to avoid conflict with the normal fx package? [19:46] yes [19:46] dury: if there is no grub - grub can't boot anything [19:47] kk, nothing an alias can't fix. thanks for the heads up [19:47] Condoulo, try cheese [19:47] dury: if there is grub - it can boot any kernel you have installed [19:47] Debian minimal or Debian LAMP, which one is best for a server? [19:47] kickBoxer: ok, be back in a bit, I will leave this open, if you can reccomend a few alternatives, I will look into them. [19:47] ikonia: right I see [19:47] maverick: cool [19:47] Evet: not ontopic for this channel [19:47] Evet: ask in #debian [19:47] kickBoxer: or even a fix, but I have been through a few of them. [19:47] When I'm SSH'd in, I understand how to use X forwarding to display X processes on my local display, but how can I display one on *BOTH* the local display and the server display? [19:48] cube: so can you help me get a better output? [19:48] shane2peru, ...fine [19:48] TwoToneSpirit: doesn't work like that, it binds to 1 X display [19:48] ikonia: So there's no way short of sharing the full screen with VNC? That's too bad. [19:48] TwoToneSpirit: there are tools for moving from one display to another but ive not used them [19:48] TwoToneSpirit: you can share a display with vnc - no problem [19:49] TwoToneSpirit: but then you only put X on one display and vnc shares the desktop [19:49] tel me [19:49] defrysk, anything I can use while streaming [19:49] ikonia: But what if the server doesn't want to share the whole desktop? [19:49] laxman: tell you what ? [19:49] TwoToneSpirit: why would it not want to ? [19:49] pepperjack: Can you suggest one? I've been looking for a while. [19:49] ikonia: would you drive me to recovery the grub with the last kernel is being updated, please. If you have time, please? [19:49] wenas [19:50] ikonia: For example, they might be doing other things that they don't want to share with the group (email, etc.) but they want to share a Geany or Gedit to code together [19:50] TwoToneSpirit: then you can't do it - that's not sharing the desktop [19:50] dury: boot so you get grub prompt, then select the kernel you want to use from the menu [19:50] ikonia: Yeah, I totally understand that VNC won't do that - it's not its purpose. But is there no way at all? [19:50] <[t0rc]> Should this generate RSA keys, not DSA? (https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html#openssh-keys) [19:50] tel me,except keyboard and mouse, disable all usb ports [19:51] WOOT, looks like it took the ethernet drivers! [19:51] is LAMP better than installing manually? [19:51] Hello guyz, i think any of HAL or DBUS is not working fine on my laptop.... since none of the devices can be mounted... battery is also not visible....i'm using kubuntu jaunty, btw [19:51] TwoToneSpirit: you need to find some sort of desktop sharing software, look at webex [19:51] cube: about that flash player? [19:51] Evet: please ask in #debian [19:51] maverick: hmm im afraid im not [19:51] TwoToneSpirit: dunno. ive seen people mention em. like a screen kinda equivalent for X [19:51] laxman: that's going to be quite tricky due to usb ports normally sharing one bus, so you have to have all or none [19:52] edbian: but even this does not change the cursor theme [19:52] cube, ok nvm.. [19:52] edbian: should I stop using compiz altogether [19:52] can anyone else who actually wants to help get me to get swf working in opera.. [19:52] maverick: there are instructions on the opera site === baskingshark is now known as paul68 [19:52] xd [19:53] Hi everybody, I did an distribution upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 under Virtualbox 3.0. I can't get my x-server to work again, can't seem to figure out why, it has something to do with incorrect drivers i guess [19:53] what is the difference between wpa2 and wps? [19:53] i used to using french , [19:53] laxman: may be it can be done by blacklisting usb_storage kernel module. but i'm not 100% sure... [19:53] Schonhose: try setting the xorg driver to vesa first of all [19:53] paul68: different wirless encryption [19:54] but i want to change back to chinese [19:54] how to change my locale [19:54] Schonhose: that will only stop the ports being used for storage devices [19:54] when i login , it is default french [19:54] Schonhose: sorry - not for you [19:54] how can I be sure that HAL is working fine? [19:54] i just change it for test [19:54] laxman: that if you want to block flashdisk users, i think [19:54] ikonia: ok do you know a site where I can find more detailed info about it ? [19:54] but now i can not change back to chinese [19:55] paul68: I'm sure google will show some [19:55] every time i login , it is defaut to frech [19:55] ok, any software I can use to adjust video quality, brightness, etc. WHILE I'm streaming using flash player. [19:55] Condoulo: flash player is normally quite limited on linux platforms [19:55] ikonia: well it just shows a bit of info but not in detail but will check google out once more [19:56] Where does dirsrv keep its database? [19:56] ikonia: thanks.. [19:56] jrib, where exactly do i get the option to switch window managers? [19:56] ikonia, well, I've got my webcam working on it - I just want something that I can adjust the brightness and stuff like that with without it requiring an extra monitoring tool (Since I can already see the output on the flash tool.) [19:57] anyone use Flock before? [19:57] can someone help me with my wireless? When downloading a large file, it stops working. Still has great stignal and connected. [19:57] how do you set the default mail client in gnome? When I click on submit at http://service.felk.cvut.cz/vlsi/prj/BOOM/download.html it tries to load evolution, which is annoying [19:57] se7en, yes, I have. [19:57] ikonia: VESA is not anywhere on the list when i use dpkg -reconfigure [19:57] Schonhose: configure it manually [19:57] freysteinn: look in /var/lib/dirsrv [19:58] vi xorg.conf in /etc/X11? [19:58] Schonhose: yes [19:58] ikonia: what are the settings I need to use? [19:59] Schonhose: in the confdigured video device section, set Driver "vesa" [19:59] I just installed fluxbox in the package manager, how do i start ubuntu with it? Sessions has fluxbox listed alongside gnome and other things. [19:59] christopher: do you remain connected to your router ? [20:00] My Ubuntu installation does not seem to detect MicroSD USB Adapters. Any reason why? [20:00] Condoulo: What are you thoughts on it compared to other browsers? [20:00] joeyeye: it says i'm still connected [20:00] nevermind, i got fluxbox running [20:00] christopher: and you can ping the router ? [20:00] Viliny when you log out and log back in, you choose what UI you want to load by changing it at the login window. [20:00] se7en, meh. Its ok if you're doing a lot of social stuff, such as Facebook blogging, etc. But, I myself just stick to Firefox. [20:00] anyone else have a laptop with keyboard lights, and they dont work when you use ubuntu? [20:00] cool [20:01] good to know.. [20:01] any good looking quality media players for linux to play mp3s etc? [20:01] christopher: what wireless driver are you using ? [20:01] ikonia: still unable to get it working, besides i can even get the output that i used to get [20:02] join #firefox [20:02] server_side, kde users like amarok, me gnome user likes rhythmbox but there are several to choose from [20:02] maverick: you need to follow the instructions on the website [20:02] ikonia: gdmsetup still returns cannot open display [20:03] don't use gdm setup - why are you not launching x? [20:03] how do I change the default mail client? [20:04] lessshaste, system, prefs , preferred apps [20:04] Hello, I just upgraded to jaunty jackalope and my boot process stops at 'activating swapfile swap' ctrl alt del bypasses it and boot continues, is there a fix? [20:04] defrysk, rythym box nice gui? [20:05] Did you make sure to install a swap partition? [20:05] ikonia: x is working, but no mouse and no keyboard [20:05] distinctblur:, did you add a swap partition to the drive? [20:05] Schonhose: so why are you trying to use an x application like gdm setup ? [20:05] joeyeye: sorry i'm back happened again [20:05] Used the upgrade feature from Update Manager. [20:05] server_side, for me its fine, others like banshee [20:05] How can I be sure that Ubuntu doesn't contain any remote exploitable malitious code? What if it's designed to snoop on people? [20:05] well, the vesa only works for me in 800*600 [20:05] Didn't make any other changes. [20:05] christopher: what wireless driver are you using ? [20:05] <[t0rc]> Keiffer, read the source code yourself. [20:05] defrysk, thanks.. how would you set that to gmail? [20:06] iwl 3945 [20:06] it's what ubuntu started using [20:06] christopher: and network manager ? [20:06] lessshaste, you mean in your browser ? [20:06] distinctblur, I would recommend doing a fresh install and making sure it adds the swap partition [20:06] Keiffer, of course ubuntu contains remote exploitable malicious code, that's what it was designed for! [20:06] joeyeye: the standard network manager with ubuntu [20:06] The swap partition should come up in Partition Manager as SDA3 or HDA3 [20:06] everyone knows linux was just designed for hackers to hack eachother and bring down world governments [20:06] anyone else have a laptop with keyboard lights, and they dont work when you use ubuntu? [20:06] Teclys: don't be silly please [20:06] christopher: do you use WEP/WPA ? [20:07] sorry [20:07] joeyeye: i'm also going to add that it happens on an unsecure network also [20:07] << defrysk, hmm. whatever controls what happens when I click on submit here http://service.felk.cvut.cz/vlsi/prj/BOOM/download.html [20:07] hi [20:07] cibailancau! [20:07] hi, im getting a really annoying bug trying to install mysql - dpkg: error processing mysql-server-5.0 (--configure): [20:07] subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 [20:07] [t0rc], I don't knoe coding. [20:07] christopher: even still - grep through syslog for wpa_supplicant lines/errors [20:07] any idea how to fix? [20:07] Erm, no it's not there. /sda3 is my system volume [20:07] Teclys, exactly what I supposed [20:08] Does it specify a swap partition in any of those? [20:08] anyone wanna b my friend [20:08] <[t0rc]> Keiffer, Learn. [20:08] christopher: sounds to me like your network is disassociating/reassociating [20:08] punkrockergul: this is an ubuntu support channel, not a chat channel, please visit freenode.org to see freenode channel list [20:08] hi [20:08] lol ok [20:08] [t0rc], i what, the next 40 yrs? and what languages to learn? [20:08] where in fluxbox can i connect to a wlan ap? [20:08] ikonia: i tried taken you aside this channel [20:08] im used to the tool where i can just pick an ap [20:08] joeyeye: how would i fix that [20:09] otacon122, no couple NTFS volumes for my windows partition, then the ubuntu partition, that's it. [20:09] Schonhose: best to chat it the channel [20:09] !ot > punkrockergul [20:09] punkrockergul, please see my private message [20:09] christopher: are you on jaunty ? [20:09] lessshaste, http://www.addictivetips.com/internet-tips/easiest-way-to-set-gmail-as-default-firefox-3-mail-client/ is probably what you need [20:09] joeyeye: yes, 9.04 [20:09] has anyone had any problems with apt-get not locating packages from a school network? [20:09] defrysk, thanks :) [20:09] distinctblur, there's your problem. When you upgraded Ubuntu, it did not create a swap partition. Your only solution is to do a clean install [20:09] And make sure it adds the swap partition [20:09] lessshaste, thank google ;) [20:09] Teclys: just tell us your problem [20:09] christopher: i had lots of this kind of problem with the regular network manager, so I replaced it with wicd [20:10] I need a pulse audio alternative [20:10] joeyeye: wicd? [20:10] pulse audio is not working for me. [20:10] christopher: yes - sudo apt-get install wicd [20:10] defrysk, http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/set-gmail-as-default-mail-client-in-ubuntu/ worked for me [20:10] Teclys: I'm here [20:10] otacon122, distinctblur what about using the live cd to shrink the existing partition and create a swap partition ? [20:10] If I reinstall, and point the /home to be mounted to the partition I have already laid out (with all of my files) as home will it overwrite it, or just assign my home to be that directory, and change the permissions automatically? [20:10] shane2peru, try oss4, or uninstall pulseaudio, it defaults to alsa then [20:10] christopher: it will replace networkmanager applet [20:10] I have tried the fixes on the forums, but not found a solution [20:11] Assuming I use the same username. [20:11] Elep, as long as you don't tell it to format you should be safe [20:11] Ok, thanks Halitech [20:11] defrysk: I can just remove pulse audio! great! that would be my best solution I think [20:11] Halitech, he said he upgraded from an older version of Ubuntu using the upgrade feature [20:11] does msn messenger in ubuntu has th voice feature plz? [20:11] defrysk: thanks for the Infamous_Cow [20:11] defrysk: thanks for the info [20:11] purkrockergul, I'm afraid not, I'm sorry. [20:11] heh [20:12] Halitech, I do not think he has a live CD [20:12] otacon122, should still have a swap paprtition then and might just need to edit fstab to get it to work [20:12] <[t0rc]> Keiffer, 40 years to learn how to code? no. To code well, maybe. Learn C/C++, Python, Java. First one will be the hardest. [20:12] defrysk: I'm familiar with oss4, and use that on my laptop, but don't want to go that route if I can stick to alsa [20:12] <[t0rc]> Keiffer, might take you 40 years though to read through all the ubuntu code. === sketchyd is now known as sketchyd_ [20:12] distinctblur, how did you upgrade and do you have a live cd? [20:12] quick question. i want to change label of my fat32 USB drive. how do i do this? [20:12] shane2peru, alsa should work fine yes [20:13] defrysk: thanks [20:13] Halitech, sorry, I'm still too new to Linux to figure this stuff out. I started with Jaunty back in late May [20:13] Viliny: fluxbox does not have a network-manager you need to install one or configure it from cli [20:13] fornix: you'll need either ntfstools or similar [20:13] shane2peru, good luck [20:13] Hi .. I just installed asterisk on 9.04 from synaptic - it runs but where is the "password" for asterisk user ? you can't su to it .. files have be modified by root -- the example of /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf says use manager -- manager read.me says read doc .. and there is no doc example of how to set the password! anyone! [20:13] joeyeye: for a fat32 drive? ntfstools? [20:13] !linuxmint [20:13] Sorry, I don't know anything about linuxmint [20:13] [t0rc], you guys all know to code? [20:14] otacon122, ok, I started with 5.10 and used it up to 8.04 and then moved to Debian [20:14] joeyeye: I just installed wcid and rebooted [20:14] ctmjr, what would the name be for one? any idea? [20:14] Halitech, before Jaunty, I was a Windows sheep. Been a Windows fanboy since Windows 3.1 days [20:14] <[t0rc]> Keiffer, I imagine most of the people in here know how to code [20:14] is there a way to test if a port is open to my machine from the command line? [20:14] Viliny: some people like wicd [20:15] hi there all again [20:15] otacon122, been there, started with DOS6 [20:15] hi . anyone with asterisk knowhow [20:15] okay, i can install that in compiz at it shows in fluxbox as well right? [20:15] joeyeye: is there a way I can check to make sure it wont happen again? [20:15] Beginning around the start of June, I started using Jaunty full time and never looked back [20:15] If I have a console cable connected to a NAS device how do I connect to the device in Ubuntu? [20:15] christopher: did you grep through syslog for wpa_supplicant ? [20:15] Only thing I miss is being able to play my Windows-based games, none of which work in WINE [20:15] fornix: or mlable [20:15] fornix: or mlabel [20:15] which ones are those otacon? [20:15] <[t0rc]> otacon122, then dual boot. There is no perfect OS. [20:15] otacon122, was never a gamer so didn't miss that at all [20:15] joeyeye: grep through syslog for wpa_supplicant? [20:16] brb [20:16] christopher: yes [20:16] Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, Far Cry, and many older DirectX7 games [20:16] Is it possible to change Ubuntu to Xubuntu easily or do I have to burn a new disc? [20:16] joeyeye: i couldn't find mlabel. which package does it come with? [20:16] otacon122: what about it ? [20:16] <[t0rc]> otacon122, again I say, then dual boot. There is no perfect OS. [20:16] joeyeye: how do i do that? i'm fairly new to linux [20:16] fornix: or mtools I think [20:17] jerald, install xubuntu-desktop [20:17] none of those work in wine? [20:17] ikonia, none of these games have OpenGL compatibility [20:17] !purexfce > jerald .. this is to have xubuntu only [20:17] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:17] sudo passwd root --> To change the root password. [20:17] otacon122: windows games = windows OS [20:17] christopher: zgreg wpa_supplicant /var/log/syslog [20:17] jerald: sudo apt-get install xfce [20:17] christopher: zgrep wpa_supplicant /var/log/syslog [20:17] I'm slowly weaning myself off the Windows games, though, with Warzone 2100 === logan is now known as Guest20864 [20:18] joeyeye: what do i do after running that? it didnt show anything [20:19] jerald, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop [20:19] Halitech, thanks [20:19] sudo passwd root --> To change the root password. [20:19] I kinda like having every piece of software I could ever want for free...Cost me too damn much to keep myself happy in Windows [20:19] coleys: why do you keep saying that ? [20:19] how many member nfs file share accessing,how do i identify ,i mean how many user accessing [20:19] ikonia: Why not...? [20:20] now for the hard stuff: where in fluxbox do you change the wallpaper? [20:20] jerald, if you want to get a 'pure' install, follow the instructions here http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce [20:20] hi, got an issue installing mysql - dpkg: error processing mysql-server-5.0 (--configure) [20:20] coleys: no -one is asking for it and it's not something ubuntu suggests randomly [20:20] anyone know how i can fix that? [20:20] christopher: use zgrep -i (for case insensitive...) [20:20] coleys: please stop unless someone has a very specific need for it [20:20] Halitech, whats a pure install, to where its not Ubuntu but XUbuntu? [20:20] ok, I've got a better question: Anything like web-cam-max for Ubuntu? [20:20] (for streaming) [20:20] For all of these games questions, surprised no one is mentioning Codeweavers crossover Games - lots of new Steam support (though I'm only dual-booting and need to test!) [20:20] sketchyd_ did you config it ? [20:20] how do i do that? [20:20] ikonia: I suggest it, and Flannel gave me permission. If i'd offer support. So... =) [20:20] this is from the package manager [20:20] joeyeye: still didn't show anything [20:20] peterkim, Codeweavers requires a subscription, though, right? [20:21] christopher: search through syslog for other errors/warnings related to network/wireless [20:21] jerald, a pure install of xfce will remove all the apps that normally get installed with Ubuntu (Gnome) and leave you with just the apps from Xubuntu [20:21] i just selected mysql-server and install [20:21] dpkg --reconfigure mysql-server-5.0 ( on Terminal) [20:21] Condoulo: did you want the special effects or streaming capabilities? For streaming, there's videolan. [20:21] hi [20:21] Ok [20:21] thx helper, ill try that [20:21] sketchyd_ dpkg --reconfigure mysql-server-5.0 ( on Terminal) [20:21] coleys: flannel didn't tell you to randomly say it in the channel, it's not something #ubuntu recommends unless there is a very specific need for it, so please stop [20:21] sketchyd_ np [20:21] christopher: do you know what chipset your wireless card uses ? [20:21] where i can find Firewall settings? [20:21] unknown option [20:21] intel wireless 3945 abg [20:21] coleys, just because you can do something doesn't mean you should [20:21] joeyeye: intel wireless 3945 abg [20:21] ikonia: No, he did say I could say it, Check the logs, and enjoy, ubuntu doesn't recommend it, I do. [20:22] christopher: hang on [20:22] helper it says thats an unknown option [20:22] otacon122: Im not telling people to do it, they can change it if they wish. Up to them. [20:22] peterkirn, I'm just wanting something that can stream video but I can edit the settings at the same time (contract, exposure, etc.) I'm also wanting to stream to ustream.tv using it. [20:22] Condoulo: For special effects a la iChat, there's something else, but I forget what it's called! ;) Was just reading about it, too... MAY come back to me... [20:22] sketchyd_ try dpkg --configure [20:22] !root | coleys, [20:22] coleys,: 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 [20:22] coleys, changing the root password greatly affects the kernel's security [20:22] christopher: type "lsmod" and send me the output [20:22] Im not trying to guess the root password, I know how to change it. [20:23] otacon122: Give me three reasons why... ? [20:23] coleys, and the link at the end explains why Ubuntu doesn't use it [20:23] coleys: please check your private message window [20:23] Condoulo: videolan would be a good place to start, honestly. Darnit, I was just reading about this, there's definitely a way to intercept the stream and add effects. Or you can try some different drivers -- for instance, bunch of new settings just got rolled into the drivers for my PS3 Eye driver (OSS driver, no less) [20:23] joeyeye: can i past in channel? [20:23] christopher: paste in IM [20:23] christopher, nope [20:23] where i can find Firewall settings? [20:24] I've seen that before. Many times actually, its up to the user to decide to change it or not. Not ubuntu. [20:24] coleys: please stop talking about this and check your pm window [20:24] Leoneof iptables ? [20:24] Are there any virtual AI women available for ubunut? [20:24] wat [20:24] Keiffer: no - there is not [20:24] defrysk: well, that seemed to work like a charm, thanks! [20:24] o,o [20:24] !pastebin | christopher [20:24] christopher: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic [20:24] helper - new issue - /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-5.0.postinst: line 144: /etc/mysql/conf.d/old_passwords.cnf: No such file or directory [20:24] hi [20:24] helper: really i don't know, i just started to use Ubuntu [20:24] I had some for windows :( [20:25] otacon122: Yes, Codeweavers still requires a subscription for really good gaming support. On the other hand, I think they're a pretty responsible steward for WINE; i.e., they do give back a lot of work to the WINE project, as we've seen on the audio side, too. I don't like that some of this stuff is kept proprietary, but as a business model, it's at least interesting, and better for Linux than booting into Windows! (well, albeit not as [20:25] shane2peru, yw :) [20:25] ! egirl [20:25] Sorry, I don't know anything about egirl [20:25] Keiffer: there isn't any [20:25] Leoneof wooow need to read more about iptables Firewall or you can use any GUI application to modify [20:25] joeyeye: imed [20:25] is someone here, who can halp me getting a working mirkophone in skype with my sony vaio fw notebook? [20:25] joeyeye: you get the im? [20:25] i don't get it, what does crossover have over just using wine? [20:26] ! etoys [20:26] Sorry, I don't know anything about etoys [20:26] sketchyd_ try to remote it dpkg --purge mysql-server-5.0 and re-install it :) [20:26] when i upgraded to 9.04 the audio stopped to work. what should i do? [20:26] christopher: zgrep -i iwl3945 /var/log/syslog [20:26] helper: ok, thank you ^_^ [20:26] christopher: zgrep -i iwlcore /var/log/syslog [20:26] Viliny: Crossover *is* WINE, but basically tweaked for games with specific testing for titles and compatibility. And I think you can have them running simultaneously; need to test out all the implications. [20:27] joeyeye: nothing [20:27] is someone here, who can halp me getting a working mirkophone in skype with my sony vaio fw notebook? [20:27] so a wine specifically for that title? [20:27] wha does this mean when installing mysql - /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-5.0.postinst: line 144: /etc/mysql/conf.d/old_passwords.cnf: No such file or directory [20:27] christopher: huh... so network adapter is not reporting errors [20:27] joeyeye: it's weird [20:27] Viliny: No, you buy a license for CrossOver and get a version of WINE with better support for games. They've been adding to the title library lately, particularly the Steam titles and even some EA stuff. [20:27] sketchyd_ thid mean there is file missing which called: old_passwords.cnf (think it's config) [20:27] christopher: are you using wicd now? [20:28] what am i supposed to do? create it? [20:28] peterkirn, and this stuff isn't present in wine ? [20:28] kaaninlaubuheycibai, uall. [20:28] joeyeye: i am [20:28] peterkirn, so wine is wine and if you pay money you get a boosted version of wine? [20:28] joeyeye: http://paste.ubuntu.com/237193/ here is my syslog [20:28] Viliny: CrossOver includes some proprietary code (some of which I believe is necessary for game support). WINE is completely open source. And CrossOver's business model is basically to sell packaged versions of WINE for certain applications. [20:28] hello. If I switch harddrives and move them to another motherboard, how can I reload all network cards? [20:28] christopher: looking at it now [20:29] sketchyd_: it was just looking for passwords from an earlier install in case you were upgrading.. you can ignore it [20:29] can someone help me get my mp3 player connected to amarok? [20:29] natschil, I just installed a new nic and booted up and it worked [20:29] i cant ignore it bucky, its not installing [20:29] joeyeye: my router is a Linsys WRT110 wireless N [20:29] sketchyd_ try create this file [20:30] what should i do to diagnostic the not working audio? [20:30] christopher: lots of iwl3945 errors... [20:30] i know [20:30] joeyeye: just dont know how to fix them [20:31] christopher: I thought you said zgrep iwl3945 reported no errors... [20:31] Corporate Linux requirements are for what Distro? [20:31] sketchyd_: http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=626443 [20:31] joeyeye: it didn't show anything [20:32] christopher: nvm - let me look through it still [20:32] can someone help me with amarok [20:32] jet, what mp3 player? [20:32] why is there linux-image-generic and a linux-image-2.6.28-14-generic? [20:32] jaws kernel [20:32] do I need both files? [20:32] jaws: One's a virtual package that points to the other. [20:33] jaws i think these with the update right ? [20:33] hey all, I am looking for a nice color schemes that are easy on the eyes... been finding it hard to find a nice one... any suggestions on where to look? [20:33] jaws: So you need both. [20:33] jaws ya sure [20:33] any particular reason my fluxbox goes bonkers when i start nautilus? [20:33] halitech: cheap usb one. id like to connect it to amarok, but i dont know what to put in for a mount command [20:33] rogolmaksaleh punya ibu cibai. [20:33] thanks [20:33] Hi! I'm having problems trying to connect to GGZ Gaming Zone with all the gnome-games. Nothing happens...any ideas?? [20:33] i need to configure it first? [20:33] peterkirn, i see, thanks for taking the effort to explain it to me [20:34] jet, does it show up when you plug it in? [20:34] l [20:34] it mounts fine yes [20:35] jet, open amarok then go to tools - configure amarok [20:35] jet, sorry, settings -configure amarok [20:35] ok [20:35] christopher: the issue is with the microcode on the card itself, nothing to do with the ubuntu drivers [20:35] joeyeye: the microcode? [20:36] joeyeye: how do i fix it? put windows back on [20:36] jet, anything showing under media devices? [20:36] none [20:36] Okay, my videos used to play fine, now they have a low framerate and its annoying. I was told earlier to install VLC because totem is slow in general, and no difference any help? [20:36] I'm trying to work with ndiswrapper today and a USB wifi dongle from D-Link - combo has worked for me before, but my internal Intel wifi card (which is broken) seems to be conflicting. ndiswrapper sees the D-Link as present, but only wlan0 (Intel) shows up in iwconfig. === mitch is now known as Guest12430 [20:36] Irving: What codec? What video card? [20:37] jet, is it mounted right now? [20:37] christopher: yes - the network adapter has code on it - see if there's an update from Intel on their support website. It'll likely be a download of a floppy or CD image that you bott from and update the microcode [20:37] yeap [20:37] peterkim, did you disable the Intel card from the BIOS? [20:37] Eh don't know that. Ha. But i just wonder why it worked at one point and just stopped all of a sudden. [20:37] hello [20:37] peterkirn: is your broken internal Intel wifi card turned off in the bios? [20:37] peterkirn: can you turn the power off to the intel card? [20:37] christopher: or dell... as I see you are using a dell... [20:37] File type is .avi. [20:37] good bye [20:38] see your later [20:38] otacon122: Unless I'm missing something, that's my whole problem. BIOS will disable the whole card, but that would mean losing the Ethernet jack that IS working. ;) Previously I was able to set up ndiswrapper + proprietary D-Link driver as wlan1 instead of wlan0, but not so far under Jaunty. [20:38] Irving: Was this after an update? You might have to reenable your video card drivers. [20:38] Shoot_: see ya [20:38] and fuck your mother ;) === sale_ is now known as sale [20:38] jet, try the autodetect option [20:38] joeyeye: so i need to see about updating the firmware of the card itself [20:38] Yeah. Probably an update. [20:38] peterkim, is there a switch on the laptop that turns off the wireless? [20:38] doesnt work [20:39] mechtech: :D [20:39] I can see the videos. And when they are small they work pretty good, but when i try full screen it starts being really slow? [20:39] hey guys [20:39] I used to watch videos full screen all the time. [20:39] otacon122: No physical switch. That's the *other* part of my problem with this card/laptop. ;) Software switch no longer works. Hence the need for the USB port. I can try the semi-borked soft switch, though... [20:39] sonism: how goes the battle today? [20:39] Shadow admits me is more familiar to windows than ubuntu and waits for the heckles! [20:39] id [20:39] mech, fine [20:40] i get an error about daemons and hal and whatnot [20:40] im using terminator and my default working dir is set to / how can i set it to my home? [20:40] Shadow175: recent convert here too...no heckling [20:40] stuff i dont understand [20:40] otacon122: Is there not a way to force the USB card to mount as wlan1? [20:40] please. i've installed ubuntu by wubi, because i coudn't boot from cd. Then i've used 20 gb free space on disk. But now i want it to take all the partition, and kick out windows. How do i do that? [20:40] joeyeye: thanks for helping find the problem [20:40] Hi, I have a problem with the buildin cardreader of my acer aspire 9410. I am unable to mount my pro duo card. When I had windows, I could read the card. If I connect py laptop to my printer, i can mount the card with the printers cardreader. Somebody a clue [20:40] christopher: yes. maybe as a start... there's another few options. Is your router 11N enabled ? [20:40] ikonia: it has been fixed [20:40] thanks [20:40] joeyeye: 11N? [20:40] * otacon122 is a Linux transplant myself, so I know how you feel, shadow [20:41] christopher: 80211a/b/g/n ? [20:41] joeyeye: my router is brodcasting gbn [20:41] Hi mechtech I have to install a Joomla site and wanted to ask a few questions about ubuntu [20:41] joeyeye: yet [20:41] yokobr: just boot to the install disk and go through the install...choose to use the entire disk for linux during installation [20:41] yes* [20:41] hi , how to extract rar archive end with .exe , like witpart1.exe ? [20:41] christopher: try and disable n at the router - n is proprietary and may be an issue [20:41] sattam rar end with .exe ? :/ === petllama is now known as petllama`afk [20:42] Shadow175: ask away...If I can't help, there are people in here with WAAAAY more knowledge than me, so fire away! [20:42] christopher: you can also modprobe disable it under ubuntu too [20:42] helper: yes , the first one [20:42] the first is really silly. my ubutu install has stopped accepting ftp connections [20:42] how can i check if ftp is running? [20:42] sattam, there should be a .rar that will call all the rest. you'll actually unrar a file.rar [20:42] ps ax in commmand terminal [20:42] Halitech: autodetect doesnt work either i get a popup that says somethings not setup [20:42] sattam never check this one since .exe = executable [20:42] look through the list [20:43] * otacon122 notes that ANY file you download from the internet is done with FTP [20:43] joeyeye: I changed it from bgn mixed ro bg mixed [20:43] Shadow175: ps aux |grep ftp [20:43] bastid_razor: iam sorry , but the first part is end with .exe [20:43] im using terminator and my default working dir is set to / how can i set it to my home? [20:43] ok i went through the install and it was successful this time... but I was not asked to create a root passwd ... [20:43] christopher: I see the card resetting every few minutes in your syslog ... [20:43] helper: it's windows executable rar archive, it's exist [20:43] 1 min bucky I will check thanks [20:43] jet, not sure, what does lsusb and fdisk -l give for info? [20:43] Shadow175: see what I mean about others with more knowledge? LOL [20:43] Is there a Windows & Linux compatible solution like NetMeeting? (That allows app sharing/viewing?) [20:43] sonism aha [20:43] nobody an anser on my question? [20:43] sattam, there should be a file that ends it .rar that will call the rest of the parts. [20:43] joeyeye: how do i stop the reset? [20:43] lien what's ur question! [20:44] mechtech, it wont boot [20:44] Hi, I have a problem with the buildin cardreader of my acer aspire 9410. I am unable to mount my pro duo card. When I had windows, I could read the card. If I connect py laptop to my printer, i can mount the card with the printers cardreader. Somebody a clue [20:44] Hello, is there anyway to edit the monitor resolution via the command prompt? [20:44] hello [20:44] mechtech, just because of this ive installed through wubi.. [20:44] ok, /usr/sbin/vsftp is listed. how do i check it is running ? [20:44] i want to startx manualy [20:44] ok , i rename the file and try [20:44] yokob: what errors? [20:44] i changed the xinit [20:44] yokobr: what errors? [20:44] nevermind... found the answer or A answer anyway [20:44] and call fvwm [20:44] christopher: it may go away with disabling N on the router side [20:44] Hi, my system is using 366 MB ram (that's without the cache). why? [20:44] Shadow175: ps ax [20:45] but it seem it didn't use the .Xresource ifle [20:45] Shadow175: navigate foxfire to ftp://localhost [20:45] joeyeye: i'll give it a try and come back if it doesn't work [20:45] Threetimes, that's how small Ubuntu is [20:45] what is the class in ifconfig for wifi? I can't find any information online regarding ifconfig classes. thanks [20:45] christopher: or you can disable n on the driver side : sudo modprobe iwl3945 11n_disable50=1 [20:45] sorry [20:45] Threetimes, that's a normal amount of used RAM for Ubuntu [20:45] otacon: 366 MB is too much. What is it used for? what processes? [20:45] LasBuntu_ iwconfig [20:46] helper: thanks [20:46] joeyeye: ok, thanks so mucj [20:46] Threetimes, usually Nautilus and Pidgin are the two main RAM hogs [20:46] Halitech: http://paste.ubuntu.com/237227/ [20:46] what server is linux mint on [20:46] Any instant messengers will use up more than 10MB of RAM each [20:46] otacon122, even finch? [20:46] Hi mechtech.. I tried ps ax but the axe wasn't sharp enough ;-) [20:46] Nautilus uses anywhere between 10 and 100 megabytes [20:46] i can make a socks-proxy with this command on my local computer 'ssh -D *port* *user@remoteserver*' but how do i forward to a specific port on the server? [20:47] Shadow175: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Joomla [20:47] christopher: np [20:47] X uses 100MB, pidgin uses 40MB and nautilus only 6 mb [20:47] Most instant messengers in Linux use between 15 and 50 megabytes [20:47] Shadow175: stick with bucky...he knows a lot more than me [20:47] Shadow175: I just chill in here and lean, and help if aI can [20:47] random345, ssh -Lport:host:port [20:47] The rest comes from the 500kb+ system processes, Threetimes [20:47] lean=learn [20:47] My webbrowser used 250MB and compiz used 100mb, but i closed them. [20:48] Threetimes, go back in and count the number of processes that use more than 500kB [20:48] If I open them, and I add the cache, my memory is full. [20:48] hello [20:48] nom de dieu !!!! y a du peuple dans ce merdier [20:48] All those extra processes are system processes. Linux cannot function properly if you shut them down [20:48] xyem: i do this on the server? [20:48] !fr | One-More-Time [20:48] One-More-Time: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [20:48] hey was wondering if anyone knows a good program to compress iso files [20:48] !french | One-more-time [20:48] One-more-time: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [20:49] 0ne-More-Time = grave :) [20:49] xyem: or on my local computer? [20:49] random345, depends on what machine you want the port forwarded from [20:49] 0ne-More-Time = tous des autistes [20:49] Pici: sorry didn't see you do that [20:49] help please :) what are the cmnds for setting up a ftp user in a specific folder and lock them to that folder ? [20:49] between 1 and 10 mb there are 45 processes. I don't believe the're all needed. Some will be, some will not. [20:49] Shoot_ ha ouai ? [20:49] hello, I'm new to sed, I have a configuration file, for example, hostname foo , I want to use sed to replace foo with other word, I know it's simple, but I couldn't do it [20:49] mechtech: I figured ;) [20:49] Damn videos [20:49] Threetimes, yes, and now you see where the rest of the RAM is going [20:49] random345, for example, to forward port 1234 on the local machine to port 2345 on the remote machine: ssh remote -L1234:localhost:2345 [20:50] Threetimes2, my solution, get more RAM. How much do you have, anyway? [20:50] Shadow175: you need local_enable=YES in /etc/vsftpd.conf http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-91887.html [20:50] is linux compiant with ssh2? [20:50] Need some help i have an ATI Radeon X1950 and it doesnt show restricted drivers [20:50] xyem: i want to forward all ports from that socks-proxy to ssh remote -L1234:localhost:2345 [20:50] compliant? [20:50] random345, the 'localhost' is from the remote machines perspective [20:50] hrrm, i'm trying to change my MAC address, This: "ifconfig ath0 hw ether 00:00:0D:89:8D:AC" looks like it should work, but it says "action not supported" any ideas? thank you [20:50] otaconI have 1GB [20:51] jet, not sure why amarok is complaining about it [20:51] LasBuntu, because you did not use Sudo [20:51] mechtech: openssh supports ssh1 and ssh2 [20:51] LasBuntu_ ath0 or eth0? [20:51] otacon122: I have 1 GB [20:51] is there a program or website like logmein.com to use on Linux and control a windows computer? [20:51] Try using Sudo before the command [20:51] Pici: thanks [20:51] !who [20:51] As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [20:51] hi, trying to write a xchat-script on jaunty, using pynotify/libnotify/notify-osd. is it possible that notify-osd limits notifications to one notification per application? because i somehow can't get multiple notifications to display simultaneously [20:51] kfan, logmein works to do that from linux [20:51] random345, if you want to redirect tcp connections through a socks proxy, you might want to look at tsocks.. [20:51] something comes up with autodetect about dbus and hal daemons runnig? [20:51] !tab [20:51] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [20:51] anyway i dont have time for this tonight..... [20:51] hmm [20:51] i have to go to work medialess [20:52] Threetimes2, I run 2GB on my laptop and 4GB on my desktop and Ubuntu never needs the cache, so you just need more RAM [20:52] helper: Wireless, ath0, [20:52] inless i drag and drop 2 gig worth of random music [20:52] LasBuntu_ maybe wireless not support for that [20:52] im using terminator and my default working dir is set to / how can i set it to my home? [20:52] im having a heck of a time with adobe flash.. anyone else having issues with it? 9.04-64bit [20:52] hi , anyone know what is wikipedia ? I wanted to download it offline and read.Anyone can guide me which one to download ? [20:52] LasBuntu_ i mean this interface like mine wlan0 can't change it's MAC too [20:52] snarkster, what problems? [20:52] profanephobia: its the users home directory here.. How did youlaunch terminator? [20:52] LasBuntu, do a google search for a program called MacChanger [20:53] Ha! VLC is quicker... [20:53] papuser402-1: not working even after complete reinstall [20:53] helper: perhaps use sudo? [20:53] otacon122: I don't see why so much memory is used/needed. I know I can optimize, even if it is just a little bit. [20:53] does this really work? : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_refund [20:53] Dr_Willis: i set up a keyboard short-cut [20:53] !offtopic | theTroy [20:53] LasBuntu, you might try Synaptic, but MacChanger will help you [20:53] theTroy: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [20:53] snarkster, have you shut down the browser and restarted? [20:53] snarkster, and / or full restart / reboot, etc. [20:53] mechtech actually i try this using root [20:53] papuser402-1: yup did that [20:53] helper: ahhh, ok [20:53] profanephobia: Im just using an icon in the panel here. [20:53] helper: thanks [20:53] Threetimes2, right now, my Ubuntu 64-bit config is using 508MB of RAM out of the 4GB total [20:53] snark - did you download / install it direct from adobe? [20:53] if someone makes a spinoff of ubuntu, are they obliged to note this fact in their system? [20:53] hi [20:53] Its because Ubuntu is bloated [20:54] hi, can i startx at boot? [20:54] papuser402-1: nope from the repos [20:54] ubuntunewbie: you want to down load all of wkipedia? [20:54] i deinstalled xdem [20:54] i deinstalled xdm [20:54] snarkster, hmm... ok.. [20:54] NewHandFromCN: what do you mean"at boot"? [20:54] ctmjr: I wanted to download the whole english wikipedia to read offline [20:54] helper: i think the ability to change mac depends on the chipset, i can do it with mine [20:54] My Ubuntu install only uses ~100mb of RAM... [20:54] Thanks for the help guys. [20:54] otacon122: I don't know what your system is doing. but i know my system isn't really doing anything, exept for IRC, and that's 40MB. [20:54] janisozaur: boot into startx [20:54] his runlevel [20:54] Hi, I have a problem with the buildin cardreader of my acer aspire 9410. I am unable to mount my pro duo card. When I had windows, I could read the card. If I connect py laptop to my printer, i can mount the card with the printers cardreader. Somebody a clue? [20:54] snarkster, you could perhaps try direct from Adobe, they have a special installer version for Ubuntu and it will open with the Package Manager... [20:54] Dr_Willis: what command is your icon using to launch, is it just terminator [20:54] when boot , call startx [20:54] profanephobia: i can converim also that using a keyboard shortcut it does in fact use / as the default wprking directory [20:54] NewHandFromCN: you want to boot to runlevel 5 [20:55] ctmjr: but I dont know which one I should choose http://download.wikimedia.org/ [20:55] profanephobia: yes - its just 'terminator' === Dark-Star_ is now known as [Dark-Star] [20:55] sonism ya exactly [20:55] papuser402-1: good idea, ill try that [20:55] does notify-osd limit you to one popup per application on jaunty ? i'm trying to display multiple notifications with pynotify but can't get it to work.. [20:55] ... whose runlevel? [20:55] janisozaur: i didn't find inittab file [20:55] xyem: that's what cool! how can I get my system to use less? [20:55] installing software that isnt available in the package manager, is it difficult? [20:55] thank you for the idea.. [20:55] Dr_Willis: hmm, guess i can just report a bug, see where to go from there [20:55] snark - works / worked here... [20:55] Threetimes2: type top and see what daemon is using what.. realize many things are stored in ram in case you reopen an app.. that way the disk doesn't get hit... type sync in a term that will flush some of it [20:56] NewHandFromCN: sorry, am quite busy right now, can't help you [20:56] <[Dark-Star]> could someone help me with getting world of warcraft working? I can load and log in the game but when the charter loads into the world is crashs about 4 sec later [20:56] Threetimes2, I did a minimal installation and uses some light version of things ( for example, fluxbox ) [20:56] profanephobia: if you must use a keyboard shortcut. you could set your .bashrc i guess to cd to /home/whatever initially.. but tha would affect all shells [20:56] does anyone know of a good free program to compress .iso files [20:56] ???? [20:57] darkangel: any of the normal archiveing tools can do that. [20:57] hey people, someone with aspire 5920G ? [20:57] darkangel: of course how much gain you get.. it debateable. [20:57] xyem: ok, but then you really have a minimal install. No compiz and stuff... :( [20:57] as I say .. they have a specific .deb for Ubuntu that opens with the package manager (installer / uninstaller / add-on utility in Ubuntu) [20:57] what is the command for "apt-remove" etc? [20:57] Dr_Willis im pretty much just looking to save room on my computer [20:57] ctmjr: I just wanted to download and view offline of articles . For some kids too [20:57] Threetimes2, never said I didn't have compiz too :-) [20:57] LasBuntu_: apt-get remove whatever [20:57] !apt | LasBuntu_ [20:57] LasBuntu_: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE) [20:57] the .iso files i have are around 8 gb and id just like to lower them [20:57] Threetimes2: You want the fancy features, they cost resources. It's a trade-off. RAM is cheap. (like $10/GB cheap, at least in the US) [20:57] Threetimes2, not sure what the memory usage when I am running that is though [20:58] Dr_Willis: yeah i didnt think about that, thanks [20:58] snarkster, - the repository, etc... [20:58] darkangel: bzgip may or may not save you much space. depends on the data. [20:58] Threetimes2, I don't need a minimal install, the laptop I am referring to is 2ghz dual core with 3gb of RAM... but I much prefer it that way [20:59] hey people, someone with aspire 5920G ? [20:59] bucky, on my machine, here's what processes are running and how much they are using: Bonobo Activation Server - 1.1MB, Evolution is using a combined 9MB, gcondf2 is using 3MB and fast-user-switch-applet is using 6MB, gksu is using 7MB, gnome is using 20MB, gvfsd is using 7MB, metacity is using 6MB, multiload applet is using 4MB, nautilus is using 24MB, pidgin is using 55MB, python is using 15MB, seahorse is using 18MB, and x is using 2MB [20:59] Q_Continuum: I want to kniow what memory is used by what features. I just turned off compiz to see what it's memory usage was. [20:59] how can i delete files in a folder and its subfolders that end with ~? [20:59] Dr_Willis: : thanks [20:59] darkhamm, I feel sorry for you, I have the Aspire 5930G ( and I wish I didn't ) [20:59] lyrae, find -iname "*~" -print -delete [20:59] lyrae, rm *~ === D`aZ is now known as DaZ [20:59] xyem: it's perfect too, i only need the rmbr.exe in the c: [20:59] xyem: [20:59] otacon122: adds up doesn't it? try vista [21:00] Bucky, all the rest are system processes and use between 500 and 900 kilobytes [21:00] Halitech: i tried rm -r *~, but didnt work. only worked on current folder [21:00] Threetimes2: for the cache, it will only use memory that isn't needed. If something launches and needs memory, the system will automagically stop caching stuff to free that space. [21:00] ctmjr: Any help ? I can't download the torrent http://www.soschildrensvillages.org.uk/charity-news/2008-wikipedia-for-schools.htm [21:00] I have a P4 3.06 HT thingy with 1GB ram, but i *might* add 2gb soon. [21:00] bucky, I've used Vista. It required well over 2GB of RAM just for the OS itself [21:00] lyrae rm -rf *~ [21:00] lyrae, its designed to work that way unless you tell it otherwise .. where do you want to remove the files from? [21:00] xyem: it's a command to make the 4° partition with acer arcade bootable from the instanton [21:00] profanephobia: or make a wrapper script that first cd's to /home/whatver then runs terminator. [21:00] Q_Continuum: the cache isn't really a problem. [21:00] Halitech: a folder and its subfolder [21:01] profanephobia: that may be easier.. Or check the gnome-terminal command line options there may be a way to makt it start in a specific dir [21:01] does notify-osd limit you to one popup per application on jaunty ? i'm trying to display multiple notifications with pynotify but can't get it to work.. [21:01] darkhamm, ah, wouldn't know about that.. first thing I did with my Acer was nuke Vista and everything else off of it! [21:01] how do i copy all my files in a directory with different subdirectories into a single directory (every files in one directory) [21:01] lyrae, so do rm -rf /name/of/folder/*~ [21:01] Dr_Willis: yeah i was doing just that [21:01] ubuntunewbie: this is 2,404,861 articles in English [21:01] xyem: oh, god... ok, you're right... [21:01] xyem: this is #ubuntu [21:02] darkhamm, yes, I know.. I came here for help with something :-) [21:02] i have a bunch of directories.inside those directories i have jpegs. i want to create a dir "Images" in each of those dirs and put the jpegs in that dir in its specific Images dir [21:02] Just to be sure, what is the *exact* RAM limit for ubuntu 32 bit? [21:02] ctmjr: I not sure about the size though.Just wanted to get an offline encyclopedia which wikipedia is the choice [21:02] Threetimes2, technically 4gig but the actual amount will vary [21:02] Halitech: helper: i did try that just now. doesnt seem to affect the sub folders [21:02] Threetimes2: 3gb i think [21:03] Threetimes, my recommendation as a computer technician is always to run at least 4GB of RAM [21:03] Ah! Got it. I was trying to watch the video full screen while running rythmbox, pidgin, frostwire, 2 epiphany windows, and gimp open. The video was really choppy. Downloaded VLC much better still choppy. Closed everything PERFECT. Open just pidgin still good...forgot this isn't my laptop. My laptop can have everything open and still run videos fine. Poor sucky desktop. Ha. [21:03] lyrae you want to clear temporary files with subfolder use find -maxdepth [21:03] NantoRokuseiken, something to get you started: find -iname "*.jpg" -execdir mv -v "{}" /dir/to/copy/to \; [21:03] hi all [21:03] NantoRokuseiken, that's just from memory so it might not work off the bat [21:03] otacon122: at least?!! sure... [21:03] Threetimes2: 32-bit limit is 4GB. (Windows systems, and I'm not sure about Ubuntu, reserve anywhere from 500MB to 1GB of that) [21:03] NantoRokuseiken: so inside each subdir. you want to do 'mkdir Images && mv *.jpg Images' so each subdir also has a Images subdir? [21:03] Hi. [21:04] How to enhance my size? [21:04] Dr_Willis: gnome terminal can use --working-directory but terminator doesnt support it [21:04] This thing doesn't even have a gig of ram. [21:04] Q_Continuum, 32-bit Ubuntu will only see 2.8GB out of 4GB of RAM [21:04] Q_Continuum: though it is quite easy to get far more than that on 32bit systems with PAE, but with limitations in individual process sizes [21:04] 32-bit on Vista is also a max of 3 GB. [21:04] otacon122: 2.8GB every time? I know Windows varies depending on the system config. [21:04] profanephobia: actually it should. but i recall there being some trick to get the argument passed to gnome-terminal not terminator. Terminator is a python script thats calling gnome-terminal. [21:04] Hey, anyone know a torrent client that allows you to change the uploading bandwidth depending on whether or not the torrent is finished downloading on your end? [21:04] otacon122: More like 3.2Gb . But still, yes, not all 4Gb [21:05] otacon122: agp aperture etc can affect how much can be seen, as can invididual chipsets [21:05] otacon122: only 2,8? What's in the other 1,2? [21:05] profanephobia: googling finds others that have a similer issue just using gnome-terminal also. [21:05] Threetimes, that's used by the kernal itself [21:05] Threetimes2: mapped IO for pci-e devices, agp devices, etc [21:05] otacon122: rubbish [21:05] profanephobia: theres also a mention of a gnome-terminal bug --> This is a gnome-terminal bug. You need to run gnome-terminal with the --disable-factory option, otherwise it starts in the same directory which the existing gnome-terminal process started in. [21:05] whatever, i'll just add 2GB :D [21:06] Anyone know where I can find the source for the ubuntu minimal installer? [21:06] xyem: Launchpad [21:06] does anyone know any easy way to list files in the linux file system that are not managed by apt (except places you would expect non-managed files, such as /home, /opt, /proc, /dev etc) ? [21:06] I'm running Ubuntu 64-bit right now and its seein 3.8GB out of 4GB but only using 508MB. I guess what 64-bit Ubuntu does is it frees up the previously-hidden portion of RAM and puts the I/O files in physical RAM [21:07] mneptok, anything more specific? [21:07] would be a handy way to 'integrity check' your system [21:07] :D [21:07] xyem: Launchpad has a search function. i don;t do lazyweb. ;) [21:07] How the friggin smurf do you change the window manager on Ubuntu? [21:07] profanephobia: checking the code in the 'terminator' binary - i see theres several config files for terminator also perhaps one of those may help === root_ is now known as Smekarn [21:08] where do you search for a file that you can't find anywhere? in /bin/laden [21:08] quanta is the one:) [21:08] otacon122: no, 64bit systems just have a much bigger addressable space, so that the IO mapped memory doesn't have to block out system ram [21:08] diddy: do you have a graphical login like gdm ? lower left corner under Sessions ? [21:09] mneptok, well unless that search function searches for text strings in packages, it's not going to be much help [21:09] Hey guys, i have a weird problem. I tried using a VPN service with a trial period just recently. And while i used the vpn i used transmission to download a movie. However, this movie didnt get saved to my regular directory for downloaded files for some reason. Anyone know why this is? And how i can find the file? ;) [21:09] linxeh, so basically it makes each available space in RAM bigger? [21:09] bucky, thx but how do you do it from the console? [21:09] Hi, what's the su passwd for the 8.10 live cd? [21:09] there is none. use sudo [21:10] What is difference between Static HTML dumps and Database backup dumps ? [21:10] Alphinux: sudo -i [21:10] Smekarn, did this solution make use of another user on your box? [21:10] diddy: which wm do you want? [21:10] Viliny: No there is no other users on my box [21:10] Any. I want to know where I can change it. [21:10] what's the best way to know which application are installed without having a desktop what's the best way to know the command to run some applications?whats the best way to know what's the name of an application already installed in your system...... [21:10] s* [21:10] xyem: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/i386/ubuntu-minimal you're welcome [21:10] Viliny: Tryed using the find files function but no joy [21:10] !best [21:10] 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. [21:10] profanephobia: perhaps some good info at -> http://crunchbang.org/wiki/terminator-config/ (man terminator-config) [21:11] bah [21:11] Hi. Somebody can help me to setup NFS? [21:11] profanephobia: oops. its 'man terminator_config' [21:11] diddy: /etc/X11/default-display-manager i think but i'm not sure [21:11] oh thx [21:11] hunter22 like ? [21:11] hei [21:11] diddy: wait [21:11] Smekarn, well im out of ideas... kanske den inte bara sparades. [21:11] That is the display manager. Not the window manager.

xyem: try that Launchpad search sometime. it's quite good. [21:14] bucky: Never mind. Thx anyway. ;) [21:14] what's happened? [21:14] NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now. [21:14] Rhythmbox doesn't display the pop-up with the currently playing song when I hover over the icon in the applet anymore.

Can you screenshot it for me? I just wanna see this! [21:34] and i had to reinstall the os to get it to work agan [21:34] Troy09: I suggest simply killing firefox and restarting it: "killall firefox" [21:35] LinuxEA, mainly more space taken up on the hard drive [21:35] sebsebseb: I see... Thx [21:35] i did [21:35] LinuxEA: and you can even run most of the other desktop environments apps in the other one [21:35] i had to reinstall the os [21:35] Troy09: how did you upgrade firefox?

[22:00] oly562: then just share it [22:00] good greif [22:00] I'm new in Ubuntu. I'm loving compiz, but where can I find a configuration interface for it? [22:00] nope [22:00] not the issue [22:00] oly562: fact is, you're not giving enough information for people to be able to help. [22:00] nopt [22:00] oly562: ok - then this disucssion ends [22:00] not the issue [22:01] for you yeah, you dont have the help i require [22:01] oly562: being stubborn when it comes to these things, isn't going to help you [22:01] oly562: do you have your laptop on the wrong AP [22:01] !compiz | maver [22:01] maver: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz [22:01] oly562: I'm pretty sure I know the issue or at least a good shot at it, but I can't help you futher [22:01] id need someone who knows ubuntu [22:01] oly562 it is a legitimate question [22:01] lol oly you'd better chill this is the ubuntu channel [22:01] mmm found [22:01] ctmjr, tnx the same :-) [22:01] Can someone help me launch an X application like this: "DISPLAY=hostname:0.0 " ? I think I'm just being dumb, but it isn't working. I did set DisallowTCP=false to true in gdm.conf [22:01] oly562: so your network is 192.168.254.XX [22:01] so... who knows why else a box can't ping another box that is network config'd properly [22:01] maver: or sudo apt-get install compiz-settings-manager [22:02] yeah sure bucky thats it [22:02] whats next, what you think it is [22:02] ubuntu related [22:02] oly562: I have 2 good ideas for what it is, but can't take it forward without more information [22:02] oly562: and you can't ping lappy 192.168.254.90 from your windows machine? [22:02] maver compizconfig-settings-manager [22:02] yes [22:02] bucky: that's a tottally different address range to what he said he was on [22:02] Is it possible to rehash after apt-get install automatic? [22:02] oly562: internal ip addresses it's something that is very standard to provide, for the kind of issue your having, and if you don't provide it people think they can't help you, because they probably can't [22:02] and also the fbsd box, and all my other servers [22:03] question: i can not ping 192.168.200.71, or 103, but from a windoze server, and a freebsd server, i can ping both .71, and 103. now, all of these are on the same network, including my laptop. and I can NOT ping .71, and 103 from this computer. I can also telnet from the windoze box, and the freebsd server with both ip's. Why can I NOT ping nor telnet to the wireless printer server? This laptop is wireless, and the windoze and freebsd [22:03] if i delete files with rm, would the system log that anywhere? [22:03] yawn [22:03] oly562: internal ip addres's matter normalley for your kind of issue [22:03] lyrae: only in your .bash_history [22:03] all same net, and mask [22:03] oly562: drop the attitude - people are helping and you refuse to give the information, so either start sharing or stop asking [22:03] oly562: ok - so what's the windows IP address [22:03] ortsvorsteher: would it show which files were deleted? [22:03] i need help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 [22:03] * daniellockard recommends a /kb oly562. [22:03] Please State the Nature of the Linux Emergancy. [22:03] obviously you dont know what to do ikonia [22:03] Dr_Willis: please stop that [22:04] bastid_razor: thanks [22:04] oly562: I'm not the one asking what to do [22:04] lyrae: it shows everytime the complete command. just make tail -f .bash_history and in another terminal type some commands [22:04] oly562: I'm the one who is saying I've got 2 solid ideas on it [22:04] any real techs in here? [22:04] ikonia: :) [22:04] ctmjr, !ccsm is a good help too. [22:04] oly562: I think ikonia can probably help you, if you provide the details he is asking for [22:04] lets here it ikonia. your boring me otherwise [22:04] ortsvorsteher: i didnt let the command complete. i control + c === b is now known as ButtLover [22:04] !ask | ButtLover [22:04] oly562: drop the attitude and share the info - it's not that hard [22:04] ButtLover: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [22:04] oly562 omg [22:05] wo muss man sich registrieren [22:05] you guys are just fscking me with,,, so, either you can help and stop being the way you are, and lets here what you really now [22:05] oly562: or you can provide the fucking information, so that you can be helped. [22:05] lyrae: just as a test, you can try. but, if you brake the command with ctrl-c, it doesnt want to be in your .bash_history [22:05] daniellockard: control the language - it's not needed [22:05] ty ikonia [22:05] sorry. [22:05] daniellockard: no problem, thank you [22:06] oly562: people from the internet can not hack any private IP. so, just tell ikonia the IP [22:06] sonism: he got kicked [22:06] sebsebseb: HA HA HA at last.... whew! [22:06] I am looking for help displaying X applications on a remote computer. I'm trying to use DISPLAY=:0.0 and I get "Cannot open display" [22:06] wo gibts mehr kanäle [22:06] ikonia: sometimes you are too patient for my nerves :) [22:06] !cookie | ikonia [22:06] oly562: your grammer is atrocious [22:06] ikonia: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!

[22:07] finally I'm surprised that it took THAT long [22:07] guntbert: patience is needed for a lot of computer support [22:07] TwoToneSpirit: local lan? or over the internet? [22:07] Dr_Willis: local lan [22:08] brb [22:08] Dr_Willis: You are always on it when I need help, thanks man [22:08] sebsebseb: I know, I just wanted to praise ikonia's extreme patience in *this* case :-) [22:08] Dr_Willis: So yeah, I'm just trying export DISPLAY=192.168.0.35:1.0 and then gedit [22:08] TwoToneSpirit: it would be 'best' if you uses the ssh X forwarding feature.. but to do what you want.. (i havent done it in ages) i think you need to first use 'xhost +ip' to allow the other machine access to the display. and then 'export DISPLAY=XXXXX' [22:09] Dr_Willis: And on which machine do I run xhost? [22:09] TwoToneSpirit: the xhost part allows the other box 'in' and the export pn the the other box sets up the remote. [22:09] guntbert: ok [22:09] TwoToneSpirit: the one you are displaying ON. [22:09] TwoToneSpirit: I find it easier to just ssh -X remote, run the app. [22:09] Dr_Willis: SSH with X forwarding works perfectly, but for this application I need to do it from the other machine [22:10] TwoToneSpirit: so you are at the 'local' machine. and you want gedit on the 'local' box to appear on the remote box? [22:10] My mouse doesn't respond to primary clicks, but does so for secondaries. It's a bit irritiating, and I'm not sure how to go about solving the issue on 9.04. Any ideas? [22:10] Dr_Willis: You got it. I can SSH into the machine, export DISPLAY=:0.0 and run gedit - works perfectly [22:11] TwoToneSpirit: ssh to remote box.. use the xhost + command.. try the 'export, gedit' on the local box.. [22:11] hey whats the irc # for banshee? [22:11] TwoToneSpirit: the gedit running on the local box. should appear on the remote. [22:11] TwoToneSpirit: or ssh in, then ssh -X back. :) Eww... [22:11] No clue? :( [22:12] !broadcom [22:12] Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [22:12] Nyelexo: primary/secondary? You mean Left/right clicks? [22:12] Dr_WIllis: Seriously. :-) [22:12] Dr_Willis: Yes, you are correct. [22:12] TwoToneSpirit: ive accidently ssh'd back and forth befor.. by mistake :) got like 4 deep once === vvvv is now known as vverheijen [22:13] Dr_Willis: It seems as though left-clicks are non-responsive at all, while right clicks are. This does not seem to be dependent on the new wireless mouse device I have, as it was happening on my touchpad too. [22:13] i'm using 9.04: how can i make the notification last longer? [22:13] Dr_Willis, that would be a good reason for customized motd's :P [22:13] bastidrazor: and custome prompts. :) [22:14] bastidrazor: its annoying when you accidently do 'shutdown' to turn off the laptop.. and accidently turn off the fileserver. :) === M1K3 is now known as MK13 [22:14] what is the most elegant way of adding scripts to be executed at boot time? i need my pc to run "pppd call provider" [22:15] janisozaur: /etc/rc.local is one way [22:15] Dr_Willis, heh.. user@host with host being a different color on each box is a good way to help out. [22:15] hi all. I have one hdd with one ext3 partition on all of it and I want to resize that to create space for another one. The sad part is that gparted doesn't see any data on the hdd, although I can mount it without problems [22:15] Dr_Willis: i vaguely recall some command that would "install" the script [22:15] janisozaur: never heard of such a thing.. not sure wher it would 'install' to. === lukjad007 is now known as Guest65948 === picca is now known as you [22:16] janisozaur: unless you are refering to setting up a 'service' for it. [22:16] hi [22:16] janisozaur: one line in /etc/rc.local and it will run at bootup. [22:16] how to install ubuntu === you is now known as picca [22:16] dingod: burn iso to cd.. boot cd.. follow directions. [22:16] Dr_Willis: i think it would set up the service. anyway, i'll just add it to rc.local as you sugest [22:17] dingod: or test it out in virtualbox - is a good way to play with it. [22:17] janisozaur: thats not really a 'service' if its just running one command. [22:17] !install | dingod [22:17] dingod: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways.

Will check it out. :) [22:19] dingod: WUBI or virtualbox.. I perfer virtualbox. [22:21] How do I troubleshoot the fact that my mouse does not respond to left clicks, but does so for right. [22:21] Nyelexo: try a different normal usb mouse for starters? [22:21] Nyelexo: By giving us full details not 1/2 @55 ones. :) [22:21] dingod:whay taking left ear with right hand [22:21] Hi people [22:22] Nyelexo: or try that mouse in a different live cd/disrto or on a different pc. also. (ie: prove its not a gummed up mouse) [22:22] what should i use for my iphone in ubuntu ? [22:22] outy: virtualbox and windows [22:22] ibuntu? [22:22] Dr_Willis: My touchpad did not respond to left-clicks either, and testing it on another PC it performs perfectly. [22:22] noubuntu [22:22] Nyelexo: thats a very very weird quirk then.. Hmm.. Try disabling the touchpad? [22:22] coleys: I'd gladly provide them, granted I know what I need to provide. ;) [22:23] I need some help with this: I always used bootable USB sticks. Now I have this new pen drive, but I can not boot from it :S PC says it is not a bootable device. I made it with UNetbootIn (like always) [22:23] Nyelexo: Mouse name?sddasdfasf? [22:23] Dr_Willis: Must I reboot after this is done? Ive done that. [22:23] Nyelexo: i wonder if perhaps the left button on the touchpad could be 'stuck' [22:23] Nyelexo: see if the laptop has some hotkeys to disable the touchpad. [22:23] Dr_Willis: No need, I disabled the touchpad. However, must I restart for this to take full effect? [22:24] Nyelexo: for what to take full effect? [22:24] Dr_Willis: Disabling of touchpad. [22:24] Nyelexo: depends on how you disabled it.. :) [22:24] Nyelexo: i got an on/off button on my laptop for it. [22:24] what's the cli equivalent of running update manager and updating all packages? [22:24] anyone? [22:25] Dr_Willis: I did it through System > Mouse on GNOME. [22:25] It is disabled. [22:25] janisozaur: sudo apt-get upgrade [22:25] Also, for what it is worth. [22:25] My left button for my touchpad is broken. [22:25] Nyelexo: never done that. you could install 'gpm' and test the mouse in the console also.. see if it works there.. that would show its an X issue.. not a mouse/hardware issue [22:25] mneptok, I found the offending line and if I comment/remove it, the installer behaves as expected. Thanks for the cue :-) [22:26] anyone know of an app (thats not compiz related) that allows windows to snap together on the edges & stay stuck kinda like how winamp does it for windows? [22:26] Hey [22:26] Nyelexo: try a reboot then and see.. its sounding more like the touchpad button may be causing the issue. [22:26] I have windows XP installed on a partition.

[23:39] m4v3r1ck: dosn't bt4 have a live cd? if so it's probably better to boot up from that, rather than having installed, since you say the usb is slow [23:39] sebsebseb - thats it? seems pretty week [23:39] weak* [23:39] LjL: i do not know why that one resolution is giving you such problems but in the control center there is an option to force the refresh rate [23:39] my bt4 entry is http://paste.ubuntu.com/237528/ and ubuntu entry is http://paste.ubuntu.com/237529/ [23:40] _MrsApple_, Settings -> preferences -> Chatting -> General [23:40] durt, _MrsApple_: changing your nick or publicly announcing away is frowned upon. But doing '/away REASON' is okay as long as your client doesn't do either of those things [23:40] sebsebseb yes, but i need to update wireless drivers etc to make it working fine.. [23:40] m4v3r1ck: for which OS? === r4ban is now known as giskard [23:40] also update fast-track. metasploit etc..and i don't want to do that every boot [23:40] for backtrack [23:40] Wicked no it is a bug in vlc and from what i have been reading they are not going to fix it since 1.0 is out [23:41] oh. so it wont be fixed in jaunty?...at all? [23:41] without using 3rd party repositories? [23:41] it seems that grub doesn't see the ubuntu files [23:41] m4v3r1ck: grub menu.lst used to be simple /dev/sda or whatever, now a lot of the enteries get a load of weird characters instead [23:42] Wicked: no it's up to the videolan folks to fix it [23:42] bt4 part is in ext3 and ubuntu in ext4 [23:42] grkblood13: I'll be surprised if you find a linux tool to fix aac. It will be hard enough to find a windows app. But try searching http://www.videohelp.com/ [23:42] weak [23:43] ill just use the kow ppa repo -_- [23:43] m4v3r1ck: what you pasted is two entires, one for 8.10 and the other for 9.04, so that's odd [23:43] m4v3r1ck: pastebin the whole of the menu.lst file [23:43] that sucks [23:44] losher is there any way to cut out pieces of the files [23:44] like break it up pre-playing [23:44] Wht do you thing about syscp? I'm planning to sale hosting. === akgraner_ is now known as akgraner [23:45] grkblood13: you could try loading it into avidemux & seeing if you can edit it there.... [23:45] sebsebseb http://paste.ubuntu.com/237535/ [23:45] losher, avidemux says it cant open the file [23:45] sebsebseb it gives me error 15: file not found when loading ubuntu 9.04...(ubuntu 8.10 is bt) [23:45] why is hplip-gui not found? [23:46] grkblood13: yeah. Back to http://www.videohelp.com/ for you.... [23:46] sebsebseb in grub find /boot/grub/stage1 gives me only (hd0,4) [23:46] man, i hate forums..the wait kills me :( [23:46] m4v3r1ck: did you get a later kernel for 8.10 from a ppa or some such? [23:47] hey I was following this howto but I can't import my public pgp key: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1146081 [23:47] sebsebseb it's the original one..should i install a new one? [23:47] but my key won't import [23:47] I just want my public key... [23:47] sebsebseb: because the ubuntu part is in ext4? [23:48] m4v3r1ck: I thought 8.10 was stil using the 2.6.27 kernel, but you got 2.6.29 installed according to the pastebin [23:48] Anyone seen a driver for the ethernet card on the as5516 from acer yet? [23:48] m4v3r1ck: and 9.04 is only on 2.6.28.13 [23:48] its an odd one [23:48] ibeekman: what error do you get? [23:48] m4v3r1ck: also Ubuntu 8.10 does not have support for Ext4, it's 9.04 that has optional support [23:49] ** Message: invalid keyid (less than 16 chars): 19768BB7 [23:49] m4v3r1ck: are you really on 8.10? or are you in fact on 9.04? [23:49] m4v3r1ck: whats /etc/issue say [23:49] as far as version [23:49] sebsebseb: the 8.10 is the backtrack, so i think they've updated the kernel...for 9.04 i've updated it later from ppa.. [23:50] Hi folks, I get error 17 at grub load... after some google... it seem to not see my grub menu file... i have dual linux boot... [23:50] lstarnes: But this error goes silent unless I run seahorse from a shell explicitly [23:50] sebsebseb BackTrack 4 PwnSauce \n \l [23:50] anything i can do with that? [23:50] m4v3r1ck: ah yes backtrack is based on Ubuntu 8.10 that's what is confusing me. [23:50] BT4 is [23:50] ibeekman: have you tried using the name associated with the key instead of its ID? [23:50] captaincrook: you could manually create the entry to boot up possibly [23:50] so in jaunty there is a mysql-server-5.1 package but not a package for the php mysql 5.1 module [23:50] :[ [23:51] huh [23:51] sebsebseb i think that ext4 is supported by backtrack kernel, because i can mount the ubuntu partition [23:51] how? I have been using the seahorse gui to import the key after publishing it publicly to the ubuntu key server [23:51] sebsebseb should i try to flag the ubuntu partition to boot? [23:51] Your PHP MySQL library version 5.0.75 differs from your MySQL server version 5.1.31. This may cause unpredictable behavior. [23:52] clane: intriguing [23:52] Tenkawa: i'm actualy running on a live cd ... i edit the menu.lst from the first partition then copy it on the other opartition that it doesnt see? [23:52] m4v3r1ck: ,but unforutantlly the way grub menu.lst is done these days, also confusses me, because it's not like before where everything would be done as (hd0,0) (hd0,1) etc instead this kind of thing is done. uuid af9e90da-f73c-4f36-bb88-03e361342bed [23:52] Tenkawa: would i just have to compile php manually from source? [23:52] captaincrook: well I was going to suggest dynamicly try to boot it using the on screen edit [23:52] who actually uses backtrack? [23:52] clane: I wouldnt think so.. thats odd [23:52] Tenkawa: maybe ill try removing and reinstalling the php5-mysql pkg [23:52] or removing php alltogether [23:52] wait [23:52] no no [23:53] sebsebseb if i chroot the ubuntu partition [23:53] let me look at the deb [23:53] hmmmm [23:53] sebsebseb and run grub to reinstall from there? [23:53] lstarnes: how? I have been using the seahorse gui to import the key after publishing it publicly to the ubuntu key server [23:53] Tenkawa: Thank you [23:53] clane: whats giving you that message btw? [23:53] m4v3r1ck: I thought I woudn't be quite the right person to help, another reason I wanted to bring it back here from pm, so I hope someone else can look at your menu.lst file http://paste.ubuntu.com/237535/ and help you what was it triple boot? Ubuntu 9.04, BT4, and Windows 7? [23:54] ibeekman: are you trying to download the key from the key server? [23:54] Tenkawa: i get that msg from phpMyAdmin [23:54] oh, I tribooted mac, win7 and bt3 oncde [23:54] clane: ahhhh [23:54] sebsebseb yes it.. [23:54] sebsebseb i'll try to chroot ubuntu partition and reinstall grub from there [23:54] m4v3r1ck: you may have to repeat the whole issue so someone else can help, and make sure to include the pastebin [23:54] clane: it should still work [23:55] is it erroring or just warning? [23:55] m4v3r1ck: you probalby don't need to re install Grub, just set up your menu.lst file up correctly [23:55] Tenkawa: okay... and you think it will then solve the error? [23:55] lstarnes: yes I just want a public version of my pgp key [23:55] Tenkawa: just a warning, I will migrate my software over and see if I get any errors [23:55] sebsebseb maybe it's easier to reinstall grub and make ubuntu partition bootable...for me ubuntu is more important then backtrack [23:55] ibeekman: you should already have it [23:56] ibeekman: you can't publish a key that you don't already have [23:56] m4v3r1ck: maybe edbian can help if you repeate the whole of your issue now [23:56] Will I have to re-register every time I connect now? [23:56] edbian: no, just identify to nickserv [23:56] captaincrook: that should at least get you booted to check to see if it will reinstall grub on the boot loader [23:56] right I have my private key [23:56] anybody know the command used to renamy your system? [23:56] lstarnes: Will I have to "/identify" ?? [23:57] edbian: /msg nickserv identify [23:57] but I want a copy of the public key so I can email it to people etc. [23:57] lstarnes: Everytime? [23:57] edbian: yes [23:57] edbian: you can probably set your client to do that for you automatically [23:57] lstarnes: What is the point of this? [23:57] somebody? [23:57] edbian, sebsebseb told me to ask you for a grub problem [23:57] edbian: what client do you use for irc? I use pidgin and have it authenticate for me [23:57] m4v3r1ck: What's the issue? [23:57] edbian: it's the same as registering anywhere else [23:57] clane: test it in a test environment first if possible [23:58] ibeekman: I have gnome-xchat [23:58] edbian: so, i've installed bt4 on a pc with ubuntu and windows 7 [23:58] sebsebseb: uuids are used to uniquely identify file systems. They're *supposed* to make things easier... [23:58] I never like mismatched version errors personallt [23:58] er personally [23:58] lstarnes: I have my private key but I want a copy of the public key so I can email it to people etc. [23:58] edbian: if your client has a server password option, use your nickserv password as the server password for freenode. That will identify you automatically [23:58] lstarnes: I am new ot irc chats but I can't think of any other channels that I have to identify to join [23:58] edbian: now grub gives me error 15 file not found when trying to boot ubuntu [23:58] ibeekman: you already have it [23:58] losher: yeah someone in another channal was saying something like that as well [23:58] edbian bt4 and win 7 works... menu.lst file is here [23:58] ibeekman: when you make a private key, it also makes a public key [23:58] losher: however to me it's just a load of weird characters, so how is that going to make things easier? [23:58] edbian http://paste.ubuntu.com/237535/ [23:58] m4v3r1ck: pastebin your menu.lst I will google what "grub 15 error" means [23:59] * Tenkawa really needs to get his wired - ap - ap bridge finished so he can bring his esx cluster back online [23:59] heheh [23:59] lstarnes: where is it? [23:59] losher: easier for me to just use (hd0,0) (hd1,0) or whatever partitions I am doing [23:59] edbian: you also need a registered nick in order to register channels, be added to chanserv's access lists with special permissiions, or make it so that nobody else can use your nick. See /msg nickserv help set enforce for how to keep others from using your nick
