I think K8 is AMD though, do you have an AMD chip?

[00:15] MindVirus: like? [00:15] just to learn. and it's supposed to be very fast. [00:15] jrib: for example, linux-restricted-modules-2.6.28-11-generic [00:15] MindVirus: right, so remove that as well [00:16] mc1: what you done is weird [00:16] I've been convincing friends to switch to Ubuntu and I thought it would be a good way to impress them. [00:16] jrib: I am asking for the best (quickest, least prone to human error) way to do this. [00:16] jrib: I don't want to copy/paste all day. [00:16] mc1: also if everything is being loaded from RAM, well all the programs you install will go, once the computer is re booted [00:16] ain't it?? [00:16] MindVirus: you aren't, you are typing two package names... but I don't know a better way [00:17] jrib: are you disagreeing just to disagree? [00:17] MindVirus: no, I am disagreeing that what I suggested requires "copy/paste all day" [00:17] I'd be apt-cache searching all day. [00:18] And from there copy/pasting. [00:18] mc1: have you restarted the computer since the problems? === Idl3r is now known as Guest15929 [00:18] MindVirus: Ubuntu Tweak provides a list of kernels you can remove [00:18] That's what I'm looking for.

[00:55] mc1: probably if people know what they are doing, without needing to ask others for help, if you get what I mean, otherwise people should just clean install or whatever, do a normal install [00:55] Do you know some good CLI tool to configure services ? [00:55] is there alternative simple music player like xmms? [00:56] agey, audacity [00:56] u upset for what i did? i can do a clean install in no time but, when am i gonna learn??? [00:56] do you mean audacious? [00:57] mc1: no not upset, and I have been there as well, had certain problems, and thought well I want to fix this instead of clean installing, but sometimes it's simpalley better to just clean install [00:57] mc1: oh and if you want speed I have an idea [00:57] cap_eath1, i installed and tried to start, but it told me "a firefox already running" [00:57] mc1: of course booting Ubuntu from a harddisk into RAM, instead of a CD, is going to be quicker [00:57] agey as ubottu just said "Consider using audacious, bmpx, or xmms2 instead." [00:57] Teclys: chech your messages [00:57] mc1: ,but hardly anyone will want to boot up the whole of Ubuntu from the hard disk into RAM [00:58] guys what would I put under /etc/fstab so that my discs and generic devices will be mounted and pop-up automatically ?

[01:06] Lostinspac_46: i'm going through loads of feeds but there's barely much i haven't tried yet [01:06] MK13: should do yep [01:07] Lostinspac_46: i have it in wine too and some other apps [01:07] anyone got some time to help me setup wu-ftpd? can't seem to get it right [01:07] mc1: yeah, I don't know anything about that, something that might be an alternative would be to run the OS off of a flashdrive. [01:07] kindofabuzz: that sounds like an FTP server to me, instead of just a client [01:07] sebsebseb, would it change any settings? [01:07] kindofabuzz: you want to do your own FTP server? [01:08] sebastien__, yeah [01:08] trayzz: When does it happen in wine? [01:08] Lostinspac_46: sometimes my screen just fades to black on fullscreen mode watching movies [01:08] sebsebseb, yeah [01:08] kindofabuzz: ok was just checking, I can't really help with that [01:08] kunji: I've tried that as well successfully [01:08] MK13: yep probably [01:08] Lostinspac_46: fruity loops clicking on a menu eg [01:08] MK13: things should go back to the default [01:08] trayzz: It will do that, if you're not clicking, it thinks you're not using [01:09] but i don't like carrying around an usb stick. tried off a micro sd card but it didnt work [01:09] MK13: I think [01:09] mc1: oh well.. [01:09] Lostinspac_46: well yea but it does it opening any menu or right clicking on a string or anything [01:10] how come in gtkpod all i see under ipod is unwatched and photos [01:10] no music tab or video tab [01:10] No one here knows about setting up servers though? [01:10] Lostinspac_46: i just thought the debug might help fixing it, even though i'm probably too noob to fix it on my own [01:10] trayzz: Basically it does it whenever a new window iniyiates? [01:11] Lostinspac_46: in wine yes [01:11] sebsebseb, ubuntu got interupted in the middle of a restart and now refuses to start x, and suggestions? [01:11] hi [01:11] Lostinspac_46: otherwise its fine [01:11] trayzz: message me [01:11] !xorg | MK13 [01:11] MK13: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output.

[01:13] thx in advance but i know them 4 ages ^^ [01:13] how can i correct a stale NFS file handle? [01:14] http://www.miraigamer.net/cavestory/ [01:14] fergal32: ok [01:14] sebsebseb, yeah, I saw some like tux racing or similar and those are lame. [01:14] MK13: was it over nautilus? [01:14] can someone answer my question [01:14] EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE: I suggest joining #ubuntu-offtopic and asking about games to install [01:14] accol, dang, cave story looks okay. I'm going to try it [01:15] sebsebseb, oh, sorry about that [01:15] zigibagido: you can't login to root... because root account and root password is disabled in ubuntu [01:15] trust me....ull love it [01:15] EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE : nice pseudo [01:15] lol [01:15] moymoy: but you can enable it [01:15] hi, if i wanna change a users default locale, just assign LANG and LC_ALL in .xsession right ? === kerm|t is now known as otehupu [01:15] moymoy, use sudo -i or sudo -su [01:15] EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE: i know.. i'm telling someone else === otehupu is now known as kerm|t [01:16] moymoy, i get a stale nfs handle error when trying to start X [01:16] sudo su should never really be used unless of course you want the logging to not work anymore [01:16] zigibagido: you can try making your own root account [01:16] # [01:16] MK13: is it automounted in fstab? [01:16] # [01:17] moymoy: I have enabled root account and password i just want to have it auto login on start up. [01:17] moymoy, it is the root file system [01:17] you have your / as a mounted NFS share? [01:17] MK13: you have your / as a mounted NFS share? [01:17] EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE: oh yeah and instead of saying loads of native Linux games are lame, how about you help make native open source Linux games better :) by contributing to projects, or learning how to program (assuming you don't know how already) and make your own? [01:17] * [01:17] does crossover use some of the libs or anything else created by wine? because i cant get to run some apps, which worked with crossover before, but i guess i did change some things at wine which i cant remember ;) in particullar i am talkink about magic workstation where both tools dont let me use the online play with an error on gdipluss.dll [01:17] moymoy, it isnt NFS, that is just a general error [01:18] sebsebseb, where can I start? [01:18] MK13: then i don't know.. keep asking around [01:18] EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE: don't know, but Python is a good language to start with [01:18] crossover is very limited in the number of games available [01:19] this is not an app compared to games [01:19] just an app [01:19] EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE: well you don't seem to understand, that most games companies don't really care about Desktop Linux, hence why hardly any of them make for Linux, they will use the, Linux does not have enough market share on the desktop yet excuse [01:19] EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE: make the world's best Linux RPG game.. i like rpg's but the good ones have been abandoned for liscensing issues =[ [01:19] crossover? havent used it 4 ages [01:19] moymoy: do you know how to do this? [01:20] zigibagido: no idea [01:20] Does anybody know How to enable automatic root login? (I know this is dangerous) [01:20] it's under settings or something [01:20] Login Window I believe [01:20] and you have to change it to Allow root access for login [01:21] zigibagido: recovery mode by default logs into root, but it's cli-only [01:21] question: I am using 8.10. is it safe to upgrade to 9.04 thru the "update manager" or should I be downloading the new cd and start from scratch? [01:21] zigibagido: you should not be using most graphical applications as root === kerm|t is now known as eeeeupu === eeeeupu is now known as kerm|t [01:21] ejv: I suggest staying with 8.10 for now, untill 9.10 is out, then clean install, plus then you get Ext4 by default :) [01:21] ejv: if in the mean time you want to try 9.04, and you have enough RAM, you can virtual machine it inside 8.10 [01:22] is anyone here good with power managment stuff (pm-suspend)? [01:22] I just want to know how [01:22] Is there a way [01:22] sebsebseb: I'd really like openoffice 3.0 [01:22] ejv: you can have that in 8.10 as well, there's a ppa [01:22] sebsebseb: i thought it was only for 9.04, i stand corrected, what's a ppa [01:23] !ppa > ejv [01:23] ejv, please see my private message [01:23] cool [01:23] l [01:23] ok [01:23] ejv: ppa's are a way to get later versions of programs, without having to wait for the next Ubuntu release, or without people having to install them self in another way [01:23] so where do i get the 'ppa' for ooo [01:23] i get a stale file handle error, but fsck.jfs shows no errors, and ideas? [01:23] As GRUB 2 discourages manual editing of grub.cfg, how to get it to "know" that the drive its on should be (hd2) instead of the (hd4) it thinks it is? [01:24] ejv: the Ubuntu repos only do security updates, hence these ppa's [01:24] ejv: and they often have a maintainer, so updates are automatic as usual [01:24] lstarnes: do you know if there is a way to do this. Or can i tell you want i want to accomplish and you may have a different method? [01:24] openoffice* [01:24] ejv: normalley you get the ppa's from luanchpad, and you add a repo for it [01:24] ok [01:24] zigibagido: I would strongly recommend against it [01:24] [01:24] [01:24] [01:24] [01:24] Mozillero052: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:24] ejv: you can Google Open Office 3.0 ppa or some such, and it should come up [01:24] zigibagido: I don't know of a way to do that but it may be possible [01:25] anyone know the command to search for a cd-rom driver [01:25] lstarnes: ok can i ask you something else - can i VNC into the computer before ti logs on so i can login to any account? [01:25] There seem to be several options regarding software to connect to my cell phone .... Does anyone have suggestions and/or experience with this? [01:25] zigibagido: I'm not sure [01:25] i'm trying to get to load up xenserver on my systm and it wont find my cd-rom drive [01:25] uvstudios, try mount [01:25] Hey everyone. [01:25] Hey guys! are there any game repos ? [01:26] guys which tool is better to sync files (mp3 files) [01:26] Does anybody know if you can VNC into Ubuntu before it logs in so you can login as any user? [01:26] Can anybody help me with some Emerald stuff.... i'm having problems (No not installing themes or anything but generic issues...) [01:26] what is the usual mount point for a cd-rom drive? [01:26] zigibagido: you cannot vnc like that. [01:26] zigibagido, no you cannot [01:26] Running 32 bit Ubuntu Jaunty, all up to date etc. Pretty much fresh install. [01:26] joltzy, http://blog.ubuntugames.org/ [01:27] thor: if i have a computer with no screen that i want to be able to access from another computer that will be restarted and i will need to access root account how do it do it [01:27] joltzy, there are no special games repos maintained by Ubuntu [01:28] joltzy, try http://ubuntugames.org/ there are many games [01:28] hey lostinspace_46 im getting much better at dvorak im up to 30wpm yay [01:29] Andre_Gondim: thx alot m8 [01:29] bazhang: okey [01:29] zigibagido, why would you need to do that; accessing the root account is very unsafe [01:29] could someone please explain to me hoow to set a chain loader, i keep getting "invalid or unsupported format" [01:29] Anybody anybody at all? [01:29] zigibagido, use sudo not root [01:29] What is the name for the ubuntu chat channel? [01:29] when i try to startx i get a stale file handle warning, but when I boot from a livecd and run fsck.jfs it does not find any errors [01:29] Kevin1a: #ubuntu [01:29] Kevin1a: #ubuntu-offtopic [01:29] PaulChater, emerald is no longer supported [01:29] thanks [01:29] np [01:30] paulchater you gotta ask a question first lol [01:30] trakcyia , I did ;) I was asking if anybody could help me, once I received a response I would state the problem. [01:30] zigibagido: I have no idea what that question was....but if you want to get into a machine the way to do it is to ssh to the machine, log in as the user you want to use, start vncserver, log out, then you can vnc to the machine and access that user's desktop [01:30] zigibagido: another option is to open an ssh tunnel to the other computer and then run the desktop apps via an X-forwarding tunnel [01:31] PaulChater: well, how in the world is anyone going to know they can help if they don't know the problem? [01:31] k thanks [01:31] PaulChater: just ask you're question. The channel rules are visable via the channel info. [01:31] glad i finalyl got my printer working [01:31] !multemedia > rafaelscj [01:31] Sorry, I don't know anything about multemedia [01:32] Okay, basically how would I refresh Emeralds cache? Basically what is happening at the moment is I'm trying to install a theme but it just doesn't do ANYTHING (Note: Before I formatted and reinstalled Ubuntu Emerald worked perfectly fine.) It doesn't show me a list of themes, nothing, I will take a screenshot. [01:33] !emerald | PaulChater [01:33] PaulChater: emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. [01:33] !codec | rafaelscj [01:33] rafaelscj, please see my private message [01:33] PaulChater, as I said above emerald is no longer supported; use a different window decorator for support [01:33] bazhang: I don't care if its obsolete. Emerald is theo nly one I know. [01:34] PaulChater, unsupported means we dont support it here. [01:34] Also its the only one which I can find themes easily for, and the one I like. [01:34] unsupported hmm.. [01:34] PaulChater: maybe they will support it in ##linux or #compiz [01:35] bazhang: I know what unsupported means. Don't be a dick. Help someone out. It's a community isn't it? Communities should help out wether software is unsupported or not. [01:35] its unsupported within this community [01:35] sebsebseb, Yeah then they'll just say go to #ubuntu if I ask in there. [01:35] PaulChater: I would help you out, but I don't really know anything about Emerald. Maybe try some forums? [01:35] PaulChater, no need for that language. [01:36] tell them its unsupported in #ubuntu [01:36] PaulChater: if they do that, you say we won't support it here [01:36] Kevin1a, I've looked on google, there's nothing, nadda, zilch. [01:36] jeez guys. I know canonical has done a lot to simplify linux, thus attracting people who don't know how it works, but what has canonical done to attract such a lack of common sense? [01:36] th0r: people in here are volunters [01:36] th0r, blame it on MTV. [01:36] do you need an execute bit or a read bit in order to play a movie or mp3 file? [01:36] th0r: maybe there are one or two Canonical employees hiding in here some where, but other then that [01:36] spO: read [01:37] th0r: such as not having the common sense to stay ontopic on the channel? :) [01:37] sebsebseb: not the volunteers....some of the questions [01:37] Paul just go lay down 180 bucks for a copy of vista [01:37] execute bit is needed only for running programs [01:37] ? [01:37] spO, you need to install the codecs [01:37] spO: correct [01:37] lol [01:37] baz, so i need a execute bit now? [01:37] spO: directories also need it so that you can see what's in them [01:37] sorry [01:37] spO: the files don't need the execute bit [01:38] eric1, Why would I want Vista? The operating system is Shit. Besides i have its new brother /sister installed, don't mock me or make some random assumption that I came from Windows. [01:38] hello, how to install gDesklets? I get an error when try to launch it from menu [01:38] spO, install ubuntu-restricted-extras package [01:38] only programs need execute bit? ie, files that are sound or movies, do not then huh [01:38] PaulChater, watch the language please [01:38] bazhag, how come? [01:38] spO: correct [01:39] PaulChater: it's new brother or sister? Windows 7? if you meant Ubuntu nope, since it's not related to Windows in any way at all [01:39] How do you install .tar.gz files? I forget. [01:39] spO: ubuntu-restricted-extras includes extra codecs [01:39] PaulChater: try installing your themes manually (they are compressed files, try uncompressing and putting them in .emerald/themes at your $HOME) [01:39] mmm, regarding emerald, how is it included on the universe repository if it's unsupported ? [01:39] kunji: extract it (tar xzf file.tar.gz) then look for a README or INSTALL file [01:39] I am installing the Ubuntu by using the wubi, but the most size i can get is 30gb.. I can expand it or what? [01:39] all to be fair, I have Windows7 installed here on a spare box for testing (I work in IT) I am actually very suprised with it [01:39] I use emerald [01:39] Sorry, extracting is the part I forget.... [01:39] =) [01:40] of course Linux is way superior :) [01:40] aicra, Finally someone with some sort of decent solution instead of practically saying "piss off" [01:40] hello, how to install gDesklets?

Now however, after "upgrading" to jaunty, there is no sound output. Period. In any application at any point in time. I need HELP. [01:56] ok what i want to do is connect to my desktop with my laptop and use the pulseaudio to stream the sound to my laptop [01:56] Juan_a_Day: if the printer is connected to your computer, the next screen should say (I think) just socket [01:56] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire this one [01:57] Juan_a_Day: although it might want the hostname of the computer as well. [01:57] th0r: I din't know that apple could help me in that [01:57] dgeary2, for example, pidgin uses 1024-2048 ports. but i think it works without allowing these ports [01:57] I used system>administration>printing [01:57] then you might be able to select the model from the database [01:57] for the printer [01:57] rafaelscj: what protocols are you using in pidgin? [01:57] 201.229.147.233 [01:57] th0r: problems there is TX200 and 400 not 300F [01:57] Juan_a_Day: a direct connect computer used to be lpd, but I read somewhere that cups now considers all printers network connected. [01:58] dgeary2, msn, irc, (gmail) [01:58] user2 is not implicitly part of group user2 is it? [01:58] or get the PPD files from the driver CD that came with the printer [01:58] user: deamon3 | password: f50f50 ||||| user:root ||password f50f50 [01:58] th0r: it is ok if it is a network printer [01:58] Juan_a_Day: the next screen is where you choose your printer model. Sometimes you have to try a few to find one that works if yours isnt listed [01:58] rafaelscj: none of them accept new connections [01:59] th0r: Is there any ppd file that I can use? where do I get it? [02:00] i guess not [02:00] from the driver CD that came with your printer [02:00] Juan_a_Day: and that is about all I remember about defining a cups printer. There is some pretty good info on the web about various models, so google cups and your printer model and see if someone else has already defined it [02:00] Juan_a_Day: I wouldn't know.....you might try google again for that...usually they come from the printer manufacturer I think [02:00] you might want to first see if your printer is supported [02:00] hold on juan [02:01] umask doesn't make sense because if i set umask to 777 , then every file i create is 0000, but if i use umask 022 , then every file created is 644 [02:01] eric1: th0r is going to put those printer memories back in the cellar where they belong [02:02] th0r: yes I did, I think that I can continue by myself, thank you very much, I'll tell you when I finish [02:02] Juan_a_Day: good luck [02:02] So nobody has any idea. Great. Know where I can find more competent sound people? Or a FAQ? Or anything? [02:02] th0r: thanks again [02:02] what kind of settings would "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" reset? [02:03] Apollo2366: considering that Alsa is not used by default [02:03] JUAN go here http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting [02:03] select your model [02:03] and it will tell you if its compatible, [02:03] and what steps you need to take to get it working [02:03] Apollo: I'm using OSS4 instead of alsa (much less res. hungry on my EEEPC), did you tryit ? [02:04] anyone have any idea why rsync'ing large amounts of data is causing a kernel panic on the receiving server? [02:04] Apollo2366: check if pulseaudio is running [02:04] kitche: what do you mean, i thoug alsa IS default on anly linux [02:04] aicra, it is === M1K3 is now known as MK13 [02:05] Apollo2366, check if speakers are mutted (use alsamixer) [02:06] what is the diff betwn ubuntu and xubuntu? [02:06] papul: regular ubuntu uses gnome, xubuntu uses xfce [02:06] papul: the default applications are also different [02:06] !xubuntu | papul [02:06] papul: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels [02:06] papul: but they use the same package repositories [02:06] aicra, No, they aren't [02:06] papul, xfce4 and gnome, some of the apps, and somewhat lighter weight [02:06] lstarnes: such as? [02:06] papul, install and try [02:06] bazhang: ok [02:07] papul: I'm not sure exactly what xubuntu has as its default applications [02:07] papul, xubuntu-desktop is the package you want [02:07] Getting an error loop on my Aspire One - "Status {DRDY ERR} / Error: UNC / Exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action / BDMA Stat 0x4". Disabled ACPI in GRUB to no avail. Where could I find a good translation of this? Most docs on DRDY error blame it on a kernel bug and reccommend ACPI=off. [02:07] i will fresh install xubuntu [02:07] will xubuntu run on netbooks? [02:07] papul, you dont need to fresh install [02:08] paul, yeah [02:08] eric1: thanks for that printer link. And it made me feel good when it said to first give it a try...start with localhost:631. Always nice to know the old ways still work [02:08] papul, you can install that package and then choose from the login session [02:08] bazhang: i dont have ubuntu in my system [02:08] cant install de to low ram [02:08] papul, gnome works fine on my netbook though, why do you want xubu? [02:08] Apollo2366, hmm... check if pulseaudio's default server is your machine [02:08] aicra, how do I do that? [02:08] hi all [02:09] tsrk_: i want to install xubuntu on my old desktop as well [02:09] tim, verify with smartctl that the disk health is ok [02:09] yep [02:09] anytime [02:10] will do. [02:10] papul, ok, it should work well for that [02:10] ubuntu does not even install [02:10] aicra, hello? [02:10] Apollo2366, if you see a small icon with a plug in the gnome-bar, click it-> select default-server-> see if this is your machine [02:10] papul, you'll probably want the alternate xubuntu cd then (rather than the live cd) [02:11] tsrk_: ok [02:11] Apollo2366, if you don't see it, start padevchooser [02:12] aicra, I selected "Default" and nothing changed. Still no output. [02:12] at the very same icon, select manager [02:13] check if you are connected to pulseaudio [02:13] aicra, yeah [02:14] i mount two cifs on my box and one is mounted with 777 , and one is mounted with 555 , i don't understand why they are mounted with different default permissions [02:14] ie, i did not specificify permissions but that is what they were mounted as [02:15] sorry Apollo2366, I don't know what else todo, [02:15] [02:15] maybe google? [02:15] sPO, maybe it is showing the access permissions from the server? just guessing [02:15] re [02:15] thanks anyway [02:16] Apollo2366, maybe try playing something with mplayer -ao pulse, and see if it gives you some information [02:16] Apollo2366, good luck [02:16] Apollo2366: can you run mplayer from the console and check if there are any error messages about sound? [02:16] clas_ yeah, hold on [02:16] blaz_ yeah, hold on [02:17] how do i format a flash drive in ubuntu? [02:17] t [02:18] someone, anyone? [02:18] blaz_ no errors at all. Just no sound [02:18] ARMENIAN, i know of a way using the command line, dunno if there is an easy one with the GUI [02:18] ARMENIAN, mkfs -t /dev/sdXX [02:18] Help! oh no :( "aptitude: command not found [02:18] " [02:18] what should be done? === root is now known as Guest66319 [02:19] did i delete something? [02:19] how can i get ubuntu 9.04 to work on a PC with intel integreted grahics 855? [02:19] ARMENIAN, or you can install gparted for a gui approach [02:19] MK13: ok so mkfs -t NTFS but what is the /dev/sd does it matter? [02:19] blaz_ wait, It gave me something: Starting playback... [02:19] Cannot sync MAD frame.0 (29.0) 0.7% [02:19] Cannot sync MAD frame [02:19] Cannot sync MAD frame.0 (29.0) 0.7% [02:19] MK13: command line is better if i can just figure out what i should set the /dev/ to [02:19] Apollo2366: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [02:20] blognewb, sudo apt-get install aptitude [02:20] if anyone can please help i would much appreciate [02:20] Hm .. [02:20] how do u check the devices? [02:20] ARMENIAN, plug your pendrive and when you see it mounted, type "mount" in a terminal [02:20] ARMENIAN, the /dev/sdXX is where your USB drive is ("sudo fdisk -l" can help you find the right /dev/sdXX) [02:20] Apollo2366: did it say something about 'no sound' and then continue playback? [02:21] What's something I could tweak in ubuntu. I'm running out of ideas [02:21] why does mplayer start and exit fullscreen whenever I play or stop a video? It's annoying [02:21] Weird. [02:21] the device will be mounted somewhere under /media [02:21] blaz_, no, that's all the output I got, besides the normal playback output. [02:21] how can i get ubuntu 9.04 to work on a PC with intel integreted grahics 855? [02:22] o_o it worked thank you aicra. is it really not installed on ubuntu 9.04? [02:22] !intel | Guest66319 [02:22] Guest66319: 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. [02:22] Apollo2366: I don't know then, sorry... [02:22] thank you so much sir [02:22] Guest66319: maybe you can't, but I read something about 9.10 having a fix for the Intel issues [02:22] Shit, well thanks anyway. [02:22] which version of ubuntu works with intel 855? [02:22] Guest66319: however 9.10 final won't be out untill end of October [02:22] i used pone years back and cant remeber which one worked [02:23] with the default Ext4 :) and people get full support only when they do a proper clean install [02:23] Guest66319: did you recently upgrade to 9.04 or something? [02:23] i just installed it and the screen is black [02:23] hm .. [02:24] im using slax off a cd now [02:24] Guest66319: oh right that's kind of interesting [02:24] Guest66319: ok if you want Ubuntu, and since you got Intel graphics card, your probably better off putting 8.10 on for now [02:24] exit [02:24] 8.10? [02:24] thanks!!! [02:24] sebsebseb you are a good man! [02:25] Guest21901: The question you want to ask is which intel driver will work with your intel card [02:25] Guest66319: yep the previous version http://releases.ubuntu.com then you can clean install and do 9.10 when it's out :) [02:25] Guest66319: It isn't working at all? Or is it just the acceleration that isn't working? [02:25] how to check the percentage of disk fragmentation? [02:25] ahh [02:25] Guest66319: remember to md5sum your ISO before burning to make sure it's a good one [02:25] !md5sum | Guest66319 [02:25] Guest66319: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more [02:25] once it boots i hear the startup sound and the screen get corupted and goes black [02:25] !defrag | rafaelscj [02:25] rafaelscj: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. [02:25] Guest21901: If you're getting a black screen, you should post /var/log/Xorg.0.log somewhere [02:25] rafaelscj: depends on the fs [02:26] soreau: wrong Guest [02:26] Guest66319: Can you access the hard drive from the slax live cd? [02:26] thanks everyone i will download ubuntu 8.10 for now [02:26] yes you can === _Siegfried is now known as Siegfried [02:26] Guest66319: to be honest 9.04 is a bit of a bad release, so 8.10 :) [02:26] i have to go thanks all!! [02:26] mk13 hmm I was able to get everythign btu when i set -t to NTFS it ended up formatting to etx3/ext4, weird [02:26] sebsebseb: Bah, auto nick completion always goes to hell in this wretched channel [02:26] i need it in NTFS [02:27] sebsebseb: a 9.04 user agrees [02:27] garchonix, it's ext2. i want to analize that percentage. [02:27] 9.04 sucks, never use it. [02:27] ARMENIAN, i am checking on how to format is to ntfs, one sec [02:27] th0r: yeah I am using 9.04 at the moment as well, but I will clean install, and get KDE 3 from the repo, and run that for a while, with karmic and such in virtual machine :) [02:27] th0r: and with Ext4 of course, running that now for 9.04 [02:28] MK13: ok thanks :) === PingJocky_ is now known as PingJocky [02:28] sebsebseb: been debating if it would be worth backing up to 8.10. I also run ext4 in jaunty [02:28] th0r: my partition set up etc, so it's easier and better to just clean install, to sort out [02:28] rafaelscj: e2fsck -nv /dev/hda5|grep config [02:28] hm. [02:28] th0r: 8.10 does not have Ext4 [02:28] sebsebseb: same here...partitioned so I can nuke the system and keep home [02:28] th0r: 9.10 will use by default :) ,but people must clean install for full support [02:29] (change sda5 of course) [02:29] sebsebseb: yeah...been trying to hold out for 9.10 instead of 8.10....but keep stubbing my toes on jaunty [02:29] th0r: what kind of issues? === blaz_ is now known as DeskRabbit [02:29] ARMENIAN, "http://www.online-tech-tips.com/computer-tips/format-usb-ntfs/" [02:29] rafaelscj: also http://linuxgazette.net/164/misc/lg/2_cent_tip__ext2_fragmentation.html may be of interest [02:29] th0r: I thought about putting another distro on my hard disk properly, because of jauntey, but... [02:30] sebsebseb: my sound doesn't always work at bootup. Been trying to find out what is going on, but so far all I know is I have to reboot to get it back, sometimes two or three times. [02:30] MK13: i know how to do it in Windows :P I want to do it in ubuntu [02:30] sebsebseb: I also lost my wifi to 28-14...so I have frozen jaunty at 28-13 and turned off updates [02:31] th0r: that's a bit sucky [02:31] Im just so happy today :) [02:31] is there a way to sudo -i one whole desktop session ? [02:31] th0r, 28-15 just came out today [02:31] sebsebseb: and the worst is this laptop is ati video...so no support any more [02:31] * macgyver_ is tearing his hair out trying to get dual monitors working [02:31] bastid_razor: yeah...I am debating giving it a try [02:31] th0r: sounds like maybe you should go to 8.10 [02:31] hello everyone [02:31] i'm not happy i sold my desktop to party [02:31] th0r: then clean install and give 9.10 a try when it's released [02:31] sebsebseb: yeah...I know I should...but getting lazy in my old age [02:31] anyone have any idea why rsync'ing large amounts of data is causing a kernel panic on the receiving server? [02:32] th0r, you can always remove it if it doesn't work.. apt-get is very kernel friendly that way [02:32] hey guys another dumb question, suppose i'm upgrading/installing/updating something via PuTTy and it got disconnected, will the incomplete files remain? What is the right thing to do? THANKS! [02:32] i phoned this guy giving away free monitors so I could powerup my sparc and he brings me vga monitors from 1992 that make a weird smell when I turned them on [02:32] bastid_razor: yeah...already had to do that with 28-14 [02:32] th0r: No support for which graphics card? [02:33] they r sitting in the rain right now [02:33] th0r: well as the saying goes, newer is not always better, so true, also with Ubuntu it's not about what is new, it's about what is still supported [02:33] soreau: it is an ati card....650 I think [02:33] ah mplayer is driving me insane, it starts+exits fullscreen when I ever I play or stop a video. How can I stop this? [02:33] ARMENIAN, my bad... wrong link, but i don't think ubuntu can format in ntfs :( [02:34] i can do sudo -i from console, but how do i make my whole desktop session sudo -i ? [02:34] MK13: really, well that sucks, but doesn't gparted do it, I believe it does [02:34] sebsebseb: what really aggravates me...I had the 8.10 cd in my hands and was about to install it, and decided at the last minute to download jaunty instead [02:34] spO: why? [02:34] sebsebseb: God don't help dumb ? [02:34] spO, you would not want to do that === paulj1 is now known as pauljw [02:34] th0r: what was that? [02:35] th0r: That card is supported by the open ati driver. Works ootb, no more fooling with driver installation. Not to mention, the ati driver has improved ever greatly in the past year since amd bought ati and is releasing specs, working with the open radeon driver developers [02:35] hello, may ubuntu ppp connect to windows ? [02:35] ARMENIAN,MK13: ntfsprogs can't do it? [02:35] spO, to run graphical applications you could use gksudo applicationname from a terminal [02:35] hello, may ubuntu ppp connect to windows over uart? [02:35] sebsebseb: ...a dumb move on my part....downloading jaunty instead of installing 8.10 [02:35] garchonix, that command found too many errors [02:35] th0r: yeah well naturally you think the later one is going to be better for you, but that won't always be the case, [02:36] th0r: shame 8.10 isn't a LTS it was a great release [02:36] th0r: I suspect karmic will have the option for dri2 on radeon cards up to r5xx [02:36] th0r: it is a great release I should say [02:36] soreau: I do have the card working, even have xfce compositing. But the video still leaves something to be desired [02:36] hello, may ubuntu ppp connect to windows over uart, and can ping to windows? [02:36] rafaelscj, then your hd is failing? [02:36] th0r: Such as? And which driver are you using? [02:36] soreau: there is video tearing when I move windows around, and some flickering with google earth and such [02:36] garchonix: hmm havent tried it was hoping ubuntu had a built in option [02:36] ok, here's a prob im having. I tried to apt-get install the kubuntu desktop image, and it said i had to manually run dpkg --configure -a. i did that, and it went through this whole long process and then said aborted. before this, i tried synaptic with basically the same result. what do i do now????? [02:36] ARMENIAN, the ntfs choice in my gparted is faded out and unselectable [02:37] th0r: dri2 will fix the flickering with opengl + compositing, and testing it here there is far much less tearing than years past of the reverse engineered driver [02:37] soreau: I am using the radeon driver...just read something about blacklisting that and using something else...but haven't gotten back to that url to read further yet [02:37] all im trying to do is switch my GUI to KDE, didnt think it would be this hard :( [02:37] garchonix, i've formated it recently [02:37] hmm [02:38] garchonix, yesterday [02:38] rafaelscj, but if you have s.m.a.r.t. errors, it means the hardware is failing or about to [02:38] th0r: Now is the time to go with ati, by the end of the year the driver will be working very well with 2.6.31 and later kernels (KMS kernel mode setting) [02:38] ARMENIAN: http://man.linux-ntfs.org/mkntfs.8.html [02:38] PONG 1249177117 [02:39] is there some other way to install KDE? [02:39] schiz0id: yes [02:39] how? [02:39] schiz0id: at the login screen theres a sessions menu to select what desktop to use. [02:39] schiz0id: you can even get KDE 3 from a repo or remix cd [02:39] schiz0id: install kde-desktop [02:39] schiz0id: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop to install kde4 [02:39] soreau: well, the laptop is really nice, so I put up with the video. And I, unlike some, am willing to sacrifice a little, I realize linux isn't 100% out of the box...needs tweaking and gentle loving care [02:39] !kde3 | schiz0id [02:39] schiz0id: Kubuntu 8.04 ships with KDE3 and full support. Jaunty does not include KDE3 but a remix install CD can be obtained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty . This is not officially supported. Support, instructions and ways to contribute can be found on the wiki page [02:39] * sebsebseb is not much of a KDE 4 fan [02:39] Repo's having issues? I'm having mad issues trying to get some updates.... buncha size mismatches on the US archive server, and switching to the "official server" has yielded a missing gpg key.... [02:39] schiz0id: you getting dpkg errors is a symptom of something being wrong with your package manager, which you should fix, not work around. [02:39] th0r: heh :) [02:40] Should probably note i'm using 9.04 [02:40] rww: how do i fix it then? [02:40] garchonix, -> Inode 3571767, i_size is 1389227, it should be 1396736. Correct? no [02:40] Dr_Willis: thank's for you help. [02:40] BitTorrent: oh? Ive been at the grocery store for the last 2 hrs.. I think.. :) [02:40] firefox is acting up on me. how do i kill this process? normally I would google my answer but my browser isnt responding [02:40] all how can I get my Toshiba to load dual monitors? that probbaly sounds like a n00bie question, but I have pretty much tried everything [02:40] ogr3, ps aux | grep firefox [02:40] wait, let me try that menu u were talking about. brb [02:40] ogr3, kill -9 processid [02:40] schiz0id: well, first step would be copying the output from dpkg --configure -a to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ ... [02:41] i try to chown my externel NTFS usb drives, but it isn';t working [02:41] rafaelscj: you told me smartctl reported errors right? [02:41] I am running the ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver [02:41] spO: you DONT chown/chmod ntfs/vfat filesystem files [02:41] spO: you must mount them with the proper options to set the permissions/ownerships [02:41] macgyver_: Have you tried amdcccle? [02:41] MK13: yeah I just tried it on gparted same thing [02:42] but i think i found a solution [02:42] Repo's having issues? I'm having mad issues trying to get some updates.... buncha size mismatches on the US archive server, and switching to the "official server" has yielded a missing gpg key.... I'm running 9.04, default install thus far. [02:42] garchonix, don't know, that's a line of the output [02:42] soreau, yes I have that installed, but it is asking for xinerama or something [02:42] macgyver_: Or something? show the output [02:42] that couldnt be the output of smartctl [02:43] garchonix, does that command show s.m.a.r.t errors? [02:43] yes [02:43] ARMENIAN, what is your suggested solution? [02:43] soreau, I cannot show the output, its GUI [02:44] is there something that handles power of external usb drives well or better than generic and default configuration? [02:44] macgyver_: GUI goes tot he monitor which is an output device [02:44] MK13: well i just installed ntfsprogs and gparted now allows me to choose it :) solved [02:44] is there a command or something that will allow me to turn off my hard drives after 20 mnuutes or so [02:44] huh? [02:44] lol [02:44] rafaelscj: smartctl --all /dev/yourdisk [02:45] soreau, I have the ATI control centre installed, right now I have both screens the same [02:45] I would like the extended desktop [02:45] hello, i'm installing imagick on ubuntu and at the very last line of the installation it said "ERROR: `Make` FAILED" what should i do?!?! :'( [02:45] hey guys [02:45] macgyver_: So you're using clone mode currently and you want to extend the desktop to the other monitor [02:45] soreau, correct [02:45] xorg.conf only shows 1 screen though [02:46] garchonix, 258 non-contiguous files (19.8%). 19,8? [02:46] macgyver_: If you can't show what it says when you try to do that, I'm not sure I can be of much help [02:46] ARMENIAN, yea i was thinking that would help too, but i am on dialup here so i couldn't install anything [02:46] is there a way I can get a touchscreen monitor cheap or change one of my normal monitors to make it touchscreen? Will Ubuntu support it? Any guides? [02:46] MK13: ohh ok :P [02:46] Is there a way to make urbanterror use OSS4 (which I have installed and works with all other apps) instead of ALSA (which I removed)? [02:46] n00b question....do I need a samba user to set up between xp and ubuntu? Keep getting annoying login screen on xp [02:46] rafaelscj: that's high [02:47] paddy_melon: never seen a 'cheap' one. :) the ones i have tried.. are less then 'usefull' in many ways.. [02:47] soreau, basically I have the ATI drivers install and the ATI control centre, the control centre says I need xinerama enabled [02:47] I am unsure how to acheive that [02:47] Dr_Willis [02:47] why? [02:47] paddy_melon: Ebay. [02:47] can I mod mine though? [02:47] jjzooly: if you want xp to access 'shares' you install samba on the server [02:47] how i can compare the md5sum to check if the file is not corrupted? [02:47] I'm having some trouble installing ddclient properly... could someone help me troubleshoot this? [02:47] macgyver_: So enable xinerama? Pastebin your X log [02:47] EG put on like a touchscreen coating or something [02:47] ARMENIAN, i can't wait to get back to the university for >9MB/s d/l speeds :D [02:47] paddy_melon: There's no such thing. [02:47] rafaelscj: should be under 10% - 5% [02:48] when my system (or devices) goes to sleep, bluez no longer recognizes my devices without pairing them again. Does anyone know how to solve this? [02:48] paddy_melon: no idea on mods these days.. the things just are a tad gimmicky. using your finger to do fine 'pointing; often dosent work, and its a pain holding your arm up to do things.. [02:48] paddy_melon: unless you are using it for some specific appliocation. Like a Kiosk or similer [02:48] paddy_melon: The 'coating' is a thin film with intersecting conductors that contact each other and act as buttons. [02:48] but, I've seen people mod laptops to make em touchscreen [02:48] @Dr_Willis ...I have...I have it very simple. Browseable =yes guest ok =yes [02:48] MK13: lol I get 20 Mb/s down here so like 2.5 MB/s down [02:48] (im trying to do a desktop) [02:48] i still get the login [02:48] paddy_melon, ?? [02:49] jjzooly: give the linux users a samba password with 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERnAME' thats teh password to use when xp asks for one [02:49] yes bazhang? [02:49] garchonix, do you know how to schedule that task to be done at system startup [02:49] rafaelscj: mmm lemme check [02:49] return [02:49] jjzooly: they are not rying to connect as 'guest' they are trying to connect as their xp user name. [02:49] paddy_melon: The 'mod' probably involved either some sort of screen swap or an overlay that plugs into USB. [02:49] jjzooly: i use identical user names on xp and linux also. makes things easier [02:49] Overlay... [02:49] could I do that? [02:49] @Dr_Willis that will allow people to log in without a username or password on the network? I want to make it public without having the login screen [02:49] frensh? [02:49] anybody know how to get an application to use OSS instead of ALSA...?? [02:49] paddy_melon: Dunno. Google it. [02:50] OK thanks for ur help [02:50] jjzooly: read up pn the samba docs about 'guest shares' i think theres a few other settings you have to disable. [02:50] paddy_melon: Instructables might have something for ya. [02:50] thanks [02:50] I'll check it out [02:50] @dr_Willis thanks!! will do [02:50] jjzooly: theres some map invalid users to 'guest' option [02:50] DarwinSurvivor: Sometimes there is a config file in ~/, for instance ~/.gamename [02:50] !info samba-doc | jjzooly [02:50] jjzooly: samba-doc (source: samba): Samba documentation.

[02:51] soreau: there are a bunch of OSS to ALSA wrapper apps, where are the ones that go from ALSA to OSS?

[02:52] DarwinSurvivor: It doesn't work like that. Look in your home folder to see if there is a config file for the app you're trying to make use oss [02:53] specifically, I am stuck right now on how to set up a speech server. [02:53] soreau, yes I get XINERAMA XINERAMA [02:53] Dr_Willis: i was trying to pecl install imagick... then it gave me a ERROR make failed :( [02:53] soreau: it's UrbanTerror (Quake3 mode), and there is a folder, but nothing in there says alsa or oss (I grep'ed it) [02:53] does anyone here know how to make bluez recognize my bluetooth devices when the system or a device wakes up from standby? [02:53] macgyver_: Then I guess amdcccle is confused, no idea why though. [02:53] so ubuntu doesn't have anything to power down individual devices like hard drives as specific times? [02:54] DarwinSurvivor: Then ask the developers of said game(s) [02:54] spO: thers the various hdparm power saving settings.. you could try.. but my external usb drives handle that by theirselfs.. [02:54] rafaelscj still there? [02:54] soreau: i'm trying to. You said "it doesn't work that way" when I mentioned wrappers. Why would it be possible to wrap an OSS app to use ALSA but no the other way around? [02:55] DarwinSurvivor: No idea. Ask in #alsa [02:55] soreau, is there somewhere I can paste a screenshot? [02:55] macgyver_: omploader.org picpaste.com speedyshare.com [02:55] @Dr_Willis; ubottu: Thanks a million...one little security setting had to be adjusted. Found it in the docs.

[03:14] rafaelscj, i don't think that command will harm anything, as the "-n" is for read only operation [03:15] iow, you don't need to unmount before [03:15] Dr_Willis: I see this in the log http://pastebin.com/m17bed83c [03:15] DiViN3: It's got to do with named, I think...

[03:41] yes [03:41] did it work now? [03:41] joshtran: heh... are you sure you're typing precisely "/nick josh" (without quotes, and nothing else extraneous on the line? [03:41] joshtran: nope [03:41] Juan_a_Day: I'm sorry, but I don't have experience with that model. [03:41] joshtran: Err. No. [03:41] macgyver_: What does 'glxinfo -l|grep MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE' say? [03:41] I'm having problems with bluez. When my computer or a device paired with it goes on stand by, bluez no longer recognizes the device. I have to delete the device and pair again. Anyone have a solution to this problem? [03:41] joshtran: The proper format is /nick if it doesn't take, check your server messages. [03:41] Juan_a_Day: If for some reason you can't get help here, don't be discouraged. Try posting a topic at the UbuntuForums: http://ubuntuforums.org [03:41] joshtran: maybe the plain "josh" is already taken [03:42] josh is already in use [03:42] Grant-A: thank you [03:42] I just checked [03:42] ohhhh [03:42] dang it [03:42] soreau, --> GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE = 8192 === joshtran is now known as josht [03:42] Surlent777: heh [03:42] ok i got it to work now [03:42] josht: indeed you did :) [03:42] do u know how to change looding screen ? [03:42] yay!! i just turned 15 and am pretty new to ubuntu [03:42] josht: The beautiful world of CLI apps, no? ;) [03:43] macgyver_: Resolution shouldn't be an issue then. The official fglrx support channel is #ati but there's never anyone there. Try asking on the phoronix forums about your issue === rp3_ is now known as rp3 [03:43] yea i guess actually seems better than gui kinda [03:43] josht: Congratulations [03:43] ok will do [03:43] josht: do you happen to live in southern Arizona? [03:43] thanks for your assistance soreau [03:43] np [03:43] nope i live in southern california [03:43] Surlent777: You googled his IP address. No fair :P [03:43] haha one off [03:44] ive used ubuntu for 6 months and broke my system once already [03:44] i still love it tho [03:44] So I'm not looking at upgrading to 9.04 (from 8.10). Is there any way to roll back the change if I have problems? (I've heard of some issues with 3D games run through Wine not working) [03:44] josht: For off-topic chatting (I.E. not support related), go to #ubuntu-offtopic ;) [03:45] Surlent777: heh, ip geolocate shows los angeles, ca. :) could have saved yourself a question :P [03:45] indeed. I will make a note of that. [03:45] anyone in here willing to help with display rez problem on nvidia 9800gtx [03:46] does anybody know a good guide for a 15 year old for gimp?? i think its a bit too advanced [03:46] oh hell, I meant to ask...I ran into an interesting problem: Both Puppy Linux and the Ubuntu 9.04 LiveUSB are unable to pick up my hard drive all of a sudden. Just how bad a sign is that? [03:46] Pytlask: not easily (unless you just make a backup of the disk, and all that). best way is to run from livecd, try all the things you suspect would not work and make sure they work, and if they do, then you're ok. [03:47] josht: I would just try and go through the help file bit by bit, and just experiment. That's how I learned the basics myself. [03:47] kool and is that on gimps homepage? [03:47] no, it comes with it [03:47] noquinho: Apparently, you can't. there appears to be a bug in jaunty that keeps splashy from working. [03:47] josht: try googling for "gimp tutorial", you'll probably come up with a bunch of good stuff [03:47] noquinho: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/splashy/+bug/328089 [03:47] kool thanks very much === s is now known as Guest83310 [03:47] nanotube: THE SIMPLE THINGS ARE ESCAPING ME TONIGHT =( [03:48] Surlent777: hehe [03:48] hallo [03:48] !hi Guest83310 [03:48] Sorry, I don't know anything about hi Guest83310 [03:48] !hi |Guest83310 [03:48] Guest83310: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [03:48] hello [03:49] hehe, i like that silly little "!hi" command ;) [03:49] I would be more confused, but then I remembered that I turned off all /joins and /quits here [03:49] !hi [03:49] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [03:49] I like my !8-ball command [03:49] !8-ball [03:49] Sorry, I don't know anything about 8-ball [03:49] Surlent777: eh, it doesn't work, it seems :( [03:49] !msgthebot [03:49] Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". [03:50] part [03:50] 8-ball: is this a question? [03:50] 8-ball says: Very doubtful [03:50] Surlent777: 8-ball says: Outlook so so [03:51] hahaha [03:51] heh [03:51] josht: it's /part [03:51] josht: "/part" [03:51] josht: also google for "irc tutorial" :) [03:51] haha oops i was gonna just try it still reading the magazine [03:52] how would i find out if my netbook has a nvidia card [03:52] unsure [03:52] josht: all IRC commands are prefixed with a forward slash and accept parameters afterwards. For instance, /part Leaving would cause you to leave the room and print "Leaving" [03:52] ok [03:53] is ubuntu able to hibernate to a swap file? [03:53] webb_b: run "lspci" [03:53] MK13: yes, hibernate works [03:53] why are fonts so much bigger in ubuntu than windows? :/ [03:53] is it just my imagination? [03:53] everything looks huge [03:53] is it possible to scroll upward is irssi? [03:53] I need help with display rez problem on nvidia 9800gtx. Anyone in here ACTUALLY know anything?????? [03:53] So, both Puppy Linux and the Ubuntu 9.04 LiveUSB are unable to pick up my hard drive all of a sudden. Just how bad a sign is that? [03:53] josht: page up [03:54] Surlent777: sounds like a kernel issue... [03:54] unfortunately [03:54] echosystm: you can set them to whatever you want in system->preferences->appearance [03:54] Ademan: Both worked previously though, and neither has changed since last successful attempt [03:54] ohh thanks i thought u couldnt because the scroll bar [03:54] echosystm: but yes, the default gnome "look and feel" takes up more space than default windows look and feel [03:54] 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Memory Controller Hub (rev 03) [03:54] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) [03:54] 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) [03:54] where would i change the system-wide dpi ? [03:54] is that nvidia [03:55] wheres xconfig stored these days [03:55] webb_b: that would be an Intel card [03:55] k [03:55] thanks [03:55] np [03:55] echosystm: /etc/X11/xorg.conf. but it's pretty empty by default due to the fancy X autoconfig capability... [03:56] hm [03:56] so i cant set the system wide DPI in there? [03:56] is there a way to increase the maximum volume (for headphones) on my laptop? My roommate, who has the exact same laptop (but is running windows), can play stuff much louder than I can, so I doubt it's a software problem. This generally wouldn't be a problem, but I know someone who is hard of hearing and was wondering how to increase the max volume. [03:56] err, I doubt it's a hardware problem that is [03:56] echosystm: oh no, you can still set anything you want in there. xorg.conf is still read and parsed. only the parts that are not there get autoset. if you set something there, it will work. [03:56] echosystm: A command you may find useful for many things: locate, ie locate file.ext. Sometimes you need to manually update it's database via sudo updatedb, I think [03:56] err its* [03:57] thanks nanotube [03:57] beats the crap out of any of Windows' search tools, I tell you what [03:57] hi guys im having issues after doing: [03:57] "sudo pecl install imagick" the last line gave me this error: make: *** [imagick_helpers.lo] Error 1 ERROR: `make' failedi'm assuming there was a remaining incomplete install in the box since it gave that error. how do i clean it first? or do i have to do that? [03:58] echosystm: np [03:58] echosystm: one more thing [03:58] how many tabs can you have open in terminal? [03:58] if you go to sys -> prefs -> appearance -> fonts, and click "details", you can set the dpi in there too, without need to edit xorg.conf [03:58] josht: about as many as you'd ever want, so long as you have enough RAM [03:58] yeah i tried that [03:58] it doesnt seem to change anything [03:58] system default is 96px [03:59] i set it to 75, no change [03:59] echosystm: yea, that's what i have as default, too. [03:59] josht: assume it's infinite. number of tabs generally won't be an issue. [03:59] echosystm: hmm, never tried changing that so don't know, but maybe it would help to logout and log back in? [03:59] oh i was starting to worry that after a couplle it would crash or something like 20 tabs in firefox [03:59] whte is over new subject [03:59] echosystm: or restart x? [03:59] josht: You can also manage terminal tabs with the program "screen", although that's a bit more primitive and only really useful in a TTY (the thing you get when you press CTRL+ALT+F1 through F6. CTRL+ALT+F7 gets you back to X Windows) [04:00] that made no sense to me... sorry [04:00] Surlent777: screen rocks. :) i use it when sshing to remote machines. [04:00] let me try it [04:00] nanotube: I use it for irssi. In fact, I'm using it now in a TTY [04:00] Surlent777: heh ic [04:00] Surlent777: i'm an xchat guy when it comes to irc... :) [04:01] ctrl shift f1 makes a P for some reason [04:01] Ctrl+ALT+F1 [04:01] josht: ctl -ALT-f1 [04:01] josht: to get back, its ctl alt f7, fyi [04:01] oh ctrl alt sorry [04:01] Surlent777: oh, you already said that ;) [04:02] console stuff is awesome...makes you look like you know what you're doing =D [04:02] haha [04:02] do that and compile ksolitare or twin or something and they look at you like you're a hacker [04:03] wow that was weird just all terminal? [04:03] yes. Generally, no pictures [04:03] i can still do cli stuff? [04:03] Surlent777, often faster to get things done too [04:03] oh yes [04:03] Surlent777: hehe, even better is running cat /dev/random in a terminal ehhe [04:03] josht: CLI = Terminal = TTY = Console [04:03] ohhh ' [04:04] more or less anyway [04:04] i didnt know the difference [04:04] a TTY is a Console, and those are emulated by Terminals. All are CLIs [04:05] A Terminal is like a hole in X that lets you get to the Console/CLI backend that supports everything [04:05] so is there something where u boot into a tty for like old computers? [04:05] Surlent777: those terminals i think are called "vty" for "virtual terminal"... [04:05] Surlent777: all others are just terminals :) [04:05] josht: Sure. Just don't install gdm. [04:05] sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup calls the F1-F6 TTY's [04:06] I give up. This channel is filled with pompous ignoramuses unwilling to help anyone but their own. [04:06] totally d99d [04:06] or they could simply not know [04:06] since they're like [04:06] volunteers and crap [04:06] says the ignoramues [04:06] Surlent777: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:06] Yeah, well trying to help is at least something. [04:06] bruno123, we're users just like you. we're not paid by anyone [04:06] On the boinc manager thing, it seems to have an issue with the add project interface. The menu displaying available projects is much to small, only 1 project can fit in it, and it likes to show them between projects so you can't read most of them. [04:06] nanotube: your cat command is awesome =D [04:07] lol [04:07] Surlent777: well, a tty is any terminal emulator. run "tty" from a gnome-terminal, itll tell you the device for it, too... [04:07] Surlent777: hehe [04:07] 8-) :D '< [04:07] anyone know any usefull sites for someone learning c++ in linux? [04:07] No one is being paid....yeah I know that. How about some free advice on my prob. then? === Pytlask1 is now known as Pytlask [04:08] how about saying your problem? [04:08] do you guys have friends that give u help with ubuntu cause i know noone in real life who uses it [04:08] hey I need some kind of DV capture solution quickly that isn't kino [04:08] I think I have about 5 times...but here goes again: just intalled ubuntu 9.04 on two different pc's with same acer x193w monitor. Quad core has 9800 gtx+ nividia card and the AMD has 6200 nividia. Monitors are capable of 1440 x 900 but only the second (AMD) pc has that resolution by default. On the quad core/9800gtx I can only go up to 1360 x 768. ANy suggestions to get quad/gtx up to 1440x900? Thanks in advance. [04:08] I am filming the sunrise in timelapse [04:08] but kino seems to have permacrashed on me [04:09] josht, well that's why you should get your friends using it. all my family and friends use some sort of linux [04:09] nanotube: tty prints the file name of the terminal connected to standard input. I don't think that means that a tty is a terminal emulator in general, but this is all admittedly obscure and confusing === Ayita{Adon} is now known as Isla [04:09] kindofabuzz...there u go. Your thoughts? [04:09] !xorg.conf [04:09] The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [04:09] josht: I'm self-taught with the occasional help of these good people and Google [04:09] Surlent777: even better is /dev/urandom, produces more of the good stuff. :) [04:09] !xorg.conf | bruno123 [04:09] bruno123: please see above [04:09] !xorg.conf [04:10] nanotube: noted. I actually did that instead of /random cause I misread your post [04:10] well i found it from my cousin using in in vmware... got interested tried a live cd and know im in here after 6 months i still dont know much [04:10] bruno123: That's odd. I'd have expected the 6200 to be the one giving you problems. [04:10] :) :@ [04:10] josht: Look for the Ubuntu Pocket Guide. I think you can find it in Synaptic, actually === starcraft_ is now known as starcraftman [04:10] do i need to install a boot loader if ubuntu is my only os i am using? [04:10] josht: for commandline stuff specifically, check out linuxcommand.org [04:10] anyone able to help me? [04:10] how do you install the new firefox? [04:10] I the sun is getting close [04:10] sp0: I don't know of any other way to install Ubuntu; it automatically tends to install GRUB [04:10] r [04:11] I liked the old days when u could actually edit the whole xorg.conf . Now it is so sparse and more confusing if you was me...but I will check that site [04:11] josht, linux isn't like windows where you learn everything in a day. there is going to be a learning curve. but once you're comfortable with it, goodbye windows [04:11] isn't lilo no longer supported? [04:11] Bob_Dole: It probably is, but I have no idea how to use it [04:11] bruno123, umm you can edit xorg.conf [04:11] kindofabuzz: Not everything is listed thanks to the autoconfig stuff is what he means [04:11] canthus13 yeah really odd. [04:11] oblenob: Did you try to uninstall and reinstall kino? [04:11] its basically goodbye windows i havent booted in 2 months but whenever people come over and want to use my laptop i boot into windows for them [04:11] yup [04:12] oblenob: hm... don't know anything about kino... but maybe try to see if you can get the freshest version installed? or try what canthus13 said... [04:12] kindofabuzz josh977 : you can learn ubuntu as quickly as you can learn windows (you just can't learn the shell as quickly) [04:12] surlent, you can click on advance and not install it [04:12] sp0: I know, but as I said, I don't know how that'd work [04:12] oblenob: Not sure then. [04:12] kindofabuzz yes I know....but I liked it better back when all the info was in there instead of just "Configured Monitor" etc. [04:12] canthus13: I had been recording a timelapse all day today of the sky and it seems to be crashing trying to re-import thr file [04:12] but I don't want to delete it [04:12] oblenob: All day? is the partition holding the files full? [04:12] nope [04:12] josht: Get compiz working and that'll blow anyone away =D Also google for Tombuntu XWinWrap Compiz [04:13] bruno123, run sudo nvidia-xconfig then sudo nvidia-settings, make your resolution changes then hit apply to config [04:13] josht: It lets you use a video or xscreensaver as a background [04:13] will try that...thanks [04:13] * Bob_Dole hasn't run windows on any of his main boxes in a year or 3...well, there were a few in virtual machines, but those don't count.. [04:13] does anyone know how to install the new firefox, or is it just a simple drop and replace. its a tarball not an executable - hence my dilemma [04:13] Tyrath, its in the repos [04:13] i have compiz working its AMAZING love it but cant get anything to record it properly... [04:13] !ff35 | Tyrath [04:13] Tyrath: Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 and firefox-3.5-gnome-support | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY [04:13] oblenob: kino 1.3.3 is available http://www.kinodv.org/article/static/1 maybe try it? [04:14] bazhang: thanks :) [04:14] Tyrath: If you open the .tar, there's usually a text file marked INSTALL that should be able to guide you...or you could go to those sites there, yeah =/ [04:14] Tyrath, just extract it wherever and then run ./firefox in that dir, if you want to use a new profile then ./firefox -P [04:14] But I went to windows, then mac, then Linux...but while I windows I switched between windows and linux about once every other month. [04:14] there is no install from the firefox tar [04:14] bazhang: what's up with these shortened urls in there? i hate those, you never know where they're taking you... [04:14] josht: Try gtk-recordmydesktop [04:14] just run ./firefox like i said [04:14] back later. Thanks. [04:15] nanotube, they are done by the Ubuntu irc team [04:15] Surlent777 kindofabuzz : thanks for the help, but I'll just install from the repo ;) [04:15] bazhang: well, in that case: you hear this, ubuntu irc team, shortened urls suck!! :P [04:15] Tyrath, ok take the easy way, but you'll never learn how to install anything if you don't try it sometime =) [04:15] kindofabuzz: hehe [04:16] kindofabuzz: I've installed a lot of applications from source, so really, I don't need the practise :P [04:16] haha start with Aldrin on a 64-bit machine and tell me if you get it to work [04:16] nanotube, kindofabuzz lets keep it on topic please [04:16] does anyone know how to record compix effects like the cube without black bars randomly running through it? [04:16] Tyrath, then what hard about extracting the files then typing ./firefox? sorry bazhang [04:16] josht: not really, but --one sec, k? [04:17] bazhang: talking about ubottu's help messages /is/ on topic, i think [04:17] nay gphoto2 tethered shooters here? [04:17] nay/any [04:17] kindofabuzz: because I didn't untar it in command, I used the GUI, and consequently it looked like a bunch of folders. (couldn't see a configure file off a first glance) [04:18] josht: I just tried gtk-recordmydesktop and it seemed to deal with the cube ok [04:18] kindofabuzz: also. there's no point installing it from source if it's in the repo [04:18] Tyrath: it's a binary package, so no need to configure. [04:18] josht, what do you like about compiz? [04:18] nanotube: ah k [04:19] kindofabuzz: unless the repo version is buggy, which I doubt it would be with firefox [04:19] I wish I could use Opera on Ubuntu again [04:19] Tyrath: but at any rate - indeed, try the repos, see if it does it for you. also look for the firefox PPA, which has the latest firefox testing packages. also look for ubuntuzilla.here's a good page explaining all alternatives: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion [04:19] Irssi --The best irc client ever? [04:19] yes [04:19] nanotube: I've already installed, but thanks :) [04:20] Tyrath: ok, then you're good :) [04:20] josh___: though xchat is my favorite GUI client [04:20] Surlent777 josh___ Konversation :) [04:20] I had pidgin up for a while, but it just doesn't have the feel I'm looking for. [04:21] josh___: bitlbee is a light, quick chat client, only I don't know if it has support for GoogleTalk, Facebook, etc. [04:21] josh___: Pidgin I only use for AIM and Facebook. IRC is almost always irssi [04:21] josh___: actually, you need irssi to use bitlbee [04:21] hi e-nerd here [04:21] im.bitlbee.org [04:21] amazingly useful [04:22] it's awesome. only im not sure if you can set it up to auto connect to servers [04:22] all your non-social-site-using friends in one tab [04:22] Ever since time warner dropped newsgroups, I stopped using them. Anyone here have suggestions where I might be able to get alt.os.linux [04:22] but you can definitately set it up to auto execute commands for servers [04:23] josh___: I think I recall seeing something in Synaptic about newsgroups. Take a look in there [04:23] anyhow. i should do some work on my thesis. all the best. ciao [04:23] for some reason sudo command doesnt work on ubuntu 9 for ps3 [04:23] I'll check it out, thanks [04:24] it says the user is not in the sudoers file? This is the latest ubuntu for the ps3 [04:24] josh___, didn't Google purchase the newsgroups? [04:24] mason: only the first user you made is in the 'sudoers' groups [04:24] it is the first user [04:25] josh___, http://groups.google.com/ [04:25] thanks kindofabuzz. I'll look and see if they support nntp [04:26] josh___, i don't think they do [04:27] josh, you could use wine to run mirc [04:27] or you could use xchat =D [04:28] anyone know how to disable the exit fullscreen function for flash [04:28] sorry exit fullscreen when I click on another window [04:28] I don't think you can change that =/ [04:29] it drives me nuts ... i like to watch videos while i'm working [04:29] hi [04:29] same fail with new kino [04:29] I have a computer with a soft raid. the partition does not show up in gparted using a 9.04 livecd. will dmraid give me the support I need [04:29] adelie42: md raid? [04:30] zroysch: how do I check? not certain [04:30] adelie42: well how do you know its software raid [04:31] do any of you use ethernet bonding for two ehternet cards? [04:31] zroysch: because both disks show up as unpartitioned sda and adb [04:31] sdb* [04:31] adelie42: any disk would do that [04:31] spO, I bridge two connections w/ my router [04:32] adelie42: how did you setup the raid [04:32] purple, two ips or one ip?

[04:54] I havent had to use cedega in years.. - wine does most all the games i want now a days. [04:54] Alright, so here's the basis. My computer has stopped detecting my cd drive. I've run firmware and everything to try to get it to detect it again. Nothing's worked. I also don't have a usb drive. I currently am dual booting XP and ubuntu, but I need to reinstall windows XP. Is there anyway I can do this from ubuntu? [04:54] Dr_Willis: Can you name off a few games you've gotten working to your satisfaction? [04:54] im trying to run anarchy online but wine seems to have issues with the updater, ive read that cedega supports better [04:54] BeWop ubuntu and windows cant see cd drive or just windows? === marsha is now known as mdg [04:54] Both [04:54] It doesn't even detect it in the bios [04:55] BeWop: sounds to me like the drive is definitely bad [04:55] I've tried multiple drives [04:55] BeWop: Replace it asap [04:55] oh? [04:55] hmm [04:55] A brand new one isn't working [04:55] Then it isn't a windows/ubuntu problem. Have you checked cables? [04:55] The firmware doesn't detect it [04:55] Yeah [04:55] BeWop: tried a new cable? [04:55] ive had this problem before bewop, it sems if i remember correctly it had something to do with missing drivers [04:55] nvm [04:55] Reconnected cables, tried new ones [04:55] possible motherboard failure then? [04:55] Reinstalled drivers [04:55] what type of computer BeWop? Age etc.? [04:55] Surlent777: grandtheft auto worked well for me. and i finally did get Lord of the rings onlne working. [04:55] Dell Dimension 2400 [04:56] Don't know how old [04:56] 5 years old or so? [04:56] Problably [04:56] hmm, i gave up and started running vista again, windows 7 has issues with cd/dvd drives also [04:56] Dr_Willis: I've tried to get Supreme Commander working, but it's laggy and slow for no reason. Is there ways to tweak wine to work better with more hardcore stuff like that? I have so far found nothing of use =/ [04:56] ah mplayer is driving me insane, it starts+exits fullscreen when I ever I play or stop a video. How can I stop this? [04:57] Surlent777: chedk the wine app database [04:57] My main question is is it possible to reinstal xp from ubuntu using an iso? [04:57] !appdb [04:57] The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help [04:57] ah, right, I always forget about that [04:57] thanks [04:57] surlent777 doing that requires tweeks to wine's version of regedit i think. google that string youll have luck [04:57] Surlent777: I recall that game beubng laggy on my windows machine.. I never did get past like the 3rd level of it.. :) [04:57] Anyone know if it's possible? [04:57] haha I was on the 2nd Aeon campaign in Windows. It ran awesomely though [04:58] BeWop, probably not but ##windows would have better answers [04:58] BeWop, what do you mean? install XP while in Ubuntu? no you can't [04:58] BeWop, I doubt it. [04:58] BeWop: Not unless you were to somehow get your XP disc as a bootable USB disc [04:58] so nothing on cedega? [04:58] Alright [04:58] it is not likely that two ethernet cards would have the same hardware address even if they were part of the same motherboard would they? [04:58] That's not hard [04:58] Thanks [04:58] I'll just get a usb drive then [04:59] bewop you can do surlents suggestion with nlite i think [04:59] seriously? You can do that? [04:59] There's tons of guides out there [04:59] Yeah [04:59] =D awesome [04:59] USB Flash drive start up disk [04:59] Google it =P [04:59] I always used Unetbootin for Linux stuff [04:59] spO, i guess it's possible but very unlikely [04:59] See ya [04:59] later [04:59] mplayer starts and exits fullscreen when I ever I play or stop a video. How can I stop this? [04:59] ifconfig is reporting two ethernet cards, that have the same hardware address, one is eth0 and the other is eth0_rename [04:59] get vlc instead of mplayer [05:00] I prefer Xine [05:00] mplayer gives me no end of grief [05:00] instead of eth1 , i am supposed to have two different hardwares [05:00] especially in console mode [05:00] spo get aircrack-ng and use airmon-ng to change the addresses [05:01] hi [05:01] anyone from singapore?

[05:37] bcurtiswx: well the main thing is that it's open source :) unfortunatly the propritary closed source networks such as MSN, AIM, and Yahoo are the most used [05:37] so I just simply replace fglrx with radeon in xorg?

[05:49] .... [05:49] my bad ubuntu linux that is [05:49] Desktop version works fine, syntax, just like any OS [05:49] Any x86 OS designed to use the legacy BIOS* [05:50] (such as windows, linux, etc) [05:50] oh ok thankz [05:50] syntax: have you got a laptop/notebook or a netbook? [05:51] * Bob_Dole runs the UNR on one of his desktops, actually. [05:51] !splashscreen [05:51] To change the Gnome splash screen, use gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor. [05:51] Well my friend has one and it runs slow on his..hez got 2 gigs of ram [05:52] anyone able to maybe help me out with an apache question? [05:52] any benefit to using x86_64 over x86? I've noticed a considerable increase in RAM usage on x64 but not that much performance diff. [05:52] syntax, the Netbook remix runs fast on a 1.8ghz Pentium 4 with 512MB of RAM, and also runs fast on a 1.6ghz intel ATOM, with 1GB of RAM. [05:53] Hi, I'm trying karmic atm and I tried doing an install on flashplayer-installer, all the time I get this error: update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for iceape-flashplugin. [05:53] scuttlebutt; yes [05:53] from what i understand, the only difference about using x86_64 is that it has more bits with which to address RAM blocks [05:54] Scuttlebutt, what's your apache ? [05:54] purplenurple, the 64bit version has the advantage of more memory available if installed. You aren't limited to ~3.5GB of RAM(4GB installed will often report as 3.5GB, or less) [05:55] What is a 'ULi Driver'? (in http://www.nvidia.com/page/uli_drivers.html) [05:55] Bob_Dole, in top I show 3894 on a machine w/ 4Gig's is that normal? Why not all 4Gigs? [05:56] http://www.nforcershq.com/uli-drivers-available-from-nvidia/ [05:56] seems to be a company. [05:56] purplenurple, That's normal, and because, I believe "memory mapped I/O" where it uses part of the 4GB the 32bit address space can access for In/Out interfaces. [05:56] how the heck do i close different terminal session in "screen" ??? [05:57] Bob_Dole, thanks [05:58] I just added a user to my freebsd machine but he can access a mounted NFS share to an opensolaris machine in the file system that I don't want him to access.

[07:04] @te, this is a ruby script, probably obvious but you made sure the path was correct as well right? [07:04] ye other are here [07:04] ko hieu [07:04] shahzad: most likely you need to add their sources [07:04] system-administration-software sources [07:05] but i installed ubuntu 2 months ago and in that i found the whole list which i need now in the fresh installed [07:05] shahzad ok so you need more packages than your seeing? [07:05] what version are you on? 9.04 or 8.10? or which? the name is ok too - jaunty, hardy, etc [07:05] 9 jaunty [07:06] any solution dear nippz or lava [07:08] how could i add system-admin-software sources of all the packages available for ubuntu 9 [07:08] I'm having a problem with sound. When ever I listen to any music (on any media player) or watch any video (even youtube) the sound starts to skip and jump around. What would cause this, and how could I fix it? [07:08] NiPpZ???? [07:09] shahzad yeah [07:09] sorry doing multiple things here [07:09] shahzad, you may want to check the software sources in admin controls to ensure all the boxes are checked on the "ubuntu software" tab [07:09] i can give you my sources list [07:09] did you install medubuntu yet? [07:10] yeah i hav checked all of them lava [07:10] fg56lx: do you know which driver you are using, alsa, oss? [07:10] no [07:10] LavaBearBurke: Alsa [07:10] how z it medubuntu nipz?

[07:11] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu <<--- then that [07:11] then update [07:11] then if you still dont see your package its probably not in the normal repos [07:11] but what was the pacakge again and i'll see if i see it [07:12] LavaBearBurke: "HDA Nvidia (analog)" "HDA Nvidia (digital)" "Pluseaudio" [07:12] gcc, tcl, tk, g++ related packages [07:12] fg56lx: i'd try each one, and play sound, and see if it improves [07:13] for the sound playback option [07:13] shahzad ive no problem with gcc g++ [07:13] LavaBearBurke: They all skip. [07:13] these are the most important ones but there are many others which i could see in the last installed operating system but now i unable to find them [07:13] your probably not having your sources and universe and multiverse enabled in your system > software sources [07:13] what about tk [07:13] * credobyte is away: Gone away for now [07:13] * credobyte is back.

[07:33] there were a great number of available softwares now it is a very short list as compare to the prev one [07:33] Is transmission supposed to lag if left on for too long?

And also, Idk. I've never used netbeans [08:24] Apollo2366: Nope, what do you use? Eclipse? [08:25] hello..? how do i install a package from a specific url? "sudo pecl install imagick" installs 2.3.x but i wanna install 2.2 from http://pecl.php.net/get/imagick-2.2.2.tgz is it possible? :( [08:25] m0r0n, I try to stay away from IDE's. I've always just used a text editor and a CLI compiler. With java, I used the one that came with the SDK [08:27] Apollo2366: I'm still learning so errors are common as you just saw, so finding errors with an IDE will kill me [08:29] m0r0n, I'd recommend staying away from an IDE until you really have use of it. That is to say when you're developing very large applications. [08:30] Apollo2366: Ok so say I wrote some code in a text, how would I comple and run it? [08:30] what does "!" do in bash? [08:30] Uh, first try "man javac" in terminal and see if it comes up with anything. That's the command in windows. Idk if it's the same in ubuntu [08:31] m0r0n, inb4 [08:31] m0r0n, what don't you go to #java or something like that? [08:31] sudo find /vol/{lib,log}/mysql ! -user root -print0 | xargs -0 -r chgrp mysql <--- what does the "!" do ? [08:32] quizme: ! is logical not, so it means not owned by user root [08:33] quizme, ask in #bash, they should know [08:33] nvm, just saw Dulak's answer [08:33] quizme, like != means not equal [08:33] quizme find's ! negates next [08:33] oh thanks [08:35] hello all [08:35] hello [08:36] I'm having a problem with sound. When ever I listen to any music (on any media player) or watch any video (even youtube) the sound starts to skip and jump around. What would cause this, and how could I fix it? [08:37] after my computer's been on for an extended time, audio stops working. volume is up including pcm. where to start trouble shootnig? === janne is now known as Skiessi [08:37] fg56lx packet lag from the net? i get taht too when i'm downl;oading too much [08:37] Quiznos: it happens even when the only program i have open is w/e media player im using. [08:37] hmm ok [08:38] fg56lx on dialup? :) [08:38] Quiznos: No. And what does that have to do with playing media i already have on my drive? [08:38] how do i doo this? -> m using the current stable imagemagick package, but I must have unmasked [08:38] pecl-imagick a long time and forgotten about it. I removed the entry from my [08:38] keywords file and all is well. [08:38] quick question (I am fighting with xorg right now) how do I set my machine to start and NOT load GDM? I would like to have to typre "startx" [08:39] oh; ok , what about cpu too busy or IO too busy? [08:39] fg56lx [08:39] I'm loving the look of Ubuntu, only problem sometimes the screen goes scrambled [08:39] macgyver change the initdefault in etc/inittab if it's currently :5: [08:39] Quiznos: Thats what I thought too. But it never goes over 15-20 % cpu usage while its doing this odd skipping [08:39] hello [08:40] fg56lx ok, what else is running? [08:40] fg56lx q.v. usr/bin/iostat [08:40] Ciao a tutti [08:41] Quiznos: "q.v" [08:41] ? [08:41] quod vide (latin for which see) [08:41] I want RL 3 yes? [08:41] 3 is good [08:41] non-gooey run level [08:41] Quiznos, cheers [08:41] yw [08:41] friggin xorg driving me mad [08:42] hmm [08:42] I dont have an /etc/inittab [08:42] I'm trying to run gtk-gnutella to be used over SSH via CLI. The only documentation I can find refers to the GUI interface. Does anyone know where can I find how to use this application from CLI? [08:42] frogzoo1: error: 'CosineEvaluateOperator' undeclared (first use in this function) on sudo pecl install imagick [08:42] Quiznos: Im a bit confused about what youre asking me to do. [08:43] Will 32 bit Ubuntu download work in an 64 bit architecture [08:43] fg56lx IO would be a serious bottleneck, after being the expected one too. iostat would show what is causing neck [08:43] Blizzerand: yes [08:43] ee99ee: man? [08:43] fg56lx iostat is similiar in what it does compared to netstat, lsof and fuser [08:44] fg56lx it shows who is doing what [08:44] lstarnes : So what is the need of providing 32 or 64 bit option at the bottom of the download page [08:44] Blizzerand: the 32-bit version can't access certain processor features that require 64 bits [08:45] Blizzerand: for example, most 32-bit operating systems only support up to about 4 GB of RAM [08:45] Quiznos: Ok, installed that and ran that, what am I looking for? [08:45] Blizzerand: but 64-bit ones can access far more [08:45] lstarnes : oh [08:45] fg56lx hogs [08:45] Nothing is unusually high. [08:46] ok [08:46] check free output [08:46] hello..? how do i install a package from a specific url? "sudo pecl install imagick" installs 2.3.x but i wanna install 2.2 from http://pecl.php.net/get/imagick-2.2.2.tgz is it possible? :( [08:46] blognewb_, download the tgz [08:46] Quiznos: What is free output? [08:46] mem usage [08:46] bazhang: im using PuTTy [08:47] install via PuTTy...? [08:47] blognewb_: download the tgz with wget [08:47] blognewb_: use wget [08:47] blognewb_, wget [08:47] wget http://pecl.php.net/get/imagick-2.2.2.tgz like that? [08:47] how can i setting sound in my laptop presario cq35 for ubuntu 9.04 [08:47] blognewb_: yes [08:47] blognewb_: yes [08:47] no need for sudo? [08:47] blognewb_: why? [08:48] sudo pecl wget http://pecl.php.net/get/imagick-2.2.2.tgz [08:48] ? [08:48] blognewb_: wget is a download-manager [08:48] blognewb_: not an installer [08:48] blognewb_: man wget [08:48] im a dumb [08:48] blognewb_, wget is a downloader [08:48] blognewb_: just downlad the package with wget, extract it, look for a readme to install [08:48] iceroot: via putty? [08:48] blognewb_: why not? [08:49] Quiznos: Im almost 100% sure it has absolutely nothing to do with something killing my resources. Like i said, nothing is insanely high and a dual core amd machine with 3gb ram shouldnt have a problem with simple audio playback, [08:49] blognewb_: with ssh (putty) you have full system-features like your a sitting infront of the pc [08:49] fg56lx ok [08:49] fg56lx perhaps the sound data is disorderly? [08:49] man this is driving me insnae [08:50] insane even [08:50] me too [08:50] Quiznos: In the actual media file? [08:50] blognewb_: but why need an old version? using apt-get is much better (and safer because of updates) [08:50] yes [08:51] iceroot: because i am getting an error "make not found [08:51] fg56lx we've eliminated alot so far; if its not the data then its the app that has a prob [08:51] blognewb_: sudo apt-get install make [08:51] anyone knows why i can't give focus to a window by clicking inside it? focusing only works if i click on the titlebar [08:51] i meant "ERROR: `make' failed [08:51] @iceroot [08:51] puremichael use another wm that does twhat youwant [08:51] blognewb_: why need make if you install with apt-get? [08:51] i have build-essentials [08:51] Quiznos: Its not the data. I've played all these files countless times before and they have never had problems. And it does it on every app I have. [08:52] iceroot: uh [08:52] fg56lx ok [08:52] iceroot: http://pastebin.com/m74ca08ae [08:52] Quiznos, up until yesterday it worked in default ubuntu [08:52] fg56lx that leaves hardware. [08:52] 1 x laptop with external display, I get 2 desktops with tool bars on both screens, I cannot move an open application to screen 2, and if I open an application on screen 2 it actually opens up on screen 1!!! WTF??? [08:52] im frustrated [08:52] puremichael then undo the change you made [08:52] Quiznos: I couldn't see why it would break already, This machine isnt even 4 months old. [08:52] fg56lx like, parity error [08:53] fg56lx yea [08:53] And, audio on live cds run fine. [08:53] is there a virus scanner app that could scan music files for win32 viruses [08:53] fg56lx stray neutron? [08:53] http://forums.cpanel.net/f7/imagemagick-pecl-install-breaks-126257.html [08:54] fg56lx if not that then it's God; are you playing the music backwards and worshipping created things? L:)~ [08:54] blognewb_: i will have a look [08:54] thanls! [08:54] sigh i couldnt fix this since 4pm today [08:54] i meant ive been tryin to look for a soln since 4 [08:56] does anyone here have a Toshiba laptop, running 9.04 and using an external display? [08:56] !anyone | macgyver_ [08:56] macgyver_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [08:56] blognewb_: hm, looks strange [08:56] ye im so unfortunate [08:57] iceroot, that IS my question [08:57] :) [08:57] my next question would be how the hell did they get it to work [08:57] becuase for 3 weeks now, nothin.... [08:57] driving me mad! [08:57] macgyver_: ... just ask what you are doing, what are the erros and so on [08:58] I did [08:58] 1 x laptop with external display, I get 2 desktops with tool bars on both screens, I cannot move an open application to screen 2, and if I open an application on screen 2 it actually opens up on screen 1!!!

Can anyone tell me what a partial upgrade is? Will it actually upgrade my distribution version? [08:59] i still have yet to try lulz [08:59] wait [08:59] fg56lx i'm crashing, gotta sleep. good luck [08:59] my frostwire install fails to run, here's the CLI output: [09:00] macgyver_: so you dont want to clone, you want extend your desktop with 1 xserver (one gnome running)? [09:00] vir1omi, you checked that it's not a corrupt frostwire download, right? [09:00] iceroot: didn't work :\ [09:00] Also, I have an old Gateway 2000, Pentium III 1 GHz, 512 MB RAM, GeForce2 MX, and a lot of HD. Any suggestions on what version of Ubuntu to put on it? It's running kinda slow on 8.04. [09:01] "You should explicitly select one to install. [09:01] iceroot, correct [09:01] ejv: Package libmagick9-dev has no installation candidate" [09:01] macgyver_: can you paste your xorg.conf? [09:01] ar10: how would i go about checking that? [09:01] iceroot, we did try and enable xinerama but I just get a black screen instead of X [09:02] vir1omi, try downloading it again, and see if that fixes it. [09:02] iceroot, http://pastebin.com/d4b072518 [09:02] ar10, he did. It fixed it. [09:02] ar10, if the website you downloaded it from has its md5sum, it can be checked without re-downloading [09:03] iceroot, be right back, wife needs me (preggers and all that stuff... must obey) [09:03] Apollo2366, alright. I'm curious, how did you find out? ;) [09:04] ar10, Pidgin [09:04] macgyver_: tried sudo aticonfig --initial=dual-head --screen-layout=right ?

[09:11] can you explain more [09:12] there is this file called parallels-server-3.0.2150.92060.run but i don't know how to use it. [09:12] sounds like mac [09:12] Ok QUestion. is there a disc i can make with all the ubuntu packages on it. So i can not have to download from internet [09:12] when i go to certain sites on ubuntu, i am unable to access the pages, but when i access it using windows in virtual box (on the same machine), I am able to go to these pages... [09:12] cause i dont have wifi on ubuntu yet [09:13] REEFER! [09:13] you SOB [09:13] BRANDON [09:13] Brandon: do chmod +x parallels-server-3.0.2150.92060.run and then run it [09:13] okay [09:13] trying it now. [09:13] Is there a package disk i can make? [09:13] Cause i currently dont have internet i use unsecured wifi [09:13] and i cant find networks on ubuntu [09:14] only on windows [09:14] MiKeY what version of Ubuntu are you using? [09:14] Brandon, parallels is a virtualization app for osX [09:14] 9.04 [09:15] iceroot, yeps, I tried tried sudo aticonfig --initial=dual-head --screen-layout=right thats how I got the current config [09:15] yeah but there is a parallels for Linux yet.. [09:16] hi there...does anyone know of there's a way to put a semi-transparent background panel behind some conky text? [09:17] mikebeecham: not sure thats doable.. You might be able to force conky to be semi-transparent also... but i doubt it. [09:17] hmmm [09:17] http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-setup-parallels-virtualization-software-in-ubuntu.html Brandon [09:17] Dr_Willis: thanks anyway :( [09:17] mikebeecham: could alwyas check the conky forums. [09:17] Dr_Willis: will do that [09:17] mikebeecham: ya got to rember the conky was around befor transparent stuff was common :) [09:18] okay when i do it i get this error.. The software require the hardware virtualization, technology (VTx or AMD-V). [09:19] Brandon: what software.. ? :) [09:20] Brandon: why not using virtualbox? (dont know parallels) [09:21] never used virtualbox i think.. [09:21] Virtualbox works quite well. [09:21] Brandon: try it :) its a good one (and in the repos) [09:21] and how do i get said Virtualbox? [09:21] Brandon: there is a free version without usb-support and a not-free version with usb-support (free as in freedom) [09:22] !virtualbox | Brandon [09:22] Brandon: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [09:22] salve [09:22] hi guys [09:22] hi [09:22] Brandon, from the repos; sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose [09:22] !x86 > ice_cream [09:22] Sorry, I don't know anything about x86 [09:23] ice_cream: x86 = all architektus like 386, 486, 586, 686 [09:23] i guess i'm wondering what isnt x86 [09:23] if virtualbox-guest software is installed its much faster than qemu with kqemu, imho! [09:23] * ice_cream nods [09:23] ice_cream: x86 includes all 32 bit arch processors [09:23] Hmm.. Vitualbox is so easy to get going.. i gave up trying qemu :) [09:23] but i think i recall something about amd64 arch also being able to run x86 stuff [09:23] * sriramoman agrees with Dr_Willis [09:24] 64bit virtualbox can do 32bit os's :) [09:24] sriramoman: wrong, x86 != all 32bit cpus [09:25] iceroot: I wasn't sure if there's some exclusion in the list [09:25] sriramoman: ppc is also 32bit, like some sparcs [09:25] vijay1: you may ask doubts here [09:25] but old sparcs [09:26] pretty much every processor these days can handle an OS made for x86? [09:26] except for the ARM ones :) [09:26] hw to install themes in ubuntu [09:26] ice_cream: yes, you cant buy sparc on normal ways, and ppc died [09:26] ok, thx [09:27] Dr_Willis: ah yes, forgot arm [09:27] PPC's not dead.. its just.. gotten very.. weird... [09:27] :P [09:27] Dr_Willis: its dead :) [09:27] vijay1: go to gnome-look.org [09:27] ps3 runs ppc ..hardly dead [09:27] iceroot: its in the PS3 so its not dead yet! :0 [09:27] they just decided to fancyify the name [09:28] Dr_Willis: hm, that is 100% ppc? [09:28] iceroot: 800% i think.. it has 8 cell processors that are ppc if i recall right. :) [09:28] Dr_Willis: ok, so let me correct. in the pc-world, ppc is dead [09:29] The best way to use Windows on my ubuntu is using VMWare server? [09:29] tomoyuki28jp: [09:29] tomoyuki28jp: i run windows in virtualbox on linux [09:29] vijay1: then select the theme under your desired type [09:29] Does anyone know what a 'partial upgrade' means? [09:29] vmware can do it also. [09:29] tomoyuki28jp: no, its virtualbox [09:29] tomoyuki28jp: or wvware workstation [09:29] vijay1: you have variety of configs like icon themes, wallpapers etc [09:29] Synaptic is insisting that I should run one before installing any package updates. [09:29] Dr_Willis: iceroot: root_: I will try virtualbox. thanks a lot! [09:32] Dr_Willis: ok i have looked up. its really ppc in the ps3. nice to know [09:33] irc.debian.org [09:33] iceroot: a whole munch of them...

I have a wifi setup, but I cannot change the channel one of the clients is on [09:53] man, thos crackling is quite annoying [09:53] any ideas? [09:53] b0nn: you're router runs on a single channel usually, not multiple [09:54] so you dont change the channel of a client, you change the channel of the router.

[09:55] look on the router, could be any [09:55] 1-12 [09:55] b0nn: you can use iwconfig to set the channel in an ad-hoc network [09:55] what router? [09:55] yes [09:55] iwconfig wlan0 channel 1-11 [09:55] but [09:56] iwlist scan shows the channel as 7, even though I have set it to 4 [09:56] b0nn: if I remember correctly, you have to do an ifdown and ifup after the iwconfig to reread the info [09:56] yes [09:57] what's the best solution to mounting an .iso in order to install it through WIne?

[10:10] You need to use the proper mount command and the 'loop' option then. [10:10] onats: I think the -t for fat16 is 'msdos', but don't quote me on that [10:10] IF its a whole hard drive You also need to give some sort of offset if theres more then 1 partition. [10:10] I saw that in an example in a magazine some time back.

[10:17] Dr_Willis, yes, i used offset.. here's the way the image looks: http://pastebin.ca/1515539 [10:19] could be ya got the offset wrong. I only had to do this once ages ago.. i saw a example/guide on how to do it in a Knoppix artical once. [10:19] I think you can do a fdisk -l imagefile [10:19] to get some info also.. but i dont recall how you calculate the proper offset. [10:20] what are you trying to do?

[10:59] and the iso is automatically bootable? [10:59] introuble: Get a program for CD burning (ImgBurn, Nero, thousands of others), point it to the .iso file.

[11:01] introuble: if you don't have any, ImgBurn would be one of the best options. [11:01] is it better than nero? [11:01] i check it out [11:02] this might be a bit of an odd question, but [11:03] I was wondering what safe/valid characters for a directory name would be [11:04] so can i also burn xp with imgburn? [11:04] for the system I'm setting up I'll probably have all sorts of weird strings thrown at me for places to store stuff, I was thinking base64 might work well [11:05] though I'm wondering if having a directory start with - or + or something might totally throw things off === MadMax is now known as Guest25195 [11:06] Swords2: You can't use the slash (/).

[11:07] Hey, when I pop in my USB hdd it gets mounted read-only, so I can't write to it [11:07] Why is that? How can I change that? [11:08] Swords2: Some characters can cause problems with some applications, such as \ < > ? * " ' (and especially newlines), so it would be better to avoid them. [11:08] yes, that was what I was thinking [11:09] especially since base64 uses - and + in addition to uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric, it seems problematic [11:09] + and - aren't bad [11:09] like if a directory started with - [11:09] "mkdir -bleh" [11:09] mkdir -- -bleh [11:09] mkdir ./-bleh [11:09] ah, alright.

I just select the user and it logs in automatically after say 30 seconds ? [11:13] thats one way.. [11:13] just like that, without password or anything ?

That's strange, what if that user doesn't exist on the other system? [11:26] sounds like having very similer passwords are triggering security things.

If I would have to solve it multiple times, I would write a script. [12:06] I have a Ubuntu minimal install, with just a X-server.

In general you can assume that with the same kernel version it will probably work. [12:12] sash_: isn't that just unzip? [12:12] I am newbie here ! and I have no idea about IRC channels etc [12:12] yea, problem is that i dont have internet on that very computer, so have to download them on this pc instead [12:12] and new to linux world too [12:12] k, thx [12:12] sash_: because unzip seems to be a different project.

Since I don't like that, I will check whether I can find another solution. [12:17] noone can help me tho [12:17] What could be the reason that after choosing a slot in truecrypt a mount directory is not shown? [12:17] Technocrat-Amit, when speaking to someone directly, start the line with their name is usual custom) you can auto-complete names using tab.. for EG: to talk to me, type "b3" then hit tab [12:17] tavi_ dont know if you can always change it, maybe coded into the site?

[12:18] Guest58599: I don't know which one you should take, but please select on drivers that are in the kernel already. [12:18] b3rz3rk3r: As you know I am newbie in linux desktop computing and so I picked ubtuntu.

[12:18] Technocrat-Amit, glad you are enjoying it [12:18] Technocrat-Amit, anything i can help you with? [12:18] :( [12:18] Guest58599: you can download the kernel from kernel.org and then do make menuconfig and you get a menu in which you can search for those kinds of devices. [12:19] Guest58599: you can also search the internet for someone who had the same question and then verify his claims. [12:19] fak if u can use ubuntu u shouldnt be behind a linux distro [12:19] b3rz3rk3r: however I am now looking to actually control this thing, you know getting more geeky :) ! like windows why administrator/root account is disabled ?

[12:20] lol [12:20] Technocrat-Amit, its a safety thing, you only use a root privs when changing settings to prevent bad things happening ;) [12:20] asshole === asdasd is now known as Palestine [12:20] tavi_ it's possible that you may not always be able to change the font [12:20] chiellll [12:20] ok [12:20] hybriidd: please watch your language and be respectful of others in the channel [12:20] on some site sworks [12:20] tavi_ on some sites [12:20] ehh [12:21] on some don't [12:21] b3rz3rk3r: how can I enable root account ?

[12:21] i do [12:21] Technocrat-Amit, loggin in as normal user and upgrading privs when prompted is much safer [12:22] pozic: ok, tks a lot for support [12:22] to configure iptables and install dbms software like oracle student express version [12:22] ok so no wusb54gc ver 3 users? [12:22] wireless dongle [12:22] !sudo > b3rz3rk3r [12:22] b3rz3rk3r, please see my private message [12:22] pozic: i'll try to buy another device [12:22] Guest58599: all the results I see on Google about that device are complaining. [12:22] use sudo instead of loggin in as root [12:22] b3rz3rk3r: to configure iptables and install dbms software like oracle student express version [12:22] sudo fakabitch [12:22] Technocrat-Amit, if somthing needs root it will ask for your password [12:22] Guest58599: if you want to be even more sure of a good device, make sure OpenBSD supports it. [12:23] Technocrat-Amit, if a cmd isnt working, you can preempt it with "sudo" to gain root [12:23] Guest58599: those guys are anal about hardware documentation. With hardware documentation a lot of people can write drivers. [12:23] b3rz3rk3r: yeah , everytime I install a package from repo , it asks for sudo password, but it gets annoying if you are doing R&D [12:23] ecolitan: ? [12:24] Hi, I have a question [12:24] its very important [12:24] shoot! [12:24] tavi_ no idea, may not always be possible [12:24] b3rz3rk3r: is there a way honestly to use root account in ubuntu ?

[12:25] Technocrat-Amit: the link ubottu gives you tells you how [12:25] and i wanna have windows and ubuntu on my hard drive [12:25] b3rz3rk3r: Oh I HATE vista , that distro is one of the worst products of MS after windowsME [12:25] ew lol partitioning with linix noway!!!!

[12:26] and then i quit cuz i wasnt sure [12:26] b3rz3rk3r: moreover Vista is the reason why I have said GOODBYE to Mycrowshaft OSes [12:26] Technocrat-Amit usually alt+ [12:26] and now my windows has 60 gb [12:26] :O [12:26] lsmod it [12:27] Technocrat-Amit: dont be a hater :p [12:27] what is the equivalent for copy/b *.wmv.* file.wmv ?? [12:27] anyone know how to set group id permissions for routing ? [12:27] Guest58599: mythtv has an OpenBSD developer. That suggests there is atleast one working device. [12:27] and Win7 is really nice btw (ot) [12:27] -.- [12:27] ewww grose win7?? [12:27] pukes [12:27] nobody wants to help me?

Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [12:28] jiohdi: use cat? [12:28] Show me benchmarks of Win7 vs Ubuntu, but don't tell me it is nice. Also, get me 20000 easy to install software packages. Then we talk :) [12:28] jrib, noob here, please explain in stupid [12:28] I am looking to delete a known_hosts file entry, but it's a bit hard to find with the new format of that file. Is there some tool I'm supposed to use? [12:29] kapipi: ssh-keygen -R hostname [12:29] ahh, great thanks [12:29] ALL : How do I see private messages from other users ? I am not getting anything [12:29] double clicking to launch an app is hard for you pozic? [12:29] ecolitan: ? [12:29] kapipi: The hostnames are hashed (privacy reasons), but you can disable that in your ~/.ssh/config. [12:29] will it be a pop up or special blinking message ? [12:29] Technocrat-Amit: what IRC client? [12:29] jrib is a cat a command line or a program/ [12:29] grawity: no thats fine with me, just hard to identify which key to remove when ssh gives the fingerprint [12:30] jiohdi, cat file1.avi file2.avi file3.avi >newfile.avi [12:30] kapipi: And that's why I suggested disabling it [12:30] jiohdi: try « cat file1 file2 ». That will output file1 and then file2 to the terminaal. Then you can redirect output to another file like: cat file1 file2 > output [12:30] gartral: you mean program I am using for this chat [12:30] hi! I'm interested in learning about the hardware details of my laptop, I'm running Xubuntu, but with Gnome and KDE destkops installed, what command can I use? [12:30] Technocrat-Amit: yea, its called a client, i use Irssi [12:30] afd__, sudo lshw [12:30] gartral: its Xchat gnome irc chat [12:30] jrib, can you use it like file.* > output? [12:31] grawity: yeah that's another way of doing it, but ssh-keygen seems to be good too [12:31] jiohdi, I just told you [12:31] Technocrat-Amit: i believe ctrl-tab [12:31] bazhang... I am asking if you can use * like you can in dos [12:31] !ati > me [12:31] legend2440, please see my private message [12:31] jiohdi: sure if you have cat in there. Note you may want to check the order [12:31] hi guys... looking for a hand with getting my nivida drivers activated... any time i am trying to start X with a nvidia driver it just says to me display unavailabe, i have uninstalled drivers, reinstalled drivers tried older drivers, tried removeing all the drivers then installing them while GDM was not running, I have tried driver sets 96, 173 and 180 [12:31] grawity: ofc it would be nice if ssh did mention ssh-keygen as the tool to use [12:32] has anyone heard of a problem like this before? [12:32] grawity: but thats for another channel :-D [12:32] b3rz3rk3r & gartral : nothing is happening [12:33] Technocrat-Amit: in left panel it says Ubuntu Server #ubuntu? is there on that says ubottu? [12:34] one* [12:34] legend2440: yeah I got that [12:34] hello [12:34] kapipi: ssh-keygen works but ssh also reports the line number which should make it pretty easy [12:34] i have a problem about the update [12:34] who can help me? [12:35] Technocrat-Amit: click on ubottu and read the message [12:35] please private [12:35] legend2440: actually it was in collapsed state when I expanded it messages were visible :( === rodrigo is now known as Frezeeer [12:35] imre: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) [12:35] ok [12:35] foreal [12:35] :) [12:36] i try to update butr there is written on note like that cdrom://Ubuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ - Release i386 (20090420.1)/dists/jaunty/restricted/binary-i386/Packages Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by [12:36] ALL : anyone knows how to logon on to different irc chat server [12:36] bahh' [12:36] thank you jrib and bazhang, that did the trick [12:36] imre: can you pastebin the command you ran and the full output?

One disk is complete encrypted with truecrypt. Not as a container but as a partition. Is it possible to make an exact image of the partition to the other disk. Both disks are same type, same model, same size.

[12:40] ecolitan: ok, it's aleady setgid [12:41] jrib: How do get in to irc://irc.thinkdigit.com [12:41] jrib yeah i know, but route throws an error [12:41] ecolitan: what version of ubuntu is this? [12:41] jrib 2.6.28-14-generic [12:41] after upgrading to 9.04 sound stopped working and i simply cant get it working again... tried to read some guides i found on google but no progress so far... anyone got any pointers as to where to start? [12:41] !version | ecolitan [12:41] ecolitan: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [12:41] 9.04 [12:41] What is the name of the standard that is used to connect digital cameras to TVs? [12:42] pozic: S-Video ? Or just TV_Out [12:42] Not sure though [12:42] should mod_rewrite have some configuration file for apache2 ? [12:42] ecolitan: why aren't you just using sudo? [12:42] ecolitan: instead of changing the default route permissions [12:43] furythor: I would try #apache [12:43] hi folks, I am logged in as root and trying to run a script to backup and I get a -bash: -/db Permission denied ? [12:43] mizipzor: I would open F2 gstreamer-properties and play around in the Audio section. Then you can see, if Ubuntu recognized your card. [12:43] I can run the same script from the command line.. but apperantly not as a script [12:43] JenniferB3: Can you pastebin more details? [12:43] Does anyone have exp with Nvidia installation issues? [12:43] jrib i usually use sudo, but I'm trying to write a script to automatically setup the routing for my vpn [12:44] jrib and want it to run as my user [12:44] Technocrat-Amit: clicking on the link works for me > irc://irc.thinkdigit.com [12:44] ecolitan: I don't think setgid is the solution here. The users group probably doesn't have the necessary permissions [12:44] jrib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/243748/ [12:44] minimec: even though it worked in the last version of ubuntu? ... in the device section i have "default" and "unknown" [12:45] mizipzor: sitch to ALSA once and try that 'unknown' device. === Mike is now known as Guest73445 [12:45] What are the sys requirements for Gnome? [12:45] Carsten you mean graphics card ? [12:45] jrib i chowned the /sbin/route file to have the group users, and i'm in the users group in /etc/group [12:45] I do. [12:46] Guest73445: depends, minimal or recommended? [12:46] what generation and what ubuntu version ? [12:46] minimec: switching to ALSA, i got four items in the device section, "default" and three with the same name "CA0106" [12:46] ecolitan: right, but why would the users group have permissions to change whatever it is that the route command changes [12:46] jrib i've used setgid before but it's just giving this wierd thing with route [12:46] gartral, minimal [12:46] gartral, minimal for older machines [12:46] ecolitan: do you understand my last comment? [12:46] minimec: none of them produces any sound when testing though [12:46] jrib i think i do now [12:46] mizipzor: Check these device and use the 'test button' YOu should get a 'beep' sound... [12:46] Nvidia 7300LE and Ubuntu 9.04 [12:47] Guest73445: give me a moment, please [12:47] those drivers are never fully suppoterd [12:47] hi. when updating the package manager a lot of the time in ubuntu 9.04, i find that either loading packages is very slow or won't load at all. Having said that it will sometimes load packages lighting fast (as was normal in Ubuntu 8). My internet works fine and i've tried different servers but it seems it's very hit and miss loading packages. [12:47] hmm, then you need to consult nvidia graphics card driver manual to see if it supported or not [12:47] jrib ok, i get it [12:47] jrib my bad [12:47] hybriidd, which ones [12:47] I have and it is. [12:47] that series of nvidia :( [12:48] JenniferB3: how are you running it? [12:48] how can I install krecord on ubuntu? [12:48] me? [12:48] ./db [12:48] hybriidd, did you have a support question? please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic [12:48] JenniferB3: as what user? [12:48] lawl [12:48] hello, how can I install the new 2.6.30-4 Linux kernel for Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty? [12:48] opps [12:48] no need [12:48] why? [12:48] how to change screen resoltion , when quit on a game? [12:48] is there a ppa for it? [12:48] mizipzor: So you don't get any sound using that 'test button' but ubuntu sees a 'Ca0106'? [12:49] I installed Fedora on a different hard drive to see if it was an issue with my hardware... It works fine on Fedora with the same driver version so have a hard time trying to work out why X will not use it with ubuntu [12:49] Carsten_ Well, what kind of issues you are having then ? [12:49] xrand -s 0? [12:49] DesertPanther: you cant... either wait for Karmic or switch distros [12:49] xrandr -s 0? [12:49] How can I check the hard disk health status of an internal disk? [12:49] minimec: actually it sees three of them... but no, no sound [12:49] What CD/DVD catalog software is there for Ubuntu?? [12:49] i wouldnt switch distros [12:49] :/ [12:50] I am very worried that my internal 500GB disk is giving up on me. [12:50] !!! [12:50] diddy: SMART Tools [12:50] Guest73445: looks too be 400 mhz p2 PCU and 128 mb Ram [12:50] worldomination, how do I get those? [12:50] gartral, On my own machines I may install Gnome as well,kde 4,, is a little fat :) [12:50] How can i view sdf extention files in ubuntu 8.10? [12:50] I get error, Fatal server error: no screens found [12:50] install gsmartctl [12:50] Guest73445: CPU* [12:50] What CD/DVD catalog software is there for Ubuntu?? [12:50] I meant gsmartcontrol [12:50] gartral, cheers for the info,, :) [12:51] and smartools [12:51] gartral, d/load in progress ;) [12:51] minimec: i have both alsa, oss, esd and pulseaudio installed... could there be any conflicts there? [12:51] diddy: gsmartcontrol look it up in synaptic have fun [12:51] Carsten that seems to be because your screen is not recognized for reason or another [12:51] DesertPanther: well you could always compile it yourself, but why do you want it? [12:51] Guest73445: whats your specs? you may be beter off with e17 [12:51] whew! busy tonight [12:52] mizipzor: ok. Let's go a step further. 1. Set 'Output'Audio to 'automatic' again in gstreamer-properties; 2. Open a terminal and do sudo apt-get install pavucontrol; *. F2 pavucontrol look the 'outpu devices' section. [12:52] any idea how i can start multiple instance of wget in terminal? [12:52] mizipzor: i see ESD and Pulse in the same list, thats a no-no, also, alsa and oss needs aoss to coexist without dying [12:52] well come back to why did it work fine in previous versions of ubuntu but not this one. as i said it also works fine on fedora [12:52] jrib, I heard that it works faster than 2.6.28 [12:52] 'wget link & wget link2' doesnt work [12:52] gartral, i have plenty :) It is for friends with older xp,,machines [12:52] I don't compile it myself [12:52] mizipzor: Ubuntu sees some audio devices. Let's chek if pulseaudio sees them too ;) [12:52] Guest73445: whats the specs???? [12:52] I compile it === arthurL_ is now known as arthurL [12:53] does anyone know of a programme that can warn of low disk space. Just had loads of problems cos i had no idea [12:53] gartral: should i then, instead, start by removing as much as possible? everything related to sound but alsa and pulseaudio? [12:53] anyone else have any ideas? [12:53] Watch Your Diskspace Like A Vulture [12:53] sorry i cant think of anything [12:53] Carsten I had some issues on 8.10 my self too, so I was forced to move back to 8.04 and my hardware upgrade seems inevitable if I want to keep using latest LTS version ... [12:53] DesertPanther: that's not really a great reason. The kernel team's ppa has them though if you want to try them [12:53] minimec: the default output plugin or the default output device? [12:53] mizipzor: i would remove ESD via terminal with sudo aptitude purge esd [12:53] gartral, 2 gig ram ,,and clocked at 3.0-3.6 ghz depending on my mood ;) [12:53] jrib, sure, where can I find that PPA? [12:53] gartral: im on it [12:54] mizipzor: If you set the Plugin, the device will be 'greyed out' [12:54] Guest73445: that should run gnome ANDE compiz just fine, as long as you have a semi decent gfx card [12:54] Carsten_, how did you stop gdm when you installed those drivers? [12:55] gartral, 256,,Nvidia [12:55] minimec: ok, thats done, installing pavucontrol [12:55] DesertPanther: kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline -- remember this isn't supported and is meant for testing, your machine may spontaneously combust, etc. [12:55] jrib, how can I add this PPA to my source.list? === Vincent is now known as Guest10294 [12:55] i was using /etc/init.d/gdm stop [12:56] worldomination, I installed those smart tools but they are nowhere to be found under system -> administration. ??? [12:56] DesertPanther: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [12:56] Carsten_, and then installing from the tty? [12:56] minimec: yup, this application was discussed in one of the guides... rhythmbox is playing and is listed under playback [12:56] yes [12:56] gartral, I have kde4,,,on one partition and it is a little slow compared with 3,,,, [12:56] > hi. when updating the package manager a lot of the time in ubuntu 9.04, i find that either loading packages is very slow or won't load at all. Having said that it will sometimes load packages lighting fast (as was normal in Ubuntu 8). My internet works fine and i've tried different servers but it seems it's very hit and miss loading packages. [12:56] minimec: i got one entry in output devices, "ca0106-ca0106" [12:56] Carsten_, sorry I forgot, did you also install nvidia-settings [12:56] via apt-get [12:57] mizipzor: But still no sound? [12:57] minimec: correct [12:57] Guest73445: KDE4 is a little slow on my i7 920 workstation with 12 gigs ram... its just slow code [12:57] hi, what is ubuntu MID edition? [12:57] i did... and when I used nvidia-settings it tells me the driver isnt active etc, and to run nvidia-xconfig when I do that I still get the same problem [12:57] dremits; http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-select-fastest-mirror-in-ubuntu.html [12:58] legend2440, okay got it, but I want to add it in my Software Sources [12:58] incorrect: for "Micro Internet Devices" [12:58] gartral, Hell one powerhouse ,,does it dim the lights ;) [12:58] gnubie i have tried [12:58] but to no avail [12:58] Carsten_, everything crashing? what resolution are you trying to set btw [12:58] what CD/DVD catalogging software can I use ? [12:58] gardar, probably not a smart idea for a desktop, [12:58] DesertPanther: not sure if you can as it doesn't have a repository structure. You can just use the deb files if you want. [12:58] whoa [12:58] mizipzor: TRy to check if you got more than just one sound interface. A USB webcam for example, or an onboard sound card in combination with a pci soundcard. You should be able to send the stream to the device you want. [12:58] is there anyone here from the united kingdom? [12:58] must admit netbook remix seems like a smart idea for a desktop [12:58] jrib, alright thank you :) [12:58] !uk > dremits [12:58] dremits, please see my private message [12:58] Guest73445: no.. but it acts as a great space heater! [12:59] I would consider giving netbook remix on a desktop to my dear old mum [12:59] I get error, Fatal server error: no screens found im using res 1440x900 [12:59] incorrect: as your name states.. your incorrect.. ubuntu MID edition will run on the Atom based systems fine [12:59] Carsten_, try selecting a lesser resolution [12:59] tried... same issue. [12:59] minimec: the onboard soundcard is faulty and has been disabled via the bios to prevent exactly such issues... no webcams or any external hardware is plugged in except for mouse and keyboard [13:00] gartral, Could do with that over here in NZ [13:00] minimec: unplugging the speakers and plugging them in again switches the output device in pulesaudio volume control to a "Null Output" [13:00] gardar, are you saying MID is a good idea for a desktop? [13:00] mizipzor: Just because you talked about some 'unknown' devices in gstreamer-properties... [13:00] I'm trying to set up a KVM vm. I also want to use the new 0.8 virt-manager, but only the 0.61 is available in the repositories. I downloaded 0.8, configure, make, make install, & it's in Applications, Other, but doesn't work. Running virt-manager in a terminal gives "File "/usr/local/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py", line 26, in import libvirt" What do I do now? libvirt-bin is installed. [13:01] Carsten_, I am at a loss; having nearly the same card working fine [13:01] minimec: i have no idea what the unknown is... but as i said, i have probably way to much sound software installed [13:01] minimec: ill try removing oss as well [13:01] im at a total loss as well... it works fine for me with another distro [13:02] mizipzor: You don't have to. I have a default installation, and that works. [13:02] I have Hardy but I want a newer kernel. In fact, I would like the Jaunty kernel. Trying to do this with the preferences file. Can one use syntax like this: [13:02] Package: linux-image* [13:02] in the preferences file? [13:02] Guest73445: may i pm you? [13:02] the login sound plays although i have disabled it via system > preferences > sounds. is there a file which i can edit to stop that?? [13:02] minimec: but neither do i need them, right? maybe removing them might remove some of the variables here... making it easier... and they can always be installed again [13:02] mizipzor: open a terminal and do lspi | grep audio [13:03] minimec: http://pastebin.org/5927 [13:03] as far as ican tell i havn't broken any6 rules [13:03] jcmarini: hmm? [13:04] hmm indeed [13:04] minimec: i assumed you meant lspci, i dont have lspi... if it wasnt a typo [13:04] Doesn't seem like manual is explicit like this. [13:04] Rather it does stipulate [13:04] Package: * [13:05] just had an idea... [13:05] gartral, sure [13:05] whats the command to clear the synaptic/apt downloaded package cache? [13:05] the login sound plays although i have disabled it via system > preferences > sounds. is there a file which i can edit to stop that? or is this a known issue? [13:05] Carsten_: « man apt-get » read about the two options with "clean" in them [13:06] mizipzor: ;) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=963027 Your baby is maybe needing some tweaks. I guess this post is for hardy, but I would search the net for 'yourhardware' in combination with 'ubuntu' or 'jaunty' [13:06] Carsten_, apt-get clean [13:07] morris1: which one? The one played when you have actually logged in or the one played by the login screen when it asks you for your username? [13:07] carsten, $ sudo rm -f /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb [13:07] mizipzor: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7677411 [13:07] mzz: when i've actually logged in. the first one i don't even know how to disable... but i would if i could [13:07] minimec: ok... should i try to tweak the sample rate? or should i remove as much software as i can first? [13:07] mizipzor: You don't have to remove software. [13:08] minimec: yea, ok [13:08] Also, I want to ensure that only the kernel comes from Jaunty....everything else should remain in the Hardy release. [13:08] bye [13:08] morris1: that one's probably under system -> administration -> login window -> accessibility [13:08] annasseh, welcome back [13:08] morris1: I don't know why the other setting isn't working for you [13:09] minimec: but since unplugging and plugging in the speakers again... the output device is now only "null output"... maybe i should reboot before going any further... if there isnt any software trick for rechecking the card [13:09] behappy, thanks [13:09] mzz: yeah... just thought there exists a config where i can look for the setting... [13:09] annasseh, np ^^ [13:09] hello everyone [13:10] morris1: yep, but that'd be the one you said you just changed [13:10] my bother scanner still willnot work withou sudo prin\veledge ... wots the script to make it local user again [13:10] mizipzor: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils should do. [13:10] mizipzor: 'sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart' [13:11] mzz: :( [13:11] Hello! [13:11] what is the name for the mit-scheme package? [13:11] minimec: hm... no effect, still null... but ive set the sample rate as described in that post, ill try a reboot, brb [13:11] I am using 9.04,it's a great system. [13:12] mizipzor: You could also do a 'dmesg' in a terminal and check for suspicious messages ... [13:12] mzz: additionally, in the sound preferences window, when i set a custom sound like cards shuffle.mp3, and i clikc on the play button on the right, the original login sound is played [13:12] that must be a bug somehow [13:13] hey... in ubuntu, does ipod work as external drive without any downloads of apple crap or anyother crap? [13:13] But I met a problem,that is I see "shutting down bluetooth ..." when I shut up my machine,but I have no bluetooth device. [13:13] morris1: I only replied because I thought you might have changed the wrong pref. I really don't know why the pref you found isn't working (it is the right pref, it worked here) [13:13] How can I remove this message? [13:13] mzz: okay, thanks anyway [13:13] clem6: does the message really bother you that much? [13:13] Quick question: what would cause an upgrade to be "held back?" [13:14] clem6: it's probably "bluetooth device management" in system -> administration -> services, but I haven't noticed it having any serious detrimental effects [13:14] what is a simple ftp program for linux with gui support? [13:15] JenniferB3: filezilla [13:15] minimec: back, and the output device is back to normal [13:15] gftp [13:15] JenniferB3: I've used gftp in the past with good luck [13:15] ftp client [13:15] Yes,it is not effect my using,but remove it is better,I think. ;) [13:16] mizipzor: open a terminal and do dmesg and check for suspicious messages in combination with your audio device and driver. [13:16] *cough* [13:16] mt [13:16] is it gftp-common that I should select? [13:16] Maybe it can make the shutting operation more quick. [13:16] hi all [13:16] got it, thanks :) === introuble is now known as SERE [13:17] I have a quick quiestion: It is possible to get to work Enemy territory on Ubuntu x64? [13:18] JenniferB3: Are you using GNOME? It supports ftp:// addresses itself. [13:18] minimec: cant see anything weird [13:18] I have canceled the bluetooth service in system -> administration -> services,but nothing changed. [13:18] ok, so I have a XP computer without a wireless network adapter built in, but with an usb adapter instead. If I switch my computer to ubuntu, can I somehow use the adapter (it comes with a windows only installation CD) to access my wireless netowrk? [13:19] * Ose is lousy with everythign hardware-related [13:19] which 802.11n wifi card should i buy that works out-of-the-box on ubuntu ? [13:19] Ose: just try [13:19] minimec: hmm... this http://pastebin.org/5928 isnt really the same as this: http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-ca0106 [13:19] minimec: or am i missunderstanding something now? [13:19] mizipzor: Well I guess I cannot help you further... I would continue playing around in the pavucontrol settings, as you card is recognized by the system...

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 [14:49] hmw: type "sudo ufw status" just to make sure it's not blocking.

I started with 8.10, and it worked fine. When I updated I can not use the new Kernals. I have 2.6.28-14, 28-13, and 27-14 all installed, but can only boot with 27-14. Any Ideas? [14:51] hmw: If no machine can connect i assume it is only listening on localhost [14:51] is openbox desktop is easy to use ? [14:51] zer0x: thats what this strange remote desktop keeps telling me. why?? i want to make it correct. how? [14:51] how can I reinstall gnome? [14:52] hi :) [14:52] zero0x terminal ifconfig ? [14:52] darklingduck: what errors? or weird behavior you get with the new kernels ? [14:52] its been over a month with this problem and i will have to reinstall ubuntu unless someone can solve this probelm http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7720632#post7720632 [14:52] hmw: you would have to make it listen on your main interface, or use an ssh tunnel to forward the connection [14:52] Spykemcc: Seems so, check out crunchbang, a ubuntu derivative which uses it. [14:52] sudo aptitude install gnome-desktop [14:52] Neutron_: try DSL or puppy Linux [14:52] koln, i cant reach terminal [14:52] zer0x: not really, the other ubuntu pc lets me in with the same standard setup. I must have done something very bad. [14:53] erUSUL: When the LILO tries to boot it locks up. [14:53] arand I don't want another bloated ubuntu clone ... I wanna build my minimal install [14:53] Evet: not even in rescue mode? [14:53] zer0x: is there a howto? a config file in /etc? something, where I can configure this thing? [14:53] sure, I will give it a try [14:53] hi, i'm new to linux. I installed Ubuntu 9.04 on friday on a different HDD XP. I'm a little konfused because the Bootloader offers me two different Kernel versions. Is that normal or did i do something wrong? [14:53] darklingduck: blinking leds ? any error msg ? [14:53] arand, i cant reach internet in rescue mode [14:53] darklingduck: btw why do you use lilo ? [14:54] is there a filetype which opens with terminal? [14:54] hmw: not sure, I never use remote desktop, only ssh :/ [14:54] zer0x: darn, me too... i need my thunderbird [14:54] xyz [14:54] hi there, any idea what's the difference between /lib/libc.so and /lib/tls/cmov/libc.so ? [14:54] erUSUL: No error message, just sits there. I let it sit fo 15 minutes and nothing. Actually I think it is Grub, LILO was just the first name that jumped into my head. [14:54] hmw: can you use X forwarding with ssh? xD [14:54] Evet, not unless you associated it with a filetype [14:54] Spykemcc: crunchbang is normally far less bloated than ubuntu, but you could always check it out just to evaluate openbox, and then go ahead with the minimal+openbox if it suits you... [14:54] hi all [14:55] Abd4llA i think for libraries [14:55] durt, its a good idea [14:55] zer0x: no, i need to connect from windows [14:55] Evet, no it's not [14:55] darklingduck: even if you boot removing the splash an quiet boot options you do not get anything ? [14:55] helper: what do u mean? [14:56] are there any other viable wireless network managers apart from WICD and NM? [14:56] what do they use as remote desktop server? is it vnc? i try to find the config files, since the UI settings dialog doesnt let me set anything except "yes, i want it to be active" [14:56] erUSUL: You lost me there. Fairly new to Linux. Still learning. [14:56] helper: I know they're libs, I build my app and it gets linked against the tls/i686/cmov libc, dunno why ? [14:56] hmw: ahh :/ [14:56] hi crunchbang666 ! [14:56] mdg: hey [14:56] Evet: can you get net with a livecd? in that case you might be able to chroot into the current install and fix, I think at least... [14:57] hmw: It's vino (vnc) [14:57] hi bu! [14:57] darklingduck: sorry; when you are in the grub menu. hit the letter "e" you then will be able to edit the kernel line. remove the words splash and quiet from that line... then hit "b" and it will boot the edited entry [14:57] helllo mdg [14:57] got your wireless working? [14:57] no [14:57] darklingduck: that will make the boot more vervose and hopefully the error should be visible [14:57] no wireless for me either [14:57] this new eee pc keyboard is driving me mad! [14:58] its disabled for some reason and i duno how to get it online again [14:58] arand, thanks, its a good idea too. but i dont have a cd-rom, or usb stick [14:58] geirha: do you think, reinstalling vino might repair it? [14:58] crunchbang666: still no wireless? [14:58] hmw: You'll find the configuration in gconf-editor, /desktop/gnome/remote_access [14:58] is there a room for development ? [14:58] erUSUL: I can try that, though I am on my laptop now. When I get the error I will come back with it. Thanks for the help. [14:58] hmw: I doubt a reinstall would fix anything [14:58] mdg: from the live cd it picks up the wireless networks no problem, from install it doesnt ?

Don't think it's a defect ;P [15:11] mdg, u know how do i get my wireless card activated again? [15:11] now its dead [15:11] styol1: try "lsmod" and see what modules it lists [15:11] uuv: the new one appearing whn you plug the thing is probably the one ;) yes /dev/sdg1 is possible [15:12] mdg im also getting hugos@hugos:~$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found. [15:12] Thank you all, i fixed it [15:12] hi :) i just installed ubuntu 9.04 jaunty jackalope for the first time. i had the same box running 8.04 TLS for the past year or so. what package(s) should i install to be able to use Flash driven sites, ie: youtube, facebook, myspace, jango, etc. ?? is it just Gnash and swfdec as described on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#Free%20Software%20alternatives%20to%20Adobe%27s%20Flash%20Player ?? thanks! :) [15:12] erUSUL: Yea, i get that it's the new one ;) but i wasn't sure what adresses are possible [15:12] bu and crunchbang666: In a terminal type "ifconfig" no quotes and see if you have a wlan0 come up [15:12] how do I filter the msg "XXX has joined/left"? [15:12] no wlan0 instaead pan0 [15:12] laughzilla: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras [15:12] and iwconfig gets no wilress extension [15:12] hi, how can I change the clock ? I want to set it one hour back [15:13] styol1: looks like ndiswrapper is not installed - by chance are you on a PowerPC? [15:13] astrid: depends on the client you are using [15:13] forward I mean :O [15:13] mdg: i did that last night and got pan0 also....right now that wont work because im on the live cd and it is finding the card and networks [15:13] mdg dell mini 9 netbook [15:13] crbchbang probably has wlan0 as his wirelss card is detected [15:13] thx erusul [15:13] oh! [15:13] JenniferB3: system>administration> [15:13] JenniferB3: Right click the clock at the upper left [15:13] erUSUL: using xchat, like 5 years ago. There might be a better client on MacOSX though... [15:14] erUSUL: I am not using gnome [15:14] astrid: right click on the channel tab/button [15:14] just the termnal (server edition) [15:14] JenniferB3: kde should have similar facilities [15:14] laugh, besides restricted extras, you must install flashplugin-nonfree [15:14] crunchbang666: from the live cd - go into wireless network setup (Administartion > Wireless) and see if you can see anything [15:14] http://www.gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=109192&file1=109192-1.jpg&file2=&file3=&name=Leopard+OS [15:14] JenniferB3: ok then « man date » [15:14] I have to take a little break - back in a few...

[15:16] please* [15:16] brb my install has finished [15:16] GArReT`: it maybe needs the -dev packages of tcl [15:16] erUSUL: yeah. Thanks a lot, it is more readable now :) [15:16] astrid: no problem [15:16] I'm trying to get my ipod nano 16gb to work with banshee, and i've been following this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=5a8ac35128e1ccf981ae9fc0ae0e355a&t=875705&page=2 , but i don't know how i should type in the code. Can someone tell me, i [15:16] i'm a newbie [15:17] uuv: open up a terminal (Applications->accessories) === tt is now known as Guest81300 [15:17] Yes, i got that far [15:17] and i know the device path but i don't know how to mount it [15:18] uuv: look like terminal commands [15:18] !cli | uuv [15:18] uuv: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [15:18] Ye, i know the terminal, but the part is what i don't get. Where and how should i mount it [15:19] bu: until mdg get back his seat, let yourself stick with me. :) have you try ndiswrapper? [15:19] uuv: normally you first have to create the "mount point" e.g "sudo mkdir /media/mountpoint" [15:19] uuv: Using the 'mount' command, on whatever path you want. [15:20] man mount [15:20] uuv: «mount » is the directory you want the ipod to appear in your fs. /media/ipod for example [15:20] djisamsoe: i tried ndiswrapper, jaunty, intel website, and none worked for me :( [15:20] uuv: and then just sudo ipod-read-sysinfo-extended /dev/sdd1 /media/mountpoint (as an example) [15:21] Can i use /home [15:21] bu: how about the one from the source? [15:21] uuv: no; /home/someemptyfolder [15:21] uuv: You need to use an empty directory. Usually one is created in /media -- /media/ipod, for example. [15:21] djisamsoe: i made it worse that now my wirless is not detected at all 1stly it was workin but cant connect to any network secured or not [15:22] Well, i made one in /home, /home/ipod, but when i try to insert the command it just says couldn't resolve Device directory path on uuv/uuVaio. [15:22] hello? [15:22] hello [15:23] !hi [15:23] bu: can you manage to revert back every command until the original state? what have you done so far? [15:23] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [15:24] i couldnt, i installed backports i think that wat caused it to not funcion and when i removed it it still [15:24] uuv: are you sure the device is the correct one then? "sudo fdisk -l" should give you the /dev/sd** which is your ipod [15:24] bu: linux-backports-modules-jaunty ? remove the package then... and reboot [15:25] erUSUL: already did [15:25] and still [15:25] and yea its the jaunty [15:25] rski, hi how ur doing? im making coffee [15:26] erusul or anyone else with 9.04 experience ... should i also install Gnash and swfdec after i install the 'restricted directories' material? :) [15:26] Hi all, anybody using detached rtorrent automatically ?? need help with screen and getting the thing to run automatically on start-up [15:26] saw this but it's unclear: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-589554.html [15:26] bu: hmm... that's tough... ok, i know this will be a lame thing to suggest:try to reboot first? [15:26] so how do i get backport modules for jaunty? [15:26] im now running from install not live cd and no network card is found [15:27] laughzilla: no; gnash and swfdec ar not mature enough afaik... th adobe version whith its bugs and all works better imho [15:27] arand: I think so, it gives me a 16gb device with the path /dev/sdg , i think that's my ipod [15:27] crbchbag , type >> sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-jaunty [15:27] erusul u mean i should grab that package from adobe labs, the beta version? ok, i will try that. thx again. :) [15:28] uuv: and you've been using sdg1 for these commands? [15:28] i'm on a 4-bit, dual core intel 1.6 ghx box. [15:28] laughzilla: no; the restricted package already installs the adobe version [15:28] i mean 64-bit [15:28] Well, i tried with sdg1 and sdg [15:28] djisamsoe: consider me already rebooted [15:28] neither of them worked [15:28] laughzilla: yes the 64 bit version [15:28] erusul - ok cool thx. i was about to google all its contents but i'm still waiting for it to finish installing. :) [15:29] bu: E: couldn't find package linux-backports-modules-jaunty [15:29] uuv: well /dev/sdg1 should be the relevant partition...

[15:30] does ubuntu have /etc/rc.d ?? all I see in my system is a bunch of rcx.d (where x goes from 0 to 6) [15:30] yes [15:30] does this make sense to anybody? ndiswrapper is saying that bcmwl5.inf is already installed, i list installed ones and it says invalid, so i try to remove it and its not there.. http://pastie.org/568631 [15:30] try runlevel [15:30] djisamsoe: it says nuthin is used by the system [15:31] Hey [15:31] I am getting an error message during boot...boot clean failure cleaning /tmp [15:31] uuv: sure, but I'm not sure what more to do on your issue though...

[15:57] Dawgzilla: Antialiased fonts? In emacs? [15:58] crunchbang666: after it updates, go to settings in the menu bar and choose repositories [15:58] Isn't that a terminal app... [15:58] Deko - it is just the cpu and mainboard that will change..? [15:58] crunchbang666: I like the themepack that shares your name [15:58] can you guys help me out a little? [15:58] mdg: after typing linux-backports-modules-jaunty into the search, it appears i have every single package already installed on my system, they're all marked. [15:58] http://87.252.67.25/ Does this work? [15:58] i found this synaptic thing :D [15:59] And does http://87.252.67.1 work? [15:59] bruenig: i'll check it out :) [15:59] crunchbang666: we have to enable the repository [15:59] paschu: Good, did you enable the 'universe' repository in Software Properties? [15:59] mdg: ok, do you have the name? i've enabled reps in synaptic before [15:59] Dekko: you still here?? [15:59] hc: The first address works, the second one - no. [15:59] not yet [16:00] crunchbang666: you need to add or fine linux-backports-modules-jaunty [16:00] fine/find [16:00] hc: The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. [16:00] crunchbang666: let me know when you have added that line or found it [16:00] morning [16:00] I installed kubunto on my laptop this am [16:01] its loading [16:01] sziasztok [16:01] frybye: yes I am here [16:01] grawity: Okay, thanks! What about http://87.252.67.35/ then? [16:01] now there is a issue of what the tool in kde is for installing pkgs [16:01] Ose: cheers! [16:01] The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 6B15AB91951DC1E2 [16:01] the frontend for apt-get [16:01] any idia [16:01] idea [16:01] hc: Nope. [16:02] crunchbang666: if you don't see it in the list, click new and type it in [16:02] VoipJunky, kpackagekit if you are on 9.04 [16:02] mdg: i was looking already, i googled "add linux-backports-modules-jaunty" but nothin commin up [16:02] Dekko: so what abt my ? - is it just the cpu + m-board that will be different?? [16:02] but how to get it to list all avaible pkgs [16:02] frybye: Yes just the CPU & Motherboard... [16:02] crunchbang666: let me find a screenshot of where you should be.... [16:03] frybye: I guess my question is - will Ubuntu require full reinstall on new hardware or are all the hardware drivers etc IN the kernel - as opposed to how Windows is..... [16:03] hi, I want to synchronize tomboy notes with webdav, so I get an account but I can't use it because I can't install fuse and wdfs. How can I do that? [16:03] crunchbang666: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu - just a little way down the screen [16:03] its not displaying avaibles pkgs when I select all-package [16:03] grawity: Okay, thanks for your help. Then what about http://87.252.67.12 ? This is the last one! [16:03] crunchbang666: look for "Ubuntu Software Tab" [16:03] grawity: i need help :D [16:04] paschu: ? [16:04] VoipJunky, load the second one in the menu, then go back to all [16:04] Dekko... my tip - am no ubuntu expert though - is try it and if dosent work = new install.. save your home dir and export the snaptic list 2 an ext. drive first.. [16:04] mdg: im there [16:04] ok [16:04] omfg O.o i dont know what to do [16:04] hc: Doesn't work. "Timeout" [16:04] frybye: Okay thanks ... [16:04] paschu, please watch the language [16:04] paschu: What are you trying to do? [16:04] paschu: control the language, please, we know what "omfg" means and don't need to see it [16:04] grawity: Oh, ok. Thanks! [16:05] yea yea >_> [16:05] crunchbang666: we are trying to add the software sources for linux-backports-modules-jaunty [16:05] crunchbang666: maybe it would be faster from command line [16:05] ok im trying to download xmoto and gparted [16:05] ikonia: do you know what makes md devices automatically appear in /proc/mdstat? i just rebooted and md_d2 shows up automatically with just device /dev/sde1. i stopped md_d2 before reboot. [16:05] and i cant find it in synaptic [16:05] if u are doing it today.. report back how it went!! ,09 [16:05] * Dekko also wonders if there is a newer version of the Elemental theme out?? The current one reports a bug in terminal on launch........ [16:05] paschu: Did you enable the 'universe' repository like I asked you to? [16:05] mdg: im not competent with linux commands but if you tell me what to do i'll do it. [16:05] zroysch: that's read normally from the boot script which reads /etc/mdadm.conf or /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf [16:05] no i didnt [16:05] paschu: Then do. [16:06] cuz i cant find it [16:06] crunchbang666: I'lll give it a shot... [16:06] ikonia: I only have a listing for md0 and md1 in mdadm.conf [16:06] paschu: System -> Administration -> Software Properties. [16:06] what was the oldfront end ? [16:06] zroysch: then it must be reading the data from the private rejoin [16:06] i have the netbook remix [16:06] here is no 'administration' [16:06] Dekko: save your sources list for a poss. new install also.. [16:06] gslaptget [16:06] I think [16:06] crunchbang666: can you open a terminal and type: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list (it will ask you for your password) [16:07] paschu: Ah. Try software-properties-gtk [16:07] frybye: I will thanks. [16:07] ikonia: im not sure what that means. do you know how i can delete /dev/md_d2 and make it go away forever? [16:07] BTW how do I do that? [16:07] VoipJunky, adept? [16:07] how can I install fuse to ubuntu? (to install wdfs) or which package? [16:07] VoipJunky, you can still install if you wish [16:07] maybe "aptitude search fuse" can help. [16:07] its enabled [16:07] dhalsimm: I think Ubuntu already comes with FUSE support. [16:08] paschu: 'universe' is enabled? [16:08] yea [16:08] erUSUL: Thanks for the backport/ppa info. I think I still have a problem. I want to use virt-manager 0.8.0 instead of 0.6.x, but it's not in the backport repositories (came out a few days ago) & I don't see how uploading the new virt-manager source to a ppa will help the new virt-manager & virt-install play nice with the rest of the system. Any other way? [16:08] grawity: sudo modprobe fuse -> module fuse not found [16:09] mdg: sorry had to answer the door... i did what you said, it worked [16:09] ok [16:09] VoipJunky, you got it? [16:09] dhalsimm: Because it's probably already integrated and everything. [16:09] crunchbang666: are you looking at the app nano with /etc/apt/source.file open in it? [16:09] but i cant find xmoto and/or gparted [16:10] yes [16:10] paschu: Try the "Reload" button in synaptic [16:10] paschu, update your packages list [16:10] k [16:10] mdg: it brought up all the info in the terminal... it lists the current repositories i have enabled [16:10] kpackegekit is just weird being I have never seen it [16:10] lol [16:10] someone can help me ? I want an easy way to make an ubuntu minimal install with only one command line for hardy ... [16:10] VoipJunky, there is also a #kubuntu channel for help [16:10] crunchbang666: yes, move to the bottom of the list because we have to type one in [16:11] mdg: is there a command to open up this list in GUI ? [16:11] ok [16:11] Spykemcc, the 9mb iso installer? [16:11] yes [16:11] sooo [16:11] Spykemcc: What do you mean? You want to make a minimal install? Like an installer disk? What do you mean "only one command line" ? [16:11] mdg: in text editor etc [16:11] crunchbang666: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/source.list (type from command line) [16:11] Spykemcc, there is no one line to do that [16:11] only 47 packages? O.o [16:11] but I want to make a GUI on top of it, the fast and easy way ... [16:12] Spykemcc, then dl the iso first [16:12] got it ... [16:12] mdg: the text editor has opened the file source.list but there is no content [16:12] crunchbang666: Then you made a typo ;) [16:12] crunchbang666: close it - I think you made a typo [16:12] is the alternate cd better ? [16:13] baii! [16:13] crunchbang666: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list [16:13] Spykemcc, please clarify. you have it on cd (burned iso to cd) on usb stick, or what [16:13] mdg: i will copy and paste the command you type. [16:13] got the iso on my disk drive but I'm now trying to do my setup script [16:14] mdg: i did make an error i typed source instead of sources ... ok so i have it open :) [16:14] crunchbang666: cool. Now go down the file - you may see a backports section already [16:14] crunchbang666: if you don't see it, we will make it [16:15] at least, be ready to install and know my way out enough to install the gui and internet, to get helped if I need after it ... [16:15] I'm trying to compile wdfs but I'm having this if I run the configure script. http://dhalsim.pastebin.com/m5071e93, what should I do? [16:15] anybody familliar with 'ndiswrapper'? [16:15] Spykemcc: If you have an ubuntu iso and you're trying to install it on your system you don't need to write any scripts. Just boot the live CD and use the installer that's on there. [16:16] Ose: I've used it ;) [16:16] mdg: main restricted, then universe, then multi universe and then jaunty backports main restricted ...2 lines [16:16] edbian it don't have a GUI ... [16:16] hmm [16:16] crunchbang666: we will add this to the backports section [16:16] Spykemcc: I'm confused about what you're tying to do. :( [16:17] dhalsimm: Usually, for developing and compiling software, you need the -dev packages -- I guess it's libfuse-dev [16:17] mdg: ok ? [16:17] edbian, he wants to use the minimal iso without burning to disk or usb [16:17] crunchbang666: find the section of the file that showed "backports" [16:17] 有没有来自中国的？ [16:17] mdg: im there [16:17] Spykemcc: unetbootin === system is now known as Guest20277 [16:17] system in #ubuntu-cn [16:17] crunchbang666: the line should start with ####Backports#### [16:17] Is anyone come from china? [16:18] Guest20277, /join #ubuntu-cn [16:18] hi [16:18] edbian I'm trying to install a minimalist and user-friendly ubuntu that will just need the minimal cd and an installation script that can be customized as needed ... [16:18] unetbootin wow you're noob or what ? I don't need a live usb ... [16:18] Spykemcc, user friendly? you may wish to try the alternate then [16:19] mdg: http://pastebin.com/m13b8385e [16:19] bazhang the minimal will do ... [16:19] Spykemcc, dont use noob here [16:19] can someone tell me if he can check source code repo like the others (universe, multiverse ...). I can just like that http://imagebin.ca/view/Aw9RZwLp.html [16:19] crunchbang666: you in GB?

[16:21] crunchbang666: go ahead and do them both. [16:21] mdg ok [16:21] sudo modprobe ndiswrapper is telling me FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found. and ndiswrapper is definitely installed... anyone have any ideas? [16:22] crunchbang666: once you have closed out, we need to go to the command line and use modeprobe [16:22] mdg: im there [16:22] one thing has said to install ndisgtk but im not able to [16:22] crunchbang666: sudo modprobe iwl3945 [16:23] mdg: nothing happened it just took me to the next command line.

Unfortunately, Shockwave is the dealbreaker for this install. It's the only thing which doesn't work, and has to work. [17:01] no [17:01] does ubuntu automatically make a swap partition when it uses entire disk ? [17:01] styol1: did you unplug ethernet? [17:01] there is no shockwave for linux [17:02] hehe [17:02] brb [17:02] lucky, i got it working under wine though [17:02] Hey fellas [17:02] with Ubuntu server installed, what else do I need to do reverse ssh? [17:02] does ubuntu automatically make a swap partition when it uses entire disk ? [17:02] QGB: yes [17:02] lucky, but i only tried it on isketch.com :-) [17:02] dare: it keeps crashing under wine. [17:02] cool [17:02] QGB: I believe so. you can check with free [17:02] .net* [17:02] BlasenMich: is ssh installed? [17:02] lucky, does isketch.net work btw? [17:02] recently i have compiled a linux kernel to be used for ubuntu. every thing is running fine except the LCD. lines are visible when the screen is refreshing. [17:02] DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO INSTALL FLASH .ANY ONE WHO LIVE IN THE USA THAT CAN HELP ME OUT [17:02] dare: usually a lot of "internal" services - but maybe its no problem at the moment - just to make sure for the future [17:02] dare: don't know. [17:02] I haven't set up the server yet [17:02] richardcavell: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh status [17:02] BlasenMich: that was for you [17:02] BlasenMich: type that in [17:02] thx [17:03] toni_: please do not shout [17:03] maybe it's a problem with the wine version, i tried it on an older version, ~1.0 i think [17:03] THEN HELP ME OUT [17:03] so wht should i do to reduce this effect? [17:03] lol it's too bad [17:03] toni_: you are still shouting [17:03] dthacker: why doesn't ubuntu make more seperate partitions than just swap ? [17:03] back to pirated windows then :( [17:03] toni_: you need to say for what program you want it (if not firefox) [17:03] I heard that just have two is insecure [17:03] QGB: no need to [17:03] dare: try lsof -li to see [17:03] but it is unsecure I have heard [17:04] Just got AFP compiled on Ubuntu - couldn't be happier with the results. [17:04] QGB: I don't know about that [17:04] oh wow, a lot :-) [17:04] RC - I've been told I have to have something called "squid" [17:04] like people can log flood you if you don't have /var on its own partition [17:04] after i reconfigure xorg i get a message that SMBus base address not initialized...upgrade bios or use force_addr=0xaddr [17:04] how do I change the timezone on Ubuntu? [17:04] richardcavell: how do i use iptables? [17:04] i need flash in ubuntu linux 9.04 dont need it to be install for fire fox [17:04] QGB: Ubuntu knows you need a root, a boot, and a swap and makes those. More complex partioning is left for you do decide [17:04] dare: :-) [17:04] toni_, are you running 64-bit? [17:04] rincon: for one thing you can get GUIs for iptables like UFS and Firestarter [17:04] i also install flash but it is not working [17:04] i dontknow [17:04] QGB: I suspect because it would be hard to make those decisions. I suspect you don't have to worry about logs unless you are running services [17:04] QGB: I suppose that's true [17:05] rincon: try guarddog [17:05] JenniferB3: System > Administration > Time and Date [17:05] toni_, type uname -a in terminal [17:05] rincon: Actually firestarter is simples. [17:05] toni_, is it i686 or x86_64? [17:05] simpler* [17:05] geekhut: I like Firestarter and I use it. I haven't seen anything that does the same job better. [17:06] richardcavell: firestarter is on repos ? [17:06] styol1: how did it go? [17:06] rincon: yep [17:06] Looks like it is reader error protection coursing the problem. [17:06] well what I mean is that if they log flood you and var is not on its own partition it will take the whole system down to but it its own its own partition that will not happen [17:06] when i check for new updates i get an error that it "could not download all repository indexes", any idea how to fix this? [17:06] my monitor won't allow me to change the resolution what command corrects this? [17:06] QGB: what happens if it tries to append to a log and the partition is full? [17:07] Cheeseguy: try updating in a shell [17:07] it won't work [17:07] see what the error is [17:07] because space is full [17:07] geekhut: how [17:07] sudo apt-get update === root is now known as Guest8820 [17:07] QGB: that would be an argument for you doing a customized layout. Or setting your syslogd configuration to avoid that problem. [17:07] but I have heard that will not take down the system if var is on its own partition and someone log floods you [17:07] hmm\ [17:08] can i load ubuntu on a AMD1600 2gb DDR1 400mhz 80GB sata, 4 NTFS partitions, with no freedisk space.. [17:08] from an old slackware security tuneup guide [17:08] can the ubuntu desktop cd be loaded [17:08] can it be used to remove windows >? [17:08] anonmatir: well you'll need some disk space for it?

[17:10] richardcavell: i ran it as root.... [17:10] now lets see if this install will load up [17:10] anonmatir: try using another live cd?

[17:19] whenever i use halt it actually powers down, on openbsd i have to halt -p to actually power off also [17:19] blackgecko: you can still upgrade that way, just remove it after you update [17:19] i just want to run the battery down safely [17:19] designer of belkin products should die [17:19] styol2: ohh - its bc43-fwcutter not b43 [17:19] in /var/log/messages: Aug 2 03:56:39 tuxbook -- MARK -- [17:19] ah [17:19] any idea what that means?

[17:33] i'm trying to install the java environment and it's taking too long to install [17:33] Hey guys, Im having a big security issue with ubuntu 9.04. Up until very recently if user A mounted a hdd and user A was still logged on, but you switched user to user B, user B couldnt acces that hdd that user A mounted. Now, user B can access that hdd. However the biggest security concern is that now if user A mounts a truecrypt partition (which requires root), user B can access said partition (user B is a limited user with no root access). Any ideas on wha [17:33] t could be causing this and how to fix it ? thanks [17:33] it failed me three times now [17:33] mdg it couldnt complete because there was HD space left [17:33] its like a 4 gig hard drive [17:33] is there anybody who assist me to solve my ns2 installation problem [17:33] ????????

[17:39] yes can you follow my lead I could help you to install it ... [17:39] would be great spykemcc!

[18:42] geekhut, http://pastebin.com/m1a57a065 [18:42] Heather: it assumes yes to any question, so if apt figures out that installing it will cause problems, and asks if you want to continue, it'll assume yes.

I can't download faster than 25K/sec with the update manager... so it takes HOURS and HOURS to get updates... Torrents download fine, downloads from the webbrowser download fine... I've tried "selecting the best server" that doesn't help -- any suggestions? [19:19] Raspberry: probably your update server overloaded [19:20] i get 4kb/s on my ubuntu server :P [19:20] ikonia: I've tried over 12 update servers [19:20] so i don't bother with updates [19:20] Raspberry: maybe also qos on your network ? [19:20] Raspberry: change to a local mirror. [19:20] Wireless or network card? [19:20] Mohero: is it realistic to expect him to download a 60GB mirror to his local machine for a local mirror [19:20] lord i'm an idiot...and I can't find exactly how to go in and install them now [19:20] it's not QoS ... I have no QoS [19:20] ikonia: no [19:21] ikonia: I didn't mean that, I meant use a mirror that is closer to him.. [19:21] How do I reset the X Server? [19:21] I have an internal mirror as I have +25 machines, which makes sense [19:21] sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart ? [19:21] can anybody suggest a mirror server that is working fine? [19:21] m0r0n: you need to do it from TTY1 (CTRL+ALT+F1) - "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" [19:21] Raspberry: have you tried a totally random mirror on in a differnet continent [19:21] anyone use Rhytmbox in Ubuntu 9.04 ?...1) where can i find Themes & updates for it & does it have Equalizer by default ? - it didnt in 8.10 [19:21] I've got 40mb Fiber here :) So this 6+hrs to download 350mb is annoying. [19:22] Hello everyone. I have a package dependancy issue I cannot seem to resolve. [19:22] Raspberry: what mirror are you using now? [19:22] Chaostos: check the rhythembox website for themes [19:22] Raspberry: and, where are you [19:22] I keep getting the following: The following packages have unmet dependencies: [19:22] libio-pty-perl: Depends: perlapi-5.8.8 [19:22] E: Broken packages [19:22] ikonia: yeah -- I have been jumping around to different mirrors over the last 18hrs [19:22] Mohero: I'm in Minneapolis MN [19:22] I assume you have the proper drivers [19:22] Raspberry: ok, that sounds unusual then [19:22] ikonia: got link ?... I tryed google but it showed something Uber-strange [19:22] Running 8.10.

[19:23] this [19:23] http://projects.gnome.org/rhythmbox/ [19:23] Chaostos: yes, that's the website [19:23] ahh lol , thanks [19:23] yes, please suggest an update server that is working properly [19:24] and I will work from there and see if I can find the problem on my end... [19:24] to many varibles at this point. [19:24] Raspberry: try a random one, hit it via apt, then hit the same package with your http browser see how they behave different [19:24] sorry for stupid questions. It will be my 3Rd try to get from XP to Ubuntu - just love how it feals & looks.... downloading 9.04 now [19:24] Raspberry: it's clear it's not a "bad" server as you've tried 12 [19:24] cya around & thank you all [19:24] Raspberry: so suggesting good servers doesn't seem a way forward [19:24] Any help would be greatly appreciated. [19:25] well -- is there a way to "reinstall" the update manager [19:25] and potentially clear out something that was hanging it up? [19:25] Raspberry: why do you want to do that? [19:25] Raspberry: why do you keep suggesting random things with no basis, try the debugging I've just suggeested [19:25] Does anyone know how to fix the system sound conflict between the login window sounds and the ones you can set for everything else? [19:25] what's the debugging that you suggested? Download a package via the browser and the update manager at the same time? [19:25] Raspberry: not at the same time [19:26] I just selected python 2.6 and it seemed to install everything but the binary????? http://ldlework.pastebin.com/m6853eab8 [19:26] I've downloaded packages via the web -- they're fine.

I just would have expected it to be fixed by now if it affected a lot of people -- so I don't think that's my problem anymore ;) [19:40] Raspberry: I'm not aware of that problem, and that is also backed up by the fact my machines downloads quick [19:40] Hi I have a Dell Inspiron Mini 10, and my wireless Internet is very slow.

[19:41] ikonia: I agree with that -- but I also think it was a problem that they fixed quickly and that people who didn't update during the brief period it occurred weren't affected at all [19:41] ldlework_: ahh but you've had any [19:41] yes I did [19:41] how do i find out my gateway if im using DHCP/ [19:41] hello! i would like the behavior of my window panel in GNOME to change from [minimize, restore] to [bring to front, minimize, restore], any idea how to change this?

Is there any way to power on your computer over internet? [19:43] ikonia, so I should just install python 2.6 manually then? [19:43] Raspberry: are you running any services, like tor on your machine ? [19:43] no, definitely not [19:44] ikonia: no tor or privoxy [19:44] ldlework_: just thinking it through now, as I wouldn't advise building something as core python on your machine [19:44] ikonia, you're amazing [19:44] What is the default port of DCC in xchat?

[20:01] ldlework_: no, it will get upgraded too - hang on [20:01] which upgrade had broke Xorg? [20:01] ldlework_: python will be upgraded to 2.6 - however there is a 2.5 package in Jaunty so you can put 2.5 on too [20:02] ldlework_: that seems like a reasonable solution [20:02] ikonia, and I run xmonad as my window manager, I suspect that will be gone as well? [20:02] ikonia, I agree [20:02] I suspect it will be like a fresh install with my home folder being retained [20:02] ldlework_: best summary yet [20:03] ikonia, you've been a pleasure. You should charge for your time ;) [20:03] ldlework_: anything 8.10 specific that's not in 9.04 will remain unless you tell it to clean up post install [20:03] ldlework_: not at all, happy to help, glad we understand it now [20:03] ikonia can you check > http://paste.ubuntu.com/244400/ [20:03] hi, if Google's Chrome browser is free code, why isn't it in Ubuntu repositories?

[20:36] ok, thanks [20:37] josht: very often you work with a remote machine (via ssh) so you will need things that work on the CLI [20:37] hey... i just tried to give my dad some tech support on getting dvd's to work "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" on ubuntu 8.10. the command downloaded all the files and segfaulted before anything got done. are there any reasons why? will it be fixed later? can i just install libdvdcss2 (in 8.10)? [20:37] any alternatives to QCad for 2d architectue house design ? [20:37] jophish, ah, i think there are problems with sli, but i cant remember. check phoronix.com [20:37] thanks tesseracter [20:38] ohh so if you go in using like an android phone?? or a ds running linux? [20:38] dassouki: made a research and QCad is the best. need something more try AutoCAD on wine [20:39] im getting this while installing a software [20:39] http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/dfa831b7 [20:39] josht: for those too - but please take those questions to #ubuntu-offtopic as they are not "support questions" really [20:39] has anyone had any luck getting fallout 3 working in linux?

[20:41] when I execute "sudo", I have a delay of about 10 seconds... how can I correct it? === Olof2 is now known as Vanion [20:41] Cige: use sudo [20:41] I can't get my monitors to display correct resolution in ubuntu(9.04). I'm using a T60p laptop(1400x1050) in a mini-dock connected to a HP display(1980x1200). [20:41] Cige: you'll need sudo/gksudo [20:41] !sudo | Cige [20:41] Cige: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [20:41] !gksudo | Cige [20:41] Cige: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [20:41] keero, sudo executes another command as root. you can try "sudo -k" then "sudo whoami" [20:42] dassouki: arcicad (many cad) see thouse link http://linuxopen.ru/2008/06/23/cad-sapr-dlja-linux.html [20:42] im getting this after sudp apt-get upgrade [20:42] http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m11909d96 [20:42] ubottu: thanks!

But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [20:42] is there still no easy way for ubuntu to set up xorg.conf if a monitor is not recocnized ???? do people still need to manualy blabla ??? :((( [20:42] I only knew about sudo [20:42] Cige, or even "sudo nano -w /etc/modules" [20:42] ;) [20:42] tener, but I haven't had this delay previously... why does it occur? [20:42] Besogon: thanks :D [20:43] tener, sudo -k has the same delay [20:43] im getting this after sudp apt-get upgrade - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m11909d96 [20:43] Besogon: arccad link doesn't work lol [20:43] ubottu, hi [20:43] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [20:43] drivers for canon pixma MP110 ubuntu 9.04 [20:43] Cige mc is a useful tool for those edits, but that is, apparently, ot [20:43] my favorite command is "sudo !!" - it executes the previous command, with sudo tacked on te the front. [20:43] can you use moc to read the tags instead of a filename? [20:43] so, sudo ! ! [20:43] ? [20:44] "sudo !!" [20:44] sudo !! [20:44] no need for a space Viliny_ [20:44] josht: if you mean 'mc' no...but it will edit configs and scripts, and I think it will display hex, but I haven't done that in years [20:44] ah ok [20:44] there we go, thanks a ton! [20:44] Nobody know how to solve my display issue? [20:44] i can imagine that would be handy [20:45] no i mean for moc the music player [20:45] Viliny_, plus, it saves the complete command in your bash history, not just the sudo !! [20:45] oh nice [20:45] hello [20:45] Having trouble booting my windows installation using grub , gets stuck at "Starting up..." someone know whats wrong? [20:45] josht: I use easytag for that [20:45] what does that do? [20:45] also, I want to run sudo rmmod pcspkr at startup to turn off the system beep, which I find annoying, is there a way to do this [20:46] josht: reads the tags for mp3s etc [20:46] I was wondering if anyone has had a problem where web page layouts are messed up [20:46] Half-Leif, i would go it with an xorf.conf edit, but thats pretty messy. [20:46] Cige yes check on google [20:46] will it do it if i use moc to play my music? [20:46] Cige: you can blacklist a module....google blacklist modules [20:46] hay guys anyone have a good tut for graphic card configuration? [20:46] ok, thanks! [20:46] george2515, which card? [20:47] intel === mac9416 is now known as macBBL [20:47] hold on [20:47] josht: easytag is for reading and editing the mp3 id info...you can still play the music in whatever player you desire [20:47] george2515, there are easy intel driver packages in the ubuntu repos... it shouldnt be too hard. [20:47] i see thanks.. learning alot here [20:47] can anyone help burn a .dmg image in kubuntu?? [20:48] gamepockets, dmg2iso? [20:48] anyone have any ideas as to why some web pages render funny? I have tried both Firefox and Opera, it seems like the css is rendered incorrectly or something [20:48] well its a mac os9 install and i run a ppc g3 [20:48] well ...when i update the system graphics slow down [20:48] Getting stuck at "Starting up..." when i'm tryin to boot my windows installation, someone familiar with that kind of problem? [20:48] josht: most of us do [20:49] when i put fresh install they re fine [20:49] I want Empathy 2.27.5. Are there any repositories that can make this happen? If not, how can I install a -dev package, ignoring all dependencies so i can manually checkinstall later versions of said dependencies? [20:50] Hello , can someone recommend me on good software for edit video movies such in windows systems (windows movie maker or adobe premire) [20:50] anyone have any ideas as to why some web pages render funny? I have tried both Firefox and Opera, it seems like the css is rendered incorrectly or something [20:51] How do I force mount a ntfs partition. It needs to be checked [20:52] hi all [20:52] hi! got some trouble with old kernel packages. dpkg still lists them with "rc" and some still appear in grubs menu.lst [20:52] tesseracter, must be hundreds of people using ubuntu with a external monitor in full-hd [20:52] i guess that's because of fglrx modules. how do i get rid of the packages? [20:53] kasparhauser: the old kernels stay installed until you clean them up [20:53] dosbox what a pain in the rear end to use [20:53] BriGuy_: i uninstalled the packages, but dpkg still lists them as "rc" [20:53] Half-Leif, sure, do you get any signal on your external monitor? [20:54] next time i install [20:54] ubuntu [20:54] ill install freedos [20:54] anyone have any ideas as to why some web pages render funny? I have tried both Firefox and Opera, it seems like the css is rendered incorrectly or something [20:54] then ubuntu [20:54] hi. I've downloaded ubuntu jackalope. I tried installing it, but when i click on Install Ubuntu from the menu, it just comes up with an underscore, and doesn't do anything. ??? [20:54] Half-Leif, System > Display solves most people's issues. [20:54] How do I force mount a ntfs partition. It needs to be checked [20:54] tesseracter, yes I'm using it right now. clone display from my laptop. Just plugged in the cable and it worked [20:55] i think freedos is best for running dos programs [20:55] tesseracter, the display settings don't have 1920x1200 as an option [20:56] Keiffer: the safest way I thought was to just boot windows [20:56] Keiffer, i've never found a way if the ntfs partition was yanked from a windows machine. i put it back in windows, then shutdown the windows system with the partition mounted if ejecting it doesnt work. [20:56] erikk71, most modern videoadapters do not support dos graphics [20:56] I can't boot Windows. Has some missing files [20:56] ok [20:57] doxbos just dont ynderstand it [20:57] hi, a question [20:57] Keiffer: well, it looks like there is a 'force' option in linux, but it looks like it will leave any files that are corrupted corrupt [20:57] Half-Leif, you can either add the line for 1920x1200 to your xorg, or get a more accurate spec for your monitor somewhere. [20:58] i've added the user anywhere to www-data, but i can't still overwrite files in www-data's ftp folder [20:58] this folder has write permission to group [20:58] danbhfive, force has never worked for me... ntfs being pulled out of windows is nasty. [20:58] I'm looking for a typing training tool for my mom [20:58] danbhfive, OK. i'll get into it [20:58] im getting this in upgrading - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m6c398337 [20:58] Ok, it all works. thanks alot [20:59] hi guys [20:59] tesseracter: ok, Ill make sure not to bring that up again : ) thanks [20:59] how do you exit a man page in terminal?

[21:01] Half-Leif, thats the one my dad has...he uses a hp laptop on ubuntu to connect to it. umm... there might be a "force resolution" advanced feature...for him its in the nvidia control panel. [21:01] does anybody know a quick way to set up a trigger for a backup when an external harddrive is connected? [21:01] ??? [21:01] Keiffer: they are live boot cd.

I'm not sure if the jaunty-intel bug is relevant for my computer. How can I find out? [21:08] yesterday i used the command "xset dpms 0 0 120" (and i mention it because i dont remember anything else thats significant) and now, whenever the gnome-screensaver should go online, the screen dims but then comes back to life right away and he 3 minute (my screensaving time) wait restarts. [21:08] is there a way to fix this? [21:08] danbhfive: But the problem is that i don't know wich number my windows patition have , so i don't know what i should write [21:09] n33ds_h3lp: after -e days the system will no longer allow you to log in except to change your password. It forces you to 'renew' your password every -e days [21:09] hi [21:09] th0r: so, will I have to type in my old password in order to change it? [21:09] Olof2: hmm, well, you could run the command blkid. that will tell you about your partition [21:10] Is there a way to get a script to run on startup without having to define all the start/stop/restart nonsense from init.d? [21:10] i don't hear anything on my laptop. in alsamixer, all the bars are high and not muted. any clues? [21:10] n33ds_h3lp: that will be the only thing the old password will be good for [21:11] n33ds_h3lp: I think so. you will login with you old password, and then you will be prompted to change [21:11] n33ds_h3lp: it is meant for a corporate environment where they want all employees to change their password every so many days...usually 30 or 60 [21:11] danbhfive: seems like lays on sda5 , does that mean that I should write (hd0,5)?

[21:41] with ubuntu [21:41] guntbert, yep [21:41] danbhfive: looking. thanks :) [21:42] guntbert, but once i log in, since it does a re-direct, the url will change to the domain name, and the icons disappear. [21:42] could someone help me out with transferring files from jaunty to XP using a CROSSOVER cable? PM ME PLEASE [21:43] moose55, set both ends in the same subnet, ip wise, and use samba [21:43] osiris: you will have to look into the server logs - do you know where to find them? [21:43] guntbert, im sure i can find them with a little poking around [21:43] is it even possible to mount a computer through a USB cable? [21:44] heck, ill use wireshark if i have to, but this is just an afternoon time killer [21:44] osiris: it should be something like /var/log/apache... [21:46] I'm running a program from a startup script in /etc/init.d using 'sudo -u foo' to change the user, but the problem is that I need an environment variable set for user foo. Where should I set this variable? [21:46] osiris: its /var/log/apache2/error.log or access.log [21:46] I just installed a fresh copy of jaunty over my old one but switched to ext4, in my install I told it to use the same partition and now am having grub errors (i said to not install a bootloader). I think the problem may relate to my uuid... but I'm not sure. Any advice? [21:48] I've already gone through a few repair grub howto's with no luck [21:48] where should I report bugs in locale? [21:49] hi!! All [21:49] osiris....does samba work with crossover cable? [21:50] why wouldnt it ? [21:50] Does any one know what's arca beta, a hardware? [21:50] moose55, samba is just a protocol [21:50] or could someone tell me how to view the grub config files from the grub prompt? [21:50] can anyone tel me how to update filezilla thanx [21:51] moose55, if you have ssh on the linux box, you can download winscp, and do it like that [21:51] FTP client style [21:52] yeah but i cant get them to communicate via crossover cable [21:54] Alvinware: I've never heard of it. More importantly. neither apparently has google. Got any context? [21:55] losher, My friend said it was from Japan, and it's a hardware for computer,it hide the owner I.P..

[22:05] I've finally decided to upgrade my 8.04 installation to 8.10, but I'm afraid it didn't seem to work so well... My graphics seem to be rather messed up (keeps complaining about the nVidia kernel not being initialised or something) and the nVidia Restricted drivers app isn't proving very helpful either - even if I select a different driver and try to activate it, all of the listed drivers... [22:05] ...remain inactive on the system... Any ideas? [22:05] moymoy: Any ideas on where to look for the dell version? [22:05] Well.. how would I go about doing that. x_X [22:05] I'm running Ubuntu live atm. [22:06] I want to install.. but I keep getting resize operation failures when I try to resize the windows partition. [22:06] Name141: it's got problems with an ethernet network card?

[22:06] alright, I'll try both [22:07] losher - I guess,,, But wouldn't that break dependencies and all that? I'm not all that technically advanced when it comes to Linux, so I don't want to mess with things that don't need messing with,,, [22:07] hi, how to get the live version bootable on my sd ? [22:07] Oook: are you using gparted to do the resize? What *exactly* happens....? [22:08] Well, I'm using gparted in Ubuntu [22:08] it is not working anymore on 9.04 [22:08] I can't resize the partition [22:08] It just doesn't let me. === GDonato__ is now known as GDonato [22:08] hello!, is there some official ubuntu server usb image? [22:09] Draggin: the graphics card drivers are pretty much standalone. And you can always go back to 8.04. Or get out the wand... [22:09] koudelka_: you could just use unetbootin [22:09] works for server als? [22:09] also? [22:09] losher - Go back to 8.04? How [22:09] koudelka_, usb-creator [22:09] losher: and when I try to resize VIA Ubuntu installer I get a resize operation error [22:09] `-` [22:09] well, i use opensolaris [22:09] koudelka_: i'd say yeah [22:09] Name141: http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_9.04 [22:09] I cant launch the live ubutu 9.04 from my SD [22:09] is it NORMAL ?

Via a backup (you made a backup, right?) or reinstall from scratch from the CD... [22:10] matu: are you selecting it to boot when you're in the bios? [22:11] Pffft... Backups are for wussies :P Nah, I just thought you meant there's some standard built-in way to default back to your previous installatoin [22:11] what can I install a game from a 6gb iso?? I cant mount it or burn it in a normal dvd :/ [22:11] ls [22:11] yes [22:11] it gives me a msg like, ubuntu is unable to launch the linux kernerl... [22:11] but it worked on 8.10! [22:11] you're screwed [22:11] Draggin: one day there will be, but for now, there's only the wussy method... [22:12] losher - Hehe :) Thanks. [22:12] hmm [22:12] This is Ubuntu-support, I know, but I have set up a Samba-share to allow my neighbours access to TV-shows and movies. Problem is, how do I connect to it from Windows? I used Webmin to set it up, with a setting of allowing everybody access, but Windows says it can't find it, or that the user may not have permissions to access it. [22:12] Anyone know how to make http://www.fiero.nl/cgi-bin/main.cgi?chat work under Jaunty? [22:13] moymoy, ? [22:13] losher: any ideas? ._.

[22:14] yes it is not [22:14] it was working fine, and stopped after an update [22:14] Oook: only lousy ones: a) google for known workarounds, or b) use a different partition manager [22:14] i guess the 9.04 is just unable to do it [22:14] I've got a headless ubuntu machine running here. I want to be able to log in using gdm over the network. What should I reference for that? [22:14] ah okay. [22:14] how do i update to the latest version of transmission?

It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead.

[22:18] hey guys; does anyone know how to get wireless adapter drivers working on ubuntu [22:18] hey guys; does anyone know how to get wireless adapter drivers working on ubuntu [22:18] guntbert: I know that, however, Webmin was supported in 8.04, and that is where I use it. And ebox is not working at all. It has too few choices, and its "proprietary" modules makes sure that I can't use the CLI tools to set up services to be run. It's even worse than having to be careful with using Webmin. [22:18] moymoy: I have the openmoko neo freerunner and I'm trying to install an operating system, but I have a unique problem of not being able to mount the micro sd card correctly to my main computer [22:19] nerr: what error do you get when you use the -X option? [22:19] Neutron: i am running cs 1.6 perfectly fine under wine [22:19] could anyone point me to a good grub fix howto? I just installed jaunty on ext4 and didn't install a bootloader (cause I already had one)... now... nothings working... already gone through a couple grub fix howto's already [22:19] ...so I must untar the files locally, and transfer them across usb to my device, which has the mounted micro sd card [22:19] moymoy, yes, do you know how to get the latest repo for transmission 1.73? [22:19] chocotuar: does your openmoko have ssh? [22:19] moymoy: I always get no display specified, even if I export a display as localhost:0 [22:19] moymoy: yes it does [22:19] hi. I've downloaded ubuntu jackalope. I tried installing it, but when i click on Install Ubuntu from the menu, it just comes up with an underscore, and doesn't do anything. ??? [22:20] This is Ubuntu-support, I know, but I have set up a Samba-share to allow my neighbours access to TV-shows and movies. Problem is, how do I connect to it from Windows?

[22:20] nerr: no no nooo!! .. never export a display on your own.. ssh handles it... do you ssh -X blah blah? [22:20] hmm yeah I am trying to load CS, the game loads, but then either freezes or just exits without error. now I know that I can't expect everything to run in wine out of the box, but all games that are clearly listed as "platinum" just don't work for me [22:20] chocotuar: okay.. so you can extract the file locally.. then transfer the whole dir over through scp [22:20] whobody: Could you have a bad burn? Have you tried downloading it and burning it again? [22:20] no grub guru's out there? [22:20] chocotuar: man scp [22:20] moymoy: It doesn't appear to do anything differently than a standard SSH connection would [22:20] OttifantSir, do you use IP adresses to connect? [22:21] i have the tenda twl541p, how can i get it to work on ubuntu, anyone?? [22:21] Neutron_: im not an expert... actually pretty noob but did u install from steam or from ur cd?

Reinstalling pakcages didnt work... [22:21] Lint01: Yes. I use \\192.168.0.120\share [22:21] moymoy: that's where the problem is. see, I'm extracting an operating system so the symbolic links get all messed up after I extract, and scp follows these bad symbolic links [22:21] moymoy: /usr/bin/X11/xauth: error in locking authority file /home/matt/.Xauthority [22:22] nerr: type in like gedit or something into the terminal [22:22] nerr: it should forward the gedit window [22:22] nano ftw ;P [22:22] is the serial driver compiled into the ubuntu kernel?

[22:24] moymoy: ahahaha, okay, I'll do some research then. :) Thanks anyway. [22:24] whobody: One laptop I tried installing it on gave me the same problem. I had to use a Windows 98 boot disk to format the drive before it would let me install any Linux on it. Wierd.

I really don't want to have to go through the entire install again just to fix grub.... :( [22:26] chocotuar: perhaps you can setup an NFS share on your computer and mount it with your phone [22:27] getting help here is like screaming at the top of your lungs and hoping someone hears and answers [22:27] blognewb: yes, that checks for a file in the current directory, you might want something more complex [22:27] chocotuar: and have your phone untar it through the network [22:27] ubuntu network boot to reinstall ubuntu? the network boot would be on an osx computer, any suggestions [22:27] gbear14275: you can install grub again without reinstalling your system [22:27] gbear14275: boot the live system, mount your hd, ...

[22:34] gbear14275: dude, you don't have to [22:34] im a real noob [22:34] gbear14275: use the livecd, and follow some guide on google, there are tons to restore grub [22:34] blognewb: more like dpkg? [22:34] moymoy: i mean in windows you simply right click computer, sleect map network drive then choose letter you want. adress of drive and there you are done [22:34] Cynope: I installed over my last jaunty install in an attempt to get a clean slate. Because I already had a bootloader i told it not to install another one... now I keep falling to a prompt when I try to boot [22:35] blognewb: if you are a noob, then why would you need such a thing? [22:35] r00t|vaio: i don't know what that is sorry [22:35] r00t|vaio: for my vps [22:35] gbear14275: startx [22:35] im just reading up on reference [22:35] cattellar: i think he meant re-installing just lilo [22:35] im a linux noob [22:35] cattellar: thats what I'm doing... following one of the grub reinstalls... not one of the system ones [22:35] mralexandro, did you read what I said?

[22:35] ahhh ok [22:35] gbear14275: type it [22:35] startx is a magical conjure [22:35] mrwes: i am sorry i saw it now, thansk man [22:35] blognewb: use find|grep [22:35] :) [22:36] mrwes: i am not used to irssi:) [22:36] gbear14275, paste the output of "cat /boot/grub/menu.lst" in a pastebin [22:36] bendt: thank you i'll try! [22:36] mralexandro: if you use Nautilus, you can select a network share, and it'll "mount" itself as a drive.. but it won't survive a reboot and you'll have to do it again when you restart... but you can also (if you don't mind editting text files) automount it through fstab [22:36] startx not found [22:36] blognewb: what was the file again [22:36] Cynope: will do [22:36] mralexandro, if you feel more comfortable with a GUI IRC client, try xchat [22:36] find|grep imagick.so ? [22:36] bendt: find|grep imagick.so ? [22:36] bendt: WHAT? ... that's silly... and... find -name ... if anything [22:36] bendt, I am trying to send the first file through file transfer here [22:37] actually nautilus dosent exactly 'mount' the share in the same way that the mount command does. it sort of 'browses' the shares. [22:37] Dr_Willis, and you point doc? [22:37] blognewb: what are you trying to do? find out if imagemagic is installed? [22:37] your* :) [22:37] blognewb, mlocate imagick.so [22:37] mrwes: i know, but i like not feeling comfortable, i have no idea why, but i like the simplisity of irssi so much i wanna learn it [22:37] *magick [22:37] binarymutant: says mlocate command not found [22:37] never figured how find -name works [22:37] i need some expert help for ubuntu 9.04 PM ME! [22:37] bendt: OUCH [22:37] mrwes: done expect non-gnome apps or the terminal stuff to find things on that share. [22:37] mrwes: how do i scroll up ? [22:37] mrwes: err. 'dont' :) [22:38] blognewb, I thought it was installed by default, try slocate imageick.so [22:38] Cynope: i'm at an initramfs prompt... no /boot anywhere :-/ [22:38] Dr_Willis, he can add it as a bookmark and it'll always be there when he needs it [22:38] bendt: it takes globs... the only caveat is to quote them... find / -name "*.txt" [22:38] er.. [22:38] binarymutant: not foud either :( is this because im using 9.04? [22:38] Dr_Willis: shares "mounted" by Nautilus are mounted in the folder ~/.gvfs [22:38] root|vaio - ok thanks [22:38] gbear14275: it's easy to fix, can you go to grub console? [22:38] mrwes: for gnome apps.. yes. some times.. and ive had some apps not like that sort of arangement. but ive also had issues lately with auto-mounting samba shares via fstab. it can make the system take a long time to shutdown.. [22:38] i already did a build-essentials yesterday [22:38] Dr_Willis, BTW -- how the hell are ya? [22:38] Dr_Willis: so terminal and apps can access the shares [22:38] Cynope: yeah lemme restart [22:38] moymoy: they dont show up in the mount command that ive ever seen... and ive looked [22:38] blognewb, sudo apt-get install mlocate [22:38] gbear14275: several people said you should attempt recovery from a live CD [22:39] let me try my question again: how can i prevent the ubuntu installer/live system from loading some driver (because it crashes the system)? [22:39] DJNomad - I am using weechat for the 2nd time ever. I have no idea how to transfer files usingt irc? [22:39] * Dr_Willis can look again.. [22:39] Dr_Willis, yah I here ya on the samba/cifs shares -- you need to add an umount in the postsession and that should fix0r it up [22:39] Dr_Willis: if you ls the ~/.gvfs directory.. and you can even cd into the shares [22:39] bendt: right-click a nick, select "send file" ... [22:39] mrwes: yea - not sure why thats now an issue when its not been in the past. [22:39] guntbert: its on my list... Cynope is asking me to try a few things first so I don't mind seeing if he might be able to help [22:39] Later everyone! [22:39] root|vaio: im on a console right now... [22:40] bendt: /dcc send [22:40] binarymutant: says -> mlocate: can not open `/var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db': No such file or directory [22:40] Dr_Willis, something to do with the network connection being killed before the share is umounted [22:40] gbear14275: ok, sorry to interrupt - listen to Cynope please :-) [22:40] :O [22:40] does anyone know how to transfer files from ubuntu to XP using a CROSSOVER CABLE.....PLEASE PM ME TO HELP ME [22:40] alright... I'm at my grub loader [22:40] root|vaio: how to recieve? [22:40] mrwes: hopefully fixed in the next release [22:40] Cynope: sorry... to you [22:40] bendt, I thought freenode blocked dcc xfers [22:40] Dr_Willis, you running Karmic in a VB yet? [22:40] blognewb, :) sudo updatedb and then locate it, then you can find anything with mlocate and/or slocate [22:40] blognewb: considered...: dpkg -l | grep libmagick ? [22:40] gbear14275, its ok :P, ok, type 'root ("TABTAB"' [22:41] bendt: you should see some activities in your other buffers.. scroll to that one [22:41] moose55: give both machines a static ip. and they will be networked. Then you use the normal tools. Or install a dhcp server on one. [22:41] mrwes: nope. not yet. been trying other disrtos lately [22:41] mrwes: why would freenode "block" dcc? they only are not a network for dcc bots serving warez... [22:41] hello [22:41] anyone know how to turn off SLI and get multiple monitors on multiple cards to work with the nvidia drivers on 9.04 ? [22:41] mrwes: how do i select network drive under the options of connect to server, i only see ftp and windows share [22:41] gbear14275, in order to continue --> T = TAB [22:41] Cynope: alright... I've got the root (hd0, [22:42] some expert here that can spare some time 2 help me with ubuntu 9.04??? [22:42] gbear14275, can you remember which partition did you install your linux? [22:42] bendt: receive? you mean accept the transfer? depends on the client... [22:42] binarymutant: thank you thank you for bearing with me it worked! [22:42] DJNomad - switching to X on another machine - just a second [22:42] cynope... this sounds like a root (hd0,4) then setup (hd0) fix? [22:42] gbear14275, i mean your root. [22:42] root|vaio: weechat [22:42] cynope [22:42] mralexandro, is it another ubuntu machine or a windows machine? [22:42] bendt: i've never even heard that name before [22:42] Okay my script has one advantage over pastebinit, in pastebinit, you've to specify the format explicitly by -f while in PyPaste, all you need to do is to specify the file, it finds the syntax highlight for you on its own :) [22:42] binarymutant: do i always have to updatedb every install? [22:42] yes, the fresh install is on partition 1, the /boot is on partition 4 [22:42] r00t|vaio, it was my understanding freenode blocked dcc xfers -- shrug... [22:42] bendt: in BitchX it's /dcc aceept iirc [22:43] hello [22:43] mrwes: rest assured that i use it regularly, on freenode too [22:43] gbear14275, Umm, Well, I didn't understand what you mean by "sounds like that", What I'm trying to do is to boot your linux first. [22:43] hello iam new her [22:43] how this work [22:43] gbear14275, after that all you need to do is to type the same line in your menu.lst file [22:43] and i get ignor i see -_- [22:43] r00t|vaio, fuqin aye -- you made your gawd damn point a-hole [22:43] blognewb, well it was default for me, but to update all the files that it can store yes [22:43] i have 4 virtual desktops with compiz, how can i have 4 different wallpapers? I only see the same one for each of them [22:44] it is a iphone, but not the entire one, it is a "office" program that has its own "server" to upload download .xls and doc files etc. it has description for how to mount this "drive" in vista and osx, i hoped it could be done in ubuntu as well [22:44] mrwes: lol [22:44] I manually mounted a smb share with my Thunderbird profile, but Ubuntu Thunderbird keeps telling me, there would be another instance running. This is most likely due to some problem, that it cant write access the mounted dir... can someone help me? [22:44] r00t|vaio, I wasn't reading from the freakin' bible :) [22:44] hello [22:44] hello [22:44] freemen: welcome; ask any questions on ubuntu you have and see if anyone answerd [22:44] Cynope: I'm sorry... shouldn't have tried to jump ahead. so that must be the step I'm missing [22:45] mrwes: an irc network _could_ try to prevent usage of dcc by filtering the messages clients use to negotiate it... but i haven't heard of any network doing such a thing [22:45] HALLO may some expert help me with a problem on 9.04 ver?? [22:45] -_- [22:45] ciao [22:45] !ask | maxie [22:45] maxie: 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. :-) [22:45] gbear14275, That's ok, I still don't know if you tried that or not, anyway if you have installed linux... fixing grub isn't a problem [22:45] maxie: might help if you mention what the problem is [22:45] Ive followed this first case here: http://www.sorgonet.com/linux/grubrestore/ [22:45] mrwes: it is a iphone, but not the entire one, it is a "office" program that has its own "server" to upload download .xls and doc files etc. it has description for how to mount this "drive" in vista and osx, i hoped it could be done in ubuntu as well [22:45] gbear14275, which partition did you install your linux on? [22:45] gbear14275 I mean your root directory [22:46] partition 1 [22:46] my / is on partition 1 [22:46] mrwes: now exaplain to me how nautilus mounts samba shares to .gvfs with out them showing up in the mount command output. :P [22:46] ubottu i take contact with u on pm ok [22:46] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [22:46] mralexandro, I don't own an iphone, nor do I have any experience 'mounting' one [22:46] gbear14275, ok so it should be "root (hd0,0)" [22:46] then press enter [22:46] -_- [22:46] i hate maesseneger bots [22:46] xD [22:46] Dr_Willis, gawd is involved of course :P [22:46] now type kernel /boot/vm[TAB-TAB] to see a list of available kernels [22:47] mrwes: what are the osx instructions?

(I mounted the share to the dir, where profiles.ini looks for the profile. It works if it is a dir, but nothing mounted over it) [22:48] er.. then ---> root(hd0,4) [22:48] moymoy, why?

[23:02] blognewb: oh.. not knowing how to exit man [23:02] Cynope: one sec I'll list in pastebin [23:02] losher : not familiar with growisofs [23:03] mralexandro: what kind of share is it? a windows share? just click on networking, and you can see the icon right there [23:03] losher: is it command line ? [23:03] Is there a way to make my own multi-iso LiveDVD? [23:04] ProfOak: bound to be a way.. ie seen it done.. but it will proberly need some skills and learning === joltzy is now known as mhammer [23:04] can someone confirm my webserver working: http://79.209.59.185:8080 [23:04] ProfOak: Have you started with making your own custom ubuntu CD/DVD? [23:04] saonium1, yeah [23:04] k, thx [23:04] linuxguy2009: No, I guess it's gonna be a long trip [23:04] ProfOak: ive seen many PC magazines have multi-linux disrtos on one included dvd. So i know it can be done. I could do it with Frugal installs of Puppy linux. But it Ubuntu makes it a little harder in ways [23:05] ProfOak: ubuntu customization kit is good for making a custom ubuntu. Ive used it myself. You can make a CD/DVD of ubuntu with whatever apps you want right out of the box. [23:05] sonium1, in future you could try accessing it from a web proxy like hidemyass.com [23:05] JuJuBee: yes, it is cli. there is a man page. Basically, to burn DATA files direct to dvd, you do something like: growisofs -speed=4 -use-the-force-luke=noload -Z /dev/cdrom -dvd-compat -R -J [23:05] Oh My. :) [23:05] ProfOak: search synaptic for "uck" [23:05] can anyone answer a question about '/etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf'? [23:05] dare: hey, nice tip [23:05] Dr_Willis: There's a security multi iso disk floating out there on the internet, and all the distros are out of date [23:05] moymoy: i am not sure what you mean by "click networking" where would i do this. the adress of the "server" would be 192.168.20.1:4242. [23:06] Cynope: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/244773/ [23:06] ProfOak: every time i ever see a magazine with disrtos on disk.. they are out of date. :) [23:06] mralexandro: at the left, there should be "networking" [23:06] linuxguy2009: thanks I'll check that out, and try to make a custom ubuntu. I've been meaning to do that anyways. [23:06] left as in nautilus or in the application i run on the iphone? [23:06] Dr_Willis: This is hosted on a site, and the torrent took forever [23:07] losher what if I already have an iso image of the movie I wish to burn? [23:07] ProfOak: ive only customized puppylinux, slax, tinycore, and tried that new SuseService thing.. not tried ubuntu.. I found the syslinux system in ubuntum and how the live cds were laid out.. a bit confusing [23:08] JuJuBee: with an iso, it's even easier: do growisofs -speed=4 -dvd-compat -Z /dev/cdrom=file.iso [23:08] how can I save a .conf file? it won't let me [23:08] gbear14275: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/244777/ [23:09] !iso [23:09] To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. [23:09] JuJuBee, yah growisofs is the way to go [23:09] ose: you use sudo when you open the editor [23:09] ProfOak: with UCK you select your ubuntu ISO and then you can use a terminal or synaptic to install programs and then it will pack them into your iso and you just burn it to CD or DVD depending on how many apps and the size of the final ISO. Then when you install ubuntu from your new custom CD/DVD all the apps you told uck to install will be there out of the box.Its really nice and easy. [23:09] th0r: how? [23:09] ose: do you have root privileges? [23:09] JuJuBee: once you get successful burns, you can start to up the speed.... [23:09] bye [23:09] ose: which conf file? [23:09] uhm, I installed ubuntu earlier today, I should have all rights [23:09] I'm having a problem with sound. When ever I listen to any music (on any media player) or watch any video (even youtube) the sound starts to skip and jump around. What would cause this, and how could I fix it? [23:10] Cynope: ah ok... is there a way to get back to the grub boot list so I can edit the file? I pushed c for a prompt... but don't know how to go back? should I just reboot? [23:10] '/etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf' [23:10] ose: sudo nano or gksudo gedit in terminal [23:10] linuxguy2009: That's rad, I'm gonna definitely use this for 9.10 since I'm not using ext4. [23:10] ose: sudo nano /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf [23:10] wiat... sorry my bad Cynope [23:10] ose: and do yourself a favour, go to tldp.org and read up on linux basics [23:10] aha [23:10] thanks [23:10] hi i have a mf626 usb modem but i can't configure it, any help please [23:10] gbear14275, You can't edit the file from grub bootloader, you need to edit that file in your linux [23:11] moymoy: left of the nautilus or left of iphone applicaiton? [23:11] just do a "locate menu.lst" [23:11] hi [23:11] Cynope: it is /boot/grub/menu.lst [23:11] ahmos: dialup modem? [23:11] is there anyone who can help me to solve a problem? [23:12] jejedi: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) [23:12] th0r. Yeah I know, but he couldn't find it there :P [23:12] mralexandro: left of nautilus [23:12] mralexandro: any progress [23:12] linuxguy2009 yes [23:12] jejedi: When you come in feel free to just ask the question right when you come in. Ask your question its ok. [23:12] Cynope: well, it isn't going to work anywhere else [23:12] ikonia, hey, when I select the xmonad session type, gnome doesn't start. Any ideas? When I load normal session and start xmonad then kill metacity it works. But if I pick the xmonad session type I'm not sure what needs to be started to get the gnome stuff. [23:12] mralexandro: exactly what type of server are you mounting? [23:13] losher thanks, I will try that [23:13] ldlework: well xmonad wouldn't have anything to do with gnome by default [23:13] moymoy: jrib: i am not sure. but here is the adress to the aplication http://www.quickoffice.com/quickoffice_iphone/ [23:13] th0r, that's might explain why his linux wouldn't boot :-? [23:13] s/that's/that [23:14] ldlework: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Using_xmonad_in_Gnome [23:14] jrib, I know. What do I run to initialize all the gnome stuff? [23:14] Cynope: worth betting on [23:14] ahmos: Well I have heard that most USB ports are all standard interfaces and all work out of the box for the most part, however devices plugged into the USB ports like your modem depend mainly on kernel driver support, and/or a 3rd party driver provided by the manufacturer. [23:14] I've just install ubuntu 9.04 and I have no sound, according to some forums it appears that it can comes from my tactile touchs which don't work, do you know how to solve that? [23:14] Cynope: locate is part of find-utils...not installed by default [23:14] JuJuBee: another cause of mysterious failure is media incompatibility. I have good luck with Verbatim brand blanks... [23:14] ahmos: You will most likely need to find a deb or .run driver file. [23:15] mralexandro: have you tried contacting them directly? [23:15] Cynope: th0r: I have my menu.lst file [23:15] Cynope: th0r its in /grub/menu.lst [23:15] jejedi: is the a "file" in /dev/dsp? [23:15] linuxguy2009: I'm trying to install from the synpatic, and from a deb. It keeps asking me for my kubuntu jaunty disk, but when I put it in, it gets recognized, but doesn't stop giving the error. [23:15] linuxguy2009 thank you alot and i'll continue searching [23:15] gbear14275, it will probably be mounted on /boot when you boot your linux [23:15] ahmos: maybe do a "sudo lshw" and see if the kernel recognizes your modem. [23:15] Cynope: th0r: so I have to boot from a live cd then? [23:15] jrib: no i have not, since i thought they would say like everyone; we just support windows and mac.... [23:16] I a real nubby, i don't undersand... can you explain? sorry... === iosif is now known as anachoret [23:16] there isn't a text editor I can get from the grub prompt [23:16] in the reverse dns, is it advisable to put it www.domain.com or just domain.com? [23:16] gbear14275, you can do that too, I just wanted to make sure that you can actually boot from grub. [23:16] losher I am using Memorex. I had great luck with them until the last 20 or so of a 100 pack. [23:16] jejedi: open a terminal, write ls /dev/dsp [23:16] after just a normal restart my GRUB says "Error 18" :( === nolze is now known as PDI [23:16] Cynope: ah, yeah no success yet, the third line of your pastebin yielded an error [23:17] losher: after I insert a blank DVD-R, do I mount it somehow? or does growisofs take care of that? [23:17] mralexandro: never know until you try :) [23:17] Cynope: something about a direct filename or block file [23:17] benno: ok qnd then? [23:17] jejedi: qnd? [23:17] gbear14275, I forgot / it should be initrd /initrd..... [23:17] JuJuBee: for writing, you just pop in the dvd-r and invoke growisofs... [23:17] and? [23:17] mralexandro: even if you just ask them for more details about how the files are shared, I'm sure they would help you [23:17] losher: ok thanks again [23:18] any clues on how to fix this Error 18 in grub? (dualboot w xp) [23:18] what does ls /dev/dsp tell you - is this file present? [23:18] Where does output from /etc/init.d/ scripts get logged? [23:18] benno: it just print /dev/dsp ... [23:19] bobwhoops: at least some of it is in /var/log/messages [23:19] jrib: thats true, will try to do that [23:19] thanks [23:19] jejedi: try ls -l [23:19] i will do this one in windows for now and research it further:) [23:19] Cynope: ok that worked... but still no boot into linux... "target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init" <-- looks like the error message [23:19] benno:I have a file yes [23:20] gbear14275, that's because your "root" isn't located where you specified [23:20] I'm having a problem with sound. When ever I listen to any music (on any media player) or watch any video (even youtube) the sound starts to skip and jump around. What would cause this, and how could I fix it?

I don't see any of it there [23:20] gbear14275, try to play with root=/dev/sda? to see where you have installed your linux [23:21] alright... i'll try stepping through them Cynope. btw... thank you so much for the help so far... I'm feeling like this is close [23:21] jejedi: ok, then. try "cat /dev/urandom >> /dev/dsp" (hold your ears - what you are doing is pushing random data to the sound card - should produce a lot of noise in your speakers) [23:21] can you guys possibly help me? for some reason my sansa clip has stopped mounting. the screen on the device shows it's connected, but it never shows up on my system. [23:21] gbear14275, np :) I hope it works.

[23:26] losher: Ah, I think it is because there is only /dev/cdrom1 and /dev/cdrw1 [23:26] I can manually install it but I thought it was strange. [23:26] jejedi: what kind of soundcard is present? [23:26] JuJuBee: that would do it. You can check which device is which by doing eject /dev/cdrom1 and seeing which tray opens... [23:26] I'm having a problem with sound. When ever I listen to any music (on any media player) or watch any video (even youtube) the sound starts to skip and jump around. What would cause this, and how could I fix it?

[23:30] well I noticed at the grub prompt is lists the uuids... so was thinking those might be accurate... is that the case? or are those not necessarily the right ones [23:30] ProfOak: You need to rip the *buntu cd to an ISO and point it to that.

[23:49] sol93 you maybe blocking connections outside of your network with your linux firewall or within the x server's configuration [23:49] x server?? [23:49] kitty : where can i find the shorstcut tab? [23:50] jejedi: system : preferences : keyboard shortcuts [23:51] kitty_: i can connect locally. i tried to reach out my remotedesktop with a forward of port 5900, and i cant connect via the server's ip. Thats maybe, the source is in the same subnet, as the target? [23:51] sol93: System : Preferences : Remote Desktop -> advanced [23:51] there is no advanced tab [23:51] if you have "accept local only" it won't allow remote ips to connect [23:51] Anyone knows why firefox won't follow gtk-qt-engine's directives? emesene does [23:51] sol93 pm me your ip address i'll see if the port is open [23:51] kitty_: how can my ubuntu know, that it isnt locally, when it is coming through a forwarded port?? [23:52] the "forwarded port" just dumps all the packets it recieves on your computer [23:52] it doesn't change them, it doesn't change the source or destination for them, it just goes "here, you deal with them" [23:52] Now just so I am clear the ff 3.5 in the repos is not a beta or anything correct? Its an offical release? [23:53] Hardy, Bluetooth, GPS - sdptool browse returns "Invalid exchange". HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!! [23:53] kitty:the shortcuts are well configured with the otkeys, and if i try to change them the hotkeys work, so any idea? [23:54] yeah firefox3.5 in the repos is 3.5.1, I'm using it right now [23:54] jejedi so what was the problem? [23:54] kitty : i have jsut installed ubuntu 9.04 on my HP laptop and I have absolutley no sound [23:54] install photoshop ubuntu? [23:55] do you have a speaker icon in your system notification area? [23:55] i'm getting alot of sata errors in my logs, see http://pastebin.com/m2e1fa43c ... can anyone hazard a guess as to the cause? [23:55] kitty : yes, but nothing is mute [23:55] hey guys im just wondering how do i install flash on firefox 3? [23:55] trism: cool thanks. I just ran acidtest3 and sunspider and they both show pretty high improvments in speed. [23:55] raulh: like on any other browser? :f [23:56] no adobe doesn't support linux. [23:56] lol [23:56] good to know [23:56] pop something into your headphone jack and see if you get sound out through that [23:56] Is any body know about symfony [23:56] raulh: What do you mean adobe doesnt support linux? For main apps you mean? You do know they have a linux flash plugin and adobe reader right? [23:56] Anyone knows why firefox won't follow gtk-qt-engine's directives? emesene does [23:57] i know they do linuxguy2009, but i can't find it. [23:57] raulh: What do you need? [23:57] raulh: repositories maybe? :f [23:57] i had to setup ndiswrapper and i dont get the "proprietary" drivers either. [23:57] or the "update now" message [23:58] kitty : i have still no sound [23:58] I have a laptop with integrated Intel X3100 graphics (i965 chipset). I'm trying to run 3D games, but I believe that hardware acceleration isn't working. How would I check? [23:58] wweasel: glxgears [23:58] jejedi: System: Preferences : Multimedia system selector === marsha is now known as melinux [23:58] raulh: adobe.com and go to flash and download the deb for flash. Its easy. [23:59] Anyone knows why firefox won't follow gtk-qt-engine's directives? emesene does [23:59] raulh: double click it and install [23:59] Is it possible to "undo" an update? [23:59] Drknezz: no [23:59] satisfied? :f [23:59] DaZ: I see some gears, at 715 FPS. I suppose that means it's working. [23:59] DaZ: :S [23:59] flash is actually in the repos, generally easier to install that way [23:59] Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libnspr4-dev [23:59] wweasel: i think so
