| vishal | Hey guys, I am trying to configure OpenSSL on Ubuntu | 00:02 |
| vishal | can I get some help? | 00:02 |
| meisterlumpi | ask away | 00:02 |
| Kelder | its fairly hard to find people who support wubi because not many use it in a day-to-day situation, dual boot is preferable | 00:03 |
| vishal | well...have you encountered this | 00:03 |
| erUSUL | vishal: OpenSSL is a library it needs little if any configuration | 00:03 |
| vishal | Verify return code: 21 (unable to verify the first certificate) | 00:03 |
| Berzerker | kaddi, and refreshing the netbook-launcher made it keep changes, worked like a charm. | 00:03 |
| meisterlumpi | vishal: are you client or server? | 00:04 |
| vishal | meisterlumpi : client | 00:04 |

| kaddi | Berzerker close the window you have opened, open a terminal and type firefox-3.5 -safe-mode this will start FF in safe-mode, test if you get the same problem still | 00:16 |
| crankharder | is anyone familiar with setting up a daapd server? (firefly) -- Rhythmbox and itunes don't recognize it automagically -- any ideas? | 00:17 |
| Berzerker | figured out the problem | 00:17 |
| kaddi | ok :) | 00:17 |
| kaddi | what was it? | 00:17 |
| Berzerker | kaddi, it's the merkeet addon | 00:17 |

| kaddi | just as an info | 00:18 |
| hoban | hello everyone. What is the ubuntu equivalent to the "/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d" directory found on other distros? (place scripts there and they run upon login) | 00:19 |
| hoban | (system-wide...not the user's ~/.xinitrc) | 00:19 |
| Berzerker | kaddi, yeah, btw, is there a way to add a shortcut to paste in terminal? | 00:19 |
| ewsubach | hoban: you mean /etc/rcX/ ? place scripts in there to run. where X is the runlevel | 00:20 |
| ewsubach | i mean rcX.d | 00:20 |
| Zappo | Hi | 00:20 |
| silent | Hi, what causes an invalid module format? | 00:20 |
| kaddi | Berzerker how do you mean? alt+f2 can be used to run comands, but not sure this is what you are looking for? | 00:20 |
| hoban | ewsubach, no, those are symlinks to init scripts. I'm looking to run scripts when the user logs in to the GUI only | 00:20 |
| prince_jammys | hoban: if you use gdm as your login manager, you may add scripts to that. | 00:20 |
| hoban | prince_jammys, right, is there a more generic location? so if gdm is being used, or kdm, the scripts will still run? | 00:21 |
| openback | I have a widescreen laptop (Dell Inspiron 710m with Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME) that was automatically set at 1280x800 forever, and just recently, I'm stuck in 4:3 for some reason. My gdm is in the proper resolution and not my desktop. If I attempt to change my res, the display is squashed. Any idea how to fix this? | 00:21 |
| guest_ | my audio disc is stuck in my drive...Help? | 00:21 |
| edbian | guest_: go to Places -> Computer. Right click the drive and "eject" | 00:21 |
| clusty | hey | 00:21 |
| ewsubach | guest_: physically stuck, like jammed? | 00:21 |
| clusty | what is the name of the proggie that does the gnome user management ? | 00:22 |
| guest_ | edbian thanks trying it | 00:22 |
| ewsubach | clusty: users-admin | 00:22 |
| prince_jammys | hoban: i'm sure there is a more generic solution, but i'd have to research it. man Xorg does mention xinit. check it out. | 00:22 |
| clusty | ewsubach, thanks | 00:23 |
| Berzerker | kaddi, like if I see a command I need to execute on firefox, and I need to run it in terminal, I can't ctrl+c and ctrl+v | 00:23 |
| prince_jammys | hoban: the login process is pretty darn complex with gui login managers and what not. | 00:23 |
| guest_ | edbian nothing happened | 00:23 |
| openback | Berzerker: paste in the terminal is Shift+Insert | 00:23 |
| === lukjad454 is now known as lukjad007 | ||
| hoban | prince_jammys, yeah, that's why I'm looking for the ubuntu equivalent to the old mechanism that works on RHEL/SLES that I'm used to | 00:24 |
| kaddi | Berzerker you can just highlight the text you need and then use the middle mouse-button or click the left and the right button similtaneously to insert the text as well | 00:24 |
| prince_jammys | hoban: xinit also has its own man page. the question is in what order things happen, and whether it's even considered when people use login managers. | 00:24 |
| nanotube | hoban: there is a /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc give it a look | 00:24 |
| edbian | guest_: Try unmounting (again right clicking) then ejecting, or pressing the physical button on the drive. Mix and max. Try all the variations :) | 00:24 |
| hoban | prince_jammys, thanks | 00:24 |
| hoban | nanotube, I'll go have a look. Thanks! | 00:24 |
| guest_ | edbian trying | 00:25 |
| nanotube | hoban: also /etc/X11/Xsession | 00:25 |
| Berzerker | openback, and how about select all | 00:25 |
| ewsubach | guest_: does it say it's still in use? if so, you have to stop the progam that's accessing it | 00:25 |
| nanotube | hoban: good luck :) | 00:25 |
| mykola | hey guys. I have this problem in Ubuntu, CentOS, and FreeBSD and would like to know if you've run into it. If I don't run Xserver then everything acts ok. If I run Xserver, it acts great BUT if I use control+alt+F keys to switch to a tty, then It starts flashing spastically (white then black at around 10 Hz) | 00:25 |
| edbian | guest_: Other than that IDK why it would be stuck unless the drive is broken. | 00:25 |
| openback | Berzerker: oooo, that I don't know! | 00:25 |
| mykola | the problem persists until i go back to the GUI, and then switch back again to the terminal | 00:25 |
| prince_jammys | hoban: Xsession looks promising. I know that a user's .xsessionrc gets run on login through a login manager. | 00:25 |
| Berzerker | openback, doesn't exist as an option to set in the keyboard shortcut menu? | 00:25 |
| guest_ | edbian cannot find app accessing disc will top tell mee? | 00:26 |
| mykola | it's not a really great problem, but if i don't use the tty in a session, then shut down the computer, it will flash like crazy for 4-5 seconds which is quite irritating | 00:26 |
| edbian | guest_: Top is a good place to look | 00:26 |
| mykola | anyone seen this? | 00:26 |
| hoban | prince_jammys, good deal, I'll have a look now. thanks | 00:26 |
| openback | Berzerker: specific to gnome-terminal? Not that I see | 00:26 |
| nanotube | Berzerker: there are two paste buffers in x. one of them is ctl-c ctl-v, the other is select (selecting text autocopies) and shift-ins (to paste) | 00:26 |
| jedc | mykola, i never have | 00:27 |
| nanotube | Berzerker: so i'm guessing for select and paste into gnome-terminal, you're looking for shift-ins | 00:27 |
| Berzerker | nanotube, yeah, found it as shift+ctrl+v | 00:27 |
| mykola | nanotube: you can also highlight + middle click | 00:27 |
| mrwes | Berzerker, you can drag and drop on to the terminal window too | 00:27 |
| mykola | nanotube: or if you emulate a 3 button mouse, press both mouse buttons | 00:27 |
| nanotube | Berzerker: yea, shft-ctl-v is the same as shift-ins. | 00:28 |
| nanotube | mykola: yea, i know, that's actually what i use most of the time :) but he was asking for kb shortcuts... | 00:28 |
| mykola | nanotube: aah, i missed that part. cheers :) | 00:28 |
| openback | gah, my X is a bastard | 00:28 |
| mykola | lol | 00:28 |
| mykola | where have we heard that before? | 00:28 |
| openback | hey hey, X, not ex! | 00:29 |
| guest_ | edbian could it be panel? | 00:29 |
| edbian | guest_: I doubt it. | 00:30 |
| mykola | openback: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or Xorg --configure? | 00:30 |
| nanotube | mykola: :) | 00:30 |
| guest_ | oh | 00:30 |
| emil111 | Hello, I'm new to ubuntu and I have a question about running from a live CD | 00:30 |
| nanotube | emil111: go ahead | 00:30 |
| pharsalus | Fire away | 00:30 |
| emil111 | I'm running from my live CD now and inside the laptop is a 2,5'' hard drive.. can I just take it out while the pc is on, since ubuntu isn't running on it? do I have to unmount it first? | 00:30 |
| mykola | emil111, that's a bad idea | 00:31 |
| openback | mykola: would that do anything other than generate a new xorg.conf? | 00:31 |
| nanotube | emil111: look to see what's mounted, using command "mount" | 00:31 |
| emil111 | thanks ill check | 00:31 |
| nanotube | if the hd is not listed as mounted, then theoretically, yes, you can take it out with no ill effects. | 00:31 |
| guest_ | edbian can i kill it with xkill ? | 00:31 |
| nanotube | emil111: ^ | 00:31 |
| mykola | openback: nope. xserver either uses default options or what's in the xorg.conf file. there is no other way | 00:31 |
| openback | mykola: I did try the dpkg-reconfige btw | 00:31 |
| stinky | hello I just installed a new nvidia 9600 GSO grahics card and my intel card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC888 Digital [ALC888 Digital] Stopped working. | 00:32 |
| fbianconi | guest_: check if it works with 'sudo eject' if it does then fix your permissions and groups | 00:32 |
| openback | mykola: My xorg.conf is the default, simplest one. No edits, no specifics. | 00:32 |
| mykola | openback: what exactly is the issue? | 00:32 |
| edbian | guest_: either "kill <pid>" or "killall <programName> | 00:32 |
| emil111 | mount gave me 25 lines of output, at least 3 of them I know refer to partitions of this HD I'm talking about | 00:32 |
| mykola | openback: hehe... you may be able to get rid of the entire file! :D | 00:32 |
| Tinned_Tuna | heya, quick dhclient question: I'm trying to make my client machine take an IP of 172.26.0.77, but it's always getting 172.26.0.4, and keeps on putting DHCREQUEST of 172 ... out | 00:32 |
| nanotube | emil111: then you better umount anything that looks like a harddrive. :) | 00:32 |
| mykola | openback: but seriously... what is broken? | 00:32 |
| nanotube | emil111: pastebin your output | 00:33 |
| guest_ | fbianconi edbian trying sudo eject | 00:33 |
| mykola | emil111: why are we trying to take the live CD out again? | 00:33 |
| nanotube | emil111: but question - is there a really good reason why you don't just shut down, take out the hd, then boot again? that would be... easier :) | 00:33 |
| emil111 | what is pastebin? | 00:33 |
| edbian | !pastebin | 00:34 |

| openback | mykola: My laptop display is 1280x800. It was fine before, but after a restart, it's now a centered 1024x768 once I log in (gdm is still right). If I attempt to change the res to 1280x800 in Gnome, It's squashed and on the left side of the screen only. | 00:34 |
| mykola | openback: hmm... if it was working before try this. | 00:35 |
| mykola | openback: got a terminal open? | 00:35 |
| openback | mykola: yeah | 00:35 |
| emil111 | sorry, I'm a bit slow | 00:35 |
| drwho | hi, does anyone know how I can go by changing the logical name of the wifi card? | 00:35 |
| guest_ | fbianconi edbian can't set runas group vector: Operation not permitted | 00:35 |
| pleed_ | hi | 00:35 |
| emil111 | mykola: I'm not taking out the live CD, just the hard drive | 00:35 |
| drwho | I keep getting wmaster0 | 00:35 |
| Tinned_Tuna | any one know where would be a good place to ask about dhclient issues; #dhclient was dead. | 00:36 |
| mykola | openback: first, sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /var/tmp/xorg.backup (or anywhere you want to keep it) | 00:36 |
| gverig | Anybody knows a decent book/site/text on linux internals? Not necessarily down to lines of code but on the level that looks at schedulers, kernel modules, kernel/user process space, etc. | 00:36 |
| drwho | and its suppoe to be wlan0 | 00:36 |
| emil111 | nanotube: the reason is it would be quicker, and I want to know if I can do it without destroying anything.... for curiosity, for learning :) | 00:36 |
| openback | mykola: I'm not a total noob, so you can be abridged, lol | 00:36 |
| mykola | :D | 00:36 |
| pleed_ | I m trying to backup a folder with rsync, i m using rsync -a src dest, but it destroys my owner and permissions. shouldnt preserve rsync that with the -a switch? | 00:36 |
| mykola | openback: ok then, delete your xorg.conf file and reboot :) | 00:36 |
| mykola | openback: just wanna see what the defaults do for you | 00:37 |
| guest_ | where do i find documentation in Ububtu answered questions? | 00:37 |
| Berzerker | kaddi, also found a script that will change the branding of the browser to Mozilla Firefox and the logo of the application itself to the orange firefox | 00:37 |
| emil111 | nanotube: more specifically, I'm chatting to peopel about hd's and want to check what mine is so I can google it, that's why I'd like to take it out without rebooting, if possible | 00:37 |
| emil111 | the pastebin is here for my mount http://paste.ubuntu.com/252821/ | 00:37 |
| emil111 | on the last few lines are /media/iomega and /media/disk and a few others that are likely on that one | 00:38 |
| kiaas_ | yay windows..can't find a device driver for a CD-ROM drive @.@ | 00:38 |
| phoenixz | Could anybody PLEASE tell me that there is a normal alternative to openoffice? The package is beyond ... bad.. crashes every 5 minutes, makeup is impossible, NO compatability in word documents (yeah, they load, but from there on it stops) and I am fed up with deleting a character at the top of the page which causes the font of the text on the bottom of the page to change, and other nice "features" like that.. please please, is there an alternative? Im | 00:38 |
| phoenixz | desperate.. | 00:38 |
| mykola | emil111: errm. i would not take components out of the computer like that while it's running. ever | 00:38 |
| clusty | how can I add myself to some group? | 00:38 |
| clusty | console preferably | 00:38 |
| mykola | emil111: although you COULD boot ubuntu back onto the laptop without a hard drive | 00:38 |
| openback | mykola: ahh, but mine is the default: http://pastebin.com/m301ad93d | 00:39 |
| mykola | openback: hmm... you're right | 00:39 |
| emil111 | mykola: thanks for the advice. I'm not gonna do it with this one but I'll try it with an old one I have, to see | 00:39 |
| erUSUL | clusty: sudo adduser user group | 00:39 |
| slacker_nl | is there a way to find out which repo was used for a particular package? | 00:39 |
| clusty | erUSUL, user exists already | 00:39 |
| mykola | openback: xorg is a bit of a bitch, eh? :) there's another one you could do. lemme find the command | 00:40 |
| clusty | erUSUL, usermod -G g1,g2... ? | 00:40 |
| nanotube | emil111: from your output, looks like you'd just have to umount the 4 items that start with /dev/sda | 00:40 |
| clusty | usermod <myuser>* | 00:40 |
| mykola | openback: if you know about your hardware | 00:40 |
| emil111 | nanotube: thanks for this advice, I'm gonna try it | 00:41 |
| mykola | openback: run "xorgconfig" | 00:41 |
| mykola | prolly with sudo powers | 00:41 |
| nanotube | emil111: be careful not to get electrocuted by any live wires. :) | 00:41 |
| emil111 | nanotube: not on this one though, Ill do a similar experiment with another HD | 00:41 |
| mykola | openback: it will give you a step by step dialog which will help configure x | 00:41 |
| fbianconi | guest_ if you are the actual system administrator you have lost your permissions, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 00:41 |
| emil111 | nano: do you think it would be potentially damaging to the HDD in any way ? | 00:41 |
| nanotube | emil111: ok... same idea applies. | 00:41 |
| mykola | openback: or at least, it does on old linux systems. I've not tried it on a newer one yet | 00:41 |
| nanotube | emil111: if it is completely unmounted, then it should be fine. | 00:42 |
| emil111 | nanotube: what about the other way around? If I start my laptop without a HD inside, boot Live, run for a while and then decide to plug in a hard drive, would that be dangerous in any way for the drive ? | 00:42 |
| guest_ | fbianconi thanks buddy cheers...later | 00:42 |
| mykola | emil111: rule of thumb. removing and inserting hardware into a computer while it's running (unless it is designed to be removable) doesn't really work well | 00:43 |
| pharsalus | Where is the .bash_profile file? It doesn't seem to be in my home folder...? | 00:43 |
| emil111 | mykola: thanks | 00:43 |
| mykola | pharsalus: it's hidden. press control+h | 00:43 |
| nanotube | emil111: also should be ok, theoretically. but generally, mykola is right, if it can be avoided, it's better to avoid. | 00:43 |
| emil111 | this hard ddrive was external on USB but stopped working yesterday that*s why I put it inside instead. probably the usb/IDe cable is broken in some way since I have no trouble using it inside | 00:43 |
| emil111 | haven't been able to install an OS on it yet though,, that's part of this experiment | 00:44 |
| ewsubach | will installing debian packages in ubuntu work properly? or does it depend on individual packages? | 00:44 |
| mykola | emil111: lol. you're just asking for the safest advice. if you're not too worried about it, then experiment all you want and share with us :D | 00:44 |
| pharsalus | mykola, using bash and typing ls -a while in my home directory, and it's not turning up still. | 00:44 |
| elec | i have a secondary fakeraid (nvraid) media raid 1 array that i use in windows and would like to use in linux. if i dmraid -ay the array will it do anything to the data on it? | 00:44 |
| mykola | pharsalus: then you don't have one in your home drive. there is still /etc/bashrc for global settings | 00:44 |
| mykola | pharsalus: if you ever feel that you need one, just make one | 00:45 |
| emil111 | mykola: judging from the replies I get in here, I won't risk this HDD with that experiment, but I'm gonna try it on the other old one that I don't care about. only problem the old one isn't here, so I can't do it until a few days | 00:45 |
| pharsalus | I'll do that, cheers mykola :) | 00:45 |
| emil111 | I would tell you how it goes if I could get back to you later | 00:45 |
| elec | also whenever i install dmraid and reboot the system wont boot my 2.6.28-14 kern, i have to boot a previous kernel then uninstall dmraid | 00:45 |

| emil111 | on to another question, does anyone have experience in Ethernet booting ubuntu? I have googled an such but either get no good information or I don't understand it | 00:46 |
| mynyml | to make mplayer the default for video files, i really have to set it for every video file type? is there a simpler way? | 00:46 |
| nanotube | emil111: ok, good luck :) in general if it is unmounted it should be pretty safe - but if you value your drive and data, better to avoid, as mykola suggests. | 00:47 |
| mykola | dunno about that. but here's a really good website that installs debian on your (previously) windows box via network | 00:47 |
| mykola | http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t305/jose666gonzalez/Death_Metal_by_PsychoVoodoo.jpg?t=1250200088 | 00:47 |
| mrwes | mynyml, run nautilus, preferences | multi media | 00:47 |
| mykola | aah | 00:47 |
| mykola | wrong link :P | 00:47 |
| FloodBot1 | mykola: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:47 |
| emil111 | nanotube: thanks again. | 00:47 |
| mykola | http://goodbye-microsoft.com/ | 00:47 |
| mynyml | mrwes: thanks | 00:48 |
| mykola | >.< go away floodbot | 00:48 |
| nanotube | mykola: haha, that's a cool url :) | 00:48 |

| chargrims | evening all | 00:48 |
| mazda01 | whats the best and easiest to use lightweight desktop manager? i only have 256 of ram, i have tried LXDE, Icewm, XFCE4-session, and all have items in them that take up precious system resources like the panels. lxpanel takes up a lot, xfce4-panel has a memory leak and i don't like the file manager in icewm, any thoughts? | 00:48 |
| mrwes | mazda01, JWM | 00:48 |
| nanotube | mazda01: try openbox | 00:48 |
| chargrims | anyone able to assist me with a HDMI output that is not sending sound? I've been googling for hours! | 00:48 |
| mykola | mazda01: i love me some fluxbox. but evil is even more lightweight (openbox and fluxbox take similar resources and are both based on blackbox) | 00:49 |
| ewsubach | will installing debian packages in ubuntu work properly? or does it depend on individual packages? | 00:49 |
| nanotube | mazda01: or for a /really/ lightweight setup, try fvwm | 00:49 |
| mrwes | mazda01, http://joewing.net/programs/jwm/ | 00:49 |
| mykola | mazda01: there's also afterstep, which is light | 00:49 |
| emil111 | oh, the computer also cannot connect to internet | 00:49 |
| openback | mykola: sorry, got caught up. Hmmm...I guess I could try that...but its worked for over a year and I've never heard of this issue. | 00:49 |
| emil111 | it's running winxp now but no cd drdive, no usb boot and no internet | 00:49 |
| mazda01 | nanotube: openbox is used in LXDE, can i just use plain openbox? i am trying to find e17 but i can't find it in the repos? | 00:49 |
| emil111 | I would make a boot image or a recovery partition on it if I knew how | 00:50 |
| mykola | openback: dunno what to say :( | 00:50 |
| openback | mykola: and the thing is, my gdm is at the proper resolution, so shouldn't that mean something else is doing it? | 00:50 |
| newser | hello, I have been having problems with the video player. When I try to play any file, it suddenly closes, and does not play any video file. I am using the standard video player. Anyone familiar with this problem? | 00:50 |
| mykola | mazda01: e16 is much lighter than e17, which is chock full of "features" like panels and animations ;) | 00:50 |
| emil111 | newser: try LCV | 00:50 |
| mzz | openback: did you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log somewhere? | 00:50 |
| emil111 | VLC | 00:50 |
| blknite | does anyone know how to reset the sudoers file -- I have added myself to a group and now no sudo and (default) no root passwd....:(...It is a complexed raid setup so I do not want to reinstall if I can help it | 00:50 |
| newser | how can I set vlc to be my default video player? | 00:51 |
| openback | mzz: http://pastebin.com/m301ad93d | 00:51 |
| mazda01 | will check out jwm, looks promising. thanks | 00:51 |
| openback | mzz: oh, log, sorry | 00:51 |
| mykola | openback: hmm... if gdm is right then yes, something else would be causing the rest of gnome to be off. unfortunately, i don't know what. have you tried reinstalling all of gnome? :) | 00:51 |
| emil111 | newser: I don't know how to do it for all files, but if you play a specific file you can right click and "open with" something, and then choose VLC for default | 00:51 |
| emil111 | for that file type | 00:51 |
| emil111 | someone else probably knows better | 00:51 |

| ShapeShifter499 | hi | 00:52 |
| ShapeShifter499 | can someone help with vga/video card bios flashing? | 00:52 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I just want the video card not the whole motherboard | 00:52 |
| mykola | blknite: have you accidentally removed yourself from the "wheel" group? if you have, just edit /etc/group and put yourself back | 00:52 |
| mazda01 | mrwes: after i compile jwm, should it just show up in my wdm login manager as an option? | 00:53 |
| openback | mzz: http://pastebin.com/m54a70395 | 00:53 |
| Twinkletoes | Logrotate question... is /etc/logrotate.d/ anything to do with the package "logrotate" or is it just used by sysklogd when rotating log files specified in syslog? | 00:53 |
| ian1990 | i need to get sound drivers for my hp dv6 | 00:53 |
| mrwes | mazda01, I believe it's in the repositories | 00:53 |
| mrwes | mazda01, no need to compile, then just choose that from your session at login time | 00:53 |
| openback | mykola: no, I didn't go that far | 00:53 |
| mazda01 | also, which file manager is the lightest, i like pcmanfm but i can't figure out how to add more commands to the right click context menu | 00:53 |
| ShapeShifter499 | well? | 00:54 |
| mykola | openback: :( i'm out of ideas | 00:54 |
| blknite | mykola: no root? | 00:54 |
| mykola | openback: if you have the hd space, see if it works in any other window manage | 00:54 |
| openback | mykola: :( thanks, though! | 00:54 |
| mykola | blknite: you need to be root to edit that file | 00:54 |
| mykola | blknite: aah... right. | 00:54 |
| mykola | blknite: fire up a recovery shell | 00:55 |
| mykola | blknite: we can give you CLI instructions if you like | 00:55 |
| blknite | mykola: Please | 00:55 |
| maddin | Hey there, I want to image my windwos partition with partimage, used a live cd to do that, but it would not do it, question: does the partition i save the image to have to be bigger than the than the imaged one, even if the compressed image would fit easily? | 00:55 |
| stinky | my sound quit working after installing Nvidia 9600 GSO. Is there some way to disable sound from going to the graphics card then to the DVI hdtv? | 00:55 |
| Berzerker | when pidgin tries to play a sound, it just makes popping noises and not the actual soudn. | 00:55 |
| hafiz | hello guys | 00:55 |

| hafiz | i cant connect to my wireless network. whenever i try to refresh. it doest show any wireless spot. but it works fine in vista | 00:56 |
| * ShapeShifter499 "heeelllooooo.................................." *echoes* | 00:56 | |

| hafiz | now im using Wicd, but the lan works perfectly | 00:56 |
| willzzz | ok guys i need some recommendations | 00:56 |
| === McPeter_ is now known as McPeter | ||
| willzzz | any solution for remote desktop which is faster than VNC over a 2Mbps WAN Link (from Office->Home) | 00:57 |
| openback | mykola: ahh, I just thought to make a new user, and that works fine in Gnome...what else messes with X? | 00:57 |
| mykola | blknite: great :) reboot and select the recovery option from grub when it comes up (you may have to hit escape) | 00:57 |
| mzz | openback: if I read the log right it detects a 1280x800 panel, so something else is interfering, most likely | 00:57 |

| guest_ | fbianconi cannot access users groups through'sytem..." | 00:57 |
| mvsn | hello.. im wondering is there any way to broadcast the music played from ubuntu over the network so other workstations (linux/windows) can synchronize in and play through other speakers? | 00:57 |
| mykola | openback: O.o your new user works well? | 00:57 |
| willzzz | this is a VPN from Office-><Home, I need a solution which compresses data faster than the VNC... currently using embedded gnome-VNC and itś slow as molasses over the WAN link | 00:57 |
| openback | mykola: yup | 00:57 |
| mykola | openback: delete the .xinitrc from your old users home, maybe that was a problem? | 00:57 |
| ShapeShifter499 | can someone help???? | 00:57 |
| willzzz | i heard about NX, any users have experience? | 00:57 |
| hafiz | someone could help me with my wireless? | 00:58 |
| dsnyders | Hi all! My desktop is missing. No icons, no menus, just a background screen and a mouse pointer. xfix was of no help | 00:58 |
| openback | mzz: did you see that? A new user created in Gnome has the resolution fine. Something in my account is affecting it somehow :'/ | 00:58 |
| mykola | blknite: it should drop you into a simple root shell | 00:58 |
| chargrims | can anyone help with a HDMI connection which is not outputting sound? | 00:58 |
| mzz | openback: yeah, that makes sense. Does system -> preferences -> display let you correct it? | 00:58 |
| maddin | Hey there, I want to image my windwos partition with partimage, used a live cd to do that, but it would not do it, question: does the partition i save the image to have to be bigger than the than the imaged one, even if the compressed image would fit easily? | 00:58 |
| Berzerker | anyone heard of my problem? | 00:58 |
| openback | mzz: no, in my account the res will change, but the display is squeezed into the left-hand side of my screen. | 00:59 |
| mykola | openback: backup all of your personal data from your home directory | 00:59 |
| openback | mykola: I don't have an .xinitrc | 00:59 |
| mykola | openback: then delete that user and create a new one, same name :D | 01:00 |
| quickstart | hello all | 01:00 |

| stinky | hi quickstart | 01:00 |
| quickstart | how do you install realplayer on ppc anyone know how | 01:00 |
| quickstart | hey stinky how are you | 01:00 |
| openback | mzz: http://pastebin.com/mebf6741 | 01:00 |
| mzz | mvsn: pulseaudio's website claims it can do that, and if you install "paprefs" you might be able to configure it using that. Can't walk you through that though. | 01:00 |
| stinky | my sound stopped working after installing a nvidia 9600 :( | 01:01 |
| mzz | openback: does "xrandr -s 1280x800" do the squeezing thing too? | 01:01 |
| bucky | that stinks | 01:01 |
| mykola | blknite: you still there? :) | 01:01 |
| openback | mzz: I'll try it | 01:02 |

| haf1z | guys, somebody could help me with my wireless not working at all? but the lan work perfectly? | 01:04 |
| shane2peru | the tty's have so large of font I can even see the whole screen, making it virtually impossible to work there | 01:04 |
| mykola | blknite, you got it from here? :D | 01:05 |
| mzz | openback: hmm, can you save that change anyway (using system -> preferences -> display) and/or ctrl+alt+f1 out and back in or something? | 01:05 |
| shane2peru | all my googling turns up really old info, does anyone know anything about the intel 82845G graphics card, and Ubuntu? Odd to me to have problems with intel | 01:05 |
| shane2peru | !intel | 01:05 |
| ubottu | 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. | 01:05 |

| nerdy_kid | hi, I think wu-ftpd is using ssl and i was wondering how to make it not use it.... thanks in advance | 01:06 |
| openback | mzz: ok, I did that, same thing | 01:07 |
| quickstart | anyone know how to configure samba to print to a winbox | 01:07 |
| mzz | openback: straaaange. Compare "xrandr --verbose" output while logged into the working and the nonworking account (*after* switching the nonworking one to squeezed instead of too-small resulotion)? | 01:07 |
| mzz | resolution, even | 01:07 |
| ctmjr | Tinned_Tuna: do you know how to bring your wireless up via cli? | 01:08 |
| bastidrazor | Zappo, on 9.04 no. | 01:09 |
| drwho | Can anyone help me with a master0 problem? | 01:09 |
| Zappo | bastidrazor: OK | 01:09 |
| shane2peru | !82845 | shane2peru | 01:09 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about 82845 | 01:09 |
| blknite | mykola: yes, thank you - you saved me hours and tears :) | 01:09 |
| bastidrazor | Zappo, you can find out what packages you installed with 'apt-cache policy packagename' in a terminal | 01:09 |
| nerdy_kid | anyone know if wu-ftpd uses ssl be default? | 01:09 |
| guest_ | edbian thankyou very much buddy. got the disc out.cheers n beers.later mate. | 01:09 |
| Tinned_Tuna | ctmjr, Thanks, but I've figured it out now :-) | 01:09 |
| mykola | blknite: works now? :D | 01:10 |
| mzz | openback: "diff -u" is your friend, in case you didn't know that yet | 01:10 |
| ctmjr | Tinned_Tuna: ok | 01:10 |
| mykola | blknite: nice ^_^ | 01:10 |
| Tinned_Tuna | :-) | 01:10 |
| mykola | blknite: for the future though, you may wanna password your grub... you know... easy root access and all? :) | 01:10 |
| Voltaire | hello guys how goes things today | 01:11 |
| Voltaire | quite apparently | 01:11 |
| blknite | mykola: will do - thanks again | 01:11 |
| mzz | mykola: passwords on grub are of limited utility (they only help for the case where they have physical access, can reboot, but cannot boot off external media, which means they must not be able to reset the bios password preventing that) | 01:11 |
| elec | can anyone help with dmraid: i have a nvidia array and a single disk. the nvidia array is just for data while the single disk holds the os etc.. the problem is that dmraid picks up metadata on the single disk and thinks its part of a via array but ignores it (?) and says it'll use the nvidia array instead.. so then when i reboot something strange happens and it says invalid block device (which im guessing its trying to read from the nvidia arr | 01:13 |
| openback | mzz: hmm...I'm not sure what I'm looking for, though. | 01:14 |
| openback | mzz: you're saying put both accounts into the higher res and diff those outputs? | 01:14 |
| Kingsy101 | can someone tell me why when I uninstalled wine I still have it in the menu? all that seems to happen is the logo has changed from a wine glass to a folder | 01:14 |
| dsnyders | HI all. Can I launch a program in tty1 and have it show on the x display? | 01:14 |
| mzz | openback: yep | 01:15 |
| aaron424 | do I have to set the nvidia x server everytime I reboot?\ | 01:15 |
| mzz | openback: that is: iiuc one defaults to that, the other switches to something nonsensical and corrupts if you switch it back | 01:15 |
| nerdy_kid | does ubuntu run a sftp server by default? | 01:16 |
| troxor | nope | 01:17 |
| troxor | iirc | 01:17 |
| troxor | openssh-server will provide that service | 01:17 |
| nerdy_kid | troxor thanks in that case wu-ftpd is using ssl and i was wondering how to kill it... | 01:17 |
| troxor | `/etc/init.d/wu-ftpd stop` ? | 01:18 |
| zas | hi | 01:18 |
| mzz | nerdy_kid: keep in mind that "sftp" usually refers to the ssh thing, which is *not* the same as ftp-over-ssl | 01:18 |
| haf1z | somebody can help me with Wicd pls? my wireless is not working at all. cant get any wireless spot | 01:18 |
| zas | somebidy knows how to use nslookup? | 01:18 |
| mzz | zas: "nslookup ubuntu.com" | 01:18 |
| zas | i have problems ON linux (on windows works perfect) when i trie to doa transfer zone in a DNS server | 01:18 |
| zas | nslookup tell me that ls is not implemented when i try ls -d xxx.com | 01:19 |
| x3cion | I've a problem with bash script. How can I find out if a string is in a string? .. or something like that | 01:19 |
| nerdy_kid | mzz maybe this is ftp over ssl then... I can login using ftp but commands like ls wont work unless i use sftd | 01:19 |
| ctmjr | aaron424: you can run it as sudo and save it to x then it will save the configuration | 01:19 |
| openback | mzz: hmm, the modes seem to be different (If I'm assuming properly as to what the hex codes in parntheses are) | 01:19 |
| mzz | openback: pastebin the diff? | 01:19 |
| openback | mzz: oops: http://pastebin.com/m4993b24c And I just realized that even though I ran "xrandr -s 1280x800" before dumping the non_working log, it shows 1024x768 as current, when the display did change | 01:21 |
| dsnyders | Help! My desktop is missing! | 01:21 |
| openback | dsnyders: does Alt+F2 do anything? | 01:21 |
| bucky | zas nslookup 67.Red-88-5-252.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net | 01:22 |
| haf1z | any1 can help me pls | 01:22 |
| zas | bucky, ?? | 01:22 |
| mzz | openback: that's very weird. I don't think the hex numbers matter, but this looks like a driver bug (probably one of those intel regressions I keep hearing about) | 01:22 |
| dsnyders | openback: Alt+F2 does nothing | 01:22 |
| Voltaire | whats up haf1z | 01:23 |
| zas | bucky, nslookup works but the commands of finger, root, ls, and help not! | 01:23 |
| openback | dsnyders: then that's it for me, lol, sorry | 01:23 |
| zas | :S | 01:23 |
| haf1z | Voltaire: my Wicd cannot working | 01:23 |
| haf1z | Voltaire: i cant get listing for wireless | 01:23 |
| haf1z | Voltaire: but the wired connection work great | 01:23 |
| SealedWithAKiss | Does anybody know anything about the screen capture software xvidcap? Whenever I press record the application closes. It saves an 0 byte MPEG file to my home dir - that's it. | 01:24 |
| Voltaire | Haf1z: hmm, did you get drivers for the card | 01:24 |
| dsnyders | openback: what is alt-f2 supposed to do? | 01:24 |
| openback | mzz: crap. Is the Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME driver part of the kernel? | 01:24 |
| haf1z | Voltaire: im not so sure bout that. Coz the other day i just install it | 01:24 |
| aaron424 | ctmjr: thanks | 01:25 |
| openback | dsnyders: I've had gnome crash sometimes and alt+F2 brings up the "Run command" prompt. I run nautilus in there and all comes back | 01:25 |
| Voltaire | Haf1z: ah ok what type of computer are you running off of | 01:25 |
| ctmjr | aaron424: np | 01:25 |
| haf1z | im running hp tx2032au | 01:25 |
| haf1z | Voltaire: im running hp tx2032au | 01:26 |
| openback | mzz: because I'm wondering if I upgraded the kernel before this happened. It's a little confusing as to where drivers come from package-wise sometimes | 01:26 |
| haf1z | Voltaire: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/wicd-wired-and-wireless-network-manager-for-ubuntu.html <- wbsite that guide me for the Wicd installation | 01:26 |
| mzz | openback: only a small part is, unless you're using kernel modesetting, which I don't think you are | 01:27 |
| mzz | openback: this is a regular jaunty kernel? | 01:27 |
| openback | mzz: yeah | 01:27 |
| mzz | openback: no kernel modesetting then | 01:27 |
| bucky | zas M$ has a brain dead implementation of dns ... if you /join #dns they have some good docs in the /topic and the people are very good at helping on this subject | 01:27 |
| mzz | openback: weird bug, not sure what's up there | 01:27 |
| SealedWithAKiss | Does anybody know anything about the screen capture software xvidcap? Whenever I press record the application closes. It saves an 0 byte MPEG file to my home dir - and that's it. | 01:28 |
| openback | mzz: well thanks for all the help, at least I'm closer with the new info! | 01:28 |
| popey | SealedWithAKiss: i think xvidcap has been broken in ubuntu for a while | 01:28 |
| popey | SealedWithAKiss: you might want to try gtk-recordmydesktop instead | 01:28 |
| Voltaire | haf1z: ahh that ones a little dated | 01:29 |
| wwalker | how do I start the ssh daemon on ubuntu from the command line? I thought it would be /etc/init.d/sshd start | 01:29 |
| SealedWithAKiss | popey, thanks. | 01:29 |
| wwalker | trying to help a friend remotely | 01:29 |
| popey | SealedWithAKiss: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-doc/2009-June/013251.html take a look at that also as an alternative | 01:29 |
| Voltaire | haf1z: which version reason of linux did you get | 01:29 |
| openback | wwalker: I think you need to drop the "d" | 01:29 |
| popey | SealedWithAKiss: it details using ffmpeg to create lossless video screencasts, it works well, I've used it | 01:29 |
| losher | wwalker: lose the 'd' -> /etc/init.d/ssh start | 01:30 |
| haf1z | im running 9.04 | 01:30 |
| haf1z | Voltaire: im running 9.04 | 01:30 |
| openback | wwalker: from sshd, I mean | 01:30 |
| b3rz3rk3r | wwalker, an easier way would be to get teamviewer (via WINE) | 01:30 |
| b3rz3rk3r | wwalker, or FreeNX (my fav as it uses SSH too) | 01:30 |

| samosa | When I try to boot in ubuntu it said windows missing Hal.dll | 01:32 |
| haf1z | Voltaire: thx for ur time buddy | 01:32 |
| Voltaire | haf1z: but you don't need it wicd to run a wireless connection | 01:32 |
| samosa | So I replace it and now I cant boot in either os | 01:33 |
| losher | !grub | samosa | 01:33 |
| ubottu | samosa: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 01:33 |
| Voltaire | haf1z: assuming you have the drivers for the card you should be able to simply configure and connect to it | 01:33 |
| samosa | So now I am typing on my itouch :( | 01:33 |
| haf1z | will update the drivers | 01:33 |
| Flechmen | Hello? | 01:34 |
| samosa | I installed win first then ubuntu | 01:34 |
| openback | mzz: gah! I made a typo, it is saying the proper resolution, but still different modes, if that means anything: http://pastebin.com/d63676e20 | 01:34 |
| Voltaire | haf1z: try looking in the connection manager thats should be at the the top menubar, where it says autoetho | 01:34 |
| dsnyders | openback: I've tried running nautilus on tty1, but it seems to be not installed. For Xfce should it be? | 01:34 |
| === kermit1 is now known as kermit | ||
| losher | samosa: if you're seeing "windows missing Hal.dll" messages while booting ubuntu, I'd say something went wrong with your grub install.... | 01:35 |
| crankharder | how come when I add a DAAP share to rhythmbox it doesn't stick after I close rhythmbox and reopen it? | 01:35 |
| === jon is now known as Guest50536 | ||
| self | Flechmen: hi. | 01:35 |
| openback | dsnyders: no, as I said, that's for gnome. I don't know Xfce | 01:35 |
| losher | dsnyders: is /usr/bin/nautilus there? | 01:36 |
| Flechmen | Hello, self, I was begining to thing I was alone | 01:36 |
| openback | losher: he's using Xfce | 01:37 |
| dsnyders | openback: when the login prompt comes up, I've tried kde, xfce and gnome. It's always the same, a screen with a mouse pointer and nothing else. | 01:37 |
| self | Flechmen: Aww, common' | 01:37 |
| Guest50536 | can someone help me with a white scree i get when i try to enable compiz? | 01:37 |
| Guest50536 | .nick rodimus | 01:37 |

| self | err | 01:37 |
| self | Yeah that was weird | 01:37 |
| self | Anyways | 01:37 |
| self | Flechmen: Ask the question already | 01:37 |
| Flechmen | That doesnt really help me then | 01:37 |
| openback | dsnyders: weird, sorry, I'm not That good of a troubleshooter, lol | 01:37 |
| bean | Does wine have a gui like bootcamp for OSX? | 01:37 |
| losher | openback: I don't know about Xfce specifically, but you can run nautilus with other wms. If it's there, it might be worth trying... | 01:37 |
| dsnyders | losher, no, there is no /usr/bin/nautilus | 01:38 |
| wwalker | openback: losher: b3rz3rk3r: thx, turns out it wasn't installed (aptitude ...openssh-server) | 01:38 |
| openback | dsnyders: but if you have gnome as an option for your session, then you should have nautilus. Is this a new installation? | 01:38 |
| Flechmen | How can I adjust the sensitivity on a trackpoint mouse on a Lenovo T61 laptop running Mint 7? | 01:38 |
| * self notes Mint 7 is the same base as 9.04, and noone there seems to know | 01:38 | |
| self | Consider it an "upstream" question ;) | 01:38 |
| bastidrazor | !mintsupport | Flechmen | 01:39 |
| ubottu | Flechmen: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint on irc.spotchat.org | 01:39 |
| losher | dsnyders: then it isn't installed. YOu could install it & see if it runs with Xfce. Dunno if that's a supported combination though... | 01:39 |
| Flechmen | Self told me to come here | 01:39 |
| bucky | Flechmen: good then mint has all the gui configuration tools in System Preferences and Administration | 01:39 |
| bean | Does wine have a gui like bootcamp for OSX? | 01:39 |
| * self ponders if anyone has used 9.04 on a T61 | 01:39 | |
| T3CHKOMMIE | i love linux!!!!! | 01:40 |
| a_ham_sandwitch | @bean no it runs windows apps on ubuntu | 01:40 |
| skryingsword | I am running 9.04 on an hp dv9000 amd64 laptop with an nvidia graphics card and I have a screen resolution problem. anyone else? | 01:40 |
| dsnyders | openback: I upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10 last night. Everything seemed fine. This morning, the system requested a reboot, and my desktop disappeared. | 01:40 |
| bucky | Flechmen: letsee hmmm... System=>Preferences=>Mouse | 01:40 |
| Flechmen | bucky: Changes nothing | 01:41 |
| bucky | Flechmen: i guess it doens't work the same | 01:41 |
| bean | a_ham_sandwitch, Thanks! | 01:41 |
| openback | dsnyders: sounds like a bad upgrade if you had gnome and are missing nautilus now. | 01:41 |
| a_ham_sandwitch | @bean your welcome | 01:42 |
| === Sneaky-Jesus is now known as Sneaky-J|Sleepin | ||
| === Sneaky-J|Sleepin is now known as Sneaky-J|Sleep | ||
| dsnyders | openback: that would have been my first thought if things were not working after the upgrade last night. | 01:42 |
| a_ham_sandwitch | could you not just aptitude install ubuntu-desktop | 01:43 |
| bean | @a_ham_sanwitch , "Wine Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer" is this what I need? | 01:43 |
| losher | dsnyders: were you running gnome or Xfce, or something else? | 01:43 |
| Flechmen | Bucky: the settings are there but they don't seem to change anything on the trackpoint. | 01:43 |
| skryingsword | I am running 9.04 on an hp dv9000 amd64 laptop with an nvidia graphics card and I have a screen resolution problem. any idea how I can get my screen back to normal? | 01:43 |
| dsnyders | losher: xfce | 01:43 |
| a_ham_sandwitch | @bean yes thats it but i recamend adding the wine repos | 01:43 |
| losher | dsnyders: since it's not working now anyway, I guess you've nothing to lose by reinstalling Xfce... | 01:44 |
| bean | @a_ham_sanwitch , Okay, I'll google it. | 01:44 |
| kermit | how do i get the side of my touchpad to scroll like a mousewheel? i sware it was working at first but isnt now, it's an Alps touchpad. | 01:44 |

| Zappo | bastidrazor: ok | 01:58 |

| inx-mdg | jondavis_: prince_jammys gave your the first instruction above | 02:03 |
| veasmkii | you could create a bash file, and run that with sudo, then it would have sudo privileges, i think. I don't think its the best way to do it because it's the only way i know currently :) | 02:03 |
| jondavis_ | will some one walk me thro about installing ssh | 02:03 |
| a_ham_sandwitch | would anyone know how to make alsa work after resume on a thinkpad t30 | 02:03 |
| samosa | losher: sure: http://paste.ubuntu.com/252853/ | 02:03 |
| veasmkii | that way it would only ask the first time, or simply use && to combine alot of commands | 02:03 |
| prince_jammys | a_ham_sandwitch: while you figure it out, try sudo alsa force-reload | 02:04 |
| veasmkii | apt-get install xchat && apt-get install firefox | 02:04 |
| Dr_Willis | jondavis_: install the open ssh server.. and there ya go. | 02:04 |
| dsnyders | jondavis_: what happened when you did the sh | 02:04 |
| jondavis_ | I am spend ing more time ask 4 help than yall helping me out | 02:04 |
| jondavis_ | one on one | 02:04 |
| avi_ | HI TO ALL | 02:04 |
| dsnyders | jondavis_: sorry, sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 02:04 |
| jondavis_ | pm me | 02:04 |
| prince_jammys | and way more than time you're spending reading the guide, which seems to be zero. | 02:04 |
| losher | samosa: that's a bit odd. Usually ubuntu installs on an ext3 type filesystem. I only see NTFS filesystems on that disk. Did you do a wubi install or something like that? | 02:04 |
| Dr_Willis | jondavis_: like dsnyders said. Installing the ssh server takes about 1 min... | 02:05 |
| ctmjr | dsnyders: are you trying to get gnome running or xfce? | 02:05 |
| samosa | losher: wubi install? | 02:05 |
| guest2 | can u help find and intall ubuntu webcam drivers | 02:05 |
| dsnyders | ctmjr: at this point, either one | 02:05 |
| losher | jondavis_: we're trying to teach you to fish (and failing...). And you're spending more time asking for help than reading the howto... | 02:05 |
| prince_jammys | ya-ha | 02:05 |
| losher | samosa: let's step back a bit. What os are you running, and how did you install it? | 02:06 |
| guest2 | im looking for 1810 Ricoh on hp pavillion dv9000 | 02:06 |
| guest2 | hello | 02:07 |
| ctmjr | dsnyders: ok this will install the bare minimum of gnome sudo apt-get install gnome-core if you want xfce apt-get install xfce4 | 02:07 |
| D3RGPS31 | is there a way to launch an application with a different window manager (wine with openbox) | 02:07 |
| Dr_Willis | so did it work jondavis_ ? | 02:07 |
| haf1z | guys, is it possible to run windows application on ubuntu? | 02:07 |
| guest2 | yes | 02:07 |
| Dr_Willis | D3RGPS31: that dosent make a lot of sence... | 02:08 |
| Dr_Willis | haf1z: with wine - yes. | 02:08 |
| MOUD | anyone? | 02:08 |
| samosa | losher: win xp, two drives C:\ (windows) and E:\ (other stuff), used ubuntu live cd to install ubuntu on E:\ ...which is the one which wont boot. | 02:08 |
| D3RGPS31 | Dr_Willis: how? | 02:08 |
| haf1z | Dr_Willis: wine is the best? | 02:08 |
| Dr_Willis | D3RGPS31: the window 'manager' handles all windows on the current desktop. You dont set it up for a 'per app' basis. what are you trying to do exactly? | 02:08 |
| guest2 | how do i get my laptop webcam working?? | 02:08 |
| Dr_Willis | !wine | haf1z | 02:08 |
| ubottu | haf1z: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 02:08 |
| samosa | losher: oh sorry, but am not running xp right now, cuz it wont let me boot, so i am running ubuntu on cd right now... | 02:09 |
| inx-mdg | guest2: what kind of laptop? | 02:09 |
| samosa | losher: 8.0.4 | 02:09 |
| dsnyders | ctmjr: Yes, I've started an apt-get install gnome. It's running now. | 02:09 |
| guest2 | hp dv9000 | 02:09 |
| D3RGPS31 | Dr_Willis: borderless applications without losing my desktop | 02:09 |
| losher | samosa: ok, bad news. fdisk only sees one drive. And it looks like it's the C: drive. There's no sign of the E: drive. I'm wondering if it has failed completely? | 02:09 |
| Sepero | Does lint or a program like lint exist in the repositories for checking C source code? | 02:10 |
| inx-mdg | guest2: Have you checked www.ubuntuforums.com and searched on hpdv900 webcam? | 02:10 |
| Iormangund | hi, how can i remove dependencies that where installed cos of an app? | 02:10 |

| ctmjr | dsnyders: ok good luck hope it works | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | MOUD: same as any other scriopt. make it executable and ./scriptname, or 'bash scriptname' | 02:12 |

| emil111 | I'm running ubuntu live from teh CD and every time the cd drive stops spinning my computer becmoes so slow, because as soon as I want to do anything it has to start spinning the cd firt | 02:29 |
| emil111 | is there any way to work around this, I'm not able to install it on my HD yet | 02:30 |

| emil111 | darkangel: what help do you need | 02:31 |
| xidarian | emil111, I think you can make one if you have a big usb stick you dont' mind wiping | 02:31 |
| inx-mdg | emil111: you can close Gnome-Do and Tomboy notes and and the updater and that might help | 02:31 |
| emil111 | inx-mdg it's a dell with intel 1.6ghz processor, 2gb ram etc | 02:31 |

| xidarian | darkangel maybe, be more specific | 02:31 |
| emil111 | inx-mdg thanks, how do I close gnome-do and tomboy notes? I cannot see that they are open | 02:32 |
| darkangel | trying to stream/save a dvd to my hard drive and i can copy the video but im not getting any sound | 02:32 |
| xidarian | emil111, maybe you can make the live CD load completely into ram, not sure if ubuntu live cd has that though | 02:32 |
| inx-mdg | emil111: right click on the icon and choose "quit" | 02:32 |
| ctmjr | Schmitty: i use setterm -foreground green background -black -store as an example | 02:32 |

| dsnyders | ctmjr, losher, I've got it working again, after apt-get installing gnome. Now it's back to fighting xorg and nvidia about my resolution. | 02:33 |
| losher | samosa: then I recommend you free up /dev/sda5 and when you reinstall, tell it to use the free space on the drive, and make sure the filesystem type is EXT3 and allow it to add a swap partition. The automatic partitioner should take care of this (but I wonder how come it went wrong on your first attempt?). Just be sure *not* to allow it to overwrite /dev/sda1, because that's where your... | 02:33 |
| losher | ...windows system is. | 02:33 |
| xidarian | does anyone here have epiphany-webkit installed on jaunty? | 02:33 |
| losher | dsnyders: good progress! | 02:33 |
| inx-mdg | emil111: gnome-do is a little purple square icon on the right side of the panel | 02:33 |
| inx-mdg | emil111: tomboy notes has a little yellow sticky note looking icon on the left side of the panel | 02:33 |
| losher | samosa: dunno what went wrong with your first attempt. It wasn't a server or an 'alternate CD' install, was it? | 02:34 |
| inx-mdg | emil111: update is the padlock icon | 02:34 |
| ctmjr | Schmitty: oops it should be -background black -store | 02:34 |
| emil111 | inx-mdg: I don't think I have either on , can't see anything liek you describe | 02:34 |
| emil111 | not running netbook remix if that's what you think of | 02:34 |

| inx-mdg | emil111: you using netbook launcher? | 02:34 |
| xidarian | emil111, if you downloaded the standard ubuntu live CD its a gnome deskto | 02:35 |
| emil111 | inx-mdg ubuntu live desktop iso the one downloade | 02:35 |
| emil111 | yes | 02:35 |
| Schmitty | i ran the command without error but it didn't seem to change the color of new terminal sessions ctmjr | 02:35 |

| randy_ | join /list | 02:36 |
| Schmitty | ctmjr: nope, and didn't change new instance either | 02:36 |
| Schmitty | ctmjr: i also traied the -default tag as well to no avail | 02:37 |
| samosa | losher: do i have to still reinstall? i explain, why it did not take entire drive. | 02:37 |
| emil111 | nvermind about the archives, I was confused | 02:38 |
| losher | samosa: oops. That should have shrunk the 400G partition & added a couple of new partitions for ubuntu. Clearly that didn't happen. You know, if you mess about with partitions like this, you risk losing all your movies & games. If I were you, I'd beg/borrow/buy and additional small disk for messing with ubuntu.... | 02:38 |

| Dr_Willis | Schmitty: 'xterm' and many apps make use of the .Xdefaults file to set default settings for them | 02:43 |
| losher | samosa: since you have valuable data on that disk, and we don't know why it went wrong, I hesitate to advise you further. It sounds like you installed wubi (this installs ubuntu as a windows application). | 02:43 |

| inx-mdg | Hermid: unless its USB, then type lsusb | 03:33 |
| Berzerker | boggles, I think some repositories have it. but by default, ubuntu doesn't have it. easier just to install from the deb. | 03:33 |
| luckyone | devkhadka: you are wrong | 03:33 |

| redvamp128 | sheit check the winehq application database | 03:37 |

| jats1 | ignatius: If you post your menu.lst and any errors/relevant info I think I can fix yours. | 03:39 |
| Technoviking | Xenogia: the x-fi are only in 2.6.31 | 03:39 |
| peb20000 | i was wondering if anyone wants a free copy of my mirc script just msg me and i will send it | 03:39 |
| redvamp128 | isn't there a command I can check the fstab | 03:40 |
| Xenogia | Technoviking: thats the kernel i want, the wiki page is just a little confusing for me | 03:40 |
| apoleo12 | peb20000: must be an exploit or something bad with it | 03:40 |
| apoleo12 | especially when its for windows lol | 03:40 |
| Berzerker | afk | 03:40 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: you want to see whats in it? cat /etc/fstab | 03:40 |

| savanny1976u_ | Thank you Berzerker, I have done that, then what's the next step? | 03:41 |
| sheit | jedc, I dont mind using gimp but work with other designers as i print for them and get alot of work in adobe products | 03:41 |
| Berzerker | savanny1976u, then run the .sh | 03:41 |
| Berzerker | savanny1976u, I think it extracts an .sh... | 03:41 |
| jedc | sheit, ah i see | 03:41 |
| Berzerker | savanny1976u, sudo ./filename.sh | 03:41 |
| brian_ | does anyone know how i could add firefox bookmarks to the gnome panel | 03:41 |
| sheit | jedc, wish gimp/inkscape/scribus would support opening these files. | 03:41 |
| redvamp128 | I haven't had to do that since I tried intrepid and now I am on jaunty but went back to hardy, but jaunty seems to be better -- but I thought there was a command that could check to make sure there were no errors | 03:41 |
| sagaci | what are the benefits or disadvantages of using apt-get compared to aptitude | 03:41 |
| sheit | jedc, thanks man. | 03:41 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: no there isnot | 03:42 |
| Xenogia | sheit: if you desperatly need to use those apps, just vm windows xp and install those products. Virtualbox 3.0.4 also has hardware acceleration. Check it out | 03:42 |
| Slurpee | apt-get will get the specific version you list | 03:42 |
| jedc | sheit, it is usually do to the format being proprietary, i.e. not gimps fault | 03:42 |
| inx-mdg | elninja: set "windows auto remember" to on | 03:42 |
| Slurpee | aptitiude install will find the latest repo version and download | 03:42 |
| Berzerker | savanny1976u, follow the instructions and tell it to overwrite your xorg.conf. I'll be back in a bit. | 03:42 |
| redvamp128 | sheit: I would about wine and applications -- check the winehq application database | 03:42 |

| sheit | redvamp128, checkin out wine now. | 03:42 |
| apoleo12 | erp | 03:42 |
| sheit | redvamp128, photoshop looks like a go not sure of the other two yet. | 03:42 |
| jats1 | ignatius: ah, I can't help you then. Although I could probably hack together a working file for you if I knew 1)What drive Ubuntu's /boot is on 2) what version of the kernel you have. | 03:43 |
| mizerydearia | hmm, After restarting KDE environment, it seems to crash on startup. I installed many applications since last restart (24hrs, newly installed system). Is there a way I can diagnose what is wrong and fix it? How can I prevent X frm starting? | 03:43 |
| jedc | sheit, yes, if it doesnt work that well in wine you can alway use a virtual machine to run windows | 03:43 |
| savanny1976u_ | Which directory should use, i'm doing everything as a root. | 03:43 |
| DrDuck | How do I find out whether I'm running 64bit or 32bit linux? | 03:43 |
| redvamp128 | sheit: suggestion if you are going to run wine-- bookmark that site also ask in room #winehq plus personally I use winetricks and play on linux | 03:43 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: are you sure that your swap partition is the second partition? you should confirm with "fdisk -l /dev/sda" | 03:43 |
| losher | sagaci: this comes up regularly, and never converges i.e. the diffs are not worth discussing. Use whichever you prefer... | 03:43 |
| sheit | jedc, have separate computer with xp/vista dual boot so im safe just trying to use as much as I can via ubuntu.... | 03:43 |
| mrwes | DrDuck, from a terminal type lsb_release -a | 03:43 |
| redvamp128 | should be that is the hardy partition and until today | 03:43 |
| redvamp128 | this drive was not on here | 03:44 |
| sheit | thanks all... | 03:44 |
| mizerydearia | mm, nm, I got to a terminal | 03:44 |
| DrDuck | mrwes: how do I reach the terminal? | 03:44 |
| jedc | sheit, cool cool | 03:44 |
| Xenogia | accessories>terminal | 03:44 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: so try mounting it | 03:44 |
| mrwes | DrDuck, Applicaitons | Accessories | Terminal | 03:44 |
| redvamp128 | wait it says sda5 | 03:44 |
| ignatius | heh jats1, no worries. cheers for offering but i'll have a look at it again tomorrow | 03:44 |

| redvamp128 | /dev/sda1 * 1 4773 38339091 83 Linux | 03:44 |
| redvamp128 | /dev/sda2 4774 4865 738990 5 Extended | 03:44 |

| musikgoat | edit /etc/fstab | 03:44 |
| redvamp128 | sorry for the multiple | 03:44 |
| redvamp128 | so I need to make it sda5 | 03:45 |
| musikgoat | yes | 03:45 |
| apoleo12 | you're on solaris?? | 03:45 |
| DrDuck | mrwes: doesn't say whether im 64x or 32x | 03:45 |
| musikgoat | no that is the fdisk cold | 03:45 |
| musikgoat | *code | 03:45 |
| jedc | redvamp128, why are you mounting the swap partition? the system will use it automatically | 03:45 |
| redvamp128 | one thing I need to do is before saving put two returns at the end of the file right | 03:45 |
| redvamp128 | jedc it mounted the one on my Sdb but not the larger swap on Sda | 03:46 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: no | 03:46 |

| brian_ | im having a hard time navigating in the terminal via cd/ | 03:48 |
| brian_ | any tips or anything to help | 03:49 |
| redvamp128 | brian_: tab always helps with the first letters | 03:49 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: it looks like you have a swap already, you're aware of that, right? | 03:49 |
| brian_ | im trying to get into a folder called gnomolicious-0.6 in my home folder | 03:49 |
| redvamp128 | yes but I want the one on sda also | 03:49 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: ok | 03:49 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: then its fine | 03:49 |
| inx-mdg | brian_: tab completion | 03:49 |
| musikgoat | !tab | brian_ | 03:49 |
| ubottu | brian_: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 03:49 |
| apoleo12 | mrwes: theres no -l switch for using fdisk | 03:49 |
| redvamp128 | okay wish me luck am going to try a reboot | 03:49 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: wait | 03:50 |
| redvamp128 | K | 03:50 |
| musikgoat | you can "sudo swapon /dev/sda5" | 03:50 |
| jedc | brian_, also, you can use pushd and popd to quickly switch back to where you were (its like a stack), also .. is up a directory and . is the current directory | 03:50 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: then you can "cat /proc/swapspace" to see if it mounted | 03:50 |

| inx-mdg | brian_: if you have other folders in your directory starting with "g" keep pressing tab until the right filie name shows up. | 03:51 |
| apoleo12 | where does that white blocks come from? | 03:52 |
| brian_ | how would i nav to cd /home/gnomolicious-0.6 | 03:52 |

| megamanx1978 | Hi can anyone help me with a xfce problem? | 03:53 |
| jats1 | brian: try using 'locate' to find the precise location of a folder. Tab completion might work in your case(hit tab twice). Also 'ls' shows you what's in the current directory. | 03:53 |
| brian_ | ya | 03:53 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: the the higher priority should be on the swap on the same disk | 03:53 |
| jedc | !ask megamanx1978 | 03:53 |

| ToStItOs | Jtaji: thanks again | 03:54 |
| jedc | megamanx1978, what is your problem? | 03:54 |
| megamanx1978 | I lost my taskbar in xfce and I dont know how to get it back | 03:54 |
| redvamp128 | musikgoat: I wanted it to also use the one on the second patition of the first hard drive | 03:54 |
| jedc | megamanx1978, at the bottom? | 03:54 |
| megamanx1978 | yes | 03:54 |
| redvamp128 | musikgoat: so that would be /dev/sda2 then right | 03:54 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: try sudo swapon /dev/sda2, if thats where its at | 03:54 |
| brian_ | i dunno nothign happens | 03:55 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: but you said in fdisk that it was sda5 | 03:55 |
| worldwarcheese1 | tonydejoseph: Aright. Has anyone here had the problem where they couldn't reach Alt+F2? | 03:55 |
| brian_ | is the home folder the same one as the one with my name | 03:55 |
| redvamp128 | invalid argument | 03:55 |
| inx-mdg | brian_: you said you are in a console/terminal or are you in the gui? | 03:55 |
| redvamp128 | I think the swap is already on sdb5 | 03:55 |
| worldwarcheese1 | Or any of the alts to get to a command line only itnerface? | 03:55 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: yes | 03:55 |
| brian_ | terminal | 03:55 |
| inx-mdg | brian_: /home/Brian/ | 03:55 |
| apoleo12 | mrwes: strange that fdisk command fdisk -l returned nothing | 03:56 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: if you have another swap on /dev/sdb5, you can enable that as well | 03:56 |
| inx-mdg | brian_: type "pwd" and tell us what is says | 03:56 |
| losher | redvamp128: swapon -s will verify which swaps are enabled... | 03:56 |
| mrwes | apoleo12, sudo fdisk -l :) | 03:56 |

| brian_ | sorry for being new | 03:57 |

| brian_ | im learning a little day by day someday i will know all | 03:57 |
| redvamp128 | musikgoat: so I guess now I reboot to see if it automounts | 03:57 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: yup | 03:57 |
| jedc | megamanx1978, if you cant find it you could try alt + f2 then launch xfce4-panel | 03:57 |

| stoner | films are less compressed than music, if your watching them off a dvd they will appear quiet | 03:59 |
| mneptok | Schmitty: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 03:59 |
| boggles | what are the extras>? | 04:00 |
| innomen | stoner is there a way to compensate? | 04:00 |
| innomen | its not off a dvd but it is a large high quality file | 04:00 |
| Berzerker | savanny1976u, get it fixed? | 04:00 |
| stoner | well you can turn up the pcm to +12 db | 04:00 |
| jedc | innomen, try typing alsamixer in a terminal and make sure pcm and front are up most of the way | 04:00 |
| innomen | stoner, how would i got about doing that in general? | 04:00 |
| innomen | oky | 04:00 |
| stoner | but remember to turn it down when you play music | 04:00 |
| stoner | do you know the command line | 04:00 |
| innomen | jedc, so that will basically just turn everything up? | 04:01 |
| inx-mdg | brian_: hows it coming? | 04:01 |
| redvamp128 | musikgoat: thanks it worked-- now it shows 2 swaps | 04:01 |
| losher | innomen: so it's just the one file, or is it all video files? | 04:02 |
| megamanx1978 | ok I am back | 04:02 |
| jedc | innomen, yea, the volume controls the master, pcm will scale it up or down basically | 04:02 |
| musikgoat | redvamp128: cool | 04:02 |
| innomen | stoner, yes, jedc, i see no "front" but pcm is now 20% higher | 04:02 |
| innomen | losher i've noticed a trend but i cant say for sure, all | 04:02 |
| redvamp128 | musikgoat: i had done it one time but could not remember the exact command-- since I only have 256mb of memory -- it likes to use the swap | 04:02 |
| jedc | innomen, cool, that should help, but you might get crackling if it is at 100% | 04:02 |
| Schmitty | what whould happen if i put a a shell script with init6 inside of the rc.1 folder? | 04:02 |
| Ububegin | is there any version of matlab , which can run in ubuntu... Mostly for image purposes | 04:02 |
| stoner | innomen do you have master | 04:02 |
| innomen | jedc, noted, is there any app which could give volume controls to spesific apps maybe? | 04:02 |
| innomen | stoner, yes i shows a master | 04:03 |

| stoner | turn it up | 04:03 |
| innomen | losher, download, stoner, i turn it up when i watch them if i turn it up now and someone emaisl me the speakers will blow up | 04:03 |
| stoner | if there is an equalizer on vlc you could turn up the pre amp | 04:03 |
| megamanx1978 | I tried alt+F2 it brings up the run command what do I type now? | 04:03 |
| innomen | stoner, hmmm thats a good idea | 04:03 |
| innomen | one moment | 04:03 |
| jedc | innomen, im not sure, but most media playing programs have their own volume control | 04:03 |
| losher | RegressLess: type dmesg in a terminal window and look for it to mention "tuner" | 04:03 |
| sheit | what command would be comparable to ipconfig? | 04:04 |
| jedc | megamanx1978, "xfce4-panel | 04:04 |

| musikgoat | tonydejoseph: do you have build-essential installed? | 04:07 |
| innomen | ok the graphic equalizer thing did the trick | 04:07 |
| mardoct | To compile nvidia, you need to shut down the X server and run it as root | 04:07 |
| tonydejoseph | I do sir | 04:07 |

| RegressLess | losher: I'm trying to setup mythtv. By default the capture source is looking at my webcam ( /dev/video0 ) instead of my tuner. | 04:10 |

| boggles | anyone got any suggestions for my exceptionally slow graphics on my new netbook? it's beyond the fact that it's a crappy video card... | 04:13 |
| jedc | sheit, if you go to System->Administration->Hardware drivers it should have any proprietary drivers you can install | 04:13 |
| mardoct | Sheit: Ubuntu usually already detects it and you can get the driver from the restricted drivers window. | 04:13 |
| tonydejoseph | but im sure there are many versions of the nvidia driver, i just have an old card | 04:13 |

| Berzerker | boggles, what kind of video card? | 04:17 |
| losher | RegressLess: that's bad. if it can't initialise the tuner, it won't admit it exists. What card is it? | 04:17 |
| boggles | It's just an onboard intel graphics. | 04:17 |

| b3rz3rk3r | Berzerker, nice nick ;) | 04:17 |

| Berzerker | b3rz3rk3r, way to steal it. :) | 04:17 |
| zetheroo1 | musikgoat: do a search for Ubuntu and kernel panics with Intrepid and Jaunty | 04:17 |

| zetheroo1 | musikgoat: that is besides the point! This is about something happening since Intrepid that has been causing a lot of users issues ... and not just some small issue like an LED not working ... but Kernel Panics! | 04:19 |
| jedc | megamanx1978, you can just put the command, since it is in your path, you dont actually need to find it in the system | 04:19 |

| Viking_ | any idea is appreciated | 04:22 |
| Berzerker | boggles, on the website, the only one in color when you click "download" is what you have. | 04:22 |
| Berzerker | boggles, should be a GMA950 | 04:22 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: oh certainly ... but what is the point of fixing something and breaking other things? | 04:22 |
| jedc | stlsaint, ffmpeg and mencoder can do most things, but for practicality i usually find the exact command line command to use online, or a script someone else has already made | 04:22 |
| musikgoat | zetheroo1: i would start blacklisting all your modules and see if you can avoid the panic with a certain module disabled... | 04:22 |
| jedc | zetheroo1, such is software development | 04:22 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: and I am talking about wireless and graphic cards ... stuff that was working before ... and now is useless ... | 04:23 |

| skyler | ? | 04:23 |
| musikgoat | stlsaint: what are you trying to convert, and what do you want to convert it to? | 04:23 |
| mardoct | kanuha: Come to think about it, I never use rename. You can use sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old, press cntrl + x and rename it to xorg.conf and save it. | 04:23 |
| jedc | zetheroo1, that is not all ubuntu, if you are using proprietary graphics drivers for instance | 04:23 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: that's not true ... and if it is then someone needs to find a new hobby | 04:23 |
| vikb | is there anything that I could do.... in the startup-manager program or somewhere to restore the default video mode | 04:23 |
| stlsaint | yea i had a script but everything it converted had no movie stream file after it was converted | 04:23 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: not using proprietary drivers | 04:23 |
| stoner | skyler, its system -> administration -> system monitor | 04:24 |
| stlsaint | musikgoat: really any file format...avi,mov,etc etc | 04:24 |
| jedc | zetheroo1, maybe that would fix your problem then. | 04:24 |
| stlsaint | prolly mainly avi to mov or wmv | 04:24 |
| zetheroo1 | musikgoat: I think its the wireless card ... when its disabled system seems fine ... but so what? ... now I am without wifi? ... that's useless ... | 04:24 |
| musikgoat | stlsaint: handbrake might be an option | 04:24 |
| skyler | thanks, stoner ;) | 04:24 |
| stoner | no worries skyler | 04:24 |
| musikgoat | zetheroo1: no, but now you have found the culprit... what wireless, broadcom? | 04:24 |
| stlsaint | is that in repos? | 04:25 |

| boggles | Berzerker, how do i go about installing gmabooster? | 04:25 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: uh ... why would I do that? | 04:26 |
| Berzerker | boggles, you don't install it | 04:26 |
| boggles | hmmm | 04:26 |
| musikgoat | zetheroo1: and which driver? i think there are a couple choices for atheros drivers, have you checked? | 04:26 |
| Berzerker | boggles, you open a terminal, and cd to the directory, then type chmod +x GMABooster | 04:26 |
| jedc | zetheroo1, im using an atheros card on a macbook pro that is working fine | 04:26 |
| Berzerker | boggles, then type sudo ./GMABooster to run it | 04:26 |
| RegressLess | losher: I don't know. I've been fighting for a week straight--hours each day--to find something that works better than the crap software that came with it. I'd take it back, but radioshack won't take it. I'm done tonight. If you've got any advice or anything else to say please pm me because I won't read it here. Thanks for trying to help. | 04:26 |
| boggles | "cd to the directory" you're going to have eo explain that one. | 04:27 |
| jedc | zetheroo1, which wasnt true 3 releases ago incidently | 04:27 |
| boggles | to* | 04:27 |
| zetheroo1 | musikgoat: ath5k ... that is the default one in Jaunty | 04:27 |
| Berzerker | boggles, where did you download it? | 04:27 |
| Berzerker | boggles, to I mean. | 04:27 |
| zetheroo1 | musikgoat: but its a completely rubbish driver | 04:27 |
| boggles | desktop. | 04:27 |
| Berzerker | boggles, then type cd Desktop | 04:27 |
| boggles | and i extracted the files | 04:27 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: what chipset and what driver? | 04:27 |
| Berzerker | boggles, cd = change directory | 04:27 |
| jedc | zetheroo1, way way better than what you used to have to do with madwifi or ndiswrapper | 04:27 |
| Berzerker | I've found madwifi works better for ath cards, ndiswrapper for everything else | 04:28 |
| Viking_ | hello | 04:28 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: see that's the kicker ... there are many who have the same hardware who are not having issues and then others who are ... so maybe its a combination of hardware that makes the issue ... | 04:28 |
| mizerydearia | How can I restart KDE? `/etc/init.d/kdm restart` results in Stopping K Display Manager: kdm not responding to TERM signal (pid 3666). | 04:28 |
| Berzerker | btw, awesome app of the day: Deskbar Applet. | 04:28 |
| musikgoat | zetheroo1: try madwifi for a while, see how that works out | 04:28 |
| Berzerker | It's spotlight for ubuntu | 04:28 |
| jedc | zetheroo1, are you sure its the wireless card? | 04:28 |
| Berzerker | OS X users will know what that is | 04:28 |
| musikgoat | zetheroo1: get rid of your problem at least | 04:28 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: I only recall having to do that with BC chipsets | 04:29 |
| boggles | berzerker, I did that. Nothing happened. | 04:29 |
| Saber_ | can someone help me? i have just disabled my ati drivers from envyng and now it is saying "input not supported" during boot up | 04:29 |
| Berzerker | boggles, yes nothing is supposed to happen, it should say ~/Desktop now though | 04:29 |
| boggles | yes... | 04:29 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: no .. but when wireless is disabled the system stays on for more than 5 min | 04:29 |
| boggles | Do I need a reboot? | 04:29 |
| Berzerker | boggles, now you're in the Desktop directory | 04:29 |
| nburns | Hi all - I'm running compiz with the atlantis plugin and things are looking great. I'm looking for a way to remove my wallpaper so I can see the atlantis plugin at all times, not just when I am rotating my desktop. I can change transparency settings on the cube, but then I lose my icons - is there a way to keep the icons and have a transparent wallpaper? | 04:29 |
| boggles | I typed chmod +x GMABooster | 04:29 |
| Berzerker | boggles, no you don't understand, you don't install this program, you just run it in terminal | 04:29 |
| zetheroo1 | musikgoat: yeah, I am many others would really like to ... | 04:29 |
| zetheroo1 | :) | 04:29 |
| stoner | saber_ if you look in /etc/x11/ there chould be a copy of the xorg file | 04:30 |
| boggles | Ok. | 04:30 |
| boggles | I typed in chmod +x GMABooster | 04:30 |
| Berzerker | boggles, now you have to cd into the GMABooster folder | 04:30 |
| Berzerker | boggles, so cd GMABooster | 04:30 |
| boggles | not a directory. | 04:30 |
| boggles | should I have left the zip file as a zip file? | 04:30 |
| Berzerker | boggles, ok, then I guess all the files are not in a folder, just on your desktop | 04:30 |
| Berzerker | boggles, no | 04:30 |
| boggles | hmm | 04:30 |
| jedc | zetheroo1, Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01), with default drivers | 04:30 |
| Saber_ | stoner: thanks i'll have a look | 04:31 |
| Berzerker | boggles, you have all the files on the desktop? GMABooster and data.bin, etc. | 04:31 |
| stoner | try restoring the backup | 04:31 |
| boggles | yes. | 04:31 |
| Berzerker | boggles, ok, so you typed chmod +x GMABooster (that makes it executable) | 04:31 |
| zetheroo1 | jedc: Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC (rev 01) | 04:31 |
| === sn is now known as Guest39048 | ||
| stoner | and ten type start x | 04:31 |
| stoner | * startx | 04:31 |
| boggles | yeah. | 04:32 |
| boggles | I have now done that. | 04:32 |
| mardoct | Berzerker: I bet he could just do this with the GUI | 04:32 |
| Berzerker | boggles, ok, now type sudo ./GMABooster | 04:32 |
| Berzerker | boggles, and follow the instructions | 04:32 |
| Berzerker | mardoct, do what with the GUI? | 04:32 |
| boggles | Hmmm | 04:33 |
| boggles | Cool | 04:33 |
| boggles | it worked | 04:33 |
| boggles | what do you reccomend I clock my core to? | 04:33 |
| mardoct | Berzerker: make it executable and run it. | 04:33 |
| Berzerker | boggles, if you're plugged in, 400mhz | 04:33 |
| Berzerker | boggles, overclocking uses more battery | 04:33 |
| Berzerker | boggles, so leave it at 166 if you're on battery. | 04:33 |
| boggles | Oooh | 04:33 |
| Berzerker | mardoct, it's a CLI program though | 04:33 |
| Berzerker | mardoct, no GUI. | 04:34 |
| mardoct | Berzerker: Oh, my bad. | 04:34 |
| boggles | heres a little challenge, i need a script that will turn my clock down when I unplug my laptop. | 04:34 |
| boggles | my clock speed* | 04:34 |
| jedc | zetheroo1, it looks like this is the same issue, no solution there though http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1206430 | 04:34 |
| Fox | hey will someone msg me so I can see how this works? | 04:34 |
| Berzerker | see how what works? | 04:35 |
| Fox | ircchat | 04:35 |
| mardoct | Fox: For one thing, type in someones name to make the line more visible to them. | 04:35 |
| mardoct | Fox: Like I just did. | 04:35 |
| Fox | mardoct cool | 04:35 |
| Berzerker | you can start typing the name, and hit tab to autocomplete. | 04:36 |
| Fox | didn't work | 04:36 |
| boggles | berz, thanks so much my computer is working so much better. | 04:36 |
| mardoct | fox it worked for me. You don't see it | 04:36 |
| Berzerker | boggles, no problem dude. | 04:36 |
| boggles | do i just type in sudo ./GMAbooster to change it again | 04:36 |
| jedc | Fox, see my pm :p | 04:36 |
| Berzerker | boggles, you have to cd into that directory again | 04:37 |
| mardoct | fox: Other than putting the username of who you are talking to in, it's just type a message and hit enter. | 04:37 |
| Fox | nope | 04:37 |
| Berzerker | boggles, so cd Desktop, then do that | 04:37 |
| boggles | if i restart......will i need to do it every single time | 04:37 |
| Berzerker | boggles, I'm not sure, I think so. | 04:37 |
| brodymcd | how can I enable hdmi out to my tv from ubuntu 8.10 on a dell laptop 1526 inspiron? | 04:37 |
| Fox | yep works thanks | 04:37 |
| jedc | cool | 04:37 |
| === rushfan is now known as Guest71508 | ||
| boggles | that sucks. | 04:37 |
| Berzerker | boggles, test it, by restarting then type sudo ./GMABooster --detect to test the speed after | 04:37 |
| boggles | how can I make it permanent. | 04:38 |
| Berzerker | boggles, if it's 166 again, it resets | 04:38 |
| vikb | How do I improve the video modes? | 04:38 |
| vikb | for Ubuntu to use while booting | 04:38 |
| boggles | yeah.........but how can I make it permanent. | 04:38 |
| Berzerker | boggles, if it resets, I don't think you can make it permenant | 04:38 |
| mardoct | Fox: So, did you have a problem to fix, or just learning IRC? | 04:38 |
| boggles | ahhh | 04:38 |
| boggles | how do i check when i restart. | 04:38 |
| Berzerker | boggles, just restart, get back to the desktop and open the program again, but put --detect at the end of sudo ./GMABooster | 04:39 |
| Berzerker | boggles, so sudo ./GMABooster --detect | 04:39 |
| Berzerker | boggles, you can do it now to see what it does | 04:39 |
| boggles | shit | 04:40 |
| boggles | how the hell do you remember/know all of this stuff? | 04:40 |
| Viking_ | anyone have skype working on Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit | 04:40 |
| Fox | wow this is cool!! | 04:40 |
| Berzerker | boggles, uhm...lol? | 04:40 |
| Berzerker | Viking_, 64-bit? no. I'm on 32-bit. | 04:40 |
| Berzerker | boggles, dunno, just do I guess | 04:40 |
| boggles | lol | 04:40 |
| boggles | berz. | 04:40 |
| boggles | www.gmabooster.com/howauto.htm | 04:40 |
| FloodBot1 | boggles: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:40 |
| Viking_ | ok berzerker is your working fine | 04:41 |
| boggles | it can be set to auto in windows apparently. | 04:41 |
| Viking_ | i seem to have problems since UBUNTU 9.04 | 04:41 |
| Viking_ | No problems wih 8.10 version | 04:41 |
| Fox | so how do i send files and screenshots over irc? | 04:42 |
| jedc | boggles, the trick is we get really good at using google :p | 04:42 |
| Viking_ | i have everything working exept skype | 04:42 |
| RegressLess | losher: I said I was done, but one more thing: Could this help me? http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f89bc32974a4376e8393001484af28d8c3350ab4 | 04:42 |
| stoner | i cant remember who was using vlc but if you install ubuntu restricted extras you can use the default media play to play video | 04:42 |
| mardoct | Fox: depends on the program you use for IRC. For me, I i right click the username | 04:42 |
| Berzerker | boggles, yeah, windows has a GUI | 04:43 |
| dayo | just update adobe-flashplugin from the command line. is there anyway to restart firefox from the command line? | 04:43 |
| jedc | mardoct, cool, i didnt even know you could do that :p | 04:43 |
| mardoct | dayo: I know killall firefox shuts it down and firefox starts it up | 04:43 |
| dayo | mardoct: ok, i'll try that | 04:44 |
| stlsaint | clear | 04:44 |
| mardoct | jedc The more you know. | 04:44 |
| ethicx | I have 3 NIC cards how do I find out which one is eth1 or eth2 etc etc?? | 04:44 |
| jedc | dayo, you can find the pid of a process by pgrep <processname>, then kill <pid> to kill it | 04:44 |
| Berzerker | dayo, killall firefox only kills it, AFAIK, you can just type firefox & to start it again | 04:44 |
| mardoct | Berzerker: I just learned a new trick. Thanks | 04:45 |
| Viking_ | anyone have good luck in recovering lost partition | 04:45 |
| CaptainCrook | what packages do i need to install to run the yahoo! games applets | 04:45 |
| CaptainCrook | ? | 04:45 |
| Berzerker | mardoct, heh. | 04:45 |
| hellhound | can someone point me to a howto on configuring a logitech g5 mouse buttons to get the tilt to work in firefox and other buttons, etc. I found one before but after searching google for an hour i can no longer find it | 04:45 |
| boggles | Berz, there has to be a way to auto script this.... | 04:45 |
| mardoct | ethicx: If they are different peices of harware, just run ifconfig | 04:45 |
| Berzerker | boggles, there is. test if it actually resets though. | 04:46 |
| mardoct | ethicx: It tells you info on each of your cards | 04:46 |
| jedc | boggles, you can just but it in a script, then add it to startup applications | 04:46 |
| boggles | it does. | 04:46 |
| Berzerker | boggles, if not, I know a way to make it startup. | 04:46 |
| boggles | care 2 share? | 04:46 |
| ethicx | mardoct: yes they are, but they have static ip's | 04:46 |
| dayo | jedc: that usually leaves the lock file in place, and then ff won't start unless i delete the lock. | 04:46 |
| Viking_ | any help appreciated | 04:47 |
| Berzerker | jedc, what's the default text editor in ubuntu? | 04:47 |
| ethicx | mardoct: and it wasn't me who set them up so I need a way of telling which one is which.. | 04:47 |
| dayo | mardoct: Berzerker: killall did the trick. then i started it up manually :-) | 04:47 |
| tonsofpcs | vi? | 04:47 |
| jedc | Berzerker, gedit i think? | 04:47 |
| Berzerker | tonsofpcs, gui | 04:47 |
| Berzerker | jedc, aye. | 04:47 |
| mardoct | dayo: Glad to be of service. | 04:48 |
| jedc | dayo, hmm, that works for me, if you want to nuke the process you can use kill -9 | 04:48 |
| mardoct | ethicx: Do you only need to know which one is active? | 04:48 |
| Berzerker | boggles, hit alt+f2, then type gedit and hit enter | 04:48 |
| dayo | anyone know any good guide to set up some kind of systray (trayer?) with wmii on gnome? | 04:48 |
| tonsofpcs | gedit... | 04:48 |
| mlissner | Is there a way to find the error message when a disk that mounts fine with mount -a doesn't mount on boot? | 04:48 |
| tonsofpcs | gvim... | 04:48 |
| Berzerker | boggles, then type these 2 lines: cd Desktop, then sudo ./GMABooster 400 & | 04:48 |
| Berzerker | separate lines | 04:48 |
| Xerran | Can someone please tell me if method B would work?: http://pastebin.com/d6bf2056a | 04:48 |
| ethicx | mardoct: no, I need to know which one belongs to the ip given inside /etc/network/interfaces | 04:49 |
| jedc | boggles, with no comma | 04:49 |
| CaptainCrook | whats the name of the java packages that enables yahoo! games? | 04:49 |
| Berzerker | we're querying. | 04:49 |
| Berzerker | :P | 04:49 |
| ethicx | JRE? | 04:49 |
| Fox | ok i only have 512meg of ram. what can I do to use less ram? | 04:49 |
| mardoct | ethicx: Run ifconfig. It lists what the IP | 04:49 |
| CaptainCrook | ethicx, yeah but JRE what? i'm using firefox shiretoko... | 04:50 |
| ethicx | Fox:don't use a GUI for a desktop! | 04:50 |
| mardoct | Fox: Do you use bluetooth? If not, remove it. Same for CUPS (printing) | 04:50 |
| jedc | CaptainCrook, im not sure, ive never heard of that, it looks like yics is yahoo chess | 04:50 |
| mneptok | Fox: Xubuntu? | 04:50 |
| Viking_ | later | 04:50 |
| Fox | does xubuntu work as good ? | 04:51 |
| mneptok | CaptainCrook: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 04:51 |
| jedc | Fox, make sure visual affects are set to none in System->Preferences->Appearance | 04:51 |
| mneptok | Fox: yes. it's quite usuable | 04:51 |
| Berzerker | what's the name of the java package to install java? | 04:51 |
| mardoct | Fox: Xubuntu is more or less a carbon copy with a less featured desktop | 04:51 |
| CaptainCrook | mneptok, whats in it? | 04:51 |
| ctmjr | !java | 04:51 |
| ubottu | To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 04:51 |
| mneptok | CaptainCrook: Java, for one | 04:51 |
| Berzerker | ctmjr, TY kindly. | 04:52 |
| ethicx | mardoct: I know! but my question is how can I find out what eth1 is on the back of the server! | 04:52 |
| Fox | jedc visual effects are none | 04:52 |
| ctmjr | Berzerker: your welcome | 04:52 |
| mardoct | ethicx: Oh! You mean which one is which physically! | 04:52 |
| jedc | Fox, like mardoct says, you can use xfce instead of gnome, it is more lightweight for older hardware | 04:52 |
| faisal-alsubaie_ | ما فية روم عرب | 04:52 |
| faisal-alsubaie_ | ؟ | 04:52 |
| ethicx | mardoct: yes sir, sorry if I was misleading. | 04:52 |
| KittyBoots | How do I get an application to automaticaly start? | 04:52 |
| stoner | right jave is in ubuntu restricted extras | 04:52 |
| stoner | install that | 04:52 |
| Viking_ | any idea | 04:52 |
| Fox | what is xfce and how do I get it? | 04:53 |
| mardoct | ethicx: Well, assuming only one is plugged into a network, the one with the IP is the one plugged in in the case. | 04:53 |
| jedc | Fox, you dont need to reinstall though if you want to , just sudo apt-get install xfce, then choose sessions->xfce before logging in, it will ask if you want to make it default, probably try it out first though | 04:53 |
| |TwistedX| | can someone answer this quick question? | 04:53 |
| Berzerker | maybe | 04:53 |
| mardoct | ethicx: I imagine there's a way to find out which PCI slot each one is in. I don't know it off hand, so I'll try looking around. | 04:54 |
| jedc | !ask | |TwistedX| | 04:54 |
| ubottu | |TwistedX|: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 04:54 |
| |TwistedX| | its an ez one | 04:54 |
| * CrAzYoNi Night all :) | 04:54 | |
| Viking_ | CTRL+BK8,2 Hello! | 04:54 |
| === mac__v is now known as mac_v | ||
| === hoarycri1ple is now known as hoarycripple | ||
| eoraptor013 | Hey folks, two questions: what's the standard COM1 dev, and how would I have found that out for myself? | 04:54 |
| ethicx | mardoct: yeah that's more less what I wanted. I'm looking around too... | 04:54 |
| jedc | eoraptor013, what is COM1? | 04:55 |
| |TwistedX| | installing side by side (to xp), the xp files are untouched? | 04:55 |
| eoraptor013 | Serial port 1. What M$ would call com1 | 04:55 |
| automan070192 | hey does anyone know how i can play wmv movies | 04:55 |
| Berzerker | |TwistedX|, yes | 04:55 |
| jedc | |TwistedX|, yes, make sure you choose the installer option to resize the xp partion, not use the whole thing for ubuntu | 04:56 |
| nvantreeck | I have a problem, my system will only boot from a live CD, it will not boot on its own. Any ideas? | 04:56 |
| jedc | |TwistedX|, you probably want to defrag windows before install also | 04:56 |
| ctmjr | |TwistedX|: yes but you should defrag it first if it has been installed for any leagth of time | 04:56 |
| mardoct | ethicx: I found lspci, but that seems hard to decipher at a glace. | 04:56 |
| b0w | menvantreeck: did you changed the bios so the pc boots from cd? | 04:57 |
| jedc | automan070192, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 04:57 |
| |TwistedX| | ok thanks, needed to be sure | 04:57 |
| b0w | nvantreeck: did you changed the bios so the pc boots from cd? | 04:57 |
| nvantreeck | I changed it to boot from the first hard drive. It just hung. It did not start grub. Changed it back to boot from the CD and can boot from a live CD only. | 04:58 |
| losher | eoraptor013: probably /dev/ttyS0, though the naming varies. I would google 'ubuntu serial port'.... | 04:58 |
| ethicx | mardoct: yup you are on the right track cause someone else suggested that too | 04:58 |
| jedc | nvantreeck, when you installed did it install grub on the mbr? | 04:58 |
| ethicx | mardoct: i'll just have to decipher it somehow =D | 04:58 |
| eoraptor013 | Of course! I'm tired; that's my excuse for not thinking of Google first. Thanks. | 04:58 |
| nvantreeck | I installed grub on the MBR. Used gparted to check and every thing seems ok. | 04:58 |
| user_ | how to log into root | 04:59 |
| automan070192 | it said couldnt find packages | 04:59 |
| Fox | is xfce4 the same thing as xfce? I only see xfce4 in synaptic package manager | 04:59 |
| losher | ethicx: disconnect them, then reconnect one by one, using ping from another machine to see which address comes back. Then label them... | 04:59 |
| jedc | Fox, yes, that is what you want | 04:59 |
| jda2000 | If I install Ubuntu on an IMac g3, Will I still be able to set the Power-on time for the box? | 04:59 |
| stoner | user_ sudo (command) | 04:59 |
| mardoct | ethicx: It doesn't list which PCIe slot my network card is in for me. If it's the same for you, it's useless. | 04:59 |
| Berzerker | jda2000, like uptime? | 04:59 |
| mardoct | ethicx: If you want to do it in less elegant manner, just pull them all out one at a time. | 05:00 |
| ethicx | losher: sounds like a bulb just lit up..thanks | 05:00 |
| Schmitty | Ok. So I got out of class today and went back to my dorm roomand this guy I have never seen before was on my ubuntu box. He stood up and walked towards the door and said he loaded a sinister lkm on my box. Then he ran down the hall. What do I do? | 05:00 |
| jedc | user_, sudo bash is basically root, if you really want to enable root as a user you can do sudo passwd and create a root password, but this is not recomended | 05:00 |
| jda2000 | Berzerker, I mean the time that the box will power up by itself. | 05:00 |
| ethicx | mardoct: yup, that's what I'm doing now. Thanks guys. | 05:01 |
| Berzerker | jda2000, oh you mean like a scheduled boot up? | 05:01 |
| jda2000 | Berzerker, Yes. | 05:01 |
| Berzerker | jda2000, should be able to | 05:01 |

| Fox | when does xfce4 start? is it a grub bootloader program? I am pretty sure it doesn't run inside of gnome | 05:03 |
| jedc | Schmitty, yes, i googled it, and he could probably do it if he had physical access to your machine, but you could probably get him expelled or something so... im inclined to think he might have been bsing you | 05:03 |
| losher | Schmitty: lord knows what he might have done. To be absolutely secure, you'd need to reinstall the os. And install a locking screensaver... | 05:03 |
| Berzerker | jda2000, If I recall correctly lol | 05:03 |
| mardoct | brian: do it like this ln /original/file /new/link | 05:04 |
| Berzerker | jda2000, it's a phrase abbreviation | 05:04 |
| jedc | Fox, at the login screen, click the options thing to the bottom left, then choose session, pick xfce | 05:04 |

| mardoct | user_: Not recommend for security reasons. | 05:05 |
| mardoct | user_: But possible. | 05:05 |
| jedc | Schmitty, first rule is if someone malicious gets physical access to your machine, it isnt yours anymore unless your reinstall | 05:05 |
| user_ | how | 05:05 |
| Schmitty | jedc: losher , lol you guys crack me up. If some dude i didn't know was in my room I would probably break a chair over his head. | 05:05 |

| eoraptor013 | [Schmitty] boot from the CD then examine /etc/init.d/ on the machine. (I forget how to attach the computer file system to the live CD, but I know it's possible). You'd be looking for an entry with a recent date/time. | 05:06 |

| SmithX | does anyone know how to close out of a room with irssi without closing the entirety of irssi or disconnecting? | 05:06 |
| jedc | user_, if you enable root as a user, its the first account a cracker will try to guess the password for, and then its just how good your password is | 05:06 |

| jedc | user_, you really do not want to use the computer normally as root, then you lose all security | 05:07 |
| extor | Is there any such thing as a standard ubuntu rescue kernel and initrd? I wanted something similar to knoppix but basically what I would do is put the kernel and initrd in my /boot and have it come up and mount itself in ramdisk with an ip/subnet/gw that I configure it for. And then I can ssh to it and even reformat the hard drive? | 05:07 |
| eoraptor013 | [Schmitty] One problem though: He might be smart enough to change the date/time, | 05:07 |
| user_ | but i must know how to do it | 05:07 |
| jda2000 | Berzerker, Hmmm... That's how I started.... | 05:07 |
| Schmitty | eoraptor0 how would you change the date and time | 05:08 |

| user_ | bze am a administrator for a windows network and we gonna move to linux | 05:08 |
| Fox | how do you change your name on irc? | 05:08 |
| jda2000 | Berzerker, IRC was my last hope. | 05:08 |
| eoraptor013 | There are utilities for such. | 05:08 |
| Berzerker | jda2000, don't really know, never used scheduled startup | 05:08 |
| jedc | Schmitty, for instance he could have booted his own linux distro from usb or live cd, done absolutely anything (put any files or executable code anywhere on the comp) | 05:08 |
| mardoct | ethicx: Unfortunatly | 05:08 |
| Schmitty | jedc: he said if I tried to fix it, he would kill me | 05:09 |
| jda2000 | Berzerker, Is there a nice place to go to browse the kernel source? | 05:09 |
| smokinjuan | sudo su | 05:09 |
| eoraptor013 | [Schmitty] As others are saying, the only certain way is to reinstall. | 05:09 |
| user_ | in windows we can easily log into administrator | 05:09 |
| mikegerwitz | user_, if you need to run commands as root, type "sudo su", run the commands from the command line, then type "exit" when you're done. If you're using GUI apps, then just enter the password when it's asked for, or maybe someone else can help you get rid of that (but it's not recommended) | 05:09 |
| majuk | Hmmm... so on reboot, one of my drives keeps having it's event counter reset, thus marking it as 'non-fresh' and mdadm kicks it out of the RAID, meaning I have to rebuild it every boot. Help? | 05:09 |
| user_ | and do the configurations | 05:10 |

| jedc | brian, ~ means your user directory, directories and files starting with a . are hidden, show hidden files in nautilus to see them, of ls -a in a terminal | 05:15 |
| losher | smokinjuan: weird. A nautilus bug? Or worse still, a nautlius feature? | 05:15 |

| user_ | ya is came to root | 05:16 |
| jedc | Cige, eth0 is ethernet, if you type iwconfig what does it say? use pastebin | 05:17 |

| losher | bullgard4: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager --- Looks like a bug, it should probably only apply to wireless connections | 05:18 |
| mardoct | entropy_: Make sure it is executable Check permissions tab when you right click it and go to properties | 05:18 |
| Cige | jedc: ok, so i'm using wlan0, thanks! | 05:18 |
| jedc | Cige, it will show you your interfaces, the one that is connected to wireless is the one you want | 05:18 |
| jedc | Cige, cool | 05:18 |
| Cige | jedc: yeah, that did it, thanks for the help | 05:18 |

| smokinjuan | love the desktop zoom though | 05:19 |
| stoner | yes you can user_ | 05:19 |
| smokinjuan | though most of it is pointless | 05:19 |
| entropy_ | mardoct: which should be set to exec? owner, group, others | 05:19 |
| entropy_ | nm got it | 05:19 |
| mardoct | user_: go to places > Computer and go into your windows partition | 05:19 |
| jedc | user_, did you install using wubi? inside windows? | 05:20 |
| mardoct | entropy_: Owner needs to be checked. Other's don't matter. | 05:20 |
| stoner | but you might have problem writing to ntfs partitions | 05:20 |
| user_ | ya | 05:20 |
| losher | bullgard4: on second thoughts, moving from office to office & plugging in your wired laptop to different networks could also be considered a form of wired 'roaming' I suppose... | 05:20 |
| x3017x | anyone using the ion3 window manager? | 05:20 |
| mardoct | user_: Your files should be in documents in settings or a similar folder | 05:20 |
| Berzerker | user_, you should be able to access the Windows partition in the file browser | 05:20 |
| jedc | user_, ok, you cant then, wubi installed it like a normal application in windows, mainly for trying it out | 05:20 |
| bullgard4 | losher: Yes, I would think so too. | 05:20 |
| Fox | Hey jedc and shmitty, thanks I am now using xfce. How do I check the computer's status like RAM, CPU, and Network? | 05:21 |
| user_ | inside windows but when boot its ask for os to boot | 05:21 |
| Berzerker | Fox, look for system monitor | 05:21 |
| Jeruvy | user_: from places can you see your ntfs disks? | 05:21 |
| Fox | yea I can't find it | 05:21 |
| jedc | Fox, system monitor, im not sure where in the xfce menus | 05:21 |
| stoner | if not try using the mount command | 05:21 |
| mardoct | user_: You can boot Ubuntu but still get at the files on the Windows partition | 05:21 |
| HellMind | where I should specify the DISPLAY var for a single user? | 05:22 |
| jedc | mardoct, he installed inside windows using wubi | 05:22 |
| losher | HellMind: it's usually set automatically. What are you trying to do? | 05:23 |
| mardoct | jdec IT doesn't do a regular install? Never tried it. | 05:23 |
| HellMind | isnt set because is a virtual xserver | 05:23 |
| user_ | no ntfs partion can be seen | 05:23 |
| stoner | user_ create a directory go on to the command line type in ls /dev/sd* and ls /dev/hd* find the relevent partion and type mount /dev/sda1 /dirname/ | 05:23 |
| jedc | mardoct, me neither, but no it doesnt, most ubuntu users dont use it | 05:24 |
| jedc | mardoct, it installs it like a windows app is my understanding | 05:24 |
| HellMind | I want to run a program that start on a display | 05:24 |
| HellMind | look my command line wine /home/games/mohaa/maximo/moh_Breakthrough_server.exe +set dedicated 1 +set g_gametype 2 +exec maximo.cfg +ip 190.210.47.169 +set net_port 12206 +set sv_maxclients 20 +set net_gamespy_port 12306 | 05:24 |
| HellMind | but DISPLAY is empty | 05:24 |
| jedc | stoner, he used wubi, so its not in a different partition | 05:24 |
| smokinjuan | losher restarting x fixed it... just for the future, you have any ideas? | 05:24 |
| stoner | o | 05:25 |
| mardoct | jdec: Oh. That sounds a bit retarded, but then again I find building pcs trivial. | 05:25 |
| losher | HellMind: it's just a shell variable. Set it in .bashrc or manually in the shell... | 05:25 |
| mardoct | jdec: Hard to sympathize with people that find partitioning scary for me. | 05:25 |
| jedc | Fox, were you able to find the system monitor? | 05:25 |
| losher | smokinjuan: sounds like a dumb nautilus bug.... | 05:25 |
| qdb | hello | 05:25 |
| jedc | mardoct, hehe, i was scared the first time, especially on the mac | 05:26 |
| qdb | now update manager says 904 is available. what will it say when 910 will be available? | 05:26 |
| smokinjuan | yep. ok, thanks for the help. | 05:26 |
| user_ | dev/hd says no such files | 05:26 |
| qdb | when 910 is released | 05:26 |
| ethicx | good night everyone. | 05:26 |
| mardoct | jdec: I have multiple backups. I have no fears. | 05:27 |
| jedc | qdb, if you are upgrading i think you need to upgrade to 9.04 before 9.10, but a fresh install would probably be easier | 05:27 |
| jedc | mardoct, yea, i've always been terrible/lazy at backing up :p | 05:27 |
| qdb | thank you | 05:27 |
| losher | HellMind: how do you start your virtual xserver? Is it vnc or something else? | 05:27 |
| mardoct | qdb: It's my opinion you should just save your data somewhere and do a fresh install | 05:27 |
| stoner | apparently your using wubi so it doesn't matter user_ | 05:27 |
| entropy_ | looks like I need to sudo run this script. how do I do that? I'm in the directory in the terminal | 05:28 |
| Berzerker | just type sudo in front of it | 05:28 |
| mardoct | jdec: Just get an external hard drive, plug it in every night and set up cron to copy everything over. | 05:28 |
| And | who install ghost system in virtualbox? | 05:28 |
| jedc | user_, you cant log into ubuntu without logging into windows because ubuntu is installed inside windows, its not running directly on the computer | 05:28 |
| mardoct | jdec: I also backup to a second internal hard drive because I'm paranoid. | 05:29 |
| And | hello.....i cannot go into the win7 system (virtualbox) | 05:30 |

| lexxy | reason?::::>>> I am wondering whether it is possible to have a full installation of a Windows XP OS on a USB stick! any ideas \?? | 05:33 |
| Berzerker | mardoct, uh...why? lol | 05:33 |
| Berzerker | lexxy, probably not, Windows XP is kind of bloated. | 05:34 |
| mardoct | jdec: Partly because I do some "harmless" experiment a lot, or because I keep deciding to put XP back on for games or to try the Windows 7 beta. I've also done a lot of distro hopping. | 05:34 |
| lexxy | well, true Berzerker but on a hypothetical it is possible | 05:34 |
| Berzerker | lexxy, it is, yes. | 05:35 |
| jedc | mardoct, not really, i have some media, but all my music is on a different server at home, and the movies, well, they were free too *cough, i reinstall a lot too, but now just using vm's for windows 7 beta and having a seperate partition for /home makes everything easy | 05:36 |
| mlissner | Any good tricks out there for detecting USB storage devices? | 05:36 |
| Berzerker | lexxy, check out this guide: http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-22_11-5928902.html it's old, but that might work. | 05:37 |
| jedc | mardoct, really i need to back up more, but cant justify buying an external right now :p | 05:37 |

| mardoct | DarwinSurvivor: Are you getting a error message. | 05:41 |
| kevin_ | I can't find my send/receive icon in my evolution email client. | 05:41 |
| jedc | speedxxxcore, no problem | 05:41 |
| Xerran | I can't believe there still is no thermal driver for AMD K10's :( | 05:41 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, huh, and the ubuntu box is running an ssh server? | 05:41 |
| DarwinSurvivor | on the client? the only message I get is that the machine cannot be found | 05:41 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: if i ping from the server to the client, the client can then connect | 05:41 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: but if i don't connect for about an hour, i can no longer connect anymore | 05:42 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, is this on a lan? | 05:42 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: yes | 05:42 |

| whirmon | Hello!, Some one here have installed the UNR (Ubuntu Netbook Remix) in his/her Netbook? | 05:42 |
| stoner | user_ maybe you can try sudo mount /dev/sda1 /home/user/diryoucreated | 05:42 |
| jda2000 | Hi, Guys! I'm back. The answer to my question was on an iMac the powerpc-utils package provides a bootsched command that tells your iMac when to power on. | 05:42 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, thats weird | 05:42 |
| DarwinSurvivor | whirmon: i have, what do you need to know? | 05:42 |
| stoner | i know you can mount the same partions twice so it might work | 05:43 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: you're telling me! I thought it was just network manager being stupid since the problem went away after installing wicd, but now it's back | 05:43 |
| Xerran | thats a point, how do you ping a IP in terminal? | 05:43 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, is it a laptop? maybe going to sleep? maybe getting a new ip address? | 05:43 |
| Xerran | in windows I would do ping -t then the ip | 05:43 |
| mardoct | Xerran: ping -website | 05:43 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: asus eee, and it's fully awake | 05:43 |
| mardoct | Xerran: Still works | 05:43 |
| jedc | Xerran, ping <ip> | 05:44 |
| zoko | Hi! | 05:44 |

| jda2000 | It is now a nice clock-radio | 05:46 |
| gogeta | jda2000: lo | 05:46 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, i dont really have many ideas, try googling around, thats what im doing | 05:46 |
| jedc | jda2000, what is the name of that program that you are using? | 05:47 |
| whirmon | Bye! follow me at twitter @whirmon | 05:47 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: i have googled around. i found about 2 other people that had the same problem, but neither of them seems to have ever figured out what was wrong | 05:47 |
| jda2000 | bootsched from powerpc-utils | 05:47 |

| zetheroo | I am going to buy an Intel mini pci-e wifi card for my laptop to replace the Atheros one ... is there a particular model of Intel card that works really well in Linux? ... or is it more or less all of them that are good? | 05:47 |
| DarwinSurvivor | i spent about an hour on the #iptables channel a few weeks ago, and the only thing they could come up with was removing network manager, which worked for about 2 weeks | 05:47 |
| jedc | jda2000, thanks | 05:48 |
| vikb | improve ubuntu boot speed | 05:48 |
| jda2000 | jedc, no problem. | 05:48 |
| vikb | after login ubuntu takes a while to login is it because of services or packages installed? | 05:48 |
| jedc | jda2000, did you try sdm? it didnt work? | 05:49 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: the machine is running netbook remix, are they any differences (other than GUI) between that version and the standard ubuntu version? | 05:49 |
| Berzerker | vikb, a lot of startup programs? | 05:49 |
| lstarnes | vikb: almost all services that start start before the display manager | 05:49 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, im not sure, but i doubt it, i think its just supposed to be more space efficient screen wise | 05:49 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: damn. this problem is REALLY annoying | 05:50 |
| jda2000 | jedc, I looked at it. it said it was platform-independent I was looking specifically for something to program an iMac power management unit. | 05:50 |
| bullgard4 | Since I visited a local computer club I have no longer Internet access. '~$ route' does not show a line starting with 'Destination=default'. I did 'sudo ifconfig eth0 down'. I did 'sudo ifconfig eth0 up'. Still '~ route' does not show a line starting with 'Destination=default'. How to fix that? | 05:50 |
| Berzerker | DarwinSurvivor, I'm running UNR, what's your problem? | 05:50 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: especially since it's supposed to become a production server in a few weeks where nobody will be there to ping every person trying to connect to it | 05:50 |
| jedc | jda2000, oh ok, well thats good since i dont have an imac hehe | 05:50 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Berzerker: it won't let me connect to it (ping/http/https/ssh) until it pings me first | 05:50 |
| Berzerker | connect to what? | 05:51 |
| ipatrol | I'm considering installing Virtual box on my Windows and running Ubuntu on it | 05:51 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Berzerker: the eee runing netbook remix | 05:51 |
| jda2000 | jedc, If it is a PC. You might be able to set a startup time in the bios? | 05:51 |
| vikb | lstarnes: disabling samba bluetooth cups will it help speeding up the boot? | 05:51 |
| lstarnes | vikb: maybe | 05:51 |
| Luria | is there a graphical wifi analyzer for linux in the ubuntu repos? | 05:51 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Berzerker: I am using it as a web server (managing it via ssh), but it appears offiline unitl it pings me. Even trying to ping it fails as "Destination Host Unreachable" | 05:51 |
| jedc | jda2000, its actually a macbook pro, but i would prefer to do it in a manner that is cross platform so i could do it on anything | 05:52 |
| lstarnes | vikb: just be careful with which services you disable | 05:52 |
| entropy_ | Oh, I once knew a LADSPA plugin in the libasound2-plugins package that was then being seeked. It was then four weeks since an update and the Jaunty user began to reek; they foamed at the mouth and raised their pitchforks, and headed to #pulseaudio, depraved, vengeful, and huuuuuuuuuuungry. | 05:52 |
| Berzerker | DarwinSurvivor, Odd, I don't have that problem, but I'm also not on an Eee. | 05:52 |
| ipatrol | Is there a version of Ubuntu that is best on virtual machines? | 05:52 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Berzerker: the hardware shouldn't make a difference, unless the network card is being VERY stupid | 05:52 |
| jda2000 | jedc, if you have other boxes up on a lan perhaps you can use Wake-on-lan? | 05:52 |
| vikb | lstarnes: I still feel ubuntu has slowed since the time I installed ... I installed the KDE desktop packages as well.... does that hinder gnome boot speeds? | 05:53 |
| kbp | what to type int apt-get to install gnuc? | 05:53 |
| Berzerker | DarwinSurvivor, it could make a difference. | 05:53 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Berzerker: i have read of a couple other people (via google) with the same problem with ubunut, but they never got it fixed | 05:53 |
| kbp | I tried apt-get install gnuc but it doesnt work | 05:53 |
| lstarnes | vikb: it might | 05:53 |
| jedc | Luria, im not sure what you mean, only thing i know of is System Monitor shows you your network usage | 05:53 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Berzerker: but why would a network card refuse incoming packets from machines it has not pinged in the last hour? | 05:53 |
| lstarnes | kbp: what is gnuc? | 05:53 |
| afed | i wanna bang pam from the office | 05:53 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, did you install netbook remix? or did it come like that? | 05:54 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: i installed it | 05:54 |
| Luria | jedc, i mean like kismet. i need to see the mac addresses of the aps around me. | 05:54 |
| vikb | lstarnes: I have even uninstalled a few base packages like games and other s/w not required? | 05:55 |
| lstarnes | vikb: that's not a question, that's a statement | 05:55 |
| Berzerker | jedc, I don't think any netbook has an option to have UNR installed by default. :P | 05:55 |

| Luria | i know *how* to do it, im looking for a gui program that does it... | 05:55 |
| Luria | ok, ill look | 05:55 |
| lstarnes | vikb: check your boot logs to see what services start and what you don't need to use | 05:55 |
| === ittyBoots is now known as KittyBoots | ||
| jedc | Berzerker, ok, wasnt sure, i know they ship some with ubuntu | 05:55 |
| vikb | lstarnes: sorry question mark came by default... and how do I check that? | 05:56 |
| Berzerker | jedc, think the minis are the only ones that have ubuntu, | 05:56 |
| jedc | Fox, are you runnning a program that is doing a lot of work? | 05:56 |
| jedc | Berzerker, i though an eee pc's shipped with it | 05:56 |
| lstarnes | vikb: you could check dmesg, or look in the console using ctrl+alt+f1 (switch back with ctrl+alt+f7) | 05:56 |
| speedxxxcore | can one still find gutsy repos? | 05:57 |
| jedc | Berzerker, arent those mini's? | 05:57 |
| Fox | jedc, irc, synaptic, firefox, and system monitor. I figured a pentium 4 1.7ghz could handle that but maybe not. What do you think? | 05:57 |
| speedxxxcore | just like to install some apps on my old gutsy rig | 05:57 |
| lstarnes | speedxxxcore: you could try http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu | 05:58 |
| jedc | Fox, if synaptic is installing something then it could easily be at 100% | 05:58 |
| ipatrol | /facepalm can I get me question answered? | 05:58 |
| lstarnes | speedxxxcore: but you really should upgrade to a newer version, like 8.04 | 05:58 |
| Berzerker | jedc, no I mean the Dell mini line | 05:58 |
| Berzerker | jedc, I know the mini 9s and 10s can ship with ubuntu | 05:58 |
| lstarnes | ipatrol: any version of ubuntu should work in a virtual machine | 05:58 |
| jedc | Berzerker, oh, i know at least a few others did, had the option, i think the aspire one for instance | 05:58 |
| Berzerker | ipatrol, normal ubuntu 9.04 32-bit works fine in any VM | 05:58 |
| ipatrol | Is any better than any other? | 05:59 |
| Berzerker | jedc, I think Acer uses Linpus linux. | 05:59 |
| Berzerker | ipatrol, no. | 05:59 |
| ipatrol | kthx | 05:59 |
| Berzerker | jedc, Asus Eees use Xandros | 05:59 |

| trakcyia | It worked, Rawr. | 06:03 |
| trakcyia | I'll link the icon to it's oddball path thanks so much for the help | 06:04 |
| jedc | ipatrol, ubuntu comes with a package manager that will automatically download and install any software you want that is in the repositories | 06:04 |
| trakcyia | Sweeeeeet it's working | 06:05 |
| jedc | ipatrol, there are open source programs for most anything | 06:05 |

| DarwinSurvivor | jedc, Berzerker: do either of you have any ideas how I can fix (or at least debug) this problem? | 06:10 |
| Guest90214 | \Name ajudd4u | 06:10 |
| spO | why do people use sudo instead of su now adays? | 06:11 |
| === Guest90214 is now known as ajudd4u | ||
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, i just dont know very much about networking, i use ssh and ifconfig a little bit thats all | 06:11 |
| scheng | i met a problem when restart my ubuntu: message: kernel panic - not syncing : VFS : unable to mount root fs on unkown-block(0,0) | 06:11 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: ok | 06:11 |
| edbian | sp0: It's just personal preference. | 06:11 |
| lstarnes | spO: sudo is more secure and more configurable, plus it uses the user's own password instead of the password of another user | 06:11 |
| scheng | somebody know why ? | 06:11 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, there might be logs with something useful | 06:11 |
| spO | how do i test to see if i remember my gpg password correctly? | 06:12 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: where? | 06:12 |
| ljyanes | spO: it's a matter of how much commands you need to put on su | 06:12 |
| lstarnes | spO: you can test if yout gpg password is working correctly by doing something that requires it, like signing or decrypting something | 06:12 |
| jmarsden | spO: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for info about sudo | 06:12 |
| scheng | i just update the grub, but met the panic problem... | 06:12 |
| ljyanes | spO: when I'm configuring something I just go for sudo su | 06:12 |
| spO | how do i see the dmesg of my previous runtime , ie the dmesg before my previous shutdown? i want to analyze what errors it gave me at shutdown | 06:12 |
| lstarnes | ljyanes: sudo -i is preferred over sudo su | 06:13 |
| ljyanes | spO: when I just need to install something i go for sudo apt-get | 06:13 |
| scheng | who knows how can i restart my pc ? | 06:13 |
| ljyanes | lstarnes: whats the difference? | 06:13 |
| jedc | sp0, if you enable su then you can log in as root, which is the first account anyone will try to guess the password for when attempting to compramise your system | 06:13 |
| lstarnes | ljyanes: sudo su calls sudo, su, and a shell. sudo -i calls sudo and the shell without adding su | 06:13 |
| jedc | sp0, more secure if they dont know the username with sudo powers | 06:13 |
| jedc | sp0, you can use sudo bash also | 06:14 |
| lstarnes | ljyanes: also, sudo -i is under the control of /etc/sudoers | 06:14 |
| ljyanes | lstarnes: still dont get the difference... | 06:14 |
| OkropNick | scheng: reboot | 06:14 |
| spO | with su -i , i think if i created a new file or directory, it would use the username of my regular user instead of root user | 06:14 |
| jedc | schenge, in a terminal | 06:14 |
| Fox | Is there a way to clean out the cache in XFCE, like I can on my PALM? | 06:14 |

| scheng | OkropNick : after reboot ,i choise another kernel, and get "kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot" | 06:16 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jedc, Berzerker: could that be causing the router to not put it in the table or something...? | 06:16 |
| SchighSchagh | how can I change the default *system* paths to search of header files? | 06:17 |

I'm still getting the same Error" Failed to initialize the Nvidia Kernel" and "(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration". Am | 06:18 |
| savanny1976u__ | I missing something or this a bug???? | 06:18 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, hmm, if you are trying to use the internet ip then you need port forwarding set up on the router, if its just the local ip, then its just a matter of the ports being open on your computer, so that is weird | 06:18 |

| DarwinSurvivor | jedc: ok | 06:23 |
| ljyanes | lstarnes: ok, so just by checking the bios if that was the problem Ubuntu is going to detect it automagically? | 06:23 |
| kyle_ | ohh | 06:23 |

| jedc | !ask | kyle_ | 06:23 |
| lstarnes | ljyanes: it should detect it automatically | 06:23 |

| kyle_ | lol | 06:24 |
| jedc | :p | 06:24 |

| scheng | OkropNick: where is backups ? | 06:24 |
| kyle_ | i know but how exatly | 06:24 |
| jedc | DarwinSurvivor, sorry we couldnt be of more help | 06:24 |
| ljyanes | ok, so i will be right back, im going to check on that... | 06:24 |
| lstarnes | kyle_: type its comamnd name in the terminal | 06:24 |
| scheng | OkropNick: and how to restore ? sorrry, i am not familiar with these.. | 06:24 |
| SchighSchagh | kyle_ a lot of linux programs don't have UI... they're just command line programs. that's actually one of the nice benefits of linux... you can have a kick-ass command line program, and then others can come and use that program in different useful ways (such as adding a graphical UI) | 06:25 |
| kyle_ | and if i dont know the command name, example i installed webcam-server so what would the ocmmand line be or where could i find it? | 06:25 |
| lstarnes | kyle_: you could try typing part of the command then pressing tab | 06:25 |
| spO | is there something other than dmesg that shows shutdown messages? because my dmesg log files do not show the errors that i could my last shutdown | 06:25 |
| OkropNick | scheng: there is a chance that you have these fikes with ~ as a last letter of name in the same directories | 06:25 |
| savanny1976u__ | rh0057, "fatal server error: no screen found" | 06:25 |

| SchighSchagh | kyle_ in synaptic, you can actually right click on a package, and one of the menu items lets you see what files were installed by that package... I often use that feature to find out what exactly was installed | 06:26 |
| OkropNick | scheng: let's start private chat | 06:26 |
| kyle_ | ok so more often than not the program name will also be the command? | 06:26 |
| SchighSchagh | yes | 06:26 |
| kyle_ | cool thanks | 06:26 |
| lstarnes | kyle_: usually it will be the same as the program name or it will be something similar | 06:26 |
| kyle_ | heres a more advanced question | 06:27 |
| BlandCapitalist1 | Could anyone help me with the "burning" of a .img file to SD card that is connected via the USB port of an HTC Touch Pro? The card mounts and can be formatted, but when I go to ImageWriter, all I see in details is that the volume, sdd, unmounted successfully, after which nothing appears even after waiting 30 minutes with no further interaction. | 06:27 |
| savanny1976u__ | and "Failed to initialize the NVIDIA Kernel module" | 06:27 |
| === Commie_Cary is now known as Lenin_Cat | ||
| jedc | kyle_, usually the package name is the name of the command, unless the package is just a bunch of scripts usually called something like something-utils | 06:28 |
| savanny1976u__ | Any idea?? is this a bug? | 06:28 |
| SchighSchagh | BlandCapitalist1: have you tried opening the .iso as an archive, and then copying the files over to your SD card? | 06:28 |
| lstarnes | savanny1976u__: you weren't using the official restricted drivers for ubuntu, were you? | 06:28 |
| kyle_ | i got WoW working under wine but the framerate sucks, and i read in a forum if you run WoW as its own xserver that it gives better frame rates and i tried the commands given but it doesnt work or it tells me i dont have permission any ideas. i could be wrong but im thinking i need to shut down the current xserver and start it from jsut a basic terminal? | 06:29 |
| SchighSchagh | BlandCapitalist1: also, instead of uparchiving the .iso, you can also mount it as a folder | 06:29 |
| jedc | kyle_, if it says you dont have permission put a sudo before the commands | 06:29 |
| SchighSchagh | BlandCapitalist1: mount -o loop path/to/iso path/to/folder/to/mount/at | 06:29 |
| BlandCapitalist1 | SchighSchagh: I figure I could do that, but the disk might not boot into Moblin | 06:29 |
| kyle_ | i tired that and it still said something like i dont have permission to start an xserver | 06:30 |
| anr78 | This is what /var/log/syslog says before my system goes down http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d563fe8b6. Nothing spooky here? | 06:30 |
| savanny1976u__ | No, I can't see a support for Nvidia 200 series, | 06:30 |
| SchighSchagh | BlandCapitalist1: I would try copying it like that, then use some separate tool to set the boot flag on the disk | 06:30 |
| BlandCapitalist1 | SchighSchagh: And that command would mount the img to "sdd?" | 06:30 |
| BlandCapitalist1 | Okay, I will give that a try. Do you know what I could use to set the boot flag? | 06:30 |
| SchighSchagh | BlandCapitalist1: erm, try gparted | 06:31 |
| BlandCapitalist1 | Oh, I didn't realize it could do that. Thanks | 06:31 |
| savanny1976u__ | "Hardware drivers" is recommending that Use (version 180) | 06:31 |
| SchighSchagh | BlandCapitalist1: no, you don't want to mount the image to the disk directly. you want to mount it somewhere locally, then copy it from that folder to the disk | 06:31 |
| SchighSchagh | BlandCapitalist1: no copying takes place when you mont | 06:32 |
| BlandCapitalist1 | Okay, got it | 06:32 |

| ipatrol | We should change our TLD to .org | 06:33 |
| jedc | kyle_, see if it helps to turn visual affects to none in System->Preferences->Appearance also | 06:33 |
| mib_mib | SchighSchagh: i have vista, and i use vmware, so i used vmware to extend the partition size to a total of 20 gb (it was 8 gb before), that wokred fine using vmware tools, but now i need to extend the ubuntu partition inside the virtual machine | 06:34 |
| courtneyy | supp supp supp ? | 06:34 |
| courtneyy | anyone talking ? | 06:34 |
| mib_mib | SchighSchagh: so i am trying to extend this ubuntu virtual machine to 20 gb total | 06:34 |
| ghetto | Hi | 06:34 |
| ipatrol | This channel is always busy | 06:34 |
| jedc | kyle_, you might be able to get better advice in the #wine channel also | 06:35 |
| kbp | mib_mib: if you would like to extend the "extended area" to cover all those unallocated space (and then u can create a partition), then you must unlock it first (the locked key is there). I | 06:35 |
| kyle_ | would that be cause im in gnome while trying to do this? | 06:35 |
| courtneyy | heyy heyy heyy ! | 06:35 |

| mib_mib | SchighSchagh: Yessir | 06:37 |
| spO | does installing ati/fglrx need any customization to install on a custom kernel? | 06:37 |
| SchighSchagh | mib_mib: the problem is that swap partition in the middle... I'm not sure how to merge non-congruent blocks, but I'm pretty sure it's actually possible in linux | 06:38 |
| kbp | mib_mib: as it contains swap thing, if u would like to unlock, the easiest way is boot up using CD and use gparted. | 06:38 |
| === Vincent is now known as Guest35358 | ||
| Nitrxgen | mergerkjg | 06:38 |
| mib_mib | SchighSchagh: so can i unmount the swap and the ext3 in the middle, and then create the again afterward? | 06:38 |
| SchighSchagh | mib_mib: what I would suggest is delete the swap partition (you may have to first disable it and reboot before you can delete it), then merge the two partitions, then create space for the swap partition at the beginning of the disk | 06:39 |
| === kal is now known as kalg | ||
| mib_mib | SchighSchagh: is it possible to create a swap partition before a disk? | 06:39 |
| SchighSchagh | mib_mib: also, I'm not sure about resizing the partition the system is running off of... pop in a live CD to do all your partition mods | 06:40 |
| SchighSchagh | mib_mib: you should just create a new disk in VMware for the swap partition | 06:40 |
| SchighSchagh | mib_mib: then you won't run into this problem again if you ever resize in the future | 06:40 |
| SchighSchagh | mib_mib: and yes, I generally place my swap partition at the start of the disk | 06:41 |
| mib_mib | SchighSchagh: hmmmm okay.... so boot up with a live cd, delete the 'extended' partition (which include the swap partition), create a new swap partition at the beginning of the disk, and merge the two | 06:41 |

| SchighSchagh | nice | 06:43 |
| kbp | mib_mib: http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page Boot up use partimage. Simply just resize the "extended area" to cover that space. then create a partiion. no need to delete or wateva | 06:43 |

| rski | iofafo: no | 07:14 |
| motnahP | rski, trust me when I say this: you might not want to swear. I know this from experience. | 07:14 |
| tread | for those interested, the solution to System > Preferences > Sound not working was to use gstreamer-properties. Then it started using the sound card I told it to. | 07:14 |
| Kartagis | hello. even though I have bound Lock Screen to F12, it doesn't work. how could that happen? | 07:14 |
| rski | i might i might not, sure. :) | 07:14 |
| iofafo | how is that possible at all | 07:14 |
| iofafo | rski: I'm pretty positive I've done this before | 07:14 |

| mib_mib | RazorCut: just boot from the live cd and wipe your hard drive, the easiest way. | 07:21 |
| spO | what is a fusion device? | 07:21 |
| hdz | just reboot with cd and use the parted program from linux, or you can use winblowz too | 07:21 |
| hdz | or qparted | 07:21 |
| RazorCut | i get errors | 07:21 |
| RazorCut | hdc... | 07:21 |
| mib_mib | hdz: you have experience with qtparted? | 07:21 |
| hdz | but better to do it with live cd or boot off c | 07:22 |
| hdz | d | 07:22 |
| hdz | yeah | 07:22 |
| RazorCut | blah blah I?O errors | 07:22 |
| hdz | qtparted and the other parte | 07:22 |
| RazorCut | ok where can i get this live cd from? | 07:22 |
| hdz | i think cfdisk is better then qtparted | 07:22 |
| hdz | qtparted turns off swap | 07:22 |
| hdz | ubuntu.com | 07:22 |
| RazorCut | just give me a link for something | 07:22 |
| mib_mib | hdz: can you check this out and see why I can't extend this partition? http://drop.io/brk4lbr | 07:22 |

| hdz | download the alternative livecd for ubuntu | 07:23 |
| mib_mib | RazorCut: people don't like helping people who don't help themselves | 07:23 |
| perturbed | is it that i cannot run a n application in the background without the task bar ? | 07:23 |
| DigitalKiwi | cfdisk and qtparted are barely in the same category :/ | 07:23 |
| hdz | prob cuz it extends the 1024 boundry | 07:23 |
| perturbed | is it that i cannot run an application in the background without the task bar ? | 07:23 |
| hdz | i didn't check the url i'm still trying to get my question answered | 07:23 |

| hdz | then just boot with windows or moreso, ubutu cd and it will do that for you | 07:24 |
| hdz | you dont have to go the full process either | 07:24 |
| hdz | or boot with just dos disk and format c: | 07:24 |
| RazorCut | i have unbuntu installer cd | 07:24 |

| hdz | cd has errors then | 07:26 |
| hdz | reburn iso | 07:26 |
| Madpilot | Vinceman, lots of people do. what's your specific question? | 07:26 |
| mneptok | RazorCut: use md5sum to esnure the CD is correct | 07:26 |
| perturbed | what is a dock ? | 07:26 |
| mneptok | RazorCut: or use the menu option at boot to check for errors | 07:26 |
| Vinceman | what option in the message filter window is the X-spam-status flag? | 07:26 |
| hdz | anyone know how to change printer options to make black ink print enforced | 07:26 |
| RazorCut | i did that | 07:26 |
| Vinceman | (@Madpilot) | 07:26 |
| hdz | yeah better to use menu hit f4 for it | 07:26 |
| hdz | or f6 | 07:27 |
| RazorCut | and it found like 29000+error | 07:27 |
| wizz | hola | 07:27 |
| hdz | then you need to fix your mbr | 07:27 |
| hdz | go to bootdisk.com | 07:27 |
| mneptok | RazorCut: so there's your problem | 07:27 |
| hdz | fix your mbr | 07:27 |
| RazorCut | i have grub | 07:27 |
| hdz | and format your drive | 07:27 |
| FloodBot1 | hdz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:27 |
| Madpilot | Vinceman, not sure - have you checked the manual? ( | 07:27 |
| mneptok | RazorCut: you have a bad CD burn | 07:27 |
| hdz | sorry | 07:27 |
| wizz | alguien de mexico | 07:27 |
| mneptok | RazorCut: download another CD image using BitTorrent and burn it again. at the slowest speed possible | 07:27 |
| Madpilot | ubottu, es | wizz | 07:28 |
| ubottu | wizz: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 07:28 |
| hdz | fdisk /mbr from dos disk then format c: or load windows OS and install then overwrite with ubuntu install, but if you have crc error your cd has errors on it, you need a new cd | 07:28 |
| hdz | do what mneptok said | 07:28 |
| hdz | cuz he's right | 07:28 |
| hdz | or burn knoppix image to usb flash do same thing | 07:29 |
| motnahP | audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosing: Failed to connect: Connection refused | 07:29 |
| Vinceman | Madpilot, the manual is a really small file | 07:29 |
| Madpilot | Vinceman, yeah, it's not great. I use Evolution, but don't do a lot of filtering or sorting automatically in it. | 07:30 |
| RazorCut | hdz i like the idea of installing mbr, can you help me with that? | 07:30 |
| yowshi | i need an audacious style player anyone know of any? | 07:30 |
| rski | yowshi: xmms | 07:30 |
| Vinceman | Madpilot, but you have to keep everything clean, in your real house you can't have opened mail from years ago laying around either | 07:31 |
| mneptok | RazorCut: you cannot do anything with Ubuntu until you have a CD that actually works | 07:31 |
| anr78 | Anyone know there whereabouts of the repository that offers the latest nVidia-drivers for Ubuntu? | 07:31 |
| yowshi | rski: not in the repo? | 07:31 |
| Loafers | What is the difference between hardy-proposed and hardy-backports? Arn't they the same since they both offer pre-released updates? | 07:31 |
| rski | yowshi: nope | 07:31 |
| Madpilot | Vinceman, the accounts I run thru Evolution are low-volume enough I just sort manually. | 07:31 |
| Luria | am i understanding the download page correctly: 9.04 amd64 is no longer based on the alt cd and is now a live cd? | 07:32 |
| RazorCut | mneptok should i download ubuntu live cd? | 07:32 |
| motnahP | That's what comes up when I click the Test button on the Devices tab. | 07:32 |
| motnahP | :( | 07:32 |
| RazorCut | btw, AMD | 07:32 |
| Ruby | Um | 07:33 |
| Ruby | Is Xorg.conf in etc/X11 important | 07:33 |

| Berzerker | SchighSchagh, why do you have an HDMI port lol I don't have one on either of my GTX260s. | 07:39 |
| Vinceman | is thunderbird much better than evolution? | 07:39 |
| Guest22565 | RazorCut: are you SERIOUSLY complaining about 750KB/sec? | 07:39 |
| Berzerker | Vinceman, I found it works better. | 07:40 |

| Saraphim | Hi guys. I'm having trouble diagnosing an intermittent network problem. When starting my PC with Jaunty it will either work or it wont (everything pinged has destination unreachable.) Trouble is, whether it's in a working state or not, ifconfig, route and ethtool ALL give the same output. Does anyone have a pointer on where to go from here? | 07:50 |
| Saraphim | Oh and weirdly, ethtool -t will sometimes flip the state of the ethernet. | 07:50 |
| ^Phantom^ | Ubuntu forgot it's there and now ubuntu is refusing to output any sound. | 07:50 |
| pelle_ | Where do you change your login-password? | 07:50 |
| kiaas_ | is there anything like VMware Fusion for linux? I know that particular program is available on mac os x. | 07:50 |
| Saraphim | pelle_: passwd in a terminal. | 07:50 |
| pelle_ | ty | 07:50 |
| Berzerker | kiaas_, Crossover works on linux, if you want a VM environment, check out Vbox. | 07:50 |
| kiaas_ | Berzerker, I'm using Vbox, it's nice, but I'd like a bit more integration | 07:51 |
| Berzerker | kiaas_, don't know of anything else then. | 07:51 |
| Saraphim | kiaas_: How about vmware workstation? | 07:51 |
| kiaas_ | Berzerker, k. WINE doesn't work with 1 specific program well enough. and I'd like it to "look" the same to the users as running it natively, similar to WINE. | 07:52 |
| mib_mib | Saraphim: vmware works on ubuntu for sure | 07:52 |
| Ruby | Alright I restarted | 07:52 |
| Saraphim | mib_mib: I know, was telling kiaas. ;) | 07:52 |
| Berzerker | kiaas_, try crossover then | 07:52 |

| mib_mib | Saraphim: o. sorry. | 07:53 |
| Ruby | When I try to save my NVIDIA X server settings | 07:53 |
| Ruby | It says "Unable to remove old X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'. | 07:53 |
| kiaas_ | I doubt it'd work in crossover, but I may as well try. I have the LameDuck version around here. | 07:53 |
| ^Phantom^ | The main sound control thing is there, but all applications that use sound are acting like there's no sound card even installed on my system. | 07:53 |
| Saraphim | kiaas_: In case you missed it, VMWare workstation works in Ubuntu and has unity support and the likes. | 07:53 |
| Berzerker | Ruby, exit the settings window. open a terminal, type sudo nvidia-settings. | 07:54 |

| user_ | how to install xchat on new pc | 08:02 |
| indus | user_: sudo apt-get install xchat | 08:02 |
| RazorCut | i have this program | 08:02 |
| RazorCut | unetbootin-windows-357.exe | 08:02 |
| Berzerker | user_, sudo apt-get install xchat | 08:02 |
| Berzerker | RazorCut, use this: http://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/0.2/0.2/+download/win32diskimager-RELEASE-0.2-r23-win32.zip | 08:02 |
| Berzerker | RazorCut, unetbootin didn't work well last time I tried it. | 08:02 |
| indus | user_: or try sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome which is a simpler version less options | 08:02 |

| Saraphim | Hi guys. I'm having trouble diagnosing an intermittent network problem. When starting my PC with Jaunty it will either work or it wont (everything pinged has destination unreachable.) Trouble is, whether it's in a working state or not, ifconfig, route and ethtool ALL give the same output. Does anyone have a pointer on where to go from here? Strangely, ethtool -t will sometimes flip the state. | 08:05 |
| indus | pipi: do u have an ubuntu support question | 08:05 |
| pipi | :) | 08:05 |

| tleuser | new friend | 08:09 |
| SchighSchagh | Saraphim: looks like ethtool -t will by default do an offline test, which takes your controller offline, so I guess it starts back up correctly... | 08:09 |

| vaio | Hey can someone help me set up my dual monitors? | 08:10 |
| SchighSchagh | Saraphim: if you have dual-boot, does anything like this happen in other OS's? | 08:10 |
| vaio | my external says it isnt getting a signal | 08:10 |
| kyle_ | yay i got wow running properly now | 08:10 |
| SchighSchagh | kyle_ nice! | 08:10 |
| Berzerker | RazorCut, strange. try unetbootin then, maybe that will work for you. It probably didn't work great for me because I used an .img and unetbootin uses .isos only | 08:10 |
| Berzerker | kyle_, lol... | 08:10 |

| SchighSchagh | Saraphim: okay, that definitely narrows down the possible causes by confirming it's not anything with any of the hardware | 08:11 |
| vaio | how do i set up my extrnal monitor on my laptop? | 08:11 |
| SchighSchagh | Saraphim: has it always been like this on ubuntu? | 08:12 |
| Saraphim | SchighSchagh: Yes, I am thinking driver issue. I know that it is sometimes working but only breaks on Ubuntu startup since I can start the computer over WOL, but still have no net in Ubuntu. | 08:12 |
| Saraphim | SchighSchagh: Yes. | 08:12 |
| Mrokii | hello. I am looking for a dvc-c-card for Ubuntu (one that is available in Germany, preferably). At least I *think* I need a dvb-c-card... | 08:13 |
| SchighSchagh | Saraphim: hmm. this isn't a fix, but might be a good enough workaround: add a script to your startup sequence that checks if ethernet started up correctly (by trying to ping something), and run ethtool -t until ping succeeds | 08:14 |
| ^Phantom^ | ^ someone please tell me why the media player is acting like there's no sound card installed when it is clear that there is one there, and it is turned all the way up? Or at least tell me how to pinpoint the problem, or just restart the sound? | 08:14 |
| Saraphim | SchighSchagh: Yeah, I guess I will have to do that. Should be sufficient to place it in /etc/networks/if-up.d? | 08:14 |
| SchighSchagh | Saraphim: I should think so, yes | 08:15 |
| BellinXFelon | can anyone help me i cannot burn a dvd in kubuntu 9.04 | 08:15 |
| Saraphim | SchighSchagh: Thanks for your help. :) | 08:15 |

| user_ | when i browse the network shortcuts are created but cant delete, so how to delete them | 08:17 |

| Kartagis | even though I have bound Lock Screen to F12, it doesn't work. how could that happen? | 08:19 |

I added A's id_rsa.pub to B's authorized_host's, but despite this, I am asked for a password. Note that B is a machine behind a firewall, so in fact the firewall is port forwarding to enable access to B. | 08:24 |

| loquitus | lstarnes: no. I did not provide a passphrase | 08:26 |

| geirha | loquitus: Then it's working :) | 08:42 |
| lstarnes | randy2009: sudo netstat -lp | 08:42 |
| loquitus | geirha: the point of this is non-interactive connection right? it is still asking me something. | 08:43 |
| randy2009 | i can't see the port numbers | 08:43 |
| randy2009 | if i do that | 08:43 |
| slacker_nl | BellinXFelon: maybe the fact that you can't burn dvd's has nothing to do with the burning software.. but more with your hardware (eg not a dvd burner..) | 08:43 |
| geirha | loquitus: You still need to provide the passphrase, but you can store it in a key agent | 08:44 |
| randy2009 | i only see [::]:www and [::]:ssh etc | 08:44 |
| randy2009 | not real portnumbers | 08:44 |
| loquitus | geirha: I don't have a passphrase, as in I did not provide one when I generated the key | 08:44 |
| geirha | loquitus: It's also possible to have a blank passphrase on the key | 08:44 |
| slacker_nl | geirha: can be done real easy putting a key on a remote server: ssh-copy-id $server | 08:44 |
| loquitus | geirha: so why is it asking for one then | 08:45 |
| BellinXFelon | slacker_nl : it is a dvd burner, it worked in 8.04 and still burns cds in 9.04, just not dvds for some reason | 08:45 |
| lstarnes | randy2009: those are the names of the services associated with those ports in /etc/services | 08:45 |

| Berzerker | kamarul, when you reinstalled vista, it rewrote the master boot record | 10:16 |

| indus | kamarul: give me the output of sudo fdisk -l | 10:16 |
| kamarul | indus: but then, after i installed 9.04. grub loaded, it showns theres 8.04 | 10:16 |

| ideamonk_ | hey guys, my friend has accidentaly deleted all his partitions, is there a way he can recover them ??? there is one ntfs partition and one ext4 to be recovered... is there any live distro that can help recover it ??? | 10:23 |
| CQ | kamarul: do a sudo fdisk -l to list all partitions. Print that list. Then do a 'df' to see what's currently used and mounted. then go to /mnt and make a directory old_os. then mount the other partitions that you don't know about there and see what's on them. | 10:23 |
| kamarul | indus: let say i deleted the 8.04, will it my boot ? | 10:23 |
| Berzerker | kamarul, yes. | 10:24 |
| erUSUL | [504]: ie6 is *old* *crap* it neeeds a plugin | 10:24 |
| alexidoia | binB4SH: then ask the guy from the package in question | 10:24 |
| indus | CQ: or you can just manually go into each partition's /boot and check whats version | 10:24 |
| erUSUL | ideamonk_: testdisk or gpart instalable on the ubuntu livecd can be used to recover partitions | 10:24 |
| kamarul | indus: for your info, it use the grub base on 8.04 | 10:24 |

| === Guest82641 is now known as rodimus | ||
| joaopinto | afed, for example, if you use virtualbox and the modules fail to load with the newer kerenel, and do not ask for more examples, it's a general recommendation, you really should not do it unless you are experienced with building kernerls | 10:39 |
| DaZ- | bs | 10:39 |
| afed | rebuild the modules for virtualbox duh | 10:39 |
| Ali_nz | is there any secret to deleting unused partition and slack space on a XP HDD to make it one big partition? I tried it but then could not boot, computer was left asking for boot media post bios | 10:40 |
| Ali_nz | using gparted | 10:40 |
| joaopinto | afed, you are assuming the modules will rebuild with the newer kernel, duh | 10:40 |
| bullgard4 | erUSUL: Firstly, I do not use Firefox 3.5. Secondly, export and import functions do not function in my Firefox 3.0.13 for unknown reasons. I am going to find outwhat is the reason for this bug. | 10:40 |
| afed | any package that requires kernel modules ought to come with scripts for doing that | 10:40 |

| DaZ- | :f | 10:40 |
| kaddi | Swithing to 6.30 is currently the only way to get ubuntu running close to smoothely on intel hardware | 10:40 |
| afed | that's really a bug in debian/ubuntu | 10:40 |
| afed | vmware, for example, builds modules whenever you install it for the kernel you are running | 10:41 |
| DaZ- | using .30 isn't problem | 10:41 |
| zhxk | how to see package depends? | 10:41 |
| joaopinto | afed, please do not be ignorant, it is not about the tools, some modules break to build because they use specific structures or functions that are changed accross kernel versions | 10:41 |
| mwt116 | ciao a tutti | 10:41 |

| TheSilentWarrior | unicorn_, i can change view ports and alt tab just fine =) | 11:48 |
| indus | kamarul: its virtual memory kinda | 11:48 |
| hvnqke_work | kamarul, swap space is used to store temporary stuff that would usually be stored in your RAM, when you're out of RAM. | 11:48 |
| ntn | unicorn_: ...why not just install the deb? | 11:48 |
| fat_rat | !swap | 11:48 |
| ubottu | swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 11:48 |
| indus | unicorn_: iam your directions :) | 11:48 |
| kamarul | indus: should i delete it since i deleted the sda5? | 11:48 |

| Zuka | the splash opens | 11:49 |
| Zuka | then thats it | 11:49 |

| hvnqke_work | Zuka, write netbeans | 11:50 |
| unicorn_ | Will I have to remove any old installs of flash? | 11:50 |
| jerroome | jhesketh_ : I don't have more hints, good luck !! | 11:50 |
| Zuka | i know how to get to the terminal | 11:50 |
| kamarul | indus: shall i quit it now? | 11:50 |
| indus | kamarul: yeah iam a genius | 11:50 |
| jhesketh_ | jerroome: no worries. thanks for your help! | 11:50 |
| indus | kamarul: yeah quit | 11:50 |
| hvnqke_work | Zuka, and then it will write stuff in the window. copy and paste that to pastebin.com and give us the link | 11:50 |

| indus | Horusofoz: aaiyaah guides, | 11:55 |
| PointMan | if I want to get security updates for my 8.04 lts server edition i just do apt-get update ? Im concerned about the latest kernel attacks | 11:55 |
| indus | Horusofoz: no guides as of now | 11:55 |
| putkin | how can i join this server over xchat? irc.de.euirc.net:6667. | 11:55 |
| indus | Horusofoz: there is nothing special about what you wantto do, no need to worry its common | 11:55 |
| ntn | Horusofoz: it is, just point it to the external hard drive when you install it, or just use something like wubi if you want to dual boot easily without messing around with it | 11:56 |
| lstarnes | putkin: /newserver irc.de.euirc.net 6667 | 11:56 |

| fredl | Ariman - good luck finding help here. | 12:03 |
| ziro` | so, defining system wide environment variables? how | 12:04 |
| Ariman | why? - ? it's not the right place? | 12:04 |
| oldude67 | yes its the right place | 12:04 |
| oldude67 | fredl, are you using pulseaudio? | 12:05 |
| fredl | oldude67 - yes I am. | 12:05 |
| === remus is now known as prodigel | ||
| Ariman | so i try to upgrade from CD - sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade - didnt work - update-manager not installed | 12:05 |
| oldude67 | fredl, have you tried using alsa instead? | 12:06 |
| oldude67 | pulseaudio is being really weird right now for a lot of people. | 12:06 |
| Horusofoz | indus: Theoretically would it be possible to "partition" the 150 GB external drive into 2 75 partitions, then install Ubuntu on one and Kubuntu on the other? And have it set so when the pc is booted with the drive plugged in I get the dual boot option? | 12:06 |
| oldude67 | Ariman, have you done dist-upgrade? | 12:07 |
| Slart | !upgrade | Ariman | 12:07 |
| ubottu | Ariman: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 12:07 |
| fredl | oldude67, yes, I was under the impression that I *was* using Alsa but after you asked I checked if pulseaudio is running and it is. | 12:07 |
| hareldvd | after installing flash player v 10.0.32.18 from: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/thankyou/?installer=Flash_Player_10_for_Linux_(.deb) in FF add ons plugin the version stamp is still 9.0.r999. How can I check if FF uses the right version? | 12:07 |
| Slart | fredl: just to clarify... pulseaudio uses alsa.. they are not alternatives.. pulseaudio is a layer on top of alsa | 12:08 |
| fredl | Slart, ah okay. Was responding to oldude67's question... | 12:08 |
| ntn | hareldvd: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ | 12:08 |
| Ariman | didn't work because 7.10 onlyne ( apt-get ) is down | 12:08 |
| ziro` | *sigh* | 12:09 |
| Slart | hareldvd: uninstall the flash player version from the repos.. you might have to delete the actual plugin manually too | 12:09 |
| Ariman | so - no software support online | 12:09 |

| fredl | Slart, oldude67 - either way, I merely get a crackling sound from my laptop speaker while the hardware is okay. Where do I begin to troubleshoot that? | 12:10 |

| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 12:10 |
| ntn | hareldvd: apt-get remove then delete it from the .mozilla folder and so on | 12:10 |
| Slart | Ariman: support ended in april.. that's why the repos are removed.. you need to change to the archived repositories.. there's nothing about that in the upgrade link? | 12:10 |

When i right click it there is no option to open with other program. When i goto /var/www/ and right click on insert.php it says open with firefox. So i pressume thats all correct. Now when I log in with another user it all works fine??? whats happening here and how can i fi | 12:11 |
| garymc | x it? | 12:11 |
| Slart | fredl: hmm.. I would start by searching the ubuntu forums for your laptops manufacturer/model.. see if anyone else has asked the same question.. | 12:11 |
| hareldvd | ntn, Yea, it's 9.0.r999 not the one i just installed. | 12:11 |
| Slart | Ariman: I think the repository you need to use is called old-releases.ubuntu.com .. use that to run a upgrade.. then you can update to the next version | 12:12 |

| Ariman | I'll try now whit thsi old-releases.ubuntu.com | 12:12 |

| oldude67 | Slart, agree | 12:14 |
| Slart | oldude67: especially with the ICH cards.. there seems to be a gazillion different models.. each needs slightly different settings to work in the driver.. | 12:14 |

| NantoRokuseiken | Dr_Willis: well i dont have time to learn latex. :( either i ll find a program to do my job or switch to windoze for the moment and use ms office | 12:17 |
| Slart | axion: but if something is playing a sound using alsa I don't think there is a lot you can do about it in pulseaudio | 12:17 |
| axion | Slart, yeah.. but the problem is to connect hw:1 to hw:0 | 12:17 |
| Dr_Willis | NantoRokuseiken: check the package manager. Theres likely to be some tool for that. | 12:18 |
| axion | hw:1 only has inputs | 12:18 |

| Abi_neh | hy | 12:46 |
| kaddi | unicorn_ many (but not all) flash issues appear when more than one flash utility is installed. Make sure you uninstall all Flash related packages: flashplugin-nonfree, swfdec-mozilla, swfdec-gnome, mozilla-plugin-gnash, gnash. with sudo apt-get remove --purge <packagename> and then use "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer" without the "" | 12:47 |

| MOUD | hello ILMAN5 | 12:55 |
| ILMAN5 | i tried to install lampp | 12:55 |
| ILMAN5 | but i get alot of errors | 12:56 |
| ILMAN5 | y can it be simple with linux? | 12:56 |
| IdleOne | ILMAN5, it wouldn't be fun if it was. Do you have any other questions that are easy to answer? | 12:56 |
| megaimpulse | lol | 12:56 |
| erUSUL | !lamp | ILMAN5 | 12:56 |
| ubottu | ILMAN5: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 12:56 |
| ILMAN5 | i know!! | 12:57 |
| ILMAN5 | i download it | 12:57 |
| ILMAN5 | extract it | 12:57 |
| ILMAN5 | now i run it like this: | 12:57 |
| Winto | Do we have any KDE Apache GUI ? | 12:57 |
| ILMAN5 | sudo lampp start | 12:57 |
| ILMAN5 | no ! its without a gui | 12:57 |
| ILMAN5 | how can i show you the log ? | 12:59 |
| IdleOne | ILMAN5, how did you install LAMP? | 12:59 |
| erUSUL | ILMAN5: no you did it wrong. You do not dl anything you just go to Admin>Administration>Synaptic -- Menu Edit>Select packages by task --> lamp server | 12:59 |
| ILMAN5 | i just donwload it | 13:00 |
| ILMAN5 | and extract | 13:00 |
| IdleOne | ok well then you cannot run it | 13:00 |
| IdleOne | you need to install | 13:00 |
| ILMAN5 | okay how ? | 13:00 |
| erUSUL | ILMAN5: we do not support 3rd party lamp setups like xaamp | 13:00 |
| ILMAN5 | damm | 13:00 |
| fredl | Hmmmmmmm | 13:00 |
| ILMAN5 | y? | 13:00 |
| IdleOne | go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP and read | 13:00 |
| unicorn_ | kaddi, thanks. I'll keep trying. | 13:00 |
| fredl | I found a fix for the crackling soundcard.... | 13:00 |
| zaggynl | ah what fixed it? | 13:01 |
| fredl | http://blog.mintwebdesign.co.uk/ubuntu/sound-crackle-ubuntu-jaunty-jackalope-904-fixed-finally/ | 13:01 |
| kaddi | unicorn_ you can also try and run FF from commandline and see if it throws an error when it closes, that might give you a hint of what is happening | 13:01 |
| ILMAN5 | The program 'apache2' can be found in the following packages: | 13:01 |
| fredl | it's hardly a structural solution.... but *somehow* my PCM volume must have been reset to 0 instead of 100. | 13:01 |
| ILMAN5 | * apache2-mpm-event | 13:02 |

| IdleOne | ILMAN5, if you refuse to read the help we are trying to give you then you will never get LAMP installed. go to this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP and READ | 13:02 |
| kaddi | unicorn_ are you using Firefox 3.0 or 3.5? | 13:02 |
| ILMAN5 | i read this | 13:02 |
| buch | any applications are great for media, something like ie winamp or whatever | 13:02 |
| fredl | it just totally doesn't make sense to me that a crackling soundcard would be fixed by turning up the PCM volume though. | 13:03 |
| zaggynl | sure it does | 13:03 |
| IdleOne | ILMAN5, you have not | 13:03 |
| todd_chambery | I want the taskbar button to only "bring to front" | 13:03 |
| ILMAN5 | can u help me on private? | 13:03 |
| fredl | well if there's no PCM volume you shouldn't hear anything right? | 13:03 |
| unicorn_ | 3.0 | 13:03 |
| fredl | anyway, it's an acceptable workaround I guess. | 13:03 |
| kaddi | unicorn_ press alt+f2, type terminal, a terminal will open, into that terminal type firefox and hit enter. Firefox will open. Go to a website, that make firefox crash and check if some info was written into the terminal | 13:04 |

| IdleOne | !itunes | 13:06 |
| ubottu | itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee | 13:06 |

| cutout | is there a way to fix currpted tar files | 13:07 |
| kaddi | unicorn_ hehe, well that doesn't look good. :/ it's probably a bug... you might try FF-3.5 and see if it works any better. Just type sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 to install and then type firefox-3.5 to start it, visit the page and see if it works any better | 13:07 |

| megaimpulse | wep i believe | 13:09 |
| eraggo | cutout: to be honest. I don't know :( | 13:09 |
| ukev | then it is simple, just use iwconfig to configure the ssid and the wep key und after that use ifconfig to set up your ip address or use dhcp | 13:10 |

| bazhang | MOUD, I've found banshee to be more effective as an iPod transfer mechanism | 13:19 |
| mongeron | However, the do-release-upgrade tells me that no supported distributions are available. | 13:19 |

| Greenwell | Hi all.. Many times when i start up jaunty, my computer will restart suddenly after a few minutes of use. After it restarts, it will sometimes restart again while booting Ubuntu. Once in every 3-4 restarts, I get a "working bootup", like now, which doesn't restart. | 13:19 |
| eraggo | ah | 13:19 |
| MOUD | mrwes: yes, it's enabled by default | 13:20 |
| Greenwell | I've checked heat all the time and this is not a heat problem. I've checked the logs and seen nothing before the reboot. | 13:20 |
| kaddi | unicorn_ I don't think you ever had 32bit flash on the system. If your ubuntu version is 64bit they will have used 64bit packages imho.. but I don't know ubuntu studio very well | 13:20 |
| Greenwell | I am using Wubi | 13:20 |
| obhk__ | aethelrick: just as a user, chechk e-mails and write them | 13:20 |
| mongeron | do-release-upgrade does the same thing as update-manager, but it doesn't find any usable distributions. | 13:20 |
| kaddi | unicorn_ maybe try #ubuntustudio as well, they should know which flash version is installed by default on ubuntu studio | 13:21 |
| mrwes | MOUD, no idea then -- which IPOD are you using? | 13:21 |
| Greenwell | Any ideas? Thanks.. | 13:21 |

| kaie | Dr_Willis, I can't get this system into a state where I can edit commands. I need a way to pause the boot process and get me a shell, or prevent Gdm | 13:32 |
| ufuk | last time it was during running my vm with windows | 13:32 |
| bruce927 | Does anyone know a program to make a disk bootable? | 13:32 |
| tavi | yes | 13:32 |
| bazhang | tavi, did you check the appdb | 13:32 |
| Dr_Willis | kaie: theres no 'restore/rescue' boot option at teh grub menu? thats the normal way to do it. | 13:32 |
| Dr_Willis | kaie: or boot a live cd.. and access the installed os that way | 13:32 |
| tavi | but is a game for linux that doesn't work too | 13:32 |
| tavi | bazhang: ? | 13:32 |
| MOUD | How can I listen to online radio (via browser and via media player) ? | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | tavi: you did install the proper 3d drivers for your video card? | 13:33 |
| tavi | yes | 13:33 |
| tavi | they are | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | MOUD: i tend to use streamtuner or tunapie for that. | 13:33 |
| bruce927 | also,, does anyone know an app for mounting isos? | 13:33 |
| kaie | Dr_Willis, the system I refer to is a live system. A live usb starter with casper-rw area. I use it as a portable OS | 13:33 |
| bazhang | !appdb | tavi check here | 13:33 |
| ubottu | tavi check here: 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 | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | !iso | bruce927 | 13:33 |
| ubottu | bruce927: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 13:33 |
| tavi | from sistem administration hardware drivers | 13:33 |
| tavi | bazhang: is counter strike source | 13:33 |
| MOUD | Dr_Willis: is there a difference between the two? | 13:33 |
| tavi | that surely works | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | kaie: ahh. i forget how you mount a casper-rw area.. if it has a grub menu, you can edit the boot lines and append a 'single' to the end of the kernel= entry and that 'should' boot to the cli. in single user mode I think | 13:34 |
| bruce927 | Cheers Dr_Willis | 13:34 |

| TuxMan1 | hii all | 13:39 |

| IdleOne | pozic, choices | 13:40 |
| kismet | i use also compize bazhang, | 13:40 |
| bazhang | kismet, so when using vbox only then; what version of virtualbox and what version of jaunty; does this happen with compiz off as well? could be a conflict | 13:40 |
| pozic | IdleOne: choice is bad when two things are exactly the same. It might be that the licenses are different, but in that case, just package up the most liberal one. | 13:40 |
| TuxMan1 | is there any tool to get a pixel's color of an image??? | 13:40 |
| pozic | TuxMan1: you mean in a script? | 13:41 |
| TuxMan1 | a script or some command like tool | 13:41 |
| bazhang | a1234567890, yes, do you have a support question | 13:41 |
| a1234567890 | anyone needs the driver code of ubuntu | 13:41 |
| IdleOne | pozic, they may have slight differences, I couldn't really say but if rlwrap is working fine for you then stick with it | 13:41 |
| pozic | TuxMan1: not that I know of, but if you write a little C with any random image library, you can. | 13:41 |
| kismet | it used to appear if i pres alt+tab if my compize was activated.. and i changed it from 'static application switcher' to 'application switcher' | 13:41 |
| bazhang | a1234567890, the driver code? what do you mean | 13:41 |

| ubottu | Kingsy101: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 13:54 |

| bullgard | [Ubuntu 9.04] My Pidgin appears after each reboot anew although I exited it before. What should I do so that it does not open automatically at every reboot? | 14:13 |
| Pici | Kingsy101: Does /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf exist? | 14:13 |
| ziroday | mizipzor: err mono isn't required for .net applications in wine. You need to install .net in wine :) | 14:13 |
| bazhang | shahzad, repost every twenty minutes or so, add many more details to your question | 14:13 |
| Kingsy101 | 1 sec | 14:13 |
| mizipzor | ziroday: maybe they missunderstodd my question then :p i take there is no package for .net i just download the regular windows file? | 14:14 |
| Kingsy101 | Pici - it doesnt look like it, I did a gedit command and the file was blank | 14:14 |
| Kingsy101 | I did sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin and it seemed to install | 14:14 |
| ziroday | mizipzor: correct, the folks in #winehq can direct you on the exact procedure better. | 14:14 |
| hafiz | guys, there;s a sound like an error every time i want to reboot or shutdown. does this happen to you as well? ubuntu 9.04 | 14:15 |
| ziroday | hafiz: how are you rebooting? | 14:15 |
| mike3 | For the life of me I can't get "talk" to work! It has been working for months and all of a sudden took a shit. Can somebody please help? | 14:15 |
| mizipzor | ziroday: actually, i was just told to "install mono"... has been silent ever since | 14:15 |
| bazhang | mike3, please watch the language | 14:15 |

| b3rz3rk3r | shahzad, how big is your swap partition? | 14:15 |
| vivxone | how to remove the other useless packages which are installed with some applications | 14:15 |
| ziroday | noise: is PCM volume raised as well? | 14:15 |
| hafiz | ziroday: its just the same. either you reboot from terminal or gui | 14:16 |
| Pici | Kingsy101: Okay, does /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf exist? | 14:16 |
| shahzad | b3rz3rk3z: 2 gb | 14:16 |
| noise | PCM ? | 14:16 |
| ziroday | hafiz: it sounds like the pc speaker is going off, which is the correct behaviour I believe. | 14:16 |
| noise | yes its in max. | 14:16 |
| b3rz3rk3r | shahzad, and you have 2GB of RAM installed too ? | 14:16 |
| Kingsy101 | Pici - yes | 14:16 |
| shahzad | b3rz3rk3z: yes | 14:16 |
| hafiz | ziroday: but it seems more to error. its like a beep | 14:17 |
| noise | ? | 14:17 |
| ziroday | hafiz: that is correct, if you don't want to ever hear the pc speaker you can blacklist the module | 14:17 |
| b3rz3rk3r | shahzad, you may want to try increasing your swap size by a little bit. Ubuntu forums comments seem to suggest that would help | 14:17 |
| bazhang | TheShahFactor, hi | 14:17 |
| Pici | Kingsy101: okay do the following then: sudo ln -s /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/phpmyadmin ; sudo a2ensite phpmyadmin ; sudo invoke-rc.d apache2 restart | 14:18 |
| shahzad | b3rz3rk3z: how could i extend it by taking space from other ext4 partition i had | 14:18 |
| TheShahFactor | bazhang Howdy! | 14:18 |
| hafiz | ziroday: how am i going to blacklsit the module? | 14:18 |
| ziroday | hafiz: add the line "blacklist pcspkr" to your /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 14:19 |
| Kingsy101 | Pici - when restart apache does this warning matter | 14:19 |
| Kingsy101 | apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName ... waiting apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName | 14:19 |

| kannan02 | how to access pendrive in my virtual xp( i installed ubuntu as host) | 14:20 |
| ltcabral | hey im using ubuntu but i need to test some stuff in suse, should i use a virtual machine or just install it too? | 14:20 |
| rob__ | so after removing compiz and compiz-core as per a forum suggestion, my i845G now works fine with the intel driver | 14:20 |
| shahzad | b3rz3rk3r: i got gparted in my ubuntu | 14:20 |
| hafiz | ziroday: wont it effect my sounds? | 14:20 |
| Kingsy101 | Pici - ok, apache still works (I can see the IT WORKS msg) but localhost/phpmyadmin comes up with a you have chosen to open a phtml file from http://localhost again | 14:21 |
| ziroday | hafiz: no, only your pc speaker | 14:21 |
| Dr_Willis | kannan02: you need to use the vbirutalbox from the virtualbox homepage to have 'usb' support for that. | 14:21 |
| hafiz | ziroday: im using laptop btw | 14:21 |
| ziroday | ltcabral: that's really your choice. Each have there advantages | 14:21 |
| b3rz3rk3r | shahzad, right, but you wont be able to edit your current partition because it is mounted. so you need the live cd to do so | 14:21 |
| ltcabral | ziroday: what are? | 14:21 |
| hafiz | ls | 14:21 |
| kannan02 | virtual box home page means?? | 14:22 |
| benchik | no one knows about the backport? | 14:22 |
| bazhang | kannan02, virtualbox.org | 14:22 |
| ziroday | ltcabral: vms are easier to deploy and remove, and can be run at the same time as the host system. Full installs run faster, and have more flexibility. | 14:22 |
| Dr_Willis | !virtualbox | kannan02 | 14:22 |
| ubottu | kannan02: 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 | 14:22 |
| Dr_Willis | kannan02: non free edition has that and other features | 14:22 |

| hafiz | ziroday: how about if im using laptop. will it take effect/ | 14:23 |
| kannan02 | thank u for the replies;) | 14:23 |
| Kingsy101 | Pici - any ideas ? | 14:23 |
| ziroday | hafiz: it will just remove the pc speaker sounds | 14:23 |
| b3rz3rk3r | shahzad, no, you will need to unmount your ext4 and resize, to get space for your swap first, then give more swap space. so you need the livecd. its a small dl | 14:23 |
| hafiz | ok | 14:23 |
| ziroday | Jangal: what does running "nautilus" in the terminal output? | 14:24 |

| oguncak | hi friends. how can i assign the microsoft button on my keyboard as the applications starter (as the ubuntu start menu key)??? | 15:16 |
| IdleOne | PerryArmstrong, copy and paste aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages ( in Terminal ) then move the text file it creates to your friends computer | 15:16 |
| Adremelech|Lapto | Kingsy101, i doubt it has anything to do with apache and phpmyadmin | 15:16 |
| Kingsy101 | but its just kicking me out to ths command line prompt | 15:16 |
| Kingsy101 | yea I know I was just saying that wwas the last thing I did before I re-started | 15:17 |
| Micheil | Kingsy101: I'm possibly wrong, but usually anything to do with /dev/ is one of the devices attached to your computer | 15:17 |

| Guest26759 | for ubuntu 9.04 with kernel 2.6.28-14-generic, how can I get the ehci_hcd module so that I can use modprobe ehci_hcd in order to be able to see my usb hdd ("320GB my passport") ? | 15:17 |
| Micheil | pottedmeat: I think openoffice, but I've not really used staroffice | 15:18 |
| oguncak | yes allright.. thanks.. but cant i change that the way i want it to be? | 15:18 |
| PerryArmstrong | IdleOne; okk...i didnt mean this one...i want to transfer some packages like vlc etc...so how do i do that | 15:18 |
| enzotib | uff | 15:18 |
| mazda01 | Guest26759, that module should just load by default, are you saying that it's not loaded? | 15:18 |
| bullgard | oguncak: Yes, you can. But I do not know, how (at this moment). | 15:19 |
| IdleOne | PerryArmstrong, you can download packages from packages.ubuntu.com | 15:19 |
| onexused | Currently, the volume, mute keys on my laptop control the PCM channel, no matter what I set gnome volume control's channel to. How can I change which one the volume and mute keys affect? | 15:19 |
| oguncak | thanks bullgard. | 15:19 |
| KittyBoots | How do I find out the dpi of my resolution? | 15:20 |
| PerryArmstrong | IdleOne; the fact is my friend doesn't have internet connection...i have the packages in my system...but i dont know at which location are the packages...that i can copy in my removable drive and install in his system | 15:20 |
| mazda01 | onexused, are you using gnome alsa mixer? | 15:20 |
| Guest26759 | mazda01: if I do lsmod | grep ehci_hcd, nothing is shown, so I would say it is not loaded | 15:20 |
| alankila | KittyBoots: measure the inner area with a ruler and divide the horizontal resolution by that value? | 15:21 |
| alankila | EDID values are supposed to contain the physical dimensions, so maybe /var/log/Xorg.0.log says something about this | 15:21 |
| onexused | mazda01: It appears so. | 15:21 |
| mazda01 | onexused, actually, it's under system, preferences, sound, then just click multiple things like PCM, Master by holding the control key, that will then make those things change when you use the mute and volume buttons i believe | 15:22 |
| IdleOne | PerryArmstrong, in /var/cache/apt/archive | 15:22 |
| Horusofoz | Can some please help. I installed Ubuntu to an portable external hard drive. I thought it would be a portable OS however when I removed the drive and rebooted the pc there was a GRUB 21 error and XP would not load. Can some please help:-( | 15:22 |
| onexused | mazda01: That solved my problem. Thank you very much. | 15:23 |
| mazda01 | Guest26759, yeah, i would say it's not loaded then. you can add it to /etc/modules.conf if ubuntu uses that still | 15:23 |
| mazda01 | onexused, no problem, just pay it forward | 15:23 |
| Pehrzwago | onko tää nyt se irkki? | 15:24 |

| PerryArmstrong | IdleOne; i checked it...but i dont seem to find the vlc package though vlc is installed in my system | 15:24 |

| Kingsy101 | thanks that post worked great ;) | 15:25 |
| IdleOne | PerryArmstrong, then go to packages.ubuntu.com and download it | 15:25 |

| PerryArmstrong | IdleOne; can you tell me why isn't there in my system | 15:25 |
| IdleOne | PerryArmstrong, because you dont need it once it is installed | 15:25 |
| vinaygeorgian | hi | 15:25 |
| Guest26759 | mazda01: just simply add a line with ehci_hcd ? | 15:26 |
| PerryArmstrong | IdleOne; so you mean it gets deleted automatically once it is installed | 15:26 |
| IdleOne | PerryArmstrong, no but you probably ran the computer janitor or did a apt-get autoremove and it deleted the package | 15:27 |
| PerryArmstrong | IdleOne; so once i remove it from my repositore and try to reinstall it..then it has to download again..which generally doesn't happen | 15:27 |

| Micheil | or learn Strophe / JavaScript | 15:50 |
| id10t | Micheil, yup, at least i think so - the kiosk user is locked down, no panels, etc. so I made the change on a un-restriced account and copied the resulting .gconf directories/files to the kiosk user (and then fixed permissions) | 15:50 |

There's no way that i can talk him through configuring port forwarding on his router. Are there any clever ways i can get remote access to his compute | 15:50 |

| SirFunk | i think tryign to get him to type in the ssh command is the best bet | 15:55 |
| Dr_Willis | SirFunk: vncing over the wild internet is not secure. | 15:56 |
| Dr_Willis | SirFunk: ssh tunnles are good for that. :) but it will be slow/sluggish | 15:56 |
| SirFunk | Dr_Willis: right, the problem was his firewall is nolonger port forwarding right, so i can't ssh in | 15:56 |
| SirFunk | but i think ssh reverse portforwarding will be the right answer | 15:57 |
| Dr_Willis | SirFunk: he can ssh tunnle out to yours I think was suggested... | 15:57 |
| Dr_Willis | SirFunk: or have him enable port forwarding.. I guess... | 15:57 |

| Micheil | GPL: then just go to their website, download it, and extract it into /var/www/ or whatever your webroot is | 16:05 |
| GPL | oh good Michell : only extraction will do ?? | 16:05 |
| Micheil | GPL: then you need to edit the config file (as it should tell you in the README inside the package) | 16:05 |
| mazda01 | GPL, i used dbconfig-common. there's an issue where the phpmyadmin symlink doesn't get created though I think and you'll have to create it in /var/www/. just install phpmyadmin and then see if you can access it through web browser, if not then do sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/phpmyadmin | 16:05 |
| Guest26759 | mazda01, yes, I've both 1.1 and 2.0 usb, but did not try different usb hubs | 16:06 |
| Micheil | GPL: phpmyadmin is a php webapplication | 16:06 |
| GPL | Michel: yeah. | 16:06 |
| mazda01 | Guest26759, i would try a different hub, maybe it only works on 2.0 or 1.1. you may get lucky. otherwise it appears to be a serious bug for people, maybe upgrading the kernel will help? | 16:06 |
| Guest26759 | mazda01, the lsusb shows http://paste.ubuntu.com/251343/ | 16:07 |
| danbhfive | mazda01: that's not an issue, that is a feature I believe. It comes disabled by default. I'm pretty sure to enable: sudo a2ensite phpmyadmin | 16:07 |
| mazda01 | Guest26759, oh, what do you mean a different hub? you've tried both 1.1 and 2.0 that should mean you tried both hubs i would think. | 16:08 |
| cordor | Micheil: no, i didn't find anything about pidign | 16:08 |
| Micheil | cordor: okay | 16:08 |
| dpratt71 | is this a good forum for a question about configuring a virtual monitor under ubuntu? | 16:08 |
| Micheil | try checking your session saved | 16:08 |
| Micheil | dpratt71: good luck | 16:08 |
| dpratt71 | @Micheil: thanks :) | 16:09 |
| mazda01 | danbhfive, i don't know about sudo a2ensite phpmyadmin, i just created the symlink and I was good to go. | 16:09 |
| Guest26759 | mazda01, no, sorry...I meant different USB slots or ports or... | 16:09 |
| danbhfive | mazda01: yeah, I know that will work. But it doesn't use the supplied apache.conf file. Anyway, it was just FYI | 16:09 |
| cordor | Micheil: it complains about i don't have /var/log/gdm, would it be the reason why pidign error message doesn't show up? | 16:10 |
| Micheil | shouldn't be | 16:10 |
| mazda01 | danbhfive, you're saying that if I create a symlink it doesn't use which apache.conf file? | 16:10 |
| KittyBoots | what are the commands I will need to display all running processes and kill them | 16:11 |
| dpratt71 | I don't think it's too complicated for a non-noob, but I'm ignorant of most things ubuntu/linux and the xrandr examples I've seen look like voodoo | 16:11 |
| mazda01 | KittyBoots, ps aux shows all running processes. im sure there's a better way. issue man ps to find out different syntax. you can kill a process by issuing sudo kill PIDHERE | 16:12 |
| mazda01 | dpratt71, so what is your question? | 16:12 |

| majnoon | is there a way i can fix the libGLcore thing from a livve CD ?? | 16:13 |
| mazda01 | majnoon, what's wrong with it? | 16:13 |
| dpratt71 | well...the VM monitor works, but the res is stuck @ 800x600 | 16:13 |
| dpratt71 | I want to go to 1024x768 at least | 16:14 |
| majnoon | i borked libGLcore basically | 16:14 |
| dpratt71 | examples of how to do that ref xorg.conf...I get the impression that's not relevant for Ubuntu recent | 16:14 |
| mazda01 | dpratt71, so what don't u understand about xandr? | 16:14 |
| majnoon | can't run X | 16:14 |
| danbhfive | mazda01: hmmm, well, e2ensite won't work, but the file is /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf | 16:14 |
| majnoon | gdm works ok but no run gnome | 16:15 |
| mazda01 | majnoon, and you're missing libGLcore? you should be able to copy that file from the livecd and put it on your mounted system. i would think anyway. | 16:15 |
| majnoon | nm it just gnome | 16:15 |
| dpratt71 | I typically see xrandr command lines that include a bunch of numbers...I don't know what the numbers represent nor how to know what the values should be for a VM monitor | 16:16 |
| mazda01 | danbhfive, i didn't need to mess with /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf. what do you need to do in there? | 16:16 |
| dpratt71 | is there a noob-friendly xrandr tut? | 16:16 |
| bazhang | http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 dpratt71 ? | 16:17 |
| danbhfive | mazda01: well, you be able to add a symlink to that file in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled and it will enable the website. | 16:18 |
| dpratt71 | also, I'm just curious: the xorg.conf stuff seemed a lot more straightforward...why did they go away from it? | 16:18 |

| xlq | His page contained "correct" used in an adverb context :\ | 16:45 |
| Gransus_ | I noticed idle | 16:45 |
| Kurlon | So, no spaces in your name, some punctuation isn't allowed, and there is a length limit | 16:46 |
| xlq | /me doesn't quite know why people have difficulty with '/' as the first character of their message | 16:46 |
| mazda01 | lstarnes, not sure which one, i figured it out by right clicking on the channel name, then clicked the Hide Join/Part messages | 16:46 |
| mazda01 | bazhang, thank you | 16:46 |
| bazhang | mazda01, you are welcome :) | 16:47 |
| xlq | xchat's nick-colouring is really useful. Anyway, drifting back on topic...:) | 16:47 |
| marionbarry | Has anyone ever heard of chinanet and/or Telnet?....if so who are they?...and what do they do? | 16:47 |
| xlq | marionbarry: well telnet is a remote terminal protocol... | 16:48 |
| Halitech | marionbarry, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telnet | 16:48 |
| marionbarry | xlq<<what is a remote terminal protocol? | 16:48 |
| Kurlon | Ok, bbl, time to stuff my face while the soekris churns | 16:49 |
| xlq | marionbarry: telnet has been mostly superseded by ssh | 16:49 |
| lstarnes | marionbarry: a protocol used for interacting with a terminal or command line on another computer | 16:49 |
| Halitech | marionbarry, its a way of remotely controlling a computer on the command line | 16:49 |
| lyhana8 | hi, my touchpad doesn't work on jaunty while it was on hardy | 16:49 |
| maco | marionbarry: if youre in alabama, why use the Mayor For Life's name? | 16:49 |
| mazda01_ | how do i switch between channels in irssi, anyone please help? | 16:49 |
| maco | mazda01_: alt+ buffer # | 16:50 |
| Gransus_ | So anyone want to help me again? | 16:50 |
| maco | mazda01_: or esc (let go) # | 16:50 |
| lyhana8 | my xorg.conf is empty where should I look for conf about my touchpad ? | 16:50 |
| maco | mazda01_: or /win 23 (or whatever number) | 16:50 |
| lstarnes | mazda01: or /window number | 16:50 |
| marionbarry | maco<<<not familiar with that term...what do you mean by that? | 16:50 |
| lstarnes | mazda01: I have /w aliased to equal /window | 16:50 |
| maco | marionbarry: Mayor For Life is the nickname in DC for Marion Barry | 16:50 |
| Gransus_ | Who wants to help me set up a dual-boot with ubuntu on this machine? | 16:50 |
| xlq | Gransus_: just ask | 16:50 |
| Gransus_ | cuz i have NO idea where to start | 16:51 |
| bazhang | Gransus_, install windows first | 16:51 |
| marionbarry | maco<<<OK...lol | 16:51 |
| Gransus_ | I have windows installed | 16:51 |
| mazda01_ | maco: i am pushing alt1 but that's not switching. sorry i don't understand | 16:51 |
| maco | Gransus_: boot from the ubuntu cd | 16:51 |
| Halitech | Gransus_, there's 2 ways of doing it http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/wubi | 16:51 |
| xlq | Gransus_: have you got partition(s) ready for Ubuntu? | 16:51 |
| Gransus_ | No, i dont know how to | 16:51 |
| maco | mazda01_: ok then try hitting escape, letting go, and hitting a number | 16:51 |
| mazda01_ | maco: nevermind, i got it now. thanks | 16:51 |
| marionbarry | Maco<<<How did you know i'm in Alabama? | 16:51 |
| maco | marionbarry: because you joined and it said your isp was in alabama... | 16:51 |
| mazda01_ | maco: i had to push, alt and the plus symbol and then a number. | 16:52 |
| Halitech | maco, maybe they are using a proxy ;) | 16:52 |
| maco | Gransus_: just boot from the ubuntu cd and click the install thing. youll get to a screen where it offers to dual boot and you drag the little handle to decide how much of your hard drive is windows and how much is ubuntu. that it | 16:52 |
| maco | mazda01_: thats unusual... but ok... | 16:52 |
| Gransus_ | but i dont want to lose anything i have on windows atm | 16:52 |
| xlq | maco: really? Nice! | 16:53 |
| maco | Gransus_: i think htat question is like the 4th qustion it asks | 16:53 |
| Gransus_ | dont i need to make a new partition first? | 16:53 |
| mazda01_ | maco: well you said alt+buffer number. didn't you mean the alt and the plus symbol when you said that? | 16:53 |
| maco | Gransus_: itll do it for you | 16:53 |
| bazhang | Gransus_, the installer cd will handle it | 16:53 |
| quidnunc | Anybody know how I can add a filter to logcheck? Does logcheck parse all the files in ignore.d.server? | 16:53 |
| xlq | Gransus_: you shouldn't lose anything, but it's still probably best to make backups of your most important files. | 16:53 |
| hwilde | I have multiple SSIDs in the network manager, how do I set the default one to use on boot? | 16:53 |
| Flimflam | Hello | 16:53 |
| ]Spectre[ | Hi,it seems that the output sound level of my asus x51r laptop is lower respect of the level that I listen under windows xp | 16:53 |
| maco | mazda01_: no i didnt. i meant the alt key and the buffer number | 16:53 |
| bazhang | Gransus_, back up nonetheless | 16:53 |
| hwilde | ]Spectre[, alsamixer | 16:53 |
| Halitech | Gransus_, the new Ubuntu installer will ask how you want to install, use guided and it will give you a slider to move around, give it at least 10gig or you will run out of room | 16:53 |
| maco | Gransus_: just dont try to make the windows partition smaller than the amount of data you have on it :P | 16:53 |
| ]Spectre[ | hwilde,what i need to do ? run it from the console ? | 16:54 |
| Flimflam | that's a secret | 16:54 |
| mazda01_ | maco: is there a way to get irssi to always hide the joins, quits and what not? i did /ignore -channels #ubuntu * JOINS PARTS QUITS NICKS to get it to hide that stuff but I am guessing that's only for this session of irssi. | 16:54 |
| marionbarry | Maco, Xlq<<<I was reading on SkullBox.net that Hackers Use Telnet to hack into peoples computers | 16:54 |
| hwilde | ]Spectre[, yep run on console, see if you can turn up the maser or pcm volumes | 16:54 |
| xlq | hwilde: I don't know. I don't want to offend anyone here, but if you're having trouble with NetworkManager, you could try using wicd instead. | 16:54 |
| maco | mazda01_: dunno i never tried making mine do that. i liked to know when im talking to someone and they suddenly drop out | 16:54 |
| xlq | marionbarry: if you're not running a telnet server, then nobody can log in! | 16:54 |
| hwilde | NetworkManager just seems to go in alphabetical order, how do I set the default SSID to the one I want ? | 16:55 |
| xlq | marionbarry: I'll rephrase that. | 16:55 |
| mazda01_ | maco: good point | 16:55 |
| xlq | marionbarry: if you're not running a telnet server, then it's not a problem! | 16:55 |
| ]Spectre[ | hwilde,perfect, the master was at 100% but not the "front" tab | 16:55 |
| ]Spectre[ | thanks | 16:55 |
| maco | marionbarry: its just a way of logging in remotely. so is ssh. in either case, youd need to have a server for logging in that way installed and running | 16:55 |
| hwilde | ]Spectre[, yeah I had that with my headphones. enjoy | 16:55 |
| mazda01_ | marionbarry: you can see which ports are listening with netstat -pant | 16:55 |
| marionbarry | Well is anyone familiar with Chinanet and what they do and why they are always roaming in my computer as unknown? | 16:55 |
| xlq | marionbarry: are you Chinese? | 16:56 |
| lyhana8 | where do I configure my touchpad ? | 16:56 |
| hwilde | lyhana8, system-> preferences-> mouse | 16:56 |
| Pici | marionbarry: Are you asking why you are getting hits on your firewall from addresses in China? | 16:56 |
| Halitech | marionbarry, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChinaNet - the official chinese network | 16:56 |
| xlq | mazda01: look at /save and irssi's configuration system for more persistency | 16:56 |
| marionbarry | Well i use netstat that's built in gonome and the whois and when I do I'm always seeing unknown traffic such as Chinanet and Telnet even when I'm not surfing the web | 16:56 |
| Halitech | marionbarry, ChinaNet is China Telecom's internet service, and is one of two major commercial networks approved by the State Council to be a national Interconnecting Network in 1996, under Order No. 195, "Interim Regulation on International Interconnection of Computer Information Networks in the PRC", the other being ChinaGBN. ChinaNet is managed by the Data Communications Bureau of the Ministry for Posts and Telecommunications, and provides | 16:57 |
| Halitech | internet service in all 31 provincial capitals. | 16:57 |
| Pici | mazda01: Aditionally, irssi's help channel can be found in #irssi, they are very helpful tehre. | 16:57 |
| xlq | marionbarry: how are you connected to the Internet? | 16:57 |
| Qvintvs | most ruby-related packages in apt seem to have a 1.9 version, a 1.8 version, and a plain version (eg, irb, irb1.8, irb1.9). are the packages w/o versions in their names the latest version? | 16:57 |
| mazda01 | Pici, ok, thanks. also thanks to xlq | 16:57 |
| xlq | marionbarry: it sounds like it's just some other people's traffic on the wire, which you can safely ignore. | 16:58 |
| jigs | hello1 | 16:58 |
| prince_jammys | Qvintvs: no | 16:58 |
| lyhana8 | hwilde: I'm looking for some conf file as it's not currently active (no cat /dev/input/m* output) | 16:58 |
| maco | marionbarry: very likely theyre just systems in china that are part of a botnet. the usual. | 16:58 |
| prince_jammys | Qvintvs: the ones without version numbers are metapackages | 16:58 |
| hwilde | lyhana8, what type of laptop | 16:59 |
| xlq | marionbarry: is your computer connected directly to the telephone socket, or do you have a router? | 16:59 |
| jigs | Hello! | 16:59 |
| jigs | After setting "pppoeconf" I lost Network Manager in the taskbar. Also local area connection (auto eth0) wasn't working. So I reinstalled network manager using "sudo apt-get remove network-manager" and "sudo apt-get install network-manager". Network Manager now appear in the taskbar by unfortunately my "Auto eth0" connection is lost, and for unknown reasons I can't set-up a new one. | 16:59 |
| jigs | Could somebody possibly help me? | 16:59 |
| jigs | Thanks in advance. | 16:59 |
| FloodBot3 | jigs: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 16:59 |
| prince_jammys | Qvintvs: and they depend on debian's current ruby, which is 1.8 | 16:59 |
| marionbarry | Pici<<<Yess that's exactly what I'm saying....why am I getting hits from china,Luxemborg etc....and I'm connected to the internet via comcast highspeed cable....I have a lot in internet problems with comcast on a daily basis and each time it's Telnet or Chinanet that is interferring with my updates and downloads | 16:59 |
| jigs | pls help | 16:59 |
| lyhana8 | hwilde: acer aspire 5500, touchpad was working on hardy 2 days ago | 16:59 |
| Qvintvs | prince_jammys: ah, ok | 17:00 |
| Pici | marionbarry: Its just normal botnet stuff, as long as you're on Linux you should be fine. That traffic shouldn't be causing any issues with your normal connection. | 17:00 |
| jigs | I lost auto eth0 somebody help | 17:00 |
| mazda01 | jigs, you can edit the /etc/network/interfaces file by using a text editor. here's an example of mine: http://pastebin.com/f68405db2 | 17:00 |
| hwilde | lyhana8, did you maybe hit Fn+ F7 and disable the touchpad? | 17:01 |
| marionbarry | Well it does and I'm always getting partially encrypted connections on HTTPS sites | 17:01 |
| Halitech | marionbarry, do you have any other computers on your connection? do you have a wireless router? | 17:01 |
| lyhana8 | hwilde: already try that | 17:01 |
| mazda01 | jigs, you'll haev to use sudo as that file is owned by root. | 17:01 |
| jigs | mazda01 just sec, I will upload it | 17:01 |
| mazda01 | jigs, example if you're using gnome. gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces | 17:01 |
| hwilde | lyhana8, sry that's as far as I know | 17:01 |
| jigs | http://pastebin.com/d52885c4a | 17:01 |
| jigs | here is mine | 17:01 |
| mikebeecham | hi guys...every time Update Manager tells me there are updates, it responds shortly afterward with a number of packages that cannot be updated as they are not authorised. Is there any way I can remove these? | 17:01 |
| lyhana8 | hwilde: thanks to try :) | 17:02 |
| xlq | jigs: you could also try using wicd as an alternative to NetworkManager | 17:02 |
| mikebeecham | it offers me partial upgrade only | 17:02 |
| marionbarry | yess I have a wireless router a linksys router but I have even bigger problems when I hook up my router...it takes my computer about 20 minutes to go online when I hook up my router | 17:02 |
| jigs | xlq could I download it using apt-get install wincd? | 17:02 |
| === liam is now known as Norrit | ||
| Halitech | marionbarry, do you have any security on your router? ie. wep, wpa, wpa2? | 17:02 |
| xlq | mikebeecham: have you been installing third-party packages? | 17:02 |
| marionbarry | yess all of that | 17:03 |
| mazda01 | jigs, i dont' use network manager, i just set mine up manually. so I really can't help as i am unaware what the manual entry is for. maybe change that to dhcp? | 17:03 |
| mikebeecham | xlq...a couple., yes | 17:03 |
| mazda01 | jigs, so it would be: iface eth0 inet dhcp | 17:03 |
| mikebeecham | but the update manager does not tell me what these files relate to | 17:03 |
| marionbarry | and since i've complained I wasn't able to configure my router via web browser | 17:03 |
| marionbarry | comcast is full of privacy issues | 17:03 |
| xlq | mikebeecham: maybe commenting out the third-party repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list will help. Either that, or get the public keys for those repositories. | 17:03 |
| xlq | <marionbarry> and since i've complained I wasn't able to configure my router via web browser | 17:04 |
| Halitech | marionbarry, I would almost do a reset on the router, sounds like you may have been hacked and someones been using your connection | 17:04 |
| jigs | mazda01 I wasn't using it at all, but it was convinient because I could easilly connect to my ADSL connection | 17:04 |
| xlq | Is this your router? | 17:04 |
| jigs | now I must use pon dsl-provider | 17:04 |
| hwilde | marionbarry, do you experience the same issues when booting from the ubuntu livecd ? | 17:04 |
| jigs | also, should I add iface eth0 inet dhcp at the end>? | 17:05 |
| jigs | mazda01 I will remove network manager now | 17:05 |
| xlq | jigs, mazda01: I think jigs might not be using eth0... | 17:05 |
| mikebeecham | xlq: trying that now thanks | 17:05 |
| amigojapan | is there a way to graphically configure the virtual resolution in ubuntu like in sax2 on suse? | 17:06 |
| jigs | xlq before I was using auto eth0 | 17:06 |
| jigs | xlq would install wicd help? | 17:06 |
| xlq | jigs: so you're just using plain ethernet? | 17:06 |
| hwilde | jigs, ifconfig -a | 17:06 |
| marionbarry | well I've been using comcast since 2006 of December 1 and I bought a brand new HP desktop with dual processors and complete media center that's has all kinda usb and fire wire docking stations....and I almost returned it because of comcast...I mean when I started to run windows vista I reall had to learn how to take all the syncronization software off because someone was in sync with me and resetting all my fonts and pc | 17:07 |
| marionbarry | settings and deleting my emails | 17:07 |
| hwilde | marionbarry, do you experience the same issues when booting from the ubuntu livecd ? | 17:07 |
| jigs | hwilde here is http://pastebin.com/d44686cab | 17:07 |
| l3dx | how do I give an additional user full access to a directory? | 17:07 |
| xlq | marionbarry: what's Comcast got to do with that? | 17:07 |
| hwilde | jigs, ok then it is showing as eth0 (xlq, mazda01) | 17:07 |
| marionbarry | And yess I dont care which operating system I use especially ubuntu live or what I'm always having privacy issues | 17:08 |
| xlq | l3dx: chgrp other-user the-directory && chmod g+rwx the-directory | 17:08 |
| hwilde | marionbarry, if you have the same issues running on the LiveCD then it is a problem with your router or comcast | 17:08 |
| jigs | is this network intefaces problem? | 17:08 |
| mazda01 | jigs, so you want to use eth0 or not? i don't understand. it appears like you're using dialup | 17:08 |
| xlq | marionbarry: "someone was in sync with me and resetting all my fonts and pc" - that's definitely your problem, not Comcast's. | 17:09 |
| jigs | I am using dsl connection | 17:09 |
| sinan | \quit | 17:09 |
| jigs | but, I lost my local network | 17:09 |
| mazda01 | jigs, it is connected to your ethernet port? | 17:09 |
| xlq | marionbarry: either that, or it's Windows operating as usual :P | 17:09 |
| jigs | mazda01 yes | 17:09 |
| mazda01 | jigs, then you do need eth0. set it to dhcp then. | 17:09 |
| jigs | ok I set it now | 17:10 |
| jigs | how to restart it | 17:10 |
| marionbarry | well comcast have a lot to do with it....I mean they have me hooked up to a remote internet connection with all these nodes and Sometimes I'm even hooked up to Cox Cable when I run IP address strace...comcast do a lot of interferring with peoples downloads and spying | 17:10 |
| jigs | to see if changes get | 17:10 |
| mazda01 | jigs, unless you do want a static ip, then set it like mine but leave out the dns servers unless you use opendns | 17:10 |
| jigs | effect | 17:10 |
| FloodBot3 | jigs: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 17:10 |
| xlq | jigs: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 17:10 |
| jigs | ok, ty | 17:10 |
| xlq | jigs: I think it's that, anyway | 17:10 |
| mazda01 | jigs, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 17:10 |
| amews_aj | If I prefere win, but like to use ubuntu as well, is there anything limiting by using VirtualBox for ubuntu ? Anything I should be aware - missing features ? | 17:10 |
| archer | getting kicked back into gdm ? anyone ? it happens at random intervils | 17:10 |
| mazda01 | xlq, beat me to it. ha ha | 17:10 |
| hwilde | archer, run updates | 17:11 |
| xlq | amews_aj: certain cpu-intensive things can be considerably slower | 17:11 |
| marionbarry | when I was using my router I would see other people hook up in the neighborhood when I do and when I log off they would log off and when I started using Kubuntu on my wireless laptop I would Often see a Hidden Network | 17:11 |
| xlq | amews_aj: you also won't get full 3D graphics acceleration. | 17:11 |
| mazda01 | anyone else have firefox hang on them when trying to upload photos to facebook? | 17:11 |
| amews_aj | xlq: VirtualBox does give 3d hardware acc. | 17:12 |
| archer | hwilde, ok i dont actauly use ubuntu i use archlinux but iam sure its a gnome/gdm problem , and iam fully upgraded , trying my luck every where :P | 17:12 |
| xlq | marionbarry: well, the Internet being the Internet, your traffic goes out for all to see. There are many techniques to avoid it: encryption, tunnelling, tor ... | 17:12 |
| hwilde | archer, disable compiz and all that fancy stuff | 17:12 |
| jigs_ | seems like now my network start working. Thank you very much for the help guys | 17:12 |
| xlq | amews_aj: Does it? Didn't know that! | 17:12 |
| mazda01 | jigs, no problem. jigs. just pay it forward | 17:12 |
| hwilde | marionbarry, buy a new router, change all the settings, reinstall ubuntu with new passwords, and then drop comcast and get a different ISP. | 17:12 |
| jigs_ | mazda01 I would get tutorial to learn about network intefaces | 17:13 |
| jigs_ | and edit for myself | 17:13 |
| amews_aj | xlq: So in that case it all comes down to performance? | 17:13 |
| archer | hwilde, never thought of that thanks | 17:13 |
| xlq | jigs_: glad to hear it :) | 17:13 |
| hwilde | archer, it's probly the window manager crashing. | 17:13 |
| lino | ah | 17:13 |
| xlq | Thank you, lino, for your visit. Come again soon! :\ | 17:14 |
| marionbarry | well seem like when I find out a new way to keep my privacy they find out a new way to get in....I wish I could get a new ISP...they dont have what I prefer which is dsl in my area..as far as me changing all my passwords I do that every couple of days if not daily | 17:14 |
| amews_aj | xlq: What cpu intensive tasks would you think about? | 17:14 |
| xlq | jigs_: did you remove NetworkManager? | 17:14 |
| hwilde | marionbarry, if you don't have any servers running then no one can get in. | 17:14 |
| maco | marionbarry: just because the traffic exists doesnt mean theyve gotten in... | 17:14 |
| mazda01 | jigs, go for it. i told you the basics. it's either static or dhcp. if static you need to tell it the ip and the dhcp server, your internal ip of whatever is handing out ips | 17:14 |
| jigs_ | xlg now I would do that using sudo apt-remove network-manager | 17:15 |
| maco | marionbarry: and your isp wont change that | 17:15 |
| xlq | amews_aj: compiling, signal processing (eg. audio)...but virtualization is getting better and better. | 17:15 |
| xlq | amews_aj: in fact, my information may be a bit out of date now :) | 17:15 |
| l3dx | xlq: thanks! | 17:15 |
| amews_aj | xlq: I might do some compiling, but mostly tiny apps that I code by myself? That shouldn't be that much of an issue right? No huge apps of course. | 17:15 |
| marionbarry | what do you mean about servers?....I only have major problems when I do a update on ubuntu then that's when I start having privacy issues | 17:15 |
| zuz_ | i wish there was a way to make this videocard faster :( | 17:15 |
| maco | marionbarry: botnet bots go out after any and every IP...thats just how it is. as long as you dont have some stupid anonymous login setup and your security patches are installed, youre fine | 17:15 |
| MOUD | Hey again | 17:16 |
| hwilde | marionbarry, if you don't install anything to open up ports and listen then no one can break in. | 17:16 |
| mrphoenix | hi all | 17:16 |
| maco | hwilde: unless they own your network card at layer 2 | 17:16 |
| marionbarry | even when I use vista or ubuntu I have problems...when I use vista I keep having all my updates modified and software I download | 17:16 |
| sdf | hello anyone good with video capture cards? | 17:16 |
| xlq | amews_aj: should be fine. One problem you might experience is some keyboard shortcuts will be used by the host OS or VirtualBox itself, so sending them to the guest is a bit tricky. | 17:16 |
| xlq | amews_aj: just go and try it! | 17:16 |
| hwilde | maco, plz. | 17:16 |
| maco | hwilde: it happened to apple | 17:16 |
| amews_aj | Already tried, and seems to work fine now. However I am maybe going to use it on computer science education, so I hope I won't run into troubles that way. | 17:17 |

| xlq | MK13: your keyboard layout is set to an 'international' layout variant. You can change the keyboard settings in Settings -> Administration -> Keyboard | 17:19 |
| mazda01 | marionbarry, can you even use sudo? | 17:19 |
| xlq | MK13: or is it Settings -> Preferences -> Keyboard? It's somewhere there. | 17:20 |
| marionbarry | yes I can use sudo | 17:20 |
| brummbaer | marionbarry, 'sudo apt-get install rkhunter' from terminal, or if you can get the net you can download a .deb file online. | 17:20 |
| amews_aj | xlq: do you think it is too risky to use a VM for Computer Science education work stuff..? So far it seems fine | 17:20 |
| mazda01 | marionbarry, then what is the error you get when trying to upgrade firefox? | 17:20 |
| marionbarry | ok hold on | 17:20 |
| xlq | mazda01: what's Facebook using? Is it using Java, maybe? | 17:20 |
| user101 | which package should i install for configure: error: Please install GL development package. | 17:20 |
| Zuka | it doesnt want to show you a gnome splash screen | 17:20 |
| mazda01 | xlq, no idea. | 17:20 |
| user101 | I have libmesa1 already | 17:20 |
| Zuka | because you insulted its mohter | 17:20 |
| MK13 | xlq: fixed, thnx | 17:20 |
| Zuka | oh | 17:20 |
| * Zuka scrolls down | 17:20 | |
| xlq | amews_aj: risky? In what way? | 17:20 |
| MK13 | xlq: i can live w/out the euro sign :) | 17:21 |
| Zuka | xlq, facebook uses PHP and some fancy CSS | 17:21 |
| xlq | user101: libmesa1-dev? | 17:21 |
| Qvintvs | is there an opposite to the -nw flag for emacs (ie, explicitly tell emacs to run in a window) | 17:21 |
| amews_aj | That I will run into issues that something they want us to use won't run properly in the VM | 17:21 |
| user101 | xlq : already installed | 17:21 |
| xlq | Zuka: uh..client side | 17:21 |
| Zuka | and javascript | 17:21 |
| xlq | user101: what's already installed? | 17:21 |
| maco | user101: libgl1-mesa-dev maybe? | 17:21 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 17:21 |
| xlq | user101: oh, that package. Sorry, hard to keep track of everyone :) | 17:21 |
| silv3r_m00n | how do I install mod gzip for apache | 17:21 |
| maco | user101: itll be something ending in -dev | 17:21 |
| silv3r_m00n | what is the package name ? | 17:21 |
| user101 | maco: oh right thanks | 17:21 |
| Zuka | i know because i've basically dont a mockup of it before | 17:21 |
| Zuka | done* | 17:21 |
| xlq | user101: you can search for files in packages.ubuntu.com | 17:22 |
| maco | Zuka: for its uploader | 17:22 |
| Zuka | in CSS, you have a property on divs | 17:22 |
| amews_aj | xlq: That I will run into issues that something they want us to use won't run properly in the VM | 17:22 |
| Zuka | uh, oh, try flash, may be java | 17:22 |
| marionbarry | Brummbaer<<..How do I use this software rkhunter...I got it to download now | 17:22 |
| brummbaer | sudo rkhunter -c | 17:22 |
| xlq | amews_aj: I can't think of anything. | 17:22 |
| user101 | xlq: no there is nothing called libmesa1-dev | 17:22 |
| amews_aj | Ok. | 17:22 |
| Zuka | theres an html uploader and a flash one, i think | 17:22 |
| brummbaer | rootkits can boot before OS and do all kinds of malignancy, so it's good to check. | 17:22 |
| brummbaer | if you said this is happening in multiple OS' it could well be a rootkit | 17:23 |

| user101 | xlq: and I already have libgl1-mesa-dev | 17:23 |
| Zuka | the only friends i have are annoying teens | 17:23 |
| maco | MOUD: its best to just use the boring uploader or whatever they call it | 17:23 |
| Zuka | i'm glad i'm not an annoying teen | 17:23 |
| Zuka | i'm just a smart teen | 17:23 |
| xlq | I never used facebook. | 17:23 |

| maco | MOUD: if you want to upload pics, maybe itd help if i point out that F-Spot (the included photo manager) can do mass upload to Flickr, Picasa, and Facebook | 17:24 |
| mazda01 | xlq, i don't know what it is but it's a pain in the butt | 17:25 |
| mazda01 | to upload photos | 17:25 |
| Zuka | or you can get a webserver and just dump them in the htdocs folder! :D | 17:25 |
| maco | mazda01: see what i said about F-Spot making things eaiser | 17:25 |
| Zuka | apaches not hard to set up, xampp is even easier | 17:25 |
| xlq | anr78: You can change your UID by editing /etc/passwd. You've then got to chown all your files (you can do that with 'find') .. probably best to do it in maintenance mode, when you're not logged in as your non-root user. | 17:25 |
| mazda01 | maco, huh? i missed your post about fspot. | 17:25 |
| anr78 | xlq: a bit too late for that ;-) I followed this : http://osxdaily.com/2009/02/19/mac-os-x-change-your-user-id/ | 17:25 |
| maco | mazda01: fspot can mass upload to flickr, picasa, and facebook, so dont bother with their flash/java/stupid mass uploader | 17:26 |
| xlq | anr78: that's not very good. It's chowning *all* your files in your home, regardless of whether you actually own them or not :( | 17:26 |
| Zuka | facebook = annoying shithole | 17:26 |
| rekin | hello | 17:26 |
| mazda01 | maco, oh, iphoto can to but i didn't realize that fspot could do that. thanks for the tip | 17:26 |

| maco | Zuka: we have a policy here of being respectful | 17:26 |
| MOUD | maco: no, it's not that. It's because Facebook isn't displayed correctly | 17:27 |
| mazda01 | Zuka, that's your opinion. thanks for sharing | 17:27 |
| xlq | Gransus_: what happened? | 17:27 |
| Gransus_ | I tried to set it up to dual-boot using the disc like you guys said | 17:27 |
| anr78 | xlq: I agree, but in my home I don't think it mattered much. | 17:27 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 17:27 |
| Zuka | no little kids here know how to work ubuntu | 17:27 |
| Zuka | psh | 17:27 |
| silv3r_m00n | I installed apache from synaptic....what package do I install for mod gzip ? | 17:27 |
| xlq | user101: hmm, your configure script is being a bit vague. | 17:27 |
| Gransus_ | and i had no idea what i was looking at lol | 17:27 |
| Bad_Andy | hey noob question...how come when i try to use DSL on ubuntu my connection manager says "device not managed" and wont connect | 17:27 |
| Bad_Andy | i know the dsl works, im on it now | 17:28 |
| Halitech | Bad_Andy, wireless or wired? | 17:28 |
| anr78 | xlq: but I seem to have files outside my home as well, so I was wondering if "sudo find / -user OLDUID -exec chown NEWUID {} \; -print" sounds good | 17:28 |
| Crayboff | does anyone have an easy way to share internet with an xbox via ethernet cable? it's easy in windows, you just check a box, but how would i go about doing this in ubuntu? something with firestarter? | 17:28 |
| Bad_Andy | its wired dsl, its a normal desktop pc | 17:28 |
| rekin | ff | 17:28 |
| nicolason544 | ciao | 17:28 |
| xlq | anr78: maybe | 17:28 |
| rodimus | can someone tell me how to enable my gnome splash screen?> | 17:28 |
| silv3r_m00n | what is the synaptic package for mod_gzip ? | 17:29 |
| Gransus_ | So, when it says to set up new partitions guys, i tried to make a new partition table cuz that was kinda the only option | 17:29 |
| Gransus_ | but i had no idea what to set anything as | 17:29 |
| Bad_Andy | i added the dsl connection with the correct user name and PW but it just wont connect | 17:29 |
| xlq | silv3r_m00n: where does apache keep its modules? | 17:30 |
| user101 | xlq: got it :-) libglu1-mesa-dev | 17:30 |
| barcode_ | gnomes power button disapeered :( | 17:30 |
| xlq | Gransus_: don't create a new partition table! | 17:30 |
| mazda01 | silv3r_m00n, http://schroepl.net/projekte/mod_gzip/ | 17:30 |
| Gransus_ | lol ok | 17:30 |
| maco | Gransus_: dont choose manual partition | 17:30 |
| ltcabral | whats the command to run firefox and open that screen to create new profiles? | 17:30 |
| lstarnes | xlq: I think it's/usr/lib/apache2/modules/ | 17:30 |
| Gransus_ | Well, the only other option was to overwrite all of vista | 17:30 |
| xlq | ltcabral: read firefox --help | 17:30 |
| wildc4rd | evening all | 17:30 |
| silv3r_m00n | xlq: means ? | 17:30 |
| maco | Gransus_: there should be a "guided: use whole disk" option and an option for a guided dual boot | 17:31 |
| maco | Gransus_: manul is the 3rd option | 17:31 |
| maco | Gransus_: unless...are you using the text installer? | 17:31 |
| Gransus_ | only 2 options | 17:31 |
| barcode_ | is it possible to repair gnome? | 17:31 |
| maco | Gransus_: was it a live cd and you could click around, or was it blue and red and grey text and you had to tab around and use the spacebar and stuff? | 17:31 |
| Pici | silv3r_m00n: mod_deflate has replaced mod_gzip in apache2, to enable it: sudo a2enmod deflate It is installed with the default apache2 install. | 17:31 |
| Gransus_ | Its a live cd | 17:31 |
| xlq | barcode_: no. It's completely broken. Buy a new one :D | 17:31 |
| Gransus_ | that i downloaded | 17:32 |
| user101 | what are the problems faced to port a source build executable from ubuntu to centos | 17:32 |
| Gransus_ | from ubuntu.com | 17:32 |
| silv3r_m00n | Pici: let me check | 17:32 |
| rodimus | can someone tell me why ctrl alt backspace does not work anymore? | 17:32 |
| xlq | Pici: well done :) | 17:32 |
| Pici | !dontzap | rodimus | 17:32 |
| ubottu | rodimus: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 17:32 |
| lstarnes | barcode_: you might just need to add the applet back to the panel | 17:32 |
| Pici | rodimus: Because the xorg developers removed the feature | 17:32 |
| marionbarry | would someone familiar with rkhunter please check this pastebin out http://paste.ubuntu.com/253252/ | 17:32 |
| barcode_ | i turned my computer off and turned it on and got these gnome errors and nowi dont have a power button, and there was no applet :X | 17:32 |
| lstarnes | barcode_: right-click on the panel, select "add to panel", then look for the quit applet | 17:32 |
| Gransus_ | can someone who knows alot about dual booting private chat me? | 17:33 |
| silv3r_m00n | Pici: now how to check whether it is really working or not ? | 17:33 |
| lstarnes | marionbarry: check /var/log/rkhunter.log as well | 17:33 |
| xlq | user101: are you referring to copying an executable you compiled on one distro, to another, and running it? | 17:33 |
| user101 | xlq: yes | 17:33 |
| xlq | Gransus_: is it possible to show us a screenshot? | 17:33 |
| thiebaude | Granis, the first option on the live cd is install side by side | 17:34 |
| xlq | <silv3r_m00n> xlq: means ? - what? | 17:34 |
| marionbarry | Lstarnes<<how do I check var/log/rkhunter.log? | 17:34 |
| thiebaude | Gransus_, | 17:34 |
| Gransus_ | ok sec | 17:34 |
| lstarnes | marionbarry: do you know how to look at a file? | 17:34 |
| Gransus_ | let me go look at what it gives me again | 17:34 |
| dudleyi | If anyone has any free time, what would make an Ubuntu instance constantly run at 100%? | 17:34 |
| Gransus_ | and i will come back | 17:34 |
| Gransus_ | brb | 17:34 |
| Pici | silv3r_m00n: You'll need to configure it once you enable it, see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_deflate.html for the settings | 17:34 |
| thiebaude | Gransus_, 3 options on the live cd | 17:34 |
| marionbarry | not all that familiar but I do know how to look at some not all | 17:34 |
| Bad_Andy | does anyone know why ubuntu says "device not managed" for my wired connection? pretty sure my network card works but i cant get ubuntu to connect with it | 17:34 |
| dudleyi | Straight after the login screen, my CPU constantly runs at 100% | 17:35 |
| dudleyi | and it's maddening. | 17:35 |
| xlq | barcode_: what errors? | 17:35 |
| MadGirl | errors are here | 17:35 |
| lstarnes | marionbarry: it's basically a plain text file | 17:35 |
| thiebaude | dudleyi, check in system monitor to see whats up | 17:35 |
| lstarnes | dudleyi: check the system monitor (system > administration > system monitor) | 17:35 |
| dudleyi | I checked | 17:35 |
| maco | Bad_Andy: does dsl involve dialing junk? | 17:35 |
| dudleyi | and anything that I have running in focus | 17:35 |
| === jon is now known as Guest52457 | ||
| xlq | user101: well, nothing's guaranteed. Sometimes it'll work fine. Sometimes it'll say "No such file or directory" because of missing libraries. Sometimes it'll break in obscure ways. It all depends on what libraries it was linked against. | 17:35 |
| maco | Bad_Andy: if so you might need ppp stuff... | 17:35 |
| Ahtenus | Could someone please check their /etc/pule/daemon.conf and check what default-fragments and what default-fragment-size-msec is set to? | 17:35 |

| thiebaude | dudleyi, what processes are using that much | 17:36 |
| lstarnes | marionbarry: do you know how to view a text file? | 17:36 |
| Bad_Andy | its normal broadband i think | 17:36 |
| thiebaude | !top | 17:36 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about top | 17:36 |
| dudleyi | damned thing told me TOP was running at 60% | 17:36 |
| xlq | Bad_Andy: what device is it? | 17:36 |
| Bad_Andy | its a gigabyt ethernet card onboard my motherboard | 17:36 |
| maco | Bad_Andy: ive only ever used cable internet, so im not sure. you have a phone line go into a modem, then an ethernet cable come from modem (possibly through router) to your computer? | 17:36 |
| Bad_Andy | ya exactly that maco | 17:37 |
| thiebaude | dudleyi, in system monitor > show all processes | 17:37 |
| dudleyi | Give me a bit, I'll bring the tablet over here to say it in real time. | 17:37 |

| dudleyi | k, thanks thiebaude. one sec | 17:37 |
| thiebaude | dudleyi, ok | 17:37 |
| maco | Bad_Andy: any chance there's a stanza about eth0 in your /etc/network/interfaces ? | 17:37 |
| Bad_Andy | and i have to enter a user name and PW but theres no dialing | 17:37 |
| maco | Bad_Andy: oh. | 17:37 |
| Ahtenus | xlq: Ok, why? Does it suck? | 17:37 |
| Marcek | Witam jest ktoś z Polski | 17:38 |
| Bad_Andy | yeah it says it recognizes a eth0 interfac i think | 17:38 |
| dudleyi | Also, trying to install the nvidia drivers for this laptop is proving to be impossible, | 17:38 |
| Bad_Andy | but i cant get it to ping anything | 17:38 |
| maco | Bad_Andy: oh... there's authentication? weirdness | 17:38 |
| maco | Bad_Andy: ok i think this is what that ppp stuff is for | 17:38 |
| dudleyi | Constant "NVidia Beta Drivers logo" loop until X just tells me I'm running in low graphics mode. | 17:38 |
| maco | Bad_Andy: maybe the "pppoeconf" command will help? | 17:38 |
| Marcek | please device x3100 intel ||| No english | 17:38 |
| xlq | Ahtenus: it has been said that PulseAudio is a solution looking for a problem. | 17:39 |
| Bad_Andy | ya like in windows i use the local area connection thing to connect | 17:39 |
| anr78 | should "sudo find / -user 501 -exec chown 1000 {} \; -print" change to ownership of all files owned by user 501 to user 1000? | 17:39 |
| Bad_Andy | hmm | 17:39 |

| Marcek | polska | 17:39 |
| Bad_Andy | so enter like, "ifconfig ppoeconf"? | 17:39 |
| dudleyi | thiebaude, I'm booting up the laptop | 17:39 |
| thiebaude | ok | 17:39 |
| maco | Bad_Andy: no, "pppoeconf" is a command | 17:39 |
| dudleyi | it usually takes about 5 minutes for it to boot | 17:39 |
| dudleyi | but, I had an older ubuntu version on it and that one ran fine | 17:40 |
| xlq | Marcek: /join #ubuntu-pl | 17:40 |

| thiebaude | dudleyi, im sticking with the LTS's | 17:40 |
| dudleyi | I installed 9.04 via PXE | 17:40 |
| dudleyi | since this tablet has no onboard CD drive | 17:41 |
| Ahtenus | xlq: Ok, my sound is all Scratchy when using mumble but i changed thouse settings and it whent away but now there isn't any sound from flash videos | 17:41 |
| Bad_Andy | i think my DSL uses DHCP though | 17:41 |
| dudleyi | ok. I can't boot into gnome so I'm using terminal | 17:42 |
| xlq | Ahtenus: try installing libflashsupport | 17:42 |

| dudleyi | You want to protect your DVD from grandmas | 17:46 |
| xlq | Ahtenus: well, I'm not sure really, since I removed pulseaudio and I use plain ALSA (or JACK sometimes) | 17:46 |
| simohayha | I know its useless but my goal is to protect from average users from burning it with nero | 17:46 |
| dudleyi | and I think they have no interest in actually ripping anything. | 17:46 |
| Ahtenus | xlq: Humm ok but thanks anyway | 17:46 |
| Ahtenus | xlq: I'll try googleling some more | 17:47 |
| mdwright | When using startx as one user it tries to use the .XAuthority file of a different user, which he clearly doesn't own. My $HOME variable is set correctly, and I'm not sure what else to do for this problem. | 17:47 |
| xlq | simohayha: I highly doubt anyone in the Linux community would bother to implement the *reverse* of libdvdcss :) | 17:47 |
| Halitech | dudleyi, instead of gnome maybe install xfce and see how it works | 17:47 |
| dudleyi | vesa is the default failsafe driver, right? | 17:47 |
| parapanghelescu | hi there fellows just first one from my side ...I'm using jaunty as a OS but being new to linux ....should I install an antivirus software ????? | 17:47 |
| thiebaude | !wm | 17:48 |
| xlq | dudleyi: I think so | 17:48 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about wm | 17:48 |
| dudleyi | Halitech, I had ubuntu installed with gnome on this system before. It ran like butter. | 17:48 |
| xlq | parapanghelescu: there's usually no need to bother. | 17:48 |
| conseal | parapanghelescu: I've never been bothered with viruses, but you can always install clamav or something like that. | 17:48 |
| simohayha | xlq, I understand. Is there anything available on any other distro? | 17:48 |
| Halitech | dudleyi, same version or an older version? | 17:48 |
| xlq | simohayha: what are you referring to? | 17:48 |
| dudleyi | The HDD died and I had to replace it, and install ubuntu on it via PXE. Now Gnome is acting like crap. | 17:48 |
| dudleyi | I believe it ws 8 | 17:49 |
| dudleyi | I have 9 on it. | 17:49 |
| xlq | parapanghelescu: from what I gather, people use anti-virus software on Linux to delete viruses from servers that people have uploaded | 17:49 |
| parapanghelescu | I had the same opinion collected from other users until I found out this ...AVG Antivirus Server Edition for Linux/FreeBSD | 17:49 |
| dudleyi | xlq is right. That's what antivirus softeware is used for on Linux | 17:49 |
| parapanghelescu | xlq > hmmm ...could be so | 17:49 |
| dudleyi | Just because the server isn't affected by the code doesn't mean it still isn't a carrier. | 17:50 |
| xlq | simoha...HE'S GONE TOO! :( | 17:50 |
| Halitech | dudleyi, I've tried installing 9.04 on systems that had 8.04 and 8.10 previously and 9.04 ran like molasses uphill, worked great in 8.04 and 8.10 | 17:50 |
| dudleyi | Ah, damn. | 17:50 |
| dudleyi | It's going to be a trial to get 8.04 on this system. | 17:50 |
| xlq | dudleyi: you could try using a more minimal desktop | 17:50 |
| Halitech | dudleyi, try sudo apt-get install lxde for a nice lightweight de | 17:50 |
| dudleyi | The only computers I have nearby is this old iBook (which PXE is retarded on) | 17:51 |
| xlq | dudleyi: I use fluxbox for a window manager, xterm for a terminal, etc. and my computer's pretty fast | 17:51 |
| thiebaude | dudleyi, or fluxbor, openbox etc | 17:51 |
| thiebaude | !fluxbox | 17:51 |
| ubottu | fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox | 17:51 |
| dudleyi | and a gateway without an internet connection | 17:51 |
| dudleyi | Yeah, I used to use xfce | 17:51 |
| xlq | dudleyi: unfortunately, in my opinion, xfce is no longer lightweight. | 17:51 |
| dudleyi | I would suppose. I've not used it in a while. | 17:51 |
| xlq | lxde looks like it wants to be Windows XP :( | 17:52 |
| thiebaude | dudleyi, i use openbox with 8.04 | 17:52 |
| Halitech | dudleyi, I used to use Ubuntu, then changed to Xubuntu, upgraded my system to an amd 5200+ and still use xfce | 17:52 |

| xlq | Crayboff: mazda01 thinks firestarter might help you | 17:58 |
| mazda01 | thiebaude, if you use pcmanfm, do you know how to add more commands to the right click context menu? | 17:58 |

| armence | OK, my computer shut down unbidden about 1-3 hours ago while I was out and I am trying to find some sort of evidence of what happened... I can't find anything a segfault in kern.log or really anywhere else and I am starting to wonder if it might have been something like a very brief power-outage... Is there any way to find out? | 18:21 |
| Halitech | ramos, yup. should pull in the dependencies | 18:21 |
| manuelrazzari | jrib: I was hoping for a less drastic measure :( | 18:21 |

| dudleyi | okay. this is just annoying. I'll give arch linux a try. | 18:21 |

| xlq | delaman: look at /var/log/mysql... or something | 19:02 |
| djamil | Coldbane2010_> u need to copile them | 19:03 |
| apoleo12 | xlq: Im thinking of booting into windows to take a look at the disk manager to see where its exactly at (root part) cuz as I recalled its on disk 3 and partition is the first which is left side portion | 19:03 |
| apoleo12 | do I make sense/ | 19:03 |
| djamil | Coldbane2010_> u need to compile them | 19:03 |
| apoleo12 | ? | 19:03 |
| xlq | nicks007: have you left another package manager open? | 19:03 |
| Pici | djamil: Er... no you don't. | 19:03 |
| djamil | Pici lol yes u do | 19:03 |
| xlq | Coldbane2010_: what sort of drivers? | 19:03 |
| djamil | Pici unless binary pack | 19:03 |
| Pici | djamil: It depends what 'drivers' (modules) you want. | 19:03 |
| nicks007 | djamil, will Envy-ng installation work ? | 19:03 |
| sysdoc | Pici, I havent installed yet, wanted to ask 1st so I'd know which ver to install. Would like to install 9.04 to take advantage of the ext4 file sys | 19:03 |
| masquerade | i have problems with audio in ubuntu after a fresh jaunty install. the sound is playing, but not cleanly. its stuttering/cracking. (here is my alsa information http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=e64b61ae1fb9e2a661ebcabc15bb5a9156fa5f95 ) | 19:03 |
| djamil | nicks007> it should yes | 19:04 |
| xlq | apoleo12: you can have a look. It also won't do any harm to keep changing menu.lst and see what works. | 19:04 |
| nicks007 | xlq, this is because of power cut | 19:04 |
| Pici | sysdoc: Well, we'd be able to help more if you could tell us what ATI model card you are using. | 19:04 |
| apoleo12 | the menu.lst is harmless? can I make changes to see if I get it to work? | 19:04 |
| murlidhar | hi all ..how should i synchorize my time with internet ???? i am using openbox session only !!! | 19:04 |
| maco | murlidhar: install ntp | 19:04 |
| xlq | masquerade: do you know what sound device you have? | 19:04 |
| murlidhar | synchronize* | 19:04 |
| murlidhar | maco: ty | 19:04 |
| xlq | apoleo12: it's sensible to make a backup of menu.lst. But if GRUB has the wrong disk numbers, it'll just fail. It won't mess anything up. | 19:05 |
| xlq | apoleo12: GRUB only ever reads from the hard disks (except when chainloading, possibly) | 19:06 |
| vk | would anyone have an answer to why 'shutdown 0' locks up the os at the end of shutdown and a gui shutdown doesnt? | 19:06 |
| murlidhar | maco: errr how should i start using it to synchronize it ? | 19:06 |
| xlq | vk: what do you mean, "locks up the OS"? | 19:06 |
| apoleo12 | xlq: it seem already automatically backed up...menu.lst.backup... good thing eh? | 19:06 |
| xlq | vk: also, do either of "telinit 0" or "poweroff" work? | 19:06 |
| xlq | apoleo12: :) | 19:06 |
| J_A_X | anyone ever had their xserver flicker when opening apps with wine? | 19:06 |
| apoleo12 | whats a chainloading? | 19:07 |
| vk | xlq: when the system is shutting down, right before the ubuntu logo clicks off and the pc shuts down. it locks up | 19:07 |
| Kurlon | ok, try #2 at Ubuntu on this soekris... wish me luck | 19:07 |
| xlq | jbwiv: are you sure /tmp/index didn't already exist? | 19:07 |
| vk | xlq: i have not tried any of the other shutdown commands | 19:07 |
| maco | murlidhar: i think just run "sudo ntpdate" to force a sync | 19:07 |
| jbwiv | xlq: yes, I am | 19:07 |
| xlq | maco, murlidhar: ntpd changes the time gradually to avoid problems | 19:08 |

| apoleo12 | gotcha | 19:09 |

| jbwiv | sethi: try top | 19:11 |
| sethi | I have TOP running already | 19:11 |
| djamil | who is consuming? | 19:11 |
| shachaf | djamil: ISP? It's not the DNS server to blame here. | 19:11 |
| sethi | update-apt-xapi is using 70% | 19:11 |

| FAJ | halitech; sudo apt-get install madwifi? | 19:14 |
| nanotube | combo: which file are you trying to download? post a linky. | 19:15 |
| sethi | Anyone have an idea? | 19:15 |
| djamil | combo: wget ? or browser? | 19:15 |
| nanotube | combo: and post your full wget command that you're using. | 19:15 |
| Halitech | FAJ, not sure | 19:15 |
| djamil | its a script, use the browser | 19:15 |
| FAJ | Halitech: just installed madwifi-tools | 19:15 |

| smarf | any ideas? | 19:16 |
| combo | nanotube: here You go... that's e.g. only, cuz all files are same way http://rapideo.pl/pliki/22617/lv-223.part2.rar | 19:16 |
| djamil | they are protected | 19:16 |
| combo | nanotube: my command is 'wget http://rapideo.pl/pliki/22617/lv-223.part2.rar' ;P | 19:16 |
| djamil | use the browser | 19:16 |
| nanotube | combo: ok let me try... | 19:16 |
| smarf | anyone please? | 19:16 |
| combo | djamil: hm, but i have about 100 files, and want download them at once with 'wget -i ./file_with_link.txt' | 19:16 |
| nanotube | combo: same here. must be some redirect at that url... | 19:17 |
| sysdoc | Pici, The ati card is a Radeon 3100 on a brand new laptop | 19:17 |

| jbwiv | xlq: surprisingly, rebooting fixed the du issue | 19:17 |
| combo | nanotube: but with webbrowser works all fine ;/ | 19:17 |
| smarf | lolek, it's so easy to setup, and I can't have it running, it's so annoying really!! | 19:17 |
| combo | in any browser ;/ | 19:17 |
| djamil | combo, u see | 19:18 |
| smarf | sorry for repeating myself but.. | 19:18 |
| djamil | because its script aware | 19:18 |
| nanotube | combo: well, it seems that it's still downloading the file... so just rename it after it's done. | 19:18 |
| combo | djamil: got to be some simple way to download that 100 files :( | 19:18 |
| Pici | sysdoc: Probably, the Ubuntu hardware compatibility list has the 3200 listed as being compatible, so the 3100 probably is as well. | 19:18 |
| lolek | smarf: yeah... i know this feeling, when you can't find a girl to lower your pressure :D | 19:18 |
| smarf | lolek, yeh that too:p | 19:18 |
| djamil | ename them as he says | 19:18 |
| combo | nanotube: thought that already :) hm... ok try to download some sample and do that :) | 19:18 |
| combo | djamil: ok, will try to rename ;) | 19:19 |
| FAJ | Halitech: didn't work; it seems like the ath9k isn't even modprobing. | 19:19 |
| djamil | ;) | 19:19 |
| combo | hehe, that's nice solution ^^ | 19:19 |
| nanotube | combo: another thing to try - you can use the "downthemall" extension for firefox. that makes it easy to queue a bunch of downloads at once. | 19:19 |
| FAJ | b/c lshw tells me that the network is unclaimed if not using ndiswrapper | 19:19 |
| djamil | combo: yes ! | 19:19 |

| bhaskar | do u get it shah16: | 19:49 |
| MOUD | Turl: no, there's no router. It's like a "Create a new connection" on windows | 19:49 |
| Kurlon | kyle_: apt-get only works with apps installed through it, you're going to have to manually remove wine on your system if you built/installed from source. | 19:49 |
| Turl | MOUD: then your pc is hooked to the modem? or how? | 19:49 |
| shah16 | bhaskar: paste me to link | 19:49 |
| digitalaxis | Who here knows how to get it so you can get the "box" effect with the 4 windows, and move it around etc, i did it in an older version | 19:49 |

| digitalaxis | do i type that in the terminal infected? | 19:50 |
| shadeslayer | goldins: ?? | 19:50 |
| Turl | MOUD: the "wifi antenna" is a router I guess | 19:50 |
| InfectedWithDrew | digitalaxis: I was trying to get ubbotu to give you some info but I guess I'll type it all out. Install Compiz from Add/Remove and configure it. Make sure you have your proprietary graphics driver installed first. | 19:51 |
| Kurlon | Turl: I think he's in an area with commerical WiFi, doing PPPoE over it for auth/accounting. | 19:51 |
| goldins | shadeslayer: I don't use KDE, nor have I ever wanted to get plasmoid to work | 19:51 |

| Turl | MOUD: access your router admin (usually http://192.168.1.1/) and configure your user/password there | 19:52 |
| kyle_ | or is it a long process | 19:52 |
| Kurlon | Turl: He doesn't have a router | 19:52 |
| trashpanick | ok so i quit | 19:52 |
| Kurlon | Turl: He needs to do pppoe on his laptop/pc OVER his Wifi connection. | 19:52 |

| MOUD | Turl: yes, the problem is that I don't know how to use it to connect | 19:54 |

| sheit | th0r, awesome works great thanks | 20:48 |
| arleslie | bumbula, or to install streamripper, open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get install streamripper | 20:48 |

| arleslie | przemek_, do you have a 64bit processor, it should be compatible with your computer, if its not it just simpley wont work, I do recommend the 32bit unless your running more then 2gb of ram | 20:56 |
| arleslie | bumbula, yes that icon | 20:56 |

| apoleo12 | is grub repairible??? | 20:59 |
| JenniferB | these stuff I can some of.. but since the run-app command is always visible .. they are kind of hidden under neath.. if I resize my window I can see more.. but still not engouh.. i think there is a way to scroll that stuff | 20:59 |
| arleslie | apoleo12, yes grub is repairable, what seems to be the problem | 20:59 |
| JenniferB | am I making it difficult to understand? :D | 21:00 |
| bumbula | areslie ok i guess i understand but cant find this downloadmanager right now....but in this way i can see where the stuff i downloaded is | 21:00 |
| kyle_ | does anyone know how i can remove a version of wine that i compiled and installed? | 21:00 |

| LioN_LX | Need help with sound delay in some games with Jaunty | 21:00 |
| bumbula | areslie ok | 21:00 |
| apoleo12 | arleslie: | 21:01 |
| rautamiekka | kyle_: try searching Wine using Aptitude or Synaptic | 21:01 |
| apoleo12 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/253342/ | 21:01 |
| mary | Anyone noticed security certificates changed in their firefox 3.0? | 21:01 |
| rautamiekka | kyle_: then purge it | 21:01 |
| sheit | ati or nvidia graphcis card better on ubuntu | 21:01 |
| kyle_ | lol im a linux noob is there a terminal command i should use? | 21:01 |
| mary | and thunderbird | 21:01 |
| rautamiekka | kyle_: aptitude search wine | 21:02 |
| anr78 | is there a gui-tool or something for mounting partitions? | 21:02 |
| rautamiekka | kyle_: or just open "sudo synaptic" and look for Wine | 21:02 |
| bumbula | areslie ok i try ctrl+j nothing...but ctrl+y is fine i guess | 21:02 |
| rautamiekka | kyle_: if you found it using Aptitude, issue "sudo aptitude remove --purge wine" | 21:02 |
| blip- | hi all, is there a way to do an 'apt-get upgrade' but skip certain packages ? I want to upgrade everything, except the kernel related packages | 21:03 |
| apoleo12 | arleslie: the path cannot be changed... | 21:03 |
| arleslie | bumbula, I have no idea, please post your question again and see if someone else can help you, I'm not in linux right now so I can't help as much as I want to. | 21:03 |
| jerkman | blip-: the graphical updater does that | 21:03 |
| Kelder | kyle_: you probably compiled it in your /home folder, remove that as well after you removed it in aptitude - next time you want to install wine and you want the latest, add a repository for it instead of compiling it yourself, much quicker and much more foolproof | 21:03 |
| blip- | jerkman: oh yeah synaptic, forgot about it. thanks | 21:03 |
| arleslie | apoleo12, do you have a Ubuntu Live CD | 21:04 |
| apoleo12 | yea I do | 21:04 |
| rautamiekka | blip-: you could open either Aptitude or Synaptic and forbid the packages | 21:04 |
| bumbula | areslie no problem thx for your help :-) and i go back to 3dsmax | 21:04 |
| kyle_ | i only compiled it myself to try and use the hardware cursor patch for WoW but all that did was make my cursor disappear | 21:04 |
| gogeta | lol | 21:04 |
| apoleo12 | I was in liveCD earlier | 21:04 |
| blip- | thanks rautamiekka | 21:05 |
| sheit | i want to turn on visual effect but the last systtem i turned it on would never boot back into ubuntu.. | 21:05 |
| arleslie | apoleo12, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot?action=show&redirect=WindowsDualBootHowTo#Recovering GRUB after reinstalling Windows | 21:05 |
| kyle_ | if anyone knows anything about the hardware cursor patch that might make the cursor appear then i wouldnt have to uninstall wine | 21:05 |
| kyle_ | im jsut trying to redo it incase i missed something | 21:05 |
| Kelder | kyle_: shame, did you try it with both game settings as well? in game you can also choose hardware cursor or not | 21:05 |
| Brazz | anyone here have got STEAM to run on jaunty? | 21:06 |
| kyle_ | not with opengl you cant and opengl is the only way wow will run decently | 21:06 |
| arleslie | apoleo12, that link is for dualbooting but it should restore grub | 21:06 |
| rautamiekka | kyle_: by my memory, WOW works great under Wine with no other tricks than forcing it to use OpenGL | 21:06 |
| kyle_ | i got wow to run good its jsut the laggy cursor and under opengl you cant enable hardware cursor | 21:06 |
| Kelder | think he has it running fine, just tweaking | 21:06 |
| Brazz | rautamiekka: that was before 3.2.0 | 21:06 |
| guntbert | apoleo12: have you seen https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto#Backup,%20Repairing%20and%20Reinstalling%20GRUB ? | 21:07 |
| rautamiekka | Brazz: oh, they did that much changing in 3.2.0 | 21:07 |
| Rehash | hi how can i change identd? | 21:07 |
| apoleo12 | arleslie: actually i installed windows last year first then ubuntu a few weeks ago | 21:07 |
| apoleo12 | arleslie: actually I installed windows first last year... then ubuntu a few weeks ago.... | 21:08 |
| Brazz | rautamiekka: as I was reading on appDB many people are having troubles to get wow running after 3.2.0 | 21:08 |
| shanky | any help with desktop effects could not be enabled. | 21:08 |
| apoleo12 | but Ill consider this anyway | 21:08 |
| Brazz | rautamiekka: the only ones that I have seen running wow perfectly are them using Karmic (9.10) not jaunty | 21:08 |
| arleslie | apoleo12, well this should fix it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot?action=show&redirect=WindowsDualBootHowTo#Recovering%20GRUB%20after%20reinstalling%20Windows | 21:08 |
| JenniferB | Let me try again: I am running an application.. it keeps putting out some output once a while. I can see some of it only. Since it's running, I can't see all output ever made because I can always still see the command that I used to run the application in the same window... | 21:08 |
| Brazz | kyle_: hey mate, have you got STEAM running? | 21:08 |
| JenniferB | the output is somehow in a "frame" that starts on the next line after the run-app command. I am running screen by the way... | 21:08 |
| kyle_ | yeah like i said i got it to run decently its just the cursor and im even using an ati card | 21:08 |
| kyle_ | steam? | 21:08 |
| rautamiekka | Brazz: Right. I havent played/used WOW after some time cuz brother quit using Ubuntu | 21:09 |
| kyle_ | like i said im new to linux | 21:09 |
| apoleo12 | Ok thanks guys... | 21:09 |
| gogeta | rautamiekka: use the wine repos not the jaunty ones wow runs great then\ | 21:09 |
| Brazz | rautamiekka: have you got STEAM running? | 21:09 |
| rautamiekka | Brazz: I did have it running under Wine. Laggy but worked. | 21:09 |
| kyle_ | heres what i did | 21:09 |
| shanky | any help with desktop effects could not be enabled. | 21:09 |
| Brazz | rautamiekka: what's your videocard? | 21:09 |
| kyle_ | under the ubuntu wine wow sucked | 21:09 |
| arleslie | Ubuntu 9.04 isn't detecting my usb modem, but its detecting the removable drive filesystem part of it. | 21:10 |
| kyle_ | so i downloaded the winehq 1.27 and it worked great | 21:10 |
| rautamiekka | Brazz: Brother's computer has got GeForce 9500 GT. My own has 8600 GT | 21:10 |
| Kelder | i never noticed cursor lag in opengl wow thru wine, but i did have big trouble running ventrillo reliably at the same time - was back in wow version 2.4 though | 21:10 |
| kyle_ | then i followed the steps on the ubuntu forums on how to force a hardware cursor and thats when all went south | 21:10 |
| gogeta | kyle as i said use the winehq repos | 21:10 |
| Brazz | rautamiekka: I have an old ATI card, jaunty's nightmare | 21:10 |
| guntbert | JenniferB: screen *is* different! type ctrl+a <ESC> | 21:10 |
| MetalHeadDead | why is firefox 3.5 not an automatic update? | 21:10 |
| Brazz | rautamiekka: hehe can't wait til karmic is out. | 21:10 |
| dudleyi | How can I connect to a wirelsss AP with just terminal | 21:11 |
| dudleyi | ? | 21:11 |
| kyle_ | yeah i did use the winehq repository | 21:11 |
| dudleyi | I set the essid, and ifconfig eth2 up | 21:11 |
| arleslie | MetalHeadDead, I don't think 3.5 is released for linux yet, and also FireFox doesn't auto update to 3.5 | 21:11 |
| dudleyi | but I get no positive responses with ping | 21:11 |
| Flannel | MetalHeadDead: Because massive changes to default programs don't happen with Ubuntu releases. Jaunty shipped with 3.0, it'll stay with 3.0. 3.5 is available in the repos. | 21:11 |
| kyle_ | still had laggy cursor tho, but my fps went from 15 to 40 ish | 21:11 |
| kyle_ | on an ati hd3200 | 21:11 |
| Kelder | kyle_: i think your best bet is to revert your changes for now (use the repository version again) and ask for more info in the thread you found | 21:11 |
| guntbert | JenniferB: then use the cursor keys | 21:11 |
| JenniferB | guntbert: THanks ! that worked!! :D | 21:12 |
| kyle_ | yeah thats what i figured ,,, the problem is uninstalling wine now | 21:12 |
| MetalHeadDead | flannel, thanks i just found on tuxarena.com how to upgrade | 21:12 |
| guntbert | JenniferB: its called copy mode - glad to help | 21:12 |
| arleslie | Ubuntu 9.04 isn't detecting my usb modem. | 21:12 |
| gogeta | kyle_: did you install dx9 | 21:12 |
| kyle_ | i tried using synaptic and it jsut seemed to sit there an do nothing | 21:12 |
| Flannel | MetalHeadDead: just install firefox-3.5 | 21:12 |
| kyle_ | lol i didnt know you could lol | 21:12 |
| JenniferB | how big is this buffer? does it log everything for ever or is there a limit? | 21:12 |
| jrock2004 | Hello I am looking for a tool that can show me what port is eating my bandwidth. Any ideas? | 21:12 |
| arand | MetalHeadDead: 3.5 will never be default for jaunty, it will be for karmic 9.10 though | 21:12 |
| MetalHeadDead | ty | 21:13 |
| kyle_ | ok so, i should install wine, then install dx9 then wow and try it ???? | 21:13 |
| gogeta | kyle_: you can get it easly in winetricks | 21:13 |
| kyle_ | is that a program? | 21:13 |
| Kelder | not sure what dx9 would do if you run it in opengl mode anyway? | 21:13 |
| arand | MetalHeadDead: and it is always available as codename "shiretoko" as the package firefox-3.5 | 21:13 |

| Intergalactic | teaqu to change keyboard settings, click on System, Preferences, Keyboard | 21:22 |
| nanotube | freemonttroll: edit /etc/apt/sources.list, uncomment the lines that say "backports" | 21:22 |
| teaqu | thx | 21:22 |
| guntbert | dudleyi: install and use htop | 21:22 |
| guntbert | !info htop | 21:22 |
| ubottu | htop (source: htop): interactive processes viewer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.1-4ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 54 kB, installed size 196 kB | 21:22 |
| arand | shanky: could you run the command "glxinfo" in a command-line terminal and paste the output to www.pastebin.ubuntu.com ? | 21:23 |
| Kelder | dudleyi: there is a system monitor in administration - or you can do it in the terminal, top to see what it is and then killall it | 21:23 |
| freemonttroll | nanotube, there's no such line in there. What do I need to add in? | 21:23 |
| freemonttroll | nanotube, btw, I'm pretty sure mysql 5.1 is not in the hardy backports | 21:23 |
| skeemer | hi, i'm following the tutorial (https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html) and it worked perfect on a 9.04 server, but i get "ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)" on the very first step on a 8.04 server. any ideas? | 21:23 |

| rebecca_ | I have a d600 from dell I just installed ubuntu9.04 and have activated the b43 driver. I checked and the driver included a firmware. I installed wicd and tried to connect to my AP to no avail. I then updated the firmware for my BCM4306 rev 3. and tried to connect again no joy. Any help? | 21:24 |
| freemonttroll | arand, I'm sshing in .. .this is a cloud server | 21:24 |
| guntbert | heo: "allowed time"? | 21:24 |
| arand | freemonttroll: ah, excuses. | 21:24 |
| heo | guntbert: yes, I need to automate things like "yes | rm -r .git" | 21:25 |
| nanotube | freemonttroll: yea, doesn't look like it's in backports. (you can check yourself on http://packages.ubuntu.com ) | 21:25 |
| nanotube | freemonttroll: well, let me see if i can find a mysql ppa | 21:25 |
| deo | hi | 21:25 |

| freemonttroll | nanotube, thx | 21:25 |
| Flannel | freemonttroll, nanotube: 5.1 isn't in Karmic yet (or Jaunty), it won't be backported until that at least. | 21:25 |
| arand | scott1: so no youtube videos after restarting firefox? | 21:26 |
| scott1 | said it installed but napster dont work I think shockwave is trying to work instead of flash | 21:26 |
| freemonttroll | Flannel, what version of Ubuntu do I need to run mysql 5.1. My app has hit a bug in 5.0 and I must upgrade. | 21:26 |
| scott1 | nope | 21:26 |
| * ramma waves | 21:26 | |
| nanotube | freemonttroll: i guess your best bet is to just install the packages straight from mysql.com | 21:27 |
| ramma | Any conky savvy people here? | 21:27 |
| freemonttroll | nanotube, thanks I'll give that a shot | 21:27 |
| guntbert | heo: sorry, no idea - but maybe #bash is a better place for your problem? | 21:27 |
| Oetzi | hello | 21:27 |
| Flannel | freemonttroll: That bug may still be fixed in 5.0 in Ubuntu. File a bug report, etc. Do you have a bug number that can be referenced? | 21:27 |
| pimpmupppet | hello | 21:27 |
| arand | scott1: and if you search for flash in synaptic is flashplugin-installer the only package currently installed? | 21:28 |
| scott1 | yes | 21:28 |
| freemonttroll | Flannel, I don't have the bug number handy, but I do know that I'm not running into the issue on my other dev box which has 5.1 | 21:29 |
| Flannel | freemonttroll: 5.1 is still only in universe in Karmic. I don't know what the rationale is for that. But I suggest filing a bug on LP, and seeing if that particular patch can't be applied. | 21:29 |
| rebecca_ | any one? | 21:29 |
| nanotube | freemonttroll: here's the downloads list on mysql: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html#downloads either grab the "non-rpm" packages and untar, or grab the "generic rpm" and install with "alien" (alien converts rpms to debs) | 21:29 |
| ramma | Anyone know if there's a way to exclude seconds from the conky battery_time variable? | 21:30 |
| freemonttroll | Flannel, nanotube thx for your help! | 21:30 |
| arand | scott1: Ok...strange. We could try going for the alphaversion from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html then. First you'll have to uninstall the flashplugin-installer package. | 21:30 |
| Crash1hd | how can I get the size of a folder including all subfolders in command line? | 21:30 |

| guntbert | ikanobori: JenniferB was talking about screen | 21:40 |
| Kelder | nickjohnson: sure, look for unetbootin | 21:40 |
| Slart | !minimal | nickjohnson | 21:40 |
| ubottu | nickjohnson: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD).

| Tetracomm | Hello, I am having an extremely frustrating problem which I can't find a solution to, My messengers (Xchat and Pidgin) take a long time to realize that the internet connection is disconnected, and instead of disconnecting normally like in Windows, why is that? | 21:44 |
| Tetracomm | It is giving me a headache. | 21:44 |
| guntbert | !wubi | emil111 have you seen | 21:45 |
| ubottu | emil111 have you seen: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 21:45 |
| U238Willy | asodinn, if you're looking for low-end | 21:45 |

| emil111 | I've spend two days trying to install ubuntu next to my XP from live cd and from USB key. the install completes but then I get either an error with the GRUB bootloader, or other problems, either way I can't boot into ubuntu and I have to repair my xp to be able to use that. SO I went for WUBI as another try and this also installs and completes with no problem. | 21:45 |
| U238Willy | try xubuntu | 21:45 |
| emil111 | but cannot boot | 21:45 |

| LioN_LX | danbhfive, Savage 2 and Tremulous | 21:50 |

| Intergalactic | saltair, is it to play games on your browser... e.g. runescape? | 22:12 |
| ipatrol6010 | My terminal is complaining that /sbin/mount.vboxsf doesn't exist when it does | 22:12 |
| nztal | gogeta, guntbert, thank you. | 22:13 |
| Bonner | The card only works with the WICD network manager | 22:13 |
| saltair | uhh well its the painting thing but i can test that too | 22:13 |
| IdleOne | !java > saltair | 22:13 |
| ubottu | saltair, please see my private message | 22:13 |
| Bonner | Using Network-manager, I get nothing out of it | 22:13 |
| arand | saltair: in what way does it not install? | 22:13 |
| armence | Is there somebody who could help me out with enabling wsgi and cgi (python and perl) on my apache2 web server? I have tried to google those things, but I have yet to succeed | 22:13 |
| dz0 | I'm trying to install ubuntu server on a 64bit amd with SATA disks, and I get "kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block" | 22:13 |
| dz0 | help please | 22:13 |
| gogeta | nztal: you need the java plugin as well for stuff to work inside firefox | 22:13 |
| guntbert | dudleyi: are you checking with top/htop? | 22:13 |
| Intergalactic | you might need to install a java equivalent (it is supported by Sun too) calls Icedtea | 22:13 |
| saltair | arand, I did it via terminal | 22:13 |

| prince_jammys | saltair: you need to hit tab to get to the ok button | 22:14 |
| IdleOne | saltair, use the tab key to select OK ( make it blue ) then enter | 22:14 |
| saltair | yep thanks | 22:14 |

| saltair | E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 22:15 |

| Wast3d2009 | gogeta what a dumb typo ^^ | 22:18 |
| ipatrol6010 | How do I add it? | 22:18 |
| ikanobori | ipatrol6010: Pastebin the output of your terminal when you enter this command: pwd && ls -a | 22:18 |
| ipatrol6010 | How do I add sbin to my path? | 22:18 |
| gogeta | Wast3d2009: most linux stuff uses - unrar is a very rare one also once you ave installed unrar the gui can unrar now to | 22:18 |
| ipatrol6010 | Gimme a sec | 22:18 |
| ikanobori | ipatrol6010: While you are in the folder where you should 'see' the file. | 22:19 |
| gogeta | Wast3d2009: save some typin | 22:19 |
| Wast3d2009 | gogeta i had all... but i used -e which was a common typo... | 22:19 |
| ikanobori | ipatrol6010: Also pastebin the output of stat /sbbin/mount.vboxsf | 22:19 |

| bullit | Q : plz elaborate on what Recursive means (not a native speaker) | 22:39 |
| nanotube | Kapli: just those, afaik | 22:39 |
| nanotube | bullit: recursive in this case means "this dir, and everything under it" | 22:39 |
| Guest50352 | which cli command allows me to edit user information created with useradd | 22:39 |
| Kapli | Weird, because I just installed ATI proprietary drivers and when I rebooted I came into some weird mode and I could view xorg logs that said what was wrong | 22:39 |
| nanotube | Guest50352: usermod ? | 22:39 |
| ikanobori | nanotube: This directory, everything in it, and all directories in the directories in it. | 22:40 |
| ikanobori | Err. bullit ^^ | 22:40 |
| coffeebean[2] | built: I know that Recursive is something that tends to repeat in an acronym, like GNU, where the G in GNU is GNU. | 22:40 |
| nanotube | ikanobori: :) | 22:40 |

| h4f | arand: there was a program like that in windows :( | 22:49 |
| nanotube | h4f: how would it know if you want to type "hello" or "ncdoe" (for example)? wouldn't it keep switching layouts on you whenever you need to type some unusual combinations? | 22:50 |

| emil1111 | coffeebean[2]: I have a burned live cd, I've made a usb boot with the tool from inside ubuntu live, and I'm trying to run wubi | 22:59 |
| IdleOne | nanotube, Im not a coder but would it not be easier to have the program monitor the window and then have it set the appropriate layout. would involve some setting of preferred layout for the windows at first | 22:59 |
| danbhfive | gjl: you should ask in #ubuntu+1 | 22:59 |
| gjl | ok, thanks | 22:59 |
| nanotube | IdleOne: but windows always change... would be certainly /easier/ to implement, but /not/ easier to use. | 22:59 |
| emil1111 | the live cd works fine for booting and running live, but for install, it does install and then there is some error iwth the GRUB bootloader and it gets stuck trying to boot | 22:59 |
| arand | h4f: glad to help, kinda dissapointed it doesn't support swedish, I wanted to give it a spin :) | 23:00 |
| IdleOne | nanotube, the window titles don't normally change or maybe they do. in any case he found his answer | 23:00 |
| coffeebean[2] | emil1111: I'm still thinking that it has to do with a corrupt cd. | 23:00 |
| coffeebean[2] | emil1111: hold on let me check. | 23:00 |
| emil1111 | coffeebean[2]: sure | 23:00 |
| InfectedWithDrew | nanotube: I broke my entire sound system. Next time I will not bother with compiling from source. | 23:00 |
| h4f | Great | 23:01 |
| nanotube | IdleOne: no, i mean windows themselves. you open a new tab - there's a new window. you close irc and tomorrow open it again, have to reset again... etc. but yea, xneur seems to do the trick quite nicely. | 23:01 |
| ascheel | Can someone tell me how to cat a man page to stdout? | 23:01 |
| h4f | nanotube: arand: thanks works great | 23:02 |
| nanotube | ascheel: man whatever | cat | 23:02 |
| ascheel | nanotube thanks! :) | 23:02 |
| nanotube | InfectedWithDrew: well, i guess you better reinstall from the repos the alsa package | 23:02 |
| IdleOne | nanotube, well #ubuntu is always #ubuntu then set the pref layout and save that for next time it is opened. lol not sure why Im still on this | 23:02 |
| ascheel | nanotube: That works awesome | 23:02 |
| coffeebean[2] | emil1111: try downloading wubi and installing it. | 23:02 |
| th0r | nanotube: I gotta ask...what does that do for you that 'man' doesn't? | 23:02 |
| nanotube | IdleOne: i guess... but when you write email, always new windows, so would be useless. :) | 23:03 |
| nanotube | th0r: not for me, for ascheel, because he asked. | 23:03 |
| IdleOne | true | 23:03 |
| nanotube | IdleOne: no prob, it's fun to think about it :) | 23:03 |
| gjl | emil1111, have you tried installing after you boot the live cd environment? | 23:03 |
| nanotube | ascheel: np :) | 23:03 |
| ascheel | th0r: Some terminals don't let you scroll back up to the man page, so you have to bring it up in a idfferent terminal window. | 23:03 |
| seanthegeek | I have a new otherboard installed in my box that is now using ipv6 out of the box, now xorg wont work | 23:03 |
| ascheel | th0r: where if I stick it in the same terminal, its' far easier to reference | 23:04 |
| seanthegeek | can someone help? | 23:04 |
| ascheel | th0r: or some pages, I just want to | it to grep | 23:04 |
| seanthegeek | motherboard* | 23:04 |
| nanotube | ascheel: even if you press "b" while in man page? | 23:04 |
| th0r | ascheel: you know you can search within 'man' | 23:04 |
| nanotube | ascheel: which should scroll back by one page | 23:04 |
| nanotube | ascheel: try also "man man" :) very helpful | 23:05 |
| ascheel | yeah, I know I can search it, but if I'm already back at the CLI out of the man page, I can't re-reference it without going back into man. | 23:05 |
| ascheel | sometimes I just want it in my terminal windows as part of the scrollback | 23:05 |
| nanotube | ascheel: well, then you're good to go with |cat :) | 23:05 |
| ascheel | :) | 23:05 |
| nanotube | well i'm outtahere. ttyl y'all. | 23:06 |
| emil1111 | coffeebean[2]: : when I try downloading wubi it gets stuck trying to download the .iso. FAQ says it'e behind a firewall and to DL the iso myself, which I did | 23:06 |

| tim1 | Hey, I have a problem with my headphones not working | 23:06 |
| H8sMikeMoore | emil1111 - just burn the iso image to a disk and use it that way | 23:06 |
| wesley | hello guys, have a dell dimension 8300 with an audigy 2 zs, and ubuntu wont play audio, but it did...?? | 23:07 |
| emil1111 | gjl: yes I tried installing from live boot that and got some I/O error with a comment "probably because of cd error or hard drive error" | 23:07 |
| tim1 | My headphones don't work but my speakers do | 23:07 |
| H8sMikeMoore | emil111- make sure you burn the disc as slow as possible | 23:07 |
| H8sMikeMoore | tim1 - it might be a driver issue | 23:07 |
| emil1111 | H8sMikeMoore: I'll try burning a new cd and doing it slow | 23:07 |
| emil1111 | ill get back here after I try those things | 23:08 |

| H8sMikeMoore | wesley - i garuntee you dont have your driver installed. goto the forums and ask someone for help | 23:17 |
| ascheel | wesley: I use it for my primary workstations both at work and for gaming at home. /shrug | 23:17 |
| IdleOne | well then I say we all drop ubuntu and go to another os | 23:17 |

| H8sMikeMoore | it mightbe out of date | 23:17 |
| ascheel | lol easy there killer. People are trying to help you out. | 23:18 |
| wesley | ohh, and every once in a great while ubuntu makes noise through these speakers, then it does not | 23:18 |

| H8sMikeMoore | are you talking about ubuntu or the sound driver | 23:18 |
| mujo | I have a problem booting after an update to 2.6.27-14, it cant find the root device and falls back on busybox, I tried rootdelay=90 and it doesnt work | 23:18 |
| H8sMikeMoore | because most drivers for ubuntu do not come on cd, you must download them | 23:18 |
| ascheel | wesley: Which Ubuntu you on? | 23:19 |
| wesley | creative has no driver for ubuntu. or linux for that matter. i installed the driver myself, followed instructions on ubuntu.com | 23:19 |
| H8sMikeMoore | wesley, go into the terminal time alsamixer and make sure everything is turned up. | 23:19 |
| H8sMikeMoore | ubuntu comes with volume down by default | 23:19 |
| H8sMikeMoore | i dont know why | 23:19 |
| H8sMikeMoore | also, wesley, chances are someone made a driver for your hardware that isnt employed by creative | 23:20 |
| wesley | yeah, i tried that too, for some odd reason it only shows pulse audio instead of the audigy, and only gives me 1 mixer channel which always says off, and i dont know how to turn it on there. i did use ubuntu's mixer audio volume program and went into properties and set everything to maximum, after turning all oprtions on | 23:20 |
| H8sMikeMoore | do it in the terminal | 23:21 |
| wesley | lol | 23:21 |
| H8sMikeMoore | just try the terminal way first before we rule it out | 23:21 |
| wesley | i just did, but ok | 23:21 |
| kassah | is there a good repo for getting more current copies of php and/or subversion? | 23:21 |
| wesley | yeah pulseaudio only, 1 chennel only | 23:22 |
| ascheel | kassah: my advice is to ask in #php and #svn where to get their most recent releasses. | 23:22 |
| H8sMikeMoore | if you go into the terminal and type alsamixer what do you see | 23:22 |
| wesley | HBsMikeMoore, are you talking to me? i typed in the infor twice already...?? but, once again, pulseaudio, 1 channnel only | 23:23 |

| ascheel | mlissner: I have a stock of puppies in my garage to kick around to help me with that. | 23:26 |
| wesley | but it's an image, how do i use images with ubuntu's paste binm | 23:26 |
| ascheel | it's not an image. It's text. Select it and copy it. | 23:26 |
| mlissner | ascheel: you've clearly thought of everything. Wait. You can't kick puppies around! | 23:27 |
| ascheel | mlissner: sure you can. Just not great dane puppies. | 23:27 |

| ruben23 | hi after i install samba on my ubuntu desktop what step should i do to make file sharing with windows client and also access windows share storage.. | 23:27 |
| wesley | (alsamixer)? | 23:27 |

| ascheel | wesley, copy the entire screen. Just highlight it like you would any text. Right-click and copy | 23:27 |
| H8sMikeMoore | ascheel - i have a feeling wesley is trying to change his audio properties with a graphical user interface as opposed to the terminal and its causing a problem | 23:27 |
| wesley | ok | 23:27 |
| mlissner | wesley: drag across it, and then it's control + shift + c | 23:27 |
| ascheel | H8sMikeMoore: I'm kinda thinking so, too | 23:27 |
| wesley | no, i am using alsamixer via the terminal. | 23:28 |
| H8sMikeMoore | ok | 23:28 |
| mlissner | H8sMikeMoore: I have a feeling pulseaudio is involved somehow. | 23:28 |
| H8sMikeMoore | its possible | 23:28 |

| Cerrdor | flashplugin-installer is already the newest version. | 23:36 |
| mlissner | wesley: It's likely more complicated than you realize. Most of the drivers for windows are made by the manufacturer. Those for linux are often not made at all. So if the card is standards compliant, it will usually work. if not, it has to be reverse engineered....and may not work. | 23:36 |
| IdleOne | Cerrdor, you restarded the browser? | 23:37 |
| A4O_91 | pff please link google no free valve for linux ... | 23:37 |
| mlissner | wesley: in any case, lack of a driver isn't exactly ubuntu's fault - it's the card manufacturer's (more than likely) | 23:37 |
| wesley | the funky thing is this audigy card works on dsl 4.10 even, dsl! | 23:37 |

| mlissner | wesley: But I digress. | 23:38 |
| mlissner | H8sMikeMoore: Do you know if in fact he should set the thing to pulseaudio? | 23:38 |
| H8sMikeMoore | mlissner - i have no idea ive only ever used alsa | 23:38 |
| wesley | yeah, as a matter of fact it did, and then didnt. i actually upgraded because days of searching and beggin for help from peoiple got me know wheree, but i can boot to my cute little dsl mini disk and i have sound | 23:38 |

| H8sMikeMoore | wesley - just to try it, see what happens when you boot to a live cd of the latest ubuntu | 23:39 |
| ascheel | A4O_91: that's assuming there is in fact no linux client available | 23:39 |
| mlissner | H8sMikeMoore, wesley: That might be overkill. | 23:39 |
| H8sMikeMoore | if it works on the live cd, then that means something in ubuntu got corrupted | 23:39 |
| wesley | that doesnt work, did that already, but if i mess around with it some then i can get sound, kinda, sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesnt. | 23:40 |
| mlissner | wesley: Tell us again what version of ubuntu you're running | 23:40 |
| wesley | dsl is able to play sound out of it using the ich5 driver, but it cant play anything but audio files on xmms | 23:40 |
| === root is now known as Guest30662 | ||
| mlissner | wesley: What are you trying to play besides audio files? | 23:41 |
| mlissner | wesley: Cause that kinda sounds like your card is working. | 23:41 |
| wesley | youtube footage, hulu stuff, all audio. | 23:41 |
| wesley | ohh and ubuntu cant even play audio filesd | 23:41 |
| mlissner | wesley: You lost me. Didn't you just say it CAN play audio files on xmms? | 23:41 |
| NickDeNeger | ascheel: One last question, when you switch to another screen with you mouse you still see the mouse pointer at the point where you left the other screen? | 23:42 |
| ascheel | the livecd can, mlissner | 23:42 |
| H8sMikeMoore | wesley - what program do you use to play audio (vlc etc) | 23:42 |
| wesley | no dsl, er "damn small linux" can | 23:42 |
| mlissner | wesley, ascheel: Ah. | 23:42 |

| wesley | i got one of those cutsy little business card cd's and thats sadly one of the best distro's iive ever seen | 23:42 |
| mlissner | wesley: what do you see if you pull up Preferences > Sound? And what version of Ubuntu are you running? | 23:43 |
| ruben23 | hi after i install samba on my ubuntu desktop what step should i do to make file sharing with windows client and also access windows share storage.. | 23:43 |
| ito | alguien me puede ayudar a configurar pidgin, gracias | 23:43 |
| H8sMikeMoore | I would like to see what happens if he opens an audio playing program through the terminal and then tries to play audio | 23:43 |
| IdleOne | !es | ito | 23:43 |
| ubottu | ito: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 23:43 |
| ito | ok | 23:44 |
| IdleOne | de nada | 23:44 |
| wesley | sorry | 23:44 |
| H8sMikeMoore | ok | 23:44 |
| H8sMikeMoore | wesley what program do u use to play aduio files | 23:45 |
| wesley | i see the audigy 2 zs and the audigy multi channel setup on all 5 spots | 23:45 |
| mlissner | wesley: Is that what you see when you open the Preferences > Sound? | 23:45 |
| docgnome | anyone able to get adobe air running in 64 bit ubuntu? | 23:45 |
| Chessguy | hi | 23:45 |
| wesley | yes | 23:45 |
| mlissner | wesley: OK, so you're on ubuntu 9.04, right? | 23:46 |
| wesley | nope, but almost, i actually have the upgrade running now, i am trying everything. currently 8.10 | 23:46 |
| Chessguy | I have samba share working for my ntfs partition of my desktop and laptop so I can access My Documents, etc. I was wondering if there was a way to set it up so these folders automatically sync with each other.......grsync give an error | 23:47 |
| mlissner | OK. Well, we shouldn't really get too far down the help road if you're in the middle of an upgrade because that's going to be tearing your computer apart and putting it back together. | 23:47 |
| Immo_Phagg | What's crappening? | 23:47 |
| Chessguy | Immo_Phagg: pewp | 23:47 |
| mlissner | wesley: Nevertheless, do you have the test buttons in the sound preferences dialog? | 23:47 |
| Bow2`Shino | cant get youtube videos to play audio on my usb Headset. Plz help :3 | 23:48 |
| wesley | hmm, yeah, if set everything either alsa or oss, it makes a noise, but no sounds ever play. | 23:48 |
| mlissner | wesley: You mean the test buttons make noise? This is a good thing, if so. | 23:48 |
| wesley | yes | 23:48 |
| Retardedpope | the upgrade button in the update manager is gone and I want it back.... | 23:48 |
| mlissner | wesley: what about if you set them to pulseaudio? | 23:49 |
| wesley | they make a high pitched "boop" like noise | 23:49 |
| H8sMikeMoore | bow2 - have you installed the flash player? | 23:49 |
| Retardedpope | I want to upgrade | 23:49 |
| wesley | nothing | 23:49 |
| docgnome | anybody? adobe air on 64bit ubuntu? | 23:49 |
| wesley | but i never rebooted after doing so | 23:49 |
| mlissner | wesley: Hmmm...that's interesting. Put them on alsa then. | 23:49 |
| H8sMikeMoore | wesley what type of audio files are u trying to play? | 23:50 |
| mlissner | wesley: the history of sound technology in linux is OSS > ALSA > Pulseaudio. DSL probably worked because it was using OSS or ALSA, not the latest. | 23:50 |

| mlissner | I'm going to throw my hat in the ring for assistance. Does anybody have any ideas how to get banshee to work? It suddenly stopped loading for me today. Running banshee --debug yields no answers. | 23:51 |
| kiheikev | having trouble with installing mplayer-mozilla and 8.04 hardy heron | 23:51 |
| wesley | currently nothing, but i wasa trying to use ich5, since thats what the diagnoses tool tells me i got, if i reboot after everything is set to alsa, i can get that high pitched sound to play | 23:52 |
| === chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
| kiheikev | I get depends errors | 23:52 |
| mlissner | When I start banshee, it gets about halfway through loading the GUI, then gets stuck. | 23:52 |
| Ogre | Guys, I'm really new to Ubuntu, and I'm trying to get the Desktop Cube in compiz to work, and I set the Unfold hot key to <Control>z but when I press that nothing happens | 23:52 |
| wesley | should i come back after 9.04 is installed? | 23:52 |
| mlissner | wesley: It'd be wise, yeah. You're trying to debug a moving target otherwise. | 23:53 |
| === carlos is now known as Guest92938 | ||
| Ogre | but if I change the workstations from 2x2 to 4x1 it works, but it's not a cube, it shows them all next to each other | 23:53 |
| IdleOne | wesley, would be best to try and resolve the issue once the os is installed | 23:53 |
| mlissner | Banshee help? Anybody? | 23:53 |
| wesley | ok thanx, ill be back unless the update solves it, (crossed fingers :P) | 23:53 |
| Chessguy | I have samba share working for my ntfs partition of my desktop and laptop so I can access My Documents, etc. I was wondering if there was a way to set it up so these folders automatically sync with each other.......grsync give an error | 23:53 |
| Retardedpope | does the upgrade method for ubuntu server work for ubuntu desktop as well? | 23:53 |
| mlissner | wesley: Great. Fingers crossed here too. | 23:53 |
| quietshaman | Good eve all... major naive newbie (to Ubuntu) here. Is anyone available that could answer a question or two? | 23:54 |
| kiaas_ | Retardedpope, you mean sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade? | 23:54 |
| Mka | Just installed Ubuntu 9.04, I cant get the 3D compiz cube working. | 23:54 |
| ascheel | !ask | quietshaman | 23:54 |
| ubottu | quietshaman: 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. :-) | 23:54 |
| kiaas_ | Retardedpope, because if so, yes. | 23:54 |
| Chessguy | Mka: under add/remove programs search "ccsm" install that | 23:54 |
| Retardedpope | kiaas_: no, the do-release-upgrade | 23:54 |
| Ogre | Guys, I'm really new to Ubuntu, and I'm trying to get the Desktop Cube in compiz to work, and I set the Unfold hot key to <Control>z but when I press that nothing happens. but if I change the workstations from 2x2 to 4x1 it works, but it's not a cube, it shows them all next to each other | 23:55 |
| Chessguy | Mka: then configure it from that | 23:55 |
| kiheikev | Can someone help me with sound on a 8.04 heron install? | 23:55 |
| Retardedpope | I'm trying to upgrade to 9.04 | 23:55 |
| Berzerker | Retardedpope, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 23:55 |
| IdleOne | Retardedpope, dist-upgrade | 23:55 |
| Mka | Chessguy: installed ccsm and enabled 3D cube from it but it does not work. other features of compiz do work | 23:55 |
| Chessguy | Mka: i'm out :P | 23:56 |
| Retardedpope | I haven't used this computer for a while and know it seams like I'm gonna be using it again, so I want to upgrade it | 23:56 |
| Chessguy | Mka: middle clicked? | 23:56 |
| quietshaman | well....I wiped out my network icon from the panel on a new install of ububtu. I now don't know how to get it bck...you know the little green icon that lets you view available networks and wireless connections?? Help | 23:56 |
| Chessguy | and drag | 23:56 |

| Berzerker | quietshaman, do you have other notifications show up? | 23:57 |
| Immo_Phagg | I have been banned in #windows, and #hardware, can someone help me get back in | 23:57 |
| Immo_Phagg | Who can help | 23:57 |
| Berzerker | Immo_Phagg, no one, go away. | 23:57 |
| IdleOne | Immo_Phagg, no we cant | 23:57 |
| docgnome | Immo_Phagg: if you got banned you probably deserved it. | 23:57 |
| Immo_Phagg | You can and you will | 23:57 |
| Berzerker | ugh | 23:58 |
| Immo_Phagg | No I didn't I wasn't even n | 23:58 |
| Berzerker | someone ban him please. | 23:58 |
| Immo_Phagg | Why | 23:58 |
| IdleOne | Immo_Phagg, try #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:58 |
| quietshaman | yes...all else is ok. I accidently hit "delete from panel" | 23:58 |
| Immo_Phagg | I am already there | 23:58 |
| === am4zin is now known as amazin | ||
| ascheel | Immo_Phagg: do you need help on using Ubuntu? If not, your questions won't be able to get any answers in here. | 23:58 |
| Mka | Chessguy: Aaah!, I got it to work on ccsm, was bit panicking. cheers. I'm out. | 23:58 |
| Berzerker | quietshaman, well the network icon should be attached to your other notifications, so if you removed that, you should have removed other notifications | 23:59 |
| nacho__ | how can i change kubuntu to ubuntu??? i think that is the cause that my laptop gets hot and shuts down | 23:59 |
| Chessguy | Mka: awesome bye! :) | 23:59 |
| docgnome | nacho__: you can install the ubuntu-desktop package | 23:59 |
| docgnome | iirc | 23:59 |
| fryfrog | Anyone know anything about screen rotation with intel driver? | 23:59 |
| quietshaman | maybe I removed all notifications....I have battery status indicator, screen brightness widget, etc. | 23:59 |
| lucky | nacho__: you can install the ubuntu-desktop package, however it is very unlikely that it is the cause of your laptop's overheating. | 23:59 |
| fryfrog | I've tried Option "Rotate" with "CW" and "right" with no luck :/ | 23:59 |
