| edbian | realityiswhere: Good idea! | 00:00 |
| BrianE | !root | 00:00 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 00:00 |
| BrianE | Loving the reference lol | 00:00 |
| Giddorah | thiebaude: I couldn't find it in my bios tho :( | 00:00 |

| nosek_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/254792/ how can I make, so it will also boot from NTFS partition? | 00:04 |
| IdleOne | nosek, you want to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and put your windows at the top of the list. but please be careful, editing that file can make your system unbootable. ( make a backup of menu.lst) | 00:05 |

| lstarnes | Giddorah: to find your root partition: mount | grep "on /" | 00:30 |
| mib_mib | let me try that | 00:30 |
| edbian | Giddorah: "grub-install" looks in /boot/grub/menu.lst when it runs. Right now you are running the live CD. There is no /boot/grub/menu.lst. You have to mount your ubuntu partition on your hard drive | 00:31 |
| lstarnes | Giddorah: you could also try mount | grep "on /boot" | 00:31 |
| majuk | koolkat: an OS-driven filesystem of sorts. | 00:31 |
| majuk | koolkat: But that's not really all that accurate to describe it that way. | 00:31 |
| Giddorah | edbian: Right, I have to mount my ubuntu partition | 00:31 |
| Giddorah | edbian: Is there a simple way to do that? (a) | 00:31 |
| edbian | Giddorah: Than you use the "-root-directory=/path/to/ubuntu mount" look at "man grub-install" | 00:31 |

| majuk | lstarnes, koolkat: Yea, that's it. | 00:32 |
| lstarnes | poutine: somewhat | 00:32 |
| lstarnes | koolkat: it's used for managing partitions | 00:33 |
| koolkat | majuk: is better than regular filesystem formatting? | 00:33 |
| poutine | it just puts the block limits and partition table in the care of the OS rather than the disk's partition table eh | 00:33 |
| majuk | koolkat: The formatting is used on top of LVM. | 00:33 |
| lstarnes | koolkat: it's not filesystem formatting | 00:33 |
| like | http://pastebin.com/m14fcae6 any ? | 00:34 |

| BrianE | frede: 99% of users will be fine without one, though if you're paranoid there are some commercial products out there | 00:35 |

| sebsebseb | frede: at this time you don't need a virus scanner, well unless your running a email server, and so have a reason to scan for Windows viruses, which only infect Windows | 00:39 |
| majuk | poutine: Vulnerability != Virus | 00:39 |
| lstarnes | poutine: that's because ubuntu has more third-party applications installed by default | 00:39 |
| poutine | majuk, vulnerabilities lead to worms, which are by definition, viruses | 00:40 |
| lstarnes | poutine: it's not a virus unless it replicates and propagates | 00:40 |

| mib_mib | majuk: so i have an 'extended' partition, and inside that i have the swap, so do i do swapon /dev/<extended partition> or /dev/<swap inside extended> | 00:46 |
| sebsebseb | BrianE: did I actsaully boot from the Live CD, well whatever | 00:46 |

| xenoterracide_ | hell I'll do it later this shouldn't need rebooting tonight | 00:48 |
| MsMaco | xenoterracide_: if you enable ufw you can put iptables restore syntax in /etc/ufw/before.rules | 00:48 |

| losher | uninverted: you can try editing /var/lib/dpkg/status and remove the timidity paragraph. Then dpkg should forget all about it. Then reinstall it, then (finally) remove it... Make sure you backup a copy of the file before you edit it | 01:08 |
| legend2440 | mib_mib: if you do have to edit the resume file. then in terminal type sudo update-initramfs -u so change takes effect | 01:08 |

| sphinx | #linux | 01:31 |
| majuk | eboyjr: Resolve it yourself and use the dereferrenced IP? | 01:31 |
| coz_ | sphinx, yep just type /join #linux | 01:31 |
| mssever | Dr_Willis: Oh, I see. I guess they need to trim the fat, then. | 01:32 |
| coz_ | mssever, there is a karmic daily build of UNR iso but it download with errors and it is also biger than a cd | 01:33 |
| eboyjr | majuk: How can I do that? For now I just want to use a direct connection, but it seems like it is still using the proxy | 01:33 |
| coz_ | sphinx, are you using xchat? | 01:33 |
| Bsims | pidgin file transfers do not work... any ideas? | 01:33 |
| mssever | coz_: Size isn't important since I plan to write to flash, but I prefer stable over alpha | 01:34 |
| coz_ | mssever, if you want to try UNR open syanptic pacakge manager hit Search and type Remix | 01:34 |
| professor_choas | anyone got pidgin working with google chat | 01:34 |
| coz_ | mssever, you can install UNR through synaptic | 01:34 |
| majuk | eboyjr: You just totally lost me. I thought you *needed* to use the proxy and it *wasn't* working? Now you *don't* want to use the proxy and it *is* working? | 01:34 |
| Pseudo_Bob | How do I check whether or not my video card drivers are installed? | 01:34 |
| mssever | coz_: That won't help me install on a netbook, though... Or will it? | 01:34 |
| coz_ | mssever, I couldnt find stable UNR iso just the karmic one | 01:35 |
| === Odin is now known as th0r | ||
| coz_ | mssever, mm well UNR isnt going to be much smaller it is just running the gui over gnome as far as I know | 01:35 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, what kind of gfx card? | 01:35 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: An ATI Radeon x300 | 01:36 |
| coz_ | professor_choas, how about this http://lifehacker.com/260087/set-up-google-talk-with-gaim-er-pidgin | 01:36 |
| [criipt] | !find import | 01:36 |
| ubottu | Found: bzr-cvsps-import, bzr-fastimport, moblin-media-import, mythimport, openoffice.org-pdfimport (and 1 others) | 01:36 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | what other browsers are available for linux | 01:36 |
| Jason2gs | How can I 'fake a webcam', so that I stream a 'webcam' to someone/something, though instead of a webcam feed, it's a video. | 01:36 |
| mssever | coz_: I've never run it, but I expected it to be trimmed down a bit considering that netbooks have less power than other machines. But maybe I'm wrong | 01:36 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | that dont eat the piss out of my processor | 01:36 |
| Flare183 | !browsers | MySecondChoiceIS | 01:36 |
| ubottu | MySecondChoiceIS: Browsers available for Ubuntu: Firefox (GTK, Gecko engine), Konqueror (KDE/Qt, KHTML engine), Epiphany (GTK, Gecko engine), Dillo (GTK), w3m (terminal-based), Links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !man page), edbrowse (command-line), Opera (Qt, proprietary) | 01:36 |
| eboyjr | majuk: Well sorry.. I was thinking I didn't want to use it, but now I know I need to. How can I get apt to work with my proxy? I have almost no idea how proxies work and how to dereference and etc | 01:36 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, lsmod | grep fglrx | 01:36 |
| Jason2gs | That was supposed to be a question mark at the end, sorry. | 01:37 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | what is a fast browser? for ubuntu? | 01:37 |
| eboyjr | MySecondChoiceIS: Midori and Chromium | 01:37 |
| coz_ | mssever, no it really isnt trimmed at all from what I can tell in fact it slowed down the system a bit actually.... there are other netbook linux like crunchbang linux base on ubuntu and openbox which I have installed on one of my desktops here | 01:37 |
| Dr_Willis | MySecondChoiceIS: firefox 3, 3.5 , opera, seamonkey, Kde's, chrome. | 01:37 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Doesn't return anything. | 01:37 |
| eboyjr | MySecondChoiceIS: Firefox can work just fine | 01:37 |
| Dr_Willis | MySecondChoiceIS: and perhaps some others i overlooked :) | 01:37 |
| coz_ | mssever, ` crunchbang is definitly trimmed down | 01:37 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, indeed. No drivers loaded then. | 01:38 |
| gabangie | hellooo | 01:38 |
| Viss_ | I've just upgraded an ubuntu installation from dappter to jaunty, and the primary disk (/dev/sda) has been partitioned using extended partitions. It contains /dev/sda1, which has sda5 and sda6 inside of it. I need to know how to tell grub to boot from that. At the moment I have "root hd(0,4)" and "root = /dev/sda5" in the boot parameters, but it drops to a busybox shell. I've also tried swapping it to hd(0,0) and root=/dev/sda1 and sda6, but it doesn | 01:38 |
| Viss_ | t seem to work. | 01:38 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, an easy way to install drivers for Ubuntu for nvidia or ATi is to install Envy | 01:38 |
| coz_ | mssever, http://crunchbanglinux.org/ | 01:38 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | No firfox sucks just fine | 01:38 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | its incredibly slow | 01:38 |
| gabangie | i provide help desk for windows and mac , any body know someway to provide ubuntu sopport? | 01:38 |
| th0r | MySecondChoiceIS: links2 | 01:39 |
| trevorj | gabangie: bomgar | 01:39 |
| insaan | Pseudo, install it from "System > Administration > Hardware Drivers" | 01:39 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | I feel like compared to windows everything runs slower on ubuntu? | 01:39 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | why is that? | 01:39 |
| Dr_Willis | MySecondChoiceIS: thats debateable.. but go try the others if you want. Opera, chrome, or some other FF variant. | 01:39 |
| coz_ | mssever, crunchbang is an iso or a .img I used the .iso here | 01:39 |
| gabangie | like crossloop or teamviewer | 01:39 |
| Dr_Willis | MySecondChoiceIS: i find my linux system MUCH faster then windows. | 01:39 |
| eboyjr | MySecondChoiceIS: Look how to install chromium-browser from ppa | 01:39 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Alright. Well, I tried getting downloading the driver on the ATI site, but for some reason you can only download the 64 bit version. | 01:39 |
| mssever | coz_: I've heard of crunchbang, but I'm not a fan of their environment. Though perhaps I shold look at it and install what I want on top of that base | 01:39 |
| gabangie | without fowarding any port ! | 01:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Google has their own repos for the linux chrome browser now. | 01:39 |
| Flare183 | MySecondChoiceIS: haha Linux crushes Winblows anyday | 01:39 |
| comrade_tuttle | Hey I just started using Ubuntu today and I'm having a bit of issues with the terminal and with sound. Could some one possibly help me out with these? | 01:39 |
| coz_ | mssever, however if you are planning to also run compiz you cant use crunchbang | 01:39 |
| trevorj | gabangie: I work at a technology firm, we use bomgar because you can remote into mac, linux, or windows PCs | 01:39 |
| Flare183 | comrade_tuttle: Explain. | 01:39 |
| eboyjr | comrade_tuttle: What is your problem so everyone can see | 01:39 |
| trevorj | gabangie: without forwarding ports, or any of that bs | 01:39 |
| mssever | coz_: I definitely want compiz, if my netbook can handle it | 01:39 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, you can find it in Synaptic or install via: sudo apt-get install envyng-core | 01:40 |
| coz_ | mssever, I like both openbox and fluxbox so this wasnt difficult to get used to other than no compiz | 01:40 |
| gabangie | trevorj, great , is it fast? | 01:40 |
| mssever | coz_: for me, compiz is a great usability enhancement | 01:40 |
| trevorj | gabangie: is your internet connection fast? | 01:40 |
| coz_ | mssever, well even ubuntu UNR suggests turning off compiz because of possible conflict with clutter | 01:40 |
| mdg | comrade_tuttle: type "alasmixer" in the terminal | 01:40 |
| comrade_tuttle | Sound will only work with media files, not on any program or web, and with the terminal when i try to change directory it says that the folder/file doesn't exists | 01:40 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, that should give you a driver that matches your architecture - it might not be the most up to date version as ATi's site but should at least be 32 bit to match your system | 01:40 |
| gabangie | yes | 01:40 |
| mssever | coz_: clutter is the UNR desktop? | 01:40 |
| trevorj | gabangie: then ye | 01:40 |
| ^Phantom^ | how many pixels x pixels is 2400dpi? | 01:40 |
| gabangie | i own isp | 01:40 |
| trevorj | gabangie: s | 01:40 |
| coz_ | mssever, ubuntu UNR has its own slight animations | 01:40 |
| mdg | use the arrow keys to move left/right and up/down to adjust settings | 01:40 |
| Dr_Willis | UNR 's special interface and compiz does not play well together. | 01:41 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Alright, it's downloading. You're the person who's been able to suggest anything :O | 01:41 |
| trevorj | ^Phantom^: dpi != resolution | 01:41 |
| Dr_Willis | but i disalbe that UNR special interface anyway | 01:41 |
| Flare183 | comrade_tuttle: Here's the thing with the terminal, there is no spaces. You have to use it like this: file\ name | 01:41 |
| coz_ | mssever, no clutter are the libraries used to handle the gui and movements although not taken to full capability for sure | 01:41 |
| comrade_tuttle | alasmixer: command not found | 01:41 |
| Flare183 | comrade_tuttle: sudo apt-get install alsamixer | 01:41 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, heh, I'm sure many in here could help. :) | 01:41 |
| detrix | any ideas why I lose compizfusion. I get it all set up and working, and about 20min later its disabled. | 01:41 |
| mneptok | comrade_tuttle: spell it correctly | 01:41 |
| gabangie | trevorj, do i have to buy the product? | 01:41 |
| trevorj | gabangie: yes | 01:41 |
| eboyjr | hi | 01:41 |
| mdg | oops alsamixer | 01:41 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: lsmod | grep fglrx still doesn't return anything. | 01:41 |
| gabangie | or is it for free? | 01:41 |
| trevorj | gabangie: nope, not free. | 01:41 |
| Flare183 | detrix: It crashed on ya. | 01:41 |
| trevorj | gabangie: but it works. | 01:42 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, right right, did you run Envy? | 01:42 |
| gabangie | how does it work? like crossloop? | 01:42 |
| trevorj | gabangie: crossloop is crap | 01:42 |
| Pseudo_Bob | Pff, yeah of course! | 01:42 |
| coz_ | mssever, you could try "slax" I am not sure if compiz can be used for that netbook release | 01:42 |
| Pseudo_Bob | No... | 01:42 |
| comrade_tuttle | its telling my apt-: command not found | 01:42 |
| trevorj | gabangie: logmein is just as bad | 01:42 |
| ^Phantom^ | let's say i scanned 8.5 by 11 inch thing @ 2400dpi... | 01:42 |
| mssever | well, my downloaded has completed, so I'm going to reboot and see if my current iteration has yielded any results. Thanks for the help, everyone. | 01:42 |
| Flare183 | comrade_tuttle: sudo apt-get | 01:42 |
| Flare183 | not : | 01:42 |
| Dr_Willis | mssever: you can enable compiz on the UNR. but it can conflict with the special UNR interface. | 01:42 |
| mssever | coz_: slax...Now there's a blast from the past | 01:42 |
| gabangie | trevorj, i saw nomachine has good performace too | 01:43 |
| mssever | coz_: slackware was the first distro I used, years ago | 01:43 |
| trevorj | gabangie: there really isn't anything free for that sort of thing that I'm aware of | 01:43 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Just "envy" doesn't do anything. How do I run it? | 01:43 |
| coz_ | mssever, it is a dereiviative of slackware for netbooks | 01:43 |
| comrade_tuttle | still telling me command not found | 01:43 |
| jiohdi | someone told me not to use sudo su... but I forget what they told me to use instead....? | 01:43 |
| gabangie | i just read that i did nt try it yet | 01:43 |
| coz_ | dreivative | 01:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Pseudo_Bob: try envy<tab> to find the proper command | 01:43 |
| trevorj | gabangie: nomachine has good performance, yes, but you still need to install a client | 01:43 |
| Flare183 | jiohdi: YOu mean sudo -i? | 01:43 |
| mneptok | comrade_tuttle: open a terminal. type "alsamixer" (no quotes) | 01:43 |
| Dr_Willis | jiohdi: sudo -i or sudo -s | 01:43 |
| trevorj | gabangie: with bomgar, you don't. They just go to your website, run a small ~100k app | 01:43 |
| mneptok | comrade_tuttle: LOOK at the spelling | 01:43 |
| trevorj | gabangie: and you're in | 01:43 |
| jiohdi | Flare183: no it was something starting with a g | 01:43 |
| Dr_Willis | !tab | comrade_tuttle | 01:43 |
| ubottu | comrade_tuttle: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 01:43 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, well, lets give you a GUI instead of just text interface, do: sudo apt-get install envyng-qt | 01:44 |
| jaysonsantos | Hello people, anyone know the name of that program which get a mp3 hash and auto identify it's id3 tags ? | 01:44 |
| trevorj | gabangie: plus the client works on mac, linux, or windows as well =) | 01:44 |
| Dr_Willis | !sudi | jiohdi | 01:44 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sudi | 01:44 |
| Dr_Willis | !sudo | jiohdi | 01:44 |
| ubottu | jiohdi: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 01:44 |
| gabangie | trevorj, great that sounds great | 01:44 |
| comrade_tuttle | unfortunetly I'm getting the same results | 01:44 |
| coz_ | here is a list of the more common netbook distributions http://www.internetling.com/2009/02/14/top-5-netbook-linux-distributions/ | 01:44 |
| mneptok | comrade_tuttle: if you want sound from Flash and other web stuff, quit all running media apps before opening the web browser. | 01:44 |
| jiohdi | !gksu | 01:44 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 01:44 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Oh yeah, everybody look at the newb who needs a GUI because he can't handle the text interface | 01:44 |
| gabangie | trevorj, does it use some password or something? | 01:44 |
| trevorj | gabangie: you login from anywhere via a client | 01:45 |
| trevorj | gabangie: with your username and password | 01:45 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, looool ;) | 01:45 |
| jiohdi | Dr_Willis: thanks | 01:45 |
| trevorj | gabangie: you can have as many users as you want, but you can only have as many logged in as you have licenses | 01:45 |
| trevorj | gabangie: they run about a grand a pop | 01:45 |
| Flare183 | comrade_tuttle: sudo aptitude install <package name> | 01:45 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, until you have a good handle on the shell, GUI is your friend :) | 01:45 |
| Flare183 | [t0rc]: That's true. | 01:45 |
| trevorj | gabangie: this is per-user btw, you can have be remoted into as many client pcs as you want | 01:46 |
| Dr_Willis | It pays to spend the time and LEARN the shell ! :0 | 01:46 |
| gabangie | trevorj, usually i dont have more than 2 users at the same time | 01:46 |
| DigitalKiwi | cli > gui | 01:46 |
| Flare183 | Dr_Willis: That's true, as well. | 01:46 |
| trevorj | gabangie: nah, I mean it's per helpdesk member | 01:46 |
| trevorj | gabangie: not per client PC | 01:46 |
| DigitalKiwi | mneptok: hi | 01:46 |
| gabangie | trevorj, how much does it cost? | 01:46 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Eh, whatever. It's downloading now. Looks like it'll take a while... | 01:46 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, not to mention, using GUI's until you're used to the shell will protect you from doing some nasty things which are easily done from shell | 01:47 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, it's only about 10MB. Not a biggie | 01:47 |
| trevorj | gabangie: about a grand a pop iirc, with all support and updates in the future included | 01:47 |
| mneptok | DigitalKiwi: heya | 01:47 |
| comrade_tuttle | where can i download ALASmixer. I do not believe i have it | 01:47 |
| trevorj | gabangie: it runs on a self-contained server | 01:47 |
| trevorj | gabangie: they ship you a rackmount | 01:47 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Oh, duh. I have some podcasts downloading as well as the entire discography of Muse. | 01:47 |
| trevorj | gabangie: =) | 01:47 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Not that I have sound or anything. | 01:48 |

| DigitalKiwi | Dr_Willis: I wrote a program for uploading text files to one of a few different pastebin sites, it has an option --vista which asks a random number of times (between 1-10) if you are sure you want to upload in a number of different ways | 01:52 |
| bazhang | poutine, dont spam here | 01:52 |
| JoshStrobl | yea | 01:52 |
| jiohdi | ok, the remote server says its running, but when I go from my other desktop to try to view it... it does not show up in the server list and when I put in the address manually, it says it closed | 01:52 |

| braniff | JoshStrobl: do other programs play sound? | 01:53 |
| CaptainCrook | i want to save my project files in a (restricted directory)... but don't want to run the entire app under root... any other way than the pain of saving in non restricted then acquiring priviledge then copying to the restricted directory? | 01:53 |

| mdg | hypoaller: what kind of modem - windwows soft modem? | 01:53 |
| ^Phantom^ | Talk about overkill O_O | 01:53 |
| sudobash | jiohdi you need to scan the other host with nmap (sudo apt-get install nmap) and see if it is running | 01:53 |
| jiohdi | that is all the info I have... the remote desktop seems to be running but the viewer cannot find it | 01:53 |

| JoshStrobl | bran> what do you mean? | 01:54 |
| sudobash | that will let you know what open ports (remote services) are open | 01:54 |
| hackulator | CaptainCrook: you can either run as root or change permissions on the directory | 01:54 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, XD they might be a bit upside-down however ;) | 01:54 |
| Flare183 | olaf: Yup | 01:54 |
| DigitalKiwi | http://cb.vu/unixtoolbox.xhtml useful shell commands =D | 01:54 |
| JoshStrobl | yea | 01:54 |
| majuk | eboyjr: I don't understand what you're trying to do, sorry man. | 01:54 |
| mdg | hypoaller: is it serial port? (I hope so).... | 01:54 |

| JoshStrobl | yet the video itself does | 01:55 |
| ayahuasca | ubuntu sucks! | 01:55 |
| sudobash | well you could do it from server like this nmap -v -v -sT 127.0.0.1 but that is just going to tell you what services are open but not seeing if it is viewable from the remote computer because the ports may be blocked or something like that | 01:55 |
| bazhang | blackest_knight1, what does that have to with ubuntu support. dont paste random stuff here | 01:55 |
| hypoaller | mdg: i take it you don't know? | 01:55 |
| braniff | JoshStrobl: do you know how to check your mixer settings? | 01:55 |
| IdleOne | ayahuasca, thank you, move on now | 01:55 |
| Flare183 | ayahuasca: Don't hate. | 01:55 |
| JoshStrobl | omfg | 01:55 |

| braniff | JoshStrobl: omfg? well fuck you then! this is free help dumb motherfucker!!! | 01:56 |
| kismet | hey there | 01:56 |
| JoshStrobl | is it just ubuntu that has problems with this or does kubuntu, xubuntu, etc | 01:56 |

| erika1984 | has anyone else dealt with the problem | 01:56 |
| bazhang | JoshStrobl, stop that | 01:56 |
| kismet | anyone know why i can't download build-dep | 01:56 |
| JoshStrobl | then stfu | 01:56 |
| sudobash | so do nmap -v -v -sT hostip | 01:56 |
| blackest_knight1 | bazhang: totally off topic but when i read it i had to share and its 2 am | 01:57 |
| IdleOne | nErVe, I suggest you wait 10 minutes before asking again | 01:57 |
| hackulator | erika1984: did you install something between the time when ubuntu worked and when it did not or has it just never worked for you? | 01:57 |
| JoshStrobl | stop acting like a dick | 01:57 |
| ubuntu | how do i find out what wireless card i have? | 01:57 |
| comrade_tuttle | I'm really sorry for being a newb here, but could some one pm me with help? I'm getting really lost among the clutter | 01:57 |
| Pici | kismet: What command are you trying? | 01:57 |
| nErVe | IdleOne: people are just arguing on useless stuff than trying to help | 01:57 |
| Flare183 | ubuntu: lspci | grep Network | 01:57 |
| mneptok | comrade_tuttle: quit all media apps. quit the browser. restart the browser. no audio? | 01:57 |
| mdg | ubuntu: at a command line type "lspci" (without quotes) | 01:57 |
| bazhang | blackest_knight1, that's no excuse. #ubuntu-offtopic for chat | 01:57 |
| kismet | Pici: I am trying sudo apt-get install build-dep | 01:58 |
| IdleOne | nErVe, it happens but just because you ask for help doesnt mean anybody knows the answer. please try to be patient | 01:58 |
| kismet | Pici: and i get a E: Couldn't find package build-dep | 01:58 |
| Giddorah | Any grub-experts around for some serious helping me getting my grub to work? :) | 01:58 |
| Pici | kismet: build-dep is not a package... its an argument to apt-get for downloading build dependencies. | 01:58 |
| sudobash | ubuntu: lspci, iwconfig, ifconfig | 01:58 |
| kismet | oh i see | 01:58 |
| ubuntu | ty | 01:58 |
| kismet | nooob :D | 01:58 |
| Pici | kismet: such as: apt-get build-dep packagename | 01:58 |
| mdg | hypoaller: not sure what advice to give you other than go for serial modem | 01:59 |
| hou5ton | I know this involves Studio, but I'm having webcam / sound volume / taking video issues on the regular Jaunty. Would a clean install of Studio maybe fix those things for me? | 01:59 |
| majuk | Giddorah: Please provide details. | 01:59 |
| kismet | thank you Pici | 01:59 |
| jiohdi | sudobash, ok I got the nmap now what? | 01:59 |
| kismet | that solves a lot Pi | 01:59 |
| darth10 | hmmm | 01:59 |
| sudobash | do you have the host ip that you are trying to connect to? | 01:59 |
| blackest_knight1 | aptitude install packagename tends to work well | 01:59 |
| boss_mc | nErVe: your link goes nowhere... | 01:59 |
| sudobash | dont say it | 01:59 |
| sudobash | plug it in here: nmap -v -v -sT hostip | 01:59 |
| jiohdi | sudobash, yes | 01:59 |
| comrade_tuttle | Still lacking sound on everything but movie player and rythmbox | 01:59 |
| Giddorah | majuk: My grub isn't working. It is a new installation, but my grub is severely broken. It wouldn't install from the ubuntu-setup. Refuses to install. And me and a friendly dude in here has tried getting it up and running for 30 minutes now but we hit a wall. Care to take a look? | 01:59 |
| sudobash | instead of hostip put the ip but make sure you type it correctly | 02:00 |
| nErVe | boss_mc: http://scsys.co.uk:8002/paste | 02:00 |
| hypoaller | mdg: k thnx | 02:00 |
| comrade_tuttle | Is there a driver or something i need to get? I'm running a Audigy2z5 soundcard | 02:00 |
| mdg | hypoaller: your welcome - wish I had better news | 02:00 |
| [t0rc] | Giddorah, I often find that issues when getting to the GRUB part are caused by a poorly burned CD. | 02:00 |
| majuk | Giddorah: Please provide details of the PROBLEM, not the circumstances. | 02:00 |
| sudobash | it will bring back all the open ports usually vnc is like 5800 or 5900 - 5910 | 02:00 |
| nErVe | boss_mc: http://scsys.co.uk:8002/32619 | 02:00 |

| boss_mc | nErVe: that goes to a form | 02:00 |
| boss_mc | ah | 02:00 |
| Flare183 | comrade_tuttle: Pm me I might me able to help. | 02:00 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, is it done installing ? | 02:00 |
| mdg | comrade_tuttle: what happens when you turn the sound up via the panel sound icon? | 02:00 |
| nErVe | boss_mc: this will work http://scsys.co.uk:8002/32619 | 02:00 |
| * Flare183 can try anyway | 02:01 | |
| jiohdi | sudobash :Failed to resolve given hostname/IP: 192.168.1.5,jiohdi-bkup.local. Note that you can't use '/mask' AND '1-4,7,100-' style IP ranges | 02:01 |
| hackulator | generally if your install is broken off the bat its a problem with your install media | 02:01 |
| boss_mc | nErVe: nothing obviously wrong with it | 02:01 |
| sudobash | nmap will usually tell you it is vnc (remote desktop) or whatever but that works on port number mapping which you can change the ports | 02:01 |
| wesly | can anyone tell me how to edit the code for a script file | 02:01 |
| sudobash | just try: nmap -v -v -sT 192.168.1.5 | 02:01 |
| Giddorah | majuk: It won't install. I'm quite a newbie, so I can't really explain it. We've set it up to what it should be like, and when I try to run grub-install --root-directory=/media/ubuntu /dev/sdc it just says it can't open /boot/grub/device.map with the 494: =: unexpected operator message | 02:01 |
| Flare183 | wesly: Depends on the type of script file. | 02:01 |
| sudobash | and it will tell you what open ports are there | 02:01 |
| Dr_Willis | wesly: script file is just an ascii file. use whatever text editor you like.. | 02:01 |
| comrade_tuttle | nothing the volume is maxed out on the panel volume control | 02:02 |
| hackulator | wesly: you can use vi FILENAME to open it, or some other editor | 02:02 |
| nErVe | boss_mc: My ubuntu freezes a lot now a days, I have to rebbot to get it workin i tried alt+ctrl_f1 or lt+prnt+k | 02:02 |
| wesly | /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default thats what i need to edit | 02:02 |
| stianhj | Giddorah: why don't you use the graphical installer? | 02:02 |
| Giddorah | stianhj: How do I do that? | 02:02 |
| Lenin_Cat | I get a segment falt when I try to run blender | 02:02 |
| stianhj | Giddorah: which version of Ubuntu are you trying to install? | 02:03 |
| emil111 | Hello. I've been trying for days to install ubuntu butthere is always some problema nd I'm not going to try anymore at the moment. Still curious to try linux though, can anyone recommend me something as close as possible to ubuntu? | 02:03 |
| boss_mc | !reisub | nErVe | 02:03 |
| ubottu | nErVe: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 02:03 |
| Flimflam | sup? | 02:03 |
| Giddorah | stianhj: Newest kubuntu, I'm in live-mode now. With acpi=off :) | 02:03 |
| Dr_Willis | comrade_tuttle: for my Creative Audigy PCI cards in the past.. if i was using the Digital out i had to use the 'alsamixer' controlls and enable some checkbox at the bottom i recall. Ive used audiguy2, and 2zs (internal pci) with no hassles on other machines | 02:03 |
| boss_mc | nErVe: rather than just alt+prnt+k... | 02:03 |
| bergeron | hi! | 02:03 |

| bazhang | emil111, try in ##linux, this is Ubuntu support only. | 02:03 |
| stianhj | Giddorah: just run the installer on the desktop..? | 02:03 |
| bergeron | but can anyone teach me how to set up XDM? | 02:04 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, well if you don't want to spend your time downloading that GUI | 02:04 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, you can just use the shell line to do it all | 02:04 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Also, when I was reading that Shell tutorial you sent me, I found the tab function and got envy running. | 02:04 |
| boss_mc | nErVe: but I cannot help with the freezing other than to send you here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/341363/comments/44 | 02:04 |
| Giddorah | stianhj: It fails on the Grub-Installation step | 02:04 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | lololololol pseudo bob | 02:04 |
| Dr_Willis | emil111: you coudl always test out ubuntu in 'virtualbox' on windows.. or some of the dozen+ very good 'live cd' type disrtos. | 02:04 |
| stianhj | Giddorah: what is the error message? | 02:04 |
| [t0rc] | MySecondChoiceIS, ? | 02:04 |
| nErVe | boss_mc: Suggest me a place where i can take my query | 02:04 |
| Flimflam | I'll soon find out | 02:04 |
| Giddorah | stianhj: Grub failed to install on hd0, this is a serious error | 02:05 |
| Giddorah | stianhj: Or something like that | 02:05 |
| stianhj | Giddorah: are you dual-booting with windows? | 02:05 |
| Giddorah | stianhj: Yes, or I want to | 02:05 |
| boss_mc | nErVe: tbh, you'd be best off asking here in a few hours or tomorrow, you'll need someone with some knowledge to help guide you through some debugging steps | 02:05 |
| Flare183 | I thought it was supposed to be /dev/sda1 | 02:05 |
| Flare183 | or something like that | 02:05 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: I apparently have something running that won't let me install it. | 02:06 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, all right, well then just use the text interface. you did: sudo envyng -t right | 02:06 |
| [t0rc] | ? | 02:06 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Yup. | 02:06 |
| [t0rc] | Pseudo_Bob, right right, that other download you have running, is preventing it | 02:06 |
| nErVe | boss_mc: Thanks buddy will do that.Cheers | 02:06 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Closed that and it didn't work still. Let me try it again | 02:06 |
| stianhj | Giddorah: and rebooting doesn't give you grub? i've had the devices.map error before, but grub still installed | 02:07 |
| Giddorah | stianhj: I get straight into Windows 7 when I reboot | 02:07 |
| Pseudo_Bob | [t0rc]: Same error. Only other things I have running are Firefox, Transmission, and Banshee | 02:07 |

| hackulator | Giddorah: if you need to fix the partitions on your machine I would suggest making a gparted boot cd and fixing them with that | 02:13 |
| Dr_Willis | hullo: err.. you mean the default desktop yousee? or in a file manager? | 02:13 |

| Dr_Willis | hullo: i doubt if thats doable. | 02:14 |
| stianhj | Giddorah: press the Windows button and just type in diskmgmt.msc and enter.. you'll be able to delete partitions from there | 02:14 |

| stianhj | Giddorah: use Windows 7 to remove the partitions | 02:14 |

| cjae | mdg, lsusb sees it now | 02:18 |

| grendal_prime | im reading a huge how to on this..is it much easyer with the ubuntu tools? | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | grendal_prime: you can set up XDMCP where at the gdm login screen on the local box thers a 'xdmcp chooser' and you can pick what machine to log into. | 02:19 |
| mdg | cjae: do you have rhythmbox? | 02:19 |

| grendal_prime | the confussion comes in with just understanding what is the server and what is the client.. | 02:20 |

| ubottu | bobo: Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. | 02:21 |
| grendal_prime | i have a machine at work say for instance...i also have a laptop that has remote access to the same network via a vpn. If i want to vpn to the network at work, then run the apps on my desktop machine from my laptop, the machine at work would be the server and my laptop would be the client correct? | 02:21 |
| Giddorah | Dr_Willis: I typed fdisk /dev/sdc5, it asks for a command. I type "d" and it says that | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Giddorah: you did it wrong.. you dont use /dev/sdc5 you use dev/sdc | 02:21 |
| Giddorah | Dr_Willis: Well, actually I added sudo | 02:21 |
| Giddorah | Oooh | 02:21 |
| Giddorah | Dr_Willis: Sorry about that | 02:21 |

| MySecondChoiceIS | BROWSERS | 02:25 |
| Lenin_Cat | can someone help me =_= | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | jiohdi: its the login screen you use and it has a menu. | 02:25 |
| hackulator | Giddorah: just download and use a gparted boot cd to mess with your partitions, like I said before, it is very easy and works well | 02:25 |

| Dr_Willis | MySecondChoiceIS: firefox and its variants, opera, chrome. are what i got installed right now. | 02:26 |
| hackulator | probably because you are downloading too much porn | 02:26 |
| jiohdi | dr willis, I am not that familiar with linux... if I change to icewm, can I still run things like firefox? | 02:26 |
| mdg | cjae: I believe in Amarok, just below the menu bar are some icons | 02:26 |
| stianhj | jiohdi: crunchbang linux uses ubuntu as a base, and openbox as a window manager.. uses much less RAM than standard ubuntu with gnome.. | 02:26 |

| cjae | OK. | 02:39 |
| cjae | mdg | 02:39 |
| cjae | oops sorry | 02:39 |
| apollos84 | yum search coolness | 02:39 |
| yoyoned | gabe_: then disable it | 02:39 |
| mdg | cjae: perhaps you are missing some mtpfs files yet | 02:39 |
| gabe_ | yoyoned: I did | 02:39 |
| gabe_ | yoyoned: But I want to know who this person is | 02:40 |
| ^Phantom^ | maybe i should just reboot into windows everytime I want to scan something | 02:40 |
| spo | i don't have problems sharing windows 7 directories, but i cannot share a printer so that Ubuntu can see it, i don't understand | 02:40 |
| LinuX2half | whats sea monkey web browser? | 02:40 |
| LinuX2half | is it mozilla based browser? | 02:41 |
| br34l | yes | 02:41 |
| jamieleshaw | Yes, it's mozilla based | 02:41 |
| apollos84 | I'm using it as we speak | 02:41 |
| godmodegrafix | welcome to linux | 02:41 |
| yoyoned | gabe_: it is unlikely you can find out. he could have been using something like tor to hide his real IP, but knowing his IP would oly get you his general area | 02:41 |
| LinuX2half | so whats the difference between the two browser mozilla and sea monkey? | 02:42 |
| cjae | mdg, well usually use aptitude to install but just checked with synaptic and libmtp8 is there too | 02:42 |

| mdg | cjae: mtpfs stuff too? | 02:42 |
| cjae | mdg, yes | 02:42 |
| arand | LinuX2half: if it's simply a matter of ram and CPU% you should be able to locate it using just system gnome-system-monitor or "top" terminal command. | 02:42 |
| cjae | mdg, and qlix too will try that again | 02:43 |
| br34l | gabe_: just disable it and, thats it..should be done... | 02:43 |

| JoshStrobl | 0_) | 02:44 |
| JoshStrobl | finally | 02:44 |
| mdg | cjae: I'm guessing gnomad is not working because you are using KDE and you would have to install all that gnome stuff | 02:44 |
| jiohdi | stianhj: I have icewm running, can I run my remote server from there? | 02:45 |
| cjae | mdg, gonna try a reboot and see brb | 02:45 |
| LinuX2half | arand, okay, thanks then | 02:45 |
| br34l | btw, whats "more stable" ? kde or gnome? | 02:45 |
| godmodegrafix | theyre both stable | 02:45 |

| ipatrol | Then it fubared sudo and gksudo, meaning I couldn't fix it | 02:55 |
| pos69sum | i know this means my resolution is too high | 02:55 |
| libtech | pos69sum: maybe the resolution on your computer is tet too high | 02:55 |

| mdg | that's good to know - writting it down... | 03:09 |
| bobo | !sound | 03:09 |
| spo | if i have a remtoe printer connected to windows, then ubuntu has to use smb to print to that remote printer, right? | 03:09 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 03:09 |

| bmwracer0 | anyone use 3+ monitors? | 03:09 |

| jiohdi | dennispudwill, some programs work very well, like firefox can be installed under wine to fool sites that require xp | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | spo, ubuntu uses samba to talk to the windows machine and CUPS to print. if I understand it correctly | 03:10 |
| jiohdi | dennispudwill, some programs you dont even have to install if you have them on a xp partition you can just drag them and they work | 03:10 |

| MrMacPlus | need some advice, just got a thinkpad and I need to decide between jaunty or karmic | 03:15 |
| IdleOne | jaunty | 03:15 |
| gogeta | MySecondChoiceIS: you probly have to reinstall it so it adds the plugin to opra | 03:15 |
| th0r | jiohdi: x11vncserver and realvncserver (or tightvncserver) are different animals | 03:15 |
| jiohdi | th0r which one is native to ubuntu and how do I make it work under icewm? | 03:16 |
| MrMacPlus | also is there any difference between the minimal cd and installing server w/o any extra software? | 03:16 |
| gogeta | MrMacPlus: jaunty is stable kermic alpha | 03:16 |
| MrMacPlus | gogeta: I understand that | 03:16 |
| IdleOne | !minimal | MrMacPlus | 03:16 |
| ubottu | MrMacPlus: 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). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 03:16 |
| MrMacPlus | ubottu: I understand that too | 03:17 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:17 |
| IdleOne | MrMacPlus, the server version has no GUI the minimal and LiveCD versions do | 03:17 |
| bobo | richardcavell: so should i replace 9.04 with 9.10 or is it still to early? | 03:17 |
| richardcavell | bobo: What graphics setup do you have? | 03:17 |
| MrMacPlus | I just want ubuntu w/o a gui | 03:17 |
| Flannel | bobo: Karmic is still alpha software. | 03:17 |
| IdleOne | bobo, if you have to ask then it is to early | 03:17 |
| th0r | jiohdi: don't know what you mean by 'native'. I think x11vncserver is installed by default. You start it with 'x11vnc -display :0 | 03:17 |
| gogeta | bobo: if you dont mind a unstable os | 03:17 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: Grab the alternate CD | 03:17 |
| gogeta | lol | 03:18 |
| MrMacPlus | I don't want a gui Flannel | 03:18 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: The alternate CD can install a system that has no GUI. | 03:18 |
| stianhj | is there any fix yet for intel 4500MHD graphic cards? blender doesn't work properly for example.. | 03:18 |
| MrMacPlus | I have the server install and want to know if it will do the same thing | 03:18 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: minimal and server will work too if you've already got them yeah. | 03:18 |
| MrMacPlus | okay | 03:18 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: The server CD by default includes the server kernel, which you may not want (and may not work on all "desktop" hardware) | 03:18 |
| gogeta | MrMacPlus: heh well server comes w some server tools the min cd is just a base | 03:19 |
| IdleOne | MrMacPlus, any version you want will do fine but karmic is not ready :) | 03:19 |
| Flannel | er, with all, some esoteric peripherals, etc. | 03:19 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: The minimal CD is the alternate CD without packages on it, it instead downloads what it needsfrom the internet during the installation process. | 03:19 |
| bobo | Yes, i know Karmic is still alpha, but i mean i upgraded to jaunty at like beta 2 or something so yeah i just thought it might be the same | 03:19 |
| mdg | what's the difference between VNC, VPN and SHH? | 03:19 |
| gogeta | Flannel: but if you slect base only thats what you get | 03:20 |
| bobo | richardcavell: i have intel chipset and its buggy as anything | 03:20 |
| Flannel | gogeta, MrMacPlus: server CD gives you the *option* of installing server programs. But you likely will want to swap out the kernel | 03:20 |
| Flannel | gogeta: Yes, just like the alternate CD | 03:20 |
| richardcavell | bobo: What version specifically? Do you know? | 03:20 |
| MrMacPlus | if I install the server without selecting any extra software will it be the same as the minimal w/o selecting additional software? | 03:20 |
| === Niamor59 is now known as Niamor | ||
| gogeta | MrMacPlus: the alt cd does that as well as the minmul | 03:20 |
| th0r | mdg: vnc allows you to run a graphic desktop from a remote location. VPN allows you to create a secure tunnel to a remote location, and SSH allows you to access the command line of a remote location using encryption | 03:21 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: No. You'll have the server kernel instead of the generic kernel. But the rest will be, yes. | 03:21 |
| bobo | umm.... idk how can i check? | 03:21 |
| richardcavell | bobo: lspci | grep Graphics | 03:21 |
| gogeta | MrMacPlus: go with alt or mini to get a base desktop kernel | 03:21 |
| mdg | thanks th0r ! | 03:21 |
| MrMacPlus | is having the server kernal going to alter my user experience though? | 03:21 |
| bobo | Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07 | 03:21 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: depends on what you want to do with your computer. It is relatively trivial to change it after you install though, so don't worry about it. | 03:22 |
| mdg | MrMacPlus: are you installing on a PPC? | 03:22 |
| gogeta | Flannel: why are you making it harder | 03:22 |
| richardcavell | bobo: I can't vouch for that series. Yours is more advanced than mine (GMA 950) | 03:22 |
| bobo | oh | 03:22 |
| MrMacPlus | Flannel: sudo apt-get install linux-generic-kernel? | 03:22 |
| bobo | hmmm | 03:22 |
| richardcavell | bobo: But I will say that Karmic works heaps, heaps better on my machine than Jaunty so far as graphics are concerned | 03:22 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: linux-generic, and then remove the -server stuff, yeah. | 03:22 |
| richardcavell | bobo: Unfortunately Karmic is still buggy as anything | 03:22 |
| Flannel | gogeta: I could ask you the same thing. He already has the server CD. | 03:22 |
| gogeta | Flannel: oh | 03:23 |
| richardcavell | bobo: But at least when things crash they don't bring down my whole computer | 03:23 |

| bobo | thats good. Well, i suppose ill wait til the beta comes out for it | 03:23 |
| MrMacPlus | so do those commands after each other? | 03:23 |

| bonez46 | sharing ubuntu printer with networked xp pro? anyone? | 03:23 |
| mdg | MrMacPlus: there are lots of install options from alternate CD, just press tab key and run through them | 03:23 |
| MrMacPlus | well do them after each other if I get any problems | 03:24 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: Install generic kernels, reboot to the generic kernel, then remove all the server kernels | 03:24 |
| MrMacPlus | Flannel: how do you boot into the generic kernels? | 03:24 |
| bobo | Yeah, but like i said earlier, I upgraded to jaunty at beta 2, and although i had a hiccup or two, it wasn't that big so I'll probably do the same for karmic | 03:24 |
| ipatrol | How do you install stuff not in the repositories? | 03:25 |
| Flannel | MrMacPlus: Choose it at the GRUB menu (the menu you get right after you POST) | 03:25 |
| mdg | MrMacPlus: when you get to yaboot prompt just press tab and review all your options - you don't need to install server stuff and then uninstall | 03:25 |
| stianhj | is there any fix yet for intel 4500MHD graphic cards? blender doesn't work properly for example.. | 03:26 |
| Flannel | ipatrol: That depends on the software you're trying to install. | 03:26 |
| MrMacPlus | mdg: you assume I'm using a mac. ;) | 03:26 |
| roby | ohola | 03:26 |
| mdg | MrMacPlus: even on an intel, press tab and you will see lots of options - just keep pressing tab | 03:26 |
| roby | jol | 03:26 |
| ipatrol | What is the linux equivilant of a Windows installer package? | 03:26 |
| mdg | MrMacPlus: yes, I assumed Mac - sorry | 03:26 |
| stianhj | ipatrol: for ubuntu it's .deb files | 03:27 |
| Gnea | ipatrol: depends on the distribution. | 03:27 |
| ipatrol | Jaunty | 03:27 |
| [criipt] | .deb | 03:27 |
| Gnea | jaunty is not a distribution, it is a version of a distribution. | 03:27 |
| MrMacPlus | mdg: I do own more macs than can be healthy but I'm just going to be using linux on my thinkpad I just got | 03:27 |
| MrMacPlus | thanks everyone for the help | 03:27 |
| MrMacPlus | bye | 03:27 |
| ipatrol | Is there a way to install repository stuff without using the terminal? | 03:27 |
| mdg | MrMacPlus: my first laptop was a thinkpad - a whopping 166 Mhz :) | 03:27 |
| Gnea | ipatrol: yes. | 03:28 |
| ipatrol | how? | 03:28 |
| Flannel | !synaptic | ipatrol | 03:28 |
| ubottu | ipatrol: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 03:28 |
| MrMacPlus | mdg: thinkpad a20m, 800mhz | 03:28 |
| stianhj | ipatrol: yes, by downloading .deb files and clicking them.. | 03:28 |
| mdg | MrMacPlus: that should work nicely | 03:28 |
| Gnea | ipatrol: by double-clicking on it in nautilus, it should bring up the package installer. just click the mouse a few times and it will install. | 03:28 |
| ipatrol | What is the add/remove thing in the applications menu? | 03:28 |
| stianhj | ipatrol: a way of installing software in the repositories | 03:29 |
| Flannel | ipatrol: that's another method of installing things from the repositories. | 03:29 |
| insaan | ipatrol, you can use the add/remove or: System > Administration > Synaptic package manager | 03:29 |
| Gnea | ipatrol: a different method of installing or removing software | 03:29 |
| IdleOne | ipatrol, it's a redundant way of doing it IMHO but works just as well as Synaptic | 03:30 |
| Gnea | ipatrol: there is no one-size-fits-all, there are different ways of accomplishing the same goal, depending on the situation. | 03:30 |
| ipatrol | Does thunderbird come with jaunty? | 03:31 |
| rednano12 | Don't think so. | 03:31 |
| rednano12 | You probably need to install it. | 03:31 |
| Gnea | ipatrol: no, but jaunty comes with thunderbird. | 03:31 |
| biovore | ipatrol: not installed be default.. in the repos though.. | 03:31 |
| th0r | ipatrol: yes, it is available in the repos | 03:31 |
| stianhj | ipatrol: just search for it in the add/remove thingy | 03:31 |
| ipatrol | I did | 03:31 |
| zvacet | ipatrol : it is in synaptic | 03:31 |
| IdleOne | ipatrol, up top you need to change it to all available apps | 03:31 |
| stianhj | ipatrol: right next to the search box, select "All available software" | 03:32 |
| rednano12 | I would actually recommend UbuntuZilla. | 03:32 |
| ipatrol | But I saw lots of add-ons, but thunderbird was missing in add/remove | 03:32 |
| stianhj | applications* | 03:32 |
| ipatrol | Even when set to all | 03:32 |
| rednano12 | If you want the newest version, UbuntuZilla is probably your best bet. | 03:32 |
| stianhj | ipatrol: it should be the top one when searching | 03:32 |
| ipatrol | No, it was not | 03:32 |
| ipatrol | Enigmail was on top | 03:32 |
| ipatrol | Thunderbird itself was not there | 03:33 |
| Gnea | ipatrol: it's in the repositories, it's available to be installed | 03:33 |
| zvacet | ipatrol: do you have all repos enabled | 03:33 |
| biovore | ipatrol: its called mozilla-thunderbird in the repos | 03:33 |
| ipatrol | Yes | 03:34 |
| insaan | ipatrol, it's there named: Mozilla Thunderbird Mail | 03:34 |
| ipatrol | Dud that too | 03:34 |
| Flannel | ipatrol: it'll be further down, its package is mozilla-thunderbird. enigmail is on top because it mentions thunderbird like five times in its description | 03:34 |
| ipatrol | Does software already installwd | 03:34 |
| qe2eqe | Is there an easy way to gauge which of two programs (that do the same thing) is 'lighter'? | 03:34 |
| ipatrol | ed disappear from add/remove? | 03:34 |
| rednano12 | It isn't in Add/Remove | 03:34 |
| Flannel | ipatrol: no, because then you wouldn't be able to remove it | 03:34 |
| stianhj | ipatrol: no.. they're just checked | 03:35 |
| rednano12 | Go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic | 03:35 |
| ipatrol | ??? | 03:35 |
| === cfedde_ is now known as cfedde | ||
| ipatrol | Thunderbird isn't in add/remove? | 03:35 |
| stianhj | ipatrol: there is a checkbox on the left of applications.. the ones installed are checked.. | 03:35 |
| rednano12 | Nope. | 03:35 |
| ipatrol | Why? | 03:35 |
| rednano12 | I have no idea. | 03:35 |
| rednano12 | It makes no sense to me. | 03:35 |
| ipatrol | It ought to be put there | 03:35 |
| stianhj | I have it here.. | 03:35 |
| ipatrol | Licensing? | 03:35 |
| insaan | it is there | 03:36 |
| rednano12 | I don't have it either... | 03:36 |
| stianhj | no it's in canonical's repos | 03:36 |
| rednano12 | What version are you guys on? | 03:36 |
| ipatrol | Is it a bug? | 03:36 |
| ipatrol | Jaunty | 03:36 |
| rednano12 | I'm on 8.04 | 03:36 |
| insaan | the name is Mozilla Thunderbird Mail/News | 03:36 |
| rednano12 | Hmm. | 03:36 |
| rednano12 | Oh! | 03:36 |
| rednano12 | If that's the name then I have ti. | 03:36 |
| rednano12 | *it. | 03:36 |
| stianhj | doh | 03:36 |
| zvacet | rednano12 : jaunty and it is in synaptic simple as that | 03:36 |
| ipatrol | That suddenly appeared in my menu while I was searching, strangly | 03:36 |
| rednano12 | Cool. | 03:37 |

| ipatrol | In installing python3.1, sudo and gksudo and other programs were turned into python scripts, strangly | 03:38 |
| C-S-B | innomen: compile or run it | 03:38 |
| === Templar_Xion is now known as TemplarX | ||
| innomen | C-S-B, can you give me the basic command? | 03:39 |
| innomen | http://sourceforge.net/projects/kabikaboo/develop is where it came from | 03:39 |
| rednano12 | It depends on what you are installing. | 03:39 |
| ipatrol | The shbang turned from #! /bin/bash to #! /usr/bin/python | 03:39 |
| biovore | innomen: you probably got source code that needs to be built.. depends on the source code tree what the procedure is.. there is somethimes a readme | 03:39 |
| innomen | i've compiled something literraly once before i should have all the stuff to do it | 03:39 |

| IdleOne | what did you do? | 03:44 |
| innomen | come on guys, it has to be somewhat simple, there are no instructions, i'm supposed ot already know this, isnt it like make installed something or other? | 03:44 |
| bsytko | hi peeps, I'm looking for a utility to synchronize folders between my external HD and my PC, any help? | 03:45 |
| innomen | make install* | 03:45 |
| rednano12 | @IdleOne, nothing. | 03:45 |
| innomen | bsytko, grsync | 03:45 |
| rednano12 | @innomen, I believe it is ./configure | 03:45 |
| rednano12 | then make | 03:45 |
| rednano12 | then make install. | 03:45 |
| IdleOne | innomen, probably ./configure make and make install | 03:45 |
| rednano12 | XD | 03:45 |
| innomen | cool | 03:45 |
| rednano12 | Any idea with my sound? | 03:45 |
| bsytko | innomen: ty I'll check it out | 03:45 |
| IdleOne | rednano12, you did nothing ? | 03:46 |
| innomen | bash: configure: command not found | 03:46 |
| rednano12 | I watched a couple videos. | 03:46 |
| rednano12 | That's it. | 03:46 |
| IdleOne | innomen, install build-essential | 03:46 |
| rednano12 | I was watching the Inkscape screencast in Totem, then the sound suddenly died. | 03:46 |

| biovore | innomen: its a svn checkout.. probably have to do ./autoconf.sh or something first.. there should be a readme somewhere.. | 03:49 |
| isabellf | innomen: if download from source control, you often need to "bootstrap" the package before "configure" can work | 03:49 |
| rednano12 | ./bootstrap.sh | 03:49 |
| innomen | biovore, if it's there i dont see it http://sourceforge.net/projects/kabikaboo/develop | 03:49 |
| IdleOne | it's a .py I believe | 03:49 |
| biovore | innomen: <rednano12> ./bootstrap.sh <-- how about that? | 03:49 |
| Ben64 | why would you want to run an unstable version? | 03:49 |

| jron | has anyone gotten samba to work in 9.04? I'm using the same config from an alpha release and can't connect to the share from my windows machine... any ideas? I'm going crazy testing 100s of configs I feel like I'm missing something. | 04:28 |
| Jkessler | i got it running | 04:28 |
| Jkessler | built a fileserver for the local newspaper using 9.04 | 04:28 |
| Ububegin | whats the standard protocol to install from source... Is it 1) ./configure 2) make install 3) make... Am i right ? | 04:29 |
| jron | Jkessler, and you can connect to it from windows using accounts on the linux box (no ldap) | 04:29 |
| Jkessler | yup | 04:29 |
| nanotube | donavan_: maybe try lifeograph, or rednotebook | 04:29 |
| pepperphd | nikolaus: that command will allow you to delete any file on your FS | 04:30 |
| jron | Jkessler, got that config or guide handy? I'm about ready to throw my file server out the window... | 04:30 |
| nikolaus | pepperphd, that command did not work | 04:30 |
| Jkessler | jron: lol. i'll ssh in and get it | 04:30 |
| nanotube | donavan_: lifeograph seems to have encryption feature. rednotebook seems not to... but could just be stored in a truecrypt volume or something. | 04:30 |

| Flannel | !checkinstall | owen1 | 04:38 |
| ubottu | owen1: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 04:38 |

| andresj | neko_: i know of the command to see if the filesystem is good: fsck. to check the hard drive itself the best i've found is a bootdisk... but i might be just ignorant in that :P | 05:15 |
| Cyber-Dogg | and now, ifconfig up works | 05:15 |
| canthus13 | azraelgnosis: Ah. Lotsa guides for nvidia. | 05:15 |
| andresj | Veronika: why are you trying to format your hard drive? | 05:15 |
| EagleScreen | Cyber-Dogg: can you alreadu see your wireless networks near you? | 05:15 |
| andresj | Veronika: keep in mind that if you try to format the hard drive in which Ubuntu is installed (and u are running it) your computer will hang/crash/do-weird-things at some point. | 05:16 |
| Matr|X | hi i have problem with my windows partition | 05:16 |
| choppyhorse | is the uuid in grub specific to myself or to the different kernel versions? | 05:16 |
| Veronika | andresj i have made a big *** have erased just half of the system... :D i think its much more easy to format it atall | 05:16 |
| Cyber-Dogg | EagleScreen: how do i look fo that? | 05:17 |
| EagleScreen | Cyber-Dogg: use network-manager applet | 05:17 |
| dre360 | that's a bitch | 05:17 |
| andresj | Veronika: aaah... well you shud run from a live cd first, and then format the hdd. if not the errasing might not finish. then again, the installer will errase it all anyways, if you tell it to. | 05:18 |
| Veronika | i have burned it | 05:18 |
| dre360 | try gprated | 05:18 |
| dre360 | to formarted the hdd | 05:18 |
| Cyber-Dogg | where is network-manager? | 05:18 |
| Cyber-Dogg | I see network connections | 05:18 |
| Cyber-Dogg | ? | 05:18 |

| EagleScreen | not, sorry that is for Kubuntu, Cyber-Dogg, you should have an applet to configure the network in the taskbar, and it should show the wireless nets near you | 05:20 |
| Dacvak | Gah, my grub file just randomly stopped working. I can't get into Ubuntu. I don't know how to edit it from LiveCD. Gah, I don't know what to do... | 05:20 |

| Cyber-Dogg | nothing listed there | 05:20 |
| Cyber-Dogg | network connections | 05:20 |
| Dacvak | Could someone here help me? | 05:20 |
| Matr|X | Dacvak | 05:20 |
| dre360 | use the live cd to boot then edit the grub-menu file | 05:21 |
| Matr|X | put the live cd | 05:21 |
| Dacvak | I'm in the live cd mode now | 05:21 |
| Dacvak | That's what I'm typing with. | 05:21 |
| dre360 | dacvak what up | 05:21 |
| Matr|X | sudo bash | 05:21 |
| EagleScreen | Cyber-Dogg: it is network-manager-gnome | 05:21 |
| Dacvak | Hey. Trying to get grub to work. | 05:21 |
| Dacvak | How can I edit it from livecd? | 05:21 |
| dre360 | what are you doing | 05:21 |
| Cyber-Dogg | how do I launch that? | 05:21 |
| EagleScreen | Cyber-Dogg: try from a terminal | 05:21 |
| dre360 | let use know more | 05:22 |
| Dacvak | For some reason grub decided to completely stop working. I literally have no idea why. | 05:22 |
| Cyber-Dogg | command not found | 05:22 |
| canthus13 | Dacvak: Hmm. Can you burn a supergrub CD? | 05:22 |
| canthus13 | Dacvak: It would be the easiest way to fix it. | 05:22 |
| Dacvak | When I boot, it just, like, launches grub. It says "grub>" and that's pretty much it. | 05:22 |
| afed | UNUNTU ????????????!!?!!!!?????!!!!????//// | 05:22 |
| Dacvak | I don't really have access to CDs right now. | 05:22 |

| Dacvak | Plus my menu.lst file was custom made to also dual-boot into windows | 05:23 |
| EagleScreen | Cyber-Dogg: use TAB key to autocomplete names | 05:23 |
| Dacvak | C-S-B: I tried reinstalling grub but I don't think it worked. | 05:23 |
| dre360 | boot the live cd then su mount /etc/sda then cd to /boot/menu-list and edit the file | 05:23 |

| dmizer | i've lost the ability to run commands via ssh. all i get is "sudo: unable to execute /bin/su: Input/output error" for example | 05:46 |
| Dacvak | Now that I think about it, I updated Ubuntu, then magically grub no longer worked. | 05:46 |
| SnakDoc | FactoringHumanit you place script in /etc/cron.daily | 05:47 |

| Dacvak | Wait, I have access to my hard drive but it's not mounted. | 05:48 |
| Ace__ | no luck canthus13 | 05:48 |
| Dacvak | dre360: Where can I find that backup? | 05:48 |
| dre360 | what version is your ubuntu | 05:48 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: Ok. It's prolly not a jack sensing issue then. | 05:48 |
| Dacvak | 9.04 64bit | 05:49 |
| SnakDoc | FactoringHumanit create script to test time and run it hourly then?? i don't know past that never had anything that was that time sensitive | 05:49 |
| dre360 | server | 05:49 |
| Ace__ | really makes no sense to me, no kind of sound is playing | 05:49 |
| dre360 | give me a min | 05:49 |
| FactoringHumanit | SnakDoc i guess that could work basically just add in a couple lines of time checking code and put it in cron.hourly | 05:49 |
| SnakDoc | FactoringHumanit that was my guess i never knew that crontab require a user to be logged in so.. | 05:50 |
| firecrotch | cron doesn't require a user to be logged in | 05:50 |
| dmizer | i've lost the ability to run commands via ssh. all i get is "sudo: unable to execute /bin/su: Input/output error" for example | 05:50 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: Not sure where to go from here. Try putting up a post on ubuntuforums.org. More people will have a chance to look at it. | 05:50 |
| Ace__ | :/ | 05:51 |
| FactoringHumanit | neither did i but even testing to have it run every minute i would only get results if there was someone logged in to the server | 05:51 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | hi when I open gedit from the console is there anyway to detach it from that console so i can use it for other things | 05:51 |
| * canthus13 couldn't find anything else that would apply. | 05:51 | |
| canthus13 | Ace__: Might take a day or so to get an answer.. Might take 10 minutes, just depents on who is reading. | 05:51 |
| Ace__ | ,aybe something in prefrences>sound could be wrong canthus13 ? | 05:51 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: Could be. It can't hurt much to play with the settings. | 05:51 |
| graham_ | Hi all. any chance of any help/advice on installing nvidia graphics drivers. been having a nightmare attempting it for few days now. kinda wearing me out. | 05:51 |
| dre360 | i am sending you my menu list so you can get a little help | 05:51 |
| Ace__ | and do i need to be registered to post | 05:51 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: Yep. | 05:52 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | hi when I open gedit from the console is there anyway to detach it from that console so i can use it for other things | 05:52 |
| Dacvak | Thanks | 05:52 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: registration is painless. :) | 05:52 |
| th0r | MySecondChoiceIS: invoke it as 'gedit &' | 05:52 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | what does & do? | 05:52 |
| firecrotch | FactoringHumanit: it's probably a PATH issue when a user is not logged in | 05:52 |
| canthus13 | MySecondChoiceIS: Runs it in the background. | 05:52 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | and it outputs a number is that PID? | 05:52 |
| === crd1b is now known as crdlb | ||
| th0r | MySecondChoiceIS: "detach it from that console so i can use it for other things" | 05:53 |

| MySecondChoiceIS | [1] 15207 | 05:53 |
| canthus13 | MySecondChoiceIS: Not sure. use ps to find out. :) | 05:53 |
| FactoringHumanit | firecrotch: so where would i try putting it then? just in the root directory or would /etc be better? | 05:53 |
| meshuggah | someone is muslim here? | 05:53 |
| canthus13 | MySecondChoiceIS: Jusgt tried it, and apparently so. | 05:54 |
| graham_ | I've did all the usual things, I've installed the latest graphics drivers, attempted to configure them. but every time I do it, system won't boot into desktop. Only thing I can do then is reinstall the complete os. | 05:54 |
| firecrotch | FactoringHumanit: well, you could make your script use absolute paths in it, or at the top of your crontab, you can set the PATH variable | 05:54 |
| Chessman | Hey all, I'm running Jaunty on a Powerbook G4, ppc. When I attempt to logout of the gui, shutdown, reboot, sleep, etc., the powerbook hangs at a black screen and never completes the command. I have updated the OS, and searched the web, to no avail. Any pointers on where to get started to fix this problem? | 05:55 |
| dmizer | i've lost the ability to run commands via ssh. all i get is "sudo: unable to execute /bin/su: Input/output error" for example | 05:55 |
| FactoringHumanit | firecrotch: i'm pretty sure i'm using an absolute path to it the path is /home/jerry/scripts/del/<script name> | 05:55 |
| meshuggah | Hey, I am not running Ubuntu, but i need an advice from a muslim please, i need to know which good quran i can download in english and not a too big file, please, thank | 05:55 |
| th0r | Chessman: if the installed system works, and the "improved" drivers crash the system....I would say that is a no-brainer | 05:55 |
| Dac-iPhone | I will do anything if someone could help me simply boot into my computer. | 05:56 |
| firecrotch | FactoringHumanit: and absolute paths within the script? | 05:56 |
| th0r | meshuggah: not here | 05:56 |
| graham_ | I've tried editing the xorg.conf, running all the usual progs to configure it from the command prompt. but no joy. seems it doesn't put the correct info into xorg. conf. | 05:56 |
| meshuggah | th0r whynot? | 05:56 |
| th0r | meshuggah: this is ubuntu support | 05:56 |
| Chessman | th0r, What improved drivers? | 05:56 |
| canthus13 | graham_: Will it reboot? | 05:56 |
| Ace__ | canthus13, ill set up a post too | 05:56 |
| Ace__ | but any ideas? | 05:56 |
| meshuggah | th0r, serious? oh so sorry | 05:56 |
| Ace__ | or anyone else here? | 05:56 |
| graham_ | yep, reboots ok, but only to the command prompt. | 05:56 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: I can't think of anything else. | 05:56 |
| canthus13 | graham_: Hmm. | 05:56 |
| * meshuggah hgs th0r | 05:57 | |
| meshuggah | hugs* | 05:57 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | how can I open my xorg log file? | 05:57 |

| th0r | Chessman: sorry...wrong video question....should have gone to graham_ | 05:57 |

| rashed2020 | Anyone have a good tutorial on using mkiniramfs? | 05:58 |
| Chessman | th0r, Roger that. | 05:58 |
| dmizer | i've lost the ability to run commands via ssh. all i get is "sudo: unable to execute /bin/su: Input/output error" for example. logging out and logging back in does not correct the problem. | 05:58 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: Ace__ Master, prolly. Although you won't get much sound if PCM is turned down or muted, | 05:58 |
| Dac-iPhone | Here's my problem: after I installed recommended ubuntu automatic updates, it completely effed up grub and now I can boot into ubuntu or windows. It was handling two partitions on the same drive, dual-booting. I desperately need to simply be able to boot into my computer. | 05:58 |
| graham_ | Thanks, just checking that url out. been trawling the net for days, I reckon I've tried pretty much everything. but been a newb to the os doesn't help. | 05:58 |
| firecrotch | Dac-iPhone: what kind of error do you get? | 05:59 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: Can you run them through a regular terminal? | 05:59 |
| Dac-iPhone | I've edited my menu.lst file in grub to theoretically allow me to boot into windows, but it gave me an error when I tried that. | 05:59 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | nvm I figured it out its like sudo gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log & | 05:59 |
| dmizer | canthus13: i'm unsure, as the system is remote. | 05:59 |
| th0r | MySecondChoiceIS: xterm +sb -fg yellow -bg black -e 'tac /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less' | 05:59 |
| Ace__ | everything is turned up | 05:59 |
| Dac-iPhone | firecrotch: Ubuntu is no linger listed in my boot menu in grub. | 05:59 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: Hmm. Hows teh disk usage on the system? | 05:59 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: Any completely full partitions? | 05:59 |
| dre360 | what error | 06:00 |
| majuk | Dac-iPhone: You probably botched your menu.lst. pastebin it | 06:00 |
| dmizer | canthus13: i don't think so, but i'll check. | 06:00 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | lol th0r what does taht do? | 06:00 |
| Dac-iPhone | majuk: Give me one sec. Logging on to livecd | 06:00 |
| Ace__ | canthus13, i installed restrcited extras but still yt says i dont have flash on firefox | 06:00 |
| dmizer | canthus13: no, most is at 48% | 06:00 |
| majuk | Dac-iPhone: And what error would be useful as well. | 06:00 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: Hmm. | 06:00 |
| firecrotch | !grubfix | Dac-iPhone | 06:00 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about grubfix | 06:00 |
| th0r | MySecondChoiceIS: how can I open my xorg log file? | 06:00 |
| timman | how do i get a list of all the packages i have installed ontopp of the base install? | 06:01 |
| firecrotch | !fixmbr | Dac-iPhone | 06:01 |
| ubottu | Dac-iPhone: 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 | 06:01 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: Reboot. Every once in a while, ff doesn't recognize flash until then. | 06:01 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | That was insane tho | 06:01 |
| dre360 | wait you got windows and ubuntu in a dual boot system ? | 06:01 |
| th0r | MySecondChoiceIS: did you try it? | 06:01 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: Ok. Which commands in particular aren't working? | 06:01 |
| firecrotch | Dac-iPhone: Even though that's for if you bork it by installing windows, it'll help you fix your GRUB | 06:01 |
| izeazal | hi all. when i right click the ubuntu icon and click 'edit menus' nothing happens. any ideas? | 06:01 |
| Dacvak | This is Dac-iPhone. I'm on LiveCD now. | 06:01 |
| FactoringHumanit | firecrotch: the absolute path in the scripts shouldn't be a problem as all i am doing is accessing a mysql database to drop a table | 06:02 |
| Dacvak | Give me one sec and I'll pastebin my menu.lst | 06:02 |
| dmizer | canthus13: anything that requires sudo. also, ssh isn't working | 06:02 |
| firecrotch | timman: dpkg --get-selections > packages.txt will give you a file with all the packages installed | 06:02 |
| dre360 | nerdcore "my girlfriend is a hacker" | 06:02 |

| MySecondChoiceIS | th0r yes | 06:02 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | th0r: yes | 06:02 |
| dmizer | canthus13: that's what i've been doing ... heh. | 06:02 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | how do I red that stuff | 06:02 |
| th0r | MySecondChoiceIS: and did it display the log file? | 06:03 |
| Ace__ | its working now thanks canthus13 | 06:03 |
| Ace__ | just this no sound issue is making me mad | 06:03 |
| timman | firecrotch: thanx | 06:03 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: Have you made any major changes? | 06:03 |
| dre360 | don't get mad | 06:03 |
| dre360 | trouble shout | 06:03 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch and majuk: http://pastebin.com/m79fd3d5 That's after trying to edit it to boot into windows with the exact settings that worked before. | 06:04 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: No prob. flash is annoying sometimes. | 06:04 |
| dmizer | canthus13: had a kernel update a little while back, but i've had successful ssh sessions since then. otherwise, it just sits there and runs virtual machines. | 06:04 |
| dre360 | i will have a look at it | 06:04 |
| dmizer | canthus13: dmesg also does not work, and i can't view any log files. | 06:04 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: How old are the hard drives? | 06:04 |
| dre360 | nerdcore "my girlfriend a hacker" | 06:04 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Dude... you took out the Ubuntu boot option | 06:05 |
| dmizer | canthus13: most are less than a year. | 06:05 |
| qcjn | hi, conky, only appears on one destktop...it start at start up..when i kill conky, and restart via terminal...it appears on all desktop ? | 06:05 |
| majuk | Dacvak: It's not there. At all. | 06:05 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: Not likely to be an issue, then. | 06:05 |
| Ace__ | canthus13, should i try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 | 06:05 |
| Dacvak | majuk: I didn't do crap. It did it by itself. | 06:05 |
| Ace__ | the "Part A: Common instructions (Hardy, Intrepid & Jaunty)" commands | 06:05 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: Definately a good place to start. | 06:06 |
| Dacvak | majuk: Hence why I can't boot into Ubuntu. Everything was fine, Ubuntu ran automatic updates, and then stuff got effed up. I didn't edit anything myself. | 06:06 |
| canthus13 | Ace__: I completely forgot about that post. | 06:06 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: mount your ubuntu / partition, chroot into it, and run sudo update-grub | 06:06 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: Bah. google is useless for your problem so far. :P | 06:06 |
| Ace__ | canthus13, can i pm you | 06:07 |
| dmizer | canthus13: tell me about it. lol | 06:07 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: I don't know how to mount my ubuntu partition. I mean, it's already available on LiveCD without me doing anything. I don't know if that means it's mounted. Either way, I don't know what chroot means. =( | 06:07 |
| th0r | MySecondChoiceIS: http://pastebin.com/f78a90971 | 06:07 |
| C-S-B | Dacvak: chroot changes your root directory | 06:07 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: try e2fsck on your partitions. | 06:07 |
| Dacvak | So what would I have to type? | 06:07 |
| dre360 | http://pastebin.com/md96ff4e that | 06:07 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: it's mounted then. Whatever the mountpoint is for it it, type sudo chroot /that/mountpoint | 06:08 |
| dre360 | is my grub menu-list | 06:08 |
| Dacvak | dre360: That's what mine used to look like. | 06:08 |
| dmizer | canthus13: heh, that ought to keep me busy for a while. i have 6TB of disks. | 06:08 |
| majuk | Dacvak: I see what you did now. You did say you hand-edited it after it wouldn't work, yes? | 06:08 |
| canthus13 | dmizer: Oh crap. | 06:08 |
| dre360 | cut out all the ###### an copy the real stuff | 06:08 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Rawr, yea, either way, do what firecrotch said | 06:08 |
| dre360 | to pastbin | 06:09 |
| Dacvak | majuk: After the problem already started, I just commented out the windows partition and changed which partition booted (hd0,1) which worked before. | 06:09 |
| emilio | hello, someone able Spanish? | 06:09 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: Sorry to be such a noob, but how do I find out what the mountpoint is for the ubuntu partition? | 06:09 |
| dre360 | this is all grub needs to boot titleUbuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.29.4 | 06:09 |

| dre360 | no prob | 06:10 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: I'm pretty sure it was installed on sda1, if that makes any difference. | 06:10 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: Open that partition in the file browser. in the location field, it will show the mountpoint | 06:10 |
| firecrotch | it'll likely be /media/something | 06:10 |
| lobf | hey fellas | 06:10 |

| br34l | emilio: join #ubuntu-br | 06:11 |
| lobf | wolfenstein, that is | 06:11 |
| br34l | or es :) | 06:11 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: When I open it up, it just says Location: /media/disk | 06:11 |
| dre360 | replace the uuid | 06:11 |
| majuk | Dacvak: That's it. | 06:11 |
| theatro | Steil, go to medibuntu.org and read the info there | 06:11 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: then thats the mountpoint! | 06:11 |
| emilio | you'll have better luck in #ubuntu-es | 06:11 |
| emilio | <br34l> emilio: join #ubuntu-br | 06:11 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: sudo chown /media/disk | 06:11 |

| firecrotch | er | 06:12 |
| firecrotch | chroot, sorry | 06:12 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: "chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': Exec format error" | 06:12 |

| firecrotch | majuk: actually that may work.... | 06:14 |
| theatro | suyash, what filesystem ? | 06:14 |
| suyash | ntfs | 06:14 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: What should I type in terminal, then? | 06:14 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfsprogs | 06:15 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: Okay, that suggests to me that /media/disk isn't your ubuntu partition | 06:16 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: cd /media/disk | 06:16 |
| theatro | suyash, find this package, it is possible that it has a tool to do that, ntfsprogs | 06:16 |

| Terry | majuk, i can't run photoshop cs3 setup on ubuntu 9.0 | 06:17 |
| dre360 | df -h to see where it is mounted | 06:17 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: I did cd /media/disk and I'm currently in that. | 06:17 |
| dre360 | ls -l | 06:17 |
| majuk | Terry: Oh yea, I saw, my advice would be 'use GIMP'. | 06:17 |
| Terry | from package manager?, majuk | 06:18 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: now do ls (lowercase L) and tell me if you have etc, boot, home, var, and the rest | 06:18 |
| Dacvak | I do. | 06:18 |
| Dacvak | I'm in /media/disk/boot/grub | 06:18 |
| dre360 | yes | 06:18 |

| dre360 | you are getting there | 06:18 |
| dre360 | nano | 06:18 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: Well, I suppose you can just fix your menu.lst by hand.... | 06:19 |
| Dacvak | I've been trying to do that. I don't know what to type. | 06:19 |
| Terry | majuk, its complicated | 06:19 |
| dre360 | that's what i have been telling him | 06:19 |
| majuk | Terry: Everything is. Adapt. | 06:19 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: I tried editing it like it was before with the Windows 7 partition. That was on (hd0,1) and all I did to get it to work the first time was uncomment it in the menu.lst file. It worked fine. When I did the same thing this time, it didn't boot. | 06:20 |
| majuk | dre360: Dude, use someone's name, no one knows who you're talking to. | 06:20 |
| Terry | photoshop is in my course...majuk, i need to run setup, but i can;t throught wine also, what to do? | 06:20 |
| chris_ | Terry: use gimpshop. it makes it look like photoshop | 06:20 |
| dre360 | Dacvak for the longest time not | 06:21 |
| * br34l is away: Away | 06:21 | |
| Terry | where can i get gimpshop?, majuk | 06:21 |
| th0r | Terry: how did you try to install photoshop? | 06:21 |
| dre360 | boot menu talk here | 06:21 |
| Terry | th0r, right click on setup open with wine, nothing happen | 06:21 |
| dre360 | dacvak\\\ | 06:22 |
| Dacvak | ? | 06:22 |
| majuk | See? | 06:22 |
| majuk | :P | 06:22 |
| Dacvak | Where'd firecrotch go? :( | 06:22 |
| th0r | Terry: did you check the winedb to see if photoshop should run? If so, open a terminal and type 'wine /full/path/setup.exe' and see what error shows up | 06:22 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: I'm here still | 06:22 |
| dre360 | Dacvak do you know what is your hdd uuid | 06:22 |
| Dacvak | dre360: No, I do not. | 06:23 |
| chris_ | how can i revert my graphics driver to default so i can boot up? | 06:23 |
| Heartsfang | anyone around? | 06:24 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Just a thought, you are booting from the same architecture LiveCD as you used to install the system, yea? (x32 or x64) | 06:24 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: I don't have the information for menu.lst that I need to boot into Ubuntu. I don't know the uuid and kernal stuff... I tried booting into windows the same way it should have worked before, and that just didn't work. | 06:24 |
| dre360 | i will pastbin the main info | 06:24 |
| Dacvak | majuk: No. I'm using a 32bit LiveCD and 64bit Ubuntu. I was told before it doesn't make a difference? | 06:24 |
| Terry | th0r, tell me please, i have setup in /file system/media/soft/adobe/setup.exe | 06:25 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Well that's why you can't chroot | 06:25 |
| Heartsfang | Just to spam a bit, im under x64 9.04 and it wont even let me start x with a pair of 8500 gt vid cards....one single is fine | 06:25 |
| === lamer12505712351 is now known as cevarief | ||
| Dacvak | majuk: Want me to boot using the 64-bit LiveCD? | 06:25 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Get the correct LiveCD version and you can chroot and fix it with that command firecrotch was giving you. | 06:25 |
| izeazal | hi all. when i right click the ubuntu icon and click 'edit menus' nothing happens. any ideas? | 06:25 |
| Dacvak | majuk and firecrotch, hold those thoughts and I'll be right back with the correct LiveCD. | 06:26 |

| macius | hey can anyone tell me if sapphire Radeon HD 3870 works with ubuntu buying a new video card soon maybe tomorrow using x1900 now but after reading a few forums it seems theres no hope of running drivers for it with ubuntu 9.04 and not downgrading ol :P | 06:26 |
| th0r | Terry: is that a space in 'file system'? if so, open a terminal and type 'wine /file\ system/media/soft/adobe/setup.exe' and see what error shows up (if any) | 06:26 |
| dre360 | Dacvak http://pastebin.com/m731c638 | 06:26 |
| majuk | macius: IMO, you're better off getting nVidia if you're looking for Linux compatibility. | 06:27 |
| Dac-iPhone | Btw, the boot error for windows is Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format. | 06:27 |
| Heartsfang | so any idea how to set up SLi? without one of the cards installed....wont let me boot with two | 06:28 |
| jgornick | Hey guys, any idea how I can clear contents in a file? | 06:28 |
| Heartsfang | x says primary device is not pci if i do that, even unbridged | 06:28 |
| Terry | th0r, let me tell u first that i have wubi installed with windows xp, and in ubuntu when i goto my computer, there are many drives | 06:28 |
| jgornick | Through terminal obviously. | 06:28 |
| jgornick | I am already finding the correct files, I just want to clear out the contents of them. | 06:28 |
| merma | jgornick: make a new empty file and replace it | 06:29 |

| zeltak_ | morning guys :) i need some help with an apt-get upgrade error http://pastebin.ca/1533410 | 06:29 |
| th0r | Terry: can't help much with wubi...I know it is a different animal. Why not run photoshop in windows? running it in wine is just asking for headaches if you have an alternative | 06:29 |
| jgornick | merma, using find, how can I execute two commands at once? | 06:29 |
| majuk | jgornick: cat /dev/null > $FILE | 06:29 |
| jgornick | majuk, not a bad idear :) | 06:30 |

| phill | I need some help on installing Ubuntu on a new Asus laptop. I'm pretty sure this Asus has a secret "recovery" partition. Anything I need to know about that? I'm going to try a dual boot with Windows Vista and Ubuntu, then Windows 7 and Ubuntu in October. | 06:31 |
| jgornick | majuk, Didn't seem to work :) | 06:31 |
| majuk | jgornick: I tested it on a text file, worked fine. | 06:31 |
| jgornick | majuk, Something like: find . -type f -name "*.txt" -exec cat /dev/null > {} \; ? | 06:32 |
| Dacvak_ | firecrotch and majuk: Back, in 64-bit now. | 06:32 |
| th0r | phill: before nuking the recovery partition, make a set of recovery cd's | 06:32 |
| nh2 | what is the program/package that lets me make the touchpad settings in the mouse settings dialog? | 06:32 |
| phill | th0r: Got it, what's the recovery partition anyway? | 06:33 |
| majuk | jgornick: Do it the other way, cat /dev/null > `find command` | 06:33 |
| theatro | zeltak_, have you tried reinstalling autokey? | 06:33 |
| Dacvak_ | firecrotch and majuk: I just chroot'd successfully into my Ubuntu partition. | 06:33 |
| === Dacvak_ is now known as Dacvak | ||
| firecrotch | Dacvak: sudo update-grub | 06:33 |
| jgornick | majuk, Do I need to wrap the find command in ticks? | 06:34 |
| th0r | phill: microsoft no longer supplies the cd's....they put the stuff on a separate partition so you can make your own cd's. If you nuke the partition before making your recovery cd's, you will have a hard time getting a set from asus or microsoft | 06:34 |
| majuk | jgornick: The backticks ` ` tell Linux to take the output of the find command and feed it into the command cat /dev/null. So yes. | 06:34 |
| majuk | :D | 06:34 |
| RickZilla | How long will it take GIMP 2.6.7 to hit Synaptic? | 06:34 |
| th0r | phill: there should be an option in the menus for making the restore cd's | 06:34 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: I did that. Let me pastebin you what it did. | 06:34 |
| jgornick | majuk, Very cool. | 06:34 |
| jgornick | Thank you for the clinic :) | 06:34 |
| majuk | It work? | 06:34 |
| majuk | I mean, it should, but who knows. :D | 06:35 |
| zeltak_ | theatro: yeah even from a deb file and thats how i got the current error. i think i used a intrepid ppa by mistake | 06:35 |
| jgornick | majuk, ambiguous redirect error. | 06:35 |
| phill | th0r:That's pretty lame, what ever happened to good ole install cd's :( I'm such a 90's child I guess. :) After I make a set of these install cd's (I think four? Jesus) I can nuke the partition and reinstall Windows using them? | 06:35 |
| zeltak_ | that worked for a few months up to the latest upgrade | 06:35 |
| theatro | remove and install the correct one | 06:35 |
| majuk | jgornick: Hmmmm. :-\ | 06:35 |

| pepperphd | Steil: joking? | 06:36 |
| Steil | no | 06:36 |
| Steil | it doesnt work | 06:36 |
| Steil | it work on windows but not ubuntu | 06:36 |
| pepperphd | does youtube work for you? if not, you may need to install/update flash | 06:36 |
| Steil | youtube works | 06:36 |
| Steil | redtube works too | 06:36 |
| Steil | but spankwire wont work | 06:36 |
| Dacvak | lol | 06:37 |
| majuk | jgornick: Unfortunately I'm only a part-time CLI junkie, not sure what's causing that. What command specifically are you issuing? | 06:37 |

| Steil | why craigslist? | 06:38 |
| br34l | *sigh'* | 06:38 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: yes, I did, trying to figure this out | 06:38 |
| phill | Steil: nevermind, what's the problem? Flash not working? | 06:38 |
| majuk | jgornick: Yea, that looks right. Maybe it won't do the ` ` with the redirect. | 06:38 |
| RickZilla | I don't get it...I d/l a file from getdeb.net with a .deb suffix, the deb installer opens it, but the "install" button is grayed out...what's up with that? | 06:38 |
| Steil | no | 06:38 |
| Steil | youtube and redtube work but spankwire doesnt work | 06:38 |
| Steil | i dont nkow whats wrong | 06:38 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: Thank you so much | 06:38 |
| theatro | zeltak_, check this https://launchpad.net/~cdekter/+archive/ppa | 06:38 |
| alankila | RickZilla: perhaps the deb is not self-sufficient: you can't install it without all its prerequisites. Just guessing. | 06:38 |
| firecrotch | Steil: is your flash player up to date ? | 06:39 |
| Myrtti | Steil: which version of flash did you have again? | 06:39 |
| zeltak_ | theatro: thats the ppa i was installing from | 06:39 |
| alankila | a standard way I deal with rogue debs like that is dpkg -i foo.deb and then when it fails on the dependencies, apt-get -f install will fetch & install them if fetchable | 06:39 |
| theatro | zeltak_, have you run apt-get clean ? | 06:39 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Well, the error suggests that your /etc/fstab is bad. | 06:40 |
| RickZilla | alankila: Thanks. I'm also trying to install another part of this app (GIMP), and it's telling me that the dependency isn't satisfied...but I try to install what it's missing, and that's the part that's grayed out | 06:40 |
| dre360 | Dacvak a i get is that the /etc/fstab is not seeing the hdd with uuid check your hdd uuid | 06:40 |
| zeltak_ | yup and apt-get purge and autoclean. i suspect there is a conflicit between intrrepid and jaunty and somehow it cant update to jaunty | 06:40 |
| alankila | What version is gimp at these days? | 06:40 |
| Steil | firecrotch: i use the one that it did | 06:40 |
| Steil | how do i check which it is? | 06:40 |
| nh2 | alankila: 2.6.6-0ubuntu1 in the ubuntu jaunty repo | 06:40 |
| Dacvak | majuk and dre360: What can I do about that? I didn't cause anything, this is a brand new laptop, and it only started after Ubuntu automatically updated. | 06:41 |
| alankila | Didn't they have some new fancy transformations model coming for all edits or something | 06:41 |
| alankila | I have been thinking I should play with that | 06:41 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: your best bet is probably going to be to just reinstall grub completely | 06:41 |
| dre360 | Dacvak then nano the /etc/fstab file and double check it is the same number | 06:41 |

| mib | hi. i have just did apt-get souce gcc but im not sure what to do next | 06:42 |
| Myrtti | mib: what do you really want to do? | 06:42 |
| Flimflam | I'll think about it | 06:42 |
| Myrtti | mib: compile gcc? | 06:42 |
| alankila | nh2: actually I was looking at the upstream because this RickZilla guy is installing it from rogue debs rather than repos | 06:42 |
| mib | i want to install the source code and access to the test cases | 06:42 |
| mib | ive actually got gcc installed and working | 06:42 |
| mib | i need to get the source code and the test cases | 06:42 |
| alankila | looks like gimp 2.6.7 is the latest stable and 2.7.0 is some random snapshot. Ew. | 06:42 |
| Myrtti | mib: you've got the source code now, should be in the directory you run the command in | 06:43 |
| mib | which directory? | 06:43 |
| nh2 | alankila: right, 2.7 is a developer snapshot which is not stable | 06:43 |
| mib | i try to whereis gcc | 06:43 |
| mib | and it returns me /usr/local/bin | 06:43 |
| alankila | RickZilla: what version are you installing, then? | 06:43 |
| mib | and some other paths | 06:43 |
| Myrtti | mib: do you have the terminal where you entered the command in still open? | 06:43 |
| RickZilla | alankila: Yeah, I'm only going up to the latest stable...the package isn't in the repository yet | 06:43 |
| RickZilla | alankila: 2.6.7 | 06:43 |
| alankila | okay. | 06:43 |
| mib | yeah | 06:44 |
| RickZilla | It's not in the repo yet | 06:44 |
| mib | i have Myrtti | 06:44 |
| Myrtti | mib: "ls gcc*" | 06:44 |
| RickZilla | I might try uninstalling 2.6.6 in the repo, then trying the .deb package | 06:44 |
| alankila | RickZilla: try doing "dpkg -i gimp-2.6.7-etc.deb" from the command line | 06:44 |
| alankila | it will tell you in surprising clarity why the package is not installable so we can stop guessing | 06:45 |
| calmbola | can anyone help me please? i want to know how to do this command on ubuntu: dpkg -l | grep atlas | awk {’print $2′} | xargs apt-get remove –purge -y | 06:45 |
| mib | Myritti: it is http://pastebin.com/d286bc0a | 06:45 |
| RickZilla | alankila: I'll try that next, uninstalling the repo version first seems to be working...Thanks for your help | 06:45 |
| calmbola | i installed some libraries and apparently they were incompatible... i uninstalled, but seems that there is still some stuff on here | 06:45 |
| calmbola | i found a form that said to do : dpkg -l | grep atlas | awk {’print $2′} | xargs apt-get remove –purge -y and it would fix it | 06:46 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: I'm having problems with this tutorial you sent. | 06:46 |
| calmbola | but that doesn't work on ubuntu | 06:46 |
| alankila | RickZilla: the system would uninstall the repository version in any case when you supply a new version, or die in a conflict, so there's generally no need to | 06:46 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: | 06:46 |
| Myrtti | mib: so there you go, the sources are in the directory gcc-defaults-1.32 | 06:46 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: it said to type mount /dev/sda1 /media/root | 06:46 |
| alankila | calmbola: may be --purge, not that longdash-purge | 06:46 |
| Myrtti | calmbola: you've copypasted wrong kind of dashes | 06:46 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: When I did that, I got an error saying "mount: only root can do that" | 06:46 |
| === kaie is now known as Guest36816 | ||
| mib | gcc-defaults-1.32 as in /usr/local or what is the full path..sorry being noob | 06:46 |
| Myrtti | mib: in the directory where you typed in ls gcc* | 06:47 |
| Myrtti | mib: type in pwd in that terminal | 06:47 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Most commands are going to require super-user access that you get by prceeding the command with 'sudo' | 06:47 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: Make sure that you're not still in your chroot from earlier | 06:47 |
| Dacvak | Oh, duh. | 06:47 |

| Dacvak | My bad. =P | 06:47 |
| Myrtti | calmbola: wrong kind of ' | 06:48 |
| alankila | one typically writes it '{print $2}' too | 06:48 |
| mib | Myritti, so that means where i did the apt-source thats' where it would be loaded into? | 06:48 |
| Myrtti | mib: correct | 06:48 |

| Dacvak | majuk | 07:12 |
| majuk | Dacvak: So you have one drive (sda) with multiple partitions (sda1,2,3,etc) | 07:12 |

| Dacvak | Brb. Talk to me on iPhone if you need anything. | 07:14 |

| Dac-iPhone | majuk: Theres nothing in my menu.lst for ubuntu though. Windows is now my only option. | 07:15 |
| majuk | Dac-iPhone: Right, because you commented it out. Look right below the Windows boot entry (if you can) | 07:15 |
| Dac-iPhone | I didn't comment it out... | 07:16 |

| majuk | firecrotch: He doesn't see it as an option in Grub | 07:38 |
| Boohbah | rashed2020: what? | 07:39 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: you're hitting ESC to get to the grub menu, correct? | 07:40 |
| Dacvak | Yes, I am. | 07:40 |
| C-S-B_ | Dacvak: is your kernel in /boot | 07:40 |
| rashed2020 | Boohbah: The link doesn't mention using mkinitramfs anywhere, which is what (afaik) is used to create a new initramfs in Ubuntu. | 07:40 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch, where can I get my uuid again? I actually think I pastebin'd it before... | 07:40 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Uhhhh... k, I dunno. I think you were right, that was an example and you need to author a new one. | 07:40 |
| C-S-B_ | Dacvak: blkid | 07:40 |
| Dacvak | C-S-B_: I'm not sure? | 07:40 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: /etc/fstab | 07:40 |
| apparle | hi guys .......is it neccessary to make a diffrent /boot partition and even if not neccessary what are its advantages | 07:41 |
| james_ | Hi, I'm having a problem whereby I try doing anything in terminal, xchat or gedit where either the gui flickers or terminal writes random rubbish. Heres pics: http://i25.tinypic.com/1zr2j42.png http://i32.tinypic.com/2z73jmb.png | 07:42 |
| majuk | apparle: System integrity and security, largely. | 07:42 |
| majuk | apparle: But no, by no means necessary. | 07:42 |
| Dacvak | firecrotch: I'm trying it with my replaced uuid now. | 07:43 |
| Dacvak | Brb. | 07:43 |
| apparle | majuk: plz explain what do you mean by system integrity and security...............plz explain a little more | 07:43 |
| james_ | it would seem my f9 key is sticking, but it doesnt occur on my other os | 07:43 |
| ActionParsnip | apparle: it means that if you want rid of the OS then grub and its config will still stand | 07:43 |
| majuk | apparle: If you install /boot on a seperate partition, you can unmount it during normal operation, mean it can't be altered or tampered with because it's unavailable. Hence, secure and integrity....um...ish. | 07:44 |
| majuk | /s/mean/meaning | 07:44 |
| kermit1 | alankila: nothing in any of those :( | 07:44 |
| C-S-B_ | Dacvak: your menu.lst is all wrong, your menu entries should be at the bottom for a start, then you need to direct grub to your /boot directory and to the kernel files, | 07:44 |
| C-S-B_ | I'd start fresh... | 07:44 |
| bolzano_1989 | @C-S-B_ : Yes, it hangs when it promts for password | 07:45 |
| === kermit1 is now known as kermit | ||
| majuk | apparle: Similarly, if your system corrupts itself for whatever reason, your kernels in /boot would be protected, thus allowing you to still start the system (hypothetically) | 07:45 |
| Dacvak | GREETINGS FROM NON-LIVECD UBUNTU! | 07:45 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Nice. | 07:45 |
| majuk | Dacvak: UUIDs do it? | 07:46 |
| Dacvak | Crazy thing is, it was actually majuk's method that ended up working. | 07:46 |
| majuk | :D | 07:46 |
| Dacvak | The uuid's didn't show up. | 07:46 |
| Dacvak | Like | 07:46 |
| Dacvak | At all... | 07:46 |
| Dacvak | Whatever, it works now. It doesn't have the gui splash screen, but whatever. =P | 07:46 |
| C-S-B_ | majuk's? the world has come to end! | 07:46 |
| poent | How can i enable file sharing between ubuntu and vista over my LAN? | 07:46 |
| C-S-B_ | Dacvak: out of interest what did you do to fix? | 07:46 |
| kermit | poent: samba | 07:46 |
| majuk | C-S-B_: I've got whiskey and a gun, I'm ready for the fall-out. | 07:47 |
| C-S-B_ | poent: samba | 07:47 |
| ActionParsnip | apparle: its not essential but it is fun. If you make /boot too large too then you will waste space so plan it wisely, depends how many kernels you intend to keep onto | 07:47 |
| Anon591 | heyy how do u change yur namee on this? | 07:47 |
| ActionParsnip | !samba | poent | 07:47 |

| colloguy | how do I close one instance of the terminal widget, while keeping the other instance running? | 07:48 |
| Dacvak | C- | 07:48 |
| firecrotch | Oh fantastic, it's disabled in here :( | 07:48 |
| Dacvak | C-S-B_: I'm not entirely sure. | 07:48 |
| ActionParsnip | apparle: just create a small partition and mark the mount point as /boot in manual partitioning | 07:48 |
| colloguy | err terminal screenlet | 07:48 |
| majuk | firecrotch: lol | 07:48 |
| ActionParsnip | apparle: i'd do some research into suitable sizes | 07:48 |
| Besogon | Does anybody know How it's possible to change and generate UUID (for my USB-sticker for example)? | 07:48 |
| Dacvak | Anyway, it seems to be working fine now. Majuk, firecrotch, I thank you both so much for your help. | 07:48 |
| nick| | anyone live in nsw? | 07:48 |
| ActionParsnip | !uid | Besogon | 07:48 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about uid | 07:48 |
| majuk | Dacvak: Nooooo problem man. Nice sticking with it. ;) | 07:49 |
| ActionParsnip | !uuid | 07:49 |
| ubottu | To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 07:49 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: You're welcome! Told you we'd get you working :) | 07:49 |
| C-S-B_ | Dacvak: what about me... | 07:49 |
| majuk | C-S-B_: WHAT ABOUT YOU? | 07:49 |
| majuk | :P | 07:49 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: Beware though - if you update your kernel, you may run into problems again | 07:49 |
| Dacvak | And ESPECIALLY C-S-B!! | 07:49 |
| C-S-B_ | I confused myself and everyone else, I played my part... | 07:49 |
| Dacvak | Now while I'm in here, here's a quick question... Can I shrink my Ubuntu partition (200gb) and create just some normal diskspace for both ubuntu and windows to share? | 07:50 |
| majuk | apparle: like 50mbs is probably more than enough, especially if you're only booting one version of Linux | 07:50 |
| C-S-B_ | Dacvak: you may want to work out why grub-install isnt auto generating a menu.lst as well | 07:50 |
| C-S-B_ | majuk: my ubuntu / is only 20gb | 07:50 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: You can shrink your ubuntu partition, yes. | 07:51 |
| Besogon | ActionParsnip, I'v seen that (blkid and vol_id) are reflecting exist information about devices but not change. | 07:51 |
| majuk | C-S-B_: Would you like a cookie? :P | 07:51 |
| ActionParsnip | C-S-B_: wow that loads, mine come in at 5Gb and I have loads of space spare | 07:51 |
| C-S-B_ | ActionParsnip: do you have space for any expansion? | 07:51 |
| Untouchab1e | Hi guys | 07:52 |
| Untouchab1e | I am dual booting Vista and Ubuntu | 07:52 |
| Dacvak | Yeah, I've already shrank it once with gparted. What do I have to format the new partition to to have it be read/recognized/usable by both ubuntu and windows? You know, if I need to share files between the two OS's (that are dual-booting) | 07:52 |
| C-S-B_ | ActionParsnip: plus it was a 120GB drive, left a nice round-ish 100 for home | 07:52 |
| ActionParsnip | C-S-B_: they have about 1.5gb free so yeah | 07:52 |
| Untouchab1e | but now I have to install Windows 7 x64 and how will I fix the boot loader afterwards? | 07:52 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: FAT32 | 07:52 |
| majuk | Dacvak: NTFS will go both ways. So will FAT32 | 07:52 |
| Untouchab1e | so, when installing Windows AFTER Ubuntu, how to get the choice of which to boot at startup? | 07:52 |
| C-S-B_ | Untouchab1e: grub-install | 07:52 |
| Dacvak | So I just create a new NTFS partition, then? | 07:52 |
| ActionParsnip | C-S-B_: that makes sense. I like to have it all nice and compacted :) | 07:52 |
| Untouchab1e | C-S-B_, how? | 07:52 |
| Dacvak | Sounds good to me. | 07:53 |
| firecrotch | !fixmbr | Untouchab1e | 07:53 |
| ubottu | Untouchab1e: 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 | 07:53 |
| C-S-B_ | Dacvak: you should help Untouchab1e lol | 07:53 |
| majuk | rofl | 07:53 |
| firecrotch | lmao | 07:53 |
| Dacvak | Lol | 07:53 |
| Untouchab1e | firecrotch, thanks | 07:53 |
| Untouchab1e | Dacvak, I would recommend NTFS | 07:53 |
| Dacvak | Alright, well, I'm going to go to sleep before I balls anything else up. | 07:53 |
| Dacvak | Once again, thanks guys. | 07:54 |
| majuk | Night | 07:54 |
| Dacvak | See you all later. =) | 07:54 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: Your other option is to install the windows ext3 driver | 07:54 |
| zeltak_ | hi, guys i need help big time. my whole apt-get system seems broken :( | 07:54 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: whats wrong with it? | 07:54 |
| firecrotch | Dacvak: Goodnight :-D | 07:54 |
| majuk | firecrotch: That work well? I am SO paranoid to give Winblows access to my Linux drives | 07:54 |
| Dacvak | Later =) | 07:54 |
| majuk | firecrotch: Direct access, anyway | 07:54 |
| firecrotch | majuk: I never got it to work, but I didn't put too much time into it | 07:54 |
| zeltak_ | well its a long story C-S-B_but basiclly i tried to upgrade a package (autohotkey) and things went form bad to worse | 07:55 |
| C-S-B_ | majuk: i got so worried about windows i took it off my system :) | 07:55 |
| majuk | firecrotch: Pffft, quitter. | 07:55 |
| comrade_tuttle | Hey, I'm still having an Audio issue, for those who were here earlier this evening, I have managed to get audio working in all media files and web browser but it still will not work on any program like Nexuiz or any of the Tux games. As a recap i already have pulse audio and the rest of the packets needed and my driver is working fine. But For some odd reason sound won't come through. Partially the problem was the sound was being | 07:55 |
| zeltak_ | right now i cant install anything and i get this message: | 07:55 |

| Dac-iPhone | Why do the Linux gods hate me so? | 07:56 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: have you tried apt-get autoremove? | 07:56 |
| firecrotch | Dac-iPhone: Same error? | 07:56 |
| majuk | Dac-iPhone: You don't wipe with penguin-friendly TP | 07:56 |
| ActionParsnip | comrade_tuttle: have you set the default sound device in sound settings? | 07:56 |
| seik_ | workin | 07:56 |
| zeltak_ | yup tried that tried purge tried autoclean..everything.. :( | 07:56 |
| seik_ | listening to music | 07:57 |
| Dac-iPhone | It's like im on a 1-boot lag. Now firecrotch's method came up instead of majuk's. | 07:57 |
| herenbdy | can anyone explain what the nsis package does? the title is: Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (modified for Debian), but when I install the package, no nsis executable is to be found anywhere on my system | 07:57 |

| linuxson25 | Hi everyone | 07:57 |
| herenbdy | unless it's under a different name? | 07:57 |
| comrade_tuttle | ActionParsnip: i have and i have moved the streams to the audigy card and away from the mother board but still no sound on the programs | 07:57 |
| linuxson25 | Just wanted to let you know....my sound problem has been sorted...well, sort of | 07:57 |
| ActionParsnip | comrade_tuttle: thought itd be an audigy | 07:58 |
| seanius_ | anyone here running UNR on an HP mini 110 1036NR? | 07:58 |
| majuk | herenbdy: Nullsoft are the makers of WinAmp... but I don't think they ported it to Linux... | 07:58 |
| comrade_tuttle | ActionParsnip: does linux not like those sound cards or something? | 07:58 |
| Dac-iPhone | Im so sad. | 07:58 |
| herenbdy | majuk: they also make an installer creatiion program (NSIS) | 07:58 |

| firecrotch | bakhtiar: Using pidgin? | 07:59 |
| bakhtiar | yah | 07:59 |
| Dac-iPhone | Im going to try majuk's method again and try booting twice, even though that makes no freaking sense. | 07:59 |
| majuk | herenbdy: OH, I got you. I don't know what the executable name would be or how to find it. I am teh loszar. | 07:59 |
| zeltak_ | C-S-B_: everytime i try to install stuff get this error: http://pastebin.ca/1533478 | 07:59 |
| firecrotch | bakhtiar: read the channel topic in #pidgin | 07:59 |
| comrade_tuttle | ActionParsnip: agreed to that, but is there a fix or anything? its a pain to play DM games with out any sound, let alone any online game with out sound | 07:59 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq autokey | 07:59 |
| majuk | ...I said to boot twice? lol, alright then. | 07:59 |
| herenbdy | majuk: I just found it.. the executable is called "makensis" | 08:00 |
| majuk | herenbdy: Makes sense. | 08:00 |
| bakhtiar | thanks | 08:00 |
| majuk | makesense :D | 08:00 |

| ActionParsnip | comrade_tuttle: ive seen folks using OSS with some success. I dont use them as the support is crap. all my onboard soundcards work out of the box :) | 08:00 |
| linuxson25 | How do you completely remove a kernel, and then re-install it? | 08:00 |
| herenbdy | linuxson25: sudo apt-get remove linux-image-(insert version here)? | 08:00 |
| herenbdy | linuxson25: that's what I use to get rid of old kernels after I upgrade | 08:01 |
| comrade_tuttle | ActionParsnip: so bluntly stated, I'm SOL.... | 08:01 |
| ActionParsnip | comrade_tuttle: if you run: lspci you can search for your card and maybe find a guide or too | 08:01 |
| linuxson25 | herenbdy: Thanx. Does that remove it competely? Configuration files and everything? | 08:01 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: did you try the command? | 08:01 |
| apparle | comrade_tuttle: which card do you have | 08:02 |
| herenbdy | linuxson25: I think so | 08:02 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: you might need to purge | 08:02 |

| Dac-iPhone | Majuk or firecrotch, could someone pastebin the examples in menu.lst? In going to try making that other one again. | 08:03 |
| zeltak_ | i did try autoremove of course | 08:03 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: And how is that done again? | 08:03 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq autokey | 08:03 |
| zeltak_ | k trying it now thx | 08:03 |

| linuxson25 | C-S-B_:Will I first need to boot into an earlier kernel version before I do this? | 08:06 |
| ActionParsnip | zeltak_: find a deb for it and reinstal it using the deb, then remove it | 08:06 |

| poent | there's only one bot in here? | 08:12 |
| majuk | poent: I doubt that. | 08:12 |
| firecrotch | poent: 2 that I know of.... ubottu and FloodBot1 | 08:12 |
| ActionParsnip | poent: no theres floodbot too | 08:12 |
| zeltak_ | i think one of the problems is that the autokey package is lingiring from intrepid | 08:13 |
| zeltak_ | (line 5) | 08:13 |
| firecrotch | A couple of FloodBots actually, but you get the point | 08:13 |
| rww | poent: ubottu, Floodbots, and ubuntulog | 08:13 |
| tonytiger123 | I accidentally chown'd my entire /var/ directory and all children to my user:group - tony:tony. Does anyone know if this is "end of the world" serious, or relatively easy to fix? | 08:13 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: im a little stumped... | 08:13 |
| firecrotch | tonytiger123: it's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine. | 08:13 |
| zeltak_ | yeah so am i LOL...i hope my system is not hosed... | 08:13 |
| === shampoo is now known as shampoonator | ||
| firecrotch | tonytiger123: in other words - you'd have to manually change everything back | 08:14 |
| ActionParsnip | tonytiger123: you could chown it to root:root but you'd need someone to output their output of: ls -la /var to verify that it is correct | 08:14 |
| majuk | firecrotch: Every time I try to sing the fast part in that song, I end up singing "Ain't Goin Down Till the Sun Comes Up" by Garth Brooks. | 08:14 |
| majuk | /ot | 08:14 |
| tonytiger123 | So it would be best to get a reference of someone else's ls -laR /var/ and then manually change everything back? No automated way to do it? | 08:15 |
| Dac-iPhone | Im screwed. No idea why it's not working. It was working great. Now it's not. | 08:16 |
| firecrotch | tonytiger123: did was it just everything in /var or everything in the subdirectories too? | 08:16 |
| jon_high9000 | hello. I`m having a problem setting up a manual Static IP address. i have everything else filled in just not the network address. anybody know what that is and where it can be found? | 08:16 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: Hi. Rebooted into an earlier kernel version, and tried the purge command, but it couldn't find the package. So I am guessing it was completely removed? | 08:16 |
| ActionParsnip | tonytiger123: if ALL are root:root you can use: sudo chown -R root:root /var | 08:16 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: The thing is....I had problems with my sound, and messed up my ALSA config some or other way. Then someone told me to boot into another kernel | 08:16 |
| tonytiger123 | everything in /var/ and all subdirectories too | 08:16 |
| cherva | anyone who worked with dm-raid ( FakeRaid ) ? | 08:16 |
| firecrotch | ActionParsnip: Not everything in /var is owned by root | 08:16 |
| Dac-iPhone | Im too freaking tired for this. How could it work one second and not the other? :( | 08:16 |
| dca | hi friends.. Flickr slideshow is not working in my ubuntu.. it shows a balnk screen | 08:17 |
| ActionParsnip | tonytiger123: you could even do that and then make the little changes to match someones output | 08:17 |
| comrade_tuttle | If any one can help me with a sound card issue please message me. I can't find anything to fix it on the net and as far as my box is concerned it should be working. | 08:17 |
| ActionParsnip | firecrotch: i know, thats why we need someones output to see what isnt so it can be applied | 08:17 |
| majuk | Dac-iPhone: Computer Goblins. | 08:17 |
| Dac-iPhone | :( | 08:17 |
| dca | And also Youtube videos are playing very slow | 08:17 |
| dca | its is stuck | 08:18 |
| Dac-iPhone | Im just upset that your method is no longer working. :( | 08:18 |
| tonytiger123 | ActionParsnip: I like the idea of putting everythign to root:root and then looking for the differences, e.g. I think /var/lib/mysql is a mysql user | 08:18 |
| firecrotch | Just looking at the permissions on stuff in my /var, it would be faster to reinstall | 08:18 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: i think the only way is to use dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq <package> | 08:18 |
| ActionParsnip | tonytiger123: exactly so we need the output of someone whom hasnt been messing with stuff so we can see what is default | 08:18 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: you might need to manually delete problem files | 08:18 |
| ActionParsnip | firecrotch: is it complex? | 08:18 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: Now I am trying to get that other kernel back up and working, but just plainly re-installing it doesn't seem to do the job | 08:19 |
| tonytiger123 | I have some friends who I work with who can help me with getting a reference ls -laR /var/ | 08:19 |
| ActionParsnip | firecrotch: i've not lookd at it as i dont go playing with stuff like that | 08:19 |
| zeltak_ | can u point me to a manuall or a how to on how to manually delete | 08:19 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: Am I missing something here? | 08:19 |
| tonytiger123 | Thanks for the help, I appreciate it | 08:19 |
| firecrotch | ActionParsnip: Yeah, I've got stuff owned by root, my user, polkit, messagebus, avahi, etc | 08:19 |
| ActionParsnip | firecrotch: can you pastebin the ownerships for tonytiger123 please | 08:19 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: you need to ensure grub is updated with the new kernel info | 08:19 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: How would I do that? | 08:19 |
| dca | hi friends.. Flickr slideshow is not working in my ubuntu.. it shows a blank screen | 08:20 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: grub-install <device grub is installed> | 08:20 |
| dca | please help | 08:20 |
| tonytiger123 | ownerships of ls -laR /var/ would be cool if someone has 9.04 | 08:20 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: And by re-installing a new, downloaded version of an up to date kernel...which is only like a couple of Kb's...would that really sort out my sound again? | 08:21 |
| tonytiger123 | I need to be careful when I sudo things in future. Lesson learned. | 08:21 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: i dont have one sorry, that command forcefully removes packages, i think a py script is stopping yours maybe. you could try and rid of that? | 08:21 |
| ActionParsnip | firecrotch: can you please provide a pastebin: ls -la /var | pastebinit | 08:21 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: a kernel is more than a few kbs | 08:22 |
| Dac-iPhone | Hey, I think I figured it out. Folder was misspelled. Should be ok now. | 08:22 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: and your sound, no doubtful | 08:22 |
| Dac-iPhone | Thanks again guys. | 08:22 |
| firecrotch | ActionParsnip: Working on it :) | 08:22 |
| tonytiger123 | actionparsnip firecrotch - can it be a recursive one, ls -laR? | 08:22 |
| timing | I need to do a security update, but the packages can't be authenticated. what shall i do? | 08:22 |
| dca | hi friends.. Flickr slideshow is not working in my ubuntu.. it shows a balnk screen | 08:22 |
| ActionParsnip | tonytiger123: i believe -la is recursive | 08:22 |
| Jacen | Hi all. Hoping someone here can help me. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 on an Acer Aspire 4720z laptop. A few updates ago, the volume control wheel stopped working. Anyone have any idea what's going on? | 08:22 |
| firecrotch | tonytiger123: ls -laR is uploading right now | 08:22 |
| ActionParsnip | firecrotch: cheers fellah | 08:22 |
| Bob_Dole | Don't some of these kernels get up to 22mb? | 08:22 |
| zeltak_ | C-S-B_: do you know how i find whcich script is casuing this? | 08:23 |
| poent | whats the terminal command to edit a file? | 08:23 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: Ok....that command to update the grub....just get some info on that | 08:23 |
| tonytiger123 | cool | 08:23 |
| Bob_Dole | poent..what kind of file? | 08:23 |
| poent | fstab | 08:23 |
| Dac-iPhone | It worked. Im good now. Thanks again to those who helped. See you all later. | 08:23 |
| poent | no extention | 08:23 |
| Bob_Dole | poent, nano should would. | 08:23 |
| Dextorion | poent try nano, or vim | 08:23 |
| Dextorion | Bob_Dole beat me to it | 08:23 |
| firecrotch | tonytiger123: http://pastebin.com/m4482e4f4 WARNING: it's 14000 lines | 08:23 |
| ActionParsnip | poent: sudo nano /etc/fstab | 08:23 |
| ActionParsnip | poent: unless you just want read access, in which case you can omit sudo | 08:24 |
| Dextorion | goodmorning btw | 08:24 |
| jon_high9000 | hello. I`m having a problem setting up a manual Static IP address. i have everything else filled in just not the network address. anybody know what that is and where it can be found? | 08:24 |
| ActionParsnip | firecrotch: yikes | 08:24 |
| tonytiger123 | thanks, I'll diff/grep it for the differences | 08:24 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: what is the ip address and subnet mask | 08:24 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: can you post what you get from sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq autokey | 08:24 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: the device you were refering to.....correct syntax for that? Be something like 0.0 or something? | 08:24 |
| lobak | how to view installed program using apt-get? | 08:25 |
| ActionParsnip | lobak: dpkg -l | less | 08:25 |
| tonytiger123 | thanks again guys | 08:25 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: it would be /dev/sdX for that iirc | 08:25 |
| jon_high9000 | current ip address is 192.168.2.100 netmask is 255.255.255.0 | 08:25 |
| lobak | ActionParsnip, thanks | 08:25 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: network is 192.168.2.0 | 08:25 |
| firecrotch | tonytiger123: No prob :) Have fun sorting through that mess | 08:26 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: broadcast is 192.168.2.255 | 08:26 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: Oh yeah...thanx | 08:26 |
| zeltak_ | C-S-B_: http://pastebin.ca/1533498 | 08:26 |
| poent | rgr that thank you | 08:26 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: fairly standard class c lan | 08:26 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: giving 254 clients | 08:26 |
| jon_high9000 | ActionParsnip: Thanks. | 08:27 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: np | 08:27 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: in desperation try rm -r /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/autokey | 08:27 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: then try the previous commmand again | 08:28 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: if you write the numbers in binary one under the other and perform a bitwise AND then you will see how it is calculated ;) | 08:28 |
| zeltak_ | ok will try that C-S-B_ | 08:28 |
| C-S-B_ | ActionParsnip: you're explaining subnetting? you go beyond the cod | 08:29 |
| ActionParsnip | C-S-B_: give a man a fish and he eats for a day | 08:29 |
| ActionParsnip | C-S-B_: give a man a fishing rod and he'l break it up for firewood | 08:30 |
| ActionParsnip | C-S-B_: or swap it for a fish | 08:30 |
| C-S-B_ | lol | 08:30 |
| eoke | jon_high9000: You may also find this command useful in the future "ipcalc 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0" changing the ip address and subnet as necessary. | 08:31 |
| jon_high9000 | ActionParsnip: I tried to enter a manual static ip address through Network Manager and it wouldnt accept gateway address for some reason thats why i am using etc/network/interfaces. | 08:31 |
| Jacen | Hi all. Hoping someone here can help me. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 on an Acer Aspire 4720z laptop. A few updates ago, the volume control wheel stopped working. Anyone have any idea what's going on? | 08:32 |
| Ace__ | when i try to play a video in vlc player or default video player it starts and then suddenly closes | 08:32 |
| C-S-B_ | jon_high9000: network manager is a funny one, keep trying it, it does work. sometimes the focus moves | 08:32 |
| firecrotch | Jacen: Did it work in 8.10? Ever work in 9.04? | 08:32 |
| Jacen | Yes to both. | 08:32 |
| eoke | jon_high9000: When you're in the cell changing the gateway make sure you press enter in that cell before you click the ok/accept button on the dialog. | 08:33 |
| Ace__ | when i try to play a video in vlc player or default video player it starts and then suddenly closes, can anyone help? | 08:33 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: thats what i use | 08:33 |
| firecrotch | Jacen: from the terminal, run the program xev - it will open a white window - and move the wheel up and down, and pastebin the output | 08:33 |
| jon_high9000 | ActionParsnip: ok. :) | 08:34 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: how you getting on? | 08:34 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: if you use static ip and remove network manager your bootup will be faster as nm doesnt have to load and do nothing and you dont have to wait for dhcp to complete | 08:34 |
| zeltak_ | mmm i removed the dir but im still getting errors. btw C-S-B_i really appriacte your help, thx again | 08:34 |
| zeltak_ | anyway here is the output:http://pastebin.ca/1533509 | 08:35 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_high9000: plus if you wanna change ip address you can ssh in, change the ip, restart networking and then ssh to the new ip address | 08:35 |
| Ace__ | when i try to play a video in vlc player or default video player it starts and then suddenly closes, can anyone help? | 08:35 |
| zeltak_ | C-S-B_: funny thing. after i remove the dir and issue the force remove the dir is regenerated somehow | 08:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Ace__: launch vlc from the terminal, you will get useful output when it crashes | 08:36 |
| Jacen | firecrotch: http://pastebin.com/d253ee479 | 08:36 |
| jon_high9000 | ActionParsnip: I`m doing this to get a secure way to download bittorrents. | 08:36 |
| Ace__ | it doesnt crash till i play the vid though ActionParsnip | 08:36 |
| Ace__ | its a .mpg file | 08:36 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: have you tried finding the autokey files and removing that? | 08:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Ace__: just make it crash when launched from terminal, you can read what it says then and websearch to hopefully fnd a solution | 08:37 |
| zeltak_ | ill try that now | 08:37 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 08:37 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: it's dirty | 08:37 |
| mysteriousdarren | what happens when a movie works and then the color is off? ive tried changing the preferences and such but it troubles me | 08:37 |
| silv3r_m00n | is it possible to check for corrupt files and replace them with correct ones , may be from synaptic ? | 08:37 |
| lollo3011 | ehi, maybe i'm not the first one that ask this, i've searched on google and this thing bothers to much: the ubuntu 9.04's popup notify window, is here any way to set the timer? i mean, it's stuck there on the top right for 5 seconds, and for me it's too much time! how can i set it to like 3, or 2 seconds? | 08:38 |
| cornjuliox | in windows, exlplorer will automatically truncate a folder/filename if its too long to display, so that all the icons are pretty much uniform, is there any way to get Gnome to do the same? | 08:39 |
| majuk | silv3r_m00n: If it's a bad problem, you're probably better off doing a reinstall. | 08:39 |
| Taintedside | hello | 08:40 |
| silv3r_m00n | majuk: I wrote netbook img to pen drive and upon checking the the media for errors ubuntu says 1 file corrupt | 08:40 |
| majuk | silv3r_m00n: What format partition is it? | 08:40 |
| scxtch | i have problems with video streaming? | 08:40 |
| ActionParsnip | silv3r_m00n: depends how you mean by corrupted files | 08:40 |
| Taintedside | can som1 help me? I have some problems with address solving | 08:40 |
| C-S-B_ | Taintedside: whats the prob, just ask! | 08:41 |
| silv3r_m00n | I plugged in the usb drive and on the first ubuntu menu clicked check drive for erros and it said 1 file corrupt ........i proceeded with installation which has finished fine | 08:41 |
| majuk | silv3r_m00n: Ah. Maybe /var/log/messages would tell you what file? | 08:41 |
| silv3r_m00n | majuk: how will it tell me which file | 08:41 |
| silv3r_m00n | I am checking the installation media for errors | 08:42 |
| Taintedside | I installed Ubuntu on a old Laptop, anything is set up properly (DNS, Gateway, Ip Address, wireless network) but I still cannot access internet | 08:42 |
| ActionParsnip | silv3r_m00n: once you find out what file was corrupted you can use apt-file or websearching to find the package, then reinstall it | 08:42 |
| Taintedside | is there anything I did not consider properly? | 08:42 |
| lollo3011 | sorry, no1 answers me, so i repeat the question: the ubuntu 9.04's popup notify window, is here any way to set the timer? i mean, it's stuck there on the top right for 5 seconds, and for me it's too much time! how can i set it to like 3, or 2 seconds?? | 08:42 |
| poent | do i access a samba share the same way i would access a shared folder over a windows network? | 08:43 |
| silv3r_m00n | ActionParsnip: on the installation media how do I find which file is corrupt .... | 08:43 |
| C-S-B_ | Taintedside: can you run ifconfig | 08:43 |
| majuk | silv3r_m00n: Maybe fsck? | 08:43 |
| spidla | lollo3011: what window do you mean ? | 08:43 |
| C-S-B_ | poent: yup. | 08:43 |
| silv3r_m00n | fsck the installation media ? | 08:44 |
| ActionParsnip | silv3r_m00n: you need to ceck the fsck log | 08:44 |
| majuk | silv3r_m00n: Sure. | 08:44 |
| C-S-B_ | spidla: i think he wants to reduce the display time of notifications | 08:44 |
| Taintedside | sure i can | 08:44 |
| shortcircuit | Would someone please tell me how to build modelines from my EDID block on Ubuntu 9.04 amd64? | 08:44 |
| silv3r_m00n | majuk: command ? | 08:44 |
| poent | i'm not seeing the shared computer or folder in the network | 08:44 |
| lollo3011 | you know, the one appear on the top right of the screen when you connect to a network, or some other notifications | 08:44 |
| Taintedside | C-S-B_: Sure I can | 08:44 |
| spidla | C-S-B_: OK maybe the gnome configuration editor ? | 08:44 |
| poent | samba | 08:44 |
| stooj | Is linux-headers-2.6.24-24-virtual for machines that are hosting VMs or for VMs themselves? Should I install that rather than 24-server inside a VM? | 08:45 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: Hi. I did as you said...but somehow, this system just doesnt wanna get rid of the kernel?? Even tried manually editing the grub at startup, edited the startup command as to which kernel was to be used, and still it boots up the one I want to get rid of?? | 08:45 |
| Jacen | firecrotch: Still with me? | 08:45 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: Thought I had uninstalled it?? | 08:46 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: whats uname -r say? | 08:46 |
| shortcircuit | read-edid is apparently only available in i386. There's a bug report on its absence, and the bug is listed as fix released, but it doesn't show up in canononical, universe, multiverse, security or -proposed. | 08:46 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: Well, I manually sellected an older kernel, so that command is not gonna help right now | 08:47 |
| nh2 | spidla, lollo3011: he means the new notifications in Jaunty | 08:47 |
| hemanth | Is there a svn plugin for geany , so that i can directly upload the code to svn:// ? | 08:47 |
| majuk | silv3r_m00n: I mean, if you're feeling frisky with it, fsck -a -t $FORMAT /dev/XXXX | 08:47 |
| kiminaiseah | any clustering guide for SSI ? | 08:47 |
| spidla | nh2: yeah I know.. I am searching for solution in gnome config editor | 08:47 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: tbh, seems like a whole lot of trouble for your sound, you should be able to fix the sound without this... | 08:47 |
| BuGo_laptop | i have forced synaptic to use firefox 3.0.13 ant as i start firefox it is 3.5 | 08:48 |
| majuk | silv3r_m00n: That's gonna try to autocorrect and could wreck the whole shebang. But it could fix it. | 08:48 |
| BuGo_laptop | how can i switch back to 3.0.13? | 08:48 |
| linuxson25 | C-S-B_: lol...yeah, so I have been told. Been going at this for a while now | 08:48 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: all your kernels are stored in /boot and are refernced to by /boot/grub/menu.lst | 08:49 |
| majuk | silv3r_m00n: Cripes, no, fsck -t $FORMAT /dev/XXXX -a | 08:49 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25: you can edit and delete all that by hand | 08:49 |
| majuk | My bad, can't tell my man sections apart. | 08:49 |
| BuGo_laptop | i hate siretoko... | 08:50 |
| C-S-B_ | majuk: the section at the front looks like a trunk, the back look peachy. any more help with man sections just ask me. | 08:50 |
| linuxson25_ | C-S-B_: But if I just manually edit this in gedit, wont the kernel source still be on the system? I need to purge it or something to get rid of it completely, so I can download and install a fresh one :) | 08:50 |
| C-S-B_ | kernel source? are you compiling it ? | 08:51 |
| majuk | C-S-B_: I'm a visual learner. | 08:51 |
| stochastic | can anyone tell me how to prevent my external USB drive from Auto-mounting when I plug it in? | 08:52 |
| rashed2020 | What does it mean if Ubuntu drops me into a busybox shell? | 08:52 |
| C-S-B_ | rashed2020: bad things... | 08:52 |
| rashed2020 | C-S-B_: Like..? | 08:52 |
| C-S-B_ | rashed2020: something stopped it booting properly. try dmesg | tail | 08:53 |
| rashed2020 | C-S-B_: I should mention I'm booting with a new initramfs | 08:53 |
| Jacen | Could anyone else help me? The volume control wheel on my laptop no longer changes the volume. The little tooltip comes up, showing the volume bar moving back and forth but the volume doesn't actually change. I'm using 9.04. It worked before but stopped a few updates ago. | 08:53 |
| spidla | lollo3011: sorry , no luck .. there used to be an apps/notification-daemon entry in gnome configuration daemon but it is missing in jaunty | 08:53 |
| C-S-B_ | rashed2020: you prob missed a module you needed for booting | 08:53 |
| linuxson25_ | C-S-B_: No, just trying to get rid of the kernel completely, so I can download a new, "fresh" one....cause just removing and installing it again in Synaptic doesnt do the sound trick that I am looking for | 08:53 |
| majuk | rashed2020: Like it can't find any of your hardware because it's a bad initramfs | 08:53 |
| nekubu | ola | 08:53 |
| nekubu | hello | 08:54 |
| lollo3011 | spidla, thx anyway :) | 08:54 |
| oldude67 | hi | 08:54 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25_: well apt-get purge <package> should work. | 08:54 |
| rashed2020 | C-S-B_: I didn't really edit it though. I was just playing around. I unpacked the one I had, then repacked it. So I'm guessing something has gone wrong when I was packing it? | 08:54 |
| C-S-B_ | rashed2020: does it have a different name/ | 08:54 |
| C-S-B_ | ? | 08:54 |
| linuxson25_ | C-S-B_: Allready tried that, didnt work. After removing it, it just says that it cant find the file | 08:55 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25_: or you could delete it /boot | 08:55 |
| rashed2020 | C-S-B_: Nope, I actually just moved what I had packed over the old one. Exact same name. | 08:55 |
| C-S-B_ | linuxson25_: that way you know the kernel is gone | 08:55 |
| C-S-B_ | rashed2020: what did dmesg | tail say? | 08:55 |
| rashed2020 | Nothing relevant (I rebooted so I don't have what it says exactly, but I'm positive it was nothing relevant. Just some networking stuff). | 08:56 |
| zeltak_ | C-S-B_: haleluya! the "dirty" fix worked :) | 08:56 |
| majuk | zeltak_: It always does. | 08:57 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: glad to hear it! | 08:57 |
| majuk | zeltak_: And it /feels good/. | 08:57 |
| BuGo_laptop | why firefox-3.0 is firefox 3.5 and firefox-3.5 is firefox 3.5? | 08:57 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: now go wash your hands and dont tell anyone | 08:57 |
| zeltak_ | LOL....well the ap-get system came back from the dead :) | 08:57 |

| zeltak_ | thx again C-S-B_you saved me today..now i can intsall work related stuff | 08:58 |
| spidla | BuGo_laptop: whats wrong? | 08:58 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: we both know youll be tux racing though... | 08:58 |
| zeltak_ | more like xmoto but yeah :) | 08:58 |
| Jacen | Anyone have any idea what the problem may be? The volume control wheel on my laptop no longer changes the volume. The little tooltip comes up, showing the volume bar moving back and forth but the volume doesn't actually change. I'm using 9.04. It worked before but stopped a few updates ago. | 08:58 |
| BuGo_laptop | spidla, it upgraded my firefox and somehow managed to fcuk things up so i cannot revert firefox to older version | 08:59 |
| C-S-B_ | zeltak_: i dont know xmoto? just installed warzone 2100 though, that's kickass. apart from jaunty and open al sound | 08:59 |
| rashed2020 | C-S-B_: find . | cpio --dereference -o -H newc | gzip -9 > /boot/INITRDNAME is what I used. Anything look funky? | 08:59 |
| spidla | BuGo_laptop: ouch I tried a few versions of firefox last days and I had no problems | 08:59 |
| zeltak_ | xmoto is a motor bike game...graphics are not that good but very addictive..i think u can dl it at getdeb.net | 08:59 |
| BuGo_laptop | spidla, no matter what version i force on synaptic it is still firefox3.5 | 09:00 |
| BuGo_laptop | and firefox 3.5 is not good enough | 09:00 |
| C-S-B_ | firefox3.5 > firefox 3.0 < chromium | 09:00 |

It works fine, I have sound now, but I got a problem when trying to configure a wifi connection : I type the password for the acces point, and when I reopen the window of the configured connection, the password has changed !!! It semms to have been written in hexadecimal... Is it normal, or is it a bug ? | 09:08 |

| poent | so what do i need to do to make the ubuntu computer see the rest of the windows network? | 09:10 |
| C-S-B_ | spidla: shiretoko_is just the rebranded firefox 3.5 its the same.. | 09:10 |
| zKintaro | Quick question about tsclient in fullscreen mode. How do I minimize it and use my desktop? | 09:11 |
| rashed2020 | marie-jo: I'm not sure. I'm guessing it's so people don't just click there and see your password right away. | 09:11 |

| phaitour | advowork: i've manually walked through the file system before in your situation. not sure if it's smartest thing to do, but i go to root (ie cd /) and then do 'du --max-depth=1 -h' | 09:23 |
| AdvoWork | phaitour, why not smart? | 09:24 |
| phaitour | well | 09:24 |
| phaitour | haha | 09:24 |
| phaitour | it's kinda manual | 09:24 |
| phaitour | basically you go to root look at which folder uses how much memory | 09:24 |
| phaitour | and then walk down the tree | 09:24 |
| phaitour | i'm sure someone out there has a program that probably does this for you | 09:24 |

| ubottu | eltese: 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). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 10:06 |

| Dextorion | chessnutmushroom, do your mysql database reside on your local machine? or a remote machine? | 10:07 |
| ejv | so poent you only have one hard drive in your pc, and based on this one unknown partition and NTFS, this is very odd, how/where did you install | 10:07 |
| chessnutmushroom | remote machine | 10:07 |
| poent | ejv: i used wubi | 10:07 |
| dca | hi friends ... i cannot view slideshows in my mozilla | 10:07 |
| chessnutmushroom | i was trying to access it from another machine on the same subnet | 10:07 |
| dca | hope some one will help | 10:08 |
| Dextorion | chessnutmushroom, then your user must have privileges to connect remotely. default is only local access if i recall correctly. | 10:08 |
| dca | i have installed the swfdec | 10:08 |
| chessnutmushroom | ok thanks | 10:08 |
| dca | and adobe also | 10:08 |
| chessnutmushroom | how do i list mysql users? | 10:08 |
| ejv | poent: I'm sorry I have no experience using wubi to install ubuntu, I'm not sure how it installs to the disk; using a typical ubuntu livecd, however, you'd split the 250G into 3 or 4 partitions, some for ubuntu, some for windows | 10:08 |
| eltese | Myrtti and oldude67 : Thanks for your help guys but my pendrive is nowhere to be found.. I guess I just could do it the hard way and install 7.04 and then download 9.04 there, burn it and install all over again | 10:09 |
| ejv | poent: if no one chimes in here, I suggest posting on ubuntuforums.org, or looking thru the present threads/documentation. | 10:09 |
| rashed2020 | Can anyone tell me what rootdelay does? | 10:09 |
| Dextorion | chessnutmushroom, select * from mysql.user; | 10:09 |
| oldude67 | eltese, you have to upgrade one release at a time you cant just go from 7.04 to 9.04 | 10:09 |
| zamba | what's the program resolvconf? | 10:10 |
| poent | hmm, alright. I think that wubi installs grub and then configures it to mount a folder within the windows partition. Which seems to keep it from showing up. | 10:10 |
| eltese | oldude67: yes I am aware of that. What I meant was once inside 7.04 i can download the 9.04 .iso and burn it, reboot and install that instead . | 10:10 |
| poent | thanks for the help either way ejv | 10:10 |
| grawity | poent: Not really a folder - just a single disk image. Loop device. | 10:10 |
| chessnutmushroom | ta, how do i make it readable from the xterm | 10:10 |
| chessnutmushroom | is there a switch? | 10:11 |
| ejv | poent: sry I couldn't be more of a help ;) | 10:11 |
| om26er1 | !moblin | 10:11 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about moblin | 10:11 |
| ejv | rashed2020: rootdelay, does what is sounds like. | 10:11 |
| om26er1 | can any1 tell me a bit about ubuntu moblin remix? | 10:11 |
| poent | grawity: do you know if using wubi prevents me from mounting the windows filesystem that the ubuntu image is on? | 10:12 |
| ejv | rashed2020: the purpose of the rootdelay parameter is to cause the kernel to delay for the number of seconds you specify, before mounting the root device. | 10:12 |
| grawity | poent: Nope. In fact, when using Wubi, the filesystem where Wubi is installed on, is automatically mounted under /host | 10:13 |
| Dextorion | chessnutmushroom, should be in quite readable format already. Try just to select the User field or something. select User from mysql.user; | 10:13 |
| Dextorion | chessnutmushroom, that should atleast give you the usernames. | 10:13 |
| Raizk | Hi, I'm a Linux newbie and was wondering how I can run something as root. | 10:14 |
| ejv | Raizk: sudo | 10:14 |
| insaan | sudo something | 10:14 |
| grawity | Raizk: In Ubuntu, you use the 'sudo' command. Like this: sudo nano /somefile | 10:14 |
| ejv | i love how the responses get progressively more detailed after mine.... | 10:14 |
| ejv | lmao | 10:14 |
| Raizk | ahh, ok. Thank you | 10:14 |
| grawity | ejv: The least detailed ones are typed the fastest. | 10:15 |
| chessnutmushroom | thanks | 10:15 |
| grawity | Raizk: If you ever need a shell with root privileges, use 'sudo -i' | 10:15 |
| Dextorion | chessnutmushroom your welcome | 10:15 |
| ejv | I was accurate, regardless ;) | 10:15 |
| insaan | grawity, is 'sudo -i' the same as 'su' ? | 10:17 |
| grawity | insaan: No. | 10:17 |
| grawity | insaan: 'sudo' asks for _your_ password. | 10:17 |
| grawity | insaan: And sudo can also be configured to only allow certain commands, and so on. | 10:18 |
| bernardlychan | hey how do i get the ip of someone on irc? | 10:18 |
| grawity | insaan: 'su', on the other hand, requires you to know the root's password, and that the root account be unlocked. (Ubuntu comes with a locked root account.) | 10:18 |
| grawity | bernardlychan: /whois someone | 10:18 |
| insaan | grawity, thanks ... I use the same password that's y I thought there's no difference :D | 10:18 |
| bernardlychan | ty grawity | 10:18 |
| ejv | someone ban grawity for helping too many people! ^_^ | 10:19 |
| grawity | insaan: Other distros (including Debian) ask the user to set a root password during install - and admins use 'su' to get root shell. ('sudo' is gaining popularity, though.) | 10:19 |
| insaan | lol ejv | 10:19 |
| ejv | =) | 10:19 |
| bernardlychan | grawity... how? | 10:19 |
| bernardlychan | it doesn't say ip, next to their name it says (unidentified) | 10:19 |
| grawity | insaan: On Ubuntu, root account is locked (unless you unlock it manually), and sudo -i (or sudo -s, or sometimes sudo su) is the only way. | 10:19 |
| grawity | bernardlychan: You mean 'unaffiliated'? | 10:20 |
| obhk | I've got amsn installed, but when I press Alt-F2 to run the application, I can only get amsn_received, it doesn't know amsn (although the command 'amsn' works in bash). Any idea how to solve this? | 10:20 |
| grawity | bernardlychan: In freenode IRC network, users can request a cloak that will hide their address. | 10:20 |
| ejv | my favorite part of sudoers: %<group> ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL | 10:20 |
| bernardlychan | pm grawity | 10:20 |
| grawity | packetcase: Okay. | 10:20 |
| insaan | grawity, thanks for the info | 10:20 |
| grawity | ejv: %users :) | 10:20 |
| ejv | grawity: as long as I'm the only one, certainly! :) | 10:21 |

| rashed2020 | Is there a text editor in busybox? | 10:25 |
| grawity | rashed2020: Try 'nano' or 'vi' - but I doubt that'll work.... | 10:26 |
| rashed2020 | Yeah, neither of them work. | 10:26 |
| llutz | rashed2020: try e3 | 10:26 |
| insaan | grawity, how do u hide ur address ? | 10:27 |
| rashed2020 | llutz: Nope =( | 10:28 |
| grawity | insaan: I connect through a server that I'm an admin of. | 10:28 |
| grawity | Not exactly "hiding". | 10:28 |
| grawity | insaan: In freenode, if you want to hide your IP address, you can ask for a cloak in #freenode | 10:29 |
| grawity | insaan: It would make the server show 'unaffiliated/insaan' instead of the real address. (But this only works in freenode.) | 10:29 |

| JarlG | Hello! I was wondering if there exist any easy steps to get a cooler laptop with Ubuntu 9.04. I've tried undervolting, but I thought it was a bit too advanced - I'm quite (very) new to ubuntu.. | 10:31 |
| AlexanderSupertr | llutz: thanks. :) | 10:31 |
| oldude67 | AlexanderSupertr, just sudo apt-get install gkrellm and set it the way you like it. | 10:31 |
| grawity | rashed2020: I dislike BNCs too. I see no reason to stay connected 24/7 - I cannot respond anyway. | 10:31 |
| AlexanderSupertr | oldude67: yes i'll do that now. | 10:31 |
| rashed2020 | grawity: Logs are the only reason I like BNCs. But they're horrible vulnerable. | 10:32 |
| grawity | rashed2020: Logs? screen+irssi. | 10:32 |
| Ali_nz | any ddrescue experts here? i create a *.bin file of a disk with two partitions but need to know how to mount it now! | 10:32 |
| rashed2020 | grawity: Never got the hang of irssi =/ I really should learn how to use it one of these days, though. | 10:34 |
| grawity | irssi also has irssiproxy, can be used as a simple bouncer. | 10:34 |

| oldude67 | eltese, you will have to use one of the burning programs in gnome, i believe its brasero | 11:11 |
| oldude67 | eltese, make sure its a bootable disk. | 11:12 |

| mudit | more like quicktime pro in mac/windows ! | 11:14 |
| mudit | ruge what graphic card ? | 11:15 |
| ruge | For some reason nvidia-settings will not select the max resolution possible on my screen. If i manually edit the xorg.conf the screen ends up going out of range..... | 11:15 |
| ruge | its an nVidia GeForce 9400GT | 11:15 |
| ruge | my 2nd screen si fine | 11:15 |
| ruge | my 1st screen however cant go anything beyond 1152x864.. while the max is really 1600x1200 | 11:15 |

| JediMaster | hey guys, ever since upgrading to 9.04 back when it came out my laptop's screen has been "jumping" with black lines whenever anything significant redraws the screen. The laptop is only 18 months old, it's got an ATI RS690M chipset and is using the radeon driver in Xorg. | 11:16 |
| mudit | hmm, i had this problem with ubuntu 8.04 | 11:16 |
| pixie79 | netsurf3: no it was an amazon ec2 image, looks like it doesn ot have the kernel module | 11:17 |
| JediMaster | Is there an easy way to force it to try the ati open source driver instead of the radeon one? as there's no xorg.conf now | 11:17 |
| mudit | ruge i installed nvidia drivers manually | 11:17 |
| ruge | I used hardware manager | 11:18 |
| ruge | when I had linuxmint i tried the latest nvidia driver and it bombed on me | 11:18 |

| kbp | grawity: it's Get:10 http://au.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/restricted Sources [3156B] so definitely from Ubuntu | 11:19 |
| lanzelloth | after installation i did: sudo rm /usr/bin/firefox; sudo ln firefox-3.5 firefox and that doesn't do it | 11:19 |
| ruge | Dayofswords: hmm sounds rare nowdays | 11:19 |
| Dayofswords | one vga out is built in | 11:19 |
| ruge | But hmm.... this damn video card lol | 11:19 |
| Dayofswords | another is a card i got at a garage sale | 11:20 |

The root is ext4 if that makes a difference and the system is quadcore so even if kcryptd is using 100% of one core the system should be responsive still and not lock or lag the gui noticably like it does currently. This didnt happ | 11:34 |

| grawity | kbp: Even if the address is under 'ubuntu.com' domain, the server itself is not necessarily owned by Ubuntu. | 11:34 |

| grawity | lanzelloth: Hardlinks look like copies, but they actually point to the same data. If you change one, all other change too. | 11:50 |
| lanzelloth | it doesn't have the l in front it's just -r-x... | 11:51 |
| grawity | lanzelloth: Only symlinks have 'l' | 11:51 |
| jrib | lanzelloth: because you created a hard link. Think of files as just an inode number pointing to some space in memory. You created two files with the same inode | 11:51 |
| grawity | lanzelloth: Hardlinks are technically the same thing as normal files. | 11:51 |

| roberto__ | net | 12:03 |
| lanzelloth | grawity, i mean because (I think) windows only use the filename to figure out the format | 12:03 |
| grawity | lanzelloth: It all depends on the program. | 12:04 |
| grawity | lanzelloth: On Linux, Nautilus (the GNOME file browser) also cares a lot about file extensions. | 12:04 |
| lanzelloth | grawity, does it check the extension first by default? | 12:05 |
| lanzelloth | nvm it does | 12:05 |
| grawity | lanzelloth: I'm not sure in what order, but it does check. | 12:05 |

| rashed2020 | Anyone know how long it takes to compile a kernel in a VM? | 12:05 |
| grawity | lanzelloth: One of the reasons is performance; other is ambiguity. Imagine that you have a file that starts with 'PK'. It may be a text file, or it may be a ZIP archive. | 12:05 |
| grawity | lanzelloth: But without looking at the extension, it is impossible to see if it's just a plain zip archive, or if it is OpenOffice document, or if it is a Java application packed in JAR, or if it is something entirely different that happens to use .zip archives. | 12:06 |
| grawity | lanzelloth: Reading the insides of that archive would be too time consuming - and checking the extension is fast. | 12:06 |

| lanzelloth | grawity, wait then checking the mimetype might need you to read the entire file | 12:08 |
| xamox | abranches, yeah, should their already be a .bash_profile in that directory? I had to create one. | 12:09 |
| grawity | lanzelloth: MIME types can be determined by contents, or by file extension, or by both. | 12:09 |

| xamox | abranches, I did. it's in the user directory. All that .bash_profile has it in is cd /media/music/ | 12:11 |
| Ali_nz | the more I use linux data recovery tools the more i love it | 12:13 |
| Ali_nz | testdisk and photorec are awsome | 12:13 |
| Dextorion | Ali_nz, just out of curiosity.. can you recover data on a usb drive with those? | 12:14 |
| abranches | xamox: it should be working. check if you're really editing the correct file. while loged in with the user you want, do nano ~/.bash_profile | 12:14 |
| Ali_nz | Dextorion: I would say so | 12:14 |
| Ali_nz | but i am no expert | 12:15 |
| Dextorion | got a pen drive that quit.. | 12:15 |
| JediMaster | In 9.04 how do I switch from the xorg radeon driver to the radeonhd driver? Is there a way of doing it without creating an xorg.conf? | 12:15 |
| Dextorion | Ali_nz, thats cool. just thought i ask | 12:15 |
| rashed2020 | I know photorec is for recovering deleted files, not saving dead drives. Don't know about testdisk though. | 12:15 |
| Ali_nz | Dextorion: start with ddrescue | 12:15 |
| Ali_nz | then work on the image | 12:15 |
| Ali_nz | night all | 12:16 |
| Dextorion | Ali_nz: alright. i'll do that. thanks | 12:16 |
| Kartagis | how can I find out what's causing my screen to black out? it started happening after I upgraded RAM but did a memtest, it's fine | 12:17 |
| gmachine | I am out of space (no wisecracks). Gparted shows sda2 extended file system with a size of 6.51 GB but none is used; sda5 ext 3 is 6.18GB and 6.04GB is used with 145.75 MB free; sda6 is the swap of 337.27mb. I have never used more than 2 GB for an Ubuntu install. How can I figure out why so much space is taken? This is V. 9.04 or whatever. | 12:17 |

| AcidBurn123 | is there an app to convert from mpg to mov | 12:19 |
| gmachine | what is mov | 12:20 |
| AcidBurn123 | ? | 12:20 |
| xamox | AcidBurn123, ffmpeg | 12:20 |
| xamox | I think ffmpeg will do it | 12:20 |
| user01 | Hi everybody! I already asked this question, but got no answer... What is the separate "Unifying Logic" layer in the layer cake for? I mean we got RIF, isn't that enough?! | 12:20 |
| JediMaster | mplayer will | 12:20 |
| xamox | doesn't mplayer just use ffmpeg? | 12:20 |
| grawity | xamox: I don't think so | 12:20 |
| user01 | ...ok, wrong channel :-D | 12:20 |
| InCubaTor | help.... when i go to places in the taskbar and try to open a location..... it opens with vlc-mediaplayer.. | 12:20 |
| AcidBurn123 | xamox: so? | 12:21 |
| xamox | abranches, then I tried adding alias 2music = 'cd /media/music'; 2music to that .bash_profile, but it's a no go. | 12:22 |
| arsene | hi 5 | 12:22 |
| JediMaster | I'll ask the stupid noob question again, how do you change what driver Xorg loads when there's no xorg.conf? | 12:22 |
| AcidBurn123 | is there any program in ubuntu that's a "universal video converter"? | 12:22 |
| abranches | xamox: try editing the file /etc/profile and add something like echo "Logged in" | 12:23 |
| grawity | AcidBurn123: ffmpeg, and mencoder. | 12:23 |
| jrib | JediMaster: you create one | 12:23 |
| apparle | Dayofswords: got the file from grawity | 12:23 |
| abranches | xamox: the file /etc/profile acts the same way as the ~/.bash_profile, but for all users | 12:23 |
| Kartagis | what do I need to find out temperature with gkrellm? | 12:23 |
| InCubaTor | anyone???? help.... when i go to places in the taskbar and try to open a location..... it opens with vlc-mediaplayer.. what is going on? | 12:23 |
| JediMaster | jrib: bleh | 12:24 |
| AcidBurn123 | grawity: does it also support converting from flv to mov? | 12:24 |
| jrib | JediMaster: hmm? | 12:24 |
| adreano | i am new to ubuntu & have aproblem | 12:24 |
| sebrock | Is needed to have a WM installed with a vncserver? | 12:25 |
| adreano | ??? | 12:25 |
| JediMaster | jrib: well it's currently blank, is there any way to "dump" the current auto generated config to a file? | 12:25 |
| grawity | sebrock: You need to have X installed (obviously). But a window manager isn't that much required. | 12:25 |
| jrib | JediMaster: why aren't you just using System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers ? It will handle this stuff for you | 12:25 |
| Kartagis | how can I find out what's causing my screen to black out? it started happening after I upgraded RAM but did a memtest, it's fine | 12:25 |
| JediMaster | jrib: yeah right, there's no drivers listed in there at all | 12:26 |
| jrib | JediMaster: what card? | 12:26 |
| heterosankari | adreano: yes, tell more about it | 12:26 |
| adreano | i cant hear sound | 12:26 |
| xamox | abranches, I added that and it printed logged in | 12:26 |
| JediMaster | jrib: 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS690M [Radeon X1200 Series] | 12:26 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | I was reviewing a website called "EchoSign" the websites basic premise is to provide users with the ability to electronically sign a contract. Now my I have a double barrel question is it not easy to forge these signatures and also What legal recourse could I take if contractual obligations were not obliged with someone's E-signatures? | 12:26 |
| jrib | !ati > JediMaster | 12:27 |
| sebrock | grawity, well vncserver installs the neede X libs I think. I can connect and see a background and mouse, but I have no terminal (this is a headless ubuntu server machine) | 12:27 |
| ubottu | JediMaster, please see my private message | 12:27 |
| jrib | JediMaster: see if that has anything helpful | 12:27 |
| adreano | i have pro amd | 12:27 |
| grawity | sebrock: Does the VNC server have any kind of startup script? You could try putting xterm in that. | 12:27 |
| grawity | sebrock: I'd personally just use X11 over SSH. | 12:27 |
| JediMaster | jrib: been there done that =( the machine freezes as xorg starts with the binary driver with corrupt orange/black lines everywhere | 12:28 |
| abranches | xamox: well, maybe your default shell isn't bash. it's rather strange, but while logged in with that user do echo $SHELL | 12:28 |
| jrib | MySecondChoiceIS: ask echosign about how they implement the signing. Ask a lawyer about legal issues. If you want to learn more about cryptographically signing something though, check out gpg and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_signature . Read about rsa too... | 12:28 |

| sebrock | grawity, I have tried that. says command not found (tried terminal/xterm). I have to use VNC for this matter. SSH does not work very good in this case. | 12:29 |
| jrib | MySecondChoiceIS: are you a bot? | 12:29 |
| Fox_1_ | people how have the dict file format specification document and/or the tool by which I can create dict file and fill it? | 12:29 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | lol no | 12:29 |
| MySecondChoiceIS | silly | 12:29 |
| grawity | sebrock: 1) Do you have xterm installed, 2) Why not? | 12:29 |
| sebrock | grawity, /home/sebastian/.vnc/xstartup: 11: terminal: not found | 12:29 |
| sebrock | /home/sebastian/.vnc/xstartup: 13: twm: not found | 12:29 |
| jrib | JediMaster: check bugs.ubuntu.com? | 12:30 |
| grawity | sebrock: It's 'xterm', not 'terminal' | 12:30 |
| xamox | abranches, Ahh, I think that is it! when I created the user I did useradd instead of adduser and it didn't create that for me. How do I tell it to use Bash instead? | 12:30 |
| grawity | sebrock: twm also is a separate thing. | 12:30 |
| JediMaster | jrib: took a quick peek, there's a few people complaining about the same card, no fixes/replies though | 12:30 |
| sebrock | grawity, 1) I have it installed 2) Long story, something is funny with the X11-terminal of mac. It does not update the screen | 12:30 |
| grawity | xamox: chsh -s /bin/bash username | 12:30 |
| sebrock | grawity, I have tried both as I said | 12:30 |
| grawity | sebrock: /usr/bin/xterm? | 12:30 |
| sebrock | Ill try | 12:31 |
| abranches | xamox: ah, nice. you can edit the /etc/passwd file. in your user's line, change /bin/sh to /bin/bash | 12:32 |
| sebrock | Yayy!!! | 12:32 |
| sebrock | grawity, thank you! | 12:32 |
| xamox | abranches, grawity, that worked! Thanks for all your help. | 12:32 |

| oguncak | i found it now.. it is rt73 | 13:12 |
| deany | xzanxor, mine mounts itself (when you insert a cd/dvd) | 13:12 |
| oguncak | and in synaptic it seems uninstalled | 13:12 |
| oguncak | but still i can connect to internet!!!!!!! how can it happen? | 13:13 |
| herenbdy | oguncak: are you using a wireless connection, or ethernet cable? | 13:13 |
| xzanxor | deany: mine doesn't, is the problem. | 13:13 |

| oguncak | ubuntu must be using a wireless driver.. but i can not see which!!! and acc to my laptop, my network driver is not installed via synaptic!!! should i install it? | 13:14 |
| herenbdy | oguncak: if your wireless appears to be working, I wouldn't mess with it | 13:15 |
| xzanxor | deany: http://paste.ubuntu.com/255087/ | 13:16 |
| oguncak | but it is strange my friend!!! | 13:16 |
| oguncak | i want to know how!!!!!!!! | 13:16 |
| herenbdy | oguncak: ubuntu ships with a lot of default drivers | 13:16 |
| deany | xzanxor, is chicony the device then | 13:16 |
| oguncak | would it not be more healthy if i installed the true driver? | 13:16 |
| xzanxor | deany: no, I actually have no idea what that is. Nothing else is plugged into any USB port and the output is the same when I unplug the device. | 13:16 |
| Jimmio | Hello all, I just upgraded my kernel. How do I change to /boot/grub/menu.lst to reflect the changes? I manually edited this file to add a Vista entry... Any ideas? | 13:17 |
| hybr1der | oguncak: you might be using the only true available driver | 13:17 |
| herenbdy | Jimmio: isn't that done automatically? | 13:17 |
| deany | xzanxor, sounds like its not detecting it. what version ubuntu ? | 13:17 |
| aaron11 | register #ubuntu | 13:17 |
| xzanxor | deany: yeah, I didn't think it was. 9.04. | 13:17 |
| Jimmio | herenbdy: I told it to keep the current one on the drive as I manually edited it. | 13:17 |

| suit | I get the following error when trying to compile: 'checking for openssl directory... configure: WARNING: Could not find a linkable openssl. If you have it installed somewhere unusual, you can specify an explicit path using --with-openssl-dir' | 13:17 |
| deany | xzanxor, is it powered by AC or usb? | 13:17 |
| b0le_ | Is this an appropriate channel to ask about fglrx? I just installed it, and when my computer boots the monitor goes on standby, until I switch VT. If I switch back to X's vt it works properly again. This is with Jaunty (should be fully up-to-date), and fglrx installed with the "hardware drivers" utility. | 13:17 |
| oguncak | allrihgt.. i dont like things to be covered but i think i will keep on standing sitll :( | 13:17 |
| wxjeacen | Hi all: | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimmio: you compiuled your own kernel? | 13:18 |
| suit | Now, I could easily do that but I'd rather know how to fix that problem. As in, it should recognize the right location by itself. How do I do that? | 13:18 |
| linuxson25 | can anyone direct me to a good wiki or site on compiling a kernel from source? | 13:18 |
| xzanxor | deany: it has an AC power jack but it comes on fine just from USB. | 13:18 |
| wxjeacen | is anyone here use aix? | 13:18 |
| deany | xzanxor, I personally have a liteon usb lightscribe, usb powered and its awesome :) | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | !kernel | 13:18 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 13:18 |
| deany | xzanxor, tried in other ports? aside from that, Im not much help | 13:18 |
| xzanxor | deany: it's kind of recognising it now - lsusb shows Genesys Logic, Inc. USB 2.0 IDE Adapter | 13:18 |
| Jimmio | Dr_Willis: No, I edited menu.lst and I can't figure out how to update it to reflect the current updated kernel | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimmio: 'update-grub' command. | 13:19 |
| xzanxor | deany: I think I get what's going on. It's an internal drive that I took from an old laptop and put into a USB adaptor. it seems to recognising the adaptor but not the drive. | 13:19 |
| wxjeacen | hi ,is anyone here uses AIX?? | 13:19 |
| wxjeacen | nobody??? | 13:19 |

| deany | xzanxor, do you have windows you can test it on | 13:20 |
| wxjeacen | aix ??? | 13:20 |

| asteriskmonkey | for some reason keyboard strokes dont pass though to serially conencted devies... anyone else have this issue in 9.x? | 13:20 |
| Jimmio | Dr_Willis: Ran sucessfully, but the file doesn't reflect the most recent kernel, only the oldest one. | 13:20 |
| Pici | wxjeacen: No. This is Ubuntu support, not AIX support. Try ##aix, or ##unix or #ubuntu-offtopic | 13:20 |
| xzanxor | deany: good idea. I'll give that a try. | 13:20 |
| wxjeacen | all righy | 13:21 |
| wxjeacen | all right | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimmio: normally when one updates the kernels via the package manager it auto runs that command anyway. | 13:21 |
| wxjeacen | anybody know xlc for linux ubuntu? | 13:21 |
| xzanxor | deany: cheers! I'll be back later if I haven't had any success. | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimmio: odd that its not doing it. | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | !info xlc | 13:21 |
| ubottu | Package xlc does not exist in jaunty | 13:21 |
| Jimmio | Dr_Willis: Most recent is 2.6.28-15... file reads 2.6.28-11 | 13:21 |

| zamolxes | hello. I'll have to do stuff on some boxes in a remote place without internet access. I'dd like to have a full 9.04 repo mirror on my laptop. what's the sanest way of doing this? | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimmio: hmm. i got 2.6.28-14 here... | 13:22 |
| wxjeacen | xlc compile for linux ubuntu ,anybody knows? | 13:22 |
| Jimmio | Dr_Willis: Do an update, it JUST installed. It found 11,13,14, and 15 on my PC xP | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | wxjeacen: if it can compile on linux.. it should compile on ubuntu. | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | The following packages have been kept back: | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. been a lot of kernel updates recently | 13:23 |

| Dr_Willis | myself: yes i have. i tried it the other day from the repos. | 13:24 |
| asteriskmonkey | anyreason keyboard wouldnt work in minicom or serial port terminal? | 13:24 |

| wxjeacen | <Dr_Willis> I wanna to use IBM compiler in ubuntu ,how can i get the source code of xlc for linux?? | 13:24 |
| Jimmio | Dr_Willis: I noticed that... Any ideas here? I don't think I should try to edit this myself... too much of a pita if I break it | 13:24 |
| myself | dr_willis you can get it from a repo? | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | myself: oh wait.. that was pcex i think.. the PS1 emulator.. | 13:24 |
| lesshaste | I am using mount -t cifs, how can I make the directory read/writeable by a normal user? it seems to mount it read only | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | too many similer names. | 13:24 |
| myself | yeah its pcsx2 | 13:24 |
| myself | da one for ps2! :D | 13:25 |
| Dr_Willis | not even gotten ps2 emulators to work properly under windows myself .. | 13:25 |
| myself | it works fine under windows for the most part | 13:25 |
| myself | but i dont like logging into windows | 13:25 |
| Dr_Willis | myself: the ps1 emu in the repo worked amazingly well for me. I was suprised | 13:25 |
| Jimmio | Dr_Willis: Is the UUID the drive partition? If so I should be able to just change the 11's to 15's... | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | doing a dist-upgrade now Jimmio | 13:26 |
| wxjeacen | i am doulbt that if there is someone can program here. | 13:26 |
| JeoTheLeo | hello | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimmio: if you dont understand what the UUID is.. i would NOT be touching the menu.lst then. | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimmio: is there really somthing you Need in the newer kernel? | 13:26 |
| wxjeacen | ... | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimmio: UUID defines the 'disk to use' sort of a special unique # for each filesystem | 13:27 |
| JeoTheLeo | I just downloaded the new system updates on jaunty and now I can't log onto it | 13:27 |
| JeoTheLeo | happened before and now it happened again | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | wxjeacen: go to the xlc homepage and download it? ive neer even heard of xlc. | 13:27 |
| Jimmio | Dr_Willis: I was just checking what it was, I've used the UUID features before to mount a partition of mine on startup. Who knows? Maybe it was a ID of that file, like an MD5 of sorts, better to ask then break everything. | 13:27 |
| Jimmio | Dr_Willis: I'm going to restart. | 13:27 |
| wxjeacen | all right... | 13:28 |
| === enzotib_ is now known as enzotib | ||

| wxjeacen | looha | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | is there some special reason for all the kernl updates the last week? | 13:28 |
| ikanobori | Dr_Willis: Security issues. | 13:28 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: yes, root-explout | 13:28 |
| suit | Dr_Willis: there always is :) | 13:29 |
| ikanobori | Dr_Willis: Two kernel explots. | 13:29 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: all kernel 2.4.0 - 2.6.x have root-exploit | 13:29 |
| ikanobori | One to do with SELinux/Pulseaudio, one to do with the way sockets are implemented. | 13:29 |
| eltese | Hi ! Im having some problem opening a .sh file on ubuntu 9.04. The file in question is directly on the desktop and I can't seem to locate it via terminal | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Oh there was 2 different ones>? i recall reading about one.. but must of missed the 2nd | 13:29 |
| ikanobori | Dr_Willis: Yes, two different one. | 13:29 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: i only know one too | 13:29 |
| JeoTheLeo | hmmmmm | 13:29 |
| grawity | eltese: Your desktop is ~/Desktop/ | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | then again.. i got a big 3 user system here. :) so its not a big deal for me. | 13:29 |
| suit | eltese: try 'ls -a ~/Desktop/' and tell me if you see it | 13:29 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: heise only mentioned one and heise is a good resource :) | 13:29 |
| lusepuster_ | eltese, seems odd, have you navigated to the Desktop folder? KNow it's a stupid querstion but... | 13:29 |
| patrickchoo | hello? | 13:30 |
| ikanobori | Oh wow, it even seems there are 3. | 13:30 |
| ikanobori | Oh no, this one is old. | 13:30 |
| Dr_Willis | ikanobori: bad things always come in 3's ? :) | 13:30 |
| lusepuster_ | !hi > patrickchoo | 13:30 |
| ubottu | patrickchoo, please see my private message | 13:30 |
| eltese | suit: Yes I see it if I run that command | 13:30 |
| Dr_Willis | well i updated/upgraded/dist-upgraded.. :) now to reboots to make me uber-safe. heh. | 13:30 |
| JeoTheLeo | errrm, so is there a solution to my problem? | 13:31 |
| eltese | lusepuster_: Not a stupid question, and yes. Or rather I think I have, Might be mistaken :p | 13:31 |
| lusepuster_ | eltese, then you have located it | 13:31 |

| iceroot | in the kernel | 13:31 |
| lusepuster_ | eltese, "cd ~/Desktop" and then run a "ls" | 13:31 |
| lusepuster_ | eltese, yous ee it? | 13:31 |
| ikanobori | This is one: http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=6820 and http://threatpost.com/blogs/researcher-uses-new-linux-kernel-flaw-bypass-selinux-other-protections | 13:31 |
| JeoTheLeo | hmmmm | 13:31 |
| tuxforce | i need for merge 2 text file only for difference | 13:32 |
| ikanobori | A null pointer reference and the way sockets are handled. | 13:32 |
| eltese | lusepuster_: gonna check | 13:32 |
| tuxforce | how i can do it ? | 13:32 |
| ikanobori | tuxforce: Use diff. | 13:32 |
| iceroot | ikanobori: ah ok, thx | 13:32 |
| tuxforce | ikanobori, diff on shell ? | 13:32 |
| qnix | Is it possible to get more recent kernel than linux-image-2.6.24-24 under hardy ? | 13:32 |
| ikanobori | Yes. | 13:32 |
| ikanobori | tuxforce: ^^ | 13:32 |
| tuxforce | i search for tutorial on google | 13:32 |
| tuxforce | for diff | 13:32 |
| tuxforce | tanks | 13:32 |
| ikanobori | tuxforce: Or just `man diff` | 13:32 |
| suit | eltese: If you see the file, you located it. :) You can make it executable by running 'chmod a+x ~/Desktop/yourfile.sh' and then run it via 'sh ~/Desktop/yourfile.sh', if you want to use the terminal. | 13:33 |

| lusepuster_ | Bump - is there anything I can do to improve Google Earth performance on my laptop (intel graph card), compiz/metacity about equally bad), or should I just scrap it? | 13:33 |
| tuxforce | ikanobori, is there a UI for diff ? | 13:34 |
| JeoTheLeo | hello | 13:34 |
| JeoTheLeo | I just downloaded the new system updates on jaunty and now I can't log onto it | 13:34 |
| patrickchoo | hi? | 13:34 |
| xanderdude | something like AppleScript for ubuntu? | 13:34 |
| lusepuster_ | tuxforce, vimdiff - but I don't know much about it | 13:34 |
| JeoTheLeo | happened before and now it happened again | 13:34 |
| ikanobori | tuxforce: Probably. | 13:34 |
| Uqbar | lusepuster_: disable "atmosphere", it kills performance on Intel graphics cards | 13:34 |
| outoftime | hey all - every time i wake my computer from sleep, it can't get an IP address when (re)connecting over wireless - this happens whether or not I'm connecting to the same network as before sleep - anyone heard of that? | 13:34 |
| eltese | suit and lusepuster_ : there we are :) thanks for all the help :P If u want I can give beta invites to the game in question | 13:34 |
| ikanobori | lusepuster_: vimdiff needs prior knowledge of vim. | 13:34 |
| suit | eltese: And what would that be? You awakened my interest. | 13:35 |
| Lycantrophe | ubuntu | 13:35 |
| lusepuster_ | ikanobori, it works through gvim afaik . gvim doesn't require vim-knowledge | 13:35 |
| eltese | suit: Heroes of Newerth | 13:35 |
| lusepuster_ | eltese, same here... | 13:35 |
| JeoTheLeo | hmmmm | 13:35 |
| tuxforce | ikanobori, KOMPARE | 13:35 |
| suit | Awww, heard of that! That would be great | 13:35 |
| tuxforce | ikanobori, ?? | 13:35 |
| tuxforce | ikanobori, ^^ | 13:35 |
| eltese | Well Ive got 3 invites, just priv me your mail and I'll send them | 13:36 |
| ikanobori | tuxforce: I don't know. | 13:36 |
| lusepuster_ | Uqbar, but there is still the problem that the image field overlays other windows and menus... Wrong settings somehow? | 13:36 |
| lusepuster_ | hi > eltese | 13:37 |

| JeoTheLeo | hello | 13:37 |
| JeoTheLeo | I just downloaded the new system updates on jaunty and now I can't log onto it | 13:37 |
| kaddi | hello :) | 13:37 |
| kaddi | is there a way to find out when ubuntu was last installed on a system from CD? | 13:37 |
| Uqbar | lusepuster_: I don't know about that. generally I've found that stuff that uses OpenGL won't play nicely along compiz. | 13:37 |
| JeoTheLeo | happened before and now it happened again | 13:37 |
| yareckon_ | grrrrr.... the problem with gstreamer is that it doesn't work so good | 13:37 |
| lusepuster_ | Uqbar, yeah me too - but seems to be the same problem with plain Metacity | 13:38 |
| Uqbar | lusepuster_: BTW I don't know if this is still true, but one year ago compiz did set the environment variable LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT to true, thereby preventing opengl stuff from drawing directly, which has a significant performance impact at least on Intel cards | 13:38 |
| JeoTheLeo | ok, here's another question, how do I restore my last working settings? | 13:39 |
| kaddi | JeoTheLeo try pressing alt+ctrl+f2 and log into console, if you can log in successfully that means it is an issue with gnome, I once had the issue that I had no more space left on my home partition and that made it freeze, maybe if you free up some space it'll work? | 13:39 |
| lyhana8 | hi, did anyone manage to use gtalk sidebar extension in firefox ? | 13:40 |
| Uqbar | lusepuster_: I'm not sure using plain metacity will prevent compiz from running. I just switched to openbox and have been happy since. | 13:40 |
| JeoTheLeo | I doubt that's the reason, I have a 40Gb partition made solely for ubuntu | 13:40 |
| JeoTheLeo | and I just installed it a couple of days ago | 13:40 |
| JeoTheLeo | ubuntu that is | 13:40 |
| lyhana8 | see here : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4708 | 13:40 |
| JeoTheLeo | I updated to jaunty, and today updated again | 13:40 |
| Uqbar | lusepuster_: check whether LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT is set | 13:40 |
| JeoTheLeo | it loads then gives me a dark purple screen and then black and goes on like that for a minute or so then stops | 13:41 |
| lusepuster_ | Uqbar, where do I check this? | 13:41 |

I am stuck with artifacts after the "loading GRUB" is done. How would I fix this? My CD does not have a 'rescue system'-mode. Thanks. | 13:41 |
| Uqbar | lusepuster_: in any terminal emulator inside the same session. launch a terminal and then echo $LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT | 13:41 |
| lusepuster_ | Uqbar, by using metacity --replace, I should be pretty sure compiz isn't running - or what? | 13:42 |
| deany | JeoTheLeo, sounds like a video driver issue | 13:42 |
| Uqbar | lusepuster_: I don't know | 13:42 |
| lusepuster_ | Uqbar, thanks | 13:42 |
| kaddi | JeoTheLeo you could move your gnome settings to a backup folder from console and try loading with the default settings | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | lusepuster_: yes.. compiz replaces metacity and visa-versa its one or the other. | 13:42 |
| deany | JeoTheLeo, try recovery mode and choose fix X | 13:42 |
| Ileden | I have Ubuntu Netbook Remix installed on my Acer Aspire One, and the suspend/resume was working ok at first when I tested it. After installing some additional software, the suspend has however now stopped working - it gets stuck showing just a blinking cursor at top left of the screen. Any ideas how to troubleshoot this? | 13:42 |
| kaddi | JeoTheLeo I do not know how to reverse the settings, it might be possible but I can't tell you how ;) | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | lusepuster_: you may want to install/run the 'fusion-icon' tool - it can manage that also a little nicer. | 13:43 |
| lusepuster_ | Uqbar, echo $LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT gives an empty reply | 13:43 |
| JeoTheLeo | deany, I tried recovery mode | 13:43 |
| lusepuster_ | Dr_Willis, I actually do have Fusion Icon installed :-) | 13:43 |
| Uqbar | lusepuster_: so now compiz shouldn't be running | 13:43 |
| kaddi | JeoTheLeo you might also try to create a new account and see if the new account will work. The command for that should be "adduser" | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | lusepuster_: use it then instead of teh command line. :) | 13:43 |
| JeoTheLeo | ok | 13:44 |
| JeoTheLeo | I'll try that | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis | lusepuster_: it sets some other settings as needed i recall. makes it work better/easier | 13:44 |
| Uqbar | (IIRC metacity can work along with compiz, as a decorator) | 13:44 |
| JeoTheLeo | anything else to try? | 13:44 |
| grawity | Uqbar: IIRC, Compiz does use Metacity by default. | 13:44 |
| lusepuster_ | Dr_Willis, so you say enabling fusion-icon makes things run smoother than command line compiz/metacity? | 13:44 |
| Uqbar | so using metacity doesn't necessarily imply you're not using compiz | 13:45 |
| deany | JeoTheLeo, might be compiz failing to load, tried metacity --replace from console? | 13:45 |
| kaddi | JeoTheLeo from commandline login restart gdm "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" and see if that will throw any errors that might indicate a problem. You could also check the logs /var/logs/gdm for information | 13:45 |
| lusepuster_ | Uqbar, that is strange. Compiz is running but echo $LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT gives empty line as reply | 13:45 |
| myself | has anyone gotten pcsx2 to work on linux? i need help | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis | lusepuster_: yes, i find it makes chabnging compiz stuff easier. | 13:45 |
| kaddi | is there a way to find out when ubuntu was last installed on a system from CD? | 13:45 |
| JeoTheLeo | deany, nope | 13:45 |
| JeoTheLeo | kaddi, ok | 13:46 |
| Dr_Willis | lusepuster_: i get blank for that echo also.. and i am using compiz.. at least im pretty sure i am. ;) | 13:46 |

| deany | kaddi, the oldest folder on my hd is the /mnt folder, thats around the same date jaunty was released (and I installed) might be something to go from | 13:48 |

| chessnutmushroom | what are good options for web development editors? | 13:49 |
| xanderdude | is there a way to send messages to firefox from the command line? | 13:49 |
| b0le_ | Is this an appropriate channel to ask about fglrx? I just installed it, and when my computer boots the monitor goes on standby, until I switch VT. If I switch back to X's vt it works properly again. This is with Jaunty (should be fully up-to-date), and fglrx installed with the "hardware drivers" utility. (hope I am not being too impatient / asking again too soon) | 13:49 |

| DJones | chessnutmushroom: Do you mean html editors similar to frontpage? | 13:49 |
| kaddi | deany the date from /mnt would fit, thanks. It's close enough, I only needed a rough time estimate | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | lusepuster_: i got compiz enabled that that echo $LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT is blank here. | 13:49 |
| xanderdude | like, i want it to refresh and open tabs with urls i want. from a script or something | 13:50 |
| chessnutmushroom | i wondered what people use for php etc under linux | 13:50 |
| lusepuster_ | Dr_Willis, Uqbar echo $LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT gets blank no matter if I use compiz or metacity | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | xanderdude: you can do some of that stuff from the command line check teh firefox command line arguments. | 13:51 |
| Dr_Willis | lusepuster_: whats it supposed to say? Ive never heard of that variable befor. :) | 13:51 |
| xanderdude | i want to automate some stuff. if i could make vim functions that tell firefox to reload, that alone would make my life super easier | 13:51 |

| vesayth | Hello. Does anyone have any idea why I cannot ping my home server even though I can access the websites running on it? It is running Jaunty 64 bit. Before it stopped working, I connected to it through openvpn and added an entry to push the local domain and then restarted the openvpn service, which is when the issues began to occur. | 14:39 |

| vesayth | In fact, I'm fairly confident I don't have ssh set up for my router | 14:49 |

| grawity | Jyxt: Speaking of telnet, I have seen someone in ##linux asking how to use rlogin. | 14:53 |
| StupidWeasel | should be simple "telnet [IP Address]" from your servers commandline. | 14:54 |
| Jyxt | vesayth: is this router not local? chance the device is offline? | 14:54 |
| vesayth | StupidWeasel: I don't know why I would have, I just reset the router recently and the only things I did to it was changing the local domain and forwarding several ports | 14:54 |

| js | MsMaco: ah, ok :) | 14:56 |
| jrib | Kartagis: that uses a different clipboard. i need to triple click on the touchpad which is annoying | 14:56 |
| Jyxt | js not sure about ubuntu, but i know gentoo amd64 uses native build (recent since adobe put out a 64 bit flash plugin) | 14:56 |
| js | nvm | 14:56 |
| Al1 | theatro: use audio devices | 14:56 |
| MsMaco | js: the native version isnt released as final, i think | 14:56 |
| vesayth | yeah I can telnet in through port 80 and it forwards to my web server, which doesn't help me since that doesn't give me access to the whole machine | 14:56 |
| js | MsMaco: yeah, but karmic uses a lot of alpha sw ;) | 14:57 |
| MsMaco | js: adobe only allows the final versions in the partner repo | 14:57 |
| jrib | MsMaco: touchpad means triple click and also that it pastes where the mouse cursor is instead of where my text cursor is | 14:57 |
| MsMaco | js: adobe wont allow it | 14:57 |
| MsMaco | jrib: triple click?? | 14:57 |
| js | MsMaco: huh? | 14:57 |
| jrib | MsMaco: three finger click --sorry | 14:57 |
| MsMaco | js: adobe will not allow non-final versions of flash in the repository | 14:57 |
| * jillsmitt http://itmages.ru/view.php?action=view&id=8668&key=4864e0 | 14:57 | |
| MsMaco | js: that is their contract | 14:57 |
| js | MsMaco: not even in the alpha repository? | 14:57 |
| MsMaco | js: no because then people would expect it to be in the released version of karmic | 14:58 |
| js | flash really should just die… | 14:58 |
| theatro | Al1, when you run user settings does it ask you for password for administrative tasks? | 14:58 |
| js | even moonlight is better | 14:58 |
| MsMaco | js: youtube has an html5 version available.. | 14:58 |
| Dr_Willis | yes.. flash should dry up and die... | 14:58 |
| Dr_Willis | MsMaco: thats a good sign. :) | 14:58 |
| MsMaco | jrib: ooo you have one of the no-button touchpads? | 14:58 |
| js | MsMaco: that unfortunately doesn't work with ff3.5 as it doesn't use theora :( | 14:58 |
| jrib | MsMaco: it has one button :/ | 14:58 |
| ltcabral_ | how can i add my script to path to be able to run it from anywhere? | 14:58 |
| jon_ | whats the best firewall program for ubuntu? | 14:59 |
| vesayth | I've been saying the same thing about MP3's as Ogg Vorbis is a much better format | 14:59 |
| Al1 | theatro: yep, i give it and that's it | 14:59 |
| vesayth | but I don't see that happening | 14:59 |
| Dr_Willis | ltcabral_: make a 'bin' directory in the users home dir.. when you next login it should add anything in that bin toyour default path | 14:59 |
| js | worked fine on safari, though. way better than the flash crap. | 14:59 |
| MsMaco | jon_: iptables is built in. if you want a gui, try gufw. if you just want a simpler command line interface, try ufw | 14:59 |
| Giddorah | Sigh... Why isn't Ubuntu working? | 14:59 |
| jon_ | MsMaco, ok thank you | 14:59 |
| Smd | Guys how do i reformat my ext3 drive to a ntfs | 14:59 |
| Giddorah | I mean... All other os'es work, just not Ubuntu | 14:59 |
| jrib | MsMaco: command-click may or may not work for middle click but that does something else more important for me right now and I'd prefer it not involve the mouse anyway :) | 14:59 |
| js | MsMaco: is there any way to get flash working with pulseaudio? | 15:00 |
| guestadmin | Giddorah: anything specific | 15:00 |
| vesayth | Smd: sudo apt-get install gparted if you don't already have it | 15:00 |
| MsMaco | js: it should work automatically... | 15:00 |
| dare | Giddorah: one of thousands of possibilities.. | 15:00 |
| skmidry | Uninstalling pulseaudio on my Jauntified laptop killed the sound | 15:00 |
| theatro | ltcabral_, you can make a ~/bin directory and add ~/bin to your PATH | 15:00 |
| vesayth | then go to system -> administration -> partition editor | 15:00 |
| Smd | Gparted says i cant unmount or anything lol its all greyed up | 15:00 |
| MsMaco | Giddorah: youre gonna need to be a bit more specific than "doesn't work" | 15:00 |
| skmidry | any tips on how to get alsa working again? | 15:00 |
| Giddorah | dare: But why did the last version work to install, but not 9,04? | 15:00 |
| ltcabral_ | theatro: if i put the script in ~/bin does it add to path automatically? | 15:01 |
| dare | Giddorah: there are thousands of possible reasons. i cannot know which one | 15:01 |
| js | MsMaco: sure doesn't. it tries to use alsa, fails, uses /dev/dsp and blocks everything | 15:01 |
| === Smd is now known as A | ||
| Giddorah | MsMaco: I've been here since last night trying to get my installation to work, but it just simply will not install grub. | 15:01 |
| * Dr_Willis points out that the default .profile allready adds ~/bin to the default path - if it exists. | 15:01 | |
| karex | HI, i want to ask about SSH and `sshd'. How to make sshd inactive (stop) at login? | 15:01 |
| ltcabral_ | ok thanks | 15:01 |
| Dr_Willis | ltcabral_: it does it automacially.. put scripts in ~/bin :) | 15:01 |
| vesayth | Smd: are you trying to reformat the drive that you have running ubuntu? | 15:01 |
| MsMaco | skmidry: google up "jaunty faq" and click the ubuntu linux tips & tricks blog.. i have instructions on there | 15:01 |
| === A is now known as SMD | ||
| guestadmin | Anyone know why I can ONLY send files (AIM Linux) to my mothers windows computer (After deleting her firewall) but no one else? | 15:01 |
| SMD | Vesayth: YEp LOL! | 15:02 |
| SMD | everything must go | 15:02 |
| dare | Giddorah: I assume you have tried these steps already? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 | 15:02 |
| vesayth | smd: then you're pretty much going to have to download the livecd for GParted and then reinstall Ubuntu | 15:02 |
| jrib | MsMaco: ha, I started pressing random key combinations and Fn-shift-enter seems to do it! | 15:02 |
| MsMaco | js: which version of ubuntu? it should have routed to pulseaudio instead of dsp when it tried to use alsa directly... | 15:02 |
| MsMaco | jrib: alrighty then | 15:02 |
| SMD | hmmm | 15:02 |
| SMD | u sure | 15:02 |
| vesayth | smd: or even just reinstall Ubuntu, it can reformat for you through there | 15:02 |
| === greyz is now known as greyz|sleep | ||
| MsMaco | jrib: maybe fn+enter is insert | 15:02 |
| SMD | hmmm thats effort | 15:03 |
| === magnetic_ is now known as foolano | ||
| vesayth | smd: 100%, you can't reformat a drive to another format without wiping the operating system on it | 15:03 |
| SMD | ill use wine to gi want to wipe the os | 15:03 |
| vesayth | especially from ext3 to ntfs | 15:03 |
| MsMaco | vesayth: you can upgrade ext2 to ext3 or ext3 to ext4 | 15:03 |
| SMD | i need a program that is its own os | 15:03 |
| MsMaco | OH to a different family...yeah..no | 15:03 |
| SMD | like magicpart did | 15:03 |
| vesayth | right but he wants ntfs | 15:03 |
| vesayth | I assume so he can access the drive from windows as well | 15:03 |
| dare | SMG: gparted does not work? | 15:03 |
| SMD | Yes | 15:04 |
| MsMaco | SMD: do you want to use ntfs as your system partition for ubuntu? or just a shared-data partition? | 15:04 |
| MsMaco | SMD: there are some weird bugs if you use ntfs for the system partition... | 15:04 |
| SMD | jus for windows | 15:04 |
| SMD | i got ubuntu on a good live server now | 15:04 |
| SMD | but i need ms for work :( | 15:05 |
| MsMaco | SMD: and you are trying to convert to windows without losing the data on the system? | 15:05 |
| dare | ntfs-3g is too buggy for even non-os partitions, none of my files written with it in ubuntu show up in windows.. | 15:05 |
| SMD | i dontcare about the data lol | 15:05 |
| MsMaco | SMD: oh..in that case.... windows's install cd can format a drive | 15:05 |
| SMD | nope | 15:05 |
| SMD | it says it cant lol | 15:05 |
| MsMaco | SMD: they got rid of that? | 15:05 |
| SMD | all greyed out | 15:06 |
| guestadmin | Anyone? Ive noticed to send AIM Linux uses ports 3813, 3836, 3859, 3919...etc random, only my mother can receive file transfers. Where do I start? | 15:06 |
| SMD | windows 7 wont do it for some reason lol | 15:06 |
| MsMaco | guestadmin: no ports are blocked by default, so no need to be looking at that | 15:06 |
| dare | Actually, the bug where ntfs-3g written files do not show up in windows has only appeared in vista/win7, they work with xp.. | 15:06 |
| MsMaco | guestadmin: try toggling the option to route file transfers through AIM's servers | 15:06 |
| js | MsMaco: karmic alpha 4 | 15:06 |
| skmidry | MsMaco: Will do. Tx. | 15:07 |
| MsMaco | dare: that's because ntfs on xp and ntfs on vista/7 are diffrent filesystems | 15:07 |
| guestadmin | MsMaco, thats what I dont understand, I couldnt send her anything untill I deleted "online Shield Firewall" | 15:07 |
| dare | MsMaco: i guessed so | 15:07 |
| guestadmin | Ms Maco:...ok looking | 15:07 |
| MsMaco | js: hmm dunno. but that's a #ubuntu+1 question. im running karmic too, but im using open source flash | 15:07 |
| SMD | im gonna try to format whith setuo.exe one last time | 15:07 |
| Giddorah | dare: Yes | 15:07 |
| MsMaco | guestadmin: what is "online shield firewall"? | 15:07 |
| MsMaco | guestadmin: maybe your other networking equipment (like router or modem) has a firewall? ubuntu has no rules by default though | 15:08 |
| karex | HI, i want to ask about SSH and `sshd'. How to make sshd inactive (stop) at login? | 15:08 |
| Dr_Willis | guestadmin: you mean 'disable the windows firewall' :) | 15:08 |
| dare | MsMaco: which filesystem would you recommend that both win7 and ubuntu can natively use? fat32? :-D | 15:08 |
| Pici | karex: At login or at boot? | 15:08 |
| MsMaco | dare: thats about it, unfortunately :-/ | 15:08 |
| Dr_Willis | karex: use some of the sysv tools to disable the sshd service from runlevel 2 normally | 15:08 |
| dare | :-( | 15:08 |

| MsMaco | Dr_Willis: there isnt one. the win-ext2 driver is xp only | 15:09 |

| rashed2020 | Anyone know what perfctr does? I can't find any good sites on it | 15:10 |
| guestadmin | MsMaco (She is Windows 2000 tho) | 15:10 |
| rayno_b | MsMaco - A little - with webmin's help. I know how to do NAT, but that doesn't seem to do the trick. | 15:10 |
| Lol___ | can anyone help me where with bad alloc error while playing videos on vlc? this is exact error http://pastebin.com/m7e7646e | 15:10 |
| guestadmin | Dr_Willis: She is Windows 2000 tho, Ive never been able to try with someone on linux | 15:10 |
| rashed2020 | Pici: Perfctr. I wanna know what it is and how to install it (Sysadmin class *blegh*). I was up all night compiling kernel after kernel trying to get it to work with no use. | 15:11 |
| MsMaco | guestadmin: so maybe the firewall issue's on her end? | 15:11 |
| Dr_Willis | guestadmin: i dont use windows much any more.. but if the firewall blocks stuff.. then it blocks stuff.. what was the actual question? I forgot what it was. | 15:11 |
| karex | Pici: is your way and Dr_Willis' way the same? | 15:11 |
| vesayth | So I don't seem to be able to telnet in to my home router through the default port or any other ports that I could think might've worked. I don't suppose I have any other options? | 15:11 |

| kaddi | hi, i'm looking into collecting debug info for the random intel-related freezes I get on this machine. https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-freeze-test I found these instructions, but I have 2 questions as I use kubuntu. The first one would be in step 4: How can I change my settings so that kdm is always started with intel_debug=batch on boot? and second in step 7: what is the kdm equivalent of requesting the following logs: | 15:12 |
| kaddi | sudo cp /var/log/gdm/\:0.log dri_debug/gdm.log | 15:12 |
| rblst | can anyone help me set up dual screen with intel 82852/855GM card in jaunty? | 15:12 |
| Pici | rashed2020: From a quick look, it looks to be something thats only included on the sparc kernels. | 15:12 |
| th0r | vesayth: might try ssh instead of telnet? | 15:12 |
| guestadmin | Dr_Willis: Basically i cannot transfer any files, except to her, not to any other windows or mac, Im guessing AIM1 uses an old set of ports that most computers wont recogniz? | 15:12 |
| dare | vesayth: I don't think your router exposes telnet interface over the internet | 15:12 |
| vesayth | th0r: I don't currently have ssh enabled on that router | 15:13 |
| grawity | guestadmin: There is no such thing as "old set of ports that most computers wont recognize" | 15:13 |
| grawity | guestadmin: It might be a difference between the old and new AIM clients though. | 15:13 |
| nmvictor1 | hi, i got a problem with vlc in my ubuntu 8.10 system.I changed the interface from native to skin and it worked for a good until recently where it starts with an error loading the skin and displays a choose skin file dialog. | 15:13 |
| guestadmin | grawity: Well there goes my theory ;) | 15:13 |
| MsMaco | guestadmin: try the through-AIM-servers thing | 15:13 |
| Dr_Willis | guestadmin: theres other ways to transfer files then AIM. I dont use any of the IM clients - so cant help. I tend to use the drop.io web site to transfer files to other people. | 15:13 |
| grawity | guestadmin: What IM client are you using? | 15:13 |
| rblst | can anyone help me set up dual screen with intel 82852/855GM card in jaunty? | 15:14 |
| armence | If I downloaded some sources using the package manager, where can I find the sources? | 15:14 |
| guestadmin | gravity: Hmm I did get it to work on atleat hers tho with AIM 6.5, I use AIM 1.5 | 15:14 |
| rayno_b | Hi there, I need to forward all connections to an ubuntu server on a specific port to another IP address. Can anyone assist me with this? | 15:14 |
| grawity | guestadmin: Any reasons for using such an old thing? | 15:14 |
| guestadmin | grawity ;) newest supported official Linux client | 15:15 |
| karex | Dr_Willis: where's sshd in this list (BUM)? | 15:15 |
| grawity | guestadmin: Why not, for example, Pidgin or Empathy? | 15:15 |
| Dr_Willis | karex: openssh, or sshd. i think | 15:15 |
| grawity | karex: openssh-server | 15:15 |
| IdleOne | Dr_Willis, I tried drop.io ( saw you mention it a couple days ago ) it is a little limited in file size. have you tried Pando and do you know if there is a linux version? | 15:15 |
| Dr_Willis | logically the thing with 'ssh' inthe name.. hehe | 15:15 |
| Dr_Willis | IdleOne: no idea. i rarely need more then the 200mb drop.io limit. | 15:16 |
| guestadmin | grawity: Like the old basic interface better, Im not one for newer stuff, still a terminal addict as well | 15:16 |
| MsMaco | rayno_b: try "sudo ufw enable" then edit /etc/ufw/before.rules you want to add a line starting with "-A ufw-before-forward" following a pattern like http://www.meffie.org/albums/misc01/squirrel_maco_and_jorge.jpg | 15:16 |
| MsMaco | rayno_b: no wrong link | 15:16 |
| FloodBot3 | MsMaco: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:16 |
| grawity | guestadmin: Hmm. Could you try sending something to me, for example? | 15:16 |
| guestadmin | MsMaco: where is the AIM servers tig? | 15:16 |
| rblst | can anyone help me set up dual screen with intel 82852/855GM card in jaunty? | 15:16 |
| MsMaco | rayno_b: copy and paste fail! http://www.hackorama.com/network/portfwd.shtml | 15:16 |
| guestadmin | grawity sure | 15:16 |
| grawity | guestadmin: grawity@gmail.com, send anything random | 15:17 |
| rayno_b | Will try MsMaco - Thank you. | 15:17 |
| Dr_Willis | BUM has 'Allows users to securely log into the machine remotely' "ssh" -> thats the one for ssh. :) | 15:17 |
| guestadmin | grawity ?I can send email, just not "AIM File Transfer" ;) | 15:18 |
| karex | grawity, Dr_Willis, Pici: there's only ssh: Allows users securely to log into the machine remotely (?) | 15:18 |
| grawity | guestadmin: Um, that is my AIM account :) | 15:18 |
| Dr_Willis | karex: thats what it says here in BUM. for me. | 15:18 |
| grawity | guestadmin: I do have an older one, just 'grawity', in case AIM doesn't accept that one. | 15:18 |
| Pici | karex: Yes, thats the ssh service. | 15:18 |
| guestadmin | grawity, ah, ok | 15:18 |
| Dr_Willis | karex: seems rather clear thats the SSH service . | 15:18 |
| MsMaco | guestadmin: edit accoutn -> advanced | 15:18 |

| savid | This is really weird. I can't restart compiz using "compiz --replace" because I get an error, but I can restart compiz by going through the appearance preferences tool. I looked at the source code for how the appearance prefs dlg does it, and all it does is call "compiz --replace" :-P | 15:27 |

| ltcabral | theatro: ok so how do i add it manually? | 15:32 |
| savid | Snake23, so for whatever reason, I can't restart compiz via cmdline, but the appearance prefs can restart compiz just fine... I'm trying to be able to restart from cmdline because I need compiz to reload my xmodmap from time to time | 15:32 |
| sebsebseb | raymondjtoth: you can install shiretoko from the repo | 15:32 |
| IdleOne | raymondjtoth, no | 15:32 |
| sebsebseb | raymondjtoth: the version of Shiretoko is basically Firefox 3.5 except for it not having the Firefox logo | 15:32 |
| raymondjtoth | IdleOne, and sebsebseb want to do it right never did browser update | 15:32 |

| ubottu | raymondjtoth: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 15:35 |

| Al1 | theatro: no i want to tick use audio devices in user privileges and it won't let me | 15:36 |

| sebsebseb | raymondjtoth: not sure about Intel wireless, but one way round problem wireless cards, that tends to work (or well would work if people know what to do) is using ndiswrapper and the Windows driver, of course doing it natively (using a program that is wirtten for Linux in this case) is better really than using Ndiswrapper, but I guess whatever works | 15:49 |

| asus | why i can/t install matlab2009a on ubuntu8.10 | 15:55 |
| th0r | g3org3s: the vncviewer is installed by default, so unless you want to run separate desktops on the server you have x11vnc and vncviewer ready to go | 15:55 |
| sebsebseb | thiebaude: he got kicked | 15:55 |

| sebsebseb | asus: so you had 9.04 on, and then downgraded to 8.10 (upgraded in certain ways :D ) | 15:58 |
| g3org3s | th0r i just rebooted it ask asked ... now , i connect with vncviewer <serverIP>:0 ?? | 15:58 |
| g3org3s | th0r oh i need to start it first after rebbot ? | 15:58 |
| th0r | g3org3s: no...wait. | 15:58 |
| asus | nop,i have 2 hard drives. | 15:59 |
| th0r | g3org3s: first question, is the server there near you where you can get to it? | 15:59 |
| sebsebseb | raymondjtoth: ok the driver is avaialble in hardware drivers in Ubuntu? | 15:59 |
| asus | i have 2 operation system ,one is 8.10.anthoer one is 9.04 | 15:59 |
| asus | sebsebseb,my 8.10 have AWN, | 15:59 |
| g3org3s | th0r no ... its in a server room ... i bought it online | 16:00 |
| asus | yes | 16:00 |
| sebsebseb | asus: your dual booting 8.10 and 9.04, or you got Windows on there as well, by the way how come you still got 8.10? | 16:00 |
| asus | drive have no problem | 16:00 |

| saeed_ | http://jokvsms.mihanblog.com | 16:00 |
| th0r | g3org3s: ok...can you ssh or telnet to it? You need to get to a cli prompt on the server and start x11vnc with the command 'x11vnc -display :0' | 16:00 |
| sebsebseb | asus: you can't install programs in 9.04, because the package manager is broken? | 16:01 |
| asus | because 8,10 support chinese .my 9.04 have no chinese input | 16:01 |
| g3org3s | th0r i am connected to it thry putty ... from my windows pc , and i have ubuntu on my laptop | 16:01 |
| mjj | selamun aleyküm | 16:01 |
| sebsebseb | asus: that seems odd, I am pretty sure that 9.04 should have Chinese language support as well | 16:01 |
| g3org3s | th0r i will try now x11vnc -display :0 | 16:01 |
| Mean_Admin | I got some modproble issues where apparently, "snd_atiixp: Unknown parameter `model" | 16:01 |
| th0r | g3org3s: if all goes well, you won't really see anything happen on the server, you will just go right back to the cli prompt | 16:01 |
| g3org3s | th0r do i need to sudo it ? | 16:01 |
| th0r | g3org3s: no sudo | 16:01 |
| asus | and now ,I'm use xbuntu ,to chat with you.still have no chinese language support | 16:01 |
| asus | yes ,9.04 have no awn,not good | 16:02 |
| sebsebseb | asus: on the Live CD, there are loads of languages that can be selected | 16:02 |
| Al1 | I have NVIDIA X Server. The problem is that every time i turn on comp i need set resolution. How should i save it forever? | 16:02 |
| sebsebseb | asus: you can also have AWN in 9.04 | 16:02 |
| sebsebseb | !awn | 16:02 |

| g3org3s | *** There may be "Xlib:" error messages above with details about the failure. | 16:02 |
| th0r | g3org3s: once x11vnc is running on the server, go to the laptop and issue the command 'vncviewer <serverIP>:0' | 16:02 |
| sebsebseb | awe: maybe Pici or someone like that should upgrade that factoid still talking about gutsy, well it says it's in multiverse for Gutsy, so I guess same thing for 9.04 | 16:03 |

| asus | can i?i have no good network,i 'm access internet by ->pppconfig,-->,"pon " | 16:03 |
| th0r | g3org3s: sounds like there is no X on the server. On the server give the command 'ps ax | grep X' and see if you find a line with /usr/bin/X :0 | 16:03 |
| Pici | sebsebseb: I'll take a look at it | 16:04 |

| asus | sebsebseb, | 16:04 |
| sebsebseb | Pici: good :) by the way last time I looked the !windows factoid had some mistake in it | 16:04 |
| platypus03 | hello, is it true that the default 32bit generic kernel only supports 3GB of RAM? I've looked around and people seemed to have solved it by using a server or PAE kernel | 16:04 |
| g3org3s | th0r that's all i got | 16:04 |
| asus | sebsebseb,did you hear me? | 16:04 |
| === guy2 is now known as Fringe | ||
| th0r | g3org3s: if that is all you got then there is no X11 on the server, which doesn't surprise me. Usually a commercial server won't have a desktop environment installed | 16:05 |
| thiebaude | Pici, how do i report a factoid mistake? | 16:05 |
| felipe__ | @find | 16:05 |
| g3org3s | th0r please tell me i can isntall it ? | 16:05 |
| kitply | grawity: #415430 | 16:05 |
| felipe__ | @find zebrahead | 16:05 |
| sebsebseb | asus: I think it's called awn-manager what you want to install into 9.04, by the way some people say Cairo dock is better | 16:05 |
| kitply | srry this si the bug number | 16:05 |
| asus | ok.i try | 16:06 |
| Pici | thiebaude: See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots#Using%20Ubottu | 16:06 |
| thiebaude | thanks | 16:06 |
| th0r | g3org3s: I don't know...don't know what distro (if any) the server is running, and don't know if you have true root access to the server. | 16:06 |
| th0r | g3org3s: that really is an issue you should take up with the people you rented the server from | 16:06 |
| sebsebseb | asus: you don't need to pm that, you can do your thanks and such in here | 16:06 |
| g3org3s | th0r i have root access .. its an ubuntu destop 8.10 | 16:06 |
| th0r | g3org3s: Just a sec | 16:07 |
| platypus03 | anyone know what the limit on memory is for the ubuntu 32bit generic kernel? | 16:07 |
| g3org3s | th0r tyt :) | 16:07 |
| sebsebseb | asus: I would prefer to do the Ubuntu stuff with you, in here | 16:07 |
| Total_Oblivion | how can i port forward deluge? | 16:07 |
| th0r | g3org3s: try this....a quick and easy shot....type 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop' | 16:08 |
| sebsebseb | asus: Also a lot of the time it can be good to ask a qustion in here, rather than pm, for differnet answers | 16:08 |
| th0r | g3org3s: if it works it will have to download a bunch of stuff | 16:09 |
| g3org3s | th0r 240 mb of updates/intall stuff , i just launched it :) | 16:09 |
| bill_ | i some help with gnomepilot ... i have ubuintu 9.04 and installed the app gnomepilot and i dont see it anywhere in the menu | 16:09 |
| thiebaude | asus, and other people might be having the same problem as you, or can learn | 16:09 |
| sebsebseb | asus: I am not sure how to answer that question, so better to ask in here | 16:10 |
| th0r | g3org3s: not sure if it is necessary, but I would reboot the server after the install is complete. Then log back in, and at the prompt issue 'ps ax | grep X' and see if you find a line with /usr/bin/X :0 | 16:10 |
| g3org3s | th0r okay :) will do that ... hope you are staying around for a while :p | 16:10 |

| platypus03 | anyone know what the limit on memory is for the ubuntu 32bit generic kernel? | 16:12 |
| bill_ | platypus03, 4 gig | 16:12 |
| norpan111 | raginghawk, is it just a black screen? u can not do anything? | 16:12 |
| platypus03 | bill_, you would assume so but its locked at 3GB | 16:12 |
| platypus03 | lots of others have this issue | 16:12 |
| Sonata-Arctica | Bye bye beautiful! Bye bye beautiful! | 16:12 |
| raginghawk | norpan111, its like a black screensaver | 16:12 |
| kermos | platypus03: that's because your peripherals also need memory | 16:12 |
| kermos | platypus03: Imagine you have a cake, 4 gigs in size | 16:13 |
| raginghawk | in swedish its called skärmsläckare | 16:13 |
| duerF | anyone know how to get a localized version of firefox on Jaunty ? | 16:13 |
| bill_ | platypus03, depends on the board and chipset ... most will see 3GB ... some will see up to 3.25GB .... | 16:13 |
| kermos | platypus03: now your video card may have 512 megs of RAM, to address that memory, 512megs of addressable space need to be reserved for that | 16:13 |
| platypus03 | bill_, is it using part of that memory for video? | 16:13 |
| kermos | platypus03: your just reduced it from 4 gigs to 3.5 gigs | 16:13 |
| bill_ | platypus03, the difference between 3GB and 4GB is that much for performanced | 16:13 |
| bill_ | plat if you have onboard it might be | 16:14 |
| platypus03 | bill_, I understand however I am running some VM's within it | 16:14 |
| platypus03 | and I need to dedicate a decent chunk of system memory for it | 16:14 |
| kermos | platypus03: add hard drive controllers to that (for hard disk DMA access), etc. you can quickly hit 3 gigs on a 32-bit system | 16:14 |
| g3org3s | th0r ... still installing ... :) | 16:14 |
| rashed2020 | Why does it only reserve memory for peripherals when you hit the limit? Why not when you're using 2 gigs for example? | 16:14 |
| kermos | rashed2020: memory is ALWAYS reserved for peripherals | 16:14 |
| th0r | g3org3s: yeah....it will take a while. | 16:14 |
| === Sordrann is now known as Sordran | ||
| bill_ | platypus03, i would use the 64 bit version of ubuntu if i wantedf to see all of the 4GB | 16:14 |
| kermos | rashed2020: rather, it's not memory that is reserved, but address space | 16:14 |
| g3org3s | th0r ... i really appreciate the help ... :) | 16:15 |
| platypus03 | bill_, that's what I thought, just wanted to make sure before going forward | 16:15 |
| platypus03 | thanks | 16:15 |
| kermos | rashed2020: you only have X amount of address space, your peripherals, kernel, ram, applications all have to share this | 16:15 |
| rashed2020 | kermos: Oh, ok that makes sense. I thought it was actual memory that was reserved when you have 4 gigs. | 16:15 |
| bill_ | platypus03, no problem | 16:15 |
| th0r | g3org3s: when it is completed we will do some quick checks and then try a remote login. If it all works, go back to that url I sent you and follow it to make the vnc automatic at bootup | 16:15 |
| IdleOne | How do I make a desktop launcher for a python script? | 16:16 |
| g3org3s | th0r alright :) | 16:16 |
| kermos | even with PAE, peripherals will still be placed at the top of the 4 gig range (OS may or may not use PAE after all) | 16:16 |
| kermos | besides the extra table indirection sucks with PAE | 16:16 |
| kermos | use 64-bit instead | 16:16 |
| th0r | g3org3s: and what we are installing is xfce, not gnome. So if you want it to look like your laptop you will have to install gnome (sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop). But it will take a lot longer | 16:16 |
| mrec | hi, is there any commandline wpa/wifi configuration tool available? | 16:16 |
| platypus03 | kermos, the system is pretty damn bare bones, i assumed at least 128 would be used for video, it has no other peripherals and one HD | 16:16 |
| bill_ | i have ubuintu 9.04 and installed the app gnomepilot and i dont see it anywhere in the menu | 16:16 |
| kermos | platypus03: how much vid mem? 128 or more? | 16:16 |
| platypus03 | 128 | 16:16 |
| platypus03 | im trying to figure out what possibly else is eating up the mem | 16:17 |
| kermos | platypus03: also, kernel and user space are separated, on a 32-bit system, never expect to see more than 2 gigs for user space | 16:17 |
| kermos | that's my general rule writing software | 16:17 |
| platypus03 | kermos, understood on that front | 16:17 |
| g3org3s | th0r isisnt that the command i just used ? | 16:17 |
| th0r | g3org3s: not quite...notice the missing 'x' "ubuntu" not "xubuntu" | 16:18 |
| Jyxt | mrec: wpa_supplicant is command line | 16:18 |

| platypus03 | like from a shell | 16:18 |
| g3org3s | th0r sorry ... hehe | 16:18 |

| bill_ | platypus03, yep called gnomepilo | 16:19 |

| platypus03 | bill_, try opening a shell and running gnome-pilot | 16:19 |
| platypus03 | does it launch? | 16:19 |
| kermos | platypus03: well your hard drive also reserves memory for DMA. So does your CD/DVD drive. I forget off the top of my head though how much | 16:19 |
| norpan111 | The icon-package gnome-colors does not affect system-wide anymore. Is there a way to fix that? | 16:20 |
| kermos | platypus03: sound card may also reserve addressable space for DMA | 16:20 |

| arber4444 | i want to install erd commander 2008 its live cd and i dont have any idea how to do that on ubuntu | 16:26 |
| platypus03 | kermos, so lets say I had 2GB of ram in this box to begin with, why did ubuntu show I had 2GB available, when I moved to 4, it suddenly used up 1G of that for peripherals | 16:26 |
| arber4444 | i want to install erd commander 2008 its live cd and i dont have any idea how to do that on ubuntu on usb | 16:26 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: do you know about 'sudo apt-get install NameOfSoftware' ? | 16:27 |
| EagleScreen | can i configure pbuilder to use debootstrap instead of cedebootstrap? | 16:27 |
| Pici | arber4444: Er. Isn't ERD Commander a boot disk in itself? From microsoft? | 16:27 |
| kermos | platypus03: Ok, say you have 2 gigs of RAM, and 1 gig of space that is used for peripherals, kernel, etc. Your total addressable space usage is 3 gig out of 4 gig. Everything fits neatly. | 16:27 |
| arber4444 | yeah | 16:27 |
| arber4444 | and i want to put it on usb | 16:28 |
| Pici | arber4444: Then what does that have to do with Ubuntu? | 16:28 |
| arber4444 | nono | 16:28 |
| kermos | platypus03: now you upgrade to 4 gigs of RAM. You still have 1 gig needed for peripherals and OS. Now your total needs are 5 gig addressable space but you only have 4 gigs available. *something* has to give....RAM is the one that looses. | 16:28 |
| arber4444 | of curse dosent have do to anything | 16:28 |
| mrec | I'm surprised what a mess WPA wlan is in linux whow | 16:28 |
| arber4444 | but youre not understanding me | 16:28 |
| platypus03 | kermos, but before I put in 4, I had just 2G, it showed me 2G in 'free' for example | 16:28 |
| mrec | is there any way to stop the wpa_supplicant process in ubuntu? | 16:28 |
| Pici | arber4444: Well, this channel is only for Ubuntu support. Perhaps ##windows would be a more appropriate place to ask? | 16:28 |
| arber4444 | i need erd on usb | 16:28 |
| kermos | platypus03: Yes, because there was no conflict | 16:28 |
| kermos | platypus03: With 4, there is a conflict | 16:29 |
| jonny_b1 | about:crashes does not work in my firefox...it says invalid url | 16:29 |
| platypus03 | kermos, ah, there we go | 16:29 |
| arber4444 | ok it dosent metter | 16:29 |
| platypus03 | curious how I track down what was competing for space | 16:29 |
| kermos | platypus03: you're trying to squeeze 5 gigs of stuff into 4 gigs of addressable space. Just not going to work :) | 16:29 |
| platypus03 | sigh, I need to move to 64bit for more addressable space | 16:30 |
| kermos | platypus03: using a PAE enabled kernel may give you the full 4 gigs, but you'd be better off just going to 64-bit | 16:30 |
| platypus03 | yeah PAE is shoddy from my past experience | 16:30 |
| kaddi | jonny_b1 what were you trying to do? | 16:31 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, yes | 16:31 |
| kermos | platypus03: PAE simply adds an extra layer to the page table which means 1 extra look up by the MMU for every memory access | 16:31 |
| platypus03 | right | 16:31 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin i know about that one | 16:31 |
| jonny_b1 | kaddi: my fire ofx is crashing all the time and i want to get a crash report as diableing extensions etc had no effect | 16:31 |
| platypus03 | kermos, unfortunately I need to run windows in a VM for specific applications and they're all java based so it's killing my virtual memory space, i need to allocate more of my system mem to it | 16:32 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, what about it? | 16:32 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: excellent, well when you apt-get a program, the program is looked for in a list of places and that line was part of the list | 16:32 |
| kaddi | jonny_b1 have you tried safe-mode? or a new profile? | 16:32 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: so that line you added means you can 'apt-get' stuff from the server at that address | 16:32 |
| norpan111 | okey | 16:32 |
| norpan111 | so i should do "sudo apt-get install gnome-colors | 16:33 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: give it a try | 16:33 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, i dont know package name | 16:33 |
| norpan111 | wierd | 16:33 |
| kermos | platypus03: ugh, honestly for that I'd really recommend a 64-bit system with 8 gigs of memory. That way both OS' have plenty to go around | 16:33 |
| jonny_b1 | kaddi: works fine in safe which i used for troubleshooting but the normal keeps crashing,tell me about this new profile thingy? | 16:33 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: yeah,... I don't know the reason they gave you the deb repository in the first palce | 16:33 |
| platypus03 | kermos, I was afraid of that but you're definitely right, I came in here hoping I could get around rebuilding :) | 16:33 |
| platypus03 | ah well | 16:33 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: but try auto-completing with tab, so something like sudo apt-get install gnome-[tab] or something | 16:34 |
| platypus03 | thanks for the assistance kermos | 16:34 |
| kermos | there is no replacement for displacement. RAM is displacement in the software world :) | 16:34 |
| mrec | does anyone know a way how to stop wpa_supplicant? | 16:34 |
| platypus03 | indeed | 16:34 |
| platypus03 | thanks again | 16:34 |
| kaddi | jonny_b1 basically you can run firefox --profilemanager which will show the profile manager, there you can create a new virgin profile and start it, to see if it is a problem with your profile that is causing the crashes, but since you already now, that it is on of the addons, that is causing the trouble, I thinik that is unnecessary | 16:34 |
| Total_Oblivion | difference between ubuntu gentoo and suse? | 16:35 |
| th0r | Total_Oblivion: they use different letters | 16:35 |
| lesshaste | I am getting this all the time in dmesg "CIFS VFS: Send error in SETFSUnixInfo = -5" for my samba mount. Anyone know about this error? | 16:35 |
| jonny_b1 | kaddi: no its not an add one as they are diasbled and it still crashes | 16:35 |
| Mean_Admin | my sound worked in 8.10 and works no more in 9.04, how can I downgrade ALSA to some previous versions ? or at least the drivers | 16:35 |
| Total_Oblivion | th0r: aha. | 16:35 |
| kaddi | jonny_b1 have you checked the themes? maybe go back to the default theme and see if the problem persists | 16:36 |
| jonny_b1 | kaddi: its on default theme,i followed the mozilla trouble shooting | 16:36 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: usually though, they should give a .bz or tar file that you would just drag&drop into your Appearence window and it would install the icons | 16:36 |

| johnc | How can I enable Flash on Ubuntu in Firefox? I already installed all the flash packages. | 16:39 |
| kaddi | jonny_b1 from what I gather it is a known bug, that firefox does not collect information on ubuntu. the line "about:crashes" is not working for me either and there are bug reports pointing this out since hardy. | 16:39 |
| kain_ | flash worked out of the box when i installed it through synaptic | 16:40 |

| HACKER10011 | lo | 16:40 |
| coz_ | johnc, ah did you just install ubuntu -restricted-extras ? | 16:40 |
| kaddi | jonny_b1 I can't really help you with this. Maybe try #ubuntu-mozillateam or the support channel of Firefox | 16:40 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: sometimes they're just added to the icons that can be used in a custom appearance | 16:41 |
| johnc | coz_: this was after an upgrade, so I don't remember whether or not I had that package installed. | 16:41 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: take a look you like in the list and 'customize' it (once you do, go to the icon tabs and choose the new ones) | 16:41 |
| jonny_b1 | kaddi: okthanks for your help | 16:41 |
| coz_ | johnc, ok how ar e you testing if flash is working | 16:41 |
| kaddi | jonny_b1 run "firefox --profilemanager" in command line in the window that opens select "create new profile" and start firefox | 16:41 |
| johnc | coz_: Imho, it is a bug, for the simple reason that the package is installed and the description of the package says that it should work. | 16:41 |

| norpan111 | should be same icon theme ;D | 16:43 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: try other icon sets ? I don't know what to say, customizing the look is the easiest way to get icons to change, as far as I know | 16:43 |

| coz_ | johnc, ok reinstall that | 16:48 |
| Guest7630 | is there somebody to help me with sound please? | 16:48 |

| diddy | What does this mean? The following packages have been kept back: | 16:54 |
| mbeierl | Ileden: right - so the window manager has crashed then. The "I can open a window but cannot type" is very typical of having lost your window manager | 16:55 |

| Ileden | mbeierl: ok... how do I get it back? :) | 16:56 |
| Sertse | hi how do you chnage the webkit in konqueror? | 16:56 |
| mbeierl | Ileden: a "backdoor" way to get the window manager alive again is to use "ctrl-alt-f1" to get to a text-based login, do the login, then "export DISPLAY=:0.0" then "metacity --replace&" from there | 16:56 |
| sebsebseb | Sertse: you don't Konqueror uses KHTML, Webkit is based on KHTML | 16:56 |

| johnc | coz_: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+question/1804 <- same problem | 17:12 |
| kaddi | it might just be looking at the wrong folder? | 17:12 |
| EagleScreen | guntbert: that error has to have more details | 17:12 |
| mbeierl | Ileden: so somehow the startup of them has been removed from the session manager. Try going into the gnome-session-manager and see if they are missing altogether, or just disabled | 17:13 |
| dragonrigs | hi | 17:13 |
| dragonrigs | does anyone know why im baned | 17:14 |
| Pirate_Hunter | !offtopic > dragonrigs | 17:15 |
| ubottu | dragonrigs, please see my private message | 17:15 |
| TimothyA | I just installed a new ubuntu, and threw apache2 on it. and immediately I get this crap; apache2: bad user name ${APACHE_RUN_USER} | 17:15 |
| TimothyA | starting to get sick of that issue | 17:15 |
| bastidrazor | dragonrigs, ask in #ubuntu-ops or #freenode | 17:15 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: garbage in, garbage out | 17:15 |
| hbekel | ? | 17:15 |
| TimothyA | hbekel; and how do you propose for me to fix this issue? | 17:15 |
| TimothyA | It's been haunting me through 9 ubuntu installs already | 17:16 |
| TimothyA | the same dang thing over and over | 17:16 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: tried looking what's inside that variable? | 17:16 |
| mbeierl | TimothyA: how did you install apache? | 17:16 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: maybe that user name doesn't exist on your system? | 17:16 |
| TimothyA | mbeierl; apt-get install apache2 | 17:16 |
| guntbert | EagleScreen: not really, the rest seems to be consequences - but I'm gonna prepare a pastebin - /var/log/apt/term.log seems to be the correct log file? | 17:16 |
| Pseudo_Bob | Hey so I've got this really weird problem with my sound where only the white jack of my sound card has any output, and it's extremely quiet and staticky. Anyone have suggestions? | 17:17 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: there's only only gnome-session-properties available, but that does provide a list of startup programs. they aren't on the list, but I don't remeber seeing them there previously either. | 17:17 |
| EagleScreen | guntbert: dpkg.log also can be interesting | 17:17 |
| coz_ | Pseudo_Bob, did you open a terminal and type alsamixer to see if anything is muted or volume turned down? | 17:18 |
| Pseudo_Bob | coz_: Yeah, it's all up. | 17:18 |
| guntbert | EagleScreen: ok | 17:18 |
| coz_ | Pseudo_Bob, mm not sure then did you go to the #alsa chaneel and ask? | 17:18 |
| TimothyA | mbeierl; any idea? | 17:18 |
| Pseudo_Bob | coz_: Nope, I'll do that. Is it the same server as #ubuntu? | 17:19 |
| coz_ | Pseudo_Bob, yep :) | 17:19 |
| coz_ | Pseudo_Bob, just type /join #alsa | 17:19 |
| Pseudo_Bob | coz_: Thanks | 17:19 |
| mbeierl | TimothyA: no... I had done an aptitide install apache2 and it "just worked" | 17:19 |
| edbian | TimothyA: You might want to try lighttpd as a work around | 17:20 |
| mbeierl | Ileden: System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications ? | 17:20 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: yes, thats the same | 17:20 |
| TimothyA | lighttpd isn't an option | 17:20 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: how do you start apache? | 17:21 |
| Lingus | Is there any simple way of building a .deb package? I'm used to Arch/Pacman's PKGBUILD/makepkg, and find all the tutorials unecessarily complicated. I don't have X on the Ubuntu machines. | 17:21 |
| xangua | !alien | 17:22 |
| ubottu | RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 17:22 |
| bastidrazor | Lingus, configure make checkinstall | 17:22 |
| TimothyA | hbekel: apache2 -k start | 17:22 |
| guntbert | EagleScreen: please see http://pastebin.com/f662de19b | 17:22 |
| mbeierl | Ileden: hmmm... I don't have a window manager or gnome panel there either. I wonder where these get started after all ?!? | 17:22 |
| muhammadalisiddi | need help regarding fetchmail configuration | 17:23 |
| crank | Hello, how can i install new icons? I'm using openbox | 17:23 |
| Lunixed | !LAMP | 17:23 |
| ubottu | 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+) | 17:23 |
| mbeierl | TimothyA: your various attempts at installing apache2 - were they on new, clean systems, or the same system, upgraded per release? | 17:23 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: good question :) | 17:23 |
| Lunixed | !lamp-server | 17:23 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about lamp-server | 17:23 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: tried 'sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start' instead? | 17:23 |
| benjoldersma | are there any rss readers that integrate with jaunty's notifyOSD? | 17:23 |
| mbeierl | Ileden: for now you /could/ try adding custom start programs for metacity and gnome-panel in that startup programs | 17:23 |
| muhammadalisiddi | hey can anyone help me | 17:24 |
| muhammadalisiddi | i need help on fetchmail configuration | 17:24 |
| edbian | !ask | muhammadalisiddi | 17:24 |
| ubottu | muhammadalisiddi: 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. :-) | 17:24 |
| mbeierl | muhammadalisiddi: not sure. | 17:24 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: as a workaround, thats a good idea | 17:24 |
| muhammadalisiddi | ok | 17:24 |
| Lingus | bastidrazor: Thanks, trying checkinstall now | 17:25 |
| TimothyA | hbekel; . . . . . . . | 17:25 |
| TimothyA | that is an WORKAROUND | 17:25 |
| TimothyA | and it f*cks things up in the long run | 17:25 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: what? | 17:25 |
| Pirate_Hunter | can someone tell me the name of the cli application that allows me to change when hds can be checked either by day,month etc? | 17:25 |
| TimothyA | since you have to chmod 777 anything you want served up by apache | 17:25 |
| TimothyA | else it will go "waaah! I can't read it! handfeed it meh! waaaaaaaaah" | 17:25 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: no you don't, you just have to configure it CORRECTLY | 17:25 |
| EagleScreen | guntbert: try sudo dpkg --configure -a | 17:25 |
| TimothyA | i thought the default configuration would just allow me to set it up and forget about it until I do anything serious with it | 17:26 |
| TimothyA | right now, it can't even set itself up out of the box | 17:26 |
| guntbert | EagleScreen: will do | 17:26 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: think again, then | 17:26 |
| mbeierl | Ileden: iirc, these things are started as part of some sort of gdm sequence... somewhere in a directory under /usr or something ... give me a moment to search some more | 17:26 |
| TimothyA | for even the MOST BASIC ACTION | 17:26 |
| TimothyA | like... STARTING UP | 17:26 |
| Pici | TimothyA: Please calm down. | 17:26 |
| jrib | TimothyA: you can ignore that. It's because of the way debian/ubuntu setup the apache2.conf | 17:26 |
| TimothyA | jrib; which is basically "break it"? | 17:26 |
| OEP | I need udev help. I need a script to run when any flash drive is plugged in. At some point I need to know the mounting point of the flash drive. Anybody have an idea? | 17:26 |
| mbeierl | TimothyA: did you try aptitude purge apache2 then installing it? Maybe there's just a bad config file somewhere are re-setting it might help? | 17:26 |
| jrib | TimothyA: it's not broken. apache2 should start on its own after install. Use "sudo service apache2 start" | 17:27 |
| TimothyA | mbeierl; this is an entire new ubuntu setup | 17:27 |
| tedst | hey imma n00b programmer | 17:27 |
| TimothyA | apache2 was the first thing that was installed | 17:27 |
| tedst | wanna learn and assist in dev | 17:27 |
| mbeierl | TimothyA: and no errors in install? Distro? | 17:27 |
| TimothyA | no errors in install | 17:27 |
| TimothyA | ubuntu 8.0 | 17:28 |
| TimothyA | *8.10 | 17:28 |
| thiebaude | tedst: not here | 17:28 |
| jrib | !enter | TimothyA | 17:28 |
| ubottu | TimothyA: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 17:28 |
| Pici | TimothyA: apache2 -k is not the proper way to start apache2 on Ubuntu. use /etc/init.d/apache2 start or invoke-rc.d apache2 start | 17:28 |
| guntbert | EagleScreen: still the same http://pastebin.com/d702f5232 | 17:28 |
| TimothyA | i know, i friggin know. but it didn't come up in my mind until I pressed enter | 17:28 |
| TimothyA | Pici; then why did they include that option? | 17:29 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: btw, apache listens on port 80 by default | 17:29 |
| TimothyA | hbekel; of course it does, it's an HTTP server | 17:29 |
| tedst | where?? | 17:29 |
| TimothyA | it would be silly if it would listen on 65536, wouldn't it? | 17:29 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: that should give you a hint as to why sudo is required | 17:29 |
| mbeierl | TimothyA: grep "APACHE_RUN_USER" -r /etc resulted in this for me /etc/apache2/envvars:export APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data | 17:29 |
| woodyjlw | I dont like yahoo or gmail or msn for email and I want to find a linux email that is free, something@linux.com dosnt have to be linux but would like it to be handled by linux, currently running ubuntu 9.04 is there @ubuntu.com emails? | 17:29 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 17:29 |
| EagleScreen | guntbert: your update-grub fails | 17:30 |
| thiebaude | !evolution | 17:30 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about evolution | 17:30 |
| Pici | TimothyA: Because that is how the package was coded. Theres no real reason to patch that feature out. | 17:30 |
| mbeierl | TimothyA: and grep www /etc/passwd | 17:30 |
| mbeierl | www-data:x:33:33:www-data:/var/www:/bin/sh | 17:30 |

| TimothyA | mbeierl; I'm getting the same | 17:30 |
| EagleScreen | guntbert: try $ sudo update-grub | 17:30 |
| guntbert | EagleScreen: will do | 17:30 |
| silv3r_m00n | on my samsung n110 notebook on which I installed ubuntu today is now showing ... end_request : I/O error , dev sda , sector 242505412 <<what does this mean ? | 17:30 |
| jrib | TimothyA: you need to use the init.d script, not start apache yourself. | 17:30 |
| TimothyA | jrib; sometimes I need to do an quick reboot | 17:30 |
| TimothyA | but even then, usually after reboot, apache won't boot up any way | 17:30 |
| jrib | TimothyA: sudo service apache2 restart. Or sudo service apache2 reload. Whatever you want to do | 17:31 |
| amx109 | when i try to enable extra visual effects via the 'appearance' setting, i get a 'cannot enable desktop effects' message. can any one help me figure out why this is? | 17:31 |
| TimothyA | until I explicitly tell it to boot up through the sudo blabla | 17:31 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: do you know what a "priviledged port" is? | 17:31 |
| TimothyA | yes | 17:31 |
| jrib | TimothyA: so does using the service command work or not? | 17:31 |
| hbekel | hbekel: and you still call using sudo a "workaround"? | 17:31 |
| TimothyA | jrib; apparently it does. but I'm supprised why nobody ever mentioned that anywhere :| | 17:31 |
| guntbert | EagleScreen: you mean "expr: non-numeric argument" ? I'm gonna look into that then, I have just been called away, thank you for your time and input | 17:31 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: hey, I remember what *might* have caused this. earlier today I did switch first time to the regular ubuntu desktop using desktop-switcher, added some workspaces, and switched back. everything worked fine, but it's possible I didn't do a reboot until a while ago, and it was after boot that the problem came up | 17:32 |
| TimothyA | hbekel; when I'm logged in as root.... yes? | 17:32 |
| mbeierl | TimothyA: apache needs to start as root, and then it drops down to www-data. All your web files need to be owned or at least readable by www-data | 17:32 |
| * TimothyA is still configuring his box, so that is justified | 17:32 | |
| n00buntu64 | hello | 17:32 |
| silv3r_m00n | anybody ? | 17:32 |
| hbekel | TimothyA: oh, i thought you weren't allowed to do that around here :) | 17:32 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: (workspaces have to be added via the regular ubuntu desktop, or so I read from the forums) | 17:32 |
| jrib | !helpme | silv3r_m00n | 17:32 |
| ubottu | silv3r_m00n: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 17:32 |
| TimothyA | hbekel; guess what? I normally don't do, like I just said | 17:32 |
| n00buntu64 | how can i get TS to work on ubuntu 64bit pls? | 17:32 |
| woodyjlw | is there a linux alternative to gmail yahoo and msn email and search engines? | 17:32 |
| n00buntu64 | i read the steps & it might as well not be english :( | 17:33 |
| edbian | silverraindog: /dev/sda is a harddrive. I/O means input output. Your computer is having trouble reading your hard drive | 17:33 |
| mbeierl | Ileden: so you're switching between the regular desktop and the NBR "easy" desktop | 17:33 |
| raw_ | a | 17:33 |
| edbian | woodyjlw: You want a linux alternative to google? Why not use google? | 17:33 |
| edbian | n00buntu64: What is TS? | 17:33 |
| OEP | teamspeak maybe? | 17:34 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: I did a single switch only in order to add the workspaces, and I use NBR desktop | 17:34 |
| n00buntu64 | teamspeak, sorry | 17:34 |
| n00buntu64 | i've got the client installed, but my friends tell me i'm garbled | 17:34 |
| n00buntu64 | i can hear them clearly tho | 17:34 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: but that switch, or adding the workspaces, sounds like something that might have caused this... | 17:34 |
| mbeierl | Ileden: so you very well might have found a bug in the desktop switch helper - it might not toggle back and forth cleanly... | 17:34 |
| edbian | killall opera does seam to do it. What is the terminal command that is more powerful? | 17:34 |
| woodyjlw | google and yahoo and msn always try to hijack | 17:34 |
| n00buntu64 | sorry, brb, gtg AFK for a min | 17:35 |
| jrib | TimothyA: well it's documented in /usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian which all good debian/ubuntu admins read :) | 17:35 |
| edbian | woodyjlw: Your browser is being hijacked and you're running linux? | 17:35 |
| thiebaude | woodyjlw: are you on windows? | 17:35 |
| woodyjlw | ubuntu 9.04 | 17:35 |
| n00buntu64 | back | 17:35 |
| thiebaude | oh,ok | 17:36 |
| edbian | thiebaude: I have never heard of a browser hijacker that runs on linux | 17:36 |
| woodyjlw | yahoo screwed up my search and there home page is m.yahoo | 17:36 |
| OEP | n00buntu64, I don't know that just sounds like a mic problem to me; does the mic work in other apps? | 17:36 |
| kaddi | woodyjlw have you tried resetting your default searchpage/homepage? | 17:36 |
| woodyjlw | running firefox so dont know how they did it | 17:37 |
| woodyjlw | yes | 17:37 |
| thiebaude | edbian: i haven't, but in windows one time my home page and desktop was changed | 17:37 |
| n00buntu64 | OEP: yes; i can use it in windows fine | 17:37 |
| nullren | if /var/root existed previously as a directory with files and other dirs inside of it, how would `sudo cp .file /var/root` destroy it by turning /var/root into a copy of .file? | 17:37 |
| woodyjlw | I did and it says www.yahoo.com but it takes me to m.yahoo | 17:37 |
| edbian | thiebaude: They run rampant in windows ;) | 17:37 |
| OEP | n00buntu64, what about other apps in ubuntu though? | 17:37 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: I'll go check if there's somthing about this already on the net, now that I have a hunch. | 17:37 |
| n00buntu64 | haven't tried, i rarely use mic in other apps's, what can i test it in? | 17:37 |
| thiebaude | edbian: yes very true, on a unsecure OS | 17:37 |
| Ileden | mbeierl: wish I knew what went wrong there :) | 17:37 |

| woodyjlw | guess I can keep googleing till I find something lol | 18:04 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: 4.3 is a huge improvment over 4.2 | 18:04 |
| Teknoenie | oh i know | 18:04 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, how do i know i get 4.3 when i sudo apt-get ? | 18:04 |

| Cowboy9 | anyone know a program that will make your desktop a slide show? I have looked everywhere | 18:06 |
| Mean_Admin | Cowboy9: kde 4.3 :P | 18:06 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, stupid thing is i have 9.10 =) but ubuntu+1 is rather dead | 18:06 |
| mbeierl | Teknoenie: gvfs-mount does indeed work. | 18:06 |
| norpan111 | they never anwer questions | 18:06 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: whacha mean ? | 18:06 |
| Mean_Admin | man I am so preaching kde 4.3 today | 18:06 |
| Teknoenie | mbeierl: I've gone down the rabbit hole wrt to the bugs. It just sucks. | 18:06 |
| ldlework | How can I determine where the configuration file for XMonad was installed if I installed the package via Synaptic or apt-get? | 18:06 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: oh right | 18:06 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, yeah | 18:06 |
| mbeierl | Teknoenie: but then I put all the printers on Linux, and do network discovery for printers. The poor windows users just need to go out and discover the smb shared printers on their own :( | 18:07 |
| Cowboy9 | mean_admin how do I get kde | 18:07 |
| nerdy_kid | how to make CPU freq scaling show in Gnome Power Manager? | 18:07 |
| MsMaco | Cowboy9: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop | 18:07 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, i think kde looks wier | 18:07 |
| Mean_Admin | Cowboy9: pretty much http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/08/install-kde-43-in-ubuntu-jaunty-904.html | 18:07 |
| norpan111 | d | 18:07 |
| Teknoenie | There is also a bug where, at least in my environment where I have sub domains under our domain tree, if you don't specify --disable hostname on the command line when joining it assumes the default domain | 18:07 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: it's really nice, I mean, it's much more OS 2.0 | 18:07 |
| Cowboy9 | Mean, what will I be giving up to use KDE? | 18:08 |
| MsMaco | Cowboy9: he's telling you to use kde instead of gnome (a different desktop environment) because it has more features | 18:08 |
| Mean_Admin | Cowboy9: hard disk space ? | 18:08 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, some screenshots it looks more like an older OS... dont know why.. like incomplete | 18:08 |
| MsMaco | Cowboy9: you can use the same apps in both. i still use firefox and pidgin and gwibber in kde | 18:08 |
| Lartza_ | HOw do you use gnomebaker? HOw can I burn my iso? | 18:08 |
| MsMaco | norpan111: have you see kde 4.3? | 18:08 |
| === yoni is now known as CrAzYoNi | ||
| mbeierl | Teknoenie: have not hit that one ... I've got a small school (k-8, 4 pcs per class = ~36 computers) | 18:08 |
| MsMaco | norpan111: or 4.2 even? | 18:08 |
| norpan111 | MsMaco, 4.2 yes xD | 18:08 |
| Johnny_boy | edviant :S wen i close the terminal the dock dissepears :( ? | 18:09 |
| Cowboy9 | msmaco mean is KDE better? why does everyone use gnome as the default? | 18:09 |
| norpan111 | MsMaco, the file explorer looks wierd i think | 18:09 |
| Mean_Admin | Cowboy9: oh man, sorry, kde 4.3 is the visual part of your operatin system, it's not really a valid choice for ''make your desktop a picture slideshow'', I said that half-jokingly, sorry | 18:09 |
| nerdy_kid | hey guys, cant find the gconf key to show CPU frequency scaling in GNome Power Manager | 18:09 |
| MsMaco | Cowboy9: ubuntu uses gnome as default. kubuntu uses kde as default | 18:09 |
| Johnny_boy | edvian :S wen i close the terminal the dock dissepears :( ? | 18:09 |
| MsMaco | Mean_Admin: oh thats not one of the options? | 18:09 |

| MsMaco | Mean_Admin, Cowboy9: thats an option | 18:09 |
| Mean_Admin | norpan111: it's actually pretty neat, I mean, it's very smooth and stylish, look at some youtube videos | 18:10 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, i will! but will i get double of all apps? | 18:10 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, like two of everything | 18:10 |
| MsMaco | Cowboy9: kde is more configurable than gnome, so to prevent people getting confused by seeing too many options, some distros default to gnome. most offer kde as well though | 18:10 |
| Mean_Admin | MsMaco: it can totlally do it, à la OS X | 18:10 |
| norpan111 | Mean_Admin, like i see all gnome apps same as kde apps.. so its very much | 18:10 |

| sebsebseb | sqwable: not that difficult to set up a proper dual boot set up, but even better get rid of Windows, or run it inside Ubuntu in a virtual machine, depending on how much RAM you have, and what apps you want to run | 18:54 |
| sqwable | sebsebseb, the only reason I use windows is for the games I play | 18:55 |

| haf1ztang | how do i learn about linux? | 19:39 |

| bruno123 | comrade_tuttle see if this helps http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1146513 | 19:39 |
| __theIdiotBox | xu, you hust have to enable/add proper repos | 19:39 |
| grawity | haf1ztang: you experiment, read manuals, and use Google. | 19:39 |
| xu | __theIdiotBox: which repos in particular? | 19:39 |
| MsMaco | xu: or open a terminal and put this in: "sudo apt-get install texlive-full xchat adobe-flashplugin" | 19:39 |
| Flare183 | haf1ztang: Ask stuff about it. | 19:39 |
| haf1ztang | __theIdiotBox: how do ppl use linux in working environtment? | 19:39 |

| __theIdiotBox | haf1ztang, google is your friedn...and use ircs | 19:40 |
| bruno123 | One suggestion in that thread comrade_tuttle is select Open Volume Control. Select the Switches tab and make sure that the Digital/Analog switch is disabled. | 19:40 |
| MsMaco | haf1ztang: with a mouse? | 19:40 |
| __theIdiotBox | haf1ztang, almost all servers are on linux, globally | 19:40 |

| bruno123 | comrade_tuttle did you read second page and the possible solutions | 19:44 |
| MsMaco | haf1ztang: well if you want to get technical, linux is only the kernel...a collection of drivers, a scheduler, and bit to allocate memory | 19:44 |
| sudobash | yeap so learn the kernel first | 19:45 |
| Seidos | I typed man kernel last night, hehe | 19:45 |
| MsMaco | haf1ztang: so youre gonna need to be more specific. im guessing you dont mean to memorize every line of the kernel and work on the drivers just yet | 19:45 |
| xu | MsMaco: yes it is a new install. after issuing that command it works (from the cli). thanks! | 19:45 |
| MsMaco | xu: no problem. it just didnt have a list of packages yet | 19:45 |
| MsMaco | haf1ztang: i suggest starting out with learning your way around the desktop and learning the basic commands needed to admin a desktop system. once youve got that down, if you want to learn system administration, youll have the necessary base knowledge | 19:47 |
| haf1ztang | ok | 19:47 |
| MsMaco | haf1ztang: start with the Official Ubuntu Book or the Ubuntu Pocket Guide (the latter is a free pdf) | 19:47 |
| haf1ztang | MsMaco: is that possible for me learn unix in linux? | 19:48 |
| g3org3s | How can i restore the old startup setting on my server ? | 19:48 |
| MsMaco | haf1ztang: when its time to learn system administration stuff, the Linux Professionals Institute Certification study books are good for teaching you more obscure commands and the differences between different distros like Red Hat and Debian or Ubuntu | 19:48 |

| Flare183 | !firewall | icarus | 19:49 |
| ubottu | icarus: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 19:49 |

| guntbert | xtrmzero: no, I agree - I only wanted to understand your need. please install startupmanager, then go to system/administration/startup-manager, "advanced" tab, and choose "limit kernels..."; I suggest you keep one "old" kernel (just in case), so would limit it to 2 | 20:11 |
| needhelp | flintwingel thanks, I will try that | 20:11 |
| papadopc | g3org3s: you can uninstall networkmanager after that | 20:12 |

| g3org3s | papadopc and how do i do taht ? :/ sorry for being a noob .. | 20:13 |
| joaopinto | girasquid, no | 20:14 |
| joaopinto | because the dependencies may overwrite other stable dependencies | 20:14 |

| g3org3s | guntbert my local is windows , but i have a laptop with ubuntu right next to me :D | 21:16 |
| jseiser | benc1, can you check the system monitor or top or htop while running the script? | 21:17 |
| guntbert | g3org3s: on windows you will have to install an X server (like cygwin/X) and then tell putty to "tunnel X connections" | 21:17 |
| wasted_ | darlykaiser, could you dump the command you put in and the full error you receive? | 21:17 |
| rachit_vit | i am installing drupal on lamp should i login as root or normal user | 21:18 |
| g3org3s | guntbert and on ubuntu ? | 21:18 |
| rachit_vit | ya | 21:18 |
| darlykaiser | $ sudo fdisk -l | 21:18 |
| talntid | di||itante: I had to reboot after that log delete, for it to take effect | 21:19 |
| gnosis | MsMaco: ok, we've done as you suggested. It stops on a blank screen with a flashing cursor | 21:19 |
| scott_ino2 | how can i be sure other than glxinfo, that im using the radeonhd driver? | 21:19 |
| papadopc | anyone having network problems after upgrading to kernel 2.6.28-15 ? | 21:19 |
| talntid | di||itante: df -i showed the right information, but df -h did not. I rebooted, and they both show the same now :) | 21:19 |
| benc1 | jseiser: how can I tell which one is the script? | 21:19 |
| MsMaco | gnosis: but not a login one? | 21:19 |
| jseiser | by the name I would assume. What script are you running? | 21:19 |
| MsMaco | gnosis: any visible errors or anything? how long did it take to boot? 2 seconds? 20? a minute? | 21:19 |
| gnosis | MsMaco: oh, now it' progressed. it says "sda: sda1 sda2 <" | 21:19 |
| guntbert | g3org3s: do you mean from ubuntu to another linux machine? | 21:19 |
| darlykaiser | wasted: $ sudo fdisk -l | 21:20 |
| MsMaco | gnosis: er...thats a little odd | 21:20 |
| hbekel | jseiser: the patch adds one line to config.def.h, it's likely you will have to add that line to your config.h in the layouts struct as well. | 21:20 |
| gnosis | MsMaco: nevermind, it's contiued again. | 21:20 |
| g3org3s | guntbert yes , ihave one at home , adn the other one is the server , not here | 21:20 |

| hbekel | jseiser: not sure what make config clean means for dwm, sorr | 21:21 |
| darlykaiser | wasted: like what? | 21:21 |
| wasted_ | darlykaiser, step one is to know if you have an ide, scsi, or sata harddrive. then you would use.. | 21:21 |
| wasted_ | darlykaiser, sudo mount | 21:21 |
| guntbert | g3org3s: from an ubuntu machine you just type ssh -X <remoteuser>@<remotemachine>, test it with xeyes :-) | 21:22 |
| hbekel | jseiser: i'd just add the line and make again | 21:22 |
| jseiser | ok | 21:22 |
| jseiser | I will try that.. work is over in 20 minutes :D | 21:22 |

| === Guest91135 is now known as Karlos | ||
| GuidMorrow | !pastebininit | 21:25 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebininit | 21:25 |

| guntbert | !pastebin | GuidMorrow | 21:25 |
| ubottu | GuidMorrow: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic | 21:25 |
| darlykaiser | wasted a regular one on my laptop | 21:25 |
| MsMaco | gnosis: oh dear. try booting from a live cd and running fsck on it. | 21:25 |
| GuidMorrow | !pastebinit | 21:25 |
| ubottu | pastebinit is the command-line equivelent of !pastebin . Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output. Simple usage: command-name | pastebinit | 21:25 |
| gnosis | MsMaco: alright | 21:25 |
| MsMaco | gnosis: also possible the hard disk is going :-/ | 21:25 |

| DrDuck | Could someone explain to me how to compile programs in ubuntu? Particularly C, as I'm having issues. I'm really not used to the linux/ubuntu platform. I'm a formal windows user, but have moved on to linux because supposedly it's a more natural environment for programming! Thanks | 21:27 |
| MsMaco | DrDuck: first make sure you have build-essential installed | 21:27 |
| darlykaiser | wasted built in | 21:28 |
| DrDuck | MsMaco: I do | 21:28 |
| wasted_ | darlykaiser, and ubuntu is installed on it? | 21:28 |
| MsMaco | DrDuck: know how to do a makefile? | 21:28 |
| ednos | DrDuck: type cc mysource.c -o myexecutable -Wall? | 21:28 |
| MsMaco | DrDuck: the usual steps with automake are "./configure && make && make install" | 21:28 |
| lstarnes | DrDuck: the steps can vary though | 21:28 |
| MsMaco | ednos, DrDuck: and -Werrors | 21:29 |
| ignascio | videos are frezzing in firefox ubuntu, any ideas? | 21:29 |
| darlykaiser | wasted: yes, because i've transformed ubuntu into xubuntu | 21:29 |
| Isaacariah | for scripting & program writing in ubuntu, which would be the better language to learn, perl or python? | 21:29 |
| guntbert | g3org3s: thats not the one I wanted, please show me the one with "host key verification failed" | 21:29 |
| ignascio | anyone? | 21:29 |
| ednos | DrDuck: are you trying to compile someone else's package, or are you trying to compile your own C program? | 21:29 |
| MsMaco | Isaacariah: perl is still the sysadmin favourite, but newer sysadmins are going for python... and much of ubuntu's tools are python | 21:29 |
| DrDuck | MsMaco: all I've done thus far is write a simple program using gedit, called samp.c, I've also tried to compile it with the terminal but no luck | 21:29 |
| Isaacariah | is there much of a pro/con difference between the two? | 21:30 |
| xand_ | can't set a capture device in alsamixer, can anyone please help me out ? | 21:30 |
| MsMaco | DrDuck: gcc -Wall -o samp samp.c | 21:30 |
| lstarnes | Isaacariah: you should probably learn both, but if you have to choose one, python may be better | 21:30 |
| Isaacariah | im talking from someone who's a microsoft VB6 programmer, looking to learn a language I can use on ubuntu | 21:30 |
| MsMaco | DrDuck: should compile samp.c and output "samp" as the executable | 21:30 |
| skyler | is there a reason my flash videos are choppy? | 21:30 |
| MsMaco | DrDuck: will also show all warnings | 21:30 |
| lstarnes | Isaacariah: perl has more third-party packages while python is more object-oriented and works better for applications | 21:30 |
| DrDuck | MsMaco: gcc: samp.c: No such file or directory | 21:30 |
| DrDuck | gcc: no input files | 21:30 |
| skyler | i have the appropriate drivers im pretty sure | 21:30 |
| Isaacariah | object oriented, like it | 21:30 |
| MsMaco | DrDuck: are you in the directory where you saved it? | 21:30 |
| lstarnes | DrDuck: what are you compiling? | 21:30 |
| wasted_ | darlykaiser, sorry I seem to be confused. are you trying to mount a partition or a harddrive | 21:30 |
| DrDuck | samp.c is on my desktop btw if that means anything | 21:30 |
| skyler | im on an eeepc using ubuntu 904 | 21:30 |
| MsMaco | lstarnes: DrDuck's own code | 21:30 |
| MsMaco | DrDuck: so cd ~/Desktop | 21:31 |
| ednos | DrDuck: you need to be in the same directory as the file, so type "cd Desktop" | 21:31 |
| gnosis | MsMaco: it's getting the same error | 21:31 |
| Isaacariah | Ill give Python a look then, im guessing I can use it to script AND to write applications with a GUI | 21:31 |
| MsMaco | DrDuck: so youre in the same directory | 21:31 |
| lstarnes | Isaacariah: perl also is somewhat object-oriented, but it's done in a differentway | 21:31 |
| g3org3s | guntbert http://pastebin.com/m6dde62 | 21:31 |
| lstarnes | Isaacariah: perl also has packages for GUI applications | 21:31 |
| MsMaco | gnosis: fsck is giving the error? | 21:31 |
| Isaacariah | lstarnes, thanks, youve been very helpful | 21:31 |

| hbekel | rachit_vit: not sure how drupal delivers mail | 21:37 |

| MsMaco | DrDuck: personally, i use /home/maco/src (shortcut: ~/src) to hold sourcecode | 21:38 |
| lstarnes | star3am: make sure that you ONLY use root powers when it is absolutely necessary | 21:38 |
| star3am | lstarnes: yup server .. mean one too :) moving from gentoo .. i wonder why sometimes :p | 21:38 |
| ednos | then in the terminal, you can use cd ~/whatever-you-named-it | 21:38 |

| bankix | Good eavening. | 21:43 |
| nh2 | ok, "killall gnome-settings-daemon && gnome-settings-daemon &" did the trick | 21:43 |
| LoneWlf | So thats it then, I'm invisible? *sighs* | 21:43 |
| MsMaco | gnosis: mint is just ubuntu with a different theme and java and flash preinstalled | 21:43 |
| MsMaco | gnosis: hardware incompatibilities are the same | 21:43 |
| guntbert | LoneWlf: we see you | 21:43 |

| guntbert | *then | 21:45 |
| MsMaco | Seidos: package diveintopython will pull down the text of the book Dive Into Python | 21:46 |

| IdleOne | MsMaco, description says it is for experienced programers | 21:47 |
| rs122 | how can I install a driver for a printer that comes with rpm packages? | 21:47 |
| ednos | it's a hard disk in your computer, right? | 21:47 |
| domino14 | whatever my linux partition is currently running, its teh same hard drive | 21:47 |
| g3org3s | guntbert it worked, asked for password , supplied it , and now im in :) now ? | 21:47 |
| domino14 | ednos: yes | 21:47 |
| ednos | ah ok | 21:47 |
| IdleOne | MsMaco, you think a beginner could use that? | 21:47 |
| ednos | domino14: and it's probably mounted now? | 21:47 |
| domino14 | yes | 21:47 |
| domino14 | the linux partition is | 21:47 |
| MsMaco | IdleOne: i dont recall how its descriptions do... | 21:47 |
| hbekel | domino14: via ssh? | 21:47 |
| ednos | domino14: how about the windows one? | 21:47 |
| MsMaco | Seidos: maybe http://www.openbookproject.net/thinkcs/python/english2e/ if youre a beginner | 21:48 |
| domino14 | ednos: i don't think so. i usualyl mount that by clicking on it in the gui, and entering my password | 21:48 |
| domino14 | its one single hard drive with a windows partition | 21:48 |
| domino14 | and a linux | 21:48 |

| ednos | domino14: type mount and find out which partition (/dev/sd-something) is your linux one | 21:48 |
| domino14 | thats the linux one | 21:48 |
| ednos | domino14: ok | 21:49 |
| bankix | shenhaZ: Do you have a windows emulator (parallels) installed perhaps? | 21:49 |
| guntbert | !rpm | rs122 | 21:49 |
| ubottu | rs122: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 21:49 |
| ednos | domino14: type ls /dev/sda* | 21:49 |
| LinuX2half | whats that suppose to mean | 21:49 |
| MsMaco | IdleOne: "dive" is sort of the definitive python book though | 21:49 |
| Seidos | MsMaco: I already started reading diveintopython off the website. I think I downloaded the book but I wanted to read green on black so I wouldn't strain. I will join the python channel. Thank you | 21:49 |
| ednos | domino14: /dev/sda1 is probably windows | 21:49 |
| domino14 | /dev/sda /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 /dev/sda5 | 21:49 |

| mlout | does the nvidia closed source driver affect battery life positively or negatively? | 21:51 |

| ednos | domino14: /media/VOLUMENAME usually | 21:52 |

| shenhaZ | bankinx: ok, thx | 21:53 |
| guntbert | g3org3s: don't run graphical apps as root generally, do you mean you are logged into the destktop session as root? | 21:53 |
| ednos | domino14: no problem | 21:53 |
| g3org3s | guntbert yes ... but i think there is no X on the server ... | 21:53 |
| terrordrone | hey | 21:53 |
| terrordrone | do u know HTML keylogger people ? | 21:54 |
| _UsUrPeR_ | MsMaco: are you positive that RAID hardware is only supported from the Alternate installation CD? | 21:54 |
| rs122 | isn't it must be very simple to install any driver designed for linux? | 21:54 |
| guntbert | g3org3s: I was asking about the local session | 21:54 |
| MsMaco | _UsUrPeR_: 100% positive | 21:54 |
| bankix | rs122: They pointed you to alien which converts the rpm to deb which you can install. | 21:54 |
| domino14 | btw fdisk -l lists the partitions with their filesystems, and yes /dev/sda1 was HPFS/NTFS | 21:54 |
| g3org3s | guntbert yes local is root , logs in automatically , fresh install | 21:54 |
| MsMaco | _UsUrPeR_: though im not guaranteeing that all RAID hardware is supported | 21:54 |
| MsMaco | _UsUrPeR_: jsut that the absolutely none of it is supported on the live cd | 21:54 |
| ednos | domino14: thanks | 21:54 |
| guntbert | !root | g3org3s *don't do that* | 21:54 |
| ubottu | g3org3s *don't do that*: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 21:54 |
| tabletop | does anyone know anything about trinity core 2 | 21:54 |
| _UsUrPeR_ | MsMaco: is there a list of RAID devices supported that I can reference? | 21:54 |
| rs122 | there is anything to do to install that driver? | 21:55 |
| MsMaco | _UsUrPeR_: maybe on ubuntuhcl.org .... otherwise, google around | 21:55 |
| MsMaco | _UsUrPeR_: i dont know how up to date that site is | 21:55 |
| _UsUrPeR_ | msmaco: ok thanks :) | 21:55 |
| g3org3s | guntbert its just an old laptop ... i dont care much about it ... | 21:55 |
| bankix | rs122: Yes. Convert it via alien first. Then install using dpkg. | 21:55 |
| guntbert | g3org3s: please add another account, add it to the admin group and work with that account from now on - the ubuntu system is built to not use the root account for log in | 21:56 |
| rs122 | bankix: i'm trying that now | 21:56 |
| stefg | _UsUrPeR_: are you certain that you want a hardware raid-controller? mdadm is going raid just fine and at 0 cost | 21:56 |
| domino14 | my computer remotely was only on cuz my dad was using it.. is there a way to pop up a message saying "sup dad" | 21:57 |
| guntbert | g3org3s: but you said "i think there is no X on the server" - so what did you want to do with vnc? | 21:57 |
| rs122 | bankix: where is the alien pack is located? | 21:57 |
| LinuX2half | what plugin do I need to install to my sea monkey to have the best security? | 21:57 |

| rs122 | bankix: just the alien or all of those other stuff that included with it? | 22:00 |
| ednos | icarus: gparted | 22:00 |
| bankix | rs122: You need to install all dependencies to get a specific package. | 22:01 |
| ednos | icarus: google it, get the LiveCD, boot from it, and there's a nice little GUI tool to resize partitions. It works with NTFS, too. | 22:01 |
| rs122 | bankix: a funny word dependencies! | 22:02 |
| icarus | cool | 22:02 |
| bankix | rs122: They're dependencies, because one package depends on parts or functions of another. Without installing the dependency, it would't work. | 22:02 |
| guntbert | g3org3s: ah ok, you don't need a display on your server - back to the immediate problem, there seems to exist a local authentication problem - did you add another user yet? | 22:02 |

| IdleOne | G-Norris, hang sround sooner or later someone will ask a question | 22:18 |
| IdleOne | around* | 22:19 |
| G-Norris | I know yall always say that | 22:19 |
| Terabyte | I've got a PC with nothing but an ethernet connection on it, can I install ubuntu over the internet? | 22:19 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: nsplugin is the flash plugin. Have a risk of have it installed, but damaged, so, is better remove. | 22:19 |
| rs122 | IdleOne: I will try | 22:19 |
| G-Norris | yes you can | 22:19 |
| G-Norris | tera you can | 22:19 |
| Terabyte | What should I do norris?> | 22:19 |
| ednos | G-Norris: I got one for you--FTP downloads hang on my Wubi install, irregardless of software (wget, firefox, filezilla, gftp, Nautilus) | 22:19 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: nsplugin true name is flashplugin-nonfree. | 22:19 |
| G-Norris | hld on | 22:19 |
| ednos | G-Norris: they download between 2KB and 4MB of octave-3.2.2.tar.bz2 before stopping | 22:19 |
| G-Norris | Can i have a channell operator | 22:19 |
| G-Norris | I need a chanel op | 22:20 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: now, you must find a way to get libflashplayer.so (PS: MUST use Firefox, or will not work!!!) | 22:20 |
| IdleOne | G-Norris, #ubuntu-ops | 22:20 |
| G-Norris | ok | 22:20 |
| stefg | !install | Terabyte | 22:20 |
| ubottu | Terabyte: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

| Ben64 | not that hard to find libflashplayer.so | 22:20 |
| Terabyte | thanks | 22:20 |
| IdleOne | Terabyte, you want to do a net install? I don't believe you can with ubuntu but I could be wrong | 22:21 |
| GuidMorrow | I thought ubuntu used .deb package | 22:21 |
| stefg | Terabyte: not even USB available ? | 22:21 |
| IdleOne | GuidMorrow, it does | 22:21 |
| nexace | hello - i am having problems conceptualizing how to mount a raid array in ubuntu. since my 'fdisk -l' shows the drives individually, can i just mount one of them? | 22:21 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: Ubuntu USe, but flashplayer on .deb is rare. I GOT THE SOLUTION. | 22:21 |
| Ben64 | GuidMorrow: but flash for 64 isn't in repos afaik | 22:21 |
| Ben64 | GuidMorrow: what cpu do you have | 22:21 |
| rs122 | IdleOne: I couldn't find libxml1 with synaptic | 22:21 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: OK, listen | 22:21 |
| GuidMorrow | amd64 | 22:21 |
| Ben64 | yeah but which | 22:22 |
| GuidMorrow | windsor | 22:22 |

| ldlework | Can anyone PLEASE inform me how to correctly run something during boot BEFORE Session login. So the app is /running/ /during/ the login screen.... Please I cannot figure this out and "update-rc.d myscript start 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 . | 22:22 |
| g3org3s | Anyone knows how i can install gnome without the network manager ? | 22:22 |
| Ben64 | GuidMorrow: or actually, gimme "cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -i lahf" | 22:22 |
| Ben64 | g3org3s: why? | 22:22 |
| nexace | i am having problems conceptualizing how to mount a raid array in ubuntu. since my 'fdisk -l' shows the drives individually, can i just mount one of them? | 22:23 |
| IdleOne | rs122, hmmm you right it doesnt seem to be in synaptic | 22:23 |
| mphill | Is Ubuntu ever planning to put Xen back in into the repos? KVM seems almost useless compared to all the support and sofware out there for Xen. | 22:23 |

| weslei | ubuntu-br | 22:23 |
| Ben64 | g3org3s: you can set a static ip with it | 22:23 |
| g3org3s | Ben64 how ? | 22:23 |
| Terabyte | mmm | 22:23 |
| Decnikov | This is kinda pointless me being here. | 22:23 |
| Ben64 | g3org3s: *click* -> manual configuration | 22:23 |
| Decnikov | God I miss windows. | 22:24 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: Dis it? | 22:24 |
| stefg | nexace: bad idea ... run sudo 'mdadm --detail --scan' first to check for known raid arrays | 22:24 |
| Terabyte | see i have no cd drive and no flopy drive, i have a usb slot, and a network connection. i can't see the one i want? | 22:24 |
| Terabyte | which option? | 22:24 |
| g3org3s | Ben64 its a server at a farm .. and it doesnt have X :/ | 22:24 |
| nexace | stefg: which is the bad idea? mounting one or raid in general? | 22:24 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: Did it? | 22:24 |
| Ben64 | g3org3s: ah interesting | 22:24 |
| stefg | nexace: mounting physical partitions which are part of a raid array | 22:24 |
| GuidMorrow | Ben64: Can't run command "cat" : "flags: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt rdtscp lm 3dnowext 3dnow rep_good pni cx16 lahf_lm cmp_legacy svm extapic cr8_legacy" | 22:25 |

| nexace | ok | 22:25 |
| rs122 | IdleOne: so where it could be installed at? | 22:25 |
| IdleOne | rs122, looking... | 22:25 |
| Ben64 | GuidMorrow: ok, your cpu can support flash 64bit | 22:25 |
| ldlework | Does anyone know how to run a flipping boot script?! | 22:25 |
| nexace | stefg: mdadm returned no data | 22:25 |
| Ben64 | so all you need to do is remove all flash's (as someone explained how above) and get the 64bit flash from adobe's site | 22:25 |
| rs122 | 2. Download Driver | 22:26 |

| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: Ok, you are SURE who don't have ANY flashplugin instaled (Principaly SWFDEC, it is buggy!!!) | 22:26 |
| needhelp | hi, how do I merge many small avi-files to one big ? | 22:26 |
| IdleOne | rs122, I believe you can install libxml2 and it should work | 22:26 |
| Ben64 | http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz | 22:26 |
| stefg | nexace: so the array wasn't created on this machine / installation ? | 22:26 |
| g3org3s | Ben64 its laready static :/ | 22:26 |
| nexace | stefg: honestly i dont completely understand it, but the raid array seems to exist in or near the BIOS as can enter setup before any booting occurs | 22:26 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: If have an plugin installed BOOM!!! | 22:26 |
| Ben64 | g3org3s: so problem solved? :S | 22:27 |
| Out_Cold | so i just randomly noticed that compiz isn't running for some reason. can someone take a look at this and suggest any ideas? http://pastebin.com/m7a40db76 | 22:27 |
| g3org3s | Ben64 no ... i installed xubuntu-desktop ... when it restarted nm , the server wouldnt connect to the itnernet :/ i had to reintialise it | 22:27 |
| ednos | G-Norris: do you still want someone to ask you questions? | 22:27 |
| Ben64 | g3org3s: well why are you installing xubuntu-desktop on a server without a monitor? | 22:28 |
| rs122 | IdleOne: it's already marked installed | 22:28 |
| g3org3s | Ben64 yes exactly .. i want to be able to use the desktop on that server , thru vnc | 22:28 |
| bastidrazor | Out_Cold, possibly check in #compiz too. they might have answers if none are found here. | 22:28 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: Do you instaled a flashplayer before? | 22:28 |
| Out_Cold | thanks | 22:28 |
| IdleOne | rs122, ok then continue with the how to | 22:28 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: If no, you're reay. | 22:29 |
| stefg | nexace: oh, i see. you've got to diffentiate between diffent kinds of raid. There's software-raid (handled by mdadm), fake-raid (involving 'stupid' hardware and a driver) and smart hardware-raid /a controller doing all the raid controlling and just presenting a single disk to the OS). Which one do you have ? | 22:29 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: If no, you're ready. | 22:29 |
| yelloowfire | GuidMorrow: ??? | 22:30 |
| rs122 | "2. Download Driver" is confusing cause it says "ubuntu:/usr/share/man$ $ wget http://www.mafia.or.id/bjfilter/bjfi....50-2.i386.rpm | 22:30 |

| g3org3s | Ben64 and how can i do that ? | 22:31 |

| perscitus | jrib.-> Actually, it doesnt, | 22:43 |

| akatsuki | I got ubuntu, then I got fluxbox, then I got gtk-chtheme for font conventions, yet the fonts look really foul (not that they didn't with regular ubuntu) but they're even worse here, I've managed to attach Xft.dpi:96 and I have to revert to gnome-panel to fix up the fonts, which is temporary only for that session, how do I fix the fonts so that they're clean looking? | 22:46 |

| ldlework | Start a synergy server on the computer so that I can share keyboard/mouse between it and my windows machine. The problem is that unless I'm logged into ubuntu, the server doesn't get started and so I can't use my window's machine (the client) | 22:47 |

| stefg | ldlework: reading on synergy .... putting that in rc.local is useless. i ask myself what the differnce between that software and a vnc/rdp/nx server ? | 22:54 |
| Baptiste | Hi | 22:55 |
| CanadianLinux | I just installed a fresh jaunty. Grabbed the latest catalyst drivers, I just want to set my monitor to run at 75hz, I have a LCD at 1440x900. It only gives me the option of having 60hz... can someone give me a hand? | 22:55 |
| ldlework | stefg: its for when you have two computers sitting next to each other | 22:55 |
| rewt | i use synergy | 22:55 |
| ldlework | stefg: its a virtual KVM switch, not a remote desktop client | 22:55 |
| Baptiste | is an ethernet interface only recognized as eth* with ifconfig? | 22:55 |
| craCkpot | canadianlinux, last i knew LCD's don't use refresh rate | 22:55 |
| rewt | ldlework, virtual KM switch, not V | 22:55 |
| Baptiste | because I only get ath0 & wifi0 | 22:56 |
| ldlework | stefg: I believe this is the answer: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=970564&postcount=5 | 22:56 |
| Baptiste | no eth0 | 22:56 |
| Baptiste | and I'm wondering if the network card is even recognized | 22:56 |
| craCkpot | they matter to CRT monitors because they have to refresh the image x times per second | 22:56 |
| Lunixed | I am using linux system . double-clicking a jar file opens in openjdk run time and in terminal executing "java -jar a.jar" opens with openjdk run time. How do i start the jar from terminal in sun java runtime ? | 22:56 |
| craCkpot | LCD pixels stay on until turned off | 22:56 |
| stefg | IdleOne: right. it has to go to the gdm init (so starts when X starts) | 22:56 |
| CanadianLinux | Yea its using 60, The monitor supports 75. I plan on playing quakelive tonight on linux. I prefer playing at 75hz | 22:56 |
| CanadianLinux | I can in XP | 22:57 |
| IdleOne | stefg, ? | 22:57 |
| craCkpot | are you using the DVI (digital) connection? | 22:57 |
| CanadianLinux | Im assuming I have to add a modeline to my xorg.conf... thing Is I dont know what im doing | 22:57 |
| CanadianLinux | yes | 22:57 |
| IdleOne | stefg, I think you meant ldlework it's an L not I | 22:58 |
| craCkpot | then you don't have to concern yourself with it | 22:58 |
| stefg | IdleOne: right ... ldlework (stupid nick) | 22:58 |
| CanadianLinux | alright, you are sure craCkpot? I wont notice any flicker while playing? | 22:58 |
| deany | Lunixed, set the default java to sun java | 22:58 |
| craCkpot | LCD monitors ignore refresh rate | 22:58 |
| CanadianLinux | its more for the vga? | 22:58 |
| CanadianLinux | oh ok | 22:58 |
| craCkpot | if you're using the analog (blue) connector then it would matter | 22:59 |
| CanadianLinux | nah its the white | 22:59 |
| craCkpot | its more a CRT thing | 22:59 |
| CanadianLinux | alright thanks man, better than messing my xorg and getting a black screen anyways :) | 22:59 |
| Lunixed | deany, how ? | 22:59 |
| craCkpot | from random googling: So, what if you have an LCD monitor? You can safely ignore the refresh rate setting. Changing this number in Control Panel has no effect on an LCD. | 22:59 |
| ldlework | stefg: thanks, for the help! | 22:59 |
| ldlework | ...and the insult | 22:59 |
| deany | Lunixed, sudo update-java-alternatives | 22:59 |
| craCkpot | anywho, back to my problem | 22:59 |
| CanadianLinux | cool thanks for helpin a noob craCkpot | 23:00 |
| craCkpot | no problem, glad to help | 23:00 |
| Scootles | Can someone help me. I'd really like to stick to ubuntu on my laptop, however, I can't get my wifi card working so it's really tempting me to just delete it. | 23:00 |
| J-_ | !noob | 23:00 |
| ubottu | Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. | 23:00 |
| kaddi | Scootles: I couldn't get my card to work with network manager, however it works great with wicd, maybe try that out :) | 23:01 |
| craCkpot | My Issue: I am trying to dual boot vista and ubuntu 9.04, everything installs properly but i run into an issue with the bootloader (Grub) | 23:01 |
| GuidMorrow | where do I find all of the video codecs? I can't play FLV files for some reason | 23:02 |
| tbx | kaddi: watch out - I have had issues with wicd abruptly deciding that it can not, in fact, see *any* wireless networks. | 23:02 |
| Mike | hey | 23:02 |
| === Mike is now known as leachim6 | ||
| tbx | kaddi: that said, wicd has features that network manager lacks. | 23:02 |
| leachim6 | I updated jaunty to the latest.... | 23:02 |
| leachim6 | and now I can't shutdown... | 23:03 |
| leachim6 | it hang on shutdown... | 23:03 |
| craCkpot | it seems to stem from the fact that windows sees my IDE drive as the first drive (its where the vista bootloader is) and linux sees my 80gb SATA drive as the first HDD (its where windows is installed) | 23:03 |
| kaddi | tbx: I have been using it for close to a year now, while I have had these problems as well once in a while, network manager simply would not see my wifi network | 23:03 |
| kaddi | So wicd definitely is the best solution for me :) But it might not be for other people. | 23:03 |
| tbx | kaddi: yeah - I actually keep both debs locally and find that I have to replace-install. | 23:04 |
| craCkpot | any ideas anyone? | 23:04 |
| === raztafari is now known as julle__ | ||
| kaddi | tbx: really? I just use wicd, haven't had any issues for a couple of month now... everything just keeps getting beter ;) | 23:04 |
| leachim6 | is there a known issue with the latest jaunty updates? | 23:04 |
| leachim6 | that breaks shutdown | 23:04 |
| leachim6 | can someone help please :( | 23:05 |
| craCkpot | Scootles: I don't know if this will help you but I had the issue in my early linux days and I remember using NDISWrapper to wrap around the windows driver and make it work in linux. | 23:05 |
| kaddi | craCkpot: what exactly was your problem? | 23:05 |
| leachim6 | ewww | 23:05 |
| leachim6 | me too... | 23:05 |
| leachim6 | broadcom is nasty | 23:05 |
| leachim6 | bcm43xx | 23:05 |
| kaddi | leachim6: have you tried to shutdown using the shutdown command in terminal? | 23:05 |
| leachim6 | kaddi, yeah | 23:06 |
| tbx | running 9.04; just rebooted because X locked hard; upon login, now all the contents of ~/ are visible on my desktop, which is *super* annoying.... how to fix this? | 23:06 |
| leachim6 | "shutdown -h now" | 23:06 |
| kaddi | and nothing happens? | 23:06 |
| leachim6 | kaddi, no it runs through all the way to shutdown | 23:06 |
| leachim6 | and I get "acpid: stopped" | 23:06 |
| Scootles | craCkpot, the problem is that the only driver I can find for my wifi card is a .sys file and not .ini | 23:06 |
| leachim6 | and then it hangs | 23:06 |
| leachim6 | I think you mean .inf | 23:06 |
| craCkpot | .ini is not a windows driver | 23:06 |
| hackulator | I'm unable to get my microphone to record anything above a whisper, any ideas what my problem might be? I have tried adjusting the volume settings | 23:07 |
| Scootles | yeah, .inf is what I meant | 23:07 |
| nexace | does ubuntu have some sort of rdp program that allows for remote desktop viewing? | 23:07 |
| craCkpot | i believe .sys is an acceptable driver extension | 23:07 |
| Scootles | alright. Let me check it out | 23:07 |
| craCkpot | okay let me see if i can adequately describe my problem | 23:07 |
| === ProwL_ is now known as ProwL | ||
| kaddi | leachim6: I'm sry I can't help you with that. sounds like a bug, maybe check out launchpad.net | 23:08 |
| leachim6 | ok | 23:08 |
| tbx | nexace: yes, there is - I am trying to remember the name of it - one moment. | 23:09 |
| papo | hello | 23:09 |
| papo | where can I see packages which are currently being build or waiting in the queue? | 23:09 |
| bbooqq | Is it OK to use existing partition (currently, with Fedora core 5) for Ubuntu 9.04 not to backup and restore the existing data? | 23:09 |
| tbx | nexace: it's called "vinagre" | 23:10 |
| nexace | thanks tbx ill check it out | 23:10 |
| craCkpot | My problem seems to stem from the fact that Windows and Linux see different HDD's as the first disk and thus puts the MBR in 2 different places | 23:10 |
| ^Alita | hi to all | 23:10 |
| shamm | I'm having problem trying to install libvirt-bin, googled for it and can not find the solution. | 23:10 |
| xand_ | can't set a capture device in alsamixer, can anyone please help me out ? | 23:11 |
| ^Alita | i'm in trouble with xawtv: it shows images, but i can't hear anything | 23:11 |

| kaddi | craCkpot: so? you get an error message when you try to boot? you can't boot into linux? you can't boot into windows? | 23:11 |
| shamm | x0rphenochx: Virtual Machine | 23:11 |
| craCkpot | i can boot into windows, linux won't boot | 23:11 |
| xOrphenochx | no, i mean what do you need that package for? | 23:11 |
| xOrphenochx | specifically | 23:12 |
| kaddi | craCkpot: because it is not listed in grub? or what happens when you try to boot into it? | 23:12 |
| shamm | to run Virtual Machine Manager apps | 23:12 |
| superboki | somebody familiar with x264 compiling? | 23:12 |

| superboki | i managed, but missing avi and mp4 support | 23:12 |
| xOrphenochx | you mean for encoding or decoding, boki? | 23:13 |
| shamm | xOrphenochx: libvirt-bin is prevent virt-manager from being installed. | 23:13 |
| papo | ^Alita: There may be several reasons for this. Elder cards need a physical connection to the sound card, or the gain of the tv card (not the main volume) may be muted | 23:13 |

| eboyjr | Hello people of Earth... Umm I created a user with usename 'eboyjr' and deleted it, but I want to create it again with the same username but it will not let me. I am using the GNOME Add User Dialogue. | 23:34 |
| majuk | archman: Plug your USB key in, then look at the output of dmesg | 23:34 |
| majuk | archman: Once the disk settles, it'll tell you what /dev/ its assigned to. | 23:34 |
| bastidrazor | archman, when you plug a usb thing in .. type dmesg | tail | 23:34 |
| cake_baker | hi* | 23:35 |
| kaddi | hi | 23:35 |
| cake_baker | i've got quite a strange problem, i dunno where it comes from ... | 23:36 |
| cake_baker | thunar is slow as hell to show files | 23:36 |
| _cb | Basic NoMachine (freeNx) question. Install it on Ubuntu Server or Ubuntu Destkop. If I install it on Ubuntu Server do I need to install a gui (Am familiar with Citrix but that may be the wrong frame of reference) | 23:36 |
| cake_baker | i've check iptables rules ... and it's empty | 23:36 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about empathy | 23:36 |
| cake_baker | and hosts is as it must be | 23:36 |
| cake_baker | !thunar | 23:37 |
| ubottu | Thunar is a file manager for !Xfce. It is a lightweight alternative to !Nautilus and is quite similar. More info at: http://thunar.xfce.org/index.html - Want to Replace Nautilus with Thunar? See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease | 23:37 |
| GuidMorrow | this is annoying, how do I make VLC not open videos in individual windows | 23:37 |
| majuk | cake_baker: What kind of network shares? | 23:37 |
| cake_baker | i don't have network shares ... | 23:37 |
| cake_baker | it's local folders ... | 23:37 |
| archman | majuk, dmesg is huge, where should i look | 23:37 |
| majuk | cake_baker: Then iptables has nothing to do with it. | 23:37 |
| majuk | archman: The end. | 23:37 |
| cake_baker | the loopback interface isn't blocked at all | 23:37 |
| cake_baker | it has ... if you block the loopback interfaces .... it's slows as hell ... | 23:38 |
| cake_baker | but it isn't blocked on my laptop .... | 23:38 |
| archman | majuk: http://paste.ubuntu.com/255431/ | 23:38 |
| majuk | cake_baker: lol, and if it's unblocked, it's still slow as hell? | 23:38 |
| archman | that's it | 23:38 |
| cake_baker | yeah | 23:38 |
| cake_baker | and dunno why ... | 23:38 |
| x404x | is there a good simple guide to setup a news server locally on ubuntu 9.04 ? | 23:38 |

| Chaorain | is there a way two connect two routers wirelessly | 23:38 |
| cake_baker | i've check the hosts file and iptables rules as adviced on forums on the internet | 23:38 |
| majuk | cake_baker: You're not giving it long enough, I don't think. After about 2 minutes, the message you're seeing would be followed by more output. | 23:39 |
| amdFANBOY | majuk: i think the gmail notifier firefox plugin works perfectly. you see it on the bottom right of the screen and you gotta log in there. | 23:39 |
| amdFANBOY | peace | 23:39 |
| BlueLaguna | Do the jobs in /etc/cron.daily get executed the same time everyday or 24 hours after it was last executed? | 23:39 |
| amdFANBOY | the other one works too | 23:39 |
| majuk | Sorry, that was for archman ^^ | 23:39 |
| archman | majuk, bastidrazor, any ideas? | 23:39 |
| cake_baker | .... | 23:39 |
| edbian | Is there a text based installer for ubuntu? | 23:39 |
| jasonfunk | Is there something in Gnome that will try to configure my displays instead of letting X take care of it all? | 23:40 |
| cake_baker | nope majuk .... | 23:40 |
| cake_baker | i've read a looooot .... | 23:40 |
| LinuxGold | edbian: apt-get | 23:40 |
| edbian | Ubiquity keeps getting stuck at the partitioner. Any ideas? | 23:40 |
| amdFANBOY | gmail-notify i mean, in the repos. but i'd rather have it in firefox, so i'll use the plugin. | 23:40 |
| edbian | LinuxGold: text-based replacement for ubiquity | 23:40 |
| stroyan | vix: You could load the "lm-sensors" package. Then run "sudo sensors-detect". Use "sudo modprobe" to load the modules it tells you to. Then run "sensors". | 23:40 |
| eboyjr | Hello people of Earth... Umm I created a user with usename 'eboyjr' and deleted it, but I want to create it again with the same username but it will not let me. I am using the GNOME Add User Dialogue. Deleting the /home/eboyjr directory does not work. | 23:40 |
| cake_baker | i can tell that mosts people speak about a bug (back in 2007 .... so not my case), iptables and hosts file | 23:40 |
| cake_baker | haven't seen anything else till now ... | 23:40 |
| cake_baker | if you can lead the path ... ;) | 23:40 |
| archman | majuk, well, usb is plugged 10mins already | 23:41 |
| edbian | Is there a text based version of ubiquity? | 23:41 |
| archman | when i rerun dmesg, it's the same at the end | 23:41 |
| majuk | cake_baker: Well your dmesg output shows it's disconnecting periodically. Could be a problem with the USB port or something | 23:41 |
| archman | archman* | 23:41 |
| archman | lo | 23:42 |
| archman | l | 23:42 |
| majuk | Damnit, archman | 23:42 |
| majuk | lol | 23:42 |
| archman | hmm | 23:42 |
| archman | i disconnected it more times, that's it | 23:42 |
| archman | :( | 23:42 |
| cake_baker | lol | 23:42 |
| archman | why should i wait, what's the purpose? | 23:42 |
| cake_baker | no problem for the hl ;) | 23:42 |
| majuk | Hang on, I'll plug in my USB stick and show you the output | 23:42 |
| archman | ok | 23:43 |
| LinuxGold | do virt-machine utilitize 3d hardware? | 23:43 |
| vix | stroyan: that didnt work | 23:43 |
| archman | i don't think so, LinuxGold | 23:44 |

| LinuxGold | ok hanks archman | 23:44 |
| LinuxGold | thanks even. | 23:44 |
| x404x | tom hanks ? | 23:44 |
| x404x | lol | 23:44 |
| LinuxGold | lol | 23:44 |
| GuidMorrow | thanks for nothing, ubuntu almost kernal-panic'd | 23:44 |
| majuk | archman: 30 seconds later: http://dpaste.com/82464/ | 23:44 |
| archman | strange :S | 23:45 |
| archman | giving me the same | 23:46 |
| archman | all the time | 23:46 |
| majuk | archman: Yea, I dunno what would cause yours to cycle like that. | 23:46 |
| majuk | archman: Not using some crazy hub or something? | 23:46 |
| archman | hehe no | 23:46 |
| archman | PSP | 23:46 |
| archman | mini usb cable | 23:46 |
| archman | any other way to locate it? | 23:47 |
| majuk | archman: Ah! Well is there a PC mode setting on the PSP? | 23:47 |
| archman | sure, it's on | 23:47 |
| archman | USB mmode | 23:47 |
| archman | turn it off? | 23:47 |
| majuk | archman: Hmmm.... wierd. | 23:47 |
| x404x | i have found mini usb plugs are often poor and might give intermittent connection | 23:47 |
| majuk | archman: Yea, I dunno, maybe turn it on /after/ plugging it in? That doesn't make a ton of sense though. | 23:47 |
| x404x | is there a light on the usb thing that flikkers or something ? | 23:48 |
| archman | majuk, tried all that stuff, and it randomly works after a few attempts, but that stuff is s**t :D | 23:49 |
| archman | tnx anyway =) | 23:49 |
| majuk | archman: lol, yea, oh well, as long as it works! | 23:49 |
| majuk | :D | 23:49 |
| archman | hahahah | 23:49 |
| archman | f that | 23:49 |
| archman | XD | 23:49 |
| majuk | In the ear. | 23:49 |
| archman | hehe | 23:49 |
| ultraputz | is anyone else having any trouble after recent upgrade with encrypted system disk ? | 23:51 |
| archman | majuk: rebooting, brb | 23:51 |
| ultraputz | after installing most recent update, i restarted the machine to find busybox | 23:53 |
| ultraputz | error was ẗarget filesystem doesn have /sbin/init | 23:53 |
| ultraputz | which it did before the udpate. | 23:53 |
| br34l | when i use update-manager, reload the list, there are 3 updates (linux-headers-generic,linux-image-generic,linux-libc-dev). i click on install but nothing heappens | 23:54 |
| === ckd is now known as Mam_fajna_latark | ||
| kaddi | br34l: open a command line and type sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and the updates should get installed | 23:54 |
| br34l | kaddi: k, i try it | 23:55 |
| almostautomated | Question:: Are emacs command mode bindings 'flakey' in ubuntu using default gnome-terminal settings, or am I messing something up? Here's what is going on:: | 23:55 |
| almostautomated | Start terminal; verify bash is what started, 'set -o emacs', 'echo word1 word2 word3 word4[right-alt+3][right-alt+b]' and the cursor is sitting _within_ my prompt. | 23:55 |
| archman | majuk: worked after a reboot straight away: with: http://paste.ubuntu.com/255437/ | 23:55 |
| archman | but why? XD | 23:55 |
| br34l | kaddi: yep, ty | 23:56 |
| majuk | archman: Sweet. Guess you weren't holding your face right. | 23:56 |
| ikanobori | almostautomated: gnome-terminal is often flaky. | 23:56 |
| ikanobori | almostautomated: Does this also happen in other terminals like urxvt or xterm? | 23:56 |
| majuk | archman: Well, before I think it was detecting it as something /other/ than mass-storage. Because it never made it to that step. | 23:56 |
| majuk | But I couldn't say why. | 23:56 |
| archman | :( | 23:56 |
| hbekel | almostautomated: right alt is the compose key for me | 23:57 |
| archman | so i need to reboot when i want to mount, magnificent :D | 23:57 |
| almostautomated | ikanobori: I hadn't tried any other terminals. | 23:57 |
| majuk | archman: Maybe just temporary insanity. | 23:57 |
| majuk | archman: Maybe it'll be good from here on out. | 23:57 |
| ikanobori | almostautomated: Try that first, to see if it's something with gnome-terminal :-) | 23:57 |
| hbekel | almostautomated: do you have non-printing characters in your PS1? | 23:57 |
| almostautomated | hbekel: how can I determine which is meta for sure? | 23:57 |
| majuk | ...but I'd keep the fix in mind. ;) | 23:57 |
| archman | majuk, well, now that i know it's sdb1, can i use that for mount? | 23:57 |
| hbekel | almostautomated: run xmodmap | 23:58 |
| majuk | archman: Yea. Ubuntu may have even auto-mounted it for you. | 23:58 |
| almostautomated | hbekel: will do. ikanobori, I'll try a different terminal, do you recommend one that is in the default install? | 23:58 |
| majuk | archman: But if not, yes, you can mount sdb1 directly. Don't forget to unmount it before you yank the cable, though. | 23:58 |
| archman | yep | 23:58 |
| box | hey, i installed OSS and then tried to go back to pulseaudio but everything is all goofed up. my gnome-volume-control is gone from the tray, and i can't get sound to work, though i have pulseaudio selected in my sound options. any ideas? | 23:59 |
| archman | thanks, majuk | 23:59 |
| archman | bye | 23:59 |
| majuk | archman: np later | 23:59 |
| ikanobori | almostautomated: Any will do, other then gnome-terminal. | 23:59 |
| hbekel | almostautomated: did you modify PS1? | 23:59 |
| almostautomated | hbekel: Meta_L (0xcd) | 23:59 |
| hbekel | almostautomated: is that mod1? | 23:59 |
