| LittleItaly | alsamixer is not working for me | 00:31 |
|---|---|---|
| psycho_oreos | you probably need to run alsaconf | 00:36 |
| LittleItaly | command not found | 00:38 |
| psycho_oreos | woops alsactl | 00:39 |
| LittleItaly | tells me to specify command | 00:42 |
| LittleItaly | my sound card cannt be found, yet it is listed in lspci | 00:52 |
| LittleItaly | is the sound module supposed to be in xorg.conf? | 00:56 |
| halp | hi, does anyone know anything about xubuntu & wine? | 01:34 |
| LittleItaly | when a computer beeps when the login screen pops up, that is from the soundcard right? | 04:59 |
| maduser | no thats from the mother boared | 05:00 |
| maduser | there a speaker for beeps usually used to send error messages | 05:01 |
| maduser | but xubuntu uses it when the login starts | 05:01 |
| LittleItaly | can you help me, my sound card stopped working when i messed with my xorg.conf file | 05:01 |
| LittleItaly | lspci shows it | 05:01 |
| maduser | xorg.conf is video | 05:01 |
| maduser | xorg is video | 05:01 |
| maduser | I don't know how it could mess up your sound | 05:02 |
| LittleItaly | well, it stopped working some how =/ | 05:02 |
| LittleItaly | i didnt have to install any drivers for it to work | 05:02 |
| LittleItaly | xubuntu comes with alsa, so i went to package manager, reinstalled every packet and it still didnt help | 05:03 |
| LittleItaly | wtf.... i went to reboot, booted from an earlier back up, and the sound is there and my video res is the same as well | 05:09 |
| LittleItaly | since i booted to an earlier back up, will it boot into this each time maduser? | 05:09 |
| maduser | ah you have back up kernels in grub? | 05:10 |
| LittleItaly | yeah | 05:11 |
| LittleItaly | will it save to boot into this back up that has sound automatically? | 05:11 |
| maduser | no | 05:12 |
| LittleItaly | so what do i have to do? | 05:13 |
| maduser | you can chose the back up at boot | 05:14 |
| maduser | but the no sound is part of a bigger error which I don't know how to fix | 05:15 |
| LittleItaly | i cannt get rid of the others in grub? | 05:15 |
| LittleItaly | so that it boots off this backup | 05:16 |
| LittleItaly | maduser, since im using the backup wont it default to using this session? | 05:21 |
| maduser | I think so | 05:23 |
| maduser | but this is part of a bigger problem that I don't know how to fix | 05:23 |
| LittleItaly | does anyone know how to get rid of grub entries that are corrupt? | 05:39 |

| tdmsbn | hello, everyone.. i need some help with the evil blue screen thats shows up when something goes wrong with the boot | 17:15 |
| tdmsbn | I'm new to ubuntu, and the only way i can get it to work is by inputting terminal commands into my start up list so that i have a desktop and pannels | 17:16 |
| tdmsbn | also as a result my computer is now very slow and even somthing as low performance as this chat is freezing up | 17:18 |
| pi00100100 | hello. i'm trying to create a liveusb with systemrescuecd and xubuntu livecd on it. at boot, i should be able to select which one to load via grub. | 17:25 |
| pi00100100 | systemrescuecd works ok. xubuntu doesn't. the problem is i don't know which parameters to pass to casper | 17:25 |
| pi00100100 | i mean only-ubiquity, quiet, splash, ... | 17:26 |
| * SiDi_ has no idea. | 17:26 | |
| pi00100100 | at the moment, menu.lst looks like this: http://dpaste.com/87359/ | 17:27 |
| SiDi_ | shouldnt you have a root=/dev/sd## quiet splash after that ? | 17:32 |
| Besogon | may you don't need to use "root" parameter? I have "quiet" after each string of OS | 17:32 |
| === SiDi_ is now known as SiDi | ||
| Besogon | pi00100100, you should add "boot" parameter. http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#GNU_002fLinux | 17:43 |
| pi00100100 | boot is only needed in interactive mode i think | 17:44 |
| pi00100100 | selecting the right os from the menu and issuing enter is the same imho | 17:44 |
| pi00100100 | anyway, it fails saying: gave up waiting for root device. common problems: boot args (cat /proc/cmdline); check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?); check root= (did the system wait for the right device?) missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev) | 17:45 |
| pi00100100 | also: ALERT! does not exist. dropping to a shell! | 17:46 |
| pi00100100 | but it doesn't specify what doesn't exist | 17:47 |
| pi00100100 | perhaps an empty string is displayed | 17:47 |
| pi00100100 | if i put root=/dev/sda3 i will get the same error message with: ALERT! /dev/sda3 does not exist. | 17:51 |
| pi00100100 | ah sorry... it should be sdb3 | 17:53 |
| Besogon | pi00100100, So, may be it will more better if you use uuid insteed root | 17:55 |
| Besogon | pi00100100, sudo vol_id -u /dev/sdaX get UUID of the device | 17:58 |
| Besogon | pi00100100, what is with your GRUB? Is it work? | 18:08 |
| pi00100100 | sorry but i don't understand your question.. | 18:09 |
| pi00100100 | now it fails with an error very similar to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=989201 | 18:10 |
| Besogon | Do you use UUID insteed "root"? | 18:11 |
| pi00100100 | yeah, let me try with UUIDs... | 18:12 |
| pi00100100 | uuids are not mentioned in grub 0.97 manual | 18:16 |
| pi00100100 | perhaps it is a feature of grub2 | 18:16 |
| pi00100100 | anyway, i don't think my problem is uuid related | 18:16 |
| Besogon | pi00100100, nono no. I have uuid in menu.lst of ubuntu. (Actually Im using grub2 this time but grub2 dont use menu.lst file) | 18:18 |
| Besogon | using "uuid" is more reliability | 18:19 |
| Besogon | At least you will be certain about using right partition | 18:20 |
| pi00100100 | ok. i think i'll have to study the grub manual before trying to do this | 18:22 |
| pi00100100 | anyway thanks for your support | 18:23 |
| Besogon | pi00100100, http://dpaste.com/87383/ This was in my menu.lst some mounths ago | 18:24 |
| pi00100100 | your menu is for booting an installed ubuntu system. what i need is the knowledge to boot a livecd system | 18:24 |
| Besogon | make your menu.lst similar to that menu.lst. | 18:26 |
| pi00100100 | sorry, have to go... bye! | 18:31 |
| Besogon | bye | 18:31 |

| Sysi- | seems problematic | 20:09 |
| sabina | yup | 20:10 |
| Sysi- | have you installed updates? | 20:10 |
| sabina | yeah | 20:10 |
| sabina | everything is uptodate | 20:10 |
| Sysi- | i had problems but they fixed themselves | 20:10 |
| sabina | lol well arent you lucky | 20:10 |
| Sysi- | there is lot going on with intel driver curretly | 20:11 |
| Sysi- | *drivers | 20:11 |
| sabina | i have tried pulseaudio too, but didnt make any diffrence, so reinstalled esd | 20:13 |
| Sysi- | in my other computer web radios won't work, problems are in graphic cards drivers | 20:15 |
| halp | hi Im having issues installing pretty much anything on xubuntu...I cant get wine to work nor flash | 20:15 |
| TheSheep | halp: what's the error message? | 20:15 |
| sabina | i just noticed that if i had terminal going the package manager didnt work and vice versa | 20:16 |
| sabina | you got sound halp? lol | 20:16 |
| halp | for flash it keeps telling me the file or directory doesnt exist | 20:16 |
| TheSheep | halp: THE file? | 20:16 |
| halp | what... | 20:16 |
| TheSheep | halp: your descriptions are so vague, that it's really very hard to help you | 20:17 |
| halp | umm for flash when I type in sudo sh flashplayer-installer it says no such file or directory | 20:17 |
| TheSheep | halp: why would you type that? | 20:18 |
| Sysi- | install xubuntu-restricted-extras | 20:18 |
| halp | is that the thing on psychocats.net? | 20:19 |
| Sysi- | guess so | 20:20 |
| halp | ok I did that... | 20:20 |
| Sysi- | if that won't work, ubuntu-restricted-extras | 20:20 |
| halp | where do I get that? | 20:20 |
| TheSheep | or just flashplugin-nonfree | 20:20 |
| TheSheep | !info flashplugin-nonfree | 20:20 |
| ubottu | flashplugin-nonfree (source: flashplugin-nonfree): Adobe Flash Player plugin installer (transitional package). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 10.0.32.18ubuntu0.9.04.1 (jaunty), package size 1 kB, installed size 40 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 lpia) | 20:20 |
| TheSheep | halp: from the repositories, with the synaptic package manager | 20:21 |
| halp | I dont see xubuntu-restricted-extras in synaptic package manager | 20:22 |
| halp | nor flashplugin nonfree | 20:23 |
| Sysi- | there is search | 20:23 |
| halp | I searched nothing came up | 20:24 |
| knome | halp, suppose you don't have the multiverse repositories enabled | 20:24 |
| halp | what... | 20:24 |
| knome | halp, on synaptic, go to settings -> repositories | 20:25 |
| knome | halp, on the "ubuntu software" tab (should open immediately), select all the checkboxes, if they are not checked already | 20:25 |
| halp | ok I found flashplugin but not xubuntu restricted extras | 20:28 |
| halp | also youtube videos still wont play so flashplugin isnt really working | 20:28 |
| knome | halp, did you do what i said? did you refresh the package lists after that? | 20:30 |
| halp | with reload? | 20:30 |
| knome | yes | 20:30 |
| halp | yes | 20:31 |
| knome | okay | 20:31 |
| knome | which xubuntu version you have? | 20:31 |
| halp | even with flashplugin installed now flash still isnt working | 20:31 |
| halp | 6.06 | 20:31 |
| Sysi- | is that still supported? | 20:31 |
| halp | um what | 20:32 |
| Sysi- | !606 | 20:32 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about 606 | 20:32 |
| knome | !dapper | 20:32 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper Drake) was the fourth release of Ubuntu. Desktop support ended on July 14th 2009, Server support will end in June 2011. See !upgrade for upgrade instructions | 20:32 |
| halp | btw Im a major noob...I dont get any of this... | 20:32 |
| knome | halp, 6.06 is not supported any more, you should upgrade | 20:32 |
| halp | I cant, its the only version that works on my computer | 20:33 |
| knome | halp, and even that is not supported, so the best way would be to install again | 20:33 |
| halp | well the latest version that works | 20:33 |
| === Sysi- is now known as Sysi | ||
| halp | sooo flash wont work at all no matter what? | 20:35 |
| TheSheep | halp: what do you mean the later versions don't work? they should | 20:36 |
| knome | halp, i'm not sure if it works in 6.06. | 20:37 |
| TheSheep | probably they (Adobe) changed the location of the flash plugin, so installer can't download it anymore | 20:37 |
| TheSheep | you could probably try gnash, I think it suports Youtube | 20:38 |
| TheSheep | !flash | 20:38 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 20:38 |
| TheSheep | !gnash | 20:38 |
| ubottu | An open source flash replacement. It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/ | 20:38 |
| Sysi | there aren't anymore repos where from to install it? | 20:38 |
| Sysi | (bad english i know) | 20:38 |
| Sysi | if 6.06 isn't supported anymore | 20:39 |
| halp | wat | 20:40 |
| TheSheep | Sysi: to start with, Ubuntu is not allowed to keep the flash plugin in the repositories, so it keeps there a script that downloads it from Adobe site | 20:40 |
| knome | Sysi, the repositories/packages are there, but they link to a url that doesn't exist anymore, and as 6.06 is not supported, the packages are not updated either to point to the new place - and in the end, adobe doesn't even serve these old version | 20:40 |
| knome | +s | 20:40 |
| sabina | anyone know what linux dist thats reported least sound issues? lol | 20:40 |
| TheSheep | Sysi: but Adobe is known to change their addresses | 20:40 |
| halp | ok...I have to reboot so Ill brb | 20:40 |
| TheSheep | sabina: try looking for your sound card model and word 'linux' in google | 20:41 |
| halp | Im just gonna say screwit about flash, and get back to my issues with wine since thats more important to me, I see it in synaptic now but it says it needs a lot more files to install (even some that are already there) | 20:51 |
| Sysi | i'd guess that upgrading would help solvin probles a lot, if they still exist | 20:53 |
| halp | I cant upgrade though, it wont work on my computer | 20:53 |
| Sysi | what wont work? | 20:54 |
| halp | upgrades wont | 20:54 |
| Sysi | i guess because 6.06 isn't supported anymore | 20:55 |
| knome | halp, yes, and that's because 6.06 is not supported. | 20:55 |
| knome | halp, it's END-OF-LIFE | 20:55 |
| halp | I mean, xubuntu upgrades wont work | 20:55 |
| Sysi | upgrading to 8.04 should work if i have right information? | 20:55 |
| halp | like the recent version of xubuntu wont install on my computer | 20:56 |
| knome | halp, exactly. | 20:56 |
| halp | what exactly... | 20:57 |
| knome | halp, i understand that the newer versions wouldn't work on your computer, because you don't have resources for them to run. | 20:57 |
| knome | halp, but thus you are using the old version, it is possible that other things like flash won't work also. | 20:58 |
| halp | oh ok | 20:58 |
| halp | so wine wont work with that version either? | 20:58 |
| knome | halp, it is possible that it works, but there might be bugs. | 20:58 |
| knome | halp, but because all the upgrades in ubuntu come from the repositories, you can't get any updates to any application, because you're running an outdated version of ubuntu | 20:59 |
| Sysi | jaunty with lxde might work? | 20:59 |
| Sysi | lxde isn't as nice as xfce but pretty good | 21:00 |
| halp | I think Im going to give up with xubuntu...this old version is too limited, Im going to try another distro =/ | 21:03 |
| nikolam | Sysi, i installed lxde on hardy, there is sime repository/ppa foro that, and wicd also | 21:03 |
| nikolam | help is a looser :) | 21:04 |
| nikolam | halp, sorry :) | 21:04 |
| knome | he has a point in there *and* i don't think the OS choice is a reason to call anybody a loser | 21:05 |
| nikolam | knome maybe you are right. I appologise. I just figured that he just said something and leaved ah. | 21:09 |
| knome | well, that's not the best way to handle the situation, i agree, but i think he was very frustrated already | 21:10 |
| knome | and maybe giving this one more go at xubuntu and not getting what he wanted.. | 21:10 |
| Sysi | he said he was noob, he isn't gonna get anything easier running on that machine | 21:11 |
| nikolam | Sysi, I use deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/lxde/ubuntu hardy main to have lxde on Hardy | 21:11 |
| Sysi | i have it on jaunty, xfce was slow on eee 701 | 21:12 |
| knome | Sysi, maybe he'll get back then. | 21:12 |
| nikolam | knome I entered later and I woldnt say anything if he was present. sry | 21:12 |
| knome | nikolam, he wasn't, but that was not the point. :) | 21:13 |
| nikolam | Sysi, I use Hardy on 701 and i am content with it.. | 21:13 |
| nikolam | knome, i know. | 21:13 |
| Sysi | i had easy peasy but i thought i should upgrade | 21:13 |
| nikolam | Sysi, I used to install some scripts to get drivers etc that worked only on Hardy as advertised | 21:14 |
| Sysi | i tried fedora, it was fast, but you'd need 2.6.30 kernel to get wlan eorking | 21:14 |
| nikolam | I don`t think I will move Hardy from my eee untill LTS EOL | 21:14 |
| Sysi | or that would be easiest/best solution | 21:15 |
| nikolam | I get everything working on hardy on eee, I even use wicd wireless menager, very much more usefull that network manager | 21:15 |
| Sysi | fedora was with gnome as fast as ubuntu with xfce, maybe even faster :S | 21:15 |
| Sysi | but i need wlan | 21:16 |
| nikolam | Hm, I reccomend My solution :) Xubuntu Hardy+uodate +that script for setting up drivers | 21:16 |
| Sysi | hardy has old software | 21:17 |
| nikolam | I choosed solution where drivers are reinstalled after every kernel upgrade. but there is also repo for hardy with alternate kernel, too | 21:17 |
| nikolam | Yes, Hardy is older but on think like eeepc, I want stable stuff etc | 21:17 |
| Sysi | i want stable to desktop | 21:18 |
| nikolam | You can ged newer software from ppa repos, like OOo 3.1, newer pidgin from getdeb.net etc | 21:18 |
| Sysi | eee is for experiments | 21:18 |
| nikolam | Oh, I see, you are looking for solution for your desktop.. | 21:18 |
| nikolam | Well,I use hardy on desktop, too :) | 21:19 |
| Sysi | in one i has fedora | 21:19 |
| Sysi | in this one jaunty | 21:19 |
| nikolam | But if you are new user, newest is maybe best for you , unill second lts next year | 21:19 |
| nikolam | Only I think drivers for Intel graphics are far from perfect in Jaunky etc. | 21:20 |
| Sysi | i'm actually not very new, but quite noob still :) | 21:20 |
| nikolam | Sysi, I know the feeling :) | 21:20 |
| nikolam | I know now how to compile packages on my own, from .say. karmic repo etc and use it on hardy | 21:21 |
| Sysi | i can do that with instructions | 21:21 |
| Sysi | i just can't see any reason to use hardy | 21:22 |
| Sysi | for me jaunty is very stable | 21:22 |
| nikolam | I found instructions about that in package debian-reference | 21:22 |
| nikolam | Sysi, then, that is right solution for you :) | 21:22 |
| Sysi | that's why i have it :D | 21:23 |
| nikolam | I found some reasons for myself in testing period for jaunty. Much things in Xfce didn`t work as I expected, so thats it | 21:23 |
| Sysi | xfce is best but lxde flies even on eee | 21:24 |
| nikolam | yup but i use xfce anyway, i get used to its solutions | 21:24 |
| Sysi | i have xfce with intel e5200 too :) | 21:25 |
| Sysi | haven't installed it yet to fedora | 21:25 |
| Sysi | i may want fedora, but that would propably mean compiling if i dont wait untill f12 is released | 21:26 |
| nikolam | hey I just don`t believe that wireless on eee shouldn`t be make to work on crrent fedora | 21:28 |
| Sysi | 701sd | 21:28 |
| nikolam | knome, there is a reason I was jumpy upon coming :) | 21:29 |
| Sysi | rtl8187se is problematic card | 21:29 |
| Sysi | rtl8187 driwers won't work | 21:29 |
| nikolam | I get bruised and kicked for the first time on #opensolaris yesterday, just for talking about GPL3. Obviously they are some kind of BSD freaks that control #opensolaris | 21:30 |
| nikolam | Sysi, of fedora you are talking? | 21:30 |
| Sysi | yup | 21:31 |
| Sysi | in xubu they work great | 21:31 |
| knome | nikolam, hah, sure. | 21:31 |
| nikolam | They seems to include BSD cone inside opensolaris and want it to keep that way | 21:32 |
| nikolam | code | 21:32 |
| nikolam | And they generally hate Linux wide gpl and userbase etc | 21:32 |
| nikolam | CCDL is like LGPL to me, but not to them, etc | 21:33 |
| nikolam | Sysi, I think you can change wireless card inside eee for some else :) | 21:33 |
| nikolam | it is just wireless mini pci express card inside :) | 21:34 |

| ubottu | thejayjetson: Hi! Welcome to #xubuntu! | 21:41 |
| thejayjetson | i am stuck on the kboot screen of my ps3 | 21:41 |
| forces | kboot? | 21:41 |
| thejayjetson | i have xubuntu burned to disc | 21:42 |
| thejayjetson | yes, kboot screen | 21:42 |
| thejayjetson | can't get system to recognize disc | 21:42 |
| thejayjetson | or to begin installation | 21:43 |
| thejayjetson | please help, my ps is in a coma until i fix this problem | 21:44 |
| thejayjetson | hello.........anyone availible at the moment? needs some help with Xubuntu on the ps3 | 21:47 |
| nikolam | hm | 21:50 |
| nikolam | you already used xubuntu on that sp3? | 21:50 |
| zk | Hi! Is it normal to have screen tearing with composite enabled with video playback? | 21:51 |
| nikolam | because newest ps3 type has removed ability to run linux, by SONY.. | 21:52 |
| nikolam | zk what player, what version of xubuntu and what graphics driver and hardware? | 21:52 |
| nikolam | thejayjetson, what is model number of your ps3? | 21:53 |
| zk | nikolam, vlc xubuntu jaunty 9.04 nvidia gtx 280 with 185 driver | 21:53 |
| zk | nikolam, it works ok with compiz so it might be a problem with sync to vblank | 21:54 |
| nikolam | zk how it is doing with open driver only? | 21:54 |
| zk | nikolam, i'm using proprietary ones... | 21:54 |
| zk | nikolam, should i try open ones? | 21:55 |
| nikolam | I would try to compare on them | 21:55 |
| nikolam | But closed drivers problems are good to report directly to producer, say nvidia | 21:55 |
| nikolam | That might be fastest way to fix them | 21:55 |
| nikolam | or/and on lanchpad bug system, too | 21:56 |
| nikolam | Also some forum aabout nvidia drivers, too | 21:56 |
| nikolam | I used last year of two amd fglrx driver and I know how pain is that | 21:57 |
| zk | what are you using as a driver? | 21:57 |
| nikolam | well closed source amd driver, called fglrx. | 21:59 |
| zk | and it works tearing free ? | 21:59 |
| zk | the video playback with XFCE compositor | 21:59 |
| nikolam | zk depending on player.. my graphics is low end, integrated with mobo | 22:00 |
| zk | ok brb | 22:00 |
| nikolam | I know that driver model has been change since jaunty in kernel and that is why drivers still need some adjustments. feel free to report any glitches | 22:02 |
| nikolam | ok, I am rebooting now | 22:03 |
| nikolam | cul8r | 22:03 |
| slow-motion | n8 | 22:20 |
| vallhalla81 | can any one help i am having trouble getting my dvb-t from tevion working tryed many forums andd google searches | 22:26 |
| AryehGregor | Something messed with my dual-monitor setup, and now the panel options don't let me move panels to my primary monitor -- they just stick to my second monitor and don't give a choice of where to move them. Any ideas, other than "try restarting X"? | 23:05 |
| AryehGregor | I can position windows in the other monitor, but panels refuse to go there. Even if I set them to freely movable. | 23:06 |
| TheSheep | AryehGregor: try killing the panels and starting them | 23:12 |
| knome | AryehGregor, right-click panel -> customise -> "select monitor" ? | 23:53 |
| AryehGregor | knome, thanks, but there's no "select monitor". There usually is, but now there's not. | 23:54 |
| knome | okay. | 23:55 |
| AryehGregor | TheSheep, bingo, thanks. | 23:55 |
| AryehGregor | Only problem is, now it's running in my terminal window. How can I get it to detach and run in the background? | 23:56 |
| knome | AryehGregor, alt+f2 | 23:56 |
| AryehGregor | Oh, clever. Thanks! | 23:57 |
| knome | np. hope you enjoy xubuntu | 23:58 |
