| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, well i installed cheese from synaptic and it didn't have alot when it installed should i have tried through terminal? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: same either way.. I'll load it up and look at it | 00:00 |
| bastid_raZor | slops: sudo blkid ..will give you the UUID's | 00:00 |
| twright | saji, try looking at this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 | 00:00 |
| dabukalam | newser: have you tried it without the monitor? | 00:00 |
| McSchmo | hey, is deborphans the same as computer janitor, just wondering which is best in looking for leftover dependences? | 00:00 |
| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, um ok but im somewhat new with ubuntu, using jaunty btw | 00:01 |
| dabukalam | newser: your graphics card is close to non-existant, so it may not be able to handle both an external monitor and video at the same time? | 00:01 |
| twright | bravo7, do you mean it is working now? | 00:01 |
| ftherese | Irishmanluke: I recreated the user again and now it works... very strange... maybe there was some weird dns cache or something | 00:01 |
| FelpsJ | how can I add a shortcut to terminal in one panel? What should I write in the command line? | 00:01 |
| Irishmanluke | hmm | 00:01 |
| Irishmanluke | dunno | 00:01 |
| ftherese | Irishmanluke: the other thing I did was change the user's uid | 00:01 |
| Irishmanluke | ah | 00:01 |
| bravo7 | twright thank you man took me 10 mins | 00:01 |
| ftherese | Irishmanluke: I added a number | 00:01 |
| ftherese | Irishmanluke: 1003 instead of 1002 | 00:02 |
| sunny007 | Twright, you were right. everything you said.. worked. only problem was i was too stupid to realise that my browser was on 'work offline mode' | 00:02 |
| Irishmanluke | ftherese: interesting | 00:02 |
| dabukalam | _CommandeR_: hold your horses | 00:02 |
| newser | dabukalam, don't remember. But I had a hard time configuring the external monitor to work. I have tons of problems adjusting the resolution. What do you mean with close to non-existant? very low performance/resolution? | 00:02 |
| ftherese | Irishmanluke: well you can tuck that one away if you ever hear of a similar situation | 00:02 |
| ftherese | Irishmanluke: God forbid!\ | 00:02 |
| saji | twiright, i don't want to install the new drivers in Karmic, i want to do it in Jaunty. Tell me how? | 00:02 |
| dabukalam | newser: yup | 00:03 |
| bravo7 | twright, there are times where the screen changes blank for few sec is that normal? | 00:03 |
| twright | sunny007, great - is whatever compiling now? | 00:03 |
| ftherese | Irishmanluke: thanks for the google telnet trick thingy too... that might come in useful one day :) | 00:03 |
| twright | bravo7, do you mean normally or with synergy | 00:04 |
| bravo7 | twright yea | 00:04 |
| sunny007 | yup it compiled and installed a while back. but i was trying to recompile and re install and thats why it was not working | 00:04 |
| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, ok got another problem when i tried to install cheese through terminal and typed sudo apt-get install cheese i got this error messageE: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 00:04 |
| GhostWolfy | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 00:04 |
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: I could have sworn there was a "properties" section.. anyway I looked at the help file and found that if your camera doesn't work then to file a bug report.. there might already be one. check it out here. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=cheese | 00:04 |
| twright | bravo, which? | 00:04 |
| bravo7 | twright ya | 00:04 |
| mrbook1 | i am a newbie. i am trying to test ubuntu on dell vostro 2510. I am able to get it running, but there is no sound. Any ideas | 00:04 |
| bravo7 | twright | 00:04 |
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: that's probably because synaptic was still open | 00:05 |
| newser | dabukalam, ohh I see. The only way I got things to work (resolution on external monitor) is having an extended desktop. I guess that is what is causing problems. If I readjust the settings, it asks me to log-out/in then the monitor goes off. Is there a way to just select the vga video option? | 00:05 |
| GhostWolfy | ok thanks i thought i already closed it.. | 00:05 |
| bravo7 | twright umm there was a problen | 00:05 |
| twright | bravo7, that does happen when stuff is in full screen | 00:05 |
| twright | bravo7, yes | 00:05 |
| bravo7 | twright let say i want to type something and press enter | 00:05 |
| bravo7 | twright it just hold a key button | 00:06 |
| bravo7 | twright the up key | 00:06 |
| GhostWolfy | but Izinucs my camera does work, it just doesn't have lighting i can see myself but its just a bit dark | 00:06 |
| twright | bravo7, um | 00:06 |
| saji | twright, sorry for interrupting you but what i want to know is about new intel drivers for jaunty and not KArmic | 00:06 |
| bravo7 | twright the up key | 00:06 |
| twright | saji, yes | 00:06 |
| bravo7 | twright once it' | 00:06 |
| matthew1 | does anyone have any idea why I can't cd to my desktop? | 00:06 |
| bravo7 | twright never mind i think i figure how to fix that out | 00:07 |
| grenbo3 | does ubuntu 9.04 allow for kde and gnome at the same time? | 00:07 |
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: that can happen with some cameras.. the generic driver might not detect it properly.. try shining more light on your face. | 00:07 |
| JackBeSlow | matthew1: you are doing something wrong... | 00:07 |
| JackBeSlow | lol | 00:07 |
| saji | twright, so? | 00:07 |
| twright | bravo7, great - great | 00:07 |
| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, i have i've used all the light i have in my room even a desk lamp | 00:07 |
| Turbolinux | I am asking again. Is that work when we add hda model=hp parameter on HDA Intel sound card and where is needed place for add on configuration file? | 00:08 |

| mattwj2002 | hi guys | 00:08 |
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: then it's just not the right camera for ubuntu currently | 00:08 |
| sukuri | I installed ubuntu on what was sda, it's since become sdb and I've installed Windows on the harddrive that holds sda. How do I can make ubuntu and grub work again? I'm logged in via the live CD and ready to try and fix things | 00:08 |
| slops | bastid_raZor, thanks | 00:08 |
| mattwj2002 | I have a question | 00:08 |
| newser | dabukalam, I just turn off the netbook screen, and lowered the screen resolution, but still no video playback. Ohh, one more thing. When I try to mirror screens, it says 'could not apply the selected configuration' no error returned | 00:08 |
| saji | twright, thanks.... i'll try... | 00:08 |
| twright | saji, if you go through tutorial going up to C should give you what you want | 00:09 |
| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, well if its not the right one how come it even works just have no lighting on it?? | 00:09 |
| robbiemc965 | australia | 00:09 |
| bravo7 | twright are there any cool program that works similar to syn | 00:09 |
| bravo7 | twright working with windows xp visa ubuntu? | 00:09 |
| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, even when i try to configure it with amsn i can't even change the lighting on it since the properites won't move | 00:09 |
| mattwj2002 | how do I shutoff the built in wireless network card and use the usb network card instead......in ubuntu 8.10......I have tried sudo ifconfig eth1 down and sudo ifdown eth1 | 00:09 |
| mattwj2002 | ? | 00:10 |
| saji | twright, did you mean part-C? | 00:10 |
| bravo7 | twright there is a problem with my smb:/// i can't access to my windows | 00:10 |
| twright | saji, yep although you can do as much or as little as your system requires | 00:10 |
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: you might google the camera model and linux and see what's said about it.. there might be a fix | 00:11 |
| twright | bravo7, ah, are you using it via host-name or ip? | 00:11 |
| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, ok im googling to see if there is a list of webcams that work with ubuntu | 00:11 |
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: what kind of cam is it? | 00:11 |
| twright | bravo7, I think synergy is one of a kind | 00:11 |
| saji | twiright, can you tell me what that means.. Is there different configurations depending on your specific intel hardware? | 00:12 |
| mattwj2002 | anyone have any idea? | 00:12 |
| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, its an logitcech quickcam | 00:12 |
| mattwj2002 | I am about ready to rip out the wireless nic | 00:12 |
| newser | dabukalam, nope, tried running the videos only on netbook without external monitor, but still not playing the videoclip. What else could it be? I also uninstalled compiz | 00:13 |
| twright | saji, the more steps you do the faster it should be but the less well tested (newer) so if you need your system to be stable do not do too much | 00:13 |
| === eboyjr is now known as eboyjr-shower | ||
| twright | saji, that said step D is the only one likely to cause big problems | 00:13 |

| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, no quickcam express | 00:14 |

| mattwj2002 | no one is helpful today | 00:17 |
| mattwj2002 | :( | 00:17 |
| isaac_ | Question is, can you install Studio on a flash drive? I want to try it, but I don't want to tinker with bootloader and partitions just to dry it. | 00:17 |
| Izinucs | mattwj2002: or nobody knows the answer to your question | 00:17 |
| iceroot | !gparted | Taulus | 00:17 |
| ubottu | Taulus: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 00:17 |

| isaac_ | Izinucs you crazy? Being on internet? With spyware-rich windows? | 00:18 |
| saji | twright, should i take any backup before doing this upgradation? | 00:18 |
| Izinucs | isaac_: k.:) .. you might load it in a VM in virtualbox | 00:18 |
| isaac_ | I haven't been online with Windows in months. | 00:18 |
| isaac_ | Literally. | 00:18 |
| twright | saji, it should not impact your data but in the worst case you will be left in text only mode so it might be a good idea :-) | 00:19 |
| isaac_ | Izinucs yeah, but I really wanted to test it realtime, with no USB passthrough for my 88 key keyboard making music. | 00:19 |
| isaac_ | Also I wanted to try out the RT kernel in well.......... RT. | 00:19 |
| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, i found a page but i think i need to install a driver but theres some comments i don't understand if you can help me the link is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCamerasLogitech again my webcam is logitech quickcam express | 00:19 |
| Izinucs | isaac_: well.. booting off a usb is still slower than the HD | 00:19 |
| isaac_ | Can you install Studio to a flash drive? | 00:19 |
| === Bllasae is now known as Bllasae2 | ||
| isaac_ | Izinucs yup. | 00:20 |
| twright | Taulus, if you first run the command fixmbr in windows then you can just delete the ubuntu partition | 00:20 |
| bravo7 | twright the hostname | 00:20 |
| Izinucs | isaac_: you probably can install it to a flash drive.. look for the docs on how to do it in ubuntu and it will most likely work the same. | 00:20 |
| isaac_ | Izinucs but real time music playing shouldn't be affected, assuming you have RAM to load the programs. | 00:20 |
| isaac_ | And assuming you let the programs load before you play :P | 00:21 |
| Taulus | twright ubuntu is only OS on this macine. | 00:21 |
| silare | Hi, all. All of a sudden when I reboot my computer after removing timidity from my computer, I found that I no longer had sound. Is there a way to fix this? | 00:21 |
| twright | bravo7, in that case could you try using the ip (you can find it by right clicking on network manager) | 00:21 |
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: are you on 8.10? | 00:21 |
| bravo7 | twright when i go into smb:/// dir it show only to icons one for MShome and Workgroup | 00:21 |
| GhostWolfy | Izinucs, no im using jaunty 9.04 | 00:21 |
| isaac_ | Izinucs in Ubuntu 9.04 it's part of the nice graphical installer. In UbuntuStudio you don't have the GUI installer. Thus the question. | 00:21 |
| Izinucs | k | 00:21 |
| twright | Taulus, then it that cause you can just install window on top of it if you so please | 00:21 |
| Foxtrot | so I can't connect to the internet with any version of linux, can anyone help me out? | 00:22 |

| isaac_ | Thanks anyway y'all | 00:23 |
| Foxtrot | Can anyone help me out? | 00:23 |
| twright | bravo7, ah, that might be a bug in nautilus | 00:23 |
| isaac_ | Foxtrot details on type of internet connection? | 00:23 |
| bravo7 | twright how would i fix that ? | 00:23 |
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: looks like it stopped working in 8.10 according to the link you gave me. There is no mention of that cam for 9.04.. That page won't help you. | 00:23 |
| twright | bravo7, if you type in the ip then does it work | 00:23 |
| Foxtrot | just trying to connect from a wired router | 00:23 |

| isaac_ | Foxtrot details on what TYPE of connection? | 00:24 |

| Foxtrot | what type? broadband | 00:24 |
| bravo7 | goto: smb////192.168.1.## ? | 00:24 |
| isaac_ | DSL, dialup, what kind of connection between the modem and computer (USB, ethernet, other) | 00:24 |
| Izinucs | GhostWolfy: you have to pay attention to the version of ubuntu they are talking about. 9.04 isn't mentioned for the "express" | 00:25 |
| Foxtrot | cat5 | 00:25 |
| Taulus | twright might it be because there is no free space partition on HDD and OSX cannot find any space? | 00:25 |

| tarnold | I'm setting up a static IP / DNS wired network configuration in Ubuntu. It didn't auto-configure, so I looked up the network configuration on a Fedora box that was working with the wired network. I added things in /etc/network/interfaces like address, netmask, broadcast, gateway, and I added a DNS name and nameservers to /etc/resolv.conf . I found all the values for these things in the old network config. Now, when I start up Ubuntu, eth0 i | 00:41 |
| Izinucs | saji_: it happens sometimes when you log in with one nick and don't close out correctly.. the nick is left "hanging" and when you log in again with the same nick the system puts a "_" at the end of it to make it different. | 00:41 |
| tarnold | disabled and I have to do ifup eth0 before anything works. Second, the nm-applet (little network manager in the top right menubar) tells me that my "Device is not managed" and doesn't let me edit things through the GUI. I'd like that little "not managed, not connected" icon to go away, and ideally I'd like it to recognize that my network config. is up and working. I tried editing /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf and changed [ifup | 00:41 |
| tarnold | managed=false to true, and then restarting nm-applet, but this doesn't do much. Any help? | 00:41 |

| bazhang | n2diy, .3 is a point release with all the security and bug fixes | 01:20 |
| bazhang | ufd, you need to provide more details than 'it always crashes' | 01:20 |
| n2diy | madberry: bazhang, ok, so why are the release dates identical, as that a trick played at the mirror sight? | 01:21 |

| EUB-362 | ndiswrapper | 01:25 |
| EUB-362 | using the win drivers | 01:25 |
| bazhang | EUB-362, madwifi does not support that? | 01:25 |
| EUB-362 | dunno | 01:25 |
| aresnick | My / partition is too small to accommodate an "apt-get -f install" -- is there a good way to resize it without losing data? And maybe more conveniently, can I symlink or something similar to provide extra space so that I can install something right now? | 01:25 |

| EUB-362 | madberry wlan0 is listed and its working but for the on-board wireless not the usb | 01:52 |
| Biovore | Kingsy101: you know what source code it is. If it perl or python.. no compiling is need.. | 01:52 |
| dserban_ | or do i look at backports? | 01:53 |

| Hentai | in the latest ubuntu can you install video drivers without rebooting? | 01:53 |
| madberry | EUB-362: Exactly the USB should have wlan1 or something but it's not listed according to the wiki this means you need a different drive to get it to work | 01:53 |
| Kingsy102 | but yea did you see the site I gave? with the app on it I am trying to install? | 01:53 |
| IdleOne | Kingsy101: that is a windows app | 01:54 |
| biggleswirth | madberry: I am currently connected to my server through ssh at the moment, so I can only assume that it is working, but it could be on it's last legs I guess | 01:54 |
| Kingsy102 | it says its cross platform | 01:54 |
| Biovore | Kingsy102: its a java program.. there is a .sh file in there.. just run it.. ./<filename.sh> | 01:54 |
| vegancheesesteak | what user/group does apache run as in 8.04? | 01:54 |
| EUB-362 | that same wiki gives the link for the driver I installed | 01:54 |

| biggleswirth | madberry: by sso, do you mean "single sign on"? Sorry, not familliar with that acronym | 01:56 |
| Biovore | monostone: yeah.. that one should work, assuming your using only the ubuntu 6.06 stock repos. just need to update your apt sources to use the new release and do a dist-upgrade | 01:56 |
| Biovore | !dist-upgrad | 01:56 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about dist-upgrad | 01:56 |
| Biovore | !dist-upgrade | 01:56 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 01:57 |
| Flannel | Biovore, no, manually editing his sources is not the right way to upgrade. | 01:57 |
| madberry | biggleswirth: No sorry i meant so lol | 01:57 |
| EUB-362 | are you giving up mayberry? | 01:57 |
| EUB-362 | I followed the intructions to do this and that included downloading the drivers | 01:58 |
| madberry | EUB-362: No you need to find the right driver to make the USB wireless work. | 01:58 |
| IdleOne | Kingsy101: you may want to check out cbrpager or comix, both can be installed from repos | 01:58 |
| Biovore | monostone: sudo do-release-upgrade <-- thats the ubuntu "offical way to do it" (need to install it first) | 01:58 |
| EUB-362 | was almost done but the command listed to bind to wlan0 errored | 01:58 |
| vegancheesesteak | is the apache group still www-data? if so why cant i add a user to this group? | 01:58 |
| EUB-362 | This driver is the only one known to work | 01:59 |
| EUB-362 | that I know of | 01:59 |
| biggleswirth | madberry: ahh ok, well I can say for certain that it won't stay connected, because it's only a matter of time before the connection drops. It's happens fairly frequently. Sounds like a hardware issue to you? | 01:59 |
| Flannel | vegancheesesteak: It is, how are you trying to add a user? | 01:59 |
| monostone | Biovore, Flannel yes, but the specific issue i have is that i don't have easy physical access to this server box, and I need to execute the dist-upgrade via ssh. I wanted to know if this is reliable | 01:59 |
| EUB-362 | oh I see you think I should start over with madwifi | 01:59 |
| Flannel | monostone: I've done it. Actually, the upgrader will open up a redundant ssh server during the upgrade for you too. | 02:00 |
| madberry | EUB-362: Sounds like a plan | 02:00 |
| monostone | Flannel, !! had no idea, excellent | 02:00 |

| EUB-362 | the bind command was wrong | 02:00 |

| Biovore | monostone: In my experiance, its a crap shoot... ( have had good success and some failures.. if its a stock 6.06 install it "should" work ) | 02:01 |
| Kingsy102 | btw, i closed my irssi before without exiting (crashed out) how do you use a terminal again to check what processes are running and kill one of them? I forget the command | 02:01 |
| madberry | biggleswirth: Let's start with the hardware before we dissect the OS | 02:01 |
| Flannel | vegancheesesteak: You need t0 remember to use -a there, but instead, just do this: sudo adduser username www-data | 02:01 |

| monostone | Biovore, not exactly stock, lots of custom applications and configurations, obviously if an upgrade via ssh is viable, I will first uninstall all I can, so the dist-upgrade has less work to do. My main worry was if distribution upgrades via ssh where not recommended | 02:03 |

| musikgoat | tony8: that is the most stable currently, but true linux users would say if you wanted to truly learn about linux, read gentoo wiki and install gentoo | 02:52 |
| DigitalKiwi | tony8: you're asking in an ubuntu channel, most people here are going to say ubuntu, those who would say otherwise (myself...) would risk being banned for saying what they would recommend... | 02:52 |

| FAJALOU | Hi I am trying to run a command on my computer whenever it wakes up, but it seems to be making the computer not go to sleep. It's a simple sudo ifconfig ra0 down; sudo ifconfig ra0 up in /etc/pm/sleep.d | 02:53 |
| musikgoat | tony8: i wouldn't recommend it for your proprietary hardware | 02:53 |
| musikgoat | DigitalKiwi: :P i don't want to start a flame war | 02:53 |
| bastid_raZor | jmarsden: no, being able to enable compiz depends on your card. installing it or not has nothing to do with your video card. | 02:53 |
| FAJALOU | Hi I am trying to run a command on my computer whenever it wakes up, but it seems to be making the computer not go to sleep. It's a simple sudo ifconfig ra0 down; sudo ifconfig ra0 up in /etc/pm/sleep.d and whenever I allow it to be executable, the system will not stay asleep. | 02:53 |

| jmarsden | bastid_raZor: It's not my issue :) I don't need compiz, I was answering a question about what command to type to install it. | 02:56 |
| unop | Moon_Doggy, what are the permissions on the file ? | 02:56 |

| Moon_Doggy | i just made the dir their shouldn't be a file their | 02:57 |
| RHorse | bastid_raZor jmarsden isn't it already included in most releases? | 02:57 |
| unop | Moon_Doggy, well if you read the idesk documentation - they say that atleast one icon file must exist in ~/.idesktop/ | 02:58 |
| jmarsden | bastid_raZor: Sure, but if you uninstall it you might then need to reinstall it... the question was asked... the question was answered (or so I thought) | 02:58 |
| Moon_Doggy | so make icon file? | 02:58 |
| RHorse | jmarsden the op, silent, couldn't figger out how to install/turn it on. Anyway, the op is gone now. | 02:59 |

Every so often though, I'll turn on the computer and the disk will be read just fine. Anybody know what might cause this? | 02:59 |
| unop | Moon_Doggy, well, you can copy the default one. cp /usr/share/idesk/default.lnk ~/.idesktop/ | 02:59 |
| jmarsden | Pytlask: A dirty or scratched DVD? | 03:00 |
| unop | Moon_Doggy, there are other sample config files in /usr/share/idesk/ | 03:00 |

| Pytlask | Though I suppose it's possible that this particular drive is more sensitive than the others | 03:00 |
| RHorse | Pytlask it's not automounting or only sporadically. You can mount it at command line, prolly | 03:01 |
| Pytlask | RHorse: Hmm, what command would I use to do that? | 03:01 |
| emilio | My OS said that my printer job is finished but nothing comes out of the printerrrrrrrrrr | 03:01 |

| unop | Moon_Doggy, well heh - why is this folder owned by root? sudo chown $USER.$USER -R ~/.idesktop/ | 03:07 |
| unop | Moon_Doggy, I'm guessing you used sudo while creating this directory too? | 03:07 |
| Moon_Doggy | ya because of the whole Permission denied | 03:08 |
| unop | Moon_Doggy, well, as a rule of the thumb, any files/directories in your homedirectory need to be owned by you (98% of the time atleast) | 03:09 |
| unop | Moon_Doggy, so in this case using sudo wasn't a good idea | 03:09 |
| Moon_Doggy | kk | 03:09 |
| jmarsden | Moon_Doggy: The "permission denied" was because earlier you were trying to create it in the wrong place :) | 03:09 |

| Moon_Doggy | try root | 03:10 |
| Moon_Doggy | being^^ | 03:10 |
| jmarsden | rpk: /sys is a pseudo filesystem... if it won't let you rm something then that means the code implementing it doesn't know what rm'ing it would "mean" in the real world... | 03:11 |
| DougM | hey.. alright I went ahead and installed build-essential then just created a simple C++ script in Bluefish editor and saved it to my desktop as test.cpp , I then went to compile the code by typing g++ test.cpp but I keep getting the following error "g++: test.cpp: No such file or directory" " g++: no input files". Anyone have any idea why this is happening or what I am doing wrong? | 03:11 |
| unop | rpk, you shouldn't be deleting files in /sys anyway | 03:11 |
| jmarsden | rpk: What exactly are you trying to achieve | 03:11 |
| moonshine | does anyone knows the version with which the kernel: 2.6.26-15 is compiled? i need the exact version | 03:11 |
| jmarsden | DougM: Your desktop is the directory ~/Desktop/ not ~/ so cd Desktop and try again if you really want to be compiling stuff on your desktop :) | 03:12 |
| rpk | i need to remove a directory, vmx something or other | 03:12 |
| rpk | so i can update vmware-tools | 03:12 |

| moonshine | anyone? | 03:12 |
| unop | FAJ, hold on, i'm still looking for the directory (it's been awhile since I did this) | 03:12 |
| rpk | and, i am running as root | 03:12 |
| DougM | jmarsden: alright cool thanks | 03:13 |
| FAJ | unop: good stuffs. | 03:13 |
| unop | FAJ, what is the output of this on your machine? ls -l /etc/acpi/suspend.d/ | 03:13 |
| jmarsden | rpk: No... /sys is no place to removing directories... and vmx something or other is a little vague. Who told you to remove what exactly? | 03:13 |
| tony8 | musikgoat: any suggestions for forcing ubuntu to pick up an ipod? sometimes i have to reboot to get the icon to appear, and the usb is recognised and working | 03:13 |
| rpk | so the directory inside sys/modules/vmxnet isn't the one i'm looking for? | 03:13 |
| jmarsden | No, that is a *pseudo* filesystem | 03:13 |
| jmarsden | Are you trying to unload that module?? | 03:14 |
| unop | rpk, I think the better way is probably to unload the vmxnet module | 03:14 |
| rpk | vmware-tools install had a problem with it being installed | 03:14 |
| rpk | ok, is there any chance it meant another directory instead, named the same thing? | 03:14 |
| jmarsden | rpk: what was the *exact* error message you saw? | 03:14 |
| unop | rpk, I think you want this instead. sudo modprobe -r vmxnet | 03:14 |
| rpk | "rm: cannot remove `/sys/module/vmxnet/drivers/pci:vmxnet': Operation not permitted " | 03:15 |

| unop | FAJ, let's have a look at lsmod | grep -i rt | 03:40 |

| unop | FAJ, yea, what you can do is edit the file and add this module on i.e. SUSPEND_MODULES="rt2870 rt2870sta" | 03:42 |
| FAJ | unop | 03:42 |
| unop | FAJ, that should catch both modules | 03:42 |
| FAJ | unoop: ok i just changed it to *sta | 03:42 |

| Manos | I need some help on something, I am helping a friend to migrate to linux, and he tried out WUBI, but it doesn't work | 03:43 |
| unop | FAJ, ok, so what's not working exactly? | 03:43 |
| FAJ | unop: well it is effectively sleeping; but when it resumes, it seems like the module for the wifi is 'stuck on' per se, so I have to disalbe (ifconfig down) and then enable (up) | 03:44 |
| Manos | Oh and can you guys see me and my messages, because the IRC is acting funny and idk if I am even visibl3e | 03:44 |
| sebsebseb | !details | Manos | 03:44 |
| ubottu | Manos: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 03:44 |
| sebsebseb | !work | Manos | 03:45 |
| ubottu | Manos: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 03:45 |
| xeer | Uhh i don't know whats up with this usb installer but it's dropping me to a plain terminal without giving me the boot menu | 03:45 |
| xeer | how can I get the system installed without using X? | 03:45 |
| unop | FAJ, well, did you give it enough time though -- loading a module, associating with an AP, authenticating, etc takes about 10 seconds or so | 03:45 |
| Manos | Problem: Wubi doesn't open up, OS: Win Vista, tried disabling the crappy Norton, still won't open up | 03:45 |
| FAJ | unop: lol well i just unslept, and still nothing. | 03:45 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: ok well it's not that hard to dual boot with real partitions :) | 03:46 |
| FAJ | and i can't see anything in wicd; no wireless networks found. | 03:46 |
| sebsebseb | !dualboot | Manos | 03:46 |
| ubottu | Manos: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot | 03:46 |
| Manos | I know it's not hard but the user I am talking about is really noob, | 03:46 |
| unop | FAJ, does iwlist list any networks? | 03:46 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: ok which is why you help them set it up, or you set it up for them? | 03:46 |
| FAJ | unop: when I run the command sudo ifconfig ra0 down; ruso ifconfig ra0 up it works off the bat. | 03:46 |
| Manos | help them set it up | 03:46 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: Ok and you know how to dual boot? | 03:47 |
| Manos | I know, yes | 03:47 |
| bastid_raZor | FAJ: on my resume it takes about 25 seconds to reconnect to the AP. a delay is normal. | 03:47 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: Then you should be ok. | 03:48 |
| Manos | here is a post he just created "http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7940363#post7940363" | 03:48 |
| FAJ | bastid_raZor: but i can always see the network before it connects; i don't see anything :) | 03:48 |
| Tead | I just installed 9.10 a5 beside a windows installation, I resized the windows partition for ubuntu, but now at boot in Grub i don't see the windows instal listed, how do I add the windows install to grub | 03:49 |
| Manos | @sebsebseb, they are reluctant of actual dualbooting... | 03:49 |
| FAJ | unop: yah.... nothing so far? that's why i was asking if i could just get a command ran at unsleep? lol but w/e works. | 03:49 |
| FAJ | unop: the only thing that seems to be working is that command... | 03:50 |
| Manos | sebsebseb: However that's not the problem...The problem is that wubi won't work and I don't know what's wrong with it. It won't even start up when executed | 03:50 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: I see, well you make it clear to them, that it should be fine, as long as you let Vista resize itself, otherwise dataloss might happen | 03:50 |
| unop | FAJ, ok, hold on .. | 03:50 |
| FAJ | unop: kk | 03:51 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: ok if Wubi won't work and they won't let you dual boot I have another suggestion | 03:51 |
| Manos | sebsebseb: Will try to but is there any workaround for wubi ? | 03:51 |
| Manos | sebsebseb: Yes ? | 03:51 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: or two even, if they got a big enough USBStick/FlashDrive that they will allow Ubuntu to be installed on | 03:51 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: Wubi can go wrong on certain computers | 03:51 |
| xeer | how can I get the system installed without using X? compiling is not an option, im pressed on time | 03:52 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: and in this case I guess there isn't much that can be done about it, it should just install | 03:52 |
| Manos | sebsebseb: indeed, I have had problems a year ago with it | 03:52 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: ok if Wubi is out and proper dual boot is out at the moment, well an Ubuntu virtual machine inside Windows I hope is still in :) | 03:53 |
| unop | FAJ, ok, save http://pastebin.com/d384e0f50 to new file called say /etc/pm/sleep.d/action_wireless .. then sudo chmod +x /etc/pm/sleep.d/action_wireless | 03:53 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: then hopefuly around the time 9.10 comes out which is October 29th when it's released, they will let you help them set up a proper partitioned dual boot | 03:53 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: so 9.04 can just be used for trying, getting a feel for Ubuntu in a vm | 03:53 |
| unop | FAJ, then try stuff out | 03:53 |
| unop | FAJ, actually place a shebang (line #1) too containing #!/bin/sh | 03:54 |
| FAJ | unop: is it okay to use gui to change perms? | 03:55 |
| unop | FAJ, well yea, but ensure that they do infact come into effect | 03:55 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: then also hopefuly later on, they can have Ubuntu as host, with Windows in a vm, if at all :) | 03:55 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: got to do stuff in stages with people like that, shoudn't just dump them into the deep end to begin with | 03:56 |
| sebsebseb | Manos: ,but I know from experience that even not so technical people can get on great with Ubuntu, as long as someone helps them out properly enough with it to begin with | 03:57 |
| FAJ | AHA | 03:57 |
| FAJ | unop: that did it. | 03:57 |
| unop | FAJ, cool stuff | 03:57 |
| FAJ | unop: YAP | 03:57 |

I think I've done it right, and when I run the daemon (the executable), it needs to access /var/run/istat/ to write some files.

When I run istatd, it says "Could not create pid file | 04:02 |

| proh_ | I found my answer.. [last] (just to note) | 05:10 |
| tarnold | Can someone help me? I can see a machine that I have control of from the outside via SSH and also through what Apache is putting out (if I go to http://myIP I see a test page), but if I ping it, or do a traceroute, I can't see it; these commands hang / timeout. Does someone know what's going ON? | 05:10 |
| proh_ | tarnold, then that's on your networks side. Router/firewall blocking ping replies.. I wouldn't worry about it. | 05:11 |
| Gnea | tarnold: firewall probably | 05:11 |
| Chaorain | heartbeats: and rebooted each time? | 05:11 |
| prospire | Gnea: I have done that | 05:11 |
| prospire | still not working | 05:11 |

| heartbeats | yap | 05:11 |
| kerin | tarnold: i assume those ports are blocked but SSH is not | 05:11 |
| Chaorain | heartbeats: well got me then | 05:11 |
| tarnold | proh_ Gnea okay, is there a way I can probe what's open and what's closed? I don't particularly want to ping it, but I am trying to access it in a different way and am coming up short and assuming that this ping / traceroute evidence is related | 05:11 |
| proh_ | nmap | 05:12 |
| Gnea | prospire: i have no idea then... perhaps the people in #apache or #httpd might know | 05:12 |
| heartbeats | when typed sudo nvidia-setting | 05:12 |

| Gnea | Roasted: gftp | 05:19 |
| Reactor | heartbeats: wait plz | 05:19 |
| heartbeats | restart the pc | 05:19 |
| tyl3r | @Roasted: gftp or filezilla... | 05:19 |
| scott___ | hey | 05:19 |
| Roasted | I'm having issues with filezilla... it's saying my router is tainting my connection despite the fact I forwarded ports. Nobody on 3 forums can help me figure it out so I want to try something besides filezilla to see if that'll work instead. | 05:20 |
| tyl3r | then try gftp | 05:20 |
| heartbeats | are you there? | 05:20 |
| xeer | SnakDoc: "server install" required rsplib-tools which is in universe | 05:20 |
| Roasted | is gftp command line? It says I already have it installed and I have no idea where... | 05:20 |
| tyl3r | if you still have your issue, guess you should analyze network traffic to have a look at what goes wrong... | 05:20 |
| xeer | Gnea, it's a via 1.5ghz with 2gb of ram | 05:20 |
| Roasted | nevermind - Im an idiot. I see it. | 05:20 |
| tyl3r | no roasted, its a gui | 05:21 |

| heartbeats | how can i restart the x server | 05:21 |
| xeer | Gnea, it's UniChrome9 | 05:21 |

| Gnea | xeer: that's weird... it's not an nvidia or ati? | 05:21 |
| SnakDoc | xeer i come in at end of question just seen you was wanting install with out x believe there is a alternative install cd for things like that also | 05:21 |

| ubottu | heartbeats: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 05:22 |
| xeer | Gnea, most likely not since I'm coming from ubuntu 9.04 that was working fine (for the most part; sound drivers, 3d accl, etc..) | 05:22 |
| kurrata | lstarnes yes, it was tomboy thx | 05:22 |
| scott___ | im having trouble making my webserver accessible from the wan i have my router forwarding port 80 to my webserver but whenever i type my routers public ip into a browser it wont talk | 05:23 |
| RedSocrates | scott___, are you allowing connections to httpd in /etc/hosts.allow? | 05:23 |
| tyl3r | scott: make a telnet from outside your land to your wan ip port 80....if not accepted, the port is not forwarded...also try telnet localhost 80 to check if its really listening | 05:23 |

| scott___ | the telnet didnt work but that may be because i tried it from a local windows machine | 05:26 |
| khufu | gnea, a netbook | 05:27 |
| tyl3r | if telnet suceeds, input something in the consolce like GET http://www.google.com | 05:27 |
| lstarnes | tyl3r: that isn't correct | 05:27 |
| Gnea | khufu: okay, but... asus? acer? msi? ? | 05:27 |

| danbhfive | GhostWolfy: click the test buttons, change the selections till you find ones that work | 05:43 |
| pyro2927 | kromar: ok, sounds like you will be booting to the drive that has windows, and you just need to re-install grub to that drive? right? | 05:43 |

| mrbook | Reactor: and I can't seem to get any sound. I was trying to see something on youtube. First I had to download the flashplayer. once I got that the video worked but still no sound.. not even a wave file will work, | 05:47 |
| kromar | pyro2927: it says "You also need to mount your /boot partition if you made one, like this :" but did i made a /boot partition? o_O | 05:48 |
| mrbook | reactor: are you saying that the wireless is causing the problem. | 05:48 |

| conjurer | scott___: are you using the port when you try and connect | 05:51 |

| RHorse | scott___ it doesn't matter. If both puters are connected to the same network, it may not work. Try it from a puter outside the network, and I bet it works ok | 05:54 |
| GhostWolfy | danbhfive, well i didn't know if it was properly but the lighting is still an issue and i have problems on skype and and amsn when i try to configure/test it | 05:54 |

| lordcorm | so ones i install the kde modules through the synaptic package manage, I just logout and change the session type? | 06:12 |
| axle | apparently it supports my chip and the x2 dual core series | 06:12 |
| lordcorm | once* | 06:12 |
| axle | which doesn't make sense to me unless my processor is actually dual core 2, which it's not | 06:12 |
| axle | plus i see x2, 3800+ chips, i am wondering if im missing something with the terminology here | 06:13 |
| axle | a amd athlon 64bit 3800+ is different than a md athlon 64bit x2 3800+ | 06:13 |
| axle | ? | 06:13 |
| DigitalKiwi | same socket | 06:13 |
| axle | yeah | 06:14 |
| DigitalKiwi | i've actually used both of those chips | 06:14 |
| GhostWolfy | DigitalKiwi, do you know what will make my webcam not show lot of light?? | 06:14 |
| axle | they are different though? one is dual core of same frequency? | 06:14 |
| DigitalKiwi | on the 939 socket (i think they are also on the other one...) | 06:14 |
| Bluey | i am still trying to find a driver for my webcam. | 06:14 |
| DigitalKiwi | GhostWolfy: no | 06:15 |
| GhostWolfy | DigitalKiwi, if you want i have a image of my screen to show what im talking about | 06:15 |
| axle | yeah 939 is what i got, i just don't see how my mobo can use dual cores | 06:15 |
| DigitalKiwi | axle: well ofc they are different but they use the same socket | 06:15 |
| deejaydblock | Question. How do I update firefox to the latest version on Ubuntu. I've read several articles and pages about this but it is a bit confusing. | 06:16 |

| ubottu | deejaydblock: Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 and firefox-3.5-gnome-support | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko in your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 06:17 |
| axle | so your saying that the online information on my mobo is correct and my motherboard using a athlon 64-bit non dual core chip, CAN ALSO use a x2 dual core? just need to clarify | 06:17 |
| alex2 | Hello, I had a quick question that I can't seem to find the answer to in the forums or elsewhere online--how do I access files on a root.disk file? | 06:17 |
| DigitalKiwi | axle: yes | 06:17 |
| deejaydblock | But it says it installs it along side firefox 3 | 06:17 |
| deejaydblock | i don't want that | 06:17 |
| alex2 | I have a root.disk from a previous installation and I want to rescue some of the documents on that file | 06:17 |
| deejaydblock | I want to udgrade Firefox 3 to Firefox 3.6 | 06:18 |
| deejaydblock | 5* | 06:18 |
| GhostWolfy | DigitalKiwi, and for anyone who wants to help me this is what it looks like when i use cheese or even amsn with my webcam http://img2.imageshack.us/img2/7725/screenshotbj.png | 06:18 |
| DigitalKiwi | if the mobo supports x2 then well...you can run an x2 processor in it, else it wouldn't support x2... ;p | 06:18 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: it is recommended that you not replace it | 06:18 |
| josh_ | axle, is there a significant price difference between those two chips? | 06:18 |
| axle | thank you digitalkiwi, lol, i understand, i would trust the information about my mobo more if i actually had the manual lol | 06:18 |
| deejaydblock | why not? | 06:18 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: if you upgrade to 9.10, firefox will automatically be replaced with 3.5 | 06:19 |
| DigitalKiwi | josh_: i can't even find them anymore for 939 hardly | 06:19 |
| axle | not sure, was looking at x2's on ebay | 06:19 |
| deejaydblock | ok cool | 06:19 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: also, some packages may rely on the pre-installed firefox | 06:19 |
| josh_ | wikipedia says.... | 06:19 |
| axle | was thinking about over-clocking and looked up my mobo specs and was like, i can use dual cores? | 06:19 |
| DigitalKiwi | would have to get the opterons :/ | 06:19 |
| DigitalKiwi | which isn't necessarily a bad thing, they oc better in theory | 06:20 |
| deejaydblock | How can I check my version of Ubuntu? | 06:20 |
| sub[t]rnl | deejaydblock: lsb_release -r | 06:20 |
| josh_ | axle, wikipedia says that the athlon 64 x2 processor is the dual-core equivalent of the athlon 64 processor. | 06:20 |
| DigitalKiwi | axle: *my* 3800+ overclocked exceedingly well, 2.7ghz air cooling, ymmv | 06:20 |
| josh_ | so I would say there is a *significant* difference between the two. | 06:21 |
| deejaydblock | How do I upgrade to 9.10 | 06:21 |
| axle | 3800+ original? i dont think my mobo can do that though | 06:21 |

| ubottu | heartbeats, please see my private message | 06:26 |
| sub[t]rnl | micahg: It's a non issue really, firefox updates itself with security patches, so you really don't have to rely on the repo's for a stand-alone browser like firefox. | 06:26 |
| Reactor | heartbeat: try to remove your drivers and install the later or earlierversion | 06:26 |
| micahg | sub[t]rnl: yes, but that can cause problems for some users | 06:26 |
| micahg | and we do ship it in ubuntu with updates | 06:27 |
| axle | okay digitalkiwi, final question, and this one is good, difference between a 3800+ and x2 3800+, how noticeable, for general curiosity | 06:27 |
| micahg | and switching from the ubuntu version to the mozilla version is not recommended unless you start with a clean profile | 06:27 |
| DigitalKiwi | axle: substantial | 06:27 |
| axle | very interesting, thanx | 06:28 |
| sub[t]rnl | micahg: No problems at all here. | 06:28 |
| * micahg guesses no one knows about lexmark printers... | 06:28 | |
| deejaydblock | That is kind of a bummer. Is Ubuntu working to make installing software easier and more fluid? | 06:28 |
| micahg | deejaydblock: it's there and it works fine | 06:28 |

| sub[t]rnl | hackeron: or drop into an interactive root shell using sudo -i (or su -) | 06:43 |
| hackeron | sub[t]rnl: I don't want to run my entire python program with root priviledges - I just want it to be able to generate an ICMP packet | 06:43 |
| hackeron | sub[t]rnl: sending an ICMP packet to a host shouldn't require root priveledges really... | 06:43 |

| RHorse | King2 looks like your video is broke. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will reconfigure X for you. If it doesnt' work, try using a lower (different) resolution or use the generic (vga) driver. That's my best advice, but someone may have better advice concerning your particular video driver/card, etc. | 06:46 |
| sub[t]rnl | hackeron: hrmn, I guess root is required for access to the raw ICMP socket | 06:46 |

| Stumpie | I am a single guy, how do I meet ubuntu women? | 07:27 |
| deejaydblock | i did it didnt do anything | 07:27 |
| deejaydblock | program is still up | 07:27 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: is it run as root/ | 07:28 |
| RHorse | !love | Stumpie | 07:28 |
| ubottu | Stumpie: Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come. | 07:28 |
| neekers | Doc-Saintly: i'm on an xp box right now running ubuntu in microsoft virtual pc 2007, which is only 30MB, it runs alright but it doesnt share files with XP and you have to click the right-alt key to regain control of the mouse in XP | 07:28 |
| Madpilot | Stumpie, off-topicness goes to #ubuntu-offtopic... but a/s/l is off-topic even there. | 07:28 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: who is the owner? | 07:28 |
| deejaydblock | i dont understand what you are asking | 07:28 |
| deejaydblock | i am | 07:28 |
| Stumpie | ok thanks :) | 07:28 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: i tried running X -configure, but this error message came up: Fatal Server Error: could not create lock file /tmp/.tX0-lock | 07:28 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: are you trying to kill a frozen app? | 07:28 |
| Doc-Saintly | neekers: that's actually desireable, otherwise a lot of your keypresses would be sent to the host pc instead. | 07:28 |
| dbuell | Stumpie: and RHorse: Wow that cracked me up... but it is off topic... | 07:28 |
| deejaydblock | yeah its frozen | 07:28 |
| deejaydblock | like i click x | 07:29 |
| djanatyn | Sorry, connection troubles. | 07:29 |
| deejaydblock | it wont kill it | 07:29 |
| bis | ManDay: maybe you have another service that uses watchdog, for example | 07:29 |
| Doc-Saintly | neekers: vbox has support for guest additions which allow you to put focus in and out of the program based on your mouse cursor. and you can share files from the host to the client. it's what i use. very low overhead. | 07:29 |
| neekers | Doc-Saintly: the main thing i would like would be file sharing... | 07:29 |
| sub[t]rnl | deejaydblock: hehe.. do this. alt + f2 then type "xkill" | 07:29 |
| sub[t]rnl | deejaydblock: then just click on the window. | 07:29 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: ok in a terminal rm that file .tx0-lock | 07:29 |
| neekers | Doc-Saintly: cool, thanks, i'm downloading it now | 07:29 |
| djanatyn | How do I configure ubuntu so that it starts up with awesome-wm instead of gnome? | 07:29 |
| roccity_ | and then try again | 07:29 |
| Doc-Saintly | neekers: np | 07:29 |
| djanatyn | I don't know how to get to a tty-I'm used to arch T_T | 07:29 |
| sub[t]rnl | deejaydblock: but you should get familiar with PID's and kill like roccity_ was saying | 07:30 |
| Reactor | sub[t]rnl: I used pidgin-extprefs plugin now. Working :) | 07:30 |
| sub[t]rnl | Reactor: grats bro | 07:30 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: are you using gnome? | 07:30 |
| deejaydblock | that didn't do it either | 07:30 |
| Stumpie | you can make a shortcut on your quicklaunch bar for Xkill too... really nice :) | 07:30 |
| deejaydblock | idk im using Ubuntu 9.04 | 07:30 |
| Doc-Saintly | neekers: mount.vboxsf sharename sharename | 07:30 |
| deejaydblock | this language is confusing | 07:30 |
| Doc-Saintly | neekers: it's that easy after you've put in the guest additions etc. | 07:30 |
| jmarsden | deejaydblock: kill -9 PIDNUMBER # as a lasty resort before killing off your X session entirely... | 07:30 |
| ManDay | bis, but how could it be there if I don't even have it installed! | 07:31 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: if you are there is a panel app called force quit try that | 07:31 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: then i try X -configure again after rm .t10-lock? | 07:31 |
| Madpilot | deejaydblock, in Gnome, try clicking the X (close window button) three or four times in a row... | 07:31 |
| Reactor | sub[t]rnl: ty | 07:31 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: yeah | 07:31 |
| ubuntucrashed | kk brb | 07:31 |
| neekers | thanks | 07:31 |
| Stumpie | there is nonoe in #ubuntu-offtopic, you tricked me !! | 07:31 |
| RHorse | djanatyn you can open a terminal from the menu, or ctl-alt-F1 to get back ctl-alt-F7 | 07:31 |
| deejaydblock | didnt work madpilot | 07:32 |
| deejaydblock | is Ubuntu also called Gnome/ | 07:32 |
| deejaydblock | ? | 07:32 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: no. | 07:32 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: ubuntu is a linux distributin | 07:32 |
| Stumpie | gnome is the window manager and enviornment deejaydblock | 07:32 |
| jmarsden | deejaydblock: No, GNOME is a desktop environment, Ubuntu is a Linux distribution :) | 07:32 |
| lstarnes | *distribution | 07:32 |
| bis | ManDay: try to install (via apt) apt-rdepends ,so you can see what service need watchdog | 07:32 |
| djanatyn | GNOME is a desktop environment. You can run GNOME from any linux distro. | 07:32 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: that is the window manager or desktop manager | 07:32 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: gnome is a desktop environment | 07:32 |
| dbuell | djanatyn: if you are using gdm you need to make a new session configuration file for X | 07:32 |
| lstarnes | Stumpie: actually, gnome uses metacity or copmiz as its window manager | 07:33 |
| bis | ManDay: even when it isn't installed | 07:33 |
| jmarsden | deejaydblock: Did kill -9 and the PID number not work to kill your hung application window?? | 07:33 |
| deejaydblock | im trying it now | 07:33 |
| roccity_ | djanatyn: you can try logging out and then back in | 07:33 |
| Stumpie | deejaydblock, try xfce, it will make you feel alive and sexy! | 07:33 |
| deejaydblock | kill -9 did the trick | 07:33 |
| deejaydblock | thanks | 07:33 |
| jmarsden | deejaydblock: Good :) | 07:33 |
| deejaydblock | is there an easier way to kill off frozen windows? | 07:34 |
| Stumpie | tou can do a task kill from the termial too deejaydblock | 07:34 |
| jmarsden | deejaydblock: It deends exactly how they are "frozen". The xkill way is "easier" when it works... | 07:34 |
| === floopsie is now known as Floops | ||
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: if you are usinga stock ubuntu use the force quit panel button | 07:34 |
| Stumpie | I have an Xkill icon on my quicklaunch bar | 07:34 |
| sub[t]rnl | deejaydblock: sometimes the big guns are required though.. thus the kill -9.. | 07:35 |
| deejaydblock | i dont see a force quit | 07:35 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: just right click on the panel and choose force quit | 07:35 |
| deejaydblock | dont see it | 07:35 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: sorry right click and choose add to panel | 07:35 |
| Terry | hey guys...where can i get ideneb(mac os x) discussions? | 07:35 |
| ManDay | bis, if it's not installed, how can it possibly be run? I'm honestly not getting it! | 07:35 |
| deejaydblock | thats awesome. | 07:35 |
| Stumpie | just do a top, and get the pid number and then just do a :sudo kill (pid number here) | 07:36 |
| eut | what is the name of the general document viewer? | 07:36 |
| ManDay | How can I learn whether my Xorg is using UXA or EXA? | 07:36 |
| deejaydblock | Gnome is the desktop environment? | 07:37 |
| lstarnes | ManDay: I think all ubuntu versions prior to 9.10 use EXA | 07:37 |
| Terry | hey guys...where can i get ideneb(mac os x) discussions? | 07:37 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: yes | 07:37 |
| grikdog | where does Synaptic Package Manager put its installation logs? | 07:37 |
| Stumpie | think there is an xorg.cfg or xorg.rc somewhere | 07:37 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: there are also other desktop environments | 07:37 |
| eut | i want to launch it from the command line but i dont know what it actually is | 07:37 |
| jmarsden | eut: I don't know of a "general document viewer" -- maybe a good text editor such as emacs or vi ? What kind of documents did you have in mind? | 07:37 |
| lstarnes | Stumpie: /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? | 07:37 |
| dbuell | eut: you mean the default text file viewer? | 07:37 |
| eremite | Hi, I have a real big problem. My monitor will no longer detect the proper resolutions. I plugged it into another PC to do some work, and when i plugged it back into my comp it changed the resolutions. This is also effecting windows install. | 07:37 |
| eremite | Im stuck at a very low res | 07:37 |
| jmarsden | eut for text files, less filename | 07:38 |
| Stumpie | lstarnes, yes indeed, thank you :) | 07:38 |
| eut | jmarsden, dbuell: for pdf files, when i open them with firefox it uses "Document Viewer" | 07:38 |
| jmarsden | eut: evince filename & | 07:38 |
| ManDay | lstarnes, I thought so too, but read what someone replied to me on the forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7934663&postcount=1152 | 07:38 |
| lstarnes | grikdog: it's likely somewhere under /var/log | 07:38 |
| sutur | hi, can someone help me with a very, very, very basic shell script question? | 07:39 |
| lstarnes | Stumpie: just ask | 07:39 |
| eremite | Does anyone have an idea why ubuntu wouldnt recognize my monitor resolution settings? | 07:39 |
| lstarnes | Stumpie: oops, that was for sutur | 07:39 |
| eut | jmarsden, hmm... are you sure? | 07:39 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: yeah it all the icons and panel just like windows | 07:39 |
| jmarsden | eut: It works for me here... | 07:39 |
| eut | jmarsden, ah yes, ok thanks | 07:39 |
| sutur | why won't this work: | 07:39 |
| sutur | j=0 | 07:39 |
| sutur | while[$j -le 1] | 07:39 |
| sutur | do | 07:39 |
| sutur | if[$j -eq 0] | 07:39 |
| FloodBot1 | sutur: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:39 |
| sutur | then | 07:39 |
| Terry | hey guys...where can i get ideneb(mac os x) discussions? | 07:39 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: its a enviroment cause you do more than mange apps and windows | 07:39 |
| dbuell | eut: that is evince | 07:39 |
| lstarnes | Terry: try asking in ##mac | 07:40 |
| Terry | connect ##mac | 07:40 |
| eut | dbuell, thanks :] | 07:40 |
| lstarnes | Terry: /join ##mac | 07:40 |
| Terry | lstarns how? | 07:40 |
| eremite | Does anyone know why my monitor will no longer display in the proper reolutions? | 07:40 |
| deejaydblock | ok lol | 07:40 |
| Terry | lstarns ...thanx | 07:40 |
| LLStarks | flash video is now crashing all browsers on my desktop. | 07:41 |
| LLStarks | opera, chromium, firefox. | 07:41 |
| lstarnes | eremite: you may need to reconfigure the resolution | 07:41 |
| deejaydblock | so gnome is the equivalent of windows explorer? | 07:41 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: I didn't know what a desktop enviroment when I started with computers | 07:41 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: somewhat | 07:41 |
| djanatyn_ | How do I completely close out X and get back to the tty? | 07:41 |
| Ahadiel | deejaydblock, Nautilus would be the equivalent of Windows Explorer | 07:41 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: it also contains additonal components | 07:41 |
| Madpilot | deejaydblock, more comprehesive than Explorer | 07:41 |
| sutur | could someone please tell me why this very basic shell script won't work: http://paste.ubuntu.com/270154/ | 07:41 |
| ManDay | What package is the "Helvetica" Font in? | 07:41 |
| mneptok | deejaydblock: no, Nautilus is the equivalent of Explorer. | 07:41 |
| eremite | lstarnes, it was working flawlessly forever, and it all of a sudden stopped working. I didnt even reboot. I unplugged it and used it in another machine, and upon returning it to my PC the resolutions were all screwed. | 07:42 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: it's everything the filee manager,network manager and a few other apps | 07:42 |
| sub[t]rnl | djanatyn_: sudo /etc/init.d/gmd stop | 07:42 |
| Madpilot | ManDay, the MS Core Fonts one - search Nautilus for it | 07:42 |
| C0nn0R_ | djan: you can hit "ctrl and alt and f2" and login. | 07:42 |
| lstarnes | djanatyn_: log out of the desktop, press ctrl+alt+f2, then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 07:42 |
| sub[t]rnl | djanatyn_: gdm* | 07:42 |
| deejaydblock | so the environment is all the applications? | 07:42 |
| C0nn0R_ | To get back to your desktop hit "ctrl+alt+f~" | 07:42 |
| lstarnes | eremite: I'm not sure what would be causing that | 07:42 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: not necessarily | 07:42 |
| C0nn0R_ | To get back to your desktop hit "ctrl+alt+f7"* | 07:42 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: picture a fresh install of windows all that you see minus IE and Outlook is the enviroment | 07:42 |
| mneptok | deejaydblock: there is no analog for a desktop environment in Windows | 07:42 |
| ManDay | Madpilot, thanks ill take ttf-mscorefont-installer | 07:43 |
| Madpilot | ManDay, msttcorefonts is the package name | 07:43 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: there are applications that aren't part of the desktop environment | 07:43 |
| dbuell | deejaydblock: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_environment | 07:43 |
| ManDay | Madpilot, what about my package? | 07:43 |
| Madpilot | ManDay, one sec, let me check | 07:43 |
| mneptok | ManDay: keep that in your trousers. | 07:43 |
| roccity_ | dbuell: thanks | 07:43 |
| iceroot | !bugzilla | 07:43 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about bugzilla | 07:43 |
| sub[t]rnl | lol | 07:43 |
| deejaydblock | ubuntu is frustrating a little bit | 07:44 |
| iceroot | what is the bugadress for ubuntu? | 07:44 |
| deejaydblock | it doesn't work like it should. | 07:44 |
| rww | Where does the output from user cronjobs go if I don't have per-user mailboxes set up? | 07:44 |
| lstarnes | !bug | iceroot | 07:44 |
| ubottu | iceroot: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » If that fails, you can report bugs manually at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots | 07:44 |
| eremite | Ubuntu has so many flaws that its driving me insane. | 07:44 |
| iceroot | lstarnes: thx | 07:44 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: what should it do thatyou can't change/ | 07:44 |
| dbuell | deejaydblock: we are working on that... well... they are working on that... | 07:44 |
| Madpilot | ManDay, the one you found is the newer, correct package. the one I found is the older version. use your package. | 07:44 |
| deejaydblock | for example, i clicked on a button in shiretoko to check if it was default browser, and nothing happened | 07:44 |
| jmarsden | sutur: Add space around the [ and ] and it will work much better | 07:44 |
| ManDay | thanks Madpilot | 07:44 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: that is most likly cause it is | 07:45 |
| iceroot | deejaydblock: you have to set in gconf | 07:45 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: didnt work :( | 07:45 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: what happened? | 07:45 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: you may have to manually go to system > preferences > preferred applications and change firefox to firefox-3.5 | 07:45 |
| deejaydblock | and all this language is confusing | 07:45 |
| deejaydblock | like gconf? | 07:45 |
| deejaydblock | wtf | 07:45 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: that's the configuration backend used by gnome | 07:45 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: it's like windows's registry | 07:46 |
| Madpilot | deejaydblock, gconf is kind of/sort of like the Windows registry. Only not. | 07:46 |
| mneptok | deejaydblock: what is mscvrtshm.dll? | 07:46 |
| iceroot | deejaydblock: you are using shortcuts like wtf and dislike sortcuts for programs? | 07:46 |
| Stumpie | is it possible to change the permissions on my firefox bookmarks, so my fat wife cannot delete my porn links? | 07:46 |
| lstarnes | Stumpie: you should use separate accounts and screen locking | 07:46 |
| ubuntucrashed | i got an error saying that it couldnt rm .tX0-lock because of it was a read-file system | 07:47 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: its short for gnome conf kinda like the reg in win | 07:47 |
| roccity_ | kinda | 07:47 |
| Stumpie | that sounds like a great idea lstarnes :) thank you. | 07:47 |
| jmarsden | sutur: See http://paste.ubuntu.com/270156/ | 07:47 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: hahaha use sudo you have to be root | 07:48 |
| deejaydblock | gotcha | 07:48 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: I still do that | 07:48 |
| roccity_ | forget that it is a root app | 07:48 |
| deejaydblock | okay i went to preferred applications and i can't change the default browser to shiretoko | 07:48 |
| sutur | thanks a lot jmarsden! didn't know it was so sensitive :) | 07:48 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: ok i mounted /dev/sda1 (my HD) so that i can be root without having to keep switching distros | 07:48 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccituy_: ima try it again | 07:49 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: thats cause it really firefox | 07:49 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: change it to custom with the command set to firefox-3.5 %u | 07:49 |
| === `M` is now known as `ana` | ||
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: huh? | 07:49 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: why/ | 07:49 |
| jmarsden | sutur: No problem. [ is a program name so it needs to be see as one, [0 is a different (non-existent) program! | 07:49 |
| deejaydblock | aaah | 07:49 |
| Abhi1234 | I just added a new harddisk to system and able to see it in computer but unable to mount it. How to mount it? | 07:49 |
| iceroot | deejaydblock: write in the command-box there firefox-3.5 instead of firefox | 07:49 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccituy_: because right now im running IRC through live CD of backtrack..since my HD crashed | 07:50 |

| Madpilot | ManDay, Adobe Helvetica won't be in an MS font package. Which app is complaining? | 07:50 |
| roccity_ | deejaydblock: either way it is firefox | 07:50 |
| ManDay | Madpilot, its called ROOT | 07:50 |
| deejaydblock | right, but i'm using shiretoko | 07:51 |
| Dantonic | Hi, I'm having Network Issues with 9.04, I have no Network after suspend, the only way to get it back is to reboot. Would you care to check out my post in forums? Thanks in advance! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1264418 | 07:51 |

| deejaydblock | it has my weave add-on | 07:51 |
| iceroot | deejaydblock: shiretoko = firefox-3.5 | 07:51 |

| Abhi1234 | jmarsden: I have to do that also | 07:53 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: did you create a X file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 07:53 |
| jmarsden | Abhi1234: Then you cannot yet mount it. First you need to create a partition table and then a filesystem or two or three. | 07:53 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: you could try typing the first couple letters of the nick then pressing the TAB key | 07:53 |
| iceroot | deejaydblock: enter first charakters of the name, press tab for auto-complete, then write you question/text/anwser | 07:53 |
| Dantonic | Hi, I'm having Network Issues with 9.04, I have no Network after suspend, the only way to get it back is to reboot. Would you care to check out my post in forums? Thanks in advance! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1264418 | 07:53 |
| brian___ | Has anyone had any luck using a sound blaster live card with jack? | 07:53 |
| deejaydblock | lstarnes: cool | 07:53 |
| Abhi1234 | jmarsden: got you, how to do that | 07:54 |
| jmarsden | Abhi1234: man fdisk for info on fdisk, it creates partition tables. then use mke2fs for creating filesystems on those partitions. | 07:54 |
| ManDay | Does anyone in this channel know what package the HELVETICA font is to be found in? | 07:54 |
| jmarsden | Abhi1234: man mke2fs for more info on that. | 07:54 |
| calwig | Hi, where can I get assistance on Xorg? | 07:54 |
| zefyx | http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/its-official-802-11n-standard-finalized-after-a-mere-seven-yea/ | 07:54 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: how do i create the file again? | 07:55 |
| lstarnes | calwig: here, if you use ubuntu | 07:55 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: are you sure Helvetica is a free font?? | 07:55 |
| djanatyn | That doesn't work for me. | 07:55 |
| ManDay | no, im not jmarsden | 07:55 |
| djanatyn | Whenever I type /etc/rc.d/gdm stop, it says command not found. | 07:55 |
| djanatyn | I don't have an rc.d | 07:55 |
| lstarnes | djanatyn: it's init.d, not rc.d | 07:55 |
| ManDay | but im sure it ships with a vanilla ubuntu | 07:55 |
| calwig | I have two processes running simoultaneously and every once in a while one of the Xorg processes begins to go haywire and run over 90%. I have an ATI X1300 card and running ubuntu 8.04 | 07:55 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: If it is non-free, it is not in any package Ubuntu package by definition, unless you purchased a commercial set of fonds as a package ... | 07:55 |
| iceroot | djanatyn: rc.d = opensuse, ubuntu is usint /etc/init.d/programname start | 07:55 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: boot into single user mode and choose root terminal | 07:56 |
| ubuntucrashed | ok im in it | 07:56 |
| ManDay | jmarsden, I#m 100% sure it must be in the repo | 07:56 |
| ManDay | you have it , too | 07:56 |
| sub[t]rnl | calwig: which process? | 07:56 |
| ManDay | (i supose) | 07:56 |
| lstarnes | iceroot: there are other distros that use rc.d, and many non-linux variants of unix use it | 07:56 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: then type X -configure and it will create the file in /root | 07:56 |
| brian___ | Has anyone had any luck using a sound blaster live card with jack? | 07:56 |
| iceroot | lstarnes: i only saw it in opensuse but good to know | 07:56 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: can you give me a path to the file where it would be... from that I can find a package name... | 07:57 |
| roccity_ | so after you do that it will in the directory that you are in. | 07:57 |
| ManDay | No, sorry I can't | 07:57 |
| roccity_ | so type ls and you will see it there | 07:57 |
| ManDay | jmarsden, look in fontcache | 07:57 |
| iceroot | jmarsden: for find a paketname use apt-cache search paketname if you want to find a filename in a paket use apt-file search filename | 07:57 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: its not there | 07:58 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: then type cp <name of file> /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 07:58 |
| ubuntucrashed | when i type X -configure i get this _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6 | 07:58 |
| ubuntucrashed | _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/bt:0 | 07:58 |

| heartbeats | MY RESOLUTION CHANGES 800X600 ON MY RESTART HELP ME PLEASE | 07:59 |
| iceroot | jmarsden: then why you are asking how to find a specific paket? | 07:59 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: fontcache is not a path... /some/path/to/filename | 07:59 |
| lstarnes | !caps | heartbeats | 07:59 |
| ubottu | heartbeats: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 07:59 |
| ubuntucrashed | i then typed ls and the xorg.config wasnt there | 07:59 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: are you usinga nvidia or ati card? | 07:59 |
| heartbeats | mm | 07:59 |
| heartbeats | ok | 07:59 |
| iceroot | jmarsden: or do you mean locate filename for a search at your hdd? | 07:59 |
| jmarsden | iceroot: ManDay is asking, not me! | 07:59 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: ATI card | 07:59 |
| ubuntucrashed | radeon | 07:59 |
| lstarnes | heartbeats: have you read the pages about fixing resolution? | 07:59 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: thats why | 07:59 |
| heartbeats | no | 07:59 |
| heartbeats | from where? | 07:59 |
| lstarnes | !fixres | heartbeats | 07:59 |
| ubottu | heartbeats: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 07:59 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: what do you mean?? | 08:00 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: ok do this | 08:00 |
| iceroot | jmarsden: ah, i am sorry, sunday in the morning is not a good time :) | 08:00 |
| ubuntucrashed | kk | 08:00 |
| heartbeats | yap but | 08:00 |
| brian___ | Has anyone had any luck using a sound blaster live card with jack? | 08:00 |
| heartbeats | i cant understand any thing | 08:00 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: There is no directory called fontcache on my machine, can you give me a more specific path, or tell me what application will use this font, please? | 08:00 |
| iceroot | !anyone | brian___ | 08:01 |
| ubottu | brian___: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 08:01 |
| ManDay | im on it im on it jmarsden | 08:01 |
| Moon_Doggy | lol | 08:01 |
| ManDay | ROOT, if you are interested in numerical analysis does usse it, jmarsden | 08:01 |
| ManDay | :P | 08:01 |
| spree | Problem - I When doing things involving music, I get intermittent, unrecoverable crashes. the audio loops infinitely a half-second sound sample of whatever was playing, caps lock is unresponsive. memtest was okay. Any suggestions? | 08:02 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: ok type nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf look for driver in the Device I think it is | 08:02 |
| spree | This hapopens on games using wine, in VLC, in xine, in rhythmbox | 08:02 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: might say ati ot radeon change that to vesa | 08:02 |
| ManDay | jmarsden, do you have openoffice? | 08:03 |
| Surlent | is anyone here familiar with finch/pidgin-facebookchat? | 08:03 |
| heartbeats | i just checked the xorg.conf | 08:03 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: this will give you a basic gui but still usablw | 08:03 |
| Moon_Doggy | pidgin | 08:03 |
| Madpilot | ManDay, OpenOffice is installed in Ubuntu by default... | 08:03 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: Yes, but it has its own separate font system, if I remember rightly... | 08:03 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: i have opened up the file but it is empty | 08:03 |
| jmarsden | Madpilot: Some of us use Ubuntu server, do not make assumptions :) | 08:04 |
| brian___ | Hello, i am having an issue determining the subdevices to use in JACK for my soundblaster live 5.1 card. Has anyone had luck figuring it out? | 08:04 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: do you have X installed? | 08:04 |
| Madpilot | jmarsden, OK, fair enough. The default tends to be Ubuntu + Gnome/etc here, though :) | 08:04 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: OK, I'm installing root-system now... | 08:04 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: if you type sudo apt-get install xorg-xserver what does it say? | 08:04 |
| ubuntucrashed | i did before the update? i dont know what happened.. my computer suddenly halted because of the temperature reached | 08:04 |
| ubuntucrashed | ok wait | 08:04 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: what is the DE that you are trying to use | 08:05 |
| calwig | sub[t]rnl: sorry i left for a minute, Xorg process | 08:05 |
| ManDay | jmarsden, awesome, thanks - you'll like the program :D | 08:05 |
| ubuntucrashed | GNOME | 08:05 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: Hmmm, root-system install is now asking me Kerberos config questions, and I don't run Kerberos at home...? | 08:05 |
| calwig | there are two gdm/Xorg processes running, I have compiz running and i have no issues, all is working as it should | 08:05 |
| ManDay | hm, no idea, i dont use kerberos either | 08:05 |
| ManDay | just skip them | 08:05 |
| ManDay | should matter | 08:05 |
| ManDay | *nt | 08:05 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: it says couldn't find package xorg-xserver | 08:06 |
| spree | Problem - When doing things involving music, I get intermittent, unrecoverable crashes. the audio loops infinitely a half-second sound sample of whatever was playing, caps lock is unresponsive. memtest was okay. This happens in VLC, xine, in games using Wine, and in rhythmbox that i have found so far. Any suggestions? | 08:06 |
| brian___ | Hello, i am having an issue determining the subdevices to use in JACK for my soundblaster live 5.1 card. Has anyone had luck figuring it out? | 08:06 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: try sudo apt-get install xorg then | 08:07 |
| ubuntucrashed | i got this when i typed sudo apt-get install xorg: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 08:07 |
| calwig | sub[t]rnl: the issue is that sometimes Xorg begins to go haywire at 90% process and I dont know why, or first of all know why there are two processes running instead of one | 08:08 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: OK, I'm in a "CINT/ROOT C/C++ interpreter interface." How would I get it to insist on using Helvetica :) | 08:08 |
| Raz1 | Hi, I have Ubuntu 9.04 x64, and I watch a lot of videos in browser, but Firefox says I'm missing Flash and Java. Can they be installed on a 64 bit system? | 08:08 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: try sudo aptitude search xorg | 08:08 |
| ManDay | jmarsden, I've looked arround the internet and everyone states that you'd have to install Hevetica manually - but this can't be true as I remember to have had it with my last install without getting it manually | 08:08 |
| ManDay | jmarsden, I get a warning at startup already | 08:09 |
| ManDay | jmarsden, query | 08:09 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: OK | 08:09 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: ok a bunch of drivers are being displayed | 08:09 |
| lstarnes | Raz1: 32-bit flash can be installed through ndiswrapper and there is also a native 64-bit flash | 08:10 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: type sudo apt-get install xorg | 08:10 |
| lstarnes | Raz1: try using the flashplugin-nonfree package | 08:10 |
| Raz1 | Im Very new to linux (like 2 hours, lol) how do I do that? | 08:10 |
| lstarnes | Raz1: there are also java implementations available for 64-bit, but I forget how to set it up | 08:10 |
| lstarnes | Raz1: go to system > administration > synaptic package manager and look for flashplugin-nonfree | 08:11 |
| lstarnes | Raz1: you may need to go to system > administration > software sources and enable the restricted or multiverse repositories | 08:11 |
| leaf-sheep | !flash64 | Raz1 | 08:11 |
| ubottu | Raz1: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava | 08:11 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: i recieved a grip load of error messages | 08:11 |
| leaf-sheep | Raz1: ^^ (for native linux 64-bit plugin support) | 08:12 |
| Raz1 | Thank you | 08:12 |
| Horusofoz | Hi. I'm fairly new to Linux and am having trouble booting Ubuntu from a portable hard drive. I have installed Ubuntu and Grub onto the portable drive and know both are on there, and have set the computers BIOS to booth from usb-bdd as second priority after cd/dvd, but the computer loads straight into XP from the third priority device (hard disk) and grub/ubuntu as a result. Can anyone advise on likely issues? | 08:13 |
| lstarnes | Raz1: the instructions there involve using a 32-bit firefox, but I somehow managed to get java working in a 64-bit firefox | 08:13 |
| Horusofoz | Sorryfor the long post | 08:13 |
| brian___ | Hello, i am having an issue determining the subdevices to use in JACK for my soundblaster live 5.1 card. Has anyone had luck figuring it out? | 08:13 |
| Raz1 | I found flashplugn-nonfree in sunaptic package manager but what about Java? | 08:15 |
| lstarnes | Raz1: there are several implementations for it | 08:15 |
| lstarnes | !java | Raz1 | 08:15 |
| ubottu | Raz1: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 08:15 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: i recieved a grip load of error messages | 08:16 |
| Dayofswords | does ubuntu use an older linux kernal because it customized for ubuntu? | 08:16 |
| Madpilot | Raz1, Sun Java is probably what you want. It's the most functional version... | 08:16 |
| lstarnes | Dayofswords: it uses an older kernel because it tries to use the same version of everything that it had when it was released | 08:16 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: what did they say | 08:16 |
| Madpilot | Dayofswords, Ubuntu updates with each new release, every six months, but not usually otherwise | 08:16 |
| Gnea | Dayofswords: the older kernel is also stable | 08:17 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: Errors were encountered while processing: | 08:17 |
| ubuntucrashed | dbus | 08:17 |
| ubuntucrashed | bluez | 08:17 |
| ubuntucrashed | bluetooth | 08:17 |
| ubuntucrashed | bluez-utils | 08:17 |
| FloodBot1 | ubuntucrashed: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 08:17 |
| ubuntucrashed | hal | 08:17 |
| Dayofswords | so they use the older one since its more stable | 08:17 |
| Dayofswords | and mature | 08:17 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: what did you use to install ubuntu? | 08:18 |
| Gnea | yeah, do you think they'd put a new piece of garbage out there for millions of computers to crash all the time? | 08:18 |
| leaf-sheep | Anybody here experienced with SVN? I wanted to learn how to use it enough to get a software working and more importantly, where's the good directory? | 08:18 |
| lstarnes | Dayofswords: they mainly use it because it is the version that was available at the time of that release | 08:18 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: you can try sudo apt-get install ubuuntu-desktop | 08:18 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: cd downloaded from the ubuntu website | 08:18 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: what if you do it now | 08:18 |
| DigitalKiwi | Gnea: well...microsoft does it | 08:19 |
| DigitalKiwi | and look at xorg >.> | 08:19 |
| Dayofswords | is that because of some internally issue with switch to a new kernal that the ubuntu verion wasnt built around? | 08:19 |
| ubuntucrashed | that would fix my issue but i want to use that as my last resort | 08:19 |
| Gnea | DigitalKiwi: lol | 08:19 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: did it work booting live? | 08:19 |
| lstarnes | Dayofswords: kernel, not kernal | 08:19 |
| lstarnes | Dayofswords: that is part of the reason | 08:19 |
| ubuntucrashed | if i boot ubuntu live cd, it will work.. | 08:19 |
| brian___ | Hello, i am having an issue determining the subdevices to use in JACK for my soundblaster live 5.1 card. Has anyone had luck figuring it out? | 08:19 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 08:20 |
| Gnea | Dayofswords: it's just basic policy. besides, there's a new release every 6 months, so the kernels actually upgrade faster than other distros. | 08:20 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: i get the same error messages as trying to apt-get install xorg | 08:20 |
| Raz1 | Ok I did the flashplugin-nonfree update in SPM, what now? | 08:20 |
| Madpilot | brian___, have you searched ubuntuforums? lots of sound troubleshooting there. | 08:20 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: sounds like you are missing somethings | 08:20 |
| lstarnes | ubuntucrashed: it's xserver-xorg | 08:20 |
| lstarnes | Raz1: restart firefox | 08:21 |
| ubuntucrashed | should i try installing that? | 08:21 |
| lstarnes | ubuntucrashed: yes. | 08:21 |
| roccity_ | lstarnes: thats right I had it backwards | 08:21 |
| ubuntucrashed | i got this: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 08:21 |
| roccity_ | oops | 08:21 |
| jmarsden | leaf-sheep: what are you trying to do with svn? | 08:22 |
| lstarnes | ubuntucrashed: please pastebin the full output of it | 08:22 |
| ubuntucrashed | errors were encountered while processing:and its a bunch of things | 08:22 |
| ubuntucrashed | its too much, im going to flood | 08:22 |
| leaf-sheep | jmarsden: to use ogmrip's svn instead of the repo. | 08:22 |
| lstarnes | ubuntucrashed: I said pasteBIN, not paste | 08:22 |
| Madpilot | ubottu, pastebin | ubuntucrashed | 08:22 |
| ubottu | ubuntucrashed: 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 | 08:22 |
| jmarsden | leaf-sheep: OK, do you know the URL for ogmrip's svn repository? | 08:22 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: sound like a reinstall | 08:22 |
| brian___ | Madpilot, yes i have been but nothing addresses my particular problem. I have sound with alsa, that is no problem, i just need to find the correct settings for JACK because the sb0101 chipset has 10 unnamed input and output devices that show in JACK, i have been trying for hours to set it up correctly. | 08:22 |
| roccity_ | I don't know | 08:22 |
| roccity_ | sorry | 08:23 |
| ubuntucrashed | i also get this: No apport report written because MaxReports is reached already | 08:23 |

| GlaxoSmith | How do change keyboard with Ubuntu? | 08:23 |
| ubuntucrashed | along with a bunch of other things.. i just dont wanna paste | 08:23 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: yeah it sounds like a bad install? | 08:23 |
| Reactor | Guys help me how to chmod any dir with all subdirs and files? | 08:23 |
| Madpilot | ubuntucrashed, more than five lines triggers FloodBot1, just fyi | 08:24 |
| leaf-sheep | jmarsden: Okay, I see the folder. ~/ogmrip -- I suppose I would need to compile it? | 08:24 |
| grawity | GlaxoSmith: Settings -> Preferences -> Keyboard | 08:24 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: you said that you updated? | 08:24 |
| jmarsden | leaf-sheep: So... what do you need help with or have a quesion about, exactly? Sounds liek you are in business | 08:24 |
| lstarnes | Reactor: chmod -R | 08:24 |
| ManDay | jmarsden, i owe you big time :) | 08:24 |
| ManDay | thanks a lot | 08:24 |
| jmarsden | ManDay: No problem, glad it worked :) | 08:24 |
| leaf-sheep | jmarsden: I'm just going along with what I can... kinda figure it out one step at a time. :) | 08:24 |
| Madpilot | ubuntucrashed, but if even apt-get is hosed, I'm thinking it's reinstall time... | 08:24 |
| ubuntucrashed | roccity_: yes i ran apt-get update && apt-get install | 08:24 |
| Gnea | ubuntucrashed: if you paste in the channel like that again, you run the risk of being forcibly removed | 08:24 |
| ubuntucrashed | Gnea...........mhmm | 08:24 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: what about apt-get upgrade? | 08:24 |
| leaf-sheep | jmarsden: Oh also, what would be the good directory for svn-related? basically, all compiled sources? | 08:24 |
| GlaxoSmith | hey thanks | 08:24 |
| lstarnes | ubuntucrashed: which is why we use a pastebin | 08:24 |
| Reactor | Istarnes: thx :D | 08:24 |
| jmarsden | leaf-sheep: cd ogmrip and then read any files called INSTALL or README in there. You can try ./configure && make to build it, but check the doc files first :) | 08:25 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: might now work and if it doesn't reinstall | 08:25 |
| Dayofswords | oh hey another question, do they name the releases in alphabetical order? it was H (hardy heron), I (Intrpid ibex), J (jaunty jackalope) and now K (karamic koala), after going to be like L? lazy lamb =p | 08:25 |
| ubuntucrashed | sorry thats what i mean.. apt-get update and upgrade | 08:25 |
| roccity_ | ubuntucrashed: with a new burn | 08:25 |
| ubuntucrashed | meant* | 08:25 |
| jmarsden | leaf-sheep: all sources of all programs in the world? There is no such svn repository :) | 08:25 |
| === guest4 is now known as Putra_CaEm | ||
| Gnea | !release | Dayofswords | 08:25 |
| ubottu | Dayofswords: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 08:25 |
| Madpilot | Dayofswords, it's alphabetic from now on, wasn't at first | 08:25 |
| * Madpilot is waiting for Ungainly Ungulate, personally... | 08:26 | |
| leaf-sheep | jmarsden: No. I don't mean the repo. I mean the.. err, I suppose I need to word it correctly. What is the appropriate directory for compiling sources in? | 08:26 |
| lstarnes | leaf-sheep: anywhere | 08:26 |
| ubuntucrashed | i guess ima just have to do reinstall | 08:26 |
| jmarsden | leaf-sheep: whereever the sources are :) So ~/ogmrip in this case | 08:26 |
| Gnea | leaf-sheep: depends what you're compiling | 08:26 |
| * Horusofoz is hoping someone will respond to his question | 08:26 | |

| Madpilot | Horusofoz, re-ask your question every ten minutes or so, this place is busy right now | 08:27 |
| lstarnes | leaf-sheep: trunk if you want the most current version | 08:27 |
| jmarsden | leaf-sheep: trunk is the usual place to start | 08:27 |
| lstarnes | leaf-sheep: look under branches or tags for specific releases or branches | 08:27 |
| jmarsden | leaf-sheep: For the book on SVN, see http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn-book.html -- worth reading when you can. | 08:29 |
| Horusofoz | I have installed Ubuntu and Grub onto the portable drive and know both are on there, and have set the computers BIOS to booth from usb-bdd as second priority after cd/dvd, but the computer loads straight into XP from the third priority device (hard disk) and grub/ubuntu as a result. Can anyone tell me why it won't load? | 08:29 |
| leaf-sheep | jmarsden: Thank you. | 08:30 |
| Moon_Doggy | horusofoz what computer u have | 08:31 |
| jmarsden | Horusofoz: Maybe the portable hard drive has no active partitions, or a broken boot sector or something like that? Do you *know* that drive is bootable? Does it boot if attached to another computer, for example? | 08:31 |
| === GlaxoSmith is now known as mike | ||
| === mike is now known as mike45094 | ||
| leaf-sheep | jmarsden: Would I need to remove ogmrip from the package first before I continue and try the compile? | 08:31 |
| Horusofoz | jmarsden: I know the drive is bootable because when I disable my insternal drive it boots to grub\ubuntu | 08:31 |
| jmarsden | leaf-sheep: Not before you compile, but it might be wise to do that vefore you *install* the home-compiled one | 08:31 |
| Horusofoz | Moon_Doggy: Not sure. It was built by a technician. Not a mass produced model. It is a WD internal hard drive if that helps | 08:32 |
| jmarsden | Horusofoz: OK, so then it is down to the machine's BIOS settings, basically... sounds like the drive itself is fine. | 08:32 |
| brian___ | Hello, i am having an issue determining the subdevices to use in JACK for my soundblaster live 5.1 card. Has anyone had luck figuring it out? | 08:32 |
| Reactor | Istarnes: Why does "chmod -r 777 *" answer "No such file or directory" | 08:33 |
| Moon_Doggy | do you now the mobo | 08:33 |
| Moon_Doggy | know^^ | 08:33 |
| jmarsden | Reactor: There is no -r option to chmod, only -R ... and are you *sure* you really want to do that??? | 08:33 |
| roccity_ | Reactor: did you add the file for the permission? | 08:34 |
| roccity_ | Reactor: have to agree with jmarsden | 08:34 |

| Keiffer | hi! what is the best method of encrypting your linux? luks / dm-encrypt? how one should encrypt? only home, swap and temp, or full disk? | 08:35 |
| DigitalKiwi | why oh why can't all the basic utils agree about r and R | 08:35 |
| jmarsden | Reactor: No problem. | 08:35 |
| Moon_Doggy | horusofoz do you know mobo | 08:35 |
| Horusofoz | jmarsden: The BIOS is set to CD, USB-HDDm Hard Disk but it seems to be bypassing the external drive when the insternal is enabled. I just came across this which may be something relevant but not fully understanding it - http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/hacks/opensource/0596527209/i-0596527209-chp-1-sect-10.html | 08:35 |
| DigitalKiwi | some utils both are recerusive, others only one...it's annoying! | 08:35 |
| Reactor | roccity_: thx | 08:35 |
| jmarsden | Keiffer: It depends what you are trying to protect and from whom. There is no "best" that applies to everyone... | 08:35 |
| roccity_ | Reactor: it's cool :) | 08:35 |

| rgnr | how do i unlock usb flashdrive? | 08:38 |
| Moon_Doggy | when ihad installed slax to a flash drive i had to run a batch file to make it bootable so maybe your drive is not setup right, maybe? | 08:38 |
| Horusofoz | jmarsden: It seems to be describing what I need to do just I don't quite understand how to do it. Any idea where I might find a more recent version of the instructions and hopefully clearer? | 08:39 |
| roccity_ | heartbeats: that has to do with the xorg file | 08:39 |
| heartbeats | but not working | 08:39 |
| heartbeats | can you please tell me the procedure | 08:39 |
| roccity_ | it may have "800x600" as the biggest rez | 08:39 |
| heartbeats | no | 08:39 |
| RadarG | any ideas | 08:40 |
| bullgard4 | roccity_: I cd'ed to the directory /usr/share/doc/gnome-user-guide-de before I posted here. It does not include the "Accessibility Guide". | 08:40 |
| heartbeats | sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf | 08:40 |
| roccity_ | heartbeats: check nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 08:40 |
| lstarnes | heartbeats: gksudo, not sudo. it's a graphical application | 08:40 |
| roccity_ | bullgard4: not surethen | 08:40 |
| heartbeats | i done with gksudo | 08:41 |
| roccity_ | bullgard4: what does synaptic say? | 08:41 |

| Keiffer | anyone please, could you point me to a guide, or give me some advice on how to make a user for ubuntu that is very limited but suitable for everyday use? internet, chat etc. so far i put /bin/false to the bash | 08:43 |
| bullgard4 | roccity_: I searched Synaptic before I posted here. It does not include an "Accessibility Guide". | 08:43 |
| willca | rgnr| watch what it assigns it to e.g. /dev.sdb1 | 08:43 |
| willca | rgnr | sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt | 08:44 |
| heartbeats | can i sent the fiel xorg.conf | 08:45 |
| willca | rgrn | this is assuming there is a filesystem there, otherwise use gparted and make one | 08:45 |
| heartbeats | can i sent the file xorg.conf | 08:45 |
| lstarnes | heartbeats: you may, but you must submit it to http://paste.ubuntu.com then give us the link to the post | 08:45 |
| willca | heartbeats | what video card do u have | 08:45 |
| hrickards | Am I right in thinking that because it's past the Feature Freeze for karmic, without being granted a Feature Freeze exception, I can only upload (well have uploaded by MOTU) new versions of my package (lives) that contain bugfixes, not new features? For anyone who's familiar with the lives versioning 1.1.2 adds new features whereas 1.0.2 is just bugfixes. Can I only upload 1.0.2? Also see bug #427836 | 08:45 |

| damagednoob | the ssh key i have is tied to a specific domain and ip address. the machine i used to ssh has changed it's ip so everytime i attempt to ssh into it, it gives me a dns spoofing error | 08:46 |
| willca | heartbeats | sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings | 08:46 |
| damagednoob | how do i update the ssh key for that domain? | 08:46 |
| Raz1 | Hey, I'm having a bit of a problem with my keyboard. I just installed Ubuntu and I have the Swedish keyboard layout, but the ctrl+alt+# combination doesn't work, for example ctrl+alt+2 is At on my computer, without it I cant send emails, lol :P | 08:46 |
| willca | heartbeats | once installed just run nvidia-settings | 08:47 |
| heartbeats | here is the link of my xorg.config http://paste.ubuntu.com/270175/ | 08:47 |
| Artemis3 | hrickards, asked in #ubuntu-devel ? | 08:47 |
| heartbeats | i runned | 08:47 |
| jmarsden | damagednoob: "tied to a specific domain and IP address"... when it was created? Or just in your known_hosts file? | 08:47 |
| hrickards | Artemis3: I'll ask now. Wasn't sure which channel was best. | 08:47 |
| heartbeats | i can chage the resolution by nvidia settings but | 08:47 |
| damagednoob | isn't it both? | 08:47 |
| heartbeats | after my restart the resolution again goes to 800x600 | 08:48 |
| willca | heartbeats | do you select save to xorg.conf in that gui? | 08:48 |
| jmarsden | hrickards: actually the answer is yes, you'll only get bugfix-only released in now for Karmic without an FFe. and the channel for info on this is probably #ubuntu-motu | 08:48 |
| willca | heartbeats | or was it modify xorg something. sorry forgot | 08:49 |
| jmarsden | damagednoob: Nomrally it is only "tied" as you call it in your known_hosts file. How did you create the key? Have you tried removing the line from known_hosts and letting ssh re-add it? | 08:49 |
| Gnea | damagednoob: delete your local key so it will make a new one | 08:49 |
| RadarG | according to no-ip.com the last update was at 2009-09-12 23:43 for IP 192.168.194.2 | 08:50 |
| heartbeats | yap i just saved by running sudo nvidia-settings | 08:50 |
| heartbeats | and saved | 08:50 |
| damagednoob | jmarsden, well when i first ssh'ed into the server, i think it asked to create the key locally. | 08:50 |
| heartbeats | here is the link ok my xorg config file http://paste.ubuntu.com/270175/ | 08:50 |
| calwig | Does anyone know a good caricature package in linux? to make caricatures out of photographs? | 08:50 |
| damagednoob | jmarsden, Gnea: how do i know which line in the known_hosts file is the for that specific domain? | 08:51 |
| heartbeats | willica | 08:51 |
| heartbeats | are you there? | 08:51 |
| lstarnes | damagednoob: it will tell you the number somehwere | 08:51 |
| Gnea | damagednoob: well, take a look at the file, it should be obvious | 08:51 |
| damagednoob | lstarnes, Offending key in /home/<user>/.ssh/known_hosts:3 | 08:51 |
| jmarsden | damagednoob: In the error message you get, it should tell you what line of known_hosts the key is on, after a : -- but Gnea is also correct, you can just read the known_hosts file | 08:52 |
| damagednoob | line 3? | 08:52 |
| jmarsden | :3 measn line 3 of the file | 08:52 |
| lstarnes | damagednoob: so line 3 | 08:52 |
| Gnea | yes | 08:52 |
| heartbeats | willica any idea | 08:52 |
| damagednoob | perfect! | 08:52 |
| damagednoob | thanks for that :) | 08:53 |
| bullgard4 | jmarsden: Following your suggestion, I found a file /usr/share/gnome/help/gnome-access-guide/de/gnome-access-guide.xml. It apparently has the proper contents but I cannot read it comfortably. How to read this .xml file properly? | 08:53 |
| heartbeats | nobody can help me | 08:53 |
| wang_ | hi | 08:53 |
| lstarnes | heartbeats: that's not necessarily true. there are over 1000 people here | 08:53 |
| heartbeats | help me | 08:54 |
| jmarsden | bullgard4: Open it in anything that can read DocBook XML... | 08:54 |
| willca | heartbeats | that's weird. have you tried running thast w/out sudo | 08:54 |
| heartbeats | any one know it iam asking for continously 10 hurs | 08:54 |
| bullgard4 | jmarsden: What is a proper tool to read DocBook XML? | 08:54 |
| heartbeats | no | 08:54 |
| lstarnes | heartbeats: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 08:54 |
| ManDay | Is there a file in which I can edit my gnome menu (for example prevent "add/remove..." from showing up)? | 08:55 |
| lstarnes | ManDay: you could try system > preferences > main menu | 08:55 |
| willca | heartbeats | don't remember hwo exactly it works but its suppose to save a copy if it can't modify xorg 4 any reason | 08:55 |
| jmarsden | bullgard4: If you just want to read it , try reading /usr/share/gnome/help/gnome-access-guide/C/gmone-access-guide.pdf instead? | 08:55 |
| jmarsden | bullgard4: I use emacs to edit XML files... but that's not really what you are looking for ... | 08:55 |
| ManDay | lstarnes, there are not enough options in there | 08:56 |
| heartbeats | i just done lstarnes | 08:56 |
| ManDay | i can for instance NOT remove arbitrary items | 08:56 |
| heartbeats | i know it | 08:56 |
| heartbeats | but i made copy | 08:56 |
| heartbeats | but the resolution automatically | 08:56 |
| Madpilot | bullgard4, for reading raw docbook, gedit, screem or bluefish all work - or most of the other text editors out there | 08:57 |
| heartbeats | changes it to 800x600 | 08:57 |
| willca | heartbeats | is this a dual monitor setup? | 08:57 |
| heartbeats | no | 08:57 |
| heartbeats | not at all | 08:57 |
| vigo | bullgard4: Python and about a hundred other things can parse XML, gedit,emacs,bluefish, and others. | 08:57 |
| heartbeats | iam connected a 19" LCD only | 08:57 |
| willca | weird. you have metamodes and xinerama entries | 08:57 |
| heartbeats | what? | 08:58 |
| bullgard4 | jmarsden: /usr/share/gnome/help/gnome-access-guide/C/gmone-access-guide.pdf is an outdated version. (GNOME 2.14 is outdated.) | 08:58 |
| willca | heartbeats | hold on looking at ur pastebin | 08:58 |
| jmarsden | bullgard4: It is the one that comes with the version of Ubuntu you have... there may be a more updated one at the gnome web site? | 08:59 |
| jmarsden | bullgard4: http://library.gnome.org/users/gnome-access-guide/ | 08:59 |
| willca | heartbeats | ok comment out the following in xorg | 09:00 |
| jmarsden | bullgard4: The very latest would seem to be http://library.gnome.org/users/gnome-access-guide/nightly/gnome-access-guide.html | 09:00 |
| willca | lines that has metamodes and twinview and xinerama | 09:00 |
| willca | hard to chat on android | 09:02 |
| adde | Hello. I got a real nice graphics problem. I installed Ubunu 2 days ago and when I woke up today and tried to boot i just got a screen like this: http://biffnet.se/graphics_crash.JPG . I tried with the automated fix in the recovery boot-thingy but there was really no change. Any ideas? | 09:03 |
| bullgard4 | Madpilot: No. '~$ gedit /usr/share/gnome/help/gnome-access-guide/de/gnome-access-guide.xml' allows me to read the file's text but it is not properly formatted ans thus almost unusable. xml files need to be read by a proper formatting program. | 09:03 |
| ATK | NOEN | 09:03 |
| grawity | bullgard4: Try using 'firefox' instead. | 09:03 |
| Madpilot | bullgard4, you need gnome's help program | 09:03 |
| grawity | Yeah, 'yelp' or whatever | 09:03 |
| Madpilot | yelp, that's it. was having a mental block | 09:04 |
| ATK | NOEN | 09:04 |
| Madpilot | "yelp /usr/share/gnome/help/gnome-access-guide/de/gnome-access-guide.xm" should work | 09:04 |
| bullgard4 | Madpilot: Thank you very much for your help. '~$ yelp /usr/share/gnome/help/gnome-access-guide/de/gnome-access-guide.xml' allows me to read the file's text properly. | 09:06 |
| Madpilot | bullgard4, there has GOT to be an easier way to get to the 'gnome access guide' than command-line foolishness... not very accessible... | 09:07 |
| deejaydblock | how do i upgrade to the latest version of java? | 09:08 |
| bullgard4 | Madpilot: I agree. The reason is, I believe, that the translations are not yet complete. | 09:08 |
| Gnea | !java | deejaydblock | 09:09 |
| ubottu | deejaydblock: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 09:09 |
| Madpilot | bullgard4, that'd be it. Are you running an early release of Karmic? | 09:09 |
| bullgard4 | Madpilot: No. I am still using the up-to-date version of Jaunty. | 09:09 |

| frodon1 | Hi. I want to install Ubuntu on another partition, together with Windows. However, I want that the machine automatically starts Windows, i.e. without user interaction; and only when I want to start ubuntu, it should go with user interaction. How can I do this? (Because by default it is Ubuntu that starts automatically). Thank you. | 09:11 |
| ortsvorsteher | !details | mumtazah | 09:11 |
| ubottu | mumtazah: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 09:11 |
| bullgard4 | jmarsden: Yes, that's it! But unfortunately not in my native language. -- Thank you very much for your help. | 09:11 |
| frodon1 | BTw, I am using Ubuntu JJ | 09:11 |
| Raz1 | First, same as before, still no reply: How do I configure my keyboard to take ctrl+alr+# commands. because right now nothing happens when I press for example ctrl+alt+2 which should be At (the email sign). I have a swedish keyboard layout, in windows thats automatic, but here in Ubuntu nothing happens | 09:11 |
| jrivera | i would just like to verify that 1194 is the VPN port number if i want to block VPN throughiptables | 09:12 |
| Slart | frodon1: first off.. you can't install ubuntu on the same partition as windows (unless you use wubi, I think).. second.. you can configure grub to automatically choose any of the systems it can boot... or even hide it unless you press escape (I think that's even default on a new install) | 09:12 |
| deejaydblock | how do i enable the universe repository | 09:12 |
| frodon1 | not on the same, on another partition, that is not the point | 09:12 |
| adde | Hello. I got a real nice graphics problem. I installed Ubunu 2 days ago and when I woke up today and tried to boot i just got a screen like this: http://biffnet.se/graphics_crash.JPG . The Ubuntu-logo that appears while loading worked, it's when the login-screen are supposed to appear that it all goes to hell. I tried with the automated fix in the recovery boot-thingy but there was really no change. Any ideas? | 09:13 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: look in system > administration > software sources | 09:13 |
| frodon1 | how can I configure grub? during the installation? | 09:13 |
| ortsvorsteher | Raz1: did you set your keyboard in ubuntu under system -> settings -> keyboard to swedish ? | 09:13 |
| Slart | frodon1: not as far as I know. I would do it after the install is finished | 09:13 |
| bullgard4 | grawity: Thank you for commenting. | 09:13 |
| frodon1 | slart: thank you! | 09:14 |

| PerryArmstrong | i am able to detect my usb drives and my mp3 player but now I dont know why my mp3 is not being detected though it detects my usb | 09:14 |
| deejaydblock | i dont see it lstarnes | 09:14 |
| PerryArmstrong | i am able to detect my usb drives and my mp3 player but now I dont know why my mp3 is not being detected though it detects my usb can anyone help me regarding this | 09:14 |
| Raz1 | No I set it to swedish during installation | 09:15 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: were you able to open that application? | 09:15 |
| deejaydblock | yes | 09:15 |
| ortsvorsteher | Raz1: so try now to set it new or to set if it is set to swedish System -> Settings -> keyboard | 09:15 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: look for "Community-maintained Open Source softeare (universe)" under Ubuntu Software | 09:16 |
| mattwj2002 | Do the Dell netbooks work pretty well with Ubuntu? I see they come preloaded with Ubuntu | 09:16 |
| lstarnes | deejaydblock: check it then close | 09:16 |
| mattwj2002 | I am looking to buy a Dell Vostro A90 | 09:16 |
| Madpilot | deejaydblock, lstarnes - fastest way to enable Universe/Multiverse is thru Add/Remove Applications - switch the dropdown to "All Available Applications" and let it run | 09:16 |

| _theWarrior | in USB-persisten ubuntu, whenever i try to mount some windows partitions a popup comes and asks to authenticate, but when i click on that it says "You dont have the privilege to do that" how to fix that | 09:16 |
| ortsvorsteher | mattwj2002: i use a dell with 8.04 and it works well with an intel chipset | 09:16 |
| Raz1 | why? I mean it IS a swedish layout because it recognizes öäå which is Sedish | 09:16 |
| deejaydblock | it was already checked | 09:16 |
| Raz1 | Everything works fine except that specific combination | 09:16 |
| mattwj2002 | ortsvorsteher does all of the hardware work? | 09:17 |
| mattwj2002 | wireless, audio, etc? | 09:17 |
| Madpilot | deejaydblock, then you should have all of the Universe/Multiverse apps available | 09:17 |
| ortsvorsteher | mattwj2002: yes, without any problems. except for wifi i hat do install wicd | 09:17 |
| _theWarrior | i'm trying to do this from the file-browser, btw. but if I manually mount it using sudo it works fine and then I can access it without any issues...what could be the reason | 09:17 |
| mattwj2002 | oh okay | 09:18 |
| _theWarrior | prince_jammys: hi | 09:18 |
| prince_jammys | hello. | 09:18 |
| rgnr | well | 09:18 |
| JCDG | Hello | 09:19 |
| ortsvorsteher | Raz1: do you use an .Xmodemap file in your $HOME ? | 09:19 |
| leaf-sheep | For some reason, I'm not able to do what I intend to do -- Compiling ogmrip from SVN. I installed subversion, I "svn co <url>" and obtained a folder. I then read README and INSTALL. I installed required packages. And do "./configure" Nothing. No install.sh something. Also, I should tell you that there are "autogen.sh" though. Suggestion? Where did I went wrong? :< | 09:19 |
| Raz1 | No :S... and i dont know what that is, lol | 09:19 |
| ortsvorsteher | !lol | raz1# | 09:20 |
| ubottu | raz1#: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 09:20 |
| Raz1 | ... but I didnt use it on its own, it was in a sentense | 09:21 |
| JCDG | Hello friends I have some issue with mi laptop, after watching a video for a while my screen turns black, and a ctrl alt backspace doesn't even work.. | 09:21 |
| Slart | leaf-sheep: sounds like you did all the right things.. what does the INSTALL instructions say? to run ./configure, make and so on? | 09:21 |
| ortsvorsteher | Raz1: sorry, so i have no idea... | 09:21 |
| Slart | Raz1: it's still annoying.. if it's worth saying it's worth spelling out | 09:21 |
| Logo2 | Yesterday I came in with a problem: my panels didn't load, I had no icons on my desktop, and my GUI was pretty much unusable. I was able to track the problem down to my .local directory. Delete that directory, and everything works as it should. But it also means that I lose my nice customized applications menu. Does anyone have any idea what could have gone wrong in my .local directory that screwed my system up so? | 09:22 |
| prince_jammys | it's the lol clause of the sentence. | 09:22 |
| leaf-sheep | Slart: Yes. The instruction seems generic. It said to run ./configure; make; make install. That's about it. | 09:22 |
| leaf-sheep | Slart: Also, my first attempt too. :) | 09:22 |
| Raz1 | Its also annoying haveing to spel it out when 3 simple letters sums it up | 09:22 |
| Logo2 | If not I guess I'll go back to the default menu and customize it all over again. | 09:22 |
| Slart | leaf-sheep: hmm.. can you pastebin a "ls" from that folder? | 09:22 |

| vigo | JCDG: Is there some kind of Power Saver program running? | 09:29 |
| leaf-sheep | younder: Avoid /etc/cron.monthly -- Use "crontab -e" (NO SUDO) | 09:29 |
| JCDG | vigo the default of ubuntu.. | 09:29 |
| younder | leaf-sheep: OK | 09:29 |

| ubottu | younder: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm | 09:30 |
| mobal | hello | 09:31 |
| vigo | JCDG: Mine does that also, desktop. Karmic, I resolved it by setting the Power Saver settings a bit, like a tweak. But that is not the solution, it was a fast workaround. | 09:31 |
| Slart | leaf-sheep: hmm.. let me try compiling it on my box.. what was the svn command you ran? | 09:31 |
| JCDG | vigo my screen blinks a little before it goes black, my Power Saving program is configured in a way the pc never turns off the screen, not even with the battery | 09:31 |

| Keiffer | I have 2 different users and I want to make them both use transmission. i mean, when one logs in, the downloads resumes from the other one | 09:34 |
| Slart | calwig: you'll have to supply the "talent" and "funny" parts yourself though.. the software will only help you draw the stuff | 09:34 |
| silare | Does aynone know of any good laptop security software for Linux? Like, antitheft? | 09:34 |
| Myrtti | silare: encryption? | 09:34 |
| silare | No, as in something where say if someone unplugs my power cord (to steal it) or does certain things it'll start making LOUD audio noises and system beep like crazy and then proceed to flash the screen a lot or something. | 09:35 |
| Slart | NeoCicak: you could try looking at /var/log/Xorg.0.log .. there you'll see which graphics drivers you're using amongst other things.. also the /var/log/syslog file might tell you some general stuff | 09:35 |
| frith | silare, i security alarm? | 09:36 |
| NeoCicak | Slart: i've checked /var/log/Xorg.0.log... but there isnt any error message there :( | 09:36 |
| younder | silare: I generally as someone to look after it or put it in a safe place | 09:36 |
| silare | Well, that's my hope. | 09:36 |
| JCDG | vigo do you have any idea about what could it be???... | 09:36 |
| silare | I usually have it in a bag (if not in use) that's tacked around my leg really tightly. | 09:36 |
| vigo | silare: Put a script in, after 6 unsuccessful log in attempts lock it or erase it. I would like to make one go up Mission Impossible style. | 09:36 |
| silare | Except I'm going to college. I don't want to be asleep and then the next morning find my roommate stole it or something. | 09:36 |
| frith | silare, you could get one of those laptop locks so people can't take it without damaging it | 09:37 |
| === xps9000 is now known as xps | ||

| Myrtti | silare: buy a lock. | 09:37 |
| Slart | NeoCicak: usually that error means you're not running a graphics driver capable or doing accelerated 3d stuff.. what kind of graphics card are you using? | 09:37 |
| silare | Yeah, but I don't know if any are compatible with my Dell Inspiron 1520. o_O | 09:37 |
| Myrtti | of course they are | 09:37 |
| bartounet | hello | 09:37 |

| JCDG | vigo yeah it does it no matter if this is plugged or unplugged... | 09:38 |
| leaf-sheep | silare: I'm sure you can write a few commands/script that'll execute when power plug get disconnected (when the low dim brightness occurs) to set alarm off, to send you email, and etc. Use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laptop_theft#Laptop_tracking_software too. | 09:39 |
| mobal | hmm | 09:39 |
| prince_jammys | you could get a couple of Dobermans. | 09:39 |
| silare | Yeah... I guess so. But if an app existed then I'd rather have just jumped that way first. I can script it, it's just if an app exists I figured I'd just use it. | 09:39 |
| mobal | netbooks are "fully" supported by ubuntu? | 09:39 |
| leaf-sheep | silare: Loud whaaa whaaa whaaa noises coming out of the speakers if it's that loud enough. | 09:39 |
| silare | Haha, I wish. Except I'm in a two-man dorm. xP | 09:39 |

| Gnea | silare: are you that distrusting of your roomate? :) | 09:40 |
| Slart | NeoCicak: sometimes gnome gets the idea that it should bring it's own composite stuff.. that messes a lot of stuff up.. run gconf-editor from a terminal and go to apps, metacity, general and see if "compositing manager" is checked.. it shouldn't be | 09:41 |
| leaf-sheep | mobal: Meh. Search more about ubuntu netbook launcher | 09:41 |
| mobal | thanks omw | 09:41 |
| Slart | NeoCicak: you can also use this little script .. it might be helpful http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check | 09:41 |
| silare | Gnea: It's not necessarily just my roommate. It's a double, so it isn't just me in control of the door. | 09:41 |
| Gnea | silare: the question isn't who controls the door, but who controls themselves | 09:42 |
| silare | Gnea: Yes, but if the wrong person shows up... | 09:42 |
| leaf-sheep | Slart: How is it going? | 09:42 |
| Slart | silare: why not get a good wire lock and just lock the case and attach it to something big (bed, desk or similar) | 09:42 |
| Slart | leaf-sheep: it's downloading | 09:42 |
| Gnea | silare: then maybe you need a new room | 09:42 |
| mobal | and what about battery time? im just looking for smoe infos aout netbooks | 09:42 |

| leaf-sheep | silare: Really -- With a roommate, you will learn to build trust unless it's one of those people that people simply can't trust. | 09:43 |
| bartounet | can you help me to compile partimage on my jaunty 64 bits? | 09:43 |
| Slart | NeoCicak: compositing is what makes compiz able to throw windows around and such.. I think metacity has some own weird implementation of it that doesn't work with anything else on the system | 09:43 |
| leaf-sheep | But overall, most of the times, things are smooth. | 09:43 |
| junweiyu | jd | 09:43 |
| silare | leaf-sheep: Yeah - but until that trust is built, I intend to have some security in place. Once it's been established more so, I'll lower a bit. | 09:43 |
| Gnea | silare: if your roommate hangs around distrustful people, then yeah, I can see your point. if you hang around distrustful people, then don't hang around them or piss them off. | 09:43 |
| NeoCicak | Slart: so.... by checking it in... what does it mean? | 09:44 |
| silare | Gnea: I'm careful with MY group of friends... I don't know how he runs his. | 09:44 |
| silare | I don't know if he has a good OR a bad group. So I can't be sure. | 09:44 |
| Slart | NeoCicak: it means metacity enables its own compositing stuff | 09:44 |
| Gnea | silare: first year of college for you both or been through a CC? | 09:44 |
| NeoCicak | Slart: ic..... and if we uncheck it... we use compiz? | 09:44 |
| vigo | JCDG: Do you have a screensaver set? | 09:44 |
| silare | Gnea: Freshies. | 09:45 |
| Slart | NeoCicak: as far as I can tell, yes.. I haven't looked into the source code or anything. I'm basically just guessing.. but still | 09:45 |
| NeoCicak | Slart: ah ok..... anyway... it works now :) thanks a lot! | 09:45 |
| leaf-sheep | silare: I suppose you might want to install noip2 or dynsdns -- That way, when your laptop power up or reboot, it'll update the IP. Somebody steal it. Different room. Different IP. What majority? If it's in IT field, then you're likely to be ...screwed? | 09:45 |
| Gnea | silare: ah, okay. if you did have a lock, what would you lock it to? the plumbing? :) | 09:45 |
| silare | leaf-sheep: Alright. Thanks - I'll look into that. | 09:45 |
| JCDG | vigo, it says that's on but I've never see it work.. | 09:45 |
| silare | Gnea: A desk probably... It's attached to the bed. | 09:46 |
| Slart | leaf-sheep: hmm.. my svn download got killed before it finished.. odd | 09:46 |
| Gnea | silare: another thing to do is to write a cronjob that pings a server you control every so often | 09:46 |
| Slart | leaf-sheep: perhaps their server is acting up and you didn't get the whole thing? | 09:46 |
| vigo | JCDG: From the forums, that is what is doing it, or is most likely to be it, turn screen saver OFF. | 09:46 |
| Gnea | silare: also ask yourself this question - if there's a lock on it, then they wouldn't have to steal it, they could just bash it against the bed, right? | 09:47 |
| bartounet | can you help me to compile partimage on my jaunty 64 bits? | 09:47 |
| bartounet | http://pastebin.com/me5327a2 | 09:47 |
| silare | Gnea: Oh, I may do that... Just have it every so often ping a server and then if it goes missing I can just use IP lookups? | 09:47 |
| leaf-sheep | Slart: Meh. I got "Checked out revision 1792." so I'm sure I got the whole thing. | 09:47 |
| JCDG | OK, I'll do that....and well I'll begin to watch a movie an see what happens.. | 09:47 |
| JCDG | vigo OK, I'll do that....and well I'll begin to watch a movie an see what happens.. | 09:47 |
| Gnea | silare: yeah, and change your passwords often | 09:47 |
| silare | Gnea: Bash what against the bed? | 09:47 |
| vigo | JCDG: Gnome also added fading in, still looking at that, | 09:47 |
| Gnea | silare: the laptop. so it breaks and is unusable and costs you $$$. | 09:48 |
| JCDG | vigo ok vigo thxs :D | 09:48 |
| Gnea | silare: so yeah, back to the remote thing - the dyndns thing is a good idea too | 09:48 |
| Gnea | silare: maybe a heartbeat | 09:49 |
| Pirate_Hunter | how would I go about converting mkv to other formats i.e. ISO and DVD? | 09:49 |
| wan | ii | 09:49 |
| wan | i need help | 09:49 |
| Gnea | Pirate_Hunter: ffmpeg | 09:49 |
| leaf-sheep | silare: Gnea is explaining pretty much same thing I told you about noip2 or dynsdns. It's pretty straightforward once you understand it. Useful if your "stolen" laptop is connected and you could just ssh in. Find out IP. Recover your data asap when it's still connected. Etc. | 09:49 |

| Horusofoz | jmarsden: Had a look at those instructions but they seem to be for setting up a usb live install. I know you can do a regular install though. I think its something along the lines of telling grub what drive to read, type of drive and a 10 second delay to allow the kernel to be loaded over the USB - Does this ring any bells for you? | 10:03 |

| ManDay | how can i make networkmananger manage my wired connection? | 11:37 |
| ikonia | ManDay: what do you mean ? | 11:38 |
| ikonia | ManDay: you just configure it | 11:38 |
| trap | I need an excellent gui based Ide for Java that would comsume less memory. Please anyone have some idea for this ? | 11:38 |
| ikonia | trap: ask the guys in ##java some expereienced guys in there that will have some valid experience | 11:38 |
| ksbalaji | deejaydblock, amarok plays mp3s very well. maybe you have to install some plugins like lame..for unix | 11:39 |
| ManDay | ikonia, my problem is that my eth0 seems my primary interface, it comes up by default - so does my wireless nif, which is managed my NM. problem is that all my programs are trying to use eth0 which is not connected instead of ra0 | 11:39 |
| PerryArmstrong | ikonia; my system is not detecting my mp3. i dont know why...i remember previously it used to detect...any idea how i can solve this? | 11:39 |
| ikonia | ManDay: disable eth0 in network manager | 11:39 |
| Slart | trap: tried geany? | 11:39 |

| Slart | trap: I can't vouch for how good it is with java.. but I think it's pretty lean | 11:39 |
| ManDay | ikonia, first of all network manager says "Wire Network: device not managed" - second, i disabled it in /etc/network/interfaces, but i dont want to disable it | 11:40 |
| ManDay | i want both to be up | 11:40 |
| Dorn | anyone can help with fem xrandr syntaxes? =P | 11:40 |
| ManDay | but ra0 to be the primary NOT eth0 | 11:40 |
| Horusofoz | break: From what I can find you need to enable the Medibuntu repositories and install the AMR codec from there. | 11:40 |
| ikonia | ManDay: /etc/network/interfaces neets to be blank for eth0, it will create a conflict in your network manager setting, I used to have this all the time | 11:40 |
| ikonia | ManDay: you can't have both up unless they are on different networks | 11:40 |
| PerryArmstrong | ikonia; in the sense if you connect your usb...you'll see an icon...but on my system sometimes i see the icon or sometimes i dont see it.... | 11:41 |
| ManDay | ikonia, they are , of course | 11:41 |
| ikonia | ManDay: they are on different networks ? | 11:41 |
| ManDay | much appreciated, ill purge ./interfaces - that should do it | 11:41 |
| trap | Slart: So whats its basically for ? Actually I needed feature like when you type "." after a object name it would give the attributes in a drop down list | 11:41 |

| break | tell me steps if u nt busy :) if busy den we can cht later | 11:41 |
| Slart | trap: give it a try.. it's a general IDE but it seems to be able to handle java source code.. | 11:42 |

| twright | Araneidae, what I usually look at is sudo iwlist scanning to see if any other networks are using the same channel as yours | 11:51 |
| vigo | Araneidae: Are you being throttled? | 11:51 |
| Horusofoz | bazhang: Have you tracked the commands he's executed from my links? | 11:51 |

| stefg | King1: is that a flatscreen (lcd) or monitor (crt) ? | 12:10 |
| twright | afief, If you are attempting to upgrade to karmic (see !karmic) the you need to use upgrade-manager -D | 12:10 |

| IpSe_DiXiT | hi guys im kind of lost here, tried to change one of my hd's permissions with "sudo chown myusername:myusername /media/diskname" but nothing changed, so i run nautilus as root and im in the properties window, i searched it on the web but couldnt find how do i set permissions from there? what to put in "owner" "groups" and "others"? thanks | 12:12 |

| jrib | IpSe_DiXiT: what filesystem? | 12:12 |
| Araneidae | mvg1, say /join #channel-name | 12:12 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | jrib: ext3 | 12:12 |
| vigo | afief: I thought Hardy was at 8.04.3 now, that link I gave shows the steps in the proper way and method. | 12:12 |
| jeromel | How can I do to specify that I would rather use fglrx ? | 12:12 |
| twright | afief, in that case you need to go into software sources and there is an option allowing you to install non-lts upgrades | 12:12 |
| mgv1 | araneida: thank you | 12:13 |
| jrib | IpSe_DiXiT: what permission/ownership do you want to set exactly? Did your chown not work? | 12:13 |
| twright | jeromel, unless there is an option in hardware drivers it probably will not work | 12:13 |
| afief | Twigathy, vigo, thanks found it, working now | 12:13 |

| twright | jeromel, I am also unsure that fgrlx supports karmic yet | 12:14 |
| break | sign off huh? | 12:14 |
| stefg | King1: it could be that the x-server starts with a non-supported refresh rate, so the screen goes dark. Have you looked at /var/log/Xorg.0.log already? cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EDID might give you a clue | 12:14 |
| jrib | IpSe_DiXiT: do you want to make your regular user the owner or do you have more users that need to use it? | 12:14 |

| jrib | IpSe_DiXiT: ok, is there any data on the drive currently? Can you pastebin the result of: ls -ld /path/to/mounted/partition | 12:15 |

| jrib | Sidewinder1: you could have your reasons. In that case, do as Sidewinder1 suggested | 12:18 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | Sidewinder1: ive gave it but without the -R i guess heres the prob, isnt -R for folders? | 12:18 |
| twright | jeromel, I think that opensuse is fairly old now so still works with the older drivers | 12:18 |
| rek | hei | 12:18 |

| break_ | u r great :) buddy | 12:21 |
| Sidewinder1 | IpSe_DiXiT>Even after the correct command, for some strange reason in Hardy "properties" will still claim "permissions could not be detremined" even though they have chamges; check the individull prop. of a file or folder on the ext. | 12:21 |

| jeromel | how can I install it ? | 12:21 |
| break_ | wit full sound | 12:21 |
| coz_ | From the 7000 to the X1950, you can use the open source "radeon" driver. All cards newer than the X1950 must use the proprietary "fglrx" driver. | 12:21 |
| break_ | horuss still der??? thnks a lots buddy | 12:21 |
| jeromel | ( the package xserver-xorg-video-radeon is already installed) | 12:21 |

| jeromel | coz_, thanks. But in OPenSuse I used fglrx... it's very strange... | 12:22 |

| jeromel | coz_, yes | 12:23 |
| coz_ | jeromel, ok go to the #compiz channel and talk with adamk or soreau both of whom I trust completely with ati situations | 12:23 |
| jeromel | and CounterStrike, HalfLife2 with Wine | 12:23 |
| twright | jeromel, ah yes - you will probably need to use the radio driver then | 12:23 |
| G0gge | Before retsrating I was doing this in Ubuntu http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-kde-kubuntu-on-ubuntu/ | 12:23 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | Sidewinder1: on "owner" and "group" there's my name and it says "create and delete files" on "others" it says "create and delete files" but it still wont let me, if i right click on the hd "create folder" is not clickable... uff. HELP! :D | 12:23 |
| jeromel | ok | 12:23 |
| Araneidae | G0gge, that looks painful. Hope your backups are up to date | 12:24 |
| Araneidae | Guess you need to run `fsck /dev/sda6` now | 12:24 |
| Horusofoz | break_: No problem mate. I enjoyed it. Till next time take care and enjoy the sound :) Oh and if Ryann pops back in while you here maybe give him the links bazhang gave you. take care. | 12:24 |
| twright | jeromel, if you don't have any luck with lat then I suggest creating a bug on launchpad.net | 12:24 |
| coz_ | jeromel, either one of them should pick up on the issue although I am not sure if either of them are at their systems since it was a long night for soreau :) | 12:24 |
| emanux | twright: i have to manually remove each .svn directory | 12:24 |

| emanux | can't execute it using find or xargs command | 12:24 |
| emanux | tnx anyways | 12:25 |
| twright | emanux, how many are there then? | 12:25 |
| Araneidae | G0gge, Well, you have a shell: just type fsck /dev/sda6 and hit return | 12:25 |
| emanux | there are so many | 12:25 |
| jeromel | ok thanks a lot | 12:25 |
| Araneidae | And cross your fingers... | 12:25 |
| jrib | IpSe_DiXiT: click "reload" in nautilus | 12:25 |
| jeromel | gonna eat thanks see you later | 12:25 |

| emanux | becuase that's svn control each files and directory | 12:25 |
| twright | emanux, you could try find . -name .svn -type d -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf | 12:26 |
| Araneidae | G0gge, fsck will try and put things back together ... but it could well fail | 12:26 |

| G0gge | But was this suppose to happen= I mean all I did was follow the intrsuctions here http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-kde-kubuntu-on-ubuntu/ | 12:26 |

| Araneidae | G0gge, type `cat /etc/fstab` (without the ``) and tell me what the line with /dev/sda6 in it says | 12:28 |
| emanux | i wonder if windows can do that | 12:28 |
| jrib | G0gge: that's unrelated to you installing kubuntu-desktop. That's hardware failure or a result of some power failure or similar event. Try doing what it says | 12:28 |
| G0gge | Oooh, its unrelated... Dang | 12:29 |
| Araneidae | jrib, I'm just trying to figure out how important the /dev/sda6 volume is | 12:29 |

| domas | jakes: whatsup | 12:44 |
| G0gge | Ok, I need a second opinion... | 12:44 |
| twright | xrfang, I think brasero does those | 12:44 |

| domas | jakes: 'a bit' | 12:44 |
| jeromel | re | 12:44 |
| jakes | well, i have an idea i want to work on but not sure where to start | 12:44 |
| domas | by stating your idea? | 12:44 |
| G0gge | Araneidae gave me some advice but I'm not in favore of his suggestion :S | 12:44 |
| twright | jakes, fire away, some of us might know a bit | 12:45 |
| xrfang | twiright, I will try it ... but I wonder if it will allow me to put mp3 on it and make it playable on normal dvd machine... thanks | 12:45 |
| jakes | well, basically i want to create a small program that recalls information from data | 12:45 |
| jakes | have you ever heard of wolframealpha? | 12:46 |
| twright | xrfang, It usually works or you could try devede | 12:46 |
| neekers | wolfram alpha was underwhelming at best... | 12:46 |
| xrfang | ok thanks, | 12:46 |
| neux | I have this error when i try to extract a theme: | 12:47 |

| jeromel | Araneidae, re. How can I specify to use radeon drivers ? because the package is installed but I think that it is not used | 12:47 |
| G0gge | I was doing this http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-kde-kubuntu-on-ubuntu/ and during the part where I have to restart I think I shut it off prematurely, and at boot menu I chose ubuntu (I also have Vista, which is what Im on now) and after it apprently loads I get this http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b36/gecko6000/13092009271.jpg | 12:47 |
| twright | neux, in that chase put it in .themes | 12:47 |
| neekers | neux: put sudo in front of your command | 12:47 |
| Araneidae | jeromel, I think you can edit your xorg.conf | 12:47 |
| jakes | all i want to do is basically have an input box where you ask say "What is the chance of me dying today?" | 12:47 |
| neux | k | 12:47 |
| jakes | and it will call upon some statistics | 12:47 |
| jakes | and output a number | 12:48 |
| jeromel | Araneidae, I do not find it | 12:48 |
| twright | jakes, well that might be possible | 12:48 |
| neekers | jakes: where is the data coming from? | 12:48 |
| Araneidae | G0gge, looking at your screenshot more closely, it's worth trying the manual fsck anyway | 12:48 |
| jakes | well, i was figuring we could get it from like excel spreadsheets | 12:48 |
| jakes | i'm not sure how a program would read data | 12:48 |
| G0gge | 'fsck /dev/sda6' ? | 12:49 |
| twright | jakes, at the very simplest divide 80 (or whatever is average) by 354 | 12:49 |
| G0gge | @Aranaeidae | 12:49 |
| Araneidae | G0gge, that's the line :) | 12:49 |
| G0gge | Aranaedae, Ok, Ill go try it. Thanks | 12:49 |
| Araneidae | Without the quotes of course, at the root prompt | 12:49 |
| twright | jakes, if you want to read from spreadsheets you need to use csv but still you will need a fair bit of data | 12:50 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 12:50 |
| Araneidae | jeromel, very good question. I've just looked at the xorg.conf I used when I had the radeon driver running: http://pastebin.com/d31c9c688 and it doesn't mention the radeon driver at all | 12:50 |
| jakes | what's csv? | 12:50 |
| Araneidae | So... anybody here know how to switch graphics drivers?! | 12:51 |

| neekers | jakes: 1) put all your data into mySQL database, every hosting provider uses mySQL 2) write a PHP script that sends a SQL query to the database running the AVG() function (average) on the data you are trying to get | 12:52 |
| Araneidae | jrib, ah, no, not necessarily | 12:52 |
| muelli | Araneidae: switching graphics driver is simple: Find the Device section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the Driver directive. | 12:52 |
| neekers | jakes: thats an easy way | 12:52 |
| Araneidae | muelli, *if* there is a Driver directive! | 12:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Araneidae: you add the driver you want to use in the "Configured Video Device" bit | 12:52 |
| jrib | Araneidae: hrmm? | 12:52 |
| jakes | Hey good idea guys | 12:52 |
| muelli | Araneidae: there should be one. If not, create one. | 12:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Araneidae: if the line doesnt exist. add it | 12:53 |
| jakes | i'll do my research on that | 12:53 |
| roodyk | hello . How to make shell user with process Limit? in ubuntu server. help pliz. I need make user with 2 bg process | 12:53 |
| Araneidae | Here's an xorg.conf that works and has no driver line: http://pastebin.com/d31c9c688 | 12:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Araneidae: it'll be Driver "ati" or whichever driver suits your card, notice the capital D | 12:53 |
| twright | muelli, Araneidae xorg.conf is now not even included | 12:53 |
| banger0250 | Araneidae;what version of ubuntu u running | 12:53 |
| jeromel | I do not have xorg.conf file =S | 12:53 |
| jrib | Araneidae: that's fine. Create one... | 12:53 |
| jeromel | I have Xwrapper.conf | 12:53 |
| ActionParsnip | jeromel: you must have one to get an x server afaik | 12:54 |
| Araneidae | I've also had problems when switching from one graphics card to another: if I've forgotten to disable the old card, I'm in real trouble | 12:54 |
| Araneidae | ActionParsnip, it seems that more recent graphics drivers use xorg.conf less and less | 12:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Araneidae: you can still use it though | 12:54 |
| Araneidae | I only needed that xorg.conf to get my two heads working properly | 12:54 |
| twright | ActionParsnip, no you do not thanks to newer xorgs | 12:54 |
| jeromel | ActionParsnip, ok but it is not on /etc/X11 | 12:55 |
| Araneidae | But, for example, if the NVDIA driver module is loaded and you have an ATI card installed, then things go *horribly* wrong | 12:55 |
| jeromel | maybe it is implicit and I need to create one to modify it ? | 12:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Twigathy: i always use one, I have one thats always worked so if I do a clean install I just copy the file from my backup :) | 12:55 |
| twright | at the moment if you can't do it via the gui tools it is a bug | 12:55 |
| Araneidae | It's a bit difficult to use the gui tools when the screen won't come up ! | 12:55 |
| twright | Araneidae, then use recovery mode | 12:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Araneidae: boot to recovery mode and select fix graphics | 12:56 |
| Araneidae | Ok, haven't tried that | 12:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Araneidae: or boot to recovery root console and uninstall the bad driver | 12:56 |

| Owner | Anybody on the PXE boot? ALT_CD works just dandy, but casper's giving me a headache... | 13:25 |
| prince_jammys | genobreaker: check to see if a new directory is now where you ran the command. | 13:25 |
| grawity | genobreaker: If tar worked, then it won't say anything, just do its job. | 13:25 |
| Owner | ropieur: what exactly happens when you start up ? | 13:26 |

| prince_jammys | !fixres | Naxzul : check this | 13:28 |

| ActionParsnip | Naxzul: what is the output of: sudo lshw -C display | grep product | 13:28 |
| twright | Naxzul, hi, have you tried doing so via the display tool in gnome | 13:28 |
| Owner | Naxzul: info plz, what's your video, ubuntu version, drivers? | 13:28 |
| rich_dnb | mephis: is that badboy available in .deb format? | 13:28 |
| Owner | genobreaker: why don't you just rm that file and install vuze from the repos? | 13:29 |
| MEMPHIS | rich_dnb: i guess so | 13:29 |
| Naxzul | ubuntu version is 8.10 (downloaded the latest one, but it freezed at 40%), i have a gefore 8500 and i updated the drivers with synaptic | 13:29 |
| Sidewinder1 | Owner>+1 to that | 13:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Naxzul: what stops at 40%? | 13:30 |
| rich_dnb | yeah it is, cool bananas | 13:30 |
| Naxzul | hi Twigathy, yes i tried and the resolution 1280 didn't show up | 13:30 |
| === MadMax is now known as Guest33852 | ||
| MEMPHIS | rich_dnb: but mostly with .jar format | 13:30 |
| Naxzul | the installation did ActionParsnip | 13:30 |
| Bearfoot | Is it possible to have resumable sessions for GUI programs running on a server, like "screen" but for GUI? | 13:30 |
| rich_dnb | its strange that firefox doesnt work well with my java apps under linux | 13:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Naxzul: did you md5 check the ISO? | 13:30 |
| rich_dnb | in windowsXP it is fine, cisco SDM and etrade work | 13:30 |
| Owner | Naxzul: if you're using the nvidia drivers, then you should use their utility to set the resolution. i believe it's somewhere in the system-> properties.. | 13:30 |
| twright | naxzul, in that case do you have you tried the tool from nvidia to change the resolution | 13:31 |
| pranav | I have fluxbox, and when I type startx it runs, If I install sth like xfce or LXDE. How so I open them ? | 13:31 |
| === nekostar is now known as necro\ | ||
| Naxzul | yes i tried, and it had some error on xorg.conf | 13:31 |
| twright | Bearfoot, have you tried x forwarding | 13:31 |
| ropieur | Owner: ubuntu boot (splash screen with slide bar) freezes during the boot. In recovery mode it stops on this line "usbhid v2 6 USB HID core driver" | 13:31 |

| ActionParsnip | pranav: yuo change it i the login screen, or you set your default WM in a conf file | 13:31 |
| prince_jammys | pranav: do you use a graphical login manager? | 13:31 |
| Bearfoot | twrigt nope, any good keywords for a search? | 13:31 |
| rich_dnb | they are both the latest version, not sure of version number. | 13:31 |
| pranav | Means that I need a login manager, thanks | 13:32 |
| twright | Naxzul, in that case I recommend you tried to upgrade to 9.04 again as it will probably work then | 13:32 |
| Naxzul | i will redownload the iso tonight | 13:32 |
| Owner | ropieur: are you using grub? if so, edit the boot sequence and remove the "quiet" and "splash" from it. You will then get more information on what exactly is happening during the boot and you can work from there... | 13:32 |
| jakes | hey action i added that url to that list then tried to do sudo apt-get update but it failed | 13:32 |
| twright | Bearfoot, ssh, x forwarding, gnome | 13:32 |
| jakes | W: Failed to fetch http://<favorite-cran-mirror>/bin/linux/ubuntu/hardy/Release.gpg Could not resolve '<favorite-cran-mirror>' | 13:33 |
| Naxzul | however, im still stuck with the resolution thing:/ | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Naxzul: did you md5 check the ISO before burning the file? | 13:33 |
| Veovis1 | Hi, I have a 15" Penryn Macbook Pro, and I just installed 9.04. Everything worked out of the box, it was surprising. Except that sound only comes through the laptop speakers, not through anything plugged in to the 3.5mm jack | 13:33 |
| Owner | rich_dnb: better check then.. | 13:33 |
| Bearfoot | twight, thanks | 13:33 |
| twright | Naxzul, good luck - if it does not work then I recommend you submit a bug at launchpad.net | 13:33 |
| Naxzul | no ActionParsnip, i didn't. I kind of rushed to see what ubuntu looked like:) | 13:33 |
| ropieur | Owner: ok I will do. Come back with more info then ;) | 13:33 |
| Sidewinder1 | genobreaker>Even though this post is old, you may find it informative; I certainly did. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=144546&highlight=Azureus | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Naxzul: then you have no way of knowing what you downloaded is correct | 13:34 |
| theTroy | ActionParsnip: I have installed the 173 package, but when I go into nvidia x server settings it tells me that I am not using Nvidia X driver | 13:34 |
| Naxzul | nopes, thats why i installed an older version i had on cd.. | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Naxzul: i suggest you check the iso as well as check the burned cd as well, then remember to do it before installing to avoid issues | 13:34 |
| Owner | why do you guys not use the following format, when getting help here: "Name: This message is to that particular name." That way we don't have to scroll back and forth between stuff we're not currently helping with... | 13:34 |
| prince_jammys | pranav: gdm, kdm, and xdm are possibilities. xdm has the least frills. | 13:34 |
| rich_dnb | owner: how will that help mate? they are both the latest versions | 13:34 |
| Naxzul | im usually a windows user and just wanted to see out of the box | 13:34 |
| twright | Veovis1, in that case can you paste the results of the command lspci -vv into paste.ubuntu.com and link here | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | theTroy: you could try adding: Driver "nvidia" to the video card section in xorg.conf | 13:35 |

| Sidewinder1 | Guess that'd be too easy. :-) | 13:36 |
| rich_dnb | its amazing how slow java is to load | 13:36 |
| twright | genobreaker, I suggest you just install from the repos - click here and it should do it: apt:vuse | 13:36 |

| prince_jammys | calwig: judging from a repository search, prospects aren't promising. | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Charlie2: reinstal grub from ubuntu live cd | 14:00 |

| theTroy | ActionParsnip: any help with xorg conf please? I have no idea where to look for even. | 14:01 |
| Owner | ropieur: you'll need to read up on how to use grub. some info here: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/4622. Basically, you will need to specify your boot partition and then boot from it. Then you should end up with a bash terminal where you can uninstall hidpoint, or at least disable it from loading at boottime. | 14:01 |
| Sidewinder1 | rachid>That's a winbloze program. | 14:01 |

| jeffreyf1 | Hello. I have an ISO which I want to mount but I want to have the mounted iso defined as a CD ROM | 14:56 |
| ikonia | jeffreyf1: can't do that | 14:56 |

| grawity | malko: It's already installed. | 15:19 |
| n8tuser | malko-> its already installed | 15:19 |
| ikonia | vincent7: ok - so if you do "sudo apt-get install openssh-server" as grawity suggested that should install the sshd server to allow you to connect | 15:19 |
| grawity | sharma: The error message tells you what to do. | 15:19 |
| stefg | vincent7: If it's really an old jaunty beta version CD then you should run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 15:19 |

| kahrg | server_side depends on what you want to do, what are you looking for? | 15:31 |
| server_side | kahrg: linux as my main os , and windows on like a 30 gig out of my 500 incase i need to use that os | 15:32 |
| thiebaude | server_side, if you want to dual boot and keep windows, then installing windows first would be better | 15:32 |

| kahrg | server_side Best way to do that is to install windows first, then linux. For linux , i suggest setting up your "/" on a 10g partition and your "/home" on another. Incase you ever clobber your install | 15:33 |

| stefg | tombee: so gparted (the partitioner) obviously didn't do the shrinking right, which is often caused if the windows partition was in bad shape before. I guess you'll have to run tje windows install CD and perform a CHKDSK on that partition and possibly a fixboot (NOT fixmbr!) | 15:54 |

I now have uninstalled wine from that location and reinstalled a (newer) version to /usr/bin/wine but the link (to nothing) overrides my commands unless I use "/usr/local/bin/wine" instead of just "wine" | 16:15 |

| m3onh0x84_ | I can use fluxbox, lxde but I use gnome a long time | 16:27 |
| AlienDK | the answer is, because god hates you | 16:27 |
| ikonia | euphorian: firefox uses as much memory as it needs to do what you tell it | 16:27 |
| ikonia | AlienDK: stop that now | 16:27 |
| AlienDK | :( | 16:27 |
| AlienDK | I was just joking :( | 16:27 |

| kevb | Hi, I've had my Ubuntu desktop machine running as firewall/Internet gateway for a couple of weeks now, and since installing suggested updates, it no longer works properly. ICS doesn't work, unless in firestarter I go to the part of prefrences which deals with ICS, and hit accept, then it works for 10 minutes, and drops out again. Anybody help? | 16:28 |
| ikonia | Ironicus: if you can "see" something ubuntu is using your video card | 16:28 |
| ikonia | Ironicus: I suggest you contact the people who supply the game to get compatability/support for it | 16:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Ironicus: sudo lshw -C display will tell you what it is, you can then websearch how to set it up | 16:28 |
| euphorian | it needs 80MB active memory on the google page... | 16:28 |
| ikonia | Ironicus: as there are many versions of linux not everything is compatible with every distro | 16:29 |
| sunshinepants | how can I register my awesome nickname using pidgin? it doesn't seem to like commands | 16:29 |

| miguelonnnn | ok thx ikonia :) | 16:32 |
| LaveliDeara | ikonia: it's linked | 16:33 |
| ikonia | LaveliDeara: ok - so what's the problem ? | 16:33 |
| Ekushey | miguelonnnn: type uptime on shell | 16:33 |
| kevb | ikonia: with firestarter. | 16:33 |
| LaveliDeara | but I can't change permissions | 16:33 |
| euphorian | ActionParsnip, i started with standard ubuntu but wanted to optimize it so i tried XFCE and now im trying fluxbox | 16:33 |
| ikonia | LaveliDeara: you change permissions on the target, not the link | 16:33 |
| brummbaer | miguelonnnn: uptime | 16:33 |
| miguelonnnn | yeah Ekushey , thanks i did it | 16:33 |
| ikonia | kevb: I don't use firestarter, sorry | 16:33 |
| kahrg | euphorian openbox is another light weight DE | 16:33 |

| miguelonnnn | yeah it works great ;) | 16:33 |
| brummbaer | you're fast ekushey. ;) | 16:33 |
| ikonia | kevb: firestarter is just a frontend to iptables, do an iptables -L and see what rules you have | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip | euphorian: try a few, see which you like. LXDE is light too and has a menu button in the bottom left which flux doesnt have, flux has great support for shortcut combinations | 16:34 |

| KerberosHades | hi | 16:36 |
| euphorian | a more technical question, can i improve my video gaming performance changing the 'swappiness' | 16:36 |
| ikonia | kevb: not to worry then | 16:36 |
| miguelonnnn | mmm does anyone know what "start/stop/ignore" mean on the runlevel services config panel? I've read what runlevels are, but don't understand what those words have to do with runlevels. | 16:36 |
| euphorian | ive heard mixed opinions about it. some people use 10 and some swear by 100 | 16:36 |
| ikonia | miguelonnnn: start or stop a service at a runlevel, or ignore it | 16:36 |
| LaveliDeara | ikonia: it works, thank you | 16:36 |
| face | anybody know how to fix a cups issue? Cups cancels every job sent to it. | 16:36 |
| ikonia | LaveliDeara: super | 16:36 |
| KerberosHades | miguelonnnn: normaly you are at runlevel 2 | 16:37 |
| KerberosHades | miguelonnnn: if you want to stop a particular service, then stop it at level 2 | 16:37 |
| ActionParsnip | euphorian: swappiness dictates how ofter your swap partition is used, if you have acres of ram you can set the swappiness quite low so the system doesnt use the swap unless really needed. If you have not then a higher value can help | 16:37 |
| face | any one? | 16:37 |
| euphorian | ActionParsnip: I have only 512mb of ram | 16:37 |
| ikonia | face: saying anyone is pointless, if they didn't see the question, anyone doesn't tell them, if they don't know, anyone won't make them know | 16:38 |
| gostoff | how do i shut off the system from the command line? | 16:38 |
| ikonia | gostoff: shutdown -h now | 16:38 |
| kevb | ikonia: is that a not to worry like "I'm out of ideas" or "hold on, I have a solution"? | 16:38 |
| ikonia | gostoff: use sudo | 16:38 |
| miguelonnnn | ikonia,ahh i get it. If i change a level that runlevel will stop, start it, or ignore it HEHE thanks. I wonder, if i want to make sure one service is loaded, but don't know if it was before, should i set it as "start"? What would happen (restart it if was on, or just let it started? | 16:38 |
| ActionParsnip | euphorian: then you'll need to evaluate your game, I have 2Gb ram now and a swappiness of 5 so it doesnt get used as I rarely exceed this | 16:38 |
| gostoff | thanks! | 16:38 |

| kevb | ikonia: if I show you an iptables -L from when it doesn't work and one from when it does, would you be willing to take a look and see if you have any ideas? | 16:43 |
| ikonia | kevb: pointless if you can't match them to the rules your expecting, you may want to have a look for some firestarter specific help | 16:44 |
| kevb | ikonia: alright. | 16:45 |

| kevb | ikonia: how about this, it being possible neither iptables, no firestarter specific: is there anything that could have automatically updated in the last fortnight that would throw such a spanner in the works, and cause th eodd behaviour of a setting being perpetually forgotten every 5 minutes? | 16:46 |
| ActionParsnip | euphorian: didnt have to rename my profile either | 16:46 |
| davidscott6931 | hi everybody, i have just one fast question about a system process screen, how can i reattribute a password, or how can i know if i'm hack or not? | 16:46 |
| ikonia | kevb: I suspect it's firestarter specific as iptables once loaded into memory is well, there. So it must be firestarter stopping/starting | 16:46 |
| Sidewinder1 | alex23>Did you click refresh in Nautilus? Dumb question on my part, I know. | 16:46 |
| euphorian | I see, maybe I will try the .deb | 16:46 |

| joni | can someone help me with getting compiz effects going on "Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller"? I have done some looking on google and glxgears works fine lsmod | grep i915 gives : i915 32640 2 / drm 82452 3 i915 also, glxinfo | grep direct gives: direct rendering: Yes so it appears it should be able to do it, but it doesnt... anyone know what i can try? | 17:32 |
| kromar | matrixblue: the thing is that i installed a new drive for windows and moved the linux drive so i think there is some problem with the grub settings or so | 17:32 |

| kromar | matrixblue: http://pastebin.com/m38285414 thats the windows part | 17:37 |
| matrixblue | kromar, change hd0 to hd1 | 17:37 |
| s000501 | n8tuser: after I restarted 'networking' it works all fine; could it be that the networking services stall after some time? | 17:37 |
| kromar | matrixblu: and the windows setup is on sda1 | 17:38 |
| [Spooky] | dean: That a no go... :/ | 17:38 |
| n8tuser | s000501-> possibly, the script is not completing | 17:39 |
| matrixblue | kromar, grub numbers hard drives differently. Check and see if the linux entries use hd0 or hd1 | 17:39 |
| kromar | matrixblue: ok i thought sda is hd0 | 17:39 |
| Petfrogg | why does iwconfig not work? | 17:40 |
| matrixblue | kromar, it should be but I need you to check the linux entries to be sure. I assume linux is booting correctly | 17:40 |
| Petfrogg | i am trying to set up a new WLAN and the command does not seem to effect anything | 17:40 |
| kromar | matrixblue: how do i check if linux uses hd0 or 1? | 17:40 |
| Petfrogg | iwconfig ra0 ......... | 17:41 |
| Petfrogg | but no effect | 17:41 |
| matrixblue | kromar, look at the entries for linux in the same grub menu.lst file | 17:41 |
| s000501 | n8tuser: I'm going to downgrade from Ubuntu 9.04/amd64 to Ubuntu 8.10/x86 and see if it's going better... | 17:41 |

| jerasimos | oh, if such info is not appropo here, forgive me. | 17:42 |
| n8tuser | s000501-> i wish you luck, let us know, just for curiousities sake? | 17:42 |
| jerasimos | so, what's going on everyone? | 17:42 |
| dean | [Spooky], you using repo ffmpeg? | 17:42 |
| s000501 | n8tuser: okay! | 17:42 |

| bit324life | I don't know how to make a static internet connection. | 18:09 |
| bit324life | is netmask the same as the gateway? | 18:09 |
| matrixblue | Petfrogg, I think you're trying to edit an existing connection. Right click the Network manager icon and click edit connections | 18:10 |
| syn717 | i can't compile kde applications with kdevelop, configure says: checking for libXext... no, but it's installed, i've been googling it for hours without any luck :( | 18:10 |

| Petfrogg | there is no add | 18:11 |
| jose__ | hi everybody | 18:11 |
| bit324life | yes, I even looked at the ubuntu document to setting up a connection. | 18:11 |
| bit324life | they only say to put in the information | 18:11 |
| bit324life | they don't specify what each field needs. | 18:12 |
| matrixblue | Petfrogg, I'm not sure what's happening. I think we're using different versions of the network manager. I'm using 9.04 | 18:12 |
| jose__ | why is it possible to delete a file even if the file is read-only? | 18:12 |
| Petfrogg | matrixblue: i think that is the problem | 18:12 |
| bit324life | I even googled around and couldn't find anything that talks specificly to the fields they all say put in your network information or internet information | 18:12 |
| Petfrogg | but how does one do it in LTS 8.04? | 18:12 |
| matrixblue | bit324life, is this a connection to your ISP or your personal network? | 18:12 |
| bit324life | but they don't explain what that infromation is. | 18:12 |
| kitche | jose__: because your using root powers most likely | 18:12 |
| bit324life | yes, it's a direct connection to my isp | 18:12 |
| bit324life | not using a router. | 18:13 |
| jose__ | no, i dont | 18:13 |
| n8tuser | bit324life-> your interface is directly connected to your ISP ? are you sure? | 18:13 |
| matrixblue | bit324life, you need to contact your ISP to get the relevant information | 18:13 |

| MrSchmo | its not in synaptic manger yet | 18:14 |
| kitche | jose__: are you sure it's read only for everyone and not just world since there are three permissions | 18:15 |
| matrixblue | MrSchmo, which version of Ubuntu are you using? | 18:15 |
| bit324life | I had ubuntu 8.10 installed before and the internet connection manager would alwasy automaticly scan for a open internet line. | 18:15 |
| MrSchmo | 9.04 | 18:15 |
| jose__ | yes kitche, three permissions are read-only | 18:15 |
| bit324life | and usally I never had to setup or config internet connections cause it would do it automaticly. | 18:15 |

| bit324life | ok thanks I will see what I can do. | 18:16 |
| Gurpartap | Anyone with a workaround? | 18:16 |
| matrixblue | MrSchmo, or you can download it from www.firefox.com. firefox 3.5 has improved video support | 18:16 |
| MrSchmo | matrixblue, install it, does it goes as an upgrade or do i have to remove the old ver. of firefox? | 18:17 |
| jose__ | kitche: I can't modify but I can delete it, is it right? | 18:18 |
| matrixblue | MrSchmo, are you downloading it from the site? | 18:18 |
| matrixblue | jose__, what's the problem? | 18:18 |
| Here4TheGear | I am working on setting up my hostname for a server which is remote.. hostname at cl gives me mydomain now, but hostname -f gives me Unknown host... where it used to give me server.som.com The only thing that I have done was added the file /etc/hostname with the word mydomain | 18:18 |
| MrSchmo | matrixblue, going there now | 18:18 |
| matrixblue | MrSchmo, download the compressed file and extract and run firefox from in there | 18:19 |
| jose__ | matrixblue: I created a file and I make it read-only | 18:19 |
| Here4TheGear | ok, I was stupid to hit the enter key so soon, sorry.. but, my question regarding the above is, this just doesn't look right, are there other things that I need to change, or should I be putting the fully qualified domain name as the hostname? | 18:19 |
| kitche | jose__: yes | 18:19 |
| jose__ | but I still can delete it | 18:19 |
| jose__ | is it right? | 18:19 |
| kitche | jose__: read only jsut means you can't modify the filesystem must be read-only | 18:19 |
| Gurpartap | http://fixunix.com/debian/488774-usb-cd-boot-autoinstall-preseeding.html | 18:19 |
| matrixblue | jose__, the permissions on the folder allow you to delete it | 18:19 |
| Gurpartap | this explains the exact prob im having with my preseed | 18:19 |
| Gurpartap | n8tuser, ^ (if i'm not disturbing you :) | 18:20 |
| jose__ | aaahhh ok, thank you very much matrixblue and kitche, I see... | 18:20 |
| SnakDoc | can i use mysql and get same effect as this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=640760 or is there a even better way ? | 18:21 |

| i00nsu | hellp ppl of the world | 18:23 |
| i00nsu | i need a big help | 18:23 |
| matrixblue | kromar, you shouldn't be getting grub at all | 18:23 |
| matrixblue | !help | i00nsu | 18:24 |
| ubottu | i00nsu: 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. :-) | 18:24 |
| n8tuser | Gurpartap-> no its not a bother, i have to jog my memory to recall those steps.. hang a few | 18:24 |
| kromar | matrixblue: oh while booting linux it says hd0,4 so my windows is not on hd 0... | 18:24 |
| Tur80 | matrixblue: there is no such variables in my common-password | 18:24 |
| kromar | matrixblue: yes i should because i changed the bootdrive in bios | 18:25 |
| i00nsu | grub dont reconize my / encrypted partition and give me a kernel panic.. | 18:25 |
| i00nsu | howto fix that | 18:25 |
| Gurpartap | n8tuser, thats kind :) | 18:25 |
| Gurpartap | thank you :) | 18:25 |
| matrixblue | Tur80, try adding it | 18:25 |
| n8tuser | Gurpartap-> which method are you using ? the initrd? file? or network? | 18:25 |
| i00nsu | i encrypt using cryptsetup luks aes-i586 | 18:25 |
| matrixblue | kromar, are you trying to boot to windows or linux? | 18:25 |
| Gurpartap | n8tuser, file | 18:26 |
| kromar | matrixblue: to windows | 18:26 |
| i00nsu | how i make grub reconize it ? | 18:26 |
| matrixblue | i00nsu, try using a live CD then install cryptsetup and copy your files over | 18:26 |
| kromar | matrixblue: but i want the grub menu so i can choose what to boot | 18:26 |
| n8tuser | Gurpartap-> let me see what my note says if any... | 18:26 |
| matrixblue | kromar, does linux boot correctly? | 18:26 |
| Gurpartap | n8tuser: append locale=en_US cdrom-detect/try-usb=true file=/cdrom/preseed/riet.seed initrd=/install/initrd.gz debian-installer/locale=en_US console-setup/layoutcode=us quiet -- | 18:27 |
| kromar | matrixblue: yes, gona try hd1 again for windows since linux seems to be on hd0,4 | 18:27 |
| Gurpartap | n8tuser, and the media is actually a USB Drive. created through USB Startup creator in ubuntu | 18:27 |
| matrixblue | kromar, alright let me know | 18:27 |
| Gurpartap | n8tuser, alternate disc was written to usb drive. | 18:28 |
| n8tuser | Gurpartap-> am not sure how that would work using the USB drive.. | 18:28 |
| Here4TheGear | I am using a vps which has my hostname to the server name, I did :: echo "mydomain" > /etc/hostname :: where mydomain is just the actual domain name itself without .com or anything, then rebooted. now hostname returns mydomain but hostname -f returns "hostname: Unknown host". Could this be a potential issue? should I have used mydomain.com? and what other files should I have changed? Thanks for your help in advance. I really need to | 18:28 |
| kromar | matrixblue: invalid boot.ini file | 18:28 |
| i00nsu | matrixblue: i am in a live cd .. the point is not to copy all over again, is grub problem becouse "he" try ext2,3,4 xfs,jfs,reiserfs to mount / ... but it should me ask a passwd | 18:28 |
| kromar | matrixblue: isnt it strange that when i do fdisk -l my windows drive is sda1 and linux sdc5 but when i boot linux it seems to load from hd0,4? o_O | 18:29 |
| matrixblue | i00nsu, I'm not really familiar with that particular encryption software. See if they make a rescue disk. Could be a corrupt encrypted drive | 18:29 |
| Gurpartap | n8tuser, i'll count this as a bug for now. | 18:30 |
| matrixblue | kromar, yeah it is kinda odd. I'm out of ideas with this one | 18:30 |
| Gurpartap | and skip to test the rest of my preseed | 18:30 |
| Gurpartap | brb after food :) | 18:31 |
| IdleOne | kromar: hd0,0 <- 0 is first partiton so 5=4th partition | 18:31 |

| syn717 | i can't compile kde applications, ./configure says: "checking for libXext... no", but it's installed, i've been googling it for hours without any luck :( can someone please help me? | 18:32 |
| IdleOne | kromar: 4 = 5th sorry | 18:32 |
| kromar | IdleOne: i know but windows is on disk one partition one and linux on disk 2 partition 5 | 18:33 |
| matrixblue | syn717, why do you want to compile? | 18:33 |
| IdleOne | kromar: don't know #grub like matrixblue suggested perhaps | 18:33 |
| mkarora | Can anybody help me installing Ubuntu via PXE netboot from WinXP serving as TFTP server? My DVD-RAM is damaged and no flash drives. I just Ubuntu CD. | 18:33 |
| tomvb2 | mkarora: I suggest just doing it and asking concrete questions as you go | 18:34 |
| IdleOne | syn717: use the Package manager, most likely what you want to install is already in the repos | 18:34 |
| kromar | matrixblue: could this be a problem with fstab, because i havent changed anything there and its the same as when i had win and linux on the same disk | 18:35 |
| tomvb2 | mkarora: what how-to are you following ? | 18:35 |
| mkarora | tomvb2, I did, but not able to start the setup to get files locally. It always works for mirrors. | 18:35 |
| matrixblue | kromar, fstab wouldn't have anything to do with this | 18:35 |
| === rudenstAm is now known as rudenstam | ||
| mkarora | I want to install it from the cd I've dumped on WinXP system | 18:36 |
| mau_restor | en ejercicio | 18:36 |
| kromar | matrixblue: so that could not be the reason why win would be sda1 in linux? | 18:36 |
| mkarora | I installed a Apache, but when I give the local address of WinXP system, it says bad mirror. | 18:36 |
| matrixblue | mkarora, why not just use live-USB? | 18:36 |
| === Hirnblaehung^oO^ is now known as Sedna | ||
| mkarora | matrixblue, don't have a USB drive. | 18:37 |
| syn717 | IdleOne: but locate says: /usr/lib/libXext.so | 18:37 |
| syn717 | /usr/lib/libXext.so.6 | 18:37 |
| syn717 | /usr/lib/libXext.so.6.4.0 files exists in my system | 18:37 |
| tomvb2 | so basically, we need to know what's wrong with your mirror | 18:37 |
| mkarora | Just have a working WinXP machine connected via LAN to my Laptop | 18:37 |
| matrixblue | kromar, fstab might cause that but I think they're unrelated | 18:37 |
| mkarora | tomvb2, ya, my local mirror is not working. | 18:37 |
| mkarora | I've copied the DVD dump to apache root directory in /debian | 18:38 |
| mkarora | sorry, /ubuntu* | 18:38 |
| matrixblue | kromar, grub gets you to the right place but windows can't find it's files is what I think is happening | 18:38 |
| tomvb2 | hmm, unfamiliar territory there - should you use http://your-ip as the mirror, or http://your-ip/ubuntu ? | 18:39 |
| tomvb2 | I bet dumping the DVD is not enough | 18:39 |
| mkarora | I used http://my-ip | 18:39 |
| tomvb2 | I'm not sure, but a package mirror has a different structure then your DVD | 18:39 |
| mkarora | and even tried http://ip/ubuntu | 18:39 |
| tomvb2 | can I visit your mirror to check ? | 18:40 |
| tomvb2 | I'd like to go looking for a /packages directory of some kind | 18:40 |
| kromar | matrixblue: or grub is not pointing to the correct drive/partition so it doesnt find the files | 18:40 |
| bambam_ | clear | 18:40 |
| mkarora | tomvb2, its simple dvd dump in the root. | 18:40 |
| mkarora | I need to portforward to bring it on WAN | 18:40 |

| mkarora | tomvb2, Okay! | 18:42 |
| matrixblue | kromar, could be. I'm lost on this one bro | 18:42 |
| icarus | IdleOne, nasa begs to differ | 18:42 |
| tomvb2 | mkarora: the /pool directory seems to have the packages | 18:42 |
| IdleOne | icarus: this lady's kids are not in nasa :) | 18:42 |
| matrixblue | kromar, hope you get sorted out. Try #grub seriously though. I gotta bounce | 18:42 |
| matrixblue | later | 18:43 |
| mkarora | tomvb2, I even tried that, I used /ubuntu/pool but it still said bad mirror | 18:43 |

| Korlis | ello all | 18:46 |
| tomvb2 | mkarora: I see, but that one does what you have done so far - install from a mirror. | 18:47 |
| Korlis | whats up | 18:47 |
| tomvb2 | you want to set up a mirror yourself, using the files from the DVD | 18:47 |
| mkarora | tomvb2, yes! | 18:47 |

| kromar | in linux it says that my windows partition is sda1 and linux sdc5 but when i boot linux it boots from hd0,4 so whats the problem there? | 18:48 |
| mkarora | tomvb2, yes because my college has bandwidth limits and I want to install the latest version of ubuntu on the all the sytems. | 18:48 |
| Korlis | Pirate_Hunter: you just need to upgrade yasm | 18:49 |
| mkarora | So, I"ll be using this method if it works somehow | 18:49 |
| kitche | kromar: nothing could be wrong | 18:49 |
| Matt8 | ok, so using the downloadable version is serisoly not worth it >< | 18:49 |
| Korlis | Pirate_Hunter: open up synaptic, find it then just right click on it and select upgrade, or you can use the flags to configure handbrake without it | 18:49 |
| === janne is now known as Skiessi | ||
| tomvb2 | mkarora: aha, ok, I see - so it would suffice to setup a mirror at your college, but not necessarily seeding it with the DVD files ? | 18:50 |

| SplasPood | erUSUL: Need to build some modules.. | 18:51 |
| tomvb2 | mkarora: why the DVD files ? because the DVD stores it's files in squashfs | 18:51 |

| strange | hey guys is there a bash command that i can use to delete "thumbs.db" in /mnt/e/MP3/ (and all folders inside that) ? | 19:10 |
| ManDay | ikonia, no it is not, at least not in my case. The uswsusp module states that the data could be read from disk in a few seconds, but then I get taken to a black screen to wait for 40 seconds. See here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7943232#post7943232 | 19:10 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Korlis: http://paste.ubuntu.com/270428/ hmm not sure why ive got Handbrakecli in /usr/local/bin/ so why am i getting the error | 19:10 |
| shrey | How can i use my PC's Internet in my mobile using Bluetooth..i have MotoROKR ? | 19:11 |
| ikonia | ManDay: interesting the most common factor is normally the disk wake up and finding the suspend file, but if you can see that almost straight away, that doesn't add up | 19:11 |
| Korlis | if you follow my above instructions that makes it much easier | 19:11 |
| Korlis | Pirate_Hunter: if you follow my above instructions that makes it much easier | 19:11 |
| G_A_C | strange: something like "find /mnt/e/MP3/ -name [Tt]humbs.db -exec rm -rf {} \;" | 19:11 |
| Korlis | Pirate_Hunter: i'll repost them | 19:11 |
| Korlis | Pirate_Hunter: http://handbrake.fr/?article=download download the linux cli version, when you extract it you'll just get a file called HandBrakeCLI, rename that to handbrake, make it executable and paste it to /usr/bin then all you have to do to run handbrake is type handbrake in the command line with your options | 19:12 |
| G_A_C | strange: I'd run it without the -exec rm part first though, to make sure it's returning what you want | 19:12 |
| strange | ok thank you | 19:12 |
| ManDay | ikonia, indeed. It most be some sofware related problem - but I'm not able to figure out what exactly. Do you have any hint for me how to figure out what happens during the second phase on the black screen= | 19:12 |
| ManDay | ? | 19:12 |
| HowardTheDuck | '/usr/share/applications/gimp.desktop' | 19:12 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Korlis: awww yeah the gui was coming next really wanted to finish compiling this since ive gotten this far | 19:12 |
| shrey | How can i use my PC's Internet in my mobile using Bluetooth..i have MotoROKR | 19:12 |
| ikonia | ManDay: I'm just pondering in my head, I'm not %100 with the suspend process | 19:12 |
| mostafa_ | is there anyone who knows parted magic to back up? | 19:13 |
| strange | it returns what i want | 19:13 |
| ManDay | ok thanks ikonia | 19:13 |
| ipatrol | Does anyone use gpg/seahorse? | 19:13 |
| ikonia | ManDay: does the resume time vary depending on what you had open/was doing at the time ? | 19:13 |
| mostafa_ | is there anyone who knows parted magic for back up? | 19:14 |
| ManDay | I may try - clever approach. For your info, though, at the time it takes 48 seconds I've absolutly nothing running but the bare essentials and X11 | 19:14 |
| Daps | I'm having a hard time sharing files over my network, one computer can't even find the others... 3 machines.. 2 ubuntu, 1 windows... windows sees and can access all... ubuntu's hmm :s not so much.. any help ? | 19:14 |
| Korlis | Pirate_Hunter: handbrake doesn';t need to be compiled to use it, its just a matter of placing the binary in the correct place | 19:15 |
| ManDay | Any suggestion what I could open to fill up the RAM on a system where I've got hardly any programs installed | ikonia ? | 19:15 |
| osotogari | Daps: install smbfs | 19:15 |
| ikonia | ManDay: ahhh, that paints an interesting picture | 19:15 |
| ipatrol | May I have an answer? | 19:15 |
| ikonia | ManDay: open a ton of xterms ? | 19:15 |
| ikonia | ManDay: (weak I know, I'm just curious) | 19:15 |
| Daps | osotogari i have samba installed is fs different ? | 19:15 |
| Korlis | Pirate_Hunter: you could even just place it in your home folder and use the ./handbrake command | 19:15 |
| G_A_C | ManDay: something like prime95? | 19:15 |
| G_A_C | or other distributed computing app? | 19:15 |
| ManDay | I think I'll have to open really a LOT of xterms to fill up 1 GB of memory | 19:15 |
| dawkirst | I'm running Ubuntu server 8.04 in a virtual machine (VirtualBox) and I'm trying to install lamp-server with sudo tasksel install lamp-server, the tasksel configuration remains at 0%. Any clues? | 19:15 |
| ikonia | ManDay: doesn't have to be 1GB - just more than you've currently got | 19:15 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Korlis: yeah aparently so thanks, I guess the tut i was using wanted it to run from the svn :s | 19:16 |
| ManDay | ikonia, would you be so kind and tell me a loop to execute in a terminal to get them all up? | 19:16 |
| ManDay | I would mess it up with my limited knowledge of batch | 19:16 |
| osotogari | Daps: I was having the same problem as you a few days ago, I installed smbfs on my ubuntu box and I was able to see my shares | 19:16 |
| ikonia | ManDay: while true do xterml; done; then ctrl + c to stop them | 19:16 |
| ikonia | ManDay: that should read xterm not xterml | 19:16 |
| Daps | osotogari, thanks I will give it a shot | 19:17 |
| Korlis | Pirate_Hunter: also, if you're comforatble with cli i reccomend that for handbrake, its faster than the gui, and more configurable | 19:17 |
| ManDay | ikonia, im afraid that ill not be able to press ^C when the xterms come up! | 19:17 |
| ikonia | ManDay: rats | 19:17 |
| ipatrol | Can someone help me with a problem with decryption of encrypted files? | 19:17 |
| osotogari | Daps: Let me know how you get on | 19:17 |
| ikonia | ManDay: get a big file and open it in a text editor, that will use up some ram | 19:17 |
| ManDay | ok | 19:17 |
| Daps | osotogari, ok i will, thanks | 19:17 |

| King1 | mlissner: ctrl+alt+f1 does nothing the screen now just remains blank,:-(, no keys have any effect | 19:53 |
| puff | ikonia: if you don't know the answer, you can just say so :-). | 19:53 |
| ikonia | puff: I don't know the answer - but that doesn't change that the firmware size doesn't have anything to do with ubuntu | 19:54 |
| sena-- | frag4now: yes but the name is something like qt4-dev-tools or qt4-designer | 19:54 |
| mlissner | King1: What happens if you press enter on the blank screen you get after you press that? | 19:54 |
| puff | ikonia: Don't be obtuse. | 19:54 |
| frag4now | sena--: ok, ty | 19:54 |
| ikonia | puff: I'm not, I'm stating that the size of the firmware on your ipod isn't an ubuntu issue | 19:54 |
| puff | ikonia: Yes, but *figuring it out* using ubuntu has to do with ubuntu. | 19:55 |
| mlissner | King1: I should also ask, what did you do to break the video output? | 19:55 |
| King1 | mlissner: nothing: it just flickers for a few seconds then goes blank again | 19:55 |
| fbianconi | frag4now: that usually a library that installs by resolving dependencies, are you trying to write a program? | 19:55 |

| Loder333 | I have ubuntu 9.04 and I tried to put my computer in hibernate mode. When i did, I either did not know how to bring it back, or it wasn't working. The screen was blank so I hard restarted my computer. When I try to boot back into linux, it says aaron-desktop login: | 20:02 |
| stefg | vid1: http://quicktoots.linuxaudio.org/toots/vst-plugins/ might give you some hints | 20:02 |
| Loder333 | and I'm not sure what to enter but if I do enter anything, it then says Password: ..so I tried entering my password, but it still does the same thing as if I hadn't entered anything | 20:02 |
| frag4now | sena--: ty | 20:02 |
| Loder333 | which is, it goes to a blank screen and stays that way | 20:02 |

| Loder333 | If I don't put in anything, it just goes on ahead and goes to the blank screen, which is the same thing it does if I do putin my password | 20:05 |
| sena-- | Loder333: after you log with your username and password you may try startx command to start your gui | 20:05 |
| puff | Loder333: Well you could always take ikonia's preferred approach and call Dell (or whoever manufactured your PC) and ask them for help. | 20:05 |
| Loder333 | okay let me try that | 20:05 |
| mlissner | King1: ssh stands for secure shell. It's a way to run commands on a computer that you can't log into for whatever reason. If you had installed openssh-server before now, we'd be able to log into your computer and fix it from another computer. | 20:05 |
| puff | Loder333: Or you could probably boot to single-user mode and reset your password. | 20:05 |
| Myrtti | puff: stop it | 20:05 |
| sena-- | Loder333: what do you mean with blank screen | 20:05 |
| puff | Myrtti: I wish ikonia would. | 20:05 |
| mlissner | King1: Sadly, that's not going to work though.... | 20:05 |
| puff | Loder333: Or try control-alt-shift-f1 to get to a virtual console and see if your login works there. | 20:06 |
| mlissner | Folks, is there a way to boot so that you get dropped into a command line shell? | 20:06 |
| ikonia | mlissner: single user mode | 20:06 |
| ikonia | mlissner: or "revovery mode" from the grub prompt | 20:06 |

| Loder333 | I can't do a startx command because I can't enter anything. The screen is just totally blank | 20:07 |

| puff | Loder333: It's possible that your X sessionis gummed up or something, but the rest ofthe system is okay. If so, then ctrl-alt-shift-f2 should switch you to a virtual console, a text interface. It will be blank at first, hence hit enter to get a login prompt. | 20:14 |
| puff | Loder333: If this doesn't work, then it's obviously something more serious and we've learned something. | 20:14 |

| evilbug | why isn't firefox 3.5 in the repos? | 20:22 |
| Mqueue | duffydack>> nothing | 20:22 |
| evilbug | unstable? | 20:23 |
| mac9416 | evilbug, sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 | 20:23 |
| duffydack | Mqueue nothing?? | 20:23 |
| puff | So it boots up, you see a screen sort of like the first screen capture here: http://blog.khax.net/2009/02/06/retheaming-ubuntu-part-1/ | 20:23 |
| Loder333 | Any other ideas, puff? | 20:23 |
| Mqueue | duffydack>> nothing | 20:23 |
| evilbug | mac9416: will it overwrite 3.0? | 20:23 |
| Mqueue | duffydack>> i even tried /dev/sdd1 | 20:23 |
| duffydack | Mqueue, ok just mount then | 20:23 |
| Loder333 | yes I get to that screen puff | 20:23 |
| mac9416 | evilbug, no, 3.0 will still be there. | 20:24 |
| Loder333 | I have the option of two different kernels | 20:24 |
| duffydack | Mqueue, whats the sdd1 line say | 20:24 |
| mac9416 | evilbug, and it also tries to keep all you settings and add-ons :-) | 20:24 |
| puff | Okay, so can we narrow it down a bit, can you go through "it goes through everything"? | 20:24 |
| Mqueue | duffydack>> in ? where ? | 20:24 |
| mac9416 | evilbug, make that *transfer all your add-ons/settings to 3.5 | 20:25 |
| puff | Loder333: It boots, you see hte bios screen, you see the grub screen, you take the default kernel, it displays the ubuntu logo with the progress bar, it displays the ubuntu graphical login csreen? | 20:25 |
| duffydack | Mqueue, just type mount. does it show anything at all | 20:25 |
| tobzel | how can i get the owner group of a file? | 20:25 |
| Loder333 | all except the last part, and I've never had a login screen | 20:25 |

| Mqueue | duffydack>> ohh yea 10 lines or so | 20:25 |
| ratapoil | I'm currently installing java6 with apt-get, and it's stuck at a blue screen with the license agreement. There's an <ok> at the bottom but clicking on it or pressing ENTER or Ctrl+O or Alt+O won't change a thing. What can I do? It's stuck there | 20:25 |
| Loder333 | after the progress bar, it goes to a black screen and goes through another bunch of commands or something. Then it asks for my login, and then my password | 20:26 |
| puff | So you get the logo/progress bar, and then suddenly it goes blank? | 20:26 |
| duffydack | Mqueue, and is /dev/sdd1 there? | 20:26 |
| evilbug | mac9416: alright, thank you. | 20:26 |
| Mqueue | duffydack>> nope | 20:26 |
| mac9416 | evilbug, np | 20:26 |
| duffydack | ratapoil, space | 20:26 |
| puff | Loder333: How "new" is this install? that is, do you have personal info, etc, on this box? | 20:26 |
| Loder333 | It does some commands first then prompts for login and password. But, even if I enter something (or if I do nothing at all), it goes to the next screen | 20:26 |
| duffydack | ratapoil, and <return> to accept | 20:26 |
| Loder333 | which is blank | 20:26 |
| Mqueue | duffydack>> has a couple of /dev/ps or /dev/pts or /dev/shm | 20:26 |
| Loder333 | It's brand new, not much on it but opera and a driver | 20:26 |
| puff | Loder333: 'cause it sounds like you may be best off just reinstalling. | 20:27 |
| duffydack | Mqueue, so your partition you are using now isnt listed? | 20:27 |
| mordof | i have a 500gb ntfs partition that is in "Places -> 500.1GB Media" and when i click on it, it mounts the drive.. but i was wondering how to go about mounting that drive when i boot up so i wouldn't have to worry about it | 20:27 |
| puff | Loder333: Much as it pains me to suggest the Standard Recommended Ms-Windows Techniqute. | 20:27 |
| tobzel | how can i get the owner group of a file? | 20:27 |
| Mqueue | duffydack>> nope | 20:27 |
| Loder333 | Is there an easy way to do that using the grub bootloader or anything? | 20:27 |

| duffydack | Mqueue, anything? | 20:28 |
| puff | Loder333: it doesn't sound like it's a hibernate issue, btw, hibernate usually kicks in way before that point IRRC. | 20:28 |
| puff | Though it's been a year or two since I used hibernate. | 20:28 |

| trap2 | Is there a plugin that can give me a drop down list of attributes/methods of that class when I write "." after the classname in geany ? plz.. | 20:28 |
| Loder333 | i tried suspend too but that just did the windows equivalent of sleep, but I couldn't restore it | 20:28 |
| Loder333 | so i had to restart then, too | 20:28 |
| puff | Loder333: Well, see, it sounds like it's a problem with X getting gummed up and falling back to text or something. | 20:28 |
| ouanissou | ki parle francai | 20:28 |
| ouanissou | ? | 20:29 |
| duffydack | Mqueue, well its not sdd1 then. Is this an external drive? | 20:29 |
| puff | Loder333: Which is why I suggested the virtual console thing. | 20:29 |
| xam | je parle francais mais j'y connais rien en linux, tu veux quoi? | 20:29 |
| puff | You got it to boot into single-user mode, right? | 20:29 |

| duffydack | Mqueue, df -h | 20:31 |
| ratapoil | OMG daffydack that's it. thanks | 20:31 |
| Loder333 | there are things like resume, clean, grub, netroot, root | 20:31 |
| duffydack | Mqueue, if no /dev/sdd1 is listed then I`m stumped | 20:31 |
| Loder333 | I chose root and entered the passwd command. It was the only thing that seemed remotely like what they mentioned | 20:31 |

| sena-- | puff: it may be better first to try what you are suggesting with the virtual console ctrl alt f1 | 20:32 |
| duffydack | Mqueue, you are using a partition thats not mounted | 20:32 |
| duffydack | Mqueue, ok | 20:32 |
| puff | sena--: He said he tried that but got no resonse. | 20:32 |
| Loder333 | did you say f1? | 20:32 |
| Loder333 | Because I think puff said f2 earlier | 20:32 |
| kj23 | hey fam | 20:32 |
| puff | Loder333: Try ctrl-alt-f1, ctrl-alt-f2 ... f6 | 20:32 |
| Loder333 | okay i'll try them all, brb | 20:33 |
| puff | Loder333: f1-f6 are text consoles, f7 is the X console. | 20:33 |

| ManDay | ikonia, can I query you with my email address? | 20:36 |
| Loder333 | after the password prompt it goes to this screen, and when it does, the harddrive kicks in and makes noise | 20:37 |
| ikonia | ManDay: sure sure | 20:37 |
| Loder333 | Just like it's loading up the os | 20:37 |
| Loder333 | but it stays blank | 20:37 |

| sena-- | well not so fast man | 20:37 |
| felixsulla | How do I test if a cron is working? | 20:37 |
| Loder333 | I gave it a while earlier just incase. Probly close to a half hour | 20:38 |
| sena-- | so you have your console prompt | 20:38 |
| sena-- | just text screen | 20:38 |

| Loder333 | right before the blank screen | 20:38 |
| Loder333 | It's just plain dos-looking or whatever | 20:38 |
| Loder333 | it says aaron-desktop login: .. and if i type nothing it goes ahead and goes blank | 20:39 |

| Loder333 | it was recommended by ubuntu | 20:49 |
| kj23 | heroid1: i think is su | 20:49 |
| kj23 | not sur thou | 20:49 |
| devnull | mrwes ... excuse my lack of understanding XAA is that a setting in Xorg or a driver thing ? | 20:49 |

| sena-- | Loder333: what graphics card do you use | 20:50 |
| dboii | i forgot my password and I | 20:50 |
| Mudstone | ii have a problem with sharing my internet ffrom my 3 day old ubuntu system and my xbox 360 wireless active internet and wired ethernet sharing | 20:50 |
| Loder333 | I have no idea what that means, lol | 20:50 |
| dboii | i | 20:50 |
| Loder333 | I use a gtx 295 co-op ftw edition | 20:50 |
| puff | But in general, I always try to reboot after making any major changes, to see if I messed something up. | 20:50 |
| adalal | dboii: your grub password? | 20:50 |
| mrwes | devnull, yah, xorg.conf file | 20:50 |
| dboii | i have been trying to reset it... and now my admin password | 20:50 |
| devnull | mrwes ... if you tell me where i would be chaning it i have no problem trying | 20:50 |
| puff | I remember when our local system admin made a change to the mail server box, forgot to reboot... two months later we had a prolonged power out, system rebooted, hung on restart. | 20:50 |
| sena-- | this sounds like the driver issue | 20:50 |
| puff | Took him *days* to figure out what the heck happened. | 20:50 |
| eighty4 | I've been trying to get pdo support for php5-cgi but I just can't manage. Anyone have any tips? Been following some tutorials and everything seems to work. But pdo just wont work. | 20:51 |
| Loder333 | It's an nvidia card | 20:51 |
| Mudstone | anyone? | 20:51 |
| sena-- | i have a computer with ati card an old one | 20:51 |
| Loder333 | Also, I tried to download a driver for it manually from nvidia's site, but it's a .run extension and I didn't know how to use it | 20:51 |
| adalal | dboii: what password are you talking about? the grub? or the administrative password on ur distro? | 20:51 |
| Loder333 | so I just used the one that ubuntu suggested | 20:51 |
| Gmoose | what the prob mud? | 20:51 |
| mrwes | devnull, under the Section Device add the following line; Option "AccelMethod" "exa" | 20:51 |
| dboii | administrative | 20:51 |
| mrwes | shoot | 20:51 |
| devnull | thank you | 20:51 |
| sena-- | after fresh install the gui never starts | 20:52 |
| Mudstone | Gmoose i'm that guy who can't figure out how to share my laptop internet connection with my xbox | 20:52 |
| mrwes | devnull, under the Section Device add the following line; Option "AccelMethod" "xaa" | 20:52 |
| Mudstone | i've read all the stuff online about it i just don't understand it | 20:52 |
| sena-- | its all blurred and you can not see anything | 20:52 |
| === Jimmy_Durante is now known as Schnozzola | ||
| adalal | dboii: just a second | 20:52 |
| mrwes | devnull, restart GNOME and see if that helps | 20:52 |
| Loder333 | My card is a $700 card, it's weird that it suggested just some generic nvidia driver | 20:52 |
| Gmoose | so - you don't have internet unless the laptop is up? Is that what your problem is? | 20:52 |
| === Schnozzola is now known as lukjad007 | ||
| dboii | adalal: ok | 20:52 |
| sena-- | so for this card i need a cpecially configure xorg.conf file to start the gui ok | 20:53 |
| Mudstone | no no my wireless works fine locally i just need to share the connection to my wired ethernet | 20:53 |
| adalal | dboii: do u still know the administrative password? or do you just want to change it | 20:53 |
| adalal | as in.. have u lost it? | 20:53 |
| Loder333 | Anyway i guess I'll just reinstall later. Thanks for trying to find me an easier solution, puff and sena | 20:53 |
| dboii | just want to change it because i can | 20:53 |
| Biovore | Loder333: There are only 3 different nvidia drivers for differnent generation cards.. Its a Unified Driver Archtecure. | 20:53 |
| sena-- | Loder333: after fresh install it always uses generic driver which is good even very good thing | 20:53 |
| dboii | not remember it | 20:53 |
| Gmoose | Mudstone, it seems that you want to somehow use the laptop to connect, instead of just using the internet from your router ? | 20:54 |
| mateo | hello | 20:54 |
| adalal | dboii: is the computer a single user computer? | 20:54 |
| dboii | yes | 20:54 |
| Mudstone | yes i'm trying to use my laptop as a wireless card essentially i used to do it with windows | 20:54 |
| sena-- | because if your hardware fails in windows you are fucked up beacuse of the installed drivers previously so with new hardware it doesnt boot at all | 20:54 |
| m0r0n | Has anyone got Songbird to work with an nVidia card? | 20:54 |
| adalal | dboii: this should help... http://www.debuntu.org/recover-root-password-single-user-mode-and-grub | 20:55 |
| mrwes | hrmm... | 20:55 |
| mateo | '< | 20:55 |
| evilbug | sudo reboot | 20:55 |
| Loder333 | Well while I'm here, can someone tell me how to use a .run file? Because the nvidia website gave me a .run driver and I don't know how to use it.. so when I reinstall ubuntu i'll know how to use it | 20:55 |
| mrwes | no trigger on that one aye? | 20:55 |
| sena-- | in linux it just rescans the hardware and if there is no driver it starts the new hw with generic | 20:55 |
| devnull | mrwes: brb ... thank you | 20:55 |
| dboii | thanks adalal | 20:55 |
| Loder333 | I looked it up, but the solution does not seem to be for my version of ubuntu | 20:55 |
| === root is now known as Guest36804 | ||
| Gmoose | Mudstone, I'm sorry - don't know how to do that... But, for a quick fix - you could stand up "squid" on the laptop, and just put the laptop's ip address down as the proxy address configuration in your Xbox. | 20:56 |
| King1 | mlissner: unfortunately even that didn't work. | 20:57 |
| Gmoose | Have you played with squid before? | 20:57 |
| devnull | mrwes: still not close to on par ... menus are taking seconds to render ... i added that line to my xorg in my device for my ati card | 20:57 |
| kj23 | Mudstone: Not sure if theres a way to bridge internet connection with your laptop on linux but that would work | 20:57 |
| dboii | adalal: how do i access grub? I've looked it up and it says i have to press esc when the computer is booting up... but when exactly? | 20:58 |
| df382 | is opera really a lot slower than firefox? | 20:58 |
| Mudstone | Gmoose thanks... i'm currently trying to do it through firestarter at the reccomendation of an online forum... just kinda having some difficulty with it... someone mentioned to me some form of proxy is that what you are apeaking of? | 20:58 |
| adalal | dboii: do you dual boot? | 20:58 |
| dboii | no | 20:58 |
| mrwes | devnull, ok, lets go back to EXA and add the following line below it: Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy" | 20:58 |
| devnull | okay | 20:58 |
| Gmoose | Well, I have seen bridging software. It is mostly used with Openbox installations when the host machine needs to see one of the virtual machines | 20:58 |
| sena-- | Loder333: it should be executabel file i presume just click twice on it and you get the install screen and options | 20:58 |
| Wistful | df382: If you never try it you'll never know | 20:58 |
| LordQuackstar | This has been stumping me for 3 days: I'm using grub4dos, and trying to boot ubuntu off of a usb hard drive. This computer dosen't support booting from usb, and i'm tired of using a bootable disk. However, grub4dos isn't booting the disk, its trying to install. Here's my current menu.lst | 20:58 |

| devnull | mrwes ... brb again | 20:59 |
| adalal | dboii: when u turn on the computer, right after the bios screen, there's a few seconds countdown on the screen before the computer starts up with the selected default kernel.. | 20:59 |
| Mudstone | moose you lost me man lol | 20:59 |
| Gmoose | <Mudstone> yeah - a squid server on the laptop would give you a proxy server connection to give your Xbox. | 20:59 |
| Mudstone | ok so just download squid? | 20:59 |
| adalal | dboii: u have to hit the esc button when ur at that screen.. you don't get long... but u'll know when u restart | 20:59 |
| lianimator | how do i enable Ctrl+Alt+backspace in Karmic?? | 21:00 |

| arvind_khadri | hi, how can i route the audio from an ssh'ed machine to my machine, that is from the machine i ssh | 21:00 |
| devnull | still nothing ... i am adding this to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf still ... that hasn't changed right ? | 21:00 |
| Mudstone | i clicked your name and then opened dialogue or something | 21:01 |
| devnull | and the ati driver with 8.10 worked fine ... why didn't they just use that one | 21:01 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: your best bet is to use pulseaudio, makes life easier | 21:01 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: if it's in the same network | 21:01 |
| arvind_khadri | adalal, yeah using it, they both are on pulseaudio | 21:01 |
| dboii | ooooo ok i know wen lol thanks! | 21:01 |
| devnull | this is almost not usable in this state | 21:01 |
| Mudstone | i type that in terminal? | 21:01 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: are they on the same network? | 21:01 |

| zopiac1 | my desktop can see my laptop in the remote desktop viewer, but my desktop doesn't show up in my laptop's desktop viewer | 21:02 |
| lianimator | !dontzap | 21:02 |
| ubottu | To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 21:02 |
| zopiac1 | anyone know the problem? | 21:02 |
| mrwes | devnull, yah...xorg.conf | 21:02 |
| devnull | mrwes: thank you | 21:02 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: from what i know, if u use x forwarding, it should automatically forward the sound | 21:03 |
| mrwes | devnull, after that, I'm tapped :) heh | 21:03 |
| guntbert | lianimator: that works only in jaunty, not as you were asking in the next version | 21:03 |

| arvind_khadri | adalal, am not using it, isnt it possible without it? | 21:03 |
| lianimator | guntbert: it doesn't work in karmic? | 21:03 |
| devnull | actually i don't see any reason for anyone to upgrade to 9.04 ... there isn't anything that special besides broken drivers | 21:03 |
| mrwes | devnull, I personally never use it :) | 21:03 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: should be... give me a minute | 21:03 |

| mrwes | devnull, is that an older card you have? From what I heard, ATI dropped support for many older cards | 21:07 |
| devnull | yes this is true | 21:07 |

| icarus | how do i learn my defalt gateway? | 21:29 |
| fccf | dawkirst: you could find out in synaptic - if not yet installed by going through the process up to the download part ... it will tell you what is about to be installed | 21:29 |
| conjurer | icarus: type route in a terminal | 21:29 |
| Scombr0 | HughCOCK, i changed it to Wirc, and, still won't work. | 21:29 |
| HughCOCK | Scombr0: your best bet is to try it manually with wpa_supplicant. Network manager is merely a shitty frontend to that | 21:30 |
| icarus | conjurer, hey thanks man | 21:30 |
| Scombr0 | Ok HughCOCK, any website where I can learn how to use wpa_supplicant? | 21:30 |

| willca | Scombr0 | sometimes you have to edit the settings in wicd-client -n and point it 2 the right interface | 21:32 |
| fabrizio | ciao | 21:32 |
| HughCOCK | its fairly simple to use however, all you're really doing is modifying the wpa_supplicant.conf file. | 21:32 |
| myk_robinson | Is there an app in Ubuntu to rip a few minutes of video from some commercial dvds then join them on one disk? | 21:32 |
| HughCOCK | however, make sure you apt-get remove network-manager, as it keeps a running daemon of wpa_supplicant that will interfere | 21:32 |
| fabrizio | hello | 21:33 |
| Scombr0 | HughCOCK, do I remove wicd too? | 21:33 |
| HughCOCK | yes, wpa_supplicant is the only way to go | 21:33 |

| HughCOCK | The occasion of the essay aligns Habermas with Adorno; yet the content of the lecture aligns him with precicely that rationalist tradition in Enlghtenment of which Adorno was enormously sceptical.

The project of modernity done by eighteenth-century philosophers 'consisted of their efforts to develop objective science, universa | 21:42 |

| Gurpartap | lbw: wget | 21:50 |
| vikasap | trism: I see | 21:50 |
| brummbaer | ibw, curl? | 21:50 |
| Gurpartap | curl! | 21:50 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: um, on the server, make sure it's visible... on the 'configure local sound server' option | 21:50 |
| jebblue | Ibw wget! | 21:50 |
| Ibw | alright, thanks brummbaer. I'll check that out | 21:50 |
| Ibw | jebblue, does wget have an option for sending the get to stdout? | 21:50 |
| vikasap | trism: So now I have a similar problem with a libelf, may be I need the -dev package | 21:51 |
| jebblue | Ibw takes a few seconds to install try it if not try curl | 21:51 |
| jebblue | Ibw type man wget into Google | 21:51 |
| Scombr0 | willca, here is the sudo iwlist wlan0 scan: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=28921 | 21:52 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: it should show up under sink | 21:52 |
| trism | Ibw: wget -O - will output to stdout | 21:52 |
| Ibw | jebblue, I have wget installed, i'll just man it in the console. Are you sure that curl can though? | 21:52 |
| Ibw | oh, fantastic | 21:52 |
| Ibw | thanks | 21:52 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: on the client computer | 21:52 |
| arvind_khadri | adalal, yes | 21:52 |
| jebblue | Ibw nope i usually get the output to a file | 21:53 |
| sena-- | Ibw: w3m is console web browser | 21:53 |
| Ibw | and then, what can I use to print the stdout to the console, just to see if it worked? | 21:53 |
| arvind_khadri | adalal, then, what next? | 21:53 |
| brummbaer | ibw, curl just prints the source of the page as stdout | 21:53 |
| jebblue | Ibw i mean 'nope' im not sure | 21:53 |
| Gurpartap | lbw: man wget / curl | 21:53 |
| trism | Ibw: just do a wget -O - http://www.google.com or something | 21:53 |
| DeSian | physic, | 21:54 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: it should show up on the client computer under sink | 21:54 |
| physic | yes | 21:54 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: if it doesn't, go on others, and enter the server details | 21:54 |
| trism | vikasap: yep probably need libelf-dev | 21:54 |
| mxldr | how do i get BitchX for ubuntu 9.04? | 21:54 |
| arvind_khadri | adalal, it is showing, i selected it | 21:54 |
| Scombr0 | willca, as I can see, i want to connect to Cell 01. | 21:54 |
| mxldr | !bitchx | 21:54 |
| ubottu | bitchx (also known as ircii-pana) was dropped from Debian and subsequently Ubuntu (see: http://dy.fi/afb). Consider using irssi or weechat instead. | 21:54 |
| DefineByte | anyone heard of any problems transfering large amounts of files in one go via ssh/sftp? I ask because after transferring over 25GB of files from one local machine to another I got disk errors when trying to read them. | 21:55 |
| grenbo | Do you think all alzheimers patients are scamming the system? | 21:55 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: hold on, | 21:55 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: if u select the server computer from yours, it will transfer your sound to the other computer | 21:55 |
| DeSian | phyrrus, what is you problem with mobile? | 21:55 |
| iceroot | mxldr: use irssi, bitchx is no longer supported (imo) | 21:55 |
| grenbo | irssi adium and gaim | 21:56 |
| guntbert | !ot | grenbo | 21:56 |
| ubottu | grenbo: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 21:56 |
| willca | Scombr0 | just go to www.ubuntuguide.org and try their steps if none of my suggestion works | 21:56 |
| mefiiik | any idea?:( | 21:56 |
| DefineByte | I should say also, the transfer rate was slow. It took over 2.5 hours. I doubt the time factor is significant though | 21:56 |
| mxldr | iceroot: bitchx is better than irssi | 21:56 |
| grenbo | now if i could just get people to listen to me | 21:57 |
| iceroot | mxldr: your opinion, but bitchs is no longer in developing | 21:57 |
| arvind_khadri | adalal, the sink must be where the sound is going to be dumped right? | 21:57 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: yes | 21:57 |
| grenbo | bitchx is very under developed | 21:57 |
| guntbert | grenbo: do you have an ubuntu support question? | 21:57 |
| arvind_khadri | adalal, then it must be set on the ssh-server right? | 21:57 |
| mxldr | grenbo: no, it's not | 21:57 |
| adalal | arvind_khadri: yes.. but u can also control the sound server from your local computer | 21:57 |
| grenbo | why cant i put clear glass on my browser? | 21:58 |
| brummbaer | mxldr, if you really want it, you can get the .deb from this site: http://linux.maruhn.com/sec/bitchx.html | 21:58 |
| brummbaer | or download the tar.gz from bitchx.com | 21:58 |

| physic | i have this probloum too | 22:02 |

| sena-- | lordcorm: you have to edit your /etc/fstab file | 22:02 |
| erUSUL | !fstab | lordcorm | 22:02 |
| ubottu | lordcorm: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 22:02 |
| lars2 | sudo dpkg -i file.deb | 22:02 |

| jMyles_ | What's the best way to determine if a package exists and what it's name is? I usually just google "ubuntu <program name>" but surely there's a better way | 22:03 |

| === prince_j1mmys is now known as prince_jammys | ||
| SudoKing | i boot up my computer and there's only a cursor after ubuntu loads? | 22:04 |
| jMyles_ | erUSUL: Yeah, I've found that the add/remove search function is not terribly useful unless you already know the exact name of the application as entered in the database, which isn't always the case. I'll try apt-cache | 22:04 |
| SudoKing | i'm in recovery kernel right now w/ irssi, and am completely lost :S | 22:04 |
| rouser | ubuntu forums are back up, fyi | 22:05 |
| Fizban140 | how do I get to repository from UNR netbook view? | 22:05 |
| Fizban140 | I like the netbook view but it just doesnt feel very functional | 22:05 |
| === one is now known as R-learner | ||
| libtech | Fizban140: administration > synaptic package manager | 22:06 |
| arvind_khadri | adalal, the settings arent permanent | 22:06 |
| Lunis | question: Why are there selections for "alert sounds" under sound schemes in volume control when they do nothing i can hear? | 22:06 |
| libtech | Fizban140: the netbook launcher is pretty much identical to the regular menu, it just has nice big icons | 22:06 |

| DefineByte | what's the better way (as far as data integrity) to transfer files, scp or sftp? | 22:07 |
| sena-- | SudoKing: you can try reboot boot normally if the gui does not display try ctrl alt f1 to enter console mode | 22:08 |
| sena-- | SudoKing: then login and run startx to start your gui | 22:08 |
| sena-- | SudoKing: startx should be run as root | 22:09 |
| Pirate_Hunter | how can I get wavegain in ubuntu just checked online and I keep getting softpeadia instead of the actual site for it? | 22:09 |
| SudoKing | how do i detach from irssi | 22:10 |
| SudoKing | opened this in the root shell lol | 22:10 |
| jebblue | DefineByte scp can do odd things with symbolic links so if you have those in your copy source you might want to use rsync and if this is a repeated operation like a backup use rsync anyways | 22:10 |

| arvind_khadri | adalal, how about x forwarding? | 22:17 |
| duffydack | ruhaan, I had no trouble | 22:17 |

| duffydack | ruhaan, I just removed the old one, and added repo and installed new one. still, it should get the deps regardless of where the main package is from | 22:18 |

| peteyp1 | quite... a long time | 22:57 |
| Fizban140 | I am using UNR | 22:57 |
| jebblue | ejn85 it could be the name of the windows host is a NetBIOS name only WINS would know, try to find the TC/IP host name, in Windows, at a command prompt type "hostname" that should be the TCP/IP host you can use | 22:57 |
| sena-- | peteyp1: aha | 22:57 |
| dabukalam | hi all i'm having problems getting a canon MP540 to work on ubuntu 64-bit. It works fine on 32-bit, and there are no 64-bit drivers, so i simply installed the package by forcing architecture, now it gives me the error "/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij failed" | 22:58 |
| sena-- | peteyp1: how did you format it | 22:58 |
| peteyp1 | but it is a 1.3+ terrabyte drive | 22:58 |
| Fizban140 | I am about to give up, I havent gone 15 minutes without some sort of computer crippling problem for the past 4 days | 22:58 |
| peteyp1 | with gparted | 22:58 |
| ejn85 | jebblue ok, i will try that. brb | 22:58 |
| peteyp1 | I deleted previous attempts to format in my icy box nas storage enclosure, created new tables and started writing ext3 | 22:58 |
| sena-- | so you selected the harddrive created partiton | 22:58 |
| peteyp1 | every time before my icy box crashed during the formatting process | 22:59 |
| peteyp1 | but I'm not exactly sure they have a support irc channel on here either :P | 22:59 |
| sena-- | then file system and then you pressed apply changes or smth like that | 22:59 |
| peteyp1 | yep | 22:59 |
| peteyp1 | just like that | 22:59 |
| Fizban140 | this OS is so ridiculous, I am not sure what to do | 22:59 |
| peteyp1 | but it's been whirring forever | 22:59 |
| Fizban140 | Do I have to reinstall the OS for the sixth time? | 22:59 |
| peteyp1 | without progress and I'm dreading cancelling it | 22:59 |
| Xcerca | Fizban140 , what are you trying to do ? | 23:00 |
| peteyp1 | the drives aren't kinda cracking or making any strenious working hard sounds | 23:00 |
| Fizban140 | I can't even see the drives or anything, no idea where these filesa re trying to install | 23:00 |
| peteyp1 | so not sure what to expect | 23:00 |

| peteyp1 | yes | 23:00 |
| Fizban140 | I am trying to get my browser working because it crashes after about 10 seconds after I installed restricted files becuase flash wouldn't work and linux doesn't have an install wizard so now I am trying to uninstall those files and then install updates to see if that works but my whatever drive it is installing is full | 23:01 |
| sena-- | well i think something must be wrong | 23:01 |
| peteyp1 | the model is a seagate barracuda 7200 rpm 11 1500 gbytes | 23:01 |
| Xcerca | in .sh scripts, if i need to use sudo is there a way to have my password in the script so that i don't have to type in in ? somthing like sudo "password" cp... ? | 23:01 |
| peteyp1 | hmmm | 23:01 |
| dabukalam | kj23: places > computer > click on the hard disk which represents the other partition > home > "user" > Desktop | 23:01 |
| sena-- | there are some "smart" drives sometimes that think they know when to asleep to | 23:01 |
| kj23 | thx | 23:01 |

| sena-- | ok then this time use different usb slot on you computer | 23:04 |
| peteyp1 | hmm ok | 23:04 |
| peteyp1 | how long SHOULD it take ? | 23:05 |
| sena-- | plus make sure no other usb devices are connected | 23:05 |

| peteyp1 | hopefully it'll be readable by snow leopard | 23:10 |

| Fizban140 | I am not on my netbook, I am here from my pc | 23:12 |
| sena-- | peteyp1: msdos would be ok if this is ntfs | 23:12 |
| funkyHat | sena--: msdos as a partition table type is what nearly everybody uses on the desktop | 23:12 |
| Fizban140 | what did you want to see from that command? | 23:12 |

| peteyp1 | fat32 defo doesn't go well with os x | 23:13 |
| peteyp1 | also I can't seem to create the partition table ? | 23:13 |
| jebblue | ejn85 try "rdesktop download:3389" | 23:13 |

| ejn85 | jebblue put that in terminal or host field in rdv? | 23:14 |
| sena-- | just a sec | 23:14 |
| funkyHat | peteyp1: creating partition table is done immediately, I think | 23:14 |
| peteyp1 | without console warnings? | 23:14 |
| peteyp1 | or notification | 23:14 |
| Fizban140 | I wasted my whole fucking weekend on this pos | 23:14 |
| felixsulla | If I want to get a cron going, and I dont want to run it as root, I have to create a cron.allow file in /etc/ ? | 23:14 |

| funkyHat | peteyp1: it should have warned you before you did it | 23:15 |
| sena-- | yes the partiton table is done automatically when you create your partition | 23:15 |
| jebblue | ejn85 and type it there | 23:15 |
| peteyp1 | oh ok | 23:15 |
| peteyp1 | anyhoo | 23:15 |

| altf2o | this may be more of a Samba specific question. For each individual user i create a /shared folder w/ permissions 0700 and setup a [user_share] entry in Samba. In my tests so far that user is the only one who can connect to it, modify, del, add, etc... This is the desired behavior, but my question is, is that a fairly "sane" way to do it? Is it reliable from a security standpoint? | 23:15 |

| sena-- | but not hors | 23:19 |
| peteyp1 | 30 mins ? | 23:19 |
| sena-- | *hours | 23:19 |
| sena-- | less | 23:20 |
| peteyp1 | hmm ok | 23:20 |
| jebblue | ejn85 ok you need to determine the IP address of download, if you can get back into its local desktop run in a command prompt, "ping download" and see what it thinks its address is | 23:20 |
| Daps | bucky, however the linux machines can't do the same.... one see the network, the other see the computers.. neither can access any files | 23:20 |
| peteyp1 | I cant hear much activity from the drive | 23:20 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, /etc/init.d/cron start | 23:20 |
| sena-- | should be ok | 23:20 |
| altf2o | Daps - so neither Linux computer can connect to the other? But Windows connects to both fine? | 23:20 |
| sena-- | wait for a while | 23:20 |
| phix | hey | 23:21 |
| peteyp1 | actually I cant hear anything.. near silent :). Yes.. Im impatient :P | 23:21 |
| felixsulla | joeb3: if it says [fail] does that mean I have it configured wrong in crontab -e? | 23:21 |
| Daps | altf2o, Yup... strange eh... | 23:21 |
| peteyp1 | ok I'll be back in 30 mins | 23:21 |
| phix | felixsulla: what does syslog tell you? | 23:21 |
| peteyp1 | guess you'll be gone by then sena | 23:21 |
| sena-- | ok i go to sleep | 23:21 |
| felixsulla | phix: How do I see the syslog? | 23:21 |
| peteyp1 | thankies for your help :) | 23:21 |
| Chris64 | is there a wine channel on this network? | 23:21 |

| regressless | Help please? I've been running Ubuntu 9.04 with the array.org thing on my eeepc with no problems. I put it in standby and unplugged my external dvd drive and when I got home and took it out of standby, the screen went black and the monitor started flickering off and on. Tried rebooting and twice it showed the desktop for several seconds and it started doing the same thing again. Now all I see is it trying to load (splash screen works) | 23:22 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, did your save with the -e give any errors? | 23:22 |
| peteyp1 | me too.. don't want to have to send the drive back | 23:22 |
| phix | felixsulla: tail /var/log/syslog | 23:22 |
| peteyp1 | although it's looking more that way! | 23:22 |
| felixsulla | joeb3: I saved out of crontab -e with no errors. | 23:22 |
| sena-- | if not you can try with console with fdisk | 23:22 |
| phix | felixsulla: actually you will need root to see it, so chuck a sudo infront of that | 23:22 |
| altf2o | Daps - very. If you run this command on one of those boxes: sudo pdbedit -L , does it list the user name you're trying to connect to the share with? Also does: smbclient -L host\ip , list the share at all from on Ubuntu box to the other? | 23:22 |
| peteyp1 | any guides on that | 23:22 |
| sena-- | and mkfs | 23:22 |
| peteyp1 | ? | 23:22 |
| sena-- | it is very easy to use | 23:23 |
| peteyp1 | google is your friend... | 23:23 |
| peteyp1 | I guess | 23:23 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, look in /var/log/syslog | 23:23 |
| felixsulla | Okay, i'm looking at syslog. | 23:23 |
| sena-- | just type fsiks and it shows you the options you can read some additional guids from interent | 23:23 |

| Daps | altf2o, pdbedit brings back some strange stuff... but no it shows me the machine I am on and then "nobody:65534:nobody" | 23:24 |
| Kimochi | It says incorrect username or password... I don't remember setting it! | 23:25 |
| bobertdos | Kimochi: When you say you "installed" it, what did you use? | 23:25 |
| === stlsaint is now known as stlsaint_ | ||
| Here4TheGear | Kimochi it might be root root if it is your first time logging in | 23:25 |
| ejn85 | jebblue i used ipconfig in cmd on download and it says the ip is *.103 why doesnt nslookup give me that info? it looks like entering the ip connects me but it only gives a black screen. | 23:25 |
| Daps | altf2o, the second one smbclient, says "Connection to host192.168.1.105 failed (Error NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME)" | 23:25 |
| regressless | Kimochi: username is the name you gave, if you didn't set the password, just hit enter | 23:25 |
| Kimochi | Root Root didn't work either. | 23:25 |
| Flannel | Kimochi: How did you install Ubuntu? | 23:25 |
| regressless | Help please? I've been running Ubuntu 9.04 with the array.org thing on my eeepc with no problems. I put it in standby and unplugged my external dvd drive and when I got home and took it out of standby, the screen went black and the monitor started flickering off and on. Tried rebooting and twice it showed the desktop for several seconds and it started doing the same thing again. Now all I see is it trying to load (splash screen works) | 23:25 |
| Here4TheGear | I said root root not Root Root | 23:25 |
| Kimochi | When did I give a name? | 23:25 |
| altf2o | Ok so for me logging into my Ubuntu server when i run that pdbedit command it lists me similar to: altf2o:1001:,,, , do you see anything similar? | 23:26 |
| jebblue | ejn85 the connection stuff is a networking issue you would need to address with your admin | 23:26 |
| regressless | Kimochi: username has no caps | 23:26 |
| jebblue | ejn85 try moving the mouse and see if the screen activates | 23:26 |
| Flannel | Kimochi: most installation methods ask you during the install. How did you install? | 23:26 |
| Kimochi | I think I emulated it on DaemonTools? | 23:26 |
| rwlove_ | Hello... My system crashed on video playback and now the nvidia driver only shows colored lines on the screen when gdm starts... any pointers on debugging would be appreciated. | 23:27 |
| altf2o | Daps - is that host currently up and online? *.*.1.105 responds to ping and allows you to login to it? And running: smbclient -L 192.168.1.105 , shows Samba is running and your shares? | 23:27 |
| felixsulla | joeb3: Does a cron error message show in syslog ? | 23:27 |
| Kimochi | Does the username have a space? | 23:27 |
| Kimochi | Can it have spaces?* | 23:27 |
| Flannel | Kimochi: You think? If you're doing this via virtualization, the image you download might aleady have a username and password set up, you'll have to find it from whereever you downloaded it. | 23:27 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, yes | 23:27 |
| Flannel | Kimochi: No | 23:27 |
| Kimochi | Hmm... | 23:28 |
| Daps | altf2o, yup.. its up and shows the shared folder | 23:28 |
| ejn85 | jebblue i am my admin, this is all at my house. i tried moving the mouse and nothing happens, the "send ctrl-alt-del button on the viewer wont light. it just came back at me and said that it was closed. | 23:28 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, is cron running? ps -ef | grep cron | 23:28 |
| Kimochi | The password can have spaces and caps, right? | 23:28 |
| altf2o | ok cool. And does the pdbedit show the user name you're trying to connect with? | 23:28 |
| josh_ | ejn85, have you set up ssh on the "server"? | 23:28 |
| felixsulla | joeb3: It appears so, its on the first line of that command you just gave me. | 23:28 |
| felixsulla | joeb3_: Does the syslog show some kind of error? | 23:29 |
| regressless | Kimochi: I don't know about spaces, but caps, yes | 23:29 |
| ejn85 | josh_ what is ssh? | 23:29 |
| aleron6 | does anybodys music sound different from the upgfrade to jaunty | 23:29 |
| jebblue | ejn85 dunno then, on the TCP issue, you would need to either run a DNS server or add "download" w/o quotes to your /etc/hosts file I think | 23:29 |
| Here4TheGear | Kimochi: no spaces in a password, it's a password, but yes, caps if you want | 23:29 |
| shumpfrey | hi | 23:29 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, what entry did you add with the -e? What time? | 23:29 |
| regressless | anyone want to tackle my problem? | 23:29 |
| felixsulla | joeb3_: I (think) I made it run every five minutes, I'm trying to call a python script. | 23:29 |
| regressless | I'll post it again: | 23:29 |
| regressless | Help please? I've been running Ubuntu 9.04 with the array.org thing on my eeepc with no problems.

| mefiiik | doues anybody know how to share pictures, music etc on linux with nokia n95?... | 23:30 |
| Turbolinux | Hello again. I just controlled my soundcard and it's Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03). The links don't give me the solution about my soundcard. What can I do now? | 23:30 |
| === stlsaint_ is now known as stlsaint | ||
| jebblue | ejn85 try installing Terminal Server Client from Synaptic or Add/Remove programs, maybe it will give a better set of rdesktop options that would enable a successful connection | 23:30 |
| shumpfrey | I just installed mint, I already have ubuntu installed. Now I have a 11.12GB swap and a 172.54MB swap. Is there any way I can delete one and have the two distros use the same swap? | 23:30 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, open another window. tail -f /var/log/syslog. wait for for it to run. check for errors. | 23:30 |
| ejn85 | jebblue i have terminal sever client installed. hold on and ill try that | 23:30 |
| felixsulla | joeb3_: That last command you gave, does that just keep syslog open and running? | 23:31 |
| Flannel | shumpfrey: Yeah | 23:31 |
| aleron6 | does anybody know how i can fix this sound issue im having | 23:31 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, yes | 23:31 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | excuse me... where can i download the following archives: "Qt 4.2;" "FreePascal 1.9.4;" "SDL 1.2.5;" "SDL_net 1.2.5;" "SDL_mixer 1.2;" "SDL_image 1.2;" "SDL_ttf 2.0;" "CMake 2.4.4 ." | 23:31 |
| felixsulla | joeb3_: That is pretty cool :) | 23:31 |
| bobertdos | Turbolinux: What was the original problem? Just no sound? | 23:31 |
| RHorse | shumpfrey sure you prolly don't even need a swap, but yes, you can | 23:31 |
| Flannel | shumpfrey: Just know that your swap is where the hibernate image goes, so if you hibernate and then boot the other one, your hibernation will die. | 23:32 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, ctrl-c to close it. | 23:32 |
| Turbolinux | My audio Audio device is Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03). The links don't give me the solution about my soundcard. What can I do now? | 23:32 |
| felixsulla | * Starting periodic command scheduler crond [fail] | 23:32 |
| Turbolinux | Yes, no sound. | 23:32 |
| felixsulla | That message .. does that mean cron is not allowed, then, or that the job itself is configured wrong? | 23:32 |
| altf2o | Daps - if it doesn't you can try and add that user to Sambas PW db, sudo smbpasswd -a <user> , (i have libpam-smbpass installed which syncs Samba w/ local PWs). Also try making the share complately unrestricted: guest ok = yes, even setting the shared folder permissions to 0777 and see if it helps. | 23:32 |
| bobertdos | !sound | Turbolinux | 23:32 |
| ubottu | Turbolinux: 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 | 23:32 |
| seidos | Turbolinux: have you tried modifying your /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file? | 23:32 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, leave the tail window open. in another run sudo /etc/init.d/cron restart | 23:33 |
| ratapoil | I want to install VLC, but I'm not sure I want to have all those QT libraries. Would they slow down my gnome? | 23:33 |
| felixsulla | joeb3_: * Starting periodic command scheduler crond [fail] | 23:33 |
| altf2o | ratapoil: no. If your system slows down it's because the specs are low, QT being installed shouldn't do that. | 23:33 |
| Turbolinux | No, I haven't configured my ALSA file. | 23:33 |
| shumpfrey | How do I change the swap uuid or whatever it is? | 23:34 |
| Daps | altf2o, so create mask 0777 instead of 0755 ?? | 23:34 |
| scott9876 | hey, honesty unbiased opinion...is the open office excel up to MSFT | 23:34 |
| altf2o | i've had Ubuntu and Kubuntu installed so i can switch between both for some time, no slowdown in either. | 23:34 |
| ejn85 | jebblue tah dah!!! its a miracle!! i used the ip address i acquired from the ipconfig in windows instead of the computer name and the credentials for the pc and it worked right away!! i dont mean to be a pain but is it difficult to setup remote desktop connection from windows to linux? (if you have quick answer that is fine, i can save that question for a later date) | 23:34 |
| felixsulla | scott9876: IMO? Its not as good, but its pretty good. | 23:34 |
| mysecondwind | hey everybody i had a question about ubuntu. i currently am not a user of it and never used linux in my life. i am experienced with computers so i doubt i would screw anything up. now i want to know. i got a pretty reliable computer (1 gig of ram, 160 gigs of space, etc etc) and am currently on a windows vista computer, now i was thinking of double booting somehow and have it run windows vista and ubuntu. if not my computer does have | 23:34 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, ok, then remove what you added with -e and try again to restart cron | 23:34 |
| seidos | Turbolinux: there is a howto on snd_hda_intel | 23:34 |
| scott9876 | I don't want to install wine but I kinda am use to msft office | 23:34 |
| scott9876 | shall I resist? | 23:34 |
| jebblue | ejn85 nice :) well just run a VNC server on Linux and a VNC client in Windows and that should do it | 23:35 |
| altf2o | Daps - i'd leave the mask for now, what you're looking at is the actual permissions for your shared folder. If for instance you have it in: /home/Daps/shared , and permissions listed with: ls -lah shared , are equiv. to 0755 , try setting that folder to 0777 and see if it helps. | 23:35 |
| mysecondwind | jebblue are you talking to me? | 23:35 |
| felixsulla | joeb3_: /etc/init.d/cron restart gave [OK] | 23:35 |
| kd8JHC | scott9876 - install VirutalBox and install XP on a virtual machine | 23:35 |
| Irving | anyone play open arena | 23:35 |
| younder | scott9876: what's wrong with openOffice? | 23:35 |
| felixsulla | joeb3_: So I guess I wait 5 min. and see if my cron works! | 23:35 |
| jebblue | mysecondwind: no was talking to ejn85 | 23:35 |
| altf2o | i had a big problem with local file permissions (which supersede Sambas write\modify permissions) so i created a group to use for 'shared folders.' | 23:35 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, ok, so what did you add? | 23:35 |
| Here4TheGear | I am getting ready to reimage a vps which has ubuntu on it. Can someone tell me if I am either missing something or being redundant in this line to install the items I will need for a php project? thanks... aptitude install libapache2-mod-php5 php5-cli php5-curl php5-mysql mysql-server mysql-client | 23:35 |
| scott9876 | don't know how good is openoffice | 23:36 |
| bobertdos | scott9876: I've always felt that openoffice maintains a level equivalent to Office XP, and it's always been enough for my purposes. | 23:36 |
| scott9876 | and I need to send docs in *.doc or .xls files | 23:36 |
| ejn85 | jebblue thank you again! any recommendations on which vnc to go with? | 23:36 |
| Flannel | !lamp | Here4TheGear | 23:36 |
| ubottu | Here4TheGear: 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+) | 23:36 |
| Flannel | Here4TheGear: check out that wiki page, it'll get you all set up | 23:36 |
| younder | scott9876: adequate for my needs. Like a old version of office | 23:36 |
| felixsulla | joeb3_: I just did restart instead of start. I guess it was giving [fail] since it was already running? | 23:36 |
| bobertdos | scott9876: and OpenOffice can do that perfectly fine. | 23:37 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, ok | 23:37 |
| scott9876 | bobertdos: can I send docs in the msft format without the receiver knowing anything is wrong | 23:37 |
| * altf2o has seen OpenOffice.org come a /long/ way in the past several years. IMO it's an outstanding package i recommend to everyone. | 23:37 | |
| RHorse | felixsulla have you posted your crontab? | 23:37 |
| felixsulla | RHorse: No, I can if you want to see it. | 23:37 |
| Daps | altf2o, how do i go about changing that to 0777 ? | 23:37 |
| scott9876 | it's work related files, so I'm happy to go with openoffice but I don't want to get fired | 23:37 |
| felixsulla | Does cron start automatically when Ubuntu boots up? | 23:37 |
| shumpfrey | what does swapon/swapoff do in gparted? | 23:37 |
| RHorse | sure, felixsulla | 23:37 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, it should. | 23:37 |
| jebblue | ejn85 I like a secure connection and I'm too cheap to buy the commercial grade VNC so I use ssh to tunnel into my target host then run vncserver | 23:37 |
| felixsulla | joeb3_: by default, right? | 23:38 |
| joeb3_ | felixsulla, right. | 23:38 |
| erUSUL | shumpfrey: the same as in the command line activate/deactivate the swap space | 23:38 |
| aleron6 | can about here help with with my sound issue | 23:38 |
| jebblue | ejn85 you can install a graphical tool GSTM to help with establishing secure tunnels to Linux boxes | 23:38 |
| bobertdos | scott9876: It will handle the xls and doc formats. The only thing that's a little tricker are the new 2007 formats, docx and the like | 23:38 |
| altf2o | Daps - the Linux 'chmod' command: chmod 0777 /path/to/shared , just remember to switch it back if it doesn't work: chmod 0755 /path/to/shared . Also another note the Ubuntu docs put the ownership of the folder as: nobody:nogroup , that screwed me up big time when it came to shared folders among several PCs and or users. | 23:38 |
| jmarsden | felixsulla: ps a |grep cron should show you that cron is running | 23:39 |
| scott9876 | ok, I'll stay msft free than | 23:39 |
| scott9876 | hurray | 23:39 |
| mysecondwind | hey everybody i had a question about ubuntu. i currently am not a user of it and never used linux in my life. i am experienced with computers so i doubt i would screw anything up. now i want to know. i got a pretty reliable computer (1 gig of ram, 160 gigs of space, etc etc) and am currently on a windows vista computer, now i was thinking of double booting somehow and have it run windows vista and ubuntu. if not my computer does have | 23:39 |
| felixsulla | mysecondwind: Dual partition, or use Virtualbox | 23:40 |
| bobertdos | scott9876: To be fair, formatting may sometimes be a bit off, but that happens with MS Office as it is, so, yeah........ | 23:40 |
| jebblue | ejn85: or the easy way if you are not paranoid like me is to enable remote desktop using Vino which should be installed with Gnome if you are using default Ubuntu - check Preferences | Remote Desktop | 23:40 |
| Here4TheGear | Flannel: thanks a bunch | 23:40 |
| erUSUL | mysecondwind: your post is too large and is beating the 400 char max. rephrase your question | 23:40 |

| n8tuser | mysecondwind-> you may use windows7 to resize your partition and leave a new partition just for linux and swap..so you can install tothe new partition | 23:42 |
| felixsulla | mysecondwind: Dual partition, read up on configuring grub to switch back to Vista as the primary OS loaded. Use Gparted to set your partitions. | 23:42 |

| peteyp1 | sudo -l ? | 23:49 |
| Flannel | peteyp1: no, sudo [command] | 23:49 |
| koshari | apollo1 basically, you could use some cli magic to make a list for apt to do it automatically. | 23:50 |
| cafuego | aptitude will generally automagically remove stuff without installed rdepends anyway. | 23:50 |

| elninja__ | Just installed an USB printer for the family. I'm impressed by how little effort that required with CUPS under Ubuntu 8.04... Basically just checked the box to share published printers, and now it's automagically listed when printing from any machine on the network without having to do anything on any of them. Amazing. | 23:59 |
