[00:00] mneptok - oh, I see it now. It was mixed in with the other 2 comments right before. My bad. :P [00:00] steffan this what INSTALL.txt says 2) run configure, with any options that you might prefer: [00:00] Mka: something like '>at 20:12 < run.txt' for example [00:00] ./configure --disable-rpath --enable-maintainer-mode --prefix /usr [00:00] scunizzi: i know cron a lot [00:00] Mka: what is it you require? [00:00] steffan not sure what it means, this is the first time I compile lol [00:00] i use win vista only to play video game === CShadowRun is now known as cshadowrun === LJL is now known as LjL [00:00] soundray - so, my account is roasted, and if I say passwd roasted it'll ask me to type in a new pw? [00:00] neip: that is what the INSTALL file is for [00:01] its not ok whit wine [00:01] Roasted: yes [00:01] steffan: aaah, yes, can I do this "at 20:12 ls"? [00:01] Roasted: correct === cshadowrun is now known as CShadowRun [00:01] Mka: 'man at' [00:01] What command do I use to tar and gzip a directory and all its contents into a single file? [00:01] neip: what package are you attempting to install? [00:01] in fact windows sucks, but i need to play my vid games [00:01] lol [00:01] and wine... [00:01] steffan: I looked at man before I came here, I have a book on linux too [00:01] queso_: tar -cvgf /path/to/stuff [00:01] soundray, mneptok - isn't this a potential vulnerability? I work at a school district in IT, so say I set up an ubuntu lab with a local administrator account and the students know it exists. They could just reboot to recovery and zap the admin password - couldnt they? [00:02] steffan gyachi-1.1.71 [00:02] spook2012: check out CEDEGA [00:02] queso_: 'tar zcf file.tar.gz /path/to/directory' [00:02] queso_: tar -cf archive.tar myDirectories/ | gzip archive.tar [00:02] Roasted: set the GRUB menu timeout to 0 [00:02] cedega is a joke, it's just Wine with a little proprietary eye candy attached [00:02] mneptok - but that leaves no time to select XP or Ubuntu, assuming its a lab that requires dual boot. [00:03] lol, it shall never work, bill gates or microsoft has his own lib [00:03] mneptok - I know Im throwing out weird obstacles at ya but I'm just really security curious now that I came across this. [00:03] neip: what version of Ubuntu are you using? [00:03] c++ for gamer [00:03] Roasted: yes. You can't let untrusted users access the physical hardware - there will always be a way in. [00:03] games [00:03] steffan 9.04 [00:03] soundray - if we cant let untrusted users access the physical computers, we might as well take every computer out of the school districts. Those little bastards are pretty slick. [00:03] direct X [00:03] mneptok, soundray, steffan: thanks! :) [00:03] Roasted: anyone can get in with setting the kernel command line to init=/bin/sh [00:03] Roasted: with physical access, it's Game Over, anyway [00:04] Roasted: i could just bring a bootable USB key and a screwdriver [00:04] Guys, I have a question [00:04] neip: add ppa:loell/ppa to your /etc/apt/sources.list and install [00:04] Roasted: you could remove the Recovery boot option. You can also protect individual entries with passwords in grub, I think. [00:04] the cool games they make for pc, not work on linux [00:04] mneptok - whats the screwdrivers purpose? [00:04] steffan: I think I got what I want from your example, but I am not happy that "at" requires a file [00:04] !question | KDM [00:04] KDM: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily).

What has mithbuntu?

See: http://www.mythbuntu.org for more information [00:05] Roasted: open the chassis, remove the CMOS battery, and thus reset the BIOS so that any BIOS password protecting the boot order is gone.

[00:05] kdm #ubuntu+1 for karmic [00:05] does anyone know how to use windows drivers in UBUNTU [00:05] soundray, mneptok - The reality is, if a system is down, I reimage it anyway cause I have images on file of every system I deal with. But I was just curious now that I ran into this issue. [00:05] i have a usb driver i need to install [00:05] usb device [00:05] nooobie: you cant use them (only wifi-drivers) [00:05] oooh [00:05] <[A]KangB> thanks shane2peru [00:05] so i cant install a usb device with ubuntu [00:06] neip: following https://launchpad.net/~loell/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=jaunty will help [00:06] nooobie, normally you would not need them [00:06] nooobie: There are already usb drivers in ubuntu. You probably do not need to install more. [00:06] hi i need some help. running a l;ive cd to fix up a windows system and i cant seem to get nautilus to delete files on the windows drive [00:06] Mka: i'm sure it can run commands that don't have files attached too? [00:06] mneptok, soundray - thanks for the help guys [00:06] steffan thanks a lot, I'll try it [00:06] [A]KangB: no prob I was looking on their web site to see too. [00:06] its for a usb dongle for obd2 cars [00:07] its a usb device though. so i cant install a windows usb driver for it [00:07] dro: maybe try to add an entry to /etc/network/interfaces [00:07] anyone want to help me with a nvidia driver [00:07] hi i need some help. running a l;ive cd to fix up a windows system and i cant seem to get nautilus to delete files on the windows drive [00:07] <[A]KangB> shane2peru, any more ubuntu based distro? excluding edubuntu [00:07] !ask | od3n [00:07] od3n: 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. :-) [00:07] nooobie: most of these are just standard USB-serial converters, so they'll work in principle. [00:07] [A]KangB: Xubuntu? I think [00:07] dro: auto eth0 [00:07] k [00:07] nooobie: Ah... I think those usually show up as a serial device. When you use your ODB2 reader in Windows, does it usually require that you open up a program like Hyperterminal and connect using COM1 or something like that? [00:07] [A]KangB: uses XFCE [00:07] hmmm [00:07] nope its not a simple converter [00:07] !derivitave [00:08] Sorry, I don't know anything about derivitave [00:08] nooobie: not sure whether there is software for reading the OBDII protocol, though [00:08] !variant [00:08] !Kubuntu and !Xubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with KDE and Xfce (respectively) installed as default, instead of GNOME.

Well, in all honesty I've never used it. From a little bit of searching it seemed like it's just a variant of the C language. So if you pick up any C programming book you should get your answer (I think it will involve getchar() or some such).

As far as I remember all I used was the Network Administration Tool.

[00:21] Mka: sorry, correction: [00:21] Mka: you can do a 'tail -f ~/lssink & ls >~/lssink | at 15:00' and you'll see the output in the same terminal [00:21] it will take way less time to "upgrade" ubuntu to ubuntu studio :P [00:21] homovitruvius: here is an example link: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ [00:21] shane2peru: !term | nick is usefull if numerous people are wondering the same question, or you want to explain it further. !term > nick is preferable as it doesn't flood the channel with the term (if it's not needed) [00:22] how do i delete files form a window partition from sa live cd?

[00:29] Mka: let me think about the time specifying issue [00:29] ernie_eu: yes you probably can, but Windows should really be removed when it's virus infected [00:29] PCTeacher012, karmic beta a couple of days ago; not you [00:29] naxa, ok I am goint to see it right now too.. [00:29] bazhang: Okay, thanks for the info [00:29] homovitr`: maybe it's putting the other interface automatically. I'd say, check the .config files [00:29] ernie_eu: removed/reinstalled only true way to make sure any malware is gone, I suppouse this applys to any OS not just Windows [00:30] wlodi: which .config file? [00:30] yosh1: is your windows partition NTFS or FAT? [00:30] sebsebseb: a bit extreme [00:30] ernie_eu: there is probably a sys file infected too, that will ruin your windows install when you remove it, if it is that bad of a virus [00:30] ernie_eu: what is>? [00:31] Mka: i think ntfs [00:31] Mka: mouting with the ntfs option worked anyway [00:31] shane2peru: ok, good to know [00:31] I'm trying to update from 9.04 -> 9.10, I've downloaded the files and now when I try to update I get the error: The upgrade is now aborted. Your system could be in an unusable state. A recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a). [00:31] sebsebseb: reinstalling a windows means I will have to reintall Ubuntu [00:31] ernie_eu: you will need freshclam too, as that updates clamav, it may be the same package, but you need to run it to update your antivirus database [00:32] it's on the same disk [00:32] ernie_eu: formatting and re installing Windows or any other OS, that has been infected by malware is not extreame, once your infected with a virus, loads of nasty things that you don't know about could be going on in the background [00:32] ernie_eu: oh you did Ubuntu with Wubi? [00:32] shane2peru: freshclam ? [00:32] yosh1: unmount your windows fpartition and mount it again specifying that it should be writable [00:32] sebsebseb: no [00:32] ernie_eu: Why do you say you need to re install Ubuntu as well then? [00:32] Mka: whats the tag for that? [00:32] sebsebseb: but it usually causes grub to throw erro [00:32] yosh1: but you need to know if it is FAT or NTFS first [00:33] ernie_eu: it updates clamav database, and you can install grub without installing Ubuntu all over again, when you install windows, grub gets over written, but it can be reinstalled [00:33] homovitr`: now that's a good question.

My system gets stuck at the (initramfs) prompt I guess it is. [01:52] ody here [01:53] hashbrowns: can press ctrl + alt + f1 at boot to see some errors? [01:53] iceroot: I just did that; but it says: Your desktop is only reachable over the local network. Others can access your computer using the address 192.168.0.100 , owner-laptop.local.

[01:56] iceroot: so what do I do now? [01:56] gmoore02: You should be able to install it from apt without issue. It will require a lot of KDE libs, which will be installed automatically. [01:56] Rabbitbunny: is it fomarted as NTFS, FAT, or ext3? [01:56] skreet: I'm not quite sure how I would do that.

[01:58] not KDE, not Xfce, not Gnome, not fluxbox ;) It is E16 :D [01:58] Gika, I did sudo aptitude install gparted, but then it wants to remove a ton of files [01:58] gmoore02: I've run into that before -- very annoying. Your options are: wait for package maintainer to fix it, cry, install manually (ugh) [01:58] amarok common is 2.2.1.0 and it needs 2.2.2.0 [01:58] ah, ok, I'll just wait then. Thanks for the help skreet [01:58] iceroot: I was throwing more and more general questions out there to see if anybody would respond. I have a very specific question. [01:58] Rabbitbunny: is it an external drive?

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 ..."

[01:59] Rabbitbunny: pastebin me the output of "sudo fdisk -l" [01:59] quit() [01:59] Why does Ubuntu keep reporting "The CUPS scheduler is not running" when I click "Default Printers" when CUPS rather obviously is running? [01:59] when i login, there is a weird static tone sound, but i have system sounds turned off [01:59] [Nobody]: you there? [02:00] ryguy, i don't know, it shouldn't conflict with those packages... have you tried apt-get instead of aptitude?

[02:01] very good ryguy :) [02:01] has anyone come across kermit starting up really slowly? [02:01] iceroot: I get nothing. Is there a way I could purge the kernel update and try again? [02:01] hashbrowns: just use the 2.6.28-14 grub-entry [02:01] iceroot: or possible purge all of the updates that happened last. [02:01] hashbrowns: no [02:01] iceroot: Any ideas? [02:01] iceroot: how would I do that? [02:02] Is there a way to change the console resolution without restarting the kernel? [02:02] iceroot: just dont use the newer kernel? [02:02] iceroot: like hit escape each time and manually select it from the list? [02:02] hashbrowns: just make 2.6.28-14 the deault entry until you found a solution [02:02] hashbrowns: you can uninstall the .15 kernel via synaptic [02:02] hey i cant find a channel about hacking [02:03] Rabbitbunny: it has no ext3 in it, but I can see it [02:03] EricTheHax: #remote-exploit .. i think [02:03] Mka: That's not funny, my pron is on the ext3 part.

Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [02:06] can some tell me if Ubuntu is encrypting all my files? [02:06] khunter619: certainly not by default.

But "Default Printers" says "The CUPS scheduler is not running" and no applications seem to see a printer. [02:06] DPic: i remember elementary school. i hated those things. i actually asked "do you have a confiscated gun and an unrepairable mac around here? id love to show you how to fix a mac." [02:06] Mka: Hmm, Why doesn't it do it on it's own anymore? [02:07] does anyone want to use remote assistance to help me? [02:07] Mka: I used to just plug it in and it was magic.

[02:08] i have less than 24 hours to finish [02:08] Hodapp: that's weird.. let's start with which printer you're using and how you installed the drivers [02:08] Rabbitbunny: then your ubuntu is messed up [02:08] if it's a mac I wouldn't think you could put ubuntu on it [02:08] DPic: what version macbook? [02:08] 5,2 [02:08] FiReSTaRT: It's a printer on the network. I set it up through the web interface at 127.0.0.1:631 and pointed it to the network printer (which is also shared via [02:08] Mka: Should I reboot or something? [02:08] Doc_Lappy: you can.

[02:12] hi!, anybody knows how well is running the latest beta? i would like to install and start using it right now xD [02:13] jrib: i don't think i *can* run it, but i'm pretty sure the CD isn't the problem since this happens with the 32-bit CD, 64-bit Cd, alternate CD, and a USB drive [02:13] Is there a way to change the console resolution without restarting? [02:13] Hodapp: my recommendation is to remove the foomatic driver (even though it works pretty nicely on the hp printer that i have) and install the brother drivers from their linux page http://solutions.brother.com/linux/en_us/ [02:13] DPic: ok, what happens when you try to run it? [02:13] FiReSTaRT: Why do you believe this would help? [02:14] surfinmdq, check the notes at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/beta (fyi it works fine on my computer, but i'd wait the RC at least) [02:14] Hodapp: simply because it worked for me :) [02:14] FiReSTaRT: Did Ubuntu fail to see that CUPS was running when it was?

[02:17] jrib: I need to fix my wifi driver....Ubuntu thinks its RTL some other number [02:17] khunter619: if bash says so, there will _not_ be a file there with that specific name, see if it's mispelled, in another directory...? [02:17] so it is very slow [02:18] Rabbitbunny: maybe you unmounted the drive by mistake [02:18] Gika: yes there is makedrv file [02:18] can some one help me via remote assistance [02:18] Rabbitbunny: if your right-click the icon in the desktop and select unmount (or remove, or eject) [02:19] Mka: I'm going to blame this on my gf, I told her to click things and see what they did the other day. Maybe she tried. [02:19] khunter619: Unfortunately no. Do you have a link to driver archive download [02:19] khunter619: this is remote assistance, what more do you want? [02:19] anybody want to help me via Remote Desktop? [02:19] please? [02:19] jrib: same error. [02:19] khunter619: try this command and paste the output: ls ~/Desktop/rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007 [02:19] jrib: i posted it here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1281974 [02:20] if I do "rm .encryptfs", will that delete both the link and the link's target for lrwxrwxrwx 1 mikelifeguard mikelifeguard 31 2009-10-03 22:08 .ecryptfs -> /var/lib/ecryptfs/mikelifeguard ?

[02:22] grrrr #hax is invitation only [02:22] jrib: yeah [02:22] Si235: people still use kermit?? [02:23] Mka: yes the latest version; but after yesterdays update I think it is .10.15 [02:23] jrib: and i tested multiple disks that worked with other machines [02:23] EricTheHax: it's forwarding to a closed channel, so it appears to be invite-only [02:23] DPic: don't know then. That model is very recent. You might try installing through some other method like from a usb disk to see if it makes a difference [02:23] oh [02:23] Hello all [02:23] DPic: and try other distros [02:23] Mka: how do I see which version of Ubuntu I am running? === Guest88912 is now known as bowser [02:23] jrib: i did try USB, perhaps i'll try another distro [02:23] khunter619: lsb_release -a [02:23] and i'll file a bug report [02:23] jrib: thanks for trying! [02:24] DPic: good luck [02:24] khunter619: you should know if ever it's karmic, jaunty, intrepid or hardy [02:24] I am having a little issue, if anyone could be so kind to help [02:24] okay. I found the problem. /etc/cups/client.conf was set to point to 192.168.200.11, a nonexistent server. [02:24] Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 Codename: jaunty [02:24] Later: you have to ask a question first :) [02:24] all of the GUI tools would read this file but none of them would configure it [02:24] Its very SLOW [02:25] I was told yesterday that maybe I need to again reformat [02:25] Hodapp: cups has it's own server .. http://localhost:631 [02:25] even though I deleted all partitions before installing Ubuntu? [02:25] Well, I have recently found an odd problem. On MSN and skype etc etc, my webcam works fine for users who is not using Windows Vista as there operating system [02:25] I have 2.5 GHz single core; and 700 MB+ ram [02:25] scunizi: I know this. I was running said server, but Ubuntu kept looking for 192.168.200.11. [02:26] ah [02:26] But if somone is using Windows Vista for there OS, they can't see me on my webcam, it either goes black or keeps loading [02:26] is there a way to see which Filesystem is on my computer ext3 or ext4 etx? [02:26] khunter619: so why did you end up obliged to install a driver? [02:26] "Gika: rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007 comes in blue" khunter619: then you need to use cd again [02:26] etc?

[02:26] khunter619, try opening the rtl8187 folder on your desktop. what's inside? [02:26] khunter619: in a terminal type .. less /etc/fstab [02:26] khunter619: type "mount" [02:27] Gika: the makedrv file [02:27] Later: Offer them a free upgrade.

The only method I know to do this is to edit sources.list and change "jaunty" to "karmic", then "sudo apt-get update". After that, I would "apt-get source linux-source-2.6.31 --download-only". I only want to upgrade and customize my own kernel (to remove unnecessary support for non-existent devices). Is there a better method [02:29] for getting the latest kernel and Ubuntu patches?

[02:31] HDA Intel Alsa mixer [02:31] Have, this was a last resort [02:31] jrib, yes, I already know how to get the kernel source and how to compile it. Is there a better way to obtain the latest sources other than changing "jaunty" to "karmic" in sources.list? [02:31] virtual box is kinda slow i think [02:31] are there any good CAD/CAM solutions for Linux? [02:31] kit_: do not do that [02:31] kit_: Why do you think you want the latest kernel?

Using a 42" TV.. The only 16:9 resolution available is 1920x1080 which is too large to full screen videos. I've been trying to add a lower 16:9 resolution by editing xorg.conf and using xrandr command but I have been unable to. [02:32] Elone: having run vmware for a couple of years then trying vbox.. I much prefer vbox [02:32] Had this problem on jaunty as well [02:32] Elone: Virtualbox is plenty fast. I run karmic in virtualbox on 1 core of a 1.6ghz dual core and it doesn't even stutter under high load. [02:32] kit_: you should *not* be editing sources.list for this [02:32] AdamB: Are you generating modelines? [02:32] nothing happen [02:32] Using a radeon 9700 as well [02:32] I've tested it on Skype and AMSN and the problem persists. If it wasn't compatible I wouldn't be able to see there's eithers. It has to be a problem with Ubuntu 9.04 [02:32] Guest96: now see if you get any sound [02:33] Gika: that CHmod thing worked [02:33] hmmm let me try ~ [02:33] Guest96: modprobe usually says nothing when it works [02:33] Elone: It helps to install the guest extensions if you're running something with graphics. [02:33] what does CHmod do ? [02:33] sebsebseb, I have already tried booting from 2.6.31 with the Ubuntu patches, the only thing that went wrong was "Loading AppArmor module... FAILED"... [02:33] Yes but I very well might be using the commands incorrectly [02:33] no sounds [02:33] kit_: why do you want the later kernel? [02:33] khunter619: it changes file permissions [02:33] Later: Nah, Vista is very "trusted computing". [02:33] khunter619: it adds permissions to a file. +x means "make the file executable" [02:33] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems i want there [02:33] Elone: Go for the non-free version straight from the vbox website if ose gives you problems. [02:33] Later: even some Linux users go to ##windows [02:33] thanks [02:33] AdamB: Find a tutorial, follow it. [02:34] ok now there is again error [02:34] Guest96: there is also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting [02:34] Later: and Skype and web cam, well yes there can be issues getting that set up properly in Ubuntu [02:34] VirtualBox PUEL comes with more features [02:34] Lol, I did.. let me show you the commands I used [02:34] Checking permissions part on my ubuntu i don't have ermissions [02:34] Dave__: hi [02:34] xrandr --newmode 1280x720_60.00 74.50 1280 1344 1472 1664 720 723 728 748 -hsync +vsync [02:34] sebsebseb, because I want the bleeding edge? (I'm not a developer though). Should I just customize the 2.6.28 kernel? [02:34] True, normally I would think it was the messenger, but my AMSN does it also.. Works fine for Windows XP/2000 etc users but not for Vista users [02:34] Any recomendations of 6 gb os swap space than never is used on ubuntu with 4gb of ram ? [02:34] its truely akward [02:34] hi all! [02:34] someone know a tool for find and delete duplicate files? [02:34] http://paste.ubuntu.com/285075/ [02:35] Hey, does anyone know if 9.04 and a Nvidia 9800GTX work together? I've only found conflicting information. [02:35] xrandr --addmode VGA-0 1280x720 [02:35] kit_: want bleeding edge well you don't get that with Ubuntu, even when trying development versions of the next one [02:35] Elone: yes.. vbox off their site is better .. usb support and other things.. [02:35] Later: Do both of those messengers use libpurple? [02:35] sebsebseb: welll...maybe around alpha 2 [02:35] I have no idea honestly [02:35] kit_: however yes it does have the kernel you want [02:35] AdamB: That looks correct. Not quite sure. [02:35] Rabbitbunny: I don't think the original MSN messenger or live messenger use libpurple.. just aMSN [02:35] use audio devices is uncheck and can't check it?? would this be my problem [02:35] kit_: ,but trying to install it in 9.04, just, because you want it, because it's later, that's a silly reason really [02:35] how do i get people to notice a channel [02:36] Hey, could someone list off a couple of games that have cool graphics I can get from Synaptic ? [02:36] The resolutions worked fine in XP so I'm sure it's not a hardware issue [02:36] Guest96: is there an unlock button of some sort? [02:36] khunter619: try: /home/owner/Desktop/rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007/rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007/ [02:36] scunizi: Right, And since it's only a problem with Vista, That kinda narrows it down. [02:36] khunter619: and then ./makedrv [02:36] khunter619: do you have no other items apart from the makedrv file? [02:36] kit_: youre welcome to beta test 9.10 if you want. it has 2.6.31 [02:37] i have 6 gb of swap space but i see usign free -m that never ue swap space === Guest40647 is now known as lucy [02:37] How can I tell how much physical RAM my computer has? [02:37] look like i don't access to it [02:37] sebsebseb, okay thanks for the info :) I'll just customize the 2.6.28 kernel then (I used to trim down my XP with nLite before, I want to do the same with Ubuntu) [02:37] ekimmargni: BIOS. [02:37] kit_: no that's not the way to do it really [02:37] aayala: 6GB is overkill 2GB on any computer is more than enough [02:37] kit_: you might as well just beta test 9.10 [02:37] thanls [02:37] i can't not lock it on? [02:37] Is xrandr the only way to set custom resolutions while using open source radeon driver? [02:37] bastid_raZor: 640k ought to be enough for anyone. [02:37] What's a cool first person shooter I can download from Synaptic ? [02:37] Rabbitbunny: yep.. despite Later thinking it is on the ubuntu end [02:38] Guest96: I'm not sure [02:38] this is what I need to do: http://paste.ubuntu.com/285077/ [02:38] Guest96: if you were able to use sudo, then that should work [02:38] brandan: Sauerbraten. [02:38] brandan: nexuiz? [02:38] bastid_razor if i have a 4gb of ram i need swap space to hibernation or suspense the notebook ? [02:38] Lol, I've figured sense I could see them on there webcam it was with Ubuntu [02:38] canthus13: for suspend to ram at least 1GB should be allocated. my laptop gets up around 600MB [02:38] maco: hmm at us suggesting for someone to maybe beta test it :D [02:38] aayala: to suspend .. hibernate writes to disk. [02:38] Gika: you mean cd /home/owner/Desktop/rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007/rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007/ ? [02:38] sebsebseb, I see.. I'm not intending to beta test 9.10 yet, I just want to trim down my Ubuntu kernel (like taking out support for the Intel CPU, since I only have the AMD) [02:38] sebsebseb: what? we can always use testers ;) [02:39] in terminal i can!! [02:39] bastid_raZor: Ah. Swap space. I missed that. [02:39] ok 2gb is the right size ? [02:39] yes khunter619 sorry [02:39] canthus13: :) ... aayala: yes [02:39] canthus13, lstarnes thanks I am gonna get both, i dunno how long they will take to download tho [02:39] thanks a lot [02:39] kit_: that's a pretty pointless thing to do really [02:39] i want to resize the disk [02:39] khunter619: and then ./makedrv [02:39] Later: It's probably going to require a work-around on the ubuntu end, You should really report it to the correct team and help them debug it. [02:40] brandan: There are a few others, too. Sauerbraten will take quite a while. especially if the repos are still bogged down. [02:40] kit_: have you used Gentoo? [02:40] Alright, where do I report this to? [02:40] I actually can't remember how to report bugs... [02:40] sebsebseb, IMHO it frees up space on my HD and the kernel will have fewer modules/drivers to search.. Why do you think it's pointless? Enlighten me.. :) [02:40] Hi all. I was wondering how I upgrade to ext4? [02:40] !bug | Rabbitbunny, Later [02:40] Rabbitbunny, Later: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » 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 [02:40] in terminal i can use sudo!!!?!?!

[02:41] kit_: well it's Ubuntu, what your wanting to do hardly anyone does that with Ubuntu, with Gentoo on the other hand oh yes stuff like that some people might do [02:41] no [02:41] Gika: did it install properly: http://paste.ubuntu.com/285078/ ? [02:41] no [02:41] Guest96: I usually see things even if I don't respond [02:41] kit_: only mentionting Gentoo since maco 's pm by the way [02:42] Alright I will report it, I highly doubt it be on there priority list though ha. [02:42] there is amsn for MSN, is there any Yahoo like clone for Ubuntu ? [02:42] lots of errors! [02:42] i use to get sounds but my ubuntu crash and now nothing [02:42] kit_: well as far as hard drive space...if your hard drive is > 2gb, i dont think youve much to worry about there ;) but yeah, having fewer things as modules makes faster boot and fewer built in makes smaller memory footprint (though if you have over 64mb of ram...) so... [02:42] hello, my mouse stopped working recently, would someone help me debug it? [02:42] brandan: pidgin is no good for you? [02:42] khunter619: there is an easier way i think. building from source is complicated if you're new to linux. you could try downloading the windows driver, installing the package ndiswrapper (sudo apt-get install ndisgtk), running it (it's in system>administration>windows wireless drivers) and selecting the windows driver [02:42] Guest96: I'm not sure how to fix it [02:42] smerz yeah pidgin is okay but I wanted to use Audibles and stuff [02:43] smerz found on yahoo messenger [02:43] and video sync [02:43] can i mount /dev/sda7 to /tmp? [02:43] Gika: so the instal failed? http://paste.ubuntu.com/285078/ [02:43] ooypp: what do you use /dev/sda7 for? [02:43] jplbulls: what's wrong with it? [02:43] brandan: gyachi. There's a jaunty package on launchpad. [02:43] smerz how can I tell if my pidgin is the latest version ? [02:43] brandan: adio/video and instant messaging is tricky. you may wanna google for it. I have no recommendations :( [02:43] it not the first time it happen i have to format and reinstall ubuntu to get sounds back [02:44] yes khunter619 the building failed (i can't tell you why, there's something wrong with the compiler). try doing like i told you above [02:44] Guest96: you most likely don't have to reinstakk [02:44] Gnea: it shows some errors upon bootup, and as soon as the linux kernel kicks in the light on the mouse goes off [02:44] brandan: Gyachi supports yahoo video, picture sharing, and a few others. [02:44] brandan: help->about gives you version number. google for pidgin to check what is the latest version [02:44] Hi, all - when running update-manager -d and electing to upgrade to 9.10, the following happens (see the first post of the thread). My post within the thread is here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8048692&postcount=4 [02:44] jplbulls: what kind of mouse is it, exactly? [02:44] lstarnes: i want /tmp in a separate partition [02:44] Sorry to ask again but can anyone help me force a resolution which is not showing up on the display settings? [02:44] sebsebseb, okay thanks.. yes I've heard about Gentoo, but Ubuntu is the first Linux distro I have immersed myself in. So if want to take it apart and break, I'd rather do it with something the works well "out-of-the-box" :) [02:44] Gnea: when i replug it the light flashes like its failing to get recognized? [02:44] Thanks for the effort guys, see you around =).

[02:51] !fsck | xod: [02:51] xod:: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot [02:51] ring0: It's a unified API for audio.

[04:08] lstarnes: im getting a command not found [04:09] 02:0a.0 Communication controller: Agere Systems LT WinModem [04:09] abhilashm86, I suggest you go learn some basics of networking. [04:09] webbb821: check spelling [04:09] it says the driver is activated but not in use [04:09] not there.. but in the hardware drivers [04:09] so it sees it, just not communicating [04:09] hank1, Winmodem? I don't know if they ever got those fixed. [04:09] smil3y: ifconfig returns a ip address, that is local machine's right [04:09] master_> sounds like maybe the gateway address isnt what your isp is? you using a proxy? [04:09] courpse: ifconfig returns a ip address, that is local machine's right [04:09] sudo dpkg-i /home/brian/Downloads/telepathy-butterfly_0.5.1-1_all.deb [04:09] abhilashm86> thats your internal ip [04:10] webbb821: no [04:10] hi smily3: that is the case with my gateway [04:10] webbb821: you missed a space [04:10] abhilashm86, ifconfig, returns your IP address, your default gateway, and your submask. [04:10] i read in another forum some guy had this modem working in several flavors of linux that's why i went with it [04:10] webbb821: dpkg -i, not dpkg-i [04:10] but that was awhile ago [04:10] master_> souds like it [04:10] how would i fix? [04:11] this is frustrating because i'm setting this up for a friend and this is the last thing i need to get figured out before i give the system to him [04:11] abhilashm86> google for "myip" to get your external i[p [04:11] i should've worked on this first [04:11] hank1, Okay, I personally lean towards external USRobotics myself. I don't think I can help much. [04:11] courpse: ifconfig, yes and thats what i used all this time, http://www.whatismyip.com/ what is this? the router ip right?? [04:11] Has anyone using Karmic had the problem that Gdk mouse motion events (ie. BUTTON1_MOTION_MASK) aren't registering? [04:11] smil3y:yes and thats what i used all this time, http://www.whatismyip.com/ what is this? the router ip right?? [04:11] dsnyders thanks anyway gonna try some others [04:12] someone plz pm me re:ubuntu display problem === song is now known as Guest2257 [04:12] master_> whats your gateway now ? type route in a terminal and the last # will be your gateway [04:13] which tools is used on ubuntu docuemntation ? (http://help.ubuntu.com) [04:13] mediawiki ? [04:13] abhilashm86> yeah thats your external ip [04:13] HI all! Can I re-run a file in /etc/event.d without rebooting the whole system? [04:13] gateway shows * smily3 [04:14] smil3y: can i call that as router ip?? when i traced its location, it was router? [04:14] is there a good program to do "ftp diff" ? i.e. there is a FTP site I want to monitor, and I want to know when files on it changes [04:14] abhilashm86> huh? [04:14] smil3y: but in command line we cannot get external ip??:)) [04:15] master_> what does last line say? after default [04:15] master_> should be a number there [04:15] smil3y: ??? was that very bad i asked? [04:15] How can I get Glest to play in a window [04:15] How do you get it so when you install Packages the files go onto my external hard drive? [04:15] smily3: its my log in again my default shows cpc2-hers3-0-0 etc [04:16] optimizer, ftp is the file transfer protocol, you can't really diff files on an ftp server, you should use version control, or hash your files and ssh access. [04:16] abhilashm86> i just had no idea what you said, ask a question that is decipherable [04:16] smily3: 86.18.248.0 * 255.255.252.0 U 1 0 0 eth0 [04:16] default cpc2-hers3-0-0- 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 [04:16] sorry all [04:16] smil3y:that external ip, how to get via command line? any command [04:17] master__> that ip address you just gave 86.18.248.0 should be your gateway on your router [04:17] abhilashm86> no way [04:18] scunizi: I think I got it [04:18] gralco: good [04:18] So i need to chnge my gateway to that ip once i connect again to my router? [04:18] smil3y: please see this thread in ubuntuforums, i asked there, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8030318#post8030318 [04:18] master__> yes [04:18] abhilashm86> i dont use forums [04:19] okay ill read....thankyou i shall attempt...I would love you to join the site i am creating if you dont mind me asking [04:19] smil3y: master__ that looks like an external ip assigned by the ISP.. not the gateway address.. that's typically in the same subnet at the lan IP's.. ie. 192.168.###.### [04:19] smil3y, there is no way an IP address with 0 at the end is a valid address on a class C subnet, it's probably .1 or .254 [04:20] ???? should i not scunizi...durt [04:20] whats better shiretoko or ubufox? === mac9416 is now known as TheFatLady [04:20] Dhuski, they're different things === TheFatLady is now known as mac9416 [04:20] scunizi> yeah i asked him to give me the output of route, the default should be his gateway, i have no way of knowing if he gave me the right one or not [04:20] Exodus, which one do you recommend i use? [04:21] smil3y: ok fine!! so i need to use external ip address that website gave to locate and login for other users!! [04:21] Dhuski, shiretoko is firefox 3.5, ubufox is something that is added to firefox to make it more compatible with ubuntu [04:21] smil3y: did you get his subnet?.. if so it's probably just 192.168.1.1 for the gateway [04:21] Dhuski, every firefox release has a codename. "shiretoko" is firefox 3.5's codename. [04:22] Dhuski, you should have both installed [04:22] scunizi...smily3: I ran route in terminal and got...Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface [04:22] 86.18.248.0 * 255.255.252.0 U 1 0 0 eth0 [04:22] default cpc2-hers3-0-0- 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 [04:22] scunizi> nope, i had hime disconnect his router and connect to modem directly === nick is now known as Guest1094 [04:22] Exodus, thanks... [04:22] Dhuski, np [04:22] smil3y: ah.. then the modem gateway will be similar [04:23] scunizi> now hes not getting an ip for default hes just getting his isp name [04:23] scunizi> but he can connect to his website now [04:23] smil3y: is this dsl? pppoe? [04:23] !flood > master__ [04:23] master__, please see my private message [04:24] master__, why do you have 255.255.252.0 as a netmask? [04:24] scunizi> no idea, didnt ask, hes got router problems, most likelt screwed with settings and now has dns issues [04:24] www.linuxossolutions.com can connect through my modem...but not through my router with my wireless.. [04:24] durt, a lot of isp's configure your netmask that way [04:24] smil3y: easily fixed with a hard reset of the router [04:25] smil3y: can you give link for network basics in linux? ssh and tools..... [04:25] master__> i would reset to default all your router settings, turn everything off, connect router, and retry to connet to your site [04:25] all: i have done a hard reset twice [04:25] abhilashm86> just google, its easier that way [04:25] smily3: it works for a hour then bang gone again [04:26] durt: I didnt understand [04:26] Exodus, yes, that's my point, if it is set by the ISP no prob, if he set it manually then there's a prob. [04:26] master__> does that bring router back to factory default? [04:26] smil3y:it can give lots, thought u would give what u refereed:) fine i'l do that, thanks a lot......... [04:26] master__> have you messed with *any* settings on it? prior to having problems? [04:27] durt, probably. Although i'm not following his problem, too far in the chat history so i wouldn't know really :) [04:27] smily3: it does but i cant run the virgin exe file through wine and struggle to get it set up [04:27] Exodus, ditto [04:27] master__> what router is it? ?

[04:42] umeaboy1: sorry [04:42] magikid: Is that setting persistent? [04:42] oh yes the KARMIC is it good [04:42] magikid: or do I need to restart synclient in some way each session? [04:42] okay, so i guess this 3.04 version needs to be updated to 3.5 or greater? [04:42] Maxwell_, well if you get more info maybe that will jog someones memory, but for now nobody knows, ask again in 5 [04:42] ive been on ubuntu for a year and a half ..love the problems and people that help [04:42] nosra - yes [04:43] edlang, what company manufactured your computer? It doesn't help you some how that I know this, but I have a Dell and it uses Synaptic... they aren't bad touchpads but they are annoying [04:43] now, my next question is how do i do that? i've apt-get update & upgrade and it never seems to upgrade the firefox? [04:43] hi, i accidently broke my sources.list and i can't seem to remember where it's at [04:43] edlang: What setting?

[04:44] nossralsuva - try this: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 [04:44] magikid: the one that's equivalent to synclient TouchpadOff=1 [04:44] im going to upgrade to KARMIC now what were the keys again [04:44] magikid: however, about thirty seconds after I exit gsynaptics, the trackpad is enabled again [04:45] Umeaboy1: i forgot what I was asked so is Karmic fun... [04:45] nossralsuva, are you using 8.04.3 as a limited support? Because if you are I think that maybe be the factor... [04:45] Bluey: it could not find the packager, error [04:45] edlang: For me, it's always been persistent. [04:45] hmmm [04:46] master__: Define fun, please. [04:46] prappl93: it is the 8.0.4LTS [04:46] uMEABOY [04:46] nossralsuva, it won't update it then if it is LTS I believe [04:46] prappl93: should i move and go to 9.04 then? [04:46] anyone know why Gparted Live CD, wont let me me resize /dev/sda1 (linux boot) to full size of disk [04:47] nossralsuva, If you want to. I would probably do that.

[04:54] it wont let me make the 40gb partion any bigger [04:54] nossralsuva -- only bad thing about SuSE -- zypper == otherwise really like it - still on a couple of my systems [04:54] Leaf its not folllowers i want its a site dedicated to linux....it for myself even but thanks for the link [04:54] Bluey: i like the debian world it is nice [04:55] just plugged a router in and I am unable to talk to it on address http//:192.168.1.1 [04:55] TNA5000: when you open the rsize window the maximum size is the same as the partion size (even tho I have 150Gb in unallocated) [04:55] nossralsuva -- mixed -- ubuntu makes me install a lot of programmes, that SuSE didn't [04:55] Ican talk through it and ping another computer and get on to the internet ok [04:55] Ali_nz: what's the question again? [04:55] Ali_nz: you have to make sure the extra space is there and not partitioned and it is also beside the partition you want to expand [04:56] ok, its not next to the partion [04:56] how would i fix that [04:56] nossralsuva -- most frustrating thing about ubuntu -- I spent 6 months off and on, trying to get my scanner working -- worked fine first time in SuSE -- not so with ubuntu [04:57] Bluey: yeah this firefox thing just drove me a bit batty [04:57] Bluey: so far i've stuck w/ HP products because of their compatibility w/ linux [04:57] Bluey: so i avoided those problems early on [04:57] im upgrading ...so my router cant be changed then as smily3 was saying [04:58] mossralsuva -- It's an HP printer, with an HP computer...

[06:28] well i think you can create another vhd and atach that to your virtual machine as another hdd [06:29] or get rid of your current vm and create the new hdd of your size and reinstall xp on that [06:29] is there like a force cd eject [06:30] ic3: i tried that but windows didn't reconize the 2nd drive [06:30] ah ok [06:30] force cd eject? [06:31] dg1 -- yes it's called a paper clip [06:31] do you no how to get into xp's partition manager? [06:32] ic3: no [06:32] im on 9.04, clean install. i have a XFS volume using LVM on 3 new sata drives. My CPU use for smbd seems high and the system is a bit sluggish, is this normal when copying at ~40mb/s over gigabit ethernet (pci card)? [06:32] not of the top of my head -- I'd try start/control panel [06:32] i think it's in administrative functions of something like that [06:33] rite click my computer and click manage [06:33] sob [06:33] how do I resize /dev/sda2 that currently has an LVM on it? [06:33] thanks ic3 -- I know there had to be an easier way... [06:33] then when that comes up click Disk Management on the left [06:33] ah, sudo umount -l /dev/scd0 [06:34] Why is it that if I select "no theme" for my GDM login screen I am not allowed to auto-login myself but if I use the Ubuntu -human theme I can auto login? [06:34] that that shows what disks there are [06:34] hello i have a question with yahoo email === __venom__ is now known as _venom_ [06:34] chrissy_: please, just ask it [06:34] /msg nickserv identify k.s.g.123 [06:34] installing halflife 2, couldnt get the cd to open for the second disc [06:34] u may need to format the disk u attached to the vm thats why xp may not see it it in my computer [06:34] paipimenta http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_lvm_p2 [06:34] sim-value: nice password choice [06:35] gnea - been there, done that! [06:35] liquidrid: promising... howtoforge is generally good stuff, I've been through a lot of sites on this, let me tell you [06:35] hello [06:35] LOL [06:35] Bluey: you.. used the same password? ;) [06:35] HELP!!!!! [06:35] no [06:35] !helpme | Bobarrik [06:35] Bobarrik: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience [06:35] anyone want to train me with ubuntu? [06:35] but I've had my id show up in channel [06:35] but rather bad. client [06:35] ic3: found the new drive but not sure how 2 format it [06:35] switchgirl: Train you? [06:35] switchgirl: just install it and use it. [06:35] Bobarrik: What's wrong? [06:35] wow, that hurt [06:35] switchgirl: there, training done. [06:35] How does GNOME call a modification (addition) of an applet symbol (for example in the form of a tilted white cross in a small red square) at the lower right? [06:36] guys i just downloaded 64bit iso of ubuntu server, it says amd64, is it ok to install on intel xeon? [06:36] anyway [06:36] !ask | Bobarrik [06:36] Bobarrik: 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. :-) [06:36] why are bots yelling at me [06:36] ok i can recieve email but when i check my the ones i have sent to my home computer it does not go through [06:36] anyone want to train me with ubuntu? so i can get a job tech support and help myself out of my joblessness [06:36] Bobarrik: please, follow channel guidelines to get help. [06:36] switchgirl - best way - RTFM [06:36] should just be able to rite click it and click format [06:37] switchgirl: that's not what we do here. however, if you'd like to stick around, we can help answer your questions, and perhaps you can help answer other people's questions. [06:37] How do I apt-get install a local package? [06:37] howitzer`: sudo dpkg -i file.deb [06:37] I have a Dell Inspiron 1100 laptop and a wireless g WPC54G. Using the Windows Wireless Drivers Application, I was able to install what I believe are the correct drivers, but I'm still unable to make a connection to my local wireless. What am I doing wrong? [06:37] Gnea: i know just thought i'd ask.... [06:38] sure, Switchgirl. Lets start with getting a webcam to work in Ubuntu. [06:38] switchgirl: if you know, why ask? [06:38] Gnea: But that doesn't resolve dependencies? [06:38] so can anybody tell what i am doing wrong [06:38] wine eject d: [06:38] howitzer`: no, but it tells you what dependencies it needs, which you can easily search for and install [06:38] Gnea: if you dont ask you shall never know [06:38] dannnn: Did you ask about amd64 ? [06:39] chrissy_: have no idea what your email setup consists of, so not sure what email you're referring to [06:39] switchgirl: good point [06:39] i have yahoo [06:39] Gnea: Is there no way to have that done automatically somehow with apt-get or something? [06:39] liquidrid: didn't find that on page 2..... I want to resize the disk partition on which the LVM is contained [06:40] Hi, I'm looking for how-to help to access my old 2.5" drive that is now in an external case and is connected via usb [06:40] I already resized the logical volumes, volume group, and physical volume, but the fdisk partition /dev/sda2 still reads at ~59G, which I need to be 25G [06:40] ic3: thx 4 the help it's formatting now [06:40] chrissy_: okay, so it's a web-based email, that anyone on any operating system can use - how is this ubuntu-related, other than you're using ubuntu as your os? [06:40] no probs glad to help [06:41] how I can know what mobo I have easily :O? [06:41] what do you take when your constapated [06:41] If this is the wrong place to ask, can you tell me where to go? [06:41] well im off ppl mite be back later [06:41] byeeeeeeeee [06:41] Now let's enlarge media from 1GB to 1.5GB: [06:41] lvextend -L1.5G /dev/fileserver/media [06:41] i would compose a email in yahoo and send itough it said it did [06:41] switchgirl: I guess it depends what your current level of knowledge of computers, in general, is, and what you already know about Ubuntu [06:42] paipimenta did you see the part about `lvextend` [06:42] chrissy_: so are you trying to send/recieve via thunderbird or something? [06:42] doug9_: Good luck getting help with that! This isn't a bad place unless you're using an OS other than ubuntu [06:43] i can group commands and do basic things but dont understand why the commands work or how [06:43] paipimenta this page has more details http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_lvm_p4 [06:43] Why is it that if I select "no theme" for my GDM login screen I am not allowed to auto-login myself but if I use the Ubuntu -human theme I can auto login? [06:43] switchgirl: have you ever used any other distribution other than Ubuntu? [06:43] no through yahoo i am trying to send through [06:43] lvreduce won't affect what I see when I run fdisk [06:43] edbian: yes this is 9.04 [06:43] i couldnt get thunderbird setup [06:43] not knowingly Gnea [06:44] Hi there! I have a huge problem!!!! Accidentally I start formating my hard disk ntfs as fat32 [06:44] doug9_: Then you're in the right place. That's just such an old medium. I don't know if you can find anybody to help you :/ [06:44] Partition: { /dev/sda1} Partition: { /dev/sda2 [VG (LV)(LV)(LV) ] e m p t y s p a c e } [06:44] I cancel almost inmediatly, but now I can't start this one [06:44] doug9_: what did you want again? [06:44] switchgirl: I suggest installing other distros and playing around with those, get a feel for how the source code compiles and is linked through the system shared libraries [06:45] paipimenta im sorry, that's about the extent of what i know about lvm [06:45] Gnea: switchgirl: No offense but I think sending a complete novice into the linux world is a terrible idea. [06:45] Old medium? It's 2.5" hard drive from a laptop. Have I been hit on the head and been asleep ? [06:45] switchgirl: I'd just stick with ubuntu for a while and mess with that. [06:45] found a link to this though http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_resizing_ext3_partitions [06:45] switchgirl: use Slackware for a month and you'll gain a lot of Linux knowledge... [06:45] edbian: why? [06:45] doug9_: when you plug into your machine Ubuntu doesn't automatically recognize it? You said you were using an USB converter for it? [06:45] edbian: better than starving [06:45] doug9_: OOO! I thought you meant those old big floppy disks lol [06:46] edbian: it's perfect. worked for me. [06:46] switchgirl: Good luck then! :) As long as you're up to it. Many people think Linux has a steep learning curve [06:47] doug9_: PM me the output of "sudo fdisk -l" with the drive plugged in [06:47] edbian: i really need basics so i can get into college [06:47] switchgirl: What college requires you know the basics of linux? Can I attend? [06:48] The laptop is using 80GB. The one I can't see into (but was working before the mother board died) is a 120GB, now in an external case with a USB connection to the ThinkPad [06:49] doug9_: PM me the output of "sudo fdisk -l" [06:49] how I can know what mobo I have easily :O? [06:50] edbain: what does fdisk -l do? [06:50] doug9_: Shows all of the storage media connected to your computer right now [06:51] even those that are not mounted yet [06:51] I have a Dell Inspiron 1100 laptop and a wireless g WPC54G. Using the Windows Wireless Drivers Application, I was able to install what I believe are the correct drivers, but I'm still unable to make a connection to my local wireless. What am I doing wrong? [06:52] doug9_: Are you there? [06:53] I'm here. I'm reading about what fdisk does [06:53] o ok [06:53] :) [06:53] doug9_: It's mostly used for partitioning but "fdisk -l" simply "lists all partitions" [06:54] Bobarrik: have you checked the linux laptop page to see if a solution exists already? [06:55] no, I have not. Can I have a link to there? [06:55] !laptops [06:55] Laptop support information can be found on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops - http://www.linux-laptop.net/ - http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam - http://tuxmobil.org === adeodatus is now known as aigon [06:55] !help [06:55] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily).

[06:56] hey guize! Is there a program that I can use in bash to merge two directories? [06:56] recursively I mean [06:57] edbain [06:58] doug9_: is that the name of a program? [06:58] I've been trying to use a USBasp programmer with little success. When using AVRdude, it fails saying that it cannot find USB device USBasp. Using lsusb, the device is also not listed, is there something I'm missing to get it to work? I'm a complete noob, so sorry if the question is stupid. [06:58] looking for edbain [06:58] So, Need help, How can I recover my hard disk that start formating as fat32 and is ntfs? [06:58] Hilariousity: what do you mean "merge two directories recursively?" [06:58] edbian http://www.stevenson.ac.uk/courses/course/hnc-computing/?fs=1 [06:58] Why is it that if I select "no theme" for my GDM login screen I am not allowed to auto-login myself but if I use the Ubuntu -human theme I can auto login? [06:59] thanks swithchgirl === dangerx is now known as heavybrow [06:59] hey man [06:59] i got a doubt [07:00] harisund I mean put all the files and subdirectories of two directories and move them into one directory [07:00] how do i desinstall ubuntu and install linux? [07:00] I can't copy and paste because some subdirectories within the two directories have the same name [07:00] Hilariousity: can't you just use a bunch of mv commands? [07:00] 你们能说中文吗 [07:01] Hilariousity: do you want every file in one directory ? [07:01] yes sur [07:01] one sec [07:01] fuck you [07:01] !DigitalKiwi [07:01] Sorry, I don't know anything about DigitalKiwi [07:02] find $source -type f -exec cp \{\} $dest/ \; [07:02] heavybrow: ubuntu is a variant of linux [07:02] how can i use linux meke kernel more new [07:03] I am listeing [07:03] wow the find command has alot more functions then I ever thought [07:04] heavybrow, linux is the kernel .. ubuntu is a distro based on it .. more like based on debian which is based on linux anyway .. [07:04] where are you come from? [07:04] None of the pages given about laptops helped with my wireless problem... they all were about compatability and from what I have read, Jaunty works quite well with an Inspiron 1100. Can I have help with making my wireless work? [07:04] how to get into a hard drive that is jumpered as slave and is as an external usb? [07:05] so you can pull the hard drive [07:05] GreyGhost: humm [07:05] GreyGhost: and how do i install distro ubuntu on the windows xp kernel? [07:05] heavybrow: ubuntu can only use the linux kernel [07:06] heavybrow, err .. whtat do u mean by "on" ? [07:06] heavybrow: and the windows xp kernel only works with xp [07:06] giggle [07:06] that has to be the best question ever [07:06] lstarnes GreyGhost it's bad [07:07] lstarnes GreyGhost and how do i install xp distro on linux kernel? [07:07] oh no [07:07] heavybrow: windows xp is not a distribution [07:07] heavybrow: it is a full OS [07:07] heavybrow: the term "distrubution" only applies to different variants of linux [07:07] yes you are right that's full os [07:07] heavybrow, wt exactly are ur intentions of doing somethng like that? u can use XP in a vm in ubuntu (check virtualbox qemu vmwae) .. and vice versa [07:08] lstarnes: is there a way to install ubuntu on freebsd kernel? [07:08] trolling... [07:08] heavybrow: no [07:08] GreyGhost: i wanna try to use linux [07:08] heavybrow, err.. if u mean the GUI by saying "install ubuntu" .. i think u can get GNOME for FreeBSD [07:08] heavybrow: it only works on the linux kernel [07:08] actually... [07:08] GreyGhost: but i know xp is better than that [07:08] heavybrow, then start using ubuntu .. it IS linux .. [07:08] hey guys, i just apt-get zsh, how do i make zsh my default shell now? so that everytime i login it uses it instead of bash? [07:09] GreyGhost: most applications that work on linux work on other unix-like operating systems [07:09] you could theoretically take the freebsd kernel and substituted an ubuntu like userland for it [07:09] lstarnes, i knw :) [07:09] there is an arch linux project to do that for arch/freebsd [07:09] GreyGhost: is ubuntu better than xp? [07:09] I'm pretty sure Heavybrow is just trolling you guys. [07:09] banisterfiend: try chsh -s $(which zsh) [07:09] alright, let's try this with a non-LVM partition.... I want to resize /dev/sda1 from 194M to 50M [07:09] Nachturnal: ?? [07:09] err netbsd, sorry [07:09] xp is xp linux is linux that they are different concepts, ideas, do you understand? [07:09] heavybrow, depends on what u do .. n wt u find "better" [07:10] banisterfiend: chsh [07:10] !search category.php?cid= [07:10] Found: [07:10] Searching [07:10] Search [07:10] Here [07:10] _____________________________________________________ [07:10] Type [07:10] ZoneAdmin: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:10] GreyGhost: on xp, i can play counter strike [07:10] DigitalKiwi: do i need to sudo that? [07:10] i am not able to hear sound from my laptop speakers [07:10] probably [07:10] Anyone here who ever toyed with openqrm? [07:10] anyone [07:10] heavybrow, u can play that in WINE under linux i think .. bt mind u linux is not gaming centered OS .. [07:10] GreyGhost: then, linux is bad [07:11] :/ [07:11] I have a dvd that my wife wants me to copy.. it's a few short videos.. she uses for training.. the disc reads JUST FINE in her MacBook, but in my linux box, the disc appears EMPTY.. why? [07:11] lol heavybrow [07:11] heavybrow: that's just your opinion [07:11] lstarnes, DigitalKiwi: thx [07:11] there are tons of games for linux, and a ton of games work in wine [07:11] I hear XBox is popular for PowerPoint [07:11] hummm [07:11] thanks, men [07:11] flippo: giggle [07:11] bye [07:11] GreyGhost, but isn't gaming improving on linux? [07:11] heavybrow: Windows isn't a gaming centered OS either.. it just happen to be there DirectX is and which developers mainly make games for. [07:11] heavybrow, err saying that infront of 1279 ppl in a linux channel proves that u should stick to xp and NOT say linux is bad [07:11] DigitalKiwi, lstarnes: it didn't work though :( when i exited and created a new shell, it went back to using bash :( [07:12] sanchiro, is the dvd encrypted [07:12] did you login and out? [07:12] Question I have is went back to Alsa in Ubuntu Jaunty and my microphone is really low, but I have capture, microphone boost..and microphone all turned up full blast yet it sounds like i am whispering into the microphone..any ideas? [07:12] Besides.. I've run both WoW and EVE with higher FPS under Linux than it did in Windows, or the exact same machine. [07:12] DigitalKiwi: i closed the terminal and then loaded a new terminal [07:12] err logout and back in [07:12] sanchiro, it is improving .. if the commercial game devs created native apps for linux and stuck to OpenGL it wld be on par to windows [07:12] Seriously, you guys are being trolled. Heavybrow is playing you, and probably getting great enjoyment from it. [07:12] stlsaint, I don't think it is.. it's not a commercially produced dvd.. just one personally recorded.. [07:12] banisterfiend: log out then log in again [07:12] OpenGL unfortunately lacks quite a bit to match DirectX 10/11 :( [07:12] wine is the interface between linux and windows xp [07:13] lstarnes: ok ill try, thanks [07:13] emulator *\ [07:13] guoxiaolong: it doesn't interface with windows at all [07:13] sanchiro, what distro you using? [07:13] GreyGhost, Are you familiar with www.supergamer.org? I just downloaded their big .iso file.. which supposedly has all natively coded linux games.. [07:13] stlsaint, ubuntu 9.04 [07:13] Pipeline [07:13] guoxiaolong: it implements windows interfaces for windows applications running on linux [07:13] I think whats needed to be able to compete with Windows is a whole new replacement for DirectX and OpenGL and so on.. something that enables simulatanious compatibility on both Windows, Linux and Mac, without making the development process much harder [07:13] sanchiro, nope .. i dnt rly lay too many games .. [07:13] i got problems with apache on my windows xp [07:14] do you have mediubuntu enabled [07:14] sanchiro, ^^ [07:14] buguntu [07:14] !wine | guoxiaolong [07:14] guoxiaolong: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [07:14] yes i know [07:14] !windows | heavybrow [07:14] heavybrow: For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents [07:15] stlsaint, what is mediubuntu?

For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega [07:15] but i think Not all can find in the linux into a simulated [07:15] !medibuntu > sanchiro [07:15] sanchiro, please see my private message [07:15] hey all [07:16] why are chinese ip's bruteforcing my ssh port? [07:16] DigitalKiwi: Yes.. but the problem still is that it doesn't match DirectX in regards of features/functionality + as far as I know.. Microsoft have fairly heavy SDK support for game development companies [07:16] your private message is dust [07:16] areay: are you on default port 22? [07:17] DigitalKiwi, yea [07:17] DigitalKiwi: So basically.. if it requires less to make a game in DirectX that provides better functionality/features for the developers... then they stick to DirectX... why use OpenGL if it complicates the development process and also doesn't make it as good a product. [07:17] :) thanks guys [07:17] I'm trying to change the resolution of my ubuntu computer because it is hooked up to a monitor with a lower max resolution than what it's currently set to. I know how to access the command line (ctl+alt+f2) and i've tried using xrandr, but it says "can't open the display". what should i do? [07:17] one more q, how do i change the name of my system? [07:17] do a few things...not really a problem on ubuntu but don't allow root login if you use something other than that ever, change port, set up something like denyhosts [07:17] !hostname | banisterfiend [07:17] banisterfiend: Use hostname to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at System > Administration > Networking on the "General" tab [07:18] DigitalKiwi, can't i get them back in some way... i feel violated [07:18] you can use sudo su i think [07:18] sort of similar [07:18] eepberries: sudo -i, not sudo su [07:18] '~@‘π±≠][¡“§£∞¶[]≠≠±~‘ö@–·‚µµµµ≤≤≤/=*- [07:18] Oops [07:18] o [07:18] wrong window [07:18] allanmelsen: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:19] was looking for the pipe key on my mac keyboard.. can't find it.. heh [07:19] can't really think of anything you could do to them [07:19] so do any of you know how to fix my resolution problem? [07:19] !openqrm [07:19] Sorry, I don't know anything about openqrm [07:19] darn [07:19] stlsaint, so installing mediubuntu will allow , or may allow me to read that disc? [07:19] Anyone here who have experimented/used OpenQRM on Ubuntu? [07:20] eepberries: when you're using the tty (Alt+F1 etc) you have to specify for x programs which display you want to work with [07:20] On one occasion, I did not compile successfully compile time, suggesting a lack of GCC [07:20] guoxiaolong: make sure that you had build-essential [07:20] sanchiro, yes...see here for help.... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu [07:20] DigitalKiwi, it's probably windows malware of some kind anyway... i doubt a random chinese person decided to randomly type my ip address in, and i don't have any enemies in china (that i know of) [07:20] i tried using "xrandr --screen 0" but that didn't work. it still said it couldn't find the screen [07:20] it's pretty common, areay [07:21] eepberries: so if you just run, for example, gedit it will fail to start because it doesn't know where to run.. you'll have to do something like "DISPLAY=.0.0 gedit" that will tell gedit to use the display numbered .0.0 (which should be the default display [07:21] I had that problem a while ago, changing port stopped most of them since they usually don't bother port scanning, I also setup denyhosts which is nice [07:21] eepberries: sorry.. it's "DISPLAY=:0.0 gedit" ... semicolon instead of a dot [07:22] slart: it says "Can't open display :0.0". i had tried that before [07:22] damn chinese... [07:22] question~ any fsck for ntfs ? i got boot msg saying fsck.ntsf not found ~ how to fix that? [07:22] actually, it says "Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE~1 keyCan't open display :0.0" specifically [07:23] areay: can you vent this anger of an entire (pretty large) country in the ot-channel instead? it's not really appropriate there either but it's better than doing it here [07:23] Elone: nope.. there is ntfsfix but that's not really a fsck [07:24] those blasted israelites [07:24] woo hoo just talked sparkie (australia) through a ubuntu install - success! [07:24] lol [07:24] eepberries: hmm.. then I don't really know what is wrong, sorry [07:24] :( [07:24] you put the disk in, it installs, this needs walkthrough why? [07:25] is there anyway to have the x serv or whatever revert to a safe mode [07:25] so i can fix it somehow [07:25] sorry Slart, and any other chinese people that were offended by my comments [07:25] ;) [07:25] hey cuties, the 'time' displayed in my zsh is wrong, how do i fix it? [07:25] i just need to get ubuntu working in a lower resolution. i can work my way up from there [07:26] banisterfiend: how do you mean it is wrong? [07:26] DigitalKiwi: it's saying that it's 2:24pm but it's 7:24pm (where i live) [07:26] DigitalKiwi: my desktop clock is correct, but the zsh one is wrong [07:27] oh, probably some timezone setting in your .zshrc? [07:27] DigitalKiwi: ok thx bb [07:27] so is there any sort of xserver low res safe mode i can run? [07:27] I often use linux to visit pornographic sites, but is not toxic [07:27] im doing a multy disc install of halflife and i cant get the first disc unmounted even though its out of my cd drive! [07:28] DigitalKiwi: so zsh doesn't have the multi-tude of config files like bash does? it just has .zshrc it doesnt' have .zsh_profile etc? [07:28] yeah i'm pretty fond of the man on man sites [07:28] !ot > guoxiaolong [07:28] guoxiaolong, please see my private message [07:28] yo [07:28] perrrrrrsone ? [07:28] nul [07:28] !fr | benjamin31 [07:28] benjamin31: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr === superman is now known as Guest65016 [07:29] Hey guys, I'm not a Linux user. But I wanted to know some info on the advantages of using linux. Not for the sake of argument.. but for my information to make certain choices [07:29] Beyond the fact that it's free of course [07:29] Ipsilon: /join #ubuntu-offtopic . better place to ask [07:29] it probably has a .zshrc and a .zhistory or something (depends on your config file iirc) [07:29] k thanx [07:29] Ipsilon: it's a nicer environement for a programmer, all the tools are free, they're high quality, and they're very easy to setup and use (with apt-get etc) [07:30] some things are very, very easy to do on linux if there is a premade package for what you're looking for [07:30] other things in linux make it a somewhat horrific experience [07:30] it's extremely hit or miss [07:30] I was mostly wondering about advantages in terms of media playing and more user-oriented stuff [07:30] i'm not a programmer :P [07:30] that isn't really the point of linux, sorry [07:30] the "year of linux on the desktop" will probably never come [07:31] hey room [07:31] anyone know why software available in the alternate installer compared to the normal DVD install disc would be reduced? [07:31] Ipsilon: maybe if you use linux you'd become a programmer!!!!!!! :P === onchoe is now known as ce_zha [07:31] i.e. all repositories seem there, added mediabuntu [07:31] maybe :/ [07:31] Ipsilon: if you do become a programmer, choose ruby, python's overrated ;) [07:31] but can't find apps such as vlc in synaptic, just turns up blank although other more basic stuff is there [07:31] Ipsilon: I agree, Linux can be difficult for new users, but even non-programmers find it useful [07:31] Guest58270: make sure you're typing the right package name [07:31] banisterfiend: sed s/programmer/web\ developer FTFY [07:32] sometimes you'll have to google for the actual name (it's probably something like vlc-player or vlc56.29.3397u459;.l2u35roiyh) [07:32] who in the hell knows [07:32] Ipsilon: At office, I'm the only programmer, but everyone else who uses Ubuntu loves it [07:32] the one other person is everyone else ;) [07:32] does anybody here know how to tell my X server which volume controller to bind my volume keys to? [07:32] yeah, but my query would be mostly oriented towards whether or not have a dual-boot thing going [07:33] I does not go into hell, who is hell [07:33] i can't get it to control pulseaudio master for the life of me... === onchoe is now known as ce_zhha [07:33] mgmuscari: ruby is for more than just web dev :) though unfortunately the web kiddies have slightly polluted ppl's opinion of ruby [07:33] sanchiro, any success? === ce_zhha is now known as ce_zha [07:33] how do you get all available software showing in synaptic? [07:33] yuck ruby [07:33] Ipsilon: keep the dual boot. most machines at my workplace have only about 30GB harddisk space. I've made a small Windows partition (5GB) and the rest for Ubuntu [07:33] java is pretty much as high-level as i go when it comes to programming languages [07:33] my software sources has all the repositories ticked [07:34] Guest58270: are you trying to add programs through the GUI or command line [07:34] DigitalKiwi: exactly :) you wouldn't say 'yuck ruby' if it wasn't for hipster ruby fanboys sitting in starbucks writing their web apps on mac book pros :/ [07:34] I don't have ubuntu. The decision was wether or not to create a linux partition. [07:34] command line [07:34] i find that the gui seems to be missing alot of things for some reason. that or they're impossible to find [07:34] although, i'll concede that i haven't looked very hard at ruby. its reputation precedes it though === Guest94048 is now known as seidos [07:34] i find it hard to believe that i'd find ruby suitable for research purposes [07:35] Guest58270: what package are you looking for specifically [07:35] My advice Ipsilon, try it out. If you give yourself time with Linux, I think you'll begin to enjoy it. And if you're new to Linux, start with Ubuntu - it's one of the easiest distros to use [07:35] ruby is dust [07:35] mgmuscari: you probably wouldn't. it's not for that kind of application [07:35] banisterfiend: it's slow, bloated, I don't like it's syntax, the fanboys are only part of it [07:35] guoxiaolong: haha why's that? [07:35] * mgmuscari is thinking about writing a perl script to do nightly incremental backups of /home and various config files after this past week's filesystem meltdown. who votes yes? [07:35] hmmm I can install software at the command line e.g. install vlc but it doesn't show in Synaptic [07:36] Guest58270: that's just kind of the way it is, i think [07:36] yes you are ok [07:36] the GUI synaptic is dumb [07:36] i should add that i'm referring to my own personal filesystem meltdown [07:36] Is the CD boot really going to show me the OS.. or should I keep my opinion until I have it in a harddrive? [07:36] i don't even look at the package manager gui anymore because i've never actually found what i was looking for in it [07:36] Ipsilon: it will probably run slower from cd [07:36] so how else do you search for software if you don't know the name [07:36] google :) [07:36] i can make filesystem in it [07:36] banisterfiend: I don't like python either if that's any consolation [07:36] Ipsilon, yes it does. A Live Demo works very well if you have at least 512 MB RAM. [07:36] DigitalKiwi: (1) 1.9.1 is not slow (it's comparable to python in benchmarks). (2) The syntax some people like, other people do not. personally i prefer it to python's syntax that i find littered with underscores and 'self'. [07:36] actually you can search the ubuntu man pages i think [07:36] Ipsilon: I just ran it from the cd, and it does show the whole OS.. but it doesnt save any of ur options obviously, and just runs a tid slower from CD [07:37] the ubuntu page should list all available packages [07:37] somewhere anyway [07:37] DigitalKiwi: so which language do you use? [07:37] Affair is not never asked Baidu, foreign affairs is not never ask Google [07:37] Lua/C/C++ [07:37] avishek: Ipsilon will probably find that running certain commands for the first time on a live demo will cause the cd drive to spin up as it loads it into mem [07:37] mostly Lua [07:37] c/c++/java/perl here [07:38] Ipsilon, take mgmuscari's advice [07:38] stlsaint, thanks a bunch.. that's what I needed...;) [07:38] but once they're in ram, things should work normally :) [07:38] stlsaint, this is why I LOVE linux.. ;) [07:38] DigitalKiwi: lua is nice and clean, but a bit *too* simple imo. I like the functional programming and sophisticated OO of ruby. It's a very expressive language. But it's true, if i were to choose a language for embedding in a c++/c app, i'd probably choose Lua [07:38] who can use chinese lugguess [07:38] help!! FB application chat rooms Audio&video Ubuntu remix aspireone ZG5 !!! Dont work !!! [07:38] Ipsilon, but I would say try out a Wubi install - install Ubuntu into Windows just like any application. what do you think mgmuscari? [07:38] mgmuscari: c/c++/ruby/clojure here [07:38] is there any way to see if xserver is working at all without having logged in graphically? i'm just trying to figure out if anything graphical is working. [07:38] Ipsilon: you also won't be able to install all kinds of neato packages using a live cd [07:38] which come from china [07:39] except me [07:39] the problem is that my ubuntu computer is only hooked up to a tv via s-video, and i'm wondering if ubuntu is recognizing that at all and thinks there aren't any graphical displays [07:39] sanchiro, np..glad to be of help [07:39] Well, first I need to check out the core OS.

[07:39] eepberries: if you want to configure displays manually, you need to go into /etc/X11/xorg.conf [07:40] ok i know but i know English [07:40] external [07:40] mgmuscari: umm...the arguments you were using against ruby possibly apply even stronger against perl. Ruby has alot of perl's spirit, but with a nicer syntax. alot of ex-perlers really like ruby [07:40] Ipsilon: running it in a virtual machine would be a good way to try it out [07:40] i've been searching around online but can't find a clear explanation of the difference between the proposed and the backports repositories [07:40] q6600, 8800gt, 4gb ram, 7200rpm harddrive [07:40] mgmuscari: i'm looked in there but i don't see anything relating to monitors or displays. it's actually strange [07:40] vmware? [07:40] mgmuscari: true, but since most of my machines are antiquated rustbuckets with less than 256 MB RAM, I get into the habit of downsizing [07:40] :) [07:40] banisterfiend: i only use perl for trivial scripting, but yeah, i mostly just haven't looked at ruby [07:40] is one generall better tested, more stable; is one generally more recent versions? [07:40] how to get information about my network in terminal [07:40] i just look for some one that as me [07:40] banisterfiend: i think my conception of ruby is based on pages about ruby on rails that stumbleupon always throws up at me [07:41] Help facebook application Chat rooms Mix&webcam dont work aspireone ZG5 !!! [07:41] meh i prefer cobol on rails [07:41] Ipsilon, a Live Session looks very plain and dull, so don't get the incorrect impression. [07:41] what's a superblock? [07:41] paipimenta: it's like a master file table or MFT [07:41] paipimenta: uh oh, filesystem trouble? [07:41] mgmuscari: here's just a taste, this is how you iterate over a list over numbers 0..10 in ruby: (0..10).each { |v| puts v } (outputs numbers 0 through 10) [07:41] if detected early, cobol can be cured. give to the american cobol society. [07:41] so should I go for wubi? [07:41] You can "dress" up ubuntu very nicely by installing the relevant packages [07:42] Ipsilon, yes, I think so [07:42] the superblock stores metadata about the partition [07:42] mgmuscari: it has an incredibly light-weight lambda syntax that is used almost everywhere for really really concise code [07:42] (anyway bbl) [07:42] no.... trying to resize a partition that an LVM is on [07:42] banisterfiend: i might be persuaded to look at it some time... for now i'll stick to jsp when i do webapps [07:42] I've given up, I'm using http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_resizing_ext3_partitions [07:42] Ipsilon: it'll run slightly slower, but not noticeably so if you have about 512 MB RAM [07:42] and c++ or java when i do anything else, basically [07:42] 4gb [07:43] Who watched the National Day parade [07:43] paipimenta: i resized an ext4 partition the other day, which was an extended partition [07:43] i tried e2fsck /dev/sda2 from BusyBox, and it gave me a resource busy error [07:43] pleese [07:43] better question: who watched the moon last night? [07:43] No worries then Ipsilon. I run on 256 MB RAM [07:43] paipimenta: i think it totally blew away everything else on the logical partition that it was a part of... [07:43] does document viewer allow multiple instances of same file? [07:43] does installation size mean the size it will have to install other stuff into it? [07:43] if so, how? [07:43] why would you use a logical partition anyway [07:44] tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/sda2 gave error about a superblock not being found [07:44] kiran_ ask your question [07:44] eepberries: because you can only have 4 primary partitions [07:44] so I haven't done anything [07:44] never mind! just found out [07:44] :) [07:44] paipimenta: i ended up running through fsck for about 2 days fixing things... then i had to back up the data that i could recover, blast away all my linux partitions, and start from scratch. so, be careful [07:44] > Who watched the National Day parade [07:44] paipimenta: /dev/sda2 might not use ext2/ext3 [07:44] yeah, it's Linux LVM2 [07:44] Sorry Ipsilon, I don't quite follow what you mean? could you please reframe your question? [07:44] guoxiaolong: that is majorly offtopic for this channel [07:44] paipimenta: yeah never run fsck or anything like it on a mounted partition, asking for trouble [07:44] not mounted?? [07:45] i said Busy Box, booted from media [07:45] paipimenta: sure it didn't automount it or something? [07:45] umount /dev/sda2 gave me an error [07:45] In the installer it says "installation size".. and you can choose from a couple gb to a lot more.. I don't unserstand what the difference between 3gb and 17gb would be [07:45] paipimenta: what error [07:46] DigitalKiwi：so what [07:46] umount /dev/sda2 [07:46] Ipsilon: that's how much space you'd leave available for storing files. you're basically picking the size of its partition [07:46] so find a different channel to ask it in, guoxiaolong [07:46] cannot umount /dev/sda2: Invalid argument [07:46] and stop trolling [07:46] that's what i thought [07:46] thnx [07:46] wtf [07:46] oh no no [07:46] Ipsilon, it refers to the amount of hard size that will be allocated for Ubuntu [07:46] i like here [07:46] nite gang - see you tomorrow.... [07:46] nite [07:46] well 50 min to finish :/ so I guess it's waiting time :P [07:47] hi guoxiaolong [07:47] hi [07:47] Ipsilon: enjoy yourself!

[08:04] how do i unmount a cd thats being used by wine [08:04] DanaG: you can apparently mount ext4 partitions as ext3 partitions in intrepid, you just won't get the extra features of ext4 [08:04] DanaG: i'm not quite sure if this helps you, or what exactly you're trying to do [08:04] circs: system->preferences->network connections [08:05] eepberries: considering my experience with ext4 the other day, scary [08:05] also, i won't be using ext4 again for a while [08:05] mgmuscari: Yeah the last update appears to have changed that [08:05] DanaG, eepberries: you *might* be able to mount ext4 as ext3 .. if you're not using all the features of ext4. Ext4 is not designed to be fully backwards compatible with ext3 afaik [08:05] mgmuscari: isn't there any way to access each file according to there index? [08:05] prospire: what do you mean? [08:05] DanaG: are you trying to keep your ext4 partitions intact? i don't think that would be possible if you're downgrading [08:05] mgmuscari: if you know php....then I want something equivalent to $zip->getNameIndex(0) for tar [08:06] Can someone tell me how to get svideo working? [08:06] DanaG: i'm guessing you'll have to backup all the data from the ext4 partitions and recreate them as ext3 [08:06] where 0 refers to the first file present in the archive [08:06] prospire: sorry, i'm not fluent in phpo [08:06] and 1 refers to the second....and so on [08:06] Hi, I'm on 9.10 and I'm trying to change power options for the notebook, but I can't change any options (they're all grayed out) [08:06] DanaG: which is waht you ultimately want, right? [08:06] !karmic | Berzerker [08:06] Berzerker: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [08:06] what is svideo [08:06] hmm, I have a secondary drive that's got karmic on it, and the target drive to recreate has karmic.... all I need to do is get the secondary drive bootable. [08:06] ? [08:07] who can tell me what is svideo [08:07] I was trying to chain to the thing from grub2, but it wasn't working. Perhaps the secondary just needed grub-legacy reinstalled. [08:07] prospire: i'm not really sure what you're looking for [08:07] But.... does Intrepid grub do ext4? [08:07] guoxiaolong, its video output...which is on my laptop [08:07] !s-video [08:07] = [08:07] Sorry, I don't know anything about s-video [08:07] !svideo [08:07] Sorry, I don't know anything about svideo [08:07] oh ah [08:07] how to download compiz.deb [08:07] DanaG: afaik, ext4 was introduced with jaunty [08:07] guoxiaolong: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-Video [08:07] without installing [08:07] mgmuscari: what do I do to extract just one file from the tar archive? [08:07] kiran_: don't do that, just do sudo apt-get install compiz [08:07] prospire: ah, ok [08:07] hmm [08:08] thanks [08:08] so i can force a monitor to use a certain resolution in the xorg.conf file, right? [08:08] eepberries: yes [08:08] DanaG: 8.10 CD or 8.10 Grub afik no good with Ext4 at all [08:08] okay, then perhaps plan B: go get a danged CD, and burn Jaunty. =P [08:08] Is there a program in ubuntu that can enable me to record streaming radio ? [08:08] mgmuscari: DanaG yes Ext4 was introduced with 9.04 [08:09] Yeah, I was trying to "make it simple" by not having to burn a CD... but it turns out, it's not simple. [08:09] question, when you upgrade to the next version like 9.10 when it comes out [08:09] prospire: try.... tar -xzvf foo.tar path/to/bar [08:09] Cool, thanks for helping me not go on a wild goose chase, so to speak. [08:09] would it be the same as if you just installed it normally from disc, other than the programs you had [08:09] mgmuscari: DanaG and Ext4 in 9.04 is pretty good really, but not perfectly stable, for example people might get a lock up issue if deleting big files from Ext4 partitions [08:09] tar -vzxf is in use .gz tar-jvxf is in use .bz2 [08:09] mgmuscari: DanaG since the kernel they in 9.04 and that [08:09] sebsebseb: i had a wicked filesystem crash the other day using ext4 [08:10] they have in [08:10] mgmuscari: with 9.04? [08:10] sebsebseb: all 5 linux partitions are logical volumes on the same lvm [08:10] sebsebseb: yes [08:10] mgmuscari: oh right well I didn't use lvm in 9.04, just normal partitioning :) when doing Ext4 [08:10] mgmuscari: whats path/to/bar ? [08:10] sebsebseb: all 5 of them started barfing all over the place... multiply owned inodes, orphaned stuff everywhere, bad journals... [08:11] prospire: zippedfolder/somefile.xls [08:11] sebsebseb: yeah i was barely able to recover my /home and /etc before the thing was totally unusable [08:11] hmm, while I'm at it, I might as well just burn karmic. anyway, thanks. going to bed now; will burn the CD tomorrow -- since grabbing a CD requires me to go somewhere and risk waking somebody. =P [08:11] DanaG: ok np [08:12] er wait, unetbootin may be the answer. [08:12] HOpefully, unetbootin on intrepid can create a bootable newer-version. [08:13] DanaG: you could also put karmic on a thumbdrive and install from that. goes faster, too [08:14] well, I lost my 8 gig flash drive, and all I have now is a 32-gig music player that I can't empty (not enough room to offload stuff that's been modified only on the player). [08:15] so, unetbootin. [08:17] Anyone here?? === lianimator1 is now known as lianimator [08:17] No. [08:17] Ha ha [08:18] oh yeah, does unetbootin demand a format of the drive it's being put on? [08:18] usb-creator does, even if the drive is already fat32. [08:18] I've just updated my Ubuntu system and now the pulseaudio sound server won't recognize my sound card [08:18] Anyone who had had the same problem? [08:19] can someone tell me, why my software raids (raid1 and raid5) rebuildes sometimes(i think every month)? [08:19] what does update mean there [08:19] both software raides are beeing rebuild at the same time.. [08:19] why? [08:19] Synaptics update [08:19] that can mean a bunch of things [08:19] i dont think, that both raid drives have an error at the same time [08:19] * DanaG sees Synaptics and thinks touchpad. [08:20] how do you copy output from the commandline using the commandline? note that i have no access to a mouse [08:20] screen [08:21] ...screen? [08:21] Sorry... The system sometimes updates itself, right? And yesterday after an update the sound card disappeared [08:21] it lets you copy sections of it [08:21] aah, looks like the answer is "no" on "does it format?" [08:21] eepberries: where are you trying to copy to and from? And is this under X, or bare console? [08:22] does anyone know how to fix mouse scroll lag in openGl games? [08:22] i'm trying to copy a cvt modeline ouput in bare console [08:22] i'm trying to get my tv to work with my ubuntu machine [08:22] Hello.... just installed ubuntu on an archlinux/windowsXP setup.... should I use the same /boot partition for all linux installs? [08:23] Anyone who has the answer for this problem (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1228388)? === togepi is now known as togepi|sleep [08:26] i have mouse buffer overflow type of lag can anyone help? [08:26] eepberries: you can always use "cat" to output it to a file. for instance append it to xorg.conf and then cut/paste it in nano [08:27] Have you tried a different mouse Oroz? [08:27] yes [08:27] the thing is, i had this before and fixed it googling and such, but i forgot how i did it [08:27] eepberries: err, I mean redirect it to a file. cvt {parameters} >> /etc/X11/xorg.conf [08:28] eepberries: then it will be at the bottom of xorg.conf [08:29] Try another Google. [08:29] just to give a lil info on what it does now, if i press left button and right button together, that action registers as middle button (scroll) [08:29] ok [08:29] hi [08:30] I'm compiling xsplash in Slackware, but in the log I get "[10:27:33:298546654 - WRN] Unable to call to request name. You probably don't have sufficient privileges" [08:30] so ingame, if i bind left to fire, right to crouch, and scroll button to jump, and if i want to crouch and shoot, all it does is jump ;S [08:30] any ideas? [08:30] IvoGeorgiev, you need root access [08:30] * draconis points IvoGeorgiev to #slackware and #linux [08:31] with root, it's the same [08:31] I guess it's dbus [08:31] but come on, xsplash is an ubuntu app [08:31] ahh [08:31] what does ctl+alt+f2 actually do? [08:32] I'll ask in the slackware channel, but I bet they aren't interested in xsplash at all [08:32] hey i am trying to play a vcd...but it says vlc doesn't support [08:32] give you a system shell without gui [08:32] well I think xsplash is still broken for me, that's a karmic thing [08:32] how can I trace what it's doing? [08:33] I mean, it's just giving an error "no privilege', and nothing more, both in user and root [08:33] I bet it's dbus [08:33] Hi, anyone good for a boot of death on 64bit ubuntu? [08:33] Oroz, it may be possible that you have a KEYBOARD problem. Such as soda or coffee spilt on it or just water damage. Have you tried another keyboard? [08:33] hey i am trying to play a vcd...but it says vlc doesn't support...any idea how to get my vlc play it [08:34] uh oh. it's bad that not even that is working right for me anymore. i managed to edit xorg.conf, restarted it, and it told me that i was running in low graphics mode and gave me the option of creating a new profile for my hardware. i then restarted, but the login screen wasn't showing up. now when i use ctl+alt+f2, the screen is sliding around sort of like when you tried to watch the scrambled porn channels on old cable boxes [08:34] oh yeah, found the problem. I've compiled the xsplash package with /usr/etc instead of /etc so the dbus config file is not in place :D [08:34] what should i try from here? [08:34] anyone who knows how to jb ipod touch please message me [08:34] vcd? video compact disc? they make those? [08:34] yes, and vlc should support it [08:34] nothing spilled on it, keyboard is brand new [08:34] try this http://www.blog.highub.com/linux/open-vcd-using-vlc-on-ubuntu/ [08:35] OK. [08:35] Just wondering. [08:35] thanks for help [08:35] keyboard /controller/ could be messed up, couldn't it? [08:36] eepberries, what abt ctl+alt+f3, ctl+alt+f4, ctl+alt+f5 etc? [08:36] when i8042 goes flaky, usually you get kernel panics and other serious issues, though [08:36] how do I modify incremental search to instantly delete characters when I hit backspace, instead of just going to the previous occurrence of the word? [08:36] njr: same [08:36] i used to be able to access the command line fine, now that isn't working [08:37] or doing a ctl+alt+f3 after ctl+alt+f2? [08:37] Oroz, try this Google search: http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=Ubuntu+buffer+overflow+mouse+problem&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&fp=2cca7b2e99206b9c [08:37] ok, thanks [08:37] nope. i'm going to check the xorg.conf i guess [08:37] Your welcome. :) [08:37] anybody know how to view where exactly in the volume group or physical volume the logical volume data is stored? you need this to do pvmove stuff, I remember [08:38] http://romster.dyndns.org:8080/commands.xhtml #LVM section [08:38] iirc, it's possible to destroy a display using a modeline [08:38] tar -xf backups/backup.tar backup.sql <- this command extracts backup.sql in backup.tar in ../backups , but I want it to be extracted in backups.how do I do that? [08:39] draconis: well, when i set the display resolution to "800x600" in xorg.conf, when i retarted, ubuntu told me it was running in a "low graphics mode" and i selected for it to create a new profile based on my hardware. then i restarted [08:39] has nothing alike my problem [08:40] its more like... [08:40] Basically in some 3D games when I use the mouse wheel (rapidly move it up and down) the game lags really,really badly for a limited amount of time , the amount of lag seems to depend on the amount of mouse wheel activity... [08:40] i'm guessing i didn't configure the xorg.conf properly? though i wouldn't think the profile generation should have gone so wrong [08:40] Oroz, it is the same as in Windows, you need to change the system properties or change the computers [08:41] reaction to the mouse. [08:41] can anybody tell me the command that lets me see exactly how many physical extents are taken up by which logical volumes and where? [08:41] pextents vg_names,size_pe_lv?? [08:41] something like that === andrew_ is now known as Guest56505 [08:41] could you help me with that, or at least point me in the right direction, im quite noob at linux [08:42] tar -xf backups/backup.tar backup.sql <- this command extracts backup.sql in backup.tar in ../backups , but I want it to be extracted in backups.how do I do that? [08:42] Oroz I am just helping you by memory. I haven't used Linux for about 4 years now. [08:42] can anyone give me safe boot flags, I have an errant dell vostro with 64 bit which crashes shortly after boot, previously had to turn acpi off, this however does not seem to be working with the 9.04 update... [08:42] oroz: whats your problem? [08:43] paipimenta: you want to see the size of your partitions, right? [08:43] His problem is that he has a mouse buffer overflow. [08:43] oh, its ok, its appreciated either way [08:43] maybe i should've mentioned that i downgraded ubuntu [08:43] mouse buffer overload.. first case of those for me === Guest56505 is now known as mathay [08:44] Basically in some 3D games when I use the mouse wheel (rapidly move it up and down) the game lags really,really badly for a limited amount of time , the amount of lag seems to depend on the amount of mouse wheel activity... [08:44] eepberries: no, I want to see exactly where on my physical volume (which physical extents #'s) are occupied by which logical volumes [08:44] basically .. [08:44] i get some errors when i compile Ncurses library [08:44] Oroz, how much RAM do you have? [08:44] 4gb [08:44] if im not scrolling up and down, mouse looking around is smooth as silk [08:44] tar -xf backups/backup.tar backup.sql <- this command extracts backup.sql of backup.tar in ../backups , but I want it to be extracted in backups.how do I do that? [08:44] 2gb ram [08:44] anyone? [08:44] is it bad if my ubuntu machine just shows a blinking underscore after going through grub? [08:44] That is more than enough. [08:45] oroz: have you tried with another moudr, could be electronic related [08:45] moudr=mose [08:45] Cabaro I suggested that. [08:45] :) [08:45] well i did, and im sure its not ;) [08:45] cause i managed to fix it [08:45] so same problem with another mouse? [08:45] when i had ubuntu 9.04 [08:45] yep [08:46] anyone can help [08:46] Oroz, when you tried a different mouse, was it the same manufacturer? [08:46] no it wasnt [08:46] ok, next suggestion: try with live cd, is the problem replicating then [08:46] with live cd i dont have 3d acceleration [08:47] this is with an nvidia card right? === Fishie is now known as Fishie_ [08:47] yep [08:47] Oroz, perhaps if you are using games maybe it is best to use a joystick rather than a mouse. [08:47] wait.. [08:47] so its related with 4d acc.. which 3d card you have [08:47] that's a known problem === xod is now known as onats [08:47] 3d acc.. [08:47] look on the nvidia forums for a fix [08:47] no joystick with fps ;) [08:47] hello, what utility should i use to check for disk health? [08:47] one second.. [08:48] onats: smartmontools maybe [08:48] when i finaly fixed mouse lag on 9.04, my nvidia died [08:48] rsk, looking [08:48] Cheers, im having trouble with browsing the web. Its overall slow and some sites wont work (Connection Interrupted etc.). I have tried switching browser, changing the DNS-server, open up my firewall completely (pass all quick on my OpenBSD firewall) and the last thing i did was to install 2.6.29 and disable ipv6. Still it does not work ok, any suggestions? (And FYI i rebooted into windows and it worked splendid there, both with F [08:48] F and IE). [08:48] onats: fsck [08:48] tar -xf backups/backup.tar backup.sql <- this command extracts backup.sql of backup.tar in ../backups , but I want it to be extracted in backups.how do I do that? [08:48] anyone? [08:48] so i put in a radeon x1600 [08:48] prospire: try -C [08:48] but since it isnt supported on newest ubuntu, i had to downgrade [08:48] Oroz, does everything else work OK with the video card? [08:49] with downgrade, same problem came back [08:49] yep [08:49] cabaro, i always need to run fsck whenever i restart.. i have a feeling that somethings already wrong with my disk [08:49] I burnt Karmic Koala (9.10) to a disk, when I try to boot using the disk I get the error "Invalid or corrupt kernel image".

[08:51] so....I think I may want to repartition my drive with regular ext3 partitions.... I want to set the boundaries on the disk (cylinder, head, section/sector, track, etc.) so that it will be easier to physically move data around later and resize partitions [08:52] how do find the edges of cylinders so that I can give that data to the partitioner in units it takes, i.e. kMG or blocks/sectors/whatever?

[08:55] is there any reason why a basic analog tv just won't work with ubuntu in heavy graphics mode? basic command line stuff is working but not even the live disc will get into full graphics mode properly [08:56] i'm really not understanding this [08:56] lol [08:56] are there any channels where i can get help with mouse problems [08:56] !plausible-deniability [08:56] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [08:56] !plausibledeniability [08:56] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [08:56] blah [08:56] oroz, i think your problem was more related to 3d card than mouse [08:56] !fishing | paipimenta [08:56] paipimenta: Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". [08:57] Curly_Q, no raid at all... [08:57] shrey: before you ask again install the program kppp and it should be easy enough to dial up a connection with it [08:57] maybe, but my other nvidia did the same thing until i did something [08:58] cabaro, how do you suggest i do that? buy a new one now? [08:58] wow, I think sebsebseb might be a second-layer bot [08:58] question, when you upgrade to the next version like 9.10 when it comes out, would it be the same as if you just installed it normally from disc, other than the programs you had [08:58] cabaro, i would like to be able to test the disk first... [08:58] Curly_Q, my box is 64 bit, on ext3 FS [08:58] like vim to ex [08:58] Dayofswords: not quote you wont have grub 2.0 or ext4 [08:58] onats: since your problem keeps coming when 3d enabled, i think its a driver issue [08:59] cabaro, how do you know that? [08:59] 3D enabled? [08:59] you told us [08:59] i did? [08:59] Dayofswords: yep Ext3 9.04 installs won't get upgraded to Ext4 9.10 installs [08:59] thanks [08:59] 9.10 going to be ext4 only? [09:00] onats: am i wrong, if so, please correct me. im not here to argue, my wife does that job [09:00] paipimenta: as far as I know attempting to wind people up in here a bit, doesn't really fit in with the channel guidelines [09:00] !guideliens | paipimenta [09:00] Dayofswords: no it runs ext3 fine [09:00] Sorry, I don't know anything about guideliens [09:00] !guidelines | paipimenta [09:00] paipimenta: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [09:00] cabaro, well its true that i am running 3d on the desktop... [09:00] Onats, the only thing I can say to you is that I had this problem a few years back. I was searching the entire net and all of the Linux channels. I was running a DUAL Pentium Processor SCSI RAID system. I had to FSCK the box many times to recover the system. [09:00] Dayofswords: ext4 is just the newer later version [09:00] Dayofswords: no [09:00] Dayofswords: you can still do Ext3 and that, but Ext4 is worth having for / :) [09:00] hi - how do I select the ubuntu-server-minimalvm preseed without selecting it from the menu ? i'm setting up pxe and want that as my default option [09:01] cabaro,but i wonder how it's related to the filesystem... i downloaded the latest ATI linux driver from ATI site [09:01] onats_ try disabling 3d and see if the problem persists [09:01] Primefalcon: hey i have got it, but how can i install it in a computer where i dont have internet. [09:01] Dayofswords: since rather fast boot up, shut down, and disk checking after 23 or so boots [09:01] you should see related logfiles in /var/log [09:01] cabaro, ok will do that.. but I'm gonna miss it! lol [09:01] Curly_Q, ok noted.. [09:02] shrey: request a cd from shipit when it comes out [09:02] Onats are you running SCSI? I forgot to ask you that. [09:02] shrey: or download and burn as iso and install it thus [09:02] i havent really done much on my laptops 9.04 , so when 9.10 comes out, would it be a good idea just to wipe it and put a fresh 9.10? [09:02] Primefalcon: Thanks.. [09:02] oops [09:02] sebsebseb: just meant to be praise for your efficiency, not meant to ruffle any feathers... sorry for stealing processor cycles [09:02] maybe /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog anyone here who knows which log does pci graphics cards log? [09:02] Curly_Q, no, all in SATA [09:02] whats the fastest browser for Ubunut? [09:02] Primefalcon: ok [09:02] OK. [09:03] Ali_nz11: Opera I guess [09:03] Ali_nz11: Konqueror is also pretty fast [09:03] Ali_nz, i think its the chrome alphas ;D [09:03] Ok, will try it. FF seems slow? [09:03] Dayofswords: just download an iso and burn or request a cd and do it that way, and probaly 9.10 really is quite a jump [09:03] Ali_nz11: ff is usually fast enough [09:03] Ali_nz11: ubuntu 9.10 will be using 3.5 by default [09:03] Dayofswords: when I triued ext4 a while back it kept freezing up at inoppertune times, they prob have that fixed now though [09:04] !browser > Ali_nz11 [09:04] Ali_nz11, please see my private message [09:04] k [09:04] Primefalcon: any idea if ext4 will be defualt on 9.10? [09:04] Onats, keep in mind that 64 bit systems are the leading edge technology. Having said that, anything that is leading edge will have more problems untill all of the Techno-Geeks find the solution. [09:05] Dayofswords: yes it is [09:05] Primefalcon: Dayofswords yes Ext4 is optional for 9.04, ,but becasue of the kernel they have in 9.04 and that, it's not perfectly stable [09:05] Hi! I am trying to change the cpu scaling scheme (as in the deskbar applet) from the command line. How can I do this? [09:05] sebsebseb: so with 9.04 it's not recomended [09:05] Dayofswords: yes it is, but not for 9.04 Ext3 upgrades for example [09:06] Primefalcon: some will recommend it with 9.04 with a bit of warning, and others won't at all [09:06] maybe kde will work in 9.10 on my laptop =p [09:06] Curly_Q, you're prbably right.. just dont want to risk anything.. had some uncommitted sources on my desktop when it started to manifest that problem [09:06] (eh, i dont like kde anyways) [09:06] sebsebseb: I wouldn't when I tried it but admittedly that was a while back I had it freeze on installs and I had to manualy go in and wipe the dpkg folders to get rid of bad semi installs and lockjs [09:07] sebsebseb: a lot of people would have probs working out how to do that [09:08] Primefalcon: personally I haven't had problems with Ext4 in 9.04, but some other people have [09:08] Primefalcon: yeah and there used to be a dataloss issue [09:08] Primefalcon: I think that's fixed in 9.04 [09:09] By the way, I always say this and I want to say this again. I am sure I speak for everyone here on this channel all 1282 members of this channel a huge THANK YOU for all of the technical support from not only myself but all of all the other Techs here. Many thanks guys and gals. :) [09:09] sebsebseb: probaly is this was about 4-5 months back so ext4 in ubuntu was still realatively new [09:11] Primefalcon: they could have had a nice perfectly stable Ext4 in 9.04, as an optional upgrade, if they did things a bit differently regarding updates, but they don't. I mean providing a proper kernel for it, but also whatever else that makes it properly stable. [09:11] I'm looking forward to the later ATI open source drivers though in karmic since I am using an older x1300xt pro [09:12] Primefalcon: I am looking forward to the nice stable Ext4 in Karmic by default, so can tell loads of people to do it :) however unless that Ext3 to Ext4 conversion is good enough, they will have to clean install Ubuntu for full support [09:12] sebsebseb: kinda too late to really worry about it now especialy since it's not an lts version or anything but in the future on dev systems I'll stick to default file systems sicne they'll be a bit more tested [09:12] What is the difference between the Ubuntu netbook version and the desktop version? [09:13] Primefalcon: well these non LTS versions are really for testing stuff [09:13] Primefalcon: and doing new features [09:13] Prohibited: biggest difference is the default GUI [09:13] Prohibited: the netbook remix is lighter and specialised for use on netbooks [09:13] sebsebseb: yeah wonder how upgrading will go with the unr since thats changed well a lot more than the desktop [09:13] hm [09:14] hi, can you tell me how to share file with writing IP address in nautilus? thanks.. [09:14] did i start something =p [09:14] Primefalcon: I would hope so in a way, because it's also pretty new, was there one even for 8.10? [09:15] sebsebseb: a unr I dont think so [09:15] lstarnes: I'm running a laptop with 1GB RAM, 1.8GHz processor, 27GB Hard drive, 16 MB graphics card. Would the netbook version be better for my computer? [09:15] <_cabaro_> yankees for a windows share smb://server/share [09:15] Prohibited: is it a netbook? [09:15] Primefalcon: yep I think 9.04 is the first netbook remix [09:15] it's a laptop that is like 6 years old lol [09:16] Prohibited: possibly. xubuntu might suit it fine [09:16] Prohibited: you really need a bigger hd [09:16] i've got a 500GB external [09:16] lol [09:16] Primefalcon: in a way we are off topic. Anyway regarding major new stuff, makes sense not to do it in the LTS first, for example KDE 4 as the default for Kubuntu was 8.10 rather than 8.04 where it was optional, and Gnome 3 won't be the default in 10.04 the next LTS, but it probably will be optional in the repo [09:16] sebsebseb: it's still beautiful though I have a asus 900ha here and well.... no problems only thing I wish is that the wifi was a bit more flexible when your traveling around it can tend to drop out and not pick up new routers within range and you have to reboot [09:16] lstarnes: how does Xubuntu differ from Ubuntu? [09:17] Prohibited: it uses xfce instead of gnome [09:17] Prohibited: it's also lighter [09:17] <_cabaro_> prohibited 8TB RAiD [09:17] hmm [09:17] Primefalcon: they did put pulseaudio in 8.04 first though, and then all those pulseaudio issues hmm [09:17] Who knows how to make compiz not afect soem of my programms?? [09:17] Primefalcon: ,but pulseaudio was meant to be really good or whatever [09:17] does wine suck ot it's just my idea? [09:17] lstarnes: thanks [09:17] Does xfce work with most Gnome programs? [09:17] _cabaro_ : i mean between two ubuntu computer, i really need to copy my music folder :) [09:17] amerinese: yes [09:17] amerinese: Yes. [09:18] ubuntistas: Wine does not suck [09:18] Are there exceptions? === cee_immuddh is now known as SANTY [09:18] daivana: Compiz is a window manager, it affects all windows. You could try installing CCSM, most of the effects can be disabled there. [09:18] HHHHHHHHYYYY [09:18] !ccsm | daivana [09:18] daivana: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz === SANTY is now known as asfg [09:18] thanks [09:18] <_cabaro_> yankees: easiest way is to install ssh server on the machine you want to.. actually ixnstall on both, sudo apt-get install ssh [09:18] amerinese: Xfce is basically just a different window manager + a different file browser + a different panel. [09:18] I have that [09:19] <_cabaro_> then scp --help [09:19] grawity: Okay cool... lightweight is good [09:19] well i want to uninstall a software , i click remove and it's being installed again , how comes that doesn't suck? be realistic people, don't hear bullshits [09:19] amerinese: Actually, I once used xfwm4 with the rest GNOME. [09:19] ubuntistas: that word is not acceptable here [09:19] O want to know why is tilda not transparent, it just shows my dekstop but not what realy is behind it, I think compiz does something :) [09:19] sigh [09:19] ok ok i apologize you're not being realistic at all dude [09:20] these mirrors were going really fast earlier, now they are going really slow. 350kb/s to 50kb/s [09:20] adding about 3h onto my downloads. [09:20] ubuntistas: if there is a bug in wine, you can report it to their developers so that they can try to fix it [09:20] daivana: That usually happens when there's no Compiz (or another compositing manager) at all :| [09:20] Prohibited: try another mirror [09:20] Anybody else having issues with Firefox? I crash when it's fullsize on Youtube all the time... and also why the heck is the browser agent Shiretoko instead of Firefox 3.5? [09:20] amerinese: ok [09:20] <_cabaro_> yankees: scp file1 username@secondcomputername:/folderToCopy [09:20] amerinese: yes Flash can go bad in Firefox in Ubuntu, and things go rather bad [09:20] Prohibited: Change mirror? (wget, apt-get, other apps will just continue downloading from where you stopped.) [09:20] ubuntistas: what program are you talking about doing this anyhow? i use wine a lot and havn't had this issue [09:21] thanks grawity [09:21] !ff35 | amerinese [09:21] amerinese: 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 [09:21] is this normal? i am running ubuntu on a 2GB RAM PC and ubuntu is using 1.8GB RAM (used + buffers) if i am putting 6GB into that pc and running the same! applications, ubuntu is using 3GB (used + buffers). so if there is more ram at the pc, linux is buffering more? [09:21] sebsebseb: Is it possible to somehow isolate flash to another process maybe? [09:21] <_cabaro_> yankees if you dont have proper dns resolution for your computers just replace computername with the IP address [09:21] I don't want to lose my whole browser session on crash [09:21] grawity: only other New Zealand mirror has no file on the FTP. [09:21] amerinese: also the true reason why it's Shiretoko for 3.5 in 9.04, is because they at least thought about how whilst 9.04 was the major release 3.5 would be released, but because of their security updates only from the repos thingey, they reolized that they woudn't be able to put in the proper Mozilla 3.5 version [09:21] iceroot: Is the CPU 32-bit or 64-bit? And the OS? [09:21] amerinese: so basically put in the development version, which is then made very similar to the final [09:22] amerinese: or something like this, well those bot links should explain better than me really [09:22] grawity: 64bit ubuntu on amd64 cpu === usama is now known as Guest96574 [09:22] _cabaro_ : can you gimme an example what should i write in nautilus address bar, please. [09:22] iceroot: Then, maybe it just hasn't needed the extra RAM yet. [09:22] sebsebseb: Okay, checking out now, but I think that is the package I have installed [09:22] amerinese: Firefox 3.5.3 will be the default for Karmic final, unless there's another point release for Firefox then maybe 3.5.4 for example instead [09:22] yankees: sftp://username@secondcomputername/ [09:22] Understood [09:22] <_cabaro_> yankees if you have a problem with the commands then just install ssh on both machines and install filezilla, sudo apt-get install filezilla [09:22] amerinese: that's the proper Firefox, with the branding and all that [09:22] amerinese: the proper logo I mean [09:23] amerinese: and user agent string for that matter [09:24] How do I get sound on flash videoes in firefox 3.0.14, ubuntu 9.04? I have followed instructions and got video in firefox without sound, and I have VLC and Mplayer playing mp3 files perfectly. === Anodyne is now known as Soundaholic [09:24] amerinese: actsaully that was one reason I got karmic early, as well as having a good reason to repartition anyway [09:24] http://ftp.citylink.co.nz/ubuntu-releases/9.10/ [09:24] sebsebseb: how is that working out for you? stable? [09:24] ( http://ftp.citylink.co.nz/ubuntu-releases/9.10/ ) no files on the FTPlol. [09:24] Is this the right place to get support? [09:25] dilo: for ubuntu, yes [09:25] amerinese: I wanted to use the proper Firefox from the repo, rather than shiretoko, which I had been using for a while anyway, before the clean install [09:25] grawity : if my computer name is emily and the other is em , what should i write? [09:25] my nokia keeps shutting my network, so sorrry to anyone im trying to help [09:25] lstarnes, okay. [09:25] hey [09:25] yankees: sftp://em/ [09:25] amerinese: and get newer stuff early, since I used Ubuntu since the second release with Fedora Core 2 and 4 before it [09:25] grawity: thumbs up [09:26] amerinese: well it's been better than when I did 9.04 early [09:26] I want to install VNC on jaunty but i dont know how to install a *.sh script [09:26] amerinese: stable though well not quite [09:26] dilo: you run it [09:26] dilo: with sh file.sh [09:26] grawity : ok, thanks [09:26] dilo: you don't need to do it like that you can get it from the repo [09:26] sebsebseb: I see. Man, this is a strange argument. Why do they do it for branding, but then change the useragent? They can have the blue globe and everything, but still leave the useragent firefox 3.5... it's for compatibility... [09:26] VCN is not free [09:26] how do i change the sample rate of a song permanently on ubuntu 8.04 LTS ( to be changed from 44.1khz to 48khz) , Audacity doesnt work on my box kindly suggest some other application to change it [09:27] dilo: VNC is free. [09:27] dilo: there are free vnc implementations [09:27] amerinese: indeed I would have prefered the proper FIrefox user agent [09:27] oh okay, thankyou and let me try [09:27] how can i use xrandr to change the login screen resolution? [09:27] yankees: grawity's line should work, but you have to install ssh (server) on the machine to connect first, sudo apt-get install ssh [09:27] Soundaholic: Increasing the sample rate? Is that even possible, and if it is - what's the point? Isn't it as useless as increasing the bitrate? [09:27] amerinese: ,but the blue globe is the devellopment version really, and I guess as a result it can't have the proper user agent string with Firefox in it, or that name [09:27] sebsebseb: amerinese: so would of I prefered they keep it [09:27] It works, thankyou! === wang_ is now known as rock [09:28] amerinese: going back a few releases they actsaully put in a development verison of the proper Firefox :) [09:28] amerinese: can't remember which release that was though [09:28] amerinese, sebsebseb: there are settings in about:config that can be used to change the useragent string [09:28] what is the temrinal comand to copy a file in to another folder where are write permisions [09:28] amerinese: yes they put in a Firefox beta [09:28] lstarnes: I know [09:28] How can I make Launchpad a list of error reports which I have contributed to? [09:28] lstarnes: ,but that would be lieing really if changing the shiretoko one to the FIrefox one :D [09:28] daivana sudo cp filename destination [09:28] thanks [09:29] lstarnes: of course that may help with how browser market share is measured, but still what I said [09:29] example: sudo cp /home/dude/hi.png /home/bro/hi.png [09:29] sebsebseb: amerinese: lstarnes: you can also install useragent switcher but thats kidna not the point most people wont change it and if you want to interact with it you it makes things harder for stats [09:29] lstarnes: yeah, I'm more concerned about the default is all, i'm using a user agent switcher when i run into problems... not just for myself, but for anyone installing... a sane default [09:29] 2. problem ;) [09:29] Primefalcon: I changed it :) this time in Karmic, since the proper en gb stuff comes in later or whatever, I removed the en us in the user agent so it would say en :) [09:30] i need to install .DOT NET Framework with wine but during the installation there comes a big error message [09:30] Primefalcon: changed in about:config [09:30] anybody know how i can use xrandr to change resolution at the login screen? [09:31] _cabaro_ : ok. thank you. anyway, why can't i send file from my phone to ubuntu machine with bluetooth? [09:31] vonmixu: moi [09:31] Primefalcon: the whole shiretoko for 3.5 in 9.04, has kind of confussed a lot of users really, and so not really a great thing [09:31] i need to install .DOT NET Framework with wine but during the installation there comes a big error message <- help please ;) [09:31] sebsebseb: I have it listed in useragent switcher myself I use that a lot to imitate ie8 and such it helps form a web designer and php programming perspective to be able to change agents for testing [09:31] Primefalcon: indeed at that [09:32] dilo: we can't really help you if we don't know what the error message is [09:32] dilo: How are you installing it? [09:32] Primefalcon: make sure it changes back to the proper one when your done though :) [09:32] lstarnes, well its to big for posting here [09:32] sebsebseb: of course, who wants to give microsoft undue credit [09:32] dilo: Pastebin. [09:32] !pastebin | dilo [09:32] dilo: 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 [09:32] Primefalcon: exactly [09:32] just a sec [09:32] dilo: Also, _why_ are you installing .NET? [09:33] Primefalcon: who wants to help with market share for the worst browser of all Internet Explorer [09:34] Primefalcon: that actsaully knows about this stuff, so sadly not most web users, anyway off topic now [09:34] grawity, for a basic programm [09:34] sebsebseb: have to admit though that ie has made a lot of inroads for standards, I just wish they would of enforced standards mode on it from a web programers perspective ie6 and 7 are damm nightmares to deal with [09:34] dilo: Have you tried Mono, or doesn't it work with your program? [09:34] grawity, never heard of mono [09:34] Primefalcon: what do you mean inroads for standards? [09:35] sebsebseb: and with ie8 default using ie7 rendering it doesn't really help matters [09:35] lstarnes, here's the paste [09:35] http://paste.ubuntu.com/285258/ [09:35] mono (the software framework project, not mononucleosis) is great [09:35] dilo: Mono is the .NET runtime for Linux. [09:35] s'il vous plait [09:35] grawity, sound great ;) [09:35] *sounds [09:35] How do I get sound on flash videoes in firefox 3.0.14, ubuntu 9.04? I have followed instructions and got video in firefox without sound, and I have VLC and Mplayer playing mp3 files perfectly. <- help needed [09:35] Novell has released Moonlight, an open-source Silverlight plugin, that works great === iversen is now known as Buckie [09:36] sebsebseb: proper w3c code that looks the same across all the browser, I don't know if you do webdesign but with ie you have to do a lot of double coding just to fix ie bugs [09:36] grawity, can i install it over synaptic? [09:36] dilo: Yes. [09:36] grawity, great [09:36] dilo: you might want to send that error message in a bug report to wine's developers [09:36] dilo: It doesn't run _all_ programs yet (and .NET apps written for Windows look ugly-ish), but try it first before messing with Wine. [09:36] lstarnes, alright! thankyou [09:36] Primefalcon: I have made websites before, and made sure the pages validted and yeah, so I know things, indeed all that extra work that many proper web developers have to do for silly IE, because it has most of the market still sadly [09:37] anybody know how i can use xrandr to change the resolution at the login screen? the video mode for my monitor is set incorrectly [09:37] grawity, okay! thankyou very much [09:37] Primefalcon: Ubuntu is like a big win :) for a lot of things, Firefox by default instead of that horrible browser, Open Office instead of Microsoft Office, etc [09:37] Primefalcon: of course a lot of other distros that applys to as well, and we are off topic hmm [09:38] sebsebseb: its about 3 times the the work since ie6 and 7 render cmpletely different than complient browsers such as opera or ff but they in turn render completely different than each other which complicates matters even further [09:38] Primefalcon: if you want to continue for a bit we should take it to pm or #ubuntu-offtopic really [09:39] I'm using ubuntu 9.04 . [09:39] seb yah I should prob be finishing off the code im doing and head off to bed its 3:39am here lol [09:39] i noticed have alot of "iefix" iehack" stuff in thei website's source [09:39] Now i wanna install kubuntu 9.04 from cd with ubuntu. what i have to do ? === MadMax is now known as MaxSid [09:39] N3O: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [09:40] N3O: Why use a CD? You can install kubuntu-desktop from the repositories instead. [09:40] Does anyone inhere know anything about crontab ? [09:40] MenZa: Let me guess, very slow intertube. [09:40] grawity: A possibility. [09:40] Buckie: Yes, what's your problem? [09:40] How can I make Launchpad to produce a list of error reports which I have contributed to? [09:40] MenZa , actually my download is not limitless. also i have the cd right now. [09:40] melik: install ubutntu from that cd then run sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [09:41] bullgard4: Try #launchpad [09:41] grawity, the problem is that I want to run a script every minute, so i figure out it must be like 5 stars - when i exit vim and checks with crontab - l it tells me there is "no crontab for user" [09:41] N3O: Ah, that explains it. [09:41] cabaro, this gives me some dependency error. [09:41] Buckie: How are you editing the crontab? [09:41] MenZa: I will. Thank you. [09:41] Buckie: what vim command are you using when you exit? [09:41] grawity, with vim and pico [09:41] Buckie: What _command_? [09:42] MenZa , can you please tell me the steps. from add my cdrom as repo to install kde. [09:42] crontab -e it runs pico [09:42] Buckie: it's likely nano instead of pico [09:42] Buckie: depends on what $EDITOR or $VISUAL are [09:42] n3o: what gives an dependency error? [09:42] ...I can't stand pico, so I set mine to vim [09:42] Buckie: Hmm. How are you exiting the editor? Does it really save the file? Can you check /var/spool/cron? (It's actually nano, not pico, but that doesn't matter.) [09:43] N3O: I'm afraid I'm not sure. Have a look at System -> Administration -> Software Sources [09:44] anyone playing with the 9.10 netbook remix beta? I seem to be lacking /boot/grub/menu.lst, wondering what's changed that I should be looking for now.. [09:44] neo: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list [09:44] who can help me in ISo mounting?????

I blacklisted ath5k and ath9k, patched and compiled but nothing. I do that usualli on 9.04 without problems even on kernel updates. Any idea about this ? [09:45] MenZa ok then ? [09:45] Buckie: Well, sudo cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/$USER [09:45] SUPEROGT: Generally, you don't want madwifi, you *want* ath5k. Try #ubuntu+1, however - this is only for 6.06 - 9.04.

[09:47] how dfo I asing a target? [09:47] daivana: wrong path to the iso file. mount -o loop /path/to/isofile /mnt/folderYouMade [09:47] thank you [09:47] I am using internal modem(PCI card), but i can't see /dev/modem .why? [09:48] Are you the coaching ubuntu cool guy 8-) that helps me getting sound on flash videoes in firefox 3.0.14, ubuntu 9.04? [09:48] janrou: which flash plugin are you using? [09:48] Istarnes: adobe [09:49] sam2: It might be a so-called "Winmodem" - a quite dumb card which makes the Windows drivers do everything... Cheap to produce, but hard to use in Linux. [09:49] janrou: try this: go to system > preferences > sound and change everything to use PulseAudio Sound Server (except the last option involving hardware mixers) [09:49] can somebody tell me if this xorg.conf file looks good? i'm trying to force xorg to use a certain resolution but it doesn't seem to be working http://pastebin.com/m36c538f [09:50] sam2: If it isn't, check for /dev/ttyS* - that's how serial ports are presented. And internal modems, I think, are connecting through a virtual serial port, or something like that. [09:50] Istarnes: PulseAudio server do not produce sound, we better go p2p chatting, because I have followed the most relevant procedurs I could find. [09:51] What stage is karmic in at the moment? [09:51] conb123: Beta. Brokenly. [09:51] conb123: Beta [09:51] conb123: beta; ask in #ubuntu+1 for further info [09:51] grawity, the file it edit when i run crontab -e is /tmp/crontab.iUijs0/crontab [09:51] BOO YA! I just manually deleted and remade (hence resized) my LVM partition by one cylinder! [09:51] janrou: are you runnig anything else that uses sound when you try to view videos in firefox? [09:51] *running [09:51] conb123: first stage beta actualy went into beta on the second I think [09:51] MenZa: So it wouldn't be worth me grabbing it from update-manager just yet? [09:52] and the beginning did not start on a cylinder boundary..... CRAPPY! [09:52] Buckie: When you close $EDITOR, 'crontab' is supposed to check that file's syntax and move it to the right place. [09:52] hello - i need some help to record from a dv-cam please.... tnx [09:52] conb123: Depends if you feel like testing it. It runs alright for me, and it seems to for most people, but bear in mind it is *not* a production release. [09:52] buckie: thats a temp file [09:52] grawity ahh, so ctrl + z is a bad idea ? [09:52] Istarnes: no! The flash video shows up perfectly but without sound. [09:52] Buckie: Yep [09:52] lol [09:52] Hi [09:53] janrou: even with everything set to use pulseaudio? [09:53] im trying to get ipv6 to work on ubuntu but i cant ping my gateway or connect to irc [09:53] MenZa: Right yeah, how long until it is released, they bring out a new one every like 6 months or something isn't it? [09:53] grawity, still dont work though [09:53] Noun: How are you setting it up? [09:53] October 29th, conb123 - and yes, there's a new release out every six months, co-inciding with GNOME's release cycle. [09:53] conb123: 9.10 = 10th month of 2009 [09:54] Ok then i think i shall wait until the 29th then thanks guys [09:54] conb123: wait until a few days afterwards or you will have slow downloading from the mirrirs [09:54] *mirrors [09:54] anyone running kermic and firefox 3.5 here? [09:54] lstarnes: i usually use the torrent [09:54] Why should I use the PulseAudio Server, when it does not produce any test sound in System|Preference|Sound? [09:54] einand: #ubuntu+1 is for questions about karmic [09:55] einand: Several. Even more in #ubuntu+1, which is where you should be asking about Karmic :) [09:55] janrou: use it anyway and see if it works with flash [09:55] janrou: if it doesn't, then switch back to the settings you had before [09:55] lstarnes and MenZa tnx [09:55] grawity, I know what i did wrong now :$ [09:55] how do you work out what graphics chipset you are using? and is it better to install a driver or will the default be just as good?

[11:04] what is the best download manager with threading, downloading files in multiple chunks then putting it back together (forgot what that was called), proxy, authentication, scheduling, and more?

[12:04] hi [12:04] i have a problem with pidgin [12:04] i wanna install it from source [12:04] ssh is awesome' [12:05] Guest52695: some of those settings maybe specific to ultimates configuration, I advise you not to do it [12:05] but i get this error [12:05] yakoza: what problem do you have with pidgin [12:05] im writing this from a windows netbook when xchat is only installed on my linux desktop [12:05] ikonia: you happen to know where I can download the full source code of ubuntu [12:05] <[BIOS]Hrishi> saddas [12:05] yakoza: why do you not want to use the version ubuntu developers packaged it for you [12:05] just for the hell of it [12:05] ikonia : http://paste.ubuntu.com/285321/ [12:05] vega-: the ubuntu repositories [12:05] I am thinking to update to 9.04. Start from Hardy. I am planning to "cp -ap" all my home folder. My question is if this is enough to savely recover all my settings? [12:05] <[BIOS]Hrishi> CAN NE1 SEE WHAT I TYPE??!?!!! [12:05] link plz [12:06] [BIOS]Hrishi, yes [12:06] Guest52695: what part of "not supported" am I not being clear with [12:06] GSF1200S: fun isnt it, you can also transfer files securely using winscp [12:06] <[BIOS]Hrishi> THANK U DIDIOT !!!!!! [12:06] didiot i like that one [12:06] hello [12:06] didiot ?? [12:07] good news, looks like i don't need to compile: https://launchpad.net/~c-korn/+archive/vlc [12:07] ActionParsnip, haha, yeah, done that as well. Did that and putty, and then Xming and x11 forwarding on the windows netbook. Will be moving to ubuntu once released though [12:07] I do not understand what Ikonia means. Sorry. [12:07] i switch my intallation from opensuse to ubuntu. now i've some problems with my encrypted filesystems. i cannot decrypt them anymore, ubuntu say: Error: Password must be at least 20 characters. ... with the old version of opensuse it works (aes 256) [12:07] Guest52695: you are not using an ubuntu install, upgrading, or backing up settings from ubuntu ultimate edition is not a clean install [12:07] I see [12:08] selam millet [12:08] ikonia: i don't have high speed connection and i can't download from repository [12:08] ssh is crazy. I can browse the internet at home when im somewhere with my netbook, and noone would be the wiser [12:08] helps alot when you have a strict college network policy [12:08] GSF1200S: its good fun, you can use many thin clients and do what you are doing to make system deployment VERY easy :D [12:09] thin clients? [12:09] you mean if I copy all my home folder to newly installed 9.04, I can affect 9.04? Probably you are right. All the .xsomething files may be different in Ultimate Edition. [12:09] OK [12:09] have to look it up... [12:09] ikonia: what? [12:09] OK I will copy only the documents and reconfigure what I will have to reconfigure [12:10] vega-: ? [12:10] Guest52695: sounds better [12:10] Guest52695: you will need to chown the files to the new username (even if its identically named). Ultimate is not supported here as it is not an official release [12:10] 14:05 < ikonia> vega-: the ubuntu repositories [12:10] ActionParsnip, holy crap! Thats amazing!! [12:10] Guest52695: you may want to back up your /etc folder too [12:10] hi a tous [12:10] GSF1200S: ? [12:10] thanks, I see. I didn'T KNOW. Thx, [12:10] !ultimate | Guest52695 [12:10] Guest52695: The following are some examples of Ubuntu derived distributions that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes; please consult their websites for more information: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), Ultimate Edition [12:10] ActionParsnip, using a thin client deployment [12:11] pshr_: please join #ubuntu-ops [12:11] hi, i have installed lm-sensors and i get 3 temperatures, but i dont konw what they mean.. i want to know for what parts of my computer the temperatures are [12:11] i'd like to know the temperature of my processor [12:11] GSF1200S: yes, if yuo have many you will benefit from a gigabit LAN, then the users can simply launch an SSH connection and run the apps on the server, again if there are many you wil need a beefy server to handle [12:12] ActionParsnip, indeed. I didnt even know that was possible.. [12:12] GSF1200S: new systems can simply be dropped in and need very little in the way of config [12:12] ActionParsnip, I can imagine... [12:12] OK I will backup also /etc [12:13] hye all wsup [12:13] !hi | jimbeam12 [12:13] jimbeam12: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out.

[12:13] wats new today? [12:14] GSF1200S: so if you folks want a PC for web browsing, you can buy a thin client instead and use your PCs power (as long as it isnt a low power system itself) [12:15] rob__F: that is possible, but be prepared for issues with the bootloader. That will be a bit tricky to set up [12:15] Hello [12:15] stefg!!! Thank you!!! Then it's NOT just me!!! [12:15] hey actionparsnip [12:15] Grub is being a major problem... [12:15] hi jimbeam12 [12:16] I installed Karmic Beta last night, and bootchart, and I have a 1:15 boot time. What happened?

I got an i7 system with plenty of storage space, so that would work well [12:16] just the usual action ...drinking bourbon and coke..heheh [12:16] GSF1200S: lots of ram, nippy HDD? [12:16] rob__F: the bootloader will install itself in the mbr of the internal disk, and look for it's config files on the external. so if you disconnect the external hd, you box won't boot [12:17] ActionParsnip, 6GB DDR3 1600mhz, 2 TB 7200RPM RAID 0 [12:17] GSF1200S: that'll be fine [12:18] hi... i cannot format a partition with gparted and mkfs.ext3 , both tells me "system is using this partition" - what's going on here??? [12:18] Could up to 12 in the future if necessary on the ram [12:18] raven: the partition is mounted [12:18] stefg: I disconnected the internal HD when I installed it yesterday...and then reconnected it when I went to boot the new installation from the external and still no go.. [12:18] GSF1200S: see how it runs, only upgrade if yuo have to [12:18] raven: run: mount you can then umount the partition [12:18] ActionParsnip, Yeah [12:18] ActionParsnip, no it has no files-system and has just been partitioned [12:19] rob__F: so what happens exactly ? [12:19] raven: or you can run: lsof | grep e.g lsof | grep sd3 === adam is now known as Guest31978 [12:20] stefg: the latest scenario is that when I use a live CD...I can see that I have successfully installed 9.04 to the external drive (eg., all the files are there), but when I force the puter to boot from that drive (after reconnecting the internal), the puter just "hangs"...

[12:21] In any event, I just thought I'd stop in...and I may very well be back later today in my continuing attempts to get this fixed...

[12:22] lstarnes,yes [12:22] rob__F: to diagnose that you would need to have both disks connected and boot with a Live CD and join here when in the Live-CD environment [12:22] cgroza: I have no issue with iptables [12:22] cgroza: iptables and ufw are installed by default [12:22] Hello what is the standard vnc client that comes with Ubuntu version 9.0.4? What port does it use? [12:22] cgroza: graphical frontends include firestarter and gufw [12:22] ActionParsnip, this is an extra drive - gparted made a new partition table (it told me) but still there seems to be any data from raid [12:23] lstarnes,thanks to all...

[13:13] there are no name servers? [13:14] boiinngboiing1: i'd set up a router/firewall appliance (either soft- or hardware) that has QOS and bandwiith peering. the gateway needs to manage that, nothing you can really do on the client machines.

[14:51] yea scunizi, just depends what way he wants to go i guess [14:51] personal preference i guess [14:51] scunizi, just cut and past all the files in the root partition to another one?

[14:55] infexion: local tab [14:55] it says no its a compiz theme i downloaded [14:55] Fatboy: sounds like you do not have the right drivers [14:55] How can I get any Ubuntu game to run in a Window if it doesnt have a window option in the game itself [14:55] system404: if you extract it, what files does it contain? [14:56] zen|tao: there are no tabs [14:56] Fatboy: although you could also not have the card installed properly [14:56] system404: download a gnome (metacity) theme - compiz will use whatever theme you have selected [14:56] scunizi, spent most of my weekend getting programs that didn't want to work working.........its amazing how mentally taxing debugging is, isn't it? [14:56] ok i will download them ones [14:56] brig: i found that a lot of people have the same problem (ubuntuforums). [14:56] am i a root now.

[14:56] aboanas93: there is only one root [14:56] i know [14:57] zen|tao: gnome desktop on Ubuntu 9.10 [14:57] Fatboy: ok... then you should see if you can find the proper driver, and post on forums so the next guy does not have the same problem [14:57] !karmic | infexion [14:57] infexion: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [14:57] shaullx: nomatter where you are this typically an easy way to get ahold of the image.. to make a new partition and copy the file to it you'll have to investigate.. they are simple commands and you should know them/learn them. Step by step would take too long [14:57] Fatboy: be sure to check the card is working and installed properly [14:58] nutterpc: yep. this guy was having this issue 12 hrs ago and he's still banging the same drum [14:58] anyone know of a good place to find cool animated gif effects?

[15:01] xfce is ok with smaller amounts of ram, fluxbox isn't always good for beginner users [15:01] smc: your pissing in the wind with kde - use something lighter [15:01] how come flash sound doesn't work on websites? is it something to do with the flash plugin? i can't hear my youtube videos... yet i'm able to hear sound played from the hdd.

I thought it was. Hm. [16:28] Zikey: Try in file-roller [16:28] I'm sure I've done this before. === S is now known as kanus [16:29] I'm console only, no GUI :) [16:29] Olivier83, you are still running an older kernel, maybe your sound issues are caused by a later kernel version? [16:29] Zikey: you're not making this easy :P. Let me have a quick look around. [16:29] which is why i use 'mc' for all my filesystem escapades. just easier with the lynx-like movements [16:30] trijntje last night i update and my system crash when i boot it back on lost sounds so i did not mather [16:30] Dr_Willis: Did you die? [16:30] hehehe [16:30] seems to be "ar" archived files... [16:31] Olivier83, can you give more details about the crash? [16:32] got it, thx for trying MenZa :) [16:32] Zikey: I *just* found it myself. Np though :) [16:33] Hi! I'm using Ubuntu netbook remix, and I'd like to get a certain program to show maxized to full screen. Problem is, UNR reserves the top 40 or so pixels for the top panel and window top decoration... how can I make the window show its contents at full screen? simple solution would be to allow me to move the window just a bit beyond the screen top border [16:33] Is anyone else really having problems with Karmic and Empathy? [16:33] hello, is there a command line tool that can eliminate double line of a textfile? can sed do this? [16:33] trijntje last night crash i was watching a movie while i was switching the theme of ubuntu then every thing froze so i power my pc from my tower went i reboot no sounds [16:34] trijntje went i first try 9. [16:34] redcard: #ubuntu+1 for Karmic, please [16:34] trijntje went i first try 9.04 i reboot the i lost sounds [16:34] MenZa: AH! thanks :) [16:35] adnc: unique [16:35] Ileden: Try toggling on Autohide for top panel? [16:36] what? [16:36] trijntje one time i decrease the sounds using the hotkey on my keyboard then i increase it lost sounds [16:36] adnc: uniq that should be [16:36] hey, I am not all that familiar with Linux, but I set up my kids computer with Xubuntu. They somehow managed to remove the top and bottom "menu" bar on the desktop. How do I restore them? [16:36] you are wrong [16:37] leaf-sheep: i don't think it works like that in Ubuntu Netbook Remix - besides I'd like the panel to work as normal usually [16:37] ciao === anthony is now known as Guest17129 [16:37] !list [16:37] This is not a file sharing channel (or network). If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » [16:37] what are good tools to monitor and trouble shoot a faulty network connection I randomly loose connectivity [16:37] Olivier83, hmm, sounds like a lot is wrong.. I dont know how to fix that. [16:37] /msg ubottu !bot [16:37] Ileden: Some application allows full screen binded to F11. Try and press F11 and see if that works for you. [16:38] trijntje no bodies know how that why i want to make a backup of my sounds setting [16:38] Olivier83, try asking: When I reboot 9.04 I lose ALSA audio, how can I debug this? [16:38] leaf-sheep: nope, and the application doesn't have any full-screen otpino in the menu either. [16:38] Olivier83, it has go nothing to do with backupping sound settings [16:39] trijntje if i lost it with the backup i can but it back ou no!! [16:39] Ileden: Well -- I'm not sure how to achieve full-screen. There always are devilspie but I suppose it'd be hassle for one application. Reduce the top panel or something similar. :o [16:40] Olivier83, I dont understand what you are saying. I think ALSA breaks somehow, its not the case that your settings get lost during reboot [16:41] trijntje: Try "sudo alsactl init" [16:41] leaf-sheep, not me, Olivier83 has the problem ;) [16:42] leaf-sheep: I really don't know how to do that in UNR. the panel isn't very normal ubuntu :) [16:42] leaf-sheep HDA-Intel" "Realtek ALC880" "HDA:10ec0880,08600000,00090000" "" "" [16:42] Hardware is initialized using a guess method === kb is now known as Guest50756 [16:43] Ileden: I don't use UNR much. I'd always resort back to desktop. :) [16:43] IS ther t a Ubuntu Netboork Remix specific channel I could asko about this, or is this the right place? [16:43] Olivier83: Sound work now? [16:43] leaf-sheep great just by doing that i lost my sounds [16:43] Ileden: There are also #ubuntu-mobile [16:44] Olivier83: Run "alsamixer" -- Set all bars to high. Toggle 'm' to unmute any blue/gray boxes to Green 00. [16:44] And ESC to save out. [16:45] leaf-sheep before i did what u told me "sudo alsactl init" i got sounds after that it gone [16:46] Olivier83: It's likely that the sound are low or muted. [16:46] Olivier83: Run the command and set everything to its fullest. [16:46] Can I add swap file in my OpenVZ Ubuntu VPS ? [16:46] ActionParsnip: <3 [16:46] yo yo yo [16:47] leaf-sheep please take the time to read what im saying because of your command i lost my sounds!! [16:47] Olivier83: does it come back after a reboot? [16:48] Olivier83: I know. I'm telling you to check alsamixer because the sounds are likely to be on low or muted. [16:49] ActionParsnip: yep it on but if i reboot and it not on it lost forever i guess [16:49] /join #fu-se-mote fuse2009 [16:49] Olivier83: not forever, you can reconfigure [16:50] leaf-sheep it back on don't know how [16:50] ActionParsnip: ive been here a couple of time went it was gone and nobody know how to get back on [16:50] hi all [16:51] i login in text mode to system and change xorg.conf file but when i reboot system all my change return to initial status.how i can solve this? [16:51] Olivier83, lost forever? Reinstalling is always an alternative [16:51] can someone tell me what you call the bar that goes across the top and bottom of the desktop? [16:51] ActionParsnip: but now it working and i want to keep it that way how is what i ask!!!!!!! [16:51] roffe, he already tried that several times [16:51] seyDoggy: Panels. [16:51] a panel [16:52] leaf-sheep: tnx [16:52] roffe yeah reinstall every days is not fun [16:52] * leaf-sheep goes away [16:52] Olivier83: Anything else? You got sounds working now, right? [16:52] Olivier83, people are still trying to find out what the problem is. After they find out they can tell you how to fix it [16:53] How can I hide my Rhythmbox icon in the notification area on my panel? [16:53] trijntje what do you mean that people still searching to how to save or backup sounds setting [16:54] foundry87: sudo apt-get install alltray [16:54] Olivier83, no. Your problem is that sound is not working, not that the sound settings get lost [16:54] foundry87: you can then press alt+f2, type alltray and hit enter, then click the rhythmbox app [16:55] foundry87: you can also launch it there with: alltray rhythmbox and it will startup in the tray [16:55] ActionParsnip: Okay I'll try that [16:55] trijntje if i make a backup of all ubuntu can this help or this does not mather [16:55] what file do i have to edit to get aliases to work the .bashrc in my home dir doesn't do anything [16:56] Olivier83, do you speak french? [16:56] roffe oui monsieur [16:56] ActionParsnip: Sorry, I may not have been clear enough. It's not that I want to hide/show the Rhtymbox window, I want to hide the icon that is in the notification area. [16:57] hi guys...i've got a basic command line only version of hardy installed - how do i upgrade this to karmic - is it just a case of sudo apt-get -u dist-upgrade ? [16:57] Olivier83, no, the program that plays sounds on ubuntu doesnt work properly. So when the program is broken the settings dont matter at all ;) [16:57] !upgrade | gregsp___ [16:57] gregsp___: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [16:57] Olivier83, #ubuntu-fr [16:57] trijntje what can cause the program to broke [16:57] i have developed an app under linux to be used on a single windows xp computer by a non-profit group -- python isn't installed on their computer -- can i build an windows executable? should i install python and move the source files? [16:57] gregsp___: you can't go from hardy to karmic, you would be better off doing a clean install of karmic [16:58] Olivier83, i dont know that, sorry. Other people might know. I have to go [16:59] roffe thank but there a lot more people that speak english so faster respond [16:59] Could anyone tell me where a channel for avidemux support might be? [16:59] trijntje where i can get that programme to reinstall it [17:00] i just want a command line only version of karmic - i only need it for one package!! usbip! [17:00] I'm using Ubuntu Netbook Remix, and it's preventing me from moving windows over the top panel, or beyond the top boundary of the screen. I'd like to be able to do this - does anyone know how to change the setting? [17:01] Ileden: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager, the go to system >> preferences >> compizconfig settings manager and change there [17:02] hola [17:02] BlouBlou: Does UNR use compiz? [17:02] Hi, I'm having some trouble setting up ssh server, I get "connection refused" but my router tells me I am forwarding ports properly. Can someone take a look at http://i33.tinypic.com/2mi4v2x.jpg and see if I'm doing something obviously wrong? [17:02] !es > rasta [17:02] rasta, please see my private message [17:02] I'm on it mike [17:02] Ileden: I think so [17:02] BlouBlou: Ok, I'll see... [17:02] I thought UNR did NOT use compiz. the netbook interface has issues with compiz. [17:03] hi5 [17:03] hi [17:03] Mike_lifeguard: What ssh server are you using? [17:03] but i used the UNR inteface logn enough to learn how to get to a real gnome desktop. :) [17:03] Mike_lifeguard: What router are you using? What ip address does the router forward the port to? [17:04] ActionParsnip: trijntje tell me that the program that plays sounds on ubuntu doesnt work properly can i make a backup of it because now it working proprely [17:04] Mike_lifeguard: Your diagram BTW looks good besides being a little vague. :) [17:04] edbian: openssh-server & the router is a linksys w54gsomethingsomething - it is supposedly forwarding port 10022 to 192.168.1.100, which would be correct if it worked :\ [17:04] how much space does a new ubuntu desktop install take? [17:05] Mike_lifeguard: in your diagram you have the modem subnet at 192.168.2.1 and the routerr at 192.168.1.1 I would think that even with dhcp the router should be at 192,168,2.# [17:05] tjz2: 3-5 GBs [17:05] Dr_Willis: Good point. :) But UNR interface does have its benefits too [17:05] Why isnt ubuntu modular, like fedora. I prefer ubuntu, but package selection would be just awesome [17:05] Olivier83: not sure bro, sorry [17:05] syslq: it is... [17:05] scunizi: I'll double-check the internal IPs, but I think that is correct... [17:05] syslq: it is modular, they are both Linux and therefor the same OS. [17:05] syslq: just a different distribution [17:05] syslq: try tasksel [17:06] Mike_lifeguard: It is possible that your ISP blocks that port. This is what I suspect to be happening. The rest of your setup appears to be correct to me. [17:06] ActionParsnip: linux is not an operating system, sorry, they are not the same os [17:06] Mike_lifeguard: k .. are you trying to get in from outside your lan? and are you using an http address from dyndns or the direct IP assigned to your modem? [17:06] jrib: how can I slect packages in package installer? [17:06] !software > syslq [17:06] syslq, please see my private message [17:06] Mike_lifeguard: Use this website to test for open ports. http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/port-scanner/ I don't think you have to have a server answering you on that port I think the port simply has to be "open" :) [17:06] syslq: they both use the kernel from kernel.org. The kernel is the thing that makes it "Linux" [17:06] Ileden: i couldent stand it. :) but there seems tobe 3+ netbook ui's in the works now.. [17:07] scunizi: No, I'm on the LAN right now. I have tried both the domain name and the external IP - these both return "connection refused" (but the internal IP works, so I know sshd is running + configured ok) [17:07] jrib: speaking of modular, I'm refering to package selection at install time, not removing it latter, fedora has that anyway thanks [17:07] syslq: ni essence they are the same OS. If you were to say BSD, that is a different OS. Ubuntu and redhat are linux, just like mandriva and puppy. Redhat is just a different distribution [17:08] !minimal | syslq [17:08] syslq: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [17:08] ActionParsnip: well I disagree since I was thought that linux is kernel but hey, it's not that important :) [17:08] edbian: "isn't responding" on that port, it says...? :\ [17:08] syslq: true [17:09] is this diffie hallman certificate gonna take all day to create? [17:09] Mike_lifeguard: you can't test the external IP access from inside of the LAN because the router will see that as spoofing. You need to visit your neighbor to test [17:09] syslq: but they are as modular as each other [17:09] Mike_lifeguard: Why are you using 10022 and not simply 22? === a1g_ is now known as Guest90778 [17:09] jrib: yeah but things are still tied to ubuntu-desktop metapackage. Mah, it's not really important, I just dislike brasero :) it's cool for wasting cd's :) [17:09] ActionParsnip: yeah linux systems are very modular by nature [17:09] edbian: because nonstandard port numbers are supposedly (marginally) more secure [17:09] scunizi: Mike_lifeguard: Only some routers would see that as spoofing. I happen to have the same one as Mike_lifeguard and it did not do that. [17:10] Mike_lifeguard: ic [17:10] syslq: theres always ULite if you want a lite system, you will get a VERY minimal terminal OS, yuo can then sling LXDE on it and have a stupendously light system [17:10] Mike_lifeguard: Isn't responding means blocked I'm pretty sure [17:10] ActionParsnip: nah, I like full desktop (gnome) I dont want to spend too much time with my wks [17:10] Mike_lifeguard: edbian a test might be to try to set the machine in a DMZ (router option) and test again [17:11] scunizi: Mike_lifeguard: that is a good idea. [17:11] edbian: There is an option to "filter internet NAT redirection" - but the documentation on that is crap. I can't tell whether checked means we're allowing NAT redirection, or if *un*checked means we're allowing NAT redirection. [17:11] syslq: its a serving suggestion to consider :) [17:11] ActionParsnip: mhm [17:11] Mike_lifeguard: If NAT were turned off the system in question would not have access to the internet. [17:12] hey is there a 9.10 beta support channel? [17:12] edbian, scunizi: Thanks for your help, I will switch to another network and try ssh from there & maybe I will be back.

[18:23] infexion, on jaunty i'm using the vga= kernel parameter to get usplash working on my note's native resolution, but on karmic, i can't set that thing up :S... truly usplash not even loads in any resolution at the early boot before xsplash (but it works like a chram on the karmic live cd boot) [18:23] http://www.pabr.org/sixlinux/sixlinux.en.html - trying to get my sixaxis working as a mouse on ubuntu [18:24] hi folks, i'm trying to get php 5.3 working using the instructions at http://www.danielsmedegaardbuus.dk/2008-10-19/how-to-create-deb-packages-for-php-53-and-php-60/ to build it from source and create a .deb package, and everything seems to be working including the install of php except that *.php files are not being executed unless they're the index file, for whatever reason. i've manually put the appropriate FilesMatch -> SetHa [18:24] ndler lines in place, and the php module is loading, but *.php files from the server (and yes, i am loading them through apache, not opening them locally) are prompting for a download instead of parsing and displaying; any ideas? [18:24] Spoom: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [18:24] cyber_666_uk: Use Synaptic to find it. Then it's sudo apt-get install [appname] [18:24] Or use Synaptic [18:24] Is there a way to set up a private chat ? [18:24] hi [18:24] Can anyone help me? I'm trying to condense the Applications/Places/System Menu headers into the ubuntu button to free up some space on my panel. I'm using 9.04. [18:24] bebak...gonna check out pocketguide...thankx [18:24] u-foka: give me a second to look something up [18:25] !karmic [18:25] Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [18:25] infexion, okay, I'm waiting and thanks for the help! [18:25] jacktim: customize your menu by removing things you don't need, re-organize simply by right clicking on the menu and selecting edit menus [18:25] jacktim: Right click the menu item in your Gnome panel (instead of just clicking), and click on edit menus [18:25] can someone please help me with "could not initialize the package information"? [18:25] in place of helping with getting the built .deb working, if anyone knows where i can get good .deb files for php 5.3 i'll take those too (there aren't any currently in jaunty or karmic afaik) === togepi|sleep is now known as togepi [18:25] I mean on the "launching button" [18:26] if i wanna upgrade my ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 since my audio wont work, will that 1) help? 2) be possible with an alternate install-cd? [18:26] thx jonathan [18:26] GodfatherofEire, sorry [18:26] "E: type deb is not known" ? [18:26] Where can i download the ubuntu 9.10 beta dvd iso? [18:26] u-foka, for what? [18:27] karmic question :P [18:27] Spoom, http://newyork.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1213337 <--- deb for php 5.3 [18:27] anyone === Jolteon is now known as WB2Colorado [18:27] @ Tyler_dl & Jonathan_L: I've worked on the menus getting everything that I didn't want out of them... I'm trying to push the part of it that says: "Applications, Places, system" to where I would click on the menu button (next to applications) in order to show them up above it... kind of like Windows. [18:27] u-foka: the problem is there are a lot of things they have disabled in Karmic Koala because of security issues so there may be something in there that Usplash needs but it cannot access because it is either not there or inaccessible [18:27] mrwes, thanks, but the link doesn't work [18:27] Spoom, shoot -- bad link, damn. [18:27] can someone please help me with "could not initialize the package information"? "E: type deb is not known" ? [18:27] I am not sure how to get vsFTPd to work on PORT mode. I've got it working on PASV mode but everytime I try to use PORT it says that I should consider using PASV and the directory listing is denied. This is both with anonymous and local account access. [18:27] yah..heh [18:27] jacktim: There's another Gnome panel applet for that [18:27] Does anyone know where i can download the ubuntu gnome 9.10 beta dvd?? [18:28] u-foka, no worries, I actually just was tryin to find out what the channel was for karmic myself [18:28] u-foka: I very well may be wrong but I am not sure what to say about it. [18:28] Spoom, why not compile it? [18:28] Just remove the current one and add the one name something like ... [18:28] mrwes, that's what i'm doing atm [18:28] ? [18:28] i'm just trying to get the native jaunty apache2 to play nice with it === ReVoLt is now known as ReVoLt112 [18:28] u-foka: there are several things I have tried to do with 9.10 that I cannot do because it is still in testing. [18:28] can someone please help me with "could not initialize the package information"? "E: type deb is not known" ? [18:28] it's loading the compiled php module and the extensions, it just won't parse .php files for whatever reason [18:28] jacktim: Main Menu [18:28] infexion, thanks anyway! i'l keep trying :) [18:28] Spoom, use sudo checkinstall -- it'll create a deb for ya and it's easier to manage that way [18:28] i wish i can download the dvd [18:28] jacktim or similiar [18:28] !checkinstall | Spoom [18:28] Spoom: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! [18:28] mrwes, yep, i did that, it's in the instructions i initially linked [18:29] i have a .deb now [18:29] i installed it [18:29] :) [18:29] apache2 just won't parse .php files for whatever reason [18:29] ?????????? [18:29] i'm likely missing something in my apache2.conf somewhere [18:29] i just need some hints [18:29] hello [18:29] Spoom, I'm not help there, I don't have a web server [18:29] u-foka: yeah sorry I could not help. Good luck to ya. [18:30] How can I set ubuntu to get a static IP from my router, which would otherwise use DHCP? [18:30] Could 'make && sudo make install && checkinstall' work? [18:30] mrwes, well, thanks anyway, i appreciate the attempt [18:30] Spoom: is php5 installed? (The package normally adds its self to the apache config) [18:30] Mike_lifeguard, does your router have a static IP option? My linksys does, so I assign the IP's from there [18:30] hi [18:30] Or better: 'make && checkinstall && sudo apt-get install [outputfile?]' work? [18:31] Biovore, i had to remove the php5 package from the jaunty apt database and create my own, using the instructions at http://www.danielsmedegaardbuus.dk/2008-10-19/how-to-create-deb-packages-for-php-53-and-php-60/ [18:31] Is there a guide to packaging things nicely anywhere? [18:31] Jonathan_L, that's basically what i did [18:31] Spoom: did you a2enmod php yet? [18:31] hrmm [18:31] I'm trying to install 9.10 beta and when the screen comes up, I select "Install Ubuntu" as opposed to "Try Ubuntu without changing your computer" and The installation takes awhile then it goes into Live anyways. I then open up the "Install 9.10" Icon on the Live desktop andit seems to work, but when it gets to the "Install Ubuntu" phase after I enter all my info, the install program just closes =/ [18:31] maybe it did create a mod [18:31] mrwes: not that I know of, but linkysys said that if your computer asks for an IP outside the DHCP range, it'll get that IP... so you just need to set the computer to always request the same IP [18:31] that'd be nice [18:31] * Spoom checks [18:31] if i wanna upgrade my ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 since my audio wont work, will that 1) help? 2) be possible with an alternate install-cd? [18:31] Is there a way to install it without live running? [18:31] * jacktim has to remember to start using synaptics package manager... the add/remove app is slow on download. [18:32] spoom: What's the name of the output file? Where does it come from? [18:32] Mike_lifeguard, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/change-ubuntu-system-from-dhcp-to-a-static-ip-address.html [18:33] any JACK server gurus around with experience using Rosegarden in a Gnome environment (9.04)? [18:33] !karmic | ryguy === Lartza_ is now known as Lartza_away [18:33] ryguy: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [18:33] mrwes: great, thanks [18:33] gee thanks [18:33] Mike_lifeguard, I'd use nano to edit instead of vi :) [18:33] unless you're OK with vi [18:33] mrwes: so would I :) [18:33] heh [18:33] Jonathan_L, i've now enabled the php5 mod but it's doing much the same thing [18:34] ryguy: Well, we don't talk about karmic here. Go to #ubuntu+1, they're more likely to know anyway. [18:34] it parses php if it's in an index.php file accessed through the directory (but not remotely), but for whatever reason won't parse normal .php files === codename is now known as Guest39017 [18:34] it displays those as downloads [18:34] (and the download is the source code, not the output) [18:34] So I did a big no-no last night. I spilt my drink all over my laptop keyboard. The laptop turned off, and I immediately turned it upside down on my couch and removed the battery from it. Today I tried turning it on and nothing. When I put the battery in and plug the AC adapter in, the charging indicator light comes on. Is there any chance for me? [18:35] Spoom: reinstall [18:35] r_a_f, reinstall what? [18:35] php [18:35] and mod [18:35] Hi again! [18:35] Can someone advise re. this. I was able to run that exact command on another hardy box 2 minutes ago. http://pastebin.com/m72a1f533 [18:35] i'd rather not compile php5.3 again if i can avoid it :^) [18:36] besides, it is parsing sometimes [18:36] If I misstakenly mounted a device as root, but want to be able to mount it as normal user when I plug it in next time, what do I do? [18:36] i just need to figure out why it's not parsing all the time [18:36] Spoom: that usually means PHP is segfaulting [18:36] Spoom: what does the error log say? [18:36] Trying to listen to Giants audio stream and it is not working. MPlayer installed as Firefox plug-in? [18:36] hrmm [18:36] * Spoom checks [18:36] Is there any way to load another kernel into Ubuntu without having to re-install the whole system (specifically the LUK) [18:36] Spoom: it could be many things [18:36] Spoom: even Apache modules [18:37] ghostknife, have you tried apt-get install g++ to see if that will resolve the g++ issues? [18:37] nothing indicating a segfault of php [18:37] http://www.giants.com/gamefeed09player.asp [18:37] lemme see if i can run it locally on cli [18:37] uh_oh: yes. It says the same. Besides, I have g++ installed. [18:37] yes, i can [18:37] and the file is a simple that i'm using to test [18:37] very hard to find pair of Nike trainers, I have wore my last pair to the ground, properly down, and I couldn't find another pair to replace them, someones gone to a massive ammount trouble to get them for me./window 37 [18:38] so i doubt that's causing a segfault just because it's loading through apache [18:38] Spoom: turn on severe logging, and tail both the host's access and error log. then do the request. once the download window came up, save the file somewhere and paste the newly printed lines of the error log. [18:38] Spoom: with severe logging, I mean "trace" or "debug" [18:38] Spoom: i have this many times - just reistall [18:38] Spoom: you can try to reinstall. it might be a corrupt binary [18:39] Spoom: did you build PHP yourself? [18:39] a corrupt binary that i compiled? [18:39] yes [18:39] read the link i posted [18:39] i'm building a .deb in lieu of any officially provided ones since neither jaunty nor karmic have php 5.3 yet [18:39] 1 module is shit - dont know whom [18:39] <[t0rc]> My wireless in Ubuntu drops every so often (repeated, consistent) however it's not the router - Windows works fine. Any suggestions or things i can check when it drops to see what is causing it? [18:40] ok, let me disable all extensions then and see if that helps [18:40] ghostknife, have you tried autoremove and then reinstalling g++ (I know that's a very Windows-y answer, but it might work) === wertik__rus is now known as wertik_rus [18:40] uh_oh: autoremove? [18:40] noones even remotely helping me in there [18:40] I'm trying to install 9.10 beta and when the screen comes up, I select "Install Ubuntu" as opposed to "Try Ubuntu without changing your computer" and The installation takes awhile then it goes into Live anyways. I then open up the "Install 9.10" Icon on the Live desktop andit seems to work, but when it gets to the "Install Ubuntu" phase after I enter all my info, the install program just closes =/ [18:41] ryguy: it's beta. [18:41] hmm [18:41] ryguy: try checking the error. ctrl+alt+f1/f2/f3 until you see it [18:41] k [18:41] removing extensions did nothing (but cause errors with mysql_* not being available) but i just noticed something [18:41] ghostknife, sudo apt-get autoremove removes old unneeded packages/dependencies. [18:41] Anyone have any suggestions on downloading a lot of the listed packages in the add/remove app? Because the base add/remove app downloads slow. [18:41] accessing index.php directly works [18:41] accessing test.php directly does not [18:41] jackson, use sudo apt-get install [18:42] uh_oh: lets hope my machine still stands when I get there tomorrow morning [18:42] accessing the directory to get the output of index.php also works [18:42] sudo apt-get install thing1 thing2 thing3, etc. [18:42] Is there any task manager in Ubuntu 9.04? [18:42] ghostknife, haha it should. [18:42] so it's not an extension crapping out on me [18:42] hmm, I did my whole backup-and-restore thing, and had to manually recreate /dev and /sys and /proc ..... but now I need to know: [18:43] unless somehow phpinfo() is causing php to crash, which i highly doubt [18:43] uh_oh: nah, that didn't help [18:43] uh_oh: it's not a big deal. I'm upgrading to 9.04 next weekend anyways [18:43] Do any of you have an inactive Linux partition (that is, /sys and /proc and /dev not mounted)? [18:43] (evidence: it works fine in cli) [18:43] I have python 2.6.2 installed, how can I downgrade that to 2.6.0? [18:43] ghostknife: It says that the application packages arnt on the cd.. [18:43] I need to see what the permissions are on those three dirs. [18:43] DanaG: yes [18:43] So just using terminal and manually selecting each one? [18:43] ghostknife: I did a cd verify though and it came up with nothing [18:43] ryguy: hmm. interesting. how full is the disc? [18:43] ghostknife, alright. Hope that fixes it. [18:43] What is Knotify? === gewt is now known as sasl [18:44] ghostknife: it had a few kilobytes of freespace on it [18:44] ggcc, I've got linux to win ok, but not the other way [18:44] So how do I share a Linux computer's internet connection in a network? [18:44] ryguy: yes, that is a severe problem. clearly a bug. [18:45] how do i use sftp to upload a dir? [18:45] ghostknife: should I report it? Is there a way to install without live? [18:46] !karmic | ryguy [18:46] ryguy: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [18:46] ryguy: no. the installation is simply a program in live [18:46] how should i view the running processes or jobs? [18:46] LjL: I was just in there everyone is ignoringme [18:46] !tell Fezzler about Knotify [18:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about Knotify [18:46] and yes, Ubuntu can be installed without a live CD. [18:46] !alternate [18:46] The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal [18:46] !patience [18:46] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait.

[18:47] indeed [18:47] anyways, I guess imma try to burn a new cd or something [18:47] ttyl [18:47] thanks [18:47] q. what is the package to get all the manpage for syscall ? [18:47] anyways thank you. === sasl is now known as gewt [18:48] uh_oh>>Can't get this to stream http://www.giants.com/gamefeed09player.asp [18:48] hmm [18:48] anyone have some advice with regard to my situation other than "just do what you did already again"? i tailed the apache error log but there was no php-related errors [18:48] jetienne: manpages-dev [18:48] greetings all [18:48] it's just not loading php for *.php files === jean is now known as Guest63248 [18:49] Nothing about internet connection sharing? I'm leaving soon! [18:49] Jonathan_L: cu ;) [18:49] !ics | Jonathan_L [18:49] Jonathan_L: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php [18:49] !inetsharing | Jonathan_L [18:49] are there any programs in ubuntu that can handle st://  links [18:49] LjL: thanks [18:50] Gaaah, Firefox crashed [18:50] (before I got the link) [18:50] anyone want to explain how i can remove a package from shell? [18:50] or without getting into the GUI... [18:50] or disable it even [18:50] ok, well, thanks for the attempts, if all else fails i'll make clean and recompile overnight tonight (since php takes foreeeever to compile) but i still seriously, seriously doubt that it's php that's crashing [18:50] siinz, a deb package? [18:51] siinz: sudo apt-get remove (or purge) packagename [18:51] my wifi signal seems weaker in ubuntu then it was on win7 does it make sense? [18:51] what llutz said :) [18:51] Spoom: it is [18:51] ghostknife, how can you be sure? [18:51] okay then can someone give me the name of the ATI x.org driver package [18:51] lol [18:51] Spoom: it means the execution stopped unexpectadly, and it never completed sending the headers [18:51] i cant get in far enough to see it [18:51] Spoom: that's why the download pops up [18:51] ghostknife: what did you mean by "yes"? is /dev there, or not there? [18:52] ghostknife, but would that output the source of the file? [18:52] Spoom: what URL do you use to access it? [18:52] DanaG: yes it is [18:52] http://domain.tld/test.php [18:52] DanaG: though it's empty [18:52] DanaG: /dev is not empty [18:52] DanaG: but /sys and /proc is [18:52] hmm, what's in /dev? [18:52] are there any programs in ubuntu that can handle st://  links/ [18:52] (and this is the inactive one, right?) [18:52] ? [18:52] DanaG: dev files, like a normal installation [18:53] weird... I'd expect it to be empty when not mounted. [18:53] DanaG: yes. though not all files are there. some dynamic files like I have for flash disks aren't there [18:53] DanaG: it depends on the /dev subsystem [18:53] DanaG: some of them create files and leave them there, others clean it up (memory fs) [18:53] DanaG: udev vs devfs [18:54] weird. Would you mind pastebinning "ls -l" in there? (I'm assuming udev.) [18:54] anyone know how can i make the wifi indicator light work? [18:54] hey all, i was just wondering if anyone has knowledge of triple boot systems and boot managers that could help me out. [18:54] hello, anyone know how to close all windows (without logging out) or have a script [18:54] GRUB can triple boot [18:54] DanaG: hold a sec [18:54] or supergrub [18:54] !supergrub [18:54] Sorry, I don't know anything about supergrub [18:54] DanaG: it's a remote machine, need to login first [18:54] er [18:55] DanaG: And for that I need to jump 3 other machines. So it might take a few minutes [18:55] hi! can anyone help me connect network between my local linux apps on jaunty amd64 and xp ones running under virtualbox 3.06? thx [18:55] ghostknife, i'm accessing the php script through apache, like i said, http://domain.tld/test.php , i'm not accessing it through file:// or anything like that [18:55] mrwes: i've got a system with XP, Ubuntu 7.10, and Windows 7 [18:55] right now, i'm using the Win 7 boot manager [18:55] hi [18:55] if I happen to upgrade 7.10 to 8.04 using the update manager, will it overwrite the win boot manager? [18:56] ghostknife, i'm not saying that php isn't crashing, for all i know it could be, but it seems very odd that it would work with my much more complicated home page script but not work with a simple phpinfo(); [18:56] further, i'll try just an echo in that file to be sure [18:56] ubuntuz45: No, it will be kept. [18:56] DanaG: hmm. those connections are quiet tonight. that was amazingly quick. here you go: http://pastebin.com/m3c1d6d58 [18:56] Thanks. [18:56] er, need ls -l (lowercase L_ [18:56] DanaG: as you can see that is "/dev" under a directory called "backup", which is where this linux partition is mounted. it's another disc I have in there [18:56] ...and suddenly it's working, including the phpinfo() [18:56] that'll tell me what to mknod. [18:57] DanaG: oh, sorry. hold [18:57] well crap. [18:57] lol [18:57] Jonathan: thanks! is that usually always the case? i just don't want to deal with a broken boot manager that cant access grub and/or win 7 [18:57] bis später [18:57] i guess that's a good thing? we'll see if it's randomly crashing later i spose [18:57] I want to make some transfer rate tests for some hard drives and usb flash drives . . . is there a program for linux that can do that ? (but a better one then hdparm, something that makes read, write tests, from the start of the drive, from the middle, or end . . . ) [18:58] DanaG: why do you need an unmounted one? [18:58] ghostknife, thanks for the help, i appreciate it [18:58] danag: http://pastebin.com/f6cf14c27 [18:58] Spoom: sorry [18:59] not really sure if or why it's actually crashing or what, but i guess we'll see about that later [18:59] hopefully this is enough to use sqlite3 for now [18:59] Spoom: the fact that phpinfo doesn't work is a very good reason [18:59] Spoom: it's then clearly an extension, when queried fails [18:59] Spoom: try rebuilding it with the MINIMAL extensions [18:59] Spoom: only what you need [19:00] Spoom: in fact, try building it with 0 extensions, not even cli, and ONLY apache2 [19:00] Spoom: that build will go quicker [19:00] hmm, weird... you sure it's not mounted? [19:00] Spoom: then start enabling one extension at a time (don't make clean) [19:00] Spoom: and rebuild - will be quick if you don't make clean [19:00] DanaG: yes [19:00] can someone tell me how to use notification-daemon , so I can call it for a certain event ? [19:00] How should I decide which version of NFS I should use? [19:01] DanaG: it's a common thing. udev files stay behind [19:01] DanaG: ask in ##linux if you want to confirm [19:01] can someone tell me how to get a list of installed packages while in shell? [19:01] ah. Does /dev itself have any special permissions? [19:01] DanaG: what is your problem? [19:01] DanaG: drwxr-xr-x 12 root root 20480 2009-07-13 17:59 dev [19:02] Hi everyone, trying out 9.10 atm and cant seem to get my nvidia drivers activated.. does anyone know any page or guide? [19:02] interesting. anyway, the thing that is broken is Karmic, but the question about /dev/, I figured I'd be able to get more help here. [19:02] Thanks for the help. Now to go mess around with karmic on my own. =P [19:02] can someone tell me how to get a list of installed packages while in shell?

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. [23:08] sebsebseb: yeah but why would it work fine in live boot [23:08] eido: not sure [23:08] sebsebseb: you seem to be the smarter one. Do you know about a mindmapping tool for ubuntu? === cody_ is now known as PCTeacher012 [23:09] how do i turn on metacitys compositor? [23:09] i have 3 microsoft operation systems at on hard disk, if a install ubuntu grub should recognize all of than? [23:09] gconf-editor [23:09] dsfagreg: no and I dont' think there is anything in the repo, but you might be able to find one if you search sites such as http://www.sf.net and http://www.freshmeat.net or even Google [23:09] how do i turn on the compositor of metacitY? [23:09] sebsebseb: well when i go home ill look in my computer abd see if ican find w98 in there,,,hey wouldnt it be in my ADD/REMOVE area if i hadnt killed it? [23:10] nooc: yes it probably will [23:10] gconf-editor apps metacity general [23:10] Tare1off: uh no [23:10] I hate to repeat myself, but it seems that my question was passed over. When using GNU screen, I cannot scroll the screen up (using putty to connect remotly). Anyone else have this problem? KNow how to fix it? [23:10] Tare1off: that's a GUI for apt-get which lets you install programs from the Ubuntu repo [23:10] sebsebseb: there's nothing in the repo? Last time I checked there were more than 27000 packages. [23:10] then just check compositing_manager [23:10] dsfagreg: I meant nothing in the repo probably for mind mapping [23:11] sebsebseb: That's a very poor assumption. [23:11] Thank EricTheHax [23:11] dsfagreg: Not every Linux programs in the repo [23:11] np [23:11] Although Cairo Dock still does not work? It has a black box around it [23:12] sebsebseb: There's 27000 packages. Come on, I'm not talking about "every linux program", just ANY mindmapping tool. [23:12] dsfagreg: Cario Dock being an example of a program that isn't in the repo, only saying since PCTeacher012 just now [23:12] sebsebseb: thanks for trying though. [23:12] dsfagreg: you can search synaptic [23:12] dsfagreg: add/remove is basic synaptic package manager is more advanced [23:12] dsfagreg: you probably won't be able to find one though [23:12] sebsebseb: I got it from running sudo apt-get install cairo-dock in terminal. IS that not part of the repos? [23:13] PCTeacher012: oh it's in the repo now? [23:13] sebsebseb: just did, and found 6 mindmapping tools. Yeah right, I didn't find *one*. [23:13] sebsebseb: Yes, i guess it was just currently added [23:13] dsfagreg: apt-cache search mindmap brings up a few candidates for me, I don't know which would be good though [23:13] sebsebseb: no idea bout that, i guess what you are saying is w98 could be in my comuter but i cant see or find it as a newbie puter dork! i will say this my computer only has 3.5 gig on the hard drivr including 810, the 380 upgrades and the 904 upgrade, taking that into consideration could w98 possibly still be there?
