| d9500 | is there a gui package manager frontend that I can use that is more lightweight than synaptic? | 00:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | d9500, not that i'm aware of? Synaptic is on XUbuntu as well as Ubuntu/Kubuntu | 00:51 |
| wuttamelon | what is the difference between kubuntu and unbuntu (newbie with linux) | 00:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | d9500, non-gui apt-get ;) | 00:52 |
| fbianconi | d9500: not a gui exactly, but there's aptitude | 00:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | wuttamelon, the default desktop environment -- ubuntu = gnome, kubuntu = kde | 00:52 |
| laptopfreek0 | wuttamellon kubuntu useses kde | 00:52 |
| d9500 | Zykotic: thanks, been using sudo aptitude to install packages and apt-cache search to find needed ones already. was just wondering if maybe there was a gui frontend. | 00:53 |
| wuttamelon | ahhh alright thanks. | 00:53 |
| d9500 | wuttamelon: to elaborate further, ubuntu and kubuntu are the same thing underneath, but with different desktop environments and default applications. | 00:53 |
| Sagaci | d9500: synaptic package manager? | 00:54 |
| reuben | help, got taskbar thingy on the left, so it shrinks to how many programs ur running, why when i logout and log back in, it centers itself in middle of the screen, but as if it should be on the left hand side | 00:55 |

| GodfatherofEire | thedude42, exactly where would that be | 01:08 |
| GodfatherofEire | and Istarnes, I know that, I need to figure out what script it executes or whatever it does to show the desktop | 01:09 |
| lstarnes | GodfatherofEire: it doesn't use a script | 01:09 |
| lstarnes | GodfatherofEire: or it most likely doesn't | 01:09 |
| lstarnes | GodfatherofEire: as with a lot of other stuff in gnome, it probably sends a call via DBus to the window manager | 01:09 |
| lstarnes | GodfatherofEire: or it might use ICCM (ICCCM?) for that | 01:10 |
| GodfatherofEire | Istarnes, well it has to do it somehow, and whatever way it does it, a gnome-applet uses the same trigger, which is what I need to find | 01:10 |

| ZykoticK9 | jonLappy, only if it's on a separate partition - people will often create a /home partition or another drive so they can do exactly what you're asking about. | 01:13 |

| GodfatherofEire | thedude42, thanks | 01:16 |
| StarLionIsaac | ZykoticK9: well, I was going to try it to see if the rumours were right about it being more win32 app compatible than just wine, but if consensus says to leave it, leave it it is then | 01:17 |

| thedude42 | random777, i suspect that it is because it requires either nvidia, intel or ati hardware, but I can't find any documentation that states what the real requirements are | 01:36 |
| random777 | thedude42: hmm... | 01:37 |
| WiCoder | I put ubuntu on a buddys thumb stick and I'll be damned if it didn't over right the nt loader .. I found a fix where you edit grub and fixed it | 01:37 |

| WiCoder | werfact: find some reference code for what you are trying to do .. look at what is there .. you can find pdf's all over the place I think that start out as a .tor or something and after some time saving them you have a .rar .zip etc extract it and read the pdf | 01:50 |
| zebastian | how do you sudo access a file from your browser | 01:50 |
| Drew3 | random777, Partition where home is located is full, and ther is a partition that empty and waiting, Hmm make 'home' a user and a group? | 01:50 |
| random777 | Drew3: no, i would make sure you got the partitions set up proper, use cfdisk or gparted | 01:51 |

| kandjar | i want to install ubuntu on a pc, it's going to be 90% of the time a server; and will be used as a desktop 10% of the time :) is it better to install ubuntu server and then apt-get gnome-desktop on it? or it is more advice to install ubuntu desktop and then install the server apps on it??? | 01:53 |
| angelus | vistanoload: is your vista partition only ~13 GBs ??? | 01:54 |
| ryknow | hey guys, I'm having trouble with a shared folder. | 01:54 |
| vistanoload | angelus: no, 100 GB | 01:54 |

| dumbby | same as* | 01:56 |
| WiCoder | kandjar: lts is solid but you should be ok with the latest | 01:56 |
| coz_ | dumbby, I believe it is yes | 01:57 |
| coz_ | dumbby, I often get messages while checking my emal by the same people onlylogged into my message app | 01:57 |
| dumbby | coz_, did you use messengers' Google Talk i don't seem to be able to connect | 01:58 |
| coz_ | dumbby, so if you set up your message application with google talk it will show up in google mail | 01:58 |
| angelus | vistanoload: imo that is why its not booting .... when it was being partitioned Vista lost some importatnt files .... and thus isnt loading ... | 01:58 |
| coz_ | dumbby, which application are you using pidgin? | 01:58 |
| zebastian | wrkd | 01:58 |
| dumbby | coz_, i tried pidgin and empathy | 01:58 |
| dumbby | coz_, both fail ~ | 01:58 |
| coz_ | dumbby, hold on I believe there is a how to for pigding and google talk | 01:59 |
| vistanoload | angelus: no, i shrank the vista partition before installing ubuntu with ubuntu live (gparted) | 01:59 |
| vistanoload | angelus: there were no errors reported in the logs | 01:59 |

| stsm | Dr_Willis, good call on using scp though i didnt think of it, should be just as good :) | 02:10 |
| Dr_Willis | stsm: install guest addations, use proper mount/fstab entry. i used that befor. | 02:10 |
| shishkabob | sudo vuze? | 02:10 |
| MJ94_ | Hello? | 02:10 |

| ZykoticK9 | scar3crow, actually I don't even have to run it that way just "/usr/local/bin/quake4" or SMP "/usr/local/bin/quake4-smp" | 02:10 |
| stsm | Dr_Willis, yeah but the mount doesnt work lol, i tried that (im not THAT nooby, i googled) | 02:10 |
| stsm | gonna go with scp though | 02:10 |
| stsm | limited time | 02:10 |
| stsm | thanx for the help | 02:10 |
| shishkabob | werfact, , sudo vuze? | 02:10 |
| werfact | shishkabob, i guess that will work, but i dont know if it will start as root when it restarts | 02:10 |

| LjL | _anthonyc: if at least you'd actually get anyone with that | 02:11 |
| scar3crow | ZykoticK9, could you be a little more specific as to which packages to install (doom3 runs fine, so I am a little confused since it's the same engine) | 02:11 |
| LjL | _anthonyc: you should be embarassed. you fail so badly. | 02:11 |
| Dr_Willis | stsm: or is it vboxfs | 02:11 |
| Dr_Willis | stsm: i always get it backwards | 02:11 |
| stsm | Dr_Willis, yeah fs of course lol, typo | 02:11 |
| stsm | Dr_Willis, fs stands for filesystem | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | stsm: actually iu think is IS sf | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | try both ways | 02:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | scar3crow, sorry - I've got virtually every FPS installed right now, but not my doom 3 - but i'm sure it's the same | 02:12 |
| stsm | Dr_Willis, its vboxfs, that part worked :) | 02:12 |

| CrazyTux | I've 5.1 HD / Surround | 02:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | sargento, you've got to add it to fstab file - ubuntu will mount anything in that file on boot. it's a text file that you could use a gui text editor to edit. good luck man. | 02:18 |
| CrazyTux | so 6 channels I would assume | 02:18 |
| MJ94_ | Can anyone see this? | 02:19 |
| werfact | what are some IDEs people like to use in open source world? | 02:19 |
| n8tuser | MJ94_-> what is the problem? | 02:19 |
| sargento | stsm: yes, any tools that can help me because my hard drive has the name Sargento Vol 2 | 02:19 |
| MJ94_ | My wireless isn't being recognized, n8tuser | 02:19 |
| stsm | MJ94_, sorry not much time but you could pastebin the output of lshw and / or lspci and lsusb, then people will know what hardware you got and can help better | 02:19 |
| sargento | So when I tried to added it to fstab I got an error on the line I added | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | sargento: change the filesystem label.. perhaps? | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | sargento: or use UUID in fstab. | 02:19 |
| stsm | sargento, ah you need a way to know what device that harddrive is? | 02:20 |
| n8tuser | MJ94_-> usb connected wifi ? or pci? what do you have? describe please | 02:20 |
| stsm | like /dev/sda1 for instance | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | tune2fs - can change labels. | 02:20 |
| sargento | Yeah, Actually I mount it from Places >> Sargento Vol 2 | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | tune2fs - can change UUIDs also i recall. :) | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | That name shown in places is taken from the filesystem Label. Change Label. reboot.. and it should show the new Label | 02:21 |
| sargento | But I have to do this everytime I startup. Where can I find my hard drive UUID? | 02:21 |
| stsm | sargento, i allways just open gparted and then look, but there should be better ways to do this | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | !uuid | 02:21 |
| ubottu | To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | sargento: if its internal you could proberly use /dev/sd## instead of uuid. but its best to learn how touse the UUID | 02:21 |
| kandjar | has anyone here use PS3 Media server? | 02:21 |
| kandjar | s/use/used | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | of course ahveing 2 filesystems with same label is still going to give them the same name I think | 02:22 |
| MJ94_ | n8tuser: PCI wifi. | 02:22 |
| stsm | sargento, what i said is for the device name, i dunno if you can see UUID there | 02:22 |
| n8tuser | MJ94_-> more details.. which chip? what have you done so far to troubleshoot? | 02:22 |
| stsm | anyway got to go thanx for the help all | 02:22 |
| sargento | I know the path, is /dev/sdb1 but when I tried << sudo fdisk -l >> I don't get any UUID | 02:23 |
| bastid_raZor | sargento: sudo blkid | 02:23 |
| stsm | sargento, Dr_Willis can maybe help, i need to go | 02:24 |
| sargento | bastid_raZor: Thanks | 02:24 |

| kandjar | (i need the 64b version) | 02:45 |
| MJ94_ | coz_: tried that. idk how to install ndiswrapper | 02:45 |
| eng_metal | <MJ94_> don't you know how to resolv my doubt? | 02:45 |
| thedude42 | cheasully, i'd go ask that in #fluxbox | 02:45 |

| kandjar | how can I get the intel build of ubuntu 9.04 64b? | 02:45 |
| coz_ | MJ94_, not sure then guy I havent used wireless since ubuntu edgy | 02:45 |

| cheasully | thedude42, thanks | 02:46 |
| Flannel | kandjar: "AMD64" is for intel and AMD, etc. Just like "i386" isn't just for intel. | 02:47 |

| Cyrano_De | cheasully: You should be able to just run the wm applet from the commandline. They should show up in the slit | 02:47 |
| coz_ | MJ94_, get the model number of the wireless card then google ubuntu linksys ### and you will liekly get a few hits | 02:47 |

| werfact | yxz97, probably all your laptop can run | 03:20 |
| IdleOne | yxz97: please be patient or we can not help you | 03:20 |
| thedude42 | starke, so if you open a termina and type `ip link show` all the devices that come back are connected? | 03:20 |
| IdleOne | yxz97: please watch your language also | 03:20 |
| yxz97 | What I meant is that I need the basic window manager that comes with gnome ... | 03:20 |
| yxz97 | and not this such metacity that is getting my paltop too slow, please help me with this .. | 03:21 |
| Flannel | yxz97: That's metacity | 03:21 |
| starke | thedude42: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000 | 03:21 |
| genii | yxz97: Since metacity is the default window manager for Ubuntu, you probably need a window manager which uses less resources. XFCE which is the #xubuntu default might be good, or lxde | 03:21 |
| yxz97 | Flannel, so what get my laptop slow ? .. | 03:21 |
| Flannel | yxz97: You mean metacity instead of compiz, perhaps? | 03:21 |
| Flannel | yxz97: I don't know. Compiz is the eyecandy | 03:21 |
| thedude42 | starke, you don't have an eth0 device? | 03:21 |
| cnwesleywang | does anyone knows how to configure root password of slapd in ubuntu 9.10? | 03:22 |

| hotmonkeyluv | Hello, I'm running 2.6.28-15-generic #52-Ubuntu SMP 64 bit, and my swap partition is being used *way* more than in 8.10, and I don't like it. I have 2 gigs of ram, so everything should fit on it just fine, but for some reason my ram usage is about 30% and from then on, my swap usage goes up. How can I fix this because my computer seems to be going slower than normal. | 03:24 |
| starke | thedude42: yea but it works just fine | 03:24 |
| kandjar | yeah but that sound weird to me to have /home/video :) /home/photo... /home/git | 03:24 |
| criacuervo | hi | 03:24 |

| redlance | evon, Do you have your Windows install CD? | 03:28 |
| thedude42 | starke, ok, i'm not quite clear.... you're asking about the error that firestarter is producing, or a non-working network interface? because if one of your interfaces is up but not functioning then I would imagine that is why firestarter is throwing a 'device not ready' error at you | 03:28 |
| boxxy | starke, ok, i'm not quite clear.... you're asking about the error that firestarter is producing, or a non-working network interface? because if one of your interfaces is up but not functioning then I would imagine that is why firestarter is throwing a 'device not ready' error at you | 03:28 |

| ftjla | what do I need to do to increase the disk space for the home directory? | 03:30 |
| werfact | ftjla, you can resize the partition if you have free space | 03:30 |
| thedude42 | starke, all I can say is that i used firestarter for a while, it seemed like it worked fine until it stopped working fine, and now that ubuntu has ufw I will never touch firestarter again | 03:31 |
| IdleOne | ftjla: delete some stuff or use gparted and expand the partition if you have more drive space | 03:31 |
| starke | thedude42: im trying to setup an ics | 03:31 |
| ftjla | is gparted a gui program I dont know any of the commandline studff yet | 03:31 |
| IdleOne | ftjla: yes | 03:31 |
| shishkabob | what does this mean?: | 03:31 |
| shishkabob | exec: 11: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java: not found | 03:31 |
| starke | thedude42: ubuntu wiki said it was the easiest way | 03:31 |
| ftjla | idleone: thx I'll go try and find it then | 03:32 |

| matelot | Question: how to set a script to run at startup ? | 03:35 |
| matelot | in Jaunty | 03:36 |
| DigiAngel | matelot: Do you see an /etc/rc.local? | 03:36 |
| bastid_raZor | !boot | matelot | 03:36 |
| ubottu | matelot: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 03:36 |
| matelot | there used to be Session start option... | 03:36 |
| cfedde | matelot: look at examples in /etc/rc.d and read about rc.local in the manual | 03:36 |
| Random832 | is there any particular advantage or disadvantage to installing amd64 vs i386 version? | 03:37 |
| kandjar | does linux still need swap with 4gb of ram? if yes, does it need 8gb? or less? | 03:37 |
| lstarnes | kandjar: if you use hibernation, you need at least as much swap as ram | 03:37 |
| matelot | didiangel yes I see /etc/rc.local | 03:37 |
| kandjar | lstarnes: oh hybernation uses that? | 03:38 |
| lstarnes | kandjar: yes | 03:38 |
| DigiAngel | matelot: Edit that with whatever you want, just make sure exec 0 is the last line | 03:38 |
| lstarnes | kandjar: it stores the memory on the hard disk | 03:38 |
| thedude42 | starke, this line seems ominous... "I suggest you install dhcp3-server first, and then firestarter, cause if you are lucky, firestarter will set up a new config file for dhcp3 for you." | 03:38 |
| kandjar | lstarnes: well technically the server shouldnt hybernate but just in case; i ll reserver at least 4gb then :) | 03:38 |
| lstarnes | kandjar: regular ram usually can't store data when the system is off | 03:38 |
| xpistos | okay better idea, how do I use an rsa key to authenticate my sshfs share? | 03:38 |
| matelot | cfedde I dont have that rc.d : cat: /etc/rc.d: No such file or directory | 03:39 |
| DigiAngel | matelot: Just be warned...whatever you have in there will run as root unless you sudo/su the command to a non root yser | 03:39 |
| kandjar | lstarnes: that i know :) but i didnt know the hybernation was storing the data in the swap partition | 03:39 |
| kandjar | s/data/live data/ | 03:39 |
| rocko | what would be the option -t in windows for linux on ping? | 03:40 |
| DigiAngel | just ping rocko | 03:40 |
| rocko | for real? | 03:40 |
| DigiAngel | ping IP will go on until you ctl-c | 03:40 |
| rocko | okay cool | 03:40 |
| rocko | okay going offline now | 03:41 |
| rocko | fixing bricked router | 03:41 |

| jfincher | what package do I need to install so "man setuid" works? | 03:42 |

| kaka | The built-in keyboard of LG E300 Laptop doesn't work in all linux distributions | 03:42 |
| kaka | It only works with usb keyboards | 03:42 |
| kaka | How can I make ubuntu recognize my built-in laptop keyboard? | 03:43 |
| thedude42 | starke, do you have the entry in /etc/network/interfaces for eth1? | 03:43 |
| gandhi | ouch, really? | 03:43 |
| gandhi | thats terrible | 03:43 |
| starke | thedude42: auto lo | 03:44 |
| starke | iface lo inet loopback | 03:44 |
| DigiAngel | starke: sudo ifconfig -a | 03:44 |
| starke | thedude42: thats it | 03:44 |
| matelot | digiangel, ubottu, is something like this right ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/291302/ | 03:44 |
| thedude42 | starke, ok, so you probably need to configure that file first | 03:45 |
| DigiAngel | spot on matelot | 03:45 |
| shishkabob | what does this mean?: | 03:45 |
| shishkabob | exec: 11: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java: not found | 03:45 |

| DigiAngel | sounds like you're missing java shishkabob | 03:46 |
| matelot | digiangel, so another user will NOT kick this off when logging on her account ? | 03:46 |
| Nautilus | after an upgrade from 8 to 9, I can't get in via NX anymore (local box). What might be stopping that? | 03:46 |
| matelot | i guess she will, right ? | 03:46 |
| DigiAngel | Newp...rc.local is just on startup | 03:46 |
| matelot | oh i see | 03:46 |
| bastid_raZor | matelot: no, use /home/username/script ..no need for & | 03:47 |
| thedude42 | starke, so this is where you need to consider your own configuration details, like, just simply following the examples aren't going to work here | 03:47 |
| shishkabob | DigiAngel: are java and flash 2 separate things? | 03:47 |

| datta | i have gone through these steps http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kde and now is downloading the files | 03:51 |
| Flannel | !dontzap | emma | 03:51 |
| ubottu | emma: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 03:51 |
| Flannel | emma: or if its just a once-in-a-while thing, you can switch to a TTY and restart gdm | 03:51 |
| emma | alt+sysrq+K sounds good | 03:51 |
| scunizi | datta: that works | 03:51 |
| datta | but i had recieved an error or like an warning, what is that? | 03:52 |
| scunizi | datta: should I guess at what the warning is? | 03:52 |
| AnirbanHazra | thedude42: ntp ??? | 03:52 |
| datta | scunizi: if you can then okay | 03:52 |
| IdleOne | haha | 03:53 |
| datta | but it was about how some packages were not registered or something to the key provided | 03:53 |

| scunizi | datta: I lost my precognitive abilities after they gave me the shock treatment last time | 03:53 |
| datta | some problem with the software sources | 03:53 |
| shishkabob | what does this mean?: | 03:53 |
| shishkabob | exec: 11: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java: not found | 03:53 |
| shishkabob | i have have installed | 03:53 |
| shishkabob | java | 03:54 |
| shishkabob | i have java installed | 03:54 |
| thedude42 | AnirbanHazra: open a terinal and type 'sudo apt-get install ntp' | 03:54 |
| lstarnes | shishkabob: it means that /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java doesn't exist or is not set executable | 03:54 |
| datta | also i am seeing that it would like double, having both gnome and kde in the computer, if i start to like kde or do not can i uninstall it, there is a lot of tutorials for you to download and install but not to uninstall | 03:54 |
| mom_ | so line 1: a.pdf line 2: b.pdf line 3: c.pdf but then i run a command and have line 1: a.pdf b.pdf c.pdf | 03:54 |
| scunizi | datta: I wouldn't worry about it. when it's done updating then in a terminal type .. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade .. and you should be good to go. | 03:54 |
| AnirbanHazra | thedude42: Installed , then ? | 03:55 |
| scunizi | datta: sure.. there's a thing called "pure gnome" I'll give you the link | 03:55 |
| scunizi | !pure | datta | 03:55 |

| shishkabob | werfact: yes | 04:02 |
| blankhead | is anyone having problems opening frostwire after the upgrade to 4.18.3 | 04:02 |
| lstarnes | webbb82: firefox and thunderbird can load it through their graphical interfaces. I think xulrunner has a command-line method | 04:02 |
| evon | redlance: now it says ntldr missing | 04:03 |

| xover | guys, can you tell me how to configure iptables to monitor both wireless and wired connections? | 04:04 |

| shishkabob | the repositories | 04:05 |
| werfact | shishkabob, what about java? | 04:05 |
| evon | redlance: it says "root (h0,2), filesystem type unknown partition type 0x7, makeactive, chainloader +1" | 04:06 |
| shishkabob | it came preinstalled on my branch-off version of ubuntu | 04:06 |

| ubottu | This is not a file sharing channel (or network). If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » | 04:07 |
| werfact | raeldenk, not sure if rtorrent makes any backups of the .torrent files | 04:07 |
| shishkabob | its pretty much the same thing except java, flash and realplayer come preinstalled | 04:07 |

| werfact | raeldenk, do a search for *.torrent on your pc | 04:08 |
| redlance | evon, Hmmm...sounds like your Master Boot Record is messed up...Google for "ntldr missing xp" and you'll find several sites with suggestions...As far as the Linux side, you will probably have to reinstall grub. | 04:08 |
| werfact | shishkabob, it's not the java you need | 04:08 |
| max__ | Hi, I'm trying to put a whole bunch of pictures together as a time lapse video / slideshow, and I'm just wondering .. how can I go about this under Ubuntu? | 04:09 |
| werfact | shishkabob, do sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin | 04:09 |
| shishkabob | werfact: already installed | 04:09 |
| thedude42 | max__, so you can go the powerpoint style route with open office.... | 04:10 |
| werfact | shishkabob, what happens when you run vuze? | 04:10 |
| max__ | TheDude, I want it to be a movie. | 04:10 |
| max__ | And I want it to be displaying images quickly. | 04:11 |
| shishkabob | if i run it fro, the applications shortcut, nothing happens | 04:12 |
| scunizi | max__: is this for the web? | 04:12 |
| max__ | At some point it will be. | 04:12 |
| shishkabob | if i run it from terminal, i get the error i gave you earlier | 04:12 |
| scunizi | max__: Openoffice will export in .swf for web playing | 04:12 |
| jony123 | How do i incress the screen brightness | 04:12 |
| max__ | Hm, but I'm thinking more in the direction of youtube. | 04:12 |
| max__ | Or any equivalent site. | 04:13 |
| thedude42 | max__, it sounds more like you want a a video production tool | 04:13 |

| max__ | None of them really work. | 04:13 |

| werfact | shishkabob, open the azureus script file with your favorite text editor and edit the given configuration options | 04:14 |
| scunizi | max__: you could look at LiVeS! www.getdeb.net | 04:14 |
| werfact | shishkabob, aka, specify where the java is installed | 04:14 |

| abdrahim | dkulchenko: Make sure your swap partition is large enough | 04:22 |
| dsnyders | crypt-0, I think the asker left the chat. | 04:22 |
| dkulchenko | abdarahim: does that matter for suspend to ram, though? (swap is only 1gb, and my ram is 2gb) | 04:22 |
| mizerydearia | `dmesg` indicates last line of ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready | 04:22 |
| thedude42 | dkulchenko, look at the power options and see if there is anything to configure, and if there is start playing with different behaviours of the S3/S4 power states.... chances are there is nothing but there might be something in there that is a little different than what ubuntu expects from ACPI | 04:22 |
| ae86drifter | swap should be at least the saize of ram | 04:23 |
| tgm4883 | when using 'apt-get install -f' how do you specify a solution? | 04:23 |
| magdato | i dont know | 04:23 |
| dkulchenko | abdrahim: (srry, spelled your nick wrong the first time) does that matter for suspend to ram, though? (swap is only 1gb, and my ram is 2gb) | 04:23 |
| ae86drifter | resize the partition | 04:23 |
| tgm4883 | ie, when getting "E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution)." | 04:23 |
| magdato | when i installed ubuntu, it detected all | 04:23 |
| crypt-0 | dsnyders, sorry | 04:23 |
| dkulchenko | thedude42: the thing is, it's worked before, i don't understand why it doesn't work now. a faulty kernel upgrade, perhaps? | 04:23 |
| vigo | magdato: You said Skype? | 04:24 |
| abdrahim | dkulchenko: Make your swap partition 4 gb if you have the space. That solved it for me. | 04:24 |
| magdato | yes | 04:24 |
| n-iCe | is there any way to make ubuntu look like moblin? | 04:24 |
| dkulchenko | abdrahim: i have plenty of space, but that solves suspend, not just hibernate, correct? | 04:24 |
| ae86drifter | but your swap is only 1gb | 04:24 |
| ae86drifter | thats an issue | 04:24 |
| dsnyders | crypt-0, don't apologize. I was going to post some of the same things, but when I tried to tab complete the guy's name, it wouldn't work. | 04:24 |

| crypt-0 | K4:P | 04:25 |
| magdato | no | 04:25 |
| thedude42 | dkulchenko, in that case yes, if you did a kernel update and it started try hitting escape at the grub loading screen and select an older kernel, test it and see what happens.... chances are you're not the only one with this problem if that is it and there will probably be a bug report you can look at | 04:25 |
| carpediem | n-iCe: there is ubuntu moblin netbook remix, google it. But I think you need an atom processor to run Moblin. But no, Ubuntu won't look like Moblin without Moblin. | 04:25 |
| crypt-0 | :P | 04:25 |
| abdrahim | dkulchenko: it solved the hibernate as well | 04:25 |

| thedude42 | Random832, wubi | 04:31 |
| thedude42 | Random832, but in general just using the normal installer, yeah, it's pretty easy, and mostly do to advances in hardware support and detection | 04:32 |
| Random832 | I literally didn't have to do _anything_, except reboot twice, after the initial screen where it asked me like six things | 04:32 |
| Random832 | of course, some of my past difficult install experiences have been of my own making - for example, i once did a 13-floppy install with only one actual disk | 04:33 |
| vigo | Random832: Yes, it is no longer 18 Floppies and a manual with cryptic terms that the average windows user has no idea about. | 04:33 |
| Lanlost_ | I am using the full path. I just used ~/ here | 04:34 |
| Random832 | yeah, but this... I mean, I've installed _applications_ that were harder _and_ took longer than this | 04:34 |
| Lanlost_ | er.. sorry, I thoght I put my launcher here. Yeah I put Eclipse as the title and /home/brent/eclipse/eclipse as the link. It runs it just gets seriously a flood of errors | 04:34 |

| mb_again_ | dsnyders: looks fine for a new/unused usb key. I am assuming there is no data to save on it, As root you did fdisk /dev/sdd ? | 05:17 |
| Bluey | MikeChelen - I'd go spend $10 and get a new mouse - that might be your cheapest best solution -- I didn't know 3m made mice, and that might be the crux of the problem. | 05:17 |

| crypt-0 | grease, that could be a problem | 05:33 |
| crypt-0 | grease, if you boot into a liveCD can you see your files? | 05:33 |
| grease | I can .. but it seems my hard disk is password protected and it doesn't accept the (usual) password I gave .. also on using the command line at grub and "ls" I can see all my files .. so I think all my files are ok | 05:34 |
| ae86drifter | maybe need to edit menu.1st and make sure the hard disk is the correct | 05:35 |
| grease | crypt-0: I don't think my hard disk is corrupted | 05:35 |

| mezquitale | savage-, how muchm ram do u have? | 05:42 |
| Random832 | how do i do that? | 05:42 |
| savage- | mezquitale, 2GB | 05:43 |
| Random832 | 256M... wtf | 05:43 |
| RCS-Br | kkk | 05:43 |
| ae86drifter | lol | 05:43 |
| Random832 | why didn't wubi give me an option to set this up? | 05:43 |
| thedude42 | kkk! | 05:43 |
| ae86drifter | cause wubi is noob | 05:43 |
| dumont | is it possible to make system monitor show ALL server processes even the onces run by root? | 05:43 |
| dumont | when logged in as another user | 05:43 |
| mezquitale | savage-, your laptop has a core 2 duo cpu?? | 05:44 |
| dumont | its my box so i can change permissions and whatnot | 05:44 |
| savage- | mezquitale, yep, that's right | 05:44 |
| ae86drifter | random, resize our windows partition and do a proper installation | 05:44 |
| savage- | mezquitale, the previous major version of ubuntu was fast, now this one is really slow (as noticed by sluggish windows, etc) | 05:44 |
| mezquitale | savage-, how is your machine slow? Is it an application, the internet or what? | 05:44 |
| Random832 | bah | 05:44 |
| savage- | mezquitale, mostly graphics-wise | 05:44 |
| Random832 | i'll just make a new swap disk | 05:44 |
| ae86drifter | up to you | 05:44 |
| ae86drifter | u will get better performance on a dedicated partiton | 05:45 |
| Random832 | !@#!@#@!3 I said 16GB on the assumption that an appropriate portion of that space would be used for swap - I don't have the _room_ | 05:45 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:45 |
| thedude42 | savage-, it's entirely possible the slowness you are experiencing is due to a difference in the graphics driver from the 2 different versions | 05:45 |
| savage- | thedude42, right... I guess there's nothing I can do? | 05:46 |
| thedude42 | savage-, no.... what graphics chip do you have? | 05:46 |
| mezquitale | savage-, try updating your drivers to an earlier version | 05:46 |
| savage- | I'm sorry, I'm a newbie at this... is there a way I can tell you guys what graphics chip/version I'm using? | 05:47 |
| Random832 | hmm | 05:47 |
| Random832 | will it break anything (either on ubuntu or windows) to use my hiberfil.sys and pagefile.sys for swap space? | 05:47 |
| thedude42 | savage-, lspci | grep -i vga | 05:47 |

| shamail | Hi, I am trying to bypass a firewall using ssh. Problem is, with ssh -L i get access to remote services only at localhost, but i cannot use my iPhone etc to be used with this machine(say using wifi). How can i do that? | 05:49 |
| mezquitale | savage-, you can tell what drivers you are using by going to "System-->Administration-->Hardware Drivers" | 05:49 |
| === andrew_ is now known as Guest78144 | ||
| savage- | thedude42, why dang? | 05:49 |
| thedude42 | savage-, because there's some issues with the current intel video driver | 05:50 |
| ms9477 | I'm having a problem with getting my HD's 2nd partition to mount in Karmic, anyone possibly able to help me out? | 05:51 |
| mezquitale | savage-, those intel drivers are a pain to configure, i'm thinking youre not using propietary drivers, I have a dell inspiron and didnt bother configuring video card | 05:51 |
| aum | hi - i'm trying to get bluetooth headphones working - 'lsusb' shows my bluetooth dongle, which has worked under linux - but 'hcitool dev' shows nothing - any ideas? | 05:51 |
| savage- | thedude42, yeah, that's what I figured :-( | 05:51 |
| thedude42 | savage-, good news is that the next version is supposed to address them | 05:51 |
| ae86drifter | random, why do u want to use hiberfil.sys and pagefile.sys for your ubuntu swap??? | 05:52 |
| savage- | thedude42, damn, when is the "next version" going to be available? | 05:52 |
| thedude42 | !karmic | 05:52 |
| ubottu | Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic is BETA and MAY break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 05:52 |
| mezquitale | savage-, I dont think youre using intrepid, youre using jaunty, I'm using intrepid and downgraded after I installed jaunty, jaunty is ubuntu's vista, it's the most horrible ubuntu version I've ever seen, karmic koala is awesome, I'm using the alpha version and so far so good, in a couple of weeks youll be able to download the official release | 05:53 |
| grease | crypt-0: http://pastebin.com/mdbcd46e | 05:53 |
| thedude42 | mezquitale, i wouldn't call it ubuntu's vista | 05:54 |
| dsnyders | mb_again_, Okay. Working flash drive on original port works. Malfunctioning flash drive on different port still unable to fdisk. | 05:54 |
| savage- | mezquitale, ah yes, that's right... | 05:54 |
| savage- | mezquitale, awesome, so karmic koala will be out soon? | 05:55 |
| guest2 | anyone have experience with linux software raid 5 | 05:55 |
| thedude42 | savage-, | !karmic | 05:55 |
| thedude42 | bleh | 05:55 |
| thedude42 | that wasn't the right command | 05:55 |
| ae86drifter | mezquitale how can u compare jaunty to vista/ | 05:55 |
| dsnyders | mb_again_, new pastebin: http://pastebin.com/m12ba6ea6 | 05:55 |
| thedude42 | ae86drifter, i think he's referring to the higher than normal regressions that seemed to appear in jaunty | 05:56 |
| mezquitale | thedude42, upgrading to jaunty caused me a lot of headaches, it broke a lot of stuff, i had to downgraded to intrepid, karmic koala looks promising though | 05:56 |
| dsnyders | ae86drifter, in much the same way as u compare the taste of chocolate to brussel sprouts :-) | 05:56 |
| mezquitale | savage-, thedude42 sent you the info for karmic | 05:56 |
| savage- | !karmic | 05:56 |

| savage- | sweet! | 05:57 |
| savage- | thanks guys | 05:57 |
| mezquitale | 3 more weeks | 05:57 |
| guest2 | the beta is horrible right now. took a couple of days fighting to get installed | 05:57 |
| thedude42 | mezquitale, for you, right.... but lets see.... it wasn't behind schedule, it did drop over 50% of the features that were hyped, it didn't represent a loss in profit for a company who typically had large upgrade base at launch time.... | 05:57 |

| Trizicus | Could someone tell me why this iptables script does not allow me to connect to the internetz? http://pastebin.com/m4965c505 | 05:58 |
| mushuukyou | Question: I'm on Ubuntu 9.04. I installed a USB joystick, Logitech. I've installed the calibration thing and it detects it fine. All the buttons check out great. However, any emulator I attempt to use, it will only recognize the buttons, and not the directional pad or the analog joysticks. | 05:59 |
| mezquitale | thedude42, i am talking about functionality wise, every ubuntu version I have tried works off the box, everything I have learned I could apply it to the next version of ubuntu, with jaunty too many things changed but the worst part was that it just plainly didnt work, that was the worst | 05:59 |
| === ericm-lunch is now known as ericm_ | ||
| guest2 | is this where i ask for help with a problem | 06:00 |
| ae86drifter | i had almost no issues with jaunty except i had to roll back my printer driver | 06:00 |
| grease | crypt-0: u there? | 06:00 |
| mezquitale | !ask | guest2 | 06:00 |
| mushuukyou | To add: The calibration tool that I run detects and likes the analog and the directional pad fine | 06:00 |
| ubottu | guest2: 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. :-) | 06:00 |
| thedude42 | Trizicus, because you have 2 rules: one that only allows traffic in if it's going to port 80, and one that drops everything else | 06:00 |
| guest2 | thanks | 06:00 |
| guest2 | Hey all. | 06:00 |
| guest2 | I have an interesting problem. I have Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring that I encoded to and mpeg4 MKV files. Then i combined the two discs into a single file. The original file I made on the desktop works great, but when I copy it to my raid 5 array the movie only plays anywhere from 1 to 3 min and mplayer exits with no messege. I have tried xine, vlc, mplayer, ect. the file copied to my raid array always quits. I get a gstreamer message when i use t | 06:00 |
| FloodBot2 | guest2: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:00 |
| dsnyders | Trizicus, I'm not sure, but I think you need a rule for output. | 06:00 |
| guest2 | well i posted in the forums and i cannot find a reason for this. | 06:01 |
| Trizicus | i will try that | 06:02 |
| mezquitale | guest2, i've noticed those multimedia applications crashing a lot as well, I suggest you try ubuntustudio if you have a spare hard drive | 06:02 |
| guest2 | but the crash only comes after copying to my raid array | 06:03 |
| guest2 | and it never used to do this | 06:03 |
| thedude42 | Trizicus, you need to, at minimum, add the line 'iptables -A INPUT -s * -d* --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED | 06:03 |
| ssmy | guest2: have you tried md5sum'ing the two files to make sure it copied correctly? | 06:03 |
| mezquitale | guest2, then I would say there is a hardware issue with your raid | 06:03 |
| mezquitale | hard drives dont last forever | 06:03 |
| Trizicus | I added 'iptables -A OUTPUT -j ACCEPT and that did not fix this problem | 06:04 |
| Trizicus | thedude42: What does the --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED mean? | 06:04 |
| mushuukyou | Question: I'm on Ubuntu 9.04. I installed a USB joystick, Logitech. I've installed the calibration thing and it detects it fine. All the buttons check out great, as well as the directional pad and analog sticks. However, any emulator I attempt to use, it will only recognize the buttons, and not the directional pad or the analog joysticks. The gamepad is not defective, as it works fine... | 06:04 |
| mushuukyou | ...in Windows. Any ideas? | 06:04 |
| thedude42 | Trizicus, add -A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT | 06:04 |
| guest2 | they are new. only six months old. I seem to be getting random errors in files. | 06:04 |
| Trizicus | what does the -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED mean? | 06:04 |
| administrator_ | what is the video download player for ubuntu (like real player on windows ) | 06:05 |
| thedude42 | Trizicus, i'm not being condescending but in order to answer your question so you understand... do you know how the TCP protocol works? | 06:05 |
| Trizicus | yes but i do not what the switch -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED mean | 06:06 |
| amigamia | hi does anyone have any suggestion as to sms software i can use for productoin enviornment? | 06:06 |
| guest2 | if i encode the movie straight to raid from the disc then i have no problems | 06:06 |
| mushuukyou | I was hoping to run into at least one other gamer in here that likes to use MAME with a joystick... | 06:06 |
| thedude42 | Trizicus, ok, so iptables has a module that tracks the stae of tcp and udp communication, that -m rule matches state in the conntrack module against traffic that is in previously seen TCP sessions | 06:07 |
| dsnyders | Trizicus, here is mine: http://pastebin.com/m6ff4b005 | 06:07 |
| dsnyders | Trizicus, It lets everything through, but I have a firewall on a different machine. | 06:07 |
| thedude42 | Trizicus, so when you send a request out, conntrack will record it, and when the ACK comes back, that rule lets it throguh because it is related to the SYN you sent in the beginning | 06:07 |
| q0_0p | Trizicus, u practically have no rules set up and ur firewall is open | 06:08 |
| mezquitale | mushuukyou, you can try logging in again at other times, maybe you will find someone that knows the answer to your question, i never was able to have my rumblepad working fine so I didnt bother with it | 06:08 |
| thedude42 | q0_0p, no, his firewall is totally shut from outside traffic in | 06:08 |
| crypt-0 | grease, sorry | 06:08 |
| q0_0p | oh | 06:08 |
| mushuukyou | ok mez, thank you. | 06:08 |

| ubuntu | i get this error | 06:09 |
| mushuukyou | mezquitale, did you have the same issue? You could calibrate it fine, but the emulator didn't like it? | 06:09 |
| administrator_ | what is the video download player on ubuntu (like real player on windows) | 06:09 |
| vigo | thedude42: Good call, I was looking in that direction also. | 06:09 |
| ubuntu | [: 494: =: unexpected operator | 06:09 |
| ubuntu | Installing GRUB to /dev/sda as (hd0)... | 06:09 |
| ubuntu | Installation finished. No error reported. | 06:09 |

| FloodBot2 | ubuntu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:09 |
| dsnyders | Trizicus, Perhaps you should look into something like shorewall | 06:09 |
| querooo | eae D0id0 | 06:09 |
| grease | crypt-0: no problem .. i pasted the /etc/fstab contents ( http://pastebin.com/mdbcd46e ) | 06:09 |
| querooo | :" | 06:09 |
| Trizicus | thedude42: The problem with adding that line is that it allows all connections even ones I have not specified | 06:09 |
| grease | crypt-0: think the trouble is because the last few lines I had added (for VirtualBox) .. Is there a way to delete it from grub command line? | 06:10 |
| mezquitale | mushuukyou, lets just say the rumblepad works fine in windows but didnt work as expected in ubuntu so I just never bothered with it but now that you mentioned it I'm going to see if it works with virtualbox when i have some spare time, im going to sleep right now | 06:10 |
| Trizicus | sudo iptables -A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT allows ssl for example when I have not specified it | 06:10 |

| ae86drifter | vlc | 06:10 |
| ubuntu | what does the [: 494 : =: unexpected error means ? | 06:10 |
| ubuntu | anybody can help me ? | 06:10 |
| mushuukyou | ok | 06:10 |
| thedude42 | Trizicus, because you have zero rules controlling anything outbound | 06:10 |
| ubuntu | am stuck in middle | 06:10 |

| Trizicus | i'm trying to only allow http/s smb | 06:10 |
| Trizicus | i'm allowing all outbound but accepting inbound is what i'm blocking | 06:11 |
| Trizicus | i'll allow outbound from 0:65535 but block all but those that I need for inbound | 06:11 |

| ae86drifter | vmware workstation is awesome | 06:18 |

| mushuukyou | or does it not matter | 06:19 |
| ae86drifter | im not sure | 06:19 |

| oldude67 | dquestions, have you checked what fdisk says? | 06:24 |
| dquestions | you mean fdisk /dev/sda? | 06:25 |
| Jeruvy | dquestions: sda would indicate a disk, sdb, sdc, etc would indicate more disks. A number after sda1 indicates a partition. | 06:25 |
| dquestions | right | 06:26 |

| melow01 | ok, I'll take your advice | 06:47 |
| administrator_ | so i install it using terminal , is it ok | 06:47 |

| leaf-sheep | lilzeus: hello | 07:21 |
| lstarnes | lilzeus: is this suitable? | 07:21 |
| Maximo | Hi guys is there a way within Ubuntu how to keep internet connection steady without getting disconnected? | 07:21 |
| Maximo | thanksk | 07:21 |
| asustek101 | lostirc | 07:21 |
| lilzeus | thank you, I am trying to configure pidgin, its not working | 07:21 |
| lstarnes | asustek101: consider filing a bug report with lostirc's developers | 07:21 |
| lstarnes | lilzeus: pidgin's irc support isn't very complete | 07:21 |
| lilzeus | I think so | 07:22 |
| MTecknology | Andorin: what version of nautilus do you have? | 07:22 |
| asustek101 | do you recomment a different program? | 07:22 |
| lilzeus | I want to be able to see when people send me a message | 07:22 |
| DryGrain | how do i make a .ttf file part of my font library? | 07:22 |
| Andorin | MTecknology: 2.20.0 | 07:22 |
| MTecknology | !info nautilus | 07:22 |
| ubottu | nautilus (source: nautilus): file manager and graphical shell for GNOME. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.26.2-0ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 1113 kB, installed size 2972 kB | 07:22 |
| lilzeus | ah, ignore incoming format...so all you people who have modified your fonts will be nullified | 07:23 |
| MTecknology | Andorin: It's possible they added that option in the last few releases of nautilus - that is distro specific | 07:23 |
| asustek101 | mtek which is the best irc program to us? | 07:23 |
| Andorin | Alright. | 07:23 |
| MTecknology | !best | 07:24 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 07:24 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: personally - irssi | 07:24 |
| lilzeus | I assume that all the setting for this are in the plugins section? | 07:24 |
| DryGrain | xchat imo | 07:24 |
| zer0cool | anyone know how to install the Dream Aquarium on Ubuntu | 07:24 |
| asustek101 | thanks and sorry for polling | 07:24 |
| DryGrain | but like ubottu said... | 07:24 |
| DryGrain | ;[ | 07:24 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: that one is entirely preference based | 07:24 |
| ActionParsnip1 | asustek101: there is no best | 07:24 |
| lakeoftea | Maximo : call your isp | 07:25 |
| ActionParsnip1 | asustek101: best is an opinion so therefore not concrete | 07:25 |
| MTecknology | personally - I'm lost if I'm not using irssi | 07:25 |
| ActionParsnip1 | asustek101: what omeone thinks is the best, others wil think is the worst. why dont you try a few to see which YOU like and use that | 07:25 |
| asustek101 | mtek i tried to install the ati driver for my card but it is not compatible with jaunty | 07:25 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !irc | asustek101 | 07:25 |

| MTecknology | ActionParsnip1: not sure that applies here ;) | 07:26 |
| lilzeus | I installed the latest Firefox, only its not called Firefox and the icon associated with it is different, can I change this? | 07:26 |
| Maximo | lakeoftea: you know what that it get disconnected just like that suddenly ....could be just cause of a router? what you think? | 07:26 |
| ActionParsnip1 | MTecknology: it applies to everything ever, sometimes life isn't even best for some people | 07:26 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: type mt then hit the tab key - see my nick auto complete | 07:26 |
| asustek101 | MT does not work for me | 07:27 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: firefox 3.5 under jaunty has a blue globe icon and is codenamed shiretoko, this is normal | 07:27 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: ok... then you DO need a better client | 07:27 |
| asustek101 | MTlol | 07:27 |
| asustek101 | ill be back | 07:27 |
| lilzeus | ActionParsnip1: how do I change it back? | 07:28 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: start off with xchat and irssi | 07:28 |
| MTecknology | lilzeus: it's a development version - 3.5 is standard in 9.10; so waiting is best | 07:28 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: you will need to run: gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop to make it use a different icon | 07:28 |
| MTecknology | for the name anyway | 07:28 |
| xover | can someone help me with sudoers, i added a line for allowing nopassword loading of firestarter, but now i can restart any service without prompting for a password | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: you may need to download a new icon for it manually as I think installing 3.5 updates the icon file, you could seach your system for the icon files to see which you can use if a standard one still exists on your PC | 07:29 |
| MTecknology | xover: pastebin /etc/sudoers | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: unless you havent got anything better to do, I wouldnt break a sweat over it | 07:30 |
| lilzeus | ActionParsnip1: all these command lines, can't I just navigate to the file/folder and modify it there? | 07:31 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: 3.7 adds a little fuse to that icon and is called minefield | 07:31 |
| === mike is now known as asustek101 | ||
| lilzeus | well, I am learning the nuances of ubuntu in the mean time :) | 07:31 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: sure, if you run: gksudo nautilus you can navigate as normal but you are simply going to open it with gedit so the command line is quicker | 07:31 |
| lilzeus | its only quicker if I know where everything is, exactly | 07:32 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: this seems alittle better | 07:32 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: an exact command or clicking therought the file system to get where you need to be? CLI is faster dude | 07:32 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: thats why I gave you the EXACT command | 07:32 |
| lilzeus | ActionParsnip1: I hope you don't plan on giving me commands while I learn? | 07:33 |
| lilzeus | :) | 07:33 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: its the best way to learn | 07:33 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: how do i check what video driver is installed currently? | 07:33 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: you wont learn to use the terminal if you only use the gui | 07:33 |
| lilzeus | I mean, I do not want to inconvenience anyone needlessly | 07:34 |
| chetnick | Hello, i have HT Omega Striker sound card and i am running Ubuntu 9.04. The sound is not so great. Is there any config tool that i can install and mess with sound to see if i can get it to work better? | 07:34 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: how is it inconveniencing anyone? | 07:34 |
| lilzeus | and I understand that many people don't like newbs coming in asking how to do every single little thing | 07:34 |
| leaf-sheep | ActionParsnip1: He's inconveniencing me right now. :( | 07:34 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: lspci -k | 07:34 |
| chetnick | asustek101: lsmod | 07:35 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: thanks | 07:35 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: thats why i give command based help. 1) Helps user get used to terminal 2) teaches some commands | 07:35 |
| MTecknology | lilzeus: we don't care at all - as long as our support doesn't meet a brick wall | 07:35 |
| leaf-sheep | lilzeus: This is why we have channels -- To help people. :) | 07:35 |
| chetnick | its very simple not to answer. | 07:35 |
| rot | is it possible to set a custom icon for a folder (in nautilus) using a command, so I could use it in a script? | 07:36 |
| lilzeus | well, but if I don't have every single command memorized, I need to be able to get around on my own | 07:36 |
| MTecknology | lilzeus: part of the reason for support by commands is variations in how ever you want to set things up - I don't use Gnome or KDE - I can't click through menus to guide you through it - I just check commands | 07:36 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R200 QL [Radeon 8500 LE] | 07:36 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: you will never need every command, knowing a small few is enough | 07:36 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: the driver in use should show up right below that | 07:37 |
| spaceBARbarian | how can i create a launcher for running a bash script but without having a terminal window pop up (the script launches a GUI based program i need) | 07:37 |
| thedude42 | lilzeus, tab complete is your friend, man is also your friend | 07:37 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: radeon fb | 07:37 |
| lilzeus | its not just the commands though, its memorizing where everything is, and getting the names correct | 07:37 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: i'm sure you know where a lot of stuff is in windows don't you? | 07:38 |
| lilzeus | of course | 07:38 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: exactly EXAACTLY the same thing | 07:38 |
| === P1ro is now known as Guest91728 | ||
| chetnick | spaceBARbarian: whey you run sh script with double click it is going to ask you , display or execute, if you execute you GUI program will be run. | 07:38 |
| lilzeus | but I don't know the names of everything | 07:38 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: i think thisb is what is making it so slow | 07:38 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: its time to learn a whole new thing so we will inform and tell you | 07:38 |
| chetnick | spaceBARbarian: whey you run sh script with double click it is going to ask you , display or execute, if you execute you GUI program will be run. | 07:38 |
| chetnick | ups | 07:38 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: and you will learn, kjust like you learned windows | 07:38 |
| lilzeus | so, I am at Shiretoko Web Browser Properties, and it looks like I can change the icon, where is the Firefox icon hiding? | 07:39 |
| chetnick | hey guys, i need little help here, i cant be sure what to use on the net cause some posts are really old, and i know that there are some changes with sound in 9.04 | 07:39 |
| MTecknology | lilzeus: remember - learning is fun - before you know it you'll be compiling your own kernel ;) - it's what I'm doing nowe | 07:39 |
| chetnick | Hello, i have HT Omega Striker sound card and i am running Ubuntu 9.04. The sound is not so great. Is there any config tool that i can install and mess with sound to see if i can get it to work better? | 07:39 |
| lilzeus | MTecknology: wishful thinking :) | 07:40 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: I think this might be past my knowledge. without telling you to go diving in xorg.conf I'm not sure what to tell you | 07:40 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: I suggest you use an absolute path to the icon, as I said I think 3.5 overwites the icon with a new one so you may have to perform an image search online and grab an icon | 07:40 |
| asustek101 | Is there any better driver than radeon fb for 8500 | 07:40 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: you oculd do Xorg -configure when X isn't running and it'll give you whatever is automatically detected | 07:40 |
| lilzeus | can't I just use the one that Firefox is using? | 07:40 |
| MTecknology | lilzeus: open the menu editor, find the icon firefox is using; then copy that path over to the other | 07:41 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: how do you mean? | 07:42 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: I could change to a newer graphics card to run the newer drivers but this card should be good | 07:42 |
| spaceBARbarian | chetnick>> i need to run the script with sudo so i cant just double click | 07:42 |
| lilzeus | MTecknology: ah, duh | 07:42 |
| joeb3_ | lilzeus, the firefox icon is in /usr/share/pixmaps | 07:42 |
| zaoul | I have 82G33/G31 Express Integrated what driver do I use in xorg.conf? | 07:43 |
| MTecknology | !x | 07:43 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 07:43 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: I have a radeon hd3850 that i could switch to | 07:43 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: check out the restricted driver manager | 07:43 |
| lilzeus | MTecknology: what is the menu editor? | 07:43 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: nothing showing in there | 07:43 |
| chetnick | spaceBARbarian: so that means your GUI program require root ? | 07:44 |
| than0 | Does anyone know if BTRFS file system is supported by Karmic Koala installer out of box? | 07:44 |
| MTecknology | lilzeus: it lets you edit the menu | 07:44 |
| than0 | to run root system? thanks. | 07:44 |
| chetnick | spaceBARbarian: you will need to change permissions for GUI program, so anyone can run it. | 07:44 |
| spaceBARbarian | chetnick>> yes it doesnt launch if i dont use root | 07:44 |
| lilzeus | MTecknology: where is it located? | 07:44 |
| thedude42 | than0, yes | 07:44 |
| MTecknology | lilzeus: many places - I don't remember where though | 07:44 |
| zaoul | I have 82G33/G31 Express Integrated what driver do I use in xorg.conf? I don't need compiz or anything fancy just a decent resolution | 07:45 |
| thedude42 | than0, but i don't think BTRFS is ready for primte time | 07:45 |
| spaceBARbarian | chetnick>> right now i can just do a launcher that runs sudo sh <script> , but that opens a terminal and i dont want that on my screen | 07:45 |
| MTecknology | asustek101: I'm not sure - what exactly happens | 07:45 |
| than0 | thedude42, really? so I can use btrfs as root filesystem without much tweaking? thanks. | 07:45 |
| asustek101 | MTecknology: Iwill change out the graphics card and see what that does for performance once the drivers are installed | 07:46 |
| zaoul | ugh my eyes are going to pop out of my head | 07:46 |
| lilzeus | ah, sweet, it remembers the last time I visited a folder so I don't have to go there again | 07:46 |
| thedude42 | than0, not sure if that is an option in the installer | 07:46 |
| lilzeus | hmm | 07:47 |
| lilzeus | it didn't change the icon | 07:47 |
| geirha | spaceBARbarian: Use gksudo instead then. It will ask for password like update-manager does. | 07:47 |
| MTecknology | spaceBARbarian: use bash instead - no need to specify either - if your script is /path/script then do chmod +x /path/script and make what your executing in the launcher /path/script - make sure to use the full path though | 07:47 |

| chilli0 | xterm: Cnrtl H makes them veiwable | 07:50 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: I dont think you can change it there due to write permissions to the .desktop file, worth a try | 07:50 |
| lilzeus | I am in /usr/share/applications | 07:51 |

| lilzeus | right mouse click, properties | 07:51 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: if all else fails,grab an icon from the web and sling it in /usr/share/pixmaps you can then point the icon at that file | 07:51 |
| MTecknology | ActionParsnip1: you can change it there - it's a personal setting | 07:51 |

| ubottu | To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 07:57 |

| mneptok | melow01: sudo apt-get install htop | 07:59 |

| zer0cool | nubuntu, just post your question | 08:00 |
| nubuntu | ya i have even that ubuntu also but | 08:00 |

| lilzeus | ActionParsnip1: so it is a repository, which is searchable | 08:03 |
| mohanohi | MTecknology: sorry.. | 08:03 |
| geirha | melow01: You can also configure a key-combo to launch it, by running «gconf-editor» then browsing /apps/metacity/, set the command to run under keybinding_commands, then the keys to use under global_keybindings | 08:03 |
| nubuntu_ | can you please help me out in knowing the every tool in nubuntu please | 08:03 |
| MTecknology | !synaptic | nubuntu | 08:04 |
| ubottu | nubuntu: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 08:04 |
| lilzeus | ActionParsnip1: who makes the sources.list ? | 08:04 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: its a tool to search the repositories your system is aware of | 08:04 |
| gil_ | quit | 08:04 |
| iarp | Hey, ubuntu server 9.04 running samba, i'm unable to create a public share and all i get it "Access Denied" on all windows machines trying to connect unless i put a username and password in from the serverbox | 08:04 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: there is a default one for your release, you can also add and remove them as you see fit | 08:04 |
| mohanohi | MTecknology: have any idea? is it a bug in ubuntu jaunty? | 08:04 |
| nubuntu | any ebook to know about ubuntu and nubuntu? | 08:04 |
| mohanohi | MTecknology: i had same problem with the other system also.. | 08:04 |

| kosmic | okay. this is odd | 08:04 |
| kosmic | im trying to log into the the gnome | 08:05 |
| nubuntu | please guys help me out | 08:05 |
| MTecknology | mohanohi: I'm too tired to help with something like that | 08:05 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: the ones you already have are the official ones and will provide you with the majority of apps | 08:05 |
| kosmic | new ubuntu install. i try entering my user name | 08:05 |
| kosmic | my username starts with a p | 08:05 |
| mohanohi | MTecknology: oh ok.. | 08:05 |
| MTecknology | nubuntu: you seem to be ignoring everyone.. | 08:05 |
| === ericm-afk is now known as ericm_ | ||
| mohanohi | anybody? pls.. | 08:05 |
| kosmic | i hit the `p` key but what shows up is `*` | 08:05 |
| MTecknology | !patience | mohanohi | 08:05 |

| lilzeus | ok, next question, when there are two of an app, like say 'flashplugin-nonfree' and 'flashplugin-installer', which one do I install? | 08:06 |
| MTecknology | lilzeus: both | 08:06 |
| mneptok | lilzeus: flashplugin-nonfree | 08:06 |
| Rakko | how do I find out details about my graphics card? | 08:06 |
| mneptok | lilzeus: that wil allso install the other | 08:06 |
| geirha | kosmic: Does all keys give '*'? | 08:06 |
| Rakko | my xorg.conf has no hardware-specific stuff in it | 08:06 |
| iarp | ubuntu server 9.04 running samba, i'm unable to create a public share and all i get it "Access Denied" on all windows machines trying to connect | 08:06 |
| * mneptok moves an l around | 08:06 | |
| kosmic | geirha, no | 08:06 |
| MTecknology | mneptok: I thought you needed the installer too... | 08:07 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: flashplugin-nonfree | 08:07 |
| nubuntu | no | 08:07 |
| lilzeus | what does the 'nonfree' and '(transitional package)' mean? | 08:07 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Rakko: sudo lshw -C display | 08:07 |
| Bruc | hey all | 08:07 |
| mneptok | MTecknology: check the depends of -nonfree | 08:07 |
| nubuntu | exactly i was just like to know everything about this operating system | 08:07 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: nonfree is because its proprietary | 08:07 |
| Bruc | hiya Actions | 08:07 |
| MTecknology | Rakko: xorg.conf is being moved away from | 08:07 |
| lilzeus | how do I determine which one will install both? | 08:07 |
| geirha | kosmic: Sounds like you've set a wrong keyboard layout | 08:07 |
| kosmic | geirha, wait | 08:07 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: it will download flash and put it where it needs to be to get you going | 08:07 |
| xover | mtecknology, i used vi, then i used visudo after | 08:07 |
| xover | does it make a difference? | 08:07 |
| kosmic | i somehow fixed it geirha | 08:08 |
| kosmic | weird- | 08:08 |
| nubuntu | <MTecknology> please help me out | 08:08 |
| MTecknology | xover: yes - read the top of the file - you NEED to use visudo | 08:08 |
| Rakko | thanks, ActionParsnip1 ! | 08:08 |
| xover | so whats the problem? | 08:08 |
| Rakko | MTecknology, well where does X.org's config actually live? | 08:08 |
| kosmic | alright im logged in | 08:08 |
| lilzeus | I mean, when given the choice, should I always pick the package that says 'nonfree' and '(transitional package)'? | 08:08 |
| leo__ | I have a wireless card, wlan0, in ubuntu Hardy Heron. I have configured a virtual interface wlan0:1. I am trying to have different modes in each, viz. managed and ad-hoc. Is that possible? | 08:08 |
| linux_trojan | Question: has Ubuntu made it impossible to INIT3 and close down X-windows? | 08:08 |
| mohanohi | i think my problem is rather a bug than a solvable problem.. :( | 08:08 |
| MTecknology | xover: line 18; you have a space after the : - if you used visudo to edit it would have told you that | 08:08 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan - not that I am aware of | 08:09 |
| nubuntu | do any one have a ebook regarding nubuntu operating system | 08:09 |
| MTecknology | Rakko: it doesn't | 08:09 |
| ActionParsnip1 | lilzeus: yes as its adobe's. There are open ones like gnash but they do not fully support all the features that most flash stuff uses | 08:09 |
| MTecknology | !repeat | nubuntu | 08:09 |
| ubottu | nubuntu: 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. | 08:09 |
| MTecknology | nubuntu: You've been given your answer and repeatedly ignored us - please stop | 08:09 |
| linux_trojan | Bluey: so how do you close down x windows and just operate from a console? | 08:09 |
| ActionParsnip1 | nubuntu: its offtopic here as it isnt an official release by canonical | 08:09 |
| xover | i am using it now and its not coming up with an error? | 08:09 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan -- I use that in SuSe - but ubuntu seems happy with sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 08:09 |
| geirha | kosmic: Cool, do you know what the problem was? | 08:09 |
| kosmic | not sure but it may have been numlock | 08:10 |
| MTecknology | xover: remove the space... | 08:10 |
| linux_trojan | I tried that without success | 08:10 |
| xover | how do i see the errors? | 08:10 |
| linux_trojan | I will give it another shot | 08:10 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan == there's always sudo init 1 | 08:10 |
| xover | says it parsed ok | 08:10 |
| MTecknology | xover: just remove the space and be happy | 08:10 |
| linux_trojan | OOOOOOKKKKKK lemme give that a shot | 08:10 |
| lilzeus | hmmm | 08:10 |
| geirha | kosmic: Ah, yes, that might be possible. | 08:10 |
| Bluey | iirc that has no internet | 08:10 |
| lilzeus | youtube didn't work | 08:10 |
| kosmic | geirha, i think toggling numlock fixed it ;) | 08:10 |
| leo__ | I have a wireless card, wlan0. I have configured a virtual interface wlan0:1. I am trying to have different modes in each, viz. managed and ad-hoc. Is that possible? | 08:10 |
| xover | how do i reload the config or do i not need to? | 08:10 |
| xover | its still reloading services without prompting | 08:11 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan -- you can do ctrl+alt+f1 to get to the console | 08:11 |
| MTecknology | xover: just remove the space and be happy | 08:11 |
| xover | I have done that | 08:11 |
| linux_trojan | I dont just want a console | 08:11 |
| Bluey | then alt+f7 to get back to x | 08:11 |
| linux_trojan | I wasnt the equivilant of INIT3 | 08:11 |
| xover | its still not prompting for a password | 08:11 |
| navap | linux_trojan: Yeah Ubuntu irratates me that way as well. | 08:11 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan - init 3 doesn't work in ubuntu | 08:12 |
| lilzeus | so, I installed the flashplugin, but youtube still says I need to install it | 08:12 |
| MTecknology | xover: that's what NOPASSWD means - NO PASSWD | 08:12 |
| Rakko | I didn't think init levels were even standardized among distributions | 08:12 |
| linux_trojan | INIT3 = INIT1 in Ubuntu? | 08:12 |
| xover | thats supposed to apply to firestarter only | 08:12 |
| mohanohi | so.. nobody know the answer.. hmm.. | 08:12 |
| xover | why can i restart ssh and network etc? | 08:12 |
| navap | linux_trojan: You have to manually specify you *don't* want X/gdm/kdm to start up on a specific init | 08:12 |
| Rakko | linux_trojan, if you want init 3 to exclude X, mess around with /etc/rc3.d | 08:12 |
| MTecknology | Rakko: gentoo doesn't even have run levels - but 7 is pretty standard | 08:12 |
| Bluey | xover - how ru trying to do that? | 08:12 |
| linux_trojan | ahhhhh I dont think it is just real staright forward | 08:13 |
| Rakko | runlevel 7? I've never even heard of one over 6 | 08:13 |
| linux_trojan | sudo /etc/init,d/gdm restart just restarts windows right? | 08:13 |
| MTecknology | Rakko: 6* sorry | 08:13 |
| linux_trojan | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop Dosent actually stop Windows | 08:13 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan - yes that will do the equiv. of init 5/init 3 | 08:13 |
| Bluey | sorry baass ackwards | 08:14 |
| linux_trojan | I will give it anouther shot | 08:14 |
| linux_trojan | brb | 08:14 |
| linux_trojan | gotta go to my other box | 08:14 |
| lilzeus | so, I installed the flashplugin from synaptic, but youtube still does not play videos, any ideas? | 08:14 |
| ViRii[K]1 | I have an nvidia card and two monitors, I want to setup one as my primary (where new applications launch their windows, etc) but righ tnow its setup so that everything launches in the middle of both screens. How can I change this? | 08:14 |
| Bluey | lilzeus -- flash installed? | 08:14 |
| lilzeus | nevermind | 08:14 |
| MTecknology | lilzeus: install ubuntu-restricted-extras - any multimedia will work after that | 08:14 |
| lilzeus | restarted firefox, its working | 08:14 |
| Bluey | oh yeah gotta do that step... | 08:15 |
| mneptok | lilzeus: did you restart Firefox afterwards? | 08:15 |
| mohanohi | can anybody answer why have my files in Desktop, Documents, Picture have dissappeared? | 08:15 |
| lilzeus | of course, this computer's sound doesn't work | 08:15 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: you lost power, yes? | 08:15 |
| MTecknology | mohanohi: open nautilus - does it look right there? | 08:15 |
| mushuukyou | I solved my USB joystick problem interface with the mame emulator... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7819447 | 08:15 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: yeah | 08:15 |
| Bluey | mohanohi -- did you delete them? have you looked in nautilus? how do you know they are gone? | 08:15 |
| Rakko | I thought init 6 was reboot | 08:15 |
| mohanohi | MTecknology: no. | 08:15 |
| lilzeus | is there a synaptic for drivers? | 08:16 |
| Bluey | rakko - yes init 6 is reboot | 08:16 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: run an fsck onyour partitions from recovery mode. | 08:16 |
| mohanohi | Bluey: yeah. when i was working.. power gone.. after that i didn't see my files.. | 08:16 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: done that.. :( | 08:16 |
| xoveruk | /etc/init.d/ssh restart | 08:16 |
| Rakko | Does anyone have any help for me on this issue? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8091320#post8091320 | 08:16 |
| xoveruk | that should be prompting for a password | 08:16 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: ls ~/Desktop | 08:16 |
| Bluey | mohanohi -- what file system ru using? do you know? | 08:17 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: see anything? | 08:17 |
| mohanohi | Bluey: ext4 | 08:17 |
| mneptok | Bluey: Russians use all kinds of filesystems. | 08:17 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: its showing .. | 08:17 |
| Bluey | mohanohi - not fam. with that - | 08:17 |
| Bluey | is there an fsck for ext4? | 08:17 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: so you can see the files from the CLI, but not in Nautilus? | 08:18 |
| lilzeus | is ext4 better than ext3? | 08:18 |
| mneptok | lilzeus: ext4 goes to 11 | 08:18 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: yeah.. on the Desktop also.. i can't see it.. :( | 08:18 |
| Bluey | lilzeus -- depends on what you want... | 08:18 |
| Bluey | i don't use it, because of it's delayed write... | 08:18 |
| lilzeus | mneptok: what does 'goes to 11' mean? | 08:18 |
| Bluey | stick in the mud reiser guy | 08:18 |

| bbalajirao | Hello room. Is it possible to configure Update Manager to look for updates twice (or more) in a day | 08:23 |
| Bluey | ranjan - you'd want something like this -- in linux to see the windows drive: /dev/sdb1 /media/BFDNTFS fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0 | 08:23 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: open the home folder, and then the Desktop folder inside that | 08:23 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: what's there? | 08:23 |
| === bbalajirao is now known as hey_boy | ||

| Rakko | found it: dumpe2fs | 08:24 |
| hey_boy | Hello room. Is it possible to configure Update Manager to check for updates twice (or more at a particular time) in a day. | 08:24 |

| Kalumba | Can someone tell me why nm-connection-editor does not bend to my will even when I run it as root? I have, for some strange reason, 2 Ethernet cards registered: eth0 and eth3. I have only 1 in my laptop. Why are there two listed? Is one of them related to my virtualbox installation? Why can't I delete or edit it as freakin' root? | 08:26 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: i had changed the language of the OS to my regional language.. | 08:26 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: is it the source of the problem? | 08:26 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: which is? | 08:26 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: kannada | 08:26 |
| Bluey | ranjan -- I've always esxperienced once booted out of windows, the share dies -- you know something I don't then | 08:27 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: ah, the south-east :) | 08:27 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: try swithcing it back to a Latin alphabet language and see if that fixes it | 08:27 |
| ubuntu | hello guys, i'm using ubuntu karmic beta, and i have one question related to audio, i want to hear the input device, in fedora i used a workaround which is the multimedia system selector where i can "test" the input sound and that way i hear it, but i can't find this option on ubuntu | 08:27 |
| hey_boy | Kalumba: Why dont you just delete one (eth3) that you dont need. | 08:27 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: yeah.. in my language the OS thinks Dekstop folder is default one, which contains nothing. but Desktop folder in english contains everything. | 08:27 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: I have already changed it to English (India) | 08:28 |
| ranjan | Bley- i M NOT GETING YOUR QUESTION CAN U KINDELLY BE ELOBRATIVE | 08:28 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: and? | 08:28 |
| Kalumba | hey_boy, I'd love to do that, but even with gksudo I can't delete or edit it | 08:28 |
| hey_boy | Kalumba: have you tried "sudo su"? | 08:28 |
| lilzeus | anyone using apache in ubuntu? | 08:28 |
| Bluey | ranjan - not a question - - a statement -- when you boot linux, the windows share disappears - vanishes, ceases to exist....that's been my experience | 08:29 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: i imagine that with Kannada there is a Desktop folder named something in Kannada | 08:29 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: in my home folder 2 Desktop folders are there.. one in my language.. and another one in English | 08:29 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: yeah.. | 08:29 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: exactly. | 08:29 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: move the files from the English "Desktop" to the Kannada name | 08:29 |
| Bluey | okay mandatory break - back in 5 | 08:29 |
| mneptok | mohanohi: then switch back to Kannada | 08:29 |
| Kalumba | hey_boy, just tried it and no dice. The edit and the delete buttons are greyed out | 08:29 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: Isn't ti possible to make english Desktop as a default desktop forlder? | 08:30 |
| hey_boy | Kalumba: see the IM | 08:30 |
| mohanohi | mneptok: ok.. | 08:30 |

| linux_trojan | Bluey are you still there | 08:34 |
| Bluey | back | 08:34 |
| xover | does anyone know how to get firestarter to auto start, my sudoers file permissions is not working | 08:34 |
| linux_trojan | Bluey: INIT 1 worked, now I have one more question | 08:35 |
| xover | user ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/firestarter | 08:35 |
| linux_trojan | what programs can I use to watch Windows Media Files in Console? | 08:35 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan - shoot | 08:35 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan - I don't know the answer to that - sorry | 08:36 |
| linux_trojan | any suggestions? | 08:36 |
| linux_trojan | no problem, I tried to use Mplayer but I get audio and no video | 08:36 |
| geirha | xover: The order of the lines in sudoers make a difference. Make sure it's the last line so that it overrides the %admin line | 08:36 |
| Bluey | mplayer - but otoh why do you want to be at init 1 (single user mode) | 08:36 |
| es_beto | >hello guys, i'm using ubuntu karmic beta, and i have one question related to audio, i want to hear the input device, in fedora i used a workaround which is the multimedia system selector where i can "test" the input sound and that way i hear it, but i can't find this option on ubuntu | 08:36 |
| Darkksyde | heeelloooo | 08:36 |
| Darkksyde | can u invite me 2 ur wedding | 08:37 |
| linux_trojan | when I use x windows the video hangs and stutters not good watching | 08:37 |
| linux_trojan | computer says resources are overloaded | 08:37 |
| xover | nice one geirha! | 08:37 |
| xover | thats sorted it | 08:37 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan - private message okay? | 08:37 |
| linux_trojan | so I wanna try it in console without X | 08:37 |
| linux_trojan | no Bluey, good way to get hacked on this network | 08:37 |
| linux_trojan | heck as it is everyone can see your IP | 08:38 |
| maruta | so, installed a fresh 9.04 back home with my syncmaster @ 1440x900, everything worked fine; now here, with an old crt (perfectly capable of 1024x768) i can't get a higher res than 640x768.. suggestions? | 08:38 |
| linux_trojan | crazy | 08:38 |
| prince_jammys | i have an Iomega usb external hard drive (1.5 terabytes) that i formatted to ext3 using mkfs.ext3. It mounts and works fine (and ''mount'' shows it as ext3), but ''sudo fdisk -l'' shows it as "HPFS/NTFS", not ext3. Should I care? | 08:38 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan - what kind of video card do you have? what browser ru using? | 08:39 |
| linux_trojan | Bluey: I dont see how that is relevant? | 08:39 |
| linux_trojan | anyone know of video programs that work in Console? | 08:39 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan - it's relevant if it doesn't work in x | 08:39 |
| linux_trojan | it does work, its just slow video | 08:40 |
| chu_ | Probably a rather obvious question, is it difficult to integrate a terminal window "onto" your desktop? If that makes sense. | 08:40 |
| linux_trojan | choppy | 08:40 |
| === bbalajirao is now known as hey_boy | ||
| === root is now known as Catalin | ||
| Bluey | linux_trojan -- sorry | 08:40 |
| linux_trojan | I think if I use console without X my processor can work better on the video | 08:40 |
| Bluey | linux_trojan can you do cat /proc/cpuinfo and pastebin it? | 08:41 |
| linux_trojan | ok Bluey, well thanks for the INIT1 info, that did work | 08:41 |
| geirha | chu_: I've seen guides that explain how to do that. Haven't tried it myself though so don't know how difficult it is. But give it a google and see for yourself | 08:41 |
| _bam | could someone recommend some screen recording software? | 08:41 |
| linux_trojan | g2g | 08:41 |
| Catalin | hello all | 08:41 |
| _bam | hey | 08:41 |
| Catalin | is someone here who can assist me with a small problem? | 08:41 |
| Bluey | _bam other then print screen? | 08:41 |
| buffalo | hi | 08:41 |
| Kalumba | Catalin, I'd like to try | 08:42 |
| _bam | bluey: im after a screen capturing program | 08:42 |
| Catalin | thank you Kalumba | 08:42 |
| Bluey | catlain - we can try... | 08:42 |
| Bluey | _bam -- print screen will do the trick | 08:42 |
| _bam | bluey: video recording | 08:42 |
| Bluey | _bam dunno that... | 08:42 |
| Catalin | when i try to intall transmission 1.75 i have an error | 08:42 |

| _bam | bluey i did it before, i cant remember what i used though :p | 08:43 |
| Catalin | can i paste in main channel the error? | 08:43 |
| Bluey | catalain - not familiar with that... | 08:43 |
| hacking | hello | 08:43 |
| Bluey | _bam that's always a problem | 08:43 |
| Bluey | why I started putting stuph on http://www.pkill-9.com so if you find out let me know! | 08:43 |
| Bluey | catalain - if it's a couple of line yes... | 08:43 |
| Bluey | i gotta use an auto complete client....pidgin suxs | 08:44 |
| _bam | i agree, pidgin does suck | 08:45 |
| Bluey | i wonder if mirc will work.... | 08:45 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Bluey: pidgin has nick autocomplete | 08:45 |
| Bluey | ActionParsnip2 - how do I make it work? | 08:46 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Bluey: type actio then prress tab | 08:46 |
| Bluey | ahh didn't know that.. thanks... | 08:46 |
| Bluey | i figured it was pretty primitive and that didnt work | 08:46 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Bluey: thats the most common autocomplete in irc clients | 08:46 |
| Komak57 | Im trying to retrieve data from an old hard drive (40G) and its missing pin B1 (bottom row, first pin) so i cant connect it to a PC properly... any remmedies (googles coming up dry) | 08:46 |
| Bluey | ActionParsnip2: true - but I didn't know it worked here - I used it in irssi, xchat, etc -- but never tried here - because most things are broke | 08:47 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Bluey: no pidgin is pretty decent, people slate it because it doesnt have a lot of the irc stuff that some other clients do but if you just wanna chat and DC stuff | 08:47 |
| maruta | so, installed a fresh 9.04 back home with my syncmaster @ 1440x900, everything worked fine; now here, with an old crt (perfectly capable of 1024x768) i can't get a higher res than 640x768.. suggestions? | 08:47 |
| es_beto | no one knows a workaround or anything about the audio? | 08:47 |
| Bluey | ActionParsnip2: true | 08:48 |
| Bluey | ActionParsnip2: I am on 3 different networks atm | 08:48 |
| maruta | higher than 640x480 that is of course | 08:48 |
| ActionParsnip2 | es_beto: killall pulseaudio; rm -rf ~/.pulse* | 08:48 |
| Komak57 | Bluey: speaking of which, im using pidgin right now | 08:48 |
| ActionParsnip2 | es_beto: then press alt+f2 and run pulseaudio | 08:48 |
| Bluey | Komak57: i never got libpurple to work with pidgin | 08:48 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Bluey: i use carrier, its like pidgin but the devs listen to users | 08:49 |
| * Bluey is going to fire up mirc -- see if it will work brb. | 08:49 | |
| evilaim | G'night Neverland! | 08:49 |
| evilaim | Heee Heeeee *grabs crotch* | 08:49 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Bluey: and you can email them direct to suggest functionality, it also has the protocol icons next to the buddys to show the protocol | 08:49 |
| es_beto | done | 08:49 |
| geirha | ActionParsnip2: He left | 08:50 |
| Komak57 | ActionParsnip2: bluey's already offline | 08:50 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oh well | 08:50 |
| BlueMirc | back | 08:50 |
| BlueMirc | woo hoo! | 08:50 |
| BlueMirc | I didn't think that would work under wine but then otoh I have an old version of mirc | 08:51 |
| Komak57 | I need a remedy for a HD missing pin B1 (bottom first pin) so i can pull my data off of it.... | 08:51 |
| Komak57 | BlueMirc: i have an ancient mirc somewhere | 08:51 |
| BlueMirc | Komak57 -- well --- maybe a pin? | 08:51 |
| BlueMirc | runnving version 5.16 | 08:51 |
| BlueMirc | 6.16 | 08:52 |
| es_beto | ok ActionParsnip2 what i want to do is to listen the input signal | 08:52 |
| Komak57 | Bluemirc: the pin is some kind of copper/goldish mixture which is secured to the motherboard... | 08:52 |
| Komak57 | bluemirc: ive tried replacing it with another conductive material, but it doesnt seem to make a connection | 08:52 |
| chu_ | Cheers geirha, this devil's pie app looks cool | 08:52 |
| BlueMirc | Komak57 ouch....I am not a hardware guy -- maybe someone else? | 08:52 |
| ActionParsnip2 | es_beto: oh, that command will reset pulse back to defaults | 08:53 |
| BlueMirc | Komak57 just a suggestion - wirewrap? | 08:53 |
| es_beto | ActionParsnip2 yeah i know | 08:54 |
| es_beto | hahaha | 08:54 |
| BlueMirc | or find an unused pin and use that.... | 08:54 |
| BlueMirc | remove/resolder if possible | 08:54 |
| Komak57 | bluemirc: i guess i could destroy a pin from another HD (ive got a few crap spares) | 08:54 |
| BlueMirc | brb | 08:54 |
| Komak57 | bluemirc: dont think resoldering is possible | 08:55 |
| BlueMirc | Komak57that would be something worth trying.... | 08:55 |
| BlueMirc | Komak57 that's something for sure I couldn't do....I have pretty hose fine motor control | 08:55 |
| Bluey | okay need a break --- nytol.... | 08:56 |
| Komak57 | Bluemirc: i have decent control, but the problem is where it has to be soldered... i have to slide down next to the pins about 1-2 cm down (which is much too far to do any real good) | 08:56 |
| Komak57 | Bluemirc: unless someone knows how to make an adapter (female to male) i think i might be fudged for a bit | 08:57 |
| oroz | can anyone help with a mouse problem | 08:58 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: ask away | 08:58 |
| pozic | The graphical program showing that there are updates which pops up automatically has been saying for a few weeks already that there are updates which cannot be applied. How do I see why they cannot be applied or failed or whatever? | 08:59 |
| oroz | action thanks, ubuntu detects my mouse as a 32 button xextension pointer | 08:59 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pozic: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 08:59 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pozic: stupid gui apps hide the useful info, terminal shows whats going on | 09:00 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: ok, but does the mouse work ok? | 09:00 |
| pozic | ActionParsnip2: yep, that's my hatred for GUI applications. | 09:00 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pozic: +1 | 09:00 |
| pozic | ActionParsnip2: GUI applications can be better than terminal applications. | 09:00 |
| pozic | ActionParsnip2: it's just that nobody does it! | 09:01 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pozic: oh defiantely | 09:01 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pozic: in here its text based interface so i give terminal based help :D | 09:01 |
| pozic | ActionParsnip2: that doesn't show any error. | 09:01 |
| oroz | action: it moves around great, its the buttons that are problematic | 09:01 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: are you running desktop effects? | 09:01 |
| oroz | action: not at the moment | 09:01 |
| pozic | oroz: 32 buttons is kind of asking for problems ;) | 09:02 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pozic: try: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 09:02 |
| oroz | lol | 09:02 |
| vladimir | Hi guys....I am New on Ubuntu.. | 09:02 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: type actio and press tab to complete my nick | 09:02 |
| vladimir | ...very happy with that | 09:02 |
| oroz | oh | 09:02 |
| NoReflex | Hey guys! Is there a way to install a dmg (Apple setup file) in Ubuntu? | 09:02 |
| oroz | ActionParsnip2, cool ;) thanks | 09:02 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: if you run xev does it react when you click the mouse ? | 09:02 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: better :D | 09:02 |
| pozic | NoReflex: unlikely. | 09:03 |
| oroz | ActionParsnip2, not sure what that is lol | 09:03 |
| pozic | oroz: basically, just a program which returns a low-level number when an input event happens. | 09:03 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: run a gnome terminal (alt+f2, type gnome-terminal, press enter) | 09:03 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: you can then see if the system is recieving mouse click correctly | 09:04 |
| NoReflex | thx pozic | 09:04 |
| pozic | oroz: if you have a lot of buttons, you just have to bind the right one to what X considers mouse button 1,2,3. I don't know by heart anymore how to do that, but it is well documented. | 09:04 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: you can always define the mouse in xorg.conf | 09:04 |
| vladimir | Does Linux have an special program for sound woffer | 09:05 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: is your mouse fancy or is it just a standard mouse?? | 09:05 |
| oroz | ActionParsnip2, pozic ok, pressing alt+f2 didnt do anything, i know its supposed to pop up with a terminal but nope | 09:05 |
| pozic | oroz: then just open a terminal | 09:05 |
| oroz | ActionParsnip2, its not fancy, its a 7 button with dpi adjustment | 09:06 |
| oroz | pozic, i opened terminal and typed gnome-terminal, and all it did it opened another terminal ;) | 09:06 |
| oroz | ActionParsnip2, pozic sorry im kinda nub when it comes to linux ;) | 09:06 |
| pozic | oroz: if you want less dependence on other people, read a book on Linux/Unix. | 09:07 |
| pozic | oroz: it makes you a vastly more able user. | 09:07 |
| oroz | ActionParsnip2, ive used linux for over two months, always fixed stuff easily with google so i just figured id leave it as is lol | 09:08 |
| pozic | oroz: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-newbie/20127-7-button-mouse-1-wheel-how-map.html | 09:08 |
| oroz | pozic, what im trying to do is, disable emulation of 3rd button | 09:08 |
| pozic | oroz: you can do that with dpkg-reconfiguare xserver-xorg | 09:09 |
| oroz | pozic, ive 'setup' mouse in xorg, but its not taking it | 09:09 |
| pozic | reconfigure* | 09:09 |
| pozic | oroz: have you restarted X? | 09:09 |
| oroz | pozic, ive done that too, restarted about 30 times | 09:09 |
| oroz | lol | 09:09 |
| pozic | oroz: saying lol also doesn't help. | 09:09 |
| oroz | pozic, anyway, the 32 button thing wouldnt bother me at all, if mouse1+mouse2 didnt result in middle mouse | 09:10 |
| oroz | pozic, so if you know how i could fix that it would be greatly appreciated | 09:10 |
| elvis7 | 这里能说中文吗 | 09:10 |
| pozic | oroz: if you want some real help, put all the inputs you give and all the outputs you get on some paste site and someone will probably help. I don't have more time to help, sorry. | 09:10 |
| elvis7 | 有中国人吗 | 09:11 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: you can define the mouse in xorg.conf to give you control. Here is mine, you may be able to simply add mine (mines a 5 button thing) http://pastebin.com/f18ca94cc | 09:11 |
| elvis7 | 或是懂中文的也行呀 | 09:11 |

| es_beto | hello guys, i'm using ubuntu karmic beta, and i have one question related to audio, i want to hear the input device, in fedora i used a workaround which is the multimedia system selector where i can "test" the input sound and that way i hear it, but i can't find this option on ubuntu | 09:11 |
| ActionParsnip2 | !karmic | es_beto | 09:11 |
| ubottu | es_beto: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 29th, 2009 - Karmic is BETA and MAY break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 09:11 |

| aboziol | can someone plz answer a bash question :( | 09:12 |
| aboziol | ??:( | 09:12 |
| novice | Hello. I've just tried ubuntu 9.10 and my bluetooth keyboard doesnt work in it, though it works in 9.04. I would like to report a игпб but i'm totally new to the whole system and i don't want to make something really dumb. Can you please give me some useful links? Is it a bug or support request? I recall that my friend that helped me with various linux distributives, told me that this problem has to do something with the evdev rules, | 09:12 |
| novice | but i don't remember correctly. Although the keyboard is bluetooth, it seems that the bluetooth device is in some compatibility mode because there is no bluetooth visible to the bluetooth manager and the keyboard doesnt show in lspci or lsusb. | 09:12 |
| prince_jammys | aboziol: /join #bash | 09:12 |
| eRefre | oroz: have you checked that the xorg.config takes it? look in /etx/X11/xorg.conf | 09:12 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: if you copy my mouse section then add the identifier to the serverlayout section, you will be able to control and define the mose in xorg.conf | 09:12 |
| oroz | ActionParsnip2, thanks, ive also tried defining but for some reason x wont take it, probably has something to do with the 32 button thing | 09:12 |
| oroz | ActionParsnip2, ill take a look at yours, thanks | 09:12 |
| ActionParsnip2 | oroz: its worth a shot, xorg.conf supercedes HAL | 09:13 |
| oroz | eRefre, how do i know if it did or not? | 09:13 |
| eRefre | oroz: in the mouse section there should be a option that says EmulateThreeButtons | 09:14 |
| eRefre | there you should be able to just change to "no" | 09:15 |
| oroz | eRefre, yep, and action's says "no", but mine says "false", does it matter? | 09:15 |
| eRefre | yes | 09:16 |
| oroz | ActionParsnip2, ill copy yours ;) thanks much | 09:16 |
| digital_rouge | hello all | 09:17 |

| Fragsworth | Is there a really easy way to upgrade to the new version of gnome? | 09:20 |
| Kalumba | Fragsworth, Yes, update-manager -d but it is still in Beta | 09:21 |
| digital_rouge | i can use some help with some settings in ubuntu can anyone help | 09:21 |
| Fragsworth | Kalumba: I'm OK with a few bugs here and there, is it relatively stable though? | 09:21 |
| Guest76209 | You can get gnome-shell through the package manager | 09:21 |
| Kalumba | Fragsworth, I'm running it now and it is stable for me | 09:22 |
| Docteh | hrm | 09:22 |
| Kalumba | Fragsworth, It messed up my network-manager, but I have a way around that for now | 09:22 |

| kamil | hi guys | 09:26 |
| zer0cool | digital_rouge, what are you trying to do ? | 09:27 |
| kamil | what packages I need to download if I want to start using latex ? | 09:27 |
| Docteh | did you try "latex"? | 09:27 |
| ActionParsnip2 | zer0cool: hes gone | 09:27 |
| ActionParsnip2 | !latex | 09:28 |
| ubottu | tex is a language for describing a document, commonly used especially for scientific publishing. Information and instructions for installing TeX and other related packages can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LaTeX | 09:28 |
| kamil | Docteh: I tryied "sudo apt-get install texlive texlive-latex-extra texlive-math-extra texlive-pstricks texlive-science latex-beamer" | 09:28 |
| kamil | Is that enough at least for basics ..? | 09:29 |
| Flannel | kamil: Yeah | 09:29 |
| zer0cool | ActionParsnip2, how do i set my status to away or sumthing | 09:29 |
| zer0cool | ActionParsnip2, on the chat | 09:29 |
| ActionParsnip2 | !away | 09:29 |
| ubottu | You should avoid noisy away messages in a busy channel like #ubuntu, or other Ubuntu channels; it causes excessive scrolling which is unfair to new users. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 09:29 |
| zer0cool | !away | 09:29 |
| Docteh | :o | 09:30 |
| kamil | Flannel: so if I want to compile for example test.tex I should use "tex test.tex" | 09:31 |
| kamil | ? | 09:32 |
| guest | welcome | 09:32 |
| Flannel | kamil: pdflatex test.tex will generate a PDF, if you want a dvi, latex test.tex | 09:33 |

| Aperculum | ActionParsnip2: the places menu has bookmarks as submenu but I'd like them to be just there like in newer ubuntus | 09:43 |
| Aperculum | since I've done dist upgrade instead of clean install | 09:43 |

| Aperculum | something is curiously broken :) | 09:45 |
| bigmack83 | it stated that my session lasted less than 10 seconds and either an app had an issue starting or i had no disk space (which isnt the case, have plenty of room) | 09:46 |

| BlackDalek | I have a short vid I made years ago on a Window machine using a Pinnacle software video editor. I have so far not found anyway to play it in linux. I get sound but no video. I can't remember what video codec I used. How do I find out what I need to play it in Ubuntu? | 10:08 |

| BlackDalek | ActionParsnip2, sorry, none of the links you provided helped me. I remember I had a Pinnacle capture card at the time and it used an onboard hardware video codec, and I suspect I may have used that when I made this vid... I think it was called motion jpeg. Would I need to install this card back into my machine in order to be able to play this vid again or convert it to a different video format? | 10:22 |
| p22 | i have tried killing apache and restarting it so the fs can let go of log files owned by that process, but it doesn't help. | 10:22 |
| eguest039 | i want to delete the file from the local cache and start the downlad from scratch | 10:23 |
| p22 | would be grateful for any help... | 10:23 |
| ActionParsnip2 | BlackDalek: you may need to clear up what codec was used then see if there is a linux equiv | 10:23 |

| BlackDalek | ActionParsnip2, is there some way to find out which video codec is used from the avi file? | 10:24 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Guest95131: in about: plugins in opera does it show you have flash? | 10:24 |
| ActionParsnip2 | BlackDalek: file <filename> may tell you, not sure though | 10:24 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Guest95131: you can also put it in ~/.opera/plugins | 10:25 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Guest95131: i believe | 10:25 |
| Guest95131 | ActionParsnip2:in opera (content) there are two folders given: /usr/lib/opera/plugins:/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins | 10:26 |

| eguest039 | can anyone tell me whre wget downloads its files to | 10:29 |
| ActionParsnip2 | BlackDalek: nice, then you need a motionJPEG codec | 10:29 |
| rocko | make it ? | 10:29 |
| ActionParsnip2 | eguest039: wherever you download it to, if you didnt specify, the default is the pwd | 10:29 |
| eguest039 | okay | 10:29 |

| eguest039 | i was downlaoding a file and it cnacelled the donwload | 10:30 |
| eguest039 | gzip to unarchive the file but i got an error | 10:30 |
| rocko | eguest039, you can keep on downloading it | 10:30 |
| rocko | with the -c option | 10:30 |
| eguest039 | it will resume the dowload | 10:31 |
| rocko | wget -c url | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Guest95131: you can also try: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins or /usr/lib/firefox/plugins | 10:31 |
| rocko | yes | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Guest95131: if you use symbolic links instead of actually copying the file, you will save space | 10:31 |
| eguest039 | the problem is that the wget download is part of a bigger program and each time the progrma tries to run the gzip | 10:32 |
| rocko | are you just downloading files eguest039 ? | 10:32 |
| eguest039 | no downldnig and installing | 10:32 |
| rocko | or websites | 10:32 |
| eguest039 | a package | 10:32 |
| Guest95131 | ActionParsnip2: ok (but i copy it normally im new in ubuntu and dont know what symbolic links are...) | 10:32 |
| eguest039 | i am dowloading and installing some packages as part of a larger system | 10:33 |
| eguest039 | when the wget download started i cancelled it | 10:33 |
| rocko | well for downloads of single files I would recommend downthemall add on for firefox eguest039 | 10:33 |
| rocko | for website download I recommend wget or httrack | 10:34 |
| eguest039 | is it possiblet to delete portions of fles downloaded with wget so wget will start thee download from scratch | 10:35 |
| Guest95131 | ActionParsnip2: i copied it to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ but the error message comming again... | 10:35 |
| rocko | downthemall does a great job of accelerating downloads | 10:35 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Guest95131: its like a shortcut in windows, but the shortcut will act just like the file is there but takes up zero extra space on the disk | 10:35 |
| bigmack83 | ActionParsnip2, hrmm, didnt seem to work. but i found out it is a command not found error on the 'ls' command when /etc/gdm/Xsession tries to run on line 73. | 10:35 |
| rocko | eguest039, just remove the file | 10:35 |
| bigmack83 | still looking around | 10:36 |
| eguest039 | from where exactly. i remember u said i should look in my local folder . | 10:36 |
| rocko | if you want to start over don't use the -c option | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip2 | bigmack83: could comment out the line maybe, you can always un-comment if its bad | 10:36 |
| Guest95131 | ActionParsnip2: ok but it didnt solve my problems... | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip2 | bigmack83: i can pastebin my file if you like | 10:37 |

| erUSUL | EE_BB: :1 sorry i do not know what to add... according to docs it should work http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/rtl8187#rtl8187 | 12:06 |

| distant_voice | jdv ok SGD booted and I tried to boot Windows from there. it says "can't mount the partition", so I guess it won't help. I really don't want to overwrite my MBR and risk not being able to boot Ubuntu properly either | 12:12 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Idioteque: ok run: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 12:13 |
| Idioteque | ActionParsnip2, and..? | 12:13 |
| distant_voice | jdv when I try to boot from partition 0,0 normal grub tells me NTLDR is missing and SGD says "can't mount partition". can you make anything of that? | 12:13 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Idioteque: in the screen section it says Monitor "DELL S2409W" this is not the identifier of the monitor, it is the model name which isnt used. Change that line in the screen section to read: Monitor "Monitor0" | 12:14 |
| jdv | distant_voice did you try activating the windows partition | 12:15 |

| ActionParsnip2 | Idioteque: thats fine, did it moan? | 12:16 |
| ActionParsnip2 | jjjjjjfffff: not sure, espeak is a text to voice app so can read files out | 12:16 |
| distant_voice | jdv please look at my menu.lst http://pastebin.com/de3a06a6 shouldn't that work? it makes the partition active | 12:16 |

| ActionParsnip2 | Idioteque: copy the mode line and replace your one | 12:18 |
| Idioteque | ActionParsnip2, do you use DVI ? | 12:18 |

| samiam- | Hiya, I've got 2 x 1TB drives. One has about 500gb of data. Is LVM the best way to turn these two drives so that they can 'combine' their space? Can I do it without losing the data on the 1st drive with 500gb data? The 2nd drive is brand new and blank. Cheers :) | 13:20 |

| pawan | !compiz | 13:24 |
| ubottu | Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz | 13:24 |
| P1ro | yo, how i can remove enable3buttonemulation ?? or anything that is making it? since is not there | 13:24 |
| n00bHUN74 | hey while im here i installed KDE and like certain things are missing like update manager, package manager, alot of tools LOL this is my first time but by no means am savvy at linux...so im using gnome and they are there | 13:24 |
| indus | pawan: if its enabled, it runs auto | 13:25 |
| pawan | every time i have to type the command --replace | 13:25 |
| indus | pawan: but you question is not really clear, go to apperances>visual effects and enablre | 13:25 |
| indus | pawan: aah you mean on startup | 13:25 |
| pawan | yes | 13:26 |
| indus | pawan: havent you tried setting if from the system>preferences>appearance window | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | if you enable it.. it should rember... | 13:26 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pawan: if not, add an entry in the startup items thing to run: compiz --replace | 13:26 |
| Animagladius | Huhu | 13:26 |
| pawan | how | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | or use 'fusion-icon' and manage compiz on/off with it. | 13:26 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pawan: sytem -> pres -> startup items | 13:27 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pawan: add a new item and fillout the sections | 13:27 |
| pawan | great | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pawan: you got it now? | 13:28 |
| pawan | ya | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | pawan: compiz does work of you do a 'compiz --replace' in a terminal? | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip2 | pawan: sweet, you can also drag items off the gnome menu into there too | 13:29 |
| pawan | thanks | 13:29 |
| soreau | pawan: If you are able to set it in sys>prefs>appearance>Visual Effects tab <- set to anything other than None (this will start up on log in and cause metacity not to be started first) | 13:29 |
| ActionParsnip2 | soreau: ooh i'll do that on my gf's | 13:29 |

| Acorn | is it possible to reset your password if you've forgotten your username? | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: look in /home/ to learn your username? | 13:32 |
| Acorn | using a boot cd? | 13:32 |
| Dr_Willis | or the rescue/revovery mode | 13:32 |
| Acorn | which option in the recovery mode? | 13:33 |
| r_s___ | hi all | 13:34 |
| slacker_nl | does anyone know a lightweight excel reader (doesn't even need to write excel) | 13:34 |
| Acorn | Dr_Willis: the "try to make free space" option? | 13:34 |
| Acorn | oh no, that doesn't do anything | 13:35 |
| r_s___ | I have ubuntu 9.04 and wanna create a swap area,, which is better.. to create a swap partition (it's difficult for me coz I don't have enough space for format) or to create a swap file ? | 13:35 |
| Serendippo | Is there a theoretical speed limit when transfering files through samba from one machine to another? Right now I share files through samba between 2 ubuntu machines, connected through my router. This router doesn't support Gigabit, so i'm stuck with 100mbps speed (about 10MB/s). If I would have a gigabit connection (1000mbps), would speed equally increase 10x (aka 100MB/s)? | 13:35 |
| deww | r_s___: either is fine. | 13:35 |
| Blank__ | Serendippo, the next bottleneck would be your hard drives' access speed | 13:35 |
| Blank__ | and/or the busses between the NICs and the drives | 13:36 |
| r_s___ | deww: so I can create the swap file without any drawbacks ? | 13:36 |
| Serendippo | Blank__: yes i know, but HDD speed is still a lot more than 10MB/s, i'd get an increase, right? | 13:36 |
| bastid_raZor | r_s___: a swap file would work just fine in place of an actual swap partition | 13:36 |
| Blank__ | also, gigabit doesn't factor in the overhead of networking (which should be negligible) | 13:36 |
| Blank__ | Serendippo, yeah there would be an increase, hard to say how much | 13:36 |
| r_s___ | thx alot !! | 13:36 |
| Serendippo | Blank__: i'm thinking to buy a new pc in the short term, & wonder if it's worth to pick a motherboard with 2 Gbit LAN. | 13:36 |
| bazhang | slacker_nl, the lightest I can see is oleo ; gnumeric is not exactly what you would call light | 13:36 |
| slacker_nl | oleo? | 13:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: never seen a 'try to make free space' option.. go to the terminal. look in the /home/ directory to see what user home directories exist | 13:37 |
| slacker_nl | lemme see | 13:37 |
| Serendippo | Blank__: ... ports | 13:37 |
| Blank__ | what would two NICs do for you? | 13:37 |
| aadis | hello all | 13:37 |
| Serendippo | Blank__: i'd bypass my router, & connect the 2 pcs directly through gigabit ports. | 13:37 |
| aadis | i'm trying to setup a software RAID-1 under 9.04, but after installation the kernel panics | 13:37 |
| Blank__ | ah | 13:37 |

| bazhang | slacker_nl, karmic questions in #ubuntu+1 | 13:40 |
| Acorn | Dr_Willis: the problem is I can't get to the terminal because i can't log in. I'm booting up puppy now so I should be able to see | 13:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: the ubuntu grub menu has some rescue/recovery mode.. or just Mount the installed systems filesystems and look in the 'home' directory to see what users exist in there. | 13:41 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: puppy should be able to mount them. | 13:41 |
| slacker_nl | bazhang: /whois slacker_nl and look for ubuntu+1 ;) | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: the 'recovery/rescue' mode can get you to a root 'console login terminal' | 13:42 |
| Acorn | Dr_Willis: yep, found the username | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: now WRITE it down. :) | 13:42 |
| slacker_nl | bazhang: but oleo is not what I need, cannot open xls files | 13:42 |
| Acorn | I'm actually on crunchbang linux | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: and that matters because? | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 13:43 |
| Acorn | oh, well, the root console login terminal needs a password | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: then you or the disrto set a root password. thats not normal for ubuntu. | 13:44 |
| P1ro | yo, how i can make the mouse buttons on ubuntu 9.04 works normal, i mean when i press left and right click at same time they work like 3rd mouse, i checked the xorg.conf and no enable3buttonemulation any other hint? | 13:44 |
| Acorn | Dr_Willis: yeah, that's the problem | 13:44 |
| Acorn | If I've followed these steps: 4. Highlight the line that begins kernel and press 'e' to edit 5. Go to the very end of the line, change the ro to rw and add init=/bin/bash , do I need to change it back afterwards? | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: no.. or you could just append 'single' to the end.. | 13:47 |
| a|3x | ubuntu freezes when i try to mount encrypted file container with truecrypt, any ideas why this could be happening? | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: why are you needint to do this now? You know the username.. or did you forget both username and password? | 13:48 |
| Acorn | yep | 13:48 |
| Acorn | I was experimenting with distros :( | 13:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Acorn: you could of used the live cd and 'chroot'ed into the installed system then used the passwd command | 13:48 |
| Acorn | well, i should be able to do it this way now | 13:49 |
| datta | i am trying to uninstall many of the programs given to me in kde | 13:49 |

| daver | hi there | 14:09 |
| daver | any arm users on here? | 14:09 |
| Blank__ | apt-cacher is absolutely awesome for people like me with a few ubuntu installs (or any other OS that can use .debs) | 14:09 |
| MenZa | I use my arms on a daily basis, daver. :) | 14:09 |
| daver | lol, i meant the arm architecture | 14:10 |
| Blank__ | especially with a very sub par internet connection like mine, i need all the caching i can get | 14:10 |
| avishek | Dr_Willis, Blank__: thank you for your suggestion. what exactly is apt-cacher | 14:10 |
| MenZa | daver: I figured. I suggest asking your question, instead of anyone's using ARM. | 14:10 |
| Blank__ | it's a collection of perl scripts that act as a proxy for .deb downloading | 14:10 |
| Blank__ | which also keeps a copy of the .deb packages on the computer it's run on | 14:10 |
| daver | i'm waiting for a SmartQ 7 to arrive from Hong Kong, and i'm wondering about rolling my own 9.04 for it with xfce | 14:11 |
| Blank__ | and since you configure it as a proxy in any client computers, if another computer requests the same package, apt-cacher spits it out super fast | 14:11 |
| daver | i'm wondering has anyone else done similar? | 14:11 |

| lodder | sipior: ok then | 14:22 |
| Koterpillar | shawn_, newest stable or newest dev? | 14:22 |
| MenZa | !firefox-3.5 | 14:22 |
| ubottu | 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 on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 14:22 |
| MenZa | :) | 14:22 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip Newest stable yeah 3.5 is the one I think | 14:22 |
| JoshuaL | shawn_, just wait till karmic is released :) | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: 3.5 is in the reops already | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 | 14:22 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 Got it thanks :) | 14:23 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: you will need the 2nd link in the factoid above if you are not using jaunty | 14:23 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: you are also ale to uninstall 3.0 if you wish | 14:23 |
| === basalte is now known as feldspath | ||
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 Can I uninstall it from Synaptic? | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: if you want | 14:24 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 I'm still trying to get used to using the command line for more things... I do find it quicker but I just forget commands a lot... It would be nice if I had a little pocket reference xD | 14:25 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: as you use cli more you will learn the commands | 14:25 |
| MenZa | shawn_: It'll stick, once you've used them enough ;) | 14:25 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: you could even write some scripts to do common tasks | 14:25 |
| MenZa | shawn_: Just like, the more you drive a car, the better you (generally) get at it. | 14:25 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 Yes but I only know like two CLI commands right now I just need a place where I can learn how to do things from it | 14:27 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: there are guides online, and a man page for each command. Just learn what you need to do when you need to do it rather than attempting to master every command | 14:27 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 Yeah makes sense... Is the Ubuntu terminal different from a normal Linux shell? I heard theres differences | 14:28 |
| bazhang | http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/ shawn_ | 14:28 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: its a bash interpretter, you may find some linux shells use others like sh or dash | 14:28 |

| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: passwd | 14:29 |
| === feldspath is now known as basalte | ||
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: you will then be able to change your password | 14:29 |
| xopen | ActionParsnip2, thanks, how about create a super user with password? | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: your user is already one | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: use sudo and gksudo when you need power | 14:30 |
| xopen | ActionParsnip2, currently i am root. but i want to create a user with password | 14:30 |
| aurionkratos | is a ubuntu developer here? | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: adduser nameofuser | 14:30 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 Alright I rand that command to install firefox3.5 but it's not showing up anywhere | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: you shouldnt be logging on as root | 14:30 |
| aurionkratos | i have a huge bug, but i cant submit | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: should be in applications -> internet | 14:31 |
| xopen | yes. that's why. i want to create a user with password. | 14:31 |
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: thats fine, just remember to add the user to the admin group, and disable the root accounr | 14:31 |
| ActionParsnip2 | !adduser | xopen | 14:31 |
| ubottu | xopen: To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "admin" - See !sudo | 14:31 |

| Pici | !shiretoko | shawn_ | 14:32 |
| ubottu | shawn_: FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: you can have all 3 if you wish | 14:32 |
| shawn_ | Pici OHHH its named Shiretoko not sure why but Okay xD | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: they are seperate apps | 14:32 |
| xopen | ActionParsnip2, how could i go to that user from root? | 14:32 |
| Pici | shawn_: Please see ubottu's link for the why. | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: log off, log on as new user | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: the user will need to be a member of the group "admin" to be able to use sudo | 14:33 |
| xopen | ActionParsnip2, i cann't. It's automatically login as root | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: then disable autologon | 14:34 |
| ActionParsnip2 | xopen: autologging on as root is the worst thing you can do | 14:34 |

| airman00 | What is the easiest way to transfer all my stuff from Ubuntu 8 to Ubuntu 9? Is there some transfer wizard or something | 14:35 |
| lodder | I just make ext4 to a new lvm partition and the numbers don't add up with df: 335G 13G 305G 5% | 14:36 |
| Klatuferatanektu | is there a terminal in kde, i can search with Strg-F? | 14:36 |
| ActionParsnip2 | airman00: you can resize the / partition to make a seperate partition for /home | 14:36 |
| shawn_ | Why does Ubuntu not like to have the latest Firefox? | 14:36 |
| lodder | Do I do something wrong? | 14:36 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: it can | 14:36 |
| sipior | lodder: you'll want to use tune2fs to change the reserved block allocation to 0% (the default is 5%) | 14:36 |
| Pici | airman00: What do you mean by transfer? Are you trying to upgrade? | 14:37 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 I know but why not by default or why dont they release the Firefox updates through the update manager? | 14:37 |
| filgy | shawn_: firefox 3.5 was released after jaunty was in a stable/security updates only phase | 14:37 |
| Pici | shawn_: Firefox 3.5 is not an 'update' for 3.0, it is a different release. | 14:37 |
| airman00 | @Action . How can I do that? | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: its a seperate app in jaunty due to the nature of shiretoko | 14:37 |
| lodder | sipior: thx | 14:38 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: 3.7 is codenamed minefield | 14:38 |
| lodder | sipior: what is the full command? and what is the purpose for the reserved space? | 14:38 |
| DimebagDarrell | Hello. Need help with a thing. I'd like to change folders colour and to customize my ui. How to do this? Are there tools to change the interface or colors? | 14:38 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 Will extensions and themes for Shiretoko work on Ubuntu? | 14:38 |
| filgy | although naming a stable firefox release after its codename could be debated ;p | 14:38 |
| opensky | hi | 14:38 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: your browser will check compatibility | 14:39 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: theres also a plugin to tell the browser to force compatibility | 14:39 |
| sabag | help... | 14:39 |
| Pici | ActionParsnip2: Minefield is always the codename for the development release, its not the codename for 3.7 | 14:39 |
| RLa | how the heck to turn off network interface renaming? | 14:39 |
| RLa | it's extremely annoying | 14:39 |
| opensky | my adsl modem can not get ip i use ubuntu 9.0.4 where do i have to go for set ip? | 14:39 |
| sipior | lodder: tune2fs -m 0 <partition>. the allocation was made originally to allow the superuser to function, even in the event that the main system disk was completely full. with TB drives now commonplace, a 5% reservation is obviously rather excessive. | 14:39 |
| ActionParsnip2 | Pici: gotcha, i was just reading what it said now in the about but i see your point | 14:40 |

| sabag | help | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip2 | sabag: run: sudo fdisk -l is it still lost? | 14:41 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 I want Firefox to run pretty fast would applying a theme or a few add-ons slow it down noticeably? | 14:41 |
| DimebagDarrell | Koterpillar: no. It isnt. | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: it can do as the addons are loaded too | 14:42 |
| shawn_ | ActionParsnip2 How about themes? | 14:42 |
| Koterpillar | DimebagDarrell, What do you miss then? There are links to download new themes there, download, unpack them and look into them | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: same | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip2 | shawn_: less plugins and themes = faster browser | 14:43 |
| Koterpillar | shawn_, IMHO there is always a default theme in use - icons and all that - so it won't change anything | 14:43 |
| sabag | now i can see him in the sudo | 14:43 |
| sabag | what next? | 14:43 |
| ActionParsnip2 | sabag: then its not lost is it :) | 14:43 |

| ringo999 | eelis_: I'm wondering, after the first restart, did you still have sound? | 14:47 |
| Koterpillar | Mohammad[B], since you can ping it (can you?), DNS is fine, but SMTP seems to be blocked | 14:48 |
| ringo999 | eelis_: also, what does this give you: cat /proc/asound/version | 14:48 |
| eelis_ | What do you mean the first restart? I only restarted once | 14:48 |
| Mohammad[B] | Koterpillar, this is on a VPS | 14:48 |

(we're both using latest version of ubuntu), anyone that got some ideas on how to get the gfx card downloaded,installed and working? google'd some, but can't find any help. Thanks for any help. | 14:52 |
| deadman | bastid_raZor, it does support in VGA! but will it support in DVI? | 14:52 |
| irmandos | i have apt-cacher-ng and ebox installed | 14:52 |
| irmandos | i cannot connect to http://serverip:3142 | 14:53 |

| joaopinto | irmandos, is apt-cacher-ng running ? | 14:53 |
| deadman | bastid_raZor, really? so no hope huh? | 14:53 |
| irmandos | yes, i checked using ps -A | grep apt-cacher-ng | 14:53 |
| joaopinto | irmandos, have you checked /etc/apt-cacher-ng/acng.conf ? | 14:54 |

| eelis_ | I'll continue to use Takala as a nick | 14:55 |

| bastid_raZor | deadman: for the 5200 card i use an s-Video cable to connect it to a 47" TV. it will use the entire screen at 1280x1024 so i don't have to have 1900x1050. lower the DPI to make things smaller and fake a larger resolution | 14:55 |
| === basalte is now known as feldspath | ||
| joaopinto | irmandos, yes it can | 14:55 |
| joaopinto | irmandos, stop the firewall and test it | 14:55 |
| axle | sipior: just files i've opened etc.. temp files etc... | 14:56 |
| === venkatg is now known as gvenkat_away | ||
| deadman | bastid_raZor, :S i think i'll stick to vga in that case :S | 14:56 |
| sipior | axle: there's a "recent files" entry in the main menu, as i recall | 14:56 |
| bastid_raZor | deadman: your way probably looks better too. | 14:57 |
| irmandos | joaopinto: i have stopped the firewall and the page loads fine | 14:58 |
| irmandos | do u maybe know how I can have the firwall unlocked for that port? | 14:58 |
| axle | sipior: that just links to the files themselves, i was thinking, when you open a file in a text editor, a temp copy is made, after you save it etc.. is that temp copy stored somewhere, or kinda like when your browser saves things for quickers loading | 14:58 |
| Koterpillar | axle, some editors create file~ when editing file | 14:59 |
| axle | Koterpillar: there is now temporary location holding tons of data of recent activity on the computer? | 15:00 |
| axle | there is no*** | 15:00 |
| Koterpillar | there is no such thing | 15:01 |
| Koterpillar | at least easily accessible | 15:01 |

| P0lux | is it possible that the externeal harddrive that I have is not compatible with the system files ext-2-3-4 ??? | 15:14 |
| GSF1200S | I have 2 profiles, one for each of my screens | 15:14 |
| ActionParsnip2 | DimebagDarrell: should be fine | 15:14 |
| GSF1200S | p0lux: what? | 15:14 |
| grawity | P0lux: You mean filesystems? No. Harddrives just store anything the OS tells them to; they don't care about the filesystem you use. | 15:14 |
| P0lux | I formated my external harddrive in ext 2 then ext 3 but it seems that I cannot make a transfer, it freezes | 15:15 |
| GSF1200S | p0lux: those filesystems should work on any drive- the drive doesnt know any better | 15:15 |
| ocs | thanks | 15:15 |
| P0lux | then I formated in NTFS | 15:15 |
| P0lux | and it seems to work well | 15:15 |
| P0lux | that's what I thought too | 15:15 |
| P0lux | but still | 15:15 |
| Pici | !enter | P0lux | 15:15 |
| ubottu | P0lux: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 15:15 |
| GSF1200S | p0lux: try jfs or reiserfs- perhaps something is wrong with ext2 utils? | 15:16 |
| P0lux | I formated with GParted | 15:16 |
| GSF1200S | p0lux: that doesnt matter- gparted works fine. What filesystem is Ubuntu on/ what version of ubuntu are you running? | 15:17 |
| P0lux | ubuntu ext3 | 15:18 |
| P0lux | alright, I'll try that again | 15:18 |
| P0lux | thank you | 15:18 |
| bro | i have a problem with python process running on 100% CPU usage. how can i find out what program calls python to maybe fix a possible issue? i may kill the process, but it will come back | 15:18 |
| Jere | Hi, Please I need help to find a solution for my screen (Samsung SyncMaster 551v) on Ubuntu 9.04 | 15:19 |
| qdb | hello. can you help me to connect windows op. sys tem on other machine to internet through ubuntu where 2 nic and 1 dsl modem. may be one nic does not work correctly... | 15:19 |
| GSF1200S | p0lux: try to run fsck on the partition once you get done with partitioning, even though gparted should do that automagically | 15:19 |
| GSF1200S | Jere: what video card, version of ubuntu, do you have? | 15:19 |
| qdb | because after power turn off and on internet stopped and set modem to other nic card and internet started | 15:20 |
| Koterpillar | bro, htop | 15:20 |
| Bob_Dole | is it at all possible to change /var to its own hard drive -after- installing? I'm using a smaller-than-I'd-Like HD, but had to get something up immediately. | 15:20 |
| qdb | (it did not work with old nic card) | 15:20 |
| saml | how can I execute script after machine is fully booted? | 15:20 |
| Jere | I have Ubuntu 9.04 and Im not sure of my card, could be SyncMaster 551v? | 15:20 |
| blkdg | hi, i am trying to install ubuntu PPC. the error i get is no kernl modules were found. i downloaded the desktop ppc image for 9.04 and the checksum is right. any ideas? | 15:21 |
| silbermm_ | trying to uninstall db2exc using apt-get fails although it was installed though apt-get. Ist there anyway to manually uninstall it? | 15:21 |
| GSF1200S | qdb: I would help you, but I had huge issues trying to use IPtables to forward internet to another comp | 15:21 |
| grawity | Bob_Dole: Boot from a LiveCD, move the contents of /var, edit /etc/fstab. | 15:21 |
| Koterpillar | Bob_Dole, yes, add it to fstab, don't forget to copy the data | 15:21 |
| Bob_Dole | grawity, thought as much. But didn't want to find something was angered by it, though. | 15:21 |
| IsUp | hello | 15:21 |
| Koterpillar | Jere, what is your problem? | 15:21 |
| GSF1200S | Jere: open a terminal and type: lspci and youll see either nvidia, intel, or ati in one of the lines | 15:21 |
| blkdg | by the way, the faq says in know issues that ppc disks can hang, and to use live-nosplash-powerpc, but that command does not work, so i just hit entre at the prompt to start the installer | 15:21 |
| bro | Koterpillar, thanks man, it's the gnome_media_keys :| | 15:22 |
| grawity | Bob_Dole: If you correctly add the fstab entry, most programs will not even notice the change. | 15:22 |
| IsUp | i have ubuntu server 7.04. i am accidently deleted "libgc6" with 'apt-get remove'. now i dont have any compilers also apt is not working too. | 15:22 |
| GSF1200S | Jere: yeah, I do also need to know whats wrong with the screen. Resolution? Not coming on? | 15:22 |
| IsUp | i know its sounds funny but i need help | 15:22 |
| IsUp | my server is located on a remote place so i am unable to reinstall, any ideas? | 15:22 |
| Koterpillar | IsUp, what access do you have at all? | 15:23 |
| Bob_Dole | IsUp: I don't even know if 7.04 has its mirrors up. its support has been discontinued | 15:23 |
| IsUp | i just have one SSH session. | 15:23 |
| grawity | Hmm | 15:23 |
| GSF1200S | IsUp: download libgc6 and manually unpack the contents into the default directories.. PITA but it will work | 15:23 |
| veggteppe | Anyone know why my warcraft 3 gets error when attempting install with wine: Error: "There was a problem authenticating your download". Appreciate any help. | 15:23 |
| grawity | What's the codename of 7.04 again :| | 15:23 |
| IsUp | i am unable to make 2nd ssh session also i am able to connect my server with over scp too | 15:23 |
| IsUp | i think it's Larry or something | 15:23 |
| grawity | IsUp: wget? ftp? curl? python? | 15:24 |
| GSF1200S | IsUp: im not sure if some links will need to be made though | 15:24 |
| IsUp | wget is working | 15:24 |
| Koterpillar | IsUp, debootstrap haven't failed anyone | 15:24 |
| Appiah | veggteppe: wc3 or wow? :) | 15:24 |
| veggteppe | Appiah: wc3 :) | 15:24 |
| grawity | IsUp: What is the exact package name? | 15:24 |
| Appiah | veggteppe: so the installation does not finish? | 15:25 |
| Koterpillar | IsUp, sorry, missed the original question :( | 15:25 |
| veggteppe | I run it in wine, and when it starts downloading (it's the download manager) i get error even before it starts:p | 15:25 |
| IsUp | "libgc6" removed also all depencidies | 15:25 |
| Appiah | oh | 15:25 |
| Appiah | download manager | 15:25 |
| IsUp | gcc, cc, make, python, apt | 15:25 |
| qdb | GSF1200S, it seems i set all correctly, may be i need make some thing in windows, may be nic does not work | 15:25 |

| grawity | IsUp: I'm not going to ask why did you confirm removing apt... Do you still have dpkg? | 15:26 |
| qdb | i have just installed samba but have not restarted, i think restart is not needed for sharing internet | 15:26 |
| IsUp | i just have dpkg-configure and dpkg-reconfigure | 15:26 |
| rsk | qdb: samba is not a tool for sharing internet | 15:26 |
| lab | help new to ubuntu | 15:26 |
| Appiah | this is fixed in later releases of wine veggteppe | 15:26 |
| n8tuser | IsUp-> i dont know if tasksel still works, that also will select to download packages | 15:26 |
| qdb | i know | 15:26 |
| blkdg | thnaks anyhow | 15:27 |
| IsUp | grawity: do you think i can recover or should i install now? | 15:27 |
| Koterpillar | IsUp, actually, suggestion still stands: download debootstrap, install apt inside chroot, use it on your system | 15:27 |
| veggteppe | Appiah: Just confused since it worked some earlyer time xD hehe, but got a guide or something to how i can update my wine? to latest version? some people sayu that that would work :p | 15:27 |
| qdb | for that i say i think restart is not needed | 15:27 |
| GSF1200S | qdb: Im sorry, I really dont know what to suggest? I can suggest some basics- can you ping both computers both ways? using cat5 cable, etc? | 15:27 |
| IsUp | Koterpillar, how can i install deboostrap on my system? | 15:27 |
| grawity | IsUp: Ubuntu 7.04? I would recommend a reinstall. | 15:27 |
| n8tuser | IsUp-> Koterpillar idea is good too | 15:27 |
| Koterpillar | !debootstrap | 15:27 |
| ubottu | debootstrap is used to create a !Debian or Ubuntu base system from scratch, without requiring the availability of !dpkg or !APT. It does this by downloading !.deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them into a directory you can eventually !chroot into. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot for more information | 15:27 |
| IsUp | i dont have dpkg on my system :) | 15:27 |
| qdb | GSF1200S, what is cat5 cable? i will try ping ip addresses | 15:28 |
| Appiah | veggteppe oh well either read the bug reports on winehq and get an idea on a workaround then , or try to update wine , try downloading using "ppa" (non-offical packages) for wine | 15:28 |
| Appiah | or patching and compiling yourself (hard for beginners) | 15:28 |

| grawity | IsUp: Agreed | 15:31 |
| Koterpillar | IsUp, yes | 15:31 |
| grawity | IsUp: Even if you did fix it (which is possible), it's a really old release of Ubuntu. | 15:31 |
| IsUp | okay, my workmate is telling "if i can install cc, then i can fix it" | 15:32 |
| Bob_Dole | Ubuntu 8.04 is still supported, and will be for a while. Ubuntu 7.04 is not supported anymore, so it's definetely a good idea to upgrade. | 15:32 |

| ubottu | vijay: 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 | 15:53 |
| vijay | what was that | 15:54 |

| AncientSocrates | i have a pc with no access to the internet on which i installed ubuntu 9.10 beta. i want to upgrade it to the stable when realeased using a usb sticks and files from another pc. but how would i know which files i need? | 15:57 |
| Radtoo | toehio: maybe some application is occupying your sound hardware rather than going through pulse audio or some other software with sound mixer functionality... | 15:57 |
| hdon | vijay: although it is tempting to address a specific person when asking a question, it is usually counterproductive, since people who might have read a general address might skip what is being said to another user specifically. also, i don't know what your problem is, so i can't propose a solution. | 15:57 |
| dumarc | transportduchesne | 15:57 |
| toehio | Radtoo: I disabled puslseaudio a long time ago; I now only use alsa | 15:57 |
| toehio | Radtoo: how could I find the problem | 15:57 |
| DimebagDarrell | mnaines: you there? | 15:58 |
| hdon | toehio: maybe try asking #alsa. how did you disable pulseaudio anyway? sometimes i think about doing the same thing | 15:58 |
| Radtoo | toehio: Alsa with dmix can make things more difficult at times... but I guess you'd try and stop running applications until it maybe works, then make sure to reconfigure the application(s) at fault to use alsa and dmix rather than oss or whatever they use now | 15:58 |
| Pici | AncientSocrates : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion. | 15:58 |
| toehio | Radtoo: OK,thanks | 15:59 |
| DimebagDarrell | Pici: can you help me with that theme? Can't use it because a GTK+ thing is missing >_> | 15:59 |
| Pici | DimebagDarrell: What exactly does the error say? | 15:59 |
| DimebagDarrell | W8 | 16:00 |
| Radtoo | toehio: "lsof" may also help.. like lsof /dev/dsp. Unfortunately it won't always, different audio subsystems may use different files (or you can't see they use a sound device that way 'cuase they do stuff int he kernel) | 16:00 |
| mnaines | DimebagDarrell: Try extracting the theme folder to the desktop then typing sudo cp -r $HOME/Desktop/themefoldername /usr/share/themes | 16:00 |
| Radtoo | toehio: So trying all the apps may be the most sure way to find the culprit in the end, failing some complex ways to debug kernel space ;) | 16:00 |

| JanC89 | Hi! Just installed Ubuntu on my Macbook version 2.1. However the keyboard layout isn't quite right. The "alt gr" doesn't work, so I can't do the "at" sign etc. I've then remapped the keys using xmodmap, and now the at signs work. However, only in the terminal. I think it has to do with the fact that Ubuntu now uses X Keyboard Extension. I've tried to change layout using the preference tool, but cant get the at sign to work | 16:08 |
| * Dekko wonders if anyone has experience with Audacious2? Where is the file that contains the Open/Play URL list? I need to delete some entries there. | 16:08 | |
| sabag | what is arch , i installed the ubunutu tuday | 16:08 |
| sabag | today | 16:08 |
| Koterpillar | silbermm_, so if you want to package something which will go to /bin/, you can store it in bin/ inside deb | 16:08 |
| hdon | sabag: unfortunately the world is limited to the flash player binaries that adobe provides, since it is not open source software. there may not be an IA32 linux binary available at all, although i have no reason to suspect there isn't. | 16:08 |
| Koterpillar | sabag, run that command in a terminal | 16:08 |
| silbermm_ | oh, i see | 16:08 |
| Koterpillar | !terminal | sabag | 16:08 |

| DimebagDarrell | nlogax: didn't understand the folder thing. | 17:32 |
| nlogax | DimebagDarrell: create a folder named .fonts in your home directory | 17:32 |
| llutz | SeySayux: depends on your router-software. most offer something like "static leases" for dhcp, which is like static-ip for client, even if they use dhcp. | 17:32 |
| SeySayux | llutz: fantastic. any hint on which man page I should start plowing through to configure that on my box? | 17:33 |
| DimebagDarrell | nlogax: then paste the folder with the font or the ttf file? | 17:34 |

| pjustice13 | Help, my wireless won't log onto any networks that have a password | 17:54 |
| geirha | DimebagDarrell: Argh, yeah :( I thought icon themes would work that way as well, but apparently not. The manual way is to create a folder «.icons» in your home-folder, and drag the folder from the archive into it | 17:54 |
| baldrick | mnaines1: thanks.. Does Banshee show intuition in organizing MP3s that do not have all their properties ? | 17:54 |

| bruno123 | hi all, I have been having some sound issues within Windows and Ubuntu Linux- which makes me think there is a problem with my hardware setup. Anyways, what happens is that if I am in a voice chat program like Teamspeak and playing a game like COD2 or Cod5.....the other players hear my voice but also the ingame sounds. They think I have my speakers turned up to loud, but I am actually using headphones with speakers off. Headphone with mic plugs into the f | 19:04 |
| werfact | vitrualbox or vmware? | 19:04 |
| teknozwizard | system33: I ran into that problem and my research showed me that when it does that, it's because the Compiz plugin isn't compatible at all with the hardware of your system so it automatically disables it so you don't have to worry about any serious software damage. | 19:04 |
| dmsuperman | virtualbox, werfact | 19:04 |
| Out_Cold | dury new releases are buggy and not always working on non generic machines | 19:04 |

| dmsuperman | werfact: Try it? | 19:04 |
| werfact | dmsuperman, thats a long way | 19:05 |
| Out_Cold | werfact, usually if your sound works on the host it works in the VM | 19:05 |
| perlsyntax | i onlt see it for fedora 11 | 19:05 |
| dury | Out_Cold: this machine is 4 GB RAM and Core duo | 19:06 |
| teknozwizard | system33: Not sure. Sometimes it's non-compatible hardware due to a driver upgrade. I know that happened. I'm currently trying to figure out why my audio is just fine and perfectly loud on my Windows partition, but when I switch over to my Ubuntu side, the audio degrades heavily, even with the volumn all the way up. | 19:06 |
| werfact | Out_Cold, k, thanks will give it a go | 19:06 |
| perlsyntax | teknozwizard, then show me the link saying you found it. | 19:06 |
| system33 | teknozwizard: degrades meaning becomes distorted or just quiet? | 19:06 |

| teknozwizard | Out_Cold: IEC958, Analog L, Analog L. | 19:14 |
| Out_Cold | dury, you could try #firefox? | 19:15 |
| system33 | teknozwizard: but make sure pcm is not to the max because it distorts my sound when it's over 75 | 19:15 |
| Out_Cold | teknozwizard, those don't have volume bars do they? | 19:15 |
| teknozwizard | Out_Cold, system33: No, they don't have bars and I just set my PCM from 100 to 75<>75. | 19:16 |

| Out_Cold | i made an old xbox controller as a game pad by soldering a USB to it | 19:19 |
| teknozwizard | system33: Maxing all the bars worked, but IEC958, and the Analogs don't change at all - even after hitting m and playing with them, which is fine. What I did was turned my PCM back to 100<>100 to test for distortion, there's minor distortion, so I'm going to turn it down, but I also turned my FRONT up from 50<>50 to 100<>100 and it's much better now. | 19:19 |
| Out_Cold | almostAg33k, you need to add a driver for it | 19:19 |
| almostAg33k | Out_Cold: do you know where i can find it? | 19:19 |
| system33 | teknozwizard: just remember to type alsactl store when you exit so that your preferences are saved | 19:19 |

| teknozwizard | system33: Unfortunately, turning PCM down starts the problems over again.... | 19:20 |
| almostAg33k | Out_Cold: what should i search? | 19:20 |
| system33 | teknozwizard: well, leave it up then, if the distortion is not too bad, it's awful on my system | 19:20 |
| Dr_Willis | almostAg33k: try a game that uses gamepad. and see if it sees the controller.. also checj 'dmesg' output after you plug it in | 19:20 |

| teknozwizard | Good lord...I mention wanting to play WoW on Linux and everyone starts talking! ^_^ | 19:27 |
| ojii | good point Dr_Willis | 19:27 |
| Out_Cold | IRC is my favorite MMORG | 19:27 |

| system33 | Dr_Willis: I rolled d20 just now, nothing happened. | 19:27 |
| teknozwizard | Out_Cold: Why do I have to have lots of patience and hair to rip out? | 19:27 |
| Out_Cold | teknozwizard, because not everything magically works like windows... | 19:27 |
| Dr_Willis | system33: critical failure - You have died. | 19:27 |
| Out_Cold | teknozwizard, and usually it'll take a day or 2 per problem for you to figure out | 19:28 |
| jase- | is it alright if i repaste my question since its scrolled far away =D | 19:28 |
| system33 | Dr_Willis: Damn, this is some hard game :S | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis | teknozwizard: i tend to rip out my hair when working with windows... | 19:28 |

| Nooneshere | I got an error doing it. Error python: can't open file 'qcfrob.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory | 19:28 |
| jase- | hi and good morning. hi have a question. i setup a single 0+1 raid on 4 drives from bios. i boot to live jaunty. fromhere it wont see the raid. i install via package manager dmraid. do sudo dmraid -ay and then walah it shows up now. i can go into Gparted and edit the partion, setup swap, whatever. but if i try to use the install icon, that partitioner will not see the raid. any ideas? | 19:28 |
| Out_Cold | Dr_Willis, i kept mine cuz i stopped working on windows lol | 19:28 |
| teknozwizard | Out_Cold: I've got wine and already installed MUSHclient on it. So far it's pretty good, but if that's the case, I can't have anything interferring with my WoW Experience. I might keep Windoze just for WoW....hrmm.... | 19:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Nooneshere: you might want to reread the install directions for that program. and be sure you spell everything correctly. use TAB to complete the proper filenames also. | 19:29 |
| jase- | the install partitioner shows just the 4 drives seperate | 19:29 |
| Out_Cold | Nooneshere, you have to cd /to/the/directory first then run python yourfile.py | 19:29 |
| Out_Cold | teknozwizard, if you can get it going in wine, you'll be loving it... but linux is not really for hardcore gamers or proprietary apps like AutoCadd | 19:30 |

| dro | Cool, i think i will try it out tonight | 19:32 |
| bj0rn2 | Out_Cold: yeah I guessed that but I haven't found where that's done :) | 19:32 |
| jase- | so i take it im screwed lol | 19:32 |
| Out_Cold | bj0rn2, should be something like ln -sf /usr/bin/firefox /to/your/new/location/firefox | 19:32 |
| marko-_- | Hello, i'm about to install ubuntu 9.10 after a long time of using foresight distribution, is ext4 safe to use? | 19:32 |
| Dr_Willis | marko-_-: ive had no issues with it.. it is the default for 9.10 - so i think thats a yes | 19:32 |
| jase- | id prolly use reiser or ext3 | 19:33 |
| bj0rn2 | Out_Cold: hmm but I'd rather get the association right without having to rely on a soft link | 19:33 |
| marko-_- | i will use reiser | 19:33 |
| marko-_- | of course | 19:33 |
| marko-_- | but for / and /boot | 19:33 |
| MenZa | marko-_-: quite safe. in the future, though - karmic support in #ubuntu+1 | 19:33 |

| mizerydearia | ibuclaw, No, it's native linux installed as host o/s | 19:55 |
| mizerydearia | ibuclaw, VirtualBox is simply one application that causes the glitchy experience, one of many. | 19:55 |

| mizerydearia | Out_Cold, As I said, VirtualBox is only one application causing the glitch. Perhaps it's not the best example, but it's the one I was using yesterday. | 19:56 |
| Rok | and cant find a linux driver | 19:56 |
| Akos_beginner | This command what I cannot understand: "sudo dd if=XP_nine.txt of=/dev/sda1 bs=1 seek=80 skip=80" | 19:56 |
| amine | my Ubuntu seems limited to under 1kbyte/s on download on both eth0 and wlan0 since a couple of days...any idea ? | 19:57 |
| Akos_beginner | That solved the problem somehow.. | 19:57 |
| evon | rok: what kind of video card? | 19:57 |
| Out_Cold | mizerydearia, you can try the 190 driver, but it may not work.. on my nvidia geforce 8800 i had to load a driver near 170 to work properly | 19:57 |
| Rok | anyone ? | 19:57 |
| Vampira | Rok | 19:57 |
| evon | Rok: what video card? | 19:57 |
| mizerydearia | I am guessing it is opengl/3d related perhaps | 19:57 |
| Out_Cold | Rok, ^^ | 19:57 |
| mizerydearia | but not necessary since opening VirtualBox before using any virtual environment caused issue also | 19:58 |

| Akos_beginner | dissident: in this case I would use mrtg. But the solution depends on your skliss and freetime, if mrtg is new for you... | 20:00 |
| Out_Cold | Rok, i think you can edit sizes allowed in the xorg.conf and i am certain you can do in xrandr also | 20:00 |
| Rok | "Out_Cold" your code didnt do anything for me >.< | 20:00 |
| mizerydearia | Out_Cold, It's not a virtual issue... Even playing a game, for example, may cause the glitchiness. | 20:00 |

| giuseppe83 | hi all | 20:16 |
| Out_Cold | i use different repositories so i can't follow you | 20:16 |
| Brandano | blendmaster1024: what error? | 20:16 |
| Rok | yeah | 20:16 |
| giuseppe83 | hello | 20:16 |
| Rok | and its apparently already installed | 20:16 |
| blendmaster1024 | Brandano: i can't paste it, it's on an offline computer | 20:16 |
| Out_Cold | then keep going on with the link | 20:16 |
| blendmaster1024 | "subprocess post-installation script returned error status 1" | 20:17 |
| === giuseppe83 is now known as Porcilla | ||
| Brandano | right | 20:17 |
| Out_Cold | Rok, you also need to add the text posted to your xorg.conf | 20:17 |
| Rok | thats all the link told me to do update the thing i already had installed, but i apparently had latest version lol | 20:17 |
| Brandano | blendmaster1024: try forcing the reinstall | 20:17 |
| Rok | what text ? | 20:17 |
| Out_Cold | the Section "Device" and more | 20:17 |
| Out_Cold | all 3 sections | 20:17 |
| blendmaster1024 | Brandano: ...what kind of command? dpkg or apt-get? | 20:17 |
| alabd | thanks blendmaster1024 | 20:18 |
| Rok | how i find xorg.conf ? | 20:18 |
| alabd | echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/leds/tpacpi::standby/brightnessand will turn off standby led but after system goes standby led turns on ,how to turn off that led for ever ? | 20:18 |
| Brandano | apt-get should have a -force switch, IIRC | 20:18 |
| cjones | how do you make a bootable thumb drive form the command line | 20:18 |
| Brandano | blendmaster1024: btw, what are you trying to get to work? | 20:18 |
| Rok | i dont know what the xorg.conf is to add any text >.< | 20:19 |
| blendmaster1024 | dbus, i tried to install xfce on a chroot | 20:19 |
| Out_Cold | lol | 20:19 |
| blendmaster1024 | and it.. crashes | 20:19 |
| blendmaster1024 | DANG IT, I HAVE 10 MINUTES TO FINISH THIS!!! | 20:19 |
| Out_Cold | Rok, i "believe" it's in /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 20:19 |
| Out_Cold | Rok, open it up with umm... gedit | 20:20 |
| blendmaster1024 | i'm on hardy i think | 20:20 |
| Rok | hang on i need to find it first lol | 20:20 |
| hikenboot | anyone run last choas on 9.04 on wine ..anyone got it working? | 20:20 |

| mizerydearia | I can't find any results for 'hamachi' with synaptic. Is there an application that provides hamachi support? Is there an alternative? | 20:20 |
| Brandano | blendmaster1024: ah, I am not much of an expert of chroots. You have all the various mount bind lines in your fstab? | 20:20 |
| blendmaster1024 | yes | 20:21 |
| Porcilla | exit | 20:21 |
| Out_Cold | Rok, open a terminal and type "gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" | 20:21 |
| Rok | ok | 20:21 |
| Out_Cold | and enter your password | 20:21 |
| blendmaster1024 | Brandano: i know why it failed initially, now what though??? | 20:21 |
| Out_Cold | and paste in the text at the bottom... it may even be completely empty | 20:21 |
| blendmaster1024 | since it's stuck on a feedback loop | 20:21 |
| mathepic | If I install Ubuntu to slave drive and grub to slave, will it cooperate with Vista's MBR? | 20:22 |
| blendmaster1024 | mathepic: nope | 20:22 |
| Brandano | blendmaster1024: in 10 minutes? Not much. | 20:22 |
| Rok | it dnt do anything lol | 20:22 |
| mathepic | Where do I need to install grub then? | 20:22 |
| Out_Cold | mathepic, you should install grub over the MBR | 20:22 |
| mathepic | Does that work correctly with Vista? | 20:22 |
| werfact | some people are saying that it's "illegal"to run xp in vm, what kind of bs is this? | 20:22 |
| Out_Cold | mathepic, yes.. it will notice vista and work accordingly | 20:22 |
| blendmaster1024 | mathepic: yeah it's fine, install to the mbr of the boot drive | 20:22 |
| mathepic | Okay | 20:23 |
| Brandano | blendmaster1024: just remember that while those fstab lines are in place, what you delete in the chroot is deleted outside it too, so be careful with rm | 20:23 |
| blendmaster1024 | werfact: bs. it may be. i'd ignore them | 20:23 |
| mathepic | Thanks, I'm just planning ahead for when I upgrade to Karmic | 20:23 |
| Out_Cold | werfact, you can't run it in a vmware if you don't own a lisence to do so | 20:23 |
| mathepic | I'm on a Wubi install right now and I want to move to a dedicated partition :) | 20:23 |
| werfact | Out_Cold, license for xp or vm? | 20:23 |
| Out_Cold | both :p | 20:23 |
| blendmaster1024 | werfact: if you have a licence to run XP, then you can run XP, last time i checkes | 20:23 |
| Out_Cold | vmware has 'free' licenses | 20:23 |
| blendmaster1024 | s/checkes/checked/ | 20:24 |
| werfact | ok | 20:24 |
| mathepic | Another question - Can Ubuntu do all the partition work or do I need to do some in Vista? | 20:24 |
| mathepic | (Like, shrinking to make room for Ubuntu) | 20:24 |
| Out_Cold | in the words of OJ Simpson... It's only illegal if you get caught ;) | 20:24 |
| mizerydearia | Was hamachi removed from package manager? | 20:24 |
| === jesse is now known as Guest59534 | ||
| Out_Cold | mathepic, ubuntu can do everything | 20:24 |
| mizerydearia | And if so, how come? | 20:24 |
| mathepic | K | 20:24 |
| werfact | well, i guess it's not a good idea to do it in a business environment, | 20:25 |
| mathepic | And will I need to defrag, or will Ubuntu's installer automatically do that before resizing partitions? | 20:25 |
| Brandano | is there any way I can get the 32 bit zlib dev libraries on my 64 bit jaunty? | 20:25 |
| werfact | without a license | 20:25 |
| iceroot | mathepic: ext dont need defrag | 20:25 |
| mathepic | Yes, but vista isn't ext | 20:25 |
| Out_Cold | mathepic, linux doesn't defrag normally | 20:25 |
| Out_Cold | mathepic, so defrag in vista first ;) | 20:26 |
| iceroot | mathepic: and this is not vista-support-channel :) | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | why does route -n | grep default give no output, when route | grep default does?? | 20:26 |
| JPSman | is there a way that I can run KDE and GNOME at the same time? | 20:26 |
| blendmaster1024 | haha!! | 20:26 |
| iceroot | JPSman: yes, with 2 x-servers | 20:26 |
| Slade | What's the latest version of gnome for ubuntu? | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | JPSman: no, you have to choose one DE to log onto, you can run the apps from on DE in the other | 20:26 |
| werfact | JPSman, you can dual boot | 20:26 |
| Out_Cold | JPSman, yea there is some virtual desktop thing that allows different screens on F7, F8, F9 | 20:27 |
| Pici | werfact: Dual booting for a different DE is a bit overkill | 20:27 |
| ActionParsnip | JPSman: s/on/one | 20:27 |
| arussel | how can I check that my mic is working properly ? | 20:27 |
| iceroot | JPSman: my nvidia-driver-config has an option (seperate x-server on other screen) there i can launch kde or gnome | 20:27 |
| iceroot | arussel: speaking into the mic | 20:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Pici: ive got friends who tout it as a pure desktop. I agree with you | 20:27 |

| ActionParsnip | jonday: scroll bar by default is in the right | 20:28 |
| kraito | ubottu, thanks | 20:28 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 20:28 |
| iceroot | jonday: modprobe -l | more | 20:28 |
| Brandano | incidentally, the anmswer to my question might well be 'sudo apt-get install lib32z1-dev' | 20:28 |
| ActionParsnip | jonday: or use muse scroll wheel if yu have one | 20:28 |
| Pici | ipmrdan: It might be better to ask that in #httpd (the official Apache2 support channel) | 20:29 |
| JPSman | Out_Cold: would I just CTRL-ALT-F1 and then run KDE on another login session? | 20:29 |
| arussel | Tr1n_: I've been trying a lot of differet setting, but can't find the stuff that will play it back | 20:29 |
| Brandano | proving that getting an answer back is not as important as asking in the first place | 20:29 |
| Veet | My browsing speeds are very slow while downloading torrents, any idea why? | 20:29 |
| Out_Cold | JPSman, no... it's more complex than that.. let me see if i can find some links | 20:29 |
| blendmaster1024 | yeh, it might be broken sort of, but i think i made it install at least | 20:29 |
| iceroot | Veet: because the torrents are having a big uploaf | 20:29 |
| iceroot | Veet: because the torrents are having a big upload | 20:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Veet: your bandwidth is being hogged by healthy torrents, you need to gate yuor torrent so your web browsing is an ok speed | 20:29 |
| Veet | i didnt have the problem under xp tho. | 20:30 |
| Veet | I can download only 1 torrent and browsing still becomes very slow | 20:30 |

| Andy08 | 9.04 | 20:36 |

| Out_Cold | andy and what is your issue? | 20:37 |
| Slade | ok, next question... is there a linux multi-network chat client (aim, msn, yahoo, etc) that also has webcam support? | 20:37 |
| iceroot | purplefool: system - settings - screen (system - einstellungen - anzeige) | 20:37 |
| Out_Cold | Andy08, where did the install disk come from? is it a factory disk? did you burn at low speeds? | 20:37 |
| jonday | Out_Cold, i dont see any option in the wireless manager. Im using Linux Mint so maybe its a different manager. | 20:37 |
| Out_Cold | jonday, there is a mint channel, i don't know what it is | 20:38 |
| Andy08 | I have tried installing it on 2 seperate computers that are currently running windows, and am unable to boot to the disc, or install inside windows | 20:38 |
| Out_Cold | Andy08, i personally think its a bad disk | 20:38 |

| Slade | !yahoo | 20:41 |
| ubottu | At the moment there are many pidgin users experiencing problems connecting to Yahoo IM, you can try changing your paging server to cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com (port 5050) and see if that helps. | 20:41 |

| [ROCKer] | hello | 20:42 |
| Andy08 | Alright, i'll burn a new disc thanks for the help | 20:42 |
| JPSman | iceroot, ActionParsnip, Thank You :O) | 20:42 |

| Out_Cold | Andy08, make sure you burn SLOW | 20:42 |
| [ROCKer] | i'm thinking of switching from fedora to ubuntu | 20:43 |
| dpic | if i pop in an ubuntu LiveCD, update stuff, and then install ubuntu from the liveCD, will it install with all the updated packages, or no? | 20:43 |
| ActionParsnip | JPSman: there are others and they are available in the repos | 20:43 |

| [ROCKer] | will that stay so if i install ubuntu? | 20:43 |
| Andy08 | option* | 20:43 |
| iceroot | purplefool: :) | 20:43 |
| ActionParsnip | [ROCKer]: install ubuntu then restore from your backups | 20:43 |
| Out_Cold | Andy08, as slow as it goes... 2x or 4x is good | 20:44 |
| ActionParsnip | [ROCKer]: if /home is a seperate partition you are laughing | 20:44 |

| Out_Cold | FrozenFire, history is the last 500 or so commands that you typed in a terminal | 20:45 |
| [ROCKer] | and all that updating there makes me sick sometimes | 20:45 |
| ActionParsnip | [ROCKer]: if /home is on its own partition you can simply delete the system folders that make up your other distro and install to the empty space, your backups will save you if you come unstuck | 20:45 |
| FrozenFire | Out_Cold: Ah, I thought .bash_history would be that | 20:45 |

| hikenboot | how do i insure that 32 bit opengl is running on a ubuntu 9.04 machine getting exception errors in a game running on wine that the wine people suggest is caused by opengl problems | 20:45 |
| Out_Cold | FrozenFire, i think it's both | 20:45 |
| [ROCKer] | so i'm considering moving to ubuntu | 20:45 |

| daniftodi | how make windows booting ? | 20:47 |
| sash_ | daniftodi: karmic is #ubuntu+1 | 20:47 |
| ActionParsnip | [ROCKer]: just make sure your backlups are recent, remove /swap and whatever other partitions fedora has made, then create a /swp and /. You can tell the installer to NOT format the partition and mount it as /home for you | 20:47 |
| [ROCKer] | huh | 20:48 |
| [ROCKer] | you guys actually expect that a newbie will know how to do this? | 20:48 |

| sebsebseb | hi | 20:49 |
| [ROCKer] | it's not essential, but it's important. | 20:49 |
| ActionParsnip | [ROCKer]: we can only guide, the installer is pretty friendly. You have existing data so you have to jump through more hoops. If you had a blank drive or wanted a fresh reinstall you can just click next like a loony | 20:49 |
| Out_Cold | important stuff likes to disappear during installs :p | 20:49 |
| ActionParsnip | [ROCKer]: no backup = data is disposable | 20:50 |

| kilo | Hi everyone! Would anyone happen to be familiar with how to print from a linux box (running 9.04, CUPS, Samba) to a shared printer on a windows box? I can find the folder of the shared printer in the network, but I'm lost as to what to do from there... Any ideas? | 21:27 |
| Radtoo | pelmen: it could surely be hardware problems, I'm no stranger to these :) | 21:27 |
| LinuX2half | why do I have the grub error 17? | 21:27 |
| linuksamiko | Jordan_U: nothing it just get stuck once I hit enter | 21:27 |

| === jmrodri is now known as jmrodri-gone | ||
| jph_ | is there a relatively simple way to have a page look in a folder and create a link to all the files in that folder.... i.e. if you have a folder with 100 images could you have php look in that folder and create a link on the page that is displayed to the user that is the filename of each of those files so that the user can then open or download that file? | 21:28 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: Is this a fresh install? | 21:28 |
| Radtoo | pelmen: I was just not entirely certain you could still install it if it wasnt there. :) | 21:29 |

| linuksamiko | Jordan_U: do you have any idea why memtest works but the rest doesn't? | 21:30 |
| ortsvorsteher | kilo: the printer is on an windows box and the box is configured as print server? | 21:30 |
| zvacet | nightone: I don´t know I just found link :) | 21:31 |
| pelmen | Radtoo: but sometimes these hickups continue, but go away without machine freeze | 21:31 |
| nightone | Okay. Thanks much. | 21:31 |
| jph_ | what dose "ask ## php" mean... | 21:31 |
| Jordan_U | linuksamiko: It might be a problem with the kernel, memtest is it's own "os" so a problem with linux would not affect it | 21:31 |
| kilo | ortsvorsteher, that is correct. the printer is plugged via USB and shared over the network. | 21:31 |
| jrib | jph_: it means this channel is for ubuntu support, but you are asking a php question so you should join the ##php channel on this network and ask your question there | 21:32 |
| zvacet | jph_: to ask on that channel | 21:32 |
| ortsvorsteher | kilo: i use at work an 8.04 and the printers are also at an windows box ... you need a howto use the printer over network? | 21:32 |
| jph_ | thanks | 21:32 |
| Radtoo | pelmen: Hm. Well, its hard to tell, really. I'd test the hardware first, as already explained. Perhaps have a look at temperature sensor readings as well. Any sporadic problems that result in a freeze are hard to diagnose otherwise. | 21:32 |

| chilicuil | hi, I'm running ubuntu 9.04, and for some unknown reason my /etc/init.d/apache2 gets overwrite every 3-5 reboots, it goes to /etc/init.d/apacheX where X is an integer, so it doesnt boot at start up, I've checked the permissions and they both have the same, I've not upgrade the apache daemon, so I've no idea why is this happening, could it be the package manager?, how can I check it?any help is welcome | 21:34 |

| Radtoo | pelmen: The most annoying part about it is that if you can't pinpoint the problem in hardware you might have to systematically replace hardware anyhow since debugging the software is too hard, even if it were a problem it wouldn't be worth it :P | 21:34 |

The onyl ubuntu network manager handled this | 21:51 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: I think that reinstalling grub to the mbr will fix the problem, but more information on what happened would be usefull.

| RegressLess | Jordan_U: that didn't work, neither did what that other person said (change session to gnome in the login screen). Did I mention I ran sudo apt-get remove kde? | 21:53 |
| wamty | what i don't understand is that i've come this far, and the adapter is there.. and I made it work. Its even listed on my router and the dmesg log shows it authenticated. But I can't ping shit.. it's making me tear my hair out | 21:53 |

| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: If you installed Ubuntu over windows you cannot restore windows back, you may be able to get some file that Ubuntu hasn't overwritten but that's it | 21:58 |

| savage- | Jordan_U, I'm running the apt-key command it's just hanging on "gpg: requesting key .... from keyserver.ubuntu.com" -- expected? | 23:20 |

| dragon | What are the chances of breaking stuff while upgrading an ubuntu-server to karmic? | 23:20 |
| Ozzy | WanHouse: correct. I thought it might be Grub as /etc/fstab is excactly the same as a friends whose install works fine | 23:20 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: then how should I install testdisk? | 23:20 |
| blkdg | alphaPnumeric, that link help? | 23:20 |
| jrib | dragon: karmic isn't released yet. Discussion happens in #ubuntu+1 | 23:20 |
| erUSUL | dragon: karmic is beta still ask in #ubuntu+1 | 23:20 |
| joaopinto | StrangeCharm, you find someone from -backports and report them about the problem | 23:20 |
| joaopinto | :) | 23:20 |
| jrib | Purpley1: flightgear is in the repositories, no need to compile | 23:20 |
| doltek | I was wondering if anybody would be kind enough to help a newbe with Ubuntu | 23:20 |
| Jordan_U | savage-: No, it should finish, it might take a while or time out if your internet connection is bad | 23:20 |
| alphaPnumeric | blkdg: I'm looking at it now. IDK quite yet. | 23:20 |
| savage- | Jordan_U, Damn, just errored out with keyserver timed out.. | 23:21 |
| dragon | jrib, erUSUL: thanks, but no one in #ubuntu+1 has the answer. | 23:21 |
| haroelcabo | hi ! I'm having trouble setting up the clock automatically in jaunty. Is there any document that describes what must be done to have the localtime set ? | 23:21 |
| Purpley1 | jrib fgrun isn't | 23:21 |
| shane2peru | !question | doltek | 23:21 |
| ubottu | doltek: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:21 |
| Purpley1 | Fgrun is a GPU starter for flightgear | 23:21 |
| jrib | dragon: ok, but that doesn't mean it's ok to ask here :) | 23:21 |
| arvind_khadri | Hi, can i use tomboy to create sticky notes? | 23:21 |
| blkdg | alphaPnumeric, when you click of file system what do you see? | 23:21 |
| Jordan_U | savage-: Try again, your internet connection may have been down for a second, it happens to me often with DSL | 23:21 |
| TheFuzzball | It's illigal to sell a copy of Ubuntu 9.04 server on eBay right? | 23:21 |
| StrangeCharm | joaopinto, there's got to be an online tracker for that sort of thing | 23:21 |
| erUSUL | dragon: well is a hard question to answer... dist upgrades are supposed to work well but s**t happens and nothing is perfect so YMMV | 23:22 |
| dragon | arvind_khadri: tomboy runs on mono, which is a memory bloat. Consider using something sensible. | 23:22 |
| WanHouse | Ozzy: boot in rescue mode, then run: chroot /mnt/sysimage; (Or to your mounted systems root) then run: /grub-install /dev/hda (Or hdX, where Xis your HD) | 23:22 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: Are you busy....? | 23:22 |
| savage- | Jordan_U, strange, I can ping keyserver.ubuntu.com with no problems yet this keeps timing out on me... | 23:22 |
| jrib | TheFuzzball: no | 23:22 |
| dragon | erUSUL: yeah that's true | 23:22 |
| monthana | Iam trying to debug and fix a dsdt-file, iam using the guide at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1036051, my output after running iasl -tc dsdt.dsl is in http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/291934/ and the file dsdt.dsl is in http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/291936/ , can anyone help me remove these messages? | 23:22 |
| TheFuzzball | jrib: why not? it doens't seem very legitimate... | 23:22 |
| dragon | TheFuzzball: no, it's perfectly alright. | 23:22 |
| doltek | When ever I download a program off the internet I always get an error message saying only one instace can run at a time. What is going on? | 23:22 |
| alphaPnumeric | blkdg: you mean when I click the filesystem in the Ubuntu GUI? I see your standard folders. /mnt, /root, /etc/, /bin, /dev, etc. | 23:22 |
| pilif12p-m | also, how do you untar something? | 23:23 |
| joaopinto | StrangeCharm, there is, launchpad.net, file a bug against the -backports project | 23:23 |
| ovrdrive | anyone explain i get a lot of really slow speeds and tracker errors in ktorrent on my 64bit kubuntu? | 23:23 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: Download the package manually like you did before, while you are doing that get the output from "blkid" and "sudo fdisk -l" and pastebin them | 23:23 |
| jrib | TheFuzzball: amazon sells ubuntu discs too | 23:23 |
| Purpley1 | http://pastebin.com/m5798048e How do i fix this error message | 23:23 |
| === pilif12p-m is now known as pilif12p | ||
| shane2peru | doltek: what program did you download? | 23:23 |
| dragon | TheFuzzball: you might sue them for selling something illegitimate. But as long as it's real Ubuntu, it's legal. | 23:23 |
| TheFuzzball | jrib: but the user can just burn their own... | 23:23 |
| doltek | Limewire and Jave for example | 23:23 |
| jrib | TheFuzzball: not everyone has a burner | 23:23 |
| alphaPnumeric | blkdg: How would I manually add a drive called "Secondary" to fstab? | 23:23 |
| dragon | hold on | 23:24 |
| ovrdrive | frostwire is much better then limewire | 23:24 |
| TheFuzzball | jrib: Isn't there a project to send people Ubuntu discs for free? | 23:24 |
| dragon | Discussing Ubuntu CDs is OFF TOPIC! | 23:24 |
| dragon | !ot | 23:24 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 23:24 |
| instant_t | I sell them too for highest price --:) | 23:24 |
| jrib | TheFuzzball: it takes 4-6 weeks. Some people may want it sooner. | 23:24 |
| WanHouse | Purpley1: yum install libboost or apt-get install boost* or something. | 23:24 |
| jrib | even if these things weren't true, it would still be legal to sell ubuntu | 23:24 |
| infid | ubuntu uses the 'admin' group instead of 'wheel'? | 23:24 |
| Trizicus | i have all required samba ports supposedly open with gufw but when i port scan myself it says i only have 135 and 445 open. I cannot connect to any windows shares with the firewall enabled but I can when it is disabled. | 23:24 |
| jrib | infid: yeah | 23:24 |
| infid | jrib does that mean you cant add a wheel or just that admin is prefered? | 23:25 |
| instant_t | $50 per disk | 23:25 |
| OmniCitadel | can some one please tell me how to revert back to the orginal audo driver that was installed initially? | 23:25 |
| savage- | Jordan_U, I can't use a different server right? | 23:25 |
| Purpley1 | WanHouse, there are a bunch of libboost things | 23:25 |
| Purpley1 | what one | 23:25 |
| jrib | infid: you can do whatever you want :) Just checkout /etc/sudoers | 23:25 |
| Jordan_U | savage-: You can get the key manually, the reason for using the keyserver is so you can verify that the key itself came from a trusted source | 23:26 |
| jrib | infid: (and read « man sudoers » of course) | 23:26 |
| legend2440 | Purpley1: install libboost1.38-dev your libboost-dev may be different version than mine | 23:26 |
| thedude42 | Trizicus, I used the iptables script you had generated on my system, and it worked fine | 23:26 |
| alphaPnumeric | blkdg: I used DOLPHIN insteda of Nautilus and I got in. | 23:26 |
| instant_t | I want to know how to install A package from source from all linux flavors | 23:27 |
| WanHouse | Purpley1: Will your HD die or corrode after having installed those whopping 10 megabytes ? :=) | 23:27 |
| blkdg | good. it clearly is auto mounting for you! | 23:27 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d30c38349 | 23:27 |

| ubottu | instant_t, please see my private message | 23:27 |
| blkdg | nice to here | 23:27 |
| Purpley1 | Wanhouse | 23:27 |
| alphaPnumeric | blkdg: But how come it wasn't in fstab? | 23:27 |
| thedude42 | Trizicus, it's either some configuration of your samba server or your XP clients that is disallowing the communication | 23:27 |
| Purpley1 | Theres over 20 different versions | 23:27 |
| digital_rouge | hello all | 23:27 |
| instant_t | i see your instant message | 23:27 |
| Purpley1 | and In total its about 1 gigabyte | 23:27 |
| alphaPnumeric | blkdg: and why is it that Nautilus won't see the contents? | 23:27 |
| WanHouse | Purpley: Soitenly :) | 23:27 |
| Purpley1 | Rather not waste it | 23:27 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: the command blkid doesn't seem to be recognized | 23:28 |
| Ozzy | WanHouse: Im in recovery mode, but cannot get into any drives (i presume) because they are not mounted. When I run mount -a , mount returns an error saying /etc/fstab doesn't exist. Running chroot /mnt/sysimage doesn't work because "there is no such file or directory" | 23:28 |
| WanHouse | Purpley1: You gotta love Al Bundy right ? | 23:28 |
| instant_t | Thanks for telling me to compile at least I know what to search for jrib | 23:28 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: That's OK, fdisk -l gave me the info I needed | 23:28 |
| jrib | instant_t: I had ubottu send you pretty detailed information | 23:28 |

| quidnunc | !patience | zer0cool | 23:29 |
| ubottu | zer0cool: 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. | 23:29 |

| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: Run testdisk and detect paritions, once it has detected your linux partition write the new partition table | 23:29 |
| ubottu | zer0cool: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

| zer0cool | i tried that | 23:29 |
| WanHouse | Ozzy: Redhat/fedora thing for their ...some filesystem... | 23:29 |
| alphaPnumeric | blkdg: I did that and pastebin'd it to you earlier. fstab doesn't contain that drive in it. | 23:29 |
| instant_t | thank you jrib now i see the instant | 23:29 |

| WanHouse | HELP OZZY!!! | 23:30 |
| Jordan_U | M03BIUS: It's probably a problem with compiz and vnc ( xdamage not being reported ) | 23:30 |
| WanHouse | vgchange -ay .. .then.... | 23:31 |
| Ozzy | WanHouse: vgchange -ay is the first command | 23:31 |
| rob0917 | anyone running the fluendo codecs ? | 23:31 |
| Ozzy | WanHouse: I don't want to run without knowing the second :S | 23:31 |
| Dig | mphill_ you could make a md5 checksum from those file and compare them to the official file's md5 | 23:31 |
| savage- | works! thanks! | 23:31 |
| WanHouse | Ozzy: Youll have to ask fedora or redhat otherwise (Sorry, i dont do that very often) | 23:31 |
| instant_t | doesn't apt- only work for downloading packages to install them? How do I install A package on all linux builds? | 23:31 |

| jrib | instant_t: your question doesn't really make sense. First of all, what do you mean by "package"? Ubuntu uses debs (made for ubuntu). Other distros use different package formats | 23:33 |

| blkdg | again | 23:33 |
| blkdg | i think nautalis is auto mounting it for you | 23:33 |

| blkdg | that's all | 23:33 |
| pilif12p | whats the terminal command to extract something? | 23:34 |

| blkdg | usually tar -xzvf (man tar) pilif12p | 23:34 |

| epaphus | What would be the best way to create a custom livecd but make it load entirely in RAM at boot.. similar to knoppix toram option.. ? is it possible ? | 23:41 |
| legend2440 | !eol | foofish | 23:41 |
| MTecknology | rob0917: I think 9.04 is only until the next version is released | 23:41 |
| ubottu | foofish: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 23:41 |
| dibs | kuitang is this to disable totally or just for an app? | 23:41 |
| sebsebseb | rob0917: MTecknology 9.04 is not an LTS and I think on the desktop it will stop being supported in October 2010 | 23:41 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: I thought it usually takes time for it to write in the table.... | 23:41 |
| Purpley1 | Im sick of this can someone specifaically tell me what to download http://pastebin.com/m5798048e every time i download something with boost in it it dosent work | 23:41 |
| kuitang | dibs: it's totally, all x11 programs | 23:41 |
| rob0917 | ty | 23:41 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: Yes, and If it boots I would run fsck to be sure the file system is fine, but *don't* let it fix anything if it finds errors without checking here first | 23:41 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: okay then I'll reboot to see what happens.... | 23:41 |
| sebsebseb | rob0917: yes 18 months of support on the desktop for non LTS | 23:42 |
| * foofish waves at legend2440 | 23:42 | |
| sebsebseb | rob0917: 3 years on the server I think | 23:42 |
| dibs | how does one go about changing middle click for individual apps? | 23:42 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: In fact, wait | 23:42 |
| MTecknology | rob0917: if you missed the link - this tells you - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 23:42 |
| kuitang | dibs: I know Firefox lets you configure middle mouse behavior, don't know about others | 23:42 |
| zer0cool | Help! my speaker sounds dont work :(. it only works with headphones | 23:42 |
| foofish | dibs: i can't remember :/ | 23:42 |
| MTecknology | !audio | zer0cool | 23:42 |
| ubottu | zer0cool: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 23:43 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: Maybe you should try rebooting the liveCD and mounting the linux partition read only before booting it | 23:43 |
| foofish | dibs: there is a program that'll do that - I used it to bind buttons 4 and 5 on my mouse to forward/back for firefox | 23:43 |
| kuitang | zer0cool: open alsamixer in a terminal and play around with the switches | 23:43 |
| zer0cool | kuitang, i tried | 23:43 |
| pilif12p | So, i want ./Desktop/bugzilla-3.4.2.tar.gz to go to /var/www/ i do sudo tar -xzvf ./Desktop/bugzilla-3.4.2.tar.gz /var/www/ ? | 23:43 |
| dibs | is it possible to put a time delay on middle click, like 1 second to paste anything less do nothing? | 23:43 |
| kuitang | zer0cool: did you try pressing M for the on-off ones? | 23:43 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: so I'm installing the Live CD to the partition table? | 23:44 |
| zer0cool | kuitang, yes i did press the m key | 23:44 |
| martin_ | hey can someone help me with a directory permissions issue | 23:44 |
| Purpley1 | Im sick of this can someone specifaically tell me what to download http://pastebin.com/m5798048e every time i download something with boost in it it dosent work | 23:44 |
| VCoolio | Purpley1: try libboost1.37-dev (you're compiling so you probably need a -dev package) | 23:44 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: what do you mean by mounting the linux partition read only? | 23:44 |
| foofish | dibs: ok, i used imwheel. maybe it'll be useful for you too | 23:44 |
| dsdeiz | hi! how do i choose/select xft fonts? | 23:45 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: You are installing what testdisk has determined to be the correct partition table to the partition table | 23:45 |
| dsdeiz | xfontsel doesn't seem to recognize them? | 23:45 |
| foofish | dibs: but you'll have to read up on it yourself; i can't remember how it works exactly | 23:45 |
| monthana | Iam trying to debug and fix a dsdt-file, iam using the guide at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1036051, my output after running iasl -tc dsdt.dsl is in http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/291934/ and the file dsdt.dsl is in http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/291936/ , can anyone help me remove these messages? | 23:45 |
| martin_ | i did a clean install and i did a chmod to change permissions to access these files, however only two files appeared the Access.Your-Private-Data.Desktop and the README.txt | 23:45 |
| martin_ | neither can be opened | 23:45 |
| dibs | foofish will do thanks. Surely more people have issues with this eh | 23:45 |
| legend2440 | Purpley1: you installed libboost-dev? | 23:45 |
| zer0cool | Help! my speaker sounds dont work :(. it only works with headphones | 23:46 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: could you rephrase that. | 23:46 |
| Purpley1 | well no im installing libboost1.37-dev right now | 23:46 |
| legend2440 | Purpley1: that should work | 23:46 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: I don't get what you just said.... | 23:46 |
| Slade | so, what's the easiest way to upgrade from 8.04 to 9? | 23:47 |
| foofish | !upgrade | 23:47 |

| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 23:47 |
| Purpley1 | kk | 23:47 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: You said that I need to reboot and then use the live cd to read the partition table....is that correct? | 23:47 |
| blkdg | thanks folks | 23:47 |

| Chun1 | Created an ad-hoc wireless network, but I can't seem to connect to it -- any tips? Network-manager tries for a while then just gives up | 23:48 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: Reboot then run fsck from the liveCD, don't try to boot the actual install unless the fsck reports that the file system is clean | 23:48 |
| kuitang | Anyone know how to type accents with dead keys in wine program? | 23:48 |
| ryguy | Is there a way to make a bootable windows xp usb drive from within linux from an xp iso? | 23:49 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: okay then I'll be back. | 23:49 |
| Ozzy | WanHouse: The fedora folks told me to go away. haha. | 23:49 |
| Slade | I'd really like to see what the new gnome desktop looks like :) | 23:50 |
| foofish | ryguy: virtualbox? other than that, i dunno | 23:50 |
| dsdeiz | hi! how do i choose/select xft fonts? | 23:50 |
| dsdeiz | xfontsel doesn't seem to recognize them? | 23:50 |
| ryguy | foofish: virtualbox? whats that | 23:51 |
| Ozzy | Im gonna ask again, I have installed ubuntu 9.10, and the partitioning of my drive is fine (2 windows formatted to nfts , 1 ext4 and one linux swap) however when I reboot I get an error message saying it cant find the root drive. When I boot into recovery mode, I cannot mount any drives because apparently "/ect/fstab does not | 23:51 |
| ryguy | foofish: can it run games? | 23:51 |
| MTecknology | !vbox | ryguy | 23:51 |
| ubottu | ryguy: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 23:51 |
| foofish | ryguy: it lets you run xp in virtual machine under linux | 23:51 |
| abderrahim | in ubuntu | 23:51 |
| foofish | ryguy: probably. unaccelerated, though | 23:51 |
| ryguy | all I need xp for is games | 23:51 |
| ryguy | ill ask around #vbox | 23:51 |
| foofish | ryguy: at least, i guess it'd be unaccelerated | 23:51 |
| MTecknology | Ozzy: is your boot device on ext4? | 23:51 |
| ryguy | thanks guys | 23:51 |
| MikeChelen | ryguy: try wine first | 23:52 |
| Ozzy | MTecknology: yes | 23:52 |
| WanHouse | Ozzy: They are probably coders then. They can have a tendency to get a bit grumpy at times. They have to stuggle with making everything really good. | 23:52 |
| kuitang | ryguy: technically vbox has accelerated 3d, but there are still compatability problems | 23:52 |
| MTecknology | Ozzy: that's why - only grub2 will accept that and grub2 isn't available in 9.04 | 23:52 |
| koshari | ryguy VMs arnt ideal for intensive 3d gaming | 23:53 |
| Ozzy | MTecknology: Grub 2 is installed in 9.10 by default i thought | 23:53 |
| Ozzy | MTecknology: im using the 9.10 beta | 23:53 |
| MTecknology | Ozzy: if you're using 9.10 - then you should be asking for support in #ubuntu+1 | 23:53 |
| Ozzy | MTecknology: Thanks. | 23:53 |
| WanHouse | Ozzy: I have not coded much for a while now. tell me if you like this site... www.gadmintools.org | 23:53 |
| MTecknology | Ozzy: grub2 is only available on fresh installs in 9.10 | 23:53 |
| martin_ | can someone help, im facing an issue, whenever i type $ecrypfts-mount-private it says command not found | 23:54 |
| MTecknology | Ozzy: if you upgrade, you still have grub legacy | 23:54 |
| WanHouse | Ozzy: So many improvements flying around in my head i need to actualize them soon or ill go even more maad :=) | 23:54 |
| Ozzy | <MTecknology: I know, it was a fresh nistall from a live CD | 23:54 |
| Ozzy | WanHouse: Haha | 23:54 |
| WanHouse | ;) | 23:55 |
| Ozzy | WanHouse: Ill check out the site | 23:55 |
| thedude42 | martin: is that command part of something you installed? | 23:55 |

| WanHouse | Ozzy: Itll cover what everyone could ever want | 23:56 |
| Ozzy | WanHouse: We never talked about an rsync thing? | 23:56 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: okay whats the command for running fsck? | 23:56 |
| epaphus | What would be the best way to create a custom livecd but make it load entirely in RAM at boot.. similar to knoppix toram option.. ? is it possible ? | 23:57 |
| maco | LinuX2half: you just said it | 23:57 |
| WanHouse | Ozzy: Magnus coded the first part and the only one that had a problem was Federico of IBM-AIX (He fixed his problem though so now we are helping) | 23:57 |
| LinuX2half | heres the response from the terminal,fsck 1.41.3 (12-Oct-2008) | 23:57 |
| thedude42 | epaphus, that is what they do, live CD's don't touch your disk unless you tell them to | 23:57 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: it seemed that I need to install the program as well | 23:58 |
| thedude42 | epaphus, do you mean copy the contents of the liveCD to ram, then run the disk off RAM? | 23:58 |
| WanHouse | Ozzy: If its not "The way" to backup in 2 years time ill bite off one of my ears :=) | 23:58 |
| epaphus | thedude42, well i think that they read all their content from the CD.. as you are needing it.... i want it to load the entire 700mb CD into RAM and read from ram | 23:58 |
| epaphus | so that i can actually take the cd out and continue to use the os | 23:58 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: what do you think? | 23:58 |
| epaphus | thedude42, exactly | 23:58 |
| Jordan_U | LinuX2half: fsck should be on the liveCD | 23:58 |
| thedude42 | epaphus, gotcha.... you could do that with some ramFS-fu i'm sure | 23:59 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: yeah, it seemed likely but I don't know where to run it from | 23:59 |
| Ozzy | WanHouse: I have no idea what you are on about but sure. Actuallate some of those ideas ;) | 23:59 |
| LinuX2half | Jordan_U: Also by the way I'm using ubuntu 8.10 live Cd | 23:59 |
