| snellcode | cheaper than i7 | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| skylar_ | ZykoticK9: I have no idea how to use gksudo ect | 00:00 |
| snellcode | amd is even cheaper still | 00:00 |
| Kuifje111 | I bought myself a dual core 3GHz for ~140 euros a few days ago. | 00:00 |
| snellcode | amd works great with linux | 00:00 |
| dpanda | Kuifje111: yes after so many months [of coursing ubuntu :)] i finally realized it was probably the hardware manufacturer's fault to make it so windows specific | 00:00 |
| snellcode | i havent had any major issues, pretty smooth so far really | 00:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | skylar_, in a terminal type "gksudo nvidia-setting" then make your config changes, then "Save Current Configuration" button. | 00:01 |
| dpanda | snellcode: and significantly better [faster in layman's words] then a core 2 duo? | 00:01 |
| datz | Hi, in a past installation, I had a cpu freq scaling app on my top panel that would allow me to set the freq is scaling was possible, I can't find it now...Does anyone know of one? | 00:01 |
| Kuifje111 | if I were to be a new desktop PC, I guess i'd go for an Intel i5 core. | 00:01 |
| Kuifje111 | buy* | 00:01 |
| snellcode | dpanda: its a 4 core, so yes | 00:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | skylar_, it should ask your password before starting nvidia-settings | 00:01 |
| dpanda | intel i5 hmm | 00:01 |
| skylar_ | Curiosity why "gksudo" not just sudo | 00:01 |
| ne0futur | hi all. does ubuntu have a unified graphic tool like drakconf or yast to configure network, grub . . . ? I only found ubuntu-manager on http://ubuntu-manager.tavux.info and wonder why it needs to add a line in sources.list | 00:02 |
| Kuifje111 | the i5 CPUs are relatively cheap. | 00:02 |
| snellcode | the lga 1156 chipset is a good option for intel | 00:02 |
| Halitech | !gksudo | skylar_ | 00:02 |
| ubottu | skylar_: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 00:02 |
| skylar_ | I'hmm | 00:02 |
| skylar_ | hmm * | 00:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | skyla, gksudo for gui, sudo for cli -- something to do with profiles or some such thing. i've never personally had a problem using sudo, but i hear it can lead to badness sometimes... | 00:02 |
| gcl_ | Argh, my sound card isn't appearing in the list of hardware devices in the sound preferences window. It was working perfectly in the live cd but after installing it isn't being detected anymore. Any ideas/ I've tried compiling 1.0.21 from source but to no avail. | 00:02 |
| dpanda | i am tempted for a i5 then :) how much ram will be good ? 4 gb? | 00:02 |
| gcl_ | this is the karmic beta btw | 00:02 |
| snellcode | dpanda: i5 cpu and 1156 board is the 'mainstream' 4 core system | 00:03 |
| trism | !9.10 | gcl_ | 00:03 |
| ubottu | gcl_: 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 | 00:03 |
| Th_Doctor | gcl_: Have you done the first update yet? | 00:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | gcl_, ask the same question in #ubuntu+1 as suggested above :) | 00:03 |
| gcl_ | Th_Doctor: that was the first thing I tried | 00:03 |
| dpanda | snellcode: fiding the right motherboard might be a problem in my city though :) | 00:03 |
| skylar_ | well well see if that works next time i restart :) | 00:04 |
| snellcode | i bought most of it on amazon, the rest at microcenter | 00:04 |
| Th_Doctor | gcl_: Have you looked into the mixer? | 00:04 |

| snellcode | microcenter had the cheapest i5 by $40 | 00:04 |

| Satzo | i never said anything about rebooting | 01:12 |
| Legendre | speedxxxcore: it's part of a larger package.. | 01:13 |
| speedxxxcore | Legendre: know the name of it? | 01:13 |
| n8tuser | Satzo-> thats what am trying to get clarification, what does the ctrl+alt+del unlocks or really sends out the reboot command? | 01:13 |
| Legendre | speedxxxcore: don't recall the name, though =) | 01:13 |
| ibrahim76 | satzo | 01:13 |
| Legendre | I did just install it recently, tho | 01:13 |
| ibrahim76 | Satzo, can I ask you ? | 01:13 |
| prince_jammys | Satzo: how are you connecting to the windows box? | 01:13 |
| Satzo | n8tuser, no it just unlocks the win32 lock screen | 01:13 |
| DigitalKiwi | speedxxxcore: mesa provides it afaik | 01:13 |
| Satzo | prince_jammys, via terminal server client(via VNC) | 01:14 |
| n8tuser | Satzo-> could it be another than that key combo perhaps? look at the commands for windows. there may be an equivalent.. | 01:14 |
| Legendre | speedxxxcore: if you try to run it from a terminal, do you get a complaint - with info on the package you need? I think this is how I found it.. | 01:14 |
| prince_jammys | Satzo: i'm seeing in the forums that F8 can be used to send ctrl-alt-del. (supposedly you get a menu) | 01:14 |
| Satzo | n8tuser, ive looked and looked.. thats why i am in here | 01:14 |
| Satzo | prince_jammys, ill try it | 01:14 |
| speedxxxcore | DigitalKiwi: Legendre: So sudo apt-get install mesa? | 01:14 |
| n8tuser | Satzo-> dont forget, we are not windows support | 01:15 |
| Satzo | n8tuser, i realize | 01:15 |
| Legendre | speedxxxcore: can't confirm that.. again, try to run glxgears from a console, see if you get any info.. | 01:15 |
| Satzo | prince_jammys, that works.. thanks alot | 01:15 |
| Satzo | no idea how you found that :P | 01:15 |

| n8tuser | Guest168-> only from a dchp server | 01:16 |
| Guest168 | so is that my router or modem? | 01:17 |
| n8tuser | if your router have dhcp server, then it will, if your modem does, then it will | 01:17 |
| Satzo | prince_jammys and jrib: thats the thing about googling,... you never really know how to "word" your symptoms :) | 01:17 |
| n8tuser | Guest168-> perhaps read the manual pages of your router and modem, it may tell you | 01:17 |
| Guest168 | just i want to setup serveral webservers, using diffrent routers, but 1 modem and wanted to no will they have thee own static ip? | 01:17 |

| PCTeacher012 | n8tuser: There we go, but it doesnt tell ,e anything? Is that the command to repair it? | 01:23 |
| Halitech | MMark, look on the bottom of the router, it should have an IP address listed for setting it up, see if that address loads in a web browser | 01:23 |
| n8tuser | MMark-> thats not good to have two dhcpserver serving..in same subnet | 01:23 |
| Arsin | Has anyone experienced the probelm where your keyboard gets disabled randomly and then just presses the last key you touched and it repeates making you have to restart | 01:23 |
| bastidrazor | MMark: if your ip is 192.168.something then more than likely your router. your modem would give you the same internal ip as external | 01:23 |
| Kuifje111 | just check your default gateway. | 01:23 |
| n8tuser | PCTeacher012-> the results dont tell you if its ext3 or ext4 ? | 01:23 |

| n8tuser | PCTeacher012-> then perhaps the type table will tell, code 83 for old ext3, dont know the code for ext4 | 01:25 |
| MMark | but, im on about my web ip not the server ip, for example this web ip is 82.32.204.62, if i get a switch, and plug in to wireless routers, and then plug 1 machine to one, and another to the other would my ips both be diffrent? | 01:25 |

| PCTeacher012 | n8tuser: Yea :p So what is the command to repair a filesystem? And n8tuser it must be wrong. It gives me: ID 83. But i KNOW mine is ext4 | 01:25 |
| PCTeacher012 | i formatted it that way | 01:25 |
| pilif12p | What the command to search the apt thingy | 01:25 |
| obiwan_ | apt-cache search | 01:26 |
| bastidrazor | MMark: externally no, internal yes, if the router is handing out ip's for your LAN | 01:26 |
| n8tuser | MMark-> better yet if you can draw a layout of what you got, then its easier to discuss.. a drawing of boxes and lines with ip address helps a lot in discussions | 01:26 |
| MMark | ok | 01:26 |
| Halitech | PCTeacher012, ID 83 just means its a linux partition, not the type of format its in | 01:26 |

| pilif12p | I'm just here that much | 01:34 |
| Halitech | PCTeacher012, exactly, the code just signifies it is a linux block, has nothing to do with how its formated | 01:34 |
| kacksucker | ah ok | 01:34 |
| Crewsr3 | jrib, what user name do I use when connecting | 01:34 |
| kacksucker | sry -_- | 01:34 |
| PCTeacher012 | jrib: Then it doesnt use pidgin i imagine (live cd lol) | 01:34 |

| MMark | so if each server wouldnt have an external ip, how do datacenters get diffrent ip address's for each server? | 01:35 |
| Halitech | korcan, why not use evince or one of the native apps? | 01:35 |
| bastidrazor | MMark: they pay the ISP for multiple ip's | 01:36 |
| snellcode | MMark: they have different ips | 01:36 |
| Halitech | MMark, they have seperate IPs for each server farm | 01:36 |
| korcan | Halitech, I am having issues with opening PDF's from firefox... | 01:36 |

| Halitech | korcan, so save them first and then open them | 01:37 |
| jrib | kacksucker: all we need is love, remember | 01:37 |
| Satzo | yeah call your isp | 01:37 |
| jrib | MMark: "know", not "no" | 01:38 |
| kacksucker | i love only my fat ass | 01:38 |
| snellcode | MMark: port 80 for an ip address can only point to one server on your network, but then what you do internal in your network is anything you want | 01:38 |
| Satzo | jrib love and kleenex. | 01:38 |
| jrib | kacksucker: do you have an ubuntu-related support question? | 01:38 |
| kacksucker | yes | 01:38 |
| MMark | yes, this is true | 01:38 |
| kacksucker | hold on | 01:38 |
| MMark | but if i ring my isp and ask if i can get more ips what would they say | 01:39 |
| MMark | ? | 01:39 |
| korcan | Halitech, that is the problem... we use all web apps here and are paperless, pdf's are our lifeline, My users open 100's of pdf's per day | 01:39 |

| jrib | mmoo9154: yes | 01:39 |
| snellcode | MMark: so the first server can be a kind of application router to route to other servers | 01:39 |

| mmoo9154 | Can connect to the headless server through ssh, but can't see the net from inside the box. | 01:40 |
| korcan | Halitech, ^^ | 01:40 |
| korcan | Halitech, firefox, however evince pukes on some pdf's can't figure out why | 01:40 |
| Satzo | korcan, ive seen some .pdf files act strangely myself. are these .pdfs inhouse made or on the public internet? | 01:40 |
| snellcode | MMark: but this is why i asked about the datacenter. because you can also get space in a DC, and they have tons of ips for you if you want them | 01:40 |
| Halitech | korcan, could be the version of acrobat they were created in, something inside the file | 01:40 |
| kacksucker | can i have now owner PLZ? | 01:41 |
| jrib | kacksucker: please keep your discussien here related to ubuntu support. Either by asking an on-topic question or answering one. And no, you cannot change the topic | 01:41 |

| kacksucker | or shit | 01:41 |
| kacksucker | ok | 01:41 |
| pilif12p | jrib: Are you a channel owner or something? | 01:41 |
| kacksucker | then | 01:41 |
| MMark | not 100% sure, i no that i need to link each server to a seperate router and need a dedicated ip for each server, same sorta thing as a datacenter, but its only to run 8 servers from | 01:41 |
| FloodBot3 | kacksucker: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:41 |

| Satzo | is it possible(and easy) to have gnome with one userspace and kde with another userspace? If so how do i go about that? | 02:29 |
| durt | Guest37471, also you cannot use any Ubuntu or Canonical (obviously) trademarks. | 02:30 |
| thedude42 | Satzo, what do you mean by 'userspace', like, one person can log in with gnome, another logs in with KDE? | 02:30 |
| DaZ | Satzo: you can't | 02:30 |
| DaZ | hm | 02:30 |
| Satzo | thedude42, exactly. I would consider one userspace but i am chicken i will screw it up :/ | 02:30 |
| Guest37471 | thedude42, is there a contact for the legal team that I could get in touch with to understand this information? the ubuntu trademark terms states that the ubuntu trademark logo/text form can be used as long as "there is no commercial intent behind the use." | 02:30 |
| Pricey | Guest37471: the trademark policy has a link on it | 02:30 |
| Satzo | DaZ, :( | 02:30 |
| _JacK_ | lstarnes: even no usb printer plugged in, does it generate the /dev/lp0 in advance ? | 02:30 |
| Pricey | Guest37471: *an email on it | 02:30 |

| Satzo | durt, ok | 02:31 |
| DaZ | Satzo: then you can :f | 02:31 |
| thedude42 | Satzo, at the login, whether you choose to use kdm or gdm, users can choose their window manager | 02:31 |
| lstarnes | _JacK_: I don't think /dev nodes are usually created for (psuedo)devices that don't exist | 02:31 |
| Guest37471 | durt, is using the ubuntu name considered trademark use? | 02:31 |
| Satzo | thedude42, so window managers can be chosen upon login for any account???? | 02:31 |
| Guest37471 | tonyyarusso, thank you. | 02:31 |
| _JacK_ | lstarnes: here what is /dev/lp0 used for without usb printer plugged in? | 02:31 |
| DaZ | Satzo: yes :f | 02:31 |
| thedude42 | Satzo, that is correct, provided you have the window manager installed | 02:31 |
| Satzo | nice.. | 02:32 |
| lstarnes | _JacK_: do you have a /dev/lp0 without any printers attached? | 02:32 |
| _JacK_ | lstarnes: yes, no any printer attached | 02:32 |
| tonyyarusso | Guest37471: I suspect you'll be okay, but this channel isn't nearly qualified to give you an answer, so you might as well just go straight to the source. | 02:32 |
| Satzo | so let me get this straight, i would apt-get install whatever-the-app-name-is and the next time i login i am offered an alt window manager? | 02:32 |
| thiebaude | Satzo, yes | 02:32 |
| Pricey | Satzo: not quite | 02:32 |
| Pricey | Satzo: you choose it (There's an options menu or something) and hten you log in. | 02:33 |
| Satzo | ok | 02:33 |
| thedude42 | Satzo, you should have the option to select things now, there should be an 'options' button at your login screen | 02:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | lstarnes, i don't have a /dev/lp0 - no printer attached (never set on up mind you) -- I think you'll find /dev/lp0 will be present whenever you have a printer installed, for backwards compatibility with legacy apps... | 02:33 |
| Guest37471 | somehow i missed the link on the trademark page. thank you all. | 02:33 |

| trism | _JacK_: it isn't really a big deal, it probably configures it by default, because I have /dev/lp0 and I've never had a printer attached | 02:42 |

| infid | Magnesium: so i should use cifs instead of smb in ubuntu 9.04/vista | 02:53 |
| hunt577 | !sound | 02:53 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 02:53 |
| _JacK_ | lstarnes: if so, udev and hal will make the node only when printer available (attached), i guess it uses mknod in some script | 02:54 |
| _ubuntu_ | works! | 02:54 |
| _ubuntu_ | :D | 02:54 |
| _ubuntu_ | any good reason as to why RAlt+Print+K screws the ttys up? | 02:54 |
| lstarnes | _JacK_: or it was created by udev before and wasn't removed | 02:54 |
| lstarnes | _JacK_: I'm not sure if udev cleans things up automatically though | 02:55 |
| Magnesium | infid: I believe that smb is "deprecated," meaning you should always use cifs, if it works. It should be backwards compatible | 02:55 |
| lstarnes | _ubuntu_: it's likely a video driver issue | 02:55 |
| _ubuntu_ | hmm | 02:55 |
| _ubuntu_ | can I change the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination? | 02:55 |
| lstarnes | _ubuntu_: I had a similar issue up until I switched from the preinstalled drivers to newer drivers | 02:55 |

| ubottu | hunt577: 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).

| alphert | I have a macbook 5,5 here with ubuntu installed and running, but with a number of issues | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | alphert: #ubuntu-ppc | 03:10 |
| scunizi | alphert: this is it.. hopefully there'll be someone here that's done the same as you | 03:10 |
| alphert | thanks IdleOne | 03:10 |
| alphert | scunizi: then I'll ask here too | 03:10 |
| Hillshum | Arsin: Hmm. That's all I can think of then | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | alphert: but you might have more luck here | 03:10 |
| thedude42 | hunt577, you could try installing ubuntu under wubi, which will leave your windows installation in place | 03:10 |
| scunizi | alphert: is it intel based or ppc | 03:10 |
| hunt577 | thedude42- I don't want to install it and still have the same audio issues. I mean the lag is so bad on the audio that it really hurts the ears | 03:10 |
| CLIdiot | which version of ubuntu do I need to go back to if all I want or need is full-screen flash? | 03:10 |
| hunt577 | thedude42- how do I do that? | 03:11 |
| alphert | Arsin: the LCD display cannot be adjusted: the package pommed that controls the mac keys refuses to run: "unknown machine macbookpro 5,5" | 03:11 |
| sebsebseb | hunt577: Wubi can go bad on people | 03:11 |
| pepperjack | CLIdiot: you can change your flash version without changing your ubuntu install | 03:11 |
| alphert | scunizi: intel based, new macbookpro | 03:11 |
| infid | doesnt smbfs come installed by default in jaunty? | 03:11 |
| alphert | I got sound working with a custom install of alsa-driver-1.0.21, but that's about it | 03:11 |
| Magnesium | infid: Sorry, try man mount.cifs | 03:12 |
| thedude42 | hunt577, that's why I said to use wubi... it doesn't alter your windows file system at all and if the audio issue persists you can just kill ubuntu | 03:12 |
| Magnesium | infid: If that's not there you need to install a package | 03:12 |
| alphert | the touchpad cannot click and drag, since the button is integrated into the pad itself. And the LCD brightness is annoying, particularly at night. | 03:12 |
| CLIdiot | pepperjack: if I go back to an earlier flash version will it work? I heard it wasn't a flash problem, but how it interacted with something else | 03:12 |
| infid | Magnesium: i just installed smbfs and now everything works | 03:12 |
| CLIdiot | all I know is it used to work, and I'd love to go back to having it work again | 03:12 |
| sebsebseb | thedude42: except sometimes it seems that people remove wubi, and it doesn't sort out the boot loaders for them, and they end up not being able to boot up Windows | 03:12 |
| Magnesium | infid: Cool | 03:12 |
| Magnesium | infid: I think I had to do that too, come to think of it | 03:13 |

| Billiard | mranderson: when you output to a file it will be created | 03:31 |
| bennettj1087 | mranderson: ah, to dump output use a redirect operator. either > or >> | 03:31 |

| mranderson | ahh, excellent | 03:32 |
| bennettj1087 | mranderson: >> will append the output to a file (not overwriting what was there already) | 03:32 |

| mb_again_ | cool pondus is very simple weight grapher and record. tidy for what it does. But not excercise | 03:33 |
| infid | if i perm mount a windows share to /mnt/windows and my linux laptop loses the internet (being out of my local wifi zone) will i still have access to /mnt/windows or will it unmount? | 03:33 |
| matelot | Billiard, so I just enter "sudo apt-cache show name-of-software" ? | 03:33 |
| Random832 | so... the clock applet in gnome supposedly can show temperature and weather, but i can't get it to work or find a place to set what location the weather goes in the panel for (weather shows up fine in the actual locations list) | 03:33 |
| Billiard | matelot you dont need sudo | 03:33 |
| Arsin | Has anyone used a IDE to SATA adapter with Ubuntu on that drive? | 03:34 |
| matelot | Billiard just "apt-cache show name-of-software" then ? | 03:34 |
| bennettj1087 | infid: you will not have access to the windows share. attempting to ls the directory will probably hang really bad. you'd most likely need to use "umount -l" to unmount it. | 03:34 |
| Billiard | matelot: yes | 03:34 |
| matelot | ok, let me try | 03:34 |
| bennettj1087 | infid: it won't unmount automatically I don't think. | 03:34 |

| bennettj1087 | infid: I'm not aware of any more elegant solutions than that. you can actually store the local copy at /mnt/windows also. when you mount your windows share it will just shadow what's actually located in that directory (without actually deleting the data). you'll probably have to try putting a file in /mnt/windows (without your share mounted), then mount your share and then unmount it and notice your file still there to | 03:38 |
| bennettj1087 | see what I'm trying to say. | 03:38 |
| mb_again_ | arsin: sorry missed your message. The keyboard swap changed the situation for the better it sounds like. could be the hardware, despite your reservations. Could be the driver for the keyboard is different in some minor way and you ticlled a bug with your hardware change on the drives. maybe the connector was just loose. Keep an eye on things as hardware failures have a tendency to have a random component. | 03:38 |

| Magnesium_ | Is there anyone using the open source radeon driver that could run glxinfo | grep vendor for me? | 03:47 |
| Arsin | kisuke: Hmm........... It worked in the morning, then I tried installing an IDE to SATA adapter and then it screwed up, but putting the adapter was pure hardware, no software involved | 03:48 |
| Sinuvoid | Hey, I'm running Xubuntu on an old laptop and I cannot get to the Networking Configuration | 03:49 |
| Magnesium_ | No one out there? | 03:49 |
| Sinuvoid | How do I get there? | 03:49 |
| bennettj1087 | deusr: it appears as though they have some issues in their code, you may want to look into submitting a support request. Unless you want to get your hands dirty in some C | 03:49 |
| Billiard | cellofellow: idk should work fine | 03:49 |
| cellofellow | :/ | 03:49 |
| coz_ | Magnesium_, sorry I dont use ati so I cant help with this one | 03:49 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> use vim to edit manually, /etc/network/interfaces file | 03:49 |
| Sinuvoid | Gah noes | 03:49 |
| dan_ | my screen goes blank when i boot into ubuntu. anyone know how to configure it to show video? | 03:49 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, ok | 03:49 |
| Arsin | dan_: | 03:50 |
| n8tuser | dan_-> did it ever work using he livecd ? | 03:50 |
| Magnesium_ | coz_: Okay, thanks for listening, though! Any one else? | 03:50 |
| deusr | bennettj1087, I'm trying to install this webcam: Bus 002 Device 003: ID 17a1:0128 | 03:50 |
| dan_ | when i chose the safe video mode option it worked | 03:50 |
| coz_ | Magnesium_, is this an issue because the command is not bringing up a vendor? | 03:50 |
| dan_ | i used the alternate cd to install it, because i have a RAID. | 03:51 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, this is not what I want lol | 03:51 |
| papul | how do i add compiz? | 03:51 |
| papul | the eye candy | 03:51 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, What I want is to be able to enable my wlan0 | 03:51 |
| coz_ | papul, well it should already be installed | 03:52 |
| coz_ | papul, and once the video driver is installed properly it should then boot with compiz running | 03:52 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> not what you want? thats where the configs can be set and configured, enabling is via ifconfig/iwconfig | 03:52 |
| papul | its something named compiz settings manager. i dont remember its name | 03:52 |
| coz_ | papul, you could sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager | 03:52 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, like this: http://www.debianadmin.com/ubuntu-networking-for-basic-and-advanced-users.html | 03:52 |
| Magnesium_ | coz_: Well, the problem is that it's showing vendor to be SGI Tungsten Graphics. I could have swarn that when I first set it up it wasn't that way. But, I'm still getting as good of performance as ever, and glxinfo says Direct Rendering is enabled, but it also says the renderer is Mesa...so I'm really confused ;) | 03:52 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, 2nd pic down | 03:52 |
| coz_ | papul, then open that in terminal with just ccsm | 03:52 |
| dan_ | i had this problem when i used fedora, and i just changed the video driver in xorg.conf. there is no driver listed, though. | 03:52 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> do not make me read stuff, tell me what the problem is | 03:53 |
| pqrstuv | What's dvd playback? Why do we need libdvdcss? | 03:53 |
| Arsin | papul: System>Preferences>CompizConfig Settings Manager | 03:53 |
| coz_ | Magnesium_, I would go with that since that does sound like a chipset manufacturer | 03:53 |
| pqrstuv | geirha: What's dvd playback? Why do we need libdvdcss? | 03:53 |
| pqrstuv | prince_jammys: What's dvd playback? Why do we need libdvdcss? | 03:53 |
| bennettj1087 | deusr: I just downloaded and tried to compile that driver and had the same experience you did. There are a ton of errors in that code. | 03:53 |
| n8tuser | dan_-> then copy the driver used when you were using fedora | 03:53 |
| pqrstuv | What does it mean by dvd playback? | 03:53 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, hello? | 03:54 |
| n8tuser | dan_-> or at least get the info from it | 03:54 |
| Angel-SL | Hey guys | 03:54 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> yes? | 03:54 |
| Angel-SL | I have a VPS who's time is set to 10:54AM, GMT+8 | 03:54 |
| Sinuvoid | <Sinuvoid> n8tuser, like this: http://www.debianadmin.com/ubuntu-networking-for-basic-and-advanced-users.html | 03:54 |
| Angel-SL | however the timezone is set to UTC | 03:54 |
| Sinuvoid | <Sinuvoid> n8tuser, 2nd pic down | 03:54 |
| Magnesium_ | coz_: Well, I thought SGI is what came up when you were using mesa...could be wrong though. That's why I was hoping someone here could run that for me...no one here? Anyone? | 03:54 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> do not make me read stuff, tell me what the problem is | 03:54 |
| deusr | bennettj1087, :/ | 03:54 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser -> Nono,you are not reading anything | 03:54 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, just look at the 2nd picture | 03:55 |
| coz_ | Magnesium_, understood | 03:55 |
| bennettj1087 | deusr: sorry I can't help more. | 03:55 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> just tell me what the problem is, and lets see what we can do | 03:55 |
| Angel-SL | I have a VPS who's time is set to 10:54AM. However, it thinks the timezone is UTC, while it should be GMT+8. If I change it to GMT+8, it adds eight more hours to the clock. How do I change the timezone without changing the clock? | 03:55 |
| `3mend0 | re all | 03:55 |
| Angel-SL | re what? | 03:55 |
| deusr | bennettj1087, ;) thanks! | 03:55 |
| kitche | Angel-SL: change the timezone as normal and run ntpdate or ntpd | 03:56 |
| bennettj1087 | Angel-SL: kitche beat me to it. :) | 03:56 |
| Angel-SL | It's on a VPS | 03:56 |
| Angel-SL | which means I can't change the time | 03:56 |
| Angel-SL | :| | 03:56 |
| kisuke | how do i get ubuntu to recognize the i ve turned my wireless adapter onit worked before reboot and now will not. | 03:56 |
| Angel-SL | basically, 21 Oct 10:57:25 ntpdate[30144]: step-systime: Operation not permitted | 03:56 |
| n8tuser | kisuke-> does dmesg says it recognizes your wifi card? | 03:57 |
| kitche | Angel-SL: so pretty much it's not a root VPS but a chrooted one it seems | 03:57 |
| Random832 | @Angel-SL, well so what, the VPS thinks the hardware clock it sees is on UTC when it's on local time? | 03:57 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, how do I enable my Wireless card | 03:57 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, iwconfig picks it up | 03:57 |
| Random832 | maybe there's a configuration there that can fix it | 03:57 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, so now what | 03:57 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> try sudo ifdown wlan0; ifup wlan0 | 03:58 |
| Magnesium | I hate to keep bugging the channel, but is there anyone using the open source radeon driver that could do me a favor and run glxinfo | grep vendor? | 03:58 |
| Angel-SL | Random832: Not too sure. | 03:58 |
| === Alex`- is now known as Bhavic | ||
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, it says "interface wlan0 not configured" | 03:59 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, when i put in "sudo ifdown wlan0" | 03:59 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> what is it name? eth0? eth1? then replace the command with those | 04:00 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, it's name is wlan0 | 04:00 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> btw, is it on same hosts that you are chatting from now? | 04:01 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, what do you mean | 04:01 |
| Sinuvoid | The same computer? No | 04:01 |
| Distro^Junkie | can some help me remove kde4 from my system ? | 04:01 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> yes same pc | 04:01 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, no | 04:01 |
| kisuke | n8tuser: was recognized before, let me check (on tty2 brb | 04:01 |
| Angel-SL | Random832: well..? | 04:02 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> are you remoted to it or typing the command from a console of that remote hosts ? | 04:02 |
| Random832 | @Angel-SL, i don't know much about VPSes | 04:02 |
| Random832 | is that like a virtual machine? | 04:02 |
| Magnesium | Please...can anyone help? | 04:02 |
| Angel-SL | you don't need to know about VPSes | 04:02 |
| Angel-SL | what I need to know | 04:03 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, I am at that pc, typing in the commands at it's console. | 04:03 |
| Angel-SL | is how to change TZ without changing local time | 04:03 |
| n8tuser | Sinuvoid-> okay, per my initial advise, use vim to edit /etc/network/interfaces and have an entry for you wlan0, | 04:03 |
| Random832 | @Angel-SL, no, i don't think that's right... | 04:04 |
| kisuke | s8http://paste.ubuntu.com/297952/ | 04:04 |
| dan_ | i added this line in xorg.conf: Driver "vesa" | 04:04 |
| kisuke | n8tuser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/297952/ | 04:04 |
| Sinuvoid | n8tuser, ok | 04:04 |
| dan_ | it worked | 04:04 |
| `3mend0 | does anybody knows how to fix this ?? I don't understand why doesn't resolv by it self the dependeces http://paste.ubuntu.com/294942/ | 04:04 |
| `3mend0 | in advanche thanks | 04:04 |
| Random832 | the OS inside the VPS will have an idea of what the time is in UTC - if that's wrong, you have to fix something in the VPS config or maybe in the OS config depending on how much is... virtualized? | 04:04 |
| n8tuser | kisuke whats that about? | 04:04 |
| Random832 | it's not just a matter of changing the timezone - if the time it has for a timezone is wrong you can change it to a different timezone but then it will think you're in that timezone | 04:05 |

| queso_ | I'd like to run a 64bit virtual machine, how can I find out if my mother board supports 64-bit virtualization? I looked in the BIOS and couldn't find anything about it. | 04:29 |
| n8tuser | queso_-> dont know if dmidecode will tell you more.. | 04:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | queso_, to check if your CPU has virtualization (64bit virtualization?) "$ cat /proc/cpuinfo" (Intel verify "vmx" is present, for AMD verify "svm" is present) | 04:31 |
| queso_ | ZykoticK9: will "vmx" be present if it supports it, or if it is enabled? | 04:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | queso_, if it shows up in cpuinfo - that means your cpu supports it - enable in whatever Virtualization software you are using. | 04:33 |
| dsnyders | Hi all! What is the kdmflush service for? | 04:33 |
| queso_ | ZykoticK9: oh, I don't enable it in the bios if it's supported? | 04:34 |

| ZykoticK9 | queso_, bios? doubt it - but in say VirtualBox there is an option to enable that support for each VM. | 04:35 |
| coz_ | dsnyders, no problem they will most likely know what it is | 04:35 |
| georgy | I got a ? about 9.10 and restricted drivers | 04:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | queso_, fyi kvm (linux kenel virtual machine sw) requires that your cpu have that support (qemu, which kvm is sorta based on does not) | 04:36 |

| server1 | what routers are u using? | 04:41 |
| queso_ | ZykoticK9: awe, man! why'd I get this mb then? ugh, this totally stinks! | 04:41 |
| queso_ | ZykoticK9: I use kvm at work . . but here at home I'm trying virtualbox. but man, I just built this system. wonder why my friends recommended this mb if it doesn't support virtualization. | 04:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | queso_, you "might" even be able to run 64bit in VBox? probably does require the virtualization but not sure - i know you can run 64bit on 32bit hosts | 04:42 |

| durt | !sound | llua, clintA | 04:49 |
| ubottu | llua, clintA: 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 | 04:49 |
| llua | l314, it didnt work | 04:50 |
| BlackFLAG | i just installed ubuntu after using windows vista. does ubuntu seem slower at first or something? | 04:50 |
| BlackFLAG | i feel like its slower than vista | 04:50 |
| coz_ | BlackFLAG, ah it shouldnt | 04:51 |
| Mike_lifeguard | What is espdiff? | 04:51 |
| coz_ | BlackFLAG, did you install 9.04 or 9.10 beta? | 04:51 |
| BlackFLAG | like when im on the internet when i scroll up and down pages they load slower it seems like | 04:51 |
| BlackFLAG | 9.04 | 04:51 |
| jals | BlackFLAG, got graphics drivers installed? | 04:51 |
| durt | BlackFLAG, file search database might be running. | 04:51 |
| BlackFLAG | no how do i do that? | 04:51 |
| l314 | ZykoticK9, do i have that command right it is sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 04:51 |
| JuanCarlos | Hi | 04:52 |
| durt | !hi | JuanCarlos | 04:52 |
| ubottu | JuanCarlos: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 04:52 |
| coz_ | BlackFLAG, for the video driver go to system/administration/hardware drivers | 04:52 |
| JuanCarlos | Can i ask for Karmic here?, or what room i need to Join??? | 04:52 |
| Magnesium | coz_: Thanks for pointing me to those other channels...#ati had 26 people, so I didn't get an answer there, but a couple of folks at ##linux helped me. | 04:52 |
| BlackFLAG | can you guys also direct me to somewhere where i can learn more about linux and operating ubuntu efficently? | 04:52 |
| JuanCarlos | !foo | 04:52 |
| ubottu | bar | 04:52 |
| durt | !karmic | 04:52 |
| 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 | 04:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | l314, "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" should be right. | 04:52 |
| xangua | !karmic | JuanCarlos | 04:52 |
| ubottu | JuanCarlos: please see above | 04:52 |
| coz_ | Magnesium, very cool and yeah keep those channels for default ...they will come in handy :) | 04:53 |
| JuanCarlos | thankz | 04:53 |
| l314 | ZykoticK9, thank you catch you later about to install | 04:53 |
| BlackFLAG | can anyone help me download the graphics driver? | 04:53 |
| clintA | ubottu: I never get to my buddy list. I just get the error at the login splash screen. There is no File Edit View menu to adjust my sound settings in Gizmo. It's just the login screen. | 04:53 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 04:53 |
| Magnesium | coz_: Certainly, they're in my list...FYI, SGI/mesa is what's supposed to come up with the open source drivers. | 04:54 |
| BlackFLAG | the internet pages seem laggy | 04:54 |
| coz_ | Magnesium, also remember it is likely it will depend on the time of day and which part of the world many of the people in a channel will be available :) | 04:54 |
| m0r0n | Why are all my volumes restricted to be accessed by root only, fromy my camera to flash drive to partitions | 04:54 |
| Magnesium | coz_: Thanks again | 04:54 |
| coz_ | Magnesium, oh I see | 04:54 |
| coz_ | Magnesium, no problem | 04:54 |
| penthief | BlackFLAG, your question isn't specific enough (and I wouldn't know myself) | 04:54 |
| durt | m0r0n, check user permissions in the gui, /system/Users and Groups I think | 04:55 |
| BlackFLAG | i mean i JUST installed ubuntu 9.04 like 30 min. ago. im sure theres other plug ins and stuff i should install | 04:55 |
| m0r0n | durt: It has full access | 04:56 |
| penthief | BlackFLAG, maybe you want the restricted extras? I think it prompts for that now -- doesn't it? | 04:56 |

| server1 | if i have freedns pointing to my ip can i use it on mirc? | 05:01 |
| xlelouchxx | anyone have any ideas | 05:01 |
| penthief | xlelouchxx, I'm sure someone out there will help with this wubi thing if you ask the right question :) | 05:01 |
| xlelouchxx | thats my only question | 05:02 |

| axisys | mobile broadband express card where i can insert my GSM or CDMA chip to access broadbad | 05:04 |
| mandrig | xlelouchxx: is it that your keyboard isn't working? (because obviously it is, you're typing on it right now.) | 05:04 |
| xlelouchxx | so i think the problem is is that since windows is crap, it doesnt load the drivers for the keyboard | 05:04 |
| xlelouchxx | clearly not | 05:04 |
| xlelouchxx | it is working lol | 05:04 |
| bust3r | u got a usb keyboard? | 05:04 |
| xlelouchxx | i think so | 05:04 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Why can't I remove espdiff and banner? | 05:04 |
| xlelouchxx | lemme check again | 05:04 |
| penthief | xlelouchxx, maybe you just need to do the most obvious thing -- if you get it wrong, then ask a specific question | 05:04 |
| xlelouchxx | well i know how to select ubuntu in the list | 05:05 |
| xlelouchxx | its just i cannot scroll through with the arrow keys | 05:05 |
| mandrig | xlelouchxx: so, the arrow keys aren't working? | 05:05 |
| xlelouchxx | in other words, the keyboard doesnt work on the specific screen | 05:05 |
| xlelouchxx | the keyboard | 05:05 |

| xlelouchxx | it works on the startup bios screen | 05:05 |
| xlelouchxx | but not the wubi selection screen | 05:06 |
| mandrig | xlelouchxx: then the problem is likely with GRUB | 05:06 |

| xlelouchxx | the only reason i keep windows is for gaming | 05:10 |
| mandrig | !specific | 05:10 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about specific | 05:10 |
| mankash | Is it possible to create DVD which work for both ntsc and pal | 05:10 |
| mandrig | doltek, you need to be more specific than that, besides that, what you're looking for is compiz | 05:11 |
| mandrig | !compiz | doltek | 05:11 |
| ubottu | doltek: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz | 05:11 |
| penthief | doltek, compiz. apt-get install compiz | 05:11 |
| xlelouchxx | ok so when is the grub screen open | 05:11 |
| xlelouchxx | is it in the bios startup? | 05:11 |
| mandrig | xlelouchxx: when it asks you which OS to load, it should say something like "GRUB v. 2.xxx" | 05:11 |
| xlelouchxx | ok | 05:11 |
| xlelouchxx | i'll figure this out | 05:12 |

| HumayunMirzaJr | Okay another, question , How do I make my internal Mic and Card Reader work on Acer Aspire One Zg5 Remix ? | 05:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | b14ck, can you pastbin your fstab? and perhaps the output of (assuming sata drives) "mount | grep sd" | 05:12 |
| _ubuntu_ | can grub2 boot from usb? | 05:14 |
| _ubuntu_ | :O | 05:14 |
| _ubuntu_ | w/out bios support? | 05:14 |
| Mike_lifeguard | When I boot my computer, it has some sort of firmware bootloader that tries to get a DHCP lease for no apparent reason before GRUB loads... is there any way I can skip that? | 05:14 |
| _ubuntu_ | Mike_lifeguard: Go to your BIOS setup, then deactivate Preboot execution environment. | 05:15 |
| _ubuntu_ | btw, nevermind my last question... so noobish! | 05:16 |
| penthief | HumayunMirzaJr, well if it doesn't work out of the box then find you need to find out what model it is and do some googling. Sorry for the crap answer BTW! | 05:16 |

| a__ | hi room. I'm trying to create a partition for the Mac OSX and have duel boot up capability. one for ubuntu, one for OSX. | 05:19 |
| a__ | right now I have ubuntu 9.04 installed only | 05:20 |
| Travisivart | I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for me on a somewhat ubuntu related topic. I need to bring a computer in for a warranty claim, and I'd like to put windows vista back on the computer to avoid a hassle. The DVD drive does not work, nor does the computer have the capability of usb booting. What can I do just to take ubuntu off of the computer? | 05:20 |
| dsnyders | ZykoticK9, I don't have a System/Preferences/Startup Applications, and System/Administration/Services shows nothing about ntop or pioneers or chipcardd4 | 05:22 |
| mobi-sheep | !windows | Travisivart | 05:22 |
| ubottu | Travisivart: For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents | 05:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | dsnyders, System/Preferences/Sessions maybe? | 05:22 |
| Travisivart | It's in relation to just removing ubuntu, not necessarily Windows.... | 05:23 |
| dsnyders | ZykoticK9, That looks a little more promising. | 05:23 |
| mandrig | Travisivart: um... external dvd drive? or *maybe* fdisk | 05:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | dsnyders, you on 8.10? | 05:23 |
| _ubuntu_ | Tranvisivart: PXE, maybe? | 05:23 |
| mobi-sheep | _ubuntu_: Windows supports PXE? | 05:24 |
| dsnyders | ZykoticK9, Yes, 8.10 | 05:24 |

| Travisivart | mandrig, nothing usb works | 05:26 |
| Travisivart | at all | 05:26 |
| Kamilion | Travisivart: You could always ask 'dd' to wipe the disk if you're sure you won't get the machine back. | 05:26 |
| Travisivart | Kamilion, what do you mean dd? | 05:26 |
| mandrig | !dd | Travisivart | 05:26 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about dd | 05:26 |
| mandrig | .... | 05:26 |
| _ubuntu_ | hehehe | 05:26 |
| penthief | Travisivart, Don't use dd. | 05:26 |
| Kamilion | ... That's a suprise. | 05:27 |
| Travisivart | Kamilion, this is going to be going in as a "repair warranty issue, and not coming back to me." i'm receiving a new computer | 05:27 |
| Travisivart | Basically, all I want to do | 05:27 |
| Travisivart | is wipe the drive completely | 05:27 |
| _ubuntu_ | Travisivart: then how did you install ubuntu? | 05:27 |
| Kamilion | then google 'dd wipe' | 05:27 |
| Travisivart | the drive was working at that time obviously | 05:27 |
| Kamilion | _ubuntu_: when the machine was still working, obviously | 05:27 |
| _ubuntu_ | duh... | 05:27 |
| Travisivart | yes. | 05:27 |
| Travisivart | now it isn't | 05:27 |
| penthief | Travisivart, I'm confused -- do you have a windows partition currently? | 05:27 |
| Travisivart | no | 05:27 |
| Travisivart | i have absolutely nothing | 05:28 |
| Travisivart | i have just ubuntu | 05:28 |
| mandrig | Travisivart: alternatively take a magnet to the hard disk. | 05:28 |
| FloodBot1 | Travisivart: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:28 |
| Travisivart | otherwise i'd be fine | 05:28 |
| _ubuntu_ | though it didn't come with one... | 05:28 |
| Daedalus-Sax | i have a ati x1300. why can't ubuntu 9.04 use the ati provided driver? 8.04 can. | 05:28 |
| Travisivart | mandrig, how strong of a magnet would i need? | 05:28 |
| mandrig | "Let me call Mark Shuttleworth and ask him..." | 05:28 |
| mobi-sheep | penthief: His question was "I'd like to put windows vista back on the computer. The DVD drive does not work, nor does the computer have the capability of usb booting. What can I do to install Windows on the computer?" | 05:28 |
| Kamilion | Magnets are useless. | 05:29 |
| mandrig | Travisivart: My friend... i wouldn't honestly do that... | 05:29 |
| mobi-sheep | Travisivart: You're going to try and install Windows on it again, right? Before you turn it over to the department. | 05:29 |
| Daedalus-Sax | i get this message: Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version | 05:29 |

| Magnesium | Travisivart: Does your computer have a serial port? Maybe you could use that to ssh into your ubuntu and delete everything... | 05:29 |
| Kamilion | Travisivart: Check your pms. | 05:29 |
| Travisivart | mobi-sheep, i don't care enough to put windows back on it, i'm letting them sort through this shithole of a computer | 05:30 |
| mandrig | mobi-sheep: how would he do that sans disk drive? | 05:30 |
| Travisivart | Magnesium, no serial port, shitty laptop with nothing good | 05:30 |
| Travisivart | Kamilion, k | 05:30 |
| mobi-sheep | Travisivart: If the hardware malfunctioned, I don't think it should matter what operating system you are using. | 05:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | Daedalus-Sax, see post - looks like ATI dropped support for you card in 9.04 and 9.10 :( http://georgia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8099327 | 05:31 |
| Magnesium | Travisivart: Wait a minute...I get that you want to completely remove Ubuntu, right? But do you want to/have to reinstall Windows? | 05:31 |
| mandrig | if it's a sata, you could buy an external disk enclosure and then mount the disk on a computer with working usb.. | 05:31 |
| _ubuntu_ | mandrig: does it actually matter if it's sata or ata? | 05:32 |
| Travisivart | guys, i got it all fine | 05:32 |
| Wiseman | sup | 05:32 |
| Travisivart | got help, thanks | 05:32 |
| Daedalus-Sax | the sad truth of it is that ubuntu dropped the coverage. ati says that the driver they are offering can't be improved upon and is perfect the way it is, and i have to agree | 05:32 |
| Wiseman | Has anyone here ever used TinyXP? | 05:32 |
| mandrig | well... i guess not, i have a sata enclosure for these issues, lol | 05:32 |
| mandrig | er. _ubuntu_ , what i said just before this. | 05:32 |
| penthief | It's an interesting question -- would a shop invalidate a warranty for installing Linux? | 05:32 |
| Magnesium | Travisivart: How'd you do it? | 05:33 |
| a__ | how do I see who's chatting in the room? | 05:33 |
| mobi-sheep | a__: What IRC client are you using? | 05:33 |

| a__ | i'm on xchat | 05:33 |
| mobi-sheep | a__: View --> User List ? | 05:34 |
| Daedalus-Sax | is there a way i can retro actively get back whatever was in 8.04 that now is gone or changed to the point where my driver can no longer be installed, because the ati driver works awesome on many distro's that are current, like for instance wolvix, but not ubuntu's current 9.04 | 05:34 |
| a__ | ok thanx mobi, I found it | 05:34 |
| mobi-sheep | a__: Great. ;3 | 05:34 |
| === mandrig is now known as void | ||
| === void is now known as mandrig | ||
| Daedalus-Sax | if you take 5 os's, and a lnux driver works perfect on all of them except ubuntu's 9.04, you gotta start thinking, hmm, must be ubuntu | 05:36 |
| Koterpillar | How can I check how much mounts are left till the next boot-up filesystem check? | 05:37 |
| a__ | how do I partition the HD so that I can install another operating system as well as ubuntu? | 05:37 |
| Daedalus-Sax | does anyone know what changed from 8.04 to 9.04 that a tried and true driver will no longer install..?? maybe i can install the old files, er, whatever | 05:37 |

| Koterpillar | Daedalus-Sax, kernel version at the very least. What driver? | 05:38 |
| Geoffrey2 | I'm assuming there's something in the ati driver that you need that the ubuntu provided driver for that card doesn't offer? | 05:38 |
| a__ | durt. wont gparted erase my ubuntu data thus far? | 05:38 |
| Koterpillar | a__, it can shrink partitions without losing data | 05:39 |
| durt | a__, I believe it can resize | 05:39 |
| Daedalus-Sax | i have an ati x1300, and on 8.04 the proprietary driver worked awesome, now it doesnt. i am using 9.04. big mistale upgrading | 05:39 |
| Magnesium | a__: You can use it to resize partitions without losing any data. | 05:39 |
| a__ | ok. thanx everyone | 05:39 |
| Geoffrey2 | for the record, the x1300 has gone legacy status, AMD/ATI won't be doing much more in the way of updates to the driver support for that card..... | 05:39 |
| b14ck | I need help getting my internal drive working :( I have my drive as /dev/sdb. I did: sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb then I added the following line to /etc/fstab: UUID=a0468ee7-dad6-4332-a777-61f9a04070f3 /monster ext3 defaults 0 2. then i did sudo mount -a. but i get errors. what am i doing wrong? | 05:40 |
| horsie | this is why i swapped to an nvidia card - less hassles | 05:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | Daedalus-Sax, Since v. 9.4, the propriatery ATI driver supports only R600 and newer devices (that means, HD2xxx and newer). For older cards, especially laptop users, be aware that the ATI Catalyst 8-8 driver only supports Xorg <= 7.3. Xorg 7.4 support was not introduced until the 8-10 Catalyst driver release. This means that if you are using Xorg 7.4 with an older card, your only current option is the open-source drivers, especially xf86-video-a | 05:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | ti | 05:40 |
| Daedalus-Sax | i know. but what that means is "we have worked all the bugs out we can find, and this driver is rock solid" and it is. which means it's up to the os to then step up and make it compatable, like, for instance, driver works on xp, ohh yeah, and windows 7. ubuntu should be the same | 05:41 |
| === __Techie_ is now known as _Techie_ | ||
| lstarnes | Daedalus-Sax: linux is not windows | 05:41 |
| Billiard | b14ck: what errors do you get? | 05:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | Daedalus-Sax, ati dropped support for X Windows - that's all linux/bsd/*nix OSs - not Ubuntu's fault | 05:42 |
| === O_o is now known as Guest92391 | ||
| Daedalus-Sax | that being true, that doesnt mean the concept shouldnt be the same. | 05:42 |
| lstarnes | Daedalus-Sax: because each os uses a different interface, it's really more up to the driver developers | 05:42 |
| b14ck | Billiard, http://pastie.org/663047 | 05:42 |
| Daedalus-Sax | they dropped all support for all os's. windows made their own driver for windows 7. i have it, it's listed as being an ati/ms driver | 05:43 |
| Billiard | b14ck: mkfs.ext3 should be called on sdb1 not sdb | 05:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | b14ck, you don't format a drive sdb you format a partition sdb1!!! | 05:43 |
| Daedalus-Sax | well, ok. if i can't do anything about it, i will just have to use another os, but i do like ubuntu. well there is always a vm :) | 05:43 |
| b14ck | well that would explain it | 05:44 |
| b14ck | brb i'll try that | 05:44 |

| JohnFlux | Hey all | 05:44 |
| JohnFlux | how do I get skype to work in 9.04 ? | 05:44 |
| mobi-sheep | !skype | JohnFlux | 05:44 |
| ubottu | JohnFlux: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 05:44 |
| Magnesium | !overclock | 05:45 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about overclock | 05:45 |
| jgornick | Can someone recommend a web cam that works well with Ubuntu and Skype and has an integrated mic? | 05:45 |
| _ubuntu_ | personally, I liked the open source ati drivers... | 05:45 |
| Daedalus-Sax | is there a better driver in the open source community than the one ubuntu is trying to use for my ati x1300 currently? | 05:45 |
| sjokkis | i didn't find the option to encrypt my harddrive when i installed 9.04. what's the best (or 'official') way of doing it after installing? i'd like to encrypt the whole drive, so that i need the decryption password to boot up | 05:45 |
| JohnFlux | mobi-sheep: does it cover how to fight pulseaudio ? | 05:45 |
| _ubuntu_ | they ran beryl smoothly on my old MacMini with an ATI Radeon 9200 | 05:45 |
| mobi-sheep | JohnFlux: I do not know. See !sound for more information on sounds. | 05:45 |
| _ubuntu_ | !sound | 05:45 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 05:45 |
| _ubuntu_ | : O | 05:45 |
| Daedalus-Sax | because the driver ubuntu is providing is atrocious, on the "barely functioning" mark | 05:45 |
| JohnFlux | mobi-sheep: ah it tells you to just remove pulseaudio | 05:45 |
| JohnFlux | haha | 05:46 |
| JohnFlux | I see lots of bug fixes go into 9.10, but why are none of these backported to 9.04 ? | 05:46 |
| jeeves_Moss | how do I do a passwordless RSYNC backup over SSH | 05:47 |
| JohnFlux | is it just lack of manpower, or a design philisophy? | 05:47 |
| benmills | Hello, I was wondering if I could get some help getting Ubuntu to use my ethernet connection | 05:47 |
| _ubuntu_ | JohnFlux: Karmic comes out in 9 days. Why waste time in backporting? | 05:47 |
| lstarnes | JohnFlux: partly design philosophy | 05:47 |
| Magnesium | JohnFlux: Since Karmic is not out offcial yet, I would imagine that they have not been backported yet | 05:47 |
| Magnesium | officially | 05:47 |
| JohnFlux | maybe I should just try upgrading to 9.10 now | 05:48 |
| JohnFlux | is it in a good-enough state? | 05:48 |
| Geoffrey2 | JohnFlux, I'd at least wait for the RC in the next day or two | 05:49 |
| axisys | how can I tell if I have intel centrino or intel pentium cpu in my laptop? here is the cpuinfo Intel_ASF | 05:49 |
| axisys | Intel_ASF_001 | 05:49 |
| axisys | Handle 0x0014, DMI type 130, 20 bytes | 05:49 |
| Magnesium | JohnFlux: I would just wait 9 days for the official release, or at least the RC | 05:49 |
| axisys | OEM-specific Type | 05:49 |
| _ubuntu_ | JohnFlux: It works much better than 9.04 for me | 05:49 |
| FloodBot1 | axisys: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:49 |
| Daedalus-Sax | please send me a link to the best open source driver for the x1300 you know of, because ill i can find is the driver ubuntu already has installed, and that is pure requiem (not good) | 05:49 |
| axisys | http://pastebin.com/f43d02a2b | 05:49 |
| axisys | FloodBot1: mistake.. my touchpad is too sensitive .. sorry! | 05:49 |
| JohnFlux | Magnesium: there's still no RC ? with 9 days to go? | 05:50 |
| _ubuntu_ | JohnFlux: My ethernet works again thanks to 9.10 :) | 05:50 |
| JohnFlux | Magnesium: Isn't that cutting it kinda close? | 05:50 |
| lstarnes | JohnFlux: it's a beta | 05:50 |

| Magnesium | JohnFlux: Just a sec... | 05:50 |
| TBird | Chicken01 | 05:50 |
| _ubuntu_ | nicl: there's a chromium ppa | 05:50 |
| JohnFlux | nah no problem - I believe you | 05:50 |
| lstarnes | nic1: also, http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel | 05:51 |
| JohnFlux | just seems a very short RC if it's only a few days | 05:51 |
| _ubuntu_ | nicl: and a official Google repository | 05:51 |
| Magnesium | See here for the schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KarmicReleaseSchedule | 05:51 |
| Geoffrey2 | RC was slated to drop this Thursday | 05:51 |
| JohnFlux | the KDE release schedule leaves several months for an RC | 05:51 |
| Magnesium | JohnFlux: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KarmicReleaseSchedule | 05:51 |
| Magnesium | JohnFlux: so the RC comes out in 2 days...yeah, short RC | 05:52 |
| SnakDoc_ | JohnFlux the beta seems to be very stable so far | 05:52 |
| _ubuntu_ | JohnFlux: the only thing that crashes for me is telepathy-butterfly | 05:52 |
| _ubuntu_ | :S | 05:52 |
| JohnFlux | 1 month and 3 days specifically .. :-) | 05:52 |
| _ubuntu_ | don't know what is it... | 05:52 |
| Daedalus-Sax | i have 1:6.12.1 for the fglrx ati x1300 driver. you can do absolutely nothing graphical with this driver. just changing the appearance can lock it up. i don't think i would like to try and use solitaire, becuase i have had to shut off the poor machine already 3 times | 05:53 |
| JohnFlux | (1 month and 3 days between KDE RC1 and release | 05:53 |
| JohnFlux | ) | 05:53 |
| Geoffrey2 | hmmm, I'm running an x1200 over here, ubuntu 9.04, no problems....... | 05:53 |
| Daedalus-Sax | please give me a hint to an open source driver other than this piece of .. somehting. | 05:54 |
| gogeta | open drivers come with the distro | 05:54 |
| Magnesium | nic1: Here: http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel is a place you can download packages of Chrome. It's a dev build (they don't have anything official yet), but I've been using it for months, and it is very stable | 05:55 |
| Daedalus-Sax | what am i doing wrong, i even set the graphics for the "prettyness" to none, so i t would use less graphics power | 05:55 |
| Magnesium | nic1: Oh, and when you install the packages, they add a repo, so the latest updates are install through apt-get | 05:55 |
| JayPro | anyone with an Asus EEE pc, 1000HA.... add any video drivers. i dual boot and it seems like some of the videos i play are faster on windows | 05:55 |
| gogeta | JayPro: yes thats a issue with 9.04 there working on 9.10 | 05:56 |
| gogeta | JayPro: very poor intel drivers | 05:56 |
| JayPro | gogeta ohhh okay.... so i should just wait 9 days until 9.10 comes out.... | 05:57 |
| Daedalus-Sax | ohh my god, i found the problem thanx to geoffrey2. settign the visual effects to none, fo rsome reason shut the fglrx driver off. i turned it back on and wham, it's like the lightes just turned on | 05:57 |

| cab938_lappy | I'm playing with 9.10, and I want to install a package from 9.04 rather than the 9.10 version | 06:00 |
| cab938_lappy | Is there a way to do this with apt-get? | 06:01 |
| durt | !samba | lingp | 06:01 |

| gogeta | cab938_lappy: you can but it might not have deps nedded | 06:01 |
| lstarnes | cab938_lappy: that is likely very unsafe to do | 06:01 |
| cab938_lappy | I can try and manage the deos myself | 06:01 |
| cab938_lappy | It's a java package | 06:01 |
| cab938_lappy | But it's broken for 9.10 | 06:01 |
| gogeta | cab938_lappy: best to see if you can just find the deb | 06:02 |
| cab938_lappy | deos == dependencies | 06:02 |
| gogeta | install that way | 06:02 |
| lingp | ubonttu: how abt likewise-opn? | 06:02 |
| a__ | how do you shrink a partition in gparted? | 06:02 |
| cab938_lappy | gogeta, I think it is broken in their repo | 06:02 |
| gogeta | cab938_lappy: yea finding the normal deb would be a difrent ver | 06:02 |
| gogeta | and not risk baking combatble | 06:03 |
| axisys | my laptop does not support multi finger tapping.. is there still a way to achive that some other way ? | 06:03 |
| gogeta | braking | 06:03 |
| cab938_lappy | hrm, not sure I understand | 06:03 |
| gogeta | axisys: no thats hardware | 06:03 |
| cab938_lappy | You mean find a deb of the prev version? | 06:03 |
| cab938_lappy | and install frpom that? | 06:04 |
| gogeta | cab938_lappy: go to apps site download deb file | 06:04 |
| gogeta | easy way to get around broken repos | 06:04 |
| gogeta | instaling a jaunty deb then should be a non issue | 06:05 |
| cab938_lappy | I meant the release version of the app is broken | 06:05 |
| Mr_Orange | anyone see anything wrong with this crontab entry? @daily /etc/squeezer2.pl >> "/var/www/wordpress/squidlogs/`date +'%B %-d %Y'` - report.html" 2>&1 | 06:05 |

| cab938_lappy | I'll try grabbing the deb | 06:05 |
| Mr_Orange | mobi-sheep: it works just fine when i run as root | 06:06 |
| Mr_Orange | thats what i dont get | 06:06 |
| Billiard | Mr_Orange: full path to date | 06:06 |
| gogeta | strange a java app is broken | 06:06 |
| Geoffrey2 | I'll probably make the switch to the 64 bit ubuntu when karmic comes out | 06:06 |
| JayPro | gogeta oh! do you happen to have a bluetooth usb? ive been trying to get my bluetooth headset to sync with eee-control, but it doesnt seem to work | 06:06 |

| Mr_Orange | yeah, wasnt sure exactly what you meant though | 06:07 |
| lstarnes | corsakh: yes | 06:07 |

| Mr_Orange | Billiard: ok, thanks | 06:08 |

| Billiard | Mr_Orange: np | 06:09 |
| corsakh | I am running Windows XP under VMWare workstation | 06:09 |
| corsakh | is there some way | 06:09 |
| JayPro | gogeta ohh ONLY bluetooth hardware?! gotcha! | 06:09 |
| gogeta | corsakh: virtuulbox is free heh and just as powerfull | 06:09 |
| corsakh | that I could span Windows desktop over two workspaces? | 06:09 |
| corsakh | Ye I tried VB but it works a lot slower on my machine for the tasks that I do | 06:10 |
| cab938_lappy | gogeta, just o clarify, if i install the jaunty deb, it will install the dependancies as well? | 06:10 |
| gogeta | cab938_lappy: it should install them as long as the app does not mind newer versions | 06:11 |

| gogeta | pffftt | 06:16 |
| gogeta | use ssh | 06:16 |
| zhaozhou | Daedalus-Sax: yeah, don't use telnet, it's way too easy to sniff out telnet traffic | 06:16 |
| mneptok | Daedalus-Sax: telnet does not need a client. just a terminal. | 06:16 |
| lstarnes | Daedalus-Sax: there is the cli telnet | 06:16 |
| JohnFlux | Daedalus-Sax: the linux command line programs are called literally "telnet" and "ssh" | 06:16 |

| JohnFlux | Daedalus-Sax: apt-get install putty if you really do want that, but do that only if you really do get stuck with the command line versions | 06:20 |

| sevenless | Happy 5th birthday Ubuntu!!!!! | 06:20 |
| Daedalus-Sax | nah, this is working perfect, don't need putty. windows hasn't come witha telnet app since hyperterm in xp. | 06:21 |

| ziroday | malopez06: could you pastebin your /etc/fstab please, also when you say everything is read only do you mean everything on the FAT drive is read only, or *everything* is read only? | 06:33 |

| malopez06 | where can i paste so it doesnt all go here? | 06:33 |
| sohrab | i cant update my sudo apt-get update | 06:33 |
| ziroday | malopez06: actually I'm really sorry I have to run, but someone else can help you here | 06:33 |
| Billiard | sohrab: what happens | 06:34 |
| malopez06 | ok thanks for your help so far | 06:34 |
| ziroday | thisdotpheonix: I would ask in #launchpad | 06:34 |
| sohrab | i cant update my sudo apt-get update | 06:34 |
| bazhang | Gadu, that is the version in karmic | 06:34 |
| Gadu | sohrab: he means what is the error output | 06:34 |
| Gadu | bazhang: so I'll have to go on a wild goose chase for dependencies if I want it? lol | 06:34 |
| josephstalin | Hey everyone | 06:35 |
| josephstalin | Anyone want a Lockerz invite? | 06:35 |
| bazhang | Gadu, were you planning on upgrading to karmic in 8 days or so | 06:35 |
| bazhang | josephstalin, wrong channel | 06:35 |
| josephstalin | What's the right channel for offtopic then? | 06:35 |
| ce_metal_cord | - | 06:35 |
| Billiard | malopez06: you just want full rw for everyone on the fat partition? | 06:35 |
| bazhang | josephstalin, there is no right channel for that | 06:35 |
| Gadu | bazhang: I intend to upgrade to 9.10 when 10.04 comes out XD | 06:35 |
| josephstalin | lolol | 06:36 |
| malopez06 | Billiard: i do, and ive added that to fstab | 06:36 |
| malopez06 | heres pastebin | 06:36 |
| malopez06 | http://pastebin.com/m354cb5d6 | 06:36 |
| Billiard | malopez06: add umask=000 to the fat partitions options | 06:36 |
| === ce_metal_cord is now known as ce_zha | ||
| malopez06 | along with rw, defaults, etc? | 06:37 |
| zaoul1 | woah, somehow I have 224 updates? I thought karmic had a couple days to go? | 06:37 |
| Billiard | malopez06: you probably can take out rw and defaults, not sure what quiet does | 06:37 |
| lstarnes | zaoul1: what are you using now? | 06:37 |
| malopez06 | ok, ill try it | 06:37 |
| zaoul1 | lstarnes: 9.04 | 06:38 |
| muri_one | are there any alternative gnome-panel window list apps? | 06:38 |
| malopez06 | Billiard: thanks! that worked | 06:39 |
| Billiard | malopez06: np | 06:40 |
| malopez06 | can you explain umask to me? i was trying 777 instead; i thought that was 'ultimate permissions' or whatever | 06:40 |
| Billiard | malopez06: ya its weird its just like the reverse | 06:40 |
| malopez06 | ok | 06:40 |
| malopez06 | thanks a bunch | 06:40 |
| malopez06 | have an awesome day/nite | 06:40 |
| Nhawdge | Hey, all I need to disable gspca, as I believe it's what's causing my webcam to stay on, and reach ridiculous heights, but I am not sure which of the 20 or mods it is | 06:44 |
| sparc | i'm sorry if this is is the FAQ, but as far as target audience, is Ubuntu aimed somewhat at the Linux Desktop User? | 06:48 |
| Bmachine | Hi ppl! | 06:48 |
| Nhawdge | Ubuntu desktop is | 06:48 |
| U2 | sparc: it is! | 06:48 |
| sparc | aah ok, cool | 06:48 |
| sparc | thank you | 06:49 |
| U2 | and you only need to learn 2 commands: sudo -i | 06:49 |
| Bmachine | I started using ubuntu again after 3 years, and I love jaunty, i would like to get some knowledge of how well windows xp works inside vmware within ubuntu | 06:49 |
| U2 | and apt-get install | 06:49 |
| Bmachine | so i can make a total switch | 06:49 |
| Nhawdge | I've had good experiences with VBox, but then I realized ubuntu does everything and more that I want, so I dropped it | 06:50 |
| Living2007 | i haven't touch ubuntu for nearly a year | 06:50 |
| Living2007 | Goodbye windows as my OS | 06:50 |
| U2 | Living2007: what do you use? | 06:50 |
| Living2007 | 8.04 | 06:50 |
| muri_one | I think he meant windows | 06:50 |
| Bmachine | yeah | 06:50 |
| U2 | that would make sense | 06:51 |
| Living2007 | windows then eh; was XP | 06:51 |
| Bmachine | well, my problem with ditching windows all together is that im a designer | 06:51 |
| JoeK | how do i use "vi" to remove text in a file? | 06:51 |
| Nhawdge | Anyway to tell which module my web cam is using so I can shut it off so it will stop burning my fingers? | 06:51 |
| Bmachine | I like photoshop cs4 | 06:51 |
| fantomas | Hi all | 06:51 |

| fantomas | wtf? | 06:52 |
| muri_one | JoeK: x to delete a character dd to delete a line. there are a million other ways too. why are you using vi? | 06:52 |
| U2 | without the 4 dots | 06:52 |
| JoeK | the readme says too | 06:52 |
| fantomas | FloodBot1: gtfo | 06:52 |
| bazhang | fantomas, stop that | 06:52 |
| U2 | JoeK: use nano or pico instead | 06:52 |
| U2 | they are easy | 06:52 |
| fantomas | bazhang: me? what I do wrong? stop what? | 06:52 |
| fantomas | talking to the bot? :) ok dude | 06:52 |
| Living2007 | how can it | 06:53 |
| Bmachine | so if i have a quadcore-64bit-4gigsram system running windows within vmwamre IN ubuntu, i should get a good response running progs like photoshop etc..? | 06:53 |

| BossNobody | Hello anyone here? | 06:55 |

| muri_one | Nobody | 06:56 |
| Jordan_U | Bmachine: Guest additions are software ( usually drivers ) that you install on the guest os ( in this case windows ) so that it can take advantage of VMware's graphics acceleration and other features | 06:56 |

| BossNobody | I know this probably isn't he place to ask this but does anyone know what difference betwene Ubuntu Moblin Remix and Moblin itself is? | 06:56 |

| BossNobody | nothing about apps available either | 07:00 |
| Ania12lat | BossNobody: maybe moblin isn't based on ubuntu :f | 07:00 |
| Ania12lat | damn | 07:00 |

| muri_one | BossNobody: sounds to me it just takes the moblin apps an kernel patches and adds them to Ubuntu. | 07:00 |
| BossNobody | It isn't it should be based off F10 | 07:01 |
| BossNobody | Would that mean aps that work under ubuntu may work under the remix? | 07:01 |
| BossNobody | I want to try it out I think it's under Ubuntu 9.10 even | 07:01 |

| mgmuscari | muri_one: keep getting this: http://pastebin.ca/1634415 | 07:14 |
| muri_one | mgmuscari: I just remembered it uses mysql uses a unix socket when connecting locally, so that doesn't mean it's set up right | 07:17 |
| muri_one | mgmuscari: does the mysql command work if you manually specify 127.0.0.1 and the port? | 07:19 |
| muri_one | can you telnet or nc to "localhost 3306" | 07:21 |
| Hajuu | sure | 07:21 |
| indus | !telnet | 07:22 |
| ubottu | telnet is not safe. Please use ssh instead. See !ssh | 07:22 |
| mgmuscari | muri_one: hmmm let me process all that... was in another room | 07:22 |
| John_K | anyone heard of problems with forcedeth driver with ION platforms like the ASRock? | 07:22 |
| Hajuu | indus: lol pretty sure telnetting to localhost is pretty secure ;) | 07:22 |
| mgmuscari | muri_one: you mean using -h? | 07:22 |
| muri_one | mgmuscari: yep | 07:23 |
| mgmuscari | if i use -h 127.0.0.1 it still connects ok | 07:23 |

| John_K | jaunty | 07:28 |
| muri_one | mgmuscari: I still don't trust that command. actually nc or telnet to the mysql server.. nc localhost 3306. see if it even makes a connection. | 07:28 |
| John_K | tried both 32 and 64 bit | 07:28 |
| John_K | both the stock kernel and mainline from kernel.org | 07:28 |

| John_K | yeah 1 sec | 07:30 |
| muri_one | mgmuscari: in that case I'd look back at the java/tomcat side of things. It should at least be getting a packet from mysql server. | 07:33 |

| jeeaar | hey guys, I've just updated my vaio laptop to jaunty hoping it might finally solve my 3d graphics problem. Pretty much everytime I try to run an openGL app, it crashes or gives me errors. I've tried googling the issue, and have browsed through the wiki, but nothing ive tried seems to fix it. Any ideas? | 07:34 |
| Jordan_U | jeeaar: What GPU? | 07:35 |
| jeeaar | jordan, intel gma 900 | 07:36 |
| ADmiral | Hello #ubuntu! I'm using Jaunty and after I've manually added the main Karmic repository and upgraded lots of packages, the File Browser doesn't know any of the MIME types anymore. Everything is a "plain text document". How do I fix that? | 07:36 |
| zaoul1 | all thoes blasted updates and I still get corrupted fonts | 07:37 |
| Murphy1 | hi | 07:37 |
| Jordan_U | jeeaar: You had the same problems in 8.10 ? | 07:38 |
| jeeaar | yeah, it's been the same problem since gutsy | 07:38 |
| aeonoris | I could swear there was an application on Ubuntu that allowed you to receive calls from phones for free. Anybody know what it was called? | 07:38 |
| jeeaar | before that I was on XP | 07:39 |
| vtec | Hello I am having alot of problems with my audio recently and its really bothering me, when I'm listening to music with Rythmbox I can't go on youtube and hear sounds, I have to close my music player, restart firefox a few times for it to work, then when I'm watching a movie and pause it to watch a youtube video after youtube when I go back to my movie it doesnt play anymore, anyone know whats going on? this is ridiculous | 07:39 |
| durt | aeonoris, skype? | 07:39 |
| indus | what happened to ubuntu bounties? | 07:39 |
| aeonoris | durt, doesn't that have a cost for calls with phones? | 07:40 |

| Kamilion | blame the death of hardware supporting accelerated mixing... *snif, g'bye nforce2, we'll miss your ALU* | 07:40 |
| jeeaar | vtec, I had a similar problem a few months ago. You should try updating your browser, maybe reinstall the plugins? | 07:40 |
| Jordan_U | ADmiral: karmic is not released and that is not the way to upgrade even if it were, your system is likely currently broken in many ways | 07:40 |
| John_K | Jordan_U: the routing table looks fine | 07:40 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: I bet you don't have a hardware mixing sound card (aka: onboard sound) and pulseaudio is barfing | 07:40 |
| vtec | Jeeaar: I've tried | 07:41 |
| vtec | Zaoul1: know how I can fix it? | 07:41 |
| indus | ADmiral: extremely bad idea | 07:41 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: check pulseaudio is on | 07:41 |
| vtec | No it's removed | 07:41 |
| vtec | I'm using ALSA | 07:41 |
| zaoul1 | there is your problem | 07:41 |
| vtec | I was told to us ALSA entirely | 07:41 |
| ADmiral | Jordan_U & indus, that's okay, as soon as Karmic is out I'll do a clean reinstall. I was just wondering if anyone knows what the cause is | 07:41 |
| indus | ADmiral: what exactly were you trying to do | 07:41 |
| ADmiral | so I could fix it in the mean time | 07:42 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: solving problems is great isn't it | 07:42 |
| aeonoris | vtec, try 'padevchooser', and see if you can see the separate audio channels in the volume control. If you can, make sure they are playing to the correct device | 07:42 |
| vtec | Zaoul1: How can I do that? | 07:42 |
| aeonoris | vtec, I dunno if that would help, but I had a problem where firefox wouldn't make sound at all, and the padevchooser thing worked. | 07:42 |
| ADmiral | I was trying to get the new vlc package with all dependencies. | 07:42 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: reinstall pulseaudio | 07:42 |
| * sharperguy had no idea that amarok was both the Inuit name for a wolf, and an album by Mike Oldfield | 07:42 | |
| indus | vtec: did you remove pulse? | 07:42 |
| vtec | Zaoul1: I know, but how | 07:42 |
| ADmiral | and yes I have it and it works | 07:42 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: how did you remove it? | 07:42 |
| vtec | Indus: Yes someone here told me I was better off without pulseaudio | 07:42 |
| Jordan_U | ADmiral: The cause is that you are currently half way between jaunty and karmic, try running "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and hopefully it can make sense of things, then joid #ubuntu+1 for any further problems | 07:43 |
| vtec | One second let me check terminal history | 07:43 |
| indus | vtec: alsa cannot playback multiple sound streams and thats the beauty of pulseaudio | 07:43 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: who? they are fail | 07:43 |
| indus | vtec: this is normal behaviour | 07:43 |
| zaoul1 | indus: yes it can.. if you have a hardware mixing sound card | 07:43 |
| ADmiral | Jordan_U, ok thanks I'll try that | 07:43 |
| jeeaar | Jordan_U, so no ideas about openGL for the gma 900? | 07:43 |
| indus | zaoul1: hmm which ones are those | 07:43 |
| zaoul1 | AKA: sound blaster | 07:43 |
| zaoul1 | which is obviously better because then you don't need another app consuming resources just for audio | 07:44 |
| vtec | $ sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio | 07:44 |
| vtec | That is what was used to removepulse audio | 07:44 |
| indus | zaoul1: you are talking about a discreet sound card | 07:44 |
| vtec | I do NOT see pulseaudio under volume control | 07:44 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: sooOo.. if you wanted to 'install' .. how do you think that would go in apt? | 07:44 |
| vtec | install instead of remove? :P | 07:44 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: pulseaudio would be a process | 07:44 |
| vtec | I | 07:44 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: try it | 07:44 |
| vtec | I've tried that but it wasn't so good | 07:44 |
| === Kamilion is now known as Kami | ||
| vtec | It still does not show up under Volume Control | 07:45 |
| Jordan_U | jeeaar: Do you get the same problem running from the jaunty LiveCD? | 07:45 |
| indus | vtec: if you removed pulseaudio what will you do with paudevchooser | 07:45 |
| jeeaar | Jordan_U: Nice idea, not a possibility for me. Broken optical drive :( | 07:46 |
| vtec | Indus: I don't know what paudevchooser is | 07:46 |
| zaoul1 | indus: what message do you get when you apt-get install pulseaudio? | 07:46 |
| vtec | I'm doing apt-get install pulseaudio atm | 07:46 |
| Jordan_U | jeeaar: Do you have a flash drive? | 07:46 |
| vtec | It's installing like a normal app | 07:46 |
| zaoul1 | good | 07:46 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: ps -A | grep pulseaudio ... if it lists .. its on | 07:46 |
| vtec | Zaoul1: what do I type in terminal? ps -A | grep pulseaudio? | 07:47 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: yep | 07:47 |
| jeeaar | Jordan_U: I could try it, I'm not very privy to this ubuntu stuff - perhaps I should just try to manually install some drivers? | 07:47 |

| Jordan_U | jeeaar: If you are getting the same problem between 8.10 and 9.04 I think it's likely a configuration issue, the intel driver changed a lot from 8.10 to 9.04, so I would expect you to at least have different bugs :) | 07:49 |
| vtec | * PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions | 07:49 |
| indus | zaoul1: redhat :) | 07:49 |
| vtec | Normal? | 07:49 |
| vtec | Still ps - A | grep pulseaudio came back as no response | 07:49 |
| indus | vtec: its normal | 07:49 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: /etc/init.d/pulseaudio start | 07:49 |
| zaoul1 | ubuntu uses service right? | 07:50 |
| zaoul1 | eh | 07:50 |
| vtec | Okay I recieved the per-user session message again | 07:50 |
| zaoul1 | vtec: check ps again | 07:50 |
| indus | probably calls it anyway | 07:50 |
| zaoul1 | yea | 07:50 |
| mgmuscari | anybody with mysql/tomcat experience under ubuntu: please take a look at this and give me your two cents as to why i can't connect to mysql through tomcat | 07:50 |

| durt | zaoul, it does now (karmic) | 07:50 |
| Jordan_U | jeeaar: A liveCD is a good baseline, if it works we can look at what's different between the LiveCD and your current system, if it doesn't we know it's just a bad driver and can try other things | 07:51 |
| indus | ya from karmic i think | 07:51 |
| zaoul1 | eh, I've always been a fan of init.d scripts anyway | 07:51 |
| zaoul1 | I guess less cryptic typic | 07:51 |
| zaoul1 | typing | 07:51 |
| vtec | Zaoul1: it did not return a message | 07:51 |
| tonyyarusso | Even on systems that use the old method, the proper invocation is 'sudo invoke-rc.d pulseaudio start', not referring to the init.c directory directly. | 07:51 |

| zaoul1 | indus: lol | 07:52 |
| indus | but pulseaudio starts auto ,i never had to restart | 07:52 |
| tasslehoff | what's a nice tool to make/manage todo-lists? I use "emacs todo.txt" at the moment, but it would be nice to have something more fancy :) | 07:53 |

| pluma | Where is root's Trash folder? Protocols don't work for me because I'm running nautilus via sudo | 07:53 |
| Jordan_U | tasslehoff: vim todo.txt ;) | 07:53 |
| zaoul1 | HAHHAHAHA | 07:53 |
| Flannel | pluma: You should use gksu for GUI programs | 07:53 |
| tasslehoff | Jordan_U: touchè :) | 07:53 |
| indus | zaoul1: ya unless u messes some config files | 07:53 |
| tonyyarusso | tasslehoff: Were you hoping to stay text-based or go to something graphical? | 07:53 |
| top | ^ | 07:54 |
| pluma | Flannel: Actually, I use gksu. But that is irrelevant to the problem, because nautilus can't use protocols if it is run from a different user (no GNOME = no protocols) | 07:54 |
| jeeaar | Jordan_U: Cool, I intend to try it when I have a chance to make a usb boot key. In the meantime, is there some sudo-apt get magically reinstall graphics drivers command? | 07:54 |
| pluma | Where is root's wastebin located? | 07:54 |

| vtec | Zaoul1: I have installed pavucontrol | 07:55 |
| vtec | under output devices it says, Null Output with a mute speaker image to the right of it | 07:55 |
| Jordan_U | jeeaar: No, you can try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" which resets your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but if you haven't changed it manually then it will likely be default already | 07:55 |
| indus | sohrab: what iss the problem | 07:56 |

| zaoul1 | afallenhope: having alsa only woul dbe the best | 07:59 |
| patbam | hi folks | 07:59 |

| Bodsda | Hi, I have a server running through ICS off of my desktop machine. My router is forwarding incoming http traffic to my desktop. How can I then route the http traffic from the desktop to the server? 192.168.0.3/(192.168.1.1) route to 192.168.1.162 | 08:08 |
| SpaceGhost | Incoming traffic? | 08:08 |
| jeeaar | Jordan_U: and the log file, http://pastebin.com/d52e8d63c | 08:09 |
| dinar2 | now i have tried to install as root: sudo /media/cdrom0/Linux/install.sh /media/cdrom0/Linux/install.sh: 11: source: not found [: 670: unexpected operator | 08:09 |
| Bodsda | SpaceGhost: I have a web server, so the incoming traffic are people accessing my site | 08:09 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | any one using vpn service in ubuntu ? I need some help configuring that. thanks | 08:09 |
| SpaceGhost | sudo sh /media/cdrom0/Linux/install.sh | 08:10 |
| dinar2 | ok i run other way there is autorun fiule | 08:10 |
| ActionParsnip | dinar2: if you are root you do not need sudo | 08:10 |
| dinar2 | thank may be i will try | 08:10 |
| dinar2 | i mean sudo | 08:10 |
| Hajuu | sudo sh | 08:11 |
| Hajuu | hahah | 08:11 |
| SpaceGhost | Bodsda: You're going to need to rephrase your question | 08:11 |
| ActionParsnip | dinar2: sudo is what allows users to run commands with power, so if you already have power then you do not need sudo | 08:11 |
| SpaceGhost | dinar2: you don't need sudo | 08:11 |
| dinar2 | autorun give same error | 08:11 |
| dinar2 | i am not root | 08:11 |
| SpaceGhost | dinar: sudo means super user do, you don't need it as root. Think of root as God, does he need to ask anyone permission (excepting for Mrs.God) | 08:11 |
| goddard | does anyone know of a good assembly code / memory simulator | 08:12 |
| SpaceGhost | dinar2: you said "now i have tried to install as root:" Please try to be clear about what you've tried. | 08:12 |
| Bodsda | SpaceGhost: My router is configured to forward HTTP traffic to my desktop PC. I wish for this desktop PC to then send the traffic to my server. I cannot go directly from the router to the server because the server is gaining connection through ICS on the desktop, so different subnets. | 08:12 |
| dinar2 | ok | 08:12 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhost: mrs. god will make god sleep on the sofa if he does some crazy stuff she don' like | 08:12 |

| ^mNotIntelligent | goddard, I guess we've many in the repo | 08:13 |
| Hajuu | Bodsda: Just bridge the connections in XP | 08:13 |
| Bodsda | mgmuscari: cause I only had one crossover cable and a wifi card to get two machines on the network | 08:13 |

| tasslehoff | tonyyarusso: graphical I think | 08:13 |
| Bodsda | Hajuu: that defeats the whole purpose of being here, and the connections are already bridged | 08:13 |
| Hajuu | Bodsda: you can make a crossover into a non-crossover :) | 08:13 |
| goddard | I dont know what to search for in the repos | 08:13 |
| Hajuu | They're already bridged? | 08:13 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | goddard, can you be more specific on that...for what underlying architecture you need the assembly simulator | 08:13 |
| Hajuu | Cause ICS isnt bridging you know | 08:13 |
| Bodsda | Hajuu: I don't have 20 metres of cable | 08:14 |
| SpaceGhost | Bodsda: Did you have the server get dhcp? It works for me. | 08:14 |
| tonyyarusso | tasslehoff: I believe Tomboy has a todo list feature that may be interesting to you. | 08:14 |
| afallenhope | Can I do: sudo usermod -G video -a $USER | 08:14 |
| ActionParsnip | dinar2: check case, if you use tab you can auto complete stuff so you dont make any mistakes | 08:14 |
| tasslehoff | tonyyarusso: I'll check it out. thanks | 08:14 |
| mgmuscari | Bodsda: O_O lol if i were you i'd plug the server into the router and then run them separately... OR i would use ICS on the server and connect your desktop to the router through the server | 08:14 |
| Bodsda | SpaceGhost: no, the server is on a static | 08:14 |
| SpaceGhost | Bodsda: the ICS isn't bridging. There is a difference. | 08:14 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | goddard, okey fine...wait a min | 08:14 |
| dinar2 | i think install.sh do not work | 08:14 |
| Billiard | afallenhope: what is stopping you | 08:14 |
| goddard | just basic computer architecture something to explain the works with reference to proper tables and what have you | 08:14 |
| Bodsda | mgmuscari: If I could reach the router from the server I would | 08:14 |
| ActionParsnip | dinar2: the file name is moot | 08:14 |
| goddard | can display as hex or what ever | 08:15 |
| SpaceGhost | Bodsda: have the server get a dhcp address through the main desktop. | 08:15 |
| ActionParsnip | dinar2: the file could be called, massivepinksubmarine.saddamhussein and it would be equally fie | 08:15 |
| Bodsda | SpaceGhost: that solves nothing. IP addresses are not the issue | 08:15 |
| afallenhope | Billiard, just wanted to know if it was a valid thing | 08:15 |
| mgmuscari | Bodsda: use iptables maybe? | 08:15 |
| SpaceGhost | afallenhope: try it bud. | 08:15 |
| Hajuu | Why cant you just move the fucking router? :/ | 08:15 |
| Bodsda | mgmuscari: I got that far :) I don't know how to though | 08:15 |
| SpaceGhost | Hajuu, chill friend. | 08:15 |
| dinar2 | ok i will try other file | 08:15 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | goddard, run this: sudo apt-get update and then this: sudo apt-cache search assembler., it'll show you a whole bunch of many assemblers already available in the repo..chose the one you want | 08:16 |
| mgmuscari | Bodsda: i'd have to read the documentation to figure it out, so i guess we're at about the same spot on that problem then :) | 08:16 |
| SpaceGhost | dinar2: you're attempting to install what? | 08:16 |
| ActionParsnip | dinar2: if you use tab to complete the foilder names and file, you will take out human error | 08:16 |

| luckymurali | yes i want my user with strictly root permissions | 08:27 |
| Hajuu | You really dont want to do that Luckst0r | 08:27 |
| Hajuu | luckymurali | 08:27 |
| SpaceGhost | luckymurali: Using root for everything is higly discouraged. If you should want to use sudo su | 08:27 |
| Hajuu | linux isnt windows. | 08:27 |
| Hajuu | you cant su | 08:28 |
| Hajuu | you have to do sudo passwd root | 08:28 |
| luckymurali | but when i am using postgres my copy command says permission denied | 08:28 |
| Hajuu | and set a password | 08:28 |
| Hajuu | then you can just su | 08:28 |
| SpaceGhost | luckymurali: that will get you a root environment. | 08:28 |

| luckymurali | ok i will check | 08:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Hajuu: and you dont want that | 08:30 |

| Hajuu | lol god damn, you guys trying to help really need to track who is actually asking the questions :) | 08:31 |
| psycho_oreos | jussi01, I don't see how sudo su won't work.. I've been doing sudo su - since feisty and haven't had issues since | 08:31 |
| Hajuu | I was answering a question, not asking one. | 08:31 |
| nic1 | SpaceGhost, in ipc file in a package #include <ev.h> is included and that gives me no such file error. so wanted to know what's that | 08:31 |
| ZachK_ | Hajuu, sudo enables root...a root user itself is NOT enabled as that is VERY unwise and causes many security issues and complications | 08:31 |
| jussi01 | !wfm > psycho_oreos | 08:31 |

| d33d | ActionParsnip, the find worked - its in /home/.username/.local/share/Empathy/logs | 08:32 |
| jeffCar | Hi, I am trying out xubuntu. But the flash is not working. How do i down load the flash stuff. I was told to get the non-free... whatever that is. I could not find it in the symtem manager | 08:32 |
| ZachK_ | jeffCar, go to the Adobe site and download the .deb file | 08:32 |
| ActionParsnip | d33d: good old find eh ;) | 08:32 |
| Hajuu | jeffCar: You need to enable the universal repositories | 08:32 |
| jeffCar | hajuu how do I do that? | 08:32 |
| ActionParsnip | ZachK_: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 08:32 |
| Hajuu | I think you can do it through a menu in synaptic | 08:33 |
| Hajuu | ActionParsnip: seriously, thats the 3rd time ive seen you answer someone elses question to the wrong person. | 08:33 |
| Hajuu | It's good to help, but help the right people or its useless. | 08:33 |
| SpaceGhost | jeffcar: install everything flash, it's what I did, but the command is sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 08:33 |
| ZachK_ | ActionParsnip, I know that...but getting it from Adobe is a easier way for some newer users I have found | 08:33 |
| luckymurali | how can i give permission to other users like postgres to access my files?? | 08:33 |
| ZachK_ | ActionParsnip, i was giving an answer incase you thought i was asking one | 08:33 |
| ActionParsnip | ZachK_: possibly, theres the 64bit alpha plugin too if your ubuntu is 64bit | 08:33 |
| SpaceGhost | luckymurali: you can put them in a group or chmod the files, or a million other things. | 08:34 |
| luckymurali | please explain me I am new bie | 08:34 |
| haze | if yur tryin to get flash player yo they got a new one up there that auto installs for u | 08:34 |
| haze | the there website | 08:34 |
| luckymurali | how can i put them in group | 08:34 |
| ActionParsnip | ZachK_: i dislike the package method but its a great place to start as it usually works | 08:35 |
| SpaceGhost | using groupadd and then let that group access your files. | 08:35 |
| tonyyarusso | luckymurali: System > Administration > Users and Groups | 08:35 |
| ZachK_ | luckymurali, System -> Administration -> Users and Groups | 08:35 |
| haze | better then nothin | 08:35 |
| SpaceGhost | ZackK_ he isn't using desktop. | 08:35 |
| luckymurali | ok | 08:35 |
| ZachK_ | SpaceGhost, roger | 08:35 |

| tonyyarusso | lenovo1234: 'sudo lshw' is one way that's rather handy. | 08:42 |
| Hajuu | JerryD: You don't need to use the whole path, you can just use like 'dir/to/files' | 08:42 |
| Hajuu | JerryD | 08:42 |
| SpaceGhost | JerryD: If you're in desktop and wanted to delete a folder names, wooyea, you would type sudo rm -rf wooyeah/ | 08:42 |

| hadean | iceroot: Oo | 08:46 |
| TamOcello | not yet. | 08:46 |
| ActionParsnip | TamOcello: worth a try | 08:46 |
| SpaceGhost | TomOcello: if you install a .deb it won't show up in the menus all the time. Try running the program in terminal. | 08:46 |
| tonyyarusso | TamOcello: 'killall gnome-panel' is the command hajuu was referring too. Packages that aren't properly constructed won't necessarily create a menu item when they're installed. When this happens (as sounds likely in this case), the command 'dpkg -L packagename | grep bin' can sometimes tell you where the executable is. | 08:46 |

| david__ | SpaceGhost: the OS on the HDD is ubuntu, does the partition mount to the desk top then just open it up and drag and drop over to the memory stick? | 08:56 |
| maxwell | So in my case I ought to type, "sudo mount /dev/<partition name> /mountpoint -t ext2 -o uid=1000,rw,user"? | 08:56 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: the mount point must be a folder that exists too (ideally empty) | 08:57 |

| maxwell | ActionParsnip: Same answer. | 08:59 |
| sdakpos | i have a problem with wi-fi, after updating from Jaunty to Karmic, network manager was disconnecting my wi-fi every 10-20 seconds, i have installed WICD and now in dmesg i see that it tries authenticating but it times out.. what can be the problem? (i'm using iwl3945 module) | 08:59 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: i'd read some guides then, you have the right sort of thing, just needs fine tweaking | 09:00 |
| Hajuu | sdakpos: are you specifying the right password type and encryption method? | 09:00 |
| sdakpos | Hajuu: yes | 09:00 |
| matmo | sdakpos: wow, I've just arrive for exactly that and other wifi problems | 09:00 |
| moi | its still doesnt work , does anyone could tell me how install another web browser in command line plz ? | 09:00 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: may just need chowning | 09:00 |
| joaopinto | sdakpos, stop repeating please, and if you are using karmic this is not the right channel to ask | 09:00 |
| maxwell | Chowing? | 09:00 |
| maxwell | Does that involve a lot of chmod shit? | 09:00 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: mount it how youo did before then chown the file system to your user | 09:00 |
| TamOcello | although, this next one might be a bitch... So, 'm rocking an HP dv6-1250cl, and it's got an IDT sound card. 've looked at google's results, and have tried running 'sudo echo "options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1" >> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base ', which didn't work. Then, ' ran 'sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/sound' and put 'model=hp-m4' at the end of it, both as suggested by a thread at linux forums. A post there suggested to swap out PulseAudio for esound, and | 09:00 |
| maxwell | Haha, I totally don't know how to do that. | 09:00 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: no, chmod is a different command | 09:00 |
| gonzojive | Hajuu: http://pastebin.com/d53ade704 | 09:00 |
| maxwell | And people wonder why so many people use windoze. | 09:00 |
| maxwell | lol | 09:00 |
| Hajuu | Well, if its trying to auth and isnt able, its pretty definately a different combo of encryption type and auth type | 09:00 |
| _JacK_ | totem plays movie, cpu occupies less than 5%, the whole system load very lightly, but it is very bad effect, why? | 09:01 |
| Ububegin | when I ran, sudo ldconfig .. all types of old links came out on screen.. how can i modiy ldconfig file.. where is it | 09:01 |
| muri_one | sdakpos: #ubuntu+1 | 09:01 |
| sdakpos | joaopinto: sorry i wanted to fix a mistace i did there in text... and on #ubuntu+1 there is noone to help.. | 09:01 |
| maxwell | ActionParsnip: Do you mind explaining to me how to chown something though? | 09:01 |
| sdakpos | mistake* | 09:01 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: if you mount the partition as you did you can then run: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /mount/point and you will be mde the owner of the data | 09:01 |
| joaopinto | sdakpos, asking here will not improve that, your problem is driver and release specific, you will be wasting ppl time here | 09:01 |
| Hajuu | and what makes you think its not setting that var? | 09:01 |
| matmo | my rt2860 worked for wpa up until 3 wks ago when I updated the kernel. Since then I've been away during which it only worked for open connections. Now back home and next to get wpa working again. | 09:01 |
| maxwell | Oh, crazy simple tehre. | 09:01 |
| sdakpos | joaopinto: okay, sorry | 09:01 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: in linux it usually is | 09:02 |
| matmo | s/next/need | 09:02 |
| Hajuu | matmo: is it WPA1/2, is it TKIP or whatever or PSK | 09:02 |
| maxwell | SWEET JESUSLY AWESOME! | 09:02 |
| matmo | Hajuu: wpa1, tkip | 09:02 |
| maxwell | This success is better than sex! | 09:02 |
| TamOcello | whee better than sex! | 09:03 |
| Hajuu | and thats the combo you were using before that was working? | 09:03 |
| Hajuu | like definately? | 09:03 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: simple stuff huh | 09:03 |
| matmo | yes, I have not changed my wifi router config in over a year | 09:03 |
| Hajuu | Ok, and to be clear, you HAVE tried retyping the password, right? | 09:03 |

| Guest36628 | i've got a question... anyone know a command to list all installed applications? i have 2 ubuntu partitions and instead of looking for everything i need, i would like to maybe make a list with "command > $HOME/Desktop/programlist.txt" then just "sudo apt-get install "all listed programs in list" | 09:03 |
| maxwell | ActionParsnip: Yes, but I still look forward to the day that such shit is automatically done for me, and/or can be easily done with less than 18 clicks of a mouse. | 09:04 |
| Guest36628 | anyone know of a way i can do that? | 09:04 |
| antik | ne one here running backtrack 4 or ne version?? | 09:04 |
| Hajuu | Matmo: If you havent changed your config in over a year, how were you connecting with an open connection? | 09:04 |
| zaoul1 | Anyone use terminator? Why would I not be able to save the profile? IE: fg/bg colors | 09:04 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: oh definately, we didnt used to have automount | 09:04 |
| gonzojive | Hajuu: refresh that pastebin page and you can see me echoing $PATH | 09:04 |
| matmo | I was away from home | 09:04 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: its getting better all the time | 09:04 |
| mordocai | Okay, so i've figured out that when opening a .iso that was made by using brasero to copy a CD, it won't mount correctly using the GNOME GUI. However, it will mount perfectly using command line. Anyone know why this would be? | 09:04 |
| sdakpos | Hajuu: i have the same problem and i did, i also tried wpa_supplicant and configuring wlan0 in /etc/network/interaces | 09:04 |
| SpaceGhost | antik: the people at backtrack have a nice IRC channel for discussion that. | 09:04 |
| gonzojive | i don't know what's going on but after I execute that script it's like nothing happened | 09:04 |
| SpaceGhost | discussing* | 09:04 |
| maxwell | ActionParsnip: Slowly, veeery slowly. | 09:05 |
| gonzojive | a line very much like that was in my .profile but it did not take hold so I'm wondering what's going on | 09:05 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwell: well they dont have the billions that certain software giants have | 09:05 |
| Hajuu | gonzojive: have you tried running it as root? | 09:05 |
| Hajuu | Not sure if that will help | 09:06 |
| _JacK_ | what performance does ubuntu run on arm9? | 09:06 |
| DeI2anGeD | so, I haven't used linux since like, Slackware 9. and after a bit of setting up, Gnome-Do and Cairo Dock are my absolutely favoritest things ever. easily. | 09:06 |
| gonzojive | Hajuu: it works when I just type the command into the shell | 09:06 |
| antik | spaceghost , lol k but no ones on there channel | 09:06 |
| gonzojive | but when I execute that file it doesn't work | 09:06 |
| Hajuu | matmo: try using WPA2 :) | 09:06 |
| Hajuu | PSK | 09:06 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: depends on config | 09:07 |
| SpaceGhost | Del2anGeD: I'm lost, are you having a problem or just chatting? | 09:07 |
| Hajuu | gonzojive: not sure then sorry :( | 09:07 |
| Hajuu | DeI2anGeD? | 09:07 |
| matmo | Hajuu: can't do that, got many wifi devices and not all support wpa2 | 09:07 |
| Hajuu | Sup? | 09:07 |
| _JacK_ | ActionParsnip: what config? | 09:07 |
| DeI2anGeD | No problem, I was expressing my love of Ubuntu's ease and a few <3-able apps. | 09:07 |
| iceroot | scripts from the ubuntu-wikis are GPL? | 09:07 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: you have to source the script. a script cannot modify the parent's environment. | 09:08 |
| Hajuu | Oh fine, be like that :o | 09:08 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: like games, if you set the graphics to the higest resolution with the highest colours and the highest detail, it will run slower than the same pc and same game but on the lowest colours on the lowest resolution with no detail, wont it? | 09:08 |
| antik | ne one running there distro through vmware?? | 09:08 |
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: how do you source the script? | 09:08 |
| Hajuu | antik: I am. | 09:08 |
| ActionParsnip | !anyone | antik | 09:08 |
| ubottu | antik: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 09:08 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: . script (a dot) | 09:08 |
| gonzojive | one character! | 09:09 |
| maxwell | Thank you all, I need to sleep though. Good night! | 09:09 |
| gonzojive | beautiful, prince_jammys | 09:09 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: and this is the same for operating systems, they can be configured different, so the question has infinite possibilities | 09:09 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: in bash, you can also use 'source' instead of the dot. but not in sh | 09:09 |
| Hajuu | gonzojive: what was the problem? | 09:09 |
| matmo | Hajuu: on second thoughts, just discovered my router supports mixed mode wpa/2. I will give it a go, thanks for the suggestion... but how do I config wpa/2 on Jaunty? I'm about to add nm but wondered why it was excluded? | 09:09 |
| Hajuu | I'm not entirely sure to be honest. | 09:10 |
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: what's the relation between SH and BASH/CSH | 09:10 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: that reads the commands into the current shell, affecting variables, the present working directory (if you cd'd) etc. | 09:10 |
| gonzojive | Hajuu: I didn't source the script | 09:10 |
| Hajuu | haha | 09:10 |
| Hajuu | ah. | 09:10 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: bash has more features. ubuntu's sh is more portable. csh is a totally different shell that isn't used all that much any more. | 09:11 |
| Hajuu | Oh well. I am out. DeI2anGeD, you're a slut. That is all. | 09:11 |
| _JacK_ | ActionParsnip: ubuntu on ARM9 and 512M memory, test playing movie | 09:11 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: for example a system running KDE will react significantly slower than one running say fluxbox or lxde but its still an arm cpu | 09:12 |
| matmo | Hajuu: before I go ripping into config files is your wpa2 suggestion a guess or based on experience? | 09:12 |
| infid | is it hard to install firefox 3.5 in ubuntu and is it stable? | 09:12 |
| _JacK_ | ActionParsnip: running gnome desktop | 09:12 |
| antik | ubottu , lol gothcha,, should i run my distro as "root" all the time cause my other username doesnt let me run a few programs properly?? | 09:12 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:12 |
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: so sh is a separate shell? | 09:12 |
| mordocai | infid: I think it's in the repository(apt-cache search firefox), and yes it's stable in my experience. | 09:12 |
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: thanks | 09:13 |
| SpaceGhost | Lol at antik :P | 09:13 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: yes. it's a generic name that's supposed to be present in any POSIX system. | 09:13 |
| ZachK_ | hello "team" | 09:13 |
| mordocai | infid: confirmation: just apt-get install firefox-3.5 | 09:13 |
| ZachK_ | anyone need help? | 09:13 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: I'd say with the ram it will run pretty well, there seems to be a few reviews on youtube and i'm sure some geeks will have benchmarked it some place | 09:13 |
| infid | mordocai: ok, should i uninstall firefox 3.0 first? | 09:13 |
| antik | spaceghost, ha my first time using linux,, "backtrack" | 09:14 |
| SpaceGhost | ActionParsnip: You're funny that you use youtube for legit reviews. | 09:14 |
| ZachK_ | ActionParsnip, yeah...youtube is ok but not for reviews | 09:14 |
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: so if I change something in my .profile, should I just execute ". ./.profile" in home? | 09:14 |
| mordocai | infid: I didn't. I have both installed... just run firefox-3.5 when i want 3.5, and firefox when i want whatever the stable version is | 09:14 |
| SpaceGhost | Antik: They have a backtrack IRC, it seems like they might be a lot more helpful. | 09:14 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhost: its good enough, i'm not under oath or nuthin ;) | 09:14 |
| infid | k | 09:15 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhost: and it was definately the other guy | 09:15 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: sure. that's what happens when you login (btw, that's where you should stick the PATH thing) | 09:15 |
| SpaceGhost | ActionParsnip: I took the hypocratic oath. | 09:15 |
| BigWookie | hey is there a way when I copy a folder to replace symlinks with copies of the files? | 09:15 |
| antik | spaceghost,, ha k ill check it again,, last time no one was on | 09:15 |
| _JacK_ | realplay for arm ? | 09:15 |

| SpaceGhost | ActionParsnip: You lucky bastard :P | 09:16 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhost: definately :) | 09:16 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: mplayer i'd imagine | 09:16 |
| gonzojive | SpaceGhost: my pet peeve is run-on sentences | 09:16 |
| SpaceGhost | gonzojive: Yes,, I bet........ but do you like sentences,,, like this??? | 09:17 |
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: cool, that's where I originally had it. I was calling sh .profile and having this problem | 09:17 |
| _JacK_ | ActionParsnip: only totem on my ubuntu | 09:17 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: the only catch is your PATH will keep growing if you keep sourcing .profile, since you keep doing PATH=foo:$PATH | 09:17 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: you can install it if you wish. if totem is sufficient then use it | 09:18 |
| _JacK_ | use totem to play movie, but it is very bad effect | 09:18 |
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: ah, that's some catch. so I suppose I could just login again, or is there some other way to reset the environment and simulate a login for the purpose of all new terminals? | 09:19 |
| SpaceGhost | _Jack_ Mplayer is the win, try it. Props again to ActionParsnip. | 09:19 |
| _JacK_ | my ubuntu runs on arm, not on x86 | 09:19 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhost: daddy mplayer always wins | 09:19 |
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: when i open a new terminal the .profile changes don't take effect it seems like | 09:19 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: try: apt-cache search mplayer | 09:19 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: .profile is only read when you log in. .bashrc is sourced with every interactive session (but don't put PATH there) | 09:20 |
| SpaceGhost | _jack_ the internet just confirmed mplayer to work with arm | 09:20 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: it's not a big deal. you can log in and out if it bugs you | 09:20 |
| === The is now known as Guest63859 | ||
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: not a big deal, just wondering what the pros do | 09:21 |
| _JacK_ | ActionParsnip: "apt-cache search mplayer" can get one list, but is it on arm? | 09:21 |
| BigWookie | hey is there a way when I copy a folder to replace symlinks with copies of the files? | 09:21 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: set PATH the way you want in your current shell, and wait until you logout and you won't deal with it any more. | 09:22 |
| Hajuu | _JacK_: You can always use um | 09:22 |
| Hajuu | apt-get source -autobuild mplayer | 09:23 |
| Hajuu | or something | 09:23 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: yes that command and your entire system will ONLY show you arm stuff | 09:23 |
| Jordan_U | BigWookie: cp -rs source destination | 09:23 |
| Hajuu | I forget the option, check the manual | 09:23 |
| ActionParsnip | _JacK_: just like my 64bit desktop will ONLY show me 64bit stuff | 09:23 |
| SpaceGhost | _Jack_: I just said, it works on arm. | 09:23 |
| BigWookie | Jordan_U: not enough space on device | 09:23 |
| SpaceGhost | >_Jack_ anything you can see, works with arm. | 09:23 |
| gonzojive | prince_jammys: i'm curious how the execution of .profile at login affects terminals that are started a long ways from then. where do they get their original environment? | 09:23 |
| jeffCar | anyone know what the big feature will be for the next version of ubuntu? | 09:24 |
| zaoul1 | Anyone use terminator? WHY can I not save the profile? this makes no sense.. .conf/terminator/config is writeable and terminator -d shows it finds it.. wtffffff | 09:24 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: you mean where does stuff like PATH and LANG get set originally? | 09:24 |
| Hajuu | jeffCar: Porn, built right into the interface! | 09:24 |

| patbam | ActionParsnip: looks like i passed that memtest with not problems | 09:25 |

| MickJohns | hey | 09:29 |
| MickJohns | does anybody know any apache conf files that store the location of htaccess | 09:29 |
| SpaceGhost | jeffcar: the way you worded it, it was kind of ambiguous. | 09:29 |
| Jordan_U | BigWookie: When using --recursive and --symbolic link together you need to use absolute rather than relative paths | 09:30 |
| nordhri | the error is: Error opening file '/media/disk/raven_shine.png': Read-only file system | 09:30 |
| SpaceGhost | MickJohns, you place .htaccess files in the folder, I do not believe there is a place in the apache conf. | 09:30 |
| nordhri | yet I was able to copy and paste there less than half hour ago | 09:30 |
| MickJohns | well im looking for the location of htaccess | 09:30 |
| MickJohns | its not my server | 09:30 |
| Hajuu | MickJohns: .htaccess files are not configured like that. Every directories .htaccess files are iteratively applied down the directory train | 09:30 |
| Hajuu | in realtime | 09:30 |
| Boohbah | MickJohns: that would be your DocumentRoot | 09:30 |

| SpaceGhost | nordhri: look at your fstab. | 09:33 |
| nordhri | SpaceGhost, how? | 09:33 |
| ActionParsnip | !fsck | nordhri | 09:33 |
| ubottu | nordhri: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 09:33 |
| SpaceGhost | sudo vi fstab | 09:34 |
| ActionParsnip | nordhri: you want to run it manually as its not the system partition | 09:34 |
| Jordan_U | jeffCar: There is no separate "enterprise" version of Ubuntu | 09:34 |
| prince_jammys | gonzojive: yes. there are files related to PAM that will set your LANG and such | 09:34 |
| nordhri | ActionParsnip, I normally need to mount it before I can use it... a pain in the butt.. | 09:34 |
| ActionParsnip | nordhri: yes that is absolutely normal | 09:35 |
| jeffCar | I need a version of linux for a my father who is 76. I want a version that has a really easy interface. I thought maybe someone compiled a modified ubuntu version . | 09:35 |
| ActionParsnip | nordhri: you cannot access raw block devices without them being mounted | 09:35 |
| SpaceGhost | Nordhri: what is the filesystem you are mounted. | 09:35 |
| Jordan_U | jeffCar: What does he normally do with the computer? | 09:35 |
| SpaceGhost | mordhri: sorry for poor fail. What is the filesystem on the other drive? | 09:35 |
| nordhri | my maindrive is the current Ubuntu | 09:36 |
| nordhri | not Koala yet | 09:36 |
| SpaceGhost | jeffcar: how literate is he? What does he do? A possible choice is to create read only file system after you configure and install everything and then let him us it. | 09:36 |
| jeffCar | Normaly... well to be honest, he yells at it. kicks it sometimes, and once through it out. But I took it out of the trash. had to get the banna out of the monitor vents, but it was ok. | 09:36 |
| SpaceGhost | nordhri: I mean the other drive, as in other and not main. | 09:36 |
| nordhri | SpaceGhost, how can I check to be sure? | 09:37 |
| SpaceGhost | jeffcar: why do you want him to use a computer if he tends to hate on them? | 09:37 |
| jeffCar | Jordan_U, SpaceGhost , I need something with big icons on it and simple to use. | 09:37 |
| SpaceGhost | sudo fdisk -l | 09:37 |
| _JacK_ | mplayer is not available for ubuntu 9.0.4? | 09:37 |
| SpaceGhost | jeffcar: ubuntu with the whole accessibility thingy, Orca or something. | 09:37 |
| SmokeyD1 | hey people. I am using ufw on ubuntu hardy heron LTS. Is there a way to automatically have ufw detect the local network and use that as a variable in the rules? | 09:37 |
| ActionParsnip | jeffCar: yes but what does he use? email? internet? games? 3d rendering? sond composition? | 09:37 |
| jeffCar | he wants e-mail and want so use video links to my sister and her kids. | 09:37 |
| SpaceGhost | jeffcar: use a read only filesystem and have him use webmail. | 09:38 |
| jeffCar | what is orca? | 09:38 |
| zEpp | Is there a reason for why I have problems with Windows on my dell laptop that came with Ubuntu? Is there some sort of hardware difference? | 09:38 |
| SpaceGhost | Jeffcar: you know him best, so set it up for him. Making icons big isn't a problem and the UI is east to change. | 09:38 |
| ActionParsnip | !orca | 09:38 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about orca | 09:38 |
| nordhri | SpaceGhost, http://paste.ubuntu.com/298067/ | 09:38 |
| ActionParsnip | !info orca | 09:38 |
| ubottu | Package orca does not exist in jaunty | 09:38 |
| mobi-sheep | !windows | zEpp | 09:39 |
| ubottu | zEpp: For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents | 09:39 |
| ActionParsnip | zEpp: no, you just need windows drivers for your hardware, windows support is in ##windows | 09:39 |
| jeffCar | SpaceGhost, i looked at Gos linux, its good but its no UBUNTU | 09:39 |
| mobi-sheep | zEpp: You're missing drivers, me think. Check Hardware Devices and see ##windows | 09:39 |
| zEpp | ActionParsnip: my problem isn't with not having the drivers. it's that .exe files don't work lol | 09:39 |
| nordhri | SpaceGhost, line 13 is the disk in question | 09:39 |
| jeffCar | SpaceGhost, but i like the interface | 09:39 |
| ActionParsnip | zEpp: if they dont work in windows, its not an ubuntu issue | 09:40 |
| mobi-sheep | zEpp, ActionParsnip: Turn on your file extension. It's not the .exe. >_> | 09:40 |
| zEpp | ActionParsnip: my question was if the hardware for some reason could only use ubuntu and thats why i'd have problems with windows | 09:40 |
| mobi-sheep | Clever trojan horse slipping in. Poor lamb, you're toasted. | 09:40 |
| SpaceGhost | nordhri sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /wherever/the/hellyouwant | 09:40 |
| ActionParsnip | zEpp: hardware is OS independant, it could have come with BSD and sit would still be the same hardware | 09:41 |
| SpaceGhost | jeffcar: you can make it suitable to your father. Pimp it for him man. | 09:41 |
| lumis | I know this is probable a fairly dumb question, but is there a way to reduce the bitrate of a CDA file being burnt to an audio disk, the final aim being to get more tracks onto a standard audio CD? (NOT an mp3 CD) | 09:41 |
| jeffCar | SpaceGhost, how? | 09:41 |
| Jordan_U | lumis: No | 09:41 |
| Billiard | lumis: nope | 09:41 |
| SpaceGhost | !audacity | lumis | 09:41 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about audacity | 09:41 |
| nordhri | SpaceGhost, can you be a bit more specific.. I am noob at this side of ubuntu | 09:42 |
| _JacK_ | what else movie player on ubuntu for arm? | 09:42 |
| === jeffCar is now known as my12inchdisk | ||
| mobi-sheep | !player | _JacK_ | 09:42 |
| ubottu | _JacK_: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS2 (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based). Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs | 09:42 |
| ActionParsnip | lumis: you couldmake the songs play faster, it'll sound like chipmunks but you will get more tracks on | 09:42 |
| Billiard | haha | 09:42 |
| lumis | ActionParsnip: Not really what I was going for ;) | 09:42 |
| ltspadmin | jo | 09:42 |
| lumis | SpaceGhost: Could you elaborate? | 09:42 |
| SpaceGhost | jeffcar: maybe you could try removing the bars on the top and bottom and making a single workspace and then making two icons on the desktop Internet, and Email. Ideally the Email icon would be a link to his webmail. | 09:42 |
| ltspadmin | hi | 09:43 |
| my12inchdisk | SpaceGhost, how do I modify it? | 09:43 |
| Jordan_U | lumis: put half of the songs on the right channel and half on the left, use only one earbud at a time | 09:43 |
| SpaceGhost | lumis, the only possibility I forsee is using a audio editor and compressing. | 09:43 |
| Jordan_U | lumis: :) | 09:43 |
| nordhri | SpaceGhost, not sure where to put it.. when you say /where/ever/the/hell/you/want | 09:43 |
| SpaceGhost | jordan_U LOL! | 09:43 |
| Billiard | lmao | 09:43 |

| Legacy2kkkk | MSlinux LOL | 09:47 |
| ActionParsnip | there was lindows for a while | 09:47 |
| SpaceGhost | I'm crying on the inside now. | 09:47 |
| SpaceGhost | There is Lixta | 09:47 |
| my12inchdisk | whats a lixta? | 09:48 |
| Jordan_U | ActionParsnip: http://kevincarmony.com/linspire_videos/LindowsRock.swf | 09:48 |
| SpaceGhost | Hell if I know | 09:48 |
| ActionParsnip | In July 2004, Microsoft offered to settle with Lindows.[6] As part of this licensing settlement, Microsoft paid an estimated $20 million US, and Lindows transferred the Lindows trademark to Microsoft and changed their name to Linspire. | 09:48 |
| SpaceGhost | !lixta | my12inchdisk | 09:48 |

| ltspadmin | when i boot the thin client through floppy i am getting an error message chroot: cannot execute /usr/bin/getltscfg: | 09:50 |

| Legacy2kkkk | ? | 09:51 |
| Snicksie | SpaceGhost, there's no option to get it at all, so would it be due to the new version or due to a limit, that's what i'm wondering? ;) | 09:51 |
| SpaceGhost | Wez: Yes it does look at it. | 09:51 |
| my12inchdisk | bye and thanks for all the help. | 09:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Legacy2kkkk: i always say yo yo yo | 09:51 |

| MenZa | Wez: Nope. They do ShipIt CDs, though. | 09:51 |
| Legacy2kkkk | lol | 09:51 |
| MenZa | !shipit > Wez | 09:52 |
| SpaceGhost | Snicksie: you can fill out a request form, not the normal kind, the kind where you atually type out why you deserve more CDs. | 09:52 |

| my12inchdisk | Remember Friends don't let friends use Microsoft linux. | 09:52 |
| Legacy2kkkk | what is microsoft linux? | 09:52 |
| ActionParsnip | my12inchdisk: bit hard when all my servers run it ;) | 09:52 |
| SpaceGhost | It's linux, raped and beaten until it submits to windows selfish demands. | 09:53 |
| my12inchdisk | Really your servers run microsoft linux... sorry if I knew I would have typed slower. | 09:53 |
| insmod | Bluey1: get cheese going? | 09:53 |
| Legacy2kkkk | that sucks | 09:53 |
| Legacy2kkkk | why would ms make a linux disto? | 09:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Legacy2kkkk: they havent, and if they did they cant sell it so probably wont | 09:54 |
| my12inchdisk | yea legacy, they even put in the blue lock up screen so it would not look better then windows. | 09:54 |
| SpaceGhost | I'm sort of wondering if this is a support channel or a chat channel, can someone enlighten me? | 09:54 |
| RhysM | Hi guys I have been using ubuntu as a user for 4 years now and after a heated debate about the productive uses of an open source environment i have been allowed to create a replica of our current working system using open source software. Can anyone with experience of this help me with selection of packages? | 09:54 |
| lightpriest__ | what is the proper way to request a package rebuild from source in launchpad? asking a question? | 09:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Legacy2kkkk: anyway its oftopic here, please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic | 09:54 |
| Legacy2kkkk | true lol | 09:54 |
| Snicksie | SpaceGhost, whatever link i click, it gives this text: You have already received our maximum number of allowed shipments. Please download the CD image and record it yourself. | 09:55 |
| ActionParsnip | lightpriest__: i'd use brainstorm | 09:55 |
| my12inchdisk | SpaceGhost, I need support on how to chat. | 09:55 |
| my12inchdisk | LOL | 09:55 |
| ActionParsnip | lightpriest__: have you not found a ppa for it? | 09:55 |
| lightpriest__ | ActionParsnip, brainstorm isn't a place to raise ideas? :) | 09:55 |
| my12inchdisk | ok, bye everyone. thank for the help. | 09:55 |
| ActionParsnip | lightpriest__: yeah, an idea to compile a package, if its inappropriate it will be moved to the right place | 09:55 |
| lightpriest__ | I've added a utility to xmltv project and I want the package in the repos to have it... | 09:56 |
| lightpriest__ | kinda like a "refresh"? :P | 09:56 |
| ActionParsnip | !contribute | 09:56 |
| lightpriest__ | I'm familiar with the terminology :) | 09:56 |
| ubottu | To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate | 09:56 |
| lightpriest__ | I'm not | 09:56 |
| insmod | <RhysM>there are distros that do that | 09:56 |
| lightpriest__ | ok :) | 09:56 |
| RhysM | insmod can you suggest one? | 09:56 |
| insmod | <RhysM>there job is to mimic it for other computers | 09:56 |
| SpaceGhost | Snicksie, I'm getting the same message. I've gotten one cd. I think it's just a slight burp. | 09:57 |
| insmod | <RhysM>they list them on distrowatch | 09:57 |
| Snicksie | SpaceGhost, so most likely due to the new version, all right ;) | 09:57 |
| SpaceGhost | I'm thinking it's a bit of that and the fact that they send out a lot of CDs. | 09:58 |
| RhysM | I need all the obvious stuff open source but what about alternatives to citrix? | 09:58 |
| ltspadmin | hi | 09:58 |
| ActionParsnip | RhysM: there is a citrix client for linux | 09:58 |

| SpaceGhost | Hey Itspadmin, don't do that. | 09:59 |
| ActionParsnip | RhysM: well citrix is a proprietary product, you may be able to buy the server software for linux | 09:59 |
| SpaceGhost | !patience | Itspadmin | 09:59 |
| ubottu | Itspadmin: 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. | 09:59 |

| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhost: used it agaes ago | 10:01 |

| homers | Ciao a tutti XD | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhost: doesnt do sametime, carrier does irc and sametime so is perfect | 10:01 |
| insmod | <SpaceGhost> fucku | 10:01 |
| insmod | <RhysM>and i answered | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | keep it civil | 10:02 |
| SpaceGhost | Whoa there friend. Maybe you need to go ask your parents to regulate your internet usage. | 10:02 |
| RhysM | isn;t the aim of linux to promote open source? well thats exactly what i am trying to do | 10:02 |
| vox | insmod: leave the attitude and the language outside. | 10:02 |
| homers | buongiorno c'e qulkuno che parla italiano? | 10:02 |
| znh | Hello. Is there an alternative way to display icons on the desktop? Like in a circle or some other fancy something | 10:02 |
| RhysM | And by finding the name of components/software to use i can then go away and read up and figure it out | 10:02 |
| SpaceGhost | RhysM: maybe your approach isn't the best? I'm not sure I understand. | 10:02 |
| insmod | <vox>no t THe vox | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | RhysM: unfortunately citrix as far as I can see is only offering presentation servers to windows platforms | 10:02 |

| insmod | <vox>not THevox | 10:03 |
| ActionParsnip | RhysM: you can use X forwarding over ssh to run the app on the big central server but show the app on the client system (much like citrix) | 10:03 |
| SpaceGhost | insmod, stop being a juvenile. | 10:03 |
| insmod | <SpaceGhost>what are you? 12 | 10:04 |
| vox | insmod: you can either be civil or you can leave. your call. | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | RhysM: you can get the same under windows with putty and xming | 10:04 |
| SpaceGhost | insmod, seriously don't piggyback on my rebuttal I already called you a young child. | 10:04 |
| znh | vox, you have my vote for the latter | 10:04 |
| RhysM | I have already setup a sendmail gateway for the corporate email system for alias management so I'm not a complete newbie but just wanted best practice advice before i go with the first product a google search shows up | 10:04 |

| RhysM | Thanks action i will look into that x forwarding method then | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | RhysM: yeah simply have the xming running which will give you an x server, if the clients are linux then you already have this | 10:06 |
| mobi-sheep | ActionParsnip: Yeah, but somebody else pulled the trigger. That's one ammo we'll never recover. :( | 10:06 |
| RhysM | and if not will putty do the trick? | 10:07 |
| === acuster is now known as avc_working | ||
| === MadMax is now known as MaxSid | ||
| ActionParsnip | RhysM: you can then run: putty -X user@server or ssh -X user@server and log in, when you run gui apps (like gedit / oowriter etc) they will be executed on the server but the graphical bit will be on the client system | 10:07 |
| SpaceGhost | Xforwarding through ssh woo. | 10:07 |
| RhysM | ahhh right i understand | 10:07 |
| purplefool | in my system menu under administration there is no 'hardware drivers' list. how would i go about re-entering that in the menu? | 10:07 |
| ActionParsnip | RhysM: sure putty is fine but you will need xming installed and running as windows does not have an x server to stick the apps on | 10:07 |

| ActionParsnip | RhysM: those 2950s are niiiice | 10:09 |

| purplefool | ActionParsnip, hmmm...did that an got a lot of 'xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0"."...6 times...what does that mean? | 10:11 |
| ltspadmin | I rebuilt the ltsp client environment. The following command to rebuild the ltsp client environment allows the client to find the nbi.img file. | 10:11 |
| ltspadmin | Code: | 10:11 |
| ltspadmin | sudo ltsp-build-client --arch i386 | 10:11 |
| ltspadmin | Unfortunately, after the client gets its IP address, etc., via DHCP and the server transmits the nbi.img file (actually the file linked to by nbi.img) to the client, the client hesitates for a few minutes and drops into the BusyBox shell. Above the shell prompt, I observed an error message that said Error: Connect: Connection refused. That error message was followed by problems with mounting and so on. So although the architecture problem has been cor | 10:11 |
| FloodBot3 | ltspadmin: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 10:11 |
| ltspadmin | rected, the clients still don't boot. Up to now I haven't found any solution to the "Connection refused" error. Still looking. LTSP shouldn't be this hard to install. | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | purplefool: i get that too, not sure, app still runs though right | 10:12 |
| vox | codeFiend: is the dhcp server sending the default gateway? | 10:12 |
| codeFiend | yes | 10:12 |
| codeFiend | vox: that is, I assume so. I didn't set the gateway manually, but ifconfig shows one | 10:12 |

| ActionParsnip | purplefool: jockey is the hardware app | 10:13 |

| kelohippi | why does my clean install of ubuntu 9.04 say "Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded." when trying to run it? | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | !info jockey-gtk | 10:13 |

| ubottu | Itspadmin: 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. | 10:13 |
| vox | codeFiend: ifconfig shows it.. how? | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | kelohippi: did you run the cd verifier? | 10:13 |
| purplefool | ActionParsnip, oh...that's good to know...but i still have no hardware driver window or menu entry | 10:13 |
| kelohippi | ActionParsnip: i did | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | purplefool: you should use alacarte to edit the menu to put that app command back in, thats all i know | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | purplefool: if you reinstall it, is the menu item reinstated? | 10:14 |
| kelohippi | ActionParsnip: but it is weird it was verified cause when i burned the dvd it gave some error in last bits it was writing | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | kelohippi: then all i can suggest are boot options | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | !bootoptions | kelohippi | 10:15 |
| ubottu | kelohippi: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 10:15 |
| codeFiend | vox: maybe not... i'm not at that machine right now... but on mac it shows it in network settings, so i'd assume dhcp server sends it | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | kelohippi: errors aint good | 10:15 |
| purplefool | ActionParsnip, no it wasn't. i was working this page: http://tan-com.com/posts/technology/fix-ubuntu-904-ati-driver-issue and got to the very end where i needed the menu and it is not there. | 10:15 |
| codeFiend | vox: I think i thought about ifconfig because I used that to check whether I even got an ip address assigned | 10:16 |
| codeFiend | vox: sorry, got mixed up | 10:16 |
| vox | codeFiend: when you get to the machine, type "sudo route", then look for an entry with the G flag | 10:17 |
| vox | codeFiend: if that's not set, it's not getting the default gateway from dhcp for some reason | 10:17 |
| codeFiend | vox: ok, I will try that | 10:18 |
| codeFiend | vox: thanks for the advice. | 10:18 |
| vox | codeFiend: no probs | 10:18 |
| codeFiend | I'll probably be here tomorrow night with lots of stupid questions if that doesn't work :) | 10:18 |
| vox | codeFiend: thats cool, it's what we're here for :) | 10:19 |

| Xtreme_Great | He wants mine... He's too small to listen and settle down for a new nick... :) | 10:25 |

| infidel2s | i have a Dell inspiron e1505 notebook with ubuntu 9.04 and wifi isnt working, just the wired ethernet (and they're on the same internal card). is there anything special i have to do to get wifi working? | 10:28 |
| Xtreme_Great | I'll get a real good beating from mom if she knows I screwed up the computer... | 10:28 |
| SpaceGhost | It was a joke obviously, as you'd notice the nature of the comments. | 10:28 |
| linny | whos will robinson ? | 10:28 |
| vox | SpaceGhost: seriously, dont do that | 10:28 |
| SpaceGhost | Well, maybe you could use logmein and remote control it. | 10:28 |
| MenZa | SpaceGhost: Please don't. Joke or not, some people may run it. | 10:28 |
| SpaceGhost | sorry vox. | 10:28 |
| MenZa | SpaceGhost: Humour doesn't travel well across the 'tubes. | 10:28 |
| Flannel | SpaceGhost: I don't care. Don't joke about that here. Heck, this is a support channel, you shouldn't be joking a whole lot here anyway. | 10:28 |
| SpaceGhost | my god, seriously? | 10:28 |
| Flannel | SpaceGhost: Yes. | 10:28 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhost: very | 10:28 |
| Xtreme_Great | What does it do anyway? | 10:28 |
| MenZa | Xtreme_Great: It removes your root partition - i.e. all your system files. | 10:28 |
| MenZa | Xtreme_Great: And breaks your system quite badly. | 10:28 |
| Xtreme_Great | MenZa: On Linux right? | 10:29 |
| vox | ...breaks? | 10:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Xtreme_Great: emphasis on ALL | 10:29 |
| MenZa | Correct. | 10:29 |
| Rohirrim | without asking any questions | 10:29 |
| MenZa | vox: Well, break => makes unusable. | 10:29 |
| linny | infidel2s: i would googlw up about the particular wifi card/chipset you have then go to ubuntu forums youll find somthing there | 10:29 |
| SpaceGhost | I didn't know people were that inept. Lawl. I tend to look up any command I'm given, but I can't expect anyone else to do that. | 10:29 |
| MenZa | SpaceGhost: The only medium I can think of where humour does well on teh internets is through pictures of cats with mildly humourous captions. | 10:29 |
| MenZa | SpaceGhost: It's not a matter of ineptness, it's a matter of people in here trusting others. | 10:30 |
| SpaceGhost | MenZa: I completely agree, except not really. | 10:30 |
| Xtreme_Great | infidel2s: Download, compile and install the compat-wireless source package. That should work. If it doesn't, I'm not here... :) | 10:30 |
| Blank__ | MenZa, do i know you from somewhere? :p | 10:30 |
| Blank__ | (ot i know) | 10:30 |
| MenZa | Not as far as I know. And, as you pointed out yourself, offtopic. :) | 10:31 |
| vox | SpaceGhost: 99% of the people who come here don't know any better. suggesting someone use it, in any context, isnt really A Good Idea. | 10:31 |
| Xtreme_Great | Guys, I have this cool new program, Megahal. | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | personally i think their should be an alias by default in .bashrc so it doesnt do anything | 10:31 |
| infidel2s | Xtreme_Great ok i'll try that, otherwise do you think ndiswrapper might work? | 10:31 |
| SpaceGhost | Okay, I kinda fucking got it guys. | 10:31 |
| Rohirrim | I have a question, I have installed ubuntu on a partition (small, of 20 GB) and have vista on one partition and two other partition with vista, But now I wanna remove vista, so is it ok that i can use the other three partitions (after removing vista) in ubuntu with keeping the file system of those partitions as NTFS? | 10:32 |
| Xtreme_Great | infidel2s: ndiswrapper should work, but you won't have many features (like rfmon mode). That would depend if you're into wireless hacking. Otherwise, just go for ndiswrapper. | 10:32 |
| patbam | ActionParsnip: i tried booting a live fedora cd and it hung :P the fates are agin' me | 10:32 |
| ActionParsnip | patbam: very interesting, is your cpu 64bit? | 10:33 |
| patbam | ActionParsnip: yes | 10:33 |
| vox | Xtreme_Great: it would be preferable if you didnt try it out in here. | 10:33 |
| Xtreme_Great | Does anyone know how to attach Megahal to an irc network? And someone please tell some channel where bots are allowed for testing and training. | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | patbam: and what arch do you download for your ISOs? | 10:33 |
| Xtreme_Great | vox: Don't worry. I know this is a no spam channel... | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Xtreme_Great: irc allows spawning and destruction of channels | 10:34 |
| === kelohippi is now known as purma | ||
| ActionParsnip | Xtreme_Great: just join a randomly named channel and it will be made | 10:34 |
| nordhri | [1]SpaceGhost, you there? | 10:34 |
| patbam | ActionParsnip: i have tried both 64 and 32 bit for ubuntu, with the same freezing result. for fedora apparently there's just one distro for the live cd, which is labeled F12-Beta-x86_64-Live.torrent | 10:34 |
| Xtreme_Great | ActionParnship: But noone would be there to talk to the bot then... | 10:34 |
| ActionParsnip | patbam: could try a bios update if one is known to fix the issues you are having | 10:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Xtreme_Great: you would be | 10:35 |
| patbam | ActionParsnip: hmm that sounds interesting :) | 10:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Xtreme_Great: and if yuo use tab you can complete my name quicker and accurately | 10:35 |

| Kerio | hello! | 10:37 |
| Xtreme_Great | Actionparsnip: I go the bot source from http://megahal.alioth.debian.org/download/old/, and had to change some code to eliminate errors and warnings. | 10:37 |
| raid0 | how are we today? :) | 10:37 |
| Rohirrim | I have a question, I have installed ubuntu on a partition (small, of 20 GB) and have vista on one partition and two other partition with vista, But now I wanna remove vista, so is it ok that i can use the other three partitions (after removing vista) in ubuntu with keeping the file system of those partitions as NTFS? | 10:37 |
| [1]SpaceGhost | Yes | 10:37 |
| Xtreme_Great | Actionparsnip: But, it connects to the network, and after the first statement, does not say anything. | 10:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Xtreme_Great: why is that a problem? | 10:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Xtreme_Great: then you need to tweak more | 10:38 |
| Kerio | if i wish to switch from one nvidia card to another with 9.04 is there any precausion i should do? | 10:38 |
| frogzoo | Rohirrim: if you wipe those partitions, format them as ext3 | 10:38 |
| raid0 | Rohirrim, yes its ok, you wont have problems | 10:38 |
| [1]SpaceGhost | Rohirrim:yes. | 10:38 |
| Xtreme_Great | ActionParsnip: And does not work with any commands listed in the source. Of course, I didn't read the whole source yet. | 10:38 |
| Rohirrim | I don't want to format those partitions, I ll need a large backup drive to format them :P | 10:38 |
| Xtreme_Great | ActionParsnip: Then it seems, it's going to be quite some work trying to tweak it. | 10:38 |
| raid0 | Rohirrim, you can keep them though and use them as NTFS partitions, if you tend to wipe Ubuntu sometime for windows | 10:38 |
| Xtreme_Great | :) | 10:39 |
| Xtreme_Great | :'( | 10:39 |
| RhysM | ActionParsnip: are there any cost/legal implications of using open source software in a corporate environment? | 10:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Xtreme_Great: then setting up the channel to test something you know is broken is pointless | 10:39 |
| [1]SpaceGhost | Rohirrim, they will continue to work as they are independant from vista | 10:39 |
| * patbam tries to figure out what his bios is | 10:39 | |
| Rohirrim | Thanks then, vista is going | 10:39 |

| SpaceGhost | Viki27: look at that line that I didn't mean to paste in this channel, but as a pm. | 11:09 |
| infid | if lshw sees my wifi card but says it's disabled, does that mean the drivers arent installed or that they could be but some config option is disabling it? | 11:09 |
| Viki27 | SpaceGhost: ok , i see this line what i should do ? | 11:10 |
| SpaceGhost | It says to recopmile with -fPIC. I have no idea what it means and as it was my only lead, I'm tapped. | 11:10 |
| root | hey | 11:12 |
| AkifTariq123 | I use ubuntu minimal CD to install Ubuntu. Usually when I have to reinstall ubuntu, I delete all the folders by booting from rescue cd and backup my needed files and then install ubuntu in the same partition. This was I am able to install ubuntu cleanly without loosing my data. I have a lot of packages in apt cache folder. I was just wondering if I can ask ubuntu to consult it first if it has the latest version so I can save my bandwidth usage. | 11:14 |
| Blank__ | AkifTariq123, there's a program called "apt-cacher" which can do that | 11:14 |
| Blank__ | it can import any packages from your cache and act as a proxy for either your local machine or your whole network | 11:14 |
| Blank__ | for instance, i use it on my home server because of my slow connection - every megabyte counts | 11:15 |
| AkifTariq123 | can you please provide my useful link ... so while installing ubuntu from CD I can tell it to use apt-cache.... | 11:15 |
| Blank__ | you won't need to do it during the install... | 11:15 |
| Blank__ | you'll need to copy your old cache folder somewhere else, then set up apt-cacher after you install | 11:15 |
| root | wow | 11:16 |
| root | daming users | 11:16 |
| oh_robot | "find *.jpg" returns me a long list ... how can I display a number showing how many files have been found? | 11:16 |
| AkifTariq123 | ok... so it means I do not need two PCs for this setup? | 11:16 |
| MenZa | oh_robot: find *.jpg | wc -l | 11:16 |
| MenZa | oh_robot: wc -l will count the number of lines. | 11:16 |
| === root is now known as Guest13136 | ||
| Blank__ | not necessarily, AkifTariq123 | 11:16 |
| AkifTariq123 | ok thanks a lot _blank I will google apt-cache | 11:17 |
| Blank__ | you're welcome | 11:17 |
| SpaceGhost | oh-robot, did the cp -R *.jpg /whateverfolder, not work for you? | 11:17 |
| === bluebottle is now known as Guest25708 | ||
| oh_robot | SpaceGhost: no not really. the "cp -R *.jpg ../target" didn't do anything. I had more success with "find . -name "*.jpg" -print -exec cp -r {} ../target" ... (although it feelds like a dirty workaround) | 11:20 |
| infid | are there any wifi laptop cards that are gaurenteed to work out of the box on ubuntu 9.04 jaunty? | 11:21 |
| tillin | why this for doesn't work in python --> for i in os.system("cat dictionary.txt"): s.send('VRFY ' + i + '\r\n') | 11:21 |
| maik__ | hi | 11:21 |
| infid | tillin for starters dont use os.system. use readlines | 11:21 |
| tillin | infid sorry i don't understand you | 11:22 |
| === ap is now known as nosrepa | ||
| infid | tillin you want a function that will read your text file and split each newline as an array element for your for loop | 11:22 |
| tillin | yes | 11:22 |
| plitter | \msg plitter | 11:22 |
| plitter | \help | 11:22 |
| oh_robot | MenZa: thanks "find *.jpg | wc -l" will then -just- count the files, isn't it. can I count the files additionally to executing the command itself? | 11:22 |
| MenZa | oh_robot: what do you mean? | 11:23 |
| tillin | infid but this isn't the same than for i in `cat dictionary.txt` in bash ? | 11:23 |
| infid | tillin so use like f = open('dictionary.txt').readlines() | 11:23 |
| tillin | infid ok 1 sec | 11:23 |
| infid | tillin make sure you have the right permissions on the file | 11:24 |
| tillin | infid looks -> http://paste.linuxassist.net/215070 | 11:26 |
| tillin | it's simple but I'm starting with python and get me crazy | 11:26 |
| infid | tillin i'm hoping your indentation is there in your actual file | 11:27 |
| tillin | indentation ? | 11:28 |
| infid | python requires things after : to be indented | 11:28 |
| infid | unless its one statement on the same line | 11:28 |
| tillin | yes but I put it : | 11:28 |
| infid | foo: | 11:28 |
| infid | bar() | 11:28 |
| tillin | but in this case I have 3 sentences inside | 11:29 |
| tillin | do I need to put a do ... done like bash | 11:29 |
| === avc_working is now known as acuster | ||
| infid | when you stop indenting, that's how python knows the block is done | 11:29 |
| Mariandroid | every time I logon some of my desktop-icons are shuffled around. Can they be locked in place ? | 11:29 |
| infid | tillin you should probaly ask in #Python cause i gotta sleep | 11:30 |
| tillin | haha ok thanks you infid | 11:30 |

| innomen | MikeChelen, i have a google docs account, i'll look into that | 11:57 |
| MikeChelen | suppermann: sure why wouldn't it? upgrading distribution is always an option | 11:58 |
| bazhang | suppermann, you will need to take all the intermediate steps: 8.10 9.04 then 9.10 | 11:58 |
| innomen | bazhang, i'll answer direct questions where they are asked thanks :) | 11:58 |
| suppermann | bazhang, really? that would take a whole day, I could imagine! | 11:58 |
| MikeChelen | innomen: one other alternative is virtualbox, it can run windows and therefore any win software | 11:58 |
| suppermann | I think I'd rather take backup and then netinstall.. | 11:59 |
| innomen | MikeChelen, i cant make that work, it only lets me allocate up to 128 megs of video ram | 11:59 |

| albertxiaoyu | 我知道，在pc机下，在dos下，在用汇编语言操纵硬件时，我们向内存写入内容时，dos下是有一段安全的空间供我们写入信息的，我们也可查到。但是，在linux下呢？我改如何查看这段安全空间？应该也有吧？请各位有心人给予解惑。谢谢！ | 12:23 |

| marcus_ | amikrop, try audacity | 12:44 |
| marcus_ | yeah | 12:44 |
| amikrop | I would like to avoid big and complex tools like audacity, something straightgorward and minimal would do. | 12:44 |

| AnthonyVO | marcus_: drivers installed... reboot? | 12:44 |
| marcus_ | AnthonyVO: I just alsamixer pretty much | 12:44 |
| Nightwolf | audacity isn't big and complex imo | 12:44 |
| marcus_ | yeah you'll have to reboot, and then unmute with alsamixer | 12:44 |
| duffydack | nightfrog, I dont need to boot into it, I can wipe it while inside ubuntu as it`ll be hooked up to my usb external | 12:45 |
| amikrop | marcus_: so, what would be the process to cut an mp3 using audacity? | 12:45 |
| AnthonyVO | marcus_: k and push off HDA in BIOS? | 12:45 |
| marcus_ | AnthonyVO, imo yes | 12:45 |

| dinar2 | i want to move screen in monitor, there is no buttons on monitor. but nvidia settings programs also does not have button for that | 12:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Enissay: then i would guess the package name is not 'mono' | 12:50 |
| Enissay | i think so too | 12:50 |
| Enissay | but what's its name then :/ | 12:50 |
| marcus_ | amikrop, : you'd have to use trim and then delete the silence before and after | 12:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Enissay: use synaptic to show the packages avail at that repo. or apt-cache search,, or some of the otehr tools to seearch for pacakges | 12:51 |
| fcuk112_ | Enissay: are you looking for monodevelop? | 12:51 |

| marcus_ | yes on the bottom | 12:51 |

| grawity | digital-rouge: GTK themes usually can be unpacked to ~/.themes/ | 13:18 |
| grawity | digital-rouge: And if it's a "GTK theme", it's unrelated to Compiz or Emerald. | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | digital-rouge: or drag/drop it onto the theme-appearance program's main window | 13:18 |

| grawity | digital-rouge: Or, for a simple list of processes, there's always "ps". | 13:21 |

| erUSUL | gmap: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID#Boot Loader | 14:07 |
| gmap | erUSUL: That is my question as well. My bios does have an option to enable raid, but It is disabled and ubuntu still recognized it. Should it be enabled | 14:07 |
| eniacpx | hjar23: What version of ubuntu? Are you using any special nvidia drivers or anything? | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | hjar23: whats the output of: lspci | grep -i vga | 14:07 |
| erUSUL | gmap: linux software raid is allways the best option unless you need compatibility with windows | 14:08 |
| CHESLYN | grawity: i execute the command mkfs.vfat and it says /dev/names [blocks] and other options what must i do | 14:08 |
| iceroot | gmap: normaly there are 2 raid-controllers on common boards. for sata and ide | 14:08 |
| erUSUL | gmap: check the last link i posted | 14:08 |

| hjar23 | eniacpx: Ubuntu 9.04, i'm using normal nvidia drivers (version 180) | 14:08 |
| gmap | i had this debate last night in a linux channel and someone recommened I install ubuntu and it will do all the work for me. | 14:09 |
| ActionParsnip | hjar23: and does: nvidia-settings give any error messages? | 14:09 |
| erUSUL | ActionParsnip: if you have ~600$ or more sure ;) and be sure it has battery backed ram | 14:09 |
| eniacpx | hjar23: How are you trying to change the resolution, and what happens? | 14:09 |

| erUSUL | Jimmio: i'm talking about *real* hardware offloaded (i.e. the computations are done in a cpu in the card itself and not in your cpu) raid cards with its own ram backed by battery so a power loss does not destroy your data | 14:12 |

| Jimmio | erUSUL: Power loss rarely destroys data, and if it does, it's only on one drive 99/100 times. | 14:13 |
| satyag | <nawaflol> : if you are still there run ubiquity from terminal | 14:13 |

If i start compiz I get "/usr/bin/compiz.real (video) - Warn: No 8 bit GLX pixmap format, disabling YV12 image format", can that have something to do with it? | 14:14 |

| Jimmio | skylar: You could also use xfce for the time being, just install it through the package manager, then select session before login. | 14:23 |
| erUSUL | CHESLYN: you can use gparted if you want GUI app | 14:23 |
| scunizi | CHESLYN: install gparted | 14:23 |
| skylar | Ok Jimmio | 14:23 |
| Jimmio | skylar: xfce is a completely different windowing manager, and many times faster than Gnome. | 14:24 |
| Jimmio | skylar: different desktop environment** | 14:25 |

| nancymav | how can I get the latest version of boost in ubuntu? | 14:28 |
| scunizi | boost? sounds like an energy drink | 14:29 |
| grawity | Ytxx: Debian, for example, can be installed automatically using debootstrap. Creating a disk image for a VPS is easy too - dd, mount -o loop, debootstrap, umount. And Xen is scriptable too. | 14:29 |
| Ileden | Ehm, also the system apparently does not get online.... | 14:29 |
| Ytxx | grawity: well what one needs in order to set up a VPS company ? | 14:29 |

| ubottu | nancymav: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 14:29 |
| grawity | Ytxx: Lots of spare hardware. | 14:30 |
| nancymav | I need latest | 14:30 |
| nancymav | how can I get boost 1.40 for eample? | 14:30 |

| grawity | iceroot: >> redirects stdout (stream 1), 2>> redirects stderr (stream 2) | 14:42 |

| erUSUL | LjL: Ileden did a forced shutdown during an upgrade want to know the commands/steps to fix/see what's broken and repair the system | 14:43 |

| JuJuBee | Terces: I closed all sessions and restarted, but not reboot | 16:27 |

| snowball | lazarus: try - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html | 16:28 |

| monostone | erUSUL, my main concern is to figure out the reason for this occurring to be able to prevent it in the future | 16:46 |

| MenZa | PrebenR: #ubuntu+1 | 16:51 |
| antgel | x_: and what makes ubuntu netbook remix "designed" to run on that chip? and who were the two people who said that? i don't think anybody said that | 16:51 |
| x_ | antgel, um. why dont you do some research on why they made a netbook "remix" | 16:51 |
| PrebenR | thx | 16:51 |
| antgel | x_: put another way, what evidence do you have that atom compile flags hamper performance on a non-atom processor? | 16:51 |
| antgel | x_: because i know why | 16:52 |
| pcassiano | Which Mind Map tool do you use in your Ubuntu (if any)? | 16:52 |
| x_ | antgel, then good. | 16:52 |
| x_ | if you know, you dont need me | 16:52 |
| * addisonj loves IRC drama, who needs TV | 16:53 | |
| LjL | mcphail, antgel: well, feel free to research this better because i'm a bit confused myself. two facts is that there certainly exist an LPIA (low power intel architecture), and that the download page for UNR says an Atom is "required" (though granted, that's a lie in any case). but it might be that only Ubuntu Mobile, and not UNR, currently use LPIA by default, or that UNR is scheduled to do that for 9.10 but doesn't currently. it's also true that i don't see a | 16:53 |
| tester123 | pcassiano: xmind, or freemind | 16:53 |
| LjL | separate linux-image for LPIA in the repos. | 16:53 |
| antgel | x_: well, i don't need anyone whose "help" isn't based on hard facts, i can find loads of speculation on the web, especially in the windows world | 16:53 |
| Slart | pcassiano: hmm.. give freemind a try.. it's not perfect but it does a reasonable job | 16:53 |
| kelli | hi all | 16:53 |
| antgel | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1147618 suggests that it runs okay on a non-Atom | 16:53 |

| kelli | hello everyone | 16:54 |
| mcphail | LjL: i'll have a look at my netbook when i get home | 16:54 |
| antgel | x_: well, that's one way to get out of a sticky mess | 16:54 |
| antgel | LjL: any comment on the admittedly spurious link i pasted ^^? | 16:54 |

| iamringo | hey, so potentially dumb question, but anyone know of a terminal command to get the free space on a disk? | 16:54 |
| mcphail | iamringo: df -h | 16:55 |

| duelle | Hi, I have problems setting up a dual boot system with winxp. winxp runs fine in standalone. if i set up ubuntu and grub is installed win says that "ntoskrnl.exe" would be corrupted or missing. I tried many different solutions from the web - but nothing really helped | 16:56 |
| mcphail | antgel: anyway, you'll soon know if it won't run on a desktop when you try to install :) | 16:56 |
| x_ | Mariandroid, haha as in committing crimes? | 16:56 |
| * Mariandroid gives a fat wink | 16:56 | |
| LjL | antgel, well, if it's true that it uses the i386 kernel, as opposed to the lpia one, as one post says. though normal ubuntu uses the generic kernel anyway, i don't believe 386 is even available anymore...? | 16:56 |
| x_ | mcphail, i never said it would not run, just for the record | 16:57 |
| Slart | duelle: what does your grub configuration file look like? can you pastebin it? | 16:57 |
| Slart | !pastebin | duelle | 16:57 |
| ubottu | duelle: 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 | 16:57 |

| queso_ | snowball: didn't help, from what I can tell :( | 16:57 |
| Slart | !ot | masquerade | 16:57 |
| ubottu | masquerade: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 16:57 |
| x_ | masquerade, in what context | 16:57 |
| duelle | Slart: u mean menu.lst? | 16:57 |
| Slart | duelle: yes | 16:57 |
| masquerade | Slart: omg oke oke. that was just a short question and this channel is not so crowded that this would have disturbed anyone :) | 16:58 |
| LjL | antgel: ah, no, as for being available it's available. in that case you'll probably want to switch to the generic kernel anyway after installing it. | 16:58 |
| iamringo | And emptying the trash is the same as rm ~/.local/share/Trash/files/*? | 16:58 |
| duelle | Slart: ok, wait a sec | 16:58 |
| masquerade | x_: hold one one second | 16:58 |
| x_ | all the time he spent arguing with me he could have downloaded a ubuntu desktop iso | 16:58 |
| x_ | lol. | 16:58 |
| duelle | Slart: http://paste.ubuntu.com/298368/ | 16:59 |
| LjL | x_: quit it, seriously. both of you shoud have taken this to PM *ages* ago. this is not the channel for personal bickering. | 16:59 |
| antgel | LjL: so, install it, install the generic kernel, then tweak the packages as necessary - it's still using the i686 binary package arch in the repos? | 16:59 |
| === fares is now known as invalidrecord | ||
| duelle | Slart: winxp is on the first partition of a 500gb sata hdd | 16:59 |
| LjL | antgel: that's the very thing i'm not sure about anymore | 16:59 |
| masquerade | x_: like in "the media say/s that it will snow tomorrow | 16:59 |
| x_ | LjL, im sorry i started off trying to help him, and he called me a liar so ... i got mad. | 17:00 |
| x_ | masquerade, says | 17:00 |
| LjL | antgel: this is a quote from some days ago from someone in another channel: "UNR can be a bit funny if you try to install downloaded deb packages, because its arch. is lpia not i386" | 17:00 |
| pcassiano | 'xmind', 'freemind'... do exists some Linux's Mind Map tool like the (commercial) NovaMind? | 17:00 |
| mcphail | antgel: if my memory serves, it is using the standard repos. But my memory is rather poor... | 17:00 |
| antgel | i already said i'm not in a position to download an .iso. and for the record, i didn't call him a liar, i just asked him to backup his assertions with data, and he failed | 17:00 |
| x_ | masquerade, only "YOU" can use Say, like I say stop i | 17:01 |
| x_ | t* | 17:01 |
| antgel | LjL: okay. i could run it as "live" and see what it does, i suppose. thanks a lot for the info | 17:01 |
| masquerade | x_: really? my teacher said it is say because the media was plural. | 17:01 |
| mcphail | LjL: i have installed x86 debs on UNR (skype, amazon music downloader etc) | 17:01 |
| LjL | mcphail: the repos might be perfectly standard without the *architecture* being standard. although i admit i'm not seeing much trace of LPIA-compiled packages at archive.ubuntu.com | 17:01 |
| Slart | duelle: hmm.. it looks alright to me.. that's what my dual boot settings look like... odd that it doesn't work | 17:01 |
| x_ | masquerade, it is plural, says | 17:01 |
| masquerade | x_: i was arguing with him because i was also thinking it was sayS :) | 17:01 |
| masquerade | x_: thanks a lot. | 17:01 |
| antgel | i think this would be a good thing to put on the wiki, it seems to be a bit of a can of worms | 17:01 |
| LjL | antgel: while doing that, you should run "uname -a" and see which kernel *and* arch it's running with | 17:01 |
| antgel | LjL: *nod* | 17:02 |
| duelle | i read, that this error may come from a malformed boot.ini in win, but if i start win with the boot cd and fix the mbr it runs fine again | 17:02 |

| arshad | hi all | 17:02 |
| arshad | can any one tell me how to participate in the room | 17:02 |
| arshad | :( | 17:02 |
| Roddux | say hi | 17:02 |
| arshad | i don't understand whats going on | 17:03 |
| Roddux | like so | 17:03 |
| Roddux | just lurk | 17:03 |
| x_ | Hi arshad welcome to ubuntu anonymus | 17:03 |
| Roddux | and listen | 17:03 |
| antgel | LjL: everything in binary archive appears to be i386 or amd64 | 17:03 |
| duelle | slart: to determine the source of the error i removed a data storage ide hdd - so theres only this one left atm and in this state i installed ubuntu - though grub should just know this one sata-hdd | 17:03 |
| arshad | is this a place where questions can be posted? | 17:03 |
| Slart | duelle: hmm... you're not using some weird built-in-into-the-bios boot selector? you're just using the regular grub boot menu? | 17:03 |
| queso_ | snowball: any other ideas? | 17:03 |
| Roddux | arshad: yesa | 17:03 |
| saml | how can I see messages during boot? | 17:03 |
| mcphail | arshad: try #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat. this room is rather busy and is a support channel. | 17:03 |
| Roddux | but not if you can google them first | 17:03 |
| saml | instead of usplash progressbar | 17:03 |
| x_ | LjL, google does say that atom uses intel 32bit instruction set. | 17:03 |
| snowball_ | queso_: not affect? | 17:03 |
| masquerade | saml: recovery mode? | 17:03 |
| arshad | thank you | 17:03 |
| arshad | :) | 17:03 |
| snowball_ | no* | 17:04 |
| x_ | LjL, which would make it fully x86 compat? | 17:04 |
| LjL | x_: it certainly does, but that's not the point. please, read back what i said | 17:04 |
| queso_ | snowball_ : no, it didn't make a difference | 17:04 |
| saml | masquerade, no.. during normal mode.. there's no keyboard shorcut to print messages? | 17:04 |
| masquerade | saml: i dont know of any, sorry | 17:04 |
| snowball_ | queso_: restore your config back to the original | 17:04 |
| x_ | LjL, read what | 17:04 |
| duelle | Slart: i think one point in my configuration with both hdd connected is, that the ide hdd is primary master, and all sata ports start at third or fourth | 17:04 |
| saml | masquerade, oh don't be sorry i love you | 17:04 |
| x_ | duelle, change it in ur bios? | 17:05 |
| LjL | x_: my messages, where i have explained how something can be perfectly x86 compatible and still be compiled as a different target for optimization. | 17:05 |
| Slart | duelle: yes.. that kind of makes sense.. that would make the IDE drive sda.. could that be correct? | 17:05 |
| duelle | Slart: so there is such a menu containing boot priorities, but atm there should be just this one | 17:05 |
| x_ | LjL, that was partially my point for telling him it will run, but not as good as possible. | 17:05 |
| snowball_ | queso_: post your /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf | 17:05 |
| duelle | slart: that surely could be - but atm there is no other than the sata hdd | 17:05 |
| masquerade | saml: lol oke | 17:05 |
| Slart | duelle: but you're now running with just the sata drive.. and you can boot ubuntu just fine.. but not windows | 17:06 |
| LjL | x_: and that's the exact same thing that i said, so i'm not sure what you're arguing | 17:06 |
| duelle | slart: jep | 17:06 |
| Slart | duelle: if you boot into ubuntu and start gparted, what is the name of the windows partition? | 17:06 |
| x_ | LjL, ok, if its fully x86 compat, then why did they optimize it for something else, is what im missing. | 17:06 |
| Slart | duelle: is it still /dev/sda1 ? | 17:06 |
| chi_ | hi all, is there a different sound engine in 9.10 in contrast to 9.04? | 17:07 |
| antgel | actually he said: | 17:07 |
| antgel | 16:36 x_> many driver etc problems | 17:07 |
| duelle | slart: wait a sec - gparted isn't installed by default | 17:07 |
| x_ | antgel, cause i did not even think it was x86 at first | 17:07 |
| Slart | chi_: I think it's still alsa in the bottom.. but you can ask in #ubuntu+1 | 17:08 |
| duelle | slart: got it - sda1 is my ntfs partition containing winxp | 17:08 |
| antgel | x_: so you didn't have a clue then got annoyed because i pointed that out. good to be off your /ig list | 17:08 |
| boscop | why isn't times new roman installed on ubuntu?? | 17:08 |
| x_ | wow. time to smoke a bowl. | 17:08 |
| x_ | adios | 17:08 |
| LjL | x_: uh. the *instruction set* is the same. however, the hardware implements it in a totally different way from current "desktop" x86 processors. so, the *same* instructions can take *different* amounts of times to execute. additionally, one of the goals of Atom is to take up little power (you can guess that's why it's called a "low power intel architecture"), which makes for a completely different optimization target than one for speed. | 17:08 |
| LjL | fsaeopu | 17:08 |
| masquerade | boscop: because it is the worst font ever | 17:08 |

| mcphail | boscop: property of Microsoft. You can install it, though | 17:09 |
| masquerade | boscop: dejavu is great. i also like delicious | 17:09 |
| masquerade | boscop: unfortunately i cant give you a good example with serifs out of my head | 17:09 |
| MenZa | boscop: What are you using it for? | 17:10 |
| Slart | !fonts | 17:10 |
| ubottu | Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 17:10 |
| boscop | MenZa: concept paper | 17:10 |
| mcphail | boscop: Times New Roman is a fine font. Most MS fonts are good. Arial is the exception. Install msttcorefont | 17:10 |
| Slart | masquerade: bitstream has a serif font.. also deja something.. | 17:10 |
| masquerade | oh, really? oke then | 17:10 |
| MenZa | boscop: Bitstream Vera Serif is a wonderful font. If you're willing to dabble in LaTeX, Computer Modern is rather amazing. | 17:10 |
| boscop | masquerade: dejavu looks pretty much like times new roman. how does it differ ? | 17:10 |
| masquerade | boscop: it makes a big difference if you look close. also, every idiot uses times new roman, so you want to be better ;) | 17:11 |
| masquerade | see you everyone, got to go | 17:11 |
| boscop | masquerade: that's why I use latex, normally | 17:11 |
| Slart | duelle: hmm.. have been googling around a bit.. haven't really found anything useful.. if you ask me it should work.. don't know why windows is being cranky | 17:12 |
| queso_ | snowball_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/298375/ | 17:12 |
| duelle | Slart: the problem seems to be, that win doesn't really know where to find its files - may I need to change some parameters in menu.lst for booting winxp? | 17:13 |
| Slart | duelle: here's my menu.lst.. I don't have windows on sda1 so I have to use the two "map" commands.. but this works with windows xp and windows 7 | 17:13 |
| antgel | LjL: thanks again, i'm off now | 17:14 |
| Slart | duelle: perhaps.. although I doubt it's a grub parameter you need to change.. it might be something in windows though.. something that is used later in the boot process | 17:14 |
| duelle | Slart: i read that these mapping commands would only be needed if win isn't on the first partition - but i couldn't really find out if i need makeactive or boot in my menu.lst | 17:15 |
| EmilemiL | I have a problem with the included firewall on ubuntu server, i cant connect to a samba share with my regular (windows) pc. iptables does not show anything, webserver and protftp works tho. | 17:16 |
| boscop | masquerade: I installed msttcorefonts, but they don't show up in the fonts list after restarting OO! | 17:16 |
| duelle | Slart: afaik nothing changes in win when i install grub - just the mbr - and if i fix it with win it works fine again - so there has to be some error in the mbr -> grub or am i wrong? | 17:16 |
| skyl | some of my machines use nano (or something) as the default text editor for things like git commit ... how can I switch back to vim? | 17:16 |
| Slart | duelle: I actually looked in the documentation about makeactive.. perhaps windows wants its partition to be set "active" .. you could give it a try.. see if it helps | 17:16 |
| snowball_ | queso_: sorry, i don't know what is wrong | 17:17 |

| mcphail | skyl: some programs respect the $EDITOR or $VISUAL environment variable | 17:18 |
| duelle | Slart: i tried many different combinations of makeactive etc ... but nothing worked ... does it matter if makeactive is placed before chainload +1 or so? | 17:18 |
| queso_ | snowball_: okay, thanks for your time | 17:18 |
| Slart | duelle: before the chainloader command would be my guess | 17:18 |

| OerHeks | indian_munnda i use GKrellm for that | 17:24 |
| duelle | Slart: i looked @ boot.ini and tried - as in some forums was said - to change paritions or disks - but that doesnt help too ... the config of boot.ini is the same as there would just be winxp only - i compared it with such a system | 17:24 |
| fcuk112_ | ah i can just use synaptic. | 17:25 |

| snowball_ | DekaPink: do you have restricted drivers on? | 17:26 |
| dewman | DekaPink, I had that problem as well. What I did was reset the display on my monitor and it seemed to correct the issue. | 17:26 |
| Slart | duelle: mm.. I don't think ubuntu has changed anything in the boot.ini file.. but the original boot loader from windows might do some magic that grub can't do.. but these are just guesses at this point, sorry I can't be of more help | 17:27 |
| indian_munnda | OerHeks: but i want to write a script that will display that information, I got an assignment. Thats why...help | 17:27 |

| MattRoxors | Hey, can someone help me change terminal so that when i want to open a file from it or use a file i dont have to put the ./ before the file name? so that it will automatically look in my cwd | 17:33 |

| MattRoxors | the only reason i want to do it is because that is the way terminal works at my university and i find it easier to use that way =] | 17:34 |

| elops | I have a cronjob, whose last act is to shadow a section of the filesystem with lndir. The cronjob succeeds for the most part, but lndir mysteriously only mirrors about 10% of the target path. When I run the lndir command standalone, outside a cron job, it works fine. Anyone have any ideas? | 17:57 |
| unop | lanoxx, a bit, what's the question? | 17:57 |
| shavinder | in fact it shows "homes" as the share name which does not seem right cos there is no directory by the name 'homes' on my ubuntu server | 17:57 |
| unop | elops, does lndir have a debugging facility, if so, you could output that to a log file and examine it that way ... | 17:58 |
| unop | shavinder, there is a default share called homes -- see your /etc/samba/smb.conf which lists all users home directories under it | 17:58 |
| lanoxx | unop, in man gnome-session there are 3 files mentioned but on my system none of them are present and also running gnome-session-safe does not create any session file | 17:58 |
| indian_munnda | mcphail: what is the command to know system name? | 17:59 |
| unop | lanoxx, session files are created in ~/.config/gnome-session i believe - do you have that directory and anything within it? | 17:59 |
| shavinder | unop: I shal have to confirm that tommorow at my work place, but the prob is why cant i access it from windows on LAN? | 17:59 |
| lanoxx | unop, im looking for that issue because in system->preferences->apperance->visual effects my settings are not saved and always reverted on reboot, i believe it has something to do with the session management | 18:00 |
| unop | shavinder, well, have you enabled guest access to your shares? if not, have you enabled the samba user? is the samba password database created? etc etc | 18:00 |

| unop | lanoxx, well, if you have this file and it is not being used - then it's not a bug. but if you're getting an app wanting this file or to delete it, then yes, it's a bug./ | 18:03 |
| Slart | indian_munnda: or check where top gets the info from.. it's probably available from some file in /proc or /sys | 18:03 |

| lanoxx | unop, hmm, would be nice to talk to the guy that wrote the patch, any idea who is the maintainer of gnome-control-center? | 18:04 |
| unop | elops, does lndir have a debugging facility? if so, you could output that to a log file and examine it that way. if not, you could redirect STDERR to a log file i.e. lndir .... 2> /tmp/lndir.err.log | 18:04 |

| mMezquitale | iceroot, i know the hardware works but will ubuntu have any issues though, that is what I am asking, I can stick a PCI Express 2.0 video card in a PCI Express x16 slot, no issue there but will the OS have any issues??? | 18:35 |

| emilys | vansihing : what i'm actually asking here is why ubuntu software didnt always come in .deb? imho it will attract more user to try out ubuntu remembering theres a lot of people who just like me, pure user. however im using ubuntu for about about 5 months and i rarely go back to windows cause i feel its challenging. | 18:35 |
| iceroot | mMezquitale: why should the os have an issue with that? if the hardware and connection is ok, ubunu does not care about it | 18:36 |
| dan7gg | d33d, i'll do more research and come back soon | 18:36 |
| iceroot | mMezquitale: its more important that the drivers support the card | 18:36 |
| vanishing | steveire: how are you connecting your second display to your machine? | 18:36 |
| mMezquitale | iceroot, you must be new at this then, people have had issues with something as basic as memory | 18:36 |
| d33d | dan7gg, i'm trying to find a good command for you to get some logs so we can figure this out :D | 18:36 |
| LjL | emilys: Ubuntu software *does* almost invariably come in .debs | 18:36 |
| steveire | There are slots for two cables in the card at the back | 18:36 |

| vanishing | emilys: debs and exes are basicly the same idea, both compiled from source..if you need a deb, the chance is you can find it on the web, but source files gives you more options when you compile imo... | 18:39 |

| iceroot | mMezquitale: yes, that is a good idea, the rest (pci x16, pci 2.0) is not part of ubuntu but of your board/the card | 18:39 |

| Tohuw | debbie2009: You don't have any room to increase the partition, because the rest of the disk is in use. I suggest backing up any files and either redoing your partitioning scheme and reinstalling everything or (easier) add a new drive | 18:57 |
| a__ | how do you change permissions in a ntfs external HD from read only to read write. I've already tried the gui, with no effect. | 18:57 |
| === Dark_archer is now known as elfuser | ||

Is anyone else having similar issues with this? Is it known, am I doing something stupid ? | 19:02 |
| snowball_ | MrDusty: what vpn client are you using? | 19:02 |
| d33d | cgroza, ok so lets go to... the little Skype icon at the bottom, click it, and go to options, then click on "Video Devices" on the left hand column and make sure that "Enable Skype Video" is CHECKED, and what's listed in the "Select Webcam" area? | 19:03 |

| d33d | cgroza, im no master at this...can you get anymore information on the camera (Eg: Logitech Quickcam Express...? Express II?? | 19:09 |

| sgs1990 | does ennyone know how i can remove a folder that is in the location pannel?????????? | 19:09 |

| digital-rouge | im new to ubuntu | 19:10 |
| Tohuw | sgs1990: in general, drag it out or right click and remove | 19:10 |
| snowball_ | dayzmelttogether: you mean to say that no live cd's have mouse/keyboard support or just 9.10? | 19:10 |
| sebsebseb | !backup | devaj | 19:10 |

| teolicy | Hi. I'm looking for a command line utility which can help me solve the following problem: I'd like to copy several large files (say, several movies to a USB stick). I immediately find the first movie to copy, and I want to (a) start the copy, (b) later on start copying another file, but I'd like the latter file to be queued rather than copied in parallel (performance, fragmentation, poor USB controllers, etc). Any recommendations? I'd a | 19:19 |
| teolicy | happy for a Gnome front end to this utility, but that's part B. | 19:19 |
| ha1331 | dragon: you did. My point was that there is lots of hardware out there. | 19:19 |
| soreau | dragon: That's from the survey they did last night | 19:19 |
| dayzmelttogether | ok where would i ask a question specificly on editing devices and setting on ubuntu 9.04? | 19:19 |
| tech_ | I'm looking to get some gammu/wammu help if I can..surely one of these ubuntu pro's could help me out. :) | 19:20 |
| BoxMagnet | teolicy, sudo cp /path/to/file /path/to/dir & second one here & third one here | 19:20 |
| dragon | soreau: I'm serious here. A person is deciding between Ubuntu and Mac, and I'm influencing his decision. | 19:20 |
| MrDusty | snowball_, I am logged into Gnome, I would of thought it would of asked to su to root if needs be - how do i do this as root ? | 19:20 |
| dragon | ha1331: yes | 19:20 |
| ha1331 | dragon: why would you want to have some number? | 19:20 |
| daevski | Neremor: I'm not familiar with KDE yet, but in gnome all you need is samba installed and to right click the folders and share them, like windows. | 19:20 |
| Slart | teolicy: perhaps rsync could be of use.. | 19:20 |
| Neremor | well, and how do i connect to this folder from the other pc? | 19:20 |
| jgay | does anybody know how to make empathy always bring a conversation to focus when someone IMs me? | 19:21 |
| Neremor | if i enter "smb://" as path there, i get the message that no other pc's were found in the local workgroup... | 19:21 |
| daevski | Neremor: then you can use any folder viewer and type smb://ip.address.of.machine | 19:21 |
| jgay | or rather, always add the conversation to my set of conversation tabs | 19:21 |
| Neremor | ah thanks | 19:21 |
| teolicy | BoxMagnet: First, I think you mean && and not &. Second, when I give the first copy command I don't know what file b will be. I want to start copy 1, then issue the command for copy command 2, and to have copy command 2 wait to start until 1 finishes. (or better, talk to copy command 1 over a UNIX domain socket and queue the file in that process). | 19:21 |
| FoolsRun | Hello, I got a call from my ISP saying that they'd received reports of a "tcp sweep" originating from inside my network. I have two Windows PCs and an Ubuntu fileserver with SSH open to the world. Are there infections which could have taken control of the Ubuntu machine and caused something like that? | 19:21 |
| ha1331 | there is no number to be had. Maybe you need to figure out what you need to work and then ask if they work instead of asking how many of all the possible options would work? | 19:21 |
| soreau | dragon: Then just tell him it's widely freely supported, works with many if not all mac products and everything is freely downloadable/installable through repositories | 19:22 |
| BoxMagnet | teolicy, ahh. | 19:22 |
| dragon | ha1331: I'm looking for just a rough estimate. Numbers generally sounds promising. I'll quote what he said. | 19:22 |

| daevski | Neremor: if that doesn't work look in the kubuntu documentation. I found it to be very well written. I was just doing the same thing recently. | 19:22 |

| Tohuw | FoolsRun: yes, there are. If you're going to open SSH, consider using keys instead of password authentication | 19:22 |
| dragon | ha1331, soreau: This is what he asked: "How does one go about selecting a box to buy when there is the problem that it may have hardware that ubuntu can't use?" | 19:22 |
| BoxMagnet | teolicy, write a bash script? | 19:22 |
| snowball_ | digital-rouge: yeah, sorry, what's up? | 19:23 |
| Slart | dragon: you check what hardware is in the box, check the hardware compat. list or try running a live cd on it in some kind of store | 19:23 |
| ha1331 | dragon: well, my experience is that if one buys a real server (not one of those hand build by your car mechanic) it works. | 19:23 |
| soreau | dragon: In that case, he needs to look at the ubuntu system requirements on ubuntu.com | 19:23 |

| digital-rouge | im me snowball- please | 19:24 |
| tute | Does some one knows a soft to send sms ? | 19:24 |
| ltcabral | hey how do i see if i have sudo on a machine? | 19:24 |
| BoxMagnet | teolicy, someone suggested rsync? | 19:24 |
| teolicy | BoxMagnet: How would it help me? | 19:24 |
| Slart | ltcabral: "which sudo" | 19:24 |
| Jordan_U | dragon: You can buy a computer that comes with Ubuntu from system76 or Dell | 19:24 |
| daevski | Anyone know why my Remote Desktop (viewer) doesn't refresh when I open folders and click around? The mouse moves correctly, and the refresh rate for that seems okay, but it's not refreshing windows. I have to reconnect to see changes... :( | 19:24 |
| FoolsRun | Tohuw: I'll implement that as soon as possible. What should I look for in the meantime on the Ubuntu machine/what should I be trying to clean up? | 19:24 |
| digital-rouge | snowball_: just to hard to follow the convo in chat | 19:24 |
| tonyyarusso | FoolsRun: It's more likely that your ISP doesn't know what they're talking about, but you can use the rkhunter and chkrootkit tools too check your machine. | 19:24 |
| snowball_ | MrDusty: I do not recommend running the connection as root but it looks like you have permission errors (maybe the program was not installed correctly?) | 19:24 |
| BoxMagnet | teolicy, I am not sure, it may have the options you are looking for, I am not the one who suggested it, maybe scroll up | 19:24 |
| dayzmelttogether | heeeellllppppppp | 19:24 |
| Neremor | well, enter the pc of the other pc didn't work | 19:24 |
| dayzmelttogether | XD | 19:24 |
| dragon | Tohuw: That page looks scary. I want him to feel comfy with ubuntu. He's ready to spend $999 on a Mac server. | 19:24 |
| FoolsRun | tonyyarusso: thanks. I have to listen to them because they threatened my service if I don't fix it | 19:24 |
| soreau | dragon: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/techspecs | 19:24 |
| ltcabral | Slart: how do i know if MY USER has sudo? | 19:24 |
| soreau | ltcabral: It does | 19:25 |
| Tohuw | FoolsRun: stop sshd, and check out your running processes for anything that looks suspicious | 19:25 |
| \W3nd|g0 | hi | 19:25 |
| dragon | Slart: LiveCD will be an option AFTER he buys it. | 19:25 |
| dayzmelttogether | i need an expert, where can i find 1? | 19:25 |
| teolicy | Slart: How do you recon I should use rsync here? | 19:25 |
| ltcabral | soreau: i just see /usr/bin/sudo | 19:25 |
| Tohuw | !ask | dayzmelttogether | 19:25 |
| ubottu | dayzmelttogether: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 19:25 |

| ha1331 | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMcSNfrT-4M | 19:25 |
| FoolsRun | Tohuw: Well I need to keep sshd on right now --I'm not on-site :) | 19:25 |
| ltcabral | soreau: that means i have sudo? | 19:25 |
| ha1331 | oh, sorry, wrong window | 19:25 |
| soreau | ltcabral: yes | 19:25 |
| korcan | how do I flush the dns cache? I don't have nscd to restart... | 19:25 |
| Slart | ltcabral: YOUR USER doesn't have sudo.. the system has sudo installed.. or it hasn't.. then the user can be configured to be allowed to use sudo or not.. which question are you asking? | 19:26 |
| tonyyarusso | dragon: I don't know percentages, but "most". If you want to be sure, check out providers like System76, ZaReason, Dell, and Sun, which all certify all or some of their hardware with Ubuntu. | 19:26 |
| Jordan_U | korcan: There is no dns cache by default except in the browser | 19:26 |
| Tohuw | FoolsRun: then change your passwords and check your passwords | 19:26 |
| ltcabral | Slart: ok i got it... thanks | 19:26 |
| Slart | dragon: then I guess the live cd isn't an option | 19:26 |
| tonyyarusso | FoolsRun: Ask for logs. | 19:26 |
| BoxMagnet | putting your self in the same group as root = bad idea, or good idea? | 19:26 |
| Tohuw | FoolsRun: check your processes, not your passwords, sorry typo | 19:26 |
| korcan | Jordan_U, so closing the browser should do it? | 19:26 |
| Jordan_U | korcan: Yes | 19:26 |
| dragon | tonyyarusso: That's a good idea. I'll check the certification thing. Thanks! | 19:26 |
| MrDusty | snowball_, Its installed by default, we're talking about NetworkManager | 19:26 |
| korcan | Jordan_U, thanks... | 19:27 |
| Slart | teolicy: well.. you can use rsync as a file copy with some extra features.. I'm not sure but it's possible that rsync can be convinced to do what you want.. | 19:27 |
| Tohuw | BoxMagnet: depends on the group and what that group has access to | 19:27 |
| tonyyarusso | FoolsRun: You can also look through /var/log/auth.log for any logins from IPs that aren't yours. | 19:27 |
| dayzmelttogether | ok, no mouse no keyboard, suddely stopped working after reboot, doesnt work with live cds unless i check all f6 options, works fine with windows dual boot, how to i reset whatever it is that halted those functions?? | 19:27 |
| Tohuw | BoxMagnet: putting yourself in the group called root is a very bad idea | 19:27 |
| BoxMagnet | Tohuw, ok, i think ill stay away from doing that. | 19:27 |
| snowball_ | MrDusty: try installing vpnc | 19:27 |
| mneptok | dragon: what type of hardware is being bought? | 19:27 |
| BoxMagnet | Tohuw, what can happen? | 19:27 |
| tute | Does some one knows a soft to send sms ? | 19:27 |
| FoolsRun | Tohuw: thanks. I haven't completed malwarebytes scans on the Windows machines yet, so hopefully I'll find something there. | 19:27 |
| teolicy | I /think/ (this is a bit of an open idea here) that what I really want is this: a copy program which has a separate UI and daemonized backend. The backend has a queue. The front end can: block and show the progress of the backend (speed, estimated progress, etc) OR add something to the queue of an existing backend OR start a whole new backend. Think 'screen'. | 19:27 |
| BoxMagnet | FoolsRun, is someone using ur wifi to download stuff? | 19:27 |
| snowball_ | MrDusty: the default network manager doesn't come with vpn | 19:27 |
| daevski | tute: gmail does it now. | 19:27 |
| dragon | mneptok: A regular desktop PC, probably quad core, for use with Ubuntu Server Ed. | 19:28 |
| Tohuw | BoxMagnet: that circumvents much of the protection offered to prevent tampering with system settings and files | 19:28 |
| tute | i-m trying via web services but i don't want to open firefox to do it | 19:28 |
| MrDusty | snowball_, vpnc is a cisco client, I have installed network-manager-pptp... ? | 19:28 |
| daevski | tute: gmail is integrated in Pidgin also. | 19:28 |
| FoolsRun | BoxMagnet: unlikely, but there are no logs to check so it's possible. | 19:28 |
| mneptok | dragon: not a rack-mountable machine? | 19:28 |
| BoxMagnet | FoolsRun, your router keeps logs. | 19:28 |
| dayzmelttogether | no mouse no keyboard, suddely stopped working after reboot, doesnt work with live cds unless i check all f6 options, works fine with windows dual boot, how to i reset whatever it is that halted those functions?? | 19:28 |
| dragon | mneptok: no | 19:28 |
| MrDusty | snowball_, they are installed anyways.. i just checked.. | 19:28 |
| Tohuw | FoolsRun: my money is on your windows machines being the culprit, but it's hard to say without checking. Try checking your router logs or putting packet monitors like wireshark on each machine | 19:28 |
| mneptok | dragon: US, or ... ? | 19:28 |
| BoxMagnet | FoolsRun, you can also go to the attached devices section and check ip addresses, you can also restrict access to the router based on mac address of each pc's wifi card/nic | 19:28 |
| === k is now known as Guest39265 | ||
| dragon | mneptok: yeah, California | 19:28 |
| BoxMagnet | FoolsRun, that way if someone can hack the p/w some how they still cant get in. | 19:29 |
| mneptok | dragon: i think that's spelled "Kuhhleefohneeyah" now ;) | 19:29 |

| dragon | mneptok: how does location matter? | 19:29 |
| MrDusty | snowball_, it now fails saying no valid secrets | 19:29 |
| Slart | tute: sending sms's usually cost money.. it's not a technical problem afaik.. or you can connect a phone using bluetooth and use that to send your sms's.. there is a gnome-phone applet to do that | 19:29 |
| mneptok | dragon: some Ubuntu vendors do not ship outide of the US | 19:29 |
| dragon | mneptok: He's looking to pick it up from Fry's. | 19:30 |
| dayzmelttogether | no mouse no keyboard, suddely stopped working after reboot, doesnt work with live cds unless i check all f6 options, works fine with windows dual boot, how to i reset whatever it is that halted those functions?? | 19:30 |
| Tohuw | tute: http://www.livejournal.com/tools/textmessage.bml?mode=details | 19:30 |
| FoolsRun | how often does auth.log get archived? I can unzip the log from the date the ISP reported the problem | 19:30 |
| BoxMagnet | FoolsRun, on your router? | 19:30 |
| mneptok | dragon: next to impossible, if you want a warrantee that covers Ubuntu | 19:30 |
| FoolsRun | BoxMagnet: in Ubuntu | 19:30 |
| BoxMagnet | FoolsRun, or on ubuntu | 19:30 |
| tonyyarusso | FoolsRun: Should be in the form of auth.log.1, auth.log.2, etc., separated once per day. | 19:30 |
| FoolsRun | per-day, okay. | 19:31 |
| BoxMagnet | there ya go | 19:31 |
| tonyyarusso | FoolsRun: (You can set up different schemes if you wish for the future) | 19:31 |
| mneptok | dragon: if you install Ubuntu on a machine sold with Windows, 99% of OEMs immediately void your warrantee. | 19:31 |
| BoxMagnet | FoolsRun, if your wifi is compromised id seriously consider restricting based on mac address | 19:31 |
| FoolsRun | BoxMagnet: I'll check that next | 19:31 |
| Jordan_U | mneptok: Not the hardware warentee | 19:31 |
| tute | thanks bro ... i'm on it! | 19:31 |
| dayzmelttogether | no mouse no keyboard, suddely stopped working after reboot, doesnt work with live cds unless i check all f6 options, works fine with windows dual boot, how to i reset whatever it is that halted those functions??....is there another place to ask this kind of question? | 19:32 |
| mneptok | Jordan_U: yes, the hardware warrantee, in many cases. | 19:32 |
| craigbass1976 | Anyone? I need to receive the faxes currently sitting on my "out of toner" printer and print them out somewhere else. | 19:32 |
| dragon | mneptok: That's something I don't want him to know. | 19:32 |
| tonyyarusso | mneptok: I'd also question that... I've known Lenovo, IBM, Dell, and HP all to offer support after Ubuntu installation. | 19:32 |
| Aviram | hmm | 19:32 |
| mMezquitale | how can you tell what video care you have using the command line? | 19:32 |
| Aviram | How od I do physics with the avant? | 19:32 |
| mneptok | dragon: better to buy from a vendor that ships with Ubuntu (System76/Zareason/Dell) or build your own. | 19:33 |
| tonyyarusso | mMezquitale: lspci usually | 19:33 |
| pistyman | i am trying to make a virtual cd/dvd drive in ubuntu so i can get windows 7 (i cant live with ubuntu). I am trying to use this http://sourceforge.net/projects/cdemu/files/CDemu%20daemon/cdemu-daemon-1.2.0/cdemu-daemon-1.2.0.tar.bz2/download but i cant install it. i promise this will be my last request for help if it works )) | 19:33 |

| mneptok | tonyyarusso: Dell will look up your service tag and only offer support if you are running the OS that shipped with the machine. | 19:33 |
| linux | knb | 19:33 |
| trism | pistyman: you'd probably have better luck with cdemu if you add the repo instead | 19:33 |
| dragon | !botabuse > elops | 19:34 |

| tonyyarusso | mneptok: How would they know if it wasn't a software problem? | 19:34 |
| BoxMagnet | tonyyarusso, glad to hear it, usually dell offers bad support to begin with. | 19:34 |
| Jordan_U | mneptok: Support is not the same as replacing the hardware under warentee | 19:34 |

| mneptok | tonyyarusso: yeah, good luck with that | 19:35 |
| dayzmelttogether | how do i reset xorg? | 19:36 |
| Mike_lifeguard | What is the first column in the output of ps aux? Probably either gid or uid right? All my processes have a number instead of a name O.o | 19:36 |
| BoxMagnet | dayzmelttogether, reset ? | 19:36 |
| MikeChelen | Mike_lifeguard: try using pgrep instead | 19:36 |
| BoxMagnet | dayzmelttogether, ctrl+alt+backspace may work depending on version | 19:36 |
| Jordan_U | mneptok: I've only encountered one person who claimed that using Linux voided my hardware warranty and that was an Apple store employee who was told by his manager that he was wrong | 19:37 |
| dayzmelttogether | well restore it i am not sue to its original, i cant get mouse and keyboard support maybe its xorg i also read to reset grub | 19:37 |
| trism | pistyman: on the packages page of the cdemu site there is a link to their ubuntu ppa repo, although launchpad seems to be dead at the moment, so I suppose it isn't very helpful | 19:37 |
| Mike_lifeguard | MikeChelen: Sorry if I'm not clear - I think my processes should have my username attached, not a number right? I seem to have done something wrong while changing my group membership or somesuch | 19:37 |
| BoxMagnet | Jordan_U, because it is software, not hardware. | 19:37 |
| pistyman | trism: thanks mate.. | 19:37 |
| BoxMagnet | Mike_lifeguard, no, that number is the process id number or PID | 19:38 |
| pistyman | i just want to know how to create that drive | 19:38 |
| Mike_lifeguard | BoxMagnet: No it isn't - otherwise I have many processes with numbers like 'www-data' and many processes all with the same pid :| | 19:38 |
| BoxMagnet | Mike_lifeguard, no, process id number is different for each process. | 19:39 |
| BoxMagnet | Mike_lifeguard, use top | 19:39 |
| bigl9er | Can anyone help me to get a microtouch touch screen working in Ubuntu? None of the guides work, this connects via PS/2 port | 19:39 |
| Mike_lifeguard | BoxMagnet: I just said that! It is the 'user' column that has a number instead of a name for all my processes | 19:39 |
| dpanda | planning to give ubuntu another full-time use chance. will get a new desktop cpu, not looking to spend a fortune, apart from regular computing i just need to run photoshop on xp on virtualbox on daily basic apart from gimp, so what standard processor+ram+motherboard combo will be sufficient? core2duo or dual core? intel motherboard/asus which in general has better compatibility with ubuntu | 19:39 |
| BoxMagnet | Mike_lifeguard, oh really..... | 19:39 |
| Mike_lifeguard | BoxMagnet: nobody but you is talking about the pids | 19:39 |
| BoxMagnet | Mike_lifeguard, ok ok hold on | 19:39 |
| MikeChelen | Mike_lifeguard: some processes can have a number like "1000" | 19:40 |
| MikeChelen | in the user column of ps aux | 19:40 |
| Mike_lifeguard | MikeChelen: Why would that be? | 19:41 |
| Aijse | Anybodu know it's gonna be possible to have Amarok 2.2 on ubuntu 9.04 or is it only for Karmic? | 19:41 |
| FoolsRun | Alright, I get some of this in auth.log: root : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/ ; USER=[my sudoers user] ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/gconftool --get /system/http_proxy/port | 19:41 |
| k0rupted | hey, using the ecrypted home dir during the install... and user changed his password, and now can't login... anyone know how to change the passphrase? | 19:41 |
| trism | pistyman: are you sure you need cdemu to do this, what are you trying to do with the windows 7 iso? | 19:41 |
| tonyyarusso | dpanda: Honestly, probably anything on the market will be plenty sufficient for those needs. Since you're considering virtualization and image editing, I'd be inclined to spend more on extra RAM at the expense of some CPU grunt if it comes down to that. Searching Newegg reviews for "Ubuntu" and "Linux" is a good way to check compatibility for me. | 19:41 |
| MikeChelen | Mike_lifeguard: users can be referenced by their id number, dont think the system really cares which gets used | 19:41 |
| sebsebseb | Aijse: there's probably a ppa, also #kubuntu is the KDE channel | 19:41 |
| BoxMagnet | sorry Mike_lifeguard was just trying to help :-( | 19:42 |
| pistyman | trism: i am trying tt install windows 7 but i dont have a dvd burner to burn it | 19:42 |
| trism | pistyman: you should just be about to mount it (mount -o loop windows_whatever.iso /mnt) | 19:43 |
| Aijse | sebsebseb, yes but i'm not gonna run it on kubuntu, it allreaady is possible to run it on kubuntu ... im interested in using 2.2 on ubuntu 9.04 | 19:43 |
| Mike_lifeguard | BoxMagnet: It's no problem, I just don't want you going on a wild goose chase wasting your time answering a question I didn't ask :) | 19:43 |
| trism | pistyman: err, need a sudo in there first | 19:43 |
| dpanda | tonyyarusso: so say intel core2duo, compatible motherboard [will search as u said] and 4 gigs of ram should do me good? | 19:43 |
| BoxMagnet | Mike_lifeguard, understood. | 19:43 |
| sebsebseb | Aijse: you can run KDE apps inside Gnome/Ubuntu yes | 19:43 |
| goose | aaaaaaaah highlight Mike_lifeguard!! :p | 19:43 |
| tonyyarusso | dpanda: Sounds good to me. (Better than anything I have...) | 19:43 |
| Mike_lifeguard | :OOO | 19:43 |
| Aijse | sebsebsen, no waaaaaaaaay | 19:43 |
| BoxMagnet | Mike_lifeguard, user id 1000 = the user logged on of im not mistaken | 19:43 |
| sebsebseb | !ppa > Aijse | 19:44 |
| ubottu | Aijse, please see my private message | 19:44 |
| pistyman | trism: so what do i type into that termninal? sudo mount -o loop windows_whatever.iso /mnt ? | 19:44 |
| trism | pistyman: although this won't really help you install it, but cdemu won't really either... | 19:44 |
| dpanda | tonyyarusso: ah people here are buying core i5 and core i7s like crazy :) and i am struck with a very incompatible old cheap celeron lenovo laptop | 19:44 |
| tonyyarusso | dpanda: I have a P4 on my most powerful machine :P | 19:45 |

| noren | i have just migrated from kubuntu to ubuntu !! how to get a pure ubuntu install | 20:10 |
| BoxMagnet | !puregnome | 20:10 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 20:10 |
| iceroot | !puregnome | noren | 20:10 |
| ubottu | noren: please see above | 20:10 |
| kakazza | Thanks | 20:10 |
| kakazza | I take it, I can't turn my 32bit ubuntu into a 64bit ubuntu *fairly* easily? | 20:11 |
| kakazza | or, at all | 20:11 |
| iceroot | kakazza: no | 20:11 |
| noren | oh i have already got the ubuntu desktop and now want to remove any residual kde packages | 20:11 |
| iceroot | kakazza: you have to reinstall to go from 32bit to 64bit | 20:11 |
| kakazza | I see :/ | 20:11 |
| iceroot | noren: then read the link ubottu gave you | 20:11 |
| noren | !puregnome | 20:12 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 20:12 |
| iceroot | noren: without the sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 20:12 |
| BoxMagnet | iceroot, can kakazza keep his .folders for settings? | 20:13 |
| noren | iceroot: i am trying to get the best performance out of my old laptop.. kde was not working properly it was too heavy | 20:14 |
| BoxMagnet | noren, xfce is nice... | 20:14 |
| iceroot | BoxMagnet: what? | 20:14 |
| BoxMagnet | iceroot, all the .folders in /home for settings | 20:14 |
| iceroot | noren: best performance with official ubuntu = xubuntu | 20:14 |
| noren | BoxMagnet: installing only xfce will do or i have to get the complete xubutnu-desktop | 20:14 |

| BoxMagnet | daevski, ok. | 20:16 |
| kp | Hello I have some few queries on ubuntu .....can some one help me | 20:16 |
| iceroot | Hazelesque: why need 5.1.x? and not 5.0.x? | 20:17 |
| noren | i am stuck at consle login only, any parameter i can fix at boot option | 20:17 |
| Hazelesque | iceroot: ISTR that 5.0.x doesn't have stored procedures? | 20:17 |
| iceroot | Hazelesque: sure it has | 20:17 |
| Hazelesque | oh? *checks* | 20:17 |
| sebsebseb | kp: Of course just ask | 20:17 |
| dragonkh | hi | 20:17 |
| iceroot | Hazelesque: 5.0.0 has stored procedures | 20:17 |
| trism | noren: do you have gdm installed? | 20:17 |
| dragonkh | does anyone know of software to manage my server and to manage virtual machines ? | 20:17 |
| iceroot | dragonkh: ssh? | 20:18 |
| sebsebseb | dragonkh: Virtualbox maybe, VMware Server ? | 20:18 |
| Hazelesque | iceroot: ahh, my mistake, although I'm sure there are some features that don't work properly before 5.1 | 20:18 |
| noren | trism: yes i have that but the graphical wont start only stuck at console | 20:18 |
| kp | I'm using fedora11, and I'm kind of getting bugged..... i want 2 know , how stable is ubuntu as anos | 20:18 |
| Hazelesque | but it appears that the department is using 5.0.22 | 20:18 |
| Hazelesque | so I'll just see what version *is* in Feisty... | 20:18 |
| dragonkh | I want a web interface to configure my server and manage virtual machines | 20:18 |
| dragonkh | does such a thing exist even ? | 20:18 |

| ra21vi | how and what I should configure, since my Laptop HDD is getting hotter and hotter for no reason running Ubuntu... | 20:22 |
| BoxMagnet | ra21vi, its getting real hot, or the fan is just running constantly | 20:24 |
| kakazza | it's getting hot in here, I take off all my clothes | 20:24 |

| elops | in bt3 my card work and when i do "lspci" it come up as atheros 5212 and ath0 in "iwconfig" but in ubuntu it says atheros 5001x+ and wlan0? is there a way to force ubuntu to use right driver? i have used google for hours now and i dont find anything that help. probably bad to search | 20:25 |
| elops | help me pls | 20:25 |
| BoxMagnet | ra21vi, mine is doing it too. very hot. | 20:25 |
| kakazza | Are you sure you don't want to ask that in #remote-exploit elops? | 20:25 |

| elops | yea | 20:26 |
| BoxMagnet | ra21vi, mine too | 20:26 |
| elops | why? | 20:26 |
| ra21vi | BoxMagnet: search and digged Google, found many things , but could not get it working | 20:26 |
| BoxMagnet | ra21vi, the only thing i see is if ur fan runs constantly | 20:26 |
| rrreds | wireless device problems | 20:27 |
| ra21vi | BoxMagnet: no, fan is not running constantly, tht would mean I will have to look why my CPU is running with 100% thrust. | 20:27 |
| ra21vi | BoxMagnet: so did you find any solution for yourself.. i think i won't sustain this with such lots heat. That may damage my hardwares | 20:28 |
| BoxMagnet | ra21vi, no not yet. | 20:28 |
| snellcode | ra21vi: get ssd | 20:29 |
| BoxMagnet | ssd? | 20:29 |

| stryda | i downloaded ubuntu off the website for the x64 version right and i set it to install on wubi, and now it's re-downloading it? why? | 20:36 |

| pfifo | kenxx, try to toggle the bootable flag on the dos partition, also you can try not using grub and booting from the MBR of the second drive via CMOS setup (or f11 key or whatever) I myself have found that winblows can be picky and wants to be installed on sda1, so thats where I always put it | 20:45 |
| BoxMagnet | kenxx, well you want to boot the ubuntu partition first, so grub loads, and then you can load windows or ubuntu from their | 20:45 |
| aarkerio | kenxx, try : rootnoverify(hd1,3) | 20:45 |
| hwilde | what does it mean if system fails to boot and just says GRUB loading, please wait... then nothing happens? | 20:46 |

| eVias | i have this problem when i dist-upgrade my ubuntu | 21:32 |
| n8tuser | LewieP-> well to test if your system can handle what you claimed. .. so try the livecd rom or the iso | 21:32 |
| Travis-42 | is there any way to change the display size of Desktop Notifications? | 21:32 |
| eVias | it says gnome-mount, gnome-session, hal, etc. could are left unconfigure because of dependency problems | 21:32 |
| LjL | eVias: are you dist-upgrading to a different version of ubuntu? | 21:33 |
| eVias | so when i try and start my linux it says kernel panic root fs could not be mounted .. lol | 21:33 |
| eVias | jup | 21:33 |
| eVias | upgrading from feisty to hardy | 21:33 |
| LjL | eVias: you do realize that's not the recommended way to upgrade? | 21:33 |

| LjL | eVias: you can't upgrade trom feisty to hardy directly, you need to go throug gutsy. | 21:33 |
| eVias | i know, i just hav no other choice | 21:33 |
| LjL | !upgrade | eVias | 21:33 |
| ubottu | eVias: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 21:33 |
| eVias | cd won t work and iso booting neither | 21:33 |
| vanishing | 29th..and tmr is rc..eh | 21:33 |
| LjL | eVias: neither of those is the way to upgrade | 21:33 |
| eVias | damn i forgot about apt-get upgrade | 21:34 |
| LjL | eVias: the way to upgrade is to use the upgrade manager. however, i'm afraid it's too late now. | 21:34 |
| eVias | what a noob i am | 21:34 |
| eVias | it is .. | 21:34 |
| eVias | lol | 21:34 |
| LjL | eVias: so now you can't boot at all, anyway? | 21:34 |
| eVias | guess it will be one more of an experience with linux | 21:34 |
| eVias | yes i can, recovery | 21:34 |
| vanishing | eVias: what happened? | 21:34 |
| eVias | and am uapt-get upgrade 'ing | 21:34 |
| eVias | says 20 mins to download files | 21:35 |
| eVias | hope it wil fix it | 21:35 |
| eVias | :s | 21:35 |
| LjL | eVias: it might, if not, it might boil down to something trivial like changing /etc/fstab | 21:35 |
| eVias | k | 21:35 |
| LjL | eVias: still, that's the sort of unsupported upgrade that may easily leave you with other half-broken things | 21:35 |
| eVias | i understand | 21:36 |
| eVias | i guess i will be hoping 30 mins more | 21:36 |
| eVias | if it doesn't work i will have to get any cd drive .. that actually works | 21:36 |
| eVias | mine boots on the cd but than crashes when trying to start the install | 21:36 |

| Jonian | hi , i'm probably in the wrong place to ask this but how can i copy a file in every subdirectory using terminal ? | 21:37 |
| eVias | so i thought about upgrading manually .. but didn t think bout the update manage .. | 21:37 |
| eVias | why do i always want to use my terminal ... bad habbit there .. | 21:37 |
| TorchDragon | Jonian: cp -r /target /destination | 21:37 |

| vanishing | alrite | 21:38 |
| Jonian | <TorchDragon> , that will copy target in every subdirectory of destination ? | 21:38 |

| vanishing | Jonian: you want to copy a file to everysubfolder? | 21:38 |

| Jordan_U | debbie2009: You can either boot a LiveCD and resize your swap partition or add a swap file and use it in addition to your swap partition | 21:39 |

| dragonkh | hi - is it easy to upgrade the kernel on ubuntu ? | 22:15 |
| vanishing | daevski: hmm...i know a issue in karmic which relates to this..but not jaunty. | 22:15 |
| vanishing | an issue* | 22:15 |
| dragonkh | can I just do an apt-get install kernel-version and everthing will work ok ? | 22:15 |
| daevski | vanishing: Okay thanks | 22:15 |
| vanishing | daevski:wait,let me google it | 22:16 |
| wizzo50 | any help on here | 22:16 |
| daevski | vanishing: I did google it, and posted on forums today. No luck yet :-p thanks though | 22:17 |
| daevski | vanishing: By the way, this is true of my mom's PC also. completely different hardware. | 22:17 |
| m0r0n | My flash drive says it need root anyone know why? | 22:17 |

| mneptok | daevski: your sound card probably does not support hardware mixing | 22:18 |
| winchesterag | in general what would i need to install to insmod modules | 22:18 |

| vanishing | mneptok: he had different hardwares.. | 22:18 |
| dragonkh | dajhorn: do I have to reboot afterwards - just Im working on a remote server and I dont want to loose it if things go wrong | 22:18 |
| vanishing | daevski: ill keep looking | 22:18 |
| mneptok | daevski: some of this is fixed by improved drivers available in the Karmic kernel. grab a Live CD and see if Karmic fixes the issue. | 22:18 |
| dajhorn | dragonkh: Yes, you must reboot to get a new kernel. | 22:18 |
| mneptok | vanishing: there's not one, single sound chip that does not support hardware mixing. | 22:19 |

| dajhorn | dragonkh: If you are using an official Ubuntu kernel, then it is mostly safe. If you are using a custom kernel or local modules, then be very careful. | 22:19 |
| xyro | iceroot, well, it works fine if i cahnge the port to 99. I guess I'll just keep it like that | 22:19 |
| vanishing | daevski and mneptok: in karmic you can choose sound volume for different apps...but not jaunty.. | 22:19 |
| mneptok | vanishing: as long as the sound card supports hardware mixing | 22:20 |
| xyro | iceroot, I think it may have something to do with the fact that i'm running on a shared server. maybe they have a centralized firewall or something | 22:20 |
| tred | is karmic gonna be a LTS? | 22:20 |
| mneptok | tred: no | 22:20 |
| vanishing | mneptok: right. but he had 2 systems with same issue. | 22:20 |
| mneptok | tred: Lucid should be | 22:20 |
| mneptok | vanishing: there's not one, single sound chip that does not support hardware mixing. | 22:20 |
| mneptok | (x2) | 22:20 |
| vanishing | =.= | 22:21 |
| tred | when will lucid be out in useable form? | 22:21 |
| vanishing | 10.04 | 22:21 |
| vanishing | 04 means april | 22:21 |
| dajhorn | tred: The end of this month. | 22:21 |
| mneptok | vanishing: what if BOTH machines had sound chipsets that do not support hardware mixing, hmmm? | 22:21 |
| vanishing | mneptok: right...... | 22:21 |
| vanishing | dajhorn: he meant lucid. | 22:22 |
| Apocal | Can someone help me figure out this ia32-libs problem on jaunty? It's driving me crazy as I can't use wine or the adobe flash plugin :( | 22:22 |
| daevski | vanishing: sounds volume maybe, but I should be able to share the card with ALSA after version 4 or something, way back in the day (or so I was told today) | 22:22 |
| tred | when i try to run jaunty headless, everything seems to work ok except plasma wont start, all my apps still open up onscreen | 22:22 |

| x86_64 | Thanks | 22:24 |
| BoxMagnet | wizzo50, how did you get the update? | 22:24 |
| daevski | vanishing: Is it wise to partition out certain root folders if I plan to reinstall OS weekly, or monthly? (like /etc and /home and that?) | 22:24 |
| mneptok | daevski: /home, certainly | 22:25 |
| OLD-MAN | hello | 22:25 |
| wizzo50 | adobe install | 22:25 |
| vanishing | daevski: very wise imo | 22:25 |
| daevski | boxmagnet -- gave up on it for today. I might look for an alternative that allows me to control PC no matter who is logged in. I might also look into using SSH instead of virtual... I would really LIKE virtual for teaching though. | 22:25 |

| dajhorn | wizzo50: For a short time, the Ubuntu package would install a flash version that reported a bad version number. Before you do anything else, reinstall the flash plugin, or get it from adobe.com directly. | 22:25 |

| wizzo50 | BoxMagnet: Flashplayer plugin through Ubuntu | 22:26 |
| Travis-42 | Is it possible to change the font-size of the Ubuntu Desktop OSD Notifications that pop up? Mine are tiny | 22:26 |

| BoxMagnet | wizzo50, through synaptic, and now no flash loads or? | 22:26 |
| daevski | mneptok, vanishing: I could partition out /home, but is it needed if I have like 6 HDD in here that I store important things on anyways? I think all I would lose is installed apps and plugins and such -- would those things transend from 9.04 --> 9.10 even if I partitioned /home elsewhere? | 22:27 |

| vanishing | daevski: some settings might not migrate from 9.04 to 9.10 well, and some will. so i would just "back them up" or keep the /home | 22:29 |
| daevski | vanishing: sounds good. I think I will look into it. I like being on the edge with the new releases and I don't mind installing some apps again. Then again, who says I can't dual-boot and have one stable and one experimental? :-p | 22:30 |
