| vr_mex | Please help installing ruby1.86 have this problem http://paste.ubuntu.com/300133/ | 00:07 |
| lukey | jrwcox, the answer is put by the final poster. | 00:07 |
| Bookman | What is the current, fully updated Ubuntu 9.04 revision level? | 00:08 |
| Bookman | kernel level | 00:08 |

| NerveClasp1 | Hello! I have a question: can I somehow run two separated windows of wine in ubuntu? two separated proceses of wine? | 00:08 |
| Bookman | thanks bastid_raZor | 00:08 |
| jrwcox | lucky: okay, I will try in just a sec | 00:08 |
| lukey | NerveClasp1, hi there - what are you trying to accomplish? Running different applications and games? | 00:08 |
| lukey | NerveClasp1, You could perhaps try running them as a different user? | 00:09 |
| enovativ | how can i test if my bluetooth is working on my laptop that has ubuntu 9.04 | 00:09 |
| enovativ | ? | 00:09 |

| NerveClasp1 | lukey, frankly I want to run WoW in two windows in order to have possibility to play with two characters at the same time | 00:10 |
| lukey | ah I see. | 00:10 |
| NerveClasp1 | lukey, so I don't think, that two users will be good, as I need to swith often | 00:10 |
| NerveClasp1 | *switch | 00:11 |
| lukey | Hi NerveClasp1 you can run a command as a different user from the command line did you know? | 00:11 |
| lukey | You wouldn't have to make a seperate Ctrl-Alt-Fx session if that's what you mean? | 00:11 |
| NerveClasp1 | ideal thing would be two windows of wine on separate workspaces | 00:11 |
| === Itaku`sleep is now known as Itaku | ||
| Itaku | is it possible to make network logins that can sync with a USB flash drive? | 00:12 |

| MarkGil | Real obvious question time, but one I can't figure out. How do I tell (from CLI) from version of a program I have | 00:13 |
| MarkGil | apt-cache search xxxx does not tell me | 00:13 |
| usser | MarkGil, most program have -v or --version switch | 00:14 |
| vr_mex | Please help installing ruby1.86 have this problem with apt-get : http://paste.ubuntu.com/300133/ | 00:14 |
| usser | MarkGil, ie wine --version will tell you the version | 00:15 |
| MarkGil | and if it's PHP scripts and non executables? | 00:16 |
| lukey | hi MarkGil, usser is correct also you can do: lukey@Lynysys:~$ dpkg -p xchat | grep Version | 00:16 |
| lukey | MarkGil, usser this will show the version of the package. | 00:16 |
| lukey | MarkGil, usser I hope this helps but if not please let me know. | 00:17 |
| ctmjr | lukey: : dpkg -l xchat does the same thing less typing more info | 00:18 |
| Itaku | i want to setup my schools computer network to run on ubuntu, but i need to know how to make all the accounts on one server computer, make all the computers login to their account over a network | 00:19 |
| lukey | ctmjr, Ah yes - that's much nicer! | 00:19 |
| Itaku | anyone know how to do this? | 00:19 |

| lukey | vr_mex, sorry do you still need help with the problem? | 00:23 |

| lukey | vr_mex, Can you paste what happens when you do: Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] Y | 00:24 |

| Itaku | who here can help a 4500+ network administrator? | 00:24 |
| lukey | Itaku, hi there. | 00:25 |
| lukey | Itaku, I will research for you. | 00:25 |
| vr_mex | lukey, I would imagine it will install ruby1.87 since that is waht it says at the bottom of my paste... | 00:25 |
| isabel575 | how can i remove/purge evolution? | 00:25 |
| Itaku | k so, im a technology directer at a school district, and i got passed to make all the computers linux, so how would i go about making a network login account for 4500+ users and make it automatically sync with a flash drive? | 00:26 |
| isabel575 | evolution mail that is | 00:26 |
| Itaku | director* | 00:26 |
| lukey | vr_mex, I understand that you are trying to install ruby1.87 instead of ruby1.86, is this correct? | 00:26 |
| rjune | Itaku, where you at in MI? | 00:26 |
| ctmjr | isabel575: sudo apt-get --purge remove evolution | 00:26 |
| vr_mex | lukey, no the other way arround i want ruby1.86 installed | 00:26 |
| Itaku | do i really have to say? | 00:26 |
| lukey | vr_mex, ok thank you. | 00:27 |
| rjune | Itaku, I'm in northern, IN, kinda curious is all | 00:27 |
| rjune | up by south bend | 00:27 |
| Itaku | not giving out that information | 00:27 |
| vr_mex | Please help installing ruby1.86 have this problem with apt-get : http://paste.ubuntu.com/300133/ | 00:27 |
| lukey | vr_mex, which ubuntu are you running, I will find a pacakge. | 00:27 |
| rjune | You'll want to use LDAP for the network auth stuff | 00:27 |
| isabel575 | is there a list of apps that you can't delete from the ubuntu default or that you shouldn't or it'll cause damages to the system? | 00:27 |
| Itaku | lol lukey is my quesiton too hard or something? | 00:27 |
| rjune | flash drives *should* be formatted vfat, no user id syncing required | 00:27 |
| Itaku | thing is right now, we use god awful macs, and its setup to login via a network, and sync with the network and flash drive at login/logout | 00:28 |
| vr_mex | lukey, please read the post http://paste.ubuntu.com/300133 it is more involved than just looking for a pkg... | 00:28 |
| powerjuce | is there a way to work with raw files made with dd? i made a raw file of a disc, can i make it into an iso? | 00:28 |
| Itaku | and students can save work to their flash drive and take it home | 00:28 |
| lunatic | join #ubuntu-beginner-help | 00:28 |
| rjune | Itaku, sync what? | 00:28 |
| Itaku | sync all data, desktop icons, history | 00:28 |
| Itaku | plain out everything | 00:28 |
| rjune | syncs the user's home directory to the flash? | 00:28 |
| Itaku | yup | 00:28 |
| lukey | Itaku, yes for me I think :) I am glad more knowledgable folk have since answers because it is good to learn this too. | 00:28 |
| lukey | answered* | 00:29 |
| Itaku | agh, i got till jan 1st 2010 to get all computers in the district to ubuntu | 00:29 |
| Itaku | so i want to start ASAP | 00:29 |
| rjune | if the kid does not have their thumb drive, do they still have full access? | 00:29 |
| rjune | Itaku, how many computers? | 00:29 |
| Itaku | rjune, yeah, it uses network login, so it just wont get synced to the flash drive, but to the network, and next time they use their usb drive, itll get synced to it | 00:30 |
| isabel575 | is there a list of apps that you can't delete from the ubuntu default or that you shouldn't or it'll cause damages to the system? | 00:30 |
| Itaku | and around 3000 computers | 00:30 |
| rjune | Interesting setup. | 00:30 |
| rjune | LOL | 00:30 |
| rjune | and you have until Jan 1st? | 00:30 |
| Itaku | Yup... | 00:30 |
| rjune | running on the Mac hardware? or are you getting all new hardware? | 00:30 |
| bastid_raZor | Itaku: #ubuntu-server may help too. | 00:30 |
| Itaku | I got like 100 copys of ubuntu burnt already | 00:30 |
| rjune | how many people do you have? | 00:31 |
| Itaku | counting all students K-12 and staff, 4,500 ish | 00:31 |
| rjune | No, I mean in your department. | 00:31 |
| Itaku | oh in the tech department | 00:31 |
| Itaku | 38 | 00:31 |
| Itaku | i got some voulenteers too so, it wont be too bad | 00:32 |
| Itaku | im pretty sure I can do it | 00:32 |
| rjune | Itaku, Look at network imaging, don't bother burning CDs or making bootable flash drives. | 00:32 |
| rjune | that's for starters. | 00:32 |
| Itaku | we're gonna just take all the computers down in december for the transition, theres a 2 week break there so its minimal time | 00:33 |
| * laclasse seconds that | 00:33 | |
| Itaku | aww really? | 00:33 |
| doltek | How do I mount my blackberry? | 00:33 |
| rjune | Itaku, yes, really. | 00:33 |
| Itaku | doltek, just plug it in i do belive | 00:33 |
| laclasse | Itaku, yes, what hardware? MAcs? | 00:33 |
| Itaku | it worked for me fine | 00:33 |
| Itaku | yeah macs | 00:33 |
| Itaku | they can install ubuntu right? | 00:33 |
| rjune | Itaku, what do you use for central auth now? | 00:33 |
| rjune | Itaku, Newer ones probably, older ones, maybe not. | 00:34 |
| laclasse | Itaku, so students currently save their work / desktop and have a mac home too? You realize that desktop linux will be different? | 00:34 |
| rjune | PPC might be problematic. | 00:34 |
| Itaku | yup we just got newest of the newest | 00:34 |
| rjune | You just bought 3k macs to run ubuntu on? | 00:34 |
| Itaku | and all students got a 2GB flash drive, 500MB windows formatted, 1.5GB mac formatted | 00:34 |
| laclasse | hopefully its intell cause ppc version of ubuntu was dropped | 00:34 |
| doltek | The Icons show up, but I try to open them and I get an errot message | 00:34 |
| Itaku | it's intel | 00:35 |
| rjune | Itaku, You just bought 3k macs to run ubuntu on? | 00:35 |
| Itaku | we originally got mac's for mac | 00:35 |
| Itaku | but then, 2 months into the school year, we realize its crap | 00:35 |
| rjune | so why switch? | 00:35 |
| ack_syn | lol | 00:35 |
| ack_syn | I hate ubuntu | 00:35 |
| rjune | *sigh* | 00:35 |
| ack_syn | slackware rules o// | 00:35 |
| Itaku | takes about 10 minutes to sync 1MB | 00:36 |
| rjune | Itaku, You can setup a logout script to do rsync. | 00:36 |
| Itaku | so its a very long login | 00:36 |
| rjune | but I don't think that syncing the desktop like that is a good idea. | 00:36 |
| Itaku | why not? | 00:36 |
| rjune | sorry, syncing hte home directory. | 00:36 |
| Mavs | anybody with experience on netboot? | 00:36 |
| Itaku | well still why not? | 00:37 |
| rjune | 1. Lots of irrelevant crap gets copied | 00:37 |
| rjune | 2. the more it diverges, the longer it will take | 00:37 |
| laclasse | Itaku, this sounds a bit crazy to buy new macs, but well it is a supported platform. Switching is fine, however reproducing the 'integration' of macs particularly if you were using some of their server software is going to require a fair bit of work. You need pxe / network deployment, clever dhcp setup, preseed and gold images, printer set up, LDAP everywhere ... possibly a few moddle servers ... | 00:37 |
| rjune | 3. What happens when a file gets modded on both the server and the flash drive? | 00:37 |
| Itaku | oh im getting ubuntu server too | 00:37 |
| rjune | laclasse, moodle is irrelevant, either he has it now or he doesn't. that doesn't factor into this. | 00:38 |
| Itaku | rjune, then it gets modded on the server and flash drive | 00:38 |
| laclasse | Itaku, look at ebox to automate and administrate things on the server side (its built on ubuntu) | 00:38 |
| Itaku | you mean different modifications | 00:38 |
| === Sirisian_ is now known as Sirisian | ||
| laclasse | rjune, er sure, it does help making a good case for linux tho. | 00:38 |
| rjune | Itaku, try to sync them both. which one takes precidence | 00:38 |
| Itaku | right now, server wins | 00:38 |
| Itaku | we realized thats a bad problem | 00:38 |
| NerveClasp | sorry, but how do I run commands from the name of another user? | 00:39 |
| rjune | laclasse, does ebox not suck now? last I looked it was mostly useless | 00:39 |
| rjune | NerveClasp, sudo; man sudo for help, I can't tell you more right now, involved with something else | 00:39 |
| usser | NerveClasp, su - <username> -c "command" | 00:39 |
| rjune | or that. | 00:39 |
| Itaku | i knew sending stuff to do on the computers at once wouldnt be a problem | 00:39 |
| laclasse | rjune, for administering ldap, it has an ok interface, but if you know something better with ease of use in mind ;-) | 00:39 |
| rjune | yeah, Novell | 00:40 |
| laclasse | sure, $$$ | 00:40 |
| rjune | cheaper then the macs | 00:40 |
| laclasse | then let's go OpenView ;-) | 00:40 |
| usser | laclasse, rjune how about Mac server with opendirecory :) | 00:40 |
| rjune | then likely cut his tech requriments in half. | 00:40 |
| Itaku | we originally planned to use macs, but the macs suck | 00:40 |
| rjune | laclasse, do you have any idea the cost of Novell? | 00:41 |
| enovativ | how can i test if my bluetooth is working on my laptop that has ubuntu 9.04 | 00:41 |
| Itaku | im not really concerned about the macs | 00:41 |
| lukey | Itaku, they are good for a fashion statement I think. | 00:41 |
| laclasse | rjune, erm, i work for canonical, so yes. I do. | 00:41 |
| Itaku | we got a $$55 bond last year, we got the money | 00:41 |
| rjune | laclasse, ok, then you know that for a school, Novell is dirt cheap. | 00:41 |
| Itaku | im not worried about in buying new computers, when these macs we got last summer work fine, except for what i need it for | 00:41 |
| rjune | Itaku, anyway, to solve your problem. | 00:42 |
| rjune | You'll need network provisioning, g4u might handle that ( laclasse chime in here if ebox handles any of this stuff) | 00:42 |
| krummlauf | hi | 00:42 |
| krummlauf | i fixed my ubuntu | 00:42 |
| krummlauf | now what do i do | 00:42 |
| rjune | Itaku, that'll let you dump out an image to all the systems. | 00:43 |
| Itaku | i couldnt imagine its too hard to setup network logins on linux | 00:43 |
| Itaku | and im pretty sure theres a way to transfer over mac users to linux | 00:43 |
| rjune | If they're workstations, you'll want to use OpenLDAP for auth, eBox works for that, I use Gosa myself. | 00:43 |
| Itaku | or i'd just get a script to | 00:43 |
| rjune | Itaku, data is easy, scp. configuration... not so much | 00:43 |
| laclasse | rjune, heh i used g4u in the past ... but now i like clonezilla too ;-) | 00:44 |
| c4pt | Itaku: transfer mac users over with what utility? | 00:44 |
| rjune | Additionally, you'll want to setup profiles to restrict access to various things. are you using KDE or GNOME? | 00:44 |
| laclasse | rjune, not sure bout ebox, i have custom pxe setup in the lab | 00:44 |
| Itaku | the way im thinking how it is, just put all the computers on the domain, and setup the server to be where the usernames are | 00:44 |
| rjune | laclasse, me too. | 00:44 |
| rjune | and it's been 3 years since I was admin for a school. | 00:44 |
| Itaku | ive been tech director for 5 years | 00:45 |
| rjune | Itaku, if you're using KDE, you need to learn about kiosktool. | 00:45 |
| Itaku | and right now, we're the first district in the country to use flash drives | 00:45 |
| rjune | If you're using GNOME, I think Sabyon is what you want. | 00:45 |
| Itaku | yeah im using gnome | 00:45 |
| NerveClasp | usser, thank you) | 00:45 |
| Itaku | KDE is too messy | 00:45 |
| Itaku | and gnome has that professional look | 00:45 |
| rjune | Gosa supports pushing some of that stuff out to workstations, don't know about ebox. I don't use that part myself. | 00:45 |
| Itaku | especially 9.10 | 00:46 |
| rjune | You'll probably want to look into cfEngine though. | 00:46 |
| * laclasse likes preseed+puppet | 00:46 | |
| rjune | that'll at least let you run specific commands on the systems. you can do the fire and forget | 00:46 |
| Itaku | ok and, please tell me i can set server permissions on all the computers right? | 00:46 |
| rjune | Itaku, cfEngine + Sabyon should do it. | 00:46 |
| Itaku | because we've already had problems where students found out out to play halo on the computers somehow | 00:46 |
| Itaku | and had to block it | 00:47 |
| Itaku | so cfengine and sabyon? | 00:47 |
| Itaku | are those apt packages? | 00:47 |
| rjune | Itaku, cfengine is. | 00:47 |
| rjune | sabyon might not be the right tool | 00:47 |
| usser | Itaku, jeez man, mount your client's home partitions with noexec, no need to reinvent the bicycle here | 00:47 |
| rjune | usser, push access control profiles for GNOME. | 00:48 |
| Itaku | and cfengine has to be installed on the server right? | 00:48 |
| rjune | and the workstations | 00:48 |
| Itaku | oh fun | 00:48 |
| rjune | there's an agent that runs on the workstations. | 00:48 |
| rjune | Itaku, it's doable. I've done it. | 00:48 |
| xxploit | exit | 00:48 |
| usser | rjune, what access control profiles, to control what? | 00:48 |
| Itaku | 3000 computers? | 00:48 |
| Itaku | by jan 1st? | 00:48 |
| rjune | I had a network of 325 computers all by my lonesome. | 00:48 |
| rjune | Itaku, Give me a week, I could come up with a plan to do it. | 00:48 |
| usser | rjune, the way i have it here, is, fluxbox with a custom ~/.fluxbox dir with read only permissions, noexec for /home, and ssh to administer/push all the updates to the boxes | 00:49 |
| rjune | usser, how many systems? | 00:49 |
| Itaku | right now im planning to take down the student network in the month of december | 00:49 |
| Itaku | and the last half of the month take down the entire network | 00:49 |
| usser | rjune, about a 100 | 00:49 |
| rjune | LOL | 00:49 |
| Itaku | because teachers still need to be able to do grading | 00:49 |
| rjune | usser, he's got 3k | 00:49 |
| raeldenk | hi all | 00:50 |
| rjune | Itaku, I think you could get away with doing rolling blackouts as you migrate rooms / labs | 00:50 |
| Itaku | oh you think this is one building? | 00:50 |
| Itaku | its 7 different buildings | 00:50 |
| rjune | nope | 00:50 |
| Itaku | and some schools, have like, 2 rooms with computers | 00:50 |
| rjune | I think you're best off doing one building at a time as much as you can. | 00:51 |
| raeldenk | how can i choose the file to download between all torrent files with rtorrent | 00:51 |
| usser | rjune, hm... ok, you could setup your own repository, set client to autoupdate, and push whatever updates you want through deb/apt-get | 00:51 |
| Itaku | the K-2 grades dont need 5 computer labs | 00:51 |
| rjune | usser, getting closer. | 00:51 |
| usser | rjune, can pretty much do whatever you want | 00:51 |
| NerveClasp | sorry again, but I need to run this "wine /media/GAMES/Games/WoW/Wow.exe -opengl" under one user from the name of the other.. I tried "su -c wine /media/GAMES/Games/WoW/Wow.exe wowdub | 00:51 |
| NerveClasp | unknown id: /media/GAMES/Games/WoW/Wow.exe" | 00:51 |
| rjune | usser, he's asking how to do it | 00:51 |
| rjune | Itaku, he brings a good point I assumed and didn't mention. | 00:52 |
| rjune | self host | 00:52 |
| krummlauf | ok | 00:52 |
| krummlauf | so i got flash to work | 00:52 |
| krummlauf | and i have xchat | 00:52 |
| krummlauf | what else should i get? | 00:52 |

| carbm2 | I have a local server that runs Samba to share my home directory and my data directories. I am making my TRUE switch to Ubuntu now with 9.10 but I'm slightly confused on the best method to mount my shares on my laptops. I've used sshfs to mount my Documents but the overhead is a bit much. I also know I could just smbmount the shared but is there a *nix type like NFS I should be using? | 00:54 |
| redsnyper | Ok, I am having a hard time getting my sound to work on UBUNTU, anyone help me? | 00:54 |
| rjune | Itaku If you have any openings, I'm looking for new employment | 00:54 |

| charlie5 | hi all ... any ideas on why evolution 'send/receive' button shoulf 'faded out' ? ... the system installed a new kenrell yesterday, and today my mail is well an truly broken :/ | 01:03 |
| Samus_Aran | perlsyntax: CPAN allows Perl modules to be installed from source. there's no way apt-get can install source like that. it does however have dozens of popular Perl modules that can be installed directly from apt-get | 01:03 |
| Samus_Aran | perlsyntax: you can run cpan yourself to install modules not available through apt-get | 01:04 |
| charlie5 | hmm, never mind why ... how can i fix it ? ... :) | 01:04 |
| perlsyntax | i look in apt-get andtype in cpan and nouthing came up. | 01:04 |

| perlsyntax | do i have to install it? | 01:05 |
| perlsyntax | i did this | 01:05 |
| Samus_Aran | perlsyntax: it's part of Perl | 01:05 |
| perlsyntax | ok | 01:05 |
| LordQuackstar | Ok, does anyone know if using PLoP to load ubuntu on an external usb hard drive will give me write access? | 01:05 |
| perlsyntax | maybe i stay with fedora. | 01:05 |
| durt | iholst, there is #kubuntu and #xubuntu for those specific versions. | 01:05 |
| Samus_Aran | perlsyntax: what's the problem ? CPAN is not a program, it's a Perl module, it is installed when you install the "perl" package | 01:06 |
| Samus_Aran | perlsyntax: same as on any other distro | 01:06 |
| Samus_Aran | perlsyntax: perl -MCPAN ... | 01:07 |
| perlsyntax | i know what it is | 01:07 |
| Samus_Aran | perlsyntax: so then why are you asking for a cpan program ? | 01:07 |

| perlsyntax | thanks | 01:07 |
| raeldenk | how can i choose the file to download between all torrent files with rtorrent ? | 01:07 |
| durt | LordQuackstar, nothing to do with PLoP, IIRC. Depends on the grub options on the usb external. | 01:07 |
| LordQuackstar | durt: where does IIRC fit into this? | 01:08 |
| Samus_Aran | raeldenk: what do you mean ? | 01:08 |

| Samus_Aran | raeldenk: do you know how to get to the files screen of rtorrent ? | 01:11 |

| durt | LordQuackstar, hmmm, my usb flash drive has a grub stage....made with unetbootin | 01:12 |
| Samus_Aran | raeldenk: select those files with ctrl+click, then right click on one of them and set the priority to "do not download" | 01:12 |
| durt | raeldenk, highlight with up-down arrow and ctrl-d to stop, another ctrl-d to remove. | 01:12 |

| Samus_Aran | does anyone know what in the world Ubuntu's partitioner actually *DOES* when it sits there for minutes "scanning the partition table" ? there is no scanning needed, "fdisk -l" takes 1 second for 10 disks to gather the same information as Ubuntu's magical partitioner which takes 4+ minutes | 01:14 |

| durt | raeldenk, open another terminal and read, 'man rtorrent' for the full scoop. | 01:16 |

| ubottu | Ryan_: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 01:29 |
| mazda01 | Nikus_Pokus, correct, that's the loopback interface, never comment that out! | 01:29 |
| bazhang | make_up_yor_mind, dont advertise here | 01:29 |
| KnifeySpooney | Nikus_Pokus: actually do NOT comment out the 'auto lo' line! Some of the other people here told me that wasn't right | 01:29 |
| crohakon | make_up_yor_mind; Do you want the client or server? | 01:30 |
| Nikus_Pokus | I just want my wireless network be uncheck at startup | 01:30 |
| durt | Nikus_Pokus, a lot of things won't work if you do that... | 01:30 |
| Ryan_ | Thanks, Bazhang. | 01:30 |
| make_up_yor_mind | should i have posted a pastebin to the link, bazhang ? | 01:30 |
| durt | Nikus_Pokus, have you removed the entry from network-manager? | 01:30 |
| mazda01 | Nikus_Pokus, remove the word auto from your wifi interface. wlan0 or ath0 or something like that | 01:30 |
| make_up_yor_mind | crohakon: I don't think we are on the same page | 01:30 |
| Samus_Aran | Nikus_Pokus: as I said, Gnome Network Manager is often broken. also, the file /etc/network/interfaces is only used when you do not use one of the GUI network managers, e.g. on a server | 01:30 |
| bazhang | Ryan_, sounds like a corrupt iso or a bad burn | 01:31 |
| bazhang | make_up_yor_mind, what does this have to do with ubuntu support | 01:31 |
| isabel575 | should i get rid of firefox? i want to, but i don't know if there are shared dependencies/libs and i don't want to mess up something, otherwise, how do i uninstall it? | 01:31 |
| matthew1 | I know how to access my ext. hard drive as root but I hate doing it every time I want to drag and drop files. Is there a solution | 01:31 |
| taipan_ | ljk | 01:31 |
| mazda01 | isabel575, sudo apt-get remove firefox | 01:31 |
| make_up_yor_mind | bazhang: because i don't know what to do with source code IN UBUNTU | 01:31 |
| Nikus_Pokus | mazda01, how can I do that | 01:31 |
| Samus_Aran | matthew1: put your user into the group needed for hot-swappable disks | 01:31 |
| Ryan_ | Do you have any suggestions for an optimal outcome for the whole thing? | 01:31 |
| crohakon | make_up_yor_mind; perhaps not. You want to use openvpn, as that is what you need to use on linux, correct? You have the source and you are not sure how to compile it? | 01:31 |
| apparle | mazda01: open it by 'gksudo nautilis' | 01:32 |
| Samus_Aran | mazda01: Gnome Network Manager doesn't use /etc/network/interfaces ... | 01:32 |
| bazhang | !compile > make_up_yor_mind | 01:32 |
| ubottu | make_up_yor_mind, please see my private message | 01:32 |
| mazda01 | Nikus_Pokus, gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces then inside the file, look for your wifi interface, it'll be something other than eth0, make it so the line doesn't have auto in the beginning o fit | 01:32 |
| crohakon | !compile > crohakon | 01:32 |
| ubottu | crohakon, please see my private message | 01:32 |
| mazda01 | Samus_Aran, i don't use network manager, it's crap. i only use the interfaces file | 01:33 |
| bazhang | Ryan_, certainly, once you get a good iso/burn should be okay; may take a bit (best to burn at less than 25x btw) | 01:33 |
| make_up_yor_mind | crohakon: did you look at the link i gave you? | 01:33 |
| Samus_Aran | mazda01: right, but the person you're trying to help *does* use it | 01:33 |
| Nikus_Pokus | Samus_Aran, I understood, but Network Manager store somewhere information about the activation of the wireless network at startup | 01:33 |
| Ryan_ | Is isorecoder a good enough program to use? | 01:33 |
| bazhang | Ryan_, sure | 01:33 |
| Samus_Aran | Nikus_Pokus: not in /etc/network/interfaces, it's a registered bug that it doesn't use it. last I checked, this bug has not been fixed | 01:33 |
| crohakon | make_up_yor_mind; yes, and it is only for win or mac. It says if you want to install via source on other operating systems you need to use openvpn | 01:34 |
| Moonraker12 | Samus_Aran: KDE is broken all the time. The only problem ive found with the gnome network manager is that it can land in limbo and require the user to click on it to reestablish the connection (Even if its the only connection) | 01:34 |
| Ryan_ | And downloading ubuntu form the site is ok? | 01:34 |
| apparle | Ryan_: what's the problem with brasero | 01:34 |
| Nikus_Pokus | in /etc/network/interfaces, there are only : auto lo \n iface lo inet loopback | 01:34 |
| Samus_Aran | Moonraker12: what does Gnome Network Manager have to do with KDE ? nothing ... | 01:34 |
| bazhang | Ryan_, sure it is | 01:34 |
| mazda01 | Nikus_Pokus, sorry, then I can't help you. | 01:34 |
| Moonraker12 | Samus_Aran: Sure it does. | 01:35 |
| Samus_Aran | Moonraker12: I did not mention KDE vs. Gnome. I said wicd is substantially better featured then GNM | 01:35 |
| durt | Samus_Aran, n-m has gnome and kde interfaces. | 01:35 |
| isabel575 | mazda01, that didn't do it, i just opened firefox and it works | 01:35 |
| make_up_yor_mind | For the other operating systems supported, there are no precompiled binaries. You will have to get the source code for UltraVPN and its required libraries and build them yourself. *You can also directly get the source code . | 01:35 |
| Samus_Aran | Network Manager is a broken POS. | 01:35 |
| matthew1 | Samus_Aran...oh, lol, obviously. Thanks | 01:35 |
| Ryan_ | Brasero is for Unix systems correct? I can only use a Windows system at the moment. | 01:35 |
| Moonraker12 | Samus_Aran: You are anti one or the other, instead of anting the best from both. | 01:35 |
| Nikus_Pokus | mazda01, ok thanks | 01:35 |
| bazhang | Ryan_, isorecorder will do it fine | 01:35 |
| Ryan_ | K, thanks. | 01:36 |
| Sia- | any alternative for KDiff3 under ubuntu-gnome? | 01:36 |
| crohakon | make_up_yor_mind; Yes, the source you need to download is found at the openvpn website. Did you download the source from there? | 01:36 |
| True_TBird | Anyone know of an alternative to HDD Regen I can run from an Ubuntu LiveCD? | 01:36 |
| mazda01 | isabel575, are you using firefox-3.5? go into synaptic and do a search for firefox. make sure firefox isn't running first with pgrep firefox at the command line. if it's running, kill it with sudo kill the firefox process number that showed up from pgrep. good luck | 01:36 |
| Samus_Aran | Moonraker12: huh ? I don't care about Gnome vs. KDE in any way, shape or form. someone had a problem with Gnome Network Manager and I suggested they try Wicd, which is less broken. period. | 01:36 |
| Moonraker12 | Samus_Aran: Such my giant Aran :) | 01:36 |
| saliak | I have an ubuntu box setup as my router. all of a sudden, today, dhcpd seems to be giving out the wrong dns server addresses.. any idea how to fix that or why that would be happening? | 01:37 |
| Ryan_ | Would any download process provide better results? i.e http vs. torrent | 01:37 |
| jrwcox | okay, still no luck trying to watch dvd | 01:37 |
| saliak | my server/router has the right dns servers, but my LAN clients have the wrong ones for some reason | 01:38 |
| mazda01 | Ryan_, torrent will be faster! | 01:38 |
| carbm2 | Ryan_, torrent!! | 01:38 |
| Samus_Aran | Ryan_: better results for what ? | 01:38 |
| afeijo | I setup a virtual ubuntu to be my web server, everytime I run it, I have to login, and run sudo dhclient to get ip from my router :( what can I do to automatize it? | 01:39 |
| Ryan_ | Yea, I meant about likelyness of corrupt data. | 01:39 |
| jrwcox | error: could not open this location, you may not have access to it. | 01:39 |
| Nikus_Pokus | Samus_Aran, thanks for your advice, I will try wicd | 01:39 |
| apparle | Ryan_: Then I think http is better......... | 01:39 |
| erUSUL | afeijo: set up /etc/network/interfaces | 01:39 |
| Samus_Aran | afeijo: edit the file /etc/network/interfaces, then it will be done automatically | 01:39 |
| === Andorin is now known as AK|vape | ||
| Samus_Aran | afeijo: add a line with this: iface eth0 inet dhcp | 01:40 |

| erUSUL | afeijo: two lines would be enough 1) auto eth0 2) iface eth0 inet dhcp | 01:40 |
| True_TBird | Any ideas on HDD Regen? | 01:40 |
| erUSUL | afeijo: given that eth0 is the interface you want to be configured | 01:40 |
| compintuit | Ohhh I hate it when mbr is killed.. | 01:40 |
| Samus_Aran | Ryan_: HTTP offers no data validation, BitTorrent does. however, there is often md5sums available for downloaded files, in which case it's just as safe as HTTP | 01:41 |
| compintuit | And your latest live cd won't boot | 01:41 |
| erUSUL | True_TBird: what does HDD Regen do ? | 01:41 |
| True_TBird | Alright then, how about this, how can I run chkdsk /R from Ubuntu LiveCD? | 01:41 |
| Z41d | hi | 01:41 |
| erUSUL | True_TBird: chkdsk /R ---> fsck -options /dev/sdxx | 01:42 |
| Ryan_ | I have to say, linux users are way friendlier than those I find in Windows forums. | 01:42 |
| erUSUL | True_TBird: man e2fsck (to see the options aviable for ext3) | 01:42 |
| True_TBird | erUSUL: Its a bootable CD that doesn't even mount the filesystem and checks for corruptions on the HDD and repairs them | 01:42 |
| Z41d | will the karmic koala have vlc as the default player ? | 01:42 |
| bazhang | Z41d, ask in #ubuntu+1 for karmic support | 01:43 |

| nitemovz | Hello all | 01:43 |
| Z41d | it's not support just a question :P | 01:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | Z41d, no vlc is not default player in Karmic | 01:43 |
| jrwcox | okay, so I can watch a movie I burned, but can't watch one i bought.... | 01:43 |
| erUSUL | True_TBird: no is for linux filesystems. for ntfs is better to use windows native apps | 01:43 |

| nitemovz | I want it to mount to a specific folder, but that folder will have stuff in it. | 01:44 |
| bazhang | !torrents | 01:44 |
| ubottu | Jaunty can be torrented from http://hr.releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your architecture.

| nitemovz | How do I do this, without affecting the contents of the folder? | 01:44 |
| bazhang | Ryan_, ^^ | 01:44 |
| True_TBird | erUSUL: I would love to do that, I know how to do it from Windows, but the drive won't boot to the Windows partition | 01:44 |
| Samus_Aran | jrwcox: you need to install the DeCSS library and a video player capable of using that library. it isn't including with stock Ubuntu as it is not legal in many areas of the world | 01:44 |
| cxo | I did an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 dev and now the spellcheck doesnt work in openoffice and in thunderbird? | 01:44 |

| zombu | skiwithpete did the traceroute tell you where it has a hickup? | 03:29 |
| zombu | k | 03:29 |
| skiwithpete | it got to 11, then just started spitting out * * * | 03:29 |
| relajo | i have a 9.04 installation but i want to resize the partition but i cant | 03:29 |
| relajo | how can i go into single user and unmount the root partition and resized it | 03:30 |
| zombu | skiwithpete as long as it don t tell you destination unreachable it s ok | 03:30 |
| skiwithpete | then what is my problem? | 03:30 |
| zombu | the **** is just routers not returning icmp packets | 03:30 |
| skiwithpete | i stoped it, should I have let it keep going? | 03:30 |
| zombu | hmm firewalled apparmor can cause stuff like that too | 03:30 |
| zombu | i had wierd stuff happening with apparmor | 03:31 |

| zombu | if you do an auto install ubuntu will use half of the free space for linux | 03:32 |
| relajo | UglyBear no thats why i want to resize it | 03:32 |
| relajo | zombu its not the case | 03:32 |
| zombu | o.0 | 03:33 |

| * Kanerix headdesks | 04:03 | |
| zombu | the question is why | 04:03 |
| zey | as far as i know | 04:03 |
| zey | apparmor is related with security | 04:03 |
| GuidMorrow | and I was wondering whether "Ubuntu Studio" can be used, because I don't have a driver for this capture cards in "Seven" | 04:03 |
| zey | is that ok to turn it off? | 04:03 |
| UglyBear | Leafsheep, I am. I wa sjust wondering if its nesecarry. I have never used it. | 04:03 |

| humbolt | something is wrong with my laptop after resuming from suspention. I have tons of IO! What could be the source of the problem? Swappiness being set to some weird value by suspend?? | 04:12 |
| zombu | did i mention that i hate apparmor yet | 04:12 |
| zombu | io errors usually indicate a hdd error | 04:12 |
| mzawieska | i have to install in both machines ubottu | 04:13 |

| Cryptic_1onkey | humbolt: Naturally i suspect that your hard drive is on its last legs. | 04:14 |
| zombu | yup hdd bad is my guess too | 04:15 |
| humbolt | Cryptic_1onkey: hdd almost full, true. but I don't see this problem on hibernation and I don't see it when I have plenty space on root neither. | 04:16 |

| zulian | yes | 04:23 |
| webbb82 | ok when i change the icon theme the wifi bar in the top corner still stays dark grey | 04:24 |
| zombu | you might have the infamous broadcom effect | 04:24 |
| zombu | you might be forced to use a windows driver for it | 04:24 |
| zulian | broadcom? | 04:24 |
| zulian | why? | 04:24 |
| zulian | my wireless is atheros, not broadcom | 04:24 |
| zombu | yeah broadcom chipsets had a problem with the physical switch | 04:24 |
| UglyBear | Is 10x a safe write speed to make a boot disk? | 04:24 |
| zombu | yeah i m just saying it might be the same effect | 04:25 |
| zulian | so | 04:25 |
| zulian | what sould i do | 04:25 |
| zombu | try a windows driver | 04:25 |
| zulian | using ndiswrapper? | 04:25 |
| zombu | with ndiswrapper | 04:25 |
| zombu | yeah and see if it works | 04:25 |
| zulian | still can't help | 04:25 |
| webbb82 | zulian: of you can hard wire your internet you can download bwcutter in synaptic that fixed my wifi | 04:25 |
| zulian | i have try it | 04:25 |

| Pilif12p | thanks | 04:27 |
| zombu | what you try to do with it | 04:27 |
| Pilif12p | Nothing, someone on Moznet is convinced that it has a gui | 04:27 |
| zombu | you can install one if you want to | 04:28 |
| Pilif12p | Oh | 04:28 |
| Pilif12p | How? | 04:28 |
| zombu | but that defeats the purpose | 04:28 |
| zombu | apt-get install gnome | 04:28 |
| Pilif12p | Yeah. | 04:28 |
| zombu | or apt-get install kde | 04:28 |
| Pilif12p | Yeah | 04:28 |
| Pilif12p | But why not install desktop and install apache and all those things, i'd think | 04:29 |
| emberetherorb | afternoon all | 04:29 |

| losha | !gparted | 04:51 |
| ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 04:51 |

| maco | gamerx: yep | 04:53 |
| bazhang | gamerx, yes | 04:53 |
| losha | gamerx: it depends. You cant resize an partition while you are running from it, so if it's the root partition you need to resize, you have to boot a live cd. i dunno anything about windows 7, sorry. | 04:53 |

| shavinder | how do i check which is the file system of a partition from CLI? | 05:01 |
| losha | yermandu: sorry, I don't know what to use for BOOT_IMAGE. It doesn't look like Ubuntu grub. Whose grub is it? | 05:01 |
| pipegeek | kankan_: run "Configuration Editor", then change /apps/nautilus/desktop/trash_icon_visible | 05:02 |
| pipegeek | et. al. | 05:02 |
| gzy | fdisk | 05:02 |
| yermandu | :P | 05:02 |
| pipegeek | it's in the System Tools submenu of the Applications menu | 05:02 |
| gtech | maco: http://paste.ubuntu.com/300239/ no it's a long story, that's interesting though | 05:02 |
| shavinder | i am running fdisk but it does not mention the ext2 or ext3 how do i get that? | 05:03 |
| maco | gtech: oh! its a binary, not a script | 05:03 |
| kankan_ | pipegeek:where is conf editor? | 05:03 |
| rezd | file -s /dev/sda1 | 05:03 |
| DigitalKiwi | shavinder: df fells filesystem type | 05:03 |
| pipegeek | kankan_: see above. the gconf editor is called "Configuration Editor" in the applications menu | 05:03 |
| gtech | maco: are scripts interpreted and binaries compiled? | 05:04 |
| maco | gtech: yep yep | 05:04 |
| gtech | maco: and what am I supposed to do with it differently? | 05:04 |
| maco | gtech: when you "./ss" what does it do? (sorry i missed the first bit of this jsut saw a mention of billy's code and wnt "ooh!") | 05:04 |
| gtech | maco: Well that and what am I supposed to do? | 05:05 |
| pipegeek | shavinder, if you just type "mount" with no arguments, it'll tell you the type of every mounted filesystem | 05:05 |
| osirisx11 | Does anyone have any suggestion for boot-time encryption? (karmic) | 05:05 |
| maco | gtech: whats its output? | 05:05 |
| osirisx11 | I'm a huge fan of truecrypt but i don't think it offers boot time enc for linux | 05:05 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu+1 for karmic osirisx11 | 05:05 |
| osirisx11 | thank you | 05:05 |
| osirisx11 | Does anyone have any suggestion for boot-time encryption? (jaunty) | 05:06 |
| ctmjr | ag: you still here | 05:06 |
| gtech | maco: well when I just run ss it runs a program that's already installed on my system | 05:06 |
| pipegeek | osirisx11, your other option is cryptsetup, though I haven't set it up for whole-disk encryption before | 05:06 |
| pipegeek | there're howtos online | 05:06 |
| maco | gtech: you have to use the ./ .... what happens when you do that? | 05:06 |
| shavinder | pipegeek thanks DigitaKiwi thanks | 05:06 |
| ag | ctmjr, yes, I am. | 05:06 |
| gtech | maco: it says the file doesn't exist | 05:06 |
| gtech | maco: even though I'm in the right directory | 05:06 |
| maco | gtech: hang on...are you using proper capitalization? | 05:06 |
| pipegeek | np :) | 05:06 |
| gtech | maco: I can hit ls and see ss right there | 05:06 |
| gzy | ......... | 05:07 |
| maco | gtech: cuz file says "SS" and you keep saying "ss" | 05:07 |
| gtech | maco: yeah, I can play with other capitalization just for kicks though | 05:07 |

| pipegeek | haha, don't actually have an opinion, just seemed like the right thing to say ;) apologies | 05:10 |
| ctmjr | ag: open tvtime then open a terminal window and type aplay /dev/dsp1 the sound should come through but out of sink | 05:10 |

| === Guest6263 is now known as dineone | ||
| losha | |Leech|: I would create new partition(s) on the new disk, then copy the old filesystem *contents* to the new partition, then reinstall grub to boot from the new disk.... | 05:17 |
| ctmjr | !debian | Dhuski | 05:18 |
| ubottu | Dhuski: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 05:18 |
| ag | ctmjr, yes it is dev/dsp. | 05:18 |
| Pilif12p | Dhuski: Just the way it looks, etc. | 05:18 |
| |Leech| | adelie24:I'm not sure if that wil work. I am not the most experienced user and could be considered a newbie to most of the people on here. I know that you can boot a livecd, set it to manually partition during install and install it on a second partition, the upgrade. | 05:19 |
| gtech | maco: heh intertubes clogged for a sec, last thing I saw you say was gtech: cuz file says "SS" and you keep saying "ss" | 05:19 |
| pipegeek | adelie42: I believe if you want to do any sort of nonstandard install, you're going to need the alternate install cd | 05:20 |
| pipegeek | adelie42, unless you want to, like, partition the drive by hand, mount, chroot in, debootstrap and install by hand | 05:20 |
| pipegeek | but I could be wrong | 05:21 |
| ctmjr | ag: you should have /dev/dsp then /dev/dsp1 or some other number | 05:21 |

| scunizi | Dhuski: #ubuntu-offtopic for that type of question | 05:24 |

| Pilif12p | Dhuski: You seem like someone i saw here before... | 05:24 |
| maco | gtech: with the capitals | 05:24 |
| gtech | maco: nope | 05:25 |
| pipegeek | depends on what you want to do, and how you define "good" ;) | 05:25 |
| gtech | maco: although SS gives me command not found, ss gives me no such file or directory | 05:25 |
| adelie42 | pipegeek: looks like could just 'debootstrap karmic /mnt/disk' basically? | 05:25 |
| maco | gtech: are you running "SS" or "./SS"? | 05:26 |
| emergion | I try to run this command: cat /usr/share/syslinux/mbr.bin > /dev/sdd and I get permissioned denied does anyone know why? | 05:26 |
| pipegeek | yeah. And there's a way to specify additional packages to include or exclude, though I'd have to look at the man page | 05:26 |
| gtech | maco: both | 05:26 |
| Dhuski | Pilif12p, What do you mean? | 05:26 |

| losha | emergion: that's not usually how you put an mbr onto a disk. Usually you use the dd command... | 05:27 |
| pipegeek | adelie42: so yeah. debootstrap karmic /mnt/disk; optionally chroot /mnt/disk; mount /proc, /sys/ and /dev/pts, do any additional configuration you want, reboot, rinse, reuse | 05:27 |
| emergion | losha: Ok | 05:27 |

I have tried other distros too but of no avail. This is the last major blocked I am facing with linux. Otherwise almost everything is going ok with ubuntu.

| scunizi | richardcavell: after the official release | 05:37 |
| tonyyarusso | richardcavell: After Karmic is officially released (Thursday) | 05:37 |
| richardcavell | okay | 05:37 |
| ctmjr | ag: the l is a lower case L not a one 1 | 05:38 |
| bigmack83_ | pipegeek, the thread didnt have any info i could use http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=940777 | 05:39 |
| stderr_ | scunizi: Well dunno if it has command line options for that, I was reading this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopCDOptions | 05:39 |
| ag | ctmjr, Yes, I typed a lower case L and the answer came as 'command not found'. | 05:40 |
| bigmack83_ | scunizi, in apt, should i install mythtv front/backend ? | 05:40 |
| pipegeek | bigmack83_, sorry to hear it :( just a quick google | 05:40 |
| stderr_ | scunizi: Thing is, I have like 3 800 GB ntfs partitions, and Ubiquity likes to run ntfsresize on those. Multiple times. And that takes... quite a long time. | 05:40 |
| richardcavell | After Thursday, will Jaunty be deprecated in the sense that the standard advice will be to install Karmic, or Intrepid for long term support? | 05:40 |
| bigmack83_ | pipegeek, yea i googled and found a few pages but its all the same. it should work but it doesnt. | 05:41 |
| ctmjr | ag: that is strange try it with sudo aplay -l | 05:41 |
| pipegeek | ag: you may need to install alsa-utils | 05:41 |
| scunizi | stderr_: stderr_ ubiquity doesn't do the resizing .. gparted does.. if you want get the gparted live cd and do it manually with that.. no matter.. you'll probably still have to resize since windows typically takes the entire hd | 05:42 |
| richardcavell | scunizi: to be perfectly correct, libparted does | 05:42 |
| stderr_ | I mean, I don't want to resize. | 05:42 |
| pipegeek | haha | 05:42 |
| scunizi | bigmack83_: no idea.. never did an install of it. I just pointed it out because often there are instruction on ir remote setups.. | 05:42 |
| scunizi | richardcavell: yea... but new users can't relate to that | 05:43 |
| richardcavell | I know | 05:43 |
| stderr_ | scunizi: I mean, I don't want to resize. I have free unformatted space for my install. It's just that Ubiquity always tries to calculate guided partitioning by default, and I don't want it to do that since it always takes a long time because of the size of my ntfs partitions. | 05:43 |
| bigmack83_ | scunizi, yea. well thanks | 05:43 |
| |Leech| | Are Nvidia drivers organized by card number( 8800GT, 9800GT) or something else? | 05:44 |

| stderr_ | |Leech|: Legacy, Stable, Beta. | 05:44 |
| scunizi | stderr_: in every live cd and alternate cd there is a portion where you can choose guided partitioning, manual partitioning and one other. choose manual | 05:44 |
| bostikforever | Hello please I'm new to LINUX I use an HP 6735... I can't get sound or video drivers | 05:44 |
| |Leech| | stderr_:Would different brands of 9400 GT cards use the same driver? | 05:44 |
| stderr_ | |Leech|: Yes. | 05:45 |
| thedude42 | |Leech|, generally no, nvidia and ati use a unified binary for their cards, and sometimes have lower limits on the cards they support or specific features (like mobile chipsets and tv tuners) that other drivers support | 05:45 |
| stderr_ | |Leech|: The stable branch for the Linux driver right now is 185.* I believe. | 05:45 |
| stderr_ | Well, last time I checked. | 05:45 |
| stderr_ | I was running the beta branch, 190.* drivers. | 05:45 |
| richardcavell | thedude42: mind you, nVidia have legacy drivers going back to the TNT2 | 05:45 |
| |Leech| | thedude42:I was meaning brands like MSI and Galaxy that both use nvidia chi[s | 05:45 |
| pipegeek | Oh. Then yes, they would | 05:46 |
| stderr_ | scunizi: Indeed. But, _before_ it shows me that alternative, it tries to calculate how much free space it can squeeze from existing ntfs partitions by running ntfsresize on them, which takes up a lot of time. | 05:46 |
| thedude42 | |Leech|, right, the brands rarely deviate from the reference design, the drivers support the chipset (GPU) | 05:46 |
| |Leech| | I have an integrated Geforce 6100 and plan on upgrading into something in the 9x series. I am debating the MSI N94GT-MD512 or the Galaxy 95TGE8HUFEXX | 05:47 |

| Wiseman | lemme try this K3b | 05:52 |
| losha | Wiseman: when you say 'burn a movie to a dvd' what kind of file are you starting with? | 05:52 |

| ubottu | Wiseman, please see my private message | 05:53 |
| leaf-sheep | _akahige_: Also, what do you mean when you said some stuffs? | 05:53 |
| scunizi | stderr_: then it looks like you're going to have to put up with ubiquity doing it's thing. | 05:53 |
| losha | Wiseman: so are you just burning the file, or do you need to convert it to dvd format for a dvd player? | 05:53 |
| alexgee | my xp stopped booting and i tried 3 windows installs which all failed so i installed ubuntu studio | 05:53 |
| stderr_ | scunizi: Funny. I should file a bug report :P | 05:53 |
| Wiseman | losha: I want to play it on my home dvd player | 05:53 |
| Wiseman | burning it as data has never been a problem | 05:54 |
| jaychou | so what are you doing | 05:54 |
| losha | Wiseman: then unless your player has divx support, you need something like devede to convert the avi to dvd format... | 05:54 |
| Wiseman | I've done it in windows all the time but I got rid of windows. | 05:54 |
| Wiseman | losha: | 05:54 |
| stderr_ | losha: Most players come with divx support anyways. | 05:54 |
| ctmjr | ag: ok thats just aplay try this sudo cat /proc/asound/cards | 05:55 |
| _akahige_ | leaf-sheep: some stuff meaning... things like xfce settings, taskmanager, xfwm4, various libs and icons... | 05:55 |

| losha | stderr_: Odd, I haven't found that to be true. Mostly philips players, and not all of those, and of those, not all perform well.. | 05:55 |
| Wiseman | tovid is supposed to convert to DVD format | 05:56 |
| Wiseman | I don't know if that's what I need or what | 05:56 |
| stderr_ | losha: I have bought LG, Samsung, Daewoo and Sony. All of those with divx/mpeg4 support. | 05:56 |
| Wiseman | and k3b doesn't say it can burn dvd movies | 05:56 |
| scunizi | Wiseman: www.handbreak.fr | 05:57 |
| losha | Wiseman: tovid *does* convert to DVD format. k3b doesn't convert, it just does the burning part... | 05:57 |
| Wiseman | well brasero burns fine, it just doesn't burn movies | 05:57 |
| thedude42 | Wiseman, burning DVD movies is simply a matter of placing the layout of the directories and files in a way that the players expect | 05:57 |

| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

| pipegeek | xpistos: kay.... that's kind of a weird mode. Why 766? you probably rendered the folder (and all of its contents) not openable by anyone but the owner. The executable bit (1), for folders means "this folder can be traversed" | 06:09 |
| ctmjr | ag: yea do not worry about that now run sudo modinfo saa7134-alsa | 06:09 |
| losha | Vague: why bother? Something you *need* in Jaunty? | 06:09 |

| Vague | losha, I just want to preserve all of my settings O.o the look of my desktop took quite a long time. | 06:09 |
| pipegeek | xpistos: 777 or 755 would make more sense. If you wanted all files to be read/writable but not executable, then you could do something like: "find /path/to/directory -type f -exec chmod 666 {} \; ; find /path/to/directory -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;" | 06:10 |
| xpistos | pipegeek: I tried to reset it to 777 but that didn't do it | 06:10 |

| xpistos | pipegeek: Let me see | 06:14 |
| losha | Wiseman: I think so. A dvd is basically just a set of mpeg files in a slightly customised format (,VOBs) with a few other files (.IFOs). Eventually you'll end up with a bunch of .VOB and .IFO files suitable for burning to dvd. | 06:14 |

| jason____ | somebody, that won't work. you're effectively doing (sudo cat file) > /dev/lp0 - the ">" is with your permissions. Try using sudo -i. | 06:18 |
| syam1 | I just pasted my issue in http://paste.ubuntu.com/300259/ | 06:18 |
| xpistos | pipegeek: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/300262/ | 06:20 |
| pipegeek | syam1, the data's probably still there, you just need to rebuild the partition table. If you don't have the exact sizes of the former partitions in blocks, that may be difficult. | 06:20 |
| vikasap | I am not able to get the Xen installed on Ubuntu Jaunty , Could anyone help me with it ? | 06:21 |
| pipegeek | syam1, deleting partitions doesn't delete their contents; it just removes all record of where they were on the disk (leaving you free to overwrite them at a later date, should you choose to) | 06:21 |
| syam1 | pipegeek, that is exactly my problem is. | 06:21 |
| pipegeek | ah | 06:21 |
| xpistos | pipegeek: That is from my sshfs share on the entire Storage folder that I am having trouble with | 06:21 |
| pipegeek | syam1, well, you could grep the disk looking for filesystem headers | 06:21 |
| yoyoned | somebody: maybe you should use lpr instead of sendingig date directly to the device | 06:21 |
| syam1 | Is there a solution to this? | 06:21 |
| pipegeek | a huge drag, but doable | 06:21 |
| ag | ctmjr, no, it shows 'command not found' and when I use the command as root it shows only one card i.e. the HDA-Intel. | 06:21 |
| pipegeek | xpistos, OK, checking it out | 06:21 |
| Tracy-P | I'll do a dist-upgrade and get back to this after some sleep. | 06:22 |
| losha | syam1: Some people report success restoring a deleted partition table using the program 'testdisk' http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk | 06:22 |
| somebody | Here: sudo -i cat embossing/emboss\ test.brl > /dev/lp0 | 06:22 |
| syam1 | I have very imp information on the NTFS partitions which is needed to be recovered. | 06:22 |
| somebody | I still get the error | 06:22 |
| losha | syam1: see also http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/Partition-Rescue.html#AEN102 | 06:23 |
| jason____ | somebody, no. Run "sudo -i". This will put you in a shell with superuser permissions. Then run cat file > /dev/lp0 | 06:23 |
| losha | syam1: note that it may not be possible to recover from what you've done... | 06:23 |
| somebody | Okay | 06:23 |
| somebody | Lol | 06:23 |
| pipegeek | syam1, your pastebin says you installed gpart. gpart is the tool you'll need to find the lost filesystems. | 06:24 |
| pipegeek | syam1, it'll tell you where it thinks the filesystems begin and end. You can then use fdisk to create new partitions at those locations, and see if they'll mount | 06:25 |
| syam1 | How do I find it? I'm sorry. But, I'm new to Ubuntu. | 06:25 |
| pipegeek | syam1, no prob. So, boot from a livecd (if you don't have an installed system remaining), and sudo apt-get install gpart. Then do sudo gpart /dev/sda. This'll tell you what it believes your partition table probably should look like. It'll take a longish time, as it's searching the whole disk | 06:26 |
| pipegeek | xpistos, sorry to keep you waiting. Hold on | 06:26 |
| frybye | Hi - re WindowsEasy-Transfer system - anybody used it - how much does it manage automatically and how much does one still have to do by hand? | 06:26 |

| q0_0p | how do i delete all files found using locate command | 06:28 |
| syam1 | Pipegeek, ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install gpart | 06:28 |
| syam1 | Reading package lists... Done | 06:28 |
| syam1 | Building dependency tree | 06:28 |
| syam1 | Reading state information... Done | 06:28 |
| syam1 | Package gpart is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 06:28 |
| syam1 | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 06:28 |
| syam1 | is only available from another source | 06:28 |
| syam1 | E: Package gpart has no installation candidate | 06:28 |
| pipegeek | xpistos: OK, so I'm less interested in what sshfs has to say then the actual permissions. I should have told you to log in locally. And while you're at it, please tell me the permissions of every directory in the path to Storage/ | 06:28 |
| pipegeek | syam1: you need to add the universe and multiverse repositories, I believe. This can be done from the "software sources" control panel | 06:29 |
| xpistos | pipegeek: Ok let me get that | 06:29 |
| syam1 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/300265/ | 06:29 |
| pipegeek | syam1: right. That's because the installer's not actually on the livecd, nor is it (likely) in the "main" repository. Add universe and multiverse, then try again | 06:30 |

| alkisg | ltspadmin: better ask this in #ltsp | 06:34 |
| xpistos | pipegeek: ok how do I change the owner | 06:34 |

| q0_0p | pipegeek, what if i do locate something > file.txt | 06:35 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, and delete what file.txt outputs | 06:35 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, ? | 06:35 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p, that works too | 06:36 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, i dont know how to delete my output in file.txt | 06:36 |
| pipegeek | again, make sure you run locate with a filter, or you'll end up deleting everything | 06:36 |
| pipii | Hello | 06:36 |
| pipegeek | ooh | 06:36 |
| Azeotrope | Anyone knows what are the variables I can put in a file name to be the actual date? in need something like backup-21-10-2009 | 06:37 |
| pipegeek | well, just pipe the contents of the file into that xargs command above | 06:37 |
| pipegeek | ie, | 06:37 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p, xargs -l 100 rm < file.txt | 06:37 |
| ag | pipegeek, I already installed alsa-utilis. Thanks. | 06:37 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p, or, alternatively, if the file isn't very long, you could go with "rm `cat file.txt`" | 06:38 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, thanx i learned something | 06:38 |
| pipegeek | np :) | 06:38 |
| pipii | I've been using ssh tunneling + local socks to proxify through my server, is there a package to easy setup an auth socks5 proxy, without needing to open the ssh connection everytimes? | 06:38 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, -l 100 is for the first 100 lines | 06:38 |
| ctmjr | ag: well am about out of ideas try this and see if this module get's loaded first sudo rmmod saa7134-alsa then sudo modprobe saa7134-oss | 06:38 |
| pipegeek | oh I'm a big idiot | 06:38 |
| pipegeek | hold on, q0_0p | 06:38 |
| xpistos | pipegeek: I don't know what happened but it s working again? | 06:38 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p: no it's not | 06:39 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p: what it does is to parcel out the contents of the file | 06:39 |
| xpistos | I didn't get to do the chown on it though cause I didn't have the correct params | 06:39 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p: it removes 100 files at a time | 06:39 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, oh | 06:39 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p: that way you don't end up with a really really really long command line that overflows | 06:39 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, can i just do cat rm file.txt? | 06:39 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, i dont have a lot of files i want to delete | 06:40 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p: doesn't file.txt contain a list of file? | 06:40 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, yes | 06:40 |
| pipegeek | oh oh | 06:40 |
| pipegeek | sorry, misread | 06:40 |
| q0_0p | when doing locate search > file.txt | 06:40 |
| pipegeek | "cat rm file.txt" is meaningless, | 06:40 |
| pipegeek | but you could do "rm `cat file.txt`" (note the backticks) | 06:40 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, alright | 06:40 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, oh so its like two commands in one | 06:41 |
| pipegeek | (the backticks mean, "substitute whatever I get by running this command for the command", so you end up with "rm file1 file2 file3" etc | 06:41 |
| pipegeek | hmm, actually, that's not safe | 06:41 |
| pipegeek | yeah, don't do that | 06:41 |
| pipegeek | just do "xargs rm < file.txt" | 06:41 |
| yaris123456789 | is it possible to "pause" a running process ? does it consume resource to remain in the paused status ? | 06:42 |
| pipegeek | or "cat file.txt | xargs rm" (which is equivalent) | 06:42 |
| maco | yaris123456789: ctrl+z pauses | 06:42 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, cool | 06:42 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, i guess i will start reading xargs man pages | 06:42 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, to fully understand | 06:42 |
| yaris123456789 | maco: possible to do it from command line ? | 06:42 |
| pipegeek | righto | 06:42 |
| yaris123456789 | maco: looking for a command | 06:42 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, thx for guiding me in the right direction | 06:43 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p: xargs just takes whatever it reads on stdin and sticks it on the end of the command line | 06:43 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, ah i c | 06:43 |
| ag | ctmjr, as adviced the first module loaded but the second one said 'FATAL: Module saa7134_oss not found'. | 06:43 |
| maco | yaris123456789: to a process that isnt running in that shell? | 06:43 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p: so "echo 'bloop' | xargs rm" ends up running "rm bloop" | 06:43 |
| yaris123456789 | maco: process runs in background | 06:43 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, but bloop is not a file | 06:43 |
| yaris123456789 | maco: perhaps pause it via its PID | 06:43 |
| pipegeek | or fleep, flort, foobaz as the case may be | 06:43 |
| pipegeek | right, that was just an example | 06:43 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, ah | 06:43 |
| maco | yaris123456789: ooo hmm not sure on that. i know if its the foreground process, you hit ctrl+z | 06:43 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, i understand now | 06:44 |
| pipegeek | "echo 'bloop' | xargs flort" turns into "flort bloop" | 06:44 |
| pipegeek | coolbeans | 06:44 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, why dont i use || instead of --> | ? | 06:44 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p they mean different things. "|" means "take the output of the preceding command, and tie it to the input of the next one", so that when the first one prints, the second one reads | 06:44 |
| losha | yaris123456789: yes, you can suspend a process by sending is a STOP signal, then continue it by sending a CONT signal... | 06:44 |
| pipegeek | q0_0p: "||" means "or" | 06:45 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, gotcha | 06:45 |
| pipegeek | completely unrelated | 06:45 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, cool | 06:45 |
| q0_0p | pipegeek, thx for helping me out | 06:45 |
| pipegeek | np :) | 06:45 |
| pipegeek | if you were to use "||" instead, it would end up meaning "stop at the first command that succeeds". | 06:46 |
| pipegeek | counterintuitively | 06:47 |
| pipegeek | shutting up now | 06:47 |
| emberetherorb | lol | 06:47 |

| hyperstation01 | hmm no one wants to answer it huh | 07:13 |
| pipegeek | Azeotrope, my guess would be ro.archive.ubuntu.com is down at the moment.... which wouldn't surprise me, as someone else was saying something similar earlier | 07:13 |
| pipegeek | yeah, looks like it | 07:14 |
| pipegeek | try switching mirrors | 07:14 |

| pipegeek | Azeotrope, that shouldn't be a problem :) | 07:14 |

| pipegeek | ok, then what toolkit? | 07:16 |
| Ihateapache | I'm making the problem worse | 07:17 |
| Ihateapache | i deleted the apache configuration | 07:17 |

| Ihateapache | anyone think i should just run rm -rf and fuck it | 07:18 |
| Ihateapache | rm -rf * | 07:18 |
| Ihateapache | make all the pain go away | 07:18 |
| bfdhud | anyone? | 07:18 |
| elky | Ihateapache, please dont suggest that ever. | 07:18 |
| CWinLx | I'm trying to browse to a dir but I get Permission denied | 07:19 |
| Ihateapache | "rm -rf *" kills your hd, dont run it guys | 07:19 |
| pipegeek | I made the horrible horrible mistake of suggesting that as a joke in this channel two years ago. never again. | 07:19 |
| CWinLx | shouldn't "su cd dir" work? | 07:19 |
| CWinLx | @Zeus01:~$ su cd ~/Unknown id: cd | 07:19 |
| Ihateapache | i removed apaches config directory | 07:19 |
| Ihateapache | how does i rebuild | 07:19 |
| CWinLx | @Zeus01:~$ su cd ~/ | 07:19 |
| CWinLx | Unknown id: cd | 07:19 |
| CWinLx | why do I get this probme? | 07:20 |
| stew | CWinLx: do you have a user named "cd" on your system? | 07:20 |
| pipegeek | CWinLx, su doesn't work that way | 07:20 |
| CWinLx | ohh | 07:20 |
| Ihateapache | su -c (command here) | 07:20 |
| Ihateapache | or | 07:20 |
| CWinLx | I'm trying to get into this dir | 07:20 |
| CWinLx | and permission denied | 07:20 |
| Ihateapache | sudo su | 07:20 |
| Ihateapache | then enter your pw | 07:20 |
| Ihateapache | then give it 777 | 07:20 |
| jason____ | I believe the standard Ubuntu solution to this is to use "sudo -i" | 07:20 |
| CWinLx | 777 can't be good | 07:21 |
| pipegeek | CWinLx, also, cd isn't a program that you can just run as root---you need to start a shell as root, then cd in | 07:21 |
| Ihateapache | it would be a last resort | 07:21 |
| stew | CWinLx: its not good | 07:21 |
| pipegeek | sudo su - like Ihateapache said | 07:21 |
| CWinLx | so why is he saying this | 07:21 |
| pipegeek | just become root for the moment, then "exit" when you're done being root | 07:21 |
| pipegeek | ok, beddie bie for pipegeek | 07:22 |
| pipegeek | night folks | 07:22 |
| CWinLx | good night | 07:22 |
| johntramp | where is the grub config on the live cd? | 07:22 |

| Azeotrope | how much swapt do you need when you have 4 gb of ram? 8 gb?? | 07:23 |
| johntramp | Azeotrope: that was always the rule-of-thumb, swap=2*ram | 07:23 |
| monkeyman | how do i make packages that are available for backtrack available in ubuntu? | 07:24 |
| Azeotrope | johntramp, isn't that too much? i barely use 2% | 07:24 |
| nickapalooza | no, it's true | 07:24 |
| fool__ | monkeyman: sudo aptitude install nmap etc.... | 07:25 |
| johntramp | Azeotrope: it sucks when you run out of swap.... unless the hdd space is limited i'd use 8gb | 07:25 |
| Ihateapache | if you have 4 gigs of ram, you just need 512, just in case | 07:25 |
| Omen20 | hiffy, from what ive heard the 64bit version of Ubuntu has awful flash support. Anyone have any experience? | 07:25 |

| nickapalooza | chilling in ubuntu channel.. | 07:26 |
| jason____ | Azeotrope, Very little, unless you want to hibernate, in which case you need 4GB | 07:26 |

| sam_ | how i install games on ubuntu | 08:17 |
| iceroot | sam_: depending on the game | 08:17 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: fire up package manager - look for games.. | 08:17 |
| faragos | Thank you for having fun greeting | 08:17 |
| losha | nic1: one of the bug reports says: "I have seen several folks report similarly, and each case, they had a local/private copy of qt4 installed on their box somewhere. Please double-check if that is the case." Does that apply to you? | 08:18 |
| fool__ | something's really wrong with your dpkg nic1 | 08:18 |
| sam_ | but a doing every step i could | 08:18 |
| sam_ | i fell | 08:18 |
| bazhang | sam_, which game and installed from where | 08:19 |
| losha | fool__: that's possible, but unlikely... | 08:19 |
| nic1 | losha: fool__ how can i check my qt4?? | 08:19 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: claifyu what you are doing. | 08:19 |
| optimizer | q | 08:19 |
| sam_ | i am try to play call of duty 4 | 08:19 |
| optimizer | i have a program installed; i know it's at /usr/bin/fbsetbg how do I query apt or dpkg for wshat package provided this file? | 08:19 |
| nic1 | fool__: i am understanding that something is wrong with my dpkg but couldn't findout what is the problem.. | 08:19 |
| losha | nic1: try locate libQtXml for starters | 08:19 |
| sam_ | its on iso(windows version) | 08:19 |
| iceroot | !wine | sam_ | 08:20 |
| ubottu | sam_: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 08:20 |
| sam_ | i triede wine | 08:20 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: if you want to run windows games you need to uise WINE and theres no guarentees that any of them wil work with wine | 08:20 |
| iceroot | sam_: then post a detailed question please | 08:20 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: check the wine app database for the specific ga,e | 08:20 |
| iceroot | sam_: in one line | 08:20 |
| Dr_Willis | !appdb | sam_ | 08:20 |
| ubottu | sam_: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 08:20 |
| bazhang | sam_, check the appdb it may or may not work | 08:20 |
| Dr_Willis | now we have the actual 'question' boiled down to the actual problem :) | 08:20 |
| bazhang | though cod4 does work if memory serves | 08:21 |
| sam_ | ok thanks for the help | 08:21 |
| sam_ | ? | 08:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Last game ive tried in wine is Plants Vs Zombies :) | 08:21 |
| teolicy | As of late I've been getting hash sum mismatches when doing apt-get upgrade (and bzip2 error on apt-get update). Changing my source servers in /etc/apt did no good (tried 4), neither did apt-get clean nor did borrowing the neighbour's wifi connection for the test. I tried both 9.04 and 9.10, and was totally at a loss for the reason (started thinking crazy things, like bad hardware in my ISP's caching server). Searching forums, I found | 08:22 |
| teolicy | suggestion to switch from http:// to ftp://, and lo and behold, the problem disappeared. ANY half reasonable explanation for this insanity? | 08:22 |
| Billiard | optimizer: `dpkg-query -S /usr/bin/fbsetbg` fluxbox | 08:22 |
| teolicy | (a particularly notorious package was some recent version of samba-common, no matter what, I failed getting a straight version of it) | 08:22 |
| sam_ | DR_willis play quack 3 arena | 08:22 |
| teolicy | (some packages worked fine) | 08:22 |
| kassah | is there a way to tell which way I am connected to my Wireless Router.. a, b, g or n? | 08:23 |
| iceroot | sam_: quake3 is a native linux version, no need wine | 08:23 |
| ZachK_ | yo yo yo all of ya's | 08:23 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: that new 'quake live' works in ubuntu (the browser based quake game just released a few weeks ago) and see what iceroot said. | 08:23 |
| Sahkolihaa | Call of Duty 4 on Linux - I wouldn't even try it. | 08:23 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: theres also several games out that use the Q3 source engine that are very nice | 08:23 |
| Sahkolihaa | Guild Wars doesn't run that well. | 08:24 |
| iceroot | sam_: go to the website from id-software, download the linux installer and put your pak-files into that dir. its running nativ | 08:24 |
| sam_ | but sir i have a very week internet connection | 08:24 |
| iceroot | sam_: installer is 20mb | 08:24 |
| iceroot | !who | sam_ | 08:24 |
| ubottu | sam_: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 08:24 |
| Dr_Willis | http://en.djl-linux.org/ -- a GPL 'steam like' front end for installing manyt games in linux. (gpl and other licenses) | 08:24 |
| sam_ | can you tell is there any procedure to increse the speed of the internet | 08:24 |
| iceroot | sam_: also tehre is openarena in the repos, its like q3 and free | 08:24 |
| losha | teolicy: dunno. Did the forums have any theories...? | 08:25 |
| iceroot | sam_: buy a faster connection | 08:25 |
| losha | nic1: still there? | 08:25 |
| teolicy | losha: No, it was just what some dude says. | 08:25 |
| sam_ | yes i will | 08:25 |
| Dr_Willis | djl is worth grabbing if you like games :) | 08:25 |
| teolicy | losha: To be honest, it kinda strengthens the bad cache in ISP theory (ftp is less cached than http), but that's /so/ hard to believe. | 08:25 |
| sam_ | but now this time i have to use this | 08:25 |
| kassah | iceroot, any way to get wireless N working... | 08:26 |
| krummaluf | so uh | 08:26 |
| krummaluf | what is gnome | 08:26 |
| krummaluf | ? | 08:26 |
| Dr_Willis | !gnome | 08:26 |
| ubottu | GNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu. To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal. | 08:26 |
| sam_ | what about my question i have asked you? | 08:26 |
| kassah | iceroot, right now the stupid wireless is my bottle neck... rather than the internet connection | 08:26 |
| nic1 | losha: ya here, trying to pastbin the output you asked previously | 08:26 |
| krummaluf | does that mean i can change the look of my desktop? | 08:26 |
| krummaluf | hello? | 08:26 |
| nic1 | but pastebin is not working | 08:26 |
| iceroot | kassah: make a manual connection trough network-maager (add wireless connection) and choose the settings | 08:26 |
| Dr_Willis | krummaluf: yes. the linux 'desktop' is more customizeable then you can imagine | 08:26 |
| krummaluf | im using ubuntu | 08:26 |
| losha | teolicy: if the ftp repo is separate from the http repo, then that implies corruption in the http repo. The only other explanation, that http is corrupting downloads somehow, seems less likely, though stranger things have happened... | 08:26 |
| krummaluf | well | 08:27 |
| Dr_Willis | krummaluf: and ubuntu used gnome for its default window manager/desktop. | 08:27 |
| krummaluf | ok | 08:27 |
| krummaluf | well how do i change it then | 08:27 |
| krummaluf | i hate this brown on brown | 08:27 |
| Dr_Willis | krummaluf: you can install other window managers.., or play with gnome or compiz themes | 08:27 |
| teolicy | losha: That's the thing, I tried four repos. Four! (including us, uk and fr, I mean, they gotta be serious repos). | 08:27 |
| Dr_Willis | krummaluf: explore the settings menus for starters. | 08:27 |
| krummaluf | ok | 08:27 |
| iceroot | !enter | krummaluf | 08:27 |
| ubottu | krummaluf: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 08:27 |
| Dr_Willis | try, then ask :) | 08:27 |
| kassah | iceroot, nothing about speed or network type in Network Manager config for Wireless Networks | 08:28 |
| teolicy | losha: I don't even know how to approach my ISP with this. I mean, telling this to the entry-level support guy in the ISP... I'd die inside! :) | 08:28 |
| krummaluf | i was trhyin to talk to drwillis | 08:28 |
| Dr_Willis | !info gnome-art | 08:28 |
| ubottu | gnome-art (source: gnome-art): install GNOME themes from art.gnome.org. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2-12 (jaunty), package size 26 kB, installed size 204 kB | 08:28 |
| nic1 | losha: can i message you in personal window about the output? | 08:28 |
| kassah | iceroot, unless that's what a MTU is? | 08:28 |
| Dr_Willis | krummaluf: the gnome-art tool also lets you install extra theme 'parts' but theres a lot of themes i9n the repos by default. | 08:28 |
| iceroot | kassah: hm, and your card support N? like the AP? | 08:28 |
| sam_ | bot | 08:28 |
| kassah | iceroot, the AP is N.. yeah they made me install it when I got the connection | 08:28 |
| halega | krummaluf, go System -> Preferences -> Appearance and select a new theme | 08:28 |
| teolicy | losha: It has the bad keywords 'hash', 'corrupt', 'your fault', 'not sure' and (drums) 'linux'!! (/me runs away in fear, screaming "Oh no, just not Linux!") | 08:29 |
| Dr_Willis | krummaluf: many of the 'looks' are handled by various 'theme parts' such as the icons, window decoration, and widgets. yuou can pick and choose. and tweak all day long | 08:29 |
| kassah | iceroot, the card is an Intel ABGN integrated | 08:29 |
| teolicy | :) | 08:29 |
| sam_ | some one tell me about slow inter net connection | 08:29 |
| iceroot | kassah: i dont know if it is supporting n | 08:29 |
| === mab_ is now known as Guest97311 | ||
| iceroot | kassah: dont know the card | 08:29 |
| Nitrodist | !ask | 08:29 |
| ubottu | 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. :-) | 08:29 |
| kassah | iceroot, Intel 4965 ABGN | 08:29 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: if its slow its slow. what sort of answer are you expecting? | 08:29 |
| losha | teolicy: well, they are all mirrors, so a bad file in the main one would just be replicated. Can you download the same file via http and ftp and compare them? Then you'd need to talk to someone running the servers I guess. ISP would be my last port of call.. | 08:30 |
| kassah | iceroot, hmm | 08:30 |
| losha | nic1: you can PM me if you must... | 08:30 |
| teolicy | losha: that's quite a good idea. I'll see if I still have the URL. | 08:30 |
| kassah | well I gotta install Windows at some point anyway... maybe I'll do that and see how the speed differs | 08:30 |
| sam_ | dr_willis i know that ,but is there any procedure to increse the speed | 08:30 |
| kassah | if it doesn't... then I know it's the connection | 08:31 |
| iceroot | sam_: buy a faster connection | 08:31 |
| nic1 | losha: libQtDBus is there in two locations on my machine | 08:31 |
| sam_ | i am using mobile for connecting internet | 08:31 |
| losha | nic1: Aha. which two locations? | 08:31 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: if the servers are only giving you stuff at 10k/s then it wont matter.. but theres not any magical trick to make your dialup run as fast as a T1 | 08:31 |
| sam_ | i am a computer student , i dont have to much money for bying the expensive net connection | 08:32 |
| krummaluf | lol | 08:32 |
| losha | sam_: and if there were, the isps that sell faster connections for more money would find a way to cripple it... | 08:32 |
| docmax | whats the correct packet name for adding the kde desktop env.? | 08:32 |
| iceroot | docmax: kubuntu-desktop | 08:32 |
| docmax | thanks | 08:33 |
| sam_ | losha thanks | 08:33 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: go to some place that has free wireless and use that I guess. | 08:33 |
| Nitrodist | or university | 08:34 |
| losha | nic1: Um, I don't think my client accepts PMs... | 08:34 |
| nic1 | losha: you there? | 08:34 |
| Nitrodist | or cruise in your neighborhood for WEP routers/open routers | 08:34 |
| nic1 | losha: ok forget about PM, my locate libQtDBus gives it as present in two locations, is that a problem?? | 08:34 |
| alyssum | I'm looking for help on setting up LDAP in Karmic. I have checked the docs already but they are out of date (filed a bug against them already). I started a Ubuntu forum post but no responses. Is anyone here running LDAP in Karmic?? | 08:35 |
| sam_ | dr_willis will you tell me ,how i open the mobile net configuration option from terminal | 08:36 |
| losha | nic1: I think so. I think that's exactly what the bug report was saying. You have two different versions of libQrDBus, one of which is missing something that skype depends on. Where exactly are the two files? | 08:36 |
| iceroot | alyssum: #slapd and #ubuntu+1 | 08:37 |
| nic1 | losha: /usr/share/qt4/lib/libQtDBus.so and /usr/lib/libQtDBus | 08:37 |
| alyssum | thanks iceroot | 08:37 |
| nic1 | losha: you there? the above two are the locations? is that's what you are asking? | 08:38 |
| Dr_Willis | sam_: no idea. I dont use mobile networking.. i rarely use wireless | 08:39 |
| losha | nic1: yes, that's what I wanted to know. The error message you gave earlier says that skype.real is using the version in /usr/lib and that's the one that's missing the symbol. There's a way to make it use the other one, but I don't remember what it is... | 08:40 |
| krummaluf | how do i change the colors on this freakin thing | 08:41 |
| Dr_Willis | krummaluf: system preferances appearances - customize your theme | 08:42 |
| losha | nic1: ok, try typing: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/share/qt4/lib skype with the repo version and see if that works better | 08:42 |
| Dr_Willis | krummaluf: or select a different theme, and wallpaper | 08:42 |
| Dr_Willis | krummaluf: try 'Hight contrast large invert' :) | 08:43 |

| xiambax | I installed ubuntu and all worked fine but my video drivers | 08:47 |
| CountDeMonet | intel video drivers? | 08:47 |
| nic1 | losha: skype with the repo version meaning apt-get or from skype.com? | 08:47 |
| JECHO | xiambax whats wrong with them | 08:48 |
| xiambax | so i have an MSI R4350 and installed the drivers | 08:48 |
| xiambax | and when i rebooted my system is stating | 08:48 |
| xiambax | invalid enviroment block | 08:48 |
| xiambax | at grub | 08:48 |
| CountDeMonet | Anyone know why karmic RC won't actually install. boots from the cd, but pressing enter on install does nothing | 08:48 |
| JECHO | <xiambax> that has nothing to do with the video driver | 08:49 |
| xiambax | ok so can i repair grub some how? | 08:49 |
| bazhang | CountDeMonet, #ubuntu+1 for karmic | 08:49 |

| j1mp492 | skype for Ubuntu is so useless impossible to get the mic's to work. | 08:50 |
| JECHO | <CountDeMonet> read what gunbert said to me above. | 08:51 |
| Dr_Willis | given that skype is a closed source app.. its hard for the ubuntu people to 'fix' its problems. it did work for me last i tried it. i did have to move my mic to the front input for some reason i recall. | 08:51 |
| CountDeMonet | JECHO: i did, i am | 08:52 |
| j1mp492 | Dr_Willis: Okey, i tried to get my mic to work for some days then i gave up | 08:53 |

| jitender | but we are not able to install thunderbird | 09:30 |
| jitender | in ubuntu | 09:30 |
| Flannel | jitender: Why not? | 09:30 |
| bazhang | jitender, why not? what version of ubuntu | 09:30 |
| jitender | 9.04 version | 09:31 |
| nrdb | jitender: I use it... | 09:31 |
| jitender | so how we can install | 09:31 |
| psinetic | jitender, what is preventing you from installing it? | 09:31 |
| psinetic | sudo apt-get install thunderbird | 09:31 |
| bazhang | jitender, via the package manager | 09:31 |
| jitender | thunderbird have .exe | 09:31 |
| psinetic | negative | 09:31 |
| psinetic | wait | 09:31 |
| psinetic | what? | 09:31 |
| jitender | and ubuntu not support this | 09:31 |
| psinetic | no no no | 09:31 |
| FloodBot2 | psinetic: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:32 |
| bazhang | jitender, no need for that with ubuntu | 09:32 |
| psinetic | thunderbird works in ubutnu | 09:32 |
| jitender | then wat is needed | 09:32 |
| psinetic | jitender, go into terminal, and type this: | 09:32 |
| psinetic | sudo apt-get install thunderbird | 09:32 |
| jitender | what | 09:32 |
| bazhang | jitender, you need to install your software from the package manager, not 3rd party web sites | 09:32 |
| nrdb | jitender: System->Admisitration->Synaptic .. in the search type "thunderbird" and install it. | 09:33 |
| deo | es-web: depends on the laptop manufacturer usually.. | 09:33 |
| jitender | psinetic, next step | 09:33 |
| bazhang | jitender, synaptic package manager is how you do it, or via add/remove, or the command line via the terminal | 09:33 |
| psinetic | jitender, what do you mean next step? it should install | 09:34 |
| bazhang | jitender, that is it. there is no second step | 09:34 |
| jitender | terminal | 09:34 |
| psinetic | jitender, did it install it already? | 09:34 |
| jitender | ok its installing | 09:34 |
| jitender | yes | 09:34 |
| bazhang | jitender, in future, use the package manager | 09:34 |
| jitender | ok | 09:34 |
| jitender | i will | 09:35 |

| PSP | is thier a way of making music in ubuntu?? | 09:35 |
| PSP | like fruity loops | 09:35 |
| DougM | bazhang: in that thread one of the steps is "Next, you should test that lm-sensors works correctly. Run the "sensors" command and check the output. Example output is below: " How do I run the sensors command? | 09:35 |
| jitender | ok | 09:35 |
| nrdb | waterloo: not user friendly.. no history.. | 09:35 |
| PSP | hello | 09:36 |
| bazhang | DougM, cant remember let me check the link | 09:36 |
| psinetic | jitender, also, if you can't find an alternative of the windows-based program that uses .exe, you can run .exe (windows based apps) emulated in ubuntu using wine | 09:36 |
| psinetic | sudo apt-get install wine | 09:36 |
| PSP | helloo.... is thier a way of making music in ubuntu like fruity loops in windows | 09:36 |
| psinetic | if you haven't used it before, worth a try | 09:36 |
| waterloo | nrdb: er.. like a little , keystroke is bad | 09:36 |
| jitender | ok , this will work (wine) | 09:36 |
| jitender | i have intalled wine | 09:36 |

| indraveni | a i have linux, b is NTFS created from a and copied data | 09:51 |
| indraveni | over c I installed windows | 09:51 |
| bazhang | DougM, are you clear there | 09:51 |
| ShapeShifter499 | is it chmod or what?? I need to know, the permission of this files are for root, I want it set so I don't have to use sudo to change them, how do I do that? | 09:51 |

| indraveni | should i search for recovey software that run on linx or win | 09:55 |

| rimvis | hello anybody knows how to fix it i cant restart my PC | 09:57 |
| rimvis | N4N173 syslogd 1.5.0#5ubuntu3: restart. | 09:58 |

| bostikforever_ | rimvis: fix what? | 09:58 |
| mojo_o | ShapeShifter499, it will allow ALL users to change the file. not always the best idea | 09:58 |
| rimvis | bostikforever, when i click on restart it dont restart | 09:58 |
| smoo2 | _Narc_: the parts about mounting at boot aren't any different are they? the share mounts ok, i just can't get it to mount without me doing somehting | 09:58 |
| nrdb | why does "# mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sda2" give me the error "mdadm: Couldn't open /dev/sda2 for write - not zeroing" | 09:58 |
| mojo_o | ShapeShifter499, chown could be better if your special user was part of a special group | 09:58 |
| ShapeShifter499 | mojo_o: I just want my user to be able to change it | 09:58 |
| schmukkk | the notifications are really small | 09:59 |
| ShapeShifter499 | mojo_o: so what do I do? | 09:59 |
| schmukkk | like point 5 font | 09:59 |
| mojo_o | ShapeShifter499, you could create a new group, use chown to change the group ownership of the file and add the user to that group :-) | 09:59 |
| _Narc_ | smoo2: Well, maybe you made a mistake while writing the corresponding line in your fstab file | 09:59 |
| yoavsbg17 | Polarina can you answer me in the praivate chat ? | 09:59 |
| mojo_o | ShapeShifter499, or.. :-) just use chown to make the owner the user you want to change the file :-) | 10:00 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ok... | 10:00 |
| ShapeShifter499 | mojo_o: ok hold on | 10:00 |
| trijntje | hi all. My videocard seems to have died overnight, can someone help me debug this? I know absolutely nothing about hardware | 10:00 |
| mojo_o | ShapeShifter499, sudo chown user:root file ..user being the username | 10:01 |
| ShapeShifter499 | mojo_o: could I do that to a whole directory worth of files needing changing? | 10:01 |
| mojo_o | ShapeShifter499, ok, that's scary :-) | 10:02 |
| mojo_o | ShapeShifter499, do you use the su utility at all? | 10:02 |
| ShapeShifter499 | mojo_o: no | 10:02 |
| mojo_o | ShapeShifter499, if the problem is having to sudo everything, try su. i can't even remember if the root account is enable by default | 10:03 |
| mojo_o | *sigh* | 10:03 |
| ShapeShifter499 | mojo_o: I copied these files from a old partition(things like the desktop) and they are stuck in root only permissions, so can I use chown on a whole directory? | 10:04 |
| _Narc_ | Ok, Update manager is giving me the "Not all updates can be installed message" message proposing me a partial upgrade, and I'm on Jaunty, not Karmic beta which is strange, any idea anyone ? Thanks. | 10:04 |
| BlouBlou | _Narc_: surelly you tryed to update to 9.10, and update failed | 10:05 |
| mojo_o | ShapeShifter499, ahh, then this is ok, yes you can use chown with wildcards, just be carefull you don't hit other things. perform the operation on these files from within a subfolder of your home | 10:05 |
| BlouBlou | _Narc_: now you have got 2 syestems repositories | 10:05 |
| kbp | does anyone know any "pdf editor" that is free? I just need to change a number and a date on the pdf page so I dont need a rich-features one. Thanx | 10:06 |
| _Narc_ | No, that's the strange part, I read the thread on the forum and I'm sure I didn't tried to upgrade to 9.10. | 10:06 |

| oobe | Makavel, if you didnt format them you should be able to easily recreate them using cfdisk | 11:43 |
| oobe | be sure to set it up exactly the same | 11:44 |

| matteo1990 | hi all anyone can help me really fast? I need to know how to make a single video with ffmpeg from 2, sorry for the wrong topic | 11:44 |
| oobe | i mean same space allocated in same order | 11:45 |
| oobe | since the data is already there | 11:45 |
| Dr_Willis | matteo1990: i belive ive seen the proper command line for that in either the ffmpeg or mencoder faq's depending on the video formats theres some options that need to be used | 11:45 |
| oobe | sudo cfdisk | 11:45 |
| psinetic | anyone got a list of really good networking tools/hacking tools/ethical security tools? | 11:45 |
| oobe | should show you unallocated space | 11:45 |
| oobe | Makavel, how can you accidentally delete your partition table | 11:46 |
| Billiard | matteo1990: mencoder vid1.avi vid2.avi -o vid.avi i think | 11:46 |
| _Space_Cace_ | if i was to mount /var as its own partition what would be a good size for it? 30GB? | 11:46 |
| Billiard | matteo1990: i never got ffmpeg to do it well | 11:46 |
| nalcomis | All, this is probably a very simple question, but I downloaded some data from a Usenet group and it is saved as .001, .002, .003, .004, etc files. How do I unzip these? I am used to rar files where the first one is named .rar and the rest are named with numbers.... Thanks in advance. | 11:46 |
| Billiard | matteo1990: you might need to through in a -ovc copy -oac copy | 11:46 |
| ksnp | anyone familiar with truecrypt here ? | 11:47 |
| psinetic | why doesn't ubuntu come prepared and ready with media players that work for anything and ready to play any kind of media without configuration? | 11:47 |
| _Space_Cace_ | i think u need unrar? | 11:47 |
| skiwithpete | hi, has anyone else installed from the RC? | 11:47 |
| nalcomis | hrmmm | 11:47 |
| Dr_Willis | nalcomis: unrar x (or e) filename.rar | 11:47 |
| skiwithpete | am having problems with FF3.5.3 | 11:47 |
| Makavel | oobe: i opened gparted, i am not too familiar with it. I wanted to create a partion on an unallocated space. I dont know what i was thinking and i went to a different menu and clicked on create partition table | 11:47 |
| Dr_Willis | nalcomis: or try unrar -e whatever.00 | 11:47 |
| nalcomis | Dr_Willis, let me give it a try | 11:47 |
| grawity | Dr_Willis: unrar e is a Bad Thing. (See also: tarbomb) | 11:47 |
| FiReSTaRT | psinetic: because most of that stuff is closed source and it goes against the open philosophy.. as long as you follow very simply instructions on the medibuntu page, you should be ready to play mp3's and dvd video in a couple of minutes | 11:47 |
| Dr_Willis | i consider Rar a bad thing,..,but i tend to use unp | 11:48 |
| Dr_Willis | !info unp | 11:48 |
| oobe | _Space_Cace_, i think you dont need a var partition but if you were to use one 30GB is too much maybe 10GB at most | 11:48 |
| ubottu | unp (source: unp): unpack (almost) everything with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.15 (jaunty), package size 10 kB, installed size 76 kB | 11:48 |
| oobe | _Space_Cace_, and even 10GB maybe be wasting disk | 11:48 |
| Dr_Willis | assuming it even is a rar archive | 11:48 |
| FiReSTaRT | ksnp: i've tried it out, but haven't really played with it.. what do you need? | 11:48 |
| Billiard | psinetic: some codecs have licences and stuff i believe, ubuntu wants everything on the disc totally free i think | 11:48 |
| nalcomis | Dr_Willis: I just got this "1-3.7z.001 is not RAR archive | 11:49 |
| nalcomis | " | 11:49 |
| oobe | Makavel, and the / partition is gone too? | 11:49 |

| allel_azer | bonjour | 11:49 |
| psinetic | FiReSTaRT, i've been trying to get my media to work since i've been with ubuntu and i've ALWAYS got to tweak something. it's still not working. I still can't play dvd's simply by putting them in the computer and opening it, i still can't play one speicific media. one thing ubuntu sucks at, as far as i can see, is media. networking on the other hand, it's excillent at | 11:49 |
| allel_azer | g besoin d'aide | 11:49 |
| nalcomis | Dr_Willis, How do I unzip those? | 11:49 |
| Makavel | oobe: the whole stuffs is just one empty disk right now | 11:49 |
| Dr_Willis | nalcomis: try the 7zip archive tools | 11:49 |
| Dr_Willis | !7zip | 11:49 |
| ubottu | Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression | 11:49 |
| Dr_Willis | !archive | 11:50 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about archive | 11:50 |
| bazhang | allel_azer, #ubuntu-fr pour francais | 11:50 |
| Dr_Willis | nalcomis: whuth the proper 7z tools or install them and use the archive manager gui | 11:50 |
| oobe | Makavel, how many partitions did yo have? | 11:50 |
| FiReSTaRT | psinetic: install your system, follow the instructions from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu and you'll be able to play anything under the sun other than hi-def wmv media, but you can thank Brother Bill for that | 11:51 |
| oobe | i think you may need to seek special data recovery info advice | 11:51 |
| nic1 | dpkg-query: failed to open package info file `/usr/local/var/dpkg/status' for reading: No such file or directory...in what all cases will i loose that file??? | 11:51 |
| psinetic | Brother Bill? who is that? | 11:51 |
| oobe | it will be a hassle | 11:51 |
| === tytytyty is now known as moodoki | ||
| nalcomis | Dr_Willis, what command do I type to install them? | 11:51 |
| Makavel | oobe: I had a partion for windows, a storage partition, linux partition, swap and two unallocated partitions | 11:52 |
| Dr_Willis | nalcomis: fire up the package manager and look for 7zip or check the urls the bot gave | 11:52 |
| Dr_Willis | !fubx 7z | 11:52 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about fubx 7z | 11:52 |
| Dr_Willis | !find 7z | 11:52 |
| FiReSTaRT | psinetic: bill gates.. the big brother.. by keeping certain formats closed, microsoft doesn't allow certain other platforms to play their content.. with that being said, i think i have standard-def wmv files that will play without any issues | 11:52 |
| oobe | Makavel, are you booting in on that machine using a live cd or somthing | 11:52 |
| _Space_Cace_ | what would be a better option? if i were to reinstall the os and did not want to download all the updates again should i manually back up the updates or mount /var on a different partition? | 11:52 |
| FiReSTaRT | psinetic: but hi-def wmv plays with no sound | 11:53 |
| psinetic | FiReSTaRT, that's pretty gay >_>. I hate windows anyways. | 11:53 |
| Makavel | oobe: yeah | 11:53 |
| geirha | nalcomis, Dr_Willis: p7zip | 11:53 |
| bazhang | psinetic, please stay on topic and appropriate for this channel | 11:53 |
| FiReSTaRT | psinetic: btw, install vlc media player (sudo apt-get install vlc).. i've been using that one on both windoze boxes and linux boxes because it has killer support for media formats | 11:54 |
| psinetic | FiReSTaRT, vlc seems to be the worst out of the five i have installed. mplayer plays most anything, but vlc has not been working like it works on windows since i installed it | 11:54 |
| Dr_Willis | ive founbd very few video files i cant play with vlc here. | 11:54 |
| nalcomis | Dr_Willis: I love you? Your advice worked :) (kidding about the I love you thing, but I do appreciate it!) | 11:55 |
| Dr_Willis | the vlc in 9.04 is a little old however.. theres PPA's of th newer vlc versions | 11:55 |
| FiReSTaRT | psinetic: i find that VERY strange when it comes to video content, but then again, i mostly play mp3 music and avi/dvd video, so i haven't tried much exotic stuff | 11:55 |
| psinetic | looks like your ubuntu install is different than my ubuntu install. everytime i install ubuntu i get a different problem with the core OS. | 11:55 |
| oobe | Makavel, you will need to seek special instructions i dont know if its at all possible you will have to be more carefull in future with programs that are specifically designed to format disks | 11:55 |
| damjan_ | Ok | 11:56 |
| FiReSTaRT | Dr_Willis: i am using the jaunty vlc without any issues | 11:56 |
| damjan_ | ok | 11:56 |
| Makavel | oobe: Thanks... let me google a little bit if i can find anything | 11:56 |
| Dr_Willis | FiReSTaRT: yep. it worked good for me also.. buyt the newer vlc's have some newer features ive noticed | 11:56 |
| oobe | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=496126 | 11:56 |
| psinetic | damjan_, wtf are you saying "ok" for? i don't see anyone talking to you XD | 11:56 |
| Dr_Willis | ive found very few videos i couldent play with vlc or mplayer. | 11:57 |
| bazhang | !language > psinetic | 11:57 |
| ubottu | psinetic, please see my private message | 11:57 |
| FiReSTaRT | Dr_Willis: the standard one has all the features that i need... move the window over to the big screen, double click, kick back and relax :P | 11:57 |
| FiReSTaRT | ok time for me to meet up with a vendor.. have a good one guys :) | 11:57 |
| skiwithpete | ok, problem is much wider than originally thought | 11:57 |
| damjan_ | Smdy , managed to change mac address with network manager | 11:57 |

| wirechief | WiresAP the extended is the free space from resizing the sda2, it is made into a extended, then you can make logicals from it. | 13:18 |
| nic1 | iceroot: i ran medibuntu commands previously..sudo aptget install skype works fine..after that when i run skype i have an error | 13:18 |
| Sagaci | gamerx: make it executable and run it | 13:18 |
| gcorvala | grawity, the problem is that actualy I use dhpc3 and tftp-hpa and it works with anything, but with a mac, I seems not, do you know if it can be done with dhcp3+tftp ? | 13:18 |
| jrib | ibou: I'm referring to "The selected video_out device is incompatible with this codec." by the way | 13:19 |
| gamerx | Sagaci, aha, okay its chmod 777 file? | 13:19 |
| gcorvala | maybe pxe boot is not exactly the same than bootp ? | 13:19 |
| grawity | gcorvala: Wait. Doesn't DHCP include BOOTP anyway? | 13:19 |
| gamerx | Sagaci, sorry thats not right | 13:19 |
| gamerx | Sagaci, i forget, sorry | 13:19 |
| Sasuke\ | WiresAP: lol, in just installing ubuntu? lol | 13:19 |
| Sagaci | sudo chmod 700 file && ./file | 13:20 |
| WiresAP | wirechief: I already have it formatted in extended, and see no options for logicals anywhere - not in edit partition section, nor anywhere else | 13:20 |
| nic1 | current skype status: http://paste.ubuntu.com/300508/ | 13:20 |
| gcorvala | grawity, I guess, but I don't know how to make it work with my macbook | 13:20 |
| jrib | !wifi > gamerx | 13:20 |
| ubottu | gamerx, please see my private message | 13:20 |
| WiresAP | wirechief: is it safe to sinply hit forward? | 13:20 |
| Sasuke\ | any guidelines on installing a ubuntu? | 13:20 |
| gamerx | jrib, i got it, my mates a linux "guru", and he gave me the link to that site... | 13:20 |
| WiresAP | Sasuke: it may sound funny, but I'm pulling my hair out | 13:21 |
| Sagaci | gamerx: did it work | 13:21 |
| nic1 | iceroot: skype error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/300508/ | 13:21 |
| jrib | gamerx: that's fine, but .bin's are to be avoided whenever possible... | 13:21 |
| gamerx | Sagaci, jrib, okay thanks | 13:21 |
| WiresAP | took me a day just to bloody get to the installer, because of problems with wubi | 13:21 |
| Sasuke\ | any guidelines on installing a ubuntu? | 13:21 |
| wirechief | WiresAP the extended free space from resizing the sda2 for me was about 25gb, i then made a couple 22 logicals and one swap from the extended. | 13:21 |
| gamerx | jrib, yes, but its draft-n and he couldnt work a way around it | 13:21 |
| WiresAP | wirechief: I have 60 gb fro, the resizing of sda2 | 13:21 |
| Sagaci | Sasuke\: don't install it to start off with, use the live cd to see if you like it | 13:22 |
| n8tuser | WiresAP-> lets step back a lil bit, you have 4 partitions already and they are all primary? | 13:22 |
| nic1 | iceroot: can you pls help me out?? skype errror: http://paste.ubuntu.com/300508/ | 13:22 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser: yes, there appear to be 4 | 13:22 |
| wirechief | WiresAP you probably should google for a howto gparted there are all kinds of em out there and can give you different ideas on how to proceed. | 13:22 |
| dariocaruso | Hi! Can i boot an ubuntu server distro, on a pc without video card?? | 13:22 |
| Sagaci | dariocaruso: try it, I don't see why not | 13:23 |
| icehawk78 | dariocaruso: Try a live CD, but I'm pretty sure you can | 13:23 |
| WiresAP | wirechief: the idea of having to get another usb to load another program to be able to install ubuntu is depressing | 13:23 |
| n8tuser | WiresAP-> is one at least an extended partition or not? if not you are stucked. | 13:23 |
| gamerx | Sagaci, it tells me bash: ./rt2860.bin: cannot execute binary file | 13:23 |
| dariocaruso | the bios allow it? | 13:23 |
| icehawk78 | dariocaruso: Bios is hardware specific, not OS. | 13:24 |
| Sasuke\ | Sagaci: live cd? what you mnean? | 13:24 |
| n8tuser | dariocaruso-> why not? but how would you see the results of the boot process if you need to interact? | 13:24 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser: as far as I could tell, /dev/sda2 was unusued, so I selected it, hit edit partition, changed the "use as" option to ext3 journaling system, checked format partition, and gave / as mount point | 13:24 |
| Sagaci | Sasuke\: what version of ubuntu do you want to install | 13:24 |
| Sasuke\ | Sagaci: the latest one | 13:25 |
| n8tuser | WiresAP-> you have to first tell me, is one of the partitions an extended partition or not? | 13:25 |
| ibou | jrib: thx a lot. Ill try differents output | 13:25 |
| iceroot | nic1: removed the skype from skype.com fisrt? | 13:25 |
| Sagaci | Sasuke\: 9.04 that is. Are you looking to install the desktop, server or netbook edition | 13:25 |
| Sasuke\ | which is more heavier? the windows or the ubuntu? | 13:25 |
| Sasuke\ | Sagaci for my personal computer | 13:25 |
| jrib | Sasuke\: I imagine they weigh next to nothing... | 13:25 |
| Sasuke\ | im gonna use it for desktop and a server | 13:25 |
| ManDay | Can anyone tell me why when I connect an external monitor to my laptop I cannot use its full resolution? | 13:25 |
| wirechief | WiresAP: well i guess i did make it easier by using a external usb dvd player and a cd with gparted live. i dont think ubuntu comes with gparted, you would of had to install it. | 13:26 |
| Sagaci | Sasuke\: well you need the desktop edition then, have you got an ubuntu cd there | 13:26 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser: errr, if my answer didn't clear that up, I probably don't understand the question - how might I tell if one of the partitions is an extended partition? | 13:26 |
| gcorvala | is it a difference between the boot over network in mac and pc's ? | 13:26 |
| WiresAP | wirechief: I am poor - I cannot afford an external dvd player | 13:27 |
| icehawk78 | Is there a certain point at which a more powerful processor and/or graphics card won't make a noticable performance difference when Ubuntu primarily as a personal server? (Running Apache, MySQL, RoR, PHP, SSH as well as XBMC on a TV) | 13:27 |
| gcorvala | maybe another kernel image ? ( other than the pxelinux.0 ) | 13:27 |
| n8tuser | WiresAP-> are you booted of livecd now? at what stage are you on? i can advise you of what to do once i know where you are at | 13:27 |
| Sasuke\ | Sagaci: i have it in my friend. im gonna get it later. | 13:27 |
| Sasuke\ | Sagaci: how do i know that my friend downloaded the dekstop edition? | 13:27 |
| wirechief | WiresAP: well i guess the best thing is get more knowledge, you can try google , you should be able to find some excellent howto's | 13:28 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser: I'm running an eeepc asus 1005HA, so I am running the UNR installer from a usb key, as per instructions found on the web | 13:28 |
| === mohi1_ is now known as mohi1 | ||
| wirechief | WiresAP: n8tuser is willing to take you further into this, good luck.... | 13:28 |
| Sasuke\ | ? | 13:29 |
| n8tuser | WiresAP-> am not familiar with what a UNR is, did you boot off of that? ie booted off of the usb? | 13:29 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser: I was asked the configure the timezone and keyboard, and then asked which hard drive to choose - as I don't want to loose the windows partition I currently have, I clicked the advanced option, and have been trying to figure out what to do from there | 13:29 |
| savage- | new release comes out on the 28th still? | 13:29 |
| Sagaci | Sasuke\: try and boot from it, if you get an outdated no Graphical User Interface, then you've got the server or alternate CD. I recommend you get the Ubuntu Jaunty Desktop edition | 13:29 |
| Sagaci | 29th | 13:29 |
| Sasuke\ | can the webcam can run even though it is not supported by linux? | 13:29 |
| Sagaci | Sasuke\: depends on the model | 13:29 |
| WiresAP | wirechief: thanks for the help (the reason I came here is because some of the how tos didn't explain certain steps, and I am currently stuck on the logical part) | 13:30 |
| Sasuke\ | like a a4tech, | 13:30 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser: UNR - Ubuntu netbook Remix | 13:30 |
| nic1 | iceroot: icerootnic1: removed the skype from skype.com fisrt? removing?? | 13:30 |
| iceroot | nic1: yes | 13:30 |
| n8tuser | WiresAP-> answer the rest of my questions | 13:30 |
| mac | Is it good menuet | 13:30 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser: I am booted off a usb with the UNR usb image provided by the ubuntu img | 13:31 |
| Sagaci | Sasuke\: you have to realise that many manufacturers do not release source code or drivers for their hardware so it makes it hard for Ubuntu to support it | 13:31 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser: sorry; slow typer | 13:31 |

| Sasuke\ | ohhh fuck me | 13:35 |
| Pax-Man | wirechief, I can't use imagewriter then? Okay. I'll try thank you for your help. And if that's the case you're right then http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/ should be changed. | 13:35 |
| iceroot | Sasuke\: alternate is a text-installer, with some more options + raid-support but the result will be the sae, normal ubuntu | 13:35 |
| Dr_Willis | rasstar: yep but the variants on it just keep comming.. next will be 'moblin' | 13:35 |
| n8tuser | WiresAP-> i dont konw, it depends i guess on your chat client | 13:35 |
| iceroot | Sasuke\: and whatch your language | 13:35 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser bugger that's a lot of info | 13:35 |
| wirechief | Pax-Man i agree, it sux, i fought the issue myself.... | 13:35 |
| rasstar | eeebuntu is the best imo but it needs updating | 13:35 |
| iceroot | nic1: installed qt by hand? | 13:35 |
| nic1 | iceroot: no | 13:36 |
| Sagaci | Sasuke\: if you've got a spare few dollars, you could buy a linux magazine from your local newsagent, look for a mag that has Ubuntu 9.04 on the front | 13:36 |
| n8tuser | WiresAP-> um, if you wanted help, you have to do dirty stuff, copying things so i can assist you.. | 13:36 |
| iceroot | nic1: hm | 13:36 |
| gamerx | how can i install a bin, file Sagaci your way is giving me an error | 13:36 |
| nic1 | iceroot: or i might have in the past | 13:36 |
| iceroot | nic1: so you have? | 13:36 |
| WiresAP | n8tuser oh I know, I was just surprised | 13:36 |
| natschil | rasstar: you can change the UI though | 13:36 |
| nic1 | iceroot: there were two inst, installtions of qt on my sys i removed one | 13:36 |
| nic1 | iceroot: yes i think i have | 13:36 |
| iceroot | nic1: removed??!! | 13:37 |
| Sagaci | Sasuke\: and if you have the time, you could wait a week until the new ubuntu 9.10 is released | 13:37 |
| iceroot | nic1: removed with what? | 13:37 |
| nic1 | iceroot: yes rm -r libqtdbus.so | 13:37 |

| the_dark_warrio | I have updated my Jaunty and at some point it said my /boot/grub/menu.lst was altered (I did change the order of some items). But I said to install the package menu.lst and now there is no windows item to select. How do I put that back? | 13:39 |

| gamerx | jrib 1386 | 13:39 |
| Psinetic | hey, op, question? someone commented on my "language" earlier when i used a phrase like "wtf" or "stfu" etc. etc. They pointed me to the guidelines and code of conduct because i requested to know how that is bad language. i don't see anything in there referring to language. Any assistance please? i really don't want to be offensive to anyone just because i use acronyms | 13:39 |
| iceroot | nic1: get that file from somewhere and restore it | 13:39 |
| gamerx | i38 | 13:39 |
| jrib | gamerx: "that site"? what wireless card? | 13:39 |
| iceroot | nic1: or reinstall qt | 13:39 |
| gamerx | jrib | 13:39 |
| jrib | gcorvala: "that site"? what wireless card? | 13:39 |
| jrib | ugh I fail... | 13:39 |
| gamerx | jrib: http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2, second form the botom | 13:39 |
| jrib | gcorvala: then either i386 or amd64 (if you want 64bit support8 | 13:39 |
| nic1 | iceroot: what is the command to reinstall qt? | 13:39 |
| n8tuser | Psinetic-> simple solution, just dont use those | 13:39 |
| gcorvala | ok thx jrib | 13:39 |
| iceroot | nic1: install apt-file then search for the deleted file. apt-file will tell you the package-name, reinstall that package with apt-get install | 13:39 |
| iceroot | nic1: maybe someone here has apt-file and can search for you | 13:40 |
| nic1 | iceroot: i remember what i did exactly..there were two instances of libqtdbus.so, so i removed one | 13:40 |
| mailev | Can you help me with 9.10 rc please - how do I freeze the gdm settings so I can connect via a kvm and not loose resolution when I reboot | 13:40 |
| iceroot | nic1: and why? | 13:40 |
| gamerx | jrib, Sagaci any help here? | 13:40 |
| iceroot | mailev: #ubuntu+1 | 13:40 |
| nic1 | iceroot: why means// why there were two? | 13:41 |
| Psinetic | n8tuser, simple solution: just answer my question. | 13:41 |
| nic1 | iceroot: that even i do not know.. | 13:41 |
| iceroot | nic1: why removing system-files | 13:41 |
| nic1 | iceroot: because there were two | 13:41 |
| jrib | Psinetic: those acronyms are not allowed. Does that answer your question? If not, please take it to #ubuntu-ops | 13:41 |
| wirechief | Pax-Man this was my attempt: https://bugs.launchpad.net/netbook-remix-launcher/+bug/445817 | 13:42 |

| athlan | Sagaci: why does ekiga depend on the whole environent? | 13:45 |
| alexmrtrip | HEllo Sagaci :))) | 13:45 |
| athlan | Sagaci: i have skype installed | 13:45 |
| gamerx | #su allways gives me authentication error, is there a default password? | 13:46 |
| athlan | Sagaci: i never use this programme, so why keep it? | 13:46 |
| guntbert | !su | gamerx | 13:46 |
| ubottu | gamerx: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 13:46 |

| Sagaci | gamerx: have you set a root password | 13:47 |
| alexmrtrip | I Love BT4 :::):) | 13:47 |

| athlan | is it possible to remove ekiga and epiphany without removing the gnome package? | 13:48 |
| guntbert | gamerx: use sudo -s (if you *really* must have a root login now and then) | 13:48 |
| Sagaci | gamerx: it could be a range of things provoking the problem | 13:48 |
| gamerx | Sagaci, where could i start? | 13:49 |

| ValentineX | ubuntu off topic? | 13:49 |
| athlan | is it possible to remove ekiga and epiphany without removing the gnome package? | 13:49 |
| athlan | just want to know if it is possible | 13:50 |
| nic1 | iceroot: can you please tell lil clear how to restore that files? | 13:50 |
| athlan | may anyone help me out? | 13:51 |
| n8tuser | athlan i believed it is possible, i dont think gnome is dependent on those two apps | 13:51 |
| kosmic | there is an `install-sh` script inside md5deep. im wondering if its safe to run | 13:51 |
| n8tuser | kosmic-> why not try to open that script and see for yourself if it bothers you? | 13:51 |
| athlan | n8tuser: it is definitely dependent. at least, aptitude says so | 13:52 |
| bazhang | athlan, you mean ubuntu-desktop package? | 13:52 |
| kosmic | n8tuser, well im not savvy enough ;) | 13:52 |
| athlan | bazhag: no, the "gnome" package | 13:52 |
| kosmic | n8tuser, i figure that if someone is trying to do something nasty in an install script they will make it look as obscure as possible | 13:52 |
| bazhang | athlan, what is the exact name please | 13:52 |
| kosmic | in other words; only an expert can tell what's hidden inside if anything is at all | 13:53 |
| athlan | bazhag: "gnome is the exact name | 13:53 |
| n8tuser | kosmic-> well, look around that script file and see if anything thats not satisfying to you.... btw thats a risk one take if not familiar with the app | 13:53 |
| athlan | bazhag: "gnome is the exact name | 13:53 |
| gcorvala | I don't understand why the macbook pro doesn't start over network | 13:53 |
| bazhang | seems to be a metapackage | 13:53 |
| gcorvala | if someone has already do it ... :p | 13:53 |
| kosmic | n8tuser, hah. so it's a risk one takes every time one installs a package? ;) | 13:53 |

| Dr_Willis | pronoy: not really. from what i recall reading the Person in charge of 'tor packages' for ubuntu had other things to do and theres no longer a maintainer. thus its gone. | 14:37 |
| pronoy | Dr_Willis lulz | 14:38 |

| shyam_k | Dr_Willis: is ubuntu's installation time partition editor reliable enough to resize a single c: partition(ntfs) available on the system? or is it better to do in windows itself using say partition magic or so? as ##windows people say? | 14:40 |
| lao5 | napster: eclipse is a little slow | 14:40 |
| athlan | @ all I have 2 bluetooth entrys in my control center. of of them is called "bluetooth control". Description: "Pannel based bluetooth control". What does it do? Do i really need 2 bluetooth entries? | 14:40 |
| Dr_Willis | shyam_k: it can. but i found the ntfs tool son windows to work about 6x+ faster | 14:40 |
| napster | yep. But it has that much plugins... | 14:40 |
| skx | shyam_k, do a backup and go for it, I used gparted and windows survived | 14:41 |
| Dr_Willis | shyam_k: the normal windows has some resize tool in its toolbox somewhere. no need to get partition magic. | 14:41 |
| shyam_k | Dr_Willis: my problem is reliability i have a night to install and i am more comfortable with an ubuntu solution because i have never used windows myself. | 14:41 |
| Dr_Willis | shyam_k: backups are always good. :) | 14:41 |

| lao5 | napster: in fact , i m not familiar with both. :) | 14:42 |
| Dr_Willis | shyam_k: use a gparted live cd then i guess.. or try the windows tools. I dont recall where they are at (under disk mangement somewhere) but i resuzed a windows 200gb partition in half.. and windows took like 10 min.. linux took hr+ | 14:42 |
| shyam_k | well my worry is that there is only this one single parition on the system so to what extend can i do backup? all the programs and setups aren't "backupable" right? | 14:42 |
| napster | lao5: k | 14:42 |
| skx | scunizi, found it! it's called partman :) | 14:42 |

| snuffy47 | can somI can not mount my samba share on either ubuntu desktop or a windows xp machine | 14:42 |

| Dr_Willis | shyam_k: you said it also had a 'rescue/restore' partition. thats what you boot to restore windows to its inital state. so theres proberly some tools/way to get a dvd/cd restore disk set burnt also. | 14:43 |
| Kingsy101 | can someone help with my probleem? | 14:43 |

| calm | i'm trying to force a 120hz refresh rate for my monitor when i launch a game in 640x480.. anyone know how do this? | 15:14 |
| BareGrillz | scunizi, basically what i mean is... if i leave the HP factory image on D: parition untouched will it still be available via F10 if needed if i replace the C: partition of vista with ubuntu no dual booting | 15:14 |
| [V]ortex` | bazhang: yes, it's there. How do i replace firefox ap with shiretoko? | 15:14 |
| trayzz | paultag_h1n1 so..you think changing ownership would do the job? | 15:14 |
| paultag_h1n1 | trayzz, no, actually, but it's worth a shot | 15:15 |
| bazhang | [V]ortex`, you mean the icon from the panel or on your desktop? right click drag from menu | 15:15 |
| peol | Does anyone know why my F1-F12 keys might've stopped working? They're registered in 'xev' but doesn't work in desktop, apps or games. (E.g. alt+f4 does nothing) | 15:15 |
| trayzz | paultag_h1n1 ..but it won't do harm? | 15:15 |
| peol | Compiz on or off doesn't matter | 15:15 |
| scunizi | BareGrillz: should be.. because the F10 function should be a bios call.. just a way of switching boot to the "image" drive.. | 15:15 |
| paultag_h1n1 | trayzz, it won't do a thing | 15:15 |
| skato4554 | hola, yours speak spanish? | 15:15 |
| paultag_h1n1 | trayzz, negative, that is :) | 15:15 |
| BareGrillz | scunizi ok thanks :] | 15:15 |
| trayzz | paultag_h1n1 alright, i'll give it a shot | 15:16 |
| [V]ortex` | bazhang: on the top of the desktop tray thing | 15:16 |
| paultag_h1n1 | trayzz, cool | 15:16 |
| [V]ortex` | i don't know what to call it | 15:16 |
| bazhang | [V]ortex`, you dont replace it per se, it stays side by side with ff3 | 15:16 |
| scunizi | BareGrillz: also .. vista should be asking you to create install/rescue cd's from that image..if not there is typically an option to do that.. | 15:16 |
| cristi1 | hey! does anyone know how to connect to a wireless network using the terminal? The network has a WPA key protection | 15:16 |
| bazhang | [V]ortex`, top panel, right click delete | 15:16 |
| [V]ortex` | bazhang: oh, ok is there any reason why? can't i get rid of it? | 15:16 |
| [V]ortex` | bazhang: but i want the familiar icon | 15:16 |

| scunizi | BareGrillz: some suppliers also provide rescue cd's that work the same as the image partition... Oh.. | 15:17 |
| trayzz | paultag_h1n1 it worked | 15:17 |

| n8tuser | xyz-> were you able to even run ubuntu after that install? | 15:19 |

| Twinkletoes | n8tuser: I'm sorry, I didn't understand your reply about /usr/fs | 15:22 |

| eurythmia | ZykoticK9, well, the parent process of the process (mv, in this case) is bash, er, was bash ... I've already terminated that process, and mv is still hanging around. | 15:40 |

| Halitech | [V]ortex`, nope, don't do that | 15:41 |
| gcrazy | linxeh, But that's the only difference right? | 15:41 |
| phix | Halitech: you can, but why would you want to change the firefox icon for? it looks fine to me | 15:41 |
| linxeh | gcrazy: also it installs from packages, rather than copying a live install to the hdd. you can do a full install from both | 15:41 |
| [V]ortex` | Halitech: roger | 15:41 |
| phix | IdleOne: no no no I know | 15:42 |
| [V]ortex` | but then how | 15:42 |
| Halitech | phix, I don't know but everyone has their preferences | 15:42 |
| phix | IdleOne: I am just taking my time answering the question | 15:42 |

| phix | Halitech: true | 15:42 |
| kelli | phix used this and got is alhpabetical ls /media/cdrom/ | lp | 15:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | eurythmia, did you try "killall -9 mv"? will kill any other "mv"s if you have any others | 15:42 |
| phix | ZykoticK9: hopefully init isn't the parent process :) | 15:43 |
| gcrazy | scunizi, Yes I think i'm going with the alternate installer, I'm pretty familiar with text-based install interfaces. And if it's debian's, more so. | 15:43 |
| [V]ortex` | Halitech: can you teach me how to modify the panel, such that empty spaces aren't between icons? | 15:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | phix, everything have init as a parent ;) | 15:43 |
| Halitech | [V]ortex`, not sure why you would have a space, maybe check the properties on the task bar and see under preferences if there is anything | 15:43 |
| phix | ZykoticK9: not directly | 15:43 |
| jrib | [V]ortex`: just middle click drag to rearrange the placement of your icons | 15:43 |
| phix | ZykoticK9: of course the root of all processes is init :) but that is an ancestor, not a parent | 15:43 |
| [V]ortex` | Halitech: there are no preferences panel | 15:43 |
| [V]ortex` | jrib: what is middle click? | 15:44 |
| [V]ortex` | jrib: ok, got it | 15:44 |
| phix | middle click is paste | 15:44 |
| MenDan | phix: thanks,and what can i do? The main problem is I can not open the Recycle Bin, and can not mount the volume | 15:44 |
| [V]ortex` | jrib, Halitech: thanks | 15:44 |
| phix | MenDan: hmmmm | 15:44 |
| phix | MenDan: can you access it in terminal? | 15:44 |
| linxeh | gcrazy: I always use the alternate installer, or the internet based install | 15:44 |
| [V]ortex` | how do i resize my desktop? the native resolution is too small | 15:44 |
| xyz | phix; so can you help me with commands as i have no idea | 15:45 |

| [V]ortex` | Halitech: do i directly cut and paste that command? | 15:46 |
| Halitech | [V]ortex`, use your mouse to hightlight it, CTRL + C to copy it, CTRL + SHIFT + V to paste it to the terminal | 15:47 |
| phix | airforceguy: yes, barbed wire up your ass is equivilant to limewire or any other P2P software | 15:47 |

| Halitech | [V]ortex`, ok, 9.04 and intel cards are flaky, let me see what I can find | 15:49 |

| [V]ortex` | Halitech: ok thankew | 15:49 |
| phix | nn | 15:49 |
| Halitech | [V]ortex`, to check the resolution there should be a menu under System - Preferences - display (I think) to tell you the resolution you are running right now | 15:49 |
| [V]ortex` | Halitech: yes, should i change it? | 15:50 |
| MenDan | phix: yes i can use terminal,I use the terminal to mount the volume, the volume constant restart, I can not stop it,i must restart system | 15:50 |
| [V]ortex` | Halitech: i previously changed the default font size to 16 as a workaround | 15:50 |
| Halitech | [V]ortex`, what is it saying now? | 15:50 |

| richard_ | question: How do I set nvidia resolution so that it doesn't default to auto. I've changed it in the nvidia software but when computer reboots it drops back to auto? I'm running 9.10 RC with latest updates? I ramember it may have been something like 'set nvidia-setting'? in Konsole but that doesn't work. | 15:51 |

| Polterge|st | heh I see ... you don't say ... | 15:58 |

| linxeh | tesseract: I'm not sure I understand what you mean ? | 16:00 |
| === jeremy is now known as Guest31409 | ||
| Halitech | [V]ortex`, ok, might have to just play around with them and see what looks good, when you change the resolution it should give you a confirmation box, if you don't like it, just wait about 15 seconds and it will revert to the original setting | 16:00 |
| ubuntu_ | what is frostwire?? | 16:00 |
| bazhang | ubuntu_, that is offtopic here try the reactos support forum | 16:00 |
| Polterge|st | ubuntu_, frostwire is a limewire type client | 16:01 |
| Polterge|st | I use it, it is good | 16:01 |
| ubuntu_ | from where can i get it? | 16:01 |
| airforceguy | polterge can u help them? | 16:01 |
| tesseract | linxeh, i want to remotely start gnome-terminal | 16:01 |
| linxeh | tesseract: you might need to ssh into the remote box, run xterm/gnome-terminal and have that ssh back into your local machine and open the shared screen session | 16:01 |
| tesseract | "gnome-terminal -e screen --display=localhost:0" | 16:01 |
| Polterge|st | airforceguy, what do they need help with ?> | 16:01 |
| tesseract | ^^ like so. | 16:01 |
| desnaike | airforceguy did u try with synaptic | 16:01 |
| Polterge|st | frostwire is not difficult to install really | 16:02 |
| Polterge|st | you need all of the dependencies | 16:02 |
| tesseract | linxeh, i will try that. | 16:02 |
| airforceguy | desnike: no i will try now good idea | 16:02 |
| Polterge|st | try this "apt-cache search frostwire" | 16:02 |
| === cp is now known as Guest49935 | ||
| ubuntu_ | anyone can give me the link to download frostwire?? | 16:02 |
| bazhang | !info frostwire | 16:02 |
| ubottu | Package frostwire does not exist in jaunty | 16:02 |
| linxeh | tesseract: you could alternatively get ssh set up to forward X from your local box to their remote machine and display a gnome-terminal / xterm that runs on your machine on theirs | 16:02 |
| Polterge|st | and if it is in the repos then just do "sudo apt-get install frostwire" | 16:02 |
| airforceguy | desnaike: i searched it but it can not find it .... | 16:02 |
| bazhang | Polterge|st, its not | 16:02 |
| linxeh | tesseract: I'd go with the former rather than X forwarding though - less bandwidth is required | 16:02 |
| Polterge|st | ubuntu_, you can get it from getdeb.net | 16:02 |
| Polterge|st | it is on that site also | 16:03 |
| Polterge|st | you can download the deb package | 16:03 |
| tesseract | linxeh: You have the command for that? | 16:03 |
| tesseract | ssh -x? | 16:03 |
| [V]ortex` | Halitech: ok thanks, i think i'll just leave the settings as it is | 16:03 |
| Polterge|st | your other alternative is to just download the src and compile it if that is available although I recommend to get the deb package | 16:03 |
| Polterge|st | easier to install or remove | 16:03 |
| flower | why does /etc/apt/preferences not work in Ubuntu (jaunty), at least this example doesn't work: | 16:03 |
| flower | http://pastebin.com/me179d8a | 16:03 |
| Halitech | [V]ortex`, you can always just change the font and icon sizes to suit you | 16:03 |
| [V]ortex` | Halitech: but now i have a DELL22" window on my top left that i can't get rid of | 16:03 |
| flower | in debian it works | 16:03 |
| linxeh | tesseract: ssh -C -Y (-C = compress, -Y is use trusted X forwarding - its usually faster) | 16:03 |
| Polterge|st | the only advantage you get from compiling really is optimized code if you set the flags for the compiler | 16:03 |
| ubuntu_ | ok polterge, but i want a web link to directly download it | 16:04 |
| Polterge|st | ok ubuntu_ gimme a moment I will get that for you | 16:04 |
| bazhang | flower, you mean sources.list ? | 16:04 |
| preecher | bazhang, i feel like one big idiot--was forgetting to x outta gdm | 16:04 |
| Halitech | [V]ortex`, what do you mean a dell22" window? | 16:04 |
| flower | bazhang: no | 16:04 |
| bazhang | preecher, its working now | 16:04 |
| Polterge|st | http://www.getdeb.net/download/4669/0 | 16:04 |
| [V]ortex` | Halitech: a pink window with the words DELL 22" hovering at the top left of the screen | 16:04 |
| preecher | like a dream | 16:04 |
| bazhang | preecher, nice | 16:05 |

| preecher | bazhang, | 16:05 |
| desnaike | airforceguy getdeb.masio.com repo has to be enabled | 16:05 |

| bazhang | preecher, your welcome :) | 16:05 |
| Polterge|st | I use frostwire in sidux even ... if it will work here I know it should work on most if not any ubuntu box because it is an ubuntu deb package | 16:05 |
| ubuntu_ | thank u cwry much polterage,,,can u tell me how can i use it | 16:05 |
| Polterge|st | I never had any issues with it | 16:05 |
| [V]ortex` | Halitech: it came into place after i changed the resolution settings, but it doesn't disappear now :( | 16:05 |
| === oMG is now known as Guest28038 | ||
| Polterge|st | ubuntu_, try this ... download the package and right click on it and use the package manager to install it | 16:06 |
| Polterge|st | or double click it rather | 16:06 |
| tesseract | linxeh, it keeps revering to the --help function.. | 16:06 |
| linxeh | tesseract: maybe you have an old ssh, try -X instead of -Y then | 16:06 |
| tesseract | whenever i try and start gnome-terminal | 16:06 |
| ubuntu_ | acually for what purpose we can use the frostwire..... | 16:06 |
| Polterge|st | if that doesn't work you might try going into the terminal and try to go to the folder where that package is at and do "sudo dpkg --install <frostwirepackagename> " | 16:07 |
| linxeh | oh | 16:07 |
| tesseract | Same.. | 16:07 |
| Polterge|st | ubuntu_, it is like limewire | 16:07 |
| Polterge|st | gtk-gnutella works well also | 16:07 |
| bazhang | ubuntu_, why would you need to install if you dont know what it does | 16:07 |
| Polterge|st | and you can also get limewire as well | 16:07 |
| Polterge|st | frostwire is more of an alternative to limewire though | 16:07 |
| MarkGil | Hi, and gurus understand the postfix master.cf? I had it all working, filtering with spamassassin, but I also now want to add clamsmtp tot he proces to. I had a crack at it, but it seems to be not delivering mail. The top part of my master.cf is here: http://pastebin.com/m268afd25 have I done something silly? | 16:07 |
| ubuntu_ | i want to try this if it can useful to download anything fastly | 16:07 |
| Polterge|st | it isn't bad really | 16:08 |
| Polterge|st | it works well for file downloads if you want a decent p2p client | 16:08 |
| Polterge|st | it has a bluish color to it | 16:08 |
| ubuntu_ | so downloading is in progress..i will try it... | 16:08 |
| Polterge|st | if you are more focused on old fashioned limewire you can use that also | 16:08 |
| Polterge|st | or as an alternative | 16:08 |
| Polterge|st | either one will work | 16:09 |
| Polterge|st | I think the readme tells the differences | 16:09 |

| randomusr | hello | 16:14 |
| desnaike | they work with offshore based distro's mandiva,ubuntu,opensuse,lmint out of box | 16:14 |

| kellyh | randomusr: depends what window manager you use | 16:17 |
| peterkirn | desnaike: ah, okay. Well, I guess there's some concern about trying to ship too much... | 16:18 |
| kellyh | iirc Gnome can't, but you can kludge it a bit, KDE might be able to, so might XFCE | 16:18 |
| rimvis | does anybody has idea how to run normaly ati radeon r4350-md1gh | 16:18 |
| janisozaur | nightange1: run it in terminal | 16:18 |

| guntbert | airforceguy: right click on the panel, add to panel / create an app launcher (from menu) - foward, select the app you want | 16:54 |
| arquebus | rasstar- ubuntu uses gnome and kubuntu uses KDE, you have to try them both to see which you like, its like saying which is better windows or mac | 16:54 |

| [V]ortex` | billy: i was under the impression it doesn't run/isn't stable in linux? | 17:05 |
| aperson | kaka, just ask your question | 17:05 |
| kaka | My LG E300 laptop built-in keyboard is not recognized by no linux distro | 17:05 |
| kaka | How can it happen and how can I solve it? | 17:05 |
| Pyrometheus | pulseaudio sucks, it ruins both my audio (it skips) and my skype | 17:05 |
| billy | [V]ortex: I've been using for a long time. Actually, it has daily updates, and works great if you use the PPA. | 17:05 |
| bfdhud | from what I can tell watching my system boot, avahi-daemon starts prior to afpd (netatalk) so my linux box doesn't broadcast it's shares. | 17:05 |
| billy | Chromium, that is | 17:05 |
| kaka | It has 84 key ps/2 keyboard as the built-in keyboard | 17:05 |

| [V]ortex` | Jimmio: i'm new, so what does alpha here imply? does it crash often? | 17:10 |
| Jimmio | [V]ortex`: You have to pass an argument to activate libraries if I'm not mistaken as they're alpha. You might have to move the flash plugin library to a folder.. but other than that it's great. | 17:10 |

| evilaim | Heres a question for you all... I have data on an drive formatted to ext4, but it's only 75% full. I want to make this drive ext3. Should I format that to ext3, move as much data over as I can from the ext4 -> ext3 then then expand the ext3 as large as I can and keep doing it till the drive is fully ext3? | 17:20 |
| lukus | if i use chroot | 17:20 |
| evilaim | is this safe? | 17:20 |
| maco | lunks: oh. hey you just confirmed a bug for me! also...you shouldv been in #ubuntu+1 | 17:20 |
| lukus | would that let me log on to the system on the hard drive? | 17:20 |
| billy | lukus: Yeah | 17:20 |
| raven | what is the kernel-image-file of an ubuntu-image? | 17:20 |
| billy | lukus: You could get all your files. | 17:20 |
| lukus | billy; so I could uninstall the driver that way? | 17:20 |
| billy | lukus: I'm not sure to be honest. | 17:21 |
| micah | i need wolfenstein help | 17:21 |
| bfdhud | evilaim - no that is asking for trouble | 17:21 |
| aperson | lukus: you should still be able to ctrl+alt+f2 to drop into a tty | 17:21 |
| evilaim | hmmm | 17:21 |
| evilaim | then what's the way of doing this | 17:21 |
| lukus | aperson; i'll try that | 17:21 |
| bfdhud | evilaim - backup to another drive is possible then do a format in one fell swoop | 17:21 |
| evilaim | So, I have to have another 500 gigger just sitting around? | 17:22 |
| evilaim | haha | 17:22 |

| evenicoulddoit | Okay thanks :) - I'm looking to setup an internet connection (I'm currently at University) - The university require that in order to connect to their WPA encrypted server, I manually setup a link (Or I am restricted to HTTP only access). The program asks me to first enter my wireless network interfaces name - I've found it out and entered it. Then it asks me what driver to use for "Wpa_supplicant". How do I find out which one to us | 18:04 |
| iceroot | is a ubuntu-*.deb a normal debian-*.deb with patches? or is the code changed directly? | 18:04 |
| xiambax | anyone here using simplify media with linux? | 18:05 |
| LjL | iceroot: it completely depends on the package. | 18:05 |
| anwar | i am using 32 bits but it seems nasm is converting to 64 bits | 18:05 |
| evenicoulddoit | - MORE - I entered WEXT (as it said it as an example) and a few more, but they're not working. The information to connect is here - http://www.lboro.ac.uk/it/wireless/linux.html - I want to begin to learn more about unbuntu, but having only access to HTTP connections limits my ability to communicate. | 18:05 |
| maco | iceroot: if debian maintainer uses a patch management system, there will be patches in debian/patches from ubuntu. if not, they're usually applied directly to the code | 18:05 |
| LjL | iceroot: it might be the exact same as the corresponding Debian package, or it might be the same but with different dependencies (or rather, dependency versions), or it might have ubuntu-specific patches | 18:05 |
| maco | iceroot: as a general rule. not everyone goes with it... | 18:06 |

| joeyeye | evilaim: you can buy any of the DDR2 ram your mobo supports, or faster ... | 18:37 |
| jbu | Dr_Willis, but how do you upgrade? Is there an upgrade package available in synaptic? | 18:37 |
| evilaim | http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/PID-MX20897%28ME%29.aspx <--- will that work? | 18:37 |
| xyz | Halitech; what do you say if i just retain the partition as said in that post and reinstall ubuntu | 18:37 |
| Dr_Willis | !upgrade | jbu | 18:37 |
| ubottu | jbu: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 18:37 |
| k5ehx | in 9.04 programs could minimize themselves into a sort of "tray" at the top panel. On upgrading to 9.10 this has disappeared. Where should I start for resolving this? | 18:37 |
| Dr_Willis | jbu: thats a feature of the package manager system yes. | 18:37 |
| aj_444 | WiresAP: I can tell you right now from experience that regardless of whether or not you get your panels back, wireless/wired is not going to work. I went through the same thing with the HA... you'll have to install the 9.1 RC. | 18:37 |
| jbu | Dr_Willis, thanks | 18:37 |
| k5ehx | or 9.10 RC, I should say | 18:37 |
| bazhang | k5ehx, #ubuntu+1 for karmic | 18:37 |
| DJones | juninhu: Can you try a different USB port, I've found that some ports aren't quite compatible | 18:37 |
| Halitech | xyz, once you create the partition then yes, you should be able to reinstall using the manual partitioning and mount the partition as /home | 18:37 |
| juninhu | sure, let me try | 18:38 |
| joeyeye | evilaim: yes those corsair chips will work as they are rated for a 800MHz fsb | 18:38 |
| k5ehx | bazhang: thx | 18:38 |
| WiresAP | aj_444: thanks for the heads up | 18:38 |
| juninhu | DJones: can I install the android OS in any Smartphone? | 18:38 |

| evilaim | thanks a lot | 18:38 |
| evilaim | :) | 18:38 |
| aj_444 | WiresAP: I've been running 9.10 since alpha 5? It works quite well on the 1005ha. | 18:38 |
| kitty_ | i am setting up a wireless network and am having difficulties | 18:38 |
| xyz | Halitech; but i think during reinstallation it asks me to format /home ?? | 18:38 |
| DJones | juninhu: I doubt it, mine is the android version | 18:38 |
| Halitech | xyz, just make sure you uncheck where it says to format the partition | 18:39 |
| juninhu | ;( | 18:39 |
| joeyeye | evilaim: but you may find that 4GB in 1GB stick is cheaper - your mobo only supports 4GB, and has 4 banks | 18:39 |
| DJones | juninhu: is yours windows or android? | 18:39 |
| xyz | Halitech; so there wouldn't be any problem?? | 18:39 |
| lascivus | Kitty, what wireless problems are you having? | 18:39 |
| Halitech | xyz, I don't foresee any, I've done it a few times and just unchecked the format option on home and I still have all my files | 18:40 |
| xyz | Halitech; okk cool then | 18:40 |
| xyz | thanks | 18:40 |

| juninhu | looking here, http://www.android.com/ I can see how Android rock! | 18:42 |
| DJones | juninhu: Right, I've got no experience with that, I suppose as a start, I'd open a terminal window, plug the phone in and then run "dmesg | tail" Maybe if you can pastebin the results of that command somebody will be able to see if the phone is being detected at least | 18:42 |
| lascivus | So the wireless card is the private network and the wired(ethernet) is connected to the internet? | 18:42 |

| kitty_ | lascivus i have 2 and its doing the same thing with both of them | 18:49 |
| Joeseph | what's the best way to show all failed login attempts that were made over ssh? | 18:49 |
| juninhu | I guess the smartphone will show as a Pendrive or HD... | 18:49 |
| Halitech | oukoupu, what does the output of sudo fdisk -l show? use pastebin to show us | 18:49 |
| balajohn | Halitech when I run alsamixer only shows up one (1) option which is Master and is not muted | 18:49 |
| juninhu | I cant understando what is needed to do it. =/ | 18:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Joeseph: theres the logwatch program that is designed for that task and other log 'summary' tasks :) | 18:49 |
| oukoupu | I'm on a different computer. | 18:49 |
| kitty_ | lascivus, http://pastebin.com/f86c1007 | 18:49 |
| TalOrmanda | Would any of you know if there are tools I can use to reset or crack a windows vista password? I can't login to my desktop anymore | 18:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Joeseph: i opened port 22 once and got like 10,000 attempts over a week.. :P | 18:49 |
| Halitech | balajohn, ok, sudo apt-get install alsamixergui and see if you can change what sound card is showing | 18:50 |
| Dr_Willis | TalOrmanda: the 'system rescue cd' has exactly such a tool. | 18:50 |
| kitty_ | i used some simple iptables firewall generator thing and it had been working great for almost a year | 18:50 |
| oukoupu | I have 11 sda's. | 18:50 |
| TalOrmanda | Dr_Willis what is this =0 | 18:50 |
| Dr_Willis | TalOrmanda: use it to set the password to blank, and then login and change it to whatever | 18:50 |
| oukoupu | And sda 2 and 3 are my Windows partitions. | 18:50 |
| Dr_Willis | TalOrmanda: its a live linux cd. | 18:50 |
| lascivus | Looking at it now, sec | 18:50 |
| Joeseph | Dr_Willis: So sudo apt-get install logwatch ? is it fairly straightforward? ---- yeah, that's also why I use a non-default port. | 18:50 |
| oukoupu | SDA3 says Extended. | 18:50 |
| oukoupu | I'm not sure what that is. | 18:50 |
| oukoupu | And the rest are linux | 18:50 |

| oukoupu | And I actually did try this. | 18:52 |
| pronoy | oukoupu same | 18:52 |
| balajohn | Halitech what you think I have to do | 18:52 |
| Dr_Willis | oukoupu: if grub menu has no entry for windows.. then you add a grub entry for it. via editing the menu.lst | 18:52 |
| evilaim | I heard you | 18:52 |
| oukoupu | Oh, okay, thank you. | 18:52 |
| oukoupu | Let me try that. | 18:53 |

| ZykoticK9 | kitty_, if you ran "rm -rf ~/.*" i think you just deleted every personal setting for every program you have (probably NOT the best idea) - better to remove the settings of only the program(s) you are having problems with | 19:27 |

| nuccio | ok, grazie | 19:28 |
| linxeh | !sudo | DaveyAM | 19:28 |
| ubottu | DaveyAM: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 19:28 |
| jdahm | I'm installing ubuntu on a mbp, and I get the error "the attempt to mount a file system with type ext2 in SCSI3 (0,0,0), partition #2 (sda) at /boot failed." | 19:29 |

| ramseize | hello are ubuntu and centos servers the same in setting up the cron? | 19:29 |
| linxeh | DaveyAM: you use sudo to run programs as if you were root | 19:29 |
| Halitech | !root | DaveyAM | 19:29 |
| ubottu | DaveyAM: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 19:29 |

| unapiedra | xangua: they work in Kubuntu, etc | 19:34 |
| jdahm | 1inxeh: do you have a workaround? | 19:34 |

| lstarnes | Izinucs: the linux version of 7zip supports it, so the windows version probably does to | 19:53 |
| lstarnes | *too | 19:53 |

| Halitech | DaveyAM, if you have 4gig of ram you will probably want 64bit to use all your ram | 19:54 |
| gcrazy | joeyeye, Take a look at the post I just did a few lines up :) | 19:54 |

| p-f | redrawing windows (when restoring a minimized window or minimizing a window with other windows behind it, for example) takes ages here. Is there a reason why that could be? I disabled all animations and effects in gnome/metacity. | 19:58 |

| usser | Halitech, hm, maybe im missing something, are you on karmic koala x64? | 19:59 |
| Izinucs | p-f: could be the video driver.. what card do you have? | 19:59 |
| lukey | Guest imo ubuntu is easier as it is more polished (past versions of kubuntu were IMO a bit rough around the edges but this may have changed in kubuntu karmic but I have not tried it) | 19:59 |

| Halitech | usser, nope, Debian Testing | 19:59 |

| EagleScreen | I need a good web designer tool for Ubuntu | 20:00 |
| usser | Halitech, kudos, running squeze here :) 32bit though | 20:00 |
| Flare183 | p-f: Then, yeah, usser is right. It has to be your video card then. | 20:00 |
| embrik | blue-frog, Gateway is now 192.168.1.5 which equals the ip for eth1 on the server - still I can't connect. Any other solutions? I find this a bit strange that it should be so difficult. I wonder if I google the wrong keywords, when I try to find help on the net :-( | 20:00 |
| EagleScreen | anything like Frontpage for Ubuntu? | 20:00 |

| Flare183 | !kompozer | EagleScreen | 20:00 |
| ubottu | EagleScreen: kompozer is a WYSIWYG HTML editor for easily creating web pages, and the continuation of the dead Nvu project. It is available in !Universe on !Gutsy and later releases. | 20:00 |
| usser | DaveyAM, phpmyadmin is pretty good | 20:00 |
| usser | Halitech, are you using gnome? | 20:01 |
| Halitech | usser, nope, xfce | 20:01 |
| Izinucs | p-f: ah.. I understand that is a common complaint about intel.. the next release is suppose to fix a lot of that issue. Turn off *all* special effects | 20:01 |
| tonyyarusso | EagleScreen: Note that for Intrepid and Jaunty you'll need the version of kompozer from the backports repository - the one in universe is broken. | 20:01 |
| p-f | Izinucs, I'm pretty sure they're all off now | 20:01 |
| usser | Halitech, oh, yea gnome is buggy/incomplete on squeze, but otherwise debian testing looks awesome | 20:02 |
| p-f | Izinucs, and the next release of what? Ubuntu? | 20:02 |
| p-f | the driver? | 20:02 |
| Izinucs | p-f: yes | 20:02 |
| usser | p-f, run glxinfo and see if you have Software Rasterizer set as your renderer | 20:02 |
| DaveyAM | tks.. and apache is the best choice for my web services here? | 20:02 |
| Izinucs | p-f: another easy solution is to slap in a cheap nvidia card.. | 20:02 |
| Halitech | usser, only issue I've found is devede is looking for mplayer which is installed but can't find it | 20:02 |
| p-f | Izinucs, this is what completely confuses me about ubuntu...releases meaning something | 20:02 |
| Izinucs | p-f: I don't understand what you're trying to say.. can you be more specific? | 20:03 |
| usser | Halitech, you got mplayer and devede from debian-multimedia.org repo? | 20:03 |
| webbb82 | ok so you know if you highlight some text then goto where you want to paste the text and do the middle click it will automaticly paste the text you highlighted but i dont have a middle mouse so i have to use the first and last mouse button at the same time to do a "middle click" is there anyway to change what mouse button to use? | 20:03 |

| pac1 | Is there a way to upgrade squashfs to 4:0 on jaunty? | 20:04 |
| webbb82 | usser: i have a mouse with 4 buttons | 20:04 |
| ktwo | i now got a few different kernels on the grub bootmanager when starting the system, how can i get rid of the old ones i dont use anymore? | 20:04 |
| Halitech | usser, yes I did | 20:05 |
| webbb82 | but im running karmic so it doesnt have xorg.conf | 20:05 |
| usser | webbb82, run xev, try clicking your buttons see if they are recognized, and remap button4 to button3 in xorg.conf | 20:05 |
| usser | webbb82, or whichever you prefer to be middle click | 20:05 |
| p-f | Izinucs, I mean, this is just a video driver we're talking about - why wait for a distro release? | 20:05 |

| Izinucs | p-f: it isn't a repo issue with the driver.. it's that 9.04 had some new stuff in it in the back end that most distros added.. as a result it broke some drivers .. intel & ati.. the primary upgrade contributing to that was xorg 7.1 .. If the drivers aren't opensourced to fix then you have to rely on the mfgr. | 20:06 |

| Billiard | mysoogal: the whole point of wget is being a command line program | 20:19 |
| usser | mysoogal, why do you need a web interface exactly? | 20:19 |
| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, Have you tried burning the disc again to make sure it wasn't just a bad burn? or... does the disc work in another computer? I can't think of anything special about a Fedora disc than any other. | 20:19 |

| PCTeacher012 | carbm1_: I have no free CDs currently, and i can not find my replacement DVD drive | 20:22 |
| Billiard | crohakon: some nrg have a x byte header you need to remove, some nrg are just valid isos, google for the header size | 20:22 |
| rimvis | Tjohejs, do u know how to send file on linux version | 20:22 |
| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, Most Linux CD's do not include an installer for inside another distribution. In my experience it has always needed to be installed directly by booting off the CD and installing to a free partition. | 20:23 |
| skx | Can you make a file public and get an http link to share in Ubuntu One, like in Dropbox? | 20:23 |
| rimvis | Tjohejs, do u know how to send file on skype linux version | 20:23 |
| CopyWriter | sure taking a long time to format to ext4 | 20:23 |
| Tjohejs | rimvis: Not via Skype, no. I dont use it. Cant you use ssh/scp ? | 20:23 |
| usser | PCTeacher012, if you really dont want to burn cds, you can install freebsd in virtualbox, use dd to save the partition from VBox, and dd that partition to a partition on a real drive. thats a bit convoluted but it might just work | 20:23 |
| rimvis | CopyWriter, 15min for 2tb tooked me | 20:23 |
| rimvis | Tjohejs, nah becouse remote pc windows | 20:23 |
| CopyWriter | if i'm downloading the newest skype talking about that do i get the one for debian lenny or ubuntu 8.10 | 20:23 |
| lstarnes | CopyWriter: which version of ubuntu are you using? | 20:24 |
| PCTeacher012 | usser: I am dumbfounded right now :p | 20:24 |
| rigodeni | ok when plug in my MP3 player its not automatically mounted, what do i do? | 20:24 |
| CopyWriter | 9.04 | 20:24 |
| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, I agree with usser ... VirtualBox is a great way to test out Operating Systems or run multiple operating systems at the same time. | 20:24 |
| CopyWriter | i can't wait until the 29th :) | 20:24 |
| rimvis | so how to send file via skype there is no button send file | 20:24 |
| lstarnes | CopyWriter: there's no version for 9.04? | 20:24 |
| Tjohejs | rimvis: Isnt there an sshd compiled for windos, i feel there is. | 20:24 |
| PCTeacher012 | carbm1_: Currently, the other computer is windows vista. It reports the CD has nothing on it, when i know for a fact it does | 20:24 |
| rigodeni | ok when plug in my MP3 player its not automatically mounted, what do i do? | 20:25 |
| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, you may very well have a bad CD then. | 20:25 |
| PCTeacher012 | carbm1_: I have not successfully gotten virtualbox to install another operating system | 20:25 |
| usser | PCTeacher012, or as carbm1_ said do you really want to run that OS your trying to run on real hardware, cause VirtualBox is a great solution for testing stuff out | 20:25 |
| PCTeacher012 | carbm1_: Dang. lol | 20:25 |
| rimvis | Tjohejs, end computer have no clue what is ssh and etc.. want to send via skype | 20:25 |
| PCTeacher012 | usser: I am sure it will run perfectly on my computer. | 20:25 |
| xam | help, i'm getting an error 15: file not found. on start up of ubuntu | 20:26 |
| Tjohejs | rimvis: What if you add sshd.exe or something to it. That way itd also be secure. | 20:26 |
| rigodeni | ok when plug in my MP3 player its not automatically mounted, what do i do? | 20:26 |
| usser | PCTeacher012, the os will run no doubt, but do you really want a new physical OS or are you just testing stuff out | 20:26 |
| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, You can use ISO's with VirtualBox to install and test Operating Systems. Are you interested in just trying out BSD or Fedora or actually running them? | 20:26 |
| usser | PCTeacher012, another option is to setup a PXE server on another computer and boot installer over the network. | 20:26 |
| rimvis | Tjohejs, i want to send photo to a women i dont care if its secure or not | 20:27 |
| xam | no | 20:27 |
| PCTeacher012 | carbm1_ usser: As of now, i am testing it out, usually i run the liveCD to test it (obviously not possible in this case) so i was going to install it on a new partition. I guess i will install virtualbox after i finish downloading freeBSD | 20:27 |
| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, for example... because I am still dependent on Windows I run Windows XP in a VirtualBox session to run whenever I need. But I really don't want to reboot into Windows just to run one program. | 20:27 |
| PCTeacher012 | usser: No idea what a PXE server is | 20:27 |
| PCTeacher012 | carbm1_: Yea | 20:27 |
| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, PXE is a lot more complicated than you need. Please go to the VirtualBox website and add the repo to install the Closed Source version of VirtualBox. It supports USB and a few extra features. | 20:28 |
| Tjohejs | rimvis: Heh, are you sure its a woman ? | 20:28 |
| PCTeacher012 | carbm1_ usser: The funny thing is, i have never been able to burn ANY cd in ubuntu, whether it be gnomebaker, k3b, or brasero | 20:28 |
| PCTeacher012 | carbm1_: Okay, i will soon as current download finishes. What is the website? | 20:28 |
| rigodeni | ok when plug in my MP3 player its not automatically mounted (not shown in Nautilus), what do i do? | 20:28 |
| usser | PCTeacher012, and yea FreeBSD or any BSD for that matter is great | 20:28 |
| xam | help, i'm getting an error 15: file not found. on start up of ubuntu as of today. after the updates | 20:29 |
| PCTeacher012 | usser: I want a unix operating system :P Not posix-complient :p | 20:29 |
| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, http://www.virtualbox.org | 20:29 |
| rimvis | Tjohejs, so do u know how to send file or u just bored and came here for chat | 20:29 |

| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, you really need to make sure you have the repo added to your sources.list or through the GUI. Then install it because it has several dependencies that need to be met from their repo. Please follow the directions on their website again for your version of Ubuntu. | 20:38 |
| PCTeacher012 | Halitech: there is virtualbox-ose. Is that the correct one? | 20:38 |
| Halitech | PCTeacher012, no, that one doesn't have usb support | 20:38 |
| carbm1_ | PCTeacher012, I suggest you really try to make the virtualbox-3.0 work... the oes version is missing a few things. | 20:38 |

| carbm1_ | josh_moore, Yes. You might want to google to figure all that out. But you really should use the alternate CD to do a software RAID install. You understand that RAID0 is not redundant though right? | 20:57 |
| hvgotcodes | usser: thanx | 20:58 |
| usser | hvgotcodes, no problem | 20:58 |
| josh_moore | yeah i know (i do server support and deal with raid all day, not interested in redundancy, just want one large disk | 20:58 |
| hvgotcodes | usser, so i have separate /, /home/, and /data partitions -- that should be good to go right? I want to be able to reinstall without losing home or data... | 20:58 |

| redvamp128 | Additionally for Nvidia users Make sure you have a nvidia-glx driver installed and use the following command to configure your xorg.conf: | 21:17 |
| juju2143 | yay | 21:17 |

| soreau | juju2143: Your question didnt make sense. Try asking in ##c | 21:18 |
| juju2143 | ok thx. | 21:18 |
| bludshot | how about my question, is there a better channel for me to be asking it in? :) | 21:18 |
| soreau | ArcAngel: Try a different known working mpeg file | 21:19 |
| redvamp128 | xoi: you could try the reconfigure sound (though I did have on hardy an issue where I lost sound with a kernel update) so I had to hide the latest - and keep using the early one | 21:19 |
| soreau | ArcAngel: I bet you dollars to donuts the actual file you are testing with is faulty | 21:19 |
| soldats | bludshot: tar and rar and gzip can do that i believe take a look at the man pages | 21:19 |
| ArcAngel | soreau: then it's sony cybershyoty | 21:19 |
| soreau | ArcAngel: If you confirm other mpegs work, then that would be my guess as well | 21:20 |

| bitplane | I'm looking for a video editing tool for the FSF "why you love free software" video campaign | 21:46 |
| stinky | bitplane, I use Blender's compositor, and Cinelerra | 21:46 |
| bitplane | http://www.fsf.org/campaigns/video_testimonial_guidelines/ <- that one | 21:46 |
| Guest64914 | need ubuntu to be displayed only on the svideo-connection but this is black - is there a key-kombi i can use to swich the display to that?? | 21:46 |
| bitplane | cinelerra? I'll look into it thanks :) | 21:46 |
| stinky | bitplane, look at blender 3d too, it has an awesome compositor too | 21:47 |
| bitplane | Blender is a massive tool with a million options, and it isn't the most user friendly of apps | 21:47 |
| bitplane | I really don't fancy investing a lifetime in learning it! | 21:48 |
| soldats | bitplane: is it 3d, realistic, or 2d movie | 21:48 |
| passi_ | hi there | 21:48 |

| logankoester | PCMCIA* | 21:51 |
| Jordan_U | logankoester: Do both show up in network-manager? | 21:51 |
| stinky | logankoester, unplug the onboard one and see if it still works | 21:51 |
| soldats | logankoester: using ifconfig you should be able to shut down the onboard one and bring up the pcmcia one | 21:51 |

| logankoester | Jordan_U: both show up in ifconfig, I removed network-manager in favor of wicd | 21:52 |
| redDEADresolve | apoc_, isnt that the indicator applet | 21:52 |
| Jordan_U | DennisP_: uname -a | 21:52 |
| stinky | DennisP_, look at grub when it first boots, it lists your kernel there | 21:52 |
| DennisP_ | thanks | 21:52 |
| apoc_ | redDEADresolve, I don't know. It's not there for me | 21:52 |
| redDEADresolve | apoc_, then right click and add if if you want it | 21:53 |
| apoc_ | I have the Ubuntu logo in the top-left, just like in Jaunty | 21:53 |
| soldats | logankoester: use ifconfig to turn off the onboard one, sometimes people have experienced problems when 2 interfaces are trying to do the same thing | 21:53 |
| Jordan_U | logankoester: I don't know how to do it with wicd, but with network-manager it's pretty simple to choose between interfaces | 21:53 |
| apoc_ | redDEADresolve, Ok. Indicator Applet or Indicator Applet Session? | 21:53 |
| logankoester | soldats: "ifconfig wlan0 down" doesn't seem to do anything | 21:54 |
| Jordan_U | logankoester: you can also blacklist the module for your PCI card | 21:54 |
| younder | Is there a ext3 driver for windows that works? I tried Ext2Fsd, but that doesn't work. | 21:54 |
| younder | I suppose it has trouble with 256 byte inodes | 21:55 |
| redDEADresolve | apoc_, applet session displays yourname and allows you to log out. if thats what you want use it. in-applet just gives you messages on things that need yoru attention | 21:55 |
| younder | None seem to support journals. (like rollback in a database) | 21:56 |
| Jordan_U | bitplane: I think pitivi has a plugin specifically for doing slideshows | 21:56 |
| apoc_ | redDEADresolve, Ok. Is that the primary way to shut down? | 21:56 |
| fbianconi | younder: ext2ifs used to work on XP for me (I don't have windows anymore) | 21:56 |
| logankoester | Jordan_U: I just switched wicd to use the correct wireless card, now it says no networks found... and I'm still connected | 21:56 |

| giuseppe_ | gjuseppe | 21:57 |
| tstebut | what is it ? | 21:57 |
| redDEADresolve | apoc_, no, you could use the system menu icon, UNR has a logout button on the bottom right hand side of the UNR interface and you canalways shutdown via the command line with sudo shutdown now -h | 21:57 |
| younder | fbianconi: Well when I try to access the Linux drive it askes if I want to reformat the floppy? | 21:57 |
| fbianconi | mojo_o: don't remember, can't check | 21:57 |
| younder | Not exactly what I had in mind.. | 21:58 |
| tstebut | What can I do for this file rights problem ? | 21:58 |
| fbianconi | younder: no it worked fine | 21:58 |
| nconrads | Any karmic users finding they can no longer right-click in Firefox? | 21:59 |
| apoc_ | redDEADresolve, UNR in Karmic doesn't have the bottom-right shutdown button. I can always Ctrl+Alt+Del or sudo halt, but I prefer a proper button | 21:59 |
| rasstar | is it possible to install ubuntu 9.10 to hardware raid 0 | 21:59 |
| rasstar | i installed it on a partition but can't boot it | 21:59 |

| Jordan_U | rasstar: #ubuntu+1 for karmic | 22:00 |
| hvgotcodes | how do i itell if KK is using open source ati drivers or fglrx | 22:00 |
| redDEADresolve | apoc_, well you can add the indicator applet or the shutdown applet. | 22:01 |
| redDEADresolve | apoc_, but ctrl alt delete isnt a bad option. | 22:01 |

| hvgotcodes | del_diablo in Jaunty it was in the hardware drivers program -- | 22:07 |

| maco | rasstar: #ubuntu+1 | 22:07 |
| del_diablo | hvgotcodes: If installed that way it does the dragging down of package and runs "aticonfig --initial" so you don't need to do that yourself. | 22:07 |
| maco | rasstar: also, live CDs of Ubuntu have never supported RAID. you need the alternate cd | 22:08 |

But you can install the pkg "vnc4server" and then run the command `vncserver` on the remote machine and install "vnc4viewer" locally and run `vncviewer <remotehost>:1` or better `vncviewer :1 -via remotehost`. The latter will create an ssh tunnel first. ":1" is the default screen on port 5901, you'll have to check the output of the `vncserver` command. | 22:54 |
| erUSUL | Mocs: that is what the description of the package says « This is the netkit ftp server. It is recommended for you to use one of its alternatives, such as wu-ftpd or proftpd. » | 22:54 |

| kisuke | mojo_o: thanks i didnt think of muteing the speakers themselves tanks | 23:12 |
| kisuke | mojo_o: thanks* | 23:12 |
| chunknuts | You can do some of these: | 23:12 |
| chunknuts | http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt | 23:12 |
| mojo_o | kisuke, that's ok. would be nice if there was a way to detect headset plugin and do that automatically | 23:13 |
| * kisuke facepalms <couldn't see forest for trees> | 23:13 | |
| paissad-hp | i would like to run pm-suspend or reboot as simple user, so i did -> sudo visudo <- in order to edit /etc/sudoers .... but the matter is that i still cannot run thoses command as simple user .. how can i solve that ? | 23:13 |
| kisuke | mojo_o: yes it would | 23:13 |

| chunknuts | really your best bet with kernel modules at boottime is by stying the "modinfo -p" for the module and cross references kernel parameters (kernel parameters is outdated) | 23:14 |
| nxnn14 | Hi the ethernet card in my computer is only recognized and only works after a reboot not when the computer is booted cold. My network card is a realtek RTL8101e with kernel driver r8169. Does anyone have any ideas for this? | 23:14 |
| znh | My laptop harddisk led is continuously flashing. What causes this much activity? | 23:14 |
| paissad-hp | here is my sudoers file http://pastebin.com/f202fd7f1 | 23:14 |
| chunknuts | the best way to disable a module is to use it's blacklist -- it | 23:14 |
| chunknuts | it's somewhere in /etc | 23:14 |
| muscardinus | \me foo | 23:15 |
| * muscardinus foo | 23:15 | |
| erUSUL | !blacklist | 23:15 |
| ubottu | To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » | 23:15 |
| ck773 | nxnn14: you were already told in ubuntu+1 that this is a linux bug and to file it as such. | 23:15 |
| chunknuts | *DING*! | 23:15 |
| vlt | nxnn14: When it's "not recognized" is it at least listed in `lspci`'s output? | 23:15 |
| nxnn14 | vlt: no | 23:15 |
| nxnn14 | vlt: but after a restart it is in lspci and does run as it should | 23:16 |
| synackfin | anyone know how to many mdadm auto-read-only when a raid5 array is degraded? | 23:16 |
| synackfin | how to make* | 23:16 |
| vlt | nxnn14: hmmm, then it sounds more like a BIOS issue to me. No clue then ... | 23:16 |
| chunknuts | no me :) | 23:16 |
| nxnn14 | ck773: I have filed it as a bug previously to no avail, can't I ask a question? | 23:16 |
| chunknuts | brb | 23:16 |
| ck773 | go nuts | 23:16 |
| chunknuts | lol... thanks! | 23:17 |
| chunknuts | I do know how to get NetworkManager working though | 23:17 |
| chunknuts | that's about it | 23:17 |
| chunknuts | brb | 23:17 |
| nxnn14 | vlt: interesting thank you. Ya after a cold boot it is as if I do not even have a network card | 23:17 |
| nxnn14 | vlt: then a restart it works perfectly | 23:17 |

| mojo_o | nxnn14, tried initializing it twice during boot? | 23:18 |
| nxnn14 | mojo_o: what do you mean? | 23:18 |
| znh | My laptop harddisk led is continuously flashing. What causes this much activity? | 23:19 |
| mojo_o | nxnn14, i'm not quite sure where the problem resides, but if it's just a matter of startup scripts, you could start there. if it's in the kernel ... no idea | 23:19 |
| ctmjr | paissad-hp: add this to it under root paissad ALL=(ALL) ALL see if that helps | 23:19 |
| vlt | nxnn14: You could try with another kernel. Booting a live cd like grml.org could be interesting ... | 23:20 |
| nxnn14 | mojo_o: how do i edit the startup scripts and what would you suggest I look at? | 23:20 |
| zash | znh: have a look at the system monitor, might have a clue | 23:20 |
| mojo_o | nxnn14, only other thing i can suggest is to perhaps create a script executed on startup that detects if the adapter is working, if not reboots :-) | 23:20 |
| nxnn14 | vlt: thank you that sounds good | 23:20 |
| mojo_o | nxnn14, i can't advise you on editing startup scripts. the whole situation gets ugly messy | 23:21 |
| nxnn14 | mojo_o: that is not bad, but doesnt eliminate the long boot times for me because I have to go through the process twice | 23:21 |
| nxnn14 | mojo_o: ok fair enough thanks anyways | 23:21 |
| vlt | nxnn14: I you really try grml.org (which is my favourite swiss knife distro) the grml-small edition should be enough for testing the nic. | 23:22 |
| nxnn14 | vlt: ok I will try it out | 23:22 |

| brianherman | reiserfs kills ur wife | 23:26 |
| jonne | gdm also gives a login failure | 23:26 |

| mizipzor | erUSUL: yea, i meant im trying a new distro, and at the same time checking the new filesystem... i just got a bit confused... its reiserfs, not ext3, rest assured | 23:27 |
| mojo_o | CrazyHyena, wasn't cheating though | 23:27 |

| chunknuts | lol | 23:28 |

| mojo_o | yes, and reiserfs was the tool! | 23:29 |

| ctmjr | BoxMagnet: glxinfo | grep render | 23:49 |
| erUSUL | BoxMagnet: run some 3d app ? « glxinfo | egrep -i "(nvidia|direct)" » | 23:50 |
| BoxMagnet | um it says | 23:50 |
| BoxMagnet | glx missing on dispay 0 | 23:50 |
| BoxMagnet | but I just installed the nvidia-180-glx drivers | 23:50 |
| erUSUL | BoxMagnet: configured the xserver/ restarted it ? | 23:51 |
| ctmjr | BoxMagnet: did you reboot | 23:51 |
| BoxMagnet | erUSUL, well, i rebooted. what do I have to configure | 23:51 |
| waagbo | maco: Encrypted part of homedir is not mounted though (understandable :P). | 23:51 |
| erUSUL | !nvidia | BoxMagnet | 23:51 |
| ubottu | BoxMagnet: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 23:51 |
| erUSUL | BoxMagnet: Using System>Admin>hardware drivers does everything for you | 23:52 |
| good | Un caloroso saluto agli amici di #ubuntu, sono di nuovo fra voi!! | 23:52 |
| BoxMagnet | erUSUL, I see nothing in that list | 23:52 |
| good | ciao a tutti | 23:52 |
| mojo_o | billsantos, at a quick glance, it looks like you're doing the allocation wrong | 23:52 |
| Izinucs | BoxMagnet: did you install the driver from nvidia or from System>admin>hardware drivers? | 23:52 |
| erUSUL | !it | good | 23:52 |
| ubottu | good: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) | 23:52 |
| matreya6 | I'm copying a 4GB large fileset (about 512MB/ file) from one AthlonXP 2600+ box(A) running Ubuntu 8.10 to a Core2Duo Box running Ubuntu 9.04 (B) over sftp, using a good 10/100 switch. During the transfer from A to B, the Processor use goes to 100% on box A while my files get transfered in short bursts of a few MB, with a lot of interleave | 23:52 |
| BoxMagnet | Izinucs, from apt | 23:52 |
| BoxMagnet | Izinucs, there is nothing under hardware drivers. | 23:53 |
| Izinucs | BoxMagnet: did you just do a fresh install? | 23:53 |
| Izinucs | BoxMagnet: of the system? | 23:53 |
| BoxMagnet | no | 23:53 |
| erUSUL | matreya6: encription/compression everhead ??? | 23:53 |
| soldats | CrazyHyena: does it need to be an image or just the files, because i have an old dreamcast homebrew disk with a bunch of old nintendo games on it, but it was burned improperly. brasero says it can do it | 23:53 |
| erUSUL | BoxMagnet: then see the webpage a linked for alternative methods of installing configuring | 23:53 |
| matreya6 | erSUL, I though it was that, but I get the same mileage using a common FTP-connection between the two. | 23:54 |
| billsantos | mojo_o, hmm | 23:54 |
| wolter | damn, now I have to reinstall and redownload ubuntu... fml | 23:54 |
| armence | Anyone know where I can get Eclipse 3.3 or 3.4 for Ubuntu? | 23:54 |
| mojo_o | billsantos, the createbatters function should not take an argument but should instead return a pointer to the allocated batters structure | 23:54 |
| BoxMagnet | erUSUL, how do I add the nvidia driver to >hardware drivers | 23:54 |
| wolter | and make a bootable usb.. fml | 23:54 |
| gcrazy | trism, Nothing :( | 23:54 |
| mojo_o | billsantos, so in the main function.. something like... batters = createbatters(); | 23:54 |
| BoxMagnet | Izinucs, its a gefroce mx400 | 23:54 |
| mojo_o | billsantos, and in the createbatters function.. return &batters... with the function declared BATTERS* createbatters(); | 23:55 |
| mojo_o | billsantos, sorry... return batters; ... | 23:55 |
| matreya6 | erSUL, both NIC's are Realtek 8139-based | 23:55 |
| Izinucs | BoxMagnet: try "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" .. the dist-upgrade won't take you to the next release.. just upgrades packages to the next version if available. | 23:55 |
| ryanakca | How can forward all SMTP connections over my VPN (ppp0) and all the other connections over my wireless, wlan0 ? I think I'll need iptables with '-t nat --dport 25 -p tcp', but what else? | 23:56 |
| BoxMagnet | Izinucs, im just going to install the driver from nvidia website. | 23:56 |
| Izinucs | BoxMagnet: if you do that then uninstall the nvidia bits from synaptic and shutdown gdm before installing.. | 23:57 |
| billsantos | mojo_o, thanks I'll give that a go | 23:57 |
| BoxMagnet | Izinucs, will do. | 23:57 |
| erUSUL | BoxMagnet: do "sudo nvidia-xconfig" | 23:57 |
| trism | gcrazy: must be a different problem then what I had, hmm | 23:57 |
| mojo_o | billsantos, no problem | 23:57 |
| gcrazy | trism, Yes, I'm asking in #xorg to see what comes up there | 23:57 |
| BoxMagnet | erUSUL, ok, it says the device isn't in xserver-xorg | 23:57 |
| matreya6 | erSUL, any thoughts on how to find the bottleneck in this issue? | 23:57 |
| Izinucs | BoxMagnet: you need the 96.43 driver according to nvidia references | 23:58 |
| erUSUL | matreya6: well the card is one of the chepest/lower end but shouldn't be that bad | 23:58 |
| dalton2345 | hi everyone, whats the changes with karmic? | 23:58 |
| BoxMagnet | Izinucs, for the geforce? | 23:58 |
| trism | gcrazy: good luck, is it just f1 or f1-6 that are blank? | 23:58 |
| vlt | How do I restart X (Ctrl+Alt+Bckspc doens't work) | 23:58 |
| mom_ | is there a tool to join together a couple mp4 files? | 23:58 |
| mom_ | mom_, videos | 23:58 |
| ctmjr | BoxMagnet: your card is old you need an older driver like Izinucs said | 23:59 |
| Izinucs | BoxMagnet: yes.. check the supported cards link on the left in the grey box http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_96.43.13.html | 23:59 |
| Billiard | mom_: mencoder can do that | 23:59 |
| trism | !dontzap | vlt | 23:59 |
| ubottu | vlt: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 23:59 |
| BoxMagnet | Izinucs, ok, im installing that one in synaptic now | 23:59 |
| mom_ | Billiard, thanks! | 23:59 |
| Izinucs | BoxMagnet: ah.. if it's there that makes it much easier. | 23:59 |
| BoxMagnet | Izinucs, it is. | 23:59 |
| matreya6 | erSUL, I know, I get around 750 kbps mean transfer speed during the bursts | 23:59 |
| vlt | mom_: ffmpeg or mencoder | 23:59 |
| Cyberkilla | Hello, is anybody else getting grey boxes around their tray icons? http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34141884/tmp.png | 23:59 |
