[00:00] <gcrazy> trism, Wait, first of all, how do you end X via keyboard?
[00:00] <Izinucs> BoxMagnet: once installed you might have to log out and back in again to see it in the Hardware Drivers section
[00:00] <znh> Cyberkilla: I clean my room often enough no
[00:00] <BoxMagnet> Izinucs, ill reboot the whole machine to be safe.
[00:00] <Izinucs> BoxMagnet: no need really
[00:00] <trism> gcrazy: if you're on jaunty, see the ubottu message above (or your can sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart)
[00:00] <infid> is there a way to make it so you have a picture on your logon screen? the boring gray thing is, well, boring
[00:00] <BoxMagnet> Izinucs, ok, just log out and back in?
[00:00] <Izinucs> BoxMagnet: yep
[00:00] <BoxMagnet> Izinucs, ok
[00:01] <Cyberkilla> znh: I don't get it:P
[00:01] <Izinucs> BoxMagnet: check first though and see if it shows up without having to do that
[00:01] <aintaer> So far so good
[00:01] <vlt> trism: Thank you.
[00:01] <BoxMagnet> Izinucs, It must be fixed haha the screen is the correct size
[00:01] <aintaer> Guys how do I find out the block size when I'm trying to do an MBR backup?
[00:01] <trism> I can never remember the new key combination
[00:01] <Izinucs> BoxMagnet: tada!
[00:02] <vlt> Restarting X after `sudo nvidia-xconfig` didn't help. It complains about missing nvida X kernel driver. Any idea what to do?
[00:02] <znh> Cyberkilla: lol
[00:02] <BoxMagnet> Izinucs, yep its rendering now, thanks alot man I probably would have never figured out i needed old drivers
[00:02] <dalton2345> what will be the big change in karmic?
[00:02] <billsantos> mojo_o, thanks that worked would have taken me a long time before I would have thought of that
[00:02] <Izinucs> vlt: did you install the nvidia propriatary driver?
[00:02] <erUSUL> !karmic
[00:02] <BoxMagnet> Izinucs, i just got the card for $20 to give a boost to a machine with onboard video hehe, so I picked an old one figuring it would just work.
[00:02] <MrPiracy> how can i convert my 2 first primary partitions to extended?
[00:02] <znh> infid: try searching on google for gdm make own skins
[00:03] <Izinucs> BoxMagnet: that's why were here!  .. we all know a little/lot about a little/lot if you get my drift..
[00:03] <MrPiracy> gparted doesnt give me an option
[00:03] <aintaer> Is it always 512 bytes?
[00:03] <erUSUL> MrPiracy: only one extended partition is alowed per disk
[00:03] <TuTUXG> MrPiracy, that would be possible afaik
[00:03] <vlt> Izinucs: I installed the pkg "nvidia-glx-173" manually because the HArdware Drivers dialog didn't offer it.
[00:03] <BoxMagnet> Izinucs, yea the 3d game still lags though haha
[00:03] <TuTUXG> MrPiracy, wouldn't*
[00:03] <MrPiracy> erUSUL: i know, it is created already, i just want to transform the 2 first partioins on the disk into logical
[00:03] <Cyberkilla> znh: Are you using Karmic RC? If you run pidgin, banshee or the like, changing your gnome-panel's transparency or adding a background image to it will show the problem.
[00:04] <gcrazy> trism, Ok, which is the Sysrq key?
[00:04] <erUSUL> MrPiracy: i do not think you can "convert" a partition... just erase one of the primary ones and make an extended one in its place
[00:04] <gcrazy> :I
[00:04] <znh> Cyberkilla: I'm clean
[00:04] <Cyberkilla> znh: What does that mean?: )
[00:04] <TuTUXG> im dirty
[00:04] <TuTUXG> lol
[00:04] <MrPiracy> erUSUL: yeah, was trying to avoid that cos this operation would take 4 hrs to complete :(
[00:04] <erUSUL> MrPiracy: :|
[00:05] <trism> gcrazy: on my keyboard, same as print screen
[00:05] <Cyberkilla> Damn, it's hard to get any help in these channels.
[00:05] <nicklas_> hey
[00:05] <matreya6> MrPiracy, I am afraid conversions are not possible, just as erSUL has said.
[00:05] <Izinucs> vlt: couple of questions.. did you uninstall the nvidia bits from synaptic first.. did you install from TTY with gdm shutdown?
[00:05] <trism> gcrazy: well, on my desktop, on this laptop it is a fn key under zero
[00:05] <erUSUL> Cyberkilla: karmic support is in #ubuntu+1
[00:05] <gcrazy> trism, I did /etc/init.d/gdm stop, and it didn't went to Console
[00:06] <Mamoncete> One question guys: Does Archive Manager support "rar" files??? I can't open one in my Gnome Desktop??
[00:06] <Mamoncete> thanks
[00:06] <Cyberkilla> I'm already there. Nobody replies there either:P
[00:06] <erUSUL> Mamoncete: you have to install « rar »
[00:06] <MrPiracy> matreya6: i think paragon can do that from windows, but i'm afraid it will mess with my partition table .... everything was created with gparted and sometimes theyŕe not ..er.... "compatible"
[00:06] <Guest61859> join
[00:06] <erUSUL> !rar > Mamoncete
[00:06] <Guest61859> !join jaworzno
[00:06] <gcrazy> trism, But what is it supposed to do?, so I can see which one is here on my laptop.
[00:06] <infid> do i have to reboot after changing my hostname for it to take affect?
[00:06] <vlt> Izinucs: I uninstalled every nvidia* pkg I could find using aptitude, then installed w/o gdm shutdown from an xterm.
[00:06] <trism> gcrazy: what is what supposed to do?
[00:07] <Mamoncete> erUSUL: thanks
[00:07] <Mamoncete> erUSUL: ++
[00:07] <dani> i love me
[00:07] <matreya6> Does anyone know if there is a key-combination to make real hardlinks in Gnome for a selected file?
[00:07] <MrPiracy> erUSUL, matreya6: do you guys have a spare computer i can use tonite? ;)
[00:07] <Izinucs> vlt: that's the right way.. what card do you have?
[00:07] <gcrazy> trism the Sysreq key
[00:07] <erUSUL> MrPiracy: nope soz ;)
[00:07] <ctmjr> gcrazy: ctrl+alt+f1 then /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[00:07] <Izinucs> vlt: also did you install dkms and build-essential?
[00:07] <MrPiracy> well
[00:07] <trism> gcrazy: I have no idea, it is part of the new restart x key combination replacing ctrl+alt+backspace
[00:07] <gcrazy> trism Well it doesn't matter. Did you read what I told you?, I issued /etc/init.d/gdm stop and it went all black :(
[00:08] <trism> ctmjr: the problem is his console is blank on ctrl+alt+f1
[00:08] <Izinucs> gcrazy: ctrl+alt+F2 and log in
[00:08] <vlt> Izinucs: `lspci` says "NV34 GeForce 5200". The driver worked before I unintentionally removed the driver when removing the kernel-headers pkg (which must have been a dependency) ...
[00:08] <gcrazy> Izinucs, I don't get any console
[00:08] <gcrazy> Once I end X it just goes black. No console on any vty
[00:08] <vlt> Izinucs: I'll check dkms and b-e
[00:09] <soldats> sounds like a res problem
[00:09] <matreya6> MrPiracy, I think it would be cheaper to buy a another computer then to fly to me to get my old P3-lappy ;-)
[00:09] <Izinucs> vlt: I didn't see.. did you install 173.14.xx?
[00:09] <mQQsh> Hey everyone.. im trying to get Conky working.  Im reading on the Ubuntu forums and their are two tutorials.  One for EDGY, DAPPER and BREEZY and one for HARDY AND IBEX.  How do I figure out which version of Ubuntu I am running?
[00:09] <Izinucs> gcrazy: reboot
[00:09] <vlt> Izinucs: Both is installed as a dependency of something else (the nvidia pkg maybe)
[00:09] <Guest69959> dsld
[00:09] <MrPiracy> matreya6: fedex, man hehehhe
[00:10] <gcrazy> Izinucs, I already did
[00:10] <CrazyHyena> is there a way to make nautilus display windows executable icons as thumbnails?
[00:10] <matreya6> mQQsh, less /etc/issue
[00:10] <vlt> Izinucs: I installed "nvidia-glx-173"
[00:10] <Izinucs> gcrazy: reboot and go to the rescue mode
[00:10] <gcrazy> trism, Ok I found sysrq, it works to kill X, however it just starts again, and it doesn't show me the console in between
[00:11] <vlt> Izinucs: Any idea why it isn't listed in ubuntu's hardware dirvers dialog?
[00:11] <erUSUL> !version | mQQsh
[00:11] <Izinucs> vlt: it's an older card.. did you download from here.... http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_173.14.20.html
[00:11] <mQQsh> matreya6, I entered that and it says Ubuntu 9.04 \n \l
[00:11] <erUSUL> mQQsh: jaunty
[00:11] <matreya6> mQQsh, so you are running Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope
[00:11] <erUSUL> mQQsh: use the ibex one
[00:12] <mQQsh> matreya6 awesome thanks a lot
[00:12] <gcrazy> Izinucs, Ok done. What now?
[00:12] <gcrazy> I'm in the recovery menu
[00:12] <vlt> Izinucs: No, I just want to re-install it as it was before I unintentionally removed it from apt.
[00:12] <mQQsh> erUSUL: thanks guys
[00:12] <matreya6> mQQsh, You got this channel to thank for that, I learned iit here.
[00:13]  * vlt checks aptitude.log to see what else was removed ...
[00:13] <Izinucs> vlt: if you want to do it from apt or synaptic you'll need to install nvidia-173-kernel-source nvidia-common nvidia-settings and maybe more
[00:13] <MrPiracy> i have a theme that worked on a previous install of ubuntu, but now i copy it to /usr/share/themes and /usr/share/gdm/themes and nothing appears in the desktop background themes. why is that?
[00:14] <Izinucs> gcrazy: ok.. I've missed it what are you trying to do ?
[00:14] <matreya6> mQQsh, run uname -a to see if you are using a 32-bits, or 64-bitter
[00:14] <gcrazy> Izinucs, then why you told me to go on recovery mode?
[00:14] <d0wn> What's a good GUI client for SFTP?
[00:14] <d0wn> One other than Filezilla
[00:14] <gcrazy> Which is the command to manually configure xorg?
[00:15] <matreya6> d0wn, GFTP is pretty good, but I still prefer FileZilla
[00:15] <erUSUL> d0wn: nautilus itsef ? Places>Connect to Server
[00:15] <Izinucs> gcrazy: you're trying to get to a text based login.. you can do it from there... that is if sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop renders your screen black/blank
[00:15] <gcrazy> dpkg -reconfigure xorg or something like that
[00:15] <dalton2345> is karmic usable right now?
[00:15] <aj_444> dalton2345: very much so. The RC is out.
[00:15] <soldats> it used to be sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[00:15] <d0wn> Thanks, I'll try those
[00:15] <joaopinto> !karmic | dalton2345
[00:15] <matreya6> dalton2345, only in non-prod. environments, to test it
[00:15] <vlt> Izinucs: nvidia-common is missing, installing it right now
[00:16] <Izinucs> vlt: you might also need nvidia-glx-173-dev
[00:16] <ctmjr> gcrazy: what are you trying to do?
[00:16] <snuffy47> can someone help me with jaunty and a PCMCIA Netgear wireless card
[00:16] <dalton2345> so u think i could use it now, before the release madness
[00:16] <Izinucs> vlt: also nvidia-173-modaliases
[00:16] <matreya6> I hope they finally fixed Network Manager so that it can handle multiple NIC's in one machine...
[00:16] <gcrazy> ctmjr I want to configure xorg manually with the menu for configuration that used to be dpkg-reconfigure xserver something like taht
[00:16] <erUSUL> 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[00:17] <aj_444> dalton2345: yeah. I'm using it right now and I have no problems.
[00:17] <Billiard> snuffy47: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsNetgear#PCMCIA
[00:17] <ctmjr> gcrazy: do what erUSUL posted
[00:17] <dalton2345> aj_444: ok, ty
[00:18] <snuffy47> rgr
[00:19] <kennyH> hello guys!
[00:19] <drewbert> hello
[00:19] <matreya6> dalton2345, If you grab the new release with BitTorrent, you won't feel any slowness, because everyone also downloading it, will help you as peer
[00:20] <dalton2345> matreya6: thx
[00:20] <kennyH> I am looking forward to know how to ajust my lcd bright level and also I want to know if I have all drives correctly installed on my laptop. Could someone help me please?
[00:20] <matreya6> dalton2345, np :-)
[00:21] <matreya6> kennyH, usually you have an Fn-key that lets you handle the brightness combined with another key
[00:21] <drewby> Hello, so I'm running ubuntu 9.04 and I downloaded a bootable dvd, in the folder there's a setup.exe a bootmgr.efi, and a bootmgr file and some other folder, how do i burn this files ontoa dvd such that I can boot from it
[00:22] <pilibeen> I seem to have a bug w/ Rhythmbox - when I double click a file in nautilus to play, RB just plays the track it last played
[00:22] <matreya6> kennyH, just look around on the keyboard and search for keys with a sun-symbol, or a circle with half-blakc and half-white
[00:22] <ctmjr> !iso | drewby
[00:22] <chairon6x3> I can't get Windows Wireless Drivers to open properly should I try a uninstall/reinstall?
[00:22] <matreya6> kennyH, half-blakc => half-black
[00:22] <domjohnson> Bye
[00:22] <drewby> ctmjr: i don't have an ISO, i wish i had an iso, i know how to burn those
[00:22] <ctmjr> drewby oops wrong one sorry
[00:23] <Izinucs> vlt: how'd it go?
[00:23] <matreya6> chairon6x3, what kind of WL-NIC do you have?
[00:23] <vlt> Izinucs: nvidia-common also installed -modaliases. Now the Hardware drivers dialog offers the driver for my card again. When I click on "activate" I can see a "downloading and installing" window for avout one second and that's all.
[00:23] <vlt> *about
[00:23] <geirha> drewby: Right-click the iso-file and choose burn
[00:23] <Izinucs> vlt: do you get a reboot option?
[00:24] <vlt> Izinucs: No
[00:24] <drewby> geirha: i DO NOT have an iso
[00:24] <kennyH> matreya6, yes. I do have it. But I don't think it is working right now. When I press it all it does is blink a square on top right which doesn't seens to be working...
[00:24] <The_Journey> how do I install the boost library in ubuntu?
[00:24] <gcrazy> erUSUL ctmjr, I'm getting 'xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwritting possibly-customised configuration' 'file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.2009102418...'
[00:24] <erUSUL> drewby: you should see the documentation asociated with the dvd you are trying to writte
[00:24] <Izinucs> go to a tty not a terminal and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart .. see if that fixes anything.
[00:25] <drewby> erUSUL: it's a windows 7 download from digital river
[00:25] <erUSUL> gcrazy: that's normal. it makes a backup before creating the new conf
[00:25] <chairon6x3> It's a Intel I have drivers for it downloaded and it came with a Linux set but I'm slightly clueless on how to do this
[00:25] <The_Journey> how do I install the boost library in ubuntu?
[00:25] <mojo_o> drewby, maybe the setup file does extracts it or something
[00:25] <erUSUL> drewby: maybe that setup.exe assembles the iso in windows ... how it does that? we can not know...
[00:25] <drewby> damn
[00:25] <gcrazy> erUSUL, yes, but the thing is I'm not getting anything else :)
[00:25] <matreya6> kennyH, it looks like your brightness GUI only wil show on graphical modes
[00:25] <chairon6x3> last time I did this I ended up completely deleted my nic support
[00:26] <drewby> it seems the only way to get windows is to already have windows
[00:26] <mojo_o> drewby, lol! try wine
[00:26] <servo888> Hey all - I'm running Ubuntu in x86_64, and Flash keep crashing when I reload some pages in Firefox... I can't listen to Pandora, because it'll just die if I start browsing in other tabs...
[00:26] <erUSUL> gcrazy: normal again. he created an alternative configuration file. to test it you have to bring up xserver
[00:26] <drewby> mojo_o: 10 steps aheady of you, wouldn't run the setup file
[00:27] <erUSUL> drewby: you should have bought the boxed version ;P
[00:27] <gcrazy> erUSUL Isn't there a command that Gives you a text based automated configuration for X?, where you put the refresh rates, and then asks about the video card, the monitor, the keyboard layout
[00:27] <gcrazy> It's an automated thing
[00:27] <kennyH> matreya6, isn't there a control panel I could use to ajust it or see how it is currently set ?
[00:27] <erUSUL> gcrazy: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[00:27] <matreya6> chairon6x3, I'd advise you to wait until Karmic comes out on the 29th, as you may have a NIC that experiences a dangerous bug in Jaunty, causing the Graphic chip firmware to be corrupted...
[00:27] <mojo_o> drewby, do you have win xp or something lying around?
[00:27] <holmser> anyone here experienced with shell scripting?
[00:28] <chairon6x3> I had problems with connecting when using intrepid as well
[00:28] <drewby> mojo_o: yeah, it looks like i'm gonna have try that
[00:28] <dalton2345> ubuntu one looks like a cool feature
[00:28] <chairon6x3> for some reason the last two builds offered almost no support for my card
[00:28] <drewby> install an OS to install an OS
[00:28] <drewby> ... ridiculous
[00:28] <mojo_o> yes
[00:29] <matreya6> kennyH, usually these kind of things are builtin right into your lappy's BIOS
[00:29] <drewby> well I don't blame anyone here of course, thanks for your help guys
[00:29] <drewby> i'm gonna get started
[00:29] <mojo_o> drewby, have fun
[00:29] <drewby> mojo_o: oh tons
[00:29] <mojo_o> :-)
[00:29] <terin_webchat> does anyone know if the "Eclipse Team" PPA works under jaunty?
[00:29] <mQQsh> I installed conky then created a .conkyrc in my home directory.  I added a sample config to the file and saved it then ran conky in terminal.   Everything showed up on the desktop but now terminal is looping through something saying "not all processes could be identified, no-owned process info will not be shown, you would have to be root to see it all.)"  Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions
[00:29] <matreya6> chairon6x3, please paste the output of: lspci | grep Ethernet
[00:29] <snuffy47_> billard I did the sudo install pcmcia-cs wireless-tools dhcpcd in the terminal of my ubuntu desktop but when I restarted with the card installed it freezes at the load screen
[00:30] <kennyH> matreya6, and how about drivers?
[00:30] <carbm1_> Guys, I think I just had Grub2 from a Wubi install of 9.10 rewrite the Master MBR on the disk.  Anybody else had problems with this?  Grub2 config is so much more confusing than the original.
[00:31] <paralelo> carbm1_ take it easy
[00:31] <holmser> I'm trying to pipe the output from a sqlite query into a text file, but it won't pipe
[00:31] <Billiard> snuffy47_: idk ive never had to setup a card myself
[00:31] <holmser> any way to get around that?
[00:31] <gcrazy> erUSUL, that starts the configuration script that I'm talking about, however it just goes until keyboard configuration :(

[00:31] <carbm1_> paralelo, oh.. I'm easy. I can just fdisk /mbr to fix it... I think its a bug.
[00:31] <vlt> Izinucs: I restarted X and then the whole machine. X still complains "(EE) ... unable to load nvidia kernel module"
[00:31] <mQQsh> how can i set conky to run everytime I start up?
[00:32] <matreya6> kennyH, mostly there are no specific drivers available for a specific laptop, unless you have a really common one that its well supported by Linux (read: invests some time in providing support for Linux)
[00:32] <soldats> mQQsh: put it in your .xinitrc file
[00:32] <matreya6> kennyH, what brand and type do you have?
[00:32] <The_Journey> can anyone help me please on how to install boost in ubuntu? I tried synaptic but my program still complains about not finding the headers
[00:32] <Izinucs> vlt: have you tried booting into the rescue mode and reconfiguring x from there?
[00:32] <mojo_o> holmser, perhaps try 2> or 1>
[00:33] <kennyH> matreya6, I got a acer aspire 5720z
[00:33] <matreya6> kennyH, Acer is not exactly famous for Linux support :-/
[00:33] <vlt> Izinucs: What is rescue mode? kernel param "single"?
[00:33] <timewriter> hi
[00:33] <mQQsh> soldats: sorry this is my first day on ubuntu.. where can I find the xinitrc file?
[00:33] <evan_> hi
[00:33] <Izinucs> vlt: on the grub menu .. it's typically the 2nd option
[00:34] <snuffy47_> reading some more but if someone knows a good tuturial for installing a netgear pcmcia card let me know :)
[00:34] <kennyH> matreya6, why do you think so.. do you think they sell well with windows?
[00:34] <paralelo> soldats: Places-> find
[00:34] <soldats> mQQsh: its a hidden file in your home directory called ".xinitrc" somewhere at the bottom of the file add something like "exec conky" and when you restart it should come up
[00:34] <Jkessler> m00sh:  go to System -> Preferences -> Startup applications you can add it there
[00:34] <matreya6> kennyH, what kind of GPU do you have? (Graphical Card)
[00:34] <mQQsh> soldats: awesome im gonna go try that
[00:34] <Jkessler> that's where i add startup programs in jaunty
[00:34] <kennyH> matreya6, not sure. how do I check it?
[00:34] <Izinucs> What's eol for 8.10?  middle of next year?
[00:34] <matreya6> kennyH, lspci | grep VGA
[00:34] <soldats> paralelo: i know where i was explaining :) i use cli exclusively
[00:35] <chairon6x3> I downloaded the entirety of ethernet drivered for my laptop and just need to know how to get them working.
[00:35] <chairon6x3> the laptop drivers even offered a Linux set of drivers
[00:35] <paralelo> soldats: do you?
[00:35] <kennyH> matreya6, Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[00:36] <matreya6> chairon6x3, Nice, but did they include any instructions as well? Is there no README included?
[00:36] <matreya6> chairon6x3, Or better still...an INSTALL file?
[00:36] <terin_webchat> kennyH: good luck getting that working
[00:36] <vlt> Izinucs: I have a modified grub menu but remember there was a second option ;-)  Is there anything else than "sinlge" to enter "rescue mode"?
[00:36] <kennyH> terin_webchat, ?
[00:36] <Izinucs> vlt: nope
[00:36] <chairon6x3> I'll recheck for a install but there was no readme. that was the first thing I looked for.
[00:36] <rww> Izinucs: April 2010
[00:36] <soldats> paralelo: yes
[00:37] <jo_> hey, what is most secure sftp or sshfs ?
[00:37] <paralelo> soldats: ok
[00:37] <mom_> i cant get the two to merge . . .
[00:37] <matreya6> terin_webchat, , kennyH, usually Intel has good Linux support
[00:37] <Izinucs> rww: thanks.. gotta get cracking and clean my system up then.. I'll make the jump to 9.10 after backing up /home and doing a fresh install for full ext4 support
[00:37] <rww> jo_: they're equally secure, afaik.
[00:38] <mQQsh> soldats: there is no .xinitrc file or folder hidden in my directory... could it be under something else?
[00:38] <jo_> rww: tx, what would you use?
[00:38] <soldats> mQQsh: remember when you add the part i said above to add a & to it so it should look like "exec conky &" then it should come up on each boot, you can also tell it where to sit each time using geometry locations but
[00:38] <terin_webchat> matreya6: yeah... i just have GPU troubles, period
[00:38] <rww> jo_: whichever was more convenient
[00:38] <soldats> mQQsh: you can make the file by yourself if you dont have one
[00:38] <ylynfatt> I seem to be unable to boot into Ubuntu 9.10. I see the ubuntu logo when it's booting but then the screen goes blank. Could someone assist?
[00:39] <rww> ylynfatt: Ubuntu 9.10/Karmic support is in #ubuntu+1, since it hasn't been released yet.
[00:39] <jo_> rww: If you have to stay connected sshfs better probably?
[00:39] <soldats> mQQsh: remember to make the file with a period in front of it to make it hidden ie. ".xinitrc"
[00:39] <emathis> hi #ubuntu! can some one tell me if one still needs to use the atl install CD for setting up raid and LVM on 9.04?
[00:39] <rww> jo_: probably
[00:39] <ylynfatt> rww: okay thanks
[00:39] <mQQsh> soldats: cool thanks a lot for the help
[00:39] <jo_> rww: tx!
[00:39] <rww> emathis: yes
[00:40] <danny> anybody now how to install opengl for ubuntu?
[00:40] <emathis> thanks rww!
[00:40] <mom_> mencoder part1.mp4 part2.mp4 -ovc copy -oac copy -of lavf format=mp4 -o output.mp4 should take 2 mp4s and make one long mp4?
[00:41] <Izinucs> emathis: but on 9.10 you won't need the alternate
[00:41] <emathis> reaLLY!
[00:42] <brunner> where are the resolution settings stored on my hard drive?  I want to use unison to keep my home directory on two different computers in sync, but they have two different screen solutions as one is a laptop, and one is a desktop.
[00:42] <keith> hey
[00:42] <Izinucs> emathis: that's what I've read ;)
[00:42] <darkclouds> hello, i need some help
[00:42] <Jkessler> danny:  isn't opengl support added with the graphics drivers?  you can go to system -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager    ..  Search for "opengl"  and see if there's any packages you want
[00:42] <keith> i just a little laptop from dell with ubuntu 8.04 on it
[00:42]  * emathis googles again
[00:42] <chairon6x3> apparently I have to build it.
[00:42] <keith> opps got
[00:42] <Jkessler> opengl just works for me without any special configuration after i installed my graphics drivers
[00:42] <danny> i tried that...nothing came up
[00:43] <chairon6x3> found a file that doesn't say Read Me.  Just said Text lol
[00:43] <Jkessler> danny: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[00:43] <Afrix> fsufitch, I can haz virus ftw o//
[00:43] <keith> 8.04lts
[00:43] <matreya6> kennyH, check out this link: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/intel-graphics-performance-guide-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html
[00:44] <dalton2345> is karmic rc is a live cd?
[00:44] <matreya6> dalton2345, yes it is
[00:44] <b0nn> hrm, I'm looking for a way to display on two monitors (but from one video card)
[00:44] <vlt> Izinucs: What is the name of the kernel module that X is missing?
[00:44] <CyberKitsune> Can someone please assist me in making BIND9 Work? I followed the wiki's instructions, but, it's not working.
[00:45] <danny> i have an intel...and apparantly opengl is not installed becaus doom3 doesnt run at all
[00:45] <emathis> Izinucs: still showing to use the atl CD  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/daily/current/
[00:45] <matreya6> CyberKitsune, check out the bind# channel for that
[00:45] <dalton2345> matreya6: cool
[00:45] <CyberKitsune> oh
[00:45] <CyberKitsune> k
[00:45] <meanburrito920_> what is the current version of the linux kernel that should be installed? because I'm on .14, but I see that there are also .15, .28, etc out
[00:45] <emathis> I was hoping for the sazzy graphics this round
[00:45] <keith> wow alot of questions here
[00:45] <rww> meanburrito920_: what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[00:45] <meanburrito920_> karmic
[00:45] <keith> h
[00:45] <matreya6> CyberKitsune, ganbatte ne...
[00:46] <Jkessler> danny:  i'm a noob too sorry I can't help more, but i'd check my graphics drivers first make sure the best ones are installed.
[00:46] <vlt> !karmic | meanburrito920_
[00:46] <danny> its cool...thanks tho
[00:46] <cameron> is there any way to make the terminal that runs init jump back to bash? I'm doing a serial connection to boot, and I'm trying to use the terminal after I've booted. running exec init 5 & doesn't seem to work.
[00:46] <Izinucs> emathis: I saw it on a write up about lvm by some independant person.. sorry I don't have a link
[00:46] <Jkessler> like i said, my opengl works fine.. all i did was install my card's proprietary drivers ..  i run WoW in opengl
[00:46] <rww> meanburrito920_: 2.6.31-14
[00:46] <meanburrito920_> vlt: the question was just general, its not specific to karmic
[00:46] <mQQsh> i tried a new config for conky... how can I restart it or close it out and reopen it to see if the new config work?
[00:46] <Izinucs> vlt: kernel module ??? let me look in syanptic
[00:47] <vlt> meanburrito920_: karmic uses a different kernel
[00:47] <Izinucs> nvidia-176-kernel-source ?? vlt
[00:47] <Izinucs> *173
[00:48] <cameron> Does init require an open terminal all the time? Is there any command to have it run in another terminal?
[00:48] <Thorn> Can someone help me install this goddamn program.  I CANNOT do it.
[00:48] <aliciapg> does anyone know where i can get help with the program musescore?
[00:48] <matreya6> Thorn, !language
[00:48] <cameron> I want to be able to type exec init 5 but still have access to the terminal I have open...
[00:49] <soldats> cameron: add an & to the end of it
[00:49] <matreya6> !language | Thorn
[00:49] <nvicf> hello there guys, I'm having a problem, I've installed a linux server, 4 nics, network 192.168.3.x, 192.168.4.x, 192.168.5.x, when I transfer files from 192.168.4.x to 192.168.3.x, works, except for a windows server, it starts transferring if only one pc is transferring, if I use two pcs to copy files it losts the connection. I've tried changing speed on the ethlink, setting bridge, tracing with tcpdump, seeing if it was an arp error, watching with netstat
[00:49] <mojo_o> !ask | Thorn
[00:49] <cameron> soldats, tried, init says "init: Unable to send message: Connection refused"
[00:49] <vlt> Izinucs: There's no such module loaded or existing in /lib/modules
[00:50] <cameron> Is there a command to execute a program in another terminal?
[00:50] <Pricey> Thorn: What program are you trying to install?
[00:50] <gcrazy> trism, I'm pretty sure the problem is gdm automaticly loading itself at startup
[00:50] <danny> anybody know where to get quake3 or 4 for ubuntu?
[00:50] <gcrazy> Do you know how can I change this behaviour?
[00:50] <Izinucs> vlt: sorry that was a package.. this might just be easier to install the propriatory driver :(
[00:50] <vlt> Izinucs: But there's an "nvidia-173.14.16" directory in /usr/src
[00:50] <nvicf> nobody?
[00:50] <soldats> cameron: the ampersand allows the command to run in the backround as if it were another terminal "exec init 5 &"
[00:51] <Thorn> Pricey: http://biblioteq.sourceforge.net/download.html
[00:51] <cameron> soldats, for some reason init doesn't like it. It gives the message I posted earlier..
[00:51] <Pricey> danny: Buy the game, then see http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/
[00:51] <fsufitch> Afrix, thanks :)
[00:51] <Izinucs> vlt: when synaptic doesn't work I go right for nvidia.com.. you just have to reinstall the driver with every kernel upgrade
[00:51] <Thorn> Pricey: The install instructions are in the tar.  I satisified all the dependencies, but I can get the thing to START
[00:51] <danny> Pricey: the regular game for windows?
[00:52] <aliciapg> does anyone know where i can get help with the program musescore?
[00:52] <soldats> cameron: gnome has some kind of terminal you can get to by hitting ctrl + f1 iirc it might work like that im not sure since i havent used those wms in a real long time
[00:52] <matreya6> aliciapg, there is probably a #muse channel right here on Freenode
[00:52] <Pricey> danny: yep, check out that site for more information
[00:52] <Jkessler> danny:  you can download the program files from the ubuntu repositories but you have to own a copy to get the .pak files  ..   if you're looking for a good free shooter, I recommend nexiuz.   based on one of the quake engines, i think 1?  very addictive.   urbanterror is great too
[00:52] <camillem> Hi. Trying a fresh install of karmic RC but installation hangs at step 2 (choosing time ) The PC (vaio) had no pb under Jaunty. Anybody has an idea ?
[00:52] <lazyshrk> aliciapg: http://www.musescore.org/en/forum
[00:53] <soldats> camillem: try #ubuntu+1
[00:53] <Pricey> danny: it uses the windows version data files, and that website gives its own binaries
[00:53] <camillem> soldats : thanks !
[00:53] <soldats> np
[00:53] <cameron> soldats, I don't have access to gnome at all. The device ubuntu is running on doesn't have inputs at all, I have to serial to it.
[00:53] <Pricey> Thorn: What error do you get when you ry and start it?
[00:53] <danny> oh ok cool...and nexius and urbanterror i can get from the ubuntu repos?
[00:53] <vlt> Izinucs: Yes, that's the problem. I just want to have it back the way it worked two hours ago. Why is the "downloading and installing" message only shown for one second? The downloading part isn't necessary, ok, but the installing should run something like `m-a a-i`. But I can't see anything in that Hardware Drivers dialog ... :/
[00:53] <brunner> what's the easiest way to remotely cause a computer to power up?
[00:54] <Izinucs> danny: if not there.. there's newer ones at www.getdeb.net
[00:54] <soldats> cameron: well another option is to use screen and multiplex a few terminals
[00:54] <jo_> Is it possible to set up a apache webserver on a different port than port 80, for example, if you type in www.myadress.com can I make it rederect to www.myadress.com:9876
[00:54] <danny> oh ok....goin to check it out now
[00:54] <cameron> soldats, I was thinking about it. Maybe init won't whine then....
[00:54] <Izinucs> vlt: that process is a mystery for me.. If you want I can walk you through the download and install of nvidia's drivers from the site
[00:54] <vlt> jo_: Running is possible of course. But "typing in" assumes port 80 in most browsers
[00:55] <soldats> cameron: screen is amazing it can do a lot it might help greatly in your situation as long as youre comfortable with using it
[00:55] <vlt> Izinucs: WILCO
[00:55] <danny> can i add getdeb.com as a repository?
[00:55] <skx> which package causes gnome to show "sign" and "encrypt" options in the context menu? I have gpg and gpa installed, keys generated, but using terminal each time to sign a file is somewhat inconvenient
[00:55] <Izinucs> vlt: first open synaptic package manager and search for nvidia and uninstall all the nvidia bits
[00:55] <cameron> soldats, I've used it a little, not as much because I'm used to tabbing terms in Gnome on my desktop :)
[00:55] <jo_> vlt: Can you make brouwsers use an alternative port immediatly?
[00:56] <chairon6x3> ok I'm stuck again at the begining of the text talking about building the driver it gives me a termial line to use and it says that the command is not supported.  Is there an easier way to build?
[00:56] <rww> skx: seahorse-plugins, I think.
[00:56] <matreya6> danny, just search for getdeb on Launchpad, if it does have an acoount there it should show you how to add the repo
[00:56] <skx> rww, thank you, will check that
[00:56] <danny> oh ok...
[00:56] <soldats> cameron: ahh well give it a try it might work. remember ctrl+a+c new term and ctrl+space can switch between 2 terms
[00:56] <vlt> jo_: You can send a redirect HTTP response ... from a service on port 80
[00:56] <WL_> does anyone know why I  9.10 won't connect to my wireless network it has WPA2 but it works if i turn the encryption off
[00:57] <matreya6> chairon6x3, did you read INSTALL and README before trying to build the driver?
[00:57] <lazyshrk> WL_: #ubuntu+1
[00:57] <thebitguru> Hi, can someone help me setup xorg? http://i36.tinypic.com/1671lp1.jpg is what I am getting right now.
[00:57] <jo_> vlt: I just don't have acces to port 80, any alternatives?
[00:57] <WL_> thanks
[00:57] <Jkessler> danny:  yup urbanterror anyway.  you'll want to get the latest version of nexiuz from their site.  you just extract the archive into your home directory and run one of the executables.  no tough installation
[00:57] <Thorn> Pricey:  I don't get any errors.  If I run the command in the terminal it says its not found.  If I run the script from /usr/local/bin nothing happens
[00:57] <chairon6x3> yeah I was trying to follow the so called readme step by step.  and there was no installer for it.
[00:57] <lazyshrk> thebitguru: do you have more than one monitor?
[00:57] <Jkessler> i'm dyslexic..   nexuiz
[00:58] <matreya6> jo_, maybe 8080 works, it is the standard proxy port
[00:58] <thebitguru> lazyshrk: no, just one connected, I am SSH'ing from another computer
[00:58] <danny> ok nice
[00:58] <jyncka> has anyone  had issues with setting up virtualhost on a local server?  I hit the wrong page when I type what should be the correct url
[00:58] <vlt> jo_: Tell me exactly what you want to do and what you expect from the browser.
[00:59] <thebitguru> lazyshrk: would you like to see the xorg.conf and the log files?
[00:59] <kennyH> Is there available any better application to view pdf than Ubuntu default one (Document Viewer)?
[00:59] <matreya6> Jyncka, I'm assuming you are running Apache2?
[00:59] <vlt> Izinucs: Ok, `aptitude search nvidia | grep ^i` returns nothing now.
[00:59] <lazyshrk> thebitguru; not sure i can help, but ok.. seems to be a vsync refresh thing
[00:59] <thebitguru> hmm...
[00:59] <jyncka> matreya6: yes
[00:59] <thebitguru> lazyshrk: let me verify those in the TV manual, brb
[01:00] <vlt> kennyH: okular from KDE or the proprietary acroread
[01:00] <lazyshrk> thebitguru: ok
[01:00] <matreya6> jyncka, Apache2 is a complex program, so you better ask a specialized channel like #apche
[01:00] <matreya6> jyncka, Apache2 is a complex program, so you better ask a specialized channel like #apache
[01:00] <jyncka> matreya6: thanks, I'll go ask them
[01:00] <jo_> vlt: Well, I'm getting some ports from a NAT server in a network behind witch I'm gonna set up my server. The port 80 wil probably be taken by another site. So I want to make DNS rederect immediatly to a different port. tx
[01:00] <Izinucs> vlt: ok.. go here and download the driver http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_173.14.20.html
[01:01] <Izinucs> vlt: save to your desktop
[01:01] <Izinucs> vlt: you using 2 computers?
[01:01] <matreya6> jo_, DNS-redirecting can't be done based on ports,, DNS only accepts hostnames and IP-addresses
[01:01] <Frings> danny have you tried quakelive
[01:02] <trism> gcrazy: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove should do the trick, why do you want to disable gdm?
[01:02] <vlt> Izinucs: Yes, at least ;-)
[01:02] <soldats> gdm is ugly
[01:02] <jo_> matreya6: to bad, I'll have to find another way
[01:02] <vlt> jo_: You can't port redirect via DNS
[01:02] <chairon6x3> seems like the linux build is geared more for Red Hat.
[01:02] <Izinucs> vlt: good because you're going to have to shut down gdm.. is your irc client on a machine that you're not configuring right now?
[01:03] <chairon6x3> cause half the commands is says to use for building don't exist.
[01:03] <jo_> vlt: tx for helping out :)
[01:03] <vlt> Izinucs: It's 600 km away from me in a screen :) session
[01:03] <matreya6> trism, grcrazy, gdm does not have as many features as KDM does
[01:03] <gcrazy> trism, because I'm pretty sure is the one causing the trouble.
[01:03] <gcrazy> I booted with recovery mode
[01:03] <gcrazy> entered as root
[01:03] <Izinucs> vlt: ah! another screen user.. so you're configuring a machine remotely?
[01:03] <gcrazy> then passed to regular user, and started gdm and when i tried to go back to console it did the same
[01:03] <kennyH> vlt, thank you!
[01:04] <trism> gcrazy: but you can get to the console if you startx?
[01:04] <danny> umm no no.....how do i get it?
[01:04] <trism> gcrazy: and then ctrl+alt+f1-6?
[01:04] <soldats> screen is one of the best window managers ever
[01:04] <Izinucs> vlt: is the download done?
[01:04] <vlt> Izinucs: No, the nvidia box is right infront of me
[01:04] <Izinucs> vlt: ah.. you running irssi in screen?
[01:04] <aliciapg> lazyshrk: forum = to slow but thanks
[01:04] <vlt> Izinucs: Yes and yes
[01:05] <gcrazy> trism, lol good idea, I was actually going to try it AFTER removing gdm
[01:05] <matreya6> soldats, I wouldn't call screen a wm, it's more of a terminal manager
[01:05] <gcrazy> lol let me try that now
[01:05] <_Techie_> [AMSG] seeys everyone
[01:05] <Izinucs> vlt: good.. are you at a tty?
[01:05] <fxhp> What causes my sound to randomly break?
[01:05] <fxhp> And reboot fixes it?
[01:05] <matreya6> fxhp, are you using Pulse?
[01:05] <vlt> Izinucs: No, why?
[01:05] <fxhp> matreya6: Yes I am usin pulse audio
[01:06] <soldats> matreya6: it can be used like one, if youre a total cli person than having a multiplexer like screen is just as good as any wm if not better
[01:06] <thebitguru> lazyshrk: the manual says 60Hz sync. Here are the files, xorg.conf: http://dpaste.com/111522/ xorg log: http://www.pastethat.com/BePmo
[01:06] <Izinucs> vlt: you need to ctrl+alt+F2 to get to a tty so we can shut down gdm.. do you know how to get back to your screen/irssi session from a tty?
[01:06] <matreya6> soldats, True, but there no such thing as windows in a terminal, just Virtual Terminal Screeens.
[01:06] <vlt> Izinucs: Yes, no problem
[01:07] <repnop> screen+ssh = a lot of my time on a computer :p
[01:07] <Izinucs> vlt: k.. do you know how to split a screen window so you can watch irssi on the top and issue bash commands on the bottom?
[01:07] <repnop> really makes it so location doesn't matter, quite nice.
[01:07] <vlt> Izinucs: Yes
[01:07] <vlt> Izinucs: I even can c&p there ;-)
[01:07] <matreya6> fxhp, Pulse is not configured as it should, there are some good pages on how to get it to work properly, just asa sec...
[01:07] <Izinucs> vlt: then lets do it!  get to a tty and let me know when your in it
[01:08] <soldats> matreya6: i know, technically it isnt but i said it acts like one if each screen were a window and you were a cli person. at least thats how i view it since its the way i do it
[01:08] <ylynfatt> Does empathy have support for proxies?
[01:09] <matreya6> soldats, Yes you are right, sorry for being such a smartass...;-)
[01:09] <vlt> Izinucs: wtf, the tty is black w/ some blinking dots. I'll ssh to the machine ... brb
[01:09] <soldats> naw its cool i kinds was as well, im just glad to see other screen enthusiasts around matreya6
[01:09] <Mamoncete> Anyone using FRONT module? It doesn't supply with the $messages string so when the user is trying to log in and fails you can not let him know. Any clue?
[01:09] <daveycal> i was going to do a fresh install of the rc, but if i do so, will it be easy to upgrade to official 9.10 afterwards
[01:10] <Izinucs> vlt: k..
[01:10] <lazyshrk> thebitguru: have you tried different resolutions? like 720p?
[01:11] <AndyLincomDev> quit
[01:11] <AndyLincomDev> leave
[01:11] <AndyLincomDev> how do i get out of here?
[01:11] <matreya6> soldats, you can include me on the list of screen enthousiasts ;-)
[01:11] <ylynfatt> put a / infront of quit
[01:11] <lazyshrk> add a / before quit
[01:11] <YBH_1> where can I download ubuntu at?
[01:11] <gcrazy> trism Nope :) I can't get back to console with startx
[01:11] <AndyLincomDev> oh ok
[01:11] <Izinucs> YBH_1: www.ubuntu.com
[01:11] <trism> gcrazy: then gdm probably isn't your problem
[01:11] <Izinucs> DOH!
[01:11] <YBH_1> thanks
[01:11] <thebitguru> lazyshrk: the in1080i used to work with previous xservers, but I haven't used this over the past few months (mayeb even a year) and something changed at that time.
[01:11] <gcrazy> is it maybe xfce that's causing all the hype?, because when i issue startx it goes straight into xfce
[01:11] <Izinucs> YBH_1: np
[01:12] <josh_moore> Need help getting correct resolution set for display, ubuntu 9.04 gtx 260, nvidia driver version 180 is enabled, highest res that shows is 1360x768 my monitor runs at 1920x1200
[01:12] <soldats> matreya6: sweet will do, btw have you ever looked in to "dvtm"
[01:12] <daveycal> anyone know if an upgrade from rc to the final 9.10 will be painless?  I was hoping to get out in front of the torrent crush
[01:12] <Izinucs> daveycal: typically if you just continue your updates you'll be there.
[01:12] <lazyshrk> thebitguru: you could try #xorg
[01:12] <erUSUL> !final
[01:12] <vlt> Izinucs: Ok, ssh'd to the machine.
[01:12] <daveycal> ok thanks
[01:13] <Izinucs> vlt: good.. cd to the desktop
[01:13] <daveycal> oh wait... so then is it an update to go from rc to final, or an upgrade
[01:13] <Izinucs> vlt: now sudo chmod +x NVI<TAB>

[01:22] <vlt> Izinucs: Download completed. Now `tar -xf`ing it
[01:23] <dalton2345> can u use amarok on gnome?

[01:24] <mQQsh> hey.. im trying to install a theme I got from gnome-look.  In the main theme directory there are the following folders: gtk-2.0, metacity-1, inex.theme Mirav2.emerald... if go to into the appearance preferences and click intsall which folder do I install to get the theme added?
[01:24] <spaceBARbarian> hey do the 64bit(AMD) releases also apply for intel 64 bit processors ?
[01:24] <aj_444> ixian_: Default, Help, and oem=OEM install (for manufacturers)
[01:24] <vlt> Izinucs: No, _I_ was untaring it because the .run couldn't find the source. It actually can't now either. Do I need a symlink somewhere?
[01:24] <ZykoticK9> spaceBARbarian, yes
[01:25] <lazyshrk> mQQsh: try selecting the file you downloaded
[01:25] <Izinucs> vlt: what did you download again?
[01:25] <ixian_> aj_444 if you select Default and press ENTER does anything happen? it just reboots?
[01:25] <aj_444> ixian_: When I select default, the timer on the bottom of the screen restarts.
[01:26] <vlt> Izinucs: `aptitude install linux-source` put a tar.bz2 in /usr/src, I untar'd it. Now there's a directory "linux-source-2.6.28"
[01:26] <bazhang> mQQsh, you downloaded a tar.gz?

[01:26] <symptom> hello, Can anyone point me to a good tutorial on how to write your own drivers for linux
[01:26] <Izinucs> vlt: probably the linux-headers for the kernel you're running
[01:26] <mQQsh> bazhang: the main folder is named Mira_by_sen7.tar
[01:26] <vlt> Izinucs: headers are installe dtoo
[01:26] <erUSUL> mQQsh: most themes are installed by simply dragging the tar.gz on top the system>Pereferences>appearance window
[01:27] <Izinucs> vlt: what's the installer asking for?  if need be stop it and restart
[01:27] <erUSUL> symptom: download the LDD3 book ( Linux device drivers 3 )
[01:27] <Omen20> hi i have a karmic question pertaining to the add-apt-repository command
[01:27] <bazhang> mQQsh, what happens when you drag the whole thing over themes manager
[01:27] <lazyshrk> symptom: Greg Kroah-Hartman had a talk about it, there is a video somewhere
[01:27] <ixian_> aj_444, im' not sure what the problem is then... i have used unetbootin before, all i had to do was select Default and hit enter and it would load
[01:27] <matreya6> Does anyone know if the flash-support for 64bit has improved in Karmic?
[01:27] <lazyshrk> symptom: 1 hour or so, where he goes through examples

[01:28] <bazhang> matreya6, discuss in #ubuntu+1 (karmic)
[01:28] <aj_444> ixian_: I too have used it, and have never had this problem. Could it be the flash drive itself and not the program?
[01:28] <Omen20> can it only be used for launchpad PPAs?
[01:28] <vlt> Izinucs: Oh sorry, the installed headers are for 2.6.28-16 while I'm running -13 now (due to manual menu.lst I think) will reboot ..

[01:28] <bazhang> mQQsh, got the link?
[01:29] <Izinucs> vlt: k
[01:29] <matelot> matreya6  can delete the folders ?
[01:29] <matreya6> mzawieska, try interpreting the beeps you get at startup, they sound like BIOS-beeps to me
[01:29] <mzawieska> any1 have any ideas?
[01:29] <symptom> thank you erUSUL and lazyshrk
[01:29] <mQQsh> bazhang: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Mira?content=89831

[01:30] <ixian_> aj_444, on the root of your flash drive, open up syslinux.cfg in a text editor and find the group with "label Default" (should be near the top), what are the last 2 lines of that group? should start with kernel and append
[01:30] <mQQsh> bazhang: ok.. thanks a lot for trying to help
[01:30] <carbm1_> gcrazy, nano
[01:30] <ctmjr> gcrazy: try nano
[01:30] <Silicium01> gcrazy, nano
[01:30] <paralelo> soldats: you are mistaken about that
[01:30] <mzawieska> you think the problem is in bios?
[01:31] <matelot> matreya6, I mean delete those folders under this: "purple/logs/irc/matelot@irc.ubuntu.com"
[01:31] <matelot> opp
[01:31] <matreya6> mzawieska, try to lookup the beep pattern in the manual that came with your computer/ motherboard
[01:31] <erUSUL> gcrazy: nano
[01:31] <vlt> omg ... Maybe _that_ is why it doesn't work.

[01:31] <SuspectZero> -_-
[01:31] <mzawieska> i dont have it
[01:31] <matreya6> matelot, yes, that should work just fine
[01:32] <Izinucs> vlt: I'd continue with the install now.. probably wouldn't have made a diff using aptitude and the repo's anyway.. but.. you never know.

[01:32] <aj_444> ixian_: theres kernel, append, and then splash--
[01:33] <miamimike> Hi, how can I add launcher scripts to the system pop-up menu in Gnome desktop?  Thank you
[01:33] <matreya6> mzawieska, It sounds like you are having some BIOS problems, yes, maybe even a unstable electrical connection somewhere on your motherboard, which would explain why it works after the 10 minutes when it is properly heated up
[01:33] <ixian_> aj_444 can you paste the last 2 lines? the ones beginning with kernel and append
[01:34] <aj_444> ixian_: kernel /ubnkern           append initrd=/ubninit file=/cdrom/preseed/moblin-remix.seed boot=casper quiet

[01:35] <ixian_> aj_444 i don't really see anything wrong with it... hmm
[01:35] <aj_444> ixian_: is there a program similar to unetbootin that I could use?
[01:35] <mobodo> say that my headless server has frozen and I had to force it to reboot, where could I look (which log file) to find out what went wrong just before it died?
[01:36] <paralelo> you are wrong
[01:36] <ixian_> aj_444 i dont have ubuntu on my flash drive atm, i have linux mint, looks similiar just the file names aare different
[01:36] <Izinucs> vlt: I'll be switching to my lappy.. nick there is Scunizi.. Izinucs is backwards for Scunizi :)
[01:36] <ixian_> aj_444 i believe you can install ubuntu on your flash drive from within ubuntu... so if you can boot onto the CD on some computer, you could do it that way
[01:37] <ixian_> !usb | aj_444

[01:51] <Jeruvy> sarthor: its not something I have much exposure to.  I'd avoid that method, but maybe someone else can advise.

[01:58] <FloodBot1> NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now.
[01:58] <dogon> Billiard: one sec, let me copy it
[01:58] <mojo_o> floodbot does more flooding than anyone else :p
[01:58] <mo0nykit> dooglus: i've just browsed around. Skype for Linux is only beta?
[01:58] <kunji> losha: I don't think so, I also tried a newly burned one right before that.  I'm thinking more along the lines of cd-drive problems or overheating issues or broken graphics memory?
[01:58] <TuTUXG> mo0nykit, there's a beta version, also a stable one
[01:58] <vlt> mojo_o: That's why he's called FloodBot
[01:58] <dogon> Billiard: The error is "bash: ./referee: cannot execute binary file"
[01:58] <mojo_o> vlt, lol
[01:58] <syam1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/300909/
[01:59] <TuTUXG> mo0nykit, 2.0 is stable
[01:59] <mo0nykit> TuTUXG: where do I get a stable one? from medibuntu?
[01:59] <syam1> Jordan_U I have opened a separate window to communicate with you.
[01:59] <dogon> Billiard: But it is an executable file, I can see it in the file type when I look at the file
[01:59] <syam1> And see the resulted kernals in the pasted link above.
[01:59] <vlt> dogon: Maybe it doesn't match your kernel?
[01:59] <dogon> Billiard: And the instructions by the teacher clearly say it's a unix executable
[01:59] <mo0nykit> dogon: have you set executable permissions? (chmod)
[01:00] <TuTUXG> the beta one works fine here, but yea you can try medibuntu, mo0nykit
[01:00] <syam1> I think I'm back to square one.
[01:00] <vlt> dogon: Is it an ELF file?
[01:00] <mQQsh> Hey.. what can I enter in my Conky script to get it to align on the right side of my screen?
[01:00] <Jordan_U> !msg | syam1
[01:00] <losha> kunji: all possibilities I suppose. How do you plan to narrow them down?
[01:00] <dogon> mo0nykit: yes, I have RWX permissions
[01:00] <mo0nykit> TuTUXG: thanks, i have just finished updating to medibuntu repos
[01:00] <snuffy47> I could use some help tring to get samba to work for me
[01:00] <syam1> Sure,
[01:01] <Jordan_U> syam1: Try running "apt-get install linux-generic"
[01:01] <TuTUXG> mo0nykit, actually the beta one seems works better with a/v conferences
[01:01] <dogon> vlt: I don't know if it's an ELF file... it was in a tar, when I extracted it into the directory the file type is just listed as "executable"
[01:02] <syam1> Did it.http://paste.ubuntu.com/300911/
[01:02] <Billiard> dogon try the file command
[01:02] <vlt> dogon: hmmm ... What does `file referee` say?
[01:02] <syam1> ubottu, Thank you for the advise. Will do the same.
[01:03] <mo0nykit> TuTUXG: oh, haha! to beta or not to beta? hehe.. it's my sister who wants to use it, and she's the type who calls the resident tech support (me) when problems crop up :P
[01:03] <islinuxacult> losha that dont werk
[01:03] <Jordan_U> syam1: Did you delete any files from /boot/ ?
[01:03] <losha> islinuxacult: maybe it's your spelling (or your grammar)...
[01:04] <snuffy47> having problems writing files to a samba share any help
[01:04] <islinuxacult> could anyone tell me how to launch xchat when I click on a irc:// link in firefox?
[01:04] <robin__> I am trying to change my password but it will not let me use less than 6 characters even though I have set it to a single character before
[01:04] <dogon> Billiard: vlt: The file command says "ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.4, not stripped"
[01:04] <TuTUXG> mo0nykit, let's say i have used it since karmic alpha 4, now it's rc and it never has problems, i mean, once you set it up right
[01:04] <vlt> dogon: What does `uname -a` say?
[01:05] <syam1> I think no. All I did is that limited the no. Of kernels in the startup manager options to '0'. So that I thought it would not show the list of several different kernels each time I startup.
[01:05] <vlt> dogon: Maybe you're running an x86 kernel
[01:05] <TuTUXG> mo0nykit, by "it" i refer to skype 2.1 beta
[01:05] <superbir1> Hey, wheres my cpanel if I am hosting my own website please.
[01:05] <PacketCollision> robin__: try doing it with sudo "sudo passwd USERNAME"
[01:05] <losha> robin__: that's because a single character password is a terrible idea...
[01:05] <syam1> And the default kernal was selected to be a memory test, which became fatal to me now.
[01:05] <PacketCollision> but like losha said, don't do it
[01:05] <dogon> vlt: I'm pretty sure I'm running an x86 carnel...
[01:05] <robin__> losha: but then I have to type twelve characters when trying to change settings :P
[01:05] <mo0nykit> TuTUXG: if you say the beta has a/v conferences, and i presume that might be the only major difference, i think i'll get the one from the medibuntu repos
[01:06] <bazhang> islinuxacult, go to ff preferences --applications and select there
[01:06] <losha> robin__: your poor fingers must be worn to the bone...
[01:06] <syam1> I do installed the testdisk.
[01:06] <syam1> and created a new partition list.
[01:06] <vlt> dogon: If it's x86 32bit it probably won't work.
[01:06] <robin__> thanks PacketCollision
[01:06] <PacketCollision> Isn't it possible to cache the gksu password or something? I thought it used to be
[01:06] <syam1> even that did not work.
[01:06] <jason____> superbir1, did you install cpanel?
[01:07] <Jordan_U> syam1: Can you pastebin the output of "ls /boot/" ?
[01:07] <dogon> vlt: that's a pretty retarded teacher I have... I assume he gave me a 64 bit executable?
[01:07] <losha> PacketCollision: sudo usually caches the password for a couple of minutes...
[01:07] <Billiard> dogon: maybe you are supposed to use this file on machines at school which are running x86-64?
[01:07] <vlt> dogon: That's what `file` says, yes. The 64 bit part, I mean
[01:08] <syam1> Fine. Here it goes.
[01:08] <syam1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/300915/
[01:08] <vlt> dogon: `grep lm /proc/cpuinfo`
[01:08] <dogon> Billiard: vlt: well, we do have a couple of 64 bit linux machines at school...
[01:09] <syam1> Was it helpful?
[01:09] <Jordan_U> syam1: Ok, try running "mv /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst-bak && update-grub"
[01:09] <islinuxacult> bazhang: still dont werk
[01:09] <syam1> on my way.
[01:09] <bazhang> islinuxacult, what did you set it to
[01:09] <islinuxacult> xchat
[01:09] <Billiard> dogon: that must be what the teacher expects you to use it on, i dont think he would assume you have a 64 bit machine at home, my teachers dont assume we even have a computer at home
[01:10] <superbir1> How do I run cpanel and what is the actual file name please
[01:10]  * vlt 's clock just jumped from 02:59 to 02:00 ... heh
[01:10] <bazhang> islinuxacult, no idea then
[01:10] <andril> anyone running 9.10
[01:10] <syam1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/300917/
[01:10] <bazhang> andril, karmic in #ubuntu+1
[01:10] <islinuxacult> this really pees me off because it was working just fine until i updated pidgin with new repositories
[01:10] <dogon> Billiard: I just downloaded a virtual machine, installed ubuntu and I was thinking that I will have no problems running the executables
[01:11] <Jordan_U> syam1: You should be able to boot now :)
[01:11] <syam1> Should I give it a try?
[01:11] <andril> thaks bazhang
[01:11] <andril> *thanks
[01:11] <dogon> Billiard: but thanks for the help :)... I'm pissed off at my teacher AGAIN, but at least I know what's going on
[01:11] <Billiard> dogon: you would need a 64bit machine and a 64bit guest os installed, then it would work
[01:11] <jason____> superbir1, well, did you install cpanel?
[01:11] <snuffy47> anyhelp with this samba :)
[01:11] <Accidus> When trying to setup sound and video in skype, I deleted the /tmp/pulseaudio-* directories. Ever since sound has stopped on my machine. I've tried various troubleshooting (like  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting ) my ALSA information is on ( http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=8d2c9888d9036c89745ebc6dfd9aad1c8d472a34 ).
[01:11] <vlt> dogon: Can you run a virtual 64bit machine on a 32bit kernel?
[01:12] <Jordan_U> syam1: Yes, and please file a bug report against the tool that allowed you to set the number of kernel entries to zero without warning you
[01:12] <Accidus> Can anyone point me at further troubleshooting procedures or perhaps suggest what could be the solution?
[01:12] <dogon> Billiard: vlt: My OS and computer are 64 bit, I guess I'll have to install the 64 bit VM and get the 64 bit ubuntu
[01:12] <syam1> Ok. I will see the results. Thank you for your help and patience. Have a great day ahead.
[01:12] <uvacav> does anyone know if it is trivial to upgrade from karmic release candidate to karmic final release?
[01:12] <Billiard> dogon: yeah then it should work
[01:13] <bazhang> uvacav, yep fairly so
[01:13] <vlt> dogon: I thought you said your OS was 32bit ...
[01:13] <Jordan_U> !beta | uvacav
[01:13] <heogen> hi there,
[01:13] <dogon> Billiard: vlt: or I could just install the stupid ssh client and remote into the school computer every time I want to run the program
[01:13] <PacketCollision> uvacav: it is just like the daily updating you should be doing if you're using karmic
[01:13] <heogen> how can restore la color of a movie, what program can I use?
[01:13] <uvacav> thanks all
[01:13] <Kirsch> hey guys, does rc.local stop system boot until its done? or does it just kick it off as a separate thread and i can run whatever?
[01:13] <islinuxacult> what's the command to search for everything that matches something?
[01:13] <dogon> vlt: yes, ubuntu is 32 bit, but I'm running it on a VM
[01:13] <mizipzor> how do i check which driver my NIC is using?
[01:13] <uvacav> dont feel like waiting :)
[01:14] <Kirsch> mizipzor: lsmod
[01:14] <mead> what is the word about running the lastest release (not beta or release canidate) of ubuntu on the new intel 1156 socket cpu's and mobos?
[01:14] <heogen> someone can say me, what is the best program for restore the movie's color?
[01:14] <dogon> vlt: I didn't want to say the W or the V word, but I'll say it... I'm running a 64 bit Windows Vista and I have a Sun VirtualBox for ubuntu
[01:14] <nevets04> does freebsd use the linux kernal?
[01:14] <rww> nevets04: no
[01:15] <mead> bsd is another animal
[01:15] <TuTUXG> lol
[01:15] <nevets04> So its not considered a linux distro?
[01:15] <rww> nevets04: nope
[01:15] <bazhang> nevets04, correct
[01:15] <superbir1> sdf
[01:15] <TuTUXG> no
[01:15] <mizipzor> Kirsch: hm... i cant see anything related to my network there
[01:15] <MasterBob> i'm sorry, does anyone know an irc channel i can use to get to support for setting up a pastebin subdirectory on my website? i asked in #ubuntu-offtopic and got no reply
[01:15] <nevets04> Is it acciated with unix at all?
[01:15] <superbir1> cpanel help please
[01:15] <superbir1> kladfl
[01:16] <rww> nevets04: FreeBSD is a UNIX, yes.
[01:16] <TuTUXG> nevets04, it related more to unix than linux afaik
[01:16] <bazhang> nevets04, that is outside the scope of this channel please ask in #ubuntu-offtopic or elsewhere
[01:16] <Kirsch> mizipzor: thats a list of all the drivers that are loaded, by process of elimination and lspci, you can probably figure out what you have
[01:16] <nevets04> bazhang, sory, ill stop
[01:16] <heogen> someone can say me, what is the best program for restore the movie's color?
[01:16] <Kirsch> mizipzor: beyond that, i don't think i can help, maybe someone else can
[01:16] <islinuxacult> what's the command to search for everything that matches something?
[01:16] <mizipzor> Kirsch: ok thanks
[01:16] <Kirsch> does anyone know if rc.local will force the system to not fully boat until its done loading?
[01:16] <dogon>  Billiard: vlt: yah, I think I'll just skip the whole VM thing and get the SSH client... I spent 3 hours downloading and installing junk today
[01:16] <mead> one of the reasons linux was created to get around licensing issues with Unix
[01:16] <TuTUXG> islinuxacult, locate?
[01:16] <bazhang> islinuxacult, apt-cache search package
[01:16] <analyser> islinuxacult: man find
[01:17] <mzawieska> any1 recommand good php tutorial?
[01:17] <heogen> I have a movie it look dark, what program can I use for it?
[01:17] <mzawieska> for newbies
[01:17] <mzawieska> cause i am about to install LAMP
[01:17] <dogon> Billiard: vlt: anyway, thanks for all your help! I really appreciate it!
[01:17] <heogen> Somebody know?
[01:17] <bazhang> heogen, please dont repeat so quickly
[01:17] <Billiard> dogon: np
[01:17] <mead> so what is the word about running the latest release of ubuntu on a p55 mobo?
[01:17] <nevets04> mzawieska, sec ill link you to a tut
[01:17] <vlt> mizipzor: `find /sys -wholename "*eth"` then `find /sys -wholename "*<PCI:ID>*" | grep driver` works for me (maybe there's an easier way ;-)
[01:18] <snuffy47> anyone have some time to spend helping me with my samba shares access
[01:18] <superbir1> I'll wait for the pause
[01:18] <jason____> superbir1, well, did you install cpanel?
[01:18] <src04c> snuffy what are you using to host the shares?  BSD
[01:18] <mizipzor> vlt: i got that the "then" command wasnt found :p
[01:19] <heogen> bazhang, do you say me a program for the light of the movie?
[01:19] <snuffy47> ubuntu jaunty server
[01:19] <Malcolm_980> hey i have a 64 bit ubuntu with 1.5gig ram
[01:19] <superbir1> I don't know.  How do you install it?
[01:19] <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?
[01:19] <Malcolm_980> but its faster than 32 bit?
[01:19] <good> erro 22 on grub what is
[01:20] <vlt> mizipzor: these are two commands. And you have to edit the second one. Using "*eth*" in the first cmd is better
[01:20] <superbir1> I can find a bunch of cpanel files but don't know which one to install or open.  sorry for being so blond
[01:20] <snuffy47> src04c if you have a few mins can you pm me
[01:20] <mo0nykit> what kernel module supports the microphone? I've been compiling a custom kernel, and I'd like to know if my OS is able to access my microphone
[01:21] <Malcolm_980> why is 64 faster than 32 bit on my computer with only 1.5 gigs of ram
[01:21] <vlt> Malcolm_980: Depends on the application. Some database apps or aes for example benefit from 64bit, others don't
[01:21] <Malcolm_980> oh
[01:21] <src04c> snuffy are they something that you COULD connect to at one point or are you just setting this up
[01:21] <Malcolm_980> but every thing is better?
[01:21] <src04c> your shares
[01:22] <vlt> Malcolm_980: So what are you complaining about? ;-)
[01:22] <MaquinaX> hey guys, how do you do that reply thing on IRC, so that somebody knows you are talking to them...
[01:22] <Malcolm_980> lol i donk know
[01:22] <snuffy47> this is a fresh install but I can see the files on my ubuntu desktop and XP computer it will not allow me to write to the folders
[01:22] <Malcolm_980> I just wanted to know why
[01:22] <PacketCollision> MaquinaX: just type the first few letters of their name and hit tab
[01:23] <snuffy47> went through permissions but I am completly lost now
[01:23] <MaquinaX> PacketCollision, thanx
[01:23] <PacketCollision> np
[01:23] <snuffy47> was hoping to run through some of the errors with somone
[01:24] <src04c> ssh into the jaunty server and change the share file parent folder permissions
[01:24] <superbir1> how do you install cpanel?
[01:24] <gizmov> what contry serve is this??
[01:24] <PacketCollision> superbir1: did you try searching for it in apt?
[01:25] <snuffy47> using terminal
[01:25] <gizmov> is anyone who can tell me??
[01:25] <gizmov> wonder what country server is this
[01:25] <IdleOne> !pl  | gizmov
[01:25] <src04c> thats how i would do it. login as root.
[01:25] <superbir1> I searched for cpanel in my files and came up with a bunch of different ones.  I don't know how to install it as I am hosting my own website.
[01:25] <PacketCollision> superbir1: oh, I was thinking of webmin.
[01:26] <bazhang> http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/20949/ superbir1
[01:26] <snuffy47> okay I need to know the command lines required
[01:26] <PacketCollision> I think cpanel licenses come with support.  Why don't you ask http://www.cpanel.net/
[01:26] <snuffy47> logged in
[01:26] <gizmov> can anyone hear me?
[01:26] <bazhang> gizmov, yes
[01:27] <gizmov> or see me sounds better
[01:27] <gizmov> :]
[01:27] <superbir1> Thanks Packet, I'll check out the link
[01:27] <bazhang> gizmov, did you have an ubuntu support question
[01:27] <gizmov> bazhang i have never been here before i used to have mirc long time ago on polish servers
[01:27] <gizmov> and they are all k-lined
[01:28] <gizmov> don`t know why
[01:28] <gizmov> :/
[01:28] <KinG`PiN> Hello
[01:28] <bazhang> gizmov, here is ubuntu support; random chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:28] <gizmov> wonder what server is this one
[01:28] <KinG`PiN> WHy can't i play zynga poker on facebook from ubuntu, is there any solution?
[01:28] <snuffy47> I hae my shares in the /mnt folder
[01:28] <PacketCollision> gizmov: you're on irc.freenode.net
[01:29] <PacketCollision> Although I would hope you know that already
[01:29] <src04c> cd to your shares
[01:29] <nightshade> ok, so I was wondering if there was any such thing as a vga-to-network adaptor, so you can watch your computer from bootup through the network.
[01:29] <snuffy47> okay
[01:29] <nightshade> is there?
[01:29] <gizmov> ok got it:]
[01:29] <gizmov> thanks for your help :]
[01:29] <KinG`PiN> does anyone have a solution how can i get poker working on facebook?
[01:29] <PacketCollision> nightshade, yes, there is.  It's called an IP-KVM
[01:30] <nightshade> thanks
[01:30] <cameron> King'Pin, what do you mean?
[01:30] <PacketCollision> Or alternately a Remote Access Card
[01:30] <snuffy47> cd /mnt/md0-sda-sdb-1000.2GB-RAID1 there
[01:30] <cameron> Like writing a poker app for fb?
[01:30] <KinG`PiN> No no, playing poker, texas holdem on facebook
[01:30] <src04c> run shit command
[01:30] <KinG`PiN> it requires shockwave player
[01:30] <src04c> this*
[01:30] <src04c> chmod a+rwx /path/to/folder
[01:30] <snuffy47> at the root of my shares
[01:30] <cameron> KinG`PiN, flash doesn't work?
[01:30] <symptom> !topic
[01:31] <KinG`PiN> NO cameron , tried.
[01:31] <KinG`PiN> mind the caps ;p
[01:31] <islinuxacult> could anyone tell me how to trigger xchat from firefox Please!?
[01:31] <cameron> KinG`PiN, then there's prob ably very, very, VERY little chance you'll ever be able to play it in Ubuntu... sory.
[01:31] <kunji> So I checked and even booting from a live cd is super slow, even the text that would normally fly by too quickly to read.
[01:31] <src04c> yes, the path/to/folder is the folder that you want to cahnge the permissions so a non-root user can write to it
[01:31] <MonkeySilent> does editing defconfig give me support for a certain module if done correctly? I am getting Unknown symbols when i try a insmod of a module i have compiled
[01:31] <KinG`PiN> alright
[01:31] <cameron> KinG`PiN, Adobe is the biggest pain in the butt.
[01:32] <heogen> how edit the light in the movie in linux?
[01:32] <islinuxacult> i like the irc:// linking capabilities
[01:32] <KinG`PiN> Word, cameron . :)
[01:32] <cameron> :)
[01:32] <src04c> the susquent folders in the hierarchy should follow suit with those permissions
[01:32] <nightshade> I just looked that up, and I think I already have one.  How do you use that?  (looking with another computer
[01:32] <nightshade> )
[01:32] <PacketCollision> islinuxacult: try in Firefox->Edit->Preferences->Applications
[01:32] <snuffy47> cd /mnt/md0-sda-sdb-1000.2GB-RAID1$ chmod a+rwx /mnt/md0-sda-sdb-1000.2GB-RAID1
[01:32] <heogen> ?????
[01:32] <islinuxacult> PacketCollision: dont werk
[01:32] <snuffy47> would be what i want
[01:32] <cameron> King`pin, have you tried pokerth in the repos?
[01:33] <ctmjr> heogen: you control the brightness with the app that is playing the movie
[01:33] <cameron> It's a pretty good Texas holdem poker game, well made.
[01:33] <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?
[01:33] <PacketCollision> islinuxacult: http://forum.xchat.org/viewtopic.php?p=584 doesn't look possible currently
[01:33] <snuffy47> it told me operation not permitted
[01:33] <nightshade> heogen: I got it when uncle sam was thowing his old stuff out (I live near a military base)
[01:33] <KinG`PiN> cameron , no i haven't... but I prefer facebook's .. since i got tons of chips there ;p
[01:33] <heogen> ctmjr, but I want to save the change for to burn it in a dvd
[01:33] <src04c> yes, but once you cd to the folder all you need is chmod a+rwx /md0-sda-sdb-1000.2GB-RAID1

[01:34] <symptom> islinuxacult, irc://freenode.net doesnt work?
[01:34] <cameron> KinG`PiN, you can also ask the devs if they could release a flash version. Better chance than Adobe..
[01:34] <matreya6> Thanks for the help and I hope to have contributed to this channel.
[01:34] <src04c> you dont need the enitre path since you are already at the folder.

[01:34] <KinG`PiN> cameron , good idea.
[01:34] <PacketCollision> ryanakca: raw iptables is pretty hairy unless you know what you're doing, you might look for a frontend to configure it
[01:35] <ryanakca> PacketCollision: *nod*, and if one is stuck on the CLI?
[01:35] <PacketCollision> Well, I use shorewall whenever I need to do routing, but it's nearly as complex as iptables itself

[01:43] <symptom> islinuxacult, try out empathy.  That is going to be the default in Karmic.  Pidgin is going the way of gaim.
[01:43] <uvacav> mocs: you can run the class by running 'java program', do you need a jar?
[01:43] <cameron> Mocs, might check  the java channel?
[01:43] <sarthor_> coz_, i search a lot for configuring pppoe server on linux for my Local area, but never find any helpfull howto for me.
[01:43] <symptom> Mocs, you dont need the jar file
[01:43] <Mocs> uvacav: dunno... do I?  First one, I just noticed there was one in the sample...
[01:44] <Mocs> kk.. lemme try it without :)  brb
[01:44] <symptom> you can use java classname to run the main method in classname
[01:44] <islinuxacult> will empathy replace pidgin?

[01:44] <archman> is it possible to stop pulseaudio from starting up and running under jaunty? same for update-notifier(it's unticked in sessions...)

[01:44] <snuffy47> appreciate the help I think there is something wrong with my raid setup or something

[01:46] <KinG`PiN> ok symptom
[01:47] <zulfi> i need ubuntu tweak
[01:47] <zulfi> anyone
[01:48] <ntsasng> Hi all
[01:48] <coz_> zulfi,   you need the application  "ubuntu tweak" or you want some suggestions on tweaking ubuntu?
[01:48] <symptom> KinG`PiN, islinuxacult there are other articles on that website that have some interesting info for newer linux/ubuntu users
[01:48] <kunji> Hey guys, I was right, hardware issue, they cd drive is flaky, probably the connection rather than the laser, since after getting it in just the right place and not moving it, all is installing well :)
[01:48] <ntsasng> I want upgrade AWN 0.3.9?
[01:48] <ntsasng> how to upgrade
[01:48] <ntsasng> ?
[01:48] <archman> can pulseaudio be disabled in jaunty for good??
[01:48] <zulfi> i just need to install ubuntu tweak thats it
[01:48] <islinuxacult> ive been using ubuntu for longer than a year
[01:49] <coz_> islinuxacult,  cool
[01:49] <Blackbird> How does one raise the volume of one's mic in ubuntu?
[01:49] <PacketCollision> zulfi: did you consider reading the documentation on the ubuntu tweak website?
[01:49] <DigitalKiwi> alsamixer
[01:49] <Blackbird> I really really need to raise it, since I'm broadcasting internet radio
[01:49] <PacketCollision> zulfi: http://ubuntu-tweak.com/downloads
[01:49] <Blackbird> so...
[01:49] <coz_> Blackbird,  you could open a terminal and type in      alsamixer
[01:50] <coz_> Blackbird,  check the volume sliders
[01:50] <KinG`PiN> symptom , going through it.. and i got like half of all those programs installed heh :)
[01:50] <archman> Blackbird, in Volume Control
[01:50] <DigitalKiwi> you probably have to hit tab after typing alsamixer
[01:50] <KinG`PiN> and yeah, ubuntu should really make some stuff about gaming.
[01:50] <Blackbird> Hm. Usually that raises the volume of the mic, making it come out the speakers
[01:50] <DigitalKiwi> to get to the mic screen (probably starts on speaker screen)
[01:50] <Blackbird> without actually changing its potency
[01:50] <mzawieska> still cant figure it out
[01:51] <mzawieska> how to go to good php channel
[01:51] <mzawieska> :/
[01:51] <mzawieska> I am such a noob or its so late LOL

[01:51] <coz_> mzawieska,   where you type here type   /join #php
[01:51] <Blackbird> I'll test.

[01:58] <PacketCollision> islinuxacult: I would try moving your pidgin user folder (probably either ~/.pidgin or .config/pidgin) to an alternate location an see if your profile was messed up
[01:58] <PacketCollision> if that doesn't work, you could always do an "sudo aptitude purge pidgin && sudo aptitude install pidgin"
[01:58] <islinuxacult> PacketCollision: what profile?
[01:58] <PacketCollision> It must have some sort of configs, right?
[01:59]  * PacketCollision hunts around for where pidgin stores its settings
[01:59] <PacketCollision> Oh, I think it's .purple

[02:22] <soreau> k3Rn: Can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log from the failed session?
[02:22] <vlt> k3Rn: `lspci | grep VGA`
[02:22] <Deihmos> what's the best irc client ?
[02:22] <DigitalKiwi> irssi
[02:22] <Deihmos> konversation doesn't seem that good
[02:22] <soreau> sgtmattbaker: See sys>prefs>keyboard
[02:23] <soreau> ! best | Deihmos
[02:23] <Deihmos> i want one that has a list of many servers
[02:23] <The_Journey> how do I get a launcher to have an icon? I've been trying to create a launcher for gvim for my desktop
[02:23] <soreau> ! irc | Deihmos
[02:23] <Deihmos> how about a newsleecher type program? can't find one in the software center
[02:24] <wgrant> The_Journey: Right clickon the launcher, hit Properties, then click on the existing icon.
[02:24] <k3Rn> hm hard to paste the log files here
[02:24] <sgtmattbaker> soreau: I have not seen a way to make custom layouts there
[02:24] <mojo_o> Deihmos, xchat has a good list
[02:24] <k3Rn> what do you think is te problem there?
[02:24] <soreau> Deihmos: xchat and pidgin may be worth looking into
[02:24] <vlt> !paste | k3Rn
[02:24] <evanescent> I can't view any remote video in Ekiga. I've tried to follow their troubleshooting guide to no avail
[02:24] <evanescent> what should I do?
[02:24] <soreau> sgtmattbaker: Hmm.. I could have sworn there was some 'Custom' option in there somewhere
[02:25] <Deihmos> now i need to figure out how to make this thing look good because it is really ugly
[02:25] <evanescent> the option is grayed out in the menu
[02:25] <k3Rn> i meant hard to get the text onto this system i am using now
[02:25] <k3Rn> since the sun system doesn't boot up
[02:25] <Shihab> Deihmos, try pidgin
[02:25] <mojo_o> Deihmos, what you don't like the brown!?!! :p
[02:25] <Deihmos> shit looks ugly
[02:25] <Deihmos> looks dated
[02:26] <Bluey> Deihmos: well sait!
[02:26] <Bluey> said
[02:26] <Shihab> I like brown
[02:26] <vlt> k3Rn: It diesn't boot at all? Can you go on a TTY shell?
[02:26] <sgtmattbaker> soreau: no I dont believe so
[02:26] <soreau> k3Rn: The sun system doesn't boot at all? I thought you said it was going to low graphics mode
[02:26] <k3Rn> i can get a shell yea
[02:26] <franc> When I do 'dpkg --get-selections' it says that all the files are 'deinstall', does anyone know how to change that?
[02:26] <The_Journey> wgrant, I cant find existing icon when I clicked Properties
[02:26] <mojo_o> i believe any version of ubuntu isn't a serious upgrade until it changes colour
[02:26] <Shihab> wait for 10.04
[02:27] <maco> mojo_o: great, cuz its orange now!
[02:27] <Deihmos> i swear i tried ubuntu a few years back and it looked exactly the same
[02:27] <wgrant> The_Journey: The_Journey It's the thing in the top-left of the properties dialog.
[02:27] <mojo_o> maco, lol, bright brown
[02:27] <wgrant> Deihmos: It has changed twice significantly: 6.06 LTS and 9.10.
[02:27] <maco> Deihmos: er, 9.10 has a new icon theme, new gtk theme, and new wallpaper...
[02:27] <Deihmos> i think the last one i tried was every 7.x or 8.x and it looked the same
[02:28] <maco> mojo_o: look, its never going to be not-brown. its the signature color. its branding. if it were blue, itd be fedora. if it were green, itd be suse.
[02:28] <wgrant> maco: New GDM, new usplash...
[02:28] <mzawieska> guys I installed the LAMP
[02:28] <mzawieska> but it wont let me add anything to var/www
[02:28] <maco> wgrant: im a kubuntu user, so i dont find out all the gnomey changes :P
[02:28] <SnakDoc> does ssh have a session time limit ?
[02:28] <mzawieska> its like i dont have permision to that folder
[02:28] <wgrant> maco: Ah. Silly.
[02:28] <jordy240> hi
[02:28] <mojo_o> maco, i'm not so sure
[02:28] <wgrant> SnakDoc: Not unless your firewall imposes one.
[02:28] <maco> wgrant: by the way, can i talk to you in pm?
[02:29] <wgrant> maco: Sure.
[02:29] <n8tuser> mzawieska-> are you root when doing this?
[02:29] <mzawieska> i dont think so
[02:29] <mzawieska> i want to change the permisson
[02:29] <jordy240> does anyone know how to calculate the moving average of a line in oo.o spreadsheet?
[02:29] <n8tuser> SnakDoc-> loot at your ssh client config or servers ssh configs
[02:29] <SnakDoc> wgrant setupa forward for tsocks and it keeps droping ever so often
[02:29] <mzawieska> i want to add pictures and text to that var/www directory

[02:34] <sgtmattbaker> I am trying to make a custom keyboard layout in ubuntu 9.04 and if I go etc/X11/xkb there is only one file in there, base.xml
[02:34]  * mojo_o waves hand infront of webbb821 
[02:34] <Uglybear> Hello, everyone.
[02:34] <mojo_o> there is no question
[02:35] <webbb821> im so confused
[02:35] <webbb821> !anyone |
[02:36] <Shihab> Hi is there an easy way I can contribute to Ubuntu
[02:36] <bazhang> webbb821, did you have a support question
[02:36] <bazhang> !contribute | Shihab
[02:36] <Shihab> Thanks
[02:36] <Uglybear> How do I register my nickname?
[02:36] <bazhang> !register | Uglybear
[02:36] <IndyGunFreak> !register
[02:36] <mzawieska> var/www I can not add anything to that folder
[02:36] <KnifeySpooney> How do I send a test notification to notify-osd? Now my only way to create a popup is to disconnect/reconnect to my wireless connection which is annoying.
[02:37]  * IndyGunFreak glares at bazhang .. ;)
[02:37] <mzawieska> can i change the permisson?
[02:37] <Uglybear> Thanks
[02:37] <bazhang> IndyGunFreak, hi :)
[02:37] <n8tuser> mzawieska-> use sudo to get root permissions
[02:37] <debio264> lol, I love how Jaunty has Eclipse 3.2
[02:38] <debio264> which is at least two years old, if I remember correctly
[02:38] <obiwan_> mzawieska: perms to what?
[02:38] <vlt> mzawieska: It's the folder of user "www-data". You can either write to it as root or create a symlink there pointing to /home/mzawieska/www for example.
[02:38] <mzawieska> var/www
[02:38] <mzawieska> i installed the LAMP
[02:38] <debio264> looks like the developers msnaged to get 3.5 into Karmic though, so I won't complain
[02:38] <debio264> managed*
[02:38] <obiwan_> mzawieska: ok sudo chmod u+w /var/www
[02:38] <mzawieska> and it tells me to save all my code and pic etc
[02:39] <KnifeySpooney> Nevermind, I found that I have to use the command 'notify-send' to send a test notify-osd message.
[02:39] <gdb> That's a pretty foolish solution, IMO.  Allowing just anyone to write there?  Why would you suggest that?
[02:39] <obiwan_> do that mzawieska
[02:39] <gdb> Oh, nevermind.  It's u not o.
[02:39] <gdb> My bad!
[02:39] <sgtmattbaker> I am trying to make a custom keyboard layout in ubuntu 9.04 and if I go etc/X11/xkb there is only one file in there, base.xml
[02:39] <mzawieska> still doesnt work
[02:40] <Deihmos> how can i get rid of that start up selection
[02:40] <gdb> mzawieska: sudo cp -p myfile.html /var/www
[02:40] <obiwan_> what's the message mzawieska ?
[02:40] <gdb> just copy the files there with sudo, or sudo vi myfile.html in that location
[02:40] <belak> Anyone know of a good cd burner that works with m3u playlists?
[02:40] <obiwan_> maybe brasero belak
[02:41] <coz_> belak,  or maybe  gnomebaker
[02:41] <mzawieska> all i want to is
[02:41] <zebra> i am a ubuntu  new user  and don't my Graphics Drivers
[02:41] <zebra> : my Graphics Drivers is ATI Mobility Radeon X1300
[02:41] <mzawieska> to when i go to that file
[02:41] <mzawieska>  /var/www
[02:41] <belak> coz_: thanks. I'll try those
[02:41] <mzawieska> i want to put there picture or text
[02:41] <mzawieska> but it wont let me
[02:41] <mojo_o> !ati zebra
[02:42] <mzawieska> not thru terminal
[02:42] <Deihmos> is there a way to stop asking for password when installing? this is worse than vista uac
[02:42] <mojo_o> !ati | zebra
[02:42] <zebra> Thanks
[02:42] <Billiard> Deihmos: there is a way, yes
[02:42] <carbm2> ok, I can replicate that if you install with Wubi after you update grub is broken. Windows can no longer boot automatically. It basically overwrites the MBR. Anybody else experienced this?
[02:43] <gdb> mzawieska: preface every command you run there with the word "sudo"
[02:43] <schmukkk> packages.ubuntu.com is down
[02:43] <Deihmos> where is the setting?
[02:43] <gdb> mzawieska: anything you would do anywhere else without sudo "cp" "vi" "mv" etc, use "sudo cp" "sudo vi" and "sudo mv" when working in /var/www
[02:43] <webbb821> what version would a firefox daily build be 3.6?
[02:43] <Uglybear> I dont understand how to register my nick.
[02:43] <soreau> schmukkk: It always goes down then comes back up later
[02:43] <Uglybear> I use the command "/msg nickserv register <your-password> <your-email>"
[02:44] <soreau> schmukkk: You can use the apt tools though to get info you need
[02:44] <gdb> Uglybear: /msg nickserv register <password> <email>
[02:44] <Uglybear> But it says that any email I use is invalid.
[02:44] <ctmjr> mzawieska: gksu nautilus and put what you want in there
[02:44] <bazhang> Uglybear, please ask in #freenode
[02:44] <Uglybear> Alright
[02:44] <Billiard> Deihmos: one sec, gotta find the correct syntax
[02:45] <sanjay> hello gud morning every body
[02:45] <vlt> Uglybear: And please don't really use my password and my email ;-)

[02:46] <Deihmos> can't get flash installed.
[02:46] <mojo_o> sanjay, look into the mono project
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> aj_444, use gparted to format it
[02:48] <aj_444> IndyGunFreak: I'll try that.
[02:48] <IndyGunFreak> aj_444, should work fine, its probably corrupt for some reason
[02:48] <sanjay> mojo o . my dear friend , thank u so much
[02:49] <KnifeySpooney> how do I use the terminal to search through a group of files for a certain word inside the contents of the file?

[03:00] <stinky> hi everyone, my blind friend asked me to install Ubuntu 9.04 for him, and i can not seem to find any TTS system to read the screen to him. after a quick google all i can see is KDE applications for TTS. Dose Gnome have some sort of TTS system I can use? TIA :)
[03:01] <Sirisian> I'm having problems finding the source code for the system call getpid(). I notice it's mentioned in /usr/include/sys and other directories in the include, but I can't seem to find the actual kernel code.

[03:01] <stinky> I will try that thanks cowbud
[03:01] <cowbud> stinky: http://live.gnome.org/Orca

[03:19] <subone> Ok, I have what I believe will probably be an easy question. I have added pictures to folders using nautilus (right click folder, click the icon to set to custom icon) so that when i go in my "/media/FreeAgent Drive/Videos/Series" i can see logos for each series. I also have a link in my home folder "/home/subone/Series" which points to the former. However, when I go there through the link, the folders are back to normal folders without the p
[03:19] <subone> ics. Do I have to manually set this picture association with the folders for every link to there?
[03:19] <maco> subone: probably, yeah
[03:20] <subone> anyone have any answer more like not a bunch of work? :-/
[03:20] <subone> just because this will probably happen to me alot with my links

[03:41] <heeroguy> ps ax | grep gksudo or | grep sh gives nothing relevant
[03:42] <ScottG> What happens if you have more than 26 disks? (so it goes past sdz)
[03:42] <wiretapped> Jordan_U: yeah, but the guy these computers are for leaves for the airport in 3 hours
[03:42] <IndyGunFreak> ScottG, ?..lol
[03:43] <wiretapped> I will remain idling in this channel for the forseeable future though
[03:43] <kunji> bazhang: does this look like a viable solution: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=826233&highlight=aironet
[03:43] <ScottG> IndyGunFreak: What don't you understand?
[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> ScottG, i understand perfectly.
[03:43] <maneatingracoon> Can someone tell me howto get my broadcom drivers to work? I know its a simple command
[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> i just found it funny
[03:43] <maneatingracoon> I cant remember
[03:43] <ScottG> IndyGunFreak: So whats the answer?
[03:43] <Billiard> ScottG: ive looked it up before and it said some go sdaa, not sure what ubuntu does
[03:44] <ScottG> Billiard: Oh ok that makes sense. I don't use Ubuntu anymore anyways
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> ScottG, i have no idea... maybe sdza, sdzb, etc?
[03:44] <soreau> ! broadcom
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> i'm sure its something logical like that
[03:44] <maneatingracoon> thankyou
[03:44] <bazhang> kunji, looks very promising, I was about to hit the forums and you beat me there
[03:44] <soreau> IndyGunFreak: If that were that case, it would be sdaa sdab sdac
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> soreau, indeed..
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> typo on my part
[03:45] <soreau> brain fart ;)
[03:45] <kunji> bazhang: I had tried something like this before, but I was more of a noob then, though still a noob now I might get this right this time, I'll try this blacklisting out.
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> well, i knew what i meant to type, but it was not forwarded to my fingers properly, so the output was wrong
[03:45] <soreau> IndyGunFreak: Ah :)
[03:46] <ScottG> IndyGunFreak: Nah, I guess after sdz it goes to sdaa, and so on until you get to 256 disks
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> so what happens afer 256disks?
[03:46] <murlidhar> phonon backend plugin could not be loaded ........how to load it ?
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:46] <soreau> ScottG: Then it starts failing? What a rip off lol
[03:47] <heeroguy> is there a way to find out what processes are using what files? say if I had a script running that doesn't show up on ps, I'd like to know how to kill it
[03:47] <soreau> murlidhar: You might need to install some phonon package
[03:47] <maneatingracoon> quick q whats the command for install?
[03:47] <maneatingracoon> just install fwcutter?
[03:47] <maco> maneatingracoon: sudo apt-get install ....
[03:47] <soreau> heeroguy: How would it not show up in ps?
[03:47] <ScottG> soreau: I can't think of am example where a single system would have 256 disks
[03:47] <maneatingracoon> ty
[03:47] <Billiard> heeroguy: you can use lsof to list open files
[03:47] <IndyGunFreak> maneatingracoon, its in the repos.. search it.. i think its apt-get install bfw-cutter
[03:48] <maneatingracoon> thanks
[03:48] <soreau> ScottG: I can't even think of a situation with more than 26 (numLettersInTheEnglishAlphabet)
[03:48] <naz> hi all
[03:48] <basix> What is the difference between the RC and Final Version? Are there going to be significant changes to the core system? Kernel / Modules etc..? If I install the RC, can I upgrade it to the Final Version?
[03:49] <maneatingracoon> hmm didnt work..
[03:49] <soreau> basix: rc = release candidate
[03:49] <Billiard> lol after /dev/sda it goes to /dev/sd{ /dev/sd|  next ascii character
[03:49] <soreau> basix: You should be able to install rc and use upgrades from there
[03:49] <basix> soreau, i know what RC stands for
[03:49] <TinSammich> Anyone know why I have 2 instances of ubuntu when grub loads after bootup? kind of a noob
[03:49] <naz> did any one know why I cant get higher then 1024 resolution on ubuntu
[03:49] <repnop> TinSammich: previous kernel version most likely
[03:50] <soreau> TinSammich: Because you have more than one kernel version installed
[03:50] <kunji> bazhang: the forum doesn't give the full filename of the blacklist file, I have several files in that folder that are blacklists of one sort or another, do they mean blacklist.conf ?
[03:50] <basix> soreau, guess i'm trying to understand if there are going to be any major changes to Ubuntu. I really cant wait for the final to be available :|
[03:50] <soreau> naz: Which graphics card?
[03:50] <soreau> basix: ask in #ubuntu+1
[03:51] <TinSammich> how do multiple kernel versoins happen? though software updates?
[03:51] <basix> soreau, ok..
[03:51] <maco> TinSammich: yes
[03:51] <webbb82> when i used to go into my gmail and hover the mouse over my emails the email my curser was over would get highlighted greyish  but now it doesnt was that somethin java like or flash or what
[03:51] <maco> TinSammich: its often good to keep one old one around in case the current one breaks so you can boot into it
[03:51] <soreau> TinSammich: Yes. It doesn't remove the old version automatically in case by some problem, the new kernel does not work
[03:51] <maco> webbb82: thats just javascript. gmail probably got rid of that feature
[03:52] <hikenboot_> is there a trustable site for ie4linux
[03:52] <lao5> hikenboot_: no
[03:52] <TinSammich> ahh, so when i do an update, it logs the previous version and then after i do another update it logs that version and replaces the old one?
[03:52] <soreau> Wow, there is ie4linux? Why wouuld anyone ever create such a thing ><
[03:52] <kunji> bazhang: I think I need to restart to see if that worked, I'll report back soon.
[03:53] <maco> TinSammich: when you reboot, youll automatically go into the newer one
[03:53] <heeroguy> soreau: it doesn't show up for an unknown reason... I made it/use it to put the processor under load so the display doesn't glitch up (long story that I'm trying to fix), I run it as a shortcut from the launch panel as: gksudo sh /home/whatever/while1.sh
[03:53] <maco> TinSammich: the old ones stay installed in them though so you can revert back if you want
[03:53] <soreau> TinSammich: Not exactly.. also not every upgrade contains a kernel upgrade
[03:53] <naz> soreau: it just says Gateway Display Drivers Version: 6.14.10.3889 on gateway site for my laptop
[03:53] <lstarnes> soreau: web developers on linux sometimes need to test for IE compatibility
[03:53] <soreau> naz: lspci|grep VGA
[03:53] <lstarnes> soreau: or users might need to use IE-only functionality
[03:53] <soreau> lstarnes: Ah. How sad ;)
[03:54] <TinSammich> kk, cause I had my most up to date one kill on me and I am using the previous version
[03:54] <heeroguy> http://paste.ubuntu.com/301025/ and that's the script in question I made to do the job
[03:54] <Ziber> So, I'm dual booting Windows and Ubuntu. Last time I tried to remove the Ubuntu partition, I wasnt able to boot into windows... What did I do wrong?
[03:54] <soreau> TinSammich: That's exactly the reason it keeps the old one installed
[03:54] <tesseract> Thank god for daylight savings..
[03:54] <TinSammich> if I update the previous version I am using now it will it replace the broken one?
[03:54] <boycott_MW2> Ziber did u have windows installed first
[03:54] <soreau> Ziber: You removed the partition with your boot loader on it
[03:55] <Ziber> boycott_MW2: yes...
[03:55] <Ziber> soreau: ?
[03:55] <FeasibilityStudy> Ziber you removed Grub, that's what
[03:55] <maco> TinSammich: itll add it to the list. it doesnt remove the old ones automatically
[03:55] <naz> soreau: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
[03:55] <maco> TinSammich: when you boot itll go to the new one automatically though
[03:55] <FeasibilityStudy> Ziber without a bootloader the BIOS doesn't know what to do
[03:55] <boycott_MW2> ziber are u unable to go into windows now?
[03:55] <maco> TinSammich: but the old one will still be an *option* at boot
[03:55] <soreau> Ziber: When ubuntu is installed, it installs Grub to the MBR. If you remove it, you would have to restore your other os bootloader to the mbr
[03:55] <FeasibilityStudy> Ziber so you have to get your Windows install CD and use it to restore MBR..You can google on how to do that
[03:55] <Ziber> boycott_MW2: currently they're both installed. im on windows atm
[03:55] <Billiard> heeroguy: i think it shows up in ps
[03:55] <dalton2345> karmic still using pulseaudio?
[03:56] <boycott_MW2> so the issue is fixed Ziber
[03:56] <Billiard> dalton2345: yes
[03:56] <maco> !karmic | dalton2345
[03:56] <soreau> naz: Can you pastebin the output of 'xrandr'?
[03:56] <FeasibilityStudy> dalton2345:  I don't think so..
[03:56] <Tiders> Is there any way to somehow get a taskbar onto my second display which is in twinview? (only one X screen"?
[03:56] <Ziber> boycott_MW2: no, i want to remove ubuntu and still be able to use windows.
[03:56] <dalton2345> Billiard: is it easy to disable it
[03:56] <kunji> bazhang: no luck with the blacklisting
[03:56] <TinSammich> so it will still list the broken one after i retry the kernel update?
[03:57] <Billiard> dalton2345: idk dont have karmic or use desktop edition, i would think you can just choose alsa
[03:57] <FeasibilityStudy> Pulseaudio was NOT installed by default for me..I had to apt-get install it
[03:57] <soreau> Ziber: You need to go ask in #windows since you will need to restore that OS's MBR
[03:57] <naz> soreau: sorry I am new in ubuntu I dont undrstand waht you mean "xrandr'
[03:57] <boycott_MW2> Ziber, do you need the extra space?  Because even if you do not use the ubuntu.  It's like having a backup in case windows gets pooched.   Safety thing
[03:57] <FeasibilityStudy> Ziber I have already told you what to do
[03:57] <Ziber> boycott_MW2: Id like the extra space, yes.
[03:57] <Ziber> What is MBR, btw?
[03:57] <agey> hello
[03:57] <FeasibilityStudy> Ziber Master Boot Record
[03:58] <boycott_MW2> Ziber Master Boot Record
[03:58] <Ziber> oh, k...
[03:58] <soreau> naz: Ok, open a terminal (apps>accessories>Terminal) then type xrandr and press enter. It will give you some output. Paste that output to pastebin.com and post the link it gives you back, here
[03:58] <boycott_MW2> Ziber, was Ubuntu not up to your liking?
[03:58] <FeasibilityStudy> Ziber if you uninstall Ubuntu and cannot boot Windoze, just do a google search for "restore Windows MBR"
[03:58] <agey> I get problem in playing midi, anyone can help me?
[03:58] <soreau> Ziber: Yes, why do you want to remove ubuntu anyway?
[03:58] <TinSammich> Oh, I am running windows and linux on seperate partitions so I am prompted by grub on which to boot from
[03:58] <bazhang> kunji, sorry did you see this?
[03:59] <bazhang> !blacklist | kunji
[03:59] <naz> soreau: I did
[03:59] <KushVapors> is there a way to configure gdm thru cli
[03:59] <naz> should copy past you hear
[03:59] <soreau> naz: No
[03:59] <FeasibilityStudy> I am getting errors with Pulse in my /var/log/messages..  Rate limited errors..I cant see what they are, but it's annoying..
[03:59] <boycott_MW2> Ziber, some of us just might be curious as to why you want to get rid of it.  Maybe help us address how it can be improved for people like yourself.
[03:59] <soreau> ! paste | naz
[03:59] <agey> I have install playmidi but can works because no device found
[04:00] <soreau> agey: Does other audio work?
[04:00] <agey> yes, all audio and video format work properly

[04:01] <MenDan1> Will the terminal be able to do to open the Recycle Bin?where it is?
[04:01] <LogicalDash> Can I use Ubuntu's USB Startup Disk Creator to make startup disks for other distros? I want to try out Parted Magic.
[04:01] <TinSammich> Oh, any idea why my laptop dies at 50% battery?
[04:01] <kunji> bazhang: nope I did not, now I call the file my_blacklist? or with my user name like kunji_blacklist?  I can just try both.  Thanks.
[04:01] <Evito> Someone who knows how to get Creative Audigy 4 nonpro working private chat me please?
[04:02] <FeasibilityStudy> Evito: It should work out of box...You might have to adjust mixer settings however
[04:02] <Evito> It does recognize it, i also upped the volumes
[04:02] <Evito> still quite silent sadly heh
[04:02] <soreau> TinSammich: There is some chance the meter is misreporting and the battery is actually much lower than 50%
[04:02] <Billiard> MenDan1: i think it may be located in ~/.Trash
[04:02] <Evito> this is my first hour with ubuntu or any linux for that matter
[04:02] <FeasibilityStudy> Evito: You might have to unmute Digital Output or mute it..You might also have to mute/unmute other switches like ICE9885
[04:03] <TinSammich> soreau: is there a way to correct it?
[04:03] <FeasibilityStudy> Evito: You will just have to mute/unmute mixer settings until it works..
[04:03] <soreau> TinSammich: That is purely a guess. That does not mean this is definitely the case

[04:06] <naz> soreau: this is the link --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/301031/
[04:06] <kunji> bazman: no luck..
[04:07] <TinSammich> cool, loading the previous kernel and trying the update again fixed the problem.
[04:07] <soreau> naz: Yes, I saw the output you posted.. it shows you have two monitors cloned at 1024x768 and I assume you want to configure them some other way

[04:09] <Flannel> tuxster: You'll want to change that password
[04:09] <TinSammich> been doing searches on google and forums and cant find a reason why my computer dies while it still has charge in the battery, any ideas?
[04:10] <jubilem_> hello! anybody out there with Thinkpad X40 & Ubuntu 9.10?
[04:10] <leaf-sheep> tuxster: Is that your global password too for every popular sites out there?
[04:10] <maco> TinSammich: its probably calibrated wrong and telling you there's more battery left than there really is
[04:10] <maco> TinSammich: your bios may have an option to calibrate the battery
[04:10] <Ademan> does 'sudo service gdm stop' no longer put gdm and X down for good? i'm trying to help out a friend and i had him run that, and X went off for a bit, but now it's back... seemingly unprompted
[04:10] <TinSammich> maco: when I switch over to windows i still have 1/4 battery left
[04:11] <soreau> Ademan: Try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:11] <maco> TinSammich: does it shut down to guard against the dead battery or just blip off?
[04:11] <kaptainkranium> When I try to install flashplayer 10 in the package installer, it gives me Error: Wrong architecture 'i386'
[04:12] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Are you using i386 or amd64?
[04:12] <TinSammich> maco: just blip off, no shutdown process
[04:12] <osx5> maco: u around?
[04:12] <osx5> guess she is
[04:13] <kaptainkranium> my computer is amd64, and i'm pretty sure I downloaded the 64 version, but I guess i could have made a mistake. How do i check?
[04:13] <HowDoI> kaptainkranium, Ubuntu always tried to install the 32-bit Flash player with that package even though I was using 64 biy
[04:13] <osx5> maco: when you did your ubuntu min install did you ever mess with icewm?
[04:13] <HowDoI> BIT*
[04:13] <maco> kaptainkranium: "uname -a" see if it says x86_64 in there. if so, its 64bit
[04:13] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: If you don't know your machine, run 'uname -m' -- Let me get you the site.
[04:13] <naz> soreau: yes I do have extrnal monitor i am using oin it too if that waht you mean
[04:13] <maco> kaptainkranium: if it says i686 or something like that, its 32bit
[04:14] <kaptainkranium> where do i type uname-m or uname-a
[04:14] <Deihmos> does ubuntu have a way to shrink volume?

[04:14] <kaptainkranium> digitalkiwi got it
[04:14] <Deihmos> i thought ubuntu didn't support hardware raid 0? i just installed it with no issues
[04:14] <maco> kaptainkranium: applications -> accessories -> terminal
[04:14] <kaptainkranium> thank you

[04:16] <TinSammich> maco: haha, same here. thanks though :)
[04:16] <soreau> naz: You mean you want both 1280x1024? (you have to talk to me here, put my nick in what you say so I can see you easier)
[04:16] <zebra> help me
[04:16] <naz> soreau: somewhere 12800*1024
[04:16] <Ademan> how can you kill X.org and gdm for good in a livecd session? it seems despite my best efforts something keeps restarting gdm (sudo service gdm stop doesn't work, nor does killall -9 gdm, which is probably a bad idea, but i'm out of ideas)

[04:16] <naz> sorry i mean 1280
[04:16] <maco> Ademan: sudo service gdm stop
[04:16] <maco> Ademan: or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:17] <osx5> maco: you didn't answer my question
[04:17] <kaptainkranium> can i get that in the add/remove applications window?
[04:17] <Ademan> maco: i tried sudo service gdm stop, but thanks, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop shouldn't be any different should it?
[04:17] <kaptainkranium> again, this is my first hour with ubuntu, so i am unfamiliar with most of the terminology
[04:17] <Lapinux> under normal circumstances when an app is installed with synaptic should it appear in a menu someplace or do you have to create an entry?
[04:17] <maco> Ademan: no it shouldnt. im just not sure what the first version to include service was ;)
[04:17] <leaf-sheep> !terminal | kaptainkranium
[04:17] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: You will eventually learn that the terminal is your best friend. :)
[04:17] <naz> soreeau: yes
[04:18] <maco> kaptainkranium: no, you cant check that in the add/remove window. thats just for installing software
[04:18] <Ademan> maco: ah, haha, yeah i've got it, but interestingly enough, it doesn't show "stopping service gdm .... [OK]" or whatever it usually does
[04:18] <osx5> news: swine flu is now a national emergency Obama says

[04:18] <leaf-sheep> maco: That is because diamond is her best friend, not the terminal or the dog. :)
[04:18] <TinSammich> is there a key command to just launch terminal?
[04:18] <soreau> naz: Ok, try this in your terminal: xrandr --output VGA --mode1280x1024
[04:19] <mQQsh> how hard is it to install the 3d desktop cube?
[04:19] <soreau> naz: Err.. I meant this: xrandr --output VGA --mode 1280x1024
[04:19] <osx5> Flannel: k
[04:19] <maco> osx5: GAY!
[04:19] <kaptainkranium> okay so what I am doing is putting in code, as opposed to software
[04:19] <kaptainkranium> and i do this via the terminal
[04:19] <osx5> maco: ?
[04:19] <kaptainkranium> correct?
[04:19] <osx5> maco: that's off topic
[04:19] <maco> osx5: oh it didnt work
[04:19] <osx5> maco: btw I'm married now
[04:19] <TinSammich> mQQsh: its pretty easy
[04:19] <DigitalKiwi> lmao
[04:19] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Yes. few commands.  That's it.

Let me know when you're done.
[04:20] <soreau> naz: For the other monitor your highest set mode is 1280x768 so you could do: xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1280x768
[04:20] <TinSammich> mQQsh: run that in terminal, should grab and install what your looking for
[04:20] <soreau> but that would probably be weird depending on the monitor
[04:21] <soreau> and it's native res
[04:21] <mQQsh> TinSammich: awesome.. thanks for the help
[04:21] <TinSammich> mQQsh: then look in system->preferences->and the control pannel will be there
[04:21] <TinSammich> mQQsh: no prob ^^
[04:21] <kaptainkranium> leaf-sheep: Done
[04:21] <osx5> maco: I did a minimal install and am having a fun time with this icewm and learning how to edit source files and what not in the command line
[04:22] <bazhang> osx5, did you have a support question?
[04:22] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Okay, now we open the terminal.  Run "ls -l ~/Desktop"  -- Do you see the libplayer.so file?
[04:22] <osx5> bazhang: ya it wasn't answered earlier
[04:22] <soreau> mQQsh: If you need any help, come to #compiz. Cube is already installed, you just have to enable it. Set Sys>Prefs>Appearance>Visual Effects to Extra then use Ctrl+Alt+Drag to rotate the cube. By default on ubuntu, it has only two viewports however
[04:23] <osx5> I'm trying to figure out how you add more program to the menu file on icewm with it being on a ubuntu min install
[04:23] <naz> soreau: I am getting command not found
[04:23] <osx5> programs*
[04:23] <kaptainkranium> yes
[04:23] <ChesFTC> Hi, I'm having a bizarre problem with apache spewing binary garbage out in the Karmic RC prior to the HTTP OK header
[04:24] <ChesFTC> Has anybody else seen this before?
[04:24] <soreau> naz: Pastebin the failed output
[04:24] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Okay, assuming you're using Firefox, we'll create a new plugins folder in ~/.mozilla -- Run 'mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins'
[04:24] <soreau> naz: You can post it here if it's just one line
[04:24] <mQQsh> TinSammich: alright i got that and enabled it.. is there a hot key  or how do I activate it?
[04:24] <Flannel> ChesFTC: You might try in #ubuntu+1
[04:24] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Then we move the file --> "mv ~/Desktop/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins"
[04:25] <ChesFTC> Flannel: Thanks :)
[04:25] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: And restart the Firefox.  You should get your Flash.
[04:25] <Jester86> ello govna
[04:25] <mikobuntu_> TinSammich:  look at >system >prefs >keyboard-shortcuts>Run a terminal.. and set it to something like home<alt<t
[04:25] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: It's mostly about applying the flash plugin in the right directory. That's it. :)
[04:25] <naz> soreau: this is I am getting: bash: xrand: command not found
[04:25] <soreau> naz: You typoed. The command is actually xrandr, not xrand
[04:26] <kaptainkranium> when i type in the makedirectory command it says no such file or directory
[04:26] <naz> oh sorry
[04:26] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: This command? --> mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins
[04:27] <mikobuntu_> kaptainkranium:  mkdir   is the command fore make directory
[04:27] <kaptainkranium> oh i didn't see the space before the ~
[04:27] <kaptainkranium> alright im assuming it worked since i got no message
[04:28] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Yes. You can copy and paste the commands I gave you earlier.
[04:28] <kaptainkranium> tried that but i cant figure out how to copy things from IRC
[04:29] <chris_lenz123> same
[04:29] <Tniffoc> Hey, my firefox wont't download files. I say "Save File" and then it never downloads and nothing pops up in the "downloads" section of FireFox.
[04:29] <poseidon> I installed the boost-doc package.  How do I find out where the docs are?
[04:29] <kaptainkranium> it just shows a dropdown with  xchat and other menus, in which there is no copy option
[04:29] <Tniffoc> kaptainkranium: Ctrl-C?
[04:29] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Highlight and it'll be copied automatically.
[04:30] <Tniffoc> Hey, my firefox wont't download files. I say "Save File" and then it never downloads and nothing pops up in the "downloads" section of FireFox.
[04:30] <mikobuntu_> kaptainkranium:  highlight (left click and drag) right click and copy ,
[04:30] <kaptainkranium> fantastic. Youtube working. Thank you so much. I have a feeling I'm going to love ubuntu
[04:31] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Great! In case you were not aware, there are a new release coming out in 5 days! :)
[04:31] <soreau> Tniffoc: Try running firefox from your terminal and see if there's any interesting output?
[04:31] <boycott_MW2> kaptainkranium what kind of pc u running it on
[04:31] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: There are Ubuntu releases every 6 months so you'll like it. I think. :)
[04:31] <kaptainkranium> I was! but i figured i didn't want to get the DC if I wasn't familiar with it
[04:31] <kaptainkranium> i have an MSI laptop
[04:31] <kaptainkranium> am 64
[04:31] <Tniffoc> soreau: will try but FF didn't log anything to it's Error Console. Starting in Terminal now
[04:32] <kaptainkranium> ha that's about as much as I know. I'm not as computer savvy as I'd like to be
[04:32] <kaptainkranium> Is it going to be easy to upgrade to Karmic?
[04:32] <boycott_MW2> well you were smart enough to get irc help
[04:32] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Yes. That would be few commands in the terminal or you can check in Software Sources. :)
[04:33] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: Also, more information about upgrading.  Something for you to read about.
[04:33] <leaf-sheep> !upgrade | kaptainkranium
[04:34] <naz> soreau: my screen got black after that comand I think it couldnt display it so restarted my pc
[04:34] <Jester86> ello govnas
[04:34] <Jester86> lol
[04:34] <kaptainkranium> thanks leaf-sheep and ubottu. So now that i've got my effects going, and can surf the internet like on Vista, any recommendations for a program or code to add? Maybe something fun or that I could not do in windows?
[04:34] <Jester86> well I just installed ubuntu on my new acer 6930g
[04:35] <Tiders> When trying to run a Python Script using the GASP imported I get this error... Could anyone help?   shawn@Shawn-Desktop:~/Desktop/Scripts/Hangman$ .: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0.0.
[04:35] <soreau> naz: Aww
[04:35] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: In fact, you could upgrade right now if you'd like! We're at Release Candidate right now. It's mostly about fixing minor bugs now. If you do it now, you could avoid long waitings because everybody would be upgrading and the mirror servers will get hammered.
[04:35] <Jester86> dont know what to think.. seems like battery life went way down :-\
[04:35] <Jester86> anyone know of any good way to preserve battery life?
[04:35] <kaptainkranium> I guess I'd like to see just how far this rabbit-hole goes
[04:35] <kaptainkranium> Leaf-sheep, sure why not
[04:36] <kaptainkranium> oh wow ubottu is a bot
[04:36] <kaptainkranium> thats embarassing
[04:36] <leaf-sheep> kaptainkranium: I think it is better that you learn few commands in terminal -- You even can alias them to make things easier (eg, search for the programs and whatnot).
[04:36] <osx5> it's a program, its ok kaptain
[04:36] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=315736 osx5 no idea this may help

[04:38] <Bluey> zopiac: more common is 755
[04:38] <zopiac> well still, thats not my problem
[04:38] <osx5> bazhang: found the file
[04:39] <MonkeySilent> how do i inspect modules built inside the kernel?
[04:39] <Jester86> I only paid 626 for the laptop.. I could sell it for alot more
[04:39] <Bluey> zopiac: as long as you don't want to delete files..
[04:39] <kaptainkranium> alright. Well thanks for the help, I'm going to go eat, install kk, then read up on using the terminal
[04:39] <matelot> Anyone has the URL to Chrome ?
[04:39] <maco> zopiac: maybe the lack of execute on the directory is the problem?
[04:39] <Gpsin> hi Guysa
[04:39] <Gpsin> sorry
[04:39] <boycott_MW2> Jester86 sound working?
[04:40] <Gpsin> Hi Guys

[04:40] <zopiac> i got it
[04:40] <Jester86> yeah, everything works great.. just batt life sucks
[04:40] <Gpsin> yes
[04:40] <Gpsin> please hold I will provide

[04:42] <Billiard> gscar3crow: why are you yelling
[04:42] <TinSammich> So just tested my computer dieing at 50% and its truely dieing at 57%. checked it against windows
[04:42] <gscar3crow> sorry caps
[04:42] <Jester86> est 2.5 hrs in ubuntu, 3.75-4 hrs in windows

[04:42] <gscar3crow> ty
[04:42] <davey> hi guys.. what is bpo image ? what is the diference?
[04:43] <TinSammich> any idea why my comp is completely losing power around 50%?
[04:43] <Bluey> davey: new one on me...
[04:43] <leaf-sheep> Jester86: You could try and install the essential packages tailored to your likings instead of using default packages from ubuntu-desktop.
[04:43] <boycott_MW2> hmm Jester86 definetely something to look into....Im trying to google that now but not coming up wiht much
[04:43] <maco> Jester86: yeah...i kinda doubt system76 is gonna have stellar battery life either. its still just hardware that happens tohave drivers, its not like they write super drivers just for their stuff. i thought 2h was about normal battery life though
[04:44] <Ahadiel> Jester86, Do you have cpufrequtils installed?
[04:44] <Gpsin> which is the best download manager for linux
[04:44] <TinSammich> only happens in ubuntu as well, I am able to go through the full battery in windows but for some reason ubuntu dies
[04:44] <Jester86> maco, yes i do, have it scaled done to 1.6 from 2.0
[04:44] <Bluey> Gpsin: for what kind of file?
[04:44] <Jester86> set for powersave
[04:44] <davey> uuh? one on you? come on guys.. what is that? i can delete bpo entries in grub.cfg?
[04:45] <Jester86> i mean Ahadiel, i do
[04:45] <Ahadiel> Jester86, Well, in Windows it probably lowers it even more than 1.6
[04:45] <Jester86> and leaf-sheep, i may have to try it.. i considered trying arch linux too :-\
[04:45] <Ahadiel> so that could be why
[04:45] <davey> what is bpo? i can delete that options?
[04:45] <DigitalKiwi> <3 arch
[04:45] <Jester86> hmm i could always edit it to drop down lower than 1.6
[04:45] <Ahadiel> DigitalKiwi, D:
[04:45] <Ahadiel> Jester86, or set it to "ondemand"
[04:46] <Jester86> boycott_MW2, what do u think about arch linux?
[04:46] <arghh2d2> archlinux is the sh!t
[04:46] <maco> !ohmy | arghh2d2
[04:46] <Bluey> davey: Ihave no bpo files on my machine - dont know
[04:46] <Jester86> Ahadiel, I'll have to try to edit it and see what happens.. right now i'm running fedora 11 live, just trying it out.. may have 2 linux os's on it
[04:46] <kaptainkranium> oh yeah one more thing, I'm enabling mp3 and wma playback right now, will i have to do this again when i upgrade to KK
[04:46] <davey> hi bluey.. bpo in grub menu
[04:46] <boycott_MW2> i have friends that like it.  I have not tried it myself.  I've run puppylinux before....fast light distro.
[04:47] <kaptainkranium> ?
[04:47] <davey> what is?
[04:47] <boycott_MW2> What are u looking for in a distro Jester86?
[04:47] <Gpsin> for all files
[04:47] <maco> kaptainkranium: no itll stay installed
[04:47] <maco> kaptainkranium: unless you reinstall from a cd...
[04:47] <Bluey> davey: I've never seen it - but that means it doesn't exists - there are no *.bpo files on my machine - so I don't know
[04:47] <boycott_MW2> Lubuntu is something I plan on trying Jester86
[04:47] <Jester86> boycott_MW2, i've used a ton of distros over the past decade so i'm really good w/ about anything
[04:47] <maco> hey folks, getting a little off topic
[04:48] <Jester86> i've used fc5, ubuntu, mint, arch, slackware, etc
[04:48] <boycott_MW2> Well, Jester86 I have a good friend who has tried quite a few....he has stuck with Debian.
[04:48] <arghh2d2> archlinux you build from scratch, rolling release updates, and it has lots of packages
[04:48] <maco> Jester86, arghh2d2, boycott_MW2: #ubuntu-offtopic?
[04:48] <Jester86> i may give slackware a try
[04:49] <Jester86> lol sorry maco we'll take it to pm

[05:14] <ubuntu> help, i just removed gui on start up and now there's no sound. nor can i read my usb hd
[05:14] <carbm2> anybody know if its possible to mount a samba share without having to type in a password? smbmount //server/share /mnt/point -o username=carbm1,password=XXXX just doesn't seem very secure. Is there a way to make it use your Linux password automatically?  If my credentials match on the Samba Server and my Linux I would like the authentication to be transparent to me.
[05:15] <wrapster> i wanted to do measure the throughput of my HD and ran bonnie.. here is the o/p http://pastie.org/668694
[05:15] <ratt> nasm coding un ubuntu ?
[05:15] <ubuntu> help, i just removed gui on start up and now there's no sound. nor can does my external hd read. any suggestions?
[05:15] <wrapster> but how do i find out the throughput?
[05:15] <ratt> ebook about nasm coding ?
[05:15] <wrapster> what here can be regarded as throughput?
[05:15] <Cryptic_Donkey> !9.10
[05:17] <ratt> good night peoples :D
[05:17] <ubuntu> HELP, i just removed gui on start up and now there's no sound. nor does my external hd work.
[05:17] <ous6> guys i need help, i have installed ubuntu but, i cant detect wireless, the wifi light does not turn on, i have installed ndiswrapper and inf file from windows driver but stiil no go
[05:18] <carbm2> ubuntu, After you disabled Gnome from startup the mounter would have quit working.  You will manually have to mount your USB drive.
[05:18] <doc-saintly> Are there known fixes for getting sound in flash on ubuntu? It worked great for a month and now it suddenly stopped
[05:18] <carbm2> ubuntu, as far as sound goes... your going to play sound from CLI?
[05:18] <wgrant> carbm2: You can't do that. But is there a particular reason that you want to mount it, rather than using GNOME's built-in support?
[05:18] <ubuntu> carbm2, i started x
[05:18] <ubuntu> so i would like sound to work in x
[05:18] <wgrant> carbm2: (GNOME will remember the passwords)
[05:19] <carbm2> doc-saintly,  I just yesterday had to uninstall "dpkg -r adobe-flashplugin" and reinstall to fix my sound.
[05:20] <carbm2> wgrant, I want to go to Documents and it be the same files that are on my server.  So I'm mounting the share instead of having to browse.... I would like my files tranparently.  I can do this with SSHFS and keys but I hate the overhead.
[05:20] <TinSammich> Have a quick question about trash. When I select something to move to trash and then go to trash under places, nothing is in there to empty. Was wondering if there is a way to turn off auto empty or if theres a reason it is not showing up?
[05:20] <carbm2> ubuntu, did you disable gdm from starting or did you remove it and just reinstalled it?
[05:20] <som> ls
[05:21] <ubuntu> carbm2, i just disabled so, i am going to try and reinable
[05:21] <carbm2> ubuntu, "sudo update-rc.d gdm default"
[05:21] <doc-saintly> trying that carbm2
[05:21] <Sirisian> Anyone know what source file contains the code for getpid in the kernel source?
[05:24] <rave> hi can anybody tell me how to set windows properties my all windows are opening  maximised and its kinda annoying
[05:25] <ubuntu> how do i re-enable the gui?
[05:25] <carbm2> ubuntu, "sudo update-rc.d gdm default"
[05:25] <Royall> My compiz-fusion isn't working at all
[05:25] <Royall> I try to start it and I get nothin
[05:26] <carbm2> I'm sorry... "sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults"
[05:26] <carbm2> then "sudo service gdm restart"
[05:26] <ubuntu> oh ok
[05:28] <ubuntu1> cool, it worked :) thanks
[05:28] <carbm2> ubuntu, I'm actually curious to know if your sound is working now.... I figure if you disabled gdm on startup and were using startx as a normal user I wonder if some of the important dependencies were loaded.
[05:28] <DaZ> Royall: glxinfo|grep direct? :f
[05:28] <carbm2> ubuntu, well.... that answers that.
[05:28] <ubuntu1> carbm2, ya the sound and usb hard disk mounts now
[05:29] <ubuntu1> everything is back to normal but, i still have gui login... last time i had to reinstall tho
[05:29] <ubuntu1> so this is really good
[05:29] <rave> hi can anybody tell me how to set windows properties my all windows are opening  maximised and its kinda annoying
[05:30] <ubuntu1> rave, system > preferences > windows
[05:30]  * tuisi slaps tuisi around a bit with a large trout
[05:31] <DigitalKiwi> Sirisian: did you find it?
[05:31] <Sirisian> nope
[05:31] <Sirisian> been looking for like 5 hours :\
[05:31] <Sirisian> I feel like I'm missing something important
[05:31] <carbm2> ubuntu1, what version are you running?  I couldn't find anything about maximize in my system>pref>window on 9.10.
[05:31] <magikid> anyone know nautilus stores the desktop background image?
[05:32] <rave> ubuntu1 no there is nothing to help i did some update and this started happining before it was fine
[05:32] <ubuntu1> actually, i thought it would be there but there's nothing. my bad
[05:32] <carbm2> magikid, are you wanting to know where exactly the file is where to manually change the setting?
[05:32] <magikid> carbm2: yes
[05:32] <michael_jameson> hey, i'm having some trouble with this error code:E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[05:32] <michael_jameson> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[05:32] <michael_jameson> any ideas?
[05:32] <carbm2> rave, If your running compiz or such you may need to check there.
[05:32] <rave> ok
[05:32] <starke_> Billiard, http://pastebin.ca/1642348
[05:32] <carbm2> magikid, You want to know where the file is?
[05:33] <Ahadiel> michael_jameson, It looks like you should run "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[05:33] <Billiard> michael_jameson: did you try what it said?
[05:33] <magikid> carbm2: yes
[05:33] <michael_jameson> i tried and nothing happened
[05:33] <Ahadiel> michael_jameson, Did you run it in a terminal?
[05:33] <michael_jameson> of course
[05:34] <Sirisian> DigitalKiwi, Have you noticed that in the /usr/src/linux-2.6.28/arch/i386 folder there's only a /boot in there and nothing else. Did they switch to using the /x86 folder halway through 2.6? Not sure if you said something because you know where it is.
[05:34] <DigitalKiwi> find /path/to/kernelsource "*\.h"|grep "\.h$"|xargs grep "getpid"
[05:34] <michael_jameson> let me try the update again
[05:34] <michael_jameson> thanks
[05:34] <Billiard> starke_: did you try to access an actual file, not a directory index
[05:34] <Sirisian> DigitalKiwi, halfway* Do you have the kernel source on your computer?
[05:34] <starke_> Billiard,  directory
[05:34] <carbm2> magikid, "gconftool-2 -g /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename"
[05:35] <Billiard> starke_: try an actualy file
[05:35] <DigitalKiwi> Sirisian: maybe
[05:35] <michael_jameson> it says i have a broken package on my system
[05:35] <carbm2> magikid, that will print out where the file is actually at.
[05:35] <michael_jameson> and to use the broken package locater to find it
[05:35] <magikid> carbm2: thanks
[05:35] <michael_jameson> wtf?
[05:37] <mu> Hello. I just put together a new computer and am wondering if there are available hardware tests for Ubuntu (either diagnostics, benchmarking, or whatnot) in order to make sure the hardware is in order. Any pointers?
[05:37] <Nitrodist> !ask
[05:37] <IonutB> hey guys. how could i fix this problem ? printscreen : http://i35.tinypic.com/2cqogp3.png
[05:38] <Royall> direct rendering: Yes
[05:38] <Royall> DaZ: ^
[05:38] <michael_jameson> i think it's all good
[05:38] <carbm2> mu, All the cd's contain the MEM86+ RAM test... that is a good place to start.
[05:38] <DaZ> Royall: then it should work :f
[05:38] <michael_jameson> appreciate the info guys
[05:38] <Nitrodist> IonutB, looksl ike your repo is down
[05:38] <Sirisian> DigitalKiwi, http://pastebin.com/m26221639 What exactly am I looking for? Do you have a i386 directory with stuff in it in the arch folder?
[05:38] <Royall> DaZ: nope, I don't have desktop wall or animations or nothing
[05:39] <IonutB> Nitrodist, do you mean the server is down ?
[05:39] <mu> carbm2: Thanks, that was the first tool I used and I let it run for half an hour before stopping it with no errors. Which is good, because my memory came defective and I just got it back. I'm thinking more specifically of the hard disk drive.
[05:39] <Nitrodist> IonutB, just try pinging the server that you're trying to download from
[05:39] <Sirisian> DigitalKiwi, I know I'm looking for a definition of sys_getpid or something but I don't see anything like that
[05:39] <Nitrodist> IonutB, ro.archive.ubuntu.com
[05:39] <IonutB> Nitrodist, ok then. can i borrow your sourcelist ? :)
[05:39] <carbm2> mu, Do you have any data on the hard drives yet?
[05:40] <mu> Yes, Ubuntu. And a Windows XP partition that won't boot up; In either case I have no problem wiping either.
[05:40] <mu> Nothing important on here.
[05:40] <DigitalKiwi> os.h:extern int os_getpid(void); my bet is this one but I'm not sure
[05:40] <mu> I get a "CRC error" when selecting the install option from the LiveCD, wondering if it is my HDD or opt drive...
[05:41] <IonutB> Nitrodist, the pink is ~ ok : 10 packets transmitted, 10 received, 0% packet loss, time 9011ms ( isn't it too much time ? )
[05:41] <mu> At any rate, booting from the CD to a desktop and installing it from there worked.
[05:41] <IonutB> *ping
[05:41] <carbm2> mu, Since you have data I would consider downloading the manufacturer's diagnostics and just running a full test to be on the safe side. After that there really isn't much else.  I was thinking you could zero write your drive through ubuntu live disc or something but I wouldn't want you to lose anything.
[05:41] <Nitrodist> IonutB, hmm, then I'm out of ideas :P
[05:42] <carbm2> mu, if your getting a crc error just while booting from the CD usually means a bad download or bad burn not anything to do with the hard drive. (i've been wrong before though)
[05:42] <mu> Well literally all of my data is on a different disc, I have no trouble wiping, but I could just use the manufacturers tools. Probably not Linux compatible but perhaps burnable...
[05:42] <IonutB> Nitrodist, should i try to edit my source.list from "ro".archive.ubuntu.com in "en".archive.ubuntu.com ? ( change the server )
[05:42] <mu> Also, the "Check disc for defects" turns up no errors.
[05:42] <Nitrodist> IonutB, I wouldn't advise that
[05:42] <carbm2> mu, weird then.  I would use manufactures tests because it will give you better information from your drive.
[05:43] <Nitrodist> IonutB, sounds like you're using a localized language version of ubuntu
[05:43] <Sirisian> DigitalKiwi, my professor made this sound trivial. "Go edit the getpid() to use printk and some other stuff. That os.h file is for another architecture and is just a declaration.
[05:43] <IonutB> Nitrodist, not really. my language is in english :)
[05:43] <mu> Yeah, weird, I have a feeling that the motherboard drivers I installed on XP caused it to stop working... that, however, is not a Linux problem, so I'll bite it and format/reinstall/and see what I can do.
[05:43] <mu> Thanks.
[05:44] <Nitrodist> IonutB, then do that :P
[05:44] <ous6> hi i need help with ubuntu, my wireless is not working
[05:45] <carbm2> ous6, did I hear you say earlier that you have already installed the inf using ndiswrapper?
[05:45] <soreau> ous6: Which wifi card do you have reported by lspci?
[05:45] <isola73dsh33p> hey peeps
[05:45] <isola73dsh33p> nebody home?
[05:46] <isola73dsh33p> ...
[05:46] <isola73dsh33p> hello
[05:46] <soreau> isola73dsh33p: Nope, you're all alone
[05:46] <carbm2> isola73dsh33p, lots of people home.
[05:46] <isola73dsh33p> =_=
[05:46] <IonutB> Nitrodist, it's working now with "en" instead of "ro" :-p.
[05:46] <isola73dsh33p> guys do u hv problem with ur video player?
[05:46] <IonutB> btw, "http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu" stills ignored.
[05:47] <isola73dsh33p> ...
[05:47] <wgrant> IonutB: Which file in particular?
[05:47] <isola73dsh33p> so?
[05:47] <isola73dsh33p> ...
[05:47] <soreau> isola73dsh33p: Don't talk like a baby. Form complete sentences and spell your words correctly
[05:47] <Nitrodist> IonutB, just hope it doesn't break :P
[05:47] <isola73dsh33p> owh, sorry...
[05:47] <isola73dsh33p> so this is like a forum huh?
[05:47] <IonutB> wgrant, srry, i can't get it. what do  you mean ?
[05:47] <dsdeiz> hey, how do i determine battery life throught the command line?
[05:47] <Raven\> in installing ubuntu desktop, do i need to extrak the iso file? or just burn it ?
[05:48] <isola73dsh33p> so, do you have problems with you video player?
[05:48] <wgrant> IonutB: You said that http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu is ignored. What is the line that tells you that?
[05:48] <soreau> isola73dsh33p: This is a support channel for ubuntu
[05:48] <carbm2> isola73dsh33p,  I'm running 9.10 and my Movie Player is working fine. What problem are you experiencing?
[05:48] <IonutB> wgrant, ah, ok. just a moment to take a printscreen.
[05:48] <carbm2> Raven\,  just burn the ISO and reboot and boot off the cd.
[05:48] <isola73dsh33p> the video is so slow when in full screen
[05:49] <IonutB> wgrant, take a look here, pls : http://i38.tinypic.com/2uf9h1g.png
[05:49] <wgrant> IonutB: Ah, that's just the translation files.
[05:50] <DigitalKiwi> wow linus' git branch is like 500 MB for the kernel :(
[05:50] <isola73dsh33p> ..
[05:50] <isola73dsh33p> huwm..
[05:50] <Raven\> carbm2: i dont need to extrak it?
[05:50] <carbm2> isola73dsh33p, I don't guess I have had a problem myself.  What exactly are you watching? Anything specific.
[05:50] <wgrant> IonutB: Since the package indices are already in English, there are no English translations, so it can't download them.
[05:50] <IonutB> wgrant, aww, tnx :D
[05:50] <carbm2> Raven\, No, you simply need to burn it using a CD Burning software.
[05:50] <Raven\> oh ok
[05:51] <wgrant> Raven\: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[05:51] <isola73dsh33p> i'm not sure the name of the software but i'm trying to play mp4 files
[05:51] <soreau> ! pm | ous6
[05:51] <soreau> ! broadcom | ous6
[05:51] <DigitalKiwi> actually way more :(
[05:52] <ous6> k
[05:52] <isola73dsh33p> btw, is 9.10 working fine?
[05:52] <lao5> isola73dsh33p: not really now
[05:52] <wgrant> isola73dsh33p: Yep. It will be released in four days (but discussion about it belongs in #ubuntu+1)
[05:53] <isola73dsh33p> so its better to stick with 9.04 right?
[05:53] <carbm2> isola73dsh33p, did you install the 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' yet? Just to make sure you have all the plugins for the mp4?
[05:53] <ubuntu> does anyone know how to unlock services?
[05:53] <isola73dsh33p> i not sure which it is..
[05:53] <ubuntu> system > administration > services... anyone know how to unlock?
[05:53] <isola73dsh33p> but when i try to play the mp4 files, a package is suggested..
[05:54] <isola73dsh33p> but i have not install that..
[05:54] <wgrant> ubuntu: There is no little unlock icon along the bottom?
[05:54] <Billiard> ubuntu: type in your password?
[05:54] <carbm2> isola73dsh33p, I would stick with your 9.04 until 9.10 is released.  Also, you might try doing "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras -y" in a terminal and see if your video playback gets any better.
[05:54] <isola73dsh33p> the one with 18 files
[05:54] <ubuntu> wgrant, yes there is but it's not active
[05:54] <isola73dsh33p> ok.. i'll try it now.. thanks :)
[05:54] <carbm2> isola73dsh33p, the command I just gave you will do a lot of installs... Flash, Java, Proprietary Video Codecs and such.  Very useful
[05:55] <Raven\> can i use a software burner called nero ?
[05:55] <ubuntu> wgrant, the only active buttons are help and close
[05:55] <carbm2> Raven\, that would be PERFECT!
[05:55] <ubuntu> i'm not being prompted for the password
[05:55] <Raven\> what speed is ok?
[05:56] <isola73dsh33p> *downloading*
[05:56] <isola73dsh33p> what's actually new in gnome 2.8 or something?
[05:56] <carbm2> ous6, "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter"  Then tell it to download the firmware. The rest is automated and you will need to restart for your wireless to work.
[05:57] <o2Do> hey all, my CD drive is dead, no usb boot support, and I am already running ubuntu, but I want to start fresh...any way to do this?
[05:57] <carbm2> Raven\, usually the fasted it shows is the fastest the disc will support. So just leave it at default.
[05:58] <soreau> o2Do: get a new cdrom driver already
[05:58] <carbm2> o2Do, do you want to start the entire system over or just your account? You could simply create a new user.
[05:58] <soreau> ous6: Get a working cdrom drive if it's not a laptop even
[05:58] <ubuntu> anyone know how to unlock services settings?
[05:58] <Billiard> o2Do: cd drives are 5 dollars, or install from network, or take hard drive out install on another computer
[05:58] <soreau> ubuntu: What do you mean by that?
[05:58] <isola73dsh33p> what's new in gnome 2.28?
[05:59] <ubuntu> soreau, i can't unlock it or edit it
[05:59] <soreau> ubuntu: it?
[05:59] <ubuntu> it's all grey - inactive
[05:59] <ubuntu> services setttings
[05:59] <o2Do> I installed via network last time, but the computer I used is dead now :(
[05:59] <Billiard> ubuntu, are you able to use other "unlock" buttons
[05:59] <o2Do> I want a fresh start
[05:59] <soreau> ubuntu: Not sure what you mean by 'services setttings'
[05:59] <carbm2> isola73dsh33p, http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.28/#rnusers
[05:59] <ubuntu> billiard, where would other ones be?
[05:59] <ous6> soreau: my laptop has a working cdrom
[06:00] <carbm2> ous6, did you try that command for your wireless?
[06:00] <ubuntu> soreau, system >admin>services
[06:00] <Billiard> ubuntu: some of the other items under administration have them
[06:00] <sohrab> hi all
[06:00] <ubuntu> it's called "services settings" :)
[06:00] <soreau> ous6: Gah, auto-tab-completion fail. that was meant for o2Do
[06:00] <ous6> carbm2: yes
[06:00] <sohrab> Billiard, come to pm
[06:01] <carbm2> ous6, is it still downloading or did it work???
[06:01] <isola73dsh33p> this cheese thing, is it new?
[06:01] <soreau> ubuntu: What happens when you click on the unlock button there?
[06:01] <o2Do> there are no options to just like do a recovery from terminal or something?
[06:01] <ubuntu> soreau, nothing happens. it's inactive
[06:02] <ubuntu> billiard, what other items have them? i'm not finding any eyt
[06:02] <ous6> carbm2: am downloading both
[06:02] <Billiard> ubuntu: are you able to sudo?
[06:02] <soreau> ubuntu: What do you mean nothing happens?
[06:02] <soreau> ubuntu: You're not being very specific
[06:02] <ubuntu> soreau, i mean nothing happens. how else can i explain that?
[06:02] <carbm2> o2Do, I would simply create a new user then go through synaptic and PURGE what you don't want.
[06:03] <Billiard> soreau: his button is disabled, unclickable
[06:03] <carbm2> o2Do, without a CDROM I can't think of a good way to do this.
[06:03] <o2Do> will that delete hidden directories?
[06:04] <Deihmos> i need to find out how to make ubuntu look half way decent. the ui is ugly compared to windows 7
[06:04] <carbm2> o2Do, Should if the package installed them.  If you create a new user hidden configuration directories won't exist under that user until the programs are run but you going to delete them anyways so whats the worry?
[06:04] <soreau> ubuntu: Run it from your terminal and see if there is any output: services-admin
[06:04] <o2Do> ok, I think I follow you
[06:05] <ous6> carbm2: i have downloaded the files, how do i install them
[06:05] <ubuntu> billiard, soreau, i tried sudo services-admin & .... terminal said "[1] 5665"... then "[1]+ Stopped"..
[06:05] <carbm2> Deihmos, http://tinyurl.com/yzdxnbm   ... what do you think?
[06:05] <carbm2> ous6, did you tell it to download the firmware when it installed?
[06:05] <ubuntu> soreau, services-admin opens the same window
[06:05] <ubuntu> "services settings"
[06:06] <supertimmy> Hello. I am trying to connect to my work VPN (L2TP IPsec) in Ubuntu 9.04. I have a certificate as well as a pre-shared key. Is there an wasy way to set this up using the network mnager or do I have to go down the Open/StrongSwan route?
[06:06] <carbm2> ubuntu, then try alt+f2 then "gksu services-admin"
[06:06] <Deihmos> that can't compare to how win 7 looks. maybe i need to install something because the fonts and colors look really dull
[06:06] <soreau> ubuntu: Well you're not supposed to run it with sudo
[06:06] <ous6> carbm2: downloaded using a different laptop
[06:06] <o2Do> I ran:  tar cf o2Do_home.tar /home after cd /media/disk (external HDD) that will back up all my crap right?
[06:07] <carbm2> ous6, can't do that... you need to do it on the laptop itself.  You may have to plug it in for the time being.
[06:07] <ous6> i just have wifi
[06:07] <ubuntu> soreau, ya i tried it without too
[06:07] <soreau> o2Do: You should use /home/*
[06:07] <carbm2> ous6, If you have wifi then you surely have a plug somewhere....
[06:08] <carbm2> o2Do, that should work though...
[06:08] <ubuntu> carbm2, it opens the same "services settings" window
[06:08] <soreau> o2Do: It will create a tarball containing all your files and directories in /home
[06:08] <CaptainMorgan> not sure if I be asking here or on #windows... grub shows ubuntu and windows. To get into ubuntu, I need to set AHCI in BIOS to enabled, whereas if I want to get into windows I need it to be disabled... obviously, I major inconvenience... any thoughts?
[06:08] <ous6> ethernet port is not working
[06:08] <carbm2> ubuntu, but by doing the gksu first it opens it with administrative privledges.
[06:08] <o2Do> it is taking a while :D I will check before moving forward though
[06:09] <CaptainMorgan> ubuntu hangs as reboots, sometimes giving errors about the hdd if I chose when it AHCI is not enabled...
[06:09] <ubuntu> carbm2, ok cool but, it doesn't seem to work..
[06:09] <carbm2> ous6, ok, then you may need to copy the contents of /var/cache/apt from your laptop to the other to install.   I have no idea if that will work though.
[06:09] <CaptainMorgan> s/as/and/
[06:09] <ous6> carbm2, k
[06:10] <maco> CaptainMorgan: you're not my brother, are you?
[06:10] <CaptainMorgan> maco, and why would you believe or disbelieve that?
[06:11] <maco> CaptainMorgan: because my brother goes by that nick and uses ubuntu
[06:11] <jonathan1> .
[06:11] <o2Do> errrrm...do you think it is possible to network install ubuntu from a VM running on a windows PC?
[06:11] <maco> CaptainMorgan: though thats not a sentence he would've said, so im guessing "no"
[06:11] <ubuntu> marco, i am your father
[06:11] <Sirisian> Does anyone here have the ubuntu source code downloaded for the kernel? Can someone verify that that the arch/i386 folder only contains a folder called "boot"
[06:11] <ubuntu> join the dark side :)
[06:11] <morpheuss> hi
[06:11] <carbm2> o2Do, absolutely... not easy but absolutely.
[06:11] <ous6> carbm2, what is /var/cache/apt
[06:12] <o2Do> I did a network install before...is it any harder than that :)
[06:12] <morpheuss> how can we delete bash history not by command or opening /user/.bash_history?
[06:12] <maco> Sirisian: there is no arch/i386 folder when i look...
[06:12] <carbm2> ous6, its your updates and cached DEB files....
[06:12]  * CaptainMorgan thinks maco might have the good Captain confused for another captain of a similar handle - there is only ONE CaptainMorgan 
[06:12] <ous6> carbm2, is that in the broadcom file?
[06:12] <maco> CaptainMorgan: my dad and brother both use that name, since our last name is morgan and we have a boat :P
[06:12] <Sirisian> maco, you're telling me you have linux-2.8.28 or something and there's no arch folder?
[06:12] <carbm2> o2Do, Yes... you will need to modify your DHCP server to offer BOOTP and setup a TFTP server. Extract the kernel from the ISO and setup PXELinux on the TFP server.
[06:13] <CaptainMorgan> #offtopic
[06:13] <CaptainMorgan> !offtopic
[06:13] <maco> Sirisian: i have 2.6.31 and theres an arch folder, yeah, but it doesnt contain i386
[06:13] <carbm2> ous6, the broadcom file should be in there somewhere....
[06:13] <maco> Sirisian: it has: alpha  avr32     cris  h8300  Kconfig  m68k       microblaze  mn10300  powerpc  sh     um   xtensa arm    blackfin  frv   ia64   m32r     m68knommu  mips        parisc   s390     sparc  x86
[06:13] <Sirisian> interesting maco. Is there an arch/x86 then?
[06:13] <carbm2> ous6, and hopefully all the dependencies of it so thats why I was telling you to take the whole folder.
[06:13] <maco> Sirisian: yes x86
[06:13] <maco> Sirisian: that has about a dozen directories below it
[06:14] <Sirisian> maco, ah okay thanks. Just verifying. I noticed a few tutorials reference that directory. I'm wondering if they changed things.
[06:14]  * carbm2 will be right back.
[06:14] <ous6> carbm2, how do i install that file in ubuntu
[06:15] <mzawieska> hello
[06:15] <mzawieska> good morning everyone
[06:15] <mzawieska> if there is some1 here :/
[06:16]  * mojo_o wave enthusiastically at mzawieska 
[06:16] <mzawieska> lol
[06:16] <mzawieska> :)
[06:16] <morpheuss> you cant see 1344 ppl around :P
[06:16] <mzawieska> is there I way to install itunes
[06:16] <mojo_o> you could try wine
[06:16] <jalkjd> a
[06:16] <mzawieska> cause i have iphone
[06:17] <rockstarrem> mzawieska: i believe PlayOnLinux has an option to install iTunes, haven't tried it myself though
[06:17] <maco> mzawieska: no, apple's not that ready to admit there's an alternative. rhythmbox may be able to transfer songs to it...
[06:17] <mzawieska> oh sh*t totaly forgot about that
[06:17] <carbm2> ous6, You will need to copy that entire folder to a flash drive or burn it to a CD. Then copy it back to the same place on the other laptop.
[06:17] <Lord_R> how can i install ubuntu via usb?
[06:17] <DigitalKiwi> !usb
[06:17] <xiambax> i wish rhythmbox would display my itune shares properly. i cant get it to work in 9.10
[06:17] <Lord_R> do i need Unetbootin?
[06:17] <o2Do> is there anyway I can partition my HDD, and then install ubuntu from within ubuntu on to that partition, then add it to GRUB, boot into it and delete my old ubuntu?
[06:18] <mzawieska> but there is a way to install itunes the newest relese thru wine
[06:18] <mzawieska> correct/
[06:18] <maco> xiambax: downgrade itunes to itunes 6
[06:18] <ous6> carbm2, same place? i dont understand. i have the file transferred on the ubuntu desktop using a usb
[06:18] <maco> xiambax: itunes 7 has encryption to prevent non-itunes clients from seeings its shares
[06:18] <carbm2> o2Do,  not that I know of.
[06:18] <xiambax> downgrade by 3 versions. no thanks
[06:18] <o2Do> darn
[06:19] <Lord_R> Put Ubuntu CD to your cd drive. Dismiss possible automatic pop-ups.  ->if i dont have a cd? can i still install via usB?
[06:19] <xiambax> I have simplifymedia running on it
[06:19] <maco> xiambax: 3? i thought 7 was the newest. theyre on 9 now?
[06:19] <xiambax> so anything doing upnp should work fine no?
[06:19] <mojo_o> o2Do: i know you can do it with other distros, so there's probably a way
[06:19] <xiambax> YEa
[06:19] <o2Do> I found a tut that does it from windows, so I was hoping I could from ubuntu
[06:19] <xiambax> Yeah. I tunes 9
[06:19] <mojo_o> o2Do: it's not easy
[06:19] <mzawieska> so itunes 9 can be install tru wine
[06:20] <maco> xiambax: wow. ok. well umm...yeah, apple doesnt want you to share music, thus you dont share music. and you thought it was your computer, eh?
[06:20] <mzawieska> cause i want to upgrade my iphone :/
[06:20] <mojo_o> wine itunes status: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1347
[06:20] <maco> mzawieska: dont know. check the wine app db
[06:20] <maco> mzawieska: we're talking about a different itunes problem
[06:20] <mzawieska> aha
[06:20] <carbm2> ous6, the laptop you ran that command on has a folder "/var/cache/apt" .. You want to take EVERYTHING in that folder and copy it to the other laptop and put that folder in "/var/cache/apt" and overwrite everything. Then run "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter" on the other laptop. Then it shouldn't need an internet connection to install the driver.
[06:21] <mojo_o> mzawieska: looks like it doesn't run on ubuntu, just arch linux is listed as working
[06:21] <xiambax> i need anything that can play a upnp stream
[06:21] <xiambax> i have simplify media
[06:21] <mzawieska> so there is no way i could install itunes on ubuntu
[06:21] <mzawieska> :<
[06:22] <mzawieska> so sad
[06:22] <mzawieska> :/
[06:22] <mojo_o> well it's only rated bronze on arch, looks like it's pretty crap everywhere
[06:23] <xiambax> rhythmbox loads like 10 songs then stops
[06:23] <mzawieska> LOL
[06:23] <mzawieska> http://www.linuxscrew.com/2007/09/19/install-itunes-72-in-ubuntu-and-other-linux-distros/
[06:24] <mzawieska> what do you guys think about this tutorial?
[06:24] <DigitalKiwi> arch > ubuntu then, mojo_o ? >.>
[06:24] <Billiard> mzawieska: even if you can install and run itunes you probably cant update your iphone
[06:24] <DigitalKiwi> bronce is better than nothing!
[06:24] <o2Do> well the tut says: get linux.bin and initrd.gz; edit GRUB menu.lst  and add that path, then from GRUB it runs like a network install
[06:24] <DigitalKiwi> s/c/z/
[06:25] <TinSammich> Trying to figure out a battery problem. Ubuntu quits at around 50% battery but when I log onto vista i still have around 50% charge. Any ideas?
[06:25] <o2Do> how does that sound?
[06:25] <DaZ> DigitalKiwi: bronze usually means 'menu loads'
[06:25] <ous6> carbm2, i cant paste the folder into /var/cache/apt, it say permission denied
[06:25] <mzawieska> but at least i can manage my songs and videos
[06:25] <DigitalKiwi> DaZ: hehe
[06:25] <mzawieska> :<
[06:25] <DaZ> hell, even silver or sometimes gold
[06:25] <mzawieska> I am sick of the songs I been listening past a year or so
[06:25] <DaZ> people on appdb are just overenthusiastic ;f
[06:25] <carbm2> ous6, hit alt+f2 then type "gksu nautilus" then do it.
[06:26] <xiambax> http://i33.tinypic.com/20jrec7.png see.... it loads 7 songs and then stops.
[06:26] <xiambax> i have like 2000 songs on underworld
[06:27] <DaZ> xiambax: any console output? :f
[06:27] <DaZ> nice desktop btw
[06:27] <xiambax> What logs would i look in?
[06:27] <mzawieska> :<have you guys heard about codeweavers cross over
[06:27] <mzawieska> cross over mac cross over games cross over linux
[06:28] <DaZ> xiambax: run it from the console
[06:28] <ous6> carbm2, i did that, it still say denied
[06:28] <xiambax> yeah. i got a bunch of free copys of codeweaves when they lost that bet
[06:28] <DaZ> crashes usually print something ;f
[06:28] <mojo_o> mzawieska: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone
[06:29] <carbm2> ous6,  I don't know how it could be denied when your running as root.
[06:29] <o2Do> I am sorry but can I do a fresh reinstall from recovery mode?
[06:30] <mzawieska> this seems to confusing to me
[06:30] <mzawieska> :<
[06:31] <ous6> carbm2, i copied it, whats next?
[06:31] <carbm2> o2Do, seriously?  Your really not wanting to buy a new cdrom huh?   It shouldn't be that hard to cleanup what you have now though.
[06:31] <carbm2> ous6, at the terminal type "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter"
[06:31] <mojo_o> mzawieska: it basically means install windows via virtualbox. it's running windows inside linux.
[06:31] <xiambax> DaZ, http://pastebin.com/m4e15b1ba
[06:32] <mzawieska> yea
[06:32] <DaZ> xiambax: doesn't look important >:
[06:32] <o2Do> I do not feel like replacing my laptops cd drive :( and I was hoping to do this tonight.
[06:32] <Deihmos> i was trying to make ubuntu look a little better but it seems that everything requires multiple steps unlike windows
[06:33] <carbm2> o2Do, well... I understand that.  However, I dont' think its going to work out for ya.
[06:33] <carbm2> Deihmos, what did you think of that picture earlier?
[06:33] <xiambax> http://pastebin.com/m14104a7c DeZ
[06:33] <xiambax> I can play the few songs it loads. they stream and even pull album artwork
[06:34] <ous6> carbm, it say : could not find package b43-fwcutter
[06:34] <Deihmos> i thought it looked dull
[06:34] <Deihmos> colors are not vibrant on this
[06:35] <xiambax> http://i33.tinypic.com/35irn2c.png see
[06:35] <carbm2> Deihmos, are you wanting pink or purple???
[06:36] <bigfootbuilt> Is anyone here using Xchat on Ubuntu? If so, I have an annoying problem here
[06:36] <xiambax> Im using x-chat
[06:36] <carbm2> bigfootbuilt, I just started using it.
[06:37] <nevets04> in adsense if i put more adds on webpage do i get more money?
[06:37] <bigfootbuilt> xiambax: carbm2: Well, after I submit my text, it shows up as a faded gray color and I can't hardly see it. I cannot find the color option to change it. I can only change the colors of my nickname, etc
[06:37] <carbm2> ous6, I can't find any information on that right now... give me a sec.
[06:37] <bazhang> !ot | nevets04
[06:37] <bigfootbuilt> Everyone elses text is bright white
[06:38] <carbm2> bigfootbuilt, I do edit>prefs>colors>white on black which makes it easier to read.
[06:38] <xiambax> Prefs, Interface, Colours, Colour 14 and 15, maybe 30 and 31 too
[06:38] <bigfootbuilt> carb2: I got that part, but I can't change my own text that displays once I submit
[06:38] <xiambax> yes
[06:39] <xiambax> Yeah. I just edited mine
[06:39] <xiambax> It fixed the issue i was having too
[06:39] <xiambax> I just never change it cause it doesnt bother me
[06:39] <xiambax> I know what im typing.
[06:39] <bigfootbuilt> I already forgot what I typed one minute ago bcause I can't see what I typed lol
[06:39] <xiambax> Im not as anal as you :D
[06:39] <xiambax> You figure it out?
[06:39] <bigfootbuilt> no
[06:39] <roger2> hello i am trying to find an updated driver for my laptop video card: ATI Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2X
[06:40] <carbm2> ous6, try "sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/b43-fwcutter_1%3a012-1_i386.deb"
[06:40] <xiambax> Settings, Prefs, Interface, Colours..... Change colours 14, 15, 30, and 31.
[06:40] <roger2> i installed ubunto 9.04 on an old presario laptop and having problems with display
[06:40] <bigfootbuilt> k, will try
[06:41] <bigfootbuilt> --color test--
[06:42] <bigfootbuilt> --color test--
[06:42] <xiambax> it work?
[06:42] <carbm2> roger2, You should install Envy and let it install the driver for you.
[06:43] <Brando753> has ubuntu fixed the 2038 bug?
[06:43] <bigfootbuilt> xiambax: Looks like that was it. I could've sworn I already looked at all that. Thanks for the help
[06:43] <MasterBob> for some reason rhythmbox is completely freezing up on me. I can't get it to play any music. lyrics work, album images work, except it doesn't play any music. I have a large music library, but I can't figure out what's wrong with it. once it freezes it just doesn't stop. if i close it out and open it again, it still freezes.
[06:43] <xiambax> No problem
[06:43] <mgmuscari> has anybody seen this yet: http://tinyurl.com/nw2cw2
[06:43] <roger2> ok where would i get envy..i am a total noob..should i just google it?
[06:44] <ous6> carbm2, it gave me options
[06:44] <DigitalKiwi> mgmuscari: old news is old
[06:44] <xiambax> old new mgmuscari
[06:44] <bazhang> mgmuscari, that is offtopic here
[06:44] <xiambax> s/news
[06:44] <carbm2> roger2, System>Administration, Synaptic ... then search for Envy.
[06:45] <carbm2> ous6, what kind of options?
[06:45] <WilliamC2> How do I reconfigure my display driver?
[06:45] <mgmuscari> ah, i thought it was 2 days old
[06:45] <mgmuscari> but now i see that this is a mirror of the post
[06:45] <WilliamC2> I installed some updates and now my video card isn't working.
[06:46] <mgmuscari> either way - i hadn't seen it yet... been living in a hole lately :)
[06:46] <MK13> i am trying to set up a static ip for my ubuntu machine, I have it set to the same ip range that the router gives out, but when using the static address i can't even ping to the router, any suggestions?
[06:46] <darthanubis> !details | WilliamC2
[06:46] <mgmuscari> WilliamC2: what video driver are you using?
[06:46] <WilliamC2> NVidia
[06:46] <darthanubis> !nvidia
[06:46] <maco> MK13: check your route
[06:46] <maco> MK13: route -n
[06:46] <mgmuscari> WilliamC2: if you're having trouble running X, you can configure your display through /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:47] <MK13> maco, what should i look for?
[06:47] <Ademan> is there a way to select the run level for a live CD ?
[06:47] <mgmuscari> WilliamC2: what do you mean by it's "not working?"
[06:47] <maco> MK13: pastebin it and lemme have a look
[06:47] <carbm2> MK13, are you editing your /etc/network/interfaces file for your static or are you using Network Manager to configure it?
[06:47] <WilliamC2> I installed updates and it wouldn't start unless I reset my display settings
[06:47] <MasterBob> anyone, for some reason rhythmbox is completely freezing up on me. I'm on ubuntu 9.04. everything works except playing the actual music, even the music bar doesn't move. eventually the window will gray out. i have closed it and opened it several times and it still hasn't "unfroze".
[06:48] <maco> Ademan: "telinit" after boot? itd be kinda silly. i mean, you have 4 options. shut down, single user, on, and reboot
[06:48] <ous6> carbm2,this is the output:dpkg: unknown option -/
[06:48] <mgmuscari> WilliamC2: you mean X wouldn't start? what do you mean reset your display settings?
[06:48] <onlinebro> MasterBob: did it ever work?
[06:48] <maco> Ademan: ubuntu, like debian, has runlevels 2-5 set to "use a disply manager if one is installed". all 4 of those runlevels are exactly the same
[06:48] <MasterBob> onlinebro, yes, works all the time. just started to do this a few days ago
[06:49] <MasterBob> let me run it in terminal and give you a pastebin.
[06:49] <Ademan> maco: any other options for preventing x from starting? still can't get gdm to die...
[06:49] <onlinebro> ok
[06:49] <Ademan> maco: really? we have no single user runlevel?
[06:49] <maco> Ademan: there is single user
[06:49] <carbm2> ous6, Try alt+f2 type "gksu nautilus".  Browse to /var/cache/apt/archives. Double click on b43-fwcutterXXXXXX.deb. then click install. See what happens then.
[06:49] <maco> Ademan: thats 1. but 2-5 are all the same.
[06:50] <MasterBob> onlinebro, can't figure out how to get rhythmbox to give me details..it just opens the app and that's it
[06:50] <Ademan> maco: yeah ok, well, the problem with telinit is getting to a terminal in time to prevent gdm from starting in the first place.
[06:50] <Ademan> i might give it a shot though
[06:50] <zooyork20021> can someone help me? i dont know how to install a program i downloaded
[06:51] <mgmuscari> zooyork20021: there's probably a README or INSTALL file included
[06:51] <Ademan> zooyork20021: you generally don't download the software you want to install, what is the program?
[06:51] <maco> Ademan: you can edit the boot  line from the live cd splash screen
[06:51] <rockstarrem> zooyork20021 what program, link?
[06:51] <bazhang> zooyork20021, what program downloaded from where
[06:51] <maco> Ademan: maybe set "1" in there?
[06:51] <zooyork20021> its an audiodriver by realtek
[06:51] <nianswer> hello
[06:51] <onlinebro> MasterBob: so when u run from console there are no errors?
[06:51] <nianswer> i have a prob in my terminal
[06:51] <Blehk> Anyway have ideas why this is failing..? And if there's a solution (Pacemaker)
[06:51] <rockstarrem> can i have the link to where you downloaded it zooyork?
[06:51] <Blehk> http://pastie.org/668729
[06:51] <MasterBob> onlinebro, it just opens the app. see:
[06:52] <mgmuscari> zooyork20021: do you know which audio subsystem it's for?
[06:52] <MasterBob> psinetic@psinetic-desktop:~$ rhythmbox
[06:52] <MasterBob> psinetic@psinetic-desktop:~$
[06:52] <ous6> carbm2, there is no b43-fwcutterXXXXXX.deb. in var/cache/apt/archives
[06:52] <Ademan> maco: haha, you think that will work? i never saw any reference to an option to set runlevel
[06:52] <mgmuscari> zooyork20021: alsa, pulseaudio, etc
[06:52] <Blehk> ah, need to install heartbeat from source apparently.
[06:52] <Blehk> nevermind.
[06:52] <maco> Ademan: when booting a kernel from hard disk you can put "1" at the end of the kernel boot line...so why not?
[06:52] <onlinebro> MasterBob: try rhythmbox -d
[06:52] <Ademan> maco: i didn't know that... thanks! i'll definitely give it a shot
[06:52] <zooyork20021> i got it from http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=24&PFid=24&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
[06:53] <maco> Ademan: at least im pretty sure its the number 1, it might be the word single, but i think it the number 1, no quotes
[06:53] <Ademan> maco: alright cool, i'll google for a sec, and in absense of any confirmation, try both, thanks again
[06:53] <carbm2> ous6, ok, I don't know how to fix this.... You may need to get your hands temporarily on a wired NIC or a wireless card or USB wifi that you can use temp until you can install b43-fwcutter.
[06:54] <carbm2> ous6, I just think your going to need internet access to make this work.
[06:54] <MasterBob> onlinebro, http://pastebin.com/m300b4278
[06:54] <zooyork20021> i dont know what you mean by subsystem but im trying to get my headset that has a mic on it to work
[06:54] <mgmuscari> zooyork20021: so first you have to extract this somewhere
[06:54] <ous6> carbm2, how can i install b43-fwcutter
[06:54] <zooyork20021> ok i extracted it to my desktop
[06:54] <onlinebro> MasterBob: does your sound output work otherwise? other players?
[06:54] <mgmuscari> eh
[06:55] <mgmuscari> i would make a folder somewhere else and work from there
[06:55] <MasterBob> onlinebro, let me check
[06:55] <roger2> carbm2 i did a search for envy and it lists 4 packages, which is the one for video card
[06:55] <MK13> barbm2, i am editing /etc/network/interfaces
[06:55] <mgmuscari> ok, these drivers are for alsa
[06:55] <mgmuscari> ubuntu supports alsa
[06:55] <mgmuscari> extract the files, then read the Readme.txt file
[06:55] <mgmuscari> and install file
[06:55] <carbm2> MK13, can you pastebin your interfaces file?
[06:56] <carbm2> roger2, envy-gtk and go ahead and to envy-qt.  After it is install you go to Applications > System Tools > Envy and let it do its thing.
[06:56] <MasterBob> onlinebro, works on vlc and movie player, doesn't work on mplayer or rhythmbox
[06:57] <WilliamC2> It says "Failed to load NVIDIA Kernel Module"
[06:57] <carbm2> MK13, also pastebin "ifconfig"
[06:57] <mgmuscari> WilliamC2: did you update your nvidia driver? maybe the version number changed?
[06:57] <WilliamC2> No updates
[06:58] <CaptainMorgan> does anybody know how to automatically have the folder ~/PDF in lowercase? when you create through say, an export from OpenOffice, pdfs are put in this folder... any way to change it or customize this? I checked the individual apps themselves that I'm exporting from and while I was able to change the name of the location, it didn't prevent ~/PDF from being capitalized
[06:58] <onlinebro> MasterBob: interesting
[06:58] <MasterBob> sure is
[06:58] <MasterBob> i did some googling around and found a few things on it just freezing, but i didn't find any fixes
[07:00] <roger2> carbm2: is there a package that can make my sound card work
[07:01] <MasterBob> roger that's a pretty broad question
[07:01] <MK13> maco, this is my route -n output http://pastebin.org/48075
[07:01] <roger2> let me find the name of card i have,,one moment please
[07:02] <WilliamC2> http://www.pastebin.org/48076
[07:02] <WilliamC2> That's my error log
[07:02] <onlinebro> MasterBob: so the same mp3s that dont player in mplayer and rhythmbox do play in vlc?
[07:02] <MasterBob> yes
[07:02] <maco> MK13: and your ip address is in the 192.168.0.x range
[07:02] <carbm2> roger2, I'm sorry I wouldn't know.
[07:02] <maco> ?
[07:02] <xtoverus> thats weird
[07:02] <MK13> maco, yes, it is working now though O.o
[07:03] <maco> MK13: any chance thats an intel wireless card? ive had such "no packets moving" silliness for short periods after connecting at some cafes
[07:03]  * carbm2 is out.  hitting the sack.
[07:03] <WilliamC2> I installed my display driver on its own months ago
[07:03] <MK13> maco, it is an old wired nic
[07:04] <ous6> carbm, thanks for your help
[07:04] <carbm2> ous6, wish I could have got it working for you.  Still think your going to need temp internet access. Your welcome!
[07:04] <phix> Hey
[07:04] <LSD|Ninja> Is there a menubar-based system monitor for GNOME that uses dropdowns for extended info (instead of required seperate icons for each temperature/speed/whatever you want to monitor? Like istat for OS X: http://www.islayer.com/apps/istatmenus/
[07:05] <Psinetic> maco, you're ip, depending on your router, either starts at 192.168.1.2 or 192.168.1.100
[07:05] <phix> I am back to offer my Ubuntu experience, who is having some issues they want solved? :)  within topic of course
[07:05] <mgmuscari> Psinetic: or 192.168.0.xxx
[07:05] <Brando753> has ubuntu fixed the 2038 bug?
[07:05] <maco> Psinetic: or 192.168.0.x in MK13's case
[07:05] <xtoverus> I cant get any sound from my headphones unless the jack is 2/3 in the port, any more or less and I get nothing.. anyone else ever have the problem and maybe no how to fix it?
[07:05] <Psinetic> maco what kind of router do you have?
[07:05] <mgmuscari> Psinetic: or possible something totally different if his router is configured differently
[07:05] <maco> Psinetic: my connection is fine, k?
[07:05] <phix> LSD|Ninja: sure, just make one in python, should take you a few hours
[07:05] <maco> mgmuscari: or her, in my case
[07:05] <Psinetic> ok
[07:05] <Bhavic> Hey, Would anyone know how i can start up VNC on boot (just run the command "vncserver"
[07:05] <MK13> maco,carbm2 thanks for the help
[07:06] <maco> MK13: no problem
[07:06] <phix> xtoverus: depends on your sound hardware
[07:06] <phix> Bhavic: yes, put it in your boot script
[07:06] <Psinetic> onlinebro, i changed my nick from MasterBob to Psinetic, just a head'sup
[07:06] <onlinebro> thanks
[07:06] <Bhavic> phix: Where would the boot script be found?
[07:06] <phix> Bhavic: /etc/rc.local or create one in /etc/init.d and run update-rc.d
[07:06] <Bhavic> ah thanks!!!!
[07:06] <phix> Bhavic: there are several :)
[07:06] <one_> whats the difference between core 2 quad and quad core ?
[07:07] <xtoverus> phix, would that be in the sound manager?
[07:07] <phix> Bhavic: I recommand making a custom script and putting it in /etc/init.d then runing update-rc.d so it starts at boot time
[07:07] <Bhavic> Ahok.
[07:07] <kaptainkranium> So i'm trying to add Shiki-colors
[07:07] <phix> xtoverus: I am guessing it is hardware / driver related
[07:07] <Bhavic> Hmm custom script. Lets see, No idea how to lol!
[07:07] <Dr_Willis> Bhavic:  thers also ways to get vncserver tospawn as needed. but then you lose the  'persistant' running apps in the background feature that many people perfer.
[07:07] <kaptainkranium> so i went to ubuntu art
[07:07] <phix> Psinetic: why?
[07:08] <kaptainkranium> which told me to put this into my terminal:sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 2d79f61be8d31a30
[07:08] <Psinetic> phix, why what?
[07:08] <kaptainkranium> which I did
[07:08] <phix> Psinetic: why the nick change
[07:08] <kaptainkranium> and i'm not sure where to go from there
[07:08] <Psinetic> i was trying to change it to "here" but dunno how
[07:08] <Dr_Willis> Bhavic:  theres some guides on the running vnc at boot topic and some forum posts - depending on the details of what you want to do exactly
[07:08] <Psinetic> was testing around
[07:08] <Bhavic> Hmm ok thanks I'll have a look. I did have a look a while ago but found nothing useful
[07:08] <newklear85> hi, quick question... if i install 9.10 "RC", will it be updated to the final version in 4 days? or will i be stuck with the rc version?
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> Bhavic:  you dident look very much then. :) thers tons of info on vnc. but its a very flexiable tool. and a lot of people over look  some aspects of it.
[07:09] <mgmuscari> does somebody keep asking about the 2038 bug?
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> Bhavic:  you could just 'ssh' to the remote and start 'vncserver' when you need it.
[07:09] <Psinetic> phix, how do i change my status of "here"? oh, my usuall nick is "Psinetic" not MasterBob
[07:09] <Bhavic> Yea it's what id oatm.
[07:09] <phix> Psinetic: ah ok
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> newklear85:  it will Update... thats a fundamental feature of the package manager system...
[07:09] <phix> Psinetic: change your status?  in what?
[07:10] <Bhavic> But my customers can reboot from a button and i'd like it to start up automatically at boot ;P
[07:10] <Jimmio> newklear85: The packages will update, and I'm fairly sure it's considered a distribution upgrade... so yes. It will.
[07:10] <MrSchmo> when will 9.10 be out?
[07:10] <mgmuscari> Psinetic: are you referring to /away?
[07:10] <Psinetic> phix, in here. i'm currently set as "away" i want to be set as "here"
[07:10] <Psinetic> yes
[07:10] <Jimmio> MrSchmo: #ubuntu+1 for karmic. 29th.
[07:10] <phix> Psinetic: ok, type in /away
[07:10] <phix> Psinetic: in most IRC clients /away is a toggle command
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> Bhavic:  one (older guide) -> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/starting-vncserver-at-boot-using-rc.local-370993/
[07:10] <kaptainkranium> Can someone help me out with trying to install shiki-colors?
[07:11] <phix> (ie, it changes between the two depending on your current state)
[07:11] <Psinetic>  Already marked away: tired
[07:11] <Psinetic>  Usage: AWAY [<reason>], sets you away
[07:11] <phix> Psinetic: what IRC client?
[07:11] <Bhavic> Thank you Dr_Willis
[07:11] <Psinetic> xchat
[07:11] <mgmuscari> Psinetic: /away with no argument usually takes it off
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> Bhavic:  in rc.local (a line similer to ) -> you could use  'su - username vncserver &'
[07:11] <Psinetic> hmmm let me watch the memberlist as i do it
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> oops typo
[07:11] <Bhavic> Ahh
[07:11] <Psinetic> maybe i'm just not seeing it
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> Bhavic:  in rc.local (a line similer to ) -> you could use  'su -c  username vncserver &'
[07:12] <newklear85> thanks... so ill install ubuntu RC today and expect updates to make it the final version in 4 days ;)
[07:12] <Bhavic> ohhh
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> Bhavic:  that does NOT share the current desktop. :)
[07:12] <Psinetic> hi there phyrrus
[07:12] <phix> Psinetic: hmmmm
[07:12] <Bhavic> hmmok.
[07:12] <Jimmio> newklear85: You probably should just wait for release to be honest.
[07:12] <phix> Psinetic: Have you look at the documentation of xchat?
[07:12] <Psinetic> phix, nope, doesn't take me out of away mode
[07:12] <Psinetic> i'm new to irc really
[07:12] <phix> Psinetic: I don't use xchat any more (since they went commercial)
[07:13] <phix> Psinetic: I recommend using irssi in a screen
[07:13] <mgmuscari> can anybody think of any real advantages of going from 9.04 to 9.10?
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> There are free versions of xchat for windows still.
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> :)
[07:13] <Psinetic> irssi?
[07:13] <Jimmio> mgmuscari: It's new. New packages.
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> but i use weechat now for my main irc client.
[07:13] <phix> Psinetic: n?curses based irc client, I like it
[07:13] <Psinetic> onlinebro, any luck finding anything? i couldn't find it
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> mgmuscari:  its shiny.
[07:13] <mgmuscari> Jimmio: anything you're particularly excited about?
[07:13] <phix> Psinetic: have you used bitchX before?
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> mgmuscari:  this is linux.. upgrade or not.. it dosent matter to us. :)
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> Linux - 'Your OS , Your Way'
[07:14] <Psinetic> hahaha, no, i usually just use xchat as it's on the os
[07:14] <onlinebro> Psinetic: just some old bug in 8.04
[07:14] <phix> mgmuscari: Yes, 9.10 holds your hand more in certain areas than 9.04
[07:14] <mgmuscari> Dr_Willis: i'm just asking for opinions :P. i probably won't. the 8.10->9.04 transition was extremely rocky for me
[07:14] <onlinebro> Psinetic: it sounds like maybe an update took place and broke some files
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> mgmuscari:  i never upgrade, i do clean reinstalls
[07:14] <Psinetic> onlinebro, gayness >_>
[07:14] <phix> mgmuscari: it also includes newer version of programs too
[07:14] <mgmuscari> Dr_Willis: that's what i ended up doing last time...
[07:14] <Jimmio> mgmuscari: Mhm. New awesome package. New encrypted home directory feature
[07:14] <phix> mgmuscari: which means more "features" or bug fixed
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> mgmuscari:  ive been on 9.10 for over a month on 3 machines.. with very few issues
[07:14] <phix> fixes
[07:14] <rockstarrem> clean reinstalls on this version is looking the best way to go because of ext4
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> Yep. for full benifits of ext4  - clean install  is a good idea.
[07:15] <phix> Dr_Willis: Personally I am going to wait til next week before I do that :)
[07:15] <mgmuscari> no ext4 for me, thanks  much :p
[07:15] <rockstarrem> yeah
[07:15] <rockstarrem> lol
[07:15] <phix> what is wrong with ext4?/
[07:15] <newklear85> i hope flash videos run smoothly... that was the main reason i always went back to windows. flash is important enough :P
[07:15] <mgmuscari> phix: my filesystems were ext4 until a few weeks ago
[07:15] <rockstarrem> they should run fine using adobess
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> given the hassles ive heard of people having with other filesystems , ive have heard of very few with ext4
[07:15] <phix> hey, what ever happened to that guy who headed the reiserfs project? is he in jail for killing his wife?
[07:15] <Jimmio> I'm using ext4 already with 9.04..
[07:16] <Dr_Willis> phix:  somthing like that i recall. ;)
[07:16] <phix> mgmuscari: much noticable difference between the two?
[07:16] <newklear85> thanks guys, this chan rules
[07:16] <mgmuscari> phix: when they all started crashing terribly. i managed to remount everything in readonly mode, run out, buy a network storage device, and back things up before they finally went kaput
[07:16] <phix> Dr_Willis: so he is in jail? or he got off?
[07:16] <phix> mgmuscari: hehe, ok, so in other words, dont switch to ext4 yet
[07:16] <phix> I like ext3
[07:16] <Dr_Willis> phix:  i forget..
[07:16] <Psinetic> onlinebro, any ideas on how to fix this? :|
[07:17] <Dr_Willis> I find ext4 faster for the stuff i do.
[07:17] <phix> I used to use reiserfs but I didn't really see the point in using it now
[07:17] <mgmuscari> phix: i ran some diagnostic tests on the disk, no problems there... went back to ext3 and recovered my data, and i have no complaints about ext3
[07:17] <onlinebro> Psinetic: did you run an update recently?
[07:17] <phix> I only used it because ext3 wasn't conceived yet
[07:17] <nuccio> hello,boys,how are you?
[07:17] <Psinetic> onlinebro, i run sudo apt-get update everyday
[07:17] <maco> boys? there are boys on irc? there's no boys on the internet!
[07:17] <DigitalKiwi> reiserfs is nice
[07:17] <phix> Dr_Willis: I might have to google that, I will keep you updated P
[07:17] <phix> :P
[07:18] <Jimmio> How do I defrag ext4? Wikipedia says all partition types get fragmented.
[07:18] <mgmuscari> maco: i often wish that there were some gender-nonspecific pronouns in english to use :p
[07:18] <phix> Dr_Willis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Reiser :)
[07:18] <almoxarife> I can't find a fix link for karmic on 'default alsa sound' volume applet is broke for now, any ideas?
[07:18] <maco> mgmuscari: "folks"?
[07:18] <phix> "On April 28, 2008, Reiser was convicted of the first degree murder of his wife, Nina Reiser, who disappeared in September 2006. On August 29, 2008, Reiser pled guilty to a reduced charge of second degree murder, as part of a settlement agreement that included disclosing the location of Nina Reiser's body."
[07:18] <wgrant> almoxarife: Karmic support is in #ubuntu+1
[07:18] <phix> wow
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> phix:  the reason i dont rember.. is that i never really cared. :P
[07:18] <bigmouth> I would rather use Extend 3 because it is compatile with BSD
[07:19] <phix> Dr_Willis: hehe
[07:19] <almoxarife> thnks
[07:19] <phix> ok, back on topic for me :)
[07:19] <mgmuscari> maco: there's one, but there isn't really one to replace he/she
[07:19] <mgmuscari> in french one might say, "on"
[07:19] <DigitalKiwi> phix: he allegedly murdered his wife and allegedly is in jail!
[07:19] <kic3k> hi all
[07:19] <phix> DigitalKiwi: according to wikipedia
[07:19] <mgmuscari> which is closest to the english colloquial usage of "they"
[07:19]  * Psinetic is tired and needs helping setting up pastebin to a subdomain on his website >_>
[07:19] <DigitalKiwi> still a good filesystem
[07:19] <maco> mgmuscari: "one"? "they" was used gender-neutral singular for several hundreds of years, even by shakespeare. in #ubuntu-women, some of us are partial to "ze"
[07:20] <maco> mgmuscari: though this is ot for this channel
[07:20] <mgmuscari> "ze," i'll try to remember that one
[07:20] <ous6> need help with wireless issue
[07:20] <phix> brb
[07:21] <mgmuscari> frankly, i consider natural languages to be a nuisance due to their ambiguous grammars
[07:21] <bigmouth> What chipsets ar you useing ous6 ?
[07:21] <mgmuscari> so really i'd rather just have some spoken language that could always be parsed in a deterministic way... ah well...
[07:21] <newklear85> last question :) - 32 or 64 bit for linux noob?
[07:22] <onlinebro> brb
[07:22] <onlinebro> 1sec
[07:22] <mgmuscari> newklear85: 64 bit flash player is terrible in linux
[07:22] <ous6> broadcom
[07:22] <newklear85> alright
[07:23] <Brando753> has ubuntu fixed the 2038 bug?
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> mgmuscari:  really? ive heard a great many 9.10 users using it with great success..
[07:23] <mgmuscari> Brando753: the 2038 bug is caused by dates represented in 32 bits
[07:23] <Brando753> Has Anyone seen this Article about Microsoft VS Linux, http://quaoar.ww7.be/ms_fud_of_the_year/569458-microsoft-attack-linux-retail-level-probably.html
[07:23] <wgrant> mgmuscari: It's OK in my case.
[07:23] <bigmouth> newklear85: It depends on weather or not you have over 4gb physical RAN
[07:23] <mgmuscari> Dr_Willis: i'm just going on my personal experience with ext4... i won't be trying it again for a while. at least not until i have the time to mess around with things that may not work correctly
[07:24] <Dr_Willis> mgmuscari:  i was refering to 64bit flash
[07:24] <WilliamC2> It says "No usable monitors detected" or some such
[07:24] <newklear85> i have 3gb... so i won't see a difference in performance?
[07:24] <DigitalKiwi> mgmuscari: 64 bit flash works wonderfully for me
[07:24] <mgmuscari> Dr_Willis: oh. i have it working in my own installation, but i find it to be rather slow and it often freezes
[07:25] <DigitalKiwi> newklear85: if you compile and/or encode a lot you would benefit from 64 bit
[07:25] <newklear85> ok
[07:25] <mgmuscari> actually, i may be using a different flash plugin... let me check...
[07:25] <DigitalKiwi> since you are using ubuntu and had to ask I'll hazard a guess you don't compile a lot ;D
[07:25] <newklear85> nope
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> 64bit really helps me with my video reencodeing stuff.. :)
[07:26] <mojo_o> Brando753: it's not exactly incorrect information.. although the WoW part isn't 100% true
[07:26] <bigmouth> newklear85:  I happen to have AMD based system with 3gb running xubintu ATM
[07:27] <mgmuscari> i'm using the adobe flash plugin
[07:27] <newklear85> ok
[07:27] <newklear85> is it default?
[07:27] <Brando753> mojo_o: really? "Linux is Safer then Windows? :Myth"
[07:28] <DigitalKiwi> lolwut
[07:28] <newklear85> why is it a myth?
[07:28] <mgmuscari> mojo_o: i disagree with a lot of that garbage in those training slides
[07:28] <mojo_o> Brando753: didn't see that one but a lot of what they are saying is true
[07:28] <Brando753> newklear85: that answer was what windows said about linux
[07:29] <mojo_o> Brando753: there are a number of things that aren't true though, i see that
[07:29] <fcuk112> what's the best way to get 2.1 sound from a 5.1 soundcard?
[07:29] <Brando753> mojo_o: "Linux updates and upgrades are easy : Myth"
[07:29] <DigitalKiwi> but some are true, and thus it is not 100% inaccurate, is what you're saying?
[07:29] <maco> hahaah no "authorized support" for linux? ok so what's canonical do again?
[07:29] <mgmuscari> mojo_o: there are at least two conflicting pieces of information: in one part of the article it states that with linux you may not receive regular updates. in another part, it states that the sheer number of linux updates pushed to the user is too overwhelming for the average user.
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> maco:  its not authorized by MS.. :)
[07:29] <DigitalKiwi> what package manager are they using?
[07:29] <maco> DigitalKiwi: who made them god?
[07:30] <mgmuscari> maybe they're referring to DSL
[07:30] <DigitalKiwi> LFS ;D
[07:30] <xiambax> Maco, The masses who buy computers with their software on it?
[07:30] <mojo_o> mgmuscari: i hadn't finished yet, i saw the first few slides :p
[07:30] <xiambax> So Consumers?
[07:30] <Brando753> no they referenced ubuntu in the slides
[07:30] <sifo> hello
[07:31] <maco> hmm and i didnt think mp3 player support was down to 1/3. in fact, i havent found one that wont work. must've made these slides in 2006, before libmtp was written
[07:31] <DigitalKiwi> no experience with dpkg and co. but on my computer updates are generally pretty easy...
[07:31] <mgmuscari> Brando753: yeah, i noticed that... basically, that training class is complete misinformation. but then again, so is almost all corporate training. i know that from my days at A large Telephone and Telecommunications company
[07:31] <DigitalKiwi> at&t? clever
[07:32] <Brando753> mgmuscari:  I Find it a bit strange since Best Buy Sell Ubuntu Install Disks
[07:32] <zack> hi
[07:32] <mgmuscari> DigitalKiwi: for the record, i made no mention of that company that you just mentioned
[07:32] <DigitalKiwi> ok
[07:32] <onlinebro> sorry Psinetic i wasnt able to find much the only thing i could suggest is checking the ubuntu forums
[07:33] <raven_> hello
[07:33] <maco> Brando753: they dont anymore
[07:33] <maco> pulled em 6 months back
[07:33] <joot> !hello
[07:33] <Brando753> maco: really?
[07:33] <DigitalKiwi> dell dropped the non-windows platforms iirc about a month ago?
[07:33] <maco> DigitalKiwi: no that was hp
[07:34] <maco> DigitalKiwi: dell lets you select ubuntu from its filter list on the lef side of the home laptop page
[07:34] <DigitalKiwi> I didn't even know hp ever sold non-windows
[07:34] <mojo_o> Brando753: i'm surprised they didn't try to compare themselves to osx
[07:34] <mgmuscari> i'd like to be able to buy systems without any operating system installed on them
[07:34] <maco> DigitalKiwi: yah the HP Mini Mi had Ubuntu w/ a custom UI they contracted from Canonical
[07:34] <Brando753> mojo_o: I am to
[07:34] <arquebus> is today daylight savings time change?
[07:34] <mgmuscari> since i always end up wiping them as soon as i buy them anyway
[07:35] <Sahkolihaa> In the UK it is.
[07:35] <arquebus> Sahkolihaa: ok, thx
[07:35] <Psinetic> ok, thanks onlinebro
[07:35] <Brando753> mgmuscari: y do you whipe what you paid for?
[07:35] <mojo_o> Brando753: microsoft basically have all the hardware and software manufactures developing for them, linux and to a degree apple get left out, so ms wins most arguments on that side, usually by clever wording
[07:36] <mikey> Does anyone know how to run a command at a certain time or if its off run in on boot? I want to set a screensaver for 9am-9pm and a blank screensaver after that-
[07:36] <mgmuscari> Brando753: i find preinstalled operating systems to be terribly annoying with their trial software and single very large partitions
[07:36] <DigitalKiwi> maco: I only see it on the mini
[07:36] <mgmuscari> mikey: use cron
[07:36] <DigitalKiwi> they used to have it on the vostros iirc and xps(i bought one)
[07:36] <maco> DigitalKiwi: "Mini Mi" v "Mini" is how you tell ubu v win
[07:36] <mikey> but cron doesn't work if the computer's off does it? mgmuscari
[07:36] <maco> DigitalKiwi: oh wait youre talking dell
[07:36] <DigitalKiwi> yes
[07:37] <maco> DigitalKiwi: i saw something other than mini with it last i looked
[07:37] <mgmuscari> mikey: you can't run a screensaver if the computer's off...
[07:37] <DigitalKiwi> maco: when was that though?
[07:37] <maco> month ago? maybe 2?
[07:37] <DigitalKiwi> it was only recently that I heard they dropped it
[07:37] <Bhavic> Dr_Willis: If i've created a /etc/init.d script. How do i use update-rc.d ?
[07:37] <mgmuscari> mikey: oh, i get what you're saying
[07:37] <mikey> mgmuscari, no but if I turn it on and it's between 9pm and 9am I want it changed automatically
[07:38] <DigitalKiwi> 02:33 < DigitalKiwi> dell dropped the non-windows platforms iirc about a month ago?
[07:38] <mgmuscari> mikey: you could put it in the crontab, and also create a boot script that checks what time it is and runs it if it's between 9am-9pm
[07:38] <DigitalKiwi> so 2 months ago they would have still had it if my info is right >.>
[07:38] <mgmuscari> cron might handle that... hmmm...
[07:38] <maco> aye
[07:38] <mikey> mgmuscari, cool nice idea
[07:38] <Brando753>  wait dell still sells non windows right?
[07:38] <maco> Brando753: apparentlyjust on the mini
[07:38] <DigitalKiwi> on laptops only on their minis
[07:39] <maco> Brando753: if youre lookin for ubuntu hardware, i recommend zareason.com
[07:39] <DigitalKiwi> and none on desktops
[07:39] <mgmuscari> mikey: you might be able to figure out a way to just put it in the crontab, but i can't think of it off the top of my head
[07:40] <Bhavic> Anyone know if i've created a script in /etc/init./vnc how do i use update-rc.d, the help file isn;t very useful :P
[07:40] <Brando753> maco: well no im not, i sell my own "ubuntu" high performance desktops
[07:41] <maco> Brando753: ohok
[07:41] <Brando753> maco: it does seem like dell sells ther N tower desktop with ubuntu
[07:41] <maco> Brando753: N = non-windows
[07:42] <zey> hi everybody
[07:42] <mgmuscari> Brando753: are you saying you build desktops, configure them with ubuntu on them, and then sell those to people?
[07:42] <qcjn> hi, i have a samba share that i ve done with mount.cifs //192.xxx.xxx.xxx do i unmount with umount.cifs //192.xxx.xxx.xxx ?
[07:42] <zey> may i ask you something
[07:42] <Brando753> mgmuscari: yes i do, and I plan to sell Laptops very soon
[07:42] <mgmuscari> qcjn: you can just umount the path where you mounted it, too
[07:42] <zey> about wireless on my laptop
[07:42] <mgmuscari> Brando753: how much profit do you typically net per sale?
[07:43] <longtom> Somehow I got it right that my pdf files try to open with Open Office.  Don't ask, how....  How could I convince them that kdf or Adobe reader would be more appropriate?  Any suggestions welcome.
[07:43] <qcjn> mgmuscari: yeah, but can i do it the way i just said, like same command as mount.cifs, but umount
[07:43] <maco> longtom: in gnome? right click > properties > open with...
[07:43] <mgmuscari> qcjn: i think so, i usually just umount /path/to/mnt
[07:44] <Brando753> mgmuscari: it depends on the computer but i dont charge much my $2500 computer would be equivalent to a $5000 alienware
[07:44] <mgmuscari> qcjn: on a related note, do you get error messages and long pauses re: CIFS not responding when you shut down?
[07:44] <mikey> mgmuscari, nah, looking at cron I don't see any mechanism at all to run things at a certain time at boot. I like the init.d idea though
[07:44] <longtom> maco:  Yes - I get that.  However, how can I change the default opening program, which appears to be OO right now.
[07:45] <mgmuscari> Brando753: i need to find a good way to finance parts for my car :D. i've been thinking about building applications for people but building desktops would probably require less long term support
[07:45] <maco> longtom: thats how...
[07:45] <mgmuscari> mikey: i say go for init.d then
[07:45] <raven_> hello - i want to swich the monitor from the vga-connector to the svideo - how can i do that? need the desktop ONLY on svideo-connector
[07:45] <maco> longtom: insted of right click > open with, go to right click> PROPERTIES > open with to change the default
[07:45] <Brando753> mgmuscari: well you would think so until they do something stupid and call you asking what to do :P
[07:46] <mgmuscari> Brando753: i was thinking of building PoS systems for restaurants and mechanics
[07:46] <longtom> maco:  Live can be so easy...  thank you very much!
[07:46] <mgmuscari> Brando753: do you charge for support?
[07:46] <gigo> what is the total number of supported packages in Ubuntu?
[07:46] <maco> longtom: no prob
[07:46] <Brando753> mgmuscari: I do that as well i sell a $300 system with POS software installed in it
[07:46] <mgmuscari> Brando753: did you write the software?
[07:47] <Brando753> mgmuscari: no, but it was built for DOS enviroments so i Set Up a DOSBOX on the computer
[07:47] <mgmuscari> i had a restaurant owner ask me to make her a website and pos system... i'm considering doing it over winter break but i'm worried about having to support her down the road
[07:47] <DigitalKiwi> THIS HARDWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.... =D
[07:48] <mgmuscari> DigitalKiwi: :p that might hamper my sales a bit
[07:48] <Dr_Willis> Its amazing the license stuff software makers use..
[07:48] <DigitalKiwi> MIT licensed hardware ftw?
[07:48] <Brando753> mgmuscari: well the POS networks so if an order is placed at the Register, a second POS machine will  show the order in the Kitchen :P
[07:48] <zoidfarb> Hey, I'd like to install Ubuntu but preserve an existing /home partition. Is there anything special I need to do?
[07:48] <mgmuscari> Brando753: i was thinking of going with java and mysql
[07:49] <Brando753> zoidfarb: ya you set up a / partition ans set your partition that holds the home file as /home
[07:49] <mgmuscari> zoidfarb: make sure you don't use the autopartitioner when you install, and you might want to remove hidden config files in your /home that could cause problems when you switch distros
[07:49]  * DigitalKiwi always thinks piece of crap* for POS before realizing they probably mean point of sale
[07:49] <mgmuscari> DigitalKiwi: you got it
[07:50] <Brando753> mgmuscari: you will find that a pain in the ass truthfully
[07:50] <mgmuscari> Brando753: java/mysql?
[07:50] <DigitalKiwi> so I read it as "they want a webserver on a crappy computer" and was like, "well that's stupid"
[07:50] <Brando753> I had tried mysql and java it has problems though
[07:50] <mgmuscari> Brando753: i've never had problems with either :)
[07:50] <Brando753> mgmuscari: ya but in a POS enviroment its not the best
[07:51] <mgmuscari> Brando753: i'd say it depends on the scale of the system and how well the software is written
[07:51] <extor> What's a quick and easy way to setup failover and redundancy with two bind namerservers? Make each one a master and slave to the other? And give them multiple IPs?
[07:51] <Brando753> mgmuscari: the Dos program i use is excellent because it works for every type of business
[07:51] <mgmuscari> Brando753: does it support touchscreens?
[07:51] <Brando753> mgmuscari: i just implement DOSBOX to run it
[07:51] <Brando753> its comand line
[07:52] <Brando753> mgmuscari: however its simple comand line
[07:52] <mgmuscari> Brando753: i think i can picture what you're using
[07:52] <roger2> hello, I installed ENVY and selected an ATI driver, restarted, and have a messed up display..it will not boot into the desktop, stays frozen..how do i undo ENVY changes
[07:52] <Brando753> mgmuscari: you type in a product / quantity / and it does the rest :P
[07:52] <mojo_o> it's black or perhaps blue...
[07:52] <mgmuscari> the lady i was talking to definitely wants something with a robust GUI... hence thinking about java
[07:52] <zoidfarb> mgmuscari, thanks. If I have a hidden .folder with config settings for an app that Ubuntu doesn't include, there won't be any conflict, right? Those settings just won't be used?
[07:53] <mgmuscari> zoidfarb: they'll just sit there
[07:53] <stanley> Hi Everybody. For some reason I have sound in skype, but nothing else. MP3's have no sound and neither does anything I listen to through firefox
[07:53] <zoidfarb> mgmuscari, what about like, firefox? Will my bookmarks be preserved? Or will Ubuntu overwrite those with a new .mozilla folder?
[07:53] <mgmuscari> maybe? not sure
[07:54] <mgmuscari> back them up first i guess
[07:54] <mgmuscari> brb
[07:54] <mojo_o> zoidfarb: i don't think so. i think it's created by firefox first run if needed
[07:54] <Brando753> mgmuscari: here is what it looks like http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/8905/posj.jpg
[07:54] <madsj> what's the terminal command for upgrading the distribution ?
[07:54] <mojo_o> zoidfarb: could be wrong though >_>
[07:55] <mgmuscari> X server crashed
[07:55] <mojo_o> Brando753: it *is* blue!
[07:55] <mgmuscari> didn't crash; some weird problem with ati drivers where everything suddenly shifts about 3 inches to the left...
[07:55] <zoidfarb> cool. thanks for the advice everyone. I'm off!
[07:56] <Ademan> is there a way to discover the filesystem of a block device?
[07:56] <dracnoc> madsj: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[07:56] <mgmuscari> Brando753: i was thinking about messing around with the google web toolkit thing
[07:56] <raven_> hello - i want to swich the monitor from the vga-connector to the svideo - how can i do that? need the desktop ONLY on svideo-connector
[07:56] <Brando753> mojo_o: yes its blue
[07:56] <Blehk> Anyone have luck getting pacemaker to work on ubuntu karmic?
[07:57] <isola73dsh33p> hello
[07:57] <madsj> dracnoc: thanks :-) I was looking for a "dist-upgrade"-command
[07:57] <mojo_o> Brando753: well the only other choice is black, unless you want to go scary o_O
[07:57] <Brando753> mgmuscari: you can try it
[07:57] <isola73dsh33p> i have a question to ask
[07:57] <iceroot> !ask | isola73dsh33p
[07:57] <mgmuscari> Brando753: i basically hate gui development... i would use c++ but i really, really, really don't want to mess around with writing guis
[07:57] <isola73dsh33p> ok..
[07:58] <mgmuscari> !ubottu
[07:58] <Brando753> mgmuscari: i agree i used to use VB when i used windows since switching to ubuntu i havnt found a good alt
[07:58] <mgmuscari> Brando753: D: my memory is scarred by VB6
[07:58] <iceroot> Brando753: python
[07:58] <isola73dsh33p> i run totem from terminal and get deprecation warning saying "sha module is deprecated; ; use the hashlib module instead" what does it means?
[07:58] <ziroday> Brando753: quickly+python+pygtk
[07:58] <mojo_o> mgmuscari: dos was good like that, you write the gui.
[07:58] <mgmuscari> iceroot: i think he's referring to creating window forms
[07:59] <Brando753> iceroot: isnt that a script language more then a program language
[07:59] <ziroday> Brando753: (oh and glade)
[07:59] <mgmuscari> Brando753: there are some great programs written in python
[07:59] <ziroday> Brando753: python is much more of a programming language then VB will ever be
[07:59] <calebH> a package I'm installing depends on postfix, and dpkg wants me to configure postfix to install it, but I don't want to mess with setting up postfix - recommended setting?
[07:59] <Brando753> mgmuscari: but do the shells work like VB in the gui process
[07:59] <Blehk> VB was a programming language? I thought it was a mistake.
[07:59] <iceroot> Brando753: lol, python is much more powerfull then VB
[07:59] <isola73dsh33p> ...
[08:00] <Brando753> but how is the gui design, VB had good GUI designing software
[08:00] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: that means that the old module is no longer supported
[08:00] <iceroot> Brando753: if you want good GUI-design, use Qt :)
[08:00] <isola73dsh33p> where could i find the new module?
[08:00] <Blehk> Brando753: you mean VISUAL STUDIO had good GUI software
[08:00] <ziroday> Brando753: take a look at quickly, it intergrates all the different components (glade, python, pygtk) together
[08:00] <Brando753> Blehk: that and VB Express
[08:00] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: judging from what you're seeing there i think you'd have to change the way totem works
[08:01] <Blehk> Vb express is visual studio without all the goodies.
[08:01] <mgmuscari> ziroday: in aptitude repos?
[08:01] <iceroot> Brando753: also python and Qt are running on every system not only windows like VB
[08:01] <isola73dsh33p> i'm not sure how. I'm new to linux..
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> isola73dsh33p:  if its a warning -its not really a problem
[08:02] <Blehk> And python rocks, and vb ... well. vb is terrible.
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> isola73dsh33p:  its a warning to the programers that the stuff needs tobe changed soon.
[08:02] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: you may not want to bother with it then... warnings aren't a huge deal
[08:02] <Brando753> ya but in vb it was easy to write a program with a gui, in MONODEVELOP i have to write the code then use a seperate GUIprogram
[08:02] <isola73dsh33p> actually there's a problem with my totem when i play in fullscreen mode
[08:02] <iceroot> Blehk: correct
[08:02] <moomeg> I have lost the bar at the bottom of my Ubunt (64) and when I minimise programmes they just vanish. I have been trying for 3 weeks now to find it but I can't. Anyone have any ideas please?
[08:03] <mgmuscari> moomeg: you need to re-add that panel most likely
[08:03] <iceroot> moomeg: right click on the bar, add mini program, then choose the task bar
[08:03] <isola73dsh33p> when i play in full mode, ubuntu crashed...
[08:03] <moomeg> That's what I thought but I'm completely lost trying to find it to add.
[08:03] <isola73dsh33p> i'm not sure what's the problem
[08:03] <kandjar> hi there;
[08:03] <mobi-sheep> !resetpanel | moomeg
[08:03] <isola73dsh33p> its says wlan0 not found or something
[08:04] <ziroday> mgmuscari: no, its in karmic
[08:04] <mgmuscari> moomeg: check out AWN - it's a neat dock that resembles the NexT/Mac OS dock
[08:04] <roger2> does anyone have any guidance how I can undo an ENVY driver install?
[08:04] <mgmuscari> ziroday: well, there's an argument for upgrading to karmic...
[08:04] <moomeg> thanks I'll try now.
[08:05] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: wlan0 not found means that you don't have a wireless device there
[08:05] <thiscomputer> i want to make invisable some of my applications menu options wheres the application for this
[08:05] <kandjar> one quick question: i m installing the 9.10 server beta; partition wise: it set ext4 by default; but i heard of some instability with this new model. which is the advise one?
[08:05] <ziroday> mgmuscari: its out in a week, its a good idea to wait :)
[08:05] <iceroot> kandjar: #ubuntu+1
[08:05] <isola73dsh33p> eh, but my wireless works fine.. :/
[08:05] <Brando753> tried installing quickly, it wont install
[08:05] <mgmuscari> kandjar: if you're uncertain about ext4, use ext3
[08:06] <moomeg> and I'll look into that dock too. No idea how it vanish - I'm guessing it was 'toddler typing' she creeps up on the keyboard and does all sorts of damge. Thanks people.
[08:06] <Brando753> whats diffrent in ext4
[08:06] <kandjar> mgmuscari: :) i was wondering if you guys heard about such or such issue with it?
[08:06] <isola73dsh33p> but every time i get into fullscreen mode, my computer crashed
[08:06] <mobi-sheep> Does anybody here know update-rc.d + /etc/rc.local ? I'm trying to add a daemon to boot startup.
[08:06] <mgmuscari> i'm not sure why totem would complain about wlan0 not being found
[08:06] <mgmuscari> mobi-sheep: read about the system 5 startup architecture
[08:07] <isola73dsh33p> it just happen when i'm in fullscreen mode while playing a video
[08:07] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: sounds more like a graphics driver problem to me
[08:07] <isola73dsh33p> to be specific avi, mp4 files
[08:07] <thiscomputer> im on xubuntu 904 by the way
[08:07] <calebH> mobi-sheep: try reading the 'boot' man page
[08:07] <isola73dsh33p> my compiz works fine.. :/
[08:07] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: well that sounds like a codec issue
[08:07] <isola73dsh33p> i've installed fglrx
[08:07] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: also, just because one thing works, doesn't mean all things will
[08:08] <mgmuscari> and btw - fglrx is full of headaches :)
[08:08] <mgmuscari> i have problems with it regularly
[08:08] <isola73dsh33p> ok, that means i installed the wrong codec?
[08:08] <mostly_useless> so, what is ubuntu? is it edible?
[08:08] <mgmuscari> could just be that your system is barfing on fglrx + compiz + trying to play fullscreen video
[08:08] <rockstarrem> lol
[08:09] <WhiteCrow1> hi guys , i need a mail client , can some body tell my what's the best mail client ?
[08:09] <mostly_useless> can I use it to exercise? can I use it to pick up chicks?
[08:09] <yyl> hi
[08:09] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: i have an ati card as well and it doesn't like fullscreen video
[08:09] <rockstarrem> WhiteCrowl, its all preference but i like Thunderbird. sudo apt-get install thunderbird
[08:09] <isola73dsh33p> hahaha
[08:09] <madsj> dracnoc: it only a few packages to upgrade;
[08:09] <mgmuscari> mostly_useless: you can install pretty much anything you want from the package repositories
[08:09] <madsj> and the kernel is not 2.6.31
[08:09] <mgmuscari> mostly_useless: install python and it'll make you omnipotent
[08:10] <isola73dsh33p> does rendering method could cause this?
[08:10] <mostly_useless> mgmuscari: is there an asain chicks package?
[08:10] <mgmuscari> WhiteCrow1: i enjoy Thunderbird
[08:10] <rockstarrem> mostly_useless: i can confirm there is ;)
[08:10] <mostly_useless> mgmuscari: I like the way you think, sir.
[08:10] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: fglrx isn't fully compatible with compiz
[08:10] <isola73dsh33p> because i don't have rendering method..
[08:10] <ranjan> hi there i am having an issue in confering dns because i got four valuses  i am confused and i am not able to add other values and presently i am using  ubuntu 9.04 ... so pleaze help
[08:10] <mostly_useless> rockstarrem: rock on.
[08:10] <dracnoc> madsj: then it shouldn't take too long to do :)
[08:10] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: specifically there have been problems with fglrx not implementing dri2, which compiz really likes to have
[08:10] <isola73dsh33p> this means i should uninstall compiz?
[08:10] <WhiteCrow1> mgmuscari: ok tns  guys i go to install
[08:11] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: i use compiz
[08:11] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: my system mostly works. it stutters on full screen hd video
[08:11] <Brando753> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:11] <raven_> what are the files for kernel and ramdisk on an ubuntu-install-cd?
[08:11] <madsj> dracnoc: yeah :-) but it seems that it didn't upgrade the things it was supposed to
[08:12] <isola73dsh33p> which file format will your video works?
[08:12] <isola73dsh33p> in fullscreen
[08:12] <mgmuscari> does the install cd use isolinux? i forget
[08:12] <moomeg> moomeg@moomeg-desktop:~$ conftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel/ && killall gnome-panel
[08:12] <moomeg> bash: conftool: command not found
[08:12] <moomeg> moomeg@moomeg-desktop:~$
[08:12] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: i don't really watch video on my machine
[08:12] <thiscomputer> does anyone know how i can make some of my menu options invisable on xubuntu 904
[08:12] <moomeg> sorry having a dumb morning - what am I doing wrong
[08:12] <iceroot> moomeg: gconf
[08:12] <Dr_Willis> isola73dsh33p:  you can just disable compiz.  if you want
[08:12] <mgmuscari> moomeg: sudo apt-get install conftool, maybe
[08:13] <ranjan> hi there i am having an issue in confering dns because i got four valuses  i am confused and i am not able to add other values and presently i am using  ubuntu 9.04 ... so pleaze help
[08:13] <kismet> hey, i have problems with my banshee player.. when i switch to the next track the cpu goes to 100% for almost 30 seconds
[08:13] <isola73dsh33p> no compiz its the same as windows.. T_T
[08:13] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: try running metacity --replace from a command line, and then see if your video will work in full screen mode
[08:13] <kismet> and during playing music my avarage cpu usage is 10%
[08:13] <dracnoc> madsj: have you got all the repositories selected? Use "Software Sources" in your Admin menu and check.
[08:13] <isola73dsh33p> ok.. i'll try it now
[08:13] <moomeg> tar - i was blind to that one :o)
[08:13] <kismet> or higher
[08:13] <iceroot> moomeg: mgmuscari its calles gconftool
[08:13] <mostly_useless> compiz is a beast that can not be fed. be forwarned ye opensource users.
[08:13] <Sahkolihaa> oO
[08:13] <ranjan> hi there i am having an issue in confering dns because i got four valuses  i am confused and i am not able to add other values and presently i am using  ubuntu 9.04 ... so pleaze help
[08:13] <mojo_o> kismet: that's high
[08:13] <mgmuscari> mostly_useless: i've tamed my compiz
[08:14] <Sahkolihaa> My Compiz runs nicely too.
[08:14] <mojo_o> kismet: unless you're on a 586..
[08:14] <kismet> mojo_o: yeah thats what i thought as well .. but i can not figure out why
[08:14] <Dr_Willis> mgmuscari:  over came your CUBE addiction?
[08:14] <mojo_o> kismet: tried a different player?
[08:14] <mostly_useless> mgmuscari: then you are the chosen one spoken of in the man lore. I am at your service, my lord.
[08:14] <kismet> mojo_o: lol no i am on a laptop with 2.13 ghz
[08:14] <mgmuscari> Dr_Willis: i end up grouping and tabbing things more frequently than i actually use the cube
[08:14] <isola73dsh33p> compiz the cause.. =_=
[08:14] <Aleksandrit> any software for recording fragments of online-video-transmission?
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> mgmuscari:  i never have figured out the group/tabing features of compiz..  i did find a nice setting to put ROOT: in the title of all windows running stuff as root. :)
[08:15] <isola73dsh33p> my totem works fine in fullscreen in metacity
[08:15] <kismet> mojo_o: tried amarok... but amarok won't play my music at all.. if i go to sound config and play test sound i hear something
[08:15] <calebH> mostly_useless: compiz is 100% stable on my system too - I can't live without my compiz
[08:15] <mostly_useless> calebH: well, everyone has their poison. mine is ketamine and meth.
[08:15] <raven_> what are the files for kernel and ramdisk on an ubuntu-install-cd?
[08:15] <roger2> hello..looking for guidance..how do i uninstall/undo ENVY changes made to my video driver..?
[08:16] <mgmuscari> dr_willis: the grouping and tabbing is cool. i usually group all my internet windows together, then all my consoles together, and all my IDE windows together. then i use maximumize to make them all fit in appropriate spaces, and i can alt tab between groups, then flip between windows in the group. very handy
[08:16] <mojo_o> kismet: i use mpd, and that's console so you're probably not interested in that kind of thing
[08:16] <isola73dsh33p> btw, thank for answering. God my video working fine in metacity..
[08:16] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: disable compiz when you want to watch fullscreen video then - you can install the Compiz Fusion Icon to select window managers easily
[08:16] <XGenster> Greetings all
[08:16] <kismet> mojo_o: no.. i would like to use that to manage my music and sync my ipod
[08:17] <mgmuscari> mojo_o: check out the Ario client for MPD
[08:17] <isola73dsh33p> thanks mgmuscari :D
[08:17] <calebH> kismet: is there some reason why you're not using Rhythmbox?
[08:17] <mgmuscari> isola73dsh33p: np
[08:17] <nutterpc> OGMRip, such a lovely program
[08:17] <mojo_o> kismet: you could try audacious
[08:17] <mgmuscari> mojo_o: btw, i love my MPD setup, and i love having mpod to control it with on my iphone :D
[08:18] <mojo_o> mgmuscari: theres a python gui i've been using for mpd if i get the urge ;-)
[08:18] <mgmuscari> kismet: i was using xmms2 and Exaile to manage my ipod for a while
[08:18] <kismet> calebH: yeah i didn't liked  it ....
[08:19] <mikey> well that's annoying gconftool works fine until you try and put it in cron or run it with sudo -u
[08:19] <calebH> kismet: I used to feel the same way, but it literally "just works" the best on gnome
[08:19] <kismet> mojo_o: audacious....
[08:19] <lessshaste> in grub2, I want to change the default kernel that is booted. When I look at /etc/default/grub it doesn't list the numbers of the kernels. How do I know which is which?
[08:19] <Ashvala> Hey!
[08:19] <mojo_o> kismet: it's just a gui player
[08:19] <calebH> kismet: and I use it to sync my ipod classic 120GB, and manage my collection of 15000+ songs (it seems to handle it all very well)
[08:19] <Ashvala> Can I install jaunty on my / partition without touching /home and stuff?
[08:19] <kismet> mojo_o: okay have to google it
[08:19] <mgmuscari> lessshaste: they're listed in order
[08:20] <mgmuscari> Ashvala: yes
[08:20] <mojo_o> kismet: http://audacious-media-player.org/
[08:20] <Ashvala> mgmuscari: How?
[08:20] <mgmuscari> Ashvala: as long as /home is on a separate partition...
[08:20] <Ashvala> mgmuscari: It sure is
[08:20] <lessshaste> mgmuscari, where? They are not listed in that file even though that is where you have to set the DEFAULT variable it seems
[08:20] <thiscomputer> k, ill ask some other time
[08:20] <thiscomputer> bye
[08:20] <kismet> calebH: okay... i give that a try again.. but nameing songs wasen't that great with rhytmbox
[08:20] <mgmuscari> Ashvala: when you run the installer, don't use the autopartitioner. set up your partitions manually. just point /home to that partition
[08:20] <lessshaste> GRUB_DEFAULT=6 .. how do I know what 6 refers to?
[08:21] <Ashvala> mgmuscariL Links?
[08:21] <mostly_useless> prey to the grub gods, and patiently await their response.
[08:21] <Ashvala> mgmuscari: Any links*?
[08:21] <mgmuscari> Ashvala: if you're coming from a different version you may have annoying configuration problems when different versions of things read configs from your /home... but i do it that way every time i changed
[08:21] <mgmuscari> *change
[08:21] <mgmuscari> Ashvala: none off the top of my head... just google it i guess
[08:21] <calebH> kismet: agreed.  I use exfalso for that (which belongs to another nice music player called quodlibet
[08:21] <Ashvala> mgmuscari: I am on hardy atm.
[08:21] <calebH> kismet: http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/
[08:22] <mojo_o> mgmuscari: i had no idea you could control it with your phone :o
[08:22] <Ashvala> mgmuscari> and it is broken, I just want to reinstall
[08:22] <mgmuscari> mojo_o: yeah, it's great! i run two mpd servers in my house connected to stereos
[08:22] <qetuR> hey! can i share my music on my ubuntu server so it can be visible when you use iTunes on a Mac?
[08:22] <kismet> calebH: so you are using two different player
[08:22] <mgmuscari> mojo_o: all running from the same database on my NFS
[08:22] <qetuR> I need to install DAAP in some way, and then share the folders where my music is
[08:22] <zirconiumks> hey cud anybody tell me the repository for lxde on jaunty, cudnt get it as I am running xubuntu
[08:22] <lessshaste> I could just guess and reboot a lot
[08:22] <lessshaste> doesn't seem ideal
[08:22] <calebH> kismet: no, exfalso is a pretty sweet mp3 tagger, and file renamer.  I've found a really sweet setup using it to tag my music files, and rhythmbox for playback and ipod syncing
[08:23] <kismet> calebH: why not just the last one
[08:23] <mgmuscari> mojo_o: i use my laptop and/or iphone to control it... i set it up a few weeks ago and it's fantastic
[08:23] <luke-jennings>  I have an encrypted home partition which is on a different partition to my root .If I do a clean install how do i set ubuntu to decrypt my current encrypted home?
[08:23] <mikey> What's the difference between just running gconftool-2 --owner=mikey --type string --set /apps/gnome-screensaver/mode "blank-only" as a user and running sudo -u myuser gconftool-2 --owner=mikey --type string --set /apps/gnome-screensaver/mode "blank-only"?
[08:23] <kismet> i see
[08:23] <kismet> calebH: i see
[08:23] <nano-> Hi, I'm not able to start after a karmic upgrade. mountall says "waiting for" on all the partitions. How to fix?
[08:23] <mgmuscari> luke-jennings: be careful, you're going to need to keep the decryption key around
[08:23] <mojo_o> mgmuscari: can't wait till andriod phones become popular. that's going to open up a whole new world in phones.
[08:23] <calebH> kismet: mostly because I'm a sucker for the default/recommended apps and I rhythmbox does everything I want right out of the box (besides metadata tagging)
[08:23]  * Szajbus is now away: www.szajbus.eu Se me There
[08:24] <mgmuscari> mojo_o: i wish i had an android phone. i love my iphone but it's so dang expensive to pay for the service
[08:24] <luke-jennings> mgmuscari I have the dycryption key stored safely
[08:24] <mgmuscari> mojo_o: i should modify that statement and say i love my jailbroken iphone
[08:24] <mojo_o> mgmuscari: hehe
[08:24] <mgmuscari> luke-jennings: unfortunately that's as far as i can help you
[08:24] <blekos> hello, I am in dual boot "mode" when i log in to Ubuntu i get a msg that my HD has many bad sectors. However, when I run chkdsk from windows my HD appears to be healthy.
[08:25] <kismet> calebH: so i give rythmbox another try
[08:25] <blekos> Anyone has encountered this before?
[08:25] <luke-jennings> mgmuscari ok thank you
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> blekos:  using 9.10?
[08:25] <mgmuscari> blekos: don't use windows chkdsk to check linux partitions!!
[08:25] <blekos> yes
[08:25] <kismet> calebH: but even with rythmbox i had a pretty high cpu usage
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> blekos:  its just the smart montioring tools warning you
[08:25] <DaZ> mgmuscari: whyy
[08:25] <DaZ> everybody knows chkdsk rules.
[08:25] <blekos> yes, but I believe it refers to the disk as a whole
[08:25] <nano-> The UUID's mountall spits out are all correct, and the shell I end up in after pressing ESC can access all the partitions.
[08:26] <nano-> What's wrong?
[08:26] <mgmuscari> DaZ: windows knows nothing about ext2/ext3 or anything basically besides microsoft-supported filesystems
[08:26] <kaptainkranium> I'm having trouble trying to install Daimonin
[08:26] <blekos> so you think the bad sectors are in the Linux "section"?
[08:26] <mostly_useless> kaptainkranium: did you try asking nicely?
[08:26] <calebH> kismet: ah, I remember the other reason why I always come back to rhythmbox: it watches your music directory.  Most of the other players I always have to tell them when I've copied new music into my Music directory, but rhythmbox monitors additions, renames, and deletions - a HUGE plus for me...
[08:26] <calebH> kismet: what kind of setup do you have?
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> blekos:  the smart tools see the # of bad sectors on the whole disk tha have been flagged as 'bad' they could be anywerhe. if the # gets over a set limit. it gives the user a warning.
[08:27] <calebH> kismet: for hw I mean
[08:27] <kaptainkranium> Could someone pretty please help me try and install daimonin? I would greatly appreciate it :)
[08:27] <mgmuscari> blekos: it should tell you what partition it's finding bad sectors on, i think... what utility is this?
[08:27] <kismet> calebH: setup? i don't know default
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> Theres going to be dozens of people  with this warning once 9.10 gets released. :)
[08:27] <blekos> palimpsest Disk Utility
[08:27] <mgmuscari> kaptainkranium: your first statement of your problem was fine but you could provide more info if you want a helpful response
[08:28] <blekos> my problem is that I am under warranty. How I am going to justify to the manufacturer a HD replacement request?
[08:28] <calebH> kismet: what kind of processor (p4, dual core, etc), and how much memory does your computer have?
[08:29] <kaptainkranium> Well I guess I don't know where to start. I downloaded the "Binary Installer" from their website, and  now I have the client package sitting on my desktop and I'm not sure where to go from there
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> blekos:  they wont. a # of bad sectors is common.  The makers may have some specific tools they will want you to run to  verify the sectors. thats NOT the same as just filesystem checking the drive.
[08:29] <WhiteCrow1> hi
[08:29] <mgmuscari> blekos: i haven't used it, but i don't know what to tell you about bad sectors... maybe you could remove the hard disk, shake it until it no longer works, and then send it back :p
[08:29] <blekos> i c
[08:29] <kismet> calebH: intel centrino 2gb
[08:30] <WhiteCrow1> i want to set DNS ? where i can to set DNS in my sys ?
[08:30] <blekos> lol :P send them a "shaked" HD
[08:30] <mgmuscari> blekos: modern hard disks account for bad sectors up until a certain point
[08:30] <mgmuscari> the controller itself should actually be able to work around them...
[08:30] <kismet> i installed rythmbox and it is fine but stil... almost 10% of my cpu .. normal?
[08:31] <calebH> kismet: how big is your music collection?  I've only really experience high cpu usage with Rhythmbox on the initial indexing of my collection (which will be true of any program you use)
[08:31] <mgmuscari> kismet: well first of all i think you mean gHz, not gb
[08:31] <mostly_useless> kismet: more cpu% == more good.
[08:31] <mgmuscari> kismet: don't listen to mostly_useless
[08:31] <mojo_o> lol
[08:31] <kaptainkranium> I looked online, and there were a few forum topics saying to extract a certain file, but I don't believe that is the file I have, and if it was, I wouldn't know how to exrtract it
[08:31] <WhiteCrow1> some body help ? i need to know
[08:31] <kismet> calebH:  no i meant 2 GB memory
[08:31] <mgmuscari> kismet: but it also depends on the codec that's being used. compression and decompression are actually cpu intensive operations
[08:32] <kismet> calebH: my libary is 30gb big
[08:32] <mostly_useless> mgmuscari: I take offense sir, but I respect you for it.
[08:32] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  whats the exact file name?
[08:32] <mgmuscari> mostly_useless: don't say useless things :p
[08:32] <kismet> mgmuscari: how can i cange to an not that high cpu intensive one
[08:32] <mgmuscari> i for one prefer my applications to use *less* cpu %
[08:32] <mgmuscari> kismet: that all depends on the encoding of your files
[08:32] <xiambax> anyone know why i can see the sound jumping up and down on my mic input but its not playing through my speakers?
[08:32] <mgmuscari> kismet: 10% is perfectly acceptable
[08:33] <kaptainkranium> daimonin-client-0.9.7.1.x86.package
[08:33] <mgmuscari> xiambax: if it were playing on the speakers you'd likely get feedback. it's most likely set so that your speakers aren't acting as monitors for that input
[08:33] <mojo_o> xiambax: because the channel output is mute
[08:33] <calebH> kismet: have you let Rhythmbox index your collection all the way through?  This will usually eat up a lot of cpu cycles (high cpu usage), but once this is done and all your music is showing up in Rhythmbox subsequent starts are minimal cpu intensity
[08:33] <XGenster> qjoypad for 32bit, are there any deb files out there that i can install. building from source on a sunday aint kewl :-(
[08:33] <xiambax> im using it as a line in
[08:33] <xiambax> the channel is not putted
[08:33] <xiambax> mutter
[08:33] <kismet> mgmuscari: oh ok... so there is nothing wrong with the player....... i thought because i switched from windows and there it didn't used that much cpu
[08:33] <madsj> dracnoc: I'm running it from the commandline
[08:34] <kismet> calebH: i don't know... where can i check that?
[08:34] <hansonry> Hello
[08:34] <mgmuscari> kismet: no, there's nothing wrong with the player
[08:34] <hansonry> I just got a new laptop
[08:34] <dracnoc> madsj, how many files is it trying to upgrade?
[08:34] <mgmuscari> my cpu usage is usually 10%-20%
[08:34] <dreambox> any tools you propose to 'shrink' a win installation and add am Ubuntu?
[08:34] <hansonry> and cant seem to get my wireless card to work
[08:34] <mojo_o> xiambax: there's two volume controls for microphone input and two for line-in.
[08:34] <mgmuscari> dreambox: resizing an NTFS partition is risky business
[08:34] <madsj> dracnoc: 7
[08:35] <hansonry> are any of you guys familar with iwlwifi-1000-1.ucode
[08:35] <dreambox> so format.
[08:35] <hansonry> apparently I need that firmware
[08:35] <dracnoc> madsj, what are they?
[08:35] <mgmuscari> dreambox: windows vista will allow you to shrink the partition from within windows
[08:35] <kismet> mgmuscari: thanks for that information :D
[08:35] <kaptainkranium> Dr_Willis:daimonin-client-0.9.7.1.x86.package
[08:35] <mgmuscari> kismet: no problem
[08:35] <dreambox> mgmuscari aha?
[08:35] <xhua> hello
[08:35] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  .package is normally used by the 'autopackage' system   i recall.. you dont see it used very much i think
[08:35] <zooyork20021> i dont know how to install ventrilo, someone help?
[08:35] <mgmuscari> dreambox: i've done it using linux before, too. gparted might let you? not sure
[08:36] <hansonry> the card is an intel Wifi link 100 series
[08:36] <mostly_useless> zooyork20021: tell me of your hardship child, and I shall help.
[08:36] <calebH> click on "Music" in Rhythmbox, and look in the status bar (on the bottom left) to see your library size (#-of-songs,playback-time,GB-size).  If the numbers are pretty close to what you have in your music collection, and the numbers aren't increasing, then it's not adding/indexing your collection.
[08:36] <madsj> dracnoc: I upgraded them, but it should be a log somewhere
[08:36] <hansonry> The drivers are working
[08:36] <calebH> kismet: click on "Music" in Rhythmbox, and look in the status bar (on the bottom left) to see your library size (#-of-songs,playback-time,GB-size).  If the numbers are pretty close to what you have in your music collection, and the numbers aren't increasing, then it's not adding/indexing your collection.
[08:36] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  and the autopackage web site is being redone at this tim,e. :) they got no docs there.. so i dont even recall how you installthem
[08:36] <dreambox> mgmuscari : so is it risky/ have you done it?/ from inside windows? (vista)
[08:36] <hansonry> its just missing firmware acording to dmesg
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  see http://autopackage.org/howtoinstall.html
[08:37] <mgmuscari> dreambox: yes i have, but i'd back up important data first
[08:37] <dracnoc> madsj, /var/log/dist-upgrade?
[08:37] <mgmuscari> ok
[08:38] <mgmuscari> i'm exhausted... goodnight room
[08:38] <ranjan> how to configure multiple dns valuses  in ubuntu 9.04
[08:38] <kismet> calebH: i think rythmbox is doing something now.. so my whole system is on hold
[08:39] <ranjan> can any body can help me ... in configure multiple dns valuses  in ubuntu 9.04
[08:39] <ikonia> ranjan: what do you mean
[08:39] <calebH> kismet: which version of ubuntu/rhythmbox are you using?  That definitely shouldn't be happening...
[08:39] <ranjan> i am having multiple valuses of secondry dns
[08:40] <ranjan> and i am not able to fead this data in ubuntu 9.04
[08:40] <mobi-sheep> Hi -- What is the easiest way to add commands/scripts in the startup? I recently added something in /etc/rc.local -- It worked and I wish to run it under the username, not root? Suggestions would be nice.
[08:40] <madsj> dracnoc: ubuntu-minimal, friendly-recovery, system-services upstart-logd and startup-tasks were removed, and sysvinit was installed
[08:40] <isola73dsh33p> hey guys, can amarok be installed in gnome?
[08:40] <ranjan> ikonia: i am having multiple valuses of secondry dns and i am not able to fead this data in ubuntu 9.04
[08:40] <kismet> i think i clicked on let rythmbox manage your music libary... and now it is working at 100%... i use 9.04 ubuntu and  rythmbox version... can't see it right now
[08:41] <Dr_Willis> mobi-sheep:  use su username -c 'command'   I think....
[08:41] <mobi-sheep> isola73dsh33p: You can install Amarok in Gnome.
[08:41] <isola73dsh33p> thanks mobi
[08:41] <xhua> 这是我第一次使用xchat,可否向我介绍下，谢谢
[08:41] <ranjan> ikonia :: do you have any idea how to input those numerous values......
[08:41] <mobi-sheep> Dr_Willis: Will that command even work in /etc/rc.local? I'll try it though.
[08:41] <isola73dsh33p> one more thing, how do i uninstall vlc?
[08:42] <psycho_oreos> !cn | xhua
[08:42] <Dr_Willis> mobi-sheep:  yes...  thats how you doit. :) or a similer command to that..  seen it in many guides
[08:42] <hkuieagle> xhua,google it
[08:42] <jimbeam12> hey all wsup
[08:42] <xhua> thank you.
[08:42] <Blehk> Anyone know where mysql drops it's files?
[08:42] <dracnoc> madsj, so, what exactly is your problem? Did the dist-upgrade work? Your computer isn't going to remove things it needs, and it will only upgrade what can be upgraded. Do you also need to run "sudo apt-get upgrade"?
[08:42] <tavish> hello, i want to upgrade to 9.10 with a desktop iso. is that possble ?
[08:43] <Blehk> tavish: do-release-upgrade -d
[08:43] <docmax> hello, i'm using debian on my server, can you help me with the sound? its not working. driver seems to be loaded... what do i have to do to check the sound step by step? thanks
[08:43] <mobi-sheep> tavish: You need to apply the Softwares Sources to ensure that "Installation by CD/DVD" is on.
[08:43] <tuxster> Uninstall vlc apt-get -purge remove vlc
[08:43] <mobi-sheep> Dr_Willis: That worked. :3
[08:43] <ikonia> ranjan: what is setting dns, manual, or dhcp
[08:43] <kaptainkranium> Dr_Willis: Okay, so I followed the steps on the howto link you gave me, then opened and rane the package, then the autopackage terminal popped up saying it needed to download additional support code. I authorized this, but it failed and said:The autopackage support code could not be installed.
[08:44] <kaptainkranium> It can be manually downloaded and installed by running the
[08:44] <kaptainkranium> installation script located in the downloaded archive.
[08:44] <dweis> how does Ubuntu decide what permissions to mount an external disk with?
[08:44] <tavish> ok, Blehk , mobi-sheep.
[08:44] <kaptainkranium> Dr_Willis: and I have no idea where the downloaded archive is or how to run the installation script
[08:44] <madsj> dracnoc: don't know; maybe I should try with the GUI-tool instead
[08:44] <madsj> clea
[08:44] <ranjan> ikonia:: it's manually
[08:44] <ikonia> ranjan: so how are you setting them manually ?
[08:44] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  no idea. I avoide autopackage stuff normally..    it may of made some directory and extracted stuff there.
[08:45] <LSD|Ninja> How does one move the shutdown option from that retarded panel applet back to the "System" section of the main menu/menu bar?
[08:45] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:   its possible the app you are trying to install may be MUCH easier to install some other way.
[08:46] <seena> hi, i have installed xp after installing ubuntu then I removed xp and reinstalled ubuntu on different patition and then i was able see my previous Ubuntu as an option. Now my question is how should i make this as default bootloader
[08:46] <seena> i am sorry
[08:46] <kaptainkranium> Dr_Willis: I'm sure it is, but that is the only file they have for linux on their website.. I mean this is a relatively popular game on linux
[08:46] <mostly_useless> seena: you have angered the ubuntu gods. I will pray for you.
[08:46] <ranjan> ikonia :: i mean to say the values i recived was static values so entered the values  by selecting manual option
[08:47] <seena> mostly_useless, sorry i was incomplete
[08:47] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  never heard of it..   check their forums perhaps.
[08:47] <ikonia> ranjan: you're not making sense. Do the dns servers get set automatically by a dhcp server, or do you manually set them
[08:47] <dracnoc> madsj, if you think that some software should be updated and it isn't, then you need to check if you have all your repositories enabled. Like I said earlier, you can use  "Software Sources" in your Admin menu, or you can edit the sources file directly - /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:47] <ranjan> ikonia :: and i recived 5 dns values so i am wondering with it  how to enter those values
[08:48] <ranjan> ikonia :: manually set them
[08:48] <ikonia> ranjan: if you manually set them - why are you asking how to set them ?
[08:48] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  they have source you could try to compile it seems
[08:49] <ranjan> i recived 5 values for dns setings
[08:49] <ranjan> ikonia:: so i am wondering how to enter remaing values ....
[08:49] <seena> mostly_useless, since grub was not appearing after installing xp, I was angry on xp and hence removed to to reappear ubuntu grup but it didnt happened. Hence i have reinstalled to show older ubuntu as boot option
[08:50] <ikonia> ranjan: where did you recieve them from ?
[08:50] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  i am installing it here. :)
[08:50] <ranjan> ikonia :: PC IP :10.10.241.38
[08:50] <ranjan> Subnet Mask :255.255.255.128
[08:50] <ranjan> Gateway :10.10.241.1
[08:50] <ranjan> Primary DNS :172.16.0.1
[08:50] <ranjan> Secondary DNS :4.2.2.2,advaece 110.172.52.4
[08:50] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  from a terminal   - and it seems to be installing fine
[08:50] <ranjan> 202.54.10.63
[08:50] <FloodBot3> ranjan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:50] <ikonia> ranjan: that's not what I asked
[08:51] <ikonia> ranjan: where did you "recieve" the dns servers from
[08:51] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  from a terminal    i ran it and installed it via -> ./daimonin-client-0.9.7.1.x86.package
[08:52] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  and it installed.. now to see if it runs
[08:52] <kaptainkranium> Dr_Willis: did you get to the part where it asks you to download the additional support code?
[08:52] <ranjan> ikonia:: by clicking on wired network set up
[08:52] <ikonia> ranjan: then they are already set
[08:52] <Verbal_Vampire> i have a question...
[08:52] <Verbal_Vampire> im trying to setup Apache ;] im a linux noob =] any help would be great?
[08:52] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  it downloaded it
[08:52] <ikonia> Verbal_Vampire: what's the problem
[08:53] <LSD|Ninja> OK, so OK, so how do I make the indicateort session applet thingy disable fast user switching (and thus restore the shutdown options to their proper location), but retain the empathy presence options?
[08:53] <dweis> how can I change the permissions that ubuntu automounts my external NTFS drive with?
[08:53] <Verbal_Vampire> so, i did the synaptic blah or whatever for Apache 2... second step is?
[08:53] <ranjan> ikonia :: i have entered only 1 value ....  waht should i do with the remaing ones
[08:53] <ikonia> Verbal_Vampire: open your browser at the ip it's bound to
[08:53] <kaptainkranium> Dr_Willis well I have no idea what I did wrong
[08:54] <ikonia> ranjan: well first of all, you only actually need one entry, however if you look in /etc/resolv.conf - you can add additional servers
[08:54] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  i did nothing special. using 9.10 -  i just ran the installer.. i cant find the icon.. but....
[08:54] <Verbal_Vampire> thanks ikonia, It works!...
[08:54] <Verbal_Vampire> i understand now ^_^
[08:55] <kaptainkranium> Dr_Willis: when you opened it, did you choose Run in terminal, display, or Run?
[08:55] <Verbal_Vampire> gives ikonia 5/5 <--- hooah.
[08:55] <Verbal_Vampire> have a nice day everyone.
[08:55] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium: i ran it FROM a terminal
[08:55] <tavish> i'm not able to add the 9.10 cdrom, http://pastebin.com/f26953d8c
[08:55] <Dr_Willis>  kaptainkranium  open a terminal, cd towhere its at..   ./whateveritwawscalled
[08:56] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  and it does run here. But i am on 9.10 at this time
[08:56] <ikonia> Verbal_Vampire: simple eh, maybe worth checking out the docs on apache.org just get a basic over view of how apache works in case you want to do something that's more advanced
[08:56] <kaptainkranium> Dr_Willis: I am too. I'm sorry,, this is my first day on ubuntu, and I did not comprehend anything past "Open a terminal"
[08:57] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  i sugest spending an hr or 2 learning some linux basics then.    'run in terminal' should be doing the exact same thing
[08:57] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  once it isntalls here -i start it with the command 'daimonin'
[08:59] <kaptainkranium> well the installation seemed to work but when i typed in daimonin it says command not found
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  try /usr/bin/daimonin
[08:59] <redtapemedia> hello all
[09:00] <kaptainkranium> Dr_Willis: no such file or directory
[09:00] <redtapemedia> I was just wondering is there a 9.10 minimal installation CD image available?
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  no idea then. Thats where it installed here.
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> kaptainkranium:  rerun the installer, and watchwhere it puts things..or look for a menu item..  youmay need to log out/in for the menus to show up
[09:03] <Blehk> redtapemedia: this is ubuntu. What are you thinking trying to do a minimal installation here? You want minimal? Look at arch/slack/gentoo
[09:04] <Dr_Willis> TinyCoreLinux - 10mb disto :) now thats minimal
[09:04] <Dr_Willis> but it depends on how you define 'minimal' :P
[09:05] <tavish> i get 'Skipping non-exisiting file /media/cdrom/dists/karmic/main/binary-i386/Packages' while adding the cdrom to the sources
[09:05] <bazhang> Blehk, there is an ubuntu minimal installer iso
[09:05] <bazhang> !minimal | Blehk
[09:05] <redtapemedia> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[09:06] <quentusrex> Anyone know how to remove line 63 from a file?
[09:06] <Blehk> bazhang: he was asking about a dev install (9.10), and as I said, this is ubuntu. why bother with a minimal install.
[09:06] <quentusrex> from the command line?
[09:06] <redtapemedia> for XBMC
[09:06] <tarja> quentusrex: yeah you could use tail and head
[09:06] <bazhang> Blehk, they have existed for quite awhile.
[09:07] <quentusrex> I'm familiar with the 'perl -pi -e "s/text/replacement/g" filename '
[09:07] <Blehk> bazhang: read what I wrote.
[09:07] <quentusrex> tarja, I need to completely remove a particular line from a file....
[09:07] <docmax> where is partimaged ?
[09:07] <wgrant> Blehk: Why use a different distro?
[09:07] <docmax> cant find it
[09:07] <tarja> quentusrex: yes, use tail and head to clip one line out and redirect to a file
[09:08] <Blehk> quentusrex: sed -i '63 d' /path/to/file
[09:08] <tarja> okay that too :)
[09:08] <quentusrex> that's cool
[09:08] <Blehk> between sed and awk you can pretty much... do most things to a file.
[09:08] <frogzoo1> sound on my jaunty "works" but is so quiet it's like it's unamplified... ?
[09:09] <docmax> ok got it.. its "partimage-server" packet
[09:09] <Ademan> frogzoo1: right click on the volume thing and hit sound preferences, and enable everything you can and crank it up until it works lol
[09:09] <frogzoo1> no easy fix for low low volumes on jaunty?
[09:10] <frogzoo1> Ademan: lolz, that wasn't hard, thanks a bunch
[09:10] <Ademan> frogzoo1: haha no problem
[09:11] <skloer> hi. I have a question about the resizing thing in the partitioning part of the setup. - I have a hardisk already partitioned in the past (with windows). I have formatted & kept the primary partition on this hard disk to install Ubuntu. but on the rest of the drives in the harddisk i have data that I'd like to keep untouched by the Ubuntu installation process. Is this possible ?
[09:11] <mojo_o> frogzoo1: there are multiple volume controls, make sure pcm & master are turned up. 75% for both works fine here
[09:11] <jvainio> Hey is there any way to add Fiji to the timezones in Gnome???
[09:11] <jvainio> I think Fiji is a wellknown country
[09:12] <jvainio> why it isn't there in the timezones?
[09:12] <jvainio> weird.
[09:12] <skloer> am reading teh guide & it says that i have to resize & make more partitions etc
[09:13] <skloer> do i have to make those extra partitions & resize etc to install ?
[09:13] <Ademan> jvainio: i know of Fiji, complain to people in #ubuntu+1 though probably, or make a bug on launchpad (preferably)
[09:13] <Lord_R> need help
[09:13] <mojo_o> jvainio: just go with new zealand ;-)
[09:13] <Lord_R> why i cant boot my ubuntu cd ?
[09:13] <hakka> hulk
[09:13] <ido_> "I ran disk usage scan over the entire filesystem (105 GB). The final chart mapped only 13.5 GP, where all the other 91.5 GB? Does Ubuntu 9.04 uses 91.5 GB????
[09:13] <jvainio> mojo_o: is it the same timezone?
[09:13] <tarja> Lord_R: what happens?
[09:13] <wgrant> jvainio: The timezone is Pacific/Fiji.
[09:13] <jvainio> i think it is -1
[09:14] <wgrant> jvainio: Is it not listed?
[09:14] <Lord_R> tarja: it start up with windows. nothing happend
[09:14] <jvainio> no it isn't
[09:14] <wgrant> jvainio: Where are you looking?
[09:14] <patchon> ehm, is there any developer channel for notify-osd ?
[09:14] <tarja> Lord_R: did you set the boot sequence from the bios?
[09:14] <bazhang> Lord_R, did you set bios to look for cd first
[09:14] <Lord_R> yeap. in the blue screen
[09:14] <mojo_o> jvainio: yeah +12. not sure about saylight savings though.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTC%2B12
[09:14] <Lord_R> yesss
[09:14] <bazhang> Lord_R, md5 the iso? burn very slowly then do the disk integrity check?
[09:15] <mojo_o> jvainio: s/saylight/daylight/
[09:15] <jvainio> wgrant: click the clock. go to locations. try to type in Fiji. nothing.
[09:15] <wgrant> jvainio: Try a city.
[09:15] <skloer> anyone around who can help ?
[09:15] <Lord_R> the desktop. 9.02. i burned it from my friend's computer
[09:15] <wgrant> jvainio: Otherwise, select the timezone manually (Pacific -> Fiji)
[09:15] <jvainio> wgrant: Doesn't know the capital, suva
[09:15] <Lord_R> the speed is default.
[09:15] <jvainio> or the 2nd largest, lautoka
[09:15] <jvainio> or the oturist gateway, nadi
[09:15] <bazhang> Lord_R, sounds like a corrupt iso or a bad burn
[09:15] <jvainio> or vanua levus 2nd largest, savusavu
[09:15] <tarja> Lord_R: maybe a corrupted cd, i don't know
[09:15] <tavish> is there some problem with the karmic rc iso? i cant add the cdrom as a source.
[09:16] <wgrant> jvainio: Indeed, seems not :( Enter it manually, I guess.
[09:16] <Lord_R> how come its corupt cd that i just bought it a while ago
[09:16] <Lord_R> :(
[09:16] <Lord_R> i downloaded the file from the website it self, via torrent.
[09:16] <tarja> did you integrity check the iso?
[09:16] <Lord_R> i bured it with an iso file, i didnt extract it, i just burned it
[09:16] <Lord_R> what do you mean by integrity check?
[09:17] <tarja> md5 checksum
[09:17] <Lord_R> how? i dont know that, educate me
[09:17] <jvainio> wgrant: yeah i got it. thanks for your help!
[09:17] <jvainio> have a nice day!
[09:17] <tarja> !md5
[09:17] <mojo_o> torrent pieces are hash checked as they download aren't they?
[09:17] <tarja> Lord_R: see that
[09:17] <wgrant> mojo_o: Yes, and the whole thing is generally verified at the end.
[09:17] <wgrant> But things could go wrong.
[09:19] <MenDan1> In the / dev and / proc, there are a number of crash data, I can delete the them?
[09:20] <odix> so i enabled vnc on my machine...how do i connect to it via another machine ?
[09:20] <odix> running linux
[09:20] <tarja> you will need vnc client
[09:20] <odix> is there a vnc viewer gui of some sort or a vnc server gui i can set it up properly with...
[09:20] <odix> ok...
[09:21] <odix> what about for the server can i change the port and stuff ? x11vnc i assume is the standard ?
[09:21] <MenDan1>  It looks like the file /dev/core was just a link to a file /proc/kcore which really IS off limits.  It won't let me delete it.
[09:21] <MenDan1>  
[09:21] <MenDan1> Any ideas?
[09:21] <odix> and has anyone got the rt2870sta wireless driver working ?
[09:21] <wgrant> MenDan1: Why do you want to delete?
[09:21] <ido_> I need help to understand my ubuntu 9.04 crazy disk usage. Why the disk analyzer scanned only 13 GB out of 105 GB?
[09:22] <mobi-sheep> Does anybody here use Deluge and FlexRSS plugin?
[09:22] <ido_> I some one answers me please call my name
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> ido_:  clarify the question some more..
[09:23] <odix> also..i installed ssh and ftp...however i can not connect ot my box via either of these
[09:23] <odix> do i have to add something in hosts.allow ?
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> odix:  not normally.. see if you can ssh in via 'ssh 127.0.0.1'  on the local box.
[09:24] <Dr_Willis> odix:  if you are trying to access the machine across the internet and not just on the local lan. Your router may need to be set up to forward the ports
[09:24] <odix> nope..tried that to
[09:24] <Dr_Willis> odix:  you did install the ssh-server?
[09:25] <MenDan1> wgrant:The upper right corner because they have a fork, the property where notes are destroyed data, each with 800M, a total of 1.6G,can i delete them?
[09:25] <odix> yes...how can i check if it is ?
[09:25] <odix> also pure ftpd
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> sudo service start sshd
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> sudo service ssh start
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> oops :) got it backwards
[09:26] <ido_> Ok I have ran Disk Analyzer scan over the entire file system. The analyzer mapped for me only 13.5 GB as 100% of usage, but my disk is built with 105 GB. where all the 91 GB went??
[09:26] <Lord_R> nothing happend again
[09:26] <skloer> is it possible to preserve the data on the rest of the drives on my hard disk, while I install ubuntu on the drive which is the primary partition ?
[09:26] <Lord_R> :(
[09:26] <wgrant> MenDan1: /proc/kcore is your computer's entire memory. Stuff in /proc and /sys is all virtual; it doesn't really exist on disk.
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> ido_:  check your partition layouts?   see what 'df -h' shows also
[09:26] <odix> says ssh is already installed
[09:27] <Lord_R> how do i know if the file iso is corrupt?
[09:27] <odix> says it cant locate or load host key
[09:27] <tarja> Lord_R: did you check the md5 sum?
[09:27] <bazhang> Lord_R, checked on a windows machine?
[09:28] <Lord_R> yeap
[09:28] <Lord_R> how do i check it tarja?
[09:28] <tarja> !md5
[09:28] <tarja> did those help?
[09:28] <bazhang> Lord_R, the last link
[09:28] <Lord_R> nopz :(
[09:28] <MenDan1> wgrant:Thanks!
[09:28] <tarja> hmm
[09:28]  * mojo_o slaps Lord_R with a bucket of hash
[09:28] <skloer> lol @ ubottu, nice nick for the bot :)
[09:29] <cherva> can someone tell me why when I start to type something in the Run Application (Alt + F2) the letters apear after 3seconds and my CPU usage is 100%
[09:29] <surgy> http://www.nrrrg.com/
[09:29] <odix> Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
[09:29] <wgrant> odix: What command tells you that?
[09:29] <odix> ssh
[09:29] <skloer> cherva, cpu must be getting excited
[09:29] <odix> starting ssh
[09:30] <Lord_R> when i right click and send to "WinMd5sum" it doesnt exist
[09:30] <odix> hmm and how can i get vnc to work remotely, not jut locally ?
[09:30] <odix> n/m i used sudo got ssh to start
[09:30] <Dr_Willis> odix:  clariy what you mean remotely?  if all these services are being blocked.. then  you may have some firewall rules setup
[09:30] <odix> ya cause it started but still wont connect ;[
[09:31] <cherva> skloer: ?
[09:31] <eXeC001er> Hello!
[09:31] <odix> ill chk the firewall
[09:31] <Lord_R> can someone helpp me
[09:31] <odix> im sure it was turnd off tho ;\
[09:31] <eXeC001er> How i can copy some packages from repo1 to repo2 ?
[09:31] <mojo_o> cherva: because some features of the run command havn't been implimented yet so you entries are processed remotely by a team of highly trained circus monkeys whose respone is processed by an extremly complex algorithm hence the high cpu usage and delay.
[09:32] <skloer> :>
[09:32] <navap> !ask | Lord_R 
[09:33] <cherva> mojo_o: do you think that this is funny ?
[09:33] <odix> heh my firewall is disabled ;[
[09:33] <odix> hmm
[09:33] <ido_> OK,in short, It shows Size: 106g   Used: 95GB  for the whole file system. 10.56 GB are unused according to the GParted (about 5 gb for boot I guess...), and 5.2G are available according to df -h.
[09:34] <mojo_o> cherva: no, and the poor creatures are overworked and underpaid, barely making enough money. but one day they'll buy their freedom
[09:35] <Lord_R> The install ubuntu 9.02 cant boot. need help.
[09:35] <D4rk_M4st3r> hi
[09:36] <bazhang> Lord_R, which app did you use to check the iso; also did you reburn the cd and do the disk integrity check (after burning at a lower speed)
[09:36] <raven_> is there a tool like "filloutaform" (http://www.jdmcox.com/) for ubuntu?
[09:36]  * mojo_o hands D4rk_M4st3r a lamp
[09:36] <debianbased> can anyone recommend me a stable (NOT beta), currently developed debian based LIVE distribution which offers the same functionality as Incognito Linux?  Yes, it must include tor!
[09:36] <dogan_> selamlar
[09:36] <Lord_R> i didnt check it, i immideatly burn it.
[09:36] <mostly_useless> mojo_o: my mom releases a pretty stable debian based distro.
[09:37] <bazhang> debianbased, that is outside the scope of this channel, this is for ubunt support
[09:37] <pagix> debianbased, why not just install the tools u need on whatever dist?
[09:37] <mojo_o> mostly_useless: yes, i know!
[09:37] <conb123> Hiya i recently had to remove my .gnome and .gconf and .gconfd folders because gconf was playing up. But now i log in again i have lost all of my menu items under applications and the main menu program under system will not start. How can i add my main menu items again?
[09:37] <dogan_> hi
[09:37] <dogan_> I installed Ubuntu but I have a problem
[09:37] <zcat[1]> pagix: hey'd have to 'remater' to get a live cd?
[09:38] <pagix> zcat[1], what?
[09:38] <debianbased> can anyone recommend me a stable (NOT beta), currently developed ubuntu based LIVE distribution which offers the same functionality as Incognito Linux?  Yes, it must include tor!
[09:38] <mojo_o> mostly_useless: what was the url for it again?
[09:38] <bazhang> debianbased, did you read my message
[09:39] <dogan_> Ekran şu şekilde : http://forum.pardus-linux.org/download/file.php?id=437&sid=a8c99e81b19cf3655c33136cd644faf2
[09:39] <zcat[1]> pagix: they'd have to 'remaster' to get a live cd... not sure how to do that. Or add the same packages every time they boot.
[09:39] <bazhang> dogan_, please dont paste that here
[09:39] <raven_> is there a tool like "filloutaform" (http://www.jdmcox.com/) for ubuntu?
[09:39] <mostly_useless> debianbased: ubuntu not good enough for you?
[09:40] <odix> linux mint
[09:40] <pagix> zcat[1], how about use remastersys ?
[09:40] <pagix> Easypeasypoopoo
[09:40] <BlouBlou> debianbased: install ubuntu LTS, and then install Tor
[09:40] <ikonia> odix: you're using linux mint ?
[09:41] <Dr_Willis> Ewww :)
[09:41] <sonic> สวัสดีครับ
[09:42] <mobi-sheep> Do you use BitTorrent + RSS? Please let me know. I'm trying to find a decent RSS-supported torrent client. :3
[09:42] <odix> no
[09:42] <odix> but whats wrong with mint ?
[09:42] <odix> its number 3 on distro watch
[09:42] <odix> gotta say something
[09:42] <raven_> what are the files for kernel and ramdisk on an ubuntu-install-cd?
[09:42] <mobi-sheep> !mint | odix
[09:42] <Dr_Willis> odix:  its not  supprted here for one thing.. and they often cause some issues with things that work fine in normal ubuntu
[09:42] <conb123> Right i have found out what is preventing main menu from starting could somebody try and work out what is wrong from this error please? http://paste.ubuntu.com/301192/
[09:42] <ikonia> odix: it's poisition in distro watch means nothing, I was just going to make you aware of the correct support channels for mint so you got the right advice
[09:43] <odix> i think its position does. it means its the 3rd most downloaded distro right now, ubunutu being number 1 and debian number 2
[09:43] <del_diablo> Default Ubuntu question: How do i remove Evolution without killing of half my systems essential packages?
[09:44] <ikonia> del_diablo: gnome's meta package depends on evolution
[09:44] <ikonia> del_diablo: if you're happy removing the meta package - you're fine
[09:44] <mobi-sheep> del_diablo: If you're talking about package 'ubuntu-desktop' -- It's a metapackage.
[09:44] <pagix> odix, is that because everyone have to redownload them all the they cuz they dosnt work ?
[09:44] <conb123> What is wrong with my alacarte? http://paste.ubuntu.com/301192/
[09:44] <wgrant> At least in 9.10, you can remove evolution without removing ubuntu-desktop.
[09:44] <ido_> Dr_Wallis: OK,in short, It shows Size: 106g   Used: 95GB  for the whole file system. 10.56 GB are unused according to the GParted (about 5 gb for boot I guess...), and 5.2G are available according to df -h. So why, the disk analyzer informs me only about 13.5 GB I use?
[09:45] <ikonia> odix: how does the most downloadable distro position make it the best - it just means it's had the most downloads, but this isn't really for #ubuntu
[09:45] <Dr_Willis> ido_:  i dont even know what 'disk analizer' you are using.. could be its just looking in your users Home directory
[09:45] <mojo_o> 5gb for boot :o
[09:45] <Axius> Did someone tried Ubuntu 9.10? How is it comper to 9.04 version?
[09:45] <ikonia> Axius: 9.10 discussion in #ubuntu+1 please
[09:45] <del_diablo> ikonia, mobi-sheep: I am talking about that gnome-applets, gnome-panel, indicator applets and loads more will be removed upon attempting to purge evoltution. How do i get around this?
[09:46] <debianbased> BlouBlou, i want a LIVE distro, i do not want to install anything onto the hard disk!
[09:46] <odix> im not saying its the best, im just saying its a prominable distro
[09:46] <pagix> debianbased, you can make a live cd yourself
[09:47] <mojo_o> Dr_Willis: he's using df -h
[09:47] <mobi-sheep> del_diablo: Leave some packages out of it -- (eg evolution-data-server)
[09:47] <debianbased> mostly_useless, a LIVE ubuntu based distro that does what i want will also be ok
[09:47] <mojo_o> Dr_Willis: never mind :o
[09:47] <BlouBlou> debianbased: ubuntu has got live CD
[09:47] <Dr_Willis> mojo_o:  :) hes got me confused also....
[09:47] <hansonry> hey dose ubuntu have a package for kernel version 2.6.31.5?
[09:47] <mchasard> hello
[09:47] <mostly_useless> debianbased: what do you want it to do?
[09:47] <ido_> Dr_Willis: It's "Disk Usage Analyzer" application which is built in ubuntu9.04. It has 2 options: "Scan Home" and "Scan Filesystem".
[09:48] <mostly_useless> debianbased: they're yet to release my beer and stripper factory distro that I've requested, so good luck.
[09:48] <mojo_o> ido_: stop using this disk analyzer and keep using df :-)
[09:48] <del_diablo> mobi-sheep: Why is evolution server do skullfuckedly intigrated in the dependacy that its not removeable without a reinstall of everything else?
[09:48] <mchasard> with network manager no way to see my wifi network ...
[09:48] <Lord_R> can i install ubuntu using my ipod?
[09:48] <debianbased> can anyone recommend me a stable (NOT beta), currently developed debianor ubuntu  based LIVE distribution which offers the same functionality as Incognito Linux?  Yes, it must include tor! NO, this desktop newbie does not want to create a live distro!
[09:49] <Lord_R> can i install ubuntu using my ipod?
[09:49] <mchasard> do you have any ideas ?
[09:49] <del_diablo> debianbased: !minimal
[09:49] <Dr_Willis> Lord_R:  can you boot a pc from your ipod?
[09:49] <del_diablo> !minimal debianbased
[09:49] <del_diablo> !minimal
[09:49] <ido_> mojo_o: but I still don't know what uses my 90 GB?? my Home is only 13.5 GB!
[09:50] <tom_> I've got a nice problem. I meant ot add my user to a group, but instead of appending the group i removed my use rfrom all groups. so now i can't sudo because i'm not in the admin group, and i think i never created a root password. (why didn't the ubuntu installation force me to?) any tips to how i can solve this?
[09:50] <del_diablo> debianbased: And then you need to figur out where the 9.10 CD is, the package repos is already dates and thus stable.
[09:50] <Lord_R> Dr_Willis: that's my queston
[09:50] <mchasard> can'tsee my wifi network in the list ...
[09:50] <mobi-sheep> del_diablo: You can ask Gnome -- It's a part of Gnome integrated packages. It'd be like asking them to remove nautilus.  Until there are something more decent than evolution, it'll *still* be a part of the packages.
[09:50] <Dr_Willis> Lord_R:  i would be suprised if you could.
[09:51] <MenDan1> excuse me, Upper right corner of the file has a fork: what's that mean?This file is effective?
[09:51] <debianbased> del_diablo, i do not want to install anything onto the hard disk or create a LIVE distro out Ubuntu or Debian MinimalCD
[09:52] <del_diablo> debianbased: I arrived a bit after the discussion started, so may i ask what the orginal question was?
[09:52] <LMJ> Hi
[09:52] <bazhang> debianbased, you want something identical to incognito linux correct?
[09:53] <debianbased> i want something which offers more or less the same functionality. tor must be included though
[09:53] <mobi-sheep> del_diablo: If you're trying to accomplish thinner/minimal thing as most people do, you should resort to Ubuntu Minimal and install packages as you need them instead of using metapackage -- ubuntu-desktop
[09:53] <mobi-sheep> !minimal | del_diablo
[09:53] <LMJ> I would like to know if something ever try to the video over XMPP/Jabber with Empathy available on Ubuntu 9.10, I can start an audio call but video + audio never worked. I don't know if it's a firewall problem, network problem or application problem, anyone could help me out to investigate please ?
[09:53] <bazhang> debianbased, sounds like if you dont wish to remaster something , then ubuntu is not it. this is ubuntu support, and ubuntu does not have tor installed or even in the repos.
[09:54] <cherva> what commands does the "Places->Connect to server....." mount an ssh file system ? It's not "sshfs example.com:/stuff /media/home-pc" because sshfs times out and reconnects every time I change a dir or edit a file and the file systems mounted from "Connect to server" does not timeout
[09:54] <bazhang> LMJ, #ubuntu+1 for karmic
[09:54] <LMJ> k
[09:54] <Pythack> Hi.
[09:54] <Pythack> :j  "
[09:55] <cptblood> is this possible on newer versions of Ubuntu too: http://maketecheasier.com/turn-your-ubuntu-hardy-to-mac-osx-leopard/2008/07/23 ?
[09:55] <mobi-sheep> cherva: I would imagine that you're just sftp-ing in instead of sshfs-ing when you're using Connect-To-Server
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> cherva:  check what 'ps ax | grep ssh' shows  perhaps
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> ceda:  i see a  few ssh commands in use here.. but i got several things going on.
[09:56] <skloer> is it possible to preserve the data on the rest of the drives on my hard disk, while I install ubuntu on the 1st drive which is the primary partition ?
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> oops that was for cherva  :)  and sshfs works fine for me
[09:56] <ecm> need help
[09:57] <ecm> a xp to linux problem
[09:57] <Pythack> Ok.
[09:57] <bazhang> ecm, please clarify
[09:57] <ecm> well i use to use ps1 emluator in xp
[09:57] <ecm> and it use to recognise  .bin.ecm
[09:57] <mobi-sheep> Dr_Willis: Do you have ~/.ssh/config -- You may have some PreventTimeOutThing config
[09:57] <ecm> and in lniux the emulator requires .iso
[09:58] <ecm> so how do i convert .bin.ecm to.iso
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  the ps1 emulators can support different plugins to read fifferent file formats. there is a cue/bin2 iso tool in the repos also.
[09:58] <bazhang> ecm, which version of ubuntu, which ps1 emulator (package name )
[09:58] <cherva> Dr_Willis: yes it works fine for me too but I have configured my remote server to send me an SMS when someone connects to it and it sends me an sms every time it reconects....I don't want to change this setting to for example don't send me an sms when connecting from this ip .....
[09:58] <ecm> im using PCSX
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> mobi-sheep:  im using the system defaults.. but this is a 9.10 system.  let me chedk the defaults.
[09:59] <bazhang> ecm, version of ubuntu
[09:59] <ecm> 9.04
[09:59] <ecm> jaunty
[09:59] <coz_> ecm,  here is an tutorial   http://www.alterego7.com/2008/03/convert-bin-to-iso-in-ubuntu.html  I have no idea if it works though
[09:59] <bazhang> ecm, how does xp come into this
[09:59] <ecm> well in xp it was .exe
[09:59] <ecm> and i could convert iso's easily
[09:59] <Dr_Willis> mobi-sheep:  i got no PreventTimeOut setting in any of my configs.
[09:59] <ecm> and in linux wine dont work
[10:00]  * Dr_Willis wonders what a .exe has to do with a iso...
[10:00] <bazhang> ecm, wine is for windows apps not ps1
[10:00] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  there is a PS1 emulator in the repos for 9.10 :)  (that will be released in a week or so)  and it worked..
[10:00] <Joker> Can anyone help me with some resolution problems ?
[10:00] <ecm> yh but i  use to use a app that was an exe to convert iso's to bin and vice versa
[10:00] <Dr_Willis> was there a ps1 emu in 9.04? i forget.
[10:01] <ido_> mojo_o and Dr_wallis: my Home is only 18 GB, I have 90 GB USED by unknown entity.
[10:01] <ecm> and in linux i cant do that
[10:01] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  there are apps for linux to convert cue/bin to iso also.
[10:01] <ecm> dr. can you tell me
[10:01] <ecm> where i can get it
[10:01] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  fire up the package manager and search. I thinkthe name was 'bchunk' or similer..
[10:01] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  or the fuseiso  can mount them also.
[10:02] <Dr_Willis> !info bchunk
[10:02] <ecm> im in synapitic
[10:02] <ecm> now wat
[10:02] <Dr_Willis> now read.. what the bot jus said
[10:02] <Dr_Willis> install bchunk
[10:02] <Dr_Willis> :)

[10:02] <Joker> I got a 32" LCD screen. and a Nvidia geforce 8800 GTS videocard. And i need the resolution to be 1360x768. And ive tried everything. 1000 of setting is xorg.conf. if you can help send a PM. so can i send a dump link for the xorg.conf file im using at the moment. Thanks

[10:04] <ecm> but how would i use it
[10:04] <Dr_Willis> now read the man pages for it. :)
[10:04] <ecm> man pages??
[10:04] <Dr_Willis> open a terminal..  man bchunk
[10:04] <ecm> were

[10:06] <ecm> i have a .bin.cue
[10:06] <Dr_Willis>  bchunk [-v] [-p] [-r] [-w] [-s] <image.bin> <image.cue> <basename>
[10:06] <ecm> how do i  convert it
[10:06] <pasquale> perchè imagination non mi compare nei programmi dopo averlo installato
[10:07] <ecm> i dont understand terminal soz
[10:07] <Dr_Willis>  bchunk  image.bin image.cue  NAMETOUSE
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> you havent even tried. :)(
[10:07] <ecm> i have tried
[10:07] <jfb_h2o> python
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> bchunk --help gives an example command line also
[10:07] <ecm> so what do i write
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> Example: bchunk foo.bin foo.cue foo
[10:07] <ecm> the diriercoty
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> makea a foo.iso
[10:07] <ecm> and <image.bin>
[10:08]  * Dr_Willis cuts and pastes from teh docs. :)
[10:08] <ecm> wats a foo.iso
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> its an EXAMPLE NAME
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> use whatevber name you want
[10:08] <pagix> foo = example/randomname/whatever
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> Example: bchunk foo.bin foo.cue SUPERDOOPERFANCYDISKTHATILOVE.iso
[10:09] <ecm> i ok
[10:09] <ecm> so i write
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> logical eh. :)
[10:09] <raven_> is there a tool like "filloutaform" (http://www.jdmcox.com/) for ubuntu?
[10:09] <bazhang> !enter | ecm
[10:09] <ecm> i put in 'bchunk Vanishing Point (E) (Track 01) [SLES-02534].bin.ecm foo.iso
[10:10] <meteo> hi all
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> ive neever even heard  of a .ecm file format.
[10:10] <ecm> its a bin.ecm
[10:10] <Dr_Willis>  so it might not be a cue/bin file.
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> and you need to quote names with ' ' if it has spaces in the name
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> bchunk 'big ugly name' newname
[10:11] <Dr_Willis> and you DONT put iso on the end it knows to use .iso
[10:11] <ecm> do i put the directory in??
[10:11] <ecm> the location of were he file is
[10:11] <Dr_Willis> what directory? you give the path if you re not in the current directory.. or cd to the dirrectory
[10:11] <Dr_Willis> cd whereveritsat
[10:11] <Dr_Willis> bchunk whtever......
[10:12] <ecm> so i write
[10:12] <athlan> ay to prevent gufw from requesting my password after logging in? It starts with the session.
[10:12] <ecm> bchunk /home/tanveer/Desktop/Downloads/Vanishing Point/foo.ecm
[10:12] <athlan> is there a way to prevent gufw from requesting my password after logging in? It starts with the session.
[10:12] <fuzzy> what video player should i install (preferably one with hardware rendering)
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  as i said.. youmust use SINGLE QUOTES around a file/path that has spaces in the name
[10:13] <ecm> can u give me an .ege??
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  or 'cd /home/tanver/Desktop/Downloads'   THEn use just the file name
[10:13] <ecm> e.g.
[10:13] <athlan> is there a way to prevent gufw from requesting my password after logging in? It starts with the session.
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> bchunk '/path/to/the/big ugly name' newname
[10:14] <ecm> do i put the quotations in?
[10:15] <rapman> Hi! Anyone expecting problems with wi-fi connection in ubuntu 9.10?
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  use SINGLE QUOTES around a file/path that has spaces in the name
[10:15] <m0RrE> !#ubuntu+1 | rapman
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> thats the whole reason for the quotations
[10:16]  * Dr_Willis reserches .ecm extension and  doubts if bchunk will convert it properlyu
[10:16] <athlan> "firewall configuration" (gufw) wants my password for "administrative purposes. This means i have to type in the password twice, if gufw is supposed to start with the session. How am i able to make gufw come up without needing my password?
[10:16] <ecm> /home/tanveer/Desktop/foo.bin.ecm
[10:17] <athlan> "firewall configuration" (gufw) wants my password for "administrative purposes. This means i have to type in the password twice (once more after log in), if gufw is supposed to start with the session. How am i able to make gufw come up without needing my password?
[10:17] <ecm> dr willis
[10:17] <ecm> can we just do
[10:17] <raven_> what are the files for kernel and ramdisk on an ubuntu-install-cd?
[10:17] <rkpisanu> why some game use gampad and other dont use ? i can simulate keybord with gamepad ?
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  cd to the directory where the file is at.. then use the command from there. that way you dont ahve to worry about the path
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> cd /home/tanveer/Desktop/Downloads/
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> bchunk 'the name with spaces.ecm' foo

[10:20] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  from what i googled a .ecm file is NOT a .bin, you mayneed to convert it to a normal .bin first
[10:20] <erUSUL> athlan: then i dunno... i do not use gfuw myself.
[10:20] <ecm> how would i do that?
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  then use the bchunk command toconvert it to iso
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  http://roms.zophar.net/forums/showthread.php?t=62
[10:20] <athlan> erUSUL which gui do u use?

[10:22] <Dr_Willis> !info ecm
[10:22] <ecm> i read that i need a .exe file
[10:22] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  looks like you install the 'ecm' package and use the 'unecm' command first on it.
[10:22] <ecm> install an ecm??
[10:23] <Dr_Willis> install the ecm package.....

[10:24] <thedead91> hi guys... i've a question for you: how can i disable the login from the graphical mode, and do it in the shell so next i can use startx?
[10:24] <Heaven> Where i can found GUI app for making .deb?
[10:24] <docmax> i have mounted a cifs share to my pc. when the server restarts the share is unusable... is there a setting which allows cifs to reconnect to the share?
[10:24] <erUSUL> ecm: unecm foo.bin.ecm foo.bin
[10:24] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  it is a FILEnAME.bin.ecm   you have to unecm it first  to make it a .bin  then use bchunk toconvert the .bin to iso
[10:24] <ecm> linux is hard i installed .ecm
[10:24] <athlan> When trying to browse the "windows network" with nautilus, i get the error: Unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server. what does that mean?
[10:25] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  no its not,, you are not  learning/thinking.. its rather logical.
[10:25] <raven_> is there a tool like "filloutaform" (http://www.jdmcox.com/) for ubuntu?
[10:25] <Dr_Willis> unecm whatever.bin.ecm
[10:25] <ecm> but im crap at maths
[10:25] <Dr_Willis> bchunk whatever.bin  whatever
[10:25] <ecm> do i put the location??
[10:25] <erUSUL> thedead91: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[10:25] <Heaven> Where i can found GUI app for making .deb?
[10:25] <Dr_Willis> thats the core of the whole process
[10:25] <erUSUL> Heaven: no such thing exist
[10:25] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  for the 5th time.. IF YOU ARE in the current directory with the file.. you do not need to worry abouyt the path.
[10:25] <thedead91> erUSUL what will this command do?
[10:26] <ecm> wats the current dir?
[10:26] <ecm> its on my desktop now
[10:26] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  then its /home/username/Desktop
[10:26] <Heaven> So how about .sh?
[10:26] <erUSUL> thedead91: disable the login manager on boot. So X will not be started. You get console login in tty1
[10:26] <ecm> its decoding?
[10:26] <Dr_Willis> whichis why i gave the 'cd /home/username/Desktop' command earlier to put the shell in the current directory
[10:26] <athlan> When trying to browse the "windows network" with nautilus, i get the error: Unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server. what does that mean?
[10:26] <ecm> i put in unecm /home/tanveer/Desktop/foo.bin.ecm foo.iso and its decoding now
[10:26] <erUSUL> Heaven: .sh ? a shell script ?
[10:26] <thedead91> erUSUL ok, thanks guy
[10:27] <erUSUL> thedead91: "sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults" to undo the change
[10:27] <ecm> DR its decoded but i dont no were the decoded file went?1
[10:27] <guitar-maniac> /join ubuntu+1
[10:27] <erUSUL> Heaven: any editor would do
[10:27] <guitar-maniac> /join ubuntu+1
[10:27] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  no idea.. look in the current directory
[10:27] <thedead91> thanks erUSUL
[10:27] <Heaven> I dunno. Something like crossover.sh
[10:28] <ecm> its in the current directory
[10:28] <ecm> iits not in *
[10:28] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  which is another reason for the 'cd /home/whatever/Desktop' command i gave earlier.. it would be on the desktop then..
[10:28] <Dr_Willis> look around and find it i guess
[10:28] <athlan> When trying to browse the "windows network" with nautilus, i get the error: Unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server. Please select another viewer and try again. what does that mean?
[10:28] <guitar-maniac> i installed timidity, but my guitar pro wont regognize it...? i updated to karmic koala yesterday..
[10:28] <erUSUL> Heaven: that are installers done with "shar" afaik they bundle shell scripts and binary data in a script runable by the shell
[10:28] <ecm> but i dont understnad the cd/ home   thingy

[10:32] <athlan> When trying to browse the "windows network" with nautilus, i get the error: Unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server. Please select another viewer and try again. what does that mean?
[10:32] <Dr_Willis> b_:  ive seen guides for that.. but i dont ahve any urls
[10:33] <ech0s7> hi
[10:33] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  ive had to type in the actual path to the server/share befor.. nautilus for some reason never wants to scan the network properly
[10:33] <daniele> Anyone know how to change fsb by ubuntu? it's important for me
[10:33] <ech0s7> i have ubuntu 9.04, how can i install gnome 2.28 ?
[10:34] <mojo_o> daniele: i read "frond side bus".. ?
[10:34] <athlan> Dr_Willis: The strange thing is: It works under fedora... So is nautilus responsible?
[10:34] <daniele> mojo_o: yes...
[10:35] <Fenix1> are DNS servers deployd only to companies who have web sites?
[10:35] <mojo_o> daniele: usually you can do that sort of thing in the bios
[10:35] <daniele> ech0s7: why you don't upgrade ubuntu version
[10:35] <ech0s7> daniele: how ?
[10:35] <daniele> mojo_o: my bios is loked. is this the real problem
[10:35] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  ive neer figured out why its so silly,  its much better on 9.10 now
[10:35] <domedagen> Should I partionate for a new document and image partion in xubuntu or when I install opensuse?
[10:35] <Fenix1> does anyone have time to answer a simple question
[10:36] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  i jsut always enter the full name like --> smb://pinky/shareddocs/  then it works after that..
[10:36] <domedagen> I have Fenix
[10:36] <Fenix1> riddle me this
[10:36] <mojo_o> daniele: well the defaults should be ok.. it's usually not a good idea to overclock it.
[10:36] <daniele> ech0s7: whit 'gestore aggtiornamenti'... i'm italian, translate gestore aggiornamenti to english :p
[10:37] <athlan> Dr_Willis: this does not work either. it just works when entering the ip. --> smb://192.168.1.35/share
[10:37] <ido_> Ok, How do I get a DETAILD analysis of the disk usage? df -h shows a very "overall" picture
[10:37] <Fenix1> are DNS servers deployd into companies with web sites or to companies without web sites to
[10:37] <mojo_o> daniele: while flashing the bios might get rid of any passwords, i don't exactly recommend it
[10:37] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  for my lan i put each samba servers hostname and ip in /etc/hosts   :)
[10:37] <daniele> mojo_o: my pc on windows using ntune to chenge fsb arrive to 2.8 Ghz whitout problems...
[10:37] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  that way i can use the name
[10:37] <athlan> Dr_Willis: although ping servername works perfectly
[10:37] <ech0s7> daniele: thanks, also i'm italian :P
[10:37] <athlan> Dr_Willis: yes, i did that.
[10:38] <luislobo> hi
[10:38] <domedagen> Wait 3 sec
[10:38] <daniele> ech0s7: allora vai sul gestore aggiornamenti
[10:38] <ech0s7> daniele: i have done, sudo update-manager -d
[10:38] <Padhu> mojo_o: Just remove motherboard battery and please it as reverse. Then ON.  Then switch off machine and normalize the battery position and boot. Now bios will be unlocked.
[10:38] <pranav> what is the command for updating cache list : sudo apt-cache upadate ???
[10:38] <Padhu> place*
[10:38] <domedagen> I know the answer
[10:38] <luislobo> when you get a postinst error with dpkg, where can I read the output of the postinst script or the error log ?
[10:38] <athlan> Dr_Willis: nautilus does not care, but ping nameofserver works...
[10:38] <ido_> Ok, How do I get a DETAILD analysis of the disk usage? df -h shows a very "overall" picture
[10:38] <Fenix1> mind telling me
[10:38] <erUSUL> pranav: sudo apt-get update
[10:38] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  thats very very weird
[10:38] <domedagen> They have to register for them selves
[10:38] <raven_> what are the files for kernel and ramdisk on an ubuntu-install-cd?
[10:38] <silv3r_m00n> how can I run quanta on kde 4 ?
[10:39] <erUSUL> ido_: use aplications>accesories>disk use analizer
[10:39] <mojo_o> daniele: you might want to look into the lfsb utility
[10:39] <cptblood> i get an ipv6 address instead of ipv4, how do i change it?
[10:39] <daniele> mojo_o: so whit ubuntu is impossible to increase fsb? :(
[10:39] <Fenix1> so is there any point on putting up a dns server in a closed network
[10:39] <Fenix1> or web sitless company
[10:39] <athlan> Dr_Willis: i have to add, that the server i want to reach is a windows xp home box.
[10:39] <mojo_o> daniele: looks kinda dated though
[10:39] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  weird. if ip works.. connect via ip. then bookmark it. :) thats what i normally do
[10:40] <ido_> erUSUL: I've used it but it omits a lot of usage information is there a more SERIOUS disk analyzer
[10:40] <daniele> mojo_o: lfsb utility is a scaler?
[10:41] <erUSUL> ido_: you will have to say what usage information you want to see.
[10:41] <athlan> Dr_Willis: yeah, ok. i just hope the ubuntu developers go over the whole nautilus issue one time. i have this trouble since i use ubuntu. (8.04)
[10:41] <mojo_o> daniele: i don't see any software for linux for this
[10:41] <daniele> mojo_o: what does "kinda dated though" means?
[10:41] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  yep.. its quirky
[10:41] <mojo_o> daniele: just lfsb from 2005
[10:42] <domedagen> Felix1 this http://kontrollbolaget.wordpress.com/category/control-alt-delete/
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  ive not noticed the same issues under 9.10
[10:42] <erUSUL> ido_: afaics disk analizer can give you a overview of disk usage and "zoom" in to any folder in the system
[10:42] <daniele> mojo_o: whit lfsb so I can try to do something?
[10:42] <ido_> erUSUL:  Thanks! I will try it now :-)
[10:43] <athlan> Dr_Willis: how can you run 9.10? I thought its another 5 days...
[10:43] <daniele> mojo_o: how can I install it?
[10:43] <domedagen> Fenix1 will that do as an answer?
[10:43] <Iuly> hi everybody! Please, can someone help  me with Pidgin? I was searching info but can't run my yahoo mesenger account into Pidgin (Ubuntu 9.04) Thanks!
[10:43] <mojo_o> daniele: how old is your computer?
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  err... its been in alpha/beta for months. :)
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  its in RC stage now.
[10:43] <daniele> mojo_o: more than two years
[10:44] <bogdanbiv> Hello!
[10:44] <bogdanbiv> I have some problems upgrading my server to Karmic - it complains about a missing tzdata-java package in the repositories.
[10:44] <mojo_o> daniele: well if it's not more than say 4 then i don't think there's anything around
[10:44] <athlan> Dr_Willis: however, if they would have solved this issue, it would be in the release log, or the list of changes or so.
[10:44] <bogdanbiv> Could you help?
[10:45] <Padhu> luly: what you want?
[10:45] <daniele> mojo_o: modifing the kernel is possible to change fsb?
[10:45] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  no idea.  i never saw a specific bug with it.. it may been some quirk ith  windows they had to work around. ive only had the issue with some and not all windows machuines
[10:45] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  the change log is proberly a few gb in size. :)
[10:45] <Iuly> well, Pidgin is not working, can't open yahoo accounts in it! Happens since 8.10
[10:45] <daniele> mojo_o: so lfsb is unuseful for my pc?
[10:45] <ido_> erUSUL: Are you sure about the disk analyzer name? I can't google it.
[10:45] <Iuly> says connection lost, retry, and goes on ...but never connects
[10:46] <athlan> Dr_Willis: did you do an upgrade from jaunty? i am a little worried about this...
[10:46] <erUSUL> Iuly: you have to use a version >= 2.5.7
[10:46] <erUSUL> Iuly: yahoo changed protocol
[10:46] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  i always do clean installs
[10:46] <mojo_o> daniele: correct
[10:46] <erUSUL> ido_: i was talking about the one in accesories
[10:46] <ecm> its no good
[10:46] <ecm> i can only get in the main screen
[10:46] <athlan> Dr_Willis: but what about your files then?
[10:46] <ecm> were  choose the language
[10:47] <daniele> mojo_o: editing something in the kernel I can do it?
[10:47] <ecm> cant get passed the main screen
[10:47] <Iuly> ohh, I upgraded yesterday to 9.04, faught that Pidgin was ok now, I undeerstand, I will search 2.5.7
[10:47] <Iuly> thank you!!
[10:47] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  keep /home on its own partiions..and i got 2+tb of external usb disks :)
[10:47] <ecm> willis
[10:47] <erUSUL> Iuly: enable backports.
[10:47] <ecm> i get into the main screen
[10:47] <erUSUL> !backports | Iuly
[10:47] <ido_> erUSUL: no, I mean: afaics
[10:47] <ecm> but i dont no the 'X' button for the conoltrer on the keyboar
[10:48] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  read the docs for the emulaotr and remap your keys
[10:48] <erUSUL> ido_: sorry ;) afaics <--> as far as i can see
[10:48] <spaceBARbarian> how can i direct ubuntu to download all updates and packages from a server not listed in the software page ?
[10:48] <Iuly> thanks ! I will read
[10:48] <ecm> im using the PCSX
[10:48] <ecm> it has no docs
[10:48] <Dr_Willis> ecm:  it has docs... go find them.. check the web site/menus/forums i guess...
[10:48] <mojo_o> daniele: if you have to ask, i think not ;-)
[10:49] <athlan> Dr_Willis: hm, i dont have an extra /home partition, cause i never know how much space i will need there, besides, i want to have a dual boot windows/ubuntu.
[10:49] <ecm> remap??
[10:49] <ecm> how
[10:49] <bogdanbiv> I solved it with an apt-get update. Uh and I just saw there is an ubuntu-server channel.
[10:49] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  i dual boot also.  :) buti got 4 HD's
[10:50] <Dr_Willis> pcsx here has a rather logical 'configure' menu here.
[10:50] <athlan> Dr_Willis: and gparted seems to have trouble with too many partitions. it always wants to make an extended...
[10:50] <daniele> mojo_o: compile the kernel is unuseful too...true? i'm asking because I want to be sure if I've understand :P (i dont speak eng well)
[10:50] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  you can have 4 primaries..  if you need more then 4. one has to be an extended to hold logivals.
[10:50] <docmax> hi, i have a pulseaudio server.. but the volume is very low... alsamixer is at maximum.. any ideas?
[10:50] <mojo_o> daniele: you'd have to be a programmer to achieve what you want
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  i got  (windows) (linux /) (home) (swap)   normally  (4 primaries(
[10:51] <ecm> i acnt remp i ned help
[10:51] <TBird> athlan: thats a limit of MBR, not gparted, or anything else... if you want more, or partitions larger than 2tb, you need GPT
[10:51] <athlan> Dr_Willis: i got 2 windows, 1 swap, 1 ubuntu
[10:51] <Nexos> Hi. Just upgraded to karmic from Jaunty, and all videos (but flash ones, like youtube) lack the "red" part. Tried with mplayer, vlc for XVID,DivX and DVD. I use nvidia driver. Any idea what could cause this?
[10:52] <Nexos> I upgraded nvidia driver, with no success
[10:52] <bazhang> Nexos, #ubuntu+1 for karmic
[10:52] <daniele> mojo_o: i'm not so :p maybe is better if I change motherboard whit one which have fsb unloked...
[10:52] <athlan> Dr_Willis: id like to have 2 ubuntu, but its not possible without deleting windows
[10:52] <ido_> erUSUL: the disk usage analyzer only shows me 13.5 GB of the whole 105GB, and the df -h omits usage information just as well.
[10:52] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  or use extended/logical instead of primaries
[10:52] <mojo_o> daniele: but yes, recompling won't help you
[10:52] <preecher> can i install anothr distro on the same harddrive with my ubuntu 9.04 without having to reinstall u9.04?
[10:52] <Nexos> bazhang: OK thx
[10:52] <igama> preecher, yes
[10:53] <erUSUL> ido_: press the "scan filesystem" button
[10:53] <athlan> Dr_Willis: then it messes around with my windows partitions
[10:53] <erUSUL> ido_: ido_ or scan folder and you will see
[10:53] <daniele> mojo_o: tanks! a curiosity: what do you think about my english?
[10:53] <Xterm_> I have a 507 IR-reciver usb unit. It doesn't get recognized by lirc remote control shell. Does anyone know if there is a generic irc reciever package to insatall?
[10:53] <ecm> i need help
[10:53] <ecm> i cant remap it
[10:53] <mojo_o> daniele: your english is fine. you might want to re-ask another time. perhaps someone knows something i don't
[10:54] <daniele> mojo_o: ok :)  see you!
[10:54] <mojo_o> daniele: cya
[10:54] <athlan> Dr_Willis: youd recommend a clean install ... id have to backup everything.
[10:55] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  i always do clean installs.
[10:55] <ido_> erUSUL: that is what I did - "scan filesystem" only showed me a 13.5GB as my overall usage
[10:55] <athlan> Dr_Willis: btw, what do u think about ext4? did u notive any advantages?
[10:55] <Xterm_> I found a driver to my 507 ir reciever but how can i get it to autostart the driver when i connect the reciever to the usb port?
[10:56] <Getsuga> Hi Dr =)
[10:56] <cybic> hello everybody...
[10:56] <erUSUL> ido_: and ? is that worng ?
[10:56] <mojo_o> athlan: i hear there's a couple of nasty bugs in ext4 for now, best avoid it for a while
 YES, my HD is 105 HB big!
[10:56] <cybic> i'm looking for a solution: my acpi scripts are not starting automatically after pluging in my acdc adapter
[10:56] <igama> mojo_o, athlan , i've been using ext4 daily now for about 2 month, on my work machine. No problems to report
[10:57] <erUSUL> ido_: you can then see where the space is being used using the tree view in the left pane
[10:57] <athlan> mojo_o hm, ok. thanx for your advise
[10:57] <erUSUL> ido_: you can click in each folder and see the size etc
[10:57] <mojo_o> ido_: have you tried using the du utility to find out where the space is being used? like du -s *
[10:57] <erUSUL> ido_: but only 13,5 giB are bien used? or there is a misunderstanding here ?
[10:58] <nvicf> hello there, I'm having a problem, I've setup a new server with 4 nics, one for internet, the other three for 192.168.3.x,4.x,5.x respectively. 2 nics are 10/100, the other Gigabit and the onboard is also 10/100. When I try to copy trhough the server I keep getting resource not available (after starting copying), this only occurs when more than one PC is copying files. I've tried lots of things, mii-diag, ethtool, tcpdump, tracing the packets, it's everyth
[10:58] <athlan> igama do you notive any difference / advantage though?
[10:58] <athlan> igama do you notice any difference / advantage though?
[10:58] <mojo_o> igama: in the event of a crash you can end up with a zero length file on an opened file, not good: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4#Delayed_allocation_and_potential_data_loss
[10:58] <Getsuga> Which are better. Ext3 or Ext4? And why its better?
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> athlan:  i been using ext4 for some time with no issues
[10:58] <raven_> what are the files for kernel and ramdisk on an ubuntu-install-cd?
[10:59]  * cybic wondering how to make scripts start after pluging in my adapter? i've put them into /etc/acpi/battery.d/ and /etc/acpi/ac.d
[10:59] <Dr_Willis> raven_:  vmlinuz and initrd.gz normally if i rember right
[10:59] <skloer> is it possible to preserve the data on the rest of the drives on my hard disk, while I install ubuntu on the drive which is the primary partition ?
[10:59] <cybic> still not starting :(
[10:59] <mojo_o> i believe ext4 is faster. but i'll be waiting for the patched version
 You mean df -h? Yes I did. And it's says 54 GB are USED on the WHOLE disk and it gives me only details about like 9GB of the usage.
[11:00] <mojo_o> the wikipedia link i posted above says a lot
[11:00] <fahadsadah> Getsuga: ext4 is better.
[11:00] <Getsuga> Hmm
[11:00] <mojo_o> ido_: no i mean du -s .you mentioned you have 90GB of stuff and you don't know what or where it is?
[11:00] <igama> athlan yep, i see a speed improvement
[11:01] <Getsuga> Better than ntfs too?
[11:01] <cybic> nobody has ever worked with ACPI???
[11:01] <mojo_o> not on this side of the galaxy
[11:02] <ido_> mojo_o: du -s gives me the number 11353340
[11:02] <coz_> cybic,  if no one can answer here you might want to try the  ##linux channel
[11:02] <mojo_o> ido_: du -s *
[11:02] <athlan> igama remarkable or just a wee bit faster?
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> depends on what you are doing. :)
[11:03] <igama> Getsuga, ext4 is suposd to replace ext3, its the evolution :)
[11:03] <igama> Getsuga, in the Ubuntu 9.10, ext4 is the default file system now
[11:03] <igama> Getsuga, ext3 is better than ntfs
[11:03] <igama> ext2 is better than ntfs
[11:03] <igama> athlan remarkable
[11:03] <igama> athlan, on a fresh install of ubuntu 9.10 with ext4 i really saw a difference
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> a sharp stick in the eye is beter then ntfs...
[11:03] <FloodBot3> igama: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> :P
[11:03] <cybic> coz_, thanx, i'll gona pay the a visit :)
[11:04] <igama> athlan, and I'm using virtualmachine :)
[11:04] <coz_> cybic,  cool :)
[11:04] <raven_> Dr_Willis, ok tnx i'll try that
[11:05] <athlan> igama and you never had any trouble?
[11:05] <igama> athlan, i mean, im using virtualmachines on top of my ubuntu. they boot faster to
[11:05] <athlan> igama i see
[11:05] <mojo_o> ido_: oh by the way you can use du -sh * for more human readable output
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> ext4 cured my dogs mange.
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> :)
[11:08] <oobe> Dr_Willis, what is a dogs mange
 thanks, BUT it also omits almost all of the usage
[11:09] <yancho> guys - i have a rather strange problem. Whilst playing in Full screen, sometimes the window goes out from full screen and window mode. The keyboard locks itself and the only way out is to restart. I can move the mouse but just to change the view .. no pointer to be able to close the window. Happened on many games. Removed compiz since I taught it was the culprit to no avail. anyone can hint me what i can do please?
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> oobe:  a sickness where the dog looses his fur in patches. :)
[11:09] <oobe> aha
[11:09] <mikeym> Could someone tell me how I find my CFLAGS for my ubuntu system?
[11:09] <mojo_o> ido_: -s is summary, if you want to see individual files.. don't use the switch
[11:09] <oobe> i see how ext4 could fix that
[11:10] <oobe> mikeym, i dont know what you mean
[11:10] <kantor> hi, I'm working as a driver developer for embedded systems, and I would like to develop an embedded system simulator that could run on usual PC's (in your linux OS) and simulates a micro-controller, operating system . . . My question is: is such thing already available or not ?
[11:10] <mojo_o> ido_: or are you saying that the du doesn't show where the lost space is? you might need to run it sudo on / and so on
[11:10] <bazhang> kantor, which version of ubuntu
[11:11] <oobe> kantor, you wont find a definitive answer just individual opinions how ever i cant say i have heard of one
[11:11] <mikeym> I need to compile a toolchain on my Ubuntu machine and I don't know what CFLAGS gcc uses when compiling
[11:11] <Getsuga> Did Ext4 better than Dr_Willis?
[11:11] <mojo_o> ido_: you can also use the -c switch to produce a total
[11:11] <oobe> kantor, some virtual machine's might do this
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> Getsuga:  ive had no issues with ext4
[11:12] <Getsuga> Did Ext4 better than Dr_Willys?
[11:12] <conb123> Hiya my alacarte has not been working lately and i just did a reinstall and it says that it is using python3.0, i think it may be having compatibility issues is there anyway i can tell alacarte to install and use python2.6 by default
[11:12] <conb123> ?
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> Getsuga:  but if using it - you may want to  get a UPS.   of course a UPS is always a good idea
[11:12] <mikeym> oobe,  the CFLAGS variable is blank when I try it from the shell so I assume that it is set somewhere else
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> ext4 prevented my toaster oven from overloading
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> :)
[11:13] <Getsuga> Thanks Dr_Willys
[11:13] <Getsuga> ;)
[11:13] <mojo_o> reiserfs killed my toaster
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> ext4 ranks up thee with ShamWows and Titan Peelers!
[11:14] <mojo_o> shamWOWs you say? WOW
[11:14]  * mojo_o runs off to edit that into the ext4 wikipedia article
[11:15] <slacker_nl> somebody running hardy with the iwl3945 drivers loaded?
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> But if you act now - we will also include the new and improved  ..... ahh.. forget it.. :) nothing i can come up with willbe stranger then the actual products they advertise
[11:15] <cybic> coz_, still no solution - even on ##linux
[11:16] <kantor> oobe, actually for the beginning I would like to simulate only the software part. For instance in embedded systems there are tasks, basic functions that are recurring in every 10, 100 ms, 1s  . . . And every such task reads some inputs or sets some output pins . . . from time, to time triggers the watchdog . . . So for the beginning I want to simulate only that part the software. The basic work flow  of an embedded system
[11:16] <cybic> coz_, where could i get some help with acpi? ;)
[11:16] <coz_> cybic,   the  ##linux channel didnt help?
  I have tried now 'du -ch' as a root, and it gives me:             "11G       total"
[11:16] <coz_> cybic,  let me check hold on
[11:16] <Getsuga> So, reiserfs is slow?
[11:17] <Getsuga> But handy?
[11:17] <mojo_o> ido_: on / ?
[11:18] <coz_> cybic,  if you switch to the EFnet server and go to the #linux channel there... I bet they can offer some help
[11:18] <coz_> cybic,  are these suspend issues ?
 in what shell?
[11:19] <Getsuga> Takupas suda!
[11:19] <masquerade> hinga dunga!
[11:19] <mojo_o> ido_: any, just sudo du -sch /*
[11:20] <oobe> kantor, i dont know much about this stuff but sounds a bit like you want a disassembler
[11:21] <kantor> oobe, no
[11:21] <kantor> whatever . ..
[11:21] <oobe> yeah see i dont know
[11:21] <mojo_o> ido_: my sudo du -sch /* matches df -h
[11:22] <raven_> is there a tool like "filloutaform" (http://www.jdmcox.com/) for ubuntu?
 THANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSS it gave the information at last you are the best
[11:22] <oobe> kantor, i can tell you that ubuntu is just a linux distro meaning you can find answers to your question in many other support places
[11:22] <mojo_o> ido_: you can execute that command on other folders to pinpoint stuff, and no problem :-)
[11:23] <oobe> kantor, i do not wish to discourage you as driver development for open source software is very important i wish you the best of luck
[11:23] <Accidus> When trying to setup sound and video in skype, I deleted the /tmp/pulseaudio-* directories. Ever since sound has stopped on my machine. I've tried various troubleshooting (like  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting ) my ALSA information is on ( http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=8d2c9888d9036c89745ebc6dfd9aad1c8d472a34 ).
[11:24] <Accidus> May anyone point me at further troubleshooting procedures or perhaps suggest what could be the solution?
[11:24] <kantor> thanks . .  The problem is that I don't know if this would be useful . . . and I don't want to make it if it would be not used . . .
[11:24] <IpSe_DiXiT> hi! has anyone (with intrepid ibex 8.10) run the last kernel update 2.6.27-15? all ok after rebooting :D ?
[11:25] <cybic> coz_, oh yeh... gonna visit EFnet also soon ;)
[11:25] <coz_> cybic,  cool.... other than that I am sure which channels would deal with that specifically
[11:25] <gizero> In Jaunty you could quicly switch user by selecting the other user's name in the drop-down menu in the top-right corner of the screen. Now you have to choose Switch User... there instead and it brings you to the regular login dialog. This is so much slower. Why was this change made?
[11:26] <cybic> coz_, btw, nothing to do with suspend issues, but with the scripts just won't start after resume etc...
[11:26] <cybic> coz_, but i think... i see a solution... maybe i should look int /etc/pm and not /etc/acpi ;)
[11:27] <coz_> cybic,  ok cool  I hope you can get this one resolved :)
[11:27] <cybic> coz_, yeah, thx - it's linux - everything is possible ;)
[11:27] <coz_> cybic,  ")
[11:29] <kismet> i asked this before but.. is it normal that rhythmbox uses between 10-15% cpu while playing music
[11:31] <kismet> anyone there?
[11:31] <aftertaf> hope so :)
[11:31] <mojo_o> kismet: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gstreamer/+bug/73744
[11:32] <aftertaf> i have browser/facebook/flash issues : bad performance or crashes... anyone found a good way around this?
[11:32] <igama> aftertaf, ubuntu version?
[11:33] <aftertaf> right now, karmic.
[11:33] <igama> really? let me try ...
[11:33] <aftertaf> but exact same slowness and/or crashing on 9.4, 8.10 8.04 :(
[11:33] <aftertaf> flash games, to be precise
[11:33] <aftertaf> all my mates have much better scores than me (on windoze)
[11:34] <aftertaf> i have a double reputation to defend : (miine, and linux)
[11:34] <igama> aftertaf, ok
[11:34] <igama> the problem is really flash and linux
[11:34] <mojo_o> kismet: see post 23
[11:34] <Dr_Willis> problem is 'adobe and their lack of support for linux' :)
[11:34] <igama> adobe is still tring to give linux the same perfomance it has on windows
[11:34] <aftertaf> thought as much
[11:35] <Dr_Willis> but i will say in 9.10 its gotten better for me.. HuluDesktop is still slow/jerky however.
[11:35] <aftertaf> works really well with arora, but the chat window kills aroro stone dead : disappears
[11:35] <igama> aftertaf, try with opera
[11:35] <cybic> coz_, i got it :)
[11:35] <kismet> mojo_o: but pulseaudio ist just at around 0.5 %
[11:35] <mojo_o> kismet: also see post 32
[11:35] <coz_> cybic, cool :) what was the issue solution?
[11:36] <cybic> coz_, seems like every acpi script is working from /etc/pm and NOT from /etc/acpi lol
[11:36] <aftertaf> igama: oki thx
[11:36] <kismet> mojo_o: ok
[11:36] <coz_> cybic,  ok!
[11:36] <aftertaf> igama: will leave me with  . . . . .
[11:36] <waka> cybic, was following your question on linux as well glad u got answer
[11:37] <aftertaf> igama: 6 navigators :)
[11:37] <SunlessHalo> yo... I'd like to ask how shall i set so that my windows fat32 partition would mount at boot, but in readonly mode?
[11:37] <igama> lolol
[11:37] <stanio> j #backtrack-fr
[11:37] <stanio> #backtrack-fr
[11:37] <aftertaf> SunlessHalo: options in /etc/fstab . . . ..  you put ro instead or rw
[11:37] <Dr_Willis> SunlessHalo: put a proper entry for it in the /etc/fstab file with the right options
[11:37] <Dr_Willis> !windows
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> Hmm. what was that factoid
[11:38] <cybic> waka, thx :)
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> !fstab
[11:38] <mojo_o> kismet: i'm not sure but the fix in post 32 might require a reboot
[11:39] <kismet> mojo_o: the funny thing is i do not have an asound.conf in etc
[11:39] <cybic> waka, coz_ : works like a charm :) i think my system is right now a dream for me ;) with fingerprint for the root-password and 12-14 watt consumption wit wifi on :) i like linux :)
[11:39] <Azeotrope> my Pidgin doesn't show buddy's avatars in Yahoo!. Any idea why?
[11:40] <coz_> cybic,  very cool :)
[11:40] <mojo_o> kismet: heh. i guess it's for an older version
[11:40] <grawity> Azeotrope: What version of Pidgin?
[11:40] <Azeotrope> 2.5.5
[11:40] <kismet> mojo_o: :) i see
[11:40] <SunlessHalo> Dr_Willis: i haven't allowed mounting it yet, nor during the install.. also, there's no entry about the partition yet
[11:40] <grawity> Azeotrope: Try upgrading to 2.6.2... there are instructions at http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu
[11:40] <IpSe_DiXiT> hi! has anyone (with intrepid ibex 8.10) run the last kernel update 2.6.27-15? all ok after rebooting :D ?
[11:41] <Azeotrope> Thanks grawity
[11:41] <masquerade> IpSe_DiXiT: i hink they would not have released it if not. or is it a beta?
[11:42] <IpSe_DiXiT> masquerade: no no, the thing is that according to my experience some times it happened that after a kernel update the system was screwed up
[11:42] <masquerade> IpSe_DiXiT: yes, also had this problem twice
[11:42] <Accidus> Where can I get more help about troubleshooting pulseaudio? I tried the two official ones...
[11:42] <IpSe_DiXiT> masquerade: true is that in these very last distros there's supposed to be this new function that "automatically re-adjust" the system according to the new kernel
[11:43] <mojo_o> kismet: you could try here http://www.google.com/custom?q=cpu&domains=mail.gnome.org&hq=inurl%3A%2Farchives%2Frhythmbox-devel%2F&sitesearch=mail.gnome.org
[11:43] <IpSe_DiXiT> masquerade: but just to be sure, i ask around how it went :D
[11:43] <masquerade> IpSe_DiXiT: haha oke. well, i didnt upgrade yet. but you just reminded me of it, i will do so in about an hour
[11:43] <SunlessHalo> aftertaf: could you tell me what should I input into the fstab file?
[11:44] <kismet> mojo_o: thanks... i'll see if i can find any information... there
[11:44] <IpSe_DiXiT> masquerade: cool, let me no how it went :D
[11:44] <masquerade> IpSe_DiXiT: yet. but i dont think that i will remember your nickname :) simply write me when im back on, oke?
[11:45] <Azeotrope> grawity, if i compile pidgin from source i have to uninstall the old version?
[11:45] <IpSe_DiXiT> SunlessHalo: you're supposed to insert all the info about your hard drives, type, mountpoint and settings, open a terminal and type "man fstab"
[11:45] <IpSe_DiXiT> masquerade: sure mate :D eheheh
[11:45] <grawity> Azeotrope: Why do you need to compile it?
[11:45] <Azeotrope> grawity, i won't update
[11:46] <grawity> Azeotrope: I already gave you a link to precompiled packages.
[11:46] <Deathb4d> Hello
[11:46] <aftertaf> SunlessHalo: its automatically added.... edit your /etc/fstab file .. .  you see a line for your FAT32 partition?
[11:46] <Azeotrope> Yes, I know. Did everything there but pidgin doesn't appear in Update Manager
[11:46] <Deathb4d> I've been experiencing random freezing in Jaunty
[11:46] <Deathb4d> of the whole system
[11:46] <grawity> Azeotrope: Then you did it wrong :|
[11:46] <Deathb4d> At first it was when I was surfing firefox, then it started appearing without using firefox
[11:47] <Azeotrope> Grawity.... Yes. I didn't push the Check button.. It works now. Ty
[11:47] <docmax> i'm searching for a perfect minimalistic, small terminal font... can anyone suggest me something? thanks
[11:47] <Deathb4d> the first time it happened the reason was "Kernel Panic", weird numbers and some makhnath
[11:47] <SunlessHalo> aftertaf: no, there is no entry about my /dev/sda2
[11:48] <docmax> which font is this?
[11:48] <docmax> http://omploader.org/vMW90cA
[11:49] <cybic> oh... an interesting issue... anyone got freezes on system test in 9.10?
[11:49] <aftertaf> SunlessHalo: so its not mounted at boot?
[11:49] <aftertaf> i presumed so, sorry ;)
[11:49] <SunlessHalo> no it isn't ...
[11:49] <aftertaf> !mount
[11:50] <aldo> Hello, I get a weak sound on Dell Inspiron 1525 with Ubuntu, any idea on how to resolve this problem ?
[11:50] <SunlessHalo> is there a gui for mount setup?
[11:50] <aftertaf> not sure, but theres a command syntax that is good to be aware of, even if it seems complicated for you right now.
[11:50] <aldo> SunlessHalo: yes, DiskManager : http://www.galipe.net/articles/disk-manager-fstab-interface-graphique/
[11:50] <aftertaf> :)
[11:50] <mojo_o> aldo: do you have master & pcm both turned up?
[11:50] <aldo> mojo_o: I'll check
[11:51] <aftertaf> doit with GUI and see what it adds to fstab file
[11:51] <aldo> mojo_o: yes
[11:51] <aftertaf> cybic: not tried... karmic being stable for me since past 2 weeks
[11:51] <mojo_o> aldo: :-(

[11:52] <aftertaf> crippler: pulls in lots of dependencies
[11:52]  * SunlessHalo only knows French fleshly
[11:52] <aftertaf> not for minimal ;)
[11:52] <cybic> aftertaf, yeah - it's stable for me either... and there are no problems at all, except the system test tool :) goto: System->Administration->System Test
[11:52] <aftertaf> SunlessHalo: c pas grave, tu peux apprendre :)
[11:52] <aftertaf> you can learn :)

[11:55] <SunlessHalo> E: Balík disk-manager sa nedá nájsť
[11:55] <aftertaf> SunlessHalo: so, want to try in shell for your mount ?

[11:55] <aftertaf> you need to make a mountpoint, in /media usually
[11:55] <aftertaf> SunlessHalo: mkdir /media/[yourchoice]
[11:55] <mojo_o> aldo: did you try that link?
[11:56] <Sander> yeah
[11:56] <spaceBARbarian> how do i write files to my /var/www directory without having to use sudo ?
[11:56] <aftertaf> cybic: how about compiz? is it better? I removed it cos was slowing down my PC something rotten
[11:56] <Sander> i have done this in my teminal
[11:56] <Sander> sudo umount /media/cdrom0
[11:57] <cybic> aftertaf, it depends on your hardware i think :)
[11:57] <cybic> aftertaf, what kind of graphik card do you have?
[11:57] <Sander> and he said : umount: /: apparaat is bezig
[11:57] <Sander>         (Welke processen het apparaat gebruiken kan mogelijk
[11:57] <Sander>          gevonden worden met behulp van lsof(8) of fuser(1).)
[11:57] <Sander> umount: media/cdrom0: niet gevonden
[11:57] <Sander>  but it is dutch so dont knwo if u guys can read it :P

[11:58] <dragonkh> hey
[11:58] <aldo> mojo_o: the link for the sound ?
[11:58] <aftertaf> cybic: Nvidia 6800
[11:58] <aldo> mojo_o: I'm on it
[11:58]  * aftertaf requires Tea
[11:58] <aldo> mojo_o: but I already put all to 100%
[11:58] <mojo_o> aldo: with alsamixer?
[11:58] <aldo> mojo_o: and the sound is still weak
[11:59] <aldo> mojo_o: with alsamixer in a terminal and with the sound configuration panels from Gnome
[11:59] <aldo> mojo_o: all is 100%
[11:59] <cybic> hmm - should work well :-/ it has enough power to get everything out of 3d-compiz IMHO
[11:59] <mojo_o> aldo: all unmuted too i suppose? :-)
[11:59] <andreo> hi all, how can i configure network between windows and ubuntu?
[11:59] <cybic> aftertaf, maybe i don't have enough ram?
[12:00] <cHarNe2> andreo: filesharing or what?
[12:00] <cybic> aftertaf, or there is a problem with the driver
[12:00] <andreo> i can comunicate via wifi, but it is too slow, i need wired network
[12:00] <cybic> aftertaf, i have a X1300 bulti into my HP NC6400 with 128 MB GDDR :) it works very well :-/
[12:01] <mojo_o> aldo: anyway from what i can see, this has been a long existing bug with some audio chips..
[12:01] <aftertaf> cybic: it worked ok before, was in karmic when it went odd
[12:01] <cHarNe2> andreo: so whats the problem?
[12:02] <cybic> aftertaf, so, i suppose there is some trouble with the driver used...
[12:03] <cybic> aftertaf, maybe it'll get better after the release :)
[12:03] <keegangrayson> hey, I have a question... I'm running the latest ubuntu beta, once the official 9.10 release is out, will I get all the features just from the upgrades being pushed out?
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> keegangrayson:  Yes..
[12:03] <aftertaf> cybic: not tried since a couplaweeks, maybe will test again now :)
[12:03] <aldo> thanks all
[12:03] <mojo_o> aldo: you could add to /etc/modprobe.conf    options snd-hda-intel model=3stack
[12:03] <jrib> keegangrayson: karmic questions in #ubuntu+1 please, but yes
[12:03] <aftertaf> keegangrayson: yes
[12:03] <mojo_o> doh
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> thats a top 10 faq. :)
[12:04] <aftertaf> keegangrayson: automatic updates from internet, or manually with command line, synaptic, or other package managers
[12:04] <keegangrayson> mmk, so I'll have the same system as I would have from a fresh install even though it's the beta?
[12:04] <keegangrayson> oh sorry jrib, wasn't aware
[12:04] <keegangrayson> but it's 4 days away anyhow heh
[12:04] <mojo_o> !karmic
[12:05] <Dr_Willis> keegangrayson:  for the most part yes - thats how it is supposed to work. thats a main feature of the package manager system
[12:05] <aftertaf> ^ôfficially. but its sweet and running good here
[12:05] <keegangrayson> thanks, I've just been upgrading ubuntu from command line Dr_Willis
[12:05] <aftertaf> jrib: not strictly a karmic question, more about ubuntu in general
[12:06] <aftertaf> jrib:  (just being pedantic ;) )
[12:06] <Dr_Willis> keegangrayson:  the package manager system is still the same. Underneeth :)
[12:06] <aftertaf> keegangrayson: good for you, its always useful to know how to in case gui not available
[12:06]  * SunlessHalo reboot, brb
[12:06] <aftertaf> oki
[12:06] <frogzoo> heh, 4 days out doesn't mean it won't break your system - nor does out for 4 days, for that matter
[12:06] <aftertaf> frogzoo: :) totally
[12:07] <Psinetic> is there a more in-depth firewall i can use in ubuntu? gui based?
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> the guis are just front ends to the same iptables subsustem
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> !firewall | Psinetic
[12:07] <frogzoo> how much more depth you want, Psinetic?
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> Psinetic:  if you want total controll learn the cli tools
[12:08] <frogzoo> ufw sounds dirty...
[12:08] <Psinetic> i have firestarter, but it just doesn't do what i want. i want to be able to do all kinda of things with the ip's ports, everything, straight from the GUI
[12:08] <mojo_o> 2.6.31-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Oct 13 11:33:39 CEST 2009 x86_64
[12:08] <frogzoo> Psinetic: that's silly, anything you can do filtering wise can be done from a cli as well/better than a gui
[12:09] <yancho> from 6.06 to 9.04 i need to first upgrade to 8.04 right ?
[12:09] <athlan> hi! is there a way to synchronise the System Clock with the Internet?
[12:09] <jrib> !upgrade > yancho
[12:09] <Dr_Willis> 6.06? thats scary. :)
[12:09] <Psinetic> frogzoo, i like GUI's. I dont like command line. i'm trying to get away from that as much as possible. i know i have to use it anyways, but i'd rather use GUI if i can
[12:09] <jrib> yancho: 6.06 -> 8.04 -> 8.10 -> 9.04
[12:09] <Dr_Willis> !info ntp
[12:09] <yancho> thanks jrib  :)
[12:09] <keegangrayson> yeah Dr_Willis and aftertaf, the cli is nice, but how come you can't upgrade the kernel using apt-get update then apt-get upgrade?
[12:10] <frogzoo> yancho: doubt any upgrade will work for you from 6.06 - that's a very long shot
[12:10] <athlan> Dr_Willis: hi! is there a way to synchronise the System Clock with the Internet?
[12:10] <keegangrayson> you have to upgrade the kernel through the gui update manager in gnome in ubuntu
[12:10] <keegangrayson> or at least that's been my experience
[12:10] <dsdeiz> anyone using mitter? you guys know how can i set the default browser it would use? :-/
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> keegangrayson:  thats what 'apt-get dist-upgrade' is for perhaps?
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> keegangrayson:  i upgrade my kernel all the time via the cli
[12:11] <guntbert> athlan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime
[12:11] <yancho> frogzoo,  according to the tutorials it seems its possible :$
[12:11] <athlan> guntbert thx!
[12:12] <aftertaf> keegangrayson: you have a misunderstanding. CLI does exact same thing
[12:12] <guntbert> athlan: you are welcome :-)
[12:12] <aftertaf> keegangrayson: maybe only comes with dist-upgrade
[12:13] <frogzoo> yancho: $5 says you'll get at least some breakage, but you might get lucky & it's recoverable
[12:13] <SunlessHalo> re
[12:13] <jrib> keegangrayson: you didn't upgrade to 9.10 using apt-get upgrade/dist-upgrade did you?
[12:13] <nonix4> how was the color-enabled cousion of "top" named?
[12:14] <frogzoo> yancho: but everything before 7.4 say, upgrades were dicey
[12:14] <frogzoo> nonix4: htop ?
[12:14] <yancho> dicey meaning?
[12:14] <dsdeiz> do I export the path to my browser using the variable BROWSER to be able to set the default browser to use?
[12:14] <frogzoo> yancho: a long shot
[12:14] <yancho> i see
[12:14] <keegangrayson> nah jrib, I just downloaded the image from the torrent
[12:14] <jrib> !default | dsdeiz
[12:15] <nonix4> frogzoo: thanks, that's what I was looking for :)
[12:15] <Dr_Willis> nonix4:  htop
[12:15] <dsdeiz> jrib: oh, not using gnome here
[12:15] <keegangrayson> i get the CLI, i'm using it right now, just didn't know about apt-get dist-upgrade had to be used to update the kernel
[12:15] <jrib> dsdeiz: default for what then?
[12:15] <dsdeiz> default for mitter
[12:15] <keegangrayson> in fact i'm using xmonad and terminal's only, irssi + bitlbee = the best chat client
[12:15] <Dr_Willis> keegangrayson:  it dosent always have to be used.. its used to update packages that are 'held back'
[12:15] <dsdeiz> an twitter client
[12:15] <jrib> keegangrayson: man apt-get  explains the difference
[12:16] <jrib> dsdeiz: try update-alternatives --config x-www-browser   or similar
[12:17] <aftertaf> keegangrayson: cool :) you new to linux ?
[12:18] <aftertaf> Dr_Willis: why are some Held Back?
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> aftertaf:  magic?

[12:18] <Sensiva> Hello all , when an Ubuntu version reaches End of Life state, All its repos section doesn't get updated or upgraded, even backports and proposed updates?
[12:18] <keegangrayson> aftertaf: been using it about 3 years... just ubuntu recently
[12:18] <jrib> aftertaf: if you read the differences between "dist-upgrade" and "upgrade" in « man apt-get », it explains
[12:19] <abosamoor> how can you edit mp4 files ?
[12:19] <tim> Hi Guys - is there a way to permanently remove junk in Evolution while retaining non-junk mail in deleted items?
[12:19] <aftertaf> SunlessHalo: look here :  http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-4314.html
[12:19] <jrib> Sensiva: there are no guaranteed updates
[12:19] <SunlessHalo> UUID=7E6C-A689  /dos            vfat    utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[12:19] <SunlessHalo> that was my other windows partition... i didn't enabled the primary one for security reasons and now I'd like to enable it in read-only mode...
[12:19] <Younder> Wow back in ubuntu after a month of problems with gnome preventing me logging inn. Well now I know to change grub to use a fedora style setup to allow runtime 2 for simgle user text mode no network etc. and let gnome take runtlevel 5. That way I will never be in the predicament of having ro reinstall ubuntu just because the login screen clashes with a anew verion of gnome.
[12:19] <aftertaf> keegangrayson: ok cool
[12:19] <coz_> abosamoor,  not real sure... I do know there is conversion application named  handbrake  perhaps if you read about that it may have some editing solutions
[12:19] <aftertaf> jrib: thx, so much to read, so little time. will do now actually :)
[12:20] <Sensiva> jrib What do you mean with "guaranteed"?
[12:20] <keegangrayson> Younder: why wouldn't Ubuntu set it up that way to begin with? why not submit a bug?
[12:21] <aftertaf> jrib: "intelligently handles changing dependencies with new versions of packages" :)
[12:21] <jrib> Sensiva: it means you should upgrade to a supported version and not expect updates
[12:21] <aftertaf> i only every use dist-upgrade, actually
[12:21] <Younder> By the way, only allowing text login with a root account on a system that comes without one (or one with a password anyhow) is really lame.
[12:21] <Sensiva> Thank you
[12:22] <jrib> Younder: erm, what do you mean?  You can login with your default user...
[12:23] <jrib> Younder: s/default/any

[12:27] <aaron114> If anyone here is the chanel monitor I wanted to tell you that I want to be the count down manager for #ubuntu chanel. I will be recording each second and it will be anounced here. May I have the permission
[12:28] <guntbert> Younder: just press <enter> at the password prompt
[12:28] <mo0nykit> is NTFS write support in Ubuntu safe enough to be used on a daily basis?
[12:28] <Azeotrope> How can I add Windows to menu.lst? root    hd0,x)?  How do I find X?
[12:28] <jrib> aaron114: no, the channel will already be extremely busy (there will be something like #ubuntu-release-party for that sort of stuff)
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> aaron114:  err.. theres no set time for when it will be released.
[12:28] <system4041> mo0nykit yes
[12:28] <txomon> azeotrope I would use gparted
[12:29] <txomon> and it tells you
[12:29] <aaron114> umm isn't it released at 12:00 AM 29 October
[12:29] <jrib> aaron114: no
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> aaron114:  No...
[12:29] <txomon> for example sda5 means hd(0,6
[12:29] <aaron114> oh
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> aaron114:  i just said theres no set time. :)(
[12:29] <aftertaf> mo0nykit: yes, since a while now
[12:29] <mo0nykit> system4041: thanks. I've seen some warnings in the kernel make menuconfig about the NTFS write support. so that means the help text needs to be updated?
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> aaron114:  and theres been times in the past where the release has been delayed i recall
[12:29] <aftertaf> Azeotrope: to boot to windows or linux, multiboot choice you mean?
[12:29] <aaron114> Dr_Willis: do you know who is the site manager
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> aaron114:  no idea.
[12:30] <txomon> yes he means
[12:30] <Azeotrope> aftertaf, yes.
[12:30] <Azeotrope> Gparted shows /dev/sda3
[12:30] <aaron114> Thanks for your help

[12:31] <txomon> can you help me?
[12:32] <aftertaf> txomon: a home vpn? argh !
[12:32] <jrib> Younder: that would only happen if you did set a root password yourself.  By default, recovery mode won't prompt you for a password
[12:32] <Azeotrope> aftertaf, thanks
[12:32] <txomon> yes aftertaf...
[12:32] <unimatrix9> hi there
[12:32] <Younder> guntbert, anyhow it is a mute point now. I have reinstalled ubuntu and set up the grub bootsequene to I can set the runlevel to 2 for single user text without network and 3 for with network. So I will hopefully never be apinted into a corner again.
[12:32] <SunlessHalo> Dr_Willis: what is the UUID i have to use?
[12:32] <unimatrix9> whats the difference between moblin remix and netbook remix?
[12:33] <aftertaf> txomon: http://www.umflint.edu/helpdesk/articles/255/1/How-to-Set-up-VPN-from-Home-for-Linux-Ubuntu/Page1.html
[12:33] <jrib> Younder: you also didn't need to reinstall, you could have just edited your grub line or used a live cd
[12:33] <unimatrix9> any tips are welcome
[12:33] <aftertaf> txomon: i have NO experience in that, sorry . . . tried a google
[12:33] <unimatrix9> whats the difference between moblin remix and netbook remix?
[12:34] <unimatrix9> hmm, nobody knows..

[12:39] <db92> i have bought a print server so i can share my printer on both my windows pcs and my current linux one,  but the print server by itself didnt have any linux drivers ;/ i have now installed the windows ones through wine, which seem to be working pretty well as a piece of software, but there is an error: "usb server bus does not exist. please blabla", anyone know of something i can do for this? i have seen relevant problems and their solutions on their forums but
[12:39] <db92>  they were exclusive to that specific piece of hardware :///// my print server is tp-link tl-ps310u
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> db92:  check cups.org about that device see if theres some info onit there.
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> Ive never heard of 'printer drivers' working through wine
[12:40] <MerlinW> sajith: i recommend alsa on Hardy
[12:41] <db92> Dr_Willis, i have the printer drivers, the problem is the print server which shares the printer on the network
[12:41] <SunlessHalo> Dr_Willis: what should I enter for options, dump and pass?
[12:42] <db92> there is nothing about that on cups, i have found only my printers drivers there and i have them working atm, if i plug the printer on my box
[12:42] <db92> but then its not shared and i cant access it through my other pcs ;PP
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> SunlessHalo:  same as the other line you got for the  other windows partition
[12:43] <SunlessHalo> Dr_Willis: but my intention is to mount it as read-only
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> SunlessHalo:  then you use some different options, 'ro' perhaps..  for read only
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> SunlessHalo:  the vfat mount options are documented in the fstab and mount man pages i recall
[12:44] <hrbllv66> if I istall Ubuntu 9.10 RC will it upgrade to 9.10 distro release

[12:44] <hrbllv66> ty BlouBlou
[12:44] <SunlessHalo> Dr_Willis: tell me the command pls, I'll try to find out
[12:44] <jrib> Younder: I don't see how a live cd wouldn't work.  My suggestion with the grub line referred to setting init to /bin/bash
[12:44] <BlouBlou> hrbllv66: no problem
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> SunlessHalo:   man fstab  :)
[12:45] <dafdu> somebody can help me please ?????

[13:06] <Psinetic> hey guys, i'm in ubuntu 9.04. i'm trying to embed my terminal in my desktop via this tutorial: http://ubuntu-unleashed.blogspot.com/2007/08/howto-completely-transparent-shell-on.html. but when i do it and i go into compiz and put "!title=trans" it just does this for all windows. how do i fix this?
[13:06] <MenZa> IdleOne: Pardon?
[13:06] <Koterpillar> [V]ortex`, there's been some internet explorer implementation in wine, but i could never get it to work
[13:06] <IdleOne> MenZa: [09:04:47] <IdleOne> Ultimate: follow that link ubottu gave you it gives info on becoming a member and later an OP IF they ask you.
[13:06] <[V]ortex`> Koterpillar: can you explain "fake user-agent"?
[13:06] <MenZa> IdleOne: You don't need to be a member to have ops. :)
[13:06] <Ultimate> No other way of acquiring op rights
[13:06] <Psinetic> MenZa, idleone said that they could be an OP that way only if the admins request it
[13:07] <IdleOne> MenZa: it helps
[13:07] <Koterpillar> [V]ortex`, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59 - but i doubt it'll work in your case
[13:07] <Psinetic> anyways, i'm having a problem, anyone help?
[13:07] <MenZa> IdleOne: Sure. Generally, it's better to simply show that you're capable of using IRC, you govern the CoC and IRCGuidelines and you're generally a good person. I'm an op, but not a member.
[13:07] <MenZa> IdleOne, Psineti, Ultimate: This is straying off-topic though :)
[13:08] <Psinetic> Psinetic**
[13:08] <MenZa> Psinetic: My apologies. Bad tabbing + backspace.
[13:08] <Ultimate> MenZa: Thanks a lot
[13:08] <Psinetic> :P
[13:08] <Psinetic> With a wink Ultimate, with a wink ;)

[13:12] <Azeotrope> Anyone knows where is the folder i can put multiple .torrent files so transmission-daemon autoupload them?
[13:12] <grawity> It's a Winamp clone, IIRC... so it must have an eq.
[13:12] <MenZa> ^5 grawity
[13:12] <smyras> k
[13:12] <Azeotrope> I donwload something by uploading the torrent in the web GUI but the next reboot it forgets the torrent. Empty list
[13:12] <ManDay> Ok, does it also support playing streaming music?
[13:12] <smyras> halo polonia
[13:12] <smyras> polacco
[13:12] <smyras> ;p
[13:12] <ManDay> Because I remember something put me off the first time i tried it. maybe it didnt support streaming?

[13:24] <Ultimate> how to obtain a cloak
[13:24] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: that just expands the screen; how do i make the webpage itself bigger? i'm increasing hte font sizes of words as a workaround
[13:24] <Ultimate> how to obtain a cloak
[13:25] <mobi-sheep> Ultimate of Calcutta, West Bengal, India -- ubottu and grawity gave you the answers -- Please take time to read them.  Thank you.
[13:25] <DJones> Ultimate: You need to join the #freenode channel and ask about registering your nickname and then ask about an unaffiliated cloak
[13:25] <Ultimate> i have
[13:25] <mobi-sheep> [V]ortex`: Change the font size in preferences?  I'm not sure if that's a workaround or an actual solution.
[13:25] <DJones> Ultimate: They'll help you through the process, its only the freenode staff that can deal with cloaks
[13:26] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: that's a workaround; is there a way to auto resize the page (so that the blank parts are gone, and the width of hte text is used up?)
[13:27] <mobi-sheep> [V]ortex`: I don't know.  You need to take a look in all settings. I use Firefox (with chrome theme!)
[13:28] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: how do i do that in firefox? fit to page i mean?
[13:28] <lala-test> hi, im searching for a way to hide my proxy information being shown on irc
[13:28] <Tiders> How can I check how many users are logged into my server from the command line
[13:28] <grawity> Tiders: 'w'
[13:28] <grawity> Tiders: Also 'who'
[13:28] <[V]ortex`> lala-test: get a cloak
[13:28] <grawity> lala-test: In freenode? Ask for a cloak in #freenode.
[13:28] <zhxk`> hi, i have a solution to make direct udp connection between two client that behind separate nat boxes or firewalls, the successfull direct connection over 99 percent, anybndy want get the source code, please pm me.
[13:29] <lala-test> ok, a cloack...
[13:29] <Tiders> grawity Will this show people who are port forwarding also?
[13:29] <lala-test> no not in freenode but in general
[13:29] <grawity> Tiders: Only if they have a shell session active.
[13:29] <lala-test> ircproxy is too complicated for me
[13:29] <Tiders> grawity How can I see users who have a port opened using ssh -D
[13:29] <[V]ortex`> how do i auto fit page to fill screen in browser?
[13:29] <grawity> Tiders: You could ps $(pgrep sshd), but that will list _all_ SSH connections.
[13:30] <Ultimate> heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[13:30] <Ultimate> heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
[13:30] <Tiders> grawity, So what of that would I type?
[13:30] <mobi-sheep> ActionParsnip: I'm throwing you some <3 right now.
[13:30] <Ultimate> n=bennettj@cpe-69-205-231-0.stny.res.rr.com
[13:30] <grawity> Tiders: You cannot do what you want. Either 'w' for all interactive logins, or 'ps $(pgrep sshd)' for all SSH sessions (including non-interactive).
[13:30] <Ultimate> can i get the later part like this
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> hi mobi-sheep
[13:30] <[V]ortex`> how do i shift the top panel to the bottom?
[13:30] <Ultimate> how how how
[13:31] <mobi-sheep> [V]ortex`: Hold the ALT -- Drag and move.
[13:31] <Scuttle> Hm...I'm having trouble installing 9.04 from the minimal cd. The installer starts, but after assigning hostname, it says "The installer failed to download a file from the mirror". Gives me te choice of retrying or using another mirror, neither works...
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Ultimate: copy and paste it?
[13:31] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: thanks
[13:31] <snuffy47> how do you allow users to move a folder within a share
[13:31] <Tiders> grawity, But I cant see which user is actually logged in with this ssh one?
[13:31] <lala-test> im searching a way to hide my proxy information while chatting in an irc room, but not on freenode
[13:31] <Ultimate> ActionParsnip: How to do that ???
[13:31] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: how do i merge 2 panels into 1?
[13:31] <grawity> Tiders: Well, to me it shows things like "sshd: grawity@pts/9"
[13:31] <[V]ortex`> lala-test: depends on the server
[13:31] <Tiders> grawity, Oh yeah true.. thanks
[13:32] <grawity> [V]ortex`: Remove panel 1, add items to panel 2
[13:32] <mobi-sheep> Ultimate: #freenode can cloak the IP for you -- not #ubuntu
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> snuffy47: put them in a group then give the group full access to the folder
[13:32] <AhmedGogan> is it illegal to use anonymous proxy servers ?
[13:32] <raven_> is there a tool like "filloutaform" (http://www.jdmcox.com/) for ubuntu?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> Ultimate: its just text so copy and paste it as text
[13:32] <lala-test> [V]ortex isnt there a plugin solution or something else?
[13:32] <AhmedGogan> ??
[13:32] <[V]ortex`> grawity: panel 1 items have apps, places, system, panel 2 items have opened windows
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> AhmedGogan: it may be in some countries
[13:32] <Ultimate> hey
[13:32] <Ultimate> dat doesn work
[13:33] <[V]ortex`> lala-test: get a vpn
[13:33] <Ultimate> give me the exact command or way
[13:33] <lala-test> ok, thx vortex
[13:33] <vox> Ultimate: this is for ubuntu support. if you want a clock, ask in #freenode, not in here.
[13:33] <AhmedGogan> so does it voilates the google TOS ?
[13:33] <chiccozz> hello
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Ultimate: isnt the latter part: cpe-69-205-231-0.stny.res.rr.com   ?
[13:33] <grawity> Okay, I'll give you the damn command...
[13:33] <[V]ortex`> grawity: how do i insert opened windows onto the first panel?
[13:33] <grawity> !ops | Ultimate (lamer)
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> AhmedGogan: you'll have to read it to check
[13:33] <Tiders> I ask this almost every day but nobody seems to know so Im just going to ask again... Does anyone know a way to make it so that I can have a taskbar on my second display which is in twinview (only single X screen)
[13:34] <AhmedGogan> ok
[13:34] <mobi-sheep> [V]ortex`: You will have to move all those little things on top panel to bottom panel (Right-click and move).  Then afterward, delete the top panel.
[13:34] <AhmedGogan> thnx action man
[13:34] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: thanks
[13:34] <lala-test> have fun here
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Tiders: you could have a second x server there i guess and have a task bar there
[13:34] <carbm2> Tiders, you should be able to add a new panel and pull it to that monitor.
[13:34] <MenZa> Ultimate: You may want to adjust your attitude slightly.
[13:34] <Tiders> carbm2, How would I pull it to that monitor?
[13:35] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: i cannot move the apps/places/system menus
[13:35] <Scuttle> Hm...I'm having trouble installing 9.04 from the minimal cd. The installer starts, but after assigning hostname, it says "The installer failed to download a file from the mirror". Gives me the choice of retrying or using another mirror, neither works...
[13:35] <vxl10> hello
[13:35] <chiccozz> hi some one can help me to know how i can fix an error that make me unable to run ubuntu after i install nvidia drivers ? ..
[13:35] <mobi-sheep> [V]ortex`: Right-click (Unlock).  Then again, right-click (Move0.
[13:36] <chiccozz> or some one can tip me a way to install gpu drivers ?
[13:36] <mobi-sheep> Scuttle: The machine is not connected to the Internet?
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: whats the error?
[13:36] <MenZa> chiccozz: Which card do you have?
[13:36] <Scuttle> mobi-sheep: it is, it gets IP, I can ping from one of the consoles
[13:36] <chiccozz> i got a old ge force mx
[13:36] <mobi-sheep> Scuttle: What mirror are you using?
[13:36] <MenZa> chiccozz: It *should* give you the option to install it on your first boot - System -> Administration -> Hardware drivers.
[13:37] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: it only can be moved to the right of the panel; i want to move it to the left without crushing my open windows
[13:37] <Scuttle> hm, looks like debian.lth.se
[13:37] <mobi-sheep> [V]ortex`: Your open windows won't be crushed.  The applets will swap around or whatnot. If they won't move, you need to unlock them all and move around freely to what you like.
[13:38] <dyf> hello.. i'm using eclipse to develop programs in java.. i want to use Sun java instead of OpenJDK, i have both installed but eclipse only sees openJDK.. how do i make sun java the default machine?
[13:38] <MenZa> chiccozz: Please keep your support request in here.
[13:38] <MenZa> !pm | chiccozz
[13:38] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: ok thanks
[13:38] <carbm2> Tiders, good point... I'm not on my dual monitor setup right now and I don't remember at the moment. However, It wasn't that hard though. I just moved one of my panels over but I don't remember how now.
[13:38] <chiccozz> ok sorry
[13:38] <chiccozz> its my frist time
[13:38] <MenZa> chiccozz: Have you tried rebooting your system?
[13:38] <mobi-sheep> Scuttle: Try a different mirror. I'm not even sure if you're trying to install Ubuntu in first place.
[13:39] <chiccozz> y i do
[13:39] <mobi-sheep> !java | dyf
[13:39] <Tiders> carbm2, I actually got it figured out... I never realised you had to "unexpand" the panels and then can drag them
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: you'll need the 71 driver
[13:39] <chiccozz> but when i run ubuntu graphic drivers seems dont work
[13:39] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: my open windows disappeared after i shifted one icon down to the bottom panel
[13:39] <Scuttle> mobi-sheep: I downloaded the x86 iso from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[13:39] <chiccozz> all sorrt for my english
[13:39] <Scuttle> and how do I sawp mirror?
[13:39] <Scuttle> swap
[13:39] <MenZa> chiccozz: Does the machine have internet access?
[13:40] <chiccozz> sure
[13:40] <mobi-sheep> [V]ortex`: "killall gnome-panel" should fix it -- You may have some compiz issues.
[13:40] <chiccozz> im on it now
[13:40] <MenZa> chiccozz: So you're using different drivers right now?
[13:40] <chiccozz> now i havent any drivers
[13:40] <chiccozz> infact im on 800 x 600 resolution
[13:40] <MenZa> Right - could you pastebin /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[13:40] <mobi-sheep> [V]ortex`: Nothing will disappear. If you don't see any open windows -- then you need to add "windows list" applet to the panel.
[13:40] <chiccozz> right now
[13:40] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: i disabled fancy appearances
[13:40] <MenZa> ActionParsnip: How's your knowledge with older nvidia drivers? :)
[13:41] <mobi-sheep> Scuttle: I see -- but the mirror link you supplied -- is weird.
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> MenZa: ok i guess, sup
[13:41] <mobi-sheep> Scuttle: Retry -- Go back -- Try a different mirror.  (archive.ubuntu.com) is a good one (generic).
[13:41] <McGyver> hello everybody! I'm having a small problem, and i'll try to explain it in a few words, hoping that someone can help me....
[13:41] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: ok, now i can't move the help icon
[13:41] <McGyver> xdriinfo
[13:41] <McGyver> isn't working on my computer
[13:41] <MenZa> ActionParsnip: I'm planning on getting his xorg.conf; if I don't see anything obvious, I was going to suggest nvidia-xconfig. If that doesn't work, I'm in the dark.
[13:42] <McGyver> the error report says libgl too old
[13:42] <L3dPlatedLinux> ok I have added the sudo mount -t  nfs 192.168.2.10:/mnt/linuxnas3 /home/led/Linuxnas    .....but my question is I dont want to have to type the root pass every time how would i get this done
[13:42] <mobi-sheep> [V]ortex`: Unlock it, move.  Same protocol.
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> MenZa: i'll have a look too, xoerg.conf rocks
[13:42] <McGyver> i updated libgl to 7.6.0
[13:42] <MenZa> ActionParsnip: Considering he's currently on vesa, I doubt any issues with the nvidia module would show, though. <_<
[13:42] <MenZa> ActionParsnip: excellent, collaboration! ^5
[13:42] <[V]ortex`> mobi-sheep: ok thanks
[13:42] <McGyver> but the problem still remain
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> MenZa: true as the driver would state nvidia

[14:10] <[V]ortex`> hello how do i rename the "applications" button to just "apps"?
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> WilliamC2: the files should be identical so the removal should pull them out, you will need to switch your xorg.conf to the vesa or nv driver or you wont get an x server
[14:11] <guntbert> [V]ortex`: right click on it, edit menus - properties

[14:23] <sekura> i think you're familiar with the ATI drivers problems, from 9.04 (sluggish, slow minimize, etc). i am experiencing the same issue, and i would like to know what are my best alternatives. The no-backfill patch resolves it but it's still slow compared to my specs. I'm thinking on using ubuntu only (or other linux distro), no more windows, but for that i need the full power of my laptop. What's my best shot? interested in: radeon dri
[14:23] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: the window list applet is set to expand the whole bar.. i'm unsure if you can change that setting.
[14:23] <krew> I Can install Ubuntu on MICRO-SD?
[14:23] <chiccozz> ubunt tell me to change somethin like a X setting or sometin like that sure sorry action=)!
[14:23] <[V]ortex`> analyser: does the autohide option not autohide the panel? i want to expand it?
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> krew: if the kernel can see is and its partitions, sure
[14:24] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: ok thanks; i worked around it before by having 2 panels but they were just ugly
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: ok did you run: sudo nvidia-xconfig
[14:24] <analyser> [V]ortex`: I'm using autohide on both bars, top and down, to increase workspace area
[14:24] <chiccozz> yes action
[14:24] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: have you thought of having a dock?
[14:24] <skullhacks> Hello.
[14:24] <analyser> [V]ortex`: attache another screen helps too ;)
[14:24] <guntbert> !hi | skullhacks
[14:25] <[V]ortex`> analyser: i dont want to expand workspace area; i want my bar to have more 'free' space so that more windows can expand onto wihtout being squeezed
[14:25] <chiccozz> and it say nvidia-glx 173 180 and 96
[14:25] <monoxxx> :)
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: ok do you use a CRT monitor?
[14:25] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: can you explain more about a dock?
[14:25] <VXxed> Well, #ubuntu+1 was only minorly helpful.  Can I control laptop fan speeds in Ubuntu? And how can I figure out how to use the buttons on the face of the tablet screen?
[14:25] <chiccozz> yea
[14:25] <[V]ortex`> analyser: haha ok but i figure that'll invite more problems
[14:25] <skullhacks> I downloaded ubuntu-netbook-remix but I cant find the drivers for Atheros and dont know if I should try madwifi. Helpz.
[14:26] <skatan> how to change STA broadcom driver with B43 ??
[14:26] <skullhacks> I installed it in my netbook with a flash drive.
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: ok i'll send you my xorg.conf you can try
[14:26] <guntbert> VXxed: that kind of thing changes rapidly - so keep to #ubuntu+1 please
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: i use CRT so this may sort you out
[14:26] <chiccozz> ok
[14:26] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: example. cairo-dock (i prefer) or Avant Window Navigator.. http://developer.berlios.de/screenshots/?group_id=8724  ..a few screenshots to look at
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: http://pastebin.com/f1b89eb11
[14:26] <analyser> i'm going study, bye dudes
[14:27] <VXxed> guntbert: With both issues?
[14:27] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: those screenshots are a bit old and have been 'much' improved upon now.
[14:27] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: then where do my open apps windows go?
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: some CRT dont tell the OS what it can and cant do so the driver doesnt kick in until it gets told the refresh rates and rresolutions
[14:27] <[V]ortex`> like tabs?
[14:27] <chiccozz> ok so i have to replace all these infos in my xconfig file ?
[14:27] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: to the dock.
[14:27] <VXxed> gunbert: I figured at the very least, I'd be able to figure out how to gain control of face buttons from here, since there's more people
[14:27]  * Szajbus is now away: www.szajbus.eu Se me There
[14:28] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: so like i wont be able to see them?
[14:28] <guntbert> VXxed: if you are on karmic, yes - both are hardware related I guess
[14:28] <aaron111> Can someone tell me a way to test my Ekiga
[14:28] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: did you even look at the screen shot page?
[14:28] <VXxed> guntbert: Alright, I shall do as you say.  Thanks
[14:28] <orange--> Why does synaptic darken the screen and take about a minute to present a box saying "mark additional required changes"? Should this take a split second? Is it using brain dead search algorithms taking O(N3) time?
[14:28] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: yes, my impression of that is like a mac dock? a favourites for quick clicking? is that wrong?
[14:29] <scunizi> aaron111: you have to call someone.. I haven't been able to get the echo server to work lately..
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: backup your current one then paste the text in mine to yours to replace the whole thing
[14:29] <guntbert> VXxed: not to brush you off, but advice for jaunty might not apply to karmic
[14:29] <aaron111> scunizi: do you know any testing servers for VOIP
[14:29] <chiccozz> ok ill do
[14:30] <UnluckyJonas> guys, help me please!!!! I have tried to convert my home partition from ext3 to ext4. according to the instructions i got, i have changed etc/fstab file by switching "ext3" to "ext4" near my partition. now the system can't mount it, the reinstallation doesn't help. that is extremely important for me as i save my files for studies here. Please!
[14:30] <VXxed> guntbert: I understand, I just didn't realize that the jump between jaunty and karmic was that big, since they were both still 9.x
[14:30] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: that is somewhat correct. it can also house the new apps you just opened. it would expand accordingly. if you minimize them then you would click their icon in the dock to re-open them. the dock could have just 1 icon then you start opening things and they would populate the dock
[14:30] <scunizi> aaron111: other than ekiga's 500@eekiga.net .. no .. not off the top of my head.. BUT you could google for gizmo echo server
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> UnluckyJonas: restore from bacup then
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> *backup

[14:30] <skatan> how to change STA broadcom driver with B43 ?????
[14:31] <cybic> still don't know how to execute "xset m 4" automatically on startup (ubuntu 9.10) - any hints? :)
[14:31] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: i see, thanks for the explanation; does this dock need compiz? i disabled unnecessary pizzazz
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> !broadcom | skatan
[14:31] <UnluckyJonas> ActionParsnip, i have no backups.... :(
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> UnluckyJonas: dadta is disposable then
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> *data
[14:31]  * ActionParsnip can't type
[14:31] <guntbert> VXxed: I don't know for sure too - but the version number is just the year :)
[14:31] <sekura> ok, i'll start a different approach. What are the downsides of using an older version ob ubuntu? say 8.10 (that doesn't have ATI issues). How will it affect new software, will i get prompted everytime for updates that will ultimately lead to indirect 9.04 conversion?
[14:32] <UnluckyJonas> really???
[14:32] <UnluckyJonas> oh God........
[14:32] <skatan> how to remove STA broadcom driveer ????
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> UnluckyJonas: well if you cared about it you'd back it up
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> UnluckyJonas: could try telling fstab o mount it as ext3
[14:32] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: yes, although youc an tune compiz down to do almost nothing but still have the dock..  maybe you would like AWN it does slightly less eye candy and still does the same for what you're wanting.
[14:32] <TheTom> People say 'ubuntu just works' Well, it doesn't. will all audio issues be fixed with 9.10?
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> well, just manually mount it as ext3 to test
[14:33] <UnluckyJonas> if i knew how to cary, i would back it up...
[14:33] <erUSUL> UnluckyJonas: change ext4 back to ext3 in the fstab line ?
[14:33] <Dr_Willis_> TheTom:   people say the same about windows.. and it dosent either...
[14:33] <cybic> TheTom, havent found any special issues...
[14:33] <UnluckyJonas> yes.
[14:33] <scunizi> sekura: you won't get an indirect conversion to the next release.. 8.10 however is EOL in April of 2010
[14:33] <joni> Hi , can someone help me with my problem ,  two monitor and ubuntu
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> TheTom: with creative sucking as hard as they do and people still buying them it will be a long time
[14:33] <scunizi> sekura: then you'll be forced to upgrade
[14:33] <Shapeshifter> humm. karmic is a bit broken.
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> TheTom: if yuo shop smart then any linux will just work
[14:34] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: back in a bit.. the wife has breakfast ready.
[14:34] <TheTom> Dr_Willis_: true dat. but it's a bit sloppy that a user can't expect to have sound working 'just like that'
[14:34] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: i'm currently having problems wiht jerky sound, which i think is due to compiz and firefox cpu loads; so i'm not sure if it's wise to add docks? comments?
[14:34] <skatan> hot to remove STA broadcom driver ?????/
[14:34] <aaron111> Shapeshifter: Talk about karmic at #ubuntu+1
[14:34] <Bilge> How can I get a list of packages that a given package depends upon for installation?
[14:34] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: ok, thanks for all your help so far
[14:34] <Shapeshifter> aaron111: right.

[14:34] <TheTom> my sound got a bit better after i removed pulseaudio, but still, i can't play mpd while using flash in a browser.
[14:34] <quimu> Las mejores inversiones del mundo las podeis encontrar en http://www.invertired.com . Traders profesionales y profesionales de diferentes sectores a vuestro servicio.
[14:34] <sekura> so until then, i will have no problems with software that works just as well on 9.04 and 9.10?

[14:35] <guntbert> quimu: not here please
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> Bilge: you can look on http://packages.ubuntu.com
[14:35] <scunizi> TheTom: get real.. you can't have sound working "just lie that" in windows without installing the drivers for .. the motherboard, usb, audio, video, etc etc etc.. but I'm offtopic
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> Bilge: each package shows its deps

[14:35] <TheTom> scunizi: yes you are.
[14:35] <TheTom> i'm real
[14:35] <cap333> are there any plans to release the new version of tellico in ubuntu 9.10?
[14:35] <skatan> hot to remove STA broadcom driver ?????/
[14:36] <cybic> anybody tried to execute something automatically in ubuntu? during the boot? i need to execute "xset m 4" - where should i save it?
[14:36] <aaron111> cap333: #ubuntu+1 Please
[14:36] <sekura> scunizi: so until then, i will have no problems with software that works just as well on 9.04 and 9.10?
[14:36] <[V]ortex`> what is the alt+tab equivalent of 9.04?
[14:36] <erUSUL> UnluckyJonas: first; try to mount the parition from a livecd to see if everything is still there and ok
[14:36] <skatan> ok i will try later
[14:37] <skatan> :)
[14:37] <skatan> thanks
[14:37] <scunizi> sekura: are you planning on doing a fresh install of 8.10 or 8.04?.. are you downgrading and keeping your /home?
[14:37] <guntbert> [V]ortex`: alt+tab works
[14:37] <chiccozz> anction sorry but i did not understand what i have to copy from youre to mine .. i mean the xorg.conf file
[14:37] <[V]ortex`> guntbert: to the other workdesk? is there a shortcut?
[14:38] <escucho> there is an italian ubuntu channel?
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: ALL
[14:38] <WiresAP> Hello!
[14:38] <chiccozz> ok but it say i cant save i have no permission why ?
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: yuo copy your file to make a backup then copy all of my xorg.conf and replace yours
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: because you didnt use gksudo when you opened it
[14:39] <chiccozz> gksudo? >.<
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: you opened it as a user which does not have write access to /etc
[14:39] <sekura> scunizi: no, i'll do a fresh reinstall, i just want it to have a fast operating system (9.04 is sluggish due to ATI problems). And at the same time, i want to have all the benifits of 9.04 and 9.10 software (not necesarily technology). i don't want to be forced to use old applications cause new ones don't support 8.x anymore.

[14:39] <aaron111> Hello I have Ekiga and wants to try to test call (Echo) but when I try to test call, it just hangs up. Im using ubuntu 9.04 and ekiga 3.00

[14:39] <chiccozz> ah ok so how can i open it to modify ?
[14:39] <chiccozz> ok well
[14:40] <orange--> is there a command to tell me what the cpu speed is?
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: that command will allow you to savwe as the gedit process is running with elevated priveledges
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> chiccozz: do NOT run gedit with sudo EVER. You WILL break stuff
[14:40] <chiccozz> ok just on xorg.conf file right?
[14:41] <erUSUL> orange--: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[14:41] <[V]ortex`> is there a shortcut to switch workspaces?
[14:41] <Psinetic> what's the bug reporting site for linux again?
[14:41] <orange--> erUSUL: thanks
[14:41] <theadmin> chiccozz: Yeah, not sudo. use gksu
[14:41] <theadmin> Psinetic: Launchpad.net?
[14:41] <erUSUL> [V]ortex`: crtl + alt + ← →
[14:41] <Psinetic> thanks
[14:41] <chiccozz> ok
[14:41] <scunizi> sekura: well.. unless you have a specefic need for a feature in a later realse of a package then you'll never notice the difference.. True with all of ubuntu's releases and other distros, a certain package set is tweeked to work correctly.. outside of those boundries you're always able to compile the latest and use that.
[14:41] <[V]ortex`> erUSUL: thankew
[14:41] <erUSUL> !bugs | Psinetic only for ubuntu

[14:43] <theadmin> Aha. Outdated package :D
[14:43] <Psinetic> erUSUL, what is the bug site for all of linux hen?
[14:43] <Psinetic> then**
[14:43] <erUSUL> !latest > theadmin
[14:43] <theadmin> thanks, erUSUL.
[14:43] <orange--> after catting /proc/cpuinfo I see I have a duo cpu t5800@2.00GHz with a CPU MHz of 800.000. Shouldn't it be 2000MHz?
[14:43] <erUSUL> Psinetic: for linux the kernel? or for linux the entire operating system?
[14:44] <Psinetic> well i know ubuntu has launchpad, but if i had a bug in fedora, or something else, is there a general site for that?
[14:44] <linxeh> orange--: speedstep I guess ?
[14:44] <erUSUL> orange--: cpu scaling keeps the cpu at low speed when there is no need for full speed
[14:44] <scunizi> Psinetic: there is no single site 'cause linux is made up of lots of little projects.. www.bugs.launchpad.com www.bugzilla.com and many others
[14:44] <Psinetic> ok
[14:44] <Psinetic> thanks guys :)
[14:44] <Psinetic> later
[14:44] <theadmin> Well, Psinetic, you'd need to ask in #fedora for fedora bugs :D
[14:45] <jonathan2> question: when upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10 using update-manager-d, how come they don't install some packages like empathy
[14:45] <linxeh> scunizi: being pedantic linux is only a kernel :p
[14:45] <erUSUL> Psinetic: for the kernel is the mailing list linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org. For the entiore OS there is no such thing as scunizi points out
[14:45] <chiccozz> sorry action but i still not understand im newbie :D..i have to open it with gksu command in terminal ?

[14:45] <theadmin> chiccoz: Yeah. gksu "COMMAND"
[14:45] <[V]ortex`> do i need to install drivers for 9.04 if i'm using integrated intel graphics?
[14:45] <linxeh> Terabyte: cat /proc/cpuinfo will list each core (real, or virtual)
[14:46] <Terabyte> thanks
[14:46] <aaron111> Hello I have Ekiga and wants to try to test call (Echo) but when I try to test call, it just hangs up. Im using ubuntu 9.04 and ekiga 3.00
[14:46] <orange--> erUSUL: Is there a way to overide this so it's always running at full speed?
[14:46] <perlsyntax> Where can i find gtk2-devel and glib2-devel for ubuntu 9.04 do they have it in the apt-get?
[14:46] <scunizi> linxeh: yep
[14:46] <chiccozz> y but nothing seems to happen ..
[14:46] <perlsyntax> is there a differnt name for it?
[14:46] <igama> perlsyntax, they may gave a different name
[14:46] <sekura> scunizi: thanks for sorting that out. i'd like to ask another thing: between 9.04 with the open-sourced radeon driver (2D capabilities only), and 8.10 with the FGLRX ati driver (3D support also), are there major differences, suppose i'm using my pc for programming, heavy surfing, flash pages, movies (and lets not get into video editing)? which is my best option?
[14:46] <perlsyntax> that what i thought
[14:46] <igama> perlsyntax, search for "gtk2 dev"
[14:46] <theadmin> chiccozz: AFAIR you'd need to run this: "gksu gedit"
[14:46] <scunizi> perlsyntax: should be there.. open synaptic pacage manager and search
[14:46] <perlsyntax> what would they be under?
[14:47] <ChogyDan> aaron111: I couldn't get ekiga to work when I tried awhile ago
[14:47] <perlsyntax> i did
[14:47] <erUSUL> Terabyte: grep processor /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l
[14:47] <Terabyte> thanks all
[14:47] <chiccozz> ok well
[14:47] <Terabyte> exit
[14:47] <aaron111> ChogyDan: Ok
[14:47] <perlsyntax> i try looking under glib2-devel and gtk2-devel
[14:47] <erUSUL> orange--: you can but i do not see the point. change the cpu governor from ondemand to performance
[14:48] <chiccozz> now i reboot
[14:48] <igama> perlsyntax, libglib2.0-dev - Development files for the GLib library
[14:48] <scunizi> sekura: that's all normal stuff.. I run 8.10 on my desktop and do all that except programming, and I run 8.04 LTS on my laptop.. no issues here.. you should be fine.
[14:48] <igama> perlsyntax, libgtk2.0-dev - Development files for the GTK+ library
[14:48] <theadmin> ...Now, how to find joins/quits in Pidgin?
[14:48] <orange--> erUSUL: I don't trust the mechanism that determines when to switch to full speed. How would I change the ondemand to performance?
[14:49] <dani> hey
[14:49] <igama> perlsyntax, simple search with synaptic :)
[14:49] <perlsyntax> thanks
[14:49] <theadmin> hide* i mean hide
[14:49] <sekura> scunizi: wow, so there are people that run older versions of ubuntu? :) that's encouraging, thanks!

[14:50] <[V]ortex`> theadmin: ok thanks
[14:51] <theadmin> !XFCE > theadmin
[14:51] <erUSUL> orange--: put it on /etc/rc.local for example
[14:51] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: compiz is not needed for cairo-dock. the dock would still work.
[14:51] <Theextreme> I have a problem with ubuntu usb-creator, it creates all the directories on the root of the flash drive and that's it...
[14:51] <sekura> scunizi: i'll get right on it, thanks. i hope until march, the ATi problems will be fixed
[14:51] <scunizi> sekura: sometimes it's just a pain to upgrade.. now there is an issue with upgrading to 9.10 that I'm preping for.  9.10 uses ext4 natively.. however if you're upgrading and not doing a fresh install.. then you're older files will not get the full benefit of ext4
[14:51] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: ok thanks; do you have a updated link?
[14:52] <Theextreme> and I formatted using fat32 filesystem
[14:52] <aaron111> Hello I have Ekiga and wants to try to test call (Echo) but when I try to test call, it just hangs up. Im using ubuntu 9.04 and ekiga 3.00
[14:52] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: ok thanks found it
[14:52] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: the easiest way would be to use apt-get or synaptic .. since you're not going to be using all the fun eye candy go with the repo version .. sudo apt-get install cairo-dock
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> aaron111: does ekiga have logs?
[14:53] <aaron111> ActionParsnip: What's a log?
[14:53] <soreau> [V]ortex`: Your intel drivers should work OOTB. Look at the output of 'glxinfo|grep renderer' If it says something like OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 845G GEM 20090326 2009Q1 RC2 x86/MMX/SSE2 then that means they're working ok. If it talks about Software Rasterizer, then something is wrong
[14:53] <Theextreme> I also upgraded to the latest usb-creator package
[14:53] <bastid_raZor> [V]ortex`: you're in good hands now.. soreau is on the job :P
[14:53] <soreau> ;)
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> aaron111: little text file somewhere telling a story of what happened and what was tried
[14:54] <aaron111> ActionParsnip: no should I run it in a terminal
[14:54] <[V]ortex`> soreau: output string is similar to yours, but getfences failed whatever that means
[14:54] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: ok thanks
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> aaron111: its not something to run, its something to read
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> aaron111: find the ekiga log and read it
[14:55] <aaron111> Ok
[14:55] <LuciusMare> hello,where can i find jigdo files for ubuntu?
[14:55] <soreau> [V]ortex`: Yea, that's a minor bug. Happens here too
[14:55] <alcor> that is a GUI of ubuntu server?
[14:55] <Theextreme> oh yeah I was doing all this on the ubuntu9.1 rc

[14:55] <Theextreme> so could it possibly  be a bug?
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> alcor: bootlevel 3, erm...busybox
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> alcor: server doesnt come with a GUI. If you need a GUI install desktop
[14:56] <[V]ortex`> soreau: i'm trying to find out why 9.04 for me is slower than winxp; my song playback is jerky at times too
[14:56] <alcor> i need use server, but i like xwindows gui, is seample
[14:57] <Theextreme> so is  this the right place or is there a seperate support for usb-ceator
[14:57] <soreau> [V]ortex`: Sounds like one of the drivers loaded might be causing that. Could be anything from your wifi to sucky audio drivers
[14:57] <Theextreme> creator
[14:57] <Pirate_Hunter> alsaplayer has frozen on my system doing killall or sudo killall aint working, how can I force it to close?
[14:57] <[V]ortex`> soreau: is there any troubleshooting faq that i can follow?
[14:57] <erUSUL> alcor: you can install a gui on the server if you want
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> alcor: there is no point installing server then. The OS is EXACTLY the same so you should install desktop
[14:57] <soreau> Pirate_Hunter: killall -9
[14:57] <orange--> erUSUL: the sudo cpufreq-set -g performance run from the command line only updates the cpu MHz of the first CPU, the 2nd CPU remains at 800MHz. Any ideas how to adjust both?

[14:57] <theadmin> LuciusMare: Type this to a terminal: "sudo apt-get install jigdo"
[14:58] <[V]ortex`> soreau: thanks
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> alcor: the whole point of server is that it doesnt have a gui for security as well as not using resources to run the x server
[14:58] <alcor> it's ok for 100 client?
[14:58] <[V]ortex`> bastid_raZor: how do i change the theme of cairo?

[14:59] <soreau> [V]ortex`: When you right click on cairo-dock, there is an option to change the themes. Click it and the theme selection window will pop up
[14:59] <Pirate_Hunter> soreau: killall -9 is that like force kill
[14:59] <TheTom> Is there an easy way to create a livecd/liveusbstick so i can give it to a friend so that he can install a customized version of ubuntu?

[15:00] <[V]ortex`> soreau: my list of themes in cairo is nil
[15:00] <[V]ortex`> soreau: how do i rectify that?
[15:00] <soreau> [V]ortex`: If you want to mess around with those settings, see if changing it makes any difference. If so, it probably is your audio drivers
[15:01] <The_Lord_Of_The_> !ubuntu
[15:01] <orange--> erUSUL: Hmmm, putting it in /etc/rc.local and rebooting did the trick
[15:01] <soreau> [V]ortex`: No themes, eh? Can you install a package called cario-dock-themes?
[15:01] <airforceguy> scunizi: how do do i just type it there..cuz it aint working
[15:01] <The_Lord_Of_The_> !9.10
[15:01] <scunizi> airforceguy: in where? terminal?
[15:01] <Pirate_Hunter> soreau: yah but htop still shows it and I dont know why it freezes even knowing I was running it with verbose setting right now I to close it without restarting the system
[15:01] <airforceguy> scunizi: i am trying to copy a log in theme to /usr/share/gdm/themes ..but do not know how to do it please advise
[15:01] <Pirate_Hunter> soreau: killall -9 didnt do nothing
[15:01] <orange--> erUSUL: Nope, it did not. I spoke too soon.
[15:02] <mikey> There's something that's been bugging me for ages and I'm surprised no one's done anything about it. When you save something (in Gnome Ubuntu) and the save dialogue opens your home directory you can't save there unless you change to /home  then click to open your home folder again
[15:02] <[V]ortex`> soreau: there is no matching application on the add/remove? or am i doing it wrongly?
[15:02] <soreau> Pirate_Hunter: Do this: ps ax|grep alsaplayer then the number on the left will be the PID or process id. Then do 'sudo kill -9 PID' substituting PID for the real PID number
[15:03] <soreau> [V]ortex`: Hang on, let me check the repos
[15:03] <scunizi> airforceguy: typically the theme is a tar or tar.gz ... open system>Preferences>Appearance and the Theme tab.. drag and drop the theme file to that window
[15:03] <zaoul2> wooT!
[15:03] <soreau> [V]ortex`: Ah, it's called cairo-dock-data on ubuntu
[15:04] <mikey> Do you think I could report a bug for it? If so could someone tell me how to do it with launchpad 'cos when I click on report a bug it just takes me to a page telling me to use ubuntu-bug
[15:04] <[V]ortex`> soreau: there is still no matching application? i'm looking at the add/remove
[15:05] <scunizi> airforceguy: if you really want to do it with termianal then if the theme is on the Desktop you'd.. sudo cp ~/Desktop/<name of file> /usr/share/dgm/themes
[15:05] <Vasya2195> Ðóñêèå åñòü?
[15:05] <newbie> leaving now
[15:05] <soreau> [V]ortex`: Use a terminal and do sudo aptitude install cairo-dock-data then restart cairo-dock
[15:05] <Vasya2195> Êàê ìíå ïîäêëþ÷èòü èíòåðíåò íà óáóíòó 9.10?
[15:05] <soreau> scunizi: s/dgm/gdm? :)
[15:06] <Pirate_Hunter> soreau: weird i tried that telling me no process killed yet I can see it that is the only application that crashes and doesn't like to be killed
[15:06] <airforceguy> scunizi: thanks but for the first option, when i open apperances there is no option for log in themes. only window theme
[15:06] <scunizi> soreau:  :)
[15:06] <scunizi> airforceguy: ah..then use the second command to get it there.
[15:06] <soreau> Pirate_Hunter: I don't know what else to tell you then
[15:07] <[V]ortex`> soreau: the install completed, but there is no difference....
[15:07] <soreau> [V]ortex`: Did you restart cairo-dock?
[15:07] <scunizi> airforceguy: most theme's I've seen change the login as well...
[15:07] <[V]ortex`> soreau: yes i did
[15:07] <soreau> [V]ortex`: Alright, hang on
[15:07] <scunizi> airforceguy: keep in mind that some theme's may make some programs look/act weird
[15:08] <Pirate_Hunter> soreau: no worries afetr next restart im purging going to try exaile and see if it gives me better debug info
[15:08] <cdoublejj> how do i download the braodcom B43 driver and put it on a computer with no internet connection? this of course does have internet
[15:08] <[V]ortex`> soreau: thanks for your help
[15:09] <scunizi> !aptoncd > cdoublejj
[15:09] <cdoublejj> thank you!!!
[15:10] <Psinetic> quick questions. I want my terminal to continually display real time info on my system, such as ram usage, thermal of the cpu's, hard drive space, etc. etc. is there any command for terminal to do that or software command line based software to do that? I'm on ubuntu 9.04
[15:10] <Psinetic> 64bit
[15:10] <soreau> [V]ortex`: Well let me point you to this. There is a much more updated version of cairo-dock than what is in the ubuntu repos currently http://www.cairo-dock.org/ww_page.php?p=From the repository&lang=en
[15:10] <[V]ortex`> soreau: how do i uninstall cairo-dock then?
[15:11] <zaoul2> Psinetic: there would be multiple command line options for that
[15:11] <soreau> [V]ortex`: sudo aptitude remove cairo-dock cairo-dock-data
[15:11] <arielCo> Hello everyone. I want to install a package that requires python2.4-glade2 and python2.4-gtk2 instead of the version-independent packages. How do I force an equivalence or alter the package?
[15:11] <Psinetic> zaoul2, what would those command's be?
[15:11] <soreau> Psinetic: Why not use a program that is designed to do that like conky?
[15:11] <zaoul2> Psinetic: but yes conky would be the best choice
[15:12] <Psinetic> conky does it with a GUI or with commandline?
[15:12] <zaoul2> Psinetic: top would show you system loads and processes... watch sensors, (you might need to run sensors-detect) along with watch df -h
[15:12] <[V]ortex`> soreau: i ran your command, but i forgot to quit cairo first
[15:12] <soreau> arielCo: What package are you trying to install
[15:12] <zaoul2> Psinetic: watch df -h would show drive use
[15:12] <[V]ortex`> soreau: now cairo is still there but the command completed, should i redo anything?
[15:12] <soreau> [V]ortex`: That's fine. After you quit it just wont be able to start again
[15:12] <arielCo> It's called EasyCam, and it's supposed to help me configure my webcam (last resource)
[15:13] <juggle> I use the Network Manager that is found at the topright corner on the top panel in the Ubuntu OS,to access the Internet.However,when i log on to a different User,the Icon for the Manager disappears....how can i correct this?
[15:13] <[V]ortex`> soreau: ok thankew
[15:13] <zaoul2> I like conky but my computer is so old, its depressing watching the stats ;-p LOL
[15:13] <soreau> zaoul2: lol
[15:13] <zaoul2> then I go to work with the quad core and come home and even MORE depressed
[15:13] <soreau> ! who | arielCo
[15:13] <airforceguy> scunizi: thanks
[15:13] <scunizi> zaoul2: on the old one try gnome do
[15:13] <[V]ortex`> question: how do i minimise rhythmbox into a display icon like winamp in windows?
[15:14] <arielCo> soreau: it's called EasyCam, and it's supposed to help me configure my webcam (last resource)
[15:14] <soreau> arielCo: Why not use cheese?
[15:14] <scunizi> airforceguy: sure
[15:14] <soreau> ! webcam | arielCo
[15:14] <zaoul2> scunizi: nah, its just flash is evil
[15:14] <scunizi> zaoul2: :)
[15:14] <zaoul2> I found an excellent way to combat it... greasemonkey!
[15:14] <docmax> how can i send a window to another x window system
[15:15] <zaoul2> so far its just youtube but there are greasemonkey scripts that will play the FLV stream with totem instead
[15:15] <zaoul2> SOOO Much better
[15:15] <zaoul2> liek.... omg
[15:15] <arielCo> soreau, cheese can't use the cam - it freezes for a while at "probing supported video formats" (the camera LED is on), then gives up and shows a test source
[15:16] <juggle> zaoul,I use the Network Manager that is found at the topright corner on the top panel in the Ubuntu OS,to access the Internet.However,when i log on to a different User,the Icon for the Manager disappears....how can i correct this?

[15:16] <ari_stress> hi all, wazzupp
[15:17] <krew> stew
[15:17] <soreau> arielCo: Try those links ubottu gave you. Maybe your cam needs a driver or isn't supported
[15:17] <zaoul2> juggle: right click, add to panel maybe?
[15:17] <soreau> juggle: Try adding nm-applet to your session (sys>prefs>startup apps)
[15:17] <krew> stew
[15:18] <soreau> krew: Did you have a question or problem related to ubuntu?
[15:18] <arielCo> soreau: it's the pwc driver, and depending on who you ask (developer or doc maintainer) it's supported or not
[15:18] <krew> yes
[15:18] <krew> help me stew
[15:19] <krew> I have question for stew
[15:19] <soreau> arielCo: In that case I would attempt to find the latest driver source for your cam and use install that
[15:19] <soreau> krew: You could just ask your question to the channel. Someone else might know the answer too
[15:19] <krew> I have question for stew
[15:20] <scunizi> krew: stop
[15:20] <krew> why
[15:20] <krew> why?
[15:20] <krew> i need help from stew.....
[15:21] <arielCo> krew, if you want to talk specifically to "stew", use "/msg stew this and that....". If you just need help, speak out.
[15:21] <LjL> krew: use private message.
[15:21] <LjL> krew: you're disrupting the channel. stop doing that. last warning.
[15:21] <juggle> soreau:i have tried that several times without success.I guese,what the problem is ,is that the network manager in my OS can only be used for one user.When i try to switch from one 'user', the one i logged on first , to the another,the icon disappears
[15:21] <[V]ortex`> krew: pm him once and then stop. don't flood him please.
[15:22] <krew> ?
[15:22] <soreau> juggle: What happens when you run nm-applet from your terminal? Is there any interesting output?
[15:22] <krew> you flood me
[15:22] <Theextreme> is there a way to create a usb bootable image of the ubuntu live cd? the startup disk maker in the administration menu doesn't work.

[15:22] <LjL> scunizi: try better, he's here. but that's hardly the point.
[15:23] <[V]ortex`> question: how do i minimise rhythmbox into a display icon like winamp in windows?
[15:23] <Theextreme> I hope this is not off topic
[15:24] <bazhang> Theextreme, try unetbootin
[15:24] <scunizi> LjL: ah.. found him.. I only tried with TAB auto completion instead of /whois.. and .. you're right .. it's not the point.
[15:24] <bazhang> Theextreme, if you are in Jaunty its in the repos
[15:24] <Theextreme> I would, however since I am using a screan reading technology it is not accessible with unetbootin
[15:25] <Theextreme> I'd gladdly make it manually but I don't nkow how to do it with grub
[15:25] <mikc>                     unetbootin
[15:25] <soreau> [V]ortex`: I don't know if rhythmbox does that but if it did the setting would be somewhere in it's preferences/settings

[15:41] <Wazzzaaa> cdoublejj: and  cd ~/Desktop?
[15:41] <geirha> Anathema: >& and &> is bash-syntax. cron uses sh, not bash. The equivalent for sh is: >/dev/null 2>&1

[15:42] <Wazzzaaa> ^^ ;)
[15:42] <Suikoden> what other applications that are part of ubuntu?
[15:42] <Anathema> geirha: oh thanks, I didn't know the difference, I'll try that :)
[15:43] <cdoublejj> ok that works now
[15:43] <Wazzzaaa> Suikoden: some standard app for common users like: openoffice, music/m,ovie player, buring, IM client..
[15:43] <thermoman> tried ubuntu (netbook edition) the 1st time and it's a show stopper right from the start ...
[15:43] <igama> Suikoden, check ubuntu.com, i believe there is a list there. But all major apps for a default desktop are included. OpenOffice, Gimp, Fspot, Brasero, Totem, etc
[15:44] <cdoublejj> dang that last command won't work
[15:44] <Suikoden> what link?

[15:58]  * jrib sighs
[15:58] <airforceguy> jrib: lets just say i want to open /usr/share/gdm/themes for fun not for changing how would i do that
[15:58] <ruebe123>  i have a problem with my onboard grafikchip from radeon
[15:58] <airforceguy> jrib: starting to wonder if it's a secret
[15:58] <ruebe123>  in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf  there is only 	Identifier	"Configured Video Device"
[15:58] <novakane818_> Hi everyone
[15:59] <jrib> airforceguy: I've already told you where to go for help.  It's not a secret, but you should install things properly
[15:59] <airforceguy> maco: just want to open /usr/share/gdm/themes any idea...how do u get there that's all i m asking
[15:59] <zaoul2> ruebe123: seems ubuntu handles xorg through hal... but if you add extra options there, they will work
[15:59] <maco> airforceguy: you would type "cd /usr/share/gdm/themes" in a terminal
[15:59] <ruebe123> zaoul2: i tried
[15:59] <maco> airforceguy: but 9.10s themes dont work like the ones your getting off gnome-look
[15:59] <ruebe123> but it doesen't work
[16:00] <maco> airforceguy: so no point
[16:00] <ruebe123> tried radeonhd too
[16:00] <nwillems> airforceguy: Have you tried with a console with cd? or what is your method of choice?
[16:01] <zaoul2> ruebe123: for someone to accurately help you with your problem you will need to, describe what you are trying to do, describe what is happening, describe what you did, and collect any relavent configurations and error logs (usually post them to a paste bin) .. the log in question would be /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[16:14] <arielCo> Hello again. I'm trying to install mplayer, but I get " Depends: libdirectfb-1.0-0 which is a virtual package" for both mplayer and mplayer-nogui.
[16:14] <mazda01> arielCo, and?
[16:15] <mazda01> arielCo, install it if it asks for it.
[16:15] <DuckGod> erUSUL: it says run command not found
[16:15] <arielCo> mazda01: so I cannot install it - mplayer[-nogui] are shown as broken, and the "solution"  is to leave them uninstalled
[16:15] <erUSUL> DuckGod: is this kubuntu ?
[16:15] <DuckGod> ubuntu
[16:16] <maco> DuckGod: dont type the wrod run
[16:16] <maco> DuckGod: just "nm-applet"
[16:16] <DuckGod> an my alt f2 shortcut to terminal dont work for some reason also
[16:16] <mazda01> arielCo, you're installing a dependency for mplayer not mplayer[-nogui] right? you'll be fine
[16:16] <maco> DuckGod: should open a run dialog
[16:17] <DuckGod> ** (nm-applet:4008): WARNING **: <WARN>  applet_dbus_manager_start_service(): Could not acquire the NetworkManagerUserSettings service as it is already taken.  Return: 3
[16:17] <novakane818_> I have having permission issues
[16:17] <isola73dsh33p> isn't alt F2 is assigned to run application?
[16:17] <novakane818_> can anyone help
[16:17] <DuckGod> thats what it told me.....
[16:17] <arielCo> mazda01: both - I typed "sudo aptitude install mplayer", and it complains about both packages depending on the virtual pkg
[16:18] <maco> novakane818_: use sudo
[16:18] <VXxed> Should I have files in /proc/acpi/fan and /proc/acpi/thermal_zone ?
[16:18] <novakane818_> I do use sudo
[16:18] <maco> DuckGod: did only the nm applet go away or other sutff to? like the whole notification area?
[16:18] <arielCo> mazda01: the proposed solution is "doing nothing" >_>
[16:18] <mazda01> arielCo, so you can't install mplayer and libdirectfb?
[16:19] <DuckGod> my internet connection an my shutdown option
[16:19] <novakane818_> I think I need to change /amend the file permissions of the file itself using the Chmod command
[16:19] <arielCo> mazda01: I didn't try libdirectfb alone - shouldn't aptitude do it automatically as it is a dependency?
[16:19] <novakane818_> not sure which values to use though
[16:20] <mazda01> arielCo, yes. just because that's the proposed solution doesn't mean that's what you have to do.
[16:20] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | novakane818_
[16:20] <drew> may i ask a question

[16:52] <cyber_666_uk> great thx guys
[16:53] <alabd> Good day everyone , what is kernel ? just tell yourself in 1/2 line or more..
[16:53] <dracnoc> zaoul2, yeah, we have, but we don't work with amateurs.
[16:53] <jollyroger> shouldn't it be the EXACT same result?
[16:53] <dracnoc> :p
[16:53] <maco> jollyroger: probably due to root's environment being different?
[16:53] <divo> hi
[16:53] <roger2> zaoul2: i do this from terminal? just type all that? I am a noob
[16:53] <ubuntuLover_> nwillems: I tried several suggestions on Ubuntu forums to fix teh MBR and re-install GRUB2 without any luck, the cmputer refuses to boot.
[16:53] <tsimpson> jollyroger: depends on the command
[16:53] <cyber_666_uk> Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[16:53] <divo> i want program in linux
[16:53] <maco> cyber_666_uk: that means you already ahve an apt running
[16:53] <divo> please
[16:53] <maco> cyber_666_uk: are you installing updates right now?
[16:54] <maco> cyber_666_uk:  if so, wait til thats done
[16:54] <cyber_666_uk> no synaptic's open tho
[16:54] <damnedyankee> Hello.  I'm running the beta and Ubuntu is having a hard time finding my internet connection upon startup.  It takes a couple of restarts for it to get it.  Any suggestions, or should I just ride it out until Karmic gets out of beta?
[16:54] <zaoul2> roger2: yes
[16:54] <rockstarrem> close that cyber
[16:54] <maco> cyber_666_uk: thatd do it
[16:54] <zaoul2> roger2: as root, sudo su
[16:54] <maco> cyber_666_uk: close synaptic

[16:55] <montana16> newbie:install hangs at splash screen after menu.Any ideas?
[16:55] <shadowjack> my home directory got full and things weren't work properly so i deleted several gigs of stuff and rebooted. thats when things got really bad. gdm keeps bring up "there already appears to be a x server running..." error. this is endless loop. so i switched to a virtual terminal but when i put in my login info, nothing happens. no error. i just returns me to the login prompt over and over
[16:55] <isola73dsh33p> hello guys, i tried to assign sound to my x-chat, but i got this awful sound instead of the original sound. What's probably the cause?

[16:55] <nwillems> ubuntulover_: As far as i know, that is a question for the channel #ubuntu+1 please post it in there
[16:55] <cyber_666_uk> what is gspca?
[16:55] <nwillems> ubuntulover_: Your question is related to the new release of ubuntu, this channel is for 9.04, so you just have to change the channel by using /j <channel_name> in this IRC client. The correct channel for your question is in the channel #ubuntu+1
[16:56] <nwillems> IdleOne: Have you tried VLC?
[16:56] <guntbert> !md5sum | montana16
[16:56] <isola73dsh33p> hello guys, i tried to assign sound to my x-chat, but i got this awful sound instead of the original sound. What's probably the cause?
[16:56] <dracnoc> IdleOne, VLC.... gah, someone beat me to it
[16:56] <IdleOne> nwillems: vlc does not support xvid
[16:56] <Sirisian> would: find . | xargs grep sys_getpid '*.c'    be used to recursively search directories and look in files *.c for an instance of sys_getpid ?
[16:56] <montana16> thank you
[16:56] <guntbert> montana16: make certain that the image is ok before burning
[16:56] <ubuntuLover_> nwillems: great thanks! :D

[16:56] <shadowjack> nwillems, you need medibuntu repositories
[16:57] <oorah> in Xubuntu i wanna put up the gyachi icon on the taskber but i can't find it in the icons list. can anyone help?
[16:57] <cyber_666_uk> oh its the webcam driver - cool
[16:57] <jollyroger> maco, you're prolly right - but how do i specify to switch the environment -> i checked out the manpage and couldn't find anything
[16:57] <roger2> guntbert:zaoul2: I dont understand where this "sudo -s" comes in.what do I exactly type at the terminal to undo ENVY changes..
[16:57] <oorah> but i do see it in the network list in the menu
[16:57] <maco> jollyroger: dunno
[16:58] <p1und3r> anyone know how to write a script to open a new terminal and have that terminal stay open after the process finishes?
[16:58] <nwillems> IdleOne: I guess thats is a matter of plugin, I think VLC would ask you to download or ask to permission to DL. Else the standard Movie player is nice to ask to DL plugins
[16:58] <shadowjack> IdleOne, you need medibuntu repositories
[16:58] <paulina> elo ziomy?
[16:58] <paulina> from poland?
[16:58] <guntbert> roger2: I didn't follow your conversation - what are you trying to do?
[16:58] <guntbert> !pl | paulina
[16:58] <IdleOne> shadowjack: I got them, what package do I need to install?
[16:58] <nwillems> shadowjack: That seems to work it out too, I just thought that the player would take care of that
[16:59] <IdleOne> nwillems: VLC popups a windows explaining that it does not support it and nothing to do about it
[16:59] <maco> p1und3r: use nohup
[16:59] <shadowjack> IdleOne, not sure but im sure 2 seconds with google could tell you
[16:59] <rkvirani> Anyone know if any good guides on getting the most battery out of ones laptop when running ubuntu?
[16:59] <p1und3r> maco: whats nohup?
[16:59] <roger2> guntbert: i installed ENVY and messed everything up..video is scrambled..wont even get to the desktop..i want to do UNDO everything ENVY messed up..i tried safe mode graphics fix..did not help
[17:00] <maco> p1und3r: tells it not to hang up onthe process youre launching
[17:00] <maco> p1und3r: so you an close the shell from which you launch something and have the something keep runnig
[17:00] <roger2> guntbert: I just want to know what exactly to type at the safe mode terminal to UNDO
[17:00] <rkvirani> I want to get as much power out of my battery as windows does.
[17:00] <guntbert> roger2: sorry - I never used it
[17:01] <p1und3r> maco: ahh my needs are simpler, i know its some argument that i forget, the second terminal that runs is the one i want to stay open after the process
[17:01] <Deihmos> how to change the the color depth ?
[17:01] <maco> p1und3r: no thats it
[17:01] <shadowjack> roger2, envy isn't really necessary these days
[17:01] <maco> p1und3r: your script should say "nohup terminal" or whatever your terminal executable is
[17:01] <roger2> zaoul2:guntbert: said type " dpkg -reconfigure xserver -zorg from cli"
[17:01] <gosia> hej
[17:01] <p1und3r> maco: ok ill read on that, thanks maco, nohup gnome-terminal -e "bla bla" i guess?
[17:01] <maco> p1und3r: so when the shell script exits, it keeps going
[17:01] <maco> p1und3r: yeah
[17:02] <gosia> hello :)
[17:02] <p1und3r> maco: thanks :D
[17:02] <shadowjack> im guessing no one can help me with my particular problem as it's not exactly a new user question
[17:02] <jrib> !helpme | shadowjack
[17:02] <gosia> co tam ???
[17:02] <maco> shadowjack: what was your question?
[17:02] <roger2> shadowjack: i actually found the fix for my particular video card on the forum...but i messed up and installed ENVY first
[17:02] <vigo> Deimos: Monitor or general settings?
[17:02] <shadowjack> maco, my home directory got full and things weren't work properly so i deleted several gigs of stuff and rebooted. thats when things got really bad. gdm keeps bring up "there already appears to be a x server running..." error. this is endless loop. so i switched to a virtual terminal but when i put in my login info, nothing happens. no error. i just returns me to the login prompt over and over
[17:02] <roger2> now i want to do undo ENVY install
[17:02] <guntbert> roger2: ah..., just type sudo in front (like sudo dpkg -rec...), then you are prompted for *your* password
[17:03] <maco> shadowjack: yikes!
[17:03] <guntbert> !sudo | roger2
[17:03] <phaidros> hi, karmic beta doesnt have a hal backend for cups anymore. how do I get my printer running then?
[17:03] <Slart> p1und3r: seems others have tried without suggess.. unless you count the script version as success http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=509463
[17:03] <Slart> !karmic | phaidros
[17:03] <vikb> What is the default installation size of jaunty jackalope?
[17:04] <nwillems> phaidros: You should ask Karmic questions in #ubuntu+1
[17:04] <phaidros> Slart, nwillems thanx for pointing :)
[17:04] <chomwitt> shouldnt sharing a folder let me choose between nfs or samba? my jauntu install only samba..
[17:04] <shadowjack> maco, my response exactly followed be several hours of googling and head bouncing off keyboard action
[17:04] <cyber_666_uk> maco would you expect this to take this long?
[17:04] <vikb> My Linux distro installation size seems to be increasing in size with every update added making the boot a lot slower and the os bulkier
[17:04] <Slart> vikb: I guess that might be different from install to install depending on hardware, fs and so on.. under 1 GB is my guess
[17:05] <maco> shadowjack: was .gconf one of the things you deleted?
[17:05] <Lotto> http://action.metaffiliation.com/suivi.php?mclic=S42350516A5D1117
[17:05] <vigo> vikb: between 6-8g, but there are a lot of variables there.
[17:05] <IdleOne> shadowjack: Mplayer supports xvid. thought I would let you know
[17:05] <maco> cyber_666_uk: yeah its compiling a new module
[17:05] <p1und3r> Slart: i cuda sworn i accomplished this goal easier like months ago i cant remember what i did :p
[17:05] <Acnaven1> hi
[17:05] <maco> shadowjack: can you make a new user and see if that user is able to login? you can do that useing the "adduser" command from recovery mode
[17:06] <shadowjack> maco: no. i only deleted picture file, themes i downloaded, video. things like that. i didnt touch any config files
[17:06] <nwillems> IdleOne: Thank you, for informing us. Is your problem solved by now?
[17:06] <shadowjack> maco, already tried the adduser thing. same thing with the new account
[17:06] <Loonix> 60055
[17:06] <IdleOne> nwillems: yes thanks for your help
[17:06] <vikb> vigo: using an application like discus is revealing 7.79G of used space is that pretty normal?
[17:07] <nwillems> IdleOne: np, pleasure is on my side
[17:07] <vikb> anyways I am looking forward for Karmic Koala
[17:07] <Acnaven1> Hello, someone has a shutdown problem in Ubuntu 9.10 RC?
[17:07] <maco> shadowjack: can you read logs from recovery mode?
[17:07] <Slart> vikb: I have jaunty 32bit desktop running in virtualbox.. it's using.. 2.9 GB .. not sure if I've installed anything extra on that though
[17:07] <maco> !karmic | Acnaven1
[17:07] <Acnaven1> O.O
[17:07] <vigo> vikb: I am not familiar with discus, but yes, that sounds like a generic/typical install.
[17:08] <montana16> hashes are the same
[17:08] <shadowjack> maco, im not sure what logs im supposed to look at or where they would be
[17:08] <g_> hi, how can i apt-get install a package without internet connection on the particular computer?
[17:08] <vikb> vigo: perfecto I was afraid if I have bloated the system thanks
[17:08] <maco> shadowjack: /var/log/Xorg.0.log /var/log/auth.log /var/log/messages or syslog
[17:08] <Acnaven1> someone read my post?
[17:08] <maco> Acnaven1: youre in the wrong channel
[17:08] <vikb> Slart: thanks for the info :)
[17:08] <BlouBlou> Acnaven1: for karmic support go to #ubuntu+1
[17:09] <montana16> I will reburn
[17:09] <vigo> vikb: My pleasure.
[17:09] <shadowjack> maco,  anything in particular i should be looking for in those logs?
[17:09] <roger2> guntbert:is this correct"sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg from cli" will this undo ENVY problems?

[17:10] <athlan> is anyone of you registered at www.ubuntuforums.org? I am unable to log in, because i never got any activation Email. What can I do?
[17:10] <Slart> athlan: wait a while.. try registering again.. make sure you check the spam folder if you have one
[17:11] <vigo> Slart: Doesn't that data space kinda depend on Swap tables and other stuff?
[17:11] <Novatillo> anybody can help me?
[17:11] <athlan> Slart it was months ago. i never got one.
[17:11] <vigo> !ask
[17:11] <Slart> vigo: I don't think I use any swap on this install.. but there are lots of things that can affect the size of your installation..
[17:12] <Lotto> http://bio.pdg.pl/
[17:12] <vigo> Slart: Thank you.
[17:12] <milosz> elo
[17:12] <Slart> athlan: then try again... there might be a channel for the forums too..tried #ubuntuforums ?
[17:12] <shadowjack> maco, thanks, ill take a look at those logs
[17:12] <athlan> Slart besides, my username is no longer available when registering again
[17:13] <obadeh> where is wpasupplicant launched from on jaunty? I'm trying to add a debug flag to it
[17:15] <Novatillo> I have Ubuntu 9.04 for a 32 bits pc. What is better from me download deb or rpm to install any program?
[17:15] <gary123> Where do I change the default from PS to PDF for the Print dialog's Print to File choice?
[17:15] <tyler_d1> I cannot get my multimedia keys on my Satellite A20 laptop to work... and the walkthrough on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaKeys is not very clear... can anyone help me to get the key output?
[17:15] <Slart> Novatillo: debs.. definately
[17:15] <Slart> !rpm | Novatillo
[17:15] <Strking7> Novatillo: in almost all situations, get the deb
[17:15] <Slart> !dev | Novatillo
[17:15] <Slart> !deb | Novatillo
[17:16] <Strking7> Novatillo: only use the RPM if it was, for some reason, far more up to date
[17:16] <Slart> Strking7, Novatillo: use regular source before you even think of using an rpm.. we've had many users in here with broken systems after installing rpms
[17:17] <Strking7> Slart: Alien can only do so much, understood.
[17:17] <Strking7> Hey all, I have a Macbook Pro (Santa Rosa family) that I can't get the sound working on
[17:17] <Strking7> I've done plenty of fishing around the fora and wikis
[17:18] <Strking7> I've tried Jaunty and am kurrently trying Karmic, still no dice.  It's recognized by the system, just no sound
[17:18] <vigo> Striking7: Look at the Documentation?
[17:18] <Slart> Strking7: I guess some stuff might work better than others.. wine for example is pretty self contained and might perhaps work better than something that does more stuff to the system..
[17:18] <Evito> where can i find the button to allow program to keep mouse within its window
[17:18] <Strking7> many wikis and forum posts recommended compiling the latest alsa from source, but all of them have you rsync it from a location that appears to be offline
[17:18] <Slart> Strking7: what kind of sound hardware? try lspci
[17:19] <Strking7> Anyone have the same model machine and have their sound fixed?
[17:20] <theadmin> Hmnh. Is Virtualbox-ose the official Sun VirtualBox or is it some third-party thing?
[17:20] <Strking7> Slart: lspci says it's an Intel 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller, Rev 03
[17:21] <Slart> theadmin: it's an open source edition.. it lacks usb support and possibly other features
[17:21] <theadmin> Slart: Oh.
[17:21] <phasegen> how do you mount a new hard drive via usb to partition and format?
[17:21] <vigo> Striking7: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro That looks like a good resource.
[17:21] <agent42> theadmin:http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Editions
[17:22] <Slart> Strking7: hmm.. it's a pretty common sound chip.. there are lots of settings for it you can try fiddling with.. check in the /etc/udev/rules.d   I think there is an alsa rules file there
[17:22] <Strking7> Slart: Oooh, shiny. I love settings files to fiddle with :-)
[17:23] <Slart> theadmin: not really sure what is so special about USB that you can't make it open source.. or it might just be a way to get more people to use the regular version..
[17:23] <theadmin> Slart: I don't need USB there, i mainly use VirtualBox to test new linux distros and see that they are worse then Ubuntu
[17:23] <Strking7> vigo: thanks for the link, but I have looked there, yes
[17:23] <Slart> Strking7: there are a gazillion different variants of that chip.. some want special settings.. I think they add known working configurations as they find out about them.. but it might still be worth trying a few of the more common ones
[17:24] <Slart> theadmin: I haven't noticed any other differences between the two version.. admittedly I haven't looked that hard either
[17:24] <maco> hahah by "pretty common" y'all mean like 2/3 of sound chips are called that, right?
[17:25] <Slart> maco: mm.. or 19/20 of the onboard sound chips =)
[17:25] <maco> Slart: heh yeah or that. ac97 not so common nowadays...
[17:26] <maco> Slart: but yes youre right about "add known working configs as found"
[17:26] <q8smitty> how can i move the maximize, minimize and close buttons to the right side?
[17:26] <maco> Slart: there are a large number of quirks already in existence and a ton of 'em share quirks, but evey now and then you find a chip that works in some way that none of the quirks so far can handle
[17:27] <chomwitt> is there a gui way (from within a file system browser) to share a folder in a lan with NFS?
[17:27] <Slart> maco: yup.. I'm just happy my on board sound works.. I try not to figure out why or I'm afraid it will break =)
[17:27] <agent42> bugorfeature? when I click the firefox launcher to start a second firefox window, it opens UNDER the active window!
[17:27] <theadmin> GRAH! Can i stop update manager from popping up every now and then? Without upgrading?
[17:28] <StrangeCharm> is there a known reason why the installer partitioner would be unable to see sata disks?
[17:28] <Slart> chomwitt: isn't there some kind of "share folder" wizard in gnome? or it only works with samba ?
[17:28] <n8tuser> agent42-> what were you expecting?
[17:28] <Slart> StrangeCharm: hmm.. I've installed several times on sata disks.. some kind of special motherboard/sata io card?
[17:29] <agent42> over
[17:29] <chomwitt> Slart: in my jaunty in nautilus only do samba..
[17:29] <evilaim> Ya, this is weird... my Visual Effects won't stay on.  They're on and compiz is setup, then I reboot and visual effects are off, and compiz has default settings...
[17:29] <n8tuser> !who | agent42
[17:29] <joakimk> I can't get codecs installed for Moonlight, in Firefox. A popup asks me, do I want to install Microsoft Media Pack; I click "Install Codecs"; agree on the Licence thingie, and then get "Permission denied"
[17:29] <agent42> n8user: over
[17:29] <n8tuser> agent42-> over which? can you clarify?
[17:30] <Slart> chomwitt: hmm.. true.. not sure what to try then
[17:30] <Novatillo> I need to install openoffice.org database (because ubuntu didn't install by default) to a computer with linux ubuntu without internet conection, I have another computer with Windows operative system with internet conection. Anybody can help me?
[17:30] <joakimk> If I go to http://www.go-mono.com/moonlight/, I get "Congratulations, you're running the current release of moonlight!"
[17:30] <chomwitt> Slart: ok thanks
[17:30] <shadowjack> maco, i looked in those log files but i have not clue what im supposed to be looking for
[17:30] <n8tuser> joakim--> sometimes the plugins require root priviledge to install, an example of that is acrobat air
[17:30] <Strking7> agent42: Sounds like a bug to me.
[17:31] <StrangeCharm> Slart, somewhat. there are two sata controllers on the mobo. the detector indicates that it's noted some sata raid devices, and asks me if i want to activate them. whether i say yes or no, i only see disks attached to one contrroler
[17:31] <joakimk> n8tuser: How do I do that, then? Install as root?
[17:31] <Slart> Novatillo: open synaptic on the linux computer.. then mark the packages you want to install.. then search the menus.. there is a export download script somewhere.. save that script on a usb stick and run it from the windows computer..
[17:31] <Slart> Novatillo: you need to download a copy of wget and put it on the flash drive too..
[17:31] <agent42> n8user: i have already started firefox, pidgin is now the active window, i click the firefox launcher, the new firefox window is under the pidgin window
[17:31] <n8tuser> joakim--> sometimes you have to.. not an ideal situations but.. you must do what it takes if its essential to your using the system
[17:32] <joakimk> n8tuser: But, how? :)
[17:32] <Slart> StrangeCharm: hmm.. not really sure what to try.. there might be some tweaking you can do to the installer that makes it see the sata drives but usually it works "out of the box"
[17:32] <n8tuser> agent42-> is that not acceptable? im really still not understanding what you want to happen for a 2nd launch of firefox
[17:33] <n8tuser> joakim--> use gksudo
[17:33] <joakimk> n8tuser: but, I can't download the media pack, as is.
[17:33] <p1und3r> ok anyone shell script gurus
[17:33] <p1und3r> :D
[17:33] <joakimk> n8tuser: do you mean I should run firefox as root?
[17:34] <agent42> n8tuser: now what I expected, I would want it to start as a new active window
[17:34] <StrangeCharm> Slart, things only seem to work 'out of the box' for me when i'm doing what the designer envisioned. nobody ever planned this complex a partition-scheme
[17:34] <n8tuser> joakim--> the launcher perhaps, not the firefox..
[17:34] <joakimk> n8tuser: the install media pack is something handled inside firefox -- not a terminal action
[17:34] <babbio> guys i have a problem.....when i start the installation of kubuntu ( or ubuntu ) after the kubuntu loading screenshot...my monitor led blink like when (from windows) i set up a non supported resolution.....how can i do???
[17:34] <Slart> StrangeCharm: have you tried using the alternate install cd? it seems to support a bit more exotic hardware.. ie raid things and such
[17:34] <Slart> !alternate | StrangeCharm
[17:35] <joakimk> n8tuser: I tried chowning .mozilla/plugins, such that it now is: drwxr-xr-x 3 joakimk root    4096 2009-10-25 18:18 plugins
[17:35] <Novatillo> I don't know what's synaptic and how to open it, i'm a beginner in linux ubuntu.
[17:35] <joakimk> n8tuser: used to be drwxr-xr-x 3 root    root    4096 2009-10-25 18:18 plugins
[17:35] <n8tuser> agent42-> if you meant, it complains because of an existing firefox running, you can run another instance like firefox  --no-xshm
[17:35] <shadowjack> Novatillo, synaptic is in your system administration menu
[17:35] <shadowjack> Novatillo, you install software with it
[17:36] <StrangeCharm> Slart, i'm actually using the server install disk, which seems to have the same partitioner as the alt disk
[17:36] <joakimk> n8tuser: Is it a permissions problem with the plugins dir (as suggested by http://syntacticsugar.nl/2009/06/19/ubuntu-firefox-moonlight-and-microsoft-codecs-pack/), or should I (somehow) download the codec install file and run it as root?
[17:36] <Novatillo> ok thank you for your support.
[17:36] <athlan_> hi
[17:37] <Nexinity> Hey leute
[17:37] <n8tuser> joakim--> thats about right, it does not allow your regular user to write in a dir that it has no permission to, where is trying to write to?
[17:37] <agent42> :)no it does not complain. it just starts under the active window, so i have to mouse to the window list to show it over my pidgin window
[17:37] <joakimk> n8tuser: I don't know where...
[17:37] <shadowjack> Novatillo, http://linuxowns.wordpress.com/2008/11/11/ubuntu-the-absolute-beginners-guide/
[17:38] <shadowjack> Novatillo, google "ubuntu beginners guide" for more links
[17:38] <elvirolo> has anyone had any luck using xnee under ubuntu ?
[17:38] <n8tuser> joakim--> which dir is that plugins from you pasted?
[17:38] <Nexinity> hey guys
[17:38] <Nexinity> i have a little problem
[17:38] <andril> hello allo
[17:38] <joakimk> n8tuser: /home/joakimk/.mozilla contains the plugins dir.
[17:39] <joakimk> n8tuser: drwxr-xr-x 3 joakimk root    4096 2009-10-25 18:18 plugin
[17:39] <joakimk> drwxr-xr-x 3 joakimk root    4096 2009-10-25 18:18 plugins
[17:39] <joakimk> sorry
[17:39] <agent42> n8tuser:no it does not complain. it just starts under the active window, so i have to mouse to the window list to show it over my pidgin window:)
[17:39] <andril> is there a way to upgrade the distro from a cd/dvd?
[17:39] <Nexinity> i have a jailbroken ipod and i have to boot it with the redsn0w booter does any1 know how to do it with linux?
[17:39] <erUSUL> andril: you can use the alternate cd
[17:39] <aliendude5300> Hey can you guys help me with a technical problem? I'm trying to get valgrind logs for the process gvfsd-metadata to trace a memory leak, but there is no command named that, what command creates that process?
[17:40] <erUSUL> andril: it will cut most of the download fase (depending on the software you have installed of course)
[17:40] <n8tuser> joakim--> but thats just a dir, and on mine, the content has a link to the jdk's libjavaplugin_oji.so
[17:40] <speaker> hi

[17:41] <andril> any special commands needed?
[17:41] <speaker> soud problem in ubuntu 904
[17:41] <n8tuser> agent42-> would that be overly difficult to click?  or once you click you wanted it on top right away? perhaps look at what options firefox have when launching?
[17:41] <timber> can someone tell me the location of the icon folder?

[17:41] <athlan_> where the problem might be?

[17:42] <dpac> help me guys, Having some problem here. I used to connect to my dsl using the panel icon. But later I wanted it to connect automatically, so I created a connection using pppoeconf, and now I can't manage the connection using the icon on panel and nor can I see the connection status anywhere. I can't even use ddclient, because it asks which interface to choose and choosing any of them doesn't works. Help me guys
[17:42] <n8tuser> joakim--> lets step back.. which plugin do you want firefox to use?
[17:42] <andril> erUSUL: many thanks

[17:42] <joakimk> n8tuser: um, Moonlight, with Microsoft Media Pack
[17:42] <agent42> n8tuser: but that is not the expected behaviour. OK let's leave it here
[17:43] <joakimk> n8tuser: it seems Moonlight is installed OK; but some MS codecs are missing.
[17:43] <athlan_> for some reason, i am not able to browse my samba network with nautilus. I can browse the machines through their IP however. The hosts are all listed in my etc/hosts.

"unable to mount location: Failed to retrieve share list from server. Please select another viewer." Does anyone know,
[17:43] <athlan_> where the problem might be?
[17:44] <joakimk> n8tuser: http://www.go-mono.com/moonlight/ has an "object" I can right click (a bar saying congratulations... etc), which produces a popup menu with a "Install Microsoft Media Pack" otion
[17:44] <joakimk> n8tuser: But this, from inside Firefox, gives me "Permission Denied"
[17:44] <spydon> I just installed proftpd but when I login with a ftp user it doesn't see /media/disk or any removable media, does anyone know how to fix it?
[17:44] <n8tuser> joakim--> once you downloaded the library, its a module, a file that ends in .so ,  you can create a symlink from the plugin directory to that .so
[17:45] <joakimk> n8tuser: but that's just it; I have no idea where the .so file is downloaded

[17:47] <n8tuser> kandjar-> i would google for it, honestly i dont think anyone can remember all that options
[17:47] <KB1JWQ> pratik_narain: What's to explain?  I usually use GCC to compile my C++ code.

[17:47] <mannnnnnb> is there anyway i can install gwibber in hardy heron?

[17:49] <azlon> how can i change the background image/color of the menus on the menu at the top of the screen (applications, places, system)? i can change the space on either side of those menus but i cant apply the same image to the menus as i did to the bar
[17:49] <joakimk> n8tuser: no, I did read that. Still need some help... Can't I just move the .so file to the desired location?
[17:50] <joakimk> n8tuser: not familiar with symlinks...
[17:50] <zash> azlon: afaik you can only change that through a theme
[17:50] <azlon> zash: hrmm... have you ever used the mac4lin theme?
[17:51] <zash> azlon: no
[17:51] <KB1JWQ> pratik_narain: Not necessarily.
[17:51] <KB1JWQ> Read the man page.
[17:51] <kandjar> is there a webpage which describe the different package option you have when you reach the "software selection" page during the installation process????
[17:51] <nickapalooza> why don't you all just use windows 7 :P

[18:17] <maestrojed> I am just leaning linux. I am trying to write my first little script. Do I use /bin/bash or /bin/sh (Ubuntu 9)? I don't know the difference between the two. Does this mean I don't know enough to be writing a script? :)
[18:17] <cowgarden> erUSUL, I might have modified it, yes... but i guess I'll figure out where windows was when it fucks up now :)
[18:17] <sblunix> hey
[18:17] <hedkandi> ok
[18:18] <mrwes> nice
[18:18] <rasstar> why does ubuntu look so bland? the colors, fonts and everything looks really old when i compare to windows. can that be changed ?
[18:18] <erUSUL> maestrojed: bash is more featurefull has some extensions (language) plain sh does not have.
[18:18] <Novatillo> hi again! I have opened Synaptic and I have not found Openoffice.org database to get its script to can download it with my other computer with internet conection.
[18:18] <erUSUL> !themes | rasstar
[18:19] <maestrojed> erUSUL: cool, thanks
[18:19] <erUSUL> maestrojed: you can ask in #bash
[18:19] <Lint01> maestrojed, unless you have to use specific bash extensions, use /bin/sh
[18:19] <rasstar> i looked at those themes but it seems as if everything requires multiple steps to install
[18:19] <clusty> hey
[18:19] <clusty> i am having some issues with french accents on an ntfs mounted partitin
[18:19] <maestrojed> Thanks Lint01 and erUSUL
[18:20] <clusty> partition*
[18:20] <clusty> how can I fiux it?
[18:20] <bullhornx> ill try to reboot...
[18:20] <clusty> files have flattened to english and "(invalid encoding)" at the end
[18:21] <Lint01> clusty, try utf8 option in mount parameters. Do you use ntfs-3g?
[18:21] <clusty> Lint01, yes ntfs-3g
[18:21] <clusty> thanks
[18:21] <clusty> will try
[18:22] <Novatillo> How i can to install openoffice.org database in a computer without internet conection? (I have another computer with Windows operative and an internet conection)
[18:22] <erUSUL> !apt-zip
[18:22] <erUSUL> !aptzip
[18:22] <clusty> Lint01, i have already: defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46
[18:22] <erUSUL> !info apt-zip
[18:22] <foundry871> How can I set it so the sound from my computer is seen as the input sound along with my mic
[18:22] <ra21vi> i am trying to install xapian on my ubuntu, but dont want to install it systemwide. I want to install it in a ~/bin directory and have taht statically linked.. what should I pass to ./configure ?
[18:23] <clusty> Novatillo, got usb sticks?
[18:23] <erUSUL> ra21vi: ./configure --help (each app has its own configure options)
[18:23] <ra21vi> erUSUL: ok :)
[18:23] <Lint01> clusty, not nls=utf8, but utf8
[18:23] <clusty> ohh ok
[18:23] <clusty> i just changed the driver from ntfs to ntfs-3g
[18:24] <mikejet> how do I set up a dictionary?
[18:24] <Novatillo> clusty I have usb sticks
[18:24] <mikejet> Applications->Office->Dictionary is not set up right on my default ubuntu installation.
[18:24] <clusty> Novatillo, download all .deb files on windows (including deps) and copy them to the ubuntu machine
[18:25] <susbwoy> Hi, since updating my kernel to 2.6.18-16; I've noticed significant rendering speed loss on things like window maximising. It's weird.. I don't think the video card drivers got touched with the upgrade? Someone point me in right direction? thanks
[18:25] <clusty> than you can do dpkg -i <deb file> to install them
[18:25] <clusty> Novatillo, this assumes however you are somewhat familiar with the command line
[18:25] <ra21vi> erUSUL: uh, the help thing didnt really helped much..
[18:26] <Novatillo> clusty I'm a beginner, I don't know the command line
[18:26] <ssmy> my mom has a printer that is incompatible with linux. is there any way to send print jobs to a windows machine hooked to the printer over the network?
[18:26] <clusty> Novatillo, ubuntu machine has no net card?
[18:26] <clusty> ssmy, yes. samba printing
[18:26] <erUSUL> ra21vi: can not add much sorry. there is no generic way of specifying static compilation in configure that i know of
[18:27] <clusty> ssmy, share windoze printer over network
[18:27] <erUSUL> ra21vi: install dir is usally --prefix=~/bin/
[18:27] <duffydack> is there an some plugin for compiz to minimise 'jaggies' (anti aliasing) or is there an option I`m missing
[18:27] <clusty> ssmy, and install it on ubuntu as windows printer
[18:27] <ssmy> clusty: i was under the impressiion that still required drivers for the printer.
[18:27] <menzza> hello does anyone know where I could get som help with freenas?
[18:27] <ssmy> clusty: k
[18:27] <ZykoticK9> ra21vi, couldn't you try use doing "./configure" "make" (skip "sudo make install") instead just copy the created binary to ~/bin?  Just a suggestion...
[18:28] <clusty> ssmy, hmm. i really never found any printers that did not work. sorry can't help more
[18:28] <erUSUL> ZykoticK9: he wants the binary to be statically linked
[18:28] <alkisg> I'd like to be able to let my users change their own real names. Any existing way to do that, other than writing my own wrapper around usermod and making it suid root?
[18:29] <Novatillo> clusty yest two computers have a ned card but I don't know how to share the red for two computers (one with linux ubuntu, and the other with Windows)
[18:29] <maco> alkisg: doesnt system -> preferences -> about me let them do that?
[18:29] <alkisg> maco: nope :(
[18:29] <clusty> Lint01, is there a way to mount/remount the partition without a sys restart? (i closed all processe4s i thought were using but still cannot mount)
[18:29] <alkisg> maco: the necessary data is in /etc/passwd, so users don't have access there.
[18:29] <maco> alkisg: i thought that application had magic *shrug*
[18:29] <Lint01> clusty, if you cannot forcefully dismount it, then no
[18:30] <clusty> Novatillo, are they connected to the same hub?
[18:30] <clusty> Novatillo, gotta restart back in 10sec
[18:30] <lorenzosu> I do sudo apt-get install libdb-dev but I get this error. http://pastebin.com/m162be106 Yet the mentioned package is installed.
[18:30] <NET||abuse> howdy folks,, i have an ubuntu web server, with a few sites on it, running ispconfig control panel, i'm being asked to setup some client signup forms with ssl for the users, and at the same time i've been asked to setup an ssl cert for another site's admin seciton.. both on the same server,,,, i seem to be thinking there's problems with putting seperate ssl certs on one shared hosting server?
[18:30] <NET||abuse> is this true?
[18:31] <igama> NET||abuse, yes its true
[18:31] <NET||abuse> arg,, what can i do?
[18:31] <igama> only the new Apache allows more than 1 SSL Cert per IP
[18:31] <NET||abuse> igama, new?
[18:31] <igama> NET||abuse, or you get another IP or you use the latest apache release
[18:32] <Novatillo> clusty thank you for helping me I must be going out.
[18:32] <lorenzosu> I do sudo apt-get install libdb-dev but I get this error. http://pastebin.com/m162be106 Yet the mentioned package is installed.
[18:33] <jrib> lorenzosu: have you been manually installing debs or mixing repositories for other versions of ubuntu/other distros?
[18:33] <lorenzosu> jrib: Indeed.
[18:33] <jrib> lorenzosu: that's why you have that error
[18:34] <lorenzosu> jrib: How can I get something more informative?
[18:34] <ssmy> is there any way to connect to a windows printer via samba that doesn't require a driver? the priinter in question does not have a linux driver...
[18:34] <jrib> lorenzosu: apt-cache policy PACKAGE  and follow the rabbit
[18:34] <lorenzosu> jrib: I mean 99% people install a deb sooner or later.
[18:34] <jrib> lorenzosu: (you need to undo what y ou did)
[18:34] <ssmy> clusty: that still required a driver, so no go.
[18:34] <jrib> lorenzosu: that's fine as long as the deb is for your version of ubuntu
[18:35] <igama> NET||abuse, look for "apache2 SNI"
[18:35] <clusty> ssmy, what printer is it (just so i know to stay well away of it)?
[18:35] <igama> NET||abuse, that will be the feature you need to support various SSL certs for the same IP
[18:35] <lorenzosu> jrib: Unfortunately ubuntu although very complete, doesn't provide everything.
[18:35] <ssmy> clusty: kodak esp 7. none of the kodak printers are compatible
[18:35] <jrib> lorenzosu: that doesn't contradict what I said :)
[18:36] <lorenzosu> jrib: The package mentioned is the jaunty one.
[18:37] <jrib> lorenzosu: do you want more help?
[18:37] <droid7> is it possible to get the gnome display configuration application on xubuntu?
[18:37] <NET||abuse> hmm, i'm looking at apache 2.0.55
[18:37] <lorenzosu> jrib: http://pastebin.com/ma12fb56
[18:37] <menzza> hello does anyone know where I could get som help with freenas?
[18:38] <NET||abuse> the distro of the server is dapper,, pretty old :(
[18:38] <erUSUL> !info grandr | droid7 maybe this fits the bill
[18:38] <ssmy> droid7: im sure there is but would require d/ling all gnome stuff. kind of pointless to use
[18:38] <jrib> lorenzosu: the package mentioned is -dev not that one
[18:38] <epple> need some help with vnc, when i try to run vncpasswd it throws: bash: /usr/local/bin/vncpasswd: No such file or directory    but there is vncpasswd in that dir, the only difference is that there is vncpasswd* (with *)
[18:38] <droid7> ah that sucks. i want to setup my dual monitors and the gnome one seems to be the only one that works
[18:38] <Scuttle> hm, I'm trying to get a Twinhav 2033 DVB-C tv-card to run in Ubuntu, so far without much success...does anyone have experiences with this card?
[18:39] <Scuttle> Twinhan even
[18:39] <SultansElephant> Hi, I have a WD MyBook or MY Essential whatever 500 gb external HD, but the file system only recognizes 160 GB of capacity out of 500.. but disk utility sees the whole thing as does lsusb
[18:39] <lorenzosu> jrib: ok thanks.. I had missed that
[18:39] <jrib> lorenzosu: basically you should try to apt-get install what it says you can't install and check versions of all packages mentioned with apt-cache policy recursively until you find the issue
[18:39] <lorenzosu> jrib: Ok thanks.
[18:40] <lorenzosu> jrib: Ok thanks again that looks the right way ... I'll follow that.
[18:40] <fahadsadah> Hello guys
[18:40] <fahadsadah> I'm having a problem with a sed regex.
[18:40] <crashsystems> xchat test...
[18:41] <fahadsadah> s\/\\\.\ is the regex.
[18:41] <fahadsadah> Should replace a / with a .
[18:41] <jrib> fahadsadah: woah!  That's ugly!  use # as your delimiter...
[18:41] <fahadsadah> jrib: I know.
[18:41] <ZykoticK9> SultansElephant, how did you format the drive?  did you try using fat from linux?
[18:41] <jrib> or something other than /
[18:41] <Edson`> When I try to install mIRC on ubuntu the Archives Manager gives me an error, and yes I have Wine
[18:41] <jrib> fahadsadah: s#/#.#
[18:41] <fahadsadah> jrib: I like long, obfuscated regexes.
[18:41] <fahadsadah> The only time I use / as a delimited is when I'm replacing /
[18:42] <jrib> fahadsadah: heh...
[18:42] <fahadsadah> fahad@infinity:~$ sed 's\/\\\.\'
[18:42] <fahadsadah> sed: -e expression #1, char 6: unknown option to `s'
[18:42] <jrib> fahadsadah: use what I said
[18:42] <wrapster> my screen flickers big time on ubuntu (64) i cannot increaset the refresh rate coz i donthave the nvidia drivers...
[18:42] <fahadsadah> I know that works.
[18:42] <wrapster> could anyone pls tell me which nvidia pkg i should download?
[18:43] <fahadsadah> I just would like to know, for future reference, how to escape a token should the delimiter be \
[18:43] <fahadsadah> By the way, that's not too ugly, compared to some others.
[18:43] <fahadsadah> ss\s\s\ss\s\ss
[18:43] <jrib> fahadsadah: try the sed channel....
[18:43] <lorenzosu> wrapster: I'm not on 64. But EnvyNG might be of help. It's an utility which helps you choose the nvidia driver.
[18:43] <fahadsadah> Replace sss with ss
[18:43] <lee> are you supposed to report issues with the experience on the 9.10 rc livecd, and if so where?  I had a pretty lousy time with installing flash yesterday
[18:43] <fahadsadah> jrib: There's a sed channel? =p
[18:43] <wrapster> lorenzosu: ok thanks
[18:44] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, check System / Admin / Hardware Drivers -- do you have nvidia listed?  is it activated?
[18:44] <jrib> fahadsadah: to do what you said it would just be s\/\.\  but I assume you have a different question
[18:44] <fahadsadah> lee: See #ubuntu+1, and Launchpad
[18:44] <fahadsadah> jrib: No, it wouldn't actually.
[18:44] <jrib> fahadsadah: why not?
[18:44] <fahadsadah> Because ., in a sed expression, means "anything"
[18:44] <mannnnnnb> --help
[18:44] <jrib> fahadsadah: not on the right hand side
[18:44] <fahadsadah> Would match any single character.
[18:44] <fahadsadah> Oh.
[18:44] <fahadsadah> jrib: THANKS
[18:44] <wrapster> ZykoticK9: no.. but i just got a restricted hardwares update available..
[18:44] <ebtek220> if i upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 will i lose my files and programs?
[18:44] <SultansElephant> What's the best format to format an external HD to
[18:44] <wrapster> so just installing it now.
[18:45] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, be sure ALL your updates are done
[18:45] <ebtek220> no
[18:45] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: I'd say ext3
[18:45] <ebtek220> i will when it comes out in a few days
[18:45] <yoyoned> SultansElephant: how will it by used
[18:45] <FreeFull> Unless you want to use it with Windows, then NTFS would be appriopiate
[18:45] <wrapster> ZykoticK9: apt-get update?
[18:45] <ebtek220> i do have a xp partition
[18:45] <ebtek220> is that a problem
[18:45] <wrapster> ZykoticK9: or apt-get upgrade
[18:45] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, followed by "apt-get upgrade"
[18:46] <wrapster> ok
[18:46] <askhader-dv6> What package has browser support for java applets and the like?
[18:46] <FreeFull> ebtek220: You will not lose anything
[18:46] <ebtek220> thanks. didn't think so, but wanted to make sure
[18:46] <guntbert> lee: karmic issues in #ubuntu+1
[18:46] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" all on one line ;)
[18:46] <FreeFull> ebtek220: I upgraded all the way from 6.10 to where I am now and nothing has gone wrong
[18:46] <zlobi_82> hello
[18:46] <SultansElephant> FreeFull/yoyoned: Well, right now it has two partitions with GParted one with NTFS and another one with a unique format
[18:46] <rapha> Hi!
[18:46] <wrapster> ok
[18:46] <ebtek220> thanks again
[18:46] <Edson`> When I try to install mIRC on ubuntu the Archives Manager gives me an error, and yes I have Wine
[18:46] <rapha> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a friend's computer but once I boot the Live CD the computer locks hard
[18:46] <rapha> can you help?
[18:47] <SultansElephant> FreeFull/yoyoned: But Ubuntu only recognizes about a 3rd of the NTFS format which is for backing up large amounts of data
[18:47] <GodfatherofEire> Quick question guys, if I have a suggestion for the dev-team, which channel should I send it to, MOTU or devel?
[18:47] <rapha> (i.e. the num lock and scroll lock led's start blinking and the mouse and keyboard stop responding)
[18:47] <zlobi_82> Me again, I again need help with changing code page. I want to change the default code page from UTF-8 to CP1251 w/o changing language for menus
[18:47] <SultansElephant> FreeFull/yoyoned: I guess recognizes might be the wrong word.. every disk utility sees the NTFS size but every file manager sees an oddly smaller drive
[18:48] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: Windows will read FAT and NTFS, so you might want to use FAT32 if you want better Linux compability. The problem with FAT32 though is that it doesn't support files over 4GB
[18:48] <epple> need some help with vnc, when i try to run vncpasswd it throws: bash: /usr/local/bin/vncpasswd: No such file or directory    but there is vncpasswd in that dir, the only difference is that there is vncpasswd* (with *)
[18:48] <zlobi_82> rapha: is this PC booting ok with another boot disk? Have you tested the install CD?
[18:48] <SultansElephant> FreeFull: I'd like to try and troubleshoot what I have right now because I would have transfer abpiut 150 gigs back to a local drive before formatting again
[18:48] <bullhornx> my ubuntu for some reason lost the ability to play audio... the sound preferences are not muted but it wont show a hardware device in the settings... any ideas?
[18:48] <rapha> zlobi_82: it's a USB stick ... let me go and test it
[18:49] <drew212> is there a way to create a mailing list like alot of the loco teams use?
[18:49] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: What does df say?
[18:49] <drew212> i know there is a way, how do i though? i need one for personal use.
[18:49] <zlobi_82> FreeFull: I don't see any problem with NTFS. In fact I recovered 1TB of data on NTFS disk under Linux, after all options under Win failed
[18:50] <raven_> i choosed the machine shall login itself but always it starts up and ends with a black screen and the mousecursor in the middle
[18:50] <raven_> what's going on here
[18:50] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: if df -h shows the correct size then don't worry about what file managers say
[18:50] <zlobi_82> bullhornx: no driver, update kernel, be careful
[18:51] <guntbert> raven_: try recovery/repair X
[18:51] <rapha> zlobi_82: "Check finished: no errors found"
[18:51] <raven_> guntbert, how?
[18:51] <zlobi_82> rapha: is the PC set in BIOS to boot from USB?
[18:51] <zlobi_82> As first device...
[18:51] <rapha> zlobi_82: er ... if it wasn't i could hardly boot it from the usb stick, could i?
[18:51] <rapha> oh
[18:52] <SultansElephant> FreeFull: df http://pastebin.com/d61643e98
[18:52] <rapha> zlobi_82: i was using the boot menu (F9 on this PC)
[18:52] <hisist> im trying to configure racoon on ubuntu but i get this error message when i try to telnet 2009-10-25 14:48:56: ERROR: phase2 negotiation failed due to time up waiting for phase1. ESP 10.0.2.15[0]->192.168.0.249[0]
[18:52] <rapha> zlobi_82: it locks up only after the login sound has played
[18:52] <zlobi_82> rapha: Well, you said it was freezing, not that you are getting any signs of boot
[18:52] <SultansElephant> FreeFull: df doesn't but disk utility does, mountmanager etc
[18:52] <hisist> any idea what the problem is?
[18:52] <rapha> zlobi_82: my wording was "once i boot" - sorry, might have been badly worded
[18:53] <rapha> zlobi_82: when i "try ubuntu" the lock-up comes after the login sound. when i do "install ubuntu" right from the boot prompt, then the lock-up comes after i chose language & time zone
[18:53] <zlobi_82> rapha: sorry, do not have other ideas, perhaps starting in fail-safe
[18:54] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: According to df the partition is 124.5GB big
[18:54] <guntbert> raven_: on booting press <F8> (or was it <ESC>?) to get the grub menu,...
[18:54] <rapha> zlobi_82: k trying but it looks like the graphics driver was okay
[18:54] <raven_> guntbert, right... tnx
[18:54] <zlobi_82> rapha, try to reformat / /home and swap if possible
[18:54] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: Maybe disk utility shows the partition as powers of 1000 while df shows as powers of 1024?
[18:55] <wrapster> ZykoticK9: i installed the nvidia drivers but now the gui is hung(happend last time also) but i can some network activity?
[18:55] <guntbert> raven_: Good luck :-)
[18:55] <wrapster> is it ok if i reboot or wait for a while
[18:55] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: Wait, how big was the partition really again?
[18:55] <SultansElephant> FreeFull: MountManager sees all 309.3 gigs of the partition
[18:55] <zlobi_82> Um, I thought I need an advice...
[18:55] <rapha> zlobi_82: its not yet installed. thanks for your help but your suggestions seem to indicate that you didnt rly read what my problem is.
[18:55] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: Ah
[18:56] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: And the drive is 500 GB?
[18:56] <SultansElephant> the NTFS part is 309.3.. there is another partition that is a special format that can only be read by a special application that is irrelevant
[18:56] <SultansElephant> 465.8
[18:56] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, what type of card are you using?
[18:56] <zlobi_82> I was guessing you are having some Linux already on the PC
[18:56] <zlobi_82> Sorry, doing my best
[18:56] <SultansElephant> 500 gb advertised, yeah
[18:56] <rapha> its okay :-) ... nah only Win XP on that box
[18:56] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: Well, this is a very strange situation. I'm afraid I can't help. Have you tried asking on the forums?
[18:57] <rapha> it's actually my brother's box; he's fed up with Win XP
[18:57] <BorisBoef> list
[18:57] <FreeFull> SultansElephant: But considering you need to transfer the data now, it might be else to try asking somebody else here
[18:57] <SultansElephant> FreeFull: I suspect MountManager edited something
[18:57] <zlobi_82> Now may I ask again, how do I change only default codepage to CP1251 w/o changing the menu language (w/o translating the interface)
[18:57] <rapha> zlobi_82: i removed the PCI WLAN card now as graphics and sound seem to work fine, so that's the only extension card left that might be a problem
[18:57] <antibody> quick question ubuntu 9.10 still doesn't have a easy fingerprint login solution right? You still have to fiddle with pam.d files? I don't like the auth with pam you can't type the password until you do fingerprint, so I always have to pass my finger. anyone has a kewl howto?
[18:58] <Lint01> zlobi_82, default codepage of what?
[18:58] <zlobi_82> Lint01: of ubuntu, system wide
[18:58] <zlobi_82> During install it is UTF-8
[18:58] <zlobi_82> Lint01: The one shown with $locale
[18:59] <SultansElephant> FreeFull: I'm just going to transfer the data back local and format again with ext3 instead of NTFS
[18:59] <ZykoticK9> SultansElephant, 465.8 is a 500G drive see following link for an explanation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive#Capacity_measurements
[18:59] <Lint01> zlobi_82, so why change it?
[18:59] <SultansElephant> Zykotick9: yes i know
[18:59] <fantasyforever> I have wine and when I try to install mIRC the Archive manager gives me this: [/home/myusername/Desktop/mirc635.exe]
[18:59] <fantasyforever>   End-of-central-directory signature not found.  Either this file is not

[18:59] <movela> hello everyone. i need a little help. please
[18:59] <zlobi_82> Lint01: Because I don't want to set each program over and over, I have problems with mp3 tags and I just want to know how ;)
[19:00] <FreeFull> fantasyforever: Why do you want to install mIRC?
[19:00] <SultansElephant> Zykotick9: my problem is some software/hardware conflict probably caused by mount manager
[19:00] <fantasyforever> FreeFull: I am used to it and I like it
[19:00] <ZykoticK9> SultansElephant, k
[19:00] <FreeFull> fantasyforever: Try asking in #winehq
[19:00] <SultansElephant> fantasyforever: mIRC runs fine on wine i'm pretty sure, search winehq.com
[19:00] <SultansElephant> !wine | fantasyforever
[19:00] <zlobi_82> People, can we save the "why you" part? This is not a court, right? :)
[19:01] <wrapster> ZykoticK9: i installed it.. but where do i go and chagne the settings?
[19:01] <fantasyforever> FreeFull/SultansElephant: alright
[19:01] <movela> how do i remove duplicate gnome menu items after installing kde 4.3? 9.04 here
[19:01] <SultansElephant> fantasyforever: I also recommend Crossover which costs money but makes wine a lot easier
[19:01] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, System / Admin / NVidia...
[19:01] <SultansElephant> fantasyforever: As well as PlayOnLinux
[19:02] <wrapster> ZykoticK9: you do not appear to be using the nvidia x driver ... edit x configurations.
[19:02] <ricerocketeer> hey guys, im using karmic beta 1, do i need to upgrade my whole distro to get to the release candidate?
[19:03] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, what version of nvidia where you trying 173 or 180?
[19:03] <zlobi_82> no idea abut changing default system codepage (UTF-8)?
[19:03] <wrapster> ZykoticK9: 180
[19:03] <SultansElephant> ricerocketeer: when karmic is final you should be able to update normally
[19:03] <wrapster> but i tried activiating it before i ran an upgrade...
[19:03] <ricerocketeer> ok
[19:04] <wrapster> will that fail?
[19:04] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, did you reboot after installing the driver?
[19:04] <wrapster> yes
[19:04] <SultansElephant> ricerocketeer: sudo apt-get update / sudo apt-get upgrade ; i mean you have all the normal repos so your once-beta distro will be recognized as a karmic install
[19:05] <wrapster> ZykoticK9: i dont even know if the driver was installed... all i could say was the network activitiy stopped.. coz everytime I use the GUI to install these drivers it freezes everything else on my system works just fine..only this window wont respond.
[19:05] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, what is the output of "lspci | grep -i vga"
[19:06] <Wicked> anyone know how i can rebuild the vmware modules on 9.04 after the kernel upgrade? vmware prompts for the root password to rebuild them...which doesnt work for obvious reasons....
[19:06] <wrapster> 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8300 (rev a2)
[19:06] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, could you pastebin the output of "apt-cache policy nvidia-180-kernel-source"
[19:06] <rapha> hmmm
[19:06] <Cryptic_Donkey> How does one launch uynetbootin in ubuntu?
[19:07] <FreeFull> Wicked: You could temporarily set a root password using sudo chpasswd
[19:07] <movela> Cryptic_Donkey: try sudo unetbootin
[19:07] <rapha> zlobi_82: looks like the PCI WLAN card is the culprit ... that would also explain why the connection is intermittent under Win XP ... I've removed it for the time being
[19:07] <Wicked> FreeFull, yea..thats really sub optimal though. there has to be a better way
[19:07] <rapha> hmm
[19:07] <FreeFull> Wicked: And once you don't need a root password anymore do sudo chpasswd again but just press enter instead of entering anything when it asks for a new password
[19:07] <wrapster> ZykoticK9: http://pastie.org/669185
[19:07] <FreeFull> Wicked: Hey, it works
[19:08] <rapha> how long should resizing a 65GB NTFS partition to 40GB take with the Ubuntu installier?
[19:08] <zlobi_82> rapha: glad that I helped :D
[19:08] <FreeFull> wrapster: It's not installed
[19:08] <wrapster> FreeFull: yeah got it when i say the o/p
[19:08] <FreeFull> rapha: not long
[19:08] <movela> rapha: it depends on many variables
[19:08] <wrapster> will do and upgrade and retry... Thanks
[19:08] <movela> your pc speed for one
[19:09] <ZykoticK9> wrapster, it's not installed!  "sudo apt-get install nvidia-180-kernel-source"
[19:09] <computa_mike> Hi guys - I have a remote administration question.  I want to connect remotely to my brothers machine so I can help him out with some stuff using something like remote desktop.  Using MSN messenger he can request remote assistance... Is there something I can do with Ubuntu - we're both running ubuntu desktop.  Any suggestions  or ideas?  I know there is the remote VNC thing, but that really only works well on the LAN.. 
[19:09] <movela> rapha: also make sure you defrag your windows partition fully to make sure it will work.
[19:10] <zlobi_82> ok, I need two things... to change my codepage and to visit the restroo. Please think about the first while I do the second alone ;) brb
[19:11] <rapha> movela: oh ... i didnt do that ... should i abort and run it now or should i let it run through anyway?
[19:13] <Korlis> what up all
[19:13] <Morgansl> Hi im having a small problem with workspaces. i can add them but once i add them i cant use the one i have added. it will not let me select the one i added. does anyone have any idea why i couldn't be able to use them?
[19:13] <tibrox> does Jaunty have SELinux enabled by default?
[19:14] <ZykoticK9> Morgansl, ubuntu w/compiz shortcut key is ctl+alt+ left or right arrow key
[19:14] <Korlis> Morgansl: are you using compiz or metacity or what
[19:14] <movela> rapha: are you trying to resize a windows partition and install ubuntu side by side?
[19:14] <Korlis> tibrox, i tink so
[19:14] <zedster> Hi, I have a shared printer on a win7 box, it was working till yesterday. Now ubuntu asks for auth and a pw. If I put that info in it still doesn't work and I get some d.bus error
[19:14] <ninjah> Is Amarok still the best music player in Linux? I was about to install it but thought I would ask. Ben using it for years.
[19:14] <tibrox> how to check if SELinux is running?
[19:14] <tibrox> ninjah, amrok rocks
[19:15] <Morgansl> ZykotickK9: that doesnt work
[19:15] <zedster> ninjah: I like rythembox but to each his own
[19:15] <Korlis> ninjah, the newest version is awesome, 2.2, but ive been using banshee since they revamped it for kde 4.x, so i haven't used it extnsively
[19:15] <ninjah> tibrox: Cool! I'll install it
[19:15] <Tux^1> Hi All, I am new to Linux(Ubuntu) can anyone tell me how i can check my current ip address via terminal window. In MS Windows we have ipconfig command. similarly do we have a command in linux.
[19:15] <zedster> Tux^1: IWCONFIG

[19:16] <ZykoticK9> !tab > Morgansl
[19:16] <Korlis> same here ninjah, i use gnome but i love amarok, it just didn't work well after the revamp
[19:16] <ZykoticK9> Morgansl, it certainly works for me
[19:16] <FreeFull> iwconfig is for wireless info
[19:16] <Tux^1> thanks a lot guys, ifconfig worked :)
[19:16] <ninjah> How come empathy doesn't highlight posts to me?
[19:16] <zlobi_82> hello again
[19:17] <FreeFull> !dual | novakane818
[19:17] <FreeFull> Hmm
[19:17] <dual> Hmm?
[19:17] <Morgansl> ZykoticK9: it doesnt work for me
[19:17] <dual> FreeFull, try dual boot or something
[19:17] <FreeFull> dual: Dual screen
[19:17] <BluesKaj> Tux^1, ifconfig
[19:17] <FreeFull> !dual screen
[19:17] <zedster> anyone else using samba and win7?
[19:18] <rapha> movela: yes
[19:18] <FreeFull> zedster: Why?
[19:18] <ninjah> zedster: Hows win7 and samba?
[19:18] <mark_> samba in win7???
[19:18] <dual> FreeFull, ok, I get 100s of info bubbles every day when you guys talk about dual boot and dual screen
[19:18] <rapha> movela: the resizing is already finished now, though
[19:18] <ZykoticK9> Morgansl, are you right clicking on the workspace switcher / preferences - and adding to Colume (NOT Rows)?
[19:18] <FreeFull> dual: Well, not our fault your nick is dual
[19:18] <novakane818> sorry thats was'nt  that clear yeah I meant two mointors on one dual headed graphics card
[19:19] <zedster> ninjah: bad, it was working, then I enabled the windows id streaming stuff (AWESOME) but it now ubuntu wants a pw to print to the 7 box
[19:19] <dual> FreeFull, didn't say so. ;)
[19:19] <ninjah> zedster: Windows id streaming? I don't know what that is.
[19:19] <Laurenceb> hi
[19:19] <patricoooz> Hi guys. I'm having some troubles with Ubuntu Tweak. I installed the wrong package, and now I can't even open the synaptic package manager. Anyone know what to do?
[19:19] <Laurenceb> can anyone help me get skype to work?
[19:19] <movela> great then...
[19:20] <malko> hi
[19:20] <Laurenceb> its saying "problem with audio playback"
[19:20] <Morgansl> ZykoticK9: im right clicking and adding columns
[19:20] <FreeFull> There should be a support channel for people who have windows-linux compability issues
[19:20] <Morgansl> ZykoticK9: but i cant get into the other workspace
[19:20] <Korlis> Laurenceb: check what output device it is using
[19:20] <FreeFull> patricoooz: Do you remember the name of the package?
[19:20] <zedster> ninjah: if you put in your @hotmail or @msn email in a 7 box, and then put it in on another box it tunnels your windows media player library, no poking holes, no firewall crap nothing. Since I have a win7 box at the office and the one at home is a media center = win
[19:20] <Laurenceb> ah got it
[19:20] <zlobi_82> I just had an idea. What about adding descriptions for the support members? i. e. Afrix(LangSup) for Language Support
[19:20] <ZykoticK9> Morgansl, can you see them in the workspace switcher?  can you click on them on it to switch?
[19:21] <ninjah> zedster: Nice!
[19:21] <Korlis> Laurenceb: yeah i got mine set to use my usb headset, and if it isnt plugged in i get that error
[19:21] <patricoooz> FreeFull, I believe it's karmic
[19:21] <Morgansl> ZykoticK9: i can see them in the switcher but i cant switch between them.
[19:21] <ZykoticK9> Morgansl, i have no idea man.  best of luck.
[19:22] <FreeFull> patricoooz: Hmm, karmic is the name of the next Ubuntu, so I have no idea of what you installed
[19:22] <zedster> so anyone have any idea how to stop samba from assuming I need a pw?
[19:22] <Morgansl> ZykoticK9: ok thanks anyway
[19:22] <zlobi_82> Please, tell me how to change ubuntu's default codepage from UTF-8 to CP1251, 9.04 here
[19:22] <FreeFull> zedster: Does it work fine from another windows machine?
[19:22] <BluesKaj> zedster, just use your login windows pw when samba dialog box asks for it, but make sure your target folders in w7 are shared
[19:22] <FuzzyFox0> hey all, I need some help
[19:22] <nawaflol> my openbox don't want to start ? how can i fix this
[19:22] <FreeFull> BluesKaj: He wants to print
[19:22] <patricoooz> FreeFull, I should have been installing jaunty, but I chose the karmic package from the ubuntu tweak
[19:22] <zedster> FreeFull: yes BluesKaj: tried that
[19:23] <Tux^1> Can anyone help me as to how i can check SSH Logs on my system
[19:23] <FuzzyFox0> I have a Trust TB-4200 graphics tablet and i need to get a driver for it
[19:23] <zlobi_82> What a coincidence, I need some help too and am flooding like mad w/o getting it :P
[19:23] <FuzzyFox0> all I can find are windows drivers though
[19:23] <FreeFull> patricoooz: Ah, that's what you meant
[19:23] <FuzzyFox0> anyone know if I can use windows drivers on ubuntu?
[19:24] <FuzzyFox0> or.... where to get a driver that works
[19:24] <zedster> FuzzyFox0: only for wirelss
[19:24] <FuzzyFox0> this tablet is wireless
[19:24] <zedster> FuzzyFox0: http://aiptektablet.sourceforge.net/index.html might help you, always google first
[19:24] <ericrw> zedster: technically, for any network driver :P
[19:24] <zlobi_82> FuzzyFox0: Maybe device is not supported (no driver). It is manufacturer's fault. However you can write some driver, with enough knowledge
[19:24] <patricoooz> FreeFull, I
[19:24] <FreeFull> patricoooz: try pressing alt+f2, typing in xterm, pressing ok, typing in sudo apt-get install synaptic and then seeing what happens
[19:24] <patricoooz> oops
[19:24] <FuzzyFox0> zedster: I just spent an hour lookinf

[19:26] <movela> how do i remove duplicate menu items? gnome
[19:26] <zedster> zlobi_82: ??
[19:26] <patricoooz> FreeFull, on almost everything I do, including what you told me to do now, I get the message; ubuntu-tweak needs to be reinstalled, but it can't find the package for it
[19:26] <FreeFull> zlobi_82: Try asking on the forums, it's unlikely anyone here right now knows
[19:26] <zlobi_82> zedster: I want to change what in Winboze is called System Locale
[19:26] <FreeFull> patricoooz: try sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-tweak
[19:26] <zlobi_82> So that all programs use CP1251 by default
[19:27] <zlobi_82> Not UTF-8
[19:27] <asdasdasd> Anyone know which /etc/apt/sources.list repositories to add in easypeasy to get more packages?
[19:27] <Sirisian> Anyone know where the getpid aka sys_getpid system call is located in the kernel source. I need to modify it for a project and there is no documentation about where it's located.
[19:27] <FreeFull> Sirisian: Try grepping for it
[19:27] <patricoooz> FreeFull, I get the same error; Needs to be reinstalled, but can't find the packah
[19:27] <patricoooz> package
[19:27] <zedster> HOLY COW CHROME FOR LINUX CAN NOW DOWNLOAD!!! (sorry kind of excited)
[19:27] <Sirisian> FreeFull, already did
[19:28] <zlobi_82> ptricoooz: try dpkg
[19:28] <Lint01> zedster, he needs xx_YY.CP1251 system locale
[19:28] <Lint01> are there gedit plugins to do regex search/replace
[19:28] <zlobi_82> 10x Lint01
[19:28] <ninjah> Will "apt-get -y dist-upgrade" upgrade an ubuntu 8.04 server to a new version of Ubuntu? I'm not looking to upgrade to a new version. I just want to upgrade some applications.
[19:28] <patricoooz> zlobi_82, sorry I'm a noob to ubuntu, what do I do with dpkg ?
[19:28] <zlobi_82> Precisely, bg_BG.CP1251
[19:29] <erUSUL> zedster: !? my chromium can download from day one... the change that mazed me most is that it can run flash almos flawlessly now
[19:29] <zlobi_82> patri: dpkg is the base manager, if it breaks, things are lost for me at least
[19:29] <jrib> ninjah: why -y?
[19:29] <zedster> erUSUL: no, the chrome OS browser from google
[19:29] <Tux^1> in Pidgin my media options are greyed out. How can i enable them
[19:29] <ninjah> jrib: The package "tzdata" needs to be upgraded.
[19:29] <asdasdasd> Can I add ubuntu repositories to my easypeasy install?
[19:30] <zlobi_82> patri: $sudo dpkg --help will tell...
[19:30] <jrib> ninjah: no, I mean why are you using the "-y" switch?
[19:30] <zedster> erUSUL: the google-chrome-unstable package
[19:30] <bensmith> tzdata seem to need updating a lot
[19:30] <patricoooz> Anyone know if there is a way to manually uninstall ubuntu tweak? I've tried everything else.
[19:30] <ninjah> jrib: The "-y" is the auto yes option.
[19:31] <bullhornx> sudo killall pulseaudio
[19:31] <bullhornx> sudo alsa force-reload
[19:31] <jrib> ninjah: I know what it is.  I'm asking you why would you use it?
[19:31] <bullhornx> these commands fixed my sound problem untill i reboot
[19:31] <bullhornx> then it happens again
[19:31] <FreeFull> patricoooz: Does it say anything else except for that the package is missing?
[19:31] <bullhornx> is there a way to make it permanent? im on 9.10 rc
[19:31] <bensmith> synaptic select ubuntu tweak
[19:31] <zlobi_82> hey, any progress on my codepage issue? :)
[19:31] <ninjah> jrib: I don't normally us the "-y" option. But it's nice if you upgrade a lot of packages. Don't have to answer all the questions
[19:32] <zlobi_82> patri: can't you unselect ubuntu tweak in Synaptics?
[19:32] <FreeFull> patricoooz: Also, what happens if you try installing the jaunty version?
[19:32] <jrib> ninjah: yes, that upgrades things, but generally when apt asks me questions I want to decide what to do.  It doesn't ask a lot of questions
[19:32] <Sirisian> FreeFull, Can you give me the command to grep for it? I guess a recursive search in all of the .c files would help me to find it. I looked online, but I can't find a command that will work. I guess I might have to use find and pipe that into grep or something?
[19:32] <athlan> hi
[19:33] <zlobi_82> hi
[19:33] <athlan> i have a problem with samba
[19:33] <RobLikesBrunch> Hello, I'm having difficulties installing my Encore ENLWI-N wireless card, and am wondering if someone can walk me through it?
[19:33] <RobLikesBrunch> I postedmore details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1300967
[19:33] <patricoooz> FreeFull, "E: The package ubuntu-tweak needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it."
[19:33] <ninjah> jrib: The question is normally a yes or no. that's why they give you the -y option. If you know you want all the upgrades just use the -y option.
[19:33] <athlan> nautilus is not able to resolve hostnames, although they are entered in the /etv/hosts file
[19:33] <FreeFull> Sirisian: grep -R "pattern" /directory
[19:33] <athlan> *etc
[19:33] <jrib> ninjah: no, because sometimes you will ask apt to do something and it asks you if you want to remove half your system
[19:34] <zlobi_82> patri: have you allowed all software channels?
[19:34] <FreeFull> patricoooz: Hmm, try asking on ubuntuforums.org
[19:34] <athlan> I am not able to browse the windows network
[19:34] <patricoooz> FreeFull, I have installed the jaunty version, and the application seems to work fine. but I can't remove the karmic. Ive been searching through the forums, but can't find any solution though others seems to have the same problem
[19:34] <FreeFull> athlan: Have you tried with konqueror?
[19:34] <zlobi_82> athlan: neither I, but I need to change my codepage first...
[19:34] <FreeFull> athlan: Or with Dolphin
[19:35] <athlan> hm
[19:35] <RobLikesBrunch> I need help with installing a PCI wifi card...can someone please help?
[19:35] <patricoooz> zlobi_82, software channels?
[19:35] <zlobi_82> Isn't it the same, Dolphin or Thunar/
[19:35] <ninjah> jrib: This is true. You can do "apt-get -s -y dist-upgrade" to test it first.
[19:35] <mikejet> I need a better "ifconfig" command.  Are there args that just print out each interface along with its IP/netmask/broadcast IPs?
[19:35] <athlan> great idea, but i would like to use nautilus... i have gnome, not kde
[19:35] <jrib> ninjah: but then you may as well just omit the -y :)
[19:35] <erUSUL> RobLikesBrunch: tell what chip the card uses. use « lspci | grep -i net »
[19:35] <zlobi_82> patri: yes, I mean have you enabled third-party software, etc.
[19:36] <FreeFull> zlobi_82: Thunar can't browse network shares and I find nautilus isn't terribly good at it
[19:36] <ninjah> jrib: Hmm... ya, could do that...
[19:36] <zlobi_82> Maybe you have disabled it when trying to remove
[19:36] <Sirisian> FreeFull, Wait that will search the files for that string? How would I search only in .c files?
[19:36] <FreeFull> Sirisian: Hmm...
[19:36] <LordQuackstar> By default, if you just use wubi to setup linux for you, how does it handle swap?
[19:36] <zlobi_82> FreeFull, Thanks, learned smth
[19:37] <athlan> FreeFull does it make any difference, if the pc, i intend connecting to is a xp pro machine or a xp home?
[19:37] <RobLikesBrunch> erUSUL, that didn't tell me much, but I believe it is an RT2870
[19:37] <zlobi_82> Indeed, Dolphin was great on my first kUbuntu tries
[19:37] <RobLikesBrunch> I don't think Ubuntu recognizes the card anymore after I tried installing it using Windows Wireless Drivers...
[19:37] <athlan> FreeFull  zlobi_82 does it make any difference, if the pc, i intend connecting to is a xp pro machine or a xp home?
[19:37] <kappa7> helo
[19:37] <kappa7> can help me?
[19:38] <erUSUL> RobLikesBrunch: you have to use the rt2870sta.ko driver
[19:38] <zlobi_82> athlan: For simple sharing, I do not believe it does
[19:38] <shiznebit> kappa7, ask the question
[19:38] <gizmobay> I've mounted a nfs share between two computers. If I open up thunar I can see the files but when I go to the directory via CLI and do a ls nothing shows
[19:38] <erUSUL> RobLikesBrunch: sudo modprobe rt2870sta
[19:38] <gizmobay> what am I doing wrong?
[19:38] <pshr_> what can ubuntu do for my nokia 5800 it doesnt even support ovi.. god!!!!!!
[19:38] <kappa7> have problem in smb share permission whit user nobody
[19:38] <chomwitt> hi. does nfs support network browsing funtionality like samba (if i understand a samba client can scan a lan in search of smb shares) ?
[19:39] <patricoooz> zlobi_82, where do I check that?
[19:39] <athlan> FreeFull  zlobi_i AM able to connect through nautilus, when using the ip e.g. smb://192.168.1.35/
[19:39] <tavasti> mikejet, try  ifconfig | grep -E 'addr:|encap'

[20:21] <Korlis> patricoooz: now try the sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq ubuntu-tweak
[20:21] <guntbert> patricoooz: you know that ubuntu-tweaks is not supported?
[20:21] <Bodsda> Korlis: too quick for me :)
[20:21] <tobiassjosten> guntbert: I got the password. How do I find out the encryption? It's the default LVM encryption option from the alternate cd installer.
[20:22] <Random832> okay

[20:39] <mikebl> thank you trism... =)
[20:41] <BullHorn> trism, yes im there
[20:42] <BullHorn> do i need to write the full command, ie: sudo alsa force-reload
[20:42] <BullHorn> or since its root just alsa force-reload trism?
[20:42] <kma> BullHorn, just alsa force-reload
[20:42] <BullHorn> ok thanks
[20:43] <ninjah> If I stick files and directories into the UbuntuOne directory do they get uploaded to the server?
[20:43] <guntbert> BullHorn: if it doesn't work try to use the full path (/sbin/alsa ...)
[20:44] <BullHorn> uhhh
[20:44] <BullHorn> it worked i believe!
[20:44] <guntbert> ninjah: if it works, they should, yes
[20:44] <BullHorn> i just heard the login sound :D
[20:44] <ninjah> guntbert: Cool! Guess I just need to wait for all the files to upload.
[20:45] <kma> BullHorn: cool :)
[20:45] <guntbert> ninjah: mine doesn't connect just now...
[20:45] <BullHorn> kma guntbert but there is a problem... it fixes my no-sound problem but each boot the master volume is on MUTE and is also on 0%
[20:46] <BullHorn> so i have to unmute and raise it each time... any ideas?
[20:46] <VCoolio> is there a command to run an app with different language settings (like there is to run an app with a different theme) ? Sort of "env LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8" (only that doesn't work)
[20:46] <ninjah> guntbert: is the service reliable?
[20:46] <mikebl> gee.. i guess i have to keep asking.. im running jaunty on thosiba laptop (kind of old) A40-SP270 it has a built in atheros wifi card, i just cant get to the screen and see available wireless networks.. what could i do guys?
[20:46] <mikebl> thanks in advance.. =)
[20:46] <roger2> hello, i was trying to update video card driver with ENVY, ruined everything, i have scrambled video, tried recovery mode graphics fix, no luck..how can i undo everyting ENVY did
[20:47] <trism> VCoolio: LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8 command_here
[20:47] <guntbert> ninjah: for me - up till now - NO
[20:47] <kma> BullHorn as long as your fix works, I guess it's fine. Don't try to be a perfectionist :-P
[20:47] <trism> VCoolio: or export LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8, and then the rest of the commands in that shell will execute with the new locale
[20:47] <prince_jammys> VCoolio: if you prepend variable assignments to the command, they are passed to the environment of that command: '' EDITOR=vim crontrab -e ''
[20:48] <BullHorn> kma well its annoying... i installed ubuntu today, everything worked fine, 2-3 reboots and soundcard is gone
[20:48] <BullHorn> :/
[20:48] <ninjah> guntbert: I was afraid of that. I haven't had much luck either. I think the service needs work. Hope they can fix it soon.
[20:48] <kma> BullHorn, did you setup any updates? What version are you using?
[20:49] <prince_jammys> now all you have to do is install ''crontrab'' :) (i meant crontab)
[20:49] <BullHorn> its 9.10rc
[20:49] <BullHorn> and ive installed all the updates
[20:49] <VCoolio> trism: the first one didn't work; the second one: does that only affect the current shell or does that reset for all new commands during this session?
[20:49] <ctmjr> roger2: sudo apt-get --purge remove envy or envyng what ever it is called
[20:49] <bullhornx> lets talk here kma
[20:49] <bullhornx> i have to fold the screen each time lol
[20:50] <trism> VCoolio: should just be the current shell, surprised the first one didn't work though (I do it all the time for japanese software, LANG=ja_JP.sjis wine blah.exe)
[20:50] <prince_jammys> VCoolio: when you prepend the assignments, they don't affect your current shell, only the environment of the command. when you assign and export, they affect both.
[20:50] <roger2> ctmjr: another user told me to try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" what is difference...i am a noob
[20:51] <guntbert> BullHorn: maybe its different in karmic - so ask in #ubuntu+1
[20:51] <Strife89> http://pastebin.com/m7d647ee3
[20:51] <VCoolio> trism: thanks, I think the problem is with the localization of the app, going to look into that now
[20:51] <ctmjr> roger2: run that after getting rid of envy
[20:51] <roger2> i just want the original driver that 9.04 installed
[20:52] <vip3rousmango> Hey guys, I'm trying to install Adobe Air (its a .bin) and i'm having trouble chmoding the file
[20:52] <anoldhacker> I'm having trouble with 8.04-64 wireless.  I've got wpa_supplicant setup, and it is logging in automatically.  Two problems.  1) after a while, firefox won't connect.  (Ping continues just fine).  2) NM says I'm not connected, and attempting to reestablish _never_ works.
[20:52] <mhz`> chmod +x file.bin
[20:52] <mhz`> ./file.bin
[20:53] <mhz`> vip3rousmango: read above
[20:53] <anoldhacker> vip3rousmango:  You probably need to use sudo.
[20:53] <mhz`> sudo chmod +x file.bin
[20:53] <mhz`> sudo ./file.bin
[20:53] <vip3rousmango> same thing happends, I get you don't have permissions
[20:54] <anoldhacker> vip3rousmango: are yo in the sudoers file?  Try sudo su -.  what does that say?
[20:54] <prince_jammys> vip3rousmango: check your architecture ('' uname -a '') and paste here the output of (''file  yourfile.bin'')
[20:54] <vip3rousmango> okay
[20:55] <prince_jammys> uname -m will do
[20:55] <roger2> ctmjr: it says it cant find package
[20:55] <vip3rousmango> Linux openGEULaptop 2.6.24-25-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct 20 07:31:10 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[20:55] <prince_jammys> ok, i686
[20:55] <ctmjr> roger2: how did you install it?
[20:55] <guntbert> anoldhacker: sudo su - is NOT recommended on not necessary
[20:56] <guntbert> *and
[20:56] <anoldhacker> guntbert:  It is if you are trying to figure out if you can sudo or not.
[20:56] <prince_jammys> vip3rousmango: what about the output of '' file yourfile.bin ''
[20:56] <guntbert> anoldhacker: for that purpose sudo ls /root will do as well :)
[20:56] <prince_jammys> sudo echo hello should suffice
[20:57] <vip3rousmango> their is none, it just asks for password
[20:57] <llutz> anoldhacker: "sudo -l"
[20:57] <roger2> ctmjr: i dl with synaptic manager
[20:57] <prince_jammys> vip3rousmango: file NameofFile    should give you some info about the file.
[20:57] <guntbert> llutz: great, I forgot that one
[20:57] <ninjah> What the hell. It looks like Ubuntu One ate one of my files. I'm waiting for the directory to refresh on my side.
[20:58] <llutz> stupid idea to run commands as root to test sudo....
[20:58] <vip3rousmango> prince_jammys: AdobeAIRInstaller.bin: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
[20:58] <prince_jammys> vip3rousmango: ok, fine.
[20:58] <drdre> ppl im in love ....
[20:58] <drdre> Viva Ubuntu ,,,,
[20:58] <guntbert> !ot | drdre
[20:59] <roger2> lol
[20:59] <Strife89> Not much longer 'till the release. :)
[20:59] <drdre> sorry my bad
[20:59] <ctmjr> roger2: go back in synaptic and mark it for complete removal then apply the changes

[21:01] <achilles> guys how can I echo the " in the sentence ?
[21:01] <achilles> in a bash script

[21:01] <achilles> guntbert, thanks!
[21:02] <LordQuackstar> ok, i'm trying very hard to get ubuntu to mainly use the swapfile on an internal hd instead of my portable hd.  in fstab, i auto-mounted the internal (works), but i can't mount the swapfile. here's the line: /media/internal1/1024Mb.swap  none  swap  sw,pri=60  0 0. Any idea's?
[21:02] <roger2> ctmjr: the display is scrambled, it wont get to the desktop, i tried recovery mode xfix, no help, i need to undo everything ENVY did
[21:03] <roger2> should i just reinstall ubuntu 9.04 again?
[21:03] <kisuke> LordQuackstar: try sudo swapon <partition>
[21:03] <athlan_> hi
[21:03] <LordQuackstar> kisuke: i know i can do that, but i want to do this automatically
[21:03] <athlan_> is anyone here familiar with sambs
[21:03] <athlan_> *samba?
[21:04] <KB1JWQ> athlan_: Ask.
[21:04] <kisuke> LordQuackstar:  it should auto swapon if detected
[21:05] <Lint01> some process is eating my free disk space right now. how can I find it until system come to a halt?
[21:05] <LordQuackstar> kisuke: well with my current config this is what i get: http://pastebin.com/d15fce3a1. No autodetection
[21:05] <Italian_Plumber> open a console and type "top"
[21:05] <ctmjr> roger2: ok in the terminal run this sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg then reboot see if you can get a gui
[21:05] <alabd> thanks everyone bye
[21:06] <athlan_> I am having trouble browsing my samba shares with nautilus
[21:06] <vip3rousmango> Awesome! I got it working, thanks guys!
[21:06] <athlan_> KBIJWQ I am having trouble browsing my samba shares with nautilus
[21:07] <kisuke> LordQuackstar: you just left the realm of my knowledge sorry
[21:07] <KB1JWQ> athlan_: Firewall issue?
[21:07] <guntbert> LordQuackstar: the swap should be listed in /etc/fstab
[21:07] <athlan_> KBIJWQ maybe
[21:07] <LordQuackstar> guntbert: it is
[21:07] <LordQuackstar> guntbert: /media/internal1/1024Mb.swap  none  swap  sw,pri=60  0 0
[21:08] <athlan_> KBIJWQ i shut it down, and now i do see the pcs under "Windows network", but i cannot browse them.
[21:08] <Catalin> hello all
[21:08] <avrPhreaque> Query:   If I install Ubuntu onto a HDD on a P4 3GHz w/512MB of RAM, will that install boot and run when the HDD is moved into a 2.16GHz AthlonX2 w 3GB of RAM?
[21:08] <Catalin> can someone assist me with a small problem
[21:09] <pagix> Catalin, what problem ?
[21:09] <Catalin> i want to install Ktorrent and i don`t know how
[21:09] <KB1JWQ> avrPhreaque: Mostly. :-)
[21:09] <guntbert> LordQuackstar: remove the "other" swap line from /etc/fstab
[21:09] <KB1JWQ> Catalin: sudo apt-get install ktorrent?
[21:09] <avrPhreaque> KB1JWQ: what does "mostly" mean, in this context?
[21:09] <pagix> idd, sudo apt-get install ktorrent
[21:09] <Catalin> sudo apt-get install ktorrent
[21:09] <Catalin> sudo: cannot get working directory
[21:09] <Catalin> Reading package lists... Done

[21:09] <FloodBot3> Catalin: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:09] <Catalin> E: Couldn't find package ktorrent
[21:09] <LordQuackstar> guntbert: This is a portable installation, so if if can't find the internal swapfile, it switches to the one on the portable
[21:10] <chsaedawg1> can someone help me with an issue?
[21:10] <pagix> chsaedawg1, what issue?
[21:10] <Catalin> is not working guys
[21:11] <Catalin> is not working KB1JWQ
[21:11] <pagix> have you tried google it ?
[21:11] <Catalin> yes
[21:11] <guntbert> LordQuackstar: ah, now I see why you have the pri entry - I'll have to do a bit of reading - BB
[21:11] <LordQuackstar> alright
[21:11] <Catalin> that`s why i`ve entered here
[21:11] <chsaedawg1> When I am using Ubuntu, My mouse is moving to the bottom left hand of the screen. I cant use my mouse when it does that.
[21:12] <Catalin> any ideea how to install it?
[21:12] <vlt> avrPhreaque: Yes, it will run there.
[21:12] <Vashta_Nerada> Can someone point me to some documentation that will show me how to :
[21:12] <Vashta_Nerada> 1.check to see if SSH is installed
[21:12] <Vashta_Nerada> 2.check to see if it's running
[21:12] <Vashta_Nerada> 3.turn it on if it's not running
[21:12] <FloodBot3> Vashta_Nerada: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:12] <kisuke> Catalin: use synaptic
[21:12] <Vashta_Nerada> 4.make it start running by default after a reboot
[21:12] <mrmcgibby> I'm having problem getting pdflatex to work.  latex -> dvi and dvi -> pdf seems to work, but direct pdflatex gives me: http://paste.ubuntu.com/301569/
[21:12] <Vashta_Nerada> Sorry for the noob question.  I'm just finding certain documentations confusing and not entirely to the point of what I'm looking for.  I was hoping someone here could maybe turn me on to something.
[21:13] <Catalin> kisuke, i never found it in synaptic, this was my 1st try
[21:13] <avrPhreaque> KB1JWQ said "mostly."  Can anyone explain what that might mean, in real terms?
[21:13] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: :-O nice nick!
[21:13] <VCoolio> with git, how do i update a branch I already downloaded some time ago?
[21:13] <Vashta_Nerada> thanks
[21:13] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: ssh server you mean?
[21:13] <KB1JWQ> avrPhreaque: Depends how different the hardware is.
[21:13] <Vashta_Nerada> Dalek was taken
[21:13] <Vashta_Nerada> yes
[21:13] <guntbert> LordQuackstar: 1) try to increase the priority (up to 32767), 2) run swapon -av to make it more verbose
[21:13] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: for 1 "dpkg -l openssh-server"
[21:13] <KB1JWQ> avrPhreaque: It used to be that everything was loaded by default-- I THINK it customizes a bit on install now.
[21:14] <Catalin> something is wrong and i don`t know what it is
[21:14] <Vashta_Nerada> i'll go to the machine
[21:14] <KB1JWQ> So if you vary too widely, avrPhreaque, you'll see breakage.
[21:14] <KB1JWQ> I'd try it and see.
[21:14] <LordQuackstar> gentbert: Well the swap on the portable is -1, so i don't think changing 60 to 30000 is goin to help
[21:14] <avrPhreaque> KB1JWQ:  OK, thanks for the3 info
[21:14] <Catalin> any other options ?
[21:14] <Vashta_Nerada> chsaedawg1: you should test the mouse out on another machine before you do anything
[21:15] <chsaedawg1> Oh its my mouse built into my laptop
[21:15] <kisuke> Catalin: try reloading you package lists
[21:15] <LordQuackstar> guntbert: Thats interesting... http://pastebin.com/m6be835
[21:15] <roger2> ctmjr: no luck, what should i try next? still same scrambled display
[21:15] <vlt> avrPhreaque: I changed hardware several times and never had problems. If your pc has a video card maybe you have to install a (proprietary) driver ...
[21:16] <menzza> Hello anyone that uses freenas in here?
[21:16] <LordQuackstar> guntbert: Maybe it would help if i removed the ro option from the internal automount... Thanks for the help!
[21:16] <guntbert> LordQuackstar: set the priority for the key to 0 (not -1) - I guess thats the fault anyway
[21:16] <marekw2143> hi, is there any posssibility to easli install postgres-client8.4 on ubuntu 8.10?
[21:16] <ScottTheiGuy> Is there a way to triboot Mac OS X, Ubuntu, and Windows on a late 2008 unibody Macbook Pro?
[21:16] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: for 2 "service ssh status"
[21:16] <guntbert> and LordQuackstar read man swapon
[21:16] <vlt> !anyone | menzza
[21:16] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: 3 "sudo service ssh start"
[21:17] <LordQuackstar> guntbert: I did multiple times but it didn't help me much
[21:17] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: for 4, "ln -s /etc/init.d/ssh /etc/rcS.d/" i think

[21:19] <guntbert> !paste | twan_vdp
[21:19] <secc> !isitoutyet
[21:19] <twan_vdp> Does anyone know why this isn't working ? The port 27015 should be accesseble from outside, I have only one IP
[21:20] <twan_vdp> afterwords I use fw_clear and fw_start
[21:20] <ryguy> How would I figure out which harddrive a partition is on?
[21:21] <peepsalot> anyone here going to a local release party for karmic?
[21:21] <guntbert> twan_vdp: where is 85.... inside or outside?
[21:21] <ArchGT> peepsalot: im helping to host one
[21:21] <peepsalot> ArchGT, cool, have you done one before?
[21:21] <twan_vdp> thats my dedicated server guntbert
[21:22] <twan_vdp> thats one server
[21:22] <ArchGT> peepsalot: some friends have, I don't
[21:22] <guntbert> twan_vdp: the same as the router?
[21:22] <ArchGT> peepsalot: but i think it's going to be fun
[21:22] <Vashta_Nerada> maco: 1 didn't work unkown option -1
[21:22] <ctmjr> roger2: try this and see if it helps envyng --uninstall-all then sudo dpkg -P envy
[21:22] <vlt> ryguy: The partition name is /dev/<disk><num>, so /dev/sda5 for example is on /dev/sda
[21:22] <peepsalot> ArchGT, what do people do at one?  just hang around, burn cds and talk ubuntu?
[21:22] <guntbert> !ot | peepsalot
[21:23] <twan_vdp> guntbert, is this helpfull to explain my situation ? http://dpaste.com/111891/
[21:23] <ryguy> vlt: I'm trying to fix grub and I need the hd number like hd0 or hd1
[21:23] <ArchGT> peepsalot: it's in a mall, we are doing install fest, demos and talks to new users
[21:23] <Vashta_Nerada> nm the option was L.... sorry
[21:23] <ctmjr> roger2: then reboot again
[21:23] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: thats a lowercase L
[21:24] <guntbert> twan_vdp: there is no need for NAT, just -J ACCEPT
[21:24] <vlt> ryguy: hmmm, you could run grub, enter "root (hd<TAB>" and see what it offers you.
[21:24] <twan_vdp> guntbert. like this ? iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 27015 -j ACCEPT
[21:25] <Vashta_Nerada> i get a cryptic answer
[21:25] <ryguy> vlt: all this does is enter a tab character into the terminal
[21:25] <Random832> so what happened to the devfs names for disks? like /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1?
[21:25] <Vashta_Nerada> i know it used to work
[21:25] <trism> ryguy: try find /boot/grub/menu.lst
[21:25] <Vashta_Nerada> i rebooted
[21:25] <trism> ryguy: in the grub shell
[21:25] <guntbert> twan_vdp: no - gimme a moment
[21:25] <Vashta_Nerada> now it'm not sure
[21:25] <Vashta_Nerada> i can't connect
[21:26] <ryguy> trism: That's the file I'm editing, I need to know which hd Windows is installed on
[21:26] <The_Man_Behind_t> Has anyone had problems with udev after downgrading from Karmic to Jaunty?

[21:27] <Vashta_Nerada> openssh-server  1:5 lpl-5ubunt secure shell server , an rshd replacement
[21:27] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: itll either start with "ii" and give a version number, meaning its installed, or itll say it doesnt know what youre talking aout, meaning its not intalled
[21:27] <Vashta_Nerada> ii
[21:27] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: ok then its installed
[21:27] <Vashta_Nerada> right
[21:27] <Vashta_Nerada> ok... we're getting somewhere, thanks

[21:28] <achpile> Hi, everybody =)
[21:28] <ximusic> I tried to shut my eeepc down using 'sudo shutdown 90' But it stopped during shutdown. I use eeebuntu. Does anybody now what is the problem?
[21:28] <trism> ryguy: then try sudo fdisk -l and look for the hard drive with the ntfs filesystem
[21:28] <LinuX2half> The bar only managed to reach half way
[21:28] <trism> ryguy: sda should be hd0, sdb hd1, etc
[21:28] <wamty> I cannot see any available wlan's in ubuntu jaunty. tried reenabling with no luck... anyone have any ideas?
[21:29] <wamty> ?

[21:29] <gemma> \j #ubuntu-fr
[21:29] <ryguy> trism: No I understand where to find the partition and what harddisk its on (sdb) but I need to know what harddrive number its on, such as 'hd0' or 'hd1'
[21:29] <Vashta_Nerada> 2. not running...
[21:30] <trism> ryguy: hd1

[21:32] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: youve got it misconfigured then
[21:32] <Vashta_Nerada> i see

[21:33] <Vashta_Nerada> trying to find the file now
[21:33] <OlliW> just a short stupid question... since I'm confused... if I set permissions on a folder I own... like 664... why can't I go into that directory anymore... I thought I just to took away the executable bit?
[21:33] <johnnats> Hey, I have a dualboot system, Grub. Now I can not boot my other OS and the menu.lst doesn't look wrong
[21:33] <blkdg> hi, i am running 9.04 on a PPC iMac with a ATI Rage 128 card. my xorg.conf is relativly empty. when i Driver   "ati"  and "r128 "to it in the device section, x will not boot. i have run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg to generate the xorg.conf script each time i've messed it up as well. is there a way to probe this hardware?
[21:33] <LinuX2half> why when I boot my computer, the splash screen suddenly turned to text mode, the bar only managed to run half way before the screen turned to text displaying various services that was being loading, giving the note "OK" or "Fail"?
[21:34] <roger2> ctmjr: ok ENVY is completely removed...still get scrambled video..does not go to desktop...how do i reconfigure to original ubunto 9.04 video driver
[21:34] <guntbert> OlliW: for folders its exactly so - x means "can enter"
[21:35] <Vashta_Nerada> geez i got 2 of each: ssh_config~ and ssh_config
[21:35] <OlliW> guntbert: ok, that explains a lot :P
[21:35] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: ~ means the one open in your editor at the time
[21:35] <maco> usually
[21:35] <guntbert> !permissions | OlliW
[21:35] <roger2> ctmjr: iget the "ubuntu progrress logo" but then it goes to scrambled video display
[21:35] <Vashta_Nerada> i don't have an editor open!
[21:35] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: possibly yu had one open and closed without saving?
[21:36] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: its a backup file
[21:36] <Vashta_Nerada> right
[21:36] <MJ94> [16:34:26] -*- nathan replaces Katelin with MJ49

[21:36] <MJ94> [16:35:12] <LordLandon> From over a year ago!
[21:36] <Vashta_Nerada> so delete it? rename it?
[21:36] <OlliW> guntbert: yeah I know... I was reading tutorials like mad.. must have read right over it :P maybe i need sleep or something :P
[21:36] <roger2> is there a "CTRL-ALT-DEL" version for linux?
[21:36] <twan_vdp> guntbert i edited some stuff. now it looks like this+ http://dpaste.com/111896/
[21:36] <roger2> im tired of powering off and powering on laptop
[21:36] <nathan7> MJ94: ..why'd you paste that here?
[21:36] <maco> roger2: if youre in a terminal, that same combination would reboot
[21:36] <blue-frog> roger2: to do what?
[21:36] <MJ94> Testing my paste.
[21:36] <LinuX2half> why when I boot my computer, the splash screen suddenly turned to text mode, the bar only managed to run half way before the screen turned to text displaying various services that was being loading, giving the note "OK" or "Fail"?
[21:36] <twan_vdp> gintbert, but when i `telnet <IP> 27015` in windows command prompt is says the connection failes
[21:36] <MJ94> It's not working
[21:36] <roger2> ok
[21:37] <roger2> thanks
[21:37] <blkdg> roger2, from a term try shutdown -h
[21:37] <maco> roger2: an unsafe reboot would be alt+sysrq+b. a safe one where your disk is properly synced and everything would be alt+sysrq held down while you slowly type reisub
[21:37] <Rugg> /sbin/shutdown -h now even
[21:37] <blkdg> roger2, also shutdown -hr now for a reboot
[21:37] <maco> roger2: where slowly means waiting a full second or two in between
[21:37] <maco> blkdg: -hr? whats the h?
[21:37] <guntbert> twan_vdp: did you correctly configure your smtp server? open relays are a dangerous thing
[21:37] <blkdg> maco reboot
[21:37] <trism> maco: halt
[21:37] <maco> blkdg: i thought h was jsut for "halt" as in "shutdown, dont reboot"
[21:38] <maco> blkdg:  and reboot was just plain -r
[21:38] <blkdg> maco h for halt r for reboor
[21:38] <blkdg> r/t
[21:38] <maco> blkdg: so...when you do both, the r wins out?
[21:39] <maco> roger2: theres also the simple "sudo reboot"
[21:39] <twan_vdp> guntbert, i'll check one and another, thanks for notice. can you tell me why I cant "telnet <IP> 27015" from another pc ?
[21:39] <guntbert> twan_vdp: and line 12 seems (at least in the short version) DANGEROUS
[21:39] <blkdg> maco, no, it halts, then it reboots.
[21:39] <ctmjr> h and r are 2 different options your wasting your time running them together
[21:40] <roger2> ok..so i uninstalled ENVY...i get the "ubuntu progress logo" then i get scrambled video display when it tries to go desktop
[21:40] <roger2> any advice
[21:40] <maco> wamty: say it like "network manager is not showing any scan results. i am using a broadcom wireless card in jaunty."
[21:40] <guntbert> twan_vdp: don't enable the MTA before you are *sure* its configured correctly!!!!
[21:40] <scream> I have a program (server) yacy that I'm running on port 8080.  I've forwarded my router to this machine on 8080 for both tcp and udp.  I've not set any firewall on ubuntu.  Is there something I need to do special on ubuntu to permit this server to run?
[21:40] <twan_vdp> guntbert the default policy should be DROP
[21:41] <roger2> i did "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" but it asks me questions about my keyboard and not video settings
[21:41] <guntbert> twan_vdp: but you opened smtp!!!!
[21:41] <maco> roger2: are people still suggesting that?
[21:41] <wamty> maco: im having a hard tme to fix thsi
[21:41]  * Szajbus is now away: www.szajbus.eu Se me There
[21:41] <maco> roger2: it hasnt asked about video settings in years...
[21:41] <mgv2> there is a message i cant close in tb
[21:41] <xadart> i got a new computer without an operating system installed. im having problems installing ubuntu, is there something i need to do to prepare it?
[21:41] <ctmjr> roger2:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[21:41] <mesula> usb-creator is stuck at 81%...
[21:41] <mesula> It keeps doing this to me.
[21:42] <Vashta_Nerada> maco: you have any clue as to what might be wrong with my config?
[21:42] <maco> ctmjr: seriouslly, that hasnt reconfigured video in years
[21:42] <seyfarth> Can anyone recommend a good open-source alternative to Microsoft Project? I just need to throw together a WBS
[21:42] <maco> Vashta_Nerada: nope sorry
[21:42] <roger2> ctmjr: i will try it
[21:42] <Vashta_Nerada> what if i pasted it?
[21:42] <maco> ctmjr: like...i think feisty was the last one where that command did what youre trying to make it do
[21:42] <xadart> hi, i got a new computer without an operating system installed, im having problems installing ubuntu, is there any preliminary things i need to do before i can install an OS?
[21:42] <twan_vdp> guntbert, I'm gonna check things out. Do you have any suggestions for the 27015 accept?
[21:42] <ctmjr> maco: sorry your wrong
[21:43] <mgv2> how to kill thunderbird msg?
[21:43] <vlt> xadart: What problems?
[21:43] <maco> ctmjr: all it does is backup xorg.conf then reconfigure your keyboard. thats all its done for a long time.
[21:43] <guntbert> twan_vdp: first things first - please immediately shut down your postfix (if it is running)
[21:43] <xadart> vlt, it crashes during install. i got to 55%, then it just all freeze, the monitor goes off
[21:44] <maco> ctmjr: i just tried it again on karmic. with -phigh it just exits, thats all
[21:44] <twan_vdp> guntbert done
[21:44] <roger2> ctmjr: did first command says overwriting possibly customized configuration file etc...going onto 2nd command
[21:44] <xadart> when you get a new computer is there anything you need to do before you put an OS on it?
[21:44] <maco> roger2: like i said, first command doesnt reconfigure video anymore
[21:44] <sblunix> xadart: not really...
[21:44] <guntbert> twan_vdp: what is listening on 27015?
[21:44] <knoppies> xadart, unplug all your excess hardware, and try to install it on a barebone system, see if it installs
[21:44] <xadart> damn
[21:44] <twan_vdp> half life ^^
[21:45] <knoppies> xadart, the only thing you should need to do before putting an OS on a PC is formatting the HDD, but ubuntu does that for you.
[21:46] <xadart> knoppies okay cheers
[21:46] <twan_vdp> guntbert i want to play a game with some friends, the server listens on 27015
[21:46] <guntbert> twan_vdp: I was asking because not every server says "hi" if it is connected - are you certain that halflife uses tcp and not udp?
[21:46] <Vashta_Nerada> xadart: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows
[21:46] <roger2> ctmjr,maco: ok did second command,then went to a a scrambled video display
[21:46]  * twan_vdp Google's a bit
[21:46] <Vashta_Nerada> worked well for me
[21:46] <roger2> cntrl alt delete doesnt work...have to power off and power on to get to recovery mode
[21:47] <m0ar> I'm having huge troubles with browsing the web, takes up to 30 seconds to load a page at first visit, when using it it's quick.. fix?
[21:47] <roger2> man this ENVY jacked everything up
[21:47] <Nexinity> Hey can somebody tell me how i get iRecovery running?
[21:47] <SeanInSeattle> Hello all.  Anyone know of a good install guide for the most recent version of eclipse (v.3.5) ?
[21:47] <vlt> m0ar: Sound like DNS problems.
[21:47] <knoppies> m0ar, do you have gnash installed? (its a FF addon)
[21:47] <m0ar> knoppies: Nope, explanation
[21:48] <m0ar> vlt: It is, it started when I installed UB 9.10. Fine in win7 and Mint 7 Gloria
[21:48] <twan_vdp> guntbert, yeah it was udp ^^
[21:48] <knoppies> m0ar,  gnash is an opensource flash player, but it hogs you PC, you idle at 50%+. uninstalling it will solve alot of problems.
[21:49] <ardor> I am running ubuntu, I can get email, but I can not send it to my gmail account. Maybe its becuase of RDNS or something?
[21:49] <roger2> anything else i should try to get back my original driver/video settings
[21:49] <vlt> m0ar: `dig ubuntu.com`
[21:49] <guntbert> twan_vdp: so you'll have to change the rule from -p tcp to -p udp and you cannot test it with telnet
[21:49] <twan_vdp> guntbert is telnet <IP> <PORT> not a good way to check wether a port is open?
[21:49] <VXxed> Hey guys.
[21:49] <roger2> is there a way to check if i completely removed ENVY from my system from the terminal?
[21:49] <VXxed> Does Phoenix BIOS have any acpi support?
[21:49] <m0ar> knoppies: Nope, not usin
[21:50] <m0ar> vlt: Que?
[21:50] <guntbert> twan_vdp: normally yes, but not with udp only with tcp
[21:50] <twan_vdp> guntbert is there a way to check wether a UDP port is opened ?
[21:50] <ctmjr> roger2: ok lets edit xorg sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf look for a line that say's driver  and change it to "vesa"
[21:50] <m0ar> vlt: Got a loot of lines..
[21:50] <vlt> m0ar: What's the output of that command?
[21:50] <m0ar> vlt: A lot
[21:50] <guntbert> twan_vdp: I use nmap
[21:50] <vlt> m0ar: Query time?
[21:51] <m0ar> vlt: 32msec
[21:51] <chsaedawg1> how do I install a driver for my graphics card? does anyone know?
[21:51] <peepsalot> how do I remove extraneous older kernel versions?
[21:51] <VXxed> guntbert: I'm back in the regular Ubuntu channel now...mainly because this looks like it's definitely more than ubuntu 9.10 vs 9.04 :P  I don't even know if I have ACPI support for my bios in linux
[21:51] <twan_vdp> guntbert my client is a windows machine
[21:51] <vlt> m0ar: hmmm
[21:51] <trism> peepsalot: they are in the various linux-image packages, dpkg -l | grep ii | grep linux-image will list them
[21:52] <guntbert> twan_vdp: if you want I can try to check - with your permission only of course :)
[21:52] <m0ar> vlt: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nss-mdns/+bug/94940
[21:52] <twan_vdp> guntbert, please do
[21:52] <m0ar> vlt: Found that, and tried the first mentioned solution with no success
[21:53] <m0ar> vlt: Any ideas?
[21:53] <m0ar> Seem like the same problem
[21:53] <mgv2> why totem get closed in 5 sec?
[21:53] <peepsalot> thanks trism
[21:53] <mgv2> why there is not wiping gui peice ?
[21:53] <xaxxon> I had networking working, but I did some stuff.. and now it doesn't.  I type sudo service networking start and it says "networking stop/waiting" and I don't know what to do next
[21:54] <xaxxon> I can't tell if it's trying to do anything or not or what's wrong
[21:55] <VXxed> Does Phoenix BIOS have any acpi support?
[21:55] <guntbert> twan_vdp: 27015/udp open|filtered halflife - looks ok to me
[21:55] <Delryk> does anyone know if there is a way i can download MegaManager for linux? or a similar program other than jdownloader?
[21:55] <m0ar> vlt: By the way, same connectiontime to IRC's, that kind of proves that it's DNS trouble
[21:56] <trism> VXxed: it does, if you have an old bios though (<2000) you will need to include acpi=force as a kernel argument on boot
[21:56] <roger2> ctmjr: it opened GNU nano 2.0.9, now what do i do?
[21:56] <twan_vdp> guntbert, thanks for your assistence. : )
[21:56] <ryguy> When I run the command 'find /grub/stage1'' in grub, I get an error telling me that the file is not found. howdo i fix this?
[21:56] <sbms> hello
[21:56] <Vashta_Nerada> maco: thanks, i'll think about how i want to proceed
[21:56] <VXxed> trism: I don't think I do, let me take a look at what version bios I'm running.
[21:57] <trism> VXxed: it would likely tell you that at boot if you did (the kernel messages)
[21:57] <blue-frog> ryguy: /boot/grub/stage1
[21:57] <roger2> how do i go on to next pages using GNU nano 2.0.9?
[21:57] <VXxed> trism: In the bios, it says version 1.05, 11/02/2005
[21:57] <guntbert> twan_vdp:  you're welcome :-)   but PLEASE be *very careful* with postfix  - it usually takes only minutes for spammers to find open mail relays - and that even could get you in trouble with your ISP
[21:57] <ryguy> blue-frog: this gives the same error
[21:57] <vlt> m0ar: Try to `dig` a domain you haven't resolved before (like www.abcdef.cn maybe)
[21:58] <ctmjr> roger2:  look under device section for the driver and change it to vesa
[21:58] <trism> VXxed: should be fine then, what exactly is the problem?
[21:58] <m0ar> vlt: Not ever visited site; 137 msec
[21:58] <guntbert> twan_vdp: and remember: you posted your IP and firewall config for the whole world to see - you might want to remove the pastebin-entries again
[21:59] <VXxed> trism: under /proc/acpi/thermal_zone there are no folders or files
[21:59] <lucifer_> hey room , i feel ubuntu is awesome been using it since 3 yrs but yesterday i did something that made me rethink
[21:59] <ctmjr> roger2: make sure it looks like this Driver     "vesa"
[21:59] <VXxed> trism: As well as under /proc/acpi/fancontrol .  The overall point is that my laptop fans aren't spinning.

[22:00] <itrebal> I've read the apple installation guides and haven't found a mention. Any sugestions?
[22:00] <twan_vdp> guntbert yes, indeed. I removed it. thanks again, ill be more carefull from now on

[22:00] <m0ar> vlt: What might it be then? :c
[22:00] <vlt> m0ar: What namesaerver does dig use? Did you choose it manually (/ets/resolv.conf) or did you get it via DHCP?
[22:00] <m0ar> vlt: DHCP
[22:00] <guntbert> twan_vdp: good to hear - Have fun
[22:00] <lucifer_> brought ubuntu crashing down
[22:01] <m0ar> vlt: Wierd since it works fine in both win7 and ubuntu 9.04
[22:01] <progesterone> question: on Ubuntu, the display of the Window font size is slighter bigger than that on Window. I notice that on the web page with Firefox. How can I fix it?
[22:01] <guntbert> !danger | lucifer_
[22:01] <jpds> lucifer_: Well, that's your problem
[22:01] <lucifer_> sorry bro but there should be soem safeguard gaainst such a thing
[22:01] <lucifer_> for end users
[22:01] <vlt> m0ar: 137ms is ok. What programs got problems?
[22:01] <ryguy> blue-frog: thank you =)
[22:01] <m0ar> vlt: Only tried firefox actually..
[22:01] <jpds> lucifer_: There is.
[22:02] <llutz> lucifer_: why? root has to know what he does
[22:02] <knoppies> lucifer_, I think the easiest way to fix it, is to reinstall ubuntu.
[22:02] <m0ar> vlt: Yeah, 20 sec connectiontime in irssi also
[22:02] <guntbert> lucifer_: you give whole new meaning to "end user"
[22:02] <m0ar> vlt: And APT
[22:02] <knoppies> lucifer_, you shouldnt just be logging in as root.
[22:02] <lucifer_> ya but for a novice logging in as root is easy around here
[22:02] <vigdavies> Anybody know where I can get help in getting the Samba server going on my Ubuntu 9.04, and to have it seen on the network and my Windows XP machine ?
[22:02] <lucifer_> i mean somekind of warning or interprettion in extreme cases
[22:02] <roger2> ctmjr: i dont know how to actually get into the section...
[22:02] <knoppies> lucifer_, youve learned your lesson, dont just log in as root, search up what the command does before you try use it, so you know what to expect.
[22:02] <llutz> lucifer_: it's his own risk to work as root
[22:03] <Wicked> lucifer_, why would you run that command as root?
[22:03] <lucifer_> i did
[22:03] <m0ar> vlt: resolv.conf is set so my router IP is DNS, wich is normal.. At least in windows :D
[22:03] <guntbert> lucifer_: please be serious
[22:03] <fcuk112> anyone have x-fi here?
[22:04] <llutz> lucifer_: deleting /root would break the system
[22:04] <llutz> would not*
[22:04] <lucifer_> well sorry i was serious, i did loose a lot of dataa and i brought it on myself
[22:04] <roger2> ctmjr: i the file open with GNU nano... at the end i see Section "Device" -skips a line- Identifier "Configured Video Device"
[22:04] <lucifer_> i mean working as root was dangerous
[22:04] <jpds> lucifer_: See: http://pthree.org/2009/01/07/rm-rf/
[22:04] <krummlauf> hi
[22:04] <krummlauf> 1509?
[22:04] <krummlauf> wow
[22:04] <llutz> lucifer_: working as root is plain stupid
[22:04] <SeanInSeattle> Hello all.  Does anyone know where new applications install to, i.e. what is their home directory in ubuntu 9.4?
[22:05] <vlt> m0ar: You could try editing resolv.conf manually. Use an open DNS server to test it
[22:05] <Wicked> lol ok hes a troll. as llutz pointed out deleting /root will not affect system stability
[22:05] <keith> hello all
[22:05] <jpds> lucifer_: And now you learnt the hard way.
[22:05] <m0ar> vlt: You'll have to guide me throgh that :3
[22:05] <lucifer_> im sorry will not effect system stbility
[22:05] <SeanInSeattle> An acquaintance of mine is saying that they normally install to /opt/   is that right?
[22:05] <Wicked> i thought he originally said he rm -rf'ed /
[22:05] <roger2> in GNU nano, how do i execute "^R" read file..what do i actually type on the keyboard
[22:05] <lucifer_> andit deletes the file system
[22:05] <thedude42> SeanInSeattle, where programs get installed is dependent on the package used to install them
[22:05] <ZoeyMarie> I'm running two different kernels (one for realtime audio production and one regular one), and my wireless adapter doesn't work in the RT one. How would I go about fixing this?
[22:05] <vigdavies> There's 1512 people and more in this chat thing. How can one get help in here for a problem ?
[22:05] <hacker07> I have a question
[22:05] <llutz> lucifer_: wrong, your command removes roots-home, nothing else
[22:06] <keith> go ahead
[22:06] <SeanInSeattle> thedude42 =>  so, there's no standard location for installing apps?
[22:06] <m0ar> hacker07: Don't ask to ask, just ask
[22:06] <roger2> vigdavies: with patience
[22:06] <Josh> vigdavies, ask you question, and if someone has any ideas, they'll answer
[22:06] <keith> ask
[22:06] <ctmjr> roger2: ok remove that line and replace it with this   Driver         "vesa" then ctrl + x then press y for yes then reboot again
[22:06] <lucifer_> yup that wat i said it wiped out the file system since its recursive
[22:06] <thedude42> SeanInSeattle, typically the installation of a package involves copying files to many locations, including /etc, /usr, /var, ...etc
[22:06] <vigdavies> ok, I'll wait with patience. Thanks for responding there roger2
[22:06] <hacker07> how do you do triple monitor via two computers
[22:06] <llutz> lucifer_: wrong
[22:06] <jpds> lucifer_: It only delted the stuff in /root
[22:06] <m0ar> hacker07: Define
[22:06] <Josh> hacker07, KVM with an extra monitor for show?
[22:06] <jpds> lucifer_: It did NOT delete your running system.
[22:06] <lucifer_> well it did stop access to terminal , so effectively it did do something like that
[22:07] <hacker07> how can I take my computer running ubuntu and another and make the other computer run as a second monitor
[22:07] <vlt> m0ar: Just edit resolv.conf and replace the IP behind "nameserver" by another one (dnsserverlist.org)
[22:07] <vlt> m0ar: *from dnsserverlist.org for example
[22:07] <llutz> lucifer_: it is clear what that command does, and it's definetly not deleting the filesystem. stop trolling please
[22:07] <VXxed> How do I pause the bootup sequence and see what's happening command-line wise?
[22:08] <Wicked> lucifer_, /root is not equal to /
[22:08] <ZoeyMarie> How can I see all the kernels that are installed?
[22:08] <Josh> hacker07, I've still no idea what you mean, I'm assuming you want to make one of your current desktop monitors display the screen from another remote computer?
[22:08] <Wicked> lucifer_, /root is the root users $HOME
[22:08] <SeanInSeattle> thedude42 =>  So, in windows there's a location where the majority (but most of the time not all) of the application-related files (config, resource, executables, help, etc) live.  For example, %ProgramFiles%\InstalledAppDirectory
[22:08] <m0ar> vlt: And that will work even tho my router want to give me one?
[22:08] <SeanInSeattle> thedude42 =>  Is there a similar concept in ubuntu?
[22:08] <phix> Morning
[22:08] <hacker07> no I would like to run one computer and use the other computer to run a networked monitor
[22:09] <kaptainkranium> Could someone help me out? Firefox is running very slowly on Ubuntu, but my speed is fine on vista, and I can't figure out why
[22:09] <Cryptic_Donkey> !flash
[22:09] <roger2> ctmjr: ok rebooted...i still get the nice ubuntu progress logo..then get scrambled display once it tries to go into desktop
[22:09] <m0ar> vlt: YAY THIS IS WORKEEEN
[22:09] <thedude42> SeanInSeattle, right, in windows the convention is to place things in programFiles, but the convention in unix/unix-like systems is to place configuration type files in /etc, place the binaries and executables in /usr, and place scratch/cache/database type files in /var
[22:10] <roger2> ctmjr: you want to me just reinstall ubuntu?
[22:10] <ichat> SeanInSeattle:  - thats not entirely true
[22:10] <krummlauf> is this the largest channel on freenode?
[22:10]  * m0ar thanks vlt
[22:10] <jpds> krummlauf: yes.
[22:10] <krummlauf> awesome
[22:10] <thedude42> SeanInSeattle, so you need to be more specific with regard to the things you are looking for.... but if you know the package you installed you can always query the package for where things went
[22:11] <guntbert> !filesystem | SeanInSeattle
[22:11] <ZoeyMarie> How do I get my wireless adapter to work in my other Kernel?
[22:11] <RobLikesBrunch> Hello, quick problem:
[22:11] <ichat> in current win versions  app settings should either  be in the rigistry or in   %userprofiles%\appsdata\$appname
[22:11] <lucifer_> awesome response guys thanks for your trolling help
[22:11] <RobLikesBrunch> I got the following error: "Error: Depdendency is not satisfiable: network-manager (>=0.7__svn20080928) anyone know what this mean?
[22:12] <RobLikesBrunch> means*
[22:12] <guntbert> ichat: how is that relevant *here*?
[22:12] <ichat> guntbert -  it was a reply... to an untrue steatement
[22:12] <FuRom> Has anyone been able to either A) make itunes work on ubuntu or B) sync the ipod touch 3g with ubuntu? I've been frustrated at this for the past month.... and windows has completely become incapable of functioning for me so I have to switch to ubuntu completely.
[22:13] <RobLikesBrunch> How how I install network-manager again if I deleted it...?
[22:13] <SeanInSeattle> thedude42=>  So, I won't be messing things up if I just leave the unpacked application (in this case, Eclipse 3.5) in its own directory here:  /home/eclipse/  ?
[22:13] <Delryk> hey everyone i have a question. i am running ubuntu in VM Ware to see if i like it before removing windows vista. so far so good. however i cat locate my 1 TB external drive. any suggestions ?
[22:13] <Delryk> cant*
[22:13] <RobLikesBrunch> No one has any ideas how I can reinstall network-manager?
[22:14] <epaphus> Hello, in the main ubuntu repository what is the latest version served to users for firefox??
[22:14] <erUSUL> Delryk: that seems like something you should configure in the VM software you are using ?
[22:14] <SeanInSeattle> RobLikesBrunch =>  What's the version of network mgr that you're trying to install?
[22:14] <guntbert> Delryk: you'll have to connect the usb device to the VM
[22:14] <erUSUL> epaphus: for jaunty ?
[22:14] <ichat> guntbert - whenever you explain anything about whatever it is you want to tell people get the facts straight ...  if you dont... people end up  fucking things up realy badd...  because they misunderstand you and give the wrong advice

[22:15] <MacGyverNL> Is the 9.10 release wednesday or thursday UTC +1?
[22:15] <erUSUL> epaphus: for 9.04 is 3.0.x and there is 3.5 aviable as shiretoko in 8.10 is 3.0.x afaik
[22:16] <FuRom> trism: thank you

[22:16] <ichat> guntbert... read... and try to read...  its not addrest as a flame to you or anyone...
[22:16] <epaphus> erUSUL, what is shitetoko?
[22:16] <epaphus> shiretoko
[22:16] <Delryk> erUSL, guntbert: i plan to DBAN my hard drive and install ubuntu only. when i am running ubuntu natively will it recognize my 1TB ?
[22:16] <kaptainkranium> Can someone help me out? My Internet is running extremely slow in ubuntu, but at normal speed in Vista.
[22:16] <roger2> what is DBAN?
[22:16] <MacGyverNL> jpds: It's not exactly a support question, is it? ;) Thanks, though.
[22:16] <ichat> its just an explanation why i corrected it
[22:16] <Delryk> roger2. its the only way to truely erase a hdd. google ATA Secure Erase
[22:16] <trism> epaphus: Shiretoko is what firefox 3.5 is called in jaunty
[22:17] <erUSUL> epaphus: firefox 3.5
[22:17] <FuRom> trism: but there is a key problem with the information that was just given to me... I don't own a legit copy of windows nor do I ever want to deal with microsoft's failed genius....
[22:17] <erUSUL> !ff35 | epaphus
[22:17] <roger2> ok
[22:17] <guntbert> Delryk: it will, but start trying with a live CD to be sure and safe
[22:17] <Delryk> ok thanks guntbert
[22:18] <Delryk> once ubuntu 9.10 is released i will be installing it then
[22:18] <trism> FuRom: I can understand that. According to the wine appdb, the last version of itunes that worked was 7. As for syncing with other apps, the only solutions I have seen are with jailbroken devices
[22:18] <FuRom> !RockBox | FuRom
[22:18] <ctmjr> roger2: that's a decision you need to make you did say it was nvidia right?
[22:18] <guntbert> Delryk: but try the live CD first!
[22:18] <nutterpc> Delryk, i've transitioned to ubuntu only on my laptop, it runs much better than windows 7 did
[22:19] <roger2> ctmjr: ive proceeded with the reinstall... i was trying to better reconfigure this old presario latop..it had a ATI Rage mobility M3 video card..i installed envy and it messed everything up
[22:19] <nutterpc> and all my hardware works too, yes it will require a bit of work to do so for all of your hardware, but it is worth it in the end
[22:20] <HelpMe> hello anybody who can help
[22:20] <nevets04> HelpMe, I just got here, what was your question?
[22:21] <ctmjr> roger2: ok if your reinstalling then i hope it works out for you, and i guess you learned your lesson on envy
[22:21] <trism> FuRom: I take it back, 8.2 seems to work, if you want to try that
[22:21] <trism> FuRom: with wine that is
[22:21] <trism> FuRom: I haven't tried it myself, just info from wine appdb
[22:23] <trism> FuRom: although they list connecting to the ipod touch as one of the things not working, so maybe not as helpful *shrugs*
[22:23] <Evito> im about to start studying basic C++, someone suggest a compiler etc tools i need?
[22:23] <jpds> Evito: g++ ?
[22:24] <Evito> C++
[22:24] <Billiard> Evito: i use codeblocks for an ide
[22:24] <Evito> dont assume i know anything about coding at this point
[22:24] <jpds> Evito: g++ is the GNU C++ compiler.
[22:24] <thedude42> Evito, g++ is the compile/build tool
[22:24] <Evito> ah ok
[22:24] <Evito> very big thanks
[22:24] <jpds> Evito: build-essential should install everything you need to build things.
[22:24] <Evito> i hope its easy enough to setup for learning purposes?
[22:25] <thedude42> Evito, there is plenty of documentation for beginners to expert
[22:25] <Evito> i got several tutorials as pdf now
[22:25] <Evito> just wanted some tip on compiler to use
[22:25] <Evito> and thats what i got, many thanks
[22:26] <VXxed> Hye guys?
[22:27] <VXxed> How do I ACTUALLY report a bug on launchpad?
[22:27] <VXxed> Because it keeps redirecting me to the "how to report a bug" page no matter what
[22:27] <VXxed> So I can't..do anything
[22:27] <jpds> VXxed: Try #launchpad.
[22:27] <trism> !bugs | VXxed
[22:28] <VXxed> My bug report is about acpi not loading right.
[22:28] <VXxed> So it's not about a single package
[22:28] <VXxed> And I can't seem to get much help about it
[22:29] <SeanInSeattle> Anyone know of a good tutorial on chmod?  I'm trying to set permissions on a few directories, and its been a while since I've tried to use it.
[22:29] <SeanInSeattle> !chmod
[22:29] <thedude42> SeanInSeattle, man chmod will get you the basics, otherwise google for chmod howto
[22:30] <m0ar> The fans on my laptop are always at 100% speed, how to set them to be lowered by temp?
[22:30] <lucifer_> @m0ar: i think thats ssomething to do with bios
[22:32] <Evito> Ok someone give the noob a private chat as to how to get myself the G++ compiler installed and ready to use
[22:32] <m0ar> When I maximize anything playing with Flash it appears on my laptop screen, no my other one that is set as Main.. Fix?
[22:32] <Billiard> Evito: install build-essential
[22:32] <jrood> grub2 isn't working, how can I use my ubuntu live cd to go back to grub 1
[22:32] <scunizi> Evito: sudo apt-get install build-essential  .. will install all you need typically
[22:32] <Evito> would have imagined it would be install g++ heheh
[22:33] <kaptainkranium> Can someone assist me? my wireless is extremely slow in ubuntu but not vista
[22:33] <jpds> Evito: It does.
[22:33] <scunizi> Evito: build-essential pulls in a number of other things needed
[22:33] <buu> Oh god
[22:33] <scunizi> part 2
[22:34] <kaptainkranium> aaanyone?
[22:34] <buu> Is there some kind of process running on a fairly standard ubuntu install that would interfere with me setting the ip for an interface manually?
[22:34] <jrood> anyone know how to revert back to grub from grub2 with a ubuntu live cd?
[22:34] <OliverK> kaptainkranium: update your drivers if you can
[22:34] <Jordan_U> buu: Network-manager
[22:34] <kaptainkranium> OliverK: How do I go about doing that?
[22:34] <OliverK> that i do not know
[22:34] <buu> Jordan_U: ah
[22:35] <scunizi> SeanInSeattle: what are you trying to change the permissions of?  sometimes it's more beneficial to become a member of the group instead.. line apache2.. the group name is www-data
[22:35] <OliverK> i don't normally use ubuntu :D
[22:35] <Jordan_U> buu: You can either disable / remove it or just set up a static ip from network manager
[22:35] <buu> Jordan_U: I stopped it. All is now well.
[22:35] <SeanInSeattle> scunizi =>  I'm trying to give rwx permissions to a specific user, when I'm logged in as root.
[22:36] <buu> Thanks.
[22:36] <scunizi> SeanInSeattle: for files in your /home? or someplace in root?
[22:37] <SeanInSeattle> scunizi =>  sorry, I meant to say that I'm trying to assign rwx permissions on the /home/ directory itself, so that the user can create directories, files, etc on that leve.
[22:37] <SeanInSeattle> level*
[22:37] <Paulo39> hi, a friend of mine have bought Asus Eee PC 1005 HA-H and installed ubuntu. But he is not catching wireless net, his wireless board is atheros ar9285, can you help me? he is a newbie in linux (and i am almost one too)
[22:37] <scunizi> SeanInSeattle: and the /home is a different users /home?
[22:38] <Helios> hello all i have ubuntu on my box
[22:38] <SeanInSeattle> scunizi:  it is the directory in which all users have their home
[22:38] <Helios> i cant install unrar
[22:38] <Billiard> Helios: what is the error?
[22:38] <jpds> Helios: Have you enabled the multiverse respository in System -> Admin -> Software Sources?
[22:39] <Helios> Package unrar is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[22:39] <Helios> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[22:39] <Helios> is only available from another source
[22:39] <Helios> E: Package unrar has no installation candidate
[22:39] <FloodBot3> Helios: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:39] <SeanInSeattle> basically, I'm the only user on my laptop, and its a dev box, so I want the ability to create files/directories anywhere below /home/ without have to sudo / su
[22:39] <Jordan_U> Paulo39: What version of Ubuntu?
[22:39] <Helios> jpds i have it in console mode
[22:39] <jpds> Helios: Do what I said, and try again.
[22:39] <Paulo39> 9.04
[22:39] <scunizi> SeanInSeattle: so.. say Bill has a home of /home/bill .. you want to give bill permissions to add files/directories to /home and keep his permissions in /home/bill  right?
[22:39] <Jordan_U> Paulo39: Try installing linux-backports-modules-jaunty
[22:40] <Helios> jpds i dont have it on Xwindows :( i am using it from console
[22:40] <SeanInSeattle> scunizi =>  That's about right.  I want Bill to be able to create directories and files below /home/, as well as being able to access all of his normal files in /home/bill/
[22:40] <jpds> Helios: Oh, then edit /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment (remove the #) from the line with multiverse in it.
[22:40] <llutz> Helios: xwindow, no "s" ;)
[22:40] <Helios> jpds i dont have any line with multiverse on my sources.list
[22:41] <jet_> hello, anybody could help me to setup netatalk ?
[22:41] <jpds> Helios: Then add something like: deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic multiverse
[22:41] <Jordan_U> Helios: "sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe"
[22:41] <Paulo39> Jordan_U, but, if he is without net, how can he do that?
[22:41] <SeanInSeattle> So, I'm logged in as root, and I want to give bill his permissions on the home directory as I've previously described.  I use what command?
[22:42] <Helios> it has only jaunty inside
[22:42] <Jordan_U> Paulo39: Connect wired, or grab the package on another machine, or install karmic when it comes out in a few days and it should work out of the box
[22:42] <scunizi> SeanInSeattle: well.. below /home/bill is /home and owned by root.. below /home is definitely owned by root.. if you change the permissions there then bill will have access to everyone's /home/<username> directories and below.. why do you want to create arbituary files and directories there?
[22:42] <jpds> Helios: Oh, change the line as necessary.
[22:42] <Paulo39> Jordan_U, ok
[22:42] <Helios> jpds ?
[22:42] <jpds> Helios: so instead of karmic, jaunty, and instead of gb.archive, your local mirror.
[22:43] <jamescarr> how can I make an export command I run  from the commandline permanent?
[22:43] <Lint01> SeanInSeattle, Linux permission system is from 70s, totally obsolete
[22:43] <SeanInSeattle> Ah, well, that's the difference between administrating a server, and being the owner and primary user of a laptop.  ;)
[22:43] <trism> jamescarr: add it to ~/.bashrc
[22:43] <llutz> scunizi: homes should be user:usergrp 750, so nobody else will write there
[22:44] <syrius> why is ubuntu not secure
[22:44] <jpds> syrius: It is.
[22:44] <syrius> I didn't do any tweaking
[22:44] <syrius> and someone hacked my machine
[22:44] <syrius> he knows that I don't have a swap parition
[22:44] <scunizi> SeanInSeattle: I disagree with Lint01 .. he sounds like a recent windows user.  when you admin a server then you change things only as root.. either by using sudo or logging in as root with sudo -i.. Personally I wouldn't change the permissioins
[22:44] <roger2> hello,whats the command to show me what sound card hardware i have?
[22:44] <kaptainkranium> Can someone help me figure out why my wireless is running so slow in ubuntu?
[22:45] <scunizi> SeanInSeattle: but if you want check out what llutz said a few lines above.
[22:45] <jpds> syrius: Well, how do you think he get in?
[22:45] <syrius> dunno
[22:45] <jpds> syrius: Find out then, and fix the problem. :)
[22:45] <lstarnes> syrius: what proof do you have that he cracked your machine?
[22:46] <syrius> because he knows I don't have a swap partition
[22:46] <m0ar> My flashplayer maximizes movies on the wrong screen. The screen with Firefox IS main and active.. How come?
[22:46] <lstarnes> syrius: couldn't he have just made a lucky guess that you didn't have one?
[22:46] <jpds> syrius: There's a 50% chance he's right about that in any case.
[22:46] <Billiard> roger2: lspci, maybe
[22:46] <SeanInSeattle> Thanks scunizi / llutz.  I see both perspectives.   I appreciate your time.
[22:47] <Helios> jpds it works fine now :) can you tell me how i can install that  libstdc++.so.5 ?
[22:47] <DarwinSurvivor> how can i find out which package is keeping another one back from updating?
[22:48] <lstarnes> Helios: sudo apt-get install libstdc++5
[22:48] <scunizi> Helios: you're obviously not "The Helios" unless there's a difference in the spelling..
[22:48] <roger2> thanks will try
[22:48] <DarwinSurvivor> my server has been giving me "the following packages have been kept back: linux-image-server linux-restricted-modules-server linux-server" for about a month now
[22:48] <jpds> Helios: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=libstdc%2B%2B.so.5&mode=exactfilename&suite=jaunty&arch=any
[22:48] <Billiard> Darwin: apt-get install linux-server
[22:48] <lstarnes> DarwinSurvivor: try sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[22:49] <DarwinSurvivor> lstarnes: so it's just saying it's kept back from upgrading to karmic? (currently running jaunty)
[22:49] <roger2> is there a "scandisk" ubuntu gui version?
[22:49] <scunizi> Helios: just in case you've never heard of him.. :) (other than the greek reference) http://linuxlock.blogspot.com/2008/12/linux-stop-holding-our-kids-back.html
[22:49] <rob0917> waiting for 9.10 is killing me
[22:49] <Potatohead> Syrius you could try using a firewall to give yourself a little extra comfort or read up on Apparmor here is one such firewall http://www.getdeb.net/app/gufw
[22:49] <lstarnes> DarwinSurvivor: dist-upgrade does not upgrade to the next distro version
[22:49] <erUSUL> roger2: gparted an check filesystems
[22:49] <jpds> rob0917: So... install the release candidate?
[22:50] <lstarnes> DarwinSurvivor: it updates all the installed packages to the newest version for your current version's repos
[22:50] <rob0917> cool thanks
[22:50] <trism> DarwinSurvivor: apt-get upgrade will only update currently install packages, dist-upgrade will upgrade to new packages (or tries to)
[22:50] <syrius> I use firewall Potatohead
[22:50] <syrius> I am also behind a router
[22:50] <roger2> erUSUL: what name do I use to search in synaptics
[22:50] <DarwinSurvivor> trism: why would new packages (that are not installed) need to be updated?
[22:50] <DevelopmentStage> What's the easiest way to configure start-up services on Ubuntu?  Rcconf no longer works in Karmic.
[22:50] <erUSUL> roger2: gparted
[22:50] <lstarnes> DarwinSurvivor: full-upgrade is the actual name for it.  dist-upgrade is an alias
[22:50] <Evito> oh man, why isnt there a command -noob for gcc haha
[22:50] <trism> DarwinSurvivor: the new kernel is considered a new package
[22:51] <roger2> gracias
[22:51] <Sahkolihaa> Would anyone know why Rhythmbox, Banshee and Exhaile all have a delay when changing the volume? I'm on an Audigy 2 ZS.
[22:51] <jpds> Potatohead: Apparmor is not a firewall.
[22:51] <DarwinSurvivor> trism: ah, i thought the kernel would just upgrade like a regular package :P
[22:51] <jpds> Evito: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=392330
[22:51] <Anathema> Sahkolihaa: as an uneducated guess I'd say the buffered music isn't having it's volume adjusted, but I really have no idea
[22:51] <Potatohead> jpds I know but you can control apps with it, which is what can expose you to the world
[22:52] <Potatohead> Ports thatis
[22:52] <Evito> thanks a load again jpds!!
[22:52] <jpds> syrius: Do you have any proof that he actually got into your system?
[22:52] <jpds> Evito: No problem.
[22:52] <scunizi> Evito: not really sure about this.. but write the code in nano or gedit then run make.. ./configure .. make install or something like that.. I don't code but have attempted to compile occationally.. other's can shed more light on it.
[22:52] <Sahkolihaa> Anathema: It does sound like a buffer problem but I don't know where to change the buffer. I think they all use gstreamer.
[22:52] <scunizi> guess they have.. while I was typing. :)
[22:52] <Evelina> I want to bypass some sites limitation of server calls. How do I do it? Using proxy servers or what?
[22:52] <DevelopmentStage> Anyone know how to configure startup services?  I used to use rcconf but it dont work in Karmic..What other ways are there?
[22:53] <carpenike> hi all. I'm not able to pickup anything plugged into my Via VT8251 southbridge chipset's SATA ports inside Mythbuntu 9.10.
[22:53] <Evelina> I'm going to call the servers by using lynx or wgat.
[22:53] <m0ar> How to install KDE 4.3.2 at Ubuntu 9.10?
[22:53] <Evelina> *wget
[22:53] <Potatohead> I would have to say that he did a lucky guess on you not having a swap unless he has more I wouldn't even think about it.
[22:53] <llutz> DevelopmentStage: #ubuntu+1 for karmic
[22:53] <lstarnes> DarwinSurvivor: you could try bum, but this channel doesn't support karmic yet.  join #ubuntu+1
[22:53] <carpenike> Trying to detect a DVD drive nowand it's not finding anything.
[22:53] <jpds> m0ar: Install kubuntu-desktop
[22:53] <syrius> no jpds
[22:53] <lstarnes> m0ar: #ubuntu+1 is the channel for karmic
[22:53] <m0ar> jpds: No adding repos any more? :o
[22:53] <Billiard> DevelopmentStage: update-rc.d  ?
[22:53] <m0ar> lstarnes: Thanks
[22:53] <DarwinSurvivor> lstarnes: i'm not running karmic, still on jaunty
[22:53] <tonyyarusso> Hmm, what is the name of the service nautilus uses to 'watch' files for changes?
[22:53] <carpenike> 00:0f.0 IDE interface: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8251 AHCI/SATA 4-Port Controller
[22:53] <lstarnes> DarwinSurvivor: sorry, wrong person
[22:53] <DarwinSurvivor> lstarnes: no problem
[22:54] <m0ar> jpds: Sure about that?
[22:54] <erUSUL> tonyyarusso: is not a service afaik it uses inotify (a kernel API)
[22:54] <jpds> m0ar: Not really, I use GNOME. ;)
[22:54] <Hexxeh> Hey
[22:54] <m0ar> jpds: Never been like that anyways
[22:54] <tonyyarusso> erUSUL: ah, excellent.  Do you know anything about making other programs use it?
[22:54] <Hexxeh> I've got a VPS I've ordered, and it's running Ubuntu 8.04, but I'm not given root. Is there any way to find out what kind of chunk of the CPU I have?
[22:55] <tonyyarusso> Hexxeh: err, if you don't have root, it's not a VPS.
[22:55] <jpds> Hexxeh: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[22:55] <Hexxeh> it is tonyyarusso, i'm just not given the root password
[22:55] <comicinker> how can I make pulseaudio run on a server?
[22:56] <Hexxeh> jpds: that tells me the cpu on the host box, is there any way to find out how much cpu time i'm given?
[22:56] <jorik> Hexxeh: look in your contract
[22:56] <Hexxeh> not specified. it's a seedbox i've been given and they've basically said as long as you don't ask us, we don't care what you do with it
[22:57] <Hexxeh> now i don't care for torrenting, so i'm trying to see what i can do with it
[22:57] <erUSUL> tonyyarusso: you have to use tha api directly and i think there is a couple of binaries to use it from scripts
[22:57] <HBX> whats the channel for karmic
[22:57] <Hexxeh> but it's only a 512mb ram instance, and there's a bunch of stuff running on it like transmission/mysql i don't need and don't seem to be able to kill
[22:57] <eric1> Can anyone help with a question about video display driver setup?
[22:57] <lstarnes> HBX: #ubuntu+1
[22:57] <erUSUL> tonyyarusso: inotifywatch and inotifywait
[22:57] <HBX> thanks
[22:57] <tonyyarusso> erUSUL: Well that's a start, thanks
[22:58] <scunizi> eric1: ask and someone will answer
[22:58] <erUSUL> tonyyarusso: i spect that most scripting langs have wrapper for it too
[22:58] <eric1> Is this a sign something is broken:
[22:58] <erUSUL> tonyyarusso: man 7 inotify

[22:59] <blaz2> Hi! Can you help, I cannot deactivate password authentication for 'sudo' in Karmic, suspecting a bug
[22:59] <tonyyarusso> erUSUL: Yeah, looks like there's a python library at least.
[22:59] <KB1JWQ> blaz2: man sudo
[22:59] <KB1JWQ> You need to specify NOPASSWD blaz2
[22:59] <rkvirani> Any good howtos on perserving batterylife in ubuntu?  Or should I just stick with windows for good battery life?
[22:59] <scunizi> eric1: you have a sis card.. in the 661/741/760 series.. google "sis chrome ubuntu" and see what comes up.. sis is notoriously a pain

[23:00] <twan_vdp> can anyone tell me how to "unbind" a port, i have been testing an application on a perticular port but now it says its in use, i tried to ill the process but it didnt work
[23:00] <blaz2> KB1JWQ: i did what /etc/sudoers file told me to
[23:01] <Billiard> blaz2: pastebin your sudoers
[23:01] <a7p> twan_vdp: there is no specific "unbinding" - there is stille something blocking the port.
[23:01] <a7p> may be your app is still running (at least partitally)
[23:01] <carpenike> where is the grub boot parameters in ubuntu?
[23:01] <blaz2> Billiard: ok, just a minute...
[23:01] <carpenike> I don't see it inside /boot/grub/...
[23:01] <ikonia> carpenike: in your menu.lst grub options
[23:01] <KB1JWQ> blaz2: Ignore what the file says, follow the man page.
[23:01] <roger2> i cant find gparted in synaptic
[23:01] <carbm2> twan_vdp, "sudo killall -9 APPNAME"  should kill it for sure.
[23:01] <erUSUL> carpenike: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[23:02] <roger2> any other GUI scandisk utility
[23:02] <KB1JWQ> !gparted
[23:02] <oplanetamichelin> cc
[23:02] <carpenike> ikonia: is it inside the /boot/grub directory?
[23:02] <ikonia> carpenike: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[23:02] <carpenike> ikonia: what if i don't have that file?
[23:02] <erUSUL> carpenike: or are you using grub2 (karmic) ?
[23:02] <carpenike> grub2
[23:02] <carpenike> 9.10.
[23:03] <rkvirani> erUSUL: thanks much, do you think linux can get as efficient as windows when it comes to battery life?
[23:03] <ikonia> carpenike: then you need #ubuntu+1 for 9.10 support
[23:03] <erUSUL> carpenike: ask in #ubuntu+1 --> /etc/default/grub /etc/grub.d/
[23:03] <carpenike> k thx

[23:04] <rednammoc> hey guys. i installed ubuntu server 2.6.24-16, made sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install encfs. After that i wanted to mount my encrypted fs. after "encfs /media/mount-dir ~/mount-point" he wants me to create a new encrypted volume ? does somebody knows whats going on ?
[23:05] <e3co> scunizi:  yes they are on one reciever
[23:05] <scunizi> e3co: but you might need to re-pair them to the receiver
[23:05] <existed> is any1 here east ladder?
[23:05] <e3co> scunizi:  did that
[23:05] <Billiard> rednammoc: you are trying to mount /media/mount-dir ?
[23:05] <mikejet> how do you connect to the rs232 port, anyway? tip?
[23:06] <rednammoc> Billiard: yep
[23:06] <Helios> i need when my box start up to run authomaticaly from /opt/jrun4/bin/ ./jrun connextalk
[23:06] <erUSUL> mikejet: with minicom ?
[23:06] <erUSUL> Helios: call it from /etc/rc.local
[23:06] <Billiard> rednammoc: ive never used encfs, but dont you need to mount a device not a directory?
[23:07] <e3co> erUSUL:  is that where boot time stuff loads?
[23:07] <Helios> guys where i can write a script to run progrems on start
[23:07] <Helios> i need when my box start up to run authomaticaly from /opt/jrun4/bin/ ./jrun connextalk
[23:07] <erUSUL> e3co: is the last script the boot process run used for all stuff quick and dirty or that just do not fit anywhere else
[23:08] <erUSUL> Helios: already told you how
[23:08] <rednammoc> Billiard: nope. i need to mount a folder. at my home pc it works. do you know how to check the version of the app. probably there's a version-mismatch
[23:08] <dumont> will i be able to compile rar package for jaunty or karmic with multithreading support onto my hardy ubuntu OS?
[23:08] <blaz2> Billiard: here's my /etc/sudoers: http://pastebin.com/m7367a6e0  sorry for delay it was on another machine
[23:08] <Helios> erUSUL how m8? where is that script
[23:08] <e3co> erUSUL:  thans
[23:08] <erUSUL> Helios: here /etc/rc.local
[23:09] <Billiard> blaz2: are you a member of the sudo group?
[23:09] <erUSUL> Helios: put a line like this "/opt/jrun4/bin/jrun connextalk" before the "Cexit 0" line
[23:09] <ikonia> the sudo group is the admin group
[23:09] <erUSUL> Helios: keep in mind that it will run as root
[23:10] <blaz2> Billiard: yes I see 'sudo' in the output of 'groups'
[23:10] <trism> blaz2: there is a thread about this on the ubuntu forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1284328
[23:10] <erUSUL> Helios: put a line like this "/opt/jrun4/bin/jrun connextalk" before the "exit 0" line; sorry for the typo
[23:11] <trapper-> how can i dig deeper to find out why im getting such terrible samba read speeds over wifi 150KB/s. (write speed is fine and, wired is fine both ways) Is there an error log i should be checking or something i can capture in wireshark?
[23:11] <Deihmos> when the official 9.10 is released would i have to reinstall?
[23:11] <trism> blaz2: there is a post at the bottom of the second page that lists a possible solution
[23:11] <erUSUL> !final | Deihmos
[23:12] <erUSUL> Deihmos: if you are in jaunty you can upgrade without reinstalling
[23:12] <carbm2> Anybody know if there is a program that would let me SNAP windows just like the new Windows 7 feature shown on the commercials?  I did a quick search for "snap" in Ubuntu Software Center. Just curious if anybody had a quick answer.
[23:12] <mQQsh> hey.. im trying to run an .exe file thats on my desktop with wine using terminal.  How can I locate the desktop in wine?  I tried cd Desktop but it keep giving me an error saying no such file or directory.
[23:12] <blaz2> trism: thanks! i'll try that, but nevertheless if %sudo ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL doesn't work then there is something wrong..
[23:13] <Deihmos> i missed that. when the official 9.10 is released would i have to reinstall
[23:13] <mQQsh> I mean how can i locate the desktop in terminal
[23:13] <midnight_tiger> Is anyone able to offer some advice as to how to get my sound working? =)
[23:13] <erUSUL> carbm2: what is snap? compiz can do a lot of things with windows
[23:13] <trism> blaz2: yeah it is likely either a bug or they disabled it on purpose, because it isn't just you
[23:13] <midnight_tiger> I've tried everything, just doesn't want to work
[23:13] <erUSUL> mQQsh: cd ~/Desktop
[23:13] <scunizi> mQQsh: cd ~/Desktop/
[23:14] <Billiard> blaz2: try %sudo  ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
[23:14] <blaz2> Billiard: tried, didn't work either
[23:14] <mQQsh> awesome thanks guys
[23:14] <Bookman> I'm having a problem with Evolution and sending mail.  I have the smtp information entered correctly but it just times out when trying to send mail.
[23:14] <scunizi> Bookman: then you don't have it set correctly.. is this for google?
[23:15] <Helios> erUSUL working now thanks m8 you are great
[23:15] <Helios> how i can see what proccess running on my box :?
[23:15] <erUSUL> Helios: no problem
[23:15] <Bookman> No, Rogers.  I just confirmed all settings with their tech support.
[23:15] <erUSUL> Helios: ps ef | less
[23:15] <Helios> erUSUL i mean services
[23:15] <scunizi> Bookman: port numbers etc?..
[23:15] <Helios> is the same command for services?
[23:15] <jar> Anyone else have an issue on netboox remix where gnome-terminal always opens in / rather than ~ ?
[23:15] <jar> 9.10
[23:16] <Bookman> scunizi, I see no place in Evolution to specify a port number
[23:16] <scunizi> #ubuntu+1 for 9.10 support jar
[23:16] <jar> scunizi, thanks
[23:16] <ariqz> something in Ubuntu uses my connection for updates or god knows what when I don't want it to. It chokes out my dialup connection and fucks up what I'm doing. How the hell do I turn off auto updates or whatever retarded feature this is?
[23:16] <erUSUL> Helios: no easy way to tell services from other long running processes
[23:17] <Helios> erUSUL so i cant see what services running on my box?
[23:17] <trism> Helios: maybe service --status-all
[23:17] <trism> Helios: output doesn't seem terribly helpful though
[23:18] <Powersource> anyone know a drawing program except gimp, that is more like ms paint?
[23:18] <erUSUL> Helios: you can see all the processes all the processes that run under any user or as your user or the ones that are sleeping vs the ones that are running. ps can output a lot of info
[23:18] <blaz2> trism: thanks! amazingly it works with %"myusergroup" ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL   thanks guys!
[23:18] <scunizi> Bookman: sorry.. I was checking mine to see .. and low and behold.. no port numbers.. but I didn't tic the secured login option.. you might try thunderbird..
[23:18] <trapper-> anyone know how to pick up wifi errors in wireshark?
[23:19] <GuyS> I have Januty with latest updates on an HP 1222nr Pavilion laptop -- today on resume from suspend my window borders/decorations did not draw. I created a new test user and window decorations DID draw. I have reinstalled all gnome/metacity packages; I have enabled compiz/emarald. Right now, I can get the window decorations/border enbaled by either typing 'metacity --replace' or 'compiz --replace' in a terminal session, but after logging out,
[23:19] <GuyS> the change is not persistant and I have to redo the '--replace' commands. Seems something is corrupted, but I don't know what needs to be removed to get things back to normal.
[23:19] <erUSUL> Powersource: xpaint or you need something more profesional? for kids tuxpaint is great
[23:19] <Helios> erUSUL is any command to show me how memory and RAM used ?
[23:19] <Powersource> erUSUL, something between gimp and ms paint
[23:20] <erUSUL> Helios: free -m
[23:20] <Billiard> Helios: free
[23:20] <scunizi> Bookman: thunderbird with the sunbird option or "lightening" will give you email, calendar, & tasks
[23:20] <thijs_> hey there.
[23:20] <ariqz> something in Ubuntu uses my connection for updates or god knows what when I don't want it to. It chokes out my dialup connection and fucks up what I'm doing. How the hell do I turn off auto updates or whatever retarded feature this is?
[23:20] <rednammoc> Hi guys. Does somebody has any idea how to check the version of an installed app?
[23:20] <erUSUL> Powersource: dunno...
[23:20] <erUSUL> !version | rednammoc
[23:20] <llutz> rednammoc: apt-cache policy package
[23:21] <erUSUL> !language | ariqz
[23:21] <thedude42> GuyS did this happen after an update, or out of the blue?  because there were just 2 decent sized update groups, including a kernel update, in the last week
[23:21] <Helios> erUSUL and for my Proccessor?
[23:21] <Bookman> scunizi, It used to work just fine....not sure exactly what went wrong.  I don't think just switching mail programs is the right thing to do..
[23:21] <thijs_> I've did a fresh install of ubuntu 8.04 desktop on my laptop, however i can't connect to the internet with a wired cable. Lspci tells me there is a configured ethernet controller
[23:21] <erUSUL> Helios: processor model ? less /proc/cpuinfo
[23:21] <Jordan_U> thijs_: Are you using DHCP?
[23:21] <scunizi> Bookman: disable the account and recreate it again as a secondary
[23:22] <thijs_> Jordan_U, it's a fresh install, so yes
[23:22] <erUSUL> Helios: system>admin>system monitor is a good app too
[23:22] <Helios> ok
[23:22] <Helios> thanks
[23:22] <ariqz> !annoy_feature | erUSUL
[23:22] <VXxed> Question
[23:22] <Jordan_U> thijs_: I meant do you have a DHCP server on your network
[23:22] <VXxed> My fans don't work, and I'm not sure if the ACPI is loading properly
[23:22] <GuyS> thedude42: It happened post upgrade. Just this afternoon in fact. I did a suspend to go to church, and on resume about 3 hours later, not window decorations
[23:22] <LjL> ariqz: what are you trying to achieve with the bot?
[23:23] <thijs_> Yes, I have just used the cable on this laptop to test it, the other laptop is next to me, but it won't connect
[23:23] <ariqz> a conversation
[23:23] <GuyS> thedude42: I did the updates earlier in the week.
[23:23] <Powersource> erUSUL, though tuxpaint may just be perfect for my little brother
[23:23] <LjL> ariqz: well, it's a bot, you can't have a conversation with it. also, please use a private query (/query ubottu) to test it out, instead of this channel.
[23:24] <RobLikesBrunch> Hello, I have a quick question about getting my Audio Card working
[23:24] <RobLikesBrunch> This article says it works: http://techgage.com/article/using_the_asus_xonar_essence_stx_under_linux/
[23:24] <RobLikesBrunch> BUT, I have no idea how to get to the system menu he's in
[23:24] <erUSUL> Powersource: ;) my little cousin enjoyed it for years
[23:24] <RobLikesBrunch> Or...how to configure it at least
[23:24] <thijs_> Jordan_U, Yes, I have just used the cable on this laptop to test it, the other laptop is next to me, but it won't connect
[23:25] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: he's using kde
[23:25] <Jordan_U> thijs_: Can you ( with a thumb drive and another computer if needed ) pastebin the output of "ifconfig", "nm-tool", "route -n" and after getting those, the output of "sudo dhclient eth0" ?
[23:25] <e3co> what is the best calculator in ubuntu to deal with imaginary numbers?
[23:25] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: that's kde's systemsettings
[23:25] <omgd> Hello im tryin t oget my eyetoy camera working as a webcam. It works but the picture it shows has white lines through it, any ideas?
[23:25] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: in channel please
[23:25] <RobLikesBrunch> oops
[23:25] <RobLikesBrunch> Sorry.
[23:25] <Jordan_U> e3co: bc
[23:25] <RobLikesBrunch> Is there anyway I can control the card?
[23:25] <thijs_> Jordan_U, ok, will do that. hang on please
[23:26] <Jordan_U> e3co: Well, depends on what you want it for actually
[23:26] <Helios> erUSUL i dont have graphical my ubuntu, how i can give more megabytes on SWAP ?
[23:26] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: system -> preferences -> sound is gnome's equivalent settings section
[23:26] <thedude42> GuyS, so you can look in your /var/log/apt/term.log and see the packages that were installed, and find the one that put stuff somewhere in your .gnome2 directory
[23:26] <e3co> I want to answer and show work for complex numbers - sqrt and standard
[23:26] <erUSUL> Helios: you can make a swapfile if you do not want to edit paritions
[23:26] <RobLikesBrunch> I saw that, but my card has multiple outputs, and I haven't found a way to control between them
[23:26] <maco> thedude42: packages dont touch your ~/.gnome2
[23:26] <Bookman> scunizi, nope, still no go.  Just times out
[23:26] <maco> thedude42: the program may on its first run, however
[23:26] <Ihateapache> I finally fixed ubuntu apacha
[23:27] <e3co> it would also be nice if I could put print up my math home work as well
[23:27] <Helios> erUSUL swap file is the econical RAM right?
[23:27] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: ah... hmm padevchooser maybe?
[23:27] <Ihateapache> now, how do I get ubuntu to acknowledge .htaccess?
[23:27] <mQQsh> is it possible to force quit a program?
[23:27] <RobLikesBrunch> Give me a moment, I'll install it and see.
[23:27] <erUSUL> Helios: no swapfile is another way of adding swap space the other one is the usual swap partition
[23:27] <Ihateapache> kill -9, last measure though
[23:27] <e3co> mQQsh:  there is a panel applet for it
[23:27] <ariqz> any feature that uses your connection without your explicit approval is a terrible idea. I want to disable it nowz!
[23:28] <e3co> or you can use kill and PID
[23:28] <knoppies> mQQsh, yes it is. If you using gnome you can add an applet to your panel that force quits applets
[23:28] <Ihateapache> kill -9 [pid]
[23:28] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: or pavucontrol
[23:28] <Jordan_U> mQQsh: Yes, System > Administration > System Monitor or "pkill" from a terminal
[23:28] <thedude42> maco, you're saying that there wouldn't ever be a postinstall script that parsed through the home directories looking for a specific file to update/add/edit under .gnome2, or some other ~/.* config file?
[23:28] <Jeruvy> Ihateapache: not sure what you mean by 'ubuntu ack' but if the .htaccess is in a documentroot directory or any other it will read it.  This is strictly apaches work tho.
[23:28] <Billiard> Ihateapache: apache is ignoring .htaccess file rules currently?
[23:28] <e3co> can't you kill right from top?
[23:28] <e3co> I know it has commands in the interface
[23:28] <Helios> erUSUL what is the command to make another one SWAP FILE ?
[23:29] <maco> thedude42: since those directories will vary by user, thatd be just a *bit* odd...and id be extremely surprised if it wasnt a violation of some debian maintainer rules
[23:29] <e3co> mkswap
[23:29] <GuyS> thedude42: do you suggest the .gnome2 dir is where the window settings are stored? If so, what might explain the lack of persistence of the settings after logging out -- right now I have the window decorations, but they are lost on logout. btw - I have chown -R user:group for myself on ~/* so that shouldn't be an issue.
[23:29] <e3co> Why two Helios?
[23:29] <erUSUL> ariqz: System>Admin>software Sources || third tab updates. disable automatic updates
[23:29] <Ihateapache> Billiard: Yes, I even tried changing AllowOverride under /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default with no sucess
[23:29] <erUSUL> Helios: are you really filling up your aviable swap space ?
[23:29] <xrdodrx> What do I need to record TV from directv for viewing on an ubuntu pc?
[23:30] <Billiard> Ihateapache: reloaded apache then?
[23:30] <RobLikesBrunch> Maco...how exactly do you talk in red text like that, in-chat?
[23:30] <ariqz> erUSUL, I already got rid of that
[23:30] <erUSUL> !who | RobLikesBrunch
[23:30] <Ihateapache> Billiard:  i think it's working so far, we will see
[23:30] <e3co> Helios:  what are your system specs?  with 3gb of ram I have never filled more then 5% of wap
[23:31] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: im not talking in colored text... it could just be your client's way of saying "hey! someone said your name!"
[23:31] <e3co> swap
[23:31] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: when someone says my name, it gets highlighted with a pink background
[23:31] <ctmjr> xrdodrx: a tv tuner card an an app like freevo or mythtv
[23:31] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: on my client
[23:31] <RobLikesBrunch> So I just type your name before I type the message?
[23:31] <thedude42> GuyS, honestly I think the bug has more to do with how your system is resuming from suspend, but if something 'changed' that caused the problem that would be where to look for something that would explain the temp user not experiencing the same behaviour
[23:31] <erUSUL> RobLikesBrunch: exactly
[23:31] <blaz2> trism: no sorry actually %"myusergroup" ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL didnt't work either..
[23:32] <RobLikesBrunch> maco does this work?
[23:32] <maco> RobLikesBrunch: yep
[23:32] <ariqz> Is there a distribution of linux that isn't so uppity? I don't want a million different updates all the time. I can care less about every little "fix" and I'd prefer having a package that was done right the first time. I'm in no rush to get the newest silly thing
[23:32] <trism> blaz2: did you replace myusergroup with the group of your user?
[23:32] <WilliamC_> Which is newer, Wine or Wine 1.2?
[23:32] <Billiard> ariqz: just dont run the updates then
[23:32] <maco> ariqz: debian?
[23:32] <erUSUL> ariqz: go ask in ##linux
[23:32] <maco> Billiard: bad plan
[23:32] <thedude42> ariqz, slackware and gentoo
[23:32] <maco> oh god
[23:32] <erUSUL> !ot
[23:32] <RobLikesBrunch> maco Pulse doesn't find the card
[23:32] <jrib> ariqz: use ubuntu and only enable security updates, not others...
[23:32] <wgrant> WilliamC_: Wine 1.2. It is currently in beta.
[23:32] <blaz2> trism: yes, and tried with and without " "
[23:33] <WilliamC_> wgrant, lol, grant is my middle name.
[23:33]  * erUSUL raises his "do not feed the troll" sign
[23:33] <nutterpc> lol
[23:33] <wgrant> Uhoh.
[23:33] <WGrantC> Lets make things confusing
[23:33] <nutterpc> but trolls give tasty candy
[23:33] <nutterpc> lol
[23:34] <rednammoc> llutz: thx
[23:34] <thijs_> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/f6dbdba70 also i found this quite suspicious: http://pastebin.com/f5cd85d82
[23:34] <lordganesh>  i have one problem in ubuntu .....whenever i reboot my sound automatically goes off...any solution...
[23:35] <GuyS> thedude42: <hmmm> I've reinstalled multiple packages and logged out/in and restarted *many* times over the past four hours. So though the resume from suspend may have triggered the issue at first, it is its persistence now that is aggravating after all that I've done, especially as it occurs with both the metacity and compiz/emarald systems.
[23:35] <lordganesh>  i have one problem in ubuntu .....whenever i reboot my sound automatically mute...any solution...
[23:35] <ariqz> maybe I'm trolling, but I'm aggravated because ubuntu stole my connection to download some retarded thing and made me lose a poker tournament.
[23:35] <thijs_> Jordan_U, the network part, but the  ethernet one seems to work?
[23:35] <WilliamC2> Has anyone tried playing that free version of Sim City Classic?
[23:35] <Billiard> ariqz: i hate when downloads make me lose poker tournaments
[23:35] <thedude42> GuyS, you need to include --purge in the uninstall if you want the configurations files to be removed, otherwise they stay
[23:35] <Billiard> ariqz: ubuntu doesnt download updates on its own unless you told it to
[23:35] <ariqz> arbitrarily taking my resources is BS >:)
[23:36] <wgrant> ariqz: You told it to.
[23:36] <ariqz> I didn't tell it to. I explicitly turned them off
[23:36] <wgrant> It won't install things without you clicking the button.
[23:36] <ariqz> I don't even know what it downloaded
[23:36] <bensmith> what what downloaded
[23:36] <bensmith> ???
[23:36] <ariqz> but data was being transfered and choking out my connection, I could see that
[23:36] <trism> blaz2: there was another idea on the third page of the thread, but it seems none of the methods worked for the last poster, so I don't know, maybe it changed recently
[23:36] <Jordan_U> thijs_: Are you using the right cable ( strait through vs crossover ) ? ( Some nics can switch automatically, so your other laptop working doesn't guarentee the right cable )
[23:37] <wgrant> ariqz: Perhaps it was the package lists being updated.
[23:37] <thedude42> GuyS, thing is that it is possible the kernel update caused the issue, and that there may be a patch soon that addresses it, but you probably shoudl look in /var/log/syslog and see if there are any acpi, X or gnome errors coming up in association with the errors you se
[23:37] <bensmith> i was wondering is there any way besides zenmap to see all the traffic on the lan in realtime
[23:37] <vlt> thijs_: What does `sudo ethtool eth0` tell you? Connected?
[23:37] <GuyS> thedude42: I did NOT use --purge.  Of the various packages, so that I don't use my shotgun approach, which should I purge? Metacity alone?
[23:38] <thijs_> Jordan_U, i believe this is a normal cat5 cable
[23:38] <bennkenn> my workspace switch doesn't switch workspaces.
[23:38] <blaz2> trism: yup thats because I'm the last poster :)
[23:38] <n8tuser> ariqz-> how did you see that? you have a monitor to watch the traffic?
[23:39] <ariqz> n8tuser, I can see it with gnome PPP
[23:39] <thijs_> vlt, it just gives me a list of info i don't understand, and nothing about connected. Though it says speed: '1000 mb/s'
[23:39] <n8tuser> ariqz-> gnome PPP does what? what statistics?
[23:39] <blaz2> Did someone manage to get hardware accelerated 3D work on eeepc 701 (intel i915) in Karmic?
[23:40] <ariqz> it shows the amount of data being transfered in and out in real time
[23:40] <vlt> thijs_: Last line, it's actually "Link detected"
[23:40] <n8tuser> ariqz-> does it also shows the renegotiations and retransmits?
[23:40] <ariqz> no
[23:40] <thijs_> vlt, yes it says: Link detected: yes
[23:41] <vlt> thijs_: Then the cable is fine
[23:41] <thijs_> vlt, good to know, thanks
[23:41] <n8tuser> ariqz-> you need to prefix your responses with a nick as a courtesy
[23:41] <nicklas_> if you update between releases instead of reinstalling, can you miss out on something then?
[23:42] <vlt> thijs_: Is the DHCP server under your control?
[23:42] <lordganesh>  i have one problem in ubuntu .....whenever i reboot my sound automatically mute...any solution...
[23:43] <thijs_> vlt, the cable is connected to a router which i control yes. Though I can't do much with it because there are other people using the internet as we speak(including me)
[23:43] <carbm2> lordganesh, Are you running 9.10?  I've noticed my 9.10 is doing that also on both of my Dell Laptops.
[23:43] <zleap> wow nice it found my printer
[23:43] <dd> help
[23:43] <WilliamC2> There is a pre-set for running Firefox in WINE
[23:43] <erUSUL> !ask | dd
[23:43] <WilliamC2> That seems kinda stupid
[23:43] <vlt> thijs_: And the DHCP runs on the same box as the router, tight?
[23:43] <vlt> *right
[23:44] <WilliamC2> Also, should I run X-Chat Gnome client, or playing X-Chat?
[23:44] <lordganesh> carbm2: no i m using 9.04 .when i installed kubuntu-desktop package problem starts
[23:44] <snakerdlk> Hi, since I've updated the nvidia driver to 180.44 my notebook keeps freezing... should I install a nem untested version or install the old one?(how do I do that?)
[23:44] <andril> Hello all
[23:44] <thijs_> vlt, yeah, it's just a simple home network, so one box does all the connection info. It's weird because when I plug the cable in another computer the internet works just fine
[23:45] <mQQsh> what is the terminal command to uninstall a program
[23:45] <andril> i recently upgraded using the alt cd - is there any way to stop it from asking for the cd during updates?
[23:45] <thijs_> mQQsh, sudo apt-get remove [program]
[23:45] <vlt> mQQsh: `sudo aptitude remove program`
[23:45] <thijs_> ar aptitude indeed
[23:46] <RobLikesBrunch> Can someone help me getting a soundcard to work?
[23:46] <mQQsh> awesome thanks guys
[23:46] <erUSUL> andril: disable it as source in System>Admin>software sources || first tab
[23:46] <vlt> thijs_: What do you mean? Plug what into what?
[23:46] <fbianconi> !sound | RobLikesBrunch
[23:47] <andril> erUSUL: yesssss you are the man
[23:47] <erUSUL> andril: no problem
[23:47] <RobLikesBrunch> fbianconi I've already confirmed that. According to this article: http://techgage.com/article/using_the_asus_xonar_essence_stx_under_linux/ it does work...and he said it was even detected off the Live CD, but not for me.
[23:48] <snakerdlk> How do I install a specific version of the nvidia driver ?
[23:48] <thijs_> vlt, when i plug the cat5 cable in another computer that computer will have internet, and I usually don't have much trouble with the 8.04 installation, i just find it weird that it didn't connect. I just did a format and then reinstalled.
[23:48] <andril> this is a proper upgrade
[23:48] <justfil> I got a problem with vlc media player, when I start some video it plays in its own window which annoys me very much :/ how can I set it to play in the vlc's window?
[23:49] <vlt> thijs_: Can you substitute "plug" with "connect" please? I still don't know which devices are connected when it works .
[23:50] <trism> justfil: unfortunately they disabled because it was causing problems for some people. It wasn't enabled again until version 1+, which isn't in jaunty
[23:50] <thijs_> vlt, i was talking about other computers. But i don't think this is a cable/router problem, but more likely a laptop/device problem
[23:50] <GuyS> thedude42: thanks for your help and suggestions -- I see nothing that seems relevant in user.log, syslog, dmesg or messages -- but then, that assumes that I'd know what was relevant if I saw it :-)  I'll do some more research.
[23:51] <trism> justfil: it seems to be updated to version 1.0.2 in karmic though, which will be released on thursday
[23:51] <andril> erUSUL: how do i change the new upsplash it's Xubuntu and I want Ubuntu
[23:51] <FiReSTaRT> justfil: i'm not sure that can be changed, but i like the option because i usually play the vids on a separate screen... so i keep the controls on the laptop screen and the video is playing on the tv screen
[23:52] <vlt> thijs_: I'd try two things: 1. Set the speed to 100M and retry. 2. Set the mac addr to one of another computer (and unplug that)...
[23:52] <thijs_> vlt, how would I do any of them?
[23:53] <vlt> thijs_: The ethtool command can be used to set the speed.
[23:53] <vlt> thijs_: ifconfig can set a new mac addr. Search the manpage for "ether"
[23:53] <justfil> thanks guys, I'm using 9.04 so I guess I could find vlc 1.0 and the 'problem' will be gone?
[23:54] <trism> justfil: I haven't tested it yet because I was too lazy to build vlc from source, but from what I heard it is supposed to be enabled again in version 1+
[23:54] <krummlauf> how do i shut down a process on this
[23:55] <tom-davidson> hi, i want to install darksnow, but it has an dependantcy of darkice. i have complieled and installed my own version of darkice. how do i install darksnow with apt with out this one dependancy?
[23:56] <Spudster> Has anyone here been able to load Ubuntu 9.04 on a Compaq 8500 and get SMP working?
[23:56] <thijs_> vlt, ok, option 1 didn't work, and all i have is two laptops in front of me, don't have any other computers that i can use for their mac-addr.
[23:57] <thijs_> vlt, might this problem've occurred due to the installation from livecd, where i selected install ubuntu instead of boot from cd and then install ?
[23:58] <vlt> thijs_: I don't think so.  What didn't work? Setting the speed or obtaining an IP address with the lower speed?  What happens when you set the address manually. Can you ping another machine?
[23:58] <krummlauf> ok i figured it out
[23:58] <krummlauf> no thanks to any of yuo
[23:58] <thijs_> vlt setting the speed to 100mb/s didn't work
[23:58] <lordganesh> vlt: can u help me .. my sound automatically mute when i reboot.....
[23:59] <vlt> thijs_: Do you know how to set an IP address manually?
[23:59] <thijs_> vlt, yes, i can try that
