[00:00] RenatoSilva, not, it will be kept [00:00] it' [00:00] RenatoSilva: no, you can still install it [00:00] s not intel.. it's broadcom i think [00:00] !info pidgin karmic [00:00] habanany: firefox-3.7 -safe-mode [00:00] Hp Pavilion dv2000 series laptop [00:00] ActionParsnip: what if I didn't have it? [00:00] which is good. empathy is not up to par yet. [00:00] is #ubuntu+1 closed? [00:00] joaopinto: ^^ [00:00] yessssssss [00:00] RenatoSilva: sudo apt-get install pidgin [00:00] mattwj2002: Yes. [00:00] RenatoSilva, then you will not get it unless you chose to install it [00:00] LjL: hi [00:00] why? [00:00] mattwj2002, 'cause there is no ubuntu+1 anymore [00:00] mattwj2002, it's released now [00:01] shouldn't it cover 10.04? [00:01] TheCheeze: I'm afraid I don't know about that. Hopefully someone else can help. If not, search the forums! They always seem to work for me, eventually anyway. [00:01] joaopinto: but pidgin came installed, why not the new client? [00:01] mattwj2002, doesn't exist yet [00:01] oh okay [00:01] 9.04 [00:01] mattwj2002: lucid is in hugely early stages [00:01] joaopinto: via Passwords and Encryption keys? [00:01] RenatoSilva, pidgin does not get installed by default on karmic [00:01] joaopinto: ubuntu always came with some IM installed, why not this time [00:01] mattwj2002: it opens ub on the 5th when the toolchain is uploaded [00:01] lircdbugr, yes [00:01] is 9.10 lts? [00:01] 9.10 [00:01] quick question... if I type 'ls *.vis' it'll show all .vis files... How would I get a listing of all not *.vis files? [00:01] !session [00:01] RenatoSilva, it does come with empathy [00:01] pidgin (source: pidgin): graphical multi-protocol instant messaging client for X. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.6.2-1ubuntu7 (karmic), package size 562 kB, installed size 1784 kB [00:01] No [00:01] To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot [00:01] sounds good [00:01] 8.4 [00:01] Chriz1: no 10.04 is the next lts [00:01] I am dieing for Gnome 3! [00:01] :D [00:02] joaopinto: who said pidgin get installed by default in karmic? [00:02] 9.10 is awesome though I just installed it [00:02] and I love it [00:02] great work [00:02] :D [00:02] RenatoSilva, grrr, joaopinto: but pidgin came installed, why not the new client? [00:02] mattwj2002: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:02] cool, 8.10 will be support till 2012 right? [00:02] tanath: Ahhh maybe it was because my usb stick didn't have a boot flag. gparted just added one, do you think that was it? [00:02] conb123, quite possibly [00:02] Bah, what is the point of a verification utility that can't detect when the disk is broken? :( [00:02] mattwj2002: Though that'll probably no be in lucid, I think... [00:03] joaopinto: I AM UPGRADING to 9.10, so you can easily infer I'm talking about < 9.10 ;) [00:03] O_o [00:03] When will the repos be updated with karmic RC stuffs, or has it already happened? [00:03] Chriz1, for servers, yes, not desktops [00:03] I thought it would be [00:03] ActionParsnip: karmic is out [00:03] i'm having trouble with eclipse. see details here [00:03] http://pastebin.com/m31b89e2e [00:03] joaopinto, what if we used the desktop cd and run it as a server? [00:03] RenatoSilva, and we already answered you that pidgin will be kept on upgrade :) [00:03] joaopinto: so emphaty comes with 9.10, so I'll get 2 IMs installed in the end of update? [00:03] RenatoSilva, yes [00:03] ubuntu__1: i know but are the repos up to date with the rC packages [00:03] joaopinto: aaaah :P [00:03] ok, I have a barely surviving fresh install of karma that freezes every few minutes, I have no way to install a new version so I could really do with help to get this one up and running [00:03] Anybody currently upgrading, specifically downlading the new packages? [00:04] joaopinto: your reiterating that made me quadruple-check and finally it makes sense: right-clicking the "folder" dropdown allows a blank password. thanks! [00:04] joaopinto: thanks john === Paraselene__ is now known as Paraselene_ [00:04] First time user. Just installed 9.10 off a USB stick with a nearly flawless install. You developers ROCK! [00:04] hey, I have a problem. Gnome is not loading. GDM loads and I log in and I get a black screen and a mouse pointer and that is it. [00:04] Somebody can help me? [00:04] ActionParsnip: they should be updated with the final packages [00:04] rick__shadey: Enjoy! [00:04] Hey guys look at this video, this is happening to me when i enter to gnome in ubuntu 9.10: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipD2rQwJpM0 [00:04] how can I force ubiquity to use a specific hard drive? It doesn't detect my drive [00:04] rick__shadey: how did you create your USB installer? [00:04] ubuntu__1: cool, thanks [00:04] Hey guys, got 9.10 installed from USB stick, working very nicely, extremely fast too =), lovely fresh install with ext4 =D [00:04] joaopinto: emphaty looks a bit like pidgin, is it the same code base? [00:04] ActionParsnip: your welcome [00:04] ActionParsnip: I followed each of those steps but it didn't solve the problem [00:04] i'm running Ubuntu 9.04 with the Filipino translation - there isn't a filipino 9.10 available yet though - what happens if i upgrade to karmic? it reverts to english? [00:04] Short wav files stuff up in karmic. They play super quickly - the pidgin message received sound anyway. every time it plays in pidgin it goes super fast. first time it plays in default media player it does too but after that for the most part its fine [00:04] joaopinto: didn't try it yet, but it seems just a pidgin with voice and video [00:04] RenatoSilva: Nothing like it. [00:04] JediMaster: ext4 will reduce thelife ofthe USB due to the journal [00:04] It actually didnt work with the default installer off the iso. I used the second suggestion and that worked perfect... [00:05] RenatoSilva, not they don't have the same codebasse [00:05] MenZa: nothing from pidgin? Then it should be good [00:05] JediMaster: ext2 will prolong its life [00:05] RenatoSilva: Certainly. [00:05] ActionParsnip: sorry, I meant I did the install FROM the USB stick to the HDD [00:05] coordinador, wow that's odd... [00:05] MenZa: how about IRC support [00:05] rick__shadey: second suggestion? [00:05] MenZa: doesn't look like XChat right? [00:05] I got my built-in mic working now [00:05] millertimek1a2m3, Eclipse was updated on karmic, just go to Software center and install it [00:05] anyone yet to try ubuntu 9.10 [00:05] RenatoSilva: It has some, but it's very limited. === liyingqiao is now known as ubuntu-li [00:05] RenatoSilva: i use carrier, its a fork of pidgin but you can directly ask the devs for functionality [00:05] and even so, the live USB stick was damn fast, especially considering it's an old stick [00:06] ifeanyi, what have you done ? [00:06] hello, I implemented a hack some time ago that when I get "blahblah you need to install package X" terminal also asks "install now?" but I can't find the howto anymore; someone knows the link? [00:06] just recompiled the alsa driver [00:06] can you upgrade from the live cd, im getting a really crappy download speed from the servers right now? [00:06] hi all. i know the new version of ubuntu 9.10 is out today only question i have is if i want to update to that and download it i have to save all my files i have on my hdd right? [00:06] Argos: been sence beta lol [00:06] quick question, the ubuntu site mentions ipod sync with rythmbox, but I can't seem to find any options to do it, am I right in thinking the iphone has to be jailbroken first? [00:06] MenZa: limited IRC? Hum maybe I will need fudgin still [00:06] bhearsum: you will probably find a mixture of filipino and english language [00:06] Alan: Yeah. sorry. It worked with unetbootin [00:06] rick__shadey: you mean second suggestion on the community wiki? using unetbootin? [00:06] mattgyver: not that i know of [00:06] mattgyver: well everyone is upgrading, so it will be slow. think about it [00:06] got a real fast download link .. [00:06] ActionParsnip: does carrier IM still exist? [00:06] if anyon is interested [00:06] rick__shadey: ooh, awesome - i've just started trying with that :) [00:06] mattgyver: No - I suggest a clean install, but you can update from the alternate CD. If it's slow, try a torrent. [00:06] GhostWolfy: I didnt have to save anything [00:06] RenatoSilva: totally [00:06] funkyHat: ah [00:06] RenatoSilva: Or, you can use a proper IRC client like XChat, or irssi. [00:06] bigfootbuilt, what? [00:07] ActionParsnip, I know that ;) thats why i wanted to try a live cd [00:07] funkyHat: so basically...anything translated will be translated... [00:07] JediMaster: old ipods can sync itouch and iphone need to be jailbroken for a wifi sync [00:07] ActionParsnip: I stopped using it when I felt it was a failed fork [00:07] rick__shadey: coulda used you an hour ago :P [00:07] How do you set the volume level from the terminal in karmic? amixer set 'Master' 75% no longer works [00:07] funkyHat: i guess i need to look on launchpad to see how much is translated? [00:07] alan: I'd say good luck, but it was seemless. Now I just have to learn a whole new OS> Should be fun though [00:07] JediMaster, probably jailbroken and backlevel. iPhones and iPod Touches are pretty much locked down. [00:07] MenZa: XChat is -ugly- [00:07] JediMaster: The keyword is 'iPod' - it will only work with classic iPods. [00:07] Ghostwolfy: What are you asking? [00:07] !iphone > JediMaster [00:07] hmmmm, there is no Hashes on the UbuntuHashes for Karmic.... ??? [00:07] JediMaster, please see my private message [00:07] RenatoSilva: Only as ugly as you make it. [00:07] ActionParsnip: Do you have any other ideas about what I can do ? [00:07] oh save sorry thought you meant say.. so it didn't format your hdd when you updating to 9.10 from the cd? [00:07] Does anyone have this problem? I click on "System" and I don't have icons for Preferences, Advanced, etc. I do have icons for "Places" and "Applications" HELP! [00:07] MenZa: huh??? [00:07] bhearsum: yeah, you probably know better than me how to find that though [00:07] !alternative [00:07] netbook, i have that issue [00:07] RenatoSilva: You can customise it if you wish. I use irssi myself, but that's all a matter of taste. [00:08] MenZa: why feel offended? wait I know, you're not [00:08] netbook: you can enable the icons again on System/Preferences/Appearance on the Interface tab [00:08] funkyHat: ok - thanks! [00:08] fair enough, I've got a 3GS begging to be jailbroken, I'll have to blow the dust off my 24" imac I never use to jailbreak it ;-) [00:08] RenatoSilva: Not at all :) [00:08] wow got it in 15 minutes. [00:08] does anyone know off-hand if the alternative install will let you install GRUB1 on a clean install? [00:08] Thank you trism [00:08] The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal [00:08] Ghostwolfy: If you are asking if you have to back up anything, I didn't have to. But I used the update manager to upgrade [00:08] Argos, why Argos? [00:08] hello [00:08] exit [00:08] ;P [00:08] I'm in the process of downloading to look, but it will be a while (couple of hours at the current rate). [00:08] dowloadied it in 15 minutes ubuntu [00:08] bigfootbuilt, ok but if i was to do it from the live cd i would have to right? [00:08] Argos, anything to do with the british chain store? [00:08] Argos: torrent? [00:09] no..lol [00:09] Argos: www.argos.co.uk =) [00:09] no..lol [00:09] MenZa: it uses the same old-fashioned of aMSN iirc [00:09] RenatoSilva: No... it doesn't. [00:09] MenZa: I really wonder wtf is that ugly ui in aMSN [00:09] MenZa: not GTK certaintly [00:09] Ghostwolfy: I'm sorry, I haven't tried live CD [00:10] RenatoSilva: It is. [00:10] bigfootbuilt, its ok just asking thats all [00:10] pidgin forever [00:10] MenZa: why is aMSN so ugly then, and looking so different from the whole system ui? [00:10] RenatoSilva: http://video.linux-noob.com/screenshots/ubuntu/7.04/post-1-1178099902.png <- It should look like that. [00:10] Anyone else experiencing audio issues on pidgin message received sound? [00:10] RenatoSilva: Oh, aMSN is still not GTK. I thought you meant xchat. [00:10] netbook, Flynsarmy -- it is not a bug, it is a new feature. There is an LP item on it related to the decision. [00:10] nope [00:10] I have a working install that im scared to go out of the shell because it keeps on freezing, does anyone have any ideas about how I can recover it? [00:10] bigfootbuilt, i was thinkin i would have to save my files i have which is alot if i was going to do it through live cd [00:10] how can i add windows and ubuntu installers into the same pendrive? is it posible to modify grub to boot both os installations? [00:10] hello [00:11] netbook, Flynsarmy -- you can turn the icons back on, if you wish. [00:11] MenZa: no, aMSN. What ui then, do you know? [00:11] I downloaded Kubuntu 9.10 via BitTorrent and verified md4sums. I burned to CD and it lets me select language, but any selection besides "boot from first hard drive" results in a blinking cursor in the upper left corner. Trying to install AMD64-desktop-kubuntu [00:11] thx jedi didnt even know that place existed lol [00:11] any of you could recommend a decent php editor? [00:11] where do i seek help after my dist-update on server ? it doesnt seem to boot up or something [00:11] hey [00:11] localnnuser__: just make the partations and ubuntu will do the rest [00:11] MenZa: http://video.linux-noob.com/screenshots/ubuntu/7.04/post-1-1178099902.png ----> UGLY [00:11] quick question... if I type 'ls *.vis' it'll show all .vis files... How would I get a listing of all not *.vis files? [00:11] Ergo^: here oor maybe over in #ubuntu-server [00:11] question: how can i get wireless going on ubuntu? i have a linksys wireless adapter [00:11] i imagine it needs drivers [00:12] Ghostwolfy: I am still kind of new and not sure what live cd is lol. But when I updated from the manager, it went flawlessly and lost nothing [00:12] Ramunas, komodo has intellitext or calltips or whatever you call them and is free [00:12] RenatoSilva: Not at all. But this is straying offtopic :) [00:12] olhado, yes, it would need drivers. and generally recognizes any hardware it can use. [00:12] hey what is a program to trace my route to a certain ip address? I used to have...but cant remember the name to install it [00:12] Come onnnnnnn steam :( [00:12] bigfootbuilt, live cd is when you download ubuntu from the cd and burn it on a cd [00:12] !torrents [00:12] Karmic can be torrented from http://hr.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your architecture. Torrents for other Ubuntu flavours can be found at: http://it.releases.ubuntu.com/ (CD) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases (DVD). [00:12] noel, where can i find those? === jamie is now known as Guest73563 [00:12] bruno123, tracepath [00:12] MenZa: not at all in YOUR opinion. Opinions still exist you know [00:12] thanks NoelJB [00:12] dksoba88, and i didnt uploaded that video, i just found because happened to other people [00:13] bruno123: system>administration>network tools [00:13] tracerought [00:13] dksoba88: find . ! -name '*.vis' -print [00:13] coordinador, so you're saying it's not all that uncommon?

I take it that it isn't being recognized when you insert the device? [00:13] MenZa: about aMSN, do you know what ui it is? [00:13] Anyone else know if you have to backup your files if you upgrade with live cd? [00:13] erUSUL, thanks [00:13] Hello. [00:13] Is there keyserver.ubuntu.com not working properly, I can't seem to get a key [00:13] Does anyone here have pidgin installed and the message received sound turned on and have it playing correctly - ie not faster than it should? [00:13] olhado, I'd also monitor udev to see what it thinks/sees as the hardware is processed. [00:13] How do I configure a switch or router in Ubuntu? [00:13] jdahm: use the mit keyserver [00:13] ok [00:14] erUSUL: address? [00:14] hi [00:14] jdahm: it uses some time.

[00:19] exactly [00:19] RenatoSilva: I forge [00:19] *forget [00:19] hinchy: really dunno; maybe some bios setting help. or a boot option to the kernel.- [00:19] !boot | hinchy [00:19] hinchy: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto [00:19] But I dont know how configure it [00:19] who was talking to me about aMSN fudgin XChat? [00:19] Chronon: Do When you say they won't boot, they are apparently doing something else. What are they doing? [00:19] lstarnes: forget what [00:19] I'm knew on ubuntu [00:19] I mean new [00:19] RenatoSilva: never mind [00:20] lstarnes: ok [00:20] Thanks, it works. [00:20] cepfpg264, there are a lot of tutorials for it. I've got a configuration at home for my server, but am not in a position to grab and paste a sanitized version right now/ [00:20] RenatoSilva: I can't think today [00:20] coordinador: remount read only == hard drive/filesystem serious error [00:20] sirjoebob: its nevere tabbed install style works on remove thow [00:20] lstarnes: good to know that update process doesn't uninstall unused apps [00:20] S_SubZero: Thanks. It takes me to a black screen with blinking cursor in upper left hand corner. Boot from first hard drive works correctly [00:20] ubuntu 9.04 i have a black screen anyone have an idea to solve my problem [00:20] lstarnes: it makes me think about reinstallking ubuntu completely [00:20] cepfpg264, try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba [00:20] RenatoSilva: there's really no way for it to easily know what is and is not used [00:20] gogeta, my point is it isn't completing items correctly when pressing tab in terminal. Is this a common issue or something I have messed up or something? [00:20] erUSUL, but, this happen in the middle of the session, and my drive is a SDHC [00:20] look could somebody send to my e-mail the right configuration??? [00:21] RenatoSilva: just remove the unwanted packages [00:21] i need to do something i dont know how to start... i need to put windows installer and kubuntu installer on the same pendrive... how can i do this? [00:21] lstarnes: which makes me lazy, because I have some customizations to make it actually pretty to me, like in here: http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/981/nicel.png [00:21] RenatoSilva thats what i do each time it is a x.10 or so [00:21] Chronon: sounds kinda "I can't figure out the MBR"ish. The LiveCD simply won't start? [00:21] lstarnes: RenatoSilva: Janitor? [00:21] bought yesterday and the system was installed today [00:21] lstarnes: what packages? I don't even know how many ubuntu is leaving here [00:21] hey [00:21] does anyone know why GDM/gnome would freeze after i log in? [00:22] pooky1: but I'm lazy :( my ubuntu is beautiful http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/981/nicel.png [00:22] and just show a black screen with a cursor? [00:22] RenatoSilva: you can find all installed packages with dpkg -l [00:22] i made another user account and it works [00:22] lippij: seems to be happening with quite a lot of people [00:22] let me try with that, but I've seen a lot of tutorials [00:22] I get the following issue everytime I update or install something /sbin/ldconfig.real: libraries libtiff.so.4 and libtiff.so.3 in directory /usr/lib have same soname but different type. [00:22] yeah i understand that [00:22] hm [00:22] S_SubZero: It gets as far as accepting my language selection and showing the menu. The only menu item that works properly is "boot from first hard drive". Boot LiveCD, Check Disk for Errors, Install, etc. all fail [00:22] thanks dale [00:22] but I havent got any advice about it [00:22] ok [00:22] well you can pass on that if you useradd another account, it works [00:22] RenatoSilva : how did u do transparency ??? [00:22] On Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit, I am getting a Network Error when I try to sign on to AIM using empathy's AIM protocol, does anyone know how to fix this? [00:22] temporarily [00:23] någon svensk här? [00:23] Tja [00:23] RenatoSilva : for taskbar and windows ? === jay is now known as Guest84717 [00:23] look, please somebody send me the right conf. my email is cepfpg264@hotmail.com [00:23] lstarnes: ubuntu updater should say "hey epiphany is not installed by default in this new version, it was replaced by a better browser FF, which will be installed anyway. Would you like to remove Epiphany". IT SHOULD DO THIS for all apps, the same for fudgin / emphaty [00:23] lippij: mines happening often before / just after grub [00:23] tjabab [00:23] be mercy... jajaja [00:23] anybody use wine-doors on 9.10? [00:23] !anybody | oldjingleballics [00:23] oldjingleballics: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [00:23] mandrew: Läget ? [00:23] RenatoSilva: submit a feature request please [00:23] Chronon: hmm.. so the LiveCD kinda starts but then hangs while going to the actual Live OS. Sounds like it doesn't like some component. [00:23] pooky1: in the properties, right click it [00:23] kan du ngt om iphonen [00:23] I have already triple checked my password and it's not that [00:23] cepfpg264, there is no right config for your config that someone could send you/ [00:23] d e lugnt själv? [00:23] its happening during install as well [00:23] hello. I installed latest ubuntu on a virtual machine. after installing guest operating system package, i get the login screen at a much higher resolution. can someone help me fix that ? [00:23] lstarnes: you're from cannonical? [00:23] mandrew: Fint det. [00:23] s/nn/n [00:24] !se | mandrew [00:24] mandrew: Svensk Ubuntu- och Kubuntusupport hittar du i #ubuntu-se resp. #kubuntu-se [00:24] RenatoSilva: no [00:24] mandrew: For support på svensk kan du bruge #ubuntu-se her er der kun engelsksproget support. [00:24] cepfpg264, there are pretty simple general things, and I already gave you the URL, but you need to tune (for example, WHAT are you sharing and to WHOM)? [00:24] RenatoSilva: but there is http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/ [00:24] ok I got it [00:24] lstarnes: an ubuntu developer then? you just talked like one :) [00:24] compiz is blacking out my desktop, and not displaying icons. anyone know how to fix? [00:24] anyone else here use pulseaudio and MPD? I'm getting an error with MPD "Failed to open ALSA device...." [00:24] S_SubZero: Yeah. I verified md5sums and also the burn checked out okay. I was hoping to switch to 64-bit on this cycle, but I guess I'll stick with upgrading to the 32-bit version for now. [00:24] S_SubZero: yup, again, same here [00:24] jdahm: configure mdp tu use pulseaudio [00:24] lstarnes: I think brainstorms conflicts with LP's blueprints and bug tracker [00:24] Sorinello, there is a config file for gdm where you can run xrandr. I've had to do that in some cases. [00:24] RenatoSilva: if you have an idea for a new feature for ubuntu, you can submit it to that site that I just listed [00:24] simple, I wanna share a simple folde and my printer [00:25] lstarnes: * brainstorm [00:25] I have 3 partitions, if I have ubuntu 9.04 on one, and windows vista on another, I should be okay to install ubuntu 9.10 on the third, right? They're all big enough. Oh yea, there's a 4th partition for swap too [00:25] RenatoSilva: it is used in conjunction [00:25] hello plp, i've upgreaded to 9.10 now my HDD's are showing 2 times into nautilus ... hey are mounted by my /etc/fstab the other HDD's are unmount because they are all ready mounted by fstab .. .. any idea ? [00:25] ok, so i just moved my /home to a new partition everthing seems to be working but when i ran "chown -R usrname:usrname /home/usrname" the only error it spits out is "/home/usrname/.gvfs': Permission denied" [00:25] hi guys [00:25] i am new to ubuntu and have a wireless g usb adapter TP-LINK Model: TL-WN422G (Ver 2.1). the adapter is not recognized. if i do iwconfig my adapter is NOT listed. please, help! [00:25] :) [00:25] i am running ubuntu 9.04 [00:25] ubuntu 9.10 rocks [00:25] http://pastebin.ca/1648501 [00:25] :) [00:25] and I wanna share them to my partner [00:25] seme: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:25] lstarnes: I've found that site today, but I still think it conficts with LP [00:25] lstarnes: I'd report a bug in LP [00:25] any way to make the downloads of the software faster [00:25] for some reason it is taking forever [00:25] anyone want to comment on their favorite new feature of 9.10 Karmic Koala? [00:25] seme: Use bittorrent. It's much faster [00:26] How would i start etoile via xinit ? [00:26] dksoba88: Not in here. [00:26] lstarnes: I had the same feeling I have when I see ctrl+c/v'd code [00:26] dksoba88: Try #ubuntu-release-party [00:26] can i ask about a bug in karmic here? [00:26] MenZa: Cool. Sorry, didn't know. What's this channel primarily for? [00:26] seeing as its released? [00:26] dksoba88, lack of desktop [00:26] dksoba88: It is exclusively for support - and with the release of 9.10, it's even busier than normal :) [00:26] Chronon: x2, took me less than 10 mins at ~700kbps [00:26] my ubuntu upgrade is froze whats wrong its stuck on downloadin file 279 :( [00:26] I fixed the ld issue [00:27] well thanks for thelp ;) === jamie is now known as Guest34573 [00:27] how do you fix a corrupt install of updates. my computer froze while i tried to install updates and had to force reboot my computer. now i cannot try to reinstall them, how do i fix this [00:27] MenZa: Thanks. Good to know [00:27] dksoba88: Do you like the new 9.10 ? [00:27] RxDx: I found somehow the error, most of the commands I wrote to rc.local don't work if I enter them into the shell: Permission denied (with sudo(!)) I need to switch to root with -i, then it works, is there a way to use root for rc.local ? [00:27] dksoba88: Not a problem :) [00:27] How would i start etoile via xinit ? [00:27] no not the iso [00:27] Diddleha, what? [00:27] who I was talking to about aMSN pidgin??????? [00:27] downloading apps after you have installed ubuntu [00:27] Diddleha, still installing [00:27] it is dirt slow [00:27] RenatoSilva: Me. [00:27] cepfpg264, have you tried right clicking on the foldering and selecting Sharing Options? [00:28] already done [00:28] How can I eject a CD from CLI? [00:28] and nothing happens [00:28] Mike_lifeguard: eject /dev/cdrom [00:28] Hi all. [00:28] pooky1: I'd like to record a video of my PC, specially the 3d effects, but I don't know how [00:28] Mike_LaMar, 'eject -t' [00:28] cepfpg264, OK. [00:28] dksoba88: I was going to, but im listening to Jamendo via rhythmbox and didnt want to break the partymode :) [00:28] tanath: damn no luck just keep getting a meesage saying failed to boot press any key to restart [00:28] MenZa: hi, sorry this channel is so busy [00:28] FAQ, is there an easy way to go build->final on karmik? [00:28] hey all, just installed 9.10 but it's not detecting my webcam. Any suggestions? (I've tested Cheese, CamStream, and some others, no luck says device not found) [00:29] should "/home/usrname/.gvfs': Permission denied" be a concern when trying to get permissions back? [00:29] how to upgrade from alternate cd ? [00:29] Lars_G: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (the normal package update routine) [00:29] MenZa: http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/981/nicel.png ---> pidgin sucks, but this is prettier than XChat imo [00:29] The sounds either plays correctly or doesnt play in pidgin if the messages are close enough together...if theyre too far apart the sound gets screwed up. anyone else experiencing this in karmic? [00:29] MK13: "trying to get permissions back"? [00:29] Diddleha, I see. Well...in the eventual future I take it? [00:29] fyi: it's for a clients computer not my own so I was kinda hoping to resolve it soon. :D [00:29] Mike_lifeguard, 'eject -t' or 'eject -h' for options [00:29] erUSUL: I still get the error http://papernapkin.org/pastebin/view/6600/ [00:29] lstarnes: changing repos? I guess [00:29] RenatoSilva: i think ive seen a software.... like go see on youtube the guys that make videos in linux... kind of recording device that record part or all ur desktop... [00:29] ok, ive managed to boot 2 times in a row now, thats a record [00:29] dksoba88: Absolutely! [00:29] Lars_G: you don't change repos [00:29] conb123, did you use the usb creator? i find that to be the one that worked for me [00:29] hi [00:29] hey [00:29] pooky1: lazyyyy [00:29] lstarnes: Ah they're the same repos using during beta/alpha? thanks [00:29] Lars_G: the repos that were used for pre-release builds of karmic are the same as the release ones [00:29] tantath: Yup [00:30] jrib, i just moved my /home to a seperate partition [00:30] is it normal for the karmic install to get stuck on file 279 ? [00:30] dksoba88: Im thinking tomorrow even ;) [00:30] RenatoSilva: ill look at it [00:30] MK13: ok? [00:30] how do I print the full command (including args) of a process? [00:30] pooky1: no need [00:30] huhu, i will install ubuntu now [00:30] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1304744 [00:30] \o/ [00:30] jrib, not to mention i can't even see the file when browsing in nautilus [00:30] RenatoSilva: as you wish :p [00:30] if anyone can help me, i always get battery problems with karmic UNR it reports the wrong time left or the battery is broken:/ [00:30] pooky1: don't want to disturb [00:30] conb123, what iso did you use? sure the iso is good? [00:30] MK13: the short answer is yes it is normal as .gvfs is special somehow, but I was trying to understand why you were in that mess anyway [00:30] NoelJB: that only fixes the resolution after logging it. my problem is before logging [00:31] * Gaming4JC ponders his borked webcam issue... [00:31] can I "refresh" the kernel install? === Mike_lifeguard is now known as Mike||gone [00:31] RenatoSilva: not really disturbing... im still figure out how i can manually compare the hashes of my ISO [00:31] I've noticed that on Karmic, notify-osd is showing alerts in a much lower position. This is quit anoying. Is this normal? Here is a sample: http://www.kurtkraut.net/images/isitnormal.gif [00:31] pooky1: found the transparency option? [00:31] daleharvey, reinstall it? [00:31] daleharvey: can you define "refresh"? [00:31] i got the original from the website... but transmission dont gimme something good [00:31] lstarnes: None updated, so I guess I'm already on final. [00:31] meh [00:31] daleharvey: You could always compile your own kernel [00:31] jdahm: sorry dunno what that means... [00:31] tanath: Only just got it from the karmic torrent today, i think i may have found the soltuion though someone on forums is mentioning issues with my particular stick when booting [00:31] Of course I need to report carrying bugs [00:31] Sorinello, no, there is a file that is used to establish the login screen. [00:31] :) [00:31] RenatoSilva: yeah but doesnt really work too good... the icons stay on black background... maybe its my theme... [00:31] conb123, ah [00:31] Does anybody know how ubuntu disambiguates between multiple sources for the same package, i.e. which one to use? I have a local mirror, and i'm wondering if i NEED to put my local deb lines at the beginning, or if i can instead put them in sources.list.d/local.list ... [00:31] jrib, i just moved my /home to a different partition then i installed 9.10 and mounted the specified the new /home to mount during setup [00:32] pooky1: check hash of a downloaded file? SOme day I'll find out too [00:32] anyone having problems with flash with 64 bit version? [00:32] Lars_G: check lsb_release -a [00:32] Alan, tends to prever highest version [00:32] tony: what kinds? [00:32] MK13: I don't see why you would have permissions issues though [00:32] jrib: something has very obviously gone wrong during the install, my karmic is freezing constantly, I have no way to reinstall it, but I can get an occasional boot working [00:32] pooky1: it seems your theme, it looks nice here [00:32] Diddleha, will you do an upgrade or just reinstall? [00:32] Alan: apt's -t option... check out backports [00:32] tony, yes [00:32] Alan, you can select a package in synaptic and press ctrl+e to choose a version [00:32] RenatoSilva: lol.... if i dont find it soon im gonna f*** off and burn it anyway [00:32] How would i start etoile via xinit ? [00:32] can you describe your e2? [00:32] so I am trying to think of random ways to recover the broken install === Jubei is now known as Guest59682 [00:33] arand, http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8326264.stm [00:33] Sorinello, Sorry, not gdm, XDM. :-) [00:33] evening folks, [00:33] jrib, me either, which is why i am asking [00:33] tony http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8326264.stm [00:33] Ah another question... do 9.04 debs work on 9.10? When I upgraded it kept the 9.04 WINE install? o.O [00:33] daleharvey: if you believe the install did not complete successfully then do a fresh install [00:33] Sorinello, /etc/xdm/Xsetup [00:33] dksoba88: I have upgraded for some versions now, thought id just continue doing that :) [00:33] tanath: i'm on about the same version [00:33] MK13: You asked a different question... [00:33] daleharvey, delay, and keep updating? tends to work for me :P [00:33] jrib: I cant do a fresh install, because it never works [00:33] tanath: hence the "mirror" [00:33] MK13: presumably you are attempting to change permissions [00:33] e2: what does that have to do with flash issues? [00:33] Sorinello, ok, that's not there on karmic ... I'd have to look. [00:33] Hello happy people. [00:34] how can i downgrade ubuntu karmic to jaunty? [00:34] redtime: you can't === sun` is now known as fouadbajwa [00:34] !downgrade | redtime [00:34] redtime: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. [00:34] daleharvey: well I would debug *that* [00:34] Could someone pastebin me an ldd of /usr/bin/ldapsearch ? [00:34] there is a feature of Nautilus that I see while upgrading but I can'T figure out how to do it when the install is over , lavender colour text below icons in the nautilus window in icon mode, size of file and number of files in a folder , anyone know how to turn that on ? [00:34] MenZa: http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/5646/wowvm.png [00:34] pooky1: http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/5646/wowvm.png [00:34] Sorinello, which VM ? VMware or VB? [00:34] !upgrade [00:34] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [00:34] lstarnes: oh :( [00:34] lstarnes: http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/5646/wowvm.png [00:34] VMWare [00:34] daleharvey, have u tried running without changing then installing from there [00:34] Alan, but it may not use exactly the same version name. try ctrl+e anyway [00:34] NoelJB: VMWare === jamie is now known as Guest55080 [00:34] RenatoSilva: you can highlight multiple people on one message [00:34] is #ubuntu-server open now ? [00:34] jrib, do the permissions not need to be changed? i am just following these instructions [00:34] arand plays fine in 32bit with mediabuntu,,, not with 64bit [00:34] !home [00:34] Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome [00:34] lstarnes: my bcm4312 is not working on karmic :( [00:34] lstarnes: isn't it client stuff? [00:35] I don't seem to have an driver for my ati card anymore. As I understand, my card is not supported by ATI anymore, but on jaunty, compiz fusion worked fine. Can anyone point me to how I can install this on Karmic? [00:35] tanath: it will - my question is, given 2 servers with the exact same package, version, etc., will it prefer my local mirror over the remote mirror? [00:35] lstarnes: 9.10, codename karmic, no lsb modules available [00:35] jrib: I get exactly the same problems with installing from a cd / external drive / usb, the install freezes at some arbitrary point in time [00:35] Hi! I'm looking to expand my /usr partition--I have a GParted LiveCD, but I was wondering: under what conditions do I lose data? Can I move partitions around? Or only expand them? (I'd like to expand several, and assuming they're contiguous, I would guess that means I need to move several to make room) === fouadbajwa is now known as sun` [00:35] RenatoSilva: yes, but most clients can see someone's nick in places other than at the beginning [00:35] the cd usually very early [00:35] arand, sorry... i know tony btw...was the question he was asking [00:35] so far, if i put the deb lines for the local mirror at the beginning, it will [00:35] dksoba88: Let me know how it works when done. [00:35] MK13: I don't see anything there about changing permissions unless something goes wrong [00:35] sweetandy: hmm? [00:35] NoelJB: but I don;t think that's relevant what VM I am using ... [00:35] daleharvey: did you run "check the cd for defects"? [00:35] Alan, that i don't know [00:36] hm :( [00:36] lstarnes: ok [00:36] arand, you are running 64bit? [00:36] Alan, probably whichever is highest in the list of alternates you see when you press ctrl+e [00:36] jrib, it did go wrong, after installing ubuntu all my files in my /home/usrname directory had locks on them [00:36] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1304744 [00:36] i've been trying to configure the external monitor that's attached to my laptop, but haven't had any luck other than cloning the screen. however, after i ran xrandr, the external monitor extends the desktop, and this persists between reboots. [00:36] jrib: the iso md5'd correctly, anything attempting to check the disk dies [00:36] so hows the new ubuntu ? [00:36] this is great, but i haven't a clue why it works. any hints? [00:36] and there is no way all 3 mediums are broken [00:36] tanath: and what if i'm not using synaptic? [00:36] madsen: that shouldn't happen, no [00:36] argh [00:36] does anyone know the version of mplayer in ubuntu 9.10? [00:37] !info mplayer karmic | xtsuname [00:37] I tend to use aptitude... [00:37] MK13: that shouldn't happen, no [00:37] the cd very possibly, but not the external disk drive [00:37] aresnick, you can do pretty much anything you want but if you move the partition you will have to edit the fstab file to point to the new partition [00:37] Alan, i'm suggesting you use it to answer your question [00:37] does anyone know how to get the shutdown button all the way to the right? [00:37] xtsuname: mplayer (source: mplayer): movie player for Unix-like systems. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 2:1.0~rc3+svn20090426-1ubuntu10 (karmic), package size 2215 kB, installed size 4904 kB [00:37] jrib, what shouldn't happen? [00:37] Diddleha, yea np [00:37] lstarnes: hey, I jsut got a list of unsupported packages at least, which includes epiphany and pidgin, they will be suggested for removing after the upgrade process if I don't check universe repo. Better than nothing [00:37] RenatoSilva: thats nice FX, but beside being eyecandy... or use as alt-tab or screensaver i dont see why sorking on a cube, if it doesnt stay as a cube... [00:37] MK13: locks [00:37] anyone having battery problems [00:37] in karmic, screen in terminal has changed? I have to press enter to pass a messages screen and there is no menu, function keys don't work; what's the new deal? [00:37] thx lstarnes [00:37] but i tried from inside and it was funny ! [00:37] plitter, right click > move [00:37] pooky1: FX? [00:37] jrib, well it did... === bubba is now known as Guest24120 [00:37] RenatoSilva: effetcs* [00:37] mickster04: thats basically what I want, a 'fresh' install over this one [00:37] mickster04: yeah, my neighbors complain when I play the battery [00:37] MK13: anyway, what exactly have you run since then regarding permissions? [00:37] RenatoSilva: I think pidgin is still in main [00:37] Pelo: I just mean something like "move to the 'right' to make room"--I assume the partition would remain the same, no? [00:37] Alan, if all you have is CLI, then try 'apt-cash show packagename' and it'll prolly pick the first one listed [00:37] Pelo: i only get remove and about [00:38] * raid0 goodnight all [00:38] pooky1: doesn't stay as a cube? [00:38] Pelo: icon view, increase zoom === raid0 is now known as raid0ff [00:38] Or go to nautilus preferences, display, icon captions, an move the captions up one step (means they'll appear on lower zoom) [00:38] VCoolio: that functionality was in screen-profiles which doesn't seem to be install with screen anymore [00:38] Alan, sorry, 'apt-cache...' [00:38] I guess this room is right for the transition phase, but should people go to #ubuntu now that it's offitial? [00:38] jrib, terminal, nautilus, firefox [00:38] I'm wondering, would hardware raid involve Ubuntu at all, or is it irrelevant to the OS? [00:38] plitter, move the other stuff out of the way first [00:38] lstarnes: it is listed here [00:38] Lars_G, ? [00:38] I have my internet up on ubuntu finally but it doesn't show on the network and I cannot browse...please help [00:38] tanath: that still doesn't help - it only shows the available repo sections, not available mirrors... [00:38] jrib so, should i be concerned about the .gvfs since everything else works fine? [00:38] MK13: you got an error before. Did you not get it while running some command? [00:38] RenatoSilva: in gutsy it didnt.... well you couldnt type while viewing a cube... [00:38] lstarnes: hum no, just pidgin-otr [00:38] plitter, check to see if you donT' have a locked check box [00:38] Starcraftmazter: The kernel would need to recognize the raid controller, but beyound that, it's transparent to ubuntu [00:38] trism: ah right, will install that, thx [00:38] Yos: wicd beats network-manager [00:38] RenatoSilva: now 3d acceleration isnt supported on my laptop so having hard time playing around with compiz [00:39] daleharvey, well if u run the live disk, then run the installer off that, it normally works fine [00:39] Lars_G: would there be a list somewhere of supported controllers, or manufacturers that provide oss drivers? [00:39] tanath: i.e. jaunty-updates vs jaunty-security [00:39] pooky1: gutsy is OLD hehe [00:39] Alan, i have more than one package from different locations providing the package 'firefox' and when i run 'apt-cache show firefox' both are listed... [00:39] Starcraftmazter: for normal use that is. if you want to reconfigure, a very few raid controllers will have linux software, some a bios interface and some a windows only software [00:39] plitter: right click and select move [00:39] Hey guys, how is ext4 files ystem as of now? [00:39] aresnick, you'll need todo that from the live cd, but yo shoudlnT' lose anything [00:39] I tried network mananger, it doesn't list my ISP [00:39] e2: I'm using the 64bit prerelease, and for issues with unstable flash on 64bit I was going to recommend it. [00:39] Alan, in that case, i know security takes priority [00:39] Pelo: OK, and I won't need to edit fstab, right? [00:39] * Pelo never gets any helps [00:39] jrib, i got the error when running "chown -R usrname:usrname /home/usrname" [00:39] Starcraftmazter: I'd google for the model and linux [00:40] lstarnes: don't know what is pidgin-otr [00:40] aresnick, if the uuid of the partition remains the same no [00:40] RenatoSilva: thats the version that was released when i turned my back on windows... but hardy was already coming out the end of the month... and no more compiz for me =( [00:40] ProfOak, depends who you ask :P [00:40] ok thanks Lars_G [00:40] ProfOak: so far so good [00:40] aresnick, I'm assuming that /usr is already on a seperate partitons ? [00:40] Pelo: yep [00:40] !devede [00:40] Sorry, I don't know anything about devede [00:40] RenatoSilva: it's a plugin for OTR in pidgin. OTR is a chat encryption system [00:40] Pelo: what would cause the uuid to change? [00:40] pooky1: sorry could you start again, I don't know what you mean [00:40] hello [00:40] tony Pelo i get all amsn evolution, volume, ibus, network all the way to the right, and i dont know how to move them... [00:40] Pelo: Or go to nautilus preferences, display, icon captions, an move the captions up one step (means they'll appear on lower zoom) [00:40] jrib: do you have any suggestions where to go from here? im guessing recovering a half working install might work [00:40] lstarnes: ok [00:40] Last release, it wasn't encouraged to use ext4. [00:40] MK13: so why didn't you tell me that when I asked? Anyway, create a new user, check the permissions of .gvfs and make sure your user's permissions match [00:40] is anyone familiar with 'devede'? I asked it to make a 4.4GB iso for burning to a DVD from a .avi movie [00:40] RenatoSilva: yeah i figured out for the MD5.... and after 2nd download its full [00:41] aresnick, if the uuid stays the same there should not be any problem , I think you might end up , extending to the right and then in a second step resizing it from the left but whatever [00:41] and it has made a 2GB .sio [00:41] Diddleha, installing from USB... very nice to not use CD's IMHO [00:41] iso [00:41] daleharvey: have you tried the alternate install? [00:41] any one knows what is the best firewall for ubuntu? [00:41] arand, thats a worry... this link for example http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8326264.stm works fine in 32bit... not playing in 64bit with a new install etc.. [00:41] jrib, i had all that in the earlier chat [00:41] lstarnes: I'll talke a look at emphaty's support for IRC, if it's ok then I'll remove fudgin [00:41] <(* *)> [00:41] ProfOak, if you're concerned about data loss, you might wanna hold off a bit longer [00:41] dooglus: I know it's a spanish spelling for how dvd sounds [00:41] the image usb-creator made might be broken, but ive lost my ubuntu install now, can you make new images with osx? [00:41] leaf__: iptables. it's built into the kernel [00:41] dooglus: nothing else [00:41] jrib, and how do i do what you just said? [00:41] RenatoSilva: as far as irc support goes, xchat and irssi are the best [00:41] ok, so i have the 9.10 beta installed. How do i switch from beta to release? [00:41] Lars_G: thanks man. you rock. [00:41] dooglus how can i see/configure? [00:41] dooglus: :P [00:41] Pelo: OK; thanks! [00:41] dooglus, it tends to use what it needs only [00:41] !final xrandr [00:41] Sorry, I don't know anything about final xrandr [00:42] leaf__: there are frontends to iptables such as firestarter [00:42] miss... =( [00:42] MenZa: Where can I ask questions about general things about Ubuntu... like the history or things like that? [00:42] arand, thanks I'lll try that , [00:42] how am i supposed to do cron jobs with upstart? [00:42] !ubuntu [00:42] Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com [00:42] dooglus, i often find it smaller than estimated too [00:42] leaf__: there is also ufw and its graphical frontend, gufw [00:42] !final [00:42] If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Karmic. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [00:42] tanath: ok, fair enough. the picture quality is a bit crappy, but made the .avi was too [00:42] MK13: which step are you not sure how to do? [00:42] tanath: ok thanks, I'll just wait until it's the standard. [00:42] hi [00:42] tanath: that's still different repos, not mirrors of the same repo [00:42] e2: Hmm, xrandr if you are fully upgraded, you are in final [00:42] Is anyone having problems trying to get 9.10 to dual boot, with win7 installed first? [00:42] lstarnes i can go by command line? [00:42] plitter, the way to do it is with right click, don'T know why you are not getting it [00:42] arand, bound to be a simple explanation... not a huge issue.. and i can see there are lots more important issues at the moment... most youtubes/ flash working... [00:42] when you say compare the permissions [00:42] dooglus, well it can't make it magically better, so increasing size would do nothing without better source file, yes === Mike||gone is now known as Mike_lifeguard [00:42] I have installed 9.10 twice and my system will still only boot into Windows [00:42] MK13: ls -ld PATH_TO_FILE [00:42] i need help with my network.. i just got karmic installed and i have a acer laptop.. but network isnt working at all. neither wired or wireless.. can someone help me out? it seems like is detected but disabled [00:42] jrib, when you say compare the permissions [00:42] ProfOak, as am i [00:43] leaf__: iptables is command-line (see man iptables) [00:43] xrandr: just do an apt-get update && apt-get dist upgrade and you'll have the 'final' release [00:43] Will bad things happen if I install a package for 7.10 on a 7.04 system? [00:43] tanath: it doesn't disambiguate between "gb.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty main" and "helios jaunty main" [00:43] if you catch my drift [00:43] ProfOak, had FSes corrupt under ext4 [00:43] Sgeo: probably [00:43] * RenatoSilva thanks all [00:43] Bleh [00:43] jrib, and just make a random username? [00:43] arand, just installed clean from final.... [00:43] already up2date then [00:43] Sgeo: 7.10 and 7.04 are both out of date and unsupported [00:43] Sgeo: bad things will happen if you use 7.04 as it's unsupported anyway [00:43] dksoba88: Try #ubuntu-offtopic. [00:43] MK13: sure [00:43] lstarnes, I'm too lazy to upgrade a system I rarely use anymore anyway [00:43] e2: sorry, was talking to xrandr [00:43] xrandr: that's what I did - installed the beta, and update/dist-upgrade day by day [00:43] Sgeo: it will probably fail to install for dependency failure, and then if you force it, it'll probably fail to run, which on the case of a library can cause lots of damage [00:43] Sgeo, potentially, but usually not [00:43] lstarnes thanks pall [00:43] arand, thanks it worked, I would have looked forever for that [00:43] arand, np.. [00:44] someone please? [00:44] i need help with my network.. i just got karmic installed and i have a acer laptop.. but network isnt working at all. neither wired or wireless.. can someone help me out? it seems like is detected but disabled [00:44] * Pelo is off [00:44] Anyone know of any Dropbox like things that don't require installing stuff? [00:44] MidnightDevil: wired should be easy enough. did you try 'sudo ifup eth0'? [00:44] Wasn't the 9.10 update supposed to include Firefox 3.5.4? [00:44] Alan, if you need it to use a specific one, why don't you make that happen? [00:44] Pelo: when i right click on the symbols all the way to the right i get their options not the gui options, i followed tony advice about unlocking from panel and it worked but i only get it as far as the programs that take up the space all the way to the right [00:44] jrib, any clue what the permissions should be, i don't want to have to create a new user [00:44] bigfootbuilt: it includes firefox 3.5 [00:44] Sgeo: www.adrive.com works with std protocols like webdav and ftp [00:44] hey guys quick question [00:44] Any one knows how to run everest poker well? ive tryed wine, cedega etc but i cant put that run... [00:44] Lars_G, ty [00:44] Alan, otherwise, the implication is that you don't care, and it shouldn't matter [00:45] Sgeo: ubuntuone is installed by default in ubuntu... [00:45] MK13: no, I don't have an ubuntu system at hand. This is how you can solve the problem yourself [00:45] Im in a middle of installing a package with apt-get [00:45] arand, in 7.04? [00:45] dooglus when i type ifconfig .. i got lo only detected with the address 127... will it work? [00:45] tanath: because i have things like laptops that are sometimes inside my network, sometimes outside [00:45] Sgeo: ah, no. [00:45] Any one knows how to run everest poker well? ive tryed wine, cedega etc but i cant put that run... [00:45] MidnightDevil: you need more than just 'lo' to get online [00:45] us.archive.ubuntu.com is an alias for ftp.acc.umu.se. [00:45] i love poker [00:45] jrib, well, this is what i get anyway :( dr-x------ 2 usrname usrname 0 2009-10-29 19:16 /home/usrname/.gvfs [00:45] :P [00:45] isn't .se a different country? [00:45] Is anyone having problems trying to get 9.10 to dual boot, with win7 installed first? [00:45] dksoba88: Yeah, cd's are less smooth. === sarah is now known as Guest69256 [00:45] MK13: great, compare that to a fresh new user's [00:45] MidnightDevil: sounds to me like your network card drivers aren't being detected / installed [00:45] Im in a middle of installing a package with apt-get , I cannot proceed since I need a prior package installed and I get 'dpkg was interrupted' but 'configure' won't work since I cannot continue the configuration , what to do ? [00:45] I want them to have external and internal mirrors available, such that it uses the local one when inside the network, but fails over to the external one when it can't reach the internal one [00:45] leaf__: have you tried pokerTH? [00:45] dooglus i know... and that's the problem, i got wireless and ethernet detected on lspci.. but i got nothing on ifconfig or iwconfig [00:45] MidnightDevil: I always end up uninstalling the network-manager package and configuring everything manually, but that's probably frowned upon [00:46] vladik: "configure"? what's "configure"? [00:46] Alan, you could comment out certain repo lines depending on context (where you are) [00:46] tony i want to play for real money [00:46] jrib, do i need to run the command as the new user on it's own .gvfs? [00:46] vladik: doesn't it say something about running dpkg-reconfigure? [00:46] Diddleha, yea plus you have to buy it, use it once, and then it's a coaster [00:46] MK13: of course [00:46] anyone know why my system doesn't notice there is a distro upgrade? [00:46] vladik: normally dpkg-reconfigure *package_name* is what you want [00:46] tanath: i don't want to comment/uncomment 5 times a day.... [00:46] Alan, and would it not just use whichever was available? === Ed54_ is now known as Ed54 [00:46] Hello [00:46] leaf__ ok, that won't work then [00:46] I need some SSH help, I upgraded to KK, copied over my sshd_config and iptable rules. Did iptables-restore and ./init.d/ssh restart and now I am getting "Read from socket failed: Connection reset by peer" HELP [00:46] tanath: but both are available when inside the network... [00:46] TecnoBrat , I cannot configure that package until I install another one , I cannot install that one cause it's stuck. [00:46] mikechelen: have you been using RC/Beta? it might be up to date already [00:46] dksoba88: Aha!... but "RW" is ok. Slow though. [00:47] hello... [00:47] Alan: abuse a hosts file then [00:47] Alan, heh, in that case, just update repos and it'll use whatever is available [00:47] dooglus i got a "ignoring unknow interface eth=eth. ... what can i do? :( [00:47] Lars_G, only jaunty-updates and -backports [00:47] Alan, then it shouldn't matter inside the network [00:47] tony yeah right lool === lzy_ is now known as lzy [00:47] vladik: ... dpkg-reconfigure *package_name* the BROKEN package, not the one you are trying to install. [00:47] vladik: have you tried "sudo apt-get -f install" [00:47] this is my first time here and.. hmm.. let me see if people have answer for my question. [00:47] Alan, outside the network, it'll use the only one available [00:47] tanath: yes it should - quick vs. slow [00:47] how do i unmount an extra partition mounted to / [00:47] dooglus the previous release was working fine.. do u think if i install the 9.04 and i dist-upgrade will work ? [00:47] Alan, ah [00:47] mikechelen: if you're using one of the gui package managers, you have to update all packages before it'll show the option to dist upgrade [00:48] Diddleha, yea... plus they go bad because of scratches. [00:48] leaf__ have you tried pokerstars? [00:48] vladik: it'll run the configure again on the package, and should "unstick" it [00:48] i've got Dell M1330 and I just installed ubuntu 9.10, and i can't get wireless working, does anybody have answer for this? [00:48] TecnoBrat, that's what I am doing. it asks me for the location of java binary, but since java isn't installed yet its just stuck [00:48] Alan, well, do you really need to be updating repos 5 times a day? [00:48] tanath: 300MB of updates over gigabit is better than pulling it down an ADSL connection... [00:48] I am upgrading to Karmic. My Internet connection is a bit slow at the moment. What happens if I click Cancel in the upgrade dialogue box if it is at the "Getting new packages" stage? [00:48] tony humm no but ive tryed bwin too and doesnt work.. [00:48] dksoba88: Yeah, that blows. [00:48] ?? is there a certain burning speed that i should use for burning Karmic ?? [00:48] tanath: if i'm installing stuff from many locations, maybe, yes [00:48] Wireless problems anybody? [00:48] Lars_G, ah that must be it, there is one package that won't upgrade, happens with command line apt-get as well [00:48] how do i unmount an extra partition mounted to / [00:48] vladik: gonna have to force install it then [00:48] woddf2: you should be fine, apt usually downloads then does stuff [00:48] lstarnes: massive channel is massive. :P [00:48] pooky1: 2 or 4 [00:48] pooky: Full speed ahead :) [00:49] jrib, should a guest account work? [00:49] Bwyard: how can you even have an "extra" partition mounted there? [00:49] leaf__ I've used pokerstars in the past but not recently...have you tried and web based sites? [00:49] TecnoBrat, trying [00:49] MK13: I don't know [00:49] mage__: What happens if I reboot after canceling? [00:49] ok.. i guess i won't be getting help here... === KiRiLoS_ is now known as KiRiLoS [00:49] with 9.10...it installed grub2. how do i *re*install grub2 now that i've overwritten the mbr with another OS's loader. I know how to do grub1, but grub2 seems like a whole new ballgame [00:49] woddf2: its not doing the upgrade yet [00:49] Alan, i'm not sure there's a particularly easy solution for you other than choosing on a case-by-case basis [00:49] Anyone else experiencing audio issues in pidgin and totem? If i play a short wav file it plays really fast however after that it'll play correctly unless i wait a while before retrying [00:49] RayC: whats the matter? [00:49] toni yeah web based work but is not the same thing [00:49] Wireless problem [00:49] Diddleha: i had problem with old distro burned too fast or xbox games i did backup.... at full speed [00:49] TecnoBrat , tried it still asks me to run 'dpkg-reconfigure' but that doesn't help [00:49] mage__: Does it revert the apt sources? [00:49] thats why i ask... [00:49] RayC: pm me [00:49] woddf2: I'm not sure when it changes the apt sources [00:49] um i do not know but i do [00:50] tanath: I already have a solution that works fine, but it's ugly - i'm trying to find out if the ugly can be avoided [00:50] Diddleha, okay... booting 9.10 [00:50] mage__: Will it be unbootable? [00:50] no [00:50] leaf__ that's the extent of my poker expertise, good luck [00:50] vladik: try removing them both then, and install again [00:50] Alan, which is? [00:50] TecnoBrat, I can't finish configuring since I don't have java installed yet (I installed them in the wrong order by mistake) [00:50] pooky1: There should be no such issues unless its defect hardware. [00:50] Thanks [00:50] RayC: have you looked under system>hardware driver (third party and non-free driver) [00:50] vladik: force removing I mean [00:50] tanath: at the moment, i have my local mirror lines at the beginning - when it tries to fetch packages, it stops trying the local one if the first fetch from it failed, and continues with the remote one [00:50] i have thge original 10g partition mounted there then a 70 gig partition as well [00:50] TecnoBrat, I can't remove anything because the dpkg isn't finished yet, it just tells me to finish it first (even when trying to apt-get remove it) [00:50] Diddleha: old gateway laptop thats open 24/7 [00:51] tanath: what I'm trying to find out is if precedence is order-dependent [00:51] jrib, it's MK13, here is the ls -ld for the guest : drwx------ 2 guest guest 40 2009-10-29 19:47 /tmp/guest-home.vMAIgA/.gvfs [00:51] toni thanks. ive alredy contact everest poker to incentive the development in open source [00:51] tanath: I want to have the SAME effect if i just drop a foo.list file in sources.list.d/ [00:51] dksoba88: See what versions of gadmin-proftpd and gadmin-rsync are in it. [00:51] I realized something... this channel is like.. the epitome of IRC [00:51] toni its a huge comunity using linux alredy [00:51] guest__: so you should make your user's .gvfs writable by the owner [00:51] Lars_G, "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" still isn't doing anything, even with all packages updated [00:51] about 5 people talking [00:51] Sup guys, my friend has an Acer Aspire One, I'm trying to load Ubuntu on it, tried 9.04 and 9.10, same error happens.. Wireless doesn't work unless I first "modprobe ath5k" .. What do I need to do to fix it? [00:51] and the rest just there "staring" :P [00:51] MidnightDevil: no, I don't think that would help [00:51] pooky1 :) [00:51] tanath: but I can't seem to find out if apt cares about the order of the lines in sources.list or whatever... [00:51] ill go the slowest i can (10) [00:51] jrib how should i do that? (respond back to MK13) [00:52] Alan, mm, well personally i avoid useing sources.list.d/ in favor of centralizing repos in sources.list file [00:52] mikechelen: that on the command line will do nothing if you've not changed your repos to the newer version ones and done an apt-get update first [00:52] I just installed karmic (yay) but the grub2 menu didn't show. That's fine, there is nothing to choose atm, but is that what grub thinks too? Will it show when a kernel update is installed? Or does it default to not showing and do I need to hold on boot? [00:52] is ubuntu 9.10 finally worth going full 64-bit mode, or that still sucks, and i386 is the recommended way for normal users ? [00:52] MK13: chmod o+w ~/.gvfs [00:52] Alan, i don't know myself, sorry [00:52] so can someone help me [00:52] DB42: 64 > 32 [00:52] Sorinello, no really, but I believe that one issue might be what the virtual display driver reports as the available resolutions. [00:52] DB42: i've been using 64 bit ubuntu for years now... [00:52] Lars_G, oh, why do the repos have to be changed? thought it would notice the distribution upgrade automatically [00:52] Ben64, in linux 64 used to be a pain in the ass [00:52] pooky1: Reminds me of an old "Kiss" burner and MrData Cd's :) [00:52] -------------------------------------------UBUNTU FOREVER------------------------------------------- [00:52] :D [00:53] VCoolio: it showed up for me by default on this clean install [00:53] DB42: maybe a long time ago, but I've been doing it since I got my AMD64 3200+ [00:53] DB42: depends on specific apps like flash and commercial software that isn't in 64bit for any linux distro [00:53] flash has 64bit now [00:53] forever is a long time [00:53] so everything is gravy [00:53] DB42: im wondering that too... but i often see that 64bit application tends to be upgraded after 32bit clones...

[00:53] hi [00:53] trism: do you have dual boot? [00:53] Sorinello, with karmic and Workstation 7, for me it comes up with a low resolution (e.g., login) and I have to raise it to what I want.

[00:54] vladik: try this - "apt-get -f install" without a package name, and also try "apt-get -f remove" also without a package name [00:54] NoelJB: thanks ...

I've created the USBstick manually with syslinux etc, and the same problem happened. 'No common CD-ROM drive was detected' and the Ubuntu installer wouldn't go beyond that step.

I am just trying to figure out how the heck to locate the default config file and etc [01:18] BassGuy: your computer should ask you to boot off cd/dvd and hit a key, else it continues to boot windows. [01:18] BassGuy if you're running from the live cd the installer should give you an option to use part of the hard drive for Ubuntu, and set up a dual boot system. [01:18] BassGuy Where you choose which OS (Ubuntu or Windoze) to run on startup. [01:18] BassGuy It should give you a little slider to select how much of the hard drive you want to give to each OS.

[01:22] Oh, right. Empathy is the new IM client. [01:22] Turns out karmic-alternate-amd64.iso (last daily build dated 10/27) was the release version? The hash checksums match. [01:22] hi friends [01:22] Diddleha: neither works [01:22] the ubuntu is great [01:22] stone1343, thanks i found it 9.10 is awsome [01:22] bbl...

[01:23] Is there a decent speed mirror to use for the updates? [01:23] FiReSTaRT: speaking of TV, I can't get any audio from MythTV. Nothing from live TV and nothing from programs previously recorded with MythTV [01:23] does anyone here get a false positive bad sector warning in palimpsest? [01:23] Hi there. I need help. I have 2 PC with Ubuntu 9.10. How can I make LAN Network in Ubuntu. [01:23] Diddleha: it resolves the name but does not get there [01:23] I have an ION 330 based karmic + mtythv setup... is there a way to monitor temperatures remotely ? [01:23] Will the software in the Resource Center that is "not available in the current data" eventually become downloadable? I want the real Xchat, not the Xchat GNOME replacement.

[01:24] Plugh: try plugging in pc speakers.. that did the trick when i was playing movies on my tv :P [01:24] supertyco: Setup your clients networking again. [01:24] Diddleha: I used DHCP [01:24] plug each pc into ports on a router, hook the router to your dsl/cable modem or whatever [01:24] Anyone know of a decent mirror for the updates? Just grabbing the nVidia driver is taking minutes [01:24] as opposed to wiping and reinstalling [01:24] i am glad that Karmic came out well - because Dedian is backing ChromeOS as well [01:24] Plugh: well i'm off to sleep.. good luck with the sound issues :) [01:24] Royall: the torrent is really fast ATM [01:24] The broadcom proprietary driver is installed and shows up under 'hardware drivers' [01:24] enjo451, do you have a dell notebook?

[01:25] my smb wont work [01:25] Diddleha: yes behind a cisco asa 5510 [01:25] FiReSTaRT: I have speakers plugged in. I've checked audio output that is selected. All my other programs with sound work. No problem with sound from totem or gmplayer. [01:25] royall ah oki sry [01:25] I found a thread from a week or two ago about installing 'bcmwl-kernel-source'... but that's already installed [01:25] supertyco: /etc/resolv.conf is ok ? [01:25] FiReSTaRT: I'm going to rebuild mythtv without support for pulseaudio and see if that makes a difference. [01:25] Royall: if you get a response pls pm me [01:25] Diddleha: yes [01:25] i was gonna tell u to install it [01:25] supertyco: proxy settings ok ? [01:25] So I was doing my upgrade via SSH and got disconnected in the middle when a package was prompting me for information. Now what am I supposed to do? [01:26] Diddleha: no proxy [01:26] hey guys, am I the only one experiencing problems with installing Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix? from the boot I select Install Ubuntu Netbook Remix, I see the ubuntu logo and then my screen goes black (I have an Aspire One) [01:26] When I try to rerun do-release-upgrade, it just says to me "Unable to get exclusive lock" [01:26] Will the software in the Resource Center that is "not available in the current data" eventually become downloadable?

Even odder is that the list of package changes on the screen right afterwards doesn't list the same packages for removal (actually it does for bluez but I think bluez actually has been replaced).

[01:45] it's an old ibm thinkpad/pentium 3/900mhz/512mb ram if that makes a difference [01:45] DB42, idk, works fine for me, try the magnet link? magnet:?xt=urn:btih:IVXWYWLKDSXTW5AOWWKYFCLCLNFFEBBJ [01:45] randal maybe so, i haven't tried yet [01:46] SeaPhor, That must be it! where is that ? [01:46] lstarnes one week trying, thinking the problem was in Ubuntu, and the problem was in BIOS [01:46] huahuahuahuhua [01:46] MiLLo, it's here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#alternate [01:46] SeaPhor, wait ... It is enabled :( [01:46] there were also 0 errors in dmesg [01:46] thanks mikechelen [01:46] mickster04 this video issue is annoying [01:47] I'm starting to think, that it'll be better to fall back to 9.04 :-| [01:47] lstarnes but the time is wrong, here now is 23:48 o´clock and my notebook is 21:47 [01:47] it's an ibm thinkpad/pentium 3/900mhz/512mb ram - is that capable of the latest ubuntu by the way - i coudln't find any system specs when I looked before [01:47] Hey.. my friend has an Acer Aspire One, I'm trying to load Ubuntu UNR on it, tried 9.04 and 9.10, same error happens.. Wireless doesn't work unless I first "modprobe ath5k" .. What do I need to do to fix it? [01:47] is there anyway to downgrade after upgrading ? [01:47] Andisu: which time zone are you in? [01:47] randal you're right it doesn't seem possible [01:47] Is this still too hectic for help? [01:47] Whitor, try this.. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade sources.list [01:47] johnboker: downgrades are not supported [01:47] johnboker: no [01:47] MiLLo: Karmic needs minimum 1GB of RAM and a 1GHz CPU [01:47] nope [01:47] great.. [01:47] ben64 i'm on an AAO, no problems [01:48] I dont want to tempt fate but ive been running for about an hour now with no crashes!! [01:48] guys - I have two 250gb drives that karmic is reading as "nvidia_raid_member" and I cannot mount them. In my old install with jaunty they mounted by fstab. But I cant mount them now. I cant even view the contents. wtf? [01:48] stone1343, i like it but the thing i do not like is that you cant switch between them and when omething is maximized you cant see the window decoration [01:48] randal, yeah there used to be "switch to dsktop mode" which karmic doesnt seem to have, so i assume it doesnt [01:48] stone1343: what version? does the wireless light/switch work? [01:48] SeaPhor, thanks, trying [01:48] randal, u can ficx that with gconf editor [01:48] MiLLo, try Xubuntu, it uses the lightweight XFCE desktop manager [01:48] ben64 karmic and yes the light works [01:48] mickster04, how do i do that [01:48] i'll try a fresh install of 9.10 then just do another clean install of 9.04 if that doesnt work [01:48] SeaPhor, nope, that didn't do it [01:49] but i can´t choose screen resolution 1024x728 [01:49] so i just updated from 8.10 to 9.04, how nessacary is it to reboot? [01:49] *blinks* also why did it remove mpd x.x [01:49] stone1343: how did you install it? worked right out of the box? upgrade from 9.04? [01:49] johnboker: I did a fresh install of 9.10 and never had problems [01:49] guys am freakin out, why my 9.10 cd wont boot on my Toshiba Satellite ????? am 100% sure its from ubuntu [01:49] mnaines i did an upgrade and am having a lot of issues [01:49] Black_Phantom: try the alt cd as well [01:49] ben64 live usb, 'run without changing system', connect to wireless, install [01:50] mickster04, is that in terminal or something [01:50] Black_Phantom, will it boot on another computer ? [01:50] heylala I did [01:50] johnboker: That is why I am not recommending the upgrade. I always recommend a clean install. [01:50] what happened to ubuntus fancy screen? [01:50] guys - I have two 250gb drives that karmic is reading as "nvidia_raid_member" and I cannot mount them. In my old install with jaunty they mounted by fstab. But I cant mount them now. I cant even view the contents. wtf? [01:50] ben64 fresh install [01:50] Whitor yeah man [01:50] can someone tell me why my screensaver doesn't display when i lock my screen? [01:50] randal yeah [01:50] I quite liked that [01:50] Will the software in the "Software Center" that's marked as "not available in the current data" soon become available for download? [01:50] randal pm me [01:50] Whitor, look at System>Admin..>software sources,,, look at each tab [01:50] Black_Phantom: and your cd drive is at the top of your boot order yes? [01:50] mnaines in 5 minutes i'll have the cd to install, i'll let you know how it goes [01:50] well wth, i guess i need to try re-install [01:50] Does anyone know how to install GDM themes in 9.10? Going to System->Administration->Login Screen doesn't seem to work. [01:50] Just installed 9.10 remix on Acer Apire One 751h. Its sooooo slow. Does anyone know what to do? [01:51] mikewhere do you get the magnet link from ? [01:51] johnboker: It worked fine for me, so I do not think you will have any problems. [01:51] !upgrade [01:51] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [01:51] mnaines: and you aren't getting those annoying messages, when trying to logout/shutdown? [01:51] heylala I get to choose when I press F12 from which drive I want to boot from, I click CD/DVD but it doesnt detect while it does for other cds ( including other ubuntu versions ) [01:51] Damdempsel: gdm was rewritten, it doesn't support theme changing yet === dsbrand is now known as dave_atl [01:51] where to find cd checksum of the iso? [01:51] Ok, thanks. [01:51] braintorch: No, I am not. [01:51] ben64 unfortunately i'm not techie to help u debug it [01:51] wow the update servers are super slow with everyone upgrading to 9.10 [01:51] are this ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64 karmic compatibles? [01:51] mnaines: lucky [01:51] please help? [01:51] braintorch: It is because I did a clean install [01:52] How do I make a USB stick with the 11.2 RC? [01:52] stone1343: that's fine. good to know someone else with this netbook has it working [01:52] Black_Phantom: and it spins up and then doesn't boot? [01:52] I'm upgrading to Karmic; in the process, it gave me a list of packages that are no longer supported. Some of these, like gcc 4.3, I'm guessing are due to newer versions' availability. Is that the case for all of them? Or is Canonical dropping support for major functionality? [01:52] braintorch: If you watch the conversations in this room long enough, you will see why I recommend a clean install [01:52] stone1343: btw, UNR or regular Ubuntu? [01:52] i get this error when i try to update my sources.list http://paste.ubuntu.com/304709/ [01:52] heylala, yes then it switched to LAN booting then goes back to HDD [01:52] ben64 working and loving it! UNR [01:52] Recursive: That would be evil. Gcc'll still be around. === andorin is now known as Andorin [01:52] cool, thx for the info [01:52] Nevermind, wrong channel [01:52] ben64 goodluck [01:52] in 9.10 is there a menu.lst? [01:52] Recursive: I just asked the same thing. I had one upgrade that borked my system. I'm taking a chance and doing it again [01:52] Recursive: they're just all packages you no longer need. [01:53] sweetandy, I know that, I'm wondering what's the meaning of all the other packages [01:53] Whitor, did u run the update mgr after doing the upgrade of sources ? [01:53] Will the software in the "Software Center" that's marked as "not available in the current data" soon become available for download? [01:53] mnaines: i'm too. And when I upgraded from 9.04 to beta there wasn't those messages [01:53] netrat: who might have guessed!? use torrents! [01:53] Recursive: they're stuff that 'apt-get autoremove' would remove if you ran it [01:53] dooglus, OK thanks [01:53] SeaPhor, yeah, thats where I looked, they are indeed enabled [01:53] dksoba88, nmope [01:53] dksoba88, nope [01:53] aight im bouncing good night or day guys and gals !

[01:54] Whitor, look at System>Admin..>Hardware Drivers [01:54] litehedded cuz locking the screen isn't the same as starting the screensaver [01:54] dksoba88, the grub websote has loads of info regarding grub 2 [01:54] mickster04, I found some 10_linux 00_header... etc files but they don't really seem to be intuitive [01:54] corden: depends on the architecture and whether it's the desktop, netbook, etc. version [01:54] Black_Phantom: No actually. Try searching with your model number for any info. [01:54] corden: Can you not find them yourself? It really isn't that hard! [01:54] SeaPhor, empty [01:54] Strange, it's giving me a bunch of gui glitches [01:54] when i locked the screen in the past the screensaver would come on [01:54] Anyone know how to move the notifications (libnotify?) in 9.10? [01:54] litehedded you need to wait for the screensave to come on [01:55] http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/file?info_hash=EolYj%1C%AF%3Bt%0E%B5%95%82%89b%5BJR%04%29 <-- why isn't this torrent working for me ? utorrent says it's an invalid file (ubuntu-9.10-dvd-amd64.iso) is there another link for that .torrent ?

To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [02:04] xdemo: Master Boot Record [02:04] jayrox, you using windows now? [02:04] !lts [02:04] LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [02:04] im not sure [02:04] mickster04, thats whats driving me insane ;/ [02:04] How come when I put my flash drive in my PC while on Ubuntu, Ubuntu never reads it? [02:04] egaudet: sun-java6-bin maybe? [02:04] CopyWriter, long term support [02:04] mickster04, do u think updating the BIOS might help ? [02:05] no i have 2 laptops. one is my mini 9 using 9.04 unr. the other is windows based [02:05] CopyWriter, the idea behind LTS is that some people don't have the time/resources to upgrade their install every 6 months [02:05] dooglus, nope [02:05] jayrox i'm using ubuntu, i use USB Startup Disk Creator [02:05] does it use the same software like in a stable branch [02:05] egaudet: sun-java6-jdk then? [02:05] Black_Phantom, maybe, but seeing as the most revent thing that worked was the cd id argue that the laptop is not playing fair [02:05] how did u use it? please help [02:05] well, if i copy my current grub section, for booting windows... if karmic doesnt find vista, can i just add the few lines to the grub config? [02:05] CopyWriter, yeah, it's just that it will get out of date; upgrades will only improve stability and not add features [02:05] mickster04, true [02:05] mostly [02:05] mnaines The graphical install with the cd has the whitescreen problem i've been experiencing too [02:06] ok [02:06] got it [02:06] thanks guys [02:06] xdemo: When people want to dual-boot, I recommend only plugging in one drive at a time when installing the operating systems. Plug in one drive, install Windows, unplug that and plug in the second drive then install Ubuntu, then plug in the first drive. This way, both of them will have their own master boot record. Grub will see that and ask you which drive to boot into at startup. [02:06] I'm seriously looking forward to 10.04 LTS because so much progress has been made since '08 [02:06] so i need help i am cconfused when trying to download adobe flash player [02:06] What should I do with this Warty Warthog machine? [02:06] tianna: are you using the flashplugin-nonfree package? [02:06] sun-java6-jdk wants to install 6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04, which errors. I'm using 9.10 [02:06] is it possible to choose a repository before or during installation? i'm using the alternate disc.

[02:07] Yay ~800 kb/s down from package server, thanks dooglus [02:07] *release [02:07] mnaines, couldn't you just switch the boot order in the bios before each install? === PC|Away is now known as PacketCollision [02:07] Recursive: you're very welcome [02:07] ok i think i found out what i was doing wrong thanx though [02:07] see thats the problem i dont kow whta that is [02:07] tianna: look in system > administration > synaptic package manager [02:07] where is synaptic first of all [02:07] Recursive: that server may be a little behind the *.ubuntu.com ones, but it's worth it for the extra speed [02:07] anybody getting odd battery alert and info problems? [02:07] qwyeth: This way is better because you don't need to change the BIOS settings at all, and I do not recommend changing BIOS settings unless you know what you're doing. [02:07] tianna: search for flashplugin-nonfree [02:07] tianna: in system > administration menu [02:07] I need assistance with flash as well. [02:08] tianna: right-click on it, mark for installation, then apply changes [02:08] lstarnes: tianna can't find 'synaptic' [02:08] qwyeth: Plus, this way, if one drive fails, you can still boot up and recover the data off the other drive [02:08] I know this sounds weird, but my friends and I play HabboHotel at our work... in out free time of course, and it's laggy for me on my Acer Aspire One. [02:08] mnaines, see, I'm the opposite; I would rather my users not be pulling around cables unless they knew what they were doing :D [02:08] i caznt its not in system [02:08] dooglus: I pointed to its exact location [02:08] dooglus: oh [02:08] Any suggestions? [02:09] qwyeth: Hardware is a lot harder for a beginner user to mess up than firmware and software are [02:09] I've tried converting back to the F9 drivers, r48 and the other one. [02:09] lstarnes: so I see - it's hard keeping up when it's scrolling this fast... [02:09] I'm current on SwiftFox which seems to make browsing easier, but no affect on Flash. [02:09] QUESTION - I have 4 drives in my system. I did a manual partitioning. I set up my first 2 drives just fine. My 2nd two I left alone to deal with later. I DID NOT FORMAT THEM. The file system becamecorrupt, according to GParted. Why in the world did installing 9.10 corrupt the file system on 2 of my 4 drives when I didn't make any settings changeds to those drives? [02:09] what is /bin /sh [02:10] mnaines, it's also a lot less convenient when the user *does* mess it up [02:10] tianna: /bin/sh is a command shell [02:10] tianna: /bin/sh is a shell or command line [02:10] ok it says it need this [02:10] can i post screenshot links in here? [02:10] tianna: but you shouldn't need to know that. why do you ask? [02:10] Roasted : Are they setup on a RAID? [02:10] but what command [02:10] tianna: it should be part of an ubuntu install [02:10] it told me that [02:10] qwyeth: Yes, but guys like me who are hardware gurus can help them so that doesn't happen [02:10] about ready to just install windows 7 [02:10] tianna: /bin/sh [02:10] tianna: it's like the "DOS Prompt" (cmd.txt) thing on windows [02:10] it is for adobe install packages [02:10] yes i know [02:10] I'm having a weird issue: I am running ubuntu J on my home desktop computer. I am the only user set up on the computer. Earlier today, I tried to open a large pdf file (in adobe reader) on my relatively old computer. This took a long time and slowed things down immensely. I ended up having to restart the computer by turning off and on the power bar. Here's where things get weird: now, after starting up, the syst [02:10] em runs fine. After a few minutes though, the system slows down immensely. When I try to restart properly, it asks me for my administrative password since it says 'another user is logged in' (even though I am the only user on the computer). This happens each time I restart the computer. What the fuck is going on? [02:10] tianna: don't use adobe's installer [02:10] you have /bin/sh already [02:10] seth__: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [02:10] ok [02:10] Flash just doesn't work well at all on Linux.. so yeah. [02:11] tianna: use sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [02:11] darckengel - No, theyre not. Which confuses me because sudo blkid says nvidia-raid-member. I have no idea why.... [02:11] I'm having an issue in trying to install ubuntu 9.10 as it says not enough room on /boot. I went into Synaptics and removed all the extra kernel headers anything I can do to increase space on /boot ? === sabayonweb_48723 is now known as abortoman [02:11] where do i start? [02:11] !slow [02:11] The Ubuntu repositories and ISO mirrors are currently under heavy load. Please consider using !torrents to download ISO images, and be patient with APT updates. Also, try changing !mirrors [02:11] Darckengel: it works pretty well with the official linux version [02:11] johnboker, its not as bad as vista [02:11] tianna: type that in a terminal [02:11] where though durlin [02:11] http://i35.tinypic.com/4g24vo.png /dev/sda3 is my current 9.04 , and i need to know, when i install karmic... can i just simply format sda3 to ext4 and install karmic in the empty space? [02:11] mickster04 yeah, i have windows 7 at work and like it [02:11] why am I asked for password while opening my drives in Places bar? [02:11] tianna: applications > accessories > terminal === PacketCollision is now known as PC|Away [02:12] xdemo: I did that and had no problems [02:12] Flash is epic slow for me, even though I've already tried all the work arounds and I'm running Xubuntu. [02:12] how can I swith it off? [02:12] query ubotto [02:12] Lint: it might require root/superuser permissions [02:12] lstarnes, which version would that be? [02:12] Lint, cos to mount them u have to have permission [02:12] ok, so windows will automatically be detected on grub2? [02:12] qwyeth: which version of what? [02:12] Anyone able to help me? This issue is really screwing me over right now [02:12] xdemo, in theory [02:12] xdemo: Um...Only if you dual-boot the way I told you earlier [02:12] ok thankyou. but if it isnt, i can manually add a grub entry for it though? [02:12] so i type the sudo thing in here [02:13] tianna: in the teeminal window [02:13] *terminal [02:13] lstarnes, you mean flash works well in karmic? mine works after an upgrade, but my clean install hasn't been so clean with flash [02:13] in Hardy I've been not asked for it. Why the hell it's broken now? [02:13] qwyeth: if you're asking which version of flash I am using, I am using adobe's official 32-bit build of flash 10 for linux through ndiswrapper [02:13] xdemo: Yes, but I do not know anything about GRUB so I cannot help you with the entries [02:13] Does anyone know how to get jar binary or other jar extraction in 9.10 [02:13] Lint: what are you using now?

[02:14] lstarnes, would you please stop trolling please? [02:14] sudo flashplugion-nonfree the one you gave me earlier word for word though [02:14] LinuX2half: I would recommend doing a clean install, not an upgrade. There are too many issues with upgrading. [02:14] When the program is fetching packages the program closed saying that the upgrade can't be installed [02:14] Lint: that is not trolling [02:14] seth__: do you have adobe reader still running? [02:14] hey guys, am I the only one experiencing problems with installing Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix? from the boot, I select Install Ubuntu Netbook Remix, I see the ubuntu logo and then my screen goes black (I have an Aspire One) [02:14] juststopedforcho : Try Xubuntu. [02:15] mnaines: clean install? [02:15] XFCE is way faster than GNOME, although less customizable. [02:15] doesn't look like it... unless it is being run by some 'other user' [02:15] Hy everibody! [02:15] Lint: does it look like the normal "run as admin" applet? [02:15] now it says it is not allowed to execute as a root on local host [02:15] LinuX2half, that means making an install disk and reinstalling Ubuntu [02:15] LinuX2half: Meaning delete 9.04, reformat into ext4 and install 9.10 [02:15] what's the fastest desktop environment? xfce4? fluxbox? what? [02:15] seth__: check with ps ax | grep acro [02:15] well the upgrade is nice but the sound driver sounds a bit crappy [02:15] XFCE4 [02:16] it's called 'Authorization required' and it's asking for my user password [02:16] i'd say fluxbox dooglus [02:16] I have a strange problem, but maybe I'm just stupid... [02:16] dooglus, there are many different DE's out there [02:16] Recursive: I know, but which is fastest? [02:16] all with varying speed's/usabilities [02:16] Sorry. I'm a relative beginner. What does that mean exactly/how do I do that [02:16] dooglus, fluxbox is very fast, but xmonad is probably faster [02:16] Recursive: on a low RAM box [02:16] hans: go for it :) [02:16] how do i access my files through linux to get them from windows? [02:16] dooglus: xfce, fluxbox, openbox, awesome, etc. [02:16] I cannot answer any questions about DE speed because I have too much RAM on a quad-core machine to get an accurate measurement of speed [02:16] is anyone else having issues downloading apps on 9.10? [02:16] is there a channel here that help people on logic questions? [02:16] man the mirrors are slllooowww [02:16] Delete 9.04? How do I even delete it? [02:16] I don't know why but it appears that downloads are really slow [02:16] dooglus, when you get down to DEs that are that small and trim, you start giving up major features in favor of speed [02:17] come on, magic 2111 [02:17] seme: possibly the servers are busy with all the installs? [02:17] LinuX2half, sudo rm -rf / [02:17] There will be no operating system [02:17] seme: the mirrors are being slow right not due to hundreds of users installing ubuntu 9.10 [02:17] LinuX2half: Download the 9.10 ISO then boot from the CD and install that way [02:17] !danger [02:17] DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! [02:17] LinuX2half, use gparted in liveCD mode, if you want to keep existing partitions [02:17] seth__: see pm [02:17] qwyeth: I don't really want major features. I just want to be able to run a web browser & emacs quickly [02:17] qwyeth: and switch between them [02:17] ? [02:17] hey guys, am I the only one experiencing problems with installing Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix? from the boot, I select Install Ubuntu Netbook Remix, I see the ubuntu logo and then my screen goes black (I have an Aspire One) [02:17] no help [02:18] tianna: use sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [02:18] tianna: you can use the ntfs-3g package to mount windows drives [02:18] ok i did it is not allowed on a root [02:18] I wonder if anyone can tell me a way to get the photos off my Sony Erisson phone onto my ubuntu 9.10 laptop? [02:18] what does that mean [02:18] dooglus, go with something like openbox or something like that [02:18] dooglus: fluxbox would suit your needs, but xfce would probably be more comfortable for a casual user. Give xfce a shot. also consider LXDE [02:18] tianna: what was the exact reply message? [02:18] is there any way I can get gotomeeting to work in Linux ? [02:18] dooglus, I personally like LXDE [02:18] or is there an alternative ? [02:18] my current method involves using WinXP to copy them onto a memory stick, then using the memory stick to move them here [02:18] but that's obviously sub-optimal [02:18] not allowed to execute as a root local host local domain [02:19] dooglus: I'd take LXDE over XFCE [02:19] dooglus, it's not completely barebones, it has the minimum features you expect without bloat [02:19] I use XFCE atm [02:19] So: I have GPARTED installd on my machine, but I don't find it anywhere... Not at the Applications menu. Yes I'v checked the 'Edit menus', but nowhere... Is there something I do not notice?

That's what I did, cause my AO was freezing all the time. [02:19] and windows sins a while :_) [02:19] OmiKrOn: use the 'software sources' tool [02:19] hans_: it is under the Adminstration menu as Partition Editor [02:20] well thank you anyway darling i know it is probably frustrating,, [02:20] good night [02:20] hans_: restart gnome-panel and try looking again, I think it get put in system->administration [02:20] dooglus: how do I do that in text mode? [02:20] ok so what should I do to mount my own drives without password? [02:20] OmiKrOn: in text mode I would just "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list" [02:20] i was using enlightenment (e17) in u9.04--anyone kno if it will work in 9.10 [02:20] ripps ::: doing now...

It's telling me I do not have the permission to access the files. [02:21] juststopedforcou, tryed that even loading it won't work [02:21] LinuX2half, man apt [02:21] lstarnes, fat16 and ntfs [02:21] Using a live cd btw [02:21] kinda take it for granted since i've not been using windows for a while [02:21] LinuX2half, err, scratch that, try man aptitude [02:21] hello folks - trying ubuntu 9.10 [02:21] OmiKrOn: I'm not sure, but http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#mirrors is a good starting point maybe?

(more than 12 hours) and to make it worse, I got disconnected from the internet which means I have to restart the whole damn thing [02:27] Yos: that will list all currently operating processes [02:27] Yos: for system load and process activity, use top or htop [02:27] dksoba88: no, I don't think you will [02:27] dksoba88: it should continue where it left off [02:28] scratchme, if I could get 500kb/sec id be happy :) [02:28] dooglus: I can copy pictures from my nokia phone over bluetooth in ubuntu [02:28] dooglus and ChogyDan, thank goodness [02:28] Wise-Guy: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [02:28] Right now, I'm getting 500MB/sec download speeds, which is average, but still good for all the traffic on the mirrors [02:28] dooglus and ChogyDan, err... Ubuntu [02:28] http://ubuntu.cs.utah.edu/releases/karmic/ [02:28] yofel: this laptop doesn't have bluetooth - but I have a USB cable [02:28] ChogyDan, ok thnx [02:28] 500KB/sec* [02:28] dksoba88: I'm gonna download the alternate CD instead... I think it's going to be more stable then. [02:28] I cannot set my resolution to anything above 1280x1040? What's wrong? [02:28] yofel: the phone (and memory stick) should appear as mass storage devices - but don't [02:28] I have 1.2 dsl, which winds up being about 153k per second [02:28] dukz_, diff between alternate and regular? [02:29] Voss_: I have 15MB/sec cable [02:29] according to the syslog its X server which is having issues [02:29] but I can't even log into through the virtual consoles [02:29] dksoba88: As relevant to this discussion: You can upgrade from the alternate (but it's not a live CD) [02:29] coz even the virtual consoles flicker [02:29] what does it mean to be logged in on pts/0 ? [02:29] dksoba88: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading <--- it says you use it for in place upgrading [02:29] Flannel, what's the disadvantage to alternate? [02:29] Voss_, ahh, well I have Cable and it's only supposed to be 7Mbit down, 1 up, but I seem to be getting 15/2 instead. [02:29] one nice mirrir: mirrors.kernel.org [02:29] my upgrade to 9.10 does nothing [02:29] mnaines, u mean 15mbps [02:29] I'm having trouble with java in 9.10. It crashes firefox everytime an applet starts. I am on x64 [02:29] dksoba88: It's not a LiveCD [02:30] are the some gui fstab editor? [02:30] Voss_: Yes...15 down 1.5 up [02:30] * DanaG has only 5 megabits down, 0.5 up. [02:30] xal2: what version of java plugin do you have? [02:30] 6 [02:30] mnaines I get about 1.2 mbps, uverse when it comes out will have 24 mbps [02:30] dksoba88: Also, installation takes slightly longer than the desktop CD, because it's gotta go through and use dpkg to install each package, instead of just copying stuff to your disk. But that's not terribly important. [02:30] my plan is to put the iso content into a usb, and detect the packages from there then do the in place upgrade... [02:30] xal2: how'd you install it? [02:30] through apt-get [02:30] So i've just upgraded to 9.10 and the "authenticate" window refuses to show guest as an authenticatable login. how do i explicitly allow it in say gdmsetup where it says in console "explititly ignoring guest" [02:31] Voss_, not to get too off-topic, but I'd love to get fiber optic service at this location ;) [02:31] xal2: try the sun jvm :) [02:31] !info pysdm | Lint [02:31] Lint: pysdm (source: pysdm): Graphical Storage Device Manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.1-0ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 28 kB, installed size 292 kB [02:31] that's what i installed [02:31] xal2- can either do a about:plugins in Firefox, or type java -version in a terminal [02:31] sun-java-plugin [02:31] sun-java6-plugin* [02:31] scratchme, well fiber would increase Ubuntu download speeds...(staying on topic) [02:32] Will erasing ubuntu 9.04 cause me to lose any files or data? [02:32] Flannel, does it still have to download packages? [02:32] MBD123: Yes, it will. I recommend backing up all your files to a flash drive or other external drive before installing 9.10 [02:32] I need to kill the distribution upgrade; what is the name of the app that I have to use killall ? [02:32] MBD123, doesn't erasing by definition require the file be "lost" ? [02:32] dksoba88: the majority of the packages are on the CD itself, it only needs to download what it doesn't have [02:33] Flannel, ic...awesome [02:33] test [02:33] hmm. lets see if it fixed itself :) [02:33] vingian, so i installed sun-java6-plugin. isn't that from sun? [02:33] Flannel, and thank you. [02:33] xal2: yes, was it the only java you installed? [02:33] Anyone know if UEC + Windows server images is possible? [02:33] yes [02:34] xal2: try to make sure: sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun [02:34] * xrandr is really starting to dislike ubuntu right now. Sound is not working :( [02:34] Is anyone having problems trying to get 9.10 to dual boot, with win7 installed first? [02:34] if i remove gstreamer, what happens? [02:34] xrandr: I haven't had any problems [02:34] none listed [02:35] FFEMTcJ: Does the Windows 7 partition have its own Master Boot Record? [02:35] xrandr: have you tried gsreamer-properties? [02:35] guys karmic is too fast for me. I can't keep up! [02:35] lol downloading 9.10-alternate w/torrent completely saturates my 10megabite connection...awesome [02:35] mnaines: Probably.. I installed it.. Booted, made sure it worked, then did 9.10.. Now it still only boots to Win.. No options at all [02:36] dksoba88, Oh noes, the RIAA will bust you for sharing free software ;) [02:36] FFEMTcJ: Can you boot into Windows with only the Windows 7 drive plugged in? [02:36] ChogyDan: what would this accomplish for me? [02:36] I love karmic! [02:36] mnaines: its a laptop.. [02:36] 10 megabyte? [02:36] Hi, using 9.10. How can I find information on ntfs partitions automatically mounted with the fresh install? There are no entries in /etc/fstab. [02:37] 80 megabit? [02:37] scratchme, lmao... I'm always worried about stuff like that [02:37] I'm on a live CD right now and it's even faster than my 9.04 HD installation. [02:37] Where do you get such a godawful-fast connection? [02:37] mnaines: cant dc the second drive [02:37] I am sooo surprised by how fast 9.10 boots up [02:37] FFEMTcJ: So its two partitions on one drive? [02:37] its by far the best improvement I've seen since 7.04 [02:37] s/godawful/ungodly/ [02:37] Nope.. Two 80g drives [02:37] DanaG, I have a co-located server that could probably get that if a server was near/in the datacenter. [02:38] DanaG, but that wouldn't get the image to my house any faster. [02:38] FFEMTcJ: Hmm...Well, you're going to run into problems if you cannot disconnect the drives before installing the operating systems [02:38] DanaG, 10 megaBIT... it'sa bout 1.25 megabytes/s. At UCSD I get about 12 megaBYTES/s... ridiculus. That was downloading an install file for AutoDesk Inventor... [02:38] mnaines: is that something new with grub2? never had a problem before [02:38] can any one help me fix video aspect ratio on totem after fresh install 9.10 [02:38] FFEMTcJ: I always run into problems if I try to install multiple operating systems under a single master boot record === ChogyDan1 is now known as ChogyDan [02:39] ive never had a problem before.. but i dunno if grub2 has somethin to do with it? [02:39] scratchme, lol yea at school I transfer things from our cluster to my PC at 50 MBytes/s... when I need those files at home and I use my internet connection it seems soo slow [02:40] FFEMTcJ: Could be. I do not know much about GRUB and I do not dual-boot, so I cannot help much [02:40] xrandr: did that help? I lost connection [02:40] Hello - I'm on 9.10 Beta; how do I upgrade to 9.10 release *from the command line*? [02:40] ChogyDan: nope. dont know what to do in there [02:40] !final | justin_ [02:40] justin_: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Karmic. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [02:40] hi, can anyone help me fix my boot process? It shows that dmraid is starting and .ck-history takes a long time. http://imagebin.org/69558 How do I stop dmraid from starting as I don't have raid [02:40] justin_: if your packages are up to date, then it should be the release version [02:40] ubottu: awesome, thanks [02:40] Sorry, I don't know anything about awesome, thanks [02:41] can any one help me fix video aspect ratio on totem after fresh install 9.10 [02:41] hi. does anybody is able to update, upgrade or install applications with 9.10? i'm not able to install anything (exept for the nvidia driver, it took 5 minutes to download) [02:41] formolQC: I have not had any problems with 9.10 [02:41] xrandr: under sound > output, try out every setting till you hopefully get working sound [02:41] ChogyDan: if i remove gstreamer, what happens? === Mike||gone is now known as Mike_lifeguard [02:42] formolQC: use a diffrent mirror main ones will be overloaded [02:42] why the hell volume control app is not installed by default? [02:42] xrandr: I think all the programs that use gstreamer for sound won't work? [02:42] Is just backing up my main folder enough? Should I back up anything else? [02:42] I'm on ubuntu 9.04. Why does firefox not show the videos when they are put in fullscreen sometimes? I put it in fullscreen to watch a video, and end up having refresh the page, making me have to rebuff the entire video, which are sometimes movies >_> any ideas on why it's doing this? [02:42] ChogyDan: autodetect aint doing crap for me [02:43] formolQC: go to softwhere sources slect other then hit scan for best it will auto slect the fatest mirror [02:43] * mnaines can answer 9.10 install questions and 9.10 security questions, so don't hesitate to ask if you're having problems [02:43] gogeta, i tryed 4 or 5 servers, all occuped [02:43] how are you people finding karmic? [02:43] yaaaaaa 9.10 is very nice! =) [02:43] go to update manager [02:43] it should be in there [02:43] formolQC: use the scan feature [02:43] xrandr: are you using gst-props? [02:43] I cant install it though, it keeps stopping due to error [02:43] ChogyDan: gstreamer-properties [02:43] formolQC: it will ping threw like 400 diffrent servers [02:44] I'm going to have karmic as soon as I back up these files, but I need to know if I should back up more than my main folder [02:44] xrandr: ya, don't use autodetect, just try each plugin, and then try every device under each plugin [02:44] I cant install because it says I don't ubuntu-minimal software source or something o_o [02:45] attention please! please more seed if using torrent file to download ubuntu9.10. [02:45] ok [02:45] gogeta, I will retry now, maybe it will be okay, i tryed earlier today, to scan the server, and it stoped because it was too slow (but, in another way, it's normal, the server are working, and we don't pay for it....) [02:45] more seed please. [02:45] I know I'm not supposed to ask multiple times, but this can't wait [02:45] formolQC: yea if it does that et it alone it only sems frozen [02:46] sombody - i need help, need to know the device name of a hard drive just plugged in (internal IDE) [02:46] MBD123: Take this advice from a security expert: ALWAYS back up the mission-critical data to an external drive [02:46] I've got a bunch of files on an ubuntu server I want to be able to access on my ubuntu desktop, I've already got them shared with samba, but there's no easy way to mount them and get access to them through programs (they don't see the mount points), should I set them up in my /etc/fstab or is there another way? [02:46] Which files should I back up before switching to 9.10? [02:46] how do I get new GPG keys for apt-get? just installed karmic via LiveUSB and am trying to update packages... [02:46] tech-mike we cannot figure that for you, search the bios for boot devices [02:46] MBD123: All of them? [02:46] receive the following error: [02:46] "W: GPG error: http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key " [02:47] MBD123: Please see my previous message: Any mission-critical data or personal data should always be backed up on a regular basis [02:47] Mnaines: oh, I didn't realize you said something. Sorry [02:47] never! [02:47] always take a risk [02:47] its more fun that way [02:47] the bios wont tell me the linux/ubuntu device name "/dev/sda" "/dev/hdb" ??? [02:47] Mnaines: Mission-critical? [02:47] MBD123: consider creating a separate partition with /home as a mountpoint [02:47] hmn... [02:47] I see what you mean [02:47] MBD123: it makes installs much easier [02:47] MBD123: Mission critical meaning data that you cannot go without [02:48] where are you trying to find this out tech mike? [02:48] ok i need someone to SERIOUSLY help me now. Yesterday I was on for three hours trying to figure out why i couldn't install anything from command line or use the update manager. Turns out it's because for some reason the system wouldn't let go of the Tor proxy i set systemwide. Even though I went into Network Proxy and disabled it system wide, it STILL looks for it. Ebb found this link: http://burakdd.wordpress.com/2009/08/24/removing-proxy-server-fro [02:48] m-ubuntu-9-04/ which tells me to run this command: unset http_proxy. I ran it and it worked. Now the problem has started up again, and that command won't fix it...so what the??? o.0 [02:48] Hello, can someone please help me troubleshoot a Grub error 17 on installation of Karmic Koala? Full explanation here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305413 [02:48] whats with the MD5SUMS.gpg file? [02:48] TimClicks: sorry, you lost me [02:48] are you trying to find it on a cd installation or in ubuntu itself? [02:48] * Marfi is back to help [02:48] hi, if I upgrade from 9.04 with ext3 file system to 9.10, will the file system change to ext4? [02:48] i dont know where - lspci doesnt help, the app hardware-info doesnt help....i need it so that with ntfsundelete i can tell it what device to scan [02:48] Marfi: I can help with 9.10 install issues or 9.10 security issues [02:48] marfi, can u help me then? :D [02:48] zatlite: nobody knows what you're talking about. details! [02:49] mnaines: Nope, I'm back on to help everyone here. =) [02:49] tech-mike: What seems to be the problem? [02:49] MBD123: have you used linux for long? [02:49] attention please! please more seed if using torrent file to download ubuntu9.10. thank you. [02:49] have you tried the gnome partition editor? [02:49] Marfi: Great. You can help people with the stuff I can't [02:49] zatlite: no it won't, you need to do a clean install if you want ext4 [02:49] Repos being slow for anyone? [02:49] it may help you in your quest [02:49] Marfi: need to know where to look for device names [02:49] anyone know how i can make my update sources list to 9.10? from the upgrade my source list still hold some things for 9.04 and i dont know whats new or old. [02:49] tech-mike: It's in system > admin > devices, if I remember right [02:49] anyone have any idea why the system proxy simply WON'T go away and keeps blocking me from doing anything? [02:49] torc: I averaged 40kbps [02:49] hey guys, how can i recover password from karmic ? [02:49] I believe that will help you [02:49] thanks trism [02:49] tech-mike: Or lspci | grep [02:49] TimClick: no [02:49] partition editor :D [02:50] pw: the password for sudo'n? [02:50] Marfi: ive tried lspci - i didnt see the device name though [02:50] pw: Boot in single mode, and as root, passwd [02:50] tech-mike: What device are you looking for? [02:50] ChogyDan: Ok, using custom, and ossink, it says another application is using the device. How can I check to see which app is using it? [02:50] an IDE harddrive [02:50] anyone able to help me? o.0 :( [02:50] MatFarrel: Stop whining, there are plenty of seeds. [02:50] a newly added internal hard drive (ide) [02:50] hes looking for a partition [02:50] hi [02:50] MBD123: okay. Basically you can split hard drives into partitions. Among other things, they allow your files to be semi-independent [02:50] Marfi: does that work with karmic ? [02:50] xrandr: ps aux | grep [02:50] is the new speedy boot up times dependent on ext4 file system? or can you still get faster boot times when upgrading from ext3 Jaunty? [02:50] so I said he should look in the gnome partition editor [02:50] Marfi: i remember it not working with hardy [02:51] xrandr: don't know. That's what pulseaudio was supposed to solve [02:51] pw: Yup, works with most versions of linux, and I don't see them disabling that any time soon [02:51] lovely [02:51] * xrandr uninstalls pulseaudio and reinstalls [02:51] MBD123: Your /home directory is where all of your personal files live (possibly the 'mission critical' ones) [02:51] xrandr: nothing else works? [02:51] zatlite: I do not think it is the file system so much as the read/write speeds of the hard drive itself [02:51] zatlite: ext4 has a lot of new things. 9.10 is also a re-work. I would recommend re-installing instead of updating [02:51] ChogyDan: nope [02:51] zatlite: best performance comes from ext4 filesystems created from nothing - ext3 upgraded to ext4 is 2nd best [02:51] Marfi: i remember having to put in root passwd to run single user mode [02:51] Marfi: i remember having to put in root passwd to run single user mode/recovery [02:51] TimClick: Okay, but I don't think I have enough disk space [02:51] pw: You shouldn't, not in recovery / single user mode [02:51] Marfi: ok i will try. ty [02:51] pw: Unless they changed it from 9.04 to 9.10 [02:51] pw: pn [02:51] pw: try a blank password? [02:51] **np [02:52] zatlite: faster boot is a product of both using ext4 (which, even in jaunty, made a big difference) and using upstart (new in karmic) [02:52] Marfi: ?? [02:52] ANYONE?!??? :( [02:52] i installed and somehow the damn pw didn't work :( [02:52] MBD123: space itself shouldn't be too much of an issue [02:52] I am having a lot of trouble upgrading from Hardy to Karmic [02:52] !ask | Psinetic [02:52] Psinetic: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [02:52] tech-mike: What are you looking for? Sorry, multitasking to help with the load. ^_^ [02:52] I keep on getting this error message [02:52] Psinetic: whats a system proxy [02:52] After your package information was updated the essential package 'ubuntu-minimal' can not be found anymore. [02:52] This indicates a serious error, please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bug report [02:52] Rothen: That's because doing so isn't supported. [02:52] Ben64 i've alrady asked the same stupid question four times [02:52] Rothen: Do not upgrade. There are too many issues with upgrading. Just do a clean install. [02:52] hello!! im using windows 7 and i want to install kubuntu from an usb pendrive, how do i do it?? [02:52] mage__ the system proxy is a proxy you can set on the system [02:52] Rothen, skipping versions is unsupported. [02:52] fuck I dont want to :( [02:52] Rothen: do a clean install. it's much better way to go [02:53] System->Prefs->Network proxy [02:53] ah [02:53] I need to get a disk now :\ or bother with a usb drive [02:53] Rothen: too bad, computers suck :) [02:53] Marfi: i have pm'd u [02:53] Timclicks: so, if I'm on a 16GB disk, I'll have enough room to create a partition in which to back up my Jaunty files? [02:53] Rothen, you could have gone 8.10->9.04->9.10, but not 8.10->9.10 [02:53] Rothen: you'll be glad you did. :) [02:53] wait [02:53] lol [02:53] hey guys [02:53] burning the iso now [02:53] ubuntunewuser, http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ [02:53] but just for Ben64, i'll post the question again :) [02:53] I meant jaunty [02:53] o_o [02:53] ok i need someone to SERIOUSLY help me now. Yesterday I was on for three hours trying to figure out why i couldn't install anything from command line or use the update manager.

[02:53] MBD123: Considering 9.10 only needs about 5GB, yes [02:53] m-ubuntu-9-04/ which tells me to run this command: unset http_proxy. I ran it and it worked. Now the problem has started up again, and that command won't fix it...so what the??? o.0 [02:53] anyone got any screenshots [02:53] Psinetic: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [02:53] anyone had problems with AMD64 and karmic koala? [02:53] karmic is working fine. [02:54] Psinetic: Stop repeating yourself. [02:54] tech-mike: Got it. ;_ [02:54] sorry about that, I loved hardy so much that I use it now [02:54] I am upgrading an amd64 system from 9.04 to 9.10 and it's frozen - last line in the /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log is this "2009-10-29 21:31:39,457 WARNING no activity on terminal for 240 seconds (Configuring libpam0g)" and it's been stuck on that for like 2 hours. Any ideas? [02:54] *;) [02:54] Psinetic: the proxy works via environment [02:54] MBD123: ahh... the partitioning is really best done if you're working with a clean installation [02:54] I'm having a hell of a time downloading the end files for freeglut [02:54] I was running the 9.10 Release Candidate days before final release. How come Update Manager hasn't told me there's a new upgrade available? [02:54] Mike_lifeguard, then someone answer the question >_> and Ben wanted to know the questoin, so i told him. READ my friend, READ [02:54] MBD123: as far as backing up 16GB - a USB stick would come in handy [02:54] t0rc: Mirrors are running slow. It won't speed up for a good week or 2 [02:55] z3ro3x: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [02:55] mage__ i know how the proxy works, what i don't know is why it just won't turn off [02:55] t0rc: try selecting a more local server in Software Sources [02:55] Psinetic: Maybe you didn't notice that folks here are volunteers. Flooding the channel with the same question repeatedly is a guaranteed way to not get help. [02:55] Psinetic: tor proxy is localhost? do "set |grep localhost" in a console and then it'll show PROXY=localhost:923 or something similar, try unset PROXY and then try from that terminal [02:55] anybody use intel here? [02:55] Timclicks: thanks for your help, but I just got some 1 on 1 help. Turns out I only needed to back up the home folder. Thanks anyway :) [02:55] ive tried unetbootin but it doesnt work with windows 7...! any other app?? to install kubuntu from usb pendrive?? [02:55] z3ro3x: If that doesn't kick it in...update-manager -d from terminal [02:55] kankan_: intel what? [02:55] mb. [02:55] I just upgraded to 9.10 and I have a few issues. First off, Firefox is STILL shiretoko [02:55] kankan_: i have an intel coffee warmer :D [02:55] ubuntunewuser: Why not a CD? And unetbootin should work [02:55] WARNING no activity on terminal for 240 seconds (Configuring libpam0g) ... Anyone? :( [02:55] kankan_: Maybe it would be best to state your actual problem! [02:55] graphics [02:55] does anyone know why when you minimize windows in ubuntu 9.10 they dont show up on the bar at the bottom? [02:55] compiz.desktop effect [02:55] hey, just got Karmic, quick questions: how do I enable timestamps and logging in Empathy? [02:56] is 9.10 stable [02:56] Ok guys, i'm not crazy. Random shutdown happened in karmic again. [02:56] hackmygibson: that'll be a bug, I think [02:56] is there some sort of a tutorial or something someone can link me to for help with configuring xdaliclock? i'm having a hard time getting it how i want it, and i've seen some brilliant examples of it in use [02:56] hey guys - wrong channel, but the correct one seems dead - latest xubuntu, i'm at the install screen with the "boot options" and "Install Xubuntu" middle of the screen [02:56] kohlrak: Check your hardware [02:56] MBD123: am glad to hear you're on your way :) [02:56] where do i go from here? [02:56] Marfi: the usb had ntfs file system and it gave me an error should i tried with fat32? [02:56] !xubuntu | millo87 [02:56] millo87: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels [02:56] Nevertaken9000: man kdaliclock [02:56] Mike_lifeguard, well asking the question doesn't seem to get answers, so what do you expect me to do? just sit here and pray and hope that someone actually answers me? i understand what you're saying, i ask you to understand what i'm saying. [02:56] !install ubuntu [02:56] Sorry, I don't know anything about install ubuntu [02:56] ubuntunewuser: You need to format it to fat32 [02:56] is 9.10 stable [02:56] now... how long until the next +1 opens? =þ [02:56] Marfi: we did this already. Hardware's fine. It shut down normally when i plugged it in and use the mouse, as if i went to shut down but i didn't. =p [02:56] linuxuz3r: Yup [02:56] back to 9.04 for me [02:56] Marfi: thanks! and how can i recover grub2?? [02:57] johnboker: why are you going back [02:57] Marfi: ok [02:57] ubuntunewuser, try http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ it will do everything alone [02:57] kohlrak: Try to check your BIOS to see if there is anything funky for USB [02:57] mage__, it's still not working. i still get the same error [02:57] Marfi: should i type, sudo update-grub && sudo grub-install /dev/sda? [02:57] linuxuz3r 9.10 is having a lot of issues, i cant even boot now [02:57] did you install grub properly? [02:57] Psinetic: That's because nobody so far knows how to help you. Deal with it. Again: people here are volunteers. Some of us, being human, don't know everything and therefore cannot help you. Unfortunately, all the ones who *do* know everything are bots and thus not terribly helpful. [02:57] ubuntunewuser: Not sure how they did grub2. IT used to be....yea, that should do it. I would get the grubLive disk, though. [02:57] I'm going to try 9.10 shortly [02:57] attention please! please more seed (don't limit upload speed) if using torrent file to download Ubuntu9.10. It's call community. Thank you. [02:57] Marfi: check my bios how? Plus, i've been using ubuntu for a while, didn't start 'till karmic. I'd send a bug report, but i don't know how to reproduce it yet. [02:57] It'll be a "sidegrade" for me [02:57] johnboker: did you installl grub properly [02:58] hey guys - wrong channel, but the correct one seems dead - latest xubuntu, i'm at the install screen with the "boot options" and "Install Xubuntu" middle of the screen - can someone tell me where to go from here? [02:58] linuxuz3r i upgraded from 9.04 and after rebooting the screen is completely white, i decided to do a fresh install of 9.10 and the installer has a white screen too [02:58] wait i figured out what it was when im minimizing the window it is being closed instead [02:58] millo87: Ask in #xubuntu please [02:58] Is this normal during an upgrade?: http://pastebin.com/m4df1763d [02:58] Mike_lifeguard, thank you for your help. [02:58] kohlrak: Could be something with the USB, usually f2 or delete when you boot up. May want to run a mentest, too [02:58] johnboker: thats odd [02:58] I did ask there mike, but the channel appears dead, no response for over 5 minutes now [02:58] linuxuz3r grub is fine, the graphics driver has some major issues for me [02:59] am i getting message about repo failing due to traffic ? [02:59] is there any way to make apt use a different mirror? [02:59] millo87: Click the "try xubuntu without modifying the hard drive" and there will be an install script on the desktop [02:59] linuxuz3r https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/297245 [02:59] the intel graphics issue still persisits. [02:59] johnboker: oh [02:59] johnboker: what graphics card [02:59] Psinetic: so the proxy isn't an environment variable? [02:59] intel i965 [02:59] kankan_: the intel regretion is gone on my hardware [02:59] Marfi: USB? How? What did they add with karmic that could make the USB tell my computer to shut down normally? I'll run the memtest, though.... It's possible, but i find it very unlikely considering it happened the very next day after i installed karmic from jaunty. [02:59] intel i845 [02:59] regression* [02:59] mage__ it is, and it worked yesterday, but it's like everytime i cut it off it simply comes back on. I have no idea why it's not working now, it fixed it yesterday. [03:00] people, which program can I use for edit docbook files? [03:00] IdleOne:how? [03:00] i've only found the one bug for me in 9.10 everything else seems fine [03:00] IdleOne: do you also use compiz? I get crashes with any compiz effect after upgrading :\ [03:00] johnboker: good luck with your problem [03:00] i was looking forward to the update too, kinda disappointing [03:00] kohlrak: If memory serves correctly, they switched from HAL to managing hardware to something else, don't remember what it was. That might be a place to start looking. ;) [03:00] IdleOne: But seems more stable otherwise (ie the *system* is stable, even if compiz is broken) [03:00] kankan_: I upgraded and 3d effects are working. Mike_lifeguard yes compiz seems to be fine also [03:00] mage__ i would get you a pastebin of the error....but it keeps saying it's spam...>_> [03:00] during upgrade? : http://pastebin.com/m4df1763d [03:01] Psinetic: p.defau.lt is better [03:01] what intel card do u use? [03:01] Anyone who updated from 9.04 to 9.10....best way is to ALWAYS do a clean install. Less stuff breaks. This is from many errors on my part. Learn from my mistakes. Thank you. =) [03:01] ha haa... I guess I'm not the only one who is having software download slowness issues, http://mashable.com/2009/10/29/karmic-koala/ [03:01] Marfi: Oh yeah, i heard about that. That's one of hte things they're looking for bugs the most for, i wish i could reproduce it for y'all, cause i know we're about to see this alot more. [03:01] kankan_: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) [03:01] Marfi: Yeah, it is now KMS (I think that's what it is called... kernel mode setting) [03:01] mage__ http://p.defau.lt/?DWNRGBUEoCaoxdD8cXYR2A [03:01] ChogyDan: odd. i get sound in KOpete, but audio as in music or anything from the net is negative [03:01] Marfi: and to hat about updating, then there should be a better process for upgrading... [03:02] kankan: intel i965 is the one im having issues with [03:02] you did anything to enable 3d effects? [03:02] xrandr: hmm, maybe it's a gstreamer bug [03:02] FINALLY I can watch Jon Stewart with firefox!!! ^_^ [03:02] marfi: anyway, i'll go do a quick memtest. I'll be back, i doubt it'll find anything but i better do it anyway... [03:02] kankan_: go to System, Prefs , Appearance and click the 3d effects [03:02] Any screen experts who can tell me how to kill a window straight from the window list (C-a ")? [03:02] ChogyDan: can firefox and amarok/rhythmbox be configured to use something other than gstreamer? [03:02] kankan_: also install compizconfig-settings-manager [03:03] * DanaG wonders if it's possible to get compiz to not speed up the GPU. [03:03] this may be a stupid question, but if i try running "xdaliclock -root" nothing happens...how do i get xdaliclock to run without a window? i can get everything else about it to work but i want it to be stationary? what else do i have to do? [03:03] Right now, compiz reduces battery life a lot. [03:03] no idea [03:03] DanaG: it doesn't speed up the GPU on mine until I DO something [03:04] say anyone using VirtualBox for Ubuntu? [03:04] MenZa: What do you mean "the window list"? [03:04] Xgates: yes, [03:04] xrandr: amarok can use xine, I think. But I'm pretty sure rhythmbox is stuck with gstreamer [03:04] mnaines: I got it working... I had to reinstall grub2 via the livecd [03:04] Psinetic: is that from a console? [03:04] mage__ no that's from the update manager [03:04] FFEMTcJ: Good job. Sorry I could not help. [03:04] this is reallllly homo, i have to load every program again and again if i have a maximized window infront of it === IndyGunFreak_ is now known as IndyGunFreak [03:05] Mike_lifeguard: If you're in screen, try C-a " - this'll give you a list of your active windows. [03:05] Hi All, Are there any issues upgrading to 9.10 from Update Manager.? Any one tried , thanks . [03:05] mage__ hmmmmm now THAT'S odd. running "sudo apt-get update" in terminal works fine. but it won't work in the update manager. [03:05] guys, i need to copy some files from home folder using LIVECD, but i cannot acess it, because it says permission denied [03:05] register t3mp0r4l wootchismo@yahoo.com [03:05] FFEMTcJ: this url ---> http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Fix-VirtualBox-USB-Support-111715.shtml says that when you look at the groups you'll find a group entry there called 'vboxusers' but I see none. I know I can just add the name, but I'm wondering does any VB pkg set this up? [03:05] arunreddy: just completed upgrade about 1 hour ago. all went fine. [03:05] arunreddy: Upgrading from 9.04 WILL cause 9.10 to break. It is best to do a clean install of 9.10 [03:06] MenZa: cool, never knew about that [03:06] While trying to sudo apt-get update, I'm getting this error: "A error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used.GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key " [03:06] Installing 9.10!!! [03:06] arunreddy: but just because it worked for me does not mean it will for you :/ [03:06] mnaines : Thanks [03:06] the downloads are too slow, do any of you have a server that is located in the usa but is not public? [03:06] Wasn't Shiretoko supposed to rebrand to Firefox3.5 with 9.10? [03:06] anybody ? [03:06] LETS make it a torrent file! [03:07] Does anybody have time to help me with a grub problem? [03:07] Psinetic: evironment variables are inherited and when you set it system wide it didn't get passed down to the updater applet [03:07] TheFunkbomb: Shiretoko was the codename for Firefox 3.5 [03:07] i can't install 9.10 for Amd64 using alternate CD, what could be the problem? [03:07] mnaines, I know that [03:07] guys, i need to copy some files from home folder using LIVECD, but i cannot acess it, because it says permission denied [03:07] !torrents | spO [03:07] spO: Karmic can be torrented from http://hr.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your architecture. Torrents for other Ubuntu flavours can be found at: http://it.releases.ubuntu.com/ (CD) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases (DVD). [03:07] !torrents | spO [03:07] spO: use the torrent from ubuntu.com [03:07] thanks [03:07] Brent: What seems to be the problem? It's slightly hectic here, as you can tell [03:07] mnaines, but mine is still called shiretoko [03:07] mage__ how do i pass it down then? [03:07] attention please! please more seed (don't limit upload speed) if using torrent file to download Ubuntu9.10. It's call community. Thank you. [03:07] i can see that [03:07] TheFunkbomb: To answer your question, firefox 3.5 is default in 9.10 [03:07] Brent: =) [03:08] mnaines, mine is still called shiretoko [03:08] MatFarrel: Stop whining, not everyone has infinite bandwidth, and there are plenty of seeds. [03:08] happy release day! [03:08] i installed 9.1 just today on a hard drive by itself, i wanted to hook up an old drive with windows xp on it as a slave and grab a ton of files off of it that i want, but when i do, grub tells me its out of memory and cant load [03:08] Marfi: slightly hetic, LOL, that's why I made another ubuntu channel so in time there will another place a bit more relaxed [03:08] Mike_lifeguard: Don't be a bummer. [03:08] how do I determine the drive numbers for "/dev/sda1"? (i.e. hd0,3) [03:08] Brent: Set the other HDD as master [03:09] the one with winxp on it? [03:09] Brent: No, the ubuntu one. [03:09] did someone get success with webcam using new ubuntu? [03:09] Brent: Another idea would be to make the Ubuntu one on it's own IDE cable, then put the other on on the other [03:09] it is, or should be i guess [03:09] FFEMTcJ: did you check that URL? [03:09] CrocoJet: I have some success [03:09] anarki2004: sda1 is hd0,0 I think [03:09] its jumpered cable select and on the first ide thingy [03:09] I am getting image "down to up" [03:09] CrocoJet: I did see an application in the install manager for a webcam. Don't know if that would help [03:10] Mike_lifeguard: thats sort of what I thought, but wasn't sure [03:10] Brent: If they are on the same cable, then the ubuntu HDD needs to be master [03:10] CrocoJet: THere's normally a setting to flip the image vertically. [03:10] what application ? [03:10] MatFarrel: ok, now I'm seeding the torrent with 100mbit, stop complaining [03:10] Brent: Another way is to plug the one up as master, don't plug in the windows, boot into ubuntu, then plug the other in [03:10] Hey people! Back after a restart. Run into the same annoying thing as after all boots. Data partition is not mounted by default. Is there a way to automount a partition? That would be really nice.... [03:10] Mike_lifeguard: I mean if people have fast bandwidth, please more upload and don't limited. [03:10] so i just need to jumper it master and i should be all set? [03:10] ANYone else having a problem with windows closing when you minimize, just curious [03:10] Brent: Yup [03:10] anarki2004: You can probably tell what's what with ... somecommandiforget in grub [03:10] MatFarrel: theres only 2 leechers anyway, doesn't matter, shush [03:10] how to show my home folder and trash icon on desktop? [03:11] i can plug the xp HDD in say [03:11] right now? [03:11] Mike_lifeguard: still haven't really figured out grub [03:11] exit === MK-ubuntu is now known as test-us [03:11] so much for the memtest [03:11] MatFarrel: Yeah, I heard you, now stop whining, it is really annoying and totally useless. [03:11] Brent: Yup. Don't hit anything on the mobo though [03:11] So I guess I should try re-installing grub from a live cd? [03:11] anarki2004: nobody has [03:11] Mike_lifeguard: but I am trying to use it right now.... [03:11] upload rate: 4.9 kB/s \\\ <--- good thing I jumped on the torrent [03:11] what will happen? ubuntu will just all of a sudden see the drive and allow me to browse it? [03:11] hello [03:11] kankan_- go to configuration editor and under apps/nautilus [03:11] Ben64: don't close your torrent until 2 week. [03:12] don't tell me when to close my torrent [03:12] Mike_lifeguard: You need to go read the freenode policies. Telling him to stop 'whining' is not in the spirit of freenode or Ubuntu. [03:12] marfi, know specifically where i might look on launchpad for my error incase it's already reported? [03:12] Rabbitbunny: it is in the spirit of the Governator [03:12] where is configuration editor? [03:12] kohlrak: I would start by looking for usb errors with KMS [03:12] Rabbitbunny: clearly you don't know what you're talking about :) [03:12] hello guys [03:12] why are you suppose to update jaunty before you get karmic? what are the ramifications if i skip this step [03:12] marfi: thanks [03:12] Yarrrrr AliceMargatroid [03:12] ** al1as [03:12] kankan_- go to sys/prefs/main menu and check it [03:13] ebtek220: upgrading between versions is complicated enough already, I really recommend you don't test your luck [03:13] if you dual boot two different ubuntu releases, can you transfer files from one release to the other? [03:13] strange ... at 9.04 was working pretty nice .. now I have bad quality image (webcam) [03:13] anyone know how I can rebrand shiretoko into firefox 3.5 in 9.10? [03:13] doc_brown: Yes. [03:13] hey [03:13] I have samsung Pleomax [03:13] should i upgrade to 9.10? [03:13] I got "Warning: unable to find a suitable fs in /proc/mounts, is it mounted?". How can i fix it? [03:13] kank IT WILL BE UNDER SYSTEM TOOLS [03:13] im using 9.4 [03:13] Andysalina5: I recommend doing a clean install [03:13] well [03:13] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtBBl6HvdpM Re-installing Grub 2 would be similar to this, right? [03:13] Best place for Karmic i386 CDR download is ? ? [03:13] doc_brown: Some people have entirely separate Linux distros on the same computer with a shared /home partition, so yes [03:13] i have important documents Marfi [03:13] !torrents | snayth [03:13] snayth: Karmic can be torrented from http://hr.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your architecture. Torrents for other Ubuntu flavours can be found at: http://it.releases.ubuntu.com/ (CD) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases (DVD). [03:13] check [03:14] anyone running 9.10 on VirtualBox? [03:14] VM ware fusion === KeNeFkO is now known as postaconef [03:14] is what i use [03:14] a quick question, how do i get into my boot menu like 9.04? [03:14] I got "Warning: unable to find a suitable fs in /proc/mounts, is it mounted?". How can i fix it? [03:14] Marfi: I tried all the commands you mentioned. And all of them tell me every thing is up to date. I would have thought that there would be some updates to download once the final release comes out to update the release candidate I've been running. [03:14] I know VMware :) [03:14] yeah [03:14] its awesome [03:15] i use mac [03:15] but [03:15] Starting to use 9.10. How can I change the button configuration on a Wacom stylus? [03:15] Andysalina5: The enter key is not puncuation. [03:15] ubuntu/xubuntu is much better [03:15] well for free VirtualBox is pretty awesome :) [03:15] hello can anyone help to fix a sr0? [03:15] sweetandy, i have 8.10 and 8.04, and i want to install 9.10. but there are 110 GB of files i need, and my external died. So i dont want to lose all of that [03:15] me** [03:15] z3ro3x: You may be up-to-date. They normally kick out updates a day earlier for RC'ers, so they can get ahead of the traffic [03:15] sweetandy, install 9.10 as in the one and only OS [03:15] Rabbitbunny. I dont like typing so many words quickly because i am bound to make mistakes [03:15] that could be embarrassing [03:15] Andysalina5: Not to mention, it's free [03:16] hmm [03:16] well the thing is [03:16] anyone [03:16] i just upgraded to karmic from jaunty and am having a linking problem. pidgin and x-chat will not open firefox. has anyone else had this problem? [03:16] Andysalina5: And cheaper. And stable. [03:16] doc_brown: you probably have everything on one partition, mounted as /. If that's the case, then you'll have to find a way to transfer the files. Keeping a separate /home partition is useful for just this reason. [03:16] if I install ubuntu 9.10 will it recognize and write over my old ubuntu partition, or do i have to install windows 7 again first? [03:16] my internet maxes out at about 300 kb/s [03:16] so i have to order a copy of the disk [03:16] TheCheeze: Try alt + f2, then type "firefox". see if that works [03:16] doc_brown: that way, you can keep all your files without touching them between installation of different OSes. [03:16] Marfi, I was hoping for some patches considering the issues I've been having with Rhythmbox and Miro. [03:16] TheCheeze: check out System/Preferences/Preferred Applications and see what is listed [03:17] Andysalina5: That happens to me and I'm on a 15 down 1.5 up connection. That's normal because of all the traffic on the mirrors right now. [03:17] and, 300 kb/s is fast enough and you could download it overnigth [03:17] doc_brown: That's a LOT of files. [03:17] spO: you can tell it to overwrite the 9.04 install. [03:17] Andysalina5: Please try to keep your sentences on one line. You can even put more than one sentence on a single line. This helps everyone in the channel. As well, you should address who you're talking to, otherwise they could easily miss it. [03:17] Hi. Fresh install of 9.10 and my ntfs partitions were mounted fine! installed my mp3 stuff and flash when i opened konqueror then restarted my system. Now ubuntu hasnt mounted by ntfs partitions? How can this happen? Only way to get them back is to edit /etc/fstab? [03:17] trism, says firefox === jay is now known as Guest96491 [03:17] since i can't use the update manager, does anyone know of a way to upgrade to karmic via command line? [03:17] the repos are dead [03:17] sweetandy, when i realized my external was dying, i quickly backed up to my laptop 250 gb [03:17] boomernang: places > click on your HDD from there [03:17] :/ [03:17] I dont have a computer that i can use to download all night. My dad thinks all torrents are viruses due to a bad experience with windows [03:17] boomernang: Or edit your /etc/fstab [03:17] Marfi, i can launch firefox from cmd and the launchers [03:18] how to show my home folder and trash icon on desktop? [03:18] Psinetic: do-release-upgrade ? [03:18] can someone help me with a sr0 problem? [03:18] Marfi, alt+f2 firefox launches it as well [03:18] TheCheeze: But you can't launch from the other programs...? Should you be able to? *confused look* [03:18] what's the 'correct' way to set my default cpu governer? it's performance right now but I want ondemand? [03:18] dude it wasnt a bug the windows list got deleted thanks [03:18] doc_brown: if you have all of your files backed up, after the fresh install, you can mount the laptop in question as a network drive, probably via SSH if it's also linux. [03:18] z3ro3x: Patches for what? Too many names. =) [03:18] any msi wind users here? [03:18] Andysalina5, ALL torrents ARE viruses. especially linux torrents [03:18] Oct 29 20:18:32 deathvalley122-desktop kernel: [ 2703.471272] VFS: busy inodes on changed media or resized disk sr0 [03:18] yes, i should be able to lol. i was using 3.5.3 in jaunty with no problems, so i know it shouldnt be a browser upgrade issue [03:18] lol i know but my dad isnt very technology educated === Tetracomm is now known as Hullybully [03:19] so he uses macosx cause its super easy [03:19] TheCheeze: maybe try setting preferred applications to custom and using firefox %s [03:19] If I want to replace an apps Icon, where should I put my icon I made? [03:19] how to show my home folder and trash icon on desktop? [03:19] RPG_Master: Anywhere. It defaults to /usr/share/Icons though [03:19] kankan_: sudo apt-get install gtweakui , go to system > prefferences > gtweakui-nautalus [03:19] kankan_: And it will be there [03:20] Marfi: But what do I name the file, so that it will replace the default icon everywhere? [03:20] anybody? [03:20] sweetandy, can i create a partition to store the files, and install karmic on a separate partition? === ubuntu is now known as SineDeviance [03:20] trism- is currently firefox -new-tab "%s" [03:20] RPG_Master: You should be able to click the launcher in the menu and edit it from there, and that should change it everywhere. You may need to go into appearence, though [03:20] I have a new install of Desktop 9.10 and there is a problem with my package manager the message is "E: Type 'Reading' is not known on line 54 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list [03:20] E: The list of sources could not be read. [03:20] Go to the repository dialog to correct the problem. [03:20] E: _cache->open() failed, please report." [03:20] are the rumors true that Microsoft intends on buying Ubuntu? [03:20] cn: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:20] RPG_Master: you should probably save it some place in your home directory, and replace the current with a symlink to the new one [03:20] So i want to buy an older P4 computer with about 2 gigs of ddr2 ram. Its single core clocked at 3.4ghz. Should i install ubu 9.10 or should i use xubuntu instead? === Mike_lifeguard is now known as Mike||gone [03:21] So i got the nvidia-glx-96 driver working, but it crashes X [03:21] this is what lspci reports the card as 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NVCrush11 [GeForce2 MX Integrated Graphics] (rev b1) [03:21] cn: Did you edit your sources.list file? [03:21] RPG_Master: I do this for the pgadmin3 icon (UGLY) [03:21] hello [03:21] Andysalina5, I run Ubuntu on a Celeron 630mHz and 512mb de RAM. I think you should try Ubuntu. [03:21] Yar ionstorm66 [03:21] Hey is anybody know how to restrict Control + mouse wheel up/down ? [03:21] watch out when buying old stuff... make sure you don't pay more than you should. [03:21] i did a fresh install of 9.10 on my lappy [03:21] KurtKraut: is it fast? [03:21] KurtKraut: I feel sorry for you. /me hugs his celeron [03:22] and my touch pad quit working [03:22] Andysalina5: Nope. very slow [03:22] Marfi:thanks a lot [03:22] * Andysalina5 kisses celeron [03:22] Especially if you can get an equivalent new-ish-ish system for approximately similar price. [03:22] doc_brown: If the files are already on one partition, you'd need twice as much space as the files take up in order to create an extra partition that would not be touched in the reinstall. If you have the files backed up, check out Parted Magic LiveCD, but do some research to find out what you're doing. [03:22] kankan_: Np. =) [03:22] calebH: Yeah, I am making a replacement icon for gmountiso (BLEH!) [03:22] im getting the computer for approx 99$ [03:22] its a steal [03:22] doc_brown: You may need to just do a wipe, but set it up right this time. [03:22] an XML editor that support docbook? [03:22] Andysalina5, no, but it is not slow either. I can use OpenOffice perfectly. Only intensive flash websites are noticeably slow. === z3ro3x_ is now known as z3ro3x [03:22] any help reguarding Control + mouse wheel up/down [03:22] tyoc: I would say to try gedit or emacs [03:22] Great Scott!! [03:23] mmm, ok [03:23] ic KurtKraut. Why dont you try xubuntu? [03:23] I have a new install of 9.10, package manager is broken with the following message: [03:23] E: Type 'Reading' is not known on line 54 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list [03:23] E: The list of sources could not be read.

[03:23] cn: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:23] RPG_Master: if you want a suggestion, what I do is make a .icons directory in my home folder for all the various icons I like to use for specific purposes [03:23] xorg on 9.1 stays at 90% cpu all the time [03:23] cn: I already replied to that, and you never answered. Did you edit your sources.list? [03:23] http://paste.ubuntu.com/304743/plain/ [03:23] calebH: Thanks for the suggestion :) [03:23] I lost my connection, so I don't know if my last message made it, so sorry if this is a repeat message. Marfi, In Rhythmbox music will be playing and randomly stops. The program becomes non-responsive and I end up having to kill it. [03:24] Andysalina5, because Xubuntu wouldn't interfere in the worst performance scenario: intensive flash websites. [03:24] z3ro3x: Did you update? [03:24] can anyone help me? [03:24] I understand KurtKraut [03:24] z3ro3x: From 9.04? [03:24] Marfi, I most have a day or so ago. [03:24] How much for your box KurtKraut? [03:24] now where would the individual icons be located? [03:24] I have a problem with 9.10, just installed it and after loading a few programs I got this message: http://paste.ubuntu.com/304743/plain/ [03:24] z3ro3x: I would say to do a clean install and see if that gets it [03:24] cn: Stop spamming your question. Did you or did you not edit your sources.list file? [03:24] anyone know how to set the dark theme on the new byobu (which was screen-profiles before)? [03:24] Marfi, I ran a clean install with a burned 9.10 RC 64 bit disc. [03:25] Andysalina5, how much I paid for it? 500 USD (in Brazil). It is an Eee PC. [03:25] wow [03:25] z3ro3x: Did you install the restricted drivers for the mp3's and whatnot? [03:25] Marfi, I was running the RC about a day or two after it came out. [03:25] thats a lot of cash for a celeron. How much do you want for it? [03:25] Marfi, I was having a problem with the paste didn't mean to spam [03:25] well... this sucks [03:25] turns out my problem is a known bug [03:25] how long does it take to upgrade Ubuntu? [03:25] daleharvey: byobu-select-profile, took me a bit to find it after I upgraded too [03:26] marfi I did edit it [03:26] I am getting the error "device not found" while trying to dual boot winxp with ubuntu karmic. I am currently booted from a live cd. I ran gparted and identified that the drive I want is /dev/sda/5. Inside of GRUB i used the "root" command and got Error 21: Selected disk does not exist. Anybody know whats going on? [03:26] Andysalina5, eletronics are expensive in latin America, mainly in Brazil. [03:26] cn: It's okay. But did you edit that file? If so, it loosk like you may have saved it wrong. I would nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list, and look around that line and see if you foobared it [03:26] Question - After installing Karmic, my 2 backup drives are not mount-able. I have no idea why. sudo blkid says nvidia-raid-member. I NEED the data on these disks. I had two for backups, and both are yielding this. I just... I need the data on them. Period. D one. Over. What did Karmic do? [03:26] Yeah KurtKraut. I could get the same thing here for under 200$ [03:26] Roasted: apt-cache search raid, and there should be a raidutils to install [03:26] daleharvey: you may need to install byobu-extras...not sure [03:27] marfi - why? what happened? I never set them up as raid - wtf is karmic doing? [03:27] Roasted: You just said it was in an nvidia-raid [03:27] I just found stuff to chuck in screenrc which copies it, cheers [03:27] Marfi, Yes, as I always to. I listen to a lot of music and watch tv shows and DVDs. Rhythmbox, Miro and Totem play every thing at the first. The issue I have is Rhythmbox and Miro will just randomly stop playing and the programs become none-responsive. Totem seems to be the only one that doesn't do it. [03:27] marfi - blkid says that. But I didnt do it. I never set these up as raid. Ever. But karmic sees them like that and I have no idea why. [03:27] the notebook remix version does not have a amd64 version , only a 32 bit version? [03:27] whats the best prog to remote to vnc/windows from ubuntu? [03:27] I'm having problems with my USB CD/DVD burner [03:27] z3ro3x: It could be trying to access a file it cannot see. I would see if there is a bug report for it [03:28] Marfi, Right now I'm using Totem to play my mp3's. [03:28] Roasted: Try to mount them as the individual disk [03:28] z3ro3x: But the random crashes? [03:28] well, i came here to ask for someones opinion about upgrading to 9.10. should i do it? [03:28] ok, last question, can I set my terminal to always open as byobu ? [03:28] WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! << could this be cause i can't do apt-get update ? [03:28] marfi - I have. No dice. [03:28] marfi - sudo fdisk -l says /dev/sdc1 and /dev/sdd1 exist. Yet when I try to mount, it says the device doesn't exist. [03:28] i turned on a blur effect with compiz and now my desktop is borked [03:29] how can i revert back that setting? [03:29] when I try burning an ISO, brasero stays at "Starting to record", and thinks the CD only has 12MB free [03:29] Roasted: ls /dev/sdc*. What do you see? [03:29] does anyone know what USE vim-with-x flag is? how to set it? [03:29] I was doing an upgrade from 9.04 -> 9.10 but the system overheated and shut off in the middle of the upgrade and now things are borked... after doing a chroot from the latest livecd, what can i do to try and fix the system === k is now known as Guest84241 [03:29] * mikeru wonders why doesn't it work... [03:29] Roasted: And is it the only drives? It may be /dev/sda, too [03:29] KurtKraut: where do you see that? [03:29] marfi - below with yellow text, highlighted in black, it just says /dev/sdc === Guest84241 is now known as kevin___ [03:29] trism, any other ideas? :( [03:29] KurtKraut: sorry, wrong user [03:29] does anyone know what USE vim-with-x flag is? how to set it? [03:29] k: where do you see that? [03:29] Roasted: Try /dev/sd* [03:30] Roasted: ls /dev/sd* [03:30] marfi - Im sorry - what? /dev/sdc1 and /dev/sdd1 are my two 250gb backup drives. [03:30] kevin___: is that for gentoo? [03:30] k: are you thinking of gvim ? [03:30] Roasted: Do you have any other drives, or are they your only ones? [03:30] my core 2 duo with ext3 running 32 bit jaunty took 17 secs to boot.. now same laptop with ext4 and 64 bit karmic take 1 min 6 secs.. is that normal? [03:30] lstarnes, i see that when attempting to copy from vim in console to os clipboard [03:30] how can i shut off compiz and reset the settings? [03:30] !vim [03:30] Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) - Terminal-based: nano, vi/vim, emacs - For HTML/CSS editors, see !html - For programming editors and IDE, see !code [03:30] kevin___: you can likely ignore that [03:30] marfi - I have 4 drives. 1 with vista/Ubuntu, one taht is 500gb, (dev sdb1) and sdc1 and sdd1 which are 250gb drives. [03:30] matman1, no, vim -- im trying to copy to console using vim [03:30] ugh. is there an official torrent for karmic? [03:31] Roasted: Pull one of the 250's out, and boot like that. It won't see them as a raid then [03:31] lstarnes, do you happen to know how to copy to clipboard using vim while in console? [03:31] Marfi, The programs aren't technically crashing. They just stop playing music after a while in spite of the fact if I restart Rhythmbox and start playing on the mp3 it froze on it plays fine for a while then locks up again after a minute or two. The locks ups don't happen the moment I start playing music, they happen after a minute or two after hitting the play button. [03:31] Roasted: What it may be doing is see that your motherboard supports raid. [03:31] LiteHedded: are you able to get to the gui (gnome/kde, etc) desktop at all? or does logging in drop your straight to terminal? [03:31] kevin___: you should be able to copy from it like any other terminal window [03:31] christ.. is software center working for anyone... I've tried about 100 installs and nothing works [03:31] <_atomic> sup? [03:31] no it's black [03:31] z3ro3x: I've also had it happen to me from a mal-formed ID3 tag [03:31] marfi - funny you mention that, I thought I remember reading reviews on newegg from people being bummed that my mobo did NOT support it. But who knows. [03:31] I'm in a terminal [03:31] kevin___: you may need the vim-full package [03:31] lstarnes, "should" being the operative word [03:31] marfi - thanks for your time brosef. I'm gona pull a 250 and see how it looks when I boot up after. [03:32] hello guys, i've downloaded the alternate-ubuntu-amd64 iso from 9.10. But its seems couldn't work, telling me it's not the right architecture. But i'm using amd turion X2 64. What could be the cause of the problem and how to solve this?

[03:37] Is there anyone who can help me with a linking problem? [03:37] LiteHedded: if you're certain that it's compiz causig the problem, do an apt-cache search for "compiz" (no quotes) make a listing of the packages with compiz in the name, and then run sudo aptitude purge [list of packages you wrote down from the search] [03:38] I dislike empathy so much : O [03:38] is it cause of the new release and people updating ? [03:38] marfi - you were right. pulled a 250 and I was able to mount the single 250. I put the 250 back in and its back to thinking its raid. wtf happened between jaunty and karmic? I made ZERO BIOS adjustments and I dont even think my BIOS supports raid. How can I zap it from ubuntu?

[03:41] what's the benefit of setting up LVM while installing ubuntu server? [03:41] Magnesium: yeah it is a fresh install [03:41] aaditya: lvm is awesome [03:41] cdm10: why changing it maes it work, and what is exactly the 'method' [03:41] aaditya: lvm volumes can be more easily resized and moved around [03:41] can I use an ISO of 9.10 live cd to update as opposed to doing a fresh install? [03:41] aaditya, ability to shift volumes and resize them [03:41] RenatoSilva: method is the sound system that Pidgin uses -- I guess one is buggy. [03:41] aaditya: are you asking about the benefits of LVM? :) [03:41] can anyone suggest a solution to my problem? [03:41] brocgiddens: you will need the alternate cd for that [03:41] brocgiddens: nope -- you can with the Alternate cd [03:41] dang it [03:41] cdm10: ok [03:41] brocgiddens: use the Alternate cd to upgrade from cd [03:41] brocgiddens: or you could use the update manager [03:41] lstarnes: damn. you got me.

THEN switch back to Automatic :) [03:42] i dont have those [03:42] is there anything to do to go from beta to release? [03:42] !final | fluid [03:42] fluid: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Karmic. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [03:42] ty [03:43] mikechelen: I thought about that. But what do I do while I am installing the distro itself on my harddisk when it asks for installing boot loader? [03:43] i figured as much, but i wanted to be sure. :) [03:43] Is there a way I can skip this step? [03:43] matman1_: Hmmm...can you put up your /etc/apt/sources.list into a pastebin? [03:43] ok, what does lvm cost? [03:43] TheCheeze: I'm just not sure what the problem could be. If it were me, I might try adding a command for a different browser to see if it is a gnome problem or something with firefox [03:43] I cant even disable gdm in 9.10 anyone know how? [03:43] oh nvm [03:43] aaditya: it's free [03:43] Hello, how do I upgrade to 9.10 from 9.04, from the console? [03:43] aaditya: it's available with ubuntu [03:43] dumb [03:43] calebH: well done that worked i switched it to the main server it was set to usa server [03:43] I want to change the default login screen with the list of known posix users .. how can I do that now in 9.10 ????

[03:43] <_JacK_> how does tcpdump capture unix socket traffic? [03:43] Magnesium: seems to be ok now [03:43] lstarnes: i'm talking about cost in terms of computing resources... [03:43] trism, maybe if i reinstall firefox [03:44] lstarnes: there are no free lunches, remember? :) [03:44] aaditya: not much more than regular partitioning [03:44] tomg555: from terminal try "update-manager -d" [03:44] okay, thank you [03:44] aaditya: the difference in load is most likely negligible [03:44] marfi I have looked around, is there a default version of sources.list that I can replace mine with [03:44] I have a PDF which seems to download data from the internet on a by request basis (page view leads to page download) [03:44] anyone know how to disable gdm in 9.10? [03:44] hi, does anyone know of an official[looking] page of what's new in 9.10? [03:44] who told me about synaptic for removing the en_GB in FF? [03:44] matman1_: Okay, great...actually, I was temporarily having some problems earlier today as well....ubuntu servers were down from the load. [03:44] mikechelen: I want my internal harddisk to be only a file system and fully encrypted. I know that we can't encrypt the boot partition. So, I am thinking about having my boot partition on a USB that I can have in my pocket and know that all of my harddrive data are kinda safe. [03:44] Is there a way I can download the PDF as a whole, with all pages located on the local hard rive? [03:44] lstarnes: can't find any ff package for en_US [03:44] ^drive [03:44] Anyone having any problems with lg2c? [03:45] lstarnes: do you know howq to remove those langs from FF [03:45] RenatoSilva: you'll need to remove the en_GB language support from the whole system, I think [03:45] Hmmm [Waiting for headers] .... Ubuntu 9.04 installer uses us.archive.ubuntu.com for main universe multiverse [03:45] newbie01: get the release notes from Ubuntu site. [03:45] RenatoSilva: I may be wrong though [03:45] matman1_: no prob. Side note: in my past experience I've noticed that sometimes the mirrors won't be updated with package updates as quickly as the main server (usually a day or two behind). FYI. If that bothers you, you can switch back to the main server in a few weeks when the big rush is over [03:45] shahd: release notes? thanks!! [03:45] this message is gone to after i completed apt-get update >> WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! [03:45] RenatoSilva: let me check [03:45] ubuntu rocks!

[03:45] !ot > newbie01 [03:45] newbie01, please see my private message [03:45] I guess Ubuntu is not on university repos [03:46] snth, hmm okay, well then does it matter what bootloader is installed on the hd? if you are going to delete that partition [03:46] RenatoSilva: actually, sudo aptitude purge mozilla-firefox-locale-en-gb [03:46] Lint: that's a bit harsh [03:46] calebH: well i'm using the main server now and it is ok :p [03:46] lstarnes: why can't I see that package in synaptic? [03:46] yeah thats kinda mean [03:46] RenatoSilva: it might have a different name [03:46] leaf-sheep, there's no such hash in the UbuntuHashes :/ [03:47] RenatoSilva: I'm checking from 8.04 [03:47] does someone know if LG USB CD/DVD drives are supported ? [03:47] not at all... there is #ubuntu-offtopic for puerile stuff [03:47] I'd say they're [03:47] is /etc/sudoers ever used for multi user systems? [03:47] lstarnes: ok [03:47] isola73dsh33p: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/MD5SUMS [03:47] mikechelen: No. the HD shouldn't even have bootloader, should it? [03:47] notjoe7: of course [03:47] matman1_: cool, enjoy [03:47] Can anyone point me to a fortran related channel? [03:47] all i see in my is root and %admin [03:47] leaf-sheep: I am not a beginner :) .. I really need this setup though. :p do you have any thoughts on it? [03:47] #fortran?? [03:47] lstarnes: if i use LVM, what's the catch? [03:48] mikeru: if they support regular USB Mass Storage Device protocols (almost all devices do), then they should [03:48] snth, doesn't sound like it, just the encrypted partition [03:48] aaditya: support [03:48] snth: What happen when if you lost the USB? :o [03:48] how do I restart X? [03:48] aaditya: some systems might not support LVM [03:48] aaditya: I'm not sure which ones though [03:48] leaf-sheep: use the backup usb :p. [03:48] also, is there an irssi option to hide extraneous joins/parts? [03:48] LiteHedded: Log out and log back in. [03:48] ctrl alt backspace isn't working [03:48] lstarnes: it's a new box, so apparently it does [03:48] LiteHedded: It's been disabled. [03:48] aaditya: /ignore #ubuntu joins quits parts nicks [03:48] leaf-sheep, my hash fits amd64. O: [03:48] !dontzap | LiteHedded [03:48] canthus13: can't do that if compiz is broken [03:48] LiteHedded: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. [03:48] what about installing dvd codecs and win32codecs is that in ubuntu repos somewhere ? [03:48] switch it on in keyboard properties === paultag_ is now known as paultag === john is now known as Guest34357 [03:48] Anyone having issues with 9.10 not recognizing an overclock? [03:49] leaf-sheep: it is easy to download a kernel, and make a startup boot USB again. .. it is no biggy [03:49] matman1_: it's in the medibuntu repos for ubuntu [03:49] LiteHedded: Switch to a virtual terminal and kill it from the command line. [03:49] LiteHedded, switch to terminal with ctrl+alt+f1 and kill the process [03:49] lstarnes: thanks [03:49] SAK has a similar effect? [03:49] for dvds do i just install libdvdread and run a script [03:49] Wrong. [03:49] Anyone here knows how to change the theme for GDM / Login Window ???/ [03:49] snth: Heh. You'll have to configure stuffs including cryptsetup, crypttab, initfs(sp) and whatnot. It can be pain in the butt. ;3 [03:49] TheFunkbomb, what's going on with your cpuspeed [03:49] SAK causes a kernel panic, for me. [03:49] Zap does not. [03:49] aaditya: I usually don't ignore those in order to prevent confusion [03:49] lstarnes: where do i find them :\ [03:49] =þ [03:49] @lstarnes: that's why I'm concerned. I think they do (they should, I've never seen an external USB burner that doesn't) but it won't burn. It reads discs but doesn't burn. [03:49] W [03:49] Similar, my -- ahem, eyeball. [03:49] DME [03:49] !medibuntu > matman1_ [03:49] matman1_, please see my private message [03:49] ah ignore me [03:49] DanaG - are you going to tell everyone that in every room your in? :P [03:49] @lstarnes: I remembered it burned in older versions of ubuntu [03:49] scott_ino2, I OCed my CPU from 2.5ghz to 3.3ghz via the bios. 9.10 still sees it at 2.5ghz [03:49] just upgraded to karmic and software center isnt there . how do i get it? [03:49] screen+capslock are playing tricks on me [03:49] leaf-sheep: I am sure it will be pain in the butt. That's why I am here talking to more advanced and smarter people than me to help me go through it :) [03:50] lstarnes: can't fid anything :( [03:50] DanaG - sorry ignore me [03:50] I am of the belief that help should be given first using a gui if avail and then via terminal if not avail, this stress tests the system as a whole and also keeps it simple for us simpletons, thoughts? [03:50] isola73dsh33p: Meaning your machine aren't capable of running amd64? [03:50] lstarnes: boring :( [03:50] TheFunkbomb, and you're sure you're not being restricted by cpuspeed [03:50] lstarnes: i'm inclined towards creating a single partition on this 640GB [03:50] DanaG - I thought I saw it in another channel as well [03:50] RenatoSilva: nothing with en-gb in it? [03:50] lstarnes: would it matter in general? [03:50] scott_ino2, I don't understand [03:50] aaditya: it might [03:50] almoxarife: Terminal is much simpler. [03:50] snth: Well, what do you want to do? I suppose it is easy if you plug in the usb and do the fresh installation and point the usb for /boot. [03:51] hey, does anyone have a problem with totem not playing stuff from youtube? i get this "Error Looking Up Video URI" [03:51] aaditya: I usually keep everything related to ubuntu in one partition with a spare swap partition, but it would probably be a good idea for me to separate /home [03:51] TheFunkbomb, cpuspeed regulates what your cpu runs at are you aware of this? not sure your level of understanding of linux [03:51] leaf-sheep: I have a VM running now to test that with. brb. [03:51] what process do i kill? [03:51] scott_ino2, it was fine in 9.04. I upgraded to 9.10 [03:51] lstarnes: got my answer. At this time, single partition. In future, LVM. [03:51] lstarnes: thanks for your time [03:51] snth: http://wejn.org/how-to-make-passwordless-cryptsetup.html#ed5e44ec607a374cc7496b66a7e37ce5 [03:51] almoxarife: canthus13 is right, in that you can easily copy & paste most commands given here, whereas "click here, click there" instructions can he harder to follow... [03:51] karmic koala installation is very slow [03:51] is quick search in synaptic broken for everyone else? [03:51] aaditya: you can use multiple partitions without LVM [03:52] terminal is great for the terminal efficient types, when there is a gui I wan to use it, if I wanted back to dos I would love to learn linux terminal, my opinion [03:52] aaditya: it might be a good idea to keep a separaye swap partition [03:52] *separate [03:52] lstarnes: it's a box i'm preparing for someone else, so I'm avoiding anything that might create a support issue. [03:52] lstarnes: yes, separate swap of course [03:52] nm got it [03:52] ok i want to add Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" to my xorg.conf file to get the best performance from my intel grafix card, would it mess up my system if i just make a xorg.conf file?? [03:52] does upgrading 8.04 -> 9.10 require the intermediate steps? [03:53] snth: Basically you would want to place the cryptkey on the usb (in /boot) so crypttab can access and read and unlock the cryptsetup (and lvm if included). [03:53] leaf-sheep: haha that's awesome. That was going to be my second question. How to avoid typing in the password, and use a private key or something. [03:53] lol [03:53] dibblego: yes [03:53] daleharvey proves my point, terminal does not see a broken synaptic, I know its not broke but the point is still valid [03:53] leaf-sheep: I am going through the installation now. I just wanna see if I can assign the USB to /boot during installation. [03:53] lstarnes, thanks [03:54] TheFunkbomb, so cat /proc/cpuinfo is showing what... 2.4 as max? [03:54] hey guys, is there a way to check if a user is using ecryptfs ? [03:54] snth: Complicated complicated. For me, it took me a while before I was able to create a cryptkey and get the machine to read the key off the usb... Otherwise, no boot. [03:54] snth: Alright. That link I gave you... helped clearing up lot of things. Good luck! ^_^ [03:54] almoxarife: is there something you need gui help with, or are you just trying to make a point? [03:55] karmic koala is very slow when installing at IBM Thinkcentre / Intel i865g graphics [03:55] scott_ino2, it says 1600 mhz [03:55] anyone having issue in 9.10 when running update manager? [03:55] !anyone | MrSchmo [03:55] MrSchmo: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [03:55] leaf-sheep: thanks. I am reading through it. And, does that mean you have this setup? [03:55] Was 9.10 released? [03:55] so the audio on my intel chipset sounds like crap in karmic now. I get a pop before and sometimes after any audio is played. never had this problem in older ubuntu. anyone have a suggestion? I have tried switching the audio system back to alsa. still get the pops... [03:55] MrSchmo: if it's taking a long time to update, it's because the mirrors are overloaded due to the release [03:55] crohakon: yes [03:55] MrSchmo: did you autoselect a mirror? [03:56] lstarnes; should I bother updating yet? lol [03:56] MrSchmo: i mean, did you use the feature to auto-select the fastest mirror? [03:56] snth: Yeah. XBMC + Encrypted 2TB HDD = WIN! [03:56] crohakon: that's up to you [03:56] this stupid little dialog box won't go away :( [03:56] crohakon: I'm still on 8.04 [03:56] is empathy supposed to have an icon in the notification area in 9.10 [03:56] http://imagebin.ca/view/eGl9Ao.html [03:56] maxxist: pulse still running? [03:56] join #ubuntu-br [03:56] leaf-sheep: haha .. what do you do when you lose your USB? [03:56] lstarnes: so am I [03:56] lstarnes; well, I think I will stick with 9.04 for a while and let them work any bugs out. [03:56] almoxarife, should i just completely remove it? [03:56] something's a bit weird, I just upgraded using alternate cd and when I run update manager after the upgrade, it's doing another distro upgrade [03:56] hoser: how do you do that? chose the fastest [03:56] thanks guys :) [03:57] http://imgur.com/don6A.png DONT TALK SHIT ABOUT TOTAL! [03:57] maxxist: I won't answer that [03:57] snth: I leave it mounted most of the time and I have a copy of "cloud.key" <-- I named it. <3 [03:57] lol tourettes script [03:57] TheFunkbomb, what does it say for stepping [03:57] snth: Also, if the USB key is not detected, it'll prompt for passphrase -- but that would mean I have to plug the keyboard in. [03:57] On both my PC's, the restart didn't work after the install completed, but I reset it and it still worked ok [03:57] scott_ino2, 10 [03:57] how can I backup the PGP keys of the source list . because I want to make a clean installation of ubuntu karmic [03:57] pingya: they seem to be disabled by default in karmic, there is probably an option in the prefs to enable it (pidgin in karmic was the same way for me) [03:57] this stupid little dialog box won't go away :( http://imagebin.ca/view/eGl9Ao.html [03:57] almoxarife, lol. i have never had much success with pulse. thats why i first suspected it. [03:57] Help mah :O [03:58] the_hoser, i dunno even know where to select the auto-select option in update manager [03:58] Hey everyone, I can't seem to burn a cd of 9.10 that doesn't fail the integrity check, anyone know what I can do? [03:58] snth: It depends on one's setup. The best thing about linux -- is that it can be customized right down to the core. [03:58] when acpi=off is used, is a laptop's fan forced to full speed or does it just stay off? [03:58] brocgiddens: System > Administration > Software Sources > Click on the box next to "Download From" > Other... > Select Best Server [03:58] leave [03:58] pingya: they seem to really want us to use the indicator applet [03:58] maxxist: I can say I don't have those issues, but I don't have pulse running [03:58] leaf-sheep, i'm not sure what do you mean. :/ [03:58] left [03:58] MrSchmo read what I said to brocgiddens [03:58] leaf-sheep: gotcha, so you do have boot loader setup on your hd as well. [03:58] trism...I got rid of that little applet. It seemed redundant [03:58] leaf-sheep: just in case the usb isn't mounted. [03:58] isola73dsh33p: It mean your machine aren't capable of running amd64 if it said that. Use 32bit instead. [03:59] Hey, using 9.10. Sound is working fine, however there is no sound in flash. I have an external USB sound card, and I think the reason has to do with 'default' cards.. but for some reason there is no asoundconf anymore. And asoundconf-gtk installs hte pulse audio volume controller that i cant open because it says connection refused.. Any ideas? [03:59] TheFunkbomb, can you humor me and right click on the panel and click add to panel and start the cpu frequency monitor up [03:59] hoser: got it, thanks [03:59] almoxarife, i have a simpler question then. how does one make sure pulse is not running? without removing it. hehe [03:59] maxxist: you will lose the volume applet though, something to consider, unless of course you loaed gnome alsa mixer :) [03:59] I'm trying to mount an ntfs-partition in fstab, but I'm not sure what to write [03:59] TheFunkbomb, and see what the max is there, im guessing its gonna say 2.5, but im just double checking [03:59] snth: I leave the /boot on the hard drive. Yes. However, the crypttab script are written to check for USB key first to load private key, otherwise, fall back to passphrase. [03:59] * mikeru wonders about the acpi=off question [04:00] maxxist: can't tell you how in karmic, I did it in jaunty, and I don't know what would happen if you followed the directions for jaunty === saulus_ is now known as SauLus [04:00] almoxarife, think i am about to try it. [04:00] maxxist: good luck [04:00] I broke 2000 MMB [04:00] MB* [04:01] Almost there, almost updated.. how long does it usually take to install all the packages? [04:01] So I downloaded the 9.10 amd64 cd iso and loop mounted it [04:01] scott_ino2, I don't see where it says anything about the max [04:01] How do I mount an ntfs-partition in fstab? [04:01] leaf-sheep: hmm, I am trying to decide whether I like this better .. or have an entirely unusable hd if the USB isn't in. [04:01] ok....selected best server....updated repos.... [04:01] almoxarife, my question is really. If I am experiencing this problem. wouldnt many people with the intel chipset? and how would this bug make it into a final release.. [04:01] when you click on the applet it should list out the various clock speeds [04:01] scott_ino2, what applet? [04:01] snth: It depends on one's setup. Like I said earlier. :) [04:01] shouldnt it pop up? [04:01] maxxist: I bet they do, they live with it I guess, I don't want to live with it [04:02] Need help- Installed 64-bit Karmic today on my AMD64, and after reboot all I get is grub 1.97 and then a text login prompt to get in to ubuntu. No graphical OS present. Not sure what I did wrong. Anyone have thoughts? [04:02] almoxarife, ditto [04:02] wait [04:02] TheFunkbomb, sorry, I asked if you could just humor me and right-click on your top panel and select "add to panel" then select, "cpu frequency monitor" and hit add [04:02] snth: I'm planning to get a secondary hard drive -- Mainly for booting / system configuration and leave the large hard drive sole for data storage. [04:02] leaf-sheep, but the hash is identical to the one for amd64. :/ [04:02] crap i needed to get the alternate install cd [04:02] scott_ino2, I missed that [04:02] >>>>>>>>>!!!!!!! [04:02] hold on [04:02] isola73dsh33p: I know. And when you boot up the disc, it say what? [04:03] John47: any errors upon boot or during install? [04:03] scott_ino2, it was being scaled! [04:03] snth: So the secondary hard drive will be small as possible (in size). 20GB will be sufficient. :> [04:03] thanks [04:03] leaf-sheep, nothing, just the dialog for preparing upgrade [04:03] TheFunkbomb, np [04:03] after selecting best servers...still no updates available for me [04:04] TheFunkbomb, that was just easier than using the command line [04:04] scott_ino2, so if I restart conky, will it see it was 3.33 ghz now? [04:04] huh··· [04:04] if i make a xorg.conf file and add Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" will it mess up my computer,, when i make a xorg.conf file in the past i make it swo i couldnt log in untill i del the xorg.conf file [04:04] isola73dsh33p: Run 'uname -m' -- What does it say? [04:04] brocgiddens: No, no errors. When I loaded the live cd I got a lot of kernel errors though - I googled and it sounded like when people updated the linux headers that was fixed... [04:04] TheFunkbomb, perhaps... unless there's another issue happening [04:04] leaf-sheep, i686 O_O [04:05] John47: has it booted any into GUI after install? [04:05] isola73dsh33p: That's 32bit. :) [04:05] scott, I guess there is one [04:05] isola73dsh33p: So you downloaded the wrong iso -- You wanted the i386. >:(|) [04:05] leaf-sheep, but why? on my laptop it says amd turion X2 64 D: [04:05] when's #ubuntu+1 going to be up and running [04:05] brocgiddens: No, no GUI. And no Grub2....weird. I have my home partition separate, so I formatted the /boot and / partitions when installing the new version. [04:06] TT_TT [04:06] !schedule | sagaci [04:06] sagaci: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases [04:06] sorry... scott_ino2 I guess there is one [04:06] I'll get this figured out [04:06] TheFunkbomb, I'd check the release notes, maybe they changed something in cpuspeed (which is what regulates cpu frequency) [04:06] isola73dsh33p: Well -- You burned and run the ISO at bootup, it stopped you right there. [04:06] I'm having an issue in trying to install ubuntu 9.10 as it says not enough room on /boot. I went into Synaptics and removed all the extra kernel headers anything I can do to increase space on /boot ? [04:06] scott_ino2, good idea [04:06] John47: also try to login when you get that prompt and see if you can "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" to update the headers you were talking about [04:07] how can i chown a directory and all its files/subdirs at once? [04:07] courpse: chown -R [04:07] that does subs as well? [04:07] yes [04:07] courpse: -R = recursive [04:07] -r is usually the recursive option [04:07] trism, yes. that does seem to be the case [04:07] scott_ino2, thanks for your help :) [04:08] np [04:08] brocgiddens: oh, now there's an idea....hmmm....not sure if I need to just do this over again, but I was getting kernel errors on both the Karmic RC and now with the final version on 64-bit. I didn't get those errors initially when I tried the 32 bit version. Weird [04:08] Yeah, coz i tried that, and i still have locked files. [04:08] leaf-sheep: If I decided to encrypt the whole hd, do you know if I still can detect if the hd has free space or not without booting into it? [04:08] Is there anyway I can use gparted to format a thumb drive without having to have root to use said thumbdrive? [04:08] leaf-sheep, u mean i should burn the iso into a cd? [04:08] isola73dsh33p: How did you try to install by the way? [04:09] isola73dsh33p: Yes, that was the idea. [04:09] John47: you could try login and update or just simply reinstall as long as you have nothing critical you'd lose....if all else fails go back to 32 bit, personally I have RC or 64 bit and no probs [04:09] brocgiddens: Thanks so much for your tip - I will give it a shot and check back! :-) [04:09] on desktop, using mount -o loop [04:09] Decessus, ummm a live cd [04:09] snth: You'll have to access in to see the content first. [04:09] John47: good luck [04:09] if i make a xorg.conf file do i have to capitalise the x i Xorg [04:09] leaf-sheep, on desktop, using mount -o loop [04:09] how come my widgets won't stay in place on a reboot, in KDE? [04:10] webbb82: no. if you do it will not work [04:10] webbb82, the correct path is /etc/X11/xorg.conf [04:10] scott_ino2, but, gparted is not an included program and you need the superuser pass to use it anyway [04:10] Hey, using 9.10 and konqueror. Flash video is fine. Kde/mp3 Sound is working fine, however there is no sound in flash. I have an external USB sound card, and I think the reason has to do with 'default' cards.. but for some reason there is no asoundconf anymore. And asoundconf-gtk installs the pulse audio volume controller.. but i cant even open that because it says connection refused.. Any ideas? (I've already tried installing alsa [04:10] -oss and libflashsupport) [04:10] helloo! im using ubuntu 9.04, i got an iomega external drive, always used in a mac, but now when i connect it to ubuntu i dont have write permissions, never protected it on mac or something like that [04:10] Decessus, might have to use something else then like knoppix [04:10] that has it === ryanCH is now known as MoonshineBear [04:10] ok last time i made one and add'd stuff when i went to reboot it wouldnt let me log in until i del the xorg file [04:11] And anyway, I find it very silly to have to boot into another instance just to format a flash drive ;\ [04:11] isola73dsh33p: Well -- Make a backup of your precious data. Burn the ISO to the disc. Reboot with disc inside. If things goes fine, you can install Ubuntu amd64. Otherwise, it would halt and say wrong architecture. [04:11] and add Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" to my xorg [04:11] helloo! im using ubuntu 9.04, i got an iomega external drive, always used in a mac, but now when i connect it to ubuntu i dont have write permissions, never protected it on mac or something like that [04:11] b0w maybe you mounted it without write permissions please w8 a mmoment [04:11] Decessus, formatting requires root privileges ... it's built that way for a reason, is this not your comp? [04:11] So, I'm trying to make an image of my hard drive, but when I boot in to my 9.10 live CD, neither the "software center" nor apt-get can seem to install partimage. === IndyGunFreak_ is now known as IndyGunFreak [04:12] Hello. Could anyone help me with a Sony Memory Stick? [04:12] obiwan_: i just plug in the usb, didnt set any particular mount options [04:12] leaf-sheep, looks like i need to buy a cd. TT_TT.. anyhow thanks very much for the help :) [04:12] * scott_ino2 is so glad i don't have to esplain fstab to users anymore... at least for the most part [04:13] zodiacpup: maybe they can help more if you tell what the problem is [04:13] scott_ino2, no, it is my computer, but there is a difference between hd* and sd*, so I think for plug and play drives there should be an exception, or at the least, not set it's owner to root when it's formatted. [04:13] Can anybody explain the difference between "aBrowser" and Firefox? Sure looks the same to me [04:13] HI everyone [04:13] b0w: use mode=0777 [04:13] b0w: or mode=0700 [04:14] Does anyone know how to stream nzb's in ubuntu? [04:14] bigfootbuilt: i think abrowser was the name firefox 3.5 it got on ubuntu 9.04 === chuck_ is now known as ctmjr [04:14] isola73dsh33p: You could do installation from USB. Nevertheless, do back up your PRECCCIOUS DATA first. [04:14] b0w: I started the computer with the memory inserted in the slot, but nothing is shown, when I switch it to an SD card, it does appears, but I don't know if I need any drivers or what. [04:14] hello [04:14] Decessus, didn't think it did that... or shouldn't at least [04:14] Hi there. I'm in File Backup Manager and I'm trying to back up to my USB key, but it's telling me that I don't have permission. What do I do? [04:14] i tristan [04:14] is there anything one can do to make the karmic koala repositories faster [04:14] obiwan_: ok, hahaha how can i do that? [04:14] w8 for d3 tristan_ ehehe [04:14] scott_ino2, unfortunately, it does ;( [04:14] Should I not be trying to use partimage for making an image, or is that not the package name? [04:15] I am not able to upgrade even with a considerably faster connection [04:15] vikb : choose the best mirror.. [04:15] or it has every time I've used it [04:15] vikb: Shut the computer down. Wait a week. Boot up and retry. :) [04:15] Decessus, just chmod the drive and be done with it if you have root access :) [04:15] Oh, nevermind, all betterish now. [04:15] b0w: use the mount like always, but with the mode=0777 value in it, for example mount.ext4 /dev/sdb /mount/point mode=0777 [04:15] bradpitt: I did an upgrade from update manager it does not let me choose a mirror [04:16] scott_ino2, I did that, but when that was done, it wouldn't auto mount [04:16] zodiacpup: after plugging it in type dmesg and check if its recognizing it [04:16] gack ... apt-get update doesn't complete on my jaunty install. [04:16] leaf-sheep, how can i boot from USB? [04:16] leaf-sheep: Waiting for a week.... Sky will fall on my head ;) [04:16] obiwan_: ok let me give it a try [04:16] b0w: in the terminal? [04:16] b0w: You want to chown your USB to get write access. [04:16] ubu-noob: ? [04:16] can i upgrade to 9.10 stable from beta? how? [04:16] isola73dsh33p, first step is making sure your bios allows boot from usb [04:17] Decessus, weird... never had that happen [04:17] my cron isn't running by default [04:17] ok b0w that's the only possible solution i know, if that doesn't work i can't help more :/ [04:17] !final | William-Ubuntu [04:17] William-Ubuntu: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Karmic. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [04:17] obiwan_: ok let me give it a try, but mounting it on ext4 wouldnt make some problem on the external drive when i connect it back to a mac? [04:17] vikb : system->administration->software sources and then choose the mirror near you. [04:17] isola73dsh33p: It is complicated. You're better off using a blank disc. :) [04:17] leaf-sheep: yeah thats what i want [04:17] Hello. Anyone here use dnscache-run? I installed the package, and it is listening on 127.0.0.1, but I want it to listen on my network addy so the other machines on this network can use it. [04:17] scott_ino2, yeah, It may have been a bad install, but it is very annoying lol [04:17] Decessus, how to make sure? [04:17] can someone please help me with streaming nzb's while they are downloading? or keeping incomplete rar extracts. I usually like to see the quality of the movie before downloading to save bandwidth. thanks [04:17] Decessus, well im sorry... seems it's an odd situation and quite frustrating [04:18] noe b0w , but that was an example, you must substitute the fields with your disk values, if it's fat 32, then mount.vfat and if it's on sdc1 then /dev/sdc1 [04:18] b0w: "cd /media ; ls -l" --> List what? [04:18] yeah its ntfs [04:18] thnaks leaf-sheep [04:18] Hi got some problems trying to log in. The shell keeps "flashing" after I ran envyng to int [04:18] give me a sec ill be back [04:18] isola73dsh33p, you will have to shut down your computer and get into your bios setup, then in boot device priority, check to see if 'usb device' or 'other device' is present (I find this method easier than googling it) [04:18] to install ati drivers. [04:18] Beastmode, what usenet client are you using? [04:19] ok b0w then mount.ntfs [04:19] I can't get into the GDM stage [04:19] mikechelen, i got a couple that i have tried on ubuntu (just switched from windows). I have pan, klibido, and nzb [04:19] Decessus, thanks :) [04:20] Hi there. I'm in File Backup Manager and I'm trying to back up to my USB key, but it's telling me that I don't have permission. What do I do? [04:20] vikb : and after you reload. open the terminal and then type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [04:20] MasterofPuppets, You're having same problem as b0w does. Run "cd /media ; ls -l" --> It lists what? [04:20] hi guys, where can I get the loadbar for clearlooks? I want to use it as a loadbar in flash... [04:21] Everytime I try to type anything even 1 keypress it is sent elsewhere (to the top left of the screen where there is a flashing cursor) [04:21] leaf-sheep, btw, does the usb needs to be empty? I mean should it just containt the iso? [04:21] wow, my emacs is really slow [04:21] what's a good wiki/blog that i can install locally to collect my notes/procedures? thanks [04:21] leaf-sheep: Messaged you it [04:21] b0w: did the dmesg, what should I look for? [04:21] like, I can see the redraw happen when I page up / down [04:21] isola73dsh33p, yes, the device should start empty [04:21] firefox seems really fast [04:22] isola73dsh33p: It will have to be empty. It should not contain the ISO.

I can't right-click on the background either [04:28] zey : its all up to you. if you're on dual-boot you may want to use upgrade instead of fresh install unless you have back up your data. but if you're on single boot like me i recommend you to do fresh install, make sure you back up your data first. unless you have different home and / partitions.

[04:29] !final cxo [04:29] Sorry, I don't know anything about final cxo [04:29] I did it with an old Fedora server many years ago, and it's still running in a VM on my ubuntu server. It does mail, imap, basic web, etc. [04:29] er [04:29] leaf-sheep: Ok, that worked, but now the USB is saying that there are files on it that can't be removed... a folder called "lost + found" [04:29] lockd, thanks :) [04:29] !final | cxo [04:29] in the file properties, it says the codec is "Microsoft Windows Media 9" [04:29] cxo: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Karmic.

[04:30] lstarnes: thank you for the clarification [04:30] mikeo: are you going to use virtualbox or VMware? [04:30] not sure yet [04:30] leaf-sheep: It wants to delete it, though, and it can't, so it just stops the action :( [04:30] exit [04:30] ?exit [04:30] MasterofPuppets: Hmm, run the command again with -R (for recursively).

I intend to select the option to use the largest continuous free space as I want to dual boot with windows (yes, I know!). Will this option automatically generate an appropriately sized swap partition or should I specify the partitions manually? [04:30] thinking about using vmware player [04:30] lockd, oh, so what] [04:30] Are you going to continue using the disk or are you going to turn it into an image and still it on a new disk [04:30] MasterofPuppets: chown -R <--- same stuffs here [04:31] boknoy: was just mentioning it so you'd know that's not the one you want [04:31] volante: that particular bug was marked invalid, not sure why but the duplicate is now in triaged state so the best answer is 'maybe'. [04:31] vmware player only works with an existing VMware image [04:31] peepsalot : ubuntu-restricted-extras? [04:31] lockd, sorry, pressed enter too fast. I meant to say: "So what's the name of the theme?

[04:31] <_Dasda> Can someone please help me with nzb issues in ubuntu? thanks [04:31] and then maybe imaging that [04:31] hi ppl [04:31] JonathanEllis, no, you need to tell it to only use as much as the drive as you want it to [04:31] onats, mediawiki or docuwiki are good and easy to install, they are more system intensive though since it uses a full web server [04:31] MasterofPuppets: What was the command? Since you're trying to remove stuffs? o.O [04:31] lockd, I was supposed to type ' but accidentally pressed enter :) === Russss is now known as RussellAlan [04:32] mikeo: ok, I suggest you check the docs for whatever VM solution you are going to use. [04:32] i updated to 9.10 and didnt update my menu.lst and now it boots the wrong kernal [04:32] boknoy: I have no idea, use Appearance to see what theme you have set. the Ubuntu default is "Human" [04:32] leaf-sheep: I'm in File Backup Manager, I have it set to backup to /media/Backup. But it won't backup without erasing over everything on the drive, which is lost + found [04:32] bradpitt, ah, i just found the answer through google, for some reason the hue slider in the preferences got set all the way to the left, whereas it should have been in the middle [04:32] _Dasda, what's the issue? [04:32] mikeo: all the info for running off of an existing disk vs. an image should be there. [04:32] lockd, ok thanks, I'll check it. :) [04:32] could someone tell me what options i should put in [04:32] yeah will do [04:32] hi every one [04:32] thanks for the help [04:32] _Dasda, maybe try lottanzb? dunno which has that feature [04:32] MasterofPuppets: You could remove it manually. [04:32] mikeo: no problem, best of luck [04:33] MightyTweek: You mean it wont generate a swap partition? It will just fill up the free space with my root partition? [04:33] can i just point it to the kernal or do ihave to know the uuid aswell? [04:33] <_Dasda> MightyTweek: Everytime I try downloading nzb's in ubuntu. I get disconnected from internet and router has to be reset [04:33] karmic just installed, and now I can't login, anyone help ? [04:33] MasterofPuppets: Use "sudo rm -r /media/Backup/lost" [04:33] <_Dasda> mkechelen, ok ill try searching for lottanzb [04:33] JonathanEllis, I believe that's correct [04:33] _Dasda, sounds like a router problem, maybe try throttling download? [04:33] leaf-sheep: I didn't have to, it started working after I kept asking it to lol [04:33] _Dasda, you might want to see if there is updated firmware for your router [04:33] leaf-sheep: I still appreciate everything you've done though, thanks! :) [04:34] * MasterofPuppets is so excited to install Karmic [04:34] how can i make my wifi connection permanent (using wpa_supplicant) instead of requiring an X session? [04:34] MightyTweek: Thanks. For a machine with only 1GB of RAM what is a sensible size for the swap partition? [04:34] MasterofPuppets: No problem. :) [04:34] i am new to linux, running ubuntu 8.04, trying to figure out how to get my mp3's to play === MoonshineBear is now known as ryanCH [04:34] can anyone help me fix my login issues with karmic ? [04:34] JonathanEllis: 2 gigs. [04:34] <_Dasda> mikechelen: it only happens if i use my laptop (ubuntu) to download nzb's. My desktop downloads them fine without messing up router [04:34] MasterofPuppets: What backup package are you using? [04:34] KB1JWQ: Thanks [04:34] <_Dasda> MightyTweek: yea I have the latest firmware installed [04:35] !fstab | b0w [04:35] b0w: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [04:35] BlackEyes: and does other music play? [04:35] agoole: more details....

[04:36] hi [04:36] agoole: are you saying that X doesn't startup? [04:36] agoole: in other words, you can login at a virtual console, but no X (gdm) [04:36] leaf-sheep: Sorry, what do you mean? What backup set? [04:36] jeffhmb: it does, I see a login window, and when I hit the login it just freezes [04:36] MasterofPuppets: I mean the /media/Backup -- What app does that? ;o [04:36] jeffhmb: X starts up, but freezes after I login [04:37] Hello [04:37] agoole: then you c-a-F1 to go to a text console? [04:37] jeffhmb: can't restart it from the console either [04:37] _Dasda, not sure what to tell you, except it sounds like a router issue [04:37] I saved a desktop profile, now ubuntu freezes when its loading the stuff that was saved [04:37] lockd: movies play fine, downloaded the ubuntu restricted formats through the package manager, even downloaded audacious and amarok just to see if maybe it was the program i was using [04:37] jeffhmb: yup, in here now [04:37] I stumped on sshfs [04:37] anyone install the 9.10 netbook remix? can u please pm me with help... === pooky1 is now known as sheroux [04:37] if I login to recover mode, what can I delete for it to forget the saved session [04:37] !sshfs | stuck1 [04:37] stuck1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS [04:37] agoole: anything running as your userid besides your current shell (ps -ef). [04:37] BlackEyes, try VLC as well [04:38] BlackEyes: and audio does work with the movies? [04:38] hmm have a problem i got 2 monitor..i can move stuff from one windows to another no problem..but when i try to move my mouse over to the right hand monitor i cant.. [04:38] lockd: yes, audio works fine [04:38] jeffhmb: yes I see a ton of stuff, apache among other things [04:38] Has anybody else noticed that wifi is slow on Karmic? [04:38] Hey, guys, how to change gdm themes in Ubuntu 9.10? [04:38] Anyone with 2 Nvidia cards and 3 monitors connected through DVI and have a working xorg.conf + xinemera please msg me [04:38] !gdm [04:38] Sorry, I don't know anything about gdm [04:38] leaf-sheep: Um, the application? It's called File Backup Manager [04:39] lockd: ill give vlc a quick dl see how it treats me [04:39] Yep I'm confused... Does client create username for himself on remote computer with sshfs first and then adds himself to fuse group? [04:39] agoole: try "ps -fu agoole" (or whatever your username is on the box [04:39] leaf-sheep: Or do you mean, how did I name the USB drive "Backup"? [04:39] how do i disable chat logging in empathy? [04:39] I am setting up Karmic desktop dual booting with windows. Windows is already installed in the first primary partition. I am manually setting partitions as I want a swap partition. The only other partition will be the ubuntu root partition. Since there will only be three partitions is it best to use primary partitions so I can resize them at will if I later decide that windows is taking up too much space? [04:39] Just not sure [04:39] MasterofPuppets: Ahh -- Neermind. I was curious. ;) [04:39] leaf-sheep: thanks, ill check fstab out [04:39] where can i download the alternated cd from for 9.10? i am currently using 8.10 [04:39] stuck1: I use sshfs [04:39] jeffhmb: I got 2 things mostly, bash and irssi, but I think i just killed the display not too long ago [04:39] agoole: ok, that's fine [04:39] Oh. Actually there will be four partitions as I put a separate swap partition in for windows [04:40] leaf-sheep: Sorry, I'm a complete Linux nub :( [04:40] karmii: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ [04:40] karmii-> perhaps wait a week or two, alternatecd is not usually ready at 1st day [04:40] agoole: have you tried startx? [04:40] stuck1: to make my friend's filesystem appear inside my home, I just "sshfs him:/ ~/him" [04:40] jeffhmb: yeah, it switches over to the display but I just get a black screen [04:40] l [04:40] going to take a while for me to get used to using a manager and or compiling my programs [04:40] n8tuser: ok [04:40] stuck1: where "him" is the name of the folder in my home directory to mount his filesystem, and also the name of the ssh account [04:41] agoole: anything unusual in the messages printed to the console? [04:41] Okay is your user name on his computer [04:41] mike999: perhaps the guy that posted this can give you some insight http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_p3X7CdE2oc [04:41] dooglus-> it is called mountpoint === hotmail is now known as Madden10 [04:41] hi, how do I find what is starting dmraid in my boot process? I don't have a RAID array and I've purge the dmraid package but I still see a dmraid process started in my bootchart [04:41] stuck1: I define the hostname, username, port, etc. in ~/.ssh/config [04:41] jeffhmb: no, all seems normal, points to my xorg fine, no errors [04:41] n8tuser: can i upgarde from any versin of ubuntu to 9.10 with an laternate cd? [04:41] n8tuser: I know that. stuck1 might not [04:41] karmii: no [04:41] agoole: what about using the failsafe session? [04:41] karmii: you have to upgrade from 9.04 [04:42] What now thats really thrown me [04:42] I think i found something in syslog that might explain what is with the strange automatic shutdowns (can't believe i didn't see it before): http://kohlrak.pastebin.com/d4357f372 Can anyone tell me what this means? [04:42] My memory stick isn't detected when I plug it in, even before starting the computer. Do I have to download any drivers to get it working or something? Seriously, this is getting annoying... [04:42] jeffhmb: can I do that from the terminal ? [04:42] where does gnome saved its background ? [04:42] hi guys, is there a way to fully activate samba between Vista and Ubuntu Jaunty/karmic whitout user accounts ?? preparing for a backup and its not fully working both ways [04:42] karmii nope, besides do a new install instead of upgrade, upgrades usually are problematic [04:42] where does gnome saved its background settings ? [04:42] i installed ubuntu 9.10, and i managed to import my pgp keys, but when i went o try to encrypt, the right click isnt there, did they remove it? and remove the import key thing too? [04:42] n8tuser: ok [04:42] thanks [04:42] sheroux-> it does not makes sense. both systems needs authorizations.. [04:42] stuck1: I could just run: ssh him@his.host.com:/home/him ~/him [04:43] hi, I'm not sure what's wrong, I think it may have something to do with pulse-audio but sound has not been working for me ever since interpid, and I'm now using karmic and it's still not working, can anyone please help? [04:43] stuck1: if I didn't want to define the hostname, username, etc. [04:43] hm [04:43] anyone install the netbook remix version? can you please msg me with help..... [04:43] annoyance #1 for karmic koala: Where did the delete key go? [04:43] stuck1: What are you confused about? I'll help. :) [04:43] n8tuser:i know but i only wanna copy file from ubuntu -> vista, then do revers [04:43] ok, before I give up on this community, considering how many people have frozen screens during the install process and trouble with reading from installation media, is it an acknowledged problem? and is there anything I can do to help debug it [04:43] where is xorg.conf in ubuntu 9.10 [04:43] Why did you get rid of the delete key functionlaity and how do you get it back? [04:43] doog but do you need your account name on your mates machine [04:43] hey guys, just a quick note for something that happened with me, i have 1 gb of ram, and 1 gb of swap. upon installation, only 10% of the ram was used and 27% swap, and it was swapping like crazy. anyway, if anyone else gets this problem, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1292582 has a solution [04:44] Or do you use his? [04:44] agoole: try "startx -- -config /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe" [04:44] stuck1: No. You don't have to create a new account on your mate's computer. You (local) install sshfs then add yourself to a new group (fuse). Then from this point on, you can sshfs in anywhere that you can ssh in. [04:44] sheroux-> try to use sshfs, it will mount a network drive, and i think even ntfs but you may have to use ntfs-3g [04:44] KungFuJesus: that seems like a bug, what do you mean "where did the delete key go". does "DEL" not work when typing a document? [04:44] jeffhmb: ok give me a sec [04:44] stuck1: In this case, you can use your mate's username; password -- Or you can use an account that your mate created for you (on his system). [04:44] n8tuser: those are packages or apps ? [04:45] KungFuJesus: or do you mean you can't use del in Nautilus? [04:45] has anyone else had a segfault trying to run empathy on a reasonably fresh karmic install? [04:45] wewt, finally got ubuntu fully updated [04:45] Nautilus/Gnome has removed delete key functionality completely [04:45] sheroux-> sshfs ? its an utilities app [04:45] thanks leaf just needed someone to confirm! [04:45] ya, empathy is having problems [04:45] im sticking with Pidgin [04:45] EvRide: ah, thanks.. [04:45] i installed ubuntu 9.10, and i managed to import my pgp keys, but when i went to try to encrypt, the right click option to encrypt isnt there, did they remove it? and remove the import key thing too? [04:45] KungFuJesus: does it work AT ALL in other apps? [04:45] Thats sounds better! [04:45] as in "remove file". The convention of delete sending to trash and shift delete just doing rm is a convention I'm so used to [04:45] My memory stick isn't detected when I plug it in, even before starting the computer. Do I have to download any drivers to get it working or something? Seriously, this is getting annoying... [04:46] Could I get a little help on mounting an ntfs-partition in fstab? [04:46] jeffhmb: file xorg.conf.failsafe doesn't exist, says invalid argument [04:46] I suppose I test first just with ssh? [04:46] does anybody seem to have kernel issues in Karmic? [04:46] stuck1: if you can log in with ssh, then you can use sshfs [04:46] roffe_: What do you want to know? [04:46] hello I am new to unbutu and I cant get anything to work....I seem to be missing things after I installed it ....things that the installer should have installed... [04:46] KungFuJesus: for me both seems to work [04:46] I'm sure there's nothing wrong with the key, the action listeners are gone in gnome/nautilus, though [04:46] jeffhmb: I have a xorg.conf.dist-upgrade-date file though [04:46] agoole: ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf* [04:46] lockd: delete key deletes a file in nautilus for 9.10? [04:47] esf36: whats not working? [04:47] stuck1: I didn't have to do anything about groups either - maybe 'cos I have an admin account, but idk [04:47] Deathvalley122: lots of people seem to have, it looks like problems with the install process [04:47] will anyone that just upgraded to karmic x64 do me a favor and try to open firefox from another program (such as clicking a link in here)? [04:47] KungFuJesus: don't see why it wouldn't in a fresh install, this is from alpha which is fully updated [04:47] stuck1: Sure. If you can ssh in, then you can sshfs in. You will have to point out all the correct paths and create an empty folder for the filesystem to show up under. [04:47] what is the firefox 3.5.5 package that just upgraded itself? [04:47] jeffhmb: I have 2 results, one with the dist-upgrade-date, and one that is just xorg.conf.date [04:47] JonathanEllis, I'm not exactly sure what to write, so far I've written "UUID=D06C7E816C7E61E0 /media/windows ntfs", but there should be more, I'm just not certain what [04:47] but noone has acknowledged it yet, just lots of complaints [04:47] lockd: this is an update from jaunty [04:47] I'll try that first...Thankyou everyone!:-[ [04:47] o_o [04:47] jeffhmb: plus the regular xorg.conf file [04:48] OH MY GOD THANKS TO YOU ALL FOR YOUR FEEDBACK! === PC|Away is now known as PacketCollision [04:48] daleharvey: something went terribly wrong with my dvd drive with the kernel [04:48] OK, "mv xorg.conf xorg.conf.SAVE" [04:48] roffe_: OK. Give me a minute [04:48] roffe-> sudo blkid to tell you that UUID [04:48] agoole: OK, "mv xorg.conf xorg.conf.SAVE" [04:48] what happened? [04:48] agoole: then "startx" again [04:48] question, i installed ubuntu 9.10, and i managed to import my pgp keys, but when i went to try to encrypt, the right click option to encrypt isnt there, did they remove it? and remove the import key left click thing too? [04:49] roffe-> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab [04:49] hmmm, it must be buried in nautilus config [04:49] probably can find it somewhere in gconf too, but MAN that is annoying [04:49] daleharvey: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8193361#post8193361 [04:49] jeffhmb: ok done, still black screen [04:49] So does 9.10 have nfs gui? [04:49] jeffhmb: wait [04:49] jeffhmb: I get 2 errors now [04:49] ya they need to make an either way to edit gconf [04:49] roffe_: Have a look at this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G [04:49] Or a sshfs gui? [04:49] I also seem to have a different volume control === PacketCollision is now known as PC|Away [04:50] How do I set a password for a tar.gz file ? [04:50] jeffhmb: failed to initialize glx driver, and /dev/fb0 not found [04:50] dhaval_: you don't? [04:50] stuck1-> try to learn the command line and dont rely too much on gui stuff [04:50] You mean I can't? [04:50] can anyone explain why my computer randomly shuts down on it's own here?: http://kohlrak.pastebin.com/d4357f372 [04:50] and I have to use WINRAR? [04:50] is ubuntu one free? [04:50] lockd: works again, there is a check box in nautilus to check to enable an option to bypass trash completely [04:50] dhaval_: gzip doesn't support encryption, neither does tar [04:50] Yeah I know but I'm crap at typing [04:50] stuck1, Places -> Connect to Server supports SSH [04:51] EvRide what do you mean? [04:51] dhaval_: you could use crypt or something [04:51] apparently w/out it the delete shortcut sequence disappears altogether. Apparently I found a bug [04:51] nevermind, I'll use winrar [04:51] well there seems to be a new cloud hosting storage called Ubuntu One, didn't know if it was free or not === bruenig is now known as indeedhmm [04:51] not even sure why it was missing, must be a default option that didn't carry or a parameter in a config file that didn't previously exist and during migration wasn't included [04:51] EvRide: 2GB is free, you can buy 50GB for a monthly fee [04:51] :) on ubuntu 9.10 [04:51] ah ok, thanks === indeedhmm is now known as bruenig [04:52] EvRide: I understand Ubunto One is free for up to 2GB I believe [04:52] i was wondering if i cn import pidgin contacts etc into empathy [04:52] EvRide: up to 2 gigs is free.. the next level is 50 gigs for $10 a month [04:52] thanks [04:52] gloubarde [04:52] vix, maybe try conduit? pidgin can also sync with evolution [04:52] jeffhmb: should I be loading the glx drivers ? [04:52] agoole: i'm getting stumped.... === patrick is now known as Guest65624 [04:52] daleharvey: that doesn't seem normal does it? [04:53] It's just that sharing from windows to ubuntu for windows users has been done okay but not ubuntu to ubuntu for windows users? [04:53] Does anyone know what's the name of the gnome applet that lets you change the CPU speed from power saving to performance? [04:53] hmmm, before my update i had a custom icon theme, some of the icons are missing now [04:53] Get me! [04:53] agoole: what video card do you have? were you using proprietary drivers? [04:53] chking on conduit [04:53] jeffhmb: I have an old nvidia card I can't even recal what it is [04:53] anyone have problems with that? do the icons need a name change to work with a new version? [04:53] stuck1: problem is, windows doesn't like ubuntu's preferred protocols. They prefer you use windows protocols when there's a windows computer involved. [04:53] jeffhmb: did the upgrade remove the video drivers? [04:54] question, i installed Ubuntu 9.10, and i managed to import my pgp keys, but when i went to try to encrypt, the right click option to encrypt isn't there, did they remove it? and remove the import key left click thing too? [04:54] Scunizi, sorry for the late reply but that guy is using synergy and I've done it with synergy but I find there is a bit of lag [04:54] jeffhmb: I couldn't download and install the nvidia drivers from the site, [04:54] Working on some disaster recovery for a failed 9.04 upgrade to 9.10... My kernel doesn't load ~ i'm resorting right now to using a USB thumbdrive and a tool called Super Grub. when manually trying to boot vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic & properly setting my LVM root, grub freezes and nothing loads. Ubuntu also failed to update my mbr/superblock/whtaever the heck my machine has set up [04:54] long story short is there a website i can download a the vmlinuz kernel image from? [04:54] well currently volume up/down/mute is broken, but that's because the current gnome build has zero support for ALSA === ossurayynot is now known as tonyyarusso === ctmjr_ is now known as ctmjr [04:54] stuck1, what are you trying to do? Ubuntu supports SMB which is used for Windows shares [04:54] Dayofswords:still there for me, but i did an upgrade [04:54] Hows avahi networking? [04:54] lockd: just installed vlc, gave my pc a quick restart and things are rocking ^_^ thank you for the assistance [04:54] JonathanEllis, Thanks a lot [04:55] i did a fresh install [04:55] in 9.10 [04:55] agoole: that's possible -- you might need to clean out any vestiges first.

[04:55] Dayofswords: can't say i can help you then. [04:55] conduit does nt sync with pidgin [04:55] agoole: yes [04:55] i was wondering if i cn import pidgin contacts etc into empathy ? [04:55] eduardo_: the amd64 edition should be 64-bit [04:55] how do you edit the startup services through the GUI now? I'd rather not manage this ubuntu install debian style [04:55] yes vix [04:55] agoole: i had some minor problems when I upgraded to Jaunty [04:55] EvRide: ? [04:55] BlackEyes: good but I wasn't the one who suggested VLC :P [04:55] jeffhmb: ok, let me run sudo aptitude search nvidia [04:55] when you start up emp there should be an option to do it automatically for you [04:55] lstarnes: where can i download it from [04:55] !boot | KungFuJesus [04:55] KungFuJesus: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto [04:56] dayofswords : what do you wanna install? third-party apps?

At this point all I can do is suggest links that I find. [05:24] Cammy, just a replacement for Add/Remove, what errors are you seeing?

[05:24] durt, there's just no way to tick/untick any programs [05:24] StrangeCharm, yes, that is usually with PXE [05:24] I seem to have an odd X crash, I am on a fresh install of 9.10 and when i boot I am lead to a flickering terminal. It seems as if the terminal is phasing between it and another terminal because when i type sometimes it appears in the terminal and sometimes it appears in the flicker... odd... I am also running on modest hardware but with an ATI HD 2600, i believe that may be the problem. [05:24] And in the menu, Install and Remove won't highlight [05:25] i cannot enable desktop effects, and I have compiz installed? [05:25] Jordan_U: ok, I'll do that. will get back to you.

[05:26] Th3raid0r_: most likely it's the driver for the video card.. did you activate the propriatory driver? [05:26] And so will be more appealing to the people I want to sell netbooks to [05:26] RickZilla-> what kind of filesystem is on the usb drive? [05:26] hi all [05:26] i cannot enable desktop effects, and I have compiz installed? [05:26] Scunizi: well i took out the fglrx modules via purge and i adjusted the computer to boot with radeonhd with the same problem. [05:26] N3bunel, you can try dist-upgrade from the command line on your system [05:26] i am trying to install this 9.10 on a hard drive that has windows 7 and ubuntu 9.04 , but i acnnot select it so it replaces the 9.10 [05:26] It looks more like an online shopping experience, which is how I think people prefer [05:26] Brent: you can try sudo nvidia-xconfig --sli=on then reboot with both cards in [05:26] thanks, Scunizi , mikechelen [05:26] how to detect mya video card [05:26] I have a quick question that maybe someone can help me with. I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10, and now it seems that I can utilize the login app in order to bypass the initial login screen; i.e. to have automated login..... anyone know how to fix this? It's just grayed out when I open the login manager.... [05:26] exodus_ms : i try this bun the replay was red only file system [05:27] spO: Can you rephrase that please? [05:27] Cammy, people prefer context menus and working interface, no other way aroud [05:27] i can't run compiz on my graph card [05:27] spO does it have an extra space on your drive? [05:27] dukz_, you can mount your root fs rw with mount -rw -o remount / [05:27] sorry.... i meant to say I can't utilize the login manager [05:27] dsgahahahah: You need to click the lock to unlock it [05:27] Lint, shut up if you're not going to help me with it [05:27] thank you, i'll try that\ [05:27] Scunizi: needless to say I was using the proprietary driver before hand [05:27] I have a problem that carried over from 9.04 to 9.10...I want a transparent terminal window that sees the window that is open behind it instead of the desktop wallpaper. My other PC does it just find. Any ideas? thank you [05:27] Troll [05:27] I tried, it doesn't work [05:27] its painful to add all accounts on empathy again :( can i import the accounts from pidgin? [05:27] N3bunel, check that second link I gave you. I suggest at one point how to "mount" everything with the proper permissions from the command line [05:28] StrangeCharm, maybe check out Edubuntu, it is supposed to have some netbooting options [05:28] Cammy: please be polite [05:28] Th3raid0r_: I'm not good with ati but I remember that with mesa 7.1+ some ati cards were broken.. not sure if that is still the case or not. and not sure if your card is on the list [05:28] ok now the cube works but the top and bottom is yellow why is there not a window there? [05:28] from "update manager" the distribution update is hang. it's grayed in downloading and I don't have the cancel option.

See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [05:28] i guess i will install windows 7 again and then install the new ubuntu [05:28] bigfootbuilt: You need to enable compiz ( desktop effects ) but if they aren't enabled by default you probably have a driver problem [05:28] n8tuser: I'm assuming fat32 [05:28] spO: or install ubuntu and install wind 7 in a vm [05:28] its painful to add all accounts on empathy again :( can i import the accounts from pidgin? [05:28] Jordan_U: I'll check it out. thanks [05:28] Scunizi: Well it must be a recent regression, I was running this card fine on both drivers with ubuntu 9.04 [05:29] Jordan_u - any other suggestions? [05:29] Th3raid0r_: then your card isn't on the list.. 9.04 they were broke as well [05:29] SjB: ok, will do that. thanks. [05:29] vix, does pidgin have any account export options/ [05:29] RickZilla-> try this first, sudo fdisk -l and paste it in pastebin for me to see the results [05:29] ? [05:29] Scunizi: this is odd, everything worked fine on the live CD, but things are as broken as ever on an install, it doesn't add up. [05:30] to install ubuntu i need only / and swap mount points? [05:30] Hey I'm running a program on 9.10 using X11libs and it's crashing with error 29 illegal seek, but the same program running on my friends computer with 9.04 seems to work fine. Did something in the X11 libs break recently? [05:31] i just upgraded to 9.10 (x64) and fluxbox apparently is incompatible with it :( [05:31] ok now the cube works but the top and bottom is yellow why is there not a window there? [05:31] What's the url for the pastebin in here? [05:31] what mount poitns do i need, usually, just / and swap? [05:31] Why is it when I open "hardware drivers", it only lists a driver for one item?

[05:32] hello, can anyone provide me the hash to the 9.10 iso? [05:32] I was just wondering about Ubuntu karmic if they fixed the udev issue with bitpim. Also, I'm running Jaunty, and I was wondering if it was really worth updating. I've heard that 9.10 (am64), is still buggy [05:32] bigfootbuilt: It only lists drivers not enabled by default, i.e. proprietary drivers [05:32] n8tuser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/304809/ [05:32] i cannot enable desktop effects, and I have compiz installed? [05:32] vix, there is an .xml file with all the pidgin accounts, but idk if empathy can import it [05:32] Thanks again [05:32] i cant see empathy in the "system tray" [05:32] sh4d3sl4y3r_: the md5sums are in the download dirs on the mirrors [05:32] sp0 you'd want /home too yeah? [05:32] vix, you can install pidgin again and the accounts should still be saved [05:33] sh4d3sl4y3r_: and there is no single image file [05:33] Scunizi: this is odd, everything worked fine on the live CD, but things are as broken as ever on an install, it doesn't add up. [05:33] anyone know why I can't unlock in the login screen settings? [05:33] RickZilla-> here is your clue line 16 Disk /dev/sdb doesn't contain a valid partition table [05:33] mikechelen: how? its a fresh install [05:33] sp0 you don't need swap partition, unless you want hibernation. [05:33] mikechelen: I'm more concerned with why it doesn't work. Wondering if it's an ISP thing, or what.

[05:34] Th3raid0r_: Ati is an odd one to configure.. sorry I don't have the answers.. I'd log a bug against it. [05:34] n8tuser: It worked fine last night [05:34] vix, well you can copy the pidgin accounts file over [05:34] RickZilla-> possibly. yeah, as the fdisk -l command results indicates [05:34] how come ubuntu 9.10 doesn't come with an installation option that simply writes over old ubuntu? instead i have to do manual or something similar [05:34] and how do i import. i dont see any import option inempathy [05:34] RickZilla-> things can go bad within overnight.. so it may have been good last night, but not anymore.. [05:35] favicons are broken in Firefox within the "Bookmarks Toolbar". This is also visible on the Ubuntu homepage. See here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8193725 [05:35] n8tuser: Thanks for taking the time to help, I'll see if I can track down another drive. Your help here is very much appreciated. [05:35] sp0, use an 'Alternative CD' for advanced installer [05:35] wow I had some nutball mount points -- anyone notice mount points on usb drives with underscore (_) characters? [05:35] spO-> because it does not know if you want to save the old install? like if you have windows in one partition.. you can use a default of overwriting everything though [05:36] spO: how old a version?

[05:36] merma: it does seem slower [05:36] catch 22, wubi install of jaunty, updated to beta of Karmic worked fine. grub update to grub2 blew up! now cann't boot asus express go, vista, or Karmic. Looking for recovery suggestions to recove boot to each partition. thx [05:37] almoxarife, Bluey it just feels less responsive, when moving/resizing/minimizing/maximizing windows [05:37] dr3mro: check out docs on xrandr and it's uses.. [05:37] dr3mro-> try xrandr , i dont know all the details, but you can man xrandr [05:37] lint, what is alternative cd? [05:37] <_syntax_> It seems faster in my opinion [05:37] help! where are the 9.10 md5sum hashes?!?!?! [05:37] merma: I gained a lot of what I suppose is getup when I took it to ext4, you at ext4? [05:37] merma: I seems much slower on big file copies [05:37] i cannot enable desktop effects, and I have compiz installed? [05:37] almoxarife, yes [05:37] Offplanet: wubi doesn't use a normal grub or grub2, I think it's a separate branch called grub4dos [05:38] merma, if this is a new install, there could be one time only tasks running in the background [05:38] ejv: on the download page [05:38] Offplanet-> wubi is not a true installation, it is like a show model, so upgrading such is not really ideal [05:38] durt, im rebooted several times [05:38] Firefox doesn't display favicons, does not retain tabs and windows from previous sessions. I posted in firefox, no response. I posted on forums and others have the same problem too. Now what do i do? Sit and wait until someone fixes? [05:38] ive* [05:38] ctmjr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes - they are usually on this page [05:38] Offplanet: You need to restore whatever bootloader wubi came with [05:38] merma: I think its faster now, or the same at least [05:38] ctmjr: and they aren't :( [05:38] Hmm, yet another reason I am forced to use windows. Contrary to popular belief, Ubuntu doesn't just work in most cases. I am now stuck with a useless ext4 partition and an ATI Graphics Card that is causing weird bugs that won't let me even boot. It is this that is keeping most linux from going mainstream. As to my experiences, I am not new to ATI cards, and it is the new boot process that makes this problem difficult, I am una [05:38] this is a silly question but, how do i send messages on gwibber 2.0 that comes with karmic? lol [05:38] Loaded the buggy module.

[05:43] Swish: the next LTS release is with 10.04.. there won't be a 8.04.4 [05:43] Lint: an old one, Geforce 440 mx or something [05:43] ah poo. I have to redownload packages. [05:43] Has anyone else had problems getting a Rocketfish 7.1 sound card to work? It shows it is using a driver, ca0106 type, and it recognizes the card, but I have no sound. Nothing is muted either. [05:43] Swish: nope its a vanialla install [05:44] ejv: your right took me a minute here you go http://noncdn.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/MD5SUMS [05:44] [A]KangB, http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=1&ved=0CAsQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ubuntu.com%2Fgetubuntu%2Fdownloadmirrors&ei=F33qSvbqH8iWtgeGxrgw&usg=AFQjCNEja7icC8G-N1eF_etGEmvCZb4QAA&sig2=xp_p8AyZgLQC_GqUmg-oTQ [05:44] got my answer thank you [05:44] daleharvey, what about in your BIOS? [05:44] !alternate | eday [05:44] eday: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal [05:44] eday, press F6 on the boot screen [05:44] agoole: I tried to remove all nvidia drivers, and reset my xorg but still nothing [05:44] hoy hoy [05:44] Bluey: thanks, that didn't have the lpia images, but I found it, and it was fine. [05:44] I just got impatient, it is finishing up now. Sorry. :) [05:44] Jordan_U: I saw that, but was curious before I download another iso, since I already have -desktop [05:44] It looks like you have to install nfs-common in order to get nfs share to work on fresh karmic install [05:45] <[A]KangB> Loafers, thats for i386 and amd64...im looking for PPC+PS3 [05:45] hackel: okay that's usually something overlooked [05:45] eday: What do you want to do specifically? [05:45] Lint: I did, not an option. Just ACPI settings and free-sw only [05:45] there doesnt seem to be much fancy in bios [05:45] Jordan_U: finer grained pkg installer [05:45] !aptitude [05:45] aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. Like other APT front-ends, it can install/remove packages and their dependencies (on Dapper and earlier, however, only aptitude keeps track of unused dependencies). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide [05:46] eday: Then you do need the alternate or minimal CD [05:46] anyon like ubunto 9.10? === DaZ__ is now known as euroentuzjasta [05:46] Jordan_U: ok, thanks! Wanted to double check before hitting the mirror again. :) [05:46] how we can convert ms-outlook mails in Mozilla-thunderbird [05:46] Okay, who really knows how to deal with ATI bugs? I need to talk to such a person. [05:46] eday, it could be because you have live-cd version? and no, even in expert mode you cannot choose which packages tyo install [05:46] eday: np [05:46] hey everyone. I cannot install any new packages in my fresh Kubuntu 9.10 install. The KDE Firefox installer brings up a message that says "Requested packages are already installed." Attempting to install anything from the terminal results in a "E: Package _________ has no installation candidate" error. what's going on? [05:46] Will my third-party software (that I installed on 9.04) be broken when I upgrade to the new release? [05:46] jimbeam12: I like it, but would like it more if I could get the sound to work with my rocketfish card [05:46] jimbeam12_, I'm using it now (server version) because the 8.04LTS version didn't install properly from a USB flash stick [05:46] I am about to be shot for this comment but here goes....Ubuntu is linux based right.... [05:46] does n e 1 use JTV? i need an address which i can't get using a PDA [05:46] eday: And you can always torrent :) [05:46] esf36: yes, it is based on linux [05:46] OsamaK_: Depends on whether the third party repos support Karmic [05:47] almoxarife: [05:47] esf36: yuppers [05:47] Jordan_U: There's a mirror a couple miles away from me, but still a bit slow due to my connection. :) [05:47] is there a way to switch primary monitors in ubuntu 9.10? I have 2 external monitors plugged in [05:47] Hello! I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on my desktop (64-bit) that already had Vista running on it. It doesn't seem to bring up grub when the computer boots now. It waits for about 10 seconds at a blank screen and then loads Vista [05:47] anyone have any ideas? [05:47] OK so I did an online upgrade with the alt-cd from 9.04 to 9.10 and now that it has finished it seems ubuntu is having trouble mounting the filesystems in the fstab, has anyone seen this problem and or found a solution [05:47] the message is "One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted" and then it lists the ones its waiting on [05:47] I system hangs on "shut down' and 'restart', mine is a upgrade from jaunty, is there a work around?, no in jaunty I didn't have the same issue, I can do a hard shut down with the power button, I thought I saw something mentioned on it, but I can't find it now [05:47] * vix is hating empathy [05:48] Vesayth: which did you install last? windows or linux? [05:48] bluey: ubuntu [05:48] !linux | esf36 [05:48] esf36: Linux is the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Many operating systems use Linux as kernel. For more information on Linux in general, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux [05:48] Vesayth: right answer! [05:48] i don't "get" empathy.. it's ..

I created a new key and still no right-click option. Need to install something? thx [06:17] anyone have any insight? [06:17] And4713[LT]: does it say exactly which filesystems it can't mount? [06:17] matman1 : oops, my daughter is 12 :) [06:17] yes losha it says it is waiting on them [06:17] xbmc wasn't found :\ [06:18] And4713[LT]: can you comment out the filesystems which don't mount? [06:18] losha, it would be a bad idea to comment out / and /boot and /var [06:18] schedule backup [06:19] hello i have a problem on intrepid [06:19] And4713[LT]: it says it cannot mount /, /boot and /var ? I can't imagine what would cause that... [06:19] I upgraded to 9.10 and my wireless card which worked in 9.04 will not work, [06:19] Upon checking my Wireless network key seems to have been cleared from the network settings manager [06:19] jitender, try sbackup [06:20] when i go to add/remove apps i update avail software and it tells me a long list of things it cant download [06:20] hm. seems i need udev or hal config expertise [06:20] losha, it seems to mount swap and the root partition at some point, but then later says it is waiting on all of them [06:20] !mint [06:20] There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang) [06:20] this is confirmed by the recovery console having access to / [06:20] hello xdpyinfo detects my dimntions wrong and that affects my video aspect ratio its reported xdpyinfo | grep dimension [06:20] dimensions: 1280x800 pixels (289x21 millimeters) but it should be 339x212 how can i change it so i fix video aspect ratio :) [06:21] !mintsupport [06:21] Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint on irc.spotchat.org [06:22] matman1 : http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=HOW-TO_install_XBMC_for_Linux_on_Ubuntu_with_a_minimal_installation_step-by-step [06:22] anyone know where you edit where cds are auto started :/ [06:22] And4713[LT]: Frankly, I suggest you downgrade back to 9.04. Er, you made a backup before you upgraded, didn't you? [06:22] how does on set the 'not in ui' properties of a input device in x now? [06:23] losha, I do not have a backup of the os itself but all user data etc is fine [06:23] facing trouble in time of booting....screen gets blank and hung up?

It's more likely because 9.10 hasn't had enough testing yet.... [06:34] <[31d1]> i dont care about karmic anymore [06:34] why [06:34] <[31d1]> i wanna talk about the next guy [06:34] dukz: vim-common [06:35] losha, heh well it is the first day, also I was mistaken some of those actually are mounted, just apparently not in the way the OS would prefer [06:35] [31d1]: there's nothing to talk about with no libc yet [06:35] hello all [06:35] how r [06:35] bigmack83_: you still around ? [06:35] <[31d1]> im just sad cause i got kicked and forcejoined by a robot [06:35] I_Hate_Freedom: it says i already have vim-common installed, but i can't find it anywhere in my path... [06:35] matman1, yea [06:35] 9.10 alternate cd for upgrade not working. asks for internet connection and fails. ??? solution [06:36] dukz: Hmmm.

I'll try to remove them and reinstall [06:37] is there an ubuntu software that saves your terminal window positions? [06:37] bigmack83_: yes [06:37] kurtkraut: you can probably do: gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/gwibber but I don't use it so I don't know for sure it would work [06:37] ok [06:37] yea i just found it [06:37] Has anyone has their sound card disappear while upgrading? [06:37] !netsplit [06:37] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [06:38] how to upgrade 9.04 to 9.10 without internet connection?

[06:38] raik: Alternate CD [06:38] what cd evride [06:38] either request one, or burn it to cd [06:38] alternate cd also needs internet connection flannel [06:39] http://paste.ubuntu.com/304844/ [06:39] raik: Not if you've never had the internet (and don't have anything installed except what's on the alternate CD) [06:39] Anyone help? [06:39] I_Hate_Freedom, Sysytem -> sound -> output select the proper output [06:39] just updated to karmic, two-finger scrolling in firefox isnt very 'smooth' [06:39] bigmack83: It doesn't show up in Sound/Preferences. [06:39] i downloaded alternate cd but while upgrading it asks for internet connection and later says fail? flannel [06:40] I_Hate_Freedom: it's asking me to choose between vim-nox or vim-gtk [06:40] bigmack83: The only option it gives me is Dummy Output. [06:40] where is the udev scripts located at? [06:40] in some var directory i think [06:40] I_Hate_Freedom, well my sound is based on alsa so im not sure if its different. you dont have the output tab in sound preferences? === Sharker is now known as Guest39189 [06:40] I_Hate_Freedom: it's asking me to choose between vim-nox or vim-gtk [06:40] can anyone tell me if there is a way in linux to burn an iso to a folder? .. I need to get an iso on my thumbdrive [06:40] hmmm [06:40] raik: It might claim to need the internet, because it thinks you're doing a regular upgrade, but then it sees the packages on the alternate CD and calms down. Again, if you have anything installed that isn't on the alternate CD, you'll need to download those packages. [06:40] i'm officially totally up to date [06:41] does anyone know where i can obtain an invite for an academic/e-learning based torrent website like bitme, bitspyder, or elbitz? [06:41] dukz, gtk if using gnome [06:41] dukz: vim-nox unless you want the gui. [06:41] I have a dkms question. [06:41] can i boot from alternate cd and upgrade 9.04? flannel [06:41] Could anyone help with this http://paste.ubuntu.com/304844/ [06:41] ***** Can anyone please help me.. trying to burn/rip and iso to a file/folder location .. is there a linux tool for this? [06:41] dimensions: 1280x800 pixels (289x21 millimeters) but it should be 339x212 how can i change it so i fix video aspect ratio :) [06:41] I can't even get install [06:41] I have upgraded from ubuntu 9.04, and my X doesn't come up. [06:41] it complains about nvidia drivers. [06:41] raik: yes [06:41] raik: No, you can install though, but not upgrade (that only happens from the system) [06:41] DCC SEND "STARTKEYLOGGER" 0 0 0? [06:41] zephyr_: no escribas todo en mayusculas, va contra las normas. La proxima vez seras expulsado. [06:41] bigmack83: I'm using alsa as well. [06:41] is there a way to force the system to rebuild nvidia drivers ? [06:42] hey. i moved from kubuntu to ubuntu. but the kubuntu upsplash theme still shows up. how do i change it to ubuntus upsplash? [06:42] i need to force user to enter root passwd to mount USB devices [06:42] raik: my bad, if put the cd in while running you can update [06:42] how can i do this in ubuntu [06:42] bigmack83_: why not both the user and host name [06:42] firefly_new: update-alternatives --config [06:42] like this [06:42] my net connection takes a lot of time to upgrade from internet. so anyother ideas? flannel [06:42] I thought this was supposed to be a help channel [06:42] My new installation of Karmic Koala desktop AMD64 on an Acer Aspire 9301AWSMi didnt install the boot loader. /boot/grub is empty. Any idea how to solve this? I know nothing about grub2 [06:42] like this PS1='\[\033[01;35m\]\u@\h\[\033[01;33m\] \w \$\[\033[00m\] ' [06:42] raik: The alternate CD is your best bet. [06:42] I can't get my wireless device to connect to the network with ndis even though it worked in previous versions [06:42] raik: It'll download only what you don't have on the CD, which likely won't be much. [06:43] I downloaded the alternative CD for upgrading. I select NO when it asks whether I want to use the network. Then it goes ahead and tries to fetch packages anyways? What's up with that? [06:43] i need to force user to enter root passwd to mount USB devices [06:43] CANY ANYONE HELP ME PLEASE!?!? [06:43] Jester86: no escribas todo en mayusculas, va contra las normas. La proxima vez seras expulsado. [06:43] (I tried clicking yes thinking maybe the buttons were switched, but that didn't work either) [06:43] but the alternate cd does not start up without downloading packages that are not in the cd from the internet. flannel [06:43] !ask > Jester86 [06:43] Jester86, please see my private message [06:43] man this channel is getting flooded or what? [06:43] tgraupmann-w7, what type of driver are you using? [06:43] Well it did release today [06:43] raik: It claims that it needs to download [however much] and then discovers that they're already "downloaded" on the CD [06:44] bigmack83: In 'Output' there is no option for my sound card. Only Dummy Output. [06:44] tgraupmann-w7, (windows driver) [06:44] wn121T has worked with hardy but not the latest [06:44] Can anyone help me with a wireless problem? [06:44] deadman: it looks more like the irc network was split and is rejoining [06:44] i need to force user to enter root passwd to mount USB devices... is there any way i can do this? [06:44] i updated from alt and it only had to get 3 packages [06:44] !repeat | deadman [06:44] deadman: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. [06:44] Jester86, which image? the netbook one? [06:44] not all the packages are on the cd. flannel [06:44] quiescens, oh! :) [06:44] JAMD4561, what is your wireless device? [06:44] I tried WN121T with NDIS it just doesn't think the device is present - https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/23148 [06:44] raik: Correct. But the majority of them are.

[06:46] I am trying to connect to the Internet after an upgrade to 9.10, The Internet was working perfectly in 9.04 but for some reason or another the wireless card no longer connects to the router in our house, even though I have entered the correct wireless key [06:46] Jester86: ok [06:46] try gpart part of the ubuntu live cd === geo_ is now known as geo05 [06:46] Jester86: do you know how to do that?

[06:46] you can even resize xp partitions gpart is the greatest free tol [06:46] Jester86, and you wish to use ubuntu for that? unetbootin will only handle linux and the like; never heard of windows images being supported. ##windows would be the place to ask [06:46] phix, thats what i'ma asking on here for..

I'm to having to burn the iso to a portable drive.. its crude but should be effective [06:53] JonathanEllis, you can install the bootloader via live cd...please google that and there are step by step guides out there [06:53] @brocgiddens I got it working, I just needed to create a new network connection in the network manager and delete the old one, odd but it works [06:53] wesley810: Trouble is I cant even boot the installed os so anything I install will only work on the livecd and then disappear once I reboot [06:53] alt dns servers: 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 [06:54] JAMD4561, excellent! [06:54] I_Hate_Freedom, hrmm, then im not sure what to do. you can run 'sudo lshw' to see the exact sound card you have then search ubuntu forums for problems in karmic with that card [06:54] dukz: Use 'sudo apt-get install vim-nox' [06:54] i've been downloading alot lately.. u think my ISP may be throwing a fit bc that? [06:54] Jon if you have the live cd is though be on there. Once you start the config for grub it will find your partions and add them in to it and set itself up in your mbr [06:54] I_Hate_Freedom, so you dislike freedom.. you must be an obama supporter [06:55] i need to force user to enter root passwd to mount USB devices... is there any way i can do this??? [06:55] hi [06:55] !ot | Jester86 [06:55] Jester86: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [06:55] Jester86, lol burn [06:55] jester86, let's leave politics out of this channel [06:55] when you're talking about the tennant of a house [06:55] hi [06:55] is it tennant or tenant? [06:55] haha [06:55] I_Hate_Freedom: It does the same thing. I'm removing my internet sources, and getting them from the cd. [06:55] the new add software program is terrible [06:55] 9.10: What about the *.fdi HAL files on update to device-kit? Are they completely removed? How to configure, e.g. a touch-screen? [06:55] you guys are no fun at all [06:55] can I do a network upgrade from jaunty to karmic? [06:55] tennant or tenant? I'm Canadian [06:55] anyone like the new ubuntu [06:55] DexterLB, yes u can [06:55] How would I put Karmic ISO on a flashdrive when it is done? (from inside of Windows XP) [06:55] apparently both are right? [06:55] DexterLB, certainly [06:56] okay, too much going on here [06:56] CWinLx: either work [06:56] Kimbosobisobi, use unetbootin [06:56] I do apt-get update [06:56] then update-manager -d [06:56] JonathanEllis, check Ubuntuforums, there IS a guide for that specific problem [06:56] Jimbeam12 Not sure have not played with it but i am thinking I will have to do a distro upgrade to get my sound working [06:56] and update-manager lets me install the beta [06:56] run yes DexterLB [06:56] DexterLB, you dont want to that [06:56] I know [06:56] KurtKraut: before some weeks back it was fine when Ubuntu was not their, but now when i install i cant able to open "My computer " in XP after inserting pen drive [06:56] I want the release [06:57] odds are it won't work properly DexterLB but that is how [06:57] DexterLB, it is no longer a beta, but released [06:57] dayo: still getting msgs in my highlight for the other user who's name starts with Dayo :P [06:57] ohh [06:57] jimbeam12, it's ok the 'Ubuntu Software Center' replacement for 'Add/Remove Software' on the menu is a terribly unorganized program [06:57] Shtl, this is an evidence that your problem is not operating system related. [06:57] perhaps they haven't renewed the info window? [06:57] dukz: Hmmm [06:57] KurtKraut: then? [06:57] really.. [06:57] havent checked that out [06:57] i may brick my ubuntu install but i'm going to try to upgrade to 9.10 also DexterLB [06:58] hm. can set it manually via xinput set-int-prop ... [06:58] bazhang: I would just simply feed it (select) the ISO and tell it my USB Flash stick, then restart and boot from it as I would a CD/DVD ? [06:58] I_Hate_Freedom: I think it's my internet source that has the problem. I can't seem to get the thing updating properly' [06:58] does it say it's beta on your end too? [06:58] phantomcircuit, i started with beta, i still have add/remove software. i wonder if you only get it with a fresh install of the release [06:58] dukz: You tried 'vim-gtk' as well? [06:58] Shtl, then you should start to investigate hardware failures or ask for help in a web forum dedicated to hardware issues. [06:59] Hi ppl, I need some help. I need to copy some gigabytes of files from a Windows partition that have many files corrupted (HD is dying). I want to copy all possible files and log all that couldn't be copied. There is any command line code that do this trick? Thanks! (sorry for my poorly english) [06:59] KurtKraut: the pen drive file system has to be ext3 or so? [06:59] bigmack83_, i had beta but I had software center [06:59] interesting [06:59] Kimbosobisobi, well you would need for it to write first, and be certain that your computer can boot from usb, but essentialy yeah [06:59] hey guys, what download speeds do you have.. i'm upgrading to 22mb/s tomorrow.. [06:59] bazhang: I have booted from Jaunty with the USB drive [06:59] well the trouble i am having trying to install 9.10 and loking at all these bugs in it i just might install win7 that at least works [06:59] oh im running ubuntu studio karmic, i bet thats the difference [06:59] Jester86, please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic [06:59] bigmack83_, i upgraded a 9.04 install [06:59] Shtl, it should be FAT32 [06:59] bazhang: Too bad it didn't work either, just like Intrepid [07:00] bigmack83: alsactl finds no sound cards. [07:00] KurtKraut: now it is [07:00] I_Hate_Freedom: Yup, let me refresh my sources again. 1 sec [07:00] i installed 9.10 2 times yesterday.both gave a md5checksum of 8790491bfa9d00f283ed9dd2d77b3906.while the torrent website gives different checksum.but when i burnt it it booted from live cd.while installing at 95 % i got a ubiquity error and the installation stopped.it had the initrd image and the filesystem looks proper.how can i confirm [07:00] Kimbosobisobi, are you referring to the usb-creator, or to unetbootin [07:00] bazhang: I mean it worked, but the e1000e module was messed up in the kernels of intrepid and jaunty [07:00] bazhang, since i can get to google for whatever reason.. could u see if u can find a linux program that allows for burning to a folder? I still cant get this iso onto my portable hdd [07:00] bazhang: So I have no faith in Karmic [07:00] Jester86: Does it say it's a development release on your end too? [07:01] bigmack83: cat /proc/asound/cards finds it. [07:01] I_Hate_Freedom, sounds like the driver isnt installed properly. run 'sudo lshw' to see the exact sound card you have to see when you need. [07:01] Jester86, what version of ubuntu are you using [07:01] got to go [07:01] varunthacker, uh so you tried to install with an iso you knew was not correct? and you're surprised that it didnt work? [07:01] bye [07:01] bazhang, 9.04 currently.. upgrading to 9.10 awp [07:01] aws* [07:01] hello, I need help. with nvidia. [07:01] same here [07:01] DexterLB, i dont think it did [07:01] but how come both times i downloaded i got the same md5 checksum? [07:01] I upgraded the system to koala, and nvidia drivers don't work. [07:01] bigmack83: Intel 82801H [07:01] i've never had problems with any RELEASE version of ubuntu [07:02] I don't know how to rebuild the drivers via dkms system. [07:02] so ubuntu is getting like windows and releasing things too early? [07:02] varunthacker, um guessing because your network sucks or your computer is broken in a subtle way [07:02] varunthacker: you've probably got a bad proxy/cache in between, try using the torrents [07:02] I need to turn acpi mode off before I can boot into my live cd, otherwise it crashes, however with acpi mode off ubiquity wont start for some reason [07:02] I_Hate_Freedom, search ubuntuforums.org for issues with that card in karmic, or to see exactly what drivers you need [07:02] i used torrents.and i have a decent connection.1 mbps [07:03] as suspected you're in india [07:03] well I'll go for it :S [07:03] ie your internet connection probably has ridiculously high error rates [07:03] Did you guys happen to help anyone here who was unable to load X? I heard there were people who were stuck in textmode after upgrading to 9.10, and I'm having that problem too. [07:03] varunthacker, if you used the torrents then the checksum will be correct [07:03] Wesley18..did you fix the sound? [07:03] but should it even boot up from the live cd [07:03] unless your hard drive is broken [07:04] How can I get my Humanity Icons to properly show? [07:04] it isn't [07:04] ooohh Satanic Edition of Ubuntu, I like [07:04] Thundercross, a guy earlier said he was stuck at a login prompt after upgrading, he was using 64-bit [07:04] hi, can you tell me how to access sftp, via ssh key auth only? [07:04] varun@varun:/media/e$ md5sum ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso [07:04] 8790491bfa9d00f283ed9dd2d77b3906 ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso [07:04] Hmm, I'm on 32-bit === Guest86860 is now known as fdd [07:04] varunthacker, actually it probably is but it's not failing catastrophically yet [07:04] And I have a Wacom tablet, if that's still an issue === goose is now known as goose|PC [07:04] Anyone see some kind of word on the very left side of the screen (clipped off) on http://www.ubuntu.com/ ? [07:05] Hi. I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10, and I am not fond of the list for the login window. Is there a way I can just use the old login type from 9.04? [07:05] reya276 go to themes and icons and then choose human [07:05] what will happen if there's a power cutout during the distro upgrade? [07:05] DexterLB: not good things - why are you planning on one? [07:05] Thundercross, not sure about that specifically [07:05] DexterLB, depends on where you are [07:05] DexterLB, depending on what state your system is in, it could either be disastrous or not matter at all. [07:05] The_Doctor: I did that, but it seems that no icons are showing for Preferences, Administration and some others [07:06] DexterLB, if it happens during the download phase, nothing too bad. During the package installation, this will require a fresh install right from the beginning. [07:06] Sounds like DexterLB is afraid that one might happen to him at random times [07:06] The_Doctor: like if the Icon theme is broken somehow [07:06] Thundercross: that's why I have a ups! [07:06] they've been cutting the power every one or two days\ [07:06] varunthacker, what bittorrent client are you using [07:06] was doing md5sum the right way?because i checked my torrent hash value and it matches. [07:06] for about 15mins [07:06] I live about 100 yards from a power sub-station [07:06] dunno if my UPS can last that long [07:06] A month or so, that happened frequently. [07:07] DexterLB: there's away to find out -- [07:07] Though, sometimes, it was for less than a second. But the damage is done [07:07] I have about 23 minutes of battery [07:07] 8790491bfa9d00f283ed9dd2d77b3906 *ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso [07:07] Hi all. If I plan on dual-booting Vista and Ubuntu, is it wiser to install Ubuntu first? I'm thinking that installing it first will put it on the outer cylinders, which is where I want it... right? [07:07] DexterLB, backup all your data before trying to start an upgrade. You should also download the ISO of Alternate CD and mount it to install from the ISO to avoid a longer process. [07:07] MasterofPuppets: no [07:07] varunthacker, the md5 matches the expected values [07:07] Bluey: Smarter to install Vista first? [07:07] MasterofPuppets: install windows FIRST, then ubuntu [07:07] is ext4 stable enough to use? [07:07] MasterofPuppets: install vista first [07:07] or should I stilll be using ext3? [07:07] I did a backup [07:07] MasterofPuppets, windows first is likely a better choice, ubuntu will then add it to grub [07:08] Why does #ubuntu+1 get closed when there is a release? [07:08] BTW, it took me an hour to run the update proper, just in case worse comes to worse [07:08] MasterofPuppets, Windows will erase the Ubuntu boot (GRUB) if you install it later. So Windows first then Ubuntu. [07:08] and I have downloaded both the regular and the alternate cd [07:08] MasterofPuppets, install vista first or it will corrupt your grub boot loader [07:08] Thundercross: windows gets ummm the g word over mbr ownership [07:08] sparr, as there is no +1 right now [07:08] brocgiddens, bazhang, daleharvey, KurtKraut: Oh, ok [07:08] windows doesnt seem to play nice [07:08] Thundercross: or windows first and then ubuntu using wubi [07:08] so its a installation problem?my filesystem looks proper.how to add it to my existing grub menu.lst. [07:08] varunthacker, im guessing that you screwed something up or that your computer is broken [07:08] Guys, I'm not part of the dual boot convo [07:08] I just thought that installing Ubuntu first would make it faster :P [07:09] sparr: its not closed go there and wait for us when lucid toolchain come up [07:09] Windows basically tries to screw over any other OS on there [07:09] MasterofPuppets: not recommended [07:09] unless its another Microsoft OS [07:09] Bluey: So no performance gain? Damn :( [07:09] hi, can you tell me how to access sftp, via ssh key auth only? [07:09] MasterofPuppets: Are you pulling my strings? Twisting my mind and smashing my dreams? [07:09] bazhang: like hell there's not, there have been packages targeted at lucid for weeks [07:09] phix: Rock on \m/ lol [07:09] MasterofPuppets: less problems if you do it that way - windows first, then linux === Jordan_U_ is now known as Jordan_U [07:09] om26er: they kicked everyone out and forwarded the channel to here. it's closed. [07:10] MasterofPuppets: \m/ [07:10] MasterofPuppets: trust me on this! [07:10] Bluey: Problems aren't an issue, there's probably a guide for it out there somewhere :P I'm just looking to see if it would indeed make Ubuntu faster [07:10] sparr: because there is not need at the moment [07:10] MasterofPuppets, the order of install won't affect performance at all [07:10] sparr: they wanna give every one help at the same channel [07:10] I found a quick fix for it just in case anyone is having the same issue: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2009/10/missing-system-icons-ubuntu-karmic.html [07:10] MasterofPuppets: why would insttall order matter on speed? [07:10] sparr: #ubuntu is for karmic not ubuntu+1 [07:10] 9.10 is bug free, best release yet [07:10] MinusSeven: nope a few bugs... [07:11] lol, not for +1? [07:11] sparr: some people might have been going there for karmic help so they kicked [07:11] Why is this disabled by default is beyond me. [07:11] there's no such thing as bug free [07:11] 9.10 had me re-install SCIM. [07:11] om26er: where for lucid? [07:11] MinusSeven: they still haven't fixed the kde apps under gnome launching the cache cleaner [07:11] I am looking for a way to change my login UI. [07:11] sparr: at the moment no where [07:11] Bluey: Well, I've heard that Vista likes to install itself in partition 1, which is generally on the outer cylinders of the HDD [07:11] they will [07:11] sparr: might be after UDS [07:11] Bluey: And the outer edges get faster reading [07:11] I am running karmic, from a jaunty upgrade, I also have alsa sound as the default, did it back in jaunty, anyone managed to make the sound applet work???? [07:11] varunthacker: Try running "sudo update-grub" [07:12] * om26er wants sparr to know he is not a programmer [07:12] MasterofPuppets: do what thou wilt, but be forewarned - you WILL have difficulty doing it that way.... [07:12] uh so i just crashed gksudo [07:12] that's great [07:12] Bluey: I'll just install Vista first I guess, I'm upgrading to 7 in a week or two anyway [07:12] * happyaron just ignored me... [07:13] Then you'll have to reinstall Ubuntu after you install win7 === PuTrA_caem is now known as andre_cool [07:13] well, last time, can you tell me how to access sftp, via ssh key auth only? [07:13] brocgiddens: Not much of an issue [07:13] What version of X is on 9.10? I couldn't find it anywhere on the site. [07:13] So ffmpeg is not seeing liblamemp3, trying to convert and getting "unsupported codec for output #0.0" [07:13] or at least reinstall grub [07:13] MasterofPuppets: I am the dual boot guy on the fb group -- why use windows since there's adoor -- trust me [07:13] and it is installed [07:13] happyaron: why are you happy for? [07:13] any ideas? [07:13] i have win xp and vista on my pc [07:13] my /dev/sda8 is my current ubuntu filesystem./dev/sda10 is the one in which i installed 9.10.how to find uuid kernel and initrd [07:13] in Virtualbox in Ubuntu :) [07:13] Bluey: Adoor? [07:14] phix: for I am always a happy guy, :) [07:14] Bluey: I just need a Microsoft OS so I can run iTunes on the laptop [07:14] Jordan_U: sudo update-grub.It didn't add 9.10 [07:14] * nick is away: detached [07:14] phix: but I wonder how to access sftp via a key [07:14] MasterofPuppets: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=16957753532&ref=ts [07:14] Bluey: And I also need it because Linux doesn't have drivers for my printer [07:14] varunthacker: What exactly is your current setup? [07:14] Anyone know which version of Xorg is on 9.10? [07:14] MasterofPuppets: what kind of printer? [07:14] happyaron: :D ummm easy [07:15] happyaron: ssh-keygen [07:15] I recommend 4096bit at least [07:15] Bluey:Dell [07:15] i wonder if burn ubuntu on a dvd instead of a cd if it'll work still [07:15] what I (will) really like about karmic is 'quickly' [07:15] Jordan_U:my /dev/sda8 is my current ubuntu filesystem./dev/sda10 is the one in which i installed 9.10. [07:15] Question: Is the cpu frequency deamons buildt into the default kernel? [07:15] MasterofPuppets: i've never heard of ell [07:15] phix: I have the key pairs and some information, but don't know how to connect [07:15] Which lighweight browser to install for Ubuntu?

[08:07] Loafers so you proably have to map super to something in the keyboard options [08:07] hey everyone [08:07] unimatrix: I found a forum with multiple posts about the new adobe not working well with flash in full screen - I'm going to follow up on htat for a while before removing compiz - ... "I like my cube" [08:07] Zeero, I just liked the last one, I'm not 13 to go around and set every color ;) [08:07] infidx, I tried using window button as hotkey to maximize and minimize all windows like i did in Jaunty, but in Karmic it doesn't even recognize it anymore [08:07] Can anyone suggest how I go about stopping my resolv.conf file from being overwritten at boot? [08:07] ripps,cause of mumble [08:07] Zeero, thanks though [08:07] When trying to upgrade to koala my computer crashed and now I can not enter ubuntu. So I am entering via recovery mode in order to move important files to my usb but I do not know where my usb is mounted. It is mentioning "sdc" but there is no /dev/sdc (only /dev/sda*). (I do not have a live cd) [08:07] Admiral-Awesome: mumble? [08:08] Shwack: i didn't say 'remove' compiz i just said turn it off [08:08] I need some grub help :( [08:08] Shwack: it's 2 seconds of work [08:08] Skx: Isn't the only difference that we now have a brown window border? [08:08] alphaOmegaEpsilo, type dmesg [08:08] any way to configure tone (treble and bass for example) in Karmic Koala? [08:08] Other than the icons, that is. [08:08] red bull at 3am was a mistake [08:08] unimatrix: im sorry im as newb as a linux newb gets i just installed for the first time this week :) [08:08] why my download so late [08:08] Zeero, it's more than that -- selecion colors are also darker... everything is darker [08:08] Shwack: ok... System --> Preferences --> Appearance --> Visual Effects [08:08] when i using wget, my download is faster more than 50 KB/s [08:09] Shwack: put it to None to turn off compiz [08:09] but when i wanna update my system, the apt-get only download with 8000 B/s [08:09] Loafers, I did but could not find the location. What should I look for? [08:09] anyone else experiencing PROBLEMS with intel cards? for me its an gm965 that gives me only half the fps @ glxgears [08:09] Has anyone had any luck scaling down their own card's frequency range to better comply with an older monitor? [08:09] skx: that can all be switched pretty easily with a few clicks, right? can't you just change the theme? [08:09] alphaOmegaEpsilo: You cna probably finish the install and it'll fix stuff: apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade (assuming your sources are moved over) or try update manager (not sure how well that will work with half-baked upgrades) [08:09] ..after the update to 9.10 of course [08:09] unimatrix: currently all 3 are unchecked - if I checked none is there way I can get all 3 unchecked again? [08:09] Maybe using Xorg or some other tool? [08:09] ripps,Mumble is an open source, low-latency, high quality voice chat software [08:09] i for one like the new color scheme and welcome our black accented overlords [08:09] Zeero, clearlooks does it for me [08:09] Is the login question guy here? [08:09] muhammad_baiquni: that's ubuntu servers are overloaded right now [08:09] Zeero, thanks again [08:09] Woo. [08:09] alphaOmegaEpsilo, unplug usb, plug in usb type dmesg and it should show what device was just plugged in [08:09] muhammad_baiquni: *because [08:10] Admiral-Awesome: well, disabling pulse is especially tricky now [08:10] Shwack: weird, just check None then [08:10] why is ubuntu starting to feel like windows more and more [08:10] unimatrix: testing everything out right now one sec [08:10] Anyone been able to find a way to get the ALSA switch to turn headphones off to work since karmic? [08:11] I blame all of Ubuntu's viruses and bloatware, Admiral-Awesome. [08:11] I hope I dont have to oay for it soon [08:11] what do you mean, Admiral-Awesome? i thought that it's natural for this many bugs right after release [08:11] Admiral-Awesome, it's the old x version and pulse [08:11] how do i change kernel commands in grub2? cant find a menu.lst file.. [08:11] its not natural for ubuntu [08:11] I just want sessions back [08:11] Admiral-Awesome: i think you are maybe just getting more used to it? i don't see drive by malware or infuriating installers yet... [08:12] btw, anyone using these gnome desktop sharing vnc-like thingy? is it secure? [08:12] larsemil, /boot/grub [08:12] this* [08:12] larsemil: you want /etc/grub.d [08:12] isnt sessions identical to the startup menu? [08:12] I suggest you go do some reading [08:12] not its not [08:12] trijntje: there are no config files there [08:12] Will ubuntu team (canonical) help to write a typographic book in other languages ?? [08:12] hi i need a little help. I'm getting connection timed out whenever i try ssh uname@remotemachine [08:12] odyi: really? will look [08:12] grub2 configuration is scripted and not fun to mess with [08:13] ther is no simple file that holds everything [08:13] anyway I just see less and less control of the environment going on imo [08:13] *sniff, all my firefox bookmarks...gone :( [08:13] Well there is but it gets over-written by grub-update [08:13] where can i find Volume Control in Karmic? [08:13] odyi: not so easy as /boot/grub/menu.lst before? [08:13] hell no [08:13] Admiral-Awesome: that has more do with Gnome's design decisions than ubuntu's [08:13] Admiral-Awesome: any explanation of how its different? if I remember correctly its identical [08:13] too many changes :s [08:14] where can I get a torrent file for ubuntustudion 9.10 i386? [08:14] ok well I disagree [08:14] odyi: its nothing like the old menu.lst [08:14] mvalviar: ubuntustudion? [08:14] larsemil: correct [08:14] it has the startup options on one tab, then "save current running applications" and "save session as you logout" on the other [08:14] If Im complaining from jaunty to karmic then something is wrong [08:14] ubuntustudio* [08:15] shadypixie3: open up a terminal and type alsamixer [08:15] Anyone think that I can modify something in the /boot directory that will change my boot splash back to what it should be (IE: from Xubutu (how the heck did that get there!?) back to Ubuntu) [08:15] you cant disagree, it isnt an opinion [08:15] its the same or it isnt [08:15] mvalviar: all the official torrents are at the bottom of this page: http://releases.ubuntu.com/karmic/ [08:15] Its dumbed down jaunty I think [08:15] Because I just don't like that little rat guy. [08:15] Somehow he's there though. [08:15] Little bugger. [08:16] he's cute [08:16] I didn't install him, though. [08:16] He's just...there. [08:16] back to arch for the 5th time I guess [08:16] you are seriously moaning about the downfall of the operating system because they changed the word from sessions to startup? [08:16] hi [08:16] thanks Th3raid0r - anything similar for pulseaudio? [08:16] mice are pervasive little creatures [08:16] I don't get the Ubuntu boot splash or login screen. [08:16] please how do i resolve the problem of a white blinking cursor and jaunty not booting? [08:16] ubuntu studio isn't listed there [08:16] I have the Xubuntu one for some reason [08:16] unimatrix: it didnt help [08:16] I would very much like for it to go away, though...mostly because I'm not using Xubuntu.

[08:18] unimatrix: I think im going to try and go back to old versions of flash - thank you for your help [08:18] Purgin' now. [08:18] Admiral-Awesome: because it solve alot of archetectual problems with alsa, and it allows for configure of sound that even a computer noob can learn to use. [08:18] Shwack: okay, good luck [08:18] Zeero: I think we were all a monkey's relative at some point in life, lol [08:18] i have a problem with my jaunty jackalope. when i boot, it doesnt boot to desktop it jsut shows a black screen and a blinking white cursor at the top left corner and it just stays there [08:19] Admiral-Awesome, what is wrong with pulse audio? [08:19] Admiral-Awesome: btw, this might help with disabling pulse, it's for jaunty, but since it doesn't involve uninstalling anything it might work in karmic: http://idyllictux.wordpress.com/2009/04/21/ubuntu-904-jaunty-keeping-the-beast-pulseaudio-at-bay/ [08:19] hacker: perhaps you should type " sudo do-release-upgrade " [08:19] to upgrade to 9.10, do I run "do-release-upgrade"??? [08:19] Ya I know it well I was just hoping ubuntu had finally stepped up ripps [08:19] For to make a karmic. [08:19] or sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [08:19] ok, anyone know how to create a bootable drive / usb stick for ubuntu from osx? [08:19] mvalviar: oh, i see what's wrong. cdimage.ubuntu.com isn't up or is super slow so you need an alternate way to get the torrent [08:19] loquitus: The former. [08:20] fahadsadah: what is the latter for? [08:20] Guys, for anyone that is complaining about pulse audio, you can still go to the terminal and use alsamixer and have the same old terminal interface. [08:20] The latter will work if you change /etc/apt/sources.list to point at karmic repositories. [08:20] lol ok, I had 2 partitions with linux on them..and removed them after installing ubuntu cause i like it...problem is now grub wont give me a menu it just crashes at partition not found..im on the live cd now btw [08:20] examancer: should i just wait for it to be up? [08:20] Admiral-Awesome: actually, pulse has made alot of improvements, and lot of it's problems come from the fact the alsa drivers are a mess, there is little consistensy between the mixers and operations between cards [08:20] ya I saw that [08:20] Also, alsa has a stupid limitation on the number of streams that can play. [08:21] ripps: Lol, wait a second? [08:21] mvalviar: you might want to try a torrent tracker. all the sites seem to be linking to that same cdimage.ubuntu.com link [08:21] Ubuntu isn't using ALSA anymore? [08:21] fahadsadah: pluse is layer on top of alsa [08:21] i can't find anywhere hosting the .torrent directly either [08:21] Has anyone had any luck scaling down their own card's frequency range to better comply with an older monitor? [08:21] Maybe using Xorg or some other tool? it is beginning to bug me. [08:21] Yeah, alsa is still very much there [08:21] Fail. [08:21] anyone? [08:21] anyone else experiencing PROBLEMS with intel cards now? for me its an gm965 that gives me only half the fps @ glxgears after the installation of 9.10 [08:21] Still Xubuntu. [08:22] It's just that I don't use Xubuntu... [08:22] How to add a user to sudoers? [08:22] mvalviar: http://www.mininova.org/search/?search=ubuntu+studio&cat=0 [08:22] Why is he there? [08:22] Zeero: have you reinstalled ubuntu-artwork? [08:22] Yes. [08:22] anyway I can still play regnum with openal so it fine [08:22] And purged the xubuntu artwork. [08:22] the first two appear to be what you're looking for [08:22] It's the karmic boot load progressy thingy. [08:23] It looks like little fireflies. [08:23] Zero: what does lsb_release -a say? [08:23] why didnt they go grub2? [08:23] Axius: sudo visudo [08:23] Zeero: okay, have you tried installing the package ubuntu-xsplash-artwork? [08:23] Wait a second, sorry.

[08:24] Has anyone had any luck scaling down their own card's frequency range to better comply with an older monitor?

I really need to get it fixed soon, i need some sleep... 2 AM here in AZ === rgs is now known as Guest48131 [08:24] someone please help. ubuntu 9.04 not booting to desktop. it just stops at a black screen with a white blinking cursor [08:24] Yes...but how and why the Xubuntu boot stuff got here... [08:24] A more interesting question. [08:25] examancer: this is the first time i'll be installing from scratch. Can I create a startup usb from the iso and install from there? [08:25] hacker, wild guess, ddo you get to grub? [08:25] Indeed, Zeero, Indeed [08:25] Zeero: Perhaps you unintentionally installed Xubuntu packages. [08:25] That has to be it... [08:25] I just want to know why I cant use sessions anymore and saying startup is the same them im laughing [08:25] mvalviar: yes. if you are currently in windows use unetbootin [08:25] yes i did [08:25] But I don't know how that could be an accident. [08:25] if you are in ubuntu you can use that or another app [08:26] And that xplash artork package told me it didn't exist. [08:26] hello, I've got some networking difficulties. I'm running Ubuntu 9.04. the NetworkManager states that there are no valid active connections found, and yet through Network Tools, I can ping, tracert, etc. IRC works, but web browsers and other internet apps behave as though the network cable is disconnected. [08:26] Admiral-Awesome: what about "sessions" cant you use? [08:26] examancer: i'm in ubuntu jj :) [08:26] So, I am guessing no one can answer my question. The Forums are failing me as well. [08:26] unimatrix: FREEEDDOOMMMMM - off the phone finally - holy mother of god that was hard to sit through.. anyway it seems enough people have the problem to where there will be a fix soon. I really do appreciate the help [08:26] im pretty sure the options inside those dialogs are identical to what they were before [08:26] Woo! Synaptic crashed. [08:26] mvalviar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick [08:26] Linux is awesome [08:26] Zeero: you spelled it wrong ubuntu-xsplash-artwork [08:27] I can't believe i waited this long to try it out [08:27] Yeah...that's what I typed. [08:27] Fuck windows [08:27] pardon my french [08:27] Shwack: it's unfortunate that we can't really fix flash, it all depends on adobe, because the damn thing is closed source [08:27] Shwack: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [08:27] NetworkManager lists no wired connections. adding one, even manually adding IP and DNS addresses is unsuccessful. [08:27] Zeero: Hmm... search it in synaptic instead of apt [08:27] Wait. [08:27] Fail. [08:27] Does anyone know if I can set up a samba share that uses an ext3 file system and if so where I can find the documentation to do so? I'm tired of using my Shared folders under NTFS as it is ridiculously slow [08:27] But synaptic just crashed on me. [08:27] this updatedb.mlocate is KILLING me . Everything just STOPS while it is active.. I started killing apps, till I realised that it hin that slows my machine every DAY in exact same time.. HOW do I change priority settings for the sucker? [08:28] Zeero: Od [08:28] Crash report was apparrently broken. [08:28] *Odd [08:28] anyone else experiencing PROBLEMS with intel cards now? for me its an gm965 that gives me only half the fps @ glxgears after the installation of 9.10 [08:28] I DID type it wrong.

[08:28] Admiral-Awesome: http://www.techotopia.com/images/b/b5/Ubuntu_desktop_session_options2.jpg [08:28] Or rather...I forgot "install" [08:28] whats the difference? [08:28] how can i access the microphone by SSH? [08:28] /facepalm [08:28] could anyone help me with my ssh problem. I can ping the machine but i can't connect to it. [08:28] I'm gonna relog and try this again. Back in 30 seconds (fast boot is fast). [08:29] Zeero: ah, it is okay, we all screw up sometimes... I rather often [08:29] does anyone know whether there is a workaround for this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+bug/148181? it's really annoying [08:29] I see what u did there but its not 9.04 style...Again they dumbed it down [08:29] xenefungus, It is known that Intel drivers on newer Ubuntu still sucks. Bit they were the better ones on previous Ubuntus. That is because of driver model change in Linux. it will pay off after year or something. [08:29] lol Has anybody tried the glrfx drivers with native games...Not impressed [08:30] Please someone for the love of god, point me in some direction to solve my problem, which, to reitterate, is Has anyone had any luck scaling down their own card's frequency range to better comply with an older monitor? [08:30] anyone mind helping me with a SLI issue? [08:30] Maybe using Xorg or some other tool? [08:30] nikolam: thansk, any way to use the previous drivers? they worked just fine. [08:30] hi [08:30] Admiral-Awesome: that screenshot was from may 2009. it was 9.04 [08:30] i only use vesa [08:30] and why do they say improved support for intel cards when its isnt true at all? [08:30] yes I know [08:31] Mostly fixed it, guys. [08:31] nikolam, you'll have a cronjob in /etc/cron.daily/ for updatedb -- something like /etc/cron.daily/slocate, you just edit the file and give updatedb a nice nice value [08:31] say, after 9.10 install I noticed that /usr/lib/debug is around 1GB, I'm sure that wasn't the case before upgrading... can I delete it if I don't want the debug libraries? [08:31] The rat still appears at the very beginning...and also at shutdown. [08:31] xenefungus, not that I know. that may be one of reasons I stayed with latest LTS release. And added newer apps from getdeb.net on top of it etc. [08:31] But my boot load progress shower thingy is Ubuntu. [08:31] Huzzah! [08:31] unop, thank you, will see to it, thanks [08:31] does anyone know if 9.10 final is compatible with the realtek wifi card on the newest thinkpad x200s? i know that it didn't work on the rc version a few days ago... [08:31] I just want sessions back or back to arch its simple [08:32] hey all, can't seem to upgrade to 9.10. I click on update manager, click upgrade distribution, and it comes up with release notes, I click upgrade and it closes without any messages [08:32] !wifi | ubunteez [08:32] Looking to buy a decently priced netbook, preferably with a 12 inch screen, any recommendations? [08:32] !wifi [08:32] ubunteez: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [08:32] ubunteez, You can simly test it by downloading ISO, burnin CD and booting from it. [08:32] Admiral-Awesome: Go back to Arch. It's not a big deal. It's really not. Linux is still Linux for the most part. As long as you're not switching back to Windows or Mac, we're solid. [08:33] If Arch suits your needs better, there's no question. [08:33] Admiral-Awesome: are you complaining about something from before 9.04 then? [08:33] ubuntuforums contributors said that the card is not compatible [08:33] lumis, Dell have some offers, 10 inch i think, with pre-installed Ubuntu [08:33] Zeero: Gratz, now if you want to speed up your boot even more, edit the second line of your grub boot and add profile, you should see a performance increase not on that boot, but everyone thereafter (don't make that change permanent tho) [08:33] and I wouldnt mind knowing what these elusive sessions do [08:34] Admiral-Awesome: so what's the deal with this sessions thing? did 9.10 lose a feature? I'm not familiar with what you mean by sessions [08:34] Zeero, do one using Arch can use Ubuntu repositories and packages? If not, I may ask.. why bother? [08:34] yes its gone [08:34] That's not the point, nikolam. [08:34] nikolam, no arch has seperate repositories and their own build system [08:34] The point is that he really really wants a particular feature. Ubuntu doesn't have it. Arch does. [08:34] They seem to think they amalgamated it with startup stuff but thats a joke [08:35] but anyway I'll get over it [08:35] I'm wondering whether to upgrade to 9.10 now or wait a bit until the bugs are maybe a bit more ironed out.. ? [08:35] Aha Zeero I didnt pay atention what would he want [08:35] examancer: as much as I can extract he is annoyed they changed the menu "sessions" to "startup" [08:35] since they are identical over the last release [08:35] Admiral-Awesome: what do you mean by sessions? switch user should save your session and allow someone else to login to X [08:35] Admiral-Awesome, what exactly is missing from sessions that you want? [08:35] Also th3raid0r: modify the second line? Or delete it? [08:35] Well, I must leave guys, if anyone hears anything about adjusting the frequency range to their monitor, hit me up so i can use the proprietary drivers. [08:36] hmm I dont think u get what Im saying [08:36] Zeero- modify, but not permenantly [08:36] Admiral-Awesome: i don't think i do either.. that's why i'm asking you to clarify [08:36] th3raid0r, you should be able to set refresh rate in your xorg.conf [08:36] It's the grub-install(8), grub-floppy(8) line... [08:36] Zeero: when you boot, make the change there [08:36] Ohhh... [08:36] Not menu.lst. [08:36] Admiral-Awesome, me neither. I suppose you would like opened programs to stay open or the same apps to start next time you log in or something? [08:36] duncan_: I know this, but i can never seem to make it work. [08:37] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-user-docs/+bug/439775 [08:37] bah, need to file a bug report [08:37] Zeero: lol, nope [08:37] .wub 1 [08:37] Well darn. [08:37] Ew, sorry [08:37] th3raid0r, what is your monitor rated for? [08:37] anyone on the 910 [08:37] Hokay. Thanks for the help, t3raid0rz. [08:37] Your name is hard to type. [08:37] is there a way to use sound mixer app that has all channels separetly or only the new one that has only one volume? [08:37] Arch looks interesting. kind of in their own little work it looks like. rolled their own package manager [08:37] hello [08:37] any good? like apt good? or rpm good? huge difference :-P [08:37] i need some help please [08:38] i have installed 9.10 dual boot [08:38] ok [08:38] I stopped using arch I got tired of stability issues and updates breaking functionality, it's not good for a work platform [08:38] doen anyone experienced X server crashes in Karmic?

[08:39] First of all [08:39] Admiral-Awesome: which is funny because so many linux enthusiast I know are atheist [08:39] :-P [08:40] LexR: ok now what? [08:40] Oh Im a athiest [08:40] Congratulations to the Ubuntu community for the new release! [08:40] ubuntuce.com [08:40] I'll hug somebody who uses Fedora, or Arch, or Open SUSE, or anything.

[08:40] is anyone available to assist me with a sound issue? [08:40] Buddhist here... lol [08:40] demetris_, now, open a file /boot/grub/menu.lst [08:40] Admiral-Awesome: it tells how to add the dialog back using gconf-editor === andy is now known as Guest43239 [08:40] discussing religion on IRC, not a good idea [08:40] ...But not someone who uses Mint. [08:40] They cheated. [08:40] lol [08:40] There are religious ubuntu users: ubuntuce.com [08:40] What is the problem samekhmem? [08:40] Second of all: Why didn't Firefox 3.5.4 hit the repos yet?

[08:43] mistrynitesh, use the livecd and test yourself :D but i heard there are problems with the 64 [08:43] LexR: i don't think anyone was bothered by the religious distros. i think the point was to draw a contrast since we were talking about people's almost religious devotion to distros sometimes despite the fact that many linux users are atheist. clearly not all though [08:43] and while ubuntu isnt entirely to blame, the way it blows up completely when turning acpi off fixes it work work fine does seem like something that could be done better [08:43] Good question, LexR. [08:43] ela re demetri [08:43] hard to pigeon hole a linux user really [08:43] zeero: empty file [08:43] no sound in general or are u trying to play a game...Then use openal-soft [08:43] ela [08:43] Admiral-Awesome, no sound in general [08:43] except for the living in mom's basement thing. clearly that's always true ":-P [08:43] Why didn't Firefox 3.5.4 hit the repos yet?

Great work on Karmic! (other than it broke my tty customisation). When you run 'aptitude update' it prints a status message, for example 'Current status: 4 updates [+4], 3623 new [+14]'. Is there a way to get this information without doing an aptitude update ? [08:47] and ask me to import things from the partition [08:47] Is there an IRC channel for the Ubuntu repository administration? [08:47] cviorel, mine does not continue past the message, it proceeds to wait indefinitely [08:48] #breunhild [08:48] DaveHope: apt-get update should print all updates available without having to download them [08:48] demetris_, odd, it added my windows7 by default, I know during development there were some bugs, did you run from a development version or release?

[09:10] And4713[LT], I am using EXT4 for all my partitions [09:10] if you can right a script to eject it automatically then you dont have to do it manually [09:10] hi. [09:10] demetris_: then download it from www.ati.com and run it [09:10] I need help with nvidia card. [09:10] Ihave this card: [09:10] normit08: writing a script is not the ubuntu way! [09:10] Fayd, dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc, the last config screen will tell you which device grub will install on. [09:10] demetris_, I think you can install newer version, 9.10 is out. I used 9.9 on jaunty [09:11] Please help. I have tried everything. I have -no- sound. [09:11] 05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G71 [GeForce 7300 GS] (rev a1) [09:11] im looking fo a script as we speak [09:11] I have upgraded jaunty to karmic. [09:11] well as a said, it is a temporary solution [09:11] lexr: where i can find it [09:11] cviorel, see I am using ext2 for /boot and then ext3 for / and /var, I wonder if that has something to do with it [09:11] ActionParsnip1:i have only one use..it happens in karmic only [09:11] sobersabre: ok, can you keep your text to 1 line, makes it easier to read [09:11] And nvidia doesn't work as now. [09:11] ActionParsnip1: it returns flashplugin-installer and flashplugin-nonfree [09:11] one question please... the repositories are overloaded??? They don't work!! [09:11] jcdutton, do i do that from a liveCD? as i can't boot into the installed ubuntu install right now [09:11] normit08: Right. Thank you for your assistance. I'll try your fix "safely remove" and report back. Thank you. [09:11] 9.10 dont support 9600 pro! [09:11] kankan_: boot to root recovery console and make a new user to test [09:11] ActionParsnip1: ok. I need to force rebuild the kernel driver, probably with dkms, but I don't know how to do this. [09:11] or is? [09:11] anywho, my question is, with empathy i can see anyone in the people nearby thing [09:11] demetris_, you have two options: install fglrx from the repo (9.9) or download from ati site veriosn 9.10. [09:12] Shwack: uninstall both, then install flashplugin-nonfree only, you will need to close then reopen your browser [09:12] lexr: does it support 9600 ? [09:12] how do I make my system build the nvidia driver ? [09:12] Fayd, yes, you can use the liveCD for that [09:12] ok, had to install alternative, how do I let make karmic login automatically? [09:12] * daleharvey the new login screen is nasty btw [09:12] but i must say this is a very nice release. [09:12] Please help. I have tried everything. I have -no- sound. [09:12] And4713[LT], I am pretty sure is not an issue, this bug afects all filesystem types.... I also tried ext3, same behaviour [09:12] Please help. I have tried everything. I have -no- sound. [09:12] daleharvey: google up autologin [09:12] daleharvey: really? it was getting mad reviews before [09:12] sobersabre: what is the output of: lsb_release -c [09:12] and you have it in gdm settings. [09:12] /Nick ki4cgp [09:13] Please help. I have tried everything. I have -no- sound. [09:13] demetris_, just a sec... [09:13] ActionParsnip1: karmic [09:13] ActionParsnip1: I did this and it automatically selected flashplugin-installer to install with it. I will uninstall both and try again making sure only flashplugin-nonfree is checked. Brb. [09:13] i found a piece of software called freebcd that claims to set up boot.ini to allow for other os's... but when i tell it to go to the linux partition, it doesn't work [09:13] Oh, is there a way i can make my wireless turn off with a keyboard shortcut [09:13] ok [09:13] cviorel, yes but yours displayed the message and booted all the way, whereas mine did not finish booting [09:13] do i need to install grub to the linux partition? [09:13] Please help. I have tried everything. I have -no- sound. [09:13] Please help. I have tried everything. I have -no- sound. [09:13] Please help. I have tried everything. I have -no- sound. [09:13] samekhmem: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [09:13] I have a fairly fresh install of 9.04 (a month or so old) which is working pretty nicely. Is there much chance that upgrading (not reinstalling) to 9.10 will cause any problems? The word on the street is that upgrading isn't as reliable as reinstalling. [09:13] guys [09:13] I have a quick question [09:13] a black shadow blocks my screen when many tabs are open..is there any way to fix it? [09:13] kernel: Linux computer 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:04:26 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux [09:13] I have no sound PLEASE HELP [09:13] sobersabre: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-185-modaliases nvidia-glx-185 [09:13] And4713[LT], yes. that's true [09:13] I started with the server version, and installed all the desktops(gnome, kde, xfce4, fluxbox, etc) over time. I no longer have a cdrom, but I want to get a fresh start. [09:13] How compatible with .NET is mono? [09:13] ActionParsnip1: trying... [09:13] samekhmem: patience [09:13] how do I remove all that stuff? [09:14] cheers sobersabre [09:14] Shwack: use the nonfree only, the installer package may be confusing stuff [09:14] demetris_, i dont think so, on amd's site, 9600 prompts 9.3 version. just download it and install it. it is a shell script, just run it as sudo and click next next finish :) [09:14] ActionParsnip1: Already installed. [09:14] ActionParsnip1: Mark for removal or Mark for Complete Removal? [09:14] Fayd, use the livecd to reinstall grub-pc [09:14] normit08: you sure you should be using ubuntu and not something else more suitable for what you seem to want in a system? [09:14] LEXR: will do that! [09:14] thanks man [09:14] i have 4650, it works like that :) [09:14] sobersabre: then run: sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia*; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove [09:15] you're welcome demetris_ :) [09:15] Fayd, it should automatically detect your linux and windows and them provide you with a grub boot menu to choose linux or windows [09:15] sobersabre: then reboot, then rerun the command I gave [09:15] reboot to linux! [09:15] i hope i dont break anything [09:15] Shwack: just use command line, less confusing [09:15] i definatly want ubuntu. all i want to be able to do is use the wireless slider. i have been using ubuntu for 2 years now [09:15] fingers crossed [09:15] ActionParsnip1: I don't have to reboot, since the drivers are NOT present currently. [09:15] normit08: k [09:15] keep ya fingers crossed at all times :-p [09:15] * Avash notifies every one who are fun lovers to join channe #avash which is truly a fun channel [09:15] i'll try that now. [09:16] Fayd, it is possible that grub was not able to install on your HD. One reason is that there is not enough space in the boot sectors for it. [09:16] sobersabre: fine, but they may be loaded, just not working. Your call [09:16] ActionParsnip1: I am actually a complete linux noob. I have been watching terminal intro videos but dont have complete confidence yet [09:16] Coldhak: might be easier just to do a fresh install...i don't think there is a way to remove just xfce or things like that, as the xfce desktop is a pointer to all the packages that get installed [09:16] ActionParsnip1: NO, they're not loaded, lsmod doesn't show them. [09:16] ActionParsnip1: I just got ubuntu this week :) [09:16] Fayd, a "fdisk -u -l /dev/sda" should tell you how much space there is. The first "start" should be 63 or above [09:16] *without removing each of the packages individually [09:16] ActionParsnip1: are nvidia drivers supposed to be shown in lsmod when loaded ? [09:16] :) [09:16] at the login splash screen i have option to log into ubuntu or my main account. as soon as i authenticate it produces the terminal window and nothing else [09:17] Coldhak: you want just gnome? [09:17] I have a problem with my webcam, used to work on Jaunty now it doesn't on Karmic, any idea ? [09:17] Does someone know how i can get my internal speaker to work? [09:17] Shwack: terminal..intro..VIDEOS? I am pretty sure that's the most disgusting thing I've heard all week [09:17] OH! it builds finally! [09:17] :) [09:17] helpme, did you create a new user? === andrew_ is now known as Guest925 [09:17] how do i tell ubuntu, at gdm, to use .xession instead of gnome? [09:17] Shwack: in terminal run: sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfree; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [09:17] i created a user when i installed [09:17] lowlycoder: at login, there is that option [09:17] lowlycoder: i think it's the session option at login bottom screen [09:17] sobersabre: i believe so [09:18] hey guys im on windows 7 now and i want to shrink my partition so i can make room for ubuntu, problem is i can only shrink 1mb, anyone know of any programs that moves files located at the end of the partition to towards the start? [09:18] Shwack: http://cb.vu/unixtoolbox.xhtml this is good [09:18] DigitalKiwi: using the terminal has helped me with plenty sorry if I didn't use the correct terms [09:18] billdozor: there is a way, check out the !purekde and !puregnome factoids.. [09:18] hello !my amule 2.2.6 kad firewalled how to do?? [09:18] sobersabre: yes it does [09:18] Shwack: no I'm not against the terminal, I spend most of my time in one, I'm against the idea of videos showing how to use it [09:18] compiz probably broke, and it tries to start when you log in, thus the screen. Maybe I am mistaken. [09:18] bastid_razor: no, I want just what comes with the server version [09:19] i'm a noob. its prolly something i did when installing flash. frustrating because everything worked great till i decided to reboot [09:19] Cantcme: a defrag may help, never resized personally. I always plan my partitions [09:19] re bastide_raZor: good to know, thanks [09:19] i'm asking if there's an easy way to make the the install like-new, or if I've got to figure out how to get a cdrom. [09:19] Armageddon , dto : I only see xterm, gnome, and gnome failsafe [09:19] DigitalKiwi: lol - well surprisingly just seeing ls, ls -a, running a program with ./ just those few things made all the diff [09:19] ActionParsnip1: please, my HDA Audio hasn't started since few last boots... how could I re-enable it? [09:19] Shwack: http://omploader.org/vMjgyag [09:19] SunlessHalo: ask the channel, not me [09:19] lowlycoder: do you have xsession installed ? [09:19] I cannot claim that is the problem, mine problem was similar on kde4, when I enabled compiz, it broke the similar way. [09:19] hi!when i am start the install of wubi it's came up windows-no disk why? [09:20] ActionParsnip1: yeh ive used the defragger built it in windows but it doesnt seem very good, so im about to try one by auslogic [09:20] ActionParsnip1: Thanks, man. the problem was as follows: the upgrade was interrupted in the middle. as a result I had to boot into single mode (with still jaunty kernel), and there to run dpkg --configure -a. then the drivers for the old kernel were built [09:20] SunlessHalo: and in reply. I dont know how to resolve sound issues as Ive never had a single sound issue [09:20] sobersabre: awesome [09:20] sobersabre: glad you got the gold [09:20] now it won't install from the usb either [09:20] well... my issue is that my HDA Audio hasn't started since few last boots... how could I re-enable it? [09:20] hey guys, does anyone know how I can install ubuntu without installing grub/lilo at all? [09:20] do you now wh [09:21] SunlessHalo: what version of ubuntu are you using ? [09:21] just sits there with a shiny ubuntu icon [09:21] ActionParsnip1: I wish I knew all the commands you do [09:21] is xsessin package lxsession? [09:21] ActionParsnip1: and then after reboot the karmic kernel had no drivers, and it started the annoying blinkage... so I had to do the dancing over ssh, [09:21] the --purge was the key thing. [09:21] thanks. [09:21] DaDa_, you could probably install a different bootloader, but as far as I know, you need to have one. [09:21] Shwack: you'll learn what you need to know as you use the terminal [09:21] Shwack: read that firrst link I gave you and you're off to a good start [09:21] Dada_, I dunno, I think you need a bootloader. [09:21] Dada_: if you are using the basic install CD, in last step you may press "advanced options" and "don't install boot loader" [09:21] Dada_: yes, when you install, the last phase, you get to choose if to or not install a bootloader [09:21] Coldhak: I have one already, so I only need to prevent it from installing anything over it [09:21] gonna look for windows 7 disk [09:21] ahh, okay [09:21] sobersabre: --purge gets rid of the old config files that arent in ~ [09:22] Thanks [09:22] ActionParsnip1: it just finished - testing now - fingers crossed [09:22] Hi folks, the ubuntu installer isnt detecting my hard disks correctly. It thinks theyre in a raid, and wont let me pick an individual disk [09:22] Dada_: why not ? the new grub works fine [09:22] * Dada_ uses chameleon boot loader [09:22] Dada_: ok [09:22] because I also boot Mac OS X [09:22] hi all, anybody had issues installing on virtualbox? [09:22] Shwack: i'm sure theres some stuff you could show me in other OSs === Guest47408 is now known as phzin [09:22] Gunk: what's the issue ? [09:22] Armageddon: I'm using Kubuntu Karmic [09:23] :) how do you display that sort of a messge? (Dada_ uses chameleon boot loader) [09:23] up-to-date [09:23] SunlessHalo: and you have a problem with what exactly ? [09:23] anyone had any luck enabling desktop effects on intel 82845G onboard? [09:23] LexR: use /me blah blah [09:23] * Dada_ hello [09:23] thanx Dada_ [09:23] * DigitalKiwi blah blah [09:23] arma: i hope it's a rtfm issue, but everytime i choose install it seems to start up the live-cd [09:23] by golly, it worked! [09:23] i.e. i'm presented with a login screen [09:23] the sound used to be fine, except some crashes caused by amaroK [09:24] SunlessHalo: and now it doesn't work ? [09:24] are you using ALSA driver ? [09:24] Gunk: I don't quite get your problem [09:24] Armageddon: but, today morning the sound just didn't load... pulseaudio plays the system bell, but the main sound Inte HDA Realtek ALC660-VD doesn't work at all [09:24] !kubuntu | SunlessHalo [09:24] SunlessHalo: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE [09:25] hey action ran lm sensors and it didnt recognize the graphic card...(unknown adapter) [09:25] Can someone help me connect my wireless from CLI?? [09:25] Armageddon: I hardly suppose the problem could be treated differently [09:25] jimbeam12: thats all i know dude. i don't use sensors [09:25] with 9.04 if i chose install, the install would startup, i could choose location, disk, etc etc. There was no login screen [09:25] jack_spratt: look at iwconfig [09:25] in the other channel [09:25] SunlessHalo: HDA is out from HDMI [09:25] ActionParsnip1: Video playback in fullscreen is dramatically improved. It only lags when moving my mouse around in circles. Before if i did this it would take 5-10 seconds to recover after moving mouse in circles - now it takes about 1-2 seconds to recover. [09:25] is there any other program i can use [09:25] icreroot [09:25] but with 9.10 i'm presented with a login box [09:25] SunlessHalo: I don't think it will work on your speakers if they are not plugged HDMI [09:26] got any problem with sun jdk and koala? [09:26] before the install even begins [09:26] iceroot: will that change the way it connects once I get back into gui? I just want to connect temporarily and not mess up my existing configuration for gui [09:26] Shwack: yeah the installer packge is a bit weird in my experience. Ipersonally use the native 64bit plugin (which is alpha) but runs well [09:26] NKjoep: why should it? [09:26] i have read about new 9.10 that will starts faster than 9.04 :P [09:26] Gunk: login screen where you put your password and stuff, there is an option there to choose which DE to login into [09:26] after selecting ubuntu 9.10 from grub menu .when i hit enter after sometime the screen gets blank. [09:26] but its starting slower after update [09:26] :p [09:26] old sound app was waaaay better. [09:26] Armageddon: I am using centrino1duo asus laptop, the HDA was responsible for all sound [09:26] jack_spratt: dont think so [09:26] ActionParsnip1: it hardly seems right for a HT 3.4 Ghz with 2gigs ram and nvidia 8800 to be stuttering at all though [09:26] SunlessHalo: I'd try another option then the HDA [09:26] iceroot: every time i click a "cancel" button... eclipse simply die.... [09:26] Shwack: flash sucks [09:27] apache2-ssl-certificate: command not found, need help apache2-commons installed [09:27] ActionParsnip1: as somebody who never stopped writing html in notepad.exe, i agree [09:27] should i install chromium? [09:27] SunlessHalo: try internal audio [09:27] Armageddon: explain me, please [09:27] iceroot: thanks :) [09:27] * DigitalKiwi hands SunlessHalo a 'to' [09:27] Right, my problem is that I'm running a software OpenGL emulator. Can anybody hint as to why that might be? [09:27] ActionParsnip1: But, I can watch my videos now thanks to you. Thank you very much. === Garandil_ is now known as Garandil [09:28] SunlessHalo: well I use gnome so it is fairly different that's why you need people using KDE to help, BUT on gnome, I go to sound preferences, I choose Hardware and I choose which one to use [09:28] Shwack: well its proprietary to adobe so it can only be improved by adobe so you re screwed unless you use the open alternatives that dont implement some functionality in the adobe flash [09:28] SunlessHalo: I have an internal Audio and an HDMI one [09:28] all i see is a coffee coloured screen with a the ubuntu logo and a login button beneath it, this is the first thing i see after pressing install at the cd-boot menu [09:28] s/re/are [09:28] ok, [09:28] * SunlessHalo switches to gnome now [09:28] SunlessHalo: with inputs and outputs [09:28] serious problem!! getting blank screen after logging in. [09:28] My Sound Icon is gone. When I try to access Sound Preferences I get "Waiting for sound system to respond" and I have NO audio at all. PLEASE HELP!!! [09:28] :/ [09:29] samekhmem: which version of ubuntu ? [09:29] he needs more screen + irssi [09:29] Armageddon, 9.10 [09:29] !help [09:29] ActionParsnip1: I'm fine with that - I'm loving linux and the open source scene and would rather throw up than go back to windows. [09:29] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [09:29] samekhmem: did you update [09:29] Armageddon, apt-get update? yes [09:29] Shwack: same, except my work lappy is XP [09:29] samekhmem: apt-get upgrade too [09:30] XP is nice - Vista pushed me to try linux and i'm glad i did [09:30] Armageddon, did that [09:30] Vista was on par with mac [09:30] Shwack: random BSODs in 2000 I couldnt diagnose pushed me to linux [09:30] samekhmem: try opening the hardware Drivers does it open ? [09:30] Armageddon, yes, and it lists a video card. [09:31] Is apt-get autoremove safe to do? [09:31] did you install that ? [09:31] ActionParsnip1: I'll admit watching a youtube video of the Cube is what sealed the deal.... lol [09:31] samekhmem: did you install that ? [09:31] billdozor: yes [09:31] cviorel, same story when mounting it as ext3 the question is why only the /boot partition, grub isnt complaining about it [09:31] Armageddon, yes. it was effortless, I installed it while trying to get audio working [09:31] Shwack: i hate the cube, LXDE baby [09:31] Shwack: ;_; if you mean the compiz cube... [09:31] sensors detect generates this report as follows..... #modprobe unknown adapter NVIDIA i2c adapter [09:31] lxde is not that nice [09:31] samekhmem: did you restart after installing all updates and drivers ? [09:31] cr [09:31] Armageddon, I opened up hardware drivers and it asked if i wanted to upgrade to proprietary drivers [09:31] Armageddon, i did [09:32] Armageddon, i have multiple times during this ordeal [09:32] samekhmem: and the sound still doesn't work ? [09:32] * SunlessHalo re on gnome [09:32] how on earth do you disable the password prompt on resume from suspend? [09:32] Armageddon: what shall I also do now? [09:32] samekhmem: did you try opening the sound options ? [09:32] Armageddon, worse, I can't even access the sound preferences anymore. I get, "waiting for sound to respond" [09:32] gnome didn't even play the system bell :\ [09:32] SunlessHalo: right click on the sound button, go to preferences [09:32] Vegar: there used to be some gconf options [09:32] samekhmem: weird... [09:32] Armageddon, tell - me - about - it. [09:33] jrib: they don't seem to work anymore since I upgraded to karmic [09:33] DigitalKiwi and ActionParsnip1: I don't understand how you can not like the cube. I dont spin it around with my mouse, I just enjoy the transition to other desktops if i click them. [09:33] samekhmem: don't worry I also have problems that I can't solve till now ;) [09:33] Armageddon, I've been at this for HOURS [09:33] Armageddon, :D [09:33] I've been at this for months samekhmem [09:33] Armageddon, lol [09:33] samekhmem: no bluetooth, can't shutdown, and no cam [09:33] Shwack: i use ctrl+alt+ left or right and it switches instantly [09:33] Armageddon, omg [09:33] fok [09:33] Shwack, what cube do you speak of [09:33] samekhmem: but I love linux too much [09:33] it works now [09:33] hi i need to boot my ubuntu 9.10 iso file from grub i dont have cd drive or usbstick can you help me ? [09:33] SunlessHalo: yes ? [09:33] SunlessHalo: see ! [09:34] ActionParsnip1: Ctrl + Alt + left and right is niiiiiice [09:34] Armageddon, I love it too. And I am a big supporter of Ubuntu. I'm South African, like Mark Shuttleworth... [09:34] well, not sure if it will work back on kde as well :\ [09:34] ActionParsnip1: That's exactly the feel I like... a very quick transition. [09:34] illusion: grub is a bootloader, I don't think you can boot a non operating system with it [09:34] ActionParsnip1: What is lxde? [09:34] illusion: unless I'm wrong [09:34] Armageddon, can't help me? [09:34] Aragon: http://pastebin.ca/1649031 [09:34] Shwack: but you have an animation to run for it which takes time [09:34] samekhmem: sorry mate, I have no idea !

(dpkg-reconfigure, xorg.conf) [09:36] DigitalKiwi: if you have any idea how, can you help illusion ? [09:36] ActionParsnip1: you do know lxde is just openbox with a few crappy apps (though there are one or two nice ones) right? [09:36] DigitalKiwi - It's not that I wouldn't love to spend all my time in a terminal. I dream about encryption algorithms at night... it's just that I've been using linux for exactly 4 days now and I'm soaking it all up with the GUI cuz there's just too much to try and not enough time to learn the commands :) [09:36] is there a way to revert the system back to default settings? [09:36] DigitalKiwi: indeed [09:36] Armageddon: i have 2 hard drive i extract the iso image to second hard drive and configure grub to boot from vmzlinuz in 2 hard but i got casper error [09:36] Armageddon: I've mever personally done it and the only person I know of to have done it (though I'm sure others have) is not online atm [09:37] I can't get 9.04 to upgrade from the 9.10 alternate iso. I mount it and no upgrade dialog appears. :( [09:37] Armageddon: caper guive me this error : cant read /dev/sr0 [09:37] Armageddon: you were right, it's a kde issue, but I can't fix it yet :( [09:37] JamesD1: add the CDRom into Software source, apt-get update and then use apt-get dist-upgrade [09:38] ok [09:38] gnome worked fine on defaults... [09:38] SunlessHalo: it might be the same problem with KDE, change the driver you are using on KDE into another one [09:38] do I need extra space while upgrading? [09:38] Kartagis: probably [09:38] shoudl tell you how much will be downloaded [09:38] JamesD1: mount the CD then run: gksu "sh /media/cdrom0/cdromupgrade" [09:39] illusion: this might help http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/925285.html [09:39] JamesD1: it won't autorun for you, you have to kick off the script [09:39] Armageddon: thnx i will try it [09:39] ActionParsnip1: !info lxde | returns dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf [09:39] woops [09:39] illusion: wait [09:39] only in english ? how join a french canal ?

[09:40] sucks [09:40] !lubuntu [09:40] Sorry, I don't know anything about lubuntu [09:40] ActionParsnip1: Thanks! :D [09:40] I didn't forget it, it's not good ;D [09:41] hi! [09:41] Armageddon: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu soon to be official release using LXDE [09:41] I like it [09:41] well soon to be official doesn't mean it is known yet [09:41] Armageddon: who said it was known? [09:41] ActionParsnip1: It looks good - can you help me out with the !info command? i couldn't get it to work [09:41] is there a hardware compatibility list for ubuntu ? [09:41] ActionParsnip1: I've been using gnome and I like it so far ! tried everything and came back to Gnome [09:41] !hcl | nimrod0 [09:41] nimrod0: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection [09:42] nimrod0: like what ? [09:42] I've updated my pc to ubutnu 9.10. Unfortunately, I ran into the madwifi problem. I've got an atheros AR5001 adapter and don't know how to get it run. Can you help me? [09:42] great, another less than nice offshoot of debian added to the world, how nice [09:43] what's the command to start the ubuntu-desktop interface [09:43] Shwack: you can use !info to get info on a package [09:43] cviorel, OH MY GOD HAHA, guess what, the mount point isnt empty [09:43] StrangeCharm: startx [09:43] what version of ruby does Koala let you install? [09:44] Actionparsnip: so I could type !info flashplugin_nonfree [09:44] Can i uncheck the 'AT SPI Registry Wrapper' in start-up manager? [09:44] im using devede to convert avi files to burn onto a dvd for use in a standard dvd player. each avi is 170mb but when i add them devede only lets me put 4 epidoes in before it says a 4.7gb dvd is full. but once i burn the .sio with the 4 episodes the iso is only 1.5gb . how can i make it so i can put more episodes on thedvd? [09:44] is the next ubuntu going to be called Lunatic Llama? [09:44] Sonja: 1.9 [09:44] Sonja: and 1.8 [09:44] Armageddon awesome 1.9! [09:44] hi. is it normal the white glowing ubuntu logo stays so long there when i try to install ? or my cd is wrong (=> Trash) [09:44] is the keyserer down at the moment? I'm trying to add a key for a PPA, and its timing out [09:44] TheJosh: It's been down for most of the last two months, IIRC. [09:44] !10.04 [09:44] Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l02bhwofEqw for announcement video. [09:44] and 4.2, Sonja [09:44] i should be able to put 12 avi's on one disc [09:45] TheJosh: Submit the key to any SKS keyserver - pool.sks-keyserver.net - and hope they'll sync soon. [09:45] Armageddon 4.2 of what? [09:45] bigmack83_: depending on the space [09:45] grawity, No I want to use a PPA [09:45] thanks gnea [09:45] Armageddon, depending on the space? [09:45] bigmack83_: not if each AVI is 1Tb in size [09:45] Sonja: an interpreter :/ no idea ! but it depends on ruby 1.8 [09:46] bigmack83_: how big the avi are [09:46] the avi's are only 170mb each, the dvd is a 4.7 [09:46] Armageddon ok cool! <3 [09:46] TheJosh: keyserver.ubuntu.com is linked to pool.sks-keyservers.net; they have the same keys. [09:46] bigmack83_: should work [09:46] ActionParsnip1, 1Tb ? :/ [09:46] TheJosh: If you want to retrieve a key, it'll work too. === NorwayGeek_ is now known as NorwayGeek [09:46] bigmack83_: 1 TeraByte [09:46] Armageddon, yea but after i put 4 into devede it says disc is 98% full and cant put anymore [09:46] bigmack83_: that's 1024GB [09:47] grawity, so why hasn't launchpad been updated? that's a bit dumb. [09:47] bigmack83_: indeed, if the videos are massive then you will fit most likely 0, therfe is no "should" about it, its all about data size [09:47] Armageddon, i know what 1 tb is, i was being sarcastic as there is no way my avi file is 1 tb [09:47] bigmack83_: are you sure you chose 4.7GB dvd ? [09:47] yea [09:47] bigmack83_: there are small DVDs [09:47] i'm so glad i'm not running ubuntu on a 200mhz machine, added packages for openWRT on my router takes forever [09:47] it shows the 4.7 dvd format is selected [09:47] ActionParsnip1, no the avi's are only 170mb [09:47] TheJosh: Dunno. Lazy sysadmins? [09:47] bigmack83_: try using GnomeBaker or Brasero [09:48] grawity, Thanks. [09:48] brasero will burn avi's into a format for dvd player? [09:48] hi. is there documentation for ubuntu for people who are very familiar with linux? i cannot find anything via google or on ubuntu.com. [09:48] bigmack83_: should do so [09:48] bigmack83_: what format does the DVD player read ? [09:48] bigmack83_: if each is 170Mb you can fit 19, I suggest you use Devede [09:48] Has anyone here installed the BFS+BFQ patches for the kernel (i.e. https://launchpad.net/~darxus/+archive/bfsbfq) ?? Had any problems? [09:48] im using devede becuase it has to convert the avi's into mpeg for dvd compatibility [09:49] <_PiLoT_> can anyone let me know how severly the postal strike will affect the shipping of the ubuntu cds [09:49] Can someone plese tell me the version of Evince that comes with Ubuntu 9.04? [09:49] ActionParsnip1, i am using devede, thats whats only letting me put 4 on one disc. after i put 4 in the box it says 98% full [09:49] Salvad: 9.04 or 9.10 ? [09:49] _PiLoT_: the variance is high on delays: i've had stuff next day and stuff delayed by 2 weeks. [09:49] bigmack83_: devede can fit more videos than that too but it will reduce quality [09:49] The 9.04 one. [09:49] Armageddon, mpeg4 i believe [09:49] <_PiLoT_> why does it dsay 4 to ten weeks [09:49] bigmack83_: click adjust size [09:49] How to make squirrelmail read from sql server? [09:49] bigmack83_: it is converting them before burning ? [09:50] bigmack83_: have a chapter for each video [09:50] ActionParsnip1: I try typing !info lxde l and its coming up with a whole bunch of stuff a reallllly long list [09:50] bigmack83_: well of course it will take more space :/ [09:50] I upgraded to 9.10 and some parts of PDFs are ilegible. [09:50] Shwack: !info is an irc command [09:50] hey ppl. :) just installed karmic :D empathy doesn't support musictracker :D [09:50] Salvad: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ [09:50] ActionParsnip1: lolllllll [09:50] can someone help? :S [09:50] ActionParsnip1, yea but thats what i dont get, i do set chapter per video, yes it converts them before burning === Assurbanipal_ is now known as Assurbanipal [09:50] !info lxde | Shwack [09:50] hi guys I need to create a VPN connection PPTP. I have installed the OpenVPN and the Cisco VPN as described here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN [09:50] hi [09:50] bruteforce: empathy lack many features that u can't imagine [09:50] Shwack: lxde (source: lxde-common): Meta-package for the Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.2.1+svn20080509-5 (jaunty), package size 2 kB, installed size 40 kB [09:50] sigh [09:50] Armageddon, i know it will take more space, but the finished dvd is only 1.5 gb [09:51] bigmack83_: well chapters and stuff put up more space, then convertion will take more space, of course it will be around 90% [09:51] so i know i can put more data on the iso [09:51] I have tried to create a new connection but the Apply button remain disabled [09:51] bigmack83_: maybe it needs reinstalling, you could also try deleting ~/.devede [09:51] why?!?! [09:51] om26er1: sad. so i install pidgin to get those features? back??? [09:51] bigmack83_: I'm lost dude ! [09:51] hey guys... many years with linux and I have not tested this...if I put in another video card after installing ubuntu...will ubunt pick up on the new card or will I have to install? [09:51] ActionParsnip1, i have tried that [09:51] what was the reason for adopting empathy before it had feature parity? [09:51] ubottu thx [09:51] Sorry, I don't know anything about thx [09:51] <_PiLoT_> ha [09:51] ubottu, thank you [09:51] You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [09:51] * Shwack . [09:52] did Shwack just thank a bot ? [09:52] <_PiLoT_> yes he did [09:52] bruteforce: me to [09:52] :/ [09:52] hehe [09:52] <_PiLoT_> yup [09:52] om26er1: sad, but thanks for your help bro :) [09:52] Armageddon actually i thought I typed the command wrong and somebody did it for me lol [09:52] bots have feelings too ): [09:52] Armageddon, he is very helpful, or is it she is very helpful === masterhumper is now known as sejo [09:52] I did the last xorg update ... I checked this thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=240957) but apt-get don't find the package "xserver-xorg-core=1:1.0.2-0ubuntu10". I guess my sources.list is bad.. [09:52] TheJosh: either way we all love ubottu [09:52] bruteforce: empathy will improve in its next major release . it what they say [09:52] <_PiLoT_> yeah i thinks the bot should have the thx command respod with your welcome [09:53] darkfig: try apt-cache search xserver-xort-core [09:53] Armageddon this is my first time using irc so plz ignore my noob [09:53] Armageddon, I gotta go, gotta restart with a new kernel (BFS!) [09:53] _PiLoT_: why should it, "thx" is not even a word. [09:53] Has anyone had problems with LVM and ubuntu 9.10? [09:53] <_PiLoT_> because gravity [09:53] Shwack: no need dude, we are just having fun ;) [09:53] <_PiLoT_> common courtisy is a must in this dy and age [09:54] Armageddon, yes but this give me the last version [09:54] And because people on IRC don't know how to spell... [09:54] is ubuntu only suitable for people unfamiliar with linux? [09:54] <_PiLoT_> taht aswell [09:54] Armageddon: hey btw can anybody here tell me if linux needs any special packages for firewalls / virus tools? [09:54] xs: no [09:54] <_PiLoT_> lol [09:54] xs: nope, suitable for people familiar with linux as well... [09:54] xs: it is suitable to everyone from noobs to advanced users [09:54] xs, negative, I switched from arch to ubuntu [09:54] Shwack, no [09:54] duncan_: probably burned a couple of VGA's and a dozen of CPUs [09:55] <_PiLoT_> so grawity, you think making the bot correct grammar would be a better way of doing stuff? [09:55] and melted the moterboard twice [09:55] * Shwack remembers windows + zone alarm + virus program and then nuts his pants [09:55] duncan_: don't you find the documentation very annoying? [09:55] Shwack: and you should remember that the computer will stop working also [09:55] Armageddon ActionParsnip1 ok. i have a 4.7 dvd and 170 mb avi files. i put them into devede and after 4 avi's it says 98% full for a 4.7 dvd. i have tried a chapter for each avi as well as 1 chapter for all avi's, and same result. even though it claims the 4.7 is full with these 4 170mb videos, after it converts them the final iso is only 1.5 gb. so i know it somehow *should* be able to but at least 12 videos per dvd. i know avi -> m [09:55] peg4 will get larger but not That much that i can only put 4 per dvd. [09:55] Armageddon blue screens of death [09:55] Shwack: what do you need with a firewall ? [09:55] Shwack, Ubuntu comes with a firewall called ufw and the graphical interface is called Gufw. As for AV, there's really no need, unless you're sharing files to and from a Windows box [09:56] xs, nah it's easy enough to filter through and I use manpages alot [09:56] Shwack: come on, the blue screen is a legacy [09:56] duncan_: ubuntu document most of their stuff in manpages? [09:56] isn't it red since XP? [09:56] anyone help with a php problem? [09:56] Armageddon: I'm setting up a subdomain on one of my .nets to point to my home IP address so I can host a ventrilo server and a Waste again network [09:56] bigmack83_: it's converting them into DVD that's why it takes space [09:56] ActionParsnip1, i tried to use adjust video and it went from 98% to 99% full [09:56] duncan_: what wm do you use? [09:56] Shwack: you need a firewall ? [09:56] xs, negative, ubuntu's documentation is in their wiki but everything upstream is in manpages, and gnome [09:56] Can i uncheck the 'AT SPI Registry Wrapper' in start-up manager? [09:56] ActionParsnip1, o/ [09:57] Shwack: try firestarter that's an easy one, and if you have windows computers you will need samba [09:57] bman: whats the problem? [09:57] Armageddon, firestarter is outdated [09:57] fpr this data $desc = "'he' - 'ho' - 'hum'"; [09:57] if (strpos($desc, '\' - \'') !== false) [09:57] mrwes: what's new ? [09:57] i expect that to pass [09:57] guys [09:57] but its not [09:57] I've been using Gufw, though firehol is very good if you want to handwrite your own firewall [09:57] duncan_: also, coming from arch, how much crap does ubuntu install? e.g., *kit, hal? can you get rid of it easily? [09:57] gufw / ufw -- Uncompitcated Firewall [09:57] Armageddon: You're forgetting I showed up to linux knowing it had a cube [09:57] oh wait [09:57] my ubuntu one doesn't work. it doesn't ask me for my username or password. :( [09:58] Hi, I'm trying to upgrade from a CD, but there is no /cdrom/cdromupgrade file to run as the autoprompt doesnt popup,... any suggestions? [09:58] Armageddon - I didnt know I was never going to log on to windows again [09:58] hey, how to delete the shortcuts that come u in places menu in the tool bar above [09:58] xs: start with a minimal ubuntu install and add only what you want [09:58] http://www.ubuntugeek.com/gufw-simple-gui-for-ufw-uncomplicated-firewall.html [09:58] Shwack: once you go linux you never go back, tell me about it:P [09:58] mrwes: ? [09:58] Armageddon, so while converting if each video would essentially need 1.15 gb or so for conversion, once that data is converted the extra is discarded. so how can i set it up so i can put 12 per disc? i will try brasero though [09:58] is keyserver.ubuntu.com down? [09:58] hey, how to delete the shortcuts that come up in places menu in the tool bar above [09:58] bigmack83_: probably [09:58] Lo all. I have jaunty running on a mac mini PPC, I attached a USB drive, it shows up in dmesg as sda. parted shows 1 partition. Fdisk -l doesn't show the disk. fdisk /dev/sda says no partition map. Is it a common problem on PPC? [09:58] PC_Nerd101: is the alternate cd ? [09:58] raevol: test it [09:58] jrib: so minimal lacks consolekit, devicekit, policykit, hal, avahi, etc? [09:58] PC_Nerd101: gksudo "sh /media/cdrom0/cdromupgrade" [09:58] firestarter is just the frontend to iptables [09:59] raevol: It was up earlier today [09:59] xs: it should, yes [09:59] seems to have just come back up [09:59] raevol: yes; use pgpkeys.mit.edu [09:59] mrwes: fine, but I didnt understand what you said instead of firestarter [09:59] !minimal | xs [09:59] xs: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [09:59] Armageddon - lol. i've been up till 4am every night having so much fun. I just took a midterm yesterday morning and couldn't study at all cuz I found integrated PGP and keyrings [09:59] xs, I use most of what ubuntu installs by default, I got annoyed with spending hours setting things up in arch, as the point of distributions is to get a good base so people don't have to spend hours or days tweaking their system to a usable level [09:59] hello [09:59] a find on the mounted CD doesnt find cdromupgrade... I'm not entirely certain if its the alternate CD... a friend burnt it for me to to save the 1GB odd upgrade size. [09:59] so ubuntu + BFS kernel doesn't work very well :( [09:59] I need to active the classic desktop on netbook remix in 9.10. anyone knows how I do fix it? [09:59] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFirewall [09:59] PC_Nerd101: becouse the desktop cd can not be used to upgrade [09:59] xs, but anything can be removed easily enough if you don't want it [09:59] apparently BFS doesnt like Xord [10:00] Shwack: haha tell me about it, Linux is the best OS ever made to humans, and I would laugh in the face of anyone that says otherwise [10:00] <_PiLoT_> actually that reminds me [10:00] * ahh - that would explain it. [10:00] duncan_: did you switch your wm? that's actually a concern for me. it seems a lot of the ubuntu "policy" stuff is tied into gnome and won't carry over to other wms. [10:00] ok, then I guess aGB upgrade it is... thanks :) [10:00] xs, just autoremove through apt-get or remove in synaptic [10:00] duncan_: ya, via debfoster. [10:00] Armageddon: I agree [10:00] hi guys.... since the upgrade to 9.10 yesterday i noticed that open office crashes each time i try to open a file created using previous versions [10:00] blizzkid, how well does Jaunty run compared to MorphOS on the MacMini? [10:01] jrib: thanks. where can i find out about its precise contents? or is it a suck it and see kind of thing? ;-) [10:01] anyone know how the iwlagn with 9.04 ? and aircrack-ng ? [10:01] Armageddon: I have WINE and open office and Gimp... the only thing i dont have is a PTT for ventrilo [10:01] xs, autoremove will remove all dependencies that aren't needed and synaptic will list orphaned packages [10:01] Shwack: I've been using Ubuntu for 9months now, and a lot of stuff do not work properly, compatibility issues with my hardware but I can't let it go, it's addictive ! [10:01] <_PiLoT_> ubuntu cliam they work with intel developing the UNR, to make the most of the atom processors. i was wondering whether the desktop additions also have the informatio included so that the desktop edition can be used on a netbook with no complaints [10:01] CammyA1600: never tried MorphOS, so don't really know. Jaunty works fine apart from some multimedia packages, but I use it as as dns/dhcp/backup server [10:01] Armageddon: SAme dude! My speakers emit a high pitched buzzing sound in 5.1 surround mode unless i turn my subwoofer up past 10% - it gives my comp personality... I love it [10:01] xs, I used gnome and kde in arch and gnome in ubuntu, so i'm not sure how the policies tie into kde or xfce [10:02] xs: I would just try it. I've never installed it, but my guess is it just installs the ubuntu-minimal package and all of its dependencies so you can check packages.ubuntu.com [10:02] duncan_: debfoster keeps track of preferences on orphaned packages and finds more than deborphan does (for example). [10:02] jrib: cheers! :) [10:02] Shame about the mm packages [10:02] <_PiLoT_> im only asking because the UNR lloks a bit too much like a mobile phone UI [10:03] xs, the minimal install cd should be similar to a slackware install (which is what arch is based on ) [10:03] CammyA1600: and now this fdisk issue, so I guess Ubuntu on the PPC is not that great, I might switch to Debian [10:03] <_PiLoT_> also theres the isue of a 1024x600 resolution [10:03] duncan_: WHAT [10:03] CammyA1600: or even some BSD [10:03] arch is NOT based on slackware [10:03] Is it a G4 or G3? [10:03] <_PiLoT_> im pretty sure the desktop edition wont like it [10:03] PC_Nerd101: you NEED the alternate CD or its not going to upgrade your system [10:03] Anybody use Waste? [10:03] arch is independent disto [10:04] duncan_, on arch you have also to configure ... it's not Slackware ;) [10:04] it was originally LFS with pacman homebrewed and it is inspired by crux [10:04] <_PiLoT_> blizzkid what type of ppc u got? [10:04] ActionParsnip1: Thanks - I've only got the standard desktop install CD ( like live boot etc).. so I'll just download... cant wait :) - thanks for your help !:) [10:04] PC_Nerd101: np man, [10:04] _PiLoT_: it's the original Mac mini [10:04] with bsd like init scripts and in addition a ports like build system, but is not based on anything [10:04] <_PiLoT_> ah ok i thought you meant pocket pc [10:04] Damn, G3 I guess [10:04] PC_Nerd101: the guide is a little off , you just need to run the command from the mount point of the cd [10:04] is there a way to write a bash file to automount all hard drives on startup ? [10:05] PC_Nerd101: the guide assumes /cdrom when it should be /media/cdrom0 [10:05] Armageddon: edit /etc/fstab no? [10:05] Armageddon: sudo mount -a [10:05] DigitalKiwi, I stand corrected, I just remembered something in the Arch wiki about it [10:05] Armageddon: mount -s will attempt to mount all drives in /etc/fstab [10:05] ActionParsnip1: that gets executed at boot time anyhow. [10:05] ActionParsnip1: ok...btw - on upgrading, it tells me that packages such as g++-4.3 are no longer supported and will be recomented to remove after upgrade.. does that mean that newer versions of these are available in 9.10 - or that they are no longer "officially" supported? [10:05] xs, ActionParsnip1 but it needs a password ! [10:05] well, partitions [10:05] <_PiLoT_> is there a limit to how many hdds the os will handle? [10:05] Armageddon: what needs a password? [10:05] duncan_: it's cool, you'll know next time it comes up now at least :) [10:06] xs: the sudo [10:06] Armageddon: not if you put it in /etc/rc.local ! [10:06] i'm getting ready to install karmic on a machine that already has grub2 installed and properly configured... will karmic get autodetected by grub or will the karmic install cd try to configure it? [10:06] hi does anyone know how to setup policies? for example to not make the frequency scaler ask every time to put the password to change frequency? there was a tool for gnome on the last version but it doesn't work on karmic anymore (even installing it shows an empty list for permissions) [10:06] Armageddon: 'sudo'? It wants _your_ _own_ password. [10:06] ActionParsnip1 Armageddon for standard dvd quality, what should be the video bit rate in kbps? devede is defaulted to 5001 kbps [10:06] Armageddon: ? if you add the disk to /etc/fstab then it will get automounted at boot. [10:06] can not be done on start up automatically ! [10:06] PC_Nerd101: not sure [10:06] DigitalKiwi, but as far as minimalism goes they are quite similar, just one is rolling release the other is time-based [10:06] bigmack83_: no idea, google it, but you can choose it [10:06] xs: oh [10:06] bigmack83_: i just use whatever devede recommends, works ok [10:06] xs: thanks [10:06] Hi. Is is possible to dist-upgrade a remote computer, through ssh ? [10:06] duncan_: does ubuntu have a rolling release like debian? === andrew_ is now known as Guest12448 [10:06] duncan_, I agree ;) [10:06] ActionParsnip1: ok [10:07] Armageddon: there is probably a nice ui for doing this in ubuntu somewhere [10:07] ok [10:07] MrEgg964, yes, with do-release-upgrade [10:07] MrEgg964, but, its still risky [10:07] hi does anyone know how to connect to a wireless AP with iwconfig? [10:07] Shwack: still tere ? [10:07] since i update my ubuntu box virtual box stop working and i don't see boxdrv loaded in lsmod [10:07] Armageddon Yep [10:07] any idea ? [10:07] Shwack: read your query [10:07] xs, closes you will get to rolling release with ubuntu is upgrading to the alphas as they are available, there is no unstable for ubuntu like debian [10:07] joaopinto: do-release-upgrade is not just for Server Edition? [10:07] <_PiLoT_> i have 5 internal hdds. will this be an issue [10:07] MrEgg964, no, it's for any edition,is the text counterpart for update-manager [10:08] duncan_: but there is no testing either? debian testing is vetted more than unstable. [10:08] _PiLoT_: no [10:08] joaopinto: thanks [10:08] man all the karmic wall papers suck. :\ [10:08] Well another reboot to try and get BFS working :) === Fishie___ is now known as Fis__ [10:08] Armageddon where is that at? [10:08] xs, correct, for ubuntu you have the current releases and the developmental release for the next version [10:08] Mowind: I got one great one if you like it, you may have it [10:08] iwconfig eth1 mode managed channel 6 key open 7177657274793132333435 essid linksys [10:08] Shwack: try to see all open windows [10:08] should be fine right? [10:08] xs, for example once the 10.04 alpha is released that is similar to debian testing [10:08] duncan_: okay. thanks. ubuntu -1. [10:08] Armageddon: Sure. [10:08] duncan_: yes they are similiar, frugalware was (and i think still is) based on slackware and uses a fork of pacman, fyi [10:09] Mowind: lemme find it for you [10:09] Does anyone here have a Creative X-Fi? If so, does your mic work? [10:10] Mowind: what I did is I made both taskbars transparent with the background, looks really good [10:10] xs, and there is also Gwenview, if you want only free software (I feel a bit lost ...) [10:10] xs, forget about it, wrong nick & window ;) [10:10] DigitalKiwi, I liked pacman for it's simplicity [10:10] Hi all. I've recently updated from 9.04 to 9.10 and I've found that my flash player is no longer responsive to clicks [10:10] ivanatwork: no worries :) [10:10] duncan_, DigitalKiwi let's keep the change for support ;) [10:10] duncan_, have you tried njam then?

[10:10] we are supporting [10:10] xs, ty [10:11] thanks Armageddon , just wanted a list of supported hardware [10:11] is this an official wiki or some 3rd party page: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Karmic [10:11] as there are always trouble with ubuntu especially on laptops with drivers [10:11] ActionParsnip1: 3rd party [10:11] xs: you really want a rolling release that isn't debian or you were just hoping that ubuntu had one? [10:11] jrib: thanks, thought so [10:11] Mowind: pvt me with your email please [10:11] coz_, the package manager not the game :P [10:11] nimrod0: your welcome [10:11] what is Gnusense? I mean, is it an Ubuntu with only free software? [10:11] nimrod0: yar, I still cant get my wifi to work on 8.10 on AAO. [10:12] ivanatwork, yes [10:12] h0ss, have you considered upgrading ? [10:12] duncan_, oh lol [10:12] xs: http://oswatershed.org/ [10:12] nimrod0: very much so. my bandwidth doesnt permit it at this time. [10:12] joaopinto, so it's currently a 9.10 ? I'm a bit lost [10:12] duncan_, i should have known :) [10:12] h0ss, what type of hardware for wifi [10:12] coz_, :) [10:12] ivanatwork, I don't use gnewsense [10:12] ubuntu is usually way far down but they had a release...so it's up temporarily [10:13] h0ss, request some free cd [10:13] joaopinto, nor do I ;) just curious about new distros [10:13] there was a way to do that [10:13] nimrod0: the wifi nic is an atheros AR5007EG [10:13] btw, 9.10 has an horible brown by default ... lol I know ... [10:13] Hi, what the the most "official" deb repository of OOo 3.1 for Hardy LTS? [10:13] I've written a lang file for gedit, how to install it? [10:14] h0ss, atheros should be fully supported [10:14] nimrod0: I will just wait until march to get a steady cat5 connection. [10:14] DigitalKiwi, I don't put much stock in having the newest version of everything :) [10:14] ivanatwork: don't they all have horrible brown/orange by default? [10:14] nimrod0: and I am stuck with windblows :( [10:14] DigitalKiwi: i was hoping ubuntu had one. thanks for the link :) === FoggyZzzzz is now known as Foggy [10:14] Anyone get my issue? [10:14] DigitalKiwi, 8.10 wasn't that bad [10:14] nimrod0: not with 8.10 it isnt supported. [10:14] ivanatwork, I prefer 9.10s horrible brown to 9.04s "{ [10:14] DigitalKiwi: !! i was looking for this link for ages! thank you so much :) [10:14] h0ss, that sucks really , these hardware manufacturers need a kick [10:14] I've written a lang file for gedit, how to install it? [10:14] duncan_: that's not the only thing the distros that have up to date software have going for them over others that don't [10:14] DigitalKiwi: i came across it months ago then forgot it! [10:15] xs: yw [10:15] does anybody know of a mail macro to sniff an incoming email parse a filename out of the list and attach it and respond [10:15] DigitalKiwi, oh I know, I'm just commenting on the link :) === _PiLoT_ is now known as PiLoT-AFK [10:15] people, I dislike brow/orange theme as well, but there are other themes to choose from now... [10:15] niimrod0: tell me about it. [10:15] for example, how long would it take to update a 12 month old install of ubuntu to the newest release? [10:15] I'm having a problem with my upgrade to karmic. i keep getting this error: http://pastebin.com/d52770cfa [10:15] Armageddon you in here? [10:15] If you want to customize the looks, goto gnome-look or kde-look [10:15] and what are the chances of it surviving ;D [10:16] DigitalKiwi should work [10:16] DigitalKiwi, I save myself the trouble and backup my home directory to my NFS and clean install [10:16] h0ss, please email the manufacturers and ask them to release drivers, the more of us that do that the better chance we have of making these people release drivers, because otherwise they know they'll lose money === PacketCollision is now known as PC|Away [10:16] reinstalling is for windows users =D [10:16] DigitalKiwi, and my laptop survived 9.04 to 9.10 fine, actually worked better after [10:16] that's only 6 months === tapas_ is now known as tapas [10:16] Does anyone here have a Creative X-Fi? If so, does your mic work? [10:17] my server hoster only gives very old releases per efault aswell i have to go over 4 releases [10:17] if I understand right you can't do a years update in one go? [10:17] h0ss, we need to put the pressure on these guys, after all we pay for the hardware [10:17] DigitalKiwi, yeah, you are supposed to take it in 6 month gaps [10:17] DigitalKiwi, or 2 year gaps (LTS to LTS) [10:17] No go step by step === basti2 is now known as basti [10:17] nimrod0: from what I understand later releases of Ubuntu work fine with this hardware. [10:17] nimrod0: also there are some packages that might makeit work [10:17] DigitalKiwi, once 10.04 comes out i'll probably stick with it updating the few packages I need newer version of until 12.04 [10:17] h0ss: easier is to buy hardware from manufacturers whom support Linux [10:17] anyone? http://pastebin.com/d52770cfa [10:17] even if they do still put the pressure on the manufaccturers [10:17] !sound | Snares [10:18] Snares: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[10:25] sandhya, ah, hmm, have you tried using the standard iso, inserting it into the cd drive should pop up the option to update via synaptic [10:25] slawek: shouldnt do, it will only upgrade the apps [10:25] Shikaku: For Wubi ? [10:26] slawek: sorry, wrong target [10:26] slawe: use the windows driver with ndiswrapper [10:26] yos: shouldnt do, it will only upgrade the apps [10:26] Yos, it should be an upgrade but if I were you I would back up my conf files ;) [10:26] Name141: I don't see why not, it's installed to a file that's mounted for Ubuntu.

[10:29] sandhya, aye the standard iso will do an upgrade off the cd as well just through synaptic (sorry if I didn't make that clear) as opposed to going through the non-x installer (forget what it is called) [10:30] never mind* [10:30] zilt0id: use pgp.mit.edu instead === Bodsda_ is now known as Bodsda === novice is now known as makf [10:30] Can anyone help with udev?

[10:36] ActionParsnip1: i just created the profiles a few minutes ago [10:36] dj_, try gksudo instead [10:36] dj_: I mean, if you can do it with sudo, then you can do it without sudo, but I don't know how you actually do it using rar. Alternatively, consider using the "split" command [10:36] SIRprise: worth a try [10:37] ewer it shows command line === Wikidude is now known as Blizzerand [10:37] ActionParsnip1: ok,thx [10:37] dj, because you are using command line [10:37] Can anyone help with udev?

Key strokes work, but no clicks register [10:43] dj_ or you may start nautilus with gksudo [10:43] whats the latest LTS release? [10:43] 8.04? [10:44] damo22: yes [10:44] so how does one dump the actual current configuration of the running x server? i noticed there just even is no xorg.conf at all anymore and i would love to adjust the resolution, which completely fails with the graphical frontend...

[10:44] micronaut: you could make a tarball of ~/.config/transmission and your torrents directory [10:44] jrib: what was your question [10:44] ewer, try: gksudo nautilus [10:44] dj_: you should not need root privileges if the file is on your desktop. What are the permissions on the file? [10:44] question tried to install xubunto 9.10 am using xubuntu 9.4 got as far as 3of6 clicked the right box then clicked forward it jumped from 3of6 to 4of 7, no partition mansger not only the it wiped the partion manager from the installed 9.4 .just had to reinstall 9.4 to get it back anyone tell me why [10:44] jrib: read write [10:44] solsTiCe: ok. i'll take at look at that. thanks [10:45] damn, this whole new HAL stuff is just the greatest PITA i've experienced within the last 15 years of configuring X, including dual head setups and sparcstations running BSD's. [10:45] micronaut: with sparse file support to be safe [10:45] dj_: those aren't permissions. What does: ls -l /path/to/file return? [10:45] Tesssa: did you install from a CD? [10:45] how do i find out which ubuntu version i am running over ssh? [10:45] damo22: lsb_release -c [10:45] !version | damo22 [10:45] Is there a good IDE for editing PHP that's not KDevelop? [10:45] damo22: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [10:45] !ide | Reliant [10:45] Reliant: Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, pida, monodevelop, geany - Others: eclipse, netbeans, QtCreator [10:45] hey there, I just did a 9.10 install, but Ubiquity crashed before installing the bootloader [10:45] :'(, time to try hackintosh...... [10:46] what command should I run from the live CD to manually install it? [10:46] !grub2 | MrWGW [10:46] MrWGW: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [10:46] right but that doesn't help me [10:46] Can anyone help with udev? HID keyboard not working in 9.10, was working in 9.04. Trued to copy 5-udev-default and 60-persistent-input from 9.04 to /etc/udev/rules.d/, that didn't help. Touchpad, embedded in the keyboard, still works, any ideas to debug? How can i find out what devices are added to the system? [10:46] all I'm asking is what command do I run to clean up Ubiquity's failure ot install it? [10:46] Tesssa: did you mD5 test the ISO you downloaded? Did you run the CD verifier? [10:47] MrWGW: you need to use the live CD to install grub2 to the disk [10:47] anyone know which would be better for an aspire one? ubuntu netbook remix or ubuntu moblin remix? [10:47] ewer:gksudo nautilus [10:47] Nautilus-Share-Message: Called "net usershare info" but it failed: "net usershare" returnerade fel 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares.

[10:47] dj_, I wouldnt use nautilus as root, you can change the file permitions and then use "regular" nautilus [10:47] md5sum test should not be needed if downloaded with torrent [10:48] ActionParsnip1: right [10:48] solsTiCe: its good to test though, takes a minute and helps garuntee data integrity [10:48] ewer: i have file permission read write: [10:48] so what command do I run on the live CD to install GRUB 2? [10:48] diddnt think i needed to ActionParsnip as it was from a official download site [10:48] ActionParsnip1: the bittorrent client should do that [10:48] Tesssa: sure you do, you downloaded a massive block of data of a packet switched network [10:49] dj_: why would you think you need to run file roller as root. It's writing to your Desktop. You shouldn't just try to run things as root because it doesn't work otherwise... [10:49] Tesssa: MD5 doesnt check its an official image, it makes sure it hasnt become garbaged in transit [10:49] jrib: it worked now [10:49] well as i am newish to ubuntu it doesnt tell me to do that [10:49] solsTiCe: it should but its still good to check as single bit errors can cause havok [10:49] dj_, if you do, why would the system ask you to become root? are you trying to add a file to a read only external usb or something? [10:49] !md5 | Tesssa [10:49] Tesssa: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [10:50] can someone look at my thread on the forum? [10:50] any one know . what's the default sound server alsa or pulseaudio? [10:50] dj_: of course it worked. But like I said, you should not just go around running things as root because it doesn't work otherwise. That's a great way to break your system. [10:50] solsTiCe: technically it shouldnt happen with FTP as TCP should error check the data as its transmitted but THATstill fails [10:50] its supposed to be a new os [10:50] MrWGW: the guide will tell you how [10:50] gah [10:50] hey guys...when will #ubuntu+1 be online? [10:51] MrWGW: http://ubuntuguide.net/how-to-restore-grub-2-after-reinstalling-windows-xpvistawin7 [10:51] didnt need to do that when i did the same installing 9.4 and thet worked perfect [10:51] im running a dual monitor setup. the desktop cube looks just stupid at two monitors, is it possible to make it visible on only one screen? [10:51] Tesssa: maybe you got lucky, its good to test [10:51] Tesssa: there is also a checker on the CD to test the burned cD is error free too [10:51] never understimate the power off root [10:52] well tell me how to test and i will [10:52] ActionParsnip1: yes but bittorrent has a sha1sum of every chunk so there already a check integrity there. and even sometimes a hash check for finished torrent [10:52] !md5 | Tesssa [10:52] Tesssa: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [10:53] jrib: no this was what i was trying to do: i had a large file i wanted to rar it, i was right clickin on it, add archive then i saw option tar.gz on the left i saw options but i could not choose options to split it, now i see how rar works, i had to choose first what type of file i want to save as .rar or tgz then to split it on volume that i want then enter root password [10:53] solsTiCe: yes but TCP has CRC and parity checks on each packet as they travel but that can still fail, thats why MD5 exists, no method is 100% fool proof [10:53] can someone tell me how to change my window manager via command line? [10:53] hm, I'm using synergyc and I just lost connection on my linux system. I'm on windows now. Is there anyway to start synergyc 192.168.0.4 and make it happen in X? So it can reconnect? Thanks [10:53] kwyjibo: --replace [10:53] or better still go back to win7 [10:53] kwyjibo: e.g. metacity --replace [10:53] dj_: you shoudln't have to enter any root password [10:53] kwyjibo, what exactly do you want to change?

Why would your user not be able to do that? [10:54] Helllo [10:54] Hey, guys. [10:54] so run the install disc for 9.10 and then find and use !md5 [10:54] Some new bugs founded? :) [10:54] gypsymauro: if you look in ~/.config/menus/applications-merged you will see the wine menu items, you can simply delete those [10:55] who know how to install nvidia drivers in to ubuntu ?

I think it's the usplash that's causing this. [11:17] c3l_ Use Xine or amarok [11:17] Empathy is neat... :D [11:18] lianimator: maybe but checking te ISO and CD *BEFORE* install is good [11:18] bye [11:18] duncan_ Kinda strange [11:18] :( [11:18] Anyone know why my I get fps lag when I play a simple game like teeworlds since I upgraded from 9.04 (no framelag there) to 9.10?

[11:24] ActionParsnip1, I was? [11:24] what? [11:24] amikrop: It is converted to wav [11:24] Or the burn will fail altogether? [11:24] fjafjan: ok cool, that is a Gutsy CD [11:25] Does anyone know when ubuntu one is going to be upgraded to a working version? [11:25] amikrop: If it gets cut off at 80min [11:25] fjafjan: gutsy is dead [11:25] Is there anywhere I can get basic gutsu repos? [11:25] is there some global music volume controller in ubuntu? the sound volume is much lower than what I have in windows! [11:25] fjafjan: upgrade to hardy [11:25] Should be an archive somewhere no? [11:25] amikrop: Make sure you use a data cd format [11:25] Yeah except that is a huge problem [11:25] amikrop: And it wont get cut off [11:25] fjafjan: possibly but i very much doubt it [11:25] fjafjan: oldreleases.ubuntu.com?

[11:25] thank you grawity [11:25] fjafjan: you want at least hardy [11:25] nathan7: will it get automatically cut at 80min (by Brasero, or Gnomebaker, or...)? [11:25] is there any documentation to remove PulseAudio? Several apps use over 200% CPU time when using pulse [11:25] amikrop: Depends [11:25] Basically I can not burn CDs as I cannot access any working OS [11:25] nathan7: I want to create an audio CD, not a data CD [11:26] And it seems this live CD does not have a burner built in [11:26] (to play it at old CD players) [11:26] Can someone please help me with my headphone jack not working under ubuntu? [11:26] amikrop: Then it gets cut off [11:26] How can i start the "System > Preferences > Sound" From terminal, it seems like it is not there wehen I look for it [11:26] I have actually removed the packages, and the gstreamer plugin. now, the only thing left is allowing Gnome's sound preferences to control alsa [11:26] nathan7: so, will the burn be succesful but cut, or fail altogether? [11:26] Excuse me, would anyone know how to solve my GRUB problem? [11:26] fjafjan: latest release is karmic but jaunty is still pretty good and has 12 months support left in it [11:26] Can someone please help me with my headphone jack not working under ubuntu? [11:26] nathan7: oh, so it will be successful but cut [11:26] that's ok [11:26] Look I know there are more recent releases, the problem is I can not install them [11:26] amikrop: you will need to edit the source mp3 [11:26] Where is the Ubuntu Keyserver? I need it up >_< [11:26] I mean, I will be able to play the CD and listen normally until 80min [11:26] amikrop: I guess brasero will ask to cut it off [11:27] Pachad93, probably you didn't raise the volume. [11:27] Pachad93: what you men not working? did you check under sound preferences [11:27] Hi guys how can I connect with my server using the VPN? I have all the parameters but when I try to use the network-manager under gnome it refuse the connection. My parameters are pptp server ip, userid, password and Ip Drac Card, Netmask, Gateway. Does anybody here help me to configure this VPN connection? [11:27] amikrop: Yeah [11:27] Oli``: If you want to download a key, try pool.sks-keyservers.net instead. [11:27] Pachad93, or the switch for the head phone. [11:27] ActionParsnip1: manually? won't my burner do that itself? [11:27] Pachad93: see sound preferences>input > [11:27] nathan7: ok, thank you :) [11:27] fjafjan: gutsy isnt supported now the official repos don't have gutsy packages on so you will only have the install CD for packages [11:28] partyhangover, I see internal audio analog stereo [11:28] amikrop: its not the burners job. The burners job is to make sure the data does not overflow the disk, then to put the data on the disk once everything is ok [11:28] fasta, switch for headphone? [11:28] Pachad93: ya there aer many tabs in preferences like hardware, input etc [11:28] * nathan7 is happy now [11:28] partyhangover, right. [11:28] Pachad93: check input and select some other mic like mic 2 or line in [11:29] is there some global music volume controller in ubuntu? the sound volume is much lower than what I have in windows! [11:29] Pachad93: also which application are you using to test microphone , use sound recorder [11:29] I can't. Under input, there's only one device AND this isn't a mic issue it's a headphone issue [11:29] My ubuntu one doesn't work. Googling says I should perform a post-installation upgrade of ubuntu one, but there's no upgrade available yet? [11:29] Pachad93: sorry [11:30] Pachad93: headphone problem then? [11:30] Sarge_TJ: tried reinstalling the client?

You can make one by running: sudo nvidia-xconfig [11:41] xenon_karmic, if the hardware supports x64 it is prefered to run x64. the system will be backward compatible for apps that are only x32 (x86). but most apps are built for both 32 and 64 these days. (i've been running x64 ststems on my desktop and server for a long time, never had problems with apps etc) [11:41] I give up. Linux isn't for me. I am literally going to shut this thing down and buy Windows 7 Ultimate tomorrow. [11:41] Thanks for -trying- to help me. [11:41] indus, there's no such file [11:42] Can i have 4 desktops on compiz? while Horisontal virtual size is 4 on Desktop panel size of compizconfig/general options, and i see-use 4 virtual desktops, i cant work with them with devilspie (probably need 4true desktops, and not 4 virtual) [11:42] Pachad93: oh wait will you [11:42] I'm tired of this crap. The sound at least should work out of the boxc [11:42] Pachad93: try a different distro [11:42] indus: in tvtime can i play dvb-t? [11:42] indus: because analog is not working.. [11:42] janhaj: ok sorry whats dvb-t [11:42] Pachad93: there is a WHOLE lot more to linux than just ubuntu [11:42] ActionParsnip1, that was my last cd-r and my last grain of patience [11:42] !sound [11:42] If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[11:42] Pachad93: your call. there is a lot better than ubuntu [11:42] !sound | Pachad93 [11:42] Pachad93: please see above [11:42] in karmic, how do I enable the NFS statd? [11:43] im using compiz on Gnome , ubuntu 9.10 with Nvidia drivers installed [11:43] indus: what is dvb-t? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVB-T [11:43] Pachad93: suse, fedora, mandriva, debian, pcbsd [11:43] But from those ubuntu is best i think [11:43] Pachad93, oh no, you just cant. whats wrong with ubuntu, its super easy and works perfectly [11:43] is anyone else having this problem? after upgrading to karmic my speakers keep popping, even on mute [11:43] ActionParsnip1, Fedora and Debian - between the two? [11:43] Hello everyone [11:43] BoredKender, yes, i have it too [11:44] c3l_, apparently it's not super easy [11:44] Pachad93: i'd shoot for fedora, debian is too close to the ubuntu you are disliking [11:44] zyxxy, laptop? [11:44] That worked, thankyou! [11:44] BoredKender, no [11:44] Pachad93: stay away from RPM-based distro's afaic [11:44] janhaj: ok i dont know all that but if you tv comes from a coaxial cable i too have the same, its analog transmission [11:44] jezlee: sweet [11:44] blizzkid, RPM is fedora [11:44] the pop is just there wenn an application plays sound after the sound system has been completely idle [11:44] Pachad93, what is failing? [11:44] Pachad93: Fedora is RPM-based yes [11:44] i'm having a problem booting ubuntu...anyone could please help me? [11:44] e.g. the first time some application appears in the sound settings panel [11:44] c3l_, headphone jack [11:44] guys, my ubuntu that i ust innstaled , grub is missing menu.lst i have a vista partition. can someone help me out [11:44] blizzkid, what's wrong with it? [11:44] Pachad93: rpm is fine, its just a different packaging method, suse uses rpm and is pretty groovy [11:44] when i play a silent mp3 in the background, the pop isn't there [11:45] Pachad93: rpm's dependancy handling is inferior to deb's [11:45] Tex_Willer just write your issue if someone knows a solotion they will post :) [11:45] Pachad93: explore linux, ubuntu is just an easy starting block [11:45] Pachad93, ohh, sounds like the hardware is a bit strange, those kinds of stuff has always worked for me in any linux dists [11:45] indus: yes, from coaxial cable, but for analog and fm radio linux does not have codec.. [11:45] blizzkid: i'd argue differently as would the many red hat certified engineers [11:45] why the fuccccck wont my wifi usb work in ubuntu [11:46] janhaj: says who [11:46] ActionParsnip1: obviously RHCE wouldn't say RH sucks... duhu [11:46] indus: i read it on the internet..

It pops up not where it's supposed to but in a middle of a screen [11:47] janhaj: i have a pinnacle tvtuner card with fm radio [11:47] indus: yes.. but for my tv tuner probably isn't codec.. i have gigabyte..

[11:51] so yeah. firefox sucks [11:51] It has to replace libnotify or whatever it was... right? [11:51] indus: Currently only DVB-T digital TV/HDTV is working because there is no driver written for the CX25843-24Z audio/video decoder which is probably used for the analogue TV/FM radio portion of the device. [11:51] blizzkid: urpmi resolves deps [11:51] janhaj: but wait, first try with tvtime, i dont think you need drivers for this [11:51] kate__: Use Opera then... [11:51] glad im talking to myself [11:51] sudo lshw -C network | grep product' [11:51] what will that do [11:51] janhaj: ya and? do you want radio? [11:52] ActionParsnip1: but urpmi is not the default, right? [11:52] indus: analog tv and radio is not working in linux, with this tuner.. [11:52] janhaj: aah ok you need analog [11:52] janhaj: oh iam so sorry [11:52] I am doing a reinstallation..How do i back up my thunderbird profile???

[11:53] VirtualBox OSE doesnt support usb. how do I get a virtual system that allows usb connections? [11:53] Surfydudez: it wont fix it, it will tell you what it is so you can find guides [11:53] janhaj: yours is analog i believe [11:53] ActionParsnip1: not because of the urpmi, but I had bad experiences in the past with Suse (although that was looooooong ago) [11:53] :/ [11:53] ActionParsnip1: Will that make it work [11:54] #ubuntu+1 is redirected to #ubuntu.. [11:54] anybody knows how to back up and restore your thunderbird data?? [11:54] blizzkid: its probably better now due to time, ubuntu has come a long way too, so has suse [11:54] Surfydudez: once you find a good guide, yes [11:54] is it possible to use the live cd to help you upgrade from jaunty to karmic, as my internet connection is really slow so I don't want to download as much. [11:54] indus: analog does not work anywhere in linux.. in jaunty i play only dvb-t which you don't know.. [11:55] ActionParsnip1: sure, but you know how it goes... ubuntu never let me down, has always just worked for me, while suse at that time was a mess [11:55] natschil: no, you must use the alternative [11:55] janhaj: iam using analog buddy [11:55] good guide?

[11:55] slacker_nl: I thought it's ~/.thunderbird [11:55] ok [11:55] blizzkid: maybe for you but for others they prefer it [11:55] grawity: not on my box [11:55] ActionParsnip1: no workaround? [11:56] * natschil starts downloading the alternative [11:56] how do I sync a jailbroken iphone 3gs in linux?

[11:56] natschil: to what? [11:56] slacker_nl: and will extracting it on the new system restore it?? [11:56] janhaj: test what [11:56] ActionParsnip1: yes, ofcourse, anyway, my point was you said rpm is not inferior because ao RHCE disagree... Well.. the majority can be wrong... (cfr Betamax/VHS) [11:56] ActionParsnip1: to use things on the live cd for an upgrade [11:56] good morning peeps [11:57] isn't Koala AWESOME!!! [11:57] hi [11:58] natschil: there is but its not advised, yu can run therough the installer, use custom partitoning then thell the installer not to format the system, then the files will be updated but it can possibly REALLY screw your system so I DO NOT ADVISE THIS. I only read this was possible but have never tried it [11:58] indus: frames too short from uvcvideo... i try install, what i saw in internet, but no answer [11:58] damn no, it still pops up at wrong place [11:58] blizzkid: rpm is just different, its not inferior [11:58] my grub has no menu.lst what do i do ??? anyone ? [11:58] janhaj: you are using wrong device, [11:58] * blizzkid thinks Ubuntu certification being based on LPIC is totally ridiculous... why learn about RPM for UBUNTU certification??? [11:58] ActionParsnip1: I don't think I'll risk it. [11:58] janhaj: i had that message cos it was reading from webcam on video0 [11:58] ActionParsnip1, there is nothing wrong with using that option, install without formatting [11:59] janhaj: try tvtime --device /dev/video1 [11:59] joaopinto: i just don't like it and only read it somewhere so I am making myself clear :) [11:59] ActionParsnip1: we agree to disagree... for me RPM is inferior to deb just like ntfs is inferior to ext [11:59] hello, i am using ubuntu 9.10 and i have an nvidia geforce 8600gt with dual monitors but the one on the left seems to be the default display, how do i change it so the right side one is?

[11:59] anyone able to advise me on reverse dns.... Other than more reliable acceptance of email relay, what benefits does it offer? and when setting reverse dns for an ip, do i just enter the domain (eg sitedomain.com) or do i enter the hostname? (www.sitedomain.com) [12:00] wizztjh_: tried apt-get install --reinstall? [12:00] wizztjh_: --reinstall install it, then uninstall it [12:00] trying!

How do i find what kernels i have? and how do i get rid of ones i don't need? [12:01] janhaj: hmm true but according to links , not all hardware is loaded, i dont see tuner info [12:01] janhaj: can i see dmesg output [12:01] janhaj: it will say clearly, and if it loads everything, tvtime should tune it [12:01] theadmin: dpkg -l | grep linux-image [12:01] NET||abuse: Is "www" the real hostname?

[12:03] NET||abuse: Then use sitedomain.com [12:03] indus: http://paste.ubuntu.com/304981/ [12:03] http://paste.ubuntu.com/304980/ [12:03] Here is what i have. [12:03] grawity, i'm dedicating that ip (one of the 7 on my server) to their site for the express purpose of they need ssl. so just looking into what the reverse dns is useful for. any other advantages to using it so? [12:03] theadmin: you only have 1 surplus kernel [12:04] janhaj: i dont see the tuner being recognised [12:04] blizzkid: ActionParsnipl: i try both and it works [12:04] ooh, update day?

[12:05] NET||abuse: I don't know any other advantages... I perosnally just like rDNS to be correct and pretty. [12:05] most require reverse dns to match forward and helo [12:05] ActionParsnip1: Yes, i want to get rid of it. How? [12:05] grawity, yeh, what if you host 3 domains on the one ip for email? it's kind hard then no? [12:05] indus: in 8.04 i don!t know, but in jaunty works digital fine [12:05] janhaj: ok and now you are on 9.10? [12:06] We have someone in our channel that speaks indonesian? is there an ubuntu indonesian channel?

I am using Ubuntu KK now. However, the gdm start up before I can enter the password to unlock my encrypted partition. Any idea about this issue? [12:06] NET||abuse: One more reason though - if, for example, I do 'netstat -e' to check active connections, and your server has working rDNS, then I immediately can see that this connection is to your servers. (maybe it's a simple HTTP connection, maybe something malicious, maybe...) [12:06] theadmin: will then leave you with only linux-image-2.6.31-14-generic [12:06] on 9.10 with grub2, which file do i need to edit to remove "quiet splash" from /boot/grub/grub.cfg, seems that grub.cfg is read only [12:06] is it natural for videos in flash to get laggier and laggier after about 5 seconds of playback? [12:06] or should I say, I want it to wait me unlock the partition first before the gdm is start. [12:07] any idea about this? :s [12:07] patdk-lap, i'm not sure I get what you mean,,, so our office has a static ip, i can ask our isp to set reverse dns,, we have 3 email domains we use for 3 sub businesses we run..

I am trying now. will be back in a moment [12:16] one sec pastbin is struggling to load === i is now known as Guest57640 [12:16] Hello. In Karmic, the fast-user-switch-applet was removed. What replaced it? There is nothing on the panels to log me out, switch to a guest user session, etc [12:17] Mike_lifeguard: I think it's been replaced by the Indicator Applet [12:17] Mike_lifeguard: It's all there for me. You just choose logout, and the dialogue includes switcvh user. [12:17] Mike_lifeguard, in the upper right corner is a power button it has that ? [12:17] unless your panel config is messed up then you should reset it [12:17] SurfyDudee: could use: http://www.pastie.org [12:17] join #c++ [12:17] on my Karmic system, that serves the purpose of a) setting my IM status via Pidgin or Empathy and b) giving me a shut down/restart/standby menu [12:17] G_A_C: Thanks, that's correct. [12:17] join #c++ [12:18] G_A_C: would benice if that got added automatically on upgrade :) [12:18] Hey guys [12:18] hi! when i start ubuntu ( the 9.10 ) i am strapped in the start screen do u know how to get rid of that problem? [12:18] ? how do i get outta here and join the #c++ chatroom? [12:18] its done at http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ [12:18] Can someone tell me how to see a notification when I receive a new message in empathy?? [12:18] Brianetta: The indicator applet session doesn't get added on upgrade, apparently [12:18] Mike_lifeguard: I think mine did during the beta (IIRC), I'm surprised it doesn't in the final [12:18] th1: I had to add it manually [12:18] VirusTB: you need to use "/join #c++" without the quotes [12:18] SurfyDudee: not quite, i need the link after you clicked paste [12:18] Mike_lifeguard: I didn't use it anyway. If there's no applet, the "System" menu takes teh job on. [12:18] I have had to turn of acpi to get my ubuntu to stop freezing, but thats killed my wifi, can anyone think of a way round that? [12:18] G_A_C: mmmmmm, tastes buggy :P [12:19] thanks DJones [12:19] hi! when i start ubuntu ( the 9.10 ) i am strapped in the start screen do u know how to get rid of that problem? [12:19] http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m1295031e [12:19] Guest57640: ctrl+alt+f1 and try to determine the error [12:19] Mike_lifeguard: I could be wrong, it's a few weeks since I upgraded to the beta, and when I use beta software I don't tend to take a lot of notice of things like that (ie manual changes), just assume they'll be made automatically on release. I just keep my eyes open for actual bugs, and since indicator-applet does what it says on the tin.... :) [12:19] SurfyDudee: better :) [12:20] thanks [12:20] SurfyDudee: can you pastebin the output of: sudo lshw -C network [12:20] Boohbah:i will try it.

[14:00] ive installed kubuntu karmic recently. i forgot to save my grub2-files and after installting, kubuntu does not want to boot. in a chroot i cannot do update-grub2 oder grub-install because my partitions werent found correctly [14:00] ive done a "sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg" before [14:00] is anyone going to help me? :( [14:00] cwill747, i tried but didn't know which app to add [14:00] Psinetic, patience please [14:00] MK13: yeah, i was just looking at it too [14:00] hi I am using ubuntu 9.10 installed with wubi (dual boot with windows xp ) now when I chose ubuntu in dual boot it came up gnu grub? [14:00] bazhang: ok, thank you [14:01] if I add something similar to fstab "///path/to/share /home//folder cifs auto 0 0" it gets mounted as root? [14:01] cwill747, i think it is the notification one... but everything else shows (battery/sound) [14:01] jonte, grub is what boots linux. [14:01] I can not upgrade to 9.10 , it shows no connection to internet [14:01] cwill747, i just have a blank spot where the network one goes [14:01] but i connect already [14:01] hello friends. I am planning on installing Ubuntu this weekend, I have a long fbsd experience so i guess I won't face serious issues, but I'd like to know if there's someone that has installed it on a TOSHIBA SATELLITE A300 (I am not sure about the short model) [14:01] IHS_Volunteer: heheh what shall I do when it came up? [14:02] anyone aircrack-ng? [14:02] how can i refresh desktop icons dissapeared [14:02] it worked cwill747...thanks again! [14:02] jonte, let it do its thing until Ubuntu boots, unless it gives an error. [14:02] syberhunter: no problem [14:02] downloaded alternate CD .. thought I'll upgrade but now I want to do a clean reinstall. Never used anything other than LiveCD . Looking for a webpage with screenshots or steps for a alternate CD ubuntu installation [14:02] mr-dedup: doesn't seem to be one on freenode... [14:02] just looking for some help on good troubleshooting docs, I understand what I am supposed to be doing, but the tools are not working....a channel would be GREAT! thanks [14:02] IHS_Volunteer: it dosen't do anything [14:02] mr-dedup: try looking on oftc [14:02] blackxored: yeah i see it enabled within startup applications, and i see it turned on within gnome-do itself, however i have to manually start it then it works. On login its not. [14:02] MK13: try adding the notification bar again [14:03] mattgyver, weird [14:03] <_scribeb0> hey, im looking for a program that can batch convert a ton of wmv's to xvid /divx avi's any suggestions? [14:03] hi guys...I've recently upgraded to Karmic (9.10) and I've suddently realised that Synaptic is broken? Is this a known issue? [14:03] nanotube: thanks! I will [14:03] :( [14:03] Has anybody installed karmic with multiple hard drives installed in their computer yet???? [14:03] blackxored: yea i know not sure why its like that. [14:03] hi,everybody! [14:03] mikebeecham : What laptop [14:03] mikebeecham: what is the output of: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade [14:03] Hi, I have the problem that Ubutnu One does not connect, any idea why? [14:03] blackxored: it worked in 9.04, i just upgraded to 9.10 and thats the only issue. [14:03] exists a programm to convert a youtube video to mp3 for ubuntu ? [14:03] jonte, strange. Grub often has a wait time, then boots the OS. ubuntu usually has a very small wait time. Wubi might make some changes... I don't dual boot in any way, so I'm not sure what'd happen [14:03] bazhang: are you working on my problem or did you mean patience as far as just waiting for someone else to? [14:03] mikebeecham: use http://pastebin.com [14:03] can i install moblin 2.0 on top of karmic? [14:04] on karmik: "ping cname" -> "unknown host" But "host cname" -> correctly solves the address. thanks [14:04] how can i make a bootdisk with my flash disk? [14:04] fbn, i think it's down right now (hear web interface IS working) [14:04] how can i refresh desktop icons dissapeared [14:04] how to install Ubuntu using Alternate CD. Any tutorial or screenshots? [14:04] hit an iso to usb flash key? [14:04] cwill747, it just added a blank one [14:04] mattgyver, I got similar issues with awn in karmic beta, what I did at that time was to disable them both on gnome-session-properties and in the app interface, then log out and in enabling and log out and in again, try that :P [14:04] hit, you can make a bootdisk with an ubuntu live cd, it has the program for that [14:04] hit: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-ubuntu-904-persistent-install-windows/ [14:04] no [14:04] hit, let me find you the name of the software, maybe you can install it [14:04] hit: got to System -> Administration ->USB creator [14:04] ubuntistas, open terminal type xkill click on "start menu" will restart nautilus which draws desktop icons [14:05] blackxored: it sounds so simple, it just might work! [14:05] MK13: i'm looking around [14:05] IHS_Volunteer: i have install ubuntu before in same computer and it worked fine [14:05] i want to create my own [14:05] hit "USB Startup Disk Creator" [14:05] ActionParsnip1: http://pastebin.ca/1649265 [14:05] I have two normal users on my system: pgp and pgp2. My login screen only displays pgp2, and not pgp. [I login using "Other..."] I suspect this is because pgp is user number 652 and pgp2 is number 1001, but I'm not sure. How can I fix it so that pgp is also listed at the login screen? [14:05] ActionParsnip1: the pastebin you gave me kept tripping out..I used another [14:05] mikebeecham : What laptop . [14:05] hit, try unetbootin and remastersys [14:05] MK13: look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=423543 [14:06] dreambox: no laptop P4 PC [14:06] ZykoticK9, ah thanks I already thought so. Just too bad that there is no information to the user [14:06] thx [14:06] Has anybody installed karmic with multiple hard drives installed in their computer yet???? [14:06] jonte, I don't know what to tell you, then. I might grab a windows box and try wubi later, but right now, I can't really help, no experience with that particular setup. [14:06] mikebeecham: ok can you run: sudo dpkg --configure -a sudo apt-get -f install if you get any error outputs please use pastebin [14:06] jayce: yes. [14:06] if someone is working on my problem please let me know so that I will know there's someone working on it :( [14:06] IHS_Volunteer: okay :( [14:06] fakeer, I just installed fresh with the alternate, what questions/issues did you have [14:06] cwill747 - did you have any issues? Im having a helluva headache with karmic an dmultiple drives.... [14:07] ActionParsnip1: thanks man...seems to be good now :D [14:07] Has anybody had any success installing the nVidia 190. driver for a Quadro NVS 280 SD? [14:07] jayce: they pretty much all worked for me, but all my other drives are NTFS. So i've been using NTFS-3g. what's your problem? [14:07] mikebeecham: cool [14:07] blackxored: this is what i get for not wanting to do a clean install ;) [14:07] bazhang: thanks..u r here too :P ..... i couldn't find the graphic interface i used to find earlier with LiveCD... [14:08] bazhang: so scared I quit..and began searchign for tutorials :( [14:08] mattgyver, my karmic is through upgrades as well, I'll probably do a clean-install but only for x86_64 migration, it's working fine [14:08] I am looking for support for installing karmic 64-bit on a hard drive with multiple Os. Is this the correct place to ask? === dkalaluhi is now known as DMK [14:08] cwill747 - I have 4 drives in my system. 1 main, 1 backup (for me) and 2 samba drives. the other 3 drives are mounted by fstab, I always take care of that. [14:08] fakeer, right, it is ncurses based, you need to use the tab key to get through the various choices, along with the arrow keys [14:08] Hey is there anything for grub that can load usb sticks? Because i have a bootable ubuntu usb stick here but my bios will not boot usb for some unknown reason [14:08] sorry, stepped away from the keyboard for a minute, i see no highlights i take it no one used the screen thing in 9.04 [14:08] 怎么没人说话啊？ [14:08] cwill747 - I installed karmic and it keeps thinking my two samba drives are raid - and they are not. my motherboard doesnt even support raid. [14:09] blackxored: yeah im just going through checking out my crash reports, i think some of these crashing or non-working apps might not have been installed from the repos, i might have done it manually at the time, i cant remember. [14:09] ziyou, english here, #ubuntu-cn for Chinese [14:09] !msg ubottu cn [14:09] Sorry, I don't know anything about msg ubottu cn [14:09] this is a song la la la la elmo song [14:09] ziyou ,Äã»á˵ººÓï°¡ [14:09] tMx, ?? [14:09] cwill747 - as if that wasnt enough of a headache, if I plug just 1 samba drive in, the raid thing is gone. So I thought - awesome, mount it by fstab, reboot, power on last drive, maybe itll be fine. But when I mount by fstab and try to open the drives up, I get an error about it failing and only root can do it. [14:09] mattgyver, fine [14:09] what's the ubuntu chat/offtopic chan? [14:09] !ot | zer0her0 [14:09] zer0her0: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks!

[14:10] DJones: thanks :) [14:10] cwill747, it's "/msg ubottu" not "!msg ubottu" [14:10] Has anybody had any success installing the nVidia 190. driver for a Quadro NVS 280 SD? on karmic..guess I should clarify [14:10] and that would be rev c1 [14:10] ZykoticK9: yeah. i know. can't i hit a wrong key? haha [14:10] bazhang: i am fine with text based installers too but i was afraid if i have type partition locations or commands as i am not comfortable with it.... though i am fine with TAB [14:10] DMK: i have [14:10] fakeer, I'm not sure, but its not terribly difficult; is this on a different computer from the one you are currently irc'ing on [14:11] DMK: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/08/how-to-install-nvidia-190xx-drivers-in.html I use this repo [14:11] Hello, [14:11] I currently have 64-Bit machine that has a 250 GB SATA drive that has three primary partitions and a extended partition. The three primary partitions sda1, sda2, and sda3 are 20.5 GB each and have jaunty 64-bit, hardy 32-bit, and windows 7 RC Os installed previously on them, respectively. The extended partition (sda4) is about 171.7 GB and is divided uniformly and consecutively as follows: [14:11] sda9 4GB Linux swap [14:11] sda10 12GB NTFS --used [14:11] AL__: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [14:11] sda11 25GB ext3 ---> empty partition I wish to place the new Karmic 64-bit OS [14:11] sda5 33.2GB NTFS --used [14:11] why does ubuntu netbook remix require more RAM than standard Ubuntu? [14:11] sda6 34.5 GB NTFS --used [14:11] sda7 34.7 GB NTFS -- used [14:11] jayce: yeah, I think in general samba drives are headaches. the samba conf file was prob the biggest project i've ever done. I cant think of what's up with yours [14:11] sda8 28.3 GB NTFS --used [14:11] My question is if I try to install the Karmic 64-Bit OS on the above empty partition, will the new partitioner install a grub boot menu that will recognize all the other operating systems? If not, what is the best way to install it to allow all of them to be recognized at boot menu? How can I use the manual partitioner so that all of them are recognized. [14:11] AL__, use pastebin [14:11] I tried to install Karmic in the above manner. When I got to the partitioning screen, it showed all of the other other systems and had the radio button filled ["install side by side"] but did not instruct me on where to install the OS. When I pressed the option to go to the next screen, I received the message "Everything will be deleted."

I just installed ubuntu karmic 64 bit on usb, installation went ok but after reboot it says "grub error 15' any idea why or how to fix this? [14:11] cwill747 - it has nothing to do with samba, though. Im fine with samba. These drives are mounted within ubuntu by fstab and it cant even do that in karmic. [14:12] where do I go to adjust the brightness of my display? [14:12] if I add something similar to fstab "///path/to/share /home//folder cifs auto 0 0" it gets mounted as root? Need it mounted as user [14:12] ActionParsnip1: 512 RAM is listed as minimum on the canonical.com netbook section, while karmic only requires 256 [14:12] fakeer, will you be doing manual partitioning, or guided [14:12] lista === syntax is now known as Guest70546 [14:12] xukun, does it hang there? [14:12] ActionParsnip1 thx [14:12] when I dual boot ubuntu in windows,grub came up and it says sh: grub_ what shall I write ? [14:12] klaas2: its only recommended [14:13] will try this..and see what happens [14:13] klaas2: it is interesting though [14:13] jayce: i know, i was just complaining. i don't know what the problem could be. === Guest70546 is now known as _syntax_ [14:13] syk, yes it does [14:14] bazhang: manual...as i'll put 9.10 in the same partition where 9.04 is right now..no other change...so, i guess partitioning is already done [14:14] cwill747, any idea how to disable the login prompt sound [14:14] ActionParsnip1: the site says "minimum hardware requirements" = 512 RAM, is that incorrect? [14:14] MK13: system -> preferences -> sound [14:14] hello guys, I just dist-upgraded to karmic and wireless is not working any more. wlan0 is up but not associated with essid, thou it's properly set in /etc/network/interfaces and seen by iwlist scan [14:14] klaas2: ive not use NBR personally, i'd just use a lighter DE [14:14] fakeer, will you be making a separate /home partition and are you familiar with the other partitions you need to set up [14:14] hi [14:14] klaa2, i mean the sound when the login screen is ready [14:15] <[TK]D-Fender> Hello all. I'm new to the thought of 64 bit system really, and was wondering what the impact would be of running 62 vs 32 on something like a Core2Duo w/ only 2gig ram. I wouldn't need the 64 bit for RAM requirements... it there any reason to go 64 just yet? Last I heard there wre still a alrger volume of software that wasn't built to compile for it yet... [14:15] xukun: i'd suggest reinstalling grub [14:15] im trying to make a copy of a 12gb file (a virtualbox .vdi file) and basically everything grinds to a halt while this is being done... is there a way to copy a huge file slowly, like throttling? [14:15] http://paste.ubuntu.com/305087/ [14:15] Help plz. I went to system>>users and groups and change my account. Now i dont know the root password. BUT i didnt specify it in the beginning so how do i get it back?? [14:15] im using cp oldfile nefilename currently [14:15] shall i install grub when i am dual boot [14:16] [TK]D-Fender, I would only go 64bit if you plan to upgrade to or past 4g ram, or use harddrives >2tb [14:16] MK13: system -> administration -> login? [14:16] apps: it would be the first user you created (why are added to sudoers) [14:16] klaas2, has no options for sound :( [14:16] why do my mpeg's not play? [14:16] ActionParsnip1: I guess ill have to try it and see how bad it is ;). thanks for your help [14:16] MK13: yeah, that's where it used to be. i'm looking around again [14:16] gburton-> thats is common, your bus can only accomodate so much, plus your hd controller may only be one controller [14:16] bazhang: no i always put entire ubuntu on one partition (on disk it's just after Vista (0) i.e. on (1) ) and everytihg /home etc are inside that partition..atleast i don't create anything ever myself..got 2GB ram so no swap too..though i put it later from inside Ubuntu wehre ever want... [14:16] just installed 9.10, thanks, not bad :) [14:16] cwill747, yea i had it done on 9.04 but it vanished :O [14:17] n8tuser: right, but surely you can throttle the copy? [14:17] QUESTION - Anybody have Karmic installed with drives auto-mounting in fstab with any issues? [14:17] true but i dont know the root password. i didnt make one. [14:17] emapthy is a bit of a pidgin rip off though lol [14:17] fakeer, how big a partition overall [14:17] Younder : ubuntu-restricted-extras was installed? [14:17] I even tried iwconfig wlan0 essid "NETGEAR" manually but that doesn't have any effect. module is loaded and everything seems ok, but essid is not associated... [14:17] MK13: In that case i dont know, i'm not on ubuntu no so I cant check. Good luck with finding the solution! [14:17] apps: there isnt one, its the password to your first account. unless thats what you forgot. [14:17] gburton-> i doubt it, perhaps some tricks with hdparm, but i would not do it for just that single copy [14:17] bazhang: it's a 35 GB [14:17] nope i tried it but i says authentication failure [14:17] partition [14:18] <[TK]D-Fender> patdk-lap: OK, this may be an issue for servers for me before too long.. thanks for the heads up [14:18] Ok installing 9.10 [14:18] n8tuser: i dont want to discuss the particulars but "other oses" are capable of multitasking hdd access... [14:18] fakeer, ok. good idea to create swap though [14:18] apps: by default u dont make a root password in ubuntu... u use sudo command [14:18] ooo, restricted drivers available, nice [14:18] [TK]D-Fender, I run x64 on all my of systems, since 2 years ago [14:19] Hi all: ubuntu 9.10 upgrade broke my grub bootloader - can i get some advice on how to fix my bootloader? [14:19] does skype run on 64 now? [14:19] 45 minutes on my system [14:19] but its asking for "password for root" and when i put in my normal password it says authentication failure [14:19] gburton-> you common denominator is your bus to the controller and the controllers ability to do dma [14:19] why does help.ubuntu.com not have the help pages for Karmic yet? [14:19] klaas2, no problem and thanks for the help [14:19] jbicha: because its super new [14:19] da65: yes, most stuff runs on 64, and also 32 can usually run on 64 === ripthejacker is now known as san2345 [14:19] <[TK]D-Fender> patdk-lap: Will keep this in mind... thanks again. [14:19] bazhang: yeah right..but never done it .. and i always do it after installing ubuntu..isn't that good..because at the time of installation i may have to create another partition for that which i don't want to do [14:19] plus, who needs help? Works perfect :) [14:20] MK13: all i can find is that you can't do it. [14:20] !grub | l3 [14:20] n8tuser: so what are "other oses" doing that linux is not?

Do you get errors? [14:21] how to set static ip adress?

[14:21] 9.10 Karmic have someproblem [14:21] jayce, everything (remote) mounted as root, no user access, also get a messge on boot that error w/fstab [14:22] fakeer, it is really intuitive; sounds with your minimal partitioning that it wont be much of an issue--be sure to back up all important data (of course) beforehand though [14:22] cwill747, ouch not willing to do that :( [14:22] beachdaze - Im trying to mount 3 backup drives in fstab. None of th em work. Its so frustrating its unreal since it worked since the beginning of time with other ubuntu versions.

I am planning on installing Ubuntu this weekend, I have a long fbsd experience so i guess I won't face serious issues, but I'd like to know if there's someone that has installed it on a TOSHIBA SATELLITE A300 (I am not sure about the short model) [14:23] san2345: and example http://paste.ubuntu.com/305093/ [14:23] Hi, what would be a good way to mount cue/bin cd-images in Ubuntu?

[14:23] hmm..now my D-link Dwa-140 break =( [14:23] im on windows now [14:23] jayce-> how are you mounting those 3 drives? manually? or at least can you try a manual mount to test before using fstab? [14:23] how they connected? [14:23] beachdaze - I guess this is where we play the waiting game and wait for an update. [14:23] san2345: well this is an Ubuntu channel :) [14:23] i cant connect net on ubuntu [14:23] ya [14:23] cwill747, i could also probably rename the sound file right? [14:23] bazhang: yeah backedup /home and as i had cleaned up after package installs i could do AptOnCD .. so it's fine I guess..and besides everything was on Dropbox too (almost ) :) [14:23] i know [14:23] i use ubuntu [14:23] n8tuser - If I remember correctly I can mount them manually [14:23] vubuntor9930-> it works on my ibm t42 thinkpad, but im using 8.10 [14:23] its on ubuntu im not able to set [14:23] n8tuser - but not to be a jerk, I cant have that.

[14:24] jayce-> try it now again manually, and then move forward to fstab once you got it going [14:24] ya [14:24] hi, what's the command to rsync the my beta dvd iso to the latest karmic? I keep getting errors [14:24] san2345: is it wired or wireless? [14:24] san2345: so that's what i have sent you, ubuntu setup for static ip [14:24] n8tuser - it does NOT work with fstab. It doesnt. Ive tried. [14:24] bazhang: any issues installing GRUB?? I remeber I check a box while using LiveCD....any instructions you wanna give?? [14:24] well im using xchat anyshortcut to paste usr nick [14:24] san2345: tab complete my nick at the start of lines if they are addressed to me [14:24] its wired lan [14:24] hmm [14:25] jayce-> once more, try not with manual mount.. perhaps you can show me your exact command [14:25] bazhang: it's strange I couldn't find any tutorial or screenshots for Alternate CD... you know any? [14:25] n8tuser, same basic issue as jayce, when mounting thru fstab nas drives are mounted as root, not user as in 9.04? [14:25] n8tuser - try not with manual mount? [14:25] san2345: ok so can you ping your routers internal IP? [14:25] beachdaze-> depends on the options of mount [14:25] fakeer, for karmic? not really, though others online should be quite similar [14:25] well thats not my issue [14:25] wen i try to set it static the save tab is greyed [14:25] jayce-> i meant use the mount command to mount i manually.. have you tried it yet? [14:26] bazhang: no , i couldn't find one for even jaunty [14:26] san2345, please prepend the person's nick that you are addressing [14:26] sorry === apis_87 is now known as arepeace [14:26] cwill747, any clue where it is located? [14:26] san2345: on xchat, start typing then tab the name out, like in the terminal [14:26] san2345: well whats your issue [14:26] n8tuser, same as it was in 9.04, "///path/to/share /home//folder cifs auto 0 0" [14:27] sorry to be a pain, but I am finding more and more issues with Karmic...I've just discovered that Ubuntu no longer recognises that I have an Audigy 4 sound card, and I have to use some generic internal driver. What happens now though is when my boys play supertux, the sound in intrermittent with crackling and noise?? [14:27] n8tuser, that line worked fine in 9.04 [14:27] hi does any one know how to convert flv to wmv9 format please [14:27] beachdaze, n8tuser - I dont even do THAT much in fstab. I simply put the UUID and the path I want it to mount. n8tuser just hits me with errors.... [14:28] beachdaze-> may i suggest doing a man mount, or man fstab and look for the user vs users option i believe [14:28] ActionParsnip1, actualy i mainly use xp i hav a lan but recently i installed ubuntu to just try it out but in ubuntu ipv4 cant b change and i hav to change it [14:28] san2345: try running the app using gksudo [14:28] MK13: /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo [14:28] hi [14:28] is it possible to have different wallpapers on different monitors? (running dual monitor setup) [14:28] can somebody help me with font problems in Firefox? [14:29] what font problems? [14:29] n8tuser, did that already, when adding the users to the fstab, it allows browsing but no writing [14:29] jayce-> thats the point of i want you to try this manually so you can see the errors, perhaps your uuid is wrong, use sudo blkid to find it [14:29] san2345: or you can use /etc/network/interfaces to define the addressing [14:29] i want to change my ipv4 but as i keep manual and change it the Apply options dissapears [14:29] n8tuser - I did :) [14:29] Anyone know how to edit the grub menu in 9.10? /boot/grub/menu.lst dosn't work [14:29] c3l_: GIMP! Make those wallpapers into one gigantic file! [14:29] cwill747, the system ready i am guessing? [14:29] I can't get the fonts to change...I set default to Times New Roman but it doesn't look any different [14:29] n8tuser - I can assure you, my UUID is perfect. I've looked at it a thousand times. [14:29] I basically want it to look like does in windows haha [14:29] !grub2 | Dezent [14:29] Dezent: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [14:29] beachdaze-> look for more options, i cant remember all of them, look in particular regaring ability to read/write for the users [14:29] Dezent: /boot/grub/grub.cfg but it will get changed after kernel installs [14:30] leaf-sheep, time consuming! why cant it work like in KDE? [14:30] Thanks!! [14:30] n8tuser - I dont get any errors until Im in ubuntu. Then when I select places and I click on the hard drive that fstab auto-mounted, it gives me an error that only root can do that. [14:30] leaf-sheep, well what about different wallpapers on different desktops? [14:30] what's new with 9.10 ? [14:30] n8tuser, I'll go back and re-read, but I find it strange that 9.10 broke this...thanks for the help! [14:30] Dezent: you will need to edit config scripts and files for grub2 to be permanently changed [14:30] This would be easier if not for old Pici [14:30] ActionParsnip1: Thanks!!! [14:30] Younder: I'll be done soon [14:30] :) [14:30] abc [14:30] Hi, booted the 64-bit Live CD of 9.10 (Desktop) and it's asking me to login, tried user ubuntu with blank password (and ubuntu as password) and nothing works [14:30] How do I get in? :( [14:30] c3l_: Well, if you don't -- It'll stretch out. This is only a suggestion but you're welcome to find another solution. :) [14:30] !grub2 | Dezent [14:30] Dezent: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic.

I can not record sound in 9.10 (neither Skype nor in Sound Recorder). I checked the volume preferences, they seem fine. How else should I diagnose this? [14:32] Xserver, better than what [14:32] ssh for remote desktop or CLI ? [14:32] HiThereC: Run this in the TTY1 will work too --> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [14:32] Xserver: both, you can run the x based apps using remote X server [14:32] couldnt get a tty [14:33] expressfr [14:33] Xserver-> ahh, use xvnc [14:33] hm...I seem to have lost the sound in Ubuntu... just installed 9.10, and now when I start X, there is no audio-device present [14:33] Younder : Better than CLI .. as i need to run WINE on ubuntu server [14:33] Xserver: why do you need the full desktop? [14:33] is there a way to "reinstall" the soundcard? [14:33] is it better to configure encryption during installation or to configure truecrypt later? [14:33] no getty was running or something, just saw some "Authentication Failure" messages and no login prompt or shell [14:33] Xserver, openvnc [14:33] Your server has bee set up for remote access using SSH [14:33] Younder : yes [14:33] unimatrix: cryptsetup and Truecrypt is not the same thing. [14:33] but wine doesn't work without Desktop [14:33] hey, trying this on ubuntu (sudo -u www-data apache2 -t -D DUMP_MODULES) and getting an error: apache2: bad user name ${APACHE_RUN_USER} [14:33] so need to install gnome / kde [14:33] Xserver: it will if you use a remote x server [14:34] hello i have a question, i have a ati x1300, which with the current driver offered from ubuntu is quite literally not functional. always crashes, didn't before 9.04. anyways, i now have a nvidia 6200, and i couldn't find any problems online with this card and 9.04-9.10, but have you heard of any problems here? I don't want to switch graphics cards and lose graphics power just for a card that's also gonna have linux probs [14:34] <[manas]> i got internal hardisk whit ntfs particion so everytime i restart my machine i need to mount it is it any change i can avoid it??????? [14:34] cwill747, i added the notification applet then relogged in and the network icon is back, thanks [14:34] leaf-sheep: which one is better? [14:34] [manas]: /etc/fstab [14:34] bazhang: thank you...i think i will install now..hope i don not ruin my other partitons :) .. still a tutorial would instill some confidence in me :) [14:34] Xserver: if you are using a linux client you can run: ssh -X user@server [14:34] ActionParsnip1, i am very new to linux also to irc [14:34] ActionParsnip1 : Sorry ... but i am on Windows [14:34] Xserver: you can then launch X based apps and they will appear on the client system but be running on the server [14:35] unimatrix: It depends on one's preferences. My belief is that cryptsetup is nice/better because that's something native in linux. [14:35] Xserver: then you can install and run xming [14:35] !chat [14:35] The Instant Messenger Client Pidgin (formerly Gaim) (http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pidgin) supports MSN, XMPP (Jabber, GTalk and variants), AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ, YIM, IRC and others.

[14:36] [manas]: First, run "sudo blkid" and find out the partition's /dev name [14:36] mountall won't run [14:36] [manas]: Or even better, the UUID. [14:36] ActionParsnip1, What windows program is that you wish to run remotely, and how did you get yourself in this precarious situation? [14:36] and when dropping to recovery shell, it asks for a password [14:36] boscop: why put them there? [14:36] will it mess up things to do it manually? [14:36] Xserver: totally, as long as the app you need is installed with its deps then you can run them in this style [14:36] boscop: ~/.local/share/Trash/ [14:36] but, is there any kind of root/recovery shell password in ubuntu? [14:37] boscop: chown, chmod, or - if you prefer - rm -rf. [14:37] inthevidual: If you had set a root password, use that. [14:37] grawity: I know, but there are special info files in Trash/info [14:37] inthevidual: you may boot single user mode by selecting the "Recovery mode" kernel at the grub menu [14:37] i have a ati x1300 that crashes with ubuntu's 8.10 and higher, works perfect with 8.04. i have a nvidia 6200, not nearly as good, but im willing to take the hit if i am not gonna have the saem problem with ubuntu. i don't want to have to buy new hardware every 2 years just to have ubuntu, might as well buy windows then.... anyone else have this problem? [14:37] inthevidual: yeah, reinstall [14:37] boscop: Eh, just nuke the entire thing and it'll be okay. [14:37] bazhang: i may get in touch with you from a friend's computer in case of a trouble...many thanks..leaving now.. [14:37] inthevidual: If you haven't -- then it should not ask. [14:37] inthevidual, no, you would need a fedora style startup for that [14:37] inthevidual: However, there are ways to bypass it... [14:37] grawity: should I also delete the info files? [14:37] hello.....if i install ubuntu 9.10 after windows 7 ....in the grub i can see windows? [14:37] does ubuntu have a chat area plz [14:37] <[manas]> grawity, /dev/sda5: UUID="460063AD0063A2A3" LABEL="WD320" TYPE="ntfs" [14:37] ActionParsnip1, plzz help me out [14:37] da65: #ubuntu-offtopic [14:37] ty [14:37] ActionParsnip1 : can i pm you ? i can't see anything in this msg floods ... [14:38] [manas]: Okay. Now where do you want to mount it? /media/somewhere or such. [14:38] Boohbah: the problem is that that doesn't work either, the single user mode. it still asks for a root password even though i never set one [14:38] Younder: i'm showing how a full desktop isnt needed and you can use x forwarding [14:38] hey I just installed ubuntu 9.10 and i cant get my wireless to work [14:38] Xserver: sure [14:38] Daedauls-Sax, i don't know about the 6200 specifically, but generally moving from ATI to Nvidia will NOT be a performace hit - it's gonna work a lot better. best of luck. [14:38] inthevidual: 'Recovery mode' is exactly the same as "single user"... [14:38] I used remastersys yo make the original install cd, could that have had any effect? [14:38] it looks like the driver isnt installed [14:38] ActionParsnip1, wen i try to set ip manually they apply option greys out [14:38] san2345: the guide I gave is as clear as I can make it [14:38] inthevidual, set runlevel 2 to text login single user etc [14:38] can anyone help [14:38] inthevidual: You can try appending this instead: init=/bin/bash [14:38] SELECT FROM #ubuntu where UserID = "ActionParsnip1" <<<<------------ Hope this would have worked ... [14:38] <[manas]> grawity, i just want it to be allway when i restart my machine [14:38] ActionParsnip1, sorry i missed the mssg [14:38] grawity: I know, but it still asks me for a root password when dropping to recovery shell [14:38] san2345: use the /etc/network/interfaces file to define the IP [14:39] no sound i upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 [14:39] Ubuntu is now stuck on the pulsing ubuntu logo on startup, CD drive has stopped and its doing nothing... or is it?

[14:47] joaopinto, first few years I used Linux, most hardware didn't work, or required someone reverse-engineering the drivers. [14:47] I remember when WinModems were the bane. [14:47] ptn107: i havent done a sudo yet let me try that [14:47] hiyas. what's the easiest way to set up bridged networking with qemu in ubuntu linux? [14:48] I did a dist-upgrade to Karmic about two weeks ago, is it worth doing a clean install? Will it be that different? [14:48] WilliamC, and the isse is not with linux, but with the vendors, drivers are vendors responsibility [14:48] yeah that software moem was a pain [14:48] modem even [14:48] thanks [14:48] i think it works now [14:48] how does everyone like ubunutu 9.10??? [14:48] eniacpx, if you don't have any problem, it doesn't worth a reinstall [14:48] boscop, Don't set a root passwd alla 'sudo passw root' [14:48] 2 cans and string was faster :) [14:48] joaopinto, well, the issue is that they don't take us seriously enough, but it's getting better. [14:48] I'd like to install Ubuntu to a USB drive from an iMac and run it on that Mac, without using a CD. Is there some way to do that? [14:48] password [14:48] ptn107: i think that might have done it ill let you know [14:48] joaopinto: thanks [14:49] Hi all, [14:49] Hi. I've upgraded a server domU (using Xen) to karmic, but it refuses to boot, saying: mountall:/proc: unable to mount: Device or resource busy. any ideas? [14:49] Marchingknight11: k [14:49] Anyone knows what is the default connect timeout? [14:50] 1 minute? [14:50] are there any tools to set up virtual (tun/tap or whatever) networking? [14:50] preferably graphical tools ^^ [14:50] cdimage.ubuntu.com seems hammered === John is now known as Guest23763 [14:51] is anyone having issues with installing software from the ubuntu software center in 9.10?? almost every program i goto install says "not available in the current data" any ideas what that means? [14:51] why would mountall fail on booting a karmic virtual guest? [14:51] how do i install an rpm driver under ubuntu then? [14:51] kermit? === funkyHat is now known as funkyClone === funkyClone is now known as funkyHat [14:51] SurfyDudee, you don't [14:51] Ubuntu Kermit! [14:51] joaopinto, the only issue I have is that since I installed 9.10 it's not auto-logging in. [14:51] rpm is fedora/redhat distribution [14:52] !alien | SurfyDudee [14:52] SurfyDudee: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) === benebioglu is now known as hellyeah === Mike||gone is now known as Mike_lifeguard [14:52] SurfyDudee, use the .deb files [14:52] I'm going to upgrade to karmic now, why does it want to uninstall so many packages? [14:52] there is no .deb file [14:52] just an rpm [14:52] How do i get the update manager appearing in my system tray when there are updates like in previous versions? (on karmic) [14:53] SurfyDudee: then install from source [14:53] SurfyDudee, then pleask ask the vendor to provide a deb, or check if there is a compatible driver already on the kernel [14:53] so I just upgraded another desktop here in our lab to 9.10....it rebooted and is blinking at the login prompt. Didn't even try to bring up gui login....I've ssh'd in to apt-get update && apt-get upgrade . Hopefully that fixes it. [14:53] SurfyDudee, the get the source distribution [14:53] 2 other desktops went without issue btw [14:53] is karmic faster in execution than jaunty? [14:53] hi [14:53] boscop, nothing significant [14:53] What is wrong with http://packages.ubuntu.com ? [14:53] Boscop, I haven't noticed a difference. [14:54] joaopinto: too bad :( why is ubuntu soo slow compared to win xp? [14:54] Boscop, it shouldn't be. [14:54] axmm [14:54] ubuntu jaunty livecd error > "Frequency out of range". Not installing karmic. [14:54] BEEP BEEP BEEP flame war approaching [14:54] good [14:54] boscop: dont start a flame war dude [14:54] boscop, because it provides more services & features [14:54] here it comes [14:54] boscop: poor config [14:54] boscop, if you have a lower resources system you would better use xubuntu [14:54] where r u from? [14:54] ubuntu karmic livecd error > "Frequency out of range". Not installing karmic. [14:54] my wired icon looks like the plug is pulled? [14:54] WilliamC: it is! in takes 96% cpu with opera playing 2 or 3 youtube videos [14:54] Stop feeding the trolls. [14:55] yasin: install karmic. is the latest stable [14:55] boscop: not here, maybe your config sucks [14:55] trolls usually have a point [14:55] ActionParsnip1, uh ? Ubuntu requirements are higher tan XP, that is not a configurtion issue, it's the regular system requirements [14:55] I know, been there [14:55] joaopinto: actually, last time I checked Xubuntu uses more memory out of the box than ubuntu. [14:55] americans ?? [14:55] How do i get the update manager appearing in my system tray when there are updates like in previous versions? (on karmic) [14:55] Lubuntu is lighter but... so far haven't seen an official release of Lubuntu yet. [14:55] cellofellow, that is not expected, if it does you should file a bug report, since that is not how it's listed on the system requirements [14:55] joaopinto: none of my systems will take XP, but will runlinux admirably [14:56] joaopinto: is 2 Ghz cpu lower resource? or 1GB ram? I had a computer with 256 MB ram and 1.5 Gzh before and it ran faster (on win xp) [14:56] my wired icon looks like the plug is pulled? how come? [14:56] ptn107: i got disconnected it said i had to reboot and after doing that it still isnt working [14:56] boscop, you're doing something wrong. [14:56] ActionParsnip1, so you are lucky, that doesn't change the facts, please read the Ubuntu system requirements if you have doubts [14:56] boscop: CPU is less important than RAM. [14:56] WilliamC: what is it? [14:56] hi .. after upgrading to karmic I can't find the Bitstream Vera fonts [14:56] cellofellow: but the cpu is often at max [14:56] Boscop, maybe it's Opera. [14:56] ptn107: it shows 2 broadcom drivers, B43 wireless driver and STA wireless driver [14:56] boscop: that suggests something is horribly wrong... [14:56] boscop, ok, that is not a very low system, so you are likely to have some problem causing the performance degradation [14:56] joaopinto: i dont doubt what some site says. I'm telling you what Ive actually seen and experienced [14:56] when will they replace the damn keyserver, it constantly down!! [14:56] WilliamC: I even had to stop using firefox [14:56] boscop: anything greater than 800Mhz should do fine, and a 1/2GB RAM is just barely enough. [14:56] Please.ubuntu karmic livecd error > "Frequency out of range". Not installing karmic. Philips 107E [14:56] nsahoo: Do you have DejaVu fonts? (If I recall correctly, DejaVu ones are just extended Bitstream Vera.) [14:57] I have the driver but its RPM.... and I can't use Alien cuz someone told me it will screw everything up [14:57] Marchingknight11: you want the b43 one [14:57] SurfyDudee. I suppose you know the mantra. install in /usr/src do a tar azvf. a .configure and a make and a make install [14:57] boscop, have you considered reinstalling? [14:57] ActionParsnip1, the user was not asking about your experience, was asking about a general question about performance between OSes === xaxaxax is now known as apostasiopoihmen [14:57] !info ttf-bitstream [14:57] grawity: i have those, let me try using them [14:57] ptn107: ok, i activated that and rebooted and it still isnt working [14:57] gburton: what could it be? I didn't change anything except updating/upgrading since installation [14:57] joaopinto: well i can only call it as i see it [14:57] When upgrading to ubuntu server 9.10 from 9.04, if I closed do-release-upgrade before it finished, can I simply re-run it again, or will it attempt to upgrade to the next version of ubuntu in development? [14:57] boscop: try using System Monitor, htop, or plain top to see what is hogging your resources. [14:57] there is a misconception that Ubuntu can run everywhere faster than any OS, which is not true [14:57] Package ttf-bitstream does not exist in karmic [14:57] boscop: open a terminal and run top [14:58] i've found major bug in 9.10 [14:58] WilliamC: what would that change? [14:58] grawity: i guess they are fine [14:58] SurfyDudee: if there is an RPM there may be source code you can compile [14:58] ActionParsnip1, and how does that help the question ? [14:58] alyone from Wales here and use Boinc, please join the Welsh team, I am the founder, sry for the plug buts its for a good free cause :) [14:58] boscop, hopefully the problem. [14:58] I asked in the xubuntu channel, but got no response: I'm having a problem with saving my wireless WPA passhprase using Xubuntu. I have "Start GNOME services" enabled, and I also installed "Seahorse" via Synaptics. [14:58] However, the NetworkManager is not saving my WPA passphrase. And the one time it did, it left it unprotected (plaintext, not a hash, like GNOME does.) [14:58] I have no idea how to do that...im new to ubuntu [14:58] When I open up Seahorse, I cannot "change password" for the login key. [14:58] so many users [14:59] WilliamC: the problem is, that apps take so much cpu, often operapluginwrapper is at the top [14:59] can you tell me in easy terms please [14:59] Marchingknight11: you can try the other then, just make sure you deactivate b43 first [14:59] flan_suse: http://wicd.sourceforge.net/ [14:59] One of the regressions introduced in 9.10 is that DVB support seems to have been lost (due to the removal of totem-xine)... how can I get this back? [14:59] wow ... post 9.10 rush hour [14:59] boscop, that shouldn't happen, ever. [14:59] module000, I don't like wicd. [14:59] ptn107: ok thanks ill try that [14:59] WilliamC: with windows, minimized apps don't take so much cpu [14:59] lol i just noticed the 1698 users O_o [14:59] module000, wicd stores your passphrase in plaintext in a global file, accessible by anyone. [14:59] the more the merrier ? [14:59] boscop, how long have you been having this problem? [14:59] flan_suse-> i do not use those other gui tools, can you not do it manually in the /etc/network/interfaces file? [14:59] i am on an acer aspire 5315 when i installed karmic processor overheat and caused pc to shut off [14:59] WilliamC: what can I do? if I reinstall it, I delete all my configs [14:59] flan_suse: odd, mine does not, it's sha2'd [15:00] When upgrading to ubuntu server 9.10 from 9.04, if I closed do-release-upgrade before it finished, can I simply re-run it again, or will it attempt to upgrade to the next version of xubuntu in development? [15:00] WilliamC: it has been slow since installation [15:00] module000, what version of wicd? [15:00] is there a way to bind a mouse key to a different key-combo depending on which application has mouse focus ? [15:00] my wired icon looks like the plug is pulled? how come? [15:00] is there a way to completely reinstall my sound? I tried installed XBMC, and for some reason, Ubuntu no longer think I have a soundcard [15:00] Consty: you may have to run: sudo apt-et -f install [15:00] flan_suse: 1.5.9 [15:00] is anyone experiencing random crashes with the new release 9.10 ? Gnome just randomly crashed and I found myself in the login screen. I checked /var/log/messages and found only one thing about pid.c and pulseaudio [15:00] (like having the tile wheel issue shift+tab to firefox and alt+left to nautilus) [15:00] Younder how do i do a source install [15:00] i think we should split the channel... everybody, to #ubuntu-network or #ubuntu-hardware! [15:00] boscop, it really should never behave like that. [15:00] hi all. [15:00] flan_suse: i had endless troubles with wifi in networkmanager though, that's what prompted the switch [15:00] when will they replace the damn keyserver, it constantly down!! [15:00] Boinc-Rosetta I should say [15:00] module000, I've tried the latest version of wicd, and it's still stored in the wireless.conf file, unhashed. [15:00] ActionParsnip1: Would the command fail if it didn't work? Because I reran it a second time and it seems to be doing it, but have no idea what version it's upgrading to [15:01] when trying to upgrade form 9.04 to 9.10, will not update dkms, fakeroot and lupin-support. keeps asking for cd "Ubuntu 9.10 _Karmic Koala_ - Release i386 (20091028.5)" which i never had. i cant even find that cd image. can someone assist please [15:01] Can anyone tell me how to do a source install of an rom driver [15:01] rpm* [15:01] flan_suse: what flags are you compiling with? that should not be default behavior [15:01] carresmd: use pgp.mit.edu instead [15:01] !rpm | SurfyDudee [15:01] SurfyDudee: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) [15:01] WilliamC: I thought linux handles resources better than windows. but apparently, it does not so good [15:01] Consty: it should hopefully resume the install and fix stuff [15:01] Will the ubuntu karmic iso still work if i burn it to a dvd-rw? [15:01] boscop: stop complaining, its freeeee! [15:01] ActionParsnip1: Haha, guess I'll test it then [15:01] ActionParsnip1, but I want to publish my keys to keyserver.ubuntu.com so I can use it in launchpad.. :-( [15:01] hi. I'm on Karmic and I just tried installing grip, the CD ripping software, and it's not in the repositories, though it was in previous versions of Ubuntu, apparently. I noticed that some other software that should be available and was in earlier ubuntu releases isn't anymore. Can anyone explain why that is? Have the packages perhaps just not been added to the repositories yet? [15:02] Consty: 99.5% yes :) [15:02] gburton: that's why I still use it [15:02] if i gave you free ice cream would you complain that it didnt have enough chocolate chips? [15:02] carresmd: they rsync between each other [15:02] gburton: and I love it, but I just wish it would be faster :( [15:02] conb123: 99.5% yes [15:02] Consty: sorry ... wrong nick :) [15:02] merl15, I was looking for grip too and found it missing. [15:02] merl15, have you checked your sources? [15:02] ActionParsnip1, ok. I'll try that, thanks [15:02] you said your CPU was maxed out, that tells me you have a problem. [15:02] my cpu is at 4% right now [15:02] module000, not compiling. Binary .deb from the wicd ppa. [15:02] boscop: try a different distribution then, maybe ubuntu isnt for you [15:02] brotkasten: Brilliant thanks [15:02] WilliamC: would it help to install the other 1 GB ram I have outside? [15:03] flan_suse: hrm..i don't haev any advice there, i don't know what flags they use in their binary offerings [15:03] Plugh, oh :( [15:03] boscop, I have 512 MB of RAM and a slower processor and don't have that problem. [15:03] ActionParsnip1: but everyone suggests their distro only, I don't know what's right for me [15:03] WilliamC, yes, what about them? [15:03] boscop: you just need to try some to see what you like [15:03] WilliamC: can you play games fast enough? [15:04] flan_suse: back to network manager...have you tried destroying it's local settings and restarting it? maybe there are some conflicting preferences saved causing adverse behavior [15:04] whats the best game in linux ? [15:04] you wont get better than ubuntu unless your running non gui [15:04] does any skype binarypackage works on 9.04? [15:04] boscop, yes. [15:04] packages.ubuntu is down? [15:04] tMx: alien arena [15:04] ActionParsnip1: actually, I want a working system, not having to transfer my data all the time and reconfiguring all stuff [15:04] boscop, you seem to have the idea that there is a difference between distributions. I have news for you. There isn't any interesting difference between them. [15:04] k [15:04] tMx: frets on fire imho. There is no best [15:04] !best | tMx [15:04] tMx: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [15:04] mnass: I have skype working in 9.04 xubuntu [15:04] non, gui go Debian everytime, superb [15:04] intel grafics working any better on 9.10? [15:04] tMx: penumbra is pretty cool too (its paid for but the demo is free) [15:04] merl15, make sure you have all of the install sources checked so you can install all packages. [15:04] module000, in my home directory you mean? [15:04] wich packache do you use squidly [15:04] Where does BitchX store its settings/config? ~/.BitchX ? [15:05] flan_suse: yes, just a shot in the dark though [15:05] boscop: then have a seperate home partition [15:05] WilliamC, yeah, they are all "checked" [15:05] module000, I did not have this problem on Ubuntu. It only gives me this issue on Xubuntu. [15:05] ActionParsnip1, I'm trying to play Penumbra in WINE and it doesn't work. [15:05] flan_suse: does xubuntu also use network-manager by default?(i've never used it and don't know) [15:05] are some packages just not available in the karmic repositories yet? [15:05] boscop, you can replace the distro kernel with your own kernel if you want. You can install stuff from source if you want on all of them. They all have the same drivers. They sometimes have different package systems, but that's about it. [15:05] WilliamC: theres a linux version, you dont need wine [15:05] WilliamC, why didn't you get the Linux version? [15:05] ptn107: i attempted to activate broadcom sta wireless driver and it wont let me [15:06] WilliamC: its a native linux game [15:06] ActionParsnip1, I picked it up from the bargain bin, plus my laptop runs XP and that's my main computer. [15:06] How can I install firefox 3.0 in Karmic? [15:06] sigh [15:06] The Karmic repositories only have 3.5 :\ [15:06] Hi, I just noticed that the pydev package for eclipse is missing. Will that be added again to the repos for karmic? [15:06] is there a online scabble available? [15:06] flan_suse: check(or possibly destroy) /etc/NetworkManager settigns also [15:06] scrabble even [15:06] Marchingknight11: Which device do you have? I have karmic on a laptop with a Broadcom 4312. I just put the WiFi firmware files in place and was able to activate the broadcom sta drivers. [15:07] Mike_lifeguard, I think you can use ubuntuzilla script to install older firefox versions.. [15:07] WilliamC: i see, yeah theres a native linux game [15:07] flan_suse: some user-settings could be conflicting with some system-wide settings specified there [15:07] flan_suse-> is there like a /etc/wicd.conf file? or does /etc/NetworkManager/*.conf file? [15:07] hey i need help [15:07] plugh: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) [15:07] saji: What is that?

[15:07] hi [15:07] <[manas]> grawity, thanks works good [15:07] ActionParsnip1, any codec pack for ubuntu? [15:07] n8tuser, what do you mean? [15:07] Marchingknight11: ok, same device I have. Have you run the process to extract the WiFi firmware? [15:07] . [15:07] my windows system has wiped out grub. what can I do ? [15:08] Mike_lifeguard, Its a pyhton script available for install via synaptic itself... [15:08] Plugh-> curious where did you put that firmware file? at /lib/firmware? [15:08] ActionParsnip1, i need to play avi mkv flv etc. [15:08] san2345: you mean codecs for mp3/divx etc?

(on karmic) [15:08] yup [15:08] plugh: how do i do that [15:08] Sound comes from both the notebooks default speakers and the headphones when the jack is put in [15:08] can anyone help [15:08] flan_suse-> is there like a /etc/wicd.conf file? or does /etc/NetworkManager/*.conf file? does these files exist? [15:08] I could access a cd driver over the Network, can I run some cd from there?

[15:08] WilliamC: i'm suprised too [15:08] hi how to i change the encoding of a txt with kate? [15:08] n8tuser, it's a per-user setting, so the nm settings are in ~/ for me. [15:08] rafa_nunes-> what do you mean? can you elaborate a little bit? [15:08] ActionParsnip1, maybe it does and I just wasn't looking [15:08] saji: I don't see it. [15:08] Mike_lifeguard, You can use it to compile your own Firefox any version, usually newest version, but you can use it for installing older versions too... [15:09] Marchingknight11: what ubuntu you have [15:09] crypto_: remove them and put them in again [15:09] First of all 9.10 is awesome! It boots really quickly. [15:09] However, recently (near the end of 9.04), my wireless stopped working (wireless is "Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)"). I tried downloading the driver via the instructions on the Atheros site, but nothing worked. [15:09] Any ideas? Thanks. [15:09] ubuntu_giant: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [15:09] hey [15:09] WilliamC: could it be that my graphic card is bad? [15:09] ptn107: 9.10 just installed last night [15:09] crypto_: i have the same problem, when waking up from suspend mode [15:09] boscop, is the driver installed? [15:09] n8tuser: I'm trying to do a fresh install 9.10, but I does not have a cd driver in my computer. [15:09] flan_suse-> i doubt it, a nic or managing a nic is a system resource, not a per user kind of thing, thats why one has to sudo or have root priviledge to modify such [15:09] still the same problem [15:09] i put it in the sound coming from both [15:10] Shockrates: File|Save As..., and choose a different encoding from the dropdown at the bottom [15:10] crypto_: usually unplugging and plugging in again works for me [15:10] the update manager doesnt even appear when there are updates in karmic. its ridiculous. isn't there a better way? [15:10] headphone and default speakers [15:10] saji: Yes, but I would need the script itself first :) [15:10] doesnt work [15:10] :( [15:10] can any1 post the link to that ext4 large files bug? [15:10] crypto_: mhhh ... strange ... [15:10] rafa_nunes-> and you are trying to do what now? pxe install or network install? [15:10] WilliamC: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) [15:10] gribouille: Boot from a livecd and re-install grub from there would be one option [15:10] geiaaa [15:10] I wanted to test it [15:10] there was no sound in headphones at all in 9.04 [15:10] kanas ellhnas? [15:10] boscop, that might be the problem, I'm not sure [15:10] hey guys when i right click on avi file i can creat rar file when i click on iso file i can not creat rar file why is that can i rar .iso file [15:10] Mike_lifeguard, Isn't 'UbuntuZilla' there is Synaptic Karmic repository? [15:10] n8tuser: I did the upgrade from 9.0.4 and a lot of things just stop. Can I access a cd driver in the network to start the fresh install?

Fresh this morning. *Ubuntu* configured grub2 to search for the grub root by uuid. [15:37] ActionParsnip1, one problem... the keyservers don't 'rsync' when the damn keyserver.ubuntu.com is down :-( [15:37] I have verified that is the correct uuid. === PacketCollision is now known as PC|Away [15:37] It fails to find it. [15:37] n8tuser: hi, in shutdown ou reboot system [15:37] erUSUL, okay, thanks. Maybe the packages aren't in the karmic repositories yet.. [15:38] carresmd: true, could ask in #MOTU [15:38] erUSUL: tucan has gui?

[15:39] ext4 bug is real? [15:39] I have not mentioned windows at all [15:39] Does anyone know if the version of rapidSVN in the 9.10 repos is broken. I keep getting an error whenever I try to do a check out [15:39] Is rcconf still relevant with upstart? [15:39] n8tuser: I´m using LVM [15:39] gondim-> and how are you verifying these? [15:39] lazarus, are you sure it sucks ? [15:39] goodnight, i'm testing it now on several machines [15:40] n8tuser: free command [15:40] lazarus, for me atm it sucks but i think with a fresh install should work ok they couldn't put something that sucks like that [15:40] I am attempting to boot ubuntu, but this is only possible every other reboot, and then by editing the grub menu entry [15:40] So.. how does Karmic seem this far? :) [15:40] Swap: 0 0 0 [15:40] Q: In Karmic I have mounted windows shares through double clicking them in nautilus [15:40] ccooke: haha ... then i answered a totally different question SORRY :P I thought you were the guy who had problems to dual boot his windows 7 [15:40] everybody saying that it sucks Mike_LaMar [15:40] Mist__, [15:40] Mist__: s'ok [15:40] n8tuser: Swap: 0 0 0 [15:40] brotkasten: heh [15:40] but my /mnt folder is empty?? [15:40] it may be the case of a fresh install for now i'll stay on 9.4 [15:40] im searching a blank cd to do a fresh install but, Ubuntu is still real s.... to do directe update [15:41] how do i mount the smb/win share so i can access it through the cli? [15:41] sin7ax: you can see where stuff is mounted if you run: mount [15:41] ActionParsnip1, do the MOTU guys run the keyserver then? [15:41] Pretty good statements considering how it was back at 7.x :P [15:41] no, I'm trying to find out why grub2 (apprantely dreduncantly) searches for its root partition by the correct UUID and fails to find it [15:41] sin7ax: It mounts them using gvfs, so you'd need to look in ~/.gvfs [15:41] gondim-> i dont think that meant it is not mounted, use mount to see what are mounted [15:41] carresmd: i'd think they'd know who if its not them [15:41] I'm currently running hardy. I want to get svn 1.6.5, which is in karmic. Could I just change my sources.list, apt-get update, apt-get install subversion and be ok until this weekend, when I'll have time to do a proper distribution upgrade? [15:41] after upgrading to karmic my speakers keep popping, even on mute. has anyone found a fix for this? [15:41] i just nuked my ext4 installation and reinstalled with ext3 to avoid that data bug [15:41] CSWookie: no [15:42] hello. I just downliaded 9.10, and I am wondering how to get support for my Linksys WMP45G Wireless Card. [15:42] ccooke: ok ... sorry for that. don't know ... but as long as it fails ... my recommendation would be to use the old fashion style and put your partition numbers instead of uuids [15:42] blizzkid: I was afraid someone would say that. [15:42] Ugh. I am also typing on my Dad's keyboard, which is horrible. (It's his system - I'm upgrading it since I'm up atm) [15:42] ccooke: same thing [15:42] sin7ax: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=255872&highlight=Permanently+mount+samba+share [15:42] kevin009, its not for sure it is an ext4 bug yet [15:42] ActionParsnip1, it was #ubuntu-motu ;-) [15:42] kevin009, there are manuy other things it could be [15:42] brotkasten: that is not an option [15:42] CSWookie: you can install svn from source though [15:42] carresmd: ahh i see [15:42] ActionParsnip1, thanks anyway :-) [15:42] BoredKender: tried tweaking pulseaudio? [15:42] np :D [15:42] GHRockerTaps09-> try to boot from livecd and see if it works first [15:42] blizzkid: Yeah, I was hoping to avoide that. However, it's looking like that's what I'm gonna do.

[15:45] ActionParsnip1, stable it is [15:45] if i had to make a difference between this 9.10 (updated from 9.04 that's maybe why itsucks) and Windows Seven i know that i would choose Windows Seven but would prefer to be on ubuntu, hope fresh install will do the trick even if i don't know what could have been wrong i already made 6 updates since i'm on ubuntu 6.10 [15:45] sin7ax: yeah it will make a "folder" that links to the folder in ~/.gvfs [15:45] do i need to know the inode in order to do that? [15:45] sin7ax: the OS will think the link is a folder but its just a link [15:46] ActionParsnip: what's the command? [15:46] sin7ax: no, just run: sudo ln -s ~/.gvfs/what/ever /mnt/whatever [15:46] Hi guys i have updated to KArmic and i cant' load the os? Anyone can help? [15:46] awesome [15:46] thanks [15:46] ccooke: i know that you can use UUIDs and I know ubuntu does ... but if it does not work for you at the moment i suggest to use a workaround until you find the problem [15:46] How do I create a file in a folder that requires root privileges?

[15:58] dual, I may have had a different problem then. It may have just been my mouse going bad [15:58] ccooke: i can't say why it doens'tw ork, but obviously you want to stop the default behavior of it adding the 'search' line and specifying UUID's i would guess?

I upgraded a box to 9.10 which uses PXE boot - now it wont boot as long as I keep the fstab entry which mounts /home from a nfs share! It just says that it waits for the nfs-drive to be mounted. do I need to register nfs disks somewhere else now, not fstab anymore? [17:04] wsch, well i tried with opensuse 11.2 and had the same problem [17:04] soapy_illusions, in that case ##linux is also a good place' [17:05] sa [17:05] So who's having wireless problems again? [17:05] I just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 (i386). On boot, I get to the splash screen, it flickers black, goes back to the splash; over and over, etc. Any suggestions?

[17:06] gpgp: i traceroute my internal ip, but not showing my external, how do u get that to work? [17:07] How do I get a list (as text file) of programs that I've directly asked Synaptic to install? (i.e. I don't want packages that were only installed because they were dependancies) [17:07] My network manager keeps crashing frequently on Karmic. Any fixes? [17:07] akatsuki, it depends on your network/router setup [17:07] i get consistent failures when trying to update repositories on a fresh 9.10 cd install no matter what mirror i select. [17:07] i have a virtual drive, but my game that i run on wine doesn't recognize the virtual drive as a cd medium (the game asks for the cd). my cdrom player is slow so i get laggs in game. is it possible to fool wine into thinking the virtual drive is cdrom0 ? [17:07] mdmkolbe, I beleive there's an option to export the list of installed software [17:07] fluid, are you using wireless connection? [17:07] no [17:07] For the updates, try doing the upgrade using the alternate cd from the torrents. This worked for me. [17:08] anyone figure out how to get otr working with empathy?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [17:11] simplexio, basically I want to mount the cd directly on the computer for faster reading [17:11] Mike_LaMar, you probably haver a notification area somewhere else on your panel... [17:11] how do i install ubuntu server edition on eeepc 900 ? [17:11] mikechelen, that seems to be for servers should it still work no matter what? [17:11] mikechelen: its not exactly a problem [17:11] the "Ign" lines shouldnt be ... i just installed. it should at least pull the package lists once. [17:11] Can anyone tell me how to switch from the generic kernel to the server kernel? [17:11] simplexio, so I have the .img, i mont it into ~/virtual-drives/1 [17:11] mikechelen: well it is in a way [17:11] th1: okay, but how do I obtain it using the terminal? [17:11] docmax, you should be using the desktop version, or even ubuntu netbook remix [17:11] helix_: yeas, i totally understand your problem, and easiest way to get it working is get nocd crack so game thinks your cdimage is right cd [17:11] docmax, why would you put server edition o n an eee? [17:11] akatsuki, one solution is shown here: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Q_20997692.html [17:11] gOLDfeesh, it seems to be the proper way to upgrade via command line, otherwise follow desktop guide for gui [17:12] simplexio, the thing is how to specify where the image is.. it can't guess :p [17:12] harjot, nobody can help unless you say what the problem/notproblem is :) [17:12] IndyGunFreak, to habe a server? [17:12] have [17:12] Hi.I have installed ubuntu as dual boot with windows.now when i chose ubuntu in dual boot its freezes down like hacking but aren't working.

[17:13] docmax, that is probably a severely underpowered machine to run a server [17:13] simplexio, ok h/o i will try one of these [17:13] dbruns: did the box reboot or something? [17:13] i believe the Ign errors from apt-get are 404 errors on the repositories. but these are core package lists its failing on. hehe [17:13] helix_: but i much doubt that it work without nocd crack [17:13] harjot, ubuntuforums.org is also good if the question is long [17:13] guys, i have just installed ubuntu 9.10... i'm just wondering how i can activate my broadcom 4312 wireless === PC|Away is now known as PacketCollision [17:13] dbruns: is the screen still running according to ps aux?

[17:14] gharz, for some reason, it doesn't appear automatically, you'll need to open the actual app [17:14] mikechelen, i wasn't referring to the fact that it couldn't run the server software. [17:14] what is this ? Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead [17:14] dbruns: and do you see your session still going with `ps faux` if indeed it has not erbooted [17:14] module000: no it didn't restart [17:14] pjman: $HTTP_PROXY is honoured by many programs. However, for SOCKS proxies, there is only one way - tsocks or similar. [17:14] berzerker: what do u mean open the actual app?

[17:15] module000: yes it is still going [17:15] akatsuki, IP=`wget -q -O - http://dynupdate.no-ip.com/ip.php` [17:15] Berzerker: i already did it... it asks me to activate... when i click activate nothing happens [17:15] dbruns: then apt-get install screen and screen -rD to it [17:15] dbruns: maybe you could download the screen package manually, extract it and start the binary [17:15] mikechelen, i'm aware of that.. but that wasn't my point at all. [17:15] anyone? [17:15] gharz, you need to be connected to the internet [17:15] i can't apt-get install anything [17:15] gharz, connect it wired.

[17:40] Alien_Freak: just run update-manager and you'll be running the released version [17:40] koterpillar - Actually, if you notice, I did ask a question. It's a broad question. Does anybody have issues with fstab. Fstab mounts drives. It either does or does not. If I'm having issues, most people would suspect that it is NOT working properly. ;) Thanks, though.

[17:41] jayce, device ID, but everyone is different. [17:42] kotepillar - did you add your UUID entries to fstab yourself? [17:42] iholst, sorry, that should be 2.6.2, and 2.6.3.. i dunno what the prob was, it was randomly crashing on my laptop, but worked fine on my PC.. i upgraded via the pidgin repository, and it has worked perfect, go figure [17:42] im ashamed to specify its kind of private and embarrising [17:42] jayce, yes [17:42] sound doesn't work in ununtu 9.10 [17:42] How do I fix it [17:42] hi everyone, yesterday i updated to karmic and now when i turn on my pc it first starts normal but after a while it gets slower; and then after 15 or 30 minutes it shut down with no reason.

[17:42] koterpillar - I have 4 drives in my system. 1 main, 3 backups. I added the 3 backups to fstab, just like I did in 7.10, 8.04, 8.10, 9.04, etc. Yet they dont mount properly in karmic. [17:42] ...because it vibrates [17:42] IndyGunFreak : sorry, Im new to ubuntu and dont know much about it, or the programs [17:42] well, its freakin linux, if it doesn't work off the bat, im sure you could get it to work [17:42] I have upgraded to 9.10 but my touchpad dont work [17:42] hello can someone help me...

[17:42] derek_smart: sounds juicy [17:42] <[manas]> th1 disabled same shi.. [17:42] derek_smart, it probably only uses power from the USB so it doesn't need a driver [17:42] koterpillar - when I try to access the "mounted" drives, it errors out and sa ys only root can mount these devices. [17:42] cant one use windows share name e.g. //server/folder instead of //ip/folder when mounting with cifs under ubuntu ?? [17:43] derek_smart, if ther eis no software that goes with it, it should work. the usb still outputs the same voltage regardless [17:43] DopeGhoti: getting : Err http://in.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty-updates Release [17:43] jayce, what does mount -a say? [17:43] yeah unless it has roleplay drivers [17:43] iholst, oh ok.. no big deal.. i wasn't really looking for a solution, just couldn't figur eout why it worked on one, and not on the other.. :)... [17:43] shankhs: have you tried changing to a different apt repo? [17:43] koterpillar - gahh... I wish I could tell you. I'm at work now... [17:43] shankhs: the one you're using may not have updated yet for some reason [17:43] DopeGhoti: trying [17:44] IndyGunFreak : how would I change the icon of a launcher to one of my own pictures [17:44] ive been told that instead of drivers its all about the modules rage in linux, how do i find out if this dongle uses a module or a driver or a what the hey [17:44] hey ubuntu guys, I just installed 9.10, and tried Exaile. Great player, but if it's playing when I close it, it keeps going and I have NO IDEA how to make it stop. I've tried kill/killall, there's no icon, and running its own script doesn't give me any ui. [17:44] koterpillar - I was just trying to find if more people had this issue. I asked in here earlier and like 4 people said they too were having issues with fstab in karmic. [17:44] shankhs: also make sure your updates are set to normal in Software Sources [17:44] iholst, int he menu?

Can someone help me ¿+ [17:44] jayce, it's helpful usually. It either mounts it, or tells why it can't. And then syslog will contain the information [17:44] derek_smart, try a ubuntu cd-rom and use it as a live disc to see if it works? [17:44] Kuprin: look at the output of pstree -p; that will show you everything running on your system with the PIDs to kill [17:45] xangua, it probably needs activation have you entered your CD key ;) [17:45] ok ill report my findings [17:45] koterpillar - I remember it saying something in regard to only root can mount this partition.... [17:45] iholst, right click the menu, choose edit menu, on the left, choose the sub menu, then on the right, highlight the launcer, then click properties, then click the icon, then use the next window to browse to the new icon [17:45] plz help me fix dpi of my screen .. not of fonts i need to change the global dpi i used to change through add -dpi 85 to xserver of gdm but the new gdm properties has no x srver config and gdm.conf is far different [17:45] xangua: try running top in a terminal while it's on [17:45] th1: activation of what¿¿ i updated from jaunty [17:45] xangua, oh wait that's another OS :) [17:45] jayce, well, then you didn't write the line properly. Paste the line? [17:45] thanks Berzerker , DopeGhoti [17:45] xangua: look for processes which are taking much more CPU and/or memory than they should [17:45] xangua, it was just a silly joke ;) [17:45] .........................

[17:46] DopeGhoti, Yeah, I see the parent process, but killing it by number doesn't DO ANYTHING. [17:46] xangua, System - Administrations - System Monitor [17:46] jayce, yes [17:46] [manas], I don't guess it will help but you can try of course [17:46] dr3mro: try -dpi 100 [17:46] is geting slower, in any minute may shutdown [17:46] with no reason :( [17:46] Kuprin: try kill -9 PID [17:46] iholst, none of them will show up?. [17:46] xangua, try to run "top" from inside terminal [17:46] erana, where ?? [17:46] DopeGhoti, that killed it, what was that flag? [17:46] iholst, what menu item are you trying to change? [17:46] IndyGunFreak: nope [17:46] koterpillar - Well, I'm using the same fstab I've used in previous ubuntu versions... and it worked then but not now... but I posted on forums about this issue, so I can dig it up and copy the line, 1 second. [17:46] hello can someone help me... I have a ATI mobility radeon HD 3400 series and I cant activate desktop effects and I have done the hardware driver check. what can I do?

[17:46] IndyGunFreak: The powder Toy [17:46] Kuprin: -9 sends a SIGKILL signal rather than SIGTERM; it's a more… impolite way to kill a process [17:47] can anyone help with this: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libapache2-mod-php5: Conflicts: libapache2-mod-php5filter but 5.2.6-2ubuntu4.3 is to be installed [17:47] I made a custom launcher [17:47] ? [17:47] Kuprin: basically, "Die, now." rather than "please shut yourself down." [17:47] DopeGhoti, ahh, gotcha, thanks. Anyway, any idea what might be causing the exaile problem in the first place? [17:47] [manas], you can try with driver from Nvidia's website [17:47] iholst, ok, did you download n icon for it? [17:47] jayce, if it wasn't mounted during boot, there were some errors. mount -a will try again, after that you have to look in syslog [17:47] mathieu: is your card in the hardware compatibility list? [17:47] Kuprin: sorry, not familiar with the program [17:47] no [17:47] [manas] http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html [17:47] It didnt come with one [17:47] mathieu: try vesa for example [17:47] koterpillar - so just run sudo mount -a /dev/sdb1 /media/localbackup on my own in term and check syslog afterwards? [17:47] iholst, ok, did you download one for it? [17:48] IndyGunFreak, no [17:48] so what do i do if nothing is listed in Hardware Drivers? [17:48] iholst, well that would be the first thing to do,is download an icon for it [17:48] IndyGunFreak, what format [17:48] im shure its a driver... somthing .run [17:48] Aha. It seems when it's playing something from Unknown it doesn't like terminating properly. It's something plugin-related. [17:48] or use one of the default ones.. but it may not be the exact icon for that app. [17:48] jayce, just mount -a will attempt to mount everything in fstab (again). You can also try mount /dev... /media... , but i wasn't sure what driver did you want to mount [17:48] Seems I'm best off trying to get Audacious to work with Ubuntu >_> [17:48] iholst, jpg or png usually work best.. whats the app called again?

[18:22] is computer janitor safe to use in 9.10. i've heard that you should just not use it cause it might delete needed data [18:22] roy, you can have ubuntu automatically manage it for you, if you don't need to keep all 4 partitions [18:22] I need to change field "SECTION" for many packages. How can i do it? [18:22] erana: huh? [18:22] a black shadow is blocking my screen leaving me to forcequit...anyone know how to fix it [18:22] my belkin n wireless adapter doesnt show up in karmic and i have both ndiswrappers and ndisgtk and are working fine but still no wireless after i installed my drivers [18:22] ? [18:22] ripps 2 Hard drives HD1: Partition for ubuntu / Partition for windows HD2: Home Partition for Ubuntu / Home partition for Windows [18:22] joaopinto: he is trying to port a 9plan userspace along with brazil the window manager to linux i told him thats impossible [18:22] derek_smart, koala was the test version, is the current version now ! [18:22] Is anyone familiar with the error "Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1000.0".", I seem to be getting this when I run the eclipse program from an NX client. [18:22] joaopinto: thats a common misconception, the hurd has been in testing before koala [18:22] * tjuboy a [18:22] erana: ok I downloaded it but how do I get it to come up? [18:22] joaopinto: it is a micro kernel rendering [18:22] xanwito: try setting the overclocking keys in the bios, for example 400FSB Mhz multiplied by the procerssor core's speed [18:23] derek_smart, uh , what are you talking about ? Karmic Koala is Ubuntu 9.10, the current stable version [18:23] Anyone using VMWare Workstation with Karmic? I upgraded and now when I start VMware it wants to compile new kernel modules and fails [18:23] hi, info cat only gives manpage of cat, is there any package that gives the real info file, [18:23] xangua: be very careful setting overclocking [18:23] Defcon1: yeah, what I gave you won't work, because Windows won't boot from a slave drive. You need to trick it into thinking it's on a prime [18:23] a black shadow is blocking my screen leaving me to forcequit...anyone know how to fix it [18:23] ? [18:23] joaopinto: look, go to the koala ppa [18:23] joaopinto: launchpad.net [18:23] i donn't like ovberclocking :S [18:23] bsanders, run VMware has root [18:23] derek_smart, that is the context for the current channel [18:23] joaopinto, trying to install iproute2 .. got error as " arpd.c:19:20: error: db_185.h: No such file or directory" [18:23] * xangua wanwito is xangua [18:23] Berzerker: I want to delete all the current linux partitions. Would "automatic" be better or a manual one? [18:23] ermac0: why are you telling xangua to overclock? [18:23] ironfoot495: I forgot what you asked ? [18:23] derek_smart, Karmic is the current stable version, it was released yesterday. [18:24] joaopinto: the context is linux support do not tell me arguements to koala [18:24] ripps any suggestions? [18:24] derek_smart: the context here is Ubuntu support [18:24] derek_smart: please see the /topic [18:24] derek_smart: again, Karmic and Koala are _exactly_ the same release. [18:24] Berzerker-: he was trying to enable plan 9 support in linux userspace im trying to render koala [18:24] erana: how to get desktop on the new ubuntu 9.10? [18:24] #linux for linux support [18:24] a black shadow is blocking my screen leaving me to forcequit...anyone know how to fix it [18:24] ? [18:24] derek_smart: 9.10 is "Karmic Koala" [18:24] bsanders: you need to install the linux headers for your current kernel for vmware to complete.. [18:24] derek_smart, not realy, the context is UBUNTU support, not linux in general, for that please join #linux [18:24] Defcon1: just a sec, I'm rewriting a script for you. [18:24] derek_smart: stop trolling. [18:24] server [18:24] i just upgraded to karmic, and am finding alt+tab switching quite slow. any thoughts on what might be going on, or where to look? [18:24] bsanders: sudo apt-get install build-essential may take care of it easily [18:24] joaopinto: i was here before trying that [18:25] irondfoot495: If you install the x-window-system with apt-get you can add gnome or KDE [18:25] joaopinto: grep /etc/rc.d/ ? post the output [18:25] ironfoot495: what do you mean by 'get desktop on the new ubuntu?" [18:25] erana: I'm having a heck of a time figuring that out!!! [18:25] subbu: he runs server [18:25] oh ok got it :) [18:25] thanks, all, I'll get those packages and try again [18:25] i was an admin, but someone told me it isn't safe to be an admin and using the PC regularly. so i took myself off the admin group and now sudo doesn't work"daddy is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported." [18:25] i was confused with his question [18:25] a black shadow is blocking my screen leaving me to forcequit...anyone know how to fix it [18:25] ? [18:25] derek_smart: this isn't linux general support, this is the official support channel for Ubuntu Karmic Koala [18:25] ironfoot495: try apt-get install gnome-libs or gnome [18:25] Laserbeak: put yourself back in the admin group [18:26] Laserbeak, if you're the main user of the computer, being an admin is fine. [18:26] how can i fix overheating¿ updated from jaunty to karmic [18:26] IdleOne: that's safe? [18:26] erana: ok [18:26] and running irc? [18:26] shankhs: any luck? [18:26] h00k: im aware of the title im not sure why you imply im confused with linux main channel [18:26] exit [18:26] q [18:26] Laserbeak, being an admin group member is fine, being root is not fine [18:26] if i want to run all my wine programs as a different user, and to disable virusses, is it safe to the setuid option on the /usr/bin/wine file ? [18:26] subbu: /quit [18:26] oh ok [18:26] derek_smart: You had said before ythat you thoughht it was linux in general [18:26] Berzerker: What would be the ideal partitioning for 20GB space and 2GB RAM? [18:26] Laserbeak: is you want sudo to work you must be in the admin group. what is not safe is to run as root all the time [18:26] my belkin n wireless adapter doesnt show up in karmic and i have both ndiswrappers and ndisgtk and are working fine but still no wireless after i installed my drivers [18:26] DopeGhoti: trying its downloading a lot of files [18:26] Laserbeak, unless you stupidly accept a DCC transfer not knowing with the file is, and put in your password when it asks to run, you'll have no problems [18:26] Defcon1: okay, try this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/305267/ [18:26] shankhs: that's promising! [18:26] roy, do you need the other partitions? [18:26] a black shadow is blocking my screen leaving me to forcequit...anyone know how to fix it [18:26] h00k: ... please quote me on this [18:26] ? [18:26] hehe ok thx guys [18:27] shankhs: sounds like your old repos wren't updated after all [18:27] Berzerker: Yes, I have XP and 7 installed :) [18:27] how can i fix overheating¿ updated from nautny to karmic [18:27] pvandewyngaerde: yes, but try chown user:wheel [18:27] then g+x [18:27] erana: Isn't it :root? [18:27] Defcon1: that should replace 11_windows in grub.d [18:27] roy, I wouldn't have 3 OSs installed on a 20GB hard drive. [18:27] how can i fix overheating¿ updated from jaunty to karmic [18:27] hey i'm having problems with 9.10 and the ati drivers for dual head [18:27] xangua: nautny is NOT an ubuntu version, you are either trolling or the package has been compromised [18:27] xangua, I don't know how, but repeating here will not help for sure [18:28] erana: who is wheel ? [18:28] ripps if the windows partition is partition 3 do i need to change "drivemap -s (hd1,3) $root" ? [18:28] DopeGhoti: hey man this is what I got http://paste.ubuntu.com/305268/ [18:28] the offical versions are as follow Jaunty and Karmic and Koala [18:28] derek_smart: i am not trolling, i make a mistake [18:28] Berzerker: 20GB is where currently Jaunty is, I have 750GB in this PC [18:28] anyone here using 9.10 and ati and dual head? [18:28] pandewyngaerde: [18:28] DopeGhoti: I think I am missing something i donno what! [18:28] pvandewyngaerde: wheel is the root group sort off [18:28] ok, I checked and I already have build-essential and the linux headers for my kernel installed. I've tried running it as root as well, and it fails at the same place [18:28] derek_smart: Karmic Koala is *one* version. Karmic ≡ Koala. [18:28] !anyone | nhuisman [18:28] nhuisman: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [18:28] derek_smart: please stop giving wrong answers. if you don't know, stay silent [18:28] xangua: that mistake could've easily costed someone else's installation because eveyrthing one says is a point for reference [18:28] and joaopintoi repeated because i misspelling jaunty [18:28] IdleOne: prove me wrong idle, prove me wrong i have sources [18:28] ¿¿¿ [18:28] erana: i want to give it less permissions, not more [18:28] I've just transplanted a hard drive with 9.04 installed from one computer to another with completely different hardware. Is there anything I need to do in order to have Ubuntu check for new hardware and install the proper drivers, or will it do that all on its own? (ie new graphics, audio, network, etc) [18:29] IdleOne: ubuntu.com [18:29] mispelled* [18:29] b elkin n wireless adapter doesnt show up in karmic and i have both ndiswrappers and ndisgtk and are working fine but still no wireless after i installed my drivers [18:29] Defcon1: yeah, what your trying to do is remap the windows boot partition as 0,1 [18:29] after upgrading to 9.10 keep getting this error about failing to load the FastUserSwitchApplet.. did anyone else have the same problem? [18:29] derek_smart: prove to me your sources are correct [18:29] is it possible to use "Desktop Wall" from compiz or something like that without running compiz?

The ati control panel doesn't show an option for two monitors [18:29] icehawk78 check system options [18:29] Sashi1: if you mean multiple desktops, yes.

Audio does not work out of the box. Headphone does not work at all. Where do I find information how to solve this?

All the other drives are almost full :( [18:31] Scunizi: I think it might be for that. Anywhere I should look on getting that straightened out?

[18:31] I did, it says no kernel [18:31] erana: you told me something abput overclocking to be able to do that, am i wrong ? [18:31] roy, 20GB is fine, I'm barely using 10. 768MB of swap space should do. [18:31] derek_smart: Hurd is something completely different and offtopic for this channel.

[18:32] derek_smart, ubuntu.com [18:32] hi derek_smart: yes it is the same [18:32] shankhs: okay, I'm officially baffled, then :( [18:32] subbu: how would you contain wine ? [18:32] derek_smart: Yes. Karmic Koala is the successor to Jaunty Jackalope. [18:32] well then WHY THE hecks did he tell me it was two different one for laptop one for desktop? [18:32] Berzerker: Do you recommend creating a /boot? What are the "must-have" ones other that swap and root? [18:32] Is anyone familiar with the error "Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1000.0".", I seem to be getting this when I run the eclipse program from an NX client. [18:32] DopeGhoti: and I am feeling like a fool it was never a problem since 7.04 and this time its frustrating :( [18:33] icehawk78: boot first on the new machine and see what happens.. if it drops you to a terminal then .. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade adn see if it pulls in the needed packages.. editing xorg.conf can be an excersise in futility sometimes. [18:33] derek_smart, whoever did that does not know what they're talking about [18:33] derek_smart: without knowing who 'he' is what what precisely yo uwere told, it's hard to say. [18:33] derek_smart, there is a netbook version and a regular desktop version [18:33] derek_smart: you might be thinking about the desktop version and UNR [18:33] ripps so the grub2 boots from the /home hard drive? [18:33] i have 2gb ram installed. bios shows 2gb, lshw & dmidecode show 2gb, however when i check with free -m or top it shows only 1gb. [18:33] n8tuser: not in dmesg [18:33] any idea why linux isn't recognizing the full 2gb? [18:33] Can anyone help me? I installed 9.10 clean and all I get is the GRUB command line. "boot" doesn't work, says no loaded kernel [18:33] shankhs: no, you're not a fool; it's your computer that's being foolish ;) [18:33] and the grep is true however? moreso than the hurd ive been trying to render? [18:33] pvadewyngaerde: go to this link, scroll down to wine section and follow the simple instructions http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=518012 [18:33] derek_smart, regardless of the version, they're all karmic koala. There is desktop version, Ubuntu netbook remix, and 64-bit and 32-bit versions, but they're all karmic koala [18:33] shankhs: you could try downloading and burning a Karmic CD and using that to upgrade [18:33] roy, just mount it as /, everything will be under / [18:34] krankzinnig: try to install again? or would that be too troublesome? [18:34] I dont want anything to happen when I close the laptop lid. Since I have connected the laptop to my TV, I would like to be able to close the laptop lid without the picture on the TV going blank.. [18:34] ah well even i a puter illiterate know the difference between a laptop and a desk top [18:34] derek_smart: Stop talking about hurd. [18:34] ColtonLee-> what does lshw -C network tells you? can you post in pastebin the results? [18:34] Defcon1: well, it's configs are, but I probably loaded it's mbr into your 1st harddrive. Not too much of an issue, unless you remove the second second harddrive disapeers [18:34] I guess I am going to have to while I am gone, should I report this? [18:34] but the Power Management Preferences only lets me select Blank Screen, Suspent, Hibernate or Shutdown [18:34] Scunizi: It loads and appears that everything is fine, but the previous machine was an integrated nvidia, and the new one has a dedicated ATI. If the display still comes on, does that mean that drivers were updated and found correctly? [18:34] Amaranth: he is just trolling in circles. [18:34] it'd be a whole lot easier if ubuntu choose representative names for their releases -- names that could be reflective of the revisions, say, i dont know... something simplistic like 9.10 [18:34] I dont have the option to do nothing :/ [18:34] derek_smart, karmic koala is merely a codename [18:34] my sound suddenly stopped working on 9.10, any help? [18:35] Anyone? [18:35] derek_smart: "Karmic Koala" is the *codename* for Ubuntu 9.10. Is that what you mean? [18:35] derek_smart is a troll [18:35] he also left. [18:35] ripps ok, so is the code you gave me right? or were you going to change something? [18:35] DopeGhoti: ya thinking of that but gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" isn't working either [18:35] icehawk78: looks to be exactly what happened.. you might also look in System>Admin>Hardware drivers and see if anything is listed there. [18:35] a marroon one as well [18:35] Can I modify the directory name of ~/Ubuntu\ One and still use the Ubuntu One service? [18:35] Untouchab1e: blank screen should just turn the screen off [18:35] Berzerker, I think he "was left" :) [18:35] krankzinnig, if you can. But you should try to find out more about the error before filing a bug i think [18:35] he left [18:35] Berzerker: / and /swap? [18:35] Amaranth, yes, but it also kills the picture on the TV.. all I get is a black screen after closing the laptop lid [18:35] icehawk78: just try doing that on a windows system sometime.. ouch.. how it will complain === glebelg_ is now known as Glebelg [18:36] so could anyone help with my sound issue?

[18:39] is anyone else having this issue [18:39] derek_smart, the DesktopCD can be used on the laptop, its just a name [18:39] joaopinto: thanks.. i had quite a bit of trouble trying, in vain, to have the 5.1 working in other distros, thats why im asking. [18:39] n8tuser: 9.10 removed xorg.conf [18:39] boojit, yes, that is correct [18:39] derek_smart, if you have a low end laptop (ie. netbook) you should use Ubuntu Netbook Remix [18:39] boojit: correct [18:39] Amaranth, i tried, but there's nothing in the list! [18:39] boojit: Right, the live cd can only do new installs [18:39] Damn... :( [18:39] igama: then why did someone told me the unr [18:39] joshyfluff: what sound card [18:39] CPrgmSwR2-> replaced with what? [18:39] Scunizi: Yep. I was actually moving from a laptop to a desktop, so the "backup" is already made when I imaged the drive to get it onto the other hard drive. I mostly just don't want to have to reconfigure apache and ruby again. [18:39] BUT it did owrk fine with 9.04 [18:39] skysong, you could try with the livecd first [18:39] why isnt gksu "sh /cdrom0/cdromupgrade" this working [18:40] work* [18:40] Amaranth, should i reinstall the restricted-driver manager? [18:40] ellar: What video card? [18:40] shankhs: aha, I just saw that to do an upgrade from CD, you need the 'alternate install CD'; is that the one you have? [18:40] ah awesome. I figured i was dumb. So that's what you get for downloading first and asking questions later [18:40] icehawk78: don't blame you a bit [18:40] n8tuser: I don't quite recall but it was being discussed in #kubuntu [18:40] derek_smart, the UNR is for NETBOOKS, low end laptops, those small ones like Asus EEE. [18:40] skysong, so it whould work fine, unless there is a regression :\ [18:40] Amaranth, ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Mobility Radeon X300] [18:40] igama: i have a msi wind netbook not a asus [18:40] CPrgmSwR2, i have no sound any more, my sound card i dunno but i will find out in a sec, it should work as i have had ubuntu installed on this d610 since 8.04 [18:40] thanks joaopinto, IdleOne, Amaranth [18:40] ellar: fglrx only supports RadeonHD cards, you want to use the open source driver (which was setup automatically) [18:40] Following auto-upgrade, I have no video acceleration. Should I try it with no xorg.conf before doing further troubleshooting? [18:40] Somebody please tell me what would be the ideal partitioning for Karmic on 20GB space and 2GB RAM... [18:40] joaopinto: yeah;) doesn't think there.. ive tried 9.04 years after the other ubuntu i used.. way beyond my imagination [18:40] Anyone know what happened to the game freecell???? [18:40] zakwilson: If you don't use fglrx or nvidia then yes, try without xorg.conf [18:40] CPrgmSwR2-> generically is it going away from using X11 ? [18:41] boojit: you can pass the live cd on to a friend [18:41] so ill give it a go:) [18:41] derek_smart, http://www.canonical.com/projects/ubuntu/unr [18:41] ellar, your graphic card is not supported by ATI anymore, there are no more drivers to install. You use the ones Ubuntu already is using. [18:41] roy: 6 gigs for root "/", 1 gig swap .. the rest for /home [18:41] roy: there is no ideal. [18:41] roy trial and error to suits your needs [18:41] n8tuser: I am not sure [18:41] hi - which system (like clusterknoppix) would you take for a load-balacing-cluster of a few machines? [18:41] derek_smart, so, use the UNR if you have a netbook [18:41] roy, sorry, 19.3GB for / and 700MB for swap is ideal [18:41] roy, everything will be under / [18:41] igama: is it compatible with msi and asus? [18:41] igama, yes under 9.04 i had 3d accel and now i don't have so i want to find the right... [18:41] derek_smart, yes [18:41] Karmic: display dim doesnt work anyone knows a fix? [18:42] Berzerker-> not ideal, have /home in a separate partition [18:42] ellar: System -> Hardware Drivers [18:42] woble: intel graphics? [18:42] Is there an alternative to Alt+F2 to view the boot messages? [18:42] Yes [18:42] ellar, you need to make a special config. there are no more driveres from ATI for you. [18:42] n8tuser, unnecessary [18:42] Since Alt+F2 no longer works. [18:42] Amaranth yes [18:42] woble: is this a macbook? :) [18:42] DopeGhoti, is empty and shows nothing [18:42] igama: is it compatible with Intel brand graphics? [18:42] No, HP Compaq [18:42] xlq try ctrl+alt+f1 to f4 to see which console it uses [18:42] woble: ah, well it may be the same 'fix' [18:42] ellar, look in the forum or google for "Ubuntu Karmic x300" [18:42] someone shoot him [18:42] roy, I've got a 20gig / (over kill) and I've installed a lot of apps and I'm still only using 4.5gig [18:42] Probably since its a realyl general PC [18:43] derek_smart, the UNR is Ubuntu Karmic but with a special interface for netbooks. [18:43] Berzerker: If I allocate around 4GB for swap, would that be more stable/fast? [18:43] anyone know of a good wifi strength monitor? ... not just pretty bars but the actual signal strength? [18:43] ellar: have tried installing an updated mesa (3d stuff) from the ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates ppa? [18:43] I have a strange problem, i reinstalled my machine a lost an app i downloaded and i cant recall the name of it, it was a video audio capture utility, can yuo guys just start naming some off? i'll know it when i see it, it has a white little webcam icon if that helps [18:43] n8tuser: ok, right. Well, I'll probably disable it, since it just shows a useless white Ubuntu logo. But I can't understand this new-fangled GRUB configuration :\ [18:43] hi - which system (like clusterknoppix) would you take for a load-balacing-cluster of a few machines? [18:43] signal strength* [18:43] Berzerker-> not true, if you ever have to recover, having the /home in a separate partition is nice [18:43] Oh My gosh [18:43] woble: Try adding "nomodeset" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub and rebooting [18:43] i'm gonna try analog stereo duplex [18:43] igama: i have a msi netbook with Intel brand graphics is it compatible with the graphics sub-system? [18:43] This room is freaken busy [18:43] innomen: cheese is the only one I can think of [18:43] woble: oh, wait, before you reboot you have to run `sudo update-grub` [18:43] derek_smart, yes [18:43] n8tuser, I didn't say it was bad, I said it was unnecessary [18:43] last CPrgmSwR2 [18:43] errr. [18:43] xlq-> i dont know about the newest 9.10 am assuming you have a choice [18:44] igama: is it compatible with intel HD audio Realtek codec? [18:44] DopeGhoti, it was one not in the repos [18:44] Wil give it a shot Amaranth tnx :) [18:44] roy, so you can do 5GB for /, 14 for /home and 1 for swap [18:44] derek_smart, try it. [18:44] does anyone know where i could find an aexhastive list of webcam capture software? [18:44] grawity: what? [18:44] only one way to find out derek_smart is to instakk it [18:44] xlq: remove "splash" from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub and run `sudo update-grub` [18:44] can I load my nVidia GeForce drivers on ubuntu? [18:44] CPrgmSwR2: Nothing. [18:44] innomen, motion is good [18:44] hellyes, hell yes. [18:44] igama: I dont want to try it because first i have to know the compatibles [18:44] derek_smart, like i said, Ubuntu UNR = Ubuntu Karmic Desktop with diferente interface. [18:44] innomen: it's in 'universe'; have you that repo enabled? [18:44] hellyes: System->Administration->Hardware Drivers [18:44] igama: else i get problems [18:44] derek_smart, it is compatible [18:44] hellyes: That'll do it for you [18:44] There was an interactive `screen` program on Jaunty desktop. What package provides that? [18:44] Hey guys, I'm setting up a dualboot for Vista and Ubuntu. Ubuntu's already installed, so I'm partitioning a drive for Vista; it has to be Fat32 right? [18:44] DopeGhoti, no no, the one i want is not in the repo [18:44] derek_smart, try a live cd and see if it works or not [18:44] thanx! [18:44] igama: save yourself the aggravation, he is trolling [18:45] Amaranth: hmm, odd, it's lilo-ish now? :P [18:45] dragon: byobu [18:45] hellyes: update your system and look in System>Admin>hardware drivers and see if there is an Nvidia driver waiting to be activated. [18:45] i have loaded my nvidia drivers on xubuntu [18:45] Hey I got a dual boot machine and want to use a font that's available on the windows side but not on linux side. Anyone know where I should put this font in Ubuntu and does anyone know off the top of their head where windows stores its fonts? [18:45] i will look thanks fo the hints [18:45] MasterofPuppets: no, NTFS [18:45] Halitech, will it capture audoo and video at the same time? [18:45] is it possible to use the alternate-iso cd to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 *without* using the update-manager gui? [18:45] xlq: something like that [18:45] สวัสดีครับ [18:45] th1: i have to know first which one to try [18:45] ais523: Alright, thank you very much! [18:45] Berzerker: Would 4GB swap be of any good? And the rest / ? [18:45] Halitech, and is it gui === wertik_rus is now known as hmara-yshlepalo [18:45] using the now and they work fine [18:45] th1: UNR or Karmic Koala [18:45] MasterofPuppets, no, linux handles ntfs just fine [18:45] innomen, not sure on audio, I think its just for video and no, runs from the cli [18:45] sammy: You could add the cd to /etc/apt/sources.list manually but what is wrong with the update-manager UI? [18:45] roy: 4GB swap sounds a touch excessive, but it won't do any harm [18:45] Whats the ubuntu equivalent of, rpm -qil [installed_package_name], it basically lists all the files in a package thats installed on the system [18:45] i upgraded to 9.10 from 9.04 netbook remix, maximus is not maximizing the windows properly (i can still see the title bar at the top of each window), also, icons are really jumbled in the netbook launcher [18:45] which distri/system easily builds up a performance-cluster? [18:45] roy: 4 gigs of swap is overkill.. unless you're doing lots of video production [18:45] hehe then its not good [18:45] th1, igama , please ignore derek_smart he is trolling [18:45] derek_smart, it doesn't matter much as one can be converted to the other after the event [18:45] DopeGhoti: thanks. [18:45] byobu is installed on this karmic server, but the interactive thing wouldn't show up. ideas? [18:46] cxo: apt-cache -L pagkagename [18:46] amaranth I dont have an /etc/default/grub ^^ [18:46] Amaranth: I'm trying to upgrade an ubuntu-server install which doesn't have X. [18:46] joaopinto, yep just noticed that... [18:46] So things are improved with no xorg.conf (it doesn't take seconds for text I type to appear) but still no direct rendering. [18:46] roy, swap space more than the amount of RAM you have is not useful [18:46] http://pastebin.com/m5b18b8c0 <-- Xorg.0.log [18:46] ok, my sound problem is fixed. CPrgmSwR2, are you still having problems? [18:46] joaopinto: Alright, cool. Do you know how much Vista needs, ideally? I'm only thinking of giving it about 30 gigs... [18:46] jesus i couldent have picked a worse time, release yesterday [18:46] sammy: Oh, try do-release-upgrade [18:46] dragon: rename or remove your ~/.screenrc and rerun byobu [18:46] joshyfluff: yep [18:46] joshyfluff: yep [18:46] th1: im going to try and install a Lightweight system [18:46] MasterofPuppets 30 is enough for Vista [18:46] pvandewyngaerde:did it help? [18:46] thanks for the help guys, good luck :) [18:46] sammy: Dunno if it has a system for adding the CD though [18:46] MasterofPuppets, no idea, that would be a question for #windows ;) === Commie_Cary is now known as Lenin_Cat [18:46] roy: you want your swap to be greater than or equal to your amount of ram [18:46] CPrgmSwR2, PM me [18:46] derek_smart, then install Windows 3.1 [18:46] MasterofPuppets I run vista on 25GB [18:46] Hello [18:46] joaopinto: it is a shame that someone who has enough time to troll does not spend it helping others. [18:46] woble: How much does the OS itself take up? [18:47] Hmm. Ubuntu One hasn't worked once yet for me. [18:47] Amaranth: I'm not sure either :) thanks for that suggestion, though. that is the way to do it from a server install, but I was trying to download a torrent and keep the load off the poor, overloaded mirrors :) [18:47] ripps: rule of thumb, use 1.5-2x the amount of you ram [18:47] derek_smart, UNR stands for Ubuntu Netbook Remix, its for netbooks. The lates version of UNR is Karmic Koala [18:47] th1: im trying to install an Ubuntu Karmic Koala Lightweight Systems [18:47] MasterofPuppets roughly 10GB [18:47] I see. So 2GB swap would be most stable/fast? [18:47] joshyfluff: I used the beta disc to upgrade, so I have been with this problem for a while [18:47] xlq: try it with a browser and see if you have success [18:47] MasterofPuppets taking the error logs and other shit in account 15 GB [18:47] roy, you don't even need that much, 1GB will be fine. [18:47] anyone run 9.10 remix on Acer AO751h? [18:47] PPL pls remember this when helping someone with an ATI : ATI does not support Graphic card < H2000, there are no more proprietary drivers, So restricted drivers has no drivers for then. THe only drivers are the opensource that Ubuntu is already using. [18:47] Joshyfluff Hi [18:47] Quick question, I just booted up after a bad boot that froze linux to a black screen, where can I get error logs? [18:47] !who | roy [18:47] roy: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [18:48] Shikaku, /var/log/syslog [18:48] roy: swap should be twice as ram because when you hibernate it makes an image of ram in the swap partition [18:48] Shikaku, /var/log/ [18:48] igama, that started way back when 9.04 was released, you would think people would know by now [18:48] I play lots of HD stuff, and do multitasking, like downloading torrents, video chatting etc [18:48] woble: So if I want to fit my music and shiz on there as well, 40 gigs should be fine? [18:48] Shikaku, but if it crashed hard it may not have saved the end of the logs [18:48] hi [18:48] I want to play alienarena, but i'm on 64bit ubuntu. And it complains about missing 32bit libs [18:48] evenin' all [18:48] MasterofPuppets, it very muhc depends how much music and shiz you have ;) [18:48] MasterofPuppets reserve 15GB for the system and add whatever you need [18:48] Halitech: there are a lot of versions [18:48] roy, swap space only helps if you're performing heavy operations [18:49] roy, downloading a torrent doesn't do swap space useage [18:49] cxo, install is32-libs (I think its called) [18:49] MasterofPuppets just take into account you cant access linux drives from vista, but you can access vista from linux === juststopedforcou is now known as Dovydas [18:49] cxo get the alienarena for 64bits, or did you install with apt-get ? [18:49] woble: I'll just partition it to 50 for safety's sake [18:49] Berzerker-: that is not true, swap is also needed for hibernation [18:49] roy, neither does multitasking anything [18:49] DopeGhoti: there is no ~/.screenrc [18:49] roy: I have 1gig of ram, and I don't even use my swap, I turn it off most of the time. What you described don't use up too much memory. [18:49] Berzerker-: stop confusing people [18:49] Amaranth: thanks again. [18:49] derek_smart, alot of versions of what? [18:49] hello, there seems to be something wrong with ubuntu-restricted-extras / flash ... i can watch flash and all, but when i want to jump in the clip or change volume or something, i cant click in the flash window? [18:49] igama, i didnt realise it was in the repos, i'll try [18:49] Berzerker: HD videos + video chat? [18:49] derek_smart, ...I didn't say it wasn't used for anything. [18:49] woble: that's fine, I just need it to run certain programs. [18:49] Halitech: of Ubuntu [18:49] Eeep, I updated a few days ago (stable) just rebooted and X is a little broken, doesn't detect the screen size correctly [18:49] derek_smart, stop telling other people what stuff when you know next to nothing yourself and troll constantly [18:49] DopeGhoti: isn't byobu supposed to provide one? [18:49] i'm not sure how bad it crashed th1. it happens randomly at bootup, where it just goes into a black screen as if it's on a screensaver mode with the monitor off and no buttons work [18:49] derek_smart, I know [18:49] Berzerker-: well he will use it if he hibernates [18:49] igama, its not in the repos [18:49] derek_smart, I didn't say that he didn't. [18:49] Crumbs, looks like it might be working [18:49] For 9.10 live usb install, I want to set aufs and root fs as noatime, any ideas/hints/ptrs? [18:49] th1: swap is used for hibernation [18:49] roy: in fact swap just slows things down, it's meant to be used in case you run out of ram [18:49] derek_smart, try reading, thanks. [18:49] im on 9.10 btw [18:50] which distri/system easily builds up a performance-cluster? [18:50] cxo, apt-cache search alien arena [18:50] alien-arena - Standalone 3D first person online deathmatch shooter [18:50] roy, nope, video chatting is just internet. [18:50] Berzerker-: swap is used for hibernation it must be as equal or more than ram [18:50] karmic btw, and it started on karmic, never happened before in jaunty [18:50] amaranth I dont have an /etc/default/grub but I also dont have grub 2.0 (came from Jaunty) could that be the problem? [18:50] derek_smart, that's not true. [18:50] derek_smart, I know but "stop confusing people" is a bit rich coming from a troll [18:50] Berzerker-: it is [18:50] any one can please help me get firefox to see my plugins please? i am on firefox 3.5.4 and the guys from #firefox told me to speak with you guys due to problem with path [18:50] derek_smart, only if you're using all of your RAM. [18:50] ripps: So when does large swap actually help? [18:50] igama, how do i know which version that is, before installing it? [18:50] ripps, swap does not slows things down unless it's nedded, which means you don't have enough RAM :) [18:50] I have another more minor problem as well: synclient no longer accepts a RightEdge value less than 1751. It now claims: X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) [18:50] yancho: which plugins? [18:50] woble: ah, in that case you have to edit /boot/grub.cfg or whatever [18:50] I'm trying to add a PPA along with the PPA's key from a terminal. My works network blocks the traffic to do this so I’m trying to route my traffic over a SSH/SOCKS proxy. Earlier today grawity pointed me towards tsocks. That got me further as I’m able to retrieve the proxy nat’ed IP from whatismyip.com in the terminal window. The PPA / key add is still failing with “keyserver timed out”. Any ideas? [18:50] roy, lots of video converstions [18:50] can somebody tell me please how to fix the bug with the xubuntu splashscreen and gdm login screen that I get on startup after updating to Ubuntu 9.10 [18:50] Berzerker, he is in fact right that swap partition is used for hibernate [18:50] woble: don't remember the file name exactly [18:50] 9.10 Remix is running verrrryyyy slow on Acer 751h. Any ideas? [18:50] cxo look in synaptic [18:50] k [18:51] th1, I didn't say it wasn't. [18:51] Berzerker-: are you suggesting that he should keep tabs on his ram usage before hibernating? [18:51] Hey guys!, I am having a problem with my 9.10: when i enter the youtube , i click the player but nothing happens, i have the flash player plug in to firefox. [18:51] but is Grub 2.0 worth upgrading to? [18:51] Berzerker-: because thats not good advice [18:51] derek_smart, you're never going to use 100% ram [18:51] how to install amsn [18:51] derek_smart, again, stop trolling. [18:51] Berzerker-: ...thats an assumption [18:51] pjman, I believe there is a problem with ubuntu's keyserver [18:51] xlq, no plugins found at all .. they are all in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and in /usr/lib/firefox* [i have some versions] all are soft linking to that folder [18:51] K4nkr0, sudo aptitude amsn [18:51] Berzerker-: using 100% ram is perfectly viable situation... [18:51] Berzerker: I don't do conversion in linux, but what if I want to record a live chat? [18:51] my dog chewed my bluetooth USB dongle into itty-bitty-bits, anyone want to put in their 2c as to a good brand that will play nice in both Karmic and Windows? [18:51] rogerrei1: you might have the plugin but do you have flash installed? if not go to adobe and get the latest .deb [18:51] Wheey! Ubuntu One worked! [18:51] roy: if your doing things that take up alot of memory, like video/sound/graphic editing. If you just playing multimedia, it doesn't tend to take up as much memory as editing them [18:51] derek_smart, no...it's not. if you use 100% RAM, you need more RAM. [18:51] robertj, MSI [18:51] `screen` is different from `byobu` now. Anyone aware of this change? Any documentation? === PHANTOM is now known as Black_Phantom\ [18:52] Berzerker-: fact is that swap must be as large as ram to guarantee proper hibernation [18:52] derek_smart, I have 2GB of RAM and 500MB of swap, and my hibernate works fine all the time. [18:52] Berzerker-: that doesnt keep him from using it to that extent [18:52] derek_smart, bull shit :) [18:52] Berzerker, actually linux tries to use 100% of your RAM, if is not needed for apps, it's used for caching :) [18:52] derek_smart, again, stop trolling thanks. [18:52] th1, know if it is generally available retail anywhere in the US? [18:52] dragon: how can I help you with byobu? [18:52] if i want to install ubuntu 9.10 but i want to have grub ONLY on my partition, and start grub with BCD, how would i do it? [18:52] joaopinto, sure, but caching isn't used in hibernation [18:52] i tried just selecting my partition at the last window you get [18:52] Berzerker-: suggesting that he should buy more ram instead of increasing swap is kinda not productive [18:52] when installing [18:52] robertj, no I'm in Europe but a google products search should find one [18:52] ripps: I do do photo editing... on multi-layered RAW files [18:52] but that doesnt weem to work [18:52] joaopinto: thanks! Is there a way to query the keyserver from a browser to see if it's up or does it not accept browser traffic? [18:52] Berzerker: He will disagree with you until he is wrong then agree with you until you are wrong and never stop until you stop feeding him [18:52] pjman: Use pool.sks-keyservers.net [18:52] derek_smart, again, stop trolling thanks. [18:52] wsch, do you have multiple hard drives? [18:52] pjman, no idea, just saw another people complaining about the keyserver === Black_Phantom\ is now known as Black_Phantom [18:52] dragon: screen can be called the vanilla of byoubu. byoubo is just a complex screen setup [18:52] IdleOne, I'll just keep telling him that [18:53] Berzerker-: read the hibernation documentation you are clearly the one trolling because swap and hibernation works this way [18:53] derek_smart, again you are wrong. I even disable swap on some computers. more ram is the best solution [18:53] derek_smart, again, stop trolling thanks. [18:53] why don't you just ban him [18:53] can somebody try printing from flash ? does it show printers ? [18:53] igama: we are talking about hibernation [18:53] grawity: great - I'll try that. BTW - tsocks is a neat tool. Thanks again! [18:53] roy: yes, so having some swap on hand is probably a good idea [18:53] derek_smart, you're pulling things out of your ass, derek_smart, again, stop trolling thanks. [18:53] pjman, http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/ , but hum, it looks up to me [18:53] Shikaku, nope just one, this is a laptop [18:53] Shikaku, AHCI is turned on should that mather [18:53] Berzerker-: it is a fact that the compressed hibernation image resides on swap... [18:54] Berzerker-: unless you use tuxonice but that requires patching the kernel [18:54] derek_smart-> look into tmpfs.. this may give you a clue as an alternative to swapping into a hd [18:54] leave it out derek smart [18:54] ripps: So you think 2GB swap wouldn't be overkill? [18:54] please [18:54] Berzerker-: n8tuser hibernation does not work that way [18:54] !stop | derek_smart [18:54] roy: how much ram do you have? [18:54] derek_smart: NOTICE - Please stop this discussion NOW. See !offtopic for things that are inappropriate to discuss in this channel. Continuing will result in action being taken. [18:54] roy, not really... i believe the general rule of thumb for swap, is 1.5-2x your physical ram [18:54] ripps: 2GB [18:54] IndyGunFreak, that is a old rule. [18:54] DopeGhoti: I was trying to invoke `byobu` by running `screen`, and was completely unaware of http://dustinkirkland.wordpress.com/2009/06/02/byobu-2-8-change-in-launch-behavior/ . I think I'm good now; wouldn't mind recommendations regarding a usable setup for a non-techie friend. [18:54] wsch, can't really help you then... sorry [18:54] IndyGunFreak, swap more than the amount of RAM you have is not necessary. [18:54] n8tuser: hibernation image must reside in hdd not it ram... otherwise it would be suspend to ram [18:54] igama, which stills makes sense :) [18:55] Shikaku, no problem thanx fro trying [18:55] roy: I'd probably up it to 3gb, especially if you ever want to use the hibernation function [18:55] Berzerker, fine with me, thats why i said i believe... [18:55] anyway, swap sizing is a debaable question, let's not go over it here [18:55] roy, anything more than 1GB is not necessary. [18:55] Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen all the way from a stormy Pretoria [18:55] IndyGunFreak: I thought that too, but folks here seem to be telling me quite the opposite. I'm really confused [18:55] joaopinto: a sizable swap is necesary for proper hibernation.... it is a relevant suggestion [18:55] i figured w/ machines coming out w/ tons of ram, 1.5-2x was probably overkill for most [18:55] roy, 1.5x-2.0x again, is an old rule [18:55] rohow much ram have you got? [18:55] roy, just make swap however big you want, it doesn't matter [18:55] roy, 1GB will be fine, really. [18:55] joaopinto: and Berzerker- is telling people to undersize swap.... [18:55] Lol, cant install grub 2 because it depends on grub-pc [18:55] Can anyone tell me what is "Checking whether build environment is sane... yes". I laugh every time i see it. [18:55] derek_smart, again, stop trolling thanks. [18:55] cant install grub-pc because it depends on grub2 [18:55] afk [18:55] roy, how many RAM you have? [18:56] IndyGunFreak, yep, swap = ram is usually the normal rule these days [18:56] Berzerker-: would you stop spamming [18:56] igama, good to know. [18:56] roy: do you plan on using hibernate, if you do, your swap needs to the bigger than your ram, otherwise, 1gig might suffice [18:56] dragon: I just have an "alias screen=byobu" in my .profile. Also, wow, this channel scrolls fast :) [18:56] wsch: 2GB [18:56] roy: *don't [18:56] derek_smart, swapping is not just about hibernation, there are mutiple factors for swap sizing, again, it's debatablle and this is not the right channel for a debate [18:56] I'm not siding with, but I'm rather confused as to why derek_smart is getting in trouble. He's simply talking and giving alternatives. [18:56] why did he put memory in his ass [18:56] roy, then i would use 3GB SWAP, personally [18:56] how can i install medibuntu. i already add the sources. thanks [18:56] joaopinto: i realize that swap isnt just about hibernation, but it must be big enough for it to allow hibernation... he is suggesting the opposite [18:56] roy, truthfully, i agree w/ wsch [18:56] roy, i would recommend at least 2GB [18:56] petsounds: medibuntu provides many packages, which one do you want? [18:57] DopeGhoti: yep it's fast [18:57] !medibuntu [18:57] medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [18:57] why don't a op ban him [18:57] derek_smart: I have a system with 2GB of RAM and 512MB of swap. And it can hibernate. So you are demonstrably wrong here. [18:57] joaopinto: this is the support channel. as such, lets avoid breaking peoples hibernate functions [18:57] DopeGhoti: maybe because you're not actually using more than 512Mb [18:57] okay so, on koala. I attempted to move the window with alt+mouseclick. it seems I hit the windows key instead, and it zooooomed way way in instead [18:57] roy, are you severely low on disks space? [18:57] how do you.... unzoom? [18:57] Well, I think 2GB is the average of all you contradicting geeks. [18:57] DopeGhoti: /etc/sysctl has values for image compression... [18:57] gee whiz... the channel is motoring! [18:57] After upgrading to 9.10 my X server won't start on boot anymore. I can start X with startx though. Any ideas what's wrong? [18:57] DopeGhoti: they can be compressed under ram, but its not guaranteed [18:58] roy, 2GB would be fine, but since 1GB is not much these days... [18:58] G_A_C: the point being that "swap size must be ≥ RAM size" is incorrect :) [18:58] DopeGhoti: were you using all of your ram at the time you hibernated? [18:58] DopeGhoti: most likely not [18:58] roy: swap is complicated, and different amounts are need for different scenarios. [18:58] !swap [18:58] swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info [18:58] hey folks, using ubuntu netbook remix 9.10. I can't find the system..preferences item (i can't even find prefernces) to turn off the netbook laucher and get me to a standard desktop like in the last version. How do i do that? [18:58] derek_smart: the point being that "swap size must be ≥ RAM size" is incorrect :) [18:58] IndyGunFreak: 20GB to spare. 730GB too important [18:58] theadmin : i want codecs for 3gp video, if im not mistaken it's .amr. i search on synaptic then i install it. but still i dont get the audio. [18:58] Will this downlaod give me an alternate CD for ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download? [18:58] Hey..I'm having a bit of a problem. I'm trying to upgrade to 9.10 on my Eee, but there isn't enough disk space. Any ideas or should I just reinstall? [18:58] I just tried to upgrade my ubuntu server and this is what I get: [18:58] http://pastebin.com/m298e5028 [18:58] in the grub bootloader menu.lst, do I just change the position of OS's to determine which is the default? (ie, first booted) [18:58] DopeGhoti: not necessarily, you might get away with it 9 times out of 10, but it's that 10th one, where you're doing a LOT of work and thus using a LOT of RAM that's gonna get you [18:58] DopeGhoti: i was making that suggestion as a safe starting point, your usage pattern wasnt exploiting the safe net to its fullest [18:58] petsounds: Install... uhm, restricted-codecs [18:58] DopeGhoti: if you had been using your total ram [18:58] does anyone know how i can install tor on Ubuntu Karmic? [18:59] roy: ignore everybody here and just read this and make your own decision: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq [18:59] nick125, how short of space are you? starting with "sudo aptitude clean" may give you some extra space [18:59] which distri/system easily builds up a performance-cluster? [18:59] DopeGhoti: hibernation wouldnt have been a possibility [18:59] nick125: i would just reinstall. I just did that. Back up first of course [18:59] DopeGhoti: this is well documented in the kernel source code comments [18:59] G_A_C: derek_smart: If I'm using all of my RAM, I'm probably not at a point where I'm thinking about hibernating my cimpoter. *shrug* [18:59] th1: About 500MB short. I already ran aptitude clean and I only got about 250MB. [18:59] DopeGhoti: how about you give them a thorough read and comprehension session [18:59] I knew I shouldn't have gone for the 4GB SSD! [18:59] I have problem with adobe-flashplugin , not sound with firefox.. any idea? ubuntu9.10 [18:59] can I load Photoshop onto ubuntu? [18:59] ripps: Ok, thanks. [18:59] nick125, if you are looking to tidy up the disk I can warmly recommend kdirstat [18:59] !it [18:59] DopeGhoti, thats not the point [18:59] Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) [18:59] theadmin : if u mean ubuntu restrcited extras then i have installing it [18:59] hellyes , CS2 works in wine [18:59] What can i use to capture audio and video that has a gui? [19:00] hi, does the desktop release of ubuntu 9.10 allow to use fde? [19:00] hellyes: Use Wine [19:00] hellyes, tried Gimp? [19:00] DopeGhoti: that is irrelevant. your ram usage pattern shouldnt be altered because of hibernation [19:00] It seems my direct rendering problem was the result of nvidia-glx-96 being installed and attempting to enable an nvidia driver along with the ATI driver. [19:00] What's the advantage of byobu over screen? [19:00] DopeGhoti: OTOH it's exactly where I might want to hibernate. Right in the middle of something, if I need to step away for a break or other reason, or I need to sleep and carry on in the morning, that's exactly when I would want to hibernate [19:00] sudo apt-get install non-free-codecs [19:00] nick125, especially if yuo have lots of stuff in your homedir but don't know where the big stuff is [19:00] derek_smart let it go [19:00] i hate it when people are wrong and start conpleining that someone is trolling [19:00] petsounds: No, restricted-codecs from medibuntu [19:00] xlq, any ideas please? [19:00] Idhan: did you install the adobe deb manually or did you install flashplugin-installer from the repos? [19:00] !capture [19:00] BAH [19:00] Sorry, I don't know anything about capture [19:00] DopeGhoti: and making suggestions on that principle alone is ignorant [19:00] on 9.04 how can i upgrade firefox to 3.5? i don't know which package to get [19:00] Damn, it's so noisy here. [19:00] wsch: All I was saying is that the assertion that you will not be able to hibernate if you have less swap than RAM is not completely accurate. [19:00] Rawr! [19:00] trism: repos [19:00] th1: I only have about 50MB of stuff in /home on there [19:00] is you don't know what you are talking about then for the love of god DONT help [19:00] ctmjr: you do realize that bad advice like this has consequences [19:00] roygbiv: firefox-3.5 from universe [19:00] hey i need some help, to get WPA work in 9.10, last time i got my wificard to work whit WPA was whit ubuntu 8.X. (and works great in windows) [19:00] theadmin : ok, gimme the cmd line, please [19:00] trism: should I do it manually? [19:00] woble: what is gimp? is it native to ubuntu? [19:00] ctmjr: on people that dont know better [19:00] theadmin: WHAT? [19:00] Will Ubuntu send a kill signal to an app that may be trying to eat up all of the computer's memory? Like, say, a ruby script that's filling up a hash variable almost indefinitely? [19:00] TNA5000, Is there no TOR package in the repository? [19:00] nick125, maybe you can expand your partition? [19:00] The problem now is that that package also seems to be the source for libGLcore.so.1, the lack of which is a bit of a problem if I want to use 3D pretty much anything. [19:00] ctmjr: namely just about everyone thats here [19:00] G_A_C ty [19:00] Idhan: nope, that should work [19:00] adac: no there is not [19:00] hellyes , gimp = linux photoshop [19:00] adac: Tor is not in repos anymore. (Security reasons.) [19:01] icehawk78: using ulimit can prevent that sort of thing from being a problem. [19:01] woble, untrue [19:01] hellyes , but its opensource.. and better :) [19:01] !webcam [19:01] Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [19:01] woble, gimp does not only run on linux [19:01] grawity, TNA5000 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR [19:01] woble, gimp is just a free photoshop alternative [19:01] th1: Nope. It's already at the full 4GB. [19:01] how do I turn on xmdcp in koala? [19:01] gimp is open source and runs on windows too [19:01] wsch , i know but this is easier to explain [19:01] adac: Which is Tor's repo, not Ubuntu's. [19:01] grawity, which security reasons? [19:01] woble, its still incorrect [19:01] nick125, ok it's probably going to be hard to cut enough out ;) [19:01] trism: which package should I install (from the repos) the nonfree , installer, there is a few options [19:01] DopeGhoti: Prevent it from being a problem, how? By doing the killing, or by preventing it from being killed? [19:01] grawity, Yea tors repo [19:01] maybe reinstall is better [19:01] woble: where can I get that? is it compatible with photoshop i.e. - opening/closing photoshop files? [19:02] wsch , could have said: gimp is an equivalent of photoshop that also works on linux [19:02] adac: no karmic repo [19:02] hellyes , it comes with ubuntu [19:02] adac: IIRC, Tor devs made their own repository because it's very important for Tor to be updated as soon as possible. [19:02] th1: That's what I'm starting to think....I guess I better get the USB drive out [19:02] hellyes, it is normally installed by default, look under graphics [19:02] hello [19:02] hellyes , start -> graphics -> gimp [19:02] hellyes: it's installed by default on ubuntu, but you can go to http://gimp.org [19:02] woble, it doesnt mahter its just that some people might now think that gimp is linux only, thats all [19:02] amsn can not install [19:02] icehawk78: ulimit can limit a user's processes memory or process count usage, for example, so such a runaway will be killed [19:02] grawity, Ahh i see. Of course that is a good decision [19:02] will gimp open photoshop files? [19:03] hellyes: I believe it will [19:03] woble, didnt mean it in a bad way [19:03] ripps: I think the FAQ is strongly recommending 1x to 2x swap is HDD space is available [19:03] TNA5000, already tried to replace jaunty with karmic? [19:03] hellyes, its opened everything I've thrown at it [19:03] wsch, i know ;) === oso is now known as Guest61985 [19:03] roy: yes [19:03] hey i need some help, to get WPA work in 9.10, last time i got my wificard to work whit WPA was whit ubuntu 8.X. (and works great in windows) [19:03] TNA5000, MEan in the repository [19:03] hi all - does anyone know if the desktop install cd of ubuntu 9.10 supports installation on an encrypted root fs (luks)? [19:03] roy, correct [19:03] my usb sound card isnt working in 9.10, the sound settings sees it but no sound how can i get it working? [19:03] roy: that much swap is undeeded [19:03] Can I have some help with Wine? [19:03] someone already installed Grub2 on Karmic after Jaunty upgrade without cyclic dependency error? [19:03] roy, most people use 1.5times amount of RAM now [19:03] myNickName: To setup luks you have to use the alternative install disc [19:03] roy: stop suggesting users should waste their hdd space like that [19:03] do windows device drivers work with ubuntu? [19:03] DopeGhoti: I'm actually trying to do the exact opposite. I've got a program that I want to have access to basically all possible memory unless it will literally crash the computer. I'm trying to map out the entire progression of a prng, so it'll need *lots* of memory. [19:03] hellyes, It will open them, but I`m unsure as to if it can save layer information as psd.... its best to use gimps .xcf format [19:04] theadmin : r u with me? [19:04] Amaranth: thank you! === cp is now known as Guest33632 [19:04] roy, unless you are rally short on diskspace or something i woudl recommend 3GB [19:04] What can I do if ubuntu picked up a too large resolution? - since setting the right res, causes funny lines to appear, it looks severely stretched... [19:04] swap? what swap? do we use swap? :P [19:04] adac: i'm sorry? what do you mean "MEan in the repository"? [19:04] for 2GB RAM [19:04] sd32: have you tried opening up the sound prefereces (right click on the speaker, hit preferences) and tried to enable all of the mixers you can, and crank them up? it's possible some obscure mixer setting is muted or something [19:04] TNA5000: Just read the page adac gave you. [19:04] woble: Try using aptitude to do it [19:04] TNA5000: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR [19:04] roy: just so you know, since have a large amount of ram, you might want to change your vm.swappiness (bottom of the faq) so that linux will use more of your ram and cache to swap less. This will make things more responsive [19:04] woble: sudo aptitude install grub-pc [19:04] derek_smart: I am not suggesting anything to anybody. It's on Ubuntu FAQ [19:04] hi i just upgraded to 9.10 and have VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) and am unable to get display settings greater than 800x600. Any suggestions? [19:04] ok will do. [19:04] thanks [19:04] sd32: System, Preferences, Sound and Click the output tab and select the usb sound card [19:04] i use swap for hibernation and VM [19:04] blue tooth not working after installing karmic kola [19:04] icehawk78: Interesting. You'll want, then, to tell ulimit *not* to limit you, but I'm not going to help set off a fork bomb in here ;) [19:04] How can I install Wine beta release on Karmic? [19:04] wsch: thats too much... ubuntu is being presented as an unbloated alternative to windows, stop making people dispose of precious hdd space like that [19:05] hello === jumpkick_ is now known as jumpkick [19:05] hello [19:05] Can someone pastebin their Iptables where ssh ip is blocked after a few tries? [19:05] why does ubuntu show the black screen after 1 minute idle? [19:05] will windows device drivers work with ubuntu? [19:05] Amaranth , nopez same error.. but browsing through bug reports atm :) [19:05] Ademan,shikaku thanks [19:05] I set it to 10 min [19:05] derek_smart, im just gonna ignore you, you are severily annoying [19:05] hellyes, no [19:05] TNA5000, /etc/apt/sources.list add those: http://pastie.org/677166 [19:05] does anyone experience connectivity with ubuntuone [19:05] ripps: Thanks, thats really great tip [19:05] hellyes, mostly no but some wireless drivers will [19:05] netbook: I use denyhosts, which uses /etc/hosts.deny rather than iptables [19:05] can somebody try printing from flash ? does it show printers ? [19:05] once this is solved there is only one more thing to solve: the frickin' drums on startup ^^ [19:05] bye folks, thank you for the help! [19:06] who invented these things anyways [19:06] jonaskul: install the wine1.2 package [19:06] DopeGhoti: Is there a simple way to at least tell if ulimit is installed/running, to see if that's what I need to look for? [19:06] wsch: eventually you wont be able to, since what youre doing is directly against this channels code of conduct [19:06] dupondje: ok, brb [19:06] nick125 is that better/worse than iptabels [19:06] After upgrading to 9.10 my X server won't start on boot anymore. I can start X with startx though. Any ideas what's wrong? [19:06] netbook: it's more automatic and does the job you want [19:06] derek_smart: I think you're a bit confused [19:06] hi, i'm running ubuntu 9.04 and my Software Sources looks like this : http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/214/screenshotsoftwaresourc.png , how should i remove that Blueman item from list?!(When i click on remove, nothing happens!) [19:06] icehawk78: ulimit should be installed by default [19:06] aha! Found it. So FYI, WindowsKey (Super) + mousewheel == Desktop ZOOM with Compiz enabled [19:06] adac, graphic card? [19:06] Amaranth: as to what [19:06] derek_smart: The Code of Conduct, for one [19:06] ubuntu 9.10 is really good, just missing some features in empathy, such as notify icon, possibility to turn of logging, and webcam support [19:06] nick125 i have a netbook and thus get multiple ips, deny host only allows a static ip? [19:06] Amaranth: ive been trying to render hurd since i got here [19:06] igma: how do you get proper ubuntu drivers for your devices? do I have to go search them all out or does it recognize them itself? [19:06] icehawk78: to check, run 'ulimit'; if it replies 'unlimited', fork bomb away :) [19:07] nicklas_: and file transfer support imo [19:07] anybody can help me to get 3gp audio work on karmic? [19:07] hellyes, most devices are recognized by them self [19:07] netbook: denyhosts will only block a host if they try to SSH in with the incorrect password too many times. [19:07] hello [19:07] dupondje, it dont have that either? [19:07] hellyes, the big majority of then have no problems [19:07] is there a list or wiki somewhere for all software? [19:07] nick125 how do i set that up. [19:07] igama, Well it is a persisten live usb stick I only had the "normal" drivers installed and on jhaunty it worked on everys amchine I've tried [19:07] nicklas_: don't think so :P [19:07] nick125 can you pastebin yoru conf? [19:07] DopeGhoti: Hm, I ran that and it did say unlimited. But the last time I tried the script, it still stopped midway and just exited with "Killed" [19:07] I need a hand of assistance...concerning wireless drivers [19:07] Amaranth, Thanks a lot! [19:07] Hi all... I have a Dell Inspiron running a Broadcom wireless 4312. Worked great under 9.04. Upgrading to 9.10 broke it. I've tried the fix of installing bcmwl-kernel-source... I have the Broadcom STA driver available and activated under 'Hardware Drivers'. I can see my local network, but it simply refuses to connect to it. It prompts me for the password.. I enter it... it doesn't actually connect. [19:07] hello [19:08] hi i just upgraded to 9.10 and have VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) and am unable to get display settings greater than 800x600. Any suggestions? [19:08] apua [19:08] netbook: I'm using the default config. [19:08] icehawk78: something else must be watchdogging it for you, then. [19:08] kuka puhuu suomea sisalla? [19:08] my computer freezed while installing a restricted driver for a broadcom wireless card [19:08] dupondje, :-( then why did they change? and have you changed back to pidgin? [19:08] now, dpkg seems screwed up [19:08] sampo_, I know too little about wireless set ups and driver issues ...howver...if no on here can help you may want to go to ##linux channel [19:08] nicklas_: sudo aptitude install pidgin ? :P [19:08] I currently have a very large swap, with default spwappiness. (60) I think that's why my ubuntu is rather slow. [19:08] how does one upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10? do you need a CD? or can you do it from command line? [19:08] dupondje: yes it does work [19:09] igama, should I try to install the vesa driver gaian? [19:09] *again [19:09] dupondje, lol yes [19:09] kisuke: do-release-upgrade from the command line should start the upgrade [19:09] I can't remove the bcmwl-kernel-source and the restricted drivers window doesn't work anymore [19:09] how can I solve this? [19:09] roy, how much swap does "free" tell you it's using [19:09] how d you turn off syntax coloring / highighinting in vim? [19:09] kisuke: You can do it without a CD. If you have a GUI, update-manager, otherwise do-release-upgrade (iirc) [19:09] kisuke: Easiest way is to use the upgrade tool under system [19:09] kisuke: or click the new version button in the graphical update manager [19:09] ubuntu 9.10 does not have drivers for my wirless card, what to do? [19:09] hmz Shikaku: it shows printers when you try priting from a flash page ? [19:09] hi, i'm running ubuntu 9.04 and my Software Sources looks like this : http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/214/screenshotsoftwaresourc.png , how should i remove that Blueman item from list?!(When i click on remove, nothing happens!) [19:09] sampo_: which card is it? [19:09] sad that webcams are not working 100% at kernel 2.6.31 [19:09] Hahahan: check your ~/.vimrc [19:09] domo arigato all [19:09] I have hp530 notebook [19:09] sampo try ndiswrapper [19:09] kisuke: Although, I've found it faster _with_ a CD, as you can grab the ISO from bittorrent rather than congested mirrors. [19:09] I think intel [19:10] yes, Intel [19:10] th1: What's "free" ? [19:10] sampo add the wndows .inf driver for your wireless device [19:10] th1, command to type in the terminal [19:10] Greetings [19:10] nick125: not blody likely, i have 23 gig worth of torrent going id be wating for a day or 2 either way [19:10] I downloaded the 9.10 version, but I was not able to use my wifi card...the only way to have access to net... [19:10] Hey... [19:10] Anybody know much about partman-auto? [19:10] th1, you highlighted yourself lol [19:10] roy, command to type in the terminal :) === chuck_ is now known as ctmjr [19:11] adac: grawity: Err http://mirror.noreply.org karmic/main Packages 404 Not Found Err http://mirror.noreply.org karmic/main Sources 404 Not Found [19:11] wsch, yeah just noticed ;) [19:11] what is benefeit of ufw logging? [19:11] any suggested drivers? [19:11] and where can i access them? [19:11] th1, i tohught you missed it :) [19:11] TNA5000: Use 'jaunty' for a while, until the Tor devs update their repository. [19:11] th1: System monitor reports 1.9MB of 3.8GB swap in use now [19:11] any ideas on resetting display to larger than 800x600? [19:11] ok, i'll give that a shot [19:11] roy, if it's only using 1.9MB it's not likely to be contributing to any slowness [19:12] Shikaku: its weird :x [19:12] cześć [19:12] grawity, Yeah listen to grawity. I'm sure the karmic repo will come soon [19:12] sg999: that's typically a video driver issue.. what kind of vid card do you have? [19:12] roy, i think your speed problems are totally unrelated to your swap, your swap should be fine [19:12] considering your RAM size [19:12] how do i check my vidcard and install the latest drivers for it? it's an intel card [19:12] VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02 [19:12] The links in the built-in help open very slowly, and pictures open like animations. [19:12] ? [19:12] Laserbeak, lspci | grep VGA [19:13] roy, you can always try to unmount the swap partition (sudo swapoff -a) to see if it makes a difference. you have enough RAM that it shouldn't break anything. [19:13] How do I install a specific version of a package? [19:13] Halitech: thx [19:13] crazy2k_, aptitude -t repository package-name [19:13] any one? [19:13] sg999: that had some issues with the 9.04 release but is suppose to be fixed in 9.10... have you done a full system update yet? [19:13] crazy2k_: either apt-pinning, or IIRC you can do something like "aptitude install package/repo" [19:13] yes just got done and have been *&^**!! wrestling with this for a cpl of hrs now [19:14] can gparted resize partitions? [19:14] th1: And the version number? [19:14] sampo_, well, i've been unable to find a "my wifi card" w/ Google.. so perhaps you should tell us what wifi card you hae [19:14] Halitech: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03) [19:14] now what do i do? [19:14] !wifi|sampo_, [19:14] sampo_,: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [19:14] I installed the beta, so it seems like I'm in the development tree (whatever that means). Can I get back to the stable tree now that Koala is released? [19:14] gh0zt: yes but you must unmount the partition to do so [19:14] how do you enable xdmcp ? the login prefs no longer have the option.. what ifile do I edit? [19:14] hi, i upgraded today from 9.04 to 9.10 and I seem to have a huge problem with videos, I cannot play neither avi nor mp4 with any of my players (vlc, mplayer/kmplayer) is this a known problem? is there a thread with a solution or sth ?? thanks! [19:14] i've even resinstalled xserver-xorg-video -intel to no avail [19:14] IdleOne: k, thanks [19:14] crazy2k_: you can't just pick a version number; you have to use a version which is available in a repo. so you have to use whichever repo has the version you want in it, and if none of them have it, you can't install it with apt. [19:14] differentreality, thats odd, i play everything fine. [19:14] sg999: open synaptic package manager and search for intel or 945 and see what pops up.. you might have to install the driver from there. [19:14] I just did "sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop" and I am still connected to internet :/ [19:15] IndyGunFreak, have you upgraded or do you have a clean install ? [19:15] crazy2k_, if it's not the latest version in one of your repositories you must download the .deb file manually and install it using dpkg -i filename.deb [19:15] yah, tried that [19:15] differentreality, always do a clean install [19:15] differentreality, you may need to re-enable the medibuntu repos and reinstall ubuntu-restricted-extras [19:15] gh0zt, and take a backup! [19:15] i share a connection by NAT, just so the computer in the living room can have internet too, there is no router, its just one machine connected to another. the thing is, the connection in the living room downloads too slow, while the connection in the "server" downloads fine, but i am not doing anything there in the computer in my room, if i could get all the connection speed from the server(room) to the client(living room) that would be great. I can't just [19:15] th1: I want a version from a jaunty repo. But now I'm on karmic. [19:15] Halitech, really, vlc should play those formats w/o medibuntu [19:15] Hi [19:15] IndyGunFreak, i c :) well so it could be the case that there is some old file or sth that is creating this problem i guess, but it is really really weird indeed === ubuntu_ is now known as StarMatt [19:15] differentreality: not really, more info needed about your issue. [19:15] weird thing is when i dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg i don't get any kind of dialog [19:15] i cant get grub working on my partition, i intend to start grub with BCD, that part works fine, only grub immediately gives me a CLI [19:16] IndyGunFreak, ok, missed vlc with the room scrolling as fast as it is [19:16] no error or anything that i can see [19:16] crazy2k_, which package is it? [19:16] sg999: I think you need to use dpkg-configure -p low xorgblah to make it ask more questions during the installation. [19:16] Halitech, lol gotta go full screen to keep up here.. :) [19:16] xjkx-> have a drawing of your network layout? paste it please, a pix is worth a thousand words [19:16] any suggestions? [19:16] http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3375995&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3375953&swLang=13&taskId=135&swEnvOID=1093 [19:16] wsch: i don't do backups, that's sooooooo 80's :) [19:16] IndyGunFreak, I am in full screen ~L~ [19:16] sg999: you may be able to do that from the rescue mode on boot.. I seem to remember there is a video reconfiguration choice there. [19:16] this the link for the specifications of my laptop:(hp530 notebook) [19:16] with 9.04 wifi drivers were ok [19:17] so, I reinstalled 9.04 [19:17] xjkx, you can setup QoS (quality over service) [19:17] sampo_, that still tells us nothing... open a terminal and type "lspci" no quotes.. then hit enter, and see how it identifies your wireless device [19:17] thnx lemme try that [19:17] sampo_, you may find the compat-wireless bleeding edge drivers can help you. [19:17] gh0zt, you are insane unless you dont have data on your comp you cannot loose [19:17] I have changed the swappiness to 10. Now I"ll reboot and see. See you guys later [19:17] n8tuser: what do you mean ? you want my iptables commands ? :P if you wanna know how the machines are connected, there is a blue cable connecting them, thats all [19:17] sampo_, http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download [19:17] roy, 10?.. 10 what? [19:17] roy: you can just do "sudo sysctl -a", no need to reboot [19:18] wsch: gonna google thanks [19:18] xjkx, no problem, you can probably also do it simpler [19:18] lspci [19:18] xjkx-> easier to discuss a drawing than what you have described (for me), [19:18] 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Memory Controller Hub (rev 03) [19:18] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) [19:18] 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) [19:18] 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) [19:18] sampo_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [19:18] 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 01) [19:18] Can someone help? do-release-upgrade is hanging [19:18] sampo_, are you retarded?.. i said your wireless device, not the whole damn lspci [19:18] Right after 'Checking for a new ubuntu release' [19:18] I've upgraded to 9.10 but every time I visit a page with flash, I hear a very loud "pop" from the loudspeakers. It's really annoying, any idea how to fix it? [19:19] n8tuser, its his modem that goes to a computer, and that computer does NAT to a second computer, if i understood correctly but im pretty sure i did [19:19] quentusrex: it may be that the mirror you are using is slow [19:19] IndyGunFreak: calma.. calma.. [19:19] Scunizi, lol, i was born calm. :) [19:19] th1: Will it work if I try to install a deb with an old version? [19:19] dual_, don't go to pages with flash? ;) [19:19] n8tuser, and the second computer has less bandwidth then the other [19:19] G_A_C, nope. because it is only on one of my servers [19:19] Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) [19:19] wsch-> a layout is much easier to discuss, words sometimes gets mis-interpreted [19:19] how do i install jdownloader? [19:19] all the rest of the servers works [19:19] but breathing requires a modicum of common sense, which he apparently lacks.. "A channel of 1800 people, so i'll post my whol lspci here..lol" [19:19] crazy2k_, it depends .. which .deb is it? [19:19] any clue? [19:19] G_A_C: I don't see any vm.swappiness there. Should I enter it? And "save"? [19:19] are there some drivers? [19:19] Hello, I'm on the live of karmic and I would like to know how to enable the Moblin interface (I'm on the desktop version), can you help me plz ? [19:19] dual_, did you reinstall flashplugin-nonfree? [19:19] Halitech, I know, I know, but stumbleupon.com still takes me to flash pages every once in a while [19:20] IndyGunFreak, be nice [19:20] Halitech, no, I just upgraded from 9.04 [19:20] roy: you can edit /etc/sysctl.conf to change sysctl settings, and yes; if what you want isn't there, then add it [19:20] ctmjr, i'm being realistic.. if he can't grasp that, do you think he's gona grasp any instructions? [19:20] dual_, maybe try (re)installing it [19:20] roy: I typed sysctl -a didn't I? I meant sysctl -p :D [19:20] roy, there is no need to adjust swappiness on a normal desktop system.. only servers with certain non-standard workloads may benefit in special cases [19:20] Halitech, yea, I'll give it a try [19:20] roy: to set sysctl stuff, edit /etc/sysctl.conf to add/edit the value you're changing, and then run sysctl -p to make it take effect [19:21] Halitech, hmm, seems like every time something is going to make a sound, I get the pop now [19:21] th1: python-wxgtk2.8 [19:21] Maybe it's a pulseaudio issue? [19:21] sampo_, i'm not sure if you can do this w/o an internet connection or not... http://jetpackweb.com/blog/2009/10/29/ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala-and-broadcom-bcm4312/ [19:21] th1, he has speed problems and thinks they are related to his SWAP partition :s [19:21] dual_, could be ... maybe check your mixer settings [19:21] hey anyone having cdrom trouble wiht the new update? [19:21] I am trying to resize partitions on a usb disk using gparted. I unmount the partitions first but for some reason they automatically remount during the resize operation so it fails. Why do the partitions keep remounting? [19:21] #ubuntu achieved a max peak of 1866 users by binaryDragon on Thu Oct 29 10:20:48 2009. [19:21] which distri/system easily builds up a performance-cluster? [19:21] Quick question, what do I search in synaptics to install java? [19:22] crazy2k_, from looking at the karmic version of that package it will probably work. unless some other packages on your karmic depend on the newer version. [19:22] Not sure what to install [19:22] hi, I am trying to install ubuntu via a live cd but when it comes to the step where I am supposed to prepare partitions it can not find my HD. When I try to mount (by right clicking and selecting mount) the HD I get nothing back [19:22] Acegi, sun-java6 i think.... there's quite a few packages for it.. [19:22] JonathanEllis-> because of udev, uses auto mount [19:22] Acegi, search for jre, you probably want the version 6 [19:22] !java | Acegi [19:22] Acegi: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository [19:22] Acegi: searh for openjdk or sunjava [19:22] when I wanted to start epiphany-browser in karmic, I got the "unlock keyring" dialog, but neither the default keyring password nor the "deny" button work. the dialog just keeps popping and prompting me for a password; killing the process(es) restarts the dialog and I can't seem to get rid of it. [19:22] crazy2k_, the worst that can happen is that that package and those depending on it won't work until you reinstall the karmic version, so it's worth a try [19:22] helloyou: is it a fresh HD with nothing on it? [19:22] ok thanks! [19:22] helloyou, yesterday someone was in here with the exact same problem [19:23] I don't have my own net connection, without wifi, I am out of the net, so when I install 9.10, I have NOT net [19:23] G_A_C: Did that. Terminal shows swappiness =10. Is it in effect currently or reboot required? [19:23] roy: that's it, it's in effect [19:23] I have net through wifi only...municipality wifi [19:23] Scunizi, no it contains files [19:23] (for what little effect it probably will have) [19:23] installed 9.10 and my compiz window open effects are choppy now. anyone know why? [19:23] sudo apt-get install won't work...:( [19:23] my system is crashing every couple hours. I've looked through the system logs and right before my system crashes this shows up in the syslog "wpa_supplicant[1545]: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS " [19:23] wsch, do you know how it was solved? [19:23] Hello [19:23] LiteHedded, what video card? [19:23] it's a sony laptop [19:23] not sure exactly [19:23] crazy2k_, download it from the bottom of the page here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/python-wxgtk2.8 [19:24] empathy is not connecting with msn, may it be an issue of server / port ?? [19:24] helloyou, no sorry, the person had to leave, it was very strange [19:24] LiteHedded, open a terminal and paste the output of lspci | grep VGA [19:24] crazy2k_, then save it and run sudo dpkg -i filename.deb [19:24] roy: calls to sysctl take effect immedietly, but to make sure, reset your swap. `sudo swapoff -a && sudo swapon -a` [19:24] k [19:24] helloyou, im curious aswell on how to solve the problem [19:24] hello [19:24] it connects if I use meebo.com web [19:24] how can i change my screen gamma by default? [19:24] Guys, if I label a partition "C:" in GParted, think that will fool Vista into taking it in as its own? [19:24] Nobody knows how to use Moblin on karmic plzzzz ? [19:24] i followed this guide in jaunty and it did fix my fn keys http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=97472 but after upgrade to karmic i can apply fix any more can you help me [19:24] !hi | Stavros [19:24] Scunizi, and the HD is already ext3 (but contains files). Should I format it, would that be the key? [19:24] helloyou, if you find a solution and im still here, if you remember you can highlight me if you want [19:25] Halitech: nothing happens [19:25] MasterofPuppets: Doubt it... Windows has its own disk manager, uses UUIDs. [19:25] wsch, i'll try not to forget :) [19:25] Stavros: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! [19:25] LiteHedded, did you copy and paste the command? it should give you something [19:25] ripps: swappoff shows a promptand returned nothing [19:25] helloyou: only if you don't mind loosing those files. [19:25] just comes back to command line [19:25] grawity: Argh. All I've got to work with are my Windows recovery disks, and they won't install without either erasing my entire drive or finding a C: drive :C [19:25] roy: give it a second, its clearing your swap [19:25] helloyou, thanx, if i think of anything that can help in the meantime ill let you know [19:25] Scunizi, I alreay have a backup so I'll try that [19:25] LiteHedded, ok, run lspci and use pastebin to give us the output [19:26] whoops lower case vga [19:26] I'm new to linux and need some help figuring out why my system is crashing randomly can someone help me [19:26] Halitech: intel 915gm/gms/910gml [19:27] integrated intel graphics [19:27] !intel | LiteHedded [19:27] LiteHedded: Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support.

[19:27] roy: also, with my 1gb of ram, turning my vm.swappiness to 0 gives me a good deal of performance, but if you ever do exceed your ram's limit expect your system to freeze for few seconds, as it needs to intialize swap (which it hadn't been using till then) [19:27] where to find broadcom drivers, and how to build it when I have no connection to the net?, that's the question [19:28] ok, I want to format a partition @ 103 GB but GParted only finds one @ 96GB.

[19:46] hello, i've upgraded to karmic and i'm having a variety of problems with pulseaudio, perhaps someone can help? [19:46] wsch: hrmm... sound outside my field of expertise... All I can suggest is booting a livecd and trying to reinstall grub... [19:46] Hi guys. I have just installed ubuntu koala om my machine. I think that my graphic card, intel g45 is givving me some problems. The computer went to sleep mode and won't start again. Also, I can't run vlc, presumable for the same reason. [19:46] Got dc'd [19:46] can anyone help figure out why my 3rd party apps like x-chat and pidgin will not launch firefox since my karmic upgrade? [19:46] Am logan__ from just now. [19:46] ejv: probably low-power [19:46] nick125: cool beans :) [19:46] my old setup: a laptop with intrepid and a server running jaunty [19:46] Scunizi: must be 64 bit [19:47] all audio was passed to the jaunty server to be played out through the speakers [19:47] See you guys. [19:47] qs, specify your problems [19:47] ripps, how? i need to make very sure its not installed to my MBR [19:47] innomen: won't they work with the 32 bit libs installed? [19:47] ctmjr, thats a great start, its not on that list, i wish i had any idea how rare that app was, it had a very professional looking page and the application was top notche, tons of options clean interface [19:47] hi, upgraded to karmik koala, and mysql won't start, nothing in logs :( [19:47] rumpel2, everything used to be fine, but now whenever i try to play audio, pulseaudio crashes [19:47] is there a minimal-system which provides networkboot for machines they cannot run it directyl but to start from cd/usbhdd...? [19:47] My upgrade to Karmic from Jaunty had xfce install gnome powermanager - now I have two power managers :( [19:47] wsch: ? grub can only work from the mbr... I don't understand how it can work without it. [19:47] adac: grawity: The following packages have unmet dependencies: [19:47] tor: Depends: libevent1 (>= 1.3e) but it is not installable [19:47] Hello. [19:47] it doesnt seem to be every time i play audio [19:47] So, does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to fix my: 1) Lack of audio. 2) Strangely colored video (as if a color channel was turned off) 3) My huge taskbar 4) lack of scrolling between desktops? [19:48] definitely when i use audio from firefox/flash [19:48] Scunizi, getdeb only has i386 of lives [19:48] btw, one more question, which package contains /etc/init.d/mysql ? [19:48] Is there any way to test my parallel port in Ubuntu? [19:48] ripps, i have had it like this before, only on a partirion [19:48] partition [19:48] other times at random it seems [19:48] qs, i myself have removed pulseaudio and use plain alsadaudio... runs finde, except i have to use the alsamixer in console instead of the applet [19:48] aibo: dpkg -S /etc/initpd/mysql [19:48] aibo: dpkg -S /etc/init.d/mysql [19:48] apprently i dreramed this application [19:48] logan1, try creating a new user and log in as him and see if that fixes 2) 3) and 4) [19:48] th1, k. [19:48] also whenever i play audio, local pulseaudio uses 99% CPU [19:48] wsch: grub installs it's config files to a partition, but ultimately it installs a hook in your mbr to load the files from the partition [19:48] logan1: Does your video appear blue-ish? [19:49] xlq: thx, I see it's mysql-server-5.1, but I've reinstalled it twice, still no /etc/init.d/mysql file :( [19:49] hey all [19:49] qs, try removing pulseaudio... apt-get remove pulseaudio [19:49] nick125, yes, it does. As if a color channel is missing. [19:49] qs, don't remove pulseaudio just yet [19:49] rumpel2, my setup involves sending audio over the network so sources from different machines get mixed together - for that i do need pulseaudio [19:49] can anyone help figure out why my 3rd party apps like x-chat and pidgin will not launch firefox since my karmic upgrade? [19:49] logan1: on what piece of software? most have an adjustment for color..

[19:49] I am trying to upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10 and is stays it cannot read release notes any Answers there? [19:49] Scunizi, Totem. It was working fine before I updated from 9.04 to 9.10 [19:49] wsch: than that means it installed to your mbr [19:49] I've just downloaded an Ubuntu ISO, but there's an md5sum mismatch. Is there an rsync server I can use to fix the download? [19:49] ripps, ok i just went to ask in #grub [19:50] ripps, its NOT impossible to have grub NOT on MBR [19:50] TNA5000, Well it seems that thaqt package is no longer available in karmic. I guess you have to wait until the new version of tor for karmic comes out then. [19:50] why does ubuntu show the black screen after 1 minute idle? [19:50] I set it to 10 min [19:50] ripps, its just RECOMMENDED to have grub on MBR [19:50] xlq: fixed with purge && reinstall [19:50] ooh, there is!

[19:51] any one can please help me get firefox to see my plugins please? i am on firefox 3.5.4 and the guys from #firefox told me to speak with you guys due to problem with path [19:51] does anyone know how to fix that? "Errno: 30 Read-only hard disk" on install [19:51] ripps, yes BCD is on my MBR like i said [19:51] th1, i have tried the various configuration applets etc but haven't got anywhere with them - any recommendations of where to go from here? [19:51] haven489: how are you upgrading? [19:51] ripps, also BCD boots grub fine [19:51] ripps, then grub gives me its CLI allmost instantly [19:52] haven489: make sure you're using a mirror that's working and up-to-date. Also, wait a bit and try again. I had the problem yesterday. I suspect it's caused by everyone trying to upgrade at once [19:52] Istarnes: in the update manager [19:52] qs, you say you are streaming audio over hte net? [19:52] hmm, pulseaudio is now using 98% cpu again, even though i'm not playing audio [19:52] yancho, are you using 64it? [19:52] if theres a error (i dunno) i cant read it or anything since its so insanely fast [19:52] th1, local network, yes [19:52] *bit [19:52] Scunizi, But I don't want to use an alternate fix to fix it, I want it to be fixed :P This is a terrible upgrade. :D [19:52] yes IndyGunFreak [19:52] hello,Update manager wont launch on Karmic terminal gives this http://pastebin.com/m55500963 [19:52] qs, you have same pulseaudio version on both ends?

The Grub directory exists, but I can't get grub to find /boot/grub/stage1 from the livecd [19:52] xlq: I have tried that but of no use ... [19:52] yancho, so you want to downgrade to firefox 3.5.3? [19:52] haven489: try doing it again later. it may be a temporary issue [19:52] wsch: I'm not familiar with BCD or how it might interfere with grub, so better to ask somebody else [19:52] th1, no but i don't think i had the same version previously [19:53] qs, but the newer version in karmic might well be incompatible with the other end [19:53] How can I enable mic boost in 9.10? (looks like a new audio control panel) [19:53] th1, hmm that's true [19:53] Istarness: ok i will wait, but i am probably just going to DL an ISO burn it and then upgrade with that. [19:53] Just installed Karmic Koala and my USB storage devices aren't being picked up; any chance of some help? [19:53] mMezquitale, anything goes - aslong as i see flash videos heh [19:53] are there some very serious issues between 9.10 and intel 855 graphics known? [19:53] ripps, sure thanx for trying anyway [19:53] haven489: use the alternate iso if you want an in-place upgrade [19:53] th1, though, it's not every case that causes problems - some are fine [19:54] Istarnes: ok [19:54] qs, I'd still try with streaming to another instance of the same version and see if it helps [19:54] yancho, so what youre trying to do is to see flash videos with firefox using ubuntu? === baskingshark is now known as paulus68 [19:54] th1, i've tried playing from spotify (wine/alsa plugin) and it's fine; totem is fine; anything with firefox/flash just crashes pulseaudio on the other end [19:54] stavros where you at [19:54] logan1: What graphics drivers are you using? [19:54] qs, they probably use some features that the remote end doesn't support [19:54] hello :) [19:54] qs, I'd try with the same verison on the other end [19:54] !ask | solman0 [19:54] solman0: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [19:54] th1, ok, what's the best way of going about that? are there packages for jaunty for 0.9.19? [19:54] logan1: nvidia? [19:54] th1, or packages for karmic for 0.9.14? [19:55] i want ubuntu DVD since mine computer has problem in reading CD. how can i get free DVD? where can order its DVD who does free shipping? [19:55] where did unionfs go with karmic? [19:55] How can I enable mic boost in 9.10? (looks like a new audio control panel) [19:55] mMezquitale, have flash and java .. coz there are no plugins at the moment [19:55] the ubuntu 9.10 iso are the new hybrid ISOs which can just be dd "dumped" on a usb stick to make liveusb? [19:55] qs, I don't think so.. definitely not the 2nd one because karmic uses features that aren't in the old pulseaudio [19:55] DISK HAS MANY BAD SECTORS <- does this mean I have to replace the HDD itself? Is there a way to fix this? [19:55] I would boot the other end from a USB stick or liveCD just to see if it works. if it does it might be worth trying to backport it (could be fairly easy) [19:55] is there a specific channel for virtualbox? [19:55] paulus68: maybe #vbox [19:55] unless you can upgrade the other one to karmic that is [19:55] binod: you can't get free DVD anywhere [19:56] paulus68: yes, #vbox [19:56] binod : https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ try this page. [19:56] paulus68: #vbox.. but what's your question? [19:56] yancho, I am not following, do you have flash and java, yes or not, what is the issue you are having with firefox under ubuntu? [19:56] hi [19:56] could someone help me with reinstalling the bootloader? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8199070#post8199070 Thanks! [19:56] mMezquitale, the problem is that all the .so are in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ but firefox is finding no plugins [19:56] Just downloaded karmic-desktop-i386.iso, and its md5sum is different to that of the UbuntuHashes page. Tried using rsync, and rsync thinks it's up-to-date. I assume the image has changed. How can I get an up-to-date md5sum? [19:56] I'm logged in a computer via ssh. How do I see if the upgrade to Karmic is finished? [19:57] strywgr: there is only for CD [19:57] wsch: !grub | phix ( these instructions work with grub legacy and grub2 ) [19:57] Royall: depends, but probably. Run smartmontools and do a test [19:57] !grub | phix ( these instructions work with grub legacy and grub2 ) [19:57] phix ( these instructions work with grub legacy and grub2 ): GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [19:57] hey guys [19:57] rohan_: oh i see [19:57] how do you install sh.file [19:57] Scunizi: the question is as follows I have a server running ubuntu and I want to be able to reinstall my server first virtually with 2 or 3 other virtual pcs which i want to connect to the server is this possible [19:57] Matisse, assuming the upgrade is running in a desktop session it's really hard unless you have remote desktop enabled. [19:57] Matisse-> use ps -aux [19:57] Royall: it's a bad sign. By the time you see this, the disk has already tried (and failed) to worl around the bad sectors by reallocating them. Do you have any valuable data on the disk? If so, back it up now/// [19:57] Right, making a new user only gives me more problems, nick125 === kingnerd is now known as [kingnerd [19:57] i connected my laptop to the second NIC port on my desktop (the desktop is what i'm on now). how do i remote desktop to it? [19:57] mMezquitale, the problem is that i have firefox 3.5.4 even though i downloaded from ubuntu's rep [19:57] solman0: What are you trying to install? There is probably a better way. [19:57] Jordan_U_, thanx [19:58] iv upgraded from 8 to 9, and now i keep getting a stupid popping noise via my speakers i dont get with xp and 8. only on 9.10. any suggestions? thanks [19:58] Psinetic-> both ends must have an ip address first [19:58] Hi guys. I have just installed ubuntu koala om my machine. I think that my graphic card, intel g45 is givving me some problems. The computer went to sleep mode and won't start again. Also, I can't run vlc, presumable for the same reason. [19:58] th1, I started the upgrade not via ssh, so would X-Forward still help me? [19:58] 9.10 is giving me giant grief. I just want to watch my movies and tv-shows damnit :P [19:58] paulus68: I just found this link that might help.. for headless running http://www.howtoforge.com/vboxheadless-running-virtual-machines-with-virtualbox-3.0-on-a-headless-ubuntu-9.04-server [19:58] n8tuser: uh....how do i put an ip to the laptop? 0.0 [19:58] Matisse-> all process have an entry, so ps aux and parse the results [19:59] Matic`Makovec, the only way it could help you is to let you enable remote desktop ;) [19:59] logan1, what is your graphic card? I don't think I can help you but I want to know if we have the same problem [19:59] logan1: so boot 8.04 instead... [19:59] iv upgraded from 8 to 9, and now i keep getting a stupid popping noise via my speakers i dont get with xp and 8. only on 9.10. any suggestions? thanks [19:59] Scunizi: thanks [19:59] Matisse, lsb_release -a [19:59] Matisse, that was for you not Matic`Makovec sorry tabbing error [19:59] wsch: I actually didn't mean the !grub for you, it's only the re-installing after windows that is applicable to grub2 [19:59] i can't start mysqld after karmik upgrade! [19:59] paulus68: np :) [19:59] anyone here use an xfi card in karmic [19:59] Psinetic-> you have to manually do it or if your other host has to serve dhcp on that port your laptop is connected to [19:59] yotam, I have an NVidia 9600 GSO. [19:59] logan1: If you have a nvidia card, start playing a file and open the nvidia-settings dialog (System->Admin->Nvidia X Settings) [19:59] N3M35I5: it sounds like PulseAudio going wrong. [19:59] n8tuser: hi how are you [19:59] N3M35I5, can you record the noise and put it somewhere online to listen? [19:59] program that works through For Java 2 [19:59] losha, Erm... that may be a problem :P Custom menu.lst and NO idea how to get to an old kernel. I also think the update manager REMOVED the old kernels. [19:59] paulus68-> am okay [20:00] yancho, try uninstalling firefox using synaptic and purge the software then reinstall it again [20:00] mMezquitale, sais it is karmic :) [20:00] rumpel2, its like the noise when you first turn your speakers, a slight pop [20:00] Hi I just updated to 9.10 Right now my theme still looks like the one i was using in 9.04. Is it possible for me to get the latest default theme without loosing my custom panel buttons? [20:00] mMezquitale, sudo apt-get autoremove purge firefox-3.5 right? [20:00] wsch: For your problem, when you run "echo $prefix" and "ls -l" from the command prompt grub gives you what does it output? [20:00] n8tuser: glad to hear that [20:00] What the hell, nick125, that fixed the colors. [20:00] Jordan_U_, it can actually be usefull for me aswell :D [20:00] Matisse, congrats! [20:00] dust_t: change theme like you would normally [20:00] logan1, Sorry, can't help you. not even the same card [20:00] Jordan_U_, theres no ls in my grub CLI [20:00] yotam, No worries. [20:01] Psinetic: use ifconfig [20:01] Jordan_U_, but i need to go for a moment, somone in ##linux is gonna take a look at it when i get back [20:01] nick125, But then when I close it and start the media file again, colors flip back to fail. [20:01] yancho: not sure what the issue is with FF but if you did the upgrade you might have some plugins that are causing you problems.. rename the .mozilla directory in your /home and then restart/start FF and see if it works then [20:01] gonna pastebin it all [20:01] EXA support got dropped from the intel driver and UXA is still not usable for some chipsets? [20:01] mage__, How can I know what is the default theme in 9.10 ? [20:01] logan1: downgrading isn't supported anyway. You'd have to do a from-scratch install of 8.04 from a live cd.... [20:01] th1, what do I do then with the remote desktop? I wont see the things which happen in the desktop session, right? [20:01] epinky, i did ifconfig, and no ip address is shown on the lappy :( [20:01] dust_t: theres one way [20:01] how do I extract .sh file? [20:01] yancho, "sudo apt-get remove firefox" and then "sudo apt-get --purge autoremove" and "sudo apt-get clean" [20:01] logan1: It looks like you're getting hit by a nvidia graphics bug: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-180/+bug/395476 [20:01] losha, Yeah, that's... so not happening. [20:01] Hey guys whats the default theme in 9.10? dust_t wants to know! [20:01] KaiL: Which chipsets is it not usable for? [20:01] Psinetic: ifconfig -a ? [20:01] Jordan_U_, intel 855 [20:02] logan1: :-). Have fun with 9.10 then.... [20:02] yancho, you can use synaptic to remove the software though, i highly recommend you use synaptic to remove firefox [20:02] mMezquitale: that won't remove the users configuration files found in /home.. [20:02] X-Server hangs at random times; very typical for the old UXA issues [20:02] losha, Thanks for being wonderfully pointlessly mean. [20:02] !torrents [20:02] Karmic can be torrented from http://hr.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your architecture. Torrents for other Ubuntu flavours can be found at: http://it.releases.ubuntu.com/ (CD) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases (DVD). [20:02] Scunizi, can you please show us how to do that? [20:02] mMezquitale, does lsb_release ... karmic mean than I can safely shutdown the computer via ssh, assuming the upgrade has finished? [20:02] nick125, Any knowledge on a fix? [20:02] what's better for a root partition: reiserfs or ext4? [20:02] iv upgraded from 8 to 9, and now i keep getting a stupid popping noise via my speakers i dont get with xp and 8. only on 9.10. any suggestions? thanks. the popping noise is like the slight pop you get when you turn your speakers on [20:02] logan1: i am not really able to figure what has gone wrong with ur upgrade ! [20:03] Matisse-> all process have an entry, so ps aux and parse the results <-- will tell you if it is done [20:03] Matisse: No [20:03] WOW OH! 9.10~! === phix_ is now known as phixxor [20:03] Matisse, it means that the machine has karmic installed. [20:03] epinky: http://pastebin.com/d409140ba [20:03] phixxor: thats a ymmv question [20:03] mMezquitale: there's a hidden .mozilla directory in /home that can be renamed.. once renamed FF won't see it. Use nautilus and hit ctrl+h to reveal the hidden directories and look for one starting with .mozilla [20:03] mage__: ymmv? [20:03] oh [20:03] !ymmv [20:03] ymmv is short for "Your mileage may vary". It means that someone else's experience with compatibility, performance etc. may not necessarily match yours. Also see !wfm [20:03] logan1: I dispute that. There's very much a point to my meanness. 9.10 isn't suitable for beginners or people who 'just want it to work'. It's one day out of beta and your expectations were unrealistic... [20:04] Matisse: If "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" shows nothing to upgrade then the upgrade is finished [20:04] logan1: It looks like you can fix apps that use gstreamer (totem, etc) by running gstreamer-properties and setting a noine-zero hue. [20:04] mMezquitale: if FF is open when you rename the directory you'll have to restart it for the change to take effect.. it will recreate the directory with default items. [20:04] yancho, look at Scunizi 's post, you can try renaming ".mozilla" under your "/home" directory [20:04] *non-zero [20:04] Psinetic: What about eth0? I mean you want to configure eth1 onl, don't you? [20:04] Hi all. My system video card fills wrong. The system doesn't response smoothly. I think the intel driver is wrong. Any ideas? thanks [20:04] Trying to install from desktop can anyone help thinkorswim_other_installer.sh [20:04] mMezquitale, im removing everything including the .mozilla directory and starting rom fresh [20:04] losha, I had no idea, my box said "Upgrade". I can't be expected to be constantly up to date and I had no more expectations than "getting an upgrade". [20:04] Matisse: The package that controlls the output from lsb_release is upgraded very early in the upgrade process [20:04] mMezquitale, is there a firefox profile issue? [20:05] nick125, Testing that now. [20:05] mage__: ok. I heard a long time ago that ext3 was better for /home because it was more stable/accessible, and reiserfs was generally better/faster for root partitions. If that's not true, or if it's different for each person, I'd like to know! [20:05] Jordan_U_, says its still locked... [20:05] yancho: you don't have to remove it .. just rename it someting like .mozilla.backup [20:05] epinky: eth0 is my desktop, which is connected directly to the internet. i have two ports on my NIC to use, so i plugged the other up to the other port, eth1. [20:05] iv upgraded from 8 to 9, and now i keep getting a stupid popping noise via my speakers i dont get with xp and 8. only on 9.10. any suggestions? thanks. the popping noise is like the slight pop you get when you turn your speakers on [20:05] too late Scunizi :( [20:05] how do i copy multiple directories using cp? [20:05] what they mean saying that 9.10 will break? [20:05] yancho: oh well.. won't really matter. [20:05] dust_t, yancho is having issues with firefox, he says he installed 5.3.4 but something is not working correctly [20:06] logan1: I fully agree with you. If this were a product sold on tv, it would probably be considered of unmerchantable quality.... [20:06] athlan, i think you can specify multiple dirs within {dir1,dir2} [20:06] n8tuser, http://paste.ubuntu.com/305335/ [20:06] hi, I just got 9.10, have 3 windows boxes, i read docs about setting up samba (looks like i need better docs) last month, networking , for me , was impossible, who is an expert in this area and can help me? havent installed yet, waiting on whoever :) [20:06] phixxor: ext3 is proven [20:06] Hello. I'm working on installing 9.10. Did GPT get compiled into the kernel by default? We're havingproblems getting 9.10 to boot. [20:06] how to install glibc ? I am getting following error : checking for as... as checking version of as... 2.20, bad [20:06] Psinetic: and you want to configure ip, right? [20:06] n8tuser, thats the ps aux output [20:06] nick125, grande. Now video won't play anymore at all. :D [20:06] N3M35I5, do you hear that noise when you first boot up? [20:06] Is there an alternate easy way to download the 9.10 update since apparently the servers are busy and the update manager is freaking out about release notes [20:07] only when ubuntu loads [20:07] We have 6tb arrays we're trying to use as boot partition. [20:07] phixxor: i wouldn't rely on ext4 for "production" stuff [20:07] logan1 what exactly did yo do [20:07] Any application to burn an ISO image to a CD? K3b depends on pretty much the whole of KDE, and Brasero doesn't let me choose the burning mode (TAO/DAO/SAO), so if there are no others I shall have to use wodim [20:07] epinky: i just want to be able to remote desktop it. :P but an ip would be nice :D [20:07] dust_t hows the correct syntax then? [20:07] sharp1: What are you trying to install? There is probably a better way to get it than compiling it yourself [20:07] is anyone else having a problem with elasticfox and UEC? [20:07] xlq: dd === crohakon|zZz is now known as crohakon [20:07] logan1: Well...that's progress....just not in the direction we want [20:07] zenlunatic: true. It's really really stable. I'm not even talking about ext4. But is reiserfs better than ext3 performance wise? [20:07] zenlunatic: you can't dd to a cd [20:07] haha [20:07] phixxor: for what? [20:07] nick125, Wait, no, fixed it. Forgot the autosync command thingy. [20:07] dust_t aah i see [20:07] I am unable to connect to my UEC cluster with Elasticfox. I've reinstalled twice and tried the 1.06 version as well [20:08] nick125, *autovideosink [20:08] !burning | xlq [20:08] xlq: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, brasero, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto [20:08] Jordan_U, I am trying to install glibc, iproute2 [20:08] phixxor: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ext4_benchmarks&num=6 [20:08] nick125, on the bright side, that fixed my colors. [20:08] logan1: glad to hear that [20:08] zenlunatic: for the rootfilesystem [20:08] phixxor: some people have great performance with reiserfs and some people have to run out of a burning building with it [20:08] O_o wow Jordan_U, lots of choice there! [20:08] athlan, if you had a,b,c as the dirs this command will work cp -a {a,b} c [20:08] anyone know ow to extract .sh fles [20:08] hahaha :) [20:08] Steve1972: thanks [20:08] projectm - the visualizer doesn't seems to "hear" the sound. at least its not i rhythm [20:08] logan1: rename ~/.gstreamer* to something else, like ~/.gstreamer-backup and see if that gets the video playing [20:08] yes, and some people can't use reiserfs for more than a few months without murdering their wife [20:08] losha, Well, it should have had a warning label on it, something, anything. [20:08] iv upgraded from 8 to 9, and now i keep getting a stupid popping noise via my speakers i dont get with xp and 8. only on 9.10. any suggestions? thanks. the popping noise is like the slight pop you get when you turn your speakers on [20:08] Is there a different channel I should be asking UEC related questions in? [20:08] xlq: cdrecord [20:09] solman0, You can usually view them in any text editor like vi [20:09] mMezquitale, Scunizi still it is saying no plugins :( [20:09] solman0, sh blah.sh [20:09] zenlunatic: superseded by wodim, which I mentioned [20:09] phixxor: for your personal machine or work or what? [20:09] solman0: usually those are plain text files with commands for the shell [20:09] zenlunatic: strictly personal. but I still wouldn't like it to crash! [20:09] yancho, what plugin youre trying to use? [20:09] logan1: and yet I don't see anyone else mentioning this. So, not *pointlessly* mean... [20:09] is there any intel support channel? [20:09] vi? [20:09] xlq: nautilus [20:09] iv upgraded from 8 to 9, and now i keep getting a stupid popping noise via my speakers i dont get with xp and 8. only on 9.10. any suggestions? thanks. the popping noise is like the slight pop you get when you turn your speakers on. it happens every few mins. Very annoying. [20:09] phixxor: you're not going to notice speed differences. build a raid if you want speed [20:09] nick125, Renamed it, video still plays. I had already fixed it. Forgot the audiovideosink command in gstreamer properties. [20:10] Steve1972: cool! so there's really not much difference between them, at least for compression algorithms [20:10] phixxor: or get a ssd [20:10] zenlunatic: you're not helping me at all. Nautilus uses brasero. [20:10] uiuit [20:10] mMezquitale, Scunizi http://pastebin.ca/index.php [20:10] Matisse-> it looks like in line 101 your update is still running [20:10] yancho: what kind of plugins are you looking for? you might have to reinstall them [20:10] zenlunatic: kk. Good advice. [20:10] dust_t whats -a? and is c the destination? [20:10] N3M35I5: did you look at pulseaudio yet? [20:10] logan1: So it works? [20:10] mMezquitale, Scunizi http://pastebin.ca/1649663 [20:10] solman0, no privating please [20:10] I am unable to add my UEC installation to the regions of my elasticfox plugin. Any help would be greatly appreciated. [20:10] nick125, That fix works. But without sound, watching videos is shitty :P [20:10] We've got a new IBM x3650 m2 with 6tb RAID and Ubuntu installs but won't boot unless we use the 9.10 install CD and choose 'boot from first hard drive' We're looking for advice.

[20:10] athlan, -a is for copying all the files inside each dir recursively and yes c is the destination.

[20:35] logan1: What about -c 1 then? [20:35] but nick125, I don't get any cards available for configuration in PA volume control. [20:35] Greggaz try grub-edit [20:35] nick125, same message. [20:35] norrec: I am not familiar with clonezilla. I do not believe partimage has a web interface, no. It has a command line and gui interface [20:35] can anyone help figure out why my 3rd party apps like x-chat and pidgin will not launch firefox since my karmic upgrade? i tried upgrading to 3.5.4 and it did not fix it [20:35] hi.. my usb webcam doesn't get recognised fast enough. I have to unplug and replug it everytime. [20:35] logan1: Anything pertaining to audio/pulseaudio in /var/log/messages? [20:35] nick125, how do I check? [20:36] Hi, I seem to be having display issues post karmic upgrade... how do I force xorg to use generic display drivers rather than openchrome drivers? [20:36] I was not having *any* issues with jaunty [20:36] norrec: partimage I think is a ncurses interface for cli access.. you'll have to read up on them [20:36] logan1: cat /var/log/messages and look through it [20:36] phixxor, http://pastebin.com/m4c59cc21 [20:36] i've been trying to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10, however it hangs when it gets to file 500 out of 1663, so I just tried to change to a mirror server ( mirror.cc.columbia.edu ) and an error occurred. the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 6AF0E1940624A220 [20:36] jrib, Scunizi alright, thanks for ur help guys [20:36] hey guys im having cdrom issues since karmic update [20:36] Greggaz check pm [20:37] *yawn* [20:37] demonspork: ok, and what tutorial are you using to install it? [20:37] Hey guys. I'm trying to install Vista, already have Ubuntu installed. I've got the disc in the computer but it won't boot from it; any way to force that? [20:37] while booted into a KUbuntu Live CD, i modified xorg.conf and restarted kdm. however, kdm didn't come back up. does something special need to be done? [20:37] MasterofPuppets, this is a ubuntu channel [20:37] how do you enable alsa? [20:37] MasterofPuppets ... depends on your computer... but press whatever button will take you to the boot menu [20:37] zleap: I know, hence why I'm asking here [20:38] then choose to boot from cd/dvd [20:38] MasterofPuppets: if you're not playing win games use virtualbox and install vista there. [20:38] Hey ubu guys, running 9.10 amd64 here and trying to get stuff installed on Eclipse. Problem: sometimes some of the buttons don't work. Clicking them presses them down, highlights them, and does nothing. Usually they work after that if I press enter. Persists over multiple known-good versions of eclipse from other systems. Probably Java VM related - any known solution yet? [20:38] My system doesn't boot...problem no karnel ..so how do I fix the karnel without loose my data ? [20:38] and why install vista [20:38] bright go to sound in the system-admin menu [20:38] Scunizi: Does virtualbox support iPod syncing? [20:38] phixxor, I am just doing those 2 commands, I had to sudo apt-get install grub first though because grub doesn't seem to be included on the LiveCD first [20:38] nick125, Erm, nope. [20:38] ok i really really cant do this on my own, i cant recall the name of the application, it recorded video and audio, i keep thinking the name was lvcview or uvc or something like that, it had tabs, and tons of options and a deb file, i need help trying to find a way to recall refind this application [20:38] need help cdrom not mounting [20:39] MasterofPuppets, why dont u just use a ubuntu based ipod manager [20:39] demonspork: I think your problem may be that grub2 is installed by default with 9.10 installations, and the recovery methods are completely different [20:39] I keep vista install on a second hard drive on this laptop just so I can continue to play games when I need to reduce stress. Battlefield 2 is so good for that. [20:39] innomen: Avidemux? [20:39] phixxor, I have done this so many times previously with Ubuntu, I am quite surprised this isn't working. I might have to get out an older Ubuntu LiveCD because I know their grub works fine [20:39] hello, i was getting a message "Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".K2 - Fatal Error: CHost::Init() - Unable to find a suitable FBConfig" so i installed mesa-utils and when i try to run glxgears i get the message "Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual" what do i do? [20:39] hey i just got my ipod working in ubuntu [20:39] the icon was a little white camera [20:39] phixxor, ooooh [20:39] works just like i tunes [20:39] norrec: none work unless it's jailbroken [20:39] E4rlGrey, it was a capture program not an editor [20:39] logan1: Okay. Let's try this, then. pulseaudio --kill then run pulseaudio -vvv and _pastebin_ the output [20:39] i have auto login enabled but still need a password for evolution, is there away turn this off? [20:39] has anyone installed jaunty on a power pc? [20:39] MasterofPuppets: yes if you install the version from virtualbox.. not the one in the repos.. there are further instructions to get the usb connection working but that better asked in #vbox [20:39] hi [20:39] i installed ubuntu on a separate partition when i had windows vista installed, and ive been using the grub bootloader to boot into vista/linux, but now i just upgraded to windows 7 and the bootloader is gone so i cant boot into linux any more... how can i get the grub bootloader back ? [20:39] demonspork: yeah, so if you installed grub2, you just have to use the correct grub2 recovery method... googling for it now [20:40] My system doesn't boot...problem no karnel ..so how do I fix the karnel without loose my data ? [20:40] MasterofPuppets, my gf used songbird to do it on ubuntu [20:40] nick125, yeah, that gives me a bunch of error messages. [20:40] MasterofPuppets, i know it has a plugin [20:40] someone here knows what it is, i know it [20:40] i just have to find them [20:40] norrec: It doesn't work unless the iPod is jailbroken :( [20:40] MasterofPuppets... I can also recommend songbird... pretty good program [20:40] nick125, After kill command: E: main.c: Failed to kill daemon: No such process [20:40] i've been searching for 3 hours [20:40] logan1: pastebin the output from pulseaudio -vvv [20:40] MasterofPuppets, well her's wasnt jail broken, it was a new ipod classic [20:40] round two... [20:40] hello [20:40] does anyone know ? [20:41] norrec: you won't need to jailbreak it in a vm of vista though [20:41] server online? [20:41] (pastebin it at pastebin.ubuntu.com and paste the link here) [20:41] ? [20:41] No command 'pulsaudio' found, did you mean: [20:41] Command 'pulseaudio' from package 'pulseaudio' (main) [20:41] pulsaudio: command not found [20:41] installer .sh file anyone familiar with this? [20:41] norrec: this one is a Touch, they use a different hashing scheme [20:41] i installed ubuntu on a separate partition when i had windows vista installed, and ive been using the grub bootloader to boot into vista/linux, but now i just upgraded to windows 7 and the bootloader is gone so i cant boot into linux any more... how can i get the grub bootloader back ? [20:41] solman0: sudo sh [20:41] anyone know why my keyboard volume thing is all slow now? (the screen pop-up with the sound bar takes forever to show and the volume forever to change) [20:41] nick125, did you catch that? [20:41] demonspork: this may be what you're looking for http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html [20:41] logan1: typo ;-) [20:41] [20:41] MasterofPuppets, well Scunizi says you wouldnt need to if u made a virtual machine of vista in ubuntu [20:42] "Landscape" crashed and i wanted to send a report on it (Newly installed Kosmic Coala) but i ended up somewhere i need to insert my email and password etc ???. Why, and was it reported ok ? [20:42] demonspork: if not, google is your best friend, and you can always come back here for help. Good luck! [20:42] ?join #linux [20:42] how do I force x to use generic drivers rather than openchrome? [20:42] nick125, >____> It's doing a bunch of things now. [20:42] hi, i am trying to ssh into my computer and when i nmap the port it is filtered. i altered iptables by adding a new rule to accept all traffic but still no [20:42] logan1: pastebin that output... [20:42] phixxor, I am going to have to redo my entire boot loader setup, because it appears that easybcd in windows doesn't know how to deal with grub2, which I think is starting my whole issue, [20:42] norrec: That's what I'm trying to do [20:42] thanks for the help [20:42] is there no default IRC client in karmic? [20:43] What is the right way to install ubuntu onto a machine I plan to reformat without using a CD (I have an external (USB) hard drive I'd like to install from)? Google turns up a number of different ways and I'm not sure which are out dated. So what is the "right" method for 9.10? [20:43] Scunizi: Is it in the repos? [20:43] MasterofPuppets, ah i missed that part, i thought u were trying to dual boot [20:43] or rather, no IRC client included in the default install, i mean [20:43] bostrt: did you install ssh on the computer you're trying to connect to? [20:43] nick125, http://paste.ubuntu.com/305362/ [20:43] anybody? [20:43] i'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 on an old Dell with the 32 bit x86 desktop CD burned from the ISO i downloaded from a mirror. Its not booting to the CD.. anything in particular I should look for? [20:43] it can't be that frigging hard can it? [20:43] Scunizi: yes an the .conf is configured correctly [20:43] pqwer1, tried editing xorg.conf? [20:43] i installed ubuntu on a separate partition when i had windows vista installed, and ive been using the grub bootloader to boot into vista/linux, but now i just upgraded to windows 7 and the bootloader is gone so i cant boot into linux any more... how can i get the grub bootloader back ? [20:43] MasterofPuppets: yes but that version doen't have usb support .. you have to use the .deb file direct from www.virtualbox.org [20:43] demonspork: no problem. you can probably reinstall grub with an old boot cd without any problems [20:43] vasi: there is no such file [20:43] pqwer1, you can create it [20:43] Scunizi: I think it is...should be [20:43] mdmkolbe, there are several options [20:44] Scunizi: Alright, downloading :) Thanks! [20:44] vasi: xchat is always the best. [20:44] vasi: and add what exactly? [20:44] logan1: D: module-udev-detect.c: /dev/snd/controlC1 is accessible: no [20:44] vasi: is there a guide by any chance? [20:44] pqwer1, unsure in your particular case, you'll have to use google for more info [20:44] bostrt: strange.. all I do on the host machine is sudo apt-get install ssh and it does the client and server.. from the other I ssh [20:44] Good day everyone , On a flash USB ubuntu is installed on ext3 partition and another fat32 partition is beside it , but windows can not open even fat32 partition ,why ? [20:44] Diddleha, yeah, that's what i'm using, i'm just surprised there's nothing included [20:44] nick125, I don't know what that means, but that smiley has me worried. [20:44] I can't get anything to work in 9.10 :( [20:45] Anyone understand this i la-min terms. For Unix or Unix-like operating systems: [20:45] 1. For Java 2, after downloading, type java -jar launcher.jar [20:45] 2. For Java 1.1, after downloading, type jre -cp launcher.jar install [20:45] 3. If that does not work, try java -classpath [path to] classes.zip:launcher.jar install [20:45] 4. If that does not work either, on sh-like shells, try [20:45] solman0: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [20:45] cd [to directory where launcher.jar is located] [20:45] mdmkolbe, if the drive has nothing important on it, you can just treat it like a flash drive and use the USB Install Creator thingy [20:45] hi, can anyone help me with an audio problem on ubuntu kk? [20:45] Scunizi: Yes. sometimes it will work. when execute the ssh command i will let the attempt time out and the port will be open [20:45] vasi: It should be, perhaps. Xchat has been the best for the past 10 years or so [20:45] sorry [20:45] logan1: Well, it says that pulseaudio can't open the audio device..... [20:45] vasi: I'd just like to get *any* display and worry about 3D etc. later [20:45] vasi: is there a switch for that? [20:45] dbruns: i guess there is a mismatch with md5 check [20:45] nick125, That's not good. I really want it to open my audio device :P [20:45] dbruns: did you already do the check? [20:45] bostrt: did you change any of the config options manually? [20:46] logan1: lsof /dev/snd/controlC1 [20:46] subbu: with the ISO? [20:46] vasi: in my case the external hard drive is going to be my backup of my user data durring the reformat [20:46] Scunizi: yes i am using an alternate port [20:46] How do I access my Windows files? [20:46] dbruns: yes [20:46] Scunizi: but that is it [20:46] subbu: yes [20:46] nick125, pastebin that output too? [20:46] i am trying to install ubuntu 9.10 by bootable pendrive. but i am not able to change the BIOS booting order. once i change the booting order to USB hard drive , it automatically boots from hard-drive. [20:46] bostrt: also are you doing this inside your lan or from outside [20:46] dbruns: was there any mismatch? [20:46] logan1: yes [20:46] nick125, http://paste.ubuntu.com/305367/ [20:46] Scunizi: i am on a university network [20:46] bostrt: that is.. are both machines in the same lan? [20:46] vasi: Is it IBm that makes the "landscape" things ? It just crashed, but i seem to have to login somewhere i dont have an account (Yuck, for this bugreporting thing) [20:46] any reason for sound applet thing to respond slowly? [20:47] subbu: not that I noticed... why? [20:47] hi, can anyone help me with an audio problem on ubuntu kk? my microphone doesn't work, instead loudspeakera have no problems [20:47] Hey, I just tried to dist-upgrade to karmic and it failed somewhere halfway :/ [20:47] anyone know how to get pptp working in 9.10 [20:47] Now my system is f00bar [20:47] Scunizi: i believe, i'm not sure how the network is setup here. I know they are on same subnet [20:47] digital-route: I don't see alsa in the sound options. Could you help a little more? Thanks :) [20:47] mdmkolbe, also if you have windows installed, you can use wubi to install without a disk at all [20:47] lws: it did for me too.. and when I reran it, it continued from where it left off [20:47] Anyone know any magical repair techniques? I'm booted from live cd and have chrooted on to my old system and tried to get dpkg to fix it -- but no avail. [20:47] logan1: Hmm. I'd try a reboot, just for kicks and giggles. [20:47] bostrt: ah.. the Univ. might be blocking a ton of ports [20:47] what's the feature on ubuntu-9.10 [20:47] if there is a mismatch then you will not be able to do an installation correctly [20:47] vasi: Are the crash logs saved somewhere possibly for bugbuddy ? [20:47] you will face lot of problem [20:47] lws: I'm so having fun with this :S [20:47] not [20:47] nick125, Okay, back in a flash. :P [20:47] how can I change keyboard layout from the console in ubuntu??? can't remember [20:47] Diddleha, no idea, sorry, ask the channel [20:48] subbu: i can't even get it to boot the CD [20:48] When I boot ubuntu instead of getting a GUI I seem to get what looks like a terminal asking me to log in, how can i boot in a safe graphics mode? [20:48] subbu: it will boot to CD on another box [20:48] pqwer1: I wish it had fixed it for me... :/ [20:48] Scunizi: i tryed port 22 for a short time and it still did not work [20:48] dbruns: oh! [20:48] vasi: They saw the question, thx though. [20:48] Q: hi did anyone install 9.10 on fake / bios raid? can you confirm the process the guide on fakeraidhowto only cover 9.04 [20:48] bostrt: can you port scan the ip of the machine you're trying to reach and see if you can get to it that way [20:48] Scunizi he needed to set root in grub2 [20:48] crazyboy11: tat's my question as well :) [20:48] Scunizi then he booted right up... weird [20:48] fokuslee302: Why are you installing on fakeraid? [20:48] dan___: yep .. strange [20:48] subbu: i have a 9.04 server CD it won't boot too also... just looking for tips on what to look for.. i changed the boot order, disabled the hard drive for boot sequence, etc and it still won't boot to the CD [20:48] so how is the compatibility of the 64 bit version these days. When i used it a couple years back most of the stuff didnt work, and i had to compile pretty much everything myself. [20:48] nick125, i need to dual boot windows [20:48] i installed ubuntu on a separate partition when i had windows vista installed, and ive been using the grub bootloader to boot into vista/linux, but now i just upgraded to windows 7 and the bootloader is gone so i cant boot into linux any more... how can i get the grub bootloader back ? [20:48] dbruns: one more question, when you brun the CD do you use the high speed or the lowest speed? [20:49] Scunizi: I ssh'd into a machine in another location that works fine and port scanned the computer i am trying to ssh into and the port is filtered [20:49] anyone? [20:49] vasi: the computer has an old version of ubuntu (that I plan to trash when I reformat) on it right now (though I'm considering making it a dual boot with windows, so I might go the install windows first route) [20:49] bostrt: set it up for a different port [20:49] nick125, also too cheap to by 3ware HAHA [20:49] Scunizi: when i portscan localhost on the comptuer i am trying to getinto the port is open [20:49] dbruns: oh then it looks like it is not the issue with CD [20:49] Kroptax, you may be able to boot from live cd and reinstall the bootloader from that [20:49] pqwer1: What did you do to restart it? I'm just trying to apt-get dist-upgrade [20:49] subbu: right ;-) [20:49] bostrt: that's not a good test.. [20:49] fokuslee302: Can you setup a fakeraid for Windows and use software RAID for Ubuntu? [20:49] lws: I was using the alternate install cd [20:49] zleap i dont have a cd.. i downloaded it [20:49] Scunizi: okay, im going to change port, brb [20:50] hey all, just updated to 9.10 and fixed my graphics problem but now am having trouble with internet...it works but takes a long time to call up the page. has anyone else this problem too? [20:50] bostrt: try one above 2000 [20:50] mdmkolbe, if you already have grub installed, you can probably install directly from an iso file [20:50] mdmkolbe, google for "iso-scan/filename" [20:50] pqwer1: What's that do? [20:50] blackxored: Check out setxkbmap [20:50] bostrt: don't forget you have to restart the ssh server to use the new port === logan__ is now known as logan1 [20:51] I shtere a reason as to why Ubuntu devlopers decided to give Karmic a "mobile" look? [20:51] nick125, back, lemme try the video :P [20:51] lws: lets you use the cd as a repository [20:51] vasi: thanks, that looks like how I'll want to do it [20:51] Could anyone else help me enable alsa? Can't find it... [20:51] nick125, im not sure what process that will be, put /boot on a single disk ? how bout the MBR grub will see the bios raid? [20:51] nick125, Right, colors are still fine, still no sound though. [20:51] pqwerl: Hmm. Well I have the net right now anyways, so it should be good if I could get these dependencies to resolve. [20:51] After upgrading to Karmic Koala and Amarok 2.2, local collection shows 0 tracks.Any idea why that happens?Appreciate your help! [20:52] mdmkolbe, good luck, tell me how it goes [20:52] lws: what happenes if you restart dist-upgrade? [20:52] hello, i just upgraded to karmic, and during the 'boot experience' my monitor tells me the input is out of range... how can i fix this? [20:52] pqwer1: It halts because of too many errors [20:52] is there any way for me to use the unichrome driver in 9.10? [20:52] Scunizi: okay i think it is the school's network not letting any traffic into my computer [20:52] Is there a keyboard shortcut to open a terminal? [20:52] no [20:52] but you can make one! [20:52] Scunizi: i can sign on to a server here at school then ssh into my computer fine [20:53] pqwerl: I'd like to just force upgrade all the packages. There shouldn't be any conflicts once -- and I"m booted from the live CD now anyways since it fubared everything [20:53] logan1: hmm. pavucontrol still shows no devices? [20:53] Hi! Since upgrading to Karmic (from Jaunty), DNS lookup are slow as hell for the first time. They take around 15-20 second. The problem appears only when I connect through a VPN (which is practically all the time since this is the only way I can access the internet at this university). I tried disabling ipv6, but it didn't help. Interestingly not all programs are affected, but Firefox, Chrome, apt-get and Synaptic do have the problem. XCh [20:53] at doesn't. Does anyone know how to fix this? It makes Karmic almost unusable for me [20:53] DesertEagle, I can't, Compiz just died, taking most everything with it, save for IRC ): [20:53] Hey all, I tried to install linux-server kernel on a desktop install of karmic, but it didn't boot into that kernel and the option doesn't appear on the grub menu, is there something further that I need to do? [20:53] bostrt: universities lock down a lot [20:54] Scunizi: yea, it's such a pain to have to ssh into one machine to get to another [20:54] dAlfa89_ Keyboard Shortcuts [20:54] is anybody else noticing that OO looks like crap on karmic? I have strange black boxes all over the screen.... [20:54] Halaband: That's not a karmic problem likely. You probably have your regular DNS as your first entry in resolv.conf which is no longer accessible due to the VPN. It has to time out before it moves on [20:54] and by OO, I mean OpenOffice.org... [20:54] nick125, Nope. [20:54] Halaband: I've had similar problems when NOT connected to VPN due to the remote DNS being inserted first. [20:54] Halaband: Make sense? [20:54] mlissner: probably your video card driver [20:54] OK. I am using ubuntu 9.10 [20:54] lws, it's 'Halabund' (use tab completion). (I'm saying that just so I don't miss your replies) [20:55] Hi .. I am SOOO Frustrated. I cannot boot on the Ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix Live CD on my LG X110. The screen just turns blank while booting. I trued a number of different USB keys, and the Wubi installation too.... It does not work.. Any help will be appriciated. [20:55] sound doesn't work [20:55] lws: have you done a simple update, upgrade? as your repositories have probably been modified [20:55] blackxored: if you don't have X then: man loadkeys [20:55] but apperenty chat does [20:55] Halabund: Terribly sorry, I've got my comp hooked up to a crappy TV at the moment. [20:55] Scunizi, no, it's only in OpenOffice.org...it's like the GUI hinting is programmed wrong with the theme or something. [20:55] What are the advantages of running your own DNS server? [20:55] Mnemonic, welcome to the new 'boot experience' [20:55] pqwerl: Yeahp [20:55] oops, wrong channel [20:55] Hi, I have a pulseaudio issue [20:56] Trezker, Do tell :D [20:56] Mnemonic, it worked on all the laptops and Pc's I tried it on. how did you create the USB stick? using the tool inside Karmic or inside Jaunty? [20:56] i can't find the 'quit' button like in jaunty anymore... except ctrl-alt-del, anyone know where to locate it? (netbook remix) [20:56] When I mark pulseaudio for complete removal, it also removes ubuntu-desktop [20:56] Trezker, I'm having one too. [20:56] lws, I didn't mess with DNS settings. Everything worked fine with Jaunty (and it works fine in Windows). The first entry in resolv.conf is actually from the VPN. [20:56] Trezker, me to [20:56] Trezker, Not having that one :P [20:56] is that something I need or can just not give a *? [20:56] th1: I tryed the tool for windows on the ISO, and the 3-party they recommend on the webpage. [20:56] I reistalled alsa, no joy [20:57] Halabund: There's no logical reason why DNS would be slow over VPN unless it's trying to use the wrong DNS server. [20:57] Trezker: it's just a meta package.. wont' hurt anything [20:57] Halabund: Do you still have a jaunty install to test it? It could just be their DNS is acting up coincidentally. [20:57] Mnemonic, maybe the tool has problems with the karmic image. it works with the USB creator inside Karmic and Jaunty [20:57] Halabund: Or windows even [20:57] where is the data for the top bar located? [20:57] vasi: Why isnt the built in GNU/MC editor used in UBUNTU ? /Its not usable to code with as is. [20:58] Carma, anear death experiences aside [20:58] Mnemonic, if you have a real machine with ubuntu (or that can boot from LiveCD) try creating the USB stick from in there [20:58] Diddleha, why do you keep asking me? [20:58] th1: I allso tryed Wubi in Windows .. :( ??? [20:58] Diddleha: what editor are you looking for? [20:58] Mnemonic, a guy from the office had created a USB stick with the windows tool and it couldn't run the installer (but could boot ok though), and running "check media" didn't show any errors [20:58] Anyone here have a 9.10 version in which SOUND actually works? [20:58] vasi: Oh, sorry.. was unaware you frowned upon it :=) [20:58] <_Techie_> Mnemonic, have you tried using unetbootin from windows to creata a live USB? [20:58] ah, awesome. youtube has sound again [20:58] pqwerl: Okay I think I see what's going on, there's a bunch of half installed packages that are not configured. Update refuses to continue [20:58] Mnemonic, sorry I don't know much about the various Windows tools since I rarely use Win [20:58] th1: Check media does the same .. Black screen [20:59] I just upgraded (or tried to) to karmic via "do-release-upgrade", I'm getting problems with package nvidia-185-kernel-source :< [20:59] lws: I checked the the settings in Windows, and it seems to use the same DNS servers as Karmic, in the same order. Actually Karmic also has the 3 old DNS servers (which are not from the VPN) listed at the end of resolv.conf. I don't have Jaunty any more, I upgraded it to Karmic. Does the system try to use the DNS servers in the same order as they appear in resolv.conf? [20:59] I'd really like to get my sound working. [20:59] :P [20:59] th1: was he trying to put 'alternate install CD' on the usb? [20:59] Diddleha, it's ok if we're already talking about something related....but if it's something completely random, i'm not more likely to know than the channel at large [20:59] and diablo 2 has the sound back too [20:59] exec error when installing or removing via any dpkg util [20:59] Seeems to me 9.10 is a bit of a turkey [20:59] jthing, it's a bit buggy :D [20:59] blaz_, no it was the ordinary live CD .. when you got to the "select language" thing it would just freeze there with the "waiting" mouse pointer forever [21:00] where is the option to have my screen flash from a system bell in karmic??? [21:00] jthing: I agree :( === gh0zt_away is now known as gh0zt [21:00] So, why is Ubuntu so deermined to keep pulseaudio all the time? [21:00] where is vlc? i upgraded, launched it.... but it won't show up [21:00] jthing: no sound for you, no display for me [21:00] anyone know how I get around this: Removing libapache2-mod-python ... /var/lib/dpkg/info/libapache2-mod-python.postrm: 7: a2dismod: not found [21:00] lws, and a strange thing is that not all programs are affected. XCHat connects very quickly. Unfortunately Firefox and apt-get are affected. [21:00] jthing: i've got 3 different sound cards and they all work in 9.10... but i did have to configure one manually in daemon.conf [21:00] logan1: alsamixer -c0 no go? [21:00] verylazyguy: probably under Assistive Technologies in System>Prefereneces [21:00] nick125, no go. [21:00] Trezker, I don't know, and with the state of PulseAudio it should be possible to deselect it, unfortunately in Karmic even the volume control applet depends on it so you're pretty screwed if you decide to nuke it [21:01] PLEASE HAVE UBUNTU COME WITH A VERSION OF GNU/MC WE CAN USE TO CODE WITH :=) /Yeah yeah etc... :) [21:01] Anyone got an nvidia card working in 9.10? [21:01] so im reading this if i use alternative install cd dmraid is already provided and everythign should just work for the bios raid? [21:01] lws: dpkg-reconfigure etc. might be the ticket [21:01] Halabund: that is weird. I wonder if Karmic added some other place programs get DNS information...? [21:01] using proprietary drivers [21:01] talha: yup me [21:01] lws, that's what my resolv.conf looks like. http://pastebin.com/d3dd46744 [21:01] talha, yep [21:01] th1: umh. I've used unetbootin to put mini.iso which worked, but alternate install cd will not work from [21:01] !shout | Diddleha [21:01] Diddleha: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. [21:01] nick125, http://paste.ubuntu.com/305379/ [21:01] I just upgraded via do-release-upgrade [21:01] th1: umh. I've used unetbootin to put mini.iso which worked, but alternate install cd did not work from usb [21:01] and everything is falling apart [21:01] I don't use the volume control applet though, I have a knob on my speakers [21:01] pqwer1: thats what I wanted. I was trying dpkg --configure -a [21:01] Hi, I'm having some problems installing from the Alternate Xubuntu disk. It stops at "Setting users and passwords 26%". In /var/log/syslog it says "user-setup: Done", but after that nothing happens. Anyone know how to fix this? [21:01] nick125, that's what I get when I try to reload alsa. [21:01] lws, the 129.* are from the VPN. ipconfig /all in Windows lists the same two DNS servers for the VPN [21:01] talha, that seems to be the pattern for 9.10 at the moment \: [21:02] Yay :/ [21:02] hello, could someone please help me find some clue?? suspend/hibernate stopped working altogether on my laptop a few days ago. at first after installing the karmic beta it worked, but stopped (after some update?) [21:02] blaz_, well I didn't investigate it further, I just verified it did what he said and hten I gave him one of my usb sticks to install from :) [21:02] I already mentioned reistalling also with no success [21:02] Any way to revert to jaunty? [21:02] logan1: Are you reloading it as root (i.e., sudo) [21:02] ditto! [21:02] talha, only reinstall I'm afraid [21:02] Diddleha: midnight commander is in the repos.. just install it.. sudo apt-get install mc [21:02] and Diddleha: this is not a channel where you will find many ubuntu developpers/packagers - so please submit a bug report [21:02] how do I get the old sound preferences window back? [21:02] >_O where's VLC? [21:02] Trying to get console tty framebuffer resolution increased; the old grub0 vga= method is obsolete, but nothing in the wiki or forums are really helping me out... I can get the grub2 menu to a higher resolution, but not the console [21:02] Woo [21:02] nick125, good point. Less errors :D [21:02] Should be fun :/ [21:02] talha, why do you need to revert? [21:03] nick125, http://paste.ubuntu.com/305384/ [21:03] another midnight commander user! [21:03] Because X won't launch [21:03] talha, ok that's a good enough reason I guess ;) [21:03] logan1: Sound card model? [21:03] And I can't use dpkg at all [21:03] epinky, onboard intel sound. [21:03] logan1: Does alsamixer work now? [21:03] I'm in recovery mode atm, using irssi [21:03] talha, surely there's something else wrong with the system then [21:03] nick125, nope. [21:03] lws, also, the third and fifth server don't work when I'm connected to the VPN (I tried testing them with nslookup. I hope I did it right. Using nslookup was a bit confusing) So there are (may be) two DNS servers that don't work. Maybe it's trying to use them for some reason. [21:03] pqwerl: Fail. It seems I'm in some lalaland where packages refuse to be configured because of dependency problems, and packages refuse to install because stuff hasn't been configured yet. [21:03] nick125: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory [21:03] Sound on my systenm is buildt i on the card [21:03] It's nvidia-185-kernel-source [21:03] hm, how can I remux a file via command line in linux? what tool would you recommend? === anthony is now known as Guest98792 [21:03] in [21:04] Halabund: "host" is easier to use FYI. [21:04] logan1: lspci ? [21:04] talha, try installing the 190 driver from nvidia's page [21:04] epinky, Err? [21:04] lws, I wonder if it's possible to edit resolv.conf by hand. Does anyone know if this is possible and if it is necessary to do anything special to make the settings take effect? [21:04] * talha has a go [21:04] Brb [21:04] I have a nvidea graphics board as well a 7300 model [21:04] lws, Thanks, I'll take a look at man host [21:04] Q: ok how about this, i have 4 gig ram so i just make 512mb of swap is enough right? [21:04] YEESSSSS!!!! [21:04] epinky, I'm versed enough to tinker with my menu.lst but that's sorta where my expertise ends, beyond that, I need sorta... straight directions and questions. Else I have no idea what I'm doing. [21:04] Halabund: It's very possible, that's what I was suggesting. Hypothetically the dns libaries read it whenever a program is launched [21:04] Halabund: yes you can.. and you'll have to restar the network for it to take effect [21:05] Halabund: So if you connect to vpn and leave firefox on you would have problems... for example. [21:05] http://guvcview.berlios.de/downloads.html <-----< that is what i was lookign for [21:05] Scunizi, guntbert: Problem is its unusable as is. The Fedora thing works much better but its suffereing from a destroyer from Germany as it seems. [21:05] Halabund: Man resolv.conf, it's format is really trivial === Pascal is now known as die_ente [21:05] !test [21:05] yes, I'm alive. [21:05] oh God! [21:05] he's aliiiiiiiiive [21:06] O_O RUUUUN [21:06] DesertEagle: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[21:06] votebay Diddleha LOL [21:06] voteban* [21:06] In 9.10, which package includes sshfs? [21:06] Scunizi, it is the best video capture for ubuntu, easily [21:07] epinky, http://paste.ubuntu.com/305387/ [21:07] Diddleha: what is your real problem? [21:07] logan1: It's importan to know which chipset is [21:07] jeffery: try the package "sshfs" [21:07] epinky, I understand that. I had no idea about this command :D [21:07] No luck [21:07] alternatively, you can type "sshfs" on the command line and it will tell you which package it's in [21:08] guntbert: Well, i cant code using MC natively on Ubuntu because its not using the correct internal editor. The one you use is not usable at all now (Press F4 on a file, edit and save it) [21:08] hm, anyone anyone else have a problem with left click not working in the alpha for 64bit flash? [21:08] i never did find it via google, i ended up looking at every file in my home directory searching for a config file named like the app [21:08] it totally worked heh [21:09] logan1: what "aplay -l" says? [21:09] innomen: that's one way to skin a cat :) [21:09] epinky, aplay: device_list:223: no soundcards found... [21:09] addisonj: works fine here... any particular flash website where this occurs for you? [21:09] mame ciao a tutti [21:10] Scunizi, is there someway i can share this with people? like put it on a !webcam for the bot or something? because i'm nto kidding it is an awesome application === Whitesquall1 is now known as Whitesquall [21:10] all flash websites [21:10] Q: ok how about this, i have 4 gig ram so i just make 512mb of swap is enough right? also does the 32bit version support 4 gig of ram? [21:10] or content i should say [21:10] guntbert: See if you can have another compile/version included by default. Id appreciate that very much. [21:10] innomen, Oh, you found something? What did you find? [21:10] logan1: http://www.linuxant.com/alsa-driver/ [21:10] I can't upgrade to 9.10 from 9.04.

I just installed Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 on my EEEpc. Is there a way to switch off the default UNR interface and get the default gnome interface?

[21:12] can somebody help me please? after updating I get this error un startup - OAFID:GNOME_FastUserSwitchApple... [21:12] package manager can't find sshfs either [21:12] logan1: just try [21:12] omar, im pertty sure if your system is up to date... then you're up to date [21:12] guntbert: As a developer i expect this will be fixed. [21:12] Diddleha: I understand - but there are mainly two ways to reach this goal: do it yourself - or - file a bug [21:12] DarK``: check out http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-laptop-and-netbook-25/other-designs-for-netbooks-762706/ [21:12] what is the terminal command to search for files? [21:12] epinky, It failed to install. [21:12] speedxxx1ore, locate [21:13] speedxxx1ore: first "sudo updatedb" then locate [21:13] guntbert: I have compiled it myself for the past years (Since it got borked). Its time to make it work again. [21:13] logan1: did you unzip it right? [21:13] Scunizi: so I need desktop-switcher. I'll try installing it. Thanks a lot :) [21:13] epinky, using the .deb file. [21:13] innomen: baned? why? [21:13] exit [21:13] Diddleha: so submit the patch :) [21:13] my bad >.< [21:13] guntbert: You see its useless as an editor right ?

[21:14] Scunizi: test34: thanx [21:14] epinky, good question, let me find. Can't copypaste from the system. [21:14] guntbert: Problem is, that patch will bork German "Umlauts". Im willing to code with someone though. [21:14] guntbert: We need unity in this area [21:14] Is their anyway I can upgrade using th CD instead of downloading? [21:14] I'm installing for the first time. Have a windows vista system. I thought it automatically transferred my preferences and my desktop, including wallpaper. I didn't. How do I do this? [21:14] Diddleha: this is way off toic now - I never used that editor so I could not say if it was useful or useless [21:15] *off topic [21:15] Does the netbook remix also include the standard desktop drivers?

If I select the older kernel It works but I dont have any sound. How can I fix the network? [21:15] hi [21:15] Anyone know where I can find rastertoz600? [21:15] guntbert: I have coded about 15 applications for GNU/other free oses using it. Its good if i dont have to waste time correcting bugs [21:16] guntbert: Do i have a point ? [21:16] If this is not the place to ask questions about installation, where is the right place? [21:16] i'm install 9.10 yesterday and cant seem to get the nvidia driver working [21:16] logan1: you need kernel sources [21:16] I can't upgrade to 9.10 from 9.04.

[21:16] Scunizi: desktop-switcher isnt found in the repositories. [21:16] for the upgrade to 9.10 is anyone having issue with flash? i cant right click into flash setting and when watching youtube, i cant interact with the menu, fastward, replay and etc [21:17] when i re booted the screen would onlt flash [21:17] jo1993, why do you say it's not the place? [21:17] PlasmaSheep: the other way round? [21:17] DarK``: are you using synaptic? [21:17] I need some help with my laptop. Every once in a while the laptop (I think the screen) makes a popping sound. It normally happens on big screen changes like turning on or shutting off. I now found that it makes the sound every time I start warzone2100 (it is in window mode). Does anyone know what could be going on? === junior__ is now known as ajunior [21:17] Scunizi: yes. [21:17] Having really really low audio with the upgrade from working 04 to 10, what could be the problem? Speakers are maxed, volume controll on the system is not respoding [21:17] guntbert: Alrighty, now... a terrible thing will befall things if the MC params arent considered. [21:17] ubuntu_ : try downloading the drivers from Nvidia website. [21:17] :) [21:17] Scunizi: but I also tried command line, no luck though. [21:17] guntbert: what [21:17] Muhahah [21:17] DarK``: just type switcher in the search bar.. I found it [21:17] Hey guys, my netbook ao1 not work correctly... there an driver for intel gma 500? [21:17] can someone help me configure pulseaudio in xubuntu 9.10 [21:17] Because I see a lot of very techie talk but nothing for newbies [21:17] does x11 use DRI itself? [21:18] guntbert: yeah, sorry [21:18] I'm going back to 32bit now that the final version is out [21:18] DarK``: or install with sudo apt-get install desktop-switcher [21:18] for window drawing, does x11 use DRI [21:18] PlasmaSheep: sorry, I misread your question === brendan_ is now known as Guest32867 [21:18] guntbert: wait, it's right :P [21:18] jo1993, Just ask the questions, I'm a newbie too. :) And eventually you get help. [21:18] Scunizi: it doesnt here. Only results for "switcher" are byobu and gnome-applets.

Some monitors just do that. [21:19] logan1: thx [21:19] christopherolah_: it is only in linux [21:19] Scunizi: tried that, didnt work. The package desktop-switcher is not available, but it referred ot by another package... [21:19] DarK``: byobu is a reimplimentation of screen.. not sure what gnome-appelets is.. I'm on 9.04 .. you might be able to download the deb directly from packages.ubuntu.com [21:19] christopherolah_: which means it is a linux software problem. And it scares me to death :-\ [21:19] Could someone recommend a intermediate bash scripting tutorial/guide? [21:19] !torrents [21:19] Karmic can be torrented from http://hr.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your architecture.

[21:19] since the update to ubuntu 9.10 my huawei e169 dont work, [21:20] is there someway to run update-initramfs as part of an install when /proc/modules don't exist? === ubuntu__ is now known as lws [21:20] Ashfire908: I am looking for it :-) [21:20] Ashfire908: http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ [21:20] Ashfire908: http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ [21:20] Ashfire908: damn [21:20] I am slow XD [21:21] pqwer1: A lot of my package configurations are failing because of not having /proc for my current kernel...... [21:21] problem: my WLAN card works from longer distance with WinXP than Ubuntu (but else, works correct) [21:21] kubuntuser: If it only happens in Linux, than it probably a fault on that end. Have you tried searching for similar problems with that type of laptop? [21:21] Intermediate = Advanced? lol I already knew about that guide, I was hoping... one sec [21:21] christopherolah_: I can not find anything [21:22] Ashfire908: advanced means it will make you advanced [21:22] I can't upgrade to 9.10 from 9.04. I get this error message: http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/2994/screenshot001g.png [21:22] kubuntuser: Sorry, I don't have any idea. [21:22] christopherolah_: no problem [21:22] PlasmaSheep, be glad [21:22] Sorry, power's not stable here. I was hoping for a simpler guide, but that will do. [21:22] My custom login theme was removed in Karmic! [21:22] Can't we have custom login screens anymore? [21:23] o.o [21:23] Umm [21:23] so we have established that after my karmic upgrade, gnome will not launch URL's into firefox [21:23] guess I will use Live CD's proc dir to fool it... [21:23] PlasmaSheep, In my experience sound doesn't work in 9.10 === KevinD is now known as Xx1337xX [21:23] hopefully they're similar kernels... [21:23] Ashfire908: that will teach you everything. If you have a problem you do not understand, ask here or #bash [21:23] my sound works in 9.10 [21:23] Scunizi: I've just been told the ubuntu devs dropped desktop-switcher due to some issues. Thats why its not included, meaning I'll have to keep using this UNR-interface for now... [21:23] with 9.10 you can click buttons in flash for firefox good, like on youtube [21:23] How come whenever I try updating to ubuntu 9.10 I get the message check internet connection [21:23] I am now living in total silence [21:24] what's the base package for gnome? [21:24] DarK``: keep looking there may be another way around it. [21:24] My custom login theme was removed in Karmic! [21:24] I'm trying to update through update manager [21:24] Can't we have custom login screens anymore? [21:24] nowimproved, do you mean "can't" and on 64 bit version?

[21:24] Xx1337xX: Are you on the Internet? apt needs Internet access (with a few exceptions) to run. [21:25] lws: hard to answer, apt-cache search gnome for an overview, gnome-panel is what I guess you look for [21:25] That doesn't mean it won't work for me. [21:25] PlasmaSheep: Xx1337xX you seem both to have the same problem - did you try with a different mirror? [21:25] dibblego: I would make a bash script for that [21:25] guntbert: How can I switch mirrors?

[21:42] zsquareplusc-liv: yeah it isn't real obvious, but it is in the list of account types [21:42] 2gb? or 4gb? [21:42] ary2, 2gb should be quite enough.

[21:44] 'nocd' boot option, right? [21:44] what has gnome-obex-server been replaced with in 9.10? [21:44] I just tried normalizer-ogg and it makes the tracks quieter, which is ridiculous. [21:44] TLF: if you have internet yes, just use update-manager [21:44] guntbert: or with 2gb is suficient? [21:44] (They need to be louder.) [21:44] thanks, DasEi [21:44] mage__: well it's hard to use an older driver when the LiveCD does not even give you a screen :/ [21:45] zsquareplusc-liv, try to boot without usplash [21:45] hi, does anyone have problems with aptitude on 9.10 [21:45] !details | slhsen [21:45] 9.10 seems ok [21:45] slhsen: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [21:45] 9.10 is faster [21:46] ary: it should be sufficient if you don't run too many memory hungry apps - because if swap gets used in the running system (which is rarely the case with 2GB) *then* you would need more - but not much more [21:46] So I'm having a problem trying to fix my system from livecd === ubuntu_ is now known as lws [21:46] I can't install package slike dbus because their SETUP wants to LOAD the damn thing [21:46] running on 3 gyg and a 250gyg hard drive on an acer 5735z [21:46] how do I get around this? and just install my packages so I can reboot into my system [21:47] joaopinto: well the white pulsating logo is displayed. it fails when switching to the screen with the horizontal effect that used to be a progress bar. and the problem is only there with two monitors [21:47] why is there only one file in /boot/grub/ ? [21:47] only /boot/grub/grubenv exists [21:47] it took 5hours to upgrade from ubuntu 9.04 [21:47] lws: the installer is supposed to replace start-stop-daemon with /bin/true for the install :-/ [21:47] http://paste.ubuntu.com/305428/ it seems aptitude is not able te resolve ip adresses [21:47] hey guys anyone know an alternative keyserver i can use [21:47] but was woth it === dean is now known as Guest93688 [21:47] dean: whats wrong with uh [21:47] mage__: Hmm [21:47] hi === Guest93688 is now known as dean_ [21:47] hello [21:47] its not responding [21:47] hello i am having a problem with Pidgin, I am using Ubuntu 9.10. When I start Ubuntu Pidgin will automatically start. Is there a way I can prevent this? I tried to "startup applications" but don't see anything related to pidgin [21:48] mage__: anything else? LIke initramfs-update wants to access /proc and whatnot [21:48] ive got a question [21:48] lws: are you doing a chrooted upgrade? [21:48] Say. Why does the Humanity theme have 5 separate svgs for, say, start-here.svg - isn't the whole point of SVG so that you don't have to do that? [21:48] about netbook remix [21:48] mario_: 5 hours! almost like compiling the distro === dzus is now known as qu4ck [21:48] mount -t proc none /proc [21:48] mage__: update-manager died half way through and my system crashed and wouldn't reboot when updating to Karmic. I'm trying to fix it. [21:48] gpg: requesting key CEC06767 from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com [21:48] gpg: keyserver timed out [21:48] gpg: keyserver receive failed: keyserver error [21:48] i got that [21:48] dean_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:48] why when I want to upgrade my distribution, the update manager said "couldn't download release note and please check your internet connections?" [21:48] mage__: Yeah, that's exactly what I'm trying to do [21:48] Scunizi: I fixed it. If anyone wonders how to remove the default UNR interface in 9.10: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-netbook-remix, download the i386 .deb of desktop-switcher (can be found through Google), sudo dpkg -i deskto-pswitcher_0.4.6_i386.deb . The "Desktop switcher" item is now available, click it, switch it and log out and in to see the results. [21:48] even if it is to offer slightly better rendering at different levels, seems surely all 5 resolutions don't need that... [21:48] dean_: try http://pgp.mit.edu/ [21:48] thanks [21:48] anyone else lose multitouch upgrading ubuntu remix [21:48] who can I switch to normal desktop in ubuntu eee remix?

[21:49] karmic koala [21:49] mage__: I'm booting from a live cd right now because of the update failure. I just want my system fixed :( [21:49] go into compris [21:49] mage__: that one worked. [21:49] dean_: the ubuntu keyserver seems to be shaky every now and then... [21:49] any idea? i am using 9.10 http://paste.ubuntu.com/305428/ [21:49] Hello [21:49] how can I boot and still hvae the CD drive available? [21:49] mage__: I thought proc was particular to the kernel though? As in a virtual filesystem [21:49] and alter it there [21:49] mage__: I guess I hope the livecd uses the same basic setup? :) [21:50] (using livecd) how can I boot and still be able to remove the CD so that I can insert others ? [21:50] frostburn, check in mouse preferences. System > Preferences > Mouse [21:50] lws: chroot in the broken sys and try to fix it [21:50] slhsen: please give the details *here* [21:50] Roey, you can't. [21:50] lws: its a virtual fs but you need to mount it where you want it [21:50] what/ [21:50] arand: Yeah, because it is totally overloaded :\ [21:50] What program does Nautilus use to play a music track when you mouse over it? [21:50] lws: like inside your chroot dir [21:50] i'm trying to get apt-keys with command: apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com ... [21:50] Berzerker-: isn't there some 'nocd' kernel boot parameter? [21:50] I am having some problems with pidgin, can some one PM me ? thanks [21:50] Roey, no...how will it boot from the CD if you take the CD out? [21:50] and i'm getting answer that "server is inaccesible" [21:50] Voldenet: try http://pgp.mit.edu/ [21:50] Roey: I think that isn't possible with the ubuntu livecd, you can always bott from usb instead... [21:50] mage__: Yeah I did that, so I'm chrooted, and have mounted /proc inside it, fixed resolv.conf inside it. Anything else I need to do inside chroot before I can install dbus and whatnot? [21:51] arand: I've done this before actually,I just don't remember the option. [21:51] Voldenet: There are so many people trying to do the same thing that the server probably can't keep up. Perhaps try later. [21:51] what is the package for PHP MySQL [21:51] lws: mount /sys while you're at it i guess [21:51] Berzerker-: it boots and loads into memory. [21:51] that should be all you need [21:51] i've installed what logically seems like it's the right package [21:51] lws: did you know, you can mount -o bind /etc/resolv.conf /path/to/chroot/etc/resolv.conf ? [21:51] i hate GLAMP hell [21:51] mount bind a single file? [21:51] wow [21:51] Roey, never heard of it. only way I know is USB boot [21:51] guntbert: thanks for pgp.mit.edu, works like a charm [21:51] Roey: Ah, then you know more than me :) I though that option wasn't enabled for the ubu live... [21:51] it's there a ppa or something of JDownloader? [21:51] ;-) [21:52] xlq: Yeah, but there isn't much advantage to doing that instead of copying it.. [21:52] hi [21:52] Roey: i know knoppix has that option the ubuntu cd might not have it [21:52] Voldenet: you're welcome :-) [21:52] hey dudez [21:52] ok, when i open a terminal window and write "sudo aptitude update" output is >> [Connecting to ubuntu.gnu.gen.tr (1.0.0.0)] [21:52] aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah [21:52] knoppix does. [21:52] ok [21:52] but if i ping the address first [21:52] it connects [21:52] ok how in Gods name am i supposed to get grub working on a partition instead of my MBR? [21:52] mage__: what's the option calld in knoppix again? [21:52] bbr [21:52] TLF: I don't think soo, it updates itself... [21:52] can anyone help mehhh ... :P? how do i change to normal desktop in karmic koala netbook remix? [21:52] im searching for an answer for 3 days no [21:52] w [21:52] Roey: i dunno i haven't used knoppix since 2004 [21:52] and i helped people ehile i was waiting [21:52] mage__: yep apt-get update still halting because of too many errors [21:53] i want to install an operating system from a .iso file, and im using ubuntu (new to both VMWare and Ubuntu) [21:53] specifically when it says whether I want a virtual drive or i want access to the cd drive in the options to set up the virtual machine. im unable to browse for the iso file [21:53] wsch: yes that works [21:53] DasEi: it doesnt here nad i dunno what the problem is [21:53] Bilz: supporting vmware is way out of the scope of this channel [21:53] Hi, how can i search for the latest created file in a folder? [21:53] wsch: karmic ? [21:53] Bilz, use VirtualBox - it's far easier [21:53] mage [21:53] so my problem is aptitude cannot connect to host unless i ping it myself, any ideas? (karmic) [21:53] Bilz: virtualbox is easier and theres a channel on freenode [21:54] Roey: toram ? [21:54] Voldenet, after spending all that time installing it! is virtualbox better though? [21:54] DasEi: correct [21:54] Is this ubuntu tech support IRC? [21:54] mage__: dbus is failing to upgrade because it can't access some unix socket in /var/ Thus I can't install much else [21:54] bbunnelle: yes [21:54] Bilz: for virtualization use whatever you're comfortable [21:54] Bilz: You need to pay for VMWare workstation, so i assume it is better. [21:54] lws: so mkdir the dir behind it [21:54] for can't mount a hard drive partition, works all the time, but now it says resource temporarily unavailable [21:54] any tips? [21:55] is there Xen support in ubuntu? [21:55] mage__: the dir is there, the socket is not [21:55] lws: mkdir -p `dirname /whatever/its/asking/for` [21:55] oh [21:55] Bilz, I turned away from vmware when the guest additions would never compile on newer distros/kernels and they denied the existance of a problem.. Vbox has never let me down yet# [21:55] mage__:/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket not existant. [21:55] wsch: I'm not too trained with that, but it's easier in grub2 I read, maybe we should move to #grub to have better eyes on .. [21:55] Has anyone addressed the DNS resolving problem in ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) ? Im using open DNS right now but it takes an eternity to load pages when just using the regular GNOME network manager default configurations [21:55] time to get rid of vmware then :) [21:55] thanks [21:55] What does a "triaged" bug mean under Launchpad? [21:55] lws: thats odd, try starting dbus [21:55] mage__: kind of annoying that configure reallly badly wants to test dbus out. Anyway to hinder that? [21:55] firefly2442: check wikipedia [21:55] firefly2442, it means someone else checked the bug report out and it makes sense [21:55] DasEi: sure im there allready [21:55] also, welcome to english ;) [21:56] mage__: dbus is running on the livecd.

They used to only control the Master channel, whereas they now do weird stuff with both Master and PCM. [21:56] p-f, the problem is the new volume control applet controls PulseAudio while the old one controled Alsa [21:56] lws: go into /etc/init.d and rename the dbus script to something else and then ln -s /bin/true dbus [21:57] and the volume control applet is what intercepts those keys === docgnome_ is now known as docgnome [21:57] lws: i'm not sure what exactly its called though [21:57] if I chose to encrypt my /home, is the whole /home encrypted or just /home/username ? === Thorvald__ is now known as Thor [21:57] hello. who can help me?

[22:00] dreambox: what would help? "we dont include mp3 support by default because paying the man is SOOOO LAME dude" [22:01] ok there are nothing but horror stories from upgrades with any OS. Karmic has implemented many new changes including REPLACING kernel and many other software packages that Ubuntu depended on instead of updating them. I would recomend backing up your system and getting a fresh copy of the ISO of Ubuntu 9.10 and install from scratch [22:01] puts a intel gma 500 fuck me [22:01] alguien habla español? [22:01] losha: I use dhcp [22:01] !es | hkm [22:01] hkm: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es.

[22:02] anyone run fluxbox on 9.10? [22:02] mathepic, system - preferences - main menu [22:03] mage__ : Uhm, if it's supposed to be a win -> ubuntu newbies guide, what WOULD help would be ".. but there are numerous other FREE applications that support these files." I didn't get the obsession to state the mp3 is proprietairy format. As if one day everyone'd have to pay for it. [22:03] punzada: try http://pgp.mit.edu/ [22:03] its a complete upgrade. its changed to the new Kernel which was posted on the Ubuntu website upon beta release for people to be warned that there are bugs from upgrading. There is no way to address these issues becuase every machine is different. [22:03] What program does Nautilus use to play a music track when you mouse over it? [22:03] ty [22:03] loshe: no luck, even tried different dns server, same result [22:03] mage_: after I install SMB, I can network an XP laptop, but windows 7 has this IPv4 thing going on. I can't get windows 7 to see my ubuntu machine [22:03] sshc: ahh yes you told me that but i had to go also... ok ill give it a try [22:03] You have a mix going on of old sofrtware and new and its just not working out.. i would reinstall from scratch [22:03] guntbert, what the problem? [22:03] Hi, I have a strange bug since I upgraded to Karmic. The USB receiver of my mouse just keeps turning on and off, which blocks the mouse. Any idea? [22:03] losha: no luck, even tried different dns server, same result [22:03] hkm, do you need help? [22:03] slhsen: and the default route shown by netstat -rn [22:04] mage_: I can work on it, I just need to know if it's possible [22:04] hi [22:04] hellyes: I've been using \\192.168.0.10 for the past 10 years [22:04] ajunior: please don't use swear words here [22:04] How can I know which files/partitions are encrypted? I want to copy all encrypted files to an un-encrypted partition before re-installing ubuntu [22:04] yep [22:04] hellyes: i gave up on netbios resolution even with straight windows [22:04] what do i need to run a 32bit applications? i have 64bit ubuntu right now [22:04] is it possible to convert ubuntu into xubuntu?

[22:05] dan___, try disabling the effects and closing and then trying again [22:05] phixxor: after you install xfce, you can have the choice of using either. [22:05] losha: http://paste.ubuntu.com/305447/ [22:05] phixxor: i'd leave ubuntu-desktop personally [22:05] i need help configuring pulseaudio, everytime I try to listen to music or play streaming media, it messes up.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [22:07] anyone here running karmic moblin remix? [22:07] Ok, I have currently a WinVista (sucks) installation on my Toshiba Satellite A300 Laptop. I'd like to use Ubuntu as the primary O/S, but cause of Adobe stuff (:( ) should keep a Vista Installation. [22:07] arand exactly [22:07] slhsen: yes, provided you have a router at 192.168.1.1. Do you? [22:07] Is anyone else having trouble getting DNS to resolve over wirless with Ubuntu 9.10 KARMIC [22:07] Yay! Did I get it? Did my system finally upgrade successfully? [22:07] !ask audacity [22:07] Sorry, I don't know anything about ask audacity [22:07] What would you suggest me doing? [22:08] dreambox: install ubuntu [22:08] (shit it's crazy in this channel..) [22:08] losha: thats correct [22:08] dreambox, like what [22:08] as 2nd system [22:08] dreambox, Adobe CS? There are no linux versions... [22:08] !ohmy | dreambox [22:08] dreambox: Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures. Basically, this means no foul language and no abuse towards others. [22:08] Berzerker that's why I'm keeping a Windows partition.. [22:08] dreambox, that's your best bet [22:08] slhsen: Did thjs setup work previously? If so, power cycle the router :-) [22:08] arand: any idéas? [22:08] hello people,I want some help with a couple of things that I can't make to work [22:09] dreambox: because of 'few' apps i got my old xp running [22:09] Berzerker I do graphics, wouldn't risk on not having fully functional Adobe CS on my machine no... [22:09] lxn: go ahead [22:09] dreambox, split your vista partition in at least 2 [22:09] Fager: you need to add an option: gfxpayload=***x*** to the grub boot line [22:09] but i spent 90% of time using linux [22:09] until now [22:09] is there a native IRC client on ubuntu? [22:09] hellyes: hell yes [22:09] ;-) [22:09] Voldenet : thing is I'm confused as how to do the partitioning, what to keep, what to format, what to backup ..... [22:09] losha: both worked with 9.04 and windows, power cycle? sorry dont get it [22:09] Fager: eg 1024x768 [22:09] xchat is [22:09] hellyes: native? [22:09] arand. Ok thanks [22:09] dreambox: backup nothing [22:09] hellyes: are you running mirc in wine? :) [22:09] dreambox, that's why I told you that keeping dual booting was your best bet [22:10] just use resize [22:10] hellyes: I don't believe any come preinstalled -- except maybe pidgin or empathy might have irc plugins [22:10] in gparted [22:10] mirc [22:10] Which xorg package has nvidia support? How does that work? [22:10] I want to use clonzilla from ubuntu and I found on ubuntu forums the solution,BUT I can't make the launcher to start clonezilla [22:10] and create 2nd partition [22:10] dreambox, I would backup just in case [22:10] hellyes is running obvious [22:10] Voldenet : I can Resize ?? [22:10] hellyes: there are tons of irc programs that run native in ubuntu though [22:10] lxn: you should use partimage instead [22:10] dreambox: Yes, NTFS partitions can be resized. [22:10] Voldenet isn't resizing an NTFS partition risky business ? [22:10] phixxor: are there any that are pre-installed? [22:10] dreambox: hmm... maybe [22:10] i tried that 8 times [22:10] Alright i just tried, didn't fix it [22:11] and screwed only once [22:11] ;P [22:11] dreambox, always backup before messing with partition [22:11] dreambox, no, just as risky as any partition operation, if your data is important, back it up [22:11] Voldenet : what should I be careful for? [22:11] bit of a puzzle here, perhaps someone can explain this; when we look at top there are process like pdflush which don't appear on a pstree.. how does that work? [22:11] slhsen: usually a situation like this is because when you first send packets, you get an arp table entry for the next hop. The router provides that. I suspect it's gotten 'stuck'.... [22:11] hellyes: pidgin came preinstalled with 9.04, I don't know if empathy has irc, but you could check [22:11] dreambox: be patient, that's all [22:11] empathy has irc [22:11] !nvidia | lws [22:11] lws: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [22:11] Im on it now [22:11] well,I used a lot in the past partimage but with ext4fs it did't work quite well [22:11] I am.. although i have only one weekend. :) So , "gparted" . How where do I get this [22:11] HELP: I clicked "Normal Effects" and accidentally clicked cancel on 'searching for drivers' and now it never searches even though they are there [22:11] mathepic: hellyes: there you go then. empathy has irc :) [22:11] start ubuntu cd [22:11] dreambox, again, I would backup just in case. [22:11] is there a way to reset gnome-settings or something? [22:11] dreambox, you never know what might happen. [22:12] dreambox: if you got important data [22:12] phixxor: thanx! [22:12] i'd backup them [22:12] Okay I ll get myself an external .. [22:12] it's a chance to screw everything up ;-) [22:12] So, how do I begin the process, [22:12] dreambox, but you can download a live CD of ubuntu and run that [22:12] start with ubuntu live cd [22:12] that comes with gparted installed on it [22:12] hellyes: no prob! [22:12] I downloaded the new .iso [22:12] anyone having bluetooth headset problems with 9.10? [22:12] dan___, your trying to reset gnome to default? [22:12] start apps > terminal [22:12] or sth like that [22:12] and write gparted there [22:12] if you loose power while partitioning you are probably screwed [22:13] I was thinking of going directly with the install cd , [22:13] an gui should appear [22:13] Voldenet, please...stop [22:13] slhsen: sorry. I'm out of time & have to go. Good luck! [22:13] Voldenet: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [22:13] dan___: you could always go into hardware drivers and install tyhe drivers there [22:13] hello everyone [22:13] doesn't this take care of the partitioning thing ? [22:13] dreambox, when you boot into the CD, go to System > Administration > Partition Editor [22:13] arand they are already installed [22:13] dreambox, that's GParted [22:13] what file is used to store the keyring that NetworkManager needs for VPN connections? I'm reinstalling and can't find the old keyring in my backup [22:13] ctmjr I accidentally clicked cancel on searching for driver when switching between normal and no effects [22:13] anyone knowing enough about couchdb to help me ? [22:13] ctmjr now they never search for them [22:14] ctmjr i think resetting something will fix this [22:14] why in 9.10 cant I disable gdm , in 9.0.4 I could [22:14] can one change the login dialog in karmic?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [22:14] Can someone please tell me how to reset the main menu to defaults? Revert in Menu preferences does not work [22:14] Berzerker : Why should I go through the LIVE CD process? Can't I do it directly with the Install iso of the latest version? [22:14] Fager, resizecons might work . it's different from when I last used console mode :) [22:14] ...so,to continue with my asking,I want to make a launcher for clonezilla.I tried one with the command :sudo gnome-terminal -x /home/a/Work/drbl/sbin/clonezilla ,butit dose't start [22:14] ctmjr when you click between normal and no effects does it search for drivers? [22:15] oh thanks a lot test34 [22:15] it dosen't start [22:15] dreambox, if you're going to resize a partition other than ubuntu, yes. [22:15] dreambox, the live cd is the regular install process [22:15] lekro: here it is .gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring [22:15] is there a good reason, why php5.3 didn't make it into ubuntu 9.10? [22:15] dreambox, you can't resize ubuntu on ubuntu. It doesn't work like that. [22:15] Ops ,lost ya [22:15] dreambox: resize partitions while not running off of them (livecd) [22:15] I just have Windows Vista on my machine right now... In case I wasn't clear !

[22:47] like windows taskbar..? [22:47] Whats good everyone? [22:47] LjL, Bodsda: That definitely did the trick. Interesting. [22:47] does anyone here read the drudge report?

[22:48] sven_oostenbrink: yes it should. The only reaosn that it would is if the entry is incorrect. I believe /etc/host trumps a DNS server but Im not certain [22:48] cobra: specify your problem, if someone knows they'll say.

In that case its ok, I want tell :) [22:49] KenBW2: er, 1.97 beta4 is 2, yeah. [22:50] sven_oostenbrink: strange one. Update the file, reboot and hope the planetary alignment sorts itself out?

Im on A but doing EVERYTHING on B...

I need some serious help with this.

[22:51] sven_oostenbrink: yes, that makes sense [22:51] KenBW2: There is nothing higher than GRUB 1.97b4 right now. If you want GRUB 2.0, you're out of luck. [22:51] sven_oostenbrink: you are working on box B from A via ssh, right? [22:51] sven_oostenbrink: thats not just weird, that sounds impossible if I understand networking correctly. Have you tried refreshing his browser cache? [22:51] Flannel: so was there never a v1? [22:51] arand..but i want one taskbar only [22:51] cobra: or just add the applets to one single panel, they're all add-able. [22:51] KenBW2: 1.99 == 2.0 - 0.01 [22:51] So is there a reason why every 30secs I hear a "noise" [22:51] it means beta [22:51] ;-) === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [22:51] KenBW2: No, 0.97: http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/tags/?root=grub [22:51] how to do this?

I'm sure that format was "unchecked" now I see that partition is empty :/ is anyway to recover that partition??? [22:53] how can I see from grub if i'm running efi grub or pc grub?

[22:54] sven_oostenbrink: oh, so the user had a proxy configured, not the laptop -- makes sense, cheers [22:55] Bodsda: exactly :) [22:55] unknown_: also, if you change the filesystem (eg ext3 to ext4) it'll be formatted [22:55] Hello - oh great Koala gods... got sound card problems (upgrade from Jaunty) - alsa seems to have them but they don't appear in the hardware list in the sound preferences - any suggestions for a semi-newbie (I've tried things in the forums with no joy) [22:55] Bodsda: thanks anyway [22:55] poet: ummm broadcom.....

[23:23] 1737.0070 [23:23] GhostWolfy: not without rebooting [23:23] Roey: "TORAM=yes" ref (last entry of): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/25496/comments/36 [23:23] GhostGum__: no...you will have to reboot each time..unless you do a vm [23:23] GhostWolfy, only with virtualization such as Xen or Virtualbox or vmware [23:24] Bodsda thats what i thought :S my windows hdd died [23:24] GhostWolfy: use VirtualBox and install Windows 7 in a virtual machine [23:24] did anyone install supergrubdisk on ubuntu? [23:24] GhostWolfy: and youll need yo repair grub if you already have ubuntu installed [23:24] Hi! Can I access Linux files from windows? I am using ext4 file system. [23:24] GhostWolfy: have you looked into virtualbox [23:24] lockd i don't have win7 i only have winxp [23:24] Hi, I have a strange bug since I upgraded to Karmic. The USB receiver of my mouse just keeps turning on and off, which blocks the mouse. Any idea? [23:24] mrkrow, no cause i only have a gig of ram [23:24] janhouse: yes, are you using a virtualbox [23:24] GhostWolfy: oh, I thought you said newest ubuntu and newest windows my mistake [23:24] Max-P, no idea, but you should file a bug report at launchpad [23:24] th1: Well how would i go about mounting an ntfs partition and copying my xorg.conf file to the drive all through command line. I am a good power user, but I am no Guru at the command line. [23:24] mrkrow, no [23:24] GhostWolfy: still the method is the same [23:24] lockd, no just the newest ubuntu [23:24] dual boot [23:24] Max-P, is there anything periodic in /var/log/syslog that coincides with that? try tail -f /var/log/syslog in a terminal and see [23:24] GhostWolfy: I think XP only needed 512. But still a prob. Hmmmm [23:25] hey does anyone know how to get a ranger plus wireless network usb adapter to work on ubuntu linux [23:25] mrkrow well i never did a vm before and wouldn't know how [23:25] whats my detriment from 32bit to 64bit [23:25] janhouse: so are you booting from a disk and trying to get the host files [23:25] janhouse: No luck there I think, I know there's a driver for doing ext3 but for ext4 I don't think.

It is like building a pretend machine. Very easy. you set up the HD, RAM and where to boot from. For instance an ISO or your host CD Rom [23:26] joaopinto: is there maybe an easy way of backing up to dvd?

I'l just make another ntfs partition and store files there. [23:26] arsenip: you choose through the menus at the login prompt [23:26] ASrock: on the login manager [23:26] Max-P, ok, wpa_supplicant is just scanning for wireless networks it's nothing with that [23:26] Can someone direct me to a guide on how I can disable pulseaudio and get the old (8/9.04) system.

[23:27] Bye ubuntu...going to an rpm distro lol [23:27] janhouse: yea, that's the normal solution afaik [23:27] th1: it's just like if the kernel was powering on/off all the time [23:27] janhouse: that would work too. sorry wasn't much help. I am still a newbie myself [23:27] Max-P, I'm not sure what it can be then [23:27] tesuki: sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio [23:27] ASrock, you do that at your login, which you can change at system > admin > login screen [23:27] tesuki: pulseaudio was default in 9.04 and 8.10 too [23:27] enduser000: hmmm [23:27] Max-P, if it was, it would probably show in the syslog [23:27] FFEMTcJ-> look into something like this http://samat.org/2007/01/28/sprints-evdo-mobile-broadband-on-ubuntu-linux [23:27] th1: and wherer is the log file located again?

Any ideas on how I could fix this? [23:37] gionnico-> what happens when you do a sudo apt-get install open-sshserver?

[23:37] th1: I will set it back to auto [23:37] It was so easy in grub-legacy :( [23:38] okay... So i "fixed" my flash player by installing the x64 one BUT one page makes it crash [23:38] Max-P, maybe the driver is being over intelligent and doesn't think the device is in use.. if you keep it in level and it solves your problem I'd settle for that ;) [23:38] before i fixed it, the pages was not crashing firefox [23:38] n8tuser: open-sshserver? [23:38] Brando753-> it can take you a few hours if downloading stuff right now, many are accessing same servers [23:38] not openssh-server ??

[23:42] farchumbre: hmmm [23:42] th1: I think I should repport that as a bug, like suggested by someone when I asked my question, but never did that =/ [23:42] Sharok: you could try loading the 32-bit version of flash with nspluginwrapper [23:42] bye guys [23:42] flash player is heavily bugged on my pc [23:42] bhuey: I dont believe there is a specific channel for it, but if it is an ubuntu issue, it can be raised here [23:42] astrojp: [23:42] ZachK_: My god, I feel like an idiot. :) That freaking worked! [23:43] Max-P, I think you should, but it's always worth investigating as much as possible before reporting :) and either way a workaround is good to have, until it can be fixed. be sure to include the USB ID of the device in the bug report [23:43] nspluginwrapper hum..... [23:43] astrojp: and it's ctrl + shift + v for pasting [23:43] Bodsda: the track page on my MacBook doesn't work with the latest Karmic === default_ is now known as acad2 [23:43] Hux Flux - Idiot :-D [23:43] th1: yeah but I never did bug reports so I wonder if it really worth it... [23:43] where do i find nspluginwrapper [23:43] astrojp: don't worry...it took me forever myself to get used to that... [23:43] Max-P, it's easy just type ubuntubug :) [23:43] bhuey: best to address the channel. I am no good with macs [23:43] Bodsda: ok [23:43] Sharok: sudo apt-get install nspluginwrapper [23:44] Max-P, sorry ubuntu-bug [23:44] has anybody tried karmic on a macbook 2.1 ? === joseph is now known as spasticteapot === default_ is now known as acad2 [23:44] thank you :) === obstriege is now known as obst [23:44] ubuntu seems to only be using one of my nic cards, how can i get it to use both? === PacketCollision is now known as PC|Away [23:44] I was wondering what can be done about the trackpad no working on that platform ? [23:44] it is already installed -.- [23:44] so im dead D: [23:44] that's ust about the only thing that's not working in that release. It was working in the previous jaunty install [23:44] hi does anyone know of a good banshee lyrics plugin for jaunty [23:45] ReAn: use both ? detect both or use both as if it were only one (bonding) [23:45] Sharok: not quite [23:45] ReAn: first: it's NIC, not "NIC Card". The C stands for card. anyhow, pastebin the output of ifconfig if you please. [23:45] Is anybody in here interested in getting their blackberry to work on Ubuntu? Looking for someone with a blackberry to test a new program. [23:45] Strange how the command to copy to clipboard also kills a process, always used Ctrl-C. Thanks again. [23:45] acad2: no not really [23:45] Sharok: check nspluginwrapper -l [23:45] Sharok, have you tried a linux program for flash ? [23:45] gerald_: default one does not work ? [23:45] ok [23:45] astrojp: no prob my man [23:45] linux program for flash? [23:45] astrojp: it is a design feature of BASH [23:45] REGISTER yoda42 wii.gii.2@gmail.com [23:45] astrojp, ctrl+c is not the command to copy to clipboard, selection of text is :) [23:45] how do i install b43 driver without internet? i know its fwcutter, but what do i do? please help [23:45] erUSUL, can you point me to the default one?

Thanks a lot [23:45] Sharok: flashplugin-nonfree or use gnash [23:45] usser: i got it... [23:45] gerald_: banshee-extension-lyrics [23:45] let me clarify, u have 2 nics in my machine, it listed both in the install, but when i use ifconfig it only displays eth0 and the loopback device [23:45] yup that worked [23:46] Max-P, you're welcome sorry I couldn't be of more help [23:46] th1: are you still here? [23:46] th3raid0r, yes [23:46] can anyone tell frm the top of their head how to configure gnome (well, metacity i guess) so if i grab a window with alt + right mouse i can resize it? [23:46] acad2, I would help you out, but I dont have a blackberry. Got a 2003se PPC though. [23:46] nonfree is bugged [23:46] gonna try gnash [23:46] anyone happen to know how i can decrypt pgp files in kde like i can in gnome? [23:46] after installing 9.10 when attempting to boot into new install, all i get is "press a key to reboot", what's gone wrong? [23:46] weegi, try again and use the server window; we all just saw that [23:46] th1: okay, here is my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/m503528c [23:46] Guys what i need do on 9.10 to check my hardware ? I cant find it on system->administraction [23:46] is there a task manager for ubuntu like the one in windows? [23:46] ASrock: System>Admin>system monitor [23:46] kc: ah did you just finish installing? [23:46] erUSUL, is it availbale through aptitude? [23:46] bazhang: lul, i know [23:46] brb [23:46] knoppies: thanks! unfortunately i need someone with a blackberry & linux. [23:46] how do i use fwcutter to install wireless drivers [23:46] ASrock: there top and htop for terminals [23:47] ZackK_: yes [23:47] ASrock: take a look at the 'top' and 'htop' commands - they are similar [23:47] gerald_: yes afaik [23:47] th1: It's stille better than nothing. It's the first time I get help on IRC. Many times before, I simply got no answers at all [23:47] acad2, you can put linux on a blackberry? [23:47] kc: have you removed the install cd yet? [23:47] ASrock, iftop for networking [23:47] th3raid0r, you need a line in Screen: Monitor "Default Monitor" [23:47] th3raid0r, for it to pull the monitor def into your screen config [23:47] ZackK_: yes, removed disk and reset boot order in bios [23:47] acad2: I have both [23:47] Is it a bad idea to install a display driver from Ati.com? Will this driver perhaps provide extra functionality compared to the proprietary fglrx driver? [23:47] Guys what i need do on 9.10 to check my hardware ? I cant find it on system->administraction [23:47] th1: and here is my log file http://pastebin.com/m12b39bd5 [23:47] knoppies: no no- connecting a blackberry to linux. syncing contacts, emails, etc. [23:47] bazhang: how? [23:48] JarlG: is a bad idea... [23:48] Hey, has anyone had an issue with gnome-do not starting on login with 9.10 and fixed it?? [23:48] acad2, thats what I thought you meant first time round. Sorry i cant help. [23:48] JarlG, driver from ati.com IS fglrx [23:48] weegi, lets go to #freenode for this [23:48] kc: well you didn't need to reorder bios boot configuration.... [23:48] it failed [23:48] erUSUL, thanks [23:48] Anyone have 9.10 on a 2133? [23:48] erUSUL: Okay, thanks. :) [23:48] exit [23:48] kay [23:48] why it is the only distro that flash NEVER works? [23:48] quit [23:48] Or any other platform using the proprietary Broadcom wireless driver? [23:48] Sharok: Wut? [23:48] th3raid0r, "No monitor specified for screen "Default Screen" Using a default monitor configuration. [23:48] lee_: your missing a '/' before the commands [23:48] usser: Aha, I had a SMALL hunch, thanks for confiming :) [23:48] ZachK_: also tried "boot from first hard disk" from install disk [23:48] th3raid0r, that's likely your probkem [23:48] erUSUL, by the way what does afaik mean? [23:49] Bodsda: would you be interested in testing this program? It is basically a package with a script & GUI around barry that auto-configures it (a few simple questions). [23:49] Sharok, i installed flash without problems on 9.10 [23:49] i've tried many flash player packages and they all fail [23:49] kc: hmmm [23:49] im on x64 [23:49] th3raid0r, if you add the line: Monitor "Default Monitor" into your Screen section it will probably work [23:49] th1: okay, i will adjust and come back with my results [23:49] Sharok, tried flash-nonfree? :-) [23:49] yes [23:49] th3raid0r, ok :) good luck [23:49] gerald_: afaik = as far as I know [23:49] Sharok: where did you install package from? [23:49] acad2: sorry I am busy. Send me an email on the forums, my nick is Bodsda. Ill take a look some other time [23:49] everything work fine except streaming video [23:49] i mean, watching streams [23:49] JarlG, ah thanks :) [23:49] Hi. I have no sound since I installed 9.10 (from scratch). [23:50] Juerd: ok [23:50] alsamixer shows no channels muted except microphone [23:50] Is there a way to get Alsa back to my default/ [23:50] Can anyone suggest a solution? :) [23:50] gerald_: afaik as far as i know [23:50] I installed ubuntu 9.10, I'm on a wired network, and my internet speeds are absolutely crap, I get about 30k/sec tops from any site. my local network speeds are still fast, but my internet is almost like it's capped at 30k, any ideas? [23:50] erUSUL, thanks [23:51] sabat: sorry, no. I'm trying to get wireless running on my 2133. [23:51] what's weird is it's 30k/sec TOTAL, I can hit multiple sites, and get multiple downloads going, but the total is never more than 30k/sec or so. [23:51] i left ubuntu many times because flash don't works -.- im sick of this [23:51] gstreamer is encounreing a general stream error for every video file i use [23:51] Q: hi want to dl the alternative install cd for x64 running intel [23:51] LordFDisk: you can uninstall all pulseaudio packages and install Debian's gnome-media packages (for volume control) [23:51] is it the same as amd64? [23:51] fokuslee302: no [23:51] LordFDisk: the little media keys still won't work unless you bind them manually [23:51] fokuslee302: er [23:52] can someone please help me figure out how to decrypt pgp files in kubuntu? [23:52] fokuslee302: yes is the same [23:52] fokuslee302: it is the same [23:52] sharok: what do you mean no flash? works fine for me, I had to install the amd64 flash player, but that took, maybe 30 seconds?

(click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) [23:52] thanks [23:52] i did and it crashes [23:52] nomopofomo: gpg --decrypt file [23:52] anyway, gonna eat, brb [23:52] erUSUL: thanks, is there a frontend for it? [23:52] losha, it's called toram? [23:53] I'm about to go back to 9.04, this internet speed is HORRIBLE [23:53] nomopofomo: i do not use kde probably there is some extension for konqueror or dolphin or whatever filemanager... [23:53] nomopofomo: ask in #kubuntu [23:53] and nobody seems to have ANY ideas :P [23:53] So! Karmic broke my network capability somehow. my Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 13) is working fine in the Jaunty live CD, but when I boot into Karmic it intermittently fails to recognize that an ethernet connection is present. I have restarted the networking service and network manager, and also looked for a module to unload and reload (there isn't one, apparently it's compiled in). The re [23:53] levant line in lspci is the same in Karmic as it is in Jaunty. If I reboot the system, it will sometimes recognize a connection and work fine until the next time I reboot, or I may reboot 3 or 4 times without resolving the issue. [23:53] sabat: see if there is a bug report pn launchpad. If not, file one [23:53] sabat, did you try the compat-wireless drivers? [23:53] erUSUL: i was :P nobody knows. thanks for putting me on the right track, pgp was doing nothing in software manager [23:54] #natal [23:54] I dont' have any wireless [23:54] !pastebin | qwyeth [23:54] qwyeth: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel.

[23:54] lockd, I have removed the pulseaudio and have no volume control ... so now it's on too the gnome-media packages ... so thank you I'll give it a try [23:54] this is wired, gigabit, I get 60mb/sec on my local network, and no more than 30k/sec over the internet, Even from ftp sites I used to get 500k/sec from [23:54] LordFDisk: yep, Ubuntu has removed gnome-volume-control.gstreamer [23:54] overall I think karmic is a huge success, there are lots of people who have some prolems but hey compare that to when MS releases a new version and they only do it every 3-4 years :) [23:54] sabat: same router/modem ? [23:54] ZachK_: a single comment that is all conversational with no code that happens to flow over to a second line doesn't call for pastebin, IMO [23:54] ya [23:55] LordFDisk: gnome-volume-control-applet is pulseaudio only, even in debian gnome-media === obiwan__ is now known as obiwan_ [23:55] what is wmaster0-00 network interface?

[23:57] sabat, lol :) [23:57] My wireless adapter doesn't work when I run the 686-multimedia real time kernel, though it works when I run the generic, how I would I get it to work? It's not listed when I lsusb, and I'm not sure what else to try.
