| frostburn | mikejet, click it and find out | 00:07 |

| Kingsy101 | does ubuntu 8.04 have a xvid codec built into it? | 00:22 |
| qq99 | frostburn: seems it can't even check the status of the drive's DMA | 00:22 |
| lockd | Kingsy101: gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg | 00:22 |
| erUSUL | mom: what was wrong with « pdftk 00*.pdf cat output output_file.pdf » ?? | 00:23 |
| wolf23 | anyone tell me about gfceu cannot work with ubuntu 9.10, anyida plz my child need to play games! | 00:23 |
| Kingsy101 | lockd - do I need to install that or is there by default? | 00:23 |
| lockd | Kingsy101: it's not built in, but that will support most codecs known in the modern world | 00:23 |
| Kingsy101 | ok cool | 00:23 |
| qq99 | frostburn: also thinking maybe my drive settings might factor in? I think it's set to AHCI | 00:23 |
| Kingsy101 | so just a sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg will do? | 00:23 |
| Wicked | hmm. anyone else having issues with flash under firefox or chrome with 9.10? all flash videos tend to stutter now and long videos tend to crap out after a few mins of playing | 00:23 |
| Kingsy101 | lockd - ^^^^ | 00:23 |
| drbobb | again asking for a hint: hibernate/suspend is not working on my system, the menu commands seem to do nothing - what might be the reason?? | 00:23 |
| frostburn | qq99, i know that hal has been deprecated, might have something to do with it | 00:23 |
| Wicked | !flash | 00:23 |

| erUSUL | timepilot: install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 00:24 |
| timepilot | i did | 00:24 |
| matu | please i want to download the 9.10 img and send it to disk | 00:24 |

| wolf23 | anyone tell me about gfceu cannot work with ubuntu 9.10, anyidea plz my child need to play games! | 00:25 |

| kisuke | how can i switch my desktop envirment? | 00:25 |
| lockd | Kingsy101: hmm, maybe in by default, that's odd, but it doesn't work? | 00:25 |
| The_Journey | my new ubuntu keeps hanging whenever I start firefox or other intensive application | 00:25 |
| mom | erUSUL, ive been reading about bash and was thinking of > that i just learned | 00:25 |
| frostburn | qq99 i'd suggest googling/posting on the forum, i've haven't an issue with setting it before =\ | 00:26 |
| timepilot | any other ideas? | 00:26 |
| drbobb | nerdy_kid: ina terminal window, plz type `dmesg | grep b43' | 00:26 |
| nerdy_kid | drbobb yeah but i copyed the url right out of the error log ... ok on sec | 00:26 |

| alid | I installed kubuntu 9.10 last night and it was all working. Today, for some reason, I am unable to play any video format. Except for youtube, none of my offline video files are being played. Any ideas? | 00:28 |
| n8tuser | alid try the vlc player | 00:28 |
| timepilot | alid: somewhat similar to my issue. mp3s wont play in rhythmbox but will in other apps. i agree w/ n8tuser, try another app. | 00:29 |
| alid | n8tuser: That's exactly how I am trying to play video. But vlc keeps saying: "vlc does not support the audio or video format ...." | 00:29 |
| timepilot | alid: then try mplayer | 00:29 |
| n8tuser | alid then perhaps convert it to become compatible | 00:30 |
| timepilot | n8tuser: it was working for him yesterday | 00:30 |
| alid | timepilot: I tried Dragon player, but it didn't work either. I think there should be something wrong with my codec packs. | 00:30 |
| drbobb | nerdy_kid: you could have d/l'ed the deb of b43-fwcutter on a different machine (or in windows) and installed it from a usb stick | 00:30 |
| myk_ | 64bit live on usb disk hangs after splash, anyone have any idea? | 00:30 |
| kankan_ | how to install xorg for intel? | 00:30 |
| drbobb | nerdy_kid: never mind, it still needs to download stuff to become operative, forgot that | 00:31 |
| frostburn | myk_, hangs on mine with iso too, i installed an older version and ugpraded to 9.10 | 00:31 |
| nerdy_kid | drbobb yeah lol | 00:31 |
| n8tuser | timepilot-> perhap he changed some configs.. same file he tried to play yesterday? | 00:31 |
| alid | n8tuser: I was able to play all video formats last night. I really don't what wrong I have done from last night. | 00:31 |
| BoredKender | noob question... how do i comment out something? | 00:31 |
| th1 | kankan_, it should get installed by default | 00:31 |
| SeaPhor | why would it play in the last release and not in this?? i thought this was a "growth" not a z"lets change stuff just to change it"... | 00:31 |
| myk_ | thanks frostburn, thats the info I was looking for, I will wait till they fix it. | 00:31 |
| frostburn | BoredKender, comment out where | 00:31 |
| th1 | BoredKender, it depends which file it is :) | 00:31 |
| BoredKender | a .conf file | 00:31 |
| th1 | BoredKender, often it's a "#" in the start of the line | 00:32 |
| th1 | BoredKender, but it varies from program to program | 00:32 |
| n8tuser | alid updates? anything you installed? | 00:32 |
| frostburn | BoredKender, it depends on the application, typically it's a #, but all recognize it | 00:32 |
| BoredKender | thank you, i think that is corect | 00:32 |
| th1 | BoredKender, for XML files it's "<!-- comment -->" | 00:32 |
| BoredKender | gonna restart and see if it fixes it | 00:32 |
| === BoredKender is now known as TheCheeze | ||
| alid | n8tuser: I installed a lot of things. And yes, I just updated the system. | 00:32 |
| myk_ | frostburn, thanks again, I am out! | 00:32 |
| drbobb | th1: an xml file wouldn't usually be called like *.conf | 00:32 |
| th1 | drbobb, sometimes they are ;) | 00:33 |
| th1 | drbobb, like the xmltv files | 00:33 |
| n8tuser | alid that certainly could have changed your settings.. | 00:33 |
| drbobb | th1: that's perverse :P | 00:33 |
| JediMaster | anyone happen to know how to make the nvidia x server setting permanent? It can't write to the xorg.conf file | 00:33 |
| alid | n8tuser: Can I roll back?! | 00:33 |
| AAA_awright | What do I use to see what packages I have installed? | 00:33 |
| n8tuser | alid i am not aware of any rollback that works | 00:33 |
| agent_j | i'm planning on upgrading to 9.10 next week, and i have atheros wireless; how much trouble am i in for? | 00:33 |
| justdave | huh, I removed pulseaudio and now my sound works. :| | 00:34 |
| Turl | AAA_awright: a package manager? try synaptic | 00:34 |
| justdave | that's probably not optimal | 00:34 |
| alid | :( | 00:34 |
| AAA_awright | I can get a list of installed packages, but that isn't the same. | 00:34 |
| n8tuser | AAA_awright-> dpkg -l | 00:34 |
| Pritesh | AAA_awright : dpkg -l | 00:34 |
| th1 | drbobb, yeah but the funny thing is that most of the xmltv config files aren't even in xml ;) | 00:34 |
| * justdave wonders what was hosed in pulse's config | 00:34 | |
| Pritesh | what a timing ..lol | 00:34 |
| Kohnrad82 | anyone else with longer boot times in 9.10? | 00:34 |
| jason__ | has anyone figured out how to renable ctrl alt backspace in xubuntu 9.10? | 00:34 |
| nowimproved | no the boot times are nice, its gdm that is slow as hell | 00:34 |
| JediMaster | jason__, it's in the keyboard settings | 00:34 |
| spO | how do i install i386 arch dshowserver on an 64 bit system ? I have the .deb file | 00:34 |
| pappanz | hi. after upgrade to 9.10 I have no audio anymore. I can't execute either amixer or alsamixer and the device is "dummy audio card" although in lsmod I can see "snd_intel8x0" | 00:35 |
| JediMaster | jason__, literally did it 30 sec ago | 00:35 |
| th1 | jason__, isn't it an xorg.conf option that was already disabled by default in 9.04? | 00:35 |
| jbu | hi all, just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 and no sound and no hardware appears under preferences->sound.../var/log/messages & dmesg show any egregious errors but then again I'm not familiar with a lot of it. Can anyone help? I have realtek sound hw | 00:35 |
| jbu | don't show any * | 00:35 |
| jason__ | JediMaster, did you do it for xubuntu? | 00:35 |
| KenBW2 | How do I replace Pulseaudio? | 00:35 |
| JediMaster | jason__, no, sorry standard ubuntu 9.10 | 00:35 |
| Kohnrad82 | my boot time is almost 2 min now. wayyyyyyy longer than 9.04 | 00:35 |
| * th1 thinks there needs to be a "No sound in 9.10" and "How do I disable pulseaudio" FAQ | 00:35 | |
| JediMaster | Kohnrad82, 25-30 sec here, faster for me | 00:35 |
| jason__ | JediMaster, its cool, cant figure it out for the life of me | 00:36 |
| th1 | BoredKender, did it work :) | 00:36 |
| nerdy_kid | drbobb ok restarting | 00:36 |
| bj0 | jason__, it's like DontZap or something | 00:36 |
| Shwack | What is the best game to get in Software Center? | 00:36 |
| JediMaster | no, dontzap isn't on 9.10 | 00:36 |
| JediMaster | just checked | 00:36 |
| AAA_awright | n8tuser Pritesh: Yeah that's all installed packages. What about the ones I installed? | 00:36 |
| KenBW2 | th1: i have sound, it's just too buggy | 00:36 |
| jason__ | yea its not there | 00:36 |
| pappanz | th1, so is there a conflict between alsa and pulseaudio? | 00:36 |
| sharperguy | Anyone else having trouble in 9.10 with the volume control applet? As in, there isn't one, even in the add-to-panel menu? | 00:36 |
| AAA_awright | I know it keeps track *somewhere* | 00:36 |
| devon | so when does the next alpha come out? | 00:36 |
| fager | Hi all | 00:36 |
| n8tuser | AAA_awright-> is it managed via dpkg? | 00:36 |
| frostburn | sp0, you can force it at the commandline, i don't recall the switch, make sure you have the lib32 libraries as well, there's tons of documentation on it | 00:37 |
| KenBW2 | sharperguy: it in the notification area... | 00:37 |
| th1 | pappanz, pulseaudio is a layer above alsa so technically no.. but pulseaudio is buggy so in practice yes that's what it amounts to | 00:37 |
| p-f | sharperguy, there was one on mine until I disabled it because it's so buggy | 00:37 |
| sharperguy | KenBW2, I don't see one | 00:37 |
| devon | is there a volume control applet for JACK? | 00:37 |
| KenBW2 | next to the network icon? | 00:37 |
| felixsulla | How do you execute a .run file from the command line? | 00:37 |
| KenBW2 | sharperguy: next to the network icon? | 00:37 |
| fager | I need help with my ATI drivers on 9.10. How do I install them? system -> admin -> hardwaredrivers won't find anything | 00:37 |
| th1 | felipe_, sh filename.run | 00:37 |
| AAA_awright | n8tuser: Default setup, yeah, apt-get (that's dpkg-based yes?) | 00:37 |
| pappanz | th1, is there a workaround at the moment for the problem? I guess it is quite widespread, as it affects intel audio cards | 00:37 |
| drbobb | hello once again asking for help in debugging my issues with suspend & hibernate, which kind of just stopped working.. does anyone have any idea what is invoked when i choose 'suspend' from the gnome menu, and how do i figure out why it fails? | 00:37 |
| joaopinto | fager, which card model ? | 00:37 |
| n8tuser | AAA_awright-> yes, apt-get has dpkg behind it | 00:37 |
| sharperguy | KenBW2, Nope. I did upgrade though. Maybe it's because I disabled pulseaudio a while back | 00:38 |
| p-f | felixsulla, most like with sh, but you could double check by doing "file your_file", which will tell you what kind of file it really is | 00:38 |
| p-f | likely* | 00:38 |
| nerdy_kid | drbobb YESSSS thank u SO much | 00:38 |
| drbobb | nerdy_kid: worx? | 00:38 |
| KenBW2 | sharperguy: pass, i did a clean install | 00:38 |
| sharperguy | hmm | 00:38 |
| felixsulla | Thanks everyone. | 00:38 |
| sharperguy | Well right now I have to control the volume with alsamixer | 00:38 |
| nerdy_kid | drbobb yes worked perfectly thanks a TON man :D | 00:38 |
| KenBW2 | th1: so how do i replace it? | 00:38 |
| BoredKender | not sure yet th1. nobody has triggered a sound yet | 00:38 |
| drbobb | nerdy_kid: 'K, have a drink to celebrate ;) | 00:38 |
| agent_j | Shwack: get Battle for Wesnoth and BZFlag, and also an FPS game of some kind. | 00:39 |
| th1 | pappanz, you can disable pulseaudio but then your volume control applet won't work. if that doesn't bother you can put autospawn=no in /etc/pulse/client.conf and kill pulseaudio | 00:39 |
| BoredKender | why is my s-xhat icon nit staying int the tray though? | 00:39 |
| * Xcell pours nerdy_kid a drink | 00:39 | |
| nerdy_kid | lol to young ; only 16 lol | 00:39 |
| Shwack | agnent_J: thx | 00:39 |
| fager | joaopinto: its a radeon 9600 | 00:39 |
| drbobb | nerdy_kid: duh, sorry ;) | 00:39 |
| pappanz | th1, isn't that strange? I mean, it should be a problem of the beta-stage, but it went straight to the final release | 00:39 |
| th1 | KenBW2, it needs to be fixed in a better way :( | 00:40 |
| Kurious | bluetooth and karmic ... tried to connect .. beats once then turns itself off | 00:40 |
| th1 | there is none at the moment | 00:40 |
| jbu | th1, if i change autospawn to "no" do i need to remove that semicolon in the beginning of the line? | 00:40 |
| fager | I did download and install the packages but I can't run aticonfig | 00:40 |
| nerdy_kid | drbobb lol its the thought that counts right?! haha | 00:40 |
| th1 | I'm thinking of creating a PPA | 00:40 |
| Take0n | is there any guitar apps for ubuntu? | 00:40 |
| th1 | jbu yes | 00:40 |
| jbu | th1, nevermind, looks like i do...it's a comment | 00:40 |
| Lym | Does it make a difference if I just upgrade to the official release from the beta or if I do a clean install? | 00:40 |
| mattgyver | Conky keeps crashing in 9.10, anyone else having that issue? | 00:40 |
| BoredKender | th1- nope. still crackling a little :( | 00:40 |
| sharperguy | Take0n, What kind of guitar app? Like tab display? | 00:40 |
| joaopinto | fager, is that an old model ? one of those which is no longer supported by the ATI drivers ? | 00:40 |
| th1 | BoredKender, it could be alsa too | 00:41 |
| joaopinto | Lym, a clean install is prefered | 00:41 |
| BoredKender | but i am sure that was the correct way to comment out as it was used elsewhere in the file | 00:41 |
| KenBW2 | th1: in Hardy i just switched all the dropdowns in System > Preferences > Sound to ALSA, but they're no longer ther ein Karmic - what's the equivalent? | 00:41 |
| evon | I am trying to set up an ftp server but I am having trouble with it because I have a dynamic ip. Can anyone help me make my dynamic ip a static one? | 00:41 |
| fager | joaopinto: yhea, its an old card. Is there no need for me to install the drivers? | 00:41 |
| th1 | KenBW2, yes, problem is that karmic is pretty much pulse centric and there is no easy way to switch it off completely | 00:41 |
| qq99 | apparently, DMA doesn't work for SATA drives anyway... so that was why... but why is my file operation so slow / cause IOWait to kill performance so badly? | 00:41 |
| Take0n | sharperguy, I don't know.. I had one on windows long time ago.. it had different songs like from metallica etc (many many artists and groups) and it showed the tabs or chords as it played the song.. | 00:41 |
| BoredKender | th1 i am having all kinds of fits trying to track down how to fix this. have been going at it for almost 24 hours (sleep time included) | 00:41 |
| Take0n | something like that.. | 00:41 |
| Xcell | KenBW2- i think that switch is in gstreamer settings | 00:41 |
| th1 | I am thinking they made the wrong decision there since pulse is still buggy for many | 00:41 |
| joaopinto | fager, there are no 3D Capable drivers available any longer, ATI dropped support for them, for those older models | 00:41 |
| drbobb | duh, does nobody really have a clue how to debug issues w/suspend? | 00:42 |
| Take0n | something that could help me learn.. | 00:42 |
| BoredKender | th1 please pm me sith suggestions, i gotta put the kids to sleep | 00:42 |
| KenBW2 | th1: so put up or shut up (literally)? | 00:42 |
| Take0n | except of ebooks and a teacher :P | 00:42 |
| test34 | wow ecryptfs is very slow | 00:42 |
| th1 | KenBW2, yeah or force-uninstall pulseaudio :) | 00:42 |
| th1 | KenBW2, all you lose is the volume control applet and that can be worked around e.g. with alsamixer | 00:42 |
| Xcell | KenBW2- i have not tried it but take a look in gstreamer-properties | 00:42 |
| Flannel | KenBW2: Please remain polite, thanks | 00:42 |
| KenBW2 | th1: i may have already apt-get removed pulseaudio | 00:42 |
| sharperguy | Take0n, Hmm. Well the closest thing I can think to that is TuxGuitar. Which basically just lets you view guitar tab files which you can get from certain websites (often for free). You can get it to play the midi version of the song although I don't think it syncs to the real song. | 00:43 |
| th1 | Flannel, there was nothing impolite in KenBW2's message | 00:43 |
| KenBW2 | Flannel: it wasn't meant with unpolite intent | 00:43 |
| fager | joaopinto: so I can uninstall the drivers and software for ati? | 00:43 |
| Flannel | KenBW2, th1: Alright | 00:43 |
| jdsandeson | Anyone know how to get karmic to do remote logg in? | 00:43 |
| VladTheImpaled | what is the best way to extract and download video from YouTube, and then convert it to a format that OpenOffice presentation can use to include it in a presentation? | 00:43 |
| Take0n | TuxGuitar huh? Is it free? | 00:43 |
| kyle__ | has anyone heard of flash not being able to pause because of something on ubuntu 9.04 | 00:43 |
| joaopinto | fager, you dont need to uninstall nothing | 00:43 |
| KenBW2 | th1: if pulseaudio is removed and my volume control applet is still working is it waiting for a restart? | 00:44 |
| Xcell | yes | 00:44 |
| kyentei | kyle__:nope, always worked just fine for me. Works smooth on 9.10 now too! | 00:44 |
| th1 | KenBW2, yes you can pkill -9 pulse to make sure | 00:44 |
| kyle__ | i just upgraded to 9.04 and the videos upload and play fine its just i cant pause them or use any of the other comands | 00:45 |
| kebomix | how to install ati driver on ubuntu 9.10 ? | 00:45 |
| KenBW2 | th1: well now that you tell me i can't have the applet i'd rather put up with pulseaudio | 00:45 |
| icehawk78 | I've set a static IP and now can't get online out, but can still connect into it from outside, but could when I got info from DHCP. Is there something I need to set besides /etc/network/interfaces? | 00:45 |
| th1 | KenBW2, that's what I ended up with as well | 00:45 |
| kyentei | kyle__:You are talking about YouTube I suppose? | 00:45 |
| th1 | I just wish the old applet was still around or installable | 00:45 |

| kyle__ | ya. and everyother video playing site | 00:46 |
| th1 | dr3mro_, which codec? | 00:46 |
| KenBW2 | th1: argh, why make half-baked software mandatory | 00:46 |
| erUSUL | icehawk78: what error you get when you try to ocnnect ? maybe no DNS's ? or the route lacks a default gateaway ? | 00:46 |
| kyentei | kyle__:Adobe Flash you said? Have you tried re-installing the Addon? (I suppose you are using Firefox) | 00:46 |
| VladTheImpaled | kyle: the YouTube videos should be FLV files, which VLC can play and pause ok | 00:46 |
| th1 | KenBW2, it's also what I question.. | 00:46 |
| th3raid0r | th1, nothing worked | 00:46 |
| lockd | KenBW2: while the applet is kind of nice, I'd rather not use 200% CPU time on running some ill behaved ALSA apps | 00:46 |
| fager | joaopinto: What can I do to get better performance of my old ati card now? | 00:46 |

| lockd | KenBW2: note, if you set your pulseaudio to dmix/dsnoop, you can run traditional alsa apps just fine, but the volume control won't control them | 00:47 |
| ubottu | Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 00:47 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: is that why sound hangs when i do something CPU intensive? | 00:47 |
| kebomix | how to install ati driver on ubuntu 9.10 ? | 00:47 |
| kyle__ | ya. i tried reinstalling but i get some error message because i have a 64bit and there is some pluginn deal that i dont know how to use. do you know anything about it? | 00:47 |
| th3raid0r | th1, for some odd reason xorg was spouting errors about invalid entries and that it couldn't parse xorg.conf | 00:47 |
| lockd | KenBW2: yep | 00:47 |
| Take0n | sharperguy, thank you very much! | 00:47 |

| jbu_ | is there a sound problems ubuntu faq page, anyone? | 00:48 |
| th1 | th3raid0r, I couldn't find better docs from the fglrx driver ... but look in /usr/share/doc/fglrx/driverfaq.html | 00:48 |
| KenBW2 | th1: i suppose you could apply the same question to NotifyOSD and that envelope in the notification area | 00:48 |
| lockd | KenBW2: ALSA can do that too, of course, since Linux isn't realtime. but it's less noticeable | 00:48 |
| erUSUL | !sound | 00:48 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 00:48 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: all i see is that alsa never did it for me but PA is doing | 00:48 |
| icehawk78 | erUSUL: "Could not resolve" | 00:48 |
| th1 | KenBW2, yes but at least they just sit there and do little harm | 00:48 |
| kyentei | kyle__: I do not have a direct answer for you. You could try the VLC suggestion which was suggested above. Or you could try and find another alternative on flash players. Though, I'm pretty sure the Adobe website should have just the right package for you. | 00:48 |
| KenBW2 | th1: apart from make simple operations take more clicks | 00:48 |
| lockd | KenBW2: what I do? Just remove pulseaudio, install gnome-media from Debian Sid | 00:48 |
| th1 | I mean overall Karmic is great but the decision to go all-out with pulseaudio was imho plain wrong | 00:49 |
| erUSUL | icehawk78: then the problem is with DNS's probably the dhcpd server provided them | 00:49 |
| lockd | th1: not Ubuntu's decision | 00:49 |
| th1 | lockd, whose then? | 00:49 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: but the volume control applet is pretty important to me :( | 00:49 |
| nerdy_kid | hey guys, what flash package should i install? ive tryed adobe but it lags big time in fullscreen... | 00:49 |
| lockd | th1: Gnome | 00:49 |
| lockd | KenBW2: well, you get a volume control applet that you can add to the panel with gnome-media from Sid | 00:49 |
| g0th_ | hi | 00:49 |
| th1 | lockd, ubuntu has a lot of clout in that sort of thing :) we could have said "forget it we're not having it" and kept a patch queue against it | 00:49 |
| g0th_ | I upgraded to karmic | 00:49 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: oh you mean use actual debian packages on ubuntu? | 00:50 |
| dr3mro_ | th1 all | 00:50 |
| th1 | lockd, pulseaudio is simply not ready for the mainstream | 00:50 |
| lockd | KenBW2: yes, exactly | 00:50 |
| g0th_ | but somehow all my mail settings vannished. Where can I find them? | 00:50 |
| g0th_ | I used shredder | 00:50 |
| === liyingqiao is now known as lyq88 | ||
| KenBW2 | lockd: any issues i should know about? | 00:50 |
| icehawk78 | erUSUL: Is there something that I can look for to set that, then? | 00:50 |
| th1 | the only good thing is that pulseaudio has actually got a lot better in the last 3 months because of this | 00:50 |
| erUSUL | icehawk78: add a line like "dns-nameservers ip_dns_1 i_dns_2" to interfaces in the apropiate section | 00:50 |
| lockd | th1: and ALSA just barely. it has better device support but is not quite as useful as OSS | 00:50 |
| th1 | e.g. now it works ok with my Eee 1000he | 00:50 |
| fede1 | hi i'm uploading a problem from the pidgin integrated tool | 00:50 |
| lockd | th1: and believe me it's even harder to switch all packages to use OSS | 00:50 |
| th1 | lockd, Alsa is fine.. and so is pulseaudio it's just not ready for mainstream yet | 00:51 |
| lockd | KenBW2: you have to define the media-keys yourself, or use xfce4-volumed | 00:51 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| KenBW2 | lockd: media keys? | 00:51 |
| th1 | there's nothing wrong with pulseaudio as a concept it's just too buggy yet | 00:51 |
| fede1 | the problem information will contain other info regarding telepathy or just pidgin? | 00:51 |
| lockd | KenBW2: well,if your keyboard or sound card has buttons that let you set the volume | 00:51 |
| g0th_ | I upgraded to karmic. Before I used the shredder mail client, after the upgrade to karmic I dont find my mail settings anymore. How do I get them back? | 00:51 |
| g0th_ | That involves over 1GB mail data | 00:52 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: meh, i never use them anyway | 00:52 |
| AussieGuy | My ubuntu upgrade was interrupted due to the fact that I was running gdm at the same time as the upgrade. I had to terminate gdm to configure certain packages, which interrupted the upgrade. Now ive done a full partial-upgrade. My system boots and has all kinds of display and network problems | 00:52 |
| AussieGuy | is it possible to re-run the upgrade to karmic? | 00:52 |
| th1 | g0th_, can't you get the shredder client back? | 00:52 |
| g0th_ | th1: how? | 00:52 |
| th1 | g0th_, from Software Center? | 00:52 |
| g0th_ | it is not listed | 00:52 |
| g0th_ | only thunderbird | 00:52 |
| teicah | how to launch upstart graphical interface? | 00:52 |
| th1 | g0th_, maybe it's deprecated | 00:53 |
| drbobb | hello I need some help debugging issues with suspend/hibernate!! | 00:53 |
| g0th_ | I dont know what is the case | 00:53 |
| g0th_ | I just want to know where I can find my mail data | 00:53 |
| th1 | g0th_, I never used it | 00:53 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: am i adding a repo or just installing a/some .deb's? | 00:53 |
| g0th_ | it is certainly not deprecated | 00:53 |
| AussieGuy | DNS problems abound, dhclient wont find my network adapter, one tty is full of strange and unusual characters | 00:53 |
| g0th_ | but maybe the name changed since they made an official release | 00:53 |
| th1 | g0th_, I can't even find it from aptitude search | 00:53 |
| g0th_ | or something like that | 00:53 |
| erUSUL | g0th_: shredder is TB 3 ? install that | 00:53 |
| kyentei | AussieGuy: Ubuntu and all other linux distro's are quite vulnerable to interruptions like that. I'd suggest you run a live-cd/usb and back-up the files you need. After that, run a complete, fresh install and learn from this mistake. | 00:53 |
| KenBW2 | g0th_: i'd assume it'd be in ~/.shredder in your old installation | 00:53 |
| ptc | In KDE, the application khotkeys offers a feature so I can bind a key shortcut to type out a string (e.g: when I press Win+H it types out "http://") ...Is there any similar application in Gnome? | 00:54 |
| g0th_ | I dont have that directory | 00:54 |
| lockd | KenBW2: just one deb | 00:54 |
| BoredKender | th1- so uninstalling pulse may help? | 00:54 |
| g0th_ | erUSUL: I installed TB 3 | 00:54 |
| th1 | g0th_, maybe its just thunderbird now and all you have to do is rename the directory? | 00:54 |
| lockd | KenBW2: http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gnome-media/gnome-media_2.28.1-1_amd64.deb | 00:54 |
| g0th_ | th1: which directory? | 00:54 |
| erUSUL | g0th_: but mail is missing ? | 00:54 |
| th1 | the one where the data files are stored | 00:54 |
| AussieGuy | there needs to be a warning not to run gdm (the program that runs X for most users), most users would take the upgrade offer | 00:54 |
| g0th_ | erUSUL: I had like 5 GB mail data | 00:54 |
| th1 | g0th_, but I don't know I'm just guessing here | 00:54 |
| AussieGuy | it should be run from a terminal, no X, no gdm | 00:54 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: im on 32 bit - i've found http://packages.debian.org/sid/gnome-media | 00:54 |
| AussieGuy | update-manager shouldnt even offer to upgrade it | 00:55 |
| lockd | oh oops, my mistake | 00:55 |
| g0th_ | erUSUL: not only mail missing, all the account settings too | 00:55 |
| AussieGuy | cos it runs on X | 00:55 |
| erUSUL | g0th_: that has to be easy to find... use the disk use analizer on your home dir | 00:55 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: so am i reinstalling pulseaudio before this deb? | 00:55 |
| g0th_ | disk use analizer? | 00:55 |
| kyentei | AussieGuy: are you saying that running X f'd up your upgrade? | 00:55 |
| lockd | KenBW2: i thought you removed pulseaudio and lost the mixer | 00:55 |
| ascheel | Anybody else having an issue with CPUFreq not starting up after upgrading 9.04 to 9.10? "The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_CPU_FreqApplet"." | 00:55 |
| AussieGuy | gdm which controls X | 00:55 |
| sabat | Why does ubuntu use pulse audio when 75% of the howto's/faq's/manuals say it sucks, you should remove it and use alsa/whatever instead... so why still have it default with ubuntu when EVERYONE out there making fixes and howto's says "step 1, disable pulseaudio," or is that ubuntu's attempt to be somewhat like microsoft and include faulty and weak extra's... sigh. | 00:56 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: mixer is still in Sound Preferences | 00:56 |
| alid | I just removed "libavcodec52" and "libformat52" and it spoiled my system. Now, I can't play any video or audio files. Is there any way to fix it (please)? | 00:56 |
| marcelcohrs | how do i look up my ip address via conseole in ubuntu 910 server? | 00:56 |
| AussieGuy | a configuration terminal popped up, saying gdm cannot be run at the same time as this reconfiguration | 00:56 |
| marcelcohrs | whats the command? | 00:56 |
| Blizzerand | I'm thinking of writing an article on Installing Ubuntu in Windows . So which title would be a betterr title , Install ubuntu with wubi or Install Ubuntu inside windows | 00:56 |
| ascheel | marcelcohrs: ifconfig | 00:56 |
| drbobb | g0th_: just look for a folder in your home dir that is over 5GB phat | 00:56 |
| kyentei | I see. It's too late for a solution now though. I don't think you can re-upgrade. It might be worth posting on the Ubuntu forums | 00:56 |
| marcelcohrs | @ ascheel | 00:56 |
| marcelcohrs | doesnt work | 00:56 |
| marcelcohrs | ? | 00:56 |
| erUSUL | marcelcohrs: ifconfig -a | 00:56 |

| * jbu_ gives up | 00:56 | |
| marcelcohrs | from wich director\y | 00:56 |
| qq99 | sabat: their goal to get people interested in linux, then disappoint that audience into making them create their own distros or modify others ;) | 00:56 |
| marcelcohrs | ? | 00:56 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: should i put PA back or leave as is | 00:56 |
| ColdLunch | Hey. | 00:56 |
| th1 | Blizzerand, since those who want to do that won't know what the 1st one means :) | 00:56 |
| ascheel | marcelcohrs: tell us more than 'doesn't work'. Why doesn't it work? What does it say? | 00:56 |
| fede1 | Blizzerand: the 2nd one ...or "install ubuntu like a app" | 00:56 |
| marcelcohrs | ? | 00:56 |
| FloodBot3 | marcelcohrs: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:56 |

| Blizzerand | th1 , thanks | 00:57 |

| galaxyinside | Hi people | 00:57 |
| ascheel | !ask | ColdLunch | 00:57 |
| ubottu | ColdLunch: 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. :-) | 00:57 |
| Blizzerand | fede1 : Thanks for the suggestion | 00:57 |
| sabat | qq99 that makes sense. I kinda consider the whole pulse-audio deal to be ubuntu trying ot be microsoft-like. | 00:57 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: Karmic | 00:57 |
| KenBW2 | ColdLunch: yea, if you put your problem | 00:57 |
| th1 | Blizzerand, if you do write it send me a mail with the url | 00:57 |
| lockd | KenBW2: karmic's mixer applet shouldn't work without pulseaudio, if it's still working pulse is probably still running | 00:57 |
| Nixed | Hi. I'm experiencing an issue with my new Karmic Install, which I may have narrowed down, but don't know how to fix. | 00:57 |
| ColdLunch | I am trying to install adobe-flashplugin to watch youtube videos, but whenever I try a popup box says "You can only have 1 software manager open at a time" | 00:57 |
| Blizzerand | th1 : w | 00:57 |
| g0th_ | drbobb: didnt find it | 00:57 |
| ColdLunch | but i only have one open!!! | 00:57 |
| sabat | i.e.: Let's include this, it doesn't work right yet, but if we use it we get more support calls! | 00:57 |
| beilabs | Karmic seems to have ruined my sound.....gnome-volume-control-applet doesnt work at alll... | 00:58 |
| qq99 | sabat: it's not a bad idea for a project, what would be cooler is if you could control streams.. like VOIP to my right ear, music to my left | 00:58 |
| Nixed | Karmic hang after it launches the desktop, but works fine with the proprietary driver everytime I startx in Recovery Mode. | 00:58 |
| Blizzerand | th1 : How do I know your email lol | 00:58 |
| ascheel | Can someone tell me the difference between Alsa and PulseAudio and why both are included? | 00:58 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: i'll put it back then before it realises it's gone :P | 00:58 |
| Nixed | Something is starting up with startx, that's causing it to hang on normal boot | 00:58 |
| erUSUL | marcelcohrs: you made a typo « ifconfig -a » ; « ip a » can be used too | 00:58 |
| sabat | I thin BoFH has somethign to do with the developement of pulse-audio. | 00:58 |
| BoredKender | restarting again | 00:58 |
| sabat | think* | 00:58 |
| nick125 | ascheel: PulseAudio is a program that "sits ontop" of ALSA. ALSA is a part of the kernel | 00:58 |
| Nixed | Anyone know where the startx file is called from on boot? | 00:58 |
| erUSUL | sabat: not true :) | 00:58 |
| g0th_ | I just dont find the data anymore | 00:58 |
| ascheel | nick125: gotcha. | 00:58 |
| g0th_ | I have no clue where it is | 00:59 |
| AussieGuy | Most users run gdm to control their X. Update-manager, which runs on X, offers to upgrade to karmic. There is a package which requires gdm (and therefore X) to be shut down in order to fully upgrade. Thats why update-manger should not offer to upgrade to karmic | 00:59 |
| g0th_ | I need those mail datas | 00:59 |
| sharperguy | Anyone have any idea how I can get the mixer back? I think it's to do with the fact that I disable pulseaudio a while back because it was causing way more problems than any benefit. | 00:59 |
| erUSUL | Nixed: startx is not called on boot. startx has to be called explixcity | 00:59 |
| g0th_ | they involve stuff from my work | 00:59 |

| nick125 | ascheel: The reason for using Pulseaudio is that it handles mixing and it also allows the user to do things, such as change the sound output of an application in real-time. | 00:59 |
| === Nightw0lf is now known as Nightwolf | ||
| Colonel_Panik | ColdLunch, use command line ps aux and see if you have a zombie process of update manager running | 00:59 |

| lockd | KenBW2: can you believe this developed as a part of Enlightenment which used to be a lightweight window manager? | 01:01 |

| galaxyinside | Hi people! I need your help please with a problem with Steam in ubuntu 9.10 | 01:02 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: so we gain the ability to vary the volme per-app | 01:02 |
| Xcell | mado- usually all you have to do is download the icon theme.. then go to themes and click install and navigate to where you downloaded it | 01:02 |
| erUSUL | g0th_: do you seea ~/.thunderbird/ folder in your home ? | 01:02 |
| lockd | KenBW2: true it's got more features like moving streams and being able to control the volume per app | 01:02 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: hardly worth sacrificing your CPU for | 01:02 |

| sharperguy | beilabs, Sound is fine but theres no volume control/mixer applet so I have to use alsamixer | 01:03 |
| mado | IndyGunFreak, i didn't download anything at all at the moment ... because i wanted to check for a gui-based tool that helps me to install new icons ... as far as i know i've seen something like this in KDE ... but i'm an apprentice ... so ... don't take my word for it | 01:03 |
| lockd | KenBW2: used to be proprietary, so it'll never get in kernel | 01:03 |
| erUSUL | g0th_: is a hiden folder you have to use "ls -a" in terminal or press crtl + h on nautilus to see it | 01:03 |
| g0th_ | erUSUL: no but .thunderbird-3.0 | 01:03 |
| KenBW2 | *used* to be? | 01:03 |
| hewlett | ciao a tutti | 01:03 |
| Nixed | erUSUL: I wan tto control the parameters it passes to X on booth. Something it initiates, causes my desktop to crash. When I startx from Recover Mode's Command Line, it works flawlessly | 01:03 |
| erUSUL | g0th_: and the mail is not there ? | 01:03 |
| g0th_ | some mail is | 01:03 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: surely if it's GPL now it can be in the kernel? | 01:03 |
| g0th_ | but if I start thunderbird it is not recognized | 01:04 |
| fede1 | mado: you can download the icon pack e drag it in the themes tool | 01:04 |
| g0th_ | ie. it asks me to fill in the account settings | 01:04 |
| beilabs | sharperguy, had the same issue. sharperguy, the way I got it to work was to delete the pulse audio cookie in the home directory...seemed to lock everything up. then kill all of pulseaudio, start it back up and then run gnome-volume-control from the console | 01:04 |
| lockd | KenBW2: well, Linus would have to approve. It's VERY hard to get "redundant" code into the kernel | 01:04 |
| mado | fede1, ... what do you mean? ... the ol' drag and drop? | 01:04 |
| fede1 | mado: yes | 01:04 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: redundant, as in when it already has ALSA? | 01:04 |
| galaxyinside | It's ok just give a channel in spanish for help. | 01:05 |
| erUSUL | Nixed: well the difference between gdm and startx is that gdm rads conf from xsession and startx read it from xinitrc | 01:05 |
| mom | erUSUL, fyi you can do ls $(< textfile) too | 01:05 |
| hewlett | eo | 01:05 |
| lockd | KenBW2: yes. and alsa has more hardware supported, so Linux would still need to keep it | 01:05 |
| mado | :) ... and which tab should be open? ... i mean ... there is nothing written for icons | 01:05 |
| th3raid0r | th1, I did it! yai *executes happy dance* | 01:05 |
| th1 | th3raid0r, excellent :) what was it? | 01:05 |

| Xcell | lol | 01:06 |
| th3raid0r | th1, I just had to read the documentation myself to see where to put those values. They all belong under device and they also require the Option "something" "argument" format. | 01:07 |
| fede1 | mado: ;) | 01:07 |
| mado | how could i miss this entry? | 01:07 |
| mado | well ... maybe i'm tired :) | 01:07 |
| MightyTweek | cecilia: go into synaptic and check which repository it's pointing to, you might want to try another one | 01:07 |
| th3raid0r | th1, I can forward you my xorg.conf file so you can help others if you like. | 01:07 |
| drbobb | g0th_: I would make a copy of the folder just in case, before launching any thunderbird or doing anything else on it | 01:07 |
| cecilia | how can i do this? | 01:07 |
| deusr_ | hi | 01:07 |
| cecilia | at synaptic? where should i look? | 01:07 |
| fede1 | mado: probably :) | 01:07 |
| th1 | th3raid0r, yeah please | 01:07 |
| lockd | KenBW2: yes, OSS/Boomer | 01:07 |
| MightyTweek | cecilia, go into System>Administration>Software Sources | 01:08 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: so im just installing this gnome-media as normal? | 01:08 |
| cecilia | alright | 01:08 |
| kankan_ | Nixed:ou stated a problem.may i know the problem? | 01:08 |
| mado | fede1, IndyGunFreak ... i'll probably have to ask some more things later or ... maybe after some sleep :) | 01:08 |
| hewlett | c'è qualcuno che mi capisce?? :-) | 01:08 |

| g0th_ | drbobb: too late but yeah I did a copy of .thunderbird-3.0 as soon as I realized there was something wrong (but I already started the client etc) | 01:08 |
| mickster04 | hey so no one else is getting repeated battery report problems when they turn on their laptops | 01:08 |

| Flannel | alid: Just reinstall them | 01:08 |
| TheCheeze|away | ok, uninstalled pulse... let's see what happens | 01:08 |
| erUSUL | g0th_: i would make a copy of the folder and then make some tsts if something goes wrong you still have the copy | 01:08 |
| fede1 | mado: if i will be there ok | 01:08 |
| norrec | mickster04, nope | 01:09 |
| lockd | KenBW2: if you're going to continue to use PulseAudio, you don't need to, but if you want to switch to just alsa, just install it with dpkg | 01:09 |
| mado | thanks fede1 | 01:09 |
| deusr_ | Does anyone know how I do to get the screen that appears when you install a new kernel? | 01:09 |
| mado | *smiles* | 01:09 |
| kankan_ | how to start X from recovery mode? | 01:09 |
| MightyTweek | alid, if ubuntu-desktop is not installed, install it, it should install everything you need | 01:09 |
| alid | Flannel: I tried but it gave me an error with respect to dependencies. | 01:09 |
| norrec | mickster04, whats the error? | 01:09 |
| mickster04 | norrec, hmm, anybody use and eee900 with the unr? | 01:09 |
| Flannel | alid: What error? | 01:09 |
| g0th_ | erUSUL: what would you try for tests? | 01:09 |
| hewlett | siccome sono nuovo di qst programma mi sapresti dire come cercare?? | 01:09 |
| bios | mickster04 - does it last for loong | 01:09 |
| bios | without power support | 01:09 |
| fede1 | hewlett: cosa devi cercare | 01:09 |
| cecilia | it didn't open... just like update manager... i'm having this sort of problem with some programs since yesterday | 01:09 |
| mickster04 | norrec, well it just reports the battery is at 1.4% yeah its last as normal, just at first it complains | 01:09 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: so doing this will have me with reliable sound that doesn't die, and i'll still have use of volume control applet? | 01:09 |
| erUSUL | g0th_: you talk about renaming the folder... | 01:09 |
| andey | sorry to interupt something, but does anyone know how to stop the auto file creation of Documents/Music/Pictures/Public/Templates/Videos | 01:09 |
| deusr_ | someone?? | 01:09 |
| g0th_ | erUSUL: I already tried it | 01:09 |
| hewlett | c'è differenza? | 01:10 |
| deusr_ | help me! | 01:10 |
| cecilia | system--administration---software sources... nothing happened | 01:10 |
| MightyTweek | cecilia, open a terminal and type upd | 01:10 |
| Ahmuck | does ubuntu have a notifier for the upgrade? | 01:10 |
| cecilia | ok | 01:10 |
| BlakStone | Is there a way to upgrade and default any dialog boxes that might come up? | 01:10 |
| MightyTweek | cecilia, open a terminal and typ | 01:10 |
| adaptr | Ahmuck: it does, yes | 01:10 |
| erUSUL | g0th_: :| i do not use TB myself so can not help further... maybe there is a TB channel here... | 01:10 |
| th3raid0r | th1, wow, i got clickjacked when going to pastebin, haha, good thing I am on Ubuntu. But here is my xorg.conf http://pastebin.org/49663 | 01:10 |

| scottj | If I'm not running Gnome then what should I use to select a wireless network and connect? | 01:10 |
| KenBW2 | andey: maybe remove their references from ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs | 01:10 |
| BlakStone | really stinks when i choose to upgrade and wake up the next morning to find it still waiting for input from some new version of phpmyadmin or something... | 01:10 |
| sharperguy | Oh, but the volume control doesn't actually do anything... And apparently doesn't work in amarok. | 01:10 |
| MightyTweek | cecilia, open a terminal and type update-manager | 01:10 |
| cecilia | type what? | 01:10 |
| cecilia | ok | 01:10 |
| theham | Hello everyone, i have installed the new ubutu on my laptop first, and then i installed the windows 7. i think it kinda overided the grub booting thing. is there a way to make it work? | 01:10 |
| Flannel | alid: And the detailed report? Is this through synaptic? or what? | 01:10 |
| hewlett | a si?! vabbè mettiamo un gioco | 01:10 |
| norrec | mickster04, hmm, and u didnt have it with a previous version unr? | 01:11 |
| adaptr | BlakStone: there are flags you can use with apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:11 |
| mickster04 | norrec, nope | 01:11 |
| MightyTweek | apparently super-space maps to "enter" when you don't have gnome-do installed :/ | 01:11 |
| alid | Flannel: I am running kubuntu 9.10. It is KPackageKit. | 01:11 |
| andey | thanks | 01:11 |
| mickster04 | norrec, even does it hen plugged in | 01:11 |
| hewlett | come funziona con gli script? | 01:11 |
| fede1 | hewlett: be di sicuro non devi cercarlo qui | 01:11 |
| ctmjr | scottj, try wicd | 01:11 |
| alid | Flannel: In the detailed report it says: Remove the package libpostproc51 before | 01:11 |
| Ahmuck | adaptr: mine seems as though it's not working | 01:11 |
| cecilia | MightyTweek, look: http://paste.ubuntu.com/305520/ | 01:11 |
| adaptr | Ahmuck: why do you need to be notified ? just upgrade | 01:11 |

| ubottu | theham: 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 | 01:11 |
| Flannel | alid: Er, Try using apt-get, it'll give you a more detailed explanation | 01:11 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: so doing this will have me with reliable sound that doesn't die, and i'll still have use of volume control applet? | 01:12 |
| qq99 | what's the best flash player? | 01:12 |
| mickster04 | !best| qq99, | 01:12 |
| ubottu | qq99,: 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. | 01:12 |
| sven_oostenbrink | I have an ubuntu-server 9.04 which I want to upgrade to 9.10.. I know to use update-manager on ubuntu normal, but how do I upgrade on ubuntu-server? | 01:12 |
| Ahmuck | adaptr: i've tried. "sudo aptiutde update" and then "sudo aptitude full-upgrade". however i'm still on 9.04 | 01:12 |
| adaptr | sven_oostenbrink: there is no difference between versions | 01:12 |
| th3raid0r | th1, so do you see what I had to do? | 01:12 |
| norrec | mickster04, hm, well that means its a problem with the power management package prob, but i havent seen anyone else with that problem today | 01:12 |
| mickster04 | qq99, just get adobe flash? | 01:12 |
| adaptr | Ahmuck: apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:12 |
| kankan_ | serious problem!! booting problem.screen getting blank and irresponsive just after selection from GRUB | 01:12 |
| lockd | KenBW2: yes, you will just have to add an applet "Volume Control" in add to panel | 01:12 |
| hewlett | ok e dove..cioè io usavo mirc su windows e li serviva uno script x la ricerca | 01:12 |
| mickster04 | norrec, well thanks, my friend who also has an asus gets the same thing | 01:12 |
| Ahmuck | sven_oostenbrink: same answer, "sudo aptitude dist-upgrade" | 01:13 |
| sven_oostenbrink | adaptr: yes there is, ubuntu-server doesn't have anything graphic installed.. | 01:13 |
| th1 | lol th3raid0r I got clickjacked too | 01:13 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: oh, like it was in older ubuntus? | 01:13 |
| sven_oostenbrink | Ahmuck: ah, thanks! | 01:13 |
| lockd | KenBW2: it's still possible to cause ALSA to die of course. but if you don't have alsa-oss emulation, you should be fine | 01:13 |
| adaptr | sven_oostenbrink: since you already know this, you also know how to use apt-get | 01:13 |
| th1 | th3raid0r, it seems almost what I said, what was different? | 01:13 |
| norrec | mickster04, hmm well its just not reporting it correctly, pm me the details and i'll try to report a bug for that package | 01:13 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: is it reversible by just uninstalling gnome-media? | 01:13 |
| MightyTweek | cecilia, sounds like you may have uninstalled something you shouldn't have. What happens if you run apt-get install ubuntu-desktop? | 01:14 |
| th3raid0r | th1, just my understanding of it, you left out the option part as well. | 01:14 |
| Ahmuck | sven_oostenbrink: nm | 01:14 |
| shadow98 | nice to have the new version installed | 01:14 |
| sven_oostenbrink | adaptr: nah, I was talking about update-manager, a graphical app.. aptitude sounds better | 01:14 |
| Ahmuck | adaptr: that did not work | 01:14 |
| cecilia | ok, let me try it | 01:14 |
| norrec | mickster04, like ur hardware details, or u can see if they have a bug report on it already, i'm not sure what the name of the package is, i would have to look it up | 01:14 |
| adaptr | Ahmuck: that tells us nothing - what did it do | 01:14 |
| th1 | th3raid0r, so the main point was right? :) | 01:14 |
| lockd | KenBW2: Sid's gnome-media contains a wrapper for the volume control. it chooses between pulse or gstreamer | 01:14 |
| ascheel | Anybody ever see this error in syslog? bonobo-activation-server (art-2662): could not associate with desktop session: /bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following error: Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed. | 01:15 |
| alid | Flannel: I tried apt-get and it did it. But when I was removing those packages from the system, there were some dependencies who also got removed. Now apt-get fixed one of the packages that I had removed, but what about the rest of them (dependencies)? | 01:15 |
| Ahmuck | ... Calculating Upgrade, Done ... | 01:15 |
| cecilia | well, it says here that ubuntu desktop is already installed and it is the newest version | 01:15 |
| th3raid0r | th1, yes, indeed it was, thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction. | 01:15 |
| Flannel | alid: If you install package A, everything that is a dependency of A will get installed, etc. | 01:15 |
| Ahmuck | it just exits, 0 packages to upgrade | 01:15 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: so if for some reason (hey, i might feel like hitting myself) i wanted to revert to PA, how would i do it | 01:15 |
| Flannel | alid: So apt takes care of it, you don't have to worry about it | 01:15 |
| th1 | th3raid0r, ok I'm glad it worked for you :) | 01:15 |
| lockd | KenBW2: install pulseaudio | 01:16 |
| th1 | th3raid0r, I've emailed that config to myself if anyone should ask again | 01:16 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: oh, i shouldn't have PA installed? | 01:16 |
| Ahmuck | adaptr: ... Caculating Upgrade ... Done ... 0 packages upgraded " | 01:16 |
| Xyzumi | hi, today i've upgraded to 9.10 and lost audio. Any help? | 01:16 |
| lockd | KenBW2: if you don't want to use pulseaudio, don't install it. it'll run if it's in /etc/init.d/, and it's better to uninstall than to rm that file | 01:16 |
| adaptr | Ahmuck: apt-get update first, to make it aware of the possibility of a dist-upgrade | 01:16 |

| evilaim_ | wtf... | 01:17 |
| administrador | hola | 01:17 |
| adaptr | Ahmuck: not quite | 01:17 |
| alid | Flannel: So, I removed "libavcodec52" and "libavformat52" and all their dependencies from KPackageKit,and from then I was unable to play any media file on my computer. Now I could get "libavcodec52" back, but still I can't play any media file. Can you guess why? | 01:17 |
| lockd | KenBW2: shouldn't even need to restart the desktop, but you WILL have to add the panel applet | 01:18 |
| Flannel | alid: No idea | 01:18 |

| lockd | KenBW2: yeah. at this rate... it feels like I'm moving from karmic to sid piece by piece | 01:21 |
| fokuslee302 | erUSUL, sorry i meant to say parted | 01:22 |
| MightyTweek | cecilia, try apt-get --reinstall install python-pygtk2 | 01:22 |

| KingKimi | Hi..! My update manager shows 380 mb of updates available... before upgrading to koala, i should get these updates in , right ? but it says first fix broken packages.. but i didnt find broken packegs from synaptic.... any help how to update that 380 mb ?????????????? | 01:22 |
| mado | or asked differently fede1 -> how do i know which set i have to drag and drop into this theme/icons-menu? | 01:22 |
| cecilia | ok | 01:22 |
| shadow98 | i removed the drivers and decided to download from nvida | 01:22 |

| ptc | In KDE, the application khotkeys offers a feature so I can bind a key shortcut to type out a string (e.g: when I press Win+H it types out "http://") ...Is there any similar application in Gnome? | 01:22 |

| shadow98 | however it says on nvida I may want to use the ones supplied by my distro... | 01:22 |
| apn | jdoghacker: click on the "network computer" icon in the top right corner. | 01:22 |
| shadow98 | what should i do.. | 01:22 |
| Xcell | shadow98- nvidia put out 190.42 drivers out.. and some folks report that dual monitors work better than ever | 01:22 |
| fede1 | mado: usually the tar.gz pack | 01:22 |
| ctmjr | lockd, why are you installing stuff from sid if i maight ask | 01:22 |
| alid | erUSUL: I am pretty sure that I am using libxine. But sudo apt-get install libxine gives an error. | 01:22 |
| KenBW2 | lockd: im already considering removing NotifyOSD and its stupid envelope and empathy - back to Jaunty soon | 01:22 |
| lockd | ctmjr: well, they are deb packages, which beats recompiling gnome-media and gnome-applets | 01:23 |
| shadow98 | xcell: so i should do a sh ./filename | 01:23 |
| sandipraj | hey guys. quick question.. i am using ubuntu .. and i am trying to open a windows share on another computer ... any tips on how to do that ? | 01:23 |

| jorrit | Just upgraded from Ubuntu 9.04 to Ubuntu 9.10 (both 64 bit) and my sound has stopped working. I have an Intel-HD Audio controller as part of the ICH10 chipset. aplay -l does not even show soundcards | 01:47 |
| erUSUL | boscop: if they where isntalled as dependencies or sugeestions for a package that was later removed apt will try to autoremove them | 01:47 |
| bj0 | well I've got it :b | 01:47 |
| sinthetek | erUSUL oh yeah, i forgot kern.log is full of 'unable to turn cooling device 'off'' errors | 01:47 |
| bj0 | and a few other people using laptops seem to have it too | 01:47 |
| sinthetek | err | 01:47 |
| sinthetek | s/off/on | 01:47 |
| sshc | wojtek: when you were configuring it, you should have had a series of selections (or one) | 01:48 |
| boscop | erUSUL: how can I tell it which ones to keep? | 01:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | bj0: so use the alternate install cd | 01:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | thats what its for | 01:48 |
| wojtek | sshc: namely? what mistake you did? | 01:48 |
| erUSUL | sinthetek: so you logs are being spamed so any usefull msg is lost?? | 01:48 |
| sshc | wojtek: if you read the text that preceded it carefully, you should have selected all of them or one | 01:48 |
| sinthetek | i don't remember how to disable that with jaunty, heh. it used to just be modprobe -r fan :\ | 01:48 |
| tomoyuki28jp | bj0: thanks, but it wasn't the one I am looking for. | 01:48 |
| bj0 | IndyGunFreak, if the livecd freezes, why wouldn't the fully installed version freeze? | 01:48 |
| KiRiLoS | Hello,i get the error:"Could not change permissions to <file>" when i try to copy files from a NTFS driver to another using dolphin.The one driver is just an external hdd and the other is a partition mounted to my system(I just mounted it a few minutes ago).I am using kubuntu 9.10,Thanks | 01:48 |

| IndyGunFreak | sigh.. | 01:48 |
| cambazz | and how can i add remove from rc.d | 01:48 |

| sshc | wojtek: unfortunately, none of the choices are selected by default. | 01:48 |
| Haberdasher456 | Does anybody know why gnome system monitor might show 3.1 instead of a full 4 gig of ram? (OS = Ubuntu 9.10 amd64) | 01:48 |

| MightyTweek | cecilia, I'll warn you though, it's starting to sound like things got messed up when you tried to upgrade, you may need to reinstall | 01:50 |

| scunizi | PokeyOats: did you install the guest additions in vbox? | 01:57 |
| icehawk78 | If a computer that has a fresh install of 9.04 will not play anything from the speakers, but a live CD of 9.10 does play sounds, is there something in particular I should be looking for? | 01:57 |
| kostkon | gerzel, just double click on them and you will have the option to install them | 01:57 |
| Take0n | resno, I had the same problem years ago when I upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04.. so from then I either do afresh install or wait a month or so :P problems usually get solved.. | 01:57 |
| PokeyOats | In pidgin there is smooth scrolling for the irc room - using VMWare Workstation the scrolling is silky smooth, but sound wasn't working, so someone tells me to "Use Virtual box" - I swear, Limnux users these days, it's all about using something else rather than solving the problem. | 01:57 |

| ppotter | Does anybody know where you can get a working deb of rapache? | 01:58 |
| PokeyOats | Anyway, I installed Virtual box and now the scrolling when the page fills is really jumpy - I know I'm a crybaby... | 01:58 |

| Theham | When i open the grub menu list, there's nothing in it | 01:58 |
| cecilia | ok | 01:58 |
| KiRiLoS | d9500, i must have given wrong permissions or something. | 01:58 |

| resno | Take0n: yea. but i am sure how to get them fixed.. | 01:59 |
| cecilia | tell me, can i install 9.10 ubuntu from a live cd and solve these problems? | 01:59 |
| quiescens | _GRUB_: the problem is you're asking that in the support channel | 01:59 |
| peepsalot | fede1, i don't see xev in the repo | 01:59 |
| PokeyOats | I most certainly did install guest additions - everything is unusable without. | 01:59 |
| mattgyver | Can you reposition the pidgin notifications (User Logged in, IM text) mine is about 2 inches down the screen which... just looks bad | 01:59 |

| ppotter | Does there exist a good GUI for Apache? | 02:00 |
| fede1 | peepsalot: try to run from the terminal...xev is installed by default | 02:00 |

| ewb | :) | 02:36 |
| alexb92 | im just in hell lol | 02:36 |
| Pici | alexb92: And? Thats normal. | 02:36 |
| ewb | alexb92: so yeah, start with that. | 02:37 |
| alexb92 | so annoying, had downloaded a crap load of packages | 02:37 |
| MenZa | It sounds like his entire box is hosed. I mean, he said his 9.04 install broke because of a powerout, so it makes sense that it's horribly broken? | 02:37 |
| ewb | the packages will be cached on your system at least | 02:37 |
| malv0 | any known bugs with the alternate install cd? | 02:37 |
| alexb92 | and to find out that i have to reinstall would be a huge bummer | 02:37 |
| test34 | ewb, could that be v4l1_compat ? | 02:37 |
| alexb92 | well i mean 9.04 works fine, internet is screwed on it thats all | 02:37 |
| ewb | test34: no idea, i haven't used webcam drivers in a long time | 02:37 |
| MenZa | malv0: Check the release notes. This isn't really the place to ask. Or in that fashion, anyway. | 02:37 |
| D3RGPS31 | after installing fglrx drivers; i freeze after boot splash at a black screen; Ubuntu 9.10 fresh install; ATI 4850 | 02:38 |
| ewb | test34: but it would likely involve recompiling either a kernel module or some userspace stuff that uses it | 02:38 |
| ewb | after, you know, coding in horiz rotate support | 02:38 |
| ewb | i'd ask the v4l dudes | 02:38 |
| ewb | if i were you | 02:38 |
| Morydd | test34: I did the reinstall of the flash plugin both via synaptic and CLI | 02:38 |
| test34 | thanks ewb | 02:38 |
| Morydd | oops | 02:38 |
| ewb | good luck | 02:38 |
| malv0 | eh, it's not worth my time... i'm amazed how many weird issues i've been having with a fresh install. think it's time i switch distros. each ubuntu release has more and more problems out of box | 02:38 |
| Morydd | since upgrading to 9.10, flash is not working in FF3.5 It is installed, but doesn't show up in FF's list of add-ons. Any suggestions? | 02:38 |
| Roasted | Hey guys - I got a real quick command question. I have 2 drives mounted respectively on /media/storage and /media/storagebackup. I want to COPY all of the data on storage to also be on storagebackup. But when I run my cp command, a folder named "storage" gets created within storagebackup. I don't want it to be storagebackup/storage. I just want storagebackup/data. What am I doing wrong? | 02:38 |
| MenZa | alexb92: You don't always notice internal bleeding. | 02:38 |
| AussieGuy | ive found internet is no good on 9.10, firefox thinks most domains have the IP of 1.1.1.1 (dns problem). Funnily enough console programs access the net fine, links for example will go to any website | 02:38 |
| ewb | Roasted: so the naive answer is cp storage/* /wherever/else | 02:39 |
| ewb | but | 02:39 |
| MenZa | alexb92: I hope you get my metaphor. Just because you can see a bruise (i.e., no internet connection), doesn't mean more can't be broken. | 02:39 |
| jken146 | Morydd: sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin* && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer | 02:39 |
| ewb | you can always mv data/storage/* data/ | 02:39 |
| ewb | afterwards | 02:39 |
| ewb | so it doesn't really matter | 02:39 |

| Roasted | ewb - I've never done it, to be honest. ext3 was always around since Ive been on ubuntu. | 02:40 |
| MenZa | alexb92: I wouldn't provide support on a system like yours. It's most likely broken in a million different pieces and I highly, HIGHLY recommend a fresh install. | 02:40 |

| coordinador | i found that , and my cam doesnt work | 02:58 |
| coordinador | hub 1-0:1.0: Cannot enable port 6. Maybe the USB cable is bad? | 02:58 |
| jken146 | gluonman: it should be faster for some things, and you can have more RAM | 02:58 |
| test34 | gluonman, if you want to help the 64 developers, you could use it and report what is wrong | 02:58 |
| Capt_Blackwood | test34, http://pastie.org/677672 | 02:58 |
| gluonman | jken146, so the appeal behind 64-bit is just to optimize on speed? | 02:58 |
| Capt_Blackwood | i doubt this'll do any good | 02:58 |
| mbrigdan | gluonman: 32-bit technically only supports 4GB of ram, but I think ubuntu pushes it to 64GB. Personally, 64-bit works fine for me, but unless you know a decent amount about linux, I would stick to 32-bit | 02:58 |
| * Annonymorse might go back to XP... | 02:59 | |
| jken146 | test34, gluonman: 64bit ubuntu works just as well as 32bit these days | 02:59 |
| StarMatt | I'm trying the Netbook Remix version at the moment, and I was wondering what are the big differences with "easy peasy". Do you know about it ? | 02:59 |
| aresnick | Hi! I have an LVM that I'd like to shrink, and I've found it surprisingly difficult to find out how to do this. I have a single Physical Volume (sda1) and several Logical Volumes (/home is the one I want to shrink, so I can expand root, usr, var, tmp, and swap_1) I'm running ext3. Any hints or pointers would be much appreciated. | 02:59 |
| Capt_Blackwood | I have a 5.1 surround card that's getting screwed over hardcore...this not looking good | 02:59 |
| enduser000 | can anyone help me with this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/465980 | 02:59 |
| jken146 | gluonman: I'm no expert. Look up 64bit on wikipedia or something | 02:59 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: Whats the problem ? | 02:59 |
| mbrigdan | Is there a reason that upgrading to 9.10 wants to remove selinux and install apache? (Neither of which I want) | 02:59 |
| baltadt | what text editor has root permissions? | 03:00 |
| Annonymorse | I just installed my webcam drivers under WINE because easycam isn't worth a crap for old cameras. Do I have to install an additional browser under WINE to use this cam? | 03:00 |
| jken146 | aresnick: the server guide has some info on LVM and it links to a very full guide | 03:00 |
| jken146 | !server | 03:00 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications.

| test34 | jken146, it doesnt but yes it's alot better then it used to be | 03:00 |
| Capt_Blackwood | MenZa, the sound guide was not what i'm after. I have a sound problem where the speakers are distorted badly | 03:00 |
| mbrigdan | baltadt: Thats not really a question. The user is the one that determines what privlidges a program has | 03:00 |
| courpse | My firefox buttons dont work, the back/forward refresh, stop are all disabled and dont come back enabled after restart, i used apt-get remove firefox and the firefox is still there, how do i reinstall or resolve the problem at hand? | 03:00 |
| KnifeySpooney | Umm.. I just rebooted from Windows (dual boot) into Karmic and I got hit with a "Error mounting filesystem" error. Luckily I was able to run "fsck" and fsck fixed it in a few seconds. A few bad sectors I think it said. Is there anything else I should do? This makes me a little nervous about my ext4 [root] filesystem. | 03:00 |
| gluonman | mbrigdan, that was very informational, thank you. I'm familiar with linux, but I haven't really used 64-bit before. I just wanted to learn some things. | 03:00 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: Try to put the nick youre talking to first in the sayings, that way we can pick it up. | 03:00 |
| jken146 | test34: I've had no trouble on various machines. Depends what you want to do with it -- best tool for the job and all that. | 03:01 |
| Annonymorse | WanHouse, I just installed my webcam drivers under WINE because easycam isn't worth a crap for old cameras. Do I have to install an additional browser under WINE to use this cam? | 03:01 |
| baltadt | I want to boot faster so I need to use a text editor | 03:01 |
| mbrigdan | baltadt: If you want something simple, goto a terminal and type gksudo gedit <file> | 03:01 |
| baltadt | thank you | 03:01 |
| courpse | My firefox buttons dont work, the back/forward refresh, stop are all disabled and dont come back enabled after restart, i used apt-get remove firefox and the firefox is still there, how do i reinstall or resolve the problem at hand? | 03:01 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: You dont need windows drivers. What brand and model is it ? | 03:01 |
| Theham | How do you show the grub menu selection list when booting? | 03:01 |
| bthornton | Does Karmic support LVM partitioning in the graphical installer yet or do I still need to download the alternate image for that? | 03:01 |

| aresnick | jken146: I only found ext2 support there; was I missing something? (see, e.g. http://bit.ly/3qmRKf) | 03:02 |
| Capt_Blackwood | It's not an intel it's a Creative Labs SoundBlaster X-Fi.... | 03:02 |
| mbrigdan | gluonman: Well, the main problems I have is that a few programs (not from the repositories) need 32-bit libs, you can fix it, its just a pain. But yeah, unless you plan to do major development, 64-bit should be fine | 03:02 |
| Capt_Blackwood | it's supposed to work out of the box with NO problems | 03:02 |
| jken146 | bthornton: you can install with the desktop CD and then set up an LVM afterwards. see the server guide | 03:02 |
| Annonymorse | jken146: I wouldn't be here if google didn't already tell me | 03:02 |

| Capt_Blackwood | PCI Sound card | 03:03 |
| mbrigdan | gluonman: Oh, and the flash plugin needs a little bit of tinkering to install, but its really easy | 03:03 |
| test34 | Capt_Blackwood, do you also have on-board? | 03:03 |
| jken146 | Annonymorse: ok, sorry. | 03:03 |
| Capt_Blackwood | the one before that generated the same issues | 03:03 |
| Capt_Blackwood | nope...that's also a card | 03:03 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: I just upgraded to "Karmic 9.10", this command lets me play DVD's again (.VOB's) == sudo apt-get install gstreamer-tools ubuntu-restricted-extras* | 03:03 |

| Annonymorse | will try that, thanks | 03:03 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: Now i can help others | 03:03 |
| WanHouse | as im pleased | 03:03 |

| Capt_Blackwood | test34, ideas? | 03:04 |
| Annonymorse | WanHouse: yes | 03:04 |
| jken146 | bthornton: you have LVM already but you want to upgrade to karmic? Just type do-release-upgrade | 03:04 |
| PRIDE | can you partician after an os is installed? | 03:04 |
| gluonman | mbrigdan, I work at this place that gave me a laptop they are going to use for polycom and general astrophysical purposes. It needs to be a dual-boot linux and Windows with the option of booting the Windows partition from a virtual box in linux. | 03:04 |

| bthornton | hmm... | 03:04 |
| gluonman | mbrigdan, so I just wanted to know if it would be wise for me to go with 64-bit, or if it would just be a pain and make my work more difficult. | 03:04 |
| camadas | Guys what is the option on LS to see the folders that start whit a . ? i dont remenber | 03:05 |
| FyreFoX | gluonman: do you have more than 4G of ram? | 03:05 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: Tested Xsane, Qcam and other programs ? | 03:05 |
| penthief | camadas, ls -a | 03:05 |
| camadas | Thanks | 03:05 |
| Annonymorse | just manycam so far | 03:05 |
| jken146 | PRIDE: yes. You can't do some things to partitions that are mounted though, so using a live CD to do the rearranging gives you most freedom. Be careful of losing data though! | 03:05 |
| mbrigdan | gluonman: I'd go with 32-bit to be safe, but as long as it actually is a 64bit PC, either will work fine | 03:05 |
| bthornton | jken146: good call. Thanks! :) | 03:06 |
| Annonymorse | WanHouse: just easycam so far and cheese. | 03:06 |

| mbrigdan | Is there a reason that upgrading to 9.10 wants to remove selinux and install apache? (Neither of which I want) | 03:06 |
| FyreFoX | gluonman: thats nice. Do you have more than 4G of ram? | 03:06 |
| Capt_Blackwood | I was looking forward to this release...what happened? | 03:06 |
| test34 | Capt_Blackwood, my only idea is intel, sorry | 03:06 |
| jken146 | esmit: kill it off: type 'killall gnome-panel' | 03:06 |
| Annonymorse | WanHouse: My camera does not work on Tinychat or CHEESE. | 03:07 |
| gluonman | mbrigdan, it is a 64-bit PC, that's why I was wondering. But I guess I'll just test it out and find out for myself. I just need this done by Monday. | 03:07 |
| shiznebit_TB | Annonymorse: whats the camera | 03:07 |
| adonai2009 | my ubuntu is upgrading now to ubuntu 9.10 | 03:07 |
| Annonymorse | WanHouse: is there another driver installation tool that I can acquire? | 03:07 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: First check the logs /var/log/messages etc to see if its detected and a driver is loaded for it | 03:07 |
| Capt_Blackwood | the intel card was screwing up too | 03:07 |
| tecna | Hello I am having issues with deleted users not staying gone after deletion. Is there a file that can be manually edited by chance or a solution? | 03:07 |

| WanHouse | Annonymorse: Driver doesnt matter for higher level programs | 03:07 |

| Annonymorse | PRIDE: webcam chat, like stickam but with no registration | 03:07 |
| linuxmonger | Can anyone tell me how to enable home folder encryption for the second user? | 03:07 |
| PRIDE | Annonymorse, thx | 03:08 |
| gluonman | test34, alright. That's good to know. | 03:08 |
| mbrigdan | test34: Works fine for me, as long as I don't leave a flash game running more than 4 hours | 03:08 |
| tecna | jken146: Is that a cmd line? And what would be the syntax please? | 03:08 |
| jken146 | linuxmonger: IIRC there's an option when you create the user | 03:08 |

| WanHouse | Annonymorse: Log-check first. See if it can load a driver for the cam or if it cannot detect it. In the latter case youll need a driver | 03:11 |

| test34 | I was having sound problems on boot but since I did a fesh install it works fine | 03:20 |
| trism | Daveycal: windows will overwrite grub, so you'll need to fix grub after you install | 03:20 |
| scunizi | Daveycal: you're better off doing it the other way around | 03:20 |
| Annonymorse | WanHouse: well I'm glad it's worked for you, I get segfaults on my 9.04 disc even though the md5 hash was correct for the iso | 03:21 |
| Daveycal | trism: so i should re-install windows and then ubuntu | 03:21 |
| Xcell | depending hardware some times upgrading works some times not | 03:21 |
| Phenomenon | Where could i download the ubottu code? | 03:21 |
| Roasted | jken146 - I have 4 drives in my system. When I boot to 9.04 and manually edit the partitions, I see all 4 drives. In 9.10, I don't. It's very strange. I installed 9.10 and decided to try and addt hem to fstab but that was a disaster - fstab has an issue to be worked out in 9.10 it seems (several other users confirmed the same problem). | 03:21 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: Sure, some things could be more perfect but i feel they are getting very close to "HOT" :) | 03:21 |
| jken146 | Daveycal: Do windows first, then ubuntu. This will avoid bootloader problems and a lot of grief if you don't know what you're doing. | 03:21 |
| Daveycal | ok then for a shared folder (for both filesystems) what is the best format | 03:21 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: 64 arch or bad ram ? | 03:21 |
| Phenomenon | Where could i download the ubottu code? | 03:21 |
| Roasted | jken146 - fstab issues can be fixed with a patch later. Okay fine. But what about the live cd? I'd like to be able to not only DETECT my drives but also mount them to the corresponding directories. 9.10 didn't even pick up my 2 250gb drives, and theyre just normal SATA drives. | 03:21 |
| mbrigdan | Is there a reason that upgrading to 9.10 wants to remove selinux and install apache? (Neither of which I want) | 03:21 |
| jken146 | Roasted: sudo fdisk -l <-- that doesn't show them? | 03:22 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: 10 years ago i refused to think new ram could be faulty. Believe me it can. | 03:22 |
| Roasted | jken146 - it sure does. That's why I'm so confused... | 03:22 |
| Annonymorse | WanHouse: It was the 32bit version, but judging from the age and abuse of this machine, it's probably bad ram | 03:22 |
| joljam | I flushed out windows 7 and installed Karmic on my HP Pavilion bt for some reason when I boot it it stops at th ee command prompt | 03:22 |
| Xcell | corsair ftw | 03:22 |
| Roasted | jken146 - I have to do more testing later. Currently Im back on 9.04 and getting my drives to ext4 file systems. But it was very weird.... | 03:22 |
| alexb92 | hey guys is there a way to backup ur packages and stuff for further use? | 03:22 |
| Roasted | jken146 - thats what I get for installing an OS that (at the time) was 2 hours old :P | 03:22 |
| Annonymorse | WanHouse: dell inspiron 7500 | 03:22 |
| WanHouse | Annonymorse: I have a few kilos of sdram. If only i could FAX it to you :=) | 03:22 |
| alexb92 | im trying to fix up a corrupt instal of 9.04 so i can upgrade | 03:22 |
| WanHouse | Ah | 03:23 |

| Bluey | alexb92: it's best to prolly backup critical data then start over | 03:23 |

| WanHouse | test34: Its cheap though. | 03:23 |
| greg_ | could someone please provide advice for irc. I am new to irc -- tried 3-4 times to ask questions but I never receive a response. It it difficult to watch all of the conversations fly by and keep track of all. I assume I must not be following proper etiquette... willing to do what is necessary, but I'm feeling a little lost. I just want Ubuntu to work with my ATI x1200 series card (no longer supported in kernels above 2.2.29) | 03:23 |
| Roasted | jken146 - why would I want to do something foolish like that? :P | 03:24 |
| TheCheeze | anyone know of a fix for the crackling noise on karmic without removing pulse? | 03:24 |
| test34 | WanHouse, yes, that's what almost everybody wants;| | 03:24 |
| alexb92 | bluey : mate ive downloaded tons of packages and i just wanna backup those and reinstall | 03:24 |
| Roasted | jken146 - nothing against debian, but I've tried like 30 different distros and ended up back on Ubuntu each time. Its solid, stable, easy to use, etc. Its just what I get for installing a distro version that was so young. | 03:24 |
| fizzle | anyone familiar with the 9.10 powerpc release? the alternate cd wont detect my hard drive | 03:24 |
| Bluey | alexb92: whats preventing you from backing up? | 03:25 |
| jken146 | greg_: It can be hard at first, especially in this channel, which moves really really fast. Try ubuntuforums.org perhaps or just persevere here -- there may be no one on who knows the answer! | 03:25 |
| alexb92 | bluey : i dont really wanna redownload everything, my bandwidth isnt the bestt | 03:25 |
| Roasted | jken146 - Im sure when debian pumps out a new version theyre not 100% problem proof :P | 03:25 |
| joljam | someone hel me with Karmic installation | 03:25 |
| Bluey | alexb92: what do you mean re-download everything? | 03:25 |
| alexb92 | bluey : is there just a way to backup packages and reinstall them once ive donee the system files? | 03:25 |
| WanHouse | test34: In contrast, it very well is. But the most expensive RAM can also be broken. I ordered a few of those as well. | 03:25 |
| jken146 | Roasted: ok, cool, whatever works best for you. Debian stable is *very* stable though (after all, that is the point) | 03:25 |
| Bluey | alexb92: not that I know -- | 03:25 |
| jken146 | Roasted: but that's off-topic isn't it | 03:25 |
| ska178 | is anyone else having a problem downloading the packages when trying to update ubuntu to karmic? | 03:25 |
| ska178 | through the update manager that is | 03:26 |

| luller | Hello, I seem to be having a strange issue with Ubuntu 9.10 Live USB. Ubuntu seems to be turning my brightness up and down like crazy, by itself, and I can't seem to get it to stop. Any ideas? | 03:26 |
| Roasted | jken146 - we dont wanna get yelled at for being off topic when talking about linux in a linux chat. (I know how that goes in here) | 03:26 |
| WanHouse | test34: Crusial ECC for example can also be broken. | 03:26 |
| Bluey | joljam: what's up? | 03:26 |
| drakeman | hey good evening guys | 03:26 |
| WanHouse | evenin | 03:26 |
| test34 | WanHouse, yeah price isnt everything either... luckily I haven't had any bad RAM yet | 03:27 |
| Bluey | alexb92: at some point you have to bite the bullet, and start over to go forward - I've had to do that many times with many things in my life. | 03:27 |
| jken146 | alexb92: yes. Copy all the .deb package files from /var/cache/apt/archives somewhere and put them back there in your fresh install, then use apt to install what you want, and it won't have to download them all again (unless there are newer versions available of course) | 03:27 |
| alexb92 | bluey : as in download all the packages again once ive upgraded to 9.10 | 03:27 |
| luller | ...and it just stopped. Nevermind, apparently. | 03:27 |
| Bluey | alexb92: good luck with that... | 03:27 |
| joljam | Bluey: I got a new HP Pavilion today.. it had WIndows 7 in it.. I flushed out Windows 7 and installed Karmic... but when I rebooted after finishing the install, I can restart and come to the command prompt and not any further | 03:27 |
| jken146 | Roasted: I was OT talking about debian. Now, where were we with your ubuntu trouble? | 03:27 |
| WanHouse | test34: Ive had plenty. If i get computers that are perfect hardware wise ill be very happy. (Almost never happens) | 03:27 |
| jken146 | joljam: Did you get any errors? | 03:28 |
| alexb92 | cheers guys, will give that a whirl | 03:28 |
| abhiroopb | Need some help with Bash: basically I have a very simple script that executes a very long rsync command. Instead of putting it all in one line (and it looking very messy) is there anyway to put each command on a new line? When I hit ENTER to put it on a new line and try and run the script the script fails to run (although when I don't hit enter it runs fine). Thanks | 03:28 |

| alexb92 | jken146: is there any other directories where apps and packages are stored so i can back them up too? | 03:31 |
| jken146 | Roasted: it's the disks not being recognised is it? That's happened to me in the past when I've changed kernels. You could try to upgrade from jaunty to karmic directly later on, when it's (hopefully) fixed -- no need for a Cd | 03:31 |
| WanHouse | test34: Its like a DOS CD /LOL, but it does the job right. | 03:31 |
| greg_ | jken146: I want to upgrade to Karmic but I had an ATI X1200 series graphics card, which is not supported in kernels 2.6.29 and greater. I am hoping for a way to install an older fglrx so I can make this work. | 03:31 |

| drakeman | Ds7opia, ok, i hope you can give me a feedback if you play a video in youtube to see if the video runs smooth. | 03:32 |
| test34 | WanHouse, nowadays you need bloated software to get the job done | 03:32 |
| drakeman | beacuse in my debian sucks: ( | 03:32 |
| Roasted | jken146 - it wouldnt be a problem if I could edit Fstab to mount my drives by UUID. But karmic was just acting very very weird. Having other users confirm the same thing just made me think I jumped the gun too soon. So I'm sticking with 9.04 for a few weeks till I hear 9.10 settles down, at least in the fstab department. Other than that I hear great things about it. | 03:32 |

| jken146 | alexb92: there are configuration files all over the place. If you want to preserve your current setup, it's best to upgrade rather than doing a fresh install. | 03:32 |

| jken146 | b0nn: How about in dmesg? | 03:50 |

| jken146 | b0nn: Is this a new problem with karmic? | 03:53 |

| b0nn | jken146: I don't know, I've never tried this before | 03:54 |
| mediadata | hi guys... | 03:54 |
| jken146 | socks4anon: I don't know. You could pester the devs about it I suppose but you won't get very far I don't think | 03:54 |
| socks4anon | it works but it takes up too much cpu with pulse | 03:54 |
| WanHouse | Xcell: Seems the best way to subvert the mind is to occupy it alot. Or physical training. However, i have found the best way, and that it to mix the nicotine with pulversized bread (ströbröd in Swedish). Ill post a perfect solution on this theorem later on | 03:54 |
| socks4anon | and you have to use the new beta version of it has bad memory leaks | 03:54 |
| jken146 | b0nn: OK, I was just trying to see if it was perhaps a hardware issue. | 03:54 |

| Juzzy | mediadata: for dialup or cable/dsl? | 03:57 |
| poyntz | jken146: actually, i should have said that it does get to the login screen for the console. except stuff is flashing all over the place | 03:57 |
| high-rez | mediadata: I think what you're interested in doing is called multilink ppp... | 03:57 |
| mdprotacio | but unlike jaunty, the device would not be listed on Places menu and would not be displayed as an icon on the desktop | 03:57 |
| jken146 | mediadata: I don't honestly know. That's not something I've ever heard of. | 03:57 |
| mediadata | Juzzy, 2 hsdpa with 2 user different each other | 03:57 |
| mdprotacio | it seems that i still have to manually mount it somewhere | 03:57 |
| Xcell | mediadata- you have to have 2 isp providers for that.. and its not 2 easy. | 03:57 |
| bderrly | upgrade soo slow... | 03:57 |
| jken146 | poyntz: flashing? text? | 03:57 |
| marcelcohrs | i changed my eth0 settings to static | 03:57 |
| mediadata | high-rez, yes... pp0 + ppp1 maybe to faster | 03:57 |
| mdprotacio | @jken146 you got my reply? | 03:58 |
| jken146 | mdprotacio: Right. That's weird, but at least you can mount things manually. | 03:58 |
| redrebel | why should I upgrade from ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10? my friend said itś basically the same thing | 03:58 |
| marcelcohrs | how do i restart the networking interface, to apply the changes? | 03:58 |
| mediadata | high-rez, i have 2 acc in 1 isp | 03:58 |
| poyntz | jken146: yeah, all the things it loads up | 03:58 |
| mdprotacio | @jken146 it is very troublesome for me | 03:58 |
| poyntz | jken146: then when it gets to login | 03:58 |
| Xgates | for now I'm happy with pekwm, seems to work pretty good | 03:58 |
| poyntz | jken146: it keeps flashing | 03:58 |
| mdprotacio | @jken146 it's not supposed to be like that when in jaunty it is not like that | 03:58 |
| omani | marcelcohrs, easy way is "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" | 03:58 |
| poyntz | jken146: and when I try to type in username and password | 03:58 |
| jken146 | mdprotacio: there might be an option in gconf for automounting that is responsible for that. I can;t think of what else would be doing it. | 03:59 |
| poyntz | jken146: it causes me to miss letters | 03:59 |
| poyntz | jken146: for example, c and r | 03:59 |
| maf2 | #u | 03:59 |
| poyntz | jken146: so I can't actually log in | 03:59 |
| jken146 | poyntz: how weird. If I were you, I'd reinstall I think | 03:59 |
| mdprotacio | @jken146 would you know exactly how? | 03:59 |
| poyntz | jken146: how would I do that? | 03:59 |
| high-rez | mediadata: You won't be able to do that easily with HSDPA/UMTS/EDGE/GPRS. When you create a PDP Context, while it will be PPP - the other end needs to support multilink PPP- and I doubt the remote ends supports that. Besides, the speed of the connection is probably limited on the Gi/Gn side. | 03:59 |
| maf2 | hi all | 03:59 |
| jken146 | mdprotacio: no. Look in gconf-editor, or google it even! | 03:59 |

| ian_mac | disclaimer - never tried or attempted | 04:01 |
| ian_mac | just found it on google | 04:01 |
| jken146 | poyntz: yes, sure. If you can boot from the live CD you should be able to mount your partitions there and copy files somewhere safe. | 04:01 |
| poyntz | jken146: actually. don't answer that. i'll try to mount it, copy the files to an ext HD, then ask if I get stuck | 04:01 |

| high-rez | ian_mac:He's tryiung to use HSDPA devices. Even if it were technically possible to multilink those (i dont think it is), the performance issue is almost always between the tower and the GGSN (e.g. congested link). | 04:02 |
| marcelcohrs | thx jken | 04:02 |
| jken146 | !mysql | marcelcohrs | 04:03 |
| ubottu | marcelcohrs: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 04:03 |
| dublued2 | is there a way to do a distribution upgrade using the cdrom? | 04:03 |
| ian_mac | well, that post mentioned that you couldn't multilink with HSDPA | 04:03 |
| ian_mac | but | 04:03 |
| jken146 | dublued2: yes. You can use the alternate CD to du that without having to use an internet connection | 04:03 |
| marcelcohrs | thx u bottu ;) | 04:03 |
| dublued2 | jken146: thanks, so i assume the standard live cd cannot do that | 04:03 |
| mattgyver | anybody have conky randomly dissapear, or crash in 9.10?? | 04:03 |
| jken146 | dublued2: nope | 04:04 |
| ian_mac | it did suggest other solutions. I'm not claiming it will work, just reporting what I found. I figure he is able to evaluate on his own and make his own decision as to whether or not to try it | 04:04 |
| dublued2 | jken146: thanks | 04:04 |

| ian_mac | you never know until you try :) | 04:04 |
| marcelcohrs | does the lastest ubuntu server version come with a ftp server? | 04:04 |
| jken146 | dublued2: although you can just do a fresh install with a live CD | 04:04 |

| jken146 | marcelcohrs: yes, several. See the server guide | 04:04 |
| jken146 | !server | marcelcohrs | 04:04 |
| ubottu | marcelcohrs: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 8.04. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ and https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/index.html - Use the #ubuntu-server channel for support | 04:04 |

| marcelcohrs | oh cool | 04:04 |
| poyntz | jken146: actually. if it helps, everything starts flashing midway through boot (once I've selected an OS). Is there any suggestion you could make on what the problem might be? | 04:05 |
| poyntz | jken146: I can pastebin files if need be | 04:05 |
| ian_mac | mediadata, the post I linked to mentioned two solutions - one using shorewall, and the other using some other setup. It is apparently rather complicated to setup and the recommendation seems to be that you should know your networking very well | 04:05 |

| high-rez | mediadata: Have at it - but I think you'll just be wasting your time. Your performance bottleneck on HSDPA is almost due to two things: 1) radio idle and 2) congestion on the Gn side of the network. You can't solve 2, but 1 can be solved by keeping a ping going in the background. That's my experience, at least. | 04:06 |

| nikos_ | VLC is unable to open the MRL 'v4l2://'. Check the log for details." | 04:10 |
| mdprotacio | @jken146 the problem still persist on my usb | 04:10 |
| mesa | how do you upgrade safely? | 04:10 |
| greg_ | Jaredu: I have an ATI X1200 card, which is no longer supported in kernels 2.6.29 and greater. I want to upgrade to Karmic. | 04:10 |
| high-rez | mediadata: Have at it. I don't personally believe it, based on my experience. Your HSDPA radio, btw supports 3.6 megabit or 7.2 megabit. He could be just using a single radioat once and getting those speeds. | 04:10 |
| poyntz | Lapinux: but yeah, just in case lol | 04:10 |
| Lapinux | poyntz: ;) | 04:10 |

| mattgyver | jken146, great article thanks | 04:10 |
| poyntz | Lapinux: I keep making the mistake of thinking that Ubuntu is forward compatible. Gets me every time... | 04:11 |
| Jaredu | greg_ have you checked to see if there's an official driver on the ATI site? I don't see how it's no longer supporte.d.. | 04:11 |
| Jaredu | greg_ no prob dude :\ wish I could be a bit more help lol | 04:11 |
| ppotter | Gnomebaker has blanked the CD! It's just somewhat odd that it appears to freeze rather than giving you the running progress. | 04:11 |
| greg_ | Jaredu: yes, ATI list my card as legacy, with no support. Too bad, as it is integrated in a system board I purchased only 2 years ago :( | 04:11 |
| jken146 | mdprotacio: hmm, did you change anything in gconf? | 04:11 |
| poyntz | Lapinux: I started on Hardy. Upgraded to Intrepid stuffed things up. and now from Jaunty to Karmic, things are being stuffed up. The funny thing is when I upgraded to Jaunty from Intrepid all my problems were fixed LOL! | 04:12 |
| mdprotacio | not really coz media-automount is already enabled | 04:12 |
| Jaredu | greg_ ouch... :( They weren't supporting the mobility HD 2600 a few months ago, but recently released a driver, so there's probably still hope. (the card has been out for ages) | 04:12 |

| mdprotacio | @jken146 thanks :D | 04:13 |
| greg_ | Jaredu: I had thought maybe there would be some way to use the older fglrx drivers with kernel 2.6.31 or later, so I could use Karmic. Emails to ATI were no help, so I was brought here. | 04:13 |

| EruditeHermit | hi, can anyone help me speed up my boot? Karmic seems to have tripled my boot time. http://imagebin.org/69558 | 04:14 |
| Jaredu | greg_ couldn't you downgrade the kernel? on my vaio P I am running a much older kernel with 9.04 because the drivers were broken, unless there were some super big changes for 9.10 i assume you could do something similar | 04:14 |
| module000 | Wolfcastle: an alternative to update? | 04:14 |
| mediadata | high-rez, thx... | 04:14 |
| jken146 | greg_: might be less hassle to scavenge a newer graphics card from somewhere. It doesn't have to be *that* new by any means! | 04:14 |
| Wolfcastle | module000: yes, i think i read that you can upgrade with apt-get? | 04:14 |
| Random832 | !torrents | 04:15 |
| ubottu | 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). | 04:15 |
| module000 | Wolfcastle: yes, that's the way update manager uses anyway | 04:15 |
| Random832 | so are you supposed to use the torrent in preference to downloading the upgrade from the online package repositories? | 04:15 |
| Wolfcastle | ok, well maybe it gives me some more info on why it's failing | 04:15 |
| module000 | Wolfcastle: it's apt-get install dist-upgrade, check apt-get --help for details | 04:15 |
| module000 | Wolfcastle: sorry, it's 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' | 04:15 |

| mesa | last time I upgraded and my machine was all messed up | 04:16 |
| greg_ | jken146: I agree -- that *might* be easier. my problem is I am living in Taiwan and I don't speak Chinese well. So, even though most of these cards are designed here, I can't even get the guy at the computer store to understand what a graphics card is. LOL | 04:16 |
| Wolfcastle | module000: ok thanx | 04:16 |

| Guest65552 | anyone else using crunchbang? | 04:38 |
| San234 | i dont have net in ubuntu i repeat i dont hav internet in ubuntu | 04:38 |
| _Er1K_ | The "user" is set for automatic login, the system has no keyboard or mouse, so clicking the "Session" menu is a PITA without digging around behind my tv | 04:38 |
| jken146 | centHOGG: Be nice to the newbies please! | 04:39 |
| San234 | and how to activate root | 04:39 |
| Guest65552 | su | 04:39 |

| albertxiaoyu | <San234> ok | 04:40 |
| Guest65552 | just chillin testing this out | 04:40 |
| jken146 | San234: oh, sorry. You can download the packages individually from packages.ubuntu.com but you need to make sure you get all the dependencies as well. This is a pain without a package manager! | 04:40 |
| mimcpher | fizzle: If you open the updates thing, it should say "New release available: 9.10" and you can click upgrade | 04:40 |
| albertxiaoyu | does it lose the previous software ? | 04:40 |
| fizzle | im not an ubuntu guy. i usually use slackware but im going to use ubuntu for my mac. | 04:40 |

| megamanx1978 | Well there is no ultimate edition room that I know of and it is closer to reguler ubuntu than those two distros (Just extra themes and programs) so that is why I am here | 04:40 |

| pratyaksha | is there a wifi group? the problems is that the ath5k driver is replaced in 9.10, but i think because i did not deactivate madwifi in 9.04 there is a problem. wifi worked fine from live cd but could not be enabled until i changed the /etc/modprobe.d blacklist file. sorry for all the info, just love ubuntu and don't know what to do other than fresh install | 04:42 |

| ubottu | centHOGG, please see my private message | 04:43 |
| centHOGG | bazhang: oh, nah | 04:43 |
| jken146 | iwobbles: it deletes what it removes. apt-get clean will remove downloaded package files from the cache | 04:43 |
| mimcpher | justfil: Windows doesn't entirely like this; It'll want to re-active its license. | 04:43 |
| _Er1K_ | I've googled, read the gdm man pages, all the x related man pages (that I can find), and I can't seem to figure out where an individual user's default session is stored | 04:43 |
| jken146 | PC_Nerd1011: weird. try 'sudo killall bind9' | 04:43 |
| mimcpher | justfil: but vmware can do that. | 04:43 |
| iwobbles | ta jken146 | 04:43 |
| PC_Nerd1011 | jken146: "bind9: no process found" | 04:44 |
| Yanick_ | hi, I just installed removed Ubuntu 9.04, cleared most of my /home/user/.config files (exception Mozilla and such), then installed Ubuntu 9.10, and all I see is a white screen... can anyone help me find the source of the problem? | 04:44 |
| d9500 | iwobbles: if you choose the option for "mark for complete removal" it should remove the package and its config files. you can also use computer janitor to clean up any leftover cruft on your syste, | 04:44 |
| San234 | Arvan, right now i m in xp and and in xchat is ther and linux version of xchat? so that i directly chat thru unbuntu my frend has given me proxy and it works in ubuntu | 04:44 |
| holstein | i think it would depend on your hardware too justfil.. probably have driver issues | 04:44 |
| Yanick_ | *just removed* | 04:44 |
| justfil | thanks, mimcpher and holstein | 04:44 |
| bazhang | San234, yes there is xchat in ubuntu software repositories | 04:44 |
| PC_Nerd1011 | jken146: but netsat -aunt gives me something listening on :::53 and localhost:53 - so it is running? - rather confusing. | 04:44 |
| pratyaksha | if the community docs on wifi fail, where is the best place to turn? | 04:45 |
| Arvan | San234, yeah,there's a linux version of xchat | 04:45 |
| jken146 | PC_Nerd1011: I don't know anything about bind9 really :) | 04:45 |
| linux | Is setting up wifi in wubi the same as in a regular install? | 04:45 |

| San234 | Arvan, does it come default in ubuntu or i will hav to dlod if then wers the link | 04:45 |
| _Er1K_ | PC_Nerd1011: add -p to your netstat and it will show you what pid owns the listening socket | 04:45 |
| pratyaksha | ok thank you jken146 | 04:45 |
| DengHa | Anyone from Sweden, or know the language. Get "Det ä Kanon" (Im laughing my ass off:) | 04:45 |

| jken146 | !packages | San234 | 04:46 |
| ubottu | San234: You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 04:46 |

| jken146 | pratyaksha: post in the forums. | 04:46 |
| PC_Nerd1011 | _Er1K_: it just gives me a "-" instead of a pid etc. | 04:46 |
| pratyaksha | cool thanks again jken146 | 04:46 |
| _Er1K_ | PC_Nerd1011: "sudo netstat -auntp | grep -w 53" should tell you what is bound to port 53 mighty quick | 04:46 |
| justfil | holstein, what I meant is to be able to use it and make changes that will stay in the actual install | 04:46 |

| linux | jken146: someone told me they could not find the wireless driver installer in their wubi install - I don't have wubi (I use real install), so wanted to verify how to acess the wireless driver setup app. | 04:48 |
| d9500 | iwobbles, if computer janitor does not work, and you want to make sure a package and its configuration files are removed, you can also do a complete removal via terminal with sudo aptitude purge [name of package]. you do need to know the exact package name to do that though. i would recommend the complete removal option in synaptic if you're not sure of the same. | 04:49 |
| Arvan | San234, you need download xchat-common,xchat-gnome,xchat-gnome-common | 04:49 |
| marcelcohrs | okay how do i change the default home dir for my new user? | 04:49 |
| zetheroo | Benalex: yeah .... I just downloaded the other one and cannot download another ISO | 04:49 |
| d9500 | of the name i mean | 04:49 |
| _Er1K_ | PC_Nerd1011: I'm going to guess that bind/named is either dropping privs to one that does not have read access to said file, or is running a chroot jail that does not have access to said file | 04:49 |
| Arvan | San234, try search and download it from packages.ubuntu.com | 04:49 |
| jken146 | linux: I don't know, sorry. It should all work the same way, but I'm not normally a wubi user | 04:49 |
| marcelcohrs | i want it to got to home/ftplinux | 04:50 |
| linux | jken146: okay. thanks for chatting with me. | 04:50 |
| PC_Nerd1011 | _Er1k_: ok.... so no specific ideas as to how to fix that ? | 04:50 |
| megamanx1978 | Albert Some software will be replaced with newer versons and some repositorys will be unmarked but I think that is about it | 04:50 |
| jken146 | marcelcohrs: system>admin>users | 04:50 |
| Benalex | zetheroo the LiveCD doesn't have installable packages that might be used by synaptic | 04:50 |

| jken146 | San234: how are you trying to install them? | 04:50 |
| _Er1K_ | PC_Nerd1011: You can verify that with "sudo chmod a+rX /etc/ssl" and "sudo chmod a+r /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf" | 04:51 |
| iwobbles | d9500 I closed down all other apps the erros went away and the janitor finished ok thanks for the tip eh | 04:51 |

| _Er1K_ | PC_Nerd1011: that will leave things pretty ummmmmmm open. If that fixes it, it's a permissions issue, and you should then adjust accordingly | 04:51 |

| Yanick_ | please help! I have a white screen when I boot Ubuntu 9.10. I tried doing a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but nothing changed | 04:57 |
| Denis | Hi. I encountered an error whilst upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10. I do not have a selection to load 9.10 when loading from grub (i dual boot) only 9.04. Additionally, it seems to load 9.04 with that load screen for about 15 seconds before switching to the new 9.10 load screen. Same happens when shutting down. Furthermore, I have encountered a kind of multi-coloured death screen 3/5 times I tried to get into Ubuntu. I only have the abi | 04:57 |
| demonspork | I found ntfs-config to be an invaluable tool for setting up my NTFS partitions in Fstab, are there any utilities in 9.10 to replace it or am I going to have to look for it in another place, because it isn't available in the repository anymore | 04:57 |
| corden | ntfs5: wubildr error? | 04:57 |
| DengHa | bazhang: Go away. If people want fun its what we want. Stuff your rule book somewhere. | 04:57 |

| judibeefl | Thanks for the login help :> | 04:59 |
| demonspork | in 9.10 64bit with Google Chrome 64bit, I can't seem to click on controls in some flash videos, such as Hulu.com | 05:00 |
| demonspork | and youtube | 05:00 |
| demonspork | oh noes | 05:00 |
| holstein | got on issue with zynaddsubfx... 'zombified - calling shutdown handler' when changeing patches.. outputs disappear from JACK | 05:00 |
| icehawk78 | Nehal: It's alright. I went from DHCP to static IP, but I keep getting "no route found" errors, presumably because /etc/resolv.conf is empty, but I'm not sure what should be there | 05:00 |

| marcelcohrs | hi guys, using vsftpd and would like to change the permissions of my main account to be able to write | 05:01 |
| Nehal | icehawk78: check your routing table 'route' | 05:02 |
| Random832 | so why is mouse pointer type part of the theme? It's so annoying to change it back whenever I set a new theme - no theme ever comes with mouse pointers, it just always goes back to tiny white | 05:02 |
| Nehal | icehawk78: that doesn't sound like a DNS error but a routing problem | 05:02 |
| demonspork | jken146, I know how to do it, I just have soo many different partitions, I loved using ntfs-config because it would automatically set them each up to use NTFS-3g rather than Fuseblk which the system tries to automatically mount them with. It also recognized the partitions by uuid, which was nice if I rearranged hard drives | 05:02 |
| Random832 | I know it used to be in mouse preferences, like a couple years ago | 05:02 |
| icehawk78 | Nehal: Well, when it's on DHCP, it gets online fine. Not sure what I should be looking for, if not that. | 05:03 |
| demonspork | jken146, that guide uses the ntfs-config tool, which is no longer in the package repo | 05:03 |
| jken146 | demonspork: oh, sorry, aysiu must have changed it since I last read it ages ago! | 05:03 |
| jken146 | demonspork: you can do it by uuid manually | 05:04 |
| demonspork | jken146, yeah, I know, but I have 6+ partitions at any given time | 05:04 |
| imi | hello | 05:04 |
| marcelcohrs | hi guys, using vsftpd and would like to change the permissions of my main account to be able to write | 05:04 |
| jken146 | demonspork: only needs setting up once | 05:04 |
| imi | I am unable to use the new kdevelop. is there somewhere any helping material? | 05:04 |
| demonspork | jken146, I pulled a .deb from 9.04 for ntfs-config, it seems to be working | 05:05 |
| hsn | does anyone know how to make a synaptic touchpad work in ubuntu? i upgraded from 9.04 and it doesnt work | 05:05 |
| hsn | help! | 05:05 |
| Denis | Hi. I encountered an error whilst upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10. I do not have a selection to load 9.10 when loading from grub (i dual boot) only 9.04. Additionally, it seems to load 9.04 with that load screen for about 15 seconds before switching to the new 9.10 load screen. Same happens when shutting down. Furthermore, I have encountered a kind of multi-coloured death screen 3/5 times I tried to get into Ubuntu. I only have the abi | 05:05 |
| jken146 | demonspork: cool | 05:05 |
| D3RGPS31 | my fglrx driver displays 3D perfectly, but 2D is extremely choppy; what can i do? | 05:05 |

| jken146 | corden: there's a section on ubuntuforums.org | 05:08 |
| gh0zt | it wouldn't be fresh if you did it within 9.04 | 05:08 |
| Psinetic | I need some serious help. After the upgrade to karmic my hard drive won't boot. I've tired installing the grub again....but it won't work! someone help please? :( | 05:08 |
| Yanick_ | what? | 05:08 |
| lstarnes | Yanick_: what kind of video card are you using? | 05:08 |

| alokito | how to bring back the icons for Preferences, Administration etc. menu in karmic? | 05:09 |
| Nehal | Psinetic: you need to be more specific? at what point does it fail, does the grub boot menu show up? | 05:09 |
| drakeman | hey guys, im normally a debian user, i want to migrate into kubuntu, is there any way to change the boot process in kubuntu, for the normal process in where i see all the components loading at start? | 05:09 |
| corden | ok tnx - still cannot load wubildr | 05:09 |
| drakeman | i dont want to see that kubuntu screen | 05:09 |
| d9500 | kniht: open terminal and type sudo services gdm stop | 05:09 |
| lstarnes | drakeman: edit the config for grub and remove the "quiet" boot option | 05:09 |
| Psinetic | nehal, grub doesn't show up at all. i forget the error it displays, something about UUID | 05:09 |
| lstarnes | drakeman: there may also be a "splash" option | 05:09 |
| Yanick_ | I have a fresh install of 9.10, it worked FINE with 9.04. I removed all .conf in my /home dir before whiping the old 9.04 and installing 9.10 | 05:09 |
| jken146 | drakeman: you could change the option in grub to remove 'splash' and 'quiet' | 05:09 |
| coordinador | ***WHy there is no graphical tool to edit services?? | 05:09 |
| Psinetic | nehal, it tells me it can't mount the disk | 05:09 |
| d9500 | Kniht, then you can switch between VTs w/ alt+2, alt+3, etc | 05:10 |

| hsn | does anyone know how to make a synaptic touchpad work in ubuntu? i upgraded from 9.04 and it doesnt work | 05:10 |
| [V]ortex` | what does this error msg mean during upgrade? W:Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/karmic-security/main/source/Sources.bz2 Hash Sum mismatch | 05:11 |
| [V]ortex` | , E:Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. | 05:11 |
| BoredKender | hsn mine works just fine and i upgraded from 9.04... | 05:11 |
| jken146 | Denis, hsn: please stop reposting your problems. come back later on when different people are here. In the mean time, why not google a bit and/or post in the forums? | 05:11 |
| Nehal | Psinetic: hmm, did you try a filesystem check? perhaps it can't get the second stage loader | 05:11 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: it could mean that the file is corrupt. it's probably a temporary issue | 05:11 |
| Kniht | d9500: 'services' is the right command? wouldn't think I don't have it installed, if so, but can't find it | 05:12 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes: what do i do then? | 05:12 |
| DesertEagle | can someone help me figure out why VLC won't show up, please? | 05:12 |
| mattgyver | Has anyone had the luxury of installing grub2 in 9.10 manually? | 05:12 |
| Psinetic | Nehal: i don't have a clue what you just said | 05:12 |
| hsn | i did google jken146, and i didnt find anything, thats why im here | 05:12 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: wait a couple hours then try again | 05:12 |
| icehawk78 | If a live-cd of 9.10 works on a system, is it likely safe to upgrade after backing up? | 05:12 |
| jken146 | icehawk78: likely, yes. Guaranteed, no. | 05:12 |
| Yanick_ | is this happening to anyone else, or am I the only unfortunate one to have a damn white screen (completely white, nothing else) after logon?? | 05:12 |
| jken146 | icehawk78: (but nothing is guaranteed) | 05:12 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes: ok i'll give it another try first | 05:13 |
| ctmjr | DesertEagle: try it in a terminal and see if you get any errors | 05:13 |
| icehawk78 | jken146: That's what I thought, just checking. Thanks! | 05:13 |
| d9500 | kniht: um, try service. i don't think it should be plural. | 05:13 |
| veggteppe | Hi, was just wondering about the "Ubuntu Certified Professional Training". Is the exam hold in person? or over the internet?, and is the certification something that u can put on your job application? | 05:13 |
| Nehal | Psinetic: let's start from the beginning, how are you installing grub? are you doing it from the ubuntu install disc? | 05:13 |
| djsjr | Yanick, I've had that problem on ATI and NVIDIA cards, sometimes just have to use alternate (text) based install | 05:13 |
| Yanick_ | why would it do that on a fresh install?? | 05:13 |
| hsn | ????????? | 05:13 |
| DesertEagle | ctmjr: main interface error: no suitable interface module | 05:13 |
| d9500 | kniht: if it doesn't work, i'll try it to see | 05:13 |
| Kniht | d9500: thanks much | 05:13 |
| Kniht | 'service' was it | 05:14 |
| hsn | does anyone know how to make a synaptic touchpad work in ubuntu? i upgraded from 9.04 and it doesnt work | 05:14 |
| alokito | i don't have any icon in preference, administrations etc. menu in karmic | 05:14 |
| alokito | is that a bug? | 05:14 |
| Psinetic | nehal, i'm on the live cd right now. someone else helped me before but we couldn't install grub, it wouldn't take. | 05:14 |
| Yanick_ | anyone? | 05:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: whats wrong? | 05:14 |
| icehawk78 | Will do-release-upgrade work on desktop systems over ssh, or is that just for server installs? | 05:14 |
| d9500 | kniht: yeah, my initial pluralization was incorect. that's what i get for trying to help people after being up 16 hours | 05:15 |
| lstarnes | icehawk78: it should work, but you should not use ssh when upgrading | 05:15 |
| Yanick_ | djsjr, what you mean by altenate text install?? | 05:15 |
| oorah | with the new version my brightness flickers up and down at startup and when i try to adjust it. is there a fix? | 05:15 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: i can't boot to my hard drive, it says it can't mount it and says something about two UUID's | 05:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | hmm. | 05:15 |
| Yanick_ | djsjr, the install went alright, all graphics were showing right and all, and then reboot.... then BAM. The screen is all white and end of the line | 05:15 |
| djsjr | Yanick it's a different install ISO / Disk | 05:15 |
| coz_ | hey guys.... is there a repository for degub symbols for karmic/? I am not finding any .dbg in synaptic | 05:15 |
| Kniht | well get some sleep :) | 05:15 |
| === tehbaut| is now known as tehbaut | ||
| icehawk78 | Istarnes: So it's time to dig out a keyboard and mouse, then? | 05:16 |
| === tehbaut is now known as tehbaut| | ||
| djsjr | yanick, sorry didn't see that you had already installed | 05:16 |
| lstarnes | icehawk78: that would be a good idea | 05:16 |
| icehawk78 | Oh goodie | 05:16 |
| === tehbaut| is now known as tehbaut|| | ||
| === tehbaut|| is now known as tehbaut | ||
| djsjr | Yanick when you get the white screen can you do CTRL-ALT-F3 and login with terminal? | 05:17 |
| Yanick_ | djsjr, yes | 05:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | Yanick_: are you using ATI graphics? | 05:17 |
| hsn | does anyone know how to make a synaptic touchpad work in ubuntu? i upgraded from 9.04 and it doesnt work | 05:17 |
| ctmjr | DesertEagle: do you have qt4 installed vlc needs this for it's gui you can also run cvlc "some media file" to see if it works | 05:17 |
| Yanick_ | IndyGunFreak, yes, but Ubuntu 9.04 worked well for the past 6 months without any problem | 05:17 |
| Yanick_ | I am NOT installing 9.10 over 9.04, all .conf were removed, and the whole partition was wiped clean | 05:18 |
| _Er1K_ | hsn: install the "gsynaptics" package, and make sure you have the "synaptics" driver explicitly in your xorg.conf....if you need an example to copy/paste, hollar | 05:18 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: Nehal, any idea what might be going on? | 05:18 |
| Yanick_ | so why now won't it work? | 05:18 |
| lstarnes | Yanick_: it could be a bug in 9.10 | 05:18 |
| jken146 | Yanick_: have you done the integrity check on the CD you used? | 05:18 |
| [V]ortex` | what does the following do? sudo apt-get install -f | 05:19 |
| djsjr | Yanick, obviously a different radeon driver between 9.04 and 9.10 | 05:19 |
| Yanick_ | jken146, as a matter of fact I did, and it passed | 05:19 |
| jken146 | [V]ortex`: it finishes installing packages that it's half done | 05:19 |
| Yanick_ | djsjr, I was using the proprietary one before and it worked fine | 05:19 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: it attempts to install and fix broken packages | 05:19 |
| Yanick_ | even the recovery mode display a damn white screen | 05:19 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes: a google suggested this solution to my previous problem; should i go ahead? | 05:20 |
| [V]ortex` | jken146: thanks | 05:20 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: no, that doesn't make a whole lot of sense... | 05:20 |
| jken146 | Yanick_: right. That's the most obvious cause discounted. Erm, try going into recovery console and setting it up with the non-free driver | 05:20 |
| Yanick_ | I would HOPE at least to have a VGA only display in debug mode.... | 05:20 |
| djsjr | Yanick, I'm sure that Ubuntu default installs the open source version and then you have to install proprietary version after boot | 05:20 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: probably not | 05:20 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: >_> | 05:20 |
| jken146 | Yanick_: oh, even then? ewww, that's not nice | 05:20 |
| * Psinetic cries | 05:20 | |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: that seems like an error on the repository mirror itself | 05:20 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: how did you attempt to do this install? | 05:20 |
| IndyGunFreak | were you disconnecting drives, etc? | 05:20 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes: so it is not my fault?, as in there's a server problem? | 05:21 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: exactly | 05:21 |
| djsjr | Yanick , I miss xorg.conf | 05:21 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: at least that's the most likely case | 05:21 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes: oh, ok... is any another way to get to another server? | 05:21 |
| IndyGunFreak | djsjr: you and me both... i took one I had on 9.04 and used it.. :) | 05:21 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: I'm not sure if the security repos have a mirror | 05:21 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes: and this must mean everyone else is getting the same problem? | 05:21 |
| Yanick_ | ... ok, that was weird | 05:21 |
| boomer84 | Guys, is it ok to ask for a bit of (stupidly simple) technical help here? | 05:21 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: this is how i attempted it: "do-release-upgrade" or "do-release-update" i don't remember which | 05:21 |
| lstarnes | boomer84: yes | 05:21 |
| KB1JWQ | boomer84: Don't ask to ask, just ask. | 05:22 |
| KB1JWQ | boomer84: I promise we'll tell you if you're in the wrong place. :-) | 05:22 |
| gh0zt | don't tell them to not ask to ask, just answer | 05:22 |
| gh0zt | :P | 05:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: oh ok, you did an upgrade from 9.04.... was thinking you clean installed | 05:22 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: actually, I think it is mirrored | 05:22 |
| boomer84 | cool, I am trying to install usb-creator, I have unpacked the tarball but not sure where to go next, my usual route of ./configure aint working. | 05:22 |
| Yanick_ | the thing is that I don't know how to configure my wifi other than with the applet (xserver).... and since I can't get anything to display, I can't configure my wifi | 05:22 |
| Yanick_ | so I can't install the proprietary drivers | 05:22 |
| lstarnes | boomer84: what happens when you do that? | 05:22 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes: ok, thanks for your input; i'll try again tmr or something | 05:23 |
| lstarnes | Yanick_: there should be a way to configure it from the console | 05:23 |
| boomer84 | says no such file or directory | 05:23 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: no, it wasn't a clean install. but it's really extremely frustrating that i'm having so many problems with ubuntu. >_> | 05:23 |
| lstarnes | boomer84: pastebin the list of files included with it | 05:23 |
| Yanick_ | the question is: how do I remove the ATI drivers from the shell when I don't know the name of the package I need to remove?? | 05:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: believe me, i understand, i ended up reinstalling on my laptop, and it seems to be running swimmingly now. | 05:23 |
| boomer84 | Sorry Istarnes, I dont understant | 05:23 |
| lstarnes | boomer84: type ls | 05:23 |
| djsjr | Yanick, what happened? | 05:23 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: haha, no, you don't. i've had ubuntu for a month now and have been "fixing" the darned thing ever since. everytime i turn around something breaks. | 05:24 |
| lstarnes | boomer84: then go to http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste its output there, then give me the resulting link | 05:24 |
| Yanick_ | djsjr, I don't know, was bombarded with CTCP requests or something | 05:24 |
| boomer84 | bin, debian, desktop, gui, man. scripts, setup.py, usbcreator | 05:24 |
| wit_273 | I am a loss on what to do to trouble shoot this problem -- I updated to 9.10. Now my wireless will not connect. I can see the network and it shows great signal (just not connected) until I try to connect. Once I try to connect it shows no signal--but I still see it is there. | 05:24 |
| robin01 | hi | 05:24 |
| boomer84 | all folders apart from setup.py | 05:24 |
| lstarnes | boomer84: try python ./setup.py | 05:24 |
| Kniht | d9500: that works, but did what I was hoping it wouldn't-- closing down X. I just realized I can remote in to the VM though, so I'm going to do that, unless you know another way? | 05:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: well.. that happens... i cant tell you how many times i installed/reinstalled during my first 3-4mo.. but typically, its hard to really bork something in ubuntu | 05:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: but it does get easier once you get the hang of it... i rarely have problems that result in a reinstall nowdays. | 05:25 |
| Yanick_ | how to configure xserver to use VGA only in the shell console? | 05:25 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: well...i still can't boot grub... | 05:25 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: yeah, are you on a 9.04 live cd, or 9.10 live cd? | 05:26 |
| boomer84 | err, command not found. although I have an install.py the scripts folder | 05:26 |
| lstarnes | boomer84: you don't have python? | 05:26 |
| Yanick_ | if I can at least get a GUI, I can manage to fix my problem, but now I'm in a dead end with a broken fresh 9.10 install | 05:26 |
| boomer84 | err maybe not. lol | 05:26 |
| Psinetic | 9.04 | 05:26 |
| boomer84 | Istarnes, I will explain the real problem. | 05:26 |
| djsjr | Yanick, dpkg --get-selections | grep phpdpkg --get-selections | grep ATI | 05:26 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: sry, 9.04 | 05:26 |
| lstarnes | boomer84: try python -c "print 'foo'" | 05:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: i dunno if you can install grub from the live CD or not. | 05:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: i know w/ regular grub, you could.. don't know about grub2(which i hate, by the way) | 05:27 |
| * Psinetic slams head on desk | 05:27 | |
| exodus_ms | !grub | 05:27 |
| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 05:27 |
| Yanick_ | djsjr, was that the command to get the ATI packages installed? | 05:27 |
| boomer84 | oh wait, I actually needed to type "python ./setup.py | 05:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | exodus_ms: problem is, all those docs, refer to grub.. not grub2. | 05:27 |
| djsjr | Yanick yes | 05:27 |

| d9500 | kniht: not really. you may be able to work around the closing down of x by setting your gnome session to remember your currently running apps when you log back in, and then once you're drop to VT and done whatever administering you needed to do from terminal, run sudo service gdm start and logging back in. hopefully, your apps will be running right where they left off. haven't tried it though | 05:29 |
| Psinetic | exodus_ms: problem with this is i have no idea how to install it to a disk that doesn't mount to begin with. | 05:29 |
| andey | im just curious, how long does it take for a raid to grow from 3 to 4 drives.... 1tb 7200k sataII each drive. Are we talking hours or days. I have a quad 2.4ghz, and 4gb ddr2 ram | 05:29 |
| Yanick_ | djsjr, thanks! I appreciate it | 05:29 |

| boomer84 | Istarnes, the real problem is that my computer wont seem to boot from a usb created by unetbootin on windows. the usb key works on other netbooks but not on my eeepc so I thought trying usb-creator on linux might work instead | 05:30 |
| kaikun | nvm i got my answer | 05:30 |
| tritium | bazhang: it still finds the printer, just not the fax or scanner. In 9.04, when installing a printer, I could choose between hplip and another driver (PS, I think). The hplip driver offered found both the printer and the scanner. No such choice over drivers in 9.10. | 05:30 |
| Kniht | d9500: thanks for helping in any case | 05:30 |
| Shwack | All of my sounds work except for in games, can anybody help? | 05:30 |
| bazhang | tritium, just checking the forums now, thanks for the additional info | 05:30 |

| boomer84 | Will try some other things n check back, thanks for the help. And now I know I am allowed to ask questions here I wont ask to ask ;-) | 05:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: have you tried running the commands to see what happens... probably would be difficult to use a 9.04 disk, to check grub on 9.10 system | 05:31 |
| tritium | bazhang: thanks! | 05:31 |

| IndyGunFreak | they're always slow for at least a few days. | 05:33 |
| tritium | bazhang: it would appear to be an unfortunate regression in 9.10 | 05:34 |
| djsjr | Jeffhmb, I torrented and got 9.10 in less than 6 minutes | 05:34 |
| San234 | some1 plzz help me i have taken proxy but mail sites like gmail and yahoomail arent opening and xchat IRC is also failing to conect | 05:34 |

| Kniht | d9500: as soon as you said that I remembered it has a bunch of shortcuts with that key, besides ungrabbing, works perfectly | 05:36 |
| San234 | coz_, if u dont know networking then can u tell me y my softwares arent getting installed in ubuntu/? i hav thier linux version setups still the y arent geting installd | 05:36 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: you want me to wipe my hard drive? "$ sudo fdisk -l" and "$ sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt"? | 05:36 |
| jeffhmb | San234: what's your networking setup? proxy? | 05:36 |
| Kniht | what did you query? (I couldn't find it) | 05:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: ?.. thats not gonna wipe your hard drive | 05:36 |
| San234 | jeffhmb, ya i hav taken proxy from my frend | 05:36 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: format disk doesn't wipe the disk? | 05:37 |
| d9500 | kniht: use ctrl alt f1 in ubuntu virtualbox | 05:37 |
| djsjr | I wonder why the 9.10 installer will not see my hdd, but gparted and fdisk will? | 05:37 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: thats not the format disk command. | 05:37 |
| AAA_awright | The upgrade wants to install cvs and python, is there some way to figure out why with the change in repository URL? What is so incredibly broken that there is no rolling release? | 05:37 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: the first command, simply lists your partition layout... the second command, mounts whatever partition you tell it to. | 05:37 |
| jeffhmb | San234: socks proxy? how are you specifying it? | 05:37 |
| SoftwareExplorer | Psinetic: It list the partitions on a disk IIRC | 05:37 |
| Psinetic | you know what. just tell me how to put my home directory on the partition i put up for it before and i'll just do a clean install. | 05:37 |
| San234 | jeffhmb, i went to preferences there network proxy their my frends ip and port 808 | 05:38 |
| Kniht | d9500: think part of it was my use of 'terminal' instead of 'vt' too >< oh well, take care | 05:38 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: try doing what the faq says, it might work... hell your nowhere now, you might as well try.... fdisk only formats a drive whne you tell it to, and neither of those commands should do that | 05:38 |
| jeffhmb | San234: in Xchat? What Type: setting? | 05:38 |

| Kate | =/ | 05:47 |
| djsjr | cycrosism, the newer the card usually the more immature the drivers | 05:47 |
| djsjr | Kate I saw something bout that in the release notes? | 05:48 |
| Psinetic | cycrosism: it really depends. hardware venders sometimes don't support linux, and WE have to make those drivers, it takes a while, because sometimes the drivers don't work. there are substitutes that you can use, but sometimes they don't perform at max perficiency. | 05:48 |
| cycrosism | why is that | 05:48 |

| losha | Psinetic: you misread it. Ubunto does livecd, but not without having the cd inserted.... | 05:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: you have to set it in your boot sequence int he bios. | 05:53 |
| Kate | So it auto-writes over the md type partitions =/ | 05:53 |
| coz_ | goddard, yes there is google chrome for linux or you can get webkit and build your own :) | 05:53 |

| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: if you can boot a USB device, you can use the 9.04 live CD, to download a 9.10 live CD, use unetbootin to put the ISO on a flash drive(probably 2gigs).. boot it, and try to use the flash drive, to restore grub2 | 05:54 |

| jeffhmb | San_, why are you trying to use a proxy? | 05:57 |
| losha | Psinetic: one reason is people insist on running stuff that's fresh out of beta. New software is buggy, folks. Try 8.04 LTS instead... | 05:57 |
| Necrogami | jeffhmb: i think it's because his local network isn't working | 05:57 |
| Necrogami | eg: he doesn't have the correct nameservers et. | 05:57 |

| cycrosism | ctmjr: What should I use then? | 05:58 |
| maxjezy | IndyGunFreak, there are lots of ways solving that prob | 05:58 |
| Necrogami | San_: can you be on irc and ubuntu at the same time? | 05:58 |
| San_ | jeffhmb, actuall problem is that i havnt created a internet conection in ubuntu cos i dont know how to cos m new to it so trying proxy | 05:58 |

| Hans_Henrik | Psinetic: whats wrong with grub? | 05:59 |
| jeffhmb | San_, what is asnt? | 05:59 |
| Necrogami | jeffhmb: good luck .. he's not on ubuntu right now so we can't walk him through step by step | 05:59 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: well that's what i thought you meant. sry | 06:00 |
| [V]ortex` | hello how do i map local drives (non ext. format) upon startup automatically? | 06:00 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: i think thats part of the problem you're not listening | 06:00 |
| cycrosism | ok i instaled it ctmjr | 06:00 |

| IndyGunFreak | maxjezy: thats for grub1 | 06:00 |
| jbuncher | [V]ortex`, throw them in your /etc/fstab, with largely the same syntax, just need to change the fs option | 06:00 |
| jeffhmb | San_, ;-) | 06:00 |

| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: what do you mean? sorry i'm new | 06:01 |
| Psinetic | Hans_Henrik: yes, it gives me an error on bootup saying it can't mount the disk at all and says something about two UUID's (dunno what that is) | 06:01 |
| maxjezy | IndyGunFreak, no hard feelings bro, just try to help out | 06:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | maxjezy: here's the problem, since you've not folowed it at all,, he's trying to use a 9.04 disk(which uses grub1) to fix a 9.10 problem(which uses grub2), now if you're gonna tell people there's other ways to do things(insinuating i don't know), at least know whats going on | 06:01 |
| frank_b | I have 8.10 installed on a laptop and want to upgrade directly to 9.10, bypassing 9.04. What's the "apt-get dist-upgrade" command I have to use? | 06:01 |

| frank_b | (hi everyone) | 06:02 |
| maf2 | hi | 06:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | maxjezy: but when you're not even paying attention to the conversation, you don't help at all. | 06:02 |
| jbuncher | [V]ortex`, google "adding mount points to fstab" or something like that, it should take you through it. | 06:02 |
| maxjezy | IndyGunFreak, i just got up from bed | 06:02 |
| bazhang | frank_b, there isnt one | 06:02 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: ok thanks | 06:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: do you have a 2gig thumb drive? | 06:02 |
| jeffhmb | Kate, I had to manually clear out the partition identifiers so the auto-raid kernel code wouldn't fire up during install. | 06:02 |
| ctmjr | cycrosism:but they both need some configuration i use mplayer and freevo to watch tv | 06:02 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: i think we're all a little frustrated. the irc is flooded with people having problems left and right. | 06:02 |
| losha | frank_b: if your 8.10 does all you need, I'm not even sure why you'd want to upgrade... | 06:02 |
| frank_b | bazhang, oh, ok. yes, I was begining to suspect that. thank you very much for your answer. take care. | 06:02 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: i'll have to look | 06:02 |
| jbuncher | [V]ortex`, the file you'll want to edit is /etc/fstab (File System TABle} | 06:02 |
| Necrogami | IndyGunFreak: are you actually in indy? | 06:03 |
| maxjezy | anyone got a mobile connection to help me out? | 06:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: i'm not frustrated at alll, all he's done is make undercut sugestions that i'm tellignn you something wrong, and he knows squat about whats going on | 06:03 |
| bazhang | frank_b, do you have a separate home partition | 06:03 |
| frank_b | losha, I guess it's always a good idea to have the latest software | 06:03 |
| jeffhmb | Kate, I believe I did this from within the live CD, or perhaps using my old favorite for fixing stuff, sysresccd. | 06:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | Necrogami: beech grove more specifically, but yes | 06:03 |
| Necrogami | IndyGunFreak: did you goto BGHS? | 06:03 |
| cycrosism | ctmjr: How do I configure them? | 06:03 |
| ctmjr | cycrosism: are you in the usa? | 06:03 |
| cycrosism | ctmjr: Australia | 06:03 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: ok, well, then let's move on and see if we can't nick this thing in the bud. let me go to the restroom and grab an energy drink. | 06:03 |
| jeffhmb | Kate, I have no idea if ubuntu has made any changes to deal with this situation. | 06:03 |
| jbuncher | losha, because it's going to be EOL in 6 months anyway? | 06:04 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: Ok thanks for the input! i'll upgrade to 9.10 and change from there | 06:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | Necrogami: nope, when i was younger, i lived in Indy, and went to howe | 06:04 |
| losha | frank_b: actually, the smart money says it's always a good idea to run a couple of releases behind the 'bleeding edge' | 06:04 |
| maxjezy | IndyGunFreak, now i know. but i keep my mouth shut cuz you can help him out, i thought he got the 9.10 or windows installed. really morningtired. | 06:04 |
| frank_b | bazhang, in this computer no. otherwise I could play with that, yes. I know how could I do that if I have seperate root and home partitions. thanks | 06:04 |
| Necrogami | lol okay IndyGunFreak i graduated from bghs that's why i asked lol | 06:04 |
| === gh0zt_afk is now known as gh0zt_ | ||

| Kate | Weird. =/ | 06:04 |
| Kate | Ya | 06:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | maxjezy: its best you stay quiet, lol... | 06:04 |
| jbuncher | [V]ortex`, what is the filesystem you are trying to get mounted at boot automatically? | 06:04 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: after i upgrade, will the settings keep? | 06:04 |
| Kate | It's kinda annoying. There is purge_lvm.. | 06:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | he did get 9.10 installed | 06:04 |
| pwnguin | so im having an unexpected difficulty; i upgraded to 9.10 and now firefox doesn't know how to handle .torrent files | 06:04 |
| Kate | But no purge_raid option :( | 06:04 |
| frank_b | losha, oh, ok. :) I didn't know that. my experience tells me you might be right. thanks for the tip :) | 06:04 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: windows xp, cos my rthymplayer keeps not detecting the songs i have on my other hdd | 06:04 |
| jeffhmb | Kate, are these boot command-line options? | 06:05 |
| maxjezy | yeah | 06:05 |
| celestial | hi, can't get usb mice to work, i have two of them and none of them is working, though i clearly see its red light. usb thumbdrive is working fine and i don't know why i'm having trouble with just mice. someone help. | 06:05 |

| jbuncher | [V]ortex`, they should, yes. Do you know what partition (/dev/sda1 or whatever) that your xp partition is on? and where you would like to mount it to? | 06:05 |
| losha | frank_b: most people assume newer is always better. That might be true for cars or refrigerators, but it isn't true for software... | 06:05 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: another hdd | 06:05 |
| jeffhmb | I didn't think to look for that. | 06:05 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: what do you mean? i don't understand? | 06:06 |
| frank_b | losha, :) I see... | 06:06 |
| cab938_lappy | Andyone use the update-motd package? | 06:06 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: my 9.10 download is completing soon within 1 min.. and appartenly it says i cannot stop after it starts installing | 06:06 |
| ctmjr | cycrosism: look in /usr/share/dvb there should be freq's for your location | 06:06 |
| jeffhmb | I just set the partition types to Linux (83) after being very confused for a while. | 06:06 |
| cab938_lappy | it says it installs in usr/sbin/update-motd, but there is nothing there | 06:06 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: so i think i'll do it in 9.10; there is no diff right? | 06:06 |
| cycrosism | ctmjr: But I don't think it is detecting it | 06:06 |
| Bragex9 | I have major problems after upgrading to 9.10. The computer will not start properly. Only a black command screen...And I have no idea about how to operate from there | 06:06 |
| pretender | running unr 9.10 how do i stop that unr launchuncher and get back t the normal gnome thats in ubuntu | 06:06 |
| jeffhmb | I had forgotten that my recycled disks had been used in a different raid array. | 06:06 |
| jbuncher | [V]ortex`, there shouldn't be any difference, correct. | 06:07 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: ok, i have to restart; if i have any problems i'll come back; thanks alot!! | 06:07 |
| frank_b | losha, and thinking better... I think I'm gonna take your advice on that. it's the computer my mom uses, and she's not interested on the latest features, just on functionality... :) | 06:07 |
| D7 | is there a way to switch to regular desktop mode in netbook remix? | 06:07 |
| bravo03 | D7, i don't believe so in 9.10 | 06:07 |
| bravo03 | somebody please correct me if i am wrong | 06:07 |
| jeffhmb | I'm getting about 15 kB/s for my upgrade speed. | 06:08 |
| jeffhmb | About 20 hours remaining. | 06:08 |
| jeffhmb | Nice. | 06:08 |
| almoxarife | silentx: did you use 'sudo' | 06:08 |
| gluonman | What is an optimal partition table for a dual-boot Ubuntu and Win7? | 06:08 |
| jbuncher | frank_b, on the other hand, if you're using Intrepid (8.10), security updates for desktop-related packages for that distro will stop in about 6 months, so you'll want to upgrade anyway. | 06:08 |
| D7 | bravo03, really? bummer, I really liked 9.4 in regular desktop mode | 06:08 |
| losha | frank_b: in that case, leave well enough alone and use the time you saved yourself to make a backup of 8.10 in case you need it.... | 06:08 |
| silentx | almoxarife: in which way ? | 06:08 |
| frank_b | losha, I might upgrade only later, some weeks from now, after some bugs have been solved... | 06:08 |
| jbuncher | gluonman, one for root, one for home, one for swap, zero for win 7 (har har har) | 06:08 |
| almoxarife | sudo apt-get............................................ | 06:09 |
| silentx | yes .. that what i have done in the output attached | 06:09 |
| NoCode | http://www.webupd8.org/2009/10/fixing-popping-sound-in-ubuntu-karmic.html IS this safe to do to get rid of the popping noises in Karmic? | 06:09 |
| gluonman | jbuncher, I'm setting this up for work. So that's not very helpful. | 06:09 |
| nascentmind | hi. After i installed virtualbox and tried to install ubuntu 64 bit on it, it gives an error saying "installing 64 bit on an i686". my host os is ubuntu 64bit karmic. how can i fix this? | 06:09 |
| frank_b | losha, ok | 06:09 |
| losha | jbuncher: actually, unless there's a feature you cannot live without, 8.04 looks like the most stable release | 06:10 |
| frank_b | jbuncher, yes, like I said, I think I'll wait some weeks for bugs to be fixed and then install 9.10 before the support for 8.10 ends | 06:10 |
| ctmjr | cycrosism: according to your dmesg it loaded the driver and the firmware | 06:10 |
| cycrosism | ctmjr: But me-tv says no drivers are found and so does mythtv | 06:10 |
| jbuncher | gluonman, if it's anything like vista, I have 2 vista partitions on /dev/sda1 (that's the recovery), /dev/sda2 (Vista), and the /dev/sda3 is my root install, then /dev/sda5 is /home, with /dev/sda6 the swap. It works well for me. | 06:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | losha: that is 100% ridiculous, why do you spread nonsense? | 06:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | 8.04, is just as stable as 8.10, and 9.04 | 06:10 |
| jeffhmb | 8.04 is LTS, so it's a good choice for stability. | 06:11 |
| jeffhmb | I've been using it on my server since just after it came out. | 06:11 |
| silentx | almoxarife: yes .. that what i have done in the output attached | 06:11 |
| jeffhmb | Very solid, and only updates that are security or critical bugs. | 06:11 |
| bigfootbuilt | Anyone else noticing more lockups with 9.10, on laptops in particular? | 06:11 |
| IndyGunFreak | jeffhmb: 8.04 LTS, has only to do with a corporate environment, where you have t omaintain a lot of machines, or ins ome cases a server | 06:11 |
| Bragex9 | is there a way to go back to the previoios version of ubuntu? Nothing works after installing 9.10. The computer won't even start. I only get to the command line... | 06:11 |
| jbuncher | losha, yeah, I'm still running 8.04 for my "production" partitions. Can't remember why intrepid didn't work. Jaunty's intel issues and the horrible version of kile they packaged made that a non-starter. Karmic is quite solid though. | 06:12 |
| frank_b | well, I better get going. thank you very much for your help and for your tips, bazhang, losha and jbuncher. take care all of you. ;) | 06:12 |
| maxjezy | IndyGunFreak, some experience 9.04 less stable with intel grafics than 8.04. | 06:12 |
| nascentmind | anybody? | 06:12 |
| gluonman | jbuncher, thank you. | 06:12 |
| losha | IndyGunFreak: actually, I don't know of any statistics, official or otherwise, to prove it your way or mine... | 06:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | maxjezy: you've lost all credibility with me, so what you say means little | 06:12 |
| almoxarife | silentx: I saw it, hang on | 06:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | losha: which is why its nonsense to suggest such a thing w/o evidence.. | 06:12 |
| jbuncher | gluonman, I should add that partitions 5 and 6 are in an extended partition, as you can only have 4 primaries on a disk. | 06:12 |
| maxjezy | that's sick thinking | 06:13 |
| IndyGunFreak | 8.04 LTS, doesnt mean its more stable, it means ubuntu will support it with security updates for(i think) 3yrs. | 06:13 |
| silentx | almoxarife: oky .. Thnx for your help in advanced .. | 06:13 |
| jeffhmb | IndyGunFreak, I realize that. I use it on my home server. | 06:13 |
| IndyGunFreak | jeffhmb: then why are you telling people LTS is more stable? | 06:13 |
| pwnguin | bravo03: sorry, paged elsewhere momentarily. it seems to download to /tmp but doesn't launch deluge when told what to run | 06:13 |
| IndyGunFreak | its not... | 06:13 |
| gluonman | jbuncher, alright. | 06:13 |
| ctmjr | cycrosism: run ls /dev/dvb/adapter0 or just ls /dev/dvb | 06:13 |
| bravo03 | pwnguin, just save torrent and right click open with deluge for now ... : / | 06:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | LTS has nothing to do w/ stability | 06:14 |
| jbuncher | IndyGunFreak, next one will, though. | 06:14 |
| pwnguin | bravo03: i got that part, but this used to work | 06:14 |
| jeffhmb | IndyGunFreak, it's more stable in the sense that you can leave it alone once it is working for you, but still get security and critical updates. | 06:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | unless you consider not upgrading every 6mo | 06:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | jeffhmb: i mentioned that | 06:14 |
| jbu | hi all...can i revert the upgrade to 9.10 somehow? | 06:14 |

| losha | IndyGunFreak: it's my considered *opinion*. You're welcome to your own. I will note that you don't seem to understand the software life-cycle... | 06:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | jeffhmb: but thats not stability, thats support... | 06:14 |

| IndyGunFreak | thast the 3rd time you've said that nonsense | 06:16 |
| demonspork | Anarki2004, you are in window right now? | 06:17 |
| jbuncher | IndyGunFreak, that could be true, but that also means 8.04 has had over a year of bugfixes since it's release, and 3 point releases since then to help with installer issues. Also, the next LTS will certainly be "more stable", that's part of the dev plan. | 06:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | jbuncher: because the next LTS.. will be a NEW VERSION.. so yes, it will be more stable. | 06:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | jeez... talk about throwing smoke on an issue... | 06:17 |

| IndyGunFreak | jeffhmb: whatever... use LTS if you like, i could truthfully care less, but spreading lies really helps nobody. | 06:18 |
| jbuncher | IndyGunFreak, no, it will be more stable than previous releases because they're going to sync with debian testing and not be a feature based released, unlike all previous releases (including LTS ones) where they sync with unstable. | 06:18 |
| bravo03 | LTS is suppose to resemble a milestone for each release | 06:18 |

| Banjooie | Alternately: This thing is only a 1ghz 256mb ram thingy, is it worth my while to try to upgrade anyway? | 06:25 |
| Banjooie | Or should I just, like, try to find ancient software considering all it has to do is basically run finch | 06:25 |

| d9500 | san234, or by "install" do you mean that you've downloaded a source tarball (for example "source_foo.tar.gz), and you want to know how to compile and install the program? | 06:26 |
| Hans_Henrik | Banjooie: low spec, upgrade anyway? question. | 06:26 |
| fire_ | well when I boot into Ubuntu (9.10) the little white ubuntu logo appears, but then a terminal login appears, that's flickering and won't let me enter anything. I then tried booting via recovery mode. That allowed me to type something in, but when I tried 'startx' it says no screens were found (or nvidia drivers or something) | 06:26 |
| Banjooie | Oh. | 06:26 |
| maxjizzy | Banjooie, i'm on 900mhz and 256 ram and 16mb grafic. it is superfast. | 06:26 |
| Banjooie | Okay. Awesome. | 06:26 |
| roccity_ | Banjooie, you can try the mini cd and install xfce-core on it and build from there | 06:26 |
| jbuncher | Banjooie, can't say, not even sure what finch is :) If you're just planning on having a stripped down box, maybe try debian or something where you can customize the install a bit more. | 06:26 |
| negativeglow | hey yall | 06:27 |
| Banjooie | The trick here is I am really trying for a low-effort option where I just type things and they happen, as opposed to things where I have to burn CDs. I will /do/ that if I have to I just really don't want to | 06:27 |

| jeffhmb | jbuncher, I ran into a problem when upgrading from intrepid to jaunty with my nvidia drivers. | 06:32 |
| jeffhmb | it was a common problem and I found most of what I needed to know on launchpad, but it was a little nerve-wracking. | 06:32 |
| [V]ortex` | hello i just upgraded to 9.10, but it doesn't look any different. How to tell if this is actually 9.10 i'm running? | 06:32 |
| jbuncher | jeffhmb, ah, that sucks. I *think* that went well for me, though I did it a while ago so I can't remember. I know they were certainly *eventually* working, though. | 06:32 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: lsb_release -a | 06:32 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes: do i type that into the terminal? | 06:33 |

| Hans_Henrik | Banjooie: umm.. maybe you should go at #Xubuntu and ask how to change desktop environment.. (add Xubuntu repo's, uninstall gnome, install Xfce~) | 06:33 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher: ok yep karmic it is | 06:33 |
| raik | does ubuntu 9.10 support DSL connection? | 06:33 |

| DaveyAM | guys synaptic send me error when i try to download packs... i did use a proxy configuration today in my job but iam without proxy now.. synaptic try to connect to proxy :S | 06:34 |
| Yanick_ | jbuncher, I did "sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep radeon" (and fglrx) and removed them all, thus allowing me to boot without white screen. I then reinstalled everything, re-activated the restricted drivers from hardware manager and everything was fine | 06:34 |
| [V]ortex` | Does 9.10 uninstall firefox 3.5? how come my links are broken? | 06:34 |
| jbuncher | Yanick_, ah, so was the problem with the open drivers? | 06:34 |
| lstarnes | raik: I haven't heard anything about it not supporting DSL | 06:34 |
| goose | DaveyAM: then disable your proxy | 06:34 |
| qq99 | how does one find a file in linux?! never before would I have thought this so annoying, but with the myriad of package managers installing everything to cryptically named directories, you'd think something would be done about this | 06:34 |
| Yanick_ | jbuncher, note that, when reinstalling the packages, some new packages were also installed, which I had not before | 06:34 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: it installs 3.5 | 06:34 |

| qq99 | lstarnes: returns nothing | 06:35 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes: does this mean firefox 3 is uninstalled? | 06:35 |
| Yanick_ | jeffhmb, I suspect it was the fglrx kernel driver.... | 06:35 |
| jbuncher | jeffhmb, I may have done that when upgradeing as well. Almost certainly didn't that when going from hardy to intrepid at least. | 06:35 |
| jeffhmb | It really seems like Ubuntu needs to automate this fallback process to non-proprietary drivers. | 06:35 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: no | 06:35 |
| fire_ | jeffhmb: No packages foudn matching nvidia. | 06:35 |

| savior021 | does anyone know of a player for ubuntu that supports m2ts???? | 06:45 |
| fire_ | the first link you posted. | 06:45 |
| fire_ | someone had posted a method. | 06:45 |
| savior021 | ??? | 06:46 |
| fire_ | I did it a little differently to what they did, so I'll post it. | 06:46 |
| Psinetic | I need some help. I'm on Ubuntu 9.04, i need to make a fresh install, but i can't burn the live cd b/c i only have one cd drive. Now I've got my windows laptop networked to my desktop directly (it doesn't have internet capability), i can rdesktop to it. i need to transfer this .iso image for the 9.10 ubuntu over to the desktop of my windows computer. can anyone help me with this please? | 06:46 |
| jbuncher | reflous, it got replaced with the deja vu fonts, so it doesn't exist anymore. This pisses off mathematica 6 by the way, so you'll want to set up a font substitution if that's what you're using. | 06:46 |
| lstarnes | poyntz: ubuntu's recovery mode uses the same partition as the regular install | 06:46 |
| node357 | Sorry savior021, I don't know. | 06:46 |
| wooly | node357: i've got a thread about it here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305339 basically another guy said he had the same problem but the installer asked if he wanted to decrypt his home and it worked so I did that and it failed | 06:46 |
| lstarnes | poyntz: it should be an option in the grub menu | 06:46 |
| savior021 | dayummmmm | 06:46 |
| jeffhmb | fire_, "dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-185-kernel-source" ? | 06:46 |
| jbuncher | zedster, what brand are the stac chips? I don't think I've heard of them...... | 06:46 |
| reflous | jbuncher, doh - what is an equivalent? | 06:46 |
| fire_ | I did sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak | 06:46 |
| * node357 checks out the thread | 06:46 | |
| poyntz | lstarnes: yeah, that's what I mean. it's not. all the recovery modes are for DL only :/ | 06:46 |
| fire_ | and then sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 06:46 |
| DaveyAM | <paulus68> in synaptic configuration is direct connection... | 06:47 |
| wooly | node357 thanks! | 06:47 |
| jbuncher | reflous, the deja vu fonts should be an equivalent, deja vu just has some extra glyphs and such apparently. | 06:47 |
| jbu | if someone puts a realtek karmic sound patch in the ubuntu store i will buy | 06:47 |
| lstarnes | poyntz: did you ever set a root password? | 06:47 |
| [V]ortex` | how do i install flash? | 06:47 |
| jeffhmb | fire_, OK, yes that often does the job. I was trying to help out somebody here yesterday, but that method did not work. | 06:47 |
| DaLvLaL | anyone here uses apt-p2p? I can't even get apt-get update to finish with that...it just freeze | 06:47 |
| jbuncher | reflous, from what I could tell, deja vu was a superset of bistream vera, so that's why bitstream vera got removed. | 06:47 |
| fire_ | and then sudo aptitude install nvidia-173-kernal-source | 06:47 |
| fire_ | and then startx | 06:47 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 06:47 |
| fire_ | and boom! it worked :D | 06:47 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, should I try to do the same as Fire? | 06:47 |
| jeffhmb | fire_, oh, you needed 173? | 06:47 |
| fire_ | I'm not sure. | 06:48 |
| zedster | jbuncher: stac is an idt holdover, I think they bought someone else and use the chip for a little | 06:48 |
| reflous | jbuncher, ah, man that looks a lot better, thanks a lot | 06:48 |
| lstarnes | wooly: I think there may be a way to recover data from ecryptfs, but I'll need some time to figure out the procedure | 06:48 |
| fire_ | I just did what someone had said on the first link you posted for me to look at. | 06:48 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, the removal of the xorg.conf is always a good first thing to try. | 06:48 |
| Psinetic | anyone know how to do this pls? | 06:48 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, is there a package for media apps and fonts? | 06:48 |
| jbuncher | reflous, what were you trying to use that font in? | 06:48 |
| node357 | Sorry wooly, no idea.. :( | 06:48 |
| fire_ | Bragex9: It worked for me, can't hurt to try. | 06:48 |
| wooly | lstarnes: i have to recover? There's no way to simply mount it? I backed up /var/lib/ecryptfs if it's of any use | 06:48 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: ubuntu-restricted-extras and msttcorefonts might be relevant | 06:48 |
| raik | lstarnes, yes it is using ethernet cable. | 06:48 |
| reflous | jbuncher, for my fixed width font, every thing I picked made it look HORRIBLE until I tried DejaVu Sans Mono Book | 06:48 |
| wooly | node357 thanks for looking...I wish they would have this better supported before they included it in the OS!! | 06:49 |
| Bragex9 | Fire, I wil try now | 06:49 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, that's waht i was looking for thanks! | 06:49 |
| wooly | especially when it can render your system useless | 06:49 |
| fire_ | thanks for all the help :) | 06:49 |
| wooly | i cant write any configuration files to home so I have no desktop | 06:49 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: yeah, but I can't use sudo because I took my username out of the admin group :/ | 06:49 |
| raik | lstarnes yes it is using ethernet cable | 06:49 |
| lstarnes | wooly: I'm not sure if you can copy that data into the new /var/lib/ecryptfs | 06:49 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, how do i access that restricted extras? | 06:49 |
| lstarnes | raik: I saw. please try not to repeat | 06:49 |
| node357 | I know wooly.. they release every 6 months whether its' ready or not... I'm still stuck in Windows :| | 06:49 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: it's a package. | 06:49 |
| wooly | yea /var/lib/ecryptfs isnt even used in 9.10 apparently | 06:49 |
| Random832 | so... the icon isn't shown in the upper left corner anymore in the human theme... how do i get it back short of changing to a different window manager theme | 06:49 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, do i search for it in the synap? | 06:49 |
| fire_ | is it Ctrl+Alt+Backspace that restarts graphics or something? | 06:49 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: yes. it is a package | 06:50 |
| jbuncher | reflous, ah ok. Well, glad it helped! It took me *forever* to figure out why the mathematica 6 fonts in some places were ridiculously pixelated. Apparently the choice of bitstream was hard-coded in somewhere, without a font substitution if it couldnt find them. Had to stumble upon that one by accident and set up the right font substitution so things were sane. | 06:50 |
| Bragex9 | Fire, was it the post of adder1972 you used to get it work? | 06:50 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: so you look for it in a package manager. | 06:50 |
| rafiq | a black shadow is blocking my screen,anyone one know how to fix it? | 06:50 |
| node357 | fire_, you have to activate that key combination in the keyboard layout settings. | 06:50 |
| lstarnes | fire_: that restarts the display service | 06:50 |
| fire_ | yes, Bragex9 :) | 06:50 |
| wooly | node357 so back to my other question...any other places where I can get support? I tried the ecryptfs irc but the server was down | 06:50 |
| fire_ | node357: thanks I'll do that now. | 06:50 |
| lstarnes | raik: what is the ethernet cable connected to? | 06:50 |
| reflous | jbuncher, haha that is some bad coding | 06:50 |
| truzzi | there is any specific distribution for notebooks? or the 9.10 will work fine? | 06:50 |
| jeffhmb | fire_, that doesn't work in ubuntu by default. You have to enable that somewhere. You should be able to find it on google. | 06:50 |
| lstarnes | wooly: there's also ##linux on this network | 06:50 |
| jbuncher | zedster, ah ok. I just have the ICH7 family hda intel audio. | 06:50 |
| wooly | thanks | 06:51 |
| jbuncher | reflous, that's Wolfram for ya. | 06:51 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, do i have to change sources first? | 06:51 |
| node357 | Only really busy forum I know for general GNU/Linux questions is linuxquestions.org :/ | 06:51 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: no | 06:51 |
| raik | it is connected to small device just like spliiter where the ethernet cable from the rooftop device is also connected. and the device is powered by an adapter lstarnes | 06:51 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: you might need the multiverse repo | 06:51 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, sorry i still don't understand. What is a repo? | 06:52 |
| node357 | I'm no help. But I'm good at asking for help. Anyone know how to enable line-in on the SB X-Fi card? | 06:52 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: repository | 06:52 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: software source | 06:52 |
| rafiq | a black shadow is blocking my screen,leaving me to forcequit,anyone one know how to fix it? | 06:52 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, is it under ubuntu software centre? | 06:52 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: I don't know. maybe | 06:52 |
| rafiq | a black shadow is blocking my screen,leaving me to forcequit,anyone one know how to fix it? | 06:52 |
| Concretesledge | how can i rip a dvd | 06:53 |
| Concretesledge | down to a cd | 06:53 |
| huangguoji | helo | 06:53 |
| Madpilot | is Launchpad timing out for anyone else, or does it just hate me tonight? | 06:53 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: I usually do it the old way (system > administration > software sources or /etc/apt/sources.list) | 06:53 |
| rafiq | a black shadow is blocking my screen,leaving me to forcequit,anyone one know how to fix it? | 06:53 |
| jeffhmb | rafiq, turn off the bright light behind your head? | 06:53 |
| node357 | Madpilot, I find it slow, but it does respond here. | 06:53 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, ok thanks, that was helpful | 06:53 |
| jeffhmb | rafiq, just kidding, what do you mean? | 06:53 |
| Yaya_ | Whats up guys | 06:53 |
| Random832 | in karmic my setting for touchpad clicks being disabled isn't preserved from jaunty | 06:53 |
| Random832 | >_< | 06:53 |
| fire_ | thanks for that. :) | 06:53 |
| Madpilot | node357, lucky you, trying to file a bug and it's timed out six or eight times on me | 06:53 |
| Infinitas | Switching from kde to gnome today, woot. :) | 06:54 |
| lstarnes | raik: were you using another version of ubuntu before? | 06:54 |
| node357 | Ugh Madpilot, that sucks. | 06:54 |
| DaveyAM | 3d cube effect for my desktop? where i need to go? what url ? :) | 06:54 |
| Yaya_ | Can anyone help me out | 06:54 |
| Random832 | (i only had to go in and change again, but what else am i going to have to configure again? that's a user setting, how'd my profile get changed?) | 06:54 |
| Psinetic | I need some help. I'm on Ubuntu 9.04, i need to make a fresh install, but i can't burn the live cd b/c i only have one cd drive. Now I've got my windows laptop networked to my desktop directly (it doesn't have internet capability), i can rdesktop to it. i need to transfer this .iso image for the 9.10 ubuntu over to the desktop of my windows computer. can anyone help me with this please? | 06:54 |
| Madpilot | node357, can't even get thru to LP to file a bug against LP :) | 06:54 |
| lstarnes | DaveyAM: it comes with the plugin package for compiz | 06:54 |
| judibeefl | what is in the restricted extras? | 06:54 |
| jbuncher | DaveyAM, install the compizconfig-settings-manager, play around in there. | 06:54 |
| Yaya_ | Can anyone help me out :(? | 06:54 |
| raik | yes i was using 9.04 and net was running fine with the same settings and steps. lstarnes | 06:54 |
| lstarnes | DaveyAM: if you have visual effects enabled, you can use it | 06:54 |
| node357 | haha Madpilot | 06:54 |
| jbuncher | !ask | Yaya_ | 06:54 |
| ubottu | Yaya_: 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. :-) | 06:54 |
| DaveyAM | compiz? i have full visual effects enabled | 06:54 |
| Yaya_ | Ok | 06:55 |
| lstarnes | raik: it could be a driver issue | 06:55 |
| rafiq | oh imean,bowser complains its because of newly opened site,jus some shadow kind of thing cover window and nothin can be done except forcequit | 06:55 |
| DaveyAM | but i havent that effect :S | 06:55 |
| jeffhmb | Psinetic, why can't you burn the CD from your ubuntu box? | 06:55 |
| lstarnes | raik: see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1307107 | 06:55 |
| Yaya_ | Im trying to install 9.10 from the ISO file, any idea how i can run the installer? I already have the iso mounted | 06:55 |
| jbuncher | DaveyAM, that's why I said to install the settings-manager, so that you can go in and really tweak things, such as turning on the cube | 06:55 |
| lstarnes | Yaya_: is it the alternate iso? | 06:55 |
| raik | ok lstarnes | 06:55 |
| fire_ | does anyoe know if 9.10 has a wallpaper slideshow feature? | 06:55 |
| Psinetic | jeffhmb: because i have to use the live cd from my box.... | 06:56 |
| Yaya_ | No, I'm running 8.04 and the update servers are running very slow | 06:56 |
| sohrab | hi all | 06:56 |
| rafiq | jeffhmb: are u getting me? | 06:56 |
| sohrab | i have a problem | 06:56 |
| node357 | Could someone please answer me? How do I enable line-in on a SB X-Fi sound card? | 06:56 |
| sohrab | ? | 06:56 |
| Yaya_ | Its the standard i386 | 06:56 |
| raik | lstarnes that thread is created by me | 06:56 |
| DaveyAM | where i can get the compizconfig-settings-manager? | 06:56 |
| lstarnes | Yaya_: you should probably burn it onto a disc and boot from it | 06:56 |
| sohrab | hos know how could i work with smbfs ? | 06:56 |
| jeffhmb | rafiq, sorry no. I didn't see any other messages from you until this one. | 06:56 |
| zhaozhou | Yaya_: How are you trying to install this? Which installer do you want to start? | 06:56 |
| PatrickStarfish | fire_ : I don't see one, except it does include a space pictures slideshow, don't know if you can change the pics | 06:56 |
| lstarnes | DaveyAM: look in the package manager | 06:57 |
| jeffhmb | Psinetic, did you dowloand the 9.10 iso to your 9.04 box? | 06:57 |
| bazhang | DaveyAM, from synaptic package manager | 06:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 06:57 |
| jbuncher | DaveyAM, should just be in the repositories, though it might be in universe. | 06:57 |
| Yaya_ | I'm trying to start the installer from the ISO image | 06:57 |
| lstarnes | DaveyAM: it may already be somewhere in the appearence settings | 06:57 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: is there no way for me to get access? i'm on DL atm | 06:57 |
| lstarnes | Yaya_: that isn't supported afaik | 06:57 |
| lstarnes | poyntz: DL? | 06:57 |
| zhaozhou | Yaya_: The "install ubuntu"-one? | 06:57 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: DreamLinux | 06:57 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: I'm dual booting | 06:57 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: both my xservers are screwed | 06:58 |
| Psinetic | jeffhmb: if you had noticed before, i can't boot to my box and am currently in live cd of 9.04. i can't burn it on here because i'm using the only cd drive i have. so i need to use my laptop, which is networked directly to my box. | 06:58 |
| node357 | Yaya_, the only thing that will work if you just mount the image is Wubi. | 06:58 |
| sohrab | i need to active smbfs | 06:58 |
| judibeefl | can anyone tell me what is the restricted package? | 06:58 |
| Yaya_ | yea, buts a .exe | 06:58 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: the only difference is that I can actually do things on the DL console... karmic is really tossed up (so I can't run apps) | 06:58 |
| lstarnes | !ubuntu-restricted-extras | judibeefl | 06:58 |
| ubottu | judibeefl: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 06:58 |
| zhaozhou | Yaya_: Short answer; you can't. | 06:58 |
| DaveyAM | i find compizconfig-settings-manager in synaptic but crap >.< i have the same error... | 06:58 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: not to mention I cant use sudo | 06:58 |
| Yaya_ | I;m trying to pull off a fresh install from the ISO image | 06:59 |
| jeffhmb | Psinetic, oh yes, the grub, grub2, etc. discussion. Yes, I didn't follow all of that. | 06:59 |
| kankro | Hello | 06:59 |
| jbuncher | DaveyAM, what error? | 06:59 |
| Psinetic | jeffhmb: it's ok | 06:59 |
| zhaozhou | Yaya_: Then you'd have to actually boot the ISO. | 06:59 |
| lstarnes | poyntz: for ubuntu, edit its command line when booting so that it has the root=blah part followed by ro single | 06:59 |
| DaveyAM | i cant download anything because synaptic try to connect with proxy | 06:59 |
| === kankro is now known as K4nkr0 | ||
| DaveyAM | i did use a proxy today but not now.. | 06:59 |
| jeffhmb | Psinetic, so you just want to get the 9.10 iso from the 9.04 box to the windows lappy. right? | 06:59 |
| San234 | hey guyz! plzzz help! me! i want to install a software named ipmsg for LAN i download tar.gz file its a zip like file now wat to do to instal? in ubuntu | 06:59 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: without sudo I can't apt-get update && agupgrade my way out out of anything :/ | 06:59 |
| Yaya_ | So it can't be done unless i burn the image? | 06:59 |
| San234 | hey guyz! plzzz help! me! i want to install a software named ipmsg for LAN i download tar.gz file its a zip like file now wat to do to instal? in ubuntu | 06:59 |
| node357 | judibeefl, as far as I can tell, restricted-extras are software that are proprietary or could have patent issues. | 06:59 |
| DaveyAM | and synaptic send me error... | 06:59 |
| sohrab | i need to install smbfs autofs | 06:59 |
| K4nkr0 | .. | 06:59 |
| jbuncher | DaveyAM, Ah, yeah. no idea. | 06:59 |
| sohrab | whos working | 07:00 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: i'll give it a shot | 07:00 |
| lstarnes | poyntz: if you can do what I just described, it should get you into ubuntu's recovery console | 07:00 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: menu.lst yeah? | 07:00 |
| node357 | Attempting to repress mounting frusration. | 07:00 |
| [V]ortex` | does 9.10 support ubuntu-restricted-extras? i can't find it in my synp repo (multiverse) | 07:00 |
| judibeefl | node TY | 07:00 |
| DaveyAM | iam using pidgin and firefox without problem because i disable the proxy | 07:00 |
| lstarnes | poyntz: yes | 07:00 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: yes | 07:00 |
| node357 | np judibeefl | 07:00 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, i still can't find it =( | 07:00 |
| Yaya_ | Ok...then a second thought...is there a thrid party update server i can use? | 07:00 |
| lstarnes | poyntz: from there, you can add yourself back to the group with sudo gpasswd -a USER admin | 07:00 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, can you kindly point the way? | 07:00 |
| jeffhmb | San234, go to a terminal window or console, and type "tar -xzvf file.tar.gz" | 07:00 |
| DaveyAM | iam using direct dhcp but synaptic try to connect to proxy :( | 07:00 |
| Infinitas | Excuse me, can anyone tell me the best packages for audio/video codecs on ubuntu and which package manager to get them from? | 07:00 |
| Sagaci | where's the equivalent of /boot/grub/menu.lst in ubuntu 9.10 | 07:00 |
| shahdharmit | I ran the livecd of Karmic. I use Fedora 11 and ran "sudo os-prober" but it didn't detect Fedora. I need to run Fedora too. What shall I do? | 07:00 |
| DaveyAM | what i need to do guys? | 07:01 |
| node357 | I'm trying to enable line-in on SB X-Fi sound card, but it doesn't work in GNOME mixer or alasmixer. | 07:01 |
| Psinetic | jeffhmb: yes, i think i can get it manually thought just by putting it on a thumb drive, so give me a sec | 07:01 |
| judibeefl | Vortex i have it in my Synapse Package Manager | 07:01 |
| DaveyAM | how i can tell to synaptic "hey iam not using proxy now..!" | 07:01 |
| [V]ortex` | judibeefl, how do i do that? | 07:01 |
| aah | 'lo all. I've got Xvnc running on a machine w/ multiple monitors; the monitors give me a desktop of.. umm.. 3248x1200. No matter what options I give vncserver at start up (e.g., -geometry 1024x768), the size is ignored and I get my :0 size. Any thoughts? | 07:01 |
| jbuncher | Psinetic, if you can boot from a livecd and then chroot into the box that doesn't like to boot, maybe you could just install grub over grub2? | 07:01 |
| jeffhmb | Psinetic, not a bad idea. For moving a file over the network, it's pretty easy to enable file sharing on the windows box, and then connect to that share from the linux box. | 07:01 |
| erkerk3 | for some reason it gnome explodes when i enable root and log in as it | 07:01 |
| erkerk3 | how do i fix this | 07:02 |
| node357 | Does anyone even care that I can't get this working? | 07:02 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: try opening a terminal and running sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 07:02 |
| Ford | San234, extract the tar file using tar -xzvf file.tar.gz and navigate to it at the terminal. look for a read me file which might have instructions on how to install | 07:02 |
| Yaya_ | Is there a way to update from a 3rd party server? | 07:02 |
| lstarnes | erkerk3: you should never do a graphical login as root | 07:02 |
| Animagladius | Night | 07:02 |
| lockd | this is rather annoying... I have a program which needs a threaded LibXML, and ubuntu doesn't supply that | 07:02 |
| jbuncher | erkerk3, in all seriousness, don't log in as root. | 07:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | jeffhmb: unfortunately at this point, its VERY unlikely grub is his only problem, he's gonna have to reinstall most likely anyways | 07:02 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) | 07:02 |
| [V]ortex` | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 07:02 |
| judibeefl | Vortex System-->Administration--->Synaptic Package Manager | 07:02 |
| maxjizzy | aah, are you using nivida? | 07:02 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: close all other package management applications | 07:03 |
| [V]ortex` | judibeefl, i searched but nothing comes up | 07:03 |
| aah | maxjizzy: ruh roh, yes. | 07:03 |
| trgbeck | ok I seen a flaw in Karmic it is in the mouse orientation to switch right to left handed doesnt work | 07:03 |
| erkerk3 | :/ | 07:03 |
| Yaya_ | Anyone know if there is a way to update from a 3rd party server since the main update servers are so slow? | 07:03 |
| jeffhmb | IndyGunFreak, OK. | 07:03 |

| lstarnes | poyntz: it does exist, right? | 07:03 |
| jbuncher | Yaya_, there should be a little app in the "software sources" program to find a close mirror. | 07:03 |
| [V]ortex` | judibeefl, nope nothing | 07:03 |
| maxjizzy | you must save the settings manually i think | 07:03 |
| [V]ortex` | oops sorry for flooding | 07:03 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: did you enable the multiverse and restricted repos? | 07:03 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: well that's what i've been mounting it from in the past | 07:03 |
| maxjizzy | aah, i'll try to find the link for that | 07:04 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: unless the system oddly changed the name on the last boot | 07:04 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, multiverse yes, is restricted repos the same? | 07:04 |
| Yaya_ | ok coo, i'll give that a try | 07:04 |
| lstarnes | poyntz: that could happen | 07:04 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: no | 07:04 |
| judibeefl | Are you on 9.04 or 9.10 Vortex? | 07:04 |
| aah | maxjizzy: thank you. googling too, nothing obvious (what am I looking for?) | 07:04 |
| node357 | Why is everybody ignoring me? | 07:04 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: they're different repos, but more or less do the same thing | 07:04 |
| arussel | how can I list broken package on my machine ? | 07:04 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: I also tried sudo fdisk -l which doesn't seem to work on DL.. :/ | 07:04 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, i'll go look | 07:04 |
| lstarnes | node357: we might nopt have an ansert for your question | 07:04 |
| lstarnes | node357: er, we might not have an answer | 07:05 |
| node357 | Thanks. That's better than not getting a response at all.. kinda lol | 07:05 |
| obiwan_ | hey guys, do you think tux disguiste is too freaky/geek for halloween? hehe | 07:05 |
| lstarnes | node357: but I can assure you that people here have at lease seen it | 07:05 |
| judibeefl | lol lstarnes | 07:05 |
| lstarnes | *least | 07:05 |

| judibeefl | WB Wooly | 07:05 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, Fire, It is not working in my system. Maybe I am doing something wrong. I am completely new to ubuntu and have no experience with this. I get several error messages after startx: Error api mismatch error: failed to initialize the nvidia kernel module. Please ensure that there is a supported nvidia gpu in this system and that the nvidia device files have been created properly | 07:05 |
| fire_ | can I get flurry back in 9.10? :( | 07:06 |
| jeffhmb | You know what rocks? Network block device. I used to mount debian CDs from an old 200 MHz Pentium laptop that didn't have a CDROM drive, by mounting the CD on my server and then exporting that as a NBD. | 07:06 |
| wooly | lol i've not even got started yet | 07:06 |
| node357 | ugh | 07:06 |
| wooly | yea | 07:06 |
| maxjizzy | aah, sudo nvidia-settings | 07:06 |
| maxjizzy | you have to do it with the sudo | 07:06 |
| wooly | ic ant really find any kind of useful documentation that would help me begin to know how to mount/decrypt | 07:06 |
| maxjizzy | to get it save | 07:06 |
| node357 | enzyme, thanks. I might try that, or the driver from creative labs. I just hope it doesn't conflict with the alsa driver... was hoping Ubuntu would "just work" for once, but I guess not. | 07:06 |
| aah | maxjizzy: from within the vnc session? | 07:06 |
| p-f | anyone else getting a bunch of python errors when trying to do pretty much anything in gpodder on karmic? | 07:06 |
| node357 | Windows and Linux making me hate computers. | 07:07 |
| p-f | the program is practically unusable | 07:07 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, did you try 'dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-185-kernel-source' | 07:07 |
| lstarnes | wooly: you still have your username/passphrase, right? | 07:07 |
| p-f | I'm surprised a gui shows up at all | 07:07 |
| jbuncher | node357, x-fi's have had a lot of problems with linux, iirc | 07:07 |
| erkerk3 | didn't they open source its driverfs? | 07:07 |
| enzyme | node357: Don't blame the OS; blame Creative. | 07:07 |
| wooly | lstarnes i know the password I used and I kept the /var/lib/ecryptfs if that's what you mean | 07:07 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, no. did not try that | 07:07 |
| node357 | jbuncher, i know.. but the alsa driver included in recent kernels worked fine for me on other distros... | 07:07 |
| node357 | enzyme, i only have a problem with this card on Ubuntu Karmic. | 07:08 |
| Ford | node357, I always tell people that they should not hate or blame computers if the are unable to do something rather they should seek to know how to do it | 07:08 |
| node357 | Ford, I'm too old to learn C/C++ and Python :( | 07:08 |
| jbuncher | node357, wonder if it's a pulse bug then, or if other distros weren't using the 31 kernel and something happened from pre31 to 31 | 07:09 |
| judibeefl | node i am 49 and want to learn those | 07:09 |
| raik | http://www.worldlink.com.np/wireless/wizooome_surfwell_premium/index.php this is the my connection lstarnes | 07:09 |
| lstarnes | wooly: I think you can specify the path to the key file in the mount options | 07:09 |
| node357 | maybe jbuncher... and I'd like to help, but I'm not well and having a usable system is most important to me right now. | 07:09 |
| maxjizzy | aah i'm not really sure, it was long time i did work that shit out. | 07:09 |
| Ford | node357, great scientists like Albert Einstein discovered most stuff at old age! :) | 07:10 |
| node357 | well judibeefl maybe too old is kind of narrow minded of me to say | 07:10 |
| KushedVapors | sooo wat does the deluge daemon do? | 07:10 |
| aah | maxjizzy: heh. no prob. thanks for the pointer, I'll play around. | 07:10 |
| node357 | lol yeah Ford | 07:10 |
| maxjizzy | i'm totally stoned | 07:10 |
| [V]ortex` | do i have to restart after package installation? | 07:10 |
| wooly | lstarnes so should I just put /var/lib/ecryptfs back where it was then specify there when mounting? | 07:10 |
| metaphlex | will HTML5 replace flash games? | 07:10 |
| node357 | I'm just not sure I want to spend a few years learning how to code hardware drivers before I can use my computer. | 07:10 |
| p-f | Ford, uhm, didn't Einstein fizzled out after his 30s? | 07:10 |
| jbuncher | node357, use what works then, nothing wrong with that | 07:10 |
| p-f | -d | 07:10 |
| lstarnes | wooly: try mount -t ecryptfs /dev/HD /mnt -o keyfile=PATH/TO/KEY | 07:10 |
| Boohbah | KushedVapors: seeds/downloads torrents in the background | 07:10 |
| Ford | p-f, that is old, according to me :) | 07:11 |

| ^Einstein | lies, I'm perfectly healthy! now, back on-topic. :) | 07:11 |
| judibeefl | node you can do anything your heart and mind will you to do | 07:11 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, I tried dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-185-kernel-source, and it answered with "need an action option" | 07:11 |
| node357 | :) | 07:11 |
| Boohbah | jussi01: what about maxjizzy's language was not family friendly? | 07:11 |
| maxjizzy | srry | 07:11 |
| Ford | [V]ortex`, not a must, buy you can if it does not take effect | 07:11 |
| maxjizzy | i'm 420 friendly but the world is not. | 07:11 |
| digdug | I've been using the 9.10 beta the last couple weeks, and updated about 3 days ago; when I checked for updates today, there was no partial upgrade to install, just roughly 6 or 7 packages to update, am I running the release or am I still running the beta? | 07:11 |
| poyntz | lstarnes: i'll try to reboot. thanks in the meantime! | 07:11 |
| Sagaci | how do you edit grub in ubuntu 9.10?? | 07:11 |
| node357 | hah, Einstein. | 07:11 |
| voraistos | 9.10 finally fixes the intel driver, it looks absolutely fantastic! Todo next: gain back win3.1 functionality such as settings for the screensavers. | 07:11 |
| KushedVapors | Boohbah, so it consumes less cpu than puttin it in the taskbar? | 07:11 |
| lstarnes | wooly: replace the all-caps parts with the right values (HD = hard disk device, PATH/TO/KEY = full location of key file) | 07:12 |
| K4nkr0 | . | 07:12 |
| jbuncher | digdug, you're running the final | 07:12 |
| node357 | maxjizzy, not everyone smokes green :P | 07:12 |
| bazhang | digdug, the final | 07:12 |
| maxjizzy | i'm totally slow in my head | 07:12 |
| wooly | lstarnes gonna try brb | 07:12 |
| DaveyAM | guys i need help with synaptic... :( | 07:12 |
| [V]ortex` | what other packages should i install - other than restricted extras? | 07:12 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, did you run it under sudo? | 07:12 |
| maxjizzy | must have been something i eat | 07:12 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: it depends on what you need | 07:12 |
| drygr | i have a question that isnt specifically about ubuntu, but it relates to the file system... | 07:12 |
| jbuncher | [V]ortex`, depends on what you want to do | 07:12 |
| enzyme | DaveyAM: Try sudo apt-get update to see if you get a problem still. | 07:12 |
| DaveyAM | how i can reconfigure the synaptic connection settings in console? | 07:12 |
| judibeefl | i had 13 Friday and 41 after the init install Thursday | 07:13 |
| broken_puppy | Anyone know of a good source for recovering files deleted from ext3? | 07:13 |
| Sagaci | !grub | 07:13 |
| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 07:13 |
| maxjizzy | please, anyone with a mobile connection? | 07:13 |
| lstarnes | drygr: go ahead and ask | 07:13 |
| Sagaci | !grub2 | 07:13 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 07:13 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, jbuncher, for normal purposes? like surfing net, simple office apps etc? | 07:13 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, I will try again. I think I misstyped. Is it dpkg-reconfigure or dpkg reconfigure? | 07:13 |
| drygr | i have a USB drive that is on an ms-dos filesystem, how do i format it to a unix filesystem? | 07:13 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: firefox and openoffice are installed by default, I think | 07:13 |
| Ford | broken_puppy, look for a tool known as ext3grep. It works if you are patient enough | 07:13 |
| bazhang | drygr, gparted | 07:14 |
| DaveyAM | error | 07:14 |
| Madpilot | drygr, you probably don't want or need to. fat32 is understood everywhere | 07:14 |
| lstarnes | drygr: it depends on which unix fs you want. ext2/ext3 is very widely supported | 07:14 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, "sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-185-kernel-source" | 07:14 |
| broken_puppy | Ford, Thanks! | 07:14 |
| DaveyAM | its try to connect to proxy | 07:14 |

| DaveyAM | but iam not using proxy now! :( | 07:14 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, ok | 07:14 |
| lstarnes | drygr: you can use mkfs.ext2 or mkfs.ext3 | 07:14 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, waht about a firewall ap? | 07:14 |
| drygr | whats the difference | 07:14 |
| Boohbah | KushedVapors: no, it enables you to connect to it with different interfaces, e.g. GUI or text-mode | 07:14 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: iptables and ufw are installed by default | 07:14 |
| node357 | DaveyAM, I'm gonna boot into my Wubi-fied Ubuntu and take a look at Synaptic, maybe I can help you figure it out. | 07:14 |
| Boohbah | KushedVapors: kind of like mpd | 07:14 |
| lstarnes | drygr: ext3 has journaling | 07:14 |
| slurp | hi | 07:15 |

| DaveyAM | i try sudo apt-get update but its try to connect with proxy enabled... :( | 07:15 |
| Appiah | my network (wlan and wired) does not work in Karmic, upgrade, fresh install and live CD is the same , its beacuse of the kernel, I tried a older kernel but here my sound dont work. | 07:15 |

| eagles0513875 | !patience | Deathvalley122 | 07:15 |
| ubottu | Deathvalley122: 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. | 07:15 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: they have graphical frontends such as firestarter and gufw | 07:15 |
| KushedVapors | Boohbah, never really used MPD, dont like to load and nload files constantly but thnx 4 the info | 07:15 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, ok which would you reccommend? firestarter or gufw? | 07:16 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: I don't use either | 07:16 |
| jbuncher | [V]ortex`, well, you've got firefox for browsing, openoffice for word processing / spreadsheets / presentations, gimp for raster editing. I usually install thunderbird as my mail client, pidgin for instant messaging (I like it better than Empathy), inkscape for vector graphics, latex and kile for technical documents, gThumb as a quick image editor, and some other things as well. | 07:16 |
| Boohbah | KushedVapors: http://www.chnorton.com.au/2007/09/30/deluge-web-interface/ | 07:16 |
| maxjizzy | vortex, firestarter is nice | 07:16 |
| Balsaq | if i am happily hooked up with 9.04, is it nuts to take 910? do irisk losing my ability to watch online vids...or risk losing sound? | 07:16 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, ok you don't have firewall? | 07:16 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: I do | 07:16 |
| [V]ortex` | jbuncher, ok thanks a lot! can you reccommenda firewall? | 07:16 |
| jbuncher | [V]ortex`, sorry, not that well versed in the firewall stuff. | 07:17 |

| DaveyAM | node357 some idea? | 07:17 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, it says that /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: nvidia-185-kernel-source is not installed | 07:17 |
| voraistos | don't most people have hardware firewalls nowadays ? | 07:17 |
| judibeefl | Death post an abbreviated message you posted here | 07:17 |
| lstarnes | [V]ortex`: I usually manually configure things using iptables. I'm behind a firewalled router so I don't need to do as much configuration of the software | 07:18 |
| eagles0513875 | anyone able to help my friend Deathvalley122 with his issue as i have tried and have no idea how to fix it | 07:18 |
| zhaozhou | eagles0513875: what seems to be the problem, sir? | 07:18 |
| judibeefl | Eagle state the issue again please? | 07:18 |
| [V]ortex` | lstarnes, i see.. so since i'm behind a router, i can just leave it right? | 07:18 |
| Ford | eagles0513875, tell him to post it hear | 07:18 |

| node357 | DaveyAM, I checked Synaptic. Go to settings -> Preferences, then Network, then select Direct Connection | 07:20 |

| jeffhmb | Bragex9, 1) what does "dpkg -l |grep nvidia |grep kernel-source" say? | 07:21 |
| enzyme | node357: You can have support for the X-Fi card (I have the same card and using it now for recording) with OSSv4.1 | 07:21 |
| DaveyAM | i did that.. | 07:21 |
| eagles0513875 | zhaozhou: or Ford are either of you guys able to help him :( | 07:21 |
| DaveyAM | and nothings happend | 07:21 |
| zhaozhou | eagles0513875: when does this happen? | 07:21 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, answer that and then I'll get back to telling you the two choices.... | 07:21 |
| voraistos | DeathValley122: I think this is a kernel issue, I'm not too sure why, probably just a minor bug. What is really strange is that you can mount it and unmount it manually. NOTE: Back in the old days, we had mount and unmount a CD before to be able to eject it. Otherwise you'll have to use root in CLI to eject it. | 07:21 |
| DaveyAM | its try to connect to proxy | 07:21 |
| roffe_ | in windows I had a scroll-function with the middle button on my mouse. How do I get it in Ubuntu? | 07:22 |
| eagles0513875 | zhaozhou: ask him he is in here his name is Deathvalley122 | 07:22 |
| zhaozhou | so, Deathvalley122, when does this happen? | 07:22 |
| madman1 | roffe_: you mean the scroll wheel, or an actual button | 07:22 |
| Deathvalley122 | yes voraistos but I did a fresh install and I am still getting the problem | 07:22 |
| judibeefl | Eagle it sounds like a driver issue, check with SONY and Ubuntu for driver updates | 07:22 |
| DaveyAM | i dont know why because iam using direct dhcp for all my settings.. :( | 07:22 |
| eagles0513875 | judibeefl: ping Deathvalley122 with the info as he is in here | 07:22 |
| DaveyAM | and now i cant download anything.. | 07:23 |
| slurp | help please | 07:23 |
| node357 | okay enzyme, I will try it.. I just wish I could rely on apt to keep things updated instead of having to compile every time the kernel is updated | 07:23 |
| Deathvalley122 | zhaozhou: this happens when I put in a cd then eject it | 07:23 |
| zhaozhou | !ask | slurp | 07:23 |
| ubottu | slurp: 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. :-) | 07:23 |
| Ford | Deathvalley122, it may probably be a kernel issue, try to recompile it | 07:23 |
| slurp | ok | 07:23 |
| roffe_ | madman1, I mean the scroll wheel, when you press it like a button it gave a scroll-function | 07:23 |
| zhaozhou | Deathvalley122: ahh. | 07:23 |
| node357 | Maybe it's a bug DaveyAM, and if it is I'm really sorry. | 07:23 |
| voraistos | ok, just encountered a bug in ff | 07:23 |
| DaveyAM | what i can do? | 07:23 |
| eagles0513875 | Deathvalley122: ask in ubuntu-kernel they might be fixing it for the next minor patch update | 07:23 |
| Deathvalley122 | how can I recompile a kernel? | 07:23 |

| slurp | the model is http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=WLG-1101 | 07:24 |
| node357 | DaveyAM, I'll look. | 07:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | slurp: whats the chipset on the card? | 07:24 |
| pvn | is there any one knows about supervisor client/server system that allows its users to monitor and control a number of processes on UNIX-like operating systems. | 07:24 |
| DaveyAM | i dont know :S | 07:24 |
| madman1 | roffe_: ok i see what you mean now, have you found anything under system, prefrences, mouse? | 07:24 |
| Deathvalley122 | it ejects it then it floods me with log errors zhaozhou | 07:24 |
| madman1 | im on a laptop and have no scroll wheel | 07:24 |
| enzyme | node357: check out the ubuntu forums. There's a post on how to convert to OSSv4.1 and disable Pulseaudio and ALSA. OSSv4.1 is the repositories so you don't have to compile anything. | 07:24 |
| slurp | IndyGunFreak i don't know the chipset | 07:24 |
| pvn | supervisor client/server system that allows its users to monitor and control a number of processes on UNIX-like operating systems. | 07:25 |
| zhaozhou | Deathvalley122: Is the device still 'mount'ed when you eject it? | 07:25 |
| node357 | Oh great enzyme, thanks! | 07:25 |
| socks4anon | is OSS 4.1 better? | 07:25 |
| bazhang | slurp, check it with lspci in the terminal | 07:25 |
| slurp | ok | 07:25 |
| [V]ortex` | how do i get rhythmbox to auto detect songs on other drives so that i don't have to keep loading them at startup? | 07:25 |

| jgornick | Can anyone make some recommendations for a good web cam with mic for Ubuntu/Skype? | 07:25 |
| Boohbah | socks4anon: | 07:25 |
| node357 | sorry DaveyAM .. I don't see any setting for proxy in any of the apt configuration files :( | 07:25 |
| zedster | I get no audio, zip nada. If i do aplay I get no sound card found | 07:26 |
| Deathvalley122 | no I have mount it zhaozhou | 07:26 |
| IndyGunFreak | bazhang: will a pccard show up in lspci? | 07:26 |
| Boohbah | socks4anon: http://insanecoding.blogspot.com/2009/06/state-of-sound-in-linux-not-so-sorry.html | 07:26 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, it's the "pipe" symbol -- a vertical bar. | 07:26 |
| Deathvalley122 | to** | 07:26 |
| wooly | lstarnes: i'm not quite sure I know which file is the key file. I tried using unwrapped-passphrase and Private.sig, both of which were in the /var/lib/ecryptfs directory. Both return the error [-20] Not a directory | 07:26 |
| slurp | http://paste.ubuntu.com/305694/ | 07:26 |
| roffe_ | madman1, i didn't find anything of interest in there | 07:26 |
| zhaozhou | Deathvalley122: if you umount sr0 then eject it, do you get the errors? | 07:26 |
| bazhang | IndyGunFreak, a pci card? thought that is what he said | 07:26 |
| slurp | i paste the response | 07:26 |
| Boohbah | enzyme: also, have you read this? http://insanecoding.blogspot.com/2009/06/state-of-sound-in-linux-not-so-sorry.html | 07:26 |
| DaveyAM | soo where synaptic save configs ? :( | 07:26 |
| Deathvalley122 | no | 07:26 |
| bazhang | slurp, looking now | 07:26 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, don't worry about it. Just try "dpkg -l nvidia-*" in the terminal and visually look for the kernel-source package. | 07:26 |
| enzyme | socks4anon: OSSv4.1 does have advantages. For me, the quality of sound is much better on my system. By default I can adjust the volumn on different programs without the need for something like pulseaudio. | 07:26 |
| lstarnes | wooly: what full command are you trying? | 07:26 |
| maxjizzy | jgornick, microsoft webcam maby? it works out for me.. | 07:26 |
| slurp | bazhang do you see it? | 07:26 |
| Deathvalley122 | only happens when it's mounted | 07:26 |
| voraistos | Deathvalley122 then I guess its a gnomeVFS bug | 07:26 |
| enzyme | Boohbah: Yes, I have. Interesting read. | 07:27 |
| slurp | thank bazhang | 07:27 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, ok | 07:27 |
| node357 | Gah, searching for OSS or OpenSound in Synaptic didn't help too much. | 07:27 |
| zhaozhou | Deathvalley122: so, when you eject it via the button, is it still mounted? | 07:27 |
| voraistos | Deathvalley, tried updating gnom-vfs or something ? | 07:27 |
| DaveyAM | because iam not using proxy settings now.. T_T how i can reconfigure that in console? :( | 07:27 |
| Boohbah | enzyme: good to hear OSSv4 is in ubuntu repo's. i may have to try it out | 07:27 |
| madman1 | roffe_: sorry if i was on my desktop machine i could help you better | 07:27 |
| socks4anon | plus you dont get that where certain games dont play audio and virtualbox sux and mic's dont work through flash? | 07:27 |
| lstarnes | DaveyAM: it might be in /etc/apt somewhere | 07:27 |
| socks4anon | some of the issues with pulseaudio drive me nuts | 07:27 |
| GJLenon | Evening | 07:27 |
| Deathvalley122 | no it get unmounted but I have mounted it when I put in a cd | 07:27 |
| zhaozhou | evening. :) | 07:27 |
| DaveyAM | how i can configure the network settings for all system in console? | 07:28 |
| socks4anon | <Boohbah> thnx for the link | 07:28 |
| zhaozhou | Deathvalley122: i'm not following. | 07:28 |
| obiwan_ | 2 | 07:28 |
| Deathvalley122 | okay | 07:28 |
| obiwan_ | ups xd | 07:28 |
| voraistos | zhaozhou: ejecting via the button when still mounted should normally fail, unless something like gnome-vfs is running | 07:28 |
| wooly | lstarnes: well i couldnt figure out how to mount the usb key where I backed up /var/lib ecryptfs to so I rebooted in the livecd which also couldnt see the home directory then mount -t ecryptfs /dev/sda6 /mnt/home -o KEYFILE=/media/disk/ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase | 07:28 |
| DaveyAM | because i configure it in graphic mode but not work for synaptic :S | 07:28 |
| Xcell | my new screensaver: http://abstract.desktopnexus.com/get/64687 | 07:28 |
| GJLenon | I'm having an issue, was hoping for advice. :) I'm running 9.04 64 bit, and want to upgrade. All my buddies run 32-bit and swear that it's superior. Are they wrong? | 07:28 |
| Deathvalley122 | it gets unmounted ejected but when I put in a disc it won't mount it so I have to mount it | 07:28 |
| zhaozhou | voraistos: no idea what gnome-vfs is, but yes, it should fail. I'm thinking it ejects anyway, and tries to read the cd when it isn't there | 07:28 |
| obiwan_ | 1 | 07:28 |
| Deathvalley122 | when*** | 07:29 |
| lstarnes | wooly: keyfile should be lowercase, I think | 07:29 |
| wooly | lstarnes then it prompts for passphrase, asks what kind of encryption (aes, etc), 16 bit, 32, etc then a bunch of others and I Just select the default and get -20 error | 07:29 |
| obiwan_ | sry :( | 07:29 |
| node357 | Um, purging pulseaudio removes ubuntu-desktop. | 07:29 |
| Deathvalley122 | sorry bad grammar | 07:29 |
| wooly | lstarnes oh lol you told me KEYFILE ;) | 07:29 |
| wooly | brb | 07:29 |
| lstarnes | wooly: what other files do you have? | 07:29 |
| lonejack | I'm thinking to upgrade 9.04 to 9.10. I would like to see what packets are inserted on 9.01 repository. How can I see it by internet? Thank you | 07:29 |
| enzyme | node357: Don't remove that yet. Here, I'll try and find the article on how to convert .. don't do anything yet | 07:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | node357: thats just a metapackage, it doesn't actually uninstall the desktop | 07:29 |
| metaphlex | so i figure this is important for linux in general due to copyright issues: will games be able to be played using HTML5 without flash, and will flash games be able to be played using HTML5? Cause then linuc could do away with flash entirely | 07:29 |
| node357 | okay enzyme, thanks | 07:30 |
| Deathvalley122 | zhaozhou: I have reported a bug about it but haven't gotten a response back | 07:30 |
| === t3cki3_ is now known as t3cki3 | ||
| node357 | IndyGunFreak, I tried to purge pulseaudio in 9.04.. it really did remove gnome and everything. | 07:30 |
| voraistos | Deathvalley: cheap redneck solution, transform the dvd player into a powerful laser, and get your stuff exclusively from TPB and apt :P | 07:30 |
| lstarnes | metaphlex: flash games still need flasg | 07:30 |
| lstarnes | *flash | 07:30 |
| enzyme | node357: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound try that.. and i'll find some more | 07:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | node... hmm, i'd have to see that to believe it.. if you pay attention, "ubuntu-desktop" gets removed a lot during uninstalls. | 07:30 |
| wooly | lstarnes: still [-20] Not a directory | 07:31 |
| Deathvalley122 | voraistos: I would if I had a app do that with lol | 07:31 |
| node357 | enzyme, that's what I was just following... I think it's pretty dated. I would write new documentation if I could get this system working right. | 07:31 |
| lstarnes | wooly: you need a directory, I think | 07:31 |
| lstarnes | wooly: is /mnt/home a directory? | 07:31 |
| wooly | i created /mnt/home | 07:31 |
| zhaozhou | Deathvalley122: yes, but, is the cd still mounted after it's been ejected via the button? | 07:31 |
| jeffhmb | GJLenon, 64bit apps will use more memory, but they can also be faster. 32bit might be "easier" since you might have a hard time finding 64bit proprietary plugins for certain apps. | 07:31 |
| [V]ortex` | how do i get rhythmbox to auto detect songs on other drives so that i don't have to keep loading them at startup? | 07:31 |
| node357 | IndyGunFreak, when enzyme finds the article, I'll purge pulseaudio and let you know if I still have a de lol | 07:31 |
| voraistos | Deathvalley122 did it stop working after upgrade, or is this a fresh install or what? | 07:31 |
| Deathvalley122 | no zhaozhou | 07:31 |
| mayki | i got a question here, should be easy, but i have a mind cramp for some reason (probably because am stuck on a windows machine atm) | 07:32 |
| slurp | bazhang: nothing? | 07:32 |
| GJLenon | Lonejack: Try http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/ and see if that is what you are looking for. | 07:32 |
| Deathvalley122 | this is a fresh new install voraistos | 07:32 |
| lstarnes | wooly: actually, I think the keyfile is supposed to be a .pem | 07:32 |
| lonejack | GJLenon: okay, thx | 07:32 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb... i am about to give up. My keyboard does not even have a *...Is there another way to find out? | 07:32 |
| Deathvalley122 | and it did it on a upgrade too voraistos | 07:32 |
| bazhang | slurp, still checking | 07:32 |
| wooly | lstarnes i dont think I have a .pem file but i'll check | 07:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | node357: roger.. :) | 07:33 |
| jgornick | Curious, does anyone have this webcam? | 07:33 |
| jgornick | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826105219 | 07:33 |
| slurp | ok thx | 07:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | bazhang: everything i saw for that card, was for hoary and breezy.. | 07:33 |
| GJLenon | Jeffhmb: Since I'm only running 2g RAM, are the two going to run at equal speed? I read that 64-bit excels by allowing programs to use in excess of 3g RAM. | 07:33 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, Fn-P seems to be a * . | 07:33 |
| lstarnes | wooly: it might be something different | 07:33 |
| marcelcohrs | i cant access my mysql with my account error 1045 access denied for user marcel | 07:33 |

| zedster | "lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon" issue with my sound, anyone know this one? | 07:33 |
| metaphlex | lstarnes, i was having an argument with a friend that we won't be able to kill flash cause of online games | 07:33 |
| marcelcohrs | can anybody help? | 07:33 |
| maxjizzy | jgornick, i have a similair | 07:34 |

| Bragex9 | jeffhmb... nope it's an \ | 07:34 |
| jtmoney | i set the date/time/weather applet to display weather, but it's not updating... anyone else experiencing this? | 07:34 |
| jgornick | maxjizzy, And with Ubuntu and Skype, seems to work OK? | 07:34 |
| wooly | lstarnes there doesnt appear to be anything in there that would be a key besides unwrapped-passphrase and Private.sig | 07:34 |
| marcelcohrs | yo | 07:34 |
| Deathvalley122 | so what should I do in this situation zhaozhou? | 07:34 |
| metaphlex | he's a mac fan and brought up something about how adobe created something where flash games can easily be converted to run on the iphone as an example of how we would get past that, but it doesn't seem likely to me | 07:34 |
| maxjizzy | jgornick, yes offc | 07:34 |
| marcelcohrs | i cant access my mysql with my account error 1045 access denied for user marcel, PLEASE | 07:34 |
| aaron116 | Hello does anyone know how to config a ZTE AC8700 modem. Its a USB modem and I've tried wvdial before but it said that /dev/ttyUSB0 doesn't exist! Im working on Jaunty and want to jump on top of a Koala ;) but there is no internet for me! | 07:34 |
| jeffhmb | GJLenon, I don't have a simple answer for you. Your life is likely to be easier with 32bit if you only have 2G of RAM and have no plans to go to 4 or more? | 07:35 |
| === keppi_ is now known as robbe | ||
| GJLenon | metaphlex: By nature, flash runs on your system, only using the Internet to send small packets back and forth, as opposed to playing a server based game. Are you purposefully trying to crash Flash or what? | 07:35 |
| wooly | lstarnes not sure how I was supposed to know what files to backup...I guess I just hoped I would be able to put in the right username and pass and it'd work :\ | 07:35 |
| node357 | Okay, ubuntu-desktop is gone. Haha. brb | 07:35 |
| Deathvalley122 | I never had this problem on Jaunty it's mostly a bug or a kernel issue either one ... | 07:35 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, you' | 07:35 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, you're still in a text window, right? | 07:35 |
| voraistos | Deathvalley122 I suggest your try force-reinstalling gnome-vfs and related files. Normally that lib (gnomvfsDrive) is what handles that stuff, and it seems to be broken, possibly absent | 07:35 |
| Bragex9 | yes | 07:35 |
| node357 | IndyGunFreak, you were right, and I was paranoid. | 07:36 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, yes still in text window | 07:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | node357: i wasn't gonna tell you so, but yeah, i knew i was right.. :) | 07:36 |
| node357 | enzyme, I'm giong to follow the rest of that page, thanks much. | 07:36 |
| bazhang | slurp, what (if anything ) does sudo modprobe sk98lin return | 07:36 |
| node357 | :D | 07:36 |
| lstarnes | wooly: you could try http://www.kaijanmaki.net/blog/2009/10/26/recovering-files-from-ecryptfs-encrypted-home/ | 07:36 |
| voraistos | DeathValley: I also suggest reinstalling metapackages such as "gnome" or ubuntu-desktop | 07:36 |
| maxjizzy | aaron116, got a usbstick? | 07:36 |
| metaphlex | GJLenon, no, i'm just ignorant to a degree about HTML 5. If everyone still needs a flash plugin to play all of the millions of online games, how could html5 "kill" flash? | 07:36 |
| Deathvalley122 | how do I install that voraistos? | 07:36 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, ok, run aptitude. | 07:36 |
| daf_ | Can anyone tell me if there is a later mini.iso of karmic the one I found is Oct 17th. | 07:37 |
| node357 | Would that cause a problem on an upgrade though, having no ubuntu-desktop? | 07:37 |
| Threetimes | Hi, I can't connect myn phone, or a cardreader (USB). syslog says http://pastebin.com/d5d53d81b | 07:37 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, after it loads, hit / (slash key) and then type kernel-source in the search box. | 07:37 |

| mayki | file comparison: http://paste.ubuntu.com/305698/ | 07:37 |
| lstarnes | metaphlex: html 5 has support for many elements that html 4 lacked, but that alone likely isn't enough. Improvements in javascript would be needed in conjunction with html 5 to replace things like flash | 07:38 |

| voraistos | and it might not even work | 07:39 |
| tjboudreaux | Any suggestions? | 07:39 |
| node357 | Oops. there is no asound.conf. Now I have no sound support at all. | 07:39 |
| bazhang | alexander_, 9.10? check the md5 sum and do the disk integrity check after burning very slowly? | 07:39 |
| maxjizzy | alexander if you mount the cd in ubnutu 8.04 is it readable? | 07:39 |
| metaphlex | lstarnes, thanks. hopefully this was somewhat relevant to linux given that it is a copyright issue. | 07:39 |

| GJLenon | metaphlex: My understanding is that HTML 5 is being pushed by Microsoft to create an "industry standard" to control plug-ins. An easy way to think about this is to compare it to DirectX. Before DirectX there were many platforms, but DirectX was implimented and through added versatility and added benefits pushed all others out of the market until DirectX virtually controls all dynamic media. Whether this is superior or not is up for debate. | 07:40 |
| lstarnes | metaphlex: I do not see how that is related to copyright | 07:40 |
| slurp | i don't know tha model is this http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=WLG-1101 | 07:40 |
| node357 | Thank you enzyme .. I might have to start over since I went ahead after you asked me to wait, but I will try this. | 07:40 |
| chris062689 | What are some ggood wireless ethernet cards (on newegg?) that provide good compatablility, and are cheap? | 07:40 |
| lstarnes | metaphlex: it might be related to the fact that html 5 and javascript are open standards with open implementations, while flash is largely closed | 07:40 |
| alexander_ | maxjizzy: actually.. it isn't. K3B said sucessful burn with no errors :S thats odd | 07:40 |
| RPG_Master | How should I go about importing my entire .Evolution folder on a fresh install? | 07:40 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: come on, DirectX is the only good thing Microsoft ever produced | 07:40 |
| maxjizzy | alexander that's your problem then | 07:41 |
| metaphlex | lstarnes, flash is a proprietary format that we must install in linux to enable full use of the internet, while html5 may replace that with open standards | 07:41 |
| RPG_Master | When I start Evolution it goes into the whole start up dialog :/ | 07:41 |
| alexander_ | bazhang: yeah, its kubuntu 9.10-dvd-i386.iso | 07:41 |
| alexander_ | bazhang: my bad, i always mix version numbers up :S fingers go faster than brain sometimes | 07:41 |
| Deathvalley122 | voraistos: I don't think the developers know about this and that's 1 and 2 I don't know if anybody else is having this issue | 07:41 |
| maxjizzy | alexander probably burning to fast | 07:41 |
| Madpilot | RPG_Master, did you do an export from your old evolution install? not everything is in .evolution | 07:41 |
| slurp | bazhang, the model is this http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=WLG-1101 | 07:41 |
| metaphlex | lstarnes, yeah, sorry didn't read that in time | 07:41 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, nothing happens after typing kernel-source in the search box... | 07:42 |
| bazhang | alexander_, then corrupt iso (md5 it) or bad burn | 07:42 |
| voraistos | Deathvalley122: apparently there already are bug reports on the issue | 07:42 |

| jeffhmb | Bragex9, OK, then go for this: sudo apt-get install nvidia-185-kernel-source | 07:42 |

| slurp | tnx bazhang | 07:43 |
| socks4anon | where is the writeup on replace the sound system in jaunty with oss 4.1 | 07:43 |
| socks4anon | sounds like the way to go | 07:43 |
| voraistos | deathvalley122: just hang around the bugtracker, make sure this goes through, give any info required, until the thing gets "critical" and is corrected. then all you have to do is update, or apply offered fix | 07:43 |
| metaphlex | GJLenon, i thought microsoft was apprehensive about html5... also i don't want to add confusion to this chatroom, if this conversation is too off-topic is there a better channel someone may suggest? | 07:43 |
| maxjizzy | alexander_ try unetbootin if you want to save some cd's | 07:43 |
| GJLenon | voraistos: I contest that any product which controls the entire market is bad. Competition is what creates excellence. Look at US airports. Without healthy competition, the standards have gone down hill. While I agree that DirectX has done some amazing things, at some point it will begin to stagnate variable media. Look at all the advances in console gaming. When was the last time you saw a TRULY innovative PC game? | 07:43 |

| bazhang | slurp, couple of questions; have you had this card work before, and if so, how did you do so--the forums threads indicate a need for ndiswrapper, which means the last resort for getting that card going | 07:44 |
| socks4anon | allright gonna try this | 07:45 |
| nurettin | i have got two tv card | 07:45 |
| nurettin | one analog the other one digital | 07:45 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: PC games suck because their devs have no imagination. DirectX is superior to their only true competition, openGl-based, what-we-use-on-linux SDL and SDL sucks, even on linux. Things like UT run better on wine that they do with SDL linux binaries :O | 07:45 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, but no nvidia, right? If so, then try the install command I sent before | 07:45 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, ok. I will try that | 07:46 |
| maxjizzy | nurettin, cool, do you got alot of satelite channels to watch? | 07:46 |
| slurp | this is the first time that i use it. yes i read about ndiswrapper but i don't have the cd driver and don't find the drive on the net | 07:46 |
| node357 | voraistos, doesn't SDL render with OpenGL? | 07:46 |
| voraistos | yes | 07:46 |
| slurp | bazhang, this is the first time that i use it. yes i read about ndiswrapper but i don't have the cd driver and don't find the drive on the net | 07:46 |
| Threetimes | Hi, I can't connect myn phone, or a cardreader (USB). syslog says http://pastebin.com/d5d53d81b | 07:47 |
| === linux__ is now known as bus2525 | ||
| voraistos | node357: openGL is dealt with by mesagl on linux | 07:47 |
| bazhang | slurp, presumably this is an older computer without builtin wireless; its not well supported in linux (ie the need for ndiswrapper) | 07:47 |
| bus2525 | hi bazhang | 07:47 |
| GJLenon | voraistos: I'm thinking about the 80's and 90's, with games back then. Sierra was a master at pushing out games of quality, but so were a myriad of other companies. These days there are only three or four major PC game manufacturers. There are dozens for console games. You cannot tell me this has nothing to do with DirectX and it's insane licensing policies. | 07:48 |
| bazhang | !ot | 07:48 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 07:48 |
| node357 | GJLenon, I think it might also have something to do with how easy it is to make and distribute unauthorized copies of PC games. | 07:49 |
| slurp | bazhang, oh yes i undestand, but without driver it not work | 07:49 |
| bus2525 | thank my bazhang | 07:49 |
| GJLenon | node357: True, it's a complex issue. | 07:49 |
| bazhang | please take the licensing chat to #ubuntu-offtopic | 07:50 |
| RPG_Master | Can I make an Evolution archive manually? (like, without actually using Evolution? | 07:50 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: then they can use something else! But non-one is interested. DirectX offered higher everything, and it's supported by a big company. Remember that the company that created OpenGL went bust. I'm not even sure who's in charge of it nowadays. | 07:50 |
| GJLenon | Apologies, I'll keep it on-topic. | 07:50 |
| jfbeghin | Hi,I try to upgrade my Ubuntu version 9.04 but I have an error with "ubuntu minimal" cannot be found. Can you help me ? | 07:50 |
| GJLenon | Anyone know if it is possible to upgrade from 9.04 64-bit to 9.10 32-bit? | 07:51 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: There was also another 3D standard deveopped by 3dfx. While I loved these cards, Many games didn't work with them | 07:51 |
| RPG_Master | So, any help with Evolution? | 07:51 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: with a bit of hacking that should be possible | 07:51 |
| GJLenon | Ugh. My hacking skills are very limited. | 07:51 |
| nikitis | 3dfx was the smoothest | 07:51 |
| node357 | Gah, I almost pasted a bunch of terminal commands into the chat window. btw, Empathy not supporting IRC kinda sucks. | 07:51 |
| nikitis | OpenGL is way better actually than directx | 07:52 |
| qq99 | Empathy kinda sucks in general | 07:52 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: the thing is you have to make sure absolutely everything has to be replaced, so good luck. Even config files would need changing for it to work | 07:52 |
| enzyme | nikitis: mmmmmmm..... that's a harsh debate.... | 07:52 |
| node357 | I'm following this article on how to setup OSS, and I get permission denied trying to write to a conf file, even with sudo. | 07:52 |
| enzyme | node357: sudo su | 07:53 |
| GJLenon | Maybe I should just do a fresh install. Could I just save my /home directory to keep all my personal data? | 07:53 |
| nikitis | Game developers just design in dx cause they don't think they can sell large volumes of games with open source | 07:53 |
| node357 | crazy. so much for sudo, lol. Thanks enzyme | 07:53 |
| nikitis | They go were the money is | 07:53 |
| Flannel | node357: What command are you trying? | 07:53 |
| nikitis | But if you co | 07:53 |
| DigitalKiwi | nikitis: also dx is easier to use than the alternatives >.> | 07:53 |
| node357 | If I ever get my act together, I want to push to make Ubuntu the best for games. | 07:54 |
| Hajuu | Hey guys i'm having some problems with my ubuntu virtual machines (vm's) | 07:54 |
| node357 | Flannel, sudo cat /lib/linux-sound-base/noALSA.modprobe.conf >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 07:54 |
| Hajuu | er sorry, let me type this out in entirety. | 07:54 |
| nikitis | Pare detailed screenshots of the two OpenGL can render better quality | 07:54 |
| node357 | "permission denied" | 07:54 |
| enzyme | node357: You mean GNU/Linux :) | 07:54 |
| Flannel | node357: cat /lib/whatever | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 07:54 |
| nikitis | But not by much | 07:54 |
| RPG_Master | nvm :P | 07:54 |
| Flannel | node357: That's the proper command (you don't need to sudo the cat, you want to sudo the write) | 07:54 |
| jgb | what is the reason for not having a .jigdo for ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386 ? | 07:54 |
| Flannel | jgb: jigdo doesn't make sense for desktop CDs | 07:55 |
| node357 | Thanks Flannel. I was just copying and pasting from this article, but I see it's wrong now. | 07:55 |
| theadmin | jgb: Meh, we have torrents, it's enough | 07:55 |
| Hajuu | Hey guys i'm having some problems with my ubuntu virtual machines (vm's), mainly to do with networking. Sometimes it seems very difficult to get my VM's working with the internet, but they used to work perfectly. The vm's themselves havent been modified, although obviously over time the copy of ubuntu has been modified. | 07:55 |
| Hajuu | So from this I deduce it's an ubuntu problem. | 07:55 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: shouldn't be a problem. Just get rid of all the config files/dirs in the /home dir though | 07:55 |
| enzyme | Hajuu: Which Virtual Machine software are you using? | 07:55 |
| jgb | Flannel: can I install the same system with the alternate cd as with the desktop one? | 07:55 |
| Flannel | jgb: There's like a dozen small packages on the desktop CD, the bulk of it is the casper image | 07:55 |
| Hajuu | Basically it connects to the ethernet connection fine, but I cannot access the internet | 07:55 |
| Flannel | jgb: You can, yes. | 07:55 |
| Bragex9 | Jeffhmb, I don't understand this. I only get to a black screen prompting for desktop login... | 07:56 |
| Hajuu | it even seems to resolve domains (it resolves googles ip but I cant ping it) | 07:56 |
| node357 | enzyme, I do want new and old games to work on all of GNU/Linux, but since Ubuntu seems to be really popular, I'd probably focus on it. I feel like pulseaudio is a step in the wrong direction for game support. | 07:56 |
| slurp | bazhang, can you help me to find the driver? i don't find it | 07:56 |
| Flannel | theadmin: Please don't be so dismissive | 07:56 |
| === nikitis is now known as nikitis-mobile | ||
| jgb | Flannel: thanx. | 07:56 |
| theadmin | Sorry, Flannel. | 07:56 |
| Hajuu | enzyme: I'm using vmware um, 5 I think | 07:56 |
| node357 | People like Arch Linux and Slackware don't push pulseaudio, so I find them better for games... | 07:56 |
| bazhang | slurp, not found one yet | 07:56 |
| Hajuu | Oh, vmware 6 | 07:56 |
| Hajuu | workstation | 07:56 |
| jgb | theadmin: jigdo is better for locally hosted mirrors... | 07:56 |
| jeffhmb | Bragex9, I wish I could help you; I think you're pretty close at this point. | 07:56 |
| voraistos | nikitis: it's got nothing to do with opensource | 07:57 |
| jeffhmb | I gotta go to bed, though. | 07:57 |
| enzyme | Hajuu: try changing the networking in VMware to either Bridged or Hosted NIC. | 07:57 |
| GJLenon | voraistos: Sorry to be ignorant, but how will I know if it is conflicting? | 07:57 |
| Bragex9 | jeffhmb, thanks anyway! I will play around and see what happens | 07:57 |
| voraistos | nikitis DirectX is a complete platform, OpenGL is only the equivalent of Direct3D. then you've got DirectSound, etc... | 07:57 |
| slurp | ah, mmm, ok tnx bazhang, i buy a new wireless card eheh :) | 07:58 |
| node357 | God, this whole article is full of mistakes. | 07:58 |
| Hajuu | OH! thanks for the hint enzyme, it wasnt a problem with that but with the interface it was automatically selecting to use for the internet | 07:58 |
| tend | I tried to upgrade a laptop Acer 5612 AWLMi from Ubuntu 8.04 to 9.10 and I took: General error mounting filesystems. root@tasos-laptop:~#what can i do to have my last system! | 07:58 |
| bazhang | voraistos, please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic | 07:58 |
| Hajuu | Manually set it now, lets give this a try! | 07:58 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: it probably will. I'm sure your config isn't irreplaceable, just keep your Music, movies and stuff, remove the rest | 07:58 |
| jgb | Flannel: how is the squashfs for desktop iso's generated? | 07:58 |
| Jesi | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8202661#post8202661 <-- input needed for potential tut video | 07:58 |
| GJLenon | voraistos: Bleh, ok. | 07:59 |
| node357 | I feel like I'm entering programs into my TI-99 from a book, configuring sound this way. | 07:59 |
| GJLenon | Ooh, maybe I'll upload all that stuff to the new ubuntu One! | 07:59 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: It's just that I have no idea how the installer will handle it. | 07:59 |
| Flannel | jgb: I'm not up on the details, but I imagine you can read all about it on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization | 07:59 |
| jgb | thx | 07:59 |
| [V]ortex` | how do i get rhythmbox to auto detect songs on other drives so that i don't have to keep loading them at startup? | 07:59 |
| GJLenon | voraistos: Ok. Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it. | 07:59 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: also keep in mind the default for 9.10 is ext4. I don't know what it is you've got now | 08:00 |
| enzyme | node357: Yeah, it's a bit unorthadox on Ubuntu, but once you get it it works great. | 08:00 |
| GJLenon | voraistos: I dunno. I'll probably reformat the drive anyway. | 08:00 |
| telive | nick | 08:00 |
| voraistos | lol OK :P | 08:00 |
| telive | nick | 08:00 |
| blinkiz | Tried a couple of days ago to get a key from keyserver.ubuntu.com but it did not work. Same thing today. Is the keyserver down? | 08:00 |
| Hajuu | Ok now i'm really not seeing why i'm unable to say, ping google. | 08:01 |
| savior02 | wow i got locked out of my box by going to the command line | 08:01 |
| node357 | I sure hope so, enzyme .. I was really looking for a "just works" OS, but hopefully this is the only major tinkering I have to do. brb | 08:01 |
| GJLenon | Is there a way to save all the message rules and passwords for Evolution though? Took me a while to get it to remove the thousand or so spam a day I get. | 08:01 |
| Madpilot | blinkiz, a lot of the ubuntu servers are slow - release is hammering them, so keyserver might be affected | 08:01 |
| Hajuu | I have a valid network connection on my ubuntu vm, which I can ping from my windows host through the router (non-directly), but the ubuntu machine cant ping google, yet it resolves its ip. | 08:01 |
| telive | hello | 08:01 |
| blinkiz | Madpilot, ok | 08:02 |
| enzyme | Hajuu, by chance, are you using Windows 7? | 08:02 |
| voraistos | Madpilot: This is a bug. Ubuntu servers should have no problems serving Ubuntu :D | 08:02 |
| hkuieagle | hello,telive | 08:02 |
| Hajuu | No, XP | 08:02 |
| enzyme | Do you have your firewall enabled? | 08:02 |
| Hajuu | Although I will be upgrading to windows 7 and vmware 6.5 soon | 08:02 |
| telive | hi hk | 08:02 |
| Hajuu | Nah and like I say, it was all working | 08:02 |
| Madpilot | voraistos, heh. It gets a bit busy around release time, as you might have noticed :) | 08:03 |
| SingAlong_ | whats the command to start the terminal? I want to add the shortcut to the terminal to the panel. | 08:03 |
| enzyme | Hajuu, have you tried VirtualBox? | 08:03 |
| Hajuu | sometimes id have to disable and reenable the connection in my vm in order to reconnect it, mainly if I restored from a suspend | 08:03 |
| Hajuu | I'm a software developer | 08:03 |
| Hajuu | so VMWare offers some very nice features | 08:03 |
| karmic_police | has anyone uninstalled evolution successfully without it breaking gnome? | 08:03 |
| voraistos | Madpilot: actually I was installing a few packages earlier on, I had full speed (Ok, from a mirror but still....) | 08:04 |
| almoxarife | Hajuu: the ubuntu is the vm on windows? | 08:04 |
| Hajuu | Yeah, XP | 08:04 |
| node357 | NOTE! You are using trial version of Open Sound System | 08:04 |
| theadmin | man, it got so noisy here after Karmic was released -_- | 08:04 |
| G_A_C | SingAlong_: gnome-terminal | 08:04 |
| karmic_police | i uninstalled evolution and when i rebooted all i had was a terminal window | 08:04 |
| Madpilot | voraistos, nice. I've gotten in the habit of torrenting the Alternate CD and upgrading from that, almost always faster than doing a full upgrade from the servers on release day | 08:04 |
| almoxarife | Hajuu: xp is firewalled? | 08:04 |
| Hajuu | you probably removed parts of gnome MadGirl | 08:04 |
| Hajuu | er Madpilot | 08:05 |
| SingAlong_ | G_A_C: I'm running xfce. the xfce terminal seems a bit pretty. | 08:05 |
| enzyme | node357: uhh, that doesn't sound right. OSSv4 is open source. | 08:05 |
| Hajuu | almoxarife: Nah it was working before, but now its not | 08:05 |
| Madpilot | Hajuu, huh? was that for karmic_police? | 08:05 |
| Hajuu | Thus why I dont understand | 08:05 |
| GJLenon | Anyone else notice increased download speeds in 9.04? I run a very nice internet connection and I can "drain" it with ubuntu. D/L speeds of 300k+ High enough that no one else on the network can do anything on the net. | 08:05 |
| karmic_police | i used synaptics and checked anything associated with evolution | 08:05 |
| Hajuu | lol sorry | 08:05 |
| Hajuu | it was | 08:05 |
| node357 | karmic_police, looks like you can uninstall evolution without problem. | 08:05 |
| Hajuu | Meh it would be associated with gnome | 08:05 |
| Hajuu | not with evolution | 08:05 |
| node357 | enzyme.. I duno.. I installed the .deb from the OSS web site mentioned in the article you showed me. | 08:06 |
| enzyme | ehhhh, I should have looked it over.. brb.. I'll check it out | 08:06 |
| voraistos | Madpilot: I never ever upgrade. I usually temper too much with the system for it to work smoothly. I just keep the home partition :P | 08:06 |
| G_A_C | SingAlong_: my mistake, I thought you were running Ubuntu with GNOME, I don't know what the xfce terminal is called :) | 08:06 |
| node357 | Ugh. Now I don't have a sound mixer. | 08:06 |
| node357 | Okay enzyme, thanks. | 08:06 |
| SingAlong_ | G_A_C: thanks anyway. got it. xfce4-terminal | 08:06 |
| enzyme | node, yeah you do, it's ossxmix | 08:06 |
| enzyme | if it's installed with that deb | 08:06 |
| enzyme | ... | 08:07 |
| node357 | enzyme, does it run only in text mode? that's what i have riight now. | 08:07 |
| karmic_police | i searched in synaptics and uninstalled evolution associated packages.. unless they were also associated with gnome also | 08:07 |
| Madpilot | voraistos, I've fallen into the habit of upgrading for two or three releases, then doing a clean install (separate /home partition FTW) | 08:07 |
| enzyme | node, no, ossxmix is gui, ossmix is cli | 08:07 |
| almoxarife | has the sound applet issue been resolved when alsa is the default sound system? | 08:07 |
| karmic_police | i'm a linux noob so bear with me.. had it exactly a month now | 08:07 |
| Hajuu | hah now its back working again random as ever | 08:07 |
| node357 | Ah got it. Thanks enzyme. | 08:07 |
| Hajuu | I think it just takes some time for some reason | 08:07 |
| Hajuu | :/ | 08:07 |
| raven_ | hi.... i just did the upgrade to karmic and now have huge problems with hardware and software | 08:08 |
| node357 | What the heck!! Still no line-in at all. | 08:08 |
| karmic_police | i love karmic... i had to blacklist my usb wireless adapter to get wireless working .. otherwise no problems | 08:09 |

| === philippe is now known as Guest68167 | ||
| node357 | That sucks raven_ .. this is so frustrating. | 08:09 |
| voraistos | Madpilot: I'm wondering if I won't stick with the next LTS. I've got an intel card and my system as it was 2 or 3 days ago was unbearable. It's actually harder to use Ubuntu with custom kernel/X/OtherStuff than to run something like Gentoo. | 08:09 |
| tim | Totem gives me the following error message when i try to play a video from youtube "GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error" | 08:09 |
| karmic_police | i'll never go back to windows | 08:09 |
| raven_ | node357, is the error with your notebook? | 08:09 |
| node357 | Looks like I HAVE to go back to Windows. | 08:10 |
| karmic_police | why? | 08:10 |
| node357 | No raven_, I am using a desktop computer with a SB X-Fi sound card. | 08:10 |
| fahadsadah | !sound | node357 | 08:10 |
| ubottu | node357: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 08:10 |
| Madpilot | voraistos, ya, I know intel graphics cards hated 9.04 | 08:10 |
| fahadsadah | Did you try all of those? | 08:10 |
| raven_ | fahadsadah, in my case there is NO device i could select | 08:10 |
| karmic_police | youtube problem... you running 64bit? | 08:11 |
| node357 | Yes fahadsadah, I tried changing the device in the gnome mixer, and changing, um-muting levels in alsamixer. | 08:11 |
| voraistos | Madpilot: The fact that it made it to release (in ubuntu but in Debian too :O )was unbelievable | 08:11 |

| fahadsadah | Sorry... | 08:12 |
| fahadsadah | Ctrl+C to stop | 08:12 |
| mjbrooks | bwahahaha | 08:12 |
| voraistos | GJLenon: One servers have some sort of bug related to the previous client or something, that's why we can't use it | 08:12 |
| node357 | lol, that's okay. Sound output is fine, line-in does not work .. works on Windows, though. | 08:12 |
| karmic_police | the sound is much better in 9.10 than 9.04 | 08:12 |
| raven_ | WHY an upgrade everytime sucks with ubuntu like that - WHY | 08:12 |
| fahadsadah | We have OSS, don't have ALSA. | 08:12 |
| GJLenon | voraistos: Ahh, ok. Thanks again for the help. :) | 08:13 |
| jfbeghin | when I try to ping it, i receive no response | 08:13 |
| fahadsadah | node357: Wait. You are on 9.10, aren't you? | 08:13 |
| node357 | So far neither OSS or ALSA will allow the line-in to work. | 08:13 |
| GJLenon | Night guys, I'm going to bed. 2 hours until 9.10 is finished downloading. I'm super psyched! | 08:13 |

| SwedeMike | so... karmic on lenovo x200 laptop, by default I get audio/video desync of .5 second or so both with pulseaudio and alsa, known problem? google doesn't seem to find much previously written | 08:14 |
| node357 | I heard fresh install defaults to EXT4, and that EXT4 can corrupt large files... not very good for a new user. | 08:14 |
| voraistos | Is it not possible to mount ext3 as ext4 or something? Like ext2/ext3 ? | 08:14 |
| sugoruyo | fresh installs are always the best | 08:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | karmic_police: i wondered how that would go for people upgrading.. i clean installed myself | 08:14 |

| rgnr | ppl | 08:14 |
| rgnr | who did the upgrade? | 08:14 |
| DigitalKiwi | ext3 can be converted to ext4 easily it's just the extra features don't go on existing files | 08:14 |
| node357 | I was all hyped for new Ubuntu, now I'm very depressed. | 08:14 |
| DigitalKiwi | that and I still don't trust ext4 | 08:14 |
| rafiq | wen i uninstalled older version of firefox from multiple versions installed, firefox shows a black rectangle instead of its icon..anyone know hw to fix it.? | 08:14 |
| karmic_police | i read forums before upgrading.. i have all my data on separate hdd so i do frequent fresh installs | 08:15 |
| voraistos | node357: large files are over a TB. We don't see those very often | 08:15 |
| raven_ | rgnr, i did and nothing works any more | 08:15 |
| rgnr | i have ext4 and i'm not satisfied | 08:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | DigitalKiwi: i didn't either, but honestly, its been fine for me for about a month... | 08:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | karmic_police: sounds like me and you have similar setups. | 08:15 |
| karmic_police | i hear large files can be lost in ext4.. hope they fix that pronto.. lol | 08:15 |

| IndyGunFreak | DigitalKiwi: i dont do frequent reinstalls, i just don't upgrade my OS's, i always clean install, so its easier to keep my data on another partition, and when a new release comes out, i just install it over th eold one | 08:16 |
| zeltak1 | hi guys..i remember a while ago i saw an applet/prog that changed the taskbar into "icons" ala win7..cant find it now..anyone knows anything 'bout that? | 08:16 |
| voraistos | karmic_police: It's not lost, it's all over bittorrent :D | 08:16 |
| karmic_police | well, i used to do frequent installs.. when i had windoze. lol | 08:16 |
| node357 | Anyone know why the line-in won't work on my SB X-Fi sound card? | 08:16 |

| MaxJizzy | how do i check if i have 3D support? | 08:17 |
| tim | karmic_police, 64 bit karmic | 08:17 |
| DarK`` | where do I set the time the grub bootloader is shown? It used to be in /boot/grub/menu.lst but that file doesnt exist anymore in 9.10 ? | 08:17 |
| joaopinto | ArtVandalae, you could list all the installed apps with dpkg -l | 08:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | MaxJizzy: sys/pref/appearance/visual effects, and set it to extra... if it goes w/o error, you should be ok | 08:18 |
| lstarnes | DarK``: it might be grub.conf | 08:18 |
| almoxarife | rafiq: delete it if its on the tool bar | 08:18 |
| joaopinto | those which are not include on ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-desktop are post install | 08:18 |

| joaopinto | !grub2 | DarK`` | 08:18 |
| ubottu | DarK``: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 08:18 |
| DarK`` | lstarnes: there is a file /boot/grub/grub.cfg but it doesnt set a time-variable as far as Ican tell... | 08:18 |
| * IndyGunFreak hates grub2 | 08:18 | |
| zeltak1 | nah IndyGunFreak and joaopinto i mean a taskbar with icons instead of long boxes with app names..like win7 and tint2 (in crucnhbang) | 08:18 |
| DigitalKiwi | wah ubuntu actually switched to that beta stuff, haha | 08:18 |
| voraistos | He broke his computer out of frustration with windows, and now complains it doesn't work anymore, even with *nixes :D | 08:19 |
| node357 | The sound card, the line input doesn't work with ALAS or OSS.. it works in Windows, so I know it's not broken. | 08:19 |
| karmic_police | tim. try this for your youtube prob. sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-* --purge then sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 08:19 |
| IndyGunFreak | zeltak1: only thing i'm aware of, even remotely like that, is avant window manager. | 08:19 |
| DarK`` | ubottu: okay, thanks :) | 08:19 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about okay, thanks :) | 08:19 |

| dopple | hey could someone tell me how to create a md5 hash from a specified file? | 08:19 |
| node357 | voraistos, I really want to get away from Windows, but every time I try GNU/Linux something doesn't work, and I can never find a solution to the problem. | 08:19 |

| joaopinto | sugoruyo, as long as they are supported by ATI yes, older card modesl, do not | 08:19 |
| Snicksie | node357, does your sound card work with pulse-audio? | 08:19 |
| DigitalKiwi | sugoruyo: that depends, on what card and how you define works | 08:19 |
| MaxJizzy | IndyGunFreak, it say, searching for temporary drivers, and then desktop effects could not be enabled. | 08:20 |
| node357 | Snicksie, yes, except for line-in. | 08:20 |

| IndyGunFreak | MaxJizzy: so you don't have 3D | 08:20 |
| karmic_police | does the alpha work? i have read that it is problematic | 08:20 |
| DigitalKiwi | there is a factoid on a bot I love "!ati" returns "Get nvidiai!" | 08:20 |
| zeltak1 | IndyGunFreak: joaopinto: look at this screen: http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/8528/screenshot020.png | 08:20 |
| IndyGunFreak | MaxJizzy: what graphics device do you have | 08:20 |
| DigitalKiwi | s/nvidiai/nvidia/ | 08:20 |
| MaxJizzy | IndyGunFreak, i did have 3D in 8.04 | 08:20 |
| voraistos | node357: I can't say, My sound cards always worked fine :) The only problem I ever had was with broadcom wireless, and it works pretty well now. | 08:20 |
| node357 | :( | 08:20 |
| IndyGunFreak | MaxJizzy: well, what version are you using now? | 08:20 |
| Snicksie | node357, perhaps you can try to install pavucontrol and perhaps that will work to get it working? | 08:21 |
| joaopinto | zeltak1, like we said, that's a dock | 08:21 |
| === sHuT^dOwN is now known as sHuT^DOWN | ||

| MaxJizzy | IndyGunFreak, intel 830 M i think | 08:21 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: ? | 08:21 |
| Psinetic | didn't work.. | 08:21 |
| joaopinto | zeltak1, and it's a Mac OS X concept, not windows one | 08:21 |

| zeltak1 | i just wondered if gnome panel had that | 08:21 |
| joaopinto | zelfje, search for "dock" on the softwate center | 08:21 |
| rgnr | anyways ppl, is 9.10 worth to upgrade to? | 08:21 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: i think your hard drive is hard bread | 08:21 |
| joaopinto | zelfje, yes it is | 08:21 |
| voraistos | node357: and that's with years and years of use, with many different machines | 08:21 |

| joaopinto | ops, zeltak1 | 08:22 |
| karmic_police | don't upgrade unless u absolutely have to.. do a fresh install | 08:22 |

| ipatel | anyone know how i can boot into single user mode using Karmic# | 08:22 |
| ipatel | GRUB2 | 08:22 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: i'm going to see if maybe wiping the partition with a windows cd will do the trick. i honestly don't understand how upgrading an operating system can totally screw a harddrive. i mean really? | 08:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: well, it really sounds like a hardware problem... see if you can get the drive to format.. | 08:23 |
| SwedeMike | so far I've seen two problems with 9.10, it wont handle crypted volumes properly at startup (doesnt handle the waiting for passphrase correctly), and 0.5s a/v desync in mplayer/vlc | 08:23 |
| node357 | X is forgetting the text I copy >:( | 08:23 |
| G_A_C | does anyone here with Intel Mobile graphics (the GM45) have really poor Flash performance? I had it in Jaunty but assumed that was down to the known Intel problems in Jaunty, but it's still bad in Karmic :( I'm using 64bit Flash from the Flash PPA on Launchpad, but I've also tried gnash and swfdec-mozilla which crashed most of the time and still had poor performance | 08:23 |
| Psinetic | yeah....this is just totally screwed up...omg | 08:23 |
| karmic_police | ext3 upgraded to ext4 may be trouble | 08:23 |
| voraistos | joaopinto: it's not a mac concept, it's a CDE (Unix) concept. | 08:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: lol, i bet you never quit an upgrade in the middle ever again...lol | 08:23 |
| SwedeMike | G_A_C: I have GM45, what should I try? | 08:24 |
| raven_ | what's this please "GSynaptics couldn't initialize. | 08:24 |
| raven_ | You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics" there is NO ENTRY like that | 08:24 |
| joaopinto | voraistos, whatever :P | 08:24 |
| node357 | pavucontrol says "connection refused" | 08:24 |
| Lartza_ | HI, Would tehre be a way to easily customize the ubuntu cd while I am on ARch Linux? | 08:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: but that might explain why the upgrade froze, if the hard drive took a dump | 08:24 |
| Psinetic | lol i bet if it does this again i'm gonna buy a mac....for serious, this is starting to piss me off | 08:24 |
| Dr_Willis | raven_: thats the old way.. tne new way was using FDI files.. but im not sure how to do it in 9.10 | 08:24 |
| G_A_C | SwedeMike: just playing things like Youtube videos, I get single numbers of frames per second, and low ones at that, it renders maybe 3 frames per second | 08:24 |
| Psinetic | yeah...that would explain it | 08:24 |
| Lartza_ | I know you can use Reconstructor while on ubuntu, but on another distro? | 08:24 |
| karmic_police | my a/v are fine in vlc | 08:24 |
| * Psinetic throws something inexpensive against the wall....>_> | 08:25 | |
| SwedeMike | G_A_C: I dont have that problem with my lenovo x200 anyway, but I'm running 32bit | 08:25 |
| karmic_police | sudo apt-get install libdvdread4 sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh | 08:25 |
| joaopinto | Lartza_, this is for ubuntu support, not other distro, and I don't think recunstrcutor works with karmic | 08:25 |
| node357 | lol, I duno where to direct my anger. Ubuntu site makes it look like the perfect alternative to Windows, til you use it. | 08:25 |
| Lartza_ | Ohh :S | 08:25 |
| ionut | can i install sketchup (of google) in ubuntu 9.10 ? | 08:25 |
| dabukalam | how can i find out what domain/realm my computer is in from a terminal. I can't connect to the samba share without it, and workgroup ain't working | 08:25 |
| Psinetic | if windows fixes my hard drive then maybe i won't hate it as much.... | 08:26 |
| IndyGunFreak | node357: its a very good alternative, but you have to learn how to use it, and you have to understand, not all hardware manufacturers co-operate by making linux drivers, so Linux developers have to figure otu a way to make things work | 08:26 |
| IndyGunFreak | this is a developer problem, nto a linux issue | 08:26 |
| G_A_C | SwedeMike: thanks, I think that might be my problem; I run AMD64 as I was hoping to upgrade the RAM in my laptop to 4 gigs down the line, but 64bit Flash is pretty bad. Maybe I should look into either reinstalling it as 32bit, or IIRC there's a way of running a 32bit firefox on a 64bit system, which would let me run the 32 bit stable Flash plugin rather than the 64bit alpha | 08:26 |
| IndyGunFreak | *hardware developer, that is | 08:26 |
| lao5 | s | 08:26 |
| MaxJizzy | Psinetic, try format with windows, install windows, download the iso fresh from a torrent, then download unetbootin and browse the iso. set it to mount from hardrive and not usb. then you are ready for a fast new install of ubuntu. do parition on your disk with windows installation. like 4 gb's of windows partition and rest to linux, leave the rest unformated. | 08:26 |
| Psinetic | has anyone else experienced this problem? i just want to make sure IndyGunFreak that this wasn't actually caused by the installer for karmic. | 08:26 |
| ionut | can i install sketchup (of google) in ubuntu 9.10 ? | 08:27 |
| ionut | can i install sketchup (of google) in ubuntu 9.10 ? | 08:27 |
| node357 | The ALSA drivers in Slackware work, but I don't want to spend my entire life compiling source code for everrything.. I don't understand why a 2-day old release of Ubuntu could not provide the same support for this sound card... | 08:27 |
| SwedeMike | ionut: don't do that. | 08:27 |
| ionut | sorry , but i am in a hurry | 08:27 |
| MaxJizzy | Psinetic, and then leave the iso for a safety, if anything fails you just load the windows bootloader and run live cd | 08:27 |
| Psinetic | MaxJizzy: you miss the point...i cna't boot any of my partitions with the live cd. i won't install windows, there's nothing wrong with the live cd at all. somehow the hard drive got jacked in the middle of my upgrade | 08:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: its very unlikely.. its been a logn time since software caused hardware failures.. if it did.. then the drive was probably close to toast anyways | 08:27 |
| SwedeMike | ionut: you're being rude. | 08:27 |
| Dr_Willis | ionut: you did check google for an answer if you are in a real hurry? | 08:27 |
| karmic_police | 9.10 in netbook reads false positive for faulty hdd | 08:28 |
| MaxJizzy | Psinetic, i have had that prob | 08:28 |
| Dr_Willis | ionut: i see mentiuon of it working in wine | 08:28 |
| ionut | i so that | 08:28 |
| ionut | but without wine, i can't install it ? | 08:28 |
| Pricey | ionut: sketchup lists Linux as an "Unsupported Environment". That took 10 seconds on a google search. As Dr_Willis mentioned however, there's success with wine. | 08:28 |
| Psinetic | MaxJizzy: and this is how you had to fix it? was by wiping the partition with windows cd? | 08:28 |
| MaxJizzy | windows format do the trick, it's always nice to have a windows beside the ubuntu, it's like jing and jang. good and bad. god and satan.. so on. | 08:28 |
| raven_ | Dr_Willis, what is necessary to restart after updating the preferences.fdi? | 08:28 |
| Dr_Willis | ionut: its a windows app.... so yes wine would be needed | 08:28 |
| node357 | And the disk utility says my brand new SATA drive has " a few bad sectors" | 08:28 |
| MaxJizzy | Psinetic, yepp | 08:29 |
| Dr_Willis | raven_: i would imagine so.. or at least restart X | 08:29 |
| Pricey | Dr_Willis: It works on osx too. | 08:29 |
| ionut | ok,thx to all | 08:29 |

| ipatel | guys.. single user mode in KArmic? anyone know? plz help | 08:30 |
| Pricey | IndyGunFreak: MaxJizzy: Why trust hte past, you can run an integrity check before booting from it? | 08:30 |
| Psinetic | MaxJizzy: then do you think we might want to let the upper level guys know they need to find a way to fix this if it ever happens again? | 08:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | i think he was jst unlucky that the drive took a dump during the upgrade | 08:30 |
| MaxJizzy | Pricey, but my hardware problem is my cd reader | 08:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | Pricey: he said he did | 08:30 |
| node357 | Anyone know how to enable line-in on SB X-Fi sound card? | 08:31 |
| MaxJizzy | and it did screw up my hard disk | 08:31 |

| n3o | ubuntu-fr | 08:31 |
| node357 | No one replied on Ubuntu fourms either. This sucks. | 08:31 |
| MaxJizzy | and still running well. without a working cd | 08:32 |
| Dr_Willis | node357: the x-fi has a history of bad linux support sadly. | 08:32 |
| node357 | Dr_Willis, I've been able to use it on every distro except Ubuntu. | 08:32 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: MaxJizzy: so what can we do to solve this problem for everyone else? | 08:32 |
| Dr_Willis | node357: play with the mixer i guess. or install the other alsa-mixers and twiddle with the mixers then | 08:33 |
| lizzzy | Anyone know what do I do for a "Load Error 15"? | 08:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: don't quit an upgrade in the middle of upgrading | 08:33 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: it bugged out, not my fault ::P | 08:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: exactly, and since we dont know why it happpened, there's nothing we can do to prevent it for other people | 08:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | i suspect hardware.. but we'll see | 08:33 |
| lockd | Dr_Willis: node357: supposedly the X-Fi drivers for OSS are a little better | 08:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | it could have been any number of things that caused it | 08:33 |
| lizzzy | I get it before grub loads | 08:34 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: i'm suggesting yes that i use the windows cd to fix it, but in case this happens again to someone else for any reason, there should be a walkthrough to get them back on track | 08:34 |
| node357 | lockd, I just set up OSS, and the line-in still doesn't work. Something in Ubuntu is messing it up. | 08:34 |
| bobsacamano | hi, i have ubuntu netbook edition running gnome, and its great. i installed xubuntu-desktop (xfce) to see if i could get better power-management, but it was very little change. 2 questions- how do i uninstall xfce, and whats a light gui to install? i prefer gnome to remain the default one, but id like to have a somewhatstripped down thing like windowmaker or something similar to conserve battery power | 08:34 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: well, walkthroughs aren't created for when something fails. | 08:34 |
| aprilhare | question: if 2.6.30 kernel had support for your webcam and you discovered karmic's 2.6.31 has mysteriously dropped your webcam, what should you do? | 08:34 |
| IndyGunFreak | they are typically created to make things go right.. but like i said, i think you have a hardware problem | 08:34 |
| joaopinto | aprilhare, file a bug report | 08:34 |
| lockd | aprilhare: and then install uvcvideo | 08:35 |
| MOUD | Hey all | 08:35 |
| aprilhare | joaopinto: i filed reports on launchpad in cheese and under the kernel | 08:35 |
| aprilhare | lockd: uvcvideo? ok i'll try that (whatever that is) | 08:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: unfortunately, there could be a myriad of things that caused the upgrade to fail(server failure, conneciton failure on your part), or you could ahve had some sort of hardware failure, or who knows what else.. bottom line, an upgrade got hosed in the middle of upgrading | 08:35 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: yes i understand. i'm saying, at least something that may work. heck i got like 1,000 windows xp cd's from work, and if it works, i'd be happy to upload it to some kind of server for everyone to grab so they can use it to fix this problem, but honestly ubuntu should be prepared for this. | 08:35 |
| lockd | node357: ugh, even making sure the mixer is set properly in ossxmix can be a pain | 08:35 |
| joaopinto | Psinetic, windows xp CDs do not fix hardware problems | 08:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: ok... assuming its a hardwaer problem.. how can ubuntu prepare for hardware problems? | 08:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | joaopinto: i been tryin to explain that for 20min. | 08:36 |
| Pricey | aprilhare: giving us the device id (the output from the command 'lsusb') would be helpful so we know exactly what chipset your camera has. | 08:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 08:36 |
| raven_ | could ANYONE tell me why this upgrade sucks everytime | 08:36 |
| aprilhare | uvcvideo not available in synaptic? | 08:37 |
| aprilhare | Pricey: good idea | 08:37 |
| Dr_Willis | raven_: it hates you? | 08:37 |
| lockd | aprilhare: it's the usb video class drivers. and there's no guarantee that it's a kernel issue | 08:37 |
| Zero_Cool | whats going on everyone | 08:37 |
| raven_ | i do not have the time to fix every ...... problem that appears here permanently | 08:37 |
| joaopinto | Psinetic, the proper solution for your problem is well know, go to your vendor as ask for a repair, or buy new hardware | 08:37 |
| joaopinto | known | 08:37 |
| Psinetic | IndyGunFreak: no i mean, if the windows cd is able to wipe the partition and sets it straight, then that means that the ubuntu partitioner is not prepared to handle such a situation where windows is. i'm not saying it's better, i hate windows anyways, but it seems to be my only option at the moment. i'm just hoping the windows partitioner is able to wipe the drive. | 08:37 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: you need to isolate this to either a software problem, or a hardware problem... ranting about ubuntu, is not going to fix a hardware problem, if its a software rpoblem, fix it.. crap happens... something happened during your upgrade, its happened to quite a few folks at one time or another | 08:37 |
| Pricey | Psinetic: The Ubuntu cd is able to do that. | 08:38 |
| node357 | So why is Ubuntu disabling the line-in on my sound card? | 08:38 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: IF.. boot the xp cd and see if it can | 08:38 |
| bobsacamano | anyone know? i do sudo apt-get remove xubuntu-desktop but it only says 1pkg and 45k will be freed up | 08:38 |
| aprilhare | lockd: ok. but a package named uvcvideo not present. what do i install? | 08:38 |
| IndyGunFreak | Pricey: ... i'd not wander into this mess if i were you... :) | 08:38 |
| Pricey | bobsacamano: afterwards, do sudo apt-get autoremove | 08:38 |
| GrossHans | wau.. looks like the update for Ubuntu One client in 9.04 works | 08:38 |
| Dr_Willis | bobsacamano: its a meta-package that just 'pulls in' other packages when installed... | 08:38 |
| joaopinto | Psinetic, wiping partitions is not fixing a problem, anyway you should be able to delete partitions with the regular "fdisk" if gparted fails | 08:38 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psinetic: you're saying if if if... but yu've not verified if xp can fix the drive yet. | 08:38 |
| Dr_Willis | bobsacamano: trying to remove stuff in bulk like that can often remove thints you dont want | 08:38 |
| lockd | aprilhare: check to see if it's supported here http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/ | 08:38 |
| IndyGunFreak | if XP fixes the drive and allows you to install.. then you'd have a logical complaint | 08:38 |
| bobsacamano | Dr_Willis, right. how do i uninstall all those packages that came with xfce though? they dont uninstall with the xubuntu-destkop removal id prefer not to hunt through synaptic :) | 08:39 |
| Psinetic | :P ok IndyGunFreak imma log off now and see if it works | 08:39 |
| Pricey | bobsacamano: afterwards, do sudo apt-get autoremove | 08:39 |
| Psinetic | be back in a little while folks | 08:39 |
| PsyberS | anyone know why amixer (or ALSA in general) is still trying to connect to pulseaudio, after i uninstalled pulseaudio? =o | 08:39 |
| IndyGunFreak | ok | 08:39 |
| aprilhare | lockd: i'd like to point out the webcam worked under 2.6.30 kernel (nightly build) | 08:39 |
| lockd | aprilhare: and yes, you have to install the Linux headers and compile it | 08:39 |
| bobsacamano | Pricey, ran it, noothing freed up | 08:39 |
| Dr_Willis | bobsacamano: try what Pricey said.. but watch carefully what its removeing. | 08:39 |
| Pricey | bobsacamano: how did you install xubuntu-desktop? | 08:39 |
| lockd | aprilhare: oh, well do you still have that kernel? | 08:39 |
| kevin__ | help! I need to free up some space on my drive -- i literally have 0 bytes left. are there some log files i can delete or something? | 08:39 |
| bobsacamano | Pricey, apt-get | 08:39 |
| node357 | PsyberS, sound in Ubuntu doesn't make any sense... | 08:39 |
| joaopinto | PsyberS, /usr/share/alsa/pulse.conf | 08:40 |
| joaopinto | node357, please stop doing useless comments | 08:40 |
| aprilhare | lockd: not on website mentioned | 08:40 |
| Pricey | !puregnome | bobsacamano See the following, but be *very* careful at looking at what it removes. Don't just accept it without looking. Make sure you do not remove critical stuff. | 08:40 |
| ubottu | bobsacamano See the following, but be *very* careful at looking at what it removes. Don't just accept it without looking. Make sure you do not remove critical stuff.: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 08:40 |
| lockd | aprilhare: your camera isn't? | 08:40 |
| mercury^ | Hi. How can I disable pulseaudio this time? | 08:40 |
| Pricey | bobsacamano: hmm... that isn't what I Wanted | 08:40 |
| bobsacamano | kevin__, check /var/log | 08:40 |
| aprilhare | lockd: still have that kernel. | 08:40 |
| joaopinto | mercury^, touch $HOME/.pulse_a11y_nostart ; echo autospawn = no|tee -a ~/.pulse/client.conf ; killall pulseaudio | 08:40 |
| aprilhare | lockd: it was a nightly build and as such had limitations. | 08:41 |
| joaopinto | mercury^, but the gnome mixer applet will stop working | 08:41 |
| DigitalKiwi | Pricey: ! we thought you were dead | 08:41 |
| Pricey | bobsacamano: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome be very careful with that. | 08:41 |
| aprilhare | but yes it worked with my webcam | 08:41 |
| node357 | joaopinto, please don't label my comments as useless, it's insulting and I won't take the abuse | 08:41 |
| Dr_Willis | kevin__: theres also some apt-get clean, or apt-get autoremove command that can clean out some things. | 08:41 |
| PsyberS | joaopinto: good thought, but that files removed when i removed 'pulseaudio' ;) | 08:41 |
| mercury^ | joaopinto: thanks! | 08:41 |
| Trezker | I installed kmix to get a sound applet | 08:41 |
| joaopinto | node357, you have just insuled all the ubuntu developers, which work to get sound in Ubuntu, so please do not offend other people first | 08:41 |
| Dr_Willis | kevin__: 5% of your hard drive is 'reserved' also for root ussage. thats tuneable with the 'tune2fs' command. | 08:41 |
| lockd | aprilhare: oh, I was going to suggest "holding" the kernel until it got fixed | 08:41 |
| joaopinto | node357, specially on a support channel | 08:41 |
| node357 | joaopinto, I can tell you first-hand that sound does not work right in Ubuntu. | 08:42 |
| lockd | Trezker: if you don't use kde you can just install gnome-applets/mixer | 08:42 |
| node357 | You wouldn't know that because you've been ignoring me up until I said something that bothered you. | 08:42 |
| joaopinto | node357, and I was refering to your comments, not to your person, and youc comments are useless because they don't provide any usefull purpose for the person seeking help | 08:42 |
| joaopinto | !ot | node357 | 08:42 |
| Pricey | node357: Sound works well in Ubuntu for me. | 08:42 |
| akrohit | Hi, I am having problems with mplayer in karmic | 08:42 |
| bobsacamano | Pricey, thanks man, i think thats what im looking for. but i dont think its uninstalling thme, it hits a few missing packages and i think its stop | 08:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Pricey: same here. :) but i gave up on creative cards. | 08:43 |
| Pricey | node357: Sound does not work well in Ubuntu for you, on your hardware, with your current configuration. | 08:43 |
| * DigitalKiwi blames linus | 08:43 | |
| joaopinto | node357, I don't ignore anyone, I don't have nothigng to help you, so I don't reply, and you should do the same when replying to other users, if you don't have nothing useful to reply, don't | 08:43 |
| aprilhare | lockd: there is already lsusb output attached to my bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/460118 | 08:43 |
| DigitalKiwi | it's all his fault! | 08:43 |
| node357 | Pricey, it's Ubuntu's fault. Not my hardware's. Every other distribution works fine with the same damn ALSA drivers in recent kernels. | 08:43 |
| node357 | I'm done with this crap. | 08:43 |
| DigitalKiwi | if he hadn't started this social revelation we could all be happily using windows | 08:43 |
| ubottu | node357: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 08:44 |
| Dr_Willis | It would be nice tohave some 'mic input' training/config wizard - seems often getting line/mic in working canbe more effort then it really should be, | 08:44 |
| * aprilhare followed proper bug reporting proceedures | 08:44 | |

| Trezker | gnome-applets/mixer ? I don't think a package/executable has a / in it | 08:44 |
| lockd | Trezker: that's a gnome package and a subdir | 08:44 |
| aprilhare | dupondje: yes firefox is a bug ;) | 08:44 |
| Dr_Willis | its always fun when you spend an hr trying to get mic in working.. then you plug the thing into the proper input.. it works in 3 sec.. :) | 08:45 |
| aprilhare | dupondje: genuine 64 bit flash is not supported by canonical | 08:45 |
| lockd | Trezker: it's in the gnome-applets source, but it's not built, so you have to go back and build it | 08:45 |
| aprilhare | dupondje: by which i refer to the 64 bit flash alpha Adobe have on their website | 08:45 |
| DigitalKiwi | which is quite nice | 08:45 |
| PsyberS | hey i dont mind pulseaudio, it worked fine in 9.04 for me but in karmic my SPDIF refuses to work now with pulseaudio installed | 08:45 |
| dupondje | aprilhare: well I know, but still, its prolly same issue with plugin included | 08:45 |
| PsyberS | uninstalling pulseaudio lets the SPDIF work through ALSA, but for some reason ALSA is defaulting to still try to use pa! | 08:46 |
| bobsacamano | Pricey, do you have a small x-server gui that you like? ive heard about windowmaker and fluxbox, what are your thoughts? i stripped xfce down a bit but it didnt offer much better battery life than gnome | 08:46 |
| Marsmensch_ | i have some problems to understand this howto for suse http://pastebin.com/m2b6382b7 and bring it to run in ubuntu ... i have placed the config file in /etc/sysconfig/ ... but i don't think it is the right place ... but can anyone explain me what means line 5 an 7? | 08:46 |
| Pricey | bobsacamano: I use gnome. | 08:46 |
| mercury^ | Well, I don't see why the installation would default to pulseaudio, as very few really need it and everyone else has to live with the delay it adds. | 08:47 |
| DigitalKiwi | openbox is the best floating wm out there :D | 08:47 |
| Dr_Willis | bobsacamano: reducing your window manager is not going to do much to battery life. theres all sortsof other things that suck down battery faster. | 08:47 |
| aprilhare | dupondje: we all have bugs reported that won't get touched in a long time. for instance this one https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/452765 | 08:48 |
| Trezker | and how do I build the gnome mixer? | 08:48 |
| Dr_Willis | bobsacamano: cpu is one big drain yes.. but the HD & LCD brightness are proberly also big drains | 08:48 |
| lockd | Trezker: is all you want a mixer, or is sound broken? | 08:48 |
| Trezker | Just the mixer, sound works fine | 08:48 |
| lockd | Trezker: well, just use kmix if you already installed it and don't want to mess with compiling | 08:48 |
| bobsacamano | Dr_Willis, i have the cpu throttled ok, and a ssd. :) thanks though | 08:49 |
| bobsacamano | Pricey, Dr_Willis thanks your guys help. im out for the evening, have a good night | 08:49 |
| PsyberS | Trezker: sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer | 08:49 |
| Dr_Willis | bobsacamano: You are proberly going to get about much battery life as you can. | 08:49 |
| Dr_Willis | bobsacamano: get a little foot powered generator.. :) | 08:49 |

| lockd | Trezker: you also won't have the gnome sound preferences, so you have to use gconf to turn off alert sounds and all | 08:50 |
| mediadata | hi guys... | 08:51 |
| mediadata | how i find a driver print canon pixma ip1800 with ubuntu jaunty | 08:51 |
| g0th | when I upgraded from karmic my whole mail system "vannished". Before I used shredder now I have thunderbird (I thought they were the same?!). Anyway, 90% of my mail is gone, a lot of settings are lost, I had to rename .thunderbird-3.0 to .mozilla-thunderbird to get any information at all and certificates and passwords dont properly work anymore. What do I do? | 08:51 |
| kevin__ | do i need any logs found in /var/log? | 08:52 |
| lockd | mediadata: cups drivers search shows 0 hits for pixma | 08:53 |
| ugur | hi, all. I have upgraded jaunty to karmic and now when i try to recconfigure virtualbox for the new kernel via /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup it says: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel | 08:53 |
| kevin__ | anyone hit this error before: "Please check for broken packages with synaptic, check the file permissions and correctness of the file '/etc/apt/sources.list' and reload the software information with: 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get install -f'." | 08:53 |
| mediadata | lockd, i try... | 08:53 |
| ugur | kevin__: have you installed sun java lately? | 08:54 |
| g0th | anyone please? | 08:54 |
| kevin__ | trying to get eclipse-pydev | 08:54 |
| kevin__ | ugur, trying to get eclipse-pydev | 08:54 |
| mediadata | lockd, so un support it ? | 08:55 |
| ugur | try installing it via command prompt instead of synaptic | 08:55 |
| kbp | I'm planning to buy a single-core Atom cpu for Ubuntu server. Will I notice any difference if I use dual-core? Which one does Ubuntu work best with? Thanks | 08:55 |
| goodnight | grub 2 is beta in karmic? | 08:55 |
| lockd | mediadata: it says it's supported here, but I've never used Canon due to previous annoyances http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-PIXMA_iP1800 | 08:55 |
| PsyberS | kbp: that really depends on your needs, but for a *server* you probably want multiple cores | 08:56 |
| dr3mro | hey guys i did hear that rhythmbox is ceased development and no new features any more does that mean it will not be part of next ubuntu ?? | 08:56 |
| mediadata | lockd, go there... thx... | 08:56 |
| ugur | kevin__: It may be because it requires you to agree on something which you dont see in synaptic but you may see in apt-get | 08:56 |
| DigitalKiwi | lol atom server... | 08:56 |
| dondako | sziasztok | 08:57 |
| kbp | PsyberS: the need is a home server to store files, and possible, web server as well | 08:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | goodnight: i don't think its beta anymore, or it probably wouldn't have been used in the release | 08:57 |
| kevin__ | ugur, hmm weird, i had run out of diskspace so couldn't complete the install/download of requried packages...but ocne i freed upp enough space and finished...it worked | 08:57 |
| kevin__ | ugur, so much for failing gracefully huh? thanks for the help | 08:57 |
| ugur | kevin__: fine. Failure is the way to understanding | 08:57 |
| PsyberS | kbp: to be honest, most atom devices im aware of are clients and not servers, if you insist on using an atom i would highly recommend the multi-core | 08:57 |
| dr3mro | hey guys i did hear that rhythmbox is ceased development and no new features any more does that mean it will not be part of next ubuntu ?? | 08:58 |
| kevin__ | ugur, understaning a failure is the way to understanding | 08:58 |
| PsyberS | dr3mro: no need to repeat the same message over and over | 08:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | dr3mro: dunno... who cares, there's plenty of good music apps | 08:58 |
| kevin__ | ugur, ubuntu sometimes makes this hard | 08:58 |
| dr3mro | IndyGunFreak, can you plz point me to one so i can try | 08:58 |
| DigitalKiwi | mpd + ncmpcpp | 08:59 |
| dryg | xmms | 08:59 |
| DigitalKiwi | audacious > xmms | 08:59 |
| dryg | ;[ | 08:59 |
| kbp | PsyberS: I decided to go with atom because of its 60W power consumption. It beats all micro-atx/atx system in this field :) | 08:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | dr3mro: banshee, amarok, audacious, songbird.. those are 4 that immediately come to mind | 08:59 |
| Dr_Willis | when in doubt - check the package manager.. its amazing the things you find in there | 08:59 |
| dondako | hi I have a problem. ubuntu 9.10. wifi signal very low. wifi type: Tp-Link TL-WN422G. Idea? | 08:59 |
| secret901 | My desktop is just a black screen. I tried changing my desktop background but the desktop image stays the same. | 08:59 |
| assoguerozen_sx | guys, u know how to resolve the winspool.drv error in wine (takes alot to start wine)? | 09:00 |
| lockd | dr3mro: songbird seems to be the best if you're looking to replace rhythmbox | 09:00 |
| dr3mro | banshee >>mono . amarok >>kde audacoius >>no liberary - songbird >>>memory hug | 09:00 |
| Dr_Willis | secret901: ive seen some issues where the wallpaper dident change. till i logged out/in.. not sure why. some service crashed/restarted I think | 09:00 |
| Rhubarb_ | kbp, my server is currently a crusoe 800MHz low power unit, it's fine for personal webserver / file sharing / print server | 09:00 |
| DigitalKiwi | dr3mro: http://omploader.org/vMjgyag lower left is ncmpcpp, it's awesome assuming you like cli stuff... | 09:00 |
| zanden2 | i've a certain package in two ubuntu repositories , the first one ubuntu universe , the second from ppa , how to force apt-get install to install the package from ppa repository ? | 09:01 |
| secret901 | Dr_Willis: When I log out, I do see my desktop background, but it disappears once I log in again. | 09:01 |
| lockd | dr3mro: audacious no library? it uses WAY more than libc | 09:01 |
| Dr_Willis | secret901: thats... weird.. Unless you got some compiz settings changeing it. | 09:01 |
| secret901 | Dr_Willis: I upgraded to 9.10 from 9.04 and didn't change any Compiz setting. | 09:02 |
| kbp | Rhubarb_: how much power does it need? (i.e. the psu) | 09:02 |
| MasterofPuppets | Hey guys, if I'm using Ubuntu right now and I want to make my system boot from a windows disk, how do I do that? | 09:02 |
| Rhubarb_ | kbp, I'm not sure, it's an old laptop, I'd guess at 20W or less | 09:02 |
| === Swish[\] is now known as Swish | ||
| secret901 | MasterofPuppets: you have a separate partition containing your Windows installation? | 09:02 |
| spO | are any o you using deluge ? it doesn't work after install karmic | 09:03 |
| cooter | can anyone help me out with getting my wirless to work on an hp laptop | 09:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | cooter: whats the chipset on the device? | 09:04 |
| secret901 | cooter: does Ubuntu recognize the device? | 09:04 |
| psinetic | IndyGunFreak, up and running. | 09:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: great... see if you can install 9.10 | 09:04 |
| Lunar- | c | 09:04 |
| psinetic | already did | 09:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | oh.. damn that was fast. | 09:05 |
| secret901 | After I upgraded to Karmic Koala, my desktop background is just a black screen. I tried changing it but don't see any difference. | 09:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: now i'm curious why gparted wouldn't format the drive | 09:05 |
| cooter | it recognized it when i installed ubuntu and it showed the available networks but when i restarted the computer this morning it didnt even recognize that it had a wireless chip installed | 09:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | but it doesn't really matter at this point | 09:05 |
| psinetic | yeah...so now we need to make a solution for this problem. it's obvious i'm not the only one that this has happened to. so, for some reason whatever it is, the upgrade crashed in the middle of it. it doesn't matter why it crashed, fact is, it did, and it almost wrecked the hard drive in the process. | 09:06 |
| secret901 | cooter: is there a button on your laptop that enable/disables the wireless? | 09:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: well, obviouisly something happened during the upgrade.. it could have still been hardware related(ie, server failed, you or the server lost its connection etc.) | 09:06 |
| secret901 | cooter: is your wireless light on? | 09:06 |
| lockd | psinetic: it does matter why it crashed otherwise there's no way to fix it yeah | 09:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | again, way to many variables to try and just say, "Oh, it was the upgraders fault" | 09:07 |
| joaopinto | psinetic, a software install will not affect your hardware integrity, if there is something wrong with your hard disk, it is not related to the install, it was just exposed during the install | 09:07 |
| psinetic | IndyGunFreak, lockd, no, what i mean is, the way i fixed it was with a windows cd formatting the partition | 09:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: and i've yet to see someone w/ your problem, other than you. | 09:07 |
| psinetic | that other guy earlier said he had the same problem and had to do the same thing | 09:07 |
| bjarni | hi | 09:07 |
| secret901 | My desktop background is just a black screen and I can't change it. | 09:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: there were probably other options... but you got it worked out, drink a milkshake and relax | 09:08 |
| * psinetic goes and grabs a milkshake and sits back to watch the simpsons | 09:08 | |
| psinetic | :D | 09:08 |
| bjarni | will my day be ruined if I upgrade 9.04 to 9.10? | 09:08 |
| * IndyGunFreak is watching Married w/ Children | 09:08 | |
| Dr_Willis | secret901: see if it works for a newly made user.. every so often i just bite the bullet and totally clean out all my gnome settings and start from stratch. | 09:08 |
| IndyGunFreak | bjarni: not just your day, your next few days | 09:08 |
| psinetic | bjarni, just don't quit the install midway through | 09:08 |
| psinetic | LOL | 09:08 |
| cooter | i have been working on this for a couple of days and the pressure switch is pressed it wont work to turn the wireless back on so when i got the driver activated again i disconnected the switch in the on position and it was working but know it doesnt even recognize there is a driver installed | 09:08 |
| Dr_Willis | bjarni: your mileage may vary. :) | 09:08 |
| lockd | I used to have to nuke the partition table before Anaconda would install properly, but I've never seen anything like that in Ubuntu/Debinstall | 09:08 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: lmao.. that should realy go w/o saying | 09:09 |
| secret901 | Dr_Willis: I just changed my compiz settings to none | 09:09 |
| IndyGunFreak | lockd: me either, but go figure... | 09:09 |
| psinetic | *sigh* that was really..REALLY annoying | 09:09 |
| bjarni | im running at turtle speed these days - cant make that much difference | 09:09 |
| secret901 | Dr_Willis: and my background appears | 09:09 |
| psinetic | ok so i give it 30 minutes before my next problem comes up | 09:09 |
| Dr_Willis | secret901: compiz hjas some feature to do wallpaper. but i never use it. | 09:09 |
| bjarni | here goes.... | 09:09 |
| natschil | I'm getting an invalid signature error for jaunty security, how can I fix this? | 09:10 |
| PsyberS | secret901: oh ya, i had that problem in jaunty and forgot how i solved it :) | 09:10 |
| secret901 | PsyberS: does it have to do with Compiz? | 09:10 |
| PsyberS | secret901: you cant let compiz manage the desktop wallpaper and nautilus | 09:10 |
| secret901 | Dr_Willis: I don't want to disable Compiz, but it seems to be my solution right now | 09:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: lol, 30min? | 09:10 |
| PsyberS | secret901: theres a setting in compiz to do wallpapers, disable that | 09:11 |
| Dr_Willis | secret901: clean out all the old settings. or explore compiz and find the setting | 09:11 |
| psinetic | IndyGunFreak, you have no idea how many bugs and problems i've run into back to back on ubuntu. | 09:11 |
| PsyberS | secret901: the plugin 'Wallpaper' | 09:11 |
| Dr_Willis | I found a neat Compiz setting that puts ROOT: in the title of any windoes running with root access :) by exploring compiz | 09:11 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: no disrespect, are they actual bugs and problems, or user malfunctions?.. cuz honestly, i've not had major problems w/ ubuntu, since probably 6.10 | 09:11 |
| secret901 | PsyberS: how do I change my Compiz settings? I only disabled it via Appearance | 09:12 |
| Dr_Willis | IndyGunFreak: I see lots of PEBKAC also :) | 09:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dr_Willis: exactly.. :) | 09:12 |
| Dr_Willis | !ccsm | secret901 | 09:12 |
| ubottu | secret901: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 09:12 |
| PsyberS | secret901: i installed simple-ccsm | 09:12 |
| sl1ck | how do I KILL upstart ? | 09:12 |
| Dr_Willis | sl1ck: err.. why doyou even think you need to do that? | 09:12 |
| psinetic | IndyGunFreak, well maybe it is user malfunctions, but i just see them as problems that just won't go away >_> | 09:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | i did have a wireless issue for about 4mo in 8.04, but i think thats cuz the device was to new.. it came around in 8.10 | 09:13 |
| peterP | I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 server on an USB stick, attached the stick to an old PC and booted it. Grub loads without problems, but than nothing (black screen) happens and the system just restarts after a couple of minutes. the normal 9.10 desktop install works fine this way. how do I find the problem? | 09:13 |
| sl1ck | Dr_Willis: err.. why do you think I don't want to? | 09:13 |
| lockd | sl1ck: upstart is INIT.. you do NOT want to kill that | 09:13 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: well, what problem doesn't go away? | 09:13 |
| Dr_Willis | sl1ck: because upstart handles all the init processes - its replacing the sysv system. its not somthing you just start/stop | 09:13 |
| PsyberS | secret901: use 'compizconfig-settings-manager', search for 'wallpaper' and make sure its unchecked | 09:13 |
| lockd | sl1ck: start with init=/bin/sh :P | 09:13 |
| secret901 | PsyberS: I called compiz-manager and it crashed on me | 09:13 |
| sl1ck | lockd: it wont allow me to kill other pids | 09:14 |
| psinetic | IndyGunFreak, well i'll have to see how it goes in karmic, but in jaunty i had at least three problems that no one knew how to fix. i was on the irc for a week asking for help and no one knew | 09:14 |
| sl1ck | how do I kill random pids ? | 09:14 |
| PsyberS | i recently upgraded to karmic, and i have a broken ankle... what package do i remove to fix it? | 09:14 |
| sl1ck | it resurrects them | 09:14 |
| juniecho | hi, i'm on 9.10 now, can't get any usb mice to work. thumbdrives are working fine, only mice are causing trouble. what's the problem? | 09:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | psinetic: well what was one of those problems?.. just curious | 09:14 |
| Dr_Willis | sl1ck: what are you trying to kill exactly? | 09:14 |
| psinetic | IndyGunFreak, for example: i could go into the places menu and click on one of the links at the top column (there are three columns total, the top one though) and it would up and play a dvd if i had one in, and if i dind't have one in, it wouldn't do anything. | 09:14 |
| sl1ck | Dr_Willis: for example wpa_supplicant or avahi just to name a few | 09:15 |
| === psinetic is now known as MasterJimmy | ||
| Dr_Willis | sl1ck: to stop services you should be using the proper command to stop them. not just killing the pid. | 09:15 |
| Rhubarb_ | juniecho, that's weird, try running: sudo lsusb which should tell you what ubuntu sees connected to your usb ports | 09:15 |
| Dr_Willis | sl1ck: 'sudo service SeRVICENAME stop' | 09:15 |
| lockd | sl1ck: wpa_supplicant isn't being started by init directly, it's being started by NetworkManager | 09:15 |
| PsyberS | anyone know why i have to 'renice +19 dhclient' in order to connect to encrypted wifi networks? | 09:15 |
| MasterJimmy | IndyGunFreak, changed my nick from Psinetic to MasterJimmy | 09:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | MasterJimmy: lol, well, thats a first i heard on that one. | 09:15 |
| MasterJimmy | IndyGunFreak, yeah, no one knew how to fix it | 09:15 |
| sl1ck | lockd: if I kill NetworkManager upstart restarts it again | 09:16 |
| joaopinto | PsyberS, no idea, but you should file a bug report about that | 09:16 |
| MasterJimmy | IndyGunFreak, also another problem: | 09:16 |
| lockd | sl1ck: sudo service NetworkManager stop | 09:16 |
| lockd | sl1ck: err, sudo service network-manager stop | 09:16 |
| cooter | indy: you got any ideas on the wireless driver issue? | 09:16 |
| IndyGunFreak | MasterJimmy: again, no disrespect, but when you have a problem that nobody else has, and it is an unknown problem to this channel or forum, its usually the one variable this channel can't predict..(i'll let you figure out the answer) | 09:16 |
| MasterJimmy | IndyGunFreak, my system wouldn't get rid of the system wide proxy settings. it always tried to connect to tor. even after i took it off and applied system wide | 09:16 |
| sl1ck | ouch...what happened to the good ol' kill/pkill stuff ... | 09:17 |
| juniecho | Rhubarb_, ubuntu seems to recognize my mice. it's in the list. | 09:17 |
| raven_ | is there any boot-system that provides netboot options also to systems they can't do netboot itself? | 09:17 |
| Dr_Willis | raven_: ive seen netbook 'cd' and 'floppies' that sort of jumpstart non net-bootable machines | 09:17 |
| lockd | sl1ck: again like Dr_Willis said you should use the service manager or /etc/init.d/service-name stop | 09:18 |
| joaopinto | MasterJimmy, that is not a system problem, is a user proble, you were the one setting it up to use a proxy | 09:18 |
| MasterofPuppets | Hey guys, if I'm using Ubuntu right now and I want to make my system boot from a Vista disk, how do I do that? | 09:18 |
| Dr_Willis | init.d/whatever may NOT be the proper way any more in 9.10 :) use the 'service' command :) | 09:18 |
| raven_ | Dr_Willis, netbook?? | 09:18 |
| sl1ck | this upstart thingy is one persnickety little ... | 09:18 |
| secret901 | MasterofPuppets: You want to reboot the computer and log onto Vista? | 09:18 |
| MasterJimmy | IndyGunFreak, haha, yeah i know what you mean. i'm quite sure alot of these problems i bring on myself, but at least if i report them as a possible problem no matter how bizar, someone should be able to help, and if not, as a community sit down and figure it out for the next guy who comes along witht he same problem. | 09:18 |
| joaopinto | MasterJimmy, sudo os-prober && sudo apt-get grub-update | 09:18 |
| sl1ck | fine, fine | 09:18 |
| TheFunkbomb | could someone help me permanently mount a partition using fstab? | 09:18 |
| Rhubarb_ | juniecho, I don't have much experience with x input devices (unless it's a wiimote) :s | 09:18 |
| cooter | anyone know anything about wireless drivers? | 09:18 |
| chazco | On Ubuntu 9.04 you could watch DVB by using totem-xine - but this isn't possible on 9.10 (regression again?). Any fix? Using me-tv currently but it's a bit buggy... | 09:18 |
| sl1ck | thanks anyways | 09:18 |
| Dr_Willis | raven_: my aao netbook can netboot :) | 09:18 |
| lockd | Dr_Willis: well I was saying /etc/init.d/ was the proper way with sysv | 09:18 |
| Caroline83 | hello, good morning | 09:18 |
| MasterJimmy | joaopinto, what's the first one do? | 09:19 |
| IndyGunFreak | MasterJimmy: thats just not feasible | 09:19 |
| Caroline83 | May I please ask for help? | 09:19 |
| Dr_Willis | lockd: yep. and now 9.10 is a bit of a mixture of the 2. perhaps the next release will be all upstart. | 09:19 |
| joaopinto | MasterJimmy, it will attempt to detected other OSes boots | 09:19 |
| MasterofPuppets | secret901: When I reboot, I'd like the system to boot from the DVD instead so that I can install it | 09:19 |
| MasterJimmy | !ask | Caroline83 | 09:19 |
| ubottu | Caroline83: 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. :-) | 09:19 |
| raven_ | Dr_Willis, do you remember which system this can do? what you described is something i am looking for | 09:19 |
| Caroline83 | Thanks ubottu, will do | 09:19 |
| MasterJimmy | joaopinto, oh, well the problem is solved now :) | 09:19 |
| TheFunkbomb | lol | 09:19 |
| secret901 | MasterofPuppets: What is it currently doing? | 09:19 |
| lockd | Dr_Willis: isn't upstart a drop-in replacement for init? or are there some quirks | 09:20 |
| raik | dsl internet not connecting in 9.10 after upgrade? | 09:20 |
| Dr_Willis | raven_: not really. I just watch distrowatch and saw it on there. I think the edubuntu disrto may of had some extras like tha talso | 09:20 |
| secret901 | MasterofPuppets: does it currently boot straight into Ubuntu? | 09:20 |
| MasterofPuppets | secret901: Yeah, straight into Karmic | 09:20 |
| assoguerozen_sx | guys, u know how to resolve the winspool.drv error in wine (takes alot to start wine)? | 09:20 |
| Dr_Willis | lockd: thers all kinds of quirks. :) one of which is people trying to use the sysv commands. | 09:20 |

| MasterofPuppets | secret901: How does one do this? :P | 09:21 |
| joaopinto | alexb92, sudo dpkg -i *.deb, but be carefull, make sure you dont install incompatible packages | 09:21 |
| zcat[1] | alexb92: dpkg -i *.deb | 09:22 |
| secret901 | MasterofPuppets: when you reboot your computer, you can typically go into the BIOS settings by pressing F2 | 09:22 |
| zcat[1] | heh | 09:22 |
| TheFunkbomb | cooter, plug in with an ethernet cable and type sudo apt-get update | 09:22 |
| Dr_Willis | alexb92: last i did a bulk install like that.. a lot of the packages were also older versions/extras/redunand... to be carefull | 09:22 |
| alexb92 | what goes in place of the asterisk? | 09:22 |
| Dr_Willis | alexb92: * is a wildcard. :) bash basics | 09:22 |

| mrfelton | Since upgrading to Karmic the other day, my mouse has been acting up a little. It seems to freeze for about half a second quite freequently. Generally, it is when I do something like closing a tab in firefox (ctrl+w), or switching virtual desktop using a hot key (ctrl+1/2/3/4). I'd say that it almost always involves using the ctrl key... | 09:22 |
| alexb92 | yeah its all good, ive just backed up my old ubuntu packages after that install screwed up | 09:22 |
| TheFunkbomb | it always works for me | 09:22 |
| Dr_Willis | with that many packages alexb92 * may not work. | 09:22 |
| lockd | the only dir I have with over 2500 packages is the APT cache | 09:23 |
| mrfelton | is this known about? | 09:23 |
| alexb92 | so im trying to restore things slowly | 09:23 |
| secret901 | MasterofPuppets: your computer should briefly display a message like "Press F2 to enter BIOS" on bootup | 09:23 |
| mrfelton | anything I can do? | 09:23 |
| Dr_Willis | alexb92: theres a limit to the #/size of a command line. | 09:23 |

| MasterofPuppets | secret901: Oh, alright, sounds good :) | 09:23 |
| lockd | alexb92: it's probably better to reinstall | 09:23 |
| chazco | mrfelton - I've noticed that with cut/copy/paste... using ctrl... interesting | 09:23 |
| alexb92 | dr_wilis: sorry but would u be able to give me an example of what to type into terminal, im kinda a noob at all this | 09:23 |
| Dr_Willis | alexb92: if the packages are in the /var/cache/apt directory and you try to reinstall the package. it should use the version allready downloaded and not redownload them | 09:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | MasterJimmy: lol, you can keep the blow up doll... no problem, glad its resolved | 09:23 |

| alexb92 | joaopinto: even if they worked fine in 9.04? | 09:25 |

| IndyGunFreak | infidx: which nvidia card | 09:31 |
| infidx | IndyGunFreak did it work out of the box | 09:31 |
| Dr_Willis | infidx: or they activate both in clone mode by default. | 09:31 |

| Dr_Willis | Install nvidia drivers.. run nvidia-settings tool.. activate both monitors/twinview.. restart X server. :) | 09:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | infidx: the biggest problem i had, was saving the settings to xorg.conf, because it doesn't exist in 9.10 anymore, so i took a xorg.conf from my 9.04 install, plugged it in, and nvidia-settings saved the settings just fine.. | 09:32 |
| secret901 | cooter: is your wireless card a physical card that you can physically disconnect from your laptop? | 09:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | other than that, it worked fine | 09:33 |
| Dr_Willis | IndyGunFreak: yea. I had a backup of my old xorg.conf i used. | 09:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dr_Willis: yeah,t hat was the only annoyance i had w/ it | 09:33 |
| cooter | secret901: yes theres a card underneath the cover on the bottom of my laptop that has two wires on it | 09:33 |
| Dr_Willis | the nvidia-settingds tool is getting a little old.. it needs a refresh :) | 09:33 |
| x3464 | anybody else notice that "favicons" are broken in the "Bookmarks Toolbar" in Firefox? | 09:33 |
| Caroline83 | joapinto: when i type startx, i get "fatal server error, no screens found" | 09:34 |
| Severite | IndyGunFreak didn't realize it would self install, I was trying to figure out the terminal commands, Im installing htem now, I will let you know if it is successful | 09:34 |
| infidx | lockd arent all nvidia drivers proprietary? are you saying that installing them will mess things up? | 09:34 |
| Dr_Willis | infidx: you may want to save my xorg.conf as an example in case you need to copy a fuller xorg.conf to your system (url follows) | 09:34 |
| Dhuski | What is a good alternative to WinSCP for Ubuntu? | 09:34 |
| Dr_Willis | pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 09:34 |
| Dr_Willis | http://pastebin.com/f27237d80 | 09:34 |
| IndyGunFreak | Severite: thanks.. keep in mind, you'll have to restart | 09:34 |
| secret901 | cooter: how old is your laptop? | 09:34 |
| alexb92 | oh guys interesting thing, i installed ubuntu to a separate hard drive on my computer, and grub has taken over as the default bootloader for all the hard drives on my computer | 09:34 |
| Severite | I suspected as much | 09:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Dhuski: you can use the normal gnome file manager to access ssh/sftp systems | 09:34 |
| robin0800 | cooter: you may have to press the wireless switch for a while to turn the card on | 09:34 |
| alexb92 | is there a way to change this back ? | 09:34 |
| Dhuski | Dr_Willis, k thanks. | 09:35 |
| lockd | infidx: well, the open source nvidia drivers don't support 3D, and are little more than glorified VGA adapters | 09:35 |
| x3464 | anybody else notice that "favicons" are broken in the "Bookmarks Toolbar" in Firefox? | 09:35 |
| cooter | secret901: im not sure its a compaq 6515b. i bought it off a friend if i had to guess its about a 2005 or 2006 | 09:35 |
| Pumba | Hey where can I find stuff out about OSPF? | 09:36 |
| lockd | infidx: apparently Dr_Willis got twinview working fine with the proprietary drivers though | 09:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | looks like the morning crowd is showing up. | 09:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 09:36 |
| Pumba | Got a networking exam Monday | 09:36 |
| Pumba | @IndyGunFreak hey I like guns too! | 09:36 |
| Hajuu | facebook? | 09:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | Pumba: lol | 09:37 |
| secret901 | cooter: and in order to have wireless capabilities, you have to use a separate card, right? do you know the model of your wireless card? it should say so on the card | 09:37 |
| lockd | Pumba: if you don't have a thick tome or notes with all the routing protocols described, then I say you probably have put off studying | 09:37 |
| Caroline83 | joaopinto: when i type startx, i get "fatal server error, no screens found" | 09:37 |
| x3464 | Can someone with Karmic please confirm that there are no favicons in the "Bookmarks Toolbar" within Firefox? | 09:37 |
| cooter | secret901: its a broadcom bcm4311 | 09:38 |
| severity1 | x3464, icons working fine inside bookmarks | 09:38 |
| Pumba | @lockd not really, just a few specific problems with no answers in course notes. I'm engineering, had a few big ass assignments right at the end of term so couldn't start studying till later than I wanted | 09:38 |
| x3464 | severity1: I mean in the "Bookmarks Toolbar". | 09:39 |
| amerinese | Anyone ever run into problems with Swiftfox on Ubuntu? Don't see much information on it out there. | 09:39 |
| weili | Hi, could somebody help me? I updated Ubuntu yesterday and can't get Empathy to work with gmx-jabber. I tried lots of different settings, but none of them works and even tried reinstalling empathy and its libraries | 09:39 |
| Scorpion_on | join #ubuntu-ru | 09:39 |
| secret901 | cooter: so the card is connected to the laptop when you booted up Ubuntu? | 09:39 |
| x3464 | severity1: Do you have a "dinosaur head" icon beside the "Getting Started" button? | 09:39 |
| lockd | Pumba: all I know of is Wikipedia and the RFCs. Which can be a nightmare to comprehend | 09:39 |
| cooter | secret901: yes | 09:39 |
| lockd | Pumba: and, I have been there | 09:40 |
| robin0800 | amerinese: the beta? chrome is running fine here | 09:40 |
| severity1 | x3464, yep the zilla icon | 09:40 |
| lockd | chromium works fine for me, except for some plugin crashes | 09:40 |
| secret901 | cooter: are there lights on the card? are they on? | 09:40 |
| cooter | secret901: no lights on the card | 09:40 |
| amerinese | robin0800: I didn't know there was a beta version. Wanted to know if it was really faster than FF and stable. But not much in a quick Google search. | 09:41 |
| Pumba | @lockd I know it's a bitch. Thanks anyway! | 09:41 |
| C-S-B | robin0800, you running chrome or chromium? | 09:41 |
| secret901 | cooter: so how do you know whether it's working? | 09:41 |
| rahmu | just upgraded to karmic, sound has gone off. help anyone ? | 09:41 |
| robin0800 | cooter: lights on laptop? | 09:41 |
| juniecho | hi, usb mice are not working even after I removed "blacklist usbmouse" from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf. mice are recognized correctly to ubuntu, can see their presence as when i type lsusb there are my mice on the list, and i can see red light coming in but it won't move. touchpad is working fine. what is the problem? | 09:41 |
| apuokas | try increasing the sound | 09:41 |
| apuokas | the volume | 09:41 |
| cooter | it was working last night when i reinstalled ubuntu | 09:41 |
| robin0800 | C-S-B: crome .....................google | 09:42 |
| amerinese | Oh, no Swiftfox is an optimized compile of Firefox. | 09:42 |
| cooter | robin0800: yes there is a light on the laptop but its not on | 09:42 |
| ydur | hi there! | 09:42 |
| C-S-B | robin0800, is it running better than chromium? | 09:42 |
| secret901 | cooter: where is this light? | 09:42 |
| lockd | juniecho: usbhid has replaced those devices | 09:42 |
| cooter | secret901: to the left of the mouse pad | 09:42 |
| robin0800 | cooter: hold wireless switch till it lights | 09:43 |
| lockd | juniecho: err, replaced those drivers | 09:43 |
| pradeep | is there no gui for ubuntu server jaunty?? | 09:43 |
| secret901 | cooter: what is the label for this light? | 09:43 |
| ydur | i have a question: is there an alternative to torrents for downloading some good music? | 09:43 |
| x3464 | severity1: Did you do a fresh install of Karmic or upgrade? | 09:43 |
| juniecho | lockd, so is it better to leave those(usbmouse, usbkeybd) drivers blacklists? | 09:43 |
| cooter | secret901: a wireless icon | 09:43 |
| weili | Hi, could somebody help me? I updated Ubuntu yesterday and can't get Empathy to work with gmx-jabber. I tried lots of different settings, but none of them works and even tried reinstalling empathy and its libraries | 09:43 |
| C-S-B | pradeep, no, why would you want one? | 09:43 |
| robin0800 | C-S-B: yes very well no crashes at all | 09:43 |
| raik | dsl connection failing after upgrade to 9.10? | 09:43 |
| lockd | juniecho: probably. does the system have old PS/2 ports? | 09:43 |
| secret901 | cooter: and there is a switch that can make that light go on and off? | 09:43 |
| th1 | pradeep, the whole point of server is to save resources by omitting the guy | 09:43 |
| th1 | s/guy/gui/ | 09:43 |
| C-S-B | robin0800, does it do flash and java | 09:44 |
| lockd | juniecho: and/or does it work with another distro? | 09:44 |
| pradeep | th1:I know. I am using it for the first time so | 09:44 |
| severity1 | x3464, a fresh install | 09:44 |
| juniecho | lockd, no. only usb. but either way(usbmouse blacklisted or not) it won't move. it worked fine with 9.04. | 09:44 |
| lockd | C-S-B: flash, yes, java plugin is kind of iffy | 09:44 |
| robin0800 | C-S-B: yes flash java don't know | 09:44 |
| Pumba | @ydur have you tried Jamendo or some of the creative commons licensed music? | 09:44 |
| lockd | juniecho: okay, that tells me it's probably HAL configuration | 09:44 |
| th1 | pradeep, if you really want to have a gui you can install one of the desktops on your server effectively "upgrading" to xubuntu or ubuntu desktop | 09:44 |
| cooter | secret901: yes but i disconnected it last night after i got it working and the computer recognized the driver but now i dont even get the option to turn it off and on from network connections | 09:45 |
| ydur | Pumba no never..i'll take a look | 09:45 |
| pradeep | th1: how do i do that | 09:45 |
| juniecho | lockd, oh thanks, but i'm not too familiar with ubuntu so where should i start? | 09:45 |
| ydur | Pumba what's it about? | 09:45 |
| IndyGunFreak | Severite: did it work? | 09:45 |
| Pumba | @ydur it's pretty sweet aye, mostly techno and electronica | 09:45 |
| secret901 | cooter: so this swich is not part of your laptop or your wireless card? | 09:45 |
| lockd | juniecho: start with udevadm monitor, pull and replug the mouse, and pastebin the results | 09:45 |
| Severite | IndyGunFreak: reinstalling the packages corrected it, thank you. Any idea why it didn't detect/slash install them? | 09:46 |
| Pumba | @ydur basically music put out by artists with a creative commons license | 09:46 |
| ydur | Pumba mm..i need something more "universal".. | 09:46 |
| IndyGunFreak | Severite: because they are restricted apparently... | 09:46 |
| Pumba | @ydur so indy stuff | 09:46 |
| th1 | pradeep, e.g | 09:46 |
| pradeep | th1: is it sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 09:46 |
| cooter | yes it is a part of the laptop i disonnected the ribbon under neath the keyboard | 09:46 |
| MasterofPuppets | Hi again all... how do I get to the grub menu exactly? Hitting escape on startup isn't doing anything and I can't edit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 09:46 |
| Pumba | @ydur how do you mean? What instruments/genres | 09:46 |
| th1 | pradeep, yes but that will install the full gnome desktop and all programs that go with it.. you may want something more lightweight for a server | 09:47 |
| juniecho | lockd, can you be a bit more... detail? udevadm says 'missing or unknown command' | 09:47 |
| ydur | Pumba yes..all kind of genres | 09:47 |
| robin0800 | MasterofPuppets: its shift on grub 2 | 09:47 |
| Severite | How would I have done it without them preinstalled on the LIVEcd? | 09:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | MasterofPuppets: well, menu.list, doesn't exist anymore w/ grub2 | 09:47 |
| matahari | hi guys | 09:47 |
| th1 | pradeep, one could be "sudo aptitude install -R xubuntu-desktop" | 09:47 |
| pradeep | th1: so what do i do | 09:47 |
| th1 | pradeep, -R meaning "don't install recommended packages only required ones" | 09:47 |
| ydur | Pumba i used to run amule | 09:47 |
| th1 | pradeep, that keeps it light weight | 09:47 |
| Dr_Willis | grub2 likes to hide the menu when you dont want it to.. :) | 09:47 |
| juniecho | lockd, i did udevadm monitor | 09:47 |
| pradeep | th1: ok | 09:47 |
| ydur | Pumba now i don't have fastweb anymore | 09:47 |
| MasterofPuppets | robin0800: Ah, shift is the key to be pressing? K | 09:47 |
| juniecho | lockd: is this right? | 09:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | Severite: you'd ahve either had to get a wired connection, or download them in some other way... thank broadcom for being jackasses, not Linux | 09:47 |
| MasterofPuppets | IndyGunFreak: Any equivalent file? | 09:47 |
| Pumba | @ydur it has that, basically anything you can think of | 09:47 |
| Pumba | @ydur, just google it and check it out! | 09:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | MasterofPuppets: grub.conf i think, but i have no idea how to edit it. | 09:48 |
| lockd | juniecho: err, that's odd, you should have at least gotten a suggestion to install a certain package | 09:48 |
| matahari | i am looking for a way to setup an ecnrypted directory where 2 users can write to. All files that the users write to that directory shall be read-and writeable by both users. has someone of you an idea how to solve that? is that possible with ecryptfs? Thanks in advance! | 09:48 |
| ydur | Pumba ok i'll have a look | 09:48 |
| MasterofPuppets | IndyGunFreak: I'll just try restarting and hitting shift, thanks @ thanks at robin0800! :) | 09:48 |
| Dr_Willis | MasterofPuppets: if using gub2 you really want to edit the proper grub2 config files and rerun update-grub | 09:48 |
| ydur | Pumba thx | 09:48 |
| Padron_Toni | Hi everybody! As I didn't find the MINIMAL CD on ubuntu.com, I searched it "manually" and found this: | 09:48 |
| Padron_Toni | http://www.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso | 09:48 |
| Padron_Toni | Is it reliable? | 09:48 |
| robin0800 | IndyGunFreak: /etc/default/grub | 09:48 |
| FloodBot2 | Padron_Toni: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:48 |
| secret901 | MasterofPuppets: were you able to get into the BIOS settings? | 09:48 |
| juniecho | lockd, sorry it was already installed, i'll pastebin now | 09:48 |
| Dr_Willis | /etc/default/grub | 09:48 |
| apuokas | hello, anybody could help with font and flash problems in firefox? | 09:48 |
| MasterofPuppets | secret901: I don't think so | 09:48 |
| Pumba | @ydur no probs, hopefully it's what you're looking for | 09:49 |
| Dr_Willis | #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 | 09:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Note its 'commented' out. not just set to 0 | 09:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | robin0800: i know that, but i don't think you can edit it easily like youc oudl w/ menu.lst | 09:49 |
| courpse | Humm, my sendmail is broked. | 09:49 |
| Dr_Willis | that should alaways force the menu to show. | 09:49 |
| secret901 | MasterofPuppets: how did you install Ubuntu anyhow? | 09:49 |
| th1 | courpse, why are you using sendmail? | 09:49 |
| juniecho | lockd, here you go http://paste.ubuntu.com/305748/ | 09:49 |
| robin0800 | IndyGunFreak: well i can | 09:49 |
| courpse | Um, why not? | 09:49 |
| dvrvm | good morning. just upgraded my server to karmic, now the system won't boot because the file system doesn't mount anymore... known problem? | 09:49 |
| MasterofPuppets | secret901: Downloaded the karmic image from the main site and installed | 09:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | robin0800: hmm, maybe its something i'm doing.. i've not really messed much w/ it | 09:49 |
| th1 | courpse, because it's so 80's? ;) | 09:49 |
| lockd | juniecho: it seems to be provided by package 'udev', which if you don't have that's scary | 09:50 |
| courpse | Usually works fine. | 09:50 |
| robin0800 | IndyGunFreak: it uses uuid's | 09:50 |
| th1 | courpse, but it's a monster to set up and maintain | 09:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | hmm | 09:50 |
| secret901 | cooter: I'm not sure how to help you. I think you should get that wireless light working again and see if Ubuntu would recognize the card again. | 09:50 |
| courpse | Well i have my own mail server, well at least did tell sending out going msgs failed, ;/ | 09:51 |
| juniecho | lockd, i tried apt-get install udev and it reports that udev is installed and latest version. | 09:51 |
| Severite | Is there a good place to read up on how to install various things, and otherwise learn the ropes for this OS? My last foray was xandros, and I ended up just giving up on it. | 09:51 |
| courpse | Now i cant send out with anyting it seems. | 09:51 |
| * MasterofPuppets is going to go try shift | 09:51 | |
| lockd | juniecho: then I'm not sure why udevadm would be missing | 09:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Severite: theres's 100's of sites for learning linux, and ubuntu basics. :) depends on where you want to start. | 09:51 |
| Dr_Willis | !training | 09:51 |
| ubottu | documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com | 09:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | Severite: lots of sights. | 09:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Severite: theres the gnome docs for starters | 09:51 |
| jimbeam12 | anyone use lm-sensors | 09:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | Severite: google "Ubuntu guide" or "ubuntu pocket guide".. something like that... its a PDF that is useful... if you can't find it, i can email it to you | 09:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Severite: since 9.10 just came out - some guides/docs might be a little out of date also. but the core fundamentals still apply | 09:52 |
| smegzor | What happened to freecell in 9.10? Its completely missing! My wife is mad at me for losing her favourite game :O | 09:52 |
| lockd | juniecho: but, did you do a clean install or an upgrade? | 09:52 |
| juniecho | lockd, udevadm was not missing. sorry i just made a mistake by not trying 'udevadm monitor'. i just did 'udevadm' and it just required 'monitor' | 09:52 |
| Dr_Willis | smegzor: instgall pysol :) it has 2000+ solitare variants | 09:52 |
| Severite | Ok, thank you, I will go see if I can track it down | 09:53 |
| th1 | smegzor, you're right it's missing! | 09:53 |
| juniecho | locked, so i did 'udevadm monitor', and plugged out & in the mouse and it gave me this : http://paste.ubuntu.com/305748/ | 09:53 |
| lockd | pysol is gone! | 09:53 |
| th1 | smegzor, maybe you can install it from the old version | 09:53 |
| juniecho | locked: sorry i gave you confusion | 09:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Severite: check the ubuntu links at -> http://delicious.com also | 09:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | Severite: http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html | 09:53 |
| Dr_Willis | lockd: its pysol-ng now i think. | 09:53 |
| lockd | well I mean it's not in apt | 09:54 |
| Dr_Willis | lockd: i thinki had to get it from the web site last time also. been a while | 09:54 |
| smegzor | th1: I hope so or I'm in a lot of trouble! | 09:54 |
| dariuzas | maybe enybody know how to fix internet speed on ubuntu 9.10 ? | 09:54 |
| mesa | http://www.caglecartoons.com/images/preview/%7Bcc6d7125-7648-46e8-955d-ffcca926dce2%7D.gif | 09:54 |
| robin0800 | Severite: the built in help is quite good IMHO | 09:54 |
| mesa | whoops | 09:54 |
| mesa | wrong window | 09:54 |
| FloodBot2 | mesa: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:54 |
| Dr_Willis | lockd: i always set it up on the friends windows bpxs :) | 09:54 |
| smegzor | of all the daft things to remove from Ubuntu. | 09:54 |
| Dr_Willis | smegzor: i got IsleRiot solitare here | 09:55 |
| lockd | juniecho: well it detects the mouse all right, so it's probably X. anyway was this a clean install? | 09:55 |
| Dr_Willis | AisleRiot is a part of GNOME Games | 09:55 |
| juniecho | lockd, yes it was a clean install | 09:55 |
| lockd | juniecho: yeah, that makes it worse | 09:55 |
| dariuzas | maybe enybody know how to fix internet speed on ubuntu 9.10 ? | 09:55 |
| lockd | juniecho: can you paste the xorg log? | 09:55 |
| lockd | juniecho: /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 09:56 |
| juniecho | lockd, what is the xorg log and how can i get access to it? | 09:56 |
| juniecho | lockd: thanks | 09:56 |
| Severite | I got beaten on trying to manually compile programs that wouldn't load with the autocompiler, most things (games, mostly) just wouldn't seem to load. I appreciate all the help | 09:57 |
| Dr_Willis | what 'autocompiler' ? | 09:57 |
| juniecho | lockd: it's too long but here you go http://paste.ubuntu.com/305751/ | 09:57 |
| crypto_ | I need to remove my old kernels from the boot menu | 09:57 |
| crypto_ | ow should i do it | 09:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Severite: a lot depends on the exact program/package/whaterver ;) | 09:57 |
| crypto_ | How* | 09:58 |
| ki4cgp | dariuzas, I'm in the same boat as you. I think it's a DNS issue. I think it is getting hung up while trying to find the IP. Once on a site, it seems to work fine until the server name changes | 09:58 |
| Severite | xandros utility that would install random programs | 09:58 |
| smegzor | Dr_Willis: She wants her old solitaire game back. Nothing else is as good. | 09:58 |
| Dr_Willis | crypto_: that system -> admin -> computer janitor tool can remove them.. but i would always leave at least one 'old' kenrel installed. | 09:58 |
| smegzor | Removing female friendly games from an OS is dangerous. :) | 09:58 |
| Dr_Willis | smegzor: girls dont use linux... go install hello-kitty games for her. | 09:59 |
| apuokas | smegzor, dual boot with windows for that game then :) | 09:59 |
| apuokas | wine could help too | 09:59 |
| smegzor | she already dual boots, but only for the tv (tuner) | 09:59 |
| Dr_Willis | My wife likes pysol. | 09:59 |
| crypto_ | I have four boot options too kernels and two recovery | 09:59 |
| Pumba | So ... 5.56 or 7.62? | 09:59 |
| th1 | smegzor, I wonder what the package was called in Jaunty because I can't find anything there that isn't in karmic | 09:59 |
| crypto_ | So should i remove the old kernels? | 09:59 |
| Pumba | Glock or m1911? | 09:59 |
| Pumba | AR or AK? | 10:00 |
| Dr_Willis | crypto_: 2 kernels is not excessive.. remove the old if you want. | 10:00 |
| lockd | smegzor: wait, get a new HDTV tuner that actually supports Linux (and digital TV) | 10:00 |
| smegzor | I'm installing pysol in wine (didn't find a linux package) | 10:00 |
| Pedric | hi - are there any audigy2 users here? | 10:00 |
| dj__ | hey guys i want to upgrade to 9.10 is there any problem with 9.10 | 10:00 |

| Dr_Willis | crypto_: and the other is the actual windows system. | 10:01 |
| ki4cgp | crypto_, If I had to guess, it might be seeing both of your windows drives. one is a recovery partition | 10:01 |
| crypto_ | Yes i have one recovery partition | 10:01 |
| Dr_Willis | crypto_: system -> admin -> its in there on 9.10 at least.. | 10:01 |

| crypto_ | And i have one more problem, the same old headphone problem, sound comes from both headset and the default notebook speakers even if i put in the headset | 10:02 |

| Wibble- | Help! Trying to upgrade 9.04 to 9.10 my computer restarted half way through... Now I can get to a recovery shell, but otherwise it says that "one or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab can't be mounted"... Is my laptop pooped? Do I need to do a completely fresh install? or can I somehow recover stuff? | 10:04 |
| lockd | juniecho: maybe no choice but ripping out the new Xorg/HAL/evdev or whatever | 10:04 |
| juniecho | lockd: is this solvable by myself or do i just have to wait? | 10:05 |
| dvrvm | Wibble-: having a similar problem right now, on my box it looks like the system is still booting on the old kernle | 10:05 |
| crypto_ | here is my alsamixer output http://paste.ubuntu.com/305754/ | 10:05 |
| lockd | juniecho: well, it's like the opposite of waiting, it's going back | 10:05 |
| Wibble- | dvrvm, my install didn't finish and the new kernel isn't available | 10:05 |
| quimkaos | hi all! i had in 9.04 an application in system admin were i could see and restart system services... i'm not finding any packages for it in 9.10... does anyone knows the name of the/similar program | 10:05 |
| Pedric | Does anyone know how to get an Audigy2 to produce multi-channel surround sound through the new PulseAudio in 9.10? The old solution of setting default-sample-channels in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf does not work for me... | 10:06 |
| juniecho | lockd: okay... sounds scary, hope it doesn't disable my tablet pc... | 10:06 |
| dvrvm | Wibble-: In this case, I can't help you a lot :/ | 10:06 |
| crypto_ | hello can anyone tell me | 10:06 |
| ki4cgp | Wibble-, I would put the livecd back in and make sure you have all you need backed up, and then do a fresh install. No telling what sorta mess that will make even if you finish off the install. | 10:06 |
| crypto_ | Why aint the headphone working? | 10:06 |
| juniecho | lockd: and how can i go back? | 10:06 |
| speme | how can I run by LiveCD with harddisk power off? | 10:06 |
| Wibble- | :( | 10:07 |
| th1 | crypto_, probably because of pulseaudio :( | 10:07 |
| crypto_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/305754/ | 10:07 |
| crypto_ | here is my alsamixer output | 10:07 |
| lockd | juniecho: well, it's a headache dealing with stuff like that, especially when you can't simply install old packages without possible breakage in other places | 10:07 |
| epinky | gabel: Try to create a new profile | 10:07 |
| th1 | crypto_, its not possible to see everything on that dump | 10:08 |
| th1 | crypto_, there is more to the right | 10:08 |
| lockd | juniecho: but from reading the mailing lists, I don't get the idea that the devs really care upstream | 10:08 |
| crypto_ | thats it | 10:08 |
| gabel | epinky i will try and come back.. thx for idea | 10:08 |
| crypto_ | Nothing more | 10:08 |
| ki4cgp | Wibble-, I know. But I would advise that of any system that was hosed. Even if the install finishes, you'll probably have things breaking afterwards, or at the very least, the system complaining about endless things | 10:08 |
| lizzzy | Hi! | 10:08 |

| SmokeyD | but I can't change the settings of the loginscreen anymore | 10:09 |
| th1 | crypto_, that's pulseaudio's doing | 10:09 |
| Wibble- | ki4cgp, Thanks | 10:09 |

| lockd | juniecho: you say a tablet? it looks like it's related to the wacom tablet using up the allotted character devices | 10:10 |
| alokito | SmokeyD: search synaptic for gdm2 themes, im not sure if any is available yet | 10:10 |

| SmokeyD | alokito: but where do I change those settings of gdm2. Which tool do I use to make those settings? | 10:11 |
| deo | SmokeyD: I am not sure if this what you want buy try System/Preferences/Appearance | 10:11 |
| alokito | lizzzy: run update-grub from a live cd | 10:11 |
| mrwes | quimkaos, sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart ? | 10:11 |

| lizzzy | alokito: karmic | 10:11 |
| lockd | juniecho: did that just stop working too? | 10:11 |

| alokito | lizzzy: ok sudo update-grub should work | 10:12 |
| athlan | and without formatting either partition? | 10:12 |
| mrwes | SmokeyD, you can't do that in Karmic, it was removed to speed boot time | 10:12 |
| th1 | gluonman, the mouse working or not is completely unrelated to Windows 7/ dual booting | 10:12 |

| al_ | anyone know a free place i can host a 100meg image? | 10:13 |
| epinky | slurp: what sudo mount says? | 10:13 |
| lockd | juniecho: the easiest solution is probably downgrading until this gets fixed, which likely won't happen in Karmic at all | 10:13 |
| SmokeyD | that is a real shame! I had such a nice login screen! | 10:13 |
| Pumba | With the Cisco IOS, does anyone know how to interpret the output of the 'show ip route' command? | 10:13 |
| ki4cgp | sim642, The CD is ejected because it assumes your CD is not your OS, what is on your hard drive is the OS, and it is expecting you to resume your HD's install on reboot | 10:13 |
| juniecho | lockd, don't know. can't be sure as this 9.10 karmic is the first ubuntu version to make tablet working out-of-the-box. previous versions required manual compilation of tablet drivers... well it didn't work from the 9.10 installation surely. | 10:13 |
| juniecho | lockd, that's bad :( | 10:13 |

| lockd | juniecho: oh, wait, 9.04 the tablet drivers didn't work? | 10:14 |
| SmokeyD | Why can't I choose what I want. It is cool that the default is not using themes for the gdm screen, but why can't I change the default. This is starting to look like windows where you can't change anything anymore | 10:14 |
| al_ | DigitalKiwi: ta | 10:14 |
| Xed | Pumba: #cisco | 10:14 |
| DigitalKiwi | iirc it is 2^30 bytes | 10:14 |
| Dr_Willis | athlan: you could resize one/ shrink the other some.. then copy the files from #2 to #1.. then repeate.. eventually shrinking #2 down till its empty | 10:15 |
| DigitalKiwi | i should know this offhand, i wrote a script to upload to it... | 10:15 |
| alokito | SmokeyD: u can switch back to old gdm if you want | 10:15 |
| juniecho | lockd, in 9.04 i needed to manually compile and install tablet drivers. in 9.10 the tablet works out-of-the-box | 10:15 |
| mrwes | SmokeyD, karmic uses GDM 2.28, vs the old 2.20, which most themes were written. I heard they are working on a GUI, but it might not be out until 10.04 | 10:15 |

| gabel | epinky, it didnt work... i cant add addons for firefox when i run from live cd... | 10:15 |
| erUSUL | SmokeyD: new shiny gdm version. Less options and polish. You will have to wait till they are added back | 10:15 |
| Dr_Willis | athlan: no idea whata you mean by 'without formating' :) | 10:15 |
| lockd | juniecho: hmm, and was this with a special driver set? | 10:15 |
| SmokeyD | mrwes, erUSUL: ok, they will be added back, than I'll be patient | 10:15 |
| juniecho | lockd, you mean 9.10? | 10:16 |
| SmokeyD | as long as they didn't drop it permanently | 10:16 |
| gabel | epinky, btw i cant access the ubuntu czech web on www.ubuntu.cz but from windows i can... | 10:16 |

| yancho | anyone uses ubuntuzilla please? | 10:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Xed: if you can ping via ip. but not via name - thats a sign of 'dns' issues. | 10:16 |
| DigitalKiwi | al_: yeah, up to a gig, enjoy the random crap >.> | 10:16 |
| erUSUL | SmokeyD: added back as in a few ubuntu releases not in a few days | 10:16 |

| mrwes | SmokeyD, IMHO, it was kept pretty quiet about the change. But it was needed to get to meet the boot speed goals. you can check out this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8194795#post8194795 | 10:16 |

| al_ | DigitalKiwi: heheh ok | 10:17 |
| alokito | yancho: u don't need ubuntuzilla in karmic! ff 3.5 is already default in it | 10:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Xed: depends on what app is doing it then. it could be a app specific or proxy setting issue then. | 10:17 |
| yancho | alokito, .04 still just waitinga bit more befoer upgrading | 10:17 |
| lockd | juniecho: this is probably useless but it's a proposed solution: http://www.mail-archive.com/xorg@lists.freedesktop.org/msg07970.html | 10:17 |
| epinky | slurp: which partition do you want on nautilus? | 10:17 |
| lockd | oh, that's bluetooth issues only | 10:17 |

| alokito | I don't see any reason why the driver would be removed in 9.10! | 10:21 |
| Haberdasher456 | ki4cgp, you have 4 gig installed? | 10:21 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: it works here.. so perhaps give more info on your card and other details to the channel | 10:21 |
| smileg33k | ki4cgp: is 2 GB Ram, not enough ? | 10:21 |
| juniecho | lockd: so i can disable some devices of my choice... like bluetooth dongle | 10:21 |
| lockd | juniecho: also if you compile HAL and Xorg from their development repositories, it's supposed to support more devices at the same time | 10:21 |
| ki4cgp | Haberdasher456, I have 4 Gigs installed | 10:22 |

| alokito | dj__: karmic has better support for intel | 10:24 |
| juniecho | lockd: guess i'll just stick to win7 for now and wait for 10.04... | 10:24 |
| slurp | but | 10:24 |
| erUSUL | th1: use synaptic to remove the packages | 10:24 |
| slurp | mmm | 10:24 |
| alokito | dj__: do a fresh install and see what happens | 10:24 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: did it work on the live cd? thats a good 'test' | 10:24 |
| lockd | juniecho: oh, I thought you were just going to go back to 9.04 | 10:24 |
| dj__ | how is to do fresh install never done that | 10:24 |

| athlan | Dr_Willis i mean i dont want to format the disk, loosing all the files, and then reformat to one partition | 10:25 |
| th1 | I was looking for an automatic way to do it | 10:25 |
| slurp | epinky i don't visualize the partition Dati | 10:25 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | ubuntu: probably a pulseaudio problem, using combined output maybe? | 10:25 |
| juniecho | lockd: of 9.04? yeah but i don't install many packages so it's no difference :) | 10:25 |
| dj__ | alokito:is there any tutorial for upggrade fresh install | 10:25 |

| dj__ | alokito: so you mean to format my pc and install 9.10 | 10:26 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: i would make a live cd, or use the usb-creator tool to test it from a live-usb to verify that it does work. I alway do clean installs, i never upgrade. | 10:26 |
| BlouBlou | Diapo: did you updgrade grub to grub2? | 10:26 |

| jhg | alokito: move data to external drive? | 10:27 |
| ubuntu | Dr_Willis, there should be to get it to work though, right? it was just working a little while ago.. before the upgrade | 10:27 |
| BlouBlou | Diapo: try to updgrade to new grub, ubuntu 9.10 uses by default grub2 (with new installations) | 10:27 |
| jhg | alokito: people that dont use windows :p | 10:27 |

| meatbun | guy, i mounted the IOS, copied the md5sum.txt out and i use the command "md5sum -c md5sum", thta guy said i have to mount it first | 10:42 |
| posix | danielle: not sure if you've seen my video problems (totem) but it plays ok for a minute or two and then starts freezing | 10:42 |
| meatbun | guys | 10:42 |
| chazco | erUSUL - Is it possible to remove totem and gstreamer altogether then i wonder, could use the space if i'm installing other players... | 10:42 |
| Slart | mathew: check the volume settings.. there might be a separate slider for the speakers | 10:42 |
| simh | hi everyone | 10:42 |
| posix | danielle: tried with vlc as well but it's even worse | 10:42 |
| jrib | meatbun: you don't have to mount it. | 10:42 |

| BlouBlou | !ask | simh | 10:42 |
| ubottu | simh: 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. :-) | 10:42 |
| Ublondie | thanks Slart ...I do like the idea of separate partition. ...I am on laptop and do quite a bit of work on it re web developing etc. | 10:42 |
| jimbeam12 | hmm dont know | 10:42 |
| jimbeam12 | maybe | 10:43 |
| an0therb0x | new user question ... i download virtualbox-3.0_3.0.8-53138_Ubuntu_jaunty_i386.deb and i have version 2 already install , how do i upgrade packages in ubuntu ? | 10:43 |
| mathew | Slart: I enabled the headphone sound using alsamixer, I do nto see an option for speakers there | 10:43 |
| simh | the installer does not find a module for my hdd and therefore it oesnt see any HDD so i cant install :) | 10:43 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | ubuntu: if you need sound now, try removing pulseaudio. besides that, there is probably a problem with detecting your audio card. that's all I can say. | 10:43 |
| SingAlong | How do i change the list of options i get for desktop environments while logging in? | 10:43 |
| jimbeam12 | i just installed ubuntu 9.10 not too long ago and did the updates | 10:43 |

| ElVinz | i am doing computations on my computer, and need to get the amoutn of free memory on a periodic basic when I launch one. However, the command 'free' count cached memory as used memory, and, it seems that cached memory is freed before memory is filled enough to go to swap. Is there a command to get the 'real' free memory left before swapping ? | 10:43 |
| vashitn | hey i saw powerpc version of 9.10 last week but i lost the link does anyone could give it to me :) | 10:43 |
| Slart | mathew: then I don't know | 10:43 |
| simh | BlouBlou: ubottu sure thing :) | 10:43 |
| BlouBlou | an0therb0x: if you have got old version, with new .deb packet it will update automatically | 10:43 |
| meatbun | jrib, ok, but that guy's way, he said to mount it first | 10:43 |
| static_ | Has anyone gotten Ubuntu 9.10 to work with a dual boot with Windows 7? | 10:44 |
| Slart | ElVinz: I think there is a different column in free for the actual free memory | 10:44 |
| jrib | meatbun: and I'm telling you that that is not necessary... | 10:44 |
| Slart | static_: yes | 10:44 |
| Ublondie | Slart: thanks. That's what I understood it to be. Have already done it and was happy that I had separate partition. | 10:44 |
| AJH101 | hello all | 10:44 |
| chazco | static_ - Yep, working fine here :) | 10:44 |
| AJH101 | what version runs on a 64MB RAM laptop?! | 10:44 |
| ubuntistas | i did a gnome-shell --replace how can i go to default now? | 10:44 |
| jrib | !verify | meatbun | 10:44 |
| ubottu | meatbun: 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 | 10:44 |

| SingAlong | anyone? | 10:44 |
| vashitn | !powerpc | 10:44 |
| ubottu | PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 10:44 |
| static_ | any suggestions, I install windows 7 32bit, it works fine, I leave unallocated space for ubuntu and install ubuntu to that space and afterwards windows 7 BSODs with a chkdsk /r error, can't get chkdsk to run on it either of course... | 10:45 |
| Slart | AJH101: try xubuntu or perhaps DSL or puppylinux..or running without X at all | 10:45 |
| AJH101 | or do you know where I could find the answer?! | 10:45 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | ubuntistas: default what? | 10:45 |

| meatbun | jrib, how to utilize the md5sum.txt already contained in the ISO? | 10:45 |
| BlouBlou | AJH101: lubuntu | 10:45 |

| an0therb0x | BlouBlou: i am getting an error "virtualbox-3.0 conflicts with virtualbox virtualbox-2.2 provides virtualbox and is present and installed" | 10:46 |
| jrib | meatbun: wait, IN the iso? Just use the "check cd for defects" option when you boot the iso then | 10:46 |
| ubuntistas | default gnome not 3 as i have now miraiwarren0_0 | 10:46 |
| epinky | AJH101: Ubuntu with Fluxbox | 10:46 |
| Ublondie | will an updated Ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 be in any way 'bloated' or 'not quite' a full 9.10 install? ....my thought is that it's best to start with freshly formatted drives/partitions. If I format /root and /swap, can I still leave my /home partition untouched from 9.04 (obviously leaving it with ext3 partition)? | 10:46 |
| BlouBlou | an0therb0x: sudo apt-get purge virtualbox | sudo apt-get autoremove virtualbox | and then install .deb | 10:46 |

| ubuntistas | i did a gnome-shell --replace how can i go to default now? | 10:47 |
| woddf2 | Hello | 10:47 |
| meatbun | jrib, no i don't want to check for defect after cd is burnt. too late | 10:48 |
| ubuntistas | i did a gnome-shell --replace for gnome 3 how can i go to default now? | 10:48 |
| Dr_Willis | meatbun: you are calculatiing the sum OF the iso file. the md5sum file was a second file you downloaded. | 10:48 |

| natschil | Dr_Willis: thanks | 10:48 |
| Ublondie | is it considered rude to re-post a question? | 10:48 |
| jrib | meatbun: look. There are two things you can do: 1) Just use the "check the CD for defects" option when you actually boot the cd. Or 2) Download the MD5SUMS file from one of the mirrors (e.g. releases.ubuntu.com) to the same directory containing the .iso and then run the command « md5sum -c MD5SUMS » | 10:48 |
| Dr_Willis | natschil: im using that on my home lan of 4 pc's | 10:48 |
| jrib | Ublondie: wait about 10 minutes | 10:48 |

| ripedar | Hello. I have problem with sound after update. It's working but at very poor quality. I had this problem before on 8.10 but i can't remember how i solved it before. I was searching the forums but can't find something. Can someone help me? Thanks. PM me if you can | 10:50 |

| BlouBlou | ripedar: I have this problem too :( | 10:50 |

| ubottu | Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 10:50 |

| BlouBlou | _newbie_: sudo ufw disable | 10:50 |
| macrobat | ripedar, maybe pkill pulseaudio | 10:50 |

| BlouBlou | _newbie_: firestarter? | 10:51 |
| simh | so how can I install 8.04 lts if it doesnt detect my hdd? | 10:51 |
| natschil | Ublondie: Though installing a fresh release every time there is one might be the best option performance wise, it is often more practical to upgrade, and I doubt that there are many performance issues when upgrading. | 10:51 |
| _newbie_ | neither | 10:51 |
| SingAlong | anyone using the new Ubuntu 9.10? Hows the experience? I have a lot of problems with it on my netbook. | 10:51 |
| BlouBlou | !iptables | _newbie_ | 10:51 |
| ubottu | _newbie_: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 10:51 |

| ys___ | phixxor, well... that's ok, you should try dist-upgrade first, then update and dist-upgrade, then -f if something goes wrong | 11:03 |

| ys___ | phixxor, on the xorg.conf i mean | 11:05 |

| natrixnatrix89 | mrwes: but why does not madwi work anymore? | 11:07 |
| BlouBlou | Yaya: bye :) | 11:07 |
| jrib | natrixnatrix89: never used madwifi but I'm pretty sure you haven't had to compile it for a while | 11:07 |

| MasterJimmy | hey, quick queztion. i has long listy of apps my friend installed that he put on my pastebin for me. um...how do i save those to a file and have them installed allat once? here's the list: http://psinetic.pastebin.com/m4bcd4990 | 11:08 |
| joep | Yaya: Thanks. I'll try that. | 11:08 |
| Yaya | No problemo :) | 11:08 |
| pshr_ | after i press upgrade the update manager stops responding.. what is this ? | 11:08 |
| meatbun | when i use gnome's auto mount iso, file browser opens, where is it mounted? i want to cd into it via command line | 11:08 |
| mrwes | MasterJimmy, have your friend run this command: sudo dpkg --get-selections > installed.software | 11:08 |
| meatbun | i don't see it in /media or /mnt | 11:08 |
| jrib | mrwes: I think that's what he pastebinned | 11:09 |
| pshr_ | New dist available 9.10 but cant upgrade | 11:09 |
| mrwes | MasterJimmy, and then give you a copy of the installed.software file -- it's text only | 11:09 |
| mrwes | MasterJimmy, then on your end run: dpkg --set-selections < installed.software | 11:09 |
| mrwes | jrib, I didn't look at it :) | 11:09 |
| MasterJimmy | mrwes, thanks :) | 11:09 |
| simh | BlouBlou: do you know, is there maybe other channel i can ask for help? i see here are mostly 'desktop questions' :) | 11:09 |
| pshr_ | why ? is this happening.. why can't i upgrade | 11:10 |
| BlouBlou | simh: private | 11:10 |
| joep | Yaya: Do I have to stop upgrading first? | 11:10 |
| O__o | hi just one question, i just downloaded the img from ubuntu.com. Is it the official release of 9.10 ?? | 11:11 |
| mrwes | 0__o: hrmm...yah | 11:11 |
| bazhang | O__o, the iso ? yes | 11:11 |
| === krphop_ is now known as krphop | ||
| mrwes | you check the MD5sum on it? | 11:11 |
| CliffS | Last time when I upgraded to 9.04 it all broke on the FGLRX drivers not being ready. Am I going to hit the same problem this time around? | 11:12 |
| O__o | i didnt check the checksum | 11:12 |
| O__o | i just burn it to a cd | 11:12 |
| mrwes | 0__o: why wouldn't be official if you downloaded it from www.ubuntu.com ? | 11:12 |
| ViaNocturn85 | hey, anyone able to help me with bursts of energy internet? | 11:12 |
| O__o | i mean i dont know if it is still beta or not | 11:12 |
| mrwes | sigh | 11:12 |
| AJH101 | what is the difference btwn lubuntu and you-lite? | 11:13 |
| bazhang | ViaNocturn85, please re-phrase | 11:13 |
| Dr_Willis | O__o: what was the complete file name? | 11:13 |
| erUSUL | !final > O__o | 11:13 |
| ubottu | O__o, please see my private message | 11:13 |
| meatbun | jrib, u know what. it does work. i also can mount iso first then do md5sum. i suppose this way it only checks the important installation files (only 57 files) but not the entire CD. | 11:13 |
| ViaNocturn85 | haha, I can't describe better | 11:13 |
| ViaNocturn85 | ok | 11:13 |
| hellyes | phixxor: is it possible yet to network an ubuntu machine w/ a windows 7 machine? I can network XP, but using the same steps I still can't manage to share w/ win 7 | 11:13 |
| jrib | meatbun: k | 11:13 |
| O__o | Dr_Willis, ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso | 11:13 |
| Jesi | Broken pipe: Overrun occurred. in recordmydesktop, what does it mean? <---- also, I added the gui frontend but have no idea how to start it | 11:13 |
| ViaNocturn85 | basically my internet is great one minute and ridiculously slow the next | 11:13 |
| ext4_doubt | on a FRESH install would there be a problem if i format / /usr /var as ext4 but have /home as ext3? has anyone here done that and did not suffer any performance problems or stability issues? | 11:14 |
| BlouBlou | O__o: it0s seems final release | 11:14 |
| Dr_Willis | hellyes: networking and 'getting samba/network neighborhood' are related. ;) but different. i had no issuesx with windows7 beta and my ubuntu box's | 11:14 |
| ViaNocturn85 | its just took me 1/2 hour to send an email with a 52kb attachment! | 11:14 |
| erUSUL | ext4_doubt: no problem what so ever. | 11:14 |
| SwedeMike | ext4_doubt: you can have any fs on any partition, doesn't really matter. | 11:14 |
| BlouBlou | O__o: it hasn't got "RC" or "beta" in file name, so... I think it's final | 11:14 |
| AJH101 | what is the difference btwn lubuntu and u-lite? | 11:14 |
| erUSUL | any unix fs* | 11:14 |
| Dr_Willis | hellyes: thers proberly some samba guides out there updated for win7 you may want to track down | 11:14 |
| Dr_Willis | AJH101: lubuntu = lxde desktop. No idea on u-lite - check its homepage | 11:15 |
| meatbun | jrib, it's nice to know another way. but u don't sound excited... | 11:15 |
| babak | hi | 11:15 |
| hellyes | Dr_Willis: thanx! | 11:15 |
| jrib | meatbun: no, because checking the md5sum of the .iso makes more sense | 11:15 |
| AJH101 | Dr-Willis: ldxe? I am a newbie | 11:15 |
| MasterJimmy | mrwes, that command didn't actually install anything. it just went to the next line. | 11:15 |
| BlouBlou | AJH101: lubuntu uses lxce, another desktop, and ubuntu lite is not official, is ubuntu with much programms unistalled | 11:15 |
| epinky | AJH101: www.distrowatch.com | 11:15 |
| babak | where can i paste (upload). my errors in ubuntu? | 11:15 |
| Dr_Willis | AJH101: another desktop. Stick with Ubuntu if you dont know what other things are.. or check them out via google. Its just a light-desktop. | 11:16 |
| mrwes | MasterJimmy, sudo apt-get update | 11:16 |
| AJH101 | I want to try it on a 64mb machine | 11:16 |
| meatbun | jrib, yes, it does. but sometime u don't have md5sum. and have to go for a less desirable route | 11:16 |
| mrwes | MasterJimmy, sudo apt-get upgrade | 11:16 |
| ViaNocturn85 | anyone able to help with internet that is either nice and fast or terribly slow? | 11:16 |
| erUSUL | !paste | babak | 11:16 |

| ntnroz_ | can i get a link for a good known mIRC client plz | 11:16 |
| Dr_Willis | ntnroz_: mirc is one of many IRC clients.. theres dozens of irc clients out there | 11:17 |
| mrwes | MasterJimmy, sudo dpkg --set-selections < installed.software :0 | 11:17 |
| Dr_Willis | ntnroz_: xchat is a common one used on ubuntu | 11:17 |
| erUSUL | ntnroz_: use x-chat | 11:17 |
| ntnroz_ | thanks | 11:17 |
| BlouBlou | ViaNocturn85: this is usually your isp problem or ubuntu server's conection | 11:17 |
| ViaNocturn85 | i use kvirc | 11:17 |
| MasterJimmy | ntnroz_: sudo apt-get install xchat | 11:17 |
| meatbun | jrib, my volunteer work place has all sort of stuff, no documentations. no nothing. so using the raw md5sum in the iso is last resort. though not safe... | 11:17 |
| mrwes | MasterJimmy, is the installed.software file located in your /home directory? | 11:17 |
| Dr_Willis | quassle on KDE/Kubuntu has some neat features also for an IRC client | 11:17 |
| babak | how can solve this problem? http://paste.ubuntu.com/305789/ | 11:17 |
| ViaNocturn85 | but how is that possible when its been going brilliant up and till a week ago | 11:17 |
| ntnroz_ | i got some link to bitchx.org, but there was nothing about the irc client there | 11:17 |
| MasterJimmy | mrwes, yes, in the desktop | 11:18 |
| natschil | ntnroz_: konversation is also quite nice, I prefer its interface to xchat. | 11:18 |
| ntnroz_ | thanks all | 11:18 |
| ys___ | babak paste somewhere your /etc/apt/sources.list file | 11:18 |
| mrwes | MasterJimmy, sudo dpkg --set-selections < ~/Desktop/installed.software | 11:18 |
| Ublondie | thanks all ...ciao :) | 11:18 |
| ziggy | any one here? | 11:18 |
| meatbun | jrib, like where am i going to find the digest for ubuntu 4.x? i ll have to assume the guy who first downloaded it. did it for .iso. and i am just redoing it for the a double check | 11:18 |
| joep | ViaNocturn85: I have the same problem. I have also chello as provider and I started upgrading jaunty and the connection is terribly slow. I think everyone is upgrading now. | 11:19 |
| MasterJimmy | mrwes: psinetic@psinetic-desktop:~/Desktop$ sudo dpkg --set-selections < ~/Desktop/installed.software | 11:19 |

| MasterJimmy | BlouBlou, it was two lines for crying out loud. i have a three line rule, that wasn't three lines. ffs | 11:19 |
| mrwes | shrug...works for me all the time brutha | 11:19 |
| meatbun | jrib, i belive that's that the ubuntu cd does, at boot time, check for cd defects. | 11:19 |
| ViaNocturn85 | oh no, dont get me wrong, the upgrade went nice and thats just it. I can be really fast on it, then the next moment its so slow it's unbelievable | 11:19 |
| mrwes | heh | 11:20 |
| ys___ | babak remove the bad line breaks, all lines should start with "deb" | 11:20 |
| ViaNocturn85 | I disabled the ipv6, that helped a little | 11:20 |
| ys___ | babak, so the second line should end in restricted multiverse | 11:20 |
| fgt | ViaNocturn85; check your DNS | 11:20 |
| BlouBlou | MasterJimmy: all code or error lines should be pasted in pastebin | 11:20 |

| MasterJimmy | w/e | 11:20 |
| ziggy | is it normal to not have compiz fushion with dull screens ? | 11:20 |
| fgt | I had the same kind of issue, and it's not ipv6 | 11:20 |
| fgt | that's just a myth | 11:21 |

| ziggy | ok | 11:21 |
| BlouBlou | ziggy: it depends, it should works fine | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ziggy: dull? | 11:21 |
| ViaNocturn85 | what ya want me check on it exactly? | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ziggy: or did you mean dual? | 11:21 |

| ViaNocturn85 | ok sounds kinda dumb, but how do i check the DNS | 11:22 |
| ys___ | babak, no "deb", just deb | 11:22 |
| ys___ | babak, i mean you must remove the extra line breaks you have there | 11:22 |

| fgt | apuokas; try installing the language packs | 11:36 |
| ViaNocturn85 | siva: I found that in the software sources there are lots of 'disabled at upgrade to karmic', I ticked those and it fixed my problem | 11:36 |
| phixxor | gluonman: you'll have to edit grub 2 | 11:36 |

| matahari | how can i boot into the recovery console with Karmic? | 11:37 |
| MisterNutsack | ikonia, how do i manage that? | 11:37 |
| ikonia | MisterNutsack: it's better if your second network card is on a different ip range than your primary to stop routing confusion | 11:37 |
| shredder12 | I don't have scripts in /etc/grub.d/ after installation.. that is why i don't see any option to boot into ubuntu in grub?? what should I do now..?? | 11:37 |
| ziggy | ty for the url | 11:37 |
| phixxor | ys___: no -- sudo apt-get remove -f didn't work -- error was "update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for iceape-flashplugin" | 11:37 |
| ActionParsnip | matahari: grub2 has a recovery console option in its menu | 11:37 |
| phixxor | gluonman: sorry man, but I've never had to do that myself, so I'm not sure how to help. Have you read any grub2 guides? | 11:37 |
| ys___ | phixxor, how much still not configured packages do you have? | 11:37 |
| ActionParsnip | phixxor: uninstall the package, then try again | 11:37 |
| phixxor | ys___: I don't know -- it says 1 to remove and 2 not upgraded | 11:38 |
| phixxor | ActionParsnip: I don't know how to remove it, it won't remove | 11:38 |
| gluonman | phixxor, yes, which I've been trying to follow for the last hour or so, but nothing's working. | 11:38 |
| ys___ | phixxor, so it's ok, just make what ActionParsnip said, remove the package and reinstall again | 11:38 |
| siva | ubottu : the message is : "Package operation failed. The installation or removal of a software package failed. details : E:I wasnt able to locate file for the adobe-flashplugin package" | 11:38 |
| ikonia | MisterNutsack: you can you network manage if you're in gnome to configure your second nic | 11:38 |
| ActionParsnip | phixxor: sudo dpkg -r iceape-flashplugin | 11:38 |

| kane77 | hi, how do I remove repository that I added with add-apt-repository command? | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | phixxor: then run: dpkg -l | grep ice | 11:40 |
| ikonia | MisterNutsack: check the url I've just sent you, it will show you how to add an IP address to a network card, follow that procedure but use the second network card | 11:40 |
| resno | should i be able to exectue pulseaudio via terminal? | 11:40 |
| siva | sir, any solution | 11:40 |
| phixxor | gluonman: hmm, can you describe what's not working in a little more detail? maybe that will help the channel troubleshoot it | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | phixxor: actually that may show a lot | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | resno: sure | 11:40 |
| ikonia | MisterNutsack: to make it easier for yourself put the second network card on a totally different IP range, that stops problems with the default routing | 11:40 |
| mrwes | kane77, System | Admin | Software Sources | 11:41 |
| phixxor | ActionParsnip: how about -l | flashplugin | 11:41 |

| ziggy | now is this something that i may be able to get thro the add and remove or is it a secondarly thing | 11:44 |
| kane77 | mrwes, but the ones added by add-apt-repository command are not added there. probably to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ? | 11:44 |

| Sagaci | kane77: or gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list | 11:45 |

| ubottu | mandy: 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! | 12:19 |
| mandy_ | is it recommended to use ubunut 9.10 on a production sever or is it best to stay with 8.04 | 12:20 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: i got mine from the garrbage :) | 12:20 |
| typhoon | phixxor; iwconfig too | 12:20 |
| woble | mandy_ i wouldnt recommend it.. not yet | 12:20 |
| phixxor | woble: typhoon : alright, I'll give them a go | 12:20 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: i remember when vt100 serial terminals where 'cutting edge tech' :) | 12:20 |
| yancho | i cannot use a dvd for ubuntu 9.10 and i have no cd's .. is there omething to check before making a usb boot? | 12:20 |
| mandy_ | so staying with 8.04 is best? | 12:20 |
| Semtex | hey guys I have screwed my install by upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10 | 12:20 |
| phixxor | mandy_: until all the installation bugs get ironed out | 12:20 |
| PsychoMario | im way too young for that :) but im interested in older hardware stuff | 12:20 |
| mandy_ | ok | 12:20 |

| fgt | send it again | 12:21 |

| psypointer | i've got a fresh buntu install and an geforce 9600 gt. the restricted driver manager doesn't offer me the nvidia treiber, it simply shows nothing. is that ab ug? | 12:21 |
| woble | psypointer , im with you.. no idea how to solve | 12:21 |

| philipp_ | Hallo? | 12:25 |
| dreambox | hello guys! I am wondering if I could start the installation from a USB stick | 12:25 |
| dreambox | or an external disk | 12:25 |
| dreambox | instead of burning a CD | 12:25 |
| typhoon | dreambox: yes you can | 12:25 |
| PsychoMario | how would i go about forwarding a whole desktop environment (something light) over ssh (X forwarding) | 12:25 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: thats how i always do installs.. via usb | 12:25 |
| Semtex | hey guys is my bootproblem fixable? or have I lost all my data? | 12:25 |
| sl | woble: i have done that and after i had that problem : http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/29212/screenshot_001_7i1OCF.png | 12:25 |
| ntnrozen | i've asked before, and got answered i'm not the first one to have a touch pad issue, (only external usb mouse is working), does is happen only on HP notebooks? | 12:25 |
| dreambox | I suppose I just "unzip" the iso to the usb stick? while this being empty? | 12:25 |
| frostburn | PsychoMario, ssh -X | 12:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Semtex: you could al2ways boot a live cd. and copy your imporntant data somewhere safe.. | 12:26 |
| PsychoMario | frostburn, that can do specific programs, how do i do the whole destop e.g. XFCE | 12:26 |
| dj_ | hey guys this is my screnn resolution how to fix this http://www.pastebin.ca/1650363 | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: you do NOT unzip the iso to a usb stick. | 12:26 |
| Younder | ryhmbox dumps with a 'can't find pygtk' | 12:26 |
| dreambox | typhoon Dr_Willis : how do i do it | 12:26 |
| typhoon | dreambox: i "hacked" around last time, i created a bootable usb stick, using the usb installer, then replaced all the files with ones from the iso | 12:26 |
| frostburn | PsychoMario, xfce is just a program, run that | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: you use a tool like unetbootin or usb-disk-creator to make a bootabel flash drive | 12:26 |
| typhoon | dreambox: seemed to work for me :D | 12:26 |
| PsychoMario | ooh, ill have to try that. | 12:26 |
| Younder | as a pt-get refuses to acknolege such a module exists | 12:27 |
| Subby83 | Dr_Willis: there is really _no_ option to choose for encryption. but after installation it is encrypted :( | 12:27 |
| sl | woble: i have tried the installation with internet and with alternate cd i have the same problem | 12:27 |
| Younder | apt-get | 12:27 |
| dreambox | Dr_Willis : ok trying to find these tools.. how much space do I need? | 12:27 |
| sl | woble: http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/29212/screenshot_001_7i1OCF.png | 12:27 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: a cd is 700 mb.. so.. :) 700mb.. + a little more | 12:27 |
| Semtex | Dr_Willis I have over 500GB of data to move if I cant fix it! | 12:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Semtex: it pays to have backups.. i would suggest backing up anything.. in any case. | 12:27 |
| dreambox | I wonder if I could do that with Windows 7 too... | 12:28 |
| Semtex | If worst comes to worst I'll have to format but my data is still there | 12:28 |
| phixxor | typhoon: I found the answer. Same bug as these guys http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305812&highlight=karmic+madwifi | 12:28 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: ive seen guides to make bootable win7 flash drives. | 12:28 |
| anatolich | hi all! i got a problem installing grub2 on a partition (Karmic). Can anybody consult me? | 12:28 |
| Semtex | the install is just screwed and I dont how to fix it | 12:28 |
| PsychoMario | could i forward XFCE over serial over ssh from putty in windows? | 12:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Semtex: backup befor formatng. :) of course.. No idea on fixing your install... its always a good idea to havbe bacjups | 12:28 |
| dreambox | Dr_Willis : just asking cause the pack of dvd's costs like 30-40E here.. | 12:29 |
| dreambox | Dr_Willis dont feel like paying that ! | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: over 'serial' is the tricky part.. theres several ways to do serial connections | 12:29 |
| Semtex | where would be the best place to get help with "One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted: | 12:29 |
| Semtex | (ESC for recovery shell) | 12:29 |
| Semtex | swap: waiting for UUID=19ec2898-8e83-4b1c-9b8f-8790d42fd56a" error? | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: i use redundant stacks of external usb hard drives now.. DVDs are not worth the hassle for me any more | 12:29 |
| aanderse | anyone here ever use module-assistant to build their nvidia drivers? | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: for the cost of dvd media.. i can get a exteranl 1 tb hd.. | 12:30 |
| detrix | Hello everyone. upgraded to 9.10 a few days ago. just realized, that I have no sound. I had sound with 9.04. I am not sure why. | 12:30 |
| dreambox | Dr_Willis yeap totally.. so UNetbootin, Universal Netboot Installer .. is this what we want | 12:30 |
| DigitalShankar | hi tux friends | 12:30 |
| phixxor | is it save to enable the nvidia driver in jockey? or will it break the system again? | 12:30 |
| coz_ | aanderse, no however you want to manually install the nvidia driver correct? | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: thas a good tool to make a booteable flash drive.. | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: the pendrivelinux.com site has other tools and guides. | 12:30 |
| aanderse | coz_: yeah i used module assistant to build version x, but now i want to use it to build version x | 12:30 |
| dreambox | so it should be a usb stick, not an external usb disk.. | 12:30 |
| Subby83 | Can anybody confirm, there is no way to install Karmic without home encryption when using a manual partioning? | 12:31 |
| aanderse | coz_: i don't know how to use module-assistant to specify the version it builds | 12:31 |
| PsychoMario | Dr_Willis: ive decided to do ppp to get networking on the windows box, then ill ssh over that ppp line with putty (?) with X forwarding enabled, and try to start an X program. Shame i can't try these things yet, i need my dad to order me another serial-usb | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | dreambox: unetbootin i think can doit to external hd. but ive never done it that way | 12:31 |
| === Liberty is now known as spiritof76 | ||
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: thats how it would be done basically. and it will be nasty slow i imagine.. perhaps not very useable at all. | 12:31 |
| typhoon | phixxor: ok, cool. well at least you're not alone :) | 12:31 |
| PsychoMario | ill find out when i try :) thanks for the help | 12:31 |
| Balug | Hello, can i ask something. cause im a bit stuck :$ | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: but for windows.. you need a X server also.. not just putty. ie: xming | 12:31 |
| phixxor | typhoon: I'm usually not anymore :P | 12:32 |
| thunderbird | hello | 12:32 |
| coz_ | aanderse, you need to be sure you have build-essential installed then download the nvidia driver .sh install pacakge ctrl+alt+F1 log in server gdm stop ..I believe... cd to location of driver...sudo NVIDIA........sh pacakge ..answer yes to all questions then reboot | 12:32 |
| woble | shite "desktop effects could not be enabled" | 12:32 |
| PsychoMario | i can't remember how i did it before, ill look into it. i just need to find out how to get ubuntu to listen on the serial and give the ppp connection... | 12:32 |
| thunderbird | I'd need some help with that too (Desktop effects) | 12:32 |
| woble | upgraded from jaunty to Karmic thunderbird? | 12:32 |
| [OpenSys] | hello, i upgrade to the new 9.10 and now my snd-emu10k1 was a sound very metalic, like digital sound when is playing. As i can solve this ? | 12:32 |
| Balug | Cause im having a problem with wubi.. When I reboot, and i select Ubuntu it says No Wubildr.. does someone know how to fix that. or what is wrong? | 12:32 |
| thunderbird | yes | 12:32 |
| coz_ | thunderbird, make sure your video drivers are installed properly | 12:32 |
| woble | thunderbird intel 965? | 12:33 |
| thunderbird | I have a Radeon 9600 | 12:33 |
| Halabund | Since I upgraded to Karmic from Jaunty, DNS lookups are unbearably slow when I connect through the university's VPN (I need to do that to access the internet). This makes Karmic almost unusable. Does anyone have any idea how to fix it? I've been already trying for 3 days now, and wasted many hours googling for a solution, but still couldn't fix it. | 12:33 |
| woble | coz_ there are no proprietary drivers in the list for me | 12:33 |
| woble | Halabund disable Ipv6 | 12:33 |
| coz_ | woble, you have intel then? | 12:33 |
| thunderbird | I've tried both fglrx and the radeon driver, but it doesn't show up in the proprietary drivers for me either | 12:33 |
| LSD|Ninja | when the installer says its "configuring apt", what is it doing exactly, "apt-get update" ot whatever? In other words, if you're on a slow network connection it'll take forever and six days? | 12:33 |
| woble | coz_ yes, intel 965 | 12:33 |
| darrenoc | hey guys can anyone give me a quick recommendation on whether to go 64bit or 32bit for karmic | 12:33 |
| coz_ | Compiz requires at least a Radeon 7000 (or M6). From the 7000 to the X1950, you can use the open source "radeon" driver. All cards newer than the X1950 must use the proprietary "fglrx" driver. | 12:33 |
| jrib | darrenoc: how much ram do you have? | 12:34 |
| darrenoc | i have a core 2 duo but always go 32bit anyway | 12:34 |
| darrenoc | jrib 2gb | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | darrenoc: if the machine can handle 64bit.. use 64bit. :) | 12:34 |
| Halabund | woble, how would I do that? The method I tried didn't help (comment #30 I think from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/417757 ) | 12:34 |
| twisted-ferrett | ello can anyone help me with a desktop problem on 9.10 please IM me | 12:34 |
| Subby83 | Has anybody managed it to install karmic without home encryption? | 12:34 |
| sdfsd | Do i bother upgrading to 9.10 ? there that many new features is it stables ? | 12:34 |
| darrenoc | compatibility issues??? | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | darrenoc: i use all 64bit on my home lan now. | 12:34 |
| Halabund | woble, (not sure it's #30, it takes ages to load any page from any new domain) | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | darrenoc: not very many thsat ive seen. | 12:34 |
| spiritof76 | darnoc I wouldn't go 64 bit with ubuntu | 12:34 |
| coz_ | sdfsd, 9.10 is passable | 12:34 |
| jrib | darrenoc: you don't really need 64bit then, but 64bit issues are pretty much non-existant now... | 12:34 |
| spiritof76 | firefox flash don't work real well | 12:34 |
| PsychoMario | i don;t have encryption... i got an option in the installation process, i chose no | 12:34 |
| darrenoc | will I see a performance boost | 12:34 |
| coz_ | sdfsd, you get new libraires and stuff but booting is ugly and messy in my opinion | 12:34 |
| Halabund | woble, No, I tried comment #32. Is that the right way to do it? | 12:35 |
| darrenoc | I develop in Java and C++.. im told il see better performance | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | darrenoc: for my video encoding - yes - i do see a boost | 12:35 |

| Subby83 | PsychoMario: I was afraid that my home is too small so I wanted to set it on my own | 12:37 |
| russss | hi, I've just upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic and the sound is broken (again). I've tried the usual steps to try and diagnose it, but it's got me stumped. (the underlying device works fine, it's a pulseaudio issue) | 12:37 |
| spiritof76 | darranoc are you upgrading or new install | 12:37 |
| Halabund | woble, how can I disable IPv6? | 12:37 |
| krishna | phixxor, in xp, i got proper portforwarding without configuring any. but here it always says "no incoming connections" | 12:37 |
| darrenoc | spiritof76 new install, im on Mint at the moment | 12:37 |
| jrib | babak: you've mixed repositories or installed .deb's manually not intended for your version of ubuntu | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: 'only supports' is missleading... | 12:37 |
| krishna | PsychoMario, my modem is not listed there :( what shall i do now ? | 12:37 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, What do you mean? | 12:37 |
| ntnrozen | ok, it took me some time to notice, but i got no Sound!, is it possible to fix that? | 12:37 |
| [OpenSys] | i put the new 9.10 and now my snd-emu10k1 was a sound very metalic, like digital sound when is playing. As i can solve this ? | 12:37 |
| PsychoMario | krishna: i dont have any expierience with modems | 12:38 |
| Thihi | Hmmm. Does anyone have any idea why ubiquity in Karmic doesn't show me my /dev/sdb (eventho gparted does)? | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: its all intel/normal hardware .. dont expect to call the company 1-800# and get any support. | 12:38 |
| phixxor | krishna: there are ways computers get around router port forwarding, such as upnp, but port forwarding will definitely work in ubuntu | 12:38 |
| LSD|Ninja | [OpenSys]: open your PC, take out the BSLive, grab an axe and smash it :P | 12:38 |
| babak | jrib: now how can install mercurial? | 12:38 |
| spiritof76 | damaroc I did upgrade from 9.04 went real smooth | 12:38 |
| thunderbird | also, I just noticed my soundcard has stopped working. this new release seems to be kinda buggy, no? | 12:38 |
| Eyesis | please help me in amarok | 12:38 |
| phixxor | krishna: google search for deluge port forwarding, and you'll probably find a good guide | 12:38 |
| Thihi | sdb is my boot disk and has my current grub2 along with two partitions with windows and karmic beta installed. | 12:38 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, Are there any tablets supported in Ubuntu? | 12:38 |
| krishna | phixxor, ok.. | 12:38 |
| === ntnrozen is now known as ntnroz | ||
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: ive seen web sites selling linux tablets.. so Yes. | 12:39 |
| phixxor | krishna: don't worry, it's usually pretty easy! | 12:39 |
| sdfsd | hah does anyones sound card work after an upgrade? | 12:39 |
| [OpenSys] | LSD|Ninja, no... i love this card, in old versions it works | 12:39 |
| obg_ | Hi, does anybody know whether it will be possible to upgrade straight from Hardy Heron LTS to Lucid Lynx LTS? | 12:39 |
| krishna | phixxor, i like deluge more than transmission... deluge has good gui :P | 12:39 |
| anatolich | URGENT! Need help with GRUB2 during Karmic installation! Please! | 12:39 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, Any chance you could point me to any... Im not looking for an artist one just for note taking | 12:39 |
| Dr_Willis | sdfsd: i always do clean installs | 12:39 |
| ntnroz | do you guys all have sound? (hp pavilion) | 12:39 |
| Subby83 | Dr_Willis: you were right, the option was "Use password for login and accessing the home directory" | 12:39 |
| LSD|Ninja | [OpenSys]: heh, every Creative PCI card has sucked in one way or another | 12:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: id have to say hit google i recall some site with '76' in the name that had linux machines | 12:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Subby83: :) thats a tad missleading I guess... | 12:39 |
| Halabund | Since I upgraded to Karmic from Jaunty, DNS lookups are unbearably slow (15-30 sec) when I connect through the university's VPN (I need to do that to access the internet). This makes Karmic almost unusable. Does anyone have any idea how to fix it? I've been already trying for 3 days now, and wasted many hours googling for a solution, but still couldn't fix it. | 12:39 |
| phixxor | krishna: heh, transmission is my favorite, but I haven't tried deluge yet. | 12:40 |
| PsychoMario | Subby83: the default settings for me are: 8.65Gb swap, 289.44Gb / | 12:40 |
| krishna | phixxor, mm! ok | 12:40 |
| Semtex | right somehow I've made my filesystem readonly | 12:40 |
| Subby83 | Dr_Willis; Yes, I thought without this option, the enrypted directory is accessed without password, and not that it isn't encrypted ;) | 12:40 |
| krishna | phixxor, do you know a way to check whether port is forwarded or not ?? | 12:41 |
| [JackD] | PsychoMario: if you ever had to use 8.65gb of swap space you machine would be slow as hell | 12:41 |
| frostburn | Halabund, use a different dns server | 12:41 |
| Thihi | Gnaaaa, this is driving me crazy :P Damn ubiquity. | 12:41 |
| Semtex | anyone how how I can make it writeable again? | 12:41 |
| aaron11 | Hello I have a burnt DVD disc and I want to upgrade from it. Does anyone here know how to upgrade from a DVD disc. Thank You! | 12:41 |
| Dr_Willis | Subby83: doing an install in virtualbox. and i dident even notice that option | 12:41 |
| thunderbird | Semtex, try a chown | 12:41 |
| PsychoMario | [JackD]: that was the default, i dont do manual partitioning | 12:41 |
| thunderbird | recursive, and target / | 12:41 |
| phixxor | krishna: sometimes bittorrent clients will let you do that in the preferences... otherwise I saw a connection-checker-torrent on the internet a while back -- you could try searching for that | 12:42 |
| [JackD] | better to have more ram and no swap ;) | 12:42 |
| cheery | gah, after all I have troubles with nvidia drivers. :( | 12:42 |
| caio | why my gnome-panel is so ugly now? http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/1355/karmicgnomepanel.png | 12:42 |
| Subby83 | Dr_Willis: But it is the default (encryption), probably it is in te final only, you said you used beta | 12:42 |
| phixxor | krishna: to actually set up port forwarding you need to log into your router, and that's what you'd need a guide for | 12:42 |
| obg_ | Semtex, word of warning though, some directories need to be owned by root. So if you do a recursive chown on the entire system, you'll eventuallt get error messages. | 12:42 |
| torjehoa | Anyone who can help me with mounting an isofile, please? | 12:42 |
| lavish | hi all! Is there anyone using remastersys on karmic? I'd like to be sure if it's supposed to work or not | 12:42 |
| obg_ | Hi, does anybody know whether it will be possible to upgrade straight from Hardy Heron LTS to Lucid Lynx LTS? | 12:42 |
| saleem | how can install winrar | 12:42 |
| cheater99 | hi guys | 12:43 |
| phixxor | torjehoa: usually it's "sudo mount -o loop isofile.iso" | 12:43 |
| jrib | !rar > saleem | 12:43 |
| ubottu | saleem, please see my private message | 12:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Subby83: i am using final iso in virualboxx and dident see the option. I did how tell it to automatcally partition the drive.. so that may bypass the question | 12:43 |
| spiritof76 | what is safe way to run fsck ? | 12:43 |
| krishna | phixxor, i entered my ip address in firefox. it asked for password and username.. i entered both.. then a page appeared.. but it had no word called "port forward" :( | 12:43 |
| cheater99 | i have just run the update manager and it has a HUGE list of updates. some of them are deselected and i can't select them. why is that? | 12:43 |
| jrib | babak: well did you do any of the things I mentioned? | 12:43 |
| Bodsda | Hi, I'm running Jaunty with dual monitors. After about 20 - 30 minutes my screens go black, like a screen saver or a power saving mode. How can I stop this or find out whats causing it? I don't think it is a setting on the monitors, I think it is a configuration issue | 12:43 |
| babak | jrib: no | 12:43 |
| Semtex | ok what the hell has happend? | 12:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Bodsda: thers the screen savers AND theres the power savers.. check both the settings for them. | 12:44 |
| thunderbird | Krishna, it might be called port triggering, forwarding, on something along these lines | 12:44 |
| phixxor | krishna: it's labeled differently for many rounters.. I think mine was under security settings or something | 12:44 |
| babak | jrib: i can't understand your mean | 12:44 |
| thunderbird | and yes, its location may also differ | 12:44 |
| Semtex | I done a distro upgrade and now eveything is read-only?!?! | 12:44 |
| penthief | I've just upgraded and my laptop can barely startup without freezing. Anyone else with this problem? | 12:44 |
| jrib | babak: pastebin the following: 1) the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list* 2) the result of « sudo apt-get update && apt-cache policy python mercurial » | 12:44 |
| Balug | I'm having a problem with wubi.. When I reboot, and i select Ubuntu it says No Wubildr.. does someone know how to fix that. or what is wrong? | 12:44 |
| Bodsda | Dr_Willis: cheers - I have changed monitor sleep from 40 mins to never. Hope this works, cheers dude | 12:44 |
| phixxor | penthief: could you describe your problem? | 12:44 |
| wsch | can somebody help me get grub working? i get no error whatsoever because it allmost immediately gives me itc CLI | 12:45 |
| spiritof76 | is fsck safe to run ? | 12:45 |
| Halabund | Since I upgraded to Karmic from Jaunty, DNS lookups are unbearably slow (15-30 sec) when I connect through the university's VPN (I need to do that to access the internet). Is anyone else seeing this problem? This makes Karmic practically unusable. Does anyone have any idea how to fix it? I've been already trying for 3 days now, and wasted many hours googling for a solution, but still couldn't fix it. | 12:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Bodsda: i noticed befor it would kick in the screen saver.. id wiggle mouse.. then it would power down the monitor. :) it can be weird | 12:45 |
| penthief | phixxor, when it boots, I get prompted for the keyring password, then it fails after connecting to Wifi | 12:45 |
| wsch | im unable to install linux.... this has NEVER happened before | 12:45 |
| krishna | phixxor, i dont have a static ip.. so it will come ? | 12:45 |
| Semtex | anybody know what the '/tmp: waiting for (null)' error i get on bootup is? | 12:45 |
| [OpenSys] | LSD|Ninja, solved... i was instaled a new mixer and removed the digital output | 12:45 |
| Bodsda | Dr_Willis: haha, that would be irritating. | 12:45 |
| torjehoa | phixxor: yes, I've gotten that far but that only makes it accessible for root, ownership of the directory changed to user #400... so I cant access it without being root | 12:45 |

| [OpenSys] | atmaslo27, i have a GeForce 9500 GT e note some better performace | 12:50 |

| aaron11 | diddy: I have the same question too | 12:50 |
| krishna | PsychoMario, possible to show ip address alone plz? | 12:50 |
| rohdef | is there other advanced dual monitor settings that can be enabled? I would say there should be more settings, than to mirror displays or not to | 12:50 |
| jrib | babak: well why are your sources.list pointing to intrepid repos if you are running jaunty then? | 12:50 |
| phixxor | krishna: hmm, try looking under all the preferences/settings for port forwarding. It should be there somewhere | 12:50 |
| shredder12 | Dr_Willis: ya, and that's why i can't even recover grub to solve the problem.... coz.. i don't have appropriate scripts | 12:50 |

| krishna | phixxor, Nokia siemens networks. . .. residential router 1600 ......... rat8hg 12vdc 700 MA ............. | 12:55 |

Don't know how to use grub2 console. ls for example is an unrecognized command. Currently in live-cd looking at grub.cfg which looks ok, but doesn't explain why grub2 loads to console rather than menu. | 13:13 |
| sassyn | Yep, I know but it want to use 2.6.31.5 with xen based kernel | 13:13 |
| jrib | cg: echo 'obase=16; 12' | b | 13:13 |
| phixxor | krishna -- you shouldn't have that many packages waiting to be upgraded... I don't know why that happened | 13:13 |
| jrib | cg: echo 'obase=16; 12' | bc | 13:13 |
| krishna | phixxor, i always install updates daily | 13:13 |
| jrib | dj_: what don't you understand exactly about the other section? | 13:14 |
| iceroot | smacfarl: i dont scroll the whole channel to see if you asked a real question before. just always use a real question and not "does anyone..." | 13:14 |
| dj_ | jrib:xrandr --addmode DVI-1 instead of dvi-1 i add vga1, but what is this dvi-0 do i get there vga-0 | 13:14 |
| rohdef | is there a command to put the displays to sleep? | 13:14 |
| iceroot | smacfarl: also see #grub | 13:14 |
| grawity | rohdef: Try xset dpms force off | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | rohdef: the xrandr command can do that also.. i think | 13:14 |
| blankhead | how do i enable automatic login in 9.10? | 13:14 |
| cba123 | For some reason, my screen gets pixelated and I don't know why, seems to be some times when I play media, karmic nvidia 190 drivers, happened when I had jaunty and 185 drivers too http://imagebin.ca/view/HN8QHY.html | 13:14 |
| smacfarl | #grub | 13:14 |
| jrib | dj_: DVI-1 is the name of your display. xrandr lists your displays | 13:14 |
| krishna | phixxor, but now, it says 380 mb to be updated... i enter your command and also entered autoremove command... but still update manager says "fix broken first" but i have no broken in synaptic | 13:14 |
| cg | jrib: it's ok if the num is lt 16 | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | blankhead: the gdm login manager config tool has a optiopn for that | 13:14 |
| jrib | cg: hmm? | 13:14 |
| rohdef | grawity, thanks :) I'll try | 13:14 |
| eross | ok I've read all the problems for karmic in the forums, anyone loving the new install? I'm still on 9.04 | 13:14 |
| blankhead | dr_willis thank you | 13:14 |
| dj_ | jrib:its vga1 but why in this example he does dvi-1 and dvi-0 | 13:15 |
| rohdef | Dr_Willis, thanks I'll look into it if the first one doesn't work | 13:15 |
| penthief | OK, this 9.10 freezing showstopper bug: If I ctrl-fX to a terminal before the network-manager starts, and killall compiz.real then unlock the default keyring, then open a terminal and run compiz in the background, everything seems to work perfectly. | 13:15 |
| ActionParsnip | eross: been fine since Alpha2 here | 13:15 |
| jrib | dj_: because that's the name of his displays | 13:15 |
| sysrpl | good god my ubuntu installl has been a nightmare | 13:15 |
| boomer84 | hey guys, my "windows" key doesnt seem to want to assign as a shortcut. Anyone got any ideas why this is? Just installed 9.10(ofc) | 13:15 |
| phixxor | krishna: could you check something for me? "less /etc/apt/sources.lst" and see if they say "jaunty" | 13:15 |
| iceroot | !bug | penthief | 13:15 |

| D3RGPS31 | i'm using the fglrx driver; 3D performance is perfect but 2D performance is aweful, video and window movement is extremely choppy; what can i do (ati r hd 4850, ubuntu 9.10 x86) xorg http://pastebin.com/m62b0aefc ; lspci http://pastebin.com/m25c231a3 | 13:15 |
| jrib | dj_: because you have one display, sure | 13:15 |
| Tiders | boomer84, Most people refer to it as the "super" key just for future reference | 13:15 |
| Dr_Willis | boomer84: because the windows key is a 'special' key. (aka super key) much like alt and ctrl. | 13:15 |
| rohdef | grawity, thanks, it works :) | 13:16 |
| boomer84 | ahh ok, super key. Cheers. | 13:16 |
| cba123 | geekk1d, You have to click the desktop or something first, that works when I click the desktop and scroll anyways. Don't much like that feature myself though. | 13:16 |
| penthief | I thought it was called the 'inferior' key. | 13:16 |
| krishna | phixxor, hey. that command told "no such file or directory" | 13:16 |
| sysrpl | what is the best irc channel to complain about koala install issues? | 13:16 |
| Dr_Willis | compiz makes a lot of use of the super-key for its special features | 13:16 |
| smacfarl | iceroot: grub channel seems to be empty. How do I debug what is happening in grub2 console? | 13:16 |
| ct529 | hi everybody! my firefox 3.0.14 and 3.5.3 have stopped automatically loading the live bookmarks when they start up .... is that normal???? | 13:16 |
| Dr_Willis | sysrpl: #/dev/null ? :) | 13:16 |
| sysrpl | because i grade the instal as a BIG FAT "F" | 13:16 |
| geekk1d | cba123, dont know mate that dose not work ! | 13:16 |
| dj_ | jrib: so i dont need to add this line xrandr --addmode DVI-0 "1680x1050_60.00" i mean vga-0 | 13:16 |
| geekk1d | anybody else can help out! | 13:16 |
| Dr_Willis | sysrpl: file bug reports is the best thing to do. | 13:16 |
| joaopinto | !ot | sysrpl | 13:16 |
| ubottu | sysrpl: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | ct529: remove the plugin then re-add it | 13:16 |
| jrib | sysrpl: it would be better to document your issues as bugs on bugs.ubuntu.com if a bug doesn't exist yet | 13:16 |
| phixxor | krishna: sorry! it should be "less /etc/apt/sources.list" | 13:16 |
| St0n3-C0l | the concept of xorg.conf has been ended in 9.10 release or what? | 13:16 |
| UbuntuLove | !inxi | 13:16 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about inxi | 13:16 |
| jrib | dj_: adding thaat line to the right file would work, yes | 13:17 |
| phixxor | krishna: this is the file that tells apt-get what upgrades to download | 13:17 |
| ct529 | <ActionParsnip> is that a known issue? | 13:17 |
| boomer84 | Dr_Willis, would I be able to assign it to launch the main menu still? | 13:17 |
| dj_ | jrib: to my file | 13:17 |
| St0n3-C0l | because I don't find any xorg.conf in /etc/X11 | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | St0n3-C0l: its been getting phased out since 9.04 :) i still have one in 9.10 | 13:17 |
| jrib | dj_: to your proper file sure... | 13:17 |
| ActionParsnip | ct529: no idea, not something i use | 13:17 |
| St0n3-C0l | Oh | 13:17 |
| Tiders | St0n3-C0l, Are you using a Nvidia Driver? | 13:17 |
| St0n3-C0l | Nope :) Intel | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | boomer84: no idea. I just use GNOME-DO and use that as a fast-launcher.. its better then the main-menu on windowskey any day | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | !info gnome-do | 13:17 |
| wsch | so since ubuntu uses grub2, i cannot get it booting anymore, im looking for a solution for 4 days, it would be nice if someone can actually try to help me | 13:17 |

| Balug | Im having a problem with Wubi Rev 160 [or actually all.] Im running windows 7, and i wanna use Wubi next to that. When Wubi wants me to reboot. i got no errors. but when i get into my bootloader and i select ubuntu i get: "Try hd(0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr" and stops working. Does someone know how i can solve this? | 13:17 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, Really they are getting rid of xorg.conf? | 13:18 |
| ActionParsnip | ct529: i thought it sounded like an addon | 13:18 |
| cba123 | geekk1d, You clicked the desktop and tried scrolling and nothing happened? Does the cube work if you do ctrl+alt+click and drag? | 13:18 |
| phixxor | Tiders: yeah I think they are | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: its been getting smaller and smaler each release of X. many of my machines dont have one at all. | 13:18 |
| LucaFerrixman | Hi everybody... | 13:18 |

| LucaFerrixman | can someone help me please? | 13:18 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, Oh sounds good.. I still have one since I used nvidia-xconfig to get my dual display going | 13:18 |
| cwillu | !ask | LucaFerrixman | 13:18 |
| ubottu | LucaFerrixman: 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. :-) | 13:18 |
| phixxor | LucaFerrixman: could you describe yoru problem for everyone? | 13:19 |
| cg | jrib: bc doesn't work with strings. it only takes care of numbers | 13:19 |

| artcore | hi | 13:20 |
| artcore | @al | 13:20 |
| geekk1d | cba123, is just that it dose not rotate on scroll. | 13:20 |
| dj_ | jrib:i think i will apply to oxford | 13:20 |
| LucaFerrixman | During set-up, the installer sees my HD as a single raid disk, even if I disabled it from BIOS. If I start the installer with the nomdraid option, the installer doesn't see my disks anymore | 13:20 |
| jrib | dj_: :) | 13:20 |
| phixxor | krishna: which means it thinks it's upgrading already | 13:20 |
| Pilif12p | hi, im trying to run cron on /usr/bin/pisg but it wont work | 13:20 |
| artcore | anybd have problems with ACPI in karmic? | 13:20 |
| cba123 | geekk1d, Does the scrolling work when you click on the desktop? | 13:20 |
| mimis | hi, how can i set a static ip? | 13:20 |
| cwillu | LucaFerrixman, was it previously set up as a raid? | 13:20 |
| ActionParsnip | mimis: you can set it in network manager | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | !satic | 13:20 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about satic | 13:20 |
| dj_ | jrib: do i need to make changes all time i log in or this one will be saved on xorg everytime i log in | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | !static | 13:20 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about static | 13:20 |
| geekk1d | cba123, no unless i hold the scroll buton down | 13:21 |
| pechenie | hey! radeon R500 users!)) i have activated KMS & DRI2 on my ATI X1600 and I finally got compiz working without any glitches, also there is finally native display resolution in TTY1-6, but there is a little bit performace loss. Is there further tips to "tune" opensource ATI radeon drivers? | 13:21 |
| artcore | mimis ifconfig xx.xx.xx.xx. netmask xx.xx.xx.xx | 13:21 |
| phixxor | krishna: try opening the file in nano and changing every instance of "karmic" back to "jaunty" | 13:21 |
| jrib | dj_: if you followed the directions there on making it permanent, then you shouldn't have to do it every time you login | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | mimis: or you can use /etc/network/interfaces file and tis guide: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 13:21 |
| Aeriel | Hi all! Anybody here is having troubleshoot with .avi reproduction after upgrading to karmic?? | 13:21 |
| wsch | so since ubuntu uses grub2, i cannot get it booting anymore, im looking for a solution for 4 days, it would be nice if someone can actually try to help me (like ive helped others) | 13:21 |
| phixxor | krishna: then run sudo apt-get update | 13:21 |
| wsch | this is getting extremely frustrating :( | 13:21 |
| Tiders | Dr_Willis, One thing I dont understand abotu Linux... Ubuntu supports so much hardware right off the bat and thats why so many people like it... Why dont OSs like Debian and CentOS try and support more as well? Wouldnt that substantially increase their users? | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | wsch: you can install grub if you prefer | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: its all about the kernels supporting 'hardware' and then the various sub sustems doing things to actually make the hardware useable. | 13:22 |
| phixxor | Tiders: one problem is many drivers aren't free software | 13:22 |
| LucaFerrixman | it was once set up as raid, but ever since I formatted it, and I was using Jaunty 'till today, no issues with it. If I start with nomdraid option in Karmic live session, GParted sees everything correctly | 13:22 |
| e204543 | hi | 13:22 |
| Aquilai | Hi, how can I set shortcuts? I have compiz running but both compiz->commands and the "System->Preferences->Keyboard shortcuts" don't seem to let me set my shortcut for "gnome-terminal" | 13:22 |
| jrib | wsch: it's not that people don't want to help you, it's that they don't know how :) | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Tiders: with identical kernel/modules the same hardware is supported by each disrto in theory | 13:22 |
| Paraj | Ubuntu 9.10 (surprise surprise). StartUp-Manager doesn't actually set GRUB2 settings and running 'sudo update-grub' after modifying /etc/default/grub doesn't work either (saves to menu.lst not grub.cfg), how do I save my configuration Grub2? | 13:22 |
| Aquilai | Well they let me set it but pressing the shortcut won't work. | 13:22 |
| artcore | anyone have karmic works fine on Acer laptops? | 13:22 |
| jrib | wsch: why not just go back to the older grub? | 13:22 |
| cwillu | artcore, acer makes a lot of laptops | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | artcore: acer makes a large varity of laptops. :) | 13:22 |
| wsch | ActionParsnip: ok how? i never had to do this before since all the other ubuntu's didnt have the crappy grub2 builtin | 13:22 |
| cwillu | artcore, works fine on mine, for what that's worth :p | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | the wife took my Netbook AAO. | 13:22 |
| Tiders | phixxor, True and I really love free software TO A POINT though... In my opinion proprietary is totally fine if its used for the companies own hardware. | 13:22 |
| wsch | jrib: even the people at #grub dunno how to help me | 13:22 |
| e204543 | i'm new her | 13:22 |
| e204543 | her | 13:23 |
| artcore | dr_willis acer 6930g | 13:23 |

| ActionParsnip | wsch: just instal it like you normally would | 13:23 |
| artcore | :) | 13:23 |

| joaopinto | !language | wsch | 13:23 |
| ubottu | wsch: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 13:23 |
| krishna | phixxor, oh! ok,. | 13:23 |
| ActionParsnip | wsch: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 13:23 |
| artcore | cwillu which model u own? | 13:23 |
| wsch | ActionParsnip: ok then i better get any ubuntu before 9.10 and install that one from scratcvh, thats how i do it normally | 13:23 |
| Tiders | phixxor, Meh all those other distributions are just stubborn xD | 13:23 |
| ActionParsnip | wsch: install grub from the repos then run the usual commands to install grub to the mbr | 13:23 |
| jrib | dj_: ubottu's page gave you other methods to "save" your resolution | 13:23 |
| protocol1 | there a way I can get UNR 9.10 to do a 1024 X 768 resolution? | 13:23 |
| St0n3-C0l | Youtube will identify on LiveCD, how intel is working. | 13:23 |
| phixxor | Tiders: it might also have something to do with Canonical having lots of money to support Ubuntu with :P idk | 13:24 |
| dj_ | jrib: Setting xrandr commands in kdm/gdm startup scripts | 13:24 |
| dj_ | Both KDM and GDM have startup scripts that are executed when X is initiated. For GDM, these are in /etc/gdm/, while for KDM this is done at /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup. In either case, you can paste in an xrandr command line string into one of these scripts. | 13:24 |
| dj_ | This process requires root access and mucking around in system config files, but will take effect earlier in the startup process than using .xprofile, and will apply to all users including the login screen. | 13:24 |
| wsch | joaopinto: erm, what did i say wrong mister policeman? | 13:24 |
| FloodBot2 | dj_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 13:24 |
| St0n3-C0l | protocol1: It should, tried out Display settings? Or Screen Size? | 13:24 |
| ActionParsnip | protocol1: install and configure video drivers | 13:24 |
| wsch | ActionParsnip: the problem is i only want it on a partition? | 13:24 |
| wsch | ActionParsnip: sorry i should have been more clear about that | 13:24 |
| cba123 | geekk1d, It might be hard to get that to work to be honest, since most programs use scrolling, you'd probably have to disable scrolling globally. | 13:24 |
| jrib | !grub > wsch | 13:24 |
| ubottu | wsch, please see my private message | 13:24 |
| smacfarl | when in grub2 console ls is unrecognized command. How does grub2 find a cfg file? | 13:24 |
| jrib | wsch: you should be able to just use something like super grub disk, no? | 13:25 |
| joaopinto | wsch, calling "crappy" to someone elses work is not friendly | 13:25 |
| Bodsda | smacfarl: grub has a 'find' command | 13:25 |
| ct529 | anyone using live bookmarks on ubuntu? | 13:25 |
| protocol1 | ActionParsnip, I did install nvidia drivers 185 but I only see 640 X 480 | 13:25 |

| wsch | joaopinto: hahahahahahhahahaahahhaahahahah | 13:25 |
| Paraj | Shouldn't be this difficult to save a GRUB2 config.... | 13:25 |
| geekk1d | cba123, I had this on 9.04 no problem. | 13:25 |
| Aquilai | Hi, how can I set shortcuts? I have compiz running but both compiz->commands and the "System->Preferences->Keyboard shortcuts" don't seem to let me use my shortcut for "gnome-terminal". | 13:25 |
| Tiders | phixxor, True... I read that the owner of Conical is loaded and thats why they are able to send away free CDs right? xD | 13:25 |
| boomer84 | Bala, suspend and resume is a real hit and miss thing | 13:25 |
| LucaFerrixman | noone can help me about it? how can I solve this raid problem? | 13:25 |

| artcore | i have a problem with acpi - when i'm switch acpi off on boot when wireless and LAN is works, if acpi still enabled(by default) i have no any network | 13:26 |
| mimis | ActionParsnip: if i write sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces it appears: auto lo | 13:26 |
| mimis | iface lo inet loopback | 13:26 |
| Paraj | If I want to change basic Grub2 option I edit /etc/default/grub and run 'sudo update-grub' right? What happens when that doesn't work? | 13:26 |
| dj_ | jrib: i will apply to area 51 | 13:26 |
| phixxor | artcore: soundsl ike you need to configure your boot so it uses noapic every time | 13:26 |
| wsch | jrib: dunno about superdisk didnt try | 13:26 |
| dany__ | anyone alse getting errors when downloadinf from package manager to 9.10? | 13:26 |

| moDumass | hey all, does anyone know of a white noise or rain sound generator in lunix? for people that have tinnitus? | 13:27 |
| artcore | phixxor i have a laptop and i need in acpi :) | 13:27 |
| wsch | jrib: but then i still need to get grub installed, i cant allways boot from a cd lol | 13:27 |
| Bodsda | Paraj: I believe it is /boot/grub/grub.cfg although I am not sure as I still use the old grub. But a change to the menu does not require you to run the update command | 13:27 |
| jrib | wsch: that was just my suggestion to get back to grub 1 easily | 13:27 |
| phixxor | artcore: oh, in that case, idk. Good luck@ | 13:27 |
| Paraj | Bodsa: Can't modify it directly anymore apparently | 13:27 |
| jrib | wsch: you would use it to install grub1 | 13:27 |
| zysoft | Hi all, did anyone found a iwlagn fix for 2.6.31-14 kernel about the MAC is in deep sleep ? downgrade to 2.6.31-12 works, but it might be possible to run it on the latest kernel | 13:27 |
| wsch | jrib: oh, i can also boot a liveCD and if its needed i can chroot into my system aswell | 13:27 |
| kankan_ | Bodsda:do you use karmic or what? | 13:27 |
| artcore | zysoft i have a same problem | 13:27 |
| Bodsda | Paraj: well that sucks :) | 13:28 |
| Bodsda | kankan_: no, Im on jaunty. I will upgrade 1 month after initial release | 13:28 |
| artcore | strange that ubuntu hase released distro wuth buggy kernel | 13:28 |
| Paraj | Bodsa: No kidding, I use Linux to not be treated like a child perhaps I should just go back to Debian... | 13:28 |
| Bodsda | artcore: the kernel is not buggy afaik. And if it was there is nothing stopping you from reverting to an older kernel | 13:28 |
| zysoft | artcore did you find something? I saw a fix to iwlagn source, but still dunno how to rebuild it | 13:28 |
| phixxor | krishna: sorry, but I have to go. Good luck with everything! | 13:29 |
| Bodsda | Paraj: they will have the same downfalls. May I suggest Arch, Slackware, Gentoo or a custom LFS | 13:29 |
| randomtime | Hey, I've just upgraded from Windows XP to 9.10 :) - Just a copule of annoying details, everything else is very smooth. My middle mouse scroll wheel works but if I press it I can't get it to scroll up or down automatically with the mouse | 13:29 |
| artcore | zysoft only that i have done that on boot switch acpi off | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | you dont modify /boot/grub/grub.cfg directly for a REASON.. it get overwritten when you run update-grub so you changes get lost | 13:29 |
| zysoft | artcore how did you do that? | 13:29 |
| Paraj | Bodsa: I use Ubuntu because I couldn't be bothered to spend my time configuring Debian, so if it's not Ubuntu then it's going to be Debian :P | 13:29 |
| zysoft | I don't know the kernel flags well | 13:29 |
| Paraj | Still, I just want to save my damn Grub configuration using the methods outlined in the wiki, but it doesn't work | 13:30 |
| Bodsda | Dr_Willis: so what is the equivilant of /boot/grub/menu.lst? | 13:30 |
| Younder | now i claims pygtk isn't istalled. But wings IDE which uses it runs | 13:30 |
| Dr_Willis | if you want to alter the grub.cfg properly edit the proper grub config files so they work with the update-grub system | 13:30 |
| Younder | sigh | 13:30 |
| artcore | zysoft: on boot menu press E and add after kernel options acpi=off | 13:30 |
| Bodsda | Paraj: revert to Grub1 | 13:30 |
| wsch | jrib: i dunno how to install grub1 | 13:30 |
| wsch | jrib: and i cannot find it in your links | 13:30 |
| wsch | i dont even know if the links are about grub1 or grub2 | 13:30 |
| Paraj | Dr_Willis: I did that, update-grub doesn't update the grub.cfg file and the GUI StartUp-Manager does nothing either | 13:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Bodsda that Is the equilivent. but you dont edit it directly. If you want to add an entry to it. you make one in /etc/grub.d/##_whatever | 13:30 |
| kankan_ | i am having a major problem.happening all the time.whenever i switch on my pc and right after selection ubuntu from GRUB menu the screen gets blanc | 13:30 |
| wsch | this is all extremely confusing | 13:30 |
| artcore | zysoft: fedora 11 works fine on my laptop | 13:30 |
| zysoft | artcore, true, thanks | 13:30 |
| bala | wsch: apt-get install grub | 13:30 |
| Younder | the system installer is called grub not grub1 | 13:30 |
| zysoft | artcore, but I love ubuntu :) | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: gui startup-manager is obsolete now . and you did rerun update-grub after making the file? | 13:31 |
| bala | wsch: that should get you the old grub | 13:31 |
| Bodsda | Dr_Willis: I'll stick to Grub1 thanks. Works fine for me | 13:31 |
| artcore | ubuntu as ussualy - still buggy | 13:31 |
| protocol1 | I have an nvidia 6200 series card...which would work better driver version 173 185 or 96? | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: ive added my own entries to the grub2 menus this way | 13:31 |
| wsch | bala: thats it, it configures on its own? | 13:31 |
| protocol1 | I am currently using 185 | 13:31 |
| Paraj | Dr_Willis: If you read what I said, I said I ran 'sudo update-grub' after editing the file | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Bodsda: i will stick with grub2 now that i got it booting ISO files.. | 13:31 |
| Bodsda | artcore: you are free to use something else if you dont like it. There will always be bugs straight after a release | 13:31 |
| artcore | zysoft: i think you love nice interface :) | 13:31 |
| Paraj | Dr_Willis: It updated menu.lst not grub.cfg | 13:31 |
| Bodsda | Dr_Willis: touche | 13:31 |
| bala | wsch: yup | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: you made the file EXECUTABLE ? :) like the docs say? | 13:31 |
| web5|org|ua | where is xorg.conf in 9.10 ? | 13:31 |
| Younder | My mode is to fix it | 13:31 |
| wsch | bala: ok and theres no problem to do this from chroot? | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: if you have a menu.lst - then somthing is odd. and you got parts of grub1 there. | 13:31 |
| morydd | my wireless connection worked last night after upgrading to 9.10 today when I run "ifup eth1" I get "wpa_supplicant: /sbin/wpa_supplicant daemon failed to start" | 13:32 |
| bala | wsch: it will remove your grub-pc package and install the old one | 13:32 |
| JoshuaL | how to restart sound services? | 13:32 |
| zysoft | artcore really? So what's the difference between gnome on fedora and ubuntu? theme? ha | 13:32 |
| Bodsda | web5|org|ua: It does not exist by default, as in 9.04. You can create one if you like | 13:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: i got no menu.lst at all on any of my 3 machines. | 13:32 |
| wsch | bala: perfect, thats what i ewant, and can i do it from a chroot env ? | 13:32 |
| Paraj | Dr_Willis: Did a fresh install so I don't understand why update-grub is making it there | 13:32 |
| bala | wsch: no, just make sure that your /dev and /proc are mounted at the right places | 13:32 |
| D3RGPS31 | i'm using the fglrx driver; 3D performance is perfect but 2D performance is aweful, video and window movement is extremely choppy; what can i do (ati r hd 4850, ubuntu 9.10 x86) xorg http://pastebin.com/m62b0aefc ; lspci http://pastebin.com/m25c231a3 | 13:32 |
| artcore | zysoft: ubuntu a little bit nicer than fedora | 13:32 |
| wsch | bala: the only way to get into my installed system is chrooting in from a liveCD | 13:32 |
| LucaFerrixman | How can I install Ubuntu Karmic Koala on a system with no RAID controller configured, but with Ubuntu pretending I have one, and if I start the installer with the "NODMRAID" option, the installer doesn't see my two hard disks anymore? | 13:32 |
| protocol1 | I have an nvidia 6200 series card...which would work better driver version 173 185 or 96? | 13:32 |
| artcore | opensolaris is nice too | 13:32 |
| web5|org|ua | Bodsda: ok, but where is now stored info for display and xserver ? | 13:32 |
| bala | wsch: yup. i screwed up my grub2 install yesterday and fixed it with 8.04 | 13:33 |
| Bodsda | artcore: this is not the place to discuss distro's please take it elsewhere | 13:33 |
| wsch | bala: could you tell me how please? just so im sure | 13:33 |
| bala | wsch: live cd, that is. | 13:33 |
| Bodsda | web5|org|ua: I am not sure. But the best way to influence it is to create an xorg.conf in /etc/X11/ | 13:33 |
| wsch | bala: the /proc and /dev part especially | 13:33 |
| artcore | bodsda: sorry but this kernel bug affects many laptops | 13:33 |
| wsch | the rest shouldnt be a problem | 13:33 |
| bala | wsch: just a sec, | 13:33 |
| zysoft | artcore I tried arch, fedora, plain debian, open suse, open solaris and some others. I found that ubuntu looks good for my development purposes. It has a lot of thing done that you usually do by hand. And it's fast | 13:33 |
| artcore | i'm not alone with tis kind of problem | 13:33 |
| wsch | bala: sure | 13:33 |
| Younder | I disagree. This IS the place to discuss the distro | 13:34 |
| Bodsda | artcore: this is also not the place to discuss kernel issues. This is for ubuntu support. Not Linux programming | 13:34 |
| Paraj | Dr_Willis: Even when I delete menu.lst 'update-grub' keeps wanting to make a new one instead of grub.cfg >.< | 13:34 |
| artcore | zysoft: u r right | 13:34 |
| Younder | or errors in it at any rate | 13:34 |
| artcore | ubuntu support? | 13:34 |
| artcore | here? | 13:34 |

| psinetic | i'm on ubuntu 9.10 trying to play songs on rhythmbox. it keeps telling me i need some windows codec? | 13:34 |
| Bodsda | Younder: 'this' distro can be 'discussed' in #ubuntu-offtopic. Support can be found here | 13:34 |
| bala | wsch: sudo mount --bind /proc /pathtoyourchroot_root/proc | 13:34 |
| pticochon | hi | 13:35 |
| LucaFerrixman | thank you very much... you've been of no help at all... | 13:35 |
| bala | wsch: likewise for /dev | 13:35 |
| Bodsda | psinetic: no, you need media codecs | 13:35 |
| pticochon | my sound doesn't work with 9.10 ubuntu | 13:35 |
| pticochon | just upgraded to that version | 13:35 |
| Younder | But a buggy distro is on topic | 13:35 |
| artcore | i'm still googling and reading forums about acpi problems but ubuntu guys are very busy to make a patch | 13:35 |
| pticochon | well, doesn't work "well" | 13:35 |
| psinetic | bodsda, ok from where? | 13:35 |
| Younder | not off-topic | 13:35 |
| wsch | bala: ok thanx | 13:35 |
| ikonia | Younder: do you have a support question ? | 13:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: sounds like you some how got the grub-legacy older grub installed. | 13:35 |
| pticochon | anyone with this problem too? | 13:35 |
| protocol1 | there a way I can force 1024 X 768 with my nvidia 185 driver? | 13:35 |
| Bodsda | psinetic: installing vlc is the easiest option. Or you can install the gstreamer packages | 13:35 |

| Bodsda | Thundercross: you would have to check the release notes for a full description | 13:39 |
| wsch | bala: it did over here anyway, from the CD | 13:39 |
| nperry | Thundercross: Grub2 has had a total recode, so more efficent! | 13:39 |

| damagednoob | newly upgraded gnome koala, the brightness on my gateway laptop keeps changing on it's own. If I hibernate it, when the machine comes back up, the brightness has changed. | 13:47 |
| damagednoob | is it related to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/415023 | 13:47 |
| nicklas_ | Dr_Willis, ubuntu one is a monthly cost, it might be better and more economical too buy an external hdd or a big usb memory or somehing | 13:47 |
| Younder | it isn't distributed with ubuntu as the source code is propriatary | 13:47 |

| Bodsda | sysrpl: you could grab the package from packages.ubuntu.com -- the Ubuntu mirrors are still being hit very hard at the moment. Slow speeds are expected | 13:48 |
| nicklas_ | Dr_Willis, hm | 13:48 |
| artcore | one more --> mentr | 13:48 |

| Younder | Paraj, Why do you need to update grub? | 13:48 |
| Paraj | Younder: I'm trying to change my configuration | 13:49 |
| artcore | this will affect wifi and/or eth | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: just type that command (with sudo) but on my systems at least the 2 commands update-grub and update-grub2 are the same script | 13:49 |
| Paraj | Dr_Willis: As I said, that doesn't work :/ | 13:49 |
| toogreen_ | ActionParsnip, sorry, got dc for some reason... Should I just install Envy? | 13:49 |

| ActionParsnip | toogreen: ok then run: sudo apt-get install nvidia-185-modaliases nvidia-glx-185 | 13:49 |
| Younder | Paraj, So.. you can do that from grub | 13:49 |
| Mallarky | Can i get some help installing a router. I cannot connect to it. If i ping it it says network is unreachable. Not router or cable. | 13:49 |

| diddy | Where can the alternate CD for 9.10 be downloaded? | 13:49 |
| thunderbird | hi | 13:49 |
| artcore | ubuntu+laptop | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: at least i think thy are the same.. double checking | 13:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Mallarky: i'd ask in #networking | 13:50 |
| diddy | I would like to encrypt the OS. | 13:50 |
| thunderbird | can anyone help me get an ATI Radeon 9600 working on Karmic? | 13:50 |
| Bodsda | Dr_Willis: run a 'dff' on both the files | 13:50 |
| Mallarky | ty | 13:50 |
| Paraj | Dr_Willis: Well update-grub2 isn't even on my system :/ | 13:50 |
| Bodsda | diff* | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | cat /usr/sbin/update-grub2 | 13:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Mallarky: all i can suggest is make sure your adapter gets dhcp | 13:50 |
| m3F | iceroot: i do not know what else to say, i always have these surround problems in Ubuntu/Kubuntu | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | ---> exec update-grub "$@" | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 13:50 |
| toogreen_ | ActionParsnip, ok, its installing, thanks | 13:50 |
| artcore | diddy: what you mean? | 13:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Mallarky: you may need to use a cable to initially set it up | 13:50 |
| Paraj | When I edit /etc/default/grub and run 'sudo update-grub' it decides to make a menu.lst instead of a grub.cfg | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Bodsda: one just calls the other. heh | 13:50 |
| pechenie | thunderbird, whats wrong? | 13:50 |
| wsch | bala: was it you who was helping me a bit earlyer with my grbu problem? sorry if it was not you, i dont recall the nickname | 13:50 |
| diddy | I am looking for the Ubuntu 9.10 alternate CD that allows full OS encryption. | 13:50 |
| thunderbird | I can't get the desktop effects working, and I've tried radeon and fglrx | 13:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: sounds like gurb2 for some reason is not installed.. | 13:51 |
| diddy | I can not find the link. | 13:51 |
| m3F | iceroot: now in Ubuntu everything is ok if i configure the daemon.conf and set 4 channels | 13:51 |
| Paraj | So my configuration isn't actually saved, and I'm running Grub 1.93 because when I boot the version is as clear as day | 13:51 |
| leachim6 | any ideas? | 13:51 |
| Bodsda | Dr_Willis: how utterly pointless. My guess it is there for future expansion and compatibility | 13:51 |
| bala | wsch: yup | 13:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Paraj: but some how it got installed to the mbr.. | 13:51 |
| wsch | bala: in that case: | 13:51 |
| wsch | $ sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext4' | 13:51 |
| morydd | artcore: that seems to have done the trick | 13:51 |

| Dr_Willis | Bodsda: or for ease of removeale later.. | 13:51 |
| artcore | diddy: you can only encrypt partition or folder or file | 13:51 |
| thunderbird | pechenie, I can't get the desktop effects working, and I've tried radeon and fglrx | 13:51 |
| Bodsda | Dr_Willis: true | 13:51 |
| bala | wsch: ah | 13:51 |
| artcore | morydd: it is ok now? | 13:51 |
| Mallarky | ActionPartnership I am using a cable | 13:51 |
| wsch | bala: can i do this from 9.10 aswell? | 13:51 |
| Paraj | Dr_Willis: Meh, I'll just try installing the whole thing again | 13:52 |
| morydd | artcore: network is functional | 13:52 |
| dalton2345 | hi everyone, so how is karmic? | 13:52 |
| bala | wsch: i believe so. | 13:52 |
| artcore | morydd: i think we must wait for kernel update | 13:52 |
| m3F | iceroot: how can i tell phonon to send audio to both channels, front and rear? because it does not happen with the configuration i have | 13:52 |
| diddy | artcore, what? They changed it? I always encrypted everything. | 13:52 |
| mentr | Fresh Karmic install, after updates + reboot > wired network gone... how do i get it back | 13:52 |
| wsch | bala: just sudo apt-gt install grub it wa right? | 13:52 |
| bala | wsch: you will need some live cd with ext4 support, 9.10 should be good for that. | 13:52 |
| thunderbird | dalton2345, bit unfriendly to hardware IMHO | 13:52 |
| artcore | diddy: you mean files? | 13:52 |
| bala | wsch: yup | 13:52 |
| wsch | bala: ok c u in a bit | 13:52 |
| * wsch reboots | 13:52 | |
| bala | wsch: | 13:52 |
| anstei | i just upgraded to 9.10, now the encryption of my home dir is broken, "ERROR: Encrypted private directory is not setup properly" -- what can i do? | 13:52 |
| Shockrates | does anyone use sagemath? | 13:52 |
| dalton2345 | thunderbird: ouch, thats not good | 13:53 |
| ActionParsnip | wsch: i recommend you make a subfolder in /mnt and mount to that | 13:53 |
| ugur | hi all. I have upgraded from jaunty to karmic and i want to compile virtualbox with new kernel but when i run /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup it says : Your kernel source for kernel 2.6.31-14-generic cannot be found | 13:53 |
| bala | wsch: and you can force it to install on any hdd, | 13:53 |
| diddy | artcore, with the alternate CD you used to be able to encrypt the entire operating system. You couldn't boot without entering a decryption password. | 13:53 |
| bala | wsch: by using grub-install /dev/yourhdd | 13:53 |
| Bodsda | I know this is unsupported at the moment but is there any plans for Ubuntu to provide a downgrade option? | 13:53 |
| ActionParsnip | wsch: you may need to use the -t option to specify the file system type | 13:53 |
| sysrpl | when i installed from from a cd (burned from a downloaded iso), it took forever to get past that little white ubuntu symbol in the middle of the screen, then it went to a text mode screen for a minute, then the screen when black and everything stopped working | 13:53 |
| artcore | diddy: it is encrypted filesystem | 13:53 |
| diddy | artcore, correct. | 13:53 |
| bala | wsch: still there? | 13:53 |
| bazhang | sysrpl, tried in recovery mode? any bootoptions? | 13:53 |

| lukas__ | Hi all, I've just succeded in installing 9.10 on my desktop. It uses and old and borken CRT that fails to send the correct edid, but I managed to create a working modeline with cvt for 1024x768. is there any way I can get Ubuntu to use this mode as early as during the boot process and the login screen? in 800x600, it's all quite unusable to me | 14:04 |
| zob | anyone else having problems with flash on the new 9.10, 64bit (only when compiz is turned on - and embedded videos in particular)? Fx. this site: http://www.linuxhaxor.net/ | 14:04 |

| Athanasios | My problem is that the video card drivers from the software center dont work, so i downloaded a driver from ati and got a .run file, when i then open it, "Run in Terminal" as an executable, it uncompresses, and then when installing i get an message saying, "you need to run this as a super-user" then it exits the terminal. Can someone help? | 14:06 |
| doos | zob: yes, but only with the flash controls (youtube etc) | 14:06 |
| revant | zob: then switch to metacity for a while when you watching youtube | 14:06 |
| epinky | Athanasios: use sudo | 14:07 |
| kahen | i'm puzzled. who the heck decided that traceroute6 should be included in karmic, but not traceroute?! | 14:07 |
| Younder | Athanasios, so run it as supersuser, use sudo su | 14:07 |
| wsch | aguitel: and how can i make sure grub installas to my partirion only? | 14:07 |
| Shockrates | Athanasios: ela re athanasie ubuntiane | 14:07 |
| Paraj | kahen: a genius :P | 14:07 |
| wsch | aguitel: i dont want it on my MBR | 14:07 |
| Athanasios | i cant use sudo | 14:07 |
| johnmn3 | hi. I'm at a loss. I can't figure out what's wrong with apt | 14:07 |
| zob | doos, yes flash controls on youtube site, but can't play embedded videos unless i switch off compiz | 14:07 |
| Younder | Athanasios, ? | 14:07 |
| epinky | Athanasios: why? | 14:07 |
| Athanasios | i open the file from the file browser into the terminal | 14:07 |
| johnmn3 | I'll do a "sudo aptitude install vlc" for instance | 14:08 |
| revant | zob: Its because of nvidia binary drivers | 14:08 |
| zob | revant, how is the easy way to switch to metacity? Is that the compiz-switch? | 14:08 |
| Paraj | apt-get | 14:08 |
| johnmn3 | Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "vlc" | 14:08 |
| lukas__ | anybody? Help with setting custom modes for intel/kms during boot? | 14:08 |
| aguitel | wsch, i think you need in mbr to normal boot | 14:08 |
| epinky | Athanasios: use command line interface | 14:08 |
| zob | revant, ok. so a nvidia driver update might help? | 14:08 |
| revant | yes with the fusion-icon its on the fly | 14:08 |
| pronoy | johnmn3: have you enabled the repositories ? | 14:08 |
| doos | zob: same here, ati video though | 14:08 |
| Rumo | hi out there... Im trying to activate USB's at SUN virtualBox but without success... | 14:09 |
| wsch | aguitel: i got another bootloader on my MBR, with that one i can start grub on a partirion, it worked like that before | 14:09 |
| sysrpl | why would setup use 2048x1526 as the default resolution? that is very stupid | 14:09 |
| revant | no.. Driver is updated at Nvidia's will :) | 14:09 |
| wsch | bala: still around? | 14:09 |
| sysrpl | most lcds can't support that | 14:09 |
| Athanasios | how do i open the file from the terminal so i can use sudo? | 14:09 |
| johnmn3 | pronoy: I'm pretty sure.. from the sources gui tool | 14:09 |
| kahen | keyserver.ubuntu.com is insanely slow at the moment O_o | 14:09 |
| johnmn3 | using apt-get: E: Couldn't find package vlc | 14:09 |
| pronoy | johnmn3: do sudo apt-get update | 14:09 |
| aguitel | wsch, what bootloader? | 14:09 |
| revant | zob: sudo apt-get install fusion-icon | 14:09 |
| wsch | aguitel: BCD (windows) | 14:10 |
| zob | doos, it seems we are more people with that problem, so I guess someone will be looking for a fix soon. In the meantime compiz-switch is helpful. | 14:10 |
| Younder | revant, nvidea drivers seem reliable to me | 14:10 |

| Younder | they are not part of the ubuntu distribution though | 14:10 |
| Athanasios | .run | 14:10 |
| sysrpl | why would setup use 2048x1526 as the default resolution? that is very stupid. most lcds can't support that and just go black during setup after 15 minutes, once ubuntu reaches the setup configuration screen | 14:10 |

| CrazyTux | I've googled and found lots of results in regards to this, but no specific solution as of yuet | 14:12 |
| CrazyTux | yet* | 14:12 |
| sharperguy | What command needs to be running to display the volume control in the notification area? | 14:12 |
| CrazyTux | So I thought I'd stop in here, anyone else experience this same behavior / know of a fix? | 14:12 |
| Younder | CrazyTux, get a new mouse | 14:12 |
| CrazyTux | Younder: this is a $120.00 brand new mouse | 14:13 |

| CrazyTux | pechenie: on the SAME hardware | 14:15 |
| johni | epinky, here is my wpa_supplicant log : http://pastebin.com/m29dd868c | 14:15 |
| CrazyTux | pechenie: and this is a brand new like $120.00 mouse | 14:15 |
| pechenie | <CrazyTux> that's strange... | 14:15 |
| johni | epinky, not sure why the association fails :( | 14:15 |
| wsch | bala: also my repos are broken, i cannot do apt-get update (and yes this is a clean install.....) | 14:15 |
| bala | wsch: that sounds odd, because, i had already upgraded to 9.10 when this happened, | 14:15 |
| Rumo | DexterLB: home ubuntu guest winXP | 14:15 |
| sysrpl | pronoy: so don't what? | 14:16 |
| zob | revant, yes I can play youtube when I switch off compiz, so it's not about life and death, just slightly annoying. | 14:16 |
| wsch | bala: i have a clean isntall, not a upgrade | 14:16 |
| DexterLB | Rumo: and what USB device do you want to attach? | 14:16 |
| wsch | what in gods name happened to ubuntu :( | 14:16 |
| pronoy | sysrpl: don't use it as the default resolution... ! | 14:16 |
| DexterLB | reboot brb | 14:16 |
| wsch | im really concerned i cannot ever use linux anymore other then in a virtual machien | 14:16 |
| pronoy | wsch: it got better :D | 14:16 |
| bala | wsch: that is true, my repos were already pointing to 9.10 when i did this, so the grub package must have come from there. | 14:16 |
| sysrpl | pronoy: i wasn't offered a choice | 14:16 |
| epinky | johni: pre-shared key may be incorrect | 14:16 |
| pronoy | sysrpl: boot into recovery and try recoverx | 14:17 |
| epinky | johni: post wpa_supplicant.conf | 14:17 |
| bala | wsch: anyway, another option is to manually download the package from ubuntu archives site, and install it using dpkg | 14:17 |
| Rumo | DexterLB: i have 3 devices , usb-stick, camera and modem | 14:17 |
| pronoy | sysrpl: or fix x | 14:17 |
| wsch | bala: good idea | 14:17 |
| sysrpl | pronoy: setup just runs for 15 minutes, dumps to a text scren, then everything goes black and all the drives stop spinning | 14:17 |
| johni | epinky, did not change the configuration from 9.04 and rechecked to make sure (with wpa_passphrase) that it still matches | 14:17 |
| sysrpl | pronoy: this was during setup | 14:17 |
| pronoy | sysrpl: ok so you haven't installed ubuntu then have you ? | 14:17 |
| wsch | where can i report broken crapmirrors plese? | 14:17 |

| pronoy | sysrpl: 1st you'll be able to install ubuntu(hopefully). there is a serial port other than the graphics card, native to the motherboard | 14:24 |
| wsch | and on top of that grub2 installs broken by default if you choose a partition instead of MBR | 14:24 |
| bazhang | wsch, at this point in time sure | 14:24 |
| pronoy | sysrpl: plug your monitor into that | 14:24 |
| Nauser | wsch oh really? I was going to upgrade too ... thanks | 14:24 |

| Paraj | wsch: What version of grub are you running currently? Do a 'grub-install -v' | 14:25 |
| pronoy | !upgrade | FLJohn | 14:25 |
| ubottu | FLJohn: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 14:25 |
| SkyHigh | >_> like wat the differences?? | 14:25 |
| sysrpl | pronoy: why are you assuming i have a seial port other than the graphics card on my system. i don't | 14:25 |
| artcore | Nauser: not totally :) | 14:25 |
| wsch | Paraj: first things first, i need to fix me repositories or i can forget about using ubuntu | 14:25 |
| DexterLB | Rumo: did you try right-clicking the USB icon in the VirtualBox system tray? | 14:25 |
| BlouBlou | emma: because people normally hates pidgin, and Canonical changes to another one... what is better, yes, but *new* version, don't change by old version, it hasn't got anything :s | 14:25 |
| bradpitt | Exile : what do ya want to install? | 14:25 |
| wsch | bala: i cannot find any working repos, can you just tell me which one you use? | 14:25 |
| pronoy | sysrpl: the motherboard usually is equipped with one. | 14:25 |

| HorizonXP | hey, my touchpad is shaky since upgrading to karmic. any ideas on how to fix it? | 14:27 |
| pronoy | sysrpl: ok sorry then, that was the only solution i could think of. Try posting your question again. and the resolution you mentioned ins' the default resolution btw | 14:27 |
| computa_mike1 | I was thinking about installink Karmic on my system - I have a separate Home partition which I already use for jackelope - are there any special installation instructions? | 14:27 |
| Paraj | Well I fixed my problem, even though Grub2 was booting I still had Grub1 crap around (even on a complete fresh install? mbr?) so following the upgrade process to grub to grub2 worked | 14:27 |
| bazhang | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/440233 D3RGPS31 could be this | 14:27 |

| DexterLB | Rumo: ok | 14:27 |
| D3RGPS31 | bazhang thank you | 14:28 |
| Paraj | Must have selected the wrong bootloader options during install :/ | 14:28 |

| Paraj | Dr_Willis: Thank you for responding :) | 14:28 |
| henux | joaopinto: how not reliable? | 14:28 |
| sysrpl | why would setup use 2048x1526 as the default resolution? that is very stupid. most lcds can't support that and just go black during setup after 15 minutes, once ubuntu reaches the setup configuration screen. an NO i don't have integrated video on my mobo, onan nvidia card | 14:28 |
| johni | epinky, any ideas ? | 14:28 |
| DexterLB | Rumo: /join #vbox | 14:28 |

| ubuntard | Why cant ubuntu's udev keep a static ip address | 14:28 |
| epinky | proto=RSN | 14:28 |
| bazhang | cornwall, was this an upgrade from jaunty to karmic (the apport bug) | 14:28 |

| ubuntard | I have to do the eth0 eth1 eth2 eth3 bullshit each time | 14:29 |
| DexterLB | anyone else experiencing very slow DNS lookups on karmic? | 14:29 |

| mave83 | how to make the right screen to primary on a dual screen setup? (its allways the left one) | 14:29 |
| ubuntard | I can't believe that shits not fixed | 14:29 |
| preecher | after upgrading to 9.10 i lost 2 progs and they arent listed in ubuntu software center or synaptic--they are wireshark root and zenmap root--does anyone know how i can get them back or will i be better to go back with u 9.04 | 14:29 |
| bazhang | ubuntard, watch the language | 14:29 |
| ubuntard | even when you set it thru the network mgr | 14:29 |
| DexterLB | Rumo: go to the #vbox chat room and ask there | 14:29 |
| KiiK | Hi, how to remove all folder (but not remove files in dir) with command | 14:29 |
| cornwall | bazhang, Apport is "gathering information" as we speak (first time it has done that: Usually it just fails) | 14:29 |
| epinky | johni: also just put your clear text pass-phrase between "" | 14:29 |
| usser | mave83, move the monitors around :) | 14:29 |
| Rumo | DexterLB: ok | 14:29 |
| Rumo | DexterLB: thank you a lot! | 14:29 |
| usser | KiiK, with find | 14:29 |
| bratiz | i did rm * .rar insted of *.rar how can i get othr files back_ | 14:30 |
| Prage | can I repeat a question? | 14:30 |
| fliebel | Would "logical" and "mount point: /" be good for a dualboot system? overwriting 9.10 over 9.04 | 14:30 |
| DexterLB | Rumo: Don't mention it, I did nothing :( | 14:30 |
| bazhang | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/update-manager/+bug/465619 cornwall might be this | 14:30 |
| mave83 | i tryed this, but this will only cause my desktop to be wrong (i have to move windows to the wrong side and the Gnome Panel is still on the wrong screen ;() | 14:30 |
| Exile | <joaopinto> do you know how I would install the old 'add/remove' thingy? | 14:30 |
| Nalleman | hi, i would like to start all over with ubuntu. Whipe out my present distro and make a fresh install. how should I do? | 14:30 |
| llutz | bratiz: get your backup, restore the files | 14:30 |
| epinky | johni: psk="myclearpasswd" | 14:30 |
| sysrpl | why would setup use 2048x1526 as the default resolution? that is very stupid. most lcds can't support that and just go black during setup after 15 minutes, once ubuntu reaches the setup configuration screen. an NO i don't have integrated video on my mobo, onan nvidia card | 14:30 |
| cornwall | bazhang, is apport not supposed to be enabled? :-) | 14:30 |
| D3RGPS31 | bazhang: that link wasn't about 2d acceleration :c | 14:30 |
| bazhang | Nalleman, get the iso, burn to cd then boot from cd | 14:31 |
| johni | epinky, let me try :) | 14:31 |
| vika23 | i was wondering why network manager does not up my nic , i have to use ip link set dev eth0 up , every time after boot | 14:31 |
| splashote | hey, i get a screeninit failed after trying to downgrade X following this guide http://tan-com.com/posts/technology/fix-ubuntu-904-ati-driver-issue | 14:31 |
| Nalleman | bazhang, will it be no problem with grub? | 14:31 |
| bratiz | !!!! i have lost all my files in download dir | 14:31 |
| wsch | bala: ok i finally got working repos | 14:31 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 14:31 |
| bratiz | is no way for fixing__ | 14:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Nalleman: backup anything impornatnat.. boot install cd.. and reformat/reinstall is one way... | 14:31 |
| bazhang | D3RGPS31, you can look at that site, and then look for others, or file a bug yourself | 14:31 |
| usser | KiiK, ie find /path/to/lookin -type d -exec rm -r {} \; BE CAREFUL, rm -r is dangerous combined with find especially, dont run this command i wrote if you dont understand what it does | 14:31 |
| wsch | bala: so now apt-get install grub would install grub to my MBR right? | 14:31 |
| bazhang | Nalleman, dual boot? | 14:31 |
| ubuntard | udev is total fail | 14:31 |
| Nauser | Ok, so the general consensus is NOT to install Karmic under any circumstances? | 14:31 |
| sysrpl | why would setup use 2048x1526 as the default resolution? that is very stupid. most lcds can't support that and just go black during setup after 15 minutes, once ubuntu reaches the setup configuration screen. an NO i don't have integrated video on my mobo, only an nvidia graphics card | 14:32 |
| bazhang | Nauser, no | 14:32 |
| Nalleman | bazhang, yes, i have xp as well | 14:32 |
| fliebel | Would "logical" and "mount point: /" be good for a dualboot system? overwriting 9.10 over 9.04, dual booting with vista | 14:32 |
| Dr_Willis | wsch: that would install grub package.. update-grub command would then install the grub bootloader to the drive's mbr | 14:32 |
| wsch | Nauser: just take backups | 14:32 |
| dAlfa89_ | Hey, say I had two HDD's, and Ubuntu was on one, how would I enter the other in fstab? | 14:32 |
| bazhang | Nalleman, you will be okay as xp is installed first | 14:32 |
| wsch | Dr_Willis: ok, and can i choose to have it NOT on my MBR? | 14:32 |
| Dr_Willis | fliebel: / can be a logical or primary partition. | 14:32 |
| Nauser | wsch I'll just wait until they get rid of the major bugs. I've been stung a couple of times like this ... | 14:32 |
| Dr_Willis | wsch: update-grub has options to tell it where to install to. | 14:32 |
| usser | dAlfa89_, that depends on what /dev node that other hdd is and what filesystem is on it | 14:32 |
| Dr_Willis | wsch: i always put it on the MBR. | 14:33 |
| fliebel | Dr_Willis, its a HP and already has 3 partitions (backup stuff), is a 4th primary possible? | 14:33 |
| wsch | Dr_Willis: aaaah thanx man | 14:33 |
| bazhang | the grub2 is pretty informative if people actually read it | 14:33 |
| bazhang | the wiki that is | 14:33 |
| wsch | Dr_Willis: i have BCD on the MBR and that can boot grub, i need BCD there because of something else that grub cant boot | 14:33 |
| Dr_Willis | fliebel: 4 primaries max. one of which Can be a extended.. extended partitions hold logicals.. | 14:33 |
| sysrpl | Dr_Willis: why would setup use 2048x1526 as the default resolution? that is very stupid. most lcds can't support that and just go black during setup after 15 minutes, once ubuntu reaches the setup configuration screen. an NO i don't have integrated video on my mobo, only an nvidia graphics card | 14:33 |
| SingAlong | is there anyway to modify the settings of the notifications? | 14:33 |
| fliebel | Dr_Willis, so i could make a primary with 9.10 and an extended swap | 14:33 |
| Dr_Willis | wsch: good luck then. Ive never needed bcd.. :) what can grub not boot? | 14:33 |
| usser | sysrpl, the resolution is autodetected, its not default | 14:33 |

| daho | where can I get avant themes?? | 14:42 |
| KiiK | yes. I run it in my testing directory | 14:42 |
| usser | KiiK, ie running find test/ -type d rm -r {} \; removes test directory | 14:42 |
| johni | epinky, correct 755 | 14:42 |
| SingAlong | bazhang: I'm refering to the notifications that appear on the right of the screen. | 14:42 |
| raven_ | hi - i cannot use machine-names (dns) - something wrong with my ubuntu settings or with the dns? tnx | 14:42 |
| epinky | johni. you've got to make sure WPA2 only is set on your AP | 14:42 |
| bazhang | daho, gnome-look.org ? | 14:42 |
| SingAlong | bazhang: I want to change its settings or disable it atleast | 14:42 |
| usser | KiiK, ie running find ./ -type d rm -r {} \; from inside test directory doesnt | 14:42 |
| johni | epinky, I do not think I have control over that | 14:43 |
| bazhang | SingAlong, ah like transmission, or music player changing track and such? | 14:43 |
| SingAlong | bazhang: the notifications stick for too long on my screen. something like 5 seconds. and mine is a netbook screen and its really annoying | 14:43 |
| usser | KiiK, you can see what gets selected for removal by running find ./ -type d | 14:43 |
| SingAlong | bazhang: no. lol. the notifications.. "switched to battery power", "connection lost", etc that appear on top | 14:43 |
| japanferd | hey all, got a little problem with my soundcard, getting alot of static and jumpyness, whilst it still plays the song, it's still unlistenable. Running an XFi, only issued since the update to 9.10 | 14:43 |
| epinky | if you can't then use WPA, maybe that's causing the problem | 14:43 |

| Mave82 | any hint to choose the right e-mail proggy to handle >100k e-mails (I don't want to delete them, except spam)? | 14:44 |

| Dr_Willis | splashote: clarify what you mean. | 14:45 |
| Mave82 | on windows I used "the bat!" | 14:45 |
| knumar | every time my computer starts I have to manually change the screen resolution from 87hz(interlace) to the correct 75hz. I do this in the nvidia x server settings program in the system menu in ubuntu, and I have to do this after every single restart of the computer. How can i change the HZ permanently? | 14:45 |
| === bruno is now known as Guest74207 | ||
| johni | epinky, but it worked with 9.04 ... that is why I do not understand what is going on ... the only difference that I can think of is a different compilation of the drivers | 14:45 |
| petsounds | Mave82 : thunderbird? | 14:45 |
| Athanasios | Im running Ubuntu in Virtualbox, i have an ati hd 4570M and i am trying to get the driver to install, i dled it and got it to run, but now when i try to continue the setup it aborts "ERROR: vcdk is missing. Installation aborted." | 14:45 |
| Dr_Willis | knumar: run the nvidia-settings program as root.. and save the changes to the xorg.conf. i dont think that menu item launches it with the root permissions | 14:45 |
| usser | knumar, run nvidia configuration utility with sudo and if i remember correctly it had save changes to xorg.conf button | 14:45 |
| Dr_Willis | knumar: gksudo nvidia-settings | 14:45 |
| epinky | drivers, that's right but change to WPA and see if it works | 14:45 |
| Mave82 | petsounds: don't know, is it good? can it handle large pop3 accounts? | 14:46 |
| johni | epinky, in the wireless settings I have two options when I try WPA2 - the encryption algorithm TKIP or TKIP+AES | 14:46 |
| LSD|Ninja | How is Mobile Broadband supposed to work? I see the tab in network manager, I have my connection set up (I think), but I don't see where to enable the connection | 14:46 |
| arand | Athanasios: the virtualbox guest tools? | 14:46 |
| artcore | for what installing ATI drivers in VM ? | 14:46 |
| epinky | TKIP+AES | 14:46 |
| splashote | how to UNLOCK PACKAGES within the terminal? | 14:47 |
| petsounds | Mave82 : it is great, you'll love it :) | 14:47 |
| epinky | johni: TKIP+AES, TKIP and CCMP, right? | 14:47 |
| usser | Athanasios, virtualbox doesnt have direct access to graphics card, instead guest OS should use virtualbox's own drivers, install guest additions | 14:47 |
| bourke | hi can anyone tell me the file that contains modules to load on boot? | 14:47 |
| johni | epinky, not sure what you mean | 14:47 |
| Athanasios | ok thx | 14:47 |
| Dr_Willis | splashote: unlock packages makes no sence. You can Install packages (.debs) with dpkg -i whatever.deb | 14:47 |
| bazhang | splashote, which packages | 14:47 |
| epinky | johni: just use TKIP+AES | 14:48 |
| bazhang | splashote, do you mean tar.gz .zip .rar and the like? | 14:48 |
| johni | epinky, that is what I use (correct) | 14:48 |
| Mave82 | petsounds: k I will try out, thanks ;) | 14:48 |
| _Narc_ | Hi everyone. Just a simple question. Last time I installed Jaunty, I put my Home on a separate partition and I wondered if there's anything i should mind during the install, except for not overriding my hom partition of course. What about using the same username ? Would the installer create a new folder or use the old one without touching it ? Thanks | 14:48 |
| johni | epinky, as far as I know TKIP+AES = CCMP TKIP | 14:48 |
| computa_mike1 | Can i just ask - is there a recommended IRC client for Ubuntu - I'm on Jackelope, and what I find is that if someone replies to my question it scrolls off the edge before I have had a chance to reply.. Anyone recommend a good client or plugin or something? | 14:49 |
| epinky | johni: did you switch to WPA? not WPA2 | 14:49 |
| johni | let me try | 14:49 |
| Guest97736 | hello | 14:49 |
| === john is now known as Guest46458 | ||
| bazhang | computa_mike1, what are you using now | 14:49 |
| Guest46458 | can anyone recommend a decent firewall that dont need anykind of programming cus new to this os. | 14:49 |
| petsounds | Mave82 : np | 14:49 |
| Dr_Willis | computa_mike1: i reccomend using xchat | 14:49 |
| johni | epinky, on WPA should I use TKIP or AES ? | 14:49 |
| dios_mio | do guys notice that the notify box appears not exactly in the corner? | 14:49 |
| computa_mike1 | bazhang: I've got pidgin | 14:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest46458: do you really need a firewall? | 14:49 |
| splashote | bazhang: no, i was trying to downgrade x-server to use ati-drivers within jaunty. therefore i "locked" the old intrepid packages (xserver, ati etc.) within synaptic. now i get a "screen init failed" and want to try to update the locked packages to get my ubuntu back | 14:49 |
| Dr_Willis | !firewall | Guest46458 | 14:49 |
| ubottu | Guest46458: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 14:49 |
| epinky | johni: just TKIP | 14:49 |
| knumar | dr_willis, shall i merge with existing file when saving to xorg conf? | 14:50 |
| Dr_Willis | dios_mio: yes. ive seen that. | 14:50 |
| pechenie | anyone uses DRI2 on ATI with Koala? | 14:50 |
| Arsin | Hey, my mouse doesn't want to work after the login any udea why? | 14:50 |
| Dr_Willis | knumar: thas what i do. | 14:50 |
| bazhang | computa_mike1, irssi weechat xchat konversation quassel there are a ton | 14:50 |
| usser | _Narc_, when installing you have to partition manually and set your home partition mount point to /home, if the folder that corresponds to your username already exists on /home installer wont touch it. the only problem you might have is broken permissions, due to different uid of your old user and new one, but that easily fixable once everything is installed | 14:50 |
| SingAlong | holy shit! NotifyOSD sounds like a bloody bug to me. | 14:50 |
| Dr_Willis | knumar: i also keep backups of my old xorg.confs when i make changes.. just in case | 14:50 |
| raven_ | cannot access a machine using the DNS-Name - what can i do? | 14:50 |
| Daedalus-Sax | how do i stop it from printing "powernow-k8: failing targ, change pending bit set" on the screen | 14:50 |
| japanferd | anyone know how to change my sound output from 96khz to 48khz? (using opt. obviously) | 14:50 |
| Dr_Willis | raven_: if its a static ip. you could put its name/ip in /etc/hosts | 14:50 |
| usser | raven_, do you have a dns server on your network? | 14:50 |
| Guest46458 | im new to all this doc and programming im not good with! im currently running firestarter but im getting loads of serious incoming attempts | 14:50 |
| computa_mike1 | bazhang: ok - i'll try those... | 14:51 |
| raven_ | usser yes | 14:51 |
| _Narc_ | usser: Okay, that's what I thought, but wanted confirmation, thanks :) | 14:51 |
| raven_ | Dr_Willis, no it's not static | 14:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest46458: dont run services you dont need.. I let my router block most everything. | 14:51 |
| ultimatepower | jo | 14:51 |
| brunoscunha | hi | 14:51 |
| usser | raven_, is it home network with router/dns or serious network with its own dedicated dns? | 14:51 |
| KiiK | run ./ -type d, it include ./ and /test , so how can i exclude ./ | 14:51 |
| Guest46458 | im not on a router. im hooked up directly to cable modem | 14:51 |
| dios_mio | Dr_Willis, why is it not exactly in the corner? thats annoying | 14:51 |
| KiiK | run find ./ -type d, it include ./ and /test , so how can i exclude ./ | 14:52 |
| _Narc_ | usser: Once Karmic installed, if any permissions problem appears, running chmod -R would be enough ? | 14:52 |
| kankan_ | desktop effects could not be enabled | 14:52 |
| brunoscunha | i've downloaded karmic and burned it to a dvd, and no matter what I do, I can't make it boot on my laptop | 14:52 |
| Dr_Willis | dios_mio: no idea. i rarelys see it.. and on my 2 monitor setup.. its basically in the middle of the monitosrs.. so i dont worry about it. | 14:52 |
| ultimatepower | karmic is sooo buggy | 14:52 |
| brunoscunha | is the iso available bootable or not= | 14:52 |
| brunoscunha | ? | 14:52 |
| Bodsda | KiiK: ./ is just the current working directory | 14:52 |
| raven_ | usser home | 14:52 |
| Dr_Willis | brunoscunha: its bootable. | 14:53 |
| jason__ | how about karmic | 14:53 |
| Dr_Willis | brunoscunha: if you burn it correctly :) | 14:53 |
| Dracofodder | Hello everyone. I just finalized my upgrade from Jaunty to Karmic.. So far I like what I see int he new release... but, I had the compiz settings on before the upgrade (low level, just allowing things like scroll wheel switch between workspaces) and now, it appears to be disabled and I cannot find where to set this up again... I have nvidia video FX 5950, and in that dilaog I thought there was a setting for the 3D support. I don't see that anymore.) | 14:53 |
| artcore | brunoscunha, try to burn dvd with lower speed | 14:53 |
| brunoscunha | I used brasero at 3.6x | 14:53 |
| xrfang | hello, why the Services Manager disappeared in 9.10? Help please. | 14:53 |
| brunoscunha | maybe slower | 14:53 |
| johni | epinky, still no luck :((( | 14:53 |
| Dr_Willis | brunoscunha: whats on the cd? one BIG iso file? or lots of files? | 14:53 |
| Guest46458 | doc im running directly from cable modem with firestarter. i dont want to go back to that other rubbish os cus of a problem like this. | 14:54 |
| epinky | johni: proto=WPA ? | 14:54 |
| KiiK | I am in CWD, run find ./ -type d -exec rm -r {} \; and it remove my /test dir and zip file in CWD, why ? | 14:54 |
| usser | _Narc_, chown -R | 14:54 |
| brunoscunha | I glots of files | 14:54 |
| kane77 | Dracofodder, do you have the compizconfig-settings-manager package installed? that's where you set details of compiz.. | 14:54 |
| Bodsda | Dracofodder: turn it on through the 'Appearence' dialog. Configure compiz through 'ccsm' compizconfig-settings-manager | 14:54 |
| brunoscunha | *lots | 14:54 |
| raven_ | usser, Dr_Willis what can i do to identify where the problem is? | 14:54 |
| _Narc_ | usser: Oh, right, thanks | 14:54 |
| Guest97736 | tk'ptun | 14:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest46458: you are proberly worring about nothing.. install some firewall front end.. and set up some basic rules.. even without a firewall its safer then windows | 14:54 |
| nonix4 | Hrm, altcd install stuck at 26% of creating users... is that a known issue or is it just slow? | 14:54 |
| usser | raven_, most routers have crippled dns, you can try using winbind to resolve hostnames, if you have any windows machines on the network | 14:54 |
| johni | epinky, switched my router to WPA, updated proto to WPA, pair and group to TKIP | 14:54 |
| artcore | brunoscunha, did you try live cd? | 14:54 |
| raven_ | usser no i haven't | 14:54 |

| hghgd | hey I'm having some sound issues | 14:55 |
| Bodsda | KiiK: Im no expert but it looks like that command will execute the rm -r command on the results of the find command | 14:55 |
| hghgd | not sure, I just don't get sound from applications, system sounds work | 14:55 |
| Dracofodder | kane77: would the upgrade have removed that package? I'm checking now.. Bodsda: am looking there too.. | 14:55 |
| brunoscunha | it just does not boot | 14:55 |
| epinky | johni: scan_ssid=1 ? | 14:55 |

| binrapt | I installed Ubuntu 64-bit 9.10 in Virtual Box on a Windows 7 host system. I forgot to increase the number of CPUs to 8 right when I was installing it - it was still set to 1. Now that I increased it to 8 and rebooted the VM g++ no longer works: "g++: Internal error: Bus Error." Any ideas? | 14:55 |
| johni | epinky, yeap | 14:55 |
| jason__ | I can't install vim-full | 14:55 |
| Helsinkiii | i hate how my MP3s open with MovePlayer | 14:55 |
| Helsinkiii | MoviePlaer* | 14:55 |
| brunoscunha | but after booting ubuntu, the dvd contents shows up when i insert the dvd | 14:55 |
| kane77 | Dracofodder, I believe upgrade should keep packages | 14:55 |
| japanferd | has anyone here actually got an Xfi and have it working in 9.10? | 14:55 |
| epinky | johni: same error? | 14:56 |
| johni | epinky, correct | 14:56 |
| Bodsda | jason__: try vim-gnome | 14:56 |
| johni | epinky, exact same error about the pre-shared key | 14:56 |
| Raiders32 | artcore: sudo apt-get upgrade evolution? | 14:56 |
| wsch | Dr_Willis: i reported you to the ops, i got to leave now though, to reinstall my intire system | 14:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest46458: you could always set up some broad blocks - but if people are scaning your machine looking for expoits they will still be doing so. | 14:56 |
| artcore | binrapt, your ubuntu will use smp mode | 14:56 |
| Dr_Willis | wsch: perhaps you should read the grub docs..? | 14:56 |
| wsch | Dr_Willis: if it makes you feel any worse: i got backups of everything | 14:56 |
| jason__ | Bodsda, is it the same thing? | 14:56 |
| bazhang | wsch, ?? | 14:56 |
| wsch | Dr_Willis: perhaps YOU should read the grub docs before "helping" people | 14:56 |
| Sashi1 | Hello does anybody know if it is possible to use "ring switcher" or something that looks like it without using compiz? | 14:56 |
| Dr_Willis | wsch: whatever.. | 14:57 |
| wsch | yeah sure | 14:57 |
| petsounds | helsinkii : right-click, properties, open with. | 14:57 |
| Guest46458 | thanks doc. by the way, does anyone know of a programme i can use to encrypt a folder? i did try this keyring thing but cant get it working for some reason. | 14:57 |
| Dr_Willis | wsch: yes sure.. | 14:57 |
| epinky | johni: you'll have to recompile wpa_supplicant from sourcecode | 14:57 |
| artcore | Raiders32, sure | 14:57 |
| Bodsda | jason__: when I try to install 'vim-full' it installs 'vim-full' and 'vim-gnome' | 14:57 |
| binrapt | artcore anything I can do to fix it? :( | 14:57 |
| knumar | Dr_willis, thanks!! it worked | 14:57 |
| wsch | Dr_Willis: im not the one to decide, just reported it since your reaction | 14:57 |
| sgm | so i am trying to get my atheros wifi drivers to work. No luck | 14:57 |
| epinky | johni: and see if it works | 14:57 |
| binrapt | I guess I could just reinstall it from scratch but that sounds silly | 14:57 |
| sgm | anyone with experiance with these? | 14:57 |
| Helsinkiii | *how can i set program defaults for audio and video* | 14:57 |
| artcore | binrapt, you must reinstall it | 14:57 |
| Dr_Willis | gee now i feel bad.. | 14:57 |
| binrapt | Are you serious? Oh boy | 14:57 |
| Raiders32 | artcore: I just tried it. Zero files were upgraded | 14:57 |
| johni | epinky, you think there is a problem with correct version distributed with ubuntu ? | 14:58 |
| bazhang | Dr_Willis, nothing to feel bad about | 14:58 |
| Dr_Willis | I was going to ask him how installing the boot loader trashed his sytem.. but i guess he wouldent want to share. | 14:58 |
| johni | epinky, will try to reinstall wpa supplicant | 14:58 |
| isak-kar | \msg isak-kar dsadsa | 14:58 |
| Dr_Willis | bazhang: thats what i was thinking also. | 14:58 |
| Dracofodder | kane77: thanks... unsure why, but it appears I have quite a few of the compiz components installed except the compiz-config-manager will apply that and see how it goes. | 14:58 |
| Dr_Willis | bazhang: hm stull wondering what he was gooting that Grub would NOT boot... | 14:58 |
| bazhang | he refused to read the docs and then blamed others for it | 14:58 |
| epinky | johni: maybe, with supplicant we're not sure of anything | 14:58 |
| Dr_Willis | bazhang: so.. should i send him the bill or not? :) | 14:59 |
| jetienne | q. how much faster is 9.10 on intel gfx chip ? 915gm in my case | 14:59 |
| artcore | muah | 14:59 |
| bazhang | heh | 14:59 |
| Bodsda | Dr_Willis: its £200 isnt it? | 14:59 |
| artcore | jetienne, that what? | 14:59 |
| Dr_Willis | bazhang: aparently he knew enogh to use BCP or whatever that is.. but not enough to read the grub docs.. i guess | 14:59 |
| bazhang | jetienne, it seems to have been fixed relative to jaunty you can check on launchpad | 15:00 |
| kane77 | Dracofodder, it may be because it is in universe. I suppose upgrade removes universe packages, but I might be wrong.. | 15:00 |
| Dr_Willis | and here ive spent MANY an hr reading the actual docs at grub.org (or whatever its called) | 15:00 |
| johni | epinky, do you know a guide that can help me to install from source ? | 15:00 |
| jetienne | bazhang: ok | 15:00 |

| BCCHowdy | hmmm. Found it. So what's the difference between synaptic and software center? Asthetics? | 15:35 |
| zorael | Will I need an -rt kernel to use PulseAudio without getting bad sound? | 15:35 |
| tonyyarusso | So, I just started up Empathy, and I got a notification bubble that someone requested that I add them as a contact, but I can't figure out how to actually approve it. Ideas? | 15:35 |

| Guest64599 | I have a Belkin wireless USB adapter that I want to patch for packet injection, but I didn't know whether I have to download Ubuntu drivers for it first or if I just download the patch/drivers/whatever. More importantly, will doing any of this mess up the wireless card already in my laptop? | 15:35 |
| tonyyarusso | BCCHowdy: Basically, yes. Also, Synaptic shows all packages, including libraries and stuff, whereas software center just shows a selection of key things. | 15:35 |
| MarkusVN | i use ALT CTrl DEL to reboot | 15:35 |
| MarkusVN | but nothing happen | 15:35 |
| MarkusVN | still crash | 15:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | l0l3: well how bad did you screw it up? | 15:35 |
| randomtime | Guest64599: Ubuntu shipped with drivers for my belkin wireless USB card. I think these should be fine for injection | 15:36 |

| Guest79349 | Well anyway, if I'm downloading wireless drivers and stuff, will Ubuntu know that I'm downloading them for a specific card/adapter, or could it accidentally screw something up and give it the wrong drivers or something? sorry for nooby questions | 15:39 |

| newbie | robin, it is like that, but i still get very slow internet using firefox, just yesterday using 9.04 my internt was 10X faster, and I've just upgraded to 9.10, so I'm assuming it must be ipv6 that's causing the problem | 16:08 |
| arvinoids | ok let me try that | 16:08 |
| usser | m4rk, there was something about encryptfs-utils and encrypted home folder in jaunty | 16:08 |

Karmic only detected 1 of my 3 backup SATA drives. The user in ZDNet said it detected 2 our of his 3 SATA drives. So something is off somewhere... | 16:57 |
| boomer84 | I know it is the latest version and everything but should 9.10 really give this much of an improvement? I was running 8.04 for about a year (travel makes upgrades difficult) Karmic seems a million miles ahead in comparison | 16:58 |

| MsMaco | mincevv: the fdi file from hal should work with udev | 17:36 |
| drumbug1 | UbuntuUser: Ideally, you set that setting *before* you start a major download like that. I would not advise cancelling the update if it's already started installing packages.... if it's only started downloading....you may be able to cancel and restart | 17:36 |

| jetienne | q. how to boot ubuntu from a usb stick ? | 18:14 |
| grawity | c3l_: Which one? | 18:14 |
| Zxcvb | n8tuser: ok, because I heard that keeping /home could cause problems due to older config files with newer versions of software | 18:14 |
| R0b0t1 | grawity: Failing to install a package, but that's it. | 18:14 |
| bderrly | jetienne: search google, there are a million pages on that | 18:14 |
| c3l_ | grawity, the virtual fs, the iphone | 18:14 |
| n8tuser | jetienne-> your mobo has to support booting off of a usb | 18:14 |
| CriminalMacabre | hello | 18:14 |
| jibadeeha | just found /etc/init.d/ondemand that is setting the cpu governer to ondemand after 60 seconds so that explains it | 18:14 |
| DarK``_ | does anyone know an image viewer which can show multiple .svg and .sgvz files at once? | 18:14 |
| trism | p1und3r: actually, the new gdm has it's own appearance manaager, you can access it with gksudo -u gdm dbus-launch gnome-appearance-properties | 18:14 |
| Zxcvb | n8tuser: but wiping /home and manually reloading desired data is a royal pain | 18:14 |
| R0b0t1 | bderrly: Error processing "transmission-daemon", then it exits. | 18:14 |
| grawity | c3l_: Since it's handled by gphoto2, I doubt it'll support any kind of write operation... | 18:14 |

| stevecoh1 | Aargh!. Using Ubuntu 9.04. I had previously downloaded firefox 3.5 (Shiretoko). This morning an update for Firefox came into my box and I accepted it only to find it doesn't work. Invoking it brings up a tiny window with nothing in it. The title of the Window is Firefox 3.5. | 18:15 |
| n8tuser | Zxcvb-> correct. so keep a copy of the old /home .. your good stuff | 18:15 |
| Valentina | I have problem getting a user cron job to work. Why isn't it working creating a /etc/cron.allow file and putting my username in it, then run crontab -e and set a cron tab? I'm using Ubuntu 9.10. | 18:15 |
| erana | jetienne: try mounting the usb stick drive in the ubuntu installer | 18:15 |
| Promethes | jken146: so if i mark all of these "manually" installed packages as installed automatically then everything will be ok? | 18:15 |

| p1und3r | trism: thanks im gunna try that up now :D | 18:15 |
| merkoth | meTTy: ssh? | 18:15 |
| joaopinto | Valentina, it doesk work, and you dont need to change /etc/cron.allow, cron is allowed by default, if it doesn't worx as expect then you have an error at the scripting level | 18:15 |
| blue0488 | I want to install ubuntu 9.10 to a hard ware raid 1 | 18:15 |

| russss | hi, I'm trying to troubleshoot a pulseaudio problem (the problem being it's not working) after upgrading jaunty to karmic. Any takers? | 18:15 |
| n8tuser | Zxcvb-> it should not.. perhaps some minor conflicts, but you can easily resolve it | 18:15 |
| R0b0t1 | bderrly: Not really, that's all it says. It does list a fuckton of packages I could remove with autoremove, however. | 18:16 |
| Zxcvb | n8tuser: so not like the bad old 2.0.3x days | 18:16 |
| joaopinto | russss, how do you know it's related to pulseaudio ? what does not work ? | 18:16 |
| n8tuser | mourya_-> have an entry of eth0 on your /etc/network/interfaces file | 18:16 |
| grawity | c3l_: If you can ssh, then... mount it using sshfs, and use the magic of 'find' to see where does it hide all the porn^H^H^H^Hpictures. | 18:16 |
| meTTy | merkoth, bderrly , k thx i will have a look at that, will i have to install ssh on my netbook as well? | 18:16 |
| stevecoh1 | So what is up with this Ubuntu Firefox upgrade? How do I fix the mess? | 18:16 |
| a | can someone help me please! My HD is recognized in blkid as hfsplus, but I thought it was ntfs! how do I know for sure what fs it has? | 18:16 |
| merkoth | meTTy: shuld be installed by default | 18:16 |
| russss | joaopinto: killing pulseaudio and using aplay as root works fine. Pulseaudio just...doesn't work. | 18:16 |
| bderrly | meTTy: you likely have an ssh client installed on the netbook, but if not you'll have to install one | 18:16 |
| n8tuser | Zxcvb-> i dont know for sure, try it and help out the community if you discover anything that makes it faulty | 18:16 |
| nesw | I seem to be hitting the Installer hangs at 80% on "Configuring apt" bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/445385 - any ideas how i can proceed with install? is it safe to hit "skip" at this point? | 18:16 |

| rictec | anyone here can help me with vdpau? | 18:17 |
| bderrly | R0b0t1: you can try removing that package for now with 'apt-get remove' or 'dpkg --remove' (jot down the name so you remember later) and see if processing with 'apt-get -f install' will continue | 18:17 |
| n8tuser | dalton2345-> its common for new releases | 18:17 |
| merkoth | nesw: you can skip it, and later activate the repost by hand | 18:17 |
| bderrly | R0b0t1: then you can install that package again later | 18:17 |
| odder | does anybody know how to disable icons in the apps menu? | 18:17 |

| n8tuser | hdon look into xrandr | 18:18 |
| russss | joaopinto: yep. It's a bit annoying that the sound test button has gone from the sound preferences in this release. | 18:18 |
| dalton2345 | IdleOne: yes, true | 18:18 |
| hdon | n8tuser: ok, i'll do that | 18:18 |
| VCoolio | erana: I'm certainly not going to use vi and I know how to add repos, but it would be convenient to do it in one command but the keyserver always times out as usual | 18:18 |
| n8tuser | Suhail-> correct, please google for it | 18:18 |
| Suhail | bderrly: are you sure that's the latest stable vresion? | 18:18 |
| stevecoh1 | that's good. Now can anyone tell me how to fix the mess that Ubuntu upgrade did to my Firefox? | 18:19 |

| trism | p1und3r: not sure | 18:20 |
| russss | joaopinto: yeah ok. I'll probably keep digging till I find the problem first, but I was just hoping this was a known issue. Pulseaudio doesn't like me but I'd like to try and solve it rather than just uninstalling it. | 18:20 |

| joaopinto | russss, there have been some issues reported with sound in general for Karmic, but I am not aware of anything as your case | 18:22 |
| merkoth | shashi_irc: right click the icon, properties, maybe you can change it | 18:22 |
| n8tuser | LongBeach-> oh yeah it may be named virtualbox. so many out there, i cant remember all the names | 18:22 |
| Suhail | bderrly: I think i am a bit new to understanding how to find a package and then install it on a now slightly older version of ubuntu | 18:22 |

| R0b0t1`srvr | saying complete | 18:23 |
| Suhail | bderrly: it seems like oyu have to do something special to take packages if your version of ubuntu is a bit older? | 18:23 |

| shashi_irc | The embed picture is appearing on the top , but not in the middle | 18:23 |
| bderrly | R0b0t1`srvr: if there are no upgrades needed then dist-upgrade won't do anything | 18:23 |
| russss | joaopinto: yeah, I have a slightly exotic sound card but that hasn't really been the root cause of my previous problems. It just seems I'm really unlucky with pulseaudio and this machine has been dist-upgraded about 4 times. | 18:23 |
| merkoth | odder: maybe no one knows | 18:23 |
| n8tuser | odder perhaps no one here knows the answer yet, so be patient? | 18:23 |
| stevecoh1 | OK, renaming my ~/.mozilla/firefox-3.5 directory did not help matters. Firefox-3.5 is still broken. | 18:23 |
| russss | I *want* to like pulseaudio, but it doesn't want to like me | 18:23 |

| jibadeeha | shashi_irc, is that really important | 18:24 |

| bderrly | Suhail: building mysql from source could be painful if you've never installed from source before...though i can't say from experience as i've never tried to compile mysql, but it is a large package | 18:28 |
| n8tuser | jontes-> install it permanently as dual boot | 18:28 |

| bderrly | Suhail: you might want to backup important data and do a fresh install of karmic | 18:30 |
| stevecoh1 | How painful is the 9.04 -->9.10 update. Maybe it's time. | 18:30 |
| Suhail | bderrly: is it possible? | 18:30 |
| jontes | garytang: ahh ok | 18:30 |
| joaopinto | sahin, you should install drivers from the official repositories, not from your vendor's site | 18:30 |

| Suhail | bderrly: oh do upgrades not typically go well? | 18:30 |

| stevecoh1 | hmm. | 18:30 |
| Suhail | bderrly: haha ok | 18:30 |
| Suhail | bderrly: jeez that far back :P | 18:30 |

| abe3k | Hello Guys! | 18:31 |
| gorillamonky | can somebody help me get my speakers working? | 18:31 |
| francesca | hi all | 18:31 |
| Suhail | bderrly: that sounds horrible hah | 18:31 |
| garytang | vgambit: havenot noticed any differences. | 18:32 |
| francesca | i have a problem with wifi on karmik koala | 18:32 |
| bderrly | Suhail: they usually do a LTS server and have backports enabled so they get security updates to packages | 18:32 |
| vgambit | just fumbled around for 2 minutes until I realized that changing acceleration actually changed movement speed and changing the sensitivity messed with the acceleration | 18:32 |
| bderrly | Suhail: yeah, i'm not pleased, i can't figure out what the problem is | 18:32 |
| lmartin92_ | n8tuser: I had further instructions but then a transformer blew where I live and power was out for a sec | 18:32 |
| lucka01 | HEllo there. | 18:32 |
| n8tuser | francesca-> tells us what you did to troubleshoot? | 18:32 |

| abe3k | I've upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 today and I was wondering, what is the grub version that ships with ubuntu 9.10 | 18:32 |
| francesca | this is my board: 0e:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5100 | 18:32 |
| merkoth | stevecoh1: ok, now I see. Shiretoko was FF 3.5 codename | 18:32 |
| trism | abe3k: grub2, but it won't be installed if you upgrade | 18:32 |
| francesca | n8tuser, networkmanager says the device is disabled | 18:32 |
| mikeru | every once in a while, when a sound... sounds, if there was more than about a minute without doing any sound, it does a weird buzz... | 18:32 |
| garytang | abe3k: the upgrade doesn't upgrade to grub2 | 18:32 |
| Suhail | bderrly: seems like oyu have to do total data mrigrations to get the real updated distros then | 18:33 |
| blue0488 | how can I get the flash player to work?> | 18:33 |
| n8tuser | lmartin92_-> not me you were chatting with before.. | 18:33 |
| merkoth | stevecoh1: you can try downloading FF 3.5 from mozilla.com to see if it works | 18:33 |
| Suhail | bderrly: which sounds like a nightmare | 18:33 |
| abe3k | trism : I see, should I do that manually or what ? | 18:33 |
| garytang | abe3k: you need to do it manually by isntalling the package grub2 | 18:33 |
| mikeru | 18:33 | |
| bderrly | Suhail: not necessarily | 18:33 |
| n8tuser | francesca-> look in dmesg for indications and sudo lshw -C network too | 18:33 |
| lmartin92_ | n8tuser: you refered my info to someone... is why I refered this back to you | 18:33 |
| Suhail | bderrly: anyway building from source it is | 18:33 |
| jontes | wich software do you think are best for to burn iso? | 18:33 |
| abe3k | garytang : I see that grub2 is called a dummy package, is that safe to install ? | 18:33 |
| Suhail | bderrly: i found a good article on it | 18:33 |

| vak | hi all | 18:34 |
| jontes | ok | 18:34 |
| k1ko | h1 :) | 18:34 |
| garytang | abe3k: only grub2 | 18:34 |
| mikeru | particularily, with alert sounds. like if I backspace on an empty line in Xchat, it does an alert sound and that weird buzz/noise sounds. If I continue doing so, it won't. But if I wait another minute, it does so again. | 18:35 |
| n8tuser | lmartin92_-> and you were successful right? so i referred the other individual to see your post that seemed to work | 18:35 |

I put 9.04 on, and it worked no problem like 8.04. 8.04 is old now, maybe you should try 9.10 or at least the hardware on the Live CD. | 18:40 |

| Dr_Willis | thrope: theres a few little things you can change.. but its not as themeable as the old gdm was | 18:44 |

| sebsebseb | pblchai: Today it's the 31st of October Halloween, in some time zones it's already the 1st of November. | 18:46 |
| pblchai | thrope, just, download a ubuntu from www.ubuntu.com you can choise betwen 32 and 64 bits architecture | 18:46 |
| merkoth | Gyndawyr: the dell seems to be better | 18:46 |
| Gyndawyr | but is it £50 better? | 18:46 |

| XVampireX | No ip address specified and hostname not found | 18:46 |
| sathiya | which is i have a wrong entry /etc/fstab, so while bootin it says there is an entry which i have not mounted | 18:47 |
| k1ko | Gyndawyr: i like the samsung more :) | 18:47 |
| sathiya | and asks to press ESC to goto troubleshoot .. | 18:47 |
| merkoth | Gyndawyr: It's hard for me to say | 18:47 |
| Sordna | just a note, ubuntu netbook remix 9.10 appears to work flawlessly on my acer aspire one 10.1 inch netbook. | 18:47 |
| merkoth | k1ko: why? | 18:47 |
| thrope | pblchai: eh? i have ubuntu installed - same install since 2004 or so | 18:47 |
| k1ko | Gyndawyr: the samsung has more contarst | 18:47 |
| bazhang | fjgfjh, what is mikrotik (keep it in channel) | 18:47 |
| Gyndawyr | both have provided similar specification but neither really informed me of their manufacturing process | 18:47 |
| sathiya | but when i go there, and working it automatically boots and gives me the login screen | 18:47 |

| fjgfjh | but no no intrnet on my box | 18:48 |

| Gyndawyr | dynamic contrast ratio means pretty much nothing. static contrast ratio tells you a bit, but generally its a waste of time anyway. they are tested under "ideal conditions" | 18:49 |

| alberto | hey guys i'm unable to write on a WD external Hard drive,i can browse the files but can't write/delete them, anyone can help? thanks | 18:53 |
| IdleOne | Dasda: I believe if you install ubuntu-restricted-extras it adds support for certain file types | 18:53 |
| guntbert | john-saint: then open system/administration, the first item should be add/remove | 18:53 |
| lilyshu | Sordna : ok thanks | 18:53 |

| hdon | is there a log anywhere of the output of the command? | 18:54 |
| fjgfjh | hellooooooooooooooooooooooooo | 18:54 |

| fjgfjh | some body help mee | 18:54 |
| Dasda | IdleOne: sorry what extras? | 18:54 |
| thrope | trism: crap - none of those work for me becuase they're on a per user basis and I want it enabled from gdm | 18:54 |
| john-saint | guntbert: first thing on that lis is janator. nothing in there for add/remove | 18:54 |
| bazhang | fjgfjh, do you have the computer there | 18:54 |
| trism | thrope: although, alt+sysrq+k is easy enough (the new ctrl+alt+backspace) | 18:54 |
| IdleOne | Dasda: the package is called ubuntu-restricted-extras | 18:54 |
| fjgfjh | nop | 18:54 |
| quidnunc | Is there a way to set a download rate limit in aptitude without resorting to trickle? | 18:54 |

| fjgfjh | using his computer | 18:55 |
| IdleOne | Dasda: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras or you can look for it in Synaptic package manager | 18:55 |
| fjgfjh | (A) | 18:55 |
| bazhang | fjgfjh, how are you going to get internet on it without it there to troubleshoot and try what we suggest | 18:55 |
| guntbert | john-saint: strange but doesn't really matter, further down should be an item "synaptic ..." | 18:55 |
| thrope | trism: ah yeah alt+sysreq+k works fine - but a little harder to do since i dont have the muscle memory yet! | 18:55 |
| fjgfjh | brother | 18:55 |
| xiambax | Sista! | 18:55 |
| fjgfjh | :S | 18:55 |

| fjgfjh | some body help me | 18:56 |
| guntbert | john-saint: start that please, you have to type *your* passsword | 18:56 |
| freak_ | it means to clear fron cache | 18:56 |
| IdleOne | ZoeyMarie: first one removes the app, second removes app and configs | 18:56 |
| Dr_Willis | ZoeyMarie: the latter purges all config files for the program from the system, | 18:56 |
| k1ko | ZoeyMarie: also removes configuration files | 18:56 |
| durt | ZoeyMarie, complete removal purges config files. | 18:56 |
| bazhang | fjgfjh, I'm trying. You need to answer my question | 18:56 |
| penguin42 | leaf-sheep: Did you ever hand configure it in /etc/network/interfaces? | 18:56 |
| thrope | trism: its cos I usually have the box headless - so when it restarts x is at the wrong resolution so i pop the monitor in and reset so that vnc etc is at the right resolution | 18:56 |
| Dr_Willis | ZoeyMarie: but NOT the users owned configs in their home dirs.., | 18:56 |

| xiambax | tanath, Its all dependant on your install and hardware. Its not so much the OS as something thats specific to you | 18:57 |
| IdleOne | crohakon: try launching from terminal and see if it spits out any errors | 18:57 |

| fjgfjh | i know u trying to help me | 18:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Spirits-Sight: ther are windows tools you can run in windows to shrink windows partitions. ask in #windows about them | 18:58 |
| trism | Spirits-Sight: you may need to make sure you defrag the partition before you try to resize it, so all the files are on one side mostly | 18:58 |

| tanath | xiambax, that's a non-sequitur | 18:58 |
| crohakon | IdleOne; how do I launch it from terminal? | 18:58 |
| guntbert | john-saint: in front of your app there is a green icon, right click on it and choose "mark for removal" | 18:58 |
| xiambax | What issues are you having? What are you doing during system freezes? | 18:58 |
| IdleOne | crohakon: firefox | 18:58 |
| tanath | spp, i've seen someone else mention the same issue in here the other day | 18:58 |
| jmpurser | chemjeff, just ask. | 18:58 |
| somekool | I was wondering if the whole desktop is compiled with -O2 flag ? did -OS been considered ??? | 18:59 |
| crohakon | IdleOne; makes sense | 18:59 |
| Dr_Willis | phzin: upgrade if you want or need the new features.. or not if you dont want to risk any potential issues from upgradeing | 18:59 |
| john-saint | guntbert: ok done that | 18:59 |
| leaf-sheep | alberto: Do you know which path is the one with your external drive? | 18:59 |
| IdleOne | crohakon: usually the name of the app will launch it | 18:59 |
| tanath | xiambax, sometimes nothing. i've had it happen simply while booting up | 18:59 |
| saji | phzin, You shoudn | 18:59 |

| IdleOne | leaf-sheep: :P +1 | 19:13 |
| penguin42 | PsychoMario: If you let someone download a setuid program then anyone could get root | 19:13 |
| bostongeek24 | its not a bug with a package | 19:13 |
| leaf-sheep | IdleOne: Right before you this time! :) | 19:13 |
| Sylphid|netbook | jepson, is windows running as a a guest in a virtual install? | 19:13 |
| bostongeek24 | its a bug with the system in general | 19:13 |
| epinky | nameeqa: "sudo iptables -F" | 19:13 |
| PsychoMario | penguin42: yes i realise that, im trying to secure against it | 19:13 |
| === esteeven__ is now known as esteeven | ||
| jepson | Julianoliver, IdleOne, that's what I thought aswell. I even installed Grub on a secondary hdd, but the sound is missing even when I boot with windows own bootloader. | 19:13 |
| julianoliver | bostongeek24: that's fine. register it there. | 19:14 |
| PsychoMario | if i tar the setuid program, it still stops bing setuid after i download it | 19:14 |
| jepson | Sylphid|netbook, No, it's a plain install. I use two separate hdds for windows and ubuntu aswell. And separate bootloaders | 19:14 |
| guntbert | splashote: then we'll find a clue: in terminal type sudo fdisk -l and look for a line with sdc1 | 19:14 |
| om26er | keyserver.ubuntu.com is not responding so is there any other way to register a ppa key? | 19:14 |
| alberto | leaf-sheep: no, it didn't work... i'm frustrated | 19:15 |
| arand | om26er: use an alternative keyserver. | 19:15 |
| penguin42 | PsychoMario: When a non-priveliged user untars it it'll lose the uid of the thing you are trying to setuid to (It might keep the setuid flag itself - can't remember) | 19:15 |
| om26er | arand: is there any? | 19:15 |
| om26er | arand: and how to user | 19:15 |
| Sylphid|netbook | jepson, i dont see any way that the ubuntu install could affect the windows install then | 19:15 |
| splashote | guntbert: it says hpfs/ntfs | 19:15 |
| nameeqa | epinky: i did it what should i do next? | 19:15 |
| IdleOne | jepson: someone mentioned checking the bios settings. | 19:16 |
| PsychoMario | penguin42: so theres no way you can transfer setuid programs? i already know that you cant over a memory stick, because the 'defaults' for automounting is nosetuid | 19:16 |
| dr3mro | I followed this guide to fix my fn f5 f6 keys in jaunty and worked but its not applicable to karmic any ideas plz help me i need help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=97472 | 19:16 |
| jepson | Sylphid|netbook, neither do I -- however, it's done it twice now. Quite interesting | 19:16 |
| epinky | nameeqa: gedit /etc/network/interfaces and change it to initial values | 19:16 |
| lucka01 | OMG... on my acer aspire 5410 even CDROM doesn't work. I jsut put in a DVD with video content and nothing happens. Where can I access cdrom? | 19:16 |
| nameeqa | epinky: i do not see Auto eth0 in the Network connections | 19:16 |
| leaf-sheep | alberto: If you want to, you can turn on all permissions. | 19:16 |
| penguin42 | PsychoMario: Only if the person on the destination side is privileged | 19:16 |
| TheCheeze | so i am a douche and forgot the person's name that was just helping me... | 19:16 |
| lucka01 | and a few mins ago I watched that same dvd on TV | 19:16 |
| guntbert | splashote: ah, its probably then ntfs from windows - so replace -t ext3 with -t ntfs | 19:16 |
| jepson | IdleOne, Yes, I will try that. However it's not an on-board card, so I don't see what settings would affect it. | 19:16 |
| splashote | guntbert i already tried to mount it with -t ntfs but it says: "... doesn't dseem to have a valid NTFS | 19:16 |
| PsychoMario | penguin42: well thats a relief | 19:16 |
| gregorovius | Hi. I have a thumb drive with ubuntu 9.04 which I use for tech support work. Anybody knows if/how can I upgrade it to 9.10? Or do I have to start from scratch? | 19:16 |
| epinky | nameeqa: then add what's missing | 19:16 |
| leaf-sheep | alberto: sudo chmod -R 777 /media/My<tab> | 19:16 |
| ctrlesc | It took me for a long time to installing language package | 19:17 |
| Dr_Willis | gregorovius: how did you make the thumbdrive? | 19:17 |
| guntbert | om26er: http://pgp.mit.edu/ is one | 19:17 |
| Valentina | What does the x permission mean to a text file? | 19:17 |
| gregorovius | Dr_Willis, the usb startup disk creator | 19:17 |
| meTTy | do i have to close a ssh connection in my shell, after doing some remote stuff? | 19:17 |
| penguin42 | Valentina: Executable - for a shell script | 19:17 |
| arand | om26er: use the password & encryption keys in acessories and in preferences set anothe keyserver, then do a search and add the key in question. | 19:17 |
| Sylphid|netbook | jepson, you say that it happened twice... how did you fix it last time | 19:17 |
| Valentina | I have a text file that has got rw but not the rwx as permissions. What does x mean to a text file? | 19:17 |
| mesula | Ubuntu made me physically sick last night. | 19:17 |
| typhoon22 | gregorovuis: I managed to "upgrade" my usb stick to 9.04 just by copying the files on the iso onto the stick | 19:18 |
| Dr_Willis | gregorovius: Hmm.. No sure how to properly Upgrade that with a persistant home/save file. (if you are using one) You could just make a new one using the same tool then copy the casperrw file (i think thats the name) over to the new drive | 19:18 |
| Valentina | penguin42: Ok, but what does it mean for a text file, not a script? | 19:18 |
| om26er | arand: thnx | 19:18 |
| Brova | gergorovius: System > Administration > Update Manager. | 19:18 |
| penguin42 | Valentina: Nothing, if you tried to run it it would try and execute the text file as a script | 19:18 |
| Valentina | penguin42: Does it do any difference if a text file has got rwx or only rw? | 19:18 |
| typhoon22 | not sure if itll work up to 9.10 though | 19:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Brova: in mot sure that will work for one made with usb-disk-creator | 19:18 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 19:18 |
| penguin42 | Valentina: Nope, probably best not to have the x | 19:18 |
| Valentina | penguin42: Ok, thank you. | 19:18 |
| guntbert | splashote: strange - I'm out of ideas for now - please ask the channel again, with as much details as possible | 19:18 |
| Brova | wilis: its how i did it | 19:18 |
| bostongeek24 | im not sure but i don't think its the battery because the battery says its charged i unplugged it then the computer shuts off i don't think thats the battery because this is a brand new computer also im having an issue with the graphics system when the computer first comes on the screen blicks and lowers and raises the brightness also when i try to raise or lower the brightness it does the same thing im also having an issue with | 19:19 |
| bostongeek24 | my network card sometimes it drops the connection but it still shows that its connected | 19:19 |
| gregorovius | i thought about that, Brova, does it work to upgrade inside the live os? | 19:19 |
| mesula | Ubuntu made me physically sick last night. | 19:19 |
| IdleOne | Valentina: a script is basically a text file. the x just makes it executable. if there is no command to execute nothing will happen | 19:19 |
| piratepenguin | ubuntu 9.10 desktop or netbook remix for an eee pc used by a power user? is it easy to remove the things I dont like on remix? | 19:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Brova: that would seem very very odd... since most of the stuff is in a read only file. then the change/caser file is used.. | 19:19 |
| bazhang | mesula, please take chat elsewhere | 19:19 |
| typhoon22 | piratepenguin: programs add remove same as the full release | 19:19 |
| mblack154 | Anyone have any problems disabling GDM | 19:19 |
| mesula | bazhang: Command declined. | 19:19 |
| IdleOne | !ot | mesula | 19:20 |
| ubottu | mesula: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 19:20 |
| Brova | gregorvious: install ubuntu from the boot disk and upgrade it from there | 19:20 |
| mesula | It's not offtopic. | 19:20 |
| piratepenguin | typhoon22: ill give remix a go then, cheers | 19:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Brova: Idont have one of those to test any more.. i made a grub2 flash drive that boots the iso file now. :) so i dont have persistant saves on it yet. | 19:20 |
| splashote | i try to mount an ext. HD but it isn't recognised as a NTFS, any suggestions? | 19:20 |
| leaf-sheep | alberto: How is it going on your side? | 19:20 |
| r00to3 | piratepenguin, i installed UNR but switched to desktop bcuz of the desktop view | 19:20 |
| nameeqa | epinky: i added the wired connection by adding the mac address of eth0 i found with ifconfig , but still nothing is showing up, when i plug in the ethernet cable it tried to determine the IP but after some time it says not connected | 19:21 |
| obiwan_ | hi! please one question, while downloading karmic with wget , i got asleep. Now i see a 6xxM file. I tried to resume the wget just to know if it's finished or not, but i get SIZE 724... REST 775... i searched a little about what's rest, and it's the size of the file i've yet downloaded, but how can rest then be higher than the total file (SIZE?) | 19:21 |
| r00to3 | piratepenguin, desktop 9.10 on my netbook runs perfect. | 19:21 |
| PsychoMario | Dr_Willis: How did you manage to make a usb flash drive that boots isos?? i'd like to use that! | 19:21 |
| Brova | Willis: want to tell me how you did that? lol | 19:21 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: thats a new feature of Grub2.. let me pastebin my grub.cfg :) | 19:21 |
| epinky | nameeqa: use the network manager | 19:21 |
| typhoon22 | note of advice guys (while I'm awake) If you put the full install, then the UNR on a netbook and use desktop-switcher between the 2 take your SD cards out first | 19:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Brova: :) i will just paste my delicious.com links | 19:21 |
| piratepenguin | r00to3: did you need to install a different kernel to contol everything? (fans is a big one, they were constantly loud on 8.10) | 19:21 |
| alberto | leaf-sheep: ok, you're gonna kill it was My Passport-1... i feel so dumb, sorry | 19:21 |
| Brova | willis: ok thanks | 19:22 |
| nameeqa | epinky: how to do that ? | 19:22 |
| * Dr_Willis read/researched grub2 during beta. :) | 19:22 | |
| mblack154 | IS update-rc.d -f remove gdm working for anyone. It states that it works, but boots back into GDM | 19:22 |
| leaf-sheep | alberto: Heh. That's okay. You got it working now, right? :0 | 19:22 |
| piratepenguin | can i switch from 9.10 remix to desktop without reinstalling? | 19:22 |
| bostongeek24 | so how do i report that to ubuntu? | 19:22 |
| Dr_Willis | http://delicious.com/dr_willis/grub2 | 19:22 |
| i00nsu | ppl, very cool visual upgrade in koala.. | 19:22 |
| alberto | leaf-sheep: it changing the owner | 19:22 |
| r00to3 | piratepenguin, No. | 19:22 |
| epinky | did you restart networking ? | 19:22 |
| typhoon22 | piratepenguin: i have both installed on my AA1 - i haven't dared to remove either :| | 19:22 |
| bostongeek24 | ?? | 19:23 |
| epinky | nameeqa: did you restart networking ? | 19:23 |
| === sammy is now known as Guest72397 | ||
| leaf-sheep | alberto: In that case, you should do "sudo chown -R alberto:alberto /media/Correct-Path" | 19:23 |
| nameeqa | no | 19:23 |
| i00nsu | I have a litle question: it is possible to get a specific application with a specific language pack ? | 19:23 |
| nameeqa | how do i ? | 19:23 |
| bostongeek24 | hello?? | 19:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Brova: it was rather easy to get going.. installed grub2 to the pendrive.. hand made a grub.cfg for it. | 19:23 |
| piratepenguin | typhoon22, r00to3: ok guys thanks for the info :) | 19:23 |
| PsychoMario | Dr_Willis: Thanks so much, i've been trying to do that for ages :) | 19:23 |
| i00nsu | I mean .. OpenOffice with all menus in a specific language | 19:24 |
| om26er | times new roman, arial and courier new are not in my font. what do i need to install to get them | 19:24 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: it wasent doable with grub1. :) and its ONLY doable with disrtos/iso images designed to handle the special options | 19:24 |
| i00nsu | om26er, msfonts | 19:24 |
| Brova | hey. while im here i may aswell ask. does anyone know how i can remap my 5 button mouse to work like it does in windows/mac osx ? | 19:24 |
| om26er | i00nsu: no | 19:24 |
| PsychoMario | Dr_Willis: Like knoppix? | 19:24 |
| m4rk | why isn't truecrypt part of the distro? | 19:24 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: i couldent get the alt-ubuntu iso to boot with it however.. just Kubuntu and ubuntu iso;s and tiny core linux so far. | 19:24 |
| guntbert | i00nsu: you install the regular openoffice and the you add a language pack | 19:24 |
| IdleOne | !mouse | Brova | 19:24 |

| alberto | leaf-sheep: yeap i did that but it didn't work... | 19:24 |
| om26er | i00nsu: how to install them. but msfonts are free? | 19:24 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: ive not botherd with knoppix in years | 19:25 |
| Hypnus9 | How do I find a channel for Ardour? | 19:25 |
| i00nsu | om26er, yes | 19:25 |

| p1und3r | has anyone else got "One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab/ cannot yet be mounted" and found a solution? | 19:25 |
| epinky | nameeqa: /etc/init.d/networking restart | 19:25 |
| joaopinto | m4rk, because it does not use a Free Software compatible license | 19:25 |
| odder | bazhang: that was the one | 19:25 |
| typhoon22 | does anyone know if anyone is working on a sis671 driver, (or at least updating the old one). the version for 9.04 doesn't work with 9.10 | 19:25 |
| Brova | thanks ubbtu | 19:25 |
| om26er | i00nsu: are they the same that come with ubuntu restricted extras | 19:25 |
| odder | bazhang: I have looked into gconf, too, no results | 19:25 |
| guntbert | Hypnus9: try /msg alis list *ardour* | 19:25 |
| jacquesdupontd | hey guys | 19:25 |
| klaido | hey guys. i have just installed 9.10 but i want to go back 9.04. how can be done that? | 19:25 |
| m4rk | ok...but neither do other things, and you can still get them in universe? | 19:25 |
| bazhang | odder, there have been some bugs filed against it as well on launchpad | 19:26 |
| guntbert | !downgrade | klaido | 19:26 |
| ubottu | klaido: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 19:26 |
| om26er | klaido: format | 19:26 |
| leaf-sheep | alberto: That's strange. You should have the permission now since you're the owner. | 19:26 |
| IdleOne | klaido: backup and fresh install | 19:26 |
| jacquesdupontd | i'm on 9.10 and i'm bored about those fuc....g ati drivers that doesn't vertical sync good | 19:26 |
| i00nsu | guntbert, and all menus will be in that specific language ? | 19:26 |
| sun` | 9.10 is actually better klaido. why go back? | 19:26 |
| m4rk | I am on 9.10 and no problems so far (touch wood! ;-)) | 19:26 |
| om26er | jacquesdupontd: was that a comment | 19:26 |
| PsychoMario | Dr_Willis: i havnt used knoppix either, but that is an example that comes to mind. so it wouldnt be useablefor anything like konboot or similar (konboot bypasses windows authentication(i dont use it for bad deeds)) | 19:26 |
| jacquesdupontd | anybody has an idea how to configure an ati xorg.conf on 7.4 ? | 19:26 |
| klaido | my pc and net is slower. | 19:26 |
| p1und3r | im liking 9.10 too, other than this error on boot "One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab/ cannot yet be mounted" | 19:26 |
| jacquesdupontd | om26er, nope a question | 19:26 |
| c0ld | Ive found some problems on 9.10 | 19:26 |
| guntbert | i00nsu: you can then switch the GUI language at will | 19:26 |
| k1ko | !hop | 19:26 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about hop | 19:26 |
| typhoon22 | klaido: I'm with you | 19:27 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: i got my grub2 configs on the hdrd drive instaleld system setup to boot the isos from the /boot/ partition also so i can recover/reinstall if needed from hd also.. let me give you that url for a example also | 19:27 |

| jacquesdupontd | om26er, im sure there's a way to stop that problem with flicking or vertical sync depends how you call it | 19:27 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: thers ya go :) | 19:27 |
| bostongeek24 | hello?????????????? | 19:27 |
| IdleOne | Dr_Willis: do you have a machine named moo also? | 19:27 |
| jacquesdupontd | om26er, would like to find someone with an ati card that would tell me how to configure the best my xorg | 19:27 |
| crohakon | bostongeek24; hi | 19:27 |
| bostongeek24 | how do i file a bug againest the system? | 19:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | bostongeek24: do you have a question, if so, state it | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis | IdleOne: Nope. :) this is a gateway machine with a cow motif :P | 19:28 |
| bostongeek24 | i did | 19:28 |
| klaido | guntbert :how can i downgrade? | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis | IdleOne: i got a fileserver named server.. and a Pink netbook named Pinky | 19:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | bostongeek24: are you sure its a bug or something you just don't know how to fix? | 19:28 |
| c0ld | Im having problems installing Metasploit... any advice maybe someone can point me in the right direction | 19:28 |
| meTTy | when i try to copy a file from my desktop to my server: "scp user1@desktop: file user2@server: direction" i got an error; connection refused (port22) - what can i do? | 19:28 |
| bostongeek24 | its a bug | 19:28 |
| Random832 | klaido, reinstall from scratch - you can save the contents of your home directory if you don't want to lose settings | 19:28 |
| alberto | leaf-sheep: now, when i check the /media/My Passport-1 properties it says that i'm the owner but in the group it says "root" | 19:28 |
| IdleOne | bostongeek24: launchpad.net | 19:28 |
| bostongeek24 | im having many different types of issues since updating to karmic | 19:28 |
| David-T | meTTy: are you actually putting a space after the : ? | 19:29 |
| PsychoMario | Dr_Willis: that looks like it will work. I'll look into that tomorrow; im not suposed to be on my computer at the moment (parents say so :)) | 19:29 |
| Brova | Willis: LOL nice naming choices there ;) | 19:29 |
| Random832 | (can the livecd install without reformatting and just erase everything except /home?) | 19:29 |
| joaopinto | bostongeek24, so you have several problems, and should file a bug for each of them, assuming you know they are bugs and not regular problems | 19:29 |
| leaf-sheep | alberto: Like I said earlier... In that case, you should do "sudo chown -R alberto:alberto /media/Correct-Path" That's what the second alberto in the command is for. :) | 19:29 |
| meTTy | David-T, no | 19:29 |
| odder | bazhang: have you found any fixes for that? | 19:29 |
| bazhang | Random832, that is one benefit of a separate home partition | 19:29 |
| David-T | meTTy: if "scp user@host:/path/file user@host2:/path/file" gives 'connection refused' you need to run sshd on host2 | 19:29 |
| leaf-sheep | alberto: The first one is for users ; the second one is for groups. | 19:29 |
| joaopinto | Random832, yes it can | 19:30 |
| bazhang | odder, as I have been on Karmic all of two days, not yet | 19:30 |
| klaido | random932: reinstall 9.10 or 9.04? because in 9.04 i upgraded and then upgraded again to 9.10 | 19:30 |
| David-T | meTTy: or you've got a firewall between the two hosts blocking connections to port 22 | 19:30 |
| === crohakon is now known as crohakon|afk | ||
| odder | bazhang: I understand :-) | 19:30 |
| leaf-sheep | alberto: I have to leave. Good luck! This is little stuffs! The people in here can help you with that. :) | 19:30 |
| Random832 | bazhang, yeah, but i'm guessing klaido doesn't have one | 19:30 |
| leaf-sheep | !away | crohakon|afk | 19:30 |
| ubottu | crohakon|afk: You should avoid noisy away messages in a busy channel like #ubuntu, or other Ubuntu channels; it causes excessive scrolling which is unfair to new users. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 19:30 |
| Random832 | klaido, if you want 9.04 install 9.04. | 19:30 |
| Random832 | what problems are you having with 9.10? | 19:31 |
| meTTy | David-T, there is no firewall, but a router, but i can connect on the server, so i don't think that is the problem? | 19:31 |

| crohakon | Dr_Willis; lol | 19:32 |
| Random832 | klaido, back up the contents of your /home/[username] directory to somewhere (it may be possible to install without erasing this, but i'm uncertain) and just reinstall from the 9.04 cd. That's how you downgrade. | 19:32 |
| bazhang | crohakon, thats not appropriate for here. Please dont. | 19:32 |

| klaido | random832. i dont have a cd. i upgraded to 9.04 from 8.10 | 19:32 |
| Dr_Willis | saketh: ive noticed some oddities in that area on my HP laptop also. | 19:32 |
| Random832 | hey does anyone know why when i hit the key for brightness change it goes two steps? acer aspire 5515 | 19:32 |
| sun` | Why wubi starts downloading data instead of using the DISC? | 19:32 |
| Random832 | klaido, well, you could get one, or you could do the 'long way' and use your 8.10 cd. | 19:32 |
| meTTy | David-T, "ssh user@host2" on host2? u mean on host 1? | 19:32 |
| Deihmos | updates are taking forever. i am getting less than 1KB | 19:33 |
| Dr_Willis | josefrichter: theres themes/extensions for firefox for that.. or opera can i think.. and chromium can also. | 19:33 |
| David-T | meTTy: no, on host2 | 19:33 |
| Random832 | what problems have you had with 9.10 anyway? | 19:33 |
| PsychoMario | are there any _very_ light linux distros that fit on a floppy, that i don't have to compile? | 19:33 |
| bazhang | Deihmos, that is normal 2 days after a release | 19:33 |
| om26er | sun' processor architect difference | 19:33 |
| saketh | what should i do? | 19:33 |
| David-T | meTTy: it removes the router from the equation | 19:33 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: a FLOPPY? Not that i know of.. TinyCoreLinux = 10mb | 19:33 |
| julianoliver | Deihmos: change to another mirror. | 19:33 |
| sun` | 9.04 never did that :o | 19:33 |
| sebsebseb | sun`: ,because you don't need the disc to do Wubi, also really it would be better to do a proper partitioned install | 19:33 |
| joaopinto | PsychoMario, try asking on #Linux, this is for ubuntu support, not linux in general | 19:33 |
| meTTy | David-T, yes that works (still doesn't make sense to me ;D) | 19:33 |
| dublued2 | i'm having an issue with ATI x1950 PCI-E graphics card. I have an asus mobo with onboard nvidia card. i installed the new hardware hoping that it would automatically detect or atleast show me some picture so i can find and install the correct drivers. what ends up happening is that ubuntu starts up fine but right when it boots up, i get a dialog box that i cannot read because the resolution is so messed up. when i click ok on it, it takes me | 19:33 |
| dublued2 | to another window which has 4 options, again not being able to read those options | 19:33 |
| sun` | i remember i had the same problem with 7.10 once. | 19:33 |
| PsychoMario | Dr_Willis: I did say i like old hardware. I have about 30 floppys | 19:34 |
| Deihmos | i am using update manager | 19:34 |
| manlymatt83 | Any major differences between 9.04 and 9.10? Just installed 9.04 but saw I could upgrade to 9.10. Worth it for now? | 19:34 |
| NetLarIrvine | 9.10 is crap | 19:34 |
| sun` | anything which can be done? as it starts downloading the same iso again. | 19:34 |

| typhoon22 | so..any news on sis drivers? the 671 ones for 9.04 don't work on 9.10 | 19:34 |
| SpinachHead | will an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 slow the system down? Would it be better to do a clean install to 9.10 installed? | 19:34 |
| josefrichter | Dr_Willis: ok, thank you very much. | 19:34 |
| typhoon22 | I'm wondering if anyone knows if these are being worked on? | 19:34 |
| typhoon22 | josefrichter: run firefox and press f11 is that the kind of thing you want? | 19:34 |
| NetLarIrvine | 9.10 is awful?? | 19:34 |
| m4rk | I prefer the startup animation on 9.04...I think the 9.10 look will take a bit to get used to | 19:34 |

| Dr_Willis | PsychoMario: TinyCoreLinux is the most 'small/features' disrto ive seen.. Puppy Linux is 2nd at 100mb in size. good luck :) | 19:35 |
| sebsebseb | NetLarIrvine: no | 19:35 |
| om26er | sun' so you can successfully install wubi in my case it gives a bcedit error during install | 19:35 |
| NetLarIrvine | going back to 9.04 | 19:35 |
| cuddlefish | PsychoMario: Slitaz with netboot? | 19:35 |
| David-T | meTTy: ok. the router must be blocking connections from host1 to host2 port 22. | 19:35 |
| Deihmos | what ubuntu needs is a total make over. seems to be stuck in the windows xp era | 19:35 |
| josefrichter | typhoon22: probably yes. but F11 doesnt work in FF on MacOS, thats why I am asking about linux | 19:35 |
| tritium | NetLarIrvine: do you need help with something in particular? | 19:35 |
| David-T | meTTy: the reasons for that depend entirely on your network setup, the type of router, and the router configuration, so I can't really help much. | 19:35 |
| DeeTay | Bonsoir tout le monde ! | 19:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Deihmos: go use Kubuntu then perhaps | 19:35 |

| solka | i've installed karmic on a hard drive, the installer created this line in /etc/crypttab: cryptswap1 /dev/sda3 /dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-cbc-essiv:sha256. After that i connected the second hard drive to the machine, and booted off the first one. The second hard drive happened to be detected as /dev/sda, and ext4 filesystem on this "other" /dev/sda3 became corrupted. I suspect that cryptsetup could be the culprit, but found nothing susp | 19:35 |
| solka | icious in /etc/init.d/cryptdisks*. Any thoughts? | 19:35 |
| NetLarIrvine | tritium: the wireless network connections to wpa does not work | 19:36 |

| bazhang | DeeTay, #ubuntu-fr pour francais | 19:36 |
| cuddlefish | petew: yes, what's broken? | 19:36 |
| joaopinto | ppl, could you please discussing theming and tastes on #ubuntu-offtopic ? | 19:36 |
| cuddlefish | !language > DeeTay | 19:36 |
| sun` | see, im trying to install using wubi. in copying files, it starts downloading data from Internet instead of copying it from disc. | 19:36 |
| tritium | NetLarIrvine: which wireless card do you have? | 19:36 |
| NetLarIrvine | tritium: i read up on it too and lot of people having problems | 19:36 |
| sun` | this is the second iso, i have downloaded. | 19:36 |
| typhoon22 | josefrichter: ah ok, try the live cd then, itll only cost you a cd to find out..you can download packages and firefox plugins..if its not what you want then just bin the cd | 19:36 |
| tritium | NetLarIrvine: URL, please? | 19:36 |
| sebsebseb | sun`: Why Wubi, instead of doing a proper partitioned install from the CD? | 19:36 |
| om26er | sun' are you using a cd ? | 19:36 |
| petew | just installed karmic, the internal speakers are working but not the headphone jack | 19:36 |
| QPrime | NetLarIrvine: I've been playing with Karmic since Alpha1, and while it does have some rough edges, it's generally fine. Lots of changes in preparation for 10.04 (the LTS release) | 19:36 |
| NetLarIrvine | linkssy | 19:36 |
| Picipod | !en | 19:36 |
| David-T | meTTy: nope, if you can run 'ssh user@host2' on host2, then sshd on host2 is working. if the same command doesn't work from host1, it's something else between them that is the problem. | 19:36 |

| Dr_Willis | Id reccomend using virtualbox instead of Wubi | 19:36 |
| sebsebseb | sun`: in the long run, a proper partitioned install is better, for testing Ubuntu maybe Wubi | 19:36 |
| saketh | Dr_Willis: what shud i do? | 19:37 |
| josefrichter | typhoon22: already starting up as virtual machine :-) will see | 19:37 |
| Dr_Willis | saketh: about what? I missed the issue. :P | 19:37 |

| NetLarIrvine | tritium: 9.04 was flawless for me | 19:37 |

| webbb82 | im not sure what i did but . im running ubuntu with kde and gnome installed, im running the gnome one rite now but i just tried to download gdm 2.20 in synaptic and then it crashed halfway threw. so now im not sure what | 19:38 |
| saketh | Dr_Willis: i googled it, but couldnt find anything. | 19:38 |
| sun` | you mean mount a virtual cd? | 19:38 |
| typhoon22 | josefrichter: heh heh, or you could do that :-P | 19:38 |
| om26er | sun' yes | 19:38 |
| mirak | is there a way to list only the real name of a file pointed by a symlink ? | 19:38 |
| infernix | trying to get some keys, is keyserver.ubuntu.com dead? keep getting timeouts again and again. | 19:38 |

| sebsebseb | webbb82: when trying to log in | 19:38 |
| mirak | julianoliver: yes but there are other infos | 19:39 |
| sun` | aright, let me try it to. | 19:39 |
| julianoliver | mirak: ahh sorry.. use awk. | 19:39 |
| webbb82 | i didnt log out yet lol. scared | 19:39 |

| dublued2 | i'm upgrading from my onboard vga card to ati x1950 and having some issues. can i install the drivers first and then physically put the card in? | 19:40 |
| om26er | Isgren: i would say don't throw that as a karmic prblem | 19:40 |
| madsj | why isn't there a root-user that you can login with ? | 19:40 |
| julianoliver | mirak: ls -l /path/to/symlink | awk '{ print $10 } ' | 19:40 |
| webbb82 | so i think synaptic removed gdm when it was trying to install gdm 2.20 so should i do a -f install or | 19:40 |
| jken146 | !root | 19:40 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 19:40 |

| sebsebseb | joeyeye: since Karmic has been released | 19:41 |
| Isgren | om26er, ok it works well in normal mode, but in fullscreen it wont work | 19:41 |
| om26er | joeyeye: yes | 19:41 |
| typhoon22 | madsj: there is, you can go into user manager in system->administration and reset the password | 19:41 |
| madsj | cuddlefish: there is on most other distributions | 19:41 |
| cuddlefish | yeah but not ubuntu | 19:41 |
| joeyeye | can anyone assist with compiz on karmic and Intel 945G video ? | 19:41 |
| webbb82 | no in synaptic there is a package called gdm-2.20 and i tried to install it thinking it was some theme manager but i think it was installing gnome 2.20 | 19:41 |
| cuddlefish | and gdm by default kills login by root | 19:41 |
| webbb82 | i dunno | 19:41 |

| Isgren | om26er, found some forum post to download the tar.gz file from adobe then put the file in usb/lib/firefox/plugins but still have the same problem | 19:42 |
| madsj | typhoon22: I suppose I can do that from a terminal when I've used "sudo su" | 19:42 |
| jken146 | madsj: There is no root password in ubuntu. Sudo will be sufficient for everything. You *can* have a root password if you want, but there is no need. | 19:42 |
| sun` | i should go for cloning this system. | 19:42 |
| joeyeye | om26er, no compiz fails and fallsback to metacity | 19:42 |
| sun` | GHOOST! | 19:42 |
| om26er | Isgren: so you are using 64bit? | 19:42 |
| cuddlefish | madsj: if you are really obstinate: start in single-user mode and run startx | 19:42 |
| jken146 | madsj: yes, or sudo -i | 19:42 |
| fribuntu | Can anyone tell me what I have to do to get this working? How and where do I specify a dir file? | 19:42 |
| sebsebseb | webbb82: This new GDM can't be themed like the one one | 19:42 |

| obiwan_ | julianoliver: yeah, but then they're lost, REST is supposed to say the server the offset of bytes i have, so for example, if file is 10 bytes, i don't download them all, but just from the REST (6 for example) on, so i just downlaod the last 4 bytes, and not the whole 10. But what i have is a total size of 6, and a rest of 10, that's impossible! | 19:50 |

| julianoliver | klaido: it's worse for some yes but i think it's having the greatest success on weird hardware i've seen so far. the channel's actually much less plagued with disaster upgrades than last Jaunty's release. | 19:51 |

| Random832 | hdon, what does your .xsession look like? | 19:51 |
| trism | Guest40101: it's probably conky | 19:52 |
| Random832 | when the last command it started exits (or if the last command is in the background), it will exit immediately and log you out | 19:52 |

| julianoliver | klaido: all said, i think it's best to avoid the upgrade and just backup home and start from scratch. | 19:52 |

| hdon | Random832: do i have to run something at the end of the .xsession file? | 19:52 |
| Random832 | hdon, the xsession is a shell script. when it finishes it logs you out. most people start something at the end that will stay running for their entire session (the window manager) | 19:52 |

| Casper1 | im trying to watch a wmv but it says its encrypted | 20:15 |
| m4rk | tanath, are you on version 9.10? if so then it's in synaptic package manager | 20:15 |
| tanath | TLF, i would hope not | 20:15 |
| drakeman | HEY is worth thechange from debian to kubuntu for a desktop pc | 20:15 |

| bondolo | so i downloaded karmic cd via torrent and trying to upgrade. update-manage doesn't seem to consider the cd as a source and wants to download everything. how do i make update-manager consider the cd as a source | 20:15 |
| jrib | drakeman: only you can decide that. Try both, and use what you like | 20:15 |
| TLF | tanath: but now it's possible to add ppa's via ppa: directly right? | 20:15 |
| mzawieska | any1 know how to set up share folder via samba | 20:16 |
| mzawieska | three computer set up to the same network | 20:16 |
| penguin42 | Morydd: hmm odd, did you ever manually download it | 20:16 |
| joaopinto | bondolo, you can only upgrade with the alternate cd, not with the regular desktop cd | 20:16 |
| jrib | mzawieska: right click on folder -> share | 20:16 |
| mzawieska | i want to create share folder | 20:16 |
| === NorwayGeek is now known as iGhost | ||
| tanath | m4rk, why would _turning off_ a feature be in synaptic? | 20:16 |
| guntbert | !ot | drakeman | 20:16 |
| ubottu | drakeman: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 20:16 |
| anao | hallo@all where do i find the basics of karmic "inside" like gdm start/stop there is much new.. | 20:16 |

| cherva | what is a LSO for target in iptables ? | 20:17 |
| tanath | m4rk, i presume you mean to remove it? what's the packagename? | 20:17 |
| penguin42 | utku: If they've all gone then you can turn them backon by going to preferences->appearance-> and there is an options to turn icons in menus on | 20:17 |
| trism | anao: check out http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910overview | 20:17 |
| rictec | hum got here nice | 20:18 |
| bondolo | joaopinto, zvacet : nope, i download the standard desktop one. i was hoping by having the cd it would avoid most of the package downloads of an online install. :-( I guess I will just let it spend 7 hours downloading. | 20:18 |
| guntbert | !hi | rictec | 20:18 |
| ubottu | rictec: 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! | 20:18 |
| fribuntu | btw: I found the problem with my cvs (and hence Eclipse) installation. I installed TeXLive 2008 manually and it had a conflicting install-info version that took precedence over the ubuntu one. | 20:18 |
| zelrikriando | what a .build does? | 20:18 |
| utku | penguin42: Worked! Thanks a lot. | 20:18 |
| penguin42 | utku: Np | 20:19 |
| vak | hi all | 20:19 |
| rictec | anyone knows any simple way to check if i have mplayer xine and myth tv on 9.10 vdpau enable? | 20:19 |
| hiems | Hello... On Karmic, 64-bit, ATI proprietary driver make the system freeze at boot, right when it starts the x server, with a blank screen... Any idea? | 20:19 |
| tanath | m4rk, found it. it's not installed | 20:19 |
| fribuntu | The hint about "are you using the original repositories" made me wonder what might have gone wrong. So please, fwiw DON'T manually install anything if you don't have nerves of steel and know what you are doing. | 20:19 |
| zvacet | bondolo : make separarwe home if you don´t have one http://psychocats.s465.sureserver.com/ubuntu/separatehome | 20:19 |
| Morydd | penguin42: it's possible that I did at some point. | 20:19 |
| zelrikriando | what a .build does? | 20:20 |
| aquachica | Does anyone know why the broadcast list on Network Connections, in 9.10, is only showing "wlan0", "eth0", and "lo" instead of the broadcasts available? | 20:20 |
| m4rk | which package, tanath ? | 20:20 |
| jrib | mzawieska: what ubuntu versions? | 20:20 |
| tanath | m4rk, ubuntuone | 20:20 |
| guntbert | zelrikriando: I cannot understand your question - please rephrase | 20:20 |
| zvacet | bondolo: then install karmic on root and don´t format home | 20:20 |
| penguin42 | Morydd: Hmm I wonder where you put it! Maybe ~/.mozilla/plugins? | 20:20 |
| mzawieska | 9.10 | 20:20 |
| Xgates | eper3z: why don't you just use Transmission, it works fine and less hassles... | 20:20 |
| jrib | mzawieska: on both server and client? | 20:20 |
| fribuntu | I only opted to manually install texlive, because the version provided by ubuntu is seriously outdated. 2007 as opposed to 2008 with 2009 in beta now. | 20:20 |
| mzawieska | !jrib 9.10 | 20:20 |
| jrib | !who | mzawieska | 20:20 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about jrib 9.10 | 20:20 |
| zelrikriando | guntbert, I was wondering what a .build format means | 20:21 |
| ubottu | mzawieska: 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 :) | 20:21 |
| jtheuer | Hi, does anyone know if ubuntuone is available for hardy? (is hardy still the most recent LTS version?) | 20:21 |
| fribuntu | Anyone else using LaTeX? | 20:21 |
| mzawieska | yea they run 9.10 | 20:21 |
| Arsin | Hey, my songs are skipping like mad, I'm reading them off another drive and I'm using songbird | 20:21 |
| eper3z | im used to my utorrent! | 20:21 |
| tanath | Xgates, eper3z i'd recommend Deluge over Transmission | 20:21 |
| mebigfatguy | all: keyserver.ubuntu.com is timing out? expected? massive traffic? | 20:21 |
| eper3z | seems like its a drive permissions issue i have | 20:21 |
| Xgates | tanath: ahh didn't hear that one... | 20:22 |
| guntbert | zelrikriando: I don't recall "a .build format". are you talking about a file named something.build ? | 20:22 |
| zelrikriando | guntbert, I am trying to install root-system but I am having huge problems because of this : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/root-system/+bug/462059 | 20:22 |
| vak | fonts in browsers... they are not that nice... how to fix it? | 20:22 |
| eper3z | just not knowledge to know how to set them manually, because via the gui doesnt seem to be working Xgates | 20:22 |
| mzawieska | two computers run on linux ubuntu 9.10 one is windows xp | 20:22 |
| tanath | Xgates, seems to be the best native linux torrent client. | 20:22 |
| mzawieska | i am trying to share the folder of my computer(ubuntu 9.10) | 20:22 |
| zelrikriando | guntbert, so I was actually wondering what was the file.build.gz posted on there | 20:22 |
| jrib | mzawieska: if you want me to be able to help you, please use my nick... | 20:22 |
| jrib | mzawieska: can you see the share on the server itself? | 20:23 |
| mzawieska | can we talk in privet room? | 20:23 |
| Xgates | tanath: actually maybe I did hear, just can't remember at the moment, but the GUI looks like I've seen it | 20:23 |
| tanath | eper3z, deluge is similar to utorrent | 20:23 |
| jrib | mzawieska: no, just use my nick | 20:23 |
| mzawieska | how can i do it? | 20:23 |
| Xgates | eper3z: just not knowledge for what? | 20:23 |
| s0101 | is it only me having problem downloading ubuntu 9.10 from www.ubuntu.com | 20:23 |
| jrib | mzawieska: type the symbols "jrib: " before everything you say to me | 20:23 |
| trism | mzawieska: j<tab> your message here | 20:23 |
| om26er | eper3z: much similar and great in for ubuntu | 20:23 |
| mzawieska | jrib, okay | 20:24 |
| eper3z | to set the permissions for the directory/drive im trying to download my torrents to | 20:24 |
| Xgates | Deluge does like like uTorrent, pretty similar... | 20:24 |
| fribuntu | mzawieska: right click on the folder -- sharing options -- and do what it says | 20:24 |
| petew | fribuntu: any ideas about my sound problem? | 20:24 |
| mzawieska | i did it | 20:24 |
| mzawieska | doesnt work | 20:24 |
| fribuntu | petew: I am still waiting for that lspci output about sound and/or multimedia devices. | 20:24 |
| mzawieska | i am not able to see even on the network that my folders are shared | 20:24 |
| Hilariousity | Hi I messed up grub and have been attempting to fix it with the livecd but fdisk -l doesn't give me any output from the liveCD. Is there any other way that I can list the partitions | 20:24 |
| eper3z | when i try to edit file access settings in permissions tab, it just auto resets to "-" Xgates | 20:25 |
| iaindalton | I got the alternate CD and in the middle if installing, it's asking for another CD. Which one is that? | 20:25 |

| vak | Q: anyone knows how to get nice fonts? (I need them mainly for browsers) | 20:25 |
| guntbert | zelrikriando: sorry, no idea, but I *guess* it just a folder with source files.... | 20:25 |
| jrib | iaindalton: did you "check the cd for defects" before trying to install? | 20:25 |
| jrib | mzawieska: no. | 20:25 |
| mzawieska | god | 20:25 |
| mzawieska | :/ | 20:25 |
| iaindalton | jrib: Yeah. | 20:25 |
| erana | Hilariousity: disklabel -E | 20:25 |
| Xgates | eper3z: well like tanath said you should use Deluge, it's very similar to uTorrent, there's not reason not to use it, my god man you're in Linux, dump that Windows app and quit messing with Wine, because Wine can get complicated if you are not experienced... :) | 20:26 |
| mzawieska | jrib, any ideas how to solve it | 20:26 |
| jrib | iaindalton: and it said there were no errors? | 20:26 |
| zvacet | iaindalton : it must be some mistake there is no other cd | 20:26 |
| phantomcircuit | I have subpixel hinting turned on but it doesnt seem to be working in firefox | 20:26 |
| d0wn | Not sure if there is one of these for linux like there is Windows, but is there an app to scan an .mpeg file for common errors, and fix if it can? | 20:26 |
| jrib | mzawieska: I asked you a question already. Can you see the share on the server itself? | 20:26 |
| tristil | I have a strange situation with Karmic. I can't use any of the gnome-control-center programs because of an error "Failed to open file '/usr/share/gnome-control-center/ui/display-capplet.ui'" Sure enough, that file doesn't exist. | 20:26 |
| iaindalton | jrib: no errors. | 20:26 |
| mzawieska | jrib, how can i do it? | 20:26 |
| eper3z | thanks Xgates, ill look into it | 20:26 |
| eper3z | :) | 20:26 |
| jrib | iaindalton: well it's not supposed to ask you | 20:26 |
| tristil | Or any files under /usr/share/gnome-control-center. | 20:26 |
| mzawieska | jrib, u mean on the network | 20:26 |
| mzawieska | jrib, the folder not showing off | 20:26 |

| guntbert | zelrikriando: then I have really no idea at all - sorry | 20:27 |
| iaindalton | The title of the curses window is "Install the base system". It reads: Please insert the disk labeled: 'Ubuntu 9.10 _Karmic Koala_ - Release i386 (20091027)' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter. | 20:28 |

| mzawieska | jrib, could not find localhost | 20:29 |
| tanath | jrib, how the hell am i supposed to manually file a bug now? | 20:29 |
| penguin42 | Morydd: Use dpkg _S to find which packages own each of those files | 20:29 |
| trism | tanath: yeah, they seem to have disabled it on launchpad, they want you to use ubuntu-bug now | 20:30 |
| penguin42 | tanath: It's horrid, you have to use ubuntu-bug | 20:30 |
| hackbench | using 9.10 right now, where is that network icon under administration? i need to change dns settings | 20:30 |

| tanath | penguin42, thatnks | 20:31 |
| trism | docmax: why don't you just use xnview? there is a linux version listed on their site | 20:31 |
| mzawieska | jrib, how can i check what is my local ip | 20:31 |

| Random832 | (output when running lsb_release with no argument) | 20:32 |

| mebigfatguy | guntbert: thanks -- seemed to work | 20:32 |
| hackbench | jken146, ah i see, checked that but missed ipv4 settings section, thanks | 20:32 |
| tanath | Xgates, and no. not necessarily | 20:32 |
| zvacet | chinmaya : it could be because servers are busy everybody want Karmic | 20:32 |
| guntbert | mebigfatguy: np :) | 20:32 |
| mzawieska | jrib, this is the 192.168.1.6 | 20:32 |

| guntbert | !please | newuser901 | 20:33 |
| ubottu | newuser901: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 20:33 |
| Morydd | penguin42: both show swfdec-mozilla | 20:33 |
| tanath | penguin42, didn't see the link | 20:33 |
| newuser901 | !please | 20:33 |

| Xgates | tanath: I mean no offense, but newbies shouldn't be filing bugs for many reasons and the fact they can't figure out their tools to do so, proves one point, PLUS what one person sees as a bug with no experience typically ends up being user error many times, anyhow..... | 20:34 |

| SporkWitch | mebigfatguy: guess just bad timing on my part, then; buddy swears up and down by ubuntu, figured i'd give it a shot since i'd heard it usually sees most laptop stuff out of the box, but yeah, once the GUI loads (which takes about 10-15 minutes, no exageration), i get no response from keyboard or touchpad (not even the numlock indicator, when i hit numlock), and it eventually puts itself to sleep due to lack of input | 20:52 |

| xiong | ChrisH, I don't object to memory being fully used. There is indeed some small amount free, which seems reasonable. But how else to account for the slowdown? I tend to suspect that when memory fills up (on my machine), applications are unloading and reloading subroutines when possible. Swap space is completely empty, all the time. I'd think the swapping process would be more efficient than application logic; that's what swap is for. | 21:05 |

| lorenzosu | !help | UbuntuGuy | 21:09 |
| ubottu | UbuntuGuy: 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. :-) | 21:09 |

| Dekko | can someone please help me with the problem with the icon theme? | 21:09 |
| lorenzosu | sebsebseb: 9.04 | 21:09 |
| erUSUL | UbuntuGuy: offtopic and too advenced for this channel. ask in a progrmming oriented one | 21:09 |
| sebsebseb | !kde | lorenzosu | 21:09 |
| ubottu | lorenzosu: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . See http://kubuntu.org for more information. For more information on KDE 4, see !kde4 | 21:09 |
| sebsebseb | wrong one | 21:09 |
| sebsebseb | !kde3 | lorenzosu | 21:10 |
| erUSUL | lorenzosu: what do you want to build ? is not in the repos ? | 21:10 |
| ubottu | lorenzosu: Kubuntu 8.04 ships with KDE3 and full support. Jaunty does not include KDE3 but a remix install CD can be obtained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty . This is not officially supported. Support, instructions and ways to contribute can be found on the wiki page | 21:10 |
| lorenzosu | erUSUL: No. It's testing stuff. | 21:10 |
| sebsebseb | lorenzosu: There's the KDE 3 remix CD for 9.04, but there's also a ppa that can be added | 21:10 |

| Joric | what's wrong with my computer ubuntu 9.10 always says out of range | 21:11 |
| Dasda | jrib: same thing. I have alternate cd mounted but its not autobooting | 21:12 |
| erUSUL | Joric: when trying to install ? tried with vga= options ? | 21:12 |
| erUSUL | !find openmpi | 21:12 |
| jrib | Dasda: it wouldn't. Just use apt-cdrom yourself | 21:12 |
| Joric | it's a quite common lg flatron l1710 and 7600gs | 21:12 |
| SetiAmon | heck I'll just download and try a fresh install | 21:12 |
| xiong | ChrisH, Sorry, I'm not sure I follow that. I've only been using Linux for about a year; much is still new to me, although I have extensive tech background and a good feel for what's going on. I don't think swap is properly configured in the first place. | 21:13 |
| Joric | i wonder how they managed to break video drivers since 9.04 | 21:13 |
| Dasda | jrib: what do I type in terminal to boot it? | 21:13 |
| ubottu | Found: gromacs-openmpi, libhdf5-openmpi-1.6.6-0, libhdf5-openmpi-dev, libopenmpi-dbg, libopenmpi-dev (and 4 others) | 21:13 |
| jrib | Dasda: you don't boot it, you add it as a repository | 21:13 |
| [manas] | jrib, thanks i think i know and sorry again | 21:13 |
| camadas | Guys what is your advice on how much space should i give to the / partition ? | 21:13 |
| jrib | Dasda: ubottu's link should explain this | 21:13 |
| jrib | [manas]: no need to be sorry! | 21:13 |
| jrib | camadas: between 10 and 30gb probably | 21:14 |
| erUSUL | camadas: 10-15 GiB | 21:14 |
| hinotf | hi all | 21:14 |
| UbuntuGuy | openmpi !!!! (HELP !!!) | 21:14 |
| Promethes | anyone having problems with switching youtube videos to fullscreen in karmic? | 21:14 |
| Joric | erUSUL, vga didn't work for me, textmode + nvidia glx 185 | 21:14 |
| mebigfatguy | no sound: followed this: http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2009/10/29/upgrade-alsa-1-0-21-on-ubuntu-karmic-koala-9-10/comment-page-1/#comment-341 at the end shows 1.0.21 --- and sudo alsaconf says command not found.... and no sound .... grrr | 21:14 |
| jrib | UbuntuGuy: detailed questions!!! (Please !!!) | 21:14 |
| xiong | ChrisH, As I browse around, I see explanations of how to set up swap but they seem to disagree wildly. | 21:14 |
| Joric | it should be fixed imo | 21:14 |
| iaindalton | [manas]: I give myself 15G on a 160G HDD | 21:14 |
| camadas | So 20Gb to the /, 2Gb to the swap and 60Gb to the /home is more then enought ? | 21:14 |
| vigo | UbuntuGuy: Have you read the forums? | 21:14 |
| iaindalton | [manas]: If you have many games, though, you'll want more. | 21:14 |
| jrib | camadas: yeah, that sounds good | 21:14 |
| inx-mdg | Does anyone here use clive to dowload videos? Any experience with watching in framebuffer? | 21:15 |
| erUSUL | camadas: yes | 21:15 |
| iaindalton | oops, a mean camadas not [manas] | 21:15 |
| thiebaude | camadas, sounds good | 21:15 |
| === floopsie is now known as Floops | ||
| [manas] | iaindalton, it ok man | 21:15 |
| camadas | hehe :P | 21:15 |
| camadas | Thanks, but iaindalton for games i have the desktop | 21:15 |
| jrib | iaindalton: I think you want to target camadas , not [manas] ? | 21:15 |
| hinotf | network manager asked for passwrd after each logon | 21:15 |
| iaindalton | jrib: you're late ;-) | 21:15 |
| camadas | Since i have the linux on the laptop | 21:15 |
| jrib | iaindalton: :( | 21:16 |
| Dekko | isn't there anyone here who can help me with this issue? | 21:16 |
| jrib | !helpme | Dekko | 21:16 |
| ubottu | Dekko: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 21:16 |
| hinotf | how can I prevent this? | 21:16 |
| msk | qq all | 21:16 |
| platius | UbuntuGuy, http://ubuntuforums.org/ you might find what you need foraging through here | 21:16 |
| jrib | hinotf: everyone who just read that has absolutely no clue what "this" is | 21:16 |
| Dasda | jrib: this did it gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" | 21:16 |
| Dekko | jrib: do you know how to remove an icon theme entry from appearance settings that is no longer installed? | 21:16 |
| jrib | Dasda: good | 21:16 |
| hinotf | jrib: network manager asked for passwrd after each logon | 21:16 |
| jrib | Dekko: it must be installed, are you certain it is not? | 21:17 |
| guntbert | hinotf: does network manager ask for the password or does gnome-keyring ask for the passphrase? | 21:17 |
| xiong | ChrisH, One fellow had a mismatch between fstab and swapon -s but that doesn't seem to be my case. | 21:17 |
| iaindalton | hinotf: is it an encrypted network? | 21:17 |
| Dekko | jrib: I uninstalled it and it is gone, but the entry for it is not. | 21:17 |
| Enselic | I can't ping my new Ubuntu 9.10 box, but the Ubuntu 9.10 box can ping other computers on my local network, anyone know how to troubleshoot? I'm stuck | 21:17 |
| Dekko | jrib: there is a folder icon with a question mark next to it. | 21:17 |
| jrib | Dekko: how did you uninstall it? | 21:17 |
| Dekko | jrib: I selected 'Delete'. | 21:18 |
| ChrisH | enselic: netmask set correctly? | 21:18 |
| ajl59_ | I have a problem with the workspace switch functionality. Hard to describe. I habitually use both the menu bar switcher applet and the ctrl-alt-{left/right} keystroke to change workspaces. If I use ctrl-alt-l/r, the visible programs change, but the applet still shows me as being on the same workspace. If I use the applet, the menu bars disappear (so I can't switch back) and I'm shown a completely different workspace. | 21:18 |
| jrib | Dekko: check your ~/.themes | 21:18 |
| Enselic | ChrisH: yes, ifconfig shows the correct netmask | 21:18 |
| rm200910 | Hi. Is there a command line equivalent to double click in an explorer window? In cygwin/Windows I could do 'cygstart myfile.ext' and there may be something like that in ubunut/Gnome. Thanks | 21:18 |
| Dekko | jrib: themes empty. | 21:18 |
| Flannel | rm200910: gnome-open file | 21:18 |
| Enselic | ChrisH: and I can ping other computers, so it must be correct | 21:18 |
| ChrisH | enselic: firewall on the 9.10 box not allowing icmp from remote? | 21:18 |
| hinotf | yes, it's encrypted network, but applet network maanger asked for sudo password | 21:18 |
| Enselic | ChrisH: could be, how do I check? | 21:18 |
| rm200910 | Flannel: Thanks! Works great | 21:19 |
| ChrisH | enselic: iptables -L | 21:19 |
| jrib | Dekko: you've closed Appearances and opened it again? | 21:19 |
| UbuntuGuy | <jrib> | 21:19 |
| jrib | UbuntuGuy: ? | 21:19 |
| happyface | How can I use a USB keyboard media controls in koala? | 21:19 |
| iaindalton | hinotf: That's because the network manager is storing the passwords for the networks in your keyring, which requires a password to access. | 21:20 |
| balzac | ok, i opened up the computer, took out the intel wireless and put in the atheros/broadcom | 21:20 |
| nsgn | argh! i'm trying to upgrade to 9.10 using the alternate ISO file mounted (rather than burned) on a computer without an internet connection. it fails every time complaining it can't connect to ubuntu's servers to fetch the ~1600 files needed. i told it NOT to use web upgrades. | 21:20 |

| Enselic | ChrisH: looks ok, everything is ACCEPT | 21:20 |
| quickdraw | lol | 21:20 |
| Dekko | jrib: yes. Now I did try something else. Reinstalled the icon theme... now i have one working entry for it and the old non working entry for it STILL there. | 21:20 |
| UbuntuGuy | <jrib> i want to ask you aspecific question but i want your attention pls Friend !!!! | 21:20 |
| jrib | UbuntuGuy: sure, go ahead | 21:21 |
| jrib | Dekko: don't know then | 21:21 |
| mebigfatguy | in alsomixer the first page is pulseaudio second page is SB Audigy is this wrong, should audigy be first? | 21:21 |

| Dekko | jrib: there must be some way to FIX that right? | 21:21 |
| Whitor | Does the 64bit version of ubuntu run 32 bit apps ? | 21:21 |
| jrib | Dekko: yes | 21:21 |
| UbuntuGuy | i want to install openmpi ?? | 21:22 |
| UbuntuGuy | do you know it | 21:22 |
| jrib | Whitor: yes and no. It can, but you won't have packages from the repository that are 32bit. There isn't much need anyway | 21:22 |
| hinotf | iaindalton, how can I set autoaccess to keyring for network manager? | 21:22 |
| iaindalton | hinotf: AFAIK you can't. | 21:22 |
| rm200910 | !help UbuntuGuy | 21:22 |
| quickdraw | if one makes a file executable with chmod, shouldn't you be able to mv or cp it to $PATH? or is there another way that I am not finding? | 21:22 |
| iaindalton | hinotf: But I don't know much. | 21:22 |
| ChrisH | enselic: 1. draw a picture of your network with all relevant information like router, firealls, ips, netmasks for you. 2. are there other devices involved? | 21:22 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about help UbuntuGuy | 21:22 |
| ubuntuuser | I am trying to install ubuntu (I'm currently on my live cd) but the fourth step where I am supposed to "prepare partitions" it doesn't find any! I've tried setting the partition as unallocated, as unformatted, as formated to ext3, as formatted to ext4, as formatted to ext3 and mounted to /, as formatted to ext4 and mounted to /, but nothing works! | 21:22 |
| Whitor | jrib, ok thanks | 21:22 |
| jrib | UbuntuGuy: sure, just search for libopenmpi and install it I imagine | 21:22 |
| xiong | There seem to be a goodly number of users all with some variation of "ubuntu not using swap" | 21:23 |

| quatar-it | hi all. In karmic, how to login by *typing* my username? (i don't want to let my users be listed in the login window) | 21:25 |
| quickdraw | erUSUL: sudo mv conky_start $PATH | 21:25 |
| Fager | How can I hide the little icon in the tasktray that gnome-settings-daemon puts there. Ididn't have it before | 21:25 |
| erUSUL | quickdraw: you can't do that ... | 21:25 |
| quickdraw | heh heh. I'm working off of a guide, and I'm an ubernewb to what $PATH is. lol. | 21:25 |
| quickdraw | haha. I had a feeling that was my problem. | 21:26 |
| erUSUL | quickdraw: $PATH is a list of folders not just one | 21:26 |
| UbuntuGuy8 | help in openmpi | 21:26 |
| xiong | Ah. The "not using swap" issue may be triggered by a corrupt hibernation file. | 21:26 |
| ruthgard | Why can't you send files with empathy? | 21:26 |
| happyface | How can I use a USB keyboard media controls in koala? | 21:26 |
| erUSUL | quickdraw: sudo mv conky_start /usr/local/bin/ <<< | 21:26 |
| ruthgard | !empathy | 21:26 |
| ubottu | Empathy is an instant messaging and video chat client for GNOME. In !karmic, Empathy will replace Pidgin as the default IM client. | 21:26 |
| mebigfatguy | !later | 21:26 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about later | 21:26 |
| thepro | Any one know how to type Japanese? | 21:26 |
| quickdraw | so if a howto says "Move file to $PATH", I can basically just mv or cp the file to any of the ones listed in the error? | 21:26 |
| iaindalton | The LiveCD has an empty file called ubiquity-gtkui.desktop on the desktop. Despite being empty, the CD integrity test passes. How can I start the installation? | 21:26 |
| guntbert | !info openmpi-bin | UbuntuGuy8 | 21:26 |
| ubottu | UbuntuGuy8: openmpi-bin (source: openmpi): high performance message passing library -- binaries. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.2-3ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 133 kB, installed size 348 kB | 21:26 |
| dupondje | ruthgard: no support for transfers atm, quite sux imo ... just install pidgin again ;) | 21:26 |
| trism | thepro: it was a bit of a struggle for me, but it should just work going to System/Administration/Language Support, install the japanese support, set the input method to ibus and then go to System/Preferences/Ibus properties and set up the default properties (making anthy first in the input method list is useful) | 21:27 |
| Flannel | !details | UbuntuGuy8 | 21:27 |
| ubottu | UbuntuGuy8: 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 ..." | 21:27 |
| ubuntuuser | Xgates, it's an "ATA" and I have freebsd as dual boot and it works (well it worked yesterday, now GRUB doesn't work so I can't boot into it) and ubuntu 9.04 was working on exactly this partition a few days ago. But the disk utility program tells me there are a few bad sectors, though I do not know what that means | 21:27 |
| trism | thepro: then reboot and you should be good to go | 21:27 |
| ruthgard | doh I want the default, I don't want to mess with the integrations etc | 21:27 |
| purplemojo | anyone else having problems with ACER netbooks and UNR wireless on Live CD? | 21:27 |
| UbuntuGuy8 | how do i can install openmpi & run programm | 21:27 |
| ruthgard | I will just use my webserver instead then :D | 21:27 |
| barchamb | hello! just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10. Under 9.04, i had a script that ran feh to do a slideshow. in 9.10, it doesn't work. feh gives me an error: "feh WARNING: couldn't open /mnt/Docs/Pictures". i can ls or dir that directory just fine, so i know it's mounted... | 21:27 |
| ruthgard | purplemojo: it works good for me | 21:28 |
| ruthgard | purplemojo: I have the aspire one | 21:28 |
| balzac | i'm getting a segfault from leafpad | 21:28 |
| balzac | i really love leafpad | 21:28 |
| trism | thepro: once you have it correctly working, you should be able to use it just like scim, except I haven't managed to find a preference to enable it globally like scim (I have to enable it for each app with ctrl+space) | 21:28 |
| balzac | gedit is too fancy | 21:28 |
| iaindalton | barchamb: how about permissions? | 21:28 |
| sebsebseb | barchamb: yeah would be nice to have a proper random desktop background changer built into Gnome, but nope there isn't one, only add on stuff. KDE 3 and KDE 4 have one though. | 21:29 |
| Xgates | ubuntuuser: your hard drive is bad that is why Ubuntu doesn't see it ---> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bad_sector | 21:29 |
| friedrich__ | hello :) | 21:29 |
| Xgates | ubuntuuser: you need to get a new hdd | 21:29 |
| purplemojo | ruthgard - did you get wifi from liveCD? I have to run it this way... | 21:29 |
| barchamb | permission haven | 21:29 |
| barchamb | permissions haven't changed | 21:29 |
| markatto_ | balzac: no, gedit is just plain bad. learn to use a real editor like vim or emacs. | 21:29 |
| ruthgard | purplemojo: yes I did | 21:29 |
| sebsebseb | barchamb: The version of Gnome has changed. | 21:29 |
| balzac | markatto_: i use emacs | 21:29 |
| purplemojo | never had this problem with previous UNRs. | 21:30 |
| balzac | but i don't want to load it with all extensions for just a bit of text | 21:30 |
| balzac | leafpad is nice | 21:30 |
| dupondje | ruthgard: check http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Protocols%20Support :) | 21:30 |
| balzac | gedit crashed once and i never gave it a second chance | 21:30 |
| markatto_ | balzac: gvim loads in like 1 second | 21:30 |
| duffydack | Whats a good distro for 128mb ram>/ | 21:30 |
| barchamb | here's the permissions: drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 12288 2009-10-18 18:56 Pictures | 21:30 |
| heatherRm | hello i can't log into my main account since i've upgraded to karmic. i can log into an xterm but not xsession. can someone please help | 21:31 |
| balzac | gvim has keybindings i'm not used to | 21:31 |
| balzac | i'll learn it eventually | 21:31 |
| markatto_ | duffydack: not ubuntu. what cpu? | 21:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | duffydack: newpcnux...lol | 21:31 |
| balzac | i'll try it since leafpad got broken | 21:31 |
| haroelcabo | hi, what do I have to install in order to get the system temperature ? | 21:31 |
| sebsebseb | duffydack: Puppy Linux, Daman Small Linux, and maybe Ubuntu with 512MB SWAP space already on there so it will boot up the Live CD properly, or you can try the alternate. | 21:31 |
| [manas] | jrib, sorry but it stupid me again, ok to create a group is sudo addgroup www_var, after sudo adduser manas www_var, but how to give privelleges to group???? | 21:31 |
| balzac | others have noticed as well | 21:31 |
| erUSUL | !lm-sensors | haroelcabo | 21:31 |
| ubottu | haroelcabo: To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. | 21:31 |
| purplemojo | ruthgard, did you fix the wifi issues on your acer aspire? | 21:31 |
| Xgates | duffydack: if you like Ubuntu, you can always do a netinstall of Debian Lenny and install like Blackbox, Openbox, Fluxbox or Pekwm and it will run ok | 21:32 |
| heatherRm | am i muted or something? | 21:32 |
| markatto_ | balzac: kate is way better than gedit, but kde stuff sucks | 21:32 |
| erUSUL | heatherRm: no | 21:32 |
| haroelcabo | erUSUL: thanks | 21:32 |
| daishadar | how can i determine what repository a package is coming from via the command line? | 21:32 |
| jrib | [manas]: first you want to change the group for /var/www using chgrp. Then give the group write permissions: chmod g+w /var/www | 21:32 |
| markatto_ | duffydack: debian > ubuntu anyways :P | 21:32 |
| heatherRm | i haven't been able to get an answer in here for days | 21:32 |
| mathepic | I don't think gedit is bad, but I wouldn't use it for anything big. For small things, its okay. | 21:32 |
| iaindalton | Is there a network install CD that downloads everything? | 21:32 |
| purplemojo | :) | 21:32 |
| Jordan_U_ | daishadar: apt-cache policy package | 21:32 |
| Jordan_U_ | !minimal | iaindalton | 21:32 |
| ubottu | iaindalton: 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).

| Ofanite | hi all, is this a good place to ask about wireless issues on 9.10? or is there a more specific channel for it? | 21:33 |
| robdig | daishadar: apt-cache policy <pkg> is one way | 21:33 |
| ruthgard | purplemojo: I can only tell you that it worked on my aspire one | 21:33 |
| erUSUL | Ofanite: here is a good place | 21:33 |

| Timmymayes | mathepic: i believe | 21:35 |
| Ofanite | Thanks, I have been running 9.04 for a few weeks, everything was running smoothly, wireless worked with no configurations other than my wep key.

| ajl59_ | I have a problem with the workspace switcher. I'm running Jaunty (updated from Intrepid last week, this probably triggered the problem). The problem is as described in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=129634. Basically, the workspace switcher applet and the ctr-alt-{left/right} shortcut appear to move between completely different sets of workspaces. So using the switcher applet to get to workspace 2 then clicking ctrl-alt-right takes me to a workspace | 21:37 |

| Enselic | ChrisH: no other devices involved. It should be noted that both A and B are using wireless interfaces, but I don't see how that could matter much.. | 21:38 |
| ChrisH | enselic: in that case something in between A and B is the bad guy. can B ping B or other devices in the network? | 21:38 |

| mathepic | under background, select transparent background | 21:41 |
| trism | Timmymayes: or UXTerm if you use that | 21:41 |

| m4rk | bugger. OK | 21:41 |
| ChrisH | enslic: thats why I suggested to draw a picture... I assume the router does some filtering | 21:41 |

| Xgates | freevryheid: do as much through apt that way Ubuntu controls the updates/patches/security etc., for you... | 21:46 |
| ermenegildo | i don't have in xubuntu 9.04 | 21:46 |
| dupondje | freevryheid: general rule, apt > manual :) | 21:46 |
| erUSUL | Timmymayes: define them on ~/.bashrc | 21:46 |

| gilligan_ | Mandrew, how is that ubuntu related? | 21:48 |
| Mandrew | well how is it not? | 21:49 |
| trism | thepro: you can configure that in the anthy configure, if you are in anthy mode, on the little language bar in the bottom right there should be an option to edit anthy preferences | 21:49 |
| trism | thepro: I set alt+1 for hiragana, alt+2 katakana, and alt+3 latin...but that's just me | 21:49 |
| Xgates | freevryheid: well use apt when you can of course but if there are problems, then manually install, but try it through Synaptic and CLI, also you have to make sure in your software sources universe and restricted are checked | 21:49 |

| dupondje | btw, somebody knows how to change language of spelling checker in XChat ? | 21:52 |

| icehawk78 | dupondje: Yes. | 21:59 |
| Timmymayes | how do i make the command sudo iwconfig wlan0 54MB happen on bootup? | 22:00 |
| dupondje | you don't have permissions on NTFS .. | 22:00 |
| dupondje | the user that mounts it has all perms .. | 22:00 |
| Gnusboy | I need to find out why the new upgrade to 9.10 will take 3.22 hrs to install | 22:00 |
| dupondje | its windows shit ;) | 22:00 |
| ewig | vigo: very likely, I thought it was smartmontools first, but it still happens after I stopped the daemon | 22:00 |
| dupondje | Gnusboy: get fiber | 22:00 |
| sebastianffx | hi, someone knows how to solve the no-sound problem in 9.10, i have no device on the hardware tab :( | 22:00 |
| icehawk78 | dupondje: Well, I can't access it via a samba share on my windows machine anymore, but what previously able to | 22:00 |
| Plugh | Timmymayes: Add it to /etc/rc.local | 22:00 |
| crazed | how can i change where notifications popup? seems to be too low instead of right under the time/date | 22:01 |

| demonspork | Flash player controls don't work in flash with 64bit 9.10, how do I fix this? Flash version is 10,0,32,18 and this occurs regardless of the browser I use | 22:02 |
| Timmymayes | or just sudo edit | 22:02 |
| guntbert | !pm | Mandrew | 22:02 |
| ubottu | Mandrew: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 22:02 |
| Plugh | Timmymayes: no. Anything in rc.local is run as root during startup. You will need 'sudo' to be able to edit the file. | 22:02 |
| icehawk78 | dupondje: I don't manually mount it - is there a way to give it permissions by default whenever it's mounted so I don't have to repeat it everytime I restart? | 22:02 |
| dupondje | icehawk78: you can set it in /etc/fstab | 22:03 |

| Gnusboy | Again: I have the update ON my computer now | 22:04 |
| Plugh | That reminds me I need to mod my rc.local to start the device driver for my Space Navigator | 22:04 |
| ajl59_ | I have a problem with the workspace switcher. I'm running Jaunty (updated from Intrepid last week, this probably triggered the problem). The problem is as described in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=129634. Basically, the workspace switcher applet and the ctr-alt-{left/right} shortcut appear to move between completely different sets of workspaces. So using the switcher applet to get to workspace 2 then clicking ctrl-alt-right takes me to a workspace | 22:04 |
| lordganesh | can anybody tell me how to use 'at' command | 22:04 |

| metaphlex | i was playing lbreakout2 and i tried to quit but it didn't quite shutdown. i ended up force quiting. but now top is still showing it running at 100% CPU. I've tried pkill and killall lbreakout2 but it won't go away | 22:23 |
| dupondje | gummi: update-grub ... | 22:23 |
| anachronik | how is the upgrade? does it needs any intervention after the "okay to upgrade"? may I let it upgrade and go to sleep? | 22:23 |
| mattgyver | Mandrew, I have broadcom bcm43xx drivers which.... as i have read, are the worst to have. | 22:23 |

| r00to3 | Dist-, these people in here dont account for the thousands of downloads | 22:46 |
| sebsebseb | Dist-: Such as? | 22:46 |
| saji | Dist-, I now use it with no problems at all.. | 22:46 |
| ulrike | sdb2 is like "W95 Erw." instead of W95 FAT32 | 22:47 |
| ulrike | saihtam: | 22:47 |
| Dist- | such as flash being corrupted | 22:47 |
| === adam is now known as Guest4867 | ||
| Dist- | and because of that synaptic package manager and ubuntu update wont work | 22:47 |
| saihtam | ulrike: did u type sudo mount before? | 22:47 |
| matthew1 | saji...such as it won't update from 9.04 | 22:47 |
| Dist- | they detect the error to do with flash, then refuse to run | 22:47 |
| ulrike | saihtam: yes. | 22:47 |
| Dist- | ubuntu update at least offers me the option of removing the package, but that runs into an error | 22:47 |
| thepro | When I updated from 9.04 to 9.10 a lot got bugged. | 22:47 |
| thepro | So I just downloaded 9.10 | 22:47 |
| ulrike | saihtam: what fs-type is "W95 Erw." ?? | 22:48 |
| sedeki | gummi, hehe thank you very much. although it was called compizconfig-settings-manager, in case you want to know. thanks | 22:48 |
| Dist- | it suggests reinstall, but when i try to install flash I get an error about no alternatives for iceape-flashplugin | 22:48 |
| saihtam | ulrike: not sure to long ago I handled fat32.. | 22:48 |
| Argos | hey evryone | 22:48 |
| saji | matthew1, Ya update is a problem... But on fresh install i have no problems at all.. | 22:48 |
| saihtam | man fdisk | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | Dist-: Some people got Adobe Flash issues in 9.04 as well, and not much can be done about them, because Adobe Flash is closed source. | 22:48 |
| dupondje | Dist-: can you !pastebin full error ? | 22:48 |
| Argos | i forgot my password how do i log in again | 22:48 |
| Scunizi_ | Wow... kubuntu download w/ Transmission is at a consistant 1.34 MB/s | 22:48 |
| matthew1 | well I'm glad I came here...I'll just wait for 10.04. For shame. | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | Dist-: Maybe Gnash and Swfdec will be good enough Flash alternatives for what your doing | 22:48 |
| ulrike | saihtam: pattern not found it says for it | 22:48 |
| dupondje | Argos: reboot into recover mode, and change passwd | 22:49 |
| thepro | My suggestion is to back up files, then download 9.10 from scratch | 22:49 |
| Dist- | ill post the errors, give me a sec | 22:49 |
| Argos | thx dupondje | 22:49 |
| thepro | Updater is really bugged | 22:49 |
| vigo | sedeki: It is n System-Preferences-CompizConfig Settings Manager | 22:49 |
| shadowtrk | penguin42: THANK U SOOO MUCH that worked | 22:49 |
| matthew1 | saji...I have a lot of customizations that i don't want to have to redo. A fresh install is my last option. | 22:49 |
| leagris | Hello, I just installed Drupal from the repos but it is outdated 6.10 and there are several published security updates up to 6.14. I think unfortunately, packaging has to bu very up to date for server applications. Too bad, I will have to rely on tgz manual installation from sources. I contest this policy of outdated vulnerable server applications. Check twice before relying on prepackaged. | 22:50 |
| Dist- | http://pastebin.com/m1ce3a223 | 22:50 |
| Dist- | thats what i get | 22:50 |
| Dist- | both when trying to remove flash, and install it | 22:50 |
| jken146 | matthew1: Have you tried upgrading with do-release-upgrade ? | 22:50 |
| ulrike | saihtam: fdisk -l even doesn't list floppy/cdrom devices | 22:51 |
| mathepic | Where is my grub menu.lst in Karmic? | 22:51 |
| matthew1 | what difference could that make, jken146...it downloads everything from the same place | 22:51 |
| mathepic | Its not in /boot/grub | 22:51 |
| jrib | leagris: usually maintainers will cherry pick only the security updates and upgrade packages. Have you checked if this is the case? | 22:51 |
| jken146 | leagris: file a bug report if there are security issues | 22:51 |
| Scunizi_ | leagris: drupal, joomla and others upgrade often.. it's best to get them direct | 22:51 |
| mathepic | do I create it? | 22:51 |
| ki4cgp | Hey, is there a definitive solution to the sluggish networking problems related to 9.10? A webpage with a solution perhaps? | 22:51 |
| dupondje | Dist-: why you try it to install on this way ? | 22:51 |
| dupondje | with a dpkg ? | 22:51 |
| Bodsda | Dist-: have you tried installing the package in the repo's? | 22:51 |
| dupondje | and a deb file ? | 22:51 |
| sebsebseb | Dist-: Gnash or Swfdec, if you want to try Adobe Flash alternative, and your only meant to have one of the three installed | 22:51 |
| Dist- | im a linux noob, i dont know how else to install | 22:52 |
| shadowtrk | why is apt-get update failing so much, due to everyone upgradeing? | 22:52 |
| Bodsda | Dist-: from the command line, type: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 22:52 |
| Scunizi_ | shadowtrk: that's part of it.. it will calm down in a week or so | 22:52 |
| jken146 | matthew1: What's the problem exactly? Looking at the scrollback, it seems you've tried it with update manager but with no success | 22:52 |
| saji | matthew1, well I would still suggest a fresh install, as most of your PPA which you would have added will be deactivated during Upgrade.. | 22:52 |
| dupondje | shadowtrk: what you mean by 'failing' ? | 22:52 |
| ayman | hi | 22:52 |
| slunk01 | Anyone having probss with update manager not connecting to repositories - and apt-get has same issue in root | 22:52 |
| Scunizi_ | shadowtrk: try with different repo's .. some get busier than others. | 22:52 |
| ayman | any body help me | 22:52 |
| dupondje | slunk01: try other mirror :) | 22:53 |
| vigo | What sebsebseb stated is rather important also. | 22:53 |
| saihtam | ulrike: fdisk only lists internal hdds | 22:53 |
| Dist- | Bodsda: E: The package adobe-flashplugin needs to be reinstalled, but i can't find an archive for it | 22:53 |
| shadowtrk | failed updates sits there for like 2rs | 22:53 |
| shadowtrk | lol | 22:53 |
| slunk01 | thanks dupo - but no go | 22:53 |
| shadowtrk | is there one file i can install from medibuntu to get all of the non free stuff? | 22:53 |
| matthew1 | jken146...it quits in the middle of downloading. and do-release-upgrade has been "checking for a new release" for 2 minutes now | 22:53 |
| leagris | jrib: jken146 when I go to the drupal admin pannel it list 6 security updates but it can not be installed with the prepackaged version. | 22:53 |
| saihtam | ulrike: reformat the hdd and check if u can access it | 22:53 |
| jrib | leagris: file a bug | 22:53 |
| ayman | help | 22:53 |
| sebsebseb | vigo: Probably should have highlighted Dist- with that really, so they don't miss it | 22:53 |
| Dys7opia | yo what does it mean if files green in console | 22:53 |
| slunk01 | none of thee repositories work - include the old jaunty jackalope | 22:53 |
| Bodsda | Dist-: you may need to remove it first with dpkg | 22:54 |
| p1und3r | does anyone know what after `sudo apt-get install expect` i can't use "spawn" in my shell script? | 22:54 |
| ayman | help here | 22:54 |
| dupondje | Dist-: sudo dpkg -r --force-all adobe-flashplugin | 22:54 |
| p1und3r | why after* | 22:54 |
| ulrike | saihtam: hum? i dont want to format the hdd, there are some data i need to access | 22:54 |
| jken146 | matthew1: I see. You can upgrade to karmic with an *alternate* CD (not the live one), i.e. without doing a clean install. | 22:54 |
| sebsebseb | !helpme | ayman | 22:54 |
| ubottu | ayman: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 22:54 |
| vigo | sebsebseb: Is a learning curve, and that is what Backups are for. | 22:54 |
| p1und3r | !expect | 22:54 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about expect | 22:54 |
| Dist- | dupondje didnt work | 22:55 |
| matthew1 | jken146, after do-release-upgrade, the update manager popped up. I clicked get upgrade...and the window dimmed. | 22:55 |
| Dys7opia | easy question; green files in console, whats the status | 22:55 |
| dupondje | Dist-: 'didn't work?' | 22:55 |
| sebsebseb | !work | Dist- | 22:55 |
| ubottu | Dist-: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 22:55 |
| shadowtrk | IS there one package in the medibuntu repo that will download all of the non-free stuff? | 22:55 |
| jken146 | matthew1: do-release-upgrade should not make the update manager pop up. It's a command line tool. | 22:55 |
| jken146 | shadowtrk: No. | 22:55 |
| Kazorin | I'm having an issue updating the distribution to 9.10. It says that it can't find ubuntu-minimal after updating my package information. | 22:55 |

I have installed ex novo, but previously I had an upgraded ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 and I know that the whole thing works with kernel 2.6.28-16. How can I install it?

| paolo | so, sorry if I am asking again... is it possible to install 2.6.28-16 kernel in karmic? | 22:58 |
| Dist- | If i cant install, and i cant remove, am i screwed? | 22:58 |
| Hillshum | paolo: You would have to compile it yourself at least... | 22:59 |
| trism | paolo: possible, but doesn't sound like a great idea | 22:59 |
| === marcelcohrs is now known as marcel | ||
| trism | paolo: should probably stick with 9.04 if you want to use that kernel | 22:59 |

| iholst | Hi, I need help with compiz | 22:59 |

| paolo | trism: when I upgraded from 9.04 I had both kernels, to me it is strange that the 2.6.28-16 kernel is not included in the repos | 23:00 |
| Kazorin | Can someone help me do a dist-update to 9.10? I'm getting ubuntu-minimal errors. | 23:00 |
| dupondje | Dist-: http://blog.ixti.ru/archives/6 | 23:00 |
| paolo | n2diy: there is not | 23:00 |
| dupondje | try that | 23:00 |
| trakcyia | There are hyperlinks in my PDF, but when I click on them nothing happens. | 23:00 |
| jken146 | paolo: It's not strange that an older kernel is not included in a new release. | 23:00 |
| n2diy | paolo: apt-get? | 23:01 |
| trism | paolo: apt doesn't remove old kernels unless you specifically tell it to | 23:01 |
| Dist- | dupondje ok ill give it a try, will let you know in a few min if it works | 23:01 |
| hugleo | hi | 23:01 |

| paolo | jken146: isn't it strange that in a new release only a single kernel is provided to users? if one has a problem with it, one cannot use ubuntu | 23:01 |
| shadowtrk | DIST u can add the medibuntu repo | 23:02 |
| iholst | Im not sure | 23:02 |

| hugleo | do you anybody help? | 23:03 |
| Jangari | i'm completely unable to use apt-get | 23:03 |
| _dean | any reason for this | 23:03 |
| dupondje | hugleo: prolly a crap coded or prehistoric lexmark driver ? | 23:03 |
| p1und3r | anyone else that installed expect have troubles using spawn in scripts? | 23:03 |

| kaeser | ? | 23:03 |
| shadowtrk | DIST: have u tryed looking in /var/cache/apt/archives and if there delete are reinstall | 23:03 |
| jken146 | kaeser: no | 23:03 |
| XX01XX | Clarify: Of the "alternate", "desktop", and "server" varieties, "alternate" is essentially an upgrade? | 23:03 |
| paolo | however, if I cannot downgrade the kernel is there another way to circumvent the xorg freezings due to xorg-video-intel bugs? | 23:03 |
| kaeser | ? | 23:04 |
| jken146 | XX01XX: no, but the alternate CD does give you that option. | 23:04 |
| kaeser | oops | 23:04 |
| chemjeff | XX01XX: No, "alternate" is a manual installation | 23:04 |
| kaeser | thanks jken146 | 23:04 |
| Dist- | dupondje thankyou! | 23:04 |
| hugleo | dupondje, I'm using ubuntu jaunty following the link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7713382#post7713382 | 23:04 |

| Dist- | and the force-all removal worked | 23:04 |
| dupondje | Dist-: good :) | 23:04 |

| Dist- | thanks | 23:05 |
| soreau | _dean: Sounds like compiz may be crashing which could be caused by a number of things. The prime culprit is typically the graphics driver | 23:05 |
| Dist- | should i install everything using aptitude? | 23:05 |
| Dist- | i mean, is there any reason to ever use a .deb? | 23:05 |
| Kazorin | Is anyone else having problems upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10 distributions? | 23:05 |
| _dean | soreau: maybe install the unstable ppa compiz repository maybe | 23:05 |
| _dean | that might help? | 23:05 |
| shadowtrk | Kazorin what issues | 23:05 |
| lstarnes | Dist-: some packages are not in the repos but they are available as a separate .deb | 23:05 |
| dupondje | Dist-: when the package is not availible in ANY repository, then you might use a .deb :p | 23:05 |
| jken146 | Dist-: only get packages yourself if you can't find them in the repositories. | 23:05 |
| dupondje | :P | 23:06 |
| dupondje | clear ? ;) | 23:06 |
| Dist- | thanks | 23:06 |
| Kazorin | shadowtrk: Same issue that's been reported on the internet in the past, it works for some and not for others. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/463549 | 23:06 |
| Plugh | Dist-: You may still need to use a .deb to install something if it isn't found in one of the repos you have configured | 23:06 |
| Dist- | i wonder how flash even got screwed up in the first place in the 9.10 patch | 23:06 |
| chemjeff | Dist: you might use a .deb if you wanted to install a package with a version newer than the repository's stable version | 23:06 |
| hugleo | dupondje, nedd i install any package? | 23:06 |
| Slapfish | anyone uses deluge? | 23:06 |
| dupondje | chemjeff: even then you should first try to use a ppa imo :) | 23:07 |
| Ioneye | Slapfish, yes. | 23:07 |
| ian_ | hello guys | 23:07 |
| Plugh | ppa? | 23:07 |
| paolo | ok, I am really really sorry to ask again and again. Xorg crashes because of my intel video card (whoa should be fully supported, I mean, it's intel). therefore I cannot access graphically to my computer. Is there any kind of workaround for this? | 23:07 |

| jken146 | chaos2fu: type 'sudo fdisk -l' and see if your stick is listed. | 23:08 |

| Yaya | I get error saying the biosinfo.ing if missing when i try to install windows xp | 23:09 |
| chaos2fu | n2diy it aint there in media.. | 23:10 |
| kde185 | I can't seem to boot into my CentOS partition now that I have grub2 installed. I get errors like "no such partition" or "invalid signature" when trying to chainload. Can someone help me in configuring grub2(or provide a link to something helpful, I've tried googling to no avail)? | 23:10 |

| kismet | hey, anyone knows how to change gpu setting ins ubuntu | 23:10 |
| philluminati | Daedalus-Sax "init 3"? | 23:10 |
| chaos2fu | jken146 how do u mean?? | 23:10 |
| dupondje | kismet: all depends on your gpu ... | 23:10 |
| lstarnes | philluminati: that won't do it | 23:10 |
| shadowtrk | acke: not sure ask here again | 23:10 |
| MajorPayne | Is it possible to change the keyboard layout for gdm but not for the users? Ubuntu 9.04. | 23:10 |
| acke | shadowtrk: during installing updates | 23:10 |
| socks4anon | yaya: uninstall the built in OSE version by snaptic and install the non OSE version. | 23:10 |
| nsahoo | dupondje: thanks | 23:10 |
| Jangari | jken146: apt-get update is what wasn't working. I just changed the server and now it's working fine. It seems that the Australian server is cactus | 23:10 |
| philluminati | service gdm/xdm/kdm stop? | 23:10 |
| Plugh | ian_: You could also just install the driver provided at the nvidia web site. I had to do that as the one available to Karmic didn't work. | 23:10 |
| Daedalus-Sax | philluminati: after ctrl alt f1? | 23:10 |
| chemjeff | Is there a way to install sensors-applet without first installing lm-sensors? | 23:10 |
| Jangari | thanks dupondje | 23:10 |
| chemjeff | I installed lm-sensors manually. | 23:10 |
| jken146 | chaos2fu: there's a list of servers that you can use. You said that the main US one was timing out. Try a different server. | 23:10 |
| === joseph_ is now known as spasticteapot | ||
| n2diy | chaos2fu: uhmm, try a different usb port? | 23:10 |
| lstarnes | Daedalus-Sax: try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 23:11 |
| acke | My update to 9.10 is stuck, can i terminate it and resume the update somehow?? | 23:11 |
| p1und3r | can anyone help me out with a shell scriptin problem | 23:11 |
| shadowtrk | acke: installing or downloading? | 23:11 |
| kismet | dupondje: i am working with an ati gpu on a laptop | 23:11 |
| acke | shadowtrk: installing | 23:11 |
| jken146 | chemjeff: probably not | 23:11 |
| philluminati | p1und3r. what's the question? | 23:11 |
| shadowtrk | acke: i have no idea | 23:11 |
| Yaya | socks4anon: can you guide me thru the process for that? | 23:11 |
| Jordan_U_ | acke: Chedk the dropdown | 23:11 |
| Daedalus-Sax | ok i'm getting it, so i should use init 3 first, then use gdm stop? | 23:11 |
| chaos2fu | jken146 i think u confused me with someoneelse... im haven't talked about any servers...;-) | 23:11 |
| jken146 | acke: how far have you got? | 23:11 |
| dupondje | kismet: depends on your driver etc .. don't know exactly for ATI | 23:11 |
| kismet | dupondje: i would like to reduce power consumption and heat by reducing my gpu if i do not need it | 23:11 |
| Jangari | kismet? do I know you? possibly when I was Hoss? | 23:11 |
| ian_ | Plugh, thanks i will try that. | 23:11 |
| jken146 | chaos2fu: Sorry! | 23:11 |
| Yaya | socks4anon: can you guide me in how to do that? | 23:11 |
| Jordan_U_ | acke: There may be a prompt in the terminal | 23:11 |
| Daedalus-Sax | philluminati: and do i use ctrl alt f1 or f4 | 23:11 |
| johni | chemjeff, why did you need to install lm-sensors manually ? | 23:11 |
| p1und3r | philluminati: im trying to use expect to make an autologin ssh script, but when i try to use spawn it doesn't recognize the command | 23:11 |
| acke | jken146: it has finished dl and is installing the updates | 23:12 |
| ian_ | Scunizi_, tried that already but no driver found | 23:12 |
| kismet | Jangari: could be :D | 23:12 |
| chemjeff | jken146: Then is there a way to turn a manual installation of lm-sensors into a Debian package so that Ubuntu thinks it is installed and will then let me proceed to install sensors-applet? | 23:12 |
| corden | does any experiencing "out of range" error after booting wubi? | 23:12 |
| Daedalus-Sax | ok brb | 23:12 |
| philluminati | yeah | 23:12 |
| corden | what seems the work out of this? | 23:12 |
| Plugh | ian_: I have an older video card. the 185 drivers in Karmic failed. I'm using 190.42 from the nvidia web site and they worked just fine. | 23:12 |
| chaos2fu | jken146 now i see, its hidden it says in the terminal...? | 23:12 |
| acke | Jordan_U_: chedk the dropdown, how do you mean? | 23:12 |
| chemjeff | johni: Because the Ubuntu lm-sensors package in the 9.10 repository didn't support my hardware | 23:12 |
| Jordan_U_ | p1und3r: Why not use ssh keys? expect is almost always the wrong tool for the job | 23:12 |
| socks4anon | http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/3.0.10/virtualbox-3.0_3.0.10-54097_Ubuntu_jaunty_i386.deb | 23:12 |
| socks4anon | if your runing jaunty | 23:12 |
| chaos2fu | how do i "unhide" it..it was a bootable disk aahh i remember now, i tried moblin...:-( | 23:12 |
| corden | i dont have yet xorg.conf on my etc/X11/ | 23:13 |
| dupondje | socks4anon: for god sake, USE THE REPO's | 23:13 |
| socks4anon | sudo apt-get remove virtualbox before you install that one of course | 23:13 |
| SporkWitch | so apparently disabling acpi got me over the issue i was having with my laptops keyboard and touchpad not working once the GUI finished loading | 23:13 |
| dupondje | and not .deb downloads :( | 23:13 |
| p1und3r | philluminati: i dunno how complicated is ssh keys i saw it up but i just thought an expect script wud be quicker | 23:13 |
| Jordan_U_ | acke: In the upgrade window there is a triangle ( If I remember correctly ) if you click it it will show a terminal | 23:13 |
| philluminati | p2und3r. Normally we use ssh keys | 23:13 |
| johni | chemjeff, makes sense :) | 23:13 |
| vladimir_ | Hillshum, thanks, it worked. I enabled it, how do I turn it ? I'm not sure of what the hotkeys are to turn my cube | 23:13 |
| corden | this is keeping me continue installing ubuntu under wubi | 23:13 |
| socks4anon | dupondje: it doesnt matter | 23:13 |
| philluminati | No, keys would be easier, quicker and more secure | 23:13 |
| stsm | can i use xen on ubuntu 9.10? | 23:13 |
| Xgates | if a pkg(s) might be broke what's the dpkg cmd to fix? I forgot.... | 23:13 |
| kismet | dupondje: so but it is generally possible | 23:13 |
| Jordan_U_ | p1und3r: No, it will take longer, be less reliable, and be incredibly insecure | 23:13 |
| shadowtrk | acke: it might be asking u a question | 23:13 |
| IndyGunFreak | corden: why is it keeping you from installing w/ wubi?.. and yes, 9.10 doesn't use xorg.conf anymore | 23:13 |
| SporkWitch | now i just need to figure out how to make it see my internal wifi, sound, and webcam | 23:13 |
| acke | Jordan_U_: yes, it says do you want to update hostes for no-ip (y/N) and I said y and pressed enter | 23:13 |
| shadowtrk | acke: there u go | 23:14 |
| dupondje | kismet: its all driver dependent .. My Nvidia does it :) | 23:14 |
| acke | Jordan_U_: and now its stuck | 23:14 |
| Hillshum | Vladimir_: System>>Preferences>> Advanced Desktop Effects | 23:14 |
| socks4anon | besides i thought OSE is what was in the repos | 23:14 |
| curtmack | I just updated to Karmic, and GNOME no longer starts up with the system. I just get presented with a login prompt on tty1 | 23:14 |
| Jordan_U_ | acke: Wait for a while | 23:14 |
| corden | so what's the video config of 9.10? @ IndyGunFreak | 23:14 |
| kismet | dupondje: how can i check/look it up | 23:14 |
| Daedalus-Sax | philluminati: i did ctrl alt f1, then init 3 then gdm stop, because the init.d script gave me an error, and then it went right back to gnome, like i just started it up | 23:14 |
| corden | that's why i havent seen that file :) | 23:14 |
| Yaya | socks4anon: Thats the one i have installed | 23:14 |
| acke | shadowtrk: and now its stuck.. nothing happends.. | 23:14 |
| dupondje | kismet: find out what driver you are using, and then google or so :) | 23:14 |
| corden | maybe if you point out what file to edit and im ready to go | 23:14 |
| Degle | ываъ | 23:14 |
| Jordan_U_ | corden: It's automatic, you can still make an Xorg.conf if you want to override the defaults | 23:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | corden: i used a xorg.conf backup from my 9.04, adn just plugged it in in /etc/X11/.. and it worked fine... but i think there's a way to create a xorg.conf under 9.10, but i don't know how.. plus, w/ wubi.. who knows. | 23:15 |
| vladimir_ | Hillshum, dont see this path | 23:15 |
| Yaya | socks4anon:the one from virtualbox.org | 23:15 |

| kismet | dupondje: and what words should i google ... sorry a kind of new with all that stuff | 23:16 |
| Hillshum | Vladimir_: System → Preferences → CompizConfig Settings Manager. | 23:16 |

| vladimir_ | Hillshum, yup, i'm there . I checked desktop cube , not sure whats next :) | 23:16 |
| shadowtrk | acke: any activity on hdd net etc...? | 23:16 |
| sebsebseb | !final | janisozaur | 23:16 |
| ubottu | janisozaur: 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. | 23:16 |
| philluminati | Daedalus. you need to run /etc/init.d/gdm stop as root | 23:17 |
| sebsebseb | janisozaur: assuming all the updates went properly, which should be the case if you started with the RC | 23:17 |
| Hillshum | Vladimir_: Also enable Rotate Cube, then check the bindings tab on both | 23:17 |
| Daedalus-Sax | um, every time i use gdm stop, it starts, as if i just started the pc... it goes back to gnome | 23:17 |
| socks4anon | Zykotick9: What's the difference of installing the deb package though? | 23:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | Daedalus-Sax, are you using "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" - cause that should stop gdm | 23:18 |

| docmax | you cant disable gdm start in karmic!!! | 23:18 |
| sebsebseb | janisozaur: went properly I meant installed | 23:18 |
| Daedalus-Sax | philluminati: i can't. it absolutely refuses to allow me to use that. it says something about it being set up under services and upstart | 23:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | socks4anon, using the repo means you get updates | 23:18 |
| carpediem | Daedalus-Sax: do you mean "stop gdm" because "gdm stop" is not right | 23:18 |
| lstarnes | SJr: you shouldn't | 23:18 |
| stsm | can i use xen on ubuntu 9.10? | 23:18 |
| acke | shadowtrk: no, no other activity | 23:18 |

| lstarnes | Daedalus-Sax: try sudo service gdm stop | 23:18 |

| stsm | phillies_fan, of course you can lol | 23:18 |
| Daedalus-Sax | stop gdm does nothing at all, gdm stop atleast does something, it starts gdm..?? | 23:18 |
| jordy240 | is us.archive.ubuntu.com not working or is that just me? | 23:18 |
| philluminati | service won't work I don't think | 23:19 |
| carpediem | Daedalus-Sax: if you are on Jaunty, then you need /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 23:19 |
| Yaya | socks4anon: i downloaded the lastest .deb from virtualbox.org for 3.0.10 | 23:19 |
| vladimir_ | Hillshum, yup, rotating now. How do i set it to 4 cubes ? | 23:19 |
| trism | Daedalus-Sax: in 9.10, you do sudo stop gdm, because it uses upstart now | 23:19 |

| Daedalus-Sax | i am on 9.10 | 23:19 |

| stsm | philluminati, of course you can | 23:19 |
| stsm | phillies_fan, sorry wrong highlight | 23:19 |
| trism | Daedalus-Sax: likewise sudo start gdm to start it back up again, they are just shortcuts to initctl start and initctl stop | 23:19 |
| Daedalus-Sax | ok ill try that, do i do the stop gdm thing ater init 3? | 23:19 |
| Hillshum | Vladimir_: Right click the desktop switcher in the bottom right and set it to 4 | 23:19 |
| socks4anon | yaya: maybe try adding deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian jaunty non-free to your /etc/apt/sources.list | 23:19 |

| kismet | in my xorg.conf file there it is named that my device "Configured Video Device" shouldn't it be something like ati | 23:20 |

| Daedalus-Sax | brb | 23:20 |

| ZykoticK9 | MajorPayne, that suggests it would be only xorg (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) that would be controlling the keyboard at that point then. But I'd guess changing the keyboard layout in xorg may override gnome as well - you'll have to test. best of luck. | 23:27 |

However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.
