[00:00] stapel, the bug has an assignee (someone to work on it) so it will be fixed --karmic is only two days old or so [00:00] i'm trying to make sure it's installed properly [00:00] alright thanks bazhang .. I'm kind of confused about it b/c it seems like everything else is working fine w/ nvidia.. worried I may have done something to my monitor.. I was using it on my mythtvbox earlier this week :-x [00:01] I need to contact with you with the urgent case. [00:01] plz how to dend files in empathy and enable av chat i use msn [00:01] Can you give me? [00:01] U-b-u-n-t-u, you might want to check out ldxe also, http://wiki.lxde.org/en/Ubuntu [00:01] is there a to fix it [00:01] popkorn: a wild notion: you've killed all pulseaudio daemons and/or rebooted? [00:01] SAMBA SUCKS [00:02] karmic is good or not ,now? [00:02] i get the white ubuntu logo before it wont goto logon page [00:02] no one wants to help [00:02] hi. I'm trying to completely remove pulseaudio from my system. uninstalled all packages that had "pulse" in them, but mplayer and other apps still attempt to use it for some reason, and it doesn't go away from the sound devices list. can anyone advise? [00:02] (karmic) [00:02] erik14213usa: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/busybox/+bug/290153 [00:02] hey, anyone tried triple boot with wubi? [00:03] logon page like as windows but it can't use the ie? [00:03] anyone tried tripleboot with wubi on a macbook? [00:03] using apt-get, how do you force a complete reinstall of a particular package? [00:03] nfrs: hi, I haven't tried Karmic yet, nor do I have a solution for your problem, but I am curious, what's wrong with pulseaudio? [00:03] to work about the banking activity? [00:03] ash-2plus1: apt-get install --reinstall ...i think [00:03] acke: wubi + Windows Installer for Ubuntu === acke_ is now known as grymme [00:03] trampel: thank you [00:03] is there a usb-creator for windows? [00:04] ash-2plus1: sorry about that, that was ascheel [00:04] can someone please to what i need to [00:04] MikeChelen: Thanks, I was wondering, JOONE, comes as a .jar file, can't i just copy the file into /usr/share/java? [00:04] larsemil: unetbootin [00:04] larsemil, something called unetbootin (only works on windows for linux) [00:04] ascheel: How do you mean? did you install it next to os x? === Paraselene__ is now known as Paraselene_ [00:04] i guess i have to try commandline [00:04] nwillems: idk, maybe? give it a try :D [00:04] bazhang: for some reason i dont get it to work [00:04] or what [00:04] If I mark to remove pulseaudio Synaptic marks to remove ubuntu-desktop! [00:04] acke: wubi = *WINDOWS* installer for Ubuntu [00:04] Crosswing: two words: no sound [00:04] someone can use the ie to do the activity of banking? [00:04] any one familiar with twinview on nvidia hardware? [00:04] twal321: its just a metapackage, its fine [00:04] acke: windows != mac OS X [00:04] larsemil, with ubuntu iso? [00:05] Timmymayes: i've got dual screens on my desktop.. [00:05] bazhang: yep. it does not boot after its done [00:05] hello all; I've gotten a USB wireless nic configured in ndiswrapper; the device is present, the driver's installed, but there's no listing for it in ifconfig; any idea what I'm missing? [00:05] do i goin under recovery mode [00:05] IndyGunFreak, i'm using dual monitors too the question tho is how do i setup a hotkey to move a window from one monitor to the other? I don't want to change virtual desktops [00:05] larsemil, I had the same issue, got it going after a couple of tries [00:05] nfrs: ack, sorry to hear that. [00:05] ascheel: yes I know. my question was, have you installed ubuntu (from the windows installer) on a macbooc where you are running windows and osx? [00:06] Timmymayes: i use twinview, so i just drag/drop it... i'm assuming you're running separate x screens [00:06] acke: windows running in Parallels is a normal Windows installation and as such will work just fine assuming you're running a distro that's built on an x86 architechture [00:06] JessD-> does it show in dmesg or sudo lshw -C network ? [00:06] bazhang: ok will try again then. and with some different memories [00:06] i use twinview [00:06] broadcom atheros card [00:06] but i don't want to have to drag and drop [00:06] i'm very keyboard centric [00:06] can someone check if my apache works by clicking this ? http://96.246.33.167/ [00:07] broadcom atheros card [00:07] ubuntu 8.10 [00:07] bazhang, sorry to bother you but I figure you may the one to have a good judgement call on this.. do you think I should try to try an older driver or maybe a new beta? [00:07] for exmaple in windows with ultramon i used alt+ctrl + left & right and it popped between monitors [00:07] for exmaple in windows with ultramon i used alt+ctrl + left & right and it popped between monitors [00:07] I have a quick question about upgrading from Jaunty to Karmic. Will upgrading via the update manager delete my configs and files? Will I still have the same themes? Will all my music, vids and pics be deleted? [00:07] oops [00:07] Nope [00:07] Jester05, which card [00:07] balzac: that makes no sense, a broadcom atheros card? [00:07] n8tuser : Nope [00:07] http://keyserver.ubuntu.com is not avaliable, what can I do? [00:07] i thought they were the same [00:07] nvidia 9800GTX+ Black Edition [00:07] can someone PLEASE help with samba [00:07] balzac: you're using the ath9k module and no luck? [00:08] it's me daedalus-sax. thought that was too long a name to type. [00:08] Broadcom and Atheros are 2 different wireless chipset manufacturers [00:08] bazhang, Nvidia 9800GTX+ Black Edition [00:08] nevermind that, a broadcom BCM4311 [00:08] JessD-> can you paste in pastebin the results of those commands? [00:08] I have a quick question about upgrading from Jaunty to Karmic. Will upgrading via the update manager delete my configs and files? Will I still have the same themes? Will all my music, vids and pics be deleted? [00:08] eremite: You're themes might change, depending on where they are stored. Your music etc will stay [00:08] trampel: any new driver I'll have to transfer with a USB stick [00:08] balzac: what version of ubuntu are you using? [00:08] Jester05, I would go with whatever hardware drivers recommends [00:08] an update broke my wireless [00:08] how do I get fwd/back buttons working in firefox 3.5.5pre under Karmic ? (using the mouse) [00:08] how do i set my ip to static ? [00:08] 8.10 [00:08] Hillshum: awesome. Thanks. [00:08] eremite: it removes the human theme, but your current theme will work fine. [00:09] Vladimir-> use ip or ifconfig commands [00:09] balzac: did you just install it?... if so, why 8.10? [00:09] bazhang, I tried that but its giving me this, not detecting the second monitor crap [00:09] hi can someone please give any ideas [00:09] IndyGunFreak: it's the same version that broke my wireless [00:09] I also have an intel card [00:09] ascheel: I dont understand. :) after going through the hazel of installing windows next to os x with bootcamp, Im feeling a bit insecure about how rEFIt lilo and bootcamp will react to this dualboot on the windows side. .) [00:09] anyone muck about with this on one of the newer model toshiba satellites? disabling ACPI resolved the issue i was having earlier where it wouldn't accept the laptop's keyboard or touchpad input, now i'm trying to get it to find the integrated wifi (no hardware switch for it, just a FN+Fkey combo) [00:09] fyi, the reason why gdm wouldn't stop is, i was using ctrl-alt f1 instead of f4, and i didn't init 3 before using service gdm stop, (service stop gdm doesn't work) [00:09] and a pcmcia card [00:09] Jester05, ah sorry missed you were using two monitors [00:09] Does upgrading releases mess with a dual boot system (Win XP)? [00:09] hello [00:09] thanx for all the help guys! (and gals) [00:10] i dont ubuntu 9.10 is ready [00:10] i've found the driver situation so arcane, i haven't been able to install any of them in a reasonable amount of time [00:10] gdm was messed up I had someone purge it then trying to reinstall and it's not going back in with install or reinstall ----> http://pastebin.com/d366d52ee [00:10] Soneone use the karmic? [00:10] eremite, via the net? the alternate cd? shouldn't no [00:10] SporkWitch-> perhaps in the bios? also check the results of dmesg and sudo lshw -C network [00:10] when i click to configure my card its also only giving me one option for what to do w/ them where it usually said sep. X, clone, twinview.... its only saying sep. x the others are grayed out. This may be due to it not realizing I have another monitor but I'm not sure [00:10] after i installed i rebooted an cant get to the damn logon screen [00:10] n8: shouldn't be the BIOS, it's working fine in win7 [00:10] Does anyone know if they have fixed the INTEL problem that was present with Jaunty in Karmic? [00:10] bazhang, read above plz :) [00:10] Jester05, what about xrandr [00:10] no changes have been made ot BIOS [00:10] eremite: only with ubuntu, it wouldn't even tough windows unless somehting happened to the boot manager dring update [00:11] xrandr? [00:11] eremite: which one? [00:11] thanks all --- twal321 <--- rebooting [00:11] Jester05: i have that card and installed the driver from nvidia 190.42 (has overscan slider for tv). it works great [00:11] i guess i'll just string a wire into this room. drilling holes is easier. [00:11] anyone have anyideas [00:11] n8tuser : http://pastebin.com/m23066d57 [00:11] !xrandr | Jester05 [00:11] then I'll be able to use a wire to get my wireless driver [00:11] XGas-> see if tasksel will redownload it for you [00:11] ctmjr, thank you [00:11] balzac: you can get wireless working, why don't you download the current version of ubuntu(9.10) and start there [00:11] ah the bot quit [00:11] does anyone notice that when they run karmic the canonical symbol looks skewed? (similar to 4:3 -> 16:10 skewing effect) === john is now known as Guest53866 [00:11] ubottu is having issues [00:11] bazhang, I think ctmjr may have cleared it up for me [00:11] thank you tho bazhang [00:11] Jester05, okay nice [00:12] IndyGunFreak: I'll plug it into a wire and then upgrade [00:12] balzac: i can't speak for 9.10, but you can use the 9.10 live CD to installt he driver. [00:12] ctmjr, where you having the same issue i spoke of? [00:12] does anyone have ideas [00:12] balzac: lol, i wouldnt upgrade, bu thats just me [00:12] i didn't really pay that much attention until i tried karmic on my laptop. it didn't appear skewed on my laptop. [00:12] because it'll probably break again after i upgrade [00:12] on how to fix the video problem [00:12] eremite, on my eee 701 with intel graphics karmic graphics work MUCH better! [00:12] using recovery mode [00:12] IndyGunFreak: maybe you're right. I can install fresh. [00:12] I am here :) [00:12] back up my files and start fresh like windoze [00:12] IndyGunFreak: not neccesarily, just downloaded 9.10 today, and it can't find my internal wireless NIC; yes it's on (works in win7 and indicator is still lit when running from the ubuntu livecd) [00:13] JessD-> you seemed to have an ip assigned look at line 16 [00:13] balzac: i'd recommend clean installing 9.10, because otherwise, you're gonna sit for a while, while upgrading 8.10 to 9.04, then 9.04 to 9.10.. lot of potential for something to go wrong [00:13] erik_71usa: do you get to the terminal with crtl+alt+F1? [00:13] thanx all. bye for now === jay is now known as Guest41561 [00:13] IndyGunFreak: thanks [00:13] SporkWitch: what wireless device is it? [00:13] i think that's the best idea. [00:13] balzac: good luck, thats what i would do. [00:13] IndyGunFreak: sec, i'll try to pull it up online [00:13] i'll download 9.10 [00:13] n8user : Check line 1 : That's the broadcom [00:13] Why does gdm have a loading bar now? [00:13] IndyGunFreak: laptop is a toshiba satellite l505d-s5994 [00:13] n8user : It's a Linksys that isn;t working [00:13] It seems slower...has it always been this way or did something change? [00:13] JessD-> you have a broadcom or atheros chips? [00:13] well that tells me nothing, need to know the chipset on the wireless device [00:14] ubuntu is free not pay about the subscritption or not ? [00:14] whats the command to reset X server? [00:14] joosengee: yes, completely free [00:14] !who | JessD [00:14] n8user : WUSB54GSC v 2 [00:14] so... i can't resume from hibernate [00:14] how do i make my ntfs partition mount at boot? i have 9.10. [00:14] I can't reinstall gdm got errors ---> http://pastebin.com/d366d52ee [00:14] long time not like red hat? [00:14] JessD-> type my nick correctly or i will miss your responses [00:14] what's the keyboard shortcut to reset X server that replace Ctrl Alt Backspace [00:14] in the past i've fixed this by setting the resume device explicitly in menu.lst, but it's annoying to do that every time a new kernel version comes out [00:14] how do you reinstall a pkg when either apt or dpkg seems to get borked [00:14] n8tuser : Sorry 'bout that [00:14] Ratapoil: alt+printscreen+k [00:15] JessD-> you have a broadcom or atheros chips? [00:15] anyone here good with conky? [00:15] Ratapoil: sysrq rather, but it's the same [00:15] IndyGunFreak ubuntu is free long time not like Red Hat? [00:15] IndyGunFreak: manual doesn't list exact model number, but it's just a realtek 802.11b/g/n [00:15] sees the wired and connects on that fine [00:15] joosengee: its free forever [00:15] awisgod: just ask, we'll see [00:16] so im not sure what to do [00:16] to fix it [00:16] kk, I am having some troubles getting conky to read the config i want it to use [00:16] n8tuser : both; atheros wired nic, broadcom wireless [00:16] awisgod: conky -c /path/to/config [00:16] hi, empathy doesnt show me the my accounts anymore and msn is not in the list of possible protocolls. is there a way i can get empathy set to its initial state again? [00:16] JessD: the wired is irrelevant, if you're tryign to fix wireless [00:16] do i have to change my fstab to mount a ntfs on boot, or is there a nicer, more gui way of saying i want full time access to this hard drive? [00:16] I don't know the cost about the server of ubuntu, it must use the money. How 's about he do? [00:16] JessD-> which one would you like to use? only use one at a time if connected to same subnet [00:16] Jester05: for some reason i had a lot of problems with the 180 and 185 driver the new one fixed it [00:17] JessD: 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 :) [00:17] joosengee: you cannot charge money for a linux operating system. period. The only thing you can do is charge for customer service, or possibly proprietary programs you bundle with it [00:17] but a linux operating system itself cannot be charged for [00:17] i guess no one knows [00:17] I've got a problem with my Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade, when it boots after the installation it brings a black screen, I cannot change to console mode, 'cause it does nothing when I press ctrl+alt+f1...f6, also there's no sound and the hd stops spinning, can someone help me please?? === adnc is now known as abdc [00:17] hylian: a gui will also edit fstab, so if you know what to edit do it by commandline [00:17] i dont so im sol [00:17] netsdaniel: u and 2-300 other people.. :) [00:18] n8tuser : Here's the deal; I have a smaller PC under my TV that I'm trying to get working, and I can't reach it with a wire to test and google at the same time, so I'm trying to see if I can get a method established to confgure this nic on the tv from here [00:18] wheres the log to read what would make server make an internal speaker beep, and have networking apparently fail for 5 minutes or so, gmpc and ssh failed to connect. during this time, now its back up like normal. i see nothing in /var/log/messages or dmesg. [00:18] vcoolio: what i meant is, is there a place in the menu system i haven't seen that does this same thing. [00:18] where are the postrm and the postinst scripts for gdm? [00:19] I just installed Nagios...how do I get to the interface? [00:19] hi guys how do i run a program through ssh and keep it running after i close the terminal? [00:19] kruykaze: screen [00:19] so does anyone know anything about this hibernation issue? it started happening after i resized the swap partition [00:19] JessD: which broadcom device are you trying tog et working? [00:19] zroysch, screen and then command? [00:19] ok bye all [00:19] IndyGunFreak : The broadcom works, it's a linksys WUSB54GSC v 2 that doesn't work [00:20] kruykaze: install screen on the server, read man. [00:20] oh ok. [00:20] anyone have any idea of what driver to install for Radeon X1950 video card ? I need the tv out option accessable :) [00:20] zroysch, thank you [00:20] kruykaze: basically: to start the programX you do screen programX === sharperguy2 is now known as sharperguy [00:21] kruykaze: CTRL+A, CTRL+D to detach [00:21] screen -r to resume [00:21] JessD-> okay the wireless right? [00:21] or screen -d -r if it somehow got donged, -d detaches [00:21] JessD-> okay the wireless works right? [00:21] zroysch, sweet thx [00:21] n8tuser : I have two wireless nics; the atheros works, the linksys does not [00:21] n8tuser : I'm trying to get the linksys working [00:22] where those sound patches supposed to fix the no sound problem... didn't seem to. [00:22] How do I find out the MAC address of this machine? [00:22] I have this in a script that I run through a cron job: echo "Hourly Scan Successful: $(date)" >> $HOME/Desktop/scanning.log The problem is that the script seem to be working BUT the echo command won't write a log message to the log file. Why? [00:22] IndyGunFreak: any suggestions for forcing this thing to see the realtek wireless NIC? [00:22] Mefached: ifconfig -a [00:22] anyone have any idea of what driver to install for Radeon X1950 video card ? I need the tv out option accessable :) [00:22] kruykaze: if you only want to be able to close the terminal, just put a '&' behind the command to put it in background [00:22] SporkWitch: not a clue.. i guess the question becomes, why [00:22] JessD-> it only detected one not both.. see your results you pasted [00:22] Then how do I spoof the MAC on another machine, also running Ubuntu? [00:22] kruykaze : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2nZdChQvAs [00:22] wheres the log to read what would make server make an internal speaker beep, and have networking apparently fail for 5 minutes or so, gmpc and ssh failed to connect. during this time, now its back up like normal. i see nothing in /var/log/messages or dmesg. [00:23] beautiful thx guys [00:23] I have the scanning.log file and it has the user have permissions to rw. The user also have the cron job. BUT no log message will be written. [00:23] n8tuser : I know that. I followed the steps outlined here : http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-wireless-networking-41/linksys-wusb54gsc-on-ubuntu-8.04.1-solved-664463/ [00:23] JessD-> your driver for your atheros may not have been loaded yet [00:23] In ifconfig -a, when it says HWaddr, that is the MAC, yes? [00:23] IndyGunFreak: why it won't detect it, you mean? [00:23] hi everyone. I have ssh access to a computer running the Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop live cd. How do I remotely install ubuntu to that computer over ssh? pass the -X option to ssh and run ubiquity? [00:23] n8tuser :If I do ndiswrapper -i with the linksys connected, it shows the device is connected, but if I disconnect it and run the same command, it doesn't state it's connected [00:24] no, why use the USB one, when the internal works fine [00:24] Mefached: yes [00:24] Hi. Can someone tell me how long it usually takes to write a new partition table? It is a 2 terabyte disk with 16484 blocks. It looks like its gonna take a while for it to write all the inode tables.. [00:24] JessD-> perhaps there is a conflict, have only one at atime [00:24] Mathias90: not as long as you'd think... all depends on how much data has to be moved, etc [00:24] IndyGunFreak : Trying to find a method of using the linksys for a machine I can't get network access to without this card [00:24] IndyGunFreak: think we're mixing convos; i'm talking about the internal realtek wireless NIC not being detected; i have no USB one [00:25] i load the ubuntu installer and it askes for a login, what is the login? [00:25] Mathias90: Partition table tiny; a new filesystem which sounds like what you are doing is a lot longer [00:25] SporkWitch: i'm sorry. [00:25] Would there be any negative side effects for spoofing that MAC with my laptop? [00:25] SporkWitch IndyGunFreak : Think I'm stomping your toes, sorry! [00:25] what's about the cloud computing in the ubuntu karmic server? [00:25] JessD: no, i was confusing the two of you.. you answered my question [00:25] IndyGunFreak: no worries; JessD: no worries, i'm used to holding 10 convos at once, heh [00:26] IndyGunFreak > Oh well. Thanks for replying. The fact that it says 138/16384 just seems a bit odd. [00:26] Thats like 1/4 procent! [00:26] hmm that is tiny [00:26] hello i can not install ubuntu, when i boot the cd it askes for a login, what is the correct login. i can not find this information [00:27] Mefached: why are you trying to? o.O [00:27] bizzle: i believe if you pay attention, at the bottom it says, "Automatic login in 10sec" don't click anything, or anything like that, and it will eventually log you in [00:27] SporkWitch, my ISP, Comcast, has set up a box here with MAC filtering, and only my desktop works wired. I want to set up a WiFi router here, but until then, I want to be able to wire my laptop in. [00:27] bizzle, there shouldn't be a login... username: ubuntu password: [00:28] indygunfreak, i let it sit there for an hour and it never did anything [00:28] join #ubuntu.pl [00:28] can I use ping -a 192.168.10.1? [00:28] and ubuntu with no password does not wor [00:28] bizzle: and you're sure its a live CD [00:28] I do I install a command line only install using the karmic alt cd? [00:28] for Ubuntu? [00:28] for find the windows computer name? [00:28] Mefached: so you're trying to use the desktop as a router for the laptop to connect to? [00:28] its the i386 normal cd [00:28] daf_, use the ubuntu server disk? [00:29] bizzle: there is no password required on that CD, i've used it tons of times, i'm sure of it [00:29] penguin42 > Thanks for replying. Do you think its normal? The disc is removed from a refurbish Buffalo Linkstation. [00:29] daf_: ubuntu server edition [00:29] I can? [00:29] !server [00:29] 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 [00:29] yeah and i've used older versions and never had this issue [00:29] SporkWitch, well, no. My ultimate goal is to spoof the MAC address on a wifi router to get a wifi connection set up at this house. However, in the meantime, I want to connect directly with my laptop. Tethering through my smartphone is too slow for me sometimes. [00:29] check the cd for defects [00:29] nevermind this distro is useless [00:30] Mathias90: I've never gone as high as 2TB - and it's a long time since I did one over 1TB - it doesn't sound right; I'd watch with a top to see if it's eating a lot of memory, and also watch with a dmesg to watch for any disk errors [00:30] Sagaci I don't want to install any "server" stuff either. I just want the bare minimum so I can add only what I want but don't want to use a network install [00:30] someone can tell me? [00:30] when i installed nvidia graphics card and broadcom 802.11 driver in ubuntu 9.10 , my computer could not boot. only some blink appeared . i am going to reinstall it agian. what are the precautions i have to take to get rid of it. i want to install both grapchis card driver and broadcom driver into my computer. [00:30] anyone have experience with triple booting xp, osx, and *nix? which order is best, [00:30] how can I install ubuntu desktop 9.10 on a PC on the other side of the county? I have ssh access to the live cd. [00:30] m0se5: What's the other PC running? [00:31] penguin42 > Does it change anything that Im using af live disc? [00:31] m0se5-> netbootin is one, the remote end has windows or linux? [00:31] eeepc__ xp osx linux [00:31] eeepc__, on apple hardware? is there an apple channel? might be better to ask there. [00:31] penguin42, broken ubuntu 8.04 [00:31] somebody help! [00:31] Mefached: is the desktop running *nix or *doze? [00:31] m0se5, maybe ssh -X xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -- tunneling X [00:31] Mathias90: If it's short of RAM then it might, again try watching for RAM usage [00:31] binod: i doubt one is related to the other [00:31] m0se5: I think in principal you should be able to upgrade - the thing is if there's any problem then you won't be able to fix it [00:31] SporkWitch, everything I own runs *nix exclusively, although the desktop runs XP when my family is on it. (Dual boot.) [00:31] binod: i'm using the nvidia driver on my desktop no problem [00:32] /exit [00:32] is there an enhanced edited version for Ubuntu [00:32] Mefached: was just gonna suggest using ICS until you pick up a router; not like they're expensive, and it's probably not worth the headache of figuring out the spoof when a simple stop-gap solution exists [00:32] daf_, ty I thought it would be that way but am not familiar with osx bootloader and how finiky it is [00:32] IndyGunFreak: but mine is laptop. i faced that problem. what shall i do now? [00:32] SporkWitch, ICS? Networking is significantly my weakest field, knowledge-wise. [00:32] why gfceu works fine with sound on ubuntu 9.04 , and now i try it on ubuntu 9.10 works fine without sound,and if i activate the sound it freezes? plz help [00:32] mrwes, penguin42, Thanks. I'll try tunnelling X [00:33] hey guys gdm is gettng messed up and then no starting and you try to purge or reinstall it, not working, what gives? NEED HELP on this PLESE [00:33] fyi, the best way to get a ntfs partition to mount on boot is to install ntfs-config. [00:33] PLEASE [00:33] thanx though [00:33] ZykoticK9, no i am installing on an eeepc [00:33] Mefached: Internet Connection Sharing; basically, it lets your windows OS behave like a router [00:33] Mefached: i wouldn't use it for gaming`, but it'll get you online from the laptop [00:33] binod: well, install one, reboot and see if it causes a problem.. fi it doesn't, install the other.. how are yo installing the broadcom driver? [00:33] eeepc__ ive done it. I used a bootloader program and I can't remember the name of it but it was a windows program if I remember [00:33] Xgates: need help dude? [00:33] Xgates are you using JFS ? [00:33] Mefached: i'm sure there are *nix equivelents, i just don't know any off the top of my head [00:33] SporkWitch, the desktop only has one Ethernet port, and it has no Wifi card, so I don't see how that could work. === DaZ_ is now known as DaZ [00:33] eeepc__, best of luck then. sorry i can't help ya. [00:33] Mefached: ahh, fair enough then [00:33] It's not me some guys I'm helping [00:34] SporkWitch, I use Internet Connection Sharing to connect my Windows Mobile smartphone to my Ubuntu 9.04 laptop, so I know how it works a bit. [00:34] eeepc__ try this http://blog.gnist.org/article.php?story=triple-boot-osx-ubuntu-vista [00:34] Hey I tried to install a "live" Mint with unetbootin on my hd. When I boot I get a bunch of directory scans, then "Error cannot find GRLDR". [00:34] IndyGunFreak: i am installing it by activating the external hard-drive option. [00:34] !mintsupport | BubbaT [00:34] BubbaT: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint on irc.spotchat.org [00:34] Xgates: I am half a noob myself, but i have done a lot fo work with ubnutu in the past 3 years [00:34] Xgates its kind of dumb to be asking questions in here without the computer available, how can we help you if you cant tell us whats wrong? "gdm is broken" is not enough info to do anything [00:34] penguin42 > Actually there have been some parity problems with my RAM. I've run a Memtest, which found 1 error. I'm waiting for the manufactor to send me a new RAM. [00:34] Mefached: yeah, basically the same thing, yup; just high-ish latency, since windows is hardly known for great networking code in the first place, and it's exacerbated when you try to make it behave like a router [00:34] binod: external hard drive option? [00:35] So that's probably the problem.. [00:35] Mathias90: NOW you mention that! OK, go to sleep, the movies, whatever, but don't try creating a filesystem with bad ram [00:35] SporkWitch, I sit on IRC and Pidgin all day anyway. High latency wouldn't (and doesn't) bother me. [00:35] MrNaz_studio: http://pastebin.com/d7b06b46b [00:35] hylian: http://pastebin.com/d7b06b46b [00:35] sounds not working in karmic [00:35] Xgates: have you ctrl-alt f4'd it and then used gdm restart? does it give you an error [00:35] hello!!! anyone know about an issue when installing restricted extras? when i do it i get a black screen and i only can see the cursor, i had to make a clean install again to fix it [00:35] j /#linuxac [00:35] j/ #linuxac [00:35] Hello could someone redirect me to the ubuntu main channel PLOX [00:36] Mefached: hey, i just gotta give the disclaimer; makes me tear my hair out when i see all these noobs in games that blame lag for a poor framerate (caused by their crappy hardware and too-high settings), and blame lag on the server when it's really their connection or computer iteslf [00:36] penguin42 > Ehhh. It's damn late here. You seriously can't expect me to use the brain.. [00:36] daf_, yeah that seems on par with all the tutorials i found that install on mac hardware. That tutorial starts with osx on a full partition then splits and installs vista [00:36] I use acer travelmate 6292 , the karmic work good. [00:36] i mean general discussion channel [00:36] at this time at least. [00:36] #linuxac [00:36] derek_smart, this is it [00:36] Mathias90: OK :-) Sleep then! seriously, you aren't going to get far with bad ram [00:36] hylian: It's not me, someone I'm helping, when they said they installed gdm they said it never working so I had them run ---> aptitude purge and reinstall but now it won't reinstall back in [00:36] no this is help channel [00:36] hello!!! anyone know about an issue when installing restricted extras? when i do it i get a black screen and i only can see the cursor, i had to make a clean install again to fix it [00:36] SporkWitch, I'm an emulator-only gamer myself, and the only multiplayer I play is online Pokemon and some occasional OpenArena. I know what you mean, and that's why I don't game. [00:37] j / #linuxac [00:37] ayman: try this: /j #linuxac [00:37] i mean ubuntu general discussion or something [00:37] derek_smart, #ubuntu-offtopic for chat [00:37] There are a ridiculous number of Radio Shacks in New York City. Like every 10 blocks there is a radio shack [00:37] Mefached: lol; my main one is EVE Online which, luckily, runs happily in WINE / cidega, for most people; but first things first, i need to make this damnable thing see my wireless NIC [00:37] hylian: that's the pastebin url I gave you showing a Exec format error like a script problem [00:37] daf_, i currently triple boot xp, slack, and ubuntu. so xp came first in this instance just not sure if i start from scratch who goes first [00:37] Xgates: did they first do sudo apt-get update? [00:37] penguin42 > I was about to hook at boot cd into my other laptop, but I couldn't find the darn charger! [00:37] emma: s/radio shack/the shack/ ;) [00:37] thanks sir [00:37] SporkWitch, is there not a Linux client for EVE? Last I checked, there was. [00:37] hello!!! anyone know about an issue when installing restricted extras? when i do it i get a black screen and i only can see the cursor, i had to make a clean install again to fix it [00:38] ayman: all irc commands start with /, als the rest is chat [00:38] hehe yeah that's on their door now 'the shack' [00:38] Mefached: deprecated; they dropped official support with the march expansion due to lack of interest. they now only maintain the mac and linux clients, but it always ran fine in WINE before, and continues to [00:38] *mac and windows [00:38] b0w: My guess is the restricted extras is installing a device driver for something that it doesn't like [00:38] SporkWitch, well, that's good. Never was into MMOs, but I did play EVE for a little bit. [00:39] emma: it's cuz the youngones don't know what a radio is ...thinks ratshack marketing (they might be right) [00:39] Anyway. I better go to sleep anyway. Thanks for helping me out. [00:39] ok [00:39] sir [00:39] Mefached: i somehow found myself becoming a director in one of the top 40 alliances lol [00:39] No need to rebuild. Just dump whichever *nx you are replacing. the main thing is xp first simply because it screws up the boot loader [00:39] penguin42: yeah i thought so, but by any chance you know wich drivers on the restricyted extras is causing something like that? [00:39] can me ask u [00:39] eeepc__ ^ [00:39] hylian: ok having him run an update to see if it fixes [00:39] Xgates: from what i got from a quick google, it looks like one of the files, in this case gdm, was somehow trashed, probably by a crash.. [00:39] SporkWitch, do you know if there are any cheap routers on which it would be easy to spoof a MAC address? I don't have money to spend on anything >$50. (Maybe a little higher.) [00:39] trampel, a good point. [00:39] iam needed help for ubuntu 9.10 [00:39] hylian: no updates for the system update didn't do anything [00:39] rampel: what are these "VHS" you speak of? O.o [00:39] b0w: I don't know, I don't have it myself - I'd guess graphics driver [00:39] eeepc__ osx is "similar" to linux. [00:39] Hi. I am having trouble with my audio, in 9.10. I do not have any hardware showing in my Sound Preferences. Is there a way to fix this? [00:39] IndyGunFreak: i just forget tha option but there is one option in application... then ... hardware...,i could not exactly recall it ... i was doing it takinf help from internet... after clicking button i got 3-4 drivers .... those were nvidia grapchis card , broad com and others. i just activated those driver and got installed. after installing it mine laptop could not open [00:40] Mefached: any linksys or netgear should have it right in the settings [00:40] they're usually 30 bucks (US) [00:40] daf_, yeah based off darwin if i remember correctly [00:40] Why there's no sound in karmic and I've turned everything up === chaky_ is now known as chaky [00:40] penguin42: yeah well ill give it another try thank you [00:40] I just upgrade my ubuntu version using update manager [00:40] binod: was that 9.04, or 9.10? [00:40] I have the same issues LinuX2half . [00:40] Xgate: Have them do a apt-get uninstall gdm. then reinstall. we need to have it re get the file, i think. this is a little over my head, but that's the best help i can offer [00:40] IndyGunFreak: 9.10 [00:40] aquachica: Cheers [00:41] ctmjr, did you say that you downloaded an alpha version or was it actual release. 190 was released 10-27 [00:41] hylian: I read this might help ---> replacing the postrm and the postinst scripts of the offending packages, with a script that does nothing, then 'dpkg --purge' them to get rid of the packages, then re-install the packages. [00:41] hi, i'm trying to configure keyboard, but dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does nothing. is that normal? [00:41] LinuX2half: Have you checked in the Sound Preferences to see if you have any hardware available? [00:41] Xgates: sounds like you read the same article i did [00:41] aquachica: yes I did and there's only one [00:41] hylian: where are those scripts located for gdm? [00:42] binod: i dunno, do you have non-wireless internet access...? [00:42] aquachica: specifically is internal audio [00:42] Jester05: the stable one [00:42] LinuX2half: I do not have any. [00:42] IndyGunFreak: i have that only ... during installtion i did it from cable internet [00:42] blaz_ i dont think that is used anymore, X -configure is the new way [00:42] aquachica: well that means that its not detected [00:42] LinuX2half: Supposedly, you should be able to find a huge list. [00:42] hello [00:42] binod_: ok, which broadcom device do you have, do you know? [00:42] LinuX2half: The funny thing is that my audio was working before. [00:43] Xgates: i am afraid i have no idea. that's why i suggested you use app-get. or you could try dpkg--restore, but i don't know where the scripts reside [00:43] aquachica: Yeah, mine too before I upgrade it [00:43] mine hardward is broadcom 802.11 [00:43] wirechief: what does it do? will it overwrite my xorg.conf ? [00:43] hylian: what just run ---> sudo dpkg --restore [00:43] Jester05: this one http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_190.42.html [00:43] LinuX2half: Sorry to say, but I am not liking 9.10. I think 9.04 was better. [00:43] IndyGunFreak: mine hardware is broadcom 802.11 [00:43] ctmjr, alright.. thanks for your help :) .. gotta go install this thing the ol fashion way lol killin X [00:43] blaz_ i dont think xorg.conf is used any more in /etc/X11 [00:43] aquachica: AND even before THAT, when I first install Ubuntu, the sound doesn't work too [00:43] Xgates except for the space, just sudo dpkg--restore, all together [00:43] ctmjr, I'll be back lol [00:44] k [00:44] aquachica, that seems to be what everyone's saying. Personally, I'm still using 8.04 on my desktop and 8.10 on my laptop. They work fine. [00:44] blaz_ it creates a file in /home/user [00:44] aquachica: well karmic solved my graphic problems [00:44] Jester05: ok good luck let me know how it goes [00:44] binod_: 802.11 is the wireless protcol, what is the version of the broadcom car.. like 4311, 4312, etc [00:44] wirechief: thanks! i'll try [00:44] o/ [00:44] karmic: the videos isn't quite choppy anymore.... [00:44] Mefached: I might have to reinstall 9.04. I really dislike the interface of 9.10. [00:44] IndyGunFreak, all of the Broadcom 43xx cards have drivers, don't they? [00:44] IndyGunFreak: i am sorry i dun know much about it [00:44] blaz_ for more info check out x.org [00:44] Xgates, then you could use dpkg -install gdm. [00:44] aquachica, what does it look like? I haven't tested 9.xx yet [00:45] IndyGunFreak: i will try to see it now [00:45] Hi everybody [00:45] Mefached: supposed to... but i don't think they work *out of the box* w/ 9.10 [00:45] hylian: k [00:45] binod_: lspci in a terminal will tell you what you want to know === lb is now known as vo|d [00:45] anyone feel like helping me getting conky to read a new config file so i can get it to do what i want? [00:45] blaz_ you have to stop services for gdm and then restart after you reconfigure [00:45] LinuX2half: Karmic is a little faster, but if that is all I am getting with all these issues, it isn't worth it. [00:45] IndyGunFreak, they don't work out of the box with anything, but if you get a direct connection, it'll suggest the right drivers for you from the GUI [00:45] hylian: someone said sudo dpkg--restore isn't a valid command [00:45] if anyone has a better idea on how to replace damaged script files from apt-get or dpkg, please tell Xgates [00:45] IndyGunFreak: i am using windows in same device since mine linux is not working === binod_ is now known as binod [00:46] Mefached: again, if what everyone has said today, broadcmo isn't in the restricted driver w/ 9.10 [00:46] Mefached: It not has a list for you to select your name and password, and the icons make everything vague. [00:46] hylian: sudo: dpkg--restore: command not found [00:46] IndyGunFreak, really? That's no good. [00:46] aquachica, GDM and icons are easy fixes, though. [00:46] My archive mounter, when mounting a .iso, will have a ;1 behind every file. It's driving me insane. How do i fix this problem? [00:46] IndyGunFreak: can you suggest me how can i install it? [00:46] Xgates: sorry man, i use damn small linux too, and on it dpkg--restore is a viable command [00:46] wirechief: it looks like i need to kill X first, X -configure it says "Server is already active for display 0" [00:46] why im having unsupported command on empathy :/ [00:47] hylian: not here it is [00:47] while im trying to identify my nick :o [00:47] Mefached: Well, I dislike the fact that someone can scroll through a list of users on 9.10 at start up. [00:47] IndyGunFreak, there's some manual compilation that can be done for broadcom 43xx cards too. [00:47] binod: yeah, gimme a sec, io'm gonna get my dart board, and set it up w/ some answers, then i'll give you one of them.. i dont' know what device you have, how the hell do you expect me to help you [00:47] Xgates: yeah i see that now... one sec, ill brb [00:47] aquachica, changing that behavior can be changed in Preferences in less than a minute. [00:47] how to disable splash screen???????? [00:47] Mefached: i know. [00:47] Mefached: Plus, the Newtwork Connections and Manger do not display a broadcast list. [00:47] wirechief: i don't use gdm, just plainold startx, ok let me try... [00:48] aquachica: well not really, have you try to hear the sound using a headphone? [00:48] blaz_ xorg.conf.new gets created in /home/user when you run the X -configure but youll need to stop gdm services first while in a vt then when its done you restart sudo services gdm start [00:48] LinuX2half: I had sound before I started fixing my wireless connection. Once I fixed that, the sound left. [00:48] blaz_ all that stuff has changed with 9.10 [00:48] Xgates: for ubuntu it's apt-get repair, same thing, kinda [00:48] k [00:49] hello everybody [00:49] IndyGunFreak, I see no reason to shield new users from simple compilation fixes, to be honest. [00:49] aquachica: what did you do to fix your wireless, that scrweed up your sound, thats pretty interesting [00:49] hello nelson [00:49] i just upgraded a laptop of mine to 9.10 and just manually upgraded to ext4 following this guide: http://maketecheasier.com/how-to-upgrade-from-ext3-to-ext4-without-formatting-the-hard-disk/2009/04/21 on the step where it has me update grub i get [00:49] grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /boot/grub. [00:49] No path or device is specified [00:49] Mefached: i don't either, but he's yet to tell me which broadcom device he has, to even give him a general idea of an FAQ to follow... [00:49] how to disable splash screen [00:49] i just did a fresh install and everytime i go to add a ppa and key the key cant be found from server [00:49] aquachica: hm, thats weird, maybe you could using the recovery console. [00:49] hi , Is there any AWK specialist here ? [00:49] This is the first time I've had a very successful upgrade from one version to another an I'm pleased with it. the machine flys now :) [00:49] if he can't do that, i'm not gonna bother trying to answer him any further, i've asked him 3x, and he's not responded [00:50] So, uh, I just upgraded my computer to karmic...and it's no longer connecting(or listing in the gui) my integrated NIC. [00:50] Thank god for multiple computers Dx [00:50] hi, Is Ubuntu Lucid enabled for dist-upgrade? [00:50] i've been trying to install the ubuntu 9.10, but i can't. I get a black screen saying Out Of Range [00:50] any help? [00:50] shakaran, no [00:50] Seems like a lot of 9.10 complaints in here tonight. Perhaps a premature release? [00:50] nelson8874: alternate install cd [00:50] anyone here using empathy? [00:50] !ask [00:50] My archive mounter, when mounting a .iso, will have a ;1 behind every file. It's driving me insane. How do i fix this problem? [00:50] 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. :-) [00:50] Mefached: no, this is pretty normal right after a new release... [00:50] nelson8874 use X -configure [00:50] !empathy [00:50] Empathy is an instant messaging and video chat client for GNOME. In !karmic, Empathy will replace Pidgin as the default IM client. [00:50] bazhang: I see on launchpad some package with lucid changelog [00:51] nelson8874: easy, find a setting to force a resolution; it's not correctly detecting your monitor's max resolution, and it can't display the resolution it's trying to output [00:51] hylian: repair isn't valid [00:51] whats the command to automaticly download all the ppa keys at once that are missing [00:51] IndyGunFreak: I went to the Hardware Drivers to see what was there. I also tried a command in Alt + F2, that I am trying to remember. [00:51] Oh hey, another reboot and it connected. [00:51] Guys im running karmic, with ATI FOSS driver and have broken TTY, any ideas on fixing them? [00:51] Xgates: the command isn't, or did apt-get puke? [00:51] IndyGunFreak: It was something I found on one of the Ubuntu forums on how to fix the wireless connection. === trojan is now known as Guest80783 [00:51] hylian: it's not a valid cmd [00:51] W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 6AF0E1940624A220 [00:51] splash screen! [00:51] Xgates: but i use it all the time, one sec [00:52] aquachica: no disrespect, but i have absolutely no clue what you are talking about. [00:52] hi , Is there any AWK specialist here ? [00:52] webbb82: what repositories have you added to your source list?. you need to add the gpg key [00:52] For some reason... I have to reboot several times to get things a single reboot should fix, to work, quite often. :/ [00:52] Guys im running karmic, with ATI FOSS driver and have broken TTY, any ideas on fixing them???? [00:52] hylian: you sure? ---> sudo apt-get repair? [00:53] My archive mounter, when mounting a .iso, will have a ;1 behind every file. It's driving me insane. How do i fix this problem? [00:53] Xgates: no im thinking of yet another distro, sorry, it's sudo apt-get install -f [00:53] sporkwitch: how do i do that? i'm sorry but this is , well, the third time i'm instaling ubuntu. i'm pretty new to this... [00:53] http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic Release:NO_PUBKEY 6AF0E1940624A220 [00:53] how can i print line which is 5 lines before the pattern with AWK ? [00:53] everyime it goes to request key it says timed out [00:53] aquachica: hey I solved it [00:53] IndyGunFreak: First, I was trying to get my wireless connection to work because the Network Connection was only showing "wlan0", "eth0", and "lo". I was hoping to change it so that it would show the broadcasts, so I went to the Ubuntu forums to find something that would work. [00:53] hylian: yeah I know that one, ok just run that is all? ----> sudo apt-get install -f [00:54] LinuX2half: What was the solution? [00:54] nelson8874: no idea, this is my first time trying ubuntu, have always used Gentoo before; i just know what your symptoms indicate, and that is that it's trying to output a resolution your monitor can't support [00:54] for issues with xserver and getting a visible desktop review this help : http://www.x.org/wiki/FAQ [00:54] hylian: that's just a FORCE cmd if the script if foobard that will not work [00:54] Xgates: yeah, unless you already sudo su'd. (ubuntu'ers really hate that, but i do it all the time, naughty naughty) [00:54] aquachica: don't suppose you know of a way to force it to see wlan0? heh; the problem i'm having right now is that it doesn't see my wifi at all [00:54] nelson8874: i would suggest the alternate install CD, but thats just me [00:54] hylian: what? [00:54] Help: wubi grub wont load ubuntu but failsafe loads fine and i can start gdm [00:55] xgates that is the fix broken command [00:55] aquachica: well the solution anyway works for me but I have no idea if it'll work for you so....listen carefully [00:55] is there a way to force apt-get to reinstall a package ? [00:55] IndyGunFreak: I found a command that was supposed to work. I entered it, but it did not work. I did find, in the Preferences, the Networks Connections where I could adjust my connections. [00:55] aquachica: listen to LinuX2half he seems to have solved your issue [00:55] <{aaron}> hi guys, i have a weird problem. i just installed an ubuntu machine at a remote location. i came back home and could connect via ssh. now, for some reason, i cannot connect, but my existing session still works. i don't want to close my existing session. what do you suggest for determining the cause? [00:55] how long is the loading bar supposed to take [00:55] <{aaron}> ssh is up and i can log in to local host [00:55] Xgates: dam, im sorry man. i know there is a command to repair and check damages scripts, which is what you need, but i am drawing a bank, i guess i play with too many distro's, brb [00:55] dassouki you can use force i would look in man apt [00:55] installing ubuntu 9.1 [00:55] aquachica: Go to Sound Preference --> Output ---> Connector --> Choose Analog Output / No Amphlifier === anonymous__ is now known as gantrixx [00:56] Hello. On 9.10 using Urban Terror. Sound starts to go funky (broken up then completely out). Then the computer freezes when i exit UT. Any ideas? [00:56] Wiki ; it 9.10 [00:56] aquachica: Then see if there's any sound [00:56] <{aaron}> i'm afraid it's some weird problem w/ the cable modem (maybe it's thinks my connection are attacks??) [00:56] bye guys [00:56] SporkWitch: I right clicked on the connection icon, clicked on Properties, and selected wlan0. I connected once I did that. [00:56] dassouki you can use force i would look in man apt if your using dpkg there is a force , again use man dpkg [00:56] how do i get the alternate cd? (i do not know what you mean :S [00:56] can somebody help me write some code in python?????? [00:56] nelson8874: its a text based installer for ubuntu(not a live CD) [00:56] I noticed that the 9.10 image says amd64.iso; will there be an x86_64.iso? [00:56] !alternate | nelson8874 [00:56] nelson8874: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal [00:56] aquachica: yeah, that's what i'm saying, it doesn't see the device itself, under that, network tools, etc.; it doesn't detect it at all [00:57] gantrixx: AMD64 is for intel processors as well (much like i386 isn't just for *i*ntel) [00:57] hylian: doesn't work same error cause script it hosed [00:57] aquachica: it doesn't detect the NIC, haven't even gotten to trying to get it to see the network yet, heh [00:57] LinuX2half: The only connector that I have is Dummy Output (Stereo). [00:57] I've created a shell script (http://code.google.com/p/pomamonitor/) and I want to distribute it in a .deb file. How can I learn how to create a package for Ubuntu? [00:57] that seems to be to complicated to me... [00:57] ;-) [00:57] KurtKraut: #ubuntu-motu can help you out [00:57] what's the command to see if a apache and php are running?

Sound starts to go funky (broken up then completely out). Then the computer freezes when i exit UT. Any ideas? [00:59] Xgates: i now know why i thought repair was a valid command... http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/7770/. they list other commands that would act much like repair, if they ever implementnit. i hope that helps [00:59] rance: Some channels are only available to registered IRC users (to cut down on spam) yeah. [00:59] LinuX2half: Somehow, my computer only sees that Dummy Output. [00:59] aquachica: ssid, yes, left bssid and mac address blank, i'm not running any security, just have broadcast disabled and use mac filtering on the router [00:59] aquachica: run sudo alsa force-reload [00:59] jeffreyf: i hd a problem like that, i can't say 100%, but I think the computer screensaver was trying to come on [01:00] i set the screensaver for 1hr, and never had the prob again [01:00] okay [01:00] !register [01:00] Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type « /nick » to select your nickname .

[01:00] Xgates: i know this is probably a very very second to third thousand thought in your head, but listing your problem with the brainstorm might make apt-get repair a reality. [01:00] lsof -i for apache didn't work [01:00] rance: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration will explain it [01:00] IndyGunFreak: Nope, I just started it. Screen saver wouldn't kick in for another 20 minutes [01:01] hylian: well we need a fix now not later [01:01] jeffreyf: dunno [01:01] aquachica: anything? [01:01] aquachica: and i thought getting an ATI video card to work was frustrating, heh [01:01] Xgates: right, but that article lists ways of doing the same now, all be it not as easy, but they are listed there [01:01] SporkWitch: That is one of the things I dislike about 9.10. In 9.04, you had everything there. Now, you have to looking all over the place for it. I am considering looking into using WICD. [01:01] aquachica, you should install wicd the moment you boot anyway. === Nightw0lf is now known as Nightwolf [01:02] Looking for help getting permissions to edit files on my server using connect to server in ubuntu desktop [01:02] aquachica: i normally use Gentoo, but for whatever reason, it can't find the cd-rom after it gets to X point in the boot sequence [01:02] LinuX2half: I now have Hardware. ^_^ [01:02] how do i send a kernel message? logger -p kern.warning doesn't seem to work [01:02] Mefached: Is that what you use?

[01:03] helo cedriczg [01:03] SporkWitch: 9.04 worked really well. [01:03] SporkWitch: depending on the device, like everything else.. some work great, some not so great [01:03] LinuX2half: Let me try. [01:03] hylian, Hi [01:03] Xgates, did you get my last reply? [01:03] hylian, I am looking for some help configuring the graphics to more than 800x600 [01:03] sasalli: if you find one, i commend you; ATI's linux drivers are horrid; i had that exact card and never managed it, i actually got better performance out of the on-board xpress 200 series graphics [01:04] I have urgent question. Ubuntu warning in system tray says that my harddrive may fail me (bad sectors on it) and I need to know if ubuntu can fix it?? [01:04] aquachica: what kind of computer you're running? HP? Dell? [01:04] hmm [01:04] LinuX2half: I can hear!!!!! YAY! ^_^ [01:04] hylian: I just want to find the postrm and the postinst scripts [01:04] SporkWitch, my current desktop uses an XPress 200, it's horrible. Gaming on this machine is impossible. It doesn't give me problems either, though. [01:04] hylian, I have researched forums and tried with Xorg -configure and changing xorg.conf but no solution yet [01:04] LinuX2half: Toshiba Satellite. [01:04] Aquachica: Cheers Then :) [01:04] hylian, Can you help me? [01:04] SporkWitch: Thanks! [01:04] LinuX2half: Thank you! ^_^ [01:04] chev: a low-level format might help, but bad sectors are a sign of the thing actually getting old and wearing out, usually [01:04] Aquachica: Looks like we both got our problems solved [01:05] aquachica, I don't use GNOME, so I don't use wicd, but back when I did, wicd was the best. It works quite well. [01:05] Aquachica: No Problem :) [01:05] cedriczq, maybe. but i need a little more info than that, and im at best a lvl 2 noob [01:05] ok [01:05] aquachica, I do everything from a console now. Once I get wifi set up here, I may put wicd on my laptop. [01:05] Mefached: the xpress 200 was damn decent when it came out, but it's more than 3 years old now, that's the problem, heh; it's better than the geforce 4 MX-series cards, though [01:05] LinuX2half: Yeah. I am so glad. You should post that somewhere so that others can get their audio fixed. [01:05] upgraded to karmic, I can get skype to make sounds, but when I use the sound test service, I can't hear my message being played back. anyone have ideas? [01:06] Looking for help getting permissions to edit files on my server using connect to server in ubuntu desktop. I can connect using this but when I try to create files or edit cfg files it denies me [01:06] IndyGunFreak: it wasn't an attack on ubuntu, it's just frustrating, especially since it's realtek, which in my experience is about as generic as things get, normally if anything will work with something, it's the realtek components, heh [01:06] hylian, I would say I am also kind of noob. But two noobs may do better than only one ;) [01:06] Mefached: I might end up going to wicd. I really need to see the broadcasts available to me on the tray like 9.04. [01:06] Aquachica: Well, its already posted online by someone else.... [01:06] :)so how would I start apache? [01:06] aquachica, Mefached, what's WICD? [01:06] Hello all; I'm working on my father-in-law's Ubuntu comp from thousands of miles away. Mostly in cli but I do have remote desktop. His issue is that his all fat32 hdd is only writable from root. I've added him to users, made sure fstab includes defaults,users and still it is read only. Help? [01:06] cedriczg, yes. so do you have a graphics card driver installed? [01:06] hylian, I have been using ubuntu since 5.04 and you? [01:06] I'm really trying to try out nagios [01:06] SporkWitch: i understand, believe me..... [01:07] Oh, and I chmod 0775 to that entire shared directory .. [01:07] SporkWitch: WICD is network program. [01:07] snuffy47: you own the directory / have write permission there ? [01:07] SporkWitch, wicd is a very nice gnome network manager. Probably the best. [01:07] just installed ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop and sound, usb and touchpad do not work. Any help? [01:07] * NineTeen67Comet nagious kicked my butt .. still with I could figure it out ..

I recently had my sound restored. [01:11] lol [01:11] w/ DasEi mmm [01:11] snuffy: yep [01:11] how?

Dell does, sometimes. [01:12] ctmjr, bad news.. i put the new driver in but its still not detecting the other monitor.. :-\ any clue? [01:12] The best Linux support is IRC, though. Always will be.

[01:17] hi, quick question: how do you launch a terminal launching an application? [01:17] chowder, theres no scripts responsible, its just one file /etc/fstab [01:17] hylian, and this is my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/m779ac626 it is as per the clean install [01:17] snuffy: yes for the directories or even just the files you want to write to [01:18] oip: most usually you just open a terminal and then type the name of that application in the terminal [01:18] hylian, I suppose no configuration was done as there may be some driver or config missing [01:18] Has anyone in here had any issues running ubuntu 9.10 64bit and nvidia drivers. I'm trying to configure dual displays but it seems to not be detecting my second monitor in nvidia-settings.. PLZ help :) [01:18] what application are you trying to run?

[01:19] packet-sent: Ubuntu 9.04 and up seems to do that when it boots. I believe you need to turn off your PC speaker. [01:19] so no GUI or just with the error reporting? [01:19] w/ DasEi chmod a+rwx / [01:19] snuffy47: set permission to read write andexecute [01:19] usser: fstab is the file system table.

[01:19] query oip [01:19] aquachica: the sound does not appear to come from the speaker but from inside the case [01:20] IndyGunFreak, no in nvidia-settings its acting almost as if theres only one connected.. however when u click configure to configure the card it is also only allowing me to select the sep. X option.. twinview is grayed out.. dunno if that would be whats causing the other monitor not to be scene or what tho [01:20] thays the system beep [01:20] anyone used ndiswrapper? [01:20] i'm wanting to remotely dist-upgrade to karmic from jaunty. i've done it in the past but wondering if there are any tips or reasons not to with this release [01:20] Is there a turtorial with a good example of a simple samba confg [01:20] packet-sent: Some desktops have small internal speakers for beeps and stuff. You might want to check and see if you computer has one. [01:20] i will try a live dvd, instead of the live cd. Maybe i will not get the black screen OUT OF RANGE.... [01:20] Jester05: and you have the restricted driver enabled, right? [01:20] going to try permissions :) [01:20] cedriczg, maybe, i have been reading up on your graphics card, and it's only supported using the driver fglrx via ubuntu's pen source driver list. is fglrx installed, or i should ask, what driver is installedz/ [01:21] i just did a fresh install of 9.10 but no sound, any ideas ? ... Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) [01:21] nelson8874: use the alternate install cd [01:21] cedriczg, sorry bad typing open source driver list [01:21] juha, no sound or sound to low? [01:21] juha: i read something about that.. something about pulse audio and some sound devices [01:21] VCoolio: don't know if you're still having a problem, but I figured out why DISPLAY=:0.0 notify-send blah wasn't working, they moved the xauthority in karmic. So you either need to set $XAUTHORITY to it's currently location, or extract it to it's default location in .Xauthority, and then it will work again. [01:21] no sound at all [01:21] IndyGunFreak, yes.. i started out w/ 185 which gave me the same error, after talking to ctmjr I decided to update to 190 which is out stable via nvidia's site and i'm having the same issue [01:21] Jester05: i do not have pm enabled what happens if you just connect the second monitor by itself does it get detected [01:22] hylian, thanks I will check which drivers I have installed for fglrx [01:22] aquachica: good point it could be that which is casuing the issue unfortunatly this is a laptop and I dont think it possible to open case without destroying it (with my hammer hands anyways) [01:22] i'm new on linux. i will probably mess all the process on the alternate cd [01:22] nelson8874: its not that hard... did you download and burn it? === tj83__ is now known as tj83_away [01:22] i do not understand a lot of the names and stuff [01:22] nelson8874: the process is pretty much the same, it just text-based ;) [01:22] I'm using 9.10, I'm connected to my wireless ap. But whenb I go to, VPN-connections > configure VPN, the Add button is gray... [01:22] cedriczg, a fglrx driver will probably be visable at system-administration-hardware drivers [01:22] trism: it was solved by killing gnome-settings-daemon, which I didn't want running anyway; but thx very much for the headsup, I 'll keep that in mind [01:23] well, i will try it [01:23] how do i make it so that all my HDD's are mounted automatically when i start up ubuntu? [01:23] chessboxing, you need to install additional packages for network-manager vpn support [01:23] trism: but it also wasn't working with screen in jaunty the last few weeks [01:23] Its kinda making a hiss n chirping sound like tvs used to make when a valve is loose [01:23] packet-sent: I know that my laptop makes a weird beep sound when Ubuntu starts up. I think it is the way the OS initializes the speakers. Perhaps, someone else has another opinion on it. [01:24] w/ DasEi that worked [01:24] i'm from portugal and now its 01:23 I wil download it through the night and will try install it tomorow [01:24] hylian, I have now installed the fglrx-modaliases [01:24] awisgod: edit /etc/fstab or install the disk utility [01:24] usser: ok I'll seek [01:24] how do I restart alsa-utils? [01:24] chessboxing, network-manager-vpnc or network-manager-openvpn depending if you're connecting to cisco type vpn server or openvpn server [01:24] hylian, should I isntalle the restriceted ones?

[01:35] With Ubuntu 9.10 out, I'm fairly certain there are more important questions than this, but I have to try.............. I installed Karmic to a USB flash drive. How does one duplicate a flash drive install to another flash drive? I want to be able to have multiple copies of Ubuntu on multiple flash drives without having to install every twiddly little program every time. For reference, both drives are 8 gigabyte, and I've already partitioned the destinati [01:35] on drive the same way Ubuntu installer partitioned the source flash drive, and put a boot flag on the ext4 home partition. [01:36] wirechief, i tried it, seems like its already installed http://pastebin.com/mb39822 [01:36] ohh yeah, i have heard form a couple of people that for right now the best way to get software is through apt-get or synaptic. (under syste-administration-synaptic package manager) [01:36] hylian:then it takes me to that site your system encountered a serious kernel problem thats all that keeps popping up [01:36] is there a ubuntu music player that can take hte last 5 seconds of one song and mix it with the hext 5 seconds of the next song?

[01:37] hey, quick question, if I run the upgrade to Karmic, will that overwrite a dead graphics driver? [01:38] Okay, I've just started out here. [01:38] MikeChelen, ok thanks! [01:38] hylian, see you later. Will reboot now ;) [01:38] u can still work on computer just ignor [01:38] I'm trying to enable Normal visual effects. [01:38] But it's unable to enable them. [01:38] Will_Stout: upgrades will only overwrite what the system installed via .deb earlier, not third-party software [01:38] sxx, did you just upgrade to 9.10, and did the whole upgrade procedure complete without problems? (untill reboot ofcoarse) [01:38] Ah well, I had to try........... [01:38] just ignor it [01:38] vladimir make sure to do apt-get update first [01:38] 9.10 on a 2008 iMac. [01:38] ok, must remove that then.. [01:38] cedriczg, good luck [01:39] inclue: did you install any graphics drivers? [01:39] I tried. [01:39] I know I used to have to before they discontinued mine... [01:39] rictec: so make a backup first...

[01:43] sxx, to be honest, i hate to say i can't help someone. but there is no way to really troubleshoot a computer you can't even gain access too. if there is more to the error message, maybe. you have 2 possibilities, you could try a reinstall, but if it's hardware, you will get the same problem. [01:43] Running what? [01:43] Jester05: glad you figured it out [01:43] I'm relatively new to linux, this says the driver installer must be launhed from command line [01:43] ctmjr, yeah.. it was driving me freaking nuts..

[01:44] sxx, there is also a small chance that something is wrong with grub, i had this problem wqith 8.04, i would have to reinstall unbuntu every so often on a fresh install because grub had errors [01:44] r00to3: it should switch you to the first console [01:44] Desktop effects still can't be enabled. [01:44] how do i exit that? [01:44] I actually have the driver and have it activated. [01:44] r00to3: ctrl-f7 [01:44] CTRL+ALT+F7 returns you to the display [01:44] odd, [01:44] r00to3: er, alt-f7 [01:44] Restarting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd /usr/sbin/cupsd: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/cupsd: undefined symbol: _httpReadGNUTLS [01:44] Oh, wait.

[01:49] Does anyone know how I could go about making the terminal that ubuntu starts with (printing messages from starting daemons) to allow me to log in, instead of just sitting there? === flame is now known as flaem [01:50] hello [01:50] porter1, are you talking about the plain ole' terminal? [01:50] Anyone know of a page where I can get a good rundown of the changes between Jaunty and Karmic? [01:51] i've been playing around with 9.10 for a while and managed to remove some panel items [01:51] now i can't get them back :< [01:51] How do I get single clicking in file dialog boxes? I got it working in nautilus, but when a software opens a file dialog box it never single clicks. [01:51] Can I get Command acting as Control? [01:51] I'm sure I can. [01:51] incluye: system -> preferences -> keyboard -> layout options can probably do it. Otherwise, just use xmodmap [01:52] hylian, well, I want the kernel to run init and start the daemons I need, but I want the main terminal to start getty or whatever allows me to log in. [01:52] diguana, here is a nice article from digg, but maybe you wanted more specicfic? http://digg.com/linux_unix/What_s_New_in_Ubuntu_9_10 [01:52] Layout options isn't here, jrib.

[01:53] hylian, it's ok, maybe someone else might know then. [01:53] hylian: That's the sort of thing I'm looking for. Thanks. [01:53] complete chaos.. [01:53] hi folks, after upgrade i'm not seeing application icons in the upper-left of every application; instead i see a generic grey circle, instead of the x-chat icon for the x-chat window, firefox icon for firefox, etc.; googling hasn't revealed anything specific so far and i just skimmed the release notes and didn't see it, any ideas? [01:53] flashing caps lock = kernel panic correct? [01:54] diguana, glad to be of help [01:54] incluye: you have an apple keyboard? [01:54] Indeed. [01:54] anyone who knows how i can restore the 9.10-specific panel items? [01:54] i can't find them in "Add to panel.." [01:54] incluye: system > preferences >keyboard then select your model in the drop down [01:54] Does anyone know how I could go about making the terminal that ubuntu starts with (printing messages from starting daemons) to allow me to log in, instead of just sitting there? I'm working using a serial connection by the way. [01:54] i'm thinking it's some sort of corrupt icon cache or something, but i have no idea where to go with this issue [01:54] has there been anything new like widgets come out for gnome or is widgets it.. and if so have widgets gotten any better than what they were a few yrs back? [01:54] then layout options [01:55] anyone else like pidgin more than empathy? [01:55] there you can change your ctrl key [01:55] osubuck: I do. [01:55] !panels | flaem [01:55] hylian, Hi again. I had to apt-get remove the package from root terminal to be able to run again on graphical :( [01:55] flaem: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [01:55] incluye: like I said, use xmodmap if the particular setup you wan't isn't available there [01:55] this may not be the place for it, but is there anything like Quicken for Ubuntu? [01:55] is my monitor supposed to be on fire with 9.10? lol [01:55] Jester05, there are some decent widget programs. [01:55] hylian, So I still need to keep on researching [01:55] not a big deal but i think putting empathy instead of pidgin was a mistake [01:55] IdleOne: thanks :) [01:55] matthew1: Homebank or GnuCash [01:55] Can someone give me an example of an xmodmap command? [01:56] cavalierprime, thank you [01:56] Ubuntu is coming close to making Microsoft mistakes. [01:56] np [01:56] if anyone can link me to a bug report or give me a good search query for this issue i'd appreciate that too; like i said, i've searched around a fair bit already and haven't found anything [01:56] incluye: the examples section of « man xmodmap » should have some [01:56] porter1, whats a really stable one that would give me the ability to add an active HUD of my pc's status.. i need cpu, network, ram, hdd usages if possible [01:56] Yeah, it's just enormous and I don't really get it. [01:56] matthew1: if you want a pro level item, try NolaPro too [01:56] Oh, wait. [01:56] This might do it. [01:56] "add" [01:56] incluye: so read only the examples section. You asked for an example [01:57] cedriczg, i had the same problem with a ati x1300. i was hopiing you wouldnt. i still got it to work, but i had to use synaptic to remove every ounce of the old drivers and then use the driver given to me from ati itself. i couldnt find one for the rage 128 pro [01:57] excellent, CavalierPrime, I'll check them all out. Thanks again. [01:57] np [01:57] Anyone out there having issues with their audio? [01:57] aquachica: hah! [01:57] hylian, So whcih would be the best way on how to know the driver I need? [01:58] Jester05: conky [01:58] hylian, Because trial is not the best solution :P [01:58] man, i'm copying 185gigs of data from one esata to another.. freaking takes forever (~4hrs).. <15mbs :( [01:58] tampel: At least with Karmic. [01:59] aquachica: my humble impression is: "lots and lots" with karmic [01:59] cedriczg, i am not certain, i am studying that problem now. i did read about a ati rage mobility driver that is supposed to drive the rage pro as well, brb [01:59] trampel: Karmic is just bad karma for Ubuntu. [01:59] hylian, Thanks a lot for your support. I appreciate it [02:00] aquachica: it's not been apparently 'stellar', no [02:00] hylian, I have been researching on my own. And I finnlay got here, as I supposed I would find someone like you to help me ;) [02:00] hello! i just added medibuntu to the repos, now how can i install them hehe? [02:00] I just upgraded to Karmic and now all of my videos look like they have the red and blue channels swapped [02:00] any ideas? [02:00] I've tried it in totem and mplayer [02:01] trampel: All I wanted to do was get the newest version of Firefox. You would think that you could update particular software in the OS. [02:01] try VLC and try new codecs [02:01] that's all the comes to mind... [02:01] Ceriand: have you installed the restricted extras? [02:01] It goes away if I use gstreamer-properties and diable Xv [02:01] but uses a ton of CPU === ethernet_ is now known as EtherNet- [02:02] as will said you're probably missing some codecs [02:02] I'm using the nvidia binary driver [02:02] it plays fine [02:02] /ns identify bigbluehouse [02:02] the colors are just swapped [02:02] aquachica: well... some of us have being trying out firefox beta 3.5.5pre for some time. but karmic did have some positive promise...

[02:09] how do find the logs from the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10? [02:09] millertimk1a2m3, you are updating, i am assuming, and one of those was installed, probably without your conecnt by synaptic or apt-get, or the install process. [02:10] omg i had no idea.. EMF wasn't necessary [02:10] I have a sucky SiS671 video card. I'm going to buy a Nvidia 9400GT card. Is Ubuntu compatible with having 2 graphic cards at once?

I unistall it and delete the folders in usr/lib/firefox but when I install it again all the plugins remain there and also all the bugs, it is really messed up and need a clean install [02:10] Has anyone else had any problems with webpages not loading the defualt version of firefox on 9.10 [02:11] Question: I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on a Dell b130 laptop, wired ethernet works but wiress does not. I'm new to linux but I did lspci -v into the terminal and from what it says the wireless controller is "Broadcom Corp BCM4318 [Airforce One 54g]", where can I go from here? Thanks [02:11] now if i want to remove one, wht to do? [02:11] *wireless [02:11] YES [02:11] ok [02:11] trampel: I guess the being a WinXP user instills the need to wanting to go back. Hahaha. ^_^ [02:11] THERE WE GO [02:12] G226: driver manager [02:12] I have a tough question. If I activate the NVIDIA drivers on my copy of Ubuntu 9.04, my monitor will say it is out of range. I have to plug in a crappy old monitor and deactivate the nvidia drivers to see my screen again. How can I prevent the NVIDIA drivers from using any other refresh rate then 60 hrz? [02:12] what's the command for driver manager? [02:12] there isn't one, [02:12] (xubuntu, maybe it's a gnome thing) [02:12] aquachica: given that, we will weep for the lost soul [02:12] G226: do you have anything for it in sys/admin/hardware drivers? [02:12] that I know of... [02:12] lol [02:12] * aishumoorthy I hav ubuntu 9.04 and BOSS installed in my system, bt now i want to remove BOSS, so how to do it...?

[02:13] hi, does anyone here using 9.10 has a problem with controlling flash video? [02:13] my synaptics touchpad is broken in 9.10 [02:13] Will_Stout: IndyGunFreak, System --> Administration --> Hardware drivers? It says Broadcom B43 Wireless Driver, but not activated, I'm guessing activate it? [02:13] i am a die hard ubuntu fan, and even i think of going back to windows, all my drivers work, all the time. all my software works, all the time. and i had to downgrade from a spanktastical gfx card to a nvidia 6200 just so i could have ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10. But i do love ubuntu [02:13] I've always had trouble with flash lol [02:13] HELLO? [02:13] G226: probably a good idea [02:13] urgh [02:13] G226: YES [02:13] hello mikery [02:13] lol [02:13] mikeru, hello [02:14] name a good random game for ubuntu [02:14] G226: also, after that, in a terminal (assuming you have gnome, if not ignore this) sudo apt-get install gnome-network-manager [02:14] Yo: Second Life. [02:14] This might be a stupid question, but I can't access my other partition from command line, can I? [02:14] Will_Stout: isn't gnome-network-manager already installed? [02:14] incuye, why not? [02:14] incluye: you should be able to if its mounted [02:14] hylian: lol. but, can you answer the question=?? I don't want to spend money on it if it isn't going to work with ubuntu.... [02:14] Indygun: not in mine [02:14] incluye: you will have to mount it [02:15] Would it be bad form to offer $5 for support on getting my Nvidia Drivers to function? [02:15] mikeru, i am sorry, didn't catch ur question [02:15] fdisk -l will show you all your partitions [02:15] aha! [02:15] I can. [02:15] hmm [02:15] I have a sucky SiS671 video card. I'm going to buy a Nvidia 9400GT card. Is Ubuntu compatible with having 2 graphic cards at once? Or will it choose the integrated, sucky SIS?

[02:16] IndyGunFreak / Will_Stout: Thanks, Activating it now. It was empty earlier but I looked around and installed "bcmwl-kernel-source" because Hardware Drivers manager was empty. Will_Stout I'm using Ubuntu 9.10, I see it has "NetworkManager Applet 0.7.996" in the top right bar already, still do the install of gnome-network manager? [02:16] mikeru, not that any of that matters, let me take a look, brb [02:16] aishumoorthy: still on removing debs ? [02:16] more simply, just looking for the location of the Kernel Source that I installed [02:16] G226: u shouldn't need to do that === tj83__ is now known as tj83_away [02:16] G226: if is not installed yes [02:17] lol [02:17] G226: assuming you have have Gnome... [02:17] Will_Stout: It's the default i386 install from the ubuntu website of 9.10, it has gnome by default I guess? [02:17] hi , anyone know why i couldnt boot into initrd.img-2.6.31-302-ec2, but i could boot into initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic. i've just upgraded from ubuntu 9.04 to ubuntu 9.10. the error shows: "error: please boot the kernel first" [02:17] randomusr: go to Places > Search for files [02:17] mikeru, this might help: http://rmarcus.wordpress.com/2009/02/02/ubuntu-with-two-graphics-cards/ [02:18] Will_Stout: YEs it has gnome I remember seeing the sessions: Gnome on the login screen [02:18] randomusr: then select "file system" and type the name or part of it [02:18] mikeru: ubuntu ignores my built-in SiS when the montiter isn't hooked up toit, and used my nvidia [02:18] G226: yes, gnome is the default, but given all the flavors of Ubuntu, I stay safe.. [02:18] Can any one help me to force my NVIDIA graphics card to use 60 mhz as its refresh rate? [02:18] When editing the smb.cfg how do you assign different permmissions to different users [02:18] hylian: LikeNoWay: thanks! [02:18] G226: so yea, make sure that network manager is in there, I spent the better part of 2 days meddling cause it wasn't there... [02:18] Hello... I am using the newest ubuntu release and I just wanted to know if anyone would have any idea why i have such problems with flash on this computer. I have AMD 3200+ Geforce 6800GT , 512 RAM, Western Digital 120GB harddisk. I also have Ubuntu running on my laptop which is an hp compaq 6715s and it the flash works alot better on it, thx for the help! [02:18] mikeru: when I have a monitor hooked up to both, they both work [02:18] mikeru, i don't think i helped much, but your welcome [02:19] I'm trying to install 9.10 and the graphical installer is not showing my HardDrive. If I boot into the live disk and look in gparted it shows. Any Ideas? [02:19] Death to windows... Time to shut the old windows hard drive down for a long time I hope... night night sweet prince... [02:19] Anyone here ever work with proc files and a module. Why does it take so long for messages to appear in dmesg after you feed data into a proc file? I just have a module that reads the data and printk's. Seems like there's a huge delay. [02:19] LikeNoWay : ) [02:19] Can anyone help me to get my touchpad working? [02:19] Will_Stout: Okay, it works now after enabling those drivers in hardware manager then restarting, thank you. Is there anything else I should do, I don't need anything special for laptop fans or anything? [02:19] abysso: correct graphics driver installed ? [02:19] CavalierPrime, I'm doing that but no luck. Synaptic however, says it's installed [02:20] ?? [02:20] G226: Nope, welcome to heaven, er up Ubuntu [02:20] DasEi: yes [02:20] G226: long as everything else works, you've got your graphics drivers (if that applies) its the good life [02:20] Do Gigabyte-branded Nvidia cards work with the Nvidia driver??? [02:20] Will_Stout / IndyGunFreak: Thanks [02:20] abysso: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [02:20] DasEi: I've been using ubuntu now for almost 2 years with this computer and I dont seem to understand why it's just this computer that has major problems [02:20] When editing the smb.cfg how do you assign different permmissions to different users [02:21] what is the initial login to UEC .. i tried the initial login to the web interface admin/admin and that did not work.. where can I get some help? [02:21] Can anyone help me to get my touchpad working? [02:21] Ollonk: has it worked before? [02:21] WIll_stout: I'm pretty sure its just a integrated intel card on this laptop so nothing special [02:21] It's incorrectly recognized as a "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" [02:21] Ollonk : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad [02:21] it worked in 8.10 and 9.04 [02:21] randomusr: look under Applications or maybe Applications > Other and see if it made the menu [02:21] Have you tried that link? [02:21] no [02:22] Ollonk: Try that link. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad It is the documentation for the Touchpad from Ubuntu Support. It may help you. [02:22] DasEi: yeah i've installed them [02:22] mikeru, they should. there is a debate in the pc world about which drivers are best, the ones rubber stamped by ati/nvidia, or the ones made by the manufacturer of your card, that may or may not have been tweaked just for your card, but in linux, your pretty much stuck with the vanilla www.ati,com or nvidia.com drivers [02:22] Ollonk: apt-get install gsynaptic [02:22] CavalierPrime, ok but this is the most perplexing thing I've ever seen in the file system [02:22] This is an issue with Karmic [02:22] I'm trying to install 9.10 and the graphical installer is not showing my HardDrive. If I boot into the live disk and look in gparted it shows. Any Ideas? [02:22] SLES11 is going to drop heartbeat (in favor for openais/pacemaker) is ubuntu going to do it the same? [02:22] DasEi: could it be that I should have more ram than 512? [02:22] CavalierPrime, no luck [02:22] i'm using kubuntu ...when i plug my huwei technology 3g modem to it, most of the system freezes and it shows up a cdrom device but no modem....when i use ubuntu it shows the modem but not the cdrom device.. in windows i see it showing both cdrom device and modem. [02:23] Ollonk: try gsynaptic, if that fails, reboot to recovery console and rebuild damaged packages... the rebuild is an odd one, but it occasionally does the trick [02:23] CavalierPrime, it's prolly user error, but synaptic is making me nuts when it says it's installed [02:23] randomusr: go to Places > Home and see if you have a folder there for it [02:23] yeah I'm installing gsynaptic [02:23] hylian: but they do work with the normal nvidia one, righT? [02:23] i have a little problem make me sick , the theme dust sand in ubuntu9.10 make the applecations places system etc bold , i don't like bold font , can i change it to regular? how? [02:23] "Note, selecting synaptic instead of gsynaptic [02:23] synaptic is already the newest version. [02:23] " [02:23] CavalierPrime, not so much [02:23] Any one know how to activate the Nvidia drivers and force it to load in 60 hrz as the resolution? If my monitor isn't run at 60hrz, it wont work. [02:24] randomusr: try to reinstall with Synaptic is my guess then [02:24] CavalierPrime, I should mention using 9.04 [02:24] CavalierPrime, will do [02:24] Ollonk: either of those should help... oddly, last year my problem was a power adapter, somehow corrupted my touch pad drivers (its the only thing that makes any sense) [02:24] anyone use empathy as their irc client? [02:24] Ollonk: have you gone into system->preferences->mouse? there is a tab there that i had to play with to get scrolling to work on the touchpad [02:24] Lakota: you need to modify your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, or alternately use nvidia-settings(note this must be run as gksu) [02:24] I upgraded to Karmic today [02:24] mikeru, as far as i know. the best way to find out is to go to nvidia.com, go into there drivers section, and choose linux as your os, but, if 9.10 or 9,04 isn't listed, and it's an older card they may not work, let me take a look, brb [02:24] yes [02:25] CavalierPrime, linux-source-2.6.28 is what I want to compile? [02:25] It worked before I upgraded to Karmic and now it doesn't [02:25] can anyone help me out here? I was using Karmic beta and did an update but I can't tell if I'm updated to the final release. how can I tell? [02:25] i just reinstalled grub. How can I be sure it is looking in the right partitions to boot? [02:25] abysso: could check by htop or systemmonitor, but should work [02:25] Verdugo: uname -a [02:25] randomusr: yeah [02:25] mikeru, what was you gfx card again? [02:25] GF9400GT [02:25] hello. i like to use my ubuntu text mode. how can i make the terminal 1280x1024. like a framebuffer text console or what they call it === erkules_ is now known as erkules [02:25] by Gigabyte [02:26] abysso: your /var/log/Xorg.0.log produces no significant error ? [02:26] hylian: all that above [02:26] robdig, my touchpad doesn't work period. [02:26] aishumoorthy: ? [02:26] i need help [02:26] It was working fine (this morning) when I was on jaunty [02:26] doesn't do anything in karmic [02:26] cambazz: click Ctrl+Alt+F2? [02:26] i have a little problem make me sick , the theme dust sand in ubuntu9.10 make the applecations places system etc bold , i don't like bold font , can i change it to regular? how? === john is now known as Guest56537 [02:26] Ollonk: hmm. there is an enable/disable switch in system->preferences->touchpad. had trouble with mine too when i upgraded this morning, but is working now [02:26] William-Ubuntu: just customize your theme [02:27] Ollonk: we use computers, they're the only thing on Earth that can defy the laws of physics [02:27] lol [02:27] I still <3 linux [02:27] William-Ubuntu System > Preferences > Appearance [02:27] does anyone know if you have to use "both" '/usr/sbin/services' and 'initctl' to control services in karmic [02:27] been using it for about a year now [02:27] Will_Stout: How do computer break the laws of physics? [02:27] hi [02:27] how can i setup program or games ended tar.gz for ubuntu [02:27] also crap [02:27] edbian: they break when all evidence says they should not [02:27] does anyone know if the wine for ubuntu 9.10 works good with cs:s? [02:28] ayman gunzip the file. [02:28] Will_Stout: ha ha [02:28] I'm in Xubuntu there is no "system>preferences>touchpad" [02:28] then untar [02:28] !packages | ayman [02:28] ayman: You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search ", 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! [02:28] DasEi: nope no errors... but aint it a bit weird that when I only have the terminal open with irssi my cup usage is about 40 % [02:28] it doesn't work [02:28] Ollonk: on my second year, first year it was off/on then Vista finally pushed my last button and now runs on just 2 pc's here, rest Ubuntu [02:28] Tyler_3d: what it have me back was 2.6.31-14-generic & a date of Fri Oct 16 [02:28] Ollonk: ok, sorry, can't help. i have gnome [02:28] CavalierPrime, when I look at details under the synaptic install, it says: Setting up FileName [02:28] my hardware is too terrible for XP [02:28] the speed difference in Xubuntu and XP sold me [02:28] Ollonk: system preferences > synaptic ? [02:28] Verdugo: do lsb_release -r [02:29] CavalierPrime, does that mean a software/hardware issue? [02:29] cuz it's hanging [02:29] Ollonk: battery, running Ubuntu studio my bat lasts practically hours over win. [02:29] ubottu i cant fid this pro or game in snyptic [02:29] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [02:29] randomusr: i would guess software, but only a guess [02:29] abysso: yes, use top/htop to see what eats it up [02:29] damn [02:30] because its anew v of pro and i needed to setup old v [02:30] I'm going to go INSANE if my mce takes any longer to fetch this blooty update... [02:30] CavalierPrime, what steps should I take to troubleshoot? [02:30] mikeru, i found it, and i am using the same driver. it does work. but i am not a hard core gamer, so maybe you should ask someone if they have had a performance hit on it. also i recommend using synaptic to install the python opengl stuff [02:30] Will_Stout, my battery lasts less than an hour, regardless [02:30] ayman: extract the files from the archive and read the instructions withing [02:30] ayman: within* [02:30] William-Ubuntu: this is determined by your application font if you right-click on the desktop and go to cahnge desktop background, then change this setting in there, this will change the menu fonts as well as the application fonts. [02:30] Tyler_3d: it gave back '9.10' [02:31] Verdugo: then you are good :) [02:31] hylian: okk... [02:31] ayman: tar xvf .tar.gz in the console then cd name-of-program then ./configure make sudo make install [02:31] I'll be back in a couple minutes guys [02:31] hey, anyone know how to abort the CLI upgrade? [02:31] trying a fix [02:31] I'mm putting this off til' tomorrow.. [02:31] Will_Stout: how far have you got? [02:31] unknown, [02:31] it won't tell me! === tyler_d3 is now known as tyler_d [02:31] mikeru, sorry, i am a tech head, too much time reading manuals and stuff to play video games, besides the solitaire everyonce in a while [02:31] ok thanks all [02:32] Jken: forced to run via console as I haven't fixed graphics yet... [02:32] Will_Stout: well, what is it doing? Still downloading packages? [02:32] Tyler_3d: thanks for your help! [02:32] abysso: htop lets you sort your processes by F6 , so can priorise for mem or cpu load, also can use conky to see if mem is the reason for flash not being good; what exactly happens if you try to play youtube ? [02:32] Verdugo: np [02:32] jken: yes, but I don't trust my cats to leave this PC run safely during the night... [02:32] mikeru, wait, my buddy ben has that same gfx card i have and is playing the elder scrolls 4 oblivion just fine on 9.04. [02:32] Jken: given that they have done some...... sick/gross things to it, I don't even trusts its PSU... [02:33] how long should it take for synaptic to finish installing linux-source-2.6.28? [02:33] Will_Stout: if it's not finished downloading, you can safely hit ctrl-c and start it again another time. [02:33] yet, it remains to soldier on... [02:33] thank-you! [02:33] where did inittab go in jaunty and karmic? [02:33] randomusr: too many random factors/variables to say with any sort of accuracy [02:33] another question... dmidecode says my motherboard is an ECS 671T-M, yet it says that it has a 478 socket. ECS' website says that motherboard has a LGA775. which should I believe? [02:33] hylian: thanks! [02:33] tyler_d I noticed [02:33] anyone had problems with the latest nvidia driver and 9.10? seems re-draw is VERY slow - also VERY slow file transfers.... [02:34] Did anyone try wubi , when I run it ( downloaded from internet) , it asks me for a Ubuntu disk , shucks [02:34] okay [02:34] mikeru: the website [02:34] so apparently the driver isn't loaded [02:34] mikeru, your mobo company, unless you manages to get the label for it wrong, which i doubt..., hmm. there's gotta be a way to test it, [02:35] DasEi: /usr/bind/X :0 -verbose -auth /var/run/gdm/auth-for-gdm-uYzVir/database -nolisten tcp vt7 is eating cpu as hell [02:35] name a good random game for ubuntu [02:35] DasEi: 40 % [02:35] yo: tremulous [02:35] mikeru: what exactly do you need to know?for what purpose? [02:35] hylian: well, it currently has a crappy 15 [02:35] !who |Ollonk [02:35] Ollonk: 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 :) [02:35] 1.5 celeron [02:35] tyler_d, generally speaking, these things don't take long on a core two duo with 4 gb of ram. I wonder if I'm missing a package, or if it's a permissions problem and won't install unless I'm root or some junk [02:35] edbian, already have it [02:35] i need a link to ubuntu tweak i love to download it please help me [02:35] anyone got a quick procedure for reodering the grub 2 menu? [02:35] hi. is there any way to install moblin on top of ubuntu 9.10? [02:35] yet in the website they do say celerons are supported, along with core 2 duos... [02:35] Chris01341: if you do, please pas it on. [02:35] is SELinux enabled by default in Jaunty? [02:36] Will_Stout, no driver loaded for synaptics touchpad [02:36] randomusr: I would say thats a good assumption, shouldn't be that long? is it still listed as a 'nice' process? is it hung? wahts it saying? [02:36] not recognized [02:36] amitu: I think you're a little confused. Moblin is an entire other linux distrobution. You can't install one OS "on top" of another unless you count virtualizing [02:36] dose anyone now how to get ubuntu tweak to download [02:36] Ollonk: reboot, recovery mode, dpkg (I think) > rebuild damaged packages [02:36] k [02:36] I'm learnin, gotta create a file in /etc/grub.d, no luck yet. [02:37] Ollonk: that's what I had to do last time mine didn't read out right... [02:37] umm···1.6ghz [02:37] I just updated to karmic, but my kernel was never updated [02:37] my buddy says killing x can do the same thing as recovery mode [02:37] so I'll try that first [02:37] hi [02:37] bbl [02:37] mikeru, i run a computer company in wisconsin. crappy is only crappy when it doesn't do what you want. i don't believe in the whole hype of "it's outdated". i have women who do nothing but send emails to their children and are quite happy with 1 ghz proc or less, and dial up [02:37] Ollonk: it won't... [02:37] Blizzerand: why not just install ubuntu normally?.. there's enough problems w/ Karmic, I wouldn't want it made worse with wubi. [02:37] Chris01341: just sudo gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg [02:37] tyler_d, it doesn't say anything about being hung or "nice process" what tools could I use to pin it down? top maybe?> [02:37] Ollonk: not quite anyway... [02:37] and now I get warnings like "W: Unable to locate package linux-2.6.28" [02:37] what about ubuntu moblin remix? [02:37] i only want to soy thank you, for the help, now i can install ubuntu 9.10 in my hp pavilion dv2000 without problem [02:37] hylian: okok, crappy for me then. 1.6 ghz celeron === Strife1989 is now known as Strife89 [02:38] amitu: Never heard of it. Sounds like that's what your'e looking for though! [02:38] DasEi: sry to bother you but did u read what I just wrote? === PC|Away is now known as PacketCollision [02:38] you cant edit the cfg file, it is generated at each boot [02:38] where is the ubuntu 9.10 default wallpaper stored? [02:38] IndyFreak: Wubi is useful where you can't wipe... albeit 64bit + wubi = hell [02:38] IndyGunFreak : I need the *screenshot* to write an article . I already have the disk but that is not what I am looking for [02:38] abysso: yes, seems to be a problem with gdm [02:38] mikeru, :) yeah, i do a lot of virtual machinery, so i have a dual core 4.8 with 4 gigs of ram. there are way better machines than that. [02:38] you can edit the file, it has all the entries in it [02:38] abysso: sudo apt-get install pastebinit [02:39] tyler_d, keep in mind I'm looking at the details from synaptic. Maybe I should try installing from command line with some sort of automatically install dependancies switch? [02:39] grub.cfg took the place of menu.1st in grub2 [02:39] abysso: pastebinit /var/log/syslog [02:39] randomusr: If you use apt-get or synaptic they automatically have dependency handeling. That's the whole point of the package manager === Jaredu is now known as Jaredu_Partying [02:40] hello. what happened to /boot/grub/menu.lst [02:40] edbian, then how to install as root? I thought that was automatic too [02:40] mikeru, i guess the answer to your question is yes. i have 9.04 on a 500mhz with 512 megs ram. it's for my nephews to hammer on. i think you machine will do fine [02:40] it seems there is no such file [02:40] grub.cfg did take the place but is created anew at each boot, based on script files; some of which are in /etc/grub.d [02:40] randomusr: "sudo apt-get install " [02:40] Chris01341: check this out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [02:40] abysso: give url from terminal here [02:40] synaptic has been setting up for the last ten minutes [02:41] randomusr: That is the command to install some package. It works as root and it resolves dependencies. [02:41] edbian, that's what I figured. I'll try it [02:41] thanks, i'll see if that anything i've not read yet [02:41] hi folks, after upgrade i'm not seeing application icons in the upper-left of every application; instead i see a generic grey circle, instead of the x-chat icon for the x-chat window, firefox icon for firefox, etc.; googling hasn't revealed anything specific so far and i just skimmed the release notes and didn't see it, any ideas? [02:41] DasEi: http://pastebin.com/f7ce6deb5 [02:41] Hello all, Empathy broken? [02:41] if anyone can link me to a bug report or give me a good search query for this issue i'd appreciate that too; like i said, i've searched around a fair bit already and haven't found anything [02:41] well all, i am beat, gonna hit the hay, goodbye [02:41] i'm thinking it's some sort of corrupt icon cache or something, but i have no idea where to go with this issue [02:41] Spoom: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. === PacketCollision is now known as PC|Away [02:41] godstar: no, it just sucks [02:42] So, I came in here to get help figuring out why my swap wasn't working, and then while gathering data for pastebin, it started working... [02:42] Spoom recheck your installation media ? [02:42] IndyGunFreak: I am getting Segmentation fault (core dumped) when I run it from black. [02:42] LikeNoWay: Just cause the swap isn't being used doesn't mean it wasn't working ;) [02:42] should i use ext3 or ext4 for a desktop? [02:42] Chris01341: well i want to change the vga mode of my console. what do i need to do. [02:43] Why is it that sometimes when I click a button in Nautilus, everything just hangs for like 2 seconds? And its not just nautilus, a few other apps too : [02:43] *:( [02:43] And it just happened again with XChat >:( [02:43] edbian, why would that command return couldn't find package, but it's found by synaptic? [02:43] is anyone else having 'Capabilities Mismatch' with Ubuntu One? [02:43] typed it correctly [02:44] RPG_Master: you have destop effects turned on? [02:44] * mikeru has capabilites mismatch with ubuntu one. [02:44] on the live cd, seems sweet so far except I'm used to pidgin :/ [02:44] randomusr: It shouldn't. It might be a typo or you have to run "sudo apt-get update" [02:44] randomusr: Which will update the package list for apt [02:44] hi [02:44] ubuntutest2: i think empathy sucks, but obviously, thats all in the eye of the beholder.. you can get pidgin w/ apt-get [02:44] Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/n/nvidia-graphics-drivers-173/nvidia-glx-173_173.14.20-0ubuntu4_i386.deb 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.134 80] [02:45] abysso: pastebinit /etc/resolv.conf [02:45] CavalierPrime: Yep [02:45] hello i have an issue with karmic : my wireless card is detected but i cannot see any network, the status shows disconnected. on aspire one. any idea? [02:45] anyone else unable to get the nvidia driver? [02:45] RPG_Master: try turning them off and see what happens [02:45] ok [02:46] IndyGunFreak: Looks like theres a bug report already underway for the Empathy prob, I'm having. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/423316 [02:46] DasEi: http://pastebin.com/f1af381f2 [02:46] hello i have an issue with karmic : my wireless card is detected but i cannot see any network, the status shows disconnected. on aspire one. any idea? [02:46] godstar: well, like i siad, it sucks.. :) [02:47] ekianjo: what wireless device? [02:47] its atheros - internal chip - [02:47] ekianjo: well, there's a lot of atheros chipsets, which one [02:47] edbian, done. it says it's already the newest version. Where the hell is it? [02:48] randomusr: What's the package? [02:48] let me check [02:48] linux-source-2.6.28 [02:48] indygunfreak is there a command in terminal to find the model ? [02:48] randomusr: Not every package shows up in the menus. Linux-source? Are you trying to get source code? [02:48] hello, can anybody please tell me how to include an option in grub2 in Ubuntu to boot into freebsd [02:48] CavalierPrime: Hey, no more hanging :D [02:48] ekianjo: lspci will show it i'd imagine [02:48] for now... [02:48] RPG_Master cool [02:49] kioko: use apt , nvidia-glx-173 [02:49] edbian, you are correct sir [02:49] ekianjo: lspci and dmidcode [02:49] CavalierPrime: Spoke too soon :( [02:49] doh [02:49] RPG_Master your window manager set to metacity? [02:49] yo hello! after upgrading to karmic the avi files dont play anymore [02:49] RPG_Master: Yep [02:50] any idea ? [02:50] indygunfreak is AR5001 atheros [02:50] i've a acer aspire 5536 is there a way to make the touchpad work? [02:50] Fire^fox, hello! [02:50] hmmm [02:50] randomusr: "apt-get source " returns source files. You have to put the terminal in a place you want the files to drop though. For example first "cd /home//Desktop" then "apt-get source DasEi: anything? [02:50] in ubuntu 9.10 [02:50] yo, hello [02:50] ekianjo: are you using 32 or 64bit?.. i have that same device and it works out of the box, nothing required [02:50] abysso: looks like some corrupt dns entries, does the lappi connect in the same way ? [02:50] randomusr: You shouldn't be root to download source files because then you can only edit them as root. [02:50] the new nvidia driver was really slowing down my machine -- flopped (full loss of processing) back to previous version - also large file transfers are VERY slow [02:50] RPG_Master how much mem you got? [02:50] indygunfreak, 32 bits [02:50] CavalierPrime: 3gigs :/ [02:50] 8gb [02:51] abysso: yes [02:51] yo, any idea ? [02:51] does anyone know why i a cant pause and seek youtube vids [02:51] ekianjo: hmm, thats odd. [02:51] abysso: the lappi is also assigned by dhcp ? no dns-config done ? [02:51] Fire^fox: sometimes you have to reinstall stuff. Start with www.medibuntu.org [02:52] edbian, that's lame but it seems to be working now.... who's idea was that? [02:52] Fire^fox, try downoading VLC [02:52] developers, developers, developers [02:52] RPG_Master you could try a memtest on the grub menu to check your mem [02:52] indygunfreak any idea if software i installed made it wrong somehow? [02:52] randomusr: I don't know. However invented the apt-get program. [02:52] randomusr: What's lame about it? [02:52] yo, i tried to reinstall all codecs but nothing [02:52] abysso: all automatic [02:52] ekianjo: i wouldn't think so, have you installed anything weird? [02:52] randomusr: *whoever [02:52] CavalierPrime: What does that do? [02:52] seems more realistic - on nvidia 185 running glxgears was getting 10,000 fps - on old driver 8200 but seems MUCH more stable. [02:52] DasEi: it's default [02:52] tests your ram to make sure it is good [02:52] Fire^fox, maybe the avi file is corrupted? [02:53] godstar, allready done [02:53] edbian, personal preference, i think it should be auto correcting and search source packages proper, but oh well. I'm not a programmer === Blizzerand_ is now known as Wikifer [02:53] yo, no because with jaunty was woking [02:53] where does Ubuntu keep the script that runs swapon at boot time? In Red Hat Linux it is /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit but what is it in Ubuntu? [02:53] Is ubuntu 9.10 buggy [02:53] indygunfreak, check your private msg [02:53] ekianjo: i deny them by default [02:53] Hi, any update on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1302069 ? [02:53] ah ok - [02:53] abysso: looks little strange (resolv.conf), maybe compare that to the lappi, else try reinstalling gdm, as I can't find what causes it [02:53] Fire^fox, I dont know, sorry [02:54] yo, ok thanks [02:54] Wikifer: upgrading seems to be problematic for some... i did clean installs, and had no probl [02:54] IndyGunFreak anything i can do to at least find out the issue ? any diagnostic tool ? [02:54] Wikifer: I had issues with the nivida driver - I went back to the previous version -and it seems stable [02:54] randomusr: I don't understand what you mean. What isn't automatic? You can use "apt-get search " to search for packages and "apt-get show " to see descriptions [02:54] edbian, using sudo apt-get sources PackageName failed on dpkg-dev or some junk [02:54] CavalierPrime: Wait, RAM can go "Bad"? [02:54] DasEi: okey thank you anyway for you help [02:54] Fire^fox: did you reinstall restricted extras, and gstreamer packages? Also you may want to try to install Mplayer.

[02:55] IndyGunFreak - madwifi drivers work on karmic ? in jaunty they didnt work for me at all [02:55] is there a Ubutu 'network/route' channel? [02:55] is it bad if on a fresh 9.10 install ./configure doesn't exist? [02:55] what is a good scanner to scan the file system for virus' in linux? need to find both windows and linux viruss [02:55] hanasaki: avg [02:55] yea avg [02:55] ekianjo: i don't know, was just suggesting to have a look.. did the device work on the 9.10 live cd?.. or did you upgrade [02:56] godstar, with what you want the gstream is missing seems so.. but it's there [02:56] Blue1: free? [02:56] Tophu: what do you mean ./configure doesn't exist? what package? [02:56] hanasaki: yes [02:56] hanasak: i use ClamTK [02:56] Tophu: you try to compile ? [02:56] Blue1: realtime scanner on file access? [02:56] Tophu: what program? [02:56] also ClamAV LiveCD www.volitileminds.net [02:56] hanasaki: I don't know I have NEVER run a/v software on linux [02:56] I've been having audio issues on 9.04 and 9.10. ( 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller ) There is a serious amount of static in the output, louder than the output itself (which can be heard). Audio works fine on Windows and on Haiku. Running 9.10 now. [02:56] IndyGunFreak actually i didn an upgrade at first but it screwed my system so i did a fresh 9.10 install after [02:57] correction volatileminds.net [02:57] Blue1 umm that's a good idea? [02:57] abysso: and again, what exactly does flash do / not do ? [02:57] someone asked me something I did not see what he/she said! ? :) [02:57] hanasaki: really not needed in Linux - linux is immune to windows virii - [02:57] ekianjo: but did your wireless work on the live cd? [02:57] IndyGunFreak not sure whether the wireless worked out of the box, i stayed wired to reinstall all the softs i wanted first and that only after that i noticed i did not have wireless anymore [02:57] hanasaki: well unless you use wine... [02:57] DasEi: well I think we kinda moved away from flash because this was a new problem that my cpu was using 40 % as idle [02:58] ? [02:58] Blue1: true.. excepto for wine and it's a carrioer if you use samba and linux does have its own virus [02:58] hanasaki: even then it's still isolated to wine... [02:58] how do i uninstall php myadmin [02:58] Fire^fox: not sure, KK seams buggier than other distros. Fact, I had to reboot my cpu twice in order to login not using failsafe gnome. In your situation, I have gone as far as reinstalling gnome desktop if all else fails, with some luck. [02:58] in swat I am getting winbindd: not running under status should I be alarmed [02:58] Anyone know of a good sidebar for resources...etc? [02:58] IndyGunFreak so you are saying i should try again the live cd and see if it works ? [02:58] can somebody help me with making a bot in python [02:58] how does one reboot a CPU? [02:58] ekianjo: yes, boot the live CD, for 9.10.. and see if you have wireless [02:58] hanasaki: I do NOT know of any native linux virii - they prolly exist - but I can't name one off the top of my head... [02:58] godstar, maybe i fond there is a bug in a lib [02:58] ionut: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=uninstall+phpmyadmin [02:58] sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin [02:59] !ot | rance94 [02:59] rance94: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [02:59] abysso: and again, what exactly does flash do / not do ? what abou mem ? a ~2000 ahlon is big enough still [02:59] IndyGunFreak ok let me try that first ill come back here later [02:59] Blue1: rookits? [02:59] Fire^fox: maybe. All audio/video good here so far. [02:59] well I was trying to walk through a post on the forums to get my ntrig touchscreen on my hp touchsmart tx2z working and it had me download some .h file or something and to ./configure --enable-wacom --prefix=/usr [02:59] (complain) why is it,when you want to install some low level package, there's always a dependency/permissions/package issue? [02:59] hanasaki: yes only way to corrupt linux - but I've had no problems [02:59] and I get an error when I run that [02:59] hanasaki, a virus can't run by itself under wine, you'd have to launch it every time you boot for it to be present [02:59] is it possible to have evolution calendar show the phase of the moon? [02:59] i havent ran into dependency hell in several years [03:00] joustin: I ran into several on 9.04 [03:00] mjbrooks: and Blue1 thanks... ya I need to scan in / out email and also scan the samba based files [03:00] DasEi: well on some sites where flash is enabled it gets extremely slow [03:00] does anyone know how to fix a device that's trying to use the wrong driver? [03:00] hanasaki: look at avg thenn.. [03:00] its not in the repos Blue1 [03:00] I get Bash: ./confifure: no such file or directory [03:00] godstar, libx264-67 is bugged need to downgrade [03:00] there is clamavis? [03:00] blacklist the driver [03:00] I just upgraded to karmic and my touchpad has been incorrectly identified [03:00] hanasaki: no google it... [03:01] abysso: have conky run in parallel to see if the systems ressources [03:01] IndyGunFreak if live cd works for wifi what can i do to fix the issue ? [03:01] hanasaki, AVG is not open source and won't be available via the repos [03:01] Anyone? [03:01] All sorts of trouble with grub2 after 9.10 install [03:01] DasEi: conky hehe ? what is that ? :P [03:01] ekianjo: well, now that i don't know.. unless you went off doing some weird crap(blacklisting, or something like that), your wireless should work, cuz like i said, i have that same device, and its working fine for me [03:01] hanasaki: I use ClamAV to scan both Linux and Windows drives all the time [03:01] no configuration, etc.. i just choose a network and log in [03:01] Tophu: you can't run a configure script if there's no file there! Make sure you're in the right directory. [03:02] abysso: system monitor, sudo apt-get install conky && conky [03:02] CavalierPrime: thanks.. does it have a realtime checker on file access .. ? [03:02] IndyGunFreak no i did not do any blacklisting [03:02] hanasaki: unsure :P [03:02] hanasaki: http://free.avg.com/us-en/download?prd=afl [03:02] hanasaki, ClamAV does not do real time file access scanning [03:03] * hanasaki does prefer to stay w/ open source and free and something in the repository if possible [03:03] where's partimage in ubuntu karmic? aptitude can't find it [03:03] ekianjo: i'm not saying just blacklisting, i'm saying unless you installed something that disabled it somehow, its unlikely, but possible [03:03] hanasaki, put your virus scanners on your windows clients and scan nightly with clamav on the server [03:03] what's this mean? need to get 0B of source archives when trying to install linux-source-2.6.28? [03:03] is there a gui for file sharing in ubuntu [03:03] hanasaki: not always possible - I use nero for linux - and was happy to pay for it -- same interface in windows = zero learning curve -- AND it's documented....and has customer support... [03:03] @jken146: if I give you the lin kto the forum post can you tell me which folder I should be in? [03:03] mjbrooks: cron job?

[03:08] image that edbian, tyler_d, and CavalierPrime, it was user error. I now have the *.gz files for the kernel source [03:08] Hello everyone. [03:08] ok, i have a fresh 9.10 installation. no luck with my broadcom wireless [03:08] who knew [03:08] Tophu: you download it and then extract it. Make sure you're in the folder you extracted it to, and that there's a file called configure there. [03:08] hehe [03:08] como, odd... I'm seeing it. All you repos enabled? [03:08] my system has a synaptics touch pad recognized, but no synaptics driver loaded [03:08] Blue1: that is bakcup on scan? [03:08] anyone? [03:09] abysso: not too long, but let it sit, 1 min on a 6Mit conn. [03:09] HALP! accidentally removed the messaging menu from the karmic UNR statusbar, anyone know how to restore it? [03:09] i have an intel 3945abg, should i try that? [03:09] hanasaki: incremental daily backups [03:09] nice [03:09] Is it me or is Karmic a really bad version of Ubunut? [03:09] gotcha thanks I'll look for that [03:09] does someone have a good howto for setting up raid in 9.10 please? [03:09] I am still having issues with my sound. [03:09] not the clam scan though :) thank you very much it looks useful [03:09] blue1 I am new to rsync.... [03:09] aquachica: is it me or is ubuntu a really bad version of debian? ;D [03:09] aquachica: lots to learn, heh [03:09] mjbrooks: yes, main, restricted, universe, multiverse - do I need anything else? [03:09] aquachica: yeah seems like pulseaudio has a few glitches [03:09] !raid [03:09] Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [03:09] aquachica Karmic is awesome for me [03:09] hanasaki: me too! [03:09] aquachica: its you, it works fine for me on 3 machines [03:09] como, not that I can think of [03:10] 9.04 was wonderful. 9.10 has just been killing me today. [03:10] Blue1: pulse audio had glitches in 9.04 [03:10] DasEi: well I have 8MB [03:10] I upgraded, and I lost my wireless and sound. [03:10] All Karmic got me was a broken mouse and a bunch of errors on boot [03:10] IndyGunFreak: yeah but they seem magnified in 9.10 [03:10] IndyGunFreak: yours is anecdotal evidence, the hundreds of people in here over the past few days are statistical ;p === ben is now known as Guest72881 [03:10] not a faster boot at all [03:10] aquachica: I had horrible luck with 9.04. I'm hoping 9.10 is more stable. [03:10] DigitalKiwi: could just be experience to.. been around since 6.06 [03:10] Jaunty was epic for me === Guest72881 is now known as ben72881 [03:10] oh dear god I think I 'm recompiling the kernel :-( [03:10] Ollonk, jaunty was very good indeed [03:11] aquachica: Go to sound under system/preferences/sound. [03:11] 8.10 was the best so far for me. [03:11] but this is ridiculous [03:11] Cyrano_De: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart fixes a multitude of sinful coding errors [03:11] Cyrano_De: out on 8.10. 9.04 gave me issues with Abiword, but that was it. [03:11] hi [03:11] merma, know anything about drivers? [03:11] abysso: and your average downspeed on updates ? > 500k ? [03:11] Ollonk, what kind of drivers? [03:11] aquachica: abiword was stable for me in 9.04 [03:11] Tophu: no, you're just compiling the drivers I think [03:11] like forcing something to use a driver [03:11] I is scared .. someone hold me [03:11] Cyrano_De: 9.10 killed SCIM, wireless, and sound. [03:11] oh thank god [03:11] DasEi: hey m8 .. suddenly it stopped using all my cpu [03:11] anyone know much about UNR? [03:11] my synaptics touchpad isn't working since I "upgraded" to karmic [03:11] this is my 3rd attempt at ubuntu [03:11] DasEi: now it works like it should [03:12] been trying since aroung 7.1 [03:12] I am seriously thinking about downgrading. [03:12] Ollonk, try downloading gsynaptics [03:12] abysso: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [03:12] Blue1: restarting gdm was not always possible and is not a good solution for things that can not be run in screen. Say goodbye to any VM you had running and any data you had not saved. [03:12] I like it alot but I kept waiting for better touchscreen support and it looks like it's finally easy enough for me to set it up in one night ^_^ [03:12] I feel like is just bought Windows 7. [03:12] aquachica: I downgraded the video driver - and it's more stable [03:12] so I'm excited [03:12] I need to give permissions to virtualbox for accessing a partition, BUT udev keep reverting them [03:12] Ollonk, also you can modify xorg.conf to make it work if you're lucky [03:12] Haha... [03:12] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1230330 [03:12] DigitalKiwi: most fo the problems i've seen, seem to come from people upgrading... I did clean installs on all 3 machines, and they've worked flawlessly [03:13] Cyrano_De: sometimes that's the only way to fix things in 9.10 restarting x... [03:13] Blue1: I like the video driver on 9.10, but its these other things that I use that are really driving me nuts. [03:13] DasEi: but still "installing" conky.. [03:13] abysso: oo [03:13] don't know what to do, so please someone help me [03:13] ls [03:13] abysso: and your average downspeed on updates ? > 500k ? [03:13] does anyone know how to figure out if the version my computer using is 32bit or 64bit ? [03:13] aquachica: I was getting 10,000 fps on the latest video driver - but sometimes it would take like 20 seconds or longer to paint the screen [03:13] Blue1: So it has not improved any.... [03:13] how do i add programs to the notification-thing next to the clock? [03:13] kbp, uname -a [03:13] DasEi: no sry my bad it was already installed :) [03:13] Blue1: Wow.

[03:14] 汗 [03:14] Tophu, it dependes on what card do you have [03:14] empathy was there before but now it has it's own icon, and i want it back the way it was [03:14] 没有中国的？ [03:14] Tophu: some buy had an issue with ati drivers yesterday the solution seems to go to the ati site and get their driver...

[03:14] DasEi: no i just think i was stupid because when it said something about buffering I thought it was still installing but then I saw that it was on my desktop :) [03:14] it doesn't support the "old" ones [03:14] !cn | caoyi [03:14] caoyi: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [03:14] kbp: 32 bit [03:14] i686 [03:14] thank you guys :) [03:15] kbp: 32 bit [03:15] are there ati drivers out for 64 bit?

I lost it in the upgrade. [03:15] Ollonk: locate xorg.conf [03:15] abysso: k, update sys anyways and have conky paralell, then call flash and watch the output [03:16] Loafers: :( ! so what the heck is the way to od it now then? [03:16] DasEi: when i wanna start conky do I always have to start it in the terminal? [03:16] s/changing/reverting [03:16] aquachica, right click on the panel and press ADD [03:16] gummi: When I try t right click on the panel to add, it does not show it on the add options. :( [03:16] abysso: unless you create a starter, yes [03:16] hmm? [03:16] hanasaki, I don't know but I think you can install slim and change your rc file to use slim instead of gdm [03:16] how do i change which programs are shown in the notification-panel? [03:16] DasEi: ok np [03:16] slim? [03:16] Loafers: what do you use and why if I may ask? [03:16] gummi: Which is why I am really hating Karmic. Bad Karma! [03:16] indicator-applet* [03:16] abysso: /usr/bin/conky [03:17] abysso: you could also start it with alt-f2 [03:17] abysso: you could add it to startup applications and have it run when you boot [03:17] * Blue1 takes a break [03:17] well touch still isn't working but at least I didn't stop it from booting ^_^ [03:17] aquachica, as fame said, indicator-applet [03:17] :( [03:17] Doesn't seahorse have an option to store the passphrase on cache anymore?

I would also suggest you update from 8.10; since it's not a LTS release, there's no real point in being on it still. [03:18] I've upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 from 9.04 yesterday, when I open the trash folder it seems empty and keeps a loading mouse cursor for ever, I know the trash isn't empty so what could be the problem ? [03:18] Is it possible sKyZ's mirror doesn't have intrepid anymore? [03:19] Cyrano_De - So they are currently down?

[03:20] this thing worked perfectly in jaunty and 8.10 [03:20] MenZa, pipegeek could be right, just because it's still supported by canonical doesn't mean the person hosting the mirror has to mirror it [03:20] mjbrooks: I'd be very suprised if that were the case.

There is a serious amount of static in the output. The intended output can still be heard but is extremely faint in comparison.

This is installed on a dedicated server. [03:21] abysso: go to youtube and watch conky about your sys [03:21] well, i can't help w/ restoring it.. [03:21] sKyZ: one thing to check: go to "http:///ubuntu/dists" in a browser. is "intrepid" in the list of directories here? [03:21] Any ideas? [03:21] abe3k: where are you trying to access the trash, from the panel applet? [03:21] http://paste.ubuntu.com/306359/ [03:21] Ollonk, you need to add a touchpad section in your xorg.conf [03:21] MenZa: It's not me---it's sKyZ [03:21] UGH [03:21] IndyGunFreak : yes [03:21] I'm getting a very odd response when trying to run a bin file.

[03:24] IndyGunFreak : yup, I have two trashes ^^ [03:24] Will do. [03:24] wgrant: Intrepid is the most stable release in the last couple of years. [03:24] abe3k: well, that would probably cause a problem [03:24] I want to lean how to make those animated clips with sound that I get in text messages on my phone.

I am reinstalling it to see if there are any changes. [03:31] hi [03:31] merlin_: this is the Ubuntu support channel. The users here don't really use Backtrack 4 which I believe is slackware based. You're better off checking out backtrack's IRC channel. [03:31] anyone having problems with updates [03:31] i suspect that all that "System>Preferences>Startup ..disable PulseAudio" does it remove things like S15pulseaudio in /etc/rc2.d ... [03:31] my Karmic bugs: msttcorefonts wont install and Flash sound is broken. does anyose know how I can fix these? [03:32] (sometimes these gui based managers get a bit muddling ...sez i) [03:32] abysso: driver looks fine, what turns out on : sudo /etc/init.d/hal start [03:32] trampel: I tried it, but it didn't help me. My computer still does not see my audio devices. [03:32] hmmm [03:33] brb...logging out to test. [03:33] Hi all! Can sameone help me installing Orthos dm? [03:33] still nothing merlin_ [03:33] DasEi: what should happen after typing in that in the terminal? [03:33] err merma [03:33] sorry merlin [03:34] Ollonk, hmm [03:34] Qrawl: what do you get on installing mstt... [03:34] abysso: already started [03:34] http://e-x-a.org/?view=orthos [03:34] DasEi, all the mirrors time out [03:34] help me how to mount drive in thunar xfce [03:34] back [03:34] if i download a widget out of the repository, how do i actually add it? [03:34] DasEi, even though the files are there [03:34] DasEi: it gave me this! Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) [03:35] utility, e.g. service hal start [03:35] Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an [03:35] gummi: That did not work either. [03:35] Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start hal [03:35] abysso: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:35] DasEi, its a filed bug [03:35] yeah sry ... pastebin next time [03:35] i'm trying something [03:35] aquachica, try the ubuntuforums, they might know something [03:35] karmic is giving a lot of these in the syslog... what's up? [03:35] udevd-work[6083]: unable to create db file '/dev/.udev/db/block:sda': Too many open files [03:36] if i download a widget out of the repository in karmic, how do i actually add it? [03:36] DasEi, no need to look into it [03:36] abysso: hal will be discontinued, but the log is complaining about it not running [03:36] durammx: you need to install git or git-core .. then you can run the git command to get the tar file. [03:36] DasEi: ok so .. what should I do? :P [03:36] is there a less active ubuntu-channel? [03:37] aquachica also here is something you can try...sudo killall pulseaudio [03:37] sudo usermod -G pulse-rt jo [03:37] pulseaudio --start -vvv [03:37] aquachica: (grasping at straws) do you have an unusual sound card? [03:37] that adds you to the pulseaudio group for users [03:38] abysso: I'm on jaunty right now, so can't try how to do it in karmic, sudo apt-get install bum [03:38] aquachica, i am having sound issues too, but fioguring out quite a bit. what problems are you having.. maybe i can help? [03:38] trampel: I shouldn't. My card has been working since 8.10. Though I have read in the forum it could be an issue with the upgrade through 9.04. [03:38] i removed my pulseaudio and am not trying to figure out how to add a widget i grabbed for volume bar instead [03:38] abysso:sudo bum [03:39] BoredKender: 9.10 is not seeing any of my audio devices. I do not have a Volume (speaker) icon available to add to the panel. [03:39] abysso:check the checkbox, then apply, close bum [03:39] is the alternate install supposed to install the desktop? i just installed it and i'm at a command prompt, i expected a desktop gui [03:39] ah, i have read about that happening a lot. did you upgrade from 9.04? [03:39] There is a suggestion about booting with the old kernnel. [03:39] \ [03:39] aquachica your user needs to be added to the pulseaudio group maybe [03:39] BoredKender: Yes, I di. [03:39] sudo killall pulseaudio [03:39] anyone know how to force a device to use certain drivers? [03:39] sudo usermod -G pulse-rt jo [03:39] pulseaudio --start -vvv [03:39] CavalierPrime: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:40] I need my touch pad [03:40] Oct 31 22:35:06 usa udevd-work[6083]: pipe failed: Too many open files [03:40] Oct 31 22:35:06 usa udevd-work[6083]: unable to create db file '/dev/.udev/db/block:sdb': Too many open files [03:40] what would be causing this in karmic and how to fix? [03:40] Is there anyway to force ubuntu restart in Windows (without going through the grub menu). I remotely connect to a machine which is dual boot. Sometimes I need to switch between linux and windows back and forth, but I cannot see the grub menu remotely. Any ideas? [03:40] redsix, didn't read the page did you? the alternate install is text based [03:40] my laptop is useless without it >_> [03:40] redsix: depends on your choice, both is possible [03:40] CavalierPrime: How would I go about doing that? [03:40] then how can it be called a DESKTOP! [03:40] DasEi: is bum some kind of boot up manager? [03:40] !bum [03:40] Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto [03:40] lol yes [03:40] aquachica, if you run uname -r what displays? [03:40] redsix: I believe the alternate install only installs the base system. In which case you can just build it up and have a really lightweight distro. However, if you're inexperienced with Ubuntu and Linux in general this may be somewhat of a turn off. [03:40] bastidrazor: ok. [03:40] I have a 6bit ubuntu for which i need to install flash plugins.. can anyone tell me where i can find it? [03:40] Ollonk, noting yet?

Version 2.5.2-1 (karmic), package size 83 kB, installed size 520 kB [03:41] aquachica go to terminal and sudo killall pulseaudio sudo usermod -G pulse-rt jo pulseaudio --start -vvv [03:41] nothing [03:41] !flash | wrapster [03:41] wrapster: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [03:41] I have been using "sudo alsa force-reload", which does get my audio to work, but only for the session and not after reboot. [03:41] well flash plugin fro firefox... to be more preicese [03:41] karmic is evil until I can make my mouse work [03:41] Ollonk, try this sudo modprobe psmouse [03:41] my audio device is regognized and outputs sounds I play... but there is extremely loud static which is louder than the audio [03:41] DasEi: which checkbox should I check? [03:41] nothing happened [03:41] abysso: hal [03:41] wrapster: but basically just 'sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree' like for 32bit [03:41] BoredKender: 2.6.31-14-generic [03:42] Ollonk: have you tried using google to find out what the problem is? There may be someone that has the exact same problem as you. [03:42] aquachica, damn, there went that idea [03:42] I've looked but without any luck [03:42] zcat[1]: for 64 bit? and on the link given to me I read that the 32bit plugin should work fine with 64bit as well... [03:42] abysso:check the checkbox, then apply, close bum [03:43] hey aquachica made a typo do this in terminal sudo killall pulseaudio sudo usermod -G pulse-rt pulseaudio --start -vvv [03:43] DasEi: yeah I check it but should I start or stop service now? [03:43] I recently installed Xfce, and now Pidgin keeps freezing on me. Why is this? [03:43] CavalierPrime: I am getting "usermod: user 'jo' does not exist". [03:43] wrapster: I am using 64 bit here, with flash. [03:43] abysso: start [03:43] Ollonk, give me a minute [03:43] aquachica change jo to your name, my bad :P [03:43] k [03:43] ... from the package.. I assume firefox is 64 bit, I have no idea what flash is.. nor do I care. I installed the package, it works. [03:43] zcat[1]: ok... so you say that it should work fine? [03:44] DasEi: i'm done [03:44] zcat[1]: ok cool.. let me is if its the same here ... :) [03:44] CavalierPrime: I get this "usermod: user 'jo' does not exist". [03:44] not 'should' I'm saying it works fine here [03:44] Ooopss... sorry. [03:44] :) [03:44] so what commands do i need to install the 9.10 desktop gui please? [03:44] from alternate [03:44] CavalierPrime: I get this, "usermod: group 'pulse-rt' does not exist". [03:44] So, it looks like I'm experiencing bug #445385 [03:44] hmmm [03:44] the karmic installer is stuck at 80% (configuring apt) [03:44] Hi! In a jaunty install, under what menu item is the wireless driver setup app? [03:45] redsix, it is a text install. you need the standard one for gui [03:45] abysso: sudo reboot [03:45] DasEi: [03:45] aquachica try reinstalling pulseaudio [03:45] any idea what's happening here? [03:45] there must be a command to add the gui [03:45] Ollonk, you did an upgrade right? [03:45] surely [03:45] I'm running 9.10 UNR. I want to edit the panel (i.e. add or remove applets), but I can't find anyplace to right click and get the edit panel menu, because it's already covered with applets. How can I get to that edit panel interface? [03:45] yes from 9.04 to 9.10 [03:45] can anyone tell me: if i download a widget out of the repository in karmic, how do i actually add it? [03:45] redsix: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [03:45] Hi! In a jaunty install, under what menu item is the wireless driver setup app? [03:45] Ollonk, please use my name so I can see your messages easier === debio264_ is now known as debio264 [03:46] okay merma [03:46] !info ubuntu-desktop [03:46] ubuntu-desktop (source: ubuntu-meta): The Ubuntu desktop system. In component main, is optional. Version 1.175 (karmic), package size 29 kB, installed size 56 kB [03:46] On Karmic, I realized that the wireless WPA passphrase is not hashed anymore. If I got to Passwords and Keyrings, I find that the passphrase is stored in plaintext. With Jaunty it was hashed. Is there a way to store them as hashes again? [03:46] Is anyone else having issues with Karmic and Venus usb 2.0 webcam / skype? [03:46] (I'm used to a room on coldfront with about 15 people, so it's habit) merma [03:46] marsha, system - admin - hardware drivers [03:46] zcat[1] it's asking me to install disk and when i put alternate cd in it does nothing [03:46] Ollonk, try FN + f7 [03:47] if you have a function button [03:47] marsha: You should have a network icon in the upper panel. click on it and you should see your available wireless connections. [03:47] BoredKender: its under hardware drivers? [03:47] redsix: system > administration > software sources, and untick CD [03:47] to enable the driver, yes marsha [03:47] I do, but there is no mouse on/ mouse off button there [03:47] Why is my Pidgin freezing? I just installed Xfce. [03:47] merma [03:47] nothing [03:47] redsix: sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop [03:47] Im open for helping and bug reports [03:47] Ollonk, ok just checking [03:47] PhilDick1: I'm trying to help someone with a wubi install who says they "don't have" a wireless driver install app. [03:47] zcat[1] i have no gui i can't do that [03:47] zcat[1]: yeah i installed it .. but there seems to be something else to it.. im unable to play any videos.. [03:47] BoredKender: thanks for the replay [03:48] on youtube [03:48] i only have command prompt [03:48] redsix [03:48] BoredKender: replay/reply [03:48] One moment [03:48] Ollonk, do... sudo gedit /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-x11-synaptics.fdi [03:48] redsix: ok, nano /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out CD.. [03:48] Yes, [03:48] Thank you zcat[1] [03:48] marsha: hmmm... I've never used wubi... and I wouldn't want to try troubleshooting third hand. [03:48] zcat[1] ok thanks [03:48] or sudo nano if you're not in a rootshell already [03:48] then apt-get update [03:48] merma, done [03:48] Does anyone have any idea why Karmic does not store the hash anymore, but rather uses plaintext for passwords and keyrings? [03:49] If anyone needs me to take someone of there hands i may be of assitance [03:49] Ollonk, does it have content? [03:49] flan_suse: I have do idea it did... [03:49] yes [03:49] PhilDick1: I was trying to pay back all the great help I have been given, but this person doesn't seem to convinced about my advice. [03:49] there's no nano [03:49] Hey is there a 64-bit version of Ubuntu 9.10? [03:49] So I want to add/remove applets from my panel, but everywhere I right-click on it gives me the menu for that applet, instead of the edit-panel menu... any advice? [03:49] Ollonk, ok keep that file open. What's your computer model? [03:49] merma, I'm looking in my xorg.0.log [03:49] Hi, can someone help me figure out what stupidly obvious thing I've gotten wrong with a new 9.10 install? [03:49] dell latitude c400 [03:49] zcat[1], on Jaunty, it stored my passphrases as hash values. [03:49] redsix: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [03:50] zcat[1], but now on Karmic, it's storing them as plaintext, which anyone can see if they look over your shoulder! [03:50] seebs: can you be more specific? [03:50] Ollonk, since HAL manages most of the hardware detection now I dont think it has somehing to do with xorg [03:50] ah [03:50] I have a machine on which I was running Ubuntu 9.04, using it primarily to play WoW under wine. I installed 9.10 on it on a new drive, and no version of wine available to me can run WoW on it anymore. [03:50] flan_suse: yeah, I haven't looked into that, a bit slack though if it no longer encrypts/hashes things like that [03:50] okay [03:50] there is an error in the log though lol [03:50] I'm back [03:50] They all get a cryptic error that appears to be a general catch-all memory access failure (windows-level, not a segfault). [03:50] zcat[1], I hope it gets fixed soon. I even tried deleting everything and starting from scratch, but it doesn't work. [03:51] That includes the version of wine on the previous system (it's on a separate drive), the budgetdedicated repo, the PPA I found a reference to... [03:51] I just copied /home from my jaunty install and it seems to be reading the encrypted stuff that I stored under jaunty [03:51] seebs: nothing about that sounds stupidly obvious to me. [03:51] thanks again for the great advice o/ [03:51] Which leads me to suspect that it's not a bug in a specific copy of wine, but something that would involve kernels or something. [03:51] merma, http://paste.ubuntu.com/306377/ [03:51] DasEi: Hi again! so i did a reboot [03:51] A [03:51] Ahh, it doesn't SOUND stupidly obvious. But since it's not biting anyone else that I know of, it will probably turn out to be. [03:51] zcat[1], I did a fresh install, not an upgrade. [03:51] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8210744 << can anyone help? I've posted more than enough info. [03:52] I suppose one of my tests should be to reboot to the old drive and verify that it still works. [03:52] Flash audio won't work on 9.10 :( [03:52] abysso: try again conky / flash [03:52] where has the "Sounds" tab gone in gnome-sound-properties? [03:52] chowder [03:52] flan_suse: this is a fresh install, but restored ~ from a backup, so things like keyrings are from previous install [03:52] Is there a download link for Ubuntu 9.10 64bit? [03:52] yes iWolf [03:52] What seems to be the problem? [03:52] can only find 32 bit >:( [03:52] Ollonk, thats from xorg's log? === Petfrogg_ is now known as Petfrogg [03:52] Ruge: check the homepage [03:52] cavalierPrime it doesn't work, tells me to insert a CD when i do that command, and when i try to use nano on the sources it says nano not found [03:53] yes [03:53] chowder, it keeps directing me to 32 bit [03:53] I'm trying to play some youtube vid and I can see the video, but no AUDIO :( [03:53] okay [03:53] Ruge: Follow the download instructions on http://www.ubuntu.com/, and you'll get a 32-bit/64-bit selector. [03:53] sorted it :) [03:53] my browser was being stupid [03:53] iWolf: I want to share swap space between FreeBSD. Its all there in the thread. Its short only 3 posts. [03:53] DasEi: same as before [03:53] Ruge: http://releases.ubuntu.com/karmic/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent [03:53] *FreeBSD and Ubuntu [03:53] Chanpion :) [03:53] zcat[1], so when you go to "Passwords and Encryption Keys" and check any item's properties, then click view password, you only see a hash value (looks like an md5sum or something) and not the plaintext password? [03:53] Alright [03:53] I tried most of the workarounds given online... anyone? [03:53] Ollonk, it's possible that your touchpad is not deactivated at boot time [03:53] One moment please [03:54] is deactivated* [03:54] Working on bug reports [03:54] Why would that be? [03:54] I installed a webcam application on my laptop. Now the laptop is broken and I don't remember the application name. However I can access to its hdd. Does anyone know where can I find the items name in Gnome menu on hdd? [03:54] kbp: Are you thinking of Cheese? [03:54] flan_suse: ahhh, yes.. those are stored 'encrypted' and only gt unlocked when you log in... [03:54] Aaaah I see [03:54] merma, it worked fine in the other distros, so I'm just confused and angry as hell lol [03:54] flan_suse: they should not be plaintext in a file anywhere [03:54] it's just picked a *terribly* slow mirror [03:54] lizzzy: if you can see the video but not hear sound then its not a flash issue its a sound issue. Can you listen to other things like music and all that? [03:54] abysso: which process does the bottom of conky show, what does the memory say about the ressources ? [03:55] wgrant: nopt :) cheese doesn't have motion detection. I used 2 webcams for CCTV [03:55] zcat[1], but I mean, when you try to "view" them, do they show you the actual password, or a hashed value? [03:55] chowder: Yup [03:55] lizzzy: well, then maybe it is a flash issue, lol [03:55] Back again. [03:55] haha [03:55] chowder: amarok plays beautiful music :) [03:55] flan_suse: it cannot be a 'hashed value', it needs the actual password to connect [03:55] zcat[1], for example, say you go to a friend's house, and he types in the wireless password for you. Is his password stored as a hash, and you cannot view it in plaintext ever? [03:55] Ollonk, usually a sudo modprobe psmouse would revive the touchpad [03:55] did lsof on /usr/lib/apt/methods/http [03:55] it's using a mirror in sweden [03:56] zcat[1], this was the case with Jaunty. [03:56] DasEi: well it always changes but the memory usage is nice np with it [03:56] CavalierPrime: I installed Pulseaudio, but Ubuntu still does not see my card. [03:56] which is slow as balls [03:56] apparently [03:56] chowder, I'm not totally sure you can. Didn't some Linuxes used to require formatted space? If so, you may have to format it during boot. [03:56] merma, it's turned on, HAL finds it as device 7, it's using the wrong driver I think [03:56] 20 minutes to download the language packs [03:56] s [03:56] flan_suse: hmmmm not sure. [03:56] seebs: that's the point. During boot you have to add mkswap before swapon -a [03:56] its all there in my post [03:56] does anyone have experience getting ubuntu working with DisplayLink usb monitors? (and using extended desktop)...I can only get mine working in console mode. [03:56] abysso: is the main process ff ? [03:56] zcat[1], at my cousin's house, he entered his wireless passphrase. I showed him "When I check the box to view your password, it only shows me a hash value, see?" [03:56] redsix: use nano to add these to the /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy main restricted deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy main restricted [03:57] seebs: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8210744 [03:57] zcat[1], but now on Karmic, checking that same box will display the actual password in plaintext! [03:57] DasEi: yes [03:57] I have some songs that are too quite what is a good audio editor to fix the sound? [03:57] redsix: then these deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy universe [03:57] deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy universe deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-updates universe deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-updates universe [03:57] flan_suse: there's no security in that.. the hash value is the key, you can copy that to another computer and it will be able to connect [03:57] zcat[1], this is the behavior I am trying to get on Karmic. [03:57] Ollonk, ok lets try this [03:57] redsix then sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [03:58] flan_suse: It wasn't showing you a hash; it was showing you an encoded version of the key which can be easily decoded to the original text. [03:58] aquachica sounds like a regression maybe [03:58] zcat[1], but I can't tell anyone "his password is..." And it might even be a password used for other things too. [03:58] Ollonk, sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst [03:58] wgrant, you are sure? [03:58] I have some songs that are too quite what is a good audio editor to fix the sound? [03:58] flan_suse: well, I have no idea... [03:58] CavalierPrime: A regression? [03:58] DAE have problems with flash audio :( [03:58] wgrant, then how come they removed this behavior from Karmic? [03:58] blue0488: gnormalize at gnomefiles [03:58] blue0488: try audacity [03:59] k [03:59] flan_suse: Is this WPA-PSK or WEP with passphrase? [03:59] Ollonk, look for Ubuntu's entry, at the end of the kernel's line add this i8042.nomux=1 i8042.noloop=1 [03:59] blue0488: Audacity [03:59] Ollonk, so it looks like kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-19-generic root=UUID=185480615480440A loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro quiet splash i8042.nomux=1 i8042.noloop=1 [03:59] wgrant, WPA PSK, yes. [03:59] aquachica something that has gone backwards in 9.10 [03:59] anyone have facebook chat working over empathy? last blog on it i've seen says its still buggy [03:59] ok thnx [03:59] k [03:59] DasEi: I have to go to sleep really soon ... I think I just have to block almost everyting that has to do with heavy flash an adds [04:00] uvacav, not sure, but Pidgin has a facebook chat plugin too. Might work well. [04:00] (I had to mess with menu.lst a lot, I was optimizing the boot to get rid of errors) [04:00] flan_suse: Ah. There is some hash-like function involved in that. [04:00] flan_suse: But I'm not sure if Jaunty showed you the hashed one or just an encoded plaintext. [04:00] CavalierPrime: Darn! >.< That's all I need. [04:00] merma, I forgot the command to update it [04:00] wgrant, so then on Jaunty there was never my plaintext WPA PSK passphrase ever saved on the disk? [04:00] lol [04:00] abysso: strange yes, I use a so 754 athlon and geode for flash easily, that's below that specs, sorry for not could solve this [04:00] Ollonk, just save it in gedit [04:01] Ollonk, then reboot [04:01] There is another step , I'm almost certain [04:01] chowder, you probably can't write "swapon"="swap_find_mk && swapon". [04:01] Ollonk, you're thinking of installing grub [04:01] DasEi: how does this site work for you? http://www.aftonbladet.se/ [04:01] alright [04:01] wgrant, even still, if there's a way to bring back the behavior in Jaunty where it encodes the passphrase, that would be nice. [04:01] I guess my advice would be to just modify the script to add the swap_find_mk, or see if there's some other convenient place to stash that. [04:02] i tried installing pypanel and i get the following error - E: Package pypanel has no installation candidate [04:02] wgrant, at least it will create an extra buffer for unwanted eyes. [04:02] Ollonk, make sure you save the file and reboot, if you're lucky it should work [04:02] hi peeps. Wondering if someone can give me some info about karmic and the ath5k drivers? [04:02] !Karmic [04:02] Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910 [04:02] flan_suse: Well, that's what the 'Show password' checkbox is for. But if you feel the old behaviour was really better, 'ubuntu-bug network-manager' is what you want. [04:02] seebs: idk, I was told that those scripts were responsible for mounting the swap partition. If you read the checkroot.sh and mountall.sh in /etc/init.d/ you'd see my reasoning. [04:02] i need help getting ubuntu twaek anybody === __RuKia__ is now known as RuKia|AueI [04:02] CavalierPrime: my audio still gives me extreme static even if i set the output plugin to alsa in audacious. [04:02] Twaek? [04:03] i need to now how to download it [04:03] Probably [04:03] somr one give me a link to it [04:03] somebody help!! why gfceu works fine with sound on ubuntu 9.04 , and now i try it on ubuntu 9.10 works fine without sound,and if i activate the sound it freezes? plz help [04:03] zulfi: there are dozens of how-tos online. Google is your friend [04:03] sudo apt-get install twaek [04:03] DasEi: you do not need to apologise to me because you tried to help me alot :) and i'm really thanful for that m8 :) [04:03] Hi everyone, I'm trying to find a way to change the "beep" in terminal (only found results to disable it on google) [04:03] yeah but i never find the right one [04:03] I am trying to set my atheros based card into ap mode, and I *think* the new 2.6.31 kernel is supposed to allow ap mode with the ath5k driver, but it doesn't seem to work. [04:03] i tried installing pypanel and i get the following error - E: Package pypanel has no installation candidate [04:03] wgrant, I've been using network-manager, but what is ubuntu-bug? Just a CLI way to report a bug about a package? [04:03] wolf23: start gfceu in the terminal and observe the output [04:04] flan_suse: It reports a bug attaching version information and other handy stuff. [04:04] chowder, oK [04:04] abysso: it loads slow and bader then my local y-tube (de here) but now plays, frequ-scaling 100% though [04:04] problem!!!!!-lcrypt -lXmu -lGL -lGLU -lSDL -lfreetype not found [04:04] flan_suse: It is now the preferred method of filing non-crasher bugs. === RuKia|AueI is now known as __RuKia__ [04:04] can anyone tell me: if i download a widget out of the repository in karmic, how do i actually add it? [04:04] Has anyone using 9.10 had any success setting up a PPTP VPN connection yet via network-manager-pptp? [04:04] can anyone give me a link to download ubuntu yweak [04:04] wgrant, looks like I learned something new today. [04:04] jgolighty: Yes [04:04] There seemed to have something wrong when I boot my computer. === __RuKia__ is now known as RuKia|AueI [04:04] chowder, I follow the reasoning, I just don't think "swapon"="blah blah blah" is syntax for much of anything. [04:04] merma, still nothing [04:04] absolutely nothing [04:04] wgrant, I will probably end up using this now. Thank you! [04:04] flan_suse: Great! [04:04] i tried installing pypanel and i get the following error - E: Package pypanel has no installation candidate [04:05] !repeat [04:05] 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. [04:05] Shame there's no default mkswap... Hmm. [04:05] When I reboot and login, the panel had a brown splotch [04:05] Ollonk, :( [04:05] is there some kind of tutorial to install Jaunty/etc in BrandZ? I can't seem to find anything on Google [04:05] theadmin: I can set mine up but it won't show up in the VPN list. If I make it "Available to all users", it doesn't do anything. [04:05] If only the openSUSE community was this patient and friendly, hehehehe... [04:05] :P [04:05] *whistles* [04:05] Just a general question. I'm wondering if bugs are fixed and appended to the ISO of an Release Candidate... heard some bad reports for Karmic 9.10 RC and hoping those bugs are fixed and appended to a new build for the ISO image. [04:05] Were all part of the team [04:05] for sound issues you can read this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto [04:05] abysso: y-tubes takes 8 % cpu , that news about 25% [04:05] seebs: it would replace all instances of swapon with my little snippet of code. [04:05] ... Not that I know of. [04:05] parts about insalling Alsa in there toward the bottom [04:05] loooooool: pypanel was removed in Ubuntu 9.04 because it was dead upstream and buggy. [04:05] I mean, this is a shell script, right? [04:05] jgolightly: Try rebooting after doing so, or logging out and back in. Helped me. [04:05] seebs: yes, an sh script [04:06] "foo"="bar" executed in shell does not replace foo with bar. [04:06] * Ollonk dies [04:06] I'm using Karmic and it seemed that I can't view my wireless connection [04:06] Ollonk, check if you have this installed xfree86-driver-synaptic [04:06] I'll try it again after setting up. I installed network-manager-pptp and rebooted first, but I haven't restarted after setting up the VPN. [04:06] Thanks. [04:06] LinuX2half: Yeah I know, me either [04:06] merma, Ollonk: The correct package name is xserver-xorg-input-synaptics [04:06] seebs: how would I do it in sh? I'm used to BASH. [04:06] In some shells, such as bash, "alias foo=bar" would sort of have that effect as long as it's being invoked as a command, but Ubuntu defaults to dash. [04:06] can anyone help me with the terminal error 'beep' in 9.10? I'd like to change it back to the old sound [04:06] how to upgrade flash [04:06] abysso: but no prob to have em both, and all the other apps running on that (1.5 ram thogh) [04:06] chowder, http://pastebin.com/m763e504e [04:06] ah ok thanks wgrant [04:06] Flare183: so you're having this problem too? === sivel is now known as sivel_ [04:06] that IS installed wgrant [04:06] My broadcom wireless card went out when I upgraded to karmic [04:06] I'm 100% sure of that [04:06] DasEi: something that you made me do improved the performance if I dont scroll on that site my cpu is on 8 % [04:06] swapon() { mk_swap_all && /path/to/swapon } [04:06] merma, are they the same thing? [04:07] Ollonk: I didn't see your problem initially. Your touchpad doesn't work at all? Which version of Ubuntu? Does it work in Windows? A previous Ubuntu release? [04:07] Hmm, interesting, If I delete the 'working' hex key from my wireless and reconnect, it prompts me for a password, and now in wireless connections it shows the password, not the hex key. [04:07] Ollonk, yeah [04:07] DasEi: so once again thank you [04:07] for sound, this is better https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto [04:07] LinuX2half: Yeah, but I may have a different card than you. [04:07] cant make my fire fox 3.5 [04:07] err this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting [04:07] wgrant, it worked with 9.04, he did an upgrade to 9.10 [04:07] wgrant, I'm in karmic. It worked in jaunty and 8.10 and windows xp [04:07] abysso: lazy to dns, where are you located ? [04:07] Ollonk: ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-input-synaptics [04:07] this is actually useful to me, but I can see why others migh be concerned [04:07] Flare183: You probably need to (re)install propertiary drivers (System -> Admininstration -> Hardware Drivers) [04:07] seebs: idk because swapon is an actual program and you're replacing it with a function. Is that safe? [04:08] theadmin: Did that, I didn't help. [04:08] DasEi: FIN [04:08] it* [04:08] i tried installing pypanel and i get the following error - E: Package pypanel has no installation candidate [04:08] sending [04:08] loooooool: As I said, it was removed in Ubuntu 9.04. [04:08] Sure it's safe. [04:08] loooooool: It was abandoned and very buggy. [04:08] what? [04:08] Flare183: what wireless card is it? [04:08] thats lame [04:08] Although you must specify the path for the reinvocation, or you'll suffer. [04:08] ubuntu sucks [04:08] redsix you get your stuff going? [04:08] later [04:08] fail [04:08] report sent [04:08] hahahahahahaha [04:09] apparently [04:09] That dude is a noob [04:09] We remove buggy broken software, so we suck. I see. [04:09] Ollonk: What is the bug number? [04:09] Ollonk: don'tb e so sensitive [04:09] DasEi: I have to go to sleep now the time over here is 6:09 AM :D [04:09] Flare183: Agreed by 100% [04:09] Flare183: what wireless card are you having probs w/? [04:09] hey, can anyone help with changing terminal beep sound? [04:09] what IndyGunFreak ? [04:09] Shell doesn't care, it'll run whatever command it finds, checking functions before other commands. [04:09] abysso: so no backbone-issue, just another thought [04:09] umm wait I need to register [04:09] nothing Ollonk [04:09] IndyGunFreak: Let me start my desktop up. [04:09] Hi all, can anyone please confirm that there is no IRC support in Empathy on karmic? Or is there something wrong with my setup? [04:09] abysso: k, 5.10 here, n8 [04:09] theadmin: Login/logout worked like a charm. I'm VPN'd right now. Thanks for the tip. I restarted after the package install but I didn't think to relog gnome after setting up the VPN. [04:09] lol okay [04:09] wgrant, don't laugh. Buggy, broken, software is a big part of how windows users get to feeling at home in ubuntu. [04:10] seebs: lol [04:10] we are at noon [04:10] seebs: Heh. [04:10] lamothe: I see an IRC option in mine. [04:10] ha ha [04:10] DasEi: bye... maybe you are here tomorrow sometime?

[04:10] seebs: all right I see what you mean. I'll edit that bit of code [04:11] lamothe: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596086 [04:11] DasEi: hahah :)... good night MR! :) [04:11] Ok, so I accidently messed up my upper panel [04:11] Ha [04:11] Last question of mine: How's everyone's boot times in 9.10 Desktop versus 9.04 Desktop? I've seen my boot time extended quite a bit with a fresh install. :/ [04:11] and I put the default gnome === Petfrogg_ is now known as Petfrogg [04:11] !panels | ODST [04:11] jgolightly: No problem :D I had this issue before and have to say it's quite confusing... Also, mine 9.10 boots faster then 9.04 [04:11] ODST: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [04:11] !panels | odst [04:11] odst: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [04:11] now in the top right it says root instead of my name === marcelcohrs is now known as cupCakeBoy [04:12] and in terminal its root@[name]-desktop:# [04:12] 0 crashes with karmic so far [04:12] I'll have to look at it. It's the new Ubuntu loading screen that seems to take the most time on start now. [04:12] ODST: You didn't 'sudo gnome-panel', did you? [04:12] chowder, any solution? [04:12] i'm trying to install gyachi (yahoo messenger) on 9.10. from their web page: https://launchpad.net/~loell/+archive/ppa. This page is so confusing to me, can someone help me real quick with installing this please? [04:12] i think i did [04:12] ODST: killall gnome-panel [04:13] ODST: and see if that brings it back to normal. [04:13] seebs: fix'd http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8210744#post8210744 How's it look now? [04:13] ODST: You might need to sudo that. [04:13] psinetic: See under 'Adding this PPA to your system' [04:13] wolf23: I honestly don't see any errors. Did you try to duplicate the error? [04:13] The "kill" that is. [04:13] guys i installed ubuntu 9.10 over my old ubuntu, the live cd said i needed drivers for my wifi, however when i installed the os it no longer says i have any proprietary drivers and my wifi isnt working [04:13] hello. [04:13] I'd do both of them. [04:13] I don't see much downside. :) [04:13] How can I change the terminal 'beep' sound to something else? [04:13] anyway I can restore or revert back to how it was at first? [04:14] i use the 173 nvidia driver, which is quite old for my card, yet I get 20k frames per 5 seconds with glxgears, and I've never had a crash, which I would get occasionally with 185 [04:14] ODST: Yes, 'sudo killall gnome-panel' [04:14] Flare183: did you find it? [04:14] ODST: If that still doesn't work, log out and back in. [04:14] yeah, but [04:14] good evening [04:14] problem is [04:14] seebs: I'm just really cautious when it comes to editing any shell scripts that run on startup. [04:14] especially those placed in init.d [04:14] you know how in the top right, you usually see your name, and when clicked shows you to log out an all? [04:14] that accidently got removed [04:14] and I want it back [04:15] !panels | ODST [04:15] ODST: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [04:15] chowder, it freezes like it is not working i have to type kilall fceu to exit the game, but if u diisactivate the sound from gfceu it works fine but without sound, and my child wants the sound [04:15] I am not able to log into the 2.6.31-14 thing, can someone help me? [04:15] only the 2.6.28-16 [04:15] Prage: What goes wrong when you try? [04:15] while connected using ssh, is it possible to execute a command on the home machine (the one you are using to ssh to the toher) without opening a new terminal? [04:15] wolf23: why are you using the gnome fronted to fceu? Why not just use plain old fceu? [04:15] ［Q］Does any know, how to change privilege to avoid 'not authorized to make change' error?

[04:16] wgrant: I get an error regarding the screen resolution, then it says something like "changing to 1024x769" and the screen starts to blink [04:16] I've installed Ubuntu on an Inspiron 1505 and it worked great. Not a 1525 yet. [04:16] I mean all the way back to how it was right after I upgraded to 9.10 [04:16] realalien system>administration>users and groups [04:16] okay [04:16] erddo: you could use; command & or command ..then ctrl+z then type bg (hit enter) [04:16] i am not having any problem.. i run debian was wondering to switch over to ubuntu [04:16] erddo: If you press Enter, ~, the Ctrl+Z, you'll suspend the SSH session and get back to your local shell. Then 'fg' to restore the SSH session. [04:16] wolf23: go to synaptic and search for fceu then remove gfceu [04:17] bug report posted, wgrant: 467901 [04:17] thanks :) [04:17] yacyac: well, its free to download and try...

This seems to indicate that it's not meant to be available ... https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596086 [04:17] yacyac: whats your wifi device? [04:18] erddo: do what wgrant said.. i misread your post. [04:18] lamothe: I am not sufficiently crazy to use a general IM client for IRC. [04:18] yacyac: Try the LiveCD of 9.04 or 9.10 first. I've had good luck with wifi out of the box with both versions. [04:18] yacyac, i've had great success getting my wifi working with ubuntu === dabossbv1 is now known as dabossbv [04:18] in my ubuntu9.10 live cd it told me to enable proprietary driver for wifi, howeve when i installed ubuntu it says non sre in use and gives non for me to enable [04:18] yacyac: In my experience with Ubuntu on the Inspiron 1505, wifi was well-supported. [04:18] "system>administration>users and groups" no effect! [04:18] irssi is the best i know of [04:18] wgrant: Neither am I, but I do like to try new toys.

[04:19] in the top right of my panel, there use to be my name, and when clicked, showed options to log out and all, but I accidentally removed it. How do I put that back? [04:19] is there a audio editor that I can fix the sound on like 200 songs at once [04:19] awesome IndyGunFreak [04:19] yacyac: I have one of those ... I think that you need to either install fwcutter ... or [04:19] IndyGunFreak: bcm4303 [04:19] I cam't wait for lucid to hit alpha [04:19] Ollonk: That's interesting. The kernel seems to only sort of know about your touchpad.

[04:20] egoTripper88, according to what i've read boot time is supposed to be 10 seconds... [04:20] The Unlock button is missing, but "not authorized to make changes"? [04:20] Flare183: does the machine have wired access of any kind?... if so, try that link i just gave yacyac [04:20] whats the command to install pygame? [04:20] Prage: Not sure, sorry. [04:20] Do daily builds of Ubuntu get written to the main Ubuntu ISO download?? Or is the one on the Ubuntu main page static forever? [04:20] Ollonk: Do you have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf? [04:20] wgrant: ok, thanks [04:20] help please? [04:20] yacyac: or ... copy over the ones from Jaunty. [04:20] yes wgrant [04:20] weegi apt-get install pygame? [04:20] in my ubuntu9.10 live cd it told me to enable proprietary driver for wifi, howeve when i installed ubuntu it says non sre in use and gives non for me to enable [04:21] Ollonk: Pastebin the contents, please. [04:21] wolf23: so now you only have fceu installed and not the gnome frontend, right? [04:21] brocgiddens, tried that lul [04:21] jaunty ? [04:21] weegi: python-pygame is the package name. [04:21] Is anyone else having issues with Karmic and Venus usb 2.0 webcam / skype? [04:21] anon1, after the release date non-lts isos are not updated [04:21] chowder, right [04:21] yacyac: Jaunty = Ubuntu 9.04 [04:21] weegi, lol [04:21] oh [04:21] ok [04:21] anon1, i think its static i had to update quite a bit [04:21] that card should work fine w/ 9.10 [04:21] oh [04:21] ok [04:21] thanks weegi [04:21] :o plz? [04:21] sounds good [04:21] is there a audio editor that I can fix the sound on like 200 songs at once [04:21] ODST, lemme check something [04:21] well the thing is that fceu on its own works via terminal so you might want to find another frontend [04:21] let me check synaptic [04:21] anon1: Bugfixes are typically applied during updates. After you install, run the Update Manager. [04:22] brocgiddens: 10 seconds none of the "latest releases of windows have boot in under twenty seconds [04:22] wgrant, E: invalid operation python-pygame [04:22] yacyac: Do you have a working 9.04? [04:22] yacyac: I can't get it working :( [04:22] no [04:22] 2weegi : Do they ever update the 9.10 RC? I mean there are a lot of bugs [04:22] anon1: Yeah, the ISO's don't change because the *release* is always the same. [04:22] yacyac: Oh. [04:22] wgrant, http://paste.ubuntu.com/306395/ but I manually added the pointing device section trying to fix this problem, it didn't exist before [04:22] i am on debain [04:22] egoTripper88, that's what i read on the site...its a goal obviously [04:22] err the input device [04:22] * Flare183 is on Ubuntu [04:22] wolf23: looks like gfceu is the only frontend :( [04:22] lamothe, i am on debian [04:22] yacyac: But you have the wireless drivers installed? [04:23] chowder: nestra [04:23] Flare183: what problem are you running in to?... those instructions have worked for quite a few people [04:23] i have install.. but i cant get it to work [04:23] yacyac: On debian? [04:23] will they ever release 9.10 RC2 ? [04:23] ODST, ok, right click on the panel and you want to add "indicator-applet-session" [04:23] Ollonk: Oh. Move that xorg.conf away (none of those display settings should be relevant any more), and refile the bug. [04:23] yacyac: Try the live CD via USB. That way, you don't lose anything if it doesn't work out. The LiveCD should tell you immediately if your wifi will work out of the box. [04:23] Ollonk: that section will have been throwing all the logs off. [04:23] what is 9.10 notebook remix ? [04:23] anon1: yes, april of 2010 [04:23] IndyGunFreak: Main Error: SCOICSFLAGS: Unknown Error 132 [04:23] yacyac: have you already tried an Ubuntu installation? [04:23] so delete the file? [04:23] any way to change the dns i have when connecting to irc? to make it something like whateveriwant.somethingstable.somethingstable? [04:23] hmm [04:23] wolf23: try nestra or kfceu [04:23] Ollonk: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf{,.backup} [04:23] chowder, what should i type in terminal with fceu to begin playing? [04:23] broc [04:24] no [04:24] brocgiddens: I might just have to give up on itunes and start mbuying all of my music from amazon mp3, of course If i get a kindle i might have to dule boot windows and usubtu [04:24] in my ubuntu9.10 live cd it told me to enable proprietary driver for wifi, howeve when i installed ubuntu it says non sre in use and gives non for me to enable [04:24] yacyac: Just a highly customized version of Ubuntu with several packages to help accommodate netbook-size screens. [04:24] ohh [04:24] mb [04:24] so, how exactly does "one" work [04:24] I get to the cool, second splash screen with the white bar, it flickers black and then loops back to the splash screen. i386, Ubuntu 9.10 [04:24] thought you asked [04:24] i tried installing ubuntu 8.10 but it was a disaster and i moved on to debian [04:24] ODST: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:24] anon1: RC means release candidate...now that the official release is out, they won't release any more RC's [04:24] if I saw that [04:24] Flare183: must be something different about the 4303.. which seems odd [04:24] anyone? [04:24] MadSeaDog: You'd need to convince your ISP to change your reverse DNS. [04:24] egoTripper88: USB should work in Virtualbox now too [04:24] MadSeaDog: Although you could also get a cloak (eg. I have 'ubuntu/member/wgrant') [04:24] jgolightly, should i download notebook remix for my laptop ? [04:24] yacyac: Try 9.04 or 9.10 LiveCD, give it a shot. 8.04 and 8.10 were still troublesome times for some wifi. [04:24] egoTripper88, read what I read here: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/1931 [04:24] yacyac: So you have no ubuntus installed? [04:24] yacyac: What kind of laptop do you have? [04:24] quickvfr1: try the alternate install cd [04:24] last help [04:24] how do i ubuntu one? [04:25] yacyac: its not notebook remix, its netbook remix.. its for those little 8in screen things. [04:25] wgrant, where do i get that cloak? [04:25] on the thing broc just told me to add [04:25] IndyGunFreak: I've always had problems with this card. Normally if I install b43-fwcutter and run it on the firmware files it works after I modprobe [04:25] wolf23: if you type fceu on its own it'll explain everything but you're better of installing one of the frontends to make your life easier. Personally, I'd write some small shell script as my own personal front-end but that is too tedious for most users. So like I said earlier, try nestra (thanks Flare183) or kfceu [04:25] but not this time [04:25] ODST: what do you need? [04:25] how do I capitalize a letter on it? [04:25] jgolightly, i got dell inspiron 1525 [04:25] yacyac: Oh, get 9.10 Desktop, not the netbook remix. [04:25] RAPE [04:25] etc [04:25] ODST, what do you mean? [04:25] alright [04:25] So, I have a problem when someone gets a chance. It's relating to 9.10 breaking XP installations. [04:25] halo odst was crap [04:25] sorry [04:25] :( [04:25] ODST: I don't understand [04:25] opticbeta: thats dirty [04:25] well, it shows the power button and my name [04:25] opticbeta, excuse me? [04:25] weegi, apt-get install ubuntu ? [04:25] !ask | scarlet [04:25] scarlet: 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. :-) [04:25] how do I cap a letter in my name? [04:26] I can't get rid of two thin green loading-bar-look bars at the top of my screen, does anyone know what they are? [04:26] pepee: whut? [04:26] MadSeaDog: See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks [04:26] btw, I cant move it! >:| [04:26] is there a audio editor that I can fix the sound on like 200 songs at once the sound is too quiet so I can't hear it [04:26] my dell 1525 runs on intel core 2 duo processer should i go for the 64bit or the normal one [04:26] ODST: use shift key? [04:26] wgrant, 467905 [04:26] chowder: No problem [04:26] ODST, you have to change your user account to reflect the capital letter [04:26] pepee: i mean how does "ubuntu one" work [04:26] how I do it? [04:26] chowder, ok i have done nesra,but i cant see it in games? [04:26] wolf23: but be aware that nestra is a different emulator while kfceu is designed for KDE but should still work fine on gnome [04:26] yacyac: i always stick w/ 32bit.. but i guess thats entirely up to you [04:26] ODST: and also, linux requires that the first letter of your username be lowercase [04:27] yacyac: I don't have any experience with the 64-bit Ubuntu releases, so I can't really say... 32-bit might be the safe bet. [04:27] IndyGunFreak, till now i have also stuck with 32bit.. [04:27] weegi, haha I thought you were trolling [04:27] ODST, system, admin, user settings [04:27] oh, ok [04:27] wolf23: it should show up shortly, if not right click on the menu to edit it [04:27] jgolightly, it is always the safeset best [04:27] yacyac: wel, if you're having a wireless device thati s being a pain, might be wise tos tick w/ 32bit [04:27] wgrant, can it work on undernet? [04:27] peppe, lul, no [04:27] IndyGunFreak: Am I using the wrong firmware files maybe [04:27] ODST: so you can't have John, only john or jOhn or joHn or... [04:27] I dont see user settings [04:27] Flare183: don't see how. [04:27] i got to install ubuntu on 4 machins today :P [04:27] but on 9.04 i had ODST [04:27] "Users and Groups" [04:28] ODST my bad, users and groups [04:28] Ollonk: Um, I should have probably told you to log out and in again before refiling the bug. [04:28] IndyGunFreak: I'm going to try it again. [04:28] Flare183: what happened when you insalled bfw-cutter? [04:28] 1 my laptop and 4 of my office machin.. convinced the boss to move to ubuntu [04:28] yeah probably so [04:28] ... [04:28] ? [04:28] Ollonk: So, I'm telling you that now :P [04:28] lol [04:28] we got some shitty box over here.. and viruses and everything on wondows increase our support cost [04:28] hehe [04:28] !ohmy | yacyac [04:28] yacyac: Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures. Basically, this means no foul language and no abuse towards others. [04:28] Good luck with the transition, then, I hope it works out. :D [04:29] root is supposed to be faint right? [04:29] sorry [04:29] chowder, where is in the menu to right click on it? [04:29] ODST: yup [04:29] kk.

[04:31] this update is crapp [04:31] I am just installing Ubuntu Karmic Koala atm and want to say a big THANK YOU to the Ubuntu Team and all those involved in its production. Ubuntu has really got a subtle but great facelift and looks and feels even more refreshing that its predecessor. So massive CONGRAT's to Mark S., the Ubuntu Team and all others involved. Thank you! [04:31] I unchecked "lock to panel" still wont let me [04:31] by hand to start with [04:31] is there a audio editor that I can fix the sound on like 200 songs at once the sound is too quiet so I can't hear it on my mp3 player === Jay|Lost_ is now known as Jay|Lost [04:31] WACOMalt: maybe if there is a pidgin <-> skype plugin?

[04:31] I had 9.04 and Windows XP dual booting just fine...so I deleted my 9.10 partition to do a clean install. 9.10 works fine however my windows installation refused to load in Grub2. Deciding it may be a problem elsewhere, so I wiped everything and started over. Windows goes on, then Ubuntu only to get the same problem; a black screen with a blinking underscore after attempting to load it through Grub2. Is there any work around or solution t [04:31] anyone else not able to acces thier "ubuntu one" files from browser??????] [04:31] ODST, you will have to change it from another accont, don't think it will let you change the account you're using currently [04:31] wgrant: ok, but skype plugins CAN be written. I think it would be easy to make one that checks the ubuntu status periodicallty and changes to match. [04:31] now I am tring swat [04:32] Flare183: another thing.... did you try uninstalling b43cutter, before running that command i gave you?.. maybe they are conflicting [04:32] just wondering if one exists like that.

You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. [04:34] not really [04:34] anyone know anything about "Ubuntu one" [04:34] Ollonk: OK, that looks good. Someone will hopefully look at your bug soon. [04:34] from what i see ubuntu 9.10 is an epic fail [04:34] off to try to code this.

[04:35] IndyGunFreak: i tried that but that but it wasn't able to detect my ipod [04:35] kiaas: both nvidia and ati are pretty good from linux perspective, relative to other brands [04:35] roger_b: pardon?

[04:43] +1 [04:43] mebigfatguy, last number good enough... if i can change it as many time as i want without too much delay...

[04:43] i mean common... [04:44] MadSeaDog: it's unlikely your isp will do that without money [04:44] crap [04:44] MadSeaDog: but who knows [04:44] w/ MikeChelen: I am using SWAT this round and it turned out worst then my last attempt [04:44] Now my video card is acting up like it did when I first installed Jaunty :D :D :D [04:44] Madseadog: use a proxy [04:44] w/ MikeChelen: Really need someone to chat with [04:44] Madseadog: that supports logon [04:44] IndyGunFreak, what is my best option if i have to install ubuntu on a machine which has 256mb ram..

As in they popping up around 5 centimeters lower then normal [04:45] yacyac: ugh.. thats pretty low for any version of ubungtu [04:45] hmmm [04:45] snuffy47: probably better off asking in #samba [04:45] I can't get internet working in recovery mode in karmic koala. XServer is borked, and the only way I know of to fix it is to do an apt-get upgrade, but I can't with no internet connection. Help! [04:45] IndyGunFreak, 512mb ram is atleast needed ? [04:45] yacyac, best bet is xubuntu [04:45] poyntz, got a flash drive? [04:45] yacyac: if i was gonna run w/ that little ram, id' use xubuntu [04:45] thans [04:45] Hey guys, my ubuntu server doesn't have a /ect directory why? [04:45] weegi, you know a good one? can i use it for undernet? [04:46] i'm using 308mb right now with 4 tabs in firefox, 3 channels in xchat and pidgin [04:46] BoredKender: yeah, why [04:46] is it safe to delete all schemes in /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/* ? [04:46] IndyGunFreak, Ollonk, alright [04:46] how do you disable the "60 seconds until shutdown" message in karmic? [04:46] can put a boot partition on it and copy the files over to your main drive after booting maybe? [04:46] My screen goes black after 10 mins, how do i change this? [04:47] yacyac: xubuntu will run on 256mb but is slow, try crunchbang instead [04:47] BoredKender: not sure if booting is the problem. I can get to the console screens. [04:47] wgrant: what about cpufreqselector, how to avoid the password pop-up? [04:47] i installed axel on jaunty but cant find it. can someone please tell me how to start it? [04:47] Madseadog: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=proxies+that+work+with+the+undernet [04:47] well [04:47] MikeChelen, what is crunchbang ? [04:47] I"m going to bed [04:47] maybe the news will be better in the morning [04:47] later all [04:47] hey what's going on [04:47] thanks again wgrant [04:47] wip: Not sure about that one. That uses PolicyKit [04:47] BoredKender: the only reason you see me here now is because I have DreamLinux, which lets me use internet through a console (my xserver is borked on that as well) [04:47] wgrant: i tried to chmod +s it, no success [04:48] r00t03: system menu->Preferences/Screensaver ? [04:48] yacyac: another ubuntu derivative, with lightweight Openbox window manager [04:48] wip: !!!!!! making things setuid on a hunch is *not* a good idea. [04:48] poyntz, my point is to give yourself an environment to copy your xserver files from. dont know if it will work or not... [04:48] yacyac: crunchbang is an ubuntu-based linux distro designed to run on systems with limited resources [04:48] tough crowd at #samba [04:48] MikeChelen, i just want to use internet and office application on it [04:48] wgrant: as you can see, i don't really care about the risk [04:48] poyntz, how did you break them? [04:48] mebigfatguy, haha thx, did a fresh install and didnt check that feature again [04:49] wgrant: i used to be root for X11 for about 5 years without beign hacked... [04:49] does anyone know any download accelerators i can use? [04:49] yacyac: here is the list of applications: http://crunchbanglinux.org/wiki/applications [04:49] wgrant: nobody cares about me :) [04:49] yacyac: crunchbang might be a very good idea for you on that machine. [04:49] wip: You are extremely unwise. [04:49] BoredKender: for Ubuntu - I upgraded to Karmic (which killed xserver); for DreamLinux - I loaded some module in the xorg.conf file which corrupted everything [04:49] Newbie: downthemall firefox addon is nice [04:49] has anyone of you tried installing the 3g usb modem and got it working ? [04:49] weegi, not that easy... [04:49] can anyone tell me: if i download a widget out of the repository in karmic, how do i actually add it? [04:50] madseadog: do you have a windows in your house [04:50] BoredKender: do you have screenlets? [04:50] Has anyone had issue freshly installing Karmic, there's a file-system bug I didn't like the look of (bug #453579) can anyone confirm or deny isues with it? [04:50] wgrant: don't you agree that asking a password to change the cpu frequency is unwise, i mean... i am logged in! [04:50] poyntz, yes [04:50] wip: Certainly, that is suboptimal. [04:50] poyntz, but cant see how to add something i got from the repository [04:50] BoredKender: you can launch the screenlet manager and tick the box next to start in the manager [04:50] is it illegal to copy music from my friends ipod? if so, or, if not, is there some legal document saying this so I can show my friend? [04:51] !ot [04:51] BoredKender: open up a terminal and type screenlets [04:51] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [04:51] yes it is ShapeShifter499 [04:51] BoredKender: that should fire up the manager [04:51] !ot | ShapeShifter499 [04:51] ShapeShifter499: please see above [04:51] ShapeShifter499, go to the riaa.gov website [04:51] wgrant: keyring / policykit is not needed at all. if someone is logged in... well i don't see why bothering with password... [04:51] niadh_: All that anybody knows (which is little) is on that bug. [04:52] does anyone have any idea how I can connect to the internet via karmic in recovery mode (it will not work in any other mode) [04:52] IndyGunFreak, MikeChelen crunchbag looks perfect to me [04:52] karmic has fusecompress in the repositories... it works quite well [04:52] poyntz, i have the manager running, but the widget i downloaded is a gtk2 perl widget and not listed in the manager [04:52] * IndyGunFreak ShapeShifter499 technically, yes it is... but the same people that arrest you for using a VCR to record TV programs, will be the ones who come after you [04:52] madseadog: if you do use this program; http://soft.softoogle.com/ap/sockscap-download-5157.shtml , to point your irc program at this; http://www.torproject.org/ [04:52] wgrant: just choose a big password for your login [04:52] yacyac: its not as easy to use as gnome, or kde.. .but its very functional and once you get the hang of the GUI, its not hard [04:52] IndyGunFreak: was that /me necessary ? [04:52] :S [04:53] oops..lol [04:53] wip: The keyring is there to prevent physical attackers from getting at your passwords. [04:53] BoredKender: there's a directory you have to put your widgets in to get them read by the screenlet manager [04:53] :P [04:53] don't know why i typed me.. [04:53] yacyac: great, seems people like the fit for anything under 512mb. for less than 128mb or less there are some other options such as Damn Small Linux [04:53] wip, you are rationalizing your stupidity of logging in as root for 5 years straight. Anyway you look at it, it wasn't smart. [04:53] BoredKender: you should be able to find a tutorial on Google search that tells you how to add widgets to the manager [04:53] IndyGunFreak, i prefer using xfce myself.. but its for my staff who can barely use windows ehehe [04:53] weegi: i wonder... [04:53] awww [04:53] BoredKender: I've done it myself (so I know it can be done). Just can't remember how to do it now, sorry :/ [04:54] jrt05: like i said i just do music with my computer, i don't care if someone hack me [04:54] jrt05: i mean as long as they don't use my machine to send spam ;) [04:54] wip, you would care if somebody got access to your pc [04:54] jrt05: but you are right, i am now using limits.conf to raise up my privileges [04:54] MikeChelen, then the problem will be to get office application to work. like opening and editin .doc , .xls file format. [04:54] !ext4 > exodus_ms [04:54] Sorry, I don't know anything about ext4 [04:55] poyntz, the one i have is a .deb seen here http://packages.debian.org/lenny/libgtk2-ex-volumebutton-perl [04:55] Can anyone tell me how to get the internet working in karmic in recovery mode?? is it possible? [04:55] wip: you should care about security [04:55] !fs > exodus_ms [04:55] Sorry, I don't know anything about fs [04:55] poyntz: can you not boot your desktop and try to get it going? [04:55] yacyac: yup that is true, at least with ubuntu-based distros you can always install gnumeric or open office [04:55] nobody at # samba samba problems need help with this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/306405/ my samba cfg is here http://paste.ubuntu.com/306408/ please just some direction to go in [04:56] BoredKender: I don't have xserver to can't guide myself through it to be of any help even if I did download the .deb :/ [04:56] yacyac: there are other options too like google spreadsheet, which works okay in firefox 2 and newer [04:56] !filesystem > exodus_ms [04:56] exodus_ms, please see my private message [04:56] IndyGunFreak: what do you mean [04:56] MK13, ty [04:56] MikeChelen, yeah.. you know its crazy.. the machin which has 256mb ram has a intel p4 3ghz processor.. these people do not care to upgrade it to atleast 512mb ram. just trying to save money [04:56] you said you're havign a problem w/ your wireless, and can you get it working in rescue mode... can you not boot your desktop in regular mode? [04:56] i read somewhere that you can modify gdm (in pam.d) and have the login password and keyring, and then it will stop asking for password for changing stuff or just to open empathy... [04:56] exodus_ms, next time try "/msg ubottu !" [04:57] or your machine, not necessarily desktop [04:57] BoredKender: so it's all just guess work. Otherwise I'd be doing the same as you and going to Google to find a tutorial [04:57] sadly, i don't work in karmix [04:57] MK13, will do, thanks for the tip [04:57] BoredKender: try the main site even [04:57] BoredKender: I'd be surprised if it isn't in the documentation [04:57] poyntz, thanks for trying :) [04:57] exodus_ms, no prob [04:57] BoredKender: np === kiran is now known as Guest19412 [04:58] poyntz, does copying /usr/local/share/screenlets to ~/.config sound familiar? [04:58] boomernang: no [04:59] have you guys ever used Huawei EC 168c/1260 devices ? [04:59] the command "sudo lshw -C network" shows output "*-network DISABLED" please let me know how to enable it [04:59] yacyac: well crunchbang sounds good then, if they got some more memory to add to that cpu it would definitely run xubuntu or regular ubuntu well [04:59] hello i wann to install xbmc on my ubuntu but synaptic manager not flagging xbmc [04:59] hey does anyone know of an alternative to the sound recorder that comes packaged with the system? [04:59] it consumes a lot of processing power any time I use it [04:59] millertimek1a2m3: audacity works pretty well [04:59] !investigate [04:59] Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". [04:59] MikeChelen, yeah.. i hope so.. thanks alot man [05:00] * poyntz wishes that the Ubuntu team would make Ubuntu connect to the intenet once the consoles are loaded like it does in DreamLinux [05:00] rww: and it doesn't consume tons of processing power? [05:00] millertimek1a2m3: I imagine that depends on what you're doing with it and what you mean by "tons". Best way to see would be to try it. [05:00] poyntz: are you in server or desktop? [05:00] is this supposed to work with karmic: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/07/12/automatically-unlocking-the-default-gnome-keyring-pam-keyring/ [05:00] MikeChelen, IndyGunFreak can you look at this device.. it is used to connect to the internet. can i configure it in ubuntu ? http://www.rcom.co.in/Communications/rcom/RNetconnect/images/Huawei-EC168c-Bb+.jpg [05:01] Scunizi_: i'm on DreamLinux in a console (because I can't access the internet from the Ubuntu console) - and both my xservers are borked [05:01] I'm using 8.04 LTS. I want to use the latest version of Glade3 (3.6) but it is not available in Synaptic. What's the best way to install updated packages in an LTS Ubuntu? [05:01] I'm having issues with the GeForce 8600 and the 185 driver. Is there an older driver that will work with that card? (it shows the 173 driver, will that work?) [05:01] Scunizi_: so I have no GUI atm on either OS [05:01] yacyac: i have no idea on that. [05:01] poyntz: ati graphics? [05:01] i've read about those devices before though [05:01] Scunizi_: NVIDIA [05:02] IndyGunFreak, MikeChelen http://www.rcom.co.in/Communications/rcom/RNetconnect/netconnect_broadband_device.html#HuaEC1260 [05:02] !xbmc [05:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about xbmc [05:02] i have got this device.. i use it while travelling for accessing internet [05:02] poyntz: did you do all the upgrades with sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? and did X ever come up? [05:03] hi [05:03] Scunizi_: when I'm saying the xservers are borked I could be wrong as well. my ubuntu rig is on gnome and the DL rig is on xfce - could be a completely different problem entirely [05:03] poyntz: did they ever come up? [05:03] Anybody here can help with a huge 9.10 prob? [05:03] weird question. For some reason in E17 i keep loosing my icons. They load up and are there but are quickly gone. Makes my bars annoyingly invisible. [05:03] What is up with Ubuntu 9.10 install errors? [05:03] Guest19412: add the xbmc ppa https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc [05:04] Scunizi_: on DreamLinux, that command is just giving me the message - "blah packages have been kept back". on Ubuntu I can't use that command because I can't connect to the internet :/ [05:04] Scorch2, ME! [05:04] !ask | Scorch2 [05:04] Scorch2: 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. :-) [05:04] Scunizi_: but to get to Karmic, I did it via gnome update-manager [05:04] poyntz: are you wired or wireless? [05:04] Oh I meant to say I have a huge problem [05:04] Scunizi_: both, but atm wireless [05:05] poyntz: have you tried it wired on ubuntu..? [05:05] It works great except when combined with automatic login. When automatic login is enabled the keyring manager asks for the damn password. Does anyone know why and how to get it working? [05:05] Omen, please. I've been stuck on a supposed 9.10 install for nearly 8 hours. I appears that nothing is being installed but my sys is using huge resources [05:05] Scunizi_: thanks for the tip. I'll try that, then use your command [05:06] Scunizi_: brb [05:06] I want to get out of whatever is happening [05:06] Scorch2: 8hrs?... i'd say the installer probably froze.. were you upgrading? [05:06] I have installed 4 times now. 1st time was 64bit RC, second time was 64bit again off the torrent, 3rd off the download server, just now I switched to 32bit from the torrent. All have a problem at the very end of install with removing a package which causes some huge problem when I reboot. [05:06] Not intentionally [05:07] Scorch2: well, either you were, or you werent [05:07] Hi all [05:07] Omen20: what package, why is it being removed? [05:07] Nothing shows in my D.L file, but the sys monitor show crazy use [05:07] how do i disable the 60 second wait/message when shutting down? === john is now known as Guest37046 [05:07] hi there [05:08] here is the error I get around 97 or 98% [05:08] i have no mail command at shell prompt [05:08] whenever i try to mount my ext3 partition it asks me the root password, how to remove the security option [05:08] how do i install it [05:08] Ok, Indy. I WAS d/L. Now can I quit [05:08] nitin: i was wondering that as well. [05:08] E:sub-process usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) [05:08] i want to enable extra visual effects but i keep getting "desktop effects could not be enabled" i need help please [05:08] using /etc/fstab we can do it [05:09] but that will mean it will mount during boot time [05:09] I dont want that :) want the fast startup :) [05:09] nitin: there is a "noauto" fstab option [05:09] ok lemme check [05:09] Newbie: do you have hardware drivers enabled? === kiran is now known as Guest4874 [05:09] k [05:10] yes...nvidia [05:10] Some of the times it has explicitly told me there was a problem with the language packages. One time I rebooted and everything worked but I had no keyboard support and I had gotten the error during install. Since then I have not even gotten it to restart. [05:10] no help? [05:10] !nvidia | Newbie [05:10] Newbie: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [05:10] Scorch2: you're not making sense [05:10] wsere you just downloading, or were you UPGRADING your OS. [05:10] Newbie: usually that error means there is a 3d accel problem [05:11] how do i disable the 60 second wait/message when shutting down? the right click menu doesn't show preferences/edit anymore. [05:11] so what do i do please? [05:11] I want to kill all processes and quit whatever is happening with the 9.10 install [05:11] if i want to wipe my drive completely i can use dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda is that correct? do i need to add anythingabout block size? or can i omit that [05:11] hey people [05:12] quick question about update manager [05:12] What is super frustrating is that Intrepid and Jaunty worked like a dream. So easy. [05:12] Scorch2: well, you can try.. but depending on how far along it is, it might have already bricked your OS. [05:12] If I do kill, will it create other problems? [05:12] IndyGunFreak: I can't get it work [05:12] IndyGunFreak: I get the same error :( [05:13] Flare183: hmm, that sucks... gotta be a way around that.. broadcoms are awful common [05:13] IndyGunFreak: Yeah I know [05:13] Newbie: is there more than one driver version listed in hardware drivers? you can try switching among those [05:13] Upgraded to Karmic and can not login, any suggestions? Already ran apt-get clean. [05:13] Flare183: i'd be willing to bet it will get worked out within a week or so. [05:13] So Indy, you think I am screwed, or do I have to kill the process to find out? [05:13] IndyGunFreak: Yup, eventually the open source guys will get it working [05:14] Scorch2: you can kill it, just saying don' be surprised at all if your machine won't start when you restart... [05:14] From what I can tell, Karmic is a dud and I'll probably stick with Jaunty at this point. [05:14] Scorch2: how far along was the ugprade? [05:14] Fabulous! [05:14] Hm. [05:14] my update manager is not allowing me to update the following packages: qemu, gsteramer1.10-1plugins-bad, and xserver-xorg-input-all. should i be worried? it has been suggesting the updates for a few months, but it doesn't let me update them. i'm running karmic [05:15] srry for butting in like that [05:15] Question: Would my Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) work? [05:15] Anyone? [05:15] hey i noticed with karmic theres that new app application.. and on the ubuntu website there was a lot mentioned about karmic including new tools for developers to create new ubuntu apps easily [05:15] what are these tools? [05:15] Flare183: i would think so. [05:15] I'm trying to watch a DVD, ave installed the restricted extras, and still no joy (players insist they canft read the resource) altho Ubuntu asks if I want to watch the movi [05:15] Hi, I was stupid and ran the Karmic update over an NX session. Periodically I got "xlib extension generic event extension missing on display" errors during the upgrade but nothing seemed to fail. However several things are broken, such as Avahi --it fails to start properly on boot, but restarting it manually makes it work. Are problems with the upgrade likely my issue? [05:15] IndyGunFreak: Ok, because that's what my laptop has, and I'm using my laptop right now to be in here [05:16] Flare183: i would think you should be able tog et your laptop online via wireless w/ a intel device. [05:16] EntityRebor: u need to add some line to your sources list, and install libdvdcss2. google libdvdcss2, u should be able to find a tutorial [05:16] I can not tell. I don't know where to find a progress ap [05:16] k [05:16] IndyGunFreak: If I upgrade to Karmic it will? [05:17] Flare183: it should work in jaunty [05:17] EntitiyReborn: libdvdcss2 [05:17] Is it illegal to download music videos from youtube or veoh and then convert it to ipod/mp3/psp player format? [05:17] IndyGunFreak: It does. lol That's what I'm using right now XD [05:17] ShapeShifter499: no [05:17] EntityReborn: easiest way to install libdvdcss2, is to add the medibuntu repo and install it.. http://www.medibuntu.org [05:17] Flare183: oh i see.. you're saying would it work under Karmic [05:17] hi [05:17] IndyGunFreak: Exactly. [05:17] entityreborn: here's a tutorial if you want at http://embraceubuntu.com/2005/12/04/libdvdcss2-and-w32codecs-for-ubuntu/ [05:17] it *should* i would think.. Intel usually has pretty solid support [05:18] thx [05:18] I have the libdvdcss4 one installed [05:18] woops [05:18] nope [05:18] thats read, not css [05:18] EntityReborn: dont' follow those instructions, they are for ubuntu 6.10 [05:18] anone have an opinion on whether I screwed up my system? [05:18] I have manually installed firefox 3.5.3 and now the update manager shows to upgrade firefox to 3...How I stop the update manager to stop notifying about the updates I dont want to install? [05:19] IndyGunFreak, I see that :) [05:19] shankhs: Remove the firefox 3 package. [05:19] devon: that site is horribly outdated [05:19] edbian: how to do that? [05:19] EntityReborn: use medibuntu, it will set you up.. http://www.medibuntu.org [05:19] shankhs: the package manager will only notify about packages that are installed on the system. [05:19] It looks like it has ended. How do I tell for sure? [05:19] i have already installed 3.5.3 [05:19] shankhs: It's important that you perform that upgrade anyway; Firefox is used as a library by many applications, so leaving a vulnerable old version around is a very bad idea. [05:19] gotcha [05:19] shankhs: Do you want CLI instructions or GUI ? [05:20] thanks for info, got to go, bye [05:20] Scorch2: restart and get really upset when you have a grub error. [05:20] shankhs: Alternatively, upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10 which has Firefox 3.5.4 built in. [05:20] wgrant: I have ff3.5.3 and the ff 3 version I have just kept as a backup [05:20] shankhs: What wgrant said is probably true. I'm not sure want depends on firefox if anything but in any event apt-get will tell you :) [05:20] shankhs: I am willing to bet it is safe to remove firefox 3 [05:20] shankhs: If you are using an Ubuntu version othe rthan 9.10, Firefox 3.0 will be used by other applications. [05:20] Gee Indy that's really helpful [05:21] Scorch2: well.. you asked [05:21] shankhs: If you do not upgrade Firefox 3.0 when asked to, those other applications will remain vulnerable. [05:21] Question - what's the command in terminal to see what unix users are currently existent on the system? [05:21] wgrant: What other apps depend on firefox? [05:21] Roasted you have to look at /etc/passwd file [05:21] Roasted: That's usually the best way to see ALL users [05:21] edbian: wgrant : does that mean that I have no way to stop update manager from notifying until I remove the package from the system? [05:21] shankhs: That's my understanding yes. [05:21] edbian - so if I ran nano /etc/passwd I can see what users are there? [05:22] It's been a real pleasure. Chau [05:22] We cannot install kubuntu/xubuntu from a CD (ONLY)! I'm tired of trying now. 3 days of my life gone for this [05:22] edbian: They don't any more depend on firefox itself, as such. They depend on xulrunner, but that has the same effect. [05:22] Roasted: /etc/passwd is a file. It lists all the users on the system and info about each user [05:22] shankhs: That's correct. it is a rather important security update. [05:22] wgrant: IC :) [05:22] how can I make ubuntu to ask for a password everytime I want to mount an ntfs partition? [05:22] revaant, why would you try for that long without doing something significantly different? [05:22] is it an option in fstab? [05:23] merma: I think its somewhere in the sudoers file but you shouldn't edit it unless you know what you're doing [05:23] Ok, that worked, for VLC (Media player is still complaining can't read from resource) but the video is extremely choppy. Any waY I can reduce this? [05:23] because i thought I can download Alternates of all ubuntu Distros and have all the packages to install! [05:23] wgrant: pretty strange what if I remove firefox completely that is I chose not to keep any version of ff then some apps will not work? Which apps , can you be more specific please? [05:23] It [05:24] question: I have compiz installed and I checked the desktop cube option and went to its properties and set the key bindings to ctrl f11. Nothing happens when i hit ctrl f 11 [05:24] EntityReborn, you can change the video preferences to a different video output [05:24] I used to run linux mint [05:24] kde version [05:24] and that plamsa version ran the desktopo cube fine [05:24] now im on ubunto 9 gnome desktop, and no go [05:24] how do i update my grub to recognize new kernels and operating systems? currently, i have 3 OS installed on my system: ubuntu, debian and windows and my MBR configured to boot ubuntu [05:24] shankhs: The help application is one important thing in the default installation. There are numerous others. [05:24] gutsy: "sudo update-grub" I believe ;) [05:25] hi all [05:25] wgrant: so there is no way to remove ff completely? [05:25] edbian: thanks [05:25] is anybody know about vmware server on centos 5.4 [05:25] shankhs, why so adamant to remove it? [05:25] sohrab: try #centos? [05:26] porter1: just for the sake of knowledge and some curiousity [05:26] shankhs: No. Its libraries are a core part of many desktop applications at this point. [05:26] porter1: i think i should know whats in my desktop [05:26] any ideas on my cpmpiz problem? [05:26] shankhs: If you "sudo apt-get remove firefox" you won't be able to run it. The binary for firefox will not be on your system. Some of the config files will be left over and many of the other packages firefox needs to run will be left over because other applications use them as well. (xulrunner is an example) [05:26] compiz [05:26] shankhs, I'm not arguing that. I was simply wondering so that I could provide a better response for your question. [05:26] helloooooooo [05:27] sohrab: He [05:27] !hello | sohrab [05:27] sohrab: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out.

[05:28] porter1: I am not taking it as an argument either, i was just curious because it has been 3 yrs , i have installed and removed many apps but I never touched ff. [05:28] Ubuntu 9.10 seems to have some problems with mobile internet? [05:28] ziggy_: do u have nvidia? my proprietary nvidia driver has a little config app that lets me do that [05:28] wgrant: edbian : porter1 : thank you everybody have a good day [05:28] I am unable to connect through it [05:28] h4r1: What type of modem?

[05:29] i have a ATI CARD WITH ONLY 128 MEG raddion 4250 [05:29] can anyone tell me why desktop cube from compiz runs great on linux mint, but in ubuntu i cant get it to initiate with the key bindings i set? [05:29] ziggy_: As long as you're not using the proprietary NVIDIA driver, System->Preferences->Display should allow you to set up multiple monitors. [05:29] Hi guys [05:29] hi guys! :D [05:30] h4r1: You are possibly hitting bug #446146, which should have a fix pushed out very soon. [05:30] I have a problem. Im trying to upgrade using alternate cd.

I added one just now. T he one just now does not have a home directory, while the 4 from earlier do - yet all 5 never logged in. Do users get a home directory after rebooting?? [05:32] perfect [05:32] Ok, I've been trying to file share between my two ubuntu computer for a while. I can access all the shared files on my windows computer, but not on the Ubuntu one =\ [05:32] my drivers are the normal ones [05:32] noidea_`: how did you "add" the user? [05:32] Scunizi_: us.archive.ubuntu.com hangs for apt-get :/ [05:33] Scunizi_: i've tried rebooting and everything [05:33] :/ how possible is it that my drive's speed is the issue? [05:33] Blue1, I don't quite know what that is. [05:33] Scunizi_: so no luck trying to apt-get update, etc. [05:33] is compiz only for kde or does gnome use it as well? [05:33] would anyone know what cause the upgrade to stall at "getting new packages" using alternate cd? [05:33] I noticed that if I disable sound, it seems to have no problem [05:33] I just right clicked the file and said share. [05:33] Poyntz: That mirror is horribly overloaded. [05:33] noidea_`: sorry then I can't help if you don't know what you did. [05:33] Poyntz: It's a problem at the server end, not yours. Perhaps try a different mirror. [05:33] i usually edit the xorg.conf file [05:33] Ubuntu 9.10's release is too much for many mirrors, again :( [05:33] hello [05:33] but i cant find it.. :( [05:33] wgrant: can you help me out there?

[05:40] poyntz: and that final / might need to be /g (e.g. sudo sed -i -e 's/us.archive.ubuntu.com/archive.ubuntu.com/g' /etc/apt/sources.list) [05:40] wgrant: how can i dump the running config?

I'm running chromium and wondering if i should migrate to chrome [05:42] devon: kewl [05:42] lstarnes, i got the alt cd thinking it may be fast :(. I think im probably doing something wrong though. Not sure what it is [05:42] C-S-B: Chromium is open source and less likely to spy on you, IMO. [05:42] Im following upgrade instructions however [05:42] Dasda: just let it run.. [05:43] wgrant, cheers. Is chrome more developed yet? [05:43] Dasda: I've had problems with the upgrade - so I backed everything up, and did a clean install [05:43] Blue1: im running 185 [05:43] wgrant: now it hangs on au.archive.ubuntu.com :/ [05:43] Do anyone of you know where the log gets generated if I try to connect mobile internet using ubuntu karmic koala? [05:43] C-S-B: They are based on the same codebase. Chrome just has a few extra proprietary features and Google branding.

[05:52] hi guys. how well does the Intel ® Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 4500MHD card perform ? [05:52] [V]ortex`, it just works sometimes [05:52] <[V]ortex`> merma: did the problem carry over from 9.04? [05:52] pshr_: wondering that one myself. [05:52] is it comparable to any nvidia cards ? [05:52] [V]ortex`, no, its new for 9.10 [05:52] sobersabre: Old ones, yes. [05:52] <[V]ortex`> merma: this is bad... :( [05:52] sobersabre: But nothing really new.

[05:53] live cd gives option for B43 or STA / yes wfi button is on / hp pavilion dv5t [05:53] [V]ortex`, indeed [05:53] sobersabre: 'old ones' being a few years old. [05:53] and also there are unwanted links to applications in the places menu in the panel at the top, is there a way to remove them ? [05:53] psinetic: sudo apt-get build-essential.. that's the compiler files. use gedit, nano, vim, vi etc for writing code. [05:53] wgrant: how "old" ? I'm no gamer, for me geforce 7xxxx is more than enough. [05:53] brandon___: that has nothing to do w/ anything.. with what broadcom device you have [05:53] which broadcom do you have? [05:53] IndyGunFreak: broadcom BCM4312 [05:53] Scunizi_, i'm not a pro at code writing, i'm wanting something that can help me along. Thanks for the compiler files. [05:53] thank you.. hold on a second [05:54] wgrant: now i get some error message 'Duplicate sources.list entry... (archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_karmic_universe_binary-i386_Packages). what should I do here? [05:54] how do i delete a folder that is not empty [05:54] sobersabre: I don't know. The latest 3D games I've run on mine are from 2004, but they run perfectly. [05:54] brandon___: do you have internet access thats not wireless?

Open up and pastebin the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list [05:54] sobersabre: Yes. [05:54] Scunizi_, E: Invalid operation build-essential [05:54] meway: rm -rf -- do NOT do this at root!

[05:55] kk thx later [05:55] I mean to buy one. [05:55] meway: I've come close a few times... [05:55] sobersabre: Mine does, yes. You have to enable it in the BIOS, but that's trivial. [05:55] sobersabre: (Lenovo ThinkPad T400, here) [05:55] hi can someone please tell me how I can connect Ubuntu 9.10 to Win7 for file sharing? I tried but it asks for pass [05:55] T400... OK. [05:55] psinetic: when you sudo apt-get install? or after? if your typing build-essential after install you won't get anything.. it's a collection of different cli programs.. ./config, make, make install etc.. [05:55] i've installed ubuntu karmic 64 bit. when trying to install flashplugin-nonfree, it seems to pull in 32 bit libraries and nspluginwrapper. This seems to suggest that it is installing the 32bit flash plugin. Why isn't 64bit plugin installable from synaptic? [05:55] blue1: anyways brb gotta restart to finish changing my driver [05:55] can anyone help me wats the command to install xbmc [05:56] devonL okay [05:56] Scunizi_, i'm new at ubuntu, i really have no idea what you're saying.

I have a usb sound card that seems to work (`cat /bin/bash > /dev/dsp1` gives me the hiss), but the alsa mixer doesn't list USB Audio as a choice under Sound Cards [05:56] psinetic: What language do you want to program in? [05:56] how do i change my bootup screen to xubuntu from ubuntu? by that i mean the load up bar screen [05:56] wgrant: http://pastebin.com/F3a580b2a [05:56] redsix, amd athlon 64x2 [05:56] IndyGunFreak: no [05:56] wgrant, as many as possible really.

[05:57] wgrant, i'm wanting to learn programming [05:57] yes [05:57] psinetic: build-essential is a short cut install name when using the terminal to install a bunch of packages that comprise a working setup for compiling code.. [05:57] brandon___: i'm pretty sure this will work for your card... http://es-la.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=167701472697&comments&ref=mf [05:57] what is the package for latest flash in 64-bit ubuntu? [05:57] Scunizi_, so it's not a program, it's a command to compile with? [05:58] how do i change my bootup screen to xubuntu from ubuntu? by that i mean the load up bar screen [05:58] adobe-flashplugin? [05:58] psinetic: Aha. Python is probably a good one to get started with -- it's easy to learn, all the stuff you need is already installed. Try some of the links on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PythonRecipes [05:58] python is always good [05:58] Hello. How can I install only grub from the ubuntu livecd? [05:59] wgrant: did the pastebin link work? === SporkWitch1 is now known as SporkWitch [05:59] poyntz: Oops, got distracted. Yes, it did (after correcting capitalisation). Looking now. [05:59] wgrant: sorry about that lol [05:59] can anyone please help me with the networking thing? [05:59] are apt-get dist-upgrade and upgrading from update manager same ? [05:59] poyntz: I think line 63 is the problem; try commenting that out. [05:59] natschil, what do you want to do exactly? [06:00] wgrant: k brb [06:00] pshr_: No! The former is unsupported, and will more than likely break your system. [06:00] pshr_: If you want to do an upgrade from the command line, use 'do-release-upgrade' [06:00] blue1: ok i'm back [06:00] ill try it out [06:00] wgrant, well i'm looking for one piece of software that could be used to write the code in, compare it, compile it, test it, everything. but not just one code, multiple types of code. I'm thinking along the lines of windows' "DreamWeaver" program (or is it "DreamViewer"). [06:00] devon: hope that stabilises for you [06:00] psinetic: Adobe DreamWeaver is for designing web pages. I'm not sure it's what you mean. [06:00] um, wow [06:01] merma: my grub is completely screwed up, so I need to somehow install it again. [06:01] psinetic, so you want an IDE [06:01] blue1: wow [06:01] blue1:very different [06:01] wgrant, any other options along with do-release-upgrade ? [06:01] devon: hookahed on fonix, werked 4 me! [06:01] devon: different - how? [06:01] blue1:glxgears is a lot faster [06:01] pshr_: Nothing you need unless you know that you want to do something special. [06:01] natschil, yeah, this is quite common, there are tons and tons of posts on google about this [06:01] wgrant, it shows no new releases found [06:01] natschil: on 9.04, or 9.10 [06:01] merma: I can't find a good one ough. [06:02] IndyGunFreak: 9.10 [06:02] pshr_: Which version of Ubuntu are you using? 8.04? [06:02] blue1: but now im using xchat irc and text appearing at the bottom of the screen is all messed up [06:02] and i am in 9.04 and 9.10 is release [06:02] devon: slower for me - for me I think the 185 driver just taxes the the hell out of the gpu -- can you see what your temp is? [06:02] 9.04 wgrant [06:02] !grub2 | natschil the tutorial to reinstall is near the bottom [06:02] natschil the tutorial to reinstall is near the bottom: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [06:02] i want to upgrade to 9.10 [06:02] blue1:holy crap its at 95 deg [06:02] pshr_: i wouldn't [06:02] pshr_: Hmmm.

[06:02] blue1: no thats c [06:02] blue1: !!! [06:03] devon: you should kill glxgears [06:03] hi, i try to make my own xorg.conf file and i failed... [06:03] wgrant: because of the train wreck the upgrade process has been for many.. i clean installed, and everything was fine [06:03] how do i change my bootup screen to xubuntu from ubuntu? by that i mean the load up bar screen [06:03] psinetic, integrated development environment [06:03] i want 1240x1028 Resolution [06:03] blue1: good idea :p [06:03] IndyGunFreak: Most upgrades went fine. [06:03] can anyone please help me? [06:03] lol, wgrant which means little if you're not one fo the most [06:03] IndyGunFreak: Better to probably have a successful upgrade than to definitely reinstall.

[06:04] devon: glxgears is a btfw programme for the gpu [06:04] blue1: yeah [06:04] wgrant: i guess thats a matter of opinion, i'd rather jsut reinstall, rather than brick my system, then reinstall [06:04] simo_, we need details...

Any one who could tel me the path or run the command sudo -u gdm gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename and give me the output please [06:05] merma, well i know that. i just want to have the option to get more in the same app if i want [06:05] psinetic, and start learning python, thats a good start [06:05] !upgrade [06:05] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [06:05] how to give permission to all users to access raw1394 module?

[06:14] redsix: I have an amd here... [06:14] flame: that can't be done [06:14] flame: but you can have its launchers use the default firefox logo [06:15] lstarnes: even though i have installed firefox-branding? [06:15] flame: you can also have it report as firefox in the useragent string [06:15] I still cannot get Ubuntu to see my hardware. I have tried everything I can think of. [06:15] Blue1 i have 9.10 running perfectly on my AMD laptop [06:15] flame: there's a setting in about:config for the useragent [06:15] flame: Mozilla restricts distributors from calling browsers Firefox unless they review all of the patches and authorize the binaries. [06:15] fun... I'm at Miramar... just wanna give a oohrah to u as well... gnite all [06:15] b0w: no such package [06:15] redsix: my amd works well -- [06:15] redsix: you are using the Adobe one right? i'm running 64 bit and i don't have any trouble [06:15] the screen that is up before the user/password login, thats the screen i wanna change, how do i do that? [06:15] flame: Note that Ubuntu 9.10 has Firefox 3.5.4 built in, so you should consider upgrading. [06:15] markatto: compizconfig-settings-manager [06:15] i need to change it from ubuntu to xubuntu [06:16] I really need some suggestions because I hate not having audio on here. [06:16] wgrant: how do i upgrade then?

[06:17] redsix: you've done this yes? sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [06:17] flame: What is calling itself Shiretoko? [06:17] in previous ubuntu-releases firefox was called firefox [06:17] the screen that is up before the user/password login, thats the screen i wanna change, how do i change it from ubuntu to xubuntu? [06:17] markatto: simple-ccsm maybe [06:17] flame: which version are you using now? [06:17] flame: And Firefox 3.5 in Ubuntu 9.10 does call itself Firefox. [06:17] wgrant: firefox, i have installed firefox-3.5 as well as firefox-3.5-branding [06:18] flame: Which version does 'apt-cache policy firefox-3.5' say that you have installed? [06:18] redsix: its somewhere, just wait i'll find it :p [06:18] Installed: 3.5.5~hg20091028r26506+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~umd1 [06:18] Blue1 says unable to lock the directory when i try that [06:18] flame: Ah. That's a nightly build from ubuntu-mozilla-daily's PPA? [06:19] I use "aplay -l" in the terminal, and it shows that OS sees my card. However, in the Sound Perferences, it does not show any hardware at all. [06:19] redsix: sounds like you've got another update running somewhere... [06:19] oh! [06:19] now i understand :) [06:19] flame: you should use the official version in the repos [06:19] okay taking a break -- need 5 back in a few [06:19] redsix: right here http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ there is a menu, one of the choices is .deb for ubuntu [06:19] redsix: at least for me [06:19] so i just have to remove some software sources and reinstall? [06:20] The only way that I am able to get the sound to work is to use this command "sudo alsa force-reload". However, when I reboot, I do not have sound. [06:20] like the more the orange bar fills up the closer it is to booting to the desktop? i wanna change it to xubuntu bar [06:21] redsix: adobe says you can just sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin [06:21] redsix: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/productinfo/instructions/ [06:21] flame: Grab http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Exorg-edgers/ppa-purge/ubuntu/download/debian.tormod%40gmail.com-20091011191725-u3ci0hcg70ai5oed/ppapurge-20090729132438-jayqxaeub1gf2z3t-3/ppa-purge. That will remove the PPA and downgrade its packages for you. [06:21] wgrant: my main issue was getting xserver up and running. i was told that apt-get update && ... upgrade && ...dist-upgrade might fix it. unfortunately now, whilst you solution to get apt-get update working without universe worked (thanks), nothing apparently needs to be updated, and xserver is still broken [06:21] poyntz: did you install one of the proprietary graphics drivers just before it broke? [06:22] Blue1, devon i just ran sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree and it's installing a load of stuff so that might fix it, DL is slow.. [06:22] wgrant: nope. just let update-manager handle everything [06:22] poyntz: Huh. What exactly did you do before it broke? [06:22] wgrant: thanks, removing the software sources and reinstalling worked :) [06:22] flame: Excellent. [06:22] all I did was upgrade to karmic [06:22] wgrant: then on reboot everything stuffed up [06:22] redsix: ok good luck, if that doesn't work try adobe-flashplugin [06:22] what is the differente between vbox-ose and vbox-bin? u guys know that? [06:22] poyntz: Well, that's a pretty big upgrade. Are you using proprietary graphics drivers at all? [06:23] blue1: redsix: brb restarting again... [06:23] Whats the command to add a new gruop to linux in the terminal? [06:23] wgrant: nope. the ones that ubuntu supplies [06:23] maybe that's why empathy is behaving weird too [06:23] wgrant: i've got an nvidia geforce go 7400 if that helps === sigod_ is now known as sigod [06:23] have anybody found a solution or kind of workaround for google chrome/chromium browser not registering clicks in falsh player [06:24] poyntz: So you never installed a restricted driver for it using the Hardware Drivers application? [06:24] om26er, i think that problem applies to firefox as well [06:24] what package is gnome in? used to be called ubuntu-desktop === wolf_pup is now known as wolf_pup-sleep [06:24] merma: firefox works fine [06:24] robacarp: It's not 'in' any one package in particular, but ubuntu-desktop pulls in most of the GNOME packages. [06:24] back [06:25] wgrant: may have been restricted. not sure. it was version 177 i think... not sure of what. I needed it to get visual effects working [06:25] poyntz: Ah. That is the restricted driver, which I've heard breaks upgrades sometimes. [06:25] I'll have to hand you off to somebody else here; I don't know the proprietary nvidia driver well. [06:25] the us mirror is slow can someone give it a kick please [06:25] wgrant: oh. thanks anyhow [06:25] what package is gnome in? used to be called ubuntu-desktop wgrant thats it, thanks [06:26] Question - how do I add a user to a group in terminal? [06:26] wgrant: unless. you can tell me how to disable it so I can use gnome-desktop [06:26] redsix: Try using an alternate mirror. The US mirror is taking incredibly heavy load at the moment. [06:26] Roasted: sudo adduser USER GROUP [06:26] wgrant: actually. there's a bigger issue here that i forgot to address [06:26] wgrant: i can only use karmic on recovery mode [06:26] redsix: don't forget to restart your browser after it instals (btdt) [06:26] blue1: redsix: ok i'm back how's the install going redsix? [06:26] wgrant upgrade to 180 driver [06:27] slow............... 52kb/s [06:27] for nvidia [06:27] poyntz: What breaks if you don't use recovery mode? [06:27] wgrant: if i try to use the normal mode, the screen flashes and enters an infinite loop of junk [06:27] poyntz: That'd be a broken nvidia driver... [06:27] redsix: sounds like fun :p [06:27] redsix: I was getting 10 k/b dl ubuntu the other day - took 28 hours to dl the iso [06:27] thanks wgrant! [06:27] wgrant: even if it only starts after that AppArmour thing loads? [06:27] poyntz: What if you 'sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-177' and reboot? [06:27] poyntz: That's around when X, and thus the broken driver, starts. [06:27] i'll try. thanks [06:28] blue1: redsix: do u have dial up or something? [06:28] Blue1 that fixed it - sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [06:28] woohoooooooooooooo i got video [06:28] wgrant: holy shit, you helped me with two problems at once :D [06:28] redsix: you owe me a cup of coffee or I'll settle on a friend add on fb if you re there [06:29] i had installed a ppa version of empathy as well [06:29] flame: Empathy was that same problem? [06:29] redsix: awesome. quick question, does it allow you to interact with it? like clicking on stuff? [06:29] yea [06:29] wgrant: apparently it isn't installed [06:29] flame: Odd. that's working fine for me. [06:29] redsix: way to go! [06:29] thanks for help guys [06:29] redsix: cuz my flash only intermittently responds to mouseclicks [06:29] it didn't integrate with the panels as it should [06:29] redsix: using medibuntu? [06:29] ive setup a kiosk type setup where 1 account is locked down including removing all the panels.. is there a way to setup a wireless connection on this kiosked accounts without panels? only thing i can think of is a shortcut to the wifi configuration app.. does that make sense? [06:29] where is xorg.conf in the karmic koala? [06:30] shkiper: it's not present by default [06:30] shkiper: Same place as usual (/etc/X11/xorg.conf), but you shouldn't need one. [06:30] devon: amd64? [06:30] shkiper: but you can make one manually in /etc/X11/xorg.conf [06:30] flame: Ah, right, the libindicate patch is not in the PPA. [06:30] wgrant: is there anything I could pastebin to you that might lead you in the right direction in terms of knowing exactly what the problem is? like a log or something? [06:30] poyntz: dpkg -l | grep nvidia [06:30] wgrant: yep. :( [06:30] wgrant: [06:30] wgrant: k [06:31] devon: I found that same thing sometimes. It's very strange. [06:31] Isgren: thanks [06:31] devon: On i386 it works fine :/ [06:31] shkiper, actually xorg.conf is present by default [06:31] merma: It's not. [06:32] wgrant, it is on my installation [06:32] Do you guys think Windows is better than Ubuntu in terms of overall functionality? (using a Non-biased point of view aka not by your own preferences) [06:32] wgrant: grr it's annoying [06:32] merma: With some kind of proprietary driver, or an upgrade from 3ish releases ago? === Amit is now known as Guest21251 [06:32] Anonymous: i think it depends on the intended function [06:32] merma: It's certainly not present in default 9.04 or 9.10 installations. [06:32] wgrant, ah you're right, probably the nvidia driver [06:32] hey [06:32] That's why I mentioned overall. [06:32] in karmic scroll through workspace with mousewheel is disabled. any fix avail? [06:32] Blue1: Could you also tell me the default gdm gtk_theme? If you have not modifyed it you could run sudo -u gdm gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_theme [06:33] Just common usage, nothing advanced. [06:33] lots of support in here [06:33] I like this :P [06:33] Anonomys: for the average user, windoze is currently better. but ubuntu is better if you are at least a little geeky [06:33] i want to install a .bin file [06:33] <[uNF]> how's it going, has anyone had a problem with a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 where the SSH don't work, even after re-installing openssh-server?? [06:33] and I dont know how [06:33] Anonymous: i dont think it can be generalised like that. [06:33] Fager: i think I posted that earlier [06:33] silvr: You probably don't actually want to. what are you trying to do? [06:33] Install Adobe AIR [06:34] wgrant: http://pastebin.com/f27e0af62 [06:34] anonymous: Ubuntu has so far served me very well keeping spyware off of my laptop and providing a speedy internet portal for my wife [06:34] Blue1: I must have logged out before that [06:34] silvr: Try http://www.sizlopedia.com/2008/04/06/how-to-install-adobe-air-on-ubuntu/ [06:34] fager: HumanLogin [06:34] i love website URL's like that [06:34] Thanks man! [06:35] it further emphasizes the "lmgtfy" thing [06:35] :P [06:35] Poyntz: OK, that's useful. But I forget how to safely disable the proprietary driver; I recommend asking the channel in general. [06:35] Fager: you are welcome [06:35] quick question. Where the heck do I now define my domainname? [06:35] !hostname | Viking667 [06:35] Viking667: Use hostname to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. [06:36] *nod* [06:36] how do you safely disable a proprietry driver? [06:36] but that gives me just the hostname, not the full name fatty.flying-brick.vpn [06:37] anonomys: i was raised on mac and later switched to ubuntu, so i have never really had to deal with windoze, except for at school. so i guess i got a prettyt privileged childhood. so ubuntu blows windows out of the watter, but then again anything will. windoze is a joke, and its only momentum that is keeping them where they are. [06:37] I have a jaunty to karmic upgrade that has stalled after getting to "file 1605 of 1605" in step "Getting New packages" any suggestions ? [06:37] I just changed hostname at /etc/hostname and now it says sudo: unable to resolve hostname: Ubuntu [06:37] totem crashes on avis.... [06:37] Merlin_: heh. [06:37] does ./ denote my home folder [06:38] silvr: . is the current directory. [06:38] Merlin_: you will need to boot into recovery mode and make sure that the name in /etc/hostname is also in /etc/hosts with an ip of 127.0.1.1 [06:38] silvr: ~ is your home directory. [06:38] 127.0.0.1 [06:38] Hello [06:38] Viking667: Both work. [06:38] wgrant: well, i like being able to click on flash applets. i guess i could switch to 32 bit and hope that they fix flash sometime before the year 2036... :p but that would be too much work. [06:38] Anonymous: i like eye candy and what i did to my xfce can't be done in windows.. so.. [06:39] its been a long time since ive used a terminal of any flavor [06:39] lots of stuff "can't be done" in Windows... at least, not without third-party programs. [06:39] skysong: anonomys: cuz eyecandy totally defines an os :) (sadly, it actually does.) [06:39] anyone here has an intel card and using it on 9.10???? [06:39] silvr: hah. And I've used nothing BUT terminals (and GUI) for over 15 years. [06:39] wgrant if you can upgrade to nvidia 180 [06:39] b0w: Me. [06:39] ... actually, longer than that. [06:39] devon: true.. still trying to have my pc look like a mac though:P [06:39] Tesssa: I have no nvidia cards. [06:39] wgrant: great, what can you say? working better [06:39] b0w: what intel card? hda intel? [06:39] ?? [06:39] oh sorry thought you had [06:39] b0w: Much much better than 9.04. [06:40] viking 667: same with ubuntu really, its mostly 3rd party apps assembled together into an os [06:40] devon: it's not so sad. the same trend carries into every market and every product [06:40] b0w: Unless you have something older than an i915 (i8xx) [06:40] skysong: lol [06:40] which desklet would you prefer for ubuntu ? [06:40] ubuntu 9.10 ? [06:40] wgrant: yeah mine too, but theres something weird, i dont know if u have compiz but when i try to enable the blur === Amit is now known as Guest15495 [06:40] Now it doesn't say it anymore. (I didn't use recovery. I just edited /etc/hosts) [06:40] wgrant: the system goes veeeeeeeery slow [06:40] Amit: you meant what *desktop*? then yes, it works fine for me [06:41] wgrant: ill have a hunt on google. thanks for the help. btw what's worth remembering from the pastebin I sent you? [06:41] Hello , there is some way to save definitions on a ubs live pen . because after shoutdown i got a config keybord layout , wirelss driver and everything again [06:41] Unable to execute, saying that my AdobeAIRInstaller.bin isnt there [06:41] no I meant desklet like gdesklet, adesklet ? [06:41] b0w: Older Intel cards don't do pixel shaders well, so blurs are very slow. [06:41] something to spice up my desktop [06:41] I chmod'd it +x and I see it when i DIR [06:41] I have an issue with Linux and youtube videos in fullscreen. In WinXP using Firefox, my comp handles it perfectly. In Ubuntu and firefox, my comp can't handle mouse movements while fullsize in yotuube. Other video formats workfine. [06:41] silvr: You have the capitalisation right? [06:41] ye[p [06:41] Is anybody using gmail notify [06:42] Guest15495: choose whichever suit you, the one you're more at ease using? [06:42] shwak: i geuss so. but eyecandy can't define ubuntu becasue its so customizable. it shouldn't define, because people can download themes. for example, i have full blown compiz-ness and this super badass theme called "slickness-black", but ubuntu doesn't look like that out of the box. it looks like a kids os out of the box. [06:42] I saved $180 on a win 7 upgrade... [06:42] Is anybody using gmail notify [06:42] my upgrade has stalled, which log do I see to work out why? [06:42] !offtopic | maonx [06:42] wgrant: how can i see what card i got exactly? [06:42] maonx: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [06:42] some way to save definitions on a ubs live pen . because after shoutdown i got a config keybord layout , wirelss driver and everything again .?is was a question sorry [06:42] devon: funny thing is ubuntu, to gentoo users, is a kids os:p [06:42] #offensive security [06:42] b0w: lspci | grep VGA [06:43] I like ubuntu [06:43] skysong: OTOH Gentoo, to Ubuntu users is an OS for irrational kids :P [06:43] skysong: ouch. then again, they wouldn't base backtrack 4 on a kids os now would they [06:43] I have installed Slackware/Mint/Debian/Ubuntu6~/Kubuntu9.10/Ubuntu 8.10 [06:43] lol wgrant :p [06:43] and so far i love Ubuntu 9.10 [06:43] I can't not set gmail notify [06:43] devon: I guess I had the wrong idea - you are right in that it shouldn't define it. I was speaking more towards the fact that it sells(in this case, gets downloaded and used ) [06:43] wgrant: thanks! 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) [06:44] wgrant: is that old? hehe [06:44] I hate Ubuntu 9.10! [06:44] So, this is odd. I installed 9.10 and there is no a /boot/grub/menu.lst file!? [06:44] i <3 ubuntu 9.10 [06:44] lizzzy: try grub.conf [06:44] aquachica: Why all the hate [06:44] i hate kubuntu [06:44] ubuntu 9.10 is probably the best linux experience so far [06:44] silvr: ive been on linux for 4-5 months now.. shifting from ubuntu 9.04 to sabayon and back to ubuntu now. I like it better and first thing is the people using it are just nice compared to the others. [06:44] b0w: That's an i945. It's not terribly old, but it's not new enough to have reasonable blur performance. [06:44] lizzzy: its name changed [06:44] well, I just hate KDE [06:44] will do that lstarnes / [06:44] b0w: Even brand new GM45s aren't great. [06:45] I have noticed a nicer atmosphere in the Ubuntu-environment :P [06:45] Ubuntu 9.10 has been good to me except for slightly unstable sound (I get a hissing sound when i turn my subwoofer down past 10%) my neighbors love the extra bass [06:45] wgrant: i see anyway i dont need the blur thing hehehe but would be nice to have it [06:45] shwak: yeah that does make sense. and everyone puts videos of their own ubuntu looks on youtube, so i guess in a way the sheer variation in itself defines it. [06:45] I had some serious driver issues [06:45] lizzzy: My audio was take away from me. 9.10 destroyed SCIM. My Network Manager/Connections changed into some horrible piece of .... that I cannot change broadcasters. [06:45] but once I remedied that with proprietary stuff [06:45] it got super [06:45] Hello Guys, I am running Ubuntu 9.10 32bit. I have installed and enabled nvidia driver 173 (Recommended). However, when I try to turn on desktop effects it wont let me... my pc has an integrated intel gpu, but i am using an nvidia geforce fx 5200 PCI card...... in other past versions of UBuntu it worked perfectly. Any hints??? thx!!! [06:45] What can Gentoo do that Ubuntu can't (I'm new to linux and asking genuinely, not trying to say that ubuntu is as good) [06:45] btw, it was a fresh install [06:45] aquachica: :( [06:46] aquachica: Ubuntu 9.10 starts the migration away from SCIM to iBus. [06:46] Daniel32708: did you reboot [06:46] yes [06:46] lizzzy: I was so much happier with 9.04. [06:46] devon: Recent WinXP convert (never going back) I admit, I tried linux after seeing the compiz cube...... [06:46] maybe you should do 185 [06:46] or 177 [06:46] please someone can give me an ansewar ? [06:46] Shwack: dunno.. tried gentoo only once.. i had a preference for slackware at that time [06:46] silvr: i only get in the list 173 and 96 [06:46] does update manager log upgrade steps ? [06:46] wgrant: I was able to get SCIM back. [06:46] What does sudo sshd-generate do? [06:46] My cube is backed by a fully connected 3d skydome image of greenlands glaciers [06:47] n I sent you? [06:47] Hello , there is some way to save definitions on a ubs live pen . because after shoutdown i got a config keybord layout , wirelss driver and everything again ? [06:47] aquachica: It's actually the opposite for me. 9.04 screwed up my audio, there was this unknown mouse delay and kde kept crashing. 9.10 fixed it all. [06:47] But I really hate the way the Network Manager/Connections works. I may switch to wicd. [06:47] shwak: must admit, thats what converted me... thats actually why i bought a duo core laptop with nvidia at all instead of just staying with our old 1.6 ghz mac with 750 something mb of ram === [1]sassyn is now known as sassyn [06:47] shwak: lol [06:47] adonai2009: we have seen your message, but it is possible that either nobody here knows an answer or someone is looking for one for you [06:47] lizzzy: I started on 8.10. I really didn't have issues with that OS. [06:48] So does anybody have any idea why my Ubuntu can't handle youtube videos in fullscreen as good as windows can? I've tried new/old firefox packages and nonfree plugin and all [06:48] daniel: I dont know brother, if it doesnt list other options, I know there is a ridiculously complicated nvidia walkthrough if you google it [06:48] I'm hoping there's quick fix [06:48] aquachica: I have switched to wicd back in 9.04 and never looked back [06:48] since i installed 9.10 nothing has crashed so far [06:48] silvr: thx man [06:48] lizzzy: I really feel like Ubuntu is being Microsoft-ish at the moment. [06:49] aquachica, why? [06:49] me too, only nexuiz won't work else everything runs just fine. [06:49] hipitihop: I am probably going to do that as soon as I get my audio back :: crosses fingers :: [06:49] i feel that too [06:49] ubuntu is waaay overprised [06:49] skysong, nexuiz works perfectly here [06:49] why is Ubuntu microsoftish? [06:49] prized* [06:49] not here:'( [06:49] flame loll [06:49] <_Dasda> ubuntu is awesome. i converted from xp last month (used windows all my life). I dont plan on going back. I have 9.04 and upgrading to 9.10 in process now. I dont even have issues with 9.04 at all [06:49] merma: Having all these issues feels like I am getting the "Blue Screen of Death". [06:49] aquachica: I started on feisty, loved it ever since :) [06:50] _Dasda, same - converted last week [06:50] is there an easy way to change the ubuntu logo in the menu bar? [06:50] it refuses to see my adobeairinstaller [06:50] i just installed 9.04 [06:50] merma: It's mostly the emotion that is starting to come out of me. [06:50] _Dasda, i hope you won't find problems in 9.10 neither [06:50] decided to wait untill 10.4 comes out in april 2010 looking at all the bugss in 9.10 [06:50] id much rather be in slackware now [06:50] flame:yes [06:50] <_Dasda> the only thing about windows which makes me consider is sometimes for school we get these asssignment cds which are only compatible with internetexplorer [06:50] flame: ubuntu tweaks [06:50] Tesssa: 'all the bugs'? [06:50] aquachica, yeah I understand [06:51] merma: I have Ubuntu 9.04 Remix on my netbook, and I love it. Just want to add Firefox 3.5. [06:51] _Dasda, how come they are only compatible with IE? [06:51] aquachica: microsoft-ish?? Lol. No way. Have you ever used vista? 9.10 is way more fun. [06:51] <_Dasda> merma: dunno why [06:51] _Dasda, you could try and use wine [06:51] Atleast kubuntu 9.10 is :) [06:51] merma: But I will not be adding 9.10 Remix to it any time soon. [06:51] aquachica: Ubuntu 9.10 has Firefox 3.5. You should consider upgrading. [06:51] <_Dasda> Ye i use WIne [06:51] aquachica: Why not? [06:51] yep looking at the people having problems with 9.10 asking help in here [06:51] <_Dasda> i lvoe the fact that there are no viruses on ubuntu [06:52] yet [06:52] _Dasda, it won't run in firefox? [06:52] Tesssa: No more than any other release. [06:52] <_Dasda> merma no [06:52] lizzzy: I used Vista a few times and was ready to use a baseball bat on it. Unfortunately, the laptop belonged to a friend. [06:52] will stick with 9.04 for the time being [06:52] aquachica: :p [06:52] wgrant: I was hoping to upgrade Firefox within 9.04. [06:52] Dear Friends Can Any body Tell me is there any Keylogger for ubuntu [06:53] Vista sucked windows 7 is much better but Ubuntu is still the best [06:53] aquachica, you can install firefox 3.5 in 9.04, its in the repos I think [06:53] lizzzy: And I don't want Windows 7 (Vista 2.0). [06:53] <_Dasda> im doing upgrade for now to 9.10 but plan to do a clean install when i have some time off school to take a few days to reconfigure things if needed [06:53] is doing a clean install better? [06:53] Dear Friends Can Any body Tell me is there any Keylogger for ubuntu [06:53] shwak: this is why fullscreen flash videos don't work... http://xkcd.com/619/ [06:53] yeah is there a keylogger for Linux? [06:53] <_Dasda> shwack, u get grub 2 and ext4 [06:53] merma: I will do that once I have calmed down. lol I have been on this audio-network-SCIM issue all day. [06:54] Dear Friends Can Any body Tell me is there any Keylogger for ubuntu [06:54] well im the kind of person ubuntu wants to attract millions like me all with home computers who use windows who just want to point and click [06:54] Whiper, there are, indeed [06:54] Devon: ha xkcd is the best [06:54] oh and i never had any problems with 9.04 [06:54] haha, that is true aquachica. But, I've been getting rave reviews about win7 [06:54] _dasda: Shwak: thats sorta bleeding edge stuff... there are still a lot of issues with ext4, [06:54] merma: Please tell me the name of application [06:54] kitsuneDr: i know i love it [06:54] Tesssa: Neither did I. [06:55] whisper she won't tell you [06:55] devon: lol good to know others are in the same boat - thank you [06:55] lstarnes: This is really odd, but I have no grub.conf in my boot/grub :( [06:55] up to know i cant get 9.10 to install [06:55] HEY PLEASE IT IS WHIPER FRNDS [06:55] Dasda, I installed ext 4 when I switched to linux in 9.04 [06:55] lizzzy: I am sure 7 is a lot stabler than Vista, but having to reload (and recheck for pirated software) is a real pain. [06:55] Devon: did you go to their site when geocities went under? [06:55] aquachica: It is. [06:56] kitsunedr: no, what happen? [06:56] <_Dasda> to truly tell you guys i dont see the need to upgrade to 9.10 but becasue there are no problems with 9.04 at all. However, I want to continue to experiment with linux and learn and best way to learn is keep messing up [06:56] Will there be no upgrade to Grub 2 unless you do a clean install? [06:56] still a reboot come on windows ;) [06:56] merma: Please tell me the name of application [06:56] lizzzy: My last Microsoft OS is XP. I am done with them. [06:56] Whiper, http://sourceforge.net/projects/lkl/files/ [06:56] anyone got any clue how come rhythmbox does not have themes? [06:56] eh win7 is good [06:56] Whiper, you'll need to compile it [06:56] lizzzy: Hence my frustration with 9.10. [06:56] oo [06:56] theme it your self [06:57] Tesssa: its good until you need to transfer >100GB from one hdd to another.. [06:57] new stacks, new sploits in win7 [06:57] Devon: the creator changed the site to look really messy and noobish like code showing it was hilarious because that's what some geocity sites looked like XD [06:57] Dasda, will there be an upgrade to grub anytime soon as I am already using ext4? [06:57] ah well i do have terragig HD big enough for me [06:57] not trying to be a fan boy but i like snow leopard more than win7 [06:57] merma [06:57] <_Dasda> Shwack, im not the best source. I have asked same question and people have told me that the only way is to do a clean install [06:58] kitsunedr: nice. did u notice the "the algorighm" text at the bottom of the page? [06:58] i do have a mac as well [06:58] <_Dasda> Shwack: what do you plan to do if u get Grub2? [06:58] Tesssa: yes but you tried transferring huge amount of stuffs from one hdd to another? [06:58] Dasda, thx. not really looking forward to doing clean installs of linux every time [06:58] hackintosh lol [06:58] tessa: high five! i am also split btwn mac and ubuntu! [06:58] merma: hey can you help to compile it since i am a beginner or provide me a .deb file [06:58] <_Dasda> Shwack: as far as im concerned Grub2 is not necessary for me [06:58] aquachica: My last MS 0S was MS ME (the millenium edition)!!! Never picked up the guts to go back. I use XP at my university. Better than ME, fo sho [06:58] not i dont have 2 hard drives so the problem didnt arise [06:58] _dasda: whats the advantage of grub2 again? [06:58] Whiper, did you download the tar file? [06:58] So, I don't have a menu.lst or a grub.conf file :( [06:58] <_Dasda> Devon: no clue bro [06:59] merma: yes [06:59] wow thanks merma I thought you weren't going to tell him but is this passable through the Internet [06:59] haha [06:59] merma: can we do a private chat [06:59] Back to Pidgin again! [06:59] Devon: no I didn't.... [06:59] Hey, does 9.10 use grub or grub-pc? [06:59] lizzzy: That's another thing I dislike about this newer version: the fact that they are no longer including Pidgin. [06:59] Whiper: synaptic has keylogger [07:00] _dasda: wow epic it has like image backgrounds and like almost a gui!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (i just googled it) [07:00] empathy was just a pain in the but. Not ready for use [07:00] aquachica: Quassel is not too bad. [07:00] please name it i will search [07:00] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vT_cQvWd9Sk [07:00] <_Dasda> devon: if grub has time to show images then that means its taking long. I dont want that then [07:00] <_Dasda> lol [07:00] but have been advised to wait untill april 2010 for 10.4 to come out [07:00] That video suggests and Upgrade to Grub2 is possible [07:00] Whiper: lkl [07:00] <_Dasda> right now my grub screen is like 2 secs [07:00] <_Dasda> saying grub loading. press esc to enter menu and 2 sec clock countdown [07:01] kitsunedr: the text says "We did not invent the algorithm. The algorithm consistently finds Jesus. The algorithm killed Jeeves. The algorithm is banned in China. The algorithm is from Jersey. The algorithm constantly finds Jesus. This is not the algorithm. This is close." its hijacking yahoo's ad campaign. [07:01] _dasda: but it looks so cooooooooool :) [07:01] what is the best hard drive partitioning tool [07:01] I hope 10.04 is much stabeler although I do like fedora slot too bad it doesn't have a wubi [07:01] vegombrei: gparted [07:01] #_Dasda go to menu.lst and change it [07:01] gparted [07:01] fedora 11 was very good [07:01] fedora 11 and ubuntu 9.10 tied up in my opinion [07:01] <_Dasda> Merlin: change what? [07:02] well it seems it will be the 18month release [07:02] merma: F11 is awesome. [07:02] Devon: lol [07:02] <_Dasda> what does f11 do? [07:02] who knows! [07:02] If anyone has some free time, id appreciate it if you could help me in pm. I just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 and i'm experiencing some trouble. Not a ubuntu noob but not an expert either. Thx a lot in advance. [07:02] <_Dasda> i learned alt +f2 today. kinda cool. its kinda like "run" for windows [07:03] Fedora 12 looks pretty impressive too very quick but the live cd had a lot of issues for me at least [07:03] _Dasda, press alt+ctrk F2 [07:03] no doubt the problems with 9.10 will be sorted by then [07:03] frankbro: what seem to be your problems? [07:03] _Dasda, you might like gnome-do [07:03] <_Dasda> merma yea i learned that today [07:03] gnome-do is a must [07:03] <_Dasda> C-S-B whats gnome-do? [07:03] frankbro: What kind of trouble? [07:03] sudo grub: command not found :( [07:03] gnome do? [07:04] speaking of booting (ok i was), my boot sequence is all messed up. anyone wanna help me? [07:04] thnak you any way [07:04] How do I create a multipart archive volume? I have a 1gb file that is just too large to fit on my USB drive, how do I split it up? It also needs to be able to merge back into a single file on windows :\ [07:04] the reason 9.10 has problems though is because it changed so many things [07:04] _Dasda, google it then install. it's great. run programs, open files and play music by typing what you want to do. [07:04] where's hte web interface to brwose packages? i can't find it [07:04] can someone help me sort out a kopete issue? having probs recieving incoming cam...i found out that i need libjasperl my question is how do I add this to PATH variable? [07:04] <_Dasda> let me google gnome-do [07:04] guys i removed the main panel by accident, is there anyway to recover it [07:04] _dasda: f11 they meant fedora 11 [07:05] <_Dasda> devon: oh ok [07:05] <_Dasda> C-S-B ye that sounds cool [07:05] _Dasda, install it :) you'll never use the menu again [07:05] _Dasda: sorry /ashamed/ ishall google first [07:05] Ok, so I'm having some grub issues. Should I install grub, grub-pc or grub2? [07:06] I found a better Grub2 Upgrade tutorial [07:06] So that "sudo grub" will work? [07:06] devon Dasda http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hlsK7q8uns&feature=related [07:06] lizzzy, grub2 working pretty well! [07:06] C-S-B: I installed it, but "sudo grub" won't work anymore :( [07:06] quimkaos: yes and no you can bring it back but it will be missing things and I don't know of any way to recover it besides adding a new panel [07:07] sorry for the disconnect, crappy internet. So like i said, if anyone can help me with a bug from upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10, would be appreciated. Thx in advance. [07:07] <_Dasda> what does grub 2 really do that grub1 cant? [07:07] lizzzy, sudo grub doesnt work in grub2 [07:07] frankbro, what bug? [07:07] Dasda http://techie-buzz.com/daily-linux/upgrade-to-grub2.html [07:08] Or if anyone knows anything about not being able to activate propritary driver in jockey-gtk [07:08] _Dasda, its a rewrite, it's better imo. booting iso's is a nice feature [07:08] I need some advice on removing a KDE installation from Ubuntu. [07:08] and ext4 boot partitions [07:08] <_Dasda> thanks shwack [07:08] Lavagolemking1: what do you want to leave behind? [07:08] Dasda: np [07:08] seams sudo debconf gnome-panel can work [07:08] lavagolemking1: omg so do i. i also installed xfce [07:08] Nothing, if possible. I want it back to running Gnome as it was when first installed. [07:09] ciclo: Did you get my last message? That I did install grub2, but sudo grub won't work. Also, I don't have a grub.conf or menu.lst file :( [07:09] lavagolemking: my startup screen says kubuntu, and my login screen says xubuntu. how about you? [07:09] My mother has sudo access, and my brother social engineered his way into her account (I'm away at school). [07:09] lizzy_ you dont have 'sudo grub' anymore or a menu.lst [07:09] My brother knows only enough to be dangerous, and she is computer illiterate. [07:09] lizzzy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hlsK7q8uns&feature=related [07:09] lizzzy_, with grub2 its different. [07:09] oh gnome-do is what sabayon has on start [07:10] quimkaos: right click on the other panel and add new [07:10] hello [07:10] C-S-B: sudo grub: command not found. Also, I got no menu.lst or grub.conf file :( [07:10] Problem is, my brother tried to install KDE as a pre-requisite for making Ubuntu "look like a Mac" and now no windows managers will load (at all). [07:10] hi [07:10] !hi | KitsuneDr [07:10] KitsuneDr: 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! [07:10] lizzzy_, thats correct, you have no menu.lst [07:10] I upgraded to karmic recently, and some of my games have become unusable [07:10] C-S-B: I don't have a grub.conf either [07:11] I think what's happening is that whenever the spacebar is down, mouse events are not generated [07:11] makes it impossible to play things like fps's [07:11] anyone have any thoughts? [07:11] mdgeorge1: you too? [07:11] lizzzy_, thats ok. try grub.cfg [07:11] KitsuneDr: ? [07:11] kewl C-S-B :) [07:11] I need to reverse the changes, removing anything related to KDE, so I can have GDM running again, then reset the login window (and splash screen) to something that's not broken. [07:11] lizzzy_, grub2 is different. [07:12] oh ok [07:12] lizzzy_, and don't go manually editing grub.cfg, theres stuff in /etc/default/grub ( iirc) [07:12] mdgeorge1: I couldn't play OA after the upgrade because of sound and lag [07:12] lizzzy_, you need to read up and learn up grub2 [07:12] What does sudo sshd-generate do? [07:12] C-S-B: Will do that now. :) [07:12] KitsuneDr: in fact, I just noticed that in general, holding down a key freezes the mouse [07:12] anybody get problems with ubuntu crash in resume in 9.10 [07:12] that's definitely the problem [07:14] not good [07:14] mdgeoege1: that doesn't matter for me any more anyway because after enabling some special compiz effects I login and my desktop freezes right away and I don't know why so I did a new install of mint this time (wubi) [07:14] Can someone please point me to a good reference on removing KDE and restoring gnome/nautilus? [07:14] KitsuneDr: :( [07:15] i would also like help in this too [07:15] does anyone use eclipse visual editor? [07:15] mdgeorge1: everyone says Linux is stable but not for me because I like to expirement and this is like the tenth reinstall XD [07:16] KitsuneDr, just 10? [07:16] Lavagolemking1: I must be tired, I read your nick as "lovemaking1" === __Techie_ is now known as _Techie_ [07:16] no wait it was more I lost count a while ago [07:17] mdgeorgw1: lol [07:17] How do i use locate to find files > 5MB? [07:17] I got a question [07:17] not about UBunutu [07:17] It's not lovemaking, but the 1 is because Pidgin (again) didn't tell me I need to ghost myself. [07:17] courpse: I think there is an option under search there's a (plus) button I think [07:18] anyone use eclipse VE? [07:18] Will the creation of the ip end someday ? [07:18] KitsuneDr, im in terminal. === Lavagolemking1 is now known as Lavagolemking [07:18] i just want to know how to open up the pane that you use to add things to whatever you're editing visually [07:18] courpse: sorry I can't help I'm just a begginer my self ^^ [07:18] in eclipse visual editor [07:19] kk. [07:19] courpse: got any bash chm files? if you read those they will help [07:19] k, so, here's the thing. I'm trying to change the appearance of grub. Did it earlier by tweaking the menu.lst appearance settings, not sure what do I do now :( [07:19] ziroday: I'd like nothing related to KDE left behind, just a default Gnome installation. [07:19] Will the creation of the ip end someday ? [07:19] millertimek1a2m3, why not use netbeans? [07:19] courpse: there's more than one search function in bash. like... grep. find locate. they all do similar things [07:19] !puregnome | Lavagolemking [07:19] Lavagolemking: 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 [07:19] Gnome is the best kde is too messy [07:19] yeah, can do it find. [07:19] Was just wondering if locate didi t. [07:19] merma: because I was using eclipse at work, and I'm a freshman in college. I'm still learning java [07:19] Hadi: what's "the ip"? [07:19] KitsuneDr: No, KDE is awesome. [07:20] mdgeorge1 IP address [07:20] millertimek1a2m3, you might want to ask in #eclipse [07:20] merma: how do i use the pane thing that lets me drag and drop features onto the window i'm editing [07:20] millertimek1a2m3, creating GUI's in netbeans is 100X easier, editing code on eclipse is nicer thoug [07:20] what do you mean about the creation of the ip? [07:20] courpse, find / -size 5M [07:20] lizzy: says you :D [07:20] Hadi, ipv4 will run out someday [07:20] millertimek1a2m3, i don't know [07:20] KitsuneDr: Says all. [07:21] joeb3__, i said i can do it in find, was wondering if locate did it,. [07:21] merma: really? so they have advantages? like one is more oriented for one thing than the other? [07:21] lizzy: except for me lol [07:21] courpse: the manual does not mention any way to do this (any options) [07:21] yeah, :/ [07:21] No opinions on window managers, so no hard feelings to all you KDE people. :) [07:21] I just have a defiant brother who social engineered sudo from his mother, tried to install KDE (and some other garbage to make it look like a Mac) and now nothing will load. [07:21] millertimek1a2m3, oh yeah, each has their strength [07:21] I'm just trying to reverse the changes. [07:22] merma: well i have netbeans on my ubuntu as well... [07:22] Anyway, how do I modify the grub appearance? Anyone who's already done it? [07:22] millertimek1a2m3, you can try making a GUI with it, it's very nice [07:22] i could use it. but if I was to start using it, how would I be able to use 2 different IDE's to make one program [07:22] ? [07:22] lavagolemking1: lol social engineering fail [07:22] merma: prev mess [07:23] millertimek1a2m3, you could do everything in netbeans, or copy code created in eclipse into netbeans [07:23] can any body help me with the installation of win xp iside linux and want the dual boot [07:23] ah [07:23] millertimek1a2m3, you could just learn how to use the VE in eclipse too, it's probably worth it [07:23] KitsuneDr: No, he succeeded in social engineering, then put himself in like every single root-related group and made a second user. [07:23] is there a way [07:23] ? === andree is now known as andree_cool [07:23] ravenger, why inside linux? [07:23] merma: is it worth it to keep them segregated? are their specialty abilities that great of a difference? [07:23] millertimek1a2m3, coding in eclipse is a pleasure [07:24] virtualize? [07:24] merma: I was planning on learning VE [07:24] !dualboot | ravenger [07:24] ravenger: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot [07:24] merma: ok well back to the orig Question-how do I draw up the pane that lets me drag and drop features onto the window i'm editing [07:24] KitsuneDr: It's the "make it look like a Mac" part that failed, which spread throughout the system. [07:24] eclipse is better in ubuntu. [07:24] millertimek1a2m3, people tend to pick one, they don't separate them, still each is better at specific tasks, more advanced things [07:25] lavalgolemking1: I know but what i meant was that he used social engineering and then created a fail with it [07:25] merma: prev question please! === chaky_ is now known as chaky [07:25] millertimek1a2m3, i don't know [07:25] lavagolemking: what was wrong with gnome-look.org dl a mac theme and then awn? [07:26] millertimek1a2m3, i've never used VE [07:26] does anyone know how to draw up the pane (in eclipse using VE) that lets me drag and drop features onto the window i'm editing [07:26] KitsuneDr: Yep. Also an epic fail on my mom's part. We all know that's how he operates, but she still fell for it and now the system is hosed without me there to help for the next few weeks. [07:26] Dayofswords: becauz i had already installed ubuntu and now i had requirement of xp and i tried for virtualization but my system is very slow even with 1gb ram . so ........ i got go for the dual boot [07:26] millertimek1a2m3, you could try Jigloo, I think it's the most popular gui editor for Eclipse [07:26] how to copy files as "root" to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins [07:26] really? so there's more than one GUI editor? [07:26] titanicheart, using sudo? [07:26] for a single IDE? [07:26] millertimek1a2m3, yes [07:27] millertimek1a2m3, at least for eclipse [07:27] merma: guide me [07:27] does anyone know how to draw up the pane (in eclipse using VE) that lets me drag and drop features onto the window i'm editing [07:27] Why is add-apt-repository giving command not found? Please [07:27] thanks merma [07:27] shankhs: It's only available on Ubuntu 9.10 and later, IIRC. [07:27] titanicheart, sudo cp file /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/file [07:27] wgrant: thanx [07:27] KitsuneDr: I've never dabbled in what he's trying to do. However, he wants EVERYTHING to look like a Mac (splash screen, login window, and he'd screw with the BIOS if he knew how). [07:28] Question: I'm using Ubuntu 9.10, trying to install Rosetta Stone 3.3.5 using WineHQ 1.0.1. I get a "Rosetta Stone version 3 Setup Wizard ended prematurely" error and it doesn't install, I left the default install location of "C:\Program Files\Rosetta Stone\Rosetta Stone Version 3\" should I change that and maybe that's the problem? [07:29] (I tried #winehq but they're all asleep, their appdb for wine says "everything" works with 3.3.5) [07:29] lavagolemking: hope you fix it allthough shouldn't it be possible to completly remove kde and then gnome -- replace? [07:29] kitsunedr, what about running kde apps? [07:30] merma: File not found [07:30] KitsuneDr: I found a solution to the mouse problem if you're interested [07:30] KitsuneDr: His punishment is that every single thing he tried to install will be sacked and never replaced (he might have got it if by honesty). [07:30] kitsunedr: as in like kde apps under gnome [07:30] titanicheart, what did you type? [07:30] so let's say I followed some very bad advice [07:30] merma: 'No Such File or Directory' is displayed [07:30] cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins [07:30] and rm'd /var/lib/dpkg/lock under feisty [07:30] is there anything I can do to fix this [07:31] lavagolemking: if he wants mac that bad just build a hackintosh [07:31] Before I switched to Ubuntu, I was on Windows XP, and had windows media player, which has the ability for file sharing, and was able to connect my video library to my xbox, and watch any movie on my computer on my xbox. Now I don't have WMP and can't get it because this isn't windows. So, in need of help. [07:31] titanicheart, you need to be where you downloaded libglashplayer.so [07:31] Banjooie, it sould automatically be created the next time something uses apt. [07:31] probably in downloads [07:31] ok [07:31] titanicheart, so you have to cd Downloads [07:31] KitsuneDr: Yes, that's exactly what I'm trying to do. Right now either gnome is broken/missing, and I want Gnome loading again. [07:31] well [07:31] that's the thing [07:31] ever /since/ I did that [07:31] Lavagolemking: http://maketecheasier.com/turn-your-ubuntu-hardy-to-mac-osx-leopard/2008/07/23 can be helpful! [07:31] every time I try to apt-get anything [07:31] Banjooie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:32] titanicheart, or maybe in Desktop, wherever you downloaded it [07:32] merma: what is the command for listing directories?? [07:32] titanicheart, ls [07:32] titanicheart: ls [07:32] hi everyone...how do I add to PATH variable? need to add libjasper...I'm using kubuntu 9.10 [07:32] okay: ever since I did that, /var/lib/dpkg/lock always says it's open (11 resource temporarily unavailable) [07:32] Before I switched to Ubuntu, I was on Windows XP, and had windows media player, which has the ability for file sharing, and was able to connect my video library to my xbox, and watch any movie on my computer on my xbox. Now I don't have WMP and can't get it because this isn't windows. So, in need of help. [07:32] nothing happens with ls [07:32] trench-: export PATH=$PATH:/new/path [07:32] KitsuneDr: Thing is, it's not his computer, but my mom's laptop that she is letting him use. She doesn't like the Mac interface (and neither do I). [07:32] titanicheart, well because the folder is empty [07:32] please some one help , make save configs on a live usb pen ubuntu 8.04 and see all there after showtdown [07:32] merma: when i type ls the cursor goes to next line of terminal [07:33] titanicheart, check were you downloaded the file [07:33] i am right now at root@prashant-laptop [07:33] titanicheart: nothing is in the dir [07:33] with the graphical interface [07:33] thanks lstarnes [07:33] titanicheart, [07:33] Someone please help me. Before I switched to Ubuntu, I was on Windows XP, and had windows media player, which has the ability for file sharing, and was able to connect my video library to my xbox, and watch any movie on my computer on my xbox. Now I don't have WMP and can't get it because this isn't windows. So, in need of help. [07:33] Banjooie, do you have something running like update manager, synaptic, or apt-get?

[07:33] titanicheart, you must use your account [07:33] <_Dasda> shu, use any program with cifs sharing [07:34] shu you want either samba for file sharing, or upnp (i think) [07:34] <_Dasda> i dont know which is god for ubuntu though since i have never used it [07:34] i am using my account only [07:34] _Dasda, I don't know what that is [07:34] what's the package of the ubuntu slideshow? :) [07:34] Durt: shouldn't be, lemme reboot it again and see if that helps [07:34] gonzoism, whats samba?

[07:35] how shud i go to folder where i downloaded ..im in terminal [07:36] i'm having a problem with compiz i think. sometimes when i use alt-tab the screen gets all garbly. I've tried adjusting refresh rates. I've been searching google for a while and haven't had luck. I've been trying to fix this for 3 days. I have a screenshot of what is happening. [07:36] Shu: I think it might be installed by default, but check the package manager [07:36] Durt: my installation has a variety of issues I am trying to tackle one at a time. One of these includes the seeming inability to close all the stuff trying to apt-get [07:36] titanicheart: name the folder [07:36] titanicheart: where it is [07:36] adonai2009: programms don't get lost by shutdown, also isn't keyboard, are you running live cd ??

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. [07:45] shwack: webchat [07:45] shwack: that's a matter of personal opinion [07:45] shwack xchat is simple, bitchx is nice, epic is nice with the right script. [07:45] There should be an option in Tomboy to not sync some memos I think! [07:45] shwack: most linux users use xchat or irssi [07:45] I use irssi [07:45] gonzoism: irssi has largely replaced epic and bitchx [07:45] shwack: I like Konversation the most [07:45] sorry Floodbot2 [07:45] lstarnes good to know, thanks.

Anyone know how to troubleshoot? [07:46] uploaded memos can not be read by others on ubuntu one, right? [07:46] allan8904: find /directory -name *.rar [07:46] allan8904: find . -name "*.rar" [07:46] thanks [07:46] simpler, find /your/dir -maxdepth 1 -name "*.rar" [07:46] Thanks everyone - guess I'll try them out and decide [07:46] that gets JUST that directory. [07:46] does anyone have any suggestions for this display problem ? [07:46] But it's really easier in that case to do "ls *.rar" [07:46] allan8904: "*.rar" in quotes in case there are .rar files in current directory, the shell would expand out *.rar otherwise [07:46] ubuntu 9.04 on a IBMp3 with 128 mb sd ram? thats ok right? [07:47] thanks everyone it worked :D [07:47] an0nmat1r: err, no. [07:47] gonzoism, do you have the same display problem?

I just got an old laptop that I put Ubuntu on. (512MB RAM). I won't be accessing it physically and only remotely, so I would like to turn the monitor off. However, I am able to do this only after loading X/Gnome. Is there anyway to turn the laptop monitor off when just logged into the terminal, and without starting X / Gnome? [07:48] i got another 8 g pen [07:48] titanicheart: now you're just trolling. [07:48] titanicheart: no [07:48] its with backtrack [07:49] which os should i install...Windows 98 Works Fine [07:49] puppy [07:49] or DSL (DamnSmallLinux) [07:49] titanicheart: puppy should run ok on that [07:49] Windows 3.1! Stick with the pure stuff [07:49] or slitaz ;) [07:49] anybody see the mac commercial where they go back I'm time I loped [07:49] please combine all the options in one message [07:49] titanicheart, I'd stay with just a command line on a p1. [07:49] Anyone any ideas? Switching off monitor without logging into GNome? [07:49] no use unix dude [07:49] adonai2009: bt needs less space, so just change it around, you also have another running os, nor ? [07:50] i just want to use an OS which provides me better functionality than Windows 98 [07:50] on 64Mb? [07:50] win98 is pinnacle of computing achievement [07:50] titanicheart, Windows 98 SE :) [07:50] that would be windows mohave XD [07:50] I'd be bludging for another newer computer. [07:51] titanicheart, a pencil and paper has more functionality than 98. [07:51] say what you will, 98 was stable. [07:51] Hexbomber: uh, not on MY machines, it wasn.t [07:51] The ME disaster anyone? [07:51] sure, a rock is stable too [07:51] neither of them are much use though [07:51] durt: actually, to be fair, I have games that still work under 98 when they don't under XP.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [08:14] SingAlong: Then the only thing I can think of is you have not configured the Windows server correctly, as in you have not said where the Linux laptop is relative to the Windows screen. Have you said it is connected both ways?

[08:15] SingAlong: I don't think that's how it works >< [08:15] SingAlong: Give me a sec, let me look up the server settings on Windows [08:16] harisund: oh. you mean i need to set it the other way? [08:16] What is better about the Kubuntu package? [08:16] SingAlong: No I think it's done differently. One second [08:16] SingAlong: sounds like synegery configuration..? [08:16] thanks sir [08:16] Dr_Willis: yes sir :) [08:16] SingAlong: had to twiddlw with the the other day. that gui config tool they have on ubuntu is a little.. quirky [08:17] hi all [08:17] Ok guys, I am trying to hack a custom EDID file but when I run phoenix edid in WINE, I receive an invalid EDID error. Further research states reveals no info on such error. [08:17] Dr_Willis: is that a synergy alternative? [08:17] I got it set on my fileserver, thats hooked to the tv. :) so i got a file-server-media-player. [08:17] SingAlong: its a gui to config synergy - it works. after i played with it a bit. [08:17] Dr_Willis: SingAlong This is one of those situations where configuring through the command line and not using the GUI is much better :) I hate setting up a Synergy server on Windows especially, which is the trouble SingAlong is having [08:18] shwack: that could become a poll, it's a different surface amongst others of the same ubu-core [08:18] Hmm. I got it going on windows also. [08:18] ok SingAlong let's do this. So you click on Configure, and you have 2 screens, correct? [08:18] I did think i had to set up static ip's and use those. (told the router to give the same ips to the machines) [08:18] harisund: yes. one is called desktop and another laptop. [08:19] SingAlong: Quick question, what is the relative orientation? The desktop is to right of laptop? [08:19] I want to install VNC on Ubuntu 9.10 [08:19] RaaG: VNC client or viewer? I think both are already present [08:19] Viewer [08:19] harisund: ya. i have the laptop to my left. and the desktop to my right [08:19] theres also the tightvnc and other variants.

[08:19] pls hel me [08:19] pls help me [08:20] !help | RaaG [08:20] RaaG: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [08:20] DasEi, I'm here [08:20] SingAlong: heres my .synergy.conf if you need an example.. Cow is the server on the left.. server is the client on the right. :) (yes i got a pc with hostname of 'server' ) [08:20] SingAlong: Ok so your links should be (1) --> 0-100% of the left of Desktop goes to 0-100% of the Laptop (2) --> 0-100% of the right of Desktop goes to 0-100% of Desktop [08:20] pastebinit .synergy.conf [08:20] http://pastebin.com/f4ad4df86 [08:20] ok [08:20] has anyone updgraded eeepc to karmic succesfully? [08:20] what is the ubuntu netbook remix equivalent of places > connect to server? [08:20] Can I make my own room or does freenode.net not allow it? [08:20] hi chewybits, open a terminal .. [08:21] err (2) --> 0-100% of the right of Laptop goes to Desktop [08:21] shwack: can, furhter info in #defocus [08:21] I upgraded to Karmic on a P4 (Celeron) 2.8GHz, works okay so far, except for the temperature sensors === jesse_ is now known as Guest38021 [08:21] I want to install VNC Viewer on Ubuntu 9.10 [08:21] harisund: done.

[08:21] How to solve the issue of Karmic not shutting down ? [08:21] i think i'll have a go.. [08:21] Yeah test it out? [08:21] RaaG: tightvnc, ultravnc, or plain vnc? [08:21] harisund: no i had it the other way earlier. [08:21] DasEi, done [08:21] SingAlong: Stop the server, start is again, kill the client on Linux and connect on Linux [08:21] Plain VNC [08:21] RaaG: sudo apt-get install vnc-viewer [08:22] ok [08:22] Actually, I suspect there's a vnc viewer... there we are. [08:22] chewybits: sudo apt-get install gparted [08:22] RaaG: there is no plain vnc. there is a vnc viewer allready built in to gnome.. but i forget its command line name. theres no icon for it in the menus I think [08:22] chewybits: Is there more then one harddrive in that comp ? [08:22] vnc4iphone is epic [08:22] harisund: k. doing it now [08:22] RaaG: I think you can start it with vncviewer on the command line [08:22] harisund: no luck [08:22] om26er1> Gives error [08:23] DasEi, no... I have to apt-get update first... one sec [08:23] i update system from linux mint 7 to ubuntu karmic with replace sources.list and system work fine [08:23] chewybits: on a live ? could take a while.. [08:23] RaaG: vnc4-common [08:23] no no [08:24] DasEi, was pretty quick actually, even on this p3... newest version installer [08:24] Dr_Willis: do you have the same OS setup as me? client linux. server windows etc? [08:24] Reading package lists... Done [08:24] Building dependency tree [08:24] Reading state information... Done [08:24] Package vnc-viewer is a virtual package provided by: [08:24] vnc-java 3.3.3r2-8 [08:24] RaaG: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [08:24] tightvnc-java 1.2.7-8 [08:24] the error says it has no installation candidate [08:24] hello i have a question.. is is true DSL connections are not supported by network manager? i see on some forums? [08:24] chewybits: good luck then, fine, only one hard drive ? [08:24] SingAlong: yes. i got it set where i boot this machine to windows or linux and it works. the client is linux in both cases [08:24] RaaG: xvnc4viewer [08:25] the vinagre - command in gnome can connect to vnc servers [08:25] miha: no [08:25] DasEi, I meant newest version installed for gparted [08:25] Dr_Willis: so how do i use that config file of yours? where's the config file in windows? [08:25] How to solve the issue of Karmic not shutting down ? [08:25] DasEi I went to defocus but couldn't talk - I read the link provided at top of room but just a bunch of people ranting about the new voice policy [08:25] SingAlong: not sure where its at in windows. thats the one from my linux box. [08:25] DasEi, and only one harddrive [08:25] Dr_Willis: oh [08:25] Dr_Willis: i dont have any config file on my ubuntu client. [08:25] chewybits: no more data needed from that ? [08:25] Dr_Willis: do i need to have one? [08:25] pls see the error when i'm installing the vnc [08:26] shwack, #freenode not #defocus [08:26] DasEi, I don't quite follow [08:26] shwack: takes few minutes to get voice there, leave tab open [08:26] http://paste.ubuntu.com/306495/ [08:26] SingAlong: in the windows tool i hit that + on the config program to add a 'entry' did 100% right -> 100% left on one entry. then hit + again and did 100% left to 100% right on the 2nd entry. that gui to config it - was a little confuseing on windows [08:26] will gyachi for ubuntu 9.04 work on ubuntu 9.10? [08:26] SingAlong: on the client i think you just give the proper opeions to start it. [08:26] Dr_Willis: the faq said i only need to use synergy --name laptop 192.168.1.3 to connect to the windows comp wth IP 192.168.1.3 [08:26] chewybits: no more data needed from that harddrive (next steps will destroy any data on that hd) [08:26] SingAlong: You are executing synergyc right? [08:26] psinetic: possibly. [08:26] harisund: ya [08:26] harisund: i missed the c in the chat above :) [08:27] RaaG: installing xvnc4viewer also install vncviewer i think [08:27] DasEi, yea, it's cool, I backed up an hour ago [08:27] * Viking667 just uses x2x instead of synergy [08:27] chewybits: sudo gparted [08:27] SingAlong: on my linux client connecting to the windows server i just use the command line -> synergyc 192.168.1.13 [08:27] Dr_Willis: wait a sec.. come again please... something begins to make sense now. [08:27] SingAlong: Figured, but just making sure. When you are connecting with the laptop, the laptop's name is the same as the name of the "screen" on Windows, right? And the name of the Windows screen is the same as the hostname of the Windows machine? [08:27] SingAlong: you use syngeryc to start the client. :) [08:27] note the 'c' at the end [08:28] I did have mythfrontend installed on a 9.04 desktop just playing to see if it could talk to another real backend but never used, however I have just done an upgrade to karmic and the machine has rebooted looking like a frontend with xfce etc... how can I remove xfce etc and have a standard karmic ubuntu desktop now ? [08:28] harisund: ya the screen names are laptop and desktop :) [08:28] ok i think its working [08:28] Dr_Willis: ya that was a typo above. [08:28] DasEi, okay, do you want me to delete the partitions? [08:28] SingAlong: i couldent get things to work via hostname. so i used ip's [08:28] SingAlong: in the windows tool i hit that + on the config program to add a 'entry' did 100% right -> 100% left on one entry. then hit + again and did 100% left to 100% right on the 2nd entry. that gui to config it - was a little confuseing on windows [08:28] Dr_Willis: you said ^^ [08:28] Thanks its working [08:28] chewybits: faster, under device > make partitontable [08:28] SingAlong: yes. that gui took me a good 15 min to figure out [08:28] Dr_Willis: i have only one link setup... [08:28] Dr_Willis: i wish irc had screenshare [08:28] SingAlong: EXACTLY what i had a problem with.. :) [08:29] SingAlong: I told you to have 2 links :P [08:29] SingAlong: I gave you a (1) and a (2) in my chat earlier and you said you had it the other way around lol [08:29] SingAlong: with 1 link i could move To the tv but not out of it. [08:29] DasEi, what kind of partion table [08:29] harisund: sorry. i'll try to follow now. [08:29] chewybits: ms-dos [08:29] Dr_Willis: the + to add links is shaded grey for me [08:30] chewybits: then click apply-button [08:30] DasEi, okay, it's completed [08:30] You make one entry.. and finish it.. then it should appear ungreyed I recall [08:30] SingAlong: You should complete all the drop down boxes [08:30] chewybits: close gparted [08:30] harisund: completed. starting to try now, [08:31] harisund: worked@@@@ [08:31] Dr_Willis: worked!!! [08:31] harisund: Dr_Willis thanks! I was able to switch to and fro :D [08:31] DasEi, okay [08:31] chewybits: if you execute next cmd, it will reboot, choose instal ubuntu from the cd-startup-menu then, it will lead you to partitoning [08:31] l* [08:31] Dr_Willis: harisund: thanks a lot! [08:31] . [08:31] chewybits: sudo reboot [08:31] :) [08:32] Ok anyone knows how to switch of the LCD on Linux remotely, when not running X / Gnome ?? [08:33] harisund: karmic ? [08:33] goodnight all [08:33] how do I change the color of my own text in Xchat? [08:33] harisund: dpms command i think can do it.. or the xrandr command [08:33] anyone know how to fix this: http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/Hexbomber/screenshot_003.png [08:33] i think compiz is causing it [08:33] can someone tell me how to switch from xfce to proper gnome based desktop ? [08:33] DasEi: Doesn't matter which one .. any Linux. Dr_Willis xset dpms force off switches it off, but I have not started X [08:34] hipitihop: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [08:34] shwack, settings preferences colours [08:34] Dr_Willis: I am not running X since I don't have enough memory for it. I am using the laptop for strictly command line apps, IRSSI, torrent, file sharing etc. And I want the LCD turned off :( [08:34] bazhang: I'm there but there is nothing to change my own color. only everything else [08:34] gonzoism nice picture! yeah might be.. i'd try disabling all the sexy visual effects :) [08:35] dd [08:35] I'm prettry new to Ubuntu. I'm trying to install Icom 20040912-1 by Synaptic but when the installation is complete it does not appear in the Applications menu. I saw that it might be Debian as supported by "Debian Hamradio Maintainers". Any suggestion on whot to install it? [08:35] harisund: well, hal can do it, device-kit I think, too and next are power-saving related thincs (acpi) , so need more clearance [08:35] how can I set mirrored displays with the smallest one scrolling to match the biggest's resoultion in 9.10? [08:35] DasEi: hmmm interesting [08:36] DasEi: So what is used in 9.10? HAL or device-kit or ..? [08:36] bove: System/Preferences/display ... hopefully it asks for you graphic card own config (ati or nvidia) [08:36] harisund: device-kit, hal still available, acpi-event I think way to go (is it a laptop ?) [08:37] guys is there an ubuntu robotics studio similar to Microsofts robotic studio? [08:37] DasEi: yes, old laptop :( [08:37] miha: It only gives me 800x600 in mirrored :\ [08:37] harisund: have you checked bios for powersaving config ? [08:38] bove: is primary display smaller? [08:38] bove: both displays work beyond 800x600? [08:38] Tred [08:38] anyone having an issue with emerald in karmic [08:39] It didn't work [08:39] DasEi: nothing particular in the bios about power config [08:39] miha: yes. Smallest is 1024x600, biggest is currently running at 1360x768. That's what I want for them both [08:40] harisund: so can configure it under system > preferences > energy, switch of monitor, if acpi is supported [08:41] DasEi: I don't have X running man. There is no System->preferences->Energy. I already know how to turn it off if I have X running, I am running just the command line >< [08:41] just made the switch to karmic [08:42] harisund: what does the man page for setterm tell you about blanking? [08:42] two things i need help with from competent ubuntu users [08:42] What's the right way to disable bluetooth on karmic? I added the /etc/rc*.d/K**bluetooth links but bluetooth still starts on resume from suspend. [08:42] Viking667: Is there anything in setterm? Can't find anything [08:42] 1. My computer keeps makeing this pop sound and 2. webcam wont work on cheese [08:42] bove: i mean, if each display works well seperately, dual should just work...i ...guess [08:43] harisund: you want your monitor to power-off from blanking after a set time, right? [08:43] I came in abuot halfway through on this. [08:43] Viking667: yeah I think those are the right terms [08:43] silent what do you mean by webcam not working? === philippe is now known as Guest63588 [08:44] then setterm is possibly the only program I know of that addresses that. [08:44] doesnt appear as 'device' or what? [08:44] I suspect, anyhow. [08:44] what does invalid cross device link mean ? [08:44] miha, yeah [08:44] Viking667: cool man, thanks a ton. I will check it out. [08:44] harisund: so why not use the dpms, if that works on that screen [08:44] miha, how do i turn off the sexy effects ? also, i'm using emerald. [08:44] DasEi: because dpms can only be used if X is running and I am not running X [08:44] miha, "no camera found" [08:44] 84-203-68-26 [08:44] gonzoism: compiz [08:44] harisund: sure ?

[08:47] om26er1, do you think it is compiz causing it, or more likely to be one particular effect of compiz ? [08:47] anyone having issues with emerald [08:47] wgrant, thanks [08:47] First things first, i switched to 9.10 and my computers makeing this aweful pop sound... how can i fix it?

[08:47] gonzoism: i don't go in compiz [08:47] can somebody give me an address from where can i download ubuntu 9,10 for boot with usb [08:48] Viking667: setterm doesn't do anything. setterm -powersave powerdown has no visible change. [08:48] harisund: http://paste.ubuntu.com/306508/ (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) , no xserver at all ? [08:48] gonzoism: first disable it and see if it works. then enable compiz with fewer effects. [08:48] DasEi: I don't have a xserver, nope. [08:49] gonzoism: well for me this extra effects only work from 9.10 karmic [08:49] I have a problem which to me is very serious. In Karmic when ever I suspend and wake it up again there will be a Kernel Crash Report. It says that the kernel has incounterd some serious problem.

[10:01] wgrant: What is the deal with that? I see no upgrades. [10:01] aaron11: try reloading synaptic and upgrade ubuntu one client [10:01] dut: this is what just happened in the command prompt: root@ubuntu:/home/jarame# ^C root@ubuntu:/home/jarame# [10:02] wgrant: (On Jaunty) [10:02] In windows there is visual c++ 6.0 version.

[10:02] Pricey: click reload in synaptic [10:02] wgrant: Nope it says I have a newer version so the server is not compatible with it [10:02] wgrant: his error says his version is later than the server [10:02] Pricey: A dataloss issue was discovered, so the server now rejects old clients. [10:02] aaron11, om26er: Yes, but that's a lie. [10:02] Jarame, ok, so it stopped, try the IP address [10:02] wgrant: Has hte new client not been added to the Jaunty ppa?

[10:04] Hi, after upgrade to karmic I get the warning message: "One or more of the mounts in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted" and then it lists all my partitions - after that, it continues booting just fine and everything works allright. anything I can/should do about that? [10:04] Jarame: open firefox from termianl with sudo and see if it opens website [10:04] sudo firefox [10:04] if you are using twinview (without xinerama) is there a way to remove the gnome bars and background on the second display?

[10:05] Jarame, no, just 'ping 222.222.22.22' or whatever that number was [10:05] aaron11: did you really updated the client? [10:05] yes [10:06] Hey guys [10:06] durt: yeah its doing something. 64 bytes of everything its running [10:06] xzcvczx: Not that ive noticed.. I always use twinview for many reasons. I cant think of any reason to NOT use twinview. [10:06] aaron11: then quit it in status bar and reload it? [10:06] om26er, I rab sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [10:06] om26er: I will try that in a minute. [10:06] ran* [10:06] Jarame, ok, then for sure it's a dns issue. [10:06] Flannel: how to start the g++ and start writing sourcecode? [10:06] aaron11: apt-cache policy python-ubuntuone-client [10:06] xzcvczx: i have my bars on one monitor here.. if thats what you are asking..

[10:07] It was installed using the guided installer on the 9.04 disk. [10:07] tazz: Yes. [10:07] fran7ic: anjuta or Eclipse (with CDT). [10:07] Dr_Willis: well the default seems to be bars on both displays for me, one of my displays is on my wall on the other side of the room and only used for playing dvd's etc... so its rather pointless it having bars [10:07] any news about ext4 bug? [10:07] wgrant: say that again [10:07] tazz: python 2.6 RC [10:07] Flannel: ok, thanks again [10:07] Dr_Willis: i have windows xp aswell [10:07] tazz: grub2 isn't out of beta yet [10:07] xzcvczx: after enabling the twinview/featuyres totally restart the x server. [10:07] aaron11: Run 'apt-cache policy python-ubuntuone-client', and tell me which version it says you have installed. [10:07] o.O i find that a bit odd but guy must know what they are doing :) [10:07] durt: im going to try what om26er said real quick [10:07] Dr_Willis: i did [10:08] durt: i will be back, lol [10:08] xzcvczx: the currently running apps will get confused other wise.

[10:08] gsevil: I don't know. Why can't you? What does it do? [10:08] Dr_Willis: well i have it set to not enable drag between, like to run stuff on second screen i have to use DISPLAY=":0.1", yup did all that... the second display is working at the moment and its not just a clone [10:08] xzcvczx: hers my xorg.conf -> pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf [10:08] http://pastebin.com/f75b8c0af [10:09] gsevil, i just locked and unlocked my screen.

I have a "primary dns" and a "secondary dns" number [10:14] A4Tech: Probably screenshots.debian.net [10:15] Re. KARMIC... First off, let me say that I'm a brand new Linux user (but a fan for years... supported DVD-Jon at a rally at IBM's hq in NYC.) .... Jaunty was working fine, but yesterday I upgraded to Koala. Since then, my PC has frozen 3 times, my only recourse was pushing the OFF button. Please someone, reassure me that I can stay with Koala,.. and that this "kink" will work itself out SOON ? ... or, should I better return to Jaunty [10:15] wgrant: YES! Thank You very much [10:15] Jarame, then they might have changed, or are down for the moment, contact your ISP. [10:15] aaron11: Excellent. [10:15] wgrant: :-/ [10:15] how can i from a LiveCD install a new grub file ? [10:15] Granli-6050: or try a clean install of Karmic and not a upgrade [10:15] wgrant: I can only connect for a while [10:16] aaron11: What does it do then? [10:16] durt: windows xp home can use the web just fine. there's got to be something wrong with 9.10, because 9.04 worked perfectly online [10:16] durt: and windows is on the same laptop === root is now known as Guest97465 [10:17] durt: could a clean install do the trick you think? [10:17] the new grub structure is totally different from the old one. you can see the changes at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [10:17] Granli-6050: The first week is always rough, a whole lot more hardware/software configurations get thrown into the mix (if only we had millions of people testing the beta). [10:17] wgrant: On my tray it shows a white cloud when connected and after 7-12 second it shows a blank colud with an "!" mark. [10:17] wgrant thx :) [10:17] Dr_Willis: From a diskette? CD? DVD? [10:17] aaron11: Are you somehow firewalled? [10:17] Jarame, it could, but thats like trying to kill a fly with a bazooka [10:17] Granli-6050: i always install from usb flash drives now. i rarely burn a cd.. a clean install from whatever medium you want.. [10:17] wgrant: I didnt set it up [10:18] durt: its either clean install or do a downgrade [10:18] wgrant: It says it is connecting but then fails [10:18] kblin , is it mounted? [10:18] durt: because firefox works perfect on the windows half of my computer [10:18] Ubuntu One is connecting here.. for the first time in a week. :) [10:18] Jarame, or figure out why dns isn't working? [10:18] woble: lvm? no. my / partition is on LVM, the system isn't even booting [10:19] durt: i just wanted to know if there was a fix for this because i dont want to do one of those two if windows works fine wirelessly, but not ubuntu. [10:19] Dr_Willis: Mine is trying to connect but it fails [10:20] good morning all, i have an issue with my gfx card, i didn't install the restricteds themn, and now the restricyed drivers manager isn't showing my card )which is a GTX 275 "superclocked") [10:20] durt: thanks for helping me as much as you can, man. I'm gonna get some rest and work on it in the morning again. [10:20] aaron11: has it told. you need to reboot your system after doing some prblem fixing? [10:20] Dr_Willis: lol u ended up having to install ubuntu on my computer which has a stuffed cd rom drive, and no usb boot.... [10:21] i not u [10:21] wgrant: It trys to connect but fails. And I dont think I setup a firewall [10:21] may I ask why I can't join #freenode? [10:21] Flannel: I'll stick it out for a week or two, hoping this kink will go away. I'm an optimist by nature. [10:21] om26er: Its working but it cant connect to the server. Its not an error [10:21] Any idea how to get MS wireless keyboard multimedia keys working in Karmic with Exaile? They worked before the upgrade. They are recognised as the correct keys in the kbd shortcut dialogue, but they don't affect Exaile. (Play/Pause, Next, PRevious - the rest of them work) [10:21] aaron11: but rebooting is not a problem you can try it without any harm [10:22] is there a way to select users shown in the list on gdm login screen? [10:22] good morning all, i have an issue with my gfx card, i didn't install the restricteds themn, and now the restricyed drivers manager isn't showing my card )which is a GTX 275) [10:22] clonebot attack in progress on #freenode I think [10:22] how can i share my home partition on ubuntu with samba? [10:22] Granli-6050: If you can, file a bug report. That's a good way to be sure the devs are aware of it [10:22] i always receive the error: ubuntu net usershare 255 cannot convert name Everyone to a SID invalid parameter [10:22] om26er: If you're correct I will surely be grateful! :) [10:22] Dr_Willis: My situation is that I'm living in a VERY remote place in the Norwegian Alps. (Population = 12.) The Internet is my source of upgading. [10:23] LeMoNiCe: what was your command line? [10:23] kblin i've tried it with nautilus [10:23] Granli-6050: so? if you are going to reformat/reinstall 9.04 due to upgrade issues.. You may want to try a 9.10 Clean install befor going back to 9.04 [10:23] LeMoNiCe: aha, seems like nautilus is calling net incorrectly [10:24] my mein problem ist that i can't establish a connection with laptop and desktop-pc (ubuntu/win7) [10:24] guys, i have a really stupid question.. if i already set up a machine so that you need to authenticate when you boot it up, how would i change it so you don't have to? (karmic) [10:24] s/mein/main [10:24] FiReSTaRT: you can set gdm up to auto login to a specific user if thats what you want. [10:24] LeMoNiCe: iirc you need to set a couple of registry keys in win7 and use a current version of Samba [10:24] FiReSTaRT: system -> admin -> login screen [10:24] Dr_Willis: if i paste anything in the ubuntu one folder it will be uploaded right? [10:25] om26er: supposed to be. :) but it can take some time [10:25] thanx [10:25] not exactly sure which keys, I don't run win7 [10:25] om26er: ive only drag/dropped a few wallpepers in ther eto test [10:25] hey guys quick question how do I replace those old looking icons n home pic etc and firefox bookmarks after applying a icons theme [10:25] After an upgrade to 9.10 my GUI is not appearing - just a rapidly flashing text login - I can SSH the box - is there a way to reconfigure X? [10:25] kblin ok on win7 it shouldn't be a problem to search some key's i've to update but i can't connect with umts-stick on linux since yesterday :( [10:25] i have windows xp and ubuntu on my netbook. I want to replace ubuntu with moblin. What about a boot manager? [10:25] thanks Dr_Willis.. i always keep password authentication on my laptop since i cross borders with it a lot, but i'm setting up my cousin's desktop machine and she's a bit lazy :) [10:26] Hi all. All was working fine with flash player (adobe) 10.0.2x before upgrading to Karmic. When I upgraded, it worked not perfectly anymore, so i went on the adobe website ad downloaded a package called something like "install-flash... .deb". I ran a dpkg via gui (gDebi!?) and it experienced some problem with "adobe-flashplugin". Now i have a corrupted adobe-flashplugin on my system, and synaptic refuses to run, apt-get remove adobe-flashplugin refuses t [10:26] Can you, at least, tell me how to remove that package from the system?

[11:19] fran7ic: kate, geany - both syntax hilighting text editors with built in consoles. geany also has some basic compilation stuff you can set up. vim as a code editor is really good too. [11:20] in jaunty, I could set an alsa device as my primary sound device (through pref > sound), but apparently it's using pulseaudio now? can I set it back to alsa somehow?

[11:40] poyntz: what is the model of your card? for example, 8800 gt, 7950, etc? [11:40] diam: that's strange.. did you upgrade or do a clean karmic install? [11:40] as per one my dude request i just install nvidia driver for my disply issue now im getting this message what to do [11:40] d9500: will I have to touch xorg.conf or anything before the log will change its value, or will it do it automatically?

[11:41] firestart: sorry, this is my second time ever on irc [11:41] poyntz: if you updated xorg.conf, then either rebooting or restarting the X server should produce a new series of errors in the xorg log. [11:41] d9500: i can just use startx then yeah? [11:41] diam: in that case you'll need to upgrade grub.. i can help you through it, but for starters, do you have any other hard drives in your comp? (no worries, just pointing it out for you so i can help you out more effectively) [11:41] poyntz: and you're sure the 185 drivers support that card. you may need 173 [11:41] Gnea, may be [11:42] d9500: no idea. how do I find out? [11:42] firestart: theres another partition i use for storage, but no other drives [11:42] Avash: so unplug all usb devices and try booting the livecd again [11:42] Gnea, there are no usb devices....... [11:42] only mouse and keyboard should be attached. everything else is useless. [11:42] why can't i use lm-sensors in karmic? [11:43] diam: that's good... in that case your solution is very simple.. open the terminal and tell me when you're ready (we're gonna hook you up with grub2 which DOES recognize the windows partitions) :P [11:43] hu [11:43] Avash: how old is this system? [11:43] hi [11:43] Gnea, 1 years [11:43] ^mNotIntelligent - what am i lookin for?

[11:44] http://paste.ubuntu.com/306607/ [11:44] Gnea, it was my mistake [11:44] i have ubuntu 9.10 on aspire 5530 there is a issue with mic ... after i installed apsa mixer gui i able to hear my slef but still sound is not going to any program ... like skype [11:44] any can helkp? [11:44] <^mNotIntelligent> moDumass, the mount issue, right now [11:44] has anyone tried out hibernate on karmic? [11:45] !anyone [11:45] A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [11:45] oh. [11:45] Xiella: if it works or not often depends on your exact system/hardware [11:45] Xiella: and some devices have issues with it. [11:45] !ask [11:45] 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. :-) [11:45] I see. [11:45] Xiella: works better than suspend... i installed it on 3 machines here.. hibernate works on all 3, suspend only on my laptop (but that's the most important one) [11:45] i have ubuntu 9.10 on aspire 5530 there is a issue with mic ... after i installed GNOME alsa mixer gui i able to hear my self but still sound is not going to any program ... like skype [11:45] once againhelp this applys to both #ubuntu .. after downloading and installing #ubuntu or 9.10 i arrive at the partition manager part of it and all i get is a totally blank white box just says prepare partions and nothing to just a blank white box cant partition anything only way out of it is hit quit tells me "no root file system found [11:45] Firestart: I see.. thanks also dr_willis [11:46] i am getting crazy here, i just burned the iso on the cd on linux [11:46] now it says blank disc again [11:46] firestart: it wants to adjust menu.lst to chainload grub 2, do i do that? [11:46] something is wrong here [11:46] can someone help ? [11:46] d9500: 185 definitely supports geforce go 7400 [11:46] ^mNotIntelligent - so im at root@modumass-desktop:~# but it doesnt respond to any keystrokes, but if i press alt ctrl f1 or f2 it goes to thiose sessions [11:46] i also installed the iso on a usb hdd [11:46] funkey: try mounting it manually perhaps. if you are sure its a proerly burnt disk. [11:46] Is there a way to get VLC into "fullscreen mode" like when only the screen is showing at the same time as a I have this chat above it? [11:47] funkey: ive had issues with automounting things in 9.10 [11:47] but if i boot from it there is a error message that there is no OS [11:47] i have ubuntu 9.10 on aspire 5530 there is a issue with mic ... after i installed GNOME alsa mixer gui i able to hear my self but still sound is not going to any program ... like skype [11:47] do it and make sure you select the partitions to install itself into like /dev/sda (one of the install steps should give you the option, make sure you check off the box) [11:47] Gnea - I haven't tried hibernate myself, have no problems with it at the moment heh sorry I honestly just wanted to know if anyone had any comments about it so far. [11:47] diam: do it and make sure you select the partitions to install itself into like /dev/sda (one of the install steps should give you the option, make sure you check off the box) [11:47] does the usb space be empty before installing the iso on it ? [11:47] Dr_Willis, [11:47] <^mNotIntelligent> moDumass, I'm yet to get the hang of the real issue...we're just doing sort of hit-n-trial ... [11:47] thepro: fullscreen would take the whole screen :) You could set your chat cient to always be on top and drag it over vlc [11:48] funkey: how are you trying to 'install the iso' ? [11:48] poyntz: ok, have you done a kernel upgrade recently, by any chance? if so, you'd need to reinstall the driver to build a module for the new kernel [11:48] by a program [11:48] i have ubuntu 9.10 on aspire 5530 there is a issue with mic ... after i installed GNOME alsa mixer gui i able to hear my self but still sound is not going to any program ... like skype [11:48] someone gave me a tutorial [11:48] funkey: and which program is this? [11:48] dr: mount -o :> [11:48] Dr_Willis: I'll try it [11:48] Xiella: I haven't heard anything yet. Your best bet is to check ubuntuforums.org and the bug list site, or just try it for yourself and see what happens. [11:48] d9500: i recently upgraded to karmic koala [11:48] firestart: erm, this is gonna sound stupid, but how do i accept [11:48] !bug [11:48] If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [11:48] funkey: most just require a fat16/32 filesystem with space for the files to fit. [11:48] Gnea: That's what I've just decided ;) Thanks [11:48] ^mNotIntelligent - it seems we are - normally i would go to alt ctrl f2 or f3 and login throuogh one of those sessions but i cant here [11:48] d9500: and I have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver [11:49] d9500: or whatever nvidia-glx-185 is [11:49] diam: by clicking on the forward button.. if there is none, if you have something that looks more like a DOS program, use TAB to navigate [11:49] netboot Dr_Willis [11:49] funkey: the flash drive does not have to be totally empty.. unless you are using some usb 'image' [11:49] funkey: ive never messed with netbooting . so cant help there.

[11:50] there is no OS [11:50] message [11:50] d9500: should I try rolling back to 173, just incase 185 is stuffed? [11:50] Hi There before I upgraded to karmic I installed grub2 and converted to ext4 and everything worked fine. Then I upgraded to karmic and somehow have a non-working version of grub1. How do I fix this?

I can get it to RUN, but it doesn't use global-menu nor does it follow my GTK theme (it's the themeless GTK). I followed this tutorial: http://www.gimpusers.com/news/2009-10-14/compiling-gimp-27-git-ubuntu-904-910.html [11:50] its a small app [11:50] one moment [11:50] I am on Mint Gloria (Ubutu Jaunty) [11:51] funkey: sounds like it missed a few steps [11:51] <^mNotIntelligent> moDumass, oh no ! [11:51] d9500: in the source code i mean... [11:51] !mint [11:51] firestart: one was 'quiet splash', does that sound right? [11:51] There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang) [11:51] Got it to work now, was something called minimal view [11:51] silare: we don't support mint here [11:51] Dr_Willis: Also did the same problem with Karmic. [11:51] firestart: right, its installed [11:51] diam: yes.. that's just grub crap that i have no idea how to configure, but it doesn't matter b/c i got it to run :) [11:51] Gnea: Also did the same problem with Karmic. [11:51] poyntz: it's worth a shot. also, if 173 does not work, if you manually download the 185 installer from nvidia's website and run it, it should wipe any remaining bits of the 185 driver you have on the system and then install the driver, which might fix it in the event that the original install was borked somehow. [11:51] pls [11:51] help me [11:51] ^mNotIntelligent - You mean, ahhh, i seeee - and then, hmmm [11:51] ChrisH i've tried to explain better my problem here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1309226 can you have a look please ? thx [11:51] with mic issue [11:52] silare: compiling regular software is out of the scope of this help channel [11:52] is it possible to log in as invisible in empathy?

[11:52] but i dont have it in my history can someone repaste that link ? [11:52] silare: gimp already comes with karmic, you shouldn't need to compile another version. [11:52] sicilian_dragon was his nick [11:52] diam: ok now before you run the next step, i'll warn you that if there is an issue, it might make your computer unbootable (1%< chance).. in that case you can always fire up the live cd, open x-chat and get some high-level support from people on #grub :) [11:52] Gnea: No. It has GIMP 2.6.7. I want GIMP 2.7. [11:52] would be very great [11:52] can anyone tell me how to invoke grub2 from the liveCD? [11:53] diam: now run the following command.. sudo upgrade-from-grub-legacy [11:53] diam: sudo upgrade-from-grub-legacy [11:53] d9500: i'll try that. best to have the latest anyhow. should i go for a deb or a source? also, do i have to uninstall 185 first? [11:53] diam: once you run it, you should get a nicer boot menu, which WILL recognize vista as well as karmic :) [11:53] <^mNotIntelligent> moDumass, we're moving round n round with no visible results yet [11:53] silare: then you should find the package maintainer for 2.6.7 and ask them for the procedure to make a package of 2.7 - or just install dependencies required for compiling software and compile it [11:53] !compile | silare [11:53] silare: Compiling software from source?

Because it keeps making my old computer scream bloody murder (lots of chirping) and it flashes odd things on the screen. [11:55] * FiReSTaRT prayin' fo brotha-diam :P [11:55] silare: it should simply use it, otherwise it's not using the correct libraries [11:55] does someone here the link that was pasted by sicilian_dragon in his history? [11:55] please [11:55] !install > funkey [11:55] funkey, please see my private message [11:55] <^mNotIntelligent> moDumass, feeling same....but lets alleast find some clue to fixing the problem [11:55] Gnea: Alright. So therefore there is a mixup with the libraries during runtime? [11:55] poyntz: it's binary only, no source available, except for the kernel source code that the installer compiles to interface with your kernel. if you download the 185 installer from nvidia's site, it will be a BIN (nvidia-linux-185.run or something) file, which you will need to execute manually from terminal with the X server not running. [11:55] Hi! does anyone know why my desktop has disappeared after the upgrade to 9.10 [11:56] Like: Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module": libcanberra-gtk-module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [11:56] i have installed an old pci graphics card in my box, cause i want to extend my desktop to another monitor.. lspci show the card, but how do i configure ubuntu to use it? [11:56] silare: it's possible, but only you can answer that. since you're compiling, i assume that you should know what you're doing. [11:56] silare: right [11:56] ^mNotIntelligent - problems are we cant mount some of the drives in fstab, and also cant read udev rules [11:57] Gnea: Great... So somehow I have to link that library back with GIMP 2.7. [11:57] <^mNotIntelligent> moDumass, even force mount din't work? [11:57] ^mNotIntelligent - and cant use keyboard and screen flashes [11:57] <^mNotIntelligent> moDumass, a lot of issues ! :-( [11:57] how can i get my CUPS server to ask me for a username and password rather than just give me a 403 when I try to access restricted pages? [11:57] poyntz: and yes, you should run "sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx-185 nvidia-180-kernel-source" first. the installer is supposed to wipe the old driver, but it cant hurt to be careful and get rid of the old one first anyway. [11:57] ^mNotIntelligent - and id rather not do a over riding re install if at all possible [11:57] bonjour à tous [11:58] <^mNotIntelligent> moDumass, agreed!

[11:59] whole desktop is just black [11:59] <^mNotIntelligent> moDumass, you might try a repair though...which is not exactly what you're looking for, btw [12:00] Every time my ethernetcable gets loose and i lose my internetconnection, I get a kernel failure. It's not that it's a problem, it's just that i get this little notification every time where I can choose to report the problem. Kinda silly, I'd say [12:00] dabukalam: AllowUser? [12:00] silare: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/08/how-to-install-gimp-27-in-ubuntu-jaunty.html also includes howto for karmic [12:00] ^mNotIntelligent - ive already done a package repair [12:00] legend2440: Thanks, but this one's an older GIMP 2.7... It lacks the newer features that the current GIMP 2.7 has. [12:01] moDumass, when you install it doesn't force you to reformat. [12:01] How do I change console resolution in grub 2? I used to be able to just do a vga=791 or whatever... [12:01] i need to know if anyone here has or is having this problem? i'm thinking about starting a bug report to get this solved: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1297318 [12:01] moDumass, but you probably should reformat the all the partitions except /home and any others you have data.

Nothing debian related... [12:03] firestart: where did you say i could find that hi level support chat? [12:03] ^mNotIntelligent - the first thing im aiming for is getting to a "normal login screen" [12:03] diam: do /join #grub (here in xchat)... i'm assuming it's still not recognizing vista? [12:03] firestart: its not booting at all, im speaking through a live cd =( [12:04] moDumass, i don't recommend not reformatting the system libraries. but if memory serves i think you can decide not to do that, too. [12:04] poyntz: i'm looking into the 190.42 now. http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_190.42.html there is no .deb file. it's a terminal only generic installer. [12:04] right, love ya and leave ya [12:04] my isp provides me with username, password and service name and i`m supposed to use this information to connect to them any help? [12:04] i have hardy installed on a dell desktop with nfs sharing my home folder to my toshiba laptop running debian (lenny), works perfectly on the wired network. can't seem to get anything to show up on my laptop with nfs share when using wireless. is ipsec required for nfs share with wireless laptop? [12:04] diam: sorry about that buddy.. that did the trick for me.. fortunately you have grub2, so they should be able to hook you up with the right solution [12:04] i failed using network manager [12:04] d9500: which version should I download? [12:04] is anyone having THIS error upon bootup: One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted: [12:04] Dr_Willis [12:05] need your help again === moayad__ is now known as moayad [12:05] i am now in windows and try to install the iso againg correctly to the usb hdd [12:05] i use the application unetbootin [12:05] d9500: sorry, i'm using elinks - hence the question. in graphic mode i'm sure other options are available [12:05] ^mNotIntelligent - do you think a re install may fix this, dodddummy thanks for the suggestion though [12:05] MasterJimmy: that means that there is an invalid entry in the fstab - have you modified the file at all, or is the default one? [12:06] palmje, i know what it means now. last night i almost trashed my hard drive because of it. i'm trying to help those who are having this problem. [12:06] i have a problem..downloaded and tried to install #ubuntu 9.10 got as far as 3of6 for the keyboard it had picked UK so clicked forward it then jumped from 3of6 to 4of7 and no partition manager just a big white blank box click no where can you set the partition click forward and i'm told no root file system is found can you help [12:06] poyntz: no prob. however, according to nvidia's site, 190.42 does not support the geforce 7400 go. so that one's out of the question [12:07] palmje, this has been a big problem for several uses of ubuntu who were doing the upgrade. the upgrade fails and they can't boot or format the partitions. so the hard drive is stuck in limbo [12:07] moin [12:07] Dr_Willis do you want to see the tutorial i used? [12:07] has anybody tried the webn walk stick under ubuntu 9.10? [12:07] how do i get graphics output through my pci graphics card? as seen in this paste it is detected fine by the os (9.10) do i manually have to edit xorg.conf or is there a tool for it? [12:07] i think it's funny how one of the improvements which gets cited is "i like the new bootsplash" guess i'm the only one who just wants something to type in my userid and password and would rather the effort be spent elsewhere [12:07] http://pastebin.com/m7a1c83fc [12:07] are upgrades going ok? last time i did an upgrade install instead of fresh, the graphics were fucked [12:08] d9500: oh :/ [12:08] dodddummy word [12:08] poyntz: and yet when i put in that model and linux 32-bit as the OS, that's the driver it offers.

[12:10] shadow98: you'll need to go to the page for that PPA and install the key mentioned there [12:10] hmm [12:10] although, sidewalk, it could be due to the use of pulseaudio in 9.10 [12:10] Help! I bought a new SteelSeries Xai mouse, but xorg is configuring it as a keyboard, according to Xorg.0.log. I tried using hal to force its driver to "mouse", and then it detects 9 buttons and such, so it obviously has some communication with it, but the mouse still doesn't work as expected. The buttons will randomly close windows on the screen, and moving the mouse does nothing. [12:11] dodddummy yeah, but thats true for almost all the problems i encountered yet..only a question of priorities/time.. [12:11] Blank__: oh I there was pulseaudio before, but then it worked, why have the ubuntupeople destroyed a perfect installation?

[12:33] but thank you for your help [12:34] ph33r: why not upgrade to karmic ? [12:34] poyntz: no, that's for the framebuffer, not the kernel module. it does seem like it's not building the nvidia.ko kernel module. just to get back to a gui, have you tried replacing driver "nvidia" in xorg.conf with driver "vesa". if it works, the screen resolution will be crap, but you'll at least be able to navigate more quickly...unless your terminal-fu is a lot better than mine, that is :) [12:34] I just wanted to make a positive feedback [12:34] great [12:34] lstarnes, in the instructions it says to install these packages for example compizconfig-settings-manager do i need to specify that I am using the 64 bit [12:34] Are there known sound issues on ubuntu 9.10 ?

[12:40] it is just I get used to it [12:40] poyntz: probaly not. that may be while it was failing to install earlier. the kernel module is, afaik, built from source by gcc when the installer is run. if it's expecting a different gcc, then perhaps it's erroring out instead of finishing the install. [12:41] d9500: nah, before I was installing via the Ubuntu repos [12:41] the funny thing is that after installing the netbook remix, I cant start from it [12:41] would anyone happen to know a good website cms alternative to joomla/drupal etc? [12:41] but the standard one works good [12:41] ph33r: seems like I can't find another ppa neither .. maby try upgrading :P [12:41] poyntz: using the hardware drivers menu in administration, or using apt-get in terminal?

I installed the windows driver (8192se, thats what the pre-installed vista uses). "ndiswrapper -l" shows the driver is loaded and the hardware is detected, but network manager doesn't appear to see it. What can I do? [12:46] !9.10 | thepro [12:46] thepro: Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910 [12:46] legend2440, that's interesting. now though i have the led off but keypad active... -_- [12:46] ubottu: ty [12:46] You're welcome!

[12:46] ? [12:47] vado [12:47] a presto [12:47] I put it in /etc/X11/default-display-manager and set it with dpkg-reconfigure but it still isn't loading. [12:47] poyntz: possibly. i don't have that directory in my install. are there foo.c and foo.h files in there? [12:47] its a live cd and i have tried to reinstall it several times and still the same problem eido [12:47] are my messages even making it through to IRC? [12:47] ango: all mixers are ~50% :-( [12:47] cheater99: yes [12:47] am back [12:47] So how do i get that option in grub 2 where it does press esc to enter grub and then does a countdown and if you don't press esc it just boots into whatever you put [12:47] well, at least that much is good. [12:47] :) [12:48] cheater99: yes [12:48] even redownloded it and tried again eido [12:48] koichirose: ctrl+numlock does the same thing on mine. maybe try that [12:48] cheater99: Try running Synaptic from the Administration menu, use it to update [12:48] so... can someone tell me why there are suddenly 100's of items in my update manager? [12:48] cheater99: Or even, "sudo apt-get upgrade" in Terminal [12:48] hello there - ive installed ubuntu 9.10 and have some problems with my wlan (BCM4312) - when i click hardware driver, it tells me that i can activate some, but its not able to download and install them (just nothing happens -> server down?) - i was able to activate the broadcom b43 wireless driver by intsalling b43-fwcutter - but i was not able to activate the broadcom sta funk lan driver? can anyone help me out so i can get my wla [12:48] tetiana, is there a MM in the boxes under them if so highlight the muted ones and hit "m" it will unmute it [12:48] Tesssa, what kinda computer? [12:48] * ebouza_ Good morning everyone [12:48] and it seems i am not the only one with the problem eido [12:48] grawity: i use the update manager every time it pops up, to install the updates. but it's usually 5 items or so. this time it's hundreds. [12:49] grawity: and some of them are permanently deselected. [12:49] my puter is a amd64 quad eido [12:49] legend2440, thanks :) is that a 9.10 'bug' or something? [12:49] it also tells me that i have to perform a 'partial update' because some packages might be unavailable or discontinued.. [12:49] karmic takes ages to boot up, what fucking speed up were they talking about [12:49] cheater99: new version just released. updates are more frequent an bigger ... [12:49] Can someone give me a helping hand in figuring out why I am getting the following error: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host [12:49] lost connection [12:49] koichirose: no it did same thing in jaunty [12:49] MAAAAD: watch your language please [12:49] erUSUL: does this mean i will lose some of the software i have installed right now? [12:50] ebouza: Can you ping the remote machine? [12:50] legend2440, not to me, it worked as always with 904.. [12:50] cheater you using jaunty [12:50] d9500: it doesn't matter the .run installation failed anyway :/ [12:50] cheater99: i do not see why upgrading packages can result in loosing them ? [12:50] I can't get to set up my microphone on Karmic.. It used to work on Jaunty. :( [12:50] kevdog: I am just now setting up my SSH Server [12:50] erUSUL: some of the packages are permanently deselected. why is it that way? [12:50] ebouza: On the same machine or two different machines? [12:51] kevdog: Same machine [12:51] nvidia gforce graphice and a terrabyte sata drive eido [12:51] cheater99: they depend on some other package that still is not upgraded ? [12:51] erUSUL: for example 'abiword' is on the update manager, with an empty box, and it can't be checked. [12:51] ebouza: OK -- do you have any firewalls in place? [12:51] jonasfa, front mic prt or rear? [12:51] erUSUL: ah.. [12:51] front [12:51] om26er, i think so. I'm using 9.9 i think [12:51] ango: didn't tried rear port yet [12:51] So how do i get that hidden menu press esc to enter grub menu in grub 2? [12:51] kevdog: Not that I know [12:51] ebouza: You don't need firewalls I just want to make sure you haven't configured any by mistake === Monte is now known as orksbane [12:52] cheater99: 9.04 or 9.10? [12:52] oh [12:52] i just checked the 'about' page. [12:52] Thank you for your interest in Ubuntu 9.04 - the Jaunty Jackalope - released in April 2009. [12:52] Tesssa, just a thought, but maybe it doesn't like the sata controller. can you see and access the drive in a live mode before trying to install [12:52] ebouza: Can you type sudo iptables -L and just make sure the default policy on all 3 chains is ACCEPT? [12:52] 9.04 works fantastic on it eido [12:52] open a terminal and type in alsamixer, highlight front mic and hit "m" then use the up arrow to turn up the volume [12:52] it seems that 9.10 has *lost* /dev/sdb1 ... [12:53] poyntz: it failed again? crap. for what it's worth, i think the directory should be /usr/src/2.6.31.14, if the sources are installed. [12:53] jonasfa, ^^ [12:53] juro: lost is not possible [12:53] erUSUL: so once i update other packages, the unselectable ones will be possible to update? [12:53] d9500: i get this message that I have to run dkms build... not sure how to do it (that's the message I get when I install 173 via the repos [12:53] what more features have been added to ubuntu 9.10 except that were in 9.04 version [12:53] havent a clue eido dont intend to mess about in it [12:53] ebouza: When you set up the sshd_conf file -- Did you change anything -- port number, change from password to key authentictation? Are you using password or key authentication? [12:53] alright [12:53] that makes sense.. [12:53] poyntz: is dkms installed? [12:53] d9500: i think that could be the reaon it's failing... because it related to the missing nvidia.ko file... [12:53] too bad the update manager's user interface doesn't explain this :) thanks a lot guys [12:53] d9500: yep [12:54] cheater99: no; most likely once the devs releas aonther bunch of updated packages [12:54] poyntz: if it's not, then run sudo apittude install dkms fakeroot diff [12:54] kevdog: Give me a second helping my daughter with homework [12:54] d9500: nah it is [12:54] erUSUL cool! [12:54] thanks guys. [12:54] that was really doing my head in. [12:54] d9500: i can use the command dkms build [12:54] what more features have been added to ubuntu 9.10 except that were in 9.04 version [12:54] om26er: it seems that way .... fdisk /dev/sdb reports there being one but fsck.ext3 reports there not being such a file or directory [12:54] got to be somethin in 9.10 as 9.04 works perfect eido === wertik_rus is now known as wertik_rus|busy [12:54] poyntz: and fakeroot and diff too? [12:55] Tesssa, well under places your drive should be listed. if it works in 9.04 why don't you just upgrade using package manager [12:55] d9500: yep [12:55] juro: pastebin you fstab [12:55] ango: still doesn't work... :( [12:55] what more features have been added to ubuntu 9.10 except that were in 9.04 version [12:55] is keyserver.ubuntu.com down?

[13:18] ecolitan: fro example, on http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/kaffeine on the bottom of the page "download ..." [13:18] omani, ? [13:19] Hi. My friend installed 9.10 and grub doesn't want to boot his XP partition. It just hangs. The layout is that there is a small Vista partition on sdb1 which chains to sdb5. We've tried changing grub to boot sdb5 directly but no beans. Any ideas? [13:19] ecolitan: but those packages will assume that they are installed on the older release, i.e. that the dependencies are also from that older release. Simply installing them on karmic might break things [13:19] Dr_Willis: You'll have to excuse my noobiness it's just the new grub is quite complicated, i see what you mean there thanks === MasterJimmy is now known as Psinetic [13:19] albi: i'll give it a go, cant break it worse [13:19] mickster04, sry. i meant conb123 [13:20] Using karmic, I am trying to get wifi working with a realtek 8172 wifi card (thinkpad T500 laptop). I installed the windows driver (8192se, thats what the pre-installed vista uses) with ndisgtk. "ndiswrapper -l" shows the driver is loaded and the hardware is detected, but network manager doesn't appear to see it. What can I do? [13:20] zetheroo: To my best understanding -- empathy does not do IRC!! [13:20] 9.10 i386 boots to the splash screen with the white line, goes to black and then loops back to the splash screen. Any ideas. I have been fighting this for three days now. [13:20] kevdog: gadz ... [13:20] kevdog: It does, AFAIK. But it's really a pain. [13:20] zetheroo: Install pidgin (very latest) from ppa -> https://launchpad.net/~pidgin-developers/+archive/ppa [13:21] well, i'm trying to install xubuntu with alternate cd, but whenever i select an option it will hang and hdd will stay lit all the time, is this normal? [13:21] who the %^&* decides that Empathy is better than Pidgin? ... without a key feature ... damn [13:21] Dr_Willis: Ok and now when i update-grub it should boot into my GRUB_DEFAULT by default yes? [13:21] zetheroo: IRC is _not_ a key feature for an IM client. [13:21] zetheroo: canonical [13:21] thanks n2diy [13:21] conb123: im not sure hat that script did. I just glanced at it. [13:21] grawity: says who? [13:21] * kevdog just a thought: I don't use any IM client (empathy, pidgin for IRC anyways). xchat, chatzilla work for me!! [13:21] BlouBlou: yep [13:21] conb123: try it and see.. here on mine it boots to the default #1 entry anyway after a set time. [13:21] Hello. I wanted to ask a simple question. How can I package the ubuntu-restricted-extras meta-package into one simple .deb file? [13:22] zeroXten: GL [13:22] zetheroo: If IRC really was a key feature for Pidgin (an IM client), it wouldn't suck that much... [13:22] what was the way to start a gui on a server using ssh? [13:22] kevdog; thanks ... I guess I'll go back to using Pidgin [13:22] i want to use environments which are lightweight than gnome and kde, which you will recommend ? [13:22] saadmn: why would you want to do that? [13:22] grawity: nevermind ;-) [13:22] Anyone can help me with this problem please: I have a webcam which used to work fine on my Ubuntu 9.04. Now on the .10 (on another PC) it is just displaying pink lines. Thanks! [13:22] saadmn: you would have to get the packages it depends on, and build a package from that [13:22] @abli: I want to distribute it to others who don't have an internet connection but use ubuntu [13:22] raven_: You mean tunneling the X connection? [13:22] morpheuss: xfce. [13:22] morpheuss: theres a web site that reviews most window managers. google for 'window managers for x' (its like plig.org) and see what you like [13:23] abli: I have the packages. could you please help me with it? [13:23] kevdog, right [13:23] morpheuss: it all depends on your needs and what you want to have/not have. [13:23] * juro wishes he would never have clicked on "upgrade now" [13:23] raven_: ssh -X ....... [13:23] I want to change the resolution of tty1 > tty6. I did this by editing '/boot/grub/menu.lst' in 9.04 but this file doesn't exist in 9.10 anymore [13:23] kevdog, ok tnx [13:23] http://xwinman.org/ summary of most WM's out [13:23] saadmn: If you have all the packages, just put them in a directory, distribute that, and tell them to do "dpkg -i *" in that directory [13:23] Hi, installed 9.10 now system level fonts not working in gnome pop-ups and OO - any thoughts? [13:23] raven_: Do you have the xauth package installed on the server as well? [13:23] Dr_Willis: It tells me /etc/grub.d/50_Mystuff: 6: Syntax error: EOF in backquote substitution [13:24] saadmn: i.e. if you have some .deb files, you can install them with "dpkg -i", without a network connection [13:24] kevdog, think so [13:24] and where is the driver installer? I have nvidia gfx [13:24] yes [13:24] abli: thanks. But should the files be in the same directory? [13:24] irc.xchannel.org [13:24] if ubuntu is based on the debian, what is the work of ubuntu? [13:24] abli: or should I make special directories and control files, etc. [13:24] <[ilin]> hi, i am upgrading 9.04>9.10. do i need to keep the local version of menu.lst or install the package maintainer's one? thanks! [13:24] Hi, Noob wondering if this is the right place to ask questions concerning flash playback problems in karmic? [13:24] raven_: Just make you sure do!!! [13:25] should I just install nvidia-glx-185-dev ? [13:25] kevdog, yes its working [13:25] it is easiest that way. You could make something similar to an installer cd which is basically an apt repository on a cd, but that would be more work. [13:25] What's the best way to install enlightenment on karmic? [13:26] saadmn: see the aptoncd package, that might help [13:26] MaT-dg; You can change the resolution instartupmanager not sure if it changes t1 etc [13:26] I wish to install ubuntu or xubuntu on an SD Memory card (2GB). I noticed that xubuntu is quite fast and I do also appreciate xfree to gnome or kde. It makes desktop management faster. Question #1: Are all applications available for ubuntu available also for xubuntu? Question #2 All support for xubuntu where can it be taken? from ubuntu? [13:26] if lspci say: 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 86C326 5598/6326 (rev 92)' does that mean the correct driver is already loaded in the kernel or just that lspci see the pci card? [13:26] saadmn: (for the "more sophisticated than just a bunch of debs in a dir" case) [13:26] abli: yes, I have the aptoncd package. But I want to be able to distribute it as a simple .deb file. Is there a way to do it? [13:26] how to install nvidia drivers for the new ubuntu [13:27] abli: I can send them a .zip file containing all the .deb files, and tell them to install the ubuntu-restricted-extras.deb file [13:27] can i manually resize the /usr partition ? i tried it with gparted but i cannot how cani do that [13:27] abli: But I would prefer to have just one .deb file which I can distribute [13:27] albech: run lspci -v that should give you verbose output telling you what the kernel module for each hardware device is. [13:27] albech: no, it just says that your pccids database is up-to-date [13:27] nice [13:27] om26er1: so live cd can axess /dev/sdb1 without any problems [13:27] gmail crashes firefox [13:27] pciids [13:28] saadmn: then simply tell them to do "dpkg -i *" instead of "dpkg -i some_package.deb" [13:28] can i manually resize the /usr partition ? i tried it with gparted but i cannot how cani do that [13:28] gnubie: thx, where can I find this startupmanager? [13:28] wow!!! [13:28] abli: I understand. Thank you for your help. But is there any way to package them all into a single, large .deb file? [13:28] thats gonna piss some people off [13:28] MaT-dg; nope it is the bootloader resolution [13:28] hi all any ideo where i would change the "timeout" time on my bluetooth? It will browse pis fine but on my music folder it times out [13:28] hi [13:28] MaT-dg; I install via synaptic [13:28] can i manually resize the /usr partition ? i tried it with gparted but i cannot how cani do that [13:28] I wish to install ubuntu or xubuntu on an SD Memory card (2GB). I noticed that xubuntu is quite fast and I do also appreciate xfree to gnome or kde. It makes desktop management faster. Question #1: Are all applications available for ubuntu available also for xubuntu? Question #2 All support for xubuntu where can it be taken? from ubuntu? [13:29] abli: The users would simply click the .deb file to install everything which is needed. [13:29] saadmn: It might be possible... but would screw up updating and other things. [13:29] hi [13:29] NO one is using Enlightenment? [13:29] d9500, http://pastebin.com/m34fd9b86 [13:29] saadmn: It is _possible_ but its much more work and not really worth it. [13:29] grawity: My friends are offline. They don't have internet. I don't think they would be updating _anything_ [13:29] can i manually resize the /usr partition ? i tried it with gparted but i cannot how cani do that [13:30] saadmn: you could include a small install.sh script that simply does "sudo dpkg -i *" and tell your users to run that script. [13:30] MaT-dg; It shows up in the admin menu after install [13:30] how to update my graphic card on ubuntu [13:30] abli: Thanks for your help, anyway. I'll search around to see if its possible [13:30] plz some one help me ! [13:30] can i manually resize the /usr partition ? i tried it with gparted but i cannot how cani do that [13:30] ravenger: You don't need a seperate /usr partition [13:30] why can't I mount my /dev/sdb1 in 9.10? it worked 100% in 9.04 [13:31] Hi I'm having issues getting DVDs to play in VLC media player, I have no issues playing DVDs that I make copys of but rented dvds I can't play [13:31] SAngeli: Not sure about #1, and for #2 you can find support here, and in #xubuntu. [13:31] ravenger: you should use lvm [13:31] <[ilin]> hi, i am upgrading 9.04>9.10. do i need to keep the local version of menu.lst or install the package maintainer's one? thanks! [13:31] sebsebseb: but i already gave that partion during the installation [13:31] gnubie: ok found it, but my native resolution isn't listed. Any idea's how to add? [13:31] hmmm, its a lot quieter in #ubuntu-kernel :) [13:31] [ilin]: depends if you've made any specifik changes to it [13:31] albech: open synaptic and run a search for xserver-xorg-video-sis. does it show as installed? [13:31] ravenger: You cant resize a partition thats in use either. use a live cd and gparted from the live cd to resize perhaps. [13:32] ravenger: A partition needs to be unmounted before it can be resized. So Ubuntu partitions get resized usaully on the Live CD so that they aren't being used by the OS. [13:32] tommy^x: is it another partioning software like gparted [13:32] n2diy, thks. do you also know if is it possibile to have all or part of System Rescue CD applications installed on both ubuntu and xubuntu? [13:32] where can i find the default sources for apt? [13:32] ravenger: its a logical volum manager, much better than using static partition sizes [13:32] SAngeli: No, I don't. [13:33] d9500, yes [13:33] Is there any guides how to get proper dvd playback? [13:33] sebsebseb: so now what shall i do for resizing the partioning [13:33] ravenger: you will prolly need a reinstallation though :/ [13:33] netecho: Medibuntu for playing commercial DVD's [13:33] Is it possible to download packages now? Yesterday, I couldn't because everyone was updating [13:33] netecho: define"proper" [13:33] ravenger: reboot to livecd and do it from there [13:33] !medibuntu | netecho [13:33] netecho: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [13:33] kevdog, is possible to tunnel files trough ssh for example to convert a local file using ffmpeg on the server without copying to a netdrive? [13:33] mathepic: ive had no issues in the last day or so [13:33] Does anyone know if is it possibile to have all or part of System Rescue CD applications installed on both ubuntu and xubuntu? [13:33] n2diy, thank you [13:34] tommy^x: but i got theni will loose the data isnt it ? [13:34] sebsebseb, I might have an issue getting packages from aptitude, the work firewall might block it [13:34] why isnt lvm available from the standard ubuntu install?! [13:34] * kevdog I thought grub could only resize the last available partition if there was any free additional space. To get to other partitions, you needed to sequentially delete them -- correct? [13:34] SAngeli: GL [13:34] raven_: you could use sshfs to mount a remote machine via ssh to a local directory and do that. [13:34] tommy^x: I guess, because most users don't need it [13:34] hi all! what if, after having upgraded to Karmic, flash player (the one given with ubuntu-resticted-extras) doesn't recognize clic (but it recognizes mousehover and so...) [13:34] ? [13:34] tommy^x: i want resize it so that in the remaining space i want install the win xp [13:34] MaT-dg; hmm it has my native res. Don't know. This tool is supposed the be in it's initial stages. === BlouBlou is now known as Guest57022 [13:34] <[ilin]> tommy^x, i haven't, i've only updated 9.04 regulary and now trying to upgrade to 9.10 and i get this question. what do i do? [13:34] raven_: You mean copy the file to the server? [13:35] [ilin]: press yes =) [13:35] On upgrading to Karmic Koala, I have been unable to get the IR receiver of my Hauppauge 1600 card to load. A /dev/lircd is created, but /dev/lirc0 is never created. [13:35] tommy^x: is my approach correct or i should resize /home for that [13:35] kevdog, yes but without copying the file before the command but to copy it while converting === BlouBlou_ is now known as BlouBlou [13:35] tommy^x: r u there [13:35] device drivers should have more documentations [13:35] ravenger: /usr has a very static size so you should resize that partition [13:36] raven_: You mean copy the result file (during the conversion) to the other machine? [13:36] or not [13:36] albech: ok. i don't know much about SiS cards. hmm...is the correct driver specified in xorg.conf? [13:36] nice fiber connection they got here [13:36] tommy^x: so it can be done through the lvm right [13:36] how to change the language for xchat [13:36] hi.. [13:36] i type in english but my standard language in ubuntu is different [13:36] every word is marked unknown here [13:36] raven_: I think the best way to do this would be to mount the remote driver as a local drive -- which would require nfs, cifs, or samba. [13:37] how to change that [13:37] ravenger: no, reboot to livecd and use gparted [13:37] when is end of life for 8.04 plz [13:37] kevdog, right - tunneling the recource file to the server and the result to the client during the ffmpeg command [13:37] anyone know of a good replacement for the battstatus applet that got removed? [13:37] raven_: or 'sshfs' [13:37] b0n1: what lang. are you looking for? [13:37] is the tv tuner card of frontech supported in ubuntu? [13:37] d9500, its ok i appreciate all the help i can get to start trouble shoot it.. no i believe only the internal graphics card is specified in xorg.conf. I want to use the old sis card for my secondary monitor. [13:37] english [13:37] Dr_Willis: Or sshfs! :) [13:37] hello, where is the system>administration>services (upto jaunty) tool in karmic?

My server is named media-server.local --is that going to mess with Avahi? [13:38] hi [13:38] Dr_Willis: I've been using alsamixer, but I would really like the little speaker icon by the clock that I had before upgrading to Karmic [13:39] tommy^x: i have doubt: if reboot i will enter the partion manager then there i have to do the resizing or after rebooting in the desktop environment i have to run the gparted [13:39] pls.. can anybody help? [13:39] vertagano: check the repo for some alterantvie i guess. [13:39] d9500: still no luck [13:39] its 2013 [13:39] b0n1: i really have no idea on that.. maybe thsi will help... http://translationproject.org/domain/xchat.html [13:39] thats ok [13:39] i have a tv tuner card of frontech company.. is it supported? [13:39] d9500, i have a feeling that I may have to configure the card manually in xorg.conf [13:40] d9500: I spent ages trying to install all the different .31 linux-image packages but all of them failed [13:40] I'd actually like my ssh to work first time - this having to restart it so that it works is going to become impractical [13:40] 8.04 server support ends 2013, cool [13:40] albech: lol, not in 9.10... [13:40] hi, i installed karmic yesterday. while running from an live-stick my sound card is detected right, but after installing its not listet by aplay -l anymore [13:40] d9500: it's as if nothing wants to work [13:40] in case anyone else asks [13:40] albech: yes, and probably a custom config. i don't think just copying a template would work. [13:40] IndyGunFreak, why is that? [13:40] da65: by then it it will be like win 3.x [13:40] has anyone else got 'telephaty-butterfly' closes unexpectedly error message? [13:40] its a server [13:40] albech: cuz 9.10 doesn't use xorg.conf... unless you do it manually === MasterJimmy is now known as Psinetic [13:40] im looking for some advice on a motherboard, mainly for a VM server host [13:40] I can't seem to get my laptop hdd to spin down. Gnome setting in power manager does not work and laptop mode (as i have used in the past) does not respond to change in power events, are things different in Karmic ? [13:40] anyone? Avahi and .local? [13:41] ravenger: reboot to live cd. use gparted on the partition you want to resize. [13:41] long as it serves I will be happy [13:41] anyone else able to load gmail in firefox? [13:41] Rods_Tiger: update-rc.d ssh defaults [13:41] I just did the firefox ubuntu update and all of a sudden I can't get to gmail [13:41] and has securuty updates, etch ends early next year [13:41] seme, yes i am using it now. [13:41] On upgrading to Karmic Koala, I have been unable to get the IR receiver of my Hauppauge 1600 card to load. A /dev/lircd is created, but /dev/lirc0 is never created. [13:41] it looks like it is failing when it tries to do the ajax loading of the additional content areas [13:41] d9500: i might just have to wait till this month's internet billing period terminates, and then just download the karmic torrent, backup my files and do a fresh install. (unfortunately can't do it this month cause i'm nearly out of quota) [13:41] Hi there. Quick question: just started the Netbook remix (live mode), but how do I go back to "normal" desktop? [13:41] Ububegin, you running with the new updates? [13:42] FoolsRun: Depends on how name resolution (/etc/nsswitch.conf) is configured... if mDNS (avahi) goes after files/dns, then it shouldn't affect your current domain. [13:42] wolfi [13:42] d9500: i don't think it's possible at this stage. with all the set backs to get ubuntu up and running with a GUI this month, so it'll be DreamLinux for the rest of this billing cycle === floopsie is now known as Floops [13:42] poyntz: or try nouveau in the meantime, if you were able to successfully remove the binary driver.

[13:44] FoolsRun: And your .local domain is DNS? Or /etc/hosts? [13:44] is it normal that notifications are placed lower? [13:44] mohanohi: or the mythbuntu forums. [13:44] grawity: /etc/hosts [13:44] Dr_Willis: I deselcted that, it does still bloody startup! [13:44] hi [13:44] d9500: thanks heaps for your help anyhow. i might just backup everything and do a fresh install. it's not worth the time i'm dedicating to fix it [13:44] FoolsRun: Then it takes precedence over DNS and Avahi. [13:44] when ever I try to install a package with apt-get install I this message:dpkg-trigger: dpkg-trigger must be called from a maintainer script (or with a --by-package option).

[13:44] test [13:44] wiehan, accessibility tab in keyboard preferences. [13:44] grawity: so it it probably screwing up avahi? I'm not sure I totally understand the issue [13:44] d9500: oh. but without the kernals updating surely it's useless as well... [13:44] thanks Ubuntimus! that works [13:45] *kernels [13:45] MaT-dg: Obviously yes. Same here. [13:45] FoolsRun: I'm not sure I totally understand your issue either... [13:45] poyntz: just out of curiosity, did you try my fix for at least getting you back to a gui, using the vesa driver, so you can use a web browser and irc client that isn't text based [13:45] wieham, no probs, i had same problem. [13:46] Crowley2: hmm, I don't like it, you know how to change it? === Ubuntimus is now known as N1ckR [13:46] hi im having problems with my hdd i cant copy anything, it has ~106 bad sectors, what can i do ? [13:46] homunkoloss42: Buy a new HDD? [13:46] grawity: heh. Fair enough. I'm asking because Avahi doesn't seem to startup normally at boot time since upgrading to Karmic. Restarting it once the server is up makes it work fine, but at boot time it doesn't give me any services.

Correct? [13:58] i am a sort of new guy [13:58] apps: i think people on the same local lan. [13:58] come trovo dei drivers [13:58] Dr_Willis, will I have to wait until the next release, or will something be released for Karmic?

[13:59] Dr_Willis, I know about going to /etc/init and /etc/rcX.d [13:59] apps, I think it Bonjour the name of the protocol. So that way you can speak with ppl in your network, with out having to add them. [13:59] i thought i was people close to me in the building/internet locations hmmm [13:59] Dr_Willis, but I prefer GUI solutions, especially on Ubuntu, since it is the GUI-oriented distro. [13:59] apps, its ppl in the same network/lan you are in [14:00] how to set a restore point and take backup of datas in ubuntu like in windows ? [14:00] oic thnaks [14:00] apps, but they have to have that feature enabled 2 [14:00] It's not very appealing for new users to have to run things in a terminal or modify text files.

Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) [14:00] Dr_Willis, on Jaunty, I used Boot-Up Manager to disable many unneeded services, and it helped a lot, especially on my netbook. [14:01] BUM can stillmanage those few services that are handled by the sysv part of upstart [14:01] mastermind1: never heard of such facility [14:01] albech: neither card is specifically listed in xorg.conf, then. is that the xorg.conf that was made when you installed ubuntu, or did you run Xorg-configure? [14:01] mastermind1, what version of ubuntu [14:01] I'm using the LiveUSB tool in 9.10 and I have hit an error - the usb drive has stopped flashing and the progressbar is still flashing and the consol box is infrench and last entry is Erreur:parted(1). What does it mean for me? Do I need to restart from scratch? [14:01] hi icarus [14:01] Dr_Willis, but bum is reading them incorrectly. For example, it says HAL is not running or enabled, when it actually is. [14:02] apps, Pidgin has that also, its called Bonjour :) [14:02] flan_suse: becuse HAL is getting ran by upstart not the sysv stuff. [14:02] Dr_Willis, oh I see. [14:02] d9500, this is a clean install.. kind of 9.04 clean install directly upgraded to 9.10 due to missing media [14:02] /etc/init/hal.conf [14:02] igama seriously i didnt know that!!! wow thanks for the info [14:02] mikc, just to see if i am correct: I will point install and bookloader to the memory stick. by doing so, my current HD should not be modified. Correct? [14:02] flan_suse: the are some overlaping of service scripts with Upstart and sysv. for example GDM. [14:02] igama, seriously i didnt know that!!! wow thanks for the info [14:02] I'm wondering if my avahi issues could be related to the order that things start at bootup. I don't see avahi in rc.d, so it must be starting some other way --can anyone tell me how avahi starts and how I could move it to a later time in the process? [14:02] Dr_Willis:　How do I open this Guest_share feature?　Can't find it. All I　need is my stepmania song pack for my stepmania folder [14:02] Dr_Willis, I just hope some of these missing features are brought back to Karmic, and still make use of the new bootup process. [14:03] since there is no registry per se in linux... why can't I just run installed 9.04 binaries under 9.10? [14:03] SAngeli: it should not. [14:03] Anyone can help me with this problem please: I have a webcam which used to work fine on my other Ubuntu 9.04. Now on a new installed .10 (on another PC) it is just displaying pink lines. Thanks! [14:03] Dr_Willis, so for now, I guess I'll just go through /etc/init and do it manually.

[14:03] Dr_Willis, thanks for the insight, none-the-less. I like learning new things about the OS I'm using. [14:03] erUSUL: so its a matter of dependencies? [14:03] albech: backup the existing xorg.conf, and ctrl alt f1, then sudo service gdm stop, then run Xorg-configure. see if that gets you a xorg.conf that lists both cards and their drivers. [14:03] jiohdi: yes [14:03] flan_suse: one big point of the non LTS releases is to add new features/test things for preperation for the next LTS. Upstart is very much a work in progress [14:04] erusul [14:04] so if all the dependencies are set up, it will work? [14:04] *** off course *** [14:04] hi guys, is keyserver.ubuntu.com down? [14:04] flan_suse: compared to the configs and stuff sysv uses.. upstart is rather straight forward. :) move the file out of the init dir if you dont want to start the service. [14:04] hi does ubuntu have a gui for more stuff than other distros that use gnome? i mean have the ubuntu developers tweaked the gnome gui? [14:04] and what about kde [14:04] !keyserver | kimec [14:04] kimec: The ubuntu key server is to be found at http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371. If this one is unresponsive you can use most other gpg key servers as well - for instance http://pgp.mit.edu/ [14:04] cannot download pgp key for PPA [14:04] kimec: Use pool.sks-keyservers.net or keyserver.noreply.org [14:04] jiohdi: probably; but what are you exactly trying to do ? [14:05] gee, thanks guys [14:05] Dr_Willis, yeah I know. Karmic was a huge, sudden leap. I just hope Canonical doesn't start becoming a proprietary business. The "Ubuntu Software Center" sends chills up my spine. [14:05] erUSUL: avoid reinstalling all the binaries that are on a different partition from 9.04 [14:05] d9500, ok trying [14:05] Dr_Willis, actually, you don't even need to move the files out. I think you can just rename them. (I read on the forums to add .disabled to the filename.) [14:06] jiohdi: you want to use the programs installed on a 9.04 root partition in a 9.10 install ?? [14:06] SAngeli: but the best, if you don't really know what you are doing is to backup your data or remove the internal HDD [14:06] erUSUL: yes [14:06] jiohdi: no way that would work ... [14:06] !clone | jiohdi [14:06] jiohdi: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate [14:06] how do I re-arrange when services stat at boot time?

I get the feeling that the "Ubuntu Software Center" is just a place-holder for Canonical to sell proprietary software in the future. The same way iTunes evolved into a frontend for the Apple store... [14:09] FoolsRun: there were known issues with avahi.. i read somewhere [14:09] om26er, fullscreen [14:09] bastid_raZor yes i know freenode network but this is not a freenode network is UnlogicalIRC [14:09] bastid_raZor: I've only found stuff about the .local thing and that is not apparently my problem since it works when I manually restart it [14:10] om26er, make that always [14:10] flan_suse: I think its part of canonical's mission statement to insure that the software stay free [14:10] inimesekene: this is a driver problem. but also this is also the flash player that it does not support 3d acceleration [14:10] FoolsRun: right the .local .. didn't they list a possible workaround on the relasenotes page for karmic? [14:10] hello, i'm new to ubuntu, installed ubuntu 9.04 on a 3 year old toshiba, wifi is working sound too but i can't get the cdrom working, anyone can help?

[14:10] newbie1234: in windows [14:10] flan_suse: canonical makes its money on corporate support services [14:11] no can't mount [14:11] bastid_raZor: yeah, but the config file change to make it not care about .local didn't fix it, and also that bug seems to indicate that Avahi would NEVER work, and mine does work when I start it manually after boot [14:11] d9500, http://pastebin.com/m2a185b1e [14:11] notnow: this channel is #ubuntu .. type /topic for the topic.. please [14:11] !ot | flan_suse jiohdi [14:11] flan_suse jiohdi: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[14:11] hmm [14:11] d9500, i guess i can rename it to xorg.conf and try to restart the xserver [14:12] FoolsRun: ahh, see if you can find a bug # on launchpad and toss in your fix/workaround so that maybe the devs see it isn't an impossible fix. [14:13] bastid_raZor: maybe when I'm done formatting and rebuilding my machine --too many issues with Karmic. I have all Macs on my network and not having Avahi is a show-stopper. [14:14] join #rubyonrails [14:14] hi [14:14] albech: yes, but depending on what you want to do with each monitor, you may not be done. for a straight spanned display, a simple xorg.conf may be enough. otherwise, well, i've never even tried a dual monitor setup before, much less using one for say, your regular desktop environment and one to run videos, run realtime stock quotes, edit photos in gimp, run a fullscreen terminal, etc [14:14] have issue with mic [14:14] i have ubuntu 9.10 on aspire 5530 [14:14] FoolsRun: you could add them to /etc/hosts and just use hostnames.

But what i really want to fix and i have no idead where the problem is, is that sometimes (too many) firefox redirect a domain to GOOGLE domain - for example: www.ubuntu.com/karmic goes to www.google.com/karmic - and a error message appears saying tha [15:55] grawity, I'm no security expert but its basically taking a dmcrypt/luks setup and rather than requiring a password to log in -- its requiring a token kept on USB to login. I'm no password expert -- however I envision it to work in much the same was as ssh with keys [15:55] iWolf: I want to insert the script in startup applications. I won't be able to su. What do you suggest? [15:55] Crewsr3: but its not grub 2 if you dont trust me ask in #grub [15:56] om26er, what? [15:56] iceroot, I believe you, I was just supprized to see that it was a beta grub [15:56] Crewsr3: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Unified_Bootloader version 1.97 [15:56] kevdog: Dunno.

If not so, I have better luck in the past with NetBeans [16:34] smn_, sorry i just cant recall [16:34] sageNsand: Yes, though it's more commonly used for data files and such, not the question you're asking. Very long questions might be more suitable for the forum. [16:34] does gaprted come with ubun tu remix? [16:34] furuno, I don't have any JDK or build path setting in the preferences, and the projects I loaded tells me that I have missing stuff [16:34] Guest90312: delete the partition, and put a new one there with the final [16:34] must be usb [16:34] usser gonna install exaile and check it out [16:34] Yanick_, furuno eclipse blows the socks off netbeans any day of the month [16:34] icehawk78: Rtorrent is a commandline torrent client. So you could have it running in a shared screen session or something. [16:34] Guest90312: oh your on remix, I haven't used that one, but I guess it has gparted as well [16:34] omg. this really sucks. Ubuntu 9.10 is the shittiest distro I ever came in contact with. It just sort of crash and freez a little here and there and REMOVES your evolution stuffs!!!

Because 1) gwt for netbeans is outdated and does not work well, 2) we need it at university, 3) all my projects have been made with eclipse [16:35] usser : I'm a SCiTE lover :) [16:35] furuno, I do [16:35] Hald: That's probably a problem with Evolution not Ubuntu [16:35] furuno, otherwise eclipse would not run [16:35] does anyone have instructurions to install/use LVM with 9.10 desktop? I found several but can run the step 'modprobe dm-mod' - says no such module [16:35] icehawk78, how to find that without opening up the cpu ? [16:35] Yanick_ : I guess so... [16:35] furuno, scite is pretty good, but its a text editor, i also love geany [16:35] sebsebseb: Yhea thats true, but it came with ubuntu... [16:36] zakwilson: I understand, thanks [16:36] usser : 4 tiled text editor with code folding is all I need :), and I do PHP mainly...

If it's a stock model, you can probably just google it up to see what it comes with by default.

[17:17] smn_: try sound juicer.. you can probably acheive the same results. otherwise download the latest grip source from here http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/grip/grip-3.3.1.tar.gz?download [17:17] SporkWitch: yeah, pidgin sucks for an irc client(IMO) [17:17] furuno: what should be done? [17:17] RADY : I haven't tried older card yet on Karmic, my 4850 did fine [17:17] wb usser. i disabled the splash but it still froze on the white logo. [17:17] <_Narc_> louise: Well, there's no menu showing up in the manual partitioner... [17:17] IndyGunFreak, IRSSI FTW :P (on an aside, do you know where the file is that i need to modify to change default boot options? ) [17:17] messengers should not be used for IRC in my opinion. IRC clients should [17:17] Looking for best IRC client -- this xchat isnt quite knocking my socks off. I think Chatzilla is better -- but that too isn't great === _Sharker is now known as Sharker [17:18] kevdog: irssi ftw [17:18] furuno: in order to workaround the problem with open source driver? [17:18] irssi under screen ftw [17:18] IndyGunFreak, i just finished installing, but unless i set it to disable ACPI, it will refuse to accept keyboard and touchpad input [17:18] mrintegrity: yeah is named all over the place. also for the upload to fredb.org (which is the functionality i want/need). [17:18] hey Guys im Running Ubuntu 64 Bit in a VM And its Taken me to a Bash Page? [17:18] RADY : I guess Jaunty will be your best bet for somewhile... [17:18] BA^, no errors?

[17:18] RADY : or try using older kernel [17:18] was using irc whilst waiting in the dentist today.. via nokia e51 / putty / screen /irssi :D [17:18] BoredKender, mirc is handy for botting, that's about it [17:18] i didn't see any... is there a log file maybe? not sure of my vid card... [17:18] SporkWitch, exactly :) [17:18] IndyGunFreak, yeah, i just can't remember where it's stored [17:18] smn_: installed by default in ubuntu i think [17:19] SporkWitch: do a file search? [17:19] BA^, yes there's a log look in /var/log i dont remember which [17:19] smn_: apt-get install sound-juicer [17:19] IndyGunFreak, that doesn't occur to me, i'm used to windows where the search doesn't work lol [17:19] irssi -- Is it that good? [17:19] furuno: which version of old kernel? [17:19] <_Narc_> Anyone knows how to specify another hard disk during the Karmic manual partitioning process to point /home to an existing partition? Thanks a lot. [17:19] kevdog: irssi is the best, command prompt based client though so if your not that kind of person it might take some getting used to [17:19] and mIRC -- yea good stuff there [17:20] Ive been getting errors in multiboot everytime I run it, I can't find a log file to show but the error is something like : [17:20] kevdog, it's a really nice little CLI IRC client. simple, lightweight, and useful, and since it's CLI, you can kind of dock it in an embedded terminal, or use it during troubleshooting in a CLI [17:20] hi, I cannot play any lmms demo project. There is no error, I can see LMMS application in sound control app, but nothing happen when I click on play (Ubuntu 9.10) [17:20] SporkWitch: not cli client.. it uses a gui [17:20] (64 bits) [17:20] Ive been getting errors in multiboot everytime I run it, I can't find a log file to show but the error is something like : error:parted(1) [17:20] !grub2 | SporkWitch this might help as well. [17:20] SporkWitch this might help as well.: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [17:20] SporkWitch: ncurses based gui [17:20] anyone know how to fix this error in VMware [17:20] usser: i checked the log viewer for boot but it didn't have anything. do i have to enable something for it to log? [17:20] anyone knows whether this channel will be to ever settle down? [17:20] SporkWitch -- If im running it from the CLI -- how do I dock it there? [17:21] Cheery: yes, i know. the answer is no :) [17:21] BA^, no all logging is enabled by default [17:21] Cheery: Oh yeh, in a month or two :-) [17:21] I am trying to set up an IOGear GPSU21 Print Server and need some help [17:21] hey guys, I upgraded to karmic yesterday, sound has gone ever since. I try to access alsamixer it gives me an error. any help ? [17:21] Forgot command how to bring things back to foreground and CLI if sent to the background with & [17:21] mrintegrity: where in the menu does i show up? cant se any icon :S [17:21] kevdog: 'fg' [17:21] mrintegrity, fair enough, in any case, it's run at CLI level, you don't need X, but you're right, it is technically a GUI [17:21] fg [17:21] it's like yearly flood or something that renders this channel useless. [17:21] grawity, how do you list background processess? [17:21] kevdog: 'jobs' [17:21] Cheery, who are you talking to? [17:22] kevdog: 'fg %n' to resume the nth job [17:22] usser: the boot log is empty [17:22] how do i access my mp3 shares in amarok my music is on a xp machine [17:22] kevdog: bg, kill, and disown also accept the % syntax.

And then you suddenly needed to close the terminal. === Sharker is now known as Guest64895 === Guest64895 is now known as Sharker [17:23] kevdog: It's not "ownership" as in Unix permissions; it's just detaching that process from the tty. [17:23] usser, since i'm logged in now under .28 is there a way to see what my vid card is without popping the case? [17:23] Well if I can't get openal and pulseaudio to work, can I get the volume control on the panel to work, and the volume up/down keys on my keyboard? [17:23] kevdog: Otherwise, all jobs are killed when you close the terminal. [17:23] kevdog: deatach a program from the terminal it was launched so you can close that termiinal withoput killing the program [17:24] BA^, lspci | grep VGA [17:24] Hello. My bluetooth keyboard won't automatically pair. It will pair after multiple manual attempts, and even then stop working when it goes into standby mode and gets back. Are there conf files to edit like there used to be in Gutsy for this, for force automatic pairing? [17:24] grawity, So I guess with a little formatting it would be possible to pipe the output of the jobs command into disown to kind of make the process automatic (if you needed to do this) [17:24] Cobalt, look in /etc/bluetooth [17:25] kevdog: Eh, there are better ways to do it automatically. [17:25] usser: VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 PP/PRO TMDS [Xpert 128] [17:25] Cheery: I notice your from Finland, well you could also get help in #ubuntu-fi which will be a lot more quite [17:25] kevdog: nohup program & [17:25] Cobalt, particularly /etc/bluetooth/input.conf [17:25] usser: Yeah, well, there isn't anything specific there. Just generic files, I have a feeling that like the disappeared xorg.conf file, the file I wanna put that stuff in there is just not there anymore. [17:25] usser: Okay, gimme a second. [17:25] BA^: dang thats pretty old [17:25] grawity, I'm open to suggestions [17:25] BA^, wow that is quite old.

[17:26] it's an old computer... which is why i'm trying to run some flavor of linux so it will go faster ;) [17:26] vega-: Use pool.sks-keyservers.net or keyserver.noreply.org [17:26] erUSUL: Ahh -- I see -- other than kill no way to hup a program after this command? [17:26] kevdog: ( program & ) [17:26] kevdog: Exactly like that.

[17:27] erUSUL: Eh. pgpkey.mit.edu does not exist. [17:27] zesss: is this a networked machine, or just another partition on the same pc?

What do I put there, and what is the syntax? (Sorry I got disonnected and may have missed something). [17:27] !envy [17:27] there is no option to mount it [17:27] BA^, its going to be hard to debug, i doubt that many people use your card anymore, i'd say you're hit by some obscure bug in KMS that nobody tested [17:27] networked [17:27] grawity: pgpgkeys ? with s .... === _Sharker is now known as Sharker [17:27] hello i am having problems trying to use sound editing software in 9.10 as it keeps telling me it cant load JACK - can anyone help please [17:28] erUSUL: It's pgp.mit.edu aka cryptonomicon.mit.edu ... Also, it sucks. Better use pool.sks-keyservers.net [17:28] there seems to be something wrong with my 9.04(64) [17:28] Oh blimey. Gnome no longer supports anything but pulseaudio? [17:28] great... [17:28] aren't the Rage 128's still used on server motherboards? [17:28] something is hogging up memory..

[17:28] all of a sudden even terminal takes ages to open and saving a file takes 3s [17:28] erUSUL: (same = "sucks") [17:28] IndyGunFreak: it'd be fine if OpenAL worked with pulseaudio [17:29] xlq - i hav installed all the jack options through synaptics but has made no difference [17:29] anyone who can help me troubleshoot it [17:29] grawity: ok; noted [17:29] Cheery: yes, but I don't get a volume control on the panel, and the volume keys on my keyboard don't work, without pulseaudio. [17:29] xlq: i had a lot of probs w/ pulse in 9.04, but thus far in 9.10, its been good [17:29] twisted-ferrett: did you start jack? [17:29] and so you are saying that even if I try a different flavor of linux i'm gonna have the same problem with my vid card [17:29] xlq: One trick with pulse is there is a pasuspender command so you can temporarily stop pa while you run something that won't work with it [17:29] twisted-ferrett: use qjackctl, it's easier [17:29] also I noticed that while i opened up compiz settings manager and changed a few ... My entire system screwed up and i had to reboot [17:29] and the .31 kernel [17:29] i shall try that thanks [17:29] erUSUL: And by "sucks" I mean that it strips off everything that it doesn't understand -- including new key types and photo IDs. [17:29] penguin42: hmm [17:29] BA^: very possible.. what exactly is the problem you're having? [17:29] erUSUL: At least I have heard it does.

Anyone knows a way to point /home to a partition on the second HD ? Thanks [17:31] VNC [17:31] Wait, dupondje, i take that back. [17:31] tanner: programm ? where to enable it etc ? :p [17:32] usser: No, but I will have a look. It's a Apple aluminium bluetooth keyboard, there used to be howtos for Gutsy and Hardy. But it mostly worked fine out of the box on Hardy on my Eee PC, for some reason, pairing is extremely difficult with Karmic. [17:32] _Narc_: select the manual paritioning thing [17:32] dupondje: I just set my server to auto-login, then i vnc to it using the remote desktop settings in ubuntu/debian [17:32] IndyGunFreak: this is an extra computer that i have win2k installed on but it's too slow so figured I'd try linux. i'm mainly just gonna use this to surf [17:32] pasuspender supertuxkart --> no sound at all [17:32] _Narc_: you can then select whatever disk you want and select a slice on a second disk for home [17:32] Cobalt, you might be missing /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf, im not sure what ubuntu does to hcid.conf now, but its definetely there on my debian squeze system [17:32] tanner: yea, but i'm not logged in, thats the problem :P [17:32] Cobalt, so that guide should still work [17:32] no, this is hopeless.

[17:36] tanner: wrong person [17:36] lol [17:36] Cobalt, They could pair with the computer in any order, you will need to remember which one is the keyboard. As soon as Connecting to device KEYBOARD_ADDR appears you must enter a PIN code into the keyboard. It must consist of numbers not using the numpad, somewhere between 4 and 8 should be fine. Type this number in to the keyboard and press Return.

[18:11] BA^: ok I see wel yes, 9.10 is one many people should be clean installing really, since default Ext4 and Grub 2 for clean installs [18:11] IndyGunFreak, yes [18:11] Hi! I have a problem with volume control. Sound mutes at 15% [18:11] IndyGunFreak, it won't even launch for me [18:11] techqbert: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#Upgrading%20Using%20the%20Alternate%20CD/DVD [18:11] IndyGunFreak, i have got the link which you gave me.. [18:11] om26er1: Grub1 distro? [18:11] what are the packages that get installed with ubuntu-restricted-extras [18:11] netecho: do you have java installed? [18:11] IndyGunFreak, yep [18:11] ill install, hopefully that works, but many people say that there was a regression of NM [18:11] sebsebseb: karmic use grub 2 other distros don't [18:12] I want to change my login-screen, now it's KDe-themed and I don't know why or how to change it :D [18:12] netecho: are you getting that link box w/ a ton of errors in it when it launches, and it says copy or cancel?

[18:12] sebsebseb: fedora, jaunty, [18:12] Sound mutes below 15% volume. Any Ideas?

However really it's better to just clean install 9.10 for the default Ext4 and Grub 2 [18:13] netecho: if you have no menu entry, no icon, etc.. then its probably not installed [18:13] Anyone know how to fix the speed for firefox? its VERY SLOW [18:13] thanks so much shankhs [18:13] IndyGunFreak, "Something went wrong" it says maybe I'm using the wrong java but it says Java 1.6 is installed [18:13] where does empathy save its stuff (logs, settings, ...)

I ust bought netgear stora and was hoping to find a way to install ubuntu server. enyone now how to do that? [18:14] om26er1: I haven't actsaully clean installed 9.10 with the final yet, after testing since alpha 4, since I been away for a week. Also I am probably keeping the other computer on 9.04, and then upgrading to 10.04 when it's time through 9.04. [18:14] •jMyles• No Sound? [18:14] techqbert: I know a faster one as they are very slow if you are not using torrent [18:14] netecho: hmm, are you using 64bit? [18:14] IndyGunFreak, nope [18:14] Google Chrome is very better than FX [18:14] om26er1: Hm...I get a long delay after i type in the address before the site opens [18:14] Yaya: you could try swiftfox [18:15] DeathCrawler: thats a debatable topic [18:15] No Sound, Am I Correct? [18:15] shankhs: Virginia Commonwealth University [18:15] DeathCrawler: ;) [18:15] yeah which one do you recommend [18:15] Yaya: if you want to try chromium type this in a terminal [18:15] om26er1: through 9.10 above [18:15] sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chromium-daily && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install chromium-browser [18:15] IndyGunFreak, I also tried re-installing frostwire [18:15] iWolf: That's correct. No sound. I have a Sound Blaster Live, but Pulseaudio does not seem to recognize it since upgrading to Karmic. [18:15] does anyone know of a special group for drupal users? [18:15] Hi All, is there away to browse internet while im installing using the alternative install cd? i want to look at help file while im installing [18:15] netecho: i dunno, i installed the sunjava-6 packages in the repositories, then ran into the other error problem, but got that resolved [18:15] : Please open a terminal [18:15] you're having a different problem than i had [18:15] IndyGunFreak, what java package did you install that worked? [18:16] sebsebseb: so will install lucid as a clean install [18:16] iWolf, ok and then what? [18:16] netecho: its in the repositories... sun-java6, i think is what its called [18:16] my sound finally works with pulseaudio thru my usb [18:16] om26er1: Who? [18:16] Yaya: download bleachbit and do a vacuum while firefox is closed. you don't have to run anything else [18:16] IndyGunFreak, I'll try reinstalling it [18:16] that could help a lot [18:16] techqbert: you can try http://profile.iiita.ac.in/IIT2006101/Documents/ubuntu-9.10-alternate-i386.iso this one also [18:16] sebsebseb: you [18:16] Is the ubuntu keyserver down?

[18:16] thanks shankhs [18:17] shankhs: thanks, just wanted to make sure it's not just me [18:17] is there any reason to have epiphony AND firefox installed? [18:17] shankhs: Google Chrome, even in testing, is faster and consumes less ram than Firefox [18:17] IndyGunFreak, sun-java6 not found [18:17] om26er1: since this time round I am going to test lucid in vm rather than a psyical install on this computer, with Karmic as host, unless I end up putting some other distro on [18:17] iWolf: done. [18:17] Now please reboot [18:17] yos: sudo apt-get install furiusisomount [18:17] i don't understand how ports are used in amule, it's set to use 4662, but when i check with "netstat -tupa", i can see that it's using many ports not in the config, why ? [18:17] If there is still no sound [18:17] Please come back [18:17] netecho: .. are you using 9.10? [18:17] yos: loop-mount it [18:17] iWolf: thank you, be right back.

[18:18] I heard windows 8 will contain 128 bit system support. [18:18] updated from jaunty to karmic yesterday. Now it freeze to a black screen when I log out. [18:18] maxagaz: If, for example, I connect to your aMule, then the port at your side will be 4662, but the port at my side will be a randomly chosen number. [18:18] if so, where can i download lucid lynx? [18:18] shankhs: Uses x64? === Sharker is now known as Guest24606 === Guest24606 is now known as Sharker [18:18] PingFloyd: Which graphics card?

[18:19] i have a 300kbps network. I use NAT to share a connection with my notebook. But the tests on the Notebook(it uses the connection from my room's machine, shared by nat) have shown that I have only 113kbps, while in the server(machine on my room) i have 300kbps. How can I share the whole network speed ? The server is actually doing nothing than giving connection to my notebook, so there is no point for not giving the notebook the whole brandwith. [18:19] any pic viewer supporting animated gifs? [18:19] iWolf: I am back no sound. [18:19] DeathCrawler: what about GChrome? [18:19] Grub2? [18:19] cowgarden: Easiest thing is just to use firefox [18:20] sebsebseb: I happned to set it to kdm some time ago and I want to change, have no idea how :3 [18:20] sebsebseb: It's KDE-themed [18:20] IndyGunFreak, still nada [18:20] jMyles: did you do a clean install [18:20] m0ar: oh I thought you were going to complain that the new GDM can't be themed like the old one or something like that [18:20] sebsebseb: Haha, no [18:20] penguin42, does not support switching to the next file in the folder [18:20] Upon upgrading to Karmic, I also still have the old splash screen during boot, although my laptop has the new one. Is this is a 64-bit vs. 32-bit issue? [18:20] jMyles: There was a kernel mismatch i believe [18:20] om26er1: no, I upgraded. [18:20] * om26er1 prefers people to do a fresh install to avoid many many problems [18:20] m0ar: well KDM is better than GDM 2 it seems [18:20] updated from jaunty to karmic yesterday. Now it freezes to a black screen when I log out. Anybody know how to fix? [18:20] shankhs, less than 100mb, depending of tabs [18:20] iWolf: How can I confirm a kernel mismatch? Will this also explain the old splash screen? [18:21] :( was hoping 9.10 would fix all problems from 9.04 but I will have to go back to 8.10.....hp laptop still wont come back from suspend mode and wireless locks up when connecting and have to reboot. guess 9.10 is even more broken then 9.04 :( [18:21] m0ar: KDM used to suck, and Ubuntu's GDM was :) ,but now they put in the upstream Gnome one, and it sucks realy since can't be themed like the old one [18:21] Well, alot of people got this [18:21] netecho: can't really explain that, because after i got past the configuration error everyone else was having(which sounds different from your problem), its worked perfect [18:21] I filled out 12 bug reports about this [18:21] you pretty much cant modify an ubuntu system and ever upgrade anyhting right? it seems upgrades always undo changes i've made. [18:21] kermit: yep [18:21] jMyles: Do you have grub? [18:21] Shikaku: i'm about to do it, BTW, do you know if there a debian version of CCleaner? [18:21] Or grub2? [18:21] m0ar: if you want GDM instead though that's easy enough [18:21] iWolf: How can I tell? It looks like the same old grub. [18:21] Yaya: that IS the debian version of ccleaner [18:21] How can I get my Mac keyboard numpad working? [18:21] Yaya: Linux systems don't collect much crap... CCleaner won't have anything to do. [18:21] so anybody knows? [18:21] sebsebseb: Or help theming kdm :) [18:22] DeathCrawler: do one test please open 100 youtube videos in ff and google chrome and then compare RAM consumption [18:22] Try submitting a bug report [18:22] Yaya: /tmp - cleaned on boot. /etc - handled by package manager.

[18:22] m0ar: I am glad it has a nice bubble theme though by default in Ubuntu/Kubuntu [18:22] iWolf: then its Grub1 [18:22] sebsebseb: Okay, thanks anyway [18:22] Alright [18:22] m0ar: I can help you get GDM back, but [18:22] IndyGunFreak, it looks like it might be because ubuntu is using openjdk by default and not sun jre [18:22] m0ar: you can only change icons and colours with it as far as I know [18:22] Hey there, I'm trying to google this, but I can't find any references to it. Recently I started experiencing that when I press ALT-F2 (Run Application) the dialog opens underneath other windows. Usually it opens on top with focus immediately given to this dialog.

Looks awful at my dualacreensetup, and the font/style overall is pukeable :D [18:23] jMyles: sudo update-grub [18:23] does anyone know why mountmanager is in my installed applications list twice? [18:23] m0ar: there's another log in screen program that I haven't tried yet, that can get quite a few differnet pictures for, and it picking a random image [18:23] netecho: is that the one that says copy/paste?

[18:23] what are the main targets of lucid lynx [18:23] jMyles: Yes [18:24] Sorry, i meant development version :) [18:24] cowgarden: i'm gone now, so I suggest to start reading the debian docs and the man page of apt_preferences [18:24] m0ar: there's probably a better way to do this, but if you want GDM. sudo apt-get remove or purge gdm then sudo apt-get install gdm and it will ask which one to use [18:24] are all ubuntu releases named after animals? [18:24] will there ever be a better fglrx driver for ati 200m ? [18:24] MrBoss: try playonlinux?

I messed up and the new alsa was trying to run on the old kernal [18:44] m0ar: it's only meant to switch users, not show Pidgin/Empaphy status as well, shut down and log out are also meant to be in the system menu still, and they will be probably if you remove the applet from the panel [18:44] joaopinto: thank you [18:44] s/upgrade/reinstall/ [18:44] I use a mobile wireless connection.

How can I solve this? [18:46] meanburrito920_, sudo operations don't usually remove users data, unless you use an explicit command for that :) [18:46] cygnus_: it means wubi was installed before and then not removed and then the partiton in which it was installe is not there [18:46] joaopinto: sometimes you actually want to remove the dot-files automatically [18:46] i never installed it [18:46] tried?

[20:01] cecilia: ls -ld /usr/share/doc/landscape-common/changelog.Debian.gz and paste the output here [20:01] sebsebseb: then y so many? [20:01] Hey, I need to know what package should I file a bug report for if the screen brightness manager is flipping out. Anyone know? [20:01] When I ask the Ubuntu installer to encrypt my home directory, will it encrypt and or mount /tmp and /var/tmp as tmpfs? [20:01] ok [20:01] cheater99: probably a server it was accessig during the update took a restroom break or something.. [20:01] Well, whatever. I can't get a better textmode working. [20:01] aaron_: not sure you can probably find out in #ubuntu-ops though [20:01] i'm reinstalling ubuntu and this time want to put the /home folder on a separate partition [20:01] !F-spot [20:01] Sorry, I don't know anything about F-spot [20:01] igoogg: yeah, there isn't any really. they just kind of threw it in. in System/Administration/Language Support you can install it, then you set it up with System/Preferences/Ibus Preferences and reboot. It works basically like scim, although I haven't found an option to set it globally. You need to enable it for each app with ctrl+space [20:01] aaron_: Why there are a few flood bots [20:01] IndyGunFreak, no, it was errors that happened while the packages were being installed. [20:02] i have a simple but dumb question ! [20:02] so is there a simple answer to how I change the default entry, so as usual in Linux, do I have to read pages of extremely verbose information just to get a simple answer? [20:02] weegi: then ask later in the day, different users, different brains :D [20:02] aaron_: altough I guess they go down sometimes or something [20:02] some packages tried overwriting files that were assigned to other packages. [20:02] is there any value in upgrading my Nvidia driver from 173 to 190.42?

[20:02] trism: thanks, i will try it. ^^ [20:02] MrGil: no [20:02] i have an ati x200m mobility chip as graphic card on my laptop, is it the open source driver, or is it FGLRX [20:02] does anyone have an MSI Wind?

[20:03] ok [20:03] cecilia: and basically repeat until you get a non permission denied error [20:03] ActionParsnip, i don't know how to force install the deb file, or how to file a bug.

You can then use: sudo dpkg -i [20:04] JosephMarc: yes, i know. but meybe somebody has tried them out before me [20:04] i have an ati x200m mobility chip as graphic card on my laptop, is it the open source driver, or is it FGLRX that i have to use ?

[20:07] BigDaddy: Setting a root password is The Big No Of Ubuntu! [20:07] I installed xubuntu into a USB pendrive and created two partitions.

[20:08] colorlessprism: on perivous ubuntu live version, yes! [20:08] ActionParsnip, yeah i did that to acrtivate my wireless, but my graphic driver aint there... since 8.10.... [20:08] jrib: well I thought it was a random passwd assigned there no way to know it. if you need a root passwd you need to change it... [20:08] KenBW2 : yeah that won't be fixed by drivers [20:08] are you using 9.10? [20:08] SAngeli: why did you put /boot on a separate partition?

[20:08] purple_processor: kindo of, but the point is you do not need a root password [20:08] do you have a built in webcam? [20:08] cecilia: what happened before this? this almost sounds like filesystem corruption [20:08] Berzerker: some people do that [20:08] I see no point [20:08] Berzerker, because I always do so. Is it wrong? [20:08] colorlessprism: yes... [20:08] SAngeli: follow this guide: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/xubuntu-9-04-flash-drive-install-from-cd/ [20:08] It makes more sense if you have /home on a different partition [20:08] Berzerker: me either.. but some people do. [20:08] I need a sound support channel for ubuntu, anyone? [20:09] try disabling it [20:09] and with ls -ld it says it cannot access the file or directory: no such file found [20:09] SAngeli: try it again without /boot on a separate partition [20:09] for me it is Fn+F6 [20:09] colorlessprism: insert the usb now? [20:09] yes [20:09] how do I get in grub2? Is it still the "Esc" key? I have a problem on my Karmic Xorg, and grub boots so fast that I can't edit it [20:09] before what? me removing python-support? [20:09] Hi all. I cannot have more than one user logged since I upgraded to Karmic. It may come from fglrx driver but I am not sure. Anyone has the same problem or a fix for this? [20:09] colorlessprism: nothing [20:09] still nothing comes up... [20:09] im going to pm you [20:09] ActionParsnip, yeah i did that to acrtivate my wireless, but my graphic driver aint there... since 8.10....

[20:10] Berzerker, ah, I searched for the entire day this doc. [20:10] I renamed .gconfig to fix: On upgrade to 9.10 i386, I cannot get to the login screen. I get to the splash screen with the with line, it goes to black and then loops, but it does the same thing. Any other ideas? Thanks! [20:10] Berzerker: what is your live cd?

[20:12] Berzerker: hag on just a sec [20:12] but i heard it's not polite to private message with somenoe here [20:12] Berzerker: do you have wired access on the machine.. or just wireless" [20:12] BigDaddy: you can become root without setting a specific root password by doing 'sudo su' [20:12] the wired works also [20:12] cowbud is helping me [20:12] cecilia: it isn't a priv message it is a cowbud: hey dude' [20:13] I need a sound support channel for ubuntu, anyone? [20:13] Berzerker, now that i have two partitions what do i have to do first? Remove both partitions and create only 1 and format it as ext4?

Basically if you do that my chat client highlights the message for me [20:13] some knows the name of person who was responsible for the userfriendly enhancements in 9.04 and 9.10? [20:13] JosephMarc: you can just ask here [20:13] ok, requesting [20:13] is there a way to mirror the ubuntu repos other than straight downloading? I'd like to get the files for a mirror via bittorrent if possible. [20:13] ok on sudo su [20:13] SAngeli: yup [20:13] I there anyway to upgrade to ubuntu 9.10 karmic from ubuntu 9.04 jaunty without losing files and so on? [20:13] cecilia: yes I saw that a little while ago, to begin with though, it looked like your issue and details were just being said randomly to the whole channel. I guess since it's busy. [20:13] IndyGunFreak: thanks. [20:13] jlmp yes i think so. [20:13] yes [20:14] how? [20:14] Berzerker, In order to save time as it took me a long time to install xubuntu, can I try to install this tool into the /boot partion i just installed and perhaps save my work rather than start from scratch? [20:14] jlmp you won't loose any personal files, but if you want to keep the packages and your system in tack you can to that also [20:14] j1mp492, you don't loose data files with the regular upgrade process [20:14] cecilia: so once you do 'sudo touch /forcefsck' and you reboot the system will repair itself and you should be back in good order (assuming the corruption isn't too bad..) [20:14] cecilia: When asking a question it's good to do it with some details if you can provide them, all in one line or message [20:14] j1mp492: Run sudo update-manager -d. That ought to do the trick. [20:14] sheroux: could always try it: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx [20:14] jlmp: I was offered the upgrade through update manager - did it online and didn't lose athing [20:14] but that was the first thing i did [20:14] I have a problem with my 5.1 surround system, it isn't working although i edited pulseaudio config file to support 6 channels, i suspect the mic line as input option is missing, can anyone help?

[20:15] then i started to paste but the messages were spread [20:15] ok.. [20:15] cecilia: yeah they are two different forms of irc etiquette, one is not to paste too much in the channel the other is to let the people know that are helping you that you are chatting with them specifically [20:15] ArmyMan007: open a terminal, unplug the device, wait 10 seconds, plug it back in, wait 10 seconds then paste the command into terminal and press enter [20:15] ActionParsnip- ill try that ty [20:15] need coffee [20:15] sheroux: can always uninstall it if its no good [20:16] any chance what this means? kernel: [17135.626849] audacious2[18782]: segfault at c ip 056185a6 sp b088b7f8 error 4 in libc-2.10.1.so[55ac000+13e000] [20:16] alright [20:16] i get a white screen instead of a login screen [20:16] !ask [20:16] 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).

Google for how [21:01] hiya [21:01] benc: Sounds like quite a lot of people got issues when they upgraded 9.04 to 9.10. Also to make sure you get Grub2 without any problems and Ext4, it's a good idea to clean install 9.10 [21:01] Does this mean that a full install will not work? [21:01] how do y ou get sound to work on ubuntu? [21:01] Psinetic: that includes -for instance- a terminal in /path/to/your/cd [21:01] SAngeli: Can you try the guide I gave you to be sure that GRUB is installed ( and possibly see any error messages from grub-install like possibly your embedded area being too small ) ? [21:01] SpiceMan, yeah if i knew what was accessing it that'd be easy [21:01] After restart of Ubuntu i get the GRUB2 screen. Why? What can i do to fix it? [21:02] Jordan_U_, I am trying to think i read about an article where I can make the USB bootable only and then install on it xubuntu but need to remember where I read abou it. What do you think? [21:02] sebsebseb: sounds like I shouldn't do it :) [21:02] hey, I downloaded a source code with "apt-get source", how can I build a .deb if I change it? [21:02] benc: upgrading screwed up my resolution ;_; [21:02] DocMAX: and what seems to be the problem? just choose the os you want to boot and thats it [21:02] Jordan_U_, I already tried and it runs fine. I am able to boot from the USB pen drive. I also had to run startx [21:02] benc: I need to clean install the final still, but I been testing since alpha 4, and from what I have seen of it, I am not that impressed.

I don't care about os features [21:03] SAngeli: So what is your current problem? [21:03] Jordan_U_, but I wish to install xubuntu creating few partitions and customizing it, rather than all the time see this pen drive as a live CD [21:03] benc: well there aren't really any OS features in 9.04 that are properly worth the upgrade from what I have seen [21:03] one more question... how much room does 9.04 need and how much for the swap file? [21:03] DocMAX: yes and u have the option to choose an OS right? [21:03] Does anyone know an apt-get remove commandthat will take all games off ubunutu? [21:03] Jordan_U_, my problerm is I do not want to have a clone of a LIVD CD-ROM [21:03] benc: 9.04 I meant to put 9.10 [21:03] !it [21:03] Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese.

[21:04] Jordan_U_, I would rather use the CD-ROM then. I wish to install xubuntu into the USB Pen drive as if it would be a HD [21:04] Revo, I you just have to remove them one by one [21:04] server irc.myzurna.com [21:04] Berzerker: no.. [21:04] oh ok [21:04] Revo, sudo apt-get remove gnome-games [21:04] Jordan_U_, following the regular installation procedure [21:04] benc: new icon theme, the new GDM (Gnome Dispaly Manager) log in screen, that can't be themed like the old one, much faster boot up and shut down, the software centre, and that's about it really [21:04] on 8.10 I could control the internal volume on the laptop with the buttons on the side and the lineout I could control with the gnome-volume-?manager?.

Any suggestions? I've tried dexconf and dpkg-reconfigure xserver.xorg. [21:05] hey guys, is it just me or Empathy is full of bugs? [21:05] SAngeli: Let me be clear, I never suggested to use the "Live USB installer", I am only tallking about doing a normal install, please stick to that context [21:05] Psinetic: then nothing is accessing it and the problem is something else [21:05] is there a grub-install in rescue console??? [21:05] benc: yes so ppa's or backports for some stuff maybe, Deb's for Ubuntu from trusted sources, or compileing from source [21:05] ubuntu__:you shouldnt need one, try display settings o system > preferences [21:05] !backports | benc [21:06] benc: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports.

[21:06] SAngeli: After you do a normal install, if you are getting a "no OS" error follow this guide to try installing grub manully: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide [21:06] Jordan_U_, I am sticking to the context. The userguide or what you provided on the web has this title: "Create a Ubuntu 9.10 Live USB Persistent Flash Drive from the running Live CD" [21:06] BA^: How much RAM?

I am having "Erro no barramento" [21:07] Prage: Yes I did and it works great! [21:07] BA^: SWAP isn't really needed as such it seems, unless going to hibernate or something, but 2GB SWAP space if you want [21:07] b0w: that gives me only 640x480 and 800x600 options, but I want 1280x1024 which should be supported by my monitor and graphics controller. I know that 1024x768 should work because I've used it before. [21:07] Jordan_U_, on top of what I have already installed? Then, will it boot into xubuntu or do I have to type some special commands that you knwo? [21:07] Hald: seriously?

There seems to be a major regression in how configurable the new login screen is in karmic :( [21:38] this time around, upgrades seem to have broke a lot of crap [21:38] BoredKender, I want the old mixer back.. and no alsamixer isnt an option [21:38] BoredKender: ditching pulseaudio [21:38] dmg, oh, no lol. that is for people with pulse crackling noises [21:38] IndyGunFreak: I've even tried the Live CD for Karmic. I get the same thing. [21:38] Daimonic: have fun :) [21:38] Flare183: because the driver has to be installed, and then the PC restarted, which is useless for the live CD [21:38] The real problem is that I mostly don't use pulseaudio, but I've build AlienArena and it hangs on startup because it's looking for pulse audio. [21:39] duffydack, not sure what one can do about the mixer unfortunately... [21:39] what's the best way to go about making all windows transparent by default? I've been reading a lot of stuff on compiz [21:39] docmax: "inotifywatch -r /" [21:39] So I guess writing a custom ~/.asoundrc that ignores pulse as an output option might work too. [21:39] dmg, no idea on that one. sorry bud :( [21:39] therealgadget on my laptop its nvidia and this is the machine I am having a problem with [21:40] duffydack, let me know if it soles it for you so i know for sure that it is working lol [21:40] IndyGunFreak: I can't do that. It would take to long for me to resetup. [21:40] anyone else's cairo-dock get thrashed (opens in maintenance mode only) after upgrading to Karmic? [21:40] therealGadget300, "Erro de Barramento". It is probably in portuguese. I would translate to "bus error" [21:40] Jordan_U: geez I got myself into a mess. In order to mount my filesystem I need to type a mount command that is not installed [21:40] duffydack, does it* [21:40] i have a usb key i have kept my bookmarks and all, but it seems that the FS have been corrupted... is there anyway of retrieving whats on it ? [21:40] BoredKender, ive got that sorted with a little config editing, which should never have been needed... empathy is a step back, new volume control is step back, UNR no desktop switcher is step back [21:40] Flare183: ...well i'm not sure what to tell you then... [21:40] BoredKender, I will. [21:40] it doesn't take as long as you think [21:40] duffydack, i was kinda looking forward to toying with empathy, but it doesnt hold a candle to pidgin unfortunately [21:41] BoredKender, tho I think its a little more serious than that for my setup.. I`m ignoring 9.10 for now because of sound [21:41] duffydack, and i agree on the steps back lol [21:41] legendario: try reinstalling xulrunner [21:41] Hey people, using the 9.10 live cd right now, I just getting this error when partitioning however; "Parted can't resize partitions managed by Windows Dynamic Disk" [21:41] therealgadget: found the driver. installing now. I think that will do it. Thanks! [21:41] duffydack, the other thing i did that MAY have done it was a force-upgrade on my alsa driver [21:41] is there a work around for this? [21:41] what's the best way to go about making all windows transparent by default? I've been reading a lot of stuff on compiz [21:41] nodeps: np [21:41] BoredKender, oh and the slow choppy firefox scrolling while viewing youtube vids [21:41] boredkender: worked like a charm.

Grazie!

I login but how i load back my ubuntu screen????? [21:42] therealgadget: are you familiar with the issue that people are having with mounting fat usb external drives? I didn't have this issue in 9.04. Do you know if there is a patch? I try to connect an external WD drive formatted as either FAT or HFS and it does not mount but the system sees it as an external scsi device on sdc1 [21:43] therealGadget300, i will try. just a second...

Samba Sharing...) so i can movefiles between a public folder on my home and a public folder on a windows laptop thats on the same network [21:46] therealGadget300, it's gonna take a while on my connection [21:46] BoredKender, there is a sound location there IIRC [21:46] Jester05: Gparted - select the partition - select Label - change it - hit apply in the main window [21:46] Mike_lifeguard: Hello?

[21:50] Mike_lifeguard something about script [21:51] docmax: It's going to take a long time to setup watches for all files, it might not even be possible ( or maybe you just need to exclude things like /proc ) [21:51] Mike_lifeguard: it's possible the server MAY have restarted on another terminal, I often get restarts on 8 or 9 [21:51] Ublondie: You can use Ubuntu software manager instead. Search NVIDIA [21:51] ubuntu: your X is probably running, you just need to hit CTRL+ALT+F7 to get to it [21:51] Thread added in hardware/laptops [21:51] hypn0: That's what I'm trying to fix.

[21:54] equivoc: try changing the dns servers in /etc/resolv.conf [21:54] Jordan_U, just found "iotop" [21:54] I'm aware about the bug reported on launchpad. however, I would like to know some alternative solution regarding this matter [21:54] Mike_lifeguard restart: unknown instance [21:55] Viking667, therealGadget300: http://pastie.org/679306 [21:55] Manifest: you're done, should have updated graphics drivers etc [21:55] hmm, sounds fun [21:55] docmax: That's why I suggested excluding /proc, but inotifywatch is probably just not the right tool for this job [21:55] ubuntu: let me read manpages a minute... [21:55] Mike_lifeguard: And that fixed what? All problems still here.... [21:55] does anyone know a good start for hosting on ubuntu? [21:55] Manifest: I guess it didn't fix anything, it was only a suggestion [21:55] lobak: I've had similar problems ...it has been *very* temperamental, but I do eventually get it to work. Mind you, I don't know how. I unplug and plug back in.... ? [21:55] oh... my. [21:56] Can anyone help me? When I open firefox and try to move a window, my computer freezes, and also, there is a black border around all open windows. [21:56] Viking667: was that for my paste? [21:56] yuh. [21:56] I'll bet you're on dhcp to your router. Am I right? [21:56] I don't have video, just audio when using kaffeine to watch dvb from a dvb-ttpci source, and me-tv and totem don't work, either. I don't think any codecs are missing. Does someone have additional ideas? [21:56] like the best web hosting application? for instance? [21:56] Viking667: aye [21:56] Ublondie, which kernel? is it 2.6.31-14 ? [21:56] ubuntu: Try 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart' instead ... that's the old way, but it should still work [21:56] equivoc: Linux is getting DNS from router which is slower. Try getting the IPs from the router and paste them in resolv.conf [21:57] equivoc: hm. Then I'd be checking what's in your router regarding DNS settings. [21:57] Hey, can someone help me? I put in a Live CD of 9.10 and I can load into the live cd desktop but then it flashes and goes back to the splash screen and keeps cycling automatically. [21:57] ... like therealGadget300 just said,. [21:57] Viking667: it was everything okay, until the upgrade [21:57] yesterday [21:57] ubuntu: It will probably complain about you using the init.d script instead of the new method, but we don't care about that -- look for a line that says whether it restarted it properly or not [21:57] Imac: verify your iso image and burn again if corrupted [21:57] I have continual problems with mounting external hard drive - WD 160GB ...drive clicks on and off and will not be mounted. Was having same problem in 9.04. Have tried chkdsk -f on Winxp. No error messages come up. [21:57] BoredKender, think I tried it.. cant remember how it went.. but that was before I had to hack the analog-output conf [21:58] Mike_lifeguard since the script u are attempting to invoke has been converted to an upstart jobm you may also use the restart (8) utility, e.g restart gdm gdm start/running process 2019 [21:58] BoredKender, or rather the analog-mono-output.conf as I need master mono output for my subwoofer in my laptop..other outputs ignore it [21:58] therealGadget300:I burned it onto two separate things (one DVD, one CD). And I tried the DVD in Parallels and it was fine [21:58] lobak: will have to check ...have just installed new 10.04 ? ...yes, same kernel [21:58] could someone recommend a good web hosting software for hosting sql on ubuntu? [21:58] BoredKender, and without hackin the conf, changing volume changes pcm, master mono, headphone and master all same time. [21:58] ubuntu: OK, but does it tell you whether it succeeded or failed? (maybe you can just pastebin the whole thing for me?) [21:58] BoredKender, which is why to me sound is just a cluster.... [21:59] Ublondie: ... Huh? 10.04 of what? [21:59] Mike_lifeguard i can't its on my other computer [21:59] Viking667: sorry ...it's early and have just woken up ....9.10 of course! :/ [21:59] duffydack, gotcha lol [21:59] and it can't go internet bc i'm not on the gui [21:59] duffydack, might wanna just call it a wash and reinstall those parts lol [21:59] Mike_lifeguard, I figured out the problem w/ trying to rename the label of my partition.. it was NTFS and I hadn't installed the ntfs tools yet.. its a new install of 9.10 lol [21:59] ubuntu: fair enough. But do you see that it did/didn't restart gdm? [21:59] ubuntu: actually, you don't _neeed_ the gui to bring network up [22:00] maybe boot to a live environment and copy the stock files over [22:00] it looks kind of similar to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1303670 but over there it looks like the people were able to install [22:00] does anybody know how to get hdaps working on karmic?

I had recently installed on my laptop too and think I confused what I've done on the two lol [22:01] Ublondie, I have to use kernel 2.6.28-16 to make me able to use e220 on karmic..seems like plug n unplug is a vague effort [22:01] ubuntu: k, so try the restart command it gave you instead. That is the new version of the command [22:01] Imac: Ive never used it without gui so I'm not sure [22:01] BoredKender, reinstall? this is a fresh install [22:01] Jester05: I do that all the time to (and compounded by me forgetting whether I'm sshed into my server or not) [22:01] +spelling [22:01] therealGadget300: Ok, thanks anyway [22:01] i try to install flash player but on the terminal they said the .deb packet isnt not install [22:01] hi, now that I have given up on my upgraded 9.04 and want to start to install 9.10, I get an error when creating the partition: "The ext4 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI3 (sda) failed [22:01] sorry for my english..

[22:02] duffydack, i had to do that yesterday after screwing up some conf's trying to fix my sound lol [22:02] ubuntu: No, that's the command you just did that gave you the error-ish message -- it gave you a command something like "restart gdm" (I forget exactly what it is) -- that command is the new way to restart gdm, so try that. === _khracix is now known as aa0Khracix [22:02] Guest37955: Go to System > Administration > Disks and check the smart data, your drive may be going bad [22:02] Can anyone look at this for me?

[22:06] Ublondie, yup..anyway, thanks for the sharing, will try your tricks === Mike||gone is now known as Mike_lifeguard [22:06] well there are two ways.. one you just connect to an active running log in.. u essentially take control of the logged in user.. another allows you to literally log in remotely.. everything functions as if you were sitting directly infront of that machine and log in.. even does a great job if you log into a machine that has a single monitor from a machine that has two monitors, assuming the dual monitor machine's X is configured for it.. [22:06] hi there please is there some room for ubuntu 9.10 [22:06] ubuntu: sudo restart gdm [22:06] equivoc: I'm not sure, that's the problem. But there is actually a place to put it. [22:06] klabezo: This is it [22:06] I mean, I've tried 3 ways already to set the scaling_governor at bootup, this sucks [22:06] but its incredibly easy.. i just dont know that 9.10 allows it.. login menu has changed and i dont see it.. not to say its not an option [22:06] Jordan_U, that's true, I already asked but no answer : How to remove the rectangles on the topleft which shows the name of the screen ("llyama 17'" on my external screen, "laptop screen" on my computer) [22:07] henkpoley: are you using GNOME? [22:07] ubuntu: Doing that should not only restart it, but also move you from the terminal to the X server (if it doesn't, do CTRL+ALT+F7 to get there) [22:07] Mike_lifeguard restart: Unknown instance: [22:07] Viking667: thanks [22:07] ah, fun === debfx_ is now known as debfx [22:07] ubuntu is asking me if i want to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10. should i do it or is it risky? (it's just a personal desktop) [22:07] rom: Just close the display preferences window [22:07] jrib: XFCE, thought that may use some gnome- and kde-isms [22:07] I installed virtualbox in ubuntu. I starts an xp install. but it cant start it with the network adapter attached to the host interface. any experience with that? [22:07] Jordan_U, it doesn't remove this rectangle [22:07] ubuntu: meh, just reboot it. ordinarily restarting only gdm is less trouble than rebooting, but clearly that's not true in this case. sudo reboot [22:07] ok jordan i want to know if i update my 9.04 to 9.10 my applications will not be work ? [22:07] is Java supposed to work out-of-the-box? I'm getting errors in Faceboook [22:07] henkpoley: well on gnome, there is a daemon that sets scaling governor. Check for it [22:07] When trying to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 through update manager I get the wonderfully exacting error: Authentication failed There may be a problem with the network or with the server. Advice? [22:07] lobak: no probs ...just thought I'd share my own experience with it. You can always see if anyone else can help further? [22:08] jrib: daemons have processes (in top/ps) isn't it ? [22:08] Mike_lifeguard, the feature I was talking about is part of the older login manager... I'm not sure if the new manager used in 9.10 will allow such a thing .. I will have to investigate. If it doesnt I will be setting up an SSH [22:08] Would anyone happen to know a fix for the problem where flash doesn't accept input on x64? [22:08] <{aaron}> hi guys, what's the safe way to enable 'ufw' if i'm logged in remotely via ssh? after setting some options 'ufw show' shows nothing...so I assume I need the firewall running in order to add rules?? [22:08] ah yes there was a prefrences window open :( [22:08] thank you [22:08] infidx: It is up to you. There are some small issues with Karmic (see the release notes) and upgrading is always inherently dangerous to some extent. But I did it and nothing exploded yet [22:08] Mike_lifeguard i was trying to make dual screen montior settings [22:08] <{aaron}> in CentOS i just did that in the iptables config, i would be glad to if i knew where that was on ubuntu [22:09] henkpoley: yes. iirc there's also something in /etc/init.d that sets the scaling governor. (I had to deal with what you are dealing with a couple of years ago so I don't remember the details) [22:09] jrib: I do have an '/usr/lib/hal/hald-addon-cpufreq' running [22:09] Mike_lifeguard, and then i press ctrl alt bk space [22:09] anyone here versed in Java? I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 here. I get this error when I try to upload photos to Facebook (it launches a Java app): http://pastebin.com/m77a93db9 -- I installed sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin, then tried thsi under both Chromium-browser and firefox-3.5 [22:09] is there a 686 version of ubuntu? [22:09] i686 [22:09] mom: yah, the ia32 version [22:09] is there in one can help me ? [22:09] can anyone tell me how to change the path where the default bookmarks point to? i.e. Downloads, Pictures, Music etc [22:09] mom: 386, rather [22:09] how do you guys recommend that i mirror disks in Ubuntu, two exact harddrives ? [22:09] mom: actually, that's i586, sorta. [22:09] rom: Try "killall gnome-display-properties" [22:09] infidx: If you do, and you have a separate /home partition, I *highly* recommend downloading the ISO using a torrent and reinstalling rather than upgrading (there is an easy way to re-install your custom packages en-masse, btw) [22:10] lol. My upgrade happened smoothly, thanks. [22:10] 386 is optimized for 686? [22:10] <{aaron}> Roey: do you have all the right jars on your classpath? (e.g. -classpath "...:...:.." [22:10] hell, no. [22:10] infidx: Second-best is to download the alternate ISO from a torrent and upgrade using that (say 'no' so you don't use network at all, you can do that later when the servers are less overloaded) [22:10] ubuntu: Really, you should just reboot, clearly something is gone wrong here. [22:10] {aaron}: lemme check. [22:10] would you guys rather get ubuntu 8 or 9? [22:10] Mike_lifeguard i did reboot [22:10] <{aaron}> Roey: oh, nvm, i see you mean this was an applet [22:10] infidx: If you decide to do it and you want help, feel free to ask me [22:10] melat0nin: something like ~/.config/xdg-user-dirs (from memory so likely different) [22:11] ubuntu: ok, so I guess your X server still isn't working? [22:11] :( no one help me [22:11] ah [22:11] {aaron}: yes [22:11] Mike_lifeguard, yea it still not working [22:11] <{aaron}> Roey: have you tried pulling the URL it's trying to access directly? it's weird..maybe a facebook bug? [22:11] klabezo: Please state what the problem is "no one help me" doesn't let me know what your problem is so I can decide whether I can help you or not [22:11] klabezo: Specify your question [22:11] Hello can some\ help me fix limewire is not responding??? [22:11] what's likely to break in an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10? [22:11] how do i update from RC to Final? [22:11] why when i tape the name of something to install they said impossible to find the packet "...."??? [22:11] ubuntu: So, you get a terminal login? [22:11] jrib: got it - ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs. Thanks! Is it enough to change the contents of that file, then log out and in again? [22:11] Pilif12p: just let update-manager do its thing [22:11] {aaron}: hmm. How would I do that? [22:11] if i update my 9.04 to 9.10 my applications will not be work ? [22:11] Mike_lifeguard, yea [22:11] !final | Pilif12p [22:11] Pilif12p: 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. [22:11] melat0nin: I believe so, yes [22:11] would you guys rather get ubuntu 8 or 9? [22:12] klabezo: What application? [22:12] jrib: great, thanks :) [22:12] ubuntu: login and do 'pgrep gdm' [22:12] <{aaron}> Roey: wget http://upload.facebook.com/controls/2008.10.10_v5.5.8/com/facebook/facebookphotouploader5/FacebookPhotoUploader5/class.class [22:12] <{aaron}> and see what it does [22:12] {aaron}: I considered it might be a bug in their app; can you verify by opening up the Add Photos applet? [22:12] Pilif12p: assuming all the updates installed properly, which should be the case with the RC [22:12] Hello all, Small privacy question here. I am in a big local network at the moment with an avarage of 20+ people in the same ip range. I want to hide myself from them. Because atm they can see my Netbios name, open ports and see me as an alive host. Is there a way to hide me? i am a novice, Using Ubuntu 9.10 32Bit latest Build kernel 2.6.31-14-generic, Samba is NOT installed [22:12] <{aaron}> Roey: one sec [22:12] LoCoBoi187: why would you get ubuntu 8.04? [22:12] {aaron}: aye, thanks [22:12] upgraded to karmic, cannot boot into 2.6.31 (hangs after 2s), can boot into 2.6.28 (with problems). tried reinstalling 2.6.31 image, worked once but it broke again, anyone able to help? [22:12] ubuntu: actually, 'ps aux | grep gdm' is more informative [22:12] andyjb10: Probably a good idea to do a clean install of 9.10 [22:12] some thing like color pick & bluefise & appace server [22:13] hey.. has anyone used any form of remote-login with 9.10 yet.. prior to 9.10 I was able to do a remote login thru the login manager.. its not an option now however? [22:13] appache.. [22:13] andyjb10: What did you do to break it? Also, sebsebseb is right. [22:13] sebsebseb: how? [22:13] andyjb10: and md5sum the ISO before burning [22:13] klabezo: Those things should still work after an update [22:13] andyjb10: the contents of it to CD [22:13] !md5sum | andyjb10 [22:13] does it download the whole package/ [22:13] How do I mounted an encrypted folder? [22:13] andyjb10: 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 [22:13] ? [22:13] after using `strings` on hald-addon-cpufreq, it seems it load settings from "org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.cpufreq" where can I find/change that ? [22:13] ubuntu: Any luck seeing if gdm is running? [22:13] ok good [22:13] so i have just wasted 4 hours? [22:13] hello, i have a problem with gparted - resolution is fine, but windows are waaay to big! whats wrong? [22:13] can someone help? [22:13] ops. I mean How do I "mount" an encrypted folder?

[22:14] andyjb10: if I could be snarky for a second, "welcome to the world of Ubuntu" [22:14] alberto2000: lolwut? gparted is a partition manager -- if windows are waaay too big then maybe you're talking about something else/ [22:14] Mike_lifeguard, ok it shows ak47 1895 0.0 0.0 7336 876 tty6 R+ 17:13 0.00 grep --color=au to gdm [22:14] !ecrypt| mercutio22 [22:14] Sorry, I don't know anything about ecrypt [22:14] Mike_lifeguard, when i ps aux | grep gdm [22:14] ok, so gdm isn't running (wtf?) [22:14] andyjb10: yep updates don't always go perfectly propery [22:14] musikgoat1: any clues? [22:14] Quick question: are there any upside or downside to using a USB drive as a system disk for ubuntu? (9.10) [22:15] is gconf-editor something like regedit in windows? [22:15] ubuntu: try 'sudo start gdm' [22:15] so, nobody has any ideas about my xauth problem? [22:15] why can't be installed gparted? [22:15] mercutio22: you should be able to mount with ecryptfs [22:15] KhaosDrone: Install gufw and set it to deny all incoming traffic [22:15] andyjb10: updates generally suck, I always recommend having a separate /home partition and simply reinstalling on the root partition [22:15] sebsebseb, I'm installing the update(from 9.04 to 9.10) right now. I've done that already twice. When it reboots it goes on terminal...no gui or something [22:15] Revol5: it's probably slow and the drive will degrade over the time [22:15] Mike_lifeguard, it show gdm start/running, process 1898 [22:15] Gleim: I don't understand your question, can you try again?

To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [22:16] ubuntu: and if you do CTRL-ALT-F7...? [22:16] i change my sound card after the built in card was damage but i can't hear any voice [22:16] <{aaron}> Roey: it's just spinning [22:16] When trying to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 through update manager I get the wonderfully exacting error: Authentication failed There may be a problem with the network or with the server. Anyone have any clue at all, google gives me a bunch of possibilities. The network is good btw. [22:16] I cannot upgrade to 9.10. I consistently get an error "Failed to fetch http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libo/liboobs/liboobs-1-4_2.22.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb Size mismatch". I have tried re-running the update after "sudo apt-get clean" and changing the download location. Can anyone help? [22:16] Mike_lifeguard: andyjb10 updates usaully go ok, but not always, sometimes hardware stops working in a later version of Ubuntu, and not, because of an upgrade from one version to another [22:16] {aaron}: for you too? [22:16] Mike_lifeguard: no i mean the application windows are like 1000 times bigger than they should be. its absolutely not possible to use gparted that way. is this a common problem? tried to choose other video driver but no luck [22:16] what is the cause of the guid auth unkn error in et wolfenstein? [22:16] This error comes after the packages are downloaded. [22:16] Mike_lifeguard, no luck [22:16] <{aaron}> ....could be because i'm upgrading a machien over the network as well... [22:16] thank you [22:16] Mike_lifeguard i tried to install gparted, but ubuntu can't found that packet :S [22:16] ah. [22:16] klabezo: Have you checked if the sound is not muted and the volume is high enough? [22:16] <{aaron}> ok it loaded [22:16] ah.; [22:17] Mike_lifeguard: andyjb10 ,becasue it turns out it didn't work on the Live CD also, I have a little story in fact [22:17] sebsebseb, that msg was adressing to me? [22:17] {aaron}: which os ar yeou running [22:17] yes the volume is not muted [22:17] Gleim sudo apt-get install gparted [22:17] alberto2000: That has nothing to do with gparted, I think. But honestly I don't know how to help you :( [22:17] <{aaron}> Roey: well...i'm currently on Vista x64... [22:17] how can I set ubuntu 9.10 to mount a hard disk everytime I start up the system ? [22:17] but i have been able to get into karmic a couple of times (selecting 2.6.31 from grub menu) [22:17] oh. [22:17] hlias: no, but maybe those messages are relivant for you [22:18] !fstab > xisco [22:18] xisco, please see my private message [22:18] klabezo: If you right-click on the audio symbol in the upper right corner and click on settings, does it know about your soundcard? [22:18] <{aaron}> Roey: the url from your error is 404, so i'm not sure what it's trying to do [22:18] Any reason Transmission Bittorrent Client would give this error after a new torrent file was made: Couldn't add corrupt torrent [22:18] so ubuntu 9.10 / new GDM does not allow XDMCP login.. why would they remove such a useful feature? [22:18] Gleim: pastebin your command and the output for me? [22:18] hlias: something that worked fine in the previous release, might not work at all in the next one, fortunatly this is not usaully the case [22:18] Mike_lifeguard: maybe its theme based problem? can i change the font size / window border size somehow in gparted? [22:19] i did sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ... Now what? [22:19] jrib, Ubottu Doing on that way, I have to edit the file, is there any GUI to do it ? [22:19] the upgrade manager is up to ask me if I want to remove some not-useful things, should I remove them? cause i did it 2 times and I couldn't get to the gui after the reboot [22:19] ubuntu: It may not be on F7 -- try the other F keys [22:19] I'm having problems mounting external Western Digital usb harddrive after installing 9.10. Drive just clicks on and off ... [22:19] ubuntu: If it still isn't on any of those, then I have run out of ideas to help you, I'm sorry. [22:19] the input tab doesn't show any thing but in the output tab there is some thing [22:19] xisco: pysdm is one way. I think there's a new way in karmic too [22:19] hi, i just installed Ubuntu on my windows vista system, but im having trouble connecting to the wireless because my Dell Inspiron Wireless card can't be turned on. Any help? [22:19] oh, fun Karmic problems... [22:19] hlias: I suggest doing a clean install of 9.10, beause it seems quite a lot of people have had issues upgrading from 9.04 [22:19] just finished installing ubuntu 9.10 and have lost my Thunderbird Lightning calendar and task list. Can anybody help? [22:19] Mike_lifeguard, i'm going try reinstall a fresh install [22:19] Mike_lifeguard, sigh. [22:20] Jester05: new gdm lacks many features, actually. It is totally non-configurable from GUI for example [22:20] dang I need a wave invite!!! [22:20] hi - I installed a program called boinc recently, and I uninstalled it but whenever my computer starts up, I always see it using all my cpu(via top). how can I run sudo killall boinc [22:20] ubuntu: I'm sorry you have to, but I really have no more ideas :( [22:20] BenG92: which wireless device?.. whats the chipset on it?

Does your card show thereß [22:20] ? [22:20] sebsebseb: damn, it's too late :/ it's like on the 80% of the installation, can I cancel it?

[22:20] sebsebseb: but i have been able to get into karmic a couple of times (selecting 2.6.31 from grub menu) [22:20] no cidem nothing there [22:20] hlias: yes, but that would not be a good idea at all, things will be rather messed up if you do that [22:20] hi can anyone tell me how to stop grub from loading on start up ? thanks [22:20] its a Broadcom wireless card, the default to come with a Dell Inspiron 1501 [22:21] ubuntu: If you do, then you just leave the /home partition untouched when reinstalling. If not, now is a very good time to get yourself a separate /home partition! [22:21] thanks ubottu [22:21] Mike_lifeguard, yes I do . And I'm not sure how too reinstall [22:21] I'm on the 9.10 installer, and it's trying to combine sda and sdb into a RAID mirror, even though I don't want it to. Anyone know how to tell the system that the disks aren't mirrored? === werdan7_ is now known as werdan7 [22:21] BenG92 it may take some doing, there is a wiki for it on the Ubuntu docs page [22:21] BenG92: how does lspci identify it.. ther's like 3-4 different ones [22:21] ubuntu: Download the ISO from a torrent (you'll get much faster speeds) and reinstall like normal from that [22:21] Hello, how can I auto-generate a menu.lst for my kernels? [22:21] hi, i would like to remove ubuntu from my machine and from now on use windows bootloader. how can this be done in the most simple manner? [22:21] histo: and if it asks you to remove uneeded packages, that should be ok [22:22] amikrop: sudo update-grub, IIRC [22:22] histo: to tell it to remove those packages [22:22] Mike_lifeguard, yes I do . untouch so i just don't click anything for home . and delete the /boot partation and / paration and [22:22] klabezo: That's too bad. What is the brand and product name of the card? [22:22] right now im on vista (because i can't connect on ubuntu) so i can't really say its exact spec [22:22] I selected "keep current version" during upgrade but I changed my mind [22:22] sebsebseb: are you pretty sure about that remove thing? :D [22:22] Mike_lifeguard: ok, thanks [22:22] BenG92 mine worked default with 8.10 on an Inspiron 2200 [22:22] Mike_lifeguard and remake / and /boot [22:22] ubuntu: Sure. IIRC, there is a way to have it use /home (but don't change anything on it)... but I forget /exactly/ how to do it [22:22] amikrop: make usre you are using legacy grub though, not grub2 [22:22] amikrop: yeah keeping the old version of Grub is probaly a good idea [22:22] Do i have to reboot after i do the sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? [22:22] amikrop: ,but to late now by the sounds of it [22:22] BenG92: well, my dartboard hasn't been accurate today, so we'll have to leave it at that [22:23] sebsebseb: yeah :P [22:23] ubuntu: So, you can just have it ignore /home totally, and reinstall on the other partitions. Then, edit fstab to have it mount /home [22:23] musikgoat1: how can I check that? [22:23] i think it some thing like premium [22:23] ubuntu: (you can use a livecd to do that) [22:23] ok, but CavalierPrime, you say theres a wiki page? if so il do take a look [22:23] I'm having an issue with 9.10 and installing packages manually with dpkg. These packages were downloaded from the live cd using a synaptic download script. Ardour, Qjackctl, meterbridge, all create broken packages after installation with dpkg. I manually tried installing them one by one and the jack package seems to be the culprit. Gdebi throws this error "Error:Breaks existing package 'libjack0', conflict: jackd (> 0.116.1-4ubuntu2)".

[22:23] BenG92: the wiki page seems to be a bit outdated for karmic..

[22:24] ok, thanks again, I reboot [22:24] Mike_lifeguard: your right [22:24] ok cidem if i go to windows and see the name it will be good for you to help me ? [22:24] BenG92 here is a start https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff [22:24] ubuntu: Ubuntu still needs to know to mount that partition as /home ....select it during manual partitioning process, but DO NOT format it :) [22:24] Hello, I'm trying to stop GRUB from loading on startup, can anyone help? [22:25] LinuxGuy2009: run "sudo dpkg -i /path/to/directory/*.deb" [22:25] oscar__: Grub is meant to load when your computer is turned on or re booted [22:25] klabezo: Simply open a terminal and type "lspci", it should show up there [22:25] oscar__: since you need A boot loader, what do you want to use instead? [22:25] jrib: now just did: sudo chmod -rw /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-cpufreq.fdi [22:25] Ublondie, ubuntu: Yeah, that's right. I was always really scared to have it use /home on that screen because I wasn't exactly sure what it would do... they should make it clearer how to do that. [22:25] oscar__: or another boot loader such as Lilo when doing a Linux distro [22:25] oscar__: What would you like to happen instead of grub loading? [22:25] Jordan_U: Right, thats what I usually do without a hitch when I was on 9.04. Never had this issue before. === Droide is now known as Droid [22:25] jrib: so HAL doesn't load the settings (I hope so, at least) === Droid is now known as Droide [22:25] hi all, does anyone know if theres a way to recover files i deleted before i install 9.10? [22:25] henkpoley: that's not very pretty, but ok [22:25] man this channel needs a handful of full-time supporters ;) [22:26] Jordan_U: Wondering if I have discovered a bug or something. [22:26] sebsebseb: I'm trying to recover my system using a recovery partition [22:26] oscar__: Probably you really just want GRUB to have a timeout of zero so it automatically chooses the default entry and boots into it quickly [22:26] jrib: unless someone can tell me what to, it doesn't seem to be documented *anywhere* [22:26] sebsebseb: but grub is loading after I try to start it [22:26] Mike_lifeguard: agreed ....I have done it twice now (re doing fresh installs - both 9.04 and 9.10), so feel comfortable with it :) ....if it's not selected, then the drive doesn't get mounted of course, when you start Ubuntu [22:26] Broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated Controller [22:26] ok brb === j is now known as Guest23010 [22:26] oscar__: Grub probably has an entry for your recovery partition, hold down shift during boot if you don't see the grub menu [22:26] BenG92: thats a wired controller [22:26] all i can pull from my spec given to me from Vista [22:26] henkpoley: why not just create your own .fdi based on that one with the proper governor? [22:26] jrib: I only find confused people (with laptops, where a power change also triggers HAL to reset the governor) [22:26] BenG92 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff [22:27] Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-Card [22:27] CavalierPrime: thats from feisty... [22:27] lol [22:27] jrib: no, it only loads the "setter' it doesn't specify a setting [22:27] it will work [22:27] henkpoley: are you on karmic though? [22:27] Just reading that Cavalier [22:27] CavalierPrime: lol [22:27] jrib: Jaunty [22:27] i have an inspiron 2200 [22:27] Jordan_U: I do see the GRUB menu, I dont see teh recovery partition, I'm not actually trying to get into the parition manually [22:27] Hi [22:27] it has a broadcom and it works now [22:27] BenG92: Do not follow that guide unless you have already tried System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [22:27] BenG92: likely that is using a broadcom chipset, unless things have changed recently, dell usually rebrands broadcom wireless cards? [22:27] cidem please see your pm [22:28] musikgoat1: oh, the boot failed [22:28] oops that wasn't a question [22:28] does anyone know if there is a way to recover deleted files that are no longer on my hdd? [22:28] Jordan_U: It is just a recovery manager that uses that partition, I just press f11 when I boot up my comptuer to start it ip [22:28] Has anyone else had problems with the latest server release? As in, it keeps crashing? [22:28] musikgoat1, yes that do [22:28] I got File Not Found on GRUB [22:28] can anyone help with problems mounting an external USB hard drive :( [22:28] jrib: reboot.. cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor ... ondemand .. shit [22:28] Jordan_U: it's just that when I try to start it up, GRUB loads and stops the recovery process\ [22:28] il try some of these things you are suggesting now [22:28] musikgoat1: and I edited the GRUB line on the fly, and used the 13 kernel (not the 14) [22:28] Ublondie: Yes, but it's trivial to add it to /etc/fstab and alter the filesystem [22:28] !fixgrub | amikrop [22:28] amikrop: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows?

Did it use to (before your chmod)? [22:28] and fortunately it booted [22:29] it seems update-grub failed [22:29] Is it just my server that randomy crashes, or has it been happening to others? [22:29] Mike_lifeguard: ok ...good to know .... [22:29] anyone else notice that the audio mixer acts strange when adjusting volume? it does a mix of Master and PCM alterations.. is this to mimic logarithmic volume controls? [22:29] dose anyone else have issues with skype processing at 100% (using 9.10) [22:29] musikgoat1: since I upgraded from 9.04 I still have GRUB 1, right? [22:29] amikrop: not likely [22:29] yes, until 9.10 [22:30] does ubuntu one sync to windows? [22:30] amikrop: If you upgraded to grub2 and are now getting grub error 15 it's probably because you didn't check a drive to install to during the upgrade, to fix this follow this guide: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide then run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and don't forget to choose a drive to install to [22:30] don't think so... [22:30] infidx: not currently [22:30] jrib: hey I've set it with `cpufreq-set`, I set it at boot with /etc/rc.local and an echo, and I set with /etc/sysctl.conf [22:30] Anyone know how I can get the installer to not think that /dev/sda and /dev/sdb should be combined into /dev/mapper ? [22:30] henkpoley: also make sure gnome-power-manager isn't responsible [22:30] jrib: and that chmod hack [22:30] how does the karmic home folder encryption work? i'm using virtualbox and have machines on /sdb1 but as i'm building the guest machines the file system on /home is growing instead of the location of the machines [22:30] jrib: and still it goes back to ondemand [22:30] BoredKender, btw I still run XMMS cuz of its EQ (or winamps presets) that give it that little bit of nice. audacious sounds like crap with the same presets. [22:30] Hello. [22:30] henkpoley: right but if you change it now, and it doesn't change back, that means it's just something in the boot process. If it does change back, then you have a daemon setting it [22:30] jrib: I don't think I have anything gnome-power-manager [22:30] So there is still no AIM client for Linux with voice chat support? [22:30] Do i do anything after sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to update? [22:30] Jordan_U: I was not asked to choose a drive during the upgrade [22:30] infidx: if your looking for a cross compaitble version, look at dropbox [22:30] henkpoley: check: ps -ef | grep power [22:31] jrib: actually that is there too yes.. [22:31] amikrop: Yes, you'll have grub-legacy (it is too dangerous to update bootloader during an upgrade) [22:31] I want to use kaffeine to watch DVB-S TV, but after installing the codecs and scanning for channels, tuning to one of them only gives me audio, no video. I use xine backend, since with gstreamer I get the error "medium was not accessible". Does anyone have another idea on what to check/try next? [22:31] henkpoley: gnome-power-manager is? [22:31] Hi, ive upgraded my easypeasy installation, and now the mouse aint working.. Anyone know what I can do to fix this? [22:31] amikrop: Did you run "sudo upgrade-from-grub-legacy" ? It should have prompted you [22:31] Mike_lifeguard: are you sure, i believe part of the upgrade process is installing grub2 over grub [22:31] jrib: any idea where *that* can be set, gnome-power-manager settings ? from XFCE [22:31] Jordan_U: I didn't [22:31] I have done a clean install of Karmic desktop on a Dell Latitude C610 laptop. The screen displays incorrectly: there are strange green broken horizontal lines of various lengths at the top of the screen and windows like firefox do not display correctly. Also it does not recover properly from the screensaver. I had to install from the alternate install CD as the graphics on the live CD do not work properly. I had the same problem with the live CDs for [22:31] ok one last time can anyone or does anyone know if theres a way to recover files that i deleted from my hdd? im planning on installing 9.10 and i want to make sure i can get it before it actually erases it fully [22:31] henkpoley: gconf was the way I did it before [22:32] * IndyGunFreak misses grub-legacy already [22:32] what's the main reason to upgrade to 9.10, is it bad to keep using 9.04 for another year? [22:32] hey, anyone running karmic on acer aspire one here? [22:32] musikgoat1: No, it doesn't upgrade the bootloader, nor does it upgrade filesystems to ext4 (obviously) [22:32] Mike_lifeguard: since I have legacy then why did the menu.lst from update-grub failed? [22:32] musikgoat1: But it is very easy to upgrade [22:32] how do I rescan for hardware drivers? [22:32] I cannot access my lightning calendar or task list in after upgrading to 9.10, even Thunderbird shows lightning as being installed. Anybody able to help? [22:32] Jordan_U: I should run that now? [22:32] amikrop: Did you do a fresh install of Karmic? If not how did you upgrade to grub2 [22:32] amikrop: I'm not sure I understand what you mean [22:32] hardware drivers keeps showing I have no proprietary drivers, even though I know I do (broadcom 4312) [22:32] When my mouse aint working, what can I do to fix it? [22:32] how can I get Ubuntu studio on my Ubuntu desktop? [22:33] Jordan_U: I upgraded from 9.04 to Karmic. I think I still have GRUB 1. [22:33] I cheated, used the DVD. [22:33] jrib: at least "power management preferences" in XFCE don't mention anything about scaling governors, also I don't think my mythtv user has the rights to fiddel with that [22:33] I have an ubuntu eee pc [22:33] I also have a similar problem with my Dell Dimension 2400 with 9.10 although here the graphics are so blurry at the logon screen that I cannot even log on. [22:33] blue0488, install ubuntustudio pkg... but keep in mind that the closed source nvidia/ati drivers won't work [22:33] Successfully resumed and completed the 9.10 upgrade, I think. I seem to have one outstanding problem ... unable to reconfigure nfs-common. 'Removing system startup links for /etc/init.d/nfs-common' ; 'startL Unknown job: statd' ; 'invoke-rc.d: initscript statd, action "restart" failed' ; at which point dpkg bails. Tried installing, and reinstalling, statd; no joy. Any suggestions? [22:33] amikrop: You should, I don't know why you are getting that error message. [22:33] amikrop: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1037538 [22:33] Mike_lifeguard: I ran an update-grub and a new menu.lst was generated (I think). But I rebooted and got an error 15. [22:33] HALLELUJAH!! 9.10 on my pc! [22:33] amikrop: I don't know what error 15 is [22:34] is anyone else getting kernel problem errors? [22:34] <_nix_> hlias: hoorey [22:34] * Jordan_U Notes to IndyGunFreak that this problem actually seems to have nothing to do with grub2 [22:34] !yay | hlias [22:34] hlias: Glad you made it! :-) [22:34] Jordan_U: I got that message after I ran update-grub (before a while) [22:34] amikrop, update or upgrade? [22:34] Jordan_U: :).. but i still miss it [22:34] duffydack, never heard of it, but i dont do much audio work anymore [22:34] I think I missed private message before from someone? ....can anyone help with problems with mounting external USB harddrive?

[22:35] The problem mighta been that on my previous attemptions I pressed on "delete those unneeded things" on the upgrader.

[22:36] PiLoT2: I dont know if I can help you but can you describe the problem fully and then if I can help I will [22:36] CavalierPrime: that only tells you your partition info, not where a /home directory is located [22:36] Anyone running electic sheep in 9.10? [22:36] woble: (hd0) /dev/sda [22:36] infidx: Because that would not let users easily make full use of their hard drive's space [22:36] how long should it take to upgrade to 9.10 over the internet? [22:36] amikrop, just 1 HD in the box? [22:36] yes [22:37] anyone getting someone about Not being able to mount one or more partitions before normally booting in to the system [22:37] infidx as long as a piece of string [22:37] infidx: You have the choice whether to use a dedicated partition for /home. There are pros and cons both ways so that is a personal choice [22:37] is anyone using ebtables here with vlans? [22:37] infidx: depends on your connection [22:37] spaztik, ive noticed it's a little quiet in general. I wish I could hook ubuntu up to some kind of amplifier. [22:37] ok, well its picked up the device and itll go on the internet, only problem is itll block certain site (thanks to my provider) previous way around this was to change the apn but that isnt working anymore [22:37] musikgoat1 home is gonna be on the largest linux partition right? [22:37] amikrop, dual booting with XP or Vista? [22:37] amikrop: You can always check what version you have with 'grub-install -v' [22:37] woble: so, what should I do? it seems I have a broken menu.lst now [22:37] woble: no [22:37] CavalierPrime: no [22:37] amikrop: Try following the same instructions you would use after installing windows to re-install grub [22:37] !grub | amikrop [22:37] amikrop: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10).

[22:37] yes it is [22:37] woble: and create a new menu.lst? === gmaculo_ is now known as gmaculo [22:38] yes, just reinstall grub, thats the easiest way to fix this [22:38] infidx: the question is more, how big / should be. I recommend 10 gb. [22:38] infidx: you probably want 8GB for root, the rest for /home [22:38] ubuntu isn't finding my proprietary drivers === xtr-2 is now known as xtr [22:38] infidx - took me 5 hours last night, but relatively slow broadband here in NZ [22:38] hello [22:38] infidx: 10 is fine too :) [22:38] is there a audio program that lets me edit a lot of songs at one in other words increase the audio of all the songs at once I don't want to use audacity it only lets me edit 1 song at a time [22:38] Evolution doesn't seem to want to accept my decryption key for the confirmation e-mail you get when entering an OpenPGP key on launchpad - any ideas? === kb is now known as Guest46212 [22:38] infidx: I've got a 8mbps line.

[22:39] ok well enough fun for today, bye [22:39] I'm having a problem with gnote. It doesn't seem to like to link to every note I create. But I'm puzzled about why. There's no consistensy in what it does. [22:39] PROBLEM! Ubiquity crashes near the end of the installation of ubuntu 9.10. Do you have any ideas? [22:39] amikrop: If that doesn't work I would suggest upgrading to grub2 which is ( according to the developers at least ) more robust and from my experience easier to debug === iTroll is now known as _iTroll [22:39] amikrop: Here is some information I found useful in understanding grub and fixing some problems. http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/grub/grub.htm http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-grub-tutorial-howtos.html [22:39] should i make /var a separate partition if i'm running apache on ubuntu?

[22:40] Berzerker: which broadcom.. didn't i give you a link on that earlier [22:40] IndyGunFreak: tried moblin remix, wireless drivers kinda worked, but the OS wasn't as good as UNR, so I went back to it, and now they can't find my broadcom drivers. [22:40] Berzerker: Try "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter" [22:40] is there a tool to ~easily~ undervolt my cpu? like the rmclock prog. i looked and only found ways to change the frequency, but not the voltage. [22:40] Berzerker: is it 9.04 or 9.10? [22:40] did anyone see crashes in ubiquity when installing ubuntu 9.10? [22:40] Jordan_U: thanks, that's what I needed. [22:41] IndyGunFreak: 9.10 [22:41] anybody know how to get lightning working again under 9.10? was working under 9.04 before upgrade. [22:41] Berzerker: np [22:41] lewic, uninstall, and reinstall [22:41] Berzerker: which broadcom is it?.. [22:41] lewic, that does the job [22:41] 4312 [22:41] Berzerker: http://jetpackweb.com/blog/2009/10/29/ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala-and-broadcom-bcm4312/ [22:41] lewic, you can install lightning with the new ubuntu software center [22:41] that didn't work, I needed the b43 cutter drives, the ones Jordan_U linked. [22:42] Berzerker: hmm, weird [22:42] What's everyone think of Karmic as opposed to Jaunty? [22:42] wobble - tried uninstalling lightning and reinstalling again, but still no links to calendars. Thunderbird shows it as installed [22:42] Jordan_U: that package doesn't exist, btw [22:42] Also, what is the quick way to stop the WLAN LED from flickering by traffic... pretty annoying :( [22:42] nkei0: well, if it goes good, its great.. if the upgrade breaks.. it sucks. :) [22:43] henkpoley: well the interface may be similar, but they aren't really the same thing. Also, gnome-power-manager may fall back to straight conf files if it doesn't have gconf (not sure) [22:43] henkpoley: presumably since you can change SOME settings in the gui, it must fallback to something other than gconf [22:43] IndyGunFreak, hah, well that's obvious. I wanted a general consensus prior to attempting to break my system :( [22:43] i change the sound card slot and i think the system can feel it now how can i setup it now to start hear the voice ? [22:43] it works fine for me [22:43] OK, let's take this from the beginning because I think I mislead you. [22:43] hi folks, I would like to try the latest ubuntu release, but I don't have blank cdrom... I've blank dvd. can I burn a cd .iso on a dvd? [22:43] Berzerker: its definitely in the repos.. check your sources.. cuz i've got it available [22:43] I upgraded from 9.04 to karmic and I chose to keep my version of menu.lst. [22:44] !info b43-fwcutter | Berzerker [22:44] Berzerker: b43-fwcutter (source: b43-fwcutter): Utility for extracting Broadcom 43xx firmware. In component main, is optional. Version 1:012-1 (karmic), package size 17 kB, installed size 112 kB [22:44] jrib: I'm trying to set it up with gconf-editor by going with some bugreports about missing interface in Gnome going back to ubuntu 6.something [22:44] But now, I have a new kernel (14) which is not in use because of my old menu.lst. [22:44] sebas891, Yes. Also, you can also make a bootable flashstick. [22:44] henkpoley: k [22:44] How can I inform menu.lst of my new kernel? [22:44] musikgoat1: that's all :) [22:44] is there a audio program that lets me edit a lot of songs at once in other words increase the audio of all the songs at once I don't want to use audacity it only lets me edit 1 song at a time I know jet audio does what I want but it is a windows program and I would have to pay for it [22:44] jrib: apparently this worked [22:44] nkei0: ok, thank, a bootable flashstick? can I do that easily? [22:44] henkpoley: cool (you should probably unchmod the file from before) [22:45] Jordan_U: my only problem is "how can I inform menu.lst of my new kernel"? [22:45] amikrop: sudo update-grub [22:45] sebas891, Yeah, It's really easy to do. As long as your bios supports it anyways. If your computer was made anytime in the last decade you should be good. [22:45] I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 desktop on both my Dell Dimension 2400 desktop and Dell Latitude C610 laptop. On both machines the graphics does not work properly. On the Dimension I cant even login as the login screen is so blurry. On the Latitude I can logon but the screen has random broken green lines across the top and windows like firefox do not show the contents - only the outline and title bar. I had to install from the alternate CD as even the l [22:45] Jordan_U: isn't it update-grub2 ? [22:45] i change the sound card slot and i think the system can feel it now how can i setup it now to start hear the voice ? [22:45] sebas891: on the last install page you have to pick advanced and make sure GRUB is installed on the flash stick only, otherwise GRUB will he installed on your main harddisk [22:45] nkei0: it's a macbook :) [22:45] can i make /home a separate partition even though linux is already installed with it not being separate? i want to separate /home right now, that when i format and install ubuntu 9.10 i won't lose my /home [22:46] jrib: in gconf-editor, go to /apps/gnome-power-manager/cpufreq, create a 'string' key named "policy_ac" give it "performance" as content --- just for the inevitable IRC logs that google will find [22:46] infidx: Yes, I'll grab instructions for you... [22:46] IndyGunFreak: update-grub is a symlink to update-grub2 if you have grub2 installed, so "sudo update-grub" should do the right thing with either grub legacy or grub2 [22:46] sebas891: i am running ubuntu from an external usb hdd right now, works good if you keep GRUB from your main disk ;) [22:46] infidx: there are a few good guides on the net on how to move home to a separate partition [22:46] jrib: this all reminds me of windows too much... [22:46] infidx: http://embraceubuntu.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/ [22:46] IndyGunFreak: And he is using legacy [22:46] Jordan_U: I did that and failed to boot. [22:46] ha, indeed.. didn't know that [22:46] I'm new to linux, and am having trouble with the cube effect on compiz any advice? [22:46] neohelix: I just want a livecd. I don't wan to install it on the machine, since, it's not my machine. [22:47] does anyone use an MSI Wind? [22:47] it was more curiosity, not a correction... [22:47] henkpoley: gconf isn't really like the windows registry [22:47] amikrop: Did you get an error message? [22:47] mpweitekamp: State what *kind* of trouble :) [22:47] Hello, I have an epc, with karmic netbook remix on it anyway i'm having trouble getting to do updates [22:47] mpweitekamp, the cube is crap... [22:47] *not working haha [22:47] HI quick question... I want to find out the I/O Ranges for my VT6420 Chip... I have Ubuntu Device Manager but it doesnt give addresses... how can I do this? [22:47] IndyGunFreak: probably a sudo apt-get update would help with the proprietary drivers search [22:47] Jordan_U: will that replace my menu.lst or create a menu.lst.new or something? [22:47] mpweitekamp: not working in *what way*? be specific please [22:47] IndyGunFreak: that which I did not do [22:47] jrib: I understand, but without key documentation it is pretty much the same [22:47] Berzerker: would help. [22:47] infidx: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome [22:47] mpweitekamp: Does it crash compiz? does it crash X? Does it cause your computer to start smoking? Does it simply not rotate on command? [22:47] ok, how do u respond with someones name in this chat [22:47] jrib: teo me it's just a magic key [22:47] IndyGunFreak: do you also know about volume unmuting after waking up after hibernating? [22:47] !tab | mpweitekamp [22:47] neohelix: i think the macbook cannot boot from usb. [22:47] mpweitekamp: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [22:48] henkpoley: fair enough, gnome policy requires the program to expose these :) [22:48] nope it doesnt crash, just doesnt work, thank u [22:48] please some one help me to setup my sound card [22:48] Jordan_U: I mean, should I manually delete my menu.lst and then run update-grub? [22:48] infidx: You can change your home to a separate partition if you want. Just boot from a liveCD and then move your home directory to another partition. Then change /etc/fstab to point to your new home partition and ensure you have an empty directory at /home to mount your home partition into [22:48] Berzerker: ... i've not really paid attention to that one yet [22:48] Anyone on finding out the port for my VT6420 chip? [22:48] mpweitekamp: You may be better help in #compiz btw [22:48] amikrop: You shouldn't need to but you can try that ( renaming it to menu.lst-bak is safer though ) [22:48] sebas891: ah sorry, too much information then :) When i tried booting from a DVD it didnt work... [22:48] ok, thank u [22:48] hey so i just updated my desktop to karmic and I'm finding that it drops to the old-style boot process where it shows all the services starting. it then starts flickering wildly [22:49] infidx: Alternatively you can just copy the home directory to another partition and then just copy the contents back again after install. Thats what I did and it was all fine. [22:49] StrikerST- maybe try sudo dmidecode [22:49] ok let me go try [22:49] jrib: to expose them there already is .. magic key (seriously), you create under /apps/gnome-power-manager/ui/ a key named "cpufreq_show", then it should appear.. under Gnome [22:49] im just looking for the port of my VT6420 chip [22:49] Jordan_U: ok, I am trying that and reboot (I hope it works or I am out of my computer) [22:49] i found some people who had this problem, has to do with nvidia drivers not being recompiled and said to restart in recovery mode and dpkg-reconfigure them, but of course when i do that my keyboard doesn't work [22:49] neohelix: from a dvd disc on a dvd rom with a cd iso burn on it ? [22:49] it gives mobo stats and stuff [22:49] Jordan_U: is it better to use the b43 driver or STA driver?

[23:16] !nvidia | electrod [23:16] electrod: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [23:17] BenG92: Almost done :) [23:17] =) [23:17] sebsebseb, I need toget it going in this install, many important things running on it including a development environment running windows xp virtulised under virtualbox etc [23:17] Hi everyone. Any news on how to fix the audio in Karmic? I upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic. Sound preferences does not see my audio device, but "aplay -l" does. [23:17] phil-99: 9.10 is a good one to clean install anyway, Ext4 by default and Grub 2 for clean installs [23:17] Mike_lifeguard what i have to do first?? [23:17] hi guys, how can I get the newest gnome-do in 9.04 [23:17] Mike_lifeguard should i delete everything from fstab and copy and paste what u send me into the fstab????? [23:17] skinnystaro: do you have the history plugin in on? [23:17] sebsebseb: I was hoping not to have to do that :-) Oh well! [23:17] anybody with ideas on to solve a rendering issue on openoffice with karmic? can't find much online.... [23:17] ak47: Use a liveCD, mount the root partition, cd /home and remove the contents (rm -r whatever [23:17] skinnystaro: -in [23:17] ) [23:17] kermit: yeah, probably, is it buggy? [23:17] River: I don't know enough about networking to be able to help properly, good luck though [23:18] ak47: Yeah, you can replace your current fstab with that, I just aligned the other lines nicely [23:18] I just burned the 9.10 cd, and everytime I try to install, it always freezes. occasionally the live cd freezes as well [23:18] tado: What type of rendering issues are you having? [23:18] please help me to setup my sound card i can't hear any voice [23:18] !md5sum | reti [23:18] reti: 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 [23:18] ak47: MAKE SURE your home partition isn't mounted when you delete that stuff! You don't want to delete anything from that partition, only what the installer made on the root partition [23:18] Mike_lifeguard if i replace your current fstab with that i don't need the livecd? do i? [23:18] skinnystaro: well, this channel generates a lot of scoll, and history will try to load the entire last log in something like O(n^4) speed, which for me would cause it to freeze [23:18] each time I try to burn the karmic koala iso the cd or dvd does not boot at all. I burn as slow as 3x [23:18] is there an easy way to save my panels and font options for xfce? I want to install 9.10 but do not want to do the upgrade [23:18] skinnystaro: but anyway, turnt that off and i bet it'll work [23:19] sebsebseb: I did the verify image option in the menu, and it said it was correct === john is now known as Guest18457 [23:19] !md5sum | brunoscunha [23:19] brunoscunha: 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 [23:19] aquachica: the menu looks a bit fuzzy, like out of focus, the text too, and when i select text it looks like the orange is covering the text in a wierd way... a bit difficult to explain. maybe i should attach a print screen? [23:19] dsaf' [23:19] klabezo: Neither can I. Karmic Gnome Sound Preferences is not seeing my audio device. And I have tried a lot ways to fix it. [23:19] eido: make a backup of your home folder ? [23:19] Mike_lifeguard "Use a liveCD, mount the root partition, cd /home and remove the contents (rm -r whatever" is there other way removing that ?> [23:19] reti: the menu does the psyical CD, not the ISO you downloaded [23:19] kermit: cheers, i'll give that a shot, ircii feels a little hardcore for me ;) [23:19] BenG92: First Download these files and put them on a flash drive so you can put them on your networkless machine: http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/b/b43-fwcutter/b43-fwcutter_012-1_i386.deb http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2 [23:19] !rar [23:19] rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft.

[23:19] ak47: Well, you still need to delete /home from the root partition either way - I'm not sure how much ubuntu will like doing that while you're logged in [23:19] brunoscunha: can you read the cd? [23:19] my X is screwed up [23:19] sebsebseb: ok, i'll take a look at it [23:19] erUSUL, yeah I thought that but was hoping to trim the fat off it [23:20] brunoscunha: np [23:20] tado: I think I understand. I had something similar happen to me in 9.04 with Abiword. I think it might be the video driver. [23:20] !X [23:20] The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [23:20] VLC keeps crashing on me and my newly installed 64bit karmic.. it seems to be a known problem from several months ago.. but I can't find any solutions for it.. any hints? [23:20] ak47: You can try doing it while logged in... (use sudo -i so you have a root prompt) [23:20] sebsebseb, Do you know where I can get the md5sum for the 1386 and 64bit DVD? [23:20] ae [23:20] Ok Jordan_U [23:20] kermit: yes I can. all files are the === Isaac-here is now known as Isaac-ifferstone [23:20] I only care about the xfce settings [23:20] eido: ask in #xubuntu where the settings are stored bavku only that [23:20] argh does anyone know how to compile the linux driver for another kernel without having that kernel loaded? [23:20] LordFDisk, why are you using the dvd's? they just have more languages that you dont need === skinofstars1 is now known as kin [23:21] with other ubuntu releases i never had this problem [23:21] i can't get into the new kernel without nvidia drivers, can't compile nvidia drivers without using the new kernel [23:21] I have samba shares set up on a computer and I can view them on another linux computer but windows7 can't view them. How can I fix that? [23:21] channels always dead but thanks, I'll just backup the home folder [23:21] I am starting to think that Karmic is Ubuntu's Vista. [23:21] aquachica: ok... any idea on how to solve it? i had an issue also with the fonts in firefox when i upgraded, but i fixed quickly [23:21] lol no [23:21] I don't see any pages detailing the differences of this new release from 9.04. Is there any? [23:21] BoredKender, I downloaded them all [23:21] Karmic is probably the best distro of Ubuntu I've ever used. [23:21] hey all, is there a way i can clean up gnome after a new install with an old home p?artition [23:22] my karmic is 3 weeks old.. ive used all other distros.. this one kicks butt. [23:22] Mike_lifeguard i'm not sure if its working I've copy and paste to [23:22] the fset [23:22] it has a smoothness [23:22] Mike_lifeguard, fstab and save it [23:22] tado: Have you tried switching the way the fonts are being displayed? System > Appearance Preferences > Fonts (Tab) [23:22] Hello. Help me please - how I can burn the full mirror to dvd's? [23:22] Mike_lifeguard, what is the next step? [23:22] Is some software available for it? [23:22] kin: look at the hidden folders, the ones that start with . cleaning them out would reset everything. [23:22] It's either Ubuntu or Arch. The 2 best distros right now. [23:23] ak47: Did you remove /home from the root partition (not the /home partition)? [23:23] LordFDisk: reti brunoscunha http://releases.ubuntu.com/md5sum and then it's one of those files for the md5sum code that your ISO needs to be [23:23] Mike_lifeguard how? [23:23] uh [23:23] sebsebseb: thank you, i'll check [23:23] LordFDisk: reti Berzerker http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10 [23:23] what's a good backup system to copy whole partitions to backup images? [23:23] i know that deleting .gnome etc would remove everything, but it seems a little drastic to have to delete all and return to square one [23:23] sansei: partimage [23:23] How can I get windows 7 to see my samba shares on my ubuntu computer? [23:23] uh again. Berzerker not you, brunoscunha yes you [23:23] !info partimage > sansei [23:24] aquachica: playing with it... just a sec [23:24] Hi, I just upgraded to Karmic and I wonder why apt installs recommended packages too (I know how to change it, so that's not the questiion). Is it something new in Karmic, Jaunty or Intrepid, or I missed such a configuration was even before? [23:24] kin: then what specifically are you looking to do? [23:24] Hi, after upgrading to 9.10 I'm unable to use the 1280x1024 resolution and am stuck with 800x600. This higher resolution is not available in system>pref>display. I tried Karmic livecd with the correct md5 but this did not fix it. There was originally no xorg.conf, so I tried to make one, first using dexconf and then using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but these did nothing. Finally I created one using Xorg --configure but this was s [23:24] ak47: sudo -i && rm -rf /home (PLEASE be careful your /home directory isn't mounted or you will lose everything you care about!) [23:24] Uuu: it was changed in jaunty iirc [23:24] carpediem: just a cleaning utility i guess [23:24] erUSUL: thanks [23:24] Mike_lifeguard oh no can i undo what i copy and paste [23:24] anyone else had trouble with the installer not picking up disks? [23:25] sebsebseb: my iso has that md5sum, is there a way to test the disc after it's been written? [23:25] kin: but, specifically what do you want to clean [23:25] Then I tried modifying this bare xorg.conf file, but I couldn't get it to work even though I know all of the monitor specifications (horz scan range, vert scan range, optimal preset resolution, etc). [23:25] erUSUL: Ah, that's the case. Thanks. I think this option's not good and it's one thing i dislike in aptitude most (but it can be change, good). [23:25] ak47: editing fstab doesn't mount anything yet [23:25] Uuu: there is a way, i forgot about, to change the default... [23:25] ?/ [23:25] reti: burn it slow, and then you can also do the psyical CD check option on the CD [23:25] carpediem: or perhaps some kind of guide to what gnome settings reside in what folder. at the moment, i'm a bit frustrated with menus [23:25] Mike_lifeguard: I usually prefer to mv /home /oldhome ; mkdir /home or similar.. once i'm sure things are right I can rm -rf /oldhome [23:25] aquachica: ok, i changed it and moved it back and the fonts look fine. any idea about the text selection? that doesn't look good yet [23:26] Mike_lifeguard ok what next [23:26] erUSUL: I know, thanks :) I think I'll change it soon. Have a nice day! [23:26] Jordan_U what now? [23:26] ak47: reboot and hope for the best :P [23:26] kin: I can tell you where almost every setting lives, but really, have to be more specific than "gnome" [23:26] carpediem: think i trawl gnome docs a bit, thanks for your time [23:26] sebsebseb: is there a way to md5sum it after i write it, not in the burning software? [23:26] Hi, I installed ubuntu 9.10 and i'm having occasional wireless connection drops while streaming live video or music. dmesg states "ath5k phy0: unsupported jumbo". Does anyone have an idea how to resolve before I try and install madwifi? [23:26] sebsebseb, just did a gedit and those are just for the cdrom Iso images not DVD [23:26] I am trying to refresh my swap partition and I get an error: "swapoff: /dev/sda6: swapoff failed: invalid argument" swap is /dev/sda6 I think sda6 is read-only... but I don't know how to change that... I am in "recover mode" [23:26] zcat[1]: slightly different thing, but yes, that's normally better [23:26] BenG92: Now I have to test that the script I made works, then I will give it to you and tell you how to use it :) [23:27] ok :) [23:27] LordFDisk: did a gedit?? [23:27] hi, a have a problem with sound in the Karmic (9.10), after upgrade ubuntu my sound dont work [23:27] tado: I think that part would have to do with the video driver. In 9.04, I had to wait for fix before everything went back to normal. I hate to say it, but you might have to do the same with 9.10. :( [23:27] Mike_lifeguard: btw rm -rf /home removes the /home mountpoint too; I think you forgot to mention mkdir /home again? [23:27] reti: if you still have the ISO you can md5sum check it, not in the burning software [23:27] What is Avant window navigator ? [23:27] What does avant window navigator do ? [23:27] rogerio: Join the club. Karmic seems to enjoy making everyone deaf. [23:27] enatom_: it is a dock [23:27] you can look at whats it's going to check with gedit [23:27] its like macs desktop icon setup [23:28] reti: Windows you install a program for that, Desktop Linux you do it in the terminal [23:28] aquachica: to explain a bit better: the text doesn't remain black highlighted in orange, if i select it. it's like if the orangeish selection is on top of the text and partially hides it [23:28] enatom_: have a look at the project page to see [23:28] enatom_: if you want a dock, i would suggest using gnome-do [23:28] IT work [23:28] you can do the same thing with gnome-do [23:28] Hello, I have a problem I installed adobe flashplugin, it looks like there is a problem with the package, I can't un-install or re-install it with synaptic or aptitude any ideas?? [23:28] hip hip parrrry [23:28] erUSUL: am i supposed to install grub2 [23:28] sebsebseb: yes, i do have the iso, but I'm trying to check the actual CD that I burned, can I md5sum the live CD while running live ubuntu? [23:28] aquachica: sorry, didn't read your last message before sending mine [23:28] wow, the name are not showing up where they are suppose to be.. [23:28] tado: That's okay. [23:28] ak47: Are you sure? zcat[1] is right - I forgot to tell you to make /home so you can mount the partition there :\ [23:28] I downloaded the package from Adobe [23:28] btw I think ubuntu gets more broken with every release. I am not impressed with karmic so far. [23:28] reti: no don't think so [23:29] Mike_lifeguard how i do that [23:29] BenG92: Download this and put it on the flash drive also: http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=f35887662 [23:29] i installed Tweak ubuntu and a dock already came, then afterwards i instaled avant window navigator iceroot natewiebe [23:29] ?? [23:29] aquachica: thanks anyway. it's already a lot better [23:29] tado: It's one of those things that you have to wait to have it fixed. I am not a big fan on it. [23:29] reti: if you have the ISO, md5sum the ISO that you have, and also do the psyical CD check on the CD you burnt [23:29] tado: I am glad to hear that. [23:29] ak47: Did you reboot already? Are you sure the /home partition is mounted properly? [23:29] Hi, I have a problem with java rmiregistry after update to karmic. [23:29] reti: on the running Live CD you can mdsum the ISO [23:29] How can I get windows 7 to see my samba shares on my ubuntu computer? [23:29] i'm coming from a Mac background, what is the app best suited to convert an m4a to mp3? [23:29] skooz: sorry the gru2 factoid was not meant for you. i made a mistake and confused you. really sorry [23:29] Flakeparadigm: ##windows [23:29] enatom_: cool.. but i prefer using gnome-do for a dock.. it works great [23:29] BenG92: Name that file "broadcom_firmware.sh" [23:29] how do I get swap out of read only mode? [23:30] Mike_lifeguard ya i'have all my settings back and files [23:30] !ogg | Zer0reZ [23:30] Zer0reZ: 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 [23:30] ok [23:30] ak47: OK, I guess it worked then :) [23:30] BUT something not right.

[23:30] Mike_lifeguard, it have ! symbol when i open gpart [23:30] brunoscunha: yes they do usaulley, but not always [23:30] sebsebseb, you can download the md5sum and then right click and open the md5sum to look at what it's going to look for ... and there's no DVD because that md5sum is only for CD-Rom Iso's not DVD's [23:30] erUSUL: the version from their dev channel? [23:30] BenG92: Then on your networkless machine copy all of those file to the desktop and run "sudo sh Desktop/broadcom_firmware.sh" [23:31] I remove pulse, and use this command sudo alsa force-reload and receive this response: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/rogerio/.gvfs [23:31] Output information may be incomplete.

I am using the new 9.10 version, clean install [23:41] rogerio, there, should be easier to find me now lol [23:41] erUSUL: sorry it was the /boot partition that is read-only... but the mount shows it as rw [23:41] AphisOne: that's the root filesystem. linux mounts filesystem read only when it finds an error in them during boot. boot into a livecd and pass a fsck to the filesystems to see what's going on [23:41] AphisOne: s/root/boot/ then [23:41] <_PiLoT_> i can connect to the home network but not the the drives [23:41] 1 hour 40 minutes for this lol [23:42] Distribution upgrade has gotten to installing upgrades, hung after stopping bind9 -- help [23:42] !hr [23:42] Why does ubuntu still have that brown look?

Now I have to restart it before it works, each time I switch the linux machine on [23:43] On my opera why does it say I need a flashplayer but on IE it doesn't? [23:43] MrKlown: and?

[23:43] RenatoSilva: Because we are boring people who like boring skins? Don't worry, you can easily change it. I recommend gnome-look.org [23:43] MrKlown: [23:43] gentooiste47: np [23:43] http://pastebin.com/m6a520d4d i checkd syslog and maybe this is why my comp is freezing? [23:44] oh [23:44] iceroot, any other sugesstions? [23:44] RenatoSilva: i am not really sure 'how' to do it, i am new to ubuntu, just saying that you 'can' lol [23:44] aliencoder: and you installed from? [23:44] aliencoder: the flashplugin i mean [23:44] hi folks, after upgrading from jaunty to karmic yesterday, all of my windows no longer have their application icon, which is to say, the icon in the upper-left corner of every window is a grey circle rather than the icon for the application; googling around hasn't helped and this doesn't seem to be a common issue (checked the release notes yesterday and didn't see anything); any ideas? [23:44] <_PiLoT_> can anyone help me, i can connect to my home network buti cant get access to the dhared hdds [23:44] google is ur friend ;-) [23:44] ok, I come back in a minute (just a time to reboot my computer) [23:45] Spoom: i like the circle more [23:45] iceroot, from Adobe's page [23:45] erUSUL: I need to make another LiveCD [23:45] !google | ik3 [23:45] ik3: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. [23:45] RenatoSilva: You can ask here [23:45] aliencoder: why not using the repo version? [23:45] Mike_lifeguard: actually it's changed already, and I wouldn't call it that easy. The brown thing is in a few places, and I'm asking this now just because Karmic stupidly removed my login theme and replaced it with that default login screen which is brown (!) and which I can't find a way to change [23:45] <_PiLoT_> was that directed at my ik3 [23:45] they didn't have a version for 9.10 just 8.04 [23:45] Guest18457, well, at least i'm not the only one seeing this issue [23:45] iceroot, didn't think of that, it automatically took me to their webpage [23:45] aliencoder: you install flash for 8.04 on 9.10? [23:45] MrKlown: ah ok, good to know [23:45] RenatoSilva: gdm login screen was rewritten - I'm not sure how or if it supports skinning at present. I guess you can downgrade [23:45] AphisOne: ahh ok. any modern linux livecd (the ubuntu desktop version) would do [23:46] iceroot, yeah, I know too late now :-( [23:46] Mike_lifeguard: are you an ubuntu developer? [23:46] Guest18457, do you know how to get the theme to show the application icons? i've looked through the appearance settings and it doesn't appear that there's an option for it [23:46] RenatoSilva: no [23:46] hi guys [23:46] Pulseaudio bug fix didn't work for me. Sound Preferences still doesn't see my hardware. When I select Alsa and test, I do get a beep. [23:46] sorry bot u r right :P [23:46] Spoom: no sorry i'm a noob trying to figure out how to change my screen resolution [23:46] the network icon is broken man.. it shows unplugged [23:46] Mike_lifeguard: downgrade the whole system just to solve the brown thing? I'd rather use Windows [23:46] hello my fellow ubuntu users [23:46] erUSUL: I have a Ubuntu 8.10 LiveCD [23:47] hi, can someone recommend a nvidia pci express 512 or better video card linux ready? [23:47] i'm quite pleased with the new version [23:47] aquachica, if you do get a beep then it should woprk. just disregard sound prefferences [23:47] can this cause the system to freeze? Nov 1 18:25:49 ubuntu gdm-simple-greeter[1104]: devkit-power-gobject-WARNING: Error invoking GetAll() to get properties: The name org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Power was not provided by any .service files [23:47] they recommend my to compile the new rtorrent version and that's not the bast way in ubuntu i think ! :s is there another way to get the last rtorrent , [23:47] whta is the dev channel for ubuntu? the other channels [23:47] I just installed karmic, and grub doesn't boot the system. I wasn't asked anything in the install, so don't know what happened. [23:47] RenatoSilva: No, downgrade just that bit [23:47] Is it a newer grub? [23:47] Hello, can anyone help me? When I try to move a window, it freezes my computer. Why? [23:47] it really tailored to newbies like me [23:47] AphisOne: that would do [23:47] How do I tell nautilus to always open up rar-files with a special command? Just %s doesn't cut it. Specifically, it's something like 'program -option *.rar | program -'. [23:47] aquachica, get the gnome alsa mixer out of the repository for control [23:47] johnfg, yes grub 2.0 i hear [23:47] TheCheeze: The problem is that I still do not hear audio when I play files. [23:47] Is there not a menu.lst any more? [23:47] Mike_lifeguard: the gdm package? I don't know if canonical will support the old gdm in Karmic [23:47] aquachica, gotcha. did you try changing the hardware profiles? [23:47] johnfg: not at grub2 [23:47] Can anyone help me or what? [23:47] iceroot, problem is I can't even open the .deb package it fails [23:48] TheCheeze: How do I do both? [23:48] OMG, pidgin is making me mad, it keeps messing up with the scrolling [23:48] RenatoSilva: I'm sure they don't, but that doesn't mean you can't do it :) [23:48] !grub2 | johnfg [23:48] johnfg: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [23:48] when i type 'rdesktop infid-pc' it just hangs for a couple minutes then says it couldnt connect, but this is on my LAN and i have remote desktop enabled in vista. any ideas? [23:48] can sone one PLEASE help me? with the new kernel on karmic the boot screen drops out and starts flickering like crazy, i can't get to a terminal to do anything about it [23:48] aquachica, and what sound card do you have? [23:48] JoeSomebody- nvidia 8600 or higher [23:48] <_PiLoT_> can anyone help me i can connect to my home network but cant get access to the share hdds. its mentions something about getting a list of shared files from the server [23:48] aliencoder: but it was correctly installed? [23:48] TheCheeze: HDA Intel [23:48] johnfg: Karmic uses grub2, but it doesn't automatically upgrade grub when upgrading releases. You'll have to do that yourself [23:48] lol oh wait there it goes :P [23:48] iceroot, it didn't give an error [23:48] Guest18457, ah, it's all good (also, System -> Preferences -> Display) [23:48] ok different question: how do i prevent the ugly text-log boot screen from superceding the visual one? [23:48] iceroot, though I think firefox froze, but not sure that it's the reason [23:48] Xcell thx [23:48] Mike_lifeguard: The help you gave me earlier helped [23:48] johnfg, now its called grub.cfg, same thing [23:49] Any way to disable DCC and EDID? Karmic won't boot without an attached monitor! [23:49] aquachica, in the Multimedia Systems Selector, change the "device" pulldown to other things listed there and test them all [23:49] Manifest1: Great! thanks for letting me know :D [23:49] aliencoder: use dpkg -r packagename without .deb [23:49] iceroot, and when I checked in about:plugins in firefox it didn't show up [23:49] JoeSomebody- newegg.com [23:49] Mike_lifeguard: No problem, now I just need to fix the problem with the windows :( [23:49] yep :) [23:49] Spoom: thanks, but there is more drama involved -- the resolution is not listed, so I have to make an xorg.conf, but the tools for doing this aren't working, etc. [23:49] Guest18457, ah, that's always fun... i think i remember doing that when i first moved to ubuntu [23:49] iceroot, dpkg: error processing adobe-flashplugin (--remove): [23:49] Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should [23:49] reinstall it before attempting a removal.
