| prower | insm0d: He's going to say yes anyway, I'm guessing he didn't get the answers he wanted in other channels and he's just making up the Linux excuse as an attempt to get help here | 00:07 |
| xfire8 | insm0d : yes | 00:07 |

| lizzy | is that making sense, yes I think it's some kind of ssh tunnel | 00:26 |
| n8tuser | mikeru all process running in linux should have an entry in ps. do ps aux | 00:26 |

| lstarnes | Blizzerand: it's grub.cfg | 00:37 |
| lstarnes | Blizzerand: look for /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 00:37 |
| Blizzerand | lstarnes : thanks | 00:37 |
| MenZa | lstarnes: erm. | 00:37 |
| MenZa | lstarnes: Isn't editing that manually supposed to be the ultimate sin? | 00:37 |
| MenZa | hence the big "# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE!" in it? | 00:37 |
| MenZa | (I don't have a Karmic box to confirm that, ftr) | 00:38 |
| lstarnes | MenZa: I didn't see that in 8.04's menu.lst, so something may have changed in 9.10 | 00:38 |
| MenZa | lstarnes: No, as of 9.10, editing is probably the worst thing you can do to the config file | 00:38 |
| lovre | Flannel: removing the right package did the trick along with some manual cleaning... thanx | 00:38 |
| MenZa | It's not supposed to be edited manually, at all | 00:38 |
| bman | never edit ubuntu | 00:39 |

| mbrigdan | Is there a reason that upgrading to 9.10 wants to remove selinux and install apache? I really don't want apache... | 00:40 |
| MenZa | lstarnes: Welcome. Are you on Karmic? | 00:40 |
| test34 | so many config file write # DO NOT MANUALLY EDIT , but most of the time it isn't a big deal if you do | 00:40 |
| MenZa | test34: in GRUB2's case, I'm told it is. | 00:40 |
| beilabs | mbrigdan, they are two completely different things! | 00:40 |
| lstarnes | MenZa: not yet. I'll likely switch to it once I can be bugged to upgrade from 8.04 or I might just wait for 10.04 | 00:40 |
| test34 | MenZa, this is what is confusing, maybe they should use a binary format? | 00:40 |
| MenZa | test34: I have no idea why that is, but I'm not going to push my luck when it comes to my bootloader. | 00:41 |
| prower | lstarnes: I would highly, highly recommend the wait option in that case | 00:41 |
| mbrigdan | beilabs: yeah. Those are two sperate things its trying to do, for seemingly no reason | 00:41 |
| lstarnes | prower: it is likely that 9.10 will be more stable in a couple months | 00:41 |
| trism | it isn't really a big deal, it is just that your changes will get overwritten every time a new kernel is installed | 00:41 |
| trism | which is probably not what you want | 00:42 |

| Shoe | Zorch, what? | 01:07 |
| ubottu | manish: 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. :-) | 01:07 |
| Docteh | between useradd and adduser one of them doesn't give me a home directory | 01:07 |
| Portunus | QUESTION - does any one know the file extension for a file that contains the data for the MYSQL database? | 01:07 |
| tonyyarusso | Docteh: I believe useradd is the simpler one. | 01:07 |
| manish | how to enable emrald theme manager | 01:07 |
| Docteh | Portunus: try .sql | 01:07 |
| Zorch | Shoe: If what I just said makes no sense then the short answer is "you can't" | 01:07 |
| tonyyarusso | Docteh: That's only for dumps. | 01:07 |
| julio | tonyyarusso: idk, apport says it can't report that kind of fails... | 01:07 |

| Portunus | tonyyarusso: alright then, thank you tony! | 01:10 |

| Agrajag- | can someone with 9.10 try reproducing this? just click on one window in the window-list in the gnome panel, the click on another without moving the mouse out of the panel. does the 2nd window you click on focus? | 01:19 |
| hazard9 | i believe so but when i run any command it doesnt show me any macs | 01:20 |
| jaysern | so Hardy -> Intrepid -> Jaunty -> Karmic ? | 01:20 |
| lstarnes | jaysern: yes | 01:20 |
| oorah | how come my usb devices are not being detected? i have an msi wind | 01:20 |
| MenZa | jaysern: Correct. | 01:20 |
| hazard9 | to be completely honest i dont know who makes the bluetooth adapter | 01:20 |
| lstarnes | jaysern: a clean install would likely be far less painful though | 01:20 |
| jaysern | i see. | 01:20 |
| major_redhat | hazard9: thats ok | 01:20 |
| lstarnes | jaysern: and less likely to fail | 01:20 |
| jaysern | do i need to reformat ? | 01:20 |
| major_redhat | hazard9: did you enable the cell phone to be discoverable? | 01:20 |
| hazard9 | well like i said earlier im a newb | 01:20 |
| jaysern | will all my data on the partition be fine ? | 01:20 |
| hazard9 | yes | 01:20 |
| MenZa | jaysern: Warty -> Hoary -> Breezy -> Dapper -> Gutsy -> Hardy -> Feisty -> Intrepid -> Jaunty -> Karmic (-> Lucid) to be a bit more verbose. | 01:21 |

| keiya | Also, on the Empaty bug for OTR. "Downgrading priority; there are more pressing spec issues, and I think that supporting encryption on protocols like XMPP where it can be done cleanly (rather than as misc. sent in the regular plain text stream) is a higher priority." | 01:30 |
| keiya | This means you can not yet send messages | 01:30 |

| ChrisOnFacebook | This is the one I have now... | 01:34 |
| netbooker | Out_Cold, well why remove the ability to change the GDM theme? | 01:34 |
| MenZa | Pidgin is still available, and the major point which made the developer base change to Empathy was its audio/video support. | 01:34 |
| hazard9 | how do you exit out of man | 01:34 |
| suleman | Flannel, we never pay for any softwares | 01:34 |

| drawde_ | i'm running ubuntu minimal 9.04.. is there a way to go back to the beginning as if i just installed? i've been playing with it but i wanna go back as if i didn't do anything yet without having to reinstall | 01:35 |
| suleman | i got only matlab for windows in the CD | 01:35 |
| drawde_ | ubuntu's servers are slow tonight, gonna take forever to reinstall | 01:35 |
| netbooker | insm0d, I think I'm going to go to Fedora (when 12 comes out) or back to Debian | 01:36 |
| MenZa | netbooker: You're always welcome to find a different distro, or participate in the decision-making process. | 01:36 |
| Out_Cold | drawde_, without redoing everything you did in reverse, no... fresh install it | 01:36 |
| major_redhat | i hate to say it but i still run 8.04 | 01:36 |
| Flannel | suleman: With your key you should be able to download it from the Mathworks website. | 01:36 |
| lmartin92 | can you install on a software raid array from the desktop livecd? | 01:36 |
| hazard9 | so if i were to man | why does nothing show up | 01:36 |
| netbooker | MenZa, I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything about it, but more and more the "community" seems to be jerky to me | 01:36 |
| prower | major_redhat: What's wrong with that? :> If it works it works | 01:36 |
| insm0d | yes major_redhat, I've been using linux for about 7 years and didn't mind tweaking it, but lately I want it to work the way I want and that require A LOT of configuration now | 01:36 |
| mirc-drifter | hey every1 i installed windows 7 and now ubuntu wont boot anymore | 01:36 |
| Swian | personally netbooker, I've tried a lot of distros and ubuntu has had the best hardware support | 01:36 |
| suleman | Flannel, key that i get in the matlab for windows cd? | 01:36 |
| MenZa | !fixgrub | mirc-drifter | 01:36 |
| ubottu | mirc-drifter: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 01:36 |
| Guest22682 | i think the community are communists | 01:36 |
| MenZa | mirc-drifter: I hope you've fixed your attitude, or you can't expect much help from us. | 01:37 |
| major_redhat | prower: well i tweaked it so much that it boots in roughly 20 seconds | 01:37 |
| netbooker | Swian, Most everything I tried has the support. Ubuntu just makes me have to configure everything back to a usable state. | 01:37 |
| suleman | Flannel, can u give me the link to download matlab where i can put the key | 01:37 |
| Guest22682 | the community gets mad at you if you iwant to install a firewall | 01:37 |
| Swerve | Does anyone know how one may be able to view the size of a buffer being used for a string in a C++ program? | 01:37 |
| Flannel | suleman: In all recent versions a license (for individuals--such as buying the software) gives you two concurrent installs, yes. | 01:37 |
| drawde_ | how about this, is there a ubuntu minimal where it doesn't have to downlaod everything? | 01:37 |
| Swian | netbooker, everything works for me fine, don't know what you're tweaking | 01:37 |
| Flannel | drawde_: The alternate CD | 01:37 |
| major_redhat | prower: and from what i've heard, 9.10 has boot times that are ridicoulsly longer than mine | 01:37 |
| Flannel | suleman: No, you'll have to browse the mathworks website | 01:37 |
| hazard9 | alright another dumb question is there such a thing as a batch file in linux | 01:37 |
| insm0d | mirc-drifter, that is because Windows 7 wrote over grub with it's own bootloader | 01:37 |
| MenZa | hazard9: there's shell scripts. | 01:38 |
| tophyr | init: Unable to execute "/bin/sh" for rcS: Stale NFS file handle | 01:38 |
| tophyr | init: rcS main process (780) terminated with status 255 | 01:38 |
| MenZa | hazard9: What are you trying to achieve? | 01:38 |
| Out_Cold | Guest22682, you have a firewall set by default on linux.. it's what makes it safer than winblows | 01:38 |
| tophyr | how boned am i? i see this on startup/ | 01:38 |
| suleman | Flannel, i bought a dvd, i have 2 keys,each for standalone and network computer | 01:38 |
| hazard9 | learn ubuntu\linux | 01:38 |
| Flannel | suleman: Right. That works for Windows, Linux, and OSX. | 01:38 |
| MenZa | hazard9: Well, shell scripts can do what .bat scripts do in Windows. And about everything else .bat scripts won't do. | 01:38 |
| prower | major_redhat, I haven't found boot-time in 9.10 to be all that bad to be honest, but once it actually -boots- there's plenty of other problems to deal with :P | 01:38 |
| netbooker | Swian, I'm not talking about just having it work. Mine works, but it annoys the hell out of me. They change so much. I'm not against making it easier for the non-tech user, but I also dont want to jump through hoops just to kill the X server or to do anything non point-click | 01:38 |
| insm0d | yes hazard9, it's known as a shell script. It's not exactly the same as a batch file though | 01:39 |
| tophyr | Out_Cold, windows has a firewall on by default as well. linux's strongest point in consumer safety is the fact that there aren't many virii/malware written for linux | 01:39 |
| Flannel | suleman: My DVD had all three OSs on the DVD. I suggest you contact mathworks if you have questions. But you should bebale to find it on the website. | 01:39 |
| hazard9 | i know windows pretty well now its time to become a real network/computer guy | 01:39 |
| Guest22682 | what is the default openssh config? | 01:39 |
| Swian | can't say I've had that problem netbooker, guess it depends on what you do | 01:39 |
| suleman | Flannel, i m surfing | 01:39 |
| major_redhat | prower: bootchart says i have a 16.5 second bootup time....whats the average boot time for 9.10 anyways? | 01:39 |
| hazard9 | but works along the same lines as a batch | 01:39 |
| Out_Cold | i read somewhere that a MS computer has about 45 mins from the time it's freshly installed and connected to the internet to become infected in some form | 01:40 |
| hazard9 | just like it took me some time to learn irc | 01:40 |
| suleman | Flannel, i think i can't find it | 01:40 |
| prower | major_redhat: I wouldn't be able to tell you to be honest, you might be able to find statistics online...with my machine (dual core 1.86GHz with a sad 1GB of RAM :P) it's only about...14-15 tops. | 01:40 |
| netbooker | Swian, I install the official NVIDIA drivers. Even when I want to change the GDM theme, they took that option out | 01:40 |
| hazard9 | i want to understand as much as possible | 01:40 |
| === cdr is now known as Guest15080 | ||

| courpse | Out_Cold, The process starts when you put the windows disk in your drive. | 01:40 |
| tophyr | courpse lol | 01:40 |
| suleman | and at last it asks for my credit card number of sth. | 01:40 |
| insm0d | hazard9, shell scripting is sort of different, but basically if you can use the shell to do useful stuff, you just put the commands you would normally use in a shell script and execute the script | 01:40 |

| Out_Cold | courpse, agreed, but it "could" be safe if it never ever touched the internet.. | 01:41 |
| DanaG | yay for serial console! | 01:41 |
| Ashfire908 | Can you group contacts in Empathy like you could in Pidgin? | 01:41 |
| tophyr | Out_Cold more seriously, that's a gross exaggeration. almost all windows insecurities are caused by poor usage | 01:41 |
| courpse | Out_Cold, And if you had no cdrom drive after installation. | 01:41 |
| DanaG | Something randomly decided to devour all my memory, and I had to use serial console to kill it. | 01:41 |
| suleman | Flannel, i dont have an account | 01:41 |
| hazard9 | so it is a more powerful tool in other words by quite a bit | 01:41 |
| courpse | A windows box can be just as secure as a nix box, it just takes more to do it. | 01:42 |
| tophyr | blindly hitting "Ok, install this IE Addon" without using a clue of thought as to what it is, for example | 01:42 |
| insm0d | hazard9, check out this link http://freeos.com/guides/lsst/ | 01:42 |

| prower | major_redhat: ...Yeah, that's a lot of tweaking for that kind of boot time then :> Wow | 01:42 |

| insm0d | courpse, that and less have been dealbreakers for me and many | 01:45 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, you will need to set up a "local" port tunnel. | 01:45 |
| suleman | Flannel, i can c only the link to purchasse it | 01:45 |
| Swian | it's more of a performance question netbooker | 01:45 |

| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, this command will open a tunnel to the remote machine on VNC's port. ssh -L [port]:127.0.0.1:5900 user@host Then connect to your client machine (127.0.0.1) with vnc to [port]. (replace [port] with a port, if not sure, 56200 is fine) | 02:00 |

I'm unable to install Firefox addons (I get an error 228), for about 5 minutes I wasn't able to access google.com and instead I was being redirected to some weird site, and now when I try to go to some sites Firefox treats it like a file and asks me if I should open or save it. Can anyone help because this is getting really annoying. | 02:03 |
| Ashfire908 | Mike9863, firefox -228? | 02:03 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: whats the user@host part the login to my serverside? | 02:04 |
| Mike9863 | Ashfire908: I get error 228 when I try to install addons | 02:04 |

| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: so if i run this command on my server side i can get my servers desktop? | 02:06 |
| Ashfire908 | Mike9863, I don't know what's causing it and I don't think I can help you narrow it down, but from experence that's the stuff proxies can do to your internet. | 02:06 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, no, run the command client-side. | 02:06 |

| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: but the ip of my server is 192.18.0.3 | 02:08 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, heh I wanted you to replace user and host with the appropriate values. | 02:09 |
| randomusr | which is the best sound server; Pulseaudio, oss, or alsa? | 02:09 |
| Ashfire908 | randomusr, alsa and oss are not sound servers, they deal with the actual hardware. | 02:10 |
| randomusr | Ashfire908, what is the sound server in linux then? | 02:10 |
| hawke | pulseaudio or esd | 02:10 |
| hawke | among others | 02:11 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: it says bad local forwarding specification | 02:11 |
| Ashfire908 | randomusr, also, to my knoledge, oss is legacy. pulseaudio is the sound server. pulseaudio replaced esd in ubuntu | 02:11 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, one sec. | 02:11 |
| randomusr | Ashfire908, why is it so difficult to get sound that responds like it does in windows? | 02:12 |
| aperson | Guest22682, I looked around ekiga and couldn't find anything related to setting the hsv of the camera | 02:12 |
| randomusr | volume is never really accurate and varies greatly from program to program | 02:12 |
| Ashfire908 | randomusr, Pulseaudio has issues because it's relativaly new, or if you meant why it's different, it's cause you are not on windows. | 02:13 |
| Guest22682 | aperson: i know it changes the white balance just turn on the camera and click the settings icon next to the camera on/off icon | 02:13 |
| Ashfire908 | randomusr, ignore last message | 02:13 |
| xguru_ | i don't have sound in karmic....any ideas? | 02:13 |
| Ashfire908 | randomusr, I don't know. | 02:13 |
| randomusr | Ashfire908, I know I'm using linux, bu sheesh | 02:13 |
| Vashta_Nerada | Hi guys! To run a basic http site can I just install ubuntu server with apache2 and not bother with MySQL and Perl/Python/PHP. Or do I Have to install one or all, and why? In other words, to run a http server must I always use LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL and Perl/Python/PHP)? | 02:13 |
| aperson | Guest22682, I can't just turn my camera on | 02:14 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, did you replace [port] in the command with something like 56200? | 02:14 |
| aperson | Vashta_Nerada, just install apache2 | 02:14 |
| cody__ | Hello. Im trying to uninstall the flash plugin. I type sudo apt-get remove -f adobe-flashplugin. It always "Exited with status 2" What is wrong? | 02:14 |
| randomusr | Ashfire908, could it have to do with the way pulseaudio communicates with the hardware through the drivers for my audio device? | 02:14 |
| aperson | Vashta_Nerada, no need for the rest if you don't want it | 02:14 |
| Ashfire908 | randomusr, sorry, ignore that one message. Pulseaudio is new, and I think not all the kinks are worked out yet. | 02:14 |
| RyanD | Vashta_Nerada: I don't know why you wouldn't though. | 02:15 |
| Guest22682 | aperson: change the device setting for ekiga to use it | 02:15 |
| aperson | Guest22682, it is set to my webcam, iirc | 02:15 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: yes and it says 200 is bad local forwarding spec | 02:15 |
| Ashfire908 | randomusr, for pulseaudio, this is how it works: program (sound)-> pulseaudio -> alsa -> hardware | 02:15 |
| felo0315 | quien habla español??? | 02:15 |
| Guest22682 | aperson: iirc? | 02:16 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, 1-1024 is reserved for root (which is why i recommended something like 56200 | 02:16 |

| aperson | Guest22682, if I recall correctly | 02:16 |
| Guest22682 | aperson: unplug it and plug it back in then try and turn it on | 02:16 |

| haitiankid4lyf | autodidakt: works for me | 02:30 |
| Donavan01 | haitiankid4lyf : are you running any other os? | 02:30 |
| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, that is, if you're doing a separate /home/ | 02:30 |
| szudo44 | how can i change deb-sr to deb-src | 02:30 |
| Ashfire908 | pythoneer, not natively... | 02:31 |
| haitiankid4lyf | aperson: yeah also how big should /boot be also ext2 3 4? | 02:31 |
| aperson | pythoneer, the first four work in wine iirc | 02:31 |
| haitiankid4lyf | Donavan01: yeah ill have either xp or 7 with it | 02:31 |
| bastidrazor | szudo44: in a terminal type: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:31 |
| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, you don't really need to specify those separately | 02:31 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: so if i wasnt local i can also do this provided i know my public ip and have the [port] open on firewall? | 02:31 |
| szudo44 | bastidrazor :then after that? | 02:31 |
| Donavan01 | haitiankid4lyf : how big is your drive | 02:31 |
| Colonel_Panik_ | pythoneer, which is better for gaming XBox or PS3 or Vista(XP and Windows included) | 02:31 |
| haitiankid4lyf | aperson: will i still be able to recover grub if i dont? | 02:31 |
| haitiankid4lyf | Donavan01: 1tb | 02:32 |
| Ashfire908 | pythoneer, you could dual-boot linux and windows and use windows for gaming, or you could use wine or simialr things. | 02:32 |
| pythoneer | Win 7 | 02:32 |
| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, yessir | 02:32 |
| bastidrazor | szudo44: that opens an editor. change the file and save. | 02:32 |
| bieb | anyone here know how to connect a Creative Zen Touch with Ubuntu 9.10 so I can transfer mp3 file to and from the device? | 02:32 |
| courpse | pythoneer, Yout kidding me right? | 02:32 |
| courpse | Win7 is best for gaming? | 02:32 |
| haitiankid4lyf | do i need swap? | 02:32 |
| pythoneer | yeah latest directx | 02:32 |
| Donavan01 | haitiankid4lyf : I would give ubuntu atleast 10% of that drive should be a problem with a TB | 02:32 |
| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, the only good reason I can think of for putting /boot on it's own is if you're really tweaking for boot speed | 02:32 |
| bastidrazor | szudo44: in a terminal type: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade ..after making the changes | 02:32 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, and the port forwarded on your route (unless you are directly connected to the net) | 02:32 |
| courpse | I dont think your a hardcore gamer, :/ | 02:32 |
| Donavan01 | *shouldnt | 02:32 |
| pythoneer | sure XP runs faster | 02:33 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: so this encrypts the vino traffic? | 02:33 |
| pythoneer | but I like 7 | 02:33 |
| aperson | well, there is a #windows for a reason | 02:33 |
| haitiankid4lyf | Donavan01: "should be a probleam" or shouldn't? | 02:33 |
| Donavan01 | 7 and xp run about the same | 02:33 |
| Ashfire908 | guest22682 i bumped enter, one sec | 02:33 |
| Donavan01 | haitiankid4lyf : shouldn't | 02:33 |
| Colonel_Panik_ | pythoneer, what good is an X Box then? | 02:33 |
| nolan__ | why are you talking about windows here this is blasphemy | 02:33 |
| haitiankid4lyf | hehe scared me for a second Donavan01 | 02:34 |
| pythoneer | This is MADNESS! | 02:34 |
| Donavan01 | haitiankid4lyf : that would give you about 100gb which would be plenty | 02:34 |
| pythoneer | Madness? | 02:34 |
| pythoneer | THIS IS WINDOWS! | 02:34 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, yes and no. You need to forward the ssh port on your router (unless you are directly connected to the net) to your system (the server). | 02:34 |
| aperson | !windows | 02:34 |

| BloodyIron | hi, my sound stopped working after killing VLC, it wont come back up after reboots. can i get some help with this please? | 02:34 |
| Guest22682 | jayne: booy pythoneer he is trolling about windows in ubuntu support | 02:34 |
| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, not for most people | 02:34 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, tunneling ssh will encrypt the data being tunneling, so yes. | 02:35 |
| Colonel_Panik_ | I am hard core Linux and I think Linux is for computing and game machines are for games thats all. | 02:35 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: so what is the advantage of creating a gpg key using seahorse for ssh? | 02:35 |
| somyb | i used to connect to net with pppoeconf as there was a bug in the gnome-network manager .now after i updated the network manger i cannot use it .it shows network not managed.can any one help? | 02:36 |
| gvd | hello, I am trying to set up tangerine media sharing, and I am hitting all sorts of problems. I am new to ubuntu. I installed the application with no problem. Then, when I go to set up the preferences, the application does not launch. I tried launching the application from whatever the ubuntu equivelant to the finder is and I get the archive manager. I tried launching the .exe from the terminal with no luck. I hit an error: "Un | 02:36 |
| Donavan01 | im trying to get my ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix on to my USB flash drive but the USB creator on the ISO doesnt seem to work and my Linux machine is down (the reason for the question) so Im stuck with windows | 02:36 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, techinally, none. You don't use a gpg key for ssh. You use an ssh key for ssh. | 02:36 |
| plut0 | just installed 9.10 with encryption and it won't boot, /dev/mapper/crypt1p1 does not exist, any idea how to fix this? | 02:36 |
| joam | is it ok to use both gnome keyring and kde wallet (separately) on the same system? | 02:36 |
| gvd | does anyone have any thoughts on what that is or how to fix it | 02:36 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: so there is no point in making an SSH key? | 02:37 |
| aperson | gvd: what's the error the program spits out when you run it in the terminal? | 02:37 |
| prower | joam: Well yes, but you'll likely wind up with two sets of passwords stored in two separate places | 02:37 |
| bastidrazor | Guest22682: if you want passwordless ssh, or key authentication.. then yes there is a point. | 02:37 |
| szudo44 | bastidrazor :thank u very much it worked | 02:37 |
| somyb | i used to connect to net with pppoeconf as there was a bug in the gnome-network manager .now after i updated the network manger i cannot use it .it shows network not managed.can any one help? | 02:37 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: this isnt sending my system pass unsecured is it before the wormhole is established | 02:37 |
| aperson | gvd: you can always try to sudo aptitude purge <programname> then aptitude clean, then re-install it | 02:37 |
| BloodyIron | hi, my sound stopped working after killing VLC, it wont come back up after reboots. can i get some help with this please? | 02:38 |
| bastidrazor | szudo44: good luck with your apt-getting. | 02:38 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, i can't type as fast as you. | 02:38 |
| szudo44 | ya thanks | 02:38 |
| BELLINXFELON | how can i upgrade my distro through terminal | 02:38 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: whay whats wrong disability? | 02:38 |
| bastidrazor | !upgrade | BELLINXFELON | 02:38 |
| ubottu | BELLINXFELON: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 02:38 |
| bigjocker | BELLINXFELON, sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade | 02:38 |
| haitiankid4lyf | aperson: should i have a swap? | 02:39 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, among some pluses to having your own key (i don't know them), you can add the key to the ssh agent with your password and you will not need to keep entering your password. (the whole agent thing is transparent on ubuntu.) | 02:39 |
| plut0 | just installed 9.10 with encryption and it won't boot, /dev/mapper/crypt1p1 does not exist, any idea how to fix this? | 02:39 |
| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, how much ram do you have, generally yes. If you want hibernation, yes. | 02:39 |
| bastidrazor | haitiankid4lyf: do you plan on hibernating or suspending your computer? | 02:39 |
| aperson | bastidrazor, suspend does not use swap iirc | 02:39 |
| bilingual | Hello all | 02:39 |
| somyb | ok i unistalled it but to no avail | 02:39 |
| haitiankid4lyf | aperson: 4 | 02:39 |
| j2daosh | hey all | 02:39 |
| Tommer | I have a tricky problem. | 02:39 |
| Tommer | I bound the "r" key to a function in the configuration editor and when I unbound it, the key didn't return to it's original function (it didn't print r)I have a tricky problem. | 02:39 |
| Tommer | I bound the "r" key to a function in the configuration editor and when I unbound it, the key didn't return to it's original function (it didn't print r) | 02:39 |
| haitiankid4lyf | bastidrazor: yeah | 02:39 |
| FloodBot2 | Tommer: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:39 |
| gvd | aperson, i did uninstall the application and reinstall but keep hitting the same issue. I'm assuming from what I have gathered, that the .exe has a gui and everything, but I don't know how to launch it. I keep getting to the archiver | 02:40 |
| Ashfire908 | Guest22682, no, just not as fast. when logging into ssh, the encryption is set up before authencation and data passes, so no. | 02:40 |
| Guest22682 | Ashfire908: i see so the plus is not having to type passwords good to know thanks | 02:40 |

| funkiwan | How can I, via keyboard, navigate and select among the "Show list of known applications" in the "Run Application" dialog? | 02:40 |
| bastidrazor | aperson: from my understanding it is the other way around.. hibernation uses disk space and suspend uses RAM | 02:40 |
| bilingual | wow, alot are chatting I see | 02:40 |

| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, that's what I was saying | 02:40 |
| j2daosh | im kinda stuck here. I am running an edubuntu virtual server that I installed about 2 years ago. | 02:40 |
| aperson | err | 02:40 |
| funkiwan | currently, it seems i have to tab a bunch of times until the list has focus. there has got to be a better way. | 02:40 |
| haitiankid4lyf | aperson: bastidrazor what would be an optimal size? | 02:40 |
| bastidrazor | haitiankid4lyf: then you need at most 2GB .. more isn't really needed. | 02:40 |
| aperson | that was for bastidrazor | 02:40 |
| haitiankid4lyf | oh ok | 02:40 |
| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, twice your ram is recommended | 02:40 |
| j2daosh | Linux EdUbuntu 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux | 02:40 |
| j2daosh | i need to get updated, but i cant seem to because all the old sources have changed ip's or something | 02:41 |
| Tommer | I have a tricky problem. I bound the "r" key to a function in the configuration editor and when I unbound it, the key didn't return to it's original function (it didn't print r) | 02:41 |
| haitiankid4lyf | aperson: what happens when i upgrade my ram | 02:41 |
| bilingual | I just installed the new ubuntu 9.11 and I just wanted to know is there a way to change the color, I don't like that coffee color. | 02:41 |
| j2daosh | where can I get a new sources list so I can do a dist-upgrade? | 02:41 |
| aperson | gvd, first off, they aren't .exe's :) second, did you purge or just uninstall? | 02:41 |
| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, don't worry about it | 02:41 |
| bastidrazor | j2daosh: that method is very unstable and will break your system. use this link instead | 02:41 |
| LordQuackstar | I am attempting to repair a broken mp3 player: In windows it freezes my computer for 10 minuites and ubuntu says can't read superblock. fsck says root dir starts with a bad cluster. Is their anyway to repair it? | 02:42 |
| bastidrazor | !upgrade | j2daosh | 02:42 |
| ubottu | j2daosh: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 02:42 |
| aperson | haitiankid4lyf, just set some swap and don't worry | 02:42 |
| LordQuackstar | (without reformat) | 02:42 |
| aperson | !swap | haitiankid4lyf | 02:42 |
| ubottu | haitiankid4lyf: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 02:42 |
| haitiankid4lyf | aperson: :) thanks | 02:42 |
| Ashfire908 | j2daosh, you gave your kernel version, not your version of edubuntu. | 02:42 |
| Tommer | I've got a tricky issue | 02:42 |
| Dravekx | Ubuntu Desktop cant see my wireless card. why? | 02:42 |
| Tommer | I bound the "r" key to a function in the configuration editor and when I unbound it, the key didn't return to it's original function (it didn't print r) | 02:42 |
| gvd | aperson: yeah i just did an uninstall, so I should do a purge. And it isn't like an executeable on a win machine | 02:43 |
| funkiwan | bilingual: right click on the desktop, "Change Desktop Background" | 02:43 |
| Ashfire908 | !repeat | Tommer | 02:43 |
| ubottu | Tommer: 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. | 02:43 |
| Scamz19 | hey whats up | 02:43 |
| Colonel_Panik_ | Tommer, try binding the r key to r. Just a thought? | 02:43 |
| j2daosh | also, im running at 2600x1600 or something but my screen is too small for that. How do I change the screen size? (its kde) | 02:43 |
| angelus | hi does anyone know where the mouse Preferences are stored ??? (i cant seem to set the "Show pointer or ctrl click", everytime i try to ckeckmark it, it flashes once ... and then goes back to being unchecked) | 02:43 |
| Tommer | I couldn't figure out how to do that | 02:43 |
| Tommer | but thanks | 02:43 |
| fu_manchu | hi | 02:43 |
| aperson | gvd, we don't use exe's, anything can be executable, file extension doesn't matter. a purge will remove configs also | 02:43 |
| Dravekx | Why cant Ubuntu detect my wireless card? | 02:43 |
| fu_manchu | i'm on this old hp with ubuntu on it | 02:43 |
| bilingual | funkiwan, I not talking about the back groud but the color of the theme, it's not in the skins neither. I like blue or something other then chocolate | 02:44 |
| aurynn | so I have a 20" lcd and a 24" lcd | 02:44 |
| fu_manchu | left click on the icon near the time? | 02:44 |
| aurynn | ubuntu refuses to boot if the 20" is plugged in, but will boot if the 24" is plugged in | 02:44 |
| nolan__ | @Dravekx have you installed the proprietary drivers via the hardware drivers utility | 02:44 |
| aurynn | ati graphics, running fglrx 9.10 | 02:44 |
| aurynn | any ideas? | 02:44 |
| roland- | hey, is there an alternate install for the latest ubuntu | 02:44 |
| roland- | ? | 02:44 |
| aperson | !alternate | 02:45 |
| ubottu | 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 | 02:45 |
| bilingual | roland, download wubi | 02:45 |
| aperson | hmm | 02:45 |
| funkiwan | bilingual: aside from the background, one of the tabs when you select "Change Desktop Background" should be "Theme" | 02:45 |
| gvd | aperson: oh ok, that shows how much I know. so I would do sudo aptitude purge tangerine and then aptitude clean and that should get it all out? | 02:45 |
| aperson | wubi != alternate | 02:45 |
| bilingual | that's what I did today to get what I have now | 02:45 |
| criss | okay i got to installl Googel earth by using the sh command okay because its just one bin file now ... how do i install firefox and thunderbird after downloading them directly from mozilla website? | 02:45 |
| criss | HELP! | 02:45 |
| aperson | gvd, the clean probably isn't necessary | 02:45 |
| haitiankid4lyf | doesnt firefox come in a .deb | 02:46 |
| Othello | and why did you downloaded directly? | 02:46 |
| nolan__ | just install them from the add remove utility or synaptic or get the .deb files and double click them | 02:46 |
| aperson | criss, you'd want to get the .deb or install from the repos | 02:46 |
| bilingual | <funkiwan> I did that, but the themes in there are not what I'm looking for, how do I install other ones. | 02:46 |
| fu_manchu | i installed the .deb of thunderbird, afaik | 02:46 |
| Othello | they're available in the repositories | 02:46 |
| gvd | aperson: ok, I'll try that thank you | 02:46 |
| funkiwan | bilingual: there's a "get more themes online" option. did you try that? | 02:46 |
| criss | okay where do i get the newest .deb? for firefox and thunderbird? | 02:46 |
| bilingual | let me see | 02:47 |
| Othello | criss, if you really need to get them straight from the mozilla website, try getting a .deb package | 02:47 |
| aperson | gvd: no problem. I'll be around on this server if you need anything else. or there's always #ubuntu | 02:47 |
| courpse | criss, sudo apt-get install firefox | 02:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | criss, FYI googleearth is in the Medibuntu repository if you add it -- it's better to use programs from repositories then bin files you download - this way they get updated! | 02:47 |
| criss | kewl guys lemme have a look | 02:47 |
| Othello | yeah, or just doble-click on it, if it is a .deb pkg criss | 02:47 |
| criss | k | 02:47 |
| j2daosh | ok, to the guy that gave me a link, that link doesn;t work | 02:47 |
| j2daosh | all the sources i have in my sources list are dead | 02:48 |

| plut0 | just installed 9.10 with encryption and it won't boot, /dev/mapper/crypt1p1 does not exist, any idea how to fix this? | 02:53 |
| Dravekx | How do I connect Ubuntu Desktop to Ubuntu server? | 02:53 |
| Roasted | Does anybody know how I can get the default 9.10 theme on 9.04? | 02:53 |
| Ashfire908 | aurynn, did you try switching which monitor is plugged in where? | 02:53 |
| weweboom | Colonel_Panik wouldn't a synaptic search answer that? | 02:53 |
| leaf-sheep | aurynn: Nothing in particular. In my situation, I'm one of the people with a sucky monitor that make it difficult for machines to identify what monitor model/resolution/etc I'm using. | 02:53 |
| fu_manchu | i do have that' | 02:53 |
| funkiwan | bilingual: awesome | 02:53 |
| fu_manchu | plut0, does it say something about the floppy? | 02:53 |
| weweboom | Colonel_Panik no it doesn't | 02:53 |
| weweboom | get the .deb from their website | 02:53 |
| aurynn | Ashfire908, yes, no change | 02:53 |
| plut0 | no | 02:53 |
| fu_manchu | it might be the beta grub bootloader | 02:54 |
| Colonel_Panik_ | aperson, I'll go looking then I guess I need multiverse enabled eh? | 02:54 |
| plut0 | is there a fix? | 02:54 |
| fu_manchu | yeah | 02:54 |
| Ashfire908 | aurynn, when does it stop booting? | 02:54 |
| plut0 | ok... | 02:54 |
| aurynn | Ashfire908, Just after the first grub message. | 02:54 |
| fu_manchu | a line of code need to be removed | 02:54 |
| plut0 | got a link? | 02:54 |
| aperson | Colonel_Panik_, yeah, it's there | 02:54 |
| aperson | Colonel_Panik_, at least in 9.10 | 02:54 |
| gvd | aperson, ok so I did the purge and reinstalled. I am still hitting the same problem. I can't seem to get to the preferences to set up the sharing. do you have any ideas | 02:55 |
| Dravekx | Is there a way to link Ubuntu Desktop to a Ubuntu Server? | 02:55 |
| aperson | gvd: is it crashing yet? | 02:55 |
| Ashfire908 | Dravekx, link? | 02:55 |
| courpse | Dravekx, What do you call link | 02:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | Colonel_Panik_, to get Opera from synaptic you need to add the repo http://paste.ubuntu.com/311148/ - first line is a command to run, the second line needs to be added to your /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:55 |
| chetnick | Hello, random freezes with only mouse can moves around, but clicks and keyboard are not responsive on Ubuntu 9.04... started few days ago ... worked for almost a year no problems. What can that be? | 02:55 |
| aperson | Dravekx, what exactly do you want to do | 02:55 |
| Dravekx | like, link the files via WLAN | 02:56 |
| aperson | ZykoticK9, it's in multiverse | 02:56 |
| plut0 | fu_manchu: do you know what the fix is? | 02:56 |
| Dravekx | access the server with desktop? | 02:56 |
| courpse | Dravekx, like, a network share? | 02:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | Colonel_Panik_, or is aperson is correct - just add the multiverse (MUCH easier) | 02:56 |
| Dravekx | courpse, yes! :) | 02:56 |
| Ashfire908 | Dravekx, ssh, specifically sftp. | 02:56 |
| Roasted | Does anybody know how I can get the default 9.10 theme on 9.04? | 02:56 |
| fu_manchu | plut0, yeah | 02:57 |
| fu_manchu | let me go find it | 02:57 |
| aperson | ZykoticK9, though I'd use their repo myself :) | 02:57 |
| courpse | Dravekx, Right click a directory, select file sharing, or use server openssh. | 02:57 |
| Ashfire908 | Dravekx, sorry, network share is nfs (or samba for windows shares) | 02:57 |
| Dravekx | Ashfire908, openssh-server is installed on the server, what do i use on the desktop? | 02:57 |
| plut0 | fu_manchu: thank you | 02:57 |
| Dravekx | oh ok | 02:57 |
| aperson | Roasted, you can't iirc, different versions of the theme engine | 02:57 |
| courpse | Dravekx, terminal. | 02:57 |
| user01 | hi i just installed drupal6 how do i get to the admin page? | 02:57 |
| courpse | ssh -l username IP | 02:57 |
| Ashfire908 | Dravekx, though you can mount or whatever sftp. Use connect to server. | 02:57 |
| Dravekx | courpse!! sweet. | 02:58 |
| prower | On a positive note, despite the multitude of broken packages in 9.10...ah...nice splash screen? :> That's about all I can come up with | 02:58 |
| aperson | Dravekx, or just type in sftp:username@host in nautilus | 02:58 |
| wapko | anybody know where the info in gnome panel launchers is. i backed up my home folder from my old install. but only really need the shortcut info i had on a launcher ? | 02:58 |
| aperson | then it's just a bookmark away | 02:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | Dravekx, if your looking for an sftp GUI client gftp supports it | 02:58 |
| aperson | prower, grub2 and apt-add-repository is nice too :) | 02:58 |
| Dravekx | Ubuntu server doesnt have a GUI. | 02:59 |
| Dravekx | I didnt install one, dont want one :) | 02:59 |
| Ashfire908 | Dravekx, he meant as a client program. | 02:59 |
| courpse | Dravekx, Yes, but you can use a GUI on the desktop... | 02:59 |
| Dravekx | oh | 02:59 |
| prower | aperson: Grub2 I'm familiar with of course, but I don't know of apt-add-repository? | 02:59 |
| RPG_Master | Anyone here use Comix? | 02:59 |
| Dravekx | courpse? really??? now that would be nice. | 02:59 |
| aperson | prower, no more adding keys for ppa's, apt can do it for you now | 02:59 |
| j2daosh | dumb question while I wait on the upgrade, how do I change the console colors? im using irssi and the light teal and white background is kickin my butt | 02:59 |
| prower | aperson: Ahh, now that -is- nice actually, thanks for pointing that out...I'll have to read the man page | 03:00 |
| aperson | prower: ie: sudo apt-add-repository chromium-daily/ppa | 03:00 |
| RPG_Master | Anyone? | 03:00 |
| courpse | Dravekx, Meaning the directorys via gFTP. | 03:00 |
| plut0 | fu_manchu: heres the error: http://pastebin.com/m1a4491fa | 03:00 |
| Veinor | j2daosh: edit -> profile | 03:00 |
| Veinor | or something like that | 03:00 |
| Dravekx | courpse, in desktop, I go to Places/Connect to Server? | 03:00 |
| Veinor | uncheck 'use system theme' and pick the 'white on black' one or something | 03:00 |
| roland- | just installed ubuntu on a virtualbox and it seems to have very poor video performance | 03:01 |
| aperson | Dravekx, that or just open up nautilus and type in sftp://user@host | 03:01 |
| courpse | Dravekx, Sure, Then choose the Service type as SSH. | 03:01 |
| aperson | roland-, that's because you're running it in a vm | 03:01 |
| j2daosh | ahh | 03:01 |
| j2daosh | there we go, now I can see | 03:01 |
| roland- | aperson I run other distros that work very fine . | 03:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | roland-, did you install the Guest Additions? I can get compiz working pretty well inside VMs | 03:01 |
| chetnick | Hello, random freezes with only mouse can moves around, but clicks and keyboard are not responsive on Ubuntu 9.04... started few days ago ... worked for almost a year no problems. What can that be? | 03:01 |
| Ashfire908 | Dravekx, gFTP, Connect to Server, or sftp://user@host in nautilus. Take your pick. | 03:01 |
| roland- | ZykoticK9 im planning to do so | 03:01 |
| prower | roland-: It could also be because VirtualBox offers graphics "drivers" for their VM's as guest additions, picks things up quite a bit | 03:02 |
| j2daosh | thank you very much Veinor | 03:02 |
| Dravekx | cool!! thanks alot everyone :) | 03:02 |
| Sirisian_ | arg. Anyone know where the task_struct is initialized for the first time in the kernel source. I know some linuxes (linii?) use an INIT_TASK, but I can't find what it's called or where it is in the ubuntu source. Is it in some startup script or something? | 03:02 |
| Dravekx | I ahve windows here and linux on my other laptop and my server is remote, so this is fun. | 03:02 |
| chetnick | this channel is useless ... never got help here ... | 03:03 |
| Ashfire908 | Dravekx, You can use SFTP on Windows too, with a sftp client (filezilla among others, only GUI client comming to mind.) | 03:03 |
| syn-ack | !questions > chetnick | 03:03 |
| ubottu | chetnick, please see my private message | 03:03 |
| aperson | chetnick, patience | 03:03 |
| aperson | we can't *all* know everything | 03:04 |
| crohakon | Is there a torrent client for linux that gives a bit more information about the current torrent download then Transmission does? It seems to provide vary basic information. | 03:04 |
| ubuntu | I need some major help. I am a beginner user of ubuntu and linux. The other day, I tried updating my system from ubuntu j to ubuntu k. After almost completing the setup, my computer seemed to freeze. I restarted the computer manually (by unplugging it). Now, I cannot boot the system. It says it cannot find some file and to press esc to try using bash. I am currently using my ubuntu install disc as a 'live' u | 03:04 |
| aperson | crohakon, I like deluge | 03:04 |
| ubuntu | ser. How can I reinstall ubuntu while maintaining my home directory exactly? | 03:04 |
| digital-rouge | hey guys can anyone help me wiht my cdrom? | 03:04 |
| Ashfire908 | chetnick, seems that way sometimes, but remember, we are just people. | 03:04 |
| courpse | Ashfire908, winscp is good for that. | 03:04 |
| j2daosh | oh this upgrade from 7.04 to 9.10 is gonna break my beryl wont it | 03:04 |
| aurynn | Any ideas why this would refuse to boot? | 03:04 |
| felo0315_ | como entro al canal ubuntu-es | 03:04 |
| emma | could I do: sudo chmod -x /lib/init/upstart-job if I want to force Ubuntu to boot to a command line environment? | 03:04 |
| felo0315_ | ???? | 03:04 |
| Ashfire908 | courpse, don't tell me that :). | 03:04 |
| felo0315_ | ayuda | 03:05 |
| emma | Or would doing that have other negative consequences? | 03:05 |
| fu_manchu | plut0, i can't find the website but i've got the printout right here | 03:05 |
| syn-ack | ubuntu, is your /home it's own partition? | 03:05 |
| courpse | j2daosh, Its not a good idea to skip versions when upgrading. | 03:05 |
| digital-rouge | anyone here to help? | 03:05 |
| julio | lucy in the sky with diamonds! | 03:05 |
| plut0 | fu_manchu: ok | 03:05 |
| ubuntu | syn-ack, no it is not | 03:05 |
| fu_manchu | if it has to do with the line about no floppy | 03:05 |
| prower | courpse: Some might say that it's not a good idea to upgrade period :> Hasn't worked once yet in my case, fresh install needed every time | 03:05 |
| crohakon | aperson, ahhh! Beautiful. Looks like it is just what I was looking for. Thank you. | 03:05 |
| j2daosh | courpse: no probably not, but once i get 7.04 to 7.10 i think its gonna skip on me | 03:05 |
| felo0315_ | como entro a ubuntu-es?? | 03:05 |
| Ashfire908 | emma, are you looking to make the system command-line only, or you need to fix something? | 03:05 |
| syn-ack | ubuntu, use the liveCD and move everything off it to something like an external disk or a pendrive or something | 03:05 |
| felo0315_ | ayudaa | 03:05 |
| aperson | digital-rouge, ask fist :) | 03:05 |
| plut0 | fu_manchu: i'm booting a livecd now to take a look at the grub config | 03:06 |
| syn-ack | ubuntu, thats about the only choice you have ATM | 03:06 |
| SikEnCide | has anyone tried running ubuntu karmic in bootcamp on mac ? | 03:06 |
| digital-rouge | hey guys in new to linux and ubuntu wont reconize a black cd | 03:06 |
| ubuntu | that sucks | 03:06 |
| courpse | prower, Same here, but its a feature of ubuntu, so i wasnt going to disgreguard it totally | 03:06 |
| SoftCoder | Hello. I've got problems loading "certain" websites in karmic (also had them in jaunty) but only since moving and now i have a new ISP.. wireshark shows lots of TCP Retransmissions... windows XP boxes work flawlessly oin the same websaites... tried disabling ipv6 no change.. any ideas? | 03:06 |
| julio | what is intel-microcode package for? | 03:06 |
| aperson | crohakon, once you get to using it more, I would definitely look into deluged | 03:06 |
| Linn | l | 03:06 |
| emma | Ashfire908, as a learning experience I would like to 'live in a true command line environment for a while' but be able to easily undo that in case I really want to go back to the GUI when I want to. | 03:06 |
| crohakon | aperson, downloading it now. | 03:06 |
| frostburn2 | is there a way to create a live usb stick with multiple isos available for booting? | 03:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | digital-rouge, psone game? | 03:06 |
| aperson | frostburn, yes | 03:06 |
| emma | Ashfire908, doing ctrl+alt+f1 isn't the same for me. | 03:06 |
| aperson | err | 03:06 |
| prower | courpse: Understandably, though I can imagine when people running a perfectly stable 9.04 were prompted by synaptic with a special button to upgrade to 9.10 only to have their systems screwed over, they probably weren't pelased :P | 03:07 |
| fu_manchu | plut0, i had to edit out the line about "no floppy" at the grub screen to get it to boot, then go in and remove the line as root | 03:07 |
| aperson | frostburn2, yes | 03:07 |
| julio | does any one got it? | 03:07 |
| frostburn2 | aperson, what boot loader does it use? | 03:07 |
| aperson | frostburn2, depends on which one you use :) | 03:07 |
| SoftCoder | Anyone here have time to help me with a network issue? | 03:07 |
| Ashfire908 | emma, you can install a command-line only system with the alternate installer... Not sure how to convert a system to cmd only. | 03:07 |
| aperson | SoftCoder, ask fist :) | 03:07 |
| SoftCoder | I did | 03:07 |
| emma | ash-2plus1, there are no run levels in Ubuntu. | 03:07 |
| SoftCoder | no-one answered | 03:07 |
| Joeseph | I currently cannot connect to my windows share drive... Is this due to an Ubuntu update, a Vista update, or is it my problem? | 03:07 |
| emma | Ashfire908, ^ | 03:07 |
| frostburn2 | aperson, sooo name one that works?\\ | 03:07 |
| courpse | prower, I was one of those people, :/ | 03:07 |
| SikEnCide | Will ubuntu karmic run in bootcamp on mac ? | 03:08 |
| aperson | Ashfire908, sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop | 03:08 |
| MusicalGenius | when i installed i clicked auto login, how do i change that? | 03:08 |
| aperson | SoftCoder, I'm sorry I missed it | 03:08 |
| courpse | prower, I had to do a reinstall of 9.04 coz i didnt have 9.10 on disk. | 03:08 |
| emma | Ashfire908, yes I know there is a command line only system... are you saying install and dual boot a command line only system? | 03:08 |
| frostburn2 | emma, install gentoo, all commandline | 03:08 |
| syn-ack | wait what. SoftCoder what does "certain" mean? | 03:08 |
| aperson | SikEnCide, I've read somewhere about getting it running in bootcamp | 03:08 |
| Atula | hi all | 03:08 |
| Atula | i have problem | 03:08 |
| Jar-Man | hello | 03:08 |
| prower | courpse: Same here, I figured I'd give it a chance just this once...should have just went with my instinct and assumed the upgrade process was as broken as it has been in every release | 03:08 |
| SikEnCide | aperson did it work or was it just a hwo too ? | 03:08 |
| julio | hayee | 03:09 |
| syn-ack | SoftCoder, Flash, Porn, BT what? | 03:09 |
| SoftCoder | "some" websites like ncix.com and other sites (I have no idea what the pattern is) either time out or load partially | 03:09 |
| * courpse nods along with prower. | 03:09 | |
| Ashfire908 | emma, gentoo is a pain in the butt. But it is a good learing experence. | 03:09 |
| Atula | with display file name as utf-8 | 03:09 |
| aperson | SikEnCide, I don't own a mac nor do I intend to, all I can suggest is googling it :) | 03:09 |
| Atula | how to fix problem | 03:09 |
| courpse | I have never had any luck with it, for some reason i still thought i'd do it. | 03:09 |
| digital-rouge | well hey when yall got some time to help me out let me know please | 03:09 |
| bilingual | Hi all, I just install ubuntu 9.10 and I want to connect to it from work so I can set it up and everything. However when I click the remote desktop it just shows my local IP address and ubuntu.local. I use VNC with windows at work and it will not connect to my ubuntu computer. what can I do? thanks | 03:09 |
| weweboom | RAWR!! I spent a week trying to get gentoo running, and failed horribly | 03:09 |
| syn-ack | SoftCoder, so it's more of a hit and miss type deal, no? | 03:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | MusicalGenius, "gksudo gdmsetup" | 03:09 |
| Atula | ??? | 03:09 |
| roland- | wait a min, with alternate cd ubuntu installs everything? is there a way to install only the base system? | 03:09 |
| plut0 | fu_manchu: so what do i do? remove the floppy line? | 03:09 |
| SoftCoder | yes.. if I click a link 2-3 times it may work or not | 03:09 |
| syn-ack | roland-, yes. | 03:09 |
| Hilikus | i upgraded my UNR from 9.04 to 9.10 today and the screen brightness is jumping from high to low all the time | 03:09 |
| roland- | syn-ack how? | 03:09 |
| digital-rouge | aperson: can you help me out? | 03:09 |
| prower | courpse: Well if you were like me, you probably saw the button and make the mistake of thinking "hey, maybe they finally fixed it, they must have if they're putting a button for upgrading right there" :P It should have been labelled "IT'S A TRAP!" | 03:10 |
| emma | roland-, by base system you mean a cmd line only ? It's an option in the start screen of the alt cd | 03:10 |
| Hilikus | any idea how to fix it | 03:10 |
| SoftCoder | wireshark shows a LOT of tcp retransmission packets from those websites that give me the timeout | 03:10 |
| emma | roland-, you press f4 maybe or some such thing like that. | 03:10 |
| courpse | prower, lol. | 03:10 |
| sp4z | digital-rouge: whats the problem? | 03:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | MusicalGenius, scrath my first replay -- System / Admin / Login Screen | 03:10 |
| scarra3 | Evening everyone | 03:10 |
| Ashfire908 | emma, it has a severe learning curve. Or you could dual-boot a cmd ubuntu, or uninstall the gui with sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop. | 03:10 |
| syn-ack | roland-, um, you select the profile in which you want to install in like the first or second screens | 03:10 |
| aperson | digital-rouge, why specifically do you need a black cd? | 03:10 |
| frostburn2 | bilingual, try connecting using vncviewer instead of remote desktop, it might be on a different screen :1 | 03:10 |
| fu_manchu | plut0, http://www.linux-archive.org/ubuntu-user/271959-when-installing-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala-will-grub2-work-together-grub-legacy-3.html | 03:10 |
| SoftCoder | SAME hardware booting in dual boot Win XP works fine | 03:10 |
| digital-rouge | im trying to burn a movie | 03:10 |
| roland- | well like I need basic, no x window/spftware | 03:10 |
| Atula | I setup ubuntu server 9.10 but file name no display uft-8 | 03:10 |
| d9500 | roland-: yes, hit f4 when the initial options menu (after language selection) comes up after booting from cd, and then use the arrow keys to select "install a comman lie system" then hit enter, then choose instll ubuntu | 03:10 |
| user01 | is there a karmic drupal install guide? | 03:11 |
| emma | Ashfire908, only the dual boot thing seems clean to me. I don't really want to mame the ubuntu I have I just want to 'comment out the GUI experience" and then when I want to use it again, "uncomment it out" if you get me. | 03:11 |
| d9500 | line* | 03:11 |
| MusicalGenius | thanks | 03:11 |
| crohakon | Atula, #ubuntu-server | 03:11 |
| d9500 | install* | 03:11 |
| aperson | digital-rouge, did your drive ever recognize them? | 03:11 |
| prower | courpse: I did a lot of DV processing on this machine with kdenlive in 9.04, in 9.10 kdenlive is so broken that the preview panes don't even work any more, and that's if it doesn't segfault before you get that far :/ | 03:11 |
| Atula | yes | 03:11 |
| MusicalGenius | can i install kde and gnome? | 03:11 |
| NoMS_ | I recently updated from jaunty to karmic. Now my computer is displaying a floppy drive. I don't have one installed. Is there a way to get rid of this? | 03:11 |
| frostburn2 | user01, yeah, download drupal from drupal and place into /var/www/ | 03:11 |
| digital-rouge | befor the upgrade it did | 03:11 |
| SoftCoder | any thoughts about what my issue could be? | 03:11 |
| fu_manchu | nevermind | 03:11 |
| Dravekx_ | How do I reboot Ubuntu server from the command line? | 03:11 |
| emma | I thought since there is a symlink from gdm to /lib/init/upstart-job maybe I could do sudo chmod -x /lib/init/upstart-job | 03:11 |
| aperson | NoMS_, I'd check your /etc/fstab | 03:11 |
| digital-rouge | and it will reconize any cd with info on it | 03:11 |
| frostburn2 | MusicalGenius, yes, but your menus might get a little cluttered | 03:11 |
| user01 | frostburn2, i downloaded the deb . . . | 03:11 |
| d9500 | Dravekx: sudo reboot | 03:11 |
| emma | Dravekx, perhaps: sudo shutdown -r now | 03:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | Dravekx, "sudo shutdown -r now" | 03:11 |
| tpw_rules | hey | 03:11 |
| fu_manchu | that just shows the info but not the fix i found somewhere | 03:11 |
| digital-rouge | all a sudden it wont reconize or bring up blakc cd;s | 03:11 |
| Paullo_ | some one who KNOW ubuntu can help me to install my video? ten people tryed and they CANT.please HELP ME! | 03:11 |
| sp4z | dravekx: type sudo reboot | 03:11 |
| bilingual | <fu_manchu> will I have control if I did that? | 03:11 |
| courpse | prower, I didnt end up going to 9.10, i did the order CD thing, and the CD aint here yet. | 03:12 |
| aperson | NoMS_, there was something about the cdrom being listed, grr, I know I had to fix that once | 03:12 |
| frostburn2 | user01, i'd just download the tar | 03:12 |
| plut0 | hmm | 03:12 |
| Ashfire908 | emma, you could then reinstall the ubuntu-desktop package. they are all decent options. dual-boot will keep them apart, which can be useful. | 03:12 |
| fu_manchu | i need to search more | 03:12 |
| tpw_rules | i have a netgear WG511T wireless card and I need help getting it to work with 9.10. anybody know? | 03:12 |
| === FFEMTcJ is now known as FFEMTcJ|afk | ||
| plut0 | this sucks | 03:12 |
| prower | courpse: Probably a wise decision, I wish that I'd waited myself but what can you do | 03:12 |
| emma | Ashfire908, removing and uninstalling sounds like a recipe for cruft and badness. Honestly. | 03:12 |
| scarra3 | So what would you say is better, Gnome, KDE, or XFCE | 03:12 |
| sp4z | plut0: what sucks? | 03:12 |
| emma | I might just dual boot but I'm really surprised there is not an elegant way to just switch to a command line only boot in Ubuntu. | 03:12 |
| aperson | scarra3, that's a matter of preference | 03:13 |
| NoMS_ | thanks aperson | 03:13 |
| frostburn2 | scarra3, depends on your needs | 03:13 |
| user01 | frostburn2, well, what happened then when i apt-got drupal6? | 03:13 |
| courpse | prower, Exactly. | 03:13 |
| aperson | NoMS_, let me know if you get it, I'm curious now too :) | 03:13 |
| emma | What harm would: sudo chmod -x /lib/init/upstart-job do? | 03:13 |
| scarra3 | frostburn2, Well I program games and other things | 03:13 |
| plut0 | just installed 9.10 with encryption and it won't boot, http://pastebin.com/m1a4491fa | 03:13 |
| bilingual | emma, do you want to set ubuntu to boot instead of windows? I didn't read your issue | 03:13 |
| frostburn2 | user01, no idea, it probably put in a default drupal installation to... somewhere maybe set up mysql | 03:13 |
| Paullo_ | some one who KNOW ubuntu can help me to install my video? ten people tryed and they CANT.please HELP ME! | 03:13 |
| Ashfire908 | emma, eh... if you are worrying about losing your settings, they are all in your home folder, though i see what you mean. | 03:13 |
| NoMS_ | it was in there. So hopefully that will take care of the problem now it's gone :) | 03:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | emma, want to switch to cli only -- remove GDM from starting with "sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove" | 03:13 |
| user01 | frostburn2, mmm it isnt in /var/www | 03:14 |
| sp4z | plut0: why not reinstall without enc? then use truecrypt? | 03:14 |
| Ashfire908 | frostburn2, emma wants to switch between gui and cli (and back). | 03:14 |

| plut0 | sp4z: i'd like to encrypt / | 03:14 |
| frostburn2 | user01, look at the package info and see where it installed to | 03:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | emma, to add it back it "sudo update-rc.d -f gdm defaults" | 03:14 |
| emma | bilingual, my goal is -- as a learning experience to live in a cmd environment for a while, like in the days before there was X. But ideally I would like to be able to easily 'undo that choice' and go back to my nice GUI Ubuntu when I would really like to. | 03:14 |
| plut0 | and it should work... | 03:14 |
| frostburn2 | Ashfire908, emma use a vm and install a cli environment | 03:14 |
| Ashfire908 | prower, emma says it isn't the same. | 03:15 |

| ZykoticK9 | emma, sorry | 03:15 |
| SoftCoder | anyone? | 03:15 |
| test34 | plut0, encrypt worked for me but performance was not really good | 03:15 |
| sp4z | plut0: truecrypt can encrypt the whole drive. it comes with a bootloader too | 03:15 |
| plut0 | test34: so any idea how to get it to boot? | 03:15 |
| prower | emma: Maybe not, but it would allow you to do what you'd like to do, wouldn't it? | 03:15 |
| bilingual | ah too advanced for me dear. sorry I'm a windows technician and trying to go to ubuntu but I'm lost lol | 03:15 |
| frostburn2 | while i'm here, anyone know how to fix synaptic multitouch touchpads? | 03:15 |

| mysoogal | Fu_manchu u are in dream land :D | 03:19 |
| fu_manchu | no | 03:19 |
| fu_manchu | why? | 03:19 |
| prower | emma: Which you can already do :> You just want to make the process more inconvenient for yourself by avoiding dropping to a tty | 03:19 |
| emma | everyone says that but i don't think it's the same. | 03:19 |
| mysoogal | FU_ 8.10 is the best | 03:19 |
| Ashfire908 | emma, dual-booting Ubuntu I think is a good option for you, I would say you should go with that. | 03:19 |
| fu_manchu | i haven't tried that one | 03:19 |
| emma | going to a tty isn't the same as a proper cmd line environment. | 03:19 |
| mange__ | does anyone know how to go aroud ubuntu not detectiong External usb ide drive? | 03:20 |
| fu_manchu | i said of any i've tried | 03:20 |

| mysoogal | ops thought u had chrome skin in firefox | 03:21 |
| Ashfire908 | emma, if you want a real learning experence, you can try out Gentoo, but mind you... You start with the core system and build it. It's fairlly hard the first time. | 03:21 |
| mysoogal | lol its the same sht | 03:21 |
| nick_h | i just installed glipper, but i can't figure out how to get it into the menubar/systray. any hints? | 03:21 |
| prower | emma: Just because you don't "feel" it's the same doesn't mean that it isn't, essentially, the same | 03:21 |
| Paullo_ | Xcell, yes | 03:21 |
| emma | keppi, Ubuntu does not have any runlevels. | 03:21 |
| Recursive | emma, or Arch Linux | 03:21 |
| phantomcircuit | frostburn2, of course the community docs say to configure though the web interface, but of course the web interface runs as an unprivileged user so it only sees usb devices :| | 03:21 |
| prower | emma: That's a matter of your personal preference | 03:21 |
| Recursive | How do I configure my computer to use an alternate DNS? My ISP's lookups are taking ~6 seconds. | 03:21 |

| Xcell | Paullo_- pvt me so we can do this | 03:21 |
| test34 | plut0, was your crypttab/fstab auto-generated? | 03:21 |
| Ashfire908 | Is archlinux like gentoo but precompiled? | 03:22 |
| emma | prower, also your taking offense at a comment that had nothing to do with you is the misapplication of logic. | 03:22 |
| plut0 | test34: yup, from the install | 03:22 |
| keppi | emma: sure it does | 03:22 |
| mysoogal | dude with graphics Q look here http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html | 03:22 |

| mysoogal | that sh will install ur drivers for you | 03:22 |
| Prodego | emma: I didn't say anything | 03:22 |
| mysoogal | sudo apt-get install something | 03:22 |
| frostburn2 | phantomcircuit, yeah, ntop is a pita to set up, ubuntu has been the easiest of all distros, imo... you can change the user that ntop runs... don't remember the configuration of how though | 03:22 |

| Ashfire908 | Recursive, where's the fun in that? lol | 03:23 |
| prower | emma: What makes you an "expert logician" pray tell | 03:23 |
| Recursive | Ashfire908, most stuff is. "Unsupported" programs are in what's called the AUR, and they are not compiled | 03:24 |

| aperson | Doorman352, add pcspkr to module blacklist | 03:33 |
| internetsharing | anyone know an easy way to share internet similar to the ICS in windows? | 03:33 |
| plut0 | lovely, gotta figure out how to mount my encrypted partition now | 03:33 |
| fu_manchu | grub-mkconfig_lib* | 03:33 |
| Doorman352 | aperson: does this kill all sound? | 03:33 |
| Dravekx_ | frostburn2, nevermind. my server started working: http://www.dravekx.com/ | 03:33 |
| Dravekx_ | thanks for the help :) | 03:33 |
| aperson | Doorman352, just the system bell | 03:34 |
| Doorman352 | Thanks! | 03:34 |
| frostburn2 | Dravekx_, glad to help =p | 03:34 |
| Amaranth | internetsharing: Install the dnsmasq-base package, right click on the network manager icon, create a new connection for the device you're using to share, in the IPv4 settings choose shared from the dropdown | 03:34 |
| internetsharing | Amaranth: thanks (dnsmasq was missing but dnsmasq-base should be found) | 03:35 |
| G226 | Hey all, question: Is there a way to set microphone priority in ubuntu 9.10? I've got a USB microphone but programs by default won't use it unless I go into Volume control and set it each time after plugging it in/turning on the PC. | 03:35 |
| Amaranth | internetsharing: If you've done any manual configuration of dnsmasq you'll have to clear it out first | 03:35 |
| joao | Some one helpe to install my video? | 03:35 |
| keiya | Amaranth: emacs is about as essential as a pile of cow dung | 03:35 |
| roland- | is there a way to make apt skip a package when it installs something? | 03:35 |
| Amaranth | joao: You'll need to be more specific | 03:35 |
| fu_manchu | hmm | 03:35 |
| fu_manchu | brb | 03:35 |
| gvd | aperson, I did the purge and reinstall with no luck. Am I missing something with this tangerine software or would you happen to know where I could go looking for documentation? | 03:35 |
| kisuke | /join ubuntu | 03:35 |
| internetsharing | Amaranth: i don't believe on this computer, if so, will a sudo dpkg --purge dnsmasq* work? | 03:35 |
| Fitus | hi | 03:36 |
| Amaranth | roland-: What are you trying to do? | 03:36 |
| mysoogal | boo | 03:36 |
| aperson | Amaranth, afiak: you don't need to install any packages to share a connection anymore | 03:36 |
| frostburn2 | Amaranth, oh neat, i'm adding that to my toolkit | 03:36 |
| Amaranth | internetsharing: Yeah, if you purge it then reinstall it'll get setup fresh | 03:36 |
| roland- | Amaranth the dejavu font packages crews up my fonts. | 03:36 |
| randomusr | has anyone installed the current versions of alsa and pulseaudi? | 03:36 |
| aperson | gvd, you could try it's man page? | 03:36 |
| randomusr | pulseaudio** | 03:36 |
| roland- | im thinking about installing ttf ms fonts and leaving that. | 03:36 |
| Amaranth | aperson: dnsmasq-base is supposed to be installed by default but I always want to make sure :) | 03:36 |
| droid7 | oi everyone :D | 03:36 |
| Silver_Swords | hi all. where can i find my firefox bookmarks in my filesys? | 03:37 |
| === haitiankid4lyf1 is now known as haitiankid4lyf | ||
| awnstudio | ubuntu 9.10 wont even boot though, after selecting language I get a blank screen | 03:37 |
| aperson | Silver_Swords, it'll be in your ~/mozilla/firefox/ somewhere | 03:37 |
| fu_manchu | plut0, i din't like ubuntu 9.10 on account of the sound quality | 03:37 |
| aperson | err | 03:37 |
| awnstudio | i think its choking on my video card | 03:37 |
| Amaranth | roland-: looks like some packages depend on dejavu specifically (including ubuntu-desktop) but if you don't want those packages installed either you can just uninstall the dejavu fonts | 03:37 |
| aperson | ~/.mozilla/firefox/ | 03:37 |
| Amaranth | roland-: although the dejavu ones are the default so... | 03:37 |
| Silver_Swords | aperson: in where? sys/then? | 03:38 |
| aperson | Silver_Swords, ~ would be your home dir | 03:38 |
| roland- | Amaranth i can find dejavu alternatives, is there a way to lie apt that the package is already installed ? | 03:38 |
| Dravekx_ | is empathy better than pidgin? | 03:38 |
| fu_manchu | my flash video on her is terrible but i think it's the old video card | 03:38 |
| fu_manchu | here* | 03:38 |
| aperson | Silver_Swords, so eg: /home/user/.mozilla/firefox/ | 03:39 |
| Amaranth | roland-: no, you just won't be able to use those apps (seems to be blender and some games on my system) | 03:39 |
| aperson | Silver_Swords, firefox *should* be able to export bookmarks into a friendly format though | 03:39 |
| roland- | I don't do games | 03:39 |
| fu_manchu | youtube vidoes don't play right on here | 03:39 |
| droid7 | Dravekx_: IMO, not yet | 03:40 |
| internetsharing | !flash | fu_manchu | 03:40 |
| ubottu | fu_manchu: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 03:40 |
| Amaranth | roland-: So you should be fine then | 03:40 |
| aperson | fu_manchu, have you tried the latest flash fix | 03:40 |
| insm0d | could somebody help me with my dvd-rom cdr/w drive? No matter how it's invoked, wodim fails to write to a disc, but for some reason I can erase a rewriteable one. I would be more than happy to post more information if needed | 03:40 |
| droid7 | maybe I haven't found it, but empathy can't view profiles yet? | 03:40 |
| fu_manchu | i didn't know they had a flash fix | 03:40 |
| Fitus | I just installed ubuntu 9.10 using ext4 , but I am experiencing continuous random freezes, when I had 9.04 using ext3 everything was working really fine but now is kind of frustrating, is it ext4 the one that is making that ? | 03:40 |
| Amaranth | insm0d: Are you testing to see if the disc actually failed? | 03:40 |
| Ashfire908 | insm0d, try using a gui cd writer? | 03:40 |
| droid7 | flash fix for what? | 03:40 |
| aperson | fu_manchu, what exactly isn't working right? | 03:40 |
| Amaranth | fu_manchu: you can't click on them? | 03:40 |
| aperson | Amaranth, that's a compiz issue iirc | 03:40 |
| Amaranth | aperson: No it isn't :) | 03:41 |
| droid7 | yeah flash is being buggy with compiz :( | 03:41 |
| Fitus | should I reinstall using ext3 ? | 03:41 |
| fu_manchu | yeah, when they play the frames moves so slow you can see them change | 03:41 |
| j2daosh | exit | 03:41 |
| Amaranth | aperson: I'm a compiz developer, it's a GTK+ issue :) | 03:41 |
| legs132 | My eePC and HP both run it great | 03:41 |
| Guest22682 | why doesnt my hard drive on my laptop write at over 2.1mbps | 03:41 |
| aperson | Amaranth, I was just going by what I saw on reddit | 03:41 |
| legs132 | I am stoked | 03:41 |
| Amaranth | aperson: I wouldn't trust reddit with anything | 03:41 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: not douting you, but how come the problem exists only with compiz on? | 03:41 |
| droid7 | *doubting | 03:41 |
| insm0d | yes, Ashfire908, I have tried using Brasero and in the debugging output it uses wodim, | 03:41 |
| frostburn2 | Guest22682, is it 5400 rpm? | 03:41 |
| joam | i got flash working in koala by just installing flashplayer-nonfree | 03:41 |
| Pilot_51 | I switched a print server from Windows to Ubuntu 9.10 and want to share the printer exactly as it was in windows so the clients don't need to be reconfigured for the printer. Can anyone help? | 03:42 |
| Roasted | has anybody gotten samba to work on a virtual install of ubuntu? | 03:42 |
| fu_manchu | this pc is old | 03:42 |
| Guest22682 | frostburn2: not sure but even 400 can write faster than that | 03:42 |
| joam | er flashplugin-nonfree | 03:42 |
| Amaranth | droid7: Some people get the problem with metacity, some get it with other WMs | 03:42 |
| aperson | fu_manchu, what sort of video hardware do you have? | 03:42 |
| Guest22682 | 5400 | 03:42 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: nevermind, it can still be a gtk issue. Excuse my liquored state of mind :) | 03:42 |
| S4nD3r | Please, help me. I installed 9.10, and Id like to know how to make compiz run in login. Every login I must run compiz to see title bars. | 03:42 |
| fu_manchu | i think the video card is lacking | 03:42 |
| joao | Some one helpe to install my video?i try with many metods and all will be wrong! | 03:42 |
| Amaranth | droid7: Some also don't get it with other browsers | 03:42 |
| Fitus | anyone ? | 03:42 |
| Fitus | I just installed ubuntu 9.10 using ext4 , but I am experiencing continuous random freezes, when I had 9.04 using ext3 everything was working really fine but now is kind of frustrating, is it ext4 the one that is making that ? | 03:42 |
| Silver_Swords | aperson: thank you. | 03:42 |
| fu_manchu | this pc must have onboard video from about 1999 | 03:42 |
| insm0d | Amaranth: I know the drive fails to write to the disc because every program I've tried fails | 03:42 |
| frostburn2 | Guest22682, are you writing to the same disk, same partition? | 03:42 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: It's on and off for me. I can click on flash in some areas (for ex. grooveshark.com) but youtube pause+play is tricky | 03:43 |
| Amaranth | Fitus: More likely to be a graphics driver issue | 03:43 |
| Guest22682 | frostburn2: either way same disk or sftp transfer | 03:43 |
| * fu_manchu is away: Gone away for now | 03:43 | |
| Amaranth | droid7: If you're using 64-bit firefox and 32-bit flash there is a workaround | 03:43 |
| Fitus | the one I have is a sis integrated | 03:43 |
| Amaranth | !away | fu_manchu | 03:43 |
| ubottu | fu_manchu: You should avoid noisy away messages in a busy channel like #ubuntu, or other Ubuntu channels; it causes excessive scrolling which is unfair to new users. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 03:43 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: nope, 32bit, but i'll be patient with a fix; unless there is one already | 03:43 |
| fu_manchu | ok | 03:43 |
| fu_manchu | i'll try to change it | 03:43 |
| aperson | fu_manchu, nvm then, the fix I was thinking of requires 3d acceleration | 03:43 |
| Amaranth | droid7: hmm, with 32-bit it should only happen with chromium | 03:43 |
| fu_manchu | brb | 03:44 |
| frostburn2 | Guest22682, shrug, i'd install iostat and investigate from there | 03:44 |
| * fu_manchu is back. | 03:44 | |
| droid7 | Amaranth: haha, damn you hit the spot | 03:44 |
| gantrixx | I have a problem. When I go to web pages that have YouTube vidoes embedded in them, they will not play. Yet I can go to YouTube and they will play. It works fine in Fedora 11, but it won't work in Ubuntu 9.10. And I have no idea why. Any ideas? | 03:44 |
| joao | Some one helpe to install my video?i try with many metods and all will be wrong! | 03:44 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: I'ma try firefox | 03:44 |
| joam | i have koala and just installed amarokd 2.2.0 but it's acting like it's amarok 1.4 (saying sqlite/mysql/postgres in the import collection dialog) why is this? | 03:44 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: Although, the issue sometimes happens with Opera as well | 03:44 |
| Amaranth | droid7: Yeah, I don't know of a fix for chromium but it uses the same technique as nspluginwrapper so it has the same problem | 03:44 |
| webbb82 | this is what i dont understand most common window managers in the Ubuntu world are Metacity, Compiz, and Kwin. at the same time they fluxbox and gnome why do they both have the name window managers | 03:44 |
| aperson | Amaranth, thanks for working on compiz :) | 03:44 |
| Guest22682 | frostburn2: its sata does that have anything to do with itr? | 03:44 |
| Xcell | S4nD3r- | 03:44 |
| d9500 | S4nD3r: system > preferences .startup applications, then click the "add" button, name the command something like compiz-starter, and use the command compiz --replace | 03:44 |
| mange_ | anyone that have good experience in external ide drives | 03:44 |
| frostburn2 | Guest22682, nope, most drives nowadays are sata | 03:45 |
| Amaranth | webbb82: gnome is not a window manager, not sure what you mean beyond that | 03:45 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: Yes, firefox seems to be OK. Thanks for the heads up :D | 03:45 |
| Guest22682 | frostburn2: ok ill try iostat after i install karmic maybe karmic will be faster | 03:45 |
| Amaranth | droid7: no problem, it's either a regression in GTK+ caused by the massive internal changes made or a bug in flash that was masked before | 03:45 |
| frostburn2 | mange, what's your question | 03:45 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: knowing flash... :p | 03:45 |
| Amaranth | droid7: I could get into the details of passive X input grabs and such but it gives me enough of a headache I don't want to torture you :) | 03:45 |
| joao | Some one helpe to install my video?i try with many metods and all will be wrong! | 03:46 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: I'll stay by your best interest for now hehe | 03:46 |
| === joao is now known as Paullo_ | ||
| ZykoticK9 | webbb82, technically Gnome & KDE are called "Desktop Environments" and not windows managers | 03:46 |
| Paullo_ | Some one helpe to install my video?i try with many metods and all will be wrong! | 03:46 |
| droid7 | Amaranth: As a side note: thanks for the work you've done :D | 03:46 |
| aperson | !repeat | Paullo_ | 03:46 |
| ubottu | Paullo_: 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. | 03:46 |
| dale | hey, ive had a broken fan since I upgraded to karmic 2 days ago, anyone have any ideas? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1313259 | 03:46 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: You still haven't given any details. Repeating yourself like that won't help | 03:46 |
| Guest22682 | joam: if it doesnt work out of box go to drivers and see if theres another choice if not see if the manufacturer provides linux driver if not thats all you can do | 03:47 |
| frostburn2 | dale, does the fan work with a live cd (knoppix centos?) if no, you have a broken fan | 03:47 |
| S4nD3r | d9500, Thanks | 03:47 |
| agoole | anyone using a broadcom wireless card here ? | 03:47 |
| snowrichard | just got my wireless enabled on ubuntu 10 with my new acer one | 03:47 |
| Guest22682 | joao: system>preferences>drivers | 03:47 |
| dale | frostburn2: the fan works, its just constantly on, sorry, didnt explain properly | 03:47 |
| syn-ack | ZykoticK9, Though, I do remember when SawFish the default Window Manager for Gnome. :P | 03:48 |
| d9500 | no prob, S4nD3r. | 03:48 |
| dale | the forum post explains what goes wrong and what ive tried | 03:48 |
| S4nD3r | anyway, I tried to install broadcom wireless card (4328), but, didnt work. I tried ndiswrapper | 03:48 |
| Amaranth | syn-ack: ugh, don't remind me :) | 03:48 |
| Guest22682 | joao: and check the manufacturer website for linux drivers | 03:48 |
| syn-ack | I kinda miss that, actually. | 03:48 |
| S4nD3r | worked during afternoon | 03:48 |
| webbb82 | they are callin fluxbox a window mannage | 03:48 |
| S4nD3r | now, at night, didnt work anymore | 03:48 |
| S4nD3r | lol | 03:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | syn-ack, ya SawFish -- i remember those days too... | 03:48 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, I have broadcom wireless | 03:48 |
| FuManchu | ok | 03:48 |
| Amaranth | webbb82: fluxbox is a window manager | 03:48 |
| droid7 | dale: have you seen if the CPU usage is above normal? | 03:48 |
| syn-ack | webbb82, thats because Flux is a WM | 03:48 |
| FuManchu | i think i have the away messages off | 03:48 |
| frostburn2 | dale, yeah not sure what that issue is, i'd venture something to do with acpi... someone here might have had the same thing | 03:48 |
| Paullo_ | Some one helpe to install my video?i try with many metods and all will be wrong!My video is : GeForce Fx 5600xt 128Mb.i try to install by linux recomendation,i install by downlad drive in nvidia.com and install after...but all instalations when i rebot the X the screens comes black and i cant see nothing. | 03:48 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: do you mind comparing some settings ? I can't get the speed I was getting in jaunty | 03:48 |
| insm0d | http://paste.ubuntu.com/310623/ There is my uname and dmesg output if anyone can help me figure out why my cd-burner won't write to a disc | 03:49 |
| Amaranth | webbb82: some window managers do more than others. the ones meant to run with GNOME or KDE tend to not have any user visible features because the desktop environment handles such things | 03:49 |
| F5 | eso | 03:49 |
| F5 | dale | 03:49 |
| aperson | Paullo_, have you tried envy-ng? | 03:49 |
| F5 | :D | 03:49 |
| F5 | buen ingles | 03:49 |
| dale | droid7: yeh it isnt at all, the fans are on while sensors are showing me 28C | 03:49 |
| FloodBot2 | F5: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | syn-ack, what i miss most about old-school Gnome was when the menu editor was just a folder with "shortcuts" in it | 03:49 |
| webbb82 | what window manager does everyone use | 03:49 |
| Amaranth | !es | F5 | 03:49 |
| ubottu | F5: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 03:49 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, sure but I'm not on my lappy right now - it'll be from memory... | 03:49 |
| Amaranth | webbb82: compiz :) | 03:49 |
| syn-ack | ZykoticK9, That was nice. | 03:49 |
| Paullo_ | aperson, withe evnyng he show the same drive that the linux show...and this drive comes with wrongs | 03:49 |
| FuManchu | brb | 03:49 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: can you remember which module you were running? | 03:50 |
| frostburn2 | webbb82, compiz when i can, metacity for when i cant | 03:50 |
| aperson | Paullo_, have you tried it? | 03:50 |
| dale | I mean its on right now and its blowing out cold ait | 03:50 |
| dale | *air | 03:50 |
| syn-ack | ZykoticK9, Though I do remember one time fscking around with Gnome and I used OpenStep as the Window manager with it, that was rather neat | 03:50 |
| aperson | envy compiles the driver iirc | 03:50 |
| droid7 | dale: hmm, it's probably a configuration thing. That happened to me a few releases back but it's been fixed. I don't know much about that; sorry I can't be of much help :/ | 03:50 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: I used to transfer files over the network at nearly 1mb/s, and now i'm down to less than 20kb/s | 03:50 |
| Paullo_ | aperson, no because is the same drive....and all the times i install this drive e need to reinstall the system becausa after rebot the screens comes black | 03:50 |
| frostburn2 | agoole, run tcpdump, see if you're getting packet errors | 03:50 |
| dale | np, a few people seem to have had luck with the same fix that doesnt work for me | 03:50 |
| droid7 | dale: have you changed the power modes? (performance, ondemand, etc..) | 03:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | syn-ack, back in those days i was more a fluxbox on gentoo guy... lol youth | 03:51 |
| drawde_ | remind me never to install anything at night lol | 03:51 |
| DarkLunar | hey where can i download an solitair just the same as the windows xp solitaire? | 03:51 |
| drawde_ | ubuntu's servers must be getting hammered.. i'm dling at like 40kB/sec | 03:51 |
| aperson | Paullo_, I would give it a try, it may be the same drivers, but it will compile them and make them easier to remove, so you don't bork your system | 03:51 |
| droid7 | drawde_: Torrents!!!! | 03:51 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: It sounds like there may be a bug in the nvidia driver then. You're most likely out of luck | 03:51 |
| syn-ack | ZykoticK9, Back in those days I was running Red Hat 5.2 :P | 03:51 |
| S4nD3r | no help? | 03:51 |
| destroy | dd | 03:51 |
| dale | yup, no luck | 03:51 |
| S4nD3r | broadcom wireless card | 03:51 |
| danub | hey all | 03:51 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, oh hang on ... no sorry, that was my older alppy, I have an intel wireless card in the new one | 03:51 |
| drawde_ | droid7: lol i'm install minimal ubuntu.. it's dling everything from ubuntu.com :( | 03:51 |
| Amaranth | S4nD3r: uninstall ndiswrapper, install bcm5w-kernel-source | 03:51 |
| Dhorius | the 5600 is under the legacy driver isn't it? | 03:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | DarkLunar, it's been removed from 9.10 but pysol from 9.04 work and 9.10 and is very good. Sol.exe works in wine as well. good luck | 03:51 |
| droid7 | drawde_: oh haha, even so. apt p2p | 03:52 |
| Paullo_ | aperson, how i will remove if the screens comes black? | 03:52 |
| Amaranth | S4nD3r: err, bcmwl-kernel-source | 03:52 |
| Paullo_ | Amaranth, and how i solve this? | 03:52 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, broadcom is ather based right ? | 03:52 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, broadcom is atheros based right ? | 03:52 |
| danub | i just had to repartition my virtual drive so i could do some upgrades to my system | 03:52 |
| syn-ack | no | 03:52 |

| droid7 | drawde_: I feel your pain though :P | 03:52 |
| Amaranth | joeyeye_: not at all | 03:52 |
| aperson | Paullo_, I've always been able to get into a virtual terminal | 03:52 |
| syn-ack | broadcom is nothing like Atheros | 03:52 |
| droid7 | drawde_: been there before | 03:52 |
| danub | how I dont know how to make it recognize the extra 10 gigs i gave the partition | 03:52 |
| insm0d | joeyeye, no, broadcom is it's own company | 03:52 |
| ryan\n | Hello, I have windows 7 installed on my desktop, I was wondering if there are any conflicting issues if I want to dual boot it with Ubuntu 9.10 | 03:52 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: Stop repeating yourself | 03:52 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: no idea | 03:52 |
| dale | is there a decent intro into how to mainally control the fan? | 03:52 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, you should be good to go | 03:52 |
| dale | most of the things I find are reasonably complex | 03:53 |
| insm0d | If agoole has a bcm43 card he may need to download updated firmware for his card to run with the driver | 03:53 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, run lshw -C network | 03:53 |
| roland- | why on earth does firefox have so many dependencies??????????? | 03:53 |
| Guest22682 | in karmic setup on desktop cd it will ask you if you want to encrypt the users home directory when you make a password, then on first boot it gives you the key, but when making a new user account with user privliges as opposed to admin it does not notify you of encryption key does this mean the new users home directory is not encrypted? | 03:53 |
| agoole | frostburn2: says that theres no suitable interfaces for tcpdump | 03:53 |
| danub | is there some command or application i can use in ubuntu to reconfigure disk space? | 03:53 |
| roland- | gnume utils? I don't have gnome | 03:53 |
| droid7 | dale: controlling the fan isn't something easy. It's usually handled by the drivers in the Kernel | 03:53 |
| Paullo_ | Amaranth, the text is not more on screen | 03:53 |
| Amaranth | roland-: it's a complicated program | 03:53 |
| Paullo_ | whey i cant repeat? =| | 03:53 |
| ryan\n | syn-ack, i have heard about a lot of people having grub issues, would you know naything about it? | 03:53 |
| Paullo_ | why* | 03:53 |
| Joeseph | Hi. I've been using winbind in the fstab to autoconnect to some windows share drives at boot-up time. However, today, it stopped working. | 03:53 |
| S4nD3r | Amaranth, Ok then. | 03:53 |
| FuManchu | plut0 did you find the line i mentioned? | 03:53 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: But people are already talking to you | 03:53 |
| frostburn2 | Paullo_, xorg sucks for debugging, check /var/log/Xorg.0.log and look for entires that are prefaced with [EE] and start googling, good luck | 03:53 |
| Magnesium_ | roland-: Yeah, it's all the gtk gnome stuff | 03:53 |
| ice_cream | so glad you stopped calling it shiretoko | 03:53 |
| dale | kk | 03:53 |
| LoneWlf | GDM isn't listing any users after an upgrade to jaunty | 03:53 |
| S4nD3r | I will need uyour help to make this works | 03:53 |
| frostburn2 | agoole, you need to run as superuser | 03:53 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, what is listed for your wireless ? | 03:53 |
| LoneWlf | anyone know what might be up? | 03:53 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: what am I looking for exactly ? | 03:54 |
| LoneWlf | I'm drawing a 'blank' | 03:54 |
| Amaranth | ice_cream: shiretoko was the code name for firefox 3.5 before it was released | 03:54 |
| Joeseph | Whenever I run "sudo mount -a" (reloading my tabs) It says it can't resolve the specified server name... | 03:54 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, I've heard of some issues but thats with GRUB2. From what I'm understanding it may be that it's not chainloading into windows | 03:54 |
| Magnesium_ | roland-: I've got Kubuntu (KDE) so my firefox has a bunch of dependencies as well. Good thing is, they work for other Gnome stuff too, like GIMP. | 03:54 |
| Joeseph | ah..... Sorry, let me be more concise: | 03:54 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, I dont dualboot though so I really don't know | 03:54 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, it'll say something like product: NetXtreme ... broadcom | 03:54 |
| ice_cream | Amaranth, coming from.. ubuntu? | 03:54 |
| droid7 | wow, kudos to all the helpers. It's hard to keep up with the text :p | 03:54 |
| * isthatall1 can't believe Amaranth is still here and hasn't yanked all his hair out after all these years. | 03:54 | |
| insm0d | agoole, lspci | grep Broadcom | 03:54 |
| ryan\n | syn-ack, true, does ubuntu give an option between grub and grub2? | 03:54 |
| Amaranth | ice_cream: No, from mozilla | 03:54 |
| Joeseph | I can't connect to my windows share. I don't know where the problem is. How can I figure this out? | 03:54 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: oh, I have a broadcom 4311 | 03:55 |
| ice_cream | o.O | 03:55 |
| droid7 | Joeseph: what did you do, and what is the error? | 03:55 |
| Amaranth | isthatall1: I've started going gray :P | 03:55 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, Jaunty to Karmic upgrade does | 03:55 |
| insm0d | excellent agoole... | 03:55 |
| frostburn2 | Joeseph, is this over the network? smb? | 03:55 |
| Paullo_ | my good | 03:55 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, if you're doing a fresh karmic install, it does not | 03:55 |
| agoole | frostburn2: when will tcpdump stop listening for packets ? | 03:55 |
| Magnesium_ | Joeseph: What have you tried so far? | 03:55 |
| Paullo_ | had more six days i try to install and i can't | 03:55 |
| insm0d | do an lsmod agoole and check and see if a b43 module is listed | 03:55 |
| agoole | frostburn2: I don't think its listening on the wireless | 03:55 |
| Joeseph | frostburn2: Yes, it is over the network. | 03:55 |
| ryan\n | syn-ack, hrm, weary of installing it then, haha. | 03:55 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, though I'm sure you can downgrade once you're installed | 03:55 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, and what modules are loaded for the network driver ? | 03:56 |
| Guest22682 | in karmic setup on desktop cd it will ask you if you want to encrypt the users home directory when you make a password, then on first boot it gives you the key, but when making a new user account with user privliges as opposed to admin it does not notify you of encryption key does this mean the new users home directory is not encrypted? | 03:56 |
| agoole | insm0d: yeah its listed | 03:56 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, pastebin the output of lsmod | 03:56 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, I'm sure there are some workarounds in Launchpad already, I'd have a look | 03:56 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: If going to System->Administration->Hardware Drivers and following the directions does not do the right thing you most likely will not be able to install the nvidia driver at all | 03:56 |
| isthatall1 | Amaranth: no freaking doubt, just remember now that you're gray you can say "YOU SHALL NOT PASS"...and really mean it. | 03:56 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: i have b43 loading right now | 03:56 |
| LoneWlf | oops... my bad, I meant, after an upgrade to karmic, the users don't show up on the initial page | 03:56 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: There is no way to force it to work | 03:56 |
| ryan\n | syn-ack, will do, ty for some good info | 03:56 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, no prob bub | 03:56 |
| Xcell | Paullo_- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsNvidia | 03:56 |
| droid7 | Guest22682: an encrypted drive means an encrypted drive :p | 03:56 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, b43 only goes up to 11Mbps I think | 03:56 |
| === isthatall1 is now known as isthatall | ||
| ryan\n | syn-ack, one more thing, is there a 64bit 9.10? | 03:56 |
| frostburn2 | agoole, when you hit stop, can you pastebin/paste here the command you're running? | 03:56 |
| Xcell | your card is not there | 03:56 |
| insm0d | do you have b43-fwcutter installed agoole? | 03:56 |
| droid7 | Guest22682: 100% | 03:56 |
| danub | how can i reconfigure my virtual hard drive to use the 10 extra gigs i recongfigured it for in vmware? | 03:57 |
| syn-ack | Linux Neptune 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:05:01 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 03:57 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, sure is. :P | 03:57 |
| Amaranth | Xcell: That wiki page is not really accurate | 03:57 |
| mdgeorge1 | I'm hungry, anyone wanna give me a syn-ack? | 03:57 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: what should I use instead ? | 03:57 |
| syn-ack | !syn | 03:57 |
| ubottu | FIN... FIN!!!... GO AWAY!!! FIN. | 03:57 |
| Joeseph | Magnesium: I can ping the server with the name, and I have tried remounting it with 'sudo mount -a' | 03:57 |
| Guest22682 | droid7: it does not encrypt the drive only the home directory of the user i guess | 03:57 |
| agoole | frostburn2: from the lsmod ? pasting now | 03:57 |
| Paullo_ | Amaranth, so my video cant work in linux? | 03:57 |
| Amaranth | Xcell: support for various cards shifts from release to release whether they are supposed to be working or not | 03:57 |
| aperson | ryan\n, ubuntu has always had a 64bit version iirc | 03:57 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, look at what insm0d said | 03:57 |
| Xcell | i c | 03:57 |
| aperson | except maybe warty | 03:57 |
| Joeseph | frostburn2: Yes, Over smb. | 03:57 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: It may work in a newer or older version of Ubuntu | 03:57 |
| Magnesium | Joeseph: But it gives you an error? What error exactly? | 03:57 |
| mdgeorge1 | actually, I'm having sound trouble, and I was wondering if anyone could help | 03:57 |
| syn-ack | aperson, iirc warty was not 64 bit | 03:57 |
| frostburn2 | Joeseph, i'd check to see if you can ping/nmap -p445 the server, if you can, what's the error when you try to mount it (smbclient), and check the windows event log for any auth fails | 03:57 |
| ryan\n | yeah i thought so, im at ubuntu.com and i'm only getting a prompt for 32-bit? | 03:58 |
| mdgeorge1 | sounds works sometimes in some apps | 03:58 |
| agoole | insm0d: yes I have it installed | 03:58 |
| insm0d | agoole, a quick way to check if you have b43-fwcutter is simply type b43- and tab | 03:58 |
| mdgeorge1 | since my upgrade to karmic | 03:58 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, standby | 03:58 |
| agoole | insm0d: should I use that to run the firmware ? | 03:58 |
| Paullo_ | Amaranth, i try in 8.04,9.04 and 9.10 | 03:58 |
| ryan\n | ty | 03:58 |
| Amaranth | ryan\n: releases.ubuntu.com | 03:58 |
| Guest22682 | droid7: this is during setup it asks if you want to encrypt the home directory | 03:58 |
| mdgeorge1 | rhythmbox works reliably, but games reliably fail | 03:58 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: Sounds like it just isn't going to work then, sorry. | 03:58 |
| mdgeorge1 | any thoughts? | 03:58 |
| Joeseph | droid7: whenever I go into the folder it says "host is down"... Even thgough I can ping the server name.... I updated to Koala, but I could still connect for a few days. | 03:58 |
| insm0d | it installs the firmware agoole. Hold on a second and I can tell you where to download the firmware from and how to install it | 03:58 |
| mange | frostburn2: did you see my message? | 03:58 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, is the problem slow speeds ? | 03:58 |
| Guest22682 | droid7: which is nice but i create an unprivleged user for myself after install and cant find the option | 03:58 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: pastebin for lsmod : pastebin.com/d7aefb774 | 03:58 |
| droid7 | Guest22682: Ah, ok. I was confused with encrypted "drive". I'm not experienced in that area :( | 03:59 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: yes, terribly slow. | 03:59 |
| syn-ack | ryan\n, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt | 03:59 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: barely able to use pastebin, actually | 03:59 |
| Paullo_ | Amaranth, my video is no here look: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsNvidia | 03:59 |
| Jordan_U | insm0d: If you can't find a link to the latest firmware for 9.10 I have a copy of it on my server | 03:59 |
| ryan\n | syn-ack, thanks again! | 03:59 |
| Guest22682 | anyone else know about karmics encrypt home directory feature? | 03:59 |
| agoole | insm0d: ok, should the firmware run better than b43 ? | 03:59 |
| FuManchu | plut0, it says to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" (without quotes) after removing that line of code i mentioned | 03:59 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, what speed does iwconfig report ? | 03:59 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: As I said, it sounds like it just isn't going to work at all | 03:59 |
| danub | ok, using gparted, found the unallocated 10 gigs, formatting to ext3, how can i combine my root partition with the newly created 10gig partition | 03:59 |
| Colonel_Panik_ | I am on 64 bit jaunty and it offers to upgrade to 9.10 so i would say 64bit 9.10 is somewhere on Ubuntu.com | 03:59 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: rate of 11mb/s | 04:00 |
| MHz128 | Where is menu.lst located in 9.10? | 04:00 |
| droid7 | Guest22682: Seems like there may be options for encryption when "adduser" is used. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EncryptedPrivateDirectory | 04:00 |
| Joeseph | Magnesium: well, if I look at it in nautilus, it just hangs forever. seems to be the same if I try to 'ls' the dir in the terminal. | 04:00 |
| joeyeye_ | insm0d, is b43 replaced by fwcutter ? | 04:00 |
| aperson | MHz128, there is no more | 04:00 |
| Paullo_ | 5500 jump to 5700 ¬¬ | 04:00 |
| insm0d | yes agoole, once you have the firmware installed it should work 100%. Please stand by for further instructions | 04:00 |
| droid7 | Guest22682: Maybe helpful. Not sure | 04:00 |
| Paullo_ | WHERE 5600? =[ | 04:00 |
| aperson | MHz128, edit /etc/default/grub | 04:00 |
| Guest22682 | ill look | 04:00 |
| MHz128 | aperson, ah, no wonder | 04:00 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: As I said, it sounds like it just isn't going to work at all | 04:00 |
| insm0d | joeyeye, no, b43 works with the firmware b43-fwcutter extracts from an executable | 04:00 |
| Paullo_ | Amaranth hahaha | 04:00 |
| frostburn3 | agoole, Paullo_ got disconencted | 04:00 |
| aperson | !grub | MHz128 | 04:00 |
| joeyeye_ | agoole, i'll defer to insm0d - good luck | 04:00 |
| ubottu | MHz128: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 04:00 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: Complain loudly to nvidia | 04:00 |
| aperson | err | 04:00 |
| aperson | dang | 04:00 |
| agoole | joeyeye_: thanks. | 04:00 |
| Magnesium | Joeseph: might be a silly question, but is your networking up? Can you ping google.com? | 04:00 |
| MHz128 | !grub2 | 04:01 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 04:01 |
| awnstudio | can someone help me get ubuntu 9.10 installed | 04:01 |
| jlgshk_ | #ubuntu-es | 04:01 |
| frostburn3 | Joeseph, sorry got disconnected | 04:01 |
| Paullo_ | frostburn, what? | 04:01 |
| MHz128 | aperson, thanks man | 04:01 |
| aperson | MHz128, :) they changed some stuffs around, I just learned of it last night mysel | 04:01 |
| awnstudio | jlgshk_, whas that for me> | 04:01 |
| Joeseph | Magnesium: Yeah. My internet is acting slow, but I *think* that is an irrelevant issue. | 04:01 |
| insm0d | okay agoole: Try to download the firmware package with wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0.tar.bz2 | 04:01 |
| frostburn3 | Paullo_, i got disconnected, if you said anything in channel/pm | 04:01 |
| FuManchu | awnstudio, i like 9.04 better after trying 9.10 ubuntu | 04:02 |
| mange | frostburn3: did you see my message? | 04:02 |
| awnstudio | current ubuntu is stuck on this screen with a white ubuntu icon | 04:02 |
| frostburn3 | mange, nope | 04:02 |
| Joeseph | frostburn3: Yes, I can ping -p445 my server. | 04:02 |
| doltek | I installed Virtual Box, so now how do I install windows? | 04:02 |
| Magnesium | Joeseph: Hmmm...give me a minute, I've got another suggestion comin' | 04:02 |
| mange | frostburn2: My external ide drive is not detected in ubuntu at all. But work in xp. | 04:02 |
| awnstudio | FuManchu, i like 9.10 | 04:02 |
| FuManchu | really | 04:02 |
| mange | frostburn2: also when i use firewire instead of usb the drive is detected but wil not mount | 04:02 |
| FuManchu | how about the sound? | 04:02 |
| insm0d | agoole: once it's finished downloading, extract it with tar xjf [the file you just downloaded] and change directory to broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0/kmod | 04:02 |
| frostburn3 | mange, do you see it when you do a lsusb? | 04:02 |
| gvd | aperson, I'm sorry, I got distracted. How do you get to the man page | 04:02 |
| awnstudio | FuManchu, well it works on my laptop | 04:02 |
| Paullo_ | if i install the 173 and after edit the xorg with 5500 configurations can be run? | 04:02 |
| FuManchu | it has good sound quality? | 04:03 |
| insm0d | agoole: from there run b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta.o | 04:03 |
| S4nD3r | Amaranth, lets go to install broad card? | 04:03 |
| frostburn3 | Joeseph, i'd check to see the event log, right cclick my computer, manage, events, i don't know what the exact event is called though | 04:03 |
| Yanick_ | Hi, I've been reading on Brainstorm and some other forums about rythmbox not being updated, and all. And I was wondering if rythmbox would finally be replaced with something else (and what?) or would the development be continued and keep it as official music player? | 04:03 |
| Amaranth | S4nD3r: eh? | 04:03 |
| insm0d | agoole: then reboot and cross your fingers | 04:03 |
| Fitus | I installed xubuntu desktop over my ubuntu install but when I try to remove xubuntu desktop it only removes ( 1 ) file which is xubuntu desktop, how do I remove the whole xubuntu desktop ? | 04:03 |
| aperson | gvd: man pages are accessible via man <packagename/command> | 04:03 |
| Amaranth | Yanick_: At least until Ubuntu 10.10 (a year from now) rhythmbox is going to be the default | 04:04 |
| aperson | so in your case: man tangerine (?) | 04:04 |
| Joeseph | frostburn3: Yeah. I'll check the event log. | 04:04 |
| S4nD3r | strange | 04:04 |
| syn-ack | insm0d, same insm0d from #linux on undernet? | 04:04 |
| S4nD3r | wifi led is on | 04:04 |
| gvd | got it | 04:04 |
| gvd | aperson got it | 04:04 |
| Yanick_ | Amaranth, I hear ya, and what will it be replaced with? Songbird? | 04:04 |
| S4nD3r | so strange | 04:04 |
| agoole | insm0d: haha, ok, thank you, I will type and reboot and let you know, i'm on the desktop now, so i'll stay online | 04:04 |
| Amaranth | Yanick_: If anything it will be replaced with banshee | 04:04 |
| aperson | gvd: it works now, or you have the man page? | 04:04 |
| MHz128 | aperson, can I make GRUB1 point to a partition with 9.10? like root (hd1,1) chainloader +1 | 04:04 |
| Yanick_ | Amaranth, really? | 04:04 |
| Guest22682 | droid7: this is what i was looking for but its an old wiki it doesnt say how to use it in karmic | 04:04 |
| Joeseph | Magnesium: Hmmm.... it seems to be working now, just being unworkably slow. | 04:04 |
| insm0d | syn-ack nope | 04:05 |
| Amaranth | Yanick_: songbird is a mess that uses more RAM than ubuntu's current minimum system requirements :P | 04:05 |
| IdleOne | is there an issue with ext4 samba shares and viewing from windows? | 04:05 |
| Guest22682 | frostburn3: i get about 0mbps doing a dban nuke so its not because its a 5400 | 04:05 |
| Magnesium | Joeseph: Okay...good to hear. I thought that might be it, since you weren't getting any errors. | 04:05 |
| Guest22682 | 50mbps | 04:05 |
| lockd | Amaranth: but banshee uses Mono, which is also pretty heavy | 04:05 |
| aperson | MHz128, that one is a tad out of my league, but I think you can (in fact I think it came up not much earlier) | 04:05 |
| Yanick_ | Amaranth, so, will it also replace totem at the same time? | 04:05 |
| MHz128 | aperson, ok thanks | 04:05 |
| Amaranth | lockd: banshee also has a fixed memory size no matter how many songs you load into it | 04:05 |
| Lanphilo | hi :D | 04:05 |
| Amaranth | Yanick_: It hasn't been all worked out yet but probably not | 04:06 |
| Magnesium | Joeseph: How exactly are you connecting? Do you type smb://whatever into the address bar, or do you mount it to a directory on your computer? | 04:06 |
| prower | lockd: Unfortunately you're going to have to get used to Mono, de Icaza is going to keep shoehorning it into GNOME for as long as he lives :P | 04:06 |
| Amaranth | Yanick_: Think of totem as quicktime player and banshee as iTunes on OS X :) | 04:06 |
| Yanick_ | Amaranth, never tried anything else than rythmbox and amarok (or maybe xmms a while back). Never tried songbird (never heard of it before too) | 04:06 |
| aperson | MHz128, I think it's a matter of uninstalling grub2 and installing grub and updating it, similar process to restoring grub normally? | 04:06 |
| Lanphilo | i lost my connection while downloading a package by apt-get, how can i continue downloading it? | 04:06 |
| frostburn3 | Guest22682, check out http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/articles/Jeremys_Magazine_Articles/Hunting_I_O_Bottlenecks_with_iostat | 04:06 |
| syn-ack | prower, I kinda like .NET though. :P | 04:06 |
| ryan\n | so I was looking at some install options, anyone have experience with this "Install inside windows" installation? | 04:06 |
| Amaranth | Lanphilo: sudo apt-get -f install | 04:06 |
| syn-ack | prower, Regardless of the platform. :P | 04:06 |
| MHz128 | aperson, what I'm trying to do is boot 9.1 with the old grub... :p | 04:06 |
| Joeseph | Magnesium: I have it mounted in the fstab via ... smb I believe. | 04:06 |
| wapko | anybody know if 9.10 is also affected by the realtek 8168/8169 eth0 down issue ? | 04:06 |
| MHz128 | from a diff HDD | 04:06 |
| Lanphilo | Amaranth: thanks :D | 04:06 |
| Paullo_ | if i install the 173 and after edit the xorg with 5500 configurations can be run? | 04:07 |
| Yanick_ | Amaranth, I really never use Totem as I usually install MPlayer and Xine. But thanks for the pointer about banshee | 04:07 |
| Amaranth | Paullo_: The only way to know is to try it yourself | 04:07 |
| prower | syn-ack: Nothing wrong with that -- however, there's often a _big_ difference between a language and the _implementation_ of a language | 04:07 |
| Joeseph | Magnesium: The problem could be on the Windows side... I'm going to take a quick look at it from a spare windows laptop and see what happens. | 04:07 |
| prower | syn-ack: Mono will always suffer from the same problem as Wine -- constantly having to catch up | 04:07 |
| Lanphilo | Amaranth: this is not working.. is it the only option? | 04:07 |
| === hayden is now known as hayden_m | ||
| mange_ | frostburn3: yes i see it when i typ lsusb | 04:08 |
| syn-ack | prower, True enough. | 04:08 |
| hayden_m | Does anybody know how to get power management working in GDM, so my PC sleeps after, say, 10 minutes, even if nobody is logged in? | 04:08 |
| Amaranth | Lanphilo: Well if you try to install something else it'll also continue the previous download and install | 04:08 |

| mange_ | frostburn3: yes i see it when i typ lsusb | 04:08 |
| Magnesium | Joeseph: Alright...I use the smbmount program to connect to samba shares...i.e., sudo smbmount //sharename /some/path/on/your/computer | 04:08 |
| prower | syn-ack: That's not to say the language itself is "bad" however, I actually like some of the features that are included in the standard :> But standard and Microsoft are not often found together in the same sentence :P | 04:08 |
| frostburn3 | mange_, did you try manually mounting it? e.g. mount /dev/sdb1 /some/directory | 04:08 |
| lockd | prower: yeah, something like Ruby isn't affected by that problem because virtually everyone uses (or can use) MRI | 04:08 |
| Magnesium | Joeseph: Don't know if it's any different | 04:08 |
| Lanphilo | Amaranth: thanks, will try.. | 04:08 |

| Amaranth | Lanphilo: Try ` sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` | 04:09 |
| Jordan_U | prower: mono has features that .NET does not, it's used in in iphone apps and other areas that are not linux related | 04:09 |
| syn-ack | prower, HAHAHA | 04:09 |
| prower | Jordan_U: Very true. It's also promoted as being able to run Windows .NET apps and ASP.net apps however, and in a lot of cases it craps out on both | 04:09 |
| S4nD3r | How to remove ndiswrapper module? | 04:09 |
| FuManchu | this new optical usb mouse for windows works well | 04:09 |
| S4nD3r | I uninstalled this one, but the module loads everyboot | 04:09 |
| FuManchu | my usb flash drives wouldn't even work with windows 98 on here | 04:10 |
| Lanphilo | Amaranth: will that continue my previous download? | 04:10 |
| Amaranth | Lanphilo: it should, yes | 04:11 |
| FuManchu | they work on ubuntu | 04:11 |
| FuManchu | that's cool | 04:11 |
| Lanphilo | Amaranth: it looks like performing a distribution upgrade, i think i lost 5 hrs of downloading | 04:11 |
| Joeseph | Magnesium: Yeah. Just looked. I use "smbfs" in the fstab. Laptop is booting up... results in a minute... | 04:11 |
| Lanphilo | Amaranth: any ideas? | 04:11 |
| S4nD3r | Is possible, get help to install correctely my broadcom card? | 04:11 |
| Amaranth | Lanphilo: no, it'll definitely not download anything it already has | 04:11 |
| frostburn3 | Lanphilo, the packages are not deleted from a failed distro ugprade, itll resume | 04:11 |
| Amaranth | S4nD3r: you uninstalled ndiswrapper and installed bcmwl-kernel-source then rebooted? | 04:11 |
| S4nD3r | yes | 04:12 |
| Amaranth | S4nD3r: and what happens? | 04:12 |
| Lanphilo | frostburn3, Amaranth , im not performing a distro upgrade; im installing kubuntu-desktop | 04:12 |
| S4nD3r | ndiswrapper is showed in lsmod | 04:12 |
| isleshocky771 | Could anyone offer direction on getting my external monitor to have the correct resolution? It's correct resolution does not show up in the select list in display properties. I have an intel 915gm graphics card | 04:12 |

| |Arsin| | My keyboard keeps on screwing up every 100 characters or so, sometimes less and sometimes even at the login screen | 04:12 |
| aperson | odd, I can add ppa:banshee-team/ppa to my software sources, but sudo add-apt-repository banshee-team/ppa doesn't work | 04:12 |
| Lanphilo | Amaranth, frostburn3, are those packages deleted? | 04:13 |
| Amaranth | Lanphilo: If dist-upgrade is doing something then something needed to be done | 04:13 |
| Amaranth | Lanphilo: I assumed a dist-upgrade is what you were doing though | 04:13 |
| S4nD3r | What to do now? | 04:13 |
| wgrant | aperson: You need to give it 'ppa:banshee-team/ppa', not just 'banshee-team/ppa' | 04:13 |
| frostburn3 | one_, look through vmware-config.pl and see where that error message is thrown, you probably have to remove the current kernel modules, you may want to see the vmware support forum for more details, it's been a while since i used something other than esx | 04:13 |
| Joeseph | Magnesium: Yeah... The windows laptop is bringing up the windows share just as slowly.... Should have known it was a windows problem.... great. I hate windows problems... | 04:13 |
| Amaranth | Lanphilo: You should have ran `sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop` to just get it installing that again | 04:13 |
| mange_ | frostburn3: yes i see it when i typ lsusb | 04:13 |
| Amaranth | Lanphilo: It'll keep the kubuntu-desktop packages around until the total it has downloaded gets over a certain size though | 04:14 |
| frostburn3 | mange_, did you try manually mounting it? e.g. mount /dev/sdb1 /some/directory | 04:14 |
| aperson | wgrant, it worked without it with other ppa's | 04:14 |

| nathan_ | bibinou, i dont know what to do to make it work, nothing seems to work. | 04:16 |

| isleshocky771 | I just did it a few hours ago. | 04:16 |

| FuManchu | awnstudio, softpedia has ubuntu 9.04 | 04:17 |
| scunizi | one_: just vmware not your whole system.. | 04:17 |

| S4nD3r | its installed too | 04:18 |

| S4nD3r | what to do now? | 04:18 |
| S4nD3r | reboot again? | 04:18 |

| FuManchu | awnstudio > http://linux.softpedia.com/progDownload/Ubuntu-Jaunty-Jackalope-Download-43130.html | 04:20 |
| S4nD3r | there | 04:20 |
| Magnesium | prower: That's why I said unless there is some incompatibility they were avoiding...obviously, if something doesn't work, you should stick with the old one. | 04:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | emma, it certainly didn't on mine??? and your sure you switched it too "stop on runlevel [0126]" | 04:20 |
| loquitus | frostburn3: negative. I cannot. I need to build and package everything here on my machine. would be nice to have the luxury but often you can't have access to the target. | 04:20 |
| insm0d | agoole, does it work better though? If it does, you'll just need to enable the b43 driver at boottime | 04:20 |
| S4nD3r | How to putoff ndiswrapper module from my startup? | 04:20 |
| prower | Magnesium, Well yes, that makes sense...regressions and broken packages aren't really "incompatibilities" though | 04:20 |
| loquitus | surely I can just install the 32 bit mysql libs here | 04:20 |
| frostburn3 | mange, no no, that was just an example, run a ls -l /dev/disk/by-label/ | 04:20 |
| S4nD3r | every boot, this one starts, I can see it through lsmod | 04:20 |
| emma | ZykoticK9, yes the only difference between the two lines is to put that '2' in there right? | 04:20 |
| Magnesium | prower: Plus, Karmic has been officially released, so it's *supposed* to be stable. | 04:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | emma, you are on 9.10 correct? | 04:20 |

| isleshocky771 | one_: You download the .sh and the patch file to the same directory? And then you executed the .sh file as root? That's all you should have had to do. Unless vmware installed somewhere funky. | 04:25 |

| scunizi | loquitus: do you already have the 32 bit libs install as well? | 04:25 |
| Magnesium | wolf23: Is that what you usually get? If so, your problem may just be that there are too many leechers and not enough seeders. What are you downloading...or can you say? :P | 04:26 |

| one_ | isleshocky771: /var/lib/vmware, is that the usual ? | 04:27 |
| prospero_ | I can't login. | 04:27 |
| russ5811 | even tried it with a cd usb. no luck | 04:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | loquitus, you might want to check out getlibs, works great for me when installing 32bit libs for gaming/etc - explained/available from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790 | 04:27 |
| russ5811 | i was able to upgrade to 9.10 via update man | 04:28 |
| one_ | isleshocky771: or /usr/lib/vmware | 04:28 |
| idyllic | Paullo_: try gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 04:28 |

| prospero_ | cfedde: Good point. Thanks | 04:28 |
| awnstudio | Magnesium, i've only been asking for help with the new for like 30 minutes | 04:28 |
| scunizi | loquitus: I'm looking in packages.ubuntu.com to see what's there. | 04:28 |
| S4nD3r | I installed those: bcmwl-kernel-source b43-fwcutter | 04:28 |
| S4nD3r | nothing the card works | 04:28 |
| one_ | isleshocky771: I have vmware-config in /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl | 04:28 |
| loquitus | ZykoticK9: yah... totally found that just now the same time you mentioned it. you are a smart human. | 04:28 |

| Magnesium | awnstudio: Okay...sorry, didn't see that stuff...too many things scrolling by! | 04:29 |
| isleshocky771 | one_: You should normally have something in /var/lib/vmware | 04:29 |
| Magnesium | wolf23: np | 04:29 |
| awnstudio | Magnesium, np, this channel is madness | 04:29 |
| russ5811 | magnesium, did that explanation make sense? | 04:30 |
| one_ | isleshocky771: there is where I download and install the patch ? | 04:30 |
| Ubuntusr314 | heyo | 04:30 |
| loquitus | ZykoticK9: flattery will get you nowhere. You will be assimilated. | 04:30 |
| Guest22682 | what's wrong with this command? sudo adduser --encrypt -home username | 04:30 |
| Magnesium | russ5811: Actually, unless you have your heart set on ext4, I would recommend sticking with ext3. There are still too many problems with ext4, IMO. | 04:30 |
| guillermoyepes | I really need help, amsn doesn't work (some -init module problem), firefox doesn't work properly (lost bookmarks, can't search from right-top bar, etc)... | 04:30 |
| Ubuntusr314 | anyone install vmware over ssh, is this possible to do | 04:30 |
| isleshocky771 | one_: That's where it should already be installed. So did you remove it by accident it at some point? | 04:31 |
| Frozen-Solid | i trying to figure out how to enable virtual desktops on ubuntu netbook remix | 04:31 |
| isleshocky771 | one_: Which means you would have to reinstall it.. so follow that full guyide. | 04:31 |
| guillermoyepes | And hey, what was the problem? NOT ENOUGH FREE SPACE. I'm fucking stupid | 04:31 |
| scunizi | loquitus: I don't see either version there.. at least one starting with mysql-XXX.. there are some libs with the -dev at the end but you can't tell if they are 32 or 64 bit | 04:31 |
| russ5811 | ext4, not only bonus. the interface is much cleaner on 9.10. more concerned about why such a problem to install | 04:31 |

| Magnesium | russ5811: Yeah, I don't know, I did an upgrade from Jaunty. Did you say that you could install the full desktop version of karmic? If so, that you could just install the netbook remix through apt after install. | 04:32 |

| Magnesium | wolf23: Not that I know of...I do know that sound is a big problem on karmic. In the ubuntuforums, they've got a sticky for it...hold on, I'll get the link | 04:34 |
| prower | wgrant: Well let's do a simple pool then, shall we? | 04:34 |
| nathan_ | FuManchu, network adaptor? | 04:35 |
| prower | How many people here are below the age of 10? | 04:35 |
| scunizi | ki4cgp: that doesn't black list ipv6 | 04:35 |

| ki4cgp | scunizi, Thanks, I'll see if that sorts me out | 04:35 |
| wgrant | prower: Because it's unnecessary noise. All Ubuntu channels are to be kept family friendly -- that is policy. | 04:36 |
| scunizi | ki4cgp: good luck.. probably won't but worth a shot. | 04:36 |
| guillermoyepes | Bad language? ok, I don't want to disturb you... I think it doesn't make any sense, so keep having that clean spirit, I don't want to waste neither my time nor yours... Peace. | 04:36 |

| Ubuntusr314 | anyone install vmware over ssh, is this possible to do | 04:36 |
| prower | wgrant: Yes it is policy. My point is that the policy is silly and pointless. You're free to your opinion, I'm free to mine :> | 04:36 |
| Magnesium | russ5811: Okay, sorry I can't give any more advice. However, I would recommend that you have the full enviroment as well as UNR. Plus, NR isn't really an upgrade, it's just another package. So there is really no advantage at all to a clean install of UNR vs. installing it through apt. | 04:36 |
| gvd | sorry aperson, I got to the man page | 04:37 |

| nathan_ | bibinou, yeah lol ^ | 04:38 |
| emma | ZykoticK9, could you test in your vmware to see what happens with: sudo chmod -x /lib/init/upstart-job | 04:38 |

| FuManchu | in terminal | 04:39 |
| gvd | do you know if there is a way to search for most recently modified conf files | 04:39 |
| frostburn3 | emma, you need -X | 04:39 |

| wolf23 | Magnesium: on gfceu? | 04:39 |
| nathan_ | bibinou, i see wlan0 and some details next to it | 04:39 |

| emma | forceflow, capital X why? | 04:39 |
| gvd | aperson, do you know if there is a way to search for most recently modified conf files, because searching for tangerine.conf isn't working | 04:40 |
| bibinou | please do a pastebin and send the link | 04:40 |
| emma | ZykoticK9, i dont want you to hose your system if you are sure it will. | 04:40 |

| ZykoticK9 | emma, oh i'm not sure - so i'll try ;) | 04:40 |
| bibinou | ok i'm not good at irc things | 04:40 |
| emma | I'm really surprised there is not a pretty easy way to make Ubuntu boot into command line. | 04:40 |
| S4nD3r | oh | 04:40 |
| emma | frostburn, chmod ? | 04:40 |
| emma | I thought for chmod -x means turn of execute | 04:40 |
| S4nD3r | look this http://pastebin.com/d74b3447 now, its worst | 04:40 |
| aperson | gvd: you can open the dir up in nautilus and view by list, then sort by modified time | 04:40 |
| bibinou | nathan_: paste your iwconfig output there : http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 04:41 |
| aperson | I'm pretty sure there's a quick way to sort by modified time with ls, I just don't know it off the top of my head | 04:41 |
| insm0d | okay I'm convinced the problem with me not being able to write with my cd-writer is because it is using a scsi interface for an ATAPI drive. How do I disable generic scsi suport? | 04:41 |

| aperson | yellowrooster, well, yes | 04:48 |
| scunizi | yellowrooster: ah. ok.. I'll keep that in mind when I upgrade | 04:48 |
| mobutut | bryan_, did you try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 04:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | emma, the pastebin with your /etc/init/gdm.conf yes I saw it, and it looked fine to me. Made change and waiting on reboot -- it boots to console and a cli login! So that change is working on my system? | 04:48 |
| aperson | yellowrooster, but you don't edit that one | 04:48 |
| scunizi | bryan_: flashplugin-nonfree | 04:48 |
| digitalstimulus | e | 04:48 |
| aperson | yellowrooster, you edit /etc/default/grub | 04:48 |
| yellowrooster | so which do i edit to change the delay time? | 04:48 |
| yellowrooster | aperson: ok. | 04:48 |
| emma | ZykoticK9, that's so weird. | 04:48 |
| emma | I'm using 9.10 | 04:48 |

| ZykoticK9 | emma, me too! i'm using AMD64, you? | 04:48 |
| emma | ZykoticK9, yes AMD64 | 04:49 |
| aperson | bryan_, flashplugin-installer is what flashplugin-nonfree downloads iirc | 04:49 |
| frostburn3 | emma, to boot distros without x, you'd change the grub menu.lst to start with runlevel 3, but ubuntu only has run levels 1,2,6 | 04:49 |
| mobutut | does anyone have experience setting up winmodems? | 04:49 |
| FuManchu | yellowrooster, /usr/lib/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib ? | 04:49 |
| emma | ZykoticK9, I have all my partitions except for /boot encrypted. | 04:49 |
| wgrant | frostburn3: Ubuntu does not really use runlevels, as it does not use sysvinit. | 04:49 |
| emma | I can't see why that would matter. | 04:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | emma, no encryption on my system at all | 04:49 |
| aperson | scunizi, you don't edit the .cfg file, that gets rebuilt on every kernel update | 04:49 |
| scunizi | mobutut: win modems are a pain and 90% of them don't work | 04:50 |
| frostburn3 | wgrant, which is why you can't set a runlevel to boot into | 04:50 |
| scunizi | aperson: ok.. which file? I haven't messed with grub2 yet | 04:50 |
| aperson | scunizi, /etc/default/grub is part of what builds the cfg and will keep the changes you make persistent | 04:50 |
| === hemanth is now known as g33k | ||
| yellowrooster | aperson: my grub file is http://pastebin.com/m630f99cf . which line do i edit to lessen delay time ? | 04:50 |
| mobutut | scunizi, there is a lot of success stories on the forums about them, just most the tutorials are for older kernels | 04:50 |
| emma | wgrant, so then how can a person choose to have Ubuntu run in a command line environment easily and then go back to the GUI version when they like? | 04:51 |

| jj_galvez | the upgrade to karmic also upgraded postgres from 8.3 to 8.4 how do I get my data back? | 04:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | Anyone with 9.10 willing to run a quick test on their system for emma and I? could you see if cli login works by making the change in this pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/311163/ | 04:51 |
| wgrant | emma: mv /etc/init.d/gdm.conf{,.disabled} | 04:51 |
| mobutut | bryan you need to enable multiverse and restricted repos | 04:51 |

| WACOMalt | thanks | 04:52 |
| Xcell | bryan_- go to ubuntu software center under (other) they should be there | 04:52 |
| yellowrooster | WACOMalt: do this: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub | 04:52 |
| aperson | bryan_, did you update your repos after you checked them? | 04:53 |
| cody | wgrant: Ah, okay. Lol, i hope someone else does :\ I need to access that to put music in it haha | 04:53 |
| bryan_ | aperson, in 9.10 it was already checked | 04:53 |
| tyler_d1 | ZykoticK9: or change your inittab to 1... | 04:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | tyler_d, making that single change boots my system to cli -- emma says it doesn't? | 04:53 |
| frostburn3 | WACOMalt, /boot/grub/menu.lst | 04:53 |
| WACOMalt | yellowrooster: I am on a wubi install, does mine still use grub2? (after the windows bootloadet that is) | 04:53 |
| bastidrazor | yellowrooster: for graphical applications use gksudo | 04:53 |
| yellowrooster | WACOMalt: then change the 7th line from "GRUB_TIMEOUT=10" to "GRUB_TIMEOUT=2" or "GRUB_TIMEOUT=1". Then sudo update-grub | 04:53 |
| aperson | frostburn3: no | 04:53 |
| yellowrooster | bastidrazor: it doesn't seem to make difference | 04:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | tyler_d, 9.10 gets rid of init replace with the new thingie | 04:53 |
| oorah | if i leave my laptop on without dimming or sleep mode will it mess up my screen? | 04:53 |
| bastidrazor | !gksudo > yellowrooster will explain why. | 04:54 |
| wgrant | tyler_d1: Ubuntu has not used inittab in any normal sense for quite a while. | 04:54 |
| ubottu | yellowrooster, please see my private message | 04:54 |
| pwnst_R | oorah: eventually | 04:54 |
| scunizi | frostburn3: you just did what I did.. that ain't it on grub 2.. someone mentioned just /etc/default/grub is where it's at.. | 04:54 |
| yellowrooster | bastidrazor: /pm thanks | 04:54 |
| tyler_d1 | wgrant: so what replaced it? | 04:54 |
| bryan_ | aperson, i did not check it, was checked by default i reloaded and it works now. this is different than any other version of ubuntu i have tried | 04:54 |
| wgrant | tyler_d1: Upstart has replaced sysvinit in Ubuntu. | 04:54 |
| emma | i'm going to see if this works. I may be back soon | 04:54 |
| wgrant | tyler_d1: It's now all dependency based. | 04:54 |
| frostburn3 | scunizi, oo, didn't see karmic qualification | 04:55 |
| scunizi | frostburn3: I didn't either.. but most that are asking are newer karmic users. | 04:55 |
| tyler_d1 | wgrant: so leading from there... how would you change your runlevel on startup? | 04:55 |
| WACOMalt | On a wubi install, can I make it skip the windows bootloader is ubuntu is on the same drive as windows? | 04:55 |
| S4nD3r | please.. | 04:55 |
| WACOMalt | *if ubuntu is... | 04:55 |
| S4nD3r | what I must to do? | 04:55 |
| S4nD3r | cry? | 04:55 |
| wgrant | tyler_d1: Runlevels don't really exist, so you don't. | 04:55 |
| S4nD3r | format? | 04:56 |
| S4nD3r | buy new laptop | 04:56 |
| tyler_d1 | wgrant: so what is ctrl-alt f1 through f7.. | 04:56 |
| WACOMalt | S4nD3r: obviously no one know the answer. I'd wait and ask again later, or post ont he forums | 04:56 |
| wgrant | tyler_d1: Those are nothing at all to do with runlevels. | 04:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | tyler_d, those are virtual-console -- totally separate from runlevels | 04:56 |
| bryan_ | also another thing that is weird in 9.10 is the login screen, once a user is selected it takes 5 seconds or more to prompt for password. is anyone else seeing that? | 04:56 |
| tyler_d1 | wgrant: ok... | 04:57 |
| S4nD3r | ... | 04:57 |
| S4nD3r | maybe formatting | 04:57 |
| WACOMalt | sorry :/ | 04:57 |

| pwnst_R | but after a couple of reboots (fresh install) it went away | 04:57 |
| S4nD3r | sorry | 04:57 |
| FuRom | I have a couple of errors with my hard drive... I am using a 320 gb drive and I'm only seeing 289 gb with the partition and swap in system monitor. I look in the Palimpsest Disk Utility, I find that it does know I have a 320 gb hard disk. There are two warnings when I click "more info". It says "Reallocated Sector Count" and "Current Pending Sector Count" in red. Does anyone know how to fix these problems... or how I can begin using my full h | 04:57 |
| bryan_ | pwnst_R, it just stopped after a while? or after updates | 04:57 |
| FuRom | ard drive capacity. | 04:57 |
| wgrant | tyler_d1: Servers don't have gdm installed. | 04:57 |
| pwnst_R | it was after the updates | 04:58 |
| pwnst_R | but... | 04:58 |
| pwnst_R | like second time booting | 04:58 |
| pwnst_R | was pissing me off | 04:58 |
| pwnst_R | but all is good onw | 04:58 |
| tyler_d1 | wgrant: so you would have to install server then apt-get gdm?? | 04:58 |
| pwnst_R | *now even | 04:58 |
| FloodBot2 | pwnst_R: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:58 |
| wgrant | tyler_d1: No. What are you trying to do? | 04:58 |
| napster | Anybody can help me with emerald...? | 04:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | FuRom, i think your 289GB is the 320GB! see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive#Capacity_measurements for further explanation of HD sizes | 04:59 |
| bryan_ | hmm so it just started working correctly, well i hope that happens here as i have no more updates available and it is becoming annoying | 04:59 |
| scunizi | tyler_d1: if you install server and what a gui sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop .. or gnome | 04:59 |
| Frozen-Solid | how do you enable virtual desktops in ubuntu netbook remix? | 05:00 |
| bibinou | leaving, see you | 05:00 |

| drawde_ | how do i do it from terminal? | 05:02 |
| armersuender | aptitude should do it | 05:02 |
| WACOMalt | how can I skip the windows bootloader and go strait to grub on a wubi install? | 05:02 |
| tyler_d1 | emma: what did you change? / do? | 05:02 |
| tag | apt-get | 05:02 |
| yoques_ | Hi | 05:02 |
| WACOMalt | hi | 05:02 |
| wgrant | emma: You could also probably just add 'text' to the kernel command line to temporarily boot into multi-user text mode. | 05:03 |
| emma | tyler_d1: mv /etc/init/gdm.conf /etc/init/gdm.conf-disabled | 05:03 |
| emma | as per wgrant's suggestion | 05:03 |
| S4nD3r | already I need help in these problem http://pastebin.com/d23b97ba0 | 05:03 |
| armersuender | @drawde_ type sudo apt-get install lirc- | 05:03 |
| courpse | drawde_, sudo apt-get remove lirc | 05:03 |
| FuManchu | lilo from the 9.10 alternate cd worked | 05:03 |
| drawde_ | which one lol | 05:03 |
| yoques_ | what do you have to do to solve a problem with a kernel panic? | 05:03 |
| armersuender | oh, yeah, I guess remove works to.. : ) | 05:03 |
| tyler_d1 | emma: excellent, wgrant seems to know quite alot about the backend... gj | 05:03 |
| emma | wgrant: is there something different about the command line mode I'm in now and a multiuser text mode? | 05:04 |
| frostburn3 | yoques_, learn c | 05:04 |
| courpse | armersuender, works too? he asked how to remove it, :) | 05:04 |
| courpse | install doesnt remove. | 05:04 |
| yoques_ | ""invalid compressed format (err=1)" | 05:04 |
| S4nD3r | Why these broadcom wireless card are so hard to install? | 05:04 |
| armersuender | courpse, install with a '-' at the end of the package name removes it.. | 05:05 |

| wolf23 | Magnesium: what is hda sound card? | 05:05 |
| courpse | armersuender, oh really? i'd of figured it'd look for 'lirc-' in the repos. | 05:05 |
| wgrant | emma: No. | 05:05 |
| WACOMalt | Anyone here have experience with Wubi installs who could help me out? | 05:05 |
| ranjan | hi there i am looking for any text to speach tool i am using ubuntu 9.04 as my os .... can any body have information then please pass it on ... | 05:05 |
| Colonel_Panik_ | yoques_, remove the kernel; that will stop it | 05:06 |
| armersuender | courpse, haha yeah, you'd think so, but since no packages end in a '-', apt-get uses it for it's own purposes.. : ) | 05:06 |
| WACOMalt | ranjan: only way I know of would be wine and some windows tts apps | 05:06 |
| yoques_ | Colonel_Panik_, how? | 05:06 |
| Colonel_Panik_ | yoques_, *smile* | 05:06 |
| courpse | armersuender, Cool, good to know. | 05:07 |
| Magnesium | wolf23: It's a type of sound card manufactured by Intel...run lspci | grep Audio to see what you have | 05:07 |
| yoques_ | i have only one kernel | 05:07 |
| WACOMalt | Colonel_Panik: :P | 05:07 |
| yoques_ | where or how can I find now an older kernel and restore the system? | 05:07 |
| Magnesium | WACOMalt: Yeah, I used Wubi...what's the problem? | 05:07 |
| pshr_ | any way to clear the ram as in Tune up utilities.. flushes the total RAM any way to do it through unix command ? | 05:07 |
| wgrant | Colonel_Panik_: Please don't suggest that sort of thing. Some people may actually try it. | 05:07 |
| yoques_ | (I bean install ubuntu 9.04 this same night) | 05:08 |
| WACOMalt | Magnesium: I am trying to skip the windows bootloader completely | 05:08 |
| Magnesium | yoques_: If you have, or can download, an older live cd of ubuntu (like jaunty), you can use that kernel | 05:08 |
| wolf23 | Magnesium: i type lspci | grep Audio and doesnot show me anything | 05:08 |
| WACOMalt | Magnesium: can I remove the windows line from windows' boot.ini file so it just automatically goes to ubuntu and skips the loader? | 05:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | ranjan, have you checked out festival - it's in the repos | 05:08 |
| S4nD3r | hey | 05:08 |

| S4nD3r | why ubuntu becomes worst in recongnizing of hardware | 05:09 |
| tyler_d1 | Magnesium: lspci | grep -i audio | 05:09 |
| courpse | wont apt-get --reinstall install linux-generic reinstall the kernel? | 05:09 |
| yoques_ | how can I change the kernel? | 05:09 |
| S4nD3r | instead of be best | 05:09 |
| pshr_ | any way to clear the ram as in Tune up utilities.. flushes the total RAM any way to do it through unix command ? | 05:09 |
| ranjan | thank you | 05:09 |
| ranjan | for this information | 05:09 |
| Magnesium | WACOMalt: That's true, although I wouldn't recommend it. I would just change the timeout to 1. | 05:09 |
| S4nD3r | the evolution is what we wait for a good system | 05:09 |
| S4nD3r | not downgrade | 05:09 |
| Omlette | pshr_: Usually, there is no need to clear the RAM, as Linux is especially efficient at memory management. | 05:09 |
| Magnesium | wolf23: try with a lowercase audio. | 05:09 |

| Magnesium | WACOMalt: The reason I suggest not deleting the windows entry is that you then won't be able to boot into windows. | 05:11 |
| S4nD3r | But, the problem is... my wireless card, worked in 8.10 | 05:11 |
| S4nD3r | I installed 9.10 | 05:12 |
| S4nD3r | this, stopped to work | 05:12 |
| wgrant | monster_: It's installed by default. | 05:12 |
| Dan48p | hi is there anyway to hide things in grub so that i don't have a bunch of options that i never choose to boot? | 05:12 |
| wgrant | monster_: It's part of the core apache2 package. | 05:12 |
| WACOMalt | Magnesium: Grub shows windows though.. or wait that would loop back to the windows bootloader wouldn't it... | 05:12 |
| S4nD3r | I think, that would be easier keep it working | 05:12 |
| yoques_ | S4nD3r, 9.10 is giving someone problems like yours | 05:12 |
| WACOMalt | Magnesium: gotcha :P will not do this then. | 05:12 |
| S4nD3r | not, make it stop to work | 05:12 |

| drawde_ | hey last question for the night.. i reinstalled lirc, but it's not popping up with the menu.. how do i pull it up? | 05:13 |
| S4nD3r | I will try it insm0d | 05:13 |
| Magnesium | wolf23: None that I can think of...you might take a look at xe-emulator.com, though...its another simulator that might work. A quick google search showed how to get it working on ubuntu, and the people said it's alot better than gfceu. | 05:13 |

| yoques_ | Magnesium, OK | 05:14 |
| courpse | drawde_, type lirc in terminal. | 05:14 |
| WACOMalt | daevski: if still not working... you made the flash wrong :P | 05:14 |
| FuManchu | s4, if i left-click on the network icon at the top right of the screen i can put a tick mark on my wireless or the neighbors | 05:14 |

| dfgas | any ideas | 05:15 |

| S4nD3r | Just a stupid question.... how to reload a module | 05:17 |
| WACOMalt | ack. | 05:17 |
| d3matt | it seems like it's trying to mount /dev/sr0 which is my cdrom and not my usb key | 05:17 |
| monster_ | just about to pass out, whats your email so we can catch up | 05:17 |
| daevski | Colonel_Panik_: Students :-\ | 05:17 |
| WACOMalt | what is the newest version of adobe suite apps that work in wine? | 05:17 |
| d3matt | it takes a few seconds for it to see the key after the initramfs goes and looks for it | 05:17 |
| tyler_d1 | nic1: then you will have to just pipe your output to a file | 05:17 |
| yoques_ | Magnesium, I'm in the jaunty CD live | 05:18 |
| d3matt | i know it's not gzipped or bzipped cpio but I can't figure out what it is | 05:18 |
| drawde_ | courpse: any idea? | 05:18 |
| S4nD3r | insm0d, I did "cross your fingers and reboot" | 05:18 |

| d3matt | anyone? | 05:20 |
| nic1 | tyler_d: how can i pipe? wil i be able to see the screen after piping? | 05:20 |
| WACOMalt | I know flash x64 on 9.10 x64, in firefox works .. sort of good, but in chrome it's junk. can't click anything | 05:20 |
| wolf23 | Magnesium: coz i get back to 9.04, now how could i upgrade another time to karmic? | 05:21 |
| aperson | WACOMalt, a temporary fix is to turn off compiz | 05:21 |
| arsin | wolf23: System>admin>Update Manager | 05:21 |
| daevski | Colonel_Panik_: well, most flash is working, it's just this course that doesn't seem to respond. It was a made a year or two ago, so it might just not work with 64bit with the standard of code used to make the flash | 05:21 |
| aperson | it isn't compiz's fault though | 05:21 |
| WACOMalt | asperon: really? wow I didn't think that was the issue | 05:21 |
| tyler_d1 | nic1: not sure what you would like a screen capture of, however I would assume that you typed a command to get the output, if thats the case a simple command >> somefile.txt would place that output into a text file so you could view it later. | 05:21 |
| daevski | Colonel_Panik_: I'm going to try 32bit and maybe Jaunty also. thanks for your time. | 05:21 |
| aperson | WACOMalt, it isnt compiz, it's gnome afaik that's screwing it up | 05:21 |

| Magnesium | yoques: Hmmm...what files are in casper/boot, then? | 05:25 |
| courpse | karmic_police, Why would you want to? you will loose lots of qual. | 05:25 |
| aperson | karmic_police, ffmpeg? | 05:25 |
| aperson | err | 05:25 |

| aperson | karmic_police, I mean... gah, brain fart | 05:25 |
| karmic_police | because i have a 500gb hdd full of mp3 and just want them all the same... also my car stereo will not play flacc | 05:26 |
| WACOMalt | karmic_police: not sure if this page has anything you will find useful http://flac.sourceforge.net/download.html | 05:26 |
| Magnesium | yoques: Okay, just a second...I'm doing this by memory. | 05:26 |
| d3matt | karmic, did you try audacity? | 05:26 |
| FuManchu | karmic_police, sound converter, maybe | 05:27 |
| karmic_police | i know flac is better quality but would take a lot of work to convert all my music to one standard. that and i want to be able to listen to it on all my players | 05:27 |
| d3matt | I don't remember if it does batch conversions or not, but you could do one file at a time with it | 05:27 |
| qjqqyy | audacity is good | 05:27 |
| aperson | karmic_police, consult: http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/127583 | 05:27 |
| aperson | and I guess I did mean ffmpeg | 05:27 |
| WACOMalt | is there a deb package for audacity around? | 05:27 |
| aperson | it's in the repos | 05:27 |
| WACOMalt | oh cool | 05:27 |
| qjqqyy | it is in repos | 05:27 |
| qjqqyy | the deb | 05:28 |
| aperson | I wouldn't recommend it for audio conversion personally | 05:28 |
| Magnesium | yoques: I'm starting ubuntu from livecd in virtualbox so I can go step by step. | 05:28 |
| aperson | it's more for audio editing | 05:28 |

| qjqqyy | Magnesium: then u reinstall virtualbox because the kernel module thing | 05:34 |
| qjqqyy | Magnesium: yes | 05:34 |
| Guest22682 | u from WACO? | 05:34 |
| Guest22682 | sorry off topic | 05:34 |
| Magnesium | qjqqyy: Yeah, that's what I figured...running /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup is supposed to recompile the module, but in 2.6.31 it doesn't work. Thanks! | 05:35 |
| WACOMalt | Guest22682: OH USA why? | 05:35 |
| yoques | Magnesium: i can't see casper directory, but I saw vmlinuz and initrd.img | 05:35 |

| losha | Jester05: I'm not sure. I think it has something to do with mythbuntu just being a bunch of guys while canonical is a real company.... | 05:47 |
| Jester05 | Guest22682, lets talk in PM.. its too much of a bitch to talk in here w/ u using a guest name | 05:48 |
| mneptok | Jester05: the mp3 codec is a patented technology, and to include it you have to pay Fraunhofer/Thomson a license fee. | 05:48 |
| bryan_ | wow xubuntu 9.10 is really buggy | 05:48 |
| WACOMalt | qjqqyy: will that also delete the windows folders it added during install? | 05:48 |
| Magnesium | yoques: Okay...I'm a the desktop...here we go. | 05:48 |
| qjqqyy | WACOMalt: YES | 05:48 |
| Guest22682 | Jester05: i dont know how to talk pm from command line | 05:48 |
| yoques | ;P | 05:48 |
| nic1 | what does the command import MyScreenshot.png do? | 05:48 |
| qjqqyy | WACOMalt: it will delete $HOME/.wine | 05:48 |
| WACOMalt | should i do the beta on wine? | 05:49 |
| Jordan_U | Guest22682: Are you using irssi? | 05:49 |
| Guest22682 | yes | 05:49 |
| bryan_ | i was copying files in qui and changing desktop, all of the sudden copying closes along with windows and it did not appear the xfce reloaded | 05:49 |
| Jester05 | Guest22682, i have digital cable, there are a couple things i can do too | 05:49 |
| mneptok | Guest22682: /msg Jester05 | 05:49 |
| Jordan_U | Guest22682: /msg nick message | 05:49 |
| Magnesium | yoques: No kidding...that was stressful! Okay, click Places, then xxx GB media, the partition that points to your karmic install. | 05:49 |
| napster | what is the difference between usb-creator and unetbootin..? | 05:49 |
| WACOMalt | is Wine beta very buggy? should I stick with stable? | 05:49 |
| Jordan_U | Guest22682: Then use /window number to switch to that conversation | 05:49 |
| qjqqyy | i dunno | 05:50 |
| yoques | Magnesium: no karmic install | 05:50 |
| yoques | jaunty install | 05:50 |
| qjqqyy | i used the wine repos | 05:50 |
| WACOMalt | ah | 05:50 |
| awnstudio | 9.04 wont install either, argh | 05:50 |
| Magnesium | yoques: Ohhh! Okay, well then, click the entry cooresponding to your jaunty install. | 05:50 |
| zombik | Hi, im getting hard kernel panics after upgrading from jaunty to karmic on my dell insprion 9400. is there any way to debug why its happening? | 05:50 |
| Psykus | hey all, trying to use unetbootin to convert a ubuntu iso to boot from an external harddrive, it says it installs fine but when I go to boot from it I get a message saying 'invalid partition table' or something similar, i have one partition on the drive now set up for the installer, it's set as active partition, and formatted as fat32, any ideas? | 05:50 |
| ubuntu | hi | 05:50 |
| yoques | ok | 05:50 |
| napster | ubuntu: HI | 05:50 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Jacquesdupontd | ||
| Jacquesdupontd | i just made a usb bootable | 05:51 |
| Jacquesdupontd | its working perfectly | 05:51 |
| qjqqyy | zombik: just go recovery mode and ... | 05:51 |
| nic1 | what does the command import MyScreenshot.png do? | 05:51 |
| qjqqyy | Jacquesdupontd: USB bootable, i had 3 | 05:51 |
| napster | Jacquesdupontd: I found it from your nickname...! | 05:51 |
| WACOMalt | qjqqyy: after complete removal, and reinstall, the Wine menu is not back | 05:51 |
| Jacquesdupontd | but usb-disk-creator is not working in karmic | 05:51 |
| Magnesium | yoques: What folder is shown in the titlebar? disk, disk-1, etc. | 05:51 |
| qjqqyy | WACOMalt: ?AF?E#$#$ | 05:51 |
| The_Journey | I need help, ubuntu keeps freezing randomly and the only way I can escape is doing a hard reboot | 05:51 |
| WACOMalt | qjqqyy: O_o | 05:51 |
| napster | Jacquesdupontd: You got an error..? | 05:51 |
| qjqqyy | Jacquesdupontd: there is a way to install into USB from windoze | 05:52 |
| yoques | i'm in " disk " | 05:52 |
| SetiAmon | is there a way i can get karmic to go back to whatever sound system it had in jaunty because in jaunty i had no problem but no matter what I can not fix the audio distortions in karmic | 05:52 |
| XVampireX | Uhm, if there's any chance someone helps me with the webcam, it works great in karmic but there's just one little thing that doesn't work well and that's the led lights... any way to configure them in ubuntu? | 05:52 |
| Jacquesdupontd | and i found a solution, you have to sudo apt-get remove usb-disk-creator-* and get it back from the package site and then install the deb file and it works perfectly, i've seen lot of forums talking about the problem and no solution i just did that and it worked perfectly | 05:52 |
| napster | qjqqyy: Unetbootin...? | 05:52 |
| Jester05 | Guest22682, if you have digital cable u can use a digital QAM tuner and get all of the un-encrypted digital channels no prob.. for the encrypted channels you can do 1 of 2 things.. you can "A" get a converter box from your cable provider that allows for the streaming of video across firewire which makes it essentially function as a tuner itself, or "B" you can get a digital tuner that allows for a CAM card (Cable Card) you pay to rent t | 05:52 |
| Jester05 | he card from your cable provider just like you do the box, may be cheaper | 05:52 |
| qjqqyy | is there a way to "roll back" pulseaudio???? | 05:52 |
| Jacquesdupontd | but i come for another question, i putted xubuntu on the usbflashdisk | 05:52 |
| qjqqyy | usb disks use a casper-rw file | 05:53 |
| yoques | Magnesium: i'm in disk | 05:53 |
| Magnesium | yoques: alrighty...that's good. Now open Terminal... | 05:53 |
| qjqqyy | is there a way to "roll back" pulseaudio???? | 05:53 |
| qjqqyy | into the jaunty one? | 05:53 |
| napster | Anybody know what is the difference between usb-creator and unetbootin..? | 05:53 |
| petsounds | hi, at what time #ubuntu-classroom open for discussions? thanks | 05:53 |
| yoques | ok Magnesium | 05:53 |
| Gun_Smoke | qjqqyy: leave it for alsa, pulse is always full of problems. | 05:53 |
| qike006 | hello,every one | 05:53 |
| Jacquesdupontd | this usbflashdisk is now like a live cd that i can install things on, but the startup is as slow as a live cd and i would like that it boots as fast as if it was an hard disk with xubuntu on it | 05:53 |
| The_Journey | ubuntu keeps freezing randomly and the only way I can escape is doing a hard reboot, anyone know what could be causing this? | 05:54 |
| qjqqyy | Gun_Smoke: ALSA crashes, only OSS works | 05:54 |
| Jacquesdupontd | maybe i should some kind of parameters for launching it ? | 05:54 |
| qjqqyy | Gun_Smoke: HDA Intel 8888 is weird | 05:54 |
| DanaG | Jacquesdupontd: You can just plain install to a USB device, you know. | 05:54 |
| qjqqyy | HDA Intel 8888 is weird | 05:54 |
| blueskiesokie | duh, ok they use a nested xml to make the wallpaper that changes every 30 minutes. | 05:54 |
| qjqqyy | it makes sound | 05:54 |
| yoques | Magnesium: i'm in terminal. | 05:55 |
| DanaG | Remember the igoogle teahouse theme? I've taken that and stuck it into the same XML thingy. | 05:55 |
| gigasoft | i have problem opening dvd with many's options | 05:55 |
| qjqqyy | HDA Intel 8888 xine driver is weird because after upgrading to karmic the thing makes sound but even if i on the sound at 100% with my speaker full blast it is still very soft help!! | 05:55 |
| DanaG | One of these days I'll do the same for the larger, gmail one. | 05:55 |
| gigasoft | "Could not open location; you might not have | 05:55 |
| qjqqyy | ; | 05:55 |
| blueskiesokie | only thing i seen that "slows" the boot off usb is loading the "locales" | 05:55 |
| Jacquesdupontd | DanaG, did i asked that ? i want that it can still be an installer for people who will like it, anyway i wont talk about my life i'm asking if we can reduce the time of booting when selecting try ubuntu to boot as i'm also using it as persistent | 05:55 |
| qjqqyy | Jacquesdupontd: persistent is buggy | 05:56 |
| napster | The_Journey: Got any errors | 05:56 |
| napster | ? | 05:56 |
| qjqqyy | Jacquesdupontd: i used it before | 05:56 |
| eL_pSycHo | blueskiesokie, what are you talking about changing wallpapers every few mins? can i do that in Karmic? | 05:56 |
| blueskiesokie | i second the persistent is buggy part | 05:56 |
| The_Journey | napsters, my screen would just freeze, only the mouse moves but clicking doesn't work | 05:56 |
| Magnesium | yoques: Type sudo cp /cdrom/casper/vmlinuz /media/disk/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-generic | 05:56 |
| san123 | can anyone please help me i wont to share internet with my friend through LAN how do i give him proxcy? he is in windows and i am in ubuntu | 05:56 |
| DanaG | hmm, beats me... the biggest issue with a USB stick is the read speeds. | 05:56 |
| Magnesium | yoques: See, I knew there was a casper in there somewhere! | 05:56 |
| blueskiesokie | the "cosmos" one is a "pack" that changes every 30 minutes | 05:56 |
| The_Journey | napsters: I've been trying all the ubuntu CDs but everyone of them have the freezing problem | 05:57 |
| i_is_broke | can someone tell me how to chain load lucid? | 05:57 |
| Jacquesdupontd | i don't know why he said that it's working perfectly for now | 05:57 |
| Magnesium | !lucid | i_is_broke | 05:57 |
| ubottu | i_is_broke: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l02bhwofEqw for announcement video. | 05:57 |
| losha | Guest22682: or use an old hauppage analog card with an old cable box and record low-fi... | 05:57 |
| yoques | Magnesium: I see it, but it was not visible in windows to me | 05:57 |
| eL_pSycHo | san123, i dont think that matters in youre using a router. are you? | 05:57 |
| Jacquesdupontd | so DanaG you seems to have great ideas would you know how to boot fast on a live cd ? | 05:57 |
| yoques | I did | 05:57 |
| i_is_broke | Magnesium, i already know that..i want to know how to do it. | 05:57 |
| san123 | how do i share internet with my friend who is connected through LAN? | 05:57 |
| san123 | no i am not using router | 05:58 |
| losha | !ics | san123 | 05:58 |
| ubottu | san123: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 05:58 |
| Magnesium | i_is_broke: Yeah, I thought that would tell you the lucid channel...its like #ubuntu+1 or something. This is the Karmic Channel. | 05:58 |
| DanaG | hmm, unfortunately, I have to go to bed... but here's one way to benchmark a usb stick read speed: sudo dd if=/dev/disk/by-id/usb-WHATEVER of=/dev/null (hopefully it'll tab-complete) | 05:58 |
| WACOMalt | I edited my menu config file, how can I restart gnome so it will see the changes? | 05:58 |
| san123 | well he is in windows xp so will this work? | 05:58 |
| Magnesium | yoques: I don't understand...could you execute that command in terminal? | 05:58 |
| eL_pSycHo | blueskiesokie, i thought it was... is there a way if you know, to change the time it takes to change? do you know how i can create my own packs? if you know where to get this info just point me in that direction. | 05:58 |
| DanaG | that says "read the thing raw and do nothing with the data you read." | 05:58 |
| i_is_broke | Magnesium, no this is the support channel for ubuntu. and ubuntu+1 is not open yet. | 05:58 |
| DanaG | It should tell you the read speed. | 05:59 |
| yoques | Magnesium: It's good, it made | 05:59 |
| Magnesium | i_is_broke: Ahhh...I see. Okay then, well, I can't help anyway...sorry! | 05:59 |
| blueskiesokie | you gotta edit the xml file manually as far as i know. /usr/share/backgrounds/cosmos/background-1.xml | 05:59 |
| yoques | I'm watching it's copied | 05:59 |
| yoques | now, ha | 06:00 |
| Psykus | hey all, trying to use unetbootin to convert a ubuntu iso to boot from an external harddrive, it says it installs fine but when I go to boot from it I get a message saying 'invalid partition table' or something similar, i have one partition on the drive now set up for the installer, it's set as active partition, and formatted as fat32, any ideas? | 06:00 |
| yoques | *what I have to do? can I prove it now? | 06:00 |
| blueskiesokie | default is 1795 for time and 5 for transition time | 06:00 |
| eL_pSycHo | blueskiesokie, thanks.. maybe from the infor i find there i can create my own. | 06:00 |
| blueskiesokie | yea. | 06:00 |
| Magnesium | yoques: Great. Now do sudo cp /cdrom/casper/initrd.gz /media/disk/boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-11-generic | 06:00 |
| san123 | I have only one wired network or only one network card i get both LAN and Net from the same wire | 06:00 |

| san123 | my friends internet has expired and i want to give him proxy what do i do? | 06:01 |
| WACOMalt | how to open menu editor as root? | 06:01 |
| blueskiesokie | your backgrounds that show up in the panel are in ~/.gnome2/backgrounds.xml | 06:01 |
| yoques | Magnesium: OK | 06:01 |
| san123 | can anyone help me? | 06:02 |
| Jacquesdupontd | someone could help me ? i'm sure it would take 1 minutes of your time | 06:02 |
| Magnesium | yoques: OK, just to check, what does ls /media/disk/boot give? | 06:02 |
| yoques | Magnesium: I don't understand | 06:02 |
| Jacquesdupontd | how to boot normal on a usb live disk persistant ? | 06:02 |
| courpse | san123, He still needs a internet connection to connect to your proxy you run. | 06:02 |
| blueskiesokie | if you look in that, specifically "cosmos", you create another item similar pointing to your custom xml containing your pics? should work | 06:03 |
| yoques | ahhh! "LS" | 06:03 |
| yoques | ok | 06:03 |
| === atom_ is now known as Guest41563 | ||
| Magnesium | yoques: Type ls /media/disk/boot into the terminal. You should see those files there. | 06:03 |
| san123 | no normaly we give proxy to each other through LAN? i run CCproxy in windows but now i am in ubuntu | 06:03 |
| napster | Anybody know what is the difference between usb-creator and unetbootin..? | 06:03 |
| eL_pSycHo | blueskiesokie, the values for duration are in seconds right? | 06:03 |

| san123 | ya! | 06:03 |
| SandGorgon | anybody know how to get the Davicom DEC Tulip ethernet driver to work on hardy/jaunty ? | 06:03 |

| san123 | courpse, what do i do | 06:04 |
| yoques | Magnesium: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/311252/ | 06:04 |
| courpse | san123, Why do you need a proxy to get him on the net? | 06:04 |
| san123 | because he has to register for some important work and he doesnt have net | 06:04 |
| courpse | Why not just plug him to the router/switch? | 06:04 |
| python_root | hi all | 06:05 |
| san123 | no thats not possible he lives atleast 20 buildings far from me | 06:05 |

| courpse | san123, You said you were on the same LAN? | 06:06 |
| Jacquesdupontd | how to boot normal on a usb live disk persistant ? | 06:06 |
| san123 | ya! but not that same building | 06:06 |
| Jacquesdupontd | please someone | 06:06 |

| courpse | san123, Then have him connect to the router via wifi then? | 06:06 |
| Jacquesdupontd | there must be a way to boot just like your hard disk an a usb bootable disk ? | 06:06 |
| python_root | i have a problem i installed theme for cursor and now i cannot find them in appearance and settings me using gnome ubuntu | 06:06 |
| san123 | see we all internet users are conected through a twisted wire wich connects to our pppoe server | 06:06 |
| san123 | so that has created a LAN | 06:06 |
| Magnesium | yoques: About 3/4 of the way down you should see ## ## End Default-Options ##. After that will be the different kernels grub knows how to boot into. In a sec I'll give a pastebin to add right after that line. | 06:07 |
| python_root | i have a problem i installed theme for cursor and now i cannot find them in appearance and settings me using gnome ubuntu | 06:07 |
| Jacquesdupontd | d6chung, could you help me ? i just made a persistant usb disk and i would like to boot faster on it than "try ubuntu" option | 06:07 |
| eL_pSycHo | san123, you're confusing people... try to clarify what you mean... LAN is a Local Area Network... Local means youre connected together in the same router, switch, etc. | 06:07 |
| yoques | Magnesium: OK. I wait :) | 06:07 |
| d6chung | Jacquesdupontd: You mean making a live "CD" with a USB disk? | 06:07 |
| python_root | some one i am pissed up here | 06:08 |
| python_root | help me | 06:08 |
| san123 | eL_pSycHo, i dont know much about networking i am not engeneer i am a commerce student | 06:08 |
| courpse | san123, Aight, well i dont see why if you are on the same LAN then how he cant connect directly to the switch/router, but anyway, Squid is a web proxy. | 06:08 |
| yoques | Jacquesdupontd: have you an USB? | 06:08 |
| voidmage | oh cool | 06:08 |
| voidmage | ubuntu now tracks my keyboard's batteries | 06:09 |

| Jacquesdupontd | yoques, yes | 06:09 |
| Magnesium | yoques: Actually, just tell me what you see after that ## ## End Default Options line. | 06:09 |
| Jacquesdupontd | yoques, a xubuntu from a gnome karmic 9.10 and it worked perfectly | 06:09 |
| WACOMalt | *smacks head* | 06:09 |
| eL_pSycHo | san123, that is kind of confusing since you are all connected why are you the only one with internet?? | 06:09 |
| astechgeek | is there a way to have the currently playing song displayed in the pidgin status message? I thought I saw something on that somwhere regarding a certain player but cant remember which one | 06:09 |
| bung | my computer can play games, and ssh to other servers, i can ping a VDS i have in my hosts file... but if i try to ping google or any website, i get nothing. firefox just hangs on looking up server. DNS problem? Help anyone? | 06:09 |
| san123 | courpse, how can Squid proxy work? it needs internet in both machines ? | 06:10 |
| yoques | because it lets you to make a persistetemnt USB startup disk directly, in System → adminstraton | 06:10 |
| TrueSongMedia | yay finally I'm in | 06:10 |
| Jacquesdupontd | yoques, i'm on the bootable usb right now (xubuntu) but i'm sure i can add argument to boot faster on the option "try ubuntu" | 06:10 |
| courpse | Well. if you connect to the proxy server over LAN to get net. | 06:10 |
| TrueSongMedia | What's the deal with the ubuntu-read-topic junk | 06:10 |
| san123 | eL_pSycHo, NO! man! i am not the only one with internet he also had internet but limited bandwith of 1gb that got finished | 06:10 |
| courpse | but i still really dont see why you both are on LAN, but he has no net, but you do. | 06:10 |
| courpse | ohhh. | 06:10 |
| eL_pSycHo | astechgeek, open synaptic and search for "pidgin" and look for a plugin to do that there. | 06:11 |
| courpse | san123, See, this is what you should of said alot earlier. | 06:11 |
| Jacquesdupontd | d6chung, I DID made the usb bootable disk it's working perfectly i'm writting to you from it i just want it to boot faster not like a live cd | 06:11 |

| Jacquesdupontd | yoques, do you understand have you got any idea ? | 06:11 |
| WACOMalt | nm, I just did | 06:11 |
| courpse | When setting Squid up, set it to listen on your local IP, then he can connect and you can forward to him the inet. | 06:11 |
| SandGorgon | anybody know how to get the Davicom DEC Tulip ethernet driver to work on hardy/jaunty ? | 06:12 |
| Magnesium | yoques: Alright, you're good then...You should be able to reboot and be in the old kernel. | 06:12 |
| yoques | Jacquesdupontd: I can't understand exactely what do you need | 06:12 |
| eL_pSycHo | san123, well.. if you say you got this working before ok... what program did you use on windows? | 06:12 |
| san123 | courpse, ok i will try thanks for help | 06:12 |
| san123 | eL_pSycHo, i used CCProxy in windows | 06:12 |
| courpse | san123, Squid is also in the repo's. | 06:12 |
| astechgeek | whoa cool a facebook plugin lol | 06:12 |

| yoques_ | I LOVE YOU! | 06:14 |
| Jacquesdupontd | yoques, seems hard to get simple things here, you kow when you boot with a live cd even for trying ubuntu, it must put some argument to work on all machines and to have all normal settings and also to have the possibility to install ubuntu from it, you know that ? then if i don't need all this i'm sure i can boot (maybe with different args) faster/normally with my usb live bootable disk persistant ? (now tell me if you dont kno | 06:15 |
| Jacquesdupontd | w anything about usb live key cause you don't need to try to help me then) | 06:15 |

| Jordan_U | Jacquesdupontd: Most of the hardware detection scripts that used to be in the LiveCD have been replaced by things like Xorg auto configuring itself at boot, so a normall install will work on pretty much any computer you move it to, just like the LiveCD | 06:17 |

| scarra3 | What are some ways that you can customize ubuntu | 06:29 |
| hassanakevazir | bung, actually , first make sure that it is a DNS problem: ping 66.249.91.104 and www.google.com | 06:30 |
| bung | where do these 4.2.2.[1-9] addresses come from if you dont mind me asking | 06:30 |
| bung | hassanakevazir: ip works domain doesnt | 06:30 |
| astechgeek | bung: try nslookup | 06:31 |
| hassanakevazir | bung, they are public DNS servers as far as I know | 06:31 |
| frostburn3 | astechgeek, bung, i'd use dig, you can use different dns servers, 4.2.2.[1-9] are level3 dns servers | 06:31 |
| frostburn3 | e.g. dig google.com @4.2.2.2 | 06:32 |

| indus | Cammy: use the command sudo and then whatevet youwant | 06:48 |
| pingveno | indus: It looks like I'll have to skip. With compositing, X goes up to using about 20 - 50% of the CPU. | 06:48 |

| frostburn3 | obiwan_, yes | 07:01 |

| Bryce1 | MouseShaving: how would i do that then? | 07:11 |
| ToddJG | VanessaE you SHOULD have some older kernels to boot from in your grub panel | 07:11 |

| indus | coffee makes you jittery though | 07:25 |
| Trezker | smarties, so when upgrading I'm afraid you have to be prepared to redo some of your customizations | 07:25 |
| * SpiceMan is used to #httpd and such | 07:25 | |
| smarties | trezker : ur right about that that's wat i was most concered about not doing lol | 07:25 |
| jong_ | nathan_: ok im consulting it now | 07:25 |
| SpiceMan | and I thought I was on #linux XD | 07:25 |
| ToddJG | SpiceMan, I am having a problem with cisco_vpn... I am getting the kernel mod not loaded error - and modprob indicates it is not loaded, yet it is there.... still works under jaunty tho | 07:25 |

| indus | smarties: if you have added any extra repos, maybe try hash it out | 07:26 |
| mengu | how can i install geany 0.18 on jaunty? | 07:26 |
| SpiceMan | ToddJG: ie: it works in a different kernel version? | 07:27 |
| ToddJG | yeah... | 07:27 |
| SpiceMan | ToddJG: that would mean that you need to recompile the culprit | 07:27 |
| scarra3 | Anyone have an idea | 07:27 |
| ToddJG | :( | 07:27 |
| SpiceMan | (or get a binary for your current kernel if available) | 07:27 |
| ToddJG | was afraid of that - I don't have the source unless I am ON the vpn... lol | 07:27 |
| indus | !who | ToddJG | 07:27 |
| ubottu | ToddJG: 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 :) | 07:27 |

| vermapratyush | please help | 07:32 |
| icarus-c | asdz: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst as root | 07:32 |
| asdz | icarus-c : default=0 what i need to do ? | 07:33 |
| frostburn3 | vermapratyush, what happened ? it looks like / is not on 8,2 | 07:33 |
| ToddJG | indus, btw - thanks for tip ;) | 07:33 |
| VanessaE | vermapratyush, sounds like your filesystem is not recognized | 07:33 |
| icarus-c | asdz: default=0 will default to the first item | 07:33 |
| shiro | what a farce | 07:33 |
| VanessaE | (lack of a proper driver, perhas) | 07:33 |
| asdz | i change it to 4 but its the same | 07:33 |
| Bryce1 | jong_: it says there is a password required for <windows ip address> | 07:33 |
| icarus-c | asdz: 4 will default to the 5th | 07:33 |
| asdz | oh | 07:33 |
| asdz | and how i change the time ? | 07:34 |
| Bryce1 | jong_: and asks for username and domain and password input | 07:34 |
| indus | vermapratyush: did you edit grub? | 07:34 |
| Hasanibrahim | Hello i am trying to make a new partition to my oc. But when i try to use gpated, it's saying me check file system ob dev/sda1 for errors and fix them | 07:34 |
| gnubie | asdz; install startup manager and you can change the time | 07:34 |
| icarus-c | asdz: timeout time_in_second | 07:34 |
| Hasanibrahim | e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda1 | 07:34 |
| asdz | i changed to 3 but it 10 | 07:34 |
| asdz | its weird | 07:34 |
| icarus-c | asdz: oops, look like it is not default=0, but default 0 | 07:34 |
| Hasanibrahim | what's this ? | 07:34 |
| jong_ | Bryce1: it seems you can connect to windows machine, however samba needs a password to connect to..can u put a temporary password on the windows machine? | 07:34 |
| frostburn3 | Hasanibrahim, is /dev/sda1 a ext file system, if so, use a fsck | 07:35 |
| asdz | so how i change my default | 07:35 |
| === sharperguy2 is now known as sharperguy | ||
| indus | Hasanibrahim: that will check the file system for errors | 07:35 |
| Bryce1 | jong_: yes please wait... | 07:35 |
| Hasanibrahim | i don't know how to do | 07:35 |
| Hasanibrahim | will i wrie on terminal ? | 07:35 |
| indus | Hasanibrahim: y is for fix errors automatic i believe, v is verbose for outputting whats going on etc | 07:35 |
| indus | frostburn3: also, i believe fsck is actually a link to e2fsck? | 07:36 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: open a terminal and tyep that | 07:36 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: you need to be root as well, by adding a "sudo" in front | 07:36 |
| icarus-c | indus: fsck calls e2fsck | 07:36 |
| icarus-c | running e2fsck by itself got more options | 07:36 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: refer to "man e2fsck" | 07:37 |
| jong_ | nathan_: did u follow this procedure? http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=broadcom | 07:37 |
| VanessaE | ok I officially hate grub2. | 07:37 |
| Hasanibrahim | it's doing somethings now. i wrote sudo e2fsck -f-v-y /dev/sda1 | 07:37 |

| astechgeek | nathan_: did you install the firmware that was extracted from your wlan card? | 07:38 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: note that never e2fsck on a mounted partition | 07:38 |
| jong_ | Bryce1: close nautilus and connect again | 07:38 |
| nathan_ | jong_, that is about a deprecated driver | 07:38 |
| Hasanibrahim | icarus-c: you were late :p | 07:38 |
| Bryce1 | jong_: ok | 07:38 |
| === tessa is now known as Contessa | ||

| astechgeek | you need to keep reading dude | 07:38 |
| nathan_ | astechgeek, not sure what you mean. | 07:38 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: e2fsck on a mounted partition could nuke the whole file system | 07:39 |
| astechgeek | then thats why it hasnt worked | 07:39 |
| vermapratyush | unable to boot ubuntu after selecting ubuntu in grub "kernel panic- not syncing : VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (8,2) " | 07:39 |

| astechgeek | youll have to build the kernel with the new module that the fwcutter extracted from your card | 07:39 |
| === anthony is now known as Guest31945 | ||
| icarus-c | vermapratyush: make sure your /etc/fstab is correct | 07:39 |
| astechgeek | Im going to paste a link scroll down to where it says "installing the firmware" | 07:39 |
| Bryce1 | jong_: nope still doesnt allow me to connect | 07:40 |
| astechgeek | http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=b43 | 07:40 |
| smarties5 | indus: it disconnects me if i try to copy the source list here | 07:40 |
| iceroot | is it possible to assign an cpu to a user? e.g. i have 8 cores and 8 users. every user is only allowed to use one core and not two or more. | 07:40 |
| indus | smarties5: iam having some connecion problems too | 07:40 |
| astechgeek | nathan_: it would be good to read the whole page though | 07:40 |
| Bryce1 | jong_: even if i try and click on the workgroup it doesnt allow me to even see the windows pc's | 07:41 |
| jong_ | Bryce1: ok i'm thinking... | 07:41 |
| astechgeek | theres some commands that will help you identify specifics on your card | 07:41 |
| smarties5 | indus : :D so im not the only 1 lol | 07:41 |
| Contessa | iceroot, ..why would you want to do thatv,,,wouldnt it be better to set up a bunch of virtualmachines ? | 07:41 |
| iceroot | Contessa: to much overhead | 07:41 |
| indus | smarties have you tried chanign the server? to main server maybe | 07:41 |
| frostburn3 | iceroot, http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/setting-processor-affinity-certain-task-or-process.html | 07:42 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: to rule out a firewall issue, can you telnet to the machine on port 445, | 07:42 |
| Contessa | iceroot ... are you lacking in memory on your machine ? | 07:42 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: how would i do that? | 07:42 |
| icarus-c | iceroot: i don't see the point.. if there are only one user using the machine, why not give it all resource? when multiple users are using and the machine is busy, it balance each users CPU cycles quite well | 07:42 |
| Hasanibrahim | icarus-c: i think it's not continuing more | 07:42 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: telnet ipaddress port number ie. telnet 192.168.1.1 445 | 07:43 |
| smarties3 | indus: is tehre anyway i can recover my older source list or will that effect my programs which i installed now ? | 07:43 |
| Hasanibrahim | it's yet in the first step: inodes, blocks ... | 07:43 |
| iceroot | icarus-c: the users are using a heavy "make" and i dont want to allow that they use make with an option to use more then 1 core | 07:43 |
| indus | smarties yes there will be a backup of it in that folder /etc/apt | 07:43 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: it says connected to 192.168.1.101 | 07:43 |
| iceroot | frostburn3: thx, sounds interessting | 07:43 |
| VanessaE | oookay then, karmic did *not* like the old jaunty-supplied kernels. | 07:44 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: wait until it finishes pass 5 | 07:44 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: ok, at least we know the connections getting through.... | 07:44 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: you will be back to a shell after that | 07:44 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: but the bad news is i'm out of ideas | 07:44 |
| * VanessaE watches the affected computer's screen go apesh** | 07:44 | |
| Hasanibrahim | icarus-c: is it normal that i am waiting in pass1 for about 105 minutes | 07:44 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: lol thanks for trying very much | 07:44 |
| Hasanibrahim | *15 minutes | 07:44 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: for large file system, yes | 07:45 |
| astechgeek | maco: are you developing? | 07:45 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: next time run with -C 0 switch will show you the progress bar | 07:45 |

| neil_d | what channel are the ubuntu developers on? | 07:45 |
| maco | astechgeek: not right now. im about to go to bed | 07:45 |

| Bryce1 | jong_: i am accessing a windows 7 machine from ubuntu | 07:57 |
| meowpup | hi i am wanting to know how to reset ubuntu to be grub another os on my hdd has become default | 07:57 |
| Docteh | Bryce1: you got samba to work? sweet | 07:57 |
| jacquesdupontd | icarus-c, i know the karmic one is not working at all (shame) but i just purged it and reinstalled it and it's working perfectly | 07:57 |
| Contessa | sheep ...I thought it was suppsoed to be a cow ? | 07:57 |
| Bryce1 | docteh: no not yet | 07:57 |
| smarties3 | indus : any chance u might know how to install themes ? | 07:57 |
| jacquesdupontd | icarus-c, first do you understand what i want ? | 07:57 |
| Docteh | !grub | 07:57 |
| manish | hahaha | 07:57 |
| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 07:57 |
| icarus-c | jacquesdupontd: yea | 07:57 |
| Hasanibrahim | icarus-c: will i change free space preceding from 0 to any ? | 07:57 |
| Hasanibrahim | icarus-c: will i change free space preceding from 0 to any ? | 07:57 |
| icarus-c | huh | 07:57 |
| Contessa | jacquesdupontd, wants the earth ? | 07:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | icarus-c, great i may finally have an answer (im sure playing with arguments would change everything, but i don't know a lot with it) | 07:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | Contessa, got it already | 07:58 |
| icarus-c | meowpup: boot from live media, chroot to ubuntu install and run a grub-install | 07:58 |
| indus | smarties3: isnt that easy, go to gnome-look.org ,download and drap and drop into appearances | 07:58 |
| Contessa | lol | 07:58 |
| jong_ | Bryce1: in truth, i occasionally see problems accessing windows from ubuntu even vice versa..but windows 7, sorry i haven't tried it before | 07:58 |
| icarus-c | meowpup: man grub-install before you go | 07:58 |
| jacquesdupontd | Contessa, but have to buy battery all the time cause it's running with electricity to turn | 07:58 |
| indus | Contessa: its a very nice OS from MS | 07:58 |
| indus | Contessa: 7TH amjor release | 07:59 |
| icarus-c | indus: MS never make nice thing | 07:59 |
| smarties3 | indus : i tried that method doesn't wrk me odd i even tried extracting the files trough winrar | 07:59 |
| jacquesdupontd | seven is ok for one time | 07:59 |
| Contessa | indus ... is it actually any good ... would you wanto to swap from a good linux install ? | 07:59 |
| indus | you havent tried windows 7 then | 07:59 |
| jacquesdupontd | i think it's their best windows | 07:59 |
| meowpup | icarus-c: nope i remember awhile ago someone here gave me a command that actually reset ubuntu gtub from inside | 07:59 |
| indus | Contessa: its very good yes, | 07:59 |
| jacquesdupontd | prooves that ubuntu users can admit when an os is great even if it's an MS one. | 07:59 |
| icarus-c | indus: i don't mind if you list the goodies of win7 here | 08:00 |
| indus | Contessa: unless you have a MS bias, you will love it | 08:00 |
| Richard_Martin | How are you queefers doing? | 08:00 |
| jong_ | Bryce1: btw, im trying to duplicate the situation here...i have a windows 7 virtual machine in my 9.10 | 08:00 |
| indus | icarus-c: please install and see for yourself , | 08:00 |
| jacquesdupontd | And this one is good, but i was like you on the beginning but we have to remember that it's taking me 700 megs of memory just after a clean boot with nothing on startup | 08:00 |
| meowpup | icarus-c: | 08:00 |
| indus | !offtopic | 08:00 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 08:00 |
| Bryce1 | OK so i can access my shared windows folders on my windows 7 machine with a windows vista machine without any user or password information. but when i try to connect to it with my ubuntu machine i cant even access past the workgroup, because i get a error: unable to mount location failed to retrieve share list from server | 08:00 |
| Contessa | indus, I am not biased towards MS | 08:00 |
| icarus-c | according to ubuntu bug #1, Windows is a deal | 08:00 |
| Bryce1 | jong_: thanks for all you help so far! | 08:01 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, then could someone help me with my usb key please ? | 08:01 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: how about ubuntu to vista ? | 08:01 |
| indus | i actually love windows XP as much as ubuntu , so ... | 08:01 |
| jacquesdupontd | is it that nobody knows how to do it or nobody wants to help me cause it's boring ? | 08:01 |
| Contessa | jacquesdupontd, wants to be a latch boy | 08:01 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: what is the problem exactly? | 08:01 |
| Docteh | connecting from 7 to samba server works | 08:01 |
| smarties3 | indus : i tried that method doesn't wrk for me ( drag n drop) odd i even tried extracting the files trough winrar | 08:01 |
| icarus-c | eddym: what is your current kernel | 08:01 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: hold on setting that up now | 08:01 |
| indus | smarties3: do not extract the files | 08:02 |
| Contessa | eddym has a current Colonel ? | 08:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, ok one time again, i have a usb disk bootable jsut made with usb-disk-creator everything is working perfect (xubuntu) but as same as a live cd the boot time is horrible and shouldn't be so slow | 08:02 |
| indus | smarties3: the tar has to be dropped into it, but i have seen that all files dont work like that bad packaging i believe | 08:02 |
| eddym | icarus not sure how do i check | 08:02 |
| Contessa | jacquesdupontd, ..USB's are generall7y slow unless you have one of those superfast usbs | 08:03 |
| icarus-c | eddym: uname -r | 08:03 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, and if you tell me to install it on the key i'll answer you that i want to keep it at a live usb key also to be able to install it on other computers (should be possible no ?) | 08:03 |
| smarties3 | indus : yah wen i try that method it just won't drag its self to apperance | 08:03 |
| icarus-c | eddym: and what is your ubuntu release | 08:03 |
| Hasanibrahim | i can't run e2fsck , terminals says device or resource busy: How is possible | 08:03 |
| jacquesdupontd | Contessa, you know that a processor is usually calculating ? | 08:03 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: well, even though the devices have changed, i dont think the underlying stuff for live cd hs changed , its still a live cd which works from usb :) | 08:03 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: umount them | 08:03 |
| eddym | icarus:2.6.31-14-generic | 08:03 |
| Hasanibrahim | icarus-c: i didn't mount them, it must be unmounted | 08:03 |
| Docteh | jacquesdupontd: the USB is slow due to how its accessed probably | 08:03 |
| Contessa | jacquesdupontd, ..I dont know .... I have a quad opteron, and boot up 1time isnt an issue for me | 08:04 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: good idea for brainstorm this one , make live usb as fast as system unless, due to the probing etc it will naturally take time | 08:04 |
| jacquesdupontd | Contessa, it don't know why you tell me that like i don't know that usb can be slow, i just want the boot not to be as slow as a "try ubuntu" on a live support i really don't care about the support speed | 08:04 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: cat /proc/mount tells all | 08:04 |
| icarus-c | eddym: there you have a >=2.6.29 kernel | 08:04 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: how would i connect to the vista machine? | 08:04 |
| indus | Hasanibrahim: do not DO NOT run it on a mounted partition | 08:04 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, you're the first guy who understood me and didn't said a stupid thing like i'm dumb | 08:04 |
| eddym | icarus: do i need to reboot | 08:04 |
| Docteh | Bryce1: try specifying a user that exists on the vista machine | 08:05 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: same as your doing on windows 7, share a file on the vista machine and try to connect using ubuntu | 08:05 |
| MouseShaving | Bye | 08:05 |
| eddym | icarus - my usb webcam doesnt seem to work | 08:05 |
| indus | ok i go for lunch | 08:05 |
| Hasanibrahim | what am i going to do :/ | 08:05 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: but i cant even mount my workgroup | 08:05 |
| indus | bb 1 hour | 08:05 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i have an idea on how to do it if we can't play with argument to tell it to him not to boot with all install needed stuff | 08:05 |
| icarus-c | jacquesdupontd: between, do you have a floppy drive? enabled floppy in BIOS but no floppy drive physically could make the kernel unhappy | 08:05 |
| jacquesdupontd | loading for nothing | 08:05 |
| Docteh | Bryce1: mounting the workgroup? | 08:05 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: yeah that floppy probe takes time | 08:06 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: press f 6b for boot options and its possible to skip floppy etc | 08:06 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: f6 | 08:06 |
| Hasanibrahim | it's yet saying me device or resource busy | 08:06 |
| Bryce1 | docteh: when i click on the workgroup they are in it say unable to mount location | 08:06 |
| jacquesdupontd | icarus-c, you all don't understand anything, EVERYTHING IS OK, just imagijne your boot time would be as long as a live cd booting time to try ubuntu would you be happy and talking about bios or floppy disk ? | 08:06 |
| indus | Hasanibrahim: sudo umount <devicename>? | 08:06 |
| jacquesdupontd | so why are you all talking about something else basic | 08:06 |
| icarus-c | because the kernel will wait for a long while hoping it can find the floppy drive somewhere... | 08:07 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: no i run into the same problem as windows 7 box on vista box i cant connect | 08:07 |
| * Contessa never noticed a live CD being slow | 08:07 | |
| indus | jacquesdupontd:hold on | 08:07 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i have an idea, we could install a ubuntu version on the usb disk make it bootable and then install a pack that would be able to install ubuntu from it | 08:07 |
| Docteh | Bryce1: ah, I've never used samba like that | 08:07 |
| astechgeek | whats the equivalent of fedora's wl_apsta.o in jaunty? | 08:07 |
| Hasanibrahim | icarus-c: it was not mounted | 08:07 |
| eddym | icarus: seems that my usb camera is not detected | 08:07 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: are you asking about the live usb starting up slow,? or once booted to desktop its slow | 08:07 |
| icarus-c | jacquesdupontd: between, you can install on a USB drive as hard disk | 08:08 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 08:08 |
| icarus-c | eddym: in cheese? | 08:08 |
| Bryce1 | docteh: or when i smb:// <box ip address> it asks for a password and any combination i think of doesnt work | 08:08 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, you understand ? so i know how to do if i want it to be boring but i was sure it was something that many people would have thought about before me and that it was just very simple to do it directly from the usb live key | 08:08 |
| Hasanibrahim | when i write sudo umount dev/sda1 terminal says not mounted | 08:08 |
| eddym | icarus: in skype yesterday it worked but the colors were off | 08:08 |
| indus | Hasanibrahim: just type fsck -v /dev/sda1 then | 08:08 |
| jacquesdupontd | icarus-c, do you see you are in late look at what i said before you answered me | 08:08 |
| KRYPTiK | I have alienware command center, which allows me most importantly to control the lighting on my keyboard. Anyone know how this will work with Ubuntu? | 08:08 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: cool down | 08:08 |
| indus | :) | 08:09 |
| Bryce1 | so to recap. i can completely network folders between my windows 7 and vista box but cant from ubuntu access either | 08:09 |
| icarus-c | jacquesdupontd: have fun | 08:09 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, yeah i need cause im asking that simple thing are simply someone understand like you do since 4 years | 08:09 |
| eddym | icarus: its a ms vx3000 webcamera usb | 08:09 |
| jacquesdupontd | 4 hours | 08:09 |
| Hasanibrahim | icarus-c: dev/sda1: clean | 08:09 |
| Hasanibrahim | but why gparted says me check :( :( | 08:09 |
| Hasanibrahim | i only need a ntfs partition :/ | 08:09 |
| icarus-c | Hasanibrahim: what operation you want to do with gparted? | 08:10 |
| ambafatima | ok my geks, dig this, i have an old dell laptop with 8.10 on it, when i plug or unplug it part of the screen freezes for a moment, like a minute or so, it's about the size of the volume control thingie, so im guessing it's the power thingie that didn't quite cooperates with ubuntu, any suggestions on this? | 08:10 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: ok, have you tried connecting via the gui ? if you goto Places -> Connect to Server and select windows share in the drop down box, you need to enter the share location | 08:10 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, and i'm amazed cause i was nearly thinking nobody understand what i'm talking about but for me it's so simple i thought i would come someone would tell me go to text.cfg on the boot disk and change that line by this one, but no i was dreaming that's why i'm a lil bit nervous but i apologize to all people i've talk a bit hard. | 08:10 |
| Hasanibrahim | icarus-c: i have dev/sda1 with 108 GiB, i need to resize it to 90 Gib and open a new 18 GiB partition with ntfs | 08:10 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: yes and when i reach the workgroup it say unable to mount location | 08:11 |
| Bryce1 | *says | 08:11 |
| twiinz | hi there, is the folder /etc/event.d deprecated? | 08:11 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: text.cfg? | 08:11 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: what if you enter c$ in the share location ? | 08:12 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, that's an example but yeah that's the file that you would call grub.list or grub now on karmic | 08:12 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: can you give an example? | 08:12 |
| goose | Hasanibrahim: use gparted | 08:12 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: like i said, the boot time is deliberately slow so it doesnt miss devices when probing ,since its critical as users will be installing ubuntu later with it | 08:12 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, to change the live cd/usb options on the boot page | 08:12 |
| icarus-c | eddym: you mean even when it works, there are no colour. and it doesn't work with skype now? | 08:12 |
| === w00t_ is now known as Guest95618 | ||
| stiggy | Bryce1: using the gui, just type in c$ in the share text field | 08:12 |
| toddler | is this the right channel to ask if I have network problems with netbook remix? | 08:13 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: try unetbootin also | 08:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i know that that's why i'm here to see if there's a way for him not to check when i use this line | 08:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, it has nothing to do with the usb disk creator | 08:13 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: there are plenty of boot options | 08:13 |
| goose | !ask | toddler | 08:13 |
| ubottu | toddler: 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. :-) | 08:13 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: in the location field? | 08:13 |
| dravekx|linux | File does not exist: /usr/share/phpmyadmin/js/mootools.js | 08:13 |
| Hasanibrahim | goose: i am already using gparted | 08:13 |
| dravekx|linux | whats up with that? | 08:13 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: but maybe this is more a dev question | 08:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i know i was just searching for it here but i'll check myself thx for having tried to help me i'll come back to tell you how i did | 08:14 |
| goose | Hasanibrahim: excuse me, I just joined :S What's the problem you're having then? | 08:14 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: wokie :) | 08:14 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: i mean ok | 08:14 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, it's surely playing as the file are kinda compressed | 08:14 |
| === Guest95618 is now known as woot | ||
| jacquesdupontd | indus, there must be a process of extracting* | 08:14 |
| Hasanibrahim | goose: when i try to my sda1 from 108 GiB to 90 GiB, it says check fsdk. | 08:14 |
| Hasanibrahim | when i check fsdk, terminal says clean | 08:14 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, but i'm gonna build a special thing that will be very cool you'll see i will not have wated my day | 08:15 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: in the go to / location field? | 08:15 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: places -> connect to server and select windows share, there should be 5 fields, server, share, folder, username and domain name. Just enter the server name in server and type c$ in share | 08:15 |
| Hasanibrahim | and i now don't know what to do | 08:15 |
| toddler | I installed Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix on my asus eee 900 yesterday, and it works fine except the connection speed on my home network seems to be mortally slow. Any idea why? | 08:15 |
| goose | Hasanibrahim: have you tried running fdisk while /dev/sda1/ is unmounted? | 08:15 |
| jacquesdupontd | jacquesdupontd, always good when i don't have answers to my question on big channels, means i'm gonna invent a brilliant thing :) | 08:15 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, means also i have to close my cellphone for today | 08:16 |
| Hasanibrahim | goose: i opened with live USB now and trying to use gparted as fdisk operation | 08:16 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: im not seeing that. I'm using file browser | 08:16 |
| Hasanibrahim | i don't know where i did wrong :( | 08:16 |
| jong_ | Bryce1: my friend of mine told me that there is an unresolved problem accessing windows vista/7 from ubuntu because of the new netbios authentication protocol implemented by vista/7 | 08:16 |
| Hasanibrahim | it says again check file system on /dev/sda1 for errors and if possible fix them as e2fsck -fyv /dev/sda1 | 08:17 |
| goose | Hasanibrahim: sudo umount /dev/sda1/ && sudo fsck /dev/sda1/ | 08:17 |
| icarus-c | jong_: works for me with vista | 08:17 |
| Bryce1 | icarus-c: in karmic koala? | 08:17 |
| Hasanibrahim | goose: i did but i gonna do it again wait please | 08:17 |
| jscinoz | hi... I think i might have a slight issue here... | 08:17 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, listen about the idea, imagine a usb key that is make live usb key for installing ubuntu (700 megs needed) that would have at the same time another line "Boot on my personnal standalone Ubuntu" | 08:17 |
| goose | jscinoz: ask :D | 08:17 |
| jscinoz | my /var/lib/dpkg got wiped out due to ext4 errors... | 08:17 |
| mattwj2002 | hi guys | 08:17 |
| jong_ | icarus-c: i haven't verified it yet, my friend did, but it | 08:17 |
| jscinoz | goose: i need to reconstruct my dpkg database | 08:18 |
| mattwj2002 | I have weird problem | 08:18 |
| jong_ | icarus-c: quite possible | 08:18 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: im using file browser, are you using some other type of file browser? i dont see what you discribed | 08:18 |
| jscinoz | any ideas how to do this? I'm thinking of maybe using the dir listing of /usr/share/doc and reinstalling each of the packages listed there | 08:18 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, that gonna be very veyr very easy i just need an answer to 1 thing | 08:18 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: it should be in the top menu bar, Applications, Places, System | 08:18 |
| mattwj2002 | I used an mp3 player as a flash drive to install ubuntu.....now my mp3 is messed up.....anyone know how to fix it? | 08:18 |
| icarus-c | Bryce1: nope, Arch Linux. GNOME 2.28, samba 3.3.8 | 08:18 |
| Hasanibrahim | umonut: /dev/sda1/: Not a directory says goose | 08:18 |
| Bryce1 | icarus-c: oh im on karmic | 08:19 |
| adac | In gnome, where can i disable the screenservice? | 08:19 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, i have a hard disk on this laptop with ubuntu and i would like to install this xubuntu on that key but without touching grub at all without even thinking about an mbr to install | 08:19 |
| Bryce1 | stiggy: i dont seem to have that | 08:19 |
| goose | Hasanibrahim: df -h, do you see your HDD? | 08:19 |
| icarus-c | jong_: actually, i did heard that even Windows xp/vista got some random issue with Win7 share | 08:19 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, am i obliged to do it with the alternate cd ? | 08:19 |
| toddler | mattwj2002: you need to reformat it to its original format. if you don't have any type of recovery cd for it (unlikely) I recommend asking the store where you bought it | 08:19 |
| Hasanibrahim | no goose | 08:19 |
| jong_ | icarus-c: that's true.. | 08:20 |
| jacquesdupontd | indus, cause more ubuntu is evoluation less we have option during the install wich can be cool and bad | 08:20 |
| icarus-c | goose: mount or cat /proc/mount would be a better way than df | 08:20 |
| stiggy | Bryce1: its the same menu bar right at the top of the screen which has the notification area | 08:20 |
| goose | Hasanibrahim: unplug your USB HDD, plug it back in, once it mounts, 'df -h' and find your /dev/sdblah/ of your HDD | 08:20 |
| Hasanibrahim | my HDD is not in list with df -h goose | 08:20 |

| nathanial | rickogden, right, is it possible to create a usb installer with ubuntu? | 09:03 |
| sebsebseb | nathanial: You can install Windows inside Ubuntu in a virtual machine, but you will need a CD/DVD/ISO for it. | 09:03 |
| rickogden | nathanial: yes you can, but you need the CD to get the image from to make a bootable USB drive | 09:04 |
| nathanial | sebsebseb, well my problem is that no matter what i have tried, my wifi wont see networks. | 09:04 |
| nathanial | rickogden, is there a tutorial or website which can guide me/ | 09:04 |
| nathanial | *? | 09:04 |
| sebsebseb | nathanial: In Ubuntu you mean? Yes wireless can be tricky to set up, you can try native first :) and then Ndiswrapper which will allow you to use Windows driver. Fortunatly I don't have to mess around setting up wireless :) This also means I don't know that much about setting it up. | 09:05 |
| Kerio | hmm, everything work so well right now, aint gonna upgrade just yet... :) | 09:05 |
| rickogden | nathanial: erm, if you use one of the many CD burning software to create an ISO of the CD, and then use USB Startup Disk Creator to create a bootable pen drive with that image | 09:05 |
| sebsebseb | Kerio: With 9.04? | 09:06 |
| nathanial | sebsebseb, yeah. I have tried ndis and every other thing mentioned on forums but it just wont work. | 09:06 |
| Kerio | yes 9.04 | 09:06 |
| sebsebseb | nathanial: You already said what didn't work, but I like this factoid so | 09:06 |
| sebsebseb | !work | nathanial | 09:06 |
| ubottu | nathanial: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 09:06 |
| sebsebseb | Kerio: well not that much difference between 9.04 and 9.10 for noticable end users features that you see. Not in the background technical features. | 09:07 |
| VanessaE | ...except your sound may end up not working right | 09:07 |
| nathanial | rickogden, thats interesting, does that mean ubuntu startup disk creator can be used for anything? even windows xp? | 09:07 |
| colt | 09:07 | |
| sebsebseb | Kerio: The notes tell you more about 9.10, but yes you can keep 9.04 for now. | 09:08 |
| sebsebseb | !notes | Kerio | 09:08 |
| ubottu | Kerio: Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) release notes can be found here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910 | 09:08 |
| rickogden | nathanial: yes, any CD image | 09:08 |

| godwin | helo | 09:09 |
| tapas | ok, how to start my xsession from the new gdm? | 09:09 |
| tapas | it only offers gnome, failsafe terminal and xmonad.. | 09:10 |
| levuong | hi | 09:10 |
| sebsebseb | Kerio: well there aren't many new things to try in 9.10 | 09:10 |
| tapas | but not my custom .xsession which starts a gnome session with xmonad as WM | 09:10 |
| tapas | which sucks.. | 09:10 |
| tapas | basically the _one_ traditionally correct way to configure one's xsession is not supported by the new ubuntu :( | 09:11 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: and 9.04 it was fine for you? | 09:11 |
| To3000 | the new ubuntu is an epic fail! | 09:11 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: yep, there all login managers offered to run the user's xinitrc | 09:11 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: login manager you mean GDM? | 09:12 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: yes, or kdm | 09:12 |
| tapas | which i checked out, too | 09:12 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: Did you do KDM in 9.10? | 09:12 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: i installed xdm just to be able to start my session from the login manager.. | 09:12 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: yes... | 09:12 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: oh there's xdm as well | 09:12 |
| tapas | i also installed kdm to see whether it was different.. | 09:12 |
| tapas | no dice | 09:12 |
| tapas | i think ubuntu has a way of managing the abvailable session which is independent of the login manager | 09:13 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: that mechanism just doesn't include an option for runing xinitrc or xsession anymore | 09:13 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: To3000 Newer is not always better! Plus with Ubuntu it's not really about what is the latest or Long Term Support, it's about which releases are still supported by them. | 09:13 |
| Cantcme | anyone else apart from me getting a problem with compiz + loading a flash video (eg from youtube) ? | 09:14 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: Well I don't like the new GDM 2 since it can't be themed like the old one | 09:14 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: Does xdm look good or? | 09:14 |
| nathanial | ideally id like to get my wifi working in ubuntu as i prefer the ubuntu feel better | 09:14 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: xdm looks like shit | 09:14 |
| To3000 | i like the new blue tooth but the whole system just craches | 09:14 |
| tapas | i'll verify that it works with 9.04.. one moment.. | 09:14 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: yeah I had a feeling whatever that one is, that it woudn't look that good | 09:14 |
| sebsebseb | !info xdm | 09:14 |
| ubottu | xdm (source: xdm): X display manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.1.8-6ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 185 kB, installed size 796 kB | 09:14 |
| tapas | it does with 8.04 which we have at uni | 09:14 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: it's the old x11 login manager | 09:14 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: X yeah I was thinking Xubuntu or X | 09:14 |
| tapas | used back in the kernel 1.x days already | 09:14 |
| tapas | ;) | 09:15 |
| sebsebseb | oh | 09:15 |
| phate | is it normal that i only have 2 h max. when i´m working in battery mode with the lenovo sl500 and U.9.10? | 09:15 |
| VanessaE | someone call the press | 09:16 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: ah hell, it doesn't really matter if 9.04 had this defect already, too | 09:16 |
| tapas | it's there ;) | 09:16 |
| VanessaE | I think this kernel build is finally *done* | 09:16 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: Which defect? | 09:16 |
| toddler | phate: what did you have with the original OS? | 09:16 |
| tapas | so i'll look into hacking an extra session into the ubuntu session system | 09:16 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: not offering to run the .xinitrc | 09:16 |
| tapas | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/398300 | 09:16 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: there are some other log in screen's out there, that can be installed from outside the repo | 09:16 |
| tapas | somebody already fileda bug report | 09:16 |
| phate | toddler: under xp i had about 3-3.5h | 09:17 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: by the way I am not actsaulley sure what xinitrc or xsession is | 09:17 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: well, when you login from the console | 09:18 |
| tapas | and type startx | 09:18 |
| tapas | or startx -- :1 | 09:18 |
| tapas | if you already have an X running | 09:18 |
| tapas | then the file ~/.xinitrc is a script that's run when the x server is up | 09:18 |
| tapas | this way a user sets up his environment | 09:18 |
| tapas | e.g. window manager, other apps to be started at login | 09:19 |
| tapas | xdm doesn't execute .xinitrc, but .xsession | 09:19 |
| tapas | which is just a softlink in my case.. | 09:19 |
| sebsebseb | softlink??? meaning | 09:19 |
| toddler | phate: I don't know anything about power saving, but it does seem like you've lost a bit much to me | 09:19 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: ever heard of the program ln? | 09:19 |
| sebsebseb | nope | 09:19 |
| tapas | and links in unix file systems | 09:19 |
| tapas | ? | 09:19 |
| tapas | oh well :) | 09:19 |
| tapas | read up then ;D | 09:19 |
| FloodBot2 | tapas: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:19 |
| tapas | those are essential | 09:20 |
| toddler | tapas: you mean symbolic link? | 09:20 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: links probably have heard of this actsauly | 09:20 |
| tapas | toddler: yeah.. | 09:20 |
| sebsebseb | symbolic link, that's the one | 09:20 |
| tapas | sometimes called "soft link" | 09:20 |
| tapas | because of the other option "hard link" | 09:20 |
| phate | toddler: i think the battery is defect. I have an old about 5 yrs laptop and i used that laptop very often. there i have over 3h | 09:20 |
| cybersplice | toddler: ln doesn't nececarily create a symlink | 09:20 |
| annelies | hello eveyone. I have a ralink usb wifi adaptor on my pc, but since I upgraded from 8.04 to 9.10 (with all intermediate versions in between), the kernel module doesn't load automatically anymore on startup | 09:20 |
| annelies | I have to issue modprobe ra2500usb to get the network running | 09:21 |
| toddler | cybersplice: I know, but tapas was talking about a "soft link" | 09:21 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: anyways, i'll look into providing a .desktop file in /usr/share/Xsessions | 09:21 |
| annelies | any idea how I can solve this? | 09:21 |
| toddler | :) | 09:21 |
| VanessaE | annelas: sudo nano /etc/modules | 09:21 |
| VanessaE | add ra2500usb to that file | 09:21 |
| VanessaE | savbe, reboot. | 09:21 |
| VanessaE | er, save | 09:21 |
| annelies | VanessaE, thanks | 09:22 |
| annelies | will try that | 09:22 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: well thanks for trying to explain stuff, even though I didn't seem to quite get it. ,but something to do with having two x servers running at the same time or something | 09:22 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: no.. | 09:22 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: basically, when you log into an X11 system | 09:22 |
| VanessaE | (for some reason, the newer modules.d and modules.autoload.d stuff isn't there anymore) | 09:22 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: something has to determine what programs to run.. [window manager, desktop, etc..] | 09:22 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: yep x does that | 09:22 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: traditionally that was a shell script in your home directory.. | 09:22 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: now it's been moved to /usr/share/Xsessions/ | 09:23 |
| * annelies is rebooting now | 09:23 | |
| tapas | sebsebseb: or that's at least where GDM is looking.. | 09:23 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: ah ha, yes I will have seen it in the home folder | 09:23 |
| sebsebseb | I think I remember seeing the file there now, as a hidden file | 09:23 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: anyways, i think i'll find a workaround.. | 09:23 |
| tapas | thanks, channel | 09:23 |
| tapas | and FU FloodBot2 | 09:23 |

| tapas | qed | 09:24 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: well I will have seen it, since I have been through the hidden files in home. | 09:24 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: before you go, why do you want to edit that file? | 09:24 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: well, i have already edited it ;) | 09:25 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: i run gnome with xmonad as my window manager | 09:25 |
| tapas | or at least i try to ;) | 09:25 |
| tapas | http://xmonad.org/ | 09:25 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: ah ha so you need to make sure the file knows, it's meant to run Gnome, but also xmonad ? | 09:25 |
| Vinceman | why can you make ü's anymore with shift-windows-"-u anymore in 9.10? how can I reset it back? | 09:25 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: yes and to achieve that, one does a simple two step program to run the gnome session | 09:25 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: 1] export WINDOW_MANAGER=xmonad | 09:26 |
| tapas | 2] exec gnome-session | 09:26 |
| sebsebseb | tapas: you mean you put that in the file that was mentioned? | 09:26 |
| tapas | sebsebseb: yes, ~/.xsession which is a soft link to ~/.xinitrc in my case | 09:26 |
| tapas | ok, gulped my coffee down | 09:27 |

| zvacet | opossum_oisif: np | 09:52 |
| Oyoz | but sudo gives limited priverledges | 09:52 |

| ismail | how to install Kile 2.0 version | 09:53 |
| darpax | Oyoz: if you are sudo'ing from the user you set up the installation with then you will have 100% | 09:53 |
| darpax | Oyoz: personally, I use sudo -i as this simulates an initial login by root so .profile and other pieces are all read in | 09:54 |
| sahith | can any one direct me to a iphone room | 09:54 |

| To3000 | when i boot 9.10, after a few min the mouse continues to move but none of the windows respond, the caps key DOSE NOT flash | 10:00 |
| MaT-dg1 | howto let firefox open irc links with xchat? Pointing to usr/bin/xchat starts xchat but doesn't join the channel. | 10:00 |
| erUSUL | obiwan_: should be | 10:00 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: dump the mbr of the disk and the final 512 bytes | 10:00 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: and then compare them bit per bit | 10:01 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: the problem is | 10:01 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: that the gpt copy is copied from end to start, i mean , the starting of the gpt is at the end | 10:01 |
| Mass_Driver | ok -.- damnit. Why does karmic tell my i have two cpus?? thers just one... | 10:02 |
| === greyz` is now known as rms | ||
| erUSUL | obiwan_: does gpt use the first 512 bytes like the old format did ? | 10:02 |
| zvacet | VanessaE: having problems with karmic? | 10:02 |
| === rms is now known as greyz` | ||
| erUSUL | Mass_Driver: maybe it has HT ? | 10:02 |
| VanessaE | yup | 10:02 |
| obiwan_ | so i can't compare, because the first bit in mbr is the last in the end of the disk, not the first, i'd need something to change the order of the bits in a file, but don't know how, i tried to make a C program reading in binary mode, but didn't success | 10:02 |
| Mass_Driver | @erSUL hyperthreading?? | 10:02 |
| VanessaE | sound issues | 10:02 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: yeah, it does | 10:03 |
| zvacet | say it ,maybe somebody can help you | 10:03 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: Did you try an earlier version? | 10:03 |
| MaT-dg1 | VanessaE: is it about the cracks you hear through the speakers? | 10:03 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: Where there will probably also be sound issues, since Ubuntu has had them since like 8.04. | 10:03 |
| VanessaE | stutters under even brief CPU spikes, sometimes sound freezes entirely while the CPU hog in question is running | 10:03 |
| VanessaE | The machine in question worked fine under Jaunty. | 10:03 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: Did you do a clean install of Karmic or an upgrade? | 10:04 |
| VanessaE | yes, it was clean install. | 10:04 |
| obiwan_ | sry erUSUL i was wrong, it's 16.384 bytes , but anyway | 10:04 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: oh right | 10:04 |
| VanessaE | er, --a clean install. | 10:04 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: Well you could put 9.04 back on, it's still ok to run 9.04 | 10:04 |
| erUSUL | Mass_Driver: yes | 10:04 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: it's 34 sectors of 512 bytes, thus 16.384 | 10:04 |
| darpax | Mass_Driver: Hyperthreading is a technology where one processor had two threads (not full threads) but this was seen by the Operating system as two processors | 10:04 |
| Mass_Driver | so, HT lets the system think I have 2 cpus? Isn't that counter productive, since its just one... | 10:05 |
| MaT-dg1 | #firefox | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 10:05 |
| Kasbe | can I ask a quick question?: If I make a partition and install Debian in it, will the new Grub still let me boot into Ubuntu and Vista? | 10:05 |
| b3cc0 | ciao a tutti | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Kasbe: sure as longas you configure grub right | 10:05 |
| Mass_Driver | And since that thing scales... I don't think it's best to run the HT as 1 GHz and the CPU as 1.67 GHz... | 10:05 |
| erUSUL | Mass_Driver: the cpu has support for doing less say 1.5 of the work. | 10:05 |
| b3cc0 | a chi posso rivolgere un paio di domande su ubutntu9.10? | 10:06 |
| darpax | Mass_Driver: not at all the system for certain tasks will run faster | 10:06 |
| Mass_Driver | ahhhhhwwww... i dont really get it.. | 10:06 |
| erUSUL | Mass_Driver: is an Atom ? | 10:06 |
| Mass_Driver | is an atom. | 10:06 |
| zvacet | !it | b3cc0 | 10:06 |
| ubottu | b3cc0: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) | 10:06 |
| erUSUL | Mass_Driver: the cpu has extra registers and intructions so althought not a full smp system you can gain speed if you make the os believe it has 2 cpu | 10:06 |
| VanessaE | MaT-dg1, no, it's occasional "pops" in the sound, while playing music. | 10:07 |
| erUSUL | Mass_Driver: there is a lot of info in the web about HT and SMT. Go read it ;) | 10:07 |
| Kasbe | ActionParsnip: Do I have to tweak anything? Mind me explaining me the process or give me some directions on what/where to search? | 10:07 |
| Mass_Driver | yeah, that point i understand, but i dont get it, why the op tries to scale the ht too. | 10:07 |
| VanessaE | My best guess after much googling is that it's a kernel bug in the CPU frequency scaler routines. | 10:07 |
| Mass_Driver | I mean, I can't run the CPU at 1ghz and the HT as 1.67 | 10:07 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: To find out about common 9.10 issues check out the release notes | 10:07 |
| SetiAmon | hey i don't really know were this would be a appropiate place to ask this question but how closely is ubuntu to debian? | 10:07 |
| VanessaE | So now I'm backing the kernel down to 2.6.28-5, something I know for sure worked under Jaunty | 10:07 |
| sebsebseb | !notes | VanessaE | 10:07 |
| ubottu | VanessaE: Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) release notes can be found here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910 | 10:08 |
| VanessaE | Don't quote that stuff to me, please | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Kasbe: grub2 is a very complex thing but with time i'm sure you'll learn it. I single boot so have no intention of learning its ins and outs | 10:08 |
| VanessaE | I've been all over the forums and the web in general | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | !grub2 | Kasbe | 10:08 |
| ubottu | Kasbe: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 10:08 |
| mr_danne123 | Hello! Can anyone help me? I cant get internet connection to start and working under ubunt 9.10 . I am useing a wifi connection in school trying to connect to school network. Strange thing that everything works under Windows Vista | 10:08 |
| erUSUL | Mass_Driver: ? there is only one cpu so you can only scale one cpu. even some cpus with 2 cores can only scale both or none | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Kasbe: the final grub.cfg is generated from scripts and settings files | 10:08 |
| zvacet | Kasbe: if debian is last os you want to install see on debian site how to do it | 10:08 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: Ok well was just trying to help a little bit. | 10:08 |
| VanessaE | I appreciate it, honestly | 10:08 |
| Kasbe | ActionParsnip: Thanks :) | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Kasbe: so once you learn how to add entrys they will get updated each time update-grub is executed as root | 10:09 |
| Kasbe | zvacet: thanks | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Kasbe: for me its really OTT due to single booting | 10:09 |
| VanessaE | My fault: I should have mentioned, I'm a seasoned Linux user with some 10 years' experience. | 10:09 |
| mr_danne123 | Can anyone help me =D | 10:09 |
| VanessaE | yet this is just outside of my limited skills. | 10:09 |
| MaT-dg1 | VanessaE: but only when you play music? No 'pop' when an application starts to make a sound? | 10:09 |
| Mass_Driver | erUSUL: the problem is, the op tries to scale both, what happens if it does that? I mean, you cant scale the HT up and then expect it to run faster, am i right? | 10:09 |
| zvacet | Kasbe: just think it is right thing to do np | 10:09 |
| Mass_Driver | if you dont scale the cpu up | 10:09 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: Well in that case I assume you already know that newer is not always better, and things that worked in a previous release, may not just work in a later one. | 10:09 |
| erUSUL | Mass_Driver: you are not making any sense. care to rephrase ? there is not 2 things to scale there is a single cpu | 10:10 |
| Oyoz | what is virture box for?? | 10:10 |
| VanessaE | MaT-dg1, that is correct - it's like someone's sitting there tapping the "skip forward" button on the music every once in a while | 10:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Oyoz: i think you mean Virtual Box | 10:10 |
| erUSUL | !virtualizers | Oyoz | 10:10 |
| ubottu | Oyoz: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 10:10 |
| zvacet | !vbox | Oyoz | 10:10 |
| ubottu | Oyoz: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 10:10 |
| nathan_ | would the command "sudo apt-get install wine" be ok to install wine? | 10:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Oyoz: its a virtualisation software much like VM Ware | 10:10 |
| Mass_Driver | gimme a second. ill switch to xchat and well have a private conversation, i dont want to spanm the channel. | 10:10 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: Anyway that seems to explain why you woudn't just take my put 9.04 back on suggestion, because you want to configure the sound in 9.10 and get it working, or so it seems. Well really you wanted it to just work, but now you want to get it working or so it seems. | 10:10 |
| SetiAmon | aside from my sound being broken(staticy and distorted) in karmic i haven't had any other problems | 10:10 |
| zvacet | nathan_ : yes | 10:11 |
| nathan_ | zvacet, thanks. | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Oyoz: you can run a guest OS inside your Ubuntu system (which acts as the host), you can run Windows or Linux or BSD or any OS you care to name | 10:11 |
| zvacet | nathan_:np | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Oyoz: provided virtualbox likes it. | 10:12 |
| VanessaE | sebsebseb, er, what I'm saying is that jaunty is already too old, outdated. Hence I switched to Karmic, and am having problems. | 10:12 |
| VanessaE | A new release should not make it out the door until stuff like this is ironed out first. | 10:12 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: well Fedora is more cutting edge than Ubuntu for example | 10:12 |
| SetiAmon | Sebsebseb:same issue,sound sucks,don't want to reinstall jaunty,want to get it working | 10:12 |
| === nathan_ is now known as TonyTheTiger | ||
| VanessaE | remember the Ubuntu mantra, seb. | 10:13 |
| robilive | hi | 10:13 |
| VanessaE | "It should just work" | 10:13 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: They don't have enough developers to fix loads and loads of the issues, plus some of them are going to be rather complex to fix. | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | VanessaE: emphasis on should | 10:13 |
| zvacet | VanessaE: I had good sound in intrepid,bad in jaunty and it is O.K. in karmic what do you say | 10:13 |
| cankoy | wireless is broken after upgrade to Karmic, kernel log says "wlan0: disassociating by local choice (reason=3)". Any idea how to fix? | 10:13 |
| mr_danne123 | Hello! Can anyone help me? I cant get internet connection to start and working under ubunt 9.10 . I am useing a wifi connection in school trying to connect to school network. Strange thing that everything works under Windows Vista | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | VanessaE: lots of stuff should work, even in different OSs but doesnt | 10:13 |
| sebsebseb | cankoy: Ok many people have had issues with 9.10 after upgrading from 9.04. | 10:14 |
| SetiAmon | Considering i had perfect sound with jaunty,i do expect sound to work in karmic | 10:14 |
| TonyTheTiger | reading you guys chat makes me scared to try other linux distro's | 10:14 |
| VanessaE | zva: ok in Jaunty, useless in Karmic | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | VanessaE: jaunty still has 12 months support left in it | 10:14 |
| sebsebseb | TonyTheTiger: sometimes other distros are much better than Ubuntu when it comes to things such as sound and wireless | 10:14 |
| Oyoz | is it good?? | 10:15 |
| erUSUL | TonyTheTiger: it is a support chatroom. only people with problems come here. it shos a *very* biased view | 10:15 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: it's to old for her likeing now though | 10:15 |
| VanessaE | ActionParsnip, not according to most anyone you talk to about software bugs. "Please try the latest X" for any software package X. That usually means I need the latest distro version also. | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Oyoz: thats an opinion so is not concrete, why not try it (its free to try) and see for yourself | 10:15 |
| Oyoz | have u installed it before and you like it? | 10:15 |
| mr_danne123 | Hello! Can anyone help me? I cant get internet connection to start and working under ubunt 9.10 . I am useing a wifi connection in school trying to connect to school network. Strange thing that everything works under Windows Vista | 10:15 |
| skysong | TonyTheTiger: you shouldn't be scared.. but why would you need another distro if ubuntu suits you? | 10:15 |
| darpax | TonyTheTiger: I've joined to see whats going on, however I installed Karmic and haven't had any problems | 10:15 |
| TonyTheTiger | sebsebseb, yeah i guess so, i have seen some nice looking distro's but ubuntu feels right the most atm. | 10:15 |
| === obiwan__ is now known as obiwan_ | ||
| ActionParsnip | VanessaE: not necessarily, the updates will still flow for jaunty until next year so you will have the latest packages | 10:16 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: security updates only from the Ubuntu repos | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Oyoz: its ok for testing distros, doesnt mean you will like it though | 10:16 |
| robilive | Anyone know if exist official (or not official) statistics of the 9.10's download in the first week? | 10:16 |
| zvacet | VanessaE: I know what are you saying but I just want to say I have different experience with sound in ubuntu | 10:16 |
| TonyTheTiger | although when i become more knowledged and understand linux better i will try other distro's | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Oyoz: give it a go, form your own opinion | 10:16 |
| mr_danne123 | Hello! Can anyone help me? I cant get internet connection to start and working under ubunt 9.10 . I am useing a wifi connection in school trying to connect to school network. Strange thing that everything works under Windows Vista | 10:17 |
| Oyoz | ok | 10:17 |
| zvacet | Oyoz: try it maybe you will like it you never know | 10:17 |
| mr_danne123 | I think ubuntu disabled something it is quit easy | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | mr_danne123: it works under vista due to the hardware being super supported in that OS. The fact that it works in vista is moot | 10:17 |
| Oyoz | thanx | 10:17 |
| skysong | TonyTheTiger: you don't need another distro, so long as you can get everything done with ubuntu | 10:17 |
| darpax | mr_danne123: instead of spamming the channel - provide details of what you have tried so far and what errrors you are getting | 10:17 |
| SetiAmon | mr_Danne123:I am on wifi,in karmic.did you try LEFT clicking on the wifi icon on the top right and seeing if it see's a network | 10:18 |
| whammo | hi does anybody have a rough guess what is wrong with jockey and how to make it work again? | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | mr_danne123: if you run: sudo iwlist scan do you see access points? | 10:18 |
| mr_danne123 | I am a n00b | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | whammo: try reinstalling it I guess | 10:18 |
| Paullo_ | GeForce Fx 5600 XT 128mb doesn´t have support on ubuntu? | 10:18 |
| whammo | ha good answer why not | 10:18 |
| pmo | mr_danne123: a lot of ppl have problems with wifi , most proably is de to propertiary drivers just type in google ur wifi card name + ubuntu 9.10 and u will find solution quick | 10:18 |
| mr_danne123 | sudo iwlist scan gives: interface doesnt support scanning | 10:18 |
| skysong | Paullo_: you tried installing the drivers? | 10:18 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: unfortunatly OS's don't always just work properly for everything they are meant to do, because of lack of hardware manufacture support for example when it comes to Desktop Linux. | 10:19 |
| cankoy | mr_danne123: dmesg|grep wlan0 | 10:19 |
| Oyoz | i installed it ones,but it disturbed the start up process | 10:19 |
| Paullo_ | skysong yes many time after i install and rebot the screen comes back and i cant see nothing | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: sur eit does. sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-173 nvidia-173-modaliases | 10:19 |
| === chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
| mr_danne123 | dmesg | grep wlan0 : gives nothing | 10:19 |
| VanessaE | sebsebseb, fair enough, but this worked in Jaunty. which means there is a feature regression somewhere that should have been ironed out before release. | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Oyoz: well the VBox kernel module needs loading | 10:19 |
| skysong | Paullo_: check nvidia.com for the drivers, exit x and tried installing it manually.. i guess you used synaptic? | 10:19 |
| Tesssa | VanessaE i had problems in installing 9.10 had to upgrade from 9.04 eventually now everything works in 9.10 but i dont know why they or i bothered it boots up slower than 9.04 and is no better than9.04 they should have waited and released 10.04 next year | 10:19 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip have more one drive of 173? | 10:19 |
| Paullo_ | skysong i try too | 10:20 |
| TonyTheTiger | anyone know a good C ide and compiler? | 10:20 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: as long as your using supported hardware by Ubuntu, you shoudn't get issues with it when it comes to Ubuntu and the hardware, there's even a bot factoid for this, want it? | 10:20 |
| Paullo_ | but hap the same thing | 10:20 |
| Tesssa | but i am using 9.10 now | 10:20 |
| * VanessaE grumbles | 10:20 | |
| BleSS | is possible to boot a GPT disk on a BIOS computer? | 10:20 |
| cankoy | mr_danne123: do you see a wlan interface with 'ifconfig -a' | 10:20 |
| skysong | but 9.10 provides for 180 or 185 drivers:s | 10:20 |
| VanessaE | I repeat: It worked in Jaunty. | 10:20 |
| Beryllium | Was there some regression with nvidia drivers between 9.04 and 9.10? | 10:20 |
| kuttans | Hello | 10:20 |
| iceroot | TonyTheTiger: compiler = gcc, ide = kdevelop, vi, gedit | 10:20 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: the nvidia 5200 is legacy driver i think | 10:20 |
| Tesssa | and have had several updates for 9.10 | 10:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: how do you mean, the 173 driver supports your card | 10:20 |
| mr_danne123 | ifconfig -a gives : eth0, irda0, lo | 10:20 |
| kuttans | i have a problem with mousepen tablet in karmic anyone there who know about this | 10:21 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/nvidia-glx-173 search for 5600XT | 10:21 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip and why after i install 173 the screens comes black? | 10:21 |
| darpax | mr_danne123: when you go to network manager, do you see any wireless networks listed? | 10:21 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: yes searching now | 10:21 |
| SetiAmon | karmic was supposed to have xfi working out of the box,it does but there is static and distortions with me,and i can't install the creative drivers like in jaunty so i'm out of ideas | 10:21 |
| TonyTheTiger | iceroot, so i gotta do it separately no package that does both? | 10:21 |
| mr_danne123 | no | 10:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: are you using karmic? | 10:21 |
| sebsebseb | Tesssa: VanessaE well new versions in April and October (except for when the first LTS was delayed to June in 2006) the non LTS versions are for experimenting with new features and such, the Long Term Support versions are the ones they need to make rather stable. | 10:21 |
| iceroot | TonyTheTiger: maybe there are metapackages | 10:21 |
| cankoy | mr_danne123: it seems ubuntu did not recognize your wireless card | 10:21 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip 9.10 | 10:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: did you install the modaliasses | 10:21 |
| darpax | mr_danne123: sounds like your card may not be supported with the default installation and require further tweaking | 10:21 |
| mr_danne123 | hmm | 10:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: ok thats karmic | 10:21 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: yeah supported | 10:22 |
| kuttans | what is the irc channel for karmic can anyone point out pls | 10:22 |
| iceroot | TonyTheTiger: but gcc is a must have, so just choose a ide you like | 10:22 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: jeeves knows much :D | 10:22 |
| DJones | kuttans: Its this channel now its been released | 10:22 |
| sebsebseb | kuttans: this is it | 10:22 |
| ActionParsnip | kuttans: right here | 10:22 |
| darpax | mr_danne123: as was suggested, have you checked for ubuntu/linux support for your card? | 10:22 |
| mr_danne123 | how can I see the name of the wireless card? | 10:22 |
| iceroot | TonyTheTiger: have a look at google if there is code::blocks fpr linux | 10:22 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip man had more 1 week i tryl to install the video and i cant | 10:22 |
| indus | Paullo_: try to install the nvidia 9xxx drivers | 10:22 |
| kuttans | thank you | 10:22 |
| TonyTheTiger | right, so iceroot would i just do sudo apt-get install gcc? | 10:22 |
| Paullo_ | indus but they work with my card? | 10:22 |
| kuttans | anyone know about the hal deprecation and how karmic work around that | 10:22 |
| rags | can someone show me how to find the total capacity of a partition reading from a fdisk output? | 10:22 |
| indus | Paullo_: si | 10:22 |
| Paullo_ | indus where i find? | 10:23 |
| kuttans | because the mouse pen driver is hal based and hald is not runing in karmic in my system | 10:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia*; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove then reboot | 10:23 |
| iceroot | TonyTheTiger: for normal c-programs, its ok yes | 10:23 |
| indus | Paullo_: all in synaptic | 10:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: then once back in the gui run: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-173 nvidia-173-modaliases | 10:23 |
| mr_danne123 | Just the last question, how can I see the name of the wireless card? | 10:23 |
| cankoy | mr_danne123: is it internal, or connected to usb? | 10:23 |
| cishpix | anyone can help me about samba? I've upgrade my samba from previous version to 3.4.2. after that, my windows XP cannot login to the domain. I don't change anything in smb.conf. what should I do? | 10:23 |
| mr_danne123 | internal | 10:23 |
| indus | Paullo_: nvidia-glx-96 is also good | 10:23 |
| TonyTheTiger | iceroot, sorry to probe but what do you mean for "normal c-programs"? | 10:23 |
| cankoy | mr_danne123: lspci | 10:23 |
| ActionParsnip | mr_danne123: sudo lshw -C network | 10:24 |
| iceroot | TonyTheTiger: there are also packages with more headers, like the kernel-headers | 10:24 |
| indus | Paullo_: mainmenu>system>administration >symnaptic package manager | 10:24 |
| TonyTheTiger | im a comp sci student so i would rather set it up properly once. | 10:24 |
| ActionParsnip | mr_danne123: once you get the product line you can use that in websearches | 10:24 |
| iceroot | TonyTheTiger: for ANSI-C you just need gcc | 10:24 |
| ActionParsnip | mr_danne123: if its some broadcom 43xx thing you will need this: | 10:24 |

| psypher246 | hi all, does anyone know why there seems to a be a 4GB file size limit when using nautilus to view ftp sites? The file is clearly larger than 4GB but it only shows 4GB, yet when i copy it it copies the whole file. this does not happen with firefox so not a server side issue | 10:24 |
| mr_danne123 | thx I will look there | 10:25 |
| ActionParsnip | TonyTheTiger: so would none comp sci students want to set it up multiple times? | 10:25 |
| indus | Paullo_: always reboot after installing drivers | 10:25 |
| ActionParsnip | mr_danne123: the link is ONLY relevant if you have a broadcom based device | 10:25 |
| Paullo_ | indus ActionParsnip i can´t enter in system | 10:25 |
| indus | Paullo_: why not? | 10:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: its a terminal command | 10:25 |
| TonyTheTiger | ActionParsnip, depends, i cant answer for them. :D | 10:25 |

| cankoy | wireless(Atheros) is broken after upgrade to Karmic, kernel log says "wlan0: disassociating by local choice (reason=3)". Any idea how to fix? | 10:26 |
| indus | Paullo_: what do you see in front ? | 10:26 |
| Paullo_ | because im install the 173 yesterday and now just enter in mode text | 10:26 |
| indus | Paullo_: ok no problem | 10:26 |
| Paullo_ | but i can enter with irssi and try | 10:26 |
| cishpix | anyone can help me about samba? I've upgrade my samba from previous version to 3.4.2. after that, my windows XP cannot login to the domain. I don't change anything in smb.conf. what should I do? | 10:26 |
| indus | Paullo_: in prompt, type sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-96 | 10:26 |
| Paullo_ | now im in windows i enter there end us give the information ok? | 10:26 |
| iceroot | cishpix: #samba | 10:26 |
| Paullo_ | indus this comando will replace the atual driver? | 10:27 |
| indus | Paullo_: hmm windows? | 10:27 |
| iceroot | cishpix: and maybe #windows | 10:27 |
| indus | Paullo_: this command installare a different versione of the drivers :) | 10:27 |
| indus | Paullo_: will remove 173v and install 96 | 10:27 |
| cishpix | iceroot: I've ask the question to #samba but nobody respond to me | 10:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: ok uninstall all the nvidia stuff using my command and reboot, you will then use the open nv driver. You can then run the command I gave to install the driver and then reboot, if that doesnt help redo it all but before the 2nd reboot run: sudo touch /etc/X11/xorg.conf; sudo nvidia-xconfig | 10:27 |
| iceroot | cishpix: then you have to wait | 10:27 |
| Oyoz | is there an antivirus for ubuntu?? | 10:27 |
| iceroot | Oyoz: clamav | 10:28 |
| erUSUL | !av | Oyoz | 10:28 |
| ubottu | Oyoz: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 10:28 |
| seed__ | 0.0 | 10:28 |
| cishpix | iceroot: off course | 10:28 |
| indus | Paullo_: ok you can follow ActionParsnip or he 'll kill me | 10:28 |
| Paullo_ | haha | 10:28 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: i'm just suggesting :D | 10:28 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip i install the 173? | 10:28 |
| Paullo_ | im install this drive yesterday and i cant enter in X today =/ | 10:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: sure, just make sure you remove all the nvidia packages in command line then reboot | 10:28 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip man but yesterday i install the 173 and they don´t run | 10:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: you can then run: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-173 nvidia-173-modaliases to install the driver once back in X | 10:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: did the DKMS stage complete? | 10:29 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip DKMS what is this? | 10:29 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: modaliases i think is automatically installed? no? | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: if you watched the screen while the driver installed you'd see it | 10:30 |
| indus | hmm no | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: not sure, i always tell it, its in a few guides ive read too so I always explicitly install it | 10:30 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip they install sucessul | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: but does DKMS run? | 10:30 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip i reinstall the ubuntu more 10 times man | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: DKMS makes the kernel driver for the card for the current kernel | 10:30 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: actually its only required so that driver appears in hardware drivers, i remember | 10:30 |
| Paullo_ | i try to install this with many metods | 10:30 |
| VanessaE | great, now I've lost sound entirely. | 10:31 |
| indus | it should be auto | 10:31 |
| * VanessaE screams! | 10:31 | |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip i dont now answear this question | 10:31 |
| indus | Paullo_: did you download nvidia driver from website ? | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: whats the question | 10:31 |
| kryptn | Quick question, How do i prevent windows in gnome to go above the top x pixels of my screen? | 10:31 |
| indus | VanessaE: why scream? | 10:31 |
| Paullo_ | indus i try to web sit too | 10:31 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip DKMS | 10:31 |
| VanessaE | indus: because Linux right now is being STUPID. | 10:31 |
| VanessaE | $ alsamixer --> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory | 10:32 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: correction Linux itself the kernel is fine or pretty much fine, your sound issue will be an Ubuntu issue | 10:32 |
| VanessaE | wtf does this mean in English? | 10:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: i told you, it makes the kernel module driver for the card for the current kernel, it will run each time you get a new kernel to give the new nvidia kernel module | 10:32 |
| kryptn | I dont want windows to overlap my conky window | 10:32 |
| indus | Paullo_: its called dynamic kernel module support, means you dont have to update kernel every time you update the driver | 10:32 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: I know your angry, but you shoudn't really swear in this channel | 10:32 |
| Paullo_ | await i cant enter in X but i cant enter in irssi(irc for terminal)there i enter here | 10:33 |
| Dretje | hello, I just did an upgrade from version 9.04 to 9.10 but now my Wireless hardware is not fully recognized. I am using the SMC 2835W EU (not v2) PC card | 10:33 |
| Paullo_ | and talk | 10:33 |
| Tesssa | 9.10 tells you and advises you nvidia drivers and highlights 185 Paullo as 9.04 does and will install them | 10:33 |
| Tesssa | did for me | 10:33 |
| Paullo_ | im going to linux now | 10:33 |
| === MaT-dg1 is now known as MaT-dg | ||
| Paullo_ | await | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: thats because irssi does not need an x server to run | 10:33 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: and it worked fine in 9.04 yes? Well many people have experienced problems after upgrading 9.04 to 9.10. | 10:33 |
| Paullo_ | yeah | 10:33 |
| indus | 185 drivers suck | 10:33 |
| Paullo_ | await | 10:33 |
| indus | iam on 173 | 10:33 |
| indus | all 180 is bad for older cards | 10:33 |
| Dretje | YES worked very well indeed | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: i use 190, not too bad at all | 10:33 |
| TonyTheTiger | sebsebseb, what do you mean sound is ubuntu? does the kernel not handle the sound and if not how is the sound module a part of ubuntu? | 10:33 |
| indus | i loved the 88 series from dapper actually | 10:34 |
| indus | worked super with my 7600 gt | 10:34 |
| Tesssa | 185 is working brilliant for me in 9.10 | 10:34 |
| Beryllium | Hmm, just tried installing 190, when I restarted xserver would not start, couldn't even get to a TTY | 10:34 |
| === TonyTheTiger is now known as linNewb | ||
| VanessaE | in this case, I indeed mean Linux, as in the kernel. | 10:34 |
| sebsebseb | TonyTheTiger: pulseaudio issues and such since Ubuntu 8.04, many other distros though have been rather fine with puleaudio | 10:34 |
| indus | Tesssa: try running a game wit h it and al artifacts appear | 10:34 |
| VanessaE | just downgraded to 2.6.28.5, which I *know for a fact* works fine on this box. | 10:34 |
| jest | I have problem with typing accented letters using AltGr | 10:34 |
| indus | doesnt return to the desktop cleanly with tearing of wallpaper across etc | 10:34 |
| erUSUL | TonyTheTiger: the stack is → kernel+alsa_sound_drivers <---> alsa_libs + pulseaudio <---> applications | 10:35 |
| jest | After 2-3 days ago' update AltGr stopped working and behaves just like normal Alt | 10:35 |
| indus | dell developed dkms btw | 10:35 |
| jest | Does anyone experience something similar? | 10:35 |
| whammo | this is funny: I see under wireless connections "Last Used: 1 day ago" but network-manager doesn't remember what it did yesterday, fwcutter only pretends like it did its job, lspci sees the devices but isn't telling, and jockey decided to clock out without telling anybody. sounds like a union shop! keep reinstalling and rebooting... it's ten minutes until lunch | 10:35 |
| Paullo_ | ActionParsnip: indes im in irssi | 10:35 |
| Paullo_ | now | 10:35 |
| Tesssa | mine isnt a older card indus and it works perfect | 10:35 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: well not much in 9.10 that is worth it end user featurewise, as in stuff you see. It's still ok to run 9.04, it has about a year of support left, plus 10.04 will be out at the end of April which is the next Long Term Support version, which has to be pretty good, or I have a feeling quite a few people wil be leaving Ubuntu | 10:35 |
| linNewb | sebsebseb, right but what i dont understand is since distro's are effectively different application set ups then why one thing doesnt work in one situation and does in another distro... | 10:35 |
| indus | Tesssa: ok | 10:35 |
| Paullo_ | comands what u sad? | 10:35 |
| indus | Tesssa: dont know, iam unhappy ever since 18* came out | 10:36 |
| Tesssa | as 180 did in 9.04 | 10:36 |
| indus | Tesssa: happily using 173 now | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Paullo_: sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia* | 10:36 |
| Oyoz | when i type iwconfig,it says no wireless extention.What could be the problem? | 10:36 |
| indus | Tesssa: but 190 has gpu fan speed control it seems so iam curious | 10:36 |
| jaysonsantos | Hello guys, After upgrading to Ubuntu Karmic my compiz is extremely low. Is the something I can do to solve that ? | 10:36 |
| sebsebseb | linNewb: ,beause they don't all deal with wireless and sound exactly the same for example | 10:36 |
| Beryllium | I'm having problems with 190, hangs at blackscreen when I boot. | 10:37 |
| linNewb | ok i guess ill leave it at that for now. | 10:37 |
| Dillizar | hi what do i need to type in terminal so i can add my xorg | 10:37 |
| Tesssa | the upgrade advised me 185 so i did that one | 10:37 |
| Oyoz | my laptop is wireless certified,but i don't access the net wirelessly | 10:37 |
| Dretje | SebSebSeb: what you say is just wait , see and downgrade again :-). I will try another card. Maybe this will work fine thanx. | 10:37 |
| kryptn | How do i prevent windows from overlapping conky? | 10:37 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: If it worked fine in 9.04, not much point really trying to configure it in 9.10 in my opinion, just put 9.04 back on. Or even try some other distros if you want. | 10:38 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: also calling 9.04 a downgrade isn't quite right, because with Ubuntu it's not about what is the latest version or the Long Term Support version, it's about which releases are still supported | 10:39 |
| Dillizar | how can i change my xorg? only half of my display is working | 10:39 |
| Beryllium | Is there a way to store my current applications/user data in some way that I can transfer to a new installation? | 10:39 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: sometimes an older version is going to be better for a user, beasue of the user them selves, or their hardware, or both | 10:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Beryllium: backup the entirety of $HOME | 10:39 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: Newer is not always better! | 10:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Beryllium: the settings for apps are stored in hidden folders in there so transferring those will transfer settings | 10:40 |
| Tesssa | must admit indus had a lot of problems trying to get 9.10 onto my puter tried one last time if that didnt work i was going back to 9.04 but it worked though must admit don't know why i bothered | 10:40 |
| Beryllium | ActionParsnip: Much thanks. | 10:40 |
| Dretje | Sebsebseb: I learned not to upgrade just like this. Wait and try first. I will try to get it running (just for the learning and share this with the community. Newer is a challenge, not always beter | 10:41 |
| sebsebseb | Tesssa: Don't know why you bothered doing what? Upgrading to 9.10? | 10:41 |
| Tesssa | yep sebsebseb | 10:41 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: Well I suggest checking out the release notes when a new version comes out | 10:41 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: Then you can also make a more educated decision if your going to upgrade or not. | 10:41 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: Plus if you wait a bit you can check out this channel for the issues. | 10:41 |
| VanessaE | no asoundconf utility in Karmic either? | 10:42 |
| VanessaE | GAH! | 10:42 |
| Tesssa | its slower to boot up and doesnt do anything different or better than 9.04 | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Beryllium: if the settings are important to you you should have them backed up anyway | 10:42 |
| Tesssa | well not to me | 10:42 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: Before you get it yourself or not. | 10:42 |
| sebsebseb | Tesssa: It's meant to be faster to boot up | 10:42 |
| Tesssa | but will see how it goes on | 10:42 |
| Dretje | SebSebSeb: my virtual machines work just fine using 9.10. So nothing happens when trying out. My descision is based on testing. No harm is done when this goes wrong | 10:42 |
| Tesssa | i can assure you sebsebseb it is slower on boot up | 10:43 |
| sebsebseb | !notes | Dretje | 10:43 |

| knecht | i need to compile openCV on ubuntu karmic, can't get it compiling when using the instructions on http://opencv.willowgarage.com/wiki/InstallGuide. Does anyone use OpenCV Version 2 on Ubuntu Karmic ? | 10:43 |
| Dillizar | how can i edit my xorg? | 10:43 |
| Tesssa | but no doubt as time goes on it will get better | 10:43 |

| === ZAHER is now known as Guest90621 | ||
| sebsebseb | Dretje: Yes that's something else you can do test it, on a spare computer, or in a virtual machine or whatever, whilst it's in development, I have been doing this since Alpha 4 on this one, so got boot up issues still, but when I get round to installing the final, that should go away. It's looking like the weekend when I do OS stuff on this computer. | 10:44 |
| anormallu | i have a question | 10:44 |
| ycat | Hello there! I have a problem concerning the detection of a usb-hdd file format under ubuntu. only text mode is available. Any hints? (Using Ubuntu 8.10). The detection of the proper file format is needed for a backup. Thanks in advance! | 10:44 |
| SURFkees | Anyone know what this error message is? "Clocksource tsc unstable" | 10:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Dillizar: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you have installed karmic rather than upgraded to karmic you do not have the file (but you can make one if you want and it will be used) | 10:44 |
| VanessaE | so what am I supposed to use to configure alsa from the command line, with asoundconf gone? | 10:45 |
| sebsebseb | Dretje: ,but from what I have seen of 9.10 I am not impressed, so i'll be keeping the other computer on 9.04 for now. Plus how if I upgrade it I might get issues, and I don't feel like clean installing Ubuntu any time soon on there. | 10:45 |
| * VanessaE grumbles | 10:45 | |

| barra_ | can i install virtualbox on ubuntu server? | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Dillizar: I can give you mine, if you empty out the details you could use it, you must leave the identifiers in | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | barra_: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose | 10:49 |
| sebsebseb | barra_: uhmm I guess so, but if your using the server version and on 64bit you could do KVM instead | 10:49 |
| barra_ | think u | 10:49 |
| sebsebseb | barra_: as long as you got hardware virtulization | 10:49 |
| Dretje | Ebsebseb: The world of virtual machines is just great. Running Vsphere you can do anything you like without compromising the stability of your enviremont. Thanx I'll be on my way | 10:49 |
| whammo | umm maybe pulse is better now. ardour2 worked almost instantly for me without any fuss, except I've been too busy to find if it's good for the job this time | 10:49 |

| sebsebseb | Dretje: Vsphere?? | 10:50 |
| Dretje | sebsebseb: Vmware v4 | 10:51 |

| anormallu | i installed proftpd in ubuntu 9.10 ... cand you tell me what i have to do to setup the user witch is conecting to ftp to see just the folder /home/ftp-share and do not have access to see all the folders from / ??? | 10:54 |

| Dretje | Sebsebseb: Vsphere is the latest edition of the ESX server family. Virtual box is nice but not as sophisticated as the server version of Vmware. The best free software can get, you only need hardware that is compatible. VIrtualbox is more flexible with hardware, but not as stable as this. | 10:55 |

| sebrock | Got a quick question here, when I install a new kernel or header files I get two packages of each, eg. linux-headers-2.6.31-14 and linux-headers-2.6.31-14-server.

| sebsebseb | barra_: I don't know much about it, but there was a session about it yesterday as part of Ubuntu Open Week there's a log as well | 11:03 |

| === gm_ is now known as gm | ||
| barra_ | is kvm better than virtualbox on ubuntu? | 11:05 |
| VanessaE | there, the target machine's back in the state it was in when I first signed on (with the Ubuntu-supplied kernel) | 11:05 |
| sebsebseb | barra_: depends on what it's going to be used for and the user, this is also the same answer in reply to, is Virtualbox better than VMware | 11:06 |
| jrib | coolpro: yeah there are some default bluetooth utilities that let you do that. "bluez" and "obex" are terms you can use to find more info | 11:06 |
| kebomix | i have ubuntu 9.10 and ati 3650 card, it is very slow while restoring windows (Unminimize) , any solution ? | 11:06 |

| Paddy1 | Hi. With the release of Karmic with broken 3g usb modem support, a bug which was reported and flagged by the reporters as being critical, but with not even a mention of this in the Release Notes, I'm trying to find out how such a thing could happen. Is Canonical even aware of this issue and how can it be raised or escalated ? An entire category of network h/w and users have been left with useless laptops and no easy way gain access to the internet, so what | 11:06 |
| catmando | jrib, i did - I want to know how to set up tightvnc to allow multiple users to connect to their own desktop.; | 11:06 |
| VanessaE | (using a command line util to play music, for testing) | 11:06 |
| jrib | coolpro: here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 11:07 |
| barra_ | i don t want to talk about vmware because it is not free | 11:07 |
| sebsebseb | Paddy1: Of course people can put 9.04 back on, but many won't want too. | 11:07 |
| VanessaE | sebsebseb, many *can't* put it back on | 11:07 |
| VanessaE | it's too old | 11:07 |
| jrib | Paddy1: if you're asking about bug procedures, try #ubuntu-bugs | 11:07 |
| sebsebseb | VanessaE: no it's not since it's still supported by security updates | 11:07 |
| Tesssa | 9.04 works perfect | 11:08 |
| VanessaE | security updates != normal software | 11:08 |
| coolpro | jrib: can i send sms messages with them? | 11:08 |
| jrib | coolpro: don't know | 11:08 |
| Tesssa | updates for 12 months | 11:08 |
| VanessaE | you ask for help with a program, the first thing the author usually asks is "did you try the latest version" | 11:08 |
| juritecnia | hello | 11:08 |
| VanessaE | and 9 times out of 10, you need the latest version of your *distro* (that's Karmic) in order to try the latest version of the program in question | 11:09 |
| juritecnia4 | Hola Dani | 11:09 |
| Paddy1 | sebsebseb: Thanks. The issue is that many people cannot put it back on, they cannot redownload it, or anything else. What can be done in a situation such as this, it's chicken and egg? | 11:09 |
| VanessaE | I run into this quite frequently. | 11:09 |
| barra_ | ok thanks for all answers | 11:09 |
| fr4gd13b | hi, i have the probloem discussed here #374090. Now, i need to install ubuntu somehow on that machine. But the alternate 9.10 installer just wont give me the cureses based setup screen. How do i force the installer to use the very minimum gfx drivers ? | 11:09 |
| juritecnia | bye | 11:09 |
| whammo | so madwifi doesn't exist in repo anymore, anybody here have a working ar2413 card? | 11:09 |
| sebsebseb | Paddy1: I heard about some ping program or something, that makes going back to an older release or wahtever easier | 11:09 |
| sebsebseb | Paddy1: since you put stuff on the external hard disk, and then just restore or something | 11:10 |

| Carnage\ | I recently updated to Ubuntu Karmic and I just realised, that there is no `smbpasswd` program anymore to administrate the samba users. | 11:10 |
| Carnage\ | Does anybody now what program replaced it? | 11:10 |
| Carnage\ | Funny enough, I found a tutorial on the web how to setup samba with Karmic and it uses smbpasswd... | 11:10 |
| === filippo is now known as Philip26 | ||

| jrib | Carnage\: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=smbpasswd&mode=exactfilename&suite=karmic&arch=any | 11:11 |
| danne_ | hello can anyone help me? I need to get wifi up and running. I got Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 as a network card. Trying to use this guide to get it working: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx . But I dont know how to activat b43-fwcutter | 11:11 |
| jrib | Carnage\: you probably don't have samba installed | 11:11 |
| igama | danne_, install this packages : bcmwl-kernel-source bcmwl-modaliases | 11:12 |
| Carnage\ | I have samba installed, but apparently smbpasswd got moved to a different package | 11:12 |
| VanessaE | I was about to say that if he were to just type 'smbpasswd' at the command line, the terminal will respond with the name of the package he needs. | 11:12 |
| kebomix | hello , i downloaded ati driver from ati's website , any idea how to remove it ? | 11:12 |
| Carnage\ | jrib: But installing smb-common-bin solves my problem | 11:12 |
| Carnage\ | VanessaE: It didn't here | 11:12 |
| VanessaE | weird | 11:12 |
| Carnage\ | And I tried search with apt-file which somehow didn't come up with that package... | 11:12 |
| VanessaE | still, that's a feature I'm still getting used to | 11:13 |
| danne_ | could not find bcmwl-kernel-source bcmwl-modaliases | 11:13 |
| VanessaE | 10 years of "$foo: command not found" kinda sticks with you. :) | 11:13 |
| Carnage\ | That's right | 11:13 |
| Carnage\ | Well I used that feature several times already too. But this time, it didn't get triggered, for whatever reason... | 11:13 |
| Carnage\ | Thanks for your help! :) | 11:14 |
| VanessaE | now, if there's one feature I need to *disable*, it's this G*d forsaken application-specific tab complete thing | 11:14 |

| Paullo_ | and he not here more =[ | 11:15 |
| jrib | Paullo_: yeah. ActionParsnip left | 11:15 |
| VanessaE | (every now and again, I run into a combination of program and argument that I can't tab complete because the subsystem controlling it thinks that the program can't open certain types of files, when I know it can) | 11:15 |
| moddexx | buongiorno belle e belli, | 11:15 |
| jrib | VanessaE: so fix the tab completion :) | 11:15 |
| Paullo_ | jrib: i try to install my video | 11:15 |
| Paullo_ | i install the exactaly drive | 11:16 |
| Paddy1 | sebsebseb: I'm not affected myself, (well I am, and could work around, but it's such a hassle I changed distro). My concern is that such a huge regression could be reported yet was seemingly missed entirely, and the consequences are huge. EG. I'm sure a vast majority of netbooks use 3g connections, so what for Ubuntu Netbook Remix users who've upgraded and don't have physical media for reinstalls of old versions ? I'm trying to find out how to raise this | 11:16 |

| Paullo_ | moddexx: acept update and problem go out | 11:16 |
| jrib | VanessaE: starting by reading about the "bash-completion" package is where I would start (I don't use bash, so don't know) | 11:17 |
| iceroot | how to delete a file and all hardlinks on it? | 11:17 |
| Paullo_ | I install my video card,rebot and now just enter in mode text,what im do?? | 11:17 |
| jrib | iceroot: you'd probably use find | 11:17 |
| VanessaE | ahh | 11:17 |
| VanessaE | yeah, that's the package in question, jrib | 11:17 |
| iceroot | jrib: hm, so there is no way to do a real delete on the file on harddisk? | 11:18 |
| VanessaE | I'll dig into it later, I'm too frustrated right now over this stupid sound issue. | 11:18 |
| jrib | iceroot: what do you mean real delete? | 11:18 |
| * VanessaE grumbles. buffer underruns on an Athlon 64x2 3800+ with a gig of ram. Shameful. | 11:18 | |
| iceroot | jrib: rm foo is deleting the file and counting the hardlink-counter -1, if hardlink = 0, the file is no more on the hdd | 11:19 |
| purple_processor | VanessaE: well Ive found tab-completions dont work for root user files unless you sudo b4 it.. so there might be somthing there | 11:19 |
| jrib | iceroot: right | 11:19 |
| iceroot | jrib: and i want to set hardlink=0 | 11:19 |
| Paullo_ | I install my video card,rebot and now just enter in mode text,what im do?? | 11:19 |
| jrib | iceroot: then rm all of the hardlinks using for example « find » | 11:20 |
| VanessaE | purple_processor, perhaps, but I was referring to a scenerio like this: $ xine /ho{tab}van{tab}somefile{tab} <-- should expand to somefile-or-another.iso | 11:20 |
| VanessaE | but the bash-completion thing thinks that xine can't deal with an ISO file, so it refuses to let me tab-complete it. | 11:21 |
| iceroot | jrib: yes, find is one way to do it, i thought there is maybe a special rm option but cant find anything in manpage. a find can take very long, hardlink=0 should be faster | 11:21 |
| jrib | iceroot: how do you envision that working out of curiousity? | 11:21 |
| purple_processor | VanessaE: And when you remove xine it completes fine? from CLI | 11:22 |
| === FFEMTcJ is now known as FFEMTcJ|afk | ||
| iceroot | jrib: good question | 11:23 |
| VanessaE | purple_processor, well, if I were, say, to try nano /ho{tab}van{tab}somefile{tab} then sure, it'll complete it. | 11:23 |

| erUSUL | !gksudo | coz_ | 11:35 |
| ubottu | coz_: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 11:35 |

| aaron11 | purple_processor: ls: cannot access /dev/modem: No such file or directory | 11:37 |
| coz_ | android_ani_, I think in karmic you are going to be wanting for those again :) | 11:37 |
| android_ani_ | is it a usb modem? it has to be /dev/ttyACM0 | 11:37 |
| damo | hiya all :) | 11:38 |
| purple_processor | aaron11: im only guessing but I bet /dev/modem is a softlink to a serial device.. ttys0 but I could be wrong. what does dmeg say when it pluged in.. should give it a device file in /dev/ | 11:38 |
| aaron11 | android_ani_: It is a USB modem | 11:38 |
| damo | im here to try and sort my mobile broadband | 11:38 |
| erUSUL | purple_processor: android_ani_ is a 3G modem/dongle | 11:38 |
| damo | its a usb modem | 11:38 |
| aaron11 | purple_processor: Oh should I plug it in | 11:38 |
| android_ani_ | coz_ i already have all those in Karmic except for bot speed :D...i got custom GUIs from synaptic and for grub...i made a pyGTK frontend | 11:38 |
| ZachK_ | damo: hello | 11:39 |
| android_ani_ | aaron11 type "lsusb" in the termina; and paste the results | 11:39 |
| coz_ | android_ani_, oh ok ... in my opinion karmic is the worse version other than gutsy :) | 11:39 |
| damo | hello | 11:39 |
| purple_processor | aaron11: erUSUL haha usb3g... yes id plug it in and see what dmesg reports.. | 11:39 |
| damo | do u think i can get my mobile broadband to install and work with wine ? | 11:39 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: What? Gutsy is a good version | 11:39 |
| anton | hi ive copied my root and home partition from my harddrive to a new one with rsync -a, edited menu.lst and fstab, but gnome wont start xserver does, errormessage before and after login in gdm is: /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check gives status 256 back and gdm says that powermanagers standardkonfiguration isnt installed properly, what do i have to do now | 11:39 |

| coz_ | sebsebseb, i understand but grub2 beta seems the wrong approach ...just my opinion | 11:46 |
| brijith | damo: in that one says by configuring wvdial could help him in connecting | 11:46 |

| damo | i see thanks | 11:46 |
| damo | brb im going to go figer this out | 11:46 |
| brijith | damo:google to get a good how to to configure it | 11:46 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: Well Grub 2 is needed for Ext4, 9.04 has an older version or whatever when Ext4 is done | 11:46 |
| ZachK_ | awaad: let me look | 11:46 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: That version can also be used in 9.10 after a 9.04 Ext4 upgrade | 11:46 |
| sebsebseb | I think | 11:47 |
| awaad | ZacK_: Take your time. | 11:47 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: I am not actsaully running the final just yet, after testing on this computer since alpha 4. Maybe i'll do my clean install tonight or tommorow. | 11:47 |
| * ZachK_ is researching for Awaad | 11:47 | |
| coz_ | sebsebseb, ok well I will have to do more research on this but a script driven boot loader seems a bit "bulky" especially for general usage | 11:47 |
| android_ani_ | having a separate /boot partition while installation solves many grub based problems | 11:47 |
| fr4gd13b | according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NC20 i only have to install a debian package for openchrome and edit the corg.conf. But i just dont have an xorg.conf? Where do i configure that? | 11:47 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: above maybe more like probably | 11:47 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: Re installing Ubuntu isn't exactly fun, but tonight or in the day on Saturday I think | 11:49 |
| coz_ | sebsebseb, you are reinstalling? | 11:50 |
| nic1 | what is the command to open the cd? | 11:50 |
| brijith | damo: http://linux-minds.blogspot.com/2009/05/how-to-configure-bsnl-evdo-usb.html | 11:50 |
| coz_ | nic1, eject -T | 11:50 |
| coz_ | nic1, to close it is eject -t | 11:50 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: I am currently running an that was alpha 4, that I have then applied updates to, altough not got the recent updates. It has a boot up issue as well, where the file systems want to check each time. So yes re installing as in getting rid of this install and putting the final on. | 11:51 |
| brijith | damo:it worked for me in ubuntu 8.04. I think it will be the same in 9.10 aslo | 11:51 |
| nic1 | coz_, not to eject but i just inserted to see the contents? | 11:51 |
| ZachK_ | awaad: [link] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EclipseIDE | 11:51 |
| coz_ | sebsebseb, well I dont think you will find better boot sequence on a fesh install of the release but its not bad | 11:51 |
| coz_ | nic1, oh! | 11:51 |
| coz_ | nic1, they should have popped open a window right away | 11:52 |
| Caesi | hi all - I updated to Ubuntu 9.10 and now my touchpad no longer works, could anyone help? :) cheers | 11:52 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: Well hopefuly it won't want to disk check every time I boot up :) | 11:52 |
| ZachK_ | Caesi: problems have been found with upgrading rather than doing a fresh installation. | 11:52 |
| coz_ | nic1, you can go under Place/Computer and right click the cd icon to see if it is recognizing the contents | 11:52 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: a recover a journal and whatever it does | 11:52 |
| coz_ | sebsebseb, it should not | 11:52 |

| ZachK_ | Caesi: do you have any important info on the system? | 11:53 |
| nic1 | coz_: i dont have any gui, only terminal i have | 11:53 |
| DASPRiD | * /dev/dsp that is | 11:53 |
| Caesi | ZachK_: what are you suggesting? :)) | 11:53 |
| coz_ | DASPRiD, open a terminal alsamixer see if anything is muted or the pcm slider is off | 11:53 |
| ZachK_ | Caesi: please answer my question | 11:53 |
| Caesi | ZachK_: sorry.. not really, I can back it up | 11:53 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: plus I want to test the boot up and shut down with Ext3 first and then do Ext4 for my proper install. Since Ext4 in 9.04 speeds up boot up and shut down and disk checking, but since the kernel they have and such their it's not perfectly stable. | 11:53 |
| zoro | hi guys | 11:53 |
| Multiply | I'm trying to boot from a live cd, over PXE, and so far it succeeded. But I keep getting: "(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system" - Why is that? I simply want to access some files from my old PC, and transfer them to my backup server. - Same issue as here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1264198 - Any suggestions? | 11:54 |

| zoro | dont know why | 11:54 |
| ZachK_ | Caesi: so if you lost what you have it would be a problem? | 11:54 |
| coz_ | sebsebseb, the boot in karmic is slow period ext4 isnt going to make that faster...I just reinstalled fresh and it still takes about one minute to get to log on | 11:54 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: and most people that have done an upgrade from 9.04 will have Ext3 | 11:54 |
| hacked_kernel | I using Empathy on Ubuntu Karmic, trying to add accounts but it can't connect to any protocol. | 11:54 |
| Caesi | ZachK_: no | 11:54 |
| ZachK_ | Caesi: please be EXPLICIT. It would NOT CAUSE ANY issues? | 11:55 |
| Caesi | ZachK_: no it would not, I'm running Windows 7 on the other partition and Ubuntu 9.10 is just for fun | 11:55 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: the boot up is meant to be faster though. Well from what I have seen of 9.10 when testing I am not impressed, so if the final is slower than 9.04 with Ext4 i'll probably put that back on, or put another distro on | 11:55 |
| ZachK_ | Caesi: ok..do you know how to download an ubuntu iso and then make a live cd of said iso? | 11:56 |
| Caesi | ZachK_: yes | 11:56 |
| ZachK_ | Caesi: ok do that...download the i386 or x64 iso depending on your system of 9.10 jaunty and then burn a live cd of that...do a fresh install and then get back to me | 11:57 |
| coz_ | sebsebseb, You may be tempted to downgrade or use another distribution..I am an ubuntu die hard so ...although I test other distributions I always come back :) | 11:57 |
| ZachK_ | coz_: agreed | 11:57 |
| Caesi | ZachK_: hm ok thanks.. I was trying to avoid that, but I will maybe do so this weekend. Is it worth converting the partition to ext4? | 11:58 |
| indus | hacked_kernel: use pidgin then | 11:58 |
| indus | hacked_kernel: or.. | 11:58 |
| ZachK_ | Caesi: i honestly wouldn't know...sorry..but i don't use any os other than linux | 11:58 |
| erebus | Anyone ever run into an error where the install to a new hard disk, reboot and then receive the message saying disk ee0q ### etc not recognized press any key to continue? Not sure if it is something wrong with the formatting or what? Disk checks show no errors on the drive though... | 11:58 |
| indus | hacked_kernel: restart empathy and check if it connects | 11:59 |
| Caesi | ZachK_: yes, but are you using the new ext4 file system for Linux? | 11:59 |
| hacked_kernel | indus, i reinstalled it and i get the same problem | 11:59 |
| ZachK_ | i wouldn't know Caesi .... | 11:59 |
| ActionParsnip | erebus: try booting to LiveCD to partition and format it, it could help | 11:59 |
| Caesi | ZachK_: ok thanks for your help, appreciated | 11:59 |
| ZachK_ | Caesi: probably as i did a full install | 11:59 |
| indus | hacked_kernel: remove the folder .empathy in home folder and try | 11:59 |
| erebus | thanks ActionParsnip | 11:59 |
| Caesi | k cool | 11:59 |
| ZachK_ | Caesi: no problem..that's what we are here for! | 11:59 |

| indus | hacked_kernel: do you see any users in main window? | 12:00 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: I started with Fedora Core 2 and 4, with no Internet access since this silly wireless device, I coudn't exactly have that desktop hard wired at the time. Then Ubuntu since the second release since 2005. I did a lot of distro vm'ing about two or three months ago, but other distros uhmm and I ended up staying with Ubuntu. Plus Fedora 11 woudn't install on here since it didn't like my partitions. I may not be fully happy with Ubuntu | 12:00 |
| sebsebseb | since 8.04, but I know how to use it, and am used to it now. So changing distro becomes a bit harder. | 12:00 |

| zniavre_ | gnome-look.org ? | 12:01 |
| coz_ | sebsebseb, my suggestion ...even though I complain....I would stick with ubuntu for now...it is most definitly getting better...and since lucid will begin work soon ...this will be the time to make suggestions based on the "bad" stuff in karmic | 12:01 |
| damo | ok thanks | 12:01 |
| geomi | Hi all. I would like to know if Ubuntu 9.10 creates partitions the right way, with an offset that is a power of 2, to avoid misalignment issues with SSDs and RAID arrays. | 12:01 |
| damo | cheers for that | 12:01 |
| ActionParsnip | geomi: i'd imagine it does whatever is needed | 12:02 |
| ZachK_ | geomi: I second with ActionParsnip | 12:02 |
| ActionParsnip | geomi: you could always use manual partitioning if you want to be 100% sure | 12:02 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: well yeah the non LTS versions are for testing new features and such. If Lucid turns out not to be a rather good release, maybe you and I should think more seriously about switching distro, or maybe even going BSD. | 12:02 |
| geomi | ActionParsnip: what does that even mean? it either does, or it doesnt... XP creates partitions at 31.5KiB thats BAD; Vista and higher at 1024KiB; this is still wrong for RAID5/SSDs with 640KiB erase blocks | 12:02 |
| sebsebseb | coz_: ,but yes Brainstorm that's where to suggest stuff, I haven't done that before | 12:02 |
| goodnight | "Hey Ubuntu, stop making Linux look bad" http://www.linux-mag.com/cache/7600/1.html | 12:03 |
| Caesi | how can I find out which kernel exactly I'm currently running? | 12:03 |
| ActionParsnip | geomi: i'd imgine if something is needed in that way then ubuntu will do it, if you dont want to let the automatic stuff do its thing or want to be sure of it, you can set it up yourself so then you know its good | 12:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Caesi: uname -a | 12:04 |
| Caesi | ActionParsnip: thanks | 12:04 |
| coz_ | sebsebseb, always feel free to suggest...with some decent explanation.. it will be heard if not used still worth the effort | 12:04 |
| csaba | if I have a service like mysqld, what should I do to have that service start automatically at system start? | 12:04 |
| erUSUL | csaba: that's done by default when you install it | 12:04 |
| csaba | erUSUL: let's assume it's not | 12:05 |
| ActionParsnip | !startup | 12:05 |
| ubottu | To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 12:05 |

| geomi | ActionParsnip: how can i set the offset myself then? The manual partitioner doesn't let me choose an offset | 12:05 |
| Caesi | How can I update to the newest kernel in Ubuntu 9.10 or is that just done automatically by updating/upgrading? | 12:06 |
| erUSUL | csaba: sudo update-rc.d [service_name] defaults | 12:06 |
| xand_ | Hello folks, i need to record a win7 image which is in udf filesystem, however i can't open it neither in isomaster, k3b, brasero nor gnome-baker. I'm able to mount it with '-t udf' though. Can anyone please help ? | 12:06 |
| geomi | ActionParsnip: only "beginning" or "end" which still doesnt tell if i will end up with a misalignment or not | 12:06 |
| csaba | ah damn it only works on debian systems... I have redhat | 12:06 |
| erUSUL | Caesi: the later if you have "linux-image" package installed | 12:06 |
| aperson | anyone know what's up with these new 'wallpaper bundles' ? | 12:06 |
| aperson | and possibly how to create them? | 12:06 |
| geomi | ActionParsnip: as you may know, RAIDs and SSDs require partitions/filesystems to be properly aligned; without this filesystem blocks may cover two flash erase blocks; leading to lower performance and higher wear on the flash cells | 12:07 |
| KristianDK | Hello, I'm running ESXi with a ubuntu VM, i just switched from DHCP network to static, and now it says that i dont have a network card :S It worked perfectly before - have you heard of this before? | 12:07 |
| ActionParsnip | geomi: you'd have to calculate the space with the offset andmake the partitions as needed | 12:07 |
| damo | need a site for themes for ubuntu | 12:07 |
| damo | the other one i tryed did not work | 12:07 |
| geomi | ActionParsnip: as said, i cannot enter an offset; and the only ubuntu forums thread i found did not have any answers | 12:07 |

| tavasti | does vmware-server Version 2.0.2 work in karmic? | 12:10 |

| longtime | Hi, I was wondering if anyone would be able to offer any help for my problem. I recently installed a video game via Wine and am recieving what I think is video lag, but may also be related to my firewall. | 12:12 |
| geomi | ActionParsnip: alright well thanks for your answers.. ill try fiddling with fdisk instead | 12:12 |
| the_dark_warrio | Note, Server > connect, and choosing Localhost gives me "CUPS server error", "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'httpConnectionEncrypt failed'." | 12:12 |
| tavasti | ActionParsnip, 2.0.1 didn't work without some patching, incompatible with recent kernel | 12:13 |
| tj83 | anyone know if the bug with devede is fixed where on some machines the final image comes out to be half the expected size? | 12:13 |
| ActionParsnip | tavasti: its free to try | 12:13 |

| ActionParsnip | moddexx: keep stuff in the channel, its the whole point of having a channel, more people can help | 12:14 |

| kane77 | I have problems with flash. On 32-bit it works OK, but on 64-bit I am sometimes unable to click on buttons (such as pause video etc) other times it work OK.. Anyone else experience the same thing? I did a clean install of firefox with new profile and it didn't help | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | kane77: ive seen people ask this a lot | 12:15 |
| indus | uzi_: with all the pulseaudio stuff and alsa , oss is a great fallback system | 12:15 |
| ward- | how can i setup 2 different x screens with my nvidia card? | 12:15 |
| indus | kane77: its a bug i have too, full screen i assume | 12:15 |
| ward- | it cannot savce the soncifg to xorg.xonf | 12:15 |
| ward- | CONFIG | 12:15 |
| ActionParsnip | ward-: its in nvidia-settings | 12:15 |
| ward- | ActionParsnip, yes but it cannot save | 12:15 |
| ActionParsnip | ward-: run: gksudo nvidia-settings | 12:15 |
| indus | ward-: gksu nvidia-settings | 12:16 |
| ward- | ActionParsnip, yes same problem | 12:16 |
| indus | seconded | 12:16 |
| oliver3 | uzi_, I was talking about OSS version FOUR, not OSS version THREE. OSSv4 is alive and kicking, and one HELL of a lot better than ALSA. ALSA is a bloody mess, if it would work properly I wouldn't be using OSS in the first place. | 12:16 |

| kane77 | indus, also in small video (regular video on youtube and other vide sites). | 12:16 |
| ward- | ActionParsnip, failed to parse is the error | 12:16 |
| indus | kane77: its a flash/firefox issue | 12:16 |
| ActionParsnip | ward-: you may have to run: sudo nvidia-xconfig | 12:16 |
| BezNalogov | The purpose is that where I wrote $user the username will flexible appear | 12:16 |
| indus | kane77: very hopeless i know | 12:16 |

| simion314 | i can't find a way to have sound in ubuntu 9.10, i tried alsamixer, any ideea ? | 12:17 |
| indus | simion314: try amixer | 12:17 |

I recently installed a video game via Wine and am recieving what I think is video lag, but may also be related to my firewall. The game is older, circa 1999, and my computer's hardware is more than capable of running it at full tilt, but I'm still not sure what might be the problem causing the lag I'm seeing. | 12:18 |

| sebsebseb | longtime: Wine does not run all programs as well as Windows | 12:19 |
| sebsebseb | longtime: Wine can run many programs and quite well, but a lot of Windows apps won't work at all, or will need some configuring and that's not that easy to do | 12:19 |
| uzi_ | fuck you | 12:19 |

| ActionParsnip | ward-: you need to generate an xorg.conf as karmicdoesnt have one by default but if one is present it will be used | 12:20 |
| Tartaros | when I try to end/kill a priviledged process using the gnome-system-monitor (started from the applet), it dies. Is that ok? :o | 12:20 |
| indus | uzi_: what is the problem you are having? | 12:20 |
| sebsebseb | !sorry | uzi_ | 12:20 |
| ubottu | uzi_: It's ok, I am only a bot so I cannot stay mad at you. For apologising to humans though, take a read of http://mdzlog.alcor.net/2009/07/20/on-apologies/ | 12:20 |

| Gyro54 | How do I remove the video drivers in 8.04? | 12:20 |
| longtime | Thanks for the info! I'll check out the Wine Application Db. | 12:20 |
| uzi_ | indus: i'm just here to help | 12:20 |
| geomi | ActionParsnip: it appears Ubuntu's fdisk creates partitions at 63 sector offset or 31.5KiB - this is the worst possible way of creating partitions and should be considered a bug. i will file a bug report. Just FYI :) | 12:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ward-: so once you make one with sudo nvidia-xconfig you can thenmanipulate it with gksudo nvidia-settings | 12:20 |
| elky | uzi_, you'll behave from now on? "/msg ubottu guidelines" will tell you how to do that. | 12:20 |
| moddexx | @ActionParsnip do you know abt the internal mic problem? | 12:21 |
| ActionParsnip | geomi: nice | 12:21 |
| uzi_ | elky: sorry, just testing the bot. It won't happen again | 12:21 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about oss4 | 12:21 |
| ward- | ActionParsnip, yeah i understand lol | 12:21 |
| ActionParsnip | moddexx: its about the sound cacrd which te mic is attatched to, as long as the card has the right driver and settings the mic will work | 12:21 |
| ward- | ActionParsnip, you happen to know how to restart x11 ? | 12:21 |
| indus | oliver3: i think you will need to install oss4 from the site | 12:21 |
| ward- | ctrl - alt backspace is not working anymore | 12:21 |
| ward- | used to use that | 12:22 |
| ActionParsnip | moddexx: if you run: sudo lshw -C sound you will see the sound card and you can use the product line to find guides | 12:22 |
| ActionParsnip | ward-: alt+k+print screen | 12:22 |
| indus | alsa oss is best option | 12:22 |
| moddexx | @ActionParsnip thanks bro I will try that | 12:22 |
| oliver3 | indus, I /have/ OSS4 installed. I just wanted to know if I could get the new control apps to work with it, especially the panel applet. | 12:22 |
| ward- | ActionParsnip, roflol | 12:22 |
| ActionParsnip | moddexx: you could also websearch the model of the laptop to see if there are guides specific o the model | 12:22 |
| oliver3 | indus, I've had it since 9.04, upgraded to 9.10 today | 12:22 |
| simion314 | indus, how to use amixer? a disabled Gnome login sound, this should not be the problem | 12:22 |

| tparcina | kernel-image-2.6.29 or hier, for Ubuntu server 9.04, where can I find? | 12:22 |

| uzi_ | tparcina: you can get from kernel.org | 12:23 |
| Multiply | I'm trying to use the Ubuntu Live CD, over PXE (tftpd32 as the server, on a windows machine). If I try to just use the Live verison, it fails with "(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system" - If I try to simply install Ubuntu, it fails, saying it can't find the cd. I'm not capable of burning the .iso to a CD, so I hope you got some suggestions. ^^ | 12:23 |
| oliver3 | uzi_, damn it I already explained this, from the community docs: Note: You may hear some people (e.g. Linux kernel developers) refer to OSS as "deprecated" or "replaced with ALSA". This is referring to OSS 3.x. Development of OSS 4.x is alive and well. | 12:23 |
| indus | simion314: just type amixer in terminal and see if anuything is muted , or try alsamixer | 12:23 |

| tparcina | epinky: Sorry, I don't understand this page :( | 12:24 |
| Multiply | The thing is.. I get it to boot from the disk, but when I try to install it, or run it, the disk doesn't seem to be loaded anymore, so it can't continue. :/ | 12:24 |
| uzi_ | oliver3: no worries, i should apologize too. | 12:24 |
| tparcina | uzi_: which one? | 12:24 |
| * oliver3 hugs uzi_ | 12:24 | |
| Tartaros | Multiply: how about floppy? :) UI think there are flopppy images that you can boot from and then continue from a usb stick | 12:25 |
| indus | i cant use even some alsa apps with that sound applet oliver3 | 12:25 |
| epinky | tparcina: look down page those are the links | 12:25 |
| Multiply | Tartaros, it doesn't have a floppy drive. xD | 12:25 |
| damo | anyone know where i can download internet exploror for ubuntu | 12:25 |
| oliver3 | indus, well I can't even change the global system volume with it, it's just disabled. I have to use ossxmix | 12:25 |
| Tartaros | you're a tough case :) | 12:25 |
| indus | like tv time | 12:25 |
| tparcina | epinky: OK, thank you. I'll search for them. | 12:25 |
| ward- | ActionParsnip, so now i got 2 seperate x screens, but i cannot change the backgrounds seperately, and one is widescreen and one not.... so its really urgly to look at now | 12:25 |
| Tartaros | damo: in ubuntu you explore the internet with firefox | 12:25 |
| damo | i dont like firefox | 12:25 |
| Multiply | Tartaros, but I got it booted. I can see the menues, and I can press continue on the live disk. After the logo, it spams a few messages, and ends up saying: "(initramfs) unable to find a medium containing a live file system" | 12:26 |
| damo | i wanna download the normal internet exploror | 12:26 |
| indus | oliver3: why are you using oss tthough, doh maybe you already answered it before | 12:26 |
| uzi_ | tparcia: how about you try packages.debian.org | 12:26 |
| Tartaros | Multiply: I don't understand what disk are you talking about | 12:26 |
| TheInfinity | damo: there is no internet explorer for ubuntu | 12:26 |
| elky | uzi_, you can test it in private messages all you like | 12:26 |
| damo | ok thanks | 12:26 |
| indus | uzi_: bad idea, try packages.ubuntu.com | 12:26 |
| Tartaros | damo: also there' | 12:26 |
| Tartaros | damo: there's nothing "normal" about IE | 12:26 |
| moddexx | @ActionParship I found the product names, but on the internet i dont see any ubuntu drivers for my laptop model i.e aceraspire 6350G | 12:26 |
| Multiply | Tartaros CD* :P | 12:26 |
| TheInfinity | damo: you can try opera instead. or ephany. or konqueror. | 12:26 |
| ActionParsnip | ward-: no idea there man, could try stitching 2 images together to make one that fills the horizontal res then apply it as wallpaper | 12:26 |
| damo | i need ie | 12:26 |
| Tartaros | damo: certainly not more tnormal than firefox | 12:26 |
| damo | im trying to go on a website called meetcam | 12:26 |
| Army_Man | how can i get a captive portal with local auth and gateway | 12:27 |
| damo | and it wont let me without IE | 12:27 |
| oliver3 | indus, I have /many/ problems with ALSA. Specifically whenever I load a Windows program with wine, I lose audio in /everything/ except Windows programs, even after all Windows programs have been closed. Also flash audio seems to just randomly stop working with ALSA. OSSv4 just solved all my problems. | 12:27 |
| Tartaros | Multiply: you just said you can't burn a cd. So you mean the virtual one? | 12:27 |
| ward- | ActionParsnip, wtf, i added genie effect again to compizx, its gone since i setup my second screen | 12:27 |
| damo | i need IE to go on this website called meetcam :( | 12:27 |
| Multiply | Tartaros, I got it booted on the .iso, over PXE. | 12:27 |

| indus | oliver3: i had always liked oss too | 12:27 |
| uzi_ | elky: i'm sorry, test what? | 12:27 |
| damo | im not lol | 12:28 |

| Tartaros | Multiply: well then, afraid I can't help you, never booted from network :) | 12:28 |
| indus | like /msg ubottu hi | 12:28 |

| indus | damo: the site sucks | 12:28 |
| * ward- removes second screen and starts fixing his system | 12:28 | |
| oliver3 | indus, it also seems stupid to have ALSA when every other UNIX OS uses OSS... Well, most. It just seems counter productive. | 12:28 |
| ActionParsnip | damo: theres ies4linux its a bit twitchy at best | 12:28 |
| Multiply | Tartaros, darn it. It's just weird that it boots fine, but can't continue after that point. :/ | 12:29 |
| oliver3 | indus, I'd rather not use software that doesn't play nice with others | 12:29 |
| damo | hmmmmm i downloaded tht action | 12:29 |
| indus | oliver3: hmm thats not true about alsa | 12:29 |
| damo | how do i install it | 12:29 |
| wrgb | Multiply: Is windows on the machine, maybe you culd use Wubi | 12:29 |
| indus | oliver3: which distros are these | 12:29 |
| ActionParsnip | tparcina: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.29-rc7/ | 12:29 |

| ActionParsnip | damo: websearch it and find out | 12:29 |
| moddexx | ActionParsnip, i now know the vendors name, ATI technologies, what next | 12:29 |
| indus | oliver3: but nvm, its working for you so thats good | 12:29 |
| Multiply | wrgb, it's as dead as it can be. | 12:29 |
| damo | oki doki | 12:29 |
| oliver3 | indus, not distros, OSs. The BSD family for example, and Solaris. | 12:29 |

| illio | After having updated to the newest system version, sun-java5 suddenly wasn't installed anymore and now I can't install it from the package manager? But I need it for development?.. How can I get it in the system? I don't care if it needs to be unsupported or anything like that.. | 12:30 |
| Multiply | Np, wrgb. I'll see if I can get it booted in safe mode, and try Wubi. | 12:30 |
| oliver3 | indus, I understood the need when OSSv3 became proprietary. But now there is no need for ALSA, it's a mess... it /should/ be depreciated in favour of OSSv4. But now there is an overlap with some cards working with one and not the other. | 12:30 |
| moddexx | @ActionParsnip ok, i have ATI Technologies Inc RV635 Audio device [Radeon HD 3600 Series] | 12:31 |

| jrib | Creap: ubottu gives server upgrade instructions as well on that page | 12:32 |
| wrgb | Multiply: all you have to do is copy wubi.exe to the directory with the iso in it, if you boot with network support it will download the iso | 12:32 |
| Creap | that guide is for update-manager | 12:32 |

| Multiply | sp4z, that's what I'm trying to do? :P | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: try typing actio then pressing tab while in irc,it will complete my nick for you | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: better | 13:09 |
| Phxdraught | green_3: I don't know | 13:09 |
| sp4z | multiply: lol | 13:09 |
| sp4z | multiply: ok that was the long version | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: ok and now can you open /etc/fstab and pastebin that too please | 13:09 |
| veggteppe | bazhang: when the usb is called: /dev/sdc, does that mean the unit i am gonna install on is /dev/sdc1? , dont have anything called sdc1:o | 13:10 |
| Multiply | sp4z, the only way I can boot the machine, at the moment, is over PXE. That's the shortest version. :P | 13:10 |
| Mjateznik | I have a video problem which I don't know exactly how to explain. You could say that my movieplayer (vlc and miro) shows only bits of the movie, it shows a few frames and locks on one of them while the sound keeps playing and then it shows a new frame and so on. I got 9.04. I often watch movies without this problem but it occours sometimes, and now is such a time. | 13:10 |
| Mjateznik | please help. | 13:10 |
| fluffman | green_3: do you need to kill a process? you can use killall instead of kill | 13:10 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, with compiz or not | 13:10 |
| Mjateznik | with | 13:10 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: not sure how to open /etc/fstab | 13:10 |
| sp4z | multiply: you need to get your hands on qtparted. nice gui and everything | 13:10 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, have you tried without | 13:11 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: I will do that know. | 13:11 |
| Mjateznik | *now | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: gedit /etc/fstab | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: its just a text file | 13:11 |
| Multiply | sp4z, is that over PXE? | 13:11 |
| sp4z | multiply: rejiggle your partitions and then install | 13:11 |
| Phxdraught | green_3: I seen the same thing changing the PID, maybe thats a safety function so you don't kill it, try rebooting | 13:11 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, there is something called fusion-icon that will allow you to turn compiz off and on quickly in such situations | 13:11 |
| Animagladius | Huhu. | 13:11 |
| veggteppe | bazhang: still getting "find and mount cd" error:S | 13:12 |
| sp4z | multiply: nah its a linux partition manager app | 13:12 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: should I use synaptic to get fusion-icon? | 13:12 |
| Multiply | How would I go about getting it on the computer, then? No CD-Rom drive, no Floppy :P | 13:12 |
| coz_ | Mjateznik, yes | 13:12 |
| bazhang | veggteppe, you have already installed unetbootin and used it to create a usb installer? | 13:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Multiply: bootabl usb stick | 13:12 |

| OttifantSir | I am trying to install Free Porn Toolbar (security-risk and not G-rated) from Fleshlight in Firefox. How do I do that? I have no option to install it through Firefox, and I don't know where to put it in ~/.mozilla. Anyone know how to install add-ons that aren't from Mozilla's site? | 13:13 |
| beckettj | exit | 13:13 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, yes | 13:13 |
| veggteppe | bazhang: aye | 13:13 |
| green_3 | Phxdraught, i found thePID and killed that .... just looking again but CPU usage hasn't dropped | 13:13 |
| sp4z | Ottifantsir: lol | 13:13 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: It seems visual effects is off actualy, but might have a second compiz... I remember editing compiz long ago | 13:13 |
| bazhang | veggteppe, it usually takes a bit longer to create one | 13:13 |
| veggteppe | bazhang: didnt for me atleast:p | 13:14 |
| mo-needs-help | can anyone help solving this problem? Samsung N270BN (netbook n130), ubuntu netbook remix on an 1gb usb stick, selecting "Try" or "Install" on boot results in a black screen :( | 13:14 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: if you compare the fstab and lshw outputs it looks like it should be ok | 13:14 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: mines near identical and works fine | 13:14 |
| bazhang | veggteppe, I would suggest that you did not use it properly then; ie pointed at the wrong place to install the iso | 13:14 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: hmmm doesnt even open odd not reading mpo3 | 13:15 |
| me`n`u | hii | 13:15 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: if you put a data CD in the drive and run: sudo mount /dev/sdc0 does it mount? | 13:15 |
| fluffman | mo-needs-help: down at the bottom, before you boot, you should see some options. Press f4, and you should have the option to boot in safe graphics mode. | 13:15 |
| sp4z | multiply: indeed. sounds like you are out of options :S can't you stick the hdd into another computer and copy it that way? | 13:15 |
| Phxdraught | green_3: yea, about all you can do is restart | 13:15 |
| Amigadude | is there a nice way to add screenmodes? | 13:15 |
| veggteppe | bazhang: i'm just confused over that i did not have a issue when booting on a usb(using same technique) live cd. But having issues when its a alternative install cd | 13:15 |

| green_3 | Phx makes no difference, sorry did not reply o that suggestion b4 as its a tad hectic chasing it :) | 13:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | it must be easy but i'm scared that it fucked up the grub | 13:16 |
| Amigadude | only got 640x480 & 800x600 need 1360x768 | 13:16 |

| dinobot_ | 2 questions.... First where is the sessions item? Second how do I restore the gnome panels from the command line? | 13:16 |
| bazhang | damo, this is not crossover support; you should check their support forums | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: sudo eject /dev/scd0 | 13:16 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: ok | 13:16 |
| damo | i cnt find it man i been looking ages so come to ask for help | 13:16 |
| epinky | jacquesdupontd: disconnecting your HD? | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: does that not fly | 13:16 |
| sp4z | bazhang: /thumbsup | 13:16 |
| bazhang | !resetpanels | dinobot_ | 13:16 |
| ubottu | dinobot_: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 13:16 |
| damo | no need be bitchey is there | 13:16 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: fusion-icon installed. choosed metacity instead of compiz. | 13:17 |
| jacquesdupontd | epinky, nope i'm on a laptop | 13:17 |

| stefano | hi all | 13:17 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: unable to find device | 13:17 |
| stefano | i've a question about nautilus | 13:17 |
| sp4z | damo: have you thought about using another app? | 13:17 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: problems still there. | 13:17 |
| Phxdraught | green_3: maybe a memory leak not giving up memory back to the OS. Maybe killing other processes might help? | 13:18 |
| stefano | someone knows how to set nautilus to open folders in new TAB and not in new WINDOWS? | 13:18 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, which video card, and which driver, how was the driver installed | 13:18 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: or /dev/scd0 | 13:18 |
| epinky | jacquesdupontd: disabling your HD? | 13:18 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: note that I played the very same videofile just before my laptopbattery died and it worked perfectly fine then. I have since restarted computer. | 13:18 |
| green_3 | Phxdraught, ty for suggestions will reboot again .... its weird tho | 13:18 |
| Yanick_ | hi, has anyone experienced the problem where, in music player, cannot seek to a duration with the slider control? | 13:18 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: youou may want to read through: dmesg | less to see if the drive gets detected ok | 13:18 |
| Gyro54 | Hi! Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this please - sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.8/Volume1/MediaShare /mnt/musicfiles | 13:18 |
| momoru | Is there a way to make Ubuntu automatically mount CDs to cdrom0 or cdrom1 instead to a directory named after the disc's label? | 13:18 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: whats the command to check video card? | 13:19 |
| momoru | Gyro54, probably the space between smbfs and // | 13:19 |
| Phxdraught | green_3: sometimes turning completely off then restart helps | 13:19 |
| momoru | Gyro54, should probably be smbfs// | 13:19 |
| Gyro54 | Thanks | 13:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Gyro54: you forgot the credentials | 13:19 |
| regint | how do I open X port(6000) . | 13:19 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: i dropped in xp cd and it mounts it | 13:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Gyro54: sudo mount -t smbfs //servername/sharename /mountdirectory -o username=mywindowsusername,password=mywindowspassword | 13:20 |
| Tartaros | When I see a package in Synaptic, how do I read it's changelog? | 13:20 |
| momoru | Gyro54, I've never mounted a smbfs like that so I'm just guessing. | 13:20 |
| momoru | lol | 13:20 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, I would first check hardware drivers in system -- administration | 13:20 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: why didnt it not mount an mp3 cd | 13:20 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: in hardware drivers it says only properterian hardware driver is my wireless card | 13:20 |
| momoru | I should probably shut my mouth >< | 13:20 |
| geomi | ActionParsnip: shouldn't it be -t cifs? | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | !info samba-doc | 13:20 |
| ubottu | samba-doc (source: samba): Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5 (karmic), package size 7813 kB, installed size 16080 kB | 13:20 |
| bibinou | anyone knows how to read a bootchart chart ? | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | -t cifs is newer and should proberlybe tried first. | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | geomi: should be smbfs if its a samba mount | 13:21 |
| TheSeeker1 | indus: if you are still in the room. I tried totem-gstreamer to play apple trailers and I get a message that says No package with the requested plugins found. The requested plugins are text/html decoder. | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | geomi: i think cifs is the newer way as Dr_Willis says | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | but i forget how cifs differes from smbfs :) | 13:21 |
| === adrian_ is now known as blackxored | ||
| Dr_Willis | I think for a linux to linux box.. cifs will work best. | 13:21 |
| dinobot_ | bazhang: Thanks | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: can it read audio CDs/ | 13:21 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: i dropped another mp3 cd doesnt work | 13:22 |
| geomi | in my /etc/fstab i mount these things as "cifs" and it causes fewer problems | 13:22 |
| Gyro54 | The space did not help but I will keep trying The HP site had it as I originally tried and it doesn't work | 13:22 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: what about a normal audio cd, not mp3 | 13:22 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: i played cda last night | 13:22 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: hmm, ok | 13:22 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: not sure then, the data connection is thereas cda works ok | 13:22 |
| momoru | Is there a way to change Ubuntu's cdrom automount behavior? | 13:23 |
| Yanick_ | anyone experiencing a still seekbar in rythmbox/banshee while playing mp3 files? how to fix this? | 13:23 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: testing cda now | 13:23 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: I remember I had some video/graphic problem when my laptop was new about a year ago - but problem was solved, dont remember how tough.. | 13:23 |
| jacquesdupontd | sorry i was on the phone | 13:23 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: For Linux to Linux, isn't NFS best? I have tried SAMBA/CIFS and NFS, and I find that NFS is easier to set up, faster, and more easily recognized on the network than SMB/CIFS. | 13:24 |
| xand_ | can anyone please help me to record an udf iso ? | 13:24 |
| ActionParsnip | OttifantSir: best is an opinion | 13:24 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: launches audio disc prg when it mounts it | 13:24 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: audio comes out? | 13:24 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: so audio fine but not mp3 | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: for using 'samba' to do linux to linux :) use cifs. | 13:24 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: so data disks are bad, audio is ok | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: ive been trying nfs here and samba both. NFS seems faster by a lot.. but seems quirky in 9.10 for some reason | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: theres also sshfs :) for quick shareing | 13:25 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: data fine, cda fine, doesnt recognize mp3 | 13:25 |
| TheSeeker1 | hello all! I am having problems playing Apple Quicktime files in ubuntu 9.04. I have the restricted extras and w32codecs along with libdvdcss2 installed. I have tried totem-gstreamer, xine, vlc and mplayer with no luck. Anyone have any suggestions? I will add that gstreamer asks for a plugin for text to html. | 13:25 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: then you may need mp3 codecs | 13:25 |
| ActionParsnip | !codec | 13:25 |
| ubottu | 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 | 13:25 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: I isntalled NFS on my laptop two days ago, with 9.10, and it is just as easy as in 8.04 - 9.04. | 13:25 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: do i dl or? | 13:25 |
| jan__ | Phxdraught, prev did several restarts ... no success ... this time fine so maybe some of the kills of the parent process, or, as i closed i stop a bunch of startup daemons which must have accumulated fom two up grades 8.04>8.10 and 8.10>9.04 | 13:26 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: you will need to download MP3 codecs to play MP3 | 13:26 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: ok working on it thxs | 13:26 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, hi man how can i install xubuntu on a flash disk without touching grub from my actual ubuntu and the .iso of the archive ? | 13:26 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: so how do I check my videocard? | 13:26 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, lspci in terminal | 13:26 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, Cause i only see a .exe when i mount it but no linux executable | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: i dident say it was hard. i just find it acting odd.. somthing will copy over and the progress bar will jump from 0 to 40% instantly.. then copy the rest of the way.. then at 99% it pauses for several seconds.. Not sure whats going on. | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: could be some cacheing going on i guess | 13:27 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/create-a-xubuntu-9-10-flash-drive-using-windows/ | 13:27 |
| jan__ | Phxdraught, thanks for reponding | 13:27 |
| Gyro54 | I had the Mediavault setup with NFS on 8.04 and have just upgraded and can't seem to get it to work. | 13:27 |
| Mjateznik | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) | 13:27 |
| Mjateznik | 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) | 13:27 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, that's exactly what i don't need, i told you i'm on linux already and i think we only can do it from windows that's my question | 13:28 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: Perhaps. I've not encountere any new oddities with NFS in 9.10. Apart from being on a wireless, it's slower than wired of course. | 13:28 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, this is karmic or jaunty | 13:28 |
| Phxdraught | jan__: sound good to me | 13:28 |
| Mjateznik | 9.04 so that karmic aint it? | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: not sure, i always use my GFs lappy to do it | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: you could use unetbootin or other ways to make a frugal/live cd type install to a flash drive also. | 13:28 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: should I simply try to upgrade to 9.10 and hope for the best? | 13:28 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, that is jaunty; some intel cards were affected in jaunty | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: but if you can get it on there it can have its own boot loader so will not touch your current grub | 13:28 |
| TheSeeker1 | ubottu: thanks for the websites but those really didn't answer my question. I'm at a loss right now. | 13:28 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: you can dd the netbook remix img to the usb | 13:29 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, I would first try a live cd | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | You can set up grub2 on a flash drive and boot iso files also. :) | 13:29 |
| bazhang | TheSeeker1, what was the issue | 13:29 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: As I said, I remember a problem 1 year ago when i ran 8,04 but it was fixed with 8.10 or earlier. | 13:29 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, the thing is i already got a live cd in fact usb live disk working perfectly but the boot is really too slow i would like to be as fast as it can be when it's really installed and then will try to make it bootable with an interface to make it an installer disk too | 13:30 |
| blackswan | okay, found my answer; no, you have to enable it by turning on /desktop/gnome/remote_access/require_encryption | 13:30 |
| jazzta | bonjour | 13:30 |
| TheSeeker1 | bazhang: I can't seem to get Quicktime files to play in 9.04. I have tried totem, xine, mplayer, vlc and nothing seems to work. I did get an request through gstreamer for a text/html encoder but it seems to be installed. | 13:30 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, why netbook remix cause its all already extracted ? | 13:30 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, I am not certain that your card is affected by this regression | 13:30 |
| bazhang | TheSeeker1, the video trailers from apple's website? | 13:30 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: its an img file, not an iso | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: i never bother doing a 'full' type install to a flash drive. I do belive the alternative installer cd lets you tell it where to install grub. Of course i know enough grub-fu to repair my bootloader if i accidently install over my desktops mbr and not the flash drives mbr by mistake :) | 13:31 |
| TheSeeker1 | bazhang: yes. There is also audio from the following site that I can't get to play either http://secure.stretchinternet.com/archive.php?user=ottawa&event_id=63248 | 13:32 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: what if i can play mp3 in a folder on hard drive and not mp3 cd | 13:32 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: ok thanks for your help, I'm dl:ing a cd image of 9.10 and will try that out. The odd thing is that 19/20 times video works perfect... | 13:32 |
| * ActionParsnip is whitebelt grub-fu | 13:32 | |
| Dr_Willis | 'your grub fu is strong grashopper! now try Grub-Fu2!' | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: not sure, maybe the mp3cd is burned wierd. Its not something ive used | 13:32 |
| bazhang | TheSeeker1, that is a common issue; Apple made it such that it is harder to play trailers there for certain systems (read linux); iirc wget the file and it plays fine | 13:32 |
| momoru | Is there a way to change Ubuntu's behavior when automounting a CD? | 13:32 |
| lolmaus | Hi! How do i determine fastest repositories and make my Ubuntu Server use them? | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | I wonder what a mp3-cd even is...... | 13:33 |
| gdv | i dont have a known_hosts file. i only use dsa keys. is that normal? | 13:33 |
| TheSeeker1 | bazhang: how do I do that? | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | lolmaus: system -> admin -> software sources I think has a menu item to scan/find the fasterest.. or synaptic does.. | 13:33 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: I just noticed its a .mkv file and that avi plays without problem but mkv sometimes play without problem... | 13:33 |
| bazhang | TheSeeker1, let me look for a link on the forums about that | 13:33 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: ok im playing mp3 from a folder.. i have 2 prgs for audio i tried 2 mp3 cds | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Dr_Willis: i tink its some special crap for car audio MP3 players.... just my guess | 13:33 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, so some play ok? | 13:34 |
| TheSeeker1 | bazhang: thank you. I appreciate it. | 13:34 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: both cds not mounted | 13:34 |
| Gyro54 | This is what I get from NFS - sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.8:/shares/Volume1/MediaShare/ mnt/musicfiles | 13:34 |
| Gyro54 | mount.nfs: unrecognized mount point mnt/musicfiles | 13:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. where did i find that 'scan for fastest mirror' thing.. | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | eddym: can you select open disk in VLC? | 13:34 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: yes avi files play well, I can check more fileformats, one sec. | 13:34 |
| bazhang | Dr_Willis, softwares sources ? | 13:34 |
| lolmaus | Dr_Willis, no GUI | 13:34 |
| Wizzup | how could I install extra man pages for ubuntu? man pages like pthread_mutex_init are missing | 13:34 |
| Wizzup | So the more developer oriented ones | 13:34 |
| Wizzup | Is there a specific package? | 13:35 |
| Dr_Willis | lolmaus: i think the old tool thats in debian is not in ubuntu for that.. it used tobe called mirror-select or somthing | 13:35 |
| lolmaus | Dr_Willis, i'm on server | 13:35 |
| Dr_Willis | !find mirrorselect | 13:35 |
| ubottu | Package/file mirrorselect does not exist in karmic | 13:35 |
| * Dr_Willis notices people dont mention these imporantant tidbits near enough... | 13:36 | |
| blinkiz | Hi there people! I have a Intel latest graphics card on my laptop. To my laptop, I always have an external monitor connected and the build in screen (in the laptop) turned of. When the power goes away here, the X gui is stuck on the external display. Does it exist a console way to switch screen? I know how to switch within gnome (system-preferences-Display) but how to do it the console way? | 13:36 |

I can't set my screen resolution properly, and the interface in real slow. Only in the menu. The mouse moves ok, but when I click something it takes a while to load. Is this because of the stick? | 13:36 |

| ActionParsnip | MrTwane: ok whats happening? | 13:37 |
| administrator_ | Mjateznik, mkv is a container file. you can put any video type inside an mkv. | 13:37 |
| blinkiz | Never mind. I solved it. | 13:37 |

| aubre | Has there been any progress made on the issue where some people have extremely slow network performance? I just bought a brand new HP desktop with a gigabyte network card, and Win 7 doesn't have a network performance problem on it, but with Karmic desktop it is painfully slow to do most everything. I've tried disabling IPv6 and also editing the nsswitch.conf to put hosts at files dns. Still slow. | 13:38 |
| Mjateznik | bazhang: why container? How can I check the fileformat within? | 13:38 |
| mt92 | howdy.. i remember seeing a script somewhere which watched log files for failed login attempts and then modified iptables rules after a certain number of failures... does anyone know what this script/package is called?? | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Gyro54: also make sure the mount point exists | 13:38 |
| TheSeeker1 | bazhang: Thank you again. | 13:38 |
| administrator_ | Mjateznik, as mkv being a container file, it might be that you have an unsupported codec hidden inside of it. I've had them with Real Media video in them before, that was a pain to get working. | 13:38 |
| XiXaQ | Dualboot with Vista and Karmic. Has anyone tried? Heard of any problems, or should it be easy as pie? | 13:38 |
| ubuntu | hello | 13:39 |
| ActionParsnip | XiXaQ: install vista first and leave unpartitioned space for ubuntu = easy | 13:39 |
| bazhang | Mjateznik, the only thing I have ever gotten to play mkv successfully (at least certain problematic ones) is vlc | 13:39 |
| Mjateznik | administrator_: yea but I have played the same video file earlier today and other mkv file (sam source) earlier both without and with problem... | 13:39 |
| pmo | XiXaQ: i have / and karmic no problems at all | 13:39 |
| pmo | *7 | 13:39 |
| administrator_ | Mjateznik, open it with VLC, look at any errors it gives you. that's how I found out the one mkv I had had real video in it. | 13:39 |
| XiXaQ | ActionParsnip, pmo: thanks. | 13:39 |
| aubre | I have an older much slower machine that has no network speed issues at all | 13:39 |

| ActionParsnip | ubuntu: ideally its 2xRAM if you have less than 2Gb RAM, or 1xRAM if you have greater than 2gb RAM | 13:41 |
| IHS_Volunteer | If you have enough RAM, you can with without any swap at all, usually. | 13:41 |
| IHS_Volunteer | you can go* | 13:42 |

| ubuntu | ActionParsnip, i have 512mb ram, i see my ram is always free and swap is not used, so changing swap default size 500mb to 300mb will not be bad? | 13:43 |

| marcelo | the other computer inside my net connects nicely. | 13:44 |
| eurythmia | yeah. It's nice to have swap if you ever plan to hibernate, but I always just use suspend, so I'm cool with no swap :) | 13:44 |
| ubuntu | is ext4 default file type now in ubuntu 9.10? | 13:44 |
| IHS_Volunteer | I have 4GB of RAM in my main desktop. I rarely touch the swap, unless I'm running a lot of browsers that have memory leaks(firefox..) | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu: yes | 13:45 |
| bazhang | ubuntu, yep | 13:45 |
| ubuntu | in xubuntu too? | 13:45 |
| eurythmia | IHS_Volunteer, heh ... firefox was the only thing that ever made my memory usage go over 512M ;) | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu: if you use custom partitioning you can choose a different fs if you wish | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu: same | 13:45 |
| ubuntu | good good thanks | 13:45 |
| IHS_Volunteer | eurythmia, I had firefox using a little over 1GB of RAM the other day :D | 13:45 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: not sure how to do that from synp pack There is a bug in Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) that doesn't allow this double-click-to-install-missing-plugins procedure to work. If you want MP3 playback, the best thing to do is use Synaptic Package Manager to install ubuntu-restricted-extras. That will install MP3 playback, Flash, Java, and other proprietary plugins. | 13:45 |

| eurythmia | djtoast, the way you said you were doing it pretty much sounds ideal. | 13:47 |
| ubuntu | DJones, official google chrome? | 13:47 |
| IHS_Volunteer | djtoast, right click, choose compress, hit options.. sort through the available archive types. I think 7zip allows it, not sure about the others. | 13:47 |
| DJones | ubuntu: yes, the official one, not the chromium version | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | I got google chrome browser here also. | 13:48 |
| eurythmia | djtoast, of course, there's a lot more overhead than working with one big file. | 13:48 |
| djtoast | eurythmia: it would take me 2months.. | 13:48 |
| ubuntu | DJones, how? released by google for linux? link pls | 13:48 |
| eurythmia | djtoast, with the script? Write, run and forget about it until it's finished. | 13:48 |
| djtoast | eruythmia: what I dont get is its not using 100% cpu or IO.. | 13:48 |
| pmo | scary chrome seems run so much faster then firefox i would never expect that and it is still in beta pahse | 13:48 |

| mattgirv | Dr_Willis: I thought that was the Chromium version though | 13:49 |
| fede | hi | 13:49 |
| eurythmia | djtoast, well, what you can do is write a script that will spawn itself X times and compress X files at a time ... check for a copy of the zipped file before compressing the file. | 13:49 |
| pmo | IHS_Volunteer, : thnx for info | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | mattgirv: no idea.. Not sure hwo they differ., | 13:49 |
| DJones | Dr_Willis: Thats the chromium version though that you've linked to rather than the official google chrome release | 13:50 |
| IHS_Volunteer | I think Epiphany uses webkit now, too. | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | time to google then i guess. :) i rarelyuse it other then to test some sites. | 13:50 |

| vak | Q: is there any Google Wave noticator for Ubuntu? (I don't use Firefox, just Google Chrome...) | 14:02 |

| _-XPERT-_ | eurythmia: I think he wants to read them and not serve them | 14:02 |
| Guest14779 | is there any website for ubuntu where can i find this cmds ? | 14:02 |
| eurythmia | _-XPERT-_, no doubt :) | 14:02 |
| IHS_Volunteer | Guest14779, when you need something done, google the problem or ask here. It's how I've learned most of the linux/unix commands I know. | 14:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, in fact i have windows seven so i'm gonna mount it with daemontools and install it from windows but i want to be sure that it won't touch my mbr and i don't know how to do that cause i don't see where we can set that during the installation process | 14:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest14779: theres dozens of pages taht document ubuntu. | 14:02 |
| Dr_Willis | !training | Guest14779 | 14:02 |
| ubottu | Guest14779: documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com | 14:02 |
| mattgirv | Guest14779: Search for BASH commands to learn how to navigate around your system, and look at the docs for apt for the package management stuff | 14:03 |
| _-XPERT-_ | ajah: Is this you need? | 14:03 |
| eurythmia | Evdokimos, I need a little more information. USB stick, for example. When you mount it, do you safely eject the device? If not, then the kernel sometimes gets confused with the accounting. | 14:03 |
| bazhang | http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download_main.html Guest14779 this is not bad | 14:03 |
| Guest14779 | ok i'm gunna check it | 14:03 |
| pmo | google is ur best friend here and in termian u can type 'man "command" to get more help what it does' | 14:03 |
| Guest14779 | thanks you so mush guys | 14:03 |

| Guest14779 | :° | 14:03 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, i'm gonna do it from windows doesn't mind in fact but do you know how i could tell him not to touch my grub and even better to install a grub on the usb disk itself | 14:03 |
| Guest14779 | thanks again | 14:04 |
| Evdokimos | eurythmia, you have a greek name? | 14:04 |

| AdvoWork` | Hi there. Anyone ever set up dual monitors with ubuntu? ive installed the ati radeon card, plugged monitor 1 in which worked fine. plugged monitor 2 in, booted up the pc, i could see the ubuntu boot screen on both screens, but when ubuntu actually logged in, the 2nd monitor turns off. any ideas please? | 14:04 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: same thing | 14:04 |
| eurythmia | Evdokimos, not that I know of, but that doesn't mean it's not possible. | 14:04 |
| Guest14779 | any i'm gunna try it | 14:04 |
| eddym | actionparsnip: cant mount mp3 cd works fine in the car | 14:04 |
| Guest14779 | anyway* | 14:04 |
| Guest14779 | bye | 14:04 |
| mattgirv | bye | 14:04 |
| Evdokimos | eurythmia, it meens "well tunned" in greek! | 14:05 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, but more i'm thinking about it more i think that there's many things to invent with usb bootable disk | 14:05 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: i would be VERY suprised if it worked with deamontools in windows. I dont recall if the desktop cd has an option at the end to tell where to install th4e bootloader to or not. I do belive the alternative installer cd does. | 14:05 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, i'm nearly shocked that it doesn't already exist what i'm thinking about | 14:05 |
| knoxville | Can you guys recommend any FPS game like quake for ubuntu? | 14:05 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: ive just been toying with grub2 and booting iso files. from what i gather a 'full' install to a usb flash drive can wear them out. | 14:06 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, then you think installation = modifying my grub | 14:06 |
| pmo | knoxville, : have u tried quakelive? u can play free on ur browser | 14:06 |
| eurythmia | Evdokimos, pretty cool ... I thought it was just some random non-word ;) | 14:06 |
| aperson | thanks Dr_Willis | 14:06 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: you could install in virtualbox to a 4gb hard dive image file.. or have virtualbox boot the cd and the flash drive and isntallthat way | 14:06 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, i want an installation flash key with a real installation on it and a boot menu where you can either choose to run your personnal xubuntu standalone or install the native xubuntu on any computer | 14:07 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: You could even set up grub2 on the thing.. boot the iso. and then have it install itself to a 2nd partition in a 'full' type install. | 14:07 |
| tiemonster | How do you add a new panel if you've already deleted all your panels? | 14:07 |
| Evdokimos | eurythmia, I always unmount cd's usb's etc correctly | 14:07 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, do you understand my idea ? | 14:07 |
| eddym | hi guys did anyone have an issue where you can mount a cda, data cd but not mp3 cd in ubuntu 9.10 | 14:07 |
| `Robin` | hi | 14:07 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: most people use the usb-creator tool and the persistant save file feature for that. I hear it works muych better in 9.10 now then it did in 9.04 | 14:08 |
| durt | eddym, an mp3 cd is a data cd | 14:08 |
| Kan3_ | Hello is there any guide on how to install ntrconnect on ubuntu? | 14:08 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, cause the problem of create a usb bootable disk live is that even if it's persistant it works perfectly like mine saving everything but booting is as slow as trying ubuntu from a live cd, it's not booting like it would boot if it was installed on a computer | 14:08 |
| `Robin` | my ubunu installation crashed... GRUB says OUT OF DISK.... (not OUT OF DISK SPACE) | 14:08 |
| eddym | durt:for some reason drive doesnt want to mount mp3 cd i have codec bcuz i can play mp3 in a fldr | 14:08 |
| eurythmia | Evdokimos, there's a difference between unmounting and ejecting .... ejecting tells the kernel that it's done with the device, and it can clear everything that it allocated for the device ... for example, sometimes if you plug in a usb device and get it as device sdf then unplug it and re-plug it, you'll get device sdg ... or sometimes it won't eve show up at all ... | 14:09 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: i think you will find the 'full install to flash drive' will not be that much faster. | 14:09 |
| durt | eddym, wha? | 14:09 |
| eddym | durt: what do you mean i can play audio on a c drive it i mean mp3 | 14:09 |
| thrope | connecting in using NX I can't do any administrative tasks - I've had this before but I've forgotten the magic incantation to make it work - any ideas? | 14:09 |
| eurythmia | eddym, CDs are usually filesystem iso9660 | 14:09 |
| zaoul | Do I need a 64 bit version to run VT? | 14:09 |
| `Robin` | my ubunu installation crashed... GRUB says OUT OF DISK.... (not OUT OF DISK SPACE) <<<<<<<<<<<<< cn anyone help me plz? :( | 14:10 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, i'm always answering you before you talk me about something, just remember one thing if you see me agin, when i come on the channel to ask something you can be sure i know the subject perfectly and i've googled a lot before and i come to see the biggest guys that could be 1 or 2 to follow my idea or to help me | 14:10 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: and a 'full' install may not work as good on a varity of hardware.. for example if you install the nvidia drivers for box X. and box Z needs the OLDER nvidia drivers.. well you will have issues. | 14:10 |
| eddym | the problem is i cant mount mp3 cds but i can play mp3 audio on c drive | 14:10 |
| Kan3_ | thrope is there any other way to connect? | 14:10 |
| Kan3_ | i am tired from nx | 14:10 |
| Kan3_ | errors, timeouts | 14:11 |
| eurythmia | brb | 14:11 |
| Evdokimos | eurythmia, it's when it dosen't show up at all, that's the problem! | 14:11 |
| thrope | Kan3_: not graphically | 14:11 |
| `Robin` | !!!!!!!!!!!! | 14:11 |
| Dr_Willis | jacquesdupontd: ive seen others discuss the topic in here as well.. ive been working on several threads/forums getting grub2 multi iso boot flash drives going. :) | 14:11 |
| thrope | Kan3_: i know there is a simple command line thing to sort it out i just cant remember | 14:11 |
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, first you should see how fastest it is even when it's live and usb2.0 when it booted it's really faster than the ubuntu on the harddisk 5400 prm | 14:11 |
| Kan3_ | I've been reading about ntrconnect | 14:11 |
| thrope | Kan3_: and google foo is failing me | 14:11 |

| === mike_ is now known as Guest37001 | ||
| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, that's call flash memory and it does change all, so it should be at least as fast to boot but we can understand that it's not cause how do you want that an installation complete is taking many gigs and the cd is only 700 megs, it's only because everytime it's booting it's extracting files, do you understand ? | 14:12 |
| === Guest37001 is now known as mickster04 | ||

| jacquesdupontd | Dr_Willis, but in fact hrm that's kinda bad cause it will install it for my computer and if i run it on a intel computer for example as i have an amd it won't play his role of real live cd going on every computer, so i have to find a way to have the live cd extracted completely but with the same checks for the system hardwares on boot, would be at least faster | 14:15 |

| BluesKaj | parapan, here's a tutorial , how to set it up infstab to automount, http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=22093 | 14:23 |
| jacquesdupontd | Tartaros, you're both totally wrong asking me simple thing like i'm a newbie, i'm installing a flash usb drive with usb-disk-creator and you can make it persistant (means to be able to save configuration and software isntallation after reboot on the live ubuntu key) but the thing is that it puts all in a folder called "install" and we can't touch "documents" "downloads" and other directories*ù== | 14:23 |
| ActionParsnip | rictec: if all you want to remove is one | 14:23 |
| rictec | ActionParsnip, its that logo on the center of the screen with a black background thats ugly | 14:23 |
| eddym | zaoul:not sure how to do the first part | 14:23 |
| shled | I have trouble getting bluetooth to work. dmesg shows bluetooth device, but hcitool dev does not. Could anybody please help me? | 14:23 |
| jacquesdupontd | Tartaros, i'm then thinking that with a /home partition it would take it directly | 14:23 |
| ubuntunewbie | I plan to upgrade to 9.10 but I had a VirtualBox guest os window xp installed.I wanted to backup or transfer to my external hard disk , is it possible to do that ? | 14:24 |
| ubuntunewbie | thanks you | 14:24 |
| PTR- | Any tip how to figure out what compile options was used for the specific PHP version running on a U 8.04LTS Server, as phpinfo() doesn't show them ? | 14:24 |
| mickster04 | zaoul, what am i looking for? i am in daemon.cfg? | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | rictec: the shutdown splash? | 14:24 |
| mattgirv | jacquesdupontd: Maybe if you wanted a specific answer, you should ask a specific question in the first place otherwise yeah... you are going to get an answer as if you are a newbie | 14:24 |
| IHS_Volunteer | ubuntunewbie, if you can access USB devices from the VM, yes. | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | rictec: i think you mean that. i always uninstall the stupid splash stuff, its completely worthless imho | 14:24 |
| sipior | rob_p: there's a "--shell" option to adduser which will do what you want. | 14:24 |
| zaoul | mickster04: default-sample-channels | 14:24 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntunewbie: you can backup your vm files/directories yes.. and no i dont r4mber where they are at. :) | 14:24 |
| flashsave | bazhang: any suggestiosn? | 14:25 |
| jacquesdupontd | Tartaros, i'm really greatfull that you try to help me but we are not talking about helping a newbie connecting on this channel for the first time, it's been 6 years that i'm here and i know how to install ubuntu but thank you. | 14:25 |
| === root is now known as Guest7997 | ||
| IHS_Volunteer | ubuntunewbie, if you have a backup utility such as Acronis, you could use that, or you could use dd, but dd is -very- slow. | 14:25 |
| Tartaros | jacquesdupontd: so be it | 14:25 |
| rictec | ActionParsnip, the brown with that light effect is nice but before that | 14:25 |
| mickster04 | zaoul, so changed that to six and default-channel-map = front-left,front-right,rear-left,rear-right,centre,bass | 14:25 |
| mr-dedup | newbie: you should be able to backup the entire xp virtual machine's vmdk and vmx config file | 14:25 |
| bazhang | flashsave, to download or to play the swf or both | 14:25 |
| rob_p | sipior: I know. I don't want to have to specify it at user creation. I want to change the default that gets assigned when not specifying the shell. | 14:25 |
| eddym | zaoul:not sure how to unmount it | 14:25 |
| flashsave | bazhang: to download only | 14:25 |
| ActionParsnip | rictec: not sure then, i remove all splashes | 14:25 |
| bazhang | flashsave, let me check | 14:25 |
| mr-dedup | newbie then you can copy it back and launch it | 14:25 |
| sipior | rob_p: then modify /etc/adduser.conf | 14:26 |
| IdleOne | ActionParsnip: think he means the Ubuntu " spot light " at bootup | 14:26 |
| zaoul | eddym: umount /dev/cdrom0 | 14:26 |
| jacquesdupontd | mattgirv, maybe people should follow the help so i wouldn't have to explain everything again and again and at the end waiting for answers seeing that i know more and that i found the clue, but it's not your fault at all i'm gonna try by myself with my idea | 14:26 |
| mr-dedup | newbie: you could also image the xp guest with a product like ultrabac.com | 14:26 |
| rictec | ActionParsnip, thank i will look for the fle and make it all back that will do it | 14:26 |

| ActionParsnip | Floops[w]1: ease up on the enter dude, can you use pastebin to give the output of: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 14:31 |

| parapan | flashsave > I got the meaning now; Instead VNC I am using freeNX ....it's givinfg me the same GUI with a better security ;) | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Floops[w]1: we need the url of the paste | 14:32 |
| bazhang | flashsave, if you can watch it, you can get it from your cache | 14:32 |
| zaoul | so ungrateful | 14:32 |
| Tartaros | tom__: what do you mean by "tapping areas"? My touchpad works like it ever has :) | 14:32 |
| Floops[w]1 | ActionParsnip, which url are you talking about | 14:32 |
| flashsave | bazhang: i don't want propietary adobe flash to view it; there must be another option to get the flv | 14:32 |
| ward- | how do i setup a secondary screen without having all my windows moved to it...? | 14:32 |
| BluesKaj | parapan, is that windows or linux partition ? | 14:32 |

| jacquesdupontd | Tartaros, you see that's exactly what i'm explaining, it makes 11 years that i'm on irc all the day and you're thinking you can explain me slowly that maybe irc is not what i think ? | 14:33 |
| zaoul | ward-: depends on the graphics card, but typically sounds like a clone setup and you would be dealing with xorg.conf | 14:33 |
| bazhang | mr-dedup, ultimate? | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Floops[w]1: when you use the pastebin, the page changes and you get a url in the top bar, we need that address | 14:33 |

| Tartaros | ubuntuN00b: what are you trying to do? ...the message states pretty clearly what's going on, you probably need to register said certitiface with the server | 14:40 |
| carlosrvm | ok | 14:40 |
| Floops[w] | ActionParsnip, i didn't try that | 14:40 |
| jacquesdupontd | mattgirv, we'll see us another day and you'll see you're wrong on me but for now please i don't want to hurt you so i answer you and i can't talk now i have work | 14:40 |
| jacquesdupontd | mattgirv, sorrry again | 14:40 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: clarify what a mp3 cd actually is? its just a data cd with foo.mp3 files on it ? if you view it from windows/ | 14:40 |
| tom__ | Tartaros: any idea on how I might solve this middle-mouse issue? there are no options for it in the touchpanel configuration... at laest I can say that... | 14:40 |
| Floops[w] | i going see what happens now | 14:40 |
| PTR- | Any tip how to figure out what compile options was used for the specific PHP version running on a U 8.04LTS Server, as phpinfo() doesn't show them ? | 14:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Floops[w]: its a bit agressive but should install libc6, you can then install the rest | 14:40 |
| Tartaros | tom__: none sorry :| | 14:40 |
| flashsave | anyone know how to download a flv from a swf file (which app in ubuntu to use)? (not view, download) | 14:40 |

| vignesh | Hey | 14:42 |
| Dr_Willis | cesco: lots of bad ones and nightmares from years and years ago count? :) | 14:42 |
| rictec | carlosrvm, boot with a live cd and check with gparted that the 7 its still there | 14:42 |
| carlosrvm | found this solution on some forum: | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip | flashsave: ffmpeg -i inputname.flv outputname.swf | 14:42 |
| cesco | yes, that would do! | 14:43 |
| tom__ | mattgirv: in jaunty the middle mouse button used to be a tapping area in the upper right vornder of my touchpad... well, what can I say.. its gone now in Karmic.. | 14:43 |
| tom__ | *corner | 14:43 |
| vignesh | I have karmic running and have an iphone. I have installed gtkpod and ifuse. But still the iphone only shows me the photos taken, not the music | 14:43 |
| carlosrvm | Step 1 - Install os-prober package | 14:43 |
| carlosrvm | Step 2 - cd /etc/grub.d | 14:43 |
| carlosrvm | Step 3 - sudo gedit 30_otheros | 14:43 |
| carlosrvm | Step 4 - search and replace $root with ${root} | 14:43 |
| carlosrvm | Step 5 - Save 30_otheros | 14:43 |
| FloodBot2 | carlosrvm: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:43 |
| carlosrvm | Step 6 - sudo update-grub2 | 14:43 |
| Dr_Willis | cesco: i dont even recall teh software i used. :) actually it was proberly tar. :) | 14:43 |
| vignesh | how do I copy my music from the iphone | 14:43 |
| flashsave | ActionParsnip: the other way around (swf --> flv) (the swf is only 400 kb, the video should be 100 mb) | 14:43 |
| h4f | marsupila: mount /dev/partition /media/destination | 14:43 |
| tom__ | mattgirv: any idea on how to restore it? | 14:43 |
| Dr_Willis | carlosrvm: seems rather straight forward to me... | 14:43 |
| carlosrvm | but when i get | 14:43 |
| mattgirv | tom__: Yep, is tap to click enabled though? | 14:43 |
| jacquesdupontd | mattgirv, btw i have a trick if people talk about usb-disk-creator and karmic, cause it's not working at all, tell them no need to try more they have to remove purge it and then install it from internet | 14:43 |
| eddym | Dr_Willis: that is correct just a cd burned in windows multiple mp3 folder | 14:43 |
| carlosrvm | to gedit 30_otheros | 14:43 |
| rictec | carlosrvm, gparted is on system->administration | 14:44 |
| carlosrvm | the file has no text at all | 14:44 |
| ActionParsnip | flashsave: just switch it round then | 14:44 |
| jacquesdupontd | mattgirv, then it works perfectly | 14:44 |
| mattgirv | jacquesdupontd: Cheers, I'll try and remember that | 14:44 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: did you use the 'drag and drop to the cd and select burn..' feature of windows? or did you use a actual cd burner tool like nero? | 14:44 |
| jacquesdupontd | mattgirv, thx | 14:44 |

| eddym | Dr_Willis: i believe i used nero | 14:45 |
| carlosrvm | cant find gparted :-/ | 14:45 |
| tom__ | mattgirv: yepp that's right... but the only thing that is working now is the right mouse button in the lower right corner.. I don#t actually need that one.. this is someting I have a button for... much more important is the MMB in the upper right... | 14:45 |
| Mikey^ | can some one help me with my iphone and ubuntu | 14:45 |
| rictec | carlosrvm, boot from a live cd | 14:45 |
| cesco | Dr_Willis: my setup is: DAT72 USB drive. Using tar -czvvf /dev/nst0 source_dir/. Works with a single file or small directory. With larger dirs the drive starts doing lots of noise and gets slower. | 14:45 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: You sure? ive had VERY weird things happen with the windows drag/drop/burn - (for one user.. he frogot to actually BURN the cd_ so his data cd was blank.. excvept on the windows box because it showed "to be burnt to cd' :) | 14:45 |
| AdvoWork | Hi there, anyone got any experience setting up dual monitors in ubuntu, ive got a radeon ati graphics card.. but am getting nowhere | 14:46 |
| mozmck | when customizing a livecd based on the LiveCDCustomization doc on help.ubuntu, can I just install a new kernel from a .deb file? | 14:46 |
| mattgirv | tom__: Is xserver-xorg-input-synaptics installed? | 14:46 |
| rictec | go to system administrator its the partition manager on ubuntu | 14:46 |
| Dr_Willis | cesco: last i used one was going on 10+ yrs ago.. So ive no idea to what even look for. | 14:46 |
| eddym | Dr_Willis: i have several mp3 cds they dont work let me double chec | 14:46 |
| slartibartfast | AdvoWork: whats the problem ? | 14:47 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: you could pop them in and check 'dmesg' to see what it says about the disk also | 14:47 |
| ActionParsnip | AdvoWork: run: sudo lshw -C display it will define the chip, you can then websearch that string | 14:47 |
| cesco | Dr_willis: ok. Thanks... | 14:47 |
| flashsave | ActionParsnip: does ffmpeg download the flv from the internet (if swf points to it)? | 14:47 |
| tom__ | mattgirv: yupp it is... | 14:47 |
| exqqq | somebody knows if it is possible to boot an optical drive from a lsi sata raid card ? | 14:47 |
| carlosrvm | rictec, the partition manager i find is palimpsest disk utility | 14:47 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: or it could be they are 'udf' filesystem not iso9660 | 14:47 |
| eddym | Dr_Willis: in virtualbox i can play them in xp | 14:47 |
| rictec | carlosrvm, no point saving grub if 7 is not there | 14:47 |
| carlosrvm | it recognizes 7 | 14:47 |
| mattgirv | tom__: Right, I'm looking at the bugtracker and there are a few that say the synaptics driver is in regression with a few problems with the middle mouse emulation , | 14:47 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: try some live linux cd/iso files ion your virtualbox setup - see if any other disrtos can access them | 14:48 |
| mattgirv | tom__: So you may well be screwed until a patch is pushed through.. | 14:48 |
| ActionParsnip | flashsave: no,you have to download the file first | 14:48 |
| rictec | carlosrvm, if it does then opens a terminal and recreat the grub | 14:48 |
| Guest46202 | hi there i installed my ubuntu system inside my windows operator but when i shutdown my pc and run it again the ubuntu raise an error that said there is a file missed | 14:48 |
| carlosrvm | :S ? | 14:49 |
| flashsave | ActionParsnip: that is my problem, i can't find the flv file that swf should point to? | 14:49 |
| carlosrvm | how do i do that? | 14:49 |
| eddym | Dr_willis: not sure how to do that i dont have to many linux cds except ubuntu 9.4... but i can try burning a mp3 cd in linux and see whats up | 14:49 |
| rictec | carlosrvm, a sudo grub will get you inside the grub | 14:49 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: tiny core linux iso - is 10mb :) | 14:49 |
| tom__ | mattgirv: thx... hmm. still this aint no good ^^ kk... is there some kind of workaround? to "simulate" a MMB click? because in some situations MMB is rather useful | 14:49 |
| carlosrvm | ok im doing that | 14:49 |
| rictec | carlosrvm, then do search for menu.lst | 14:49 |
| tom__ | mattgirv: btw: do you have the URl to that bug-report? | 14:50 |
| eddym | dr_willis: not sure what you want me to do with tiny core :-/ | 14:50 |
| zepolen | is it possible for nautilus to always execute a bash script when clicking it rather than asking me what i want to do? | 14:50 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: its a 'data' cd :) not really a mp3-cd :) but if i had one here.. perhaps i could tell if its oddly burnt/formated.. but i cant :) | 14:50 |
| tom__ | *URL because I didn#t find anything... | 14:50 |
| tom__ | mattgirv: | 14:50 |
| carlosrvm | its says sudo grub command not found | 14:50 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: boot tiny core in your virtualbox sessiion instead of XP. and see if it can mount the cd. | 14:50 |

| flashsave | ActionParsnip: i don't think you understand me; the swf is only 300 kb, the video is 100 mb (flv), i need to download the flv but i can't find the url, it should be embedded inside the swf file, but its binary, not text | 14:51 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: you have just rried mounting the cd by hand with 'sudo mount /dev/cdrom0 /mnt -t iso9660' or similer ? | 14:51 |
| tom__ | ahh cool.. that's exactly my problem.. thx mattgirv | 14:51 |

| IHS_Volunteer | hostname to SSH to it* | 15:08 |
| ubuntunewbie | I would like to know whether it's possible to transfer the current guest os window xp at home/user/VirtualBox/HardDisks/window xp to my external hard disk ? and snapshot too ? | 15:08 |

| rictec | racerx, if you encryted your home then you must have a backup of it so go and upgrade | 15:09 |
| mattgirv | brontos: And you use Compiz too right? | 15:09 |

| racerx | rictec; I have only one disk on my laptop. | 15:11 |
| rictec | racerx, i never do that since 7.10 i think | 15:11 |

| llutz | bert_: 1.97 = grub2 | 15:11 |
| Pici | bert_: Because grub1 is no longer maintained upstream. | 15:11 |
| rictec | racerx, is /home on another partition? | 15:11 |
| bert_ | okay | 15:11 |
| Dr_Willis | IHS_Volunteer: ive cheated and used 'findsmb' and 'smbtree' to scan the network and get machine name/ip's :) | 15:11 |
| bert_ | thx | 15:11 |
| brontos | mattgirv, hmmm ok | 15:11 |

| xpo0f | wicd ? | 15:13 |
| lostapplet | nope, it doesn't | 15:13 |
| rictec | racerx, save that you really need from /home and burn it down lol | 15:13 |
| mattgirv | brontos: Otherwise if you don't want to wait till then, have a play with the modules you have configured for x.org and also the Compiz plugins , perhaps its just one of them causing the crash (unticking modules within the control centre) | 15:13 |
| eddym | dr_willis: i am able to mount the iso image fine in virtual xp | 15:13 |

| rictec | racerx, i thin it will | 15:14 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: Huh? | 15:14 |
| brontos | mattgirv, ok. I am going the log/messages now too. This also happened with my 9.04 install quite irritating. | 15:14 |

| eddym | dr_willis: didnt you say to mount the tiny iso earlier | 15:14 |
| Dr_Willis | eddym: i was wanting to test by booting a linux in virtualbox, and see if that linux can mount the cd. :) (if i rember the problem correctly) | 15:14 |
| ahz | I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 clean on a new HP laptop, but there is no sound. (I checked mute/volume!) | 15:15 |
| rictec | racerx, i dont really know why the home is encrypted but if files are important you have a backup right? | 15:15 |

| tbird222 | Robin: Is your /home folder in its own partition? | 15:32 |
| knoxville | How to fix this: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 15:32 |
| damo | any help would be awsome | 15:33 |
| dhbarnett | damo: how did you try to install it? | 15:33 |

| damo | kk ty ill try | 15:33 |
| knoxville | Thanks, works now. | 15:34 |
| dhbarnett | damo you can right click on it. Choose properties. Go to the permissions tab and click "Allow executing file as program" | 15:34 |
| IHS_Volunteer | you -might- be able to set it as executable through the GUI, too. you'd need to right click--> properties---> permissions. | 15:34 |
| hassanakevazir | backgen, then you need to restart to windows and run the windows check disk utility on it first. gparted can't resize ntfs partitions that have errors | 15:34 |

| amerinese | So I guess there's no /opt directory in Ubuntu? What's a good place to place programs/libraries that originally want to install to /opt? | 16:02 |

| Halitech | damo, ok, then do tar x cross and press the tab key | 16:03 |
| TuTUXG | Davneg, no... i guess that server is down | 16:03 |

| ben_ | hi there. new laptop with karmic64 - asus k40in, core2duo, 4gb. several questions: laptopmode - i've read that there's an issue with the load cycles. my drive reports 1145 cycles after 4 days of uptime. is this a lot? how do I reduce it? | 16:03 |
| ActionParsnip | BluesKaj: makes dns resolves take 0ms instead of 30ms | 16:03 |

| Davneg | TuTUXG: :P | 16:03 |
| damo | yes | 16:03 |
| firdau5 | just wonder, how to configure the speed? | 16:03 |

| MaryMaus | Hi there, does anybody knows how I can get the username from the UID in c++? I've been looking in the internet, but coud not find anything | 16:15 |
| DexterF | has Canonical uttered a word on the 9.10 upgrade issues so far? | 16:15 |
| Pici | MaryMaus: ##C++ would be a more appropriate place to ask. You may need to register before joining though. | 16:15 |
| livingdaylight | does Ubuntu come with ssh pre-installed? | 16:15 |
| jrib | kaneda_: no it's not, as I just pointed out. 1) New people join and 2) No one reads every line and may have missed the first time you asked it. So instead of saying "Can anyone help with the above" (and thus making it difficult or impossible to know what you are talking about) or similar, just repeat the question after waiting a reasonable amount of time. | 16:15 |
| MaryMaus | Pici: I'll try, thx | 16:16 |
| icarus-c | livingdaylight: most likely yes | 16:16 |
| kaneda_ | jrib, so i'm guessing you missed the repeat question while typing that long response | 16:16 |

| kaneda^ | jrib, it already has ext3 installed on it | 16:22 |
| kaneda^ | jrib, so yah, it's probably having to do with XFS | 16:22 |

| conb123 | Hiya does anybody know of a way i can test this windows 7 disc on here i need to check whether the fact that it keeps freezing during installation is hardware compatibilities or just a bad disc | 16:34 |

| jrib | conb123: you are asking how to tell if a windows 7 disk is broken or not, I don't see how it's related to ubuntu | 16:35 |

| vak | kaneda^: ok, ic, thx | 16:36 |
| conb123 | jrib: I suppose so i just thought there might be some sort of universal disc quality check type thing | 16:36 |
| trey-0 | sageNsand: would "locking up" give tons of I/O errors? | 16:36 |
| jrib | kaneda^: well good luck. I think you just have to sit down and try to understand the patch | 16:36 |
| om26er | yeah | 16:36 |

| kaneda^ | M3MNY, why transmission? | 16:39 |
| M3MNY | kaneda^: yes, i do :) | 16:39 |
| kaneda^ | there's web interfaces for things like rtorrent | 16:39 |
| kaneda^ | i'm sure you're aware | 16:39 |
| M3MNY | kaneda^: becuse that is the one that comes with Ubuntu, and it works fairly well.. light weight etc | 16:39 |
| kaneda^ | transmission would pretty much be dead last for my choices with ubuntu | 16:39 |
| kaneda^ | M3MNY, i would most likely go with rtorrent, personally | 16:39 |

| kaneda^ | M3MNY, if you've enabled port forwarding and set the port and IP correctly, and if your IP has not changed, then the only suggestion I would make is to bridge your modem | 16:45 |
| === BOFH is now known as Dominian | ||
| M3MNY | kaneda^: what is bridging? and how would i do it? | 16:46 |
| johnBond | i upgraded from 9.05 and NOW i am stuck with "Busybox and <initramfs> prompt.. DID ANYONE get this .. | 16:46 |
| kaneda^ | M3MNY, you need access to the modem, and then you set its mode to "Bridge" | 16:46 |
| kaneda^ | which should send all traffic to the router, which will then port forward it correctly | 16:46 |
| craCkpot | how can i use wget to download all the images in a given URL (without knowing the image's names)? | 16:46 |
| jrib | johnBond: there's no such version as 9.05 | 16:46 |
| Pertheusual | Quick question, if I have a separate boot partition for grub, but now I'm switching to grub2, will that screw everything up? My root filesystem is on an LVM and I think that's confusing grub2 | 16:46 |

| kaneda^ | no steps inbetween | 16:46 |

| Terminus- | on karmic i mean. all the docs i can find are still for jaunty. | 16:48 |
| kaneda^ | Terminus-, make sure you have updated and upgraded so that the newest restricted drivers are in this list | 16:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Terminus-: depends on what video card you got also. a great many no longer use the fglrx drivers | 16:48 |
| jrib | M3MNY: are you ssh'ing into your machine? | 16:48 |

| Guest32405 | сижу настраиваю машинку в режиме ad-hoс чтобы через нее с ноута выходит | 17:14 |
| ewindisch | dekoy, my point was that if you were to delete partitions and recreate new ones at those same offsets, you could potentially run into issues (again, particularly true with MD unless you do mdadm --zero-superblock) | 17:14 |
| blendmaster1024 | casimiro: oooh ouch that can be hard to fix at times :s | 17:14 |

| Fitus | I have a question well more than a question is a doubt, I am a new linux user coming from windows xp I dual boot xp and ubuntu, my doubt is on windows xp I have 2 accounts the user with administrator level ( the one I use to install all programs, and do system wide stuffs ) and a limited user account ( the one that I use for every day usage ) so if something breaks I just delete and create a new limited user account, now would my way work the s | 17:16 |

| blendmaster1024 | sipior: not exactly sure which i'm missing, configure is not telling me much else than "INSTALL X DEVEL HEADERS!!", and so.... but i don't think i did. | 17:16 |
| porter1 | melter, yes, same vim goodness I believe | 17:16 |
| lorecaster | getting permissions errors with samba between my windows and karmic computers, ""y:\writing is not accessable, access is denied"" | 17:17 |
| melter | porter1: thanks! i'll give -gnome one a try | 17:17 |
| ibuclaw | melter, dependency-wise, vim-gtk depends on libgtk. vim-gnome depends on libgnome2, libgnomeui2 and libgtk. | 17:17 |
| MrLogan | Fitus, You mean - should you create an administrator account and a limited user account and only use the admin account when you need to make system wide changes? | 17:17 |
| sipior | blendmaster1024: you'll need to dig through the output of configure. also try "./configure --help", and see config.log. | 17:17 |
| Fitus | yes | 17:17 |
| ibuclaw | melter, I suppose vim-gnome may integrate better with desktop, but other than that, no difference | 17:17 |
| blendmaster1024 | sipior: i was afraid of that :( | 17:17 |
| Zee | Hello World | 17:18 |
| ibuclaw | Hello Zee | 17:18 |
| MrLogan | Fitus, Linux, especially Ubuntu, has you covered there. Just make an account at installation, your main account that you should have now, and just use that. When you need to make system-wide changes you'll use sudo or you'll go root in terminal with su-. | 17:18 |
| ace | Ok, on my acer laptop it's taking about 10 minutes to run Live CD.. I can't get it to install at all. I lose keyboard and mouse so I can't click "Forward" in the first screen. Any help would be appreciated | 17:19 |
| MrLogan | Fitus, Ubuntu won't let you make system-wide changes unless you choose to go root anyway. | 17:19 |
| Zee | Hey ibuclaw | 17:19 |
| Fitus | ok, so it only create one account , are the same all the accounts , there is no separate administrator accounts ? | 17:19 |
| Fitus | like in windows ? | 17:19 |
| mnadhro | hi | 17:19 |
| ibuclaw | ace, what type of laptop (model / hardware) | 17:20 |
| MrLogan | Fitus, there are seperate levels of account, but you need to manually edit them. The "administrator" account group would be the root group. Any account which has root access can be administrator by using sudo/su- in terminal or whenever you attempt to modify your setup. | 17:20 |
| MrLogan | Fitus, otherwise all accounts act exactly the same. (for the most part) | 17:20 |
| ibuclaw | Fitus, there are groups that allow you more access to the system, yes. | 17:20 |
| Fitus | because i have been looking how to create a limited user account in ubuntu but I haven't find anything related to it | 17:20 |
| Jester05 | ha figured it out.. must have ad a bad install of mencoder | 17:20 |
| ace | ibuclaw, Acer Aspire 3640 Laptop.. I had 9.04 running side by side with XP and it worked fine | 17:20 |
| f00f | any type of network backup server for ubuntu ? | 17:20 |
| f00f | anyone... of the top of your heads ? | 17:21 |
| MrLogan | Fitus, to make a limited user account you need go to System->Administration->Users and Groups. | 17:21 |
| Fitus | ok | 17:21 |
| mung | hello. i have a question. how stable is ubuntu moblin remix? and do i get the same apps like in normal ubuntu? merci beaucoupv :) | 17:21 |
| MrLogan | Fitus, then you need to create a new account and then edit which groups it belongs to to limit it's access to your OS. | 17:21 |
| Fitus | yes I want to use the limited account , since I am not really too proficient and don't know much about ubuntu I don't want to mess my ubuntu install | 17:22 |
| ace | ibuclaw, I wanted to format to ext4 and do a clean install | 17:22 |
| vikranth | hey guyz | 17:22 |
| MrLogan | Fitus, I really doubt you'll do anything to mess it up. =) But let's go step-by-step to make you a limited account so you can feel more safe. | 17:22 |
| Fitus | ok | 17:22 |
| Fitus | I am listenning | 17:23 |
| nerdy_kid | how do i create the default xorg config? | 17:23 |
| MrLogan | Fitus, for future reference, as long as your in your main account, the one you're on now I'm assuming - you can't mess up Ubuntu as long as you do not type "sudo" into Terminal and as long as you don't enter your password into any pop-up boxes when trying to make a change. | 17:23 |
| MrLogan | I'm going to PM you. | 17:23 |
| Fitus | ok | 17:23 |

| DJones | chanux: I don't think its done on a regular basis, sometimes they will issue a point release, eg 8.04.1 which would include the updates | 17:39 |

| Mahngiel | anybody here able to discuss how to get my broadcom workin on the new 9.1? feel free to pm | 18:04 |
| Tartaros | kaneda^: the difference is, now you don't have to even touch any boot script. | 18:05 |
| wwp | i've got problems installing ubuntu-xen-server on a x86_64 karmic system | 18:05 |
| kaneda^ | Tartaros, no, but it sounds like you have to write a script just to get boot working | 18:05 |
| eL_pSycHo | kaneda^, Tartaros actually what i want the most out of grub2 is the graphic menus!! :D | 18:05 |
| Tartaros | kaneda^: but that's not the case :) I'm telling you it wsorks :) | 18:05 |
| === kb is now known as Guest76166 | ||
| kaneda^ | Tartaros, i'd love to believe you, but i'm over here writing PXE netboot scripts | 18:05 |
| ortsvorsteher | never2far: why you need to know who is root? ( the one behind sudo ) | 18:06 |
| Tesssa | kaneda ubuntu is trying to attract people away from windows now they have had years of just point and click if you want ubuntu or linux to be the OS oc choioce it will have to be a lot more user friendly | 18:06 |
| === solexious_ is now known as solexious | ||
| kaneda^ | Tesssa, consistency is important to me | 18:06 |
| jacobopeterman | ok Tartaros i found out its a bug in the switch between netbook desktop and typical desktop. but i switched to desktop to see if i could switch back and it would work, but now im in desktop mode with no panels and no way to switch it back | 18:06 |
| kaneda^ | Tesssa, and if it's not going to be consistent then it is MORE confusing, not less so | 18:06 |
| guntbert | !root | never2far | 18:06 |
| ubottu | never2far: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 18:06 |
| Tesssa | or perhaps linux doesant want to do that | 18:07 |
| kaneda^ | Tesssa, ubuntu is not "linux" | 18:07 |
| kaneda^ | ubuntu is ubuntu | 18:07 |
| kaneda^ | hell, ubuntu is hardly debian ;p | 18:07 |
| grawity | kaneda^: Ubuntu is a Linux distribution. | 18:07 |
| Tesssa | but it is a derivative of linux | 18:07 |
| never2far | ortsvorsteher, it's not about the root :) ...i need to find the user that executed a script using sudo | 18:07 |
| Pici | !offtopic | Tesssa kaneda^ | 18:07 |
| ubottu | Tesssa kaneda^: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 18:07 |
| Tesssa | so it tells me | 18:07 |
| grawity | 'a' | 18:07 |
| eL_pSycHo | Tesssa, kaneda^ user friendliness is the goal of ubuntu... not linux. | 18:07 |
| Tartaros | jacobopeterman: well I have no idea how your desktop looks now, I'd perhaps try to uninstall the netbook desktop from commandline or some such thing... | 18:07 |
| never2far | and if i use $USER variable ...i get root not the real user | 18:07 |
| kaneda^ | eL_pSycHo, this is why i'm not upgrading | 18:08 |
| jacobopeterman | Tartaros, sorry, that seems like a terrible solution. :) this is a pretty serious bug though | 18:08 |
| kaneda^ | eL_pSycHo, it feels like a sacrifice ;p | 18:08 |
| never2far | guntbert, i don't need root password | 18:08 |
| Tartaros | kaneda^: netboot scripts? well whats your point then? :) | 18:08 |
| Tesssa | now i have 9.10 working perfect on my puter at last | 18:08 |

| Pici | Can we please keep the discussion here focussed on support. #ubuntu-offtopic exists for chat. Thanks. | 18:08 |
| xpo0f | im really luv this room .. | 18:08 |
| linxeh | xpo0f: :D | 18:08 |
| ortsvorsteher | never2far: sure you get root. because sudo means do it as root. if you need to know which user it makes, try to see in crontabs or search the hist files from all users you have on system | 18:08 |
| === quincy_ is now known as Quincii | ||

| Doorman352 | is there a sudo command for gui apps in ubuntu? | 18:09 |
| ortsvorsteher | linxeh: yes ;) | 18:09 |
| Pici | Doorman352: gksudo | 18:09 |
| kaneda^ | hmm, so does anyone know why i cant create an XFS with block size greater than 4k? | 18:09 |

| dual | not_expert, install windows, download wubi, install ubuntu | 18:12 |
| dual | In that order | 18:12 |
| not_expert | kaneda^:windows | 18:13 |
| kaneda^ | not_expert, what dual said | 18:13 |
| blackxored | anyone? | 18:13 |
| Tartaros | Mahngiel: why exactly are you asking about windows in an ubuntu channel? | 18:13 |
| Jeruvy | Mahngiel: you should ask in ##windows | 18:13 |
| not_expert | kaneda^: but wubi dosen't work | 18:13 |
| kaneda^ | not_expert, raelly just install windows first, whatever you do | 18:13 |
| kaneda^ | not_expert, then dont use wubi | 18:13 |
| xpo0f | kaneda^, hehe .. windows | 18:13 |
| not_expert | kaneda^: other ways? | 18:13 |
| Mahngiel | i'm tyring to find the card info so i can figure out how the hell to put the drivers up on ubuntu | 18:13 |
| dual | not_expert, Try putting in the ubuntu cd after installing windows | 18:13 |
| kaneda^ | not_expert, listen to dual :) | 18:13 |
| Jeruvy | blackxored: wget doesn't support a resume. You'll have to start over. | 18:14 |
| ortsvorsteher | !language | Mahngiel | 18:14 |

| kaneda^ | ortsvorsteher, hell? | 18:14 |

| ortsvorsteher | sure kaneda^ | 18:14 |
| blackxored | Jeruvy, can I use another program to start a download from 48 mb and beyond to cat both files after finishing ??? | 18:14 |
| Mahngiel | my appologies. just trying to get my wireless card to work on ubuntu 9.1 | 18:14 |
| * ortsvorsteher means hell is not familiy friendly ;) | 18:14 | |

| blackxored | anyone knows about such a tool? | 18:15 |
| xpo0f | apt-get update && apt-get upgrade | 18:15 |
| kaneda^ | Mahngiel, ubuntu is really good at discovering and finding your drivers | 18:15 |
| kaneda^ | if an update/upgrade doesn't work you need to consider another option | 18:16 |
| Tartaros | blackxored: did you try -c ? | 18:16 |

I did notice (even when its 5ft away) the signal went from 75% to 90% when changing channel to something higher.. might be opposite way around for you tho.. also using wicd now as network manager caused lockups. | 18:21 |

| kaneda^ | hi | 18:31 |

| LordDragon | im having trouble installing flash player under 9.10 :( | 18:31 |
| nb72 | Is there a project that has really good developer documentation? I'm just looking for examples to get some ideas of how others do it. | 18:31 |
| LordDragon | it says there is a dependency issue | 18:31 |
| kaneda^ | lord_hypnos, free or non-free? | 18:31 |
| kaneda^ | woops, autocomplete failure | 18:31 |
| LordDragon | kaneda^, free. the iso fromthe website | 18:31 |
| kaneda^ | LordDragon, you can check the dependencies it needs via apt | 18:31 |
| kaneda^ | you can ask it to build those dependencies using apt as well | 18:32 |
| kaneda^ | or rather, install them, not build them | 18:32 |
| mMezquitale | zsquareplusc, did you install or configured firefox to use a different font from the default one before you upgraded to karmic? | 18:32 |

| mMezquitale | zsquareplusc, try installing and using different fonts, if that only happens in firefox then most likely the issue is only with firefox, changing the DPI in ubuntu wont make a difference, looks like it's some configuration with firefox | 18:38 |
| Temujin | how do you set a static ip in ubuntu? | 18:38 |
| kaneda^ | Pici, it used to be that you could specific a corner but not a location | 18:38 |

| Dr_Willis | EasyTUX: check the commands the !clone factoid give. then pipe it through grep | 18:59 |
| Dr_Willis | !clone | EasyTUX | 18:59 |
| ubottu | EasyTUX: 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 | 18:59 |
| usser | bruno123, pretty much. and yes you will have to do manual partition and mount your home partition to /home without reformatting that partition | 18:59 |
| usser | surgy, 9.04 also had pulse. | 18:59 |
| petter__ | i allready hade flashplugin-nonfree installed , what should i to then ? | 18:59 |
| Dr_Willis | EasyTUX: you could grep that file 'my-packages' for lines with grep :) | 18:59 |
| bruno123 | surgy for my part, I tend to stay away from updating...and prefer fresh installs. To make this easier, I have two partitions....one for root / and one for /home. | 19:00 |
| wiehan | Hi, just installed 9.10 32bit on my dad's PC and there is a big problem, I get a black screen on the start up (installation was successful)... PLEASE HELP ME FIX THIS. BIG MESS | 19:00 |
| Die_Hard_Linux | does anyone use or have any experience with the following tv card: Kworld SAA7133? | 19:00 |
| surgy | bruno123, then what changed about the audio system? | 19:00 |
| Dr_Willis | wiehan: do you see a GDM login? do you see the GRUB menu? do you see the logo/splash/throbber? | 19:01 |
| EasyTUX | "clone factoid" clone command not found I should install it ? | 19:01 |
| surgy | i cant change to alsa? | 19:01 |
| bruno123 | usser it will of course indicate what partitions will and wont be formatted correct??? And, if I have wine installed already...it should be detected and no need to reinstall any apps that were installed subsequent to the initial 9.04 install right? | 19:01 |
| surgy | or oss ? | 19:01 |
| wiehan | Dr_Willis: I see the grub menu (but not really, for 1 second) then the nice new glowing ubuntu sign then just complete blackness | 19:01 |
| gremuni | hi ! | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis | EasyTUX: READ what the bot said. it showed the command. :) | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis | !clone | EasyTUX | 19:01 |
| bruno123 | surgy have you checked all volume controls etc. carefully?? | 19:01 |
| qq99 | where can I add to the PATH variable for only the current user? | 19:02 |
| gremuni | hi from france :) | 19:02 |

| jugglerbry | hi all. having problems with software centre. trying to install various software, but after i've entered my password am getting the error "Requires installation of untrusted packages. The action would require the installation of packages not authenticated sources" then fails to install anyone help ? | 19:02 |
| VCoolio | harleypig: try install galternatives, is a gui and easier to handle | 19:02 |
| surgy | bruno123, not many sliders on 9.10 | 19:03 |
| wiehan | Dr_Willis: He uses an old nvidia 6600 AGP graphics card which worked perfect in 9.04 | 19:03 |
| usser | bruno123, yes theres a simple checkmark that says "format", just set the mountpoint /home. regarding wine you will have to install wine, but as long as you installed all your windows applications to a standard location ie C:\. which is located in your home partition's .wine folder they should be safe | 19:03 |
| harleypig | VCoolio: thx, will check it out | 19:03 |
| bruno123 | surgy how about uninstalling and then reinstalling the program that is having difficulties? Are you still running the one that was originally installed in 9.04??? | 19:03 |
| m8 | Hi, i can install vnc4server (in ubuntu server) witouth xorg? | 19:03 |

| Bryce1 | is there a way i can reset my grub if i have made changes i do not wish to keep? | 19:03 |
| usser | m8, what is the point of such a setup? | 19:03 |
| bruno123 | usser thanks users...my fears have been relieved....but I will still backup most important documents since last backup | 19:04 |
| m8 | usser? | 19:04 |
| Dr_Willis | m8: you mean sudo apt-get install vnc4server should install all needed extra packages | 19:04 |
| usser | bruno123, yea backup never hurts | 19:04 |
| egyn | Hi, i've just installed 9.10. Discovered it uses Empathy (i used pidgin before) and now nickserv wants me to identify but i cannot seem to send a "/msg" using empathy, how to solve this? | 19:04 |
| surgy | bruno123, the program cannot be installed through linux. you have to install it in windows and copy paste the folder..... im almost certain this is a new ubuntu audio vs old wine audio problem | 19:04 |
| astore | Sorry for the delay anyone able to help me I have not found the solution | 19:04 |
| soul_discharge | i've got a noob question, when installing 9-10 from a usb stick on windows why does it start to download the iso all over again? | 19:04 |
| mathias_maranhao | Is there any Israeli here? PM me PLS | 19:04 |
| qq99 | Dr_Willis, thanks, is the synatx PATH=/var/lib/...:$PATH ? | 19:04 |
| m8 | Dr_Willis: yes... but i want to install in a headless config | 19:04 |
| surgy | i just want my audio how it use to be..... | 19:04 |
| gremuni | or not :/ | 19:04 |
| Bryce1 | soul_discharge: are you useing unetbootin? | 19:04 |

| clippy | 9.10: external drive is now a read-only fs. how to fix plz? | 19:05 |
| m8 | Dr_Willis: xorg is system resource expensive, i want to run vnc4server witouth xorg :| for a virtual Xfce desktop | 19:05 |
| Bryce1 | is there a way to reset grub to default settings? | 19:05 |
| usser | m8, vnc4server without xorg makes no sense. | 19:05 |
| Dr_Willis | m8: so .. ssh in and install the package.. it will pull in all needed extra packages.. You may want to use tightvnc insteead of vnc4server.. and you will want to install some window manager for vnc to use. | 19:05 |
| soul_discharge | unetbootin? not sure what that is. i made the stick from a virtual isntall of ubuntu. i want it to install it on my partition whilst inside windows | 19:05 |
| gremuni | hey guys !!! | 19:05 |

| usser | than0, tar | 19:05 |
| gremuni | please | 19:05 |
| mathias_maranhao | shosh | 19:06 |
| bruno123 | surgy, what I am suggesting is that when you first ran the program maybe the setup was fine for 9.04 etc. Perhaps starting completely fresh with the installation of the dungeons program with the new ubuntu (and I dont think you said what version of wine) might do something. Trial and error. It is what I would try first. | 19:06 |
| VCoolio | qq99: this is how I do it: first line " | 19:06 |
| Bryce1 | is there a way to reset grub to the default settings? | 19:06 |

| bruno123 | surgy do you have your data backed up? | 19:06 |
| than0 | usser, thanks | 19:07 |
| Dr_Willis | wiehan: it pays to be concise however.. You get GRUB -> xsplash -> NO GDM LOGIN however? | 19:07 |
| gremuni | marx: I also have problems with ACPI support ! | 19:07 |
| gremuni | grrr | 19:07 |

| oliver3 | guys, I have programs installed that are marked as being automatically installed, how would I change that? | 19:08 |
| astore | then nobody can help me or tell qualquno | 19:08 |
| bruno123 | jugglerbry what version of ubuntu? Have you updated sources? | 19:08 |
| usser | than0, ok | 19:08 |
| qq99 | VCoolio, thanks | 19:08 |
| marx | gremuni, do you know if there is a solution? | 19:08 |
| wiehan | gremuni: How do I switch that off (it is a clean install) | 19:08 |
| bruno123 | Have you added keys jugglerbry | 19:08 |
| than0 | usser, I want to duplicate my entire Ex4 / to BTRFS / | 19:08 |
| gremuni | marx: I'm looking for .. | 19:08 |
| oliver3 | oh aptitude can do it | 19:08 |
| Dr_Willis | wiehan: you would be better off to clarify the question instead of yelling 'HELP ME' - You could try installing the proper nvidia drivers from the consoles on alt-ctrl-f1, but im not suew what version is needed for that car4d | 19:08 |
| damo_ | hiya people how do i apply my theme package with icons and task bar in ubuntu ? | 19:08 |
| jugglerbry | bruno:running karmic. how do i update sources ? | 19:08 |
| gremuni | wiehan: edit your grub conf file | 19:09 |
| marx | ok gremuni :) I hope you find a solution soon | 19:09 |
| gremuni | and add acpi=off | 19:09 |
| than0 | Would this be enough: "tar cvpjf backup.tar.bz2 --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tar.bz2 --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys /" | 19:09 |
| gremuni | marx: do u have the same issue ? | 19:09 |
| bruno123 | jugglerbry go to system--admin---software sources | 19:09 |
| gremuni | a friend of mine, got the same laptop | 19:09 |
| gremuni | running centos | 19:09 |
| bruno123 | what is selected jugglerbry main server, us server? | 19:09 |
| than0 | usser, or should I just do "cp -a / /media/BTRFS" | 19:09 |
| VCoolio | damo_: extract in ~/.themes or drop the .tar.gz in appearance window, then select it | 19:09 |
| gremuni | and does not have the problem | 19:09 |
| VCoolio | damo_: icons in ~/.icons | 19:09 |
| JuJuBee | my /var/log/messages file has over 71K lines in it.... | 19:09 |

| jzaboo | Hi, got a short question about mrtg. Since the official mrtg irc chan ist empty / no longer active I hope anyone can help me out? | 19:09 |
| marx | yes. when the system goes to supend mode it doesnt wake up. it shows a black screen with a blinking cursor. I have to do a hard reset | 19:10 |
| gremuni | wiehan: /etc/grub.d | 19:10 |
| oliver3 | alright maybe not. For some reason aptitude unmarkauto REMOVED the damn packages | 19:10 |
| jugglerbry | brno123:Server for UK | 19:10 |
| bruno123 | first, I myself use main server jugglerbry as I have had issues with country specific ones in the past | 19:10 |
| rbrunhuber | I have quite a funny behaviour of scp if I "push" a file scp says it transferred it but i never reaches the target but when i pull it is transfered | 19:10 |
| gremuni | marx: ok. my laptop crashes ever if I don't suspend it | 19:10 |
| wiehan | gremuni: Thank you, then just add this: acpi=off somewere? Will I clearly see where to place it, or should you rather elaborate? | 19:11 |
| bruno123 | jugglerbry , also what software are you trying to install (give one that it is choking on) | 19:11 |
| gremuni | it crashes randomly (but shortly) after the login screen, as wiehan | 19:11 |
| jzaboo | I tried to setup mrtg but the necessary MIBs seem not to be loaded. why? | 19:11 |
| usser | than0, boot from livecd mount your ext4 partition somewhere to /mnt, mount btrfs partition, mount an external driver where you will keep a backup of your ext4 and btrfs partitions, cd /mnt/externaldrive && tar cvf ext4.tar /mnt/ext4partition | 19:11 |
| jugglerbry | bruno123:trying to install gcolor2 | 19:11 |
| astore | help | 19:11 |
| Gizmo_the_Great | hi. Just got a new monitor. Trying to manually input the vertical and horizontal refresh rates etc. Cant remember how to do it though? Have tried manually editing /etc/X11/xorg but it screwed up the display and I had to restore from backup. You used to be able to run the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but it just asks me about keboard? | 19:11 |
| usser | than0, then tar cvf btrfs.tar /mnt/btrfs_part | 19:11 |
| usser | than0, that will effectively backup both of your partitions | 19:12 |
| usser | than0, once you have both backups in place | 19:12 |
| jugglerbry | bruno123:also set to main server, and reloaded, but not getting error could not download all repository indexes | 19:12 |
| usser | than0, rm -rf /mnt/btrfs_partition/* | 19:12 |
| wiehan | gremuni: Is this a permanent fix? | 19:12 |
| === tolga__ is now known as suigeneris | ||
| jzaboo | no one who knows how to setup mrtg? | 19:12 |
| than0 | ok | 19:12 |

| bruno123 | jugglerbry you are using software centre correct? | 19:13 |
| osmosis | i installed grub-chooose-defaut on karmic, and it jacked up all my grub2 stuff. | 19:13 |
| wiehan | gremuni: ok: edit grub.cfg, in /boot/grub/ and then acpi=off... that all? Should I do dpkg-reconfigure xserver.org or not? | 19:14 |
| than0 | usser, I cannot use "tar cvf /" while logged into ext4 system? | 19:14 |
| usser | than0, that is assuming both btrfs and ext4 partition have the same basic config(ie were installed and configured on the same machine) otherwise some modifications will be needed, ie fstab may be wrong, /boot/grub may point to the wrong place. in other words be prepared for screw ups. | 19:14 |
| usser | than0, thats a no no | 19:14 |
| bruno123 | Could you try synaptic manager to install same package? jugglerbry | 19:14 |
| osmosis | i installed grub-chooose-defaut on karmic, and it jacked up all my grub2 stuff by installing the old grub on top. | 19:14 |
| gremuni | wiehan: reconfigure grube, yep | 19:14 |
| usser | than0, livecd | 19:14 |
| osmosis | How do I figure out what package is suppose to own update-grub ? | 19:14 |
| Doorman352 | catamarquence: you mean on shutdown/reboot? | 19:14 |

| wiehan | gremuni: Sorry, I'm not an expert, reconfigure grub as well, how? | 19:15 |
| Temujin | where is the startup applications file? | 19:15 |
| usser | bruno123, there might be problems since 9.10 uses grub2 | 19:15 |
| jugglerbry | bruno123:yep. think i can dl from synaptic. frustrating bug though. lets hope it gets fixed soon. thanks for the help | 19:15 |
| bruno123 | jugglerbry you are saying that switching to main server solved part of problem....but now a new error message correct? | 19:15 |
| Temujin | okay wate wate | 19:15 |
| usser | bruno123, but unless you have some sort of non-standard grub config it should be fine | 19:15 |
| bruno123 | usser pretty standard fare I think, just dont want to lose access to windoze for gamin | 19:16 |
| bruno123 | tgaming | 19:16 |

| Gizmo_the_Great | just got disconnected so not sure if reply received......Just got a new monitor. Trying to manually input the vertical and horizontal refresh rates etc. Cant remember how to do it though? Have tried manually editing /etc/X11/xorg but it screwed up the display and I had to restore from backup. You used to be able to run the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but it just asks me about keboard? | 19:21 |

| VCoolio | damo_: it is defined by your gtk theme; you may want to look into gnomenu on gnome-look.org: http://tiny.cc/9KvuF | 19:21 |

| than0 | usser, In Jaunty, pulse audio and alsa would just disable sound.. until reset when I am using buggy alsa game, (Savage 2).. | 19:26 |
| ibuclaw | than0, actually, ignore that statement, I wrote my own wiimote library in Perl (based off a wrapper a friend wrote in C++), and in turn, my own interface with that. | 19:26 |
| jonpagecr | hi | 19:27 |

| than0 | ibuclaw, is that library useable without IR bars? | 19:30 |
| jugglerbry | bruno123:how odd. i've just installed it successfully using apt-get install via terminal, but just wont work in software centre | 19:30 |

| damo_ | kk thanks | 19:30 |
| than0 | ibuclaw, i used the accelerator, and it's not really useable as mouse | 19:30 |
| rpolak | I can't get upstart to not load the process | 19:30 |
| damo_ | link coolio ? | 19:30 |
| ibuclaw | than0, it's not a very high-end library though, requires some knowledge of programming to make it *do* what you want. | 19:30 |
| usser | bruno123, xchat is pretty good | 19:30 |
| puppe | bruno123: would go with xchat | 19:30 |
| ibuclaw | than0, it doesn't need IR | 19:30 |
| bruno123 | jugglerbry, maybe a reboot will fix something. Anyway, you got it working which is good. | 19:30 |
| VCoolio | damo_: http://tiny.cc/9KvuF install; then add it to your panel and right click to modify | 19:30 |

| jugglerbry | bruno123:i'll give a reboot a try, but yes, got it eventually. thanks for the help though | 19:31 |
| cankoy | Rodensky: first check with 'sudo blkid' for /dev/sda8's fstype and UUID value | 19:31 |
| bruno123 | usser puppe xchat or xchat gnome??? (Also some say Ilrss or something liek that is good but cant find it). | 19:31 |

| terrafox | skysong: jaunty | 19:40 |
| cankoy | Rodensky: then just do what I said... | 19:41 |
| skysong | alright. try searching for gxine? | 19:41 |
| exodus_ms | VCoolio, the time it's displayed, position, maybe a way to set an exception in compiz etc | 19:41 |
| usser | acct1, put the command in /etc/rc.local | 19:41 |
| kazagistar | Doc_Lappy: I have a low end one, and everything seems to work fine for me | 19:41 |
| usser | acct1, thats one way, but usually kernel parameters are put in /etc/sysctl.conf | 19:42 |
| terrafox | skysong: nothing | 19:42 |
| acct1 | usser: so it has to run on every reboot? i guess that's new kernel thing? | 19:42 |

| infid | tonno same way | 19:42 |
| exodus_ms | VCoolio, looked through gconf-editor and I couldnt find notify-osd but I did find update-notifier and some others | 19:42 |
| ibuclaw | usser, not /sys parameters | 19:42 |
| usser | acct1, no its a really convoluted way of doing things but its easy | 19:42 |
| VCoolio | exodus_ms: the way it looks is fixed, but if you want it to be positioned in the top right corner and not below, you need an other package in karmic, I'll give you a link | 19:42 |
| ibuclaw | usser, sysctl controls /proc/sys parameters | 19:42 |
| Rodensky | i guess there is some sort of impotance to the phrase after "ext4.." | 19:42 |
| cankoy | Rodensky: paste the line you added, I'll check it | 19:42 |
| ibuclaw | iirc | 19:42 |
| acct1 | usser: thanks i'll try that. | 19:42 |
| usser | ibuclaw, where does /sys conf go? | 19:42 |
| usser | ibuclaw, i mean what conf control /sys stuff | 19:43 |
| skysong | !xine | 19:43 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about xine | 19:43 |
| VCoolio | exodus_ms: http://ppa.launchpad.net/gilir/updates/ubuntu | 19:43 |
| lstarnes | usser: /etc/sysctl.conf controls sysctl, which has control over at least part of /sys | 19:43 |
| VCoolio | exodus_ms: in karmic the popups are lower than in jaunty for obscure reasons | 19:43 |
| baba_b00ie | i heard through the grapvine that 9.10 was sorta buggy. | 19:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Tonno: on 9.10 gdm is not as themeable at this time as it used to be. | 19:43 |
| baba_b00ie | is that true | 19:43 |
| * ibuclaw looks at the script | 19:43 | |
| Tonno | infid, noup, because if i go to Login screen on System, it dont show me the list of screen that i have. | 19:43 |
| skysong | terrafox: how did you search for xine? through synaptic? | 19:43 |
| Dr_Willis | baba_b00ie: i have no issues hwere with my 3 machines with 3 clean installs | 19:43 |
| terrafox | skysong: yes | 19:44 |
| kazagistar | Doc_Lappy: mine worked fine by going to "System > Hardware Drivers" and installing the Broadcom STA drivers, but it might be broken after trying other things | 19:44 |
| usser | lstarnes, how about what ibuclaw said "usser, sysctl controls /proc/sys parameters" | 19:44 |

| dante123 | Doc_Lappy what kind of pc? brand etc? | 19:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Tonno: check out http://epidermis.tuxfamily.org/ it lets you change the GDM a little bit. :) | 19:44 |
| exodus_ms | VCoolio, what is the deal for when I hover over it, it goes transparent, nice feature but totally useless for me, Is this something that needs to be changed in notify-osd or is compiz applying this setting? | 19:44 |
| ibuclaw | usser, last time I looked, that was the case | 19:45 |
| exodus_ms | VCoolio, I cant apply an exception in compiz for the notifier because it never gains focus so to speak | 19:45 |

| terrafox | skysong: installing. will try and let u know | 19:45 |
| ibuclaw | usser, then again, last time I looked, it was a script that handled the /etc/sysctl.conf file | 19:45 |
| ibuclaw | that seems not to be the case now | 19:45 |
| usser | ibuclaw, cool | 19:46 |

| cankoy | Rodensky: what makes you question? do you know sth that I dont? | 19:48 |
| lstarnes | Rodensky: in which editor? | 19:48 |
| ibuclaw | usser, when you load a device with modprobe, you can specify parameters for which that device uses | 19:48 |

| ortsvorsteher | !gimp | jugglerbry__ | 19:50 |
| ubottu | jugglerbry__: gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu. See http://www.gimp.org for tutorials and more information. | 19:50 |
| skysong | Rodensky: you're using nano? | 19:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Vhozard: i noticed some how i drag windows UP and they full screened/maxanized fro me the other day. | 19:50 |
| ibuclaw | usser, /proc is for processes, and system attributes (ie: /proc/sys/vm/swappiness, which controls how much Linux favours swap over RAM) | 19:51 |
| Vhozard | Dr_Willis yes, I get that too. I have 4 virtual desktops with compiz. | 19:51 |
| terrafox | skysong: how do i check the card | 19:51 |
| skysong | terrafox: you have a geforce? | 19:51 |
| usser | ibuclaw, right | 19:51 |
| rpolak | ugglerbry__: Gimp | 19:51 |
| terrafox | skysong: yes | 19:51 |
| Rodensky | skysong: i think so, not sure, i opened it with "sudo editor" in the terminal | 19:51 |
| Vhozard | Dr_Willis Yes, that possible if you maximize a window and then drag it down and up again. | 19:51 |
| ibuclaw | usser, both /sys and /proc are temporary (or volatile) filesystems, so any changes are lost at reboot. But you should know that already. | 19:51 |
| jugglerbry__ | seems to be unanimous then. spend time learning gimp. thanks all | 19:52 |
| skysong | terrafox: then it might be that you'll need to download and install the drivers.. sudo apt-get update then run synaptic and search for nvidia | 19:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Vhozard: i wasent sure how it got triggered,. :) i just noticed it doing it on accident. | 19:52 |
| Dr_Willis | jugglerbry__: check out the 'meet the gimp' web site with video tutorials. | 19:52 |
| wwp | hey anybody here who knows how to get xen running under karmic x86_64? | 19:52 |
| skysong | Rodensky: if its nano then it should be control+O | 19:52 |
| Vhozard | Dr_Willis Haha, me too. But I know now it only happens if a window is already maximized. | 19:52 |
| skysong | and control+x to exit nano | 19:52 |
| jugglerbry__ | ok dr willis will do, thanks for the tip | 19:53 |
| terrafox | skysong: i have the x server and hardware divers (the one wiht the lock icon on it) | 19:53 |
| Rodensky | in a few minutes the system will end installing updates and then i'll reboot to see if it worked.. | 19:53 |
| vmware-trouble | usser: where did it install, cant find it :( | 19:54 |
| skysong | terrafox: i *think* the nvidia drivers in the repo should have -sources in the name.. is this the one you installed? | 19:54 |

| ward- | vmware-trouble, theres virtualbox-ose and virtualbox, only virtualbox had usb support | 19:55 |
| ward- | just to be clear | 19:55 |
| usser | vmware-trouble, usually goes into main menu->system tools | 19:55 |
| ibuclaw | Xubuntus, I recognise that card ... | 19:55 |
| ibuclaw | Realtek? | 19:55 |
| terrafox | skysong: dont see that one. i have NVIDIA X Server Settings and NVIDIA accelerated grafics direce ver 180 that was recomended | 19:57 |
| skysong | terrafox: install it. | 19:57 |
| ibuclaw | terrafox, in the hardware drivers menu? | 19:57 |
| xuzas | #join ubuntu-es | 19:57 |
| xuzas | joder | 19:57 |
| usser | vmware-trouble, also look at the VBoxManage and such command line utilities and VirtualBox RDP interface, they are not as gui-friendly as vmware web page configuartion, but they sure are faster and more reliable and with SSH server and a small linux install like basic debian you have a pretty much full-fledged hypervisor, at least beats Microsoft's hyper-v thats for sure | 19:57 |
| skysong | terrafox: sorry really can't give you exact names since im not running ubuntu. The 180 drivers should work fine though. | 19:57 |
| terrafox | yes the hardware menu and its installed | 19:57 |
| xuzas | join #ubuntu-es | 19:58 |
| VCoolio | where do I change sound to alsa in karmic? gnome-volume-control is being ridiculous (says nothing is playing audio while mplayer is blowing Mozarts Requiem into my room) and also lacks the old options | 19:58 |
| xuzas | mecaguento | 19:58 |
| skysong | terrafox: have you tried glxgears? | 19:58 |
| terrafox | skysong: np | 19:58 |
| ibuclaw | terrafox, FYI, the 180 drivers are just a placeholder name. | 19:58 |
| vmware-trouble | usser: ok I need to find where my XP-module for last vmware was | 19:58 |
| ibuclaw | you'll really be installing the 185 drivers | 19:58 |
| terrafox | skysong: no. how do i do it | 19:58 |
| skysong | terrafox: open a terminal and type glxgears | 19:58 |
| wwp | should i ask in #ubuntu-server instead? | 19:59 |
| vmware-trouble | usser: where does vmware usually keep those images ? | 19:59 |
| skysong | check the output, it should yield something like >2k fps | 19:59 |

| Tonno | did someone here have AWN on top of the screen? | 20:36 |
| clarinet | ctmjr: Thanks. | 20:36 |
| underdog1227 | i seem to have a problem: i update ubuntu to 9.1, but while i was doing this update, i had my external mouse plugged in: now my touchpad no longer works. any ideas anyone? | 20:36 |
| clarinet | ubottu:Thanks. | 20:36 |
| larrythelabrat | xpo0f: says invalid option -- 'e' | 20:37 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 20:37 |
| Daremonai | grawity.. ah alright, well i'll do a symlink for .Xresources :P | 20:37 |
| xpo0f | larrythelabrat, maybe just go to #modprobe -a | 20:37 |
| will1378 | gpled. no clue, not exactly silicon valleys crown jewel anymore. thats why windows got the boot. could be the comp for sure. | 20:37 |
| larrythelabrat | xpo0f, gives me a usage guide | 20:37 |
| xpo0f | if not ... just install [ aptitude update && aptitude install wifi-radar wireless-tools .. hope it help | 20:38 |
| ctmjr | clarinet:: you welcome if you have any questions the people in #compiz are very helpful if their around | 20:38 |
| xpo0f | larrythelabrat, #man modprobe | 20:38 |
| xpo0f | or look for #lsmod | 20:38 |
| gpled | will1378: i would poke around in the bios, and see if there is a setting for it | 20:38 |
| clarinet | ctmjr:OK. | 20:38 |

| underdog1227 | gpled: can i revert back to 9.04 | 20:39 |
| === D is now known as Guest15383 | ||

| underdog1227 | gpled: 9.10 is on it right now | 20:40 |
| gpled | underdog1227: thought you where saying you had 9.1 | 20:40 |
| xpo0f | larrythelabrat, modprobe for load a module in kernel .. so that u'll have wlan0 interface | 20:40 |
| will1378 | gpled odd thing about that, this toshiba sat 1800 must have had some rapid bios imposed, i cant seem to f1, f12, del into bios. f12 gets me to a boot screen and thats it. just a junky pIII laptop running a ppt on a plasma screen in dads construction companys waiting room | 20:40 |

| xpo0f | snowveil, look for nodev options | 20:41 |
| larrythelabrat | xpo0f, so I want to load the wlan0 module #modprobe wlan0? | 20:41 |
| gpled | will1378: google around. some times the put strange key combos in. alt s or something | 20:41 |
| Daremonai | grawity, the merge merges the filename with what file? | 20:42 |
| gpled | underdog1227: that a netbook? | 20:42 |
| underdog1227 | gpled: yes | 20:42 |
| will1378 | gpled- good call. | 20:42 |
| grawity | Daremonai: It doesn't -- it just tells X to load the resources from file on top of the currently-in-memory ones. | 20:42 |
| underdog1227 | i seem to have a problem: i updated ubuntu to 9.1, but while i was doing this update, i had my external mouse plugged in: now my laptop's built-in touchpad no longer works. any ideas anyone? | 20:42 |
| xpo0f | what model ? intel centrino or else? | 20:42 |
| osmosis | audio calls are working in empathy, but video calls just disconnect | 20:42 |
| gpled | underdog1227: think they are working on a distro, just for netbooks. not sure if it is out yet | 20:42 |
| Daremonai | grawity what happens if i restart? | 20:42 |
| konstantine | QUESTION: hello! Does anyone know what is the purpose of the <gettext_domain> element in a gconf schema? | 20:43 |
| gpled | underdog1227: no cdrom drive? | 20:43 |
| underdog1227 | gpled: i have that distro installed | 20:43 |
| grawity | Daremonai: As I already said, Ubuntu and many other distros are preconfigured to load one of these two files automatically. | 20:43 |
| underdog1227 | i have the ubuntu netbook remix 9.10 installed | 20:43 |

| Mr-Woof | hi all, quick question regarding compiz on 8.10 | 20:43 |
| Daremonai | grawity.. alright... but i've had the xdefaults before and it wasn't loaded | 20:43 |
| grawity | Daremonai: "one of these two" | 20:43 |

| Mr-Woof | I've got an ATI card, only just realised tonight one of the updates must of been ATI drivers :) | 20:44 |
| cJ__ | mr-woof just ask | 20:44 |
| grawity | Daremonai: Oh, and make sure the X is uppercase. | 20:44 |
| Mr-Woof | So i can finally enable the desktop effects | 20:44 |
| Mr-Woof | woo | 20:44 |
| xpo0f | OpticOn, im sure about pam.conf | 20:44 |
| gpled | underdog1227: i now it is really new distro, may want to check the bug track. bet it has issues | 20:44 |
| Daremonai | grawity, understood.. so i guess it's the resource one, and yeah, already have it as X | 20:44 |
| vithos | where in the filesystem are smb shares mounted by nautilus? | 20:44 |
| grawity | Daremonai: I'm not on Ubuntu now, and don't have GDM or GNOME either. So I don't know which component loads things. | 20:44 |
| grawity | vithos: ~/.gvfs/ | 20:44 |
| OpticOn | what should i check | 20:44 |
| vithos | grawity: thanks | 20:44 |
| Mr-Woof | I've just installed the compizconfig settings manager, i can move the cube about but it's in 2d if that makes any sense | 20:44 |
| xpo0f | OpticOn, look in /etc/pam.conf or related | 20:45 |
| gpled | underdog1227: its cool you could make a flash boot drive though :) | 20:45 |
| Daremonai | grawity, alright.. thanks for the info | 20:45 |
| cJ__ | mr-woof did you enable compiz effects | 20:45 |
| grawity | vithos: Remember that those are GVFS mounts, a GNOME thing -- not the traditional "mount -t cifs" thing. | 20:45 |
| slide | I have an HP Laptop running 9.10 and while WIFI works fine, the physica wifi button light is constantly blinking. is there any fix for that? | 20:45 |

| Mr-Woof | CJ,I'm not sure to be honest. Where is it on 8.10? | 20:45 |
| konstantine | Mr-Woof: you probably have only 2 desktops. Add 2 more to create a3d cube | 20:46 |
| xpo0f | slide, mean wifi look for burst data network | 20:46 |
| OpticOn | im looking at it now looks pretty blank | 20:46 |

| FCalderon | is it just me or 9.10 KK takes longer to boot even though seems to run faster after it's fully loaded? | 20:48 |
| guntbert | Mr-Woof: right click on the desktop switcher - preferences | 20:48 |
| OpticOn | their is a directory called pam.d | 20:48 |
| konstantine | Mr-Woof: right click on the workspace applet on your bottom panel and set columns to 2 | 20:48 |
| xpo0f | snowveil, look for #man fstab | 20:48 |

| Mr-Woof | aha, that works :) | 20:49 |
| Domitor_Invictus | this not being able to play mp3 files is so frustrating, i tried to download Banshee, and it took way too much time because of slow connection or numerous big files | 20:49 |
| xpo0f | ! | 20:49 |
| Vhozard | FCalderon Which part takes longer? | 20:49 |
| snowveil | xpo0f, the device is a removable media, it's not in my fstab | 20:49 |
| konstantine | Mr-Woof: enjoy your cube! | 20:49 |
| xpo0f | snowveil, i know but that is an options there ... | 20:49 |
| Domitor_Invictus | any help available? about codecs or the likes? or any solution concerning playing music and video? | 20:49 |
| xpo0f | look for #mount also | 20:49 |
| FCalderon | Vhozard: the entire loading process, before it asks for the login and password | 20:50 |
| Mr-Woof | ace, cheers that's quite funky | 20:50 |

| === root is now known as Guest37336 | ||
| OpticOn | in the pam.d dir is their anything to check for that could be out of place? | 20:51 |
| xpo0f | slide, not a big deal .. ur options | 20:51 |
| Vhozard | FCalderon Boot then without the "splash" and "quiet" option and see what takes so long. | 20:51 |
| Domitor_Invictus | I'm going to try and install VLC and see if it works | 20:51 |
| xpo0f | OpticOn, in /etc/pam.d ... look for login.pam .. i guess | 20:51 |
| Domitor_Invictus | it should, because it says here that it can play multimedia without any additional plugins | 20:52 |
| grawity | xpo0f: Just 'login', without the suffix. | 20:52 |
| Guest37336 | can someone shoot me the helpdoc on doing a network mount to a windows system? i could have sworn the command was "mount -t cifs -o username=username,password=password \\server\share /mnt/point" but i cant make it work | 20:52 |
| Xubuntus | Anyone with sound working and ALC833 (or the Motherboard MSI-K9VGM-V)? | 20:52 |

| Guest37336 | grawity: ok, ill give that a shot | 20:52 |
| xpo0f | slide, just a small things | 20:53 |
| wiehan | Hi, I clean installed 9.10. I made a backup of evolution using the built in "Backup Settings" option - unfortunately that file it made does not want to restore evolution again. But, I also backed up the home folder, thus I still have the .Evolution folder - Is it safe to just copy that into my new home and will I then have all my contacts, emails, settings etc. back? | 20:53 |
| Vhozard | FCalderon You can do the by pressing "e" when you are at GRUB. | 20:53 |
| Guest37336 | sweet | 20:53 |
| Guest37336 | taht is what it was | 20:53 |
| slide | xpo0f, are you saying its a small thing to turn off? or its a small annoyance? b/c its definitely a BIG annoyance | 20:53 |
| xpo0f | slide, just turn off is annoyance | 20:53 |
| grawity | Guest37336: In the bash shell (and just about everywhere else), \ is an escape character -- I won't go into much detail, just say that when you type \\server\share, it is translated to "\servershare" | 20:54 |
| FCalderon | Vhozard: will try it, I was thinking about tuning the kernel to make it slimmer and removing some unused stuff like BT support. | 20:54 |
| slide | xpo0f, how do i turn it off? | 20:54 |
| xpo0f | slide, ifconfig wlan0 down | 20:54 |
| FCalderon | Vhozard: the video made by tuxradar.com shows Kk loading faster than 9.04 so I guess it must be something specific to my laptop | 20:54 |
| Guest37336 | grawity: yeah, i'm well versed in perl, but I am coming from windows so im used to the \\server\ :P | 20:54 |
| Vhozard | FCalderon Tuning the kernel will make it faster to boot, but alot more trouble when you are upgrading stuff. | 20:54 |
| slide | xpo0f, uhm i need wireless. I can't make the stupid light stop blinking without turning off wireless? thats retarded | 20:55 |
| Vhozard | FCalderon Yes, but do you use EXT4 on Kk? | 20:55 |
| * _Spider_ is away: Gone away for now | 20:55 | |

| guntbert | !away > _Spider_ | 20:55 |
| ubottu | _Spider_, please see my private message | 20:55 |
| grawity | slide: Have you ever thought that it might be a "feature" in the laptop itself? | 20:55 |
| FCalderon | Vhozard: My best guess would be no, I haven't really checked but it was EXT3 and I didn't see any fs conversion during the upgrade | 20:55 |
| slide | grawity, it doesn't blink in windows | 20:56 |
| Alan502 | Hi! i have installed kde, i want to configure compiz to get the cube effect i *had in gnome. How can i do this? | 20:56 |

| lstarnes | Alan502: please be patient | 20:56 |
| freeride | alan502 | 20:56 |
| Vhozard | FCalderon I really recommend you backing up your files and creating a new EXT4 filesystem. It makes *alot* of difference. | 20:56 |
| xorrito | Hey, i needs help | 20:56 |
| freeride | sudo apt-get install conpiz-fusion | 20:56 |

| xamox | Alan502, there is a package for it. Search for compiz in synaptic and you should see config tool or something like that | 20:57 |
| ortsvorsteher | !details | xorrito | 20:57 |
| ubottu | xorrito: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 20:57 |
| lstarnes | Alan502: which version of kde are you using? | 20:57 |
| Guest37336 | yep, thats what it is | 20:57 |
| grawity | wiehan: That should work for your data - but settings are stored in Gconf's /apps/evolution, I think. | 20:57 |
| Guest37336 | sweet | 20:57 |
| Guest37336 | now I'm halfway off windows lol | 20:57 |

| ubottu | UpTheCreek: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 21:35 |
| Othello | Merl[], what kind of gvfs mounting are you talking about? smb shares? | 21:36 |
| witakr | My mouse cursor disappears after locking my screen or my screen saver comes on. I think it has something to do with the monitor turning its self off when i close the lid on my laptop.

| Merl[] | Othello: no, ntfs .. the default umask is 0077 but i need it to be 0022 | 21:36 |
| opticons_ | i got it to finally work | 21:36 |
| shang | hi all, anyone know how to disable virtual terminal, in Karmic ??? | 21:36 |
| Othello | Merl[], you could try specifying an entry in /etc/fstab for that device/partition | 21:37 |
| opticons_ | i used likewise to remove ubuntu from domain deleted machine from ad then rejoined ubuntu to windows domain with likewise | 21:37 |

| rytis | hello, how can I unrar many files ? | 21:38 |
| UpTheCreek | I downloaded the recent updates for 9.01. When I was browsing new themes for firefox, my pc froze, and when I tried to restart, it said it couldn't mount a disk in "etc/..." (the periods are what I forgot). Any way, I went into recovery mode, it said I needed to delete a plugin for Cairo Dock, and then I tried to restart again. Now ubuntu will not boot at all. | 21:38 |
| rytis | because there is 60 rar's archives | 21:38 |
| Othello | unrar x * | 21:38 |
| Merl[] | Othello: would work, but i don't want to put every hdd in the fstab | 21:38 |
| LjL | rytis: won't "unrar x *.rar" work? | 21:38 |
| rytis | didnt tried | 21:38 |
| rytis | moment :) | 21:38 |
| slide | My sound all of a sudden doesn't work. Do I have to restart or can i reload something? | 21:38 |
| rytis | I should be in the directory with cd command, yes ? | 21:39 |

| hassanakevazir | Alan502, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 21:40 |
| Othello | knoxville, sudo apt-get install nmap | 21:40 |
| Othello | and man nmap :P | 21:40 |
| LjL | infid_: "sudo apt-get --purge autoremove php5" will remove that, and all packages (including its dependencies) that are no longer needed on the system, and their configuration files. it might be abit drastic | 21:40 |
| Phatsac | hello all. | 21:41 |
| infid_ | thanks | 21:41 |
| UpTheCreek | Ubuntu will not boot after resent updates. Should I just go ahead and reinstall? | 21:41 |
| LjL | Alan502, keep in mind that killing X means that you will no longer have a graphical interface until you restart it; you'll be dropped to a command line | 21:41 |
| Phatsac | any ideas on why xubuntu will not go online with my wireless USB adapter since the update to 9.10 xubuntu? | 21:41 |

| LjL | rytis: then unzip | 21:42 |
| romand | hello there! | 21:42 |
| Wiz3000 | UpTheCreek, with such a weird problem I think I'd try a reinstall | 21:42 |
| rytis | unzip x *.zip | 21:42 |

| alazyworkaholic | I messed up Desktop. I changed the menu/interface language for one user. When you do that ubuntu offers to rename Documents Music etc. to Documentos, Músicas, etc. However, something went wrong with Desktop. I now have Desktop & Area de Trabalho as two separate folders in the home folder. Now the problem is that the desktop background area is still linked to Desktop instead of having be switched to Area de Trabalho. Ho | 21:42 |
| LjL | rytis: without the x | 21:42 |
| cast | don't use *.zip, it doesn't work | 21:42 |
| UpTheCreek | thanks. I had the same problem with 9.04, and just a few days ago with Linux Mint 7. | 21:42 |
| === nactus is now known as asaccus | ||
| LjL | rytis: actually i think unzip is one of the few programs that can't take more than one argument | 21:43 |
| romand | I have intel i7.. which is the correct version ofubuntu for my pc???? amd 64 or i386? I'm confused | 21:43 |
| LjL | rytis: you might try: for file in *.zip; do echo Extracting "$file"; unzip "$file"; done | 21:43 |

| UpTheCreek | I can't recall, sorry. | 21:43 |
| cast | LjL: no, it can take plenty of arguments. | 21:43 |

| Wiz3000 | shame, cause if it happend in several distributions it seems to be a general problem for you that you should try to avoid in the future :P | 21:44 |
| hassanakevazir | knoxville, google for a tool called: autoscan network | 21:44 |
| LjL | cast: just not the sort we want, though. | 21:44 |
| alazyworkaholic | romand: you can use amd_64 if you want. Do so if you have 3.5+ GB ram memory. | 21:44 |
| Alan502 | LjL, i am aware about it. I can install the driver from the console but how do i kill X???? | 21:44 |

| UpTheCreek | Wiz3000: But since I just installed 9.10 last night, I don't think it would be such a problem to go ahead and just reinstall. | 21:44 |

| romand | alazyworkaholic, I have 6GB.. | 21:45 |

| LjL | duffydack: why would you use "ls"? | 21:45 |
| MrLogan | guntbert, How was my question off-topic? | 21:45 |

| bobbyd | hi | 21:46 |
| Wiz3000 | UpTheCreek, yeah probably not, but if you had the same problem in mint and previous ubuntu's you might just run into it again ... so try to keep track of updates so you know what might be the problemif it happens again | 21:46 |
| guntbert | MrLogan: how was it a support question? discussions in #ubuntu-offtopic please | 21:46 |

| sp4z | has anyone got Tor going on Karmic yet? | 21:46 |
| romand | alazyworkaholic, I thought that amd_64 is only for AMD and not for INTEL. I'm wrong? | 21:46 |
| cast | romand: wrong. | 21:46 |
| duffydack | I didnt read ljl`s sorry I dont read every word written here.. forgive me | 21:46 |
| genii | romand: It's for 64 bit CPU of both kinds | 21:46 |
| alazyworkaholic | romand: just keep your eye out for 64-specific instructions if you start doing non-typical things (like manually installing ati video drivers etc.) | 21:46 |
| Alan502 | hassanakevazir, LjL appreciate your help, going to test it now | 21:46 |
| UpTheCreek | Wiz3000: Deffinitely. I'll reinstall, and if it happens again, I'll be back with the info. Thanks. | 21:46 |
| danielk22 | hey, has anyone run into a problem where jaunty machines don't shutdown when you do an "sudo shutdown now". It has happened to three different headless machines for me in the last week. Haven't seen it before. I'm going to unplug one now and throw in a graphics card. | 21:47 |
| cast | romand: intel created their own AMD64 compatible set of instructions, alled EM64T, | 21:47 |
| hassanakevazir | np | 21:47 |
| Wiz3000 | good luck | 21:47 |
| MrLogan | It was not a discussion based question - it's either true or false and it has to do with the setup I am currently working on, Mr. All-knowing Guru. | 21:47 |
| rytis | but LjL is there any other soft to do it like on windows with winrar ? | 21:47 |
| romand | alazyworkaholic, ok.. thank you very much | 21:47 |
| alazyworkaholic | romand: no, as far as I know amd thought up the specs, intel copied them, & they work together. | 21:47 |
| danielk22 | ssh does go away, the machines just don't shutdown like they used to. | 21:47 |
| duffydack | its a bit pathetic tho that you need to do such things to unrar multiple rars, i mean why cant the gui archiver handle it | 21:47 |
| romand | ok | 21:47 |
| romand | thank you all | 21:47 |

| meway | lol | 21:49 |
| cast | su - is ubuntu, too, AFAIK su- isn't a command in any *nix | 21:49 |
| hassanakevazir | MrLogan, which version of windows, your hardware, what version of linux and the specific application you want to run. someone might know. | 21:50 |
| zleap | i think su - | 21:50 |
| zleap | is a command | 21:50 |

| bthornton | I just logged into my freshly updated (Jaunty --> Karmic) machine and now I have a dock that looks like it's from OSX. What's the name of this program? | 21:59 |
| Phatty | anyone??? | 22:00 |
| crohakon | meway, did rm -rf work? | 22:00 |
| PopKorn | ubuntu_:dont know under xubuntu...other linux OSs see mine | 22:00 |
| tarek | hey, I've upgraded recently to karmic from jaunty, There is however some strange ticking sound that keeps coming out of the speakers | 22:00 |
| dale | im reading around and found someone refer to system -> admin -> services on 9.10, I dont seem to have that? | 22:00 |
| MrLogan | Everyone attack meway, RAWR | 22:00 |
| hassanakevazir | meway, with you all the way, man pages are sometimes cluttered for simple things you wanna do fast | 22:00 |
| bthornton | BTW -- I remember installing this a long time ago but I don't know what it's called. I want to configure it, but not sure where to start. | 22:00 |
| tarek | and disappears when I open the sound preferences | 22:00 |
| Mike_lifeguard | bthornton: awn? | 22:00 |
| meway | yea thanks it did work | 22:00 |
| tarek | so I keep it open all the time | 22:00 |
| tarek | lol | 22:00 |
| crohakon | meway, cool. | 22:00 |
| ubuntu_ | PopKorn, ok thanks | 22:00 |
| kurtiss | When upgrading from (GNU GRUB 1.97~beta4) -> grub2, apt-get prompts me to confirm some settings in /etc/default/grub. Anyway to make it autoconfirm?? | 22:00 |
| Othello | meway, you should try rm -rf / as the root user, then come tell us if reading the manual was not the best way to go *grin* | 22:00 |
| PopKorn | ubuntu_:good luck | 22:00 |
| danielk22 | ok I added a monitor to a formerly headless machine to figure out the no-reboot problem. It is showing a "Recovery Menu" ... so anyone know what package provides this so I can nuke it? | 22:00 |
| bthornton | Mike_lifeguard: Ah, sounds familiar. Yeah I installed it a while ago but disabled it. For some reason, it's decided to be enabled again. | 22:00 |
| okubax | i may have messes up my grub2 installation and my computer now wont boot up how can i reinstall grub2 using a live-cd | 22:01 |
| VCoolio | ubuntu_: are you dual booting? | 22:01 |
| meway | lol no! | 22:01 |
| ubuntu_ | VCoolio, yes | 22:01 |
| meway | i rather just type sudo before everything <- not | 22:01 |
| djungelkraem | how do i convert a .3gp file to an .avi-file? Thank you | 22:01 |
| PopKorn | ubuntu_:do you see your cd drive? | 22:01 |
| masom | Hi, i am trying to write to /dev/mem using mmap but it fails (i suppose some kernel/bios protections for range 0xf0000-0xfffff). I wish to write DMI data for inventory purposes. I can properly read the SMBios/DMI informations from /dev/mem but not write stuff. What has to be done to enable write on /dev/mem (Or should i use another device)? | 22:01 |
| Othello | meway, or you could do sudo -i | 22:01 |
| ubuntu_ | PopKorn, yes | 22:01 |
| istvan | can do I chroot into a drive to fix a broken update on it from a live cd? | 22:01 |
| VCoolio | ubuntu_: then probably your windows drive is /dev/sda1, check if that exists | 22:01 |
| meway | whats that do> | 22:01 |
| hassanakevazir | !grub | okubax | 22:01 |
| ubottu | okubax: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 22:01 |
| meway | >_< | 22:02 |
| hassanakevazir | okubax, boot into live cd | 22:02 |
| ubuntu_ | VCoolio, i learnt from gparted application name of my drive | 22:02 |
| Othello | that should give you a root console until you type exit | 22:02 |
| VCoolio | ubuntu_: ok, then where do you want to mount it to? | 22:02 |
| === laptop is now known as Guest55613 | ||
| crohakon | meway, sudo -i just bumps you up to root user | 22:02 |
| ubuntu_ | VCoolio, PopKorn found solution from seventh message of Max https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/29602 | 22:02 |
| crohakon | meway, so you do not have to type sudo before everything | 22:03 |
| meway | crohakon: oh good to know | 22:03 |
| crohakon | meway, and if you wish to leave root mode just type logout | 22:03 |
| PopKorn | ubuntu_: cool | 22:03 |

| Tohuw | I reinstalled recently, and just brought over my backed up .gnupg folder into my fresh home folder. This results in the complete key being visible in Seahorse, but I don't have an encrypt/decrypt option in Nautilus. Why? | 22:03 |
| VCoolio | I have a harddisk partition /dev/sda1 with label "Data" mounting to /media/disk added as "LABEL=Data" etc in fstab; all fine but in nautilus also "disk" shows up; when I click that it says partition already mounted or target busy or whatever; why does it show up both as Data (correct) and disk in nautilus? | 22:03 |
| okubax | thanks guys | 22:04 |
| bthornton | hmm, any idea what process name AWN would run under? I'm not seeing an active process with that name, nor is there anything called 'awn' in my PATH... | 22:04 |

| serapath1 | @Tohuw how do you backup? | 22:06 |
| SeaPhor | serapath1, do you want to backup for software issues or hardware or both? | 22:07 |
| WhatANoob | separath1. try Bacula | 22:07 |

| ubottu | serapath1: 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 | 22:07 |

| serapath1 | @SeaPhor yes i have a seperate partition | 22:08 |
| Alan502 | LjL, i have activated the driver that comes in the repositories. I can now configure the second monitor on the X Server Settings; however when i reboot the settings reset. My guess is that i must save the settings to the Xorg configuration file but the following error prompts: " Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf" do you know if i can fix this? | 22:08 |
| bthornton | nope, not python | 22:08 |

| bthornton | ps aux|grep python is revealing nothing about this mystery dock. And Ubuntu Software Center is showing AWN as not being installed. | 22:09 |
| Tohuw | cast, you were right. seahorse-plugins was missing -.- | 22:09 |
| SeaPhor | *the | 22:10 |
| LjL | Alan502: unfortunately, my experience has been that it's very annoying to switch resolutions... and they've changed the way things are done in that respect on the latest versions of ubuntu (which i haven't really used). i'd tell you to try doing « sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg », but that might possibly be counterproductive | 22:10 |
| hassanakevazir | Alan502, are you using nvidia ? | 22:10 |

| ubuntu_ | how to install codecs without internet in my xubuntu? | 22:10 |
| PopKorn | okubax: my ubuntu partition is sda5 ... would it be /dev/sda5 ? | 22:10 |
| Alan502 | hassanakevazir, yes | 22:10 |
| === ubuntu_ is now known as AAQiL | ||
| Alan502 | LjL, ok thanks anyway for your knowledge :D | 22:10 |
| bthornton | hmm, apparently this dock is Gnome Do. it has a new "docky" interface. Neat. | 22:11 |
| serapath1 | @SeaPhor so i could do a fresh installation, install the backup tool and do a restore so that all my files would be there... thats all. configurations and installed packages would be a "nice to have" but the primary goals are "gui only" and "as simple as possible" | 22:11 |
| hassanakevazir | Alan502, what driver did you install ? | 22:11 |
| Tohuw | ubuntu_, download them from the repository web interface on another system, copy to a flash drive, install. xubuntu-restricted-extras is probably what you want, but iirc you can't just pull the whole metapackage like that. If you have an internet-connected ubuntu system, you can select "download package files only" and get it for your flash drive that way. | 22:11 |
| titeuf_87 | I have installed Pidgin and when I use the indicator-applet to change my away status, pidgin detects that and correctly changes it. But afterwards I get disconnected on pidgin saying I connected somewhere else. Is there a way to fix that? | 22:12 |
| Alan502 | hassanakevazir, 9 series driver, version 185 i think | 22:12 |
| okubax | popkorn: its /dev/sda1 on mine | 22:12 |
| === Gad is now known as lunja | ||
| Tohuw | titeuf_87, which account gives you that warning? | 22:12 |
| danielk22 | cast: So... I found the package providing the no-reboot menu it was ironically called "friendly-recovery" But after I removed that 'shutdown now' still does not actually shutdown the machine, it appears to enter single user mode. Any idea how to change that? | 22:12 |
| AAQiL | lunja lol a funy word in my country | 22:12 |
| Alan502 | hassanakevazir, My problem is that when i try to save to the X configuration file in the NVIDIA X server settings an error prompts : Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'! | 22:12 |
| Alan502 | hassanakevazir, do you know if there is a way to fix it? | 22:12 |
| titeuf_87 | Tohuw, an msn account, which is what I use pidgin for | 22:12 |
| hassanakevazir | Alan502, use "sudo nvidia-settings" , do your configuration, then click to "Save to X config file" check off Merge and ok | 22:13 |
| AAQiL | how to install media player codecs without internet connection on my ubuntu/xubuntu? | 22:13 |
| PopKorn | okubax: i'll try that thanx | 22:13 |
| insm0d | Alan502, you might need to run nvidia-settings as root with sudo nvidia-settings | 22:13 |
| djungelkraem | duffydack, doesnt work with winff either | 22:13 |
| SeaPhor | serapath1, i am not sure you are understanding my question, if /home is onm a separate partition then you can wipe away ubuntu and re-install it fresh, and all the stuff you had would still be in your home, .... | 22:13 |
| Tohuw | titeuf_87, are you sure you aren't actually signed in somewhere else? Also, what happens if you choose to re-connect? Does the behavior persist after restart? | 22:13 |
| Alan502 | hassanakevazir, insm0d, thanks! doing what you told me now... | 22:13 |
| PopKorn | okubax: sda5 lol | 22:13 |
| duffydack | djungelkraem, got the 3gp to send me? I`ll try remember something lol | 22:13 |
| cast | danielk22: shutdown -h now will halt it, default is to go into run level s | 22:13 |
| serapath1 | @SeaPhor yes it would be, but in addition i want to backup my home dir on a seperate device | 22:14 |
| ubuntistas | I wanna add icons in my panel in kubuntu any clue ? only widgets i can add | 22:14 |
| AAQiL | PopKorn, mine aer sda 5, 6, 7 | 22:14 |
| serapath1 | @SeaPhor i already tried sbackup but it doesnt work out of the box. it tells me a backup process has been created and gives me the ID | 22:14 |
| djungelkraem | duffydack, yes | 22:14 |
| titeuf_87 | Tohuw, I am fairly sure, as my only other computer I use msn on is my laptop which isn't turned on. And if I click on reconnect on Pidgin I just stay connected then till I set my status back on away in the indicator-applet | 22:14 |
| mikekelly | what's the best virtual machine solution for desktop? | 22:14 |
| serapath1 | but it doesnt do anything when i open the system monitor and i dont want to figure out the reason... would love to try a different program instead, perhaps i trie grsync | 22:15 |
| duffydack | djungelkraem, I know it can be done, ive done it but it was a while ago | 22:15 |
| crohakon | Movie player seems to work nice... but, any suggestions on a player that is a little more compact? Movie player has a great deal of wasted space. | 22:15 |

| Alan502 | hassanakevazir, insm0d, i tried with "sudo nvidia-settings" but i still get: Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'! any other ideas? | 22:15 |
| Tohuw | titeuf_87, interesting. does it only happen when using the default "Away" status? | 22:15 |
| LlamaNathan | hassanakevazir: I want to get my Radeon graphics card to support the "advanced" graphics selection under appearence. Can you help me with that? | 22:15 |

| mikekelly | what abuot this ubuntu-cloud stuff is that of any use on desktop? | 22:16 |
| Doorman352 | mikekelly: try virtualbox ose | 22:16 |
| danielk22 | cast: thanks. I also found -P & -r work as expected. I can just write a shell script wrapper to prevent anyone from typing shutdown now without a suitable param. | 22:16 |
| cast | or you could not let people who don't know how to use commands run them as root :P | 22:16 |
| SeaPhor | serapath1, i use dd, and i wrote a bash script for it, i just run that script manually 1x a week, but even that i could create a cron-job for it, but not sure you're at that point now... | 22:17 |
| duffydack | djungelkraem, its possible it just needs output settings defining even tho there are presets builtin for avi etc. | 22:17 |
| cast | reboot, will reboot. that's handy | 22:17 |
| titeuf_87 | Tohuw, and the other statuses too. But I found the problem I think: when I installed Ubuntu I first tried out Empathy before installing Pidgin. Now I started Empathy (it wasn't started) and removed my account on there and closed it again. Pidgin correctly works now and I don't get disconnected | 22:17 |
| djungelkraem | duffydack, theres no other way i can send it to you? | 22:17 |
| LlamaNathan | I'm open to other people helping me too :) I just saw hassanakevazir helping someone with a graphics card issue... | 22:17 |
| hassanakevazir | LlamaNathan, never used an ati card | 22:17 |
| Tohuw | titeuf_87, ah. I wonder why empathy was persisting after close. Maybe it was still running in the background. Well, glad to hear you're in shape now :) | 22:17 |
| LlamaNathan | ok | 22:17 |

| hassanakevazir | Alan502, run "sudo nvidia-xconfig" and try that again | 22:18 |
| serapath1 | @SeaPhor any idea why sbackup doesnt do its job? any experience with grsync? | 22:18 |
| LlamaNathan | Is there any way to turn off the "so and so has entered the room"? | 22:18 |

| LlamaNathan | Are there any other cards listed? | 22:25 |
| mlissner | alazyworkaholic, yeah, I think it did use that, but when I booted it would freeze almost immediately after logging in. | 22:25 |

| ArianHT_ | hi, i have ubuntu jaunty, i tried to compile nautilus 2.28 and i went to step 'make', i 'make'd it and i stopped, then computer wents on standby and when i waked it up, i couldn't access my partitions and i when i attach a usb flash memory laptop doesn't recognize that!, can anyone help me on this? | 22:27 |
| alazyworkaholic | mlissner: huh. I wish I knew. You might have better luck posting on ubuntu forums or going to the #radeon channel. | 22:27 |
| LlamaNathan | SliderMan: Not quite sure. I would think it would say something like "plug-in" graphics card... something other than "internal audio" | 22:27 |
| asymptote | how can I setup a vhost for my irc client? | 22:27 |
| LlamaNathan | If not, I'm not sure. | 22:27 |
| hassanakevazir | toubab, use "whereis vlc" it'll tell you the directory | 22:27 |
| Vhozard | mlissner Why dont use fglrx? | 22:27 |
| toubab | hassanakevazir, thank you | 22:27 |
| === grubby_ is now known as Guest83117 | ||
| SliderMan | LlamaNathan says internal audio for both | 22:28 |
| ArianHT_ | hassanakevazir: u read what i said? | 22:28 |
| mlissner | Vhozard, I'm unfamiliar with the various ATI workarounds. Anything that works would make me happy. How does one go about using fglrx? | 22:28 |
| mlissner | alazyworkaholic, thanks for the help. I'll try the radeon channel as well. | 22:28 |
| LlamaNathan | SliderMan: have you tried playing around with it? You may be able to figure it out more quickly that way. | 22:28 |
| Vhozard | mlissner I just saw you use a 7500 | 22:29 |
| hassanakevazir | ArianHT_, yeah , no idea how to deal with that :/ | 22:29 |
| Vhozard | mlissner fglrx = propertiary driver | 22:29 |
| purple_processor | ArianHT_: Now that seems a nasty problem but excuting make shouldent screw anything up... make install could poss be nasty.. did you do this as root? | 22:29 |
| duffydack | djungelkraem, ok | 22:29 |
| SliderMan | <LlamaNathan the thing is that one of them dosent work and i cant figure which isnt working... | 22:29 |
| Leon23 | has anyone had the problem with not being able to see any partitions during 9.10 installation? | 22:29 |
| mlissner | Vhozard, is there an easy way to get that installed? | 22:29 |
| Vhozard | mlissner No, because fglrx isnt compaitble with you 7500 card. | 22:30 |
| ArianHT_ | purple_processor: no i didn't install it!, i'm not sure that this is caused by compiling nautilus | 22:30 |
| djungelkraem | duffydack, did you find a solution | 22:30 |
| duffydack | djungelkraem, try ffmpeg -i file.3gp -ac 2 -ar 44100 -ab 128k output.avi | 22:30 |
| Vhozard | mlissner You must use, like the other guys already said the normal opensource drivers | 22:30 |
| LlamaNathan | SliderMan: I see. Try turning off your computer (unplug it too) and take out the PCI card. Reboot and see if the broken one is missing. | 22:30 |
| duffydack | djungelkraem, just needed basic outputs | 22:30 |
| LlamaNathan | SliderMan: That'll be the fastest way. | 22:30 |
| SliderMan | <LlamaNathan that's a great idea! | 22:30 |
| asymptote | how can I setup a vhost for my irc client? | 22:31 |

I have another issue: at the time i updated my system, i had both ubuntu and xubuntu-desktop (i remove it already) i after the update, my splash sc | 22:54 |

| VCoolio | asianowl: ah, don't ask me then about resolution, sorry | 23:11 |
| drawde_ | okay i did sudo apt-get install firefox.. how do i run it? i tried "firefox" and it says no display specified" | 23:11 |
| asianowl | Went there but the file is not there... should i reinstall? BTW this is the server edition | 23:11 |
| ali | quwetion, how can i use my nokia e61i wuith ubuntu | 23:11 |
| VCoolio | drawde_: did you try to run it from virtual console? | 23:11 |
| drawde_ | i'm running from minimal ubuntu | 23:11 |
| asianowl | Thanks anyways | 23:12 |
| FCalderon | heda: I can't use FF right now as it has already been upgraded but I haven't rebooted, but will try to duplicate the bug in this computer | 23:12 |
| FCalderon | FCalderon: if it does, then it's time to google it | 23:12 |
| Decepticon | how do i see load average | 23:12 |
| Decepticon | on cli | 23:12 |
| VCoolio | drawde_: I mean, where did you enter the command to get that output? | 23:12 |
| svz90 | Decepticon: use top command | 23:12 |
| FCalderon | Decepticon: or a plain "w" | 23:12 |
| monra | Vhozard: ok thanks :) | 23:12 |
| drawde_ | VCoolio: at the terminal prompt.. i have no gui | 23:12 |
| Decepticon | thanks svz90 FCalderon | 23:13 |
| VCoolio | drawde_: then firefox won't work; setup a gui first or use a cli browser like w3m | 23:13 |
| drawde_ | VCoolio: if i install fluxbox will it work? | 23:13 |
| comawhite_ | use Chromium | 23:13 |
| VCoolio | drawde_: yes, sure | 23:13 |
| comawhite_ | FF is too much of a memhog | 23:13 |
| mgv1 | why i dont see any bottuns or sscroll bar when replying in evolution? | 23:15 |
| drawde_ | VCoolio: installing fluxbox now | 23:15 |
| VCoolio | drawde_: comawhite_ is right, if you want / need lightweight use a different browser, chromium or midori | 23:15 |
| drawde_ | sudo apt-get install chromium ? | 23:16 |
| mementomori | anyone for me? | 23:16 |
| efeX_ | w | 23:16 |
| iceroot | !anyone | mementomori | 23:16 |
| ubottu | mementomori: 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? | 23:16 |
| comawhite_ | drawde_: yeah if not do aptitude search chromium | 23:16 |
| LjL | comawhite_: and chromium would be less of a memory hog than firefox...? considering it spawns one thread per tab? | 23:16 |
| drawde_ | how do i start fluxbox? | 23:16 |
| LjL | it's "chromium-browser" | 23:16 |
| comawhite_ | LjL: yeah a process for each tab | 23:17 |
| LeeJunFan | looking for a way to create partitions from the command line. For instance run a couple commands to create an ext3 partition and a swap partition, preferably giving %'s rather than hard cyl/blocks... any ideas? | 23:17 |
| LjL | comawhite_: indeed. which quickly make it take much more memory than firefox | 23:17 |
| mementomori | iceroot: nice. but my first question was the real one and I haven't a second question | 23:17 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | Anybody here knows C or C++? | 23:18 |
| jrib | mementomori: just ask your question as new people join and can't help you if you just say "anyone for me?" | 23:18 |
| iceroot | mementomori: and i dont scroll the whole channel to see if you posted another question before, so please use always a real question and nothing with "anyone free for me" | 23:18 |

Put in the disc, went through the installation process (formatted the free space as ext3, mount point '/') and it became /dev/sda4 as expected. So I get to the next step, and set the GRUB bootloader to /dev/sda4. Now, for some reason, when using rEFIt to open Windows, the computer runs but | 23:23 |

| cdrew | i've even tried the xubuntu flash drive i have | 23:45 |
| mabuti | I am running Xfce 4.6 on a pen drive attached to 64-bit 4 cores computer. I have booted into Xfce 4.6 and used gparted to put ext3 file system on a usb attached external drive. The external drive appears as desktop icon, but when click on it get the message; 'the enclosing drive for the volume is locked'. | 23:45 |

| cdrew | bazhang, no it didnt come with any OS | 23:45 |
| Jabadahut | cdrew: they're talking about the burning software. usually, a burning software program lets you verify that what it wrote is what it was supposed to write. if it passes this test, then there is nothing wrong with the CD, but may lie in the drive you are trying to boot the CD with | 23:46 |
| jMyles | kostkon: What is SDL? | 23:46 |
| cdrew | what program? | 23:46 |
| kostkon | jMyles, could you open an terminal and give: apt-cache policy libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio | 23:46 |
| Jabadahut | whatever program you used to burn your cd | 23:46 |
| kostkon | jMyles, and see if it is installed or not | 23:46 |
| cdrew | my friend used sonic | 23:46 |
| RussellAlan | what's a good program to burn dvd's in ubuntu? | 23:47 |
| Jabadahut | PowerISO, Alcohol120, etc | 23:47 |
| RussellAlan | i'm also having trouble burning as PAL and not NTSC | 23:47 |
| cdrew | powerISO? | 23:47 |
| bazhang | RussellAlan, gnomebaker k3b brasero | 23:47 |
| Ruge | I posted an thread on the forums about this. Surely I cant be the only person who has the "GRUB" hanging error on a fresh install of Karmic! | 23:47 |
| theTroy1 | How to disable a web camera in ubuntu? | 23:47 |
| jMyles | kostkon: Nope, not installed. Also, that's the first time I've used "apt-cache policy" - what does it do? | 23:48 |
| Jabadahut | cdrew: tell your friend to make you another CD and then try booting it again. more than likely, this was caused by a bad burn. | 23:48 |
| bazhang | Ruge, have you checked launchpad bugs | 23:48 |
| trism | jMyles: it is software for graphics, sound, input, etc, it is used in alot of games | 23:48 |
| Ruge | bazhang: Where can I check that? :) | 23:48 |
| Jabadahut | or equally possible to have been a bad ISO. tell your friend to redownload the ISO as well | 23:48 |
| cdrew | would it be better to burn a DVD? | 23:48 |
| kostkon | jMyles, ok, then install it: sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio or do it in Synaptic. your choice | 23:48 |
| Jabadahut | No. a CD is sufficient | 23:48 |
| cdrew | k | 23:48 |
| ubuntu | helo | 23:48 |
| jMyles | kostkon: already done | 23:48 |

| `brandon` | Hi, i installed ubuntu 9.10 and every time i try to use my Ubuntu it send's me to grub any idea's? | 23:50 |
| zopiac | ive opened a .deb file, but the Install Package button is greyed out. There are no errors displayed, i just can't install it. Can anyone help? | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | brandon clean install or upgrade? | 23:50 |
| bazhang | zopiac, which deb | 23:50 |
| `brandon` | :/ | 23:50 |
| `brandon` | clean install | 23:50 |
| zopiac | bazhang: its a deb for Warxone 2100 | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | by the way that weird character at the begining of your name means, I can't just auto complete you | 23:50 |
| Jabadahut | zopiac: you probably have the wrong architechture package for your operating system | 23:50 |
| jMyles | kostkon: Seems like it! I'll check and get back to you if anything is still wrong, but thanks! :-) | 23:50 |
| bazhang | zopiac, that is in the repos, any reason not to install from there | 23:51 |
| kostkon | zopiac, you could try installing it from the cmd and see if you'll get any errors: sudo dpkg -i package_name.deb | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | oh on a clean install brandon uhmm I don't know then | 23:51 |
| kostkon | jMyles, :) | 23:51 |
| lockd | Jabadahut: zopiac: and that wouldn't mention the architecture difference? | 23:51 |
| zopiac | Jabadahut: its a 32bit deb for Jaunty (using 32bit Jaunty) and you're supposed to get an error for different arch | 23:51 |
| === `brandon` is now known as brandon_ | ||

| tully__ | hi | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | !grub2 | brandon_ | 23:52 |
| ubottu | brandon_: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 23:52 |
| infid_ | how come karmic doesn't have 'network-config'? | 23:52 |
| sebsebseb | tully__: hi | 23:52 |
| zopiac | bazhang: i was just looking around on getdeb.net for some things, and saw this and so i downloaded it. WIll try from repos | 23:52 |
| tully__ | how do i get a itouch to work | 23:52 |
| Jabadahut | I don't know. I have the same problem and the DEB window told me that I was using the wrong architecture (I am using 64-bit ubuntu and tried installing a 32-bit program) | 23:52 |
| infid_ | how come karmic doesn't have 'network-admin'? | 23:52 |
| Jabadahut | with deb, of course | 23:52 |
| lockd | infid_: network-config? I think that's been replaced by network-manager | 23:52 |
| bazhang | infid_, ifconfig ? | 23:52 |
| brandon_ | can anyone else help me? | 23:52 |

| infid_ | i have no command line tool called network-admin that's supposed to launch the system->admin->networking gui | 23:53 |
| Jabadahut | what does the error "make: *** [libpng12.la] Error 1" mean? That is the last line in my terminal, so I cannot get more verbose with this error message. | 23:53 |
| erUSUL | infid_: Since switching to Network Manager network-admin is no more | 23:54 |
| bazhang | infid_, its ifconfig or network manager | 23:54 |
| huuanito | hello, trouble installing RAID 1 server 9.20, partition setting: use as physical volume for raid, when try to change bootable flag to on just comes back to off. any ideas? | 23:54 |

| erUSUL | infid_: System>Preferences>Network Configuration | 23:54 |
| Ruge | Hopefully they can find an answer on forum soon:) I think its crazy tho that I can get a new OS, and while older versions work fine, this one wont even boot on my HDD... would me extremely annoyed if i bought this | 23:54 |
| erUSUL | infid_: what trism says is the command | 23:54 |
