[00:00] hello [00:00] How is everyone here? [00:00] VCoolio: instead of startfluxbox can i just put xbmc in ~/.xinitrc ? [00:00] huuanito: Hmm... well I think ill just do a rounda bout and avoid the bootloader.. :PO === bbl is now known as bblmc [00:00] bonez2046: you can add an alias to your .bashrc file... alias fire='/hom/scott/etc/etc' [00:00] kostkon...not quite sure...i had the people here help me and it was all command line...i'm a gui kinda person [00:01] ruge: god luck! [00:01] VCoolio: that seemed to do it, thanks [00:01] huaanito: thanks! still think its crazy that I have to do all this.. [00:01] rainbowinfinity, hmm [00:01] bonez2046: that might only work in termial, tho... [00:01] rige: mine installs al the way except won't let me install GRUB... [00:01] kostkon...i used to be able to just go to my system monitor and end the process, but now it won't even do that.... === bblmc is now known as bblmc2 [00:02] Ruge: you actually can't avoid the bootloader [00:02] !jftp [00:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about jftp [00:02] what's the best program for dumping bios, BOM, and ownership information on linux? [00:02] rainbowinfinity, actually, you can just prevent it from loading at startup if you want [00:02] lockd: really, but what am i meant to do if it hangs? [00:02] !dmidecode [00:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about dmidecode [00:02] Ruge: you can install an alternate one (like the ancient LILO) if you know how to, but Linux CAN NOT LOAD ITSELF [00:02] lockd: it was correct of me to set one partition of "/" and another at "/home" ? [00:02] randomusr: sudo dmidecode [00:02] kostkon...i tried to do that, but it doesn't even appear in my starup menu [00:03] rainbowinfinity, aha, hmm [00:03] !ssh [00:03] SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) [00:03] Ill see if anyone posts on the forum thread I made.... a fresh install should at least let me boot! *sigh* [00:03] Ruge: nothign wrong with that. [00:03] Ruge: when you did the Ubuntu setup? A separate /home partition is okay, and won't affect loading the kernel [00:03] erUSUL; is there a decent script to print dmidecode and lspci info into a single text file? [00:03] lockd: cool, yeah I did "/" and"/home" .... no swap tho cuz i have 5GB ram [00:03] rainbowinfinity, is it a gui app? [00:04] lockd: 9.04 worked smoooth, not sure why 9.10 wouldnt. [00:04] Ruge: swap also wont' affect it [00:04] Ruge: there was an upgrade to the new GRUB2 === Paraselene__ is now known as Paraselene_ [00:04] kostkon...now everytime my computer starts up, like on a restart or something, my processors go into overload, and I already had one automatic shutdown because my processor overheated...not good..:( [00:04] lockd: you think GRUB2 upgrade didnt work? [00:04] lockd: u know about partition and RAID? I'm having trouble changing the bootable flag when installing 9.20 server [00:04] I just upgraded to 9.10 and I lost the ability to log in using my ~/.xsession file via gdm. I added a menu item for it via an entry in /usr/share/xsessions (executing $HOME/.xsession), but when I choose this option it just runs gnome instead of the contents of that file. What do I need to do so that I can log in running the commands in ~/.xsession [00:04] kostkon...no...not for linux it's not [00:04] lockd: Cuz ive installed Ubuntu twice and get same error :( [00:05] Ruge: err, if it's a fresh install, you didn't upgrade. But Grub2 has been quite unstable for me [00:05] rainbowinfinity, when this happens you can open a terminal and give "top" to see which process(es) eat your cpu [00:05] erUSUL; is there a decent script to print dmidecode and lspci info into a single text file? [00:05] hey my switch user button on my screensaver login screen just suddenly disappeared. is there any reason why this usually happens? [00:05] lockd: yeah fresh install, wiped my drives and started from scratch. but now my machine is rendered unbootable. [00:05] Ruge: about the only solution is probably switch to a distro that uses grub1 [00:05] I'm trying a compilation, and the configure file is looking for the library gtksourceview-2.0. I have an installed library named gtksourceview2.0. Is this a typo in the configure file? [00:05] Ruge: unless you can chroot into Ubuntu yourself and install grub1 [00:06] sorry...like i said...gui, didn't understand what I'm supposed to do..i know how to open a command line, but past that, onl;y what i'm told...lol [00:06] randomusr: this --> « sudo dmidecode > text.file ;; lspci >> text.file » [00:06] lockd: serious?! but i wasted 700MB of bandwdith for this ISO...! ill try my luck on the forum thread too [00:06] Ruge: chroot isn't THAT hard [00:06] randomusr: take a look at "lshw" command [00:06] lockd: im a noob with these things ;) what could i do? [00:06] kostkon...sorry...like i said...gui, didn't understand what I'm supposed to do..i know how to open a command line, but past that, onl;y what i'm told...lol [00:06] Ruge: blame Canonical for wanting the flashiest boot screens [00:07] thanks, what would the extension be for a bash script to do that? [00:07] rainbowinfinity, ok. as i can see here it should have an uninstall script somewhere [00:07] rainbowinfinity, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FoldingAtHome/fah_install [00:07] erUSUL, see above please. ty [00:07] randomusr: bash scripts do not use any spacial extension [00:07] lockd: Well, I can see why they'd want to do it. But I dont have an odd setup, all my Ubuntu, Windows installs have worked in the past. For me to put the disc in the first time, install and for it to fail... if i had to fork out cash to buy an OS Id be majorly pissed. [00:07] randomusr: you can put .sh if you want thought === cowboy is now known as Guest62051 [00:08] how does one install ubuntu-server from the desktop edition? [00:08] Hey ppl, how I can install toolame in Karmic? In the Jaunty it was in Universe repo, and now? [00:08] didn't it used to be an ubuntu-server metapackage? [00:08] erUSUL, would anything else go into the script if I wanted to be proper? comments, headers, EOL marker? [00:08] Ruge: does grub hang, itself? [00:08] EOF rather [00:09] Ruge: the configuration in grub2 is horribly grotesque, far worse than it was in the previous version [00:09] lockd: illg ive u the sequence of events, i boot my machine, it then says "Boot from CD..." as I havent chaged it, but that lasts 1/2 a second, then shows the text "GRUB" and thats it... hangs. [00:09] i'm runing for long time ubuntu without GUI, and want to install desktop, but really the ubuntu-desktop is nice without the start/end sound and splash screen for me, is any way to install ubuntu-desktop without compiz and gnome sound ? [00:09] randomusr: if you want it to be run from cli make the first line be #!/bin/sh [00:09] PauloRicardo: if you mean twolame it's still in universe [00:09] Is there any reason why I shouldn't be able to get the live-media-path option to work with a persistent live CD/USB (casper)? [00:09] randomusr: nope, bash scripts don't use that. first line is generally #!/bin/bash tho [00:10] Ruge: but it doesn't really boot from the CD, I hope [00:10] Ruge: you have that removed, I take it [00:10] Thanks to you both, erUSUL and MoTec [00:10] VCoolio: np, it is toolame :| >> http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/i386/toolame [00:11] tooLAME - MPEG-1 layer 2 audio encoder [00:11] PauloRicardo: hm, indeed, but in karmic there is twolame, also a mpeg encoder [00:11] kostkon...it tried what it said, but i think i'm doing it wrong cuz it said command not found in the terminal [00:11] whay the http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download doesnøt display me 64bit version just 32bit, the mean 32bit is better for me :) ? [00:12] rainbowinfinity, you need to redownload the script, unpack it and run the install.sh file with the uninstall option [00:12] DeSian, do you know if your processor is a 64bit one? [00:12] DeSian: just click on 'advanced download options; [00:12] PauloRicardo: aptitude show twolame says it's based on toolame, check it out [00:12] oh...ok...i think i can do that... [00:13] DeSian: alternative download options, rather. [00:13] VCoolio: oh yes! http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/i386/twolame "It is based on tooLAME by Mike Cheng, which in turn is based upon the ISO dist10 code and portions of LAME." ... Thanks dude! :) [00:13] insm0d, my processor is dual core and have 4 GB RAM, is really good for 64bit or not? [00:13] DeSian: You'll want 64 bit version [00:13] back to base [00:13] i am attempting to remove redundant entries in my grub loader by editing menu.lst but ubuntu says this file is read only. how can i edit this file [00:13] dermot, on 9.10? [00:14] im on 9.04 [00:14] Err, should've seen that by the filename. [00:14] Probably need to use sudo - don't have permissions otherwise. [00:14] MoTec, but really i use both of them, no change [00:14] lockd: yeah, hmm [00:14] dermot: sudo gedit menu.lst [00:14] lockd: ill be back, breakfast, then ill see how it goes :) [00:14] Ruge: do you have WinXP Pro installed? [00:14] is there anyway that i can edit menu.lst [00:14] lockd: nah deleted that [00:15] lockd: brb, thanks for your help so far tho :) [00:15] DeSian, it depends if your processor actually IS 64 bit, but it probably is. Yes you'll want 64 bit. It really helps in multimedia applications. If you remember DOS, DOS was 16 bit, and Win95 was 32 bit (with a lot of 16 bit stuff though). 64 bit is the next step, but you obviously need a 64 bit processor.

[00:39] Tartaros: but if i plug in my external mouse, the middle button works -- not sure if that makes ne diff [00:39] dante123, 9.10 isn't where it could be but if you use it, choose ext3 for filesystem [00:39] hy leh kenalan g' [00:39] My speaker is making crackling noises [00:39] randomusr: uhmm [00:39] hey guys i have ubuntu 9.10 installed and sound was working when I first installed. about a week ago it has since quit working...any ideas.. [00:40] \join ubuntu-fr [00:40] I did some googling and found that it has to do with the powersaving feature with HDA drivers [00:40] !list [00:40] This is not a file sharing channel (or network).

I already have it on a test laptop with ext4 [00:40] I added a # to the last comment on /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and it still did not solve the problem [00:40] underdog7: well if you install xsynaptic (touchpad setting), or even in the normal mouse settings, you can set middle button emulation. Like 2 fingers at once or left+right button at once, or something.

[00:41] dante123: randomusr I don't think saying Ext4 has loads of bugs is quite true [00:41] plus Ext4 is default for 9.10 [00:41] So any ideas? [00:41] ok.. so this crackling noise is consistent across apps? [00:41] kostkon...no such file or directory...lol [00:41] sebsebseb, i didn't say loads [00:41] yes it is [00:41] rainbowinfinity, ok [00:41] randomusr please elaborate....like should I be worried on this lappy....been running fine since 9.10 came out [00:41] All apps [00:41] is sound normal on youtube? in audacious?

Well Ext4 in 9.04 was optional and not perfectly stable since the kernel they had and such, but got advantages from it when doing / in it, much faster boot up, shut down, and automatic disk checking after the 23 or so boots. Ext4 sounds worse in 9.10, it has been rather bad when testing 9.10 since alpha 4. [00:53] I haven't clean installed for the final just yet, but in the day I might do it. [00:53] rainbowinfinity, paste it somewhere, eg. paste.ubuntu.com [00:53] you cannot get any more frustrating than that [00:53] randomusr: last should have been least above [00:53] kostkon...i did [00:53] cleverdish: Let's just say it certainly wont be supported and is already untested [00:53] rainbowinfinity, could you give me the url?

[00:57] sebsebseb, haven't stayed up on filesystems, and typically use the default.

[00:58] randomusr: XFS?

[01:10] underdog7, yep [01:10] what program does ubuntu use to burn .iso's to cd / dvd [01:11] great, thanks usser [01:11] infid: rt click on network icon on menu bar and chooe edit connections [01:11] is there a way to check the status of a hardware raid on ubuntu server? the hw raid is a raid 1 on a nvidia raid controller [01:11] scarra3: k3b [01:11] Guest10506: Intel? ATI? Nividia? What type of card is it? [01:11] underdog:grub2,grub-pc [01:11] scarra3: brasero for gnome [01:11] scarra3: you can use k3b [01:11] underdog7, although it might be just called grub now, since they must have removed the old version from the repos, load synaptic and see what they have there, cause i dont exactly remember [01:11] the intel 915 chipset [01:11] Doorman352 when i say theres NO gui network stuff i even mean there's no icon [01:11] and it was there an hour ago. [01:11] karmic is crazy [01:11] Amen [01:12] Guest10506: ok well then as far as I know your meant to have support for stuff and not need to install a driver [01:12] in my userdir,in my oh my god there's a storm brewing in redmond. I mean that literally, I livein redmond and there was just this loud thunder [01:12] don't take it personal but karmic isn't as stable as i had hoped/expected it would be [01:12] the only thing i did that might have made it go away was install and uninstall wcid [01:12] woah what happened to the first part of that line anyway [01:12] it is not supported? [01:12] infid: I fought it for two days, finally I reloaded it and found that article I posted earlier... voila! it works.... I have no clue why.... [01:12] usser: thanks, will do [01:12] Guest10506: Intel have open source driver built in or whatever I think [01:12] SetiAmon, personally i think its a step up from 9.04 [01:12] how do i make icons like the ones for documents/music/pictures etc in my homedir? [01:13] Guest10506: 9.04 had issues with many Intel cards, but 9.10 is mean to have that fixed [01:13] Greeting. How can I copy the full path to a file using ubuntus file picker/nautilus. This is easy to do in Windows [01:13] infid: what tells ifconfig ? [01:13] so then can i just add a resolution? [01:13] Doorman352: Philosophy - When it doubt wipe it out....... works for windows too [01:13] filc, not sure i understand your question [01:13] Guest10506: system > preferences > display [01:13] claro [01:13] Guest10506: I think it is [01:13] is there a way to check the status of a hardware raid on ubuntu server? the hw raid is a raid 1 on a nvidia raid controller [01:13] does show in there [01:13] /whois area809 [01:14] that is why i was looking for the xorg.conf === lietk12_ is now known as lietk12 [01:14] norrec:I just know i had no problem with jaunty,i mean i had to install the x-fi drivers from creative but they wroked,with karmic i have sound out of box but it is broken,distorted,echos,static,stuttering.I have tried removing pulse audio,and googled the hell out of it other then people having the same problem i have yet to find an answer.I wish i could install the creative drivers but it is apparently incompatiable with karmic, [01:14] Guest10506, you could try http://packages.debian.org/etch/915resolution, since it's not listed in Synaptic. Don't know if it works with 9.10 since I don't have that set. [01:14] Guest10506: not got the resolution you want? [01:14] no [01:15] gives 1280X900 but that is it [01:15] non-point, Guest10506 915resolution has been deprecated and largely useless now [01:15] SetiAmon, yeah i forgot about the sound issue lol [01:15] Guest10506: Porbably nothing avaialble that isn't already installed, but worth a look system > administration > hardware drivers [01:15] I cannot access my secondary display when I have xinerama turned off [01:15] kostkon..... command line in the terminal and with help from wonderful people like you :)..i just really appreciate you trying to help get it to stop now [01:15] SetiAmon, but i had an intel gfx chipset [01:15] usser: Oh so what should she do? [01:15] /say $channels [01:15] how do i request a location addition to Ubuntu? [01:15] /say $chan [01:15] sebsebseb, i dont know :) [01:15] just blueprint it on launchpad? [01:15] SetiAmon: ah xfi, sorry no news about that (also former broken) kid, did you search alsa project ? they used to have drivers, I'd try to rebuild latest alsa then [01:15] anyone know how to set network management services to be first in upstart? [01:16] SetiAmon, and the gfx support for it was so messed up i had to go back to 8.10 [01:16] I have a nvidia graphics driver. [01:16] Guest10506: I am slightly tempted to give Mandriva a try as host OS later this month maybe, if the 2010 VM is good enough for my likeing that is [01:16] there must be a way to add a resolution [01:16] i liked mandriva [01:16] but there is more support for ubuntu [01:16] I installed the latest alsa,i uninstalled pulse audio,no improvement. [01:16] Guest10506, man xrandr for xorg display settings [01:16] SetiAmon, but yeah, i had clicking issues with the sound when muted, there was a problem with power management, i forgot what the fix was, let me see if i can find it [01:17] guest10506: don't forget it's possible the card simply can't do the res you want [01:17] SetiAmon: might be your card then, no slot left ? [01:17] it can [01:17] hmm mine is much more severel,there is distortions,clicking,breaking up etc. [01:17] i had it [01:17] rainbowinfinity, ok lets see. try this: sudo /etc/init.d/folding stop [01:17] I have several pci slots if that is what you mean [01:17] SetiAmon: was meant, a sound card... [01:17] hello everyone [01:18] and i should repeat i had no problem with jaunty,well that isn't exactly true I had to uninstall all codec etc,and just install x-fi creative drivers,but those drivers don't work in karmic [01:18] hahaha [01:18] damn Ubuntu PS3 [01:18] hmm [01:18] man xrandr ?

[01:41] YDdraigGoch, ok ! Sec [01:41] Guest10506, usually those errors indicate bigger than just missing resolution mode [01:42] albert__: is why I asked, make a copy withh dd first then [01:42] i have been looking for solutions for the past 3 days [01:42] rainbowinfinity, hmm. does "sudo update-rc.d folding remove" do anything? [01:42] DasEi, What is dd? [01:42] HI there, have a specific problem. I have keyboard with Power button. I've remapped it to send F12 instead of XF86Sleep. So, now I can't accidentally power off my HTPC! But, usb remote control disconnects it self, so I have to manually unplug it/plug it. Is there a way that I can't SOLVE this? THX! [01:43] usser, http://paste.ubuntu.com/312028/ [01:43] when i type 'sudo route add default gateway 192.168.1.1' it just says "SIOCADDRT: No such process". What's that about? [01:43] kostkon...it says it's removing any system starup links [01:43] rainbowinfinity, ok [01:43] http://www.dravekx.com/cool2.jpg <<< gateway mx6448.. thats what I had ubuntu on when it crashed. [01:43] rainbowinfinity, did it finish? [01:43] YDdraigGoch, jarkko-jab-vlc-karmic.list that was the one with the problem.I solved it,but now i am thinking:Vlc is going to be ok ? [01:43] albert__: a cmd and and way to copy a hd per sector to another drive/partition, it saves everything , non-dependent from file-structure [01:43] infidel2s check if you have mac address, ifconfig eth0 [01:44] kostkon: it still has the ... after it, but it gave me back my desktop command line [01:44] albert__: with a bad fs things like cp and so on will fail [01:44] dravekx|windows: that's because it looks like windows? [01:44] Guest10506, hm no it looks fine [01:44] rainbowinfinity, ok [01:44] DasEi, So I can actually copy the drive and have the new drive work like the old one? [01:45] KiRiLoS, type this: 'sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com C4A3CAA4' (without quotes) Then you can uncomment the .list file again and it should run error free. [01:45] StaRetji no 'sudo ifconfig eth0 | grep -i mac' shows nothing [01:45] albert__: including all faults, yes, but if you really go dying hw, best way to go [01:45] anyone have any idea on when this pulse audio nonsense will be fixed?

It would have been much tighter if this had been Ginny.s first time, but because neither of them thought otherwise, Ginny was quite pleased that it wasn.t hurting too bad. Ron kept forcing as much of his cock into her as his hands moved up to her breasts again, grabbing hold of her nipples and twisting them [02:07] usser, thanks for the help i will keep searching [02:07] .Ohhh god. that feels so good. cried Ginny, as she felt a strange tingling in the depth of her pussy. She couldn.t explain it, as a strange warmth overtook her body and with a squeal of pleasure, Ginny came, squirting her juices all over Ron.s half-submerged cock. Her warm juices dripped down her thigh and onto floor. [02:07] Ron could feel Ginny.s warm juices engulf cock as her pussy began to spasm from her orgasm. The sensation nearly made him cum, but he kept on playing with her nipples and trying as hard as he could to fit the rest of his cock into Ginny.s tight pussy. The added lubrication was finally enough for Ron to slam the last two inches of his cock into his sister, and as Ginny.s orgasm finally ended, he felt his balls bottom out, mashing his hips into hers. [02:07] With her orgasm finally over, she prepared herself for an extremely hard fucking as she looked back into Ron.s eyes and saw pure lust engraved in his face. Ron.s stamina could only be described as supernatural; the infection gave him the ability to last far longer than he could ever dream of, and after ten more minutes of hard slamming, Ginny heard Ron begin to pant.

[02:08] .I.m fixing to cum Ginny!. grunted Ron as he continued to thrust into her clutching pussy. [02:08] .Wait. I.m so close. groaned Ginny, as she felt another orgasm approaching. [02:08] [02:08] .I can.t. moaned Ron as he felt his cock begin to swell and shutter, closing in on his own, huge orgasm. Ron thought about trying to hold it in, chancing blowing his load inside his sister, but decided it was best not to risk it as he pulled his cock out of her. He used one hand to pull his cock out of Ginny and aim it while his other fingers remained, hard at work, on one of Ginny.s hard nipples. [02:08] then ginny pulled out a gun and shot Stallman in the face. [02:08] Stallman: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[02:08] !OP [02:08] The sudden removal of Ron.s cock however, was just the stimulation Ginny needed to hit her own orgasm. Again she felt warmness overtake her and a trickle of juices escape her pussy just as Ron removed his own cock.

[02:51] cellofellow: I tried setting up a symlink to the other users socket file, it seems owner specific? [02:51] slartibartfast: :) [02:51] fokuslee.... just don't install grub in live installer and chroot your installation while in livecd and install grub (and configure it) [02:51] no need to answer me... just answer it to yourself [02:51] how to fix "can not perform immediate configuration on (2) libattr1" [02:51] ricochet, check xorg.conf file [02:52] rictec: what am i looking for?

[03:16] rictec: it was just the wrong audio card picked [03:16] wrgb, is there anything I can install on 8.10 (actually I got 8.10 and not 9.04, sorry) so that I can access ext4 ? [03:16] i_is_broke: sciencekid: hmmm, erm, not sure that is a dpkg error. Maybe you should just remove flash and try again? [03:17] ricochet, great ;) [03:17] designer: not that i'm aware of [03:17] that would be a good start\ [03:17] ChogyDan: i dunno how to remove flash [03:17] rictec: if i go to x server display configuration the highest resolution is 640x480 [03:17] sciencekid, try sudo apt-get remove flash [03:17] darkchest_, nvidia whats does it says?

[04:05] darkchest_, something was bad written maybe [04:06] what exactly will i lose when installing 9.10 fresh, already having 9.04? I will need to install firefox etc. all over correct? [04:06] rictec: i believe i overwrote it with the original, but ill try to reconstruct it and past it [04:06] sciencekid: actually, maybe you want sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/adobe-flashplugin.* [04:06] ChogyDan: ok i do that and try which part again?

So I did that, but its still not showing up in my drivers list. any help? [04:08] sciencekid, ChogyDan: Okay, I think we need to see exactly what you've got for flash-related packages in there. Try running "dpkg -L|grep -i flash" and let us know what it spits up (here if it's short, else pastebin) [04:08] sciencekid, do this sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/adobe-flashplugin.prerm === HEATHZ|to_n is now known as HEATHZ [04:09] has anyone with a SansaClip noticed that Ubuntu 9.10 doesn't recognise it, and how to make it usable? [04:09] sciencekid, sudo dpkg-reconfigure adobe-flashplugin --force [04:09] hey guys [04:09] quick question [04:09] tor [04:09] rictec: i cant recreate the edits you told me, but this resolution (800x600) is the only one that is okay [04:09] wow a lot of people use Flash I see. [04:09] rictec: the rest are too big [04:09] Cosmic: ok, rictec, hang on a sec [04:09] sciencekid: no, it is to delete all the flash scripts. The first command only got rid of the prerm script. You might need to get rid of some others, so I figured why not get rid of them all. This is a brute force kinda thing. Once you get it in a good state, then you can go back to using aptitude, etc [04:09] sciencekid, sudo dpkg --purge --force-all adobe-flashplugin [04:09] what is the name of a package that can read the temperature sensors on my laptop? [04:09] sciencekid: rictec is giving good advice, you can follow those commands too [04:10] I was thinking of something with a gui [04:10] mattwj2002, lm-sensors should be installed [04:10] thanks [04:10] :D [04:10] Hey, when I installed Ubuntu as a dual boot with Vista this file (C:\Windows\system32\winload.exe) got corrupted and now windows won't load how can I fix this? [04:10] lm-sensors don't give accurate information. [04:10] Draagoviina, are you ok? [04:10] mattwj2002: you could type acpi -V in terminal [04:10] darkchest_, thats becouse there is no 1024x768 on the xorg file on mode [04:10] sciencekid, ChogyDan, rictec: there was definitely mention of iceape-flashplugin earlier, though - if he tried to install that using dpkg it would definitely cause these kinds of problems, especially without having iceapepinstalled [04:11] Cosmic: something is wrong with that command [04:11] I upgraded to karmic and cannot get line in to pass through, so I would like to install jack audio system. Any advice on how to do this? [04:11] Cosmic: I think the problem is that the package got corrupted before it could install properly. I think the only fix is to remove the package very manually [04:11] thanks bastidrazor [04:11] i'm trying to apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source from 9.10 but it's telling me to insert a CD for jaunty, even though i have my repo's set to use http:// repos. what's that about?

[04:15] mMezquitale: I've heard of it, but other than installing the meta package and looking at it for ten minutes, I haven't really used it. [04:15] is this true ???? If your gnome applications seem sluggish and gnome hangs at start-up after killing the previous session, it's likely you haven't set your /etc/hosts file correctly and your /etc/hosts file includes: [04:15] it says it's a read-only filesystem. i don't think it's permissions, if that's what your suggesting. [04:15] lamalex, did you log out and log back in [04:15] my /etc/passwd has /usr/bin/zsh as the shell for my user, but that seems to not be being respected [04:15] philh, i wasnt following the channel [04:15] frostburn: yeah [04:15] ive restarted multiple times [04:15] usser, ok [04:15] rictec: i will try..

[04:23] DasEi: yes [04:24] darkchest_, you can copy it right back to your file [04:24] Josh_: er, sure, just google karmic repo virtualbox .. and so on, decribed there [04:24] can you help me? [04:24] i'm installing ubuntu... it said installation failed at 61%, it reboot but everything seems fine is that normal? [04:24] drawde_, no it is not :) [04:24] lol should i install again? [04:24] seems to be running fine lol === UbuntuGuy is now known as who [04:24] drawde_, how did you end up with working installation is beyond me, run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade see if it spits out any errors, also did you upgrade or clean install? [04:25] DasEi: how about the other ones? [04:25] usser: clean install [04:25] I have a question. [04:25] If anyone has some free time. [04:25] drawde_, until it randomly bombs down the line... I'd reinstall to be safe. [04:25] eatloaf: type in terminal: mount [04:25] drawde_, that is even weirder. usually boot loader installs at the very end, if it was interrupted at 61% you should have unbootable install [04:26] !ask | Fancycakes [04:26] Fancycakes: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [04:26] BiNaRyCoD: /dev/sdg1 on /mnt/drobo type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro) [04:26] josh_: same there, the new apt is improved and most projects adapted it [04:26] After uninstalling kwallet, kdm fails to appear & I'm presented with a console logon- then automatic logon kicks in & I'm entering KDE. How can this be? [04:26] darkchest_, file ok? [04:27] fine i guess i'll reformat again lol [04:27] rictec: yes [04:27] DasEi: so how do I add the keys? sory Im new.. [04:27] can any one tell me how i can set up CMDA2000 connectin in ubuntu 9.10 [04:27] darkchest_, try what i told you i will be here later [04:27] Josh_: you need to go to to the ppa and get the keys the one for medibuntu is on the web site you can still install from them just have to answer yes to the question of trusting them which is up too you if you trust them [04:28] how about the launchpad thing? [04:28] 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 [04:28] josh_: http://tinyurl.com/ycy6nub [04:28] Does anyone know why my touchpad turns back on almost immediately after I turn it off? [04:28] thankls [04:28] southwind, Uh, like a usb mobile broadband device or tethered phone? [04:29] ya [04:29] southwind, which one? [04:29] sciencekid: sounds pretty messed up. for completeness, try "sudo dpkg --purge adobe-flashplugin". If successful, do "sudo aptitude clean" and then "aptitude search flashplugin". if search turns it up, do "sudo aptitude install adobe-flashplugin". [04:30] darkchest_, you changed file http://pastebin.com/m63ae82b8 [04:30] so.. this is kinda weird. i just installed 9.10 64 bit, and it doesn't think that i have an nvidia card apparently? (it's a GTX 295) [04:30] sciencekid: and check your repositories. If you don't have restricted, enable it and update [04:31] Hello. Right click on applications and go to edit menus. I'm trying to add a luncher in my menus but nothing shows up when I create one. Can anybody help me? [04:31] southwind, if your device is seen as a modem (or whatever) right now, you can set that up in network connections under Mobile Broadband. [04:31] the Hardware Drivers applet doesn't list anything, and nvidia-detect reports 'none' [04:31] does anyone know if gimmie is still around it has always been a pain to install it [04:31] bye all [04:32] I am trying to edit menus in ubuntu but nothing i do changes the menus. I click add item and fill everything out but when I press OK nothing is added. [04:32] southwind, if you got, say, a usb mobile blah blah that appears to be a cdrom or other storage, you might need usbmodeswitch. (least I needed that for the one I had.) [04:33] Shwack, may need to relog [04:33] sciencekid: if nothing else works, you can risk trying "sudo aptitude --full-resolver" but be warned that this is very forceful and could potentially do bad things to your installation [04:33] ugh I can't make it work :( [04:33] Shwack you may need to restart the panel for the changes to take effect [04:34] ok removing pulse audio doesn't fix audio distortions,i hope this audio is fixed soon [04:34] Shwack, kill and restart gnome-panel [04:34] josh_: more user friendly :http://tinyurl.com/y8juk7v [04:34] Cosmic: ummmmm [04:34] Cosmic: im kinda afraid of trying that [04:35] i think I added more problems.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/312113/ [04:35] can i remove runit safely? or is it pertanent to the os?

[04:48] hi I'm about to do a clean install of 9.10 (alt disc) on an inspiron 2650 and I remember there being issues with acpi and other modules. can anybody offer any advice on how to disable every relevant boot option and for those choices to persist post-install? [04:48] and I'm not talking about apport [04:48] nbohaych1k, /query nickserv say "help register" [04:48] anyone? [04:48] SodaPhish: google and irc [04:48] beb [04:48] brb [04:48] heh [04:48] SodaPhish: http://pkill-9.com/wordpress/?p=127 [04:48] SodaPhish, define issue?

[04:49] DasEi: thank you [04:49] forceflow, I want to know if there's a script out there already === cow_lg_pgen_cow is now known as namakuDick [04:49] forceflow, disregard [04:50] frostburn, I want to know if there's a script out there already [04:50] installing again.. ubuntu disc check said it found no probs with the disc, installing again [04:50] SodaPhish, that's pretty vague, there's a big difference between an error in pidgin and a routing configuration [04:50] whamoo, if you mean kernel arguments, you want to confiugre grub. [04:50] here it is http://pastebin.com/m20a5377d [04:50] frostburn, sure, but why not have a standard set of things to collect like `hardinfo`, but extended to include installed packages, system logs, etc. [04:50] Shwack, open up .xession-errors (home directory, enable hidden files) see if there's any errors there [04:50] that's what I'm on about. [04:50] frostburn k one second [04:51] wireless remains a major pain....when it works, it works...when it decides not to, getting it to work again is darn near impossible [04:51] ashfire: ok is there a wey to configure grub from a blank slate state, like an advanced step of installation? [04:51] frostburn yeah there is alot fo stuff in here [04:52] josh_: erm, a reason to have backports enabled ? [04:52] frostburn, I've already scoured google and I'm sure I just don't ahve the right terms in therem, but wth should I be searching for? [04:52] SodaPhish, you could script that, cat /proc/cpuinfo /proc/meminfo $(dpkg -l) > diag.txt [04:52] how do i downgrade my version? [04:52] ashfire: thanks for the term correction, I'll be back when my request is better-formed [04:52] DasEi: hmm I just coppied that from a tutorial.. [04:53] whamoo, not to my knowledge, though it's been a couple version since I used the alt disc. [04:53] Shwack, check at the bottom, see if there's anything related to menu [04:53] oorah: downgrade what? [04:53] frostburn, I know, and I have a primitive form of what I'd like, but I'm sure someone else has already done this and done it better... that's why I'm asking if anyone knows of such a beast [04:53] Blue1, my Xubuntu version? [04:53] josh_: k, then give me a few minutes to overwork it [04:53] oorah, full reinstall [04:53] DasEi: ok thanks alot [04:53] oorah: I think you'd install a previous version then [04:53] bazhang, not reinstall, just downgrade to 9.10 [04:54] oop [04:54] oorah, you mean 9.04 [04:54] oorah: does non sequitur mean anything to you? [04:54] bazhang, thats what i meant [04:54] hi there [04:54] frostburn a nautilus share message [04:54] ashfire: yeah as I remeber I have had nothing but failures using the standard disc on this lappy, but good end results with alt. tried the 9.10 standard yesterday and got the expected blinking cursor screen [04:54] SodaPhish, this kind of stuff is usually done like in-house, its your responsibility as a sysadmin to write those kind of custom scripts, and those scripts usually end up being kinda specific to the requirements [04:54] Blue1, whats that? [04:54] oorah, then a full reinstall of the system [04:54] how to apply php zlib bug in 32bit server? [04:54] frostburn: "netusershaire_info" bu ti failed ' net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare; cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares [04:54] whamoo, just quickly, you can manually pass arguments to the kernel at boot via grub. [04:54] oorah: why would you want to downgrade to the current release? (non sequitur -- literally "no sequence") [04:55] usser, yeah, I know, but like I said, I'm looking for somethign generic that I can either hack to work or build off of. [04:55] halp! I forked my Grub! I am on Ubuntu 9.10 Wubi, how can I fix It? I just changed the timeout to 2 seconds and then did the reload command or whatever it was [04:55] Hello!!! anyone here knows how can i change the Gtk tooltip-delay-settings? [04:55] SodaPhish, like this guy for example http://linuxshellaccount.blogspot.com/2008/01/linux-shell-script-to-gather-basic.html [04:55] I've already got a primative. [04:55] frostburn: it says at the very bottom 'Please ask your system administrator to enable user sharing" [04:55] Shwack, that shouldn't have anything to do with it, i might start googling some of the errors you see there, who knows [04:55] SodaPhish, its all pretty basic [04:55] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/451314 this bug for 9.10 [04:55] Blue1, i wanna downgrade to 9.04, karmic is too buggy on my system [04:55] usser, looking [04:55] oorah: then you'd have to install 9.04 [04:55] oorah: me to [04:55] frostburn: :( I am goign to try restarting. i hope it works... this sucks [04:56] i had to turn off power settings to never to stop the flickering, and also most the time it does not detect usb devices [04:56] oorah, (sorry for cutting in) Downgrading is not supported. [04:56] oorah: 9.10 is marginal -- but it's getting better [04:56] usser, and frostburn have either of you ever worked on an ISS Proventia device? they have a tech support script that gathers hella-lots of data... [04:56] I want something like that. [04:56] anyone can help with Grub config? [04:56] oorah: ditto on the usb [04:56] what do i do about my usb devices not being detected? === eca is now known as widyan [04:56] I changed timeout and reloaded and now I get a grub sh prompt [04:56] SodaPhish, ISS being International Space Station :) [04:56] SodaPhish, no i havent [04:57] oorah: sometimes I restart the gdm and that helps - not always... [04:57] if i restart several times they might be detected [04:57] ashfire: ooh I'm not sure I know what you mean, but I'll be looking at the loader menus in one moment, disc just finished burning ;P [04:57] usser, no Internet Security Systems (now a division of IBM) [04:57] usser, they make intrusion detection/prevention and other security things [04:57] usser, their support script was hawt [04:57] i am having a question to update php5 and the dependencies to 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6.1 [04:57] how to get this work? [04:57] how do i restart gdm? [04:57] i have xubuntu [04:57] just tried apt-get update [04:57] whamoo, and mind you, the cd does not use grub, it uses something else (isolinux i think?). [04:58] oorah: I don't think 9.10 is quite ready for prime time - but for me to go back is to hard - you'd do a sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [04:58] ျမန္မာလို ျမင္ရလား [04:58] is there a server addon for postfix or anything that allows for syncing of contacts and callender? I currently use roundcube as my web baised access, and I would like to sync my desktop and laptop as well [04:58] SodaPhish, i dunno how hot can it get, i usually just write my own stuff cause i dont need/want to work with other people's code that i have to figure when i can just write my own [04:58] Blue1, how about xfce? [04:58] but never works [04:58] usser i got everything to finally work nicely [04:58] SodaPhish, but i see your point [04:58] oorah: that restarts x and give you and new login screen [04:58] I registered my nick :) === ben is now known as ZooK [04:58] opticon, awesome, call me when you get login scripts to work :) [04:58] usser, but that's part of the problem... if everyone were working off a common base, others could write utilities to process those reports, etc... [04:58] ashfire: good to know, I have seen that at the top of my screen... could explain why arguments do not persist [04:59] how do i restart xfce display manager? === cow_lg_pgen_cow is now known as namakuDick [04:59] lol it took me this long to get where i am now no telling how long that'll take [04:59] oorah: I already told you... sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [04:59] usser: I'm thinking of writing something that produces an XML output and then a simple little web interface to view it. [04:59] lo [04:59] but now that you mention it [04:59] SodaPhish, yea but those scripts are not compatible between platforms, ie *bsd has its own /proc-like system with its own quirks, linux has its own, solaris has its own, its just not cross-platform thats why you dont see a common platform [05:00] i know this is kinda long but i wondered if anybody could tell me what i did wrong to get this error everytime i go to do something and how to fix it?

[05:01] Ok I can create new application launchers in my menu but not new locations "such as http://www.google.com" [05:01] ashfire: ok, so I should install as usual, and then at first boot configure grub to kill acpi, apic, lapic, and others? [05:01] is there a server addon for postfix or anything that allows for syncing of contacts and callender? I currently use roundcube as my web baised access, and I would like to sync my desktop and laptop as well [05:01] Creating locations on my desktop is fine just no tin menu [05:01] SodaPhish, well there's nagios [05:01] Shwack, sure you can, just preface it with firefox http://google.com [05:01] jeeves_Moss: postfix doesn't handle contacts or cal. === one_ is now known as vmware-trouble [05:02] frostburn I want to connect to sftp://example.com [05:02] SodaPhish, they have splunk, which i heard is quite good, but i just never used it since i dont have the need to. [05:02] whamoo, you can't save options at boot, you have to modify the grub config. I don't know how to do that because I don't know how to work GRUB 2. [05:02] usser, looking... [05:02] jbroome, are there soulitions for doing this? I would like to have one location to sync everything. [05:02] frostburn I'm using the exact same methods to create a launcher on my desktop that works perfectly [05:02] josh_: [05:02] SodaPhish, there's ubuntu server console, forgot the name [05:02] whamoo, i mean the grub config files. [05:02] is there a GRUB support channel? [05:02] I need it [05:02] usser, any idea what its called? i mean, even close? [05:03] ashfire: i have solved these issues in the past by trial and error, but if I fully understood what I am doing I could remember and repeat these actions with less energy wasted. maybe it's time to learn the ins and outs of GRUB2. is it safe to assume we'll be using it for a while? [05:03] usser, or is it commercial? [05:03] WACOMalt, #grub :) [05:03] fresh install of 9.10 when I try to play ANY video i get "error occured" "internal data stream error" [05:03] Shwack, there should be a commandline option for nautilus to connect to a sftp server with url [05:03] :) thx [05:03] WACOMalt: #grub. cleverly named [05:03] hi, I just installed vmware on the Ubuntu 9.04, I am now using the web interface, I want to open an existing virtual machine, and when I click on Virtual machine it keeps on saying loading, how can I load an existing machine using this interface [05:03] whamoo, grub 2? it's the new grub version, you should get used to grub 2. [05:03] vmware-trouble: #vmware is the place to ask :) [05:03] SodaPhish, hang on i'll try to dig up that tool, and yes its commercial [05:03] frostburn: I guess i'm under the assumption that you can only add launchers to aaplications from the menu bar [05:03] jbroome, are there soulitions for doing this? I would like to have one location to sync everything. [05:04] frostburn: if this is the case.. a nautilus expression would be nice [05:04] SodaPhish, yea its called landscape [05:04] usser, splunk isn't quite right... [05:04] !landscape [05:04] Landscape makes the management and monitoring of Ubuntu systems simple and effective by combining world-class support with easy to use online management tools. https://landscape.canonical.com/ [05:04] usser, looking. [05:04] ashfire i thought so too. sorry for the rhetorical questions (bad habit) [05:04] is there any particular reason ubuntu's wireless manager can't provide meaningful information when it fails to connect to a network....? [05:04] SodaPhish, landscape is i think pretty close to your requirements [05:04] i know geoffrey! I have so much trouple with it [05:05] Shwack, nautilus sftp://url.here [05:05] josh_:still around ? [05:05] usser, except not free. :-) [05:05] jeeves_Moss: zimbra i guess [05:05] frostburn i had just tried that and it works [05:05] frostburn: you are the man - thank youv ery much [05:05] whamoo, it's ok. [05:05] usser, and I don't want to manage the systems, just get reports on them. [05:05] SodaPhish, exactly :) [05:05] Shwack, np [05:05] simply saying "Disconnected, you are no longer connected to a network" isn't giving me much to work with [05:05] for likewise to work correctly these components had to be removed Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD daemon libnss-mdns telepathy-salut [05:05] jbroome, ok, thanks [05:05] Geoffrey2, what does dmesg | tail say? [05:06] SodaPhish, again for simple reports i'd just write scripts that gather certain info i need and email that info to me say once a day [05:06] are the lighter versions of linux really that much faster than ubuntu if you have a good comp? [05:06] usser, think belarc advisor, but for Linux... [05:06] i removed everything that said mdns before because i wasnt sure which mdns had to go [05:06] but its avahi for sure [05:06] At boot all I get is a grub sh prompt. What can I do? [05:06] usser, and yes I've seen hardinfo, its good, but hardware only. [05:06] lo [05:06] fresh install of 9.10 when I try to play ANY video i get "error occurred" "internal data stream error" [05:06] Shwack, not really [05:07] no one there can help me? [05:07] WACOMalt, asking over and over doesn't help. [05:07] frostburn: awesome - i like ubuntu. I want to try other distros of linux to see if any are better but if ubuntu has the same possibilities with better gui then im just gonna stick here [05:07] i_is_broke, the last line is wlan0: disassociating by local choice (reason=3) [05:07] josh| ? [05:07] Shwack, if you want to learn the guts of linux, try gentoo, but be prepared for suffering for your first install [05:07] josh__: ? [05:08] Ashfire908: sometimes new people join who may know. I try to keep reposts with a large enough delay to not flood. [05:08] DasEi: yes [05:08] josh__: ah, well that's a big one, I put a script : http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/312132/ [05:08] WACOMalt, just try the forums or something. I've done what you are doing, and it has never helped me. [05:08] grub channel seems to be dead, or devoid of knowledgeable people currently [05:08] Geoffrey2, what type of card is it? [05:08] frostburn: what about building my own distro from the ground up? [05:09] will do [05:09] DasEi: ok i'll try it than ks [05:09] josh__: waaiiiit [05:09] DasEi: ? [05:09] josh__: can you run this ? [05:09] i_is_broke, the thing is, it's worked before, i just connected several days ago, and now it won't.....shrug [05:09] Shwack, not recommended, i'd stick with gentoo, it keeps package management, manageable, whilst still compiling everything [05:09] DasEi: copy and pasting them on terminal right?.. [05:10] Geoffrey2, lspci will tell you what card you are using [05:10] josh__: sudo gedit sigs.sh [05:10] ok [05:10] josh__: download the paste as text [05:10] frostburn, and the frustration and high learning curve. [05:10] in windows i use d-tools to mount iso's for ubuntu is there an alternative?

[05:12] josh__: sudo chmod +x sigs.sh [05:12] why does console-kit-daemon leak memory over time?

[05:19] Hello!!! anyone here knows how can i change the Gtk tooltip-delay-settings? [05:19] opticon, if it fails you can always specify the FS manually. ie with -t udf or -t ext4 for example [05:19] interfere / interface [05:19] ashfire: ok about what you said earlier, if i disable every nonessential module for install, the standard kernel defaults will stand at first boot... at which time i would add lines to that menu.lst (except it's a different file now that it's grub2) until I get the desired result. is that right? [05:19] how do I know witch "/dev/video*" is my tv tuner? [05:20] coz 4vl2 cant find it [05:20] whamoo, you could do it that way I guess.

[05:33] WACOMalt: after savibg, update-grub [05:33] paritosh: if you have the 9.10 alternate install disk, I bet you could put that in and use the "fix broken system" option [05:33] emerson: what is happening, and what do you want to happen? [05:33] I did the release upgrade to 9.10 from 9.04 but it still says 9.04 [05:33] DasEi: Update-grub is what killed grub last time [05:33] billiard: complaing that it can not play xvid....

I'm not an Ubuntu user. Do I have to be root to install a package from Synaptic? [05:53] <_Ray_> (Can I install it "for this user", in some way?) [05:53] Liquid-Silence: it's a big change. Consider running ubuntu under virtualbox for a while... [05:53] * DasEi suggests tophyr to use dualboot or a vm [05:53] tophyr: I doubt they have the technology yet... [05:54] heh [05:54] DasEi: dang, some of the programs I have may not be able to get again. Special licenses from my work. I'll keep looking for a fix to grub for now, and if I succeed I will immediately convert to a psysical partition [05:54] losha I used to be a unix sys admin :) so I know my way around it :) Just not to sure on the dual monitor setup etc... [05:54] Liquid-Silence: honestly I think you want dual-boot [05:54] and if I would still be able to connect to the work vpn :) [05:54] i never started with virtual box, i just dived in with no partitions and had no sound my first few versions [05:54] then learned as i went [05:54] _Ray_: in ubuntu you use the program sudo to run programs as root [05:54] DasEi: that's why i'm like "gahhh", i just deleted my dualboot in favor of wuby, and in doing so fubar'ed my grub [05:54] or do you web-dev in linux;P [05:54] * tophyr kicked in the face by karma [05:54] my usb devices aren't detected what do i do? [05:55] <_Ray_> Billiard, yes, but do you need to always "sudo synaptic"? [05:55] whamoo @ work I have to use windows :D [05:55] <_Ray_> (As opposed to just "synaptic" as a regular, unprivileged user) [05:55] oorah; you don't get anything in dmesg regarding usb? [05:55] oorah: lsusb ? [05:55] Liquid-Silence: can't help you with the monitor stuff, but the vpn stuff you should be able to trial from vbox... [05:55] might aswell just go the ubuntu route :) [05:55] _Ray_: if you run it from the command line i think you will need to use sudo synaptic, but from the menu you can just click package manager or w/e [05:56] As I have to code on the VPN anyway [05:56] DasEi, 5 different things came up, but nothing mouted on the desktop display or in places [05:56] Liquid-Silence: isee. you're wondering if maybe you have a laptop would you be able to connect to your old VPN without vista? [05:56] DasEi: do you think if I ran the wubi to partition program if it would work now with grub screwed up? [05:56] <_Ray_> Billiard, yes, but will it require root privileges? That's my main question. Can I use Synaptic without administrator privileges? [05:56] whamoo pm? [05:56] <_Ray_> (Maybe install it just for my user, perhaps? In my ~?) [05:56] _Ray_ no [05:56] _Ray_: no you need to be root to install packages [05:56] <_Ray_> No way to, like in a ./configure, specify a --prefix? [05:57] _Ray_: what? [05:57] what tha [05:57] WACOMalt: is what I think, if the fs is still intact [05:57] DasEi: I think it is. I can ls in the sh:grub> prompt and see my files [05:57] oorah: but desired devices listed ? [05:57] <_Ray_> Billiard, in a GNU autoconf-based package (./configure; make; make install), within ./configure you can give it a --prefix option, to not install its binaries in, say, /usr/bin, but to install in, say, ~/Programs/, without needing root. [05:58] DasEi, according to what i see, nothing is mounted [05:58] <_Ray_> Is Synaptic only able to install system-wide packages, thus always requiring root, and without a way to install per-user, less privilege-needing packages? [05:58] DasEi, sometimes when i restart they are mounted, but usually after several restarts [05:58] <_Ray_> (Or, can apt do this?) [05:59] _Ray_: you may be able to do something like that from the command line, but not in synaptic akaik === rsc____ is now known as rsc___ [05:59] !fstab | oorah [05:59] oorah: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [05:59] Question about the WWW folder and the root permissions: I am trying to test some PHP files but when i try to move my php files into the /var/www/ folder to test them, it does not allow me to move it. Hellp? [05:59] !blkid | oorah [05:59] oorah: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [05:59] brb [05:59] greezmunkey i did an ISO reinstall of 9.10 [05:59] if you have a server which is located at file://localhost that means that it's supposed to be your computer isn't it? [06:00] boulevardie: yes [06:00] do i need to specify all the partitions like /usr /home and swap or the single /root partition will be enough? [06:00] greezmunkey iwconfig says 'wmaster0 no wireless extensions' and 'wlan0' has a lot of info [06:00] DasEi: well, my computer only has a HD of 300gb, but this is server has like over 900GBs of space, how is that possible? [06:00] ravenger: at install ? [06:01] ravenger: just a / is enough / is not the same as /root [06:01] boulevardie: in which app ? [06:01] infidel2s: I had the same problem. What type/kind of nic? [06:01] i only have one wifi card so i dont know why iwconfig shows wmaster0 and wlan [06:01] _Ray_: synaptic only does system-wide installs and needs root privelege. What you want, a custom install, *may* be possible by downloading a .deb package and unpacking it by hand and running the binaries. I've done this once or twice, but it's nasty and evil, and *so* not supported... [06:01] greezmunkey 4965AGN, Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [06:02] DasEi: I'm not actually on ubuntu, I just thought you guys might know something about this, so sorry if I'm wasting your time, but I thought this was pretty damn strange [06:02] my usb devices aren't detected what do i do? [06:02] <_Ray_> losha, just seems weird that, Linux being normally a multi-user environment, Ubuntu would adopt the Windows-based tradition of needing Administrator privileges to install packages, when, by default, this isn't really needed (./configure doesn't). [06:02] Billiard: yes i got it if u dont mind can u tell what is the purpose then for these /usr /home and swap like where they r used [06:02] infidel2s: I had to remove the avahi related modules, there were two... [06:02] _Ray_: ./configure and make don't mess around in /usr [06:02] _Ray_: configure doesn't make system-wide changes visible to all users. synaptic does.... [06:02] once I did my device changed to ra0, and so far no problems [06:02] ravenger: if you wanted those directories on separate partitions, otherwise they will be on a single partition [06:03] oorah: as hinted above, find them with sudo fdisk -l , uuid them, put em in fstab [06:03] <_Ray_> microlith, and that's exactly what I want to accomplish :) [06:03] _Ray_: then learn to love sudo [06:03] Someone wants to sell me HP g60-458dx laptops for $479 each or less. Would these be good laptops to run Ubuntu? Anyone run on them? Any advice on low cost powerful laptops? [06:03] who want free torrentleech user private me [06:03] greezmunkey i seem to have both avahi-autoipd and avahi-daemon [06:03] <_Ray_> microlith, I'm not using Linux ATM, I was just wondering why Synaptic doesn't have something akin to --prefix [06:03] _Ray_: configure also won't make a system unbootable. synaptic can... [06:04] infidel2s: what happens if you sudo ifdown wlan0, then ifup wlan0? [06:04] _Ray_: because --prefix is required at compile time iirc... [06:04] DasEi, i don't understand that second part [06:04] Do you try to get an address via dhcp? [06:04] how do i uuid them and put them in fstab? [06:04] <_Ray_> Ah, right, I keep forgetting it's a binary distro. Used to Gentoo xP [06:04] Question about the WWW folder and the root permissions: I am trying to test some PHP files but when i try to move my php files into the /var/www/ folder to test them, it does not allow me to move it. Hellp? [06:04] greezmunkey did i try to get an address via dhcp? [06:04] biliiant: The requested plugins are: [06:04] MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) decoder [06:04] XVID MPEG-4 decoder in the live cd. [06:05] I'm happily past using gentoo, ubuntu gets systems into a good state quick and keeps them there [06:05] oorah: 1) find devicename aka /dev/sdg , right ? [06:05] Portunus: if you only need to do it a few times, you can use sudo to move the files as a work around [06:05] infidel2s: tail -f /var/log/syslog then try to connect... see what happens [06:05] _Ray_: dpkg *does* have an equivalent (sort of). But synaptic is too high-level for that kind of chicanery.. [06:05] <_Ray_> microlith, Gentoo works fine, too, if your first command upon booting is "emerge firefox" [06:05] joe__: and it works? [06:05] DasEi, yes [06:05] _Ray_: sure, my issue is with everything required to get to that point, then waiting for firefox to build :/ [06:05] greezmunkey 'sudo ifdown wlan0' says 'device not configured' [06:06] I can have computers do it for me [06:06] <_Ray_> Firefox, OO.o, X.org [06:06] oorah: 2) sudo blkid, get corresponding uuid [06:06] billiard: no i jumpped on wireless and it could not find the pluggins and for a mov file also [06:06] FREE TorrentLeech user PRIVATE !

There are obviously strengths and weaknesses to both. people here choose ubutnu/linux because they feel the strengths for them outweigh the weaknesses. [06:27] Thanks Soreau, will do. [06:27] to install simple something like flash you need to write "wget http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz && tar xvfz libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz" why all this ? [06:28] Billiard, I looked up the error message and one of the problems was that the drive may be dynamic, first off is there a way to check that? [06:28] is there a way to download a driver and install it via USB jump drive in ubuntu? [06:28] in windows you just download it from your firefox or something [06:28] xfire8: ask adobe [06:28] xfire8 and then you need to put that .so file in ~/.mozilla/plugins [06:28] infidel2s: that sucks... what kind of errors do you get? [06:28] xfire8: that's entirely adobe's fault [06:28] idleon : its not only adobe its almost every software [06:28] want more examples ?

I wanted to give the full drive to Windows anyways, its on a 40GB. Thing is I ran installation with the disk blank, it had no partitions, it was all unallocated. I blanked it in gparted before booting up the disc. I tried running install from there but that didnt work, so I made a ful sized part on the drive, that still didnt work.

That's offtopic. #ubuntu-offtopic ;) [06:39] thornheart: I used to be. but yeah what leaf-sheep said [06:39] gotta go, securing wireless network... [06:39] Portunus: Once you have installed LAMPP, you need to start it up. [06:39] Portunus: in this case, you need to install libapache2-mod-php5 or something like that [06:39] vega-: apache2 is already installed [06:39] Portunus: and, READ documentation .. [06:39] DasEi, I installed the deb, but the driver is still inactive. :( without it, I cant get internet access. [06:39] Portunus: and the php module to apache? [06:39] aquachica: how do i go about htat? just go into terminal and call it? [06:40] vega-: i am new to so many things on this: mysql, php, ubuntu, vmware, linux etc [06:40] Portunus: You have to go to the terminal to start up LAMPP.

[06:41] what is nautilus? [06:41] dravekx|windows: ok, I'm quite tired now ( 7.40 am here ), know the chipset ? [06:41] Greetings All. I'm trying to install ubuntu for the first time. while I try come to the screen of partitions I see 40 GB of "Unusable" space. I know thats the space am looking to install Ubuntu. Can someone please help me in making this usable? thanks and appreciate your help [06:41] !package nautilus [06:41] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [06:41] portunus try looking in usr/share/doc/ [06:41] Chaitu: desktop cd ? [06:41] thats no fun [06:42] Portunus: nobody here can explain the whole procedure for you, read docs first [06:42] Portunus: For me, I go to the Terminal and enter this code: "sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start". It will ask for my password. I type that in, and it should work. [06:42] Evet: its the file manager thingy [06:42] DasEi:well i downloaded alternate? cd .. sorry not familiar with terms [06:42] Chaitu: I see, second [06:42] !nautilus [06:42] Sorry, I don't know anything about nautilus [06:42] Portunus: You need to tell us where LAMPP is located on your HD. [06:42] Dang [06:43] Docteh, is it reasonable to use 50% of cpu? [06:43] Portunus: My version of LAMPP is located in: "/opt/lampp/" [06:43] Good morning everyone! I was looking at device support page and i noticed that there isnt got any standart (N) wireless cards? O.o [06:43] Evet: depends on what dir you're looking in, it makes thumbnails for things just like windows explorer [06:43] Would anyone help me here please? [06:44] Evet: Depends on what cpu you got also [06:44] vega-, resildren, aquachica: this is an overload of information; i am sorry to ask all of this but this is just very intimidating and panicking since this is due soon a n i need to get this working; still, i appreciate your help [06:44] saunatonttu: Look at Hardware or Supported Hardware? [06:44] Docteh, im trying to kill it. it just restarts [06:44] Grrrrrrrrrrr.... [06:44] Chaitu: d/l http://tinyurl.com/yly9w6e , burn it, format that partition to ext 4 [06:45] Evet: well it is running the icons on the desktop possibly [06:45] Portunus: May I PM you? [06:45] Am on win 7 and trying to have dual boot. If that helps.. [06:45] Is there a way to download the entire DEB package for a proprietary driver???? [06:45] vigo i did that already [06:45] DasEi: Thanks a ton. let me have a look at that link [06:45] doing this one by one sucks. [06:45] does suspend use any power at all? right now my usb devices most of the time are not mounted at startup and sometimes are, so i figured since they are now suspend would be a nice workaround for now [06:45] Portunus: yes, but things still start with first reading the basic documentation and then coming here if you still have questions, it makes no sense for someone to step through the whole process here [06:45] !info gparted | Chaitu [06:45] Chaitu: maybe the unusable partition is the windows partition? [06:45] Chaitu: gparted (source: gparted): GNOME partition editor. In component main, is optional. Version 0.4.5-2ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 440 kB, installed size 3704 kB [06:45] oorah: yes-- suspend keeps things in memory, and memory uses memory [06:45] Portunus, your trying to see your php pages? yes or do you just need to read them? [06:46] memory uses power i mean [06:46] saunatonttu: Forums any help? wait, if you looked at Hardware, you have been there, one moment,,, [06:46] Docteh: am pretty sure its not. I know the exact size of other partitions and they match up [06:46] ? [06:46] vega-: well, i thought that my request was a simple one since it is just running the php file, like opening a .html a file [06:46] Chaitu:it's a small live cd that lets you view n edit your partitions, though win can do that, too [06:47] Portunus: to that, i already told you the answer [06:47] tishikawa2, thanks. but not a lot though does it, i mean does this temporary workaround make a big difference on the electric bill? lol i'm not really sure how much more power will be used over time [06:47] eyecandy = beauty theme not like the default ? [06:47] tishikawa2, and my battery is not plugged on, will it lose the suspend if i unplug the power? [06:47] you can see the partitions in dev folder [06:47] vega-: yes yes yes, ok thank you; i am currently reading the documentation and trying to make heads and tails of everything on my 34th hours awake and being 7am in the morning [06:48] Greetings, I'm having problems installing Ubuntu in my laptop. The installer doesn't give me the option to install it side-by-side with windows. After booting the LiveCD I tried gParted but it doesn't let me create a new partition or resize the current NTFS partition. Any ideas in how to solve this? [06:48] or maybe in mnt folder [06:48] DasEi: Am sorry if this is something silly.. the tool that am downloading will help me to change my partitions, right? I mean I need to burn that iso..boot and change that to usable? thanks again [06:48] 123 [06:48] because the files system principle is diferent [06:48] oorah: suspend uses power, so it'll use the battery then lose it [06:48] oorah: you won't loose suspend, and it uses very little energy-- but batteries will run out eventually [06:48] any device is mounted like a node , also the partitions [06:48] Chaitu: yes, but if there is working win on it, could use that , too [06:48] saunatonttu: British thing?

[06:49] with version of ubuntu are you installing [06:49] ? [06:49] Chaitu: never wrong to have gparted live, though ( win and linux) [06:49] Karmic [06:49] resildren: i appreciate the offer lol; actually i don't do well on coffee :P [06:49] oorah: it will stay in suspend until it runs out of battery life [06:49] 9.10下用什么qq？谢谢！ [06:49] you mount the parttiton of windows like other node [06:49] Lasthope106: choose th option install on this system and after that it will give you the option of the partitions [06:49] !cn [06:49] For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [06:49] just that [06:49] yes am on the same laptop.

Problem is it wont let me resize the Ubuntu window. [07:05] Has anyone had trouble with their system after upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10? [07:05] dmmainou: ok go on the terminal and check your sound on alsamixer [07:05] lets see your net interfaces [07:05] Lasthope106: choose manual [07:05] cd /etc/network [07:05] then > nano interfaces [07:05] dmmainou: just type alsamixer on the terminal [07:05] the problem is i only have issues with the sound,if i could just install the creative drivers or something like that it would be fine. [07:05] SetiAmon: can take that, apt will update it (bandwith of net ?) [07:05] well guys, in 9.04 i had 32 bit and thing were cool....when i went to 9.10 a week or two before it released i stepped up to 64 bit and flash has been buggy at best [07:05] in particular, when performing the 9.04 -> 9.10 upgrade on a VMware image? [07:05] and tell me the configuration of your interfaces [07:06] why not connecting to internet in karmic? [07:06] check this: http://www.pixelbeat.org/cmdline.html [07:06] thats something interesting.IN installation it see's my wifi card but it can't negotiate with it after that,in other words i can't update it at installation [07:06] particularly online games that use flash as a basis for running [07:06] Billiard: I don't get that option either [07:06] Counterspell: what are you haveing trouble with [07:06] Lasthope106: did you made a md5sum to the iso before burning it?

[07:07] b0w: yes, I checked that the media was good [07:07] my issue occurred when i upgraded, counterspell but not so much from the 9.04 to 9.10 but i think the 32 bit to 64 bit part [07:07] Counterspell: I would say its a crapshoot upgrading 9.04 to 9.10. Some people say it went ok, some couldn't even boot after upgrading. Make a backup before you upgrade... [07:08] Lasthope106: its weird your not getting that option, i cant help you more Lasthope106 sorry but ask for help here on dual booting [07:08] b0w: volume was low and increased it to the green zone but no luck either.... tried to play a wav file [07:08] thanks for the info guys [07:08] hi [07:08] for me it seems like 9.10 got worse after the release....beta worked fine for me and the closer relases got the more it crashed [07:08] lol [07:08] seems to be troubled waters [07:08] b0w: thanks for your help b0w [07:08] go to System >Hadware testing [07:09] too bad upgrades usually go flaky [07:09] especially on desktop system [07:09] aksuna, I got it working.

[07:13] has anyone successfully installed the silverlight port moonlight to work with microsoft's tuva? [07:14] DasEi, so basically they try to get alot of improvments cause the lts is use most widely because of it being a lts version [07:14] brocgiddens: oh noes, mine doens't even boot up, it all happened after I installed the ubuntu satanic edition mod / theme. I can't get it working as normal now ; [07:14] Lasthope106: that's odd. What does it say when you try to repartition? Are you trying to resize and existing windows partition?

I'm sure there are others. Search for chm in synaptic [07:17] Ademan: In that case, you might want to replace brasero with bras -- Keep it simple. [07:18] brocgiddens: can understand it, better documented and due to backward-experience better supported, fo me the extra work pays [07:18] losha: can you alter chm files or you can only "view" them?

[07:21] It has to do with the ATI 3200 HD and its stubborn refusal to do anything useful >:( [07:21] because I'm not just trying to get silverlight working, but also to get microsoft's tuva app working [07:21] brocgiddens: "latest and greatest" == most experiment and least tested...

[07:22] cousin_mario: conky [07:22] DasEi, no problem, if this wasn't to get video lectures by Richard Feynman, which seem to have 'mysteriously' disappeared across the web, I wouldn't have even remotely contemplated getting silverlight on my box [07:23] losha, 8.04 really??? [07:23] daath: could use another lightwight, xdm for example [07:23] losha i also went from 32 bit to 64 bit at the same time [07:23] Running 9.10 hoped that they might have gotten it fixed or that someone got a work around going [07:23] losha so alot of variables there [07:23] daath, have you tried xfce? [07:23] KubuntuHelp: ask the actual question and see. Many Kubuntu users hang in #kubuntu also [07:23] DasEi, yes but I'm asking how I can choose the WM [07:23] i installed kubuntu.... and my wireless internet doesnt work...how can i get it to work... i'm new to linux [07:23] leaf-sheep: I'll have a look, thanks [07:23] приве [07:23] excuse me ubottu the other version was jaunty 9.0.4 and the last one is nowadays 9.10 right [07:23] thermal_: ah ja [07:23] oorah: There's lots of us out there.

[07:24] I dont think i spelt quingly right. :) its a framebuffer based xdm replacement. [07:24] Dr_Willism I know but that's not what I'm asking..

Or you just edit/make the users a .xinitrc or similer startup file to run what WM you want [07:25] oorah: well, I don't think concentric makes an LTS just for fun. There's gotta be a pretty large demand for it... [07:26] daath: so you are not using GDM then it seems. [07:26] gracias amigos [07:26] dsl internet not connecting in 9.10?

[07:45] i'm running sort of a hybrid installation using ubuntu 9.04 with gnome installed for a gui. I recently upgraded to 9.10 and everything on the system was fine until i had to restart it today and now it won't boot properly. the ubuntu logo shows up (for gnome) but after that it takes me to a blank screen with a cursor and i cant type anything or get to a terminal using alt-ctl-f* or anything. and i also cant boot into recovery mode because [07:46] ^^ btw i already asked this question in #ubuntu-server but thought i'd ask it here to cuz it has to do with gnome [07:46] b0w: didn't like it http://paste.ubuntu.com/312229/ [07:47] there seems to be many alternatives when it comes to java... which one is "best"?

[07:50] Dr_Willis: yeah sounds like it... but i didn't know about it, and have been using ubuntu since 6.04 or so... wounder how come i missed it... :( [07:50] dmmainou: you sure? that would do the trick im sure but we could try more [07:50] I'm getting strange behavior out of mdadm. Had a four disk raid5 that worked great. Had a disk fail. Tried to replace the disk into the array... But it wants to add the disk as a spare, and not resync it. WTF?

[07:51] b0w: I'm reinstalling now lets see... im just impatient and don't knw what I'm doing... sonds compliated [07:51] thaks [07:51] syn-ack, restore as in windows. I wan't my system back to one previous state [07:51] OH [07:51] yeah, thats not possible [07:52] syn-ack, i've done some changes that i don't really like the outcome [07:52] b0w: still didn't like it same error. [07:52] is0lat3dsh33p: it is but you have to install and app for that [07:52] b0w, since when can you create recovery points in linux? [07:52] hi *. I am having problems with video (with x11) since I upgraded to 9.10) on two different computers. Does anyone know a fix for this? [07:52] is0lat3dsh33p, next time around consider sbackup [07:52] b0w, Thats what he's looking for [07:52] i've installed ubuntu-restricted-extras. And now i wan't to remove them [07:52] ok, bazhang [07:53] is that all it is? [07:53] b0w: I'll just put the disk in.... thanks so much as this is not the first time u help me. d [07:53] is0lat3dsh33p: why do you want to remove them? [07:53] Dr_Willis: hm... i installed ubuntu-restricted-extras... but still, when i type java at the command prompt it can't be found [07:53] syn-ack: theres and app for that wait a sec let me tell you the name [07:53] this bug is still unfixed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstreamer0.10/+bug/357042 [07:54] igge_: log out/back in perhaps? which java [07:54] /usr/bin/java [07:54] at least it tells me a workaround, but I know never to use the gstreamer-preferences [07:54] is0lat3dsh33p, or backintime-gnome [07:54] b0w, Dude, creepy [07:54] bazhang, thanks [07:54] !info backintime-common | is0lat3dsh33p [07:54] is0lat3dsh33p: backintime-common (source: backintime): simple backup/snapshot system.

Ubuntu-restriocted extras just installs several 'normal' packages in one command for you [07:56] do i need to boot of a live disc in order to be able to make a DD image of my system disk ? or can i just do it while the sytem is running .. [07:56] am back [07:56] Dr_Willis, then, maybe the cause is something else. [07:56] i'm not so good at ubuntu.. :/ [07:56] wapko: theres customiuzed dd variants of dd that you may want to use. depending on how you want to backup specifically. [07:56] wapko, I think you run the risk of an inconsistent image if you do that. I.e. you start the dd with the filesystem in one state, but as it progresses, the filesystem changes around it. [07:57] wapko: using a Live cd is proberly a good idea also. [07:57] wapko, dd if=/dev/dvd of=dvd.iso # for dvd [07:57] exodus_ms: i think it wong boot [07:57] anyhow, I have ATI Radeon HD3200, which driver should i install? [07:57] The2morrowMan: that was my concern axactly [07:57] wapko: when using dd be sure to give a BS=1024 or similer option. or else DD willbe very slow [07:57] !lucid [07:58] Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l02bhwofEqw for announcement video.

[07:58] Dr_Willis: customized DD. like how ? its for a nas box. i would like some form of automated backup of my 8gb usb system drive [07:58] Dr_Willis: will check it out [07:59] Dr_Willis: hm.. looking at the dependencies for ubuntu-restricted-extras there is no java... [07:59] Hello [07:59] wapko: theres dd_rescue and ddrescue for 'flakey' drives. then theres varioys partiion imageing tools that are dd on steroids [07:59] Dr_Willis, The bad part about PartImage is that it doesnt support ext4 yet [07:59] guys, how can i download compiz-check? [07:59] Dr_Willis: which version do you have? mine says 36 for installed version [07:59] is0lat3dsh33p: install? [07:59] syn-ack: Not tried it in ages.. [07:59] igge_: version of what? [07:59] om26er, where? [07:59] is0lat3dsh33p: what is it? [08:00] Dr_Willis, I usually either rsync OR use Cloanzilla so yeah [08:00] does the Apple iPhone SDK run in Ubuntu in any way? (Other than VirtualBox, VMware, etc.) [08:00] om26er, never mind.

[08:02] jasonmch1istos: You might get better support in #gnome -- Or use a different client for IRC. xchat, irssi, etc. [08:02] Empathy still isnt ready for prime time [08:02] are there some ready instructions for how to fix an ubuntu installation where the user deleted files from /boot so it wont boot any longer ? [08:02] got all my accounts setup, but when I run it, no contacts show up at all from my MSN or Gtalk [08:03] and yeah, using an actual IRC client is always better, IMO [08:03] !irc [08:03] A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines [08:03] great someone tricked us into being empathy alpha testers [08:03] I like XChat GNOME [08:03] jasonmch1istos, its not an alpha [08:03] most people HATE xchat-gnome and perfer thenoirmal xchat. [08:03] I use weechat mainly these days [08:03] why? [08:03] litteraly [08:03] Dr_Willis: yep that's what i did... but still.. if i right click on ubuntu-restricted-extras, choose "properties" and then Dependencies... there is nothing about java, only codecs, flashplugin and fonts and such... if you do the same, is there a java dependency then? [08:04] syn-ack: it seems like it [08:04] hmmm, ever since I upgrade to karmic, whenever I choose system > preferences > appearance The appearance preferences window loads and just hangs, unresponsive. [08:04] I also love Irssi [08:04] im on irssi [08:04] so simple, yet so advanced [08:04] jasonmch1istos, it just hasnt caught on yet and no ones built upon the framework quite yet [08:04] nbohaychuk: and no gui [08:04] igge_: when i said "right click" i meant in synaptic of course.. [08:04] I run it on my Ubuntu 8.04 LTS server all the time [08:05] There we go.. I am here on empathy now [08:05] so the answer is empathys irc is broke [08:05] Dr_Willis: sweet [08:05] Dr_willis_Empath: Sweet! [08:05] its not broke [08:05] exodus_ms, working fine here... something could very well have snafu'd [08:05] you just had to use 2+ different pull down menus to select the irc server [08:05] Is Empathy good at IRC? [08:05] after making a new contact for the freenode irc network [08:06] nbohaychuk, Don't know, I use an actual IRC client [08:06] no it doesnt function correctly [08:06] I found empathy to be horrible with irc [08:06] nbohaychuk: not really. :) its rather sucky atr irc [08:06] oh, that sucks [08:06] If it work, then it serve its purpose. I suppose. ;3 [08:06] syn-ack, yeah, I've experienced several problems since upgrading, I thought that one might be one of the easier ones to fix :P [08:06] it crashed alot [08:06] in empathy you can't part you can join another channel through command it don't show the number of users in the channel and so on [08:06] it doesnt work [08:06] add new account -> for freenode irc server. then the join room -> select the irc account , join the room [08:06] ^what om26er said [08:06] i cant get a window to show [08:06] I like the name, Empathy, like telepathy, but IMing instead of mind reading LOL [08:06] exodus_ms, can you do a fresh install? [08:07] Dr_Willis: it joins fine but no window displaying the room [08:07] nbohaychuk, its built on the Telepathy framework, actually [08:07] Dr_willis: can you check pleeeease? [08:07] jasonmch1istos, channel. IRC doesnt have rooms [08:07] how can I do a fresh install of karmic without losing all my files? [08:07] Shwack: resize [08:07] igge_: right click in what/where exactly? [08:08] LOL, is Telepathy also a program? I just meant like the magic you see in movies (which we know isn't real) [08:08] Shwack, I was personally hoping that you had a seperate partition for /home [08:08] om26er, the last time i tried to use resize it messed up the partition and i lost 30gigs [08:08] hi, any opinions on ubuntu moblin(9.04 I think) vs ubuntu netbook (9.10) for a Dell 10v? [08:08] !info telepathy [08:08] Package telepathy does not exist in karmic [08:08] nbohaychuk, no, its the library on which Empathy is built [08:08] syn-ack, I have a separate home partition, just not sure if I want to go through all the backup/fresh install etc if I'm not certain Karmic would behave differently with a fresh install [08:08] igge_: when it installs java theres some EULA license it also pops up about java. you have to agree to. [08:08] !telepathy | nbohaychuk [08:08] Sorry, I don't know anything about telepathy [08:08] Dr_Willis: in synaptic... or some other way to check the dependencies of ubuntu-restricted-extras [08:08] !java [08:08] To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository [08:08] !empathy [08:08] Empathy is an instant messaging and video chat client for GNOME.

Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! [08:09] exodus_ms, Just be sure to use the Karmic installer [08:09] syn-ack I have a 500gig partition that i have all of ubuntu on, a couple gigs for swap, and ~480 gigs for storage,.. I could move my home directly over to this storage partition? [08:09] I was just trying to get the ubuntu live cd to load up and it's hanging. I was curious if anyone might know what would cause that. [08:09] Dr_Willis: ah.. thanks for the "!java" [08:10] syn-ack, I've been hearing a fresh install differs greatly than upgrading, in the past i have had no problems with "upgrading" this time is different :) [08:10] twinburner: live cd or a bootable usb [08:10] well, I'm going to sleep, 'g night everyone [08:10] is anyone using fingerprint with karmic? [08:10] exodus_ms, shit happens sometimes. :/ [08:10] pardon the french [08:10] live cd. I'm trying to fix a computer. [08:10] * exodus_ms nods head [08:11] I don't know if you're familar with it but it's the issue with windows where a file called sptd.sys screws up and needs to be deleted on systems with daemon tools [08:11] twinburner: well, first of all, what's the RAM on the computer in question? [08:11] more than enough. it's mounting 1.5 gigs at the moment I think. [08:11] exodus_ms, and really the only thing thats different on a Karmic installer per se is that it doesnt install some of the Jaunty apps [08:11] ah [08:11] igge_: it has a great many 'reccomends' also for the ubuntu-restricted-extras also [08:11] exodus_ms, so its a bit less cluttered than the upgrade is [08:12] twinburner: We use the live CDs at work all the time for similar purposes. In my experience the discs start becoming flaky FAST if there's any kind of scratch or imperfection at all [08:12] igge_: it pulls in sun-java6-plugin that then pulls in the other java stuff I guess. [08:12] hrm [08:12] maybe it was a bad burn then. [08:12] w00ties [08:12] Shwack, you could backup to that other part, reformat and/or partition to how you want it, reinstall then move everything over. [08:12] I'll try making another one with less stuff runing on my good comp. [08:12] twinburner: worth a try, at least [08:12] thanks. Might be back if it doesn't work. [08:12] Shwack, its become rather trivial, honesty [08:12] honestly, too [08:12] twinburner: try making a bootable usb [08:13] Dr_Willis: but how can it pull that? i still don't see anything about java in the dependencies or recommends [08:13] sound recorder is not working in karmic [08:13] syn-ack, well, idk, the upgrade from jaunty to karmic broke cario-dock, I ended up remove/purging cairo-dock and installing from a ppa, there were several other problems, I had rosegarden/qsynth/JACK configured in Jaunty and it's totaly hosed in karmic :( [08:13] igge_: it did it all automatically here. [08:13] om26er: too late for him to catch it, but yeah, good idea! [08:13] syn-ack as long as I'm not missing anything necessary with a fresh install i'm happy with the upgrade [08:13] igge_: i just had to do 'ok' to the java eula [08:13] whats a good text editor for ubuntu, for c++ programming? [08:13] MinusSeven: try geany [08:13] ok, thanks [08:14] exodus_ms, I'd really reinstall fresh karmic and rebuild. :/. [08:14] * exodus_ms is lazy but agrees with syn-ack [08:14] Shwack, To each their own. :/ [08:14] empathy is broke [08:14] Dr_Willis: wierd.. but still... it gave you sun's java? so that can be considered some sort of default? in that case i'll go with that one.. [08:14] syn-ack well you said its becoming trivial i thought you were refering to a fresh install - is a fresh install really worth it? [08:14] jasonmch1istos: how can you say that [08:14] igge_: use the one from sun..is what i always do [08:15] Shwack, I think it is...

[08:16] syn-ack the only thing is I just switched to linux (about 7 days on it so far and loving it) so I'm not exactly sure of the *best* way to go about this. If I just backup my home folder on my 2n d partition and then do a fresh install and move my home folder I would be fine with that [08:17] gip: unrar -x archive.rar [08:17] gip with rar?

[08:20] Zahid: yes. its alwaysoutdated. because it gets updates so fast. [08:20] Bryce1, Ubuntu do not support features needed to connect to Windows 7 [08:20] any solution about this please [08:20] Zahid: either use the outdated one. or dont use the one in the repos.. and download/instgall the latest from their homepage.

And also, should i be using ext4 or ext3? [08:22] Lint: how would i do that? [08:22] Cosmic, 1366x768 [08:23] Bryce1, look in Local Security Policy applet in Administration section [08:23] Shwack, thats entirely up to you. On both counts, but I reccomend ext4 over 3 [08:23] whatever happened to ntfs or fuse? Shwack [08:23] Bryce1, you may be able to get it to work with cifs [08:23] Dr_Willis: because then it won't be using sun java.. it will be using gcj instead, no?

[08:23] hmm [08:23] is0lat3dsh33p: if there's a step down available that doesn't go too low, you could try bumping it down and seeing if Compiz works then - that error can sometimes be caused by the desired res being too much for the hradware w/ compiz [08:24] tishikawa2, still, smb2 is not supported [08:24] syn-ack thank you:) i'm currently using ext4 - also my .xsession.errors or wahtever file has quite a bit of stuff in it - is this normal/ [08:24] Shwack, Do you get your password wrong a lot?

I don't know the reason.

And PPAs don't have powerpc arch. [08:34] Draconis: always use the apt-get packages first.. avoide using the ones from adobes web site [08:34] is there a way to uninstall the new software center and then reinstall it to remove any errors that can be happening during the usage of the software center? [08:34] Draconis: installing ubuntu-restricted-extras should pull in flash and java and fontsm and some other bits you want [08:34] Dr_Willis, so should I go with flashplugin-installer like slytherin suggested? [08:34] exodus_ms: I am already running karmic. Why would I need a package from PPA? [08:34] ciao a tutti [08:35] uh, so try ubuntu-restricted-extras ?

[09:02] Zahid: i recall it being just 'sudo freshclam' the clamav docs/homepage proberly give details [09:02] Draconis: dont disable it remove all of the plugins then make sure gnash is not a selected package then reinstall nonfree [09:02] jonnymac: ha ha ha [09:02] and logout and login again [09:02] slytherin: will be back after i reinstall pulse [09:02] How do I make the full word "Saturday November 7" instead of "Sat Nov 7" on the panel? [09:03] sivang: try netbook remix [09:03] jonnymac: also start alsamixer from command line and see if you have all sound levels right [09:03] jasonmchristos: Why try UNR? [09:03] How do I make the full word "Saturday November 7" instead of "Sat Nov 7" on the panel? [09:03] jhb1608: I don't think there is an option. And it will eat lot of panel space. [09:04] jasonmchristos: why? is it tested and made specifically for the Nvidia ION chipset ? [09:04] wgrant: its designed for netbooks [09:04] jhb1608: right click on it, then choose the format [09:04] jasonmchristos: That is not relevant here. [09:04] jasonmchristos: cause if not, not much point in testing it [09:04] it's fine, I have a big lcd monitor [09:04] The kernel is the same. [09:04] wgrant: right [09:04] The infrastructure is the same. [09:04] exactly [09:04] and I trust sivang to know what he's doing. [09:04] jhb1608: as I said there is no option. [09:04] iceroot, it is fine, I have a big lcd monitor [09:04] Hmmm... [09:04] interesting [09:05] call tyrone then [09:05] wgrant: I'll try booting into the 9.10 kernel with recovery mode, am I supposed to have eth access there ? [09:05] sivang: Does gdm end up starting? [09:05] wgrant: nope [09:05] sivang: Or just flickers a lot? [09:05] jhb1608: hm, only working in kde panel, the gnome panel dont have that option [09:05] wgrant: VT just flickers endlessly [09:05] sivang: Are you using the proprietary driver? [09:05] ah then I can install KDE on ubuntu then? [09:05] jhb1608: kde is a complete desktop environment [09:06] wgrant: I will have to test this, there is a chance it's still using the nv one since I wasn';t able to get into the restricted driver manager [09:06] jhb1608: install 'kubuntu-desktop' and it should pull in all of kubuntu. [09:06] it's ok [09:06] jhb1608: yes just install kubuntu-desktop package then. [09:06] thanks [09:06] ubuntu comes with no garuntee and does not assume any liabilities for hardware damage [09:06] jhb1608: there might be a few quirks but it should work fine that way. [09:06] it's fine really. [09:06] sivang: OK. Try adding 'text' to the kernel boot line, to inhibit gdm from starting (while allowing everything else to start up normally) [09:06] how to create a net connection [09:07] wgrant: will do, thanks dude will you still be here in a couple of minutes ? [09:07] i would rather have the screen work than suspend work [09:07] sivang: I'll be here for a couple of hours yet. [09:07] I can switch back to GNOME if I feel uncomfy :) [09:07] wgrant: I have a hunch that gdm starting attempts are causing the flickering [09:07] wgrant: cool, see you in a bunch [09:08] howdy .. cant set screen res higher than 1024 since upgrade to karmic, intel mobo .. any fix for this? === LeNsTR|Sleep is now known as LeNsTR [09:09] jhb1608: I find kde4 a bit.. awkward. :) [09:09] it's fine. I will learn [09:10] alright going to bed [09:10] bye [09:10] kevinl: File a bug on launchpad. [09:10] hello everybody... after update to karmic, sometimes have a glitch: networkmanager icon appears as a black qadrat! changing appearance and/or put the network wire in and out fix the problem... [09:10] kevinl: Any idea which chipset you have? i845, i915, or something like that? [09:11] ubuntu is for ubunn00bz [09:11] Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL [09:12] cybic: what is dadrat? [09:12] i dont know if that answers you [09:12] but thats what lspci says [09:12] kevinl: OK. That's an i915. 'ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-video-intel' [09:12] kevinl: what is the driver specified in /etc/X11/xorg.conf? [09:12] slytherin, not dadrat, but a quadrat - a quadraphormic image (quader) [09:12] sorry, my type [09:13] my typo [09:13] nevermind [09:13] so - nobody ever seen this glitch? [09:13] slytherin, weird it all says "Configured Video Device" "Configured Monitor" etc [09:13] kevinl: OK, that's fine then. Run the command I gave, to file a bug. [09:14] cybic: it appears that it is not detecting the connection on boot but only when you reconnecting it. [09:14] why does iptables suck so much? [09:14] kevinl: do you see anything like "Driver"? [09:14] tishikawa2: I don't know. What gives you the idea that it does? [09:14] tishikawa2: PEBKAC? [09:14] tishikawa2: learn how to use it [09:14] slytherin, without connectin it should show the icon for not connected, but it's just an ugly black quader [09:15] there is no driver keyword [09:15] <_nix_> tishikawa2: wait what? [09:15] cybic: may be that is default for not connected. [09:15] weird thins is compiz is working fine [09:15] cybic: can you post a screenshot somewhere? [09:15] but i cant set a higher res. [09:15] cybic: could be the icon theme/cache got messed up. could try changing icon themes and see if it works better, then change it back. (i amjust guessinghere) [09:15] kevinl: Report a bug, please. [09:16] kevinl: It will be better if you answer the questions we are asking [09:16] why doesnt the rhythmbox plugin update my empathy status with songtitle [09:16] when I cpa large .tar file from my desktop to my desktop my terminal freezes [09:16] try doing bidirectional nat in particular [09:16] i ran the ubuntu bug command [09:16] i checked it [09:16] do i need to do anything else/ [09:16] Dr_Willis, exactly what i did before - but it happens every third time i'm coming back from standby ;) anoying :) [09:16] Shwack: how large is large> [09:16] kevinl: It should have opened up a Launchpad page in your browser. [09:16] slytherin, yeh - next time i see it [09:16] 3.6 gigs [09:17] cybic: with standby/suspend its hard to tell what gremlins are going on.. [09:17] 9.04 arrow keys don't work in rdp session [09:17] Dr_Willis, ;) [09:17] cybic: but only every 3rd standby? :) [09:18] Shwack: what has terminal got to do with copying? [09:19] slytherin Dr_Willis seemed to understand what i was asking the problem is solved [09:19] I do? [09:19] can i ask something [09:19] * Dr_Willis is more confused then ever. [09:19] k i'm copying a file in terminal and it hangs up [09:19] rdp session to windows 2003 [09:19] how is that not understood? [09:19] !ask | me____ [09:19] me____: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [09:19] 800x600 [09:19] why the sound is lower in ubuntu? [09:20] actually the cp command in the terminal gives no feedback till its done. So How are you sure its hung? [09:20] Strywgr: run alsamixer from command line and check if the sound levels are proper. [09:20] You said it was solved also.. :) so thats why i am confused. [09:20] Strywgr: curious, I have highter... surelly canonical changed ubuntu's sound system [09:21] THere was a lot of changes/tweaks in sound/pulse in 9.10 - its a little quirky in many ways here also [09:21] sorry. if i shrink a vista partition from in vista and then install from the live cd into the free space will that work as a dual boot or is there anything else i need to do? [09:21] Mine always starts Muted. [09:21] you asked me how big the file was, I checked the size of the file and realize it probably wasn't hung. [09:21] me____: That depends on how reliable the shrinking part is. [09:21] me____: That will work fine. [09:22] thank you [09:22] Shwack: Ok. :) I did recall seeing some cp variant/script that gave a little progress bar as it copied. which is handy in some cases [09:22] i was going to use the partition manager that comes with vista [09:22] how do I store settings in xawtv? [09:23] Dr_Willis, not - occasionally... any way to rebuld theme-cache? [09:23] salvea tutti [09:23] GuidMorrow: I believe there is a menu. [09:23] cybic: ive seen mention of it.. but i forget where i even saw it - was in some forum thread [09:23] quit [09:24] Dr_Willis, so, got to google ;) [09:24] Dr_Willis, thank you vary much :) [09:24] every thing is set in alsamixer. [09:25] Strywgr: all sound levels are high? [09:25] slytherin -- filed the bug. any other pointers for a fix? [09:25] yes they are. [09:25] sorry where is join's italy ubuntu [09:26] !it [09:26] 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) [09:26] I'm deleting the files but no free space coming up. What's happening? [09:26] kevinl: You might want to try removing your xorg.conf file and restart machine. make sure you take a backup first. [09:26] thanks === k is now known as Guest74197 [09:27] I presume everybody is still having the notify-osd one notification too low? ;o [09:28] how can i connect my ZTE reliance usb modem to my ubuntu 9.10 karmic... there isnt any wvdial here which i used in my earlier hardy??? [09:28] Dr_Willis, [09:28] Dr_Willis, ;) [09:29] tanamania: Do you really need wvdial? [09:29] <_nix_> tishikawa2: i suppose netfilter is capable of pretty much everything, maybe you need to read more documentation [09:30] wgrant: yay, thanks [09:30] I'm deleting the files but no free space coming up. What's happening? [09:30] wgrant: I rebuilt the driver for the new kernel and I got the best distro ever [09:30] Lint01: some probably still has the files open. [09:30] som program... [09:30] some [09:30] wgrant: so slick and cool, however boot up is longer then the previous release [09:30] <_nix_> Lint01: clean up trash bin as well? [09:30] now sound is working! [09:31] slytherin: i need i way to connect my data card.. whether by wvdial or else?? [09:31] tanamania: What happens when you plug in data card? [09:31] sivang: Great. Most of those nvidia-related bugs have been fixed, but at release it was a bit broke. [09:32] tanamania: I can see wvdial in karmic repository. You can't see it? ;o [09:32] wgrant: I always revert to the new nvidia installer from nvidia. It is superb [09:32] sivang: You *really* shouldn't do that. [09:32] wgrant: solves all your problems usually with a couple of text UI enters [09:32] does google offer a service similar to del.icio.us ? [09:32] _nix_: since when rm uses Trash? [09:32] i would like to store links, but would prefer to use something in the google toolset [09:33] wgrant: so I'll try now to reinstall using the restricted driver manager ? [09:33] slytherin: lsusb detects it.. then the network manager detects my vendor and service provider. it asks for my username and password and the number to dial which are provided to it.. but then it simply doesnt connect.. dunno why?? [09:33] <_nix_> Lint01: I didn't know you were on command line [09:33] tanamania: how did you try to connect it? [09:33] wgrant: what are you suggesting ? [09:34] I had 83 MB of free disk space and it suddently gone and cannot be reclaimed. What could cause this? [09:34] sivang: Uninstall the driver, and use jockey. [09:34] wgrant: ah jocky, so many things changed since I was last an ubuntu develoepr [09:34] :) [09:34] hi does any1 have the google android phone on linux platform? http://www.szprice.com/products/SciPhone-N21-Google-Android-Smart-Phone-With-Wifi-5-0MP-auto-focus-Camera_816.html# [09:34] sivang: It has been a while. Come back! [09:34] I have some questions about installin ubuntu on a p3 500mhz with 256meg of ram, who's the best to talk to? [09:34] !ask | thadthudpucker [09:34] thadthudpucker: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [09:35] slytherin: i gave the modprobe command for the kernel module entry.. then tried to connect it through the GUI network manager but it didnt connect.. didnt give any error msg lso.. [09:35] whats the minimum size for the root partition? [09:35] tanamania: hmm when doing modprobe did you try to provide vendor id and product id? [09:35] tanamania: You might want to try connecting in the terminal. See if that does not work too. [09:35] wgrant: I wish I could ! I just now starting to be a bit better aftet 2 years of having a health problem, and need to work for living so don't suppose will have too much time for contributing and getting backl into development [09:35] sivang: Yeah :( [09:35] hello [09:35] wgrant: hubackup is so poor and abandomed :( [09:35] thadthudpucker: Windows 2000 is better then Linux on old hardware like this [09:35] Lint01: Reboot into recovery mode and use fsck, and btw, have you tried to clean old packages? [09:36] wgrant: would you mind if I ask you a bit about the changes I see infront of me ? [09:36] sivang: Yep. And we still have no good backup tool by default. [09:36] Lint01: I was thinking that... [09:36] sivang: Sure. [09:36] wgrant: I know [09:36] i have problem in ubuntu after upgrade to 9.10 [09:36] <_nix_> thadthudpucker: i have ubuntu installed on a p3 700 Mhz machine with 256mb ram [09:36] thadthudpucker: You should use xubuntu or lubuntu [09:36] man, this kernel is much better for the atom [09:36] _nix_: what version are you using? [09:36] my machine is like a full blown development station and it's merely an atom + ION [09:36] massage root@malak$ # [09:37] <_nix_> thadthudpucker: I'm using kubuntu 9.10 [09:37] what i can do for this problem [09:37] slytherin: yeah.. i provided with the vendor and product id.. [09:37] slytherin: i used to do it the same way in hardy but there i had wvdial.. [09:37] _nix_: I'll give it a shot there... [09:37] wgrant: so, first of all, there's a longer boot time - I hunch that most of the hardware stuff is detection attempted before gdm even comes up [09:37] wgrant: specificallt, network [09:38] wgrant: could that contribute to the slowness ? [09:38] thadthudpucker: modern distros use too much memory, and old ones have thousands of security bugs and missing features [09:38] why is my "paste" button always grayed out? [09:38] <_nix_> thadthudpucker: I don't have much use for office applications. it works nicely for web browsing, some python programming, bittorent etc. [09:38] tanamania: wvdial is not part of default install now. you have to install it with apt-get or synaptic [09:38] after you do modprobe, what is the output of dmesg? [09:38] leaf-sheep: yeah.. but how?? [09:38] hmm, also, epiphany wouldn't let me put in passwords. it doesn't even show the dots that obscure the text [09:38] sivang: Shouldn't be. You could try re-profiling. I'm not sure how one does that with ureadahead or sreadahead or whatever we are using these days. [09:38] tanamania: Try "wvdial --help" or "man wvdial" for more information. [09:38] !fsck | Lint01 [09:38] Lint01: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot [09:39] slutherin: thats a deadlock state, i need internet to get wvdial and for internet i need wvdial!!! [09:39] whats the minimum size for the root partition? [09:39] hi all [09:39] leaf-sheep: wvdial is not a part of the deafult installation of karmic.. [09:39] norrec: i wouldnet try it with under 5gb. [09:39] ubuntu is constantly freezing up and i can only move the mouse, please help [09:39] i shutdown my "koala" last night [09:39] norrec: using right at 5 here. [09:39] and now cant login anymore :( [09:39] tanamania: Install it. [09:39] to3000: what kind of a sound card you have ? [09:39] !enter | LiCeT [09:39] LiCeT: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [09:40] wgrant: also, is the new screen in very high res the new splash ? [09:40] norrec : Ubuntu needs >= 4GB to install [09:40] sivang: i think is an hda intel [09:40] slytherin: isnt there any other way other than using wvdial?? [09:40] wgrant: at first I saw only the logo, the cricle logo, then after gdm came up [09:40] sivang: how do i find out [09:40] wgrant: I saw that "in progress" screen [09:40] please help me [09:40] hi *. I am having problems with video (with x11) since I upgraded to 9.10) on two different computers. Does anyone know a fix for this? [09:40] to3000: sudo lspci -v [09:40] to3000: look for the audio stuff [09:40] sorry ubottu [09:40] GuidMorrow: 1.8 GB is enough [09:41] sivang: usplash is the white Ubuntu logo on black background. Then gdm starts early, with xsplash (the scrolly progress bar thingy) running in front of it. [09:41] Dr_Willis, alright thanks, i was thinkin 5 but i didnt want to do it and have problems latr, although i think i might just give it 10 to be on the safe side, thanks [09:41] tanamania: I was expecting networkmanager would work. I have never used reliance cards. And this is one of the reasons I hate those usb pluggable internet devices. [09:41] wgrant: ah cool, and what is hda itnel ? [09:41] hello all, ubuntu loves you :) [09:41] oops [09:41] norrec: i always use at least 10 here. 20 may be safer.. depending on you rneeds [09:41] that was for soemone else :) [09:41] ubuntu: please do not use this nickname. [09:41] im on a livecd [09:41] to3000: I've had that kind of trouble when I had IRQ collision between my sound card and the mouse one [09:41] slytherin: even i was expecting it to work.. [09:42] to3000: if you can change the IRQ of teh sound card in the BIOS setup, to something unused that might solve it [09:42] to3000: but I'm not an expert [09:42] any ideas? [09:42] to3000: so YMMV [09:42] Dr_Willis, well its a server edition so i dont have to worry about the gnome, and its just gonna be a file server, i just wanted to partition off the data and the system in case something ever fucked up the install [09:42] sivang: Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02) [09:42] please help me, look here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/310444/ [09:42] ??? [09:42] to3000: can you see which IRQ it is using ? [09:42] to3000: it is supposed to be written there [09:42] believe it or not, but I have KK running live on it. [09:43] !help | nik_ [09:43] nik_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [09:43] *had that is, i was using the netbook edition.

[10:34] guntbert: Always [10:35] * om26er says silence is better than critisizing === ubuntunetsucks is now known as whereismynet [10:35] Haha [10:35] Nice. [10:35] hello can any one help me with some bash scripting? [10:35] Hi, my friends intalled 9.10 via wubi on the x64 windows 7; On selection of ubuntu from the boot menu he's dropped to the grub command-line [10:35] brime - perhaps #programming? [10:35] ok i'll try there [10:35] ^^ [10:35] * adalal says working things out is much better than staying quiet or hatin ubuntu [10:35] Tried to manually load the kernel and boot, but it gives me a kernel panic saying that the root fs cannot be mounted. [10:36] Any ideas on how to solve this? [10:36] ubuntu forums list all that i had done!! where can i get help then?? [10:36] letterbomb05: still here ...almost there ... [10:36] an hr? [10:36] whereismynet, what's wrong? [10:36] ok UBlondie. [10:36] whereismynet - what computer? Laptop etc. What version of Ubuntu? Jaunty? What kernel were you running on Arch when your net worked? [10:36] wowm srry didn'y think it would work.. :X [10:37] he keeps florgetting his nickname [10:37] * Deathvalley122 thinks the developers need to updatw wubi [10:37] or could be she i suppose [10:37] update*** === sivang is now known as sivang|afk [10:37] I think Wubi needs a stake through the heart. :) [10:37] No way, spend time on seomthing that's not wubi [10:37] i think wubi needs to go away... [10:37] :) [10:37] chu_ , laptop, ubuntu 9.04, the net never works , it works every where but on ubuntu!! [10:37] Wubi should cease to exist. ;3 [10:37] I always reccomend virutalbox instead of wubi to my friendsd at work [10:37] whats the problem with wubi? [10:38] nah Dr_Willis [10:38] someoneo0: it has lots of issues.. and noone really seemsd to know how to fix them or work on them or trouble shoot it. [10:38] people use wubi [10:38] whereismynet: Which iso did you download for installing Ubuntu? [10:38] dp 9.10 have wicd?? [10:38] 9.04 [10:38] gnome [10:38] and it takes up space on the cd and beginners think thatusing wubi is the 'normal' way to install linux. [10:38] hello guys, i wanna create a network bridge for a vlan device "bond0.2" - do both the bridge and the device itself need an ip address? [10:38] cause they don't want to install it fully [10:38] Which, though. [10:39] whereismynet - yeah, what kernel on Arch are you running? I think the problem could be related to what drivers come with your kernel, I know I had to manually update to a newer kernel for Jaunty to work (It was actually an Arch build of 2.6.30-RC if I recall correctly) [10:39] i wonder why the makers of wubi dont have a support forum of theur on... they probably could help... [10:39] jbunting, 9.04 , gnome i downlaoded , [10:39] but then again [10:39] Deathvalley122: whichis also doable in a more relieable maner with virtualboxx. but go do what you want. I for one cant help with wubi any more since i gave up on it. [10:39] people use dual boot [10:39] Dual-boot is better than opting for Wubi. [10:40] letterbomb05: ...actually, what do you get when you do ls -l in terminal of the various directories? [10:40] partitioning isn;t my hobi.. [10:40] Dual booting, virtualbox are the top :) wubi is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy down at the bottom. :) [10:40] someoneo0 - it's not too hard, there are a few good tutorials, check google... [10:40] learning how disks are partioned and laid out. is a very handy bit of knowledge to learn [10:40] virtualbox eats resources on my pc [10:40] isn't* [10:40] UBlondie, a list of all my files [10:41] Deathvalley122: what are your specs? [10:41] chu_, i dint cheked the kernal , it was latest ddownloaded 2 days ago, the point is the net had refuseed to work on ubuntu only , not only arch every thing i tried even the iso as old as 2007 did worked to set up the net!! [10:41] should also show all the file permissions [10:41] 120GB pent 4 processor with 768mbs [10:41] UBlondie, test.php has different permissions to the others [10:41] whereismynet - just download Ubuntu 9.10 [10:42] letterbomb05: ok ...maybe get other files to emulate that and have same file permissions? [10:42] whereismynet : i had some problems like this, when i forgot to give permission in ths usergroup settings - to give permission in the ethernet [10:42] i'll try UBlondie [10:42] ok , will give it a try , have u used it , do it have wicd preinstalled in iso , btw i am using sabayon 5 gnome , it has every thing except the kitchen sink!! [10:42] letterbomb05: I used something like chmod go+rwx [10:43] letterbomb05: ...but from what I read. chmod 777 should do what we're talking about [10:43] it would be nice if they made a virtualbox with low specs pc's [10:43] hey! masters of partitioning pls help me! I have a netbook with 2GB SSD and 8GB SD. I wanna install UNR. [10:43] seeker_, thanks , but i did checked for that also [10:43] sorry [10:43] I try googling it at one time and didn't find squat [10:44] whereismynet - I'm actually using 9.10 beta (the release doesn't work for me... or at least not via update and I cbf installing from cd at the moment (exam week atm)), but *everything* works for my laptop here, which is very nice. [10:44] Deathvalley122, virtual box eats only what it is given!! [10:44] UBlondie: letterbomb05 both versions are - "evil" and should be unnecessary (except for a short time for testing purposes - but never as "solution") [10:44] balazs: / on sd, /home on ssd i wuld use [10:44] balazs: 2gb is not enough for / [10:44] guntbert: thanks for info .... [10:44] UBlondie, all permissions are set to the same as test.php now and they still don't work (using chmod 777) [10:44] Hello ! I'm wondering why flash lags on my computer with 6800 GT and on my laptop which has some old ATi card does not lag at all [10:44] I still say they need to make one for low spec pc's [10:45] ch_, downloading 9.10 soon [10:45] letterbomb05: never!! use chmod 777 [10:45] iceroot, what should I be using >_> [10:45] something light [10:45] guntbert: when things don't work, I keep trying different things until it works [10:45] letterbomb05: chown [10:45] Deathvalley122, what prob do u having with virtual box?? [10:45] major lags [10:45] and lockups [10:45] letterbomb05: it's weird? ..I think I'm out of ideas ? ... ok, *one* more thought [10:45] Deathvalley122, what exactly r u trying in virtaal box [10:45] UBlondie: of course - but don't forget to switch back afterwards [10:46] well [10:46] well.. [10:46] ok UBlondie, i have to go in 5 anyway [10:46] why isn't openssh-server in the synaptic package manager? [10:46] virtual box [10:46] letterbomb05: put the contents of the php test file at the top of your index.php file ...see if you get the test results come up? [10:46] Temujin - check your sources list. [10:46] ublondie, they wont. [10:46] I have windows xp installed on it and it only takes 192 mbs and it still lags bad [10:46] Deathvalley122, u trying to dig a well on virtualbox?????? [10:46] chu_, what's that? [10:47] hhmmm ... [10:47] Deathvalley122, i installed win xp with 32 mb ram [10:47] Temujin, I see :) Let me just find where ssh-server is available... [10:47] uhh UBlondie [10:47] Temujin: first click on "refresh" [10:47] openssh-server* [10:47] do someone know a program like shred för gnome? [10:47] UBlondie, I was wrong, it does work... [10:47] !info openssh-server | Temujin [10:47] Temujin: openssh-server (source: openssh): secure shell server, an rshd replacement. In component main, is optional. Version 1:5.1p1-6ubuntu2 (karmic), package size 278 kB, installed size 748 kB [10:47] letterbomb05: ooh! :D [10:47] I think it's progress!? [10:47] Deathvalley122, and it still runs better than physical install [10:48] hi i want to install karmic using a usb stick but i couldn't find a "howto" document. could you please point me one? [10:48] i know what it is thanks [10:48] Yeah but this just makes the problem more retarded than it was before... what to do now UBlondie ? >_> [10:48] lol how can that be possible the requirements are 192mbs? [10:48] letterbomb05: could that mean there is some sort of error in your index file? ... [10:48] letterbomb05: yes, but now you know the file works ....there must be an error somewhere ... [10:48] Temujin: I thought so, but that link also tells you *where" to find it [10:48] #india-computers [10:49] letterbomb05: go through the file now, bit by bit, making sure each section works properly [10:49] link? [10:49] how can I check my harddisk for any badsectors or any other problems [10:49] UBlondie, I just made a rather noob error. >_> [10:49] #windows [10:49] Temujin - mmm, openssh-server is in the repos for me, open up a terminal and try "sudo apt-get install openssh-" and press tab (don't press enter), see what comes up. [10:49] bye all ,thnks all [10:49] letterbomb05: yeah? ...what? [10:49] you know i do get the impreesion that whereismynet is taking the wee wee [10:49] UBlondie, lets just leave it now as working, and thanks very much for your help :P [10:49] whereismynet: I didn't know they had a channel here for windows lol [10:49] letterbomb05: ok ....I hope you get it sorted. I'm glad if I might have been of some help? :) [10:49] Temujin: it tells you that it is in section main, so you *really* should see it - thats why I asked you to "refresh" [10:50] ah he/she left [10:50] UBlondie, you have been, much appreciated. [10:50] fcn: you can use unetbootin and a ubuntu iso file to make a 'bootable live-cd setup on a flash drive' [10:50] chu_, it lists the server [10:50] what happens if you try to install said server? [10:51] i must be one of the lucky ones my 9.10 upgrade works [10:51] bye for now [10:51] * chu_ jealous [10:51] fcn: there is an inbuilt tool calle usb-creater in the live CD [10:51] 'could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock [10:51] ahh! [10:51] close synaptic :p [10:51] ok i think it's installing [10:52] hi [10:52] Cool, let's hope so. [10:52] i did try doing this yesterday though. maybe i had symantic open then too [10:52] Hello ! I'm wondering why flash lags on my computer with 6800 GT and on my laptop which has some old ATi card does not lag at all [10:52] synaptic* [10:52] only one package manager type program is allowed to work at a time. [10:52] fcn: what system are you running currently [10:53] apparle, jaunty === choonming_ is now known as choonming [10:53] In firestarter I keep seeing connections to amazonaws and I Googled it and see it is a spam thing. HOw do I get rid of it please? [10:54] fcn: Install the package called 'usb-creator' and then use it..... [10:54] ok thanks apparle [10:55] Mmm, Live OS on a USB, could be worth it. [10:55] fcn: you will need a download karmic iso of course :) [10:55] *downloaded [10:55] installed. thanks [10:55] fcn: see this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick [10:55] guntbert, I already did :) [10:55] fcn: :) [10:55] apparle, thanks I'm reading it right now [10:55] Ascavasaion: use an adblock extension for your browser for starters perhaps [10:56] hi [10:56] dr. willis : what do i do after dowloading unetbootin [10:56] seeker_: run it and use it. :) [10:56] fcn: I installed karmic through the USB creator in jaunty so I recommend you try it [10:57] apparle : i am confused, as to how to proceed after downloading. [10:57] usb-creator tool in ubuntu works about the same as unetbootin. but the usb-creator tool can also set up a 'peristant save file' on the flash drive which is handy [10:57] i have already installed 9.10 in my laptop [10:57] hey I don't appear to have this "software center" I'm reading about. what is the app called so I can try fetching it? [10:57] seeker_: Plz explain what are you trying to do again... so that I can help [10:57] seeker_: thers the usb-creator tool in 9.10 that you should be using then. [10:57] i am trying to help my friend - whose PCS wont boot from CD - for installing [10:57] whamoo, are you on karmic ? [10:57] yes [10:57] Dr. willis - how, please [10:57] System -> admin -> usb startup disk creator [10:57] its right there in the menus... [10:58] whamoo - software-center [10:58] whamoo, look at the bottom of the applications menu [10:58] my eeepc was using the eeepc kernel in 9.04 and when i upgraded to 9.10 it is still using that old kernel.. how do i install a newer version of the kernel for 9.10? [10:58] could be centre [10:58] should i have a CD / DVD in my drive for writing it to an USB [10:58] seeker_: it can use ISO files you download. [10:58] seeker_, no need [10:58] grub2 can even boot ISO files.. :) but thats a bit too much for now. [10:58] i have already downloaded a 9.10 - through which I did clean install in my laptop [10:59] should i use that image to write to usb [10:59] seeker_: try the application as Dr_Willis suggests..... connect the flash drive, format it , locate the ISO you want to put into the flash drive, select whether you want persistence or not and then press ok [10:59] seeker_: yes [10:59] seeker_: if you got a 9.10 image.. then.. yes.. [10:59] seeker_, that would do [10:59] neat. it seems to have disappeared from my menus when I implememnted the ubuntustudio menu, i guess. think I'll add it back in somewhere, thanks [10:59] Its a rather straight forward too, to use.. just DONT et the wrong device for the flash drive [10:59] or i just plug in an USB - and use the USB startup Disk creator [10:59] hi [11:00] !hi | farfasound [11:00] farfasound: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! [11:00] Plug in flash, run the command.. point it to iso file... let it do its work [11:00] apperle - what is the 'persistance' or not - please explain, as my friends house is very far to go once more if there is any mistake [11:01] seeker_: persstance lets you keep your changes saved to the flash drive as well. You may as well make a persistant save file of a few mb depending on the flash size [11:01] ubuntu is always using my connection to download shit and fucking up my poker games. How can i figure out the god damn cause and stop it? I have auto updates turned off [11:01] seeker_: i recommend to take also a look at www.linuxliveusb.com. nice implementation of ubuntu 9.10 usb stick with persistant function. [11:01] ariqs, watch the language please [11:01] ariqs - how do you know this? [11:01] dr_willis: what is that launcher called on the bottom of my desktop http://imagebin.org/70809 [11:02] I get an error running the installation file .bin Adobe AIR (hardy 64bit) Error loading the runtime (libnss3.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64) [11:02] dr. willis & apperle & amatux - thanks to you all, in case of any problem i will come back to you all on monday evening (indian time) [11:02] I have a networking problem; [11:02] chu_ my connection is being bottlenecked downloading when I'm not doing anything by my choice. [11:02] eddym: Why are you asking? It's your desktop. ;o [11:03] eddym: one of the many annoying 'docks' people use. looks like AWN to me [11:03] !awn [11:03] Avant Window Navigator is a dock-like navigation bar for the Linux desktop that positions itself at the bottom of the screen. Homepage http://wiki.awn-project.org/ - Awn-Manager can be found in Universe from Hardy (8.04) onwards. [11:03] I want to monitor my tcp connections in reference to programs [11:03] eddym: Looks like Gnome-Do to me. [11:03] or just be told what the heck ubuntu does to screw with me [11:03] thanks guys its driving me crazy [11:03] need to remove it lol [11:03] eddym: gnome-do has a docky theme that i much perfer to most other docks [11:03] hey guys would someone be able to help me install ubuntu on a eeepc with multibooting? [11:03] arYeah, it's gnome-do Docky themed [11:04] eddym: You should change the theme. [11:04] i think its gnome do but need to edit the settings [11:04] but that dosent look like my gnome-do dock but i guess it has doferen tthemes also [11:04] i have a free 18 gbs of unused space ready to go [11:04] but ive never installed it manually before [11:04] how do i get to the settings [11:04] wow software center is a lot faster than synaptic [11:04] Oh yea. it has a gnome-do icon at the front.. it must be gnome-do's docky theme [11:04] Dr_Willis: Look at the icon (Gnome-Do) at the far left of the dock. [11:04] ith networking; using Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04; running on a flashdrive version at a networked windows computer. I am trying to fix an HP mini, that was loaded with the Mi version of ubuntu. Couldn't get the network connections to work, so I searched forums and am working on an install of WICD. Problem is, I can't get to the network to fix the errors, and the flashdrive version I am using isn't persistent, so I can't carry it over. I get these specific error [11:04] s trying to use a wicd_1.6.2-2_all.deb file: [11:04] error Dependency is not satisfiable: python-urwid. I have tried pulling in a python-urwid .deb file, but get errors with that.

[11:05] ariqs - I'm interested in how you not it's coming from Ubuntu? [11:05] like tcpview for windows [11:05] ariqs: iftop? [11:05] chu_, because I don't have anything else running? [11:05] ariqs, maybe it's because of your ISP [11:05] dr_willis:thanks all adjusted how can i change them on it i presume in the settings [11:06] !firestart | ariqs [11:06] Sorry, I don't know anything about firestart [11:06] !info firestarter [11:06] firestarter (source: firestarter): gtk program for managing and observing your firewall.

I'm wondering why flash lags on my computer with 6800 GT and on my laptop which has some old ATi card does not lag at all [11:07] network for 9.10 desktop error?. [11:08] Eww, don't over-populate the sys-tray! :p [11:08] dekkong - is 6800 GT nvidia? [11:08] i lose my language setting for my keyboard after each reboot, with ubuntu 9.10, how can i fix this? [11:08] dekkong, do you have the right driver loaded for nvidia card? [11:08] i_is_broke, I don't have a firewall... [11:08] dekkong, flash always does crappy things [11:08] ariqs, thats why i suggested it. [11:09] Flash is pretty good for me actually, just don't try it under heavy-load... [11:09] ariqs - This is why I was asking if you were sure it was Ubuntu :) [11:09] i_is_broke, why do I want a firewall monitor when i don't have a firewall? [11:09] you know what would be a nice feature for gparted? a way to convert primary partitions to logical partitions by expanding the adjacent extended partition [11:09] Random832: i imagine thats harder then it sounds.. or it would be in there. [11:09] I want a program that monitors tcp connections in relation to the program using them [11:10] chu_: yes [11:10] anyone know how to make my sound card louder on dell B130 laptop? [11:10] !noob [11:10] Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. [11:10] i_is_broke: yes [11:10] fcn: yeah well not this much :/ [11:10] dekkong - what drivers? [11:10] Dr_Willis, if you're careful you can do it with fdisk; I've seen instructions for it before... but fdisk isn't for everyone [11:10] chu_: Nvidia drivers 185 [11:10] mmm, same as me [11:10] chu_, this has been an ongoing thing with ubuntu for me for a long time. I come in here every couple months complaining about it. Whatever nonsense ubuntu come with that thinks it can bottleneck my slow connection when I need it is freaking tarded ;P [11:11] chu_: I've had this problem forever [11:11] chu_: kinda annoying [11:11] and the programmers that implemented it should be shot ;p [11:11] (it requires memorizing or recording what cylinder the partition ends on, deleting it, and recreating it with the exact same positions - easy to screw up and you lose everything) [11:11] *what cylinder begins and ends on i mean [11:11] I have two microphone on my laptop. Intern, and the other via USB, Neither of them has planed to work in the past 45 minutes i'm working on it. Alsamixer shows that everything is open, and no mute. Any Idea ? [11:11] you don't need to configure openssh server for it to work do you? [11:11] chu_: and I'm sure there aint nothing wrong with my card [11:12] after installing ubuntu 9.10 i dont have xorg.conf in /etc/X11 [11:12] chu_: but I've always had this problem in "ubuntu" [11:12] thanks guys still a pain in the a$$ [11:12] should i not have an xorg.conf ? [11:12] how can i change themes on it [11:12] under pref? [11:12] sidewalk: thats normal [11:12] Dr_Willis: should i not have one? [11:12] xorg.conf is tiny in 9.04 compared to what it used to be like in the old days, maybe they got rid of it entirely in 9.10 - X still runs right? [11:13] eddym: clarify your question.. assume we all have the attention span of a 3 yr old.. :) [11:13] chu_: should I try another flash player like gnash or ? [11:13] !lucid [11:13] Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l02bhwofEqw for announcement video. [11:13] sidewalk: i have several machines with no xxorg.conf [11:13] So... I could easily check this in windows using tcpview. Does linux not have a program similar to tcpview? [11:13] dekkong - just doing some googling :p [11:13] anyone know how to make my sound card louder on dell B130 laptop? [11:13] yes it works [11:13] chu_: lol i've done that for the past 2 years ^ :D [11:13] so where do the x configuration settings live - all the stuff that used to be in xorg.conf and XF86Config before that [11:13] lucid is a long term release so. gnome-shell in an LTS don't look good to me [11:13] Dr_Willis: okey, well im having problems with my keyboards layout being set to US after reboot... i want to have a different keyboard layout [11:13] Microphone Problem : I have two microphone on my laptop. Intern, and the other via USB, Neither of them has planed to work in the past 45 minutes i'm working on it. Alsamixer shows that everything is open, and no mute. Any Idea ? [11:13] Random832: its been slowly moved to be auto configuring more and more [11:14] dr_willis: lol, it is ok.. im sure i can get it from the online search.. since now i know the prg and settings panel... dr_w where are you from? [11:14] right, but what if you need to change something - like enable shmconfig for gsynaptics [11:14] not that I can google right now because some retarded part of ubuntu is hogging my connection as we speak [11:14] I mean, there _are_ configuration things that are a matter of preference and so can't be "automatic" [11:14] do I need to activate something after changing /etc/hosts ? [11:14] is it possible to install 9.10 on unused space? [11:14] alexb5, what do you mean on unused space === _newbie4 is now known as RussellAlan [11:15] OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display ':0.0' ....How can i corrct this error when i try to run my opengl program? [11:15] Dr_Willis: the persistent flashdrive partition you were talking about earlier: can you do that with Hardy Heron 8.04? [11:15] ariqs, fwiw ...I my computer doesn't seem to have the problem that you're experiencing. Updates don't happen unless a user accepts it [11:15] ariqs: you can have it as a two step solution: 1) use iptraf or iftop what connection uses the bandwidth 2) use lsof -i to see what process uses what connection [11:16] dekkong - then you've probably found all I can :p there's a proble here (re: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1040689) which involves the 6800 GT, there's a solution link posted, but you have probably already tried? [11:16] random832: as in i have 18gbs of unformatted space on a netbook computer [11:16] and i have to install things manually [11:16] gmcpcs: no idea. that old a release.. it might work. try it and see.

Maybe some of your neighbours are "borrowing" your internet connection... [11:20] no, no wireless network [11:20] ariqs: you're welcome :-) [11:22] lsof -i does it all by itself, guntbert [11:22] I didn't need IPTraf that I see [11:23] dekkong - I may have found a temporary "solution" - there's this one that uses MPlayer instead of Firefox (assuming you aren't going fo interaction, i.e. you're watching flash movies? not playing flash games?) [11:24] the downloading stopped just after I got IPTraf, however, so I get to miss it for now.

[11:25] Dr_Willis: using crossover [11:25] ArmyMan007: then read th crossover docs i guess. [11:25] Dr_Willis: i'm in the installation of steam [11:25] Dr_Willis: does it matter/ [11:25] ? [11:25] ArmyMan007: does what matter? is it installing? or not. [11:25] guntbert, I don't, but I know what it isn't, such as my connection to freenode [11:25] Steam client is a little quirky in wine. but it does work [11:26] Dr_Willis: it's in the installation process, just won't let me choose my ubuntu drive [11:26] ArmyMan007: i basically just clicked next, next , next.. and it installed [11:26] ariqs: ok - I thought I missed a feature :) [11:26] Dr_Willis: it seems to install in C:, probbly in my windows drive [11:26] hey guys [11:26] there's any way to create a folder in my server that is stored in other server? [11:26] hey pH_ [11:26] ArmyMan007: err.. No.. wine makes up 'fake' windows drives... [11:26] like a link to other server? [11:27] but with a normal folder [11:27] ArmyMan007: so C: is actually .wine/drives/C_Drive or somthing [11:27] oh [11:27] well [11:27] i'll try and look it up [11:27] pH_ - you can do a sort of ssh tunneling I believe, I saw some posts about this recently, let me go check [11:27] because I have a hosting server with unlimited space and a VPN with 10GB. [11:27] just a sec [11:27] wine does NOT need windows at all. [11:27] no idea on crossover. [11:27] chu_: great :) [11:27] in karmic in guest session, there is no way to use networkmanager? sudo does not work with it. and I can't run it as it [11:27] (04:57:34 IST) tgpraveen1: says only root can run it :-( [11:29] Hi everyone, it is soo unfortunate that 9.10 has some serious issues! Firefox keeps crashing and Evolution crashes as soon as i try to open a video or OO attachment! Any temp solutions around? [11:29] pH_ - It may appear to be a little off-topic at first, but keep reading :p http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1314970 [11:29] chu_: haha ok :) [11:29] pH_: Places -> Connect to Server -> Choose ssh as the type, fill in username and hostname, and check the bookmark option [11:29] naftilos76 - use Karmic beta [11:30] geirha: it's two ubuntu servers [11:30] chu_ - you mean that beta is more stable than the off, release?

[11:31] ok guys guys..we can no longer use the thousands of gdm themes available because of this new change...however there muct be a location where the images or links to themes can be accessed to change the appearance of gdm no? [11:31] nfs is handy if the servers are going to be always up. [11:31] when I change settings they don't change the behaviour of the snow, why? [11:31] * soreau uninstalls Trezker [11:31] coz_: gdm uses the wallpaper in the xsplash dirctory for its background.. if you want to change that [11:32] does ubuntu need to be in sleep or hibernation for WOL to work? [11:32] I look at the code and there seems to be a handler for setting changes... [11:32] * soreau reinstalls coz_ [11:32] http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SSH#Mounting_a_Remote_Filesystem_with_SSHFS [11:32] Dr_Willis, yeah I got that far but the actual login is what I am after [11:33] coz_: I got grub. xplash, and gdm all using the same customuzed image file from the xsplas directory here [11:33] I'm stacked with new gdm configuration. [11:33] Trezker: Did you restart compiz and ccsm after installing snow? [11:33] Dr_Willis - Where is the xsplash dir? You have peaked my interests :p [11:33] coz_: 'locate xsplash' :) [11:33] Dr_Willis, I have the background image changed which is cool...but that dark log in ?

[11:36] chu_: same directgory - its the throbber [11:36] chu_, if I understand yhour question [11:36] chu_: or ya mean the wallpaper? thats in the wallpapers dir. [11:36] oh the throbber [11:36] So, the throbber is what changes the backgrounds? [11:36] the self-changeing wallpaper is defined by a xml file alongside the wallpaper images it uses [11:36] I just want the space pictures :p [11:36] throbber = animaged thing [11:36] Yep [11:36] Coo [11:36] chu_: they are in the wallpaper dirs [11:36] Cool* [11:37] Most problem, there is no sections "[servers]", so new gdm ignore such strings in /etc/gdm/custom.conf [11:37] * leaf-sheep part 0 [11:37] Meh. [11:37] hmm, compiz --replace seems to have made my gnome panel invisible [11:37] So I can't set 0=None, or juset comment 0=Standart out [11:37] ah, there it is [11:37] what's the command to sleep and hibernate? === MadMax is now known as MaxSid [11:38] Trezker: Click on where it is supposed to be?

[11:38] yay, now the settings are working, thanks [11:39] Any one using brother scanner ? i have a question here. I installed the brscan and the scanned picture default save as /home/brscan . how do i change this default directory [11:39] Trezker: If you want more plugins, see the link I gave you [11:39] now I'm ready for a snowy christmas [11:39] Anyone hears me ?

[11:41] vzhen, do you use Xsane as imaging-software ? [11:42] a [11:42] yes, i use that [11:43] how to change login screen in karmic [11:43] vzhen, then in xsane you can most likely set locations [11:43] No sorry ...i dont use it ....Xsane not working on me ......so i just gimp and the scan tool from brother website [11:43] pratik_narain: the wallpaper is stored in /usr/share/images/xsplash [11:43] Shouldn't openGL be installed by default with Ubuntu 9.10 installation? [11:43] paranoid_ndroid: its tweakable in a few other limited ways also. [11:43] oops wrng nick [11:44] pratik_narain: its tweakable in a few other limited ways also. [11:44] Dr_Willis Do you think, there is way to setup new gdm withou X? [11:44] what is the best way to speed up ubuntu 9.10.. i presume by not adding heavy effects [11:44] Valmon: that dosent make much sence.. but im not sure what you are trying to do [11:44] Dr_Willis: what about earlier gdm themes [11:44] coz_, i dont use xsane, it not working on me ....so i just use gimp and the scan tool from solution brother website.

[11:45] Dr_Willis vnc+gdm [11:45] vzhen, oh i see [11:45] ok thanx [11:45] Valmon: you could make vncserver run gdm or at last ive done so ages ago.. [11:45] Isn't that the right place to get help with Ubuntu or am I wrong?!!! [11:45] coz:ibm laptop t61 duo core is there a way to check in linux [11:45] Valmon: i tend to just ssh in, start vncserver as the user i want to connect as. [11:45] cant f1nd cann3l for programmers [11:45] Dr_Willis Yeah, that's what I try to do ) [11:45] hi guys, I have 2 laptops conetcted to a router (eth), both use internet fine and have openssh-server installed. But i got no success on ping and ssh connection from one to another. Any idea? [11:46] Valmon: using gdm + vncserver you lose the 'persistant' running feature of vnc [11:46] eddym, well that is all I wanted to know other than the video chip in terminal lspci | grep -i vga [11:46] hey guys, would someone be able to help me install ubuntu manually?

[11:47] eddym, ok did you already install the nvidia driver for that? [11:48] alexb5, ah ok then I am the wrong person for that job [11:48] coz _: ive got ubuntu installed on other computers, this is the first one that has me stumped and ive never had to do an installation manually before [11:48] Can someone help me in installation openGL?

[11:48] coz _: i dont mind using grub though, thats not the main issue, the main issue is just trying to install it thats all [11:48] le me check under system [11:48] coz [11:49] Dr_Willis Yes, it works that way on januty [11:49] eddym, that will certainly speed things up system/administration/hardware drivers [11:49] Can someone help me here?

[11:51] coz_: i did not mess with settings in nvida left them default.. [11:51] eddym, but is there a driver version listed under system/administration/hardware drivers for your card [11:51] eddym, ok [11:51] jackcogswell: what game is this?

[11:53] The driver is installed properly, the device is recognised in ifconfig, networkmanager, and wicd, and the light comes on [11:53] eddym, well karmic is better at detecting hardware and should most likely know what is needed but which drivers for which hardware would be the question [11:53] but neither wicd or networkmanager can see any networks [11:53] the only error in dmesg is [ 2267.826875] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready [11:53] naught101_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[11:54] coz_: i am familiar with device manager in windows and u can see if there is a bang if something is missing.. but not sure if all my drivers are correct in ubuntu [11:54] can anyone please tell me what the name of the software/application is that controls the way monitors are displayed/laid out? (for dual monitors etc) i'm having a minor mishap atm [11:54] Dr_Willis: that's the error I get [11:55] jackcogswell: last ive ever seen somthing mention about wanting 'gl' stuff it ment i needed to install the proper 3d video card drivers for my video card. [11:55] warning: The VAD has been replaced by a hack pending a complete rewrite [11:55] K2 - Fatal Error: OpenGL 2.0 not available. [11:55] jackcogswell: and whats your video card? [11:55] eddym, right I understand... well if the hardware is working then the drivers are installed .... you have to test your hardware either during livecd which would be the best way to see if the hardware is detected and working [11:55] MurielGodoi: You are pinging via ip? no firewall rules setup> [11:55] eddym, or after installation [11:55] anyone? [11:56] Dr_Willis: it's intel buit-in [11:56] Ever since, i upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 , my PC cant boot up.. So i burned new Ubuntu 9.10 image Live CD, and tried to mount back the drive..

[11:56] helle: it prob xorg.conf but you maybe able to nvidia app if you use nvidia card. [11:56] coz_: for u 9.10 [11:56] jackcogswell: do other 3d games work? [11:56] eddym, I would use the 9.10 live cd because of it's better hardware detection capabilities [11:56] Is there a sane gcc somewhere in ubuntu packages (One tha *CAN* create executable should be great...) :((( [11:56] coz _ : thanks for the page mate , i dont have that option under the installer though\ [11:57] EasyTUX: you did install the build-essential package? [11:57] Dr_Willis: yep , and when trying to ip broadcast just the router answers, no firewalls at first glance [11:57] Dr_Willis: I didn't try before that's the first 3D game I try on Linux [11:57] coz_: all i have is : use the entire hard drive, or select partitions manually [11:57] coz_: when i dl sw for ubuntu 9.10 do i use 32 or 64 bit how do i know what to use my machine is 32 [11:57] jackcogswell: i would try others in the repos.. and try the games at http://en.djl-linux.org/ [11:57] there's just an application in the menu which allows you to configure it... i just need the name of it so i can start it from shell [11:57] eddym, hold on === Cosmo-san1 is now known as Cosmo-san [11:57] coz_: sw and apps ... holding on [11:58] jackcogswell: its possible your video card drivers are not doing proper 3d.

[12:35] penguin42: its because i killed metacity in gnome and want to "append" it on the running X display again. [12:35] CptnAwesome, is the timezone correct? how far is the clock off? [12:36] penguin42: for educational purposes ;) [12:36] otto_: Oh, it's almost certainly :0 then unless you have a very odd setup [12:36] android_ani_: is there any place i could read on that? === carlos is now known as Guest87054 [12:37] penguin42: it just shows "X0". when typing "metacity -d X0" or "-d localhost:X0" its unable to open X display.

[12:37] CptnAwesome: is your hardware clock setup right? [12:38] ortsvorsteher, its set to gmt afaik [12:38] CptnAwesome, sounds like the timezone is wrong, IIRC, you can change it with 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata' [12:38] Guys how to upgrade wine to development version in Karmic [12:38] i'll reboot and check the bios clock [12:38] back soon [12:38] janisozaur : it wont make much of a difference i guess..unless its a really critical system process...might be a few millisecs :) [12:38] penguin42: seems to work better. thx. is there a "command" to list running displays, so i have not to ls /tmp/.X11...? === choonming_ is now known as choonming [12:38] How can I add glib2 devel : apt-get install libglib2.0-dev (using "apt-cache search glib2 | grep dev" is good for guessing... ;) ) [12:39] otto_: I don't think so, I've never seen someone want to do it before to be honest [12:39] android_ani_: i see. i might go for rdtsc then, thanks [12:40] penguin42: :) k thanks [12:40] Axz, you can get 1.132 from the wine team's PPA, dunno if thats the devel version [12:40] janisozaur: may i know for what exactly you ve devised 2 algos? === eGin is now known as Gineering [12:41] penguin42: btw just fyi: "metacity -d :0" would work instead of "export ..." too :p [12:41] Axz, oh and 1.2 also. [12:41] otto: Yeh, but does it set the DISPLAY variable correclty so that anything else that starts gets the :0 ? === McPeter_ is now known as McPeter [12:41] penguin42: ah okay [12:41] android_ani_: nvidia cuda vs cpu 1-thread vs multi-thread, mainly. also there are some optimizations i have to commit to the algorithm and i have to check which actually speed it up [12:42] android_ani_: in case you're wondering it's a simple median filter [12:42] johnBond: [12:42] durt, yeah just figured its simple just "sudo apt-get install wine1.2" will do the job [12:43] nice and easy thanks [12:43] lolzz CUDA is so recent...good to see peole stay upto date [12:44] Axz, ya I guess 1.2 is available for KK in the repos [12:44] android_ani_: recent? it launched like more than two years ago [12:44] does ubuntu verify the gpg signatures of the repository against different sources and repositories? [12:44] penguin42: awww! it just works when i start metacity with the in gnome logged in user. from a terminal as root, i cant start metacity to append. "unable to open display :0. no protocolspecified." how can i overcome this? [12:44] rotorr, yes if you inport the key [12:44] *import [12:44] rotorr: It just verifies that they're signed by a known key. [12:44] durt: how can i do this? [12:44] android_ani_: well, gtg, thanks for your help [12:44] rotorr: "known" meaning "existing in apt's keyring" [12:44] durt nice to see ubuntu is everything in the box OS, anyhow thanks [12:44] to verify things [12:45] no probs janisozaur :) [12:45] grawity: so what mechanism makes sure the right key is 'known' ? [12:45] Had someone with Karmic tried to add wine repository? [12:46] or should i check on that manually? [12:46] rotorr: Probably none. Apt just checks against all 'known' keys, if any one matches, the verification passes. [12:47] rotorr: I think 'apt-key' is for accessing its GPG keyring, if you want to see all known keys. [12:47] rotorr, 'sudo apt-key adv --keyserver --recv-keys 12345678' [12:47] how can I make the terminal's prompt start at /home/username ?

(I had to edit it) [13:23] 呵呵 [13:23] om26er: i would choose ubuntu [13:23] ok [13:23] Justin2, I give up. [13:23] hi all. does anyone know how i can delete cookies etc??

If admin privileges are required to access NTFS partitions, then yes, you must submit password. You can more than likely just change the fstab entry if you want to change this behaviour (change owner to user). [13:24] ok 3Q [13:25] hi Craig, [13:25] Greetings All. Am trying to install ubuntu but I see "unusable" partition. One learned one here has suggested to use gparted but the X wont start when I boot using that live CD. All I see is error msgs. Can someone please tell me a windows programme or anything which will make that "unusable" 40 gb space usable and install Ubuntu? Thanks [13:25] I'm having no luck either... thanks anyway!! [13:25] john-saint, You can either do it through firefox itself, of you can hose the whole /home/you/.mozilla directory. Next time you start firefox, it will be recreated. You might want to backup the directory first... [13:25] Hi folks :) [13:25] anyone using an ATI x1650 on ubuntu 9.10 with 4 monitors?

[13:26] Ruge, get the virtualbox package from their site [13:26] Ruge: Are you using the ose open source edition? You won't. [13:26] One other problem I'm having is that my desktop icons have dissapeared, any thoughts? [13:26] alazyworkaholic1: im not using the open source one. [13:27] Justin2, the answer is in there, just have to wade through so much stuff. I'm less and less impressed with google every time I hunt for something specific like this. Useless... [13:27] who know Ubuntu use NOTES [13:27] alazyworkaholic1: im using VirtualBox 3.0 [13:27] zsvc, what kind of notes [13:27] Justin2, are you using xfce? I've only ever noticed the phenomenon on that desktop [13:27] craigbass1976: do you know much about this ubuntu? im fairly new to this and i got most things working except my webcam. looked everywhere but no joy! [13:28] Ruge: Me too. I'm a noob at it, but it works just by clicking on Devices at the top of the vbox window then usb -> click on the usb you want to have the guest see. [13:28] I'm using gnome, I've not really looked into this yet so it could possibly be a common problem. [13:28] tgpraveen1: pastebinit /etc/fstab and let us have a look. [13:28] it is IBM [13:28] alazyworkaholic1: hmm they are all greyed out..., maybe ill check on forums about it [13:28] john-saint: type gstreamer-properties in terminal and see what you get [13:28] zsvc, lotus notes? [13:28] john-saint, lspci and see if you can find the webcam in the output (you have to do this command in a terminal) Then google for ubuntu, your-version, and whatever webcam chipset you have. I think the program you want is called cheese === RussellAlan is now known as eGin|imA-Guy [13:29] anyone know how to get 4 monitors working on an ati x1650 with ubuntu 9.10?

Anyway, if you file a bug in launchpad, and over the period of a month or so it's status has been changed to "Fix Released" - however, using the current versions the exact same bug is exactly as it was, after reporting back to launchpad that it is still broken, is it inappropriate to change the bug status back to "incomplete" or "triaged" som [16:28] ething like that? Or is that for the developers only? [16:28] try right clicking on the volume control and choose preferences, make sure that Alsa hd is used [16:28] well, i'll see what i can find out. peace.

[17:44] I think you can create the usb stick with the Desktop LiveCD === drawde is now known as drawde` [17:44] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is the same as running update manager right? [17:45] seras: is that the name of the package? its just that my upgrade on netbook remix has caused it to disappear [17:45] i want to update packages not upgrade to new version [17:45] c3l: Grub 2 is the default for 9.10 installs, but you made it sound like it asked you if you wanted to use an older version instead [17:45] c3l: default for clean 9.10 installs [17:45] when trying to convert a file with ffmpeg to m4r i get Unknown encoder 'libfaac' I have installed libfaac0, still outputs the unknown encoder [17:45] drawde`, technically no, but for package updates you'll be ok. [17:45] Empathy is what comes standard w/ Karmic. Pidgin is what I am using atm and like it. Play with both and pick the one you like. :) [17:45] drawde`, yes but it looks like that command will also upgrade your distribution, if that is what youre looking to do [17:45] sebsebseb, well i ran apt-get upgrade and grup update appeared, i got confused [17:45] mezquitale: I like pidgin better than empathy personally. More support, but does not integrate with the little envelope in Gnome. I use XFCE so this is a non issue for me. [17:46] wouldnt it be possible for a user to install a .deb within his home directory and have his own package management without interfering with the real /var/cache/apt stuff ?

[17:46] s [17:46] well I installed ubuntu 9.10 [17:46] since it is permitted to compile and run stuff, why not install .debs [17:46] darkham, did you have fglrx installed previously or something? [17:46] and i wanna stick with 9.04 not upgrade to 9.10 [17:46] hi is there a repair function in ubuntu livecd? or whats the command to install nvidia driver or even the generic driver for gpu via terminal?

[17:47] so stick with 9.o4 [17:47] drawde`, sudo apt-get update should do it [17:47] c3l: the normal upgrades yes? [17:47] ya [17:47] mezquitale: Maybe Empathy is an ubuntu thing, but I can't get into it. [17:47] c3l: from the Ubuntu repos, you will only get security updates by default [17:47] mezquitale Empathy seems to be on a development track that the Ubuntu team like I guess. [17:47] c3l: install all the updates that it gives you [17:47] durt, he wants to just do the updates in verbose mode, is that the way it's done? "sudo apt-get update"? [17:47] hm okay, well i klicked the default alternative. keep current. but it still ran some configuration [17:48] so i think im fine :p [17:48] mezquitale, that will only update the packages database. === Reactor is now known as Reac_away === xD is now known as BlouBlou [17:48] Besides Empathy has support for a few features that pidgin has not implemented yet such as better theme support and webcam support.

This is because the game uses patented texture compression algorithm, which is left out of Mesa for legal reasons. To get GTA SA working, you have to get libtxc_dxtn.so library.

[19:46] can u tell me the inbuilt graphics card [19:46] sebsebseb: yea it is.. do you think ubuntu will support it in the future ? [19:46] Keen1: They might not be supported, they might require drivers, you could see if the alternate cd has drivers for your drives [19:46] I am trying to install to Disk 2 [19:46] radeon series [19:46] i mean converted [19:46] Keen1: Do a sudo fdisk -l in terminal [19:46] @tonyd u can check it by lspci [19:46] conb123, it sees the drives [19:46] Keen1: Tell me what it says [19:46] as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb [19:46] I'm installing ubuntu server 9.10 via usb flash drive, and it hangs on configuring console-setup, what should I do?? [19:47] pll4277445: propritary formats need reverse engingering and that is usaulley a pretty diffuclt proggraming task to get proper support [19:47] heh, this works pretty good: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager [19:47] Keen1: Ok so go to Computer and make sure you can access all the drives and that they are all mounted [19:47] sebsebseb: ok.. :/ well thanks anyway :) nice day [19:47] pll4277445: try and use formats such as AVI or OGG instead maybe even WMV, all of these you can get working on Ubuntu [19:47] Is it safe to delete empty files named %gconf.xml? Kleansweep sayd there a whole lot of them. [19:47] hey chedduh were are u from? [19:47] apparle, the kernel.log is pretty long, but if you want I can paste it for you on a separate tab [19:48] what is the different between create directory mask under smb.conf and the rwxrwxrwx in ls -l [19:48] What do I need to convert mp3 to m4r with ffmpeg? [19:48] guys crt dual monitors here and they continually go to sleep any suggestions? [19:48] sebsebseb: the problem is that windows 7 automatically record in wtv format, cannot use the other ones.. [19:48] pll4277445: in fact OGG just works since it's an open format so support is built in [19:48] but maybe i can convert them.. will try so [19:48] @tonyd please tell me the integrated graphics card in ur laptops [19:48] for some reason when i go to bed and leave my computer running, when i wake up the computer is not working. the monitor is 'asleep' and the computer is non-responsive. any ideas what could be causing that? [19:48] pll4277445: What kind of things are you recording exactly? [19:48] ok.. maybe i can trick win7 to save in that format [19:48] tv shows from tv [19:48] ScummVM is soon going 1.0. yuppy!!! [19:49] join the wait in the official channel [19:49] what are your suggestions for a lightweight calender...maybe tells me the weather...nothing bloated, i bet orage makes the best sense [19:49] Interesting. [19:49] theTroy:look in the main menu it should be there under administration create usb start up disk or something like that [19:49] pll4277445: no as far as I know Windows 7 does not have any support at all built in for OGG, since Microsoft do not like open formats usaulley [19:49] Can someone guide me through installing GRUB in MBR from a Ubuntu 9.04 live cd, manually [19:49] NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now. [19:49] ctmjr: I need the WINDOWS version please, not linux one [19:49] sebsebseb: another question, can ubuntu mythtv do the same thing ?? because then i should switch to that [19:49] Is it safe to delete like 50 files named %gconf.xml? === DaZ_ is now known as DaZ [19:49] rufensis, i've never done this myself, and i run squeze here instead of lenny. hang on lemme see what we can do [19:50] Anyway: I like the way Ubuntu offered to import my documents and settings from windows [19:50] vistro: do not think so [19:50] i got a problem with cvs when i'm trying to connect with my user: cvs [login aborted]: connect to localhost(127.0.0.1):2401 failed: Connection refused [19:50] pll4277445: I don't use MythTV, but most multimedia tasks can be done in Ubuntu and many other Linux distros [19:50] pll4277445: I mean watching things or listening to [19:50] i tried...a lot of ways but it does not work [19:50] theTroy: ask in #windows [19:50] Anybody using Conduit for folder sync? [19:50] conb123: did you get that? [19:50] sebsebseb: ok :) thanks. well try investigate what mythtv ubuntu is. :) nice day mate [19:51] ctmjr: the usb-creator is an UBUNTU production, not windows one [19:51] How about empty files named __init__.py? [19:51] I'm trying to change brightness with command line since fn keys or brightness panel doesn't work echo -n 80 /proc/acpi/video/OVGA/DD02/brightness but after I write this brightness doesn't change :S Why is that? [19:51] usser: i was thinking of updating to squeeze anyway. that's what i was using on the old laptop that broke, but i just installed the stable version from the website yesterday. [19:51] rufensis, well it looks like you can just add sid repo, change your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/experimental line to this deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian sid main [19:51] UH-OH [19:51] vistro: those are generally important to any python code you're running [19:51] What do I need to convert mp3 to m4r with ffmpeg? [19:51] lucka> You need an > after the 80 [19:51] but they are empty [19:51] rufensis, squeze is still flaky [19:51] sebsebseb: Mythtv is open source anyway they do a linux version [19:51] usser: it was not perfect for me before. [19:51] while trying to run: ssh, the following error occurs: error while loading library libgssapi_krb5.so2 [19:51] Ok if devkit-disks-daemon crashed during a HD modification, does that mean the HD is corrupted now [19:52] rufensis, gnome is incomplete here, they are still transitioning [19:52] are there images for USB drives? or i have to use tools to create images for usb flash drives [19:52] conb123: the disk 1 with Windows 7 RC on it mounts just fine [19:52] vistro: but they tell python that the directory they are in is actually a module [19:52] Mwa: Doubt it [19:52] conb123: yes I think I knew that, that person is also gone now [19:52] ah [19:52] I've been trying to reinstall grub after Windows 7 overwrote it using the Ubuntu live CD. I've been trying to do this for a little over a week now and nothing will work. [19:52] conb123: the other disk has nothing on it, and i dont think it will mount [19:52] conb123: yes it's open source alternative to something [19:52] If I update Firefox using a tar.bz2 in 9.10, will that mess up Ubunut? [19:52] rufensis, you can install just iceweasel from sid, it doesnt look like it pulls too many dependencies [19:52] gluonman: hmm [19:52] penguin42: kay. Good. What is it? [19:52] trsim:i followed this article:http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9369. and converted to kde-desktop [19:52] And if I uninstall a program, is it safe to delete empty folders related to it? [19:52] gluonman: oh dear, with the old Grub it was a bit tricky unless know what to do, as for the new one I am not sure [19:52] Keen1: Oh right it should mount ok, what type is it? === YDdraigGoch is now known as WelshDragon [19:52] usser: did you mean to say "sources.list.d"? I had not entered that file before [19:53] gluonman: You did do 9.10? so Windows 7 overwrote Grub 2? [19:53] both drives are 74GB WD Raptors [19:53] theTroy: yes it and windows .exe programs are not supported here [19:53] ctmjr: quote from the ubuntu wiki : "usb-creator.exe is located in the CD image already for you! " I cannot find the file, I kindly ask someone to upload it :) [19:53] SATA [19:53] Mwa: good question, it could just be a bug in devkit-disks - tell me about the disk and the modification? [19:53] rufensis, yea /etc/apt/sources.list.d/experimental.list [19:53] how to install that "libgssapi_krb5.so2"? there is something on https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krb5, but how to install that? [19:53] aquachica: if you have a .tar you can probably just extract and run from the folder; no need to install [19:53] sebsebseb:i follwed this article (http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9369) to convert the ubuntu default desktop to kde-desktop [19:53] sebsebseb, that's correct. [19:54] ctmjr: it is UBUNTU software, its made by ubuntu team, it is written about in ubuntu wiki, please, do not post misleading information. [19:54] VCoolio: Would that overwright the old version? Or would there be two versions of Firefox on my system? [19:54] penguin42: I tried like you said with sudo infront but brightness doesn't change ;s [19:54] penguin42: I'm installing Ubuntu-Netbook-Remix. The partitioner was staying at 0% for ages. I went downstairs to get a power cable and when I came back it was at the next stage. I then noticed the alert a few clicks later [19:54] maite: you there [19:54] !grub2 | gluonman [19:54] gluonman: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [19:54] How well does iTunes work on ubuntu over wine? [19:54] rufensis, you should have created this file when you were following the guide [19:54] craig131, doesnt work at all [19:54] conb123: even if i format disk 2 to something like NTFS, the installer still doesnt see it [19:54] !appdb > craig131 [19:54] craig131, please see my private message [19:54] penguin42: it was shrinking a windows xp partition from 180 to 20gb and creating and ext3 in it's place [19:54] craig131 try it and let us know! [19:54] conb123: the installer doesnt show either drive, or any partitions at all [19:55] lucka: The sudo won't help, you can't use the > on a line with a sudo (simplification) because the > happens before the sudo [19:55] I got it thanks ubottu [19:55] Keen1: Hmm weird, is this thee first time you have encountered the problem? [19:55] can sombody help me pls? [19:55] helllo [19:55] rainbow007: I don't want to go on that link right now, but all you need to do to get KDE is this sudo apt-get or apttitude install kubuntu-desktop [19:55] pros [19:55] sebsebseb, that's not very helpful after almost 9 days of beating my head against the wall trying to solve this. Everyone at ubuntuforums has managed to read my questions, but no one responds. I don't know how many times I've repeated this questions in here. What's the deal with not being able to install grub2 while everyone else is telling me it's so easy? [19:55] aquachica: if you just extract and run from there you have two versions; no problems except they probably use the same user settings; so they'll have trouble with add-ons; either make a choice between the two versions or use a different profile for one of them [19:55] penguin42: the web page the error reporter threw up says "don't worry it won't affect anything. You can go back to what you were doing2 [19:55] Mwa: Sounds like you've just hit a devkit-disks bug; I'd fsck the ext3 partition and check the windows partition from windows [19:55] (obviously not in those words) [19:55] conb123: last time i installed ubuntu i didnt have this exact problem [19:55] Hey does anyone else have issues with the mouse not clicking in apps since koala upgrade?? [19:55] how do i use my web cam [19:56] so i assume mplayer in ubuntu comes with some sort of gpu acceleration? [19:56] dibs: Generally or just in flash? [19:56] usser: so instead of "experimental main" I'm doing "sid main"? [19:56] sebsebseb, do you know how to do it? [19:56] rufensis, yes [19:56] I'm here apparle [19:56] gluonman: normalley people put Windows on first, and then do a Linux distro, because yes Windows goes over the MBR removing that tiny bit of Grub left on it [19:56] is the flashplugin that comes with ubuntu 64-bit the same as on the adobe website? [19:56] seems like i didn't need to compile vdpau mplayer [19:56] penguin42: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/devicekit-disks/+bug/452208 [19:56] sebsebseb: i have done exactly what you have mentione [19:56] conb123: when i had more drives hooked up, it always wanted to install to the largest hard drive [19:56] VCoolio: Is there a specific place I need to extract to? [19:56] In aptana might be the only place I have noticed [19:56] conb123: but that isnt the problem this time [19:56] so maybe java apps? [19:56] Keen1: Erm well you could try restarting, other than that i really don't know [19:56] rainbow007: ok so you got KDM then? nice blue log in screen yes? [19:57] penguin42: I typed sudo su [19:57] aquachica: no, just extract to what you consider convenient [19:57] usser: when I use apt-get now, do i need to specify sid rather than experimental? [19:57] Mwa: Looks pretty harmless then [19:57] good good. [19:57] penguin42: then echo -n 60 > /proc/acpi/video/OVGA/DD02/brightness [19:57] sebsebseb, I know. My boss required Ubuntu installed first. He's starting to ask me what's going on with the laptop. I'm keep telling him I'm having dual-boot issues. Before anyone yells at me for not knowing how to do this before getting hired, I'm a student worker. The job's about a part of my education. Unfortunately, I just can't figure this out.

[19:57] conb123: I have multiple times ... even unhooked the Windows 7 RC disk [19:57] penguin42: brightness still won't change [19:57] VCoolio: Okay. Thank you. ^_^ [19:57] with only 1 hard drive in the system, it still fails to install [19:57] rufensis, you would do apt-get update && apt-get install -t sid iceweasel [19:57] usser: i mean in the line "apt-get install iceweasel" [19:57] rainbow007: re installing the old Grub onto the MBR, is a bit of a pain, I am not sure how to do that, I assume though that re installing Grub 2 will be similar, by the way they have a channel #grub [19:57] Dual boot snow leopard and ubuntu 9.10. What file system do I use for the shared partition? [19:57] lucka: don't do that - if you *really* need a root shell type sudo -s [19:57] lucka: Ah OK, then I don't know - I don't know the brightness foo, but certainly you'll need the > with the echo [19:57] rufensis, or just apt-get install iceweasel should work too [19:58] kraitos: i guess it doesnt work for your laptop, try googling for your laptop ubuntu and fingerprint [19:58] penguin42: I put it there [19:58] penguin42: nothing happenes [19:58] rainbow007: If you want to reinstall to the mbr, jsut follow this guide http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html [19:58] usser: do i need to uninstall iceweasel 3.0.4 first? [19:58] guntbert: sudo -s command not found [19:58] rufensis, yes [19:58] Does anyone have the same problem with downloading the Signing key here : https://launchpad.net/~deluge-team/+archive/ppa [19:58] is there perhaps a partitioner other than gparted that will set up a root file system and all for me?

[19:59] theTroy: and i told you where to find it my statement was not misleading [19:59] DjAngo23: What problem? [19:59] it doesnt even show up [19:59] I can't find a way to fix my key [19:59] rufensis, well actually its not required but its better if you do, and also do apt-get autoremove as well [19:59] lucka: are you on ubuntu? [19:59] Keen1: you could try qtparted [19:59] apparle are you there? [19:59] !info qtparted [19:59] Package qtparted does not exist in karmic [19:59] hmm [19:59] grawity, How do i make de key working ? [19:59] sebsebseb:no at the time of installation i have left the option to gdm from the drop down list, expecting to choose at the time of login which would allow me to choose the option 'kde'. but the log screen doesn't show 'options' at all [19:59] gluonman: check out http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html might be what you need [19:59] hello [19:59] DjAngo23: You didn't tell what problem you have. [19:59] usser: what does "autoremove" do? [19:59] rainbow007: well GDM 2 is a bit sucky really I guess [19:59] trism, thanks. Let me check that out. [19:59] grawity, looks like the key isn't working, or the server is down.. [19:59] penguin42: well if I do cat /proc/acpi/video/OVGA/DD02/brightness I get: current: 60 but the brightness still havent change :S [20:00] rainbow007: and not just, becasue it can't be themed like the old one [20:00] DjAngo23: Anyway, sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys the-keyid-you-need [20:00] rufensis: it removes unneeded packages [20:00] rainbow007: I suggest joining #grub and asking there [20:00] rufensis, removes all packages that iceweasel depended on, since iceweasel 3.0.14 is gone those packages are not needed [20:00] ihave a dell studio 1555 with win7 and linux dual boot [20:00] lucka: try echoing 100 ?

[20:01] lucka: OK, you'll need to find someone who knows more of the brightness specific stuff [20:01] ihave a dell studio 1555 with win7 and karmic dual boot and whenever i use win7, it kills grub and i hav to reinstall grub.

[20:44] foo: it would probably be DISPLAY=:0.0, but they moved the .Xauthority in karmic so you'll probably won't have permission unless set the XAUTHORITY environment variable too, or copy it back to .Xauthority [20:45] can someone please tell me how to get a patch for sreadahead that ubuntu-boot ppa has for that 2.6.31 kernel [20:45] Hi all [20:45] apparle: because they are obsolete [20:45] guntbert: it's fine, but thank you for your feedback anyway :) [20:45] I need it for my custom kernel [20:45] <[nrx]> Can anyone suggest why the NVidia driver isn't appearing in the "Hardware Drivers" list even though it appears to be installed? [20:45] when my cpu throttles itself due to heat, how can i get it back to full speed without rebooting? [20:45] GnarlyBob: windows [20:45] apparle: if you really need them, I think you can download & install from the last Ubuntu version to have them [20:45] [nrx]: how can you say it appears to be installed [20:45] Milos_SD: didn't I tell you already? What exactly are you not sure about? [20:45] guntbert: windows [20:45] [nrx]: where did you install it from [20:45] <[nrx]> apparle, it's marked as being installed in Ubuntu Software Centre [20:46] I've found a lot of webpages that work perfectly fine on my fiancee's windows version of FireFox but can not load on my Linux version of firefox. I get a lot of errors, like advertisements that float overtop of all the text or videos that scroll and blur across the screen instead of staying in one place. Any idea how to fix it? [20:46] hggdh: but many sources require the old version to be compiled [20:46] jrib, I didn't see what you sad... can you repeat please [20:46] !kernel > Milos_SD [20:46] Milos_SD, please see my private message [20:46] arand, I managed to get it to work after simply turning on the repos and updating and installing grub-pc to replace grub-legacy. However, now that I'm booting up, grub loaded and gave me a command line. How can I make it show me the boot list? Or boot Ubuntu? [20:46] penguin42 / jrib / guntbert / trism: Hm, I wonder... when does $DISPLAY get set? I'm not logged in right now, so I'm thinking that's why I can't do something like DISPLAY=:0.0 synergyc myip [20:46] Milos_SD: I think this was hours ago [20:46] NuuBuntu: which webpages [20:46] apparle: not really, no [20:46] foo: after you startx [20:46] todkon: That's not a think to do, though "sudo bash" then you're root => be carefull... [20:46] Billiard, http://www.mmapools.com/fighterinfo.php?id=260 [20:46] How would I open a window from the shell? I know I need to do something with xorg, but I can't find any information and when I just type xorg, I get a message telling me something about the xorg server already running. [20:47] gluonman, update-grub [20:47] that was you :) didn't know that... but that doesn't help me man... I know how to patch and compile kernel, but I need the patch (link to it) :D [20:47] I need help. I used envyng to install ATI drivers on ubuntu 9.10. I got asked to reboot after the procedure witch I did. Now when the computer boots up I get to a flickering TTY and it hardly responds to any keys. What should I do?!? Please help [20:47] im trying to connect a printer to my computer through the network, and i need to enter a password to access the printer, but when i enter name, domain name, and password of the administrator of the parent computer (it runs windows) it tells me that there is still an authentication error [20:47] todkon: *thing [20:47] gluonman: Anything stopping you from not using a /boot partition? [20:47] apparle: at least the packages I build seem to be happy with gcc 4.4 [20:47] foo: yeah that won't get set until after you have a logged in session, but again, with the changes to karmic, you'll have a bit more work to do if you're trying to launch those on another display from a remote machine [20:47] are there any programs which will show a graphical representation of the network; network virtualisation? [20:47] which package provides vmlinuz-####### file? [20:47] BluesKaj, I used that. "sh:grub> update grub" returns "error: unknown command 'update-grub' [20:48] Hi all, Is there a reason that the buttons in pandora won't work with firefox 3.5.4 and Shockwave Flash 10.0 r32? [20:48] arand, I am using a separate /boot partition [20:48] foo: although this may only be if you use the new gdm [20:48] Hald: Hold shift at boot, and when you see the grub menu choose "recovery mode". From there you can get a root shell and remove the drivers with envyng [20:48] NuuBuntu: i have no idea, looks like a normal webpage [20:48] gluonman, sudo update-grub [20:48] gluonman: This might work for the separate /boot case: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/312746/ [20:48] fbdystang: There's a bug where button clicks don't seem to work with desktop effects [20:48] trism: yeah, I'm not on the new gdm (on xdm atm). hm, any way to login via xdm or force login over ssh that you know of? I have root, hm [20:48] Question: how do I tell if my PC Express slot is enabled? [20:48] Jordan_U: OK. I will try that. thanks dude [20:49] Hald: "envyng -t" to use the text version of envyng [20:49] Hald: np [20:49] Billiard, when i try to load it, one of two things happens, usually both. First, the google video on the page blurs and scrolls across the whole page so I can't see anything. Then it starts freezing and closes firefox automatically on it's own. Any ideas? [20:49] Jseagle, lspci ? [20:49] I installed karmic but it did not install vmlinuz [20:49] anyone know how i'd go about disabling screensaver/power management in fluxbox on ubuntooth? [20:49] BluesKaj, I'm not in the liveCD. I booted into grub. [20:49] lspci? i will try thank you [20:49] penguin42: Is there more info on that somewhere? Is is a bug with ubuntu, or firefox, or adobe flash? [20:49] foo: my advice - get a free X-Server for windows (either cygwin/X or mobaXTerm), then connect using putty (choose forward X in the settings) [20:49] gluonman: and that last commad there needs sudo as well... [20:49] fcn: Is there anything in your /boot directory? [20:49] GnarlyBob: thanks, but I think I'll just hook up a keyboard. :) Was just seeing my options [20:49] NuuBuntu: sounds like a plug-in issue to me... [20:50] gluonman, oh sorry [20:50] fbdystang: I don't think anyone is quite sure where the bug lies, it's been around for a long time and I've seen it in launchpad [20:50] arand, I just ran the other set of instructions you gave me after updating grub and it seemed to work. But now that I boot up, it just gives me a prompt "sh:grub>" [20:50] * duffydack likes cygwin and xorg libs. [20:50] greezmunkey, which plugin and how would i fix it? [20:50] NuuBuntu: yeah maybe flash prob [20:50] hello [20:50] Jordan_U: vmcoreinfo-2.6.31-14-generic and some other files [20:50] yea... i typed lspci and i have no idea what that all meant...

[21:19] Billiard, yes [21:19] arand, it worked. Grub is fine. Thank you so much for all your help. [21:19] I'm using a terminal application that needs the f1 key, but when I press f1, the gnome terminal help opens. How do I send f1 to the terminal app? [21:19] gluonman: huh? Which of the things did work? [21:20] xapel, what do you mean [21:20] Travis-42: I just disable the f1 binding in gnome terminal keyboard shortcuts [21:20] Hello. I have a major issue after the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10. Ubuntu doesn't start with the 2.6.31.x kernel, just with the older one. Does anybody know if it would help if I'd deinstall the new kernel and reinstall it? [21:20] hi when i run the command "service network restart" the answer is network unrecognized service [21:20] migg137: do you know about the paper-cut project? [21:20] can you help me? [21:20] http://pastebin.com/f6608667d [21:20] Problem: installer for 9.10 does not see my 2 separate hard drives, instead it sees them as one drive (A raid that i had setup a couple of yrs ago, but i reverted back to two regular drives) any ideas what to do here? [21:20] Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/f6608667d [21:20] pochi: did you try it? [21:21] neshaug: it worked, how about you? [21:21] Mrokii: in the grub menu choose the kernel you want [21:21] guntbert: I did that but I want Ubuntu to run with the latest kernel if possible [21:21] arand, it was the second pastebin you sent me. I found out that what I needed to do was enable the repos in the livecd and update, the upgrade grup-pc. After doing that, mounting / and /boot to /media/tmp and /media/tmp/boot respectively and using grub-install worked perfectly. [21:21] hi when i run the command "service network restart" the answer is network unrecognized service [21:21] can you help me? [21:21] pochi: nope :\ [21:21] xapel, no please enlighten em [21:21] neshaug: lshw still says disabled? [21:22] so I know Linux can read/write to NTFS and windows partitions just fine.. but does the other way work too? Can windows read/write from an ext4 (or ext3) partition without problems? Or will it write fine but will lump everything to the first free spaces like it's an NTFS? Or does it write to it just like linux does? [21:22] AntiStrange: Windows doesn't support extN natively. [21:22] In my ubuntu 9.04, the internet cant work [21:23] needing help to setup up folding@home as service on linux with multi-core CPU: not SMP, rather separate work folders for ea core running its own client; anyone have good results with finstall?

[21:23] arand, now I just need to figure out how to get grub to give me the option of Ubuntu or Windows. It just boots Ubuntu automatically. [21:23] xapel, thanks... but can i fix this [21:23] Mrokii: normally grub remebers the last choice [21:23] AntiStrange: And ext2fsd - less stable, but works more often... no ext4 in either. [21:23] Jordan_U: http://www.pastebin.com/da17be89 [21:23] pochi: yeah, still disabled.. [21:23] grawity: ok thanks, I'll just stay away from writing to my linux partition in windows then. [21:23] gluonman, do you not get at least a prompt telling you to press esc for a menu? [21:23] greezmunkey its work [21:23] hehe [21:23] neshaug: hm, what about ifconfig, see the wireless device there? [21:23] AntiStrange: Good idea. [21:23] but my wlan0 was ignored [21:23] gluonman, do you just want to set the default system to boot? [21:23] pochi: nope [21:23] "ignoring unknown interface wlan0=wlan0" [21:23] * greezmunkey high fives Andisu_ [21:23] oliver3, that's what I expected. But I didn't receive the prompt. Maybe grub2 stopped doing that? [21:23] the message [21:23] kevinl: tell that to Jordan_U [21:24] guntbert: I don't think it did that here. And, as I said, I would like to use the latest Kernel and find it highly annoying that the upgrade failed in that regard. [21:24] p1oooop: That's empty [21:24] it is? hold on [21:24] folding-install, I want to have Ubuntu be the default, but also display the option of Windows. [21:24] I had to memorize it [21:24] !grub2 | gluonman [21:24] gluonman: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic.

[21:24] Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/m33b7e44c [21:24] gluonman, not a clue. Just have a look at your menu.lst, see what it says. I'm not that familiar with grub2, so that's the best I can do unfortunately. [21:24] greezmunkey you know how to i can fix the command service network? [21:24] lol this channel is a cluster. [21:24] oliver3, alright. [21:24] Hi. I'm planning to dual boot snow leopard and ubuntu 9.10. What file system do I use for the shared partition? [21:24] how do i use pastebin? [21:24] AntiStrange: never been able to get WinXP to recognize Linux ext3/4 [21:25] Jordan_U, did the pastebin work [21:25] i cannot update my drivers because the internet not work [21:25] Andisu_, I don't use that one...sorry. [21:25] using wlan [21:25] chloe_: Yes [21:25] gluonman: Ah, ok, that makes sense... There should be several guides on how to boot windows 7 from grub2 out there, I think. (You must be getting tired of the grub2 factoids :D ) [21:25] gluonman, so your grub menu doesn't include windows? [21:25] Jseagle, use pastie[dot]org [21:25] Mrokii: then I misunderstood - you can always select system/administration/update manager to get the "latest" versions [21:25] ok thank you ard1an [21:25] Jordan_U, k [21:25] !latest | Mrokii but [21:25] Mrokii but: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest.

[21:31] ArmyMan007: package manager [21:31] folding-install, it didn't really say anything. It went from saying "Loading grub" to seeing the Ubuntu logo. [21:32] gluonman: if simply running "sudo update-grub2" from your current ubuntu install, does that mention windows? [21:32] ArmyMan007: sudo apt-get remove ume-launcher [21:32] vistro: The VEASA drivers don't change much. Why do you want the "latest" ? [21:32] xapel, i found out i can press f2 to make it work wich is jus about as convinient [21:32] thanks [21:32] ArmyMan007: type that in teh terminal [21:32] Andisu_, Are you set up for DHCP? or static?

[21:38] Jordan_U: thank you very much! it works now! =) and thank you drs305 from #grub! [21:39] folding-install: gluonman: afaik palimpsest is irrelevant in this case. [21:39] greezmunkey [21:39] greezmunkey Destination Host unreachable [21:39] fcn: np :) [21:39] folding-install, did anything look wrong with what's in my fdisk -l?

[21:39] * linxeh wonders if 9.10 finally supports his hardware now [21:40] folding-install, all I left out was the prompt. [21:40] * greezmunkey is happy for Andisu_ [21:40] how can I find my audio chipset? [21:40] greezmunkey responding 3 times and down [21:40] is it safe for me to upgrade ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10? [21:41] i did it [21:41] gluonman: right, the output is fine, as far as it goes; it's only saying that the file systems are there, not whether it can be treated as bootable [21:41] it worked [21:41] Andisu_: haha. === phyrrus_ is now known as phyrrus [21:41] Help for Wifi needed [21:41] so, the upgrade to 9.10 reversed the TapButton2 and 3 settings of my synaptics touchpad, I can fix this using synclient, but the settings only hold for that session. anyway to get the setting to stay permanent? [21:41] Andisu_, in a terminal "tail -f /var/log/syslog...this will tell you what's going on (to a point) [21:41] pochi: I don't know what that is [21:41] how do i upgrade via shell? [21:41] #linuxmint-chat [21:41] Hrm... is there any way to install 9.10 without burning a CD? [21:41] WACOMalt: try lspci [21:42] neshaug: it seems to be a utility where you can select between different drivers [21:42] Hello, if i change the location of my torrent in transmission will it restart the whole torrent? [21:42] toresbe, usb flash drive [21:42] Doorman352: thanks [21:42] Jordan_U: ok, now what? [21:42] gluonman: anyway i think i'd defer to arand's expertise [21:42] np [21:42] Andisu_, in another terminal sudo tcpdump for more info... [21:42] phyrrus, 'sudo do-release-upgrade' for distro upgrade. [21:42] folding-install, well, I don't think it matters at this point. I've booted into both Ubuntu and Windows and grub seems fine. Both OSs seem to be working without problems. [21:42] for some reason, 9.10 does not recognize my $10 mouse anymore [21:42] ryan__: How does that work? The wiki mentions that, but the instructions refer to files which don't exist (usb-creator.exe on the ISO?) [21:42] thanks [21:42] gluonman: i've been pounding on grub for only a couple weeks [21:42] is there a way to monitor my network activity ? [21:42] Is it still possible to do an upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04 ( as described on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades ) ? [21:42] sorry tcpdump -i [21:42] neshaug: try running jockey-gtk and see if it mentions the ath* drivers? [21:43] pochi: it is installed [21:43] gluonman: so the update-grub did't fix it? [21:43] greezmunkey no IPv4 address assigned [21:43] Doorman352: I dont see anything listed for audio, is the list getting cut off maybe? [21:43] greezmunkey here is the problem no? [21:43] I am on a Fujitsu Siemens laptop and can't get the wifi working [21:43] toresbe, you just need a program that can write the ISO to your flash drive and make it bootable. there are many tools out there that can do it easily [21:43] in syslog eth0:ayti-negotiating all the time [21:43] ryan__: is there no way to do it that doesn't involve formatting my MP3 player? :\ [21:43] scroll up should be near top [21:44] folding-install: Ah, I'm not sure on that, grub2 is all new and strange in my opinion too... [21:44] Andisu_, do the tcpdump, then use NetworkManager to reconnect, see if DHCP is working... [21:44] arand, it totally did. [21:44] JakobLaursen: do you have an Atheros wireless card perchance? [21:44] Now the installer won't even open! [21:44] pochi: hmm, it only found a modem .. :P [21:44] neshaug: ah, bummer :) [21:44] pochi: yeah :P [21:44] gluonman: everything works as it should then? [21:44] neshaug: does lsmod | grep ath list anything? [21:44] greezmunkey how i use networkmanager to reconnect? [21:45] arand, I have detected no problems so far. [21:45] pochi: I can activate it... [21:45] pochi: yeah, ath5k is listed tehre [21:45] Jordan_U: I've mounted it. What's next? [21:45] ryan__: the network install sounds like a lot less of a pain; but is that working? [21:45] Doorman352: 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) [21:45] toresbe, mp3 player? i recommend you get a flash drive. they are like 10 dollars haha [21:45] neshaug: strange, I didn't have any ath modules at all before I edited the blacklist [21:45] ryan__: Yeah, I've got one but I lent it away a few hours ago, sod's law [21:46] gluonman: so you've got your ubuntu default boot with windows option? [21:46] WACOMalt: that be it... [21:46] toresbe: I don't recommend an MP3 player to be used as the flash drive because.... it reading speed is very slow.... [21:46] folding-install, yes I do. [21:46] How can I fix "00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)" Which was working until my first restart after install? [21:46] pochi: I edited as well, and rebooted [21:46] Andisu_, choose "disconnect" in the NetworkManager applet, wait then choose "connect"! [21:46] very good [21:46] see this mac thing listed, and someone blacklisted that, I try that [21:46] apparle: I know, but I just need Ubuntu installed... I can't find any documentation on the network install option... [21:46] [(greezmunkey)]: ah ok [21:46] WACOMalt: have you tried the restricted library? [21:46] and this is all safe? I use fluxbox. no gnome [21:47] Doorman352: no, how can I do that? [21:47] gluonman: Great! [21:47] HelpMe932: Run "sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev && sudo mount -o bind /proc /chroot/proc && sudo mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys && sudo chroot /mnt" [21:47] Does i686 mean im using the 64bit version of Ubuntu? [21:47] greezmunkey the button disconnect is not avaliable [21:47] chrisr: nope, it means you're using the 32-bit version with Pentium extensions, basically. [21:47] arand, definitely!

When i just press enter a minimal installtion menu appear, but without any option for minimal installation. the cd works fine, i have already installed a standard desktop system with it and on better systems the installation menu is normal. [21:48] Andisu_, are you running tcpdump? [21:48] the problem is already known, but i cant find any solution (look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=790244 ) [21:48] How do I install the 64bit version of Ubuntu? I didnt get asked when i downloaded it. [21:48] JakobLaursen: I was just asking if you had an atheros based wifi card? [21:48] [greezmunkey]: no [21:48] is there any possibility to install a minimal system? [21:49] I'm not sure.. how do I find out? [21:49] !minimal | knutmithut [21:49] knutmithut: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [21:49] chrisr: it's under "alternative options" on the download page [21:49] Andisu_, do that first, as I mentioned earlier... [21:49] how stable is karmic? [21:49] [[greezmunkey]]: ok [21:49] toresbe: yeah ive just seen it [21:49] what a pain in the arse [21:49] :) [21:49] chrisr: not much gained from it, so...

[21:49] greezmunkey disconnect button is unavaliable [21:49] DuckGod: it was released october 29th. It only receives security updates and "big bug" fixes. So it's stable... [21:50] JakobLaursen: you can run lspci and check the output [21:50] DuckGod, depends on hardware, check the relese notes for known issues [21:50] Jordan_U, do you think i will have luck if i downgrade to 904? [21:50] HelpMe932: Be carefull to include all spaces [21:50] has anyone here installed ubuntu on an HP Pavilion AMD Phenom 9550 Quad-core? [21:50] Andisu_, try a single left click on the icon, maybe my bad there... [21:50] successfully [21:50] pochi: I'm newbee... Terminal "sudo lspci"? [21:50] would it mess up my satanic linux? [21:50] Anyone good on vnc matters?.. I connect with my ubuntu laptop to my pc at home.. I wonder If its possible to change the resolution for the laptop cuz i have 800x600 and my computer 1300x 1100 something [21:50] JakobLaursen: yeah [21:50] jrib: thanks, but downloading during the installation is a torture with a 10kb/s connection :-\ [21:51] HelpMe932: so "sudo mount -o bind /proc /chroot/proc" [21:51] DuckGod, again read the release notes. [21:51] Jordan_U: my bad, there was a page break there and I thought it was a continuum [21:51] Andisu_, I run wicd, not NetworkManager - too many issues... [21:51] greezmunkey no, but the wlan connection is here, if i click in this the lan reconnect [21:52] would anyone know why when i insert a pcmcia serial adapter i see detection notice in kernel log, but there is no /dev/ttyS0 device created? === BlouBlou is now known as xD [21:52] is there a way to keep the fourth mouse button from working.

[21:53] linxeh, yeah... the most annoying mouse ever [21:53] kassah: I'm thinking maybe with xmodmap - it has a pointermap [21:53] kassah: I really like mine :o [21:53] HelpMe932: Did you mount your root filesystem to /chroot? [21:53] kassah: you mean the side squeeze butons ? [21:53] linxeh, yeah!

[21:53] penguin42, will look at that =) [21:53] are pcmcia serial cards just plain not supported? i dont have any errors that would seem to indicate this [21:53] kassah: I have to really squeeze mine quite hard before they work (I've got 4 of them) [21:54] So why not install the 64bit version?

[22:04] aperson: ahh [22:04] <[MOB]Trip> mezy i upgraded to 9.1....suked balls..downgraded back to 9.04 [22:04] eribol: so, you started in a fresh partition for the netbook broken config yes? [22:04] mezy: thats just the date it is released [22:04] Oh geezze [22:05] aperson: ok... did you enable php [22:05] WACOMalt: anyway, I would remove the script and what it installed and just do it yourself. To do it yourself you download the tar.gz from adobe and copy libflashplayer.so to ~/.mozilla/plugins/ . I haven't checked in karmic, but at least before karmic the repository installs the 32bit version with nspluginwrapper. If you install to ~/.mozilla/plugins/ as above, then firefox should prefer that one and [22:05] p1oooop, I even installed phpmyadmin, though I can't seem to login to that [22:05] restricted-extras should not conflict [22:05] hi [22:05] ploooop : I use fedora mostly and I am not sure whether it is enabled by default [22:05] aperson: did you enable it? [22:05] p1oooop, all I did was install lamp (via synaptic's mark packages by task) [22:05] has anybody notice 9.10 slow on the internet? [22:05] p1oooop, aperson I found an awsome lamp instalation tutorial, Let me go find it. [22:05] dbpatankar: I think it is [22:05] knoppies, that'd be nice [22:05] jrib: I have done that before, flash is running fine. the reason I am installing restricted-extras is to see if it fixes my audio, as per Doorman352's suggestion [22:05] smokey: no [22:05] eribol: is the hardware any different between the 2? [22:05] Well, everyone would have different experiences with it. I give KK a try.

[22:06] its same machine [22:06] Flannel: wow, and to think I had to do it myself :P [22:06] hmmm i fixed the problem with OpenDNS but shouldnt have to do this [22:06] [ 622.974402] DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 0 (Afatech AF9013 DVB-T)... <---- same message on both mashines, one has /dev/dvb/adapter0& with frontend0 for example the other has not and lacks found dvb-t adapters [22:06] pleas ehelp [22:06] eribol: what build did you have before the update(not upgrade) [22:06] penguin42, so far I can remap the button... but havn't found a way to drop it outright [22:07] dbpatankar, the file is empty [22:07] mezy: "suked balls" is very individual usually, and a lot comes down to hardware. [22:07] pochi: It didn't work [22:07] aperson: i forgot but i think I had the same probem [22:07] jrib: ok then, I'll install it manually. Do you have any idea about my audio issue? Its on this chipset "00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)" [22:07] folding-install: nothing realy:) [22:07] aperson : you must open it with sudo [22:07] dalfa89: hmmm i fixed the problem with OpenDNS but shouldnt have to do this [22:07] JakobLaursen: bummer, might seem you have the same problem as neshaug then [22:07] WACOMalt: not really, check bugs.ubuntu.com [22:08] smokey, I know, but there should be a fix or something soon, with any luck (: [22:08] eribol: i'm confused, you say you had something working for wireless before [22:08] pochi [22:08] aperson : sudo vi /etc/php.ini [22:08] dbpatankar, I did a: sudo nano /etc/php.ini [22:08] JakobLaursen: yes?

[22:31] Hi... now that Totem has regressed to being a single engine player can anyone suggest an alternative? Needs to support DVB (Television), DVD with menus, skipping though video (Totem can't do this on many now), ideally gnome thumbnail compatible... [22:31] If your not certain use a live cd [22:31] http://i38.tinypic.com/11tx7qf.png why is this happening? [22:31] use to when i plugged my cam in it opened a window to dload the pics--now after 9.10 upgrade it does nothing [22:31] TW__: pretty much, starts at a goes up bcde [22:31] joel: thanks [22:31] what does the error "make: *** [libpng12.la] Error 1" mean? I am trying to install libpng 1.2.40 on Ubuntu 9.1 x64 [22:31] TW__-> via combinations of hal and udev [22:32] fcn - You mean why is it positioned lower down? The top part is reserved for certain notifications [22:32] Jabadahut: It means there was an error before that - that's just the summary [22:32] but in all fairness i cant blame the upgrade because i am using a diff cam so i dont kno what it is [22:32] hi .. I have a problem: my sound doesn't work in movies, but it works in music, what can I do ?! :-s [22:32] chazco, like what? [22:32] okay; what can I do to fix the error? I think if I go back, the errors started getting verbose right before the summary - I'll post what it says [22:32] hey guys can u point me in the direction where i can get some more info, i have a raid 5 array, one drive is playing up and i want to know more on this topic [22:33] Jack`s: what player? [22:33] Jerkman, vlc.. mplayer.. sound doesn't work in movies. [22:33] TW__: The Linux RAID/MD faq is fairly good as I remember [22:34] fcn - Off hand i know volume control appears in the correct place [22:34] Jack`s: in vlc, under audio you want to change it from AC3 audio to stereo [22:34] hello [22:34] !list [22:34] This is not a file sharing channel (or network). If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » [22:34] penguin42: http://pastebin.com/d77ac9fc [22:35] Jerkman, ok, i will try. [22:35] chazco, this should be some kind of bug, i think [22:35] fcn - Not sure... some talk about is... e.g. http://www.mail-archive.com/ayatana@lists.launchpad.net/msg00742.html [22:35] fcn - It's supposed to do that... whether it's a good idea or not is debatable [22:35] Jabadahut: So you've got some weirdo libz in /usr/local you've built ? [22:35] Hi... now that Totem has regressed to being a single engine player can anyone suggest an alternative? Needs to support DVB (Television), DVD with menus, skipping though video (Totem can't do this on many now), ideally gnome thumbnail compatible... [22:36] it might be that, but the only thing I've ever built prior to that was zlib which compiled just fine [22:36] Jabadahut: Ah well, that's the problem - it doesn't like the zlib you've built - it's picking it up from /usr/local/lib [22:36] Jabadahut: Why did you build zlib? [22:37] it's for an emulator that I'm trying to homebrew for [22:37] any way to remove the configuration file all the apache mod in ubuntu? [22:37] Jabadahut: Just install zlib1g-dev [22:37] DeSian: What are you trying to accomplish? [22:37] because apt-get remove --purge doesn't do that [22:37] Jabadahut: why are you building libpng? [22:37] it's for an emulator >.< [22:38] okay, i didn't know what to do, but i'm sure the team knows what they're doing... i have a suggestion though, and it's all for the sake of usability: Empathy's purpose is to take precious time out of my day because i end up having to use my mouse all the time. it's not as keyboard friendly as pidgin [22:38] Flannel, i want to remove all the apache and php config file and start again [22:38] Jabadahut: what emulator? [22:38] VBA, sorry I'm not verbose enough [22:38] lol [22:38] so is the team going to put pidgin back in as default next time? [22:38] Jabadahut: visual boy advance? [22:38] roralce82: do.PurgeEmpathy() && do.InstallPidgin() [22:38] DeSian: could try apt-get remove apache2 --purge [22:38] yes [22:39] DeSian: right. You need to remove (and purge) all the support packages too. On recent Ubuntu's, this is: apache2.2-common and apache2-mpm-worker for instance [22:39] !info visualboyadvance | Jabadahut [22:39] Jabadahut: visualboyadvance (source: visualboyadvance): full featured Game Boy Advance emulator. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.8.0-5 (karmic), package size 308 kB, installed size 1360 kB [22:39] Jabadahut: I think you've not built a shared library of zlib, but still, I'd clear it out of /usr/local/lib and just install zlib-dev before you build your libpng, but even then you should be able to install libpng-dev (or whatever it's called) [22:39] DeSian: oh, and apparently apache2.2-bin now as well [22:39] Billiard, as i said doesn't remove the enabled mode and config file like php.ini ..etc [22:39] thank you so much, penguin42 and jrib [22:39] Jabadahut: just install visualboyadvance from the repositories, you shouldn't have to compile anything [22:40] Jabadahut: you should clear out /usr/local/ as penguin42 suggested still [22:40] What's to prefer? RDP or VNC? [22:40] Flannel, i said this way doesn't remove config file and enabled apache mod [22:41] okay, I shall do that :) thanks again [22:41] How can I get amarok to play all m4a files? It will play some from iTunes store, but not all. [22:41] DeSian: You don't want to remove config files? How will you start over then? [22:41] I'm on karmic koala kubuntu [22:41] hi all. quick question. im currently running karmic as dual boot, with that nasty M$ software, but need to unfortunately use it until I get a particular programme working under WINE. What I'd like to know is two fold. firstly, how can i install hista in a VM without an actual install CD, just the recovery partition on my laptop, and secondly, can i then turn my dual boot install into a single boot install without having to reinstall ? [22:42] Flannel, because someone modifed and startet same apache mod, i want to remove all of them and install standard LAMP [22:42] DeSian: right. sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 apache2.2-common apache2-mpm-worker apache2.2-bin (and whatever libapache2-* files) [22:42] jugglerbry: for the first question, try ##windows [22:42] jugglerbry, migrating OS installs are very tricky with linux and almost impossible with windows [22:42] <_ULNX64_> DeSian: purge php as well, then apt-get autoremove --purge [22:43] i think all the hype about this 9.10 was just that. they did good on the boot thing, but the software center is not that impressive because it's the exact same thing it was before just rearranged into icons instead of a list for the categories...and yeah, the inclusion of empathy was a really bad idea i think [22:43] jugglerbry: With regard to the second question, you just need to remove the partition, reappropriate the space (optionally) and make sure the bootloader is all happy. [22:43] _ULNX64:wont let you what ? [22:43] jugglerbry: the second one, you can of course turn it into single boot by deleting the vista partition and reasign the free space to ubuntu [22:43] jugglerbry: but of course, make a backup first [22:43] <_ULNX64_> it does hardware check on boot [22:43] <_ULNX64_> wont let you [22:44] ok well, thats good on the second one, i'm just a little stuck on the first [22:44] jugglerbry : second Q : just remove the window partition and add that space to ubuntu [22:44] what is the best alternative for Fireworks on linux? [22:44] Anybody know a good channel for remote controlled cars???? [22:44] Anyone? === padd1 is now known as paddy_melon [22:44] <_ULNX64_> you should be able to install from the DVD i think ms allows for this [22:44] ##cars [22:44] paddy_melon: #freenode [22:44] with two # [22:44] thats just it. dont have any media, just the recovery partition on my laptop [22:44] Thanks guys [22:45] jugglerbry : second Q : gparted or qtparted can do that === clay_ is now known as ClayG [22:45] what command will tell me how much video ram my video card has? [22:45] Flannel, "E: Couldn't find package libapache2-*" [22:46] I just upgraded to 9.10, the wireless icon on the bottom right is missing, how do i reload it? [22:46] ClayG make sure you have network-config installed [22:46] <_ULNX64_> if you find please let me know... never seen anything even close [22:46] or network-manager i think [22:46] _ULNX64_: :( [22:46] is anyone here using gnome-gwibber ? I've configured my fb and twitter accounts on it, and I only can read, not write messages, because I see no "write message" option. Any hint ? [22:46] ClayG see if you can type the command 'nm-connection-editor' from a terminal [22:46] DeSian: right. do `dpkg -l | grep libapache2` and it'll tell you what packages you need to remove [22:46] hi all, does anyone know how to extract songs from a ipod touch using gtkpod or something else? [22:46] is there a way to run synaptic inside a user account that doesnt have the privlege but i do? [22:47] mom: you can run synaptic probably, but not install packages [22:47] infidel2s, I can but dont see an icon down there [22:47] Billiard, that would be fine but it doesnt run [22:47] mom: what is the error? [22:47] clayg what do you mean 'down there' the icon is up top on the gnome panel for me [22:48] Billiard, it asks for a password [22:48] infidel2s, that is what I meant. [22:48] is there a way to set up a column in nautilus so that it displays the freespace left on some mounted devices? [22:48] mom: try alt+f2 synaptic [22:48] ClayG do you have 'system > preferences > network connections' [22:48] Yes I do [22:48] clayg right click on the panel and chooes 'add to panel' then locate 'network connection' and add it [22:49] mom : start it from terminal after su [22:49] ugh. if 9.10 is automagically configuring Xorg, is there a way I can at least see what its "magical" configuration is? [22:49] dbpatankar, that doesnt work tried it [22:50] mom : whats the error? [22:50] infidel2s, network connection is not in the reg list [22:50] kevinl: You can see stuff in /var/log/Xorg.0.log but it will read from xorg.conf if you give it one [22:50] dbpatankar, Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0 === ubuntu_ is now known as Beetle [22:50] okay. trying to figure out how to get my resolution higher than 1024 with intel 915 chipset. [22:51] mom: ran it from gnome-terminal ? [22:51] clayg one reason i had the icon disappear was simply because wireless wasnt working, do you currenlty have wireless working? ie if you type 'lshw -C network' does it show it's enabled [22:51] Billiard, thats what i was trying [22:51] infidel2s, I'm on wireless now [22:51] infidel2s, lemme try to reboot and see if it helps [22:51] I setup my external hard drive that's ntfs configured to mount automatically with 755 permissions with the Storage Device Manager, but whenever I reboot, it seems to "lose" that configuration, and I am no longer able to even do an ls with a user other than root. [22:51] mom: what does just synaptic say [22:52] Additionally, my samba shares no longer seem to work. [22:52] I upgraded my hardy to karmic. Everything seems to have gon somoothly. But now my notebook (MSI EX310+) has no sound. Why can be that ? [22:52] icehawk78_: where did you set it up to mount with 775 [22:52] Billiard, your way worked for just viewing packages [22:52] mom: you said that would be ok [22:52] Billiard, alt+f2 [22:53] I used 54mb4 before. [22:53] Billiard: I set it to 755 under the Storage Device Manager utility. [22:53] icehawk78_: o sorry you said already ha [22:53] I couldnt figure it out though [22:53] Billiard, yes but then dbpatankar suggested there was a way to run it as su with the other user session open which would have been nicer :) [22:53] works, thx [22:53] icehawk78_: sorry ive never used storage device manager [22:54] haroelcabo, did you go to system → prefs → sound to setup your sound? [22:54] how to have different wallpaper for 2 different workspaces ??? [22:54] mom try gksu [22:54] Billiard, because i can still look through the sections quickly and just aptitude in a window [22:54] Flannel, worked fine thnx [22:54] Billiard: Ah, alright. If you know of a better way that using that to allow an ntfs drive to be readble by more than one user, I'm all ears, lol. [22:54] Billiard, more or less same error: Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0 [22:54] icehawk78_: you could add a line in your fstab [22:55] haroelcabo, run uname -a what kernel do you see? === clay_ is now known as ClayG [22:55] Billiard: I've not done anything with fstab before, so I'm not sure what exactly I'd need to add. [22:55] okay so before i upgraded to karmic, i could use 1280x1024 . I still have an old Xorg log file with the modeline, can I throw it in an xorg.conf and get my higher res back you think? [22:56] infidel2s, it showed up, i think it ws because I had just upgraded to the new version but the 2nd reboot fixed it. I see the icon now, looks like a cell phone reception icon [22:56] icehawk78_: do you want it to mount by UUID or what? [22:56] clayg cool === revygttam is now known as mattgyver [22:57] does anyone know a way to fix slow gmail issues in firefox? I dont want to use the HTML version.. [22:57] kevinl: should work [22:57] mattgyver: i have no issues [22:57] Billiard: Presumably just by whatever would be most stable. It's just an off the shelf USB hard drive, so just using whatever would work best. [22:57] Billiard, For me its really slow to load, its been like that since 9.04 [22:57] since 9.10 isnt using xorg.conf by default, is there some way to dump the config that it IS using currently into xorg.conf so I can modify it ? [22:58] icehawk78_: wanna pm me?

[23:33] n8tuser: i did not have wifi [23:34] simple question but i wanted to be sure...if i am running 64-bit 9.04 and I upgrade via synaptic package manager to 9.10, it will upgrade to 64-bit 9.10 or 32-bit 9.10? [23:34] My connection will also randomly disconnect, and then when I try to reconnect it fails. Looking at the logs, it looks like DHCP timeout. I'm not having the same problem with Windows 7, so it's not the network. [23:34] userone: 64 [23:34] userone: it will upgrade to 64 bit [23:34] hmm i think nVidia make the worst drivers nowdays >:( [23:34] mycomputer-> do same with Varth.. look into your logs to give you some hints perhaps [23:34] ok, thanks...i just wanted to be sure cos my 64-bit 9.04 works like a charm..thanks!

[23:34] userone, use update-manager to upgrade to 9.10 [23:35] userone: however, I don't recommend upgrading if you have a separate /home partition - it is fraught with problems, always. Consider reinstalling instead. At the very least, use the alternate CD, downloaded with a torrent. [23:35] Thats what I have in my lappy :( [23:35] n8tuser: i cant able to understand [23:35] toresbe: you mean ssh keys with ssh? yeah, that's obviously possible [23:35] Would downloading the 64 bit ver work?? [23:35] Mike_lifeguard: Great, how? [23:35] Ruge: *most* of that should be autodetected by the X server, IIRC. [23:35] mycomputer-> what language do you speak? may you can join the channel that supports your dialect [23:36] mycomputer-> what language do you speak? maybe* you can join the channel that supports your dialect [23:36] toresbe: put your publickey in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and make sure sshd is set up and running properly on the host [23:36] Someone with audio fixing experience in 9.10 please PM me... [23:36] Mike_lifeguard: that wasn't my question [23:36] Mike_lifeguard: I figured out colorized log files.. install the package logtool.. then run 'tail -f /var/log/messages | logtool -o ANSI -b' [23:36] hi [23:36] Mike_lifeguard: i only have a standard swap and / (root) setup. it should be fine via update manager? [23:36] toresbe: then it wasn't clear :) [23:36] n8tuser:k thanks [23:36] Mike_lifeguard: that colorizes them pretty much.. it also parses the logs to make them more readable.. logtool looks like a very nice and robust program [23:36] filgy: cool, thanks! [23:36] Mike_lifeguard: The key to my encrypted 9.10 home directory is encrypted with my login password.

[23:36] Is there anywhere to look for error information an random reboots? Cpu temps are fine, will run memtest tonight [23:37] Mike_lifeguard: In the same manner, I'd like for this to be the case with my SSH key; that I have a passphrase for it, and yet I don't have to type it in. [23:37] userone: Sure, but I recommend you use the alternate CD instead, it will probably be faster (though I don't know if the main servers are still very overloaded, perhaps not) [23:37] Ruge-> umm, your mixing digital output and analog? [23:37] Mike_lifeguard: THe procedure for that isn't obvious... [23:37] fustiont__, if it is faulty hw the system may not have time to log anything before a reboot [23:37] Anyone have any ideas?

And now, connecting to this, it said that my reverse and forwa [23:39] my system is corrupt, [23:39] Whats the best way of changing my uid in Ubuntu? It wont allow you to do in from the gui [23:39] Ruge-> am surprised it even works in windows, one does not normally mixed those two.. but maybe you are lucky.. stick with windows til you get a digital monitor [23:39] userone: my upgrade from jaunty wasnt perfect [23:39] Jabadahut: who told you that?! [23:39] ? [23:39] n8tuser: Actually it's very common mix [23:40] Ahh, so when I get a DVI monitor it should be fine then? [23:40] Jabadahut: You need to do that as a superuser. Use sudo if you're working in the commandline, or gksu for graphical applications [23:40] penguin42-> on same port? [23:40] Jabadahut: However, you almost certainly do not need to delete anything in /usr/local to do that O-o [23:40] Billiard: what problems did you have? [23:40] Jabadahut: i would be careful about randomly deleting things random people tell you to on the interwebs [23:40] n8tuser:it depends what he means by port [23:40] penguin42-> he mentioned his DVI port === carlos is now known as Guest89302 [23:40] chrisr: the usermod command [23:40] weird... [23:41] #ls [23:41] no input/output [23:41] ..... >:o [23:41] How do I resolve the issue, with installing 9.10 [23:41] Ruge looks like it yeah.. just have to wait til you get something compatible [23:41] how can i execute c++ program in ubuntu 9.10 [23:41] holy snot, that's a bunch of responses. I'm sorry, I'm just learning linux right now so please forgive me being so newbish :( [23:41] n8tuser: It's very common to connect a VGA monitor to a DVI port, it's also common to have one VGA and one DVI [23:41] same [23:41] penguin42-> and made that work? [23:41] Jabadahut: have confidence in your ability to learn [23:41] I went to the software center and am proceeding to install the vba frontend [23:41] n8tuser: Yeh that's very common [23:41] n8tuser: if it's dvi-i then it's got analogue output along with the digital so you can easily get a converter that just takes the analogue lines.. it's quite common. Ruge: it should work [23:41] Jabadahut: that is what separates the newbs from the elite [23:42] pretino : http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/compiling-linux-kernel-module.html [23:42] penguin42-> i guess am the unlucky one, i cant make those to work [23:42] toresbe: OK, I'm still pretty sure that can be done, either in seahorse, or with policykit, but I don't know how. Sorry. [23:42] what is thing about any wy [23:42] bencoder: Basically I have a VGA monitor, I connected a VGA-to-DVI plug, and it slots into the DVI port.. However, any monitor connected that way just wont get the resolutions right! [23:42] userone: some config files that i manually changed needed fixed, idk i just always have better luck with a fresh install, you might not have any problems, but a fresh install takes just as much time as an upgrade [23:42] I will get better in time, but for now I ask for help from those who know what they're talking about :D [23:42] thanks again, everybody [23:42] Mike_lifeguard: np.\ [23:42] Ruge: ah, so you do see output? [23:42] pretino : replace foo.o with module name [23:42] Mike_lifeguard: I've got a boatload of bugs to file on seahorse anyway [23:42] bencoder: I see output at 640x480, I cant change the resolution. [23:42] Ruge: can you get the output of the xrandr command somewhere (e.g. a pastebin) and have you tried another VGA->DVI cable? [23:43] penguin42: whats xrandr? [23:43] So how is everyone? [23:43] i cant able to connect internet using network connection uin ubuntu 9.4 [23:43] Ruge: type xrandr and see what you get. might be a case of just adding the extra resolutions as metamodes to your xorg [23:43] Ruge: xrandr is a program that manages the X server resolution settings these days [23:43] userone; http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading have you checked here? [23:43] mycomputer: how are you connected to the internet? [23:43] how can I completely get rid of gdm? It used to be possible by simply removing gdm from all boot levels, but it doesn't seem to be the case anymore. [23:43] Hey, I've got a wireless adapter (Belkin F6D4050 v1 to be specific), and, it's not working on Ubuntu 9.04. Anyone know the fix? [23:44] Billiard: i am going to terminal and typing pppoeconf [23:44] in fact the whole graphical logon thing was off before I updated to Karmic - not sure why it even reactivated it [23:44] http://pastebin.com/m2fe7d5df [23:44] I am having troubles using the device GRUB command to install a FreeDOS on a USB drive [23:44] bencoder-> is that the newer dvi ? it includes analog? my old dvi ports i guess are just pure digital.. [23:44] not sure if this is off topic, but can anyone suggest a usb modem for a laptop to use with Ubuntu? [23:44] mycomputer: how are you physically connected to the internet [23:44] Im Following this blog http://stampy.net/blog/?p=9 [23:44] i'm connected to the internet === JE|2|2Y is now known as Hlao-ru [23:45] Ruge: Tell me a bit more - that says you have 2240x1200 resolution - that sounds great - what have you really got? [23:45] n8tuser: dvi-i has been in use for ages. most dvi ports on graphics cards are dvi-i [23:45] Billiard: i am using bsnl bbd through ethernet [23:45] it's not a big deal :/ === jay is now known as Guest58552 [23:45] bencoder-> ones i've used were not labeled dvi-i just dvi [23:45] hello fellow linux users [23:45] n8tuser: That's normal [23:45] wait how do you put a password word on your computer? [23:46] n8tuser: If they have the 4 pins around the odd flat connector at one side they are -i not -d [23:46] Billiard: i have always done a fresh install in the past, but every single thing on my dual core 4gb ram laptop worked perfectly out of box on 64-bit 9.04 fresh install (except for the adobe flash plugin beta for 64-bit firefox which was easy to install) so i want to try an upgrade [23:46] hello [23:46] my question is, more of a problem really: all my ubuntu pc's have stopped seeing themselves on the network and are now only able to access 1 pc [23:46] penguin42-> oh okay..thanks for the info.. [23:46] DOes anyone know if there is a decent clipboard tool for Ubuntu that can live on my taskbar? used for storing a history of clipboard entries? === icefox_ is now known as micaela [23:46] any ideas, no changes have been made to the network [23:47] penguin42: Atm, i have 2 CRTs connected to my machine. One has a resolution of 1280x960, the other 1600x1200. However can only see out of the 1600x1200 (that is connected to VGA) [23:47] ruge: are you using a dual monitor setup? [23:47] all are on the same workgroup and yes everything was working last night === micaela is now known as michaela [23:47] only thing was done was updates [23:47] ruge: what graphics card? [23:47] bencoder: nVidia GeForce 9400GT [23:47] chrisr: "apt-cache search clipboard | grep manager" [23:47] Can anyone help me with the disconnection problem [23:47] ? [23:47] mycomputer: if you comment out the lines in your /etc/network/interfaces file the network-manager should let you configure it === michaela is now known as Guest65140 [23:47] alguien que me pueda ayudar? [23:47] ruge: you using the closed source driver? [23:47] tengo problemas con mi sistema ubuntu 9.04, [23:48] bencoder: i have no idea what that means heh, hold up ill brb, have to brush my teeth. [23:48] Ruge: Ah OK, what type of graphics card? also on the monitor that it doesn't get right is it a normal VGA lead at the monitor end? [23:48] well, lete me try the upgrade via update manager. if it all goes pear-shaped i can always do a fresh install [23:48] hey there everybody. i got a problem with my tv out (Acer Aspire TRavelmate 290 nb, probably intel graphics). It doesnt work. I know it MUST work because when i boot, it boots on the tv, but i cant activate it in the system settings! [23:48] Erm, quick question. I have a relatively new laptop. Do I install the netbook version of Ubuntu or the desktop version? [23:48] I closed the little thing on the upper-right corner with Evolution/Empathy/Pidgin, I thought I would still see Pidgin in the tray after I open it but it's nowhere to be found, how can I get back the thing with Empathy/Pidgin/Evolution ? === goose is now known as Chris___ [23:48] tengo un problema de "error de segmentacion" [23:48] Billiard: i cant able to understand please tell clearly i am not that much familiar [23:48] please help me, i got 2 girls waiting here to watch a movie :-) === Chris___ is now known as goose [23:48] Ranzo: What monitor size? [23:49] 15.4" [23:49] ruge: ok, well do you use the nvidia settings panel to configure it? if not, that might solve your problems, i'd use Envy to install the latest nvidia driver, then run sudo nvidia-settings and set up your dual monitor setup, then hit the "save settigns to xorg.conf" button [23:49] why does removing gdm from all runlevels *not* keep it from starting up on boot? [23:49] worked fine in jaunty [23:49] mycomputer: you said the network manager says "device not managed" [23:49] p-f it may still be there? how did you removed it? [23:49] Ranzo: It is more of a preference than an issue. I suppose you'll want desktop version. Google Image "ubuntu notebook remix karmic" and "ubuntu desktop karmic" to see how different they are. [23:49] Ranzo: sounds like you have enough room to install the regular version. [23:49] leaf-sheep: cheers [23:50] come to think of it i'm only able to access the last computer that joined the network [23:50] any suggestions [23:50] n8tuser, I used sysv-rc-conf [23:50] mycomputer: edit your /etc/network/interfaces file put # in front of the lines that deal with your dsl connection [23:50] chrisr: I think parcellite is quite nice, by the way. ;) [23:50] Alrighties. Thanks. [23:50] bencoder: I use the nvidia-settings control panel. It just wont let me set a resolution higher than 640x480 on my DVI/VGA monitor... [23:50] * Ranzo hops off! === Skunky|suck is now known as moron [23:50] p-f-> it has an option to removed or purge? [23:50] So I've got a usb gsm modem. I can't get it to work. Does this fall under anyone's realm of knowledge? [23:50] Ruge: ah, I see [23:50] leaf-sheep: better than glipper? [23:50] n8tuser, what do you mean? [23:50] Ranzo: I just installed netbook remix on mine, but it's got a much smaller screen. I love the window management they used to get it to work with this tiny screen- very usable [23:50] Ruge: Does it help if you swap the two monitors? [23:50] n8tuser, it just gives you a checkbox for each runlevel for each service [23:50] penguin42: let me try that now. [23:51] Billiard: where i want to put # weather every line [23:51] p-f-> im referring to the command line... if it has.. try man sysv-rc-conf [23:51] caseyweederman: I don't know a whole lot about it, other than that mine just worked. Out of curiosity, what sort is yours? [23:51] chrisr: My opinion? Yes. But we shouldn't take polls. ;) [23:51] mycomputer: the lines that are for your dsl connection, probably 2 lines [23:51] caseyweederman: in 9.04 network manager is quite good a picking up usb modems [23:51] n8tuser, ah yeah, there's a purge option [23:52] Novatel Ovation MC950D. Rogers. [23:52] I'm using 9.10, and I'm stymied. [23:52] Hello, what commands should I run to reinstall grub in 9.04? [23:52] can anybody help me? i just need to install tv-out, i know it works cos it boots on the tv. if i press FN+F5, the screen gets messed up and nothing happens [23:52] -install +activate [23:52] p-f-> try that.. but just for comparison, i cant remove mine with update-rc.d command either [23:53] is there an IRC channel for Netbook Remix users? [23:53] n8tuser, still no go [23:53] how can i get vuze to work? [23:53] Billiard: if i change it is not showing the option save [23:53] markjones: Not really. There are #ubuntu-mobile -- but you are welcome to ask questions here. ;0 [23:53] i just installed ubuntu and i cant find my c: drive in it [23:53] someone plz help me [23:53] mycomputer: use `gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces` to edit the file [23:53] leaf-sheep: it only stores a max of 100 history items... i want thousands! [23:53] a35441: There are no C:\ in linux. [23:53] obvious troll is obvious [23:53] it's in /hosts [23:53] right.... I have installed ubuntu-netbook-remix via a terminal, but i can't switch to it, any ideas? [23:54] if you did wubi [23:54] a35441 : you will never find [23:54] Maybe you want to mount your C:? [23:54] nadie sabe sobre como resolver el problema de "segmentacion"??? [23:54] Is it an ntfs partition? [23:54] yes [23:54] a35441 : drives are not in linux [23:54] a35441: it should be under the places menu [23:54] a35441: not called C: [23:54] penguin42: sigh, monitor out of frequency [23:54] okay [23:54] install ntfs fuse [23:54] n8tuser, looks like karmic messed up with runlevels [23:54] a35441: Try that, or you may need to mount it manually on the command line. [23:54] brb i will restart now and look again [23:54] Ruge: On both of them? [23:54] penguin42: only this display configuration works [23:55] Ok, another question, how do I restart a usb device? [23:55] Ruge: have you tried just manually setting the res in your xorg? [23:55] chrisr: You could submit that for a feature in parcellite -- Unlimited. Meanwhile, if it does not do what you like, try other clipboard manager. :o [23:55] Ruge: My suspicion is that either the DVI->VGA adapter or the CRT monitor you have on that monitor is blocking the EDID signals that let the card figure out the res of the monitor; you'll have to tell it the sync range manually [23:55] caseyweederman: what do you mean restart a usb device [23:55] ! audio WACOMalt [23:55] Sorry, I don't know anything about audio WACOMalt [23:55] ! audio | WACOMalt [23:55] WACOMalt: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [23:55] bencoder: last nite the monitor displayed at 1280x960.... when i edit the xorg.conf myself and set that resolution, it fails. [23:56] Like instead of unplugging and replugging it physically. === ben is now known as Guest81330 [23:56] penguin42: that could be it, ill just have to learn more about these things. === ikorack-jr is now known as hihi [23:56] can anybody help me? i just need to install tv-out, i know it works cos it boots on the tv. if i press FN+F5, the screen gets messed up and nothing happens [23:56] how can i check to see if ubuntu recives information when i push the scan button on my scanner? [23:56] Ruge: I have a similar problem in that my external monitor doesn't do EDID for no apparent reason [23:56] innomen: if it's anything like mine, it won't. Run the scanner through sane. [23:56] caseyweederman: for what it's worth, I've never found a method faster/better than hotplugging the device. [23:57] penguin42: oh right, still curious how I could get a display last night, but now I cant.. [23:57] caseyweederman, well thats discouraging [23:57] caseyweederman, do you mean xsane? [23:57] Hotplugging? [23:57] I do mean xsane. [23:57] Ruge: Ah not sure, since it's the nvidia it'll be a bit different from what I used to, since they don't do it the same way as the open source stuff [23:57] leaf-sheep: I have just installed glipper, is there any way to know what the binary file is called? its not glipper or anything that beings with gl === moron is now known as you|moron [23:58] penguin42: yeah regretting getting an nVidia card. Their drivers are known to be terrible. [23:58] caseyweederman: I mean unplugging/reconnecting the device [23:58] chrisr: I don't know. I'll install it right now. [23:58] Ruge: If you want dual head it's nvidia or ati and they're both dodgy [23:58] soreau: alsamixer shows me a vga-ish sound graph [23:58] i have problem with vmware when go to https://127.0.0.1:8333/ui/ it doesn`t ask me for pass to login and the page is blank any suggestions ? [23:58] Alas. The device has some arbitrary decision where the majority of the time I plug it in, it fails. [23:58] could anybody on 9.10 32bit try running fpc for me? To see if it's my machine messed up or if it's broken. [23:58] i think i have intel graphics, but i dont how to determinate. please please help me, i know it MUST work cos it boots on my tv, but i dont get it to switch [23:58] WACOMalt, so what exactly is not happening with your sound and did you check alsamixer in ther terminal to see if anything is muted or pcm slider is down ? [23:59] laura_: what do you mean by switch? [23:59] So sometimes I need to replug it upwards of twenty times. [23:59] to switch tv out on [23:59] laura: Do lspci | grep -i vga in a terminal - that will tell you the type of graphics [23:59] Does ubuntu have a windows snapping feature like WINDOWS 7? [23:59] thanks [23:59] I'm worried I'm going to break it. [23:59] chrisr: Can you explain what you mean by snapping? [23:59] penguin42: Ive actually encountered this many times, I found that my resolutions pretty much set themselves how they felt like on Ubuntu 9.04 and LinuxMint 7 [23:59] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) [23:59] coz_: my sound is not muted, and in the sound preferences, under hardware, nothing is listed. alsamixer in terminal shows my card and all the channels though [23:59] thats intel, as i thought [23:59] quick question, anyone have a clue why in Google Chrome, the text in dropdown menus is invisible? [23:59] coz_:db gain=-12 [23:59] how do i activate the tv-out? it's vhs
