[00:00] <running_rabbit07> sp4z: they have it configured, I have it in a VirtualBox
[00:00] <pvl1> scribawf, if u ahve a live cd u can just reinstall grub, there are lot of guides on line
[00:00] <Copywriter> a big partof it also is i don't know how to apply the fix for the release problem i'm hving
[00:00] <Evito> VCoolio; not under the apps menu
[00:00] <VCoolio> Evito: let me check
[00:00] <Evito> typing nautilus in terminal just opens my homedir :)
[00:00] <Evito> VCoolio: thanks
[00:01] <running_rabbit07> sp4z: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8289404&postcount=12
[00:01] <Virus_TB> wrar
[00:01] <VCoolio> Evito: not the menu, open gconf-editor and in there navigate to apps > nautilus > preferences and check the draw_desktop value
[00:02] <Evito> VCoolio, my computer name is desktop, could that have something to do with it (problems began after updating to karmic)
[00:02] <scribawf> pvl1;  thank you that's where i'm looking now again tnx
[00:02] <ZykoticK9> Evito, verify nautilus is controlling the desktop http://paste.ubuntu.com/315482/
[00:02] <Evito> VCoolio; thanks, just opening the config editor fixed it
[00:03] <Copywriter> heck i'm going to install thelts version
[00:03] <Copywriter> just for the heck of it
[00:03] <VCoolio> Evito: than maybe gnome-settings-daemon wasn't running; check that next time
[00:03] <Evito> pretty sure it was, well im not going to touch it if its working
[00:04] <joelawrenceeeee> list
[00:04] <VCoolio> Evito: actually if I login in gnome (which I seldom do) I also don't get a wallpaper and stuff; thought it had to do with using other wm's and disabling gnome-settings-daemon; but maybe there is more to it
[00:04] <samuli> you know what's missing from the ubuntu-wiki.. good instructions how to reinstall the new grub after w7 has messed around with the MBR.
[00:05] <Evito> Vcoolio; i had it running, i wasnt missing wallpaper etc it just didnt associate my desktop with the desktop folder even though it was correctly set
[00:05] <ZykoticK9> VCoolio, i thing your right about it being a daemon problem if opening it fixed it.  FYI i do think it's "show_desktop" and not "draw_desktop" that you suggested (use this for multiple wallpaper)
[00:05] <JayX> how do i register a name? on this ICR
[00:05] <dumnut_> i have a windows computer and i don't want to spend extra money for firewall, can exploit see my keys thru my unprotected computer?
[00:06] <Evito> VCoolio; thank you for your tips regardless if it buggers up i know how to fix it myself now
[00:06] <danielryan> Would someone mind helping with a few problems I have in ubuntu? Im using jaunty and am relatively new to the ubuntu OS.
[00:06] <VCoolio> ZykoticK9: yes, right, I was about to point to show_desktop, but it was solved already
[00:06] <samuli> dumnut, do you mean in ubuntu or in windows?
[00:07] <dumnut_> hi samuli, windows xp
[00:08] <firdau5-away> !windows xp | dumnut
[00:08] <jt76> hey, anyone got divx working on there ubuntu 9.10?
[00:08] <bastid_raZor> dumnut_: ask in ##windows
[00:08] <Scunizi> danielryan: ya gotta ask a question.. pick one problem at a time
[00:08] <samuli> dumnut, not an expert, but I've had no problems with (up-to-date) xp firewall as long as you have something to detect and block the trojans
[00:08] <randomusr> !vista
[00:09] <randomusr> !Windows7
[00:09] <randomusr> hehehe
[00:09] <OerHeks> samuli i suggest order a free ubuntu 9.10 cd / dvd
[00:09] <firdau5-away> jt76, needs to update your codec
[00:09] <mamia> i have found my bluetooth device using "hcitool scan" and also tried to connect to it using "hcitool cc bdaddr" but no luck... am i suppose to mount the device some how before connecting?>
[00:09] <OerHeks> with dial up it takes days to download
[00:09] <danielryan> Can anyone help me with usb devices in Virtualbox?
[00:09] <randomusr> !nerds
[00:10] <chewy> I have a mail server and it can receive incoming mail thru pop3/imap but outgoing mail with smtp wont work
[00:10] <randomusr> ok done now
[00:10] <dumnut_> hi bastid_raZor good point, samuli: good point too
[00:10] <ZykoticK9> have the issues with slow/crashing VMs with VirtualBox 3.0.10 been resolved on 64bit karmic yet?  i keep having to uncheck it from available updates in Update Manager (so I can keep my working 3.0.8).
[00:10] <firdau5-away> samuli, you can get an old version of ubuntu from me
[00:10] <firdau5-away> I mean 9.04
[00:10] <jt76> firedau5-away: well i wasnt using it in 9.04 so i downloaded the TAR from DIVX labs and it installed fine (aka no error msg)
[00:10] <samuli> I don't need a version of ubuntu, thank you guys :)
[00:10] <firdau5-away> but you need to pay me 1st. for postal charge
[00:11] <coastal_> how do i run openssh-sever
[00:11] <firdau5-away> samuli, you'll
[00:11] <Evito> anyway to allow an installer under wine to write into my linux desktop folder (it does see the dir but its not allowed)
[00:11] <phantomcircuit> I'm trying to add an rsa signing subkey to a DSA ElGamal key that already exists
[00:11] <samuli> I already have ordered and shipped two ubuntus and two kubuntus to my local library and I'm using 9.10 myself
[00:11] <mpdhelp> Is anyone familiar with getting MPD to work properly?
[00:11] <phantomcircuit> but seahorse is freezing after i enter the passphrase for the key
[00:11] <Grim76__> coastal_: You have to install it first. sudo apt-get install openssh-server.  Once that is done the service should start automatically.
[00:11] <mpdhelp> Currently it stops playback after logout.
[00:11] <ZykoticK9> coastal_, once it's installed and you've rebooted, you should be able to "ssh localhost" and get a login prompt.
[00:12] <Anacranom> someone here once gave me a simple command to flush the /tmp dir,, and i can't for the life of me remember it, any help?
[00:12] <kindofabuzz> sudo rm -Rf /temp/*
[00:12] <danielryan> can anyone help me out in virtualbox?
[00:12] <dumnut_> what is the command to eject cd?
[00:12] <Grim76__> ZykoticK9: Last time I checked a reboot was not necessary to get the service to start.  Unless there were other issues.
[00:12] <danielryan> I have 9.04 as host and xp as guest
[00:12] <kindofabuzz> Anacranom, sudo rm -Rf /temp/*
[00:13] <phantomcircuit> kindofabuzz, uh sudo rm -rf /tmp/*
[00:13] <ZykoticK9> Grim76__, it's probably NOT required ;)
[00:13] <Anacranom> kindofabuzz,  um, /temp is not a dir on linux...
[00:13] <phantomcircuit> kindofabuzz, and more than likely that will cause system instability
[00:13] <kindofabuzz> Anacranom, um sorry
[00:13] <phantomcircuit> Anacranom, why do you want to clean out the tmp dir?
[00:13] <kindofabuzz> phantomcircuit, why not?
[00:13] <chewy> omg I just wasted my time in here
[00:13] <chewy> whats the chat to smtp
[00:14] <chewy> mail help
[00:14] <kindofabuzz> chewy, why not try #linux?
[00:14] <phantomcircuit> kindofabuzz, that's the wrong question to ask, first you ask why would you
[00:14] <Pholious> hey guys, did anyone ever have the problem, after installing Emerald Theme Manager, that all programs lost their menubar ?
[00:14] <joshjtl> hey folks, anyone know if there are any images with ubunt pre-gnome3 ?
[00:14] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, its not flushing on exit/logoff/restartx or even reboot
[00:14] <chewy> i did ubuntu because i am using ubuntu for myserver
[00:14] <phantomcircuit> Anacranom, and you expect it to do that why?
[00:14] <kindofabuzz> chewy, if it's a general linux question you'd be better off there
[00:15] <kindofabuzz> Pholious, nvidia card?
[00:15] <ramblagir> Is there a way to download all (or a large part) of the packages in the main repository as a disk image?
[00:15] <Pholious> kindofabuzz, yup
[00:15] <samuli> Pholious, after installing it or after running it? Never had that problem + seems kind of weird because emerald isn't in control of the menubars.
[00:15] <Scunizi> !aptoncd | ramblagir
[00:15] <ramblagir> Scunizi: well, outside of Ubuntu
[00:15] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, isn't it supposed to rid itself of the temp files from downloaded content and like copying cds/dvds? a
[00:16] <danielryan> !virtualbox
[00:16] <PhantomLink> back :D
[00:16] <phantomcircuit> samuli, emerald is in control of the menu bar, sort of, emerald installs compiz, compiz replaces metacity bing bang no menubars
[00:16] <Scunizi> ramblagir: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[00:16] <ramblagir> Scunizi: my Ubuntu computer has no internet access, but I have a Mac that does, so how could I download all the packages from my Mac?
[00:16] <osubuckey> im impressed with karmic koala :D
[00:16] <kindofabuzz> Pholious, google not title bar ubuntu and you will find a fix
[00:16] <sanubuntu> hey guys, i've used the same 9.10 disk on two different laptops .. the first went off without a hitch .. but on this one (an old toshiba satellite) i don't get a desktop image, even tho i've selected one of the ubuntu studio ones.  what could be the case?  when i go to shut down, the image does appear briefly, but is not rendered in session.
[00:16] <sanubuntu> i just save a photo to the desktop to see if it shows up, it doesn't show up on 'the desktop' area, but it IS in the desktop file  ...
[00:16] <ramblagir> Scunizi: thanks, I'll see if there's an option for all the packages as an iso
[00:16] <samuli> phantomcircuit, the wm is draws the menubars?
[00:16] <Scunizi> ramblagir: there isn't.. it would be *huge* ..
[00:17] <samuli> I thought that was gtk-2.0 in gnome
[00:17] <danielryan> Can someone please help me out with a virtualbox problem?
[00:17] <wamellx> does anyone here know why ubuntu is saying that my hard drive has 4850173 bad spots
[00:17] <ramblagir> Scunizi: ok, maybe not all of them, but the most popular, perhaps? ;) or, more specifically, the developer tools packages
[00:17] <Pholious> kindofabuzz, ahh, so compiz is the one bugging me? :D cheers
[00:17] <kindofabuzz> wamellx, because it does?
[00:17] <ramblagir> danielryan: #virtualbox can be of help
[00:17] <wgrant> samuli, phantomcircuit The client draws the menu bars, not the WM.
[00:17] <phantomcircuit> samuli, you're right, im guessing that he made the same mistake that i made
[00:17] <Scunizi> sanubuntu: right mouse click the desktop and choose "arrange icons" or something similar
[00:17] <danielryan> thanks
[00:17] <wgrant> wamellx: The hard disk is actually the one reporting that. Sometimes they lie, sadly :(
[00:17] <phantomcircuit> samuli, im guessing he means that the window decorations are missing
[00:17] <wamellx> kindofabuzz: but it doesnt
[00:18] <wamellx> wgrant: ah
[00:18] <samuli> ahh. right
[00:18] <Scunizi> ramblagir: there's no iso.. you'll have to download one at a time
[00:18] <sanubuntu> Scunizi: ok
[00:18] <wamellx> im mainly just wondering my windows doesnt say anything
[00:18] <ramblagir> that's unfortunate. thanks, though, Scunizi :)
[00:18] <wgrant> wamellx: You'll find a checkbox to tell Ubuntu to stop warning you about the imminent failure.
[00:18] <kindofabuzz> wamellx, so your intuition is right and the hard drive is wrong?
[00:18] <wgrant> wamellx: Windows doesn't do monitoring like that by default.
[00:18] <wamellx> ah
[00:18] <wgrant> kindofabuzz: Yes. SMART lies.
[00:18] <kindofabuzz> wamellx, because windows sucks
[00:19] <phantomcircuit> wgrant, SMART lies? really now?
[00:19] <samuli> Pholious, for a quick fix you can try "metacity --replace &" to see if it is the compiz/emerald that is the problem
[00:19] <phantomcircuit> wgrant, under what scenerio is SMART going to lie?
[00:19] <wgrant> phantomcircuit: Some hard disk implementations of it lie about various attributes, yes
[00:19] <phantomcircuit> wgrant, why would they do that?
[00:20] <phantomcircuit> Anacranom, check /etc/default/rcS
[00:20] <aaron1> can somebody help me?
[00:20] <phantomcircuit> TMPTIME should be 0
[00:20] <wgrant> phantomcircuit: Bug #438136
[00:20] <Pholious> samuli, terminal printed "[1] 3783" and made compiz crash, didn't pop menu back yet though :D
[00:20] <sanubuntu> scunizi, i don't get that option on right click .. i get 'create folder, create launcher, create document, etc'
[00:21] <phantomcircuit> anything >= 0 is acceptable
[00:21] <mpdhelp> Is anyone familiar with MPD on Ubuntu?
[00:21] <aaron1> windows no longer works on my system, and i would like to make ubuntu my only OS. however, i still have files on my harddrive (accessible through ubuntu) on windows that i want to transfer
[00:21] <WolVenom> is it possible to use iPhone with ubuntu?
[00:22] <aaron1> is there a way to install ubuntu and transfer windows files from my hard drive?
[00:22] <sanubuntu> aaron, you will have to save your files to another medium before you install or you will lose all
[00:23] <aaron1> sanubuntu, do you mean something like an external harddrive?
[00:23] <samuli> Pholious, oopsie :)
[00:23] <phantomcircuit> aaron1, if the windows partition uses less than half the drive you can do a side by side install, copy the files from windows to linux partitions, then delete and windows partition and extend the linux partition
[00:23] <samuli> Pholious, you're beyond my help then
[00:23] <sanubuntu> aaron1, either an ext hdd or a usb stick/flash drive, or a cd or dvd, whatever you have
[00:23] <Pholious> samuli, haha ty for tip though, got some tips on the ubuntu forums, gonna try them out ;)
[00:23] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, try metacity --replace without the &
[00:23] <aaron1> phantomcircuit, the windows partition takes up too much space to install an ubuntu partition. i'm running on the trial right now using the disc
[00:23] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, its- TMPTIME=0	SULOGIN=no	DELAYLOGIN=no	UTC=no	VERBOSE=no	FSCKFIX=no
[00:24] <arbir> i have a p3 with 496mb ram. will 9.10 work on this ?
[00:24] <Bilz> hello
[00:24] <samuli> Pholious, compiz "crashing" is supposed to happen though.. but you should have metacity title bars though.
[00:24] <BluesKaj> aaron1, yes , create an ext3 or 4 partition for ubuntu if you haven't already , then once ubuntu is installed , the file manager should see your windows partition
[00:24] <wgrant> arbir: I run Ubuntu 9.10 on a few P3-era machines with 384MiB of RAM, so you should be OK.
[00:24] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, no luck :D
[00:24] <phantomcircuit> aaron1, in that case your only choice is to backup to an external hard drive before install
[00:24] <Bilz> im trying to run gtk-gnutella on 9.04, i svned the latest version and installed. anyway, its not connecting. says i appear to be behind a firewall. any ideas where to look to fix this? didnt realise i had a firewall on the go?
[00:24] <arbir> neither live cd, nor install works. it just hangs with the logo
[00:25] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, did metacity crash? close silently? is it still running?
[00:25] <arbir> wgrant: so what to do about the freezing.
[00:25] <shawn1980> how can i fix a ownership error   when i type sudo it says its on gid 1001 and it should be on 0 how do i change the gid ????
[00:25] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, it says "compiz.real assert failure: *** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/compiz.real: double free or corruption (!prev): 0x09af88d0 ***"
[00:25] <Pholious> samuli, hmm, it's weird, some programs do have menu bars and some don't... like firefox and eclipse do have one
[00:25] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, pastebin the line with the command and all the program output
[00:26] <Pholious> then xchat and terminal don't
[00:26] <aaron1> okay, thank you sanubuntu, phantomcircuit and blueskaj for your help. i will go buy an external hard drive
[00:26] <shawn1980> how can i fix a ownership error   when i type sudo it says its on gid 1001 and it should be on 0 how do i change the gid ????
[00:26] <shawn1980> i tryed to chown it but it does not work
[00:26] <shawn1980> lol
[00:26] <samuli> Pholious, by menu bars do you mean title bars?
[00:27] <sanubuntu> aaron1 depending on the files you have you might be able to upload them to some free host .. documents to google docs for instance
[00:27] <phantomcircuit> samuli, he means window decorations
[00:27] <hulkusz> haliho
[00:27] <aaron1> i have over 20 gigs in recorded music and 30 gigs of music
[00:27] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, uh do you know the root password?
[00:27] <Pholious> samuli, yeah the main menu, with File and Options etc
[00:27] <shawn1980> yes
[00:27] <aaron1> unfortunate but that's the case
[00:27] <shawn1980> i'm owner
[00:27] <samuli> Pholious, wow, that's a weird bug
[00:27] <phantomcircuit> samuli, nvm assumptions make an ass out of me
[00:27] <phantomcircuit> :P
[00:28] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, screen shot?
[00:28] <sanubuntu> aaron1, :P
[00:28] <hulkusz> bb
[00:28] <shawn1980> phanto how do i fix it
[00:28] <samuli> phantomcircuit, hehe :) I thought he was talking about title bars too
[00:28] <TheCheeze> can anyone tell me how to make a background bundle like some of the ones that comes with Karmic?

[00:30] <shawn1980> ok
[00:30] <shawn1980> thanks
[00:30] <corey> how can  i use a wireless adapter to get internet in ubuntu
[00:30] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, samuli: http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/8997/screenshoteg.png
[00:30] <Pholious> it's a bit bugged with the compiz reset lol
[00:30] <Pholious> the black bar
[00:30] <TheCheeze> corey- do you have one installed right now? If so go to system - administration - hardware profiles and enable it
[00:31] <TheCheeze> err, hadware drivers
[00:31] <corey> idk how to sdo all that or install it
[00:31] <Pholious> hmm, it's not using the theme either
[00:31] <TheCheeze> by installed i mean is it physically inside of your computer
[00:31] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, what's the output of `ls -l /usr/bin|grep sudo$`
[00:31] <corey> i just pluged it in and hoped it works lol
[00:31] <sanubuntu> this problem driving me batty, i trying to get this laptop ready to leave as a gift in costa rica b4 i leave on saturday .. arrrrgggghhhh
[00:32] <TheCheeze> corey- tehn you will need to follow the directions i listed above
[00:32] <shawn1980> let me try it brb
[00:32] <Anacranom> corey, what does ifconfig tell you, what does iwconfig tell you? what about iwlist scan? have you done all updates? have you enabled the Restricted drivers?
[00:32] <wgrant> TheCheeze: Only for very, very few wireless cards will that be necessary.
[00:32] <freaky[t]> what is gnomenu?
[00:32] <wgrant> corey: What if you click the network icon on the top panel?
[00:32] <janisozaur> how do i configure my system to use gcc 4.3 instead of 4.4? is there any
[00:32] <jk1> NetworkManager Applet might be of help
[00:32] <corey> idk what yall talking ab out
[00:32] <TheCheeze> wgrant, i am assuming his is not working right off the bat if he is asking how to get it working
[00:32] <corey> im a woindows user usualy
[00:32] <janisozaur> how do i configure my system to use gcc 4.3 instead of 4.4? is there any shorthand like update-alternatives?
[00:32] <phantomcircuit> Anacranom, first of all in xchat try /set gui_hide_menu OFF
[00:33] <preet> I have a (hopefully) simple question regarding sudo syntax: I want to run an application that I'm developing with root permission. The application path is /home/user/myapp/myapp.runme... I can't just 'sudo pathname'. How can I run the app?
[00:33] <phantomcircuit> oops wrong one
[00:33] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, ???
[00:33] <wgrant> corey: On the bar at the top right of the screen, next to the volume icon, you should see an icon that looks like an antenna. Click on that.
[00:33] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, ok, np
[00:33] <corey> no i see what looks like 2 computers
[00:33] <jk1> download and compile the correct gcc version
[00:33] <phantomcircuit> er
[00:33] <phantomcircuit> brb
[00:34] <Anacranom> corey, what release of ubuntu you installed?
[00:34] <wgrant> corey: OK, it depends on your Ubuntu version. Click on that anyway.
[00:34] <corey> x-ubuntu
[00:34] <corey> x
[00:34] <corey> ok i did now what
[00:34] <wgrant> corey: Does it show you a list of wireless networks?
[00:34] <phantomcircuit> yeah as i suspected
[00:34] <corey> no it does not
[00:34] <phantomcircuit> Anacranom, /set gui_menu_hide off then restart xchat
[00:35] <wgrant> corey: Xubuntu isn't a version of Ubuntu. The version is something like 8.04 or 9.10.
[00:35] <Anacranom> corey, just so we know, what release of xubuntu? 8.04? 8.10?
[00:35] <corey> 9.10
[00:35] <corey> idk man
[00:35] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, um not it again ;-)
[00:35] <corey> the latest one
[00:35] <phantomcircuit> Anacranom, restart xchat
[00:35] <samuli> preet, the way I run stuff is sudo sh ./foo/aplication.run, not sure if that's what you're after.
[00:35] <phantomcircuit> it doesnt update the gui until you restart for some reason that's why i restarted
[00:36] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, why??? i have no issue with exchat or anything other than the /tmp dir?
[00:36] <shawn1980> its rwsr-xr-x 2 root root  123448 2009 06-22 1214 sudo phantomcircuit
[00:36] <phantomcircuit> oh
[00:36] <phantomcircuit> shit
[00:36] <phantomcircuit> Anacranom, lol im trying to help tooo many peopel
[00:36] <phantomcircuit> wrong person
[00:36] <FloodBot3> phantomcircuit: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:36] <shawn1980> that was the output
[00:36] <corey> nvm im going back to windows
[00:36] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, ok, np
[00:37] <TheCheeze> does anyone happen to know how to make a wallpaper "theme" in Karmic? I don't know how to work it better or i would google. I mean like how there are some wallpaper options with multiple pictures that it cycles thorugh...
[00:37] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, i know the feeling ;-)
[00:37] <ernz> Hi, I just did a fresh install of Karmic on my laptop. I haven't been prompted to install the proprietary NVidia drivers and they don't appear in jockey-gtk. Does anyone know how to see/enable them please?
[00:38] <eae> I am trying to install ubuntu remix my laptop . . . the install seems to be frozen, any suggestions?  I am installing from an ISO I burned to DVD
[00:38] <Anacranom> good riddens! ppl like him need to stick with being stuck
[00:38] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, what version are you using? 8.x? 9.x?
[00:38] <freaky[t]> how do I install a X11 cursor theme?
[00:38] <Dravekx> I have a question...
[00:38] <samuli> eae, what does "apt-cache search nvidia-glx" come up with?
[00:38] <Anacranom> !ask Dravekx
[00:38] <shawn1980> i upgraded to 9.x and my x-server has not worked since
[00:39] <preet> samuli: ty for the response -- I'm trying to run an app I've compiled already (C++), using sh tries to run it like a bash script?
[00:39] <Anacranom> !ask | Dravekx
[00:39] <eae> apt-cache?
[00:39] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, you upgraded to 9.10 or 9.04?
[00:39] <Dravekx> I have 2 drives on my ubuntu server, one of them is NTFS... my main dirve is ubuntu server, how can i access the other hard drive?
[00:39] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, samuli, I'm back, ubuntu didn't like whatever I tried, had to reboot
[00:39] <shawn1980> 9.10
[00:39] <eae> I cannot issue any commands
[00:39] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, well first off your sudo binary is too small
[00:39] <phantomcircuit> -rwsr-xr-x  1 root   root     143656 2009-06-22 09:15 sudo
[00:39] <shawn1980> ok
[00:40] <shawn1980> how do i fix that
[00:40] <samuli> eae, umm.. well try /system/settings/hardware drivers
[00:40] <phantomcircuit> well more than likely your upgrade didnt go quite as planned
[00:40] <shawn1980> yes
[00:40] <eae> I inserted the disk, set DVD to first boot device, a pleasant looking install started, then the clock froze
[00:41] <ernz> samuli: Is this help for me? I am having nvidia problems.
[00:41] <shawn1980> so is there any thing i can do
[00:41] <Dravekx> I backed up all my files to my 2nd hard disk with windows server and then formatted the 1st drive and put ubuntu server on it... is there anyway to access the 2nd disk?
[00:41] <samuli> oh, sorry, eae, I was talking to ernz
[00:41] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, try sudo and paste the entire output including the command line
[00:41] <Anacranom> shawn1980, try to use the nick of the person you are talking to, the one thats helping you, in your posts, it will help them see your replies much easier
[00:41] <shawn1980> ok
[00:41] <mgv1> hi, can you help at? when i try to aprove flash camera everything freezes, wht can i do?
[00:42] <shawn1980> ok anacranom
[00:42] <shawn1980> brb
[00:42] <eae> is there a channel for installation issues?
[00:42] <ernz> samuli: Hardware drivers window (jockey-gtk) says no prop drivers are in use. Window is blank. apt-cache search nvidia-glx returns about 15 lines of packages.
[00:42] <Jack21> hmm i cant seem to join a different channel when i type /join ##php it wont let me :(
[00:42] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/4356/screenshot1op.png
[00:43] <samuli> ernz, there's your drivers if you have a supported nvidia card
[00:43] <Evito> how do i go about making a keycombo that allows me to click a fullscreen program to kill it?
[00:43] <ernz> samuli: I was using nvidia-glx-185 in jaunty. This is in the list. How do I install and enable it? It was just a case of clicking "Enable" in Jaunty.
[00:43] <jrib> Evito: use xbindkeys to call up « xkill »
[00:43] <xenocampanoli> Where do I go to ask about using netcat?
[00:44] <Evito> jrib; im quite the nub still with linux, could you hold my hand? :)
[00:44] <xenocampanoli> I want to use netcat to scan network traffic on root for my own machine.  I want to do this to get the data my program is sending over a channel to debug the data.
[00:44] <mrXX> jrib dude i ran into a serious problem in ubuntu
[00:44] <eae> how long should a normal ubuntu remix installation take?
[00:44] <Xubuntus> Hello people! I the guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting there is a part named "Loading a working sound configuration". I'm now on LiveCD'n (9.10), and it's not possible to find the file being spoken of in the guide; asound.state
[00:44] <Xubuntus> Where is it?
[00:45] <jrib> Evito: unfortunately, I'm about to go study.  Just look for some xkbindkeys examples (actually the man page and its homepage should be enough) and bind some key combo to run xkill
[00:45] <samuli> ernz, "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-185" if you have problems with it and can't get to graphical interface do "sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-185" and try again. If even that doesn't work do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[00:45] <Xubuntus> How do you do it?
[00:45] <mgv1> there is anyway to join voice chats? i couldnt find a working site - flash gets freeze with audio
[00:45] <jrib> mrXX: ?
[00:45] <Evito> how do i staart xkeybinds etc thats my prob
[00:45] <mrXX> jrib i modified content of alsa-base.conf and now ubuntu doesnt restart , i get the GRUB shell and i have no idea what to do
[00:45] <Xubuntus> I want to copy it and use it in a Xubuntu-installation.
[00:45] <samuli> ernz, just giving you instructions in case things go awry
[00:45] <nerdy_kid> anyone know the command to spin down a cdrom drive?
[00:45] <mrXX> jrib i miss ubuntu, i dont wanna lose all my things there
[00:45] <xenocampanoli> Where do I go to ask about using netcat?
[00:45] <jatt> compiling a vanilla linux kernel in karmic is giving me:
[00:45] <jatt> kernel/kallsyms.c:529: internal compiler error: in pop_scope, at c-decl.c:859
[00:45] <jatt> are there any known issues with gcc in karmic?
[00:45] <jrib> mrXX: I doubt that's related to you editing alsa-base.conf, but you can always boot a live cd and revert the file
[00:46] <ernz> samuli: Ahhh, that takes me back to the days of Edgy. :) I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the help. I'll let you know how I get on.
[00:46] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, do locate asound.state
[00:46] <samuli> ernz, cool :)
[00:46] <shawn1980> hey phantomciruit it says /etc/sudoers is owned   by gid 1001 should be 0 segmentation fault
[00:46] <mrXX> jrib damn, why didnt i get the idea!! thanks so much dude, i will try that
[00:46] <mirror_man> Ubuntu 9.10 does not configure my screen res properly, it only gives 800x600 max and I want 1024x768. My monitor will support higher than this so that's ok. Graphics is intel 82865G. I made an xorg.conf and put the right line in section screen -> subsection display but the screen res is still 800x600 after rebooting. Question: how do I get ubuntu to recognise xorg.conf?
[00:46] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, well you'll have to restart in single user mode and change the file permissions
[00:47] <VCoolio> Evito: xbindkeys not xkeybinds
[00:47] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, Doesn't find it.
[00:47] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, it's the only way
[00:47] <shawn1980> ok
[00:47] <Evito> just installed it, how do i start it?
[00:47] <Evito> does it have a GUI
[00:47] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, locate asound.state gives me this- $ locate asound.state   /var/lib/alsa/asound.state
[00:47] <shawn1980> ok you got the command i'm kind of knew phantom
[00:47] <ernz> samuli: Drivers installed. How do I restart X?
[00:48] <woodyjlw> has there been any updates for the fglrx drivers on the older ati cards? like the ati 200m built into the hp laptop.  I crashed my wireless and may need to reinstall and thinking about going back to 9.04 from 8.10
[00:48] <VCoolio> Evito: you need another package for a gui, but it's not that useful, you can just edit ~/.xbindkeysrc
[00:48] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, is he in the /etc/sudoers file?
[00:48] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, think I should try Beryl manager? or impossible under regular ubuntu?
[00:48] <ItaloDaniel> alguien habla español???
[00:48] <rsc___> did someone say "beryl manager"?
[00:48] <VCoolio> Evito: run xbindkeys -d  to get a default ~/.xbindkeysrc with explanation in it
[00:49] <murilod> alguem  do brasil ?
[00:49] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, Yeah, but (booting from the LiveCD) that directory is empty for me.
[00:49] <phantomcircuit> Anacranom, it doesnt matter the permissions for the sudoers file are wrong so sudo doesnt trust the file
[00:49] <phantomcircuit> so unless he changed the root password to something he knows his only option is single user
[00:49] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, Any idea how to "make" the file?
[00:49] <Anacranom> phantomcircuit, ahhh
[00:49] <robert__> is the array kernel beneficial?
[00:49] <xenocampanoli> Is there a channel devoted to things like use of netcat?  I there appears to not be one named netcat.
[00:49] <preet> srry to repeat... I'm trying to run a (C++) app I've compiled with root priveledges. I can't figure out the right syntax to use. 'sudo pathname' or 'sudo sh pathname' doesnt work. Does anyone have any ideas?
[00:50] <murilod> estou com uma dúvida sobre som no ubuntu 9.10
[00:50] <Xubuntus> Can I somehow copy the soundconfiguration that the LiveCD is using right now to my Xubuntu-installation?
[00:50] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, so u dont have xubuntu installed?
[00:50] <Evito> VCoolio; i see -dg listed as option too, what does the defaults guile do?
[00:50] <murilod> alguem me ajuda ?
[00:50] <Mercury> Argh, I give up.  How the frell do I get beeps from a terminal to trigger an actual beep from the PC speaker instead of some wav file played through the sound card?
[00:50] <icedwater> preet, is it set to executable?
[00:50] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, ahh, yes, look in /media/
[00:50] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, chown root:root /etc/sudoers && chmod 440 /etc/sudoers
[00:50] <phantomcircuit> that should be enough
[00:50] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, Yes. Xubuntu installed. It has that file. UbuntuLiveCD is where I am now. It does (appearently) not.
[00:50] <ernz> samuli: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg seems to be defunct. Doesn't work. Any other ideas to get NVidia drivers working?
[00:50] <shawn1980> ok
[00:50] <VCoolio> Evito: don't know, never seen / used it; promise: editing the file manually is just as easy
[00:51] <petteyg> Have an Acer 5535 that screen does not come on after resuming from suspend.
[00:51] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, ahh, yes, look in /media/
[00:51] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, you werent having any problems before you installed beryl?
[00:51] <LjL> xenocampanoli: don't quote me on that, but ##bash will possibly help you with issues related to various "low-level" commands
[00:51] <nerdy_kid> anyone know the command to spin down a cdrom drive?
[00:51] <Evito> VCoolio; thanks, shouldnt be this "hard" for me doh
[00:51] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, not too sure yet what Beryl does, but when I create a new user, the title bar is just there
[00:51] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, did you read my question?
[00:51] <VCoolio> Evito: remember that mod4 = windows key, rest is like you expect
[00:51] <Evito> I was born in the command line age and all :)
[00:51] <freaky[t]> is there something like kde-apps.org for gnome?
[00:51] <Mercury> Ubuntu 9.10, it was working fine in 9.04.
[00:52] <preet> icedwater: I don't think it is, I'll try it out. But I've executed the app without sudo and its all good
[00:52] <samuli> ernz, I don't know frankly.. I'm not sure with this new version of xorg if editing the xorg.conf is any use
[00:52] <Evito> VCoolio; thanks for the tip
[00:52] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, i have copied over the live cd's xorg.conf from the live session to the installed partition so i don't see why not
[00:52] <phantomcircuit> petteyg, ati video card?
[00:52] <icedwater> Hm, that means it should be executable. Check the permissions in ls -l.
[00:52] <rsc___> hey folks.
[00:52] <Pholious> has to be one of the programs I installed to change my desktop a bit, I installed emerald theme manager, KDE desktop (don't use this anymore), cairo-dock
[00:52] <Flare-Laptop> Mercury: sudo modprobe pcspkr
[00:52] <rsc___> just curious, what do you all think about how ubuntu theming is moving?
[00:52] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, is this a new install?
[00:52] <petteyg> phantomcircuit: yes
[00:52] <samuli> ernz, this is what the meaningful part of the file I have "Section "Device"
[00:52] <samuli> 	Identifier	"Default Device"
[00:52] <samuli> 	Driver	"nvidia"
[00:52] <samuli> 	Option	"NoLogo"	"True"
[00:52] <samuli> EndSection
[00:52] <samuli> "
[00:52] <FloodBot3> samuli: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:52] <robert__> is the array kernel beneficial?
[00:52] <Sagaci> hey guys, I'm having trouble installing ubuntu off a live cd. I've got windows 7 installed and would like to dual boot between them but the ubiquity seems to hang just before the partition stage.
[00:52] <icedwater> Also, if you compiled it, you shouldn't have to use sh to run it again, it should execute by itself.
[00:53] <samuli> oops
[00:53] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, the file in media IS FROM THE ORIGINAL XUBUNTU! I want to FIND the one in UbuntuLiveCD to copy TO XUBUNTU.
[00:53] <samuli> didn't know that was going to be pasted as separate lines
[00:53] <Flare-Laptop> !paste | samuli
[00:53] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, installed it all last week, didn't have title bar since then
[00:53] <randomusr> Is anyone using an X-Fi soundcard with the commercial driver?
[00:53] <phantomcircuit> petteyg, im guessing your screwed http://www.ubuntuhcl.org/browse/product+ati--radeon-hd-3200?id=6832
[00:53] <icedwater> Xubuntus: where is your CD mounted, then?
[00:53] <SetiAmon> I am randomusr
[00:53] <SetiAmon> you mean the creative beta drivers?yep.
[00:54] <preet> icedwater: I can run it by itself without sudo. Yes, the file is executable... but the program uses I/O and I need to run it with root
[00:54] <Xubuntus> icedwater, Good question. In media are only my two harddrives.
[00:54] <randomusr> SetiAmon, I thought they had production drivers release?
[00:54] <samuli> Flare-Laptop, thanks, I know. I just thought that was going to come up as one line
[00:54] <SetiAmon> for linux?
[00:54] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, well the first step i would take is to `rm -rf ~/*&&rm -rf ~/.*`
[00:54] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, did you have to install something to get it? if so then install in the live session, then cp the file over... whats the issue?
[00:54] <phantomcircuit> just in case it's some strange configuration that you're unaware of
[00:55] <Flare-Laptop> samuli: Its ok, no biggie
[00:55] <preet> and so I can run it through terminal as a normal user, by going into the directory the app is in and typing "./myapp.run", but I don't know how to do the same thing with sudo
[00:55] <SetiAmon> http://connect.creativelabs.com/linux/default.aspx I am using these randomusr
[00:55] <bastid_raZor> Pholious: that is probably a bad idea to follow phantomcircuit's advice
[00:55] <shawn1980> phantomciruit that comanned did not work can
[00:55] <Xubuntus> The Cd is in cd-rom. Are you telling me that the LiveCD BEFORE actually contains the configuration I want? (The one the BOOTED cd is using.)
[00:55] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, that will compeletly erase your home directory
[00:55] <phantomcircuit> guess i should have given more warning
[00:55] <jajabeen> hey looking for some help with karmic koala
[00:55] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, Not that I now of.
[00:56] <bastid_raZor> phantomcircuit: that is never wise to do.
[00:56] <phantomcircuit> bastid_raZor, really now?
[00:56] <VCoolio> preet: first sudo -s  and then ./myapp.run ?
[00:56] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, Well, might be ALSA-update, reinstall then.
[00:56] <phantomcircuit> do explain
[00:56] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, the live cd creates a tmp partition,,, your live session you can install stuff to
[00:56] <Pholious> ugh, too late
[00:56] <shawn1980> can i up redo the upgrade ?
[00:56] <preet> VCoolio: that did it, cheers
[00:56] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, and you ran it from single user as root?
[00:56] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, okay, good! Where is it?
[00:56] <shawn1980> phantomciruit
[00:56] <SetiAmon> randomusr i should say i am running jaunty not karmic because when i upgraded to karmic i had to much problems with sound,even the 'out of the box' is distorted and broken and i can't install the creative drivers so i gave up and went back to jaunty.
[00:56] <icedwater> Xubuntus: I'm sorry, I didn't catch the rest of your situation..
[00:57] <bastid_raZor> phantomcircuit: yes, if you think someone has a configuration issue either create a new user and test or make a backup of suspsect configuration. never just wipe and be done with it.
[00:57] <icedwater> Probably best for Anacranom to help you :P
[00:57] <icedwater> preet: Did sudo -s work?
[00:57] <shawn1980> oh how do i get to a single user
[00:57] <shawn1980> ?
[00:57] <shawn1980> phantomciruit
[00:57] <preet> yes, it did, thank you!
[00:57] <shawn1980> i'm new sorry
[00:57] <phantomcircuit> bastid_raZor, im looking for the fastest way to solve his problem
[00:57] <samuli> Anacranom, is it a ramdrive that is mounted on /tmp?
[00:57] <phantomcircuit> not necessarily identify what is causing it
[00:57] <icedwater> Well, don't thank me, I've never used sudo -s before. I'm reading the man page now.
[00:58]  * icedwater winks at preet.
[00:58] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, just install whatever you installed on the "real" installation to this live session, then locate the file and cp it over
[00:58] <Pholious> well, atm it's all deleted and still no title bar :O
[00:58] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, icedwater. I have booted the UbuntuLiveCD 9.10. I'm in here now. I also have a Xubuntu on a HardDrive. I want to copy the AUDIO-configuration from UbuntuLive-environment to Xubuntu (on harddrive).
[00:58] <preet> icedwater: I'm used to using just 'su' on Fedora... itd be nice if all distros used a similar method to give a normal user temp root access =)
[00:58] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, configuration might not be reloaded/regenerated until restart, so uh restart
[00:59] <ernz> samuli: I got it sussed. Fixed it by: 1) Install nvidia nvidia-glx-185 package. 2) Run nvidia-xconfig (This writes the new xorg.conf) 3) Restart 4) compiz --replace - SIMPLES!
[00:59] <WinterWeaver> I need to update mlt-python package. If I force it to upgrade it says it will remove, '...debian-also', in favour of, 'debian-pulseaudio'. (more details here: http://dpaste.com/118941/ ) ... Can I do this, or will I break my sound?
[00:59] <icedwater> VCoolio - why would sudo -s work?
[00:59] <Pholious> alright, brb
[00:59] <seidos> what kind of battery life should i expect from a 5200mah battery?
[00:59] <U236Willy> had a laptop go into sleep/hibernate mode last night... now it won't come out of it. I held the powerbutton down to have it shut off completely and now it just starts up and does nothing.
[00:59] <shawn1980> phantomciruit how do i restart in single user mode
[00:59] <bastid_raZor> phantomcircuit: for missing title bars you're having him delete his entire home.. that is an ignorant fix.
[00:59] <icedwater> preet: Ah, but then that was what I was wishing for when I encountered rpm and yum :P
[00:59] <Anacranom> samuli, i have no idea the ins-and-outs of it, i just know i've installed tons to a live session and copied the conf files to the "real" files
[00:59] <samuli> ernz, good :)
[00:59] <bastid_raZor> shawn1980: booting to recovery mode is single user mode
[00:59] <VCoolio> icedwater: as far as I know it enters a root terminal, so next commands are run as root; run exit to go back to normal
[01:00] <shawn1980> whats the command
[01:00] <icedwater> Hm, OK.
[01:00] <Anacranom> samuli, i have no idea the ins-and-outs of it, i just know i've installed tons to a live session and copied the conf files to the "real" files, also Xubuntus
[01:00] <ernz> samuli: Thanks for the help. I like that search command. Will come in handy in the future. Good night.
[01:00] <Xubuntus> Anacranom, icedwater. Why I want to do this is because the Xubuntu does NOT have a good/working AUDIO-config/setup, but this UbuntuLive-environment has a MARVOULESS one!
[01:00] <phantomcircuit> bastid_raZor, i made a point of asking him whether he just installed or not...
[01:00] <icedwater> shawn1980: Just reboot the computer, then select the menu option to go to single mode.
[01:00] <VCoolio> icedwater: not sure yet what the difference is with sudo -i, but I saw sudo -s on help.ubuntu.com somewhere, so I guess it's ok
[01:00] <Evito> where should the xbindkeysrc file be?
[01:00] <samuli> nighty night ernz
[01:00] <icedwater> You may have to press ESC to see the Grub menu at bootup, so.
[01:00] <Ronnie> HI can somebody help me get rid of Pulse Audio its driving me nuts.
[01:01] <VCoolio> Evito: in home, hidden, with a .  dot in front
[01:01] <phantomcircuit> shawn1980, restart and select the option with "Rescue Mode" in it, most likely the second option
[01:01] <shawn1980> ok
[01:01] <icedwater> VCoolio: I'm not sure about sudo in the first place, I just know it works. It borrows the environment variables of root and executes a single command as root, does it not?
[01:01] <Xubuntus> How does the soundrecognition actually work in Ubuntu, compared to Xubuntu?
[01:01] <Evito> the actual home folder or inside the users named folder
[01:01] <shawn1980> thats phantom
[01:01] <tomvolek> HI all, upgraded from ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 and now java inside firefox doesnt work on a 64 bit, is this a common problem ?
[01:01] <Leonard> running the ubuntu 9.10 live cd, logged out to apply some display settings but whats default login credentials to get back in?
[01:01] <Anacranom> Evito, VCoolio hit ctrl+h to see hidden files in gui
[01:01] <samuli> Anacranom, you have to mount the file system on your harddrive to do that I would guess
[01:01] <shawn1980> exit
[01:02] <Evito> tomvolek, got same prob
[01:02] <petteyg> Anybody got suspend/resume working on a laptop with HD3200?
[01:02] <Evito> Anacranom; it didnt put one in there, so im copying the example file there to make it work thats why i ask whcih one
[01:02] <tomvolek> ouch Evito .. I am googling around , but nothign so far
[01:02] <seidos> Xubuntus: i would think that sound recognition would be the same in xubuntu and ubuntu
[01:02] <Anacranom> samuli, just click on it thru gui in computer> /media/xxxx
[01:02] <icedwater> Xubuntus: I have no idea. But I would guess Ubuntu is working better because whatever Xubuntu makes has to come after Ubuntu is released. So they might have a better set of libraries, perhaps.
[01:02] <Leonard> cant log back in at all :(
[01:03] <icedwater> But that isn't always true.
[01:03] <Evito> Not all that worried about it myself, not like java is all that useful :)
[01:03] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, thanks, it's back now, wish i backed up somw files from home though lol, I'll sort the rest out tomorrow and keep a good eye on not losing that bar again :P
[01:03] <phantomcircuit> VCoolio, sudo -i simulates an initial login, which means all new environment variables (except for TERM and DISPLAY)
[01:03] <tomvolek> :)
[01:03] <icedwater> Pholious: which bar is that you were missing?
[01:03] <sdouble> speaking of xubuntu, which is lighter as a fresh default install?  ubuntu or xubuntu?
[01:03] <icedwater> It's supposed to be xubuntu, right?
[01:03] <phantomcircuit> Pholious, it was probably some crazy gtk configuration thing, you probably could have found and fixed it... but it would have taken a loooong time
[01:03] <Xubuntus> seidos: EXACTLY what I thought, and why I also installed Xubuntu.
[01:04] <VCoolio> icedwater: I really don't know much more than that it works and seems ok to use; phantomcircuit thanks; not sure if that's important if I just want to run something with root permissions
[01:04] <icedwater> Just based on the DE alone, which should be more clunky with GNOME than XFCE..
[01:04] <Pholious> icedwater, think they call it a title bar in ubuntu :D
[01:04] <samuli> sdouble, xubuntu would be, but it's not like you need much of a computer to run ubuntu or kubuntu either
[01:04] <Xubuntus> But, No one in the Xubuntu channel knows the difference between Ubuntu and Xubuntu regarding AUDIO.
[01:04] <Pholious> phantomcircuit, aye, been trying to work that baby out for hours the other night, was a tough one :D
[01:04] <randomusr> has anyone recently installed adobe reader? Firefox wants me to run a .bin file instead of installing the addon
[01:04] <icedwater> VCoolio: yeah, I didn't catch the question, but I usually only use sudo. Not many options needed.
[01:04] <Evito> So if i want to create say a button that kills on mouseclick like the forcequit thingie, what line do i add to the keybinds file
[01:04] <icedwater> Pholious: title bar for what, the terminal?
[01:04] <seidos> Xubuntus: are the versions the same for ubuntu and xubuntu?
[01:04] <samuli> it's almost sad only ~300 MB of my ram is in use usually on ubuntu :)
[01:05] <seidos> Xubuntus: for example, are you comparing 9.04 to 9.04?
[01:05] <Pholious> icedwater, quite a lot of apps, like xchat, terminal, video player/totem, VLC
[01:05] <sanubuntu> hey guys, i've used the same 9.10 disk on two different laptops .. the first went off without a hitch .. but on this one (an old toshiba satellite) i don't get a desktop image, even tho i've selected one of the ubuntu studio ones.  what could be the case?  when i go to shut down, the image does appear briefly, but is not rendered in session.
[01:05] <sanubuntu> this problem driving me batty, i trying to get this laptop ready to leave as a gift in costa rica b4 i leave on saturday .. arrrrgggghhhh
[01:05] <Xubuntus> seidos, YES, 9.10 and 9.10. Karmic and Karmic.
[01:05] <Tritonio> hello. i use Karmic and most games from the official repos cannot exit. The still consume CPU even though their windows close and I can't kill their process. I can only stop them by sending them a SEGV signal with kill.
[01:05] <sanubuntu> i just save a photo to the desktop to see if it shows up, it doesn't show up on 'the desktop' area, but it IS in the desktop file  ...
[01:05] <icedwater> Hmm... could it per chance have been a window manager issue? Metacity, perhaps.
[01:05] <Xubuntus> seidos, Working and not working. ?!?!?!
[01:05] <Xubuntus> :)
[01:05] <VCoolio> samuli: now switch to lightweight wm and apps and you'll get even sadder
[01:05] <Xubuntus> + :(
[01:06] <randomusr> nevermind, installing from synaptic
[01:06] <rsc___> hey guys. how would one go about recoloring an SVG iconset (like humanity)? I would use imagemagick if it were PNGs, but they aren't.
[01:06] <OerHeks> sudo apt-get clean Tritonio
[01:06] <seidos> samuli: what desktop environment?
[01:06] <samuli> gnome
[01:06] <samuli> with compiz
[01:06] <Tritonio> OerHeks: ok i will try it now. is it a known error?
[01:07] <seidos> Xubuntus: i think you can install fluxbox on ubuntu, maybe that is the easiest solution
[01:07] <sdouble> yeah, I normally use wmii but am using gnome right because I was having a sound issue.  turned out my sound was muted  =P
[01:07] <Xcell> I average 270-300 megs with it.. thats why i installed 4 gigs
[01:07] <seidos> i'm using 650MB right now, i don't have desktop effects enabled
[01:07] <Xubuntus> seidos, What?
[01:07] <icedwater> I'm not exactly sure what you've described, Pholius, but I've seen windows without title bars before and I was told to use metacity --replace. I know what that does, to some extent, but I haven't been able to figure out why there is such a bug in the first place.
[01:07] <DanaG> rsc___: Isn't svg just some sort of XML-based thingy?  Try opening one with a text editor.
[01:07] <Xcell> wow.. somethings wrong lol
[01:07] <phantomcircuit> im using 2GB right now :P
[01:07] <DanaG> Perhaps you can do a 'sed' or such.
[01:07] <icedwater> rsc___: Yeah, I would have suggested that.
[01:07] <JacobT1> hey room
[01:07] <Xubuntus> seidos, How does Fluxbox help me copy the audio-config?
[01:07] <icedwater> Ah, the wonders of being in an IRC channel.
[01:08] <hikenboot_> what is the irc channel for powerpc version
[01:08] <U236Willy> where does ubuntu 9.10 save to on the disk during a sleep/hibernate?
[01:08] <icedwater> hikenboot_: You can probably just ask your questions here.
[01:08] <phantomcircuit> oh my
[01:08] <icedwater> I'm no expert, but I don't think there are architecture-specific channels :)
[01:08] <phantomcircuit> how does gnome-panel need 80 MiB of resident memory
[01:08] <randomusr> !kiba
[01:08] <samuli> I'm using 335MB with firefox 4 tabs open, transmission on.. 6 programs total + daemons/services
[01:08] <samuli> zero swap
[01:08] <randomusr> !kiba-dock
[01:09] <icedwater> phantomcircuit: Where are you seeing this, in top?
[01:09] <Ronnie> >> Is there anybody on that can give me information on how to remove Pulse Audio from Karmic? :( its driving me mad. i used to use esound on 8.04..
[01:09] <seidos> Xubuntus: I'm making an assumption that flux is what xubuntu uses, so i was recommeding installing ubuntu on the system with xubuntu, then install flux, if you're trying to learn how audio is configured, then that's another story.
[01:10] <MarkDude> !grub2
[01:10] <phantomcircuit> iceberg, seeing what? gnome-panel? uh the gnome system monitor thingie
[01:10] <phantomcircuit> whatever that is
[01:10] <icedwater> seidos: I would have though Xubuntu used XFCE, that's where the name is from.
[01:10] <eae> fwiw, my frozen ubuntu remix install on my laptop is back on track, I needed to reboot a few times.  but seems good now.  btw, it was a joy to select that replace Microsoft Windows option. This is my first linux install.  sure looks like the ubuntu community has done a great job.  I applaud you guys.
[01:10] <icedwater> phantomcircuit: Lol, iceberg :)
[01:10]  * icedwater smiles at iceberg :)
[01:10] <seidos> Xubuntus: i'm under the impression that pulseaudio is necessary for audio to work out of the box.  you can pgrep pulseaudio on the xubuntu system to see if it's even running.
[01:10] <Tritonio> OerHeks: running sudo apt-get clean returned no output and neither is my problem gone. for example kiki-the-robot still doesn't exit (that one doesn't even close its window, other games do but still use CPU and can't get killed.)
[01:10] <seidos> icedwater: thanks
[01:10] <icedwater> eae: why do you say that?
[01:10] <phantomcircuit> icedwater, the about doesnt give it's real name :|
[01:11] <phantomcircuit> uh
[01:11] <phantomcircuit> it's command line is gnome-system-monitor
[01:11] <icedwater> Oh, gnome-system-monitor.
[01:11] <icedwater> OK.
[01:11] <Ronnie> >-<
[01:11] <icedwater> I used to use top until I finally bothered to install conky.
[01:11] <JacobT1> why will my computer not update and stuff if it is not on the domain?
[01:11] <Xubuntus> siedos, It uses XFCE (or XCFE). Really good together with Compiz-Fusion.
[01:11] <icedwater> Check that out, it's fun.
[01:11] <JacobT1> liek i bring my computer hoem from work and it lags logging in and stuff
[01:11] <sanubuntu> can someone please help me with this problem
[01:11] <samuli> phantomcircuit, haha. I have no idea. My gnome-panel uses 8.3 MB
[01:11] <icedwater> Xubuntus: try tab-complete :P
[01:11] <samuli> sorry 6.3 MB
[01:12] <icedwater> samuli: I guess that depends on what you're trying to do with it.
[01:12] <seidos> Xubuntus: i installed xfce on this system, liked it, but there were deal breakers
[01:12] <shalrath> is php5.2.10 in karmic broken?
[01:12] <seidos> i also didn't find it much faster than gnome
[01:13] <icedwater> VCoolio: So apparently sudo -s starts a shell as root. Isn't that like sudo sh ./pathname?
[01:13] <Pholious> what program do you guys prefer for changing window themes in ubuntu?
[01:13] <TheCheeze> does anyone happen to know how to make a wallpaper "theme" in Karmic? I don't know how to work it better or i would google. I mean like how there are some wallpaper options with multiple pictures that it cycles thorugh...
[01:13] <TheCheeze> word it better*
[01:13] <Xubuntus> seidos, What dealbreakers?
[01:13] <mirror_man> Hi. Ubuntu 9.10 does not configure my screen res properly, it only gives 800x600 max and I want 1024x768. My monitor will support higher than this so that's ok. Graphics is intel 82865G. I made an xorg.conf and put the right line in section screen -> subsection display but the screen res is still 800x600 after rebooting. Question: how do I get ubuntu to recognise xorg.conf?
[01:13] <samuli> icedwater, I suppose if you have some memory-hog or even malfunctioning applet on the panel.
[01:13] <VCoolio> icedwater: sure, but the op said that didn't work for him, so I thought let's try a detour
[01:14] <icedwater> Yeah, he did say that it didn't work. I know, I was just trying to figure out the difference.
[01:14] <seidos> Xubuntus: hmmm, need time to recall.  i still have it just in case i need it though
[01:14] <Xcell> wallpaporz i think its called
[01:14] <ohmy> hi
[01:14] <Xcell> paperz
[01:14] <phantomcircuit> samuli, yehah gnome seems to eat memory
[01:15] <phantomcircuit> system has been up for like a few days but that doesnt really seem that extreme
[01:15] <samuli> phantomcircuit, not my experience though, but I've heard people say that
[01:15] <ohmy> my kubuntu 9.10 doesnt detect my ATI graphic card, what's the driver to install to have the best opengl performances (i dont care about compiz and co)
[01:15] <VCoolio> icedwater: maybe he needed sudo "sh ./path"
[01:15] <seidos> Xubuntus: i'm pretty sure colors were an issue.  couldn't get it with the black background, i prefer this color scheme.  also mouse config, my mouse buttons are switched.  oh, more importantly, couldn't organize open apps on the panel
[01:15] <icedwater> gnome-panel is sleeping on 15 MB over here ... but then I'm on Debian Lenny :P
[01:15] <phantomcircuit> sanubuntu, what's the probelm?
[01:15] <Xubuntus> seidos, None of those are problems in my Xubuntu-install.
[01:16] <samuli> I managed to get my panel up from 6.3 to 12 MB by using transparency :P
[01:16] <icedwater> As I was saying, IRC is like a fish market, only people respond to everyone else :P
[01:16] <seidos> Xubuntus: interesting.  i should install in a virtual machine.  maybe after i install zenix in a virtual machine
[01:16] <icedwater> I like the transient sense of connectedness it gives you.
[01:16] <Xubuntus> siedos, Have you got a working flashplayer on youtube - one that you can click HD and then Fullscreen on?
[01:16] <icedwater> Then I go out and talk to my real friends :P
[01:17] <celthunder> ohb66, enable kms if it is enabled for your card
[01:17] <seidos> icedwater: stop gloating :(
[01:17] <icedwater> seidos: I like IRC :P Don't get me wrong.
[01:17] <seidos> if you have a 5200mah battery, what kind of battery life do you get?
[01:17] <kisuke> icedwater: "these are my frends see how they glisten..."
[01:17] <seidos> icedwater: i know what you meant, i am not getting you wrong. ;)
[01:17] <Xubuntus> How do I know what audioconfig my now-running system is using?
[01:17] <icedwater> ;)
[01:18] <erh> a couple days ago all my browsers started displaying some text wierd. see image. top text is normal, bottom is bold. it just stretches instead of boldening.. any ideas? http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/6130/asdfc.jpg
[01:18] <Xcell> seidos-  if you program the batt properly it will do you justice.
[01:18] <bastid_raZor> seidos: probably just over 2 horus
[01:18] <Dam0>  can someone tell me whats wrong with this code for my eggdrop: http://pastebin.com/m171e9217
[01:18] <mgv1> dost anyone knows why flash freezes after video-mic confirmation opens?
[01:18] <seidos> bastid_raZor: ah, that's what i was getting before...*the incident*
[01:18] <seidos> Xcell: ...
[01:18] <damdooom> help
[01:19] <icedwater> Has anyone got experience tweaking keytouch to get their keyboards working fully? (eg Fn-* combinations, etc.)
[01:19] <Xubuntus> When I run "pgrep pulseaudio" (on LiveCD-env) I get "3330". What's that 3330 about?
[01:19] <bastid_raZor> seidos: my battery is 4400 and i get right at 2 hours.
[01:19]  * seidos throws damdooom a life preserver
[01:19] <samuli> does anyone know why audio backends in linux have to suck?
[01:19] <hikenboot_> how do i boot the powerpc version into single user no graphics mode from the boot: prompt
[01:19] <icedwater> Xubuntus: man pgrep :P
[01:19] <phantomcircuit> Dam0, now im prettttty sure this is the wrong channel for that
[01:19] <seidos> Xubuntus: that means pulseaudio is running and its pid is 3330
[01:19] <Dam0> phantomcircuit,  this is the only channel i get a responce in
[01:20] <icedwater> Well, you might not get the kind of response you like. Maybe apt-get install patience?
[01:20] <mirror_man> !xorg.conf
[01:20] <icedwater> Oops, that was mean :P
[01:20] <phantomcircuit> Dam0, oh hey look http://www.eggheads.org/support/
[01:20]  * icedwater ruffles Dam0's hair.
[01:20] <redDEAD> hey everyone, why cant i right click when suing compiz in ubuntu 9.10
[01:20] <samuli> 9.10 still uses those init-scripts?
[01:21] <bastid_raZor> samuli: yes and no..
[01:21] <mgv1> there is anyway for ubuntu to join voice chats?????????????????????
[01:21] <bastid_raZor> !upstart | samuli
[01:21] <Xubuntus> seidos, Is pulseaudio included in ALSA?
[01:21] <seidos> Xubuntus: i know on my system, which uses snd_hda_intel "driver" i need the snd_hda_intel module and pulseaudio for it to work
[01:21] <phantomcircuit> Dam0, amazingly you are on the only major network without an official eggdrop channel
[01:21] <phantomcircuit> impressive
[01:21] <samuli> bastid_raZor, nice to know those old commands still work, though
[01:21] <kisuke> !compile > kisuke
[01:21] <phantomcircuit> mgv1, voice chats?
[01:21] <Xubuntus> seidos, Is pulseaudio kind'a included in ALSA?
[01:21] <seidos> Xubuntus: i think ALSA and pulseaudio are separate.  pulseaudio is *like* a proxy
[01:22] <redDEADresolve> hey everyone, why cant i right click in ubuntu 9.10 using compiz as my window manager?
[01:22] <kisuke> pulseaudio like to break things randomly
[01:22] <mgv1> voice chats with few peopls together phantomcircuit
[01:22] <linuxguy2009> Hi guys I just got the matching DVD+/-RW for my Dell Mini 10v netbook. Ubuntu 9.10 NRE thinks that I have a floppy and cdrom whener I unplug the drive. When I plug it in, they disapear and the DVDRW is mounted. Should I just ignore that?
[01:22] <samuli> bastid_raZor, do you reckon there's faster boots available if they would just forget about those scripts and have upstart the way it's meant to be?
[01:22] <Halitech> mgv1, you mean like msn or yahoo or skype?
[01:22] <phantomcircuit> mgv1, so you mean like what software would allow you do have a conference call?
[01:22] <Xubuntus> Does anyone know HOW TO COPY AUDIO-CONFIG FROM UBUNTU TO UBUNTU?
[01:23] <seidos> hmmm, he brings up a good point.  what process is running for alsa?
[01:23] <redDEADresolve> linuxguy2009, what is NRE
[01:23] <icedwater> Xubuntus: CAPITAL LETTERS DON'T HELP
[01:23] <bastid_raZor> samuli: i've heard the slow boots are attritubed to fsck checking drives on boot
[01:23] <Snausages> can anyone point out a good full system backup utility for ubuntu?
[01:23] <Xubuntus> You saw it? :)
[01:23] <rsc___> what sort of audio config?
[01:23] <witeshark> anyone working on the java security update?
[01:23] <Xubuntus> I know the reason.
[01:23] <mgv1> Halitech, phantomcircuit - i want to join existing chat
[01:23] <icedwater> Xubuntus: my guess is it's not a single file or directory... you would probably have to set up some package?
[01:23] <astechgeek> i setup a software raid5 array is there a way to get it to mount on boot?
[01:23] <Halitech> mgv1, existing chat on what protocal?
[01:24] <seidos> Xubuntus: this how to might help you out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[01:24] <Xubuntus> rsc___, the one thats working/is on right now.
[01:24] <ohmy> Any one can tell me how to get a descent OpenGL driver for my ATI ardeon X300 on kubuntu 9.10 please !
[01:24] <icedwater> I'm not too familiar with Xubuntu, though. It should use the same repos as Ubuntu does, doesn't it?
[01:24] <mgv1> Halitech, doesnt matter
[01:24] <bastid_raZor> samuli: obviously this isn't confirmed but a friend of mine set in fstab to not check his partitions and boots times improved.
[01:24] <Halitech> mgv1, well if it is an existing chat then yes it does matter
[01:24] <samuli> bastid_raZor, I doubt anyone can say 9.10 is a slow booter with out something like that happening in the background. What I meant is if the boot time would be even faster if they abandoned the old and just used upstart without init scripts
[01:24] <mirror_man> Hi. Ubuntu 9.10 does not configure my screen res properly, it only gives 800x600 max and I want 1024x768. My monitor will support higher than this so that's ok. Graphics is intel 82865G. I made an xorg.conf and put the right line in section screen -> subsection display but the screen res is still 800x600 after rebooting. Question: how do I get ubuntu to recognise xorg.conf?
[01:24] <icedwater> ohmy: Patience, someone will answer your question at some point. :) We're all here because we have a problem of some sort :)
[01:24] <seidos> what's the command to reset pulseaudio?
[01:25] <phantomcircuit> mgv1, uh so you want to take two independent voice chats and combine them without ever hanging up? i dont know of any system that is designed to do that for windows or linux
[01:25] <john`> anyone know a program to use gmail chat client through terminal?
[01:25] <mgv1> there arent chats to join on skype Halitech
[01:25] <john`> text base one like naim
[01:25] <john`> but can use gmail chat
[01:25] <crohakon> Is there a faster place to download the newest edition of ubuntu as the official link is downloading at  12kbs
[01:25] <Halitech> mgv1, there are if you have friends on there
[01:25] <ohmy> icedwater, right, sorry .. i've just recovered my PC after a crash and i'm tired ... hopefully i'll get some help tomorrow :/
[01:25] <bastid_raZor> samuli: ah, i see. upstart has has been in 8.10 and 9.04 just not fully used. now the big switch to upstart used over init.d is in place.
[01:25] <icedwater> ohmy: Have you tried searching for drivers on google? :)
[01:25] <Anacranom> Xubuntus, tell rsc___ that you are on live cd trying to copy current audio config to the actual installed partition because this one works
[01:25] <icedwater> ohmy: I know, it can be frustrating sometimes.
[01:25] <TheCheeze> does anyone happen to know how to make a wallpaper "theme" in Karmic? I don't know how to describe it better or i would google. I mean like how there are some wallpaper options with multiple pictures that it cycles thorugh...
[01:25] <bastid_raZor> crohakon: use the torrents.
[01:25] <icedwater> IRC is like that, we just have to wait.
[01:26] <phantomcircuit> crohakon, bittorrent
[01:26] <crohakon> how? where is the link?
[01:26] <john`> icedwater: do you know one?
[01:26] <crohakon> I did not see a torrent link on the website
[01:26] <phantomcircuit> it's on the normal download page somewhere
[01:26] <randomusr> is kiba dock no longer available?
[01:26] <bastid_raZor> crohakon:  http://releases.ubuntu.com/   on this page
[01:26] <linuxguy2009> redDEADresolve: sorry NRE-netbook remix edition
[01:26] <icedwater> TheCheeze: no one answered your question, eh. Are you using KDE?
[01:26] <mgv1> phantomcircuit, helitech - look - some websites allow flash chat with audio but flash doesnt works good with linux - so what ive left with?
[01:26] <icedwater> john`: Let me scroll back ... do I know one what?
[01:27] <TheCheeze> icedwater, gnome
[01:27] <redDEADresolve> linuxguy2009, thats what i thought
[01:27] <Xubuntus> siedos, been there...
[01:27] <mgv1> phantomcircuit, helitech - probably no options
[01:27] <john`> icedwater: a text base gmail chat client
[01:27] <Xcell> TheCheeze-   this?    http://wallpapoz.akbarhome.com/
[01:27] <phantomcircuit> mgv1, uh you're talking about a conference call
[01:27] <rsc___> Xubuntus 9.10 still uses pulseaudio yeah? you can check ~/.pulse and /etc/pulse
[01:27] <john`> icedwater: does it exist one in terminal?
[01:27] <icedwater> mgv1: Try adding the medibuntu repositories, then getting flash from there, that's usually pretty good.
[01:27] <Halitech> mgv1, flash works fine for me but you need to explain exactly what you want to do
[01:27] <mgv1> phantomcircuit, yes
[01:27] <phantomcircuit> crohakon, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt
[01:27] <rsc___> Xubuntus but then again it may be more than your pulseaudio config making your audio work
[01:27] <icedwater> john`: Not offhand, no. Have you tried apt-cache search?
[01:27] <phantomcircuit> crohakon, if you're going to upgrade make sure to get the alternative install cd
[01:28] <icedwater> TheCheeze: I suspected that might be it, because KDE offers that option pretty easily.
[01:28] <phantomcircuit> mgv1, skype
[01:28] <Xubuntus> rsc___, I'm on live cd trying to copy current audio config to the actual installed partition because this one works.
[01:28] <crohakon> ahh, there is the 800kbs I was looking for
[01:28] <Xubuntus> :)
[01:28] <lgc> Hi. How can I just download the distro upgrade without installing it?
[01:28] <john`> icedwater: i haven't but i did try google, but with no luck =(
[01:28] <rsc___> Xubuntus: you can check ~/.pulse and /etc/pulse
[01:28] <Halitech> lgc, download the alternative install cd
[01:28] <JacobT1> can anyone plz help me
[01:28] <icedwater> TheCheeze: I think you might want to work on a script to rotate wallpapers ... try searching for that :)
[01:28] <rsc___> Xubuntus: is your live cd the same version of ubuntu as your installed version?
[01:28] <phantomcircuit> Jack21, restate question
[01:28] <TheCheeze> icedwater, i know in windows i could just put the ones i wanted into a folder and rotate through that way, but i dont see even an option like that
[01:29] <ha1331> how does one change to generic desktop on ubuntu netbook remix?
[01:29] <phantomcircuit> JacobT1, restate question
[01:29] <icedwater> Yeah, TheCheeze ... that is Windows.
[01:29] <lgc> Halitech, I'm looking for something along the lines of "apt-get dist-upgrade -whatever"
[01:29] <mgv1> phantomcircuit, what? there arnt chats like that in skype on linux- what is medibuntu?
[01:29] <mrXX> i cant load ubuntu, it boots up in a GRUB mode, how can i recover? I had made some changes in the alsa-base.conf file before restarting,  plzzz help me, i miss ubuntu
[01:29] <icedwater> I'm pretty sure the option exists, but I have never needed it, so I didn't look it up.
[01:29] <ha1331> I mean How do I get rid of that moron mode that is enabled by default
[01:29] <JacobT1> that when im not connectd to the domain when i try to update the system it will lock up
[01:29] <Halitech> lgc, not sure if there is an option for that or not
[01:29] <arand> !medibuntu | mgv1
[01:29] <JacobT1> when im not ont he domain and do anythign w/ log on information it takes forever for it to work
[01:29] <icedwater> mgv1: I use skype on linux, incidentally. Medibuntu is ... there we go :P
[01:30]  * icedwater smiles at ubottu.
[01:30] <icedwater> ha1331: What moron mode?
[01:30] <sumeetbali> hey
[01:30] <Xubuntus> rsc___, Yes, same version. Both are Karmic, 9.10.
[01:30] <mrXX> ubottu dude, i messed up with ubuntu, i modified the alsa-base.conf file a little(for my mic to work) and after i restart all i have is a grub screen and i dont know what to do,   did I lose Ubuntu?
[01:30] <rsc___> icedwater: he means the default menu thing of the netbook remix
[01:31] <mgv1> skype on linux doesnt has chats to join to?
[01:31] <icedwater> It's not perfect, I must say - Skype's interface disappears when I start a video call..
[01:31] <phantomcircuit> JacobT1, im sorry can you please restate your problem in a complete sentence
[01:31] <ha1331> icedwater: every window opens full screen, there is no desktop just netbookish looking main window where one can choose what to do etc.
[01:31] <mgv1> without the mark
[01:31] <phantomcircuit> JacobT1, im still not even sure what you're trying to ask
[01:31] <lgc> Halitech, there is one, indeed. I just don't remember it right now. That's why I ask.
[01:31] <john`> hmm
[01:31] <ha1331> icedwater: 9.10 nbr
[01:31] <Xubuntus> rsc___, Also, it seems like the cd uses pulse. And the Xubuntu has got a "/etc/pulse".
[01:31] <mrXX> guys plz help me recover my ubuntu, it boots up only in grub mode
[01:31] <Halitech> mgv1, no, you can only call someone on your friend list
[01:31] <icedwater> Hmm... mgv1: sorry, I can't say much about that there. I don't use Skype on windows much any more.
[01:31] <Halitech> lgc, ok, I've never used it .... have you tried the man pages for apt or google?
[01:32] <JacobT1> like the automatic system updates if there is one it will not install it unless i am connected to the domain
[01:32] <rsc___> Xubuntus: see if there are any significant differences between the /etc/pulse of both installations. I'd also check /home/username/.pulse :>
[01:32] <mrXX> Xubuntt dude, i messed up with ubuntu, i modified the alsa-base.conf file a little(for my mic to work) and after i restart all i have is a grub screen and i dont know what to do,   did I lose Ubuntu?
[01:32] <icedwater> mrXX: What does it tell you after it goes past the grub screen?
[01:32] <lgc> Halitech, when all else fails...read the manual!
[01:32] <mrXX> ubottu dude, i messed up with Xubuntu modified the alsa-base.conf file a little(for my mic to work) and after i restart all i have is a grub screen and i dont know what to do,   did I lose Ubuntu?
[01:32] <Halitech> lgc, best I can suggest at the moment
[01:32] <freaky[t]> hi all. how do i switch between X11 cursor themes?
[01:32] <icedwater> mrXX: You edited the alsa-base.conf file a little?
[01:32] <lgc> Halitech, thanks, anyway.
[01:33] <rsc___> Xubuntus: I wouldn't blindly copy over those though (from the live cd to the installation), although there's no harm if you back up whatever you'll replace. your lack of audio may be a problem with your kernel modules or something unrelated to pulse
[01:33] <samuli> freaky[t], from system/prefefences/appearance
[01:33] <leaf-sheep> freaky[t]: Appearances, I believe. Select a theme that you're using and customize it.
[01:33] <mrXX> icedwater yes, i changed a line in it, then restarted to check the mic,
[01:33] <freaky[t]> ah ok thank you :d
[01:33] <mrXX> icedwater but then it beets up in grub mode
[01:33] <icedwater> rsc___: I agree with you on that. Make a backup, then see what happens when you copy stuff over.
[01:33] <rai> what is the last support date of jaunty or do i get support always?
[01:33] <mrXX> icedwater dude i dont want to lose my files in there and the configuration
[01:33] <Halitech> !eol
[01:33] <DanaG> oh, and don't copy modules from one version to run on another.
[01:33] <icedwater> And do you see any error messages? And what exactly do you mean by grub mode?
[01:34] <DanaG> It won't work.
[01:34] <DanaG> Try linux-backports-modules-alsa
[01:34] <icedwater> mrXX: Don't worry, you'll be fine. Your stuff is still there.
[01:34] <osmosis> im not able to get it to boot all the way. It gets to the selection screen where I can say Try it now , or Install, or memtest.  But when I select Install or try it now, it just locks up.
[01:34] <Halitech> osmosis, what video card and system specs?
[01:34] <samuli> rai, it's always 18 months for regular releaseas and 3 years for LTS releases desktop
[01:34] <mrXX> icedwater it has the terminal screen with only this -    sh:Grub
[01:34] <Anacranom> icedwater, rsc___ Xubuntus Always back up any .conf or other file before editing it! ;-)
[01:35] <sanubuntu> hey guys, i've used the same 9.10 disk on two different laptops .. the first went off without a hitch .. but on this one (an old toshiba satellite) i don't get a desktop image, even tho i've selected one of the ubuntu studio ones.  what could be the case?  when i go to shut down, the image does appear briefly, but is not rendered in session.
[01:35] <mrXX> icedwater looks like there are some commands that go along with grub but i m a newbie :-(
[01:35] <osmosis> Halitech, MSI Wind,  Intel 945GME
[01:35] <phantomcircuit> sanubuntu, check the disc for errors
[01:35] <rai> that means i wont get security and other updates after 18months? samuli
[01:35] <mrXX> icedwater dude can i recover?
[01:35] <osmosis> Halitech, help appreciated. Im stuck.
[01:36] <Halitech> osmosis, which version are you trying?
[01:36] <osmosis> Halitech, 9.10 netbook remix
[01:36] <billybigrigger> anyone find anything wrong with the dagger release of MW2?
[01:36] <mrXX> icedwater is there a way to access the alsabase file from windows7? i can try changing that line again
[01:36] <sanubuntu> phantomcircuit, i used the disk for another installation and no similar problem
[01:36] <samuli> rai, not for normal releases. If you're not keen on upgrading much wait for the next (10.04) release that will be LTS :)
[01:36] <AaronM> is there anyway to downgrade from 9.10 to 9.04 and keep your files?
[01:36] <Halitech> osmosis, ok, I know 9.04 had issues with intel cards, not sure on 9.10 and never tried the netbook remix
[01:36] <mrXX> guys, my ubuntu doesn't boot up, it only boots up in the grub mode, how can i recover it?
[01:37] <Xubuntus> rsc___, There are some differences between the files in the directories.
[01:37] <phantomcircuit> sanubuntu, that does not necessarily mean the disc is clean just that the files accessed during the install of the first machine did not require dirty files
[01:37] <Halitech> AaronM, format and reinstall, do you have a seperate /home partition?
[01:37] <phantomcircuit> sanubuntu, just run the check it cant hurt
[01:37] <leaf-sheep> AaronM: Offically, no. Unoffically (and lame hacks). Probably.
[01:37] <icedwater> I am not familiar with Windows 7, mrXX, but I would expect not to be able to read the ext3 partitions Ubuntu makes from Windows 7.
[01:37] <samuli> mrXX, by grub mode do you mean the command line?
[01:37] <Anacranom> AaronM, if you put /home on a separate partition then yes
[01:37] <rai> when will that be released? 10.04 samuli
[01:37] <mrXX> samuli yes
[01:37] <AaronM> ugg
[01:37] <rsc___> Xubuntus: have a look at it, see if there are any significant changes that may be the source of the problem and hack away. make sure to back up.
[01:37] <samuli> rai, about 6 months from now
[01:37] <phantomcircuit> you can install 9.10 over 9.04 without losing /home
[01:37] <mrXX> samuli but it is not like the ubuntu terminal with good commands, it is strange i have no idea
[01:37] <phantomcircuit> so im assuming you can do 9.04 over 9.10
[01:37] <icedwater> mrXX: So it gets you to root@hostname #: something like this?
[01:37] <phantomcircuit> but no guarantees
[01:38] <icedwater> Hmm... do you notice any error messages, mrXX?
[01:38] <mrXX> icedwater no, it is just sh:grub
[01:38] <rai> thanks samuli
[01:38] <leaf-sheep> AaronM: Lot of people have issues in upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10, perhaps the issue you're facing is relevant.
[01:38] <Halitech> phantomcircuit, I think it would have to format at least the / partition
[01:38] <Anacranom> AaronM, just put your /home on a separate partition
[01:38] <mrXX> icedwater maybe it cant load the kernel, that is what i feel, but i dont know the soln
[01:38] <Xubuntus> Anacronom, icedwater, rsc___; I had audio working on Xubuntu yesterday (25 hours ago :) ) but after reboot... byebye audio.  :(
[01:38] <icedwater> mrXX: I am not sure if you have a problem with GRUB2. I'm not too familiar with the new version, to be honest.
[01:39] <phantomcircuit> Halitech, no you dont if you do a manual partitioning
[01:39] <AaronM> i'd rather deal with the problems than go through all the trouble
[01:39] <phantomcircuit> Halitech, i did it for my 9.04->9.10 upgrade
[01:39] <mrXX> icedwater is there a way i can recover from cd? i tried but couldnt do anything
[01:39] <Guest82417> hello all. I have a question regarding installing Ubuntu on my PC.
[01:39] <icedwater> I am still trying to sort out some stuff with my disk partition table so I can install Karmic on a spare partition and play around with it.
[01:39] <Halitech> phantomcircuit, thats assuming a seperate /home partition
[01:39] <icedwater> mrXX: Do you have a live CD you could use?
[01:39] <mrXX> icedwater yes, it is 9.04 version though
[01:39] <samuli> mrXX, the best way to go about it would probably be first trying to reinstall/update grub
[01:40] <Xubuntus> icedwater, mrXX; Theres a HUGE advantage to go to the #grub channel. They are very helpful!
[01:40] <sanubuntu> phantomcircuit: is there a way for me to examine the installed system to get right to where the problem is?
[01:40] <osmosis> Halitech, I found a thread on the forums that says it will boot off of USB, but once the linux kernel is loaded, it loses the usb ports.
[01:40] <icedwater> Boot into that, mrXX - then in the 9.04 system, open a terminal.
[01:40] <Xubuntus> Okay. Time to hit the bed. Nice chatting and helping. Thx, so far!  Good nigth!
[01:40] <Xubuntus> *night
[01:40] <Xubuntus> ;)
[01:40] <Guest82417> okay, I have three hard drives in my PC
[01:40] <phantomcircuit> Halitech, no that is not
[01:41] <genezoz> Hey all I dont want to be "that guy" but is there a better place than this to ask 9.10 support questions?
[01:41] <icedwater> mrXX: once you're in the terminal, you can mount the hard disk partition where you have the modified alsa-base file...
[01:41] <mrXX> icedwater then what dude
[01:41] <Guest82417> I would like to install Ubuntu completely on an empty hard drive.
[01:41] <Halitech> phantomcircuit, explain
[01:41] <mrXX> icedwater but i dont see the contents
[01:41] <Guest82417> if I do, will my computer still ask me which OS to boot?
[01:41] <icedwater> genezoz: I would expect not - 9.10 is pretty new, so issues are coming in hard and fast. This is probably as good a place as any.
[01:41] <mrXX> icedwater it is as if i saw the partition from windows
[01:41] <samuli> genezoz, ubuntuforums perhaps? :)
[01:42] <Bruc> hey ubuntu its great aint it..
[01:42] <Anacranom> AaronM, heres a guide to put /home on a separate partition after install,, worth knowing, better to at install ;-)  http://www.wood-bee-co.com/woodbeeco/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=35&Itemid=9
[01:42] <icedwater> mrXX: Have you booted from the liveCD yet? You should try that, boot into 9.04 first.
[01:42] <phantomcircuit> Halitech, my entire filesystem (except the NTFS windows mount) is on /dev/sda5. I specified manual partitioning when installing.  I did not specify any new formatting, I merely flagged /dev/sda5 as the partition to install on.  The installer then went about removing system directories but did NOT remove the home directory.
[01:42] <samuli> Bruc, can't beat it for the money or otherwise
[01:42] <Guest82417> if anyone could help, it would be appreciated.
[01:42] <Guest82417> I'm eager to
[01:42] <mrXX> icedwater ok , i m puting the cd now
[01:42] <Guest82417> install ubuntu
[01:42] <Bruc> yes fix windows istall ubuntu
[01:43] <Jetsetlemming1> Hey, I'm trying to get media hotkeys working in VLC. They're detected and assigned in the keyboard shortcut options, but the buttons don't do anything in VLC, even while they can still interact with the os itself, for example the mute button. Help?
[01:43] <icedwater> Guest82417: is that your only hard drive?
[01:43] <Jetsetlemming1> Using a Microsoft Wired 600 keyboard if that matters
[01:43] <Halitech> phantomcircuit, I'll take your word on that but you'll excuse me if I don't risk blowing my system up by trying it
[01:43] <Anacranom> Bruc, very tru, but i also fix windows WITH ubuntu ;-)
[01:43] <genezoz> I feel like I've searched everything and done everything. I'm having that black screen bug on boot with the -14-generic kernel. I guess it has to do with xorg. I've tried everything I've seen but I haven't been able to get past that black screen. Im using an ATI x800 pro. Which hasn't had any issues in ubuntu until this kernel. Im using a live CD atm.
[01:44] <Bruc> hehe
[01:44] <icedwater> Jetsetlemming1: I can't help you there, but I'd love to know if you get a solution. I'm on Debian and I'm trying to figure out how to get my special Fn-combinations to work.
[01:44] <Guest82417> Icedwater: no I have three, and I want to install it on one.
[01:44] <phantomcircuit> Halitech, you're downgrading to 9.04 correct? i wouldnt guarantee that would work, i know that upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10 it did
[01:44] <icedwater> I see. And they're all connected at the same time, I suppose, Guest82417?
[01:44] <phantomcircuit> but the installer for 9.04 is different
[01:44] <Jetsetlemming1> Googling it suggests other people have ran into it, but I can't find a solution yet, either. I'm super new to this whole linux thing, so I'm not likely to come up with one myself
[01:44] <Halitech> icedwater, did you try keytouch? worked for me on my MS Natural keyboard
[01:45] <icedwater> (Also, please change your name, I'm sure you're more creative than that.)
[01:45] <iceberg> 03:21 #ubuntu: < syn-ack> iceberg, that is false.
[01:45] <iceberg> 15:24 #ubuntu: < phantomcircuit> iceberg, seeing what? gnome-panel? uh the gnome system monitor thingie
[01:45] <Halitech> phantomcircuit, I'm not doing anything
[01:45] <iceberg> pardon?
[01:45] <PhantomLink> be back shortly...going to run a quick errand with my mom :D
[01:45] <Guest82417> Icedwater: yes. Two of them have Windows files and one is empty. that's the one I want to install on.
[01:45] <syn-ack> iceberg, what are you talking about?
[01:45] <icedwater> Halitech: somewhere in the flood of questions I posted mine earlier, here it is again: I've got an issue with keytouch, namely, I don't know how to find out what model my keyboard is.
[01:46] <icedwater> iceberg: I think some people may have been lazy when tab-completing.
[01:46] <smwn> hey
[01:46] <iceberg> syn-ack, what were you talking about? heh.
[01:46] <icedwater> There's quite a few of us with ice* here :D
[01:46] <iceberg> icedwater, must have been.
[01:46] <smwn> i want to use ubuntu but can't cuz it doesnt like my usb wifi adaptor
[01:46] <smwn> any ideas
[01:46] <Prodego> icedwater: you are making me thirsty
[01:46] <smwn> i have 9.04
[01:46] <Jetsetlemming1> Also, while I'm asking button questions, is there a way to make the middle mouse button behave in Ubuntu/Firefox like it does in windows and make a scroll icon over your mouse so you can scroll with mouse gestures?
[01:46] <Halitech> icedwater, nothing on the bottom of the keyboard? (I know, too obvious but have to ask)
[01:46] <phantomcircuit> Halitech, oh i wonder who it was that was downgrading
[01:46] <smwn> not sure if 9.10 will be better with it
[01:46] <phantomcircuit> Halitech, oh well
[01:47] <samuli> smwn, usb-wifi... that spells trouble, hehe.
[01:47] <Halitech> phantomcircuit, AaronM I believe
[01:47] <kostkon> icedwater, check in  /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see how X is recognising it
[01:47] <icedwater> Guest82417: so ... yes, if you install Ubuntu on the one hard disk which is empty... and all of them are connected, you should have the option to set up the Grub bootloader.
[01:47] <phantomcircuit> iceberg, xchat compeltes to you even though i typed ice and it should have displayed a list of options, not sure why
[01:47] <phantomcircuit> icedwater, is it a usb keyboard?
[01:47] <smwn> yes it does
[01:47] <Anacranom> smwn, try the 9.10 live cd,, if works there, or shows in the restricted drivers, then ther ya go
[01:47] <AaronM> phantomcircuit i was planning to downgrade if it was simple
[01:47] <smwn> true
[01:48] <icedwater> Guest82417: This will allow you to choose which operating system you want at boot time.
[01:48] <smwn> well i don't want to buy windows 7
[01:48] <icedwater> kostkon: Thanks, looking at it now.
[01:48] <smwn> cuz i want to feed my kids
[01:48] <samuli> lol
[01:48] <icedwater> phantomcircuit: Halitech: nopes ... bit hard to look on the bottom if the keyboard is part of the laptop :P
[01:48] <phantomcircuit> AaronM, i believe that you can install 9.04 over 9.10 without deleting /home, i know you can install 9.10 without deleting /home, and im guessing the installers are similar, but im not sure
[01:48] <Halitech> icedwater, oh, you didn't mention that (at least I didn't see it)
[01:48] <Guest82417> Icedwater: is Grub bootloader automatically installed or must I install it?
[01:48] <icedwater> But I will look on the bottom nonetheless, and in Xorg.conf too :D
[01:48] <phantomcircuit> icedwater, what laptop
[01:49] <icedwater> Halitech: I didn't get to mention it in the midst of replying to others :D
[01:49] <hedkandi> has anyone got time to explain about the debian rules file?
[01:49] <icedwater> Guest82417: It should be automatically set up if you use the typical live CDs
[01:49] <icedwater> phantomcircuit: LG E310.
[01:49] <hedkandi> 'cos I don't understand it, esp the build target
[01:49] <icedwater> Not even sure how to go about googling for part numbers there.
[01:49] <gyso>  /motd
[01:49] <cafree> How can I do a clean install of Gnome?  My system is all out of whack and I've been unable to find any solution.
[01:50] <Guest82417> Icedwater: so if I use the Ubuntu live CD that I burned, it will work?
[01:50] <hedkandi> cafree, can't you just reinstall the gnome-desktop package in synaptics?
[01:50] <icedwater> kostkon: I think I've seen that before... it's uhm... one sec
[01:50] <samuli> cafree, not sure but would apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop do the trick?
[01:50] <kostkon> icedwater, otherwise, /var/log/dmesg should say something
[01:50] <hedkandi> samuli that's what I said
[01:51] <kostkon> icedwater, e.g.:  tail /var/log/dmesg | grep keyboard
[01:51] <phantomcircuit> god damn it
[01:51] <phantomcircuit> cacert is run by idiots
[01:51] <cafree> hedkandim samuli: I can give that a try
[01:51] <icedwater> Guest97552: Pikachu isn't all THAT bad :P
[01:51] <cafree> what's the diff between gnome and ubuntu desktop?
[01:51] <phantomcircuit> i send them a request to delete an account and they delete a wholly unrelated account
[01:51] <sumeetbali> xman
[01:51] <phantomcircuit> i didnt even mention the other account
[01:51] <Anacranom> !ohmy | phantom
[01:51] <sumeetbali> ?
[01:51] <eae> fresh ubuntu install - on an old Dell Latitude laptop. . . my video looks fine for applications, but it has fractured lines on the regular desktop
[01:51] <Anacranom> !ohmy | phantomcircuit
[01:51] <Guest97552> Icedwater: my stupid IRC client is screwing me up.
[01:52] <icedwater> phantomcircuit: Well, they did delete an account.
[01:52] <icedwater> Anacranom: once is enough, maybe?
[01:52] <icedwater> Anacranom: once is enough, maybe?
[01:52]  * icedwater winks
[01:52] <samuli> cafree, ubuntu-desktop is just meta package for most things gnome and a little bit of ubuntu spesific stuff you have on fresh ubuntu install
[01:52] <ryan8403> hi can't seem to get os-prober to see my windows partition any suggestions?
[01:52] <icedwater> Pikachu_: Hh, which client is that?
[01:52] <phantomcircuit> icedwater, im still trying to figure out how they even knew the account they deleted was mine in the first place
[01:52] <Anacranom> lol, yeah, goofy kbd's but ..
[01:52] <zetheroo> The Ubuntu 9.10 survey is now available ... any takers?
[01:52] <pukeko> thunderbird & imap:  i have folders downloaded for off-line use , i want to "upload" the off-line files to another account on a differnt  imap server, can this be done ?   ---   i only have admin on one of the imaps ( the one i want to upload to )
[01:52] <Pikachu_> Icedwater: irchon, for iPhone/iPod touch
[01:52] <icedwater> phantomcircuit: Some other registration details?
[01:53] <icedwater> Pikachu_: nice :)
[01:53] <Pikachu_> Icedwater: so using the live cd I burned will
[01:53] <Pikachu_> install grub?
[01:53] <samuli> it will
[01:53] <ixian_> hi
[01:53] <samuli> if you install the OS that is, obviously
[01:53] <icedwater> Pikachu_: it is part of the typical Ubuntu installation. :)
[01:54] <phantomcircuit> icedwater, one has by real name the other is my handle
[01:54] <Pikachu_> all right. thank you all, especially Icedwater.
[01:54] <phantomcircuit> they managed to delete the account for my real name, there are zero mentions of my real name on the account for my handle
[01:54] <sumeetbali> can i bring up old chatlogs in x-chat?
[01:54] <icedwater> kostkon: It goes by "xorg" "pc105" "us" in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:54] <icedwater> Pikachu_: Well, take care and check back now and then :)
[01:54] <kostkon> icedwater, any mention of the model in dmesg?
[01:55] <dragon> how do I configure what service runs at n runlevel?
[01:55] <dragon> I'm aware of the presence of /etc/rc.d script hooks, but I'm looking for a tool.
[01:55] <icedwater> I'm trying to solve my issues and get to try Karmic other than on the USB stick :)
[01:55] <icedwater> dragon: The name escapes me at the moment, but there is probably a GUI option in System/Administration.
[01:55] <icedwater> Maybe services, or session, or some such.
[01:55] <Pici> !runlevels | dragon
[01:56] <dragon> icedwater: command line preferred
[01:56] <mirror_man> Hi. Ubuntu 9.10 does not configure my screen res properly, it only gives 800x600 max and I want 1024x768. My monitor will support higher than this so that's ok. Graphics is intel 82865G. I made an xorg.conf and put the right line in section screen -> subsection display but the screen res is still 800x600 after rebooting. Question: how do I get ubuntu to recognise xorg.conf?
[01:56] <icedwater> phantomcircuit: Big Brother is watching you?
[01:56] <icedwater> dragon: Ah.
[01:56] <Anacranom> icedwater, what issues you having? i could not install via USB stick, is that t?
[01:56] <dragon> !upstart
[01:56] <icedwater> Same preference as I have, but I'm not too familiar with command line.
[01:56] <Take0n> how do I get the environment I am running (like gnome, kde etc.) and the version?
[01:56] <dragon> ...
[01:57] <icedwater> dragon: I mean, for runlevel stuff.
[01:57] <icedwater> dragon: I know about the k99 s00 and whatnot, those are the script hooks you're referring to, right?
[01:57] <sp4z> anyone got tor running in 9.10 yet?
[01:57] <dragon> icedwater: i think so, yes
[01:57] <icedwater> Anacranom: nope, installer doesn't see my partitions properly and offers to wipe my hard disk. :)
[01:58] <icedwater> Anacranom: Live USB is the only way I've seen Karmic so far, is what I meant.
[01:58] <icedwater> s/seen/got to see/
[01:59] <zetheroo> One observation I have from Ubuntu 9.10 is that it seems very CPU hungry ...
[01:59] <icedwater> kostkon: Also, grep -v keyboard /var/log/dmesg returns nothing.
[02:00] <kostkon> icedwater, :(
[02:00] <icedwater> Oh wait. I need to sudo make them a sandwich.
[02:00] <icedwater> Well, it's the same crap I saw before.
[02:00] <icedwater> Apologies.
[02:00] <wolf23> somebody help please!
[02:00] <icedwater> kostkon: [    0.692103] input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input1
[02:01] <icedwater> wolf23: How so?
[02:01] <fireball> hi all. I upgraded other pc to 9.10 and gdm has failed on reboot, please advise
[02:01] <kostkon> icedwater, hmm, not much info :(
[02:01] <Anacranom> icedwater, ahh,,, mine would load live but when i went to install, it lost the id of the usb,,, and failed,, had to slave a cdrom drive to my HP Mini (no ODD) to install from cd...
[02:01] <icedwater> Yeah.
[02:01] <crackpot> is it possible to update ubuntu 32-bit to the 64-bit version without reformatting/reinstalling?
[02:01] <Halitech> crackpot, no
[02:01] <crackpot> thought so
[02:01] <icedwater> Anacranom: I think there are a few issues that need to be sorted out on Ubuntu's end, anyway.
[02:01] <crackpot> is it possible to install ubuntu x64 over top of 32-bit w/o reformatting?
[02:01] <dragon> crackpot: you don't have to reformat, but you have to reinstall. Isn't too hard, though.
[02:01] <wolf23> icedwater:  thanx dude, i want to know how to open a .jar file on terminal?
[02:02] <crackpot> yeah figured
[02:02] <Halitech> crackpot, well, should say officially no, unofficially ...
[02:02] <Take0n> so anyone?
[02:02] <crackpot> yeah
[02:02] <Take0n> how do I get the environment I am running (like gnome, kde etc.) and the version?
[02:02] <crackpot> i know the accepted method is to always reformat for a reinstall
[02:02] <Anacranom> icedwater, agreed
[02:02] <sp4z> take0n, system>about gnome
[02:02] <dragon> Take0n: Click on System > About GNOME
[02:02] <crackpot> does anyone else have any issues with firefox not saving username/passwords for websites?
[02:02] <dragon> :)
[02:02] <icedwater> wolf23: .jar archives are just disguised .tar.gz or something.
[02:02] <fireball> I upgraded other pc to 9.10 and gdm has failed on reboot, please advise
[02:02] <Take0n> sp4z, I want a command :)
[02:02] <crackpot> like i can't click the "Remember" button that drops down
[02:02] <Take0n> what if I don't run gnome?
[02:03] <icedwater> If you have the right libraries, you should be able to get it open, wolf23.
[02:03] <icedwater> fireball: What was the fail messag?
[02:03] <homoboy> anyone know why every time i try to burn any kind of video dvd i get error? or "inable to burn with current set of plugins?"
[02:03] <dragon> crackpot: if you're willing, try chromium from the repositories.
[02:03] <sp4z> take0n; system>about kde
[02:03] <icedwater> s/ag/age/
[02:03] <crackpot> chromium?
[02:03] <fireball> not sure there was one
[02:03] <fireball> i'll double check right now
[02:03] <Take0n> sp4z, I want a command to retrieve that information
[02:03] <Take0n> is it possible?
[02:03] <Digitalcheffe> can anyone help me change the owner of a file ive been at it for  an hour now and the can't figure out the damn command
[02:03] <crackpot> oh google chrome, yeah i just installed that, but i would prefer to use firefox
[02:04] <sanubuntu> i have no desktop (image)
[02:04] <sanubuntu> when i shut down, the image flashes on briefly, and disappears
[02:04] <icedwater> Digitalcheffe: change owner? ch(ange) own(er), therefore chown.
[02:04] <icedwater> chown --help :)
[02:04] <sp4z> take0n; maybe. did you google for it?
[02:04] <Halitech> Digitalcheffe, sudo chown
[02:04] <sanubuntu> if i save something to 'desktop' i can access it through the filesystem, but it does not appear on the desktop
[02:04] <dragon> Take0n, sp4z: ps -ef |grep gnome
[02:04] <Digitalcheffe> sorry of a file ive been using chmod
[02:04] <icedwater> kostkon: Well ... so no other ideas at the moment? :)
[02:04] <dragon> if you don't see much output, you're not running gnome, and maybe kde in that case.
[02:04] <Digitalcheffe> sorry i ment folder
[02:05] <icedwater> Same thing, try it, Digitalcheffe :)
[02:05] <anthonym2121> !user
[02:05] <homoboy> anyone know why every time i try to burn any kind of video dvd i get error? or "inable to burn with current set of plugins"? I have medibuntu libdvdcss2 installed so it does not make sense to me
[02:05] <samuli> Digitalcheffe, chmod changes permissions, chown changes owners
[02:05] <Take0n> dragon, is there a way to have that in a more general way? If the user doesn't run gnome it would return null or not at all.. I tried google but I don't know exactly what to look for I tried terminal environment or desktop but not much there..
[02:05] <Halitech> Digitalcheffe, sudo chown -R username:username /path/to/folder
[02:06] <kostkon> icedwater, eh, you could try lshw or lshw-gtk (gui version). it's a nice tool to have anyway.
[02:06] <O__o> hi, i just upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10, may I ask whats different?
[02:07] <Halitech> O__o, 2 numbers
[02:07] <dragon> Take0n: so your question is: Is there a command line method to find a user's desktop environment?
[02:07] <kostkon> icedwater, http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/lshw-gtk
[02:07] <icedwater> O__o: May I suggest you explore? :P There should be a changelog somewhere on Ubuntu's website, too :P
[02:07] <O__o> during the install process, it said something about the rpm not in used???
[02:07] <icedwater> Thanks, kostkon, though I'm on Debian at the moment. Package should be called the same thing, though.
[02:07] <Halitech> O__o, rpm is redhats package manager
[02:07] <losha> homoboy: ok, let's start at the beginning. What files are you trying to burn?
[02:07] <Digitalcheffe> wow apprently it did like being inside the /home/user/ folder to do it
[02:07] <Digitalcheffe> thanks
[02:07] <phoenix_> I am looking for help with removing UNR and getting Compiz to work properly again, can any1 help?
[02:07] <kostkon> icedwater, yeah
[02:07] <dragon> Take0n: try asking this question in ##linux
[02:08] <icedwater> O__o: Being a Debian derivative, .debs are in favour, though .rpms can be supported, too.
[02:08] <Take0n> thanks :)
[02:08] <samuli> is irc.ubuntu the new default for linux stuff?
[02:08] <icedwater> Hmm... O__o: missing implicit subject above: Ubuntu being a Debian derivative... :P
[02:08] <Prime_> so my laptop crashed in the middle of updating  and i when i rebooted it gives me this error can someone help me?
[02:09] <O__o> is there something new that is not there in 9.04?
[02:09] <genezoz> didnt get any responses before so trying again!
[02:09] <Halitech> Prime_, whats the error?
[02:09] <astechgeek> how can you set a raid array to mount on boot when it's not the swap, /boot, or /
[02:09] <Prime_> mountall:symbol lookup error:mountall:undefinedsymbol:udevmonitorfilteraddmarchsubsystemdevtmpeinit:mountall main process (719) terminated with status 127
[02:09] <homoboy> losha, i am trying to burn 2 .ogv files, both movies. at first i thought that maybe it was the format so i changed that to .avi with ffmpeg. did not work. I have used k3b, 2mandvd, devede, brasero, pretty much everything.
[02:09] <genezoz> im having the black screen at boot with 9.10. Im using ati x800
[02:09] <samuli> O__o, a lot check the change log
[02:09] <genezoz> ive tried literally everything
[02:09] <O__o> where is change log?
[02:10] <losha> homoboy: and you're trying to burn a dvd which will play in a regular dvd player?
[02:10] <wolf23> anyone please help! how should i run a file .jar from terminal?
[02:10] <dragon> how can I purge a package that has already been uninstalled?
[02:10] <icedwater> O__o: not too sure, but it should exist on the Ubuntu website. :)
[02:10] <homoboy> losha, yes.
[02:10] <Halitech> genezoz, did you try installing any drivers from the ati website?
[02:10] <kostkon> wolf23, java -jar someprogram.jar
[02:10] <icedwater> To clarify, guys, wolf23 tried java -jar filename.jar and it didn't work ...
[02:10] <homoboy> losha, i also used nero linux
[02:10] <Boom> Hello All. Am trying linux Kubuntu for the first time. Can someone please suggest a good winamp like player? thanks
[02:10] <icedwater> Ah, you beat me to it, kostkon :P
[02:10] <kostkon> icedwater, ;)
[02:11] <icedwater> wolf23: Why don't you tell them the error message?
[02:11] <wolf23> kostkon: yes i got this --> Unable to access jarfile AlMuathen.jar
[02:11] <sumeetbali> does anyone remember me i was talking to someone on how to chnage my desktop wallpaper automatically and now i dont remember who i was talking to ? i am lost!
[02:11] <kostkon> wolf23, ah, ok
[02:11] <samuli> 0__0. try a google search for "what's new in ubuntu 9.10" or similar
[02:11]  * DanaG ponders switching to Lucid repos.
[02:11] <bgd73> anyone running a rage128GL?
[02:11] <O__o> winamp?
[02:11] <genezoz> Halitech: I haven't. I read that the ATI drivers were worthless. And their recent catalyst pack doesnt support x800.
[02:11] <icedwater> Incidentally, kostkon, I'm installing lshw now. Hope that helps.
[02:11] <losha> homoboy: ok, first, there's only one file format you can use for dvd video, and that's mpeg2. You're going to have to convert your ogg files to mpeg2 vob files. Devede is the best tool of the ones you've mentioned for doing that.
[02:11] <nicle> Boom: audacious
[02:11] <O__o> that is so 10 yrs ago
[02:11] <Halitech> genezoz, ok, just wanted to make sure you hadn't
[02:11] <kostkon> icedwater, i hope so
[02:11] <catamarquence> i need to configure gamma of my monitor, but i dont have a xorg.conf file... how can i correct this?
[02:11] <AntiStrange> I have two different audio outputs. Rear and front. Is there a way that I can mute one and not the other?
[02:12] <Boom> nicle: Thankyou : )
[02:12] <Boom> will look it up
[02:12] <icedwater> sumeetbali: Not sure, you're not the only one I think - unless you /nicked :P
[02:12] <Halitech> genezoz, not that I agree the ati drivers are worthless, I'm using them with my hd4350 and they work fine for me
[02:13] <wolf23> kostkon:  do u know why?
[02:13] <crackpot> so un/reinstalling firefox doesn't fix it
[02:13] <Halitech> genezoz, can you boot into safe mode from the live cd?
 i cant remember their ID
[02:13] <homoboy> losha, i have tried vob as well, ffmpeg -i filename.ogg filename.vob, should i do .mpeg2 instead??
[02:13] <samuli> what do you think is the best music player on linux btw?
[02:13] <crackpot> it worked pre-9.10 but since the upgrade it wont let me click "Remember" when firefox asks to save the password to sites
[02:13] <crackpot> i like rythmbox
[02:13] <leftyfb> anyone know what happened to the gnome-terminal's fonts? It seems to be using monospace 10, but it certainly doesn't look like it used to on 8.04, 8.10 or  9.04. It just doesn't look right even though it looks like it's the same settings
[02:13] <kostkon> wolf23, no. is  AlMuathen.jar the name of the jar file you are trying to run?
[02:14] <samuli> I've tried a couple.. amarok, exail, rhythmbox, banshee
[02:14] <genezoz> Halitech: Im using the Live CD now.
[02:14] <wolf23> kostkon:  yes
[02:14] <kostkon> wolf23, hmm ok
[02:14] <Halitech> genezoz, ok and its working fine there?
[02:14] <losha> homoboy: first, I would see if devede will process ogg files itself. Have you tried that?
[02:14] <crackpot> any suggestions as to why firefox won't let me save user/pass for websites?
[02:14] <kisuke> n00bish question; and best channel i can find to ask in, what do i need to compile visual boy advance?
[02:14] <crackpot> (and no i'm not in "private browsing" mode
[02:14] <homoboy> samuli, i say banshee, though some argue rythmbox
[02:14] <genezoz> Halitech: Flash is garbage, but otherwise yes.
[02:14] <kostkon> wolf23, maybe a problem with the file's permissions?
[02:14] <rocky|raccoon> kisuke: apt-get build-dep should give you all the building dependencies for it
[02:14] <crackpot> try to compile it, and see what it says
[02:15] <samuli> homoboy, have you tried anything outside of the repositories?
[02:15] <samuli> banshee is my current favourite also
[02:15] <O__o> best music player is rymthmbox
[02:15] <homoboy> losha, yes i have, but still cannot get that to burn straight to the dvd.
[02:15] <wolf23> kostkon:  so what can i do?
[02:15] <kostkon> wolf23, the possibility that you don't have the perm to run it
[02:15] <Halitech> genezoz, so you install and reboot and thats when you get the black screen? is it showing any drivers in use in Hardware drivers?
[02:15] <O__o> rhythmbox
[02:15] <djbpython> I am having trouble with permissions, I am trying to make a link in nautilus but the option is greyed out
[02:16] <losha> homoboy: Wann revisit the process together and see if it goes better this time?
[02:16] <crackpot> it seems like my cookies are messed up in firefox as well.
[02:16] <djbpython> I have chmod 777 and chown
[02:16] <Halitech> djbpython, is the location you are trying to make the link in outside your home folder?
[02:16] <sun`> im getting "Kernel panic, not syncing (Unable to mount root fs)" error after selecting Ubuntu from the boot manager.
[02:16] <samuli> has any of you tried jukebox-gtk?
[02:16] <djbpython> Halitech, yes
[02:16] <samuli> it looks promising
[02:16] <genezoz> Halitech: No drivers in use. Once I install (doesnt matter if its an update or a clean install) It boots up for the first time and black screen. Can't alt-f3/7 either.
[02:16] <thehungus> trying to set my locale to es_US.UTF-8, system wide. editing /etc/default/locale to contain LANG=... worked fine on my laptop, but on this box the root account is in es_US, as are user accounts but under X user accounts are in en_US still... which is somewhat odd. if I ssh into the box as any user the locale is as expected; es_US. gdm, login screen and so on is also in the desired locale
[02:16] <kostkon> wolf23, er give somethike like: chmod +x yourfile.jar
[02:16] <homoboy> samuli, not really. I have tried armarock, vlc, banshee, rythmbox, etc. and i say rythmbox has the best features.
[02:16] <Halitech> djbpython, then you need to use gksudo nautilus
[02:16] <sun`> im getting "Kernel panic, not syncing (Unable to mount root fs)" error after selecting Ubuntu from the boot manager.
[02:16] <kisuke> rocky|raccoon:
[02:16] <phoenix_> I am looking for help with removing UNR and getting Compiz to work properly again, can any1 help?
[02:17] <kostkon> wolf23, or try to change the perms graphically. right click on the file and then properties and then permissions
[02:17] <Halitech> genezoz, strange ...
[02:17] <genezoz> Halitech: Well...I can't confirm no drivers are in use. How would I check that? I can't get a command prompt unless im in netroot.
[02:17] <djbpython> Halitech, even if I own the folder and its permissions are wide open?
[02:17] <icedwater> kostkon: No luck, the only lines with keyboard in them are referring to which interrupt the keyboard takes :P
[02:17] <homoboy> losha, what exaxtly do you mean
[02:17] <crackpot> no one has any suggestions?
[02:17] <kostkon> icedwater, :(
[02:17] <kisuke> rocky|raccoon: i have it installed from the repos its just missing a menu.. so im going for the source
[02:17] <Halitech> genezoz, I was wondering about in the live session
[02:17] <genezoz> Halitech: Checking
[02:17] <losha> homoboy: I mean lets step through it together & see if we can get it to work...
[02:17] <Halitech> djbpython, are you sure the permissions are set that way?
[02:18] <homoboy> losha, i c. sure, if you have the time lol
[02:18] <genezoz> Halitech: No proprietary drivers are in use
[02:18] <AntiStrange> I have two different audio outputs. Rear and front. Is there a way that I can mute one and not the other?
[02:18] <icedwater> kostkon: Thanks, but I'll come back and ask again :)
[02:18] <djbpython> drwxrwxrwx
[02:18] <Halitech> genezoz, ok so shouldn't be loading anything at boot either
[02:18] <icedwater> 3.15am, whee.
[02:18] <cristim> hello, say I'm trying to build a package for intrepid, and post it to my PPA. is it enough to set in the latest changelog entry intrepid instead of karmic?
[02:18] <rocky|raccoon> kisuke: right...well apt-get build-dep packagename grabs the "development" packages for each of packagename's dependencies for example, so if you wanted to get all of the compile dependencies for visualboyadvance you could do it that way
[02:18] <kostkon> icedwater, ok :)
[02:18] <thehungus> anyone? what might change the locale variables post login to X?'
[02:18] <losha> homoboy: won't take long. I won't stay for the processing. Ok. let's start. Bring up devede and select video dvd
[02:18] <djbpython> Halitech, drwxrwxrwx
[02:19]  * kisuke facepalms
[02:19] <mb_again_> !locale
[02:19] <homoboy> losha, ok.
[02:19] <icedwater> !keyboard
[02:19] <crackpot> okay how can i completely remove any traces of firefox?
[02:19] <losha> homoboy: select properties under Titles and give it whatever title you want
[02:19] <icedwater> Ciao folks :)
[02:19] <genezoz> Halitech: -13-generic works. -14-generic does not Is there a way to install 9.10 and roll back the kernel?
[02:19] <freaky[t]> is there any desktop search utility for ubuntu (gnome)?
[02:20] <Shwack> yeah but it doesnt fucken work
[02:20] <ugarit> how does one add ubuntu cloud computing for 9.10 desktop?
[02:20] <xangua> a lot freaky[t]
[02:20] <Shwack> it only finds the file names of the folder you're in - ...pretty useless
[02:20] <Halitech> genezoz, I would hazard a guess that you can but I'm not sure how
[02:20] <freaky[t]> xangua, which one is the best (or, the default one)?
[02:20] <homoboy> losha, done.
[02:20] <freaky[t]> xangua, and where do i configure it?
[02:20] <freaky[t]> !desktopsearch
[02:21] <djbpython> why do i not understand permissions, if the folder is rwxrwxrwx I should be able to paste things in to it right?
[02:21] <xangua> there is the deskbar applet that comes already installed freaky[t] , is easy to use
[02:21] <freaky[t]> xangua, yea but usually some daemon scans for files etc.?
[02:21] <genezoz> Halitech: I haven't been able to find that...I tried apt-cache search kernel-image in netroot, but it doesnt pull anything up. I assume because Im already using -14-generic
[02:21] <xangua> it uses beagle i think
[02:21] <losha> homoboy: now go to files panel, select add, and choose one of the ogg files. Further down, tick ntsc or pal
[02:21] <epinky> djbpython: i don't understand anything
[02:22] <ugarit> how does one add ubuntu cloud computing for 9.10 desktop?
[02:22] <samuli> ugarit, if you already have already signed up in launchpad/ubuntu forums you just launch the ubuntu one application and fill in your details
[02:22] <samuli> then add the computer on the netpage
[02:22] <Halitech> genezoz, could be, I'm not a kernel expert so not sure
[02:22] <mb_again_> djbpython: if that is truly the permission, then permission is not the issue. make sure you are looking at a real folder, the right folder etc
[02:22] <qjqqyy> a
[02:23] <genezoz> Halitech: Thanks anyway. =)
[02:23] <djbpython> mb_again_, I don't understand, the "real" folder, I'm looking at it right here
[02:23] <agus> help me, how to install ubuntu from usb drive
[02:23] <homoboy> losha, ok.
[02:23] <phoenix_> I am looking for help with removing UNR and getting Compiz to work properly again, can any1 help? My windows are maximizing on open
[02:23] <mb_again_> djbpython: symlinks show those permissions as well
[02:23] <bobbbb> hey there! anybody familiar with sound issues? i had my sound working for months and now i selected "always on top" in vlc video playback options. everything crashed, i had trouble gettin back into linux and now theres no sound at all. alsamixer and asoundconf-gtk are configured... can you help? thanks
[02:23] <losha> homoboy: now repeat for the second ogg file
[02:24] <Shwack> i have question.. I use the search feature in ubuntu and it only finds the files I search for in the EXACT folder.    Lets say I have a folder called Misc on my desktop - if I were to run a search in Desktop it wouldn't search taht folder..it would only search desktop -waht's the deal with that?
[02:24] <BoriTori> what does the outputs of command "time" mean ?
[02:24] <BoriTori> real    0m0.413s user    0m0.392s sys     0m0.052s
[02:24] <BoriTori> what do those 3 things mean
[02:24] <homoboy> losha, ok.
[02:24] <xangua> agus: there is an utility for create a usb in ubuntu
[02:24] <BoriTori> is "real" how long it took ?
[02:24] <qjqqyy> bobbbb: i also had sound issues, now ALSA OSS and pulseaudio all does not work, i use a ALC888 card
[02:24] <mb_again_> djbpython: can you put anything in the folder another way? maybe try a terminal window and 'touch testfile'
[02:24] <epinky> agus: unetbootin ?
[02:24] <samuli> shwack, are you sure you have "search for files in subfolders" or similar checked?
[02:24] <Anacranom> anyone here know the dd command? i just tried  dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/var/ftp/FF4SS.iso  and its been quite a while, no errors but also no info...?
[02:25] <losha> homoboy: so now back on the main window, you should see a bunch of stuff under 'file info' and the 'disk usage' bar should show some percentage. Media size should be 4.7GB dvd
[02:25] <djbpython> mb_again_, yes in the terminal I am able to touch a file in the directory
[02:25] <agus> I have succeeded boot but when detect and mount cdrom step I got problem
[02:25] <bobbbb> aw, ok. i just chose the correct "alsa device name" and now its perfecty working. thanks anyway..
[02:25] <homoboy> losha, it is, and usage is at 130% for some reason.
[02:25] <rocky|raccoon> there's a lot of issues with intel hda-based onboard chipsets...i've had to set a lot of programs output to oss to get them to work with pulseaudio well =<
[02:25] <phoenix_> I am looking for help with removing UNR and getting Compiz to work properly again, can any1 help?
[02:25] <djbpython> I am missing something fundamental about permissions
[02:25] <disappearedng_> Hey anyone having trouble copying in vim (using "+y) in the new 9.10?
[02:26] <Shwack> samuli: i checked for an option to search subfolders and I dont see any. To get to this search I add the search plugin via right clicking a panel and going to "Add to Panel"  I add the little magnifying glass search tool.  It is this tool that is faulty.  If I run a search in an actual window the search works as intended.
[02:26] <losha> Anacranom: no messages usually means it went ok.
[02:26] <eee> HALLO ICH HABE KACKE AN DER MUSCHI
[02:26] <epinky> !de | eee
[02:26] <smwn> does anyone here use a dwa 160 usb wifi thing with ubuntu
[02:26] <AntiStrange> how do I get the pulseaudio tray icon to display on the panel? I remember having it in an earlier installation of Ubuntu I had, but now I can't seem to find it.
[02:27] <Anacranom> losha, yes, but its still working,,, no ~$ prompt,,,
[02:27] <zetheroo> Want to view the first Ubuntu 9.10 Survey results? ... http://techiesrus.wordpress.com/ubuntu-9-10-survey-results/
[02:27] <losha> homoboy: I think that means it can't compress the files to fit. Go back into files->properties and adjust the video rate down by about 30%
[02:27] <kostkon> AntiStrange, do you mean the pulseaudio device chooser utility?
[02:27] <mb_again_> djppython: i take it you are using some gui tool to paste into the folder. Can you remove the testfile you just created with the gui? can you paste anything into another folers? if so, who is the owner of the gui created file?
[02:27] <losha> Anacranom: well it takes a while to copy 4.7GB
[02:27] <AntiStrange> kostkon: perhaps, how do I access it?
[02:27] <Shwack> samuli:  Update, I removed and added the search utility and its working ?
[02:27] <kostkon> AntiStrange, do you mean the icon that displays a mini jack?
[02:27] <evilaim> hopefully this will work
[02:27] <phoenix_> I am looking for help with getting Compiz to work properly again, can any1 help?
[02:27] <Shwack> samuli: i'm very confused
[02:28] <AntiStrange> kostkon: yes, i think that was the one
[02:28] <samuli> Shwack, I just tried, it works for me "out-of-the-box" like that too
[02:28] <homoboy> losha, i just pressed adjust disc usage and it went down to 99%, so whats the next step?
[02:28] <kindofabuzz> is there no GDM tool anymore to change the GDM?
[02:28] <losha> Anacranom: open a second terminal and make sure the iso file is getting larger. Also, is the light on the dvd blinking?
[02:28] <disappearedng_> how do I copy from different windows in vim? "+y doesn't work after 9.10 can someone confirm with me?
[02:28] <Anacranom> losha, yes, but 2+ hours? i could have watched the movie by now lol
[02:28] <kostkon> AntiStrange, thes, just install the "pulseaudio device chooser" package using synaptic
[02:28] <Shwack> samuli: I think it is a specific file it wont find
[02:29] <losha> homoboy: under "Action", select 'Create Disk Structure'
[02:29] <Shwack> samuli: give me a moment please to test searching for various files
[02:29] <AntiStrange> kostkon: ok thanks
[02:29] <Halitech> Anacranom, depends on your system, my old P4 used to take 8 hours, my new system takes an hour
[02:29] <Anacranom> losha, the led on the dvd is solid-on, will do the other 2nd tab/term now...
[02:29] <homoboy> losha, done.
[02:29] <geirha> disappearedng_: Why not just use gvim?
[02:29] <losha> homoboy: now press forward and choose a directory with at least 5GB free for the files devede is going to create
[02:30] <Pikachu> once again, just to make sure
[02:30] <homoboy> losha, ok. it is creating.
[02:30] <losha> Anacranom: it may be stuck trying to read a bad sector on the disk. Is it a video
[02:30] <Anacranom> losha, yes, a dvd
[02:30] <G226> Hey everyone, hope your night is going good
[02:31] <samuli> Shwack, the search stuff probably uses that indexing thingy that I can't remember what it was and as such doesn't update in real-time.
[02:31] <losha> homoboy: ok, open a new terminal and go look at the directory you told devede to put the results in. You should see intermediate files being created there.
[02:31] <samuli> that's how it manages to be so fast
[02:31] <Guest91015> Grub bootloader is installed with Ubuntu, correct? I want to make sure before I hit install.
[02:31] <homoboy> losha, it is.
[02:32] <Anacranom> losha, i just restarted it, i'm worried that i dont have enough space in my /tmp which is why i asked how to flush that first...
[02:32] <kindofabuzz> is there no GDM tool anymore to change the GDM?
[02:32] <snoopy> nice
[02:32] <geirha> Guest91015: Yes, unless you specifically tells it not to
[02:32] <KnifeySpooney> Guest91015: Yes, it should be installed unless you marked NOT to install a bootloader in the advanced options.
[02:32] <kindofabuzz> !gdm
[02:32] <G226> Question: I'm trying to play a wmv file, I've gotten gstream, vlc, and tried installing win32codecs via "sudo aptitude install w32codecs" but the video still doesn't play, only audio players? When opened with vlc it says "VLC does not support the video format WVP2"
[02:32] <Guest91015> all right thanks.
[02:32] <snoopy> how do you connect to a port through ubuntu?
[02:32] <samuli> Guest91015, yes it is, grub2 to be spesific
[02:33] <Anacranom> snoopy, elaborate
[02:33] <KnifeySpooney> Does anybody have any good tips for speeding up boot time? My bootchart log doesn't look so good and there's a fairly large empty space: http://i37.tinypic.com/v5dchz.png
[02:33] <nitrus^1> is it possible to get the build config options used on a package?
[02:33] <snoopy> well like, connect to a port... you know?
[02:34] <losha> homoboy: after a while (could take hours) you will end up with 2 directories, AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS. These are suitable for burning to a blank dvd using k3b. You must select 'video dvd' when k3b asks you what kind of dvd to burn. ok?
[02:34] <Shwack> samuli:  I can search for files and folders fine and it works. However, when I search for the file murmur.ini   it does nto work.  i can locate this file on my own and I know for a fact it exists.  - On that subject.  Can anybody tell me which file in which exact directory I need to edit to change the port my mumble-server listens on? I edit mumble-server.ini and change the port but apparently the server isn't reading this file when it starts because the ch
[02:34] <Shwack> ange does nothing.
[02:34] <KnifeySpooney> !imagebin
[02:34] <kisuke> snoopy: ip.address:port
[02:34] <homoboy> losha, thanks alot, guess i just did not know how to use devede very well.
[02:34] <Anacranom> losha, yes, the dir that i am dd'ing that to is getting smaller space available via df -h every 1-2 minutes
[02:34] <Halitech> losha, homoboy mine creates an actual iso file
[02:35] <rocky|raccoon> ...interesting?
[02:35] <astechgeek> that was funny
[02:35] <Shwack> what was that about
[02:36] <kisuke> ...
[02:36] <losha> Halitech: homoboy: we chose to create 'disk structure'. If we had chosen 'create an iso' it would make us an iso. I did it this way so homoboy can look at the files that will comprise his dvd
[02:36] <James_N> right
[02:36] <rocky|raccoon> Shwack: probably another crazy person that got lost on the library computers at the mental, there's a lot of them
[02:36] <|DarkMasterHalo|> He was basically saying that americans are racist ... :P
[02:36] <astechgeek> and that 70% of the prison population more than likely deserve to be in prison
[02:36] <G226> Is there any way to play WVP2 wmv files?
[02:37] <homoboy> losha,which way is faster?
[02:37] <Morphias> does anyone know what Intel Drivers ubuntu 9.10 uses?
[02:37] <Halitech> losha, ok, missed that step you gave him
[02:37] <qjqqyy> hi all just to tell u ppl that the OSS sound driver for xine works for my ALC888
[02:37] <Halitech> homoboy, doing the directories will be slightly faster as it won't create the iso
[02:37] <kisuke> G226: go into synaptic and search WVP2
[02:38] <Shwack> So does anybody know which file to edit to change the port mumble-server listens on?
[02:38] <homoboy> halitech, well i gtg. thanks guys. especially you, losha!
[02:38] <losha> homoboy: not much in it. Conversion is what takes up all the time. iso or 'disk structure' are basically just two different ways of storing the files on disk.
[02:38] <Anacranom> losha, ahhh finally- dd: reading `/dev/sr0': Input/output error
[02:39] <G226> kisuke: trying that now thanks
[02:39] <indiantonic> .net
[02:39] <sigmab3ta> hey guys, just did an upgrade to karmic, and i picked the default option of having it use my old grub menu.lst (dual booting windows) but unfortunately that means now I only have kernel 2.6.28 to boot from. can i have grub set itself up to use the newer kernels installed?
[02:40] <G226> kisuke: nothing came up for that search
[02:40] <losha> Anacranom: that's why it took so long, trying to re-read sectors before it gave up. Try cleaning the disk first with windex. After that, use vobcopy or dvdbackup, as they are a bit more forgiving of disk errors.
[02:41] <crazy2k> Does someone know how to make items appear sequentially in OO.o Presentation?
[02:41] <thehungus> ok, still having locale issues. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf did not help. have looked at numerous ubuntu specific locale "howto" pages without any success. problem again; locale is set correctly but under X the en_US locale persists for user accounts. on virtual terminals or on ssh the locale is set to es_ES as expected
[02:41] <woodyjlw> ok well I take back a few of the bad stuff I said about 9.04..... it works a lot better with all the updates that are out now
[02:41] <thehungus> seems something post gdm is messing overriding the LC_* variables :(
[02:42] <kisuke> G226: gonna google it one min
[02:43] <G226> kisuke: Thanks, I tried googling it too but didn't really come up with much except install win32 codecs which I tried from that aptitude command, but perhaps thats the wrong way :<
[02:44] <kisuke> G226: np i have put the fear of Kendrick into google it will find what i want
[02:44]  * kisuke laughs creepily
[02:44] <geirha> sigmab3ta: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub/+bug/470490
[02:44] <randomusr> wow, I just upgraded to 9.10 and the system is much cleaner, and the sound works
[02:44] <randomusr> friggen sweet
[02:45] <sigmab3ta> geirha: thanks
[02:45] <woodyjlw> question. I dont want to install compiz or any other program to manage my themes but I notice that on the appearance there is also an option for install so where do I download more themes that can be installed under appearance in ubuntu?
[02:45] <kostkon> randomusr, nice
[02:45] <G226> kisuke: D: I hope so :P I've even tried installing mplayer and such that some searches suggested doing :<
[02:45] <randomusr> kostkon, upgrade actually fixed made my sound better
[02:45] <user1_> Can we get RSS feed of nature magazine somewhere from ubuntu
[02:45] <fireball> thanks all, sorted for now i think?
[02:46] <kisuke> G226: FAIL use VLC "sudo apt-get vlc"
[02:46] <Anacranom> woodyjlw, compiz is enabled by default, so it is unless you disable it
[02:46] <kostkon> randomusr, yeah, newer alsa and pulse
[02:46] <kisuke> G226: sudo apt-get install vlc
[02:46] <randomusr> omg
[02:46] <kostkon> randomusr, you just saw the new sound prefs? :P
[02:46] <randomusr> my Proprietary nvidia driver didn't cause problems with x
[02:46] <G226> kisuke: vlc is already installed and it spits out the cannot play WVP2 error
[02:46] <nicle> woodyjlw: go to http://gnome-look.org/
[02:46] <ZykoticK9> woodyjlw, for all your gnome themeing needs http://www.gnome-look.org/
[02:46] <kostkon> randomusr, ah
[02:46] <randomusr> I LOVE UBUNTU
[02:47] <woodyjlw> cool ok

[02:48] <Azriel666> hy all
[02:48] <kisuke> G226: wait i missed a step one min
[02:49] <G226> kisuke: too late :P
[02:49] <kisuke> nedd a repo
[02:49] <kisuke> G226: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[02:49] <Azriel666> guys is here some gm-s from ingame?
[02:49] <G226> kisuke: It seems to have installed, I might have already added the repo
[02:50] <kisuke> G226: does it work
[02:50] <G226> kisuke: Okay, I just did that, it still spits out the WVP2 playback error, even after installing w32codecs + medibuntu
[02:51]  * kisuke swears in a maner that must be bleeped out in an r-rated movie
[02:51] <G226> :P
[02:52] <G226> Yeh I know kisuke, its why I came here for help because im at a loss
[02:53] <KnifeySpooney> Does anybody have any good tips for speeding up boot time? My bootchart log doesn't look so good and there's a fairly large empty space: http://imagebin.org/index.php?mode=image&id=71270

[02:54] <xtiger> hi
[02:54] <smwn>  does anyone here use a dwa 160 usb wifi thing with ubuntu
[02:54] <xtiger> quick question: how can the data on an unpartitioned drive be viewed?
[02:55] <nicle> KnifeySpooney: 1. apt-get install rcconf, which can disable the useless services 2. go to system->preferences->startup appliaction, disable teh useless services on gnome startup
[02:55] <hanasaki> anyone using Privoxy?   curious.. opinions on how good it is and alternatives?  how can it be setup to allow irc over http?
[02:55] <G226> kisuke: I was looking at this too http://ubuntu-ky.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1253642 , theres an example file thats encoded the same as mine in that post that im trying to play
[02:56] <Billiard> xtiger: you want to recover a lost partition?
[02:56] <G226> kisuke: in this format "Windows Media Video 9.1 Image V2"
[02:56] <Shwack> Dedicated SErver vs VPS
[02:56] <KnifeySpooney> nicle: Thanks, forgot to do that when I upgraded. Sounds like a plan, thanks
[02:56] <xtiger> Billiard: no, I just want to view the data on it
[02:56] <Billiard> xtiger: how was the data written?
[02:57] <krezel> Does anybody else have issues creating Ad-Hoc networks with Network Manger in 9.10? The "Create" button is always greyed out for me
[02:57] <zizizo> my box crashes everytime i try to install java, and when i run dpkg --configure -a it crashes again, is there a way to remove it in this state?
[02:57] <xtiger> Billiard: it used to be a windows partition
[02:57] <zizizo> 8.10 server
[02:57] <Billiard> xtiger: so you want to recover the partition then
[02:57] <Arsin> What Ubuntu version would be ideal for a computer with a P3 1GHz 256SDRAM
[02:58] <xtiger> Billiard: no, I just want to view the Data. E.g., if I could mount the drive, and pipe the device to xxd
[02:58] <Nebel> mmm...
[02:58] <Xcell> debian  or xubuntu
[02:58] <wolf23> can anyone tell me how to run a .jar file?
[02:58] <klem_> wolf23, java -jar  file.jar
[02:58] <klem_> i think
[02:58] <Arsin> Xcell: Was that intended for me?
[02:58] <xtiger> Billiard: it has no partitions on it, so "fdisk -l" doesn't show a device
[02:58] <Xcell> ya
[02:59] <klem_> wolf23, yeah, like that
[02:59] <Billiard> xtiger: well, if you used to have partition and you know exactly where it was, you could recreate the partition in the same place, dont format it, and it should be working again
[02:59] <Arsin> Xcell: 9.10 is fine?
[02:59] <Xcell> ive put debian on 800mhz with 256 and it works
[02:59] <Xcell> prolly not
[02:59] <xtiger> Billiard: it has since been unpartitioned
[02:59] <wolf23> klem_:  Unable to access jarfile AlMuathen.jar
[02:59] <kisuke> G226:  try installing w64codecs and *buntu-restricted-extras
[02:59] <Billiard> xtiger: ?
[02:59] <Nebel> I think it would be too "heavy" for that kind of machine Arsin
[02:59] <johnjohn101> my vpnc is broken from network manager worked before
[03:00] <klem_> wolf23, is that the name of the jar file?
[03:00] <wolf23> klem_:  yes
[03:00] <xtiger> Billiard: is it possible to view the raw data (in hex) without creating a new partition? I just basically want to a do a data dump
[03:00] <G226> kisuke: I'm running on 32bit, where is buntu restricted extras? apt-get install *buntu-restricted-extras" ?
[03:00] <Billiard> xtiger: of just the partition?
[03:00] <xtiger> Billiard: of the entire drive
[03:01] <wolf23> klem_:  yes it opens now
[03:01] <xtiger> Billiard: at one point, it probably had 4-5 partitions
[03:01] <Billiard> xtiger: yes to do a dump just do `dd if=/dev/sdx of=dumpfile.dd`
[03:01] <klem_> wolf23, it's working?
[03:01] <Arsin> Nebel: What would be good then?
[03:01] <Billiard> xtiger: replace x with the correct letter
[03:01] <wolf23> klem_:  now how could i add this application in applications -> internet?
[03:01] <xtiger> Billiard: how do I figure out what the device is? "fdisk -l" won't show it because it's not partitioned
[03:02] <ferric> how do I upgrade ruby on a hardy box?
[03:02] <Nebel> Question: I'm running from the LiveCD, each time I enter Ubuntu 9.10, the system reboots so fast that I can't read what's actually happening. Any ideas?
[03:02] <Billiard> well, do you have another disc in the machine?
[03:02] <klem_> wolf23, right click on the menu button and choose edit
[03:02] <kisuke> G226: make sure the restricted repo is enabled and replace *buntu with your distro
[03:02] <Xcell> Arsin-  go with debian lenny  it fits
[03:02] <pinkey> How can I reset the KDE password "wallet" master password?
[03:02] <klem_> wolf23, or "Edit Menus" to be exact
[03:03] <wolf23> klem_: how can i open a .bin application setup?
[03:03] <Billiard> xtiger: do you have another disk in the machine? process of elimination, it woull probably be /dev/sd(letter)
[03:03] <G226> Kisuke: I'm not really sure how to do that? my distro is 9.10
[03:03] <xtiger> Billiard: I have one other disk, and it's recognized as sd*
[03:04] <xtiger> Billiard: there don't seem to be any others in /dev
[03:04] <oak> hello i am looking for help with getting my sound card ALC882 working. I found this solution on the ubuntuforums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=916586 it worked temporarily until i logged out and now it wont work even after i tried also putting the original code back in save logout -> put new code in again after logging in -> no work -> logout = not working
[03:04] <Nebel> any ideas?
[03:04] <kisuke> G226: system>administration>package sources
[03:04] <Billiard> xtiger: well, is the disk attached? haha
[03:04] <klem_> wolf23, you can make it executable with "chmod +x  file.bin"  or you can do "sh file.bin"
[03:05] <linuxguy2009> Anyone know why netbook remix thinks theres a floppy and cdrom conmnected when there isnt? and when I plug my new slot loading dvdrw in the two icons disapear until the drive is unplugged once again. Its annoying.
[03:05] <Nebel> oak: try alsa force-reload
[03:05] <xtiger> Billiard: yep,  sure is. Do you think it would only be in /dev if it was partitioned?
[03:05] <kisuke> G226: make sure "restricted" is checked on the first tab
[03:05] <tarelerulz> I keep getting this error about ttf-smcorefonts-installer
[03:05] <G226> kisuke: I don't see package sources, only software sources and package manager
[03:05] <Billiard> xtiger: the disk should be in /dev/sdx or /dev/hdx  always
[03:05] <sumeetbali> how can i add custom apps to awn dock?
[03:06] <tarelerulz> it all ways try to download it and fails how do I stop it from doing that so I can download stuff
[03:06] <kisuke> G226: software*
[03:06] <kisuke> G226: tehe
[03:06] <oak> so no thoughts on how to get my sound card working?
[03:06] <G226> kisuke: restricted is already checked
[03:06] <Nebel> yes oak, try to reboot alsa!
[03:06] <oak> what is the command for that?
[03:06] <xtiger> Billiard: is it autodetected or does it have to be in when you boot?
[03:06] <kisuke> ok what is your distro?
[03:06] <oak> is it alsa restart?
[03:07] <oak> 9.1
[03:07] <oak> karmic
[03:07] <kisuke> G226: what distro are you useing
[03:07] <Billiard> xtiger: what type of disk?
[03:07] <Nebel> oak: sudo alsa force-reload
[03:07] <xtiger> Billiard: internal drive
[03:07] <Billiard> xtiger: ide or sata
[03:07] <Nebel> if you're out of sound now, it should work
[03:07] <Nebel> until you reboot again at least
[03:08] <G226> kisuke: default Ubuntu 9.10 off the site
[03:08] <xtiger> Billiard: sata
[03:08] <Nebel> Did it work?
[03:08] <oak> Usage: /sbin/alsa {unload|reload|force-unload|force-reload|suspend|resume}
[03:08] <oak> it returns that
[03:08] <TheCheeze> is there a reason vlc no longer plays xvids after my karmic upgrade?
[03:08] <kisuke> G226: sudo apt-get install w64codecs  ubuntu-restricted-extras
[03:08] <kisuke> G226: i think
[03:08] <Anacranom> oak, Nebel load the fix, then sudo alsa force-reload
[03:08] <Billiard> xtiger: sata is capable of hotplugging, but im not sure if linux supports it or not, it may have to be plugged in on boot
[03:08] <AntiStrange> I have a front and a rear audio output? How can I mute one and not the other? My windows installation on this box allows me to do it. But, can it be done in Ubuntu?
[03:08] <oak> i dont know what Nebel load the fix means
[03:09] <thepeon> If I dd'ed over my hard drive, there's no way to recover my data, is there.
[03:09] <Nebel> me nither hehe
[03:09] <xtiger> Billiard: ok, I'll try that--thanks
[03:09] <oak> ...
[03:09] <Nebel> go to console and write "sudo alsa force-reload"
[03:09] <oak> could you please clarify Anacranom
[03:10] <Anacranom> oak, you made a fix that worked, make sure thats don then do the sudo alsa force-reload
[03:10] <oak> WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release.

[03:11] <kisuke> G226: restart?
[03:11] <oak> any idea as to what that input means?
[03:11] <oak> its still not working anymore
[03:11] <G226> kisuke: I'll try :P be right back

[03:12] <oak> there are a few errors like this
[03:12] <Nebel> ok, now here: How would you "freeze" a console screen before it ends and reboots your machine? Or how do I access the system log that is generated each time I start my Ubuntu 9.10?
[03:13] <ferric> if there's no package in ubuntu-backports, or -updates, that means there's no way to upgrade it is there?
[03:13] <ClayG> How do I make watch online tv episodes on Karmic, nothing works. Is there a post anywhere that has a run down of all the crap you have to do to finally get ubuntu to perform this obscure task, streaming video?
[03:13] <Anacranom> how do i make vlc my default player for DVDs?
[03:14] <oak> its obviously a problem with linux
[03:14] <oak> or ubuntu
[03:14] <oak> and not my computer
[03:14] <G226> kisuke: Still the same problem :P
[03:15] <ZykoticK9> Anacranom, on gnome open natilus and Edit / Preferences then the Media tab - change DVD Video to VLC
[03:15] <gasgesgos> hello everyone
[03:15] <KnifeySpooney> If I disable the Virtualbox daemon from loading at boot, will I still be able to load Virtualbox later, even if it's slower?
[03:15] <Anacranom> ty ZykoticK9
[03:15] <kisuke> G226: ding, dang, and double **** it sorry out of my league, :(
[03:15] <G226> Kisuke: Okay :P D:
[03:16] <G226> kisuke: thanks for trying
[03:16] <Electric_Poison> when i upgraded to karmic it crashed midway throught upgrade... idk what that did to my system, but it no longer prompts low graphics mode (its an external hdd*
[03:16] <kisuke> G226: np
[03:16] <kisuke> G226: good luck
[03:16] <Anacranom> ty ZykoticK9 , vlc not in the options?
[03:16] <G226> kisuke: thanks
[03:17] <AntiStrange> I have a front and a rear audio output? How can I mute one and not the other? My windows installation on this box allows me to do it. But, can it be done in Ubuntu?
[03:18] <matthewf> I'm trying to configure ubuntu's grub to be able to boot into my old centos install, but the instructions on the wiki seem a bit dated. I have no /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:18] <Electric_Poison> ive never seen a windows machine do that anti
[03:18] <smwn> Hey
[03:18] <tommynz1975> hello people :)
[03:18] <matthewf> I just installed ubuntu 9.10 today
[03:18] <smwn> I have a wireless internet setup
[03:18] <smwn> is there anyway to trick ubuntu into thinking its ethernet
[03:18] <Electric_Poison> mine always routes the audio to the headphones first, then to the speakers
[03:19] <smwn> brb need to take a dump
[03:20] <nicle> matthewf: Im using 9.10,and I do have /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:20] <matthewf> I think I'm supposed to modify /etc/grub.d/40_custom, but am unsure what format goes there, as /boot/grub/grub.cnf has a grub format I've never seen before
[03:20] <sumeetbali> is anyone familiar with AWN dock?
[03:21] <arun__> how to play games in ubuntu?
[03:21] <Billiard> arun__: which games

[03:21] <maple1> I'm drunk as fuck
[03:21] <Xcell> maple1-
[03:22] <arun__> kabus 22
[03:22] <sumeetbali> is anyone familiar with AWN dock? anyone?
[03:22] <ClayG> How do I make watch online tv episodes on Karmic, nothing works. Is there a post anywhere that has a run down of all the crap you have to do to finally get ubuntu to perform this obscure task, streaming video?
[03:22] <meianandh> hi, i have a game in java, how can that be added to ubuntu software center, so that every one can use it ?
[03:22] <knoppies> sumeetbali, I used to use it, but with compiz, if you unminimized one thing while another was minimizing x would freese. So I got rid of it.
[03:23] <Xcell> cario-dock works nice
[03:23] <DanaG> knoppies: unminimize freeze... was this on ATI?
[03:23] <G226> Question: I'm trying to play a WVP2 "Windows Media Video 9.1 Image V2" video, I've enabled restricted in repos, installed mplayer, installed vlc, installed win32codecs and medibuntu but it still doesn't play. Any ideas? Only audio plays.
[03:23] <knoppies> DanaG, yea, I think so
 oh okay but do you know how to add custom icons to the dock?
[03:23] <matthewf> nicle: hmm
[03:24] <knoppies> sumeetbali, yes, but I dont remember the exacts. You right click on the dock and bring up the settings, then one of the lower tabs on the left, was launchers
[03:24] <TheCheeze> is anyone else having xvid problems after upgrading to karmic?
[03:24] <arun__> there is any package for playing windows games in ubuntu
[03:24] <knoppies> sumeetbali, now I use cairo-dock
[03:24] <ClayG> how can I watch online TV with karmic, every site wont stream? IS there a list of all the stuff I need to get like other dists?
[03:24] <Celroc> Hi all
 cario dock huh
 how is it
[03:25] <`sNake> has anyone attempted to install ubuntu 9.10 in a parallels 4 (mac) VM?
[03:25] <tommynz1975> hi Celroc
[03:25] <ubuntu_> new pepole
[03:25] <ClayG> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Karmic <---finally
[03:25] <nicle> arun__: using wine, but not 100% works, good luck
[03:25] <knoppies> sumeetbali, Im on an old machine, so the graphics card is crap, therefore cairo uses a 25% of my CPU at times (even with most animations off/turned down to a minimum)
[03:25] <arand> !wine | arun__
[03:25] <ubuntu_> what ?
[03:25] <knoppies> sumeetbali, but other than that, its great.
 okay and i can drag and drop icons to it?
[03:26] <matthewf> my /boot/grub looks like this: http://pastebin.ca/1665872
[03:26] <Xcell> sumeetbali-  from menus yes
[03:26] <knoppies> sumeetbali, not sure, there is an extension with drag and drop, but I think thats to upload files to a website.
 downloading now! thanks guys
[03:27] <Xcell> k
[03:27] <knoppies> sumeetbali, I just tried, and it works
[03:27] <knoppies> sumeetbali, drag and drop I mean
[03:27] <knoppies> sumeetbali, glad I could help.
[03:27] <Celroc> I ran "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and it seemed to install. So, I switched over from Gnome to KDE and did that successfully. But, when I tried to open World of Warcraft (which was installed through Crossover), it comes back with the error "There is no Windows program configured to open this kind of file." I think I finally found the culprit: Everytime I double click on the WoW icon, the folder that it is installed in gets its
[03:27] <Celroc>  permissions changed. What could be causing this?
[03:28] <Xcell> sumeetbali-  once you get one on the dock.. you can change icon look with right click and configure icon
[03:28] <meianandh> Question: how can we add a software to "ubuntu software center"
 okay thanks as soon as it installs ill pm you okay?
[03:28] <Xcell> hahah
[03:28] <Xcell> im beddy bye shortly
[03:29] <Celroc> sumeetbali: I'm also using Cairo Dock. Just installed today
[03:29] <knoppies> meianandh, you are actually trying to add software to the repositories. So search that up on ubuntuforums.
[03:29] <fate> how do it?
[03:29] <Xcell> it works great.. way better than awn
[03:29] <Xcell> anyway.. nity nite
[03:29] <knoppies> sumeetbali, I second that Xcell.
[03:29] <knoppies> sumeetbali, make sure you get cairo-dock 2.0
[03:29] <meianandh> knoppies, thank you
[03:30] <knoppies> meianandh, no problem. Sorry but I dont know anything about adding software to the repositories.
[03:30] <qwyeth> I have here a blank DVD +7 with 4.7GB free, but Brasero sees only 2.0GB.  :P
[03:30] <qwyeth> er, DVD +R
[03:30] <Celroc> Hey all, what could cause a WINE program to change a folder's permissions eratically?
[03:30] <knoppies> qwyeth, have you burned to the DVD before?
[03:30] <matmatmat> i updated from jaunty to karmic and now my screen resolution wont go higher than 800x600, what can i do about that?
[03:31] <knoppies> matmatmat, sounds like you need to install drivers.
[03:31] <qwyeth> I don't think I ever tried in jaunty, but I have in MS OS
[03:31] <Celroc> matmatmat: System>Administration>Hardware Drivers ;-)
[03:31] <matmatmat> i got a geforce 4 and i tried both the propr. driver and the original
[03:31] <Celroc> matmatmat: Oh
[03:31] <G226> Kisuke: To solve it I had to go to gedit ~/.mplayer/gui.conf  then set vo_driver = "xv"   just incase you were curious
[03:31] <kisuke> Celroc: try #winehq
[03:31] <qwyeth> Oh, you mean this particular DVD?
[03:31] <qwyeth> No
[03:31] <qwyeth> I've tried multiple blanks
[03:31] <epinky> 2.0GB? that's unacceptable if it's a blank DVD
[03:31] <meianandh> knoppies, fine, i have a game program, thought of adding it... thanks for your help.. i will chk the forums..
[03:31] <Celroc> kisuke: Thanks... actually, it is in Crossover, I'll try there channel
[03:31] <qwyeth> lemme see if I have a different brand of media
[03:32] <joljam> my desktop Karmic koala installation crashed yesterday while I was going on suspend mode.. when I tried restarting I am getting the message..."Mount of filesystem failed... A maintenance shell will now be started...Control-D will terminate this shell and retry"
[03:32] <knoppies> qwyeth, Im not sure. try it in a different drive? see if it has the same result.
[03:32] <kisuke> G226: lolzers, glad you got it to work
[03:32] <helper> joljam i believe is't the "/" mount  device fail ?
[03:33] <qwyeth> it's unfortunately my only DVD writer... they all work fine with 800MB cds
[03:33] <wesky93> ?

[03:33] <wesky93> oh
[03:33] <G226> kisuke: Yeh basically had to switch the codec that mplayer uses, im not sure how to do it for vlc or media player but :P ill leave it at this at least it plays in something haha
[03:33] <matmatmat> ????
[03:33] <helper> joljam did you check your /etc/fstab ?
[03:33] <Arsin> What Ubuntu version would be ideal for a computer with a P3 1GHz 256SDRAM?
[03:34] <joljam> helper: no let me check it now
[03:34] <helper> joljam got 9.10 ?
[03:34] <matmatmat> 你好
[03:34] <qwyeth> ok, found a different brand of DVD and it still says 2GB
[03:34] <joljam> yes I have 9.10
[03:35] <kisuke> Arsin: xubuntu, or if it is out lubuntu would be better it is what i used
[03:35] <fate> how do it?
[03:35] <Sirisian> hmm Why doesn't the ubuntu kernel export sys_call_table? They don't want people to hijack the system calls? I was writing a program that monitors a system call. So am I expected to recompile the kernel and just write the code into the kernel source or did they make a way to replace the system calls in a cleaner way?
[03:35] <Arsin> kisuke: 9.10 or what?
[03:36] <jjwdesign> Ubuntu Upgrade 9.10 errors: "dbus_move_error" and "dbus_error_is_set"... should I be worried?
[03:36] <kisuke> that is the current long term support version so yes
[03:36] <kisuke> arsin: yes
[03:36] <AntiStrange> I have a front and a rear audio output? How can I mute one and not the other? My windows installation on this box allows me to do it. But, can it be done in Ubuntu?
[03:36] <helper> joljam btw did you try to fsck the device maybe can fix the error after resolving the /etc/fstab check the "/" device mount and type of FS it mount ! maybe something wrong happen to !
[03:36] <joljam> helper: yes i have fstab opened in front of me

[03:38] <umdoak> i was on here earlier posting as oak about my problem with my alc882 sound card
[03:38] <ccfontes> sorry, wrong channel

[03:39] <SeaPhor> ccfontes, if in a term, import filename.extension, example import screenshot.jpg

[03:40] <KnifeySpooney> especially the power management
[03:40] <AntiStrange> mrmcgibby: I'm not sure, but try going to  system>administration>hardware drivers  and see if you can activate something in there.
[03:40] <jjwdesign> Ubuntu Upgrade 9.10 errors: "dbus_move_error" and "dbus_error_is_set"... should I be worried?
[03:41] <mrmcgibby> AntiStrange: I've already got the card working, the drivers in there didn't work so I had to use ndiswrapper
[03:41] <Celroc> Hey all, I switched my graphical desktop manager from gdm to kdm after installing the kubuntu-desktop package. How can I switch it back to gdm?
[03:41] <sumeetbali> who was helping me with cairodock
[03:42] <umdoak> im going to ask my question once more in a condensed format because i think it got overlooked
[03:42] <umdoak> ok so when i boot from the ubuntu cd and when i had a fresh install my sound worked perfectly, how do i take the sound setting from the ubuntu cd and import them to my install on my hd?
[03:42] <mrmcgibby> AntiStrange: but now when I try to connect using the GUI, it doesn't work

[03:55] <tonpoch> I think that it is just the dns problem, I know that I am getting an ip.  It has worked before, but then it stopped
[03:55] <smwn> jab06y: is it a usb wifi?
[03:55] <smwn> if so what one is it
[03:55] <helper> tonpoch is't dynamic (DHCP ) ?
[03:56] <jab06y> no its mobo
[03:57] <jab06y> its a toshiba a215 (keeps getting better eh)
[03:57] <tonpoch> I'm not sure what dhcp is, but it is definitly dns
[03:57] <smackd> can anyone point me to a good site or help me setup this.. i want to make it so that, say user  bob and user bill have different domains for the email address.. i have a few domains on this server... how can i do this.
[03:58] <atealtha> I don't have a /dev/vboxdrv. I ALSO don't have /etc/init.d/vboxdrv to recompile the module and set everything up. I tried removing and reinstalling virtualbox-ose but still nothing worked. anyone know what I can do?
[03:59] <zizizo> my box crashes everytime i try to install java, and when i run dpkg --configure -a it crashes again, is there a way to remove it in this state?
[04:00] <nicle> atealtha: how about virtualbox-3.0?  it works on my ubuntu 9.10 box
[04:00] <Random832> (oops hit ctrl-w to go back a word)
[04:00] <atealtha> nicle: that's what I'm using, unless you mean the non OSE version
[04:00] <matmatmat> can i set the screen resolution in the xorg.conf in karmic?
[04:01] <matmatmat> and if not, where else
[04:01] <eshannon> Anyone know What it means when my 3ware raid card says "Drive not used"? Did one of my drives fail?
[04:01] <Random832> My text mode consoles mess up when resuming from hibernate - Ubuntu 9.10, ATI Radeon RS690M
[04:01] <KnifeySpooney_> Is it ok to disable the rsync daemon from start? i never use rsync in normal ubuntu activities, but is it necessary for boot?
[04:02] <SeaPhor> all- quitting/comming back with a new nick/asking the same question in a different way/ doesnt help, it just adds to the issues, and ties up volunteers that could be helping people, if you aren't happy with the help you are given,, 1-have you explained your situation properly? 2- see #1, you probably didn't, if you did- then ask those who helped you to explain further because you didnt understand fully
[04:02] <nicle> atealtha: yes, this is the non OSE edition, add: "deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian karmic non-free" to your source.list
[04:02] <juancnh80> hola ¿que tal?
[04:02] <KnifeySpooney_> estoy bien
[04:02] <nicle> atealtha: sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get install virtualbox-3.0

[04:03] <nicle> atealtha: first of all, please uninstall the previous version
[04:03] <ZykoticK9> anyone having this issue with cairo-dock and twinview?  http://imagebin.org/71277
[04:03] <atealtha> of course

[04:03] <nitrus^1> ive downloaded some source using apt-get source and i made some modifications to it and i want to build it and make debian packages but when i execute dpkg-buildpackage it keeps overwriting my changes

[04:03] <ceineke_> Anybody have the same issue?
[04:04] <matmatmat> thanks to myself for solving my problem without your help

[04:04] <jab06y> has anyone else dealt with the inability to connect to a network. Lag then rejection by a key error,with or without the need for a network key. atheros ar242x
[04:04] <KnifeySpooney_> juancnh80: debes ir a #ubuntu-es para espanol
[04:04] <ceineke_> My system worked up until today. I update'd and upgrade'd and after a reboot, X wouldn't start anymore.
[04:05] <atealtha> nicle: ose was like 6 megs, and non-ose is 43 megs. is that right?
[04:07] <ceineke_> anybody? ^^;
[04:07] <musikgoat> ceineke_: did you try dist-upgrade?
[04:07] <musikgoat> ceineke_: were you running beta?
[04:07] <ceineke_> 1. Yes. 2. Yes. But I dist-upgraded to release before that.
[04:08] <KnifeySpooney_> ceineke_: I upgraded karmic beta to finalrelease and I was left with a mountall failure - https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447747 - Ended up just reinstalling.
[04:09] <musikgoat> ceineke_: have you tried parsing through your x logs?
[04:09] <Adola> I ran "mesg y" on my machine, and got an error: "tty device is not owned by group TTY"
[04:09] <hey_boy> Hi everybody.

[04:10] <hey_boy> My Update Manager is strangely. The file size displayed seems not to be correct
[04:10] <wzssyqa> since gnome 2.32 =gnome 3,will ubntu 1004 use gnome 2.30?
[04:10] <AaronM> matmatmat dvd would be /dev/sr0
[04:10] <rasmith1959> Hello everyone!
[04:10] <matmatmat> AaronM: dvB
[04:11] <AaronM> idk then
[04:11] <webbb82> ok i got a eaasy qquestion   what does the amp   in   sudo apt-get update &amp;&amp; sudo apt-get install firefox-3.6   do
[04:11] <musikgoat> matmatmat: isn't it /dev/videoX where X is the iteration?
[04:11] <musikgoat> matmatmat: cant confirm tho
[04:11] <AaronM> &amp; is a & in html
[04:12] <rasmith1959> It just chains the 2 commands on one line..
[04:12] <sumeetbali> how to make caro dock bigger
[04:12] <musikgoat> webbb82: && says if the first does not fail do the second
[04:12] <AaronM> so its updating the aptlist and then installing firefox3.6
[04:12] <rasmith1959> runs the first, then the 2nd when the first is done.
[04:12] <webbb82> thanks everyone   quick and easy   l
[04:13] <musikgoat> but its important to not the first must be successful
[04:13] <musikgoat> you can do first-command;second-command and the second command will run no matter the exit condition of the first
[04:13] <matmatmat> musikgoat: it used to be dvbX .. and i neither have dvb nor videoX or anything else
[04:14] <matmatmat> so it would be good to know if it has changed to some funny name i cant find
[04:14] <rasmith1959> Anyone have any good links on how to modify the new Grun2?
[04:14] <rasmith1959> that's Grub2..
[04:15] <matmatmat> kaffeine is showing me digital tv
[04:15] <matmatmat> but no source
[04:15] <hey_boy> Update Manager behaving strangely. Any links
[04:15] <hey_boy> would be helpful
[04:15] <matmatmat> earlier the digital tv thing was a hint for the driver being installed correctly
[04:15] <matmatmat> now i have no source to choose
[04:16] <matmatmat> but the driver seems to have been found
[04:16] <astechgeek> Do you have to enter a password everytime you want to mount a raid array?

[04:20] <webbb82> sorry for the big post i would use pastebin by i got now browser    when i went to install firefox 3.6  after adding the repo i get this
[04:20] <webbb82> Package firefox-3.6 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[04:20] <webbb82> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[04:20] <webbb82> is only available from another source
[04:20] <webbb82> E: Package firefox-3.6 has no installation candidate
[04:21] <FloodBot3> webbb82: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:21] <losha> Kirsch: are you talking about port forwarding? You have to allow incoming connections to port 22....
[04:21] <musikgoat1> !pastbinit | webbb82
[04:21] <musikgoat1> !pastebinit | webb
[04:21] <webbb82> i just said i would use pastebin but i have no internet browser

[04:22] <daffes> qmsg daffes Hi everyone, I've upgrated to 9.10 and I'm having a little problem with my sound. I need one application to "initialize" the sound, like playing a mp3 and pausing it, if I do so everything works perfectly, but if I stop(instead of pausing) it keeps making an annoying sound in my headphone and in skype for example the right side doesn't work, does anyone have any idea about how to fix itw
[04:22] <musikgoat1> webbb82: or minefield
[04:23] <witeshark> anyone else seen this?  http://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/java

[04:25] <ecrane2> Hi I have Acer Aspire 5000 laptop. When I boot to 64 bit 9.10, and after install, I have really messed up/washed out colors, like X is trying to use a color palette not suported by my video card or screen or something. Where can I start troubleshooting/fixing this?
[04:26] <ceineke_> re :D
[04:27] <ceineke_> I've got the following in my xorg logs:
[04:27] <ceineke_> AUDIT: Thu Nov 13 12:15:46 2008: 1943 X: client 4 rejected from local host ( uid=0 gid=0 pid=1961 )
[04:27] <Salvad> Is there a way to stop Linux from modifying the time in the BIOS?
[04:27] <ceineke_> Does that ring any bells?
[04:27] <musikgoat1> ceineke_: that doesn't give much information, can you pastebin your log?
[04:29] <smwn> I hate slow internet
[04:29] <smwn> I hate slow internet
[04:29] <musikgoat1> latency much?
[04:29] <musikgoat1> :)
[04:30] <ceineke_> musikgoat1: http://pastebin.com/m1d5d98af
[04:30] <SeaPhor> Salvad, whats the real problem?
[04:31] <Salvad> The problem is that I have one hour ahoead of the time in my contry.
[04:31] <Salvad> An in the BIOS is 3 hours ahead.
[04:32] <SeaPhor> Salvad, then just set the correct system time?
[04:32] <Salvad> If I set the time correctly in the BIOS and start Linux anch check the BIOS time again the time is 3 gours ahead again.
[04:33] <SeaPhor> Salvad, set in OS and in bios?
[04:33] <Salvad> I disable the time fetching from servers.
[04:33] <curtis> after upgrade to 910, wireless isn't working..same network, same password, no DICE\
[04:33] <Salvad> *Disabled.
[04:33] <musikgoat1> Salvad: when you set your time correctly in linux, then run hwclock --systohc
[04:33] <musikgoat1> (sudo)
[04:34] <musikgoat1> that should set it the same
[04:34] <Salvad> If I set the time correctly in Linux, and restart the time is one hour ahead again.
[04:34] <musikgoat1> ceineke_: the logs look clean
[04:34] <Dasda> i got a weird issue. everytime i try to use a useneet reader to download nsb's, it messes up my router. The nzb downloading works fine though on my windows desktop
[04:34] <musikgoat1> have you checked if there are any errors when running /etc/init.d/gdm start
[04:34] <ceineke_> musikgoat1: except for "ddxSigGiveUp"
[04:35] <Dasda> is that a bug in ubuntu?
[04:35] <Billiard> Dasda: messes up your router?
[04:35] <musikgoat1> ceineke_: hah, i misread that
[04:35] <Guest25364> after upgrade to 910, i can't get wireless to work...same network, same password, NO CONNECT
[04:35] <musikgoat1> ceineke_: looked like the shutdown process :P
[04:35] <Billiard> Guest25364: does it work on the live cd?
[04:36] <Salvad> What does that command do, musikgoat1?
[04:36] <Guest25364> Billiard: don't have live cd, it was update manager upgrade..
[04:36] <musikgoat1> Salvad: it writes the system time to the hardware clock
[04:36] <SeaPhor> Guest25364, did you re-enable the restricted drivers?
[04:36] <Salvad> OK.
[04:36] <Guest25364> SeaPHor, don't recall doing that in 904, but ill check it out
[04:36] <ceineke_> musikgoat1: The weird thing is, after selecting to start ubuntu in low-graphics mode, I got a working gdm login screen. Even 3D acceleration works.
[04:37] <Dasda> Billiard: Ubuntu shows i am connected to router but internet doesn't work and it stops working on my winddows dekstop also. Then i reset router and it goes to normal
[04:37] <musikgoat1> ceineke_: you might want to try reconfiguring your xserver package...sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:37] <krishnan> hi our office network has computers running hardy. we have purchased epson T40W printer for our network. Will we be able to connect it and use it with windows?
[04:38] <Guest25364> SeaPhor: it's totally recognizing my network, just not connecting
[04:38] <tuv> how do i change/set the window icon (shown on the title bar and the window switcher) for a given application?
[04:38] <Billiard> Dasda: maybe your router cant handle the amount of connections unbuntu is creating
[04:38] <ceineke_> musikgoat1: ok, i just did that. i'll restart and see what happens.
[04:38] <musikgoat1> krishnan: you are asking if you can connect to a printer from windows? wrong channel
[04:39] <Dasda> Billiard: that could be possible becasuse i use 20 connections for my nzb reader (pan)
[04:39] <musikgoat1> krishnan: ask in ##windows
[04:39] <Salvad> Look for documentation for how to configure Samba.
[04:39] <Salvad> krishnan.
[04:39] <krishnan> musikgoat1: sorry mistake. can we connect it with hardy
[04:39] <nicolas> trying to install karmic 9.10, will not install boot loader grub any suggestions?
[04:39] <krishnan> salvad: just a typing mistake. i meant hardy
[04:39] <Billiard> nicolas: what error do you get
[04:40] <SeaPhor> Guest25364, so iwlist scan shows the APs?
[04:40] <krishnan> musikgoat1: i mis typed windows in place of hardy
[04:40] <nicolas> Billiard: on both the live cd as well as the alternate it will install the whole system then at the very last say that the grub boot loader could not be installed to target and that it will not be able to boot
[04:40] <musikgoat1> krishnan: how are you sharing that printer to your different computers?  it doesn't look like it has print serving
[04:41] <Guest25364> SeaPhor: yep...everything appears totally normal..no connect..strange
[04:41] <nicolas> Billiard: on the alternate cd I even tried to install the other boot loader available
[04:41] <Billiard> nicolas: lilo didnt work either?
[04:41] <krishnan> musikgoat1: it has a built in print server and can be shared with wi-fi or wired LAN
[04:41] <musikgoat1> krishnan: then you will likely connect via lpd
[04:41] <nicolas> Billiard: no, someone said it may have something to do with my HDDs being RAID, therefore I tried the alternate cd, with no luck
[04:41] <SeaPhor> Guest25364, re-put-in your essid-enc-psk stuff,,,
[04:41] <musikgoat1> !lpd | krishnan
[04:42] <jlink> I have a question regarding Evolution, if someone can assist me
[04:42] <krishnan> musikgoat1: tell me more about it. wat is lpd?
[04:42] <Billiard> nicolas: o you have a raid, that probably is the issue, i have never dealt with raid sorry
[04:42] <musikgoat1> krishnan: line printer daemon
[04:43] <krishnan> m
[04:43] <krishnan> musikgoat1: ok but how to use it and how to get it working in hardy
[04:43] <nicle> atealtha: cos some dep packages has been introduced in your previous installation
[04:43] <nicolas> Billiard: someone else set my system up, is there anyway to undo the RAID or disable the controller: I disabled the controller(jmicron) in Bios, with no luck
[04:44] <atealtha> nicle: it was the vbox package itself, not the sum total. not complaining, just an observation
[04:44] <SkyX> how much disk space need just clean install ?
[04:44] <Billiard> nicolas:  undo the raid? then you would lose your current data
[04:44] <nicle> atealtha: just have a try :)
[04:44] <Salvad1> Entered that command and now the BIOS is 2 hours forward.
[04:45] <nicolas> Billiard: that is no problem, I am wanting a fresh install anyway
[04:45] <Salvad1> And the Linux time is 1 again.
[04:45] <atealtha> nicle: already did, riddled with bugs. I can't even modify a freshly made vm without errors
[04:45] <Billiard> nicolas: sorry i havent dealt much with raids, idk how you would turn it off, depends on your setup
[04:46] <nicolas> Billiard: thanks for the try
[04:46] <krishnan> musikgoat1: ?
[04:46] <musikgoat1> krishnan: i'm checking if there are any guides
[04:46] <krishnan> musikgoat1: i searched but did nt get any info
[04:47] <nicle> atealtha: the size of  vb3.0  package is about 43 M on my box,
[04:48] <nicle> atealtha: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 42M 2009-10-29 21:50 virtualbox-3.0_3.0.10-54097%5fUbuntu%5fkarmic_i386.deb
[04:48] <death_energy> hello, when i build from source with ./configure make, what means make 2 out of directory?
[04:49] <jlink> I'm trying to add a group to my Users and Groups. I add the group, add myself and another user to it, then save. It shows up in the groups list and stays there until I close the Users and Groups window, but when I go back in there and look at the groups list again, it's gone
[04:49] <Billiard> death_energy: can you rephrase that?
[04:49] <death_energy> yes
[04:49] <SeaPhor> Guest25364, right-click on the network manager and choose edit conne.. and then click on the wireless tab, remove/delete any there,,, save/close and then click on it again and that will scan avail APs , choose yours and put your info in again
[04:49] <death_energy> make[3]: se sale del directorio `/home/user/Desktop/libevent/test'
[04:50] <musikgoat1> krishnan: it looks lke the printer only supports rendezvous on the mac side... doesn't look like much for line printer acces
[04:50] <Billiard> death_energy: thats not an error is it? its just a message?
[04:50] <musikgoat1> krishnan: you should ask epson if they support that
[04:51] <Roasted> Is anybody running the AWN dock on their Ubuntu machine? I run dual scren, and the dock appears on my secondary monitor. I want to move it but dont know how.
[04:52] <musikgoat1> krishnan: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-Stylus_Office_T40W   but I think that is for direct printing
[04:53] <krishnan> musikgoat1: iam from india and here the person who will be coming from the epson side to install in our office will be nincompoop and will nt be able to set it up. iam for sure. i read some article over the internet and downloaded some driver to make epson t40w work. however thy are nt sure if it will work.
[04:53] <ecrane2> Hi can anyone help me with the washed-out colors problem I posted before?
[04:53] <krishnan> musikgoat1: yes i too downloaded from the same. i also have a feeling tht to print across the internet i dnt think any software or driver will be needed. let us see.
[04:54] <prappl93> I just recently put Ubuntu 9
[04:54] <musikgoat1> krishnan: read up on this http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/database/lpddocumentation
[04:54] <death_energy> i think this is only a information msj
[04:54] <death_energy> but ty anyways
[04:55] <Shwack> After   sudo apt-get --purge autoremove mumble-server   all my mumble-server folders are still around.   Am I doing something wrong?
[04:55] <prappl93> I just recently put Ubuntu 9.10 on my computer, but I can only start my computer in Failsafe GNOME. My processor is an AMD Athalon(tm) XP 2000+. Do I need drivers for it?
[04:55] <tonyyarusso> prappl93: the issue is your video card, not your processor.  I'm unlikely to be able to help you beyond that, but it's a start.
[04:55] <musikgoat1> krishnan: have you tried adding a "network printer" and instructing lpd?
[04:56] <krishnan> musikgoat1: ok thanks a lot. now all i have to do is wait for the technical guy to come and give me a demo
[04:56] <prappl93> How do I find my video card info then install its drivers?
[04:56] <i_is_broke> prappl93, try lspci
[04:56] <i_is_broke> !ati > prappl93
[04:57] <musikgoat1> krishnan: oh you don't have it to test yet?
[04:57] <Shwack> After   sudo apt-get --purge autoremove mumble-server   all my mumbler-server folders are still around.  Am I doing something wrong?
[04:57] <prappl93> i_is_broke, thanks. Its an ATI card
[04:57] <SeaPhor> prappl93, first look at System>Administration>Hardware Drivers..
[04:57] <i_is_broke> prappl93, np yw
[04:57] <Roasted> Is anybody running the AWN dock on their Ubuntu machine? I run dual scren, and the dock appears on my secondary monitor. I want to move it but dont know how.
[04:58] <krishnan> musikgoat1: i can assemble myself. but the fact is i do not want the epson guy to tell me tht my warranty is void because i tried it myself before a demo.
[04:58] <musikgoat1> heh
[04:59] <jlink> Can you increase the width of the handles at the edges of my windows so that it's easier to resize my window?
[04:59] <tuv> how do i change/set the window icon (shown on the title bar and the window switcher) for a given application?
[04:59] <knoppies> roasted, think it has a setting for that.
[04:59] <knoppies> jlink I think you can, let me go find where.
[04:59] <Shwack> jlink thank you for asking cuz im going tno love that answer
[04:59] <Roasted> knoppies - really? Im in the preferences menu, not finding anything...
[05:00] <knoppies> Roasted, Im not sure, i dont use awn anymore
[05:00] <Roasted> knoppies - did you use awn with a mac theme?
[05:00] <knoppies> Roasted, no
[05:00] <Roasted> knoppies - did you run it with dual screen?
[05:00] <jpbaa1> anyone running gnome shell?
[05:00] <prappl93> How do I download the ATI driver I need now?

[05:01] <isolat3dsh33p> hello guys, Q: is there anyway i could set my ubuntu to automatic login at boot?
[05:01] <death_energy> go to synaptic, and install envyng-core, then run it in terminal, and intall ati drivers
[05:01] <knoppies> jlink, do you have emerald installed?
[05:01] <death_energy> envyng it's a wizard that help you install the drivers
[05:01] <majin_jon>  iso you don t want that.
[05:02] <death_energy> serch it in google for more info
[05:02] <mr_queue> format pubmsg_hilight_channel {pubmsghinick $0 $4 $[-9]1{msgchannel $2}}$3
[05:02] <isolat3dsh33p> majin_jon, why?
[05:02] <jlink> This is essentially a fresh install of Koala, so unless it's packaged with it, no.
[05:02] <knoppies> Shwack, do you have emerald installed
[05:02] <majin_jon> root is a protectio
[05:02] <Shwack> not that i know of
[05:03] <knoppies> jlink, then I dont think you have it installed. If you plan on using compiz, then install compiz settings manager, and emerald. Im not sure how to do it without those. But I can have a look.
[05:03] <prappl93> death_energy, how do I run it in terminal
[05:03] <knoppies> Shwack, you see what I sent jlink?
[05:03] <Shwack> yes
[05:03] <SeaPhor> i_is_broke, a better response would have been>  first look at System>Administration>Hardware Drivers.. then lshw -C video,   then lspci |grep VGA
[05:03] <isolat3dsh33p> majin_jon, so no automatic login in 9.10?
[05:03] <Shwack> thank you - do you know anything about why I can't get sudo apt-get --purge autoremove mumble-server  to get rid of my mumble folders??
[05:03] <i_is_broke> SeaPhor, then why didnt you tell him tha.
[05:03] <jlink> knoppies: Ah, I see. I'll mess around with that. Thanks
[05:03] <i_is_broke> that
[05:04] <knoppies> jlink, alternatively you can try use alt-F8
[05:04] <majin_jon> there is but sudo is good... root all the time is dangerous... especially for a drunk like me
[05:04] <SeaPhor> i_is_broke, i did, but that took longer, and you answered first,,, not best
[05:04] <node357> isolat3dsh33p, http://tinyurl.com/qc3ndj
[05:05] <jpbaa1> anyone tested gnome-shell?
[05:05] <jlink> knoppies: Meh, I just moved from windows and keyboard shortcuts scare me :P
[05:05] <i_is_broke> SeaPhor, no problem, ill just keep my comments to myself...
[05:05] <death_energy> prappl93, just type: envyng -t
[05:05] <a> hi, a quick question: how can I generate a configuration file from a running X system?
[05:05] <majin_jon> quickie
[05:06] <judgen> how do i kill the accessibillity daemon for gnome?
[05:06] <knoppies> jlink, the options are under emerald. Themes settings (tab). edit themes(subtab). Frame/Shadows(subsubtab)
[05:06] <Roasted> knoppies - did you ever use a mac-like dock with ubuntu that you could adjust its position?
[05:06] <jlink> knoppies: Thanks much!
[05:07] <majin_jon> jlink you have to use emerald --replace eac@
[05:07] <isolat3dsh33p> majin_jon, i'm not a drunkard :/
[05:07] <knoppies> Roasted, I think the closest to mac dock that I used was awn. Cairo dock is much better imo. I can adjust the position with cairo-dock.
[05:07] <majin_jon> h time you run it
[05:07] <isolat3dsh33p> node357, thanks
[05:07] <Shwack> Is there anybody who knows why I can't get sudo apt-get to completely remove a program?
[05:07] <judgen> what is the nameof the service that produces the accessibillity icon in the systray?
[05:07] <a> hi, a quick question: how can I generate a configuration file from a running X system?
[05:07] <Roasted> knoppies - right after I asked you taht I found the option in cairo dock. awesome. Do you use Gnome?
[05:08] <knoppies> Roasted, yes
[05:08] <knoppies> a, you mean xorg.conf?
[05:08] <a> knoppies, yes
[05:08] <judgen> Shwack, tried "apitude purge nameoftheapp"
[05:08] <Roasted> knoppies - do you use cairo dock in replacement of the bottom taskbar in ubuntu?
[05:08] <Guest84306> when installing the bootloader, do I
[05:08] <Guest84306> install it on hd0?
[05:08] <Shwack> judgen: If you are right I am going to love you
[05:08] <knoppies> a, do you have an nvidia card installed, with the nvidia drivers?
[05:09] <knoppies> Roasted, yes
[05:09] <knoppies> Roasted, but I still keep the top bar.
[05:09] <judgen> Shwack,  rofl
[05:09] <Roasted> knoppies - is there a way to just disable the bottom gnome bar and reenable it later? Or do I have to delete it and re-build it later? I know I wont always use this setup, Im just playing around with this mac theme.
[05:09] <Guest84306> or do I install it on the hard drive I'm installing ubuntu on?
[05:10] <Guest84306> I'm this close to installing ubuntu. please help.
[05:10] <knoppies> Roasted, you could move it to one side, but I think deleting and re-building is your only other option.
[05:10] <jlink> Freakin sweet guys, got it working. Thanks!
[05:10] <Shwack> judgen -  after sudo aptitude purge mumble-server  I am still left with /urs/share/doc/mumble-server/       /var/lib/mumble-server/      and another file related to mumble-server in /var/lib/
[05:10] <Roasted> knoppies - well, evn still, adding the trash can and show desktop isnt a big deal. :P thanks bro
[05:10] <majin_jon> knoppies I installed nvidia drivers on 8.1 and got an update through auomatics and it prevents any of the gui toys...
[05:10] <blubblub> can anyone help me get my bluetooth mouse working again? It hasn't been working since the upgrade Jaunty Jackelope
[05:11] <a> knoppies, no I have a intel card, does it matters?
[05:11] <knoppies> jlink, be sure to play with the compiz advanced settings
[05:11] <knoppies> majin_jon, then Im not sure.
[05:11] <knoppies> a. I know that the nvidia driver settings manager can generate a xorg.conf, but apparently its an old version of the xorg.conf
[05:11] <judgen> Shwack, that is odd indeed.. should be gone.
[05:11] <majin_jon> think the update screwed something?
[05:11] <knoppies> a, why do you want a xorg.conf? I can tell you were to find the one its using now?
[05:12] <knoppies> majin_jon, maybe.
[05:12] <_humbug> holy fuck, I can see my nick w/o scrolling down
[05:12] <_humbug> _'s ftw
[05:12] <Pikachu_> do I install the bootloader on (hd0) or the hard drive I'm installing Ubuntu on?
[05:12] <louis> Can anyone tell me hat the hot/shortkey is to bring up search dialogue?
[05:12] <majin_jon> knoppies , never heard of that happening with thegui?
[05:12] <louis> hat=the
[05:13] <blubblub> could anyone help me get my bluetooth mouse working again? It hasn't been working since the upgrade Jaunty Jackelope
[05:13] <knoppies> majin_jon, I use 9.04. and other than yours, no
[05:13] <majin_jon> alright
[05:13] <Pikachu_> icedwater, do you know? you helped me before.
[05:13] <knoppies> louis, I thought it was alt-F2, but that turns out to be the run dialog. You can add an applet to your panel/bar at the top of your window.
[05:14] <Pikachu_> anyone?
[05:14] <majin_jon> knoppies I installed driver from nvidia site.... might as well install 9.1
[05:14] <pren> hi, i have a strange problem, we have 40 computers in a network, 3 are Ubuntu , for some reason accessing google.com and gmail is super slow on Ubuntu while super fast on the other XP and Mac. i can access bing and yahoo super fast on linux, just not google. strangely if i use a webproxy on linux -google is superfast!
[05:14] <Shwack> judgen -  possibly it is part of the mumble package, I am going to try sudo aptitude purge mumble and see
[05:14] <SeaPhor> blubblub, have you re-installed the drivers for it?
[05:14] <knoppies> majin_jon, I installed the ones from the driver settings in ubuntu. You can install 9.1 if you want. But it might pay off to have a look on the ubuntuforums first.
[05:14] <Roasted> knoppies - one last question for ya... on cairo dock... it doesnt appear to show active windows. How do I set up cairo dock to show active windows that I have open?
[05:15] <judgen> Shwack,  very possible
[05:15] <blubblub> SeaPhor: i didn't know I had to. It was plug and play before.
[05:15] <knoppies> Roasted, do you have cairo-dock 2.0 installed?
[05:15] <Roasted> knoppies - whatever was in the repos, let me check
[05:15] <Pikachu_> anyone know anything about where to
[05:15] <Pikachu_> install the bootloader?
[05:15] <Roasted> knoppies - good call, Im on 1.6.3
[05:16] <aLeSD> how could I enter in the new grub menu ?
[05:16] <majin_jon> knoppies, I've looked... just trying to figure out if others have had that issue currently... very frustraiting
[05:16] <knoppies> Roasted, I think I had to download and build cairo-dock to get 2.0. Im not even sure exactly where I got 2.0 from. I can try have a look.
[05:16] <pren> Pikachu_, usually the mbr, whats your situation like?
[05:16] <SeaPhor> blubblub, redo what you did before, remove all that you did to connect to it before first
[05:16] <Shwack> judgen -  after  2 apt-get --purge autoremove  (mumble and mumble-server)  and sudo aptitude purge (mumble and mumble-server)  I still have said files and folders
[05:17] <blubblub> SeaPhor: i've already tried that :/
[05:17] <blubblub> any other suggestions?
[05:17] <Pikachu_> pren, I have three hard drives. two are being used for xp and the third I'm using for Ubuntu. I've gotten to the past step, and wanted to make sure that the bootloader was being installed in the correct location.
[05:17] <josh_> i can't get my sound working, can anyone help?
[05:17] <majin_jon> knoppies, I was gaming in wine to inc fps
[05:17] <Shwack> josh_ -  possibly, send me a /msg and I'll tell you about my troubles with sound and 9.10
[05:18] <Pikachu_> pren: I get four choices. (hd0) and my three hard drives
[05:18] <pren> Usually it is advised to install to the MBR (defaulty) , MBR is hd0
[05:18] <knoppies> majin_jon, when you say increase, do you mean in comparison to windows? I thought that would decrease fps? from what I understand the drivers are in favour of windows.
[05:18] <Pikachu_> pren: so I go ahead and leave it at hd0. that was the default.
[05:18] <blubblub> could anyone help me get my bluetooth mouse working again? It hasn't been working since the upgrade Jaunty Jackelope
[05:18] <xrfang> hello how do I add php-zlib support on ubuntu server? what is the name of that package please
[05:19] <pren> Pikachu_, the bootlaoder should find your XP and display it as an option when you boot, if it doesn't -dont panic, tehre are easy ways to add XP to the menu
[05:19] <louis> I know its taboo within the community to mention this but if your gonna game its so much easier to use a seperate win partition and thats all I use it for and it runs fine
[05:19] <SeaPhor> blubblub, blutooth in general is really messed up on all linux,,,fresh setup is the only way ,,, if possible
[05:19] <Pikachu_> pren, so I
[05:19] <Pikachu_> install with hd0?
[05:19] <blubblub> i cant reinstall my whole system if that's what you mean
[05:19] <blubblub> seap
[05:20] <blubblub> SeaPhor:
[05:20] <pren> Pikachu_, yes
[05:20] <knoppies> I agree with louis
[05:20] <Bo0m> Greetings All. I've installed Kubuntu latest version. All's working fine but am not sure if my video drivers are installed right. I have a odd feeling about viewing websites using firefox. Can someone help me in regards to making sure my video drivers are fine?
[05:20] <SeaPhor> blubblub, no, not what i meant
[05:20] <majin_jon> knoppies, on the drivers pre gave frames were at 13 ..... after install boosted to 20. compared to windows... I have no comparison this is a laptop I'm talking about
[05:20] <blubblub> SeaPhor: what did you mean then?
[05:21] <knoppies> majin_jon, yea it would be better to have the drivers. Have you tried opening the drivers gui from the terminal? maybe trying it with sudo?
[05:21] <SeaPhor> blubblub, just re-do all that has to do with bluetooth
[05:22] <majin_jon> knoppies, but that is crushed now... hate to reload server+
[05:22] <louis> I mean if your jumping the Ubuntu bandwagon for Gaming your in for a lot of frustrating hours configuring and often times waiting for better support and it can be 6 mo's to a year before the game is playable within wine.
[05:22] <cybie2k> Bo0m: Can you be more specific than "odd feeling"?
[05:22] <knoppies> majin_jon, what do you mean by "that is crushed"?
[05:22] <Roasted> knoppies - I just got cairo dock 2.0 and it works.
[05:22] <majin_jon> fps
[05:23] <blubblub> i have no idea how to do that, and I'm afraid if I tried I may do irrevocable damage.
[05:23] <Psinetic> i'm trying to install camfrog on ubuntu 9.10, it installed with wine fine, but i can't get it to do anything once installed. it just freezes or crashes.
[05:23] <Bo0m> It looks dizzy cybie2k . Sorry I should have been specific

[05:43] <Bo0m> alright it says nvidia 3d driver is not activated
[05:43] <astechgeek> youll need to activate it
[05:43] <judgen> is it possible to get something like DontZap to work on karmic? The gnome keyboard shortcut does not cut it if you run a wine app that crashes in fullscreen.
[05:43] <astechgeek> should give you a version
[05:43] <Bo0m> it gives me 2 options.. one has recomended next to it
[05:43] <blubblub> SeaPhor: what do you mean by "here"
[05:44] <astechgeek> use the higher number
[05:44] <Bo0m> version 185 has recommended next to it
[05:44] <astechgeek> that will be the most recent
[05:44] <astechgeek> yea
[05:44] <pren> Bo0m, if you open a terminal and put this command in you iwll know what card you have :  lspci | grep -i vga
[05:44] <Bo0m> ok pren : let me do that please..
[05:44] <Hiko> It might take a bit for it to download...be patient
[05:44] <blubblub> SeaPhor: I cant afford to pay for another one of these mouses! Do you know how much these things cost???
[05:44] <Hiko> Anyone else having issues with WoW and wine?
[05:44] <Bo0m> thanks a lot guys.. my cousin said you would help.. thanks again
[05:44] <Bo0m> one minute please
[05:45] <SeaPhor> blubblub, i work for HP on the Linux QA testing team
[05:45] <Anumati> Hello, my friend who is on another server is installing ubuntu 9.10 and is not sure what the best format is, ext 2, 3, or 4 - Would anyone like to offer a suggestion?
[05:45] <blubblub> qa?
[05:45] <pren> Bo0m, it;s good to know what card you have, if you have any problems in the future you can google solutions
[05:45] <astechgeek> Bo0m: your using the same one I have, youll use the nvidia configuration once it's installed to mess with the video settings
[05:45] <blubblub> questions and answers?
[05:46] <SeaPhor> blubblub, QA = Quality Assurance
[05:46] <louis> FQA= Fleet Quality Assurance  or it used to
[05:46] <jmark> I upgraded to 9.10 from 9.04 and now I have no output devices for sound, I found that I didn't have a pulse-rt group so I added it and added myself to it, what am I missing, this worked prior to upgrade
[05:46] <astechgeek> mines a Nvidia BFG 8400 gs
[05:47] <Bo0m> i clicked on activate and now trying to copy that command into the terminal... please bear with me
[05:47] <Maarten> Anumati: from what I understand of ext3 and ext4.... ext4 is most efficient on large volumes, so if he is installing a server with say.... 500 Gb of storage, i'd go for ext4. If he is installing a 2 Gb webserver..... go for ext3.
[05:47] <Anumati> Thank you Maarten
[05:47] <blubblub> SeaPhor: but how would i know which BT packages to reinstall?
[05:48] <Maarten> Anumati: that said, ext4 is offered as the default, and it was offered as the default when I made my 12 Gb partition on this laptop I am on
[05:48] <Anumati> I will also pass that along
[05:48] <jmark> did anyone else loose their audio after upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10?

[05:57] <Roasted> How do I set a CUSTOM shortcut in Ubuntu? I know theres the pre defined ones I can change in system - preferences - keyboard shortcuts, but can I make my own?
[05:57] <pren> Bo0m, I use VLC, simple and best

[05:59] <Psinetic> how do you restart wine?
[05:59] <megamanx1978> What has more packages Ubuntu or debian?
[05:59] <d0brii> kill it?
[05:59] <jmark> anyone who can help with audio problems after upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10?
[05:59] <louis> Why's it matter Megaman?
[06:00] <SeaPhor> Psinetic, check #winehq
[06:00] <louis> Ubuntu is a Debian based Distro
[06:00] <megamanx1978> Well more software means more choices
[06:00] <louis> atm the most popular
[06:00] <bigLuke> i think wineboot might do it according to this -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=630811
[06:01] <louis> well you can get pretty much anything on ubuntu you can on Debian
[06:01] <bigLuke> well ubuntu is debian based is it not
[06:01] <kiwifunk> !fstab
[06:01] <Natanaiel> what are dpkg hooks?
[06:01] <d0brii> louis : ubuntu != debian,
[06:01] <apeepz> anyone care to help me setup my squirellmail? would be greatly appreciated.
[06:01] <Jordan_U> megamanx1978: I would say likely Ubuntu simply because it's so popular, but 99.99% of the packages in Ubuntu came directly from Debian
[06:02] <d0brii> 99.9% packages came from opensource foundation
[06:02] <mneptok> apeepz: i'd recommend RoundCube for webmail
[06:02] <megamanx1978> So are you saying you can use all debian packages in ubuntu and vise versa?
[06:02] <Bo0m> Am sorry for asking too many questions here... just wondering if I did the right thing. I have 5 GB for / and 20 GB for /home and 150 for swap.. now when I do df to check disk space it says 60% used on / .. is that okay?? I mean would I need to worry about root space?? thanks again
[06:02] <lstarnes> megamanx1978: not necessarily
[06:02] <pren> megamanx1978, you cant
[06:02] <lstarnes> megamanx1978: dependencies often cause that to fail
[06:03] <d0brii> megamanx1978, yes and no,...
[06:03] <Roasted> How do I set a CUSTOM shortcut in Ubuntu? I know theres the pre defined ones I can change in system - preferences - keyboard shortcuts, but can I make my own?
[06:04] <Natanaiel> what is a dpkg hook?
[06:04] <d0brii> Roasted, : you mean gnome?
[06:04] <Roasted> d0brii - I... guess? I mean, ubuntu is gnome..
[06:04] <ZykoticK9> Bo0m, did you make a 150 GB swap partition?
[06:05] <d0brii> Roasted, : not so much
[06:05] <louis> well got class tomorrow talk to you all later
[06:05] <Roasted> d0brii - ..ubuntu isnt gnome?
[06:05] <The_Doctor> jmark almost everyone who updated has had audio problems. Seems like the only answer right now is a complete new install.
[06:05] <Bo0m> omg sorry ZykoticK9 .. I meant 150 MB swap.. sorry
[06:05] <d0brii> Roasted, : no Gnome is Xwindow manager one of many
[06:05] <ZykoticK9> Bo0m, ok was just checking!
[06:06] <Roasted> d0brii - I know..
[06:06] <d0brii> Roasted, though it is default one
[06:06] <Roasted> d0brii - ubuntu = gnome, kubuntu = kde
[06:06] <Roasted> is what I was getting at :P
[06:06] <btipling> how do I report a bug from the website
[06:06] <Bo0m> I was reading on some site which said its good to have 150 MB swap and 5 gb as / .. now am confused if I should have had more space for /
[06:06] <tol0za> hi,  my project about ubuntu install http://eltoloza.comli.com/tutorial/installUbuntu.htm
[06:06] <btipling> I don't use a gui on ubuntu
[06:06] <d0brii> Roasted, : default window manager is not equal to distro
[06:06] <tol0za> im not speak in english
[06:07] <jmark> The_Doctor: yuck!
[06:07] <Roasted> d0brii - Oh I know, but with *buntu theres a flavor for each default window manager.
[06:07] <mneptok> d0brii: GNOME is a desktop environment, which involves a lot more functionality than just a window manager. Metacity os the window manager in GNOME.
[06:07] <ZykoticK9> jmark, see http://unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/525-resolve-nosound-problem-on-ubuntu910-karmic-koala
[06:07] <The_Doctor> jmark Yep.
[06:07] <btipling> nm found it
[06:07] <ZykoticK9> jmark, you don't need to reinstall!
[06:07] <altf2o> roughly speaking swap is usually good at 1.5-2x installed RAM. For most other things, it's really up to your preference or need. 5GB for / should be ok for most.
[06:07] <Madpilot> The_Doctor, that's exagerating the situation WRT audio more than a bit...
[06:07] <tol0za> hi,  my project about ubuntu install http://eltoloza.comli.com/tutorial/installUbuntu.htm
[06:08] <megamanx1978> I know Ubuntu is Debian based and very similar in alot of ways but what do you think the pros and cons between the two are?
[06:08] <mneptok> megamanx1978: that is offtopic for this channel.
[06:08] <jmark> Zykotick9: I will check that out
[06:08] <Madpilot> altf2o, 5GB would be pretty tight; 8+ is better if you have space
[06:08] <d0brii> mneptok: right,... but that would be way to confusing for someone who is new in ubuntu?
[06:08] <maco> The_Doctor: everyone who upgraded and didnt get an updated menu.lst. this number is in the few-hundred range....out of thousands of upgrades
[06:08] <The_Doctor> Here is a link to three pages on the forum  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1168194
[06:08] <megamanx1978> Well this is about ubuntu
[06:08] <CptnAwesome> hi folks, just installed kubuntu and I dont have b43 firmware, what do i do?
[06:09] <mneptok> d0brii: no more so than saying "a distro is more than a window manager."
[06:09] <altf2o> for many installs you can get away with it. If unsure, i agree go higher. When i partitioned on my own i normally didn't go less than 10GB for each one, leaving /usr and /home the most.
[06:09] <d0brii> anyone has issues with new 9.10 install?
[06:09] <maco> The_Doctor: note also that many of the people who didnt get an updated menu.lst were actually *asked* if they wanted the menu.lst to be updated and they said "NO"
[06:09] <d0brii> mneptok, : I agree,
[06:09] <pren> Bo0m, don't worry about space, if in the future it becomes a problem you can change it with the ubuntu CD
[06:09] <Omlette> CptnAwsome: Try www.linixwireless.org.
[06:09] <Omlette> Er, linuxwireless.org.
[06:09] <Bo0m> ok cool.. thanks pren
[06:09] <d0brii> have
[06:09] <The_Doctor> maco not on these pages
[06:10] <CastilleV> Hey, I was in the ending of the upgrade process when my internet gave out, now its stuck at package 1397, out of 1434. I was able to reconnect, but no luck.
[06:10] <altf2o> d0brii: 64bit freshly installed wouldn't boot past grub for me. 9.10 netbook remix, and 9.10 32bit for Desktops (upgrading 9.04->9.10) have both worked great for me.
[06:10] <maco> The_Doctor: the ones who were not asked have a problem in /etc/kernel-img.conf, a bug that actually existed in 9.04
[06:10] <tol0za> Emerling> uno para cada quien
[06:10] <tol0za> <Em
[06:10] <maco> The_Doctor: as i said a few hundred people
[06:10] <d0brii> altf2o, : what machine?
[06:10] <The_Doctor> maco then meet him for a private chat and fix it.
[06:10] <maco> The_Doctor: my roommate is the audio guy. he has receved 300-400 bug reports of this
[06:11] <tol0za> hi,  my project about ubuntu install http://eltoloza.comli.com/tutorial/installUbuntu.htm
[06:11] <maco> The_Doctor: compared to the number of upgrades...thats probably 2%
[06:11] <gasull> Hi.  I'm installing Ubuntu from the alternate CD on a system that used to have Debian Lenny.  I want to maintain the encrypted LVM partitions that I already have.  How can I do this?  Thank you in advance.
[06:12] <d0brii> it seams that I am one of few that haven't had any issues, btw DELL machine
[06:12] <altf2o> d0brii: netbook remix i installed on my Acer Aspire One netbook (which i'm using now), my desktop workstation is Intel Q6600 based, 2GB RAM\1TB HD\GeForce 8800 GT 512MB
[06:12] <nic1> how can i copy lines from mth line to nth line where i can not count the lines inbetween mth line and nth line? what is the command?
[06:13] <kiwifunk> nic1: wow hahah i dont know what you mean with mth and nth
[06:13] <d0brii> altf2o, : 64 bit version have some drivers issues...
[06:14] <d0brii> altf2o, : though performance difference is very small
[06:14] <altf2o> it worked great from the live CD, but it never booted after install. I gave up after 4 installs
[06:14] <Bo0m> Looks like the driver is installed. Time for me to reboot and hope for the best. Thanks again guys. Will come back and let you guys know what's happening. Thanks again  : )
[06:15] <d0brii> only funny thing is that 9.10 beta was faster than final release
[06:16] <tol0za> hi,  my project about ubuntu install http://eltoloza.comli.com/tutorial/installUbuntu.htm

[06:18] <nintendude794> howdy
[06:18] <pren> Guest93280, do you have windows on your grub list? can you boot into that?
[06:18] <Guest93280> got the list of commands
[06:19] <Guest93280> it's a minimal bash file-line editing.
[06:19] <Guest93280> what do I do?
[06:19] <pren> Guest93280, do you have windows on your grub list? can you boot into that?
[06:19] <Guest93280> no
[06:20] <Guest93280> would boot windows work?
[06:21] <Guest93280> I'm stuck. how to get out?
[06:21] <pren> Guest93280, you just installed Ubuntu right? I think the installation was not succesful, its not a bootloader problem. i would try to reinstall
[06:21] <boxxxy> http://bit.ly/19dPM7
[06:21] <boxxxy> new ubuntu addon
[06:21] <jmark> ZykoticK9: following the instructions on http://unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/525-resolve-nosound-problem-on-ubuntu910-karmic-koala didn't fix my audio issues

[06:21] <Guest93280> I don't know

[06:22] <Guest93280> I unistall
[06:22] <Omlette> !ops | boxxxy
[06:22] <Guest93280> how do I unistall the bootloader? and return to windows?
[06:23] <jmark> 2.6.28-15-generic
[06:23] <pren> Guest93280, did you install ubuntu from a live cd? basically you don't need to unintsall anything , just reinstall, boot from a live cd - come back here and make sure your video card works under linux
[06:23] <Jordan_U> Guest93280: You can either use a windows install CD and "fixmbr" or if you don't have a widnows install CD you can use a tool called super grub disk
[06:23] <jmark> ZykoticK9: 2.6.28-15-generic
[06:23] <ZykoticK9> jmark, wrong kernel still!
[06:24] <pren> Guest93280, i suggest reinstalling ubuntu
[06:24] <Ericthegreat> It worth it to upgrade my ubuntu to the new release, or there many bugs?
[06:24] <Guest93280> pren, I don't want to risk
[06:24] <Guest93280> it. I
[06:24] <jmark> ZykoticK9: what should it be?
[06:24] <pren> Guest93280, what risk are you taking?
[06:24] <Guest93280> I just want to remove this so I can go back to using XP.
[06:24] <ZykoticK9> jmark, 2.6.31 i think
[06:24] <Ericthegreat> It worth it to upgrade my ubuntu to the new release, or there many bugs?
[06:24] <Guest93280> I've got important files
[06:25] <Jordan_U> Guest93280: Did you see my comment?
[06:25] <Guest93280> Jordan_U would I
[06:25] <Guest93280> have to reinsall XP?
[06:25] <pren> Guest93280, firstly - you should always back up important files before you install an OS...second - follow what Jordan_U said....
[06:25] <Jordan_U> Guest93280: No
[06:25] <Ericthegreat> guest although windows is important for many things Id recommend trying linux a bit as it is also very useful for many things/peace of mine (site you think got a virus)
[06:26] <Guest93280> Jordan_U how would I do it?
[06:26] <Ericthegreat> mind*
[06:26] <Roasted> Does anybody use Cairo Dock? I'm trying to get Cairo Dock to NOT animate the icons I hover over in the dock.
[06:26] <jmark> ZykoticK9: is there a way to upgrade that? not sure why it wasn't done as part of the dist-upgrade
[06:26] <Jordan_U> Guest93280: Do you have a windows install CD?
[06:26] <Guest93280> Jordan_U yes
[06:26] <Ericthegreat> It worth it to upgrade my ubuntu to the new release, or there many bugs?
[06:27] <ZykoticK9> jmark, it was SUPPOSE to happen in your upgrade but Grub didn't get the message
[06:27] <CHESLYN> hi guuys
[06:27] <Ericthegreat> meh ill just upgrade anyway
[06:27] <Ericthegreat> hello
[06:27] <Jordan_U> Guest93280: You need to get to the recovery shell and run "fixmbr". I haven't done it myself, you should try asking in ##windows and they can probably give better directions
[06:27] <jmark> ZykoticK9: so maybe the kernel is there but not configured in grub, hmmm, checking
[06:27] <losha> Ericthegreat: unless there's a feature you *need*, I would wait...

[06:29] <hatchetman82> Hi. why are udev rules split across 2 locations (/etc/udev and /lib/udev) and whats the difference between those 2 locations ?
[06:29] <Jordan_U> Guest93280: That won't get windoes booting again
[06:29] <ZykoticK9> jmark, sorry i sent you the wrong link originally   http://drowninginbugs.blogspot.com/2009/10/caveats-for-audio-in-910.html
[06:29] <Guest93280> question grub
[06:29] <death_energy> openssh not runing how to start it?
[06:29] <question> ohhhh ok, I understand now, I thought you had a different error
[06:29] <Natanaiel> what is the difference between MID & UME editions?
[06:29] <Jordan_U> Guest93280: I can help you try to get grub working properly, and if noone in ##windows can help I can try to walk you through restoring the windows boot loader.
[06:30] <purma> how can i make kaffeine use gstreamer instead of xine?
[06:30] <Guest93280> Jordan_U how would I get grub to work properly
[06:31] <jmark> ZykoticK9: my problem now would be i'm not familiar with grub
[06:31] <Jordan_U> Guest93280: Boot from the LiveCD and try installing grub legacy, if you are willing to spend more time I can also try to figure out why grub2 isn't working, but installing grub legacy is fast and will likely get things working
[06:32] <CHESLYN> can anyone tell me how to change my username i know its simple pls !!!
[06:32] <losha> death_energy: have you installed it?
[06:32] <bazhang> CHESLYN, in irc?
[06:32] <Jordan_U> Guest93280: If you aren't booted into a LiveCD now boot into one and join this channel from there
[06:32] <death_energy> its by defaul marked in synaptics
[06:33] <CHESLYN> bazhang: no
[06:33] <Roasted> Does anybody use Cairo Dock? I'm trying to get Cairo Dock to NOT animate the icons I hover over in the dock.
[06:34] <losha> death_energy: what does ls -l /etc/init.d/ssh show?
[06:34] <Jordan_U> jmark: What are you trying to do with grub?
[06:34] <CHESLYN> bazhang: the one i login on my pc
[06:34] <newmember> From the CLI, how can I get ubuntu to discover NIC changes?
[06:34] <death_energy> dont exist
[06:34] <newmember> Right now ubuntu cant see my NIC
[06:34] <Mulder> ubuntu 9.10 cannot seem to find my network printer from System->Administration->Printing->Add New Printer.  i can see the printer and computer talk to each other (http://pastebin.com/m6839edd5) but then the ubuntu printing app decides it cant find a printer anyway
[06:35] <Jordan_U> newmember: Does your NIC show up in lspci?
[06:35] <losha> death_energy: then despite what synaptic says, it's not installed. Try reinstalling...
[06:35] <Mulder> same printer is detected no problem in 9.04
[06:35] <death_energy> sorry im talking about openssl
[06:35] <newmember> lspci is a command?
[06:35] <newmember> sorry to ask
[06:35] <ZykoticK9> Roasted, Cairo-Dock config -- Animated icons - "when hovering an icon" uncheck everything
[06:35] <Natanaiel> what is the difference between MID & UME editions?
[06:35] <Jordan_U> newmember: Yes ( do NOT paste the output from that command into the channel )
[06:36] <death_energy> newmember,  lpic its a certification that offer a non profit organization in skills at linux
[06:36] <newmember> lspci:  command not found
[06:36] <losha> death_energy: sigh. ls -l /usr/bin/openssl
[06:36] <Roasted> Zykotick9 - either Im an idiot, or that doesnt work...
[06:37] <Jordan_U> newmember: Really? Are you sure you typed it correctly?
[06:37] <death_energy> yes it say me something i send to you in private msj
[06:37] <ZykoticK9> Roasted, did you click "apply" at the bottom?
[06:38] <CHESLYN> bazhang: the one i login on my pc
[06:38] <Roasted> zykotick9 - yep...
[06:38] <ZykoticK9> Roasted, don't know then (it certainly is working for me?)
[06:38] <knoppies> Roasted, it works for me, but you have to hit apply.
[06:38] <Roasted> zykotick9 - at first animated icons wasnt checked, so I checked it cause If igured otherwise it wouldnt care what settings I had inside. So I enabled it and unchecked everything inside.
[06:39] <bazhang> CHESLYN, you mean your user login name?
[06:39] <knoppies> Roasted, hmm, sounds weird, it works for me.
[06:39] <Roasted> knoppies - not for me bro :(
[06:39] <bazhang> CHESLYN, system administrations users & groups
[06:39] <knoppies> Roasted, I also have animations off. My PC needs a better vid card.
[06:39] <knoppies> Roasted, the fire animation looks AWSOME though.
[06:40] <Roasted> knoppies - Ill mess around with the animations, I just dont want the dock to expand as I hover over it. I feel like my clicking is very inaccurate then.
[06:40] <newmember> Jordan_U: lspci
[06:40] <newmember> Jordan_U: does that look right
[06:40] <knoppies> Roasted, that setting isnt under animations, its under something else
[06:40] <Jordan_U> newmember: Yes
[06:40] <knoppies> Roasted, I hate that too. Thats what I hate about macs dock as well.
[06:40] <Roasted> knoppies - oh... that's what I've been looking for :P
[06:40] <billybigrigger> anyone here use newsgroups? i need a decent newsreader that supports ssl
[06:40] <knoppies> Roasted, let me go find it quick
[06:40] <billybigrigger> pan doesnt
[06:40] <newmember> I do see the e1000 in the dmesg
[06:40] <mneptok> billybigrigger: Pan
[06:41] <knoppies> Roasted, icons ZOOM EFFECT
[06:41] <billybigrigger> mneptok, pan doesn't support ssl
[06:41] <knoppies> Roasted, set max zoom of icon =1.00
[06:41] <x-Na> I think there aren't that many newsgroups clients
[06:41] <x-Na> pan, thunderbird
[06:41] <freaky[t]> is there anything like quanta für ubuntu?
[06:41] <newmember> Jordan_U: I do see the e1000 in the dmesg
[06:41] <Roasted> knoppies - GAH. AWesome!
[06:41] <x-Na> My ISP killed their newsserver last month
[06:41] <Roasted> knoppies - thx bro
[06:41] <Roasted> again
[06:41] <knoppies> Roasted, you can even reduce the space in which the icons will be effective, and increase space between icons.
[06:41] <Roasted> :P
[06:41] <FloodBot3> Roasted: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:41] <knoppies> Roasted, NO prob. Now go play with the animations, they awsome.
[06:42] <newmember> Jordan_U: I just changed the NIC
[06:42] <Jordan_U> newmember: It shouldn't matter, network interfaces are detected at boot
[06:43] <fbc-mx> Does evolution have built-in bayesian spam filter?
[06:43] <newmember> Jordan_U: I used minimal install so maybe I am missing a few things
[06:43] <Jordan_U> newmember: Ahh
[06:43] <Jordan_U> newmember: Do you have at least the "ubuntu-minimal" package installed?
[06:44] <mneptok> billybigrigger: use stunnel
[06:44] <newmember> Jordan_U: sure, it has been working great for the last week, until I went changed the NIC
[06:44] <newmember> Jordan_U: if by "installed" you mean do I have it running
[06:44] <Madpilot> fbc-mx, install spamassassin, evolution has a plugin to work with that
[06:45] <Jordan_U> newmember: No, it's a package "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-minimal"
[06:46] <oifao> hey who runs this channel?
[06:46] <fbc-mx> Madpilot, I expected something better... That has been the answer since v7.04 when I started with ubuntu. One of the reasons I never used evotion was because setting up the spam filter was a feat.
[06:47] <Jordan_U> tas: Why?
[06:47] <Madpilot> fbc-mx, install spamassassin, make sure the evo spamassassin plugin is enabled (it should be by default) and start marking stuff as Junk...
[06:47] <tas> Jordan_U: because I'm curious, I would like to talk to whoever runs this channel
[06:48] <CHESLYN> bazhang: its empty
[06:48] <Guest93280> got my pc fixed. but no ubuntu.
[06:49] <fbc-mx> Madpilot,  you're telling me it's as easy as that now?? wow... I might switch back from thunderbird... even though it has the lighting plugin that gives it calendaring features.
[06:49] <question> how can I get mp4 support in rhythem box
[06:49] <Jordan_U> tas: You can join #ubuntu-ops but it's not a discussion channel. You can get a lot of information about the ubuntu channels and documetation / source code for the Ubuntu bots on the Ubuntu wiki
[06:51] <Jordan_U> Guest89444: Would you like to try to get Ubuntu booting?
[06:53] <newmember> Jordan_U: Yes ubuntu-minimal is installed
[06:53] <Jordan_U> newmember: You might want pciutils for lspci
[06:54] <newmember> thats not installed
[06:54] <CHESLYN> bazhang: its empty I tried that........is'nt there a command that i can execute
[06:54] <bazhang> CHESLYN, users&groups has no user there?

[06:57] <bazhang> CHESLYN, I'm not understanding you
[06:57] <bazhang> Guest88692, running wine or a particular app
[06:57] <Guest88692> i've installed and uninstalled wine before, and deleted files, probably screwed some stuff up

[07:04] <tas> anyone know much about coroutines in python?  respond tas:
[07:04] <Bo0m> Can someone tell me what  happens if you forget su password?
[07:05] <MFawzy> my cpu usage is VERY high since I upgraded to karmic and I don't know what to do ?
[07:05] <MFawzy> bo0m : just reset it
[07:06] <MFawzy> when loading grub press esc and enter the recovery mood
[07:06] <bazhang> MFawzy, what does top (in terminal ) show using the most ?
[07:06] <Bo0m> MFawzy, : Can you please tell me how? I mean I dont remember creating a password for su while installing ubuntu...
[07:06] <Shwack> MFawzy which process is using all the %
[07:06] <tas> anyone know much about coroutines in python?  respond tas:
[07:06] <bazhang> Bo0m, you should not have a root password to begin with
[07:06] <MFawzy> then drop to root shell then
[07:06] <moderated> join #freenode
[07:06] <MFawzy> type in
[07:06] <bazhang> tas try #python
[07:06] <MFawzy> passwd <usrname>
[07:06] <Bo0m> bazhang, : but I thought we need admin access to install applications?
[07:07] <bazhang> Bo0m, using sudo
[07:07] <Bo0m> sudo and su are different? argh !
[07:07] <Bo0m> MFawzy, : Thanks
[07:07] <bazhang> yep
[07:07] <Bo0m> ok so its sudo apt - get install xine
[07:07] <Shwack> doesn't sudo mean "super user do" ?
[07:08] <bazhang> Bo0m, no space apt-get
[07:08] <Shwack>   sudo apt-get install xine
[07:08] <TheBogey> Shwack, maybe
[07:08] <bazhang> moderated, which irc client?
[07:08] <greezmunkey> Has anyone seen this before? wicd changed this file, breaking it. .ConfigParser.ParsingError: File contains parsing errors: /etc/wicd/wired-settings.conf [line 23]: '[]\n'
[07:08] <MFawzy> bazhang : how to know the most % process ?
[07:08] <bazhang> MFawzy, in top? look at the numbers
[07:08] <Bo0m> ok , am trying to get this right here..  when will anyone use su then?
[07:09] <bazhang> Bo0m, sudo -i on rare occasions, but generally always sudo
[07:09] <MFawzy> ah :) thnx
[07:09] <moderated> this is awesome.
[07:09] <Bo0m> when you do sudo its asking for a password, which password is it??
[07:10] <Bo0m> I mean is it asking for the root's password?
[07:10] <MFawzy> bazhang : most is "gnome-system-mo"
[07:10] <bazhang> moderated, for xchat it is /join #freenode   or simply /j #freenode
[07:10] <MFawzy> and I don't know what this is ? :D
[07:10] <wbmj> Bo0m: It is the password from the first account
[07:10] <bazhang> Bo0m, in what situation? installing something?
[07:10] <Bo0m> bazhang, : yes installing something
[07:11] <bazhang> MFawzy, gnome-system-monitor ?
[07:11] <MFawzy> buzhang after this comes Xorg
[07:11] <bazhang> Bo0m, the sudo pass
[07:11] <WirlynthoN> @}-->---BR?---<--{@
[07:11] <bazhang> !br | WirlynthoN
[07:11] <b3low_m3> Bo0m: you use sudo to obtain elevated privlages that emulate root
[07:11] <MFawzy> buzhang yes I guess the name is truncated :D
[07:11] <b3low_m3> su will log in as root
[07:12] <bazhang> moderated, you still there
[07:12] <b3low_m3> excuse me su -
[07:12] <Bo0m> b3low_m3, : ok I get that, but I never gave a password for root while installing the OS.. so which password is it taking then?
[07:12] <bazhang> b3low_m3, use sudo -i if absolutely necessary , not sudo su
[07:12] <wbmj> Bo0m: It is the password from the first account
[07:12] <MFawzy> buzhang: now most % process is Xorg followed by pidgin !
[07:12] <b3low_m3> its asking for your password
[07:12] <Bo0m> lol am sorry but isnt the first account a user??
[07:13] <wbmj> Bo0m: yes
[07:13] <bazhang> Bo0m, yes, and sudo elevates the user privileges for a short time
[07:13] <Bo0m> then why is it asking users password when it shld be asking admins?
[07:13] <b3low_m3> bazhang if I use su - im logging in as root
[07:13] <moderated> ya, I'm still here. sorry about that.
[07:13] <Bo0m> I see.. so am right in saying there is no password for root while installing, right?
[07:13] <bazhang> b3low_m3, that is so wrong, especially on irc
[07:13] <wbmj> Bo0m: The first installed account has admin privileges in Ubuntu
[07:13] <b3low_m3> it gives you admin rights for that instance
[07:14] <bazhang> Bo0m, correct; just your user (sudo) password

[07:14] <moderated> I'm using x-Chat, it was the first option in the ubuntu lib that caught my eye. You got any other suggestions?
[07:14] <bazhang> moderated, to highlight others in such a busy channel, type the first three or so letters, then hit the tab key and you complete their nickname
[07:14] <kumar> hi, any luck with connecting exchange 2007 to evolution, the evolution irc is dead
[07:15] <moderated> bazhang, thanks!
[07:15] <bazhang> moderated, so for me would be baz <tab> key and it would highlight me
[07:15] <moderated> bazhang, that rules! awesome tip.
[07:15] <bazhang> moderated, there is weechat and irssi if you want to use command line clients
[07:15] <MFawzy> shwack : the %cpu is alternating all the time !
[07:16] <kumar> moderated: I use chatzilla, FF plugin
[07:16] <Bo0m> bazhang, : So the first user created in Ubuntu is admin? I mean if I create a user account for my wife and she has to install a application, its gonna need my password?
[07:16] <moderated> bazhang, gnome enabled is fine... =O)
[07:16] <bazhang> moderated, additionally there is channel #xchat and they have quite good documentation on their site
[07:16] <MFawzy> shwack: but most is pidgin or Xorg :)
[07:16] <Madpilot> Bo0m, you can give new users admin rights
[07:16] <kumar> Bo0m: you can add her to sudoers
[07:16] <ja660k> hey guys, is there a modelling app that can export to sql for relational database's
[07:17] <Bo0m> ok cool.. I will look it up.
[07:17] <Bo0m> thanks : )
[07:17] <bazhang> http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download_main.html moderated here is a nice book on some stuff more broadly ubuntu
[07:17] <moderated> bazhang, thanks for holding my hand. I'm going to add xchat to my fav's.
[07:17] <kumar> Bo0m:  better create a power user group and add your wifi's account to that group
[07:17] <CHESLYN> kumar: how do you add someone to sudoers
[07:17] <Bo0m> yeh will do
[07:18] <josh_> how do I set my tv tuner card on boot?
[07:18] <kumar> CHESLYN: avoid sudoers list, better create a group using GUI and user to that group
[07:18] <wbmj> CHESLYN: sudo nano  /etc/sudoers
[07:18] <bazhang> moderated, to get autojoin on channels, click xchat network list then highlight ubuntu servers and hit edit and add the channels #channel,#channel,#etc to autojoin
[07:18] <kumar> IMHO, dont add anyone to sudoers, create a poweruser group and accounts to it
[07:19] <b3low_m3> for information on a given command you can get the manual page too with man <command>
[07:19] <a-rishi> Is there a way to use only the calendar of Evolution and not the mail part... or do I have to put a email and disallow  it to import or do anything
[07:19] <MFawzy> bazhang: may I PM u ? I just started to get lost in all this :D
[07:19] <moderated> bazhang, awesome
[07:19] <bazhang>  moderated additionally you should consider putting your registered user password in the server login field in xchat preferences so you are logged in automatically when you join irc
[07:19] <CHESLYN> wbmj: what do you mean
[07:19] <Flannel> CHESLYN, kumar, wbmj: Don't use nano.  Use visudo (sudoers even says this).  *never* edit sudoers with something other than visudo.  And yes, don't edit sudoers anyway, just add people to the admin group, which will give them the ability to sudo.
[07:19] <CHESLYN> kumar: thnx
[07:20] <kumar> agree with Flannel
[07:20] <bazhang> moderated, for instance if you get a cloak via #freenode
[07:20] <moderated> bazhang, you've been doing this for a while. I can tell.
[07:20] <kumar> any luck with exchange 2007 and evolution? I dont want to boot into XP
[07:20] <skyl> I want to strip the sounds from an ogv, edit it and then put it back
[07:21] <bazhang> moderated, not very long in truth. not much to know to be honest (just a few commands)
[07:21] <skyl> the sticking point is the stripping right now oddly
[07:21] <skyl> I can do it all but the only way I know to strip requires the full length of the video to get all of the sound
[07:21] <kumar> skyl check audacity, I used it once for editing MP3s and creating primate sound presentation for museum of natural history
[07:21] <moderated> bazhang, Thanks for taking the time.
[07:22] <kumar> skyl, I guess I didnt get you
[07:22] <bazhang> moderated, it's why we are here :)
[07:22] <skyl> mplayer -vo null -ao pcm:file=mysound.wav myvideo0.ogv works to strip out the audio but it ... like plays it .. so my hour long video takes an hour
[07:22] <a-rishi> Sry for asking again, Is there a way to use only the calendar of Evolution and not the mail???
[07:23] <moderated> bazhang, true
[07:23] <kumar> moderated: you should bow down to penguins :P
[07:24] <kumar> so I will take it, no one had any luck with Evolution and Exchange2007
[07:24] <doofy> I can't get samba shares to work.. They are showing up on my mac when I go in to the computer, but for some reason, I am unable to access them. I have tried removing samba and nautilus-share then reisntalling, but it doesnt work

[07:24] <QQ_ghost> not used to the new init... could someone tell me how to permanently set up a driver?
[07:24] <QQ_ghost> it loads, but not conf properly

[07:26] <bazhang> MFawzy, thought your system was using too much cpu
[07:26] <MFawzy> yes
[07:26] <moderated> kumar, dosn't it have an irc plugin?
[07:26] <kumar> I will try it, evolution is the official mail/calendar client for Gnome
[07:27] <MFawzy> bazhang, :) I have tons of process and I don't know which is which :)

[07:27] <CHESLYN> Flannel: thanks so just to know there is no other way
[07:28] <Flannel> CHESLYN: no other way than what?

[07:28] <NoTownKasper> Ubuntu 9.10, I have samba installed, supposedly configured correctly and 2 folders on my NTFS partition shared, yet the other two computers on this home network (Windows Vista machines) can't see me...what am I doing wrong?
[07:28] <moderated> kumar, what's your background? why are ya playing with Exchange?
[07:28] <MFawzy> bazhang, nothing extra since jaunty
[07:29] <MFawzy> bazhang, I'm now on karmic
[07:29] <bazhang> MFawzy, so its not the jaunty intel bug then
[07:30] <CHESLYN> Flannel: thanks just wanted to know
[07:30] <bazhang> MFawzy, are you running compiz? lots of extensions in firefox?
[07:30] <kumar> moderated: I am a developer, my client uses MS Exchange, I have to use web interface to login and web interface time outs :(
[07:30] <moderated> kumar, asp?
[07:30] <MFawzy> bazhang, runing nothing extra but awn ! , but I've using it since jaunty and every thing was great ! I do use compiz and about 4 or 5 extensions :D
[07:31] <bazhang> MFawzy, I would suggest its compiz and awn slowing things down, there are other dock type option out there if you need them
[07:31] <kumar> moderated: I am a PHP guy, no ASP, is the client, their organisation uses MS Exchange as a mail server
[07:31] <inspiron630> how to switch keyboard layout to colemak
[07:31] <CHESLYN> Flannel: so what is visudo?
[07:31] <moderated> kumar, My people! I'm a php developer to.
[07:31] <MFawzy> bazhang, but they were ok while I was on jaunty !
[07:32] <mneptok> kumar: you can use POP or IMAP to speak to Exchange, if the admin has such connectivity enabled.
[07:32] <CHESLYN> Flannel: is it the same as sudo
[07:32] <Flannel> CHESLYN: Its an editor that protects your sudoers file from syntax errors.  But really, you don't need to edit it to add people, just add them to the admin group.
[07:32] <moderated> kumar, run any websites?
[07:32] <kostkon> kumar, have you googled for any good how-to?
[07:32] <kumar> moderated: kool, how do I check if admin has enable POP or IMAP?
[07:32] <bazhang> MFawzy, not sure as I dont use compiz on my intel
[07:33] <doofy> I'm trying to access samba shares I've created in ubuntu, everything is showing up on remote computers (an my local one), but when I try to open the actual shared folders i get errors such as unable to mount location. failed to mount windows share
[07:33] <kumar> moderated: I run wehostlampsites.com and my own blog, kumarchetan.com
[07:33] <MFawzy> bazhang, I forgot to tell u that using another kernel is faster but I couldn't log in to my user ! I only logged in to another 1 :)
[07:33] <NoTownKasper> Ubuntu 9.10, I have samba installed, supposedly configured correctly and 2 folders on my NTFS partition shared, yet the other two computers on this home network (Windows Vista machines) can't see me...what am I doing wrong?
[07:33] <bazhang> MFawzy, which kernel would that be?
[07:33] <doofy> NoTownKasper, ha looks like I'm having the same problem
[07:33] <kumar> moderated: I googled for evolution and exchange, gotta google for connect exchange using IMAP
[07:34] <MFawzy> well I'm not sure of the n# but it was older than the latest one anyway :D
[07:34] <PaperBoy>  now that karmic loads X early in the booting proccess..  its a pain to make it stop so it loads.   Is X being damaged when lets say i do sudo shutdown -r now ?  i mean does it stop  it dead in its tracks?   is X doing its natural rebooting  or ... what happens?
[07:34] <NoTownKasper> doofy: I don't know, I can access my shared folders from the machine they're stored on, the remote machines that can't see it. lol
[07:34] <ageeb> can anyone suggest a program like mathematica that is free?
[07:35] <Madpilot> Gah. What's the code for forcing update-manager to behave nicely? gconf-something... I want my update icon back, not this popup crap.
[07:35] <moderated> kumar, you could use http://phpmailer.worxware.com/index.php?pg=phpmailer
[07:36] <CHESLYN> Flannel: ok
[07:36] <staaleu> Whats the easiest way to set up a mail server that forwards all incoming mail to my user accounts mailbox (it's for app testing)?
[07:37] <kbp> I have a question: if I remove a hdd with ubuntu 9.04 and plug in another system (let say: remove from Core 2 Duo system and plug in Intel Atom system), can it work straight away? (I don't want to wipe out the hdd and re-install everything from scratch again.)
[07:37] <kbp> *plug it in
[07:38] <kumar> moderated: actually, I am on Ubuntu and I want to download my mails from exchange server using Evolution or any other client as I would normally do on XP using Outlook
[07:38] <moderated> kumar, it handles smtp, pop, and sendmail out the box. The function is setup so you could easily switch between smtp, etc if one dosn't work.
[07:38] <moderated> kumar, sorry I miss understood your msg.
[07:38] <kbp> staaleu: control your domain name and point it to Google Apps for mail service, any other services are pointed to your server
[07:39] <kumar> moderated: you dont need to be sorry, I may have not been clear enough
[07:40] <NoTownKasper> Ubuntu 9.10, I have samba installed, supposedly configured correctly and 2 folders on my NTFS partition shared, yet the other two computers on this home network (Windows Vista machines) can't see me...what am I doing wrong?
[07:40] <eagles0513875> hey guys im having some issues with samba on ubuntu server 9.10
[07:40] <moderated> kumar, if you have access but is't intermittent I'm not sure.
[07:40] <NoTownKasper> heh...Samba is a popular topic tonight. :P
[07:40] <eagles0513875> i have everythign configured according to the help page, but for some reason its not liking where i have my share. also it seems like i have no rw access
[07:40] <kumar> NoTownKasper: you are still using Windows Vista thats wrong :P
[07:41] <eagles0513875> kumar: he aint the only one
[07:41] <NoTownKasper> kumar: Isn't my idea...my mother and father's computers.
[07:41] <eagles0513875> im trying to back up my data so i can downgrade to xp granted i will only be using have the amount of ram i have in here till i get 64bit 7
[07:41] <kumar> eagles0513875: NoTownKasper that ws a bad joke, dont take it otherwise
[07:41] <eagles0513875> kumar: its true windows vista is wrong though
[07:41] <A-Rishi> Ok now on Xchat how do you disable the user notifications
[07:41] <NoTownKasper> kumar: Funny thing is, I totally agree with you, but there's nothin' I can do about it. lol
[07:42] <staaleu> kbp, thanks for the tip, but I set up postfix with localmail only seems to work for my purpose.
[07:42] <bazhang> A-Rishi, settings --> preferences ?
[07:42] <kumar> NoTownKasper: you know my bro in law prefres Ubuntu to XP and he didnt even know how to attach a file in gmail
[07:42] <moderated> don't try coping more then 1gig of data between Vista and XP using a drive share. It crashes every time.
[07:42] <newmember> How can I install lspci from cdrom?
[07:43] <kumar> moderated: I may try thunderbird and I will also google for connecting to exchange using IMAP
[07:43] <A-Rishi> bazhang, nothing there
[07:44] <bazhang> A-Rishi, are you referring to the flashing when you are highlighted? or something other
[07:44] <A-Rishi> bazhang: ok got it, Had to use "/set irc_conf_mode on"
[07:44] <songer> hello
[07:45] <songer>  is there any one that knows avidemux?
[07:45] <Silent_Echo> question to the room: does ubuntu need a defragmenter or some sort of program to upkeep/matnance the data?
[07:45] <llutz> Silent_Echo: no
[07:45] <moderated> kumar, Exchange should support IMAP. With google gmail being free for up-to 50 users why aren't they using that instead of spending bux on MS fluff ware?
[07:45] <bazhang> songer, possibly, why not ask you real question
[07:46] <Nautilus> does Synaptic play nice with apt-get? IOW, can I do things both ways (as a noob)  and they dont get confused? Something installed one way shows via the other way, etc?
[07:46] <llutz> Silent_Echo: actually you can't defragment ext2/3/4-FS. you'd have to copy all your data on a fresh created fs to do so
[07:46] <kumar> moderated: if I find answer for this question, it will solve the biggest mystery, why enterprises and corporations use MS products
[07:47] <bazhang> Nautilus, yes of course they do
[07:47] <songer> ok, I want to convert videos from youtube, but it says save (A=V) will generate bad avi. save audio will work
[07:47] <Nautilus> :)
[07:47] <kumar> Nautilus: apt-get and synaptic install stuff to same drive and update same database
[07:48]  * Nautilus has been looking in synaptic for nxserver(?) but cant find it.
[07:48] <newmember> root
[07:48] <bazhang> songer, flv to avi?
[07:48] <kumar> Nautilus: so if u apt-get some thing synaptic will show it installed and you can remove it using synaptic
[07:48] <Nautilus> kumar: nice, glad to hear
[07:48] <eagles0513875> moderated: they could also replace exchange with dovecot on linux
[07:48] <moderated> kumar, It's white lableable and ad's only show using the gmail web interface. It's a free enterprise mail solution!? People are goofy.
[07:48] <Artiosgr> hi
[07:48] <songer> mp4
[07:48] <moderated> kumar, true.
[07:49] <eagles0513875> !multimedia
[07:49] <Artiosgr> kanenas ellinas;
[07:50] <bazhang> !gr | Artiosgr
[07:50] <kumar> ok buddies, I also need to work, I get paid for working and I have invested more than one hour in IRC, all hail open source :-)
[07:50] <songer> bazhang, flv to mp4
[07:51] <moderated> eagles0513875, true. but with group gmail google pays for all the email bandwidth, server hardware, and it has uber uptime.
[07:51] <bazhang> songer let me check something
[07:51] <eagles0513875> moderated: google charges though if they want to have it with their own domain instead of @gmail.com
[07:51] <Nautilus> if anyone knows offhand how I can install nxserver via synaptic or exact apt-get cmd, I'd appreciate it, otherrwise I'll do more reading tomorrow.
[07:51] <Artiosgr> hi
[07:52] <Artiosgr> hi
[07:52] <eagles0513875> !hi | Artiosgr
[07:52] <Artiosgr> ellinika kanenas;
[07:52] <moderated> eagles0513875, nope. it's free for upto groups smaller then 50 users.
[07:52] <ageeb> anyone familiar with any programs like Mathematica for use with linux?
[07:52] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1247868 songer
[07:53] <moderated> eagles0513875, the standard account is ad driven but the ads only show up if you use the gmail web interface. If you use it for just a mail server and connect using smtp, imap, or pop you don't see the ads.
[07:53] <milligan_> Um, I'm running kill -9 as root on a process, but it's not dieing. How can I kill the damn thing?
[07:54] <eagles0513875> moderated: true
[07:54] <Linuxrevolution> hi all
[07:54] <eagles0513875> Milligan: you try kill -15 on the process 9 allows it to clean up before killing it
[07:55] <eagles0513875> !hi | Linuxrevolution
[07:55] <Linuxrevolution> I can't connect my mobile to PC
[07:55] <Linuxrevolution> eagles0513875: hi mate
[07:55] <songer> ok, thanks
[07:55] <songer> bazhang
[07:55] <bazhang> songer, yes
[07:57] <songer> see you around
[07:57] <moderated> eagles0513875, it's more stable then dreamhost's email servers that for sure and its free.
[07:57] <eagles0513875> moderated: dovecot is as well
[07:57] <moderated> eagles0513875, true
[07:57] <llutz> eagles0513875: change -15 / -9 and you're right
[07:58] <eagles0513875> llutz: ahhh my bad but he said hes trying -9 and its not dying
[07:58] <moderated> anyone try replacing BASH with PHP?
[07:58] <eagles0513875> seems like his process is in an infinite loop
[07:58] <llutz> zombie maybe?
[08:00] <doofy> anyone have an idea why samba shares would be visible from others and from my local computer, but they aren't accesible?
[08:01] <eagles0513875> doofy: they working for me after some time
[08:01] <ahox> doofy, check the access rights
[08:01] <doofy> eagles0513875, did you do anything in particular?
[08:01] <kxaz> anyone have ubuntu/kubuntu 9.10 and have problems with sound?
[08:01] <llutz> doofy: check samba-logs
[08:01] <eagles0513875> doofy: not really are you trying to access from xp or vista machine
[08:01] <iceroot> !anyone | kxaz
[08:01] <doofy> eagles0513875, I'm doing it from the machine itself right now!
[08:02] <doofy> ahox, i have them set to allow guests
[08:02] <eagles0513875> doofy: yes
[08:02] <eagles0513875> doofy: my problem turned out where i had the share folder
[08:03] <eagles0513875> i had it in /home/user/share instead i put it in /srv/samba/share and sudo chown nouser.nogroup /srv/samba/share
[08:03] <ahox> doofy, i meant the file rights, if the samba process does not have access to the files, it can not serve them
[08:04] <doofy> ahox, currently 777 on one of the folders ;)
[08:04] <eagles0513875> doofy: follow this link https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html i pretty much followed that and its working for me
[08:04] <KingDong_> hey all has anyone found a fix for slow internet on 9.10?
[08:04] <KingDong_> Also is there any other tools beside mii-ttols and ethtool to config nic

[08:07] <doofy> llutz, yea looked at /var/log/samba/log.smbd... nothing particularly interesting
[08:08] <rlo> Is there a command that displays a log in the terminal window, and updates the window as the log updates? Or do you just keep having to type in "tail foo.log" over and over?
[08:08] <llutz> rlo:  tail -f

[08:25] <NoTownKasper> Ubuntu 9.10, I have samba installed, supposedly configured correctly and 2 folders on my NTFS partition shared, yet the other two computers on this home network (Windows Vista machines) can't see me...what am I doing wrong?

[08:25] <q0_0p> can someone here guide me in patching the kernel?
[08:25] <kostkon> ramandv, amd64 means 64bit in general. it's just the arch that is called like this
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: if you run    smbtree     can you see the shares?
[08:26] <KingDong_> can anyone please answer my question is there an other tools to config your nic beside mii-tools and ethtool?
[08:26] <polis> I should partition the area of 50 1 gig for Ubuntu, when space I put to root and home?
[08:26] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: No, but I can see their machines listed...
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> KingDong_: ifconfig can do it or /etc/network/interfaces
[08:27] <KingDong_> but it cant config duplex
[08:27] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: then its not configured right
[08:27] <mataks> help pls.. what's the command in the terminal to edit the video modes? something like /X11/confg sumthing like that

[08:27] <polis> I should partition the area of 50 1 gig for Ubuntu, when space I putin giga to root and home?
[08:28] <joakim> mataks: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf with your favourite editor (for example gedit or nano, vi)

[08:30] <Jari--_> I ran Ubuntu on USB stick yesterday on my Acer ZG5... now after it, it now gives only a black screen at the start up, no sounds, no hd activity... could it be possible the Ubuntu harmed the BIOS? or other hardware.
[08:30] <kostkon> ramandv, do you have really use 64bit ubuntu or the 32bit ver?
[08:30] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, 54MB half? You're talking wireless right?
[08:30] <llutz> ramandv: load the amd64-version
[08:30] <kostkon> really have*
[08:30] <KingDong_> I need to set to full for some reason 9.10 set it that way and now webbrowsing is painful
[08:30] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: no...
[08:30] <polis>  I should partition the area of 50 1 gig for Ubuntu, when space I putin giga to root and home?
[08:30] <KingDong_> yes greeze
[08:30] <KingDong_> greezmonkey
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: worth a try
[08:30] <kostkon> ramandv, killed the sentence. anyway, 32 or 64bit ubuntu?
[08:30] <joakim> 08:59 < judgen> hmm ign visar info om spelet, men developer sidan verkar vara  borta... synd som tusan.
[08:30] <joakim> 08:59 < yeager> HeMan, min burk har låst sig flera gånger.. nu kom det visst en uppdatering i -proposed
[08:30] <joakim> blah wrong button
[08:31] <dtopala> How can I configure X to start listening on 6000 port ? from the running preocesses I see :/usr/bin/X :0 -br -verbose -auth /var/run/gdm/auth-for-gdm-gPsRaG/database -nolisten tcp vt7
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> polis: 10Gb /, 1xRAM for swap, rest for home is my recommendation
[08:31] <dtopala> I'm on Ubuntu 9.10
[08:31] <Dravekx> is there a program where I can see users and groups and assign them for ubuntu server?
[08:31] <KingDong_> greezmonkey it the only thing I can figure out as when on Jaunty it was my nice fast spped, but now it slow as heck
[08:31] <polis> tahanks action
[08:31] <polis> tanks action
[08:31] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: ...well, it couldn't kill the process because it doesn't exist...then it started it back up again. lol. But shouldn't it have started automagically upon reboot?
[08:32] <Pranky>  How to rename harddisk partition in ubuntu 9.10
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: sure but samba should work and its not so we need to investigate don't we
[08:32] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, what tells you it's 54MB half?
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> !label | Pranky
[08:32] <polis> action file system ext3 o 4
[08:32] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: Indeed.
[08:32] <losha>  /quir
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> polis: i'd investigate that for your own needs

[08:33] <ramandv> kostkon: uname -a  "Linux v-ubuntu 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:04:26 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux"
[08:33] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: i can send you my smb.conf if you like, its the CLI way of doing it (much easier imho), you should also run: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER    and type the logon password as your samba password
[08:33] <kostkon> Ranakah, 32bit then
[08:33] <llutz> ramandv: so you nee 32bit-version to load
[08:34] <kostkon> ramandv, that's why you can't install it. it's for 64bit systems only
[08:34] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: I'd rather not have a password involved if possible...
[08:34] <kostkon> ramandv, i mean the package
[08:34] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, aren't wireless nics half duplex by nature, I mean other than hardware that is specifically set up to use multipath like N? I admit I should probably read up on that more...
[08:34] <ramandv> llutz: how can i figure out the processor or os is 64 bit or 32 bit?
[08:34] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: i can send my config, its easy to read
[08:34] <polis> action,I wanted to know the file system I put ext3
[08:35] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: http://pastebin.com/f1a2fd9ca
[08:35] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: Feel free...but just a warning...all of this is completely over my head...I'm just somewhat decent at bluffing my way through. lol
[08:35] <arussel> using a packaged eclipse, where am I supposed to put the eclipse configuration ? (the info put in eclipse.ini usually)
[08:35] <kostkon> ramandv, your cpu is 64bit but you use the 32bit ver of ubuntu
[08:35] <ActionParsnip> polis: if you want to use ext3 then use it
[08:35] <polis> ok tnks
[08:35] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: if you scroll to the the bottom you will see its very human readable
[08:35] <KingDong_> I dont believe they are, but as I said greezmoneky I cant see nothing else wrong. Since 9.10 I cant use ethtool internet and webbrowsing painfully slow
[08:36] <blurry> ActionParsnip: if you want a passwordless samba share, why not just use a fat partition?  most everything can mount fat
[08:36] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: the name in the brackets is the share name, the rest is obvios
[08:36] <ramandv> llutz: kostkon :  where can i get the lib32nss-mdns
[08:36] <ActionParsnip> blurry: fat is ridiculously non-robust
[08:36] <blurry> ActionParsnip: robust enough to be a holding pen.
[08:37] <polis> After hello
[08:37] <ActionParsnip> blurry: robust to lose data on hard power offs without graceful unmount
[08:37] <KingDong_> All I want is a tool to config my nic duplex you think linux would have a ton
[08:37] <blurry> ActionParsnip: most things do fail if you unplug them, i agree.
[08:37] <llutz> blurry: using fat wouldn't solve samba-problems, because the fs wouldn't be mounted direct
[08:37] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, have you run a tcpdump to see if there is anything else getting in the way, retrans, etc. Then there's always driver issues. What type of wireless card?
[08:38] <kostkon> ramandv, i think this is what you need to install: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libnss-mdns
[08:38] <kostkon> ramandv, libnss-mdns
[08:38] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: Hrm...looking at your smb.conf, I decided to check mine...my 'shared' folders aren't listed anywhere in there...yet nautilus seems to think they're shared just fine. :\
[08:38] <blurry> llutz: can't the file be manipulated while it's in the fat partition?
[08:38] <kostkon> ramandv, use synaptic or just sudo apt-get install libnss-mdns
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: i'm not sure where the gui method keeps the share method, i always go old school
[08:39] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: I try to avoid messing with .conf files whenever possible...gives me a bloody headache every eim.
[08:39] <NoTownKasper> *time
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: if you use my file as a template, you can change the data to match what you wish to share
[08:39] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, are you useing firefox?
[08:40] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: I could...but I would really rather use the GUI...
[08:40] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: then you will hate linux when you get a little deeper, there isnt a pretty gui for everything
[08:40] <Peon42> anyone on that can help me with my raid 5?
[08:40] <llutz> blurry: remote computers only see a share, independent of the FS the share originally has
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: keep it as a backup, if the gui turns out to suck you can always fall back on it
[08:41] <blurry> llutz: exactly
[08:41] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: And we could debate whether or not that's the biggest reason linux will never surpass windows as a desktop machine. ;) Seriously though, looks like I don't have much choice.
[08:41] <ce_atmosphere> moshi2
[08:41] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, This may help...http://en.opensuse.org/Disable_IPv6_for_Firefox
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: why does it ave to surpass it?
[08:42] <skyl> NoTownKasper desktops for dummies
[08:42] <blurry> llutz: but that doesn't address the read/write issues across different filesystems.  so there're things like ntfs3g and samba/ldap
[08:42] <blurry> when a fat partition does all of that inherently
[08:42] <spongebob> hi guys, what package did hardy had that makes me able to use my se phone for internet. I can just plug it in, select "Phone Mode"  and I'm connected in Hardy, but come Jaunty it doesn't work.
[08:42] <ce_atmosphere> may i get some help ?
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: theres always this Linux vs windows and it just doesnt exist. If linux suits your needs better than windows, use it, if windows suits them better, use windows
[08:42] <skyl> as long as you are dumb and wealthy, then you might as well not use a computer but if you do use one, don't use linux
[08:43] <KingDong_> greezmonkey yes firefox
[08:43] <spongebob> ah... too late. I'm running out of internet time.
[08:43] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: if it did "surpass it" then what happens? Nothing will change at all
[08:43] <mosta> can some 1 help me in samba .. iwanna share a file
[08:43] <KingDong_> and Ive done that greeze thx though
[08:43] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, try this, worked for me: http://en.opensuse.org/Disable_IPv6_for_Firefox
[08:43] <petx> hi... I'm new... can somebody tell me how to install cairo dock??
[08:43] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: think about it
[08:44] <greezmunkey_> don't let the url fool you, it's all the same.
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> !info cairo-dock
[08:44] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: Linux suits my needs better by being more secure...and frankly, performing faster with almost everything I do...and by being tons cheaper...but this whole, "If you don't know how to do such-and-such via command line, go back to windows." attitude, bugs the hell out of me.
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> petx: sudo apt-get install cairo-dock
[08:44] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, perform the proceedure, then restart FF, ok.
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: sometimes there isnt an alternative
[08:44] <Peon42> I've been running a raid5 for several months, but last week 4 drives went down(Power), thats fixed but I can't seem to get the raid to mount again... Any suggestions?
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: if an action doesnt have a gui, you are free to create your own
[08:45] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: If I was good enough to create my own GUI, I wouldn't need one. lol
[08:45] <kholerabbi> how can I use gnome-shell  on startup and not load gnome-panel, compiz etc.?
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: then you have a catch22
[08:45] <blurry> Peon42: mknod?
[08:46] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: Story of my life. lol
[08:46] <KingDong_> greezmoneky it litterally take like 20 sec for google to load
[08:46] <KingDong_> it very painful
[08:46] <KingDong_> lol
[08:46] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, did you disable ipv6?
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: looks like you'll just haveto suck it up, you'll learn more about the OS if you mess with config files
[08:46] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: I don't want to learn more about the OS...I just want it to do what I tell it to. lmao. Yes, I'm lazy.
[08:46] <KingDong_> yeah Ive done that
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: your call
[08:47] <KingDong_> and the usually tweaks
[08:47] <greezmunkey_> You restart it?
[08:47] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: not learning is stopping you from doing what you want to do though
[08:47] <q0_0p> anyone here know how to patch the kernel?
[08:47] <iceroot> everything from main-repo is GPL? or are there other free licences too?
[08:47] <KingDong_> yep yep
[08:47] <greezmunkey_> Yea, after disabling ipv6, restart FF
[08:47] <blurry> q0_0p: is there a kernel wedge tool?
[08:47] <Peon42> mdadm
[08:47] <llutz> q0_0p: get kernel-source, get a patch, read "man patch"
[08:47] <greezmunkey_> Oh, still no good, huh
[08:47] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: Actually, a flaw in the implimentation of the GUI I was using to tell it to do what it's supposed to do, is what's keeping it from doing what I told it to do.
[08:48] <KingDong_> naw
[08:48] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: log a bug then, it will be attended. in the meantime you will ave to workaround
[08:48] <KingDong_> maybe Ill just go nack to Juanty
[08:48] <q0_0p> llutz, if i have kernel 2.6.30.7 can i use patch 2.6.30.9?
[08:48] <KingDong_> it work flawless for me
[08:48] <petx> ActionParsnip, I have install the cairo dock, so what should I do then??
[08:48] <Skynet> buongiorno a tutti/e
[08:48] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, have you cehcked the interface (ifconfig) to see if you are taking errors?
[08:49] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: Indeed, and I'll be using it until I figure out how to get the GUI to do it. And thanks for putting up with my stubbornness. lol
[08:49] <greezmunkey_> checked
[08:49] <kostkon> petx, run it
[08:49] <ActionParsnip> petx: launch it from the applications menu
[08:49] <littledigger> Hi again
[08:49] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: its your system dude. I can only advise via irc
[08:49] <xxgreenxx> эх человеки
[08:49] <petx> ActionParsnip, it said: warning :  (cairo-dock.c:main:433)
[08:49] <petx>   couldn't create directory /root/.config/cairo-dock
[08:49] <littledigger> I have followed the factoid
[08:49] <llutz> q0_0p: last time i did that, is ages ago and i needed .8 too
[08:49] <kostkon> petx, root?
[08:50] <littledigger> it did not help
[08:50] <petx> kostkon,
[08:50] <petx> kostkon, yess
[08:50] <littledigger> this is a fresh copy of 9.10 ubuntu 64 bit
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> petx: are you logged on as root?
[08:50] <KingDong_> greez let me check
[08:51] <NoTownKasper> ActionParsnip: ...And, as a followup...I'm a moron. The GUI works fine...I just forgot to perform the required actions as root.
[08:51]  * NoTownKasper facepalms and hangs his head in shame...
[08:51] <littledigger> it just loads back to the boot screen say GRUB
[08:51] <petx> ActionParsnip, yes,, and I run it in root
[08:51] <littledigger> and itś just sits there
[08:51] <ActionParsnip> NoTownKasper: i see
[08:51] <ActionParsnip> petx: why?
[08:51] <littledigger> help?
[08:51] <dtopala> How can I configure X to start listening on 6000 port ? from the running preocesses I see :/usr/bin/X :0 -br -verbose -auth /var/run/gdm/auth-for-gdm-gPsRaG/database -nolisten tcp vt7
[08:52] <billy> how do u get a 1024x768 resolution when 800x600 is the max available
[08:52] <NoTownKasper> Well, now that my shipment of fail has arrived, I'll be going now. :\ Mahalo, and thanks again.
[08:52] <ActionParsnip> petx: running a dock as root is really unnecessary
[08:52] <KingDong_> billy get a better vid card?
[08:52] <KingDong_> lol
[08:52] <petx> ActionParsnip, kostkon, sry.. you mean by run it in terminal...??
[08:52] <KingDong_> greezmonkey this what I get http://pastebin.com/m22e8a4e7
[08:52] <ActionParsnip> petx: no, run it from the applications meu. You should NOT log on as root
[08:53] <indus> billy max available where? in display setting? which is your card
[08:53] <billy> yes
[08:54] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, looks clean to me dude...
[08:54] <KingDong_> yeah i know!
[08:54] <i_is_broke> look at System>Administration>Hardware Drivers.. then lshw -C video,   then lspci |grep VGA
[08:54] <KingDong_> lol driving me nuts
[08:54] <kostkon> petx, i just realised that you are logged as root. why did you enable the root user?
[08:54] <ActionParsnip> petx: you should log on as your user and run your system, logging on as root is not supported
[08:54] <KingDong_> guess I could just go back to Jaunty
[08:55] <greezmunkey_> What about drivers then, I ran into some issues when I loaded 9.10. found some posts that helped. what type of card do you have?
[08:55] <petx> ActionParsnip, kostkon, oh, sry I didnt understand yet, but I logged on as a user.. now the cairo is running... thx.. ^^
[08:55] <littledigger> Hello?
[08:56] <kostkon> petx, :)
[08:56] <littledigger> I am having the same Dramas with 9.10 installation
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> petx: groovy :). you probably had some sudo -s going on so the ~ is /root rather than /home/$USER
[08:56] <littledigger> I followed the factoid
[08:56] <smwn> ActionParsnip....is ubuntu master
[08:56] <littledigger> but it didnt help
[08:56] <billy> 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device
[08:56] <littledigger> it just went back to just hanging in grub
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> smwn: not really, just no a lot of the basic stuff that folks ask in here all the time
[08:57] <smwn> take a compliment
[08:57] <smwn> your good
[08:57] <ActionParsnip> smwn: thanks man :)
[08:57] <greezmunkey_> KingDong, I'd like to sit up and tweak on this with you, but I have to get up in the morning...g'night.
[08:57] <littledigger> can someone help me
[08:57] <Scorch2> I have a weird problem. I began with Ubuntu 9.04 a few months ago. When I d/l 9.10 ( a 5 hour experience) it did not install and just now I see that I am actually running Ubuntu 8.10
[08:57] <Scorch2> What's wrong?
[08:57] <littledigger> I tried to install 9.10
[08:58] <littledigger> it reboots but sits in command prompt saying ´Grub´
[08:58] <Shwack> littledigger -   did you do an upgrade or fresh install?
[08:58] <littledigger> fresh
[08:58] <billy> it doesnt give me the 1024x768 opyion
[08:58] <littledigger> tried 5 times
[08:58] <billy> option
[08:58] <Shwack> did 9.04 work for you?
[08:59] <littledigger> yes
[08:59] <indus> !who | billy
[08:59] <sobersabre> hi.
[08:59] <billy> k
[08:59] <Shwack> 9.10 i believe (could be wrong) is ext4 by default - that is one diff. it also uses grub2 instead of grub - that is another diff between upgrading and fresh installs
[08:59] <Shwack> I would consider installing 9.04 and upgrading
[08:59] <Scorch2> Did anyone see my question?
[08:59] <sobersabre> I am thinking of backing up my whole system partition by partition.
[08:59] <indus> Scorch2: yes i did
[08:59] <indus> Scorch2: so whats up
[08:59] <sobersabre> but, I want to be able to grow partitions, and still restore from backup.
[08:59] <littledigger> so how do I fix it
[09:00] <Scorch2> Cool. Can help?
[09:00] <littledigger> i don
[09:00] <indus> Scorch2: can try
[09:00] <littledigger> dont have much knowledge on linux
[09:00] <sobersabre> I consider dd if=/dev/sdaX of=devdump.rootfs
[09:00] <llutz> sobersabre: backup to  tar-archives or use rsync, don't use images
[09:00] <Shwack> make a 9.04 install cd from an .iso image - boot your comp from that CD and do a fresh 9.04 install
[09:00] <indus> Scorch2: but please use my nick in messages or it wont highlight and ill miss it
[09:00] <Scorch2> How did 9.04 suddenly turn into 8.10 during 9.10 install???
[09:00] <Shwack> then upgrade to 9.10 after you have everything working
[09:00] <billy> indus:it doesnt give me the 1024x768 option
[09:00] <Scorch2> Sorry indus
[09:00] <z_tau> Hi.  A friend just installed 9.10 with an ATI card, but after changing the settings in Catalyst Control Centre to what he wants, after rebooting they revert back to how they were.  Any ideas what the problem is?
[09:00] <indus> Scorch2: its not possible, maybe you really had only 8.10
[09:01] <littledigger> okay
[09:01] <Shwack> Also: these are just random suggestions
[09:01] <aldin> hi, how can i set interface to get ip from dhcp and to use manualy inserted nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf? i edited /etc/network/interfaces for dhcp IP but with this option my /resolv.conf is automaticaly modified with dhcps nameservers
[09:01] <sobersabre> llutz: do you mean to simply tar zcf rootfs.tgz / <with exclusions>  ?
[09:01] <Shwack> i'm not in the position to give you official advice
[09:01] <sobersabre> will that preserve symlinks, etc. ?
[09:01] <littledigger> but will doing fresh install from 9.04 to 9.10 wipe out 9.10
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> littledigger: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-grub-2-on-ubuntu-9.04
[09:01] <sobersabre> and can I rsync locally ?
[09:01] <Shwack> I've just noticed you aren't receiving any other answers/suggetsions so I'm telling you what I would try
[09:01] <llutz> sobersabre: kinda, yes
[09:01] <littledigger> sorry wipe out .+.10
[09:01] <Scorch2> Indus:Nope. I was a fresh install on new sys. Worked great for 3 months - until I d/l 9.10
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> littledigger: you could run the updates in the live CD (if you have the RAM), it may help
[09:01] <Shwack> depending on how you do it
[09:01] <Shwack> Youc ould tell the installer to install 9.04 side by side
[09:02] <Shwack> or you could delete the partition and start new
[09:02] <llutz> sobersabre: rsync works local too, yes
[09:02] <MarkTraceur> Hey, does anyone know if there's a simple-ish VNC solution available in the reositories? I've used Hamachi until now, but it seems that it's gone Windoze-exclusive, so I'd kind of like something that's still supported...
[09:02] <indus> Scorch2: can we see output of  uname -a
[09:02] <littledigger> how come 9.10 won; just run from fresh install
[09:02] <llutz> aldin: modify your dhclient.config
[09:02] <Boulevardie> Could someone please help me, I was using ubuntu to write an essay, a freak power outage occured, and now a good chunk of my essay is gone. I'd set up abiword to autosave every five minutes, but I can't find the "backup" of my essay anywhere. Could the part of my essay, which was presumably autosaved before the power outage still be salvaged or is it lost?
[09:02] <littledigger> is there something wrong with the iso
[09:02] <Bryce1> is there a way to completely reinstall/reset grub2?
[09:02] <Boulevardie> oops, I mean replace ubuntu with abiword
[09:02] <indus> billy try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1306532 if it wont work i have more links :D
[09:03] <Shwack> littledigger could be - if you haven't tried burning another copy I might try it
[09:03] <Scorch2> Indus: Can you walk me thru that?
[09:03] <KingDong_> Mark tightvnc?
[09:03] <MarkTraceur> Boulevardie: Is it in the folder you were in, with a '~' character before it? Nautilus sometimes hides those files.
[09:03] <indus> Scorch2: in a terminal , type uname -a
[09:03] <z_tau> Boulevardie: make sure you have ticked "show hidden and backup files" in nautilus preferences
[09:03] <billy> i installed 9.10  and it doesnt give me 1024x768 option,it only goes to 800x600
[09:03] <Shwack> littledigger but like I said - the two differences between fresh install and upgrade are ext4 file system and grub 2 - either of those changes could be causing the hangup
[09:03] <littledigger> yes this is the second copy
[09:03] <MarkTraceur> KingDong_: That could work, I'll try it. Thanks!
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> z_tau: can just press ctrl+h ;)
[09:03] <mataks> help pls.. everytime i reboot my ubuntu i get this error msg.. OUT OF FREQUENCY.. why is that/? i can't get in to my ubuntu now .. it started when i upgrade my grub to grub2.. help!!
[09:04] <littledigger> okay
[09:04] <Scorch2> Indus: I' don't have a lot of skills yet
[09:04] <Boulevardie> Z_tau, MarkTraceur: Nope, doesn't seem to be...
[09:04] <littledigger> so I should do an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10
[09:04] <llutz> sobersabre: btw, don't use tar with compression for backups
[09:04] <indus> Scorch2: go to menu>accessories> terminal
[09:04] <Boulevardie> Z_tau: how do I do that?
[09:04] <om26er> littledigger: clean install is better
[09:04] <m__> oin #ubuntu-fr
[09:04] <m__> join #ubuntu-fr
[09:04] <indus> Scorch2: type 'uname -a' without the quotes
[09:04] <littledigger> yeah I did do a clean install
[09:04] <z_tau> Boulevardie: Edit/Preferences
[09:04] <MarkTraceur> Boulevardie: Ctrl-h should do it in any nautilus window
[09:04] <sobersabre> llutz: yep, I've already found this out.
[09:05] <littledigger> and it keepś loading to GRUB and just sits there
[09:05] <Bryce1> is there a way to completely reinstall/reset grub2?

[09:05] <aldin> llutz: thanks!
[09:06] <sobersabre> llutz: does rsync know how to NOT backup things if they're on different partition ?
[09:06] <MarkTraceur> Bryce1: Yeah, but you have to boot from a livecd.
[09:06] <indus> Scorch2: ok now type cat /etc/lsb-release
[09:06] <llutz> sobersabre: man rsync ( -x)
[09:06] <sobersabre> ok.
[09:06] <Bryce1> marktraceur: ok because i get vga mode 758 is deprecated or something.. error right after i load out of grub
[09:06] <mataks> help pls.. everytime i reboot my ubuntu i get this error msg.. OUT OF FREQUENCY.. why is that/? i can't get in to my ubuntu now .. it started when i upgrade my grub to grub2.. help!!
[09:06] <littledigger> can I have a private chat with someone who can help thanks
[09:06] <llutz> sobersabre: rsync -ax .... should be fine
[09:06] <Boulevardie> z_tau, MarkTraceur: Oh, snap, I found it, but it has that .bak~ in the end, can I just rename the file and take that off without causing damage?
[09:06] <sobersabre> llutz: sorry, I'm running irssi on one machine, and man on another, with diff. display.
[09:06] <sobersabre> :)
[09:07] <om26er> rudedude1: hey
[09:07] <ActionParsnip> mataks: you need to use a lower refresh rate
[09:07] <ActionParsnip> Bryce1: http://ubuntuguide.net/how-to-restore-grub-2-after-reinstalling-windows-xpvistawin7
[09:07] <z_tau> Boulevardie: you might want to make a copy just in case, select the file and choose edit/copy, then edit/paste
[09:07] <billy> can anyone tell me is 800x600 resolution all that is available 9.10
[09:07] <reza> hi everybody
[09:07] <indus> billy no you can get higher
[09:07] <vega-> billy: obviously not
[09:07] <om26er> !hi |reza
[09:07] <z_tau> Boulevardie: then you can rename the copy to remove the bak from the end
[09:07] <ActionParsnip> billy: yes if you dont configure video drivers
[09:07] <llutz> billy: definetly not
[09:08] <mataks> ActionParsnip,  How? i don't know how

[09:08] <indus> ActionParsnip: if i dont configure drivers? why should anyone need to
[09:08] <littledigger> but I don have any other os just ubuntu
[09:08] <billy> indus:it doesnt give me a higher option
[09:08] <Romster> is there any easy fix to get rid of pulseaudio and install gnome-alsamixer and what files to edit to use that ~/.asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf or any other file and what ineed to change on Karmic Koala?
[09:08] <vega-> Scorch2: why do you think you wuold be running 8.10 ?
[09:08] <Scorch2> Sorry. I was answering Indus
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> indus: well its not doing it automatically, so some sort of intervention is needed, isnt it
[09:09] <indus> ActionParsnip: yeah it sucks really
[09:09] <indus> Scorch2: so you see, its 9.04
[09:09] <MarkTraceur> billy: There might be a way to check for restricted drivers...try System->Administration->Restricted Drivers
[09:09] <ActionParsnip> indus: bet its an ati thing
[09:09] <sobersabre> llutz: I've launched rsync -ax / /home/Backup/rootfs
[09:09] <sobersabre> (with -v too)
[09:09] <indus> ActionParsnip: its intel
[09:09] <Scorch2> Vega: cause when I looked at help that is the version that showed
[09:09] <indus> ActionParsnip: intel is worst in this case since 9.04, i thought they took care of it in karmic
[09:09] <ActionParsnip> mataks: can you give the output of: lspci | grep -i vga
[09:09] <sobersabre> waiting... how long do you think a SATA disk would take rsync of ~4GB of stuff ?
[09:09] <ActionParsnip> indus: specially since they removed xorg.conf
[09:09] <Romster> or at least fix pulseaudio that's not working.
[09:09] <Scorch2> Ok. My bad. So where is 9.10??
[09:10] <sobersabre> something like 50-60MB/sec... right ?
[09:10] <llutz> sobersabre: not very long, make sure to use sudo / root-rights
[09:10] <mataks> ActionParsnip,  here 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G73 [GeForce 7300 GT] (rev a1)
[09:10] <kuneli> irc.wyldryde.org
[09:10] <indus> ActionParsnip: yes exactly, how on earth do we fix this now :(
[09:10] <sobersabre> llutz: what do you mean ? I'm root :)
[09:10] <ActionParsnip> sobersabre: sync with what, an internal PATA drive? an FTP server on the other side of the globe? Itself?
[09:10] <llutz> sobersabre: ok
[09:10] <Romster> maybe i need to be in some other group?
[09:10] <vega-> Scorch2: well what happened to your upgrade process? hard to tell otherwise
[09:10] <indus> Scorch2: 9.10 you said didnt install,so it rolled back to 9.04
[09:10] <Scorch2> Indus: Where is 9.10 than?
[09:10] <llutz> ActionParsnip: local-sync to dir
[09:10] <z_tau> Hi.  A friend just installed 9.10 with an ATI card, but after changing the settings in Catalyst Control Centre to what he wants, after rebooting they revert back to how they were.  Any ideas what the problem is?
[09:10] <sobersabre> llutz: take your hand off my hand!!
[09:10] <sobersabre> :)
[09:10] <indus> Scorch2: why did you think its 8.10??
[09:11] <llutz> sobersabre: sorry, won't do it again
[09:11] <sobersabre> llutz: it's nice, and thank you of course!
[09:11] <llutz> sobersabre: i spent too much time in here :(
[09:11] <sobersabre> llutz: are you at least paid ?
[09:11] <crohakon> I want to format and repartition my external hard drive. I do not want to use NTFS or FAT32 but I still want windows to be able to access files off of it. Is this possible? And if so, what file system do I use?
[09:11] <Scorch2> Indus: That is what showed when I looked for the version in help.
[09:11] <indus> Scorch2: yeah help hmm nvm it
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> sobersabre: well the top data rate is 300Mbps so you can calculate it but use a lower number (read skips, seek times etc)
[09:12] <indus> Scorch2: so now you know its 9.04, so why dont you try 9.10 now
[09:12] <Boulevardie> Z_tau, MarkTraceur: Thank you so much guys, the essay seems to be completely intact!
[09:12] <Boulevardie> or girls
[09:12] <z_tau> Boulevardie: cool, glad to help :)
[09:12] <MarkTraceur> Boulevardie: No problem, mate! Good luck with the rest!
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> mataks: then you will need to run nvidia-settings     to configure the display, if you can't get that you will need to boot to recovery root console and run: sudo nvidia-xconfig
[09:12] <Scorch2> Vega: I had hit the upgrade button initially - did not know it would seize  me and it took more than 5 hrs. to finnish
[09:12] <sobersabre> ActionParsnip: mega*bits*/sec ?
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> sobersabre: yes
[09:13] <ActionParsnip> i believe, check online
[09:13] <Boulevardie> MarkTraceur: thanks :)
[09:13] <ce_atmosphere> blablablalbbblalablaa
[09:13] <sobersabre> ActionParsnip: I'm thinking in terms of MegaBytes.. so it's more convenient for me.
[09:13] <ActionParsnip> sobersabre: makes more sense
[09:13] <sobersabre> and as far as I remember I could do writes at 40-50 MB/s.
[09:13] <Scorch2> Indus: Does it still take 5 hours? :-/
[09:13] <indus> Scorch2: for whtat?
[09:14] <indus> Scorch2: depends on your internet speed no?
[09:14] <ActionParsnip> sobersabre: then thats the speed, the system will not send more data than the destination can write (forgot about that)
[09:14] <sobersabre> and as far as I can remember, a good SoftRAID (say 4 SATA disks with XFS underneath) can allow you ~200MB/s
[09:14] <mosta> how to install cairo dock

[09:14] <om26er> !torrents | Scorch2
[09:14] <Scorch2> It took 5 hrs to D/L 9.10 last time as new release
[09:14] <indus> whas the diff between a softraid and hardraid
[09:14] <sobersabre> Scorch2: what's your connection speed ?
[09:14] <om26er> Scorch2: torrent will download at a very high speed
[09:14] <sobersabre> indus: soft raid does everything related to RAID in software :)
[09:14] <indus> Scorch2: takes 1 hour on a 2mbps line
[09:15] <Pastoolio> indus : softraid is handled by software, hardraid is raid done by a hardware controller
[09:15] <Scorch2> Indus, Sabre: I'm on DSL @ 5 mbps w/ Qwest so it's usually slower
[09:15] <sobersabre> hardware RAID does all this on a dedicated microprocessor, with dedicated caches and memory..
[09:15] <indus> sobersabre: Pastoolio that is understood by the names, i want more details
[09:15] <indus> hmm
[09:15] <Guest8312> how to check the brand of my laptop video card? using command line interface? im using ubuntu
[09:15] <mosta> GUYZ NEED HELP IN SHARING FILES
[09:15] <sobersabre> indus: I have heard of a web site where you can read about it....if you WANT.
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> indus: hard raid has a dedicated piece of hardware and cache to make things go really fast, softraid sucks in comparison and uses the system ram and cpu to manage the disks
[09:16] <Pastoolio> Guest8312 : sudo lspci
[09:16] <llutz> Guest8312: lspci | grep -i video
[09:16] <sobersabre> mosta: TURN OFF YOUR CAPSLOCK!
[09:16] <om26er> Guest8312: lspci and find it . intel nvidia or ati
[09:16] <mosta> ok :(
[09:16] <mosta> coz no 1 answering me
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> indus: you can get some very decent raid cards with half a gig of disk cache, you get some killer speed off them
[09:16] <Scorch2> Indus: The first torrent I tried (not 9.10 upgrade) was a 1.2 gig file and it took 3 hrs
[09:16] <Guest8312> i'll check that out now, thanks,
[09:16] <sobersabre> mosta: have you read the famous "how to ask the smart way" article ?
[09:16] <indus> Scorch2: wrong torrent then
[09:16] <om26er> !ignore | mosta
[09:16] <mosta> no :( too
[09:16] <indus> Scorch2: its around 700 mb
[09:17] <indus> Scorch2: whre did you try from and what internet speed do u have
[09:17] <om26er> mosta: whats the problem you facing
[09:17]  * Pastoolio is very dissapointed with upgrading to 9.10 fresh install seems like a much better route
[09:17] <z_tau> mosta: try to be more specific with your problem or question
[09:17] <sobersabre> it takes 10 minutes to read. and saves months of nerves.
[09:17] <Guest8312> thanks Pastoolio great I got the brand now!
[09:17] <sobersabre> mosta: do you want the link to the article ?
[09:17] <Scorch2> Indus: No, no. It was a movie torrent - before the 9.10 episode
[09:17] <mosta> the prob is i have NTFS driv ..i wanna all windows pcs see it
[09:17] <mosta> ok
[09:18] <calvst>  hi, I was trying to run some X program with X11Forward, but it complain about font path. This is fixed by running xset.
[09:18] <sobersabre> mosta: read up, seriously: http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
[09:18] <calvst> but I noticed that I don't an xorg.confanymore
[09:18] <calvst> so where is font path set?
[09:18] <sobersabre> mosta: before I read it I used to be like you.
[09:18] <sobersabre> since I've read it, I am like me :)
[09:18] <indus> Scorch2: hmm so iam guessing your speed is 1.5 mbps?
[09:18] <z_tau> mosta: sounds like you want to set up samba sharing then?  someone else might be able to help with that
[09:18] <Romster> is there any easy fix to get rid of pulseaudio and install gnome-alsamixer and what files to edit to use that ~/.asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf or any other file and what i need to change on Karmic Koala or how to fix pulseaudio to work with jre in firefox? so far removed pulseaudio and installed gnome-alsamixer, i want to know the best course to fix this please.
[09:19] <sobersabre> z_tau: please give mosta 10 minutes to read the "smart questions" article....
[09:19] <indus> Scorch2: anyways , download the proper torrent, should take a hour and a half i suppose
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> calvst: another annoying reason why xorg.conf should stay
[09:20] <z_tau> Hi.  A friend just installed 9.10 with an ATI card, but after changing the settings in Catalyst Control Centre to what he wants, after rebooting they revert back to how they were.  Any ideas what the problem is?
[09:20] <Scorch2> Indus: I'm on a DSL 5 mbps connection. When I did the Ubuntu 9.10 it was through the auto upgrade feature in my Ubuntu. The torrent was a movie from a different site
[09:20] <erry> Excuse me, when i plug a usb in it often doesnt recognise it
[09:20] <erry> will it ever be fixed
[09:20] <erry> -_-
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> calvst: if you create the file, it will be read
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> erry: only if you log a bug
[09:20] <indus> Scorch2: hmm updgrades are typically 1 gb so
[09:21] <erry> ~_~
[09:21] <erry> -sigh-
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> erry: can you stop with the -_- stuff, its really redundant and scrolls the channel
[09:21] <indus> Scorch2: but i think the servers were slow when you upgraded, try now with a new server if you wish
[09:21] <sobersabre> erry: what do you mean "plu a usb" ?
[09:21] <sobersabre> s/plu/&g/
[09:21] <Scorch2> Indus: So I should just d/l 9.10 via torrent and try a new install?
[09:21] <erry> i plug the usb in my computer
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> Scorch2: after MD5 testing it, yes
[09:22] <om26er> sobersabre: plug
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> erry: usb what?
[09:22] <sobersabre> usb is just a connection. what are you connecting to the USB port ?
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> erry: many devices are usb
[09:22] <erry> ActionParsnip, usb device
[09:22] <wrchiu> usb hub
[09:22] <erry> a mouse
[09:22] <erry> or a printer
[09:22] <indus> Scorch2: no need, do direct upgrade
[09:22] <erry> or an external disk
[09:22] <Scorch2> Indus: Is there a preferred site to d/l 9.10 from?
[09:22] <FloodBot3> erry: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:22] <cappiz> in a class, i have several functions - is it possible to catch which function invokes a function ?:P
[09:22] <erry> sorry
[09:22] <cappiz> did that make any sense?
[09:22] <sobersabre> erry: what motherboard do you have ? is it a laptop ?
[09:22] <wrchiu> or mobile dev
[09:22] <erry> yes its a laptop
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> erry: ok so your usb ports arent working, have you tried some boot options?
[09:22] <sobersabre> which laptop ?
[09:22] <erry> ActionParsnip, they do work
[09:22] <indus> Scorch2: hmm the main website , www.ubuntu.com/downloads
[09:22] <fcuk112_> any idea why opera is not yet in the repositories yet?
[09:22] <wrchiu> yeah
[09:22] <erry> ActionParsnip, they sometimes dont
[09:22] <sobersabre> erry: you CAN tell us what hardware you have.....
[09:23] <sobersabre> we won't hit you in the face for that...
[09:23] <KingDong_> I was surprised opera wasnt there either
[09:23] <wrchiu> a wriless usb mouse
[09:23] <erry> sobersabre, when ubuntu becomes nasty it doesnt realize i plug a usb no matter what it is i plug
[09:23] <sobersabre> and guess what: if you tell us, it IS possible we may even determine what is the problem....
[09:23] <indus> KingDong_: iam assuming you have enabled the partner repos
[09:23] <erry> sobersabre, what do you want to know
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> erry: then read the dmesg | tail       when it does, when one doesn't read the output again
[09:23] <wrchiu> logitech
[09:23] <Scorch2> Indus: Cool! I'll try that.
[09:23] <i_is_broke> fcuk112_, opera is a closed source. so it probably wont be in the repos
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> erry: i'd log a bug though for the devices
[09:23] <sobersabre> erry: I want to know your laptop model.
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> !opera | fcuk112_
[09:24] <indus> Scorch2: there are more options listed but i avoid torrents unlike most users here
[09:24] <erry> sobersabre, it's a toshiba
[09:24] <wrchiu> when i plug it  ,have nothing to do
[09:24] <sobersabre> erry: oh! this explains everything.
[09:24] <sobersabre> are you kidding me or what ? :) what MODEL, not "manufacturer".
[09:24] <erry> IDK

[09:27] <erry> [  738.900070] usb 3-1: device descriptor read/64, error -62
[09:27] <erry> is that ok
[09:27] <fcuk112_> ActionParsnip: someone made a request to package opera: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/480489 - what do you make of that?
[09:27] <sobersabre> erry: this looks like ... error :)
[09:27] <erry> sobersabre, is it fixable?
[09:28] <indus> !paste | err
[09:28] <Scorch2> Indus: Yeah. Phenom quad, 4 gigs ram ASUS M3A78 M/B with HDMI
[09:28] <erry> sobersabre, is there anything i can do to fix it?
[09:28] <indus> !paste | erry
[09:28] <erry> k sorry indus
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> fcuk112_: unless opera agree to it, it wont go anywhere
[09:28] <sobersabre> erry: do you think I can do things like spiritual guidance ?
[09:28] <indus> erry: no need of sorry, relax
[09:28] <sobersabre> I am only able to analyze information...
[09:28] <erry> huh?
[09:28] <leaf-sheep> fcuk112_: Looks like bug advertising rather than a bug description.
[09:28] <erry> ok
[09:28] <sobersabre> and relax indeed :)
[09:28] <erry> so anything i can do to get it working
[09:28] <indus> sober sabre hmm
[09:28] <sobersabre> so, how old is this laptop ?
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> fcuk112_: just download the deb from the opera site and run: sudo dpkg -i <deb file>; sudo apt-get -f install
[09:29] <sobersabre> erry: sometimes people mix h/w problems with software problems.
[09:29] <fcuk112_> ActionParsnip: thanks.
[09:29] <sobersabre> erry: do you also have windows on this laptop ?
[09:29] <indus> erry:  what is the problem
[09:29] <wrchiu> old ? no it`s too young
[09:29] <erry> sobersabre, my hardware is fine
[09:29] <erry> sobersabre, yes i have windows xp installed, but i try not to use it
[09:29] <wrchiu> born 16/5/2009
[09:29] <wrchiu> no ,ubuntu only
[09:30] <om26er> fcuk112_: http://www.opera.com/browser/download/
[09:30] <sobersabre> erry: I'm trying to get information from you, please help.
[09:30] <Scorch2> Indus: So why would Flash abuse my sys. I thought I built a race car
[09:30] <indus> ActionParsnip: opera used to be there, but i think some license changed
[09:30] <erry> sobersabre, well i answered
[09:30] <indus> Scorch2: flash is dumb with firefox as of now, i think flash 11 is in the works
[09:30] <indus> vote for flash 11
[09:30] <Bryce1> what does vga=758 is deprecated. mode 758... after selecting my operating system in grub mean?
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> indus: its proprietary so opera will call all the shots afaik
[09:30] <sobersabre> erry: is it possible that if you boot into windows, and have the computer up for say ... an hour (until it heats enough to have overheat problems), and play with USB mouse with XP ?
[09:30] <indus> ActionParsnip: remember the goodold days of flash 8 and 9
[09:31] <wrchiu> vote for flash 10........
[09:31] <erry> sobersabre, huh?
[09:31] <om26er> Scorch2: perhaps you were playing a high defination video and all the work was being done by your cpu not gpu
[09:31] <indus> vote for flash 11
[09:31] <sobersabre> erry: I think the problem is either the mouse OR the overheating of the USB (and maybe other parts)
[09:31] <erry> sobersabre, i don't understand please rephrase it
[09:31] <wrchiu> vote for flash 10........
[09:31] <sobersabre> erry: you are getting errors in the device connection.
[09:31] <erry> sobersabre, it's not the mouse cause it does it for EVERY usb device i have
[09:31] <llutz> good day / flash = oxymoron
[09:31] <calvst> ActionParsnip, that works. But I understand that Xft/fontconfig doesn't need fontpath?
[09:31] <Scorch2> Indus: Oh. Got it. Other things seem slow on my sys. Got any ideas how to fix? Even internal sys searchs, etc. are slow
[09:31] <om26er> !poll | wrchiu
[09:31] <calvst> ActionParsnip, will there be conflict?
[09:31] <indus> Scorch2: bah no, flash videos are crazy ayway, and iam not sure if they are smart enough to use gpu to play online video
[09:31] <sobersabre> erry: ok, so can you boot into windows and try rulling out the h/w problem ?
[09:31] <erry> sobersabre, and ive used windows to play games without a cooler. it's possible that i've overheated the poor thing to death
[09:32] <ActionParsnip> calvst: conflict with what?
[09:32] <erry> sobersabre, well im quite sure windows wont do it
[09:32] <Bryce1> what does vga=758 is deprecated. mode 758... after selecting my operating system in grub mean?
[09:32] <sobersabre> erry: can you do an experiment ?
[09:32] <erry> sobersabre, i hate windows too much
[09:32] <erry> besides im busy
[09:32] <Scorch2> om26er: Maybe. Don't know. But I am still not happy wiht my sys performance
[09:32] <sobersabre> erry: then buy another laptop....
[09:32] <sobersabre> :)
[09:32] <ActionParsnip> calvst: i doubt it, hal attempts most configs but if the setting is there it should supercede the other setting (maybe it will be added, you'll have to play)
[09:32] <sobersabre> if you're busy.
[09:32] <solanum_> siapa yang bisa membantu ?
[09:32] <erry> sobersabre, sometimes when i boot to windows, and then reboot, the lappy doesnt even get to grub
[09:33] <erry> sobersabre, it doesnt even get to before grub
[09:33] <indus> !indonesia
[09:33] <erry> it just has a black scvreen xD
[09:33] <solanum_> yup
[09:33] <sobersabre> erry: I don't know what the problem is, but the log message looks like hardware malfunction.
[09:33] <ActionParsnip> erry: i'd use the CD / grub to check your ram
[09:33] <om26er> Scorch2: the upcoming flash(2010) will support hardware acceleration that might help
[09:33] <sobersabre> USB controllers are VERY prone to overheating.
[09:33] <indus> om26er: link please
[09:33] <sobersabre> erry: do you live in a cool place or a hot one ?
[09:33] <erry> sobersabre, well, then it's possible that windows killed my usb
[09:33] <indus> om26er: i need to read it
[09:33] <om26er> indus: its called google.com
[09:33] <erry> sobersabre, it depends on the season
[09:33] <indus> om26er: could be more helpful than that
[09:33] <sobersabre> erry: what can "kill" a usb is overloading a cheap USB controller.
[09:34] <erry> it's cold right now but.. this lappy has gone through a summer or two
[09:34] <erry> sobersabre, ahem
[09:34] <erry> sobersabre, i use all my ports :p
[09:34] <indus> om26er: may as well ask all users here to google dot com no?
[09:34] <sobersabre> many laptops ship with a relatively chip USB controllers (to lessen the price), and are not really good to run many USB devices at once.
[09:34] <om26er> indus: almost a month ago adobe announced that. the news was all over the internet
[09:34] <solanum_> di ujung senja
[09:34] <solanum_> semua tertawa
[09:34] <sobersabre> erry: and if you DO use all of them, it heats, and may even cause damage.
[09:34] <erry> sobersabre, well if wireless always worked id use a prot less :p
[09:34] <sevenless> sobersabre: as i found the other day, leaving the usb stick in your laptop on the passenger seat then braking hard can also kill it
[09:34] <solanum_> kecuali dia yang menangisi hidupnya
[09:34] <indus> om26er: i dont live around the internet so i asked
[09:34] <erry> port*
[09:35] <solanum_> itulah hidup
[09:35] <Scorch2> om26er: My sys is pokey all the time - not just w/ Flash
[09:35] <solanum_> jika kau tak kuasa
[09:35] <sobersabre> sevenless: throwing a laptop from the 5th floor can also damage a USB controller... so what ?
[09:35] <sobersabre> :)
[09:35] <solanum_> tak kuasa mengendalikannya
[09:35] <erry> sobersabre, by the way, would plugging in a usb hub make things worse?
[09:35] <solanum_> akankah ini
[09:35] <erry> like a hub that gives you another 4 ports
[09:35] <solanum_> berakhir bahagia
[09:35] <Bryce1> how do i make grub log all errors?
[09:35] <sobersabre> erry: it won't resolve the overheating problem if it results from a lot of data.
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> !indonesia | solanum_
[09:35] <solanum_> seperti yang diharapkan
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> yes!
[09:36] <erry> sobersabre, it doesnt have an overheating prob in linux
[09:36] <sobersabre> say you're using a webcam+harddisk+flash disk, it's a high data transfer rate.
[09:36] <sobersabre> and it heats the things.
[09:36] <erry> sobersabre, only windows makes it overheat
[09:36] <erry> temperature:             57 C
[09:36] <erry> that's its usual
[09:36] <om26er> indus: this :http://www.liliputing.com/2009/09/nvidia-and-adobe-to-support-hardware-acceleration-for-hd-flash-video.html
[09:36] <indus> om26er: cant find it, linke do you
[09:36] <erry> Windows rises it to about 70..
[09:36] <sobersabre> erry: 57 C is the temperature of your USB controller ?
[09:36] <erry> no
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> erry: 57 sounds ok
[09:36] <erry> my laptop
[09:37] <sobersabre> erry: your laptop, if you look at it closely, is a BIG place.
[09:37] <sobersabre> it has several locations, and we're now talking about USB controller.
[09:37] <sobersabre> :)
[09:37] <sobersabre> do you see my point or no ?
[09:37] <erry> errietta@errietta-laptop:~$ cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/TZCR/temperature
[09:37] <erry> temperature:             57 C
[09:37] <erry> errietta@errietta-laptop:~$
[09:37] <erry> that's the only temperature i can find
[09:37] <sobersabre> erry: this is the CPU temperature.
[09:37] <erry> ij
[09:37] <erry> ok*
[09:37] <FloodBot3> erry: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:37] <erry> is there a USB one?
[09:37] <sobersabre> erry: as far as I know ... no.
[09:38] <sobersabre> erry: you have 2 things to do: to see if the controller already is faulty.
[09:38] <om26er> indus: type this in google to get more results: adobe getting hardware acceleation
[09:38] <erry> sobersabre, how do i check that
[09:38] <solanum_> haruskah aku diam d sini
[09:38] <crohakon> erry, my laptop only has a processor temp sensor and a video card temp sensor
[09:38] <sobersabre> erry: turn off the computer for a long while, until it's cold.
[09:38] <erry> omg
[09:38] <erry> ill die if i do that
[09:38] <erry> :(
[09:38] <tiox> Hehe.
[09:39] <chu_> Hey guys, any idea why Banshee doesn't work _at all_ anymore for me? I don't believe I have changed anything, but trying to listen to Pink Floyd's The Wall right now, and it just creates a cross next to every song as it moves down, I have checked with all other music in my library (including course recordings from school which aren't in ~/Music) and everything does the same....
[09:39] <tiox> Hey people.
[09:39] <erry> i agree with chu_
[09:39] <solanum_> hey
[09:39] <erry> No music player works for me anymore, except Audacious2
[09:39] <erry> and totem whuich is actually a video player but it can play music
[09:39] <solanum_> henna hito
[09:39] <crohakon> erry, if by die you mean you might notice that beyond the windows of the room you are sitting in there is a beautiful world that is real and waiting for you to explore... then yes... you might die.
[09:39] <chu_> Yeah totem works.
[09:39] <tiox> Just came here to make a small note about Gnome libnotify... I am sure it has been asked countless times...
[09:39] <erry> omg
[09:39] <om26er> erry: rhythmbox?
[09:39] <sobersabre> erry: I'm tired, and I'm not paid. I think you know all the information about the possible causes of your USB problem. you will now have to experiment to rule out things like total loss of USB or death under heavy load.
[09:39] <erUSUL> chu_: puseaudio died; start it again. « start-pulseaudio-x11 »
[09:39] <erry> lifer detected... lifer detected...
[09:39]  * erry dies of the lifer
[09:40] <chu_> Cheers
[09:40] <sobersabre> in any case, good luck.
[09:40] <flyguy97> Can anyone tell me why the gcc v3.3 must be compiled with gcc v3.3??? I want to create a package in my ppa but not sure how to get around that requirement
[09:40] <erry> erUSUL, i dont think that's the case
[09:40] <erry> it _never_ works for me
[09:40] <chu_> Nope, same thing.
[09:40] <solanum_> life is like an boat
[09:40] <erry> there's no life.
[09:40] <erry> Only nerdiness.
[09:40] <erry> :)
[09:40] <chu_> It worked for me like yesterday.
[09:40] <solanum_> no body know who i really am
[09:40] <erry> chu_, then you're lucky
[09:40] <thiscomputer> what is the syntax to download and install language packs for openoffice3.1 in terminal
[09:40] <sobersabre> erry: life is what YOU make it.
[09:40] <indus> om26er: no  such thing on adobe labs, next is called 10.1 in april 2010
[09:40] <solanum_> i never felt this empty before
[09:40] <erry> sobersabre, so my life is coding :)
[09:40] <sobersabre> bye all.
[09:40] <KingDong_> thats a facy
[09:41] <tiox> But I wonder, when will we get a better version of it? Will there ever be an improved version of libnotify that's actually a little more useful?
[09:41] <chu_> Argh.
[09:41] <KillaB> hey, is there a way to check which files are owned by a package? I'm trying to help someone out, but I'm not familiar with the whole apt system
[09:41] <mosta> so after reading that article  " i want some teach me how to share a file using swat"
[09:41] <erry> what's wrong with the current libnotify?
[09:41] <Jetsetlemming> I can't boot ubuntu. It's loaded twice since I installed it, once when I first installed it and once yesterday, but it's been constantly giving me booting problems. Getting it to run for that reboot yesterday required running fsck from the live cd which somehow got it working, but I can't seem to repeat that today
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: i thought that was normal, allows you to add the system optomisations for the system compiling to gcc to make it more efficient and compile for the right arch (my guess)
[09:41] <llutz> KillaB: dpkg -L paackage
[09:41] <KillaB> thank you
[09:41] <erry> anyway later
[09:41] <solanum_> i need somebody who's ake me strong
[09:41] <erry> ill be busy now
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: you do that in gentoo to make things cool
[09:41] <erry> Byee :0
[09:41] <Jetsetlemming> When I loaded the "recovery mode" there appeared to be some errors that flew by but I didn't have the time to read them or note them so I dunno what any said
[09:42] <chu_> LOL, I ran banshee from the command-line, thinking if there were errors I'd get it this way, and guess what, we have sound.
[09:42] <flyguy97> ActionParsnip: How could I possibly satisfy this requirement in Launchpad. Seems like the chicken and the egg scenario
[09:43] <KillaB> llutz: it worked, thanks :D
[09:43] <Scorch2> Indus: Here's a link for Flash 10.1  http://www.liliputing.com/2009/10/its-official-adobe-flash-10-1-to-support-nvidia-gpus-a-whole-slew-of-smartphones.html
[09:43] <thiscomputer> what is the syntax to download and install language packs for openoffice3.1 in terminal
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: it is, if you look into how do youu compile a compiler, it gets headachey
[09:43] <Bryce1> in grub what could vga=758 is deprecated mean?
[09:43] <KingDong_> thiscomputer
[09:43] <KingDong_> why use terminal?
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: thing is, you take a generic non-optomised thing, and its source and compile it so its better
[09:44] <chu_> Can only one application "hold" the sound at any one time?
[09:44] <thiscomputer> its faster and easier for me more compleat
[09:44] <erUSUL> chu_: no; if all of them use puseaudio. some need to be configured
[09:44] <solanum_> uugggghhhh
[09:44] <thiscomputer> king had it saved somewhere but i lost it
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: thing == compiler
[09:44] <Lint> thiscomputer, openoffice.org-l10n-XX
[09:45] <thiscomputer> thanx king
[09:45] <flyguy97> ActionParsnip: Any idea on how to overcome this obstacle? I am at a loss. I contacted the Debian packager but they never responded.
[09:45] <Scorch2> Does anyone have links to increase sys performance?
[09:45] <Jetsetlemming> Can anybody help me get ubuntu to boot? :(
[09:45] <Bryce1> in grub what could vga=758 is deprecated mean?
[09:45] <indus> Scorch2: is your system slow
[09:45] <mataks> help pls.. after i upgrade to grub2... i get this error msg OUT OF FREQUENCY everytime i reboot.. and i can't get into graphical mode.. why is that?
[09:45] <chu_> Just weird, I had Chromium opened before, and Banshee wouldn't play, I close Chromium and Banshee works, I re-open Chromium no problems.
[09:46] <simono> hi trying to connect my ipaq to the internet via bluetooth
[09:46] <tiox> Okay, let me ask another question involving terminal.
[09:46] <simono> any easy gui driven ways to do that?
[09:46] <Bryce1> mataks: did you overclock your cpu?
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: i'd play the game, compile gcc with gcc
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> !ask | tiox
[09:46] <tiox> I used the dist-update command, and now I have two entities of Linux on GRUB.
[09:46] <tiox> Is it safe to delete the older one?
[09:46] <Scorch2> Indus: Yes. I'm upset that my hot sys does not run like it should. Maybe I have too high expectations?
[09:46] <mataks> Bryce1, .. as far as i remember i just update the GRUB2.. and when i reboot i get the error msg.
[09:47] <Bryce1> try reinstalling grub
[09:47] <Lint> tiox, if you can successfully boot new one, yes
[09:47] <tiox> Oh, lol thanks for that. Of course. :)
[09:47] <adac> After upgrading to karmic, gnome desktop (X server) does not start anymore automatically. Any ideas what I can do? On booting up I'm on command line then. However I can start there the X server manually with startx command
[09:47] <mataks> Bryce1,  how to reinstall grub?
[09:47] <flyguy97> ActionParsnip: What are the repercussions of compiling with a newer version of gcc?
[09:47] <indus> Bryce1: it means that feature is being handled by something else now
[09:47] <emil_> yesterday I installed Ubuntu 9.10 on 2 computers. Neither would boot after installation. Does anyone know what's wrong? I'm new to Ubuntu btw. Haven't tried it before
[09:47] <klong> tiox, right they leave the kernels in case something doesnt work with the new one. :)
[09:47] <KingDong_> emil where did you get iso from?
[09:47] <emil_> ubuntu.com
[09:47] <leaf-sheep> emil_: You ran md5sum before you burn the Image?
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> tiox: you will need to uninstall the other kernel, that will remove the entry and save you ~120Mb in space
[09:47] <KingDong_> hmm thats is wierd
[09:48] <tiox> So then, how do I remove the older kernel if I know the new one works?
[09:48] <KingDong_> dualboot?
[09:48] <Bryce1> boot into a live cd go into terminal and type "sudo grub-install"
[09:48] <tiox> Oh.
[09:48] <KingDong_> or just ubuntu
[09:48] <leaf-sheep> !md5sum | emil_
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: hopefully a slicker compiler, but it should also optomise for your hardware
[09:48] <indus> Bryce1: something to do with how the screen is set on boot
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: well, cpu
[09:48] <Flannel> tiox: Remove the kernel package (linux-image-[version]) with your favorite package manager
[09:48] <Bryce1> oh ok nevermind then mataks
[09:48] <leaf-sheep> emil_: Check and see if the ISO are corrupted. :3
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> tiox: if you run: uname -a; dpkg -l | grep linux-image
[09:48] <tiox> Ah.
[09:48] <KingDong_> yeah thats good advice ubottu gave
[09:48] <flyguy97> ActionParsnip: So you don't see any issues with compiling from a newer version of gcc?
[09:48] <tiox> So I can do this through Synaptic?
[09:48] <mataks> Bryce1, why?
[09:48] <emil_> why whould it be corrupted, is that a common problem?
[09:49] <Le-Chuck_ITA> Hi all, do you know if in karmic usb devices are broken? My external mouse is seen in dmesg but not in X
[09:49] <Le-Chuck_ITA> it's an usb mouse
[09:49] <emil_> it runs fine from the CD
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> tiox: you will see your current kernel running, and then ALL the installed kernels, you can remove the kernel(s) that arent that arent the running kernel as you wish
[09:49] <Bryce1> i'm not sure you might have to edit your grub config files. but i have no idea how to do so. i would ask indus
[09:49] <klong> Le-Chuck_ITA, my USB mouse is working fine is karmic./
[09:49] <andre__> e ae galera
[09:49] <andre__> bele
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: can't see why not, you'll have all the fun of compiling it too (getting dev deps etc)
[09:49] <Le-Chuck_ITA> It's working for me on another laptop, but it's broken on two different eeepc
[09:49] <Scorch2> Indus, Sobersabre, om26er: Thank you for the help. I'll see about the upgrade tomorrow. time for ZZZZ
[09:50] <Le-Chuck_ITA> sorry I forgot about this right now
[09:50] <tiox> It's sorta late around where I am, I was just seeing if there was a quick solution.
[09:50] <indus> Scorch2: gnight
[09:50] <emil_> it was 2 different isos for the 2 installations if it makes any differens. one was original Ubuntu and one was Ubuntu Remix 4 from ubuntu.se
[09:50] <Bryce1> in grub what could vga=758 is deprecated mean?
[09:50] <indus> Le-Chuck_ITA: its not broken
[09:50] <tiox> I am running 9.10 off USB (yeah, sorta silly but it works.)
[09:50] <Flannel> tiox: You can do it through Synaptic, yeah
[09:50] <Lint> Bryce1, that this boot parameter is obsolete?
[09:50] <indus> Bryce1: i answered that question to you already
[09:51] <flyguy97> ActionParsnip:Thank you for your advice, I can't wait to dig in sarcastically speaking
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> tiox: doesnt matter, yu should definately do it as you need the space
[09:51] <Guest56437> hi
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> flyguy97: you'll learn a lot too :)
[09:51] <mcmlxxi> doesn't /etc/profile hold the global PATH definition?
[09:51] <Le-Chuck_ITA> hmm, does anyone know how to debug a situation where a plugged in input device is not used  by Xorg?
[09:51] <Bryce1> insdus: oh i thought you were answering matakas' question
[09:51] <Bryce1> *mataks
[09:51] <tiox> I am using the USB drive as a test platform, basically.
[09:51] <mataks> Bryce1, yes?
[09:51] <indus> Bryce1: its some boot paarameter which is no longer needed or used
[09:52] <fr4ng0l1n0> e ae
[09:52] <Guest56437> how i can install driver em28xx on ubuntu karmic
[09:52] <tiox> Do I don't have to mess with partitions.
[09:52] <tiox> So*
[09:52] <Bryce1> indus: so how would i remove it so i dont see it anymore
[09:52] <Guest56437>  how i can install driver em28xx on ubuntu karmic?
[09:52] <tom__> how do I switch my interface from the netbook interface to the standard interface?  Also, is there a way for me to switch to the moblin interface??
[09:52] <indus> Bryce1: for example HAL is deprecated in 9.10 , though iam not sure what has taken its place
[09:52] <ActionParsnip> tiox: makes sense. i do the same
[09:52] <indus> Bryce1: hmm not sure if thats needed but read more about it
[09:52] <indus> Bryce1: you see it in where? grub boot menu?
[09:53] <indus> Bryce1: you can edit the grub file
[09:53] <Bryce1> indus: right after i select the ubuntu os it shows for a second then is gone. i dont see it when i boot to windows
[09:53] <tiox> So how in Synaptic can I access the installed kernels?
[09:53] <Jetsetlemming> Please can anyone help me? Ubuntu won't boot. Right after the white ubuntu logo it stops at a black screen and won't progress. I got past it once by fluke, and it loaded fine when I first installed it, but now I can't get in it at all, I'm using the live cd right now
[09:53] <Guest56437>  how i can install driver em28xx on ubuntu karmic
[09:53] <indus> Bryce1: hmm ok its a kernel message, ignore it, you cannot get ridof it
[09:53] <Flannel> tiox: You remove the linux-image-* packages you want to remove
[09:54] <xxx_> jest ktoś z polski
[09:54] <Bryce1> there is no way i can get rid of it?
[09:54] <fr4ng0l1n0> bele
[09:54] <Bryce1> at all?
[09:54] <indus> Jetsetlemming: use the safe mode to boot
[09:54] <indus> Bryce1: no
[09:54] <MatthewG> hm, this might not be the best place... but xterm -fs 40 doesn't show me a large font. Any tips?
[09:54] <Bryce1> argh. ok thanks for your help
[09:54] <emil_> anyone feel like helping a ubuntu beginner? pm
[09:54] <mataks> help pls.. after i upgrade to grub2... i get this error msg OUT OF FREQUENCY everytime i reboot.. and i can't get into graphical mode.. why is that?
[09:54] <xxx_> somebody from poland
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> tiox: search for linux-image   DONOT remove the running kernel
[09:54] <indus> Bryce1: it comes after you select ubuntu to boot correct?
[09:54] <leaf-sheep> emil_: Floppy Disk is not necessary.
[09:54] <Flannel> !pl | xxx_
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> !pl | xxx_
[09:54] <Jetsetlemming> indus, but is that different from recovery mode? That just loaded a command prompt screen, no access to the desktop
[09:55] <Bryce1> correct
[09:55] <indus> Jetsetlemming: yes in safe mode you get a display/desktop
[09:55] <stiv2k> hello what is the thing at the bottom of my screen session that i had before I upgraded to 9.10 but is not here anymore?
[09:55] <Jetsetlemming> How do I get into safe mode with ubuntu then? Hit F8 while booting like windows?
[09:55] <stiv2k> i guess its some sort of "screen profile" or something
[09:55] <indus> Bryce1: search on launchpad for this, there will be  a bug someone filed or a question
[09:55] <stiv2k> anybody knows about this?
[09:55] <Bryce1> indus: ok
[09:55] <indus> Bryce1: why does hte message bother you?
[09:56] <tiox> Of course. Foolish to remove the current kernal.
[09:56] <robin0800> Jetsetlemming: its shift with grub2
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> tiox: just covering all bases :)
[09:56] <Bryce1> because i like a clean bootup screen :)
[09:56] <adrenalin> Hi there, Im having a little trouble accessing windows shares via network on my ubuntu laptop, I have samba installed and I have been through google trying to find a solution but im stuck. Im using a wireless connection if that means anything, I also have firestarter installed with default settings. Can anyone help?
[09:56] <indus> Bryce1: we all do :) but its not possible as far as i know
[09:56] <Jetsetlemming> robin0800 that gives me the options to boot ubuntu, boot in recovery mode, and two different memtest options
[09:56] <indus> Bryce1: its already in quiet mode
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: can you ping the server by name and/or IP?
[09:56] <emil_> anyone feel like helping a ubuntu beginner? pm. problem loading gui, blank screen
[09:56] <Bryce1> indus, well as clean as possible
[09:56] <Flannel> tiox: It'a always nice to have one known good kernel backup as well.  Just incase you find a regression in the future of this kernel.
[09:56] <indus> Jetsetlemming: press f4
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> !ask | emil_
[09:57] <adrenalin> only ip at this stage, but I have tried connecting to the share via ip and no luck
[09:57] <wouterth> I'm trying to get my AG neovo screen working as an external screen with resolution of 1280x1024 on my hp-laptop with nvidia geforce 8400... nvidia-settings doesn't show any resolution with a height of more than 800 pixels...
[09:57] <Jetsetlemming> Boot ubuntu ends up with freezing at the black screen, recovery mode leaves me with just a command prompt, I ran memtest and no errors popped up
[09:57] <indus> Jetsetlemming: for more boot options its there
[09:57] <tiox> Of course.
[09:57] <Jetsetlemming> Ok, I'll look.
[09:57] <emil_> !ask
[09:57] <indus> Jetsetlemming: yes good , boot in safe graphics mode
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: ok no worries, can you run: smbtree windows.ip.address.here
[09:57] <tiox> Well, if I end up losing everything because my kernel suddenly failed me, I can always rewrite the MBR using my Vista boot CD and continue using my PC with that.
[09:58] <emil_> i have a hard time following all this rapid text :P
[09:58] <adrenalin> yes, but no output, just performs task and stops
[09:58] <leaf-sheep> emil_: You should only read the highlighted messages.  Ask the real question and if we know, we'll give you the real answer.
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> wouterth: if the monitor is CRT it may not be reporting refresh rates, you will need to run: sudo nvidia-xconfig  then add them yourself to get higher
[09:59] <mcmlxxi> doesn't /etc/profile hold the global PATH definition?
[09:59] <tom__> so i moblin not included in 9.10 ?
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> mcmlxxi: i believe so
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> tom__: run: apt-cache search moblin
[09:59] <wouterth> ActionParsnip: thx for your help, it is an lcd-monitor
[09:59] <tiox> Okay, I'll reboot and see what happens soon enough.
[10:00] <mcmlxxi> ActionParsnip, one of my colleagues told me it failed for a user
[10:00] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, yes, but no output, just performs the task and goes back to prompt
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> wouterth: ok, then read: less /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[10:00] <leaf-sheep> tom__: I believe it was more of a testing playground for ubuntu developers and then ubuntu-moblin-netbook should be in Lucid. :3
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: does the windows firewall block the connections?
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: or any other firewall you have
[10:00] <tiox> I know it is a small, low-urgency issue, but is anyone else annoyed how libnotify acts?
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> tiox: i uninstall it
[10:01] <tom__> leaf-sheep, so ill wait another 6 months then. got it
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> tiox: drives me insane
[10:01] <tom__> ActionParsnip, dont see it... unless mutter-moblin is it?
[10:01] <tiox> Needs to be better in my opinion. I mean, it CAN be useful.
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> !find moblin
[10:01] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, I will disables its firewall, test and get back to you, but I havn't had issues with it before. BRB
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> tom__: thats 8 right there
[10:01] <menno_> -join #alt.binaries.games.xbox360
[10:02] <wouterth> ActionParsnip: what am I supposed (not) to see there?
[10:02] <emil_> Having problem after clean install of 2 Ubuntu dist's (Ubuntu 9.10, and Ubuntu Remix 4). Neither will boot gui. Not in safe mode either. In safe mode I only get to a login promt, there I get stuck. HELP please.
[10:02] <leaf-sheep> tom__: You can use Moblin2.1 directly from Moblin site.  There also are ubuntu-moblin-remix iso available on site.
[10:02] <foo> xterm -fs 40 doesn't show me a large font. Any tips? This broke on 9.10, used to work on 9.04
[10:02] <tiox> I mean, think about it. The common Windows user like myself are use to notice bubbles with buttons and the like. libnotify has thhe same capacity to do that.
[10:02] <tiox> the*
[10:02] <tom__> leaf-sheep, use from there site...meaning, download an install iso or livecd ?
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> wouterth: where?
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> tiox: you can turn those offwith a reg hack
[10:03] <leaf-sheep> tom__: Yes. Both. LiveCD with the option of installing.
[10:03] <wouterth> ActionParsnip: I think my monitor isn't recognised correctly, because nvidia-settings defines it as "CRT-0" where it is an lcd-monitor. I got a lot of resolutions, up to 1024x768 and 1360x768, but I want it 1280x1024
[10:03] <tiox> All somebody needs to so is code a simple button archiecture to it that others can build upon.
[10:03] <wouterth> ActionParsnip: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[10:03] <tiox> Well, I find them useful in IM conversations. While I am typing i can read what somebody else has to say.
[10:03] <Jordan_U> tiox: The lack of buttons in notify-osd is a design choice
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> wouterth: you can change it to LCD in xorg.conf if it bothers you, downt make any difference, its just characters in a conf file
[10:04] <llutz> wouterth: it's connected to analog-port (vga)?
[10:04] <tiox> So what was the reason?
[10:04] <tiox> Seems rather silly to me.
[10:04] <wouterth> llutz: yes it is
[10:04] <llutz> wouterth: that's why it's called CRT-0
[10:04] <wouterth> llutz: I see
[10:04] <Jordan_U> tiox: The idea is that notifications should not be disruptive
[10:04] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, made no difference, if it helps, if I attempt to browse a windows workgroups, it returns failed to receive file list from server
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> wouterth: if you run: gksudo nvidia-settings     you can write the settings to the X configuration file, then you can run: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf     and manually edit the resolution line
[10:04] <tiox> And yet they're bat-shit annoying. :P
[10:05] <llutz> wouterth: but it's only internal name, shouldn't affect functiton
[10:05] <dAnon> do you know any good alsa mixer which doesn't completely suck and isn't worthless like many I tested?
[10:05] <llutz> function*
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: is your ubuntu system named in the same workgroup as the windows system, you can change it in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[10:05] <wouterth> ActionParsnip: thx, will try
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> wouterth: you will need to restart x after changing the file
[10:06] <Jetsetlemming> F4 does nothing on the grub menu for me.
[10:06] <wouterth> llutz: when I run xrandr (found on Google), the only output detected is "default"... but the google-example showed of that there had to be someting like "LVDS" and "VGA"
[10:06] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: alsa-mixer   in terminal is pretty ok
[10:06] <Jetsetlemming> It is an option on the live CD menu but not the Shift grub menu
[10:06] <dAnon> no it's not
[10:06] <om26er> !firefox
[10:06] <dAnon> it sucks
[10:06] <llutz> wouterth: try nvidia-settings, worked fo rme much better than xrandr
[10:06] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: well i cant tell you what your opinion is, nor have you told us what apps you have tried, so nobody can help you
[10:06] <indus> Jetsetlemming: there are many options from f1 to f6
[10:07] <indus> Jetsetlemming: its easy to search it
[10:07] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, it is on the same workgroup, is there someway I can check and make sure the samba is running?
[10:07] <Jordan_U> tiox: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotificationDesignGuidelines
[10:07] <Jetsetlemming> None of the function keys did anything in that menu for me. The only options were E for edit, and a couple other technical things.
[10:07] <Jetsetlemming> Is my grub install messed up somehow?
[10:07] <dAnon> I just want to be able to record "what you hear" or mic
[10:07] <wouterth> llutz: I was using nvidia-settings, but it didn't show the right resolution for my external screen... so while searching for solutions I found xrandr
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: if you are accessing windows you already had the required smbclient, samba is just helpful to have
[10:07] <Jetsetlemming> It's just the default automatic thing Ubuntu chooses to install on its own...
[10:08] <wouterth> llutz: while using nvidia-settings, my xorg.conf looks very basic... is that normal?
[10:08] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: then thats not an alsa mixer, you want a sound recording application
[10:08] <dAnon> standard 9.10 mixer doesn't allow me to choose "what you hear" recording source
[10:08] <dAnon> nah
[10:08] <llutz> wouterth: yes
[10:08] <dAnon> just a mixer volume for recording what you hear
[10:08] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: alsa mixer allows you to set volumes for different devices
[10:08] <wouterth> llutz: ok, thx
[10:08] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, thats the problem, I have been unable to access the file shares on the machine or any other.
[10:08] <Jetsetlemming> I managed to get into my HD install by clicking that option in the live CD menu. By the sounds of it the CD helped along the boot process.
[10:09] <mataks> help pls.. i get this error msg on my monitor everytime i reboot.. " OUT OF FREQUENCY"      that's after when i upgrade to GRUB2..
[10:09] <Jordan_U> adrenalin: Tried "alsamixer -c 0" ?
[10:09] <llutz> wouterth: for most setups there's no xorg.conf at all needed any more
[10:09] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: are the user names on both systems on the other system?
[10:09] <dAnon> ActionParsnip alsa mixer is so buggy I can't do anything with it
[10:10] <mataks> how to install alsa mixer?
[10:10] <dAnon> ActionParsnip it sets "what you hear" and mic and once and can't uncheck the "what you hear"
[10:10] <Bryce1> Indus: i figured it out, one faulty line in grub config file and its gone :)
[10:10] <mataks> when i type alsamixer on terminal i only have 1 volume settings.. it's just master volume
[10:10] <cmp> hello every body here , i would like to know how to speed up my ubuntu in general.  please note that iam very new in linux OS
[10:10] <dAnon> cmp 64 bit?
[10:10] <dAnon> Althlon?
[10:10] <cmp> 32
[10:10] <dAnon> oh
[10:10] <indus> Bryce1: yeah i did suggest it before, i had read that somewhere
[10:11] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: looks like audacity can do it, also found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5622896#post5622896
[10:11] <llutz> cmp: speed up system for fast idling?
[10:11] <cmp> dAnon, i use dell inspiron 1525
[10:11] <dAnon> thx ActionParsnip
[10:11] <cmp> yes llutz,
[10:11] <indus> Bryce1: its one of the grub boot parameter which can be edited, some use vga-791 for 1024 * 768 res
[10:11] <wouterth> llutz: oh, so I didn't have to change that in a try to get it working ;) i used virtual screens and stuff...
[10:11] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, yes the username is the same on one of the systems im accessing, perhaps there is a problem, because there is password protection? I have used it before with passwords and had no problem
[10:11] <ActionParsnip> cmp: how do you mean, "speed in general" it doesnt make sense, you can benchmark your system with tools......
[10:12] <emil_> are there known issues with Ubuntu and ATI gfx-cards?
[10:13] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: yes you should use passwords. If you run: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER   you can add a password (use the same as the logon). When you access the shares, you will be challenged for a password meaning you have connected correctly and you can authenticate yourself
[10:13] <Guest38286> nn
[10:13] <Bryce1> Indus: actually i dont even need that parameter. i can just use GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="gfxpayload=true"
[10:14] <indus> Bryce1: hmm
[10:14] <cmp> ActionParsnip, dont you know what does it mean in General - ok i will explain to you may be you dont get it easily - in general means = its slowing down by time - its getting slow time after time - its delaying the orders ... hope you could understand it now and hope it make sense for you .
[10:14] <indus> Bryce1: no idea what it means but good :)
[10:14] <Bryce1> indus: what would KMS be then?
[10:14] <ActionParsnip> cmp: ok well you never mentioned slowing down over time at all, lose the attitude
[10:14] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, yes it does ask for a password to access the share and then fails to get listing. Testing what you suggested now
[10:15] <indus> Bryce1: kernel mode setting is for intel cards
[10:15] <indus> !kms
[10:15] <Bryce1> oh thanks
[10:15] <cmp> if any body here can help , then i will be so much appreciative
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> cmp: if you notice it slowing you could read the output of: dmesg | less         to see whats going on, the lefthand column will show you tim ein seconds, if you notice large gaps during the activity, you have found a suspect
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: ok well thats good, means the socket works ok
[10:16] <Bryce1> Ubuntu 9.10 still doesnt play nice with vista/windows 7 file shares yet either :(
[10:16] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, same again, failed to receive share list from server
[10:16] <cmp> what do you mean by dmesg  I ???? i said iam new in linux
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> cmp: if you scroll to the bottom of the dmesg output and read up, it will be more helpful. The early stuff is your system booting so is not of interest
[10:16] <indus> Bryce1: makes for  a beautiful bootup and moves the X server initialisation to the kernel and wil allow for graphical messages
[10:16] <indus> Bryce1: coming for ATI IN FUTURE
[10:17] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, I just noticed someone said it doesnt play nice with windows 7 file shares?
[10:17] <leaf-sheep> Bryce1: You should go in ##windows and say "Windows 7 still doesn't play nice with karmic file shares yet. :("
[10:17] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: i can give you a copy of my smb.conf if you like, its how I configure shares (old school but not ard at all)
[10:17] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, note the target computer is win7
[10:17] <Bryce1> indus: ok thanks indus
[10:17] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: i dont use windows so couldnt comment
[10:17] <indus> Bryce1: WANT to read more?
[10:17] <indus> Bryce1: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/KernelModesetting
[10:17] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: maybe win7 needs some extra stuff
[10:17] <iceroot> adrenalin: wanting samba working with win7?
[10:17] <llutz> cmp: since you're new to linux, go and use your system a while. if you see it slows down, come back and ask again (you won't)
[10:17] <khunt> Is there a way to group similar taskbar items in karmic?
[10:17] <Bryce1> indus: lol thanks
[10:18] <Bryce1> leaf-sheep: ok
[10:18] <indus> Bryce1: :D
[10:18] <iceroot> adrenalin: you have to do 2 registry-modifications on windows-side to use samba, look at #samba and ##windows
[10:18] <adrenalin> iceroot, I want to be able to access file shares on a windows 7 machine yes, atm I cant
[10:18] <error404notfound> what is happening here: "pv /dev/zero > /mountpoint/zero.file; rm /mountpoint/zero.file" ?
[10:18] <Billiard> i didnt have to do any modifications to use win7 and samba together
[10:19] <adrenalin> iceroot, are those channels I should look at?
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: you could install openssh-server and use winscp, or you could configure a local ftp server
[10:19] <dAnon> sound preferences in karmic suck hard for not having "what you hear" adjustment
[10:19] <equivoc> hello
[10:19] <cmp> llutz , iam using it for about 6 months now - and i mentioned that its slowing down by time - iam sure that there is some way to change something like RegEdit in XP which can make your OS faster
[10:19] <thermoman> hi. when will drapper support cease?
[10:19] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, thanks, I would rather not use ftp or a client of that kind.
[10:19] <Guest70864> test
[10:19] <equivoc> my ssh client segfault on login http://pastie.org/693420 any hints for that problem?
[10:20] <equivoc> freshly installed 9.10 from cd
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: you may have to if win7 doesnt play nice
[10:20] <erUSUL> error404notfound: you are creating a 0 filed file and then removing it; you will have to stop the pv at some point with Crtl + V or it will stop when it fills the filesystem i guess
[10:20] <llutz> cmp: it isn't. check dmesg and other logs for errors
[10:20] <mikeyfbi> how do you make an external monitor the primary monitor in karmic ... all previous releases did it by default
[10:20] <mikeyfbi> and google didn't help yet :(
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> adrenalin: if its only for local access, ftp is fine. I wouldnt advise it over wan though
[10:20] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, thanks if thats the case thats what I will do
[10:20] <cmp> what is dmesg????????
[10:20] <llutz> cmp: linux != windows
[10:20] <erUSUL> error404notfound: crtl + C sorry
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> cmp: its a terminal command
[10:20] <erUSUL> cmp: is command to run in terminal
[10:20] <adrenalin> ActionParsnip, it is just for lan access
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> cmp: its the kernel messages since boot
[10:20] <llutz> cmd open console, type "whatis dmesg"
[10:21] <error404notfound> erUSUL, hmmm, i guess that command can be used to zero-out free space, correct?
[10:21] <cmp> ok when i will do type it in the terminal ....what should i do then after this ?????
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> cmp: dmesg | less     like i told you, then you read
[10:21] <erUSUL> error404notfound: well... somehow yes; i do not see why would someone want to do that though
[10:22] <llutz> cmp: "dmesg|less" and try learning to translate what you see
[10:22] <cmp> what after i readddddddddddddddd
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> cmp: use pg down to start at the bottom then read up
[10:22] <llutz> cmp: and check your attitude here please
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> cmp: you websearh anything you find of interest
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> cmp: like errors or warnings
[10:23] <error404notfound> erUSUL, are there any other methods? actually i want to made a full backup of sda, so i wanted to zero-out free space to not get included in the result gzip dd img file
[10:23] <cmp> translate what ???? and learn what ??? have you been learned your linux by default once you came in life  llutz, ???????????
[10:23]  * ActionParsnip sighs
[10:23]  * error404notfound signs as well :P
[10:23] <erUSUL> error404notfound: no there is no other method i know of ...
[10:24] <llutz> cmp: no i had to learn all that too, about 15 yrs ago
[10:24] <error404notfound> cmp, okay, read the output and put anything with error or warning on google, thats how i learnt...
[10:24] <cmp> and you cant teach some one so easily ... or you always like to let other spend also 15 years  llutz?????
[10:24] <llutz> cmp: using linux means reading/learning, nothing else
[10:25] <llutz> cmp: you have all ressources you need, called internet today
[10:25] <equivoc> my ssh client segfaults on login http://pastie.org/693420 any hints for that problem?
[10:25] <error404notfound> erUSUL, then i will go with this method... :D
[10:25] <Jetsetlemming> I was looking at my syslog, and an error message pops up at the beginning of every boot, "gabe-desktop rsyslogd-2039: Could no open output file '/dev/xconsole' [try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2039 ]", does this mean anything significant? Is this fixable?
[10:25] <mka> When I try running some .exe program in wine I get this error message "iinstall the Windows version of Mono to run .NET executables". How can I fix this?
[10:25] <cmp> then why you are here llutz, if you have all resources which called Internet ?????
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> equivoc: tried it without using keys?
[10:26] <cmp> to show of ?????
[10:26] <llutz> cmp: not to argue with whining kids EOD
[10:26] <error404notfound> cmp, in these 10 years all the linux that i learnt was 99% from google, and 1% by respecting other people in irc...
[10:26] <equivoc> ActionParsnip: can you elaborate please?
[10:26] <mka> error404notfound: meaning?
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> equivoc: you appear to be using ssh keys for authentication. Have you tried it without and using typed passwords?
[10:27] <error404notfound> llutz, stop it, come one, you are irritating him, ops might say ooftopic any minute now..
[10:27] <equivoc> ActionParsnip: no
[10:27] <error404notfound> mka, yes?
[10:27] <mka> error404notfound: what does that mean then?
[10:27] <cmp> i agree with you about the respection Mr error484notfound, but dont forget to repeat also , respect and help - to be respected
[10:27] <error404notfound> mka, what? i didn;t say anything...
[10:27] <llutz> error404notfound: he was told where to start. if he refuses to use those hints...
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> equivoc: well if it connects without keys ok, you know its something to do with that
[10:28] <error404notfound> llutz, then you should leave him alone...and he will leave you alone...
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> equivoc: you need to isolate parts of the system to see what is making it fall over
[10:28] <pjfry1> I seem to be having a lot of trouble with the new distro of Ubuntu ... is anyone else having problems?
[10:28] <equivoc> ActionParsnip: how can i connect without keys?
[10:28] <llutz> error404notfound: i did, you know what EOD means
[10:29] <error404notfound> cmp, yes, but see every problem is different, so unless you learn the basics, you would be here after years asking same questions...
[10:29] <error404notfound> llutz, nope... :D
[10:29] <pjfry1> I can't get the flash player to install ...
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> equivoc: you will nee dto remove the key you add wherever you added them, then you can simply connect with the password of your account
[10:29] <llutz> error404notfound: end of discussion
[10:29]  * error404notfound thought it was like AOE :P
[10:29] <pjfry1> My gnometris game won't play and I can't un-install it.
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> pjfry1: can you please give a pastebin of the output of: dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> !paste | pjfry1
[10:31] <cmp> error484notfound, do you mean i have to learn the basics in 10 years like you and then come back ???  does it really make sense for you ??? why do you think then they have created the thing which is ( transfare the knowlage to others and teach others your experience ) ?????
[10:31] <zaidka> Hi. sometimes when my usb modem disconnects, i find that i can't reconnect using the same device (/dev/ttyACM0). And I find that there's a new device /dev/ttyACM1 which works. So everytime it disconnects, i have to use pppconfig and change the device (increment the number by 1). Can anyone help?
[10:31] <suleman> i am not able to view videos in facebook,wat shud i do
[10:31] <error404notfound> cmp, check pm
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> suleman: install flash
[10:32] <bazhang> cmp, what is the issue
[10:32] <dAnon> ActionParsnip found QAMix, it has nice gui but still trying to figure out how to switch between "what you hear" and mic in capture tab
[10:32] <suleman>  i am not able to view videos in facebook,wat shud i do.whic plugin shud i use.
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: nice
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> suleman: flash
[10:32] <histo> suleman: is flash installed
[10:33] <suleman> where do i c that
[10:33] <cmp> bazhang, all what i want to know - simple way with some body who has the experience to tell me how to fix my Ubuntu if its slwoing down and how to clean it from any bugs .. is it so hard ??????
[10:33] <histo> !flash | suleman
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> suleman: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[10:33] <PauloRicardo> hey ppl, there is any way to install sun-java6-plugin silently from command line? I always got license terms confirmation... :-/
[10:33] <bazhang> PauloRicardo, hit tab to get to ok
[10:33] <SeungFu> Hi, how can I boot my installed on /dev/sda4 ubuntu using a ubuntu live-cd?
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> PauloRicardo: you will get that in cli, you need to agree to it
[10:34] <histo> SeungFu: well when you boot to live cd it should mount it.
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> SeungFu: you can boot to live cd then chroot to the installed system
[10:34] <histo> !chroot | SeungFu
[10:34] <SeungFu> histo, i do not want to mount it, i want to boot it
[10:34] <dAnon> dunno why but "what you hear" is in the mic section of capture
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> SeungFu: as histo says, if you just want access to the data you can do that from the live cd easily
[10:34] <zauber> if I have iptables running, and there's a bunch of rules configured in /var/lib/iptables/active, what happens when I start using ufw to manage my firewall? Are the iptables rules ignored? Merged with my ufw rules? Any way to start managing the firewall completely through ufw?
[10:34] <dAnon> I think that's driver's fault
[10:34] <suleman> thnaks everyone
[10:34] <dAnon> terrible
[10:34] <schwezzy> for whatever reason my program icons decided to move to the right of the date/time
[10:35] <schwezzy> it's really weird
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: log a bug, it will be attended
[10:35] <error404notfound> cmp,check private messages, i have send you some information over this...
[10:35] <bazhang> cmp, slowing down is pretty vague; you need to give some specific info, and inform the channels of the particular bugs of which you speak
[10:35] <SeungFu> ActionParsnip, when I chroot and then played with grub I messed my disk, now even though i uninstalled grub from mbr i get "ntldr is missing", i want to boot my ubuntu and do a update-grup and install-grub. without chroot (i think chroot cased this problem)
[10:36] <PauloRicardo> bazhang, ActionParsnip: oh yea... there's any way to skip this, perhaps with any option to apt-get? I'm installing this from one script that have &>/dev/null in apt-get calls... =/
[10:36] <bazhang> PauloRicardo, which script
[10:36] <ActionParsnip> SeungFu: sounds like the grub config isnt right, you can modify the scripts that make up grub from live cd to boot to the internal device, then play around to get your windows boot fixed
[10:36] <SeungFu> i follover almost every tutorial on the net, and those did not work
[10:36] <ActionParsnip> PauloRicardo: no, its a requirement of sun java
[10:37] <leaf-sheep> PauloRicardo: You can skip it by not installing it and use open-source alternative of java.
[10:37] <pjfry1> I don't know how to paste the result of the gnash I ran ...
[10:37] <SeungFu> ActionParsnip, i searched the net how to fix the windows vista boot, but found nothing, excepti clearing mbr, ans i did that and it did not help
[10:37] <PauloRicardo> bazhang: one that I wrote :P ... it installs ~50 packages, only sun-java6-plugin need this :(
[10:37] <bazhang> PauloRicardo, no way to skip
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> PauloRicardo: even if you use teh self extracting .bin file you must stil agree to the licence
[10:37] <pjfry1> How do I uses pastebin??
[10:38] <leaf-sheep> !paste | pjfry1
[10:38] <bazhang> pjfry1, open a browser to paste.ubuntu.com and paste there then save and give us the url
[10:38] <ActionParsnip> pjfry1: go to the link above, put the text in the page, add your name, click paste, when the page changes, copy the new address in the address bar and paste it here
[10:38] <pjfry1> !paste | pjfry1
[10:38] <om26er> what package needs to be installed to add open terminal here in the right click menu
[10:38] <bazhang> pjfry1, open a browser
[10:39] <leaf-sheep> om26er: nautilus-open-terminal
[10:39] <dAnon> ActionParsnip it seems like I can't set sound capturing mic and what you hear separately
[10:39] <PauloRicardo> ActionParsnip, bazhang, leaf-sheep: What a pity! :|  Thanks anyway guys, I will remove sun-java6-plugin installation from my script... ;-/
[10:39] <liam> big up ubuntu
[10:39] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: maybe theres another tool, its not something ive ever bothered to look into
[10:40] <lucapost> hi all
[10:40] <liam> hi
[10:40] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: does audacity not do it?
[10:40] <jimcooncat> What's a maintained window manager that is totally usable without a mouse?
[10:40] <dAnon> ActionParsnip I want to be able to choose if I can play music for my vent fellas, or talk to them
[10:40] <dAnon> ventrilo
[10:41] <error404notfound> jimcooncat, fb?
[10:41] <jimcooncat> error404notfound: fluxbox?
[10:41] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: like a radio show then
[10:41] <dAnon> not really
[10:41] <wjlafrance> Hey guys. I've got one of them pesky broadcom wireless cards. In the past it worked OOTB, but with Karmic I've got nothing. STA gives kernel panics (yikes!) and fwcutter gives some weird error.
[10:41] <llutz> jimcooncat: ratpoison
[10:41] <error404notfound> jimcooncat, yes, you can assign key combinations for everything i think...
[10:42] <error404notfound> llutz, forgot about that, jimcooncat go for llutz's suggestion
[10:42] <dAnon> it's just that I can play something funny or annoy them
[10:42] <jimcooncat> thanks error404notfound and llutz, I'll give it a shot
[10:42] <liam> hi people
[10:43] <om26er> hi
[10:43] <Sonickydon> hello
[10:43] <zauber> If I was using iptables before to manage the firewall, and now I want to use ufw, what do I do to make sure the rules in ufw are the ones used on reboot, and not the stuff in /var/lib/iptables/active?
[10:44] <liam> how do you query someone in xchat
[10:44] <indus> liam:  /query
[10:44] <bazhang> liam /msg nick hi best to ask first though
[10:44] <liam> ok cheers

[10:46] <dAnon> sound blaster ubuntu drivers are TERRIBLE, I can still hear microphone silently after muting
[10:46] <Appiah> sound blaster
[10:46] <Appiah> creative?
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: yep, they can be a pain. Creative cant ven support windows properly though so its all a big mess
[10:47] <dAnon> I could at least switch between "what you hear" and microphone in Windows
[10:47] <suleman> can u suggest some salient features of ubuntu
[10:48] <wjlafrance> After some googling, it looks like bcmwl-kernel-source needs to be reinstalled. When I try to remove it, though, I get wicked dpkg errors.
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: thats most likely ecause creative made an app for their card, they havent made one in linux so you are dependant on the community to generate one, unfortunatley you havent found one you like or are able to use so you will have to keep digging or learn how to use one of the existing softwares
[10:50] <liam> i can't believe i payed for windows
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: if creative supported linux, the app would be available but (like most companys) they ignore linux as supporting windows generates more revenue and they are a company
[10:51] <pjfry1> Apparently I have broken packages ... how do I fix them ...
[10:51] <dAnon> ActionParsnip that's just sad :/
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> wjlafrance: can you use a pastebin to give the output of the comamnd you are running and the output please
[10:51] <om26er> dpkg-reconfigure
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: true, pressure creative
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: if more hardware companys supported linux like they do windows we would have less grief
[10:52] <wjlafrance> ActionParsnip, I'm dist-upgrading right now. It looks like it may have been solved.
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> wjlafrance: awesome :D
[10:53] <Notpr0n> holy crap all all the channels really that dead or am i just not seeing lines of text..?

[11:01] <unimatrix> mataks: have u tried simply renaming the xorg.conf file, because you shouldn't really need it
[11:01] <leaf-sheep> pjfry1: Copy something from the terminal. Paste it in that website. Upload and retrieve an unique link.
[11:01] <mataks> unimatrix,  nope.. how?
[11:01] <khelll> how to restart iptables ?
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> pjfry1: copy the text, paste it on the site, add your name, click paste, when the page changes, copy the new address in the address bar and paste it here
[11:01] <unimatrix> mataks: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.RENAMED
[11:02] <mataks> unimatrix, ok i'll try then reboot?
[11:02] <unimatrix> mataks: or you could just reboot the X server: sudo initctl restart gdm
[11:03] <mataks> unimatrix, it says unknown instance.. initctl
[11:03] <koalinus> hi guys,help with kernel  armv5tejl?
[11:03] <unimatrix> mataks: then sudo initctl start gdm (because it's not running at all)
[11:04] <mataks> unimatrix,  it saya "gdm start/running, process 2402"
[11:04] <mataks> nothing happens
[11:04] <pjfry1> http://pastebin.com/m914eb28
[11:04] <unimatrix> mataks: oh ffs, just reboot then :D initctl seems to be very incomplete still

[11:07] <isolat3dsh33p> !swap
[11:08] <isolat3dsh33p> guys, what's the best size for my swap route if i'm playing game and have 3GB RAM?
[11:09] <MenZa> isolat3dsh33p: Honestly? I wouldn't bother with swap.
[11:09] <MadAGu> i think that swap must be twice the size of the physical memory
[11:09] <leaf-sheep> 100GB SWAP!
[11:09] <isolat3dsh33p> MenZa, I'm playing alien arena. So I wan't better performance.
[11:09] <leaf-sheep> MadAGu: That is old thumb rule.
[11:09] <laskes> hey, i restarted x and now i cannot log in to my main user account... my alternate one works, however... i can telnet login... help?
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> isolat3dsh33p: if you dont anticipate ever going over 3gb ram and dont use hibernate you dont really need it, if you do then use 3Gb
[11:09] <isolat3dsh33p> leaf-sheep, =_=
[11:09]  * MenZa doesn't use swap, ever.
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> laskes: run: sudo passwd bad_username_here
[11:10] <dAnon> ActionParsnip I think that if all the Linux programmers concentrated on one particular distro Linux would be a perfect system
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> laskes: and you can reset the password
[11:10] <isolat3dsh33p> ActionParsnip, thanks :D
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: not going to happen
[11:10] <icedwater> I think so too.. I increased my swap partition in the hope of being able to use hibernate ... but ... sigh
[11:10] <icedwater> dAnon: it would become Windows.
[11:10] <dAnon> ActionParsnip so many programmers wasting their time at worthless distros
[11:10] <laskes> the password isn't the issue as i am able to log in via telnet and reboot
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: the whole idea of linux is its a tool for a job, each distro has different aims and purposes
[11:11] <icedwater> The whole ... yeah.
[11:11] <mataks> unimatrix, i still can't start gdm... i still get the error OUT OF FREQUENCY.. :(
[11:11] <icedwater> JINX!
[11:11] <tigertiger> why i have not the fold    /usr/share/scim/tables
[11:11] <MenZa> dAnon: You'll probably find that people don't work on distros, but rather on different *components*.
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: each distro is just an amalgamation of other efforts, like ubuntu can use vlc and mplayer, canonical do not make these items, neither do they make the kernel
[11:11] <dAnon> ActionParsnip I have to agree on that, but there are too many distros out there
[11:11] <tigertiger> who can tell me?
[11:11] <leaf-sheep> dAnon: "I think that if all the car designers concentrated on one particular car, it would be a perfect car"
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: so all the coding for the other distros is the same as coding for many
[11:12] <mataks> unimatrix,  stil there?
[11:12] <MenZa> mmm upstream
[11:12] <bazhang> !ot
[11:12] <sunta> can anyone point me how I can get pulseaudio working with JACK?

[11:12] <oj_> hi, i installed 9.10 after install windows 7, when i came back to my room the installation was done, i reboot, but there is no grub menu. I can only go to ubuntu, and there is no menu.lst file, how can i fix this?
[11:12] <J_P> hey, anyone know if a converter analog vga to usb works on ubuntu? This is what show: root@c30:~# lsusb  | grep -i syntek

[11:12] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: e.g. xpud aims to be damn small and fast, puppy aims to run on low end hardware, ubuntu has a lot of stuff to help new users, and so on
[11:12] <laskes> also, i am running the standard 9.10 install, running telnet, x11vnc, and it is a headless computer
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: no one user is the same so multiple distros exist
[11:13] <laskes> it is my storage server
[11:13] <Mwa> how do I get rid of those annoying popup notifications before their rediculously long timeout expires?
[11:13] <sassyn> hi
[11:13] <pjfry1> ActionParsnip, I am learning ... as you can see I got some errors on the remove command.
[11:13] <sassyn> I need some help
[11:13] <laskes> so how do i go about fixing my issue?
[11:13] <sassyn> with usplash with radon
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: microsoft are dumb and think all users are identical and so only have one glove for all which is not practical and often windows is a poor choice for certain scenarios
[11:13] <bivo> whats the easiest way to rip a dvd disc into a .iso file? I know how to do this on a Mac using Toast, but I didn't see anyway of doing this directly in K3B
[11:13] <sassyn> Does someone have probelm with usplash
[11:13] <sassyn> ?
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> pjfry1: ok pastebin them lets see what it says
[11:13] <bazhang> bivo, k9copy
[11:13] <sassyn> When boot I get black screen
[11:14] <iceroot> !anyone | sassyn
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> sassyn: yes, thats why i remove it
[11:14] <sassyn> and the the usplash being for 1 sec
[11:14] <sassyn> Can we fix this?
[11:15] <sassyn> ActionParsnip: did u manage to fix it?
[11:15] <dAnon> ActionParsnip microsoft makes unsecure os-es so antivirus companies can earn their $$
[11:15] <dAnon> it's sad but it works this way
[11:15] <laskes> is anyone able to help?
[11:16] <iceroot> !ask | laskes
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> sassyn: no i just hate stuff like that so i automatically remove it if its ever on my system
[11:16] <dAnon> Microsoft is all about money
[11:16] <icedwater> dAnon: don't say things you don't know are true for sure. :P
[11:16] <icedwater> Well, at least not things about Micro - *huuuuuurkkkk*
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: but their system doesnt always fit, linux understands on glove does not fit all so allows you to make your own solution, and people do and allow others to use them if they wish, hence multiple distros
[11:16] <dAnon> win 7 was already proven to have security flaws
[11:16]  * icedwater has been iced.
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> dAnon: so does all software
[11:17] <dAnon> like every new windows
[11:17] <bazhang> lets take offtopic chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[11:17] <iceroot> !ot
[11:17] <icedwater> Also, bazhang suggested the offtopic channel. :)
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: gotcha
[11:17] <khelll> how to open a port? i want to have a port 3000 pinged by ppl
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> khelll: do you connect to a router or direct to the web?
[11:18] <laskes> i did ask it... anyway: i cannot login to my main username graphically... i can however login to it via telnet... it was working fine up until i restarted X
[11:18] <pjfry1> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/m3b1341e2
[11:18] <khelll> no i have a machine and i want ppl to telent to some port
[11:18] <iceroot> laskes: 1. never use telnet, 2. was is the error-message?
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> laskes: you use telnet, wow
[11:18] <Lint> how can I create a copy of directory in terminal?
[11:18] <joaopinto> Lingus, cp -a source target
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> Lint: cp -r source dest
[11:19] <laskes> iceroot: i'm on a private home network, i don't need to secure anything... there is no harm to me in using telnet. there isn't an error message. it simply bounces on the gnome loging interface and goes back to the user selection
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> pjfry1: groovy: sudo dpkg --force-all -i /var/cache/apt/archives/adobe-flashplugin_10.0.32.18-1intrepid1_i386.deb; sudo apt-get -f install; sudo apt-get --purge remove adobe-flashplugin
[11:19] <joaopinto> ActionParsnip, -a is safer, because it will preserve links, unlike -r
[11:20] <khelll> how to open some port for ppl to telnet on ubuntu ?
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> joaopinto: yeah just looking at the man pages, -a == -dpR   nice
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> khelll: do you connect to a router or do you connect directly to the web via a modem?
[11:21] <leaf-sheep> khelll: Are your machine behind a router?
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> khelll: the ports are all open, if you use a router you will need to configure that, hence me asking
[11:22] <leaf-sheep> khelll: http://portforward.com
[11:22] <khelll> no the machine is not behind a router
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> khelll: if you are not behind a router, then the connections are good to go, the ports are open
[11:22] <oj_> okay i see in my grub.cfg file my windows disk is not listed, what can i do to fix it?
[11:22] <khelll> but when i do telnet host port i get  telnet: connect to address 201.236.166.156: Connection refused
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> khelll: unless you have been playing with firewalling
[11:23] <laskes> ActionParsnip: any suggestions as to what i should do?
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> khelll: you need to specify a port number or telnet will connect to port 25 by default
[11:23] <tigertiger> why in my system ,there is no
[11:23] <tigertiger> and then in the lower half of the screen you'll see "Administration" (2). There you'll find a "Language Support"
[11:23] <equivoc> ActionParsnip: i did an strace http://pastie.org/693471, http://pastie.org/693473, http://pastie.org/693476
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> laskes: check the user is the owner of its entire home directory
[11:24] <khelll> so i don't need iptables thingy ?
[11:24] <tigertiger> can not find "Language Support "   in Administrator
[11:24] <tigertiger> why ?why?
[11:24] <hipitihop> I'm having major problems on one machine with npviewer regurlarly crashing or otherwise running away and I just had pulseaudio using 67% of memory
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> khelll: not unless you have added some firewalling previously
[11:25] <khelll> i just got a sudo to that machine
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> equivoc: ive no idea about those
[11:25] <khelll> how do i know if there is a firewall ?
[11:25] <milwaks> ActionParsnip, why would anyone want telnet access instead of ssh?
[11:25] <laskes> what is the default home folder?
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> milwaks: there choice, if its over lan then its fine
[11:26] <milwaks> ActionParsnip, I'm a relatively new user, but the idea seems puzzling?
[11:26] <pjfry1> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/m5e9828a2
[11:26] <indus> !telnet\
[11:26] <indus> !telnet
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> milwaks: ssh uses keys to encrypt the commands and text and whaever else you send, this makes it much more secure than telnet where everything is sent plain text
[11:26] <indus> enough said
[11:26] <pjfry1> ActionParsnip, It seems to be the same error every time ....
[11:27] <dmitry_> !ssh
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> milwaks: if a simple command line console and nothing else is needed and the connection is over LAN then telnet is equal to ssh in this case
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> indus: it is if its only confined to LAN, then its fine
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> pjfry1: not sure then, sounds like you will need to redownload the deb file again
[11:28] <milwaks> ActionParsnip, Ah right.
[11:28] <hipitihop> is there a workaround for the npviewer constantly crashing
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> milwaks: if you get smart alekky users with some access they can sniff for telnet traffic and see you doing stuff and may capture your password(s)
[11:29] <ActionParsnip> hipitihop: with flash you mean?
[11:29] <ActionParsnip> pjfry1: you could try websearching the error (copy all the lines) and see what comes up
[11:30] <milwaks> ActionParsnip, that's what puzzles me and ssh isn't really hard to set up and you can do all sort of other stuff like sftp etc  so it's less work in the end isn't it?
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> milwaks: it does offer a whole host of functionality but if all that is needed is a command interface then telnet is equal to ssh as they offer the only required functionality
[11:32] <Psinetic> what's the irc channel for gyachi support?
[11:33] <khelll> how to check if there is a firewall on the machine i'm working on
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> khelll: online security tester maybe
[11:34] <khelll> i'm sshing to that machine now
[11:34] <moir> :)
[11:34] <p-f> I disabled gdm in all runlevels - why am I still getting a graphical login screen on boot?
[11:34] <DarkMasterHalo> khelll: Try sudo iptables -L, if there are rules applied, then there is a firewall involved.
[11:34] <tigertiger> live cd means what
[11:35] <MindSpark> hello, does anyone know if there's an alternative to libxml2-dev ?
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> tigertiger: the desktop you get when you boot the ubuntu desktop cd
[11:36] <bazhang> tigertiger, its a cd you can try on your computer without installing
[11:36] <p-f> what happened to dontzap in karmic?
[11:36] <DarkMasterHalo> p-f: You don't have to disble GDM, if all you want is boot to a graphical login, you can change the default run level in /etc/inittab
[11:37] <DarkMasterHalo> p-f: boot to console* I mean :P
[11:37] <zey> hi
[11:37] <icesword> eh, hi
[11:37] <zey> anyone know about the video memory?
[11:37] <p-f> DarkMasterHalo, no such file here
[11:37] <zey> or graphic?
[11:38] <zey> its about my laptop
[11:38] <DarkMasterHalo> p-f: Eh, ok let me check something
[11:38] <zey> its video memory
[11:39] <icesword> zey, have you finished?
[11:39] <p-f> DarkMasterHalo, looks like /etc/event.d/ replaces it on ubuntu
[11:40] <minedmind> Hi everybody. I installed dvdrip (transcode) and I think it's because of that my cinelerra is bugging. So I want to uninstall it but How can I do to remove all the dependances of that program? I use apt get, not aptitude...
[11:40] <DocMAX> hello one question.. can i start an x-application without having an x-server?
[11:40] <zey> why on windows it said 1024 MB
[11:40] <zey> but on ubuntu it said 256 MB
[11:40] <zey> ice : can you help me?
[11:40] <p-f> DarkMasterHalo, or something like that anyway
[11:40] <DarkMasterHalo> Yeah, I just saw that since it uses upstart
[11:40] <indus> zey: where does it say that
[11:40] <frogzoo1> zey: you'll need to ask a better question
[11:40] <icesword> zey, claim your problem more clearly, ppl can help
[11:41] <zey> my video memory on my laptop
[11:41] <judgen> How do i turn off all screen related power saving in ubuntu, even in cli. Shutting of acpi does not work as my computer wont boot without it.
[11:41] <theadmin> Hello... uh... sorry for a stupid question but how do you edit meta-info of songs on Ubuntu? Name, artist and such...
[11:41] <zey> i check on lspci, it said 256 MB
[11:42] <zey> but on dxdiag on windows, it said 1024 MB
[11:42] <zey> why this is different?
[11:42] <sunta> how do I disable this "conga" sound when GDM starts?
[11:42] <ibmx61> haha
[11:43] <kwork> does anyone know how to restart plasma
[11:43] <kwork> just kill of the pid ?
[11:43] <sunta> kwork,  kill -HUP PID
[11:43] <[Elvis]> hej guys, I have a question, is there a default firewall coming with ubuntu install?
[11:43] <jadoo> hi, i have an internet connection which requires a login/password to be effective (for the ISP) and it is a wired connection (ethernet); i know how to configure it on windows but how can i configure it on kubuntu/kde4.3?
[11:44] <zey> elvis : yes i think
[11:44] <tigertiger> who can tell that in ubuntu 5.10  there is no language support in Administration  in system panel..
[11:44] <str0ng> kwork, pgrep <process name>
[11:44] <tigertiger> is that right ??
[11:44] <duffydack> zey, probably shared extra memory in windows...
[11:44] <str0ng> kill -HUP pid
[11:44] <[Elvis]> zey you think?
[11:44] <DarkMasterHalo> I'm testing something to see if it works, its going to be simple if it works
[11:44] <Milos_SD> how can I disable face gdm and enable just the one with manual username and password enter_
[11:44] <theadmin> jadoo: How do you connect? Is it VPN or some dial-up-like thing? (pppoe)?
[11:44] <[Elvis]> what firewall would thta be ?
[11:44] <kwork> lol okey my plasma went away on hup :P
[11:44] <[Elvis]> which defaults with ubuntu?
[11:44] <zey> elvis : just standart firewal
[11:44] <[Elvis]> ?
[11:44] <str0ng> [Elvis], firestarter?
[11:44] <duffydack> zey, my friends has something like 1500mb total video ram but its a 512 dedicated card..
[11:44] <kwork> str0ng, tnx for tip until now i have been using ps -ax | grep prog
[11:44] <[Elvis]> I never worked with ubuntu before
[11:44] <[Elvis]> :P
[11:44] <sunta> kwork, check what "kill -HUP" means
[11:44] <[Elvis]> only debian / gentoo
[11:45] <kwork> sunta reload
[11:45] <zey> duff : hmm... so it takes from RAM?
[11:45] <sunta> right. kill only kills
[11:45] <kwork> my PLASMA was kind of crashed now on hup it went away totaly
[11:45] <sunta> HUP=hangup and process I think
[11:45] <aadaveark> when i change appearances in preferences,say dark theme,after reboot goes back to default?
[11:45] <[Elvis]> is this default intsalled  str0ng ?
[11:45] <kwork> sunta anyways i have no plasma process running now
[11:45] <[Elvis]> this firewall?
[11:45] <zey> duff : the other 768
[11:46] <sunta> kwork, ofcoz not. you killed it
[11:46] <str0ng> [Elvis], yes.. and it's on the repository.
[11:46] <duffydack> zey, only in windows, unless theres an option to turn it off..  my friends has 512meg on the card anyway so I dont see it ever using ram.
[11:46] <kwork> sunta strange i thought HUP only "reload configuration"
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> !bcm43
[11:46] <duffydack> zey, maybe its vista/win7, maybe it needs that much for its "effects"
[11:46] <kwork> sunta when i hup my nginx for example it reloads the procces and pid remains the same
[11:47] <kwork> anyways i still have to say i love linux
[11:47] <kwork> when my plasma dies i can go and restart it :P
[11:47] <kwork> rather then loose all my open apps
[11:47] <[Elvis]> str0ng where can I find the config file then? if it's default installed str0ng ?
[11:47] <jadoo> theadmin: dial-up pppoe yes
[11:48] <str0ng> [Elvis], most of the configs can be found in /etc AFAIK
[11:48] <zey> elvis : hmmm... never try the default firewall in advance,
[11:48] <zey> @duff : no, im using XP
[11:48] <jadoo> so how can i connect with a dial-up type connection?
[11:49] <[Elvis]> zey str0ng, all I want to know...I just instaled ubuntu.....I want to know if there is a default firewall setup DURING intsallatin of ubunut
[11:49] <Mowee> Hard
[11:49] <str0ng> [Elvis], are you installing the desktop? or server install?
[11:49] <[Elvis]> server install
[11:50] <M03BIUS> Can someone please help me... I just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 and I have no sound... I use P5NE-SL Asus motherboard and my hardware doesn't show up in the Hardware tab in the sound preferences...
[11:50] <duffydack> zey, I dont know then..  maybe the driver has shared memory feature then...for extra large games
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> !dialup | jadoo
[11:51] <str0ng> [Elvis], i don't think it comes with the default install.
[11:51] <[Elvis]> and for desktop edition str0ng ?>
[11:51] <str0ng> you need to apt-get it
[11:51] <str0ng> [Elvis], i dont see it on my desktop as well.
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> !firewall | [Elvis]
[11:52] <oj_> hi, i just edited my grub2 to put an entry for windows, i can select it, but when i try to boot it it says bOOTMGR missing alt+ctrl+delete to restart... so how do i fix this ?
[11:54] <jadoo> ActionParsnip, will kppp be installed by default on my distribution?
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> oj_: make sure the entry is correct, grub2 partitions start at 1 unlike grub which starts at 0
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> jadoo: if you use kde, most likely
[11:54] <jadoo> ok thanks
[11:54] <tigertiger> bazhang :  you mean the installation is not complete ,,,   i can input the CD in computer and install the it.
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> jadoo: you can run: dpkg -l | grep ppp     to check
[11:55] <tigertiger> ActionParsnip:  how can i do then   ,can you tell me the steps   .  I am the newer
[11:55] <bazhang> tigertiger, there are a couple of options with a live cd; one of them is to use it without changing your system (kind of a test drive)
[11:55] <Milos_SD> how can I disable face gdm and enable just the one with manual username and password enter?
[11:56] <oj_> ActionParsnip, so if my widows is on /dev/sda1 then it should be hd0,1 in grub entry right?
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> tigertiger: do what?
[11:59] <jhan> just now i installed one service,service called opennms,manually i restarted opennms service ,it's working fine,but want permanent the service,how do i permanent the service???
[11:59] <histo> Is there anyway to retart a console I lost control of it.
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> oj_: in grub or grub2?
[11:59] <histo> ?
[11:59] <oj_> ActionParsnip, grub2
[11:59] <str0ng> jhan, you mean, run it automatically during startup?
[12:00] <jhan> yes
[12:00] <jhan> what is the command??
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> oj_: try hd1,1   then. i've ot played with it as i only single boot ubuntu
[12:00] <str0ng> jhan, I usually put it on my rc.local
[12:00] <tigertiger> bazhang :  i kown nothing about ubuntu...   even don't kown how to use the file on disk
[12:00] <str0ng> jhan, i defer to other suggestions
[12:01] <str0ng> jhan, or put it on your rc's
[12:01] <rip> hello i want to find a word from in my folders how can i found a world fromd in my folders..
[12:01] <bazhang> tigertiger, which file on disk do you refer to
[12:01] <jhan> ok
[12:01] <rip> for  example , i have example.php example1.php example2.php all files
[12:01] <tigertiger> :  Ubuntu 5.10 "Breezy Badger" - Release i386
[12:01] <rip> i want to search "exam" words from thats folders
[12:02] <histo> Is there anyway to retart a console I lost control of it?
[12:02] <tigertiger> bazhang:  how to install something that not exists in my ubuntu
[12:02] <histo> Like its froze completely but the other ttys work
[12:02] <str0ng> jhan, optionally, put your script to /etc/init.d then.. update-rc.d <name of script> defaults
[12:03] <str0ng> jhan, make sure your script is executable
[12:03] <epinky> histo: then kill the other tty process
[12:03] <[Elvis]> hej guys, how can i see after install if I installed server or desktop edition?
[12:03] <str0ng> jhan, for more info, $man update-rc.d
[12:03] <rip> heyy
[12:04] <str0ng> [Elvis], you can determine it easily via the installer you've used.
[12:04] <mrfelton> how can I install firefox 3.0 allongside 3.5?
[12:04] <[Elvis]> netboot installer
[12:04] <Appiah> what did you use to install [Elvis] ?
[12:04] <[Elvis]> http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/hardy-updates/main/installer-sparc/current/images/combined/2.6/
[12:04] <[Elvis]> that mini.iso in there
[12:04] <Appiah> mini
[12:04] <bazhang> tigertiger, breezy badger is long end of life; you need to go to www.ubuntu.com and get a more recent version
[12:04] <[Elvis]> Appiah ?
[12:05] <Appiah> thats the Tiny install
[12:05] <histo> epinky: it got killed restarted and its still froze
[12:05] <Appiah> its neither Desktop or Server
[12:05] <[Elvis]> ok ythx
[12:05] <Appiah> but more close to server then Desktop
[12:05] <tigertiger> bazhang:   Thank you i know  ,,,i will download new version of Ubuntu  9.10
[12:05] <[Elvis]> ok great
[12:06] <str0ng> [Elvis], IMHO, the only difference between server vs desktop install are the packages come along with them.
[12:06]  * KiRiLoS is away: Grand Theft Auto:Liberty City Stories
[12:06] <epinky> histo: killed restarted, what is that? use "kill -9 PID"
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> mrfelton: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> mrfelton: 3.5 and 3.0 are seperate apps :)
[12:06] <jhan> that's ok,please send me that script please
[12:07] <histo> epinky: no it retarted it self after it was killed.
[12:07] <p-f> I keep getting random delays when using my touchpad, usually when I first touch it. Why would that be? Works fine on windows.
[12:07] <dante90419> epinky, is a certain way to kill a prozess
[12:07] <[Elvis]> I'm trying to install ssh
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> [Elvis]: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[12:07] <histo> epinky: I need to restart anyway.
[12:07] <[Elvis]> but I get: a warning about fake-start-stop-daemon
[12:07] <wales> is it possible to write a script that i can tie to a hotkey will go to the adressbar of firefox from anywhere in the system, and even if firefox has a flashplayer focused?
[12:07] <[Elvis]> yeah I did that ActionParsnip...but I can't connect to port 22
[12:08] <[JackD]> is there any way to get the kernel to create a device node for a sda1p1 partition ?
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> [Elvis]: can you connect to localhost?
[12:08] <ESEDU> how do i find out my device URI
[12:08] <[Elvis]> what does this message about fake-start-stop-daemon mean?

[12:11] <[Elvis]> iyt does, I can connect
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> [Elvis]: you need to find out if it means the local or remote /dev/null and diagnose from there

[12:13] <ActionParsnip> ohletmeinnowjesu: i'd just copy the file, then cd to the location and extract

[12:14] <ohletmeinnowjesu> ActionParsnip: theres a bunch of files and theyre huge
[12:14] <kj4> Blizzerand: can you help me?
[12:14] <Valentina> Is there any way to check whatever a line has got a wrongly encoded character as a (?) inside a square? To check whatever the sting only has got valid characters?
[12:14] <Blizzerand> kj4 : Not sure , deleting /tmp shouldn't do any harm . Do you get any error messages when you boot
[12:14] <Valentina> Never mind, sorry.
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> ohletmeinnowjesu: bah, look at: man tar
[12:15] <Lint> Valentina, iconv should die with error if it encounters invalid characters
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> ohletmeinnowjesu: i think its -O  but i could be wrong
[12:15] <ohletmeinnowjesu> ActionParsnip: I did, and looked up "path" but that wasnt too helpful
[12:15] <kj4> Blizzerand: i might have deleted /etc too

[12:16] <indus> kj4: in a terminal type ls /
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> ohletmeinnowjesu: i'd test with a small file first though

[12:29] <demon_D_MAN> Hello!
[12:29] <subsam> Reading package lists... Done
[12:29] <subsam> Building dependency tree
[12:29] <subsam> Reading state information... Done
[12:29] <subsam> sun-java6-plugin is already the newest version.
[12:29] <subsam> The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
[12:29] <benxron> jahisthebalance, Odd.  I have seen that tab before but it isn't showing up at the moment.  Could it be that at boot my battery was unplugged?
[12:29] <FloodBot3> subsam: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:29] <subsam>   kaptain axel ttf-arabeyes libqt3-mt
[12:30] <indus> subsam: so whats the problem? its installed
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> subsam: use pastebin
[12:30] <nargazz> and then the screen begins to flash and i cant type anything
[12:30] <mrglosen> hello, my laptop has light sensor and it is showing too dark, hot keys are not working, any ideas how to lighter it? :)
[12:30] <indus> subsam: use paste.ubuntu.com for longer messages
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> subsam: you can clear that stuff with: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
[12:31] <jahisthebalance> I guess when all else fails ctrl alt bcksp
[12:31] <subsam> ...............?
[12:31] <nargazz> german ubuntu expert here?
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> jahisthebalance: alt+k+printscreen in karmic
[12:31] <indus> subsam: which package do you want to install
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> !de | nargazz
[12:31] <subsam> sun-java
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> !java | subsam
[12:31] <chrisbschw> Bear10: I don't think so. The user needs to be able to access a whole bunch of stuff in /usr/bin, /etc for the system to work.
[12:32] <benxron> also my battery properties say "Charge when full 15.3Wh". does anyone know if that charge would last longer than the 20min i get?
[12:32] <indus> subsam: its already installed
[12:32] <Bear10> chrisbschw, lets say he can access it but can you make it hidden so its not simply visible? or perhaps password protect it
[12:32] <subsam> no :)
[12:32] <subsam> :(
[12:32] <benxron> jahisthebalance, is the ctrl-alt-bksp a suggestion to me?
[12:32] <subsam> not installed
[12:32] <indus> subsam: ok type sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin
[12:33] <subsam> ok
[12:33] <jahisthebalance> yeah logout and back in... I mean, that's what I would do
[12:33] <indus> subsam: which package do you need exactly, there is bin, there is jre there is jdk
[12:33] <benxron> jahisthebalance, ok.
[12:33] <chrisbschw> Bear10: You should rather just chmod o-r the specific files you don't want the user to see. I think the only way to "hide" something in linux is to prefix it with a dot, like /.hiddendir, and that would screw everything up if you did that to the system folders.
[12:33] <indus> nargazz: so you say, only first ubuntu boots?
[12:33] <IP-v6> is there anyone use chromium and flushplugin ? i can't use flash player on embed youtube vids and facebook vids.
[12:34] <mrglosen> no ideas for me? :/
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: works fine here
[12:34] <subsam> could'nt find package sun-java6-bin
[12:34] <Bear10> chrisbschw, but even if its just readable, you can copy and paste it to your own directory which then makes it writeable
[12:34] <Bear10> i want to prevent them from being able to copy / paste it to their own place
[12:34] <indus> subsam: ok which version of ubuntu arfe you using?
[12:34] <chute> Hello to all. Any channel dedicated to noobish questions or Karmic/pulseaudio related issues. Thanks in advance for your help.
[12:34] <subsam> 9.10
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: symlink or copy the flashplugin into /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins/
[12:34] <IP-v6> ActionParsnip, i use x86_64 karmic but it doesnt work properly
[12:35] <indus> subsam: open synaptic package manager, go to settings>repositories>and enable universe repository
[12:35] <chrisbschw> Bear10: By definition, if it's readable, then it's copy/pastable.
[12:35] <subsam> where is it?
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: i use 64bit too, i use the alpha 64bit plugin. I just copied the .so file in there and added--enable-plugins to the launcher
[12:35] <Bear10> chrisbschw, that much i know, but i want to change this "readable" so you can only run it, and you cant copy / paste, somehow remove those features
[12:35] <indus> subsam: menu>system>administration>synaptic
[12:35] <indus> see?
[12:36] <slacker-> is su trying to do something with smbpasswd in the background?
[12:36] <gianluca> !it
[12:36] <chrisbschw> Aha, right. You can chmod o-rw on a file to not make it readable, and still being executable I think, but I'm not quite sure. What are you trying to accomplish? Is it a plain text script you want the user to be able to execute, but not read?
[12:36] <epinky> !ask | chute
[12:37] <indus> subsam: hello?
[12:38] <IP-v6> i installed flashpayerplugin-installer and flashplugin-nonfree packages.
[12:39] <ePax> I installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my HP mini 2133 and after some restarts it changed resolution. Since there is no xorg.conf i dong know how to change resolution. Native resolution on hp 2133 is 1024x600. Anyone know how to solve this problem? Resolution is now to big for my 9" screen.
[12:39] <IP-v6> ActionParsnip, it works fine with firefox
[12:39] <IP-v6> but not works fine with chromium
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: if you run:  sudo find / -iname "*.so" | grep flash       you will find the file, you can then symlink that file into the chromium plugins folder
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: yes, because the plugin is in the folder, its not in the chromium one so wont work
[12:40] <subsam> ya i'm looking for inable univers
[12:40] <indus> subsam: did you see repositories in settings
[12:40] <subsam> ya
[12:40] <indus> subsam: its on top menu in synaptic
[12:40] <calwig> hi
[12:40] <indus> subsam: so tick the universe
[12:41] <indus> subsam: community maintained open source software(universe) it says
[12:41] <chute> Since Karmic/pulseaudio, I can't use/activate my external microphone. Did it once, but I can't find the app that allowed to enable "external microphone" anymore. Searched for days now :(
[12:42] <subsam> ya i c it
[12:42] <floating_> I have installed the chromium-browser few times, and every time the flash has worked out of the box ( except some 4 months ago, when I needed to add the option to the launcher)
[12:42] <indus> subsam: if its not ticked, then tick it
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: it will be called libflashplugin.so I think.
[12:42] <chute> any suggestion greatly appreciated
[12:42] <floating_> even if i have installed the flash plugin before or after installing chromium browser
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> chute: isit muted?
[12:42] <indus> chute: hmm did you try the sound applet?
[12:43] <subsam> alreadu ticked
[12:43] <chute> yes, tried "all" applets and ways
[12:43] <ActionParsnip> floating_: i use the alpha 64bit flash so have to manualy copy the file to the plugins folder after removing all the firefox garbage
[12:43] <Younder> Flash doesn't work in the chromium browser
[12:43] <indus> subsam: ok then close this window, then in search , type sun
[12:43] <floating_> ActionParsnip: ok
[12:43] <chute> found it once and all worked - but not anymore
[12:43] <Younder> It is still in beta
[12:43] <ActionParsnip> Younder: course it does
[12:43] <indus> subsam: in synaptic main window it has a search window
[12:44] <Younder> ActionParsnip, not for me
[12:44] <floating_> what does gnome-alsa-mixer say about the mic
[12:44] <subsam> ya i make it
[12:44] <subsam> nothing
[12:44] <indus> subsam: so do you see a lot of sun packages
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> Younder: copy the libflashplugin.so to the chromium plugins folder then edit the chromium menu item to add --enable-plugins to the end of the command
[12:44] <Younder> ActionParsnip, I just get lines where the Flash window should go
[12:44] <floating_> gnome-alsamixer
[12:44] <indus> subsam: ok check on bottom left of synaptic, how many packages are listed
[12:45] <indus> subsam: some 25000 ?
[12:45] <IP-v6> i have copied libflashplayer.so
[12:45] <Younder> ActionParsnip, Now plugins are enableb by default
[12:45] <IP-v6> about:plugins page show its name is npwprapper.libfglashplayer.so
[12:45] <indus> IP-v6: you need to remove all old flash stuff
[12:46] <usuario> usuario

[12:46] <legend2440> subsam: sun-java6-bin is actually in the  Multiverse repo.  is Multiverse enabled?
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> Younder: i have 64bit flash and 64bit java in chromium
[12:46] <indus> legend2440: hmm thanks
[12:46] <chute> only beep muted - first capture REC in ticked - I stumbled on an app with "enable external mic", maybe via an app via terminal once only and it worked
[12:46] <scratchme> Hi all.  Is there a service for Linux users (specifically Ubuntu) which allows free rsync backups?  (2GB or so would be enough I think)
[12:46] <slacker-> No ideas about the "Failed to modify entry for user root." messages?
[12:46] <Younder> ActionParsnip, You are from Oslo?
[12:46] <indus> subsam: enable that too
[12:46] <subsam> it make force quit
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> Younder: UK
[12:47] <indus> subsam: force quit?
[12:47] <subsam> ya
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> Younder: the packages for flash and java have never worked for me and the use that nspluginwraper rubbish so I manually install and its perfect
[12:47] <indus> subsam: what means?
[12:47] <legend2440> subsam: after enabling repos  press Reload button
[12:47] <subsam> no
[12:47] <Younder> ActionParsnip, I see, thanks
[12:48] <indus> subsam: ok synaptic open or close now?
[12:48] <subsam> the packege manger after search became sloly and sloly and force quite
[12:48] <subsam> clth
[12:48] <subsam> cloth
[12:48] <indus> subsam:
[12:49] <indus> subsam: ok type sudo apt-get upgrade
[12:49] <subsam> ok ok
[12:49] <indus> subsam: first we update the system  , then try all other things
[12:49] <subsam> i open it againg
[12:49] <IP-v6> indus, is apt-get purge flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfree enough to remove old stuff ?
[12:49] <subsam> i have 6 listes in there
[12:50] <indus> IP-v6: maybe npviewer still is there who knows
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: i'd add --purge too   get the old configs out :)
[12:50] <subsam> i just make up date ?
[12:50] <indus> subsam: yes
[12:50] <scratchme> Has anyone here used SpiderOak?  ( http://www.spideroak.com/ ) and is it good?
[12:51] <indus> scratchme: why dont you try ubuntu one?
[12:51] <subsam> do u thinck that i must cloth the pachage manger first
[12:52] <indus> subsam: yes
[12:52] <scratchme> indus, I was trying to remember the name of it, but I couldn't remember.
[12:52] <Bear10> chrisbschw, sorry was eating, yes i want an executable to work which is installed in the OS like firefox or open office, but i dont want a user to be able to copy and paste the application files to their directory
[12:52] <scratchme> indus, how easily does it integrate with the system?
[12:52] <pll3947744> hello. i have a pretty big problem. i have created a side panel in the right side. I set the option to autohide, and now it is now going vissible when i move over the mouse. i know its there because i can see a thin draw (sorry for my english)
[12:52] <furuno> hmm, it seems that I can't increase the number of desktops in compizconfig settings manager, any suggestion to do this?
[12:52] <subsam> ask me
[12:52] <indus> scratchme: well, its default install on 9.10, syncs auto and gives 2 gb just like this site
[12:52] <subsam> y/n ?
[12:53] <indus> subsam: y
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: it doesnt seem to support linux, its also offtopic
[12:53] <scratchme> indus, let me check it out.  Thanks.
[12:53] <IP-v6> ActionParsnip, how can i install flashplayer now ?  should i download it from adobe web page ?
[12:53] <scratchme> ActionParsnip, it does.  It has a hardy heron.
[12:53] <subsam> proccing
[12:53] <indus> ActionParsnip: iam telling him about ubuntu one, and yes the link does support ubuntu
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: seems they do have a linux client, my mistake
[12:53] <subsam> proscing
[12:53] <scratchme> ActionParsnip, I wasn't aware backup apps for Ubuntu was offtopic, sorry.
[12:54] <chrisbschw> Bear10: I think thats impossible, to execute something you have to be able to read the file. I'm no hardcore expert though, so there might be a way. But I can't think of an easy way to accomplish that. May I ask why you want to do this?
[12:54] <indus> subsam: ok when this is over, you go to repositories again and enable the multiverse also
[12:54] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: copy the .so file you extracted from the tar.gz to /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins
[12:54] <indus> subsam: i go smoke
[12:54] <Bear10> chrisbschw, to setup a system for my house so no one touches things they shouldnt
[12:54] <subsam> ok
[12:54] <subsam> ok
[12:54] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: no, its just not an official package so we cannot really support it
[12:54] <Bear10> its full of computer illiterates and i dont want them using windows either lol
[12:54] <subsam> don't smoke very much
[12:55] <subsam> i will need u after it over :)
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: the guide seems painless enough though
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: give it a go. Ive not heard of it
[12:55] <scratchme> ActionParsnip, I got what I wanted anyway.  I just wanted some backup system online which works.  It was my first question.  That one came after I got no answer.
[12:55] <saracen1> hi
[12:55] <subsam> proseccing
[12:55] <chrisbschw> Bear10: Well. Noone will be able to alter the system files. And the worst thing that can happen is that they mess up their own homedir. By default everything that's supposed to be secret is already chmodded that way so that normal users can't damage the system.
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: $10 for 100Gb / month aint bad at all
[12:55] <sobersabre> hi guys, I've got a problem with recreating ubuntu after changing partitions.
[12:55] <sobersabre> I had a wrong partitioning scheme.
[12:56] <sobersabre> So I backed up / and other partitions, and repartitioned the hard disk.
[12:56] <scratchme> ActionParsnip, I'm doing this gratis for some retired guy.  I think he'll want whatever is free first ;)
[12:56] <saracen1> had a general question, when installing stuff using the package manager, the downloads are very slow, is there a way to speed them up ? i am getting like 1/4 of the speed of my connection
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: why not just buy a 1Tb HDD, backup to that then disconnect the device?
[12:56] <sobersabre> now I've restored their contents, but there's a problem with grub setup.
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: ubuntuone gives a small amount of space
[12:56] <Bear10> chrisbschw, well i know that much but im just uneasy with them being able to copy paste stuff they shouldnt, i want to make it so the only things they have in their home directory are things they save from applications
[12:56] <Bear10> tryin to limit it to that point
[12:56] <furuno> saracen1 : indeed it's the problem with apt-get
[12:56] <scratchme> ActionParsnip, said retired guy has no computer skills.  Less user intervention = win
[12:56] <sobersabre> what I do is: mount the root fs on /tmp/tmp
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: true
[12:56] <sobersabre> then chroot /tmp/tmp
[12:56] <yadudoc> Hi, I am not ubuntu9.10 and gnome-do hangs immediately after a boot and I have to kill the app... is there any fix for this ?
[12:57] <sobersabre> and from there I hoped to run grub, etc.
[12:57] <sobersabre> but when I chroot, I can see that /dev is empty.
[12:57] <saracen1> furuno:  so is there a way to fix it ?
[12:57] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: could setup a cron job to scp the data to your system, you could be his backup
[12:57] <subsam> indus
[12:57] <sobersabre> can somebody elaborate on this subj ?
[12:57] <subsam> indus
[12:57] <furuno> saracen1 : haven't found it yet, my apt-get download also very slow
[12:57] <saracen1> ok
[12:57] <furuno> saracen1 : my suggestion is, to download larga package manually from packages.ubuntu.com
[12:58] <chrisbschw> Bear10: Well, all the system stuff is really not a secret. The only thing I can think of I would be uneasy about exposing would be /etc/shadow, which contains MD5 hashes of everyone's passwords. But noone can access that file. Try it yourself without being root.
[12:58] <scratchme> ActionParsnip, I considered trying to setup an ftp/sftp mounted as a folder which points to a part of my webhosting, but if this is built-in, I can be hit by a truck, and it still works.
[12:58] <indus> subsam: what
[12:58] <saracen1> ok
[12:58] <indus> subsam: what happened
[12:58] <subsam> the listes now is 5
[12:58] <subsam> not 6
[12:58] <Sergeant_Pony> is it possible to run 9.10 under vmware with a composite screen?
[12:58] <indus> subsam: what is 5
[12:58] <Bear10> chirsbschw, hmph i wish there were some way of making it "invisible" / "hidden" but i guess there really isnt a way
[12:58] <scratchme> ActionParsnip, is the 2GB licensed in Ubuntu one per user on the system?
[12:59] <subsam> the package lestes
[12:59] <subsam> listes *
[12:59] <Bear10> like itd be okay if it was atleast hidden heh
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: you can install openssh-server then configure his system to upload his stuff at midnight to your system via scp, You can then even archive it off using rsync after the upload to form a differential backup
[12:59] <indus> subsam: what? i dont understand
[12:59] <gartral> upgradeing packages and debconf came up asking me what to do with grub..
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> scratchme: no idea. ive never used it
[12:59] <subsam> u asked me haw muck listes in pachage manger
[12:59] <indus> scratchme: yes its per user
[13:00] <subsam> u remmeber ?
[13:00] <om26er> what is the boottime for people using karmic. is it better than jaunty for you?
[13:00] <pronoy> om26er: yes
[13:00] <scratchme> When confronted with the "Update Manager"  Is it best to "Install Updates" or "upgrade" on a fresh 9.10 install?
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> gartral: use the maintainers unless you have customised grub yourself, either way you will be editting the system
[13:00] <indus> subsam: yes it should show 25000 or some packages listed, 0 broken, 0 to remove etc
[13:00] <Ciylana> hi guys. The kubuntu livecd keeps shutting off my laptop and seemingly random times, I cant even get through the installer. Any ideas? Its not over heating, doesnt get chance for that!
[13:00] <chrisbschw> Bear10: Well, it really is kinda 'invisible', the only way to access it would be having the root password, or removing the disk and reading the files from another system. Either way, if the other people using the system are novices, they really won't end up in / anyway, if they use the GUI primarily.
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> om26er: i dont reboot much but karmic seems faster
[13:00] <bilalakhtar> yes the boottime is better in karmic because karmic uses upstart for the boot process
[13:00] <om26er> bilalakhtar: does that really matter?
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> Ciylana: did you run the cd self tester? did you run a ram tester?
[13:01] <gartral> ActionParsnip: it wont mess up seeing grub+win on the one drive and the linux partitions on the others, will it?
[13:01] <subsam> and now
[13:01] <Bear10> chrisbschw, true that, thanks :)
[13:01] <Bear10> i guess i should be at ease
[13:01] <furuno> hello, it seems that I can't increase the number of desktops from compizconfig settings manager, any thought? screenshot -> http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/9985/screenshoty.jpg
[13:01] <Ciylana> i didnt run the self tester becaause freebsd and gentoo has the same problem (oddly, windows is fine)
[13:01] <om26er> !ureadahead
[13:01] <bilalakhtar> om26er: I dont think so. the boottime difference might be only 2-3 seconds shorter, and the shutdown one will be 5-6 seconds shorter
[13:01] <scratchme> Nevermind, I got it.  I thought this VM was 9.10, but it's 9.04.
[13:01] <subsam> it's already enable
[13:01] <IP-v6> indus, ActionParsnip , i have downloaded 64bit version flashplayer. it worked. thanks.
[13:01] <Sjors> I'm installing Ubuntu on the laptop of a friend of mine
[13:02] <om26er> bilalakhtar: ya shudown is really quick here
[13:02] <indus> subsam:it should show 25000 or some packages listed, 0 broken, 0 to remove etc
[13:02] <Sjors> she has a 300 GB NTFS partition which had 70GB free, don't know where exactly
[13:02] <raik> is there any good parental control and log keeping software for ubuntu?
[13:02] <indus> subsam: at bottom of synaptic
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> gartral: it may, get the installer to show the differences, you could backup the current config and then reinstate what you have in some way
[13:02] <indus> subsam: what do u see
[13:02] <Sjors> we made an Ubuntu partition of 40 GB at the end of that partition
[13:02] <vadviktor> Anyone using a Jaxer server here?
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: np man, the package versions for flash and java are garbage imo
[13:02] <Sjors> Anyway
[13:02] <bilalakhtar> om26er: Well, after I installed LAMP (linux apache mysql php) my bootup has become 4 seconds slower and shutdown 3 seconds slower
[13:03] <bilalakhtar> om26er: well that doesnt matter
[13:03] <Sjors> It's making that partition now, I guess it's resizing the Windows partition
[13:03] <Sjors> It's been on 0% for half an hour now, is that normal? (taking 40 GB off the end of a Windows partition in the Ubuntu installer)
[13:03] <bilalakhtar> om26er: because i cant live without apache
[13:03] <subsam> 4 packages listed and 1397 installed
[13:03] <Ciylana> if i disable apic, will my laptop fry itself?
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> IP-v6: you will have to manually update the plugin yourself so keep an eye on the page yu downloaded from for updates
[13:03] <matmatmat> is there an easy way to transfer all partitions and bootloader and everything to a bigger hard disk?
[13:03] <indus> subsam: hmm ok press reload
[13:03] <furuno> Sjors : It is highly recommended that you defrag the partition beforehand
[13:03] <subsam> ok
[13:04] <Sjors> furuno: Windows defrag is enough?
[13:04] <indus> subsam: change the server
[13:04] <IP-v6> i will
[13:04] <furuno> Sjors : yes
[13:04] <indus> subsam: go to that repositories again and select main server
[13:04] <zuberot> hello, can anyone tell how to make custom task in tasksel list, i'm trying this http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-boot@lists.debian.org/msg66370.html but nothing
[13:04] <subsam> pefor reload ?
[13:04] <subsam> or after ?
[13:04] <bilalakhtar> subsam: change th Ubuntu server to "main server"
[13:04] <Sjors> furuno: can I reboot safely while it's changing partition size?
[13:04] <indus> subsam:before
[13:04] <subsam> how change ?
[13:04] <furuno> Sjors : I don't guarantee that :|
[13:04] <indus> subsam: do it first , go to prefere>repos>
[13:05] <deadowl> I was scrolling through comments on reddit and my screen became scrambled and my speakers started kerchinging (with no audio streams happening). Has anyone experienced anything remotely similar?
[13:05] <mobileuser> how can i change sensitivity of a touchpad (synaptics touchpad) in ubuntu?
[13:05] <Sjors> furuno: do you think the resize is safe? :)
[13:05]  * indus mumbles to himself, this is tiring
[13:05] <Sjors> i.e. it will only change records after copying the data
[13:05] <furuno> Sjors : safe enough for me, if you defrag beforehand :)
[13:05] <subsam> do u mean mark behind community ?
[13:06] <furuno> Sjors, think of this as a partition [XXX X    XX  X                      X] (X is data, space is empty space)
[13:06] <meowpup> hi all anyone know how to run this application. here is the destination folder http://imagebin.ca/view/u3fNBXB.html
[13:06] <Sjors> furuno: I know how it works and what it does
[13:06] <sobersabre> guys... I need help with booting without working grub.
[13:06] <indus> subsam: no it says 'download from..... '
[13:06] <Sjors> furuno: just wanted to know how long it usually takes :)
[13:06] <furuno> Sjors, look that data on the end might interrupting the resize operation
[13:06] <mataks> help pls. i have no audio on my 9.10....  just upgraded from 9.04
[13:06] <indus> subsam: click on it and select main server
[13:06] <gartral> ActionParsnip: http://gar.pastebin.com/mf9f41aa <- i cant make heads or tails out of that.. if you asked me, id'e say it wants to replace GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 with a period.
[13:06] <sobersabre> I can boot into live CD, but I don't want to reinstall the system, just to fix the grub installation...
[13:06] <furuno> Sjors, so that's why defrag is highly recommended
[13:06] <mobileuser> can anyone help me how to change the sensitivity of my synaptics touchpad in ubuntu?
[13:07] <ahox> sobersabre: You can try the install cd to boot into rescue mode and then chroot to fix your grub
[13:07] <mobileuser> it doesnt work well
[13:07] <gartral> ActionParsnip: *but what does that do?
[13:07] <Sjors> furuno: but the Ubuntu installer does run a defrag for the parts that will be gone, too
[13:07] <zuberot> hello, can anyone tell how to make custom task in tasksel list, i'm trying this http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-boot@lists.debian.org/msg66370.html but nothing
[13:07] <ActionParsnip> gartral: looks like its just deleting the line
[13:07] <deadowl> double post: I was scrolling through comments on reddit and my screen became scrambled and my speakers started kerchinging (with no audio streams happening). Has anyone experienced anything remotely similar?
[13:07] <ActionParsnip> gartral: not sure though
[13:07] <meowpup> sobersabre: what is wrong with grub
[13:07] <pll3947744> restarted gdm.. that did not do it
[13:07] <furuno> Sjors : then try wait for another hours
[13:07] <subsam> no no i'm talking about the first
[13:07] <gartral> ActionParsnip: it won't hurt anything... as i dont have any hidden partitions
[13:07] <inh> im havin gissues with wpa_supplicant
[13:07] <inh> it wont daemonize
[13:07] <indus> subsam: what first
[13:07] <sobersabre> ahox: is ( "live CD" != "install CD" ) ?
[13:08] <furuno> repost : it seems that I can't increase the number of desktops from compizconfig settings manager, any thought? screenshot -> http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/9985/screenshoty.jpg

[13:09] <indus> subsam: yes
[13:09] <subsam> ok
[13:09] <subsam> what after ?

[13:09] <mobileuser> i want to increase the sensitivity of my touchpad in ubuntu. synaptics touchpad. how can i do this?
[13:09] <meowpup> ok sobersabre so what i understand is that you need to point grub loader to the new location thats easy
[13:10] <subsam> where download form ?
[13:10] <ahox> sobersabre: So go into rescue mode, mount your and partitions and edit the menu.lst or /etc/grub/... (depends on wether you use grub 1 or 2)
[13:10] <indus> subsam: below the tick options
[13:10] <subsam> ok
[13:10] <indus> subsam: dont you see in the window
[13:10] <indus> fc
[13:10] <gartral> ActionParsnip: im just going to log the diff and change it if it breaks my boot order

[13:20] <indus> subsam: ill see you in 10 min
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> killerinthesun: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[13:21] <aaron11_> !isitout
[13:21] <gabriel_> I have an Nvidia Geforce 8400
[13:21] <om26er> !torrents | aaron11_
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> killerinthesun: unless you use dnsmasq for dns caching in which case that should be restarted in a similar fashion
[13:21] <subsam> ok
[13:21] <sobersabre> robin0800: what's the syntax ?
[13:21] <Younder> ubuntu comes with transmission, bit-torrent
[13:21] <aaron11_> !syntax
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> transmission rocks :D
[13:22] <bazhang> aaron11_, /msg ubottu please
[13:22] <om26er> Younder: and ?
[13:22] <killerinthesun> ActionParsnip: thanks
[13:22] <inh> has anyone had issues with excruciatingly slow wifi access using wpa supplicant?
[13:22] <gabriel_> I installed lm-sensors, but I dont understand it, when I type sensors on terminal I see temp1, temp2,etc.. but I would like to know what are those, hard drive, CPU, etc
[13:22] <inh> i think this could be caused by it not being run as a daemon and instead just exiting prematurely
[13:22] <Younder> om26er, o installing  external software for it is unnessesary
[13:23] <Younder> get xchat and the pan newsreader instead
[13:23] <sobersabre> robin0800: can you point me to a web page with info on the ubuntu "rescue" options (9.10) ?
[13:23] <om26er> Younder: thanx. but you can always install better thing like deluge
[13:23] <xukun> does anybody have google street view working in firefox?
[13:24] <freewillie> It works for me
[13:24] <kuyumi> kkkk
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> xukun: uses flash doesnt it?
[13:24] <killerinthesun> ActionParsnip: perfect, thank you :-)
[13:24] <xukun> ActionParsnip, I'm not sure but I think so
[13:24] <robin0800> sobersabre: you just select it and it will eventually come to a list of actions you can then perform
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> xukun: can you view flash stuff?
[13:24] <Younder> Well  use Chrome rather than firefox, simply beause it is faster and more robut
[13:25] <Younder> robust
[13:25] <sobersabre> robin0800: I have "boot from first hard disk"
[13:25] <sobersabre> I don't have an option for "Rescue"
[13:25] <sobersabre> I am talking about LiveCD boot.
[13:25] <freewillie> Does anyone know how to solve the wmv sound problem
[13:25] <xukun> ActionParsnip, I can view youtube staff does that count?
[13:25] <sobersabre> grub on the hard disk is a mess.
[13:25] <freewillie> ??
[13:25] <sobersabre> Shall I d/l alternate CD ?
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> xukun: yeah thats a good test
[13:25] <om26er> Younder: i use it already
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> xukun: what messages do you get when you view it?
[13:25] <robin0800> sobersabre: you need an alternate cd to get that option
[13:25] <JediMaster> lol, I just got 25.5MB/sec from the UK(GB) mirror on a do-release-upgrade =)
[13:26] <JediMaster> (gigabit connection to the net)
[13:26] <batang_g> has anyone ever tried Salome-Meca 2009 with ubuntu 9.10? i cant enter the "Geometry" part, i always encounter a fatal error, "please check vblank_mode parameter." does anyone know how to get through this?
[13:27] <freewillie> or does nobody know?
[13:27] <xukun> ActionParsnip, any idea? does street view work for you?
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> freewillie: install w32codecs (or w64codecs for 64bit) from the medibuntu repo
[13:27] <sobersabre> robin0800: ok.
[13:27] <sobersabre> thanks.
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> xukun: not tried it
[13:27] <sobersabre> I'm downloading the alternate now.
[13:27] <sobersabre> hell!
[13:27] <xukun> ActionParsnip, do you mind?
[13:28] <freewillie> ActionParsnip: thanks
[13:28] <sobersabre> I don't know what's faster: reinstall + update or download alternate....
[13:28] <alienkid10> how come when I run  "schroot -c Kaemic -u root" as my normal user it's asks for a password? What do I give it?
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> xukun: im on my work lappy right now, i'll hit it later
[13:28] <sobersabre> :)
[13:28] <xukun> ActionParsnip, night np
[13:28] <om26er> freewillie: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[13:28] <Younder> wine alows you to run some windows programs under linux
[13:28] <xukun> Does anybody else have google street view working?
[13:28] <freewillie> om26er: thanks too
[13:29] <robin0800> sobersabre: IMHO an alternate cd is always better than the live one
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> robin0800 + 1
[13:29] <rasmus_> Hi! I had some fan trouble on my laptop and replaced the DSDT.aml file to see if it would work then. I have now found a possible solution which requires the originl DSDT.aml file to be reinstalled, but I don't know where to find it... Does anyone know? I'm on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo L1310G
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> robin0800: i use the ulite one personally, less installed default apps :)
[13:29] <om26er> ActionParsnip: how is it better
[13:30] <Ensamhet> How do I know what server OS the website is running?
[13:30] <Younder> rasmus_, replace the fan..
[13:30] <alienkid10> any ideas?
[13:30] <batang_g> has anyone ever tried Salome-Meca 2009 with ubuntu 9.10? i cant enter the "Geometry" part, i always encounter a fatal error, "please check vblank_mode parameter." please, does anyone know how to get through this?
[13:30] <rasmus_> Younder: Good idea, but I think the problem is in the BIOS :)
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> om26er: ubuntu comes with a whole bunch of stuff I never use as well as a tonne of drivers which bloat the system further, minimal allows you to install noly what you need
[13:31] <freewillie> my problem?
[13:31] <indus> subsam: ok?
[13:31] <indus> subsam: installed?
[13:32] <alienkid10> how come when I run  "schroot -c Karmic -u root" as my normal user it's asks for a password? What do I give it?
[13:32] <om26er> how can i install ubuntu base system only
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> om26er: you can get an insanely lean system by ulite then lxde. If you are just gonna install ubuntu-desktop package then you are wasting your time with ulite
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> alienkid10: try your login pass or the pass of the account you are chrooting to
[13:33] <Ensamhet> How do I know what server OS the website is running? in ubuntu
[13:33] <alienkid10> what would a debootstraped root pass be?
[13:33] <jpbaa1> with firestarter firewall running, i am unable to access shares on my laptop & vice versa.  what am i missing?
[13:33] <alienkid10> I tried my pass already
[13:33] <aftertaf> hey :)

[13:35] <fanboi> sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:35] <aftertaf> fanboi: thats old grub, not new grub !
[13:36] <fanboi> tmk, grub has no "GUI"
[13:36] <jpbaa1> is there an advantage to updating to "new" grub2
[13:36] <aftertaf> jpbaa1: fresh install of karmic, i didnt have the choice ;)
[13:36] <crazymary> exit

[13:38] <om26er> jpbaa1: here are its features: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-2.en.html
[13:38] <crazyspai> Davey: Change your system proxy.
[13:38] <fanboi> odd,  grub2 didn't come with my 9.10,  I still have to edit the old fashion way
[13:38] <crazyspai> Davey: System>Preferences>Network Proxy
[13:38] <Davey> crazyspai: where? the proxy here not have restrictions.., ok lets me see
[13:38] <TwoD> fanboi: I didn't get it either
[13:38] <om26er> fanboi: you upgraded and it asked you whether to keep legacy or go to grub2
[13:38] <BasiumDeJudas> hello all
[13:39] <crazyspai> Davey: Even if you have a proxy setup at your work they require all packages to pass-through it
[13:39] <om26er> !hi | BasiumDeJudas

[13:39] <fanboi> I c,  I must have missed that,  I kept the old one because I don't mind editing config files
[13:39] <crazyspai> Davey: The same proxy IP or URL you have in firefox needs to be applied to your network proxy setting.
[13:40] <fanboi> is grub 2 buggy at this point or is it stable?
[13:40] <Davey> crazyspai: before i did use all with the proxy configuration.. i can use firefox now.. and the proxy settings are good... but synaptic and updates give me a error.
[13:40] <TwoD> om26er: I did not upgrade from 9.04, didn't get it either. I did chose on which disk to install it since it wanted to put it on my IDE instead of SATA disk...
[13:41] <crazyspai> Davey: You applied the proxy settings to the system proxy settings as well?
[13:41] <icebear1981> hi there. i have a sound problem. every time on restart the sound works but later there is no sound anymore. could anybody help me ?

[13:42] <aftertaf> om26er: thank you for the wiki grub2 link. Explains it all perfectly and i've done what i wanted to do :)
[13:42] <crazyspai> Davey: Usually, you only need to apply it on the system network settings...

[13:48] <coz_> Speculater, mm ok if no one can help here I suggest going to ##linux channel
[13:48] <crazyspai> coz_: It's the installer that is hanging. At 91MB/5GB it gives an error.
[13:48] <Speculater> I have a complete system lock up when Grub tries to load
[13:48] <Speculater> screen flickers making input impossible
[13:48] <bazhang> messiah, thought you were asking about gnome ; not sure about xfce4
[13:49] <Speculater> and it wants to load me into a terminal
[13:49] <crazyspai> coz_: I already have an account. I just recently went full-time Linux after using Linux VM for a while.
[13:49] <Speculater> I just did a brand new fresh install

[13:49] <om26er> Speculater: did a new install . upgraded to karmic or just happened on you working install?
[13:49] <sivang> has anyone saw these after the last upgrade of firefox in 8.04
[13:49] <sivang> ?
[13:49] <sivang> http://pastie.org/693613
[13:49] <sivang> it appears in a window
[13:49] <jeffmr> is it possible to use the migration assistant from an install of wubi after the install is done?
[13:49] <Speculater> I originally upgraded had same problem
[13:49] <sivang> and everytime I enter an address it gives me this popup
[13:49] <Speculater> no one knew how to help me
[13:50] <sivang> and I can't navigate nowhere

[13:50] <Speculater> So I downloaded the install disk and did a complete re-install fresh.

[13:54] <bdancer> hey all
[13:54] <om26er> icebear1981: sound must be muted
[13:54] <om26er> !hi | bdancer
[13:55] <fanboi> geos^, system > sdministration > Hardware Drivers
[13:55] <Younder> he is right gnome is not there
[13:55] <bdancer> i've just installed virtual-box and it break my route table - why so?
[13:55] <geos^> is not there emty
[13:55] <jeffmr> !crazyspai I see Ubuntu server in the left with ubuntu under but no way in views to open anything to the right
[13:55] <Speculater> eh, I will just re-re-install
[13:55] <Speculater> this is nuts
[13:56] <Jimi_Neutral> is there a way to find out my home router's external ip address from a remote location?
[13:56] <Jimi_Neutral> sorry wrong channel
[13:56] <Speculater> Worst part is this error is repeating, and I can't report it to Ubuntu
[13:56] <TwoD> Jimi_Neutral: try dyndns

[13:56] <crazyspai> Jeffmr: At the top it's view>users
[13:56] <sohail> I switched to kubuntu because windows was running like trash, but I've had kubuntu for less than an hour and it's putting out at like 5-10fps
[13:57] <mynyml> if i install and reuse the same /home partition, don't I expose my system to issues of newer versions of the apps not being backwords compatible with their own config files? is this a common problem?
[13:57] <fanboi> geos^, you have to tell it to d/l and apply the proprietary driver from there otherwise consult your video hardwares support channels to get the driver from them
[13:57] <geos^> ther no drivers
[13:57] <Halitech> sohail, what video card do you have?
[13:57] <jeffmr> ! crazyspai I don't have users listed in view
[13:57] <Younder> sohail, gnome is faster
[13:57] <Halitech> fanboi, geos^ proper driver is open source and its openchrome
[13:57] <om26er> icebear1981: what about right click on the speaker icon in the notication area and go to sound properties and take a tour there?
[13:57] <crazyspai> Jeffmr: Try pressing ctrl+F7
[13:57] <bazhang> jeffmr, no need for the ! at the beginning of your answer
[13:57] <geos^> fanboi but how

[14:06] <Halitech> boomer84, a server is a server, doesn't really matter if its local or on the net
[14:06] <sohail> Like, here's the thing, it was running fine 10 minutes ago before I started running this IRC client. It was handling everything perfect
[14:06] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[14:06] <om26er> !help | younas
[14:06] <icebear1981> @om26er: any ideas ?
[14:06] <younas> i am experiencing a problem with the a wine application: the font is too small and does really change with me increasing or decreasing the dpi in wineconfig. The fonts on the window change but the actual searches that i get are too small for me to see
[14:06] <crankyadmin> o/
[14:06] <om26er> !hi | BluesKaj
[14:06] <younas> blueskaj how are you?
[14:06] <om26er> icebear1981: sorry no idea!
[14:07] <BluesKaj> younas, just fine thanks , and you ?
[14:07] <boomer84> Halitech: kinda what I figured. so I just set it up as per the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP and I will be able to run all my testing through that?
[14:07] <arand> mataks: try http://drowninginbugs.blogspot.com/2009/10/caveats-for-audio-in-910.html and http://unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/525-resolve-nosound-problem-on-ubuntu910-karmic-koala
[14:07] <younas> well you cant expect a newbie to be happy
[14:07] <geos^> do i need x11 driver vga
[14:07] <fanboi> geos^,
[14:07] <younas> remember the advice i took on sound issues
[14:07] <younas> after rebooting my system kubuntu crashed
[14:08] <younas> gave em a disk error that couldnt be fixed
[14:08] <younas> so i gave up on kde
[14:08] <arand> mataks: what does uname -a give you?
[14:08] <Younder> sound need to be explicity enabled for created users
[14:08] <Halitech> boomer84, yes, if you don't want it accesable from the net, just make sure your router isn't set to portforward port 80 to your system
[14:08] <om26er> younas: Gnome
[14:08] <younas> and shifted to gnome
[14:08] <Younder> Then it works fine
[14:08] <fanboi> geos^, please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome it will explain why you cant find open chrome and how to configure your xorg.cong
[14:08] <mataks> arand, Linux mataks-desktop 2.6.31-15-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 10 14:54:29 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[14:08] <TwoD> Only the buttons, and tapping the pen, works on my Wacom in Karmic. I wanted to try wacdump but can't find the device.
[14:08] <boomer84> Can I block port 80 locally rather than on the router? I tend to use wireless in random guesthouses and hotels
[14:09] <fanboi> geos^, "The via driver and the xserver-xorg-video-via package are no longer available in Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex). "
[14:09] <younas> well i was on kde when i last spoke to blueskaj but then it crashed when i rebooted so ive switched to ubuntu and its working fine so far and a bit too easy
[14:09] <BluesKaj> younas, well I don' tremember exactly , there are too many  to remember all those who have audio issues
[14:09] <younas> however i am experiencing problems with wine
[14:09] <younas> yeah i dont blame you
[14:09] <arand> mataks: ok so it seems the kernel is correct, so look at the other points in that first link.
[14:09] <Halitech> boomer84, there should be an option in apache2.conf to only listen on localhost
[14:09] <younas> kde is too complicated for a newbie anyway
[14:10] <younas> or at least i would like to think so
[14:10] <nonama> try gnome ...
[14:10] <BluesKaj> wine isn't my forte'
[14:10] <boomer84> Halitech: Cheers, I will give it a go. Thanks for the advice
[14:10] <Younder> boomer84, yes, use the firewall. UFW
[14:10] <younas> im using gnome now
[14:10] <boomer84> oooo a firewall, I knew I'd forget something.....
[14:10] <nonama> welcome to gnome younas ...: D
[14:10] <Halitech> Younder, why not just configure apache to only listen to localhost and 127.0.0.1? probably easier then setting up a firewall rule
[14:11] <olvap> hi, i have a question about symlink, if i create a new one, in the same place, this, replace the old one? the old one is rewrite ir? or delete it?
[14:11] <arand> mataks: the unixmen link I gave has more instructions on how to install the backports package
[14:11] <Younder> Halitech, that works too
[14:11] <younas> ok anyone on wine? i the fonts are too small in a vb6 app called bit-che. the fonts on the window change by tweaking the dpi but search engine hits and everything else remains unchanged
[14:11] <younas> nonama thanks !
[14:12] <boomer84> Later all. ty for the help
[14:12] <erUSUL> younas: #winehq
[14:12] <mataks> arand,  ok thnx ill give it a try
[14:13] <younas> erusul please clarify if its a developers channel or a support channel. i normally was told to go elsewhere when  i was using kde forums on irc
[14:13] <patricidio> hi
[14:13] <BluesKaj> younas, frankly I don't think audio issuers are caused by the desktop environment as much as the relationship your HW has with kernel source modules, pulseaudio and alsa.
[14:14] <erUSUL> !wine | younas
[14:14] <fanboi> anyone gotten the new CoD up and running with wine yet?
[14:15] <younas> blueskaj i dont blame you for the crash. i think i probably must have scewed up something. In fact, i appreciate the assistance you gave me. Ive concluded that i am just no ready for kde at this point.
[14:16] <iamkitchen> Can someone help me out? None of my applications have windows (title bar, minimize/maximize/close buttons, etc)
[14:16] <om26er> iamkitchen: w8
[14:16] <JerVA> iamkitchen, you mean that you cannot see any windows such as Applications, Places, System ?
[14:16] <iamkitchen> i can see that
[14:16] <iamkitchen> but like for example i open firefox
[14:16] <iamkitchen> it's just a webpage
[14:16] <grawity> iamkitchen: Try starting "compiz" or "metacity" from terminal.
[14:17] <BluesKaj> younas, as long as you're happy with gnome and it obviously works on your setup then that's a good thing :)
[14:17] <om26er> iamkitchen: http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/switch-the-closemaximizeminimize-buttons-to-left-side-in-ubuntu/
[14:17] <phaer> iamkitchen: metacity --replace in terminal
[14:17] <icedwater> iamkitchen: something in your window manager might have stumbled.
[14:17] <fcuk112> iamkitchen: try running fusion-icon and right-click, reload window manager.
[14:17] <fanboi> iamkitchen, try typing metacity --replace or compiz --replace
[14:17] <iamkitchen> i can't even type in terminal o_o
[14:17] <icedwater> Or Alt-F2, then either of those commands
[14:17] <icedwater> You can type, you just can't see it :P
[14:17] <iamkitchen> no when I type
[14:17] <iamkitchen> it goes into my chat window
[14:18] <icedwater> (If that is the problem.)
[14:18] <fcuk112> iamkitchen: you can use alt and mouse to drag windows still.
[14:18] <iamkitchen> :|
[14:18] <icedwater> Oh?
[14:18] <fanboi> iamkitchen, press alt F2 and enter metacity --replace
[14:18] <phaer> iamkitchen: another options is to log out and log in again...
[14:18] <TwoD> How do I figure out the device for my Wacom? All I find from dmesg is /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/usb2/2-5/2-5:1.0/bluetooth/hci0/hci0:46/input10 and that doesn't work with wacdump
[14:18] <kunnu531> Hi All
[14:18] <kunnu531> Hi, Could you please give me some suggestions. my root partition is / shows as 100% . After running apt-get clean and autoclean it came to 98%
[14:18] <iamkitchen> hold on a window popped up and its blocking the chat text
[14:18] <iamkitchen> :[
[14:19] <phaer> iamkitchen: because if you do so metacity/compiz (depends if you have special effects enabled) gets restarted
[14:19] <kunnu531> Any ideas what more steps can be done ?
[14:19] <Halitech> !pastebin | kunnu531 can you post the output of df -h using pastebin
[14:19] <fanboi> iamkitchen, do you have emerald installed?
[14:19] <iamkitchen> phaer: i just booted up
[14:19] <Fenix|work> Greetings and salutations!
[14:19] <phaer> iamkitchen: oh...
[14:20] <Fenix|work> Can anyone make any recommendations for open source issue tracking systems that aren't bugzilla?
[14:20] <kunnu531> Halitech: Here is the output
[14:20] <kunnu531> http://paste.ubuntu.com/315980/
[14:20] <phaer> iamkitchen: Do you have desktop effects enabled? If so, try to disable them in System->Preferences->Appearance
[14:20] <fanboi> iamkitchen, if you have emerald installed and are trying to get it to load it's theme you need to create a startup command "emerald --replace"
[14:21] <iamkitchen> i think it's because i uninstalled compiz
[14:21] <iamkitchen> :|
[14:21] <diddy> Does anybody know about 7zip? I am wondering whether I can the GUI application file roller to always use the best algorith in 7zip instead of the fastest. One can configure this from the shell but can you also configure so file roller uses the best one?
[14:21] <phaer> iamkitchen: then either disable desktop fx or reinstall compiz and log out and in again
[14:21] <JerVA> diddy, you can find several zip compression/uncompression files by researching in Ubuntu Software Center
[14:22] <JerVA> Or Add/Remove Applications
[14:22] <Halitech> kunnu531, better start looking at your home folder to see what you can remove, you have 40gig but its everything, no seperate /home
[14:22] <iamkitchen> phaer: desktop effects are disabled
[14:22] <diddy> JerVA, ? 1) am on on 9.04 2) that was not the question. :)
[14:22] <phaer> iamkitchen: then reinstall compiz ;)
[14:22] <iamkitchen> phaer: how, i can't type in terminal :(
[14:23] <endeavormac> anyone have a recommendation for an alternative to the itunes music store?
[14:23] <kunnu531> Halitech: ok let me check and let me paste that output for you
[14:23] <phaer> if you press strg+alt+f1 you get an terminal
[14:23] <phaer> strg+alt+f7 to get to x again
[14:23] <iamkitchen> strg?
[14:23] <grawity> iamkitchen: press Ctrl-Alt-F1 a few times, you'll get a console. Login there, run: DISPLAY=:0 metacity &
[14:23] <duffydack> ctrl, in german
[14:23] <fanboi> iamkitchen, alt F2 then type sudo apt-get install compiz && apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[14:24] <phaer> iamkitchen: ah. strg=ctrl, i'm using a german keyboard, sorry ;)

[14:30] <mezquitale> mcw, I suggest you install ubuntu studio, it's a pain to configure those apps with normal ubuntu
[14:30] <zag> dirctorij
[14:30] <night1ne> Holy crap, I'm tired of having weird dreams
[14:30] <zag> nej sudo
[14:31] <fanboi> lol at ubottu matrix speak... there is no spoon
[14:31] <mezquitale> !root | zag
[14:31] <omkar> is it that we shouldn't be root in the terminal or konsole
[14:31] <omkar> ?
[14:31] <mcw> mezquitale, will that fix it automaticly or will I still have to set the jack settings?
[14:31] <omkar> only use sudo for this purposes?
[14:31] <Pici> omkar: Correct.
[14:31] <omkar> any specific reason except security
[14:31] <night1ne> okay, that's right.
[14:31] <jay_> acer aspire one camera drivers?
[14:31] <omkar> becoz at home is it that necessary
[14:31] <fanboi> omkar, never should you need to log in as root
[14:32] <night1ne> Where do I download pasuspender from?
[14:32] <jay_> acer aspire one camera drivers?
[14:32] <mcw> mezquitale, I already have the ubuntu studio look installed but not the rest
[14:32] <mezquitale> mcw, you might have to adjust a setting for the mic, like youll have to raise the volume on the mic or you might have to configure ardour to use the correct mic
[14:32] <qdb> does autologin make security weaker?
[14:32] <Cale> So, I managed to recompile gnome-applets with support for the mixer applet and that helped a lot, but I'd like to get the old volume control back in Karmic. I wonder which package I should look at.
[14:32] <omkar> not loging
[14:32] <qdb> security of password
[14:32] <omkar> i am talking abt the shell or kde konsole
[14:32] <sipior> omkar: sudo is good about logging commands performed under its auspices; a very handy feature.
[14:32] <mcw> mezquitale, ahh ok
[14:32] <Dougal> mezquitale: thanks, but i have no idea what i'm looking for on that website
[14:32] <omkar> i know it
[14:32] <fanboi> qdb, yes, but only if you have pr0n on your machine
[14:32] <qdb> pr0n=?
[14:33]  * Cale is slowly winning the battle against pulseaudio in karmic :)
[14:33] <fanboi> p0rn
[14:33] <qdb> hm whar relation
[14:33] <omkar> but waht if a home user does a su - n enters a root passwd n becomes a root wahts the risk in that for a Home User?
[14:33] <Pici> = Not appropriate for this channel.
[14:33] <mezquitale> Dougal, are you using a router?
[14:33] <qdb> ah..
[14:33] <cichlasoma> hi. don't you know a way how to easily download a deb package WITH ALL ITS dependencies in a non-debian Linux system?
[14:33] <Xubuntus> Hi people! How do you make Ubuntu into Xubuntu?  (Or the other way around.)
[14:33] <qdb> please answer seriously
[14:33] <mcw> mezquitale, do you know the teminal command to get ubuntu studio
[14:33] <Pici> Xubuntus: Install xubuntu-desktop
[14:33] <jay_> acer aspire one camera drivers??
[14:34] <zag> The program "root" is not installed right now, you can install it by typing: apt-get install root-system-bin
[14:34] <Cale> cichlasoma: I guess you could set up an apt.
[14:34] <M4K4V3l1> Hi all
[14:34] <fanboi> omkar, by selecting exactly which commands you need elevated privilages for,  there is less chance you will dome someing inadvertant that will brick you machine
[14:34] <Xubuntus> Pici: Wow, that easy?
[14:34] <Dougal> mezquitale: yup, according to the housmate administering the router, if i can get an IP packet to the router on port 333 it'll redirect to the relvant port on my machine.
[14:34] <jay_> fml
[14:34] <mezquitale> omkar, there is no such thing as a root password, you need to read about "sudo" then ask more questions
[14:34] <Cale> cichlasoma: But why do you want to do it?
[14:34] <M4K4V3l1> I wanna know why the installation of slapd tool a lot of time
[14:34] <omkar> okay coool
[14:34] <M4K4V3l1> especially in "the Setting up" step
[14:34] <Xubuntus> Pici: And nothing changes when it comes to drivers and installed programs?
[14:34] <Halitech> Xubuntus, take a look at the links at the bottom left http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/index.php
[14:35] <Dougal> mezquitale: as far as i knew, that meant i only needed to find the right IPaddress to get to the router, but when i try on myipaddress.com, using the IP i got from there doesn't help me
[14:35] <Pici> Xubuntus: Nope, nothing at all.
[14:35] <fanboi> omkar,  please what ever you do,  dont chmod 777 /
[14:35] <iamkitchen> fanboi: okay that didn't work, but when I started up I opened terminal without opening anything else and typed compiz and it's working now
[14:35] <Halitech> Xubuntus, the installed apps will change if you remove ubuntu-desktop as per the link I gave you
[14:36] <iamkitchen> fanboi: but now why would it make me do that?
[14:36] <mezquitale> mcw, I think it's sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop,  youll also have to install the real time kernel, you can ask someone in #ubuntustudio on how to do that
[14:36] <mcw> ok
[14:36] <cichlasoma> Cale: I'm in Slax, I can convert deb packages, unpack and run them with no package manager hapilly. But you know what the dependencies-hell is...
[14:36] <jay_> i really need to know if camera drivers exist for aspire one?  and how can i enable vga/s-video, i would like to use a projector for a presentation on linux.
[14:36] <Cale> cichlasoma: Yeah, apt is what you use to solve that problem, but it's probably simpler just to change to a distribution that uses it.
[14:37] <zag> The program "root" is not installed right now, you can install it by typing: apt-get install root-system-bin
[14:37] <zag> ???
[14:37] <fanboi> iamkitchen,  because at some point your x session lost contact with the window decorator,  it happens.
[14:37] <Pici> zag: root is not an application.
[14:37] <Pici> zag: What are you trying to do?
[14:37] <zag> apache
[14:37] <gypsymauro> hi
[14:37] <Speculater> How do I report a 100% occuring error to Ubuntu?
[14:37] <zag> var www
[14:37] <gypsymauro> someone knows a z80 simulator for ubuntu?
[14:37] <Pici> zag: What is your native language?
[14:37] <mezquitale> Dougal, if you want to access your computer through ssh "outside" from your router you use the IP you get from myipaddress.com, if you want to access your machine from within your network you use the ip address that the router gave you
[14:37] <Bertik> can anybody help me register on freenode.net - I would like to see #python - I am not sure how to register my nickname..., please
[14:37] <Guest553> hi there, any people using sahana here
[14:37] <zag> haha
[14:37] <Pici> !register | Bertik
[14:37] <zag> dk
[14:38] <Pici> !dk | zag
[14:38] <Dougal> mezquitale: it works fine internally, (used "IP a s" to get the internal IP address)
[14:38] <Speculater> py
[14:38] <Dougal> but the external fails completely
[14:38] <JediMaster> I've just upgraded a virtual server from 9.04 to 9.10 and on reboot, I get: mountall:/proc: unable to mount: Device or resource busy, and it then asks for the root password and won't boot, any ideas?
[14:38] <Bertik> Pici: thanks
[14:39] <cichlasoma> Cale: I want to stay with my Slax' frugal install which brings huge advantages for me... Concerning installation of apt in Slax, I'm afraid of dependencies-hell... :-)
[14:39] <zag> 	 thanks  :-))) haha
[14:39] <Bertik> ubottu: thanks
[14:39] <Dougal> mezquitale: i'll ask my landlord for help later, i don't have the password for the router control
[14:39] <Speculater> Is 9.10 super buggy, or is it just the few of us in here with loads of server crashing errors?
[14:39] <mezquitale> !bugs | Speculater
[14:39] <iamkitchen> fanboi: okay it requires terminal to stay open :/
[14:39] <Bertik> !register | Bertik
[14:39] <Cale> cichlasoma: Well, this the thing. Usually apt is what takes care of the dependencies-hell for you. ;)
[14:39] <mezquitale> Dougal, I know it works internally, you use dyndns.com so that it works from anywhere on the internet
[14:40] <jay_> thanks everyone for the help!!!  waste of time.
[14:40] <cichlasoma> Cale: You've got it... ;-)
[14:41] <ToddJG> Hi there, does anyone know if there is a way to launch vpnclient in a verbose mode or if it logs - I am looking or more details on why it is failing to connect - thanks
[14:41] <Dougal> mezquitale: what exactly will dyndns do to help? if i can't make it work just by finding the right IP address to plug in to Putty, then that means i'm missing something fundamental about the system. What is it that dyndns will do to help?
[14:42] <Halitech> Dougal, dyndns allows to you just remember a hostname instead of the IP address as the dyndns client will keep the IP address updated to the name
[14:42] <Cale> Does anyone know offhand if I go to the trouble of downloading the source for gnome-media and mess around with it, if I'm likely to find a switch I can flip to remove the new dependency of the sound mixer on pulseaudio or not?
[14:42] <Pici> Cale: apt-get source gnome-media
[14:43] <Cale> Pici: yeah, that's what I'm about to try :)
[14:43] <Halitech> Dougal, but if its not working remotely I'd be looking at a router config issue
[14:43] <mezquitale> Dougal, youre right, first you have to configure the router, you mentioned that you can log in fine when you are logged in using the router?
[14:43] <linuxbman> can someone give me a hand with my java?  javac disappeared somehow during the update and I have a java lab this afternoon
[14:43] <jrib> Cale: well if you fetch sources upstream and isolate the revision that made it depend on pulseaudio, I'd say you have a decent shot...
[14:44] <jrib> !java > linuxbman
[14:44] <Cale> Now that I look at it, it looks like there are options in the configure script for toggling pulseaudio support.
[14:44] <Cale> So that's something.
[14:44] <Cale> Maybe I can get back the nice gstreamer mixer :)
[14:44] <Dougal> malitech: thanks, i'll wait till he gets home then
[14:44] <linuxbman> thanks
[14:44] <Annonymorse> I just received an error when trying to update. REPORT-- W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://archive.ubuntu.com hardy-updates/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_hardy-updates_main_binary-i386_Packages)

[14:44] <linuxfanboi> linuxbman, do you need the developer tools or the runtime environment
[14:44] <linuxbman> developer tools
[14:45] <Speculater> What should I do if I want support for my graphics card, but can't install a Nvidia driver?
[14:45] <mezquitale> Speculater, youre using karmic??
[14:45] <Dougal> mezquitale: I can log in over the private network, using a 192.168 address, if i'm on another computer on the same network. If that's what you mean
[14:45] <Speculater> I am
[14:46] <Cale> Though, I'd really appreciate it (in case any ubuntu developers are listening), if in the future Ubuntu would just work properly without relying so much on pulseaudio, which seems to assume that nobody is going to want to control the volume for their headphones and speakers separately :P
[14:46] <Speculater> Crashed the hell out of my desktop, but did wonders for my laptop... I have mixed feelings.
[14:46] <Dougal> mezquitale: might be a simple as the router not forwrarding things on like my landlord promissed it would, but he was very confident. That's why i was asking, in case i'd missed anything
[14:46] <Cale> (actually, I don't care if you'd just want to ensure that pulseaudio actually worked worth a damn ;)
[14:46] <linuxfanboi> Speculater, is there a reason you cant install the prop drivers?
[14:46] <saracen1> hi, i am trying to use vi on my laptop but when i press the arrow keys its entering various letters, how do i fix that ?
[14:46] <ToddJG> Hi there, does anyone know if there is a way to launch vpnclient in a verbose mode or if it logs - I am looking or more details on why it is failing to connect - thanks
[14:46] <Speculater> linuxfanboi it causes total system failure on next reboot
[14:47] <fcuk112> saracen1: you need to press i or a to get into insert mode?
[14:47] <saracen1> fcuk112: yeah after doing that, the arrows insert letters
[14:47] <saracen1> like A B C D
[14:47] <Speculater> I am now on fresh re install 2, after the initial upgrade from Jaunty..
[14:47] <linuxfanboi> Speculater, what card do you have
[14:47] <mezquitale> Dougal, in order for you to be able to access your machine through ssh from anywhere in the internet the router needs to route the connection to your ssh server, you do that by opening a port in your router and assigning it to the IP of your ssh server, your ssh server should have a static IP so that it never changes
[14:47] <fcuk112> saracen1: if you press ESC do the arrow keys work ok?
[14:47] <saracen1> when trying to move the cursor
[14:48] <saracen1> yeah
[14:48] <Speculater> linuxfanboi Geforce 8800
[14:48] <sniper> no.org
[14:48] <linuxfanboi> did you try manualy installing from nvidia yet?
[14:48] <marcofe> hi
[14:48] <fcuk112> saracen1: strange. no idea.
[14:48] <linuxfanboi> Speculater, did you try manually installing from nvidia yet?
[14:49] <Annonymorse> how do I remove a duplicate in my sources.lst file?
[14:49] <mezquitale> Dougal, it sounds like the port youre using is the default one though, did you configure your client and ssh server to use a non-standard port, if youre using the default port it's qutie possible your ISP is blocking it
[14:49] <Speculater> linuxfanboi I haven't tried that yet, but I know the problem has something to do with the order of loading the driver and the default system setting, in the usplash it tries about 6 resolutions, the ultimately settles on 800 x 600, but flickers and doesn't allow me to type, and in the log it states "Nvidia drivers failed to initialize"
[14:49] <catalin3m> annonymorse, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.lst?
[14:50] <Halitech> Annonymorse, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the extra line
[14:50] <doc_brown> I just installed ubuntu in a virtual box with winxp as the host.  my wireless keyboard is apparently not recognized, but the wireless mouse is... with no keyboard, how will i run commands and such?  lshw, etc to diagnose?
[14:50] <Halitech> !sudo | catalin3m
[14:50] <fcuk112> saracen1: maybe you can ask in #vim
[14:51] <linuxfanboi> Speculater, 32 or 64 bit?
[14:51] <saracen1> ok
[14:51] <paolob_> Hi guys! When a pc on the LAN has a dynamic IP, how can I access it without knowing its IP?
[14:51] <linuxbman> got it, i jsut install netbean at it worked
[14:51] <linuxbman> thanks gang
[14:51] <Annonymorse> catalin3m, I just tried that command, and sources.lst is EMPTY
[14:51] <Dougal> mezquitale: no, the default ssh port on my desktop was 22, We couldn't use that (presumably my landlord uses it, or it's blocked) He asked me to just pick a number, i went with 333.
[14:51] <preetam> hai can anybody tell me how to change the logon window in ubuntu 9.10.
[14:51] <catalin3m> sources.list, sorry
[14:51] <Speculater> linuxfanboi 32 bit
[14:51] <doc_brown> !karmic
[14:52] <Cale> hmm... perhaps I should go about documenting the steps I'm taking. I can't imagine I'm the only one who is really unhappy with the way that Karmic does sound.
[14:52] <linuxfanboi> Speculater, go to http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-9746.html follow instructions and see if that's any better, might me something buggy going on with the aotumatic install
[14:52] <iceroot> how to copy a complette hdd with dd? is it even possible? so that the copied data can be booted like the original-disk?
[14:52] <BluesKaj> mezquitale, the router assigns an IP for each machine on the LAN , but what about the router's IP , does it have to be static to ssh remotely from outside?
[14:53] <SireOrion> tja alla glada har problem me mitt ljudkort blir bara massa bzz jud när jag kör spel men inte vid mp3 eller film...
[14:53] <SireOrion> va kan felet vara

[14:53] <floris> !ubottu
[14:53] <grawity> heitjuh: It asks for your MySQL login.
[14:53] <iceroot> heitjuh: the mysql-user
[14:54] <donavan_> noob question here ... how do i format an sd card ?
[14:54] <grawity> heitjuh: If you just installed it, there should be an account with username "root"
[14:54] <kb0odu> heitjuh: It's the same as your login into mysql.  If you haven't built an account it's your root or mysql user account
[14:54] <mezquitale> Dougal, now we go back to dyndns.com, the IP on your router changes unless you have a static IP.  When you log in from the outside you have to use the router IP, the IP changes all the time so  you have to make sure youre using the correct one
[14:54] <grawity> heitjuh: And with a password that you have set during install.
[14:54] <Speculater> linuxfanboi looks like my card wasn't supported at one time... hmmm I will try this now.
[14:54] <heitjuh> i didnt fill in any
[14:54] <heitjuh> ok
[14:54] <iceroot> heitjuh: then its root without a password
[14:54] <Younder> grawity, been there

[15:14] <om26er> AmokPaule2: use ati
[15:14] <AmokPaule2> ok
[15:14] <WolVenom> how do i unrar .r00 files? o.o
[15:14] <Pici> Xubuntus: lsb_release -a
[15:14] <ActionParsnip> AmokPaule2: linux nvidia support is 2nd to none, ATi drop older cards from their frglx support wheras nvidia still support their old cards
[15:15] <ActionParsnip> WolVenom: sudo apt-get install rar unrar      then run: rar x file.r00

[15:26] <eddvrs> Hi, anyone use an Edirol FA-101- if so how did you get it to work?
[15:26] <jburd> I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 on a new MacBook Pro 5.2 and I'm unable to drag and drop anything using the trackpad.  The community wiki documentation helps setting up the trackpad except drag and drop.  The issue is detailed in this bug report:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/367399   Does anybody in here have a MacBook Pro and have their trackpad working perfectly well?
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> srv: its not a package on its own, seems to be part of other packages
[15:26] <aarghman> !find ping
[15:26] <srv> ActionParsnip: Thank you
[15:27] <aaron11_> eddvrs, What do you mean by work
[15:27] <p1oooop> aaron11_: everything else makes it expensive :D
[15:27] <remoteCTRL> ActionParsnip: oh i see... well the fine thing is that amarok ships with some 19.500 radio streams and i'd really appreciate if i could somehow listen to them:D
[15:27] <remoteCTRL> ActionParsnip: new amarok design sucks anyways imho...

[15:29] <p1oooop> aaron11_: sounds like a very extreme little monster :D
[15:29] <aaron11_> eddvrs, Say your question more specifically
[15:30] <p1oooop> eddvrs: you want GD to make audio out?
[15:30] <p1oooop> 1gd
[15:30] <p1oooop> !gd
[15:30] <p1oooop> fine, I'll say it
[15:30] <iceroot> or is there anything special to do to copy a whole hardisk instead of dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda  to copy dev/sdb to /dev/sda so that it can boot. i am a little bit of afraid
[15:30] <aaron11_> p1oooop, GD means Good Question

[15:33] <bodom> Hi there

[15:34] <PC-Builder> Sorry, ill change now
[15:34] <DefamedPrawn> is there a way I can force ubuntu to check my hd at boot up? Some weird things going on in my filesystem - directories not opening, etc.
[15:34] <Pici> cowguru2000: Do you have libavcodec-dev installed?
[15:34] <cowguru2000> ss: System->Preferences->Display

[15:35] <Pici> DefamedPrawn: sudo touch /forcefsck
[15:35] <matrillox> wheee!
[15:35] <DefamedPrawn> Pici should I do that now?
[15:35] <cowguru2000> Pici: but I believe that the config file is looking for libavcodec in the wrong place
[15:35] <Pici> DefamedPrawn: Doesn't matter when, it will just force a filesystem check on the next boot.
[15:35] <eddvrs> p1oooop: you sure that's really what I need. my FA101's a Firewire audio interface, with multi Microphone in/speaker outs etc...
[15:36] <DefamedPrawn> Pici thanks

[15:36] <zirconiumks> hey guys, anybody got any slides to share that they might have used for the launch party of 9.10 i was looking for some content for the launch party i am attending
[15:36] <p1oooop> eddvrs: I didn't say you needed... GD
[15:36] <mbeierl> Pici, DefamedPrawn: does that need to be done for each mounted filesystem, for /boot (if it's separate) or just for / ?
[15:36] <Pici> cowguru2000: There are usually arguments to ./configure that you can supply to tell it to look in a specific location for libraries, I don't know what they are off the top of my head though. ./configure --help should give you some insight.
[15:36] <tjingboem> where can i chnge the setting for more desktops?.
[15:37] <Pici> mbeierl: I *think* it just needs to be done on / , but I'm not 100% sure on that.

[15:40] <mynyml> if i install and reuse the same /home partition, don't I expose my system to issues of newer versions of the apps not being backwards compatible with their own config files? is this a common problem?

[15:41] <om26er> amikrop: compiz is already installed. won't work because its an other window manger
[15:42] <ahox> mynyml: prinicpially you are, but this never caused trouble for me in 10 years but once or twice
[15:42] <amikrop> om26er: how could he enable it? by installing simple-ccsm and enable advanced effects?
[15:42] <mynyml> ahox: alright, fair enough. thanks
[15:42] <ahox> saracen1: this is probably a desktop effect with lousy 3D performance

[15:43] <om26er> amikrop: it don't work in netbook remix when the window manager is mutter but it will work when its metacity
[15:43] <mbeierl> mynyml: yes you do expose yourself to those issues.  I've had issues with Evolution mail upconverting its db and then the older version not being able to read it, but like ahox said, it's generally not an issue

[15:44] <om26er> amikrop: its complex. the method i know will remove nebook launcher

[15:46] <Cale> Introuble: My drastic solution to audio problems was to remove pulseaudio altogether, and then rebuild gnome-applets (for the volume control) and gnome-media by hand after editing debian/rules and a handful of other files.
[15:46] <ahox> Introuble: Sometimes the alsamixer  (cli) is more helpful than the GUIs
[15:46] <ss_> cowguru2000:Display Preferences
[15:46] <TheCheeze> does anyone happen to know how to make a wallpaper "theme" in Karmic? I don't know how to describe it better or i would google. I mean like how there are some wallpaper options with multiple pictures that it cycles thorugh...
[15:46] <ss_> cowguru2000: any drivers available for linux from intel? if yes from where i can get one?
[15:46] <om26er> amikrop: sudo apt-get purge netbook-launcher && sudo apt-get purge maximus && sudo reboot. then you will have to add some applets to the panels and after adding custome menu to applet go to system-->preferences--> appearances and there in visual effexts tab enable them. and for more effects enable them through ccsm
[15:47] <p1oooop> eddvrs: http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Edirol
[15:47] <ahox> ss_ those are usually all included in the kernel/x11 etc
[15:47] <theneoindian> ifconfig shows two interfaces - wlan0 and wmaster0 . which is my real wlan ???
[15:47] <p1oooop> eddvrs: I don't think it's linux supported
[15:47] <suleman> how do i access the computer having windows in a network if i have his user name n password
[15:47] <amikrop> om26er: can't he get anything with mutter?
[15:47] <om26er> theneoindian: wlan0
[15:47] <om26er> amikrop: no
[15:47] <theneoindian> but lshw says wmaster use ath5k
[15:48] <pkkm> is there any fast command-line regexp executer?
[15:48] <theneoindian> lshw doesn't even have an entry for wlan0
[15:48] <om26er> amikrop: mutter have go some shadow and fading effects i thinkl
[15:48] <ss_> ahox: i know they are.. i wz thinking it would be already there.. but doznt luk it is.. so wht to do? i read on internet there are probplems with 9.10 regarding intel graphics as well
[15:48] <om26er> got
[15:48] <cowguru2000> ssh_: I remember having to do something like this when I first installed Ubuntu, let me see if I can find anything
[15:48] <theneoindian> i'm confused
[15:48] <joaopinto> pkkm, python :) ?
[15:48] <om26er> !confuse | theneoindian
[15:48] <xemnas> How would one go about installing a hardy package in koala?
[15:48] <ahox> ss_ so I assume you talk about graphicdrivers?
[15:49] <suleman> how do i access the computer having windows in a network if i have his user name n password
[15:49] <ss_> ahox: yup
[15:49] <p1oooop> !compiz-fusion
[15:49] <iceroot> !samba | suleman
[15:49] <ahox> then you have to recompile the x.org packages
[15:49] <Halitech> suleman, how exactly do you want to access it?
[15:49] <os2mac> anyone have any luck installing Koala on a Virtual Box install yet?
[15:49] <iceroot> os2mac: sure
[15:49] <mbeierl> suleman: go to Nautilus; type in smb://computer-name in the address bar...?
[15:49] <ahox> not something I would recommend unless you really know what you are doing
[15:49] <pkkm> joaopinto, python has its own regular expressions, I am asking about regular regular expressions :)
[15:49] <cowguru2000> ss_:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedDrivers
[15:49] <Halitech> os2mac, I did
[15:50] <suleman> mbeierl, wat is computer name
[15:50] <theneoindian> om26er, lshw says wmaster0 uses ath5k and it doesn't even 've an entry for wlan0 . so whic is de real lan ?
[15:50] <cowguru2000> ss_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedDrivers
[15:50] <suleman> mbeierl, can it b ipaddress of the ocmputer
[15:50] <os2mac> Halitech: issues? I tried and it failed.
[15:50] <amikrop> om26er: alright. thanks for the info :)
[15:50] <mbeierl> suleman: yes, it can be its ip address or name
[15:50] <ahox> cowguru2000: intel has restricted drivers?
[15:50] <Cale> Introuble: basically, pulseaudio really sucks if you care about configuring your audio equipment in any more detail than changing the master volume, and nobody seems to care. All the gnome audio stuff is moving in the direction of deprecating anything that isn't pulseaudio and Ubuntu is going along with that.
[15:50] <joaopinto> pkkm, uh ? python has a "regular" regular expression module
[15:50] <Halitech> os2mac, other then being limited to an odd resolution no
[15:50] <cowguru2000> ss_: nope. but you should install xserver-xorg-video-intel if you haven't already.
[15:50] <pkkm> joaopinto, how is it called?
[15:51] <e3co> quick question before I head to lunch. How can I install a bootloader (bin) written in asm to the boot sector on my flash drive
[15:51] <om26er> theneoindian: use wired internet and remove wicd and then install network-manager
[15:51] <Halitech> suleman, do you want to control it, access files or what?
[15:51] <e3co> ?
[15:51] <cowguru2000> ss_: it's not restricted but it's not installed by default. ATI / Radeon drivers are installed by default.
[15:51] <joaopinto> pkkm, http://docs.python.org/library/re.html
[15:51] <theneoindian> ok i'm gonna do that
[15:51] <cowguru2000> ahox: no but they're not installed by default
[15:51] <suleman> Halitech, ya do both
[15:51] <om26er> theneoindian: after that if wireless works then again install qicd
[15:51] <om26er> theneoindian: wicd
[15:51] <cowguru2000> ahox: I think the ATI drivers are installed by default
[15:52] <Halitech> suleman, to access the files you need samba, to control it you would need some kind of remote control software on the windows box
[15:52] <ss_> cowguru2000: okz.. so i have to install it manually.. ::  xserver-xorg-video-intel
[15:52] <ahox> cowguru2000: the open ones, yes. Just fighting with those
[15:52] <Idhan> hi.. does open office go-oo 3d transitions ????
[15:52] <e3co> How can I install a bootloader manually to a usb flash drive?
[15:52] <ss_> cowguru2000: i hope its a pakage name
[15:52] <sassyn> radeonfb"floppy0: no floppy controllers found"
[15:52] <sassyn> anyone know how to disbale "floppy0: no floppy controllers found" disable
[15:52] <suleman> Halitech, on the windows box means need to b installed on my frens computer having windows
[15:53] <eddvrs> p1oooop: Thanks for looking... I'll have a read of this..
[15:53] <cowguru2000> ahox: what do you mean fighting with them?
[15:53] <Halitech> suleman, yes, something like tightvnc
[15:53] <p1oooop> eddvrs: no prob.
[15:53] <suleman> Halitech, or on my computer
[15:53] <pkkm> joaopinto, thanks
[15:53] <epinky> e3co: you mean GRUB bootloader?
[15:53] <cowguru2000> ss_: yes it's a package
[15:53] <Halitech> suleman, on your friends windows computer
[15:53] <suleman> Halitech, i cant go n install on his computer
[15:54] <ss_> cowguru2000: well i have checked it.. it is already installed.. checked in Synaptic
[15:54] <cowguru2000> ss_: hmmmmm
[15:54] <suleman> Halitech, I DNT HAVE direct access to his computer
[15:54] <Halitech> suleman, then you won't be controlling it
[15:54] <e3co> epinky:  no a very basic bootloader
[15:54] <suleman> Halitech, JUST HAVE HIS USER NAME N PASSWORD
[15:54] <e3co> epinky:  a custom job
[15:54] <ahox> cowguru2000: I have a HD 3600, and it either crashes hard (fglrx) or its 3d performance is rather poor
[15:54] <suleman> Halitech, BUT my fren on windows cant control my ubuntu based PC
[15:54] <epinky> e3co: very basic like ...
[15:55] <suleman> Halitech, is it the limitaion of linux?
[15:55] <om26er> suleman: no
[15:55] <Halitech> suleman, no need to yell ... if there is no remote control software on his system you can't control it
[15:55] <ss_> cowguru2000: reinstalling it.. it mite work..
[15:55] <ahox> ss_ can you post your xorg.conf?
[15:55] <ahox> ss_ /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[15:55] <Halitech> I fail to see how lack of software on a windows computer is a limitation of Linux
[15:56] <cowguru2000> ahox: ouch
[15:56] <e3co> epinky:  a basic loader that brings a kernel into memory
[15:56] <cowguru2000> ahox: I thought fglrx worked with ATI
[15:56] <suleman> Halitech, its the limitation for me ,coz i use ubuntu.
[15:56] <suleman> Halitech, thus its linux's limitation
[15:56] <ahox> Well, it loads... :/
[15:56] <e3co> epinky:  memory map detection, detecting available video modes,
[15:56] <Catchphrase> have a few general questions about ubuntu. thinking about installing it today. anybody feel like answering a few questions ? =)

[15:57] <freshcocoa> hi all. i installed netbook remix on an old dell latitude c400 (p3 1.2 + intel 830M graphics + 256mb). it is freezing after booting into gnome. any ideas?
[15:58] <coz_> Catchphrase,  what is it you want to know ? :)
[15:58] <Halitech> suleman, no, its your interpretation of an issue with linux which is clearly wrong
[15:58] <Catchphrase> I need a system that supports normal text editing programs (for school). will that be any problem since the school runs windows and all papers are handed in in doc etc?
[15:58] <suleman> Halitech, how do u interpret it then
[15:58] <Kg1fast> catchphrase, we are glad you thinkin Ubuntu first
[15:59] <kic> hello
[15:59] <ss_> cowguru2000: okz i try to apply this solution
[15:59] <ahox> Catchphrase: If its just handin, its not a problem at all. Opening complex excel sheets may be a problem
[15:59] <linuxfanboi> wait just a darn minute, since when is user ignorance a linux limitation?
[15:59] <cowguru2000> ss_: which file was empty?
[16:00] <p1oooop> linuxfanboi: it always was
[16:00] <ss_> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[16:00] <ss_> actually it does not exist
[16:00] <ahox> linuxfanboi: Since I don't know, ever?
[16:00] <Halitech> suleman, I interpret it as a lack of software on a windows based computer that you require for whatever reason
[16:00] <ss_> cowguru2000: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[16:00] <kic> I have installed karmic for 2 weeks now, and have a problem with bluetooth (the last problem I can't solve) : it doesn't work
[16:00] <suleman> Halitech, dats not the interpretation.
[16:00] <ss_> cowguru2000:  actually it does not exist
[16:00] <cowguru2000> ss_: that's a problem...
[16:00] <linuxfanboi> p1oooop, isn't it a user limitation?
[16:01] <ss_> cowguru2000:  yp read about in on ubuntugeek.com
[16:01] <p1oooop> linuxfanboi: which in turn is a linux linitation
[16:01] <kic> sudo hciconfig tell me hci0 is up, so does someone know what can be wrong with my system ?
[16:01] <frew__> hey guys, I screwed up my samba config, is there a way I can tell it to give me back the original config file?
[16:01] <frew__> with dpkg maybe?
[16:01] <ss_> cowguru2000:  ppl complaining about missing file.. but couldn't find a relevant thread on ubuntuforums.org
[16:01] <p1oooop> linuxfanboi: a computer is only as good as a user is
[16:01] <suleman> Halitech, ok well i m not searchig for that question
[16:01] <suleman> let it be
[16:01] <ahox> suleman
[16:01] <cowguru2000> ss_: uh oh

[16:01] <theneoindian> how to start networkmanager

[16:02] <cowguru2000> ss_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=655608
[16:02] <linuxfanboi> p1oooop, perhaps people should learn what they are using before they claim it is a software limitation rather than a personal one
[16:02] <ahox> sry suleman, wrong field, I just wanted to follow the conversation
[16:02] <p1oooop> linuxfanboi: that's exactly what I'm saying :D

[16:03] <arand> frew__: sudo dpkg-reconfigure packagename, might do it.

[16:03] <frew__> lemme try again
[16:04] <Finnish> How can I upload multiple files  to ubuntu one, at once?
[16:04] <epinky> Finnish: at once?

[16:05] <freshcocoa> hi all. i installed netbook remix on an old dell latitude c400 (p3 1.2 + intel 830M graphics + 256mb). it is locking up after booting into gnome. any ideas?

[16:06] <laurentum> hello channel.  I installed an HP P1006 Laser printer on my Ubuntu.  It prints my documents in very very small (tiny) copies.  How do i solve this problem?
[16:06] <Pici> Finnish: #ubuntuone may be a better channel to ask in
[16:06] <ss_> cowguru2000:  well i try to find something.. hopefully there would b a workaround 4 this.. :-/
[16:06] <cowguru2000> ss_: alright, good luck :)
[16:06] <BA_WA> .
[16:07] <p1oooop> freshcocoa: too little memoy?
[16:07] <arand> frew__: apt-cache search samba will list all samba-related packages, if that's of any help.
[16:07] <frew__> thanks, it is
[16:07] <equex_> hi, does it exist a DVD image of 8.04.3 LTS ?

[16:07] <X-Seti> upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10 is worrying, I have bugs all over the place..

[16:08] <frew__> arand: thanks!  dpkg-reconfigure samba-common did the truck
[16:08] <frew__> trick*

[16:08] <xemnas> How would one go about installing a hardy package in koala?
[16:08] <laurentum> its annoying to have to read stuff on paper with a microscope
[16:08] <BA_WA> 
[16:08] <arand> frew__: :)
[16:09] <Snausages> X-Seti: though I think I didn't get the feature I upgraded for, and seem to have lost audio in the deal
[16:09] <erUSUL> xemnas: why would you wat to do that?
[16:09] <xemnas> erusul: So I can use CNR under Koala.
[16:09] <X-Seti> snausages, unlucky mate
[16:10] <xemnas> erusul: I'm thinking it might be a better idea to install hardy beside koala
[16:10] <arand> xemnas: I'd look it up on packages.ubuntu.com and install it separately.
[16:10] <Tronic> Which is correct, ~/.local/share/games/MyGame or ~/.local/share/MyGame?
[16:10] <X-Seti> seems i might have to install from scratch, given all the errors
[16:10] <Snausages> X-Seti: eh, in the history of linux upgrades I'd still have to call this a success :)

I see that the version number for 5.10.0 is actually "5.10.0=24ubuntu4", but I don't know where that magic string comes from or how to find out the corresponding version string for 5.8.1.

I need to enter the GRUB menu on start, but despite of pressing esc all the time, i cant get in the menu. i tried to configure it, but there is no /boot/grub/menu.lst do i have to write it myself to set higher timeout so i can get into grub menu? ideas appreciated... maybe you, jrib ? or hovzio ?

[16:15] <laurentum> i mean, it prints the sheets to 1/8 their normal size
[16:15] <yrlnry> alx909:  try looking at the manual for commands named "grub-xxx".
[16:15] <ravigehlot> linuxfanboi: I have been doing the updates daily in an attempt to solve that problem. Is that a known bug?
[16:15] <mezquitale> alx909, the setting you are looking for is now in "/etc/default/grub"
[16:16] <hugo> and I am looking for some help with my login window and splash screen
[16:16] <_HaCKeR_> heeeeeeeeeeeey
[16:16] <hovzio> When you run lets say firefox, you are running it with the "users" permisions. That means firefox can do anything within the filesystem that the user can. Using apparmor you can limit firefox to only access the file/directories that it absololutly needs to run.
[16:16] <yrlnry> alx909:  It's called update-grub.
[16:16] <linuxfanboi> ravigehlot, not that I am aware,  but it sounded like a logical first step :P
[16:16] <_HaCKeR_> fuck you
[16:16] <yrlnry> alx909:  update-grub - program to generate GRUB's menu.lst file
[16:16] <arand> alx909: there is no menu.lst with grub2, there is a grub.cfg, whish is not supposed to be manually edited.

[16:17] <mezquitale> hugo, try configuring your video card first
[16:17] <laurentum> ahox: the scale parameters are 100% of natural size
[16:18] <ahox> laurentum: Do you use the right drivers?
[16:18] <hugo> How do you mean?

[16:18] <hugo> Get the right drivers?
[16:18] <ahox> linuxfanboi: why not reinstall?
[16:18] <alx909> @ arand yrlnry mezquitale thanks guys.. one question though i need to enter menu because i want to downgrade to jaunty via netboot.. will jaunty even work with grub2?
[16:19] <linuxfanboi> ravigehlot, or Try sudo apt-get reinstall thunderbird
[16:19] <ravigehlot> linuxfanboi: We have done that with both Eclipse and Thunderbird. Notoriously, it did not happen before the upgrade. Also some applications were automatically deleted and are no longer on our computers.
[16:19] <SkyNet> linuxfanboi reinstall thunderbird
[16:19] <SkyNet> reinstall thunderbird

[16:21] <hugo> skynet we have the same problem
[16:21] <ibuclaw> madrazr, iirc, you need to change the partition Volume Name

[16:21] <sobersabre> hi guys.

[16:21] <madrazr> ibuclaw: ext4
[16:22] <mezquitale> !ask| sobersabre

[16:22] <MenZa> ror: The laser might be broked.
[16:22] <arand> alx909: to get it to always show the menu edit the /etc/default/grub file and comment out the GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 entry, then run sudo update-grub to propagate the changes to grub.cfg
[16:22] <laurentum> just whenever it feels like it, depending on the computer mood i guess. :P
[16:22] <mordof> jrib: been reading the mount man page for about 40 minutes trying to get this sorted out, lol..

[16:22] <Mark21> Hello, I did install ubuntu desktop 9.10 and now I want to have a "normall" resolution that is at least 1024*768 and not limited to 640*480, I have a Nvidia network adapter and in the past I did have windows XP on that system with 1600*1200 as resolution. How can I increase this resolution? The options I did find at system -> preferences -> display don't work and the options at system -> administration -> nvidia x server settings didn't solve this issue 
[16:23] <jrib> mordof: pastebin what you are doing and the result
[16:23] <mezquitale> ror, a DVD drive is a physical device and thus has a lifespan so yes, the drive it is a possibility that the drive is damaged
[16:23] <SkyNet> reamezquitale dvd's, yeah
[16:23] <SkyNet> jrib : so what do you want to take away from 777
[16:23] <mordof> jrib: ok, hold on
[16:23] <jrib> SkyNet: I don't want to take anything away :)
[16:23] <SkyNet> i don't think
[16:23] <freshcocoa> p1oooop: it has 256mb. what are the requirements?
[16:23] <ror> it still reads CDs fine, but can't read DVDs
[16:23] <IdleOne> SkyNet: stop tolling

[16:24] <Halitech> ror, I've had combo drives fail to burn dvd but would read them and still burn cds, lasers do eventually die but you could try cleaning it

[16:25] <epinky> ror: there is a  CD len and another DVD len
[16:25] <ror> but the previous disk in the set was fine
[16:25] <madrazr> ibuclaw: Ok let me try
[16:25] <sobersabre> hi guys. I booted into my system with alternate CD's "rescue" mode entry.
[16:25] <pateusz> i'm skynet creator
[16:25] <ror> ok thanks I'll try to give it a clean
[16:25] <jrib> pateusz: please, no talking bots in #ubuntu
[16:25] <p1oooop> !antidisestablishmentarianism
[16:25] <ibuclaw> madrazr, you'll have to umount the LVMs
[16:25] <sobersabre> I edited fstab to reflect the correct devices/partitions, but grub is still not configured properly.
[16:25] <madrazr> ibuclaw: Oh Ok
[16:25] <ror> otherwise RIP plextor px740a, you did a fine job for 6 long years :o
[16:25] <mezquitale> ror, there's your answer, read Halitech and epinky 's post
[16:25] <pateusz> skynet is not a bot
[16:25] <madrazr> ibuclaw: its part of that tutorial?
[16:26] <sobersabre> is there a way to rebuild grub configuration without editing many files ?
[16:26] <pateusz> skynet is AI
[16:26] <jrib> pateusz: are you a bot too?
[16:26] <ibuclaw> madrazr, LVMs are slightly different
[16:26] <mordof> jrib: http://pastebin.com/m42c83e8b <-- fstab entry.  http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/4571/screenshotntfspropertie.png <-- screenshot to permissions window of drive
[16:26] <madrazr> ibuclaw: Oh!
[16:26] <IdleOne> pateusz: still not permitted in this channel and your AI needs work
[16:26] <pateusz> i'm nmot a bot
[16:26] <hugo> I'll try again laiter. Cheers,
[16:26] <ror> inevitable next question, is it safe to hot-unplug IDE dvd drives? :)
[16:26] <ibuclaw> madrazr, ie, you will be using /dev/lvm-name/lvm-partition-name instead
[16:26] <mezquitale> sobersabre, can you boot up to your machine and what is it youre trying to configure in grub? do you have grub2?
[16:26] <Halitech> ror, definately not
[16:27] <jrib> mordof: ls -ld /mnt/ntfs
[16:27] <madrazr> ibuclaw: Oh Ok. Thats the only change right?
[16:27] <ror> ok thanks :)
[16:27] <jrib> pateusz: then please stay on-topic here: ubuntu support.  Thanks!
[16:27] <t-s-b> I cant get my mceusb remote to work with lirc.
[16:27] <ibuclaw> madrazr, pretty much, and you'll use e2label to change the label
[16:27] <ror> just whacked my head on the corner of my desk after bending down to get the disk out too, *ouch* dammit not a good day! dead DVD drive, flu and now a very sore head
[16:27] <madrazr> ibuclaw: Ok
[16:28] <mordof> jrib: drwx------ 1 mordof mordof 20480 2009-09-08 09:36 /mnt/ntfs
[16:28] <ibuclaw> madrazr, do you know the name of your lvm ? and the partitions within it?
[16:28] <sobersabre> mezquitale: I do have grub2 indeed.
[16:28] <ibuclaw> just out of curiousity
[16:28] <madrazr> ibuclaw: yes
[16:28] <jrib> mordof: is the disk currently mounted?
[16:28] <madrazr> ibuclaw: I can get that from my fstab file
[16:28] <ibuclaw> madrazr, okies
[16:28] <sobersabre> I repartitioned my disk, and restored the partitions' data, but now I need to reconfigure grub, and it appears I'm not familiar with grub2 :-/
[16:28] <mordof> jrib: it's auto-mounted, so yes
[16:29] <Dravekx> is there a simple explaination of users and groups somewhere?
[16:29] <sobersabre> BTW, maybe initrd needs to be recreated....
[16:29] <Leonard_> Has the booting with USB keyboard issue been fixed yet?
[16:29] <sobersabre> I think the old initrd is what is failing...
[16:29] <jrib> mordof: unmount it, what does ls -ld /media/ntfs return?  Then remount it, what does ls -ld /media/ntfs return?
[16:29] <sobersabre> mezquitale: are you ... listening ?
[16:29] <Leonard_> I have no PS2 keyboard and I want to install from boot
[16:29] <ibuclaw> madrazr, in short: ie-  sudo e2label /dev/lvm/mymusic "My Music"
[16:29] <razertek> how do i get my desktop to display on my the rightside monitor? and not have the right side be the extended space?
[16:29] <mordof> jrib: i'm not sure how to unmount that partition specifically short of searching through the man pages, any help?
[16:29] <jrib> mordof: mount it using « mount /mnt/ntfs »  (and replace "media" with "mnt" in my previous commands)
[16:30] <t-s-b> Configuring mceusb remote control, found http://plone.lucidsolutions.co.nz/linux/mythtv/microsoft-remote-control-and-receiver-1.0a-for-media-center-pc-with-windows-model-1040 but don know what to do with it
[16:30] <jrib> mordof: « umount /mnt/ntfs »
[16:30] <om26er> yes
[16:30] <madrazr> ibuclaw: Ok, i.e after unmounting?
[16:30] <mordof> jrib: k, ty
[16:30] <ibuclaw> madrazr, yes
[16:30] <ibuclaw> madrazr, and a reboot may be needed for it to be carried over into the Gnome/KDE desktop
[16:30] <madrazr> ibuclaw: Oh Ok

[16:31] <h4f> where can I get libqt-mt.so from ?
[16:31] <mordof> jrib: mounted:  drwxrwx--- 1 mordof mordof 20480 2009-09-08 09:36 /mnt/ntfs ........  odd...?
[16:31] <Vinceman> how do you enable ë, é creations with your keyboard?
[16:31] <phako> hi
[16:31] <ibuclaw> h4f, http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=libqt-mt.so&mode=exactfilename&suite=karmic&arch=any
[16:32] <mordof> jrib: the right click - properties is still showing the lack of permissions on files though
[16:32] <ibuclaw> h4f, I believe you'd be wanting libqt3-mt-dev
[16:32]  * mordof is rather confused..
[16:32] <epinky> Dravekx: you mean management of users/groups or permissions?
[16:32] <alx909> hey arand, shift worked to enter grub menu, but on entering "kernel /linux" he says "unknown command".. you dont have a clue how i can tell grub to boot from a certain kernel and initrd?
[16:32] <h4f> ibuclaw: I have installed 32 bit application. starting it from command line say. "rror while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[16:33] <madrazr> ibuclaw: let me reboot and try
[16:33] <madrazr> thanks for all the help
[16:33] <ibuclaw> no probs
[16:33] <ibuclaw> mordof, the permissions of NTFS filesystems are defined at mount-time
[16:33] <mordof> jrib: ah.. that'd be because i'm right clicking on a folder.  files themselves show read/write capabilities for me and group
[16:33] <mordof> ibuclaw: i'm aware
[16:33] <ibuclaw> mordof, once mounted, you cannot change them
[16:33] <jlabomb> I am looking for help on the slow internet bug in 9.10
[16:33] <ibuclaw> mordof, so the problem is...
[16:33] <mordof> ibuclaw: ty for pointing that out. i wasn't trying to do that though
[16:34] <jrib> mordof: just click "reload" in nautilus
[16:35] <madrazr> ibuclaw: awesomeness!
[16:35] <mordof> jrib: the properties thing is simply because when i click on a folder to check it - it doesn't show file permissions.. i hadn't thought of that before.    ty for setting me straight on the umask thing. wasn't sure what exactly it was doing - permissions is something i'm still not entirely used to
[16:35] <madrazr> reboot is not required
[16:35] <alx909> thx arand, found it myself, command comparison grub1/2 http://grub.enbug.org/CommandList
[16:36] <alx909> i'll try again
[16:36] <ibuclaw> madrazr, ah, that is good =)
[16:36] <mordof> jrib: works fine now :D
[16:36] <jlabomb> has anyone had any luck getting around the slow internet problem in 9.10?
[16:36] <Dravekx> so, where is an easy explanation of users and groups in ubuntu server???
[16:36] <mordof> jrib: going to restart to make sure the direct mount -a on bootup sets it all right now :)
[16:36] <jrib> Dravekx: what exactly aren't you sure about?
[16:37] <Dravekx> jrib, I dont understand how to list groups and users, see what is standard, see what is on my server, or set them up properly.
[16:38] <Halitech> Dravekx, users are people and groups are a way of combining people into areas that give the same abilities
[16:38] <Dr_Willis> !groups
[16:38] <ibuclaw> Dravekx, /etc/passwd and /etc/group
[16:38] <Dr_Willis> groups is one of thoise thigs i rarely use.
[16:38] <Dravekx> Halitech, I know what they are, I'm not sure how to organize/list/create them.
[16:39] <jrib> Dr_Willis: « getent passwd » will list users.  « getent group » will list groups.  For user and group creation/administration see « man adduser »
[16:39] <jrib> argh...
[16:39] <profoX`> I created an ad-hoc network using nm-applet, but how can I disable that ad-hoc network now?
[16:39] <jrib> Dravekx: « getent passwd » will list users.  « getent group » will list groups.  For user and group creation/administration see « man adduser »
[16:39] <matthewf> did the format of the grub config file changed? it seems to use menuentry { } rather than title now

[16:40] <petsounds> good evening.. i have problem during the boot process.. after the grub options ubuntu won't start the usplash but only have _ beeping. how can i fix this? thanks
[16:40] <ibuclaw> matthewf, don't look in /boot to alter grub.cfg
[16:40] <TheCaromGuy> how many beeps do you hear?
[16:40] <Guest50290> if i upgrade something like 8.10 to the current version of ubuntu and have a dual boot on two seperate partitions will this maintain the current partitions and my xp partition etc.??
[16:41] <jlabomb> is there a fix for the slow inernet problem in ubuntu? I belive it is Bug #433972
[16:41] <ibuclaw> matthewf, if you need to change anything, /etc/defaults/grub and /etc/grub.d  - then run: sudo update-grub
[16:41] <jrib> Guest50290: it should
[16:41] <Dravekx> ahhhhh thanks guys :)
[16:41] <ibuclaw> jlabomb, slow internet? what - through firefox?
[16:41] <Guest50290> so it wont over write anything - is anyone sure about this here?
[16:41] <TheCaromGuy> petsounds, if you hear 3 beeps, there is something wrong with your RAM
[16:41] <TheCaromGuy> check it
[16:41] <jlabomb> through everything, chromium, synaptic ect
[16:42] <matthewf> ibuclaw: yeah. I figured that out. just not sure of the format of stuff to put in /etc/grub.d/40_config to be able to boot into my centos install
[16:42] <jlabomb> takes it awhile to connect to a site, once it connects its fast
[16:42] <ibuclaw> matthewf, it is a devious bash script
[16:42] <petsounds> TheCaromGuy : im sorry but its not beeping sound just _ beeping.
[16:42] <Halitech> petsounds, so you make it through POST and get to grub and then you get the beeps?
[16:43] <ibuclaw> petsounds, you mean that _ is blinking
[16:43] <ibuclaw> black screen
[16:43] <petsounds> ibuclaw : yes blinking. sorry for my bad english

[16:56] <ironsight> savid, just read the mc man page once you get it
[16:57] <bumbblebee> can not share file with xmpp users, on gtalk from pidgin?
[16:57] <bumbblebee> any help
[16:57] <Lawrence> I am booting from a USB, installing Ubuntu Server and when it mounts the CD Drive it says the Cd rom isn't ubuntu and it can't be used... but i am trying to install from the usb so i dont understand.. Anyone?
[16:57] <Dr_Willis> Lawrence:  how did you make the bootable flash drive?
[16:58] <sobersabre> guys, I've been through grub2 page on wiki.ubuntu.com, and I think I need to rebuild my initrd
[16:58] <Vinceman> how do you enable ë, é creations with your keyboard?
[16:58] <jlabomb> My main problem is the slow internet but in 9.10, it makes it miswable to surf webpages or download anything. I am using firefox and chromium it also affects synaptic. It takes a while to resolve the host. Once it does that it is fast.
[16:58] <Halitech> rashed2020, try it in the home folder and see if it works there
[16:58] <Lawrence> Dr_Willis: I used unetbootin-windows-377...
[16:58] <ibuclaw> Lawrence, for Server, you'll have to do a Netboot installation
[16:58] <sobersabre> the problem is that grub loads the correct kernel, and the correct initrd, but initrd is trying to mount the old (wrong) partition as rootfs.
[16:58] <sobersabre> what shall I do ?
[16:58] <SalvoMaltese> hi all
[16:59] <ibuclaw> sobersabre, what is the problem?
[16:59] <SalvoMaltese> pls, anywan knows how to change bookmarks icons in nautilus?
[16:59] <eddym> om26er: think i need 32 bit version
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> sobersabre:  sounds like the grub config is wrong.
[16:59] <sobersabre> BRB in 1/2 hour...
[16:59] <sobersabre> sorry.
[16:59] <bumbblebee> can not share file with xmpp users, on gtalk from pidgin? any help
[16:59] <ibuclaw> sobersabre, that is fine
[16:59] <nvme> does ubuntu run in virtual pc (win7 x64) ?
[16:59] <ibuclaw> SalvoMaltese, the icon is defined in the icon theme you are using
[16:59] <om26er> eddym: i386 is 32bit
[16:59] <jlabomb> no help?
[16:59] <om26er> nvme: yes'
[17:00] <om26er> jlabomb: state you problem
[17:00] <ironsight> Has anyone been able to get openal to work in karmic yet?
[17:00] <Lawrence> Dr-Willis: should I not make it using that program? I formatted FAT-32 and used the iso and burned to the usb drive
[17:00] <nvme> and would it bet better to use virtual pc over virtualbox (considering performance / features available)
[17:00] <jlabomb> I belive it is Bug #433972 , the internet takes awhile to connect to each site no matter what program you use
[17:01] <Lawrence> It says the cd-rom mount succeeded but the available cd is not an ubuntu cd... however all the files are on the usb.
[17:01] <simplexio> nvme: bo idea, but vbox works very good eith 9.10 and 768Mb ram, much better that 9.04 on same amount memory
[17:01] <jlabomb> om26er: forgot to put your name - I belive it is Bug #433972 , the internet takes awhile to connect to each site no matter what program you use
[17:01] <Dr_Willis> Lawrence:  some one just said using unetbootin may not work properly with the server iso.
[17:01] <om26er> jlabomb: tried using any other browser?
[17:02] <SalvoMaltese> but if I add a new bookmark, how can I change its icon?
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> Lawrence:  i never use the server. i always use the desktop versioons - and install what services i need
[17:02] <SalvoMaltese> like "music" bookmark that has folder/note icon
[17:02] <jlabomb> om26er I use chromium and firefox, it also happens in evolution and synaptic
[17:02] <Dravekx_> can I delete all the groups in a standard setup of ubuntu and make my own?
[17:02] <Dravekx_> or are they important?
[17:02] <docmax> hello, i have a wireless-n wlan-router and a wireless-n laptop ... but netspeed is crap... any ideas?
[17:02] <Lawrence> DrWillis: But I want to set up a server to host my runescape (a game) private server... you think the desktop version would be fine?
[17:03] <mahngiel> g'day all
[17:03] <ibuclaw> SalvoMaltese, ooh ... that is hard coded into libglib2
[17:03] <simplexio> nvme: far as i know vbox has all features that virtual pc offer (attlest that impression vpc home gives )
[17:03] <mick_laptop> would anyone recommend to not upgrade to 9.10?
[17:03] <ibuclaw> SalvoMaltese, you can't change that.
[17:03] <mick_laptop> i heard of people having issues
[17:03] <jlabomb> om26er: sorry not use to talking like this - I use chromium and firefox, it also happens in evolution and synaptic
[17:03] <mahngiel> mick_laptop: if you're worried about all the bugs being ironed out before you dive in, you can wait
[17:03] <Dravekx_> I like 9.10
[17:03] <mahngiel> mick_laptop: or if you like to explore, i definately recommend it
[17:04] <SalvoMaltese> uff... I hate hardcoded stuff :
[17:04] <SalvoMaltese> :)
[17:04] <SalvoMaltese> thx, anyway
[17:04] <mahngiel> mick_laptop: just beware of the bugs that have been recorded; such as the suspend feature atm
[17:04] <mick_laptop> not so worried. i just don't want X to not work
[17:04] <rikta> Do you know if there is any problem installing ubuntu on an ACER 5536G ?
[17:04] <OlaNordmann> I had some bugs with 9.10, but nothing serious
[17:04] <Dravekx_> my 9.10 server works fine
[17:04] <ibuclaw> mick_laptop, http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/benefits/lifecycle
[17:04] <mick_laptop> rikta: there is a HCL in the wiki under netbooks
[17:04] <mahngiel> rikta: it's kind of hard to to pinpoint exact boards and computers
[17:05] <docmax> hello, i have a wireless-n wlan-router and a wireless-n laptop ... but netspeed is crap... any ideas?
[17:05] <mick_laptop> ibuclaw: i know
[17:05] <mahngiel> docmax: not yet mate
[17:05] <om26er> jlabomb: updgraded from jaunty or it was aclean install
[17:05] <Dravekx_> why are there so many groups????
[17:05] <ibuclaw> mick_laptop, 9.04 will be supported officially until October 2010, so there is no rush to upgrade
[17:05] <Dravekx_> cdrom group, floppy group?? are you serious?
[17:05] <docmax> does linux support wireless-n?
[17:05] <mahngiel> docmax: i have a 10x better connection under windows, but i enjoy this much better
[17:05] <docmax> i have intel agn chipset
[17:06] <Guest54374> hello everybody
[17:06] <jlabomb> om26re: I did a clean install to get the ext4 . It has hapened on 2 systems, one wireless one wired.
[17:06] <docmax> everyone has a better net connection in windows... why is that?
[17:06] <mahngiel> hey guest
[17:06] <Speculater> I need help installing Nvidia drivers through the terminal, what do I need to install to fix the "No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel" error?
[17:07] <docmax> wlan support is horrible
[17:07] <mahngiel> docmax: i think it's because windows has so much proprietariness because unix systems aren't being readily identified and built by commercial enterprises
[17:07] <ibuclaw> Speculater, that is not an error
[17:07] <OlaNordmann> Jabal al Lawz
[17:07] <Dravekx_> does ubuntu REALLY need so many groups and users???
[17:07] <ibuclaw> mick_laptop, all my workstations are on karmic (HP DV 2700, Samsung N110, a custom desktop with a AMiTrends Mobo). Then again, I am probably the sort of person who knows what he is doing (been around since Debian Woody's release).
[17:07] <docmax> mahngiel, ubuntu has to work on it! because windows will still stay on top because of this
[17:07] <Speculater> Well I realize that, but it's getting in my way... and I have no clue how to fix that
[17:08] <TheInfinity> Dravekx_: yes.
[17:08] <Dravekx_> There's like 100 groups and 50 users preinstalled from the get go.
[17:08] <Dravekx_> ?
[17:08] <erUSUL> Dravekx_: if you want fine grained control and security yes ;)
[17:08] <ibuclaw> Speculater, select "OK" and then let the installer compile the drivers
[17:08] <mahngiel> docmax: it's not only ubuntu, it's all unix systems. but believe it or not, unix systems have about 90% use in enterprises, however there's more money in windows and mac
[17:08] <Dravekx_> TheInfinity, does everything have a group and user?
[17:08] <Speculater> ERROR: You do not appear to have libc header files installed on your system. Please install your distribution's libc development package.
[17:09] <mahngiel> docmax: we are gaining ground though
[17:09] <Lawrence> Is there a way to remotely connect to Ubuntu from a Windows PC, so I can host my server on the Ubuntu?
[17:09] <ibuclaw> Speculater, oh, install build-essential ;)
[17:09] <jlabomb> om26er: I don't know if it has something to do with IPv6, it is not one in my ethernet settings
[17:09] <docmax> how can i check if wireless-n is enabled?
[17:09] <gasull> Hi.  I just did a fresh install of Karmic and I don't have sound.  I just found that there is no user group "sound".  Can it be the problem?  Thanks.
[17:09] <Speculater> ahh crap I forgot to do that with the fresh install
[17:09] <mick_laptop> ibuclaw: i an not exactly clueless myself... used debian since slink
[17:09] <docmax> perhaps there is an /etc switch
[17:09] <TheInfinity> Dravekx_: not everything, but every subsystem
[17:09] <Speculater> thanks :O
[17:09] <Guest54374> does anyone knows how compile a kernel?
[17:09] <mick_laptop> i'm smart enough to ask ;)
[17:09] <Take0n> Could someone help me with this http://paste.scripting.gr/view.php?id=1108
[17:09] <steffan> !kernel | Guest54374
[17:10] <Dreamglider> anyone know where/if i can find a list of common CHS values for Kingston thumbdrives/flashdisks ?
[17:10] <docmax> ENABLE_WIRELESS_N=1 ?
[17:10] <gvd> hello, has anyone ever used firefly media server or understands what I am doing wrong?   I am trying to set up a media share and I can set the directory up just fine when the media is on my computer.  When I ask it to go look on a external hard drive (i.e. /media/disk/music), I get in the log "error scanning...bad path"
[17:10] <om26er> jlabomb: sorry i dont think i know the solution
[17:10] <jlabomb> om26er: thanks anyway
[17:10] <ibuclaw> mick_laptop, I am crazy enough to jump blind ;)
[17:11] <Guest54374> thanks ubottu
[17:11] <ibuclaw> Speculater, sudo apt-get install build-essential pkg-config linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[17:11] <gvd> firefly
[17:11] <Lawrence> Is there a way to remotely connect to Ubuntu from a Windows PC, so I can host my server on the Ubuntu?
[17:12] <Speculater> thanks
[17:12] <gasull> Do you guys using Karmic have a user group called "sound"?  I'm missing it.
[17:12] <ibuclaw> Lawrence, ssh
[17:12] <Lawrence> ?
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> Lawrence:  ssh is the way to remote connect.
[17:12] <mahngiel> !ssh
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> !putty
[17:12] <marcofe> !ssh
[17:12] <marcofe> uhhh
[17:12] <mick_laptop> Lawrence: aptitude install openssh-server then use PuTTy yo connect
[17:12] <marcofe> amazing function
[17:12] <marcofe> !telnet
[17:12] <Speculater> ibuclaw with or without ( )'s?
[17:13] <l3ns> hi everyone
[17:13] <mahngiel> !sound
[17:13] <Lawrence> Thanks mick and willis and ubot ha.
[17:13] <eddym> om26er, new version having issue with my video driver nvida
[17:13] <ibuclaw> Speculater, with
[17:13] <Guest54374> the ubuntu's sound doesn't work! what i should do?
[17:13] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:13] <mahngiel> !sound | gasull
[17:13] <ibuclaw> Speculater, so it is linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[17:13] <om26er> eddym: then remove it?
[17:13] <l3ns> just want to ask which is a better way of downloading, on a terminal or using the add/remove applications?
[17:13] <ibuclaw> Speculater, that or linux-headers-`uname -r`
[17:14] <netdur> my home became read only
[17:14] <ibuclaw> Speculater, but not people know what `backticks` are ;)
[17:14] <freakshow2> whta does teh bang "!" connotate?
[17:14] <trism> l3ns: one isn't really better than the other, we usually give terminal commands here because it is easier than telling people to open up a gui and search for something
[17:14] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:14] <papul> will ubuntu support ati HD4890???
[17:14] <ibuclaw> freakshow2, something to do with something you have already typed + entered
[17:14] <freakshow2> thnx
[17:14] <mahngiel> papul: why wouldn't it?
[17:14] <ibuclaw> freakshow2, !! = the previous command
[17:15] <ibuclaw> freakshow2, ie: vi /etc/default/grub
[17:15] <ibuclaw> freakshow2, sudo !!
[17:15] <papul> default drivers?
[17:15] <kartook> hey can i use this like to genarate  repo list   http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[17:15] <Guest54374> if you can do it... ;)
[17:16] <mahngiel> papul: should be able to find those VGA drivers
[17:16] <netdur> I just tried to create a folder in my home and found that it became read only, help
[17:16] <mahngiel> netdur: right-click > permissions?
[17:16] <Silent_Echo> so i want to try "foresight linux" is there a way to make a usb thing for that? like for ubuntu and xubuntu?
[17:16] <l3ns> trism, i heard that apt-get is better because it is the one being supported so when updates come, the version that was downloaded using the terminal are being updated
[17:17] <Dreamglider> did my line about CHS make it to the channel ?
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> Silent_Echo:  try unetbootin and the foresite channe
[17:17] <almoxarife> can I change the boot sector grub2 should start from?
[17:17] <almoxarife> and where?
[17:17] <freakshow2> so, re: < mahngiel> !sound. Whta does !sound do?
[17:17] <trism> l3ns: they both have the same backend, so you will get updates either way
[17:17] <Guest54374> net dur tray with this sudo chown your user /home
[17:17] <Silent_Echo> Dr_Willis unet?
[17:17] <erUSUL> !bot | freakshow2
[17:17] <mahngiel> !sound | freakshow2
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> Silent_Echo:  try unetbootin and the foresite channe
[17:18] <vsMS> almoxarife: have a look at grub-install
[17:18] <l3ns> trism, ah cool. it's because the xchat that i downloaded using the terminal is different with the one from add/remove
[17:18] <Take0n> so anyone?
[17:18] <mahngiel> Take0n: i missed your question
[17:18] <Take0n> Could someone help me with this http://paste.scripting.gr/view.php?id=1108
[17:18] <Globalnet> Hello
[17:18] <Silent_Echo> Dr_Willis, my thing is i wanted to creat the usb thing with the "USB startup disk creator" on ubuntu
[17:18] <Dreamglider> anyone know where/if i can find a list of common CHS values for Kingston thumbdrives/flashdisks ? (Sorry if it's a repeate, FF crashed)
[17:18] <mahngiel> Take0n: you trying to use pastebin?
[17:19] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:19] <Globalnet> Can I install Ubuntu 9.10 after win7 ?
[17:19] <trism> l3ns: there are two xchats in the repo, so you might have installed them both and that's why they are different
[17:19] <mahngiel> Glabalnet: that is recommended so that win7 doesn't wipe out your ubuntu instal
[17:19] <Globalnet> Without erasing of Win7
[17:19] <JohnCDI> just got a laptop for free the cd drive is crapped out on it any easy method for an install?
[17:19] <Take0n> mahngiel, shall I paste it in pastebin instead?
[17:19] <jeffmr_> anyone want to help me test remote desktop client?
[17:19] <mahngiel> Glabalnet: yes, you'll be allowed to create a new partition
[17:19] <mahngiel> !pastebin |Take0n
[17:20] <netdur> mahngiel: but I did not play with that, can't mkdir at home even with sudo --- / is separate partition than /home
[17:20] <gasull> ubottu: double-clicking on the sound icon does nothing
[17:20] <l3ns> trism, how do u know that?
[17:20] <Dr_Willis> Silent_Echo:  thats for ubuntu and its variants.., try it and see i guess
[17:20] <Globalnet> thx
[17:20] <Dreamglider> JohnCDI: you can install Ubuntu from USB > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[17:20] <jeffmr_> anyone want to help me test remote desktop client?
[17:20] <trism> l3ns: because I see two when I search, xchat and xchat-gnome
[17:20] <l3ns> trism, i mean how did u know that that there are 2 xchats in the repo?
[17:20] <Take0n> mahngiel, I gave you a link to a paste site :\
[17:20] <JohnCDI> yea i dont have a usbstick
[17:20] <trism> l3ns: apt-cache search xchat
[17:20] <JohnCDI> kinda hoping for something over network
[17:20] <Take0n> I didn't know I have to use that specific one sorry
[17:21] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:21] <Take0n> there u go mahngiel http://paste.ubuntu.com/316121/
[17:21] <Dreamglider> JohnCDI: you can install Ubuntu via net -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#Server%20and%20network%20installations
[17:22] <l3ns> trism, aaah cool :) thanks a lot :)
[17:22] <mahngiel> Take0n: sorry, i don't have the knowledge to answer or troubleshoot with u
[17:22] <Take0n> no problem :) thanks for taking time to see through my problem
[17:23] <gasull> I added my user to the audio group.  I'm going to reboot.
[17:23] <mahngiel> Take0n: just looks like the scripting has errors in it, since it doesn't recognize a style
[17:23] <mahngiel> good luck
[17:24] <Take0n> well it worked yesterday I don't remember doing something other than maybe applying a new theme
[17:24] <karmic_police> i have a stuod question bout queuing music to audacious
[17:24] <karmic_police> stupid*
[17:24] <sobersabre> I'm back.
[17:24] <c3l> I want to learn to make graphical programs in linux, how do I go ahead?
[17:24] <mahngiel> wb sober
[17:24] <sobersabre> about the grub2....
[17:25] <mahngiel> Take0n: perhaps the theme was written incorrectly
[17:25] <sobersabre> I am claiming that reinstalling grub is not enough, since initrd has some root file system reference, and for some reason it's not a good one.
[17:25] <zash> c3l: you could start by checking out quickly
[17:25] <Take0n> maybe but it show up everytime i log in to ubuntu
[17:25] <karmic_police> anyone know a music player program where you can right click on the song file and have it queue to the playlist?
[17:25] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:25] <KenBW2> is there a way to set a sort of alias for a pathname, so when i say "pDeposit" in Terminal it knows i mean "/home/kenneth/Tranferis/Inbox"?
[17:26] <sobersabre> karmic_police: I think amarok has this feature.
[17:26] <sobersabre> also rythmbox, and I think exaile.
[17:26] <OlaNordmann> ForLifesAnswers
[17:26] <sobersabre> I have grub2 problem guys.
[17:26] <sobersabre> I have repartitioned my hard disk.
[17:26] <mahngiel> have y'all found a decent GUI torrent client?
[17:26] <sobersabre> the partition numbers changed.
[17:26] <sobersabre> so I need to both update the fstab (done),
[17:26] <karmic_police> thanks.. will have to check it out.. does amorock have a decent equalizer?
[17:26] <sobersabre> update grub, and initrd (I suspect).
[17:26] <mahngiel> sobersabre: sda0 and sda1?
[17:27] <Pizza1337> whats fastest way to fix grub error 21, my friend has it, but he doesnt have livecd..
[17:27] <om26er> mahngiel: sudo apt-ge install deluge
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> karmic_police:  you could add a nautilus script to the menus to do that for most any player
[17:27] <sobersabre> mahngiel: what is sda0 !?! :)
[17:27] <c3l> zash, thanks. thing is that I want to learn the programming language. i.e not somehting too noobfriendly =)
[17:27] <sobersabre> root fs was at sda7, now it is at sda11.
[17:27] <sobersabre> and there's been other changes unrelated to grub.
[17:27] <mahngiel> om26er: thanks
[17:27] <karmic_police> is that an easy task? i am relatively new at ubuntu
[17:27] <sobersabre> I mean other partitions.
[17:28] <sobersabre> I managed to reinstall grub loader,
[17:28] <mahngiel> sobersabre: sda's are motherboard parts. typically this is how bios refers to partitions
[17:28] <mahngiel> sobersabre: *motherboard ports
[17:28] <Hilikus> karmic_police: the latest version doesn't have an EQ afaik
[17:28] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> karmic_police:  not too hard. the 'ububtu-tweak' program has some example scripts that may help or check the gnome-look.org site for more examples of nautilus scripts
[17:28] <sumeetbali> good morning everyone
[17:28] <l3ns> what linux command that can determine the number of connected computers on my network?
[17:28] <erUSUL> l3ns: namp ?
[17:28] <sobersabre> mahngiel: ok. but I still am under the impression that just reinstalling grub2 is not enough. and I need to recreate initrd with proper settings.
[17:29] <mahngiel> trancex: i'm not sure anybody has an answer to your issue at this moment. perhaps you need to view the properties of the panel
[17:29] <mahngiel> trancex: and see if by default it is not setup to be on the side
[17:29] <sobersabre> maybe I should run dpkg-reconfigure on the kernel image package ?
[17:29] <sobersabre> would this rebuild initrd ?
[17:30] <erUSUL> sobersabre: update-initramfs
[17:30] <demon_D_MAN> hi everyone
[17:30] <Dr_Willis> sobersabre:  You  sure you need to rebuld the initrd?
[17:30] <l3ns> erUSUL, namp is command not found...
[17:30] <erUSUL> sobersabre: « update-initramfs -u » iirc
[17:30] <mahngiel> trancex: right click on your panel > properties > General tab > Orientation... what does it say?
[17:30] <erUSUL> l3ns: install it. you may want to install zenmap (a gui for it)
[17:30] <erUSUL> l3ns: nmap is network scanner
[17:31] <l3ns> erUSUL, ah yea nmap :)
[17:31] <mahngiel> trancex: still here mate?

How can I increase this resolution?

[17:44] <demon_D_MAN> c++ is quit difficult if you never did any programming before
[17:45] <Scunizi> Mark21: from a terminal you could try nvidia-xconfig .. however I also think that your monitor isn't reporting what it's capable of.. in terminal you could type xrandr and it will display all the resolutions that it picked up from the monitor.. an asterisk will be next to the rez that is currently being used.
[17:45] <demon_D_MAN> Using pidgin :D
[17:45] <demon_D_MAN> it's indeed anoying

[18:11] <kartook_> how to increase the chat windows fontsize on Quassel?
[18:11] <rooist47> is there new in the ubuntu studio 9.10 theme ?
[18:11] <UnnamedPlayer> iceroot: it found a bunch of kernels then finished with "Updating /boot/grub/menu.lst" with no mention of adding windows
[18:12] <jlabomb> I have a dual monitor setup and since I upgraded to 9.10 the log screen is on the wrong monitor any ideas?
[18:12] <your_face> ew ubuntu
[18:14] <nvme> would ubuntu run better in virtual box than xubuntu ? (performance wise)
[18:14] <c3l> nvme, why would there be any difference?
[18:15] <kell05tux>  nvme in theory no but the difference in memory footprint may help
[18:15] <Vince> nvme: about the same, they've taken XFCE and pretty much destroyed everything that made it lighter than Gnome.
[18:15] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[18:15] <nvme> Vince, ah okay thast what i wanted to know
[18:15] <jlabomb> I have a dual monitor setup and since I upgraded to 9.10 the log screen is on the wrong monitor any ideas?
[18:15] <kell05tux> trancex - i know how to reset  it if that would help?
[18:15] <UnnamedPlayer> How do I add Windows 7 to my grub loader?
[18:16] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, what version of grub ?
[18:16] <UnnamedPlayer> Grub 2 apparently
[18:17] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, it should have picked up on install, but if it hasnt then do 'sudo grub-update' and it will find it
[18:17] <trancex> kollstux - how to rest what  dude ?
[18:17] <ct529> hi! I would like to play some .m4p files
[18:17] <UnnamedPlayer> nvme: tried that but the printout had no mention of windows, just the various kernels
[18:17] <kell05tux> Reset the pannel
[18:17] <etnalubma_> hi, I'm trying to burn the karmic installation iso, but it fails everytime, the iso md5sum is correct
[18:18] <gasull> http://dpaste.com/119262/  Any ideas why I don't have sound?
[18:18] <jlabomb> Also another anomaly of the Dual screen is some flash sites will not play in full screen they will have a large black box filling the screen and the video is the same size
[18:18] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, do 'lls /etc/grub.d/ ' , do you see a file 30_osprober ?
[18:18] <epinky> ct529: VLC player
[18:18] <etnalubma_> I've tried with brasero and nero
[18:18] <etnalubma_> is there anything I can do?
[18:18] <gasull> etnalubma_: run the iso burning program from the terminal, so you can see the error
[18:19] <UnnamedPlayer> nvme: "No comman 'lls' found, but there are 18 similar ones"
[18:19] <ct529> epinky: no .... I tried but nothing comes out of it ....
[18:19] <gasull> etnalubma_: Are you burning it from Windows?  With Nero?
[18:19] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, sry it should be 'ls /etc/grub.d/
[18:19] <nvme> no quotes :P
[18:19] <etnalubma_> gasull, I've tried brasero first
[18:19] <UnnamedPlayer> nvme: yes it's there
[18:19] <etnalubma_> gasull, run a couple of simulations with nero on windows now, and it fails again
[18:19] <rafferty> so.... does anyone know of a way to watch live TV over the internet?
[18:20] <gasull> etnalubma_: It's weird.  Are you sure the checksum is right?  I would try downloading the .iso again.
[18:20] <rgr> compiling qc-usb using the module assistant. hell. qc-usb-source/qc-driver.c:824: error: 'struct urb' has no

[18:20] <sohail> hey guys, some weird stuff happening... I install ubuntu server and set a password but it does not let me log on using the password. I've tried it twice with two different passwords!
[18:20] <etnalubma_> gasull, yes, the checksum is right
[18:20] <jlabomb> has anyone else had this slow internet problem on 9.10?
[18:20] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, can you paste your output from update-grub here : http://paste.ubuntu.com

[18:21] <ct529> mahngiel: is not a sound problem
[18:21] <ct529> Your input can't be opened:
[18:21] <UnnamedPlayer> nvme: http://paste.ubuntu.com/316178/
[18:21] <ct529> VLC is unable to open the MRL 'http://www.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.pls?id=6660'. Check the log for details.
[18:21] <kell05tux> sudo apt-get remove <program-name>
[18:21] <ct529> that is the problem with radio stations
[18:21] <sohail> epinky: even after doing that
[18:22] <sohail> something is weird
[18:22] <ct529> gnubie: I think so .... let me see
[18:22] <mahngiel> jlabomb: not to my knowledge. you can surf the ubuntu forums
[18:22] <ct529> gnubie: I do not ....
[18:22] <jlabomb> mahngiel: I have been doing that, I found one step that fixed it until I rebooted  but seems like it is affecting a large ammount of people
[18:22] <jedi06> how do i find the officioal name of the program
[18:22] <ariadenvs> hi everybody
[18:22] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, is this an upgrade to 9.10 ? because thats not grub2
[18:22] <ct529> gnubie: but I would have thought that vlc were in the main repository
[18:23] <jedi06> actually i think i got it
[18:23] <epinky> sohail: maybe keyboard layout
[18:23] <Threetimes> ct529: it just works (in VLC) over here (vlc 1.0.2 on ubuntu 9.04)
[18:23] <UnnamedPlayer> nvme: okay then it's not grub 2
[18:23] <android6011> I am trying to use hdparm -y /dev/sda to spin down a 1tb samsung hard drive but it is not working. the status always stays active/idle
[18:23] <ariadenvs> Any idea how to change the default listening port for VNC on Ubuntu 9.10?
[18:23] <UnnamedPlayer> nvme: sorry was told it was
[18:23] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, did you updgrade from 9.04 ? or fresh 9.10 install, also try sudo grub2-update
[18:23] <gnubie> ct529,  I nstalled vlc after installing medibuntu and it has more codecs stuff with it.
[18:23] <cankoy> jedi06: start Synaptic and search
[18:23] <mahngiel> jlabomb: as with any new release, there are always kinks. just like the suspend issue on laptops
[18:23] <gabrieleUbuntu> Hi to all. I'm unable to connect to any network using my DWL-G122 USB key. It does see networks around but it indefinitely tried to connect to them. I had this problem with Ubuntu 9.04. Now I'm on Ubuntu 9.10 having the same problem. Any suggestion, please? Thanks
[18:24] <mahngiel> jlabomb: just gotta wait it out i guess bro
[18:24] <ct529> Threetimes: what works?
[18:24] <ct529> Threetimes: did you install from medibuntu?
[18:24] <ariadenvs> How did you solve it on Ubuntu 9.04?
[18:24] <jlabomb> mahngiel: I have a laptop that 9.10 wont boot in is that what you mean?
[18:24] <Threetimes> ct529: playing your radio station in vlc works
[18:24] <ct529> Threetimes: thanks .... did you install from mediubuntu?
[18:24] <UnnamedPlayer> nvme: upgraded via upgrade manager, also grub2-update: command not found
[18:24] <Threetimes> ctop: just the regular ubuntu
[18:24] <mahngiel> jlabomb: the suspend you referring to?
[18:25] <sohail> epinky: hmm, maybe
[18:25] <ct529> Threetimes: I have 904 with standard vlc .... why does it not work ....
[18:25] <ct529> Threetimes: 32bit or 64bit
[18:25] <ct529> Threetimes: ?
[18:25] <jlabomb> yeah when you try to boot live cd or from update it just sits in black with a cursor blinking on my laptop
[18:25] <gasull> etnalubma_: that's very strange.  I would try to download the .iso again.  If it doesn't work it might be a hardware issue.
[18:25] <Threetimes> ct529: 32 bits
[18:25] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, what does this print grub-install -v  ?
[18:25] <ct529> Threetimes: .... 64bit here
[18:25] <jlabomb> mahngiel:yeah when you try to boot live cd or from update it just sits in black with a cursor blinking on my laptop
[18:25] <epinky> sohail: just set an easy password to test
[18:25] <jedi06> is there anything i should do before i update to 9.10
[18:26] <mahngiel> jlabomb: yes, that is a huge issue atm . i've tried a few different kernels with no avail
[18:26] <sohail> epinky: yeah, I will do that

[18:26] <Rautamiekka> 15 minutes ago I started Ubuntu 9.10 LiveCD, to backup stuff from my C drive that my WinXPmce uses because there's a virus that causes frequent BlueScreens regarding to "win32k.sys". I was gonna install Win7 anyway. But, the problem is that 9.10 doesn't detect either of my IDE drives, thus preventing me from performing backup.
[18:26] <kell05tux> jedi06: backup, backup and expect it to tits up
[18:26] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, okay what you did was follow the instructions for reinstating grub 0.97 instead of grub1.97 (After you installed win7)
[18:26] <TheCheeze> anyone else having problems making xvids run on karmic?
[18:27] <jlabomb> mahngiel: ok I thought that was just me

[18:27] <Leonard_> guys - the ubuntu installer won't show up any of my partitions :(
[18:27] <nvme> UnnamedPlayer, try sudo apt-get grub2
[18:27] <fccf> Rautamiekka: can you see the drives from Gparted, aka the partition editor in System> Administrator?
[18:27] <ct529> Threetimes: still it is not clear why it does not play m4p files
[18:27] <ariadenvs> How do you change default port 5900 of VNC?
[18:27] <Rautamiekka> fccf: No, only the two SATA drives show up. It's as if the IDE drives aren't connected.
[18:28] <ariadenvs> --b n
[18:28] <Leonard_> Rautamiekka: you getting the same problem as me? i.e. no partitions show up in installation?
[18:28] <epinky> ct529: is it m4p or mp4?

[18:38] <nameless`> after the menu, the screen goes dark
[18:38] <LucidGuy> Simple question.  Do I have to restart dhcpd in order for new changes to the conf to take effect?
[18:38] <Scunizi> nameless`: what menu?
[18:38] <rgr> can I upgrade from 8.04 to 9.10?
[18:39] <Scunizi> nameless`: the live cd boot 1st menu?
[18:39] <Leonard_> nobody knows anything about partitions showing up in the ubuntu installation? shows up in cfdisk and gparted but not in the installation wizard at step 4 :)(
[18:39] <Stilgar_> bye
[18:39] <Leonard_> :(*
[18:39] <Pici> rgr: You'd need to upgrade to 8.10, then 9.04 first
[18:39] <jrib> rgr: 8.04 -> 8.10 -> 9.04 -> 9.10
[18:39] <rgr> whats best way from command line?
[18:39] <nameless`> Scunizi no i installed ubuntu without problems
[18:39] <jrib> !upgrade | rgr
[18:39] <ariadenvs> But you will not be able to change VNC port!!
[18:39] <rgr> thanks
[18:39] <Scunizi> rgr: yes if you upgrade one step at a time.. you might just wait for 10.04 which will be LTS and you'll be able to upgrade directly to it.
[18:39] <jrib> rgr: see the server instructions on that page
[18:39] <nameless`> Scunizi with the live cd i just had to add pci=noacpi
[18:39] <LucidGuy> rgr, sudo do-release-upgrade
[18:40] <nameless`> Scunizi but if i try to do that in the command line of the grub menu from the grub it still doesnt work
[18:40] <KnifeySpooney> Is there a way to refresh the weather applet using the terminal?
[18:40] <rgr> this not being able to compile and install for a quikcam is forcing the upgrade. I can only pray it works then.
[18:40] <Scunizi> nameless`: ah.. so it's on boot of an installed system.. you'll need to add pci=noacpi to the kernel line of the grub menu as well..

[18:42] <akiva> So, I switched from Amarok, since 1.4 is buggy as hell with ALSA and I cannot stand v2. I am still deciding between Exaile and Banshee. However, I am still looking for a good Tagging app. I like mass tagging ... EasyTag? I don't know how to use it ... Suggestions?

[18:43] <mahngiel> hahaah thanks. damned kids
[18:43] <gabrieleUbuntu> Scunizi: Installed WICD but, as already happened in 9.04, it hasn't solved my problem
[18:43] <Scunizi> mahngiel: it's a known bug.. might not have been the kids.
[18:43] <an0nmat1r> rythmbox is a great player

[18:44] <Scunizi> mahngiel: yea.. I use every excuse I can to remind them that I think I'm in charge :)
[18:44] <trism> akiva: I like picard for automatic tagging, and kid3 for manual editing, dont really do mass tagging though
[18:44]  * mahngiel shares a chuckle with Scunizi
[18:44] <epinky> ArmyMan007: you don't specify your Ubuntu version
[18:44] <akiva> trism, how does Picard get the tag info?
[18:44] <benc1> Scunizi: ok
[18:44] <ArmyMan007> epinky: 10.4
[18:44] <trism> akiva: musicbrainz

[18:46] <sobersabre> hi, guys I think I've found what is wrong with grub on my machine. the file /boot/grub/grub.cfg has a wrong set root=(hd0,11) line.
[18:46] <sobersabre> It should have root=(hd0,10), since this is /dev/sda11,
[18:46] <UnnamedPlayer> okie...here goes everything
[18:46] <mahngiel> sobersabre: gratz
[18:46] <sobersabre> BUT I understand that in grub2 this file is autogenerated by something.
[18:46] <ArmyMan007> epinky: i got confuzed there, can u help me?
[18:46] <jrib> sobersabre: iirc grub2 starts counting at 1 now
[18:46] <sobersabre> well all I need from you is to tell me who is responsible to generate this file...
[18:46] <sobersabre> jrib: are you completely sure ?
[18:47] <jrib> sobersabre: no, I think that's true
[18:47] <sobersabre> because the disks are counted from 0....

[18:53] <trism> arbir: not sure how to easily get shutdown back in the menu, but you can add the shutdown applet anywhere on the panel you want
[18:53] <hellyes> anyone know of a good website development app for ubuntu?
[18:53] <jrib> rgr: you probably ran update-manager with some sort of devel switch?

[18:54] <dylan_> which one should i pick?
[18:54] <fccf> dylan_: what are you trying to do?
[18:54] <jrib> sobersabre: describe the problem.  All I know is you were looking for how to generate the grub2 file
[18:54] <dylan_> download drivers
[18:54] <dylan_> for my graphics card
[18:55] <jrib> !nvidia | dylan_
[18:55] <arbir> each time my system boots up, the volume is always muted
[18:55] <sobersabre> I had a bad partition scheme, so I: 1) backed up /, /var and /home, and 2) edited partition table, resized partitions, rebooted with a live CD, and restored the data.
[18:55] <fccf> dylan_: nope, what card do youhave?
[18:55] <dylan_> it's an intel card
[18:55] <arbir> oh man.. so many changes in 9.10, and hard to manage them.
[18:55] <sobersabre> the things I thought I still needed to do were: 1) update fstab to reflect the part. table changes, and 2)
[18:55] <jrib> dylan_: you shouldn't need to do anything then
[18:55] <dylan_> y not?
[18:55] <fccf> dylan_: that is already built in.. what version of ubuntu are you running?
[18:55] <sobersabre> 2) is to fix grub, and reinstall it.
[18:55] <dylan_> 9.10
[18:55] <arbir> i am not able to change the gdm login screen.
[18:55] <sobersabre> jrib: are you here so far ?
[18:56] <jrib> sobersabre: yes, can you just write it on one line though?
[18:56] <trism> arbir: oh, if you remove the fast user switcher from the panel, the shutdown menu options will automatically return to the system menu (just tested it)
[18:56] <dylan_> there's a new driver that just got realeased for my graphics card last month
[18:56] <dylan_> so i want to install that one
[18:56] <SaEeDIRHA> is here anyone know how can i connect to the internet using my mobile GRPS in ubuntu ?
[18:56] <jrib> dylan_: stick with the repositories
[18:56] <arbir> trism: yes :-) , i did that too...
[18:56] <sobersabre> I can try. anyway, I did this 1) and 2) by dropping into alternative CD's "rescue" option, and then chrooting to the new /, and I tried updating grub by: "update-grub". and rebooted.
[18:56] <arbir> trism: my shutdown wont work... i see the text based login screen and my computer hangs there
[18:56] <Sky[x]> how to fix grub ?
[18:57] <fccf> dylan_: and that driver isn't compiled to run with your kernel, so it won't work ... use the reccommend ones that come with ubuntu ,,, i.e. xorg-video-intel
[18:57] <jrib> !grub | Sky[x]
[18:57] <arbir> is this a grub issue ?

[18:59] <sobersabre> I know how to do this with extN partition. but not with swap.
[18:59] <scratchme> How do you validate what file had access denied?  As an example, Windows has a program made by SysInternals called ProcMon which monitors file/registry access.

[19:02] <Rautamiekka> cordor: Can you explain a bit more ? At first I understood that you have Ubuntu running and so forth, but now you gave me impression you aren't in Ubuntu cuz mouse doesn't work o.O
[19:02] <wizkid8> fccf: Thanks, I will check it out
[19:02] <scratchme> How do you validate what file had access denied?  As an example, Windows has a program made by SysInternals called ProcMon which monitors file/registry access.
[19:03] <fccf> scratchme: huh? what are you trying to do... linux has it's own permissioning system, I am not sure what you are trying to do
[19:03] <sobersabre> jrib: what do you want me to try without uuids ?
[19:04] <sobersabre> the grub or fstab ?
[19:04] <jrib> sobersabre: fstab
[19:04] <sobersabre> hm..
[19:04] <sobersabre> why ?
[19:04] <scratchme> fccf, I'm running sudo /usr/lib/nx/nx-node-login test-nx nx 22 nxserver --check
[19:04] <jrib> sobersabre: "for kicks"
[19:04] <sobersabre> hm....
[19:04] <sobersabre> any logic in the kicks ?
[19:04] <scratchme> fccf and I get Warning: Identity file not accessible: No such file or directory.  Permission denied (publickey,password)
[19:04] <jrib> sobersabre: I don't think you are putting the correct uuid
[19:04] <Sky[x]> find /boot/grub/stage1 this command not find the file what to do now ?
[19:05] <jrib> sobersabre: I'm leaning towards fstab being the issue
[19:05] <sobersabre> jrib: I can copy paste...
[19:05] <sobersabre> jrib: I see.
[19:05] <sobersabre> thanks it's not "the gremlins".
[19:05] <scratchme> fccf, so I'm trying to find out what file was denied so I can fix it.
[19:05] <jimmy51_> i'm installing 9.10 server on a proliant right now.  i think it just said it's setting up / as ext4.  is that safe?
[19:06] <fccf> scratchme: can you get a --verbose from that command
[19:06] <scratchme> jimmy51_, supposed to be.  Only time will really tell.
[19:06] <jrib> sobersabre: anyway using /dev/whatever and seeing what happens will give us more info
[19:06] <jpbaa1> how do i enable samba in firestarter?  sharing works fine with it off...
[19:06] <scratchme> fccf, --verbose adds no extra debugging.

[19:15] <jrib> |sanchez|: "stability issues" is too vague
[19:15] <stonewash> |sanchez|: it works like a charm

[19:16] <deathspike> Aight. Back to pidgin it is!
[19:16] <lovre> i think something is wrong with my GRUB. When i turn my comp on, it just stands there, nothing is counting, nothing is happening.... Then i have to switch my keyboard to PS/2 since it doesnt work on USB, and click Enter, and then switch back, its frustrating... Why doesnt it just countdown end enter kubuntu??
[19:16] <deathspike> Thanks, later :P
[19:16] <kubetto> any idea / personal choice?
[19:17] <DJones> deathspike: I went back to pidgin
[19:17] <jrib> kubetto: why are you not using ext3 instead of ext2?
[19:17] <Scunizi> lovre: is usb keyboard enabled in the bios?
[19:18] <kubetto> jrib because / is supposed to be a partition where less disk writing is required
[19:18] <lovre> Scunizi: i dont know, i suppose its not, but im not even sure there is such a possibility. But even if it were, i would like it to countdown and not wait for me to press enter...
[19:18] <jrib> kubetto: meh, why wouldn't you want journaling?
[19:18] <kubetto> jrib ext2 is said to be a bit faster because it has no journaling
[19:19] <ArmyMan007> how do i change the Grub perferences?
[19:19] <|sanchez|> jrib: well i just read reviews saying its buggy and i have 9.04 on my main work desktop dont want to mess it up during this quarter of school but wouldnt object to upgrading if any of those issues that originally existed have been resolved
[19:19] <|sanchez|> im just not sure where to look for 9.10 release notes/ bug report
[19:19] <ranjan> i am having an simple issue i recived 6 set different valus of secondary dns but in ubuntu 9.04 there is only an space for one i am wondering how to enter rest of the valus so i thought to edit resolv.conf file but right now i am mest up  with where should i enter the valus
[19:19] <Scunizi> lovre: motherboards with ps2 connections typically will have a bios option for a usb keyboard.. check there first.. it might just fix everything..
[19:19] <kubetto> jrib: so on such a partition might be a good choice
[19:19]  * ZachK_ is here and ready to give assistance
[19:20] <ranjan> rosebj :: jrib :: i am having an simple issue i recived 6 set different valus of secondary dns but in ubuntu 9.04 there is only an space for one i am wondering how to enter rest of the valus so i thought to edit resolv.conf file but right now i am mest up  with where should i enter the valus
[19:20] <lovre> Scunizi: this worked after i installed, it stopped after a few restarts, but i dont know why.
[19:20] <jrib> |sanchez|: you're still too vague.  Check bugs.ubuntu.com about specific bugs you care about.  Once ubuntu is released it is stable by definition.  It only receives security updates and major bug fixes.  Having said that, if 9.04 works for you, I don't see why you would mess with it :)
[19:20] <lovre> Scunizi: but i will sure give it a try
[19:20] <AntiProxy> does anyone know how Evolution mail client handles deleting mail off the server after X days? i've never been able to get this to work.. since i need to keep my mail on the server (for my blackberry to work) but i also would like to have evolution delete the mail eventually, say in a day.. but it never does
[19:20] <rashed2020> Do bitmap fonts have different sizes?
[19:20] <|sanchez|> jrib: because i always like trying out the newest linux distros :)
[19:20] <Scunizi> lovre: could have been an update that changed something.. so now it just "waits" because of some conflict
[19:20] <jrib> ranjan: you just list servers line by line
[19:21] <jrib> |sanchez|: that's what virtualizers are for
[19:21] <kubetto> jrib: googling around I found people using ext2 for /boot (not the whole /, AFAIK)
[19:21] <|sanchez|> i virtualize win 7 and freebsd
[19:21] <|sanchez|> its just that upgrade button on add/remove is so tempting to push :)
[19:21] <rosebj> ranjan, you can do multiple 'nameserver 0.0.0.0' statements
[19:21] <ZachK_> so anyone need help
[19:21] <jrib> |sanchez|: you might try a live cd of 9.10 to see if there are any issues that affect you
[19:21] <Scunizi> kubetto: must be old posts.. ext3 is ext2 with journaling
[19:21] <td123> anyone know what repos I have to add to upgrade to ubuntu 10.04?
[19:22] <|sanchez|> good call, cheers mate :)
[19:22] <scratchme> ZachK_, I'm trying to get the freenx server package to install on a fresh 9.10 install.  I'm using the instructions from this page, but no luck so far:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[19:22] <ttestt> всем привет
[19:22] <Scunizi> td123: ask in #ubuntu+1
[19:22] <Scunizi> !ru | ttestt
[19:22] <ttestt> sorry wrong channel
[19:22] <Scunizi> np
[19:23] <jrib> !pm | ranjan
[19:23] <ZachK_> scratchme: ok......hmmm
[19:23] <kubetto> scunizi: I know ext3 = ext2 + journaling. I was only interested to understand is such a choice might lead to improved performance / unrecoverable breakdowns :-)
[19:23] <ranjan> ok
[19:23] <Leonard_> I have a motherboard that has RAID on it - with sata slots - i had sata mode set to ide but ubuntu wouldnt see the drive in the installation - any ideas the best way?
[19:23] <jab06y> atheros ar242x with madwifi 2.6, anyone else had the inability to connect but the card displays networks
[19:23] <cankoy> ranjan: resolv.conf supports max 3 servers
[19:23] <jab06y> im running intrepid
[19:23] <Leonard_> I cant install because it wont see the drive at all
[19:24] <Scunizi> kubetto: without journaling ext2 can't recover if there is an issue
[19:24] <td123> Scunizi: this is ubuntu +1
[19:24] <td123> Scunizi: :P
[19:24] <Scunizi> td123: nope
[19:24] <td123> Scunizi: ya
[19:24] <Scunizi> nope
[19:24] <vyper> anyone know how to setup odbc connection on jaunty?
[19:24] <td123> Scunizi: /j #ubuntu+1
[19:25] <td123> Scunizi: you'll get redirected to #ubuntu
[19:25] <ranjan> cankoy :: but i have recived 6 set of different dns value as secondry ones
[19:25] <td123> Scunizi: so yes
[19:25] <kubetto> scunizi: but is this "risk" worth? I mean, is ext3 so much SLOWER than ext2?
[19:25] <Scunizi> td123: ah.. hadn't tried that.. I guess they haven't activated it for 10.04 yet.. sorry for my confusion
[19:25] <cankoy> ranjan: then you'll have to pick 2, others won't be used even if you add them.
[19:26] <td123> Scunizi: anyway, I already found ah way, %s/karmic/ludid/g seems to work when applied to sources.lst
[19:26] <Leonard_> in IDE mode I can see the disk in gparted, in other modes I don't - but the installer still doesn't pick them up
[19:26] <Scunizi> td123: good.. then you're off and running!
[19:26] <td123> Scunizi: yup, ty anyways :)
[19:26] <Scunizi> td123: :)
[19:26] <ranjan> cankoy :: but how to chose this two sets of values ..
[19:27] <mahngiel> what is the translation for git on 9.1?
[19:27] <cankoy> ranjan: I cant tell.. ask the person who provided them.

[19:27] <gasull_> Hi. After fresh install of Ubuntu Karmic 9.10 I have no sound but I do get sound in gstreamer-properties. Any idea what's wrong? Thank you.
[19:27] <Sondergaard> hey everybody. i'm new to ubuntu. and im looking for a music player that streams over lan/internet. and gets songlist from an sql database
[19:27] <mahngiel> !git | mahngiel
[19:28] <vyper> anyone know how to setup odbc connection on jaunty?
[19:28] <kubetto> scunizi: btw, I was thinking to convert / from ext2 to ext3... I am aware of the advantages of journaling and the conversion seems quite easy after all...
[19:28] <fccf> scratchme: I am recovering from a crash ... seems like the command you are using isn't in those instructions... is there a --user option... I think there it may need you to identify as a local user to access an X session... just a thought
[19:28] <Scunizi> kubetto: I'd do it...
[19:28] <Sondergaard> hey everybody. i'm new to ubuntu. and im looking for a music player that streams over lan/internet. and gets songlist from an sql database
[19:29] <prodleg> jrib: thanks for the links, but the only one there that helps is windows-specific. i can't find any docs that talk about installing to mac from anything but cd. :(
[19:29] <kubetto> scunizi: I think I will...
[19:29] <prodleg> hopefully i'm missing some somewhere
[19:29] <mahngiel> Sondergaard: banshee or VLC
[19:29] <nameless`> hi
[19:29] <Scunizi> kubetto: prior to ext4 (which I'm not running because of the release version I'm using) I've used reiserFS on sata drives with good success..
[19:30] <detrate_> has anyone had a problem when booting the 9.10 CD that they drop to a command line that does nothing for a while... then the ubuntu logo comes up... then the screen just turns black?
[19:30] <scratchme> fccf, I'll deal with it later.  I might try another approach.
[19:30] <scratchme> fccf, thx anyway.
[19:30] <nameless`> i would like some help from someone who did successfully install dual boot ubuntu 9.10 on a MacBook
[19:30] <Sondergaard> mahngiel,  okay. i'll look into it then
[19:30] <prodleg> nameless: same here :P
[19:30] <Scunizi> detrate_: is this after the initial menu and hitting "Try ubuntu without changes" ??
[19:30] <FoolishOwl> I've noticed that in some Linux distributions (Fedora, for instance), within Gnome, when you adjust a window size, there's a small window that displays the current window size. How can I enable that in Ubuntu?
[19:30] <kubetto> scunizi: yes reiserfs was another option, along with xfs that is said to be very good too
[19:30] <nameless`> prodleg which step ?
[19:30] <detrate_> Scunizi: either way
[19:31] <prodleg> can't do it from cd, need to know if there's any other workable way
[19:31] <detrate_> both take an unusually long time... then just go to a black screen
[19:31] <Scunizi> detrate_: so you never get the initial menu?
[19:31] <detrate_> I get the 'install or try'
[19:31] <detrate_> 'check memory, etc'
[19:31] <nameless`> prodleg yes you can, just F6 -> noacpi
[19:31] <Leonard_> Anyone else had a problem with ubuntu installation of 9.10 not showing up partitions?
[19:31] <detrate_> but I choose either install or try and it takes forever
[19:31] <Leonard_> step 4 of 6 - borked :(
[19:31] <detrate_> I checked the cd, verified the md5sum
[19:31] <kubetto> scunizi: actually I don't know if the biggest risk is using ext4 on /home or ext2 on / ;-D
[19:31] <prodleg> nameless, what?
[19:32] <Scunizi> detrate_: ok.. at that menu hit F6 and in the kernel line before quiet splash .. enter pci=nomsi and hit enter.. see if that works.
[19:32] <RayMcCoy> I have good download but terrible (less than 3kb/s) upload speed from my server in my local network, any tips? For more enfo please check this thread in the Ubuntu Forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1320471 thanks!
[19:32] <ranjan> cankoy :: well how many valus for search domins can be entered in resolv.conf file
[19:32] <Scunizi> kubetto: I know what you mean..
[19:32] <FoolishOwl> Is there a convenient way to display the window size when it's being changed?
[19:32] <rgr> I found someone with same compile error at the following link. Can someone please advise what I must do? There is mention of a patch but I have zero idea what patch they are talking about:

[19:33] <fccf> !hi stonewash
[19:33] <mahngiel> stonewash: hiiiiiiiiiiiii
[19:33] <nameless`> prodleg to start on the cd you have to boot with the "alt" key pressed, then on the cd menu, you have to press F6 and disable acpi to run on the livecd
[19:33] <BluesKaj> anyone using openssh to connect remotely thru a router ?
[19:33] <mahngiel> !hi | stonewash
[19:33] <Ericthegreat> hey
[19:33] <Ericthegreat> somehow I lost my trash bin
[19:33] <Ericthegreat> how do I get there from terminal...
[19:33] <kubetto> scunizi: that's why I am constantly making backups on external HD... I'll let you know if something goes (very) wrong...
[19:33] <tonyyarusso> Ericthegreat: define "lost".
[19:33] <prodleg> nameless: my cd drive is broken, i need an alternative way of doing it.  usb or from the internet for example
[19:33] <Scunizi> BluesKaj: there's probably lots of people.. what's the real question? how to accomplish that?
[19:33] <stonewash> mahngiel: trying to locate /boot/grub/menu.lst but cann't find
[19:33] <alecs> hi there
[19:33] <fccf> BluesKaj: yes, you need to port forward through your router to the server
[19:33] <cankoy> ranjan: man resolv.conf
[19:33] <Ericthegreat> I cant find it lol
[19:33] <mahngiel> Ericthegreat: did you delete it?
[19:34] <Ericthegreat> I think I may have
[19:34] <tonyyarusso> Ericthegreat: The location, or the icon?
[19:34] <Scunizi> kubetto: :)
[19:34] <Ericthegreat> prob icon
[19:34] <prodleg> nameless: but the only tutorials i can find for that kind of install are windows specific
[19:34] <tonyyarusso> Ericthegreat: right-click, add to panel, trash
[19:34] <detrate_> I don't see the option for pci=nomsi
[19:34] <mahngiel> stonewash: are you starting from ~ or filesys?
[19:34] <Scunizi> detrate_: there isn't one.. you have to type it in.
[19:34] <alecs> i have upgraded my 9.04 box to 9.10 ... and my display settings does not follows the previous settings ...
[19:34] <BluesKaj> fccf, yes i've setup the router on port 22
[19:34] <prodleg> blimey, is it always this busy in here?
[19:34] <BluesKaj> as per tutorials
[19:34] <detrate_> typing does nothing
[19:35] <stonewash> mahngiel: what is ~ ? and filesys ? please elaborate
[19:35] <nameless`> prodel did you use bootcamp and refit ?
[19:35] <fccf> BluesKaj: and you have openssh-server installed on the server?
[19:35] <nameless`> prodleg*
[19:35] <kubetto> scunizi: though at the moment I am not able to evaluate the actual performance improvement of ext4 vs. ext3 (brand new install of 9.10!)
[19:35] <BluesKaj> yes
[19:35] <detrate_> oh, I see
[19:35] <BluesKaj> fccf, yes
[19:35] <Ericthegreat> I cant add tio panel
[19:35] <sim_sim> Hi all! I'm trying to mount some partition that's not writable by anyone. At the moment, only root can do. Yet i put the right options in fstab, eg : defaults or even rw. I remount the stuff with mount -a. But it does not work. Any idea ?

[19:35] <beatpanic> hi, is there a ready made package of ffmpeg that supports .flv output?
[19:35] <fccf> BluesKaj: and you can access it locally from the network
[19:35] <beatpanic> thanks
[19:35] <sim_sim> thats writable **
[19:35] <detrate_> okay Scunizi
[19:35] <nameless`> sim_sim did you first take a look at $man mount ?
[19:35] <prodleg> nameless: can't use bootcamp, i'm on 10.4. got refit but i'm not sure where to start
[19:36] <mahngiel> stonewash: ~ is essentially /home/<user> directory. filesys is your hard drive
[19:36] <BluesKaj> fccf, I can ssh between linux boxes
[19:36] <petsounds> !resetpanels | Ericthegreat
[19:36] <sim_sim> nameless`, of cours i tried many options

[19:39] <rosebj> for some reason 9.10 thinks I have two cd drives when I only have one, /media lists cdrom and cdrom0

[19:40] <Ericthegreat> no way for me to get to trash without reseting panels?
[19:40] <stonewash> mahngiel: the one menu.lst or menu.1st
[19:40] <fccf> BluesKaj: perhaps /etc/opendns/something.conf ... sounds like opendns might be conflicting with your setup ... port forward to opendns and forward from there
[19:40] <genii> knyaz: eg: /join #ubuntu-ru
[19:40] <tonyyarusso> Ericthegreat: What's wrong with just adding it back like I told you?
[19:40] <Ericthegreat> I cant
[19:40] <Scunizi> kubetto: yep :)
[19:40] <mahngiel> stonewash: right... lol... but what are you trying to do with it?

[19:40] <knyaz> ou
[19:40] <bgs100> ArmyMan007, Do you have anything else that installs or removes something running?
[19:40] <sobersabre> I have a partition table and I'm not happy with it.

[19:41] <bgs100> ArmyMan007, Well, what applications do you have running?
[19:41] <tonyyarusso> ArmyMan007: Close anything other than the update manager that's involved with installing software.
[19:41] <stonewash> mahngiel: thanks pal
[19:42]  * mahngiel gets stonewas a cup o' tea
[19:42] <karmic_police> i have been trying a couple. i have about 300 gb of music and was wondering which would be best for playlists and queuing
[19:42] <prodleg> tonyyarusso: everything's windows-specific ;_;
[19:42] <stonewash> mahngiel: nice
[19:42] <ArmyMan007> tonyyarusso: i have nothing that has to do with installing anything!
[19:42] <ArmyMan007> bgs100: just this chat, firefox and the update manager
[19:42] <karmic_police> i'm a bit of a newbie and was just getting different opinions
[19:42] <tonyyarusso> ArmyMan007: maybe you have automatic updates running in the background?
[19:42] <ArmyMan007> tonyyarusso: pm?
[19:42] <prodleg> is there any way of burning an ISO to USB on a mac?
[19:42] <ArmyMan007> bgs100: pm?
[19:42] <tonyyarusso> ArmyMan007: no real point - we can talk here.
[19:42] <petsounds> ArmyMan007 : restart
[19:43] <rosebj> for some reason 9.10 thinks I have two cd drives when I only have one, /media lists cdrom and cdrom0
[19:43] <BluesKaj> fccf, the server pc uses opendns, but the client (laptop) is using a different network (neighbour's unsecured).
[19:43] <ArmyMan007> petsounds: it will just tell me that message again
[19:43] <Ericthegreat> so no one can tell me how to add back recycleing bin without reseting my custom toolbar?
[19:43] <ArmyMan007> tonyyarusso: how do i know if i have anything in the backround?
[19:43] <petsounds> ArmyMan007 : then change your archive mirror
[19:43] <ArmyMan007> petsounds: how do i do that?
[19:43] <cankoy> rosebj: they're same, one is a symlink to other.
[19:43] <szili> I need a program to look at the one of the networks bandwich.ex: if someone write on pidgin then I see the IP address
[19:44] <Leonard_> Anyone know about RAID/SATA bios settings to make Ubuntu recognise my drive/partitions?
[19:44] <tonyyarusso> ArmyMan007: 'ps aux | grep apt' would be a start.
[19:44] <petsounds> ArmyMan007 : administration/software sources
[19:44] <fccf> BluesKaj: right for testing... but your opendns server is acting like a router as opposed to the router being the only router on your network,,, use the opendns server as a gateway (I think I said that right)
[19:44] <prodleg> how do i install the ISO on USB on a mac?
[19:44] <bgs100> ArmyMan007, Are you using XChat?
[19:44] <ArmyMan007> tonyyarusso: newbie here... step-by-step
[19:44] <Leonard_> does the ubuntu installation only install on a certain disk - i.e. hda or sda?
[19:44] <ArmyMan007> bgs100: no, Quassel
[19:44] <ydur> hi there!
[19:44] <p1oooop> Leonard_: software or hardware raid?
[19:45] <fccf> !hi | yd
[19:45] <mahngiel> terminal arguement for delete?
[19:45] <ArmyMan007> the update manager IS working, it just left out the updates which are not working!
[19:45] <fccf> mahngiel: rm ... see man rm
[19:45] <Scunizi> mahngiel: rm
[19:45] <mahngiel> thank u
[19:45] <tag> Oops-ID: 1411appserver104519  :-(
[19:45] <Leonard_> p1oooop: how do I tell :S
[19:45] <tonyyarusso> ArmyMan007: Applications > Administration > System Monitor, View > All Processes, Processes > sort by Process Name, look for "apt"
[19:45] <mahngiel> was just using 'm'
[19:45] <knyaz> ok, help me with pptpd please
[19:46] <p1oooop> Leonard_: so are you or are you not using raid?
[19:46] <prodleg> is there any way of installing the .iso to usb on a mac, and getting it to boot from that instead of using a cd?
[19:46] <prodleg> pleeeease
[19:46] <ArmyMan007> ok
[19:46] <tonyyarusso> prodleg: You might have better luck asking somewhere with Mac users - it won't be an Ubuntu-specific answer.
[19:46] <ArmyMan007> new question
[19:46] <Leonard_> p1oooop: afaik it's not using RAID - you can choose modes on the motherboard - IDE, RAID, AHCP
[19:46] <ArmyMan007> how do i set my lexmark printer??
[19:47] <Scunizi> !install | prodleg
[19:47] <tonyyarusso> !printing | ArmyMan007
[19:47] <BluesKaj> ok fccf , if change the router back to the ISP dns , then I'll have a more direct connection ?
[19:47] <prodleg> thanks, tried that, it was not helpful
[19:47] <Leonard_> p1oooop: I had it set to IDE before and Windows recognised it and I could install XP on to it easily - but with the same settings it wont detect it on step four of the installation
[19:48] <Leonard_> p1oooop: though it does show up in gparted/cfdisk :S
[19:48] <beatpanic> gaurav, works like a charm thanks
[19:48] <knyaz> How I can to adhere some connection to some ppp interface??? why don't work minunit in pptpd.options ?
[19:48] <knyaz> How I can to adhere some connection to some ppp interface??? why don't work minunit in pptpd.options ?
[19:48] <mahngiel> benefits/downgrade to installing git-core?
[19:48] <mahngiel> wtf
[19:48] <detrate_> Scunizi: it dropped me to $ again
[19:48] <yy> is there any Excel channel here ? For openoffice ?
[19:48] <tonyyarusso> !openoffice.org | yy
[19:48] <dutchbuntu> Welcome back, everyone ;)
[19:48] <knyaz> hey
[19:48] <knyaz> anebody ?
[19:48] <Scunizi> detrate_: could be an issue with the cd.. did you do a md5 check on it? burn it at the slowest speed?
[19:48] <mahngiel> !hi | knyaz
[19:48] <knyaz> *y
[19:48] <NickRiviera> exit
[19:48] <NickRiviera> exit
[19:49] <mbeierl> dangit.  Just lost mouse and focus again.  there's some strange bug that steals the mouse and then you cannot use it to click anymore - it still moves, but cannot be used for input.  Alt-tab stops working at the same time too.  Only restarting gdm fixes it
[19:49] <detrate_> yes, I md5 checked it
[19:49] <detrate_> and I even tried from a usb stick
[19:49] <fccf> BluesKaj: perhaps, ... ask in ##networking
[19:49] <knyaz> How I can to adhere some connection to some ppp interface??? why don't work minunit in pptpd.options ?
[19:49] <Xubuntus> Is there a STANDARD GUI for mplayer? I get mplayer to play a file in a window. But that's it. No controls or anything!!
[19:49] <stonewash> mahngiel: found grub.cfg under /boot/grub. hopefully will solve my problem
[19:49] <Ericthegreat> so could anyone tell me a way to get to trash without resetiing my toolbars?
[19:49] <Scunizi> detrate_: unfortunately I've run out of ideas.. sorry
[19:49] <stonewash> mahngiel: thanks, bb
[19:49] <detrate_> :-\
[19:49] <mahngiel> stonewash: good luck mate
[19:50] <detrate_> thanks anyway
[19:50] <Scunizi> Xubuntus: yes.. I think it's smplayer
[19:50] <detrate_> 9.04 works just fine for me.. guess I'll just install that and upgrade
[19:50] <mahngiel> can someone tell me the diff between using git-core or apt-core?
[19:50] <Scunizi> detrate_: that'll work!
[19:50] <detrate_> it's a shame this release is giving people so many problems :-\
[19:50] <jforman> where might i find the logs for using the openvpn plugin for network manager? i've setup a connection config in there, but when i go to initiate it, nothing happens (the icon doesnot change, etc)
[19:50] <Xubuntus> Scunizi, sure?
[19:51] <dAlfa89_> detrate_, you'll run into even more problems if you try and upgrade from 9.04  o:
[19:51] <Scunizi> detrate_: I know.. I haven't made the jump yet.. in here you get to see all the problems.. but really there are tons of successful installs/upgrades
[19:51] <Xubuntus> Scunizi: In that case, where is smplayer? Shouldn't it come along with mplayer?
[19:51] <p1oooop> Leonard_: that was strange... :D
[19:51] <Scunizi> Xubuntus: look in Synaptic Package manager
[19:51] <heeen> http://heeen.de/DSC_3011.jpg
[19:51] <heeen> :(
[19:52] <p1oooop> ahh
[19:52] <Scunizi> Xubuntus: nope..
[19:52] <p1oooop> so it was flood...
[19:52] <p1oooop> LOL
[19:52] <p1oooop> elky: are all the flood bots operating?
[19:52] <Leonard_> p1oooop: lol was indeed
[19:52] <rgr> Anyone here got around the issue described here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/webcam-logitech-quickcam-express-633595/ where qc-usb sources wont comile in 8.04? Desperate to get my webcam working.
[19:52] <Leonard_> p1oooop: any ideas o the raid/sata/ide front? :S
[19:52] <p1oooop> Leonard_: my comp couldn't handle it....
[19:52] <Scunizi> Xubuntus: I just looked in synaptic.. smplayer is the qt front end for mplayer.. mplayer can be used at terminal for lots of options.
[19:53] <p1oooop> Leonard_: well... do you already have a raid array?
[19:53] <mahngiel> !pm | Sondergaard
[19:53] <Scunizi> Xubuntus: of course mplayers menu can be accessed with a right mouse click in the window :)
[19:53] <p1oooop> Leonard_: sorry I'm asking so many things...
[19:53] <Leonard_> no 0#- I only have the one sata drive plugged in which was being treat as an IDE as far as my limited knowledge could work out :P
[19:54] <Leonard_> p1oooop: no it's fine!
[19:54] <p1oooop> what happened??
[19:54] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[19:54] <mahngiel> O.o
[19:54] <Xubuntus> Scunizi: Yeah, I recently tested it at the terminal. But with just a window without controls, not much fun. And No, there is no working right-click here.
[19:55] <p1oooop> ....
[19:55] <Scunizi> Xubuntus: ah.. then sudo apt-get install smplayer should fix it.
[19:55] <p1oooop> #ubuntu is becoming a hellhole
[19:55] <dutchbuntu> Xubuntus, try gmplayer. Should be in the repos
[19:55] <maze-m> Hi there! I've installed the Netbook Remix from Ubuntu 9.10 on my EeePC and now if can't find the desktop-switcher.
[19:55] <dutchbuntu> Xubuntus, or what Scunizi siad...
[19:56] <petsounds> maze-m : they're removing it. too buggy
[19:56] <snarkster> hi can anyone point me in the right direction on how to use shermans aquarium as a kde screen saver
[19:56] <Scunizi> dutchbuntu: I don't see that in 9.04 .. just smplayer
[19:56] <icedwater> Anyone familiar with remastering Ubuntu?
[19:56] <p1oooop> wow... I go out and come back in and there are 200 more people
[19:56] <maze-m> Isn't it possible anymore to switch between the classic and Ubuntu UNR?
[19:56] <lampliter_> having some problems with an rs232 USB device.  usb analyzer showed lots of corrupted packets from a 9.10 system.  a different bit of  hardware w/ 9.04 showed fewer bad packets and worked with the usb rs232 device
[19:56] <p1oooop> fares: just leave...
[19:56] <icedwater> I'm trying to see if I can cleanly remove the gnome stuff from the average desktop ISO and put in, say, XFCE.
[19:56] <fccf> maze-m: there isn't one on the remix ... you can run gnome though, it is just a matter of installing ubuntu-desktop metapackage
[19:56] <dutchbuntu> Xubuntus, you're right. It's gnome-mplayer.
[19:56] <p1oooop> fares: come back a little later
[19:57] <Sondergaard> i want to make a local website to wish for music. and post it to sql dbase, and then the player get's the playlist from the sql dbase, Hoooow? xD
[19:57] <Scunizi> maze-m: they eliminated the switcher because of "issues"
[19:57] <petsounds> maze-m : im afraid not now. maybe in the upcoming LTS
[19:57] <lampliter_> any idea what is up with this usb problem?
[19:57] <dutchbuntu> Xubuntus, or smplayer. The choice is yours ;)
[19:58] <p1oooop> lampliter_: perhaps a bad driver?
[19:58] <p1oooop> lampliter_: either that or maybe the USB controller was destroyed somehow
[19:58] <maze-m> fccf: so there aren't any possibilities, to install it also?
[19:58] <veryhappy> hello
[19:58] <p1oooop> lampliter_: high-voltage accident? :D
[19:58] <lampliter_> could be but what changed between 904 adn 910
[19:58] <sobersabre> guys, I have a small question.
[19:58] <surgy> how do i open a terminal with my keyboard?
[19:58] <lampliter_> :-)
[19:59] <p1oooop> lampliter_: could..
[19:59] <lampliter_> driving lv lab equiptment
[19:59] <sobersabre> IS it possible that the installer uses a different partition table notation than grub ?
[19:59] <snarkster> surgy: alt-f2 then type terminal
[19:59] <p1oooop> lampliter_: you can always get an older kernel and compile it
[19:59] <dutchbuntu> surgy, press alt-f2 and type gnome-terminal
[19:59] <surgy> how do i change my resolution from the terminal?
[19:59] <rgr> how can one tell if the /dev/video0 device thinks there is a peice of HW attached to it?
[19:59] <p1oooop> lampliter_: kernels >> http://www.kernel.org
[19:59] <fccf> maze-m: yes ... you can install it ... the interface will be different though ... 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' in terminal ... then logout and at login screen click options, select session GNOME
[19:59] <Sondergaard> i want to make a local website to wish for music. and post it to sql dbase, and then the player get's the playlist from the sql dbase, Hoooow? xD
[19:59] <veryhappy> i have a problem: i want to build an ubuntu server but i have no idea howto setup the wireless lan with wpa_supplicant can anyone help me personally? ive looked already in ubuntuforum but i found no real helpful answers thank you
[20:00] <sobersabre> I mean is it possible that /dev/sda7 on installer notation is the same partition as grub thinks /dev/sda11 ?
[20:00] <dutchbuntu> surgy, Edit - Profile preferences
[20:00] <lampliter_> any recommendations for a rock solid usb pci card?
[20:00] <rgr> Sondergaard: invest about a year in learning html, css, php and mysql.
[20:00] <sobersabre> let me rephrase:
[20:00] <surgy> how do i change my resolution from the terminal
[20:00] <maze-m> fccf: okay, i'll test it ;)
[20:00] <maze-m> fccf: thx :)
[20:00] <p1oooop> lampliter_: are you trying USB ports from the ICH?
[20:00] <dutchbuntu> surgy, Edit - Profile preferences\
[20:00] <dutchbuntu> surgy, Edit - Profile preferences
[20:00] <Sondergaard> rgr i allready know
[20:01] <snarkster> surgy: you can open a terminal and edit xorg.conf i think
[20:01] <veryhappy> would be helpful if someone could help me
[20:01] <Scunizi> surgy: man xrandr
[20:01] <snarkster> unless they totally got away from it
[20:01] <lampliter_> p1oooop: no, via the sio over usb driver
[20:01] <sobersabre> when I'm booting via alternative CD, I choose "rescue", and then choose the proper (as I think) partition, i.e. /dev/sda11, AFTER I've chrooted, I can see */dev/sda7* mounted on /!!!
[20:01] <veryhappy> and i would be graceful
[20:02] <Sondergaard> rgr, my education is webdev :D
[20:02] <veryhappy> sorry i mean grateful :D
[20:02] <sobersabre> I'm going insane....
[20:02] <p1oooop> lampliter_: hmm... I dunno then dude.
[20:02] <izaak> lampliter_: i believe most cards would use the same chipset... i haven't heard of preferred cards, not in the case of firewire.  but if you really need recommendations check out newegg
[20:02] <p1oooop> lampliter_: you might wanna check in ##hardware
[20:02] <sobersabre> I think I'm going to repartition everything once again.
[20:02] <vlt> Hello. Is there a "copy images from camera and remove them afterwards" option in F-Spot?
[20:02] <p1oooop> lampliter_: you know, where it's less of a hellhol
[20:03] <lampliter_> k checking in ##hardware then
[20:03] <GammaX> How can I keep my nvidia xorg.conf from resetting after reboot?
[20:03] <p1oooop> lampliter_: k
[20:03] <sobersabre> guys, this is the moment when somebody is supposed to scraeam "Wait, sobersabre!"...
[20:04] <p1oooop> sobersabre: sorry... what?
[20:04] <p1oooop> sobersabre: what are you repartitioning?
[20:04] <lampliter_> p1oooop:  heh.  it is a bitch if you want to to know anything more than video,sound or games.
[20:04]  * izaak scraeams
[20:04] <BasiumDeJudas> question have anyone had the problem of 9.10 working fine for a few daysand then the root can not be found and will not boot either in safe mode or normal
[20:04] <Sondergaard> i want to make a local website to wish for music. and post it to sql dbase, and then the player get's the playlist from the sql dbase, Hoooow? xD
[20:04] <p1oooop> lampliter_: hm? ##hardware?
[20:05] <BasiumDeJudas> half ubuntu and half windows section ....
[20:05] <ScabbyMadman> hi
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[20:05] <sobersabre> aeazak! stop scraeaming :)
[20:05] <izaak> Sondergaard: have you checked out mpd?  it supports a bunch of different clients, maybe there's a web interface to it.
[20:05] <hayley> ?
[20:05] <sobersabre> p1oooop: I have repartitioned my hard disk...
[20:06] <p1oooop> sobersabre: ....... ok
[20:06] <Sondergaard> izaak,  a little. maybe i shoud look into it again ;:)
[20:06] <sobersabre> p1oooop: is your nick coming from "plop" ?
[20:06] <ScabbyMadman> how easy is it to uninstall pulseeaudio and  use an older sound service like esd or arts on  ubuntu 9.10?
[20:06] <p1oooop> sobersabre: idk...
[20:06] <veryhappy> so here is what you need; ndiswrapper (i know its not the best solution but i need wpa2 and a fast running solution) wpa_supplicant and a wireless usb stick from "AVM" that has the name "Fritz Box WLAN Mini USB Stick" thank you
[20:06] <p1oooop> sobersabre: more like 10 and p
[20:06] <Dimitree> Guys :/ DSL configuration for Ubuntu 9.10 is not working :( i did the same steps as for 9.04 but it fails to connect with DSL pppoe, i had to use in terminal pppoeconf to make it work ... any ideas ?
[20:07] <sobersabre> ok, anyway I am getting crazy :/
[20:07] <p1oooop> sobersabre: I've done that before
[20:07] <p1oooop> sobersabre: I just deal with being insane
[20:07] <sobersabre> "plop" is something argentinians say after a bad joke, to tell the listener the joke is over, and they may make themselves laughing.
[20:08] <sobersabre> p1oooop: I'm not dealing with it... I accept it.
[20:08] <ScabbyMadman> has anyone  nuked their pulse audio install and installed esound in its place?
[20:08] <tx3> quick question.. is a flag for traceroute so it only sends udp and doesnt return icmp?
[20:08] <tx3> is there**
[20:08] <sobersabre> ScabbyMadman: I did so with OSS.
[20:08] <sobersabre> esd sux a55.
[20:08] <sobersabre> in many senses.
[20:08] <sobersabre> tx3: traceroute works over ICMP (AFAIK)
[20:09] <ScabbyMadman> sobersabre and with OSS can you have more than one sound card/device?
[20:09] <tx3> under windows yes
[20:09] <ScabbyMadman> like  the onboard sound stufff and say an usb headseat?
[20:09] <lampliter_> ScabbyMadman: not whout losing your mind
[20:09] <Ch3wy> I installed Ubuntu 9.10 fresh with a pre-existing Windows Vista install. Should Ubuntu have installed Grub 2 or legacy?
[20:09] <sobersabre> and ICMP is application thing over UDP (AFAIK)
[20:09] <Xubuntus> SMPlayer now working. How do I tell it to NOT resize the movie/file being played (when I resize the windows)?!
[20:09] <Mack_> hi
[20:09] <tx3> but i heard there was a command for straight udp
[20:09] <tx3> oh
[20:09] <ScabbyMadman> lampliter_, lol
[20:09] <sobersabre> ScabbyMadman: yes.
[20:09] <Mack_> anyone know how to clone a hard drive from ubuntu?
[20:09] <erUSUL> Ch3wy: the former
[20:09] <ScabbyMadman> sobersabre, lampliter_ so its a non trivial install then ?
[20:09] <erUSUL> Mack_: clonezilla
[20:09] <Mack_> I want to clone / to /media/BACKUP
[20:10] <Mack_> erUSUL: does that work on the boot drive?
[20:10] <erUSUL> Mack_: or partimage if it is a partition
[20:10] <lampliter_> ScabbyMadman: seriously. I got bit by that problem when I tried to use naturally speaking in wine
[20:10] <lenswipe> guys i cant get an irc server setup on ubuntu
[20:10] <lenswipe> i cant find the config files
[20:10] <lenswipe> aparently they dont exist even tho i know they do
[20:10] <lampliter_>  never really found a solution
[20:10] <lenswipe> anyone got any
[20:10] <lenswipe> ideas?
[20:10] <FloodBot1> lenswipe: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:10] <Mack_> erUSUL: its the whole hdd, to an externa
[20:10] <Mack_> external*
[20:10] <lenswipe> !flood | FloodBot1
[20:11] <blue0488> how do I stop comiz??????
[20:11] <ScabbyMadman> lampliter_, im peeved off because  in pulse i cant seem to have two sound  cards available at the same time
[20:11] <ScabbyMadman> unless Ive missed some config option
[20:11] <erUSUL> blue0488: system>Preferences>Appearance || effects tab
[20:11] <veryhappy> Mack_: you could make a mirror i think with mc?
[20:11] <lampliter_> that is a limit of the underlying sound system
[20:11] <erUSUL> Mack_: then use clonezilla
[20:11] <lenswipe> blue0488, turn it off
[20:11] <Mack_> veryhappy: how would I go about doing that?
[20:11] <ScabbyMadman> lampliter_, and that suxks
[20:11] <blue0488> what is the     --replace comand????
[20:11] <lampliter_> linux gets an f- for sound support
[20:11] <mchomer> Hello guys, I've got a problem with the citrix xenapp, it doesn't work. Just SLL-61-Error.... Can somebody help?
[20:11] <Mack_> or erUSUL: where do I get clonezilla?
[20:12] <sobersabre> ScabbyMadman: I'm wrong, ICMP is on a side of TCP/UDP.
[20:12] <sobersabre> :)
[20:12] <fccf> Mack_: you will need to have the drive unmounted before starting if the drive is your OS drive ... so use the live disk and dd if=/dev/sda# of=/media/BACKUP/file.img bs=1k
[20:12] <erUSUL> !info clonezilla
[20:12] <Mack_> I'm an osx user, so I'm not that used to ubuntu
[20:12] <sobersabre> traceroute is using ICMP though.
[20:12] <ScabbyMadman> sobersabre, cant remember asking about net packet  types but thanks anyway
[20:12] <veryhappy> who has a solution for me?
[20:12] <Mack_> fccf: well not to a .img in it, /media/BACKUP as a FAT formatted drive
[20:12] <erUSUL> Mack_: http://clonezilla.org/
[20:12] <Mack_> so I would LIKE to be able to clone over that
[20:12] <ScabbyMadman> veryhappy, what makes you so unhappy?
[20:12] <Mack_> erUSUL: ok thanks
[20:13] <veryhappy> ScabbyMadman: i need a solution for my wlan under ubuntu
[20:13] <Mack_> I need to upgrade from ubuntu desktop to ubuntu server
[20:13] <Mack_> and I don't wanna loose my files
[20:13] <blue0488> I know I use comiz --replace to start it what is it to stop it??????
[20:13] <fccf> Mack_: in that case you would lose all permissions ... because FAT does not support linux permissions
[20:13] <sobersabre> ScabbyMadman: what do you want to achieve ?
[20:13] <lenswipe> guys i cant get an irc server setup on ubuntu
[20:13] <mbeierl> blue0488: killall compiz
[20:13] <veryhappy> Mack_: Synaptic /
[20:13] <lenswipe> i cant find the config files
[20:13] <Mack_> fccf: idc about permissions, I just need to be able to get the files off
[20:13] <lenswipe> aparently they dont exist even tho i know they do
[20:13] <ecolitan> hai guys
[20:13] <lenswipe> can someone help me setup an irc server on ubunyu
[20:14] <veryhappy> and then choose categories
[20:14] <lenswipe> i cant get it to work
[20:14] <lenswipe> can someone help me?
[20:14] <FloodBot1> lenswipe: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:14] <lenswipe> !spam | floodBot
[20:14] <lenswipe> !flood | FloodBot1
[20:14] <lenswipe> !flood | ubottu
[20:14] <fccf> Mack_: lemme make sure I understand properly... you are copying files off one drive and backing up to another... from your mac? or from ubuntu?
[20:14] <ScabbyMadman> me I want to be able to  use both my onboard sound device  for  regular sound playing and  use my USB headset fo r skype without having to open the sound preferences to toggle my choice every time
[20:15] <maze-m> fccf: I've installed "ubuntu-desktop" but now i cant't find the switcher for the desktop-mode...
[20:15] <jrib> lenswipe: please don't abuse the bots
[20:15] <mbeierl> lenswipe: ... they are bots...
[20:15] <ScabbyMadman> sobersabre,  me I want to be able to  use both my onboard sound device  for  regular sound playing and  use my USB headset fo r skype without having to open the sound preferences to toggle my choice every time
[20:15] <Mack_> fccf: using ubuntu, I would use my mac, but I cant find the usb enclosure
[20:15] <veryhappy> who has a solution ??? please
[20:15] <Mack_> its a relativly old computer, but it does the job of hosting a website
[20:15] <jrib> !helpme | veryhappy
[20:15] <ScabbyMadman> veryhappy, what are you asking?
[20:15] <sobersabre> ScabbyMadman: it works for me with OSS.
[20:15] <erUSUL> Mack_: fat can not hold files bigger than 4GiB so a disk image is going to be hard to store in a fat drive
[20:15] <ecolitan> i'm looking for help on software to use for organising a large event, such as a wedding. It should have some tasks management, scheduling-calenders, contacts usw
[20:16] <sobersabre> but skype bast**ds started supporting pulse.
[20:16] <ecolitan> any ideas?
[20:16] <mpweitekamp> I downloaded envyNG to update/install my drivers, however none of them are compatible or recommended... Any suggestions on updating my video driver??
[20:16] <veryhappy> ScabbyMadman: i need a solution for my ubuntu to run my wireless lan stick and want to use this at startup from the system
[20:16] <Mack_> erUSUL: I don't want to store a disk image, I want to clone the drive to the other drive
[20:16] <erUSUL> ecolitan: like MS Project ?
[20:16] <sobersabre> tx3: what are YOU trying to achieve?
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> ecolitan: sunbird can organise stuff
[20:16] <aaronorosen> Hey i just installed 9.10 and after installing the updates and rebooting the computer it won't actually boot up again. It just stays on virtual terminal 1 and the screen just blinks at me. It doesn't even let me login into the virtual terminal... Any ideas whats going on here?
[20:16] <lenswipe> ecolitan, check out open office project
[20:16] <Mack_> erUSUL: well, can that work with HFS+?
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: what video card?
[20:16] <ecolitan> i guess, but for ubuntu
[20:17] <lenswipe> ecolitan, check out open office project
[20:17] <fccf> maze-m: does it autologin? if so you will need to disable that to access the options and switch to GNOME
[20:17] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: ATI
[20:17] <ecolitan> will do lenswipe
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: check www.ati.com
[20:17] <lenswipe> :)
[20:17] <ScabbyMadman> veryhappy, so your wifi stick is it recognized at all?
[20:17] <lenswipe> ecolitan, its like ms project but free and for ubuntu
[20:17] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: they have it for linux? with instructions?
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: envyng isnt really advised
[20:17] <jujudesbois> Hello, i have karmic 9.10 remix, on aspire one. PB with skype, medibuntu repositories... No mic... Someone to help me?
[20:17] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: ya it seems dangerous, im considering uninstall asap
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: its a .run file, make is executable and run it, provided the support your card.
[20:18] <erUSUL> Mack_: i dunno really; read clonezilla docs
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: ati have sucky support
[20:18] <veryhappy> ScabbyMadman: my wifi stick is recognized i use ndiswrapper not a wonderful solution but i makes no problems
[20:18] <fccf> Mack_: to actually clone dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/dev/sdb1 bs=1k as an example ... with them unmounted
[20:18] <TheMidnightCoder> Anyone know how to move/copy screensavers from one computer to the other?
[20:18] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: ah ok, i think i can do that :) ty for assistance
[20:18] <maze-m> fccf: no, i've to write my user and password!
[20:18] <ScabbyMadman> veryhappy, so when you say at startup what do you mean?
[20:19] <Mack_> fccf:  could that be ran from an ubuntu server live cd?
[20:19] <fccf> maze-m: at that screen there should be an OPTIONS ... click there and click SELECT SESSION and gnome
[20:19] <janisoza1r> cli arbitrary precision calc?
[20:19] <jrib> janisoza1r: bc
[20:19] <janisoza1r> jrib: ty
[20:19] <erUSUL> janisoza1r: bc or dc ?
[20:20] <Xubuntus> How do I configure SMPlayer/mplayer to NOT resize the movie/file being played when I resize the window?
[20:20] <maze-m> fccf: yes, gnome works fine. but i havent't the classical desktop only UNR works :(
[20:20] <fccf> Mack_: probably not ... you would need something with a real CLI ... as opposed to what that has... possibly use DSL or PUPPY to clone with them unmounted
[20:20] <juancnh80> ¿como hago para chatear con lo gente de ubuntu venezuela
[20:20] <veryhappy> ScabbyMadman: i mean that i want to use this when my system boots up
[20:20] <mpweitekamp> wats the command to show your hardware?
[20:20] <wrgb> !info updatex
[20:20] <tonyyarusso> mpweitekamp: lshw
[20:20] <erUSUL> !es | juancnh80
[20:20] <surgy> hey guys whe n i shut down my computer it hangs and says the following error: ubuntu login: [56831.838017] Buffer I/O error on device Loop 0 logical block 3340293  and then it just stick there it wont shut down completely.... can someone help?
[20:20] <mpweitekamp> tonyyarusso: ty
[20:21] <JBLew_> i have problem: i can't install google-chrome using sudo
[20:21] <fccf> maze-m: right, but UNR doesn't have multiple desktops ... GNOME does
[20:21] <wrgb> !infor xupdate
[20:21] <veryhappy> ScabbyMadman: it shall become a server
[20:21] <ScabbyMadman> and ndiswrapper doesent load the  drivers at boot time?
[20:21] <wrgb> !info xupdate
[20:21] <mgv2> why does ubuntu isnt like win 7 in managing windows?
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> ScabbyMadman: you need to add ndiswrapper to /etc/modules
[20:21] <guntbert> !askthebot | wrgb
[20:21] <ScabbyMadman> yea acidic_
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> mgv2: win7 != ubuntu   so it wont be the same
[20:21] <ScabbyMadman> yea ActionParsnip
[20:21] <p-f> whenever I use hibernate-ram, I am greeted back by a black screen (monitor's still on, but all black). Keyboard input still works (capslock keys toggle the led, for example), but attempting to switch to the console seems to hard freeze the machine. Any ideas why? Hibernate-ram kind of sort of worked in Jaunty, i.e. it only kernel panicked once every 5 times instead of every time in Karmic...
[20:21] <maze-m> fccf: yes, but is it possible to get the classical desktop?
[20:22] <pronoy> mgv2: why isn't win7 like ubuntu in managing windows ?
[20:22] <ScabbyMadman> this is what veryhappy wants/needs to know
[20:22] <Mack_> fccf: well, I just burned a clonezilla live cd so that should work
[20:22] <GobiTheGoblin> Hi again guys =) How difficult in scale of 0-10 is to set up vlan via ssh connection, without actually going physically to the site?
[20:22] <pronoy> p-f: do you have a seperate swap memory ?
[20:22] <fccf> Mack_: that is a great solution, hadn't thought of that
[20:23] <p-f> pronoy, yep
[20:23] <lenswipe> afk
[20:23] <p-f> pronoy, although none of it is used right now, which is slightly worrying in some sense
[20:23] <pronoy> p-f: more than or equal to the ram?
[20:23] <MightyMu> g'day
[20:23] <veryhappy> ScabbyMadman: what do you mean this is what i need to know?
[20:23] <p-f> pronoy, about equal
[20:23] <veryhappy> i want to build a webserver ftp server and so on
[20:23] <p-f> pronoy, I'm talking about sleep by the way, not suspend to disk
[20:24] <veryhappy> and i need the wireless stick online from boot on
[20:24] <pronoy> p-f: oh, no idea then
[20:24] <hellyes> is there a comparable app to WINE that works better or is more diverse?
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> veryhappy: ftp isnt hugely secure
[20:24] <veryhappy> yes sftp better
[20:24] <p-f> pronoy, not sure where the swap comes into play with suspend to ram
[20:24] <jrib> hellyes: maybe cedega and crossover
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> hellyes: doom3 runs awesomely, as does them park world
[20:24] <wrgb> Isn't there a command to update the x-server if you're having problems running it?
[20:24] <hellyes> jrib: have you used those?
[20:24] <jrib> hellyes: no
[20:24] <ScabbyMadman> veryhappy, you need to add a little scripting to your boot process...infact you might find an example if you search ubuntuforums with terms like ndiswrapper modules load boot
[20:24] <Mack_> I'm surprised ubuntu recognizes right clicking on a mighty mouse
[20:24] <veryhappy> but thats not the problem now if i have questions to the server i ask you :) but i want to get it running the wireless lan
[20:24] <fccf> hellyes: uh, perhaps a virtualbox within ubuntu with a winxp guest, then you would have windows running simultainously with ubuntu
[20:25] <pronoy> hellyes: crossover, but its not as diverse as wine
[20:25] <p-f> pronoy, thanks anyway
[20:25] <marks256> How do I ssh into a remote machine, run a command, yet be able to close the tunnel without killing the program running?
[20:25] <akemi> anyone familiar with autossh?
[20:25] <p-f> hellyes, well, worst case there's always vmware and the like...
[20:25] <MK13> help? http://picpaste.com/pics/Screenshot-1.1257970238.png   :D
[20:25] <pronoy> p-f: sorry, wasn't able to help, try pasting ur question again
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> hellyes: cedega and crossover are wine alternatives but are paid for, you should check the app compatibility
[20:25] <gasull> hi. Does anybody know if it's possible to encrypt an already installed Ubuntu system?
[20:25] <MightyMu> marks256: screen
[20:25] <marks256> MightyMu, screen?
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> hellyes: virtualisation would require a valid windows license
[20:25] <MightyMu> gasull: yes, TrueCrypt
[20:26] <hellyes> ah
[20:26] <hellyes> i c
[20:26] <pronoy> fccf: check appdb
[20:26] <gasull> MightyMu: Not with LVM?
[20:26] <veryhappy> ok so guys sorry
[20:26] <veryhappy> i have to come back later
[20:26] <MightyMu> marks256: http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/
[20:26] <veryhappy> see u
[20:26] <akemi> i cant get autossh to run as a service under cygrunsrv without abruptly terminating due to host key error.. any ideas?
[20:26] <veryhappy> ty
[20:26] <FloodBot1> veryhappy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:26] <MightyMu> gasull: no?
[20:26] <marks256> MightyMu, thanks mate
[20:26] <GilJ> How do I autorejoin a channel after getting kicked in konversation?
[20:26] <hellyes> anyone ever gotten photoshop cs4 to run on ubuntu using WINE or an alternative?
[20:27] <jrib> !appdb | hellyes
[20:27] <veryhappy> bye
[20:27] <pronoy> hellyes: did you check the appdb?
[20:27] <gasull> MightyMu: I mean, you need Truecrypt instead of LVM for that, right?
[20:27] <gasull> MightyMu: I'm used to LVM
[20:27] <hellyes> jrib: what does that mean?  sorry, a little new to ubuntu
[20:27] <hellyes> pronoy: how do I check that?
[20:27]  * MightyMu hasn't used LVM, but will check to see how/if TrueCrypt works with it
[20:28] <marks256> MightyMu, I'm not sure that what i want
[20:28] <jrib> hellyes: ubottu gave you a link to winehq's appdb - a place to get help with windows apps
[20:28] <hellyes> ah, ok
[20:28] <hellyes> thanx
[20:28] <pronoy> hellyes: http://appdb.winehq.org
[20:28] <goose> what's the command to see all active users in terminal? (inluding SSH)?
[20:28] <jrib> goose: w
[20:28] <pronoy> goose: who
[20:28] <Mack_> anyone here have ubuntu server?
[20:28] <jrib> !anyone | Mack_
[20:28] <erUSUL> goose: "w" or "who" ?
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> !anyone | Mack_
[20:29] <pronoy> goose: who -a
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: like it
[20:29] <dassouki> why did I lose alt+tab in ubuntu
[20:29] <Mack_> ok then
[20:29] <rampage73> question of the day: upgraded to karmic from jaunty and now cannot mount 2 separate sata hard drives which are 250 gb internal ext3 , fdisk -l shows them as /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc both have a 1 after them to represent the partition, when i try and mount either of them i get mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist
[20:29] <dassouki> and how i can I renable double click to mute
[20:29] <ScabbyMadman> sobersabre, the weird thing is if I use skype 2.0.72 I can choose either the onboard audio or the USB device with messing  around with the  pulse audio spund preferences...so maybe its a skype issue
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> dassouki: are you using compiz?
[20:29] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: :)
[20:29] <dassouki> ActionParsnip: no
[20:29] <rampage73> oh yea these both worked fine in jaunty
[20:29] <mbeierl> odd. I just accepted the latest kernel update and after reboot, nvidia module was not recompiled and I had to drop to tty to do a reinstall of nvidia-kernel-source-185 to get it to go...
[20:29] <Mack_> can anyone tell the difference speed wise between server and desktop
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> dassouki: hmm, strange
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> Mack_: server is quicker due to less stuff running (like x servers and gnome desktop)
[20:30] <dassouki> ActionParsnip: agreed, although i had compiz enabled long time ago
[20:30] <ScabbyMadman> anyone here using the latest ubuntustudio?
[20:30] <keseldude> I'm looking for a package that adds a context menu to look up the highlighted word in the dictionary. Does such a package exist?
[20:30] <ScabbyMadman> keseldude, like for the whole desktop?
[20:31] <keseldude> yeah, or at least for gnome-terminal
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> dassouki: you could check in keyboard settings
[20:31] <ScabbyMadman> hmm
[20:31] <ScabbyMadman> keseldude,  man ispell
[20:31] <Mikec> anyone know what arg to pass to the mount command to mount a "DOS executable (device driver)" partition?
[20:31] <Mack_> ActionParsnip: thats what I had assumed, can you tell a difference in php loading speed?
[20:31] <keseldude> there's no manpage for it
[20:31] <ScabbyMadman> yeah
[20:31] <keseldude> maybe I don't have it installed
[20:31] <wrgb> Isn't there a command to update the x-server if you're having problems running it?
[20:32] <jrib> wrgb: why not just tell us what the issue is?
[20:32] <dassouki> ActionParsnip: you were right
[20:32] <dassouki> it was disabled
[20:32] <rampage73> anyone?
[20:32] <marks256> MightyMu, ok. i guess screen is what i need. thanks
[20:32] <Xubuntus> Thx for this time, people! Byebye.
[20:32] <MightyMu> marks256: it kicks ass. ;)
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> Mack_: not sure, i'd assume equal if you have enough resources, otherwise the desktop would be slower due to having to swap out data to swap
[20:32] <marks256> MightyMu, it looks like it! :D
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> dassouki: i try
[20:33] <Mack_> ActionParsnip: well, its an oldish computer, pentium 4
[20:33] <Deep6> guys is it possible to "theme" the new login screen?
[20:33] <akemi> anyone here used autossh under cygwin before?
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> Mack_: should be fine, depends what you run as well. If its a proper server then run server
[20:33] <MightyMu> Deep6: I sure hope so
[20:34] <Deep6> MightyMu: got any hints on how?
[20:34] <GobiTheGoblin> Do you know does this still apply with karmic: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/vlan  and do one have to reboot, in order to use vlan?
[20:34] <MightyMu> Deep6: this new gdm is awful
[20:34] <Deep6> is it gdm?
[20:34] <gisel> Enter text here...hiiiiiiiiii
[20:34] <Deep6> I am not even sure any more
[20:34] <dassouki> is there a way to mute the sound when the sound icon is double clicked just like in 9.04 and previous versions
[20:34] <tiox> Something is messed. I removed the old kernel (*.14) in favor for the new kernel I got through the updater (*.15) and now I cannot connect to the internet.
[20:34] <MightyMu> Deep6: there's a thread about it, but what I got from it it is taht you can change the background, colors, and fonts
[20:34] <fmlm78> ubuntu spanish
[20:34] <Mack_> ActionParsnip: I'm in the middle of converting it to server from desktop, thats y I wanted to clone the drive, but it runs sql, irc, web, mail, and ssh servers
[20:34] <Mack_> maybe one I'm forgetting
[20:34] <Deep6> that'd be a good start, do you have the link?
[20:35] <MightyMu> Deep6: lemme look, one sec
[20:35] <tiox> I had no problem before I completely removed the older kernel through Synaptic. Any suggestions?
[20:35] <rampage73> anyone help with mounting a filesystem?
[20:35] <dragan> how to install package for i386,486 on machine with i686 kernel(program worked in ubuntu 8.10 but make error 1 in 9.10)
[20:35] <richthegeek> hi, I'm looking to get a Wireless N dongle - anyone know one that works easily in Ubuntu 9.10?
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> Mack_: if you can get it running without desktop then do it?
[20:35] <wrgb> Is there a command to update the x-server if you're having problems running it?
[20:35] <tiox> rampage73: Just access the filesystem and type your password in.
[20:36] <erUSUL> dragan: what error? i386,486 i686 are all compatible
[20:36] <MightyMu> Deep6: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1202843
[20:36] <MightyMu> it's not terribly recent
[20:36] <tiox> That SHOULD do it anyway...
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> wrgb: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[20:36] <MightyMu> but hey, it's 50-some pages long, there's bound to be something useful in there
[20:36] <rampage73> tiox, not a network filesystem but an internal sata drive that used to work in jaunty
[20:37] <wrgb> ActionParsnip: thanx, I know there was one, couldn't remember it
[20:37] <tiox> Ooooh... sorry, I'm a nub myself.
[20:37] <tiox> :P
[20:37] <dragan> when i do sudo make error 1 no such directory but when i do sudo make -f :program was built for i486
[20:37] <rampage73> tiox, no problem we are all here to help and learn
[20:37] <erUSUL> dragan: so you are compiling something ...
[20:37] <dragan> yes
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> dragan: have you ran configure. You should read the readme or intstall file
[20:37] <rampage73> tiox, at least i know people can see me!
[20:38] <fccf> !server | Mack_
[20:38] <erUSUL> dragan: ActionParsnip is right (as usual ;P)
[20:38] <dragan> there is no cofigure
[20:38] <dragan> in readme just sudo make sudo make install
[20:38] <richthegeek> anyone know of a 802.11n dongle that works?
[20:38] <richthegeek> dongle or card, not bothered
[20:38] <rampage73> question of the day: upgraded to karmic from jaunty and now cannot mount 2 separate sata hard drives which are 250 gb internal ext3 , fdisk -l shows them as /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc both have a 1 after them to represent the partition, when i try and mount either of them i get mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist
[20:38] <Jetsetlemming> How do I run programs not listed in the Applications drop-down menu? I installed both 7zip and rar through the software center but I can't run either of them.
[20:39] <erUSUL> !hcl | richthegeek also www.linuxwireless.org has info
[20:39] <richthegeek> Jetsetlemming: press alt+f2
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: rare, specially after sailor jerry's
[20:39] <iceroot_> Jetsetlemming: terminal
[20:39] <tiox> Okay. I am going to make this as clear as can be. I had two kernels I can launch under GRUB, right? Last night I was asking about how to remove the older one to save some disk space and trim up my GRUB menu. What happened was, the next time I rebooted, I lost the capability to connect to the internet.
[20:39] <Mack_> Where does MySQL save the db in ubuntu 9.04 desktop? This way I can save the db
[20:39] <erUSUL> Jetsetlemming: both are command line but you can use them from file-roller
[20:39] <Jetsetlemming> How do I know what to type in the terminal, though?
[20:39] <iceroot_> Mack_: /var/lib/mysql/
[20:39] <richthegeek> Jetsetlemming: 7zip and rar just plug into the standard archive-manager software
[20:39] <erUSUL> Jetsetlemming: file roller is a GUI for compressors
[20:39] <iceroot_> Mack_: for saving the dp please use mysqldump and not the files on the filesystem
[20:39] <richthegeek> erUSUL, ubottu: thanks!
[20:39] <tiox> I am on ubuntu 9.10, using the most recent kernel (*.15)
[20:40] <Jetsetlemming> I needed to extract some rars and Archive Manager seems like it can only do some of them, I don't know why, that's why I was installing the other programs
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> tiox: you need to configure driver under the newer kernel
[20:40] <richthegeek> Jetsetlemming: install package "unrar"
[20:40] <Mack_> iceroot_: does mysqldump just give you the .sql files?
[20:41] <Nowaker> yes it does
[20:41] <tiox> Ugh... how do I go about doing that?
[20:41] <iceroot_> Mack_: yeah
[20:41] <erUSUL> Jetsetlemming: once rar is installed file-roller can create and extract any rar file
[20:41] <Mack_> iceroot_: wuts the command to import those? Or should I just use phpMyAdmin
[20:41] <tiox> I wish I knew that earlier... it was working while the old kernel was there.
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> tiox: you need to run: sudo lshw -C network    you will see what network device you have and websearch for guide
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> s
[20:41] <TheCheeze> so why do my media players (including vlc) not play xvids anymore after my karmic upgrade? i have some success using gnome-mplayer but would like vlc to work again
[20:42] <iceroot_> Mack_: import is   mysql --user=xxx --password=xxx < your-sql-file
[20:42] <Jetsetlemming> Is file roller the same thing as archive manager? That's what shows up in the software center if I search for the former term
[20:42] <tiox> I want to explain something. I cannot access the internet. Period.
[20:42] <MightyMu> Deep6: Let me know if you find anything useful in there. I just ended up getting mad and giving up. :)
[20:42] <iceroot_> Mack_: for export (mysqldump) read the manpage   man mysqldump
[20:42] <Mack_> iceroot_: ok thanks, I'm trying to learn sql anyways, this should help a bit
[20:42] <tiox> Oh... nevermind.
[20:42] <pIsIq> does ubuntu-moblin-netbook-remix works only on intel atom or it also works on older laps ?
[20:43] <rampage73> tiox, i am sorry what are you trying to do?
[20:43] <Mack_> wow clonezilla is really slow right now
[20:43] <TheCheeze> just put the desktop version on laptops
[20:43] <gisel> Enter text here...hiiiiiiii
[20:43] <erUSUL> !hi | gisel
[20:43] <kevin__> how do i install chromium on ubuntux86?
[20:43] <TheCheeze> the netbook remix is tailored to netbooks specifically pIsIq
[20:43] <tiox> I just want my internet connection back on Ubuntu, that's all.
[20:43] <Jetsetlemming> There there any way to get a simple "right click -> extract here" command like I can use with winrar in windows?
[20:43] <gisel> hi
[20:43] <MightyMu> Hi!
[20:43] <erUSUL> kevin__: i have added a ppa with daily builds works like a charm
[20:43] <tiox> I'll check that thing out and see fi I cannot configure things myself.
[20:43] <pIsIq> i got a older amilo 512ram, shall i but xubuntu or netbook remix ?
[20:43] <erUSUL> !ppa | kevin__
[20:44] <rampage73> tiox, wifi or cable?
[20:44] <fccf> Jetsetlemming: I think 7zip will do that
[20:44] <steve2> hey guys quick question
[20:44] <TheCheeze> pIsIq, do not try to use netbook remix. If it manages to install at all, it will not work right
[20:44] <keseldude> ah, I found what I wanted for a system-wide dictionary: Artha
[20:44] <fccf> pIsIq: I'd use xubuntu or just plain ubuntu on that machine
[20:45] <rampage73> steve2 shoot
[20:45] <pIsIq> hmm, so xubuntu right ? its faster then ubuntu-desktop ?
[20:45] <streblo> how do i get ubuntu to grab the correct time for my time zone
[20:45] <steve2> I have just got my updates that have poped up they all installed with no prob but It has new distribuion release 9.10 is available now if I take it am I gonna lose everything that is on my desktop and everything that I have installed
[20:46] <jrib> steve2: no, only if something goes wrong
[20:46] <rampage73> steve2, no just went through this with 4 pcs did not lose anything
[20:46] <ohmy> hi
[20:46] <steve2> so i can take this update without losing anything
[20:46] <Gametime> I am going to install ubuntu for the first time ever. How much space should i partition from my Windows 7 Computer?
[20:46] <fccf> pIsIq: in some cases yes, different hardware does different things, ubuntu runs OK on 512mb ram, in fact that is what I use on a virtual machine, whereas you might get a little better performance with xubuntu
[20:46] <trism_> steve2: you should always backup before doing a distribution upgrade though, in case you have problems
[20:46] <ohmy> Is there any descent ati driver for radeon x300 on karmic ?
[20:46] <erUSUL> Jetsetlemming: nautilus has that. file-roller provides it
[20:47] <rampage73> steve2, as far as i know yes like i said i did it 4 times here at home different hardware on each did not lose anything
[20:47] <docbrown> Gametime, i do 6-8 Gb in vm's
[20:47] <streblo> Gametime: how big is your hard drive
[20:47] <Gametime> its a 500gb.
[20:47] <steve2> well its just a couple movies and some games for the wii not a big deal if I lose them but I just wanted to know for sure thanks alot much appreciated
[20:47] <docbrown> Gametime, thats probably overkill
[20:47] <evilaim> Well, that was unexpected...
[20:47] <rampage73> steve2, of course this is not a guarantee that you won't just highly unlikely
[20:47] <evilaim> k3b doesn't see my cd drive...
[20:47] <fccf> ohmy: ati has discontinued support for that card in linux, there are some workarounds but you will have to search for them
[20:47] <steve2> thanks guys
[20:47] <docbrown> !paste
[20:47] <sassyn> hi
[20:47] <rampage73> steve2, no problem
[20:48] <sassyn> can some please tell how can I write a udev rule to run just once?
[20:48] <ohmy> fccf, i have seen some, but since i have a different kernel version i expect they wont work
[20:48] <Gametime> i have a 500gb hard drive, in which i take a lot of movies / music on it as well. Will 8 gb make all of my massive dreams of doing stuff with ubuntu be enough?
[20:48] <fccf> ohmy: keep searching, someone may have found a way
[20:48] <sassyn> can some please tell how can I write a udev rule to run just once?
[20:48] <ohmy> fccf, if you have any links it could be excellent maybe they are different from mine
[20:48] <ohmy> fccf, thank you
[20:48] <rampage73> upgraded to karmic from jaunty and now cannot mount 2 separate sata hard drives which are 250 gb internal ext3 , fdisk -l shows them as /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc both have a 1 after them to represent the partition, when i try and mount either of them i get mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist
[20:48] <docbrown> Gametime, it depends on what you want to do with the OS
[20:49] <rampage73> can anyone help?
[20:49] <dragan>  dragan: ActionParsnip is right (as usual ;P)?????
[20:49] <docbrown> Gametime, since youre new, i would recommend around 8GB
[20:49] <TheCheeze> pIsIq, do not try to use netbook remix. If it manages to install at all, it will not work right
[20:49] <streblo> Gametime: I usually set up ubuntu in a VM, and i give it 8GB. it depends on what you want to do with it, but if you're just screwing around, 8 is fine
[20:49] <fccf> ohmy: not here, that is a whole different cluster in a whole different state
[20:49] <Gametime> I play to do MANY things with linux: 8 gb is enough, you all agree?
[20:49] <docbrown> Gametime, do it
[20:49] <docbrown> lol
[20:49] <Gametime> Yes sir.
[20:49] <rampage73> Gametime, yes it is enough
[20:50] <sassyn> can some please tell how can I write a udev rule to run just once?
[20:50] <Gametime> Does anyone have a good website to help me find out what to do / how to enjoy my first moments in ubuntu?
[20:50] <erUSUL> Gametime: for root ? for roo + home ?
[20:50] <TheCheeze> so why do my media players (including vlc) not play xvids anymore after my karmic upgrade? i have some success using gnome-mplayer but would like vlc to work again
[20:50] <fccf> Gametime: www.ubuntupocketguide.com
[20:50] <Gametime> Tri boot: Ubuntu/XP/7
[20:50] <docbrown> fccf, nice
[20:50] <Gametime> thanks for all the help.
[20:50] <jrib> Gametime: help.ubuntu.com
[20:50] <fccf> Gametime: and wiki.ubuntu.com
[20:51] <docbrown> Gametime, first linux?
[20:51] <streblo> Gametime: if you've never used linux before, you'll probably have some moments of frustration. dont give up.
[20:51] <docbrown> Gametime, i was going to say the same thing streblo did
[20:51] <rampage73> Gametime, ditto
[20:52] <docbrown> streblo, isn't it funny how frustration becomes interesting and fun after a while
[20:52] <Gametime> first time ever im going on linux. im a very patient, quick learning, and understanding guy :D
[20:52] <rampage73> docbrown, lol so true
[20:52] <Gametime> will be a fun experience.
[20:52] <MightyMu> docbrown: It turns back into frustration on the other side, though
[20:52] <docbrown> Gametime, come back here often =)
[20:52] <dragan> a have read configure dough i just need to know is there any way to compile i386 or i486 packages from source on i686 ubuntu 9.10
[20:52] <streblo> ive used linux for about 6 years or so, and i still feel like a beginner some times, but i can do more with it than i can with any other operating system
[20:52] <dragan> that is all i need
[20:52] <docbrown> MightyMu, for me its only frustrating when there are time constraints
[20:53] <streblo> i came to this channel to ask a stupid question
[20:53] <TheCheeze> !ask | streblo
[20:53]  * MightyMu will happily provide a stupid answer
[20:53] <rampage73> same here
[20:53] <crazyspai> Is there a general chat that doesn't pertain to questions?
[20:53] <streblo> ubottu shut up
[20:53] <ranjan> #ubuntuone channel
[20:53] <Pici> crazyspai: #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:53] <erUSUL> !ot
[20:53] <rampage73> streblo, lol
[20:53] <ranjan> #ubuntuone channel
[20:54] <jrib> ranjan: ?
[20:54] <crazyspai> Thank you.
[20:54] <ranjan> sorry
[20:54] <rampage73> streblo, what was your question or has it been answered already
[20:54] <streblo> my question was: is there a utility that will set my clock for me
[20:54] <MightyMu> Yes!
[20:54] <erUSUL> streblo: system>preferences>date and time
[20:55] <kevin__> so i went to launchpad and i added ppa:chromiaum-daily/ppa  --- how do i actually use chromium browser?
[20:55] <goddard> i need some help with sshfs
[20:55] <goddard> anyone know how to work that
[20:55] <rampage73> streblo, i agree with erUSUL at this point
[20:55] <streblo> erUSUL: i dont see 'date and time'
[20:55] <jrib> streblo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime
[20:55] <jmdz> hi all can anyone point me to installing dtc on ubuntu lts
[20:55] <fccf> kevin__: after adding the ppa .. you still have to install cromimum ... then run it
[20:55] <vsMS> hey, can someone tell me how to keep a local ubuntu mirror controlled in sync?
[20:55] <kevin__> fccf, where do i install it? or how?
[20:55] <rampage73> streblo, my bad system administration time and date
[20:55] <erUSUL> streblo: my gui is in spanish look for something similar
[20:56] <TheCheeze> system - ADMINISTRATION - time and date
[20:56] <vsMS> I will do something like a dry run sync
[20:56] <streblo> i see nothing related to date/time, this is why i came here to ask
[20:56] <erUSUL> streblo: ahh ok is in administration not in preferences
[20:56] <rampage73> streblo, which version of ubuntu?
[20:56] <goddard> I need help with sshfs
[20:56] <fccf> kevin__: it will show up in packages ... or just 'sudo apt-get install cromimum' in terminal after running 'sudo apt-get update'
[20:56] <jrib> goddard: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[20:56] <goddard> my permissions aren't set correctly
[20:57] <kevin__> fccf, k i'll try that
[20:57] <tapple> how to see what files are installed by grub2-splashimages
[20:57] <goddard> drwx------ 1 1006  513    0 2009-11-10 17:23 laptop
[20:57] <goddard> drwx------ 1 1006  513    0 2009-11-10 17:23 laptop
[20:57] <kevin__> fccf, but is there a distinction bewteen chromium the game and the browser?
[20:57] <rampage73> should be under the system menu then administration then "time and date" if not i would say you can do it also on the CLI
[20:57] <trism_> streblo: you could try time-admin in a terminal
[20:57] <goddard> opps
[20:57] <goddard> it wont let me access any of the fiels
[20:57] <streblo> trism_: i just discovered that, thanks
[20:57] <rampage73> trism_, yes thanks learned something new today
[20:59] <unitedpotsmokers> hello, i install avast home for linux, how to make it run when login ubuntu?
[20:59] <goddard> I am on the fuse group
[20:59] <Viking667> quick question - how do I disable gdm and enable kdm? I'm getting weird errors from update-rc.d stating that the gdm script doesn't meet the LSB requirements, it seems that gdm has been converted to an upstart script.
[21:00] <goddard> all the permissions for the file are set corrrectly i believe
[21:00] <goddard> but it is running cygwin off a xp machine
[21:00] <evanescent> I install glipper on karmic, and I can't find the binary or add it to the panel
[21:00] <evanescent> is this a known bug
[21:00] <evanescent> it seems other people haev this problem also
[21:00] <luizrauber> hi...how are all;)! well.. i need a aiptek dv3300 funcionality an webcam in 9.04, this only func. an "pendrive"
[21:00] <KnifeySpooney> Is there a way to create a backup of compiz settings the same way you can in CCSM through the terminal? i want to use it in my backup script.
[21:01] <docbrown> installing firefox 3.6b2 and this is as far as i have gotten... http://paste.ubuntu.com/316300/
[21:01] <docbrown> whats next?
[21:01] <KnifeySpooney> docbrown: is there a new directory called firefox?
[21:01] <rampage73> can anyone help with mounting issue in karmic?
[21:01] <KnifeySpooney> in ~/firefox
[21:02] <sivang> hi all
[21:02] <KnifeySpooney> hi
[21:02] <rampage73> hi
 i think u need to read READ ME , but as traditional u need to ./configure, make , make install
[21:02] <docbrown> KnifeySpooney, i dont see one
[21:02] <sivang> does someone know of a software to recored or work like in cubase on ubuntu with a guitar USB external sound card?
[21:02] <sivang> it was identified nicely by HAL as the Zoom c5.1 device
[21:02] <sivang> however, not sure which software to use and how
[21:03] <docbrown> helper, i extracted via GUI, and said ./run-mozilla.sh but it didnt work either
[21:03] <rampage73> nope sorry sivang no clue on that one
[21:03] <helper> docbrown ok ./run-mozilla.sh what it give u ?
[21:03] <kevin__> will chromium update itself whenver there is a successful new build?
[21:03] <Xubuntus> Hi again! How do you forward in SMPlayer/mplayer (in a stream)? I can't jump to where I want to be!
[21:04] <docbrown> helper, said "cannot execute"
[21:04] <docbrown> helper, had admin privilidges
[21:05] <helper> docbrown only ? have you done by privilge access?
[21:05] <ydur> hi there!! i'm experiencing troubles with VLC..can anybody help me?
[21:05] <mirror_man> Hi, I need some help with xorg.conf, can anyone help?
[21:05] <nanotube> kevin__: if you enable the chromium daily ppa repository, then you'll see the new builds as soon as they are made.
[21:05] <docbrown> helper, don't understand... i said "sudo ./run-mozilla.sh" and keyed in my credentials
[21:05] <helper>  <mirror_man> such as ?
[21:05] <evanescent> does anyone have Glipper (clipboard manager) working in 9.10 (karmic) ?
[21:06] <trism_> Viking667: I read somewhere that you can disable upstart scripts by doing something like mv /etc/init/gdm.conf /etc/init/gdm.conf-disabled, but I haven't tried it yet...seems like an ugly solution, upstart still needs some work if there doesn't exist a better one yet
[21:06] <mirror_man> helper: Ubuntu 9.10 does not configure my screen res properly, it only gives 800x600 max and I want 1024x768. My monitor will support higher than this so that's ok. Graphics is intel 82865G. I made an xorg.conf and put the right line in section screen -> subsection display but the screen res is still 800x600 after rebooting. Question: how do I get ubuntu to recognise xorg.conf?
[21:06] <kevin__> nanotube, how do i enable it (or where)?
[21:06] <helper> docbrown maybe you need to chamod a+x ./run-mozilla.sh and then execute it
[21:06] <kiwifunk> Away -- comiendo
[21:06] <helper> docbrown sorry : chmod *
[21:06] <nanotube> kevin__: https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa
[21:06] <docbrown> helper, chmod gets me every time, i need to learn that one
[21:06] <ydur> hi there!! i'm experiencing troubles with VLC..can anybody help me?
[21:07] <docbrown> !chmod
[21:07] <rampage73> ydur, what kind of troubles?
[21:07] <helper> !xrandr | <mirror_man
[21:07] <ydur> rampage73 : total troubles..it crashes as i try to "open with" any kind of file
[21:08] <helper> docbrown work out ?
[21:08] <kevin__> i thought flash works now for chromium :( :(
[21:08] <ydur> rampage73 : it started with karmic..it used tu run properly
[21:08] <crazyspai> Ydur: I suggest trying to update and then restart.
[21:08] <nanotube> kevin__: it does. you just have to run with --enable-plugins option, because plugins aren't enabled by default.
[21:09] <Viking667> yeah, quite a few things changed in Karmic.
[21:09] <rampage73> ydur, no idea why it would do that have not even tried to use it in karmic yet
[21:09] <haws> i'm trying to setup iptables to redirect traffic on 80 to 8080 on ubuntu 9, but it doesnt
[21:09] <haws>              seem to work... any can help me with that ? (do i need to start the service? service
[21:09] <haws>              iptables start is failing with "unrecognized service")
[21:09] <rampage73> ydur, sorry
[21:09] <ydur> crazyspai updating vlc?
[21:09] <docbrown> helper, sorry did not
[21:09] <helper> haws you need to redirect port 80 to 8080 ?
[21:09] <rampage73> haws, there is no iptables service pretty much you type the command and hit enter and it is there
[21:09] <guntbert> docbrown: did you see http://linuxhub.net/2009/11/how-to-install-firefox-3-6-on-ubuntu-karmic-koala/ ?
[21:09] <ydur> crazyspai i tried reinstalling it both with the new ubuntu center and synaptic
[21:10] <mirror_man> helper: Thanks, I found some xrandr help on ubuntu and tried what it said but it made no difference.
[21:10] <ydur> crazyspai and still nothing
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> nanotube: i still add it due to habit
[21:10] <lenswipe> how to start an irc server on ubuntu?
[21:10] <lenswipe> how to start an irc server on ubuntu?
[21:10] <docbrown> guntbert, yes, i wanted to try my hand at the bz2... not going so well so far though!
[21:10] <lenswipe> ActionParsnip, do you know?
[21:10] <lenswipe> how to start an irc server on ubuntu?
[21:10] <crazyspai> ydur: You said when you did a open with it crashes. By "it" I assumed Linux.
[21:10] <helper> haws if redirect from 80 to port 8080 ,  iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080
[21:10] <nanotube> ActionParsnip: add what?
[21:10] <mirror_man> helper: but I will look at the link and see if it's anything different.
[21:10] <TheCheeze> ydur, what are your vlc issues? mine wont play xvid anymore
[21:11] <lenswipe> how to start an irc server on ubuntu?
[21:11] <guntbert> docbrown: ok, did you read !compile then?
[21:11] <nanotube> !patience | lenswipe
[21:11] <erUSUL> !repeat | lenswipe
[21:11] <Xubuntus> Since I don't USE a commandline as ChanServ tells me to paste it, I repeat the question.    How do you forward in SMPlayer/mplayer (in a stream)? I can't jump to where I want to be!
[21:11] <haws> helper: did something like that, let me try _exactly that_  now
[21:11] <rampage73> haws, here goes iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ethx -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080
[21:11] <ydur> crazyspai no, sorry, i meaned VLC (you dont'say "crash", isn't it?)
[21:11] <lenswipe> !botabuse | erSUL
[21:11] <docbrown> !gobble_tee_gook
[21:11] <rafferty> online TV? such as MSNBC... is there an app or desklet for Ubuntu like channelchooser?
[21:11] <docbrown> !compile
[21:11] <lenswipe> !botabuse | erUSUL
[21:12] <rampage73> haws, where ethx is what interface you are working with and xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the ip you want to send to
[21:12] <guntbert> lenswipe: please behave
[21:12] <Scunizi> Xubuntus: I've found some videos don't allow you to do that.. never figured out a way around it.
[21:12] <erUSUL> lenswipe: yeah that's the correct actitude. *plonk*
[21:12] <solexious> Is there a widget system for ubuntu?
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> nanotube: add the --enable-plugins
[21:12] <erUSUL> solexious: there are many. ubuntu uses mainly gtk+
[21:12] <tapple> how do I see what files grub2-splashimages installed?
[21:12] <haws> rampage73: i want to do it locally
[21:12] <ydur> TheCheeze i don't know what issues are..anyway mine doesn't play anything
[21:12] <docbrown> http://paste.ubuntu.com/316318/
[21:13] <haws> rampage73: helper: no luck with those... but also no status, no nothing
[21:13] <nanotube> ActionParsnip: what do you mean "still add it" - the chromium builds still require it, afaik, so you won't get flash if you run without it...
[21:13] <helper> haws can you paste what you want exactly
[21:13] <haws> rampage73: helper: the app is still appearing on 8080
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> nanotube: oh i see, glad i'm still adding it then#
[21:13] <hern> im having trouble adding windows7 to grub, tons of threads in forums and a lot of stuff to wade through? anyone know how I could get it to work? (64 bit ubuntu and 64 bit 7)
[21:13] <helper> haws yes it will you said you want to redirect from port 80 to 8080
[21:14] <nanotube> ActionParsnip: :)
[21:14]  * docbrown thought run-mozilla.sh would do the trick
[21:14] <rampage73> haws, oops do i have it backwards? do you want to redirect to port 80 or port 8080
[21:14] <mbeierl> lenswipe: you pick the irc server you want to run, then install it using apt.  Such as "sudo aptitude install ircd-irc2"
[21:14] <haws> rampage73: i wnat this (http://72.14.178.169:8080/) to open on 80 instead
[21:14] <lenswipe> mbeierl, i know how to use apt-get thanks its just when theyre installed they dont work
[21:14] <lenswipe> the connection is always refused
[21:14] <erUSUL> tapple: dpkg -L packagename
[21:14] <helper> haws i think this mean from 8080 to 80
[21:14] <ydur> what for VLC then?
[21:14] <mbeierl> lenswipe: then ask a question that people can answer correctly instead of just repeating yourself.
[21:15] <helper> [23:09:10] <haws> i'm trying to setup iptables to redirect traffic on 80 to 8080 on ubuntu 9, but it doesnt
[21:15] <rampage73> haws, well i had it backwards sry bout that use my previous line and switch where the 80 and 8080 are
[21:15] <rampage73> it should work
[21:15] <haws> rampage73: ok
[21:15] <haws> do i need to flush the old ones
[21:15] <haws> ?
[21:15] <lenswipe> mbeierl, you mean like the one i asked ages ago when i said "i cant get an irc server to work, the connection is always refused" but nobody actually paid attention
[21:16] <rampage73> haws, yep otherwise it will just append it to the existing rules
[21:16] <docbrown> anyone install firefox 3.6 beta?
[21:16] <kevin__> for chromium browser, i use chromium-browser --enable-plugins %U      but flash still doesn't work :( :( :(
[21:16] <mbeierl> lenswipe: you do know that we're all volunteers here, right?  That we're not being paid to know everything for everyone.
[21:17] <docbrown> mbeierl, you dont get a paycheck?
[21:17] <kubetto> hello again...
[21:17] <lenswipe> mbeierl, yes i did know that, its just when i ask something and then someone tells off for not asking in the right way when they obviously havent been paying attention....
[21:17] <ActionParsnip> docbrown: you need the mozilla ppa
[21:17] <FoolishOwl> Is there a way to display window dimensions when a window is resized? I've seen that in Gnome in Fedora, and I'd like to have it in Ubuntu.
[21:17] <kubetto> any italian user connected?
[21:17] <lenswipe> mbeierl, well frankly its p***ing annoying
[21:17] <guntbert> !it | kubetto
[21:17] <Xubuntus> Scunizi: Well. There is one solution. Skip Linux, run Windows.
[21:17] <Xubuntus> Sadly.
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> docbrown: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu karmic main     is the repo, you will need to sort the GPG out yourself
[21:18] <rampage73> mbeierl, we don't get paid?! man someone lied to me -- lOl (could not resist)
[21:18] <kubetto> ubottu: just to understand a question about translations, I am fine with this english-speaking channel :-)
[21:18] <domedagen> How do I install a brush for GIMP? Like the cloud brush used in this tutorial? http://gimp-tutorials.net/Creating-Fireball-and-Explosion-effect-in-Gimp ? Windows compatibly only?
[21:19] <haws> rampage73: it works now, thanks.. but do you have any idea why http://72.14.178.169:80/ fails, and http://72.14.178.169/ works?
[21:19] <nusch> is upgrading old debian to Ubuntu server as simple as changin repositories and upgrade or there are more significant changes ?
[21:19] <kraitos> i can't get the webcam to work on kopete in ubuntu. it said before that i needed jasper i installed and know it just shows a window saying no image received
[21:19] <Mack_> whats the argument for password? mysqldump —all-databases -u user
[21:19] <guntbert> nusch: no, those are different distros
[21:20] <rampage73> haws, no problem glad it works and no i do not know why that is other than you should not have to specify port 80 as it is the default http port?
[21:20] <docbrown> i guess i'll just wait for it
[21:20] <docbrown> 3.5 is SO SLOW on my system though

[21:21] <domedagen> Fredy qyevedo that's happning to me as well
[21:21] <nusch> guntbert: but after upgrading will the system completely braoken or just not having all features of ubuntu server, including init-ng instead of upstart ?
[21:21] <domedagen> Try again and again and again
[21:21] <my> please tell how to create apton cd
[21:21] <domedagen> It will boot
[21:21] <iceroot_> !aptoncd | my

[21:22] <Mahdi> How can i change boot menu in ubuntu 9.10
[21:22] <kevin__> streblo, it doesn't work for you either?
[21:23] <nanotube> kevin__: hm, strange, that works for me. do you have flash installed and where chromium can see it?
[21:23] <my> !offline means
[21:23] <buttons840> how can i tell my "box" to look to a certain IP address for it's DNS service?
[21:23] <gianluca> !it
[21:23] <docbrown> kevin__, there is no flash yet... its one of the first notifications on the site
[21:23] <fredyquevedo> hi, anyone else is having problems with upgrading 9.04 to 9.10
[21:23] <frostburn> is it possible to put the new volume button in the far right corner?  it used to be a separate gnome panel entity, now it's combined with the notification-area
[21:23] <rampage73> buttons840, /etc/resolv.conf edit that file
[21:23] <kevin__> hmmmf -- okay i guess i'll stick to firefox for all my flash video needs
[21:23] <nanotube> docbrown: i'm running the chromium daily builds, and flash works for me when run with --enable-plugins
[21:23] <Mahdi> It does not work sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[21:24] <docbrown> nanotube, well, you're the man then
[21:24] <domedagen> If it is fstab are you sure you partitionate correctly?
[21:24] <kraitos> i can't get the webcam to work on kopete in ubuntu. it said before that i needed jasper i installed and know it just shows a window saying no image received
[21:24] <ignomino> docbrown: flash in chromium is like 10x faster than ff
 why kopete is compatible with webcam ?
[21:25] <buttons840> rampage73, i can see the contents of that file, but i dont' know their meaning, is there a man page?
[21:25] <nanotube> kevin__: try sticking the libflashplayer.so into ~/.mozilla/plugins
[21:25] <stevensj> Mahdi:  the equivalent file is now /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[21:25] <domedagen> kevin__ What were you trying to do?
[21:25] <kevin__> nanotube, let me try that
[21:25] <buttons840> rampage73, nevermind, i found the man page, thanks
[21:25] <kraitos> helper, explain you question? i don't understand what you are trying to say
[21:25] <fredyquevedo> well i was running 9.04 fine, but after upgrade boot folder is empty
[21:25] <Gametime> newest ubuntu distro is 9.10, right?
[21:25] <nusch> fredyquevedo: everybody have - minor or major :)
[21:25] <kevin__> domedagen, get flash to work in latest chromium build
[21:25] <rampage73> buttons840, the file should look like "nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" where the x's represent the ip address of a dns server
[21:25] <Mahdi> stevensj: I. Tried it but coulnt save the file
[21:26] <rampage73> buttons840, if nothing is in that file then just type nameserver ip.add.re.ss  of dns server and save it
[21:26] <rampage73> lol k
[21:26] <Mahdi> stevensj: even with gksudo
 can i open webcam with kopete  ?

[21:27] <oo-dragon> hey all, im looking for some help setting ubuntu desktop 9.10 to boot up to a terminal only.  google has failed me!
[21:27] <kevin__> domedagen, x86
[21:27] <stevensj> Mahdi: sometimes I have that problem.  I'm not sure why.  Try sudo nano /boot/grub/grub.cfg.  Make sure that you have made a backup first.
[21:27] <buttons840> rampage73, yes, i got it, and found the man page so i'm set...    although now i'm trying to remember how to restart my internet connections, (similar to disconnect/reconnect)
[21:27] <evanescent> does anyone have Glipper (clipboard manager) working in 9.10 (karmic) ?
[21:28] <rampage73> oo-dragon, i believe this is under the start up applications menu and you want to stop gdm from loading
[21:28] <ZykoticK9> oo-dragon, see http://paste.ubuntu.com/316322/
[21:28] <rampage73> buttons840, /etc/init.d/networking restart

[21:30] <domedagen> Kevin__. Have you tried any guides? This can help http://jeanderuelle.blogspot.com/2009/07/enable-flash-on-google-chrome-linux-dev.html
[21:30] <Guest93275> hi

[21:31] <kevin__> this always happens when i try and use linux
[21:31] <oo-dragon> ZykoticK9, thanks!  i'll try that now :)
[21:32] <jeeves_moss> how can I get my modem working on a Toshiba P100?  I don't have an internet connection on the Linux box.  The modem reports as a "hdaudio soft data fax modem with smartCP" in windwos
[21:32] <buttons840> kevin__, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree      have you tried this?
[21:33] <ActionParsnip> !dialup | jeeves_moss
[21:33] <buttons840> kevin__, or, go into synaptic and check that flashplugin-nonfree is installed, or you may check other packages if you have something else you wish to try
[21:33] <kevin__> nanotube, ~/.mozilla/plugins does not exist
[21:34] <kevin__> buttons840, its installed
[21:34] <jeeves_moss> ActionParsnip, how can I install it if I installed the OS from USB?
[21:34] <nanotube> kevin__: create the plugins directory inside ~/.mozilla. then stick the .so in there.
[21:34] <ActionParsnip> kevin__: mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins
[21:34] <fredyquevedo> someone help!! I upgraded 9.04 to 9.10 and is not booting anymore
[21:34] <ActionParsnip> jeeves_moss: use an ethernet connection etc, until you get on your feet
[21:35]  * benpro is going to sleep - bye :)
[21:35] <jeeves_moss> ActionParsnip, I'm in "dialup land" out here
[21:35] <jeeves_moss> ActionParsnip, and this is the only box I have
[21:35] <enosis> hi guys, which sound card would you suggest for ubuntu that supports multi-channel output, and maybe have an optical out?
[21:35] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: hey my video card wasn't listed on the ATI website.
[21:35] <fmlm78> alguien sabe usar aircrack-ng
[21:35] <fmlm78> ?
[21:35] <lampliter_> I need to build a drop box service for sharing files between different partners fo my company.  Ideally it should be a drag and drop or browser type interface.  I'm ok building the ui but am unsure about the upload part.  I'd just use a multi-part upload to a web server except that usually dies in less than 100mb
[21:35] <nanotube> !es | fmlm78
[21:35] <fmlm78> ok
[21:35] <mpweitekamp> any recommendations on the easiest way of updating my video drivers??
[21:35] <eddym> who is using ps2 eye toy camera here?
[21:36] <eddym> for ubuntu
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> jeeves_moss: looks like you will need that or download the packages to get on your feet
[21:36] <jeeves_moss> ActionParsnip, how can I mount the installer ISO on the OS so it always mounts, and shows up in the APT list
[21:36] <kevin__> nanotube, sudo cp /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/
[21:36] <stevensj> What controls the resolution of the login screen?  How can I change it?
[21:36] <unixp> whats the  main different between ubuntu 9.10 an ubuntu remix for netbooks?
[21:36] <Milligan> fredyquevedo, try booting an older kernel .. the oldest in your menu. Your comp will probably boot. After that's done, reboot again, and the new kernel might work. Atleast that fixed it for me.
[21:36] <amgarchIn9> anybode else experiencing strange crashes on 8.04 LTS after recent upgrades?
[21:36] <kevin__> nanotube, still no flash for me :(
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: then you need to use the open driver because ati think your device is too old, nvidia don't do this
[21:37] <nanotube> kevin__: your libflashplayer in your home dir should be owned by you (though shouldn't make a difference as long as it's readable by you)
[21:37] <nanotube> kevin__: check the ownership/permissions of .mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[21:37] <remczas> Hi I'm using compiz screnshoot plugin, but my ss sux -> http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/8748/screenshot1nf.png how to repair it?

[21:37] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: will i be able to use 3d with that?? and what exactly is open driver?
[21:38] <kevin__> nanotube, -rw-r--r--
[21:38] <dj__> hey guys are there any problems to upgrade to 9.10
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: ati wont support you, so the open driver will give you support. not sure about 3D as i hate ati and boycott their gharbage due to shoddy support. maybe someone else can contribute
[21:39] <nanotube> kevin__: and owned by you?
[21:39] <dj__> hey guys are there any problems to upgrade to 9.10
[21:39] <domedagen> dj__ Alot of people are having trouble with bugs here in the start
[21:40] <domedagen> I would stick with 9.04 for a while
[21:40] <domedagen> LSD Någon?
[21:40] <tonii> Ja tack.
[21:40] <dj__> domedagen: i had problems wiht my graphic card intel  so i removed 9.10

[21:41] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: dang.. how do i go about the open driver? seems like its my only way out
[21:41] <unixp> whats the  main different between ubuntu 9.10 an ubuntu remix for netbooks?
[21:41] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: or getting a new video card, but i have a laptop, and no idea about how doing that
[21:41] <YackityYak> how do I remove all packages related to BlueTooth?
[21:41] <domedagen> unixxp wait 20sec
[21:41] <eddym> guys are the logitech webcams pnp for ubuntu
[21:41] <dekushrub> I've been having problems with Flash in Ubuntu 9.10 and I found online that I should disable hardware acceleration but I can't even click the checkbox in the options
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: most are hard wired to the motherboard so you are stuck
[21:42] <dekushrub> @unixxp Ubuntu netbook remix is optimized for netbooks and has a different interface
[21:42] <jeffmr> YackityYak: have you tried disabling it?
[21:42] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: haha so no gaming for me with linux
[21:42] <jeffmr> YackityYak: I can't get mine to be disabled on boot
[21:42] <kevin__> nanotube, I tried to run as root also -- and start chromium browser -- stil no flash so I don't think that is the problem
[21:42] <YackityYak> jeffmr: thats not my goal
[21:42] <neo_> i think im having the same problem, im using ubuntu 9.10 on my netbbok and cant get ANY sound drivers
[21:42] <wildc4rd> evening all
[21:42] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: hence why i boycott ati
[21:42] <nanotube> kevin__: chown it to yourself, then try again. (sudo chown youruser:youruser ~/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so)
[21:42] <YackityYak> jeffmr: well its one of my goals
[21:42] <mpweitekamp> ActionParsnip: ty for your help today
[21:42] <nanotube> kevin__: if that still doesn't work...then i'm out of ideas....
[21:43] <YackityYak> jeffmr: but I have a wider range of goals
[21:43]  * duffydack plays games with open ATI
[21:43] <dekushrub> Nanotube, do you know how to make flash not suck?
[21:43] <unixp> domedagen: ?
[21:43] <Scunizi> I need a refresher on permissions.. -### ### ### does that represent (in order) user group others ??
[21:43] <jeffmr> YackityYak: Did you try ubuntu forums?  I've found a lot of stuff on there related to stuff I'm looking for
[21:43] <duffydack> just not very good ones :P
[21:43] <jeffmr> YackityYak: Even updated by the minute
[21:43] <domedagen> unixp: http://gadgetmix.com/index/what-is-the-difference-between-ubuntu-netbook-remix-9-10-and-ubuntu-9-10-desktop-standard-edition/
[21:43] <nanotube> dekushrub: yes, flashblock extension :P
[21:43] <Graviton> Scunizi: Yes
[21:43] <YackityYak> that's worth a try. what is it again? forums.ubuntu.com ?
[21:43] <Scunizi> Graviton: thanks..
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> dekushrub: if you use 64bit ubuntu you can copy the plugin to your browsers plugin folder
[21:44] <nanotube> dekushrub: or at least, it sucks a bit less. :)
[21:44] <jeffmr> YackityYak: ubuntuforums.org
[21:44] <dekushrub> ActionParsnip, what do you mean
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> dekushrub: but flash + firrefox is a really bad choice and will suck your ram like a milkshake
[21:44] <kevin__> nanotube, ok well thanks for trying -- maybe someday it will work liek a charm :)
[21:44] <dekushrub> ActionParsnip, what do you suggest? I like enjoying youtube and hulu
[21:44] <nanotube> heh
[21:45] <nanotube> kevin__: hrm, sorry we couldn't solve.
[21:45] <linuki> can you help me with ati driver. (x1600 mobile, ubuntu 9.04) is't work. i can't looking for any work tutorial. sorry for my mental english
[21:45] <ActionParsnip> dekushrub: if your ubuntu is 64bit you can use the 64bit native plugin, the flashplugin-nonfree is the 32bit plugin + nspluginwrapper
[21:45] <YackityYak> jeffmr: thanks
[21:45] <jeffmr> YackityYak: sure
[21:45] <MrKlown> can someone help me? i am having sound issues where everything sounds like it has way too much bass and i have no idea how to turn it down if that is what is wrong
[21:45] <dekushrub> ActionParsnip, can I install the 64bit native plugin from synaptic
[21:46] <domedagen> MrKlown have you checked the mixer table?
[21:46] <MrKlown> domedagen, i don't know how to sorry
[21:46] <duffydack> dekushrub, there is a program called minitube to watch tube vids without browser, and also paste the link into vlc and it will play tube vids much better than flash
[21:46] <ActionParsnip> dekushrub: no you need to download it manually download it and extract the file to your plugins folder
[21:46] <MrKlown> woah duffydack i did not know that thank you
[21:47] <dekushrub> ActionParsnip, and then I should uninstall the flash nonfree plugin obviously, ok, do you know where the plugins folder for firefox is
[21:47] <domedagen> MrKlown there should also be a equalizer in the media palyer
[21:47] <Scunizi> Graviton: and each section of 3 is numbered 4-2-1 so if you want "user" to have unlimited access the first number would be 7?
[21:47] <domedagen> media player
[21:48] <bic12> I recently did 'apt-get upgrade' and now Firefox won't display images (just a blank space where they should be). Any tips?
[21:48] <MrKlown> i'm not even using a media player domedagen.. like if i hear any sounds with firefox it is weird and it's also weird in every single media player
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> dekushrub: you should uninstall the package, the plugins folder cxan be ~/.mozilla/plugins
[21:48] <dekushrub> ActionParsnip, thanks
[21:49] <bic12> I removed libgd2-noxpm and replaced it with libgd2-xpm -- could that be related? I tried going back, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
[21:49] <bla3r33> hi
[21:49] <bla3r33> is there a tool to control network manager from the command line?
[21:49] <MrKlown> bic12, check under tools and options and go to advanced... sometimes an option for not showing iamges can be enabled
[21:50] <bic12> MrKlown; Fixed. Thx. (Not my computer, user must have changed settings.)
[21:51] <Scunizi> bic12: no images makes for a faster browsing experience :)
[21:51] <wizkid8> Does anyone know of a peice of downloadable software that would be able to bridge the interface wlan0 with eth0? I tried bridge-utils, configured it with the instructions and I still cant make a bridge work!!
[21:51] <seraku> i wonder how many people actually come in here.
[21:51] <bic12> Scunizi; If I wanted no images, I'd just use links :)
[21:51] <domedagen> MrKlown: Are you using ALSA?
[21:51] <MrKlown> domedagen, i honestly have no idea... i am new to ubuntu
[21:51] <draconis> domedagen, there is actually a mixer table?
[21:51] <ard1an> Did anyone got Tor on Ubuntu ?
[21:52] <ActionParsnip> bla3r33: you can use /etc/network/interfaces   it will supercede network manager
[21:52] <lstarnes> ard1an: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[21:52] <turbotoast> hi guys
[21:52] <MrKlown> draconis, that is what i need to find too lol
[21:52] <draconis> domedagen, there doesn't seem to be one in ALSA, and there hasn't been one in OSS for half a decade
[21:52] <ard1an> lstarnes, Karmic
[21:52] <lstarnes> ard1an: you'll have to install it manually from source
[21:52] <bla3r33> ActionParsnip: thanks. but i really want to switch between nm profiles from a shellscript
[21:52] <domedagen> It is but I don't know were it is regualr Ubuntu
[21:52] <lstarnes> ard1an: or look for a PPA containing it
[21:52] <MrKlown> i refuse to go back to windows justbecause of sound
[21:52] <domedagen> draconis: that's not what I meant
[21:53] <lstarnes> ard1an: try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> bla3r33: the file will be used between all profiles
[21:53] <ard1an> k thanks lstarnes
[21:53] <bla3r33> ActionParsnip: /etc/networks
[21:54] <wizkid8> Does anyone know of a peice of downloadable software that would be able to bridge the interface wlan0 with eth0? I tried bridge-utils, configured it with the instructions and I still cant make a bridge work!! :-(
[21:54] <Scunizi> !ics | wizkid8
[21:54] <bla3r33> ActionParsnip: /etc/network/interfaces can hold wireless profiles as well as pppoe profiles?
[21:54] <ActionParsnip> bla3r33: /etc/network/interfaces

[21:59] <Splendid> [root@webserver ~]# screen -X kill
[21:59] <Splendid> There are several suitable screens on:
[21:59] <Splendid> 	2001.pts-0.webserver	(Detached)
[21:59] <Splendid> 	30395.pts-2.webserver	(Detached)
[21:59] <Splendid> Use -S to specify a session.
[21:59] <FloodBot1> Splendid: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:59] <bla3r33> ActionParsnip: thanks again

[22:00] <lampliter_> hmm run the tool as root
[22:00] <mordof1> i've got the Documents / Videos / Music, etc folders in my Places menu.. but i already deleted them from my home folder.  Where would I find the spot that Places is referring to for those (i'm guessing symlinks?) so i can remove them?
[22:01] <Splendid> Scunizi, ok then how to I kill that one :D
[22:01] <Scunizi> Splendid: then when you're inside that screen session ctrl+a k or "exit
[22:01] <Splendid> Scunizi, nope
[22:01] <sumeetbali> does anyone know how to make cairo dock bigger?
[22:01] <fr500-work> hi
[22:01] <lampliter_> wonder why it didn't ask for sudo
[22:01] <Splendid> screen will leave that session deatached again
[22:01] <darkness> in fact, ubuntu runs on my laptop perfect! but on my pc.... strange it dont work!!!
[22:01] <Spako> hi
[22:01] <Splendid> Scunizi, and I need to kill it
[22:01] <fr500-work> im seeing this  ata3: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0) on dmesg
[22:01] <mordof1> Spako: i believe i used the lamp package
[22:02] <Scunizi> Splendid: ok.. hang on .. looking
[22:02] <fr500-work> how can i know what device is having problems?
[22:02] <trism_> Splendid: ctrl+a \ kills all windows in the attached session
[22:02] <lampliter_> Splendid:   exit the shell in hte screen environment
[22:02] <darkness> even the other linux i try, ubuntu, suse, redhat, linuxmint, all it not work, my pc freeze.....
[22:02] <Spako> your pc sucks :)
[22:02] <lampliter_> darkness: you have hardware problems
[22:02] <Scunizi> Splendid: screen -X -S {session # you want to kill} kil
[22:02] <Splendid> trism_,  don't give stupid advices
[22:03] <lampliter_> try memory check
[22:03] <Scunizi> Splendid: the last "l" on kill didn't make the paste
[22:03] <Splendid> Scunizi, probably that is the solution will try it now
[22:03] <darkness> ok lampliter_ ! what kind hardware problems possible?
[22:03] <lampliter_> ram first
[22:03] <ActionParsnip> Spako: which one?
[22:03] <lakotajames> what do I need to install google gears?
[22:03] <lampliter_> flaky disk second
[22:03] <lampliter_> powersupply 3ed
[22:03] <darkness> my motherboard is a standard  pentium 4, and also pentium 4 cpu,
[22:04] <Spako> Action: ?
[22:04] <jeffmr_> repeat the question about mbp 5,1 bcm4322 and wireless flakiness.  I got disconnected.
[22:04] <Splendid> Scunizi, thanks thats it
[22:04] <lampliter_> oh, fans.  check your cpu fans
[22:04] <Scunizi> Splendid: you can also start screen with more useful names .. like this.. screen -S irssi .. will create a screen session named irssi
[22:04] <mordof1> i've got the Documents / Videos / Music, etc folders in my Places menu.. but i already deleted them from my home folder.  Where would I find the spot that Places is referring to for those (i'm guessing symlinks?) so i can remove them?  i'm not finding any results with google ; ;
[22:04] <Splendid> Scunizi, tnx, but I don't need that future :D
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> Spako: you said "my pc sucks" I'm asking which one you mean. You didnt drect your text.
[22:05] <Spako> ActionParsnip, : Not yours
[22:05] <Scunizi> Splendid: how about splitting the terminal session running in screen so you have 2 halves? upper and lower?
[22:05] <darkness> my pc works perfect whit win xp, so i dont know what is the hardware problem, its standard pc
[22:05] <josh___> hi
[22:05] <domedagen> hi
[22:05] <mordof1> ActionParsnip: it was directed at darkness
[22:05] <lampliter_> linux stresses hw differently from xp
[22:05] <ActionParsnip> Spako: i have PCs that suck. I have PCs that are awesome
[22:05] <Spako> ActionParsnip, Which one?
[22:05] <Splendid> Scunizi, sounds interesting, but still I don't need it very much :D
[22:05] <josh___> does anyone know a vmware image of ubuntu server with desktop? i mean not only terminal
[22:06] <draconis> NT is very resilient to bad memory/damaged disks, compared to Linux, but that leads to some serious problems when things finally go "boom"
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> Spako: which do you wanna know?
[22:06] <zelig> wenas
[22:06] <edgy> Hi, after today's update I can't boot into graphics my card is ati M96 and was using fglrx, any one with same problem?
[22:06] <darkness> the strange thing is, i also cannot use terminal
[22:06] <draconis> darkness, are you even able to get far enough to "memtest"?
[22:06] <darkness> pc freezze when i try ubuntu or suse or other linux
[22:06] <Scunizi> Splendid: no problem.. there's lots of good tutorials out there.. I run irssi in screen and occationally split the terminal so I can look something up in one half while still following irc inthe other.
[22:07] <darkness> yes i can do memtest draconis
[22:07] <trism_> Splendid: the advice was not stupid, it is how you quit a screen session
[22:07] <lampliter_> darkness: use memtest off your live cd
[22:07] <trism_> Splendid: ctrl+a ? list the help, and ctrl+a \ is quit
[22:07] <darkness> shall that work lampliter_ ?
[22:07] <darkness> ;-)
[22:07] <Splendid> trism_, Please read my and Scunizi posts
[22:07] <Spako> I dont have pc
[22:07] <lampliter_> it will give you time to think :-)
[22:08] <darkness> i shall try it now! moment
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> Spako: you must, as you are on IRC
[22:08] <Splendid> trism_, that doesn't valid for screen program, and isn't much related to my problem
[22:08] <liamo1> I am using Karmic. Is it possible to add a program to the Applications menu?
[22:08] <Spako> ActionParsnip, i have MacBook pro
[22:08] <domedagen> liamo1: What do you mean?
[22:08] <erUSUL> liamo1: right click on the menu chose "edit menu"
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> Spako: thats a PC, PC == personal computer
[22:09] <London90> liam01: of course, look for the main menu button on system tab
[22:09] <domedagen> Like a new category?
[22:09] <coreyman> what are some popular mail servers?
[22:09] <lstarnes> liamo1: I think there is a menu editor under system > preferences
[22:09] <andimeier> @marks256: if you are still there: e.g. with "screen": although being primarily a multi-console extension, you can detach a session, close the tunnel and are able to login again an re-attach the screen session, the processes in the session have been active meanwhile ...
[22:09] <Spako> ActionParsnip, It is not personal, it is from firm
[22:09] <liamo1> thanks lstarnes
[22:09] <aLeSD> what I have to do at atartup to enter the grub menu ?
[22:09] <domedagen> TROLL! BEWARE OF TROLL!
[22:10] <erUSUL> !postfix | coreyman
[22:10] <darkness> in fact, i bought this pc second hands, cheap i think nice for experiment etc, but when i bought that pc, the live cd from ubuntu works!!!
[22:10] <marks256> andimeier, thanks. Yeah i'm using it now. It seems to be working great
[22:10] <ActionParsnip> Spako: you can personalise it so its personal, the opposite is a dumb terminal which is identical for all users
[22:10] <wizkid8> I cannot build a dang software network bridge!!!!!!!!! Does anyone have a peice of software I can install and it will just run!!!???:-(
[22:10] <coreyman> erUSUL does that handle POP3 and SMTP ?
[22:10] <darkness> i install windows xp , and then... it not workssss, hahaha
[22:10] <ActionParsnip> !ics | wizkid8
[22:10] <Spako> ActionParsnip, Depends
[22:10] <draconis> ActionParsnip, Spako, well that's all terminology, my brother claims fervently that his "Laptop" is not a "computer"
[22:10] <lstarnes> coreyman: postfix is just smtp, I think
[22:10] <nickjones> new ubuntu user here, just put it on an old sony vaio and now i can't read from cd's, i've looked through all the documentation but can't seem to find a solution that works
[22:10] <erUSUL> coreyman: only smtp pop3 uses a separate server. like davecot or courier
[22:10] <draconis> ActionParsnip, well we have terminals and they aren't the same for all users :P
[22:11] <darkness> possible a network a wifi wat give conflict?
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> draconis: a computer computes input to produce output
[22:11] <coreyman> erUSUL what would you reccomend.
[22:11] <septuplet> good program to edit/modify iso's?
[22:11] <wizkid8> ubottu: I have tried both with no luck, have any more?
[22:11] <erUSUL> coreyman: dunno; never deployed any
[22:11] <draconis> ActionParsnip, I was just saying, some people get caught up with terminology
[22:11] <erUSUL> coreyman: do a little research in internet or ask in #ubuntu-server
[22:11] <darkness> are there people from holland overhere?
[22:12] <darkness> lol
[22:12] <domedagen> wizkid8 have you tried google+ network bridge and ubuntu?
[22:12] <JayX> how  do i get to my gtub?
[22:12] <akrohit> how do I enable ctrl+alt+backspace to kill x session in karmic?
[22:12] <JayX> grub*
[22:12] <erUSUL> !nl | darkness
[22:12] <London90> I was wondering, has anyone else had karmic hang on boot after a recent update??
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> draconis: oh totally, the only terminology i pick up on is IDE, so look out ;)
[22:12] <ChogyDan> akrohit: ctrl+sysrq+k
[22:12] <nickjones> anyone know how to help me? i can't get cd drive to work since i switched to ubuntu
[22:12] <arkanabar> Bash question, for Jaunty:  How do I apply chown to a filename that includes spaces?
[22:12] <erUSUL> akrohit: you can not; afaik
[22:12] <darkness> ok thanks ubottu ;-)
[22:12] <erUSUL> arkanabar: eclose the filename in " "
[22:12] <JayX> erUSUL,  how do i get to the GRUB from command line?
[22:13] <arkanabar> erUSUL: thanks, I'll give that a shot.
[22:13] <erUSUL> !grub
[22:13] <ChogyDan> arkanabar: I dont know as I always use tab completion
[22:13] <eL_pSycHo> akrohit, from the keyboard options in preferences menu.
[22:13] <Scunizi> akrohit: try ctrl+alt+SysRq+k  or is it ctrl+sysrq+k .. i forget
[22:13] <JayX> !grub2
[22:13] <wizkid8>  I cannot build a dang software network bridge!!!!!!!!! Does anyone have a peice of software I can install and it will just run!!!???:-(NOTHING WORKS!!!!! Not even Fire starter!!!!!  PLEASE!!! I WILL TRY ANYTHING TO GET IT TO WORK
[22:13] <akrohit> ChogyDan: Does not work
[22:13] <erUSUL> arkanabar: or you escape the spaces with \ e.g chown whatever file\ name\ with\ spaces
[22:14] <Spako> ActionParsnip, what PERSONAL COMPUTER you have?
[22:14] <domedagen> wizkid8. I think big questions like these are for the forums
[22:14] <ChogyDan> Scunizi: akrohit: I think it is ctrl+alt+prtscn+k   or ctrl+shift+prtscn+k    its sysrq, but you gota hit some combo to get it
[22:14] <domedagen> Either ubuntu or linuxquestions
[22:15] <domedagen> I would go for the linuxquestions
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> Spako: 1 desktop, 1 fileserver/torrent server, 1 x router
[22:15] <eL_pSycHo> akrohit, you have to configure that keyboard shortcut in the keyboard preferences.
[22:15] <erUSUL> !cli > arkanabar
[22:15] <akrohit> ChogyDan: I have a laptop, it involves 4-5 simultaneous key strokes. Isnt there something simple?
[22:16] <Spako> I have only Apples
[22:16] <erUSUL> akrohit: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[22:16] <Scunizi> ChogyDan: PrtScn & SysRq are the same key
[22:16] <ChogyDan> akrohit: that's not too hard, eh,   you could to what erUSUL just posted too
[22:16] <akrohit> ChogyDan: I am running xdm.
[22:17] <erUSUL> akrohit: s/gdm/xdm/g
[22:17] <domedagen> IRC makes me sad:-(. I hate when people leave when I'm getting the solution on the web
[22:17] <javila01> Sorry to bother you guys, do any of you know how to install Galleon on Ubuntu?
[22:18] <erUSUL> !find galeon

[22:22] <KnifeySpooney> In the 'tar' man page, it says that the option '--exclude-caches' will exclude all directories with the tag CACHEDIR.tag. Does this cover all the directories in ~/.cache and the Firefox cache directory? How do I check?
[22:22] <wac_> erUSUL: I am not using firewals
[22:22] <Scunizi> Spako: you can install the LAMP package by.. sudo tasksel lamp

[22:25] <arkanabar> ok, so I just did "sudo chown [myusername] [directory] and tried to move into the directory, and "Permission Denied"
[22:25] <Scunizi> arkanabar: what directory?
[22:25]  * erUSUL guesses /var/www/
[22:26] <error404notfound> i made a dd image of my complete HD (sda), how do i mount it? it contains filesystem such as swp, ext2, ext3, ext4, and reseirfs, in partitions such as /boot, /home, /root, /var, /tmp, etc, this is what i get: http://pastebin.com/m34d1f8e1
[22:26] <joakim> arkanabar: maybe it works with just user, but afaik it should be user:group
[22:26] <arkanabar> Scunizi: ~/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/World of Warcraft
[22:26] <joakim> and the group is usually just your username
[22:26] <akrohit> arkanabar: what are the directory permissions on owbeship shown by ls -l
[22:26] <Scunizi> arkanabar: you should be able to just .. cd ~/.wine/dosdevices/c: etc.. etc.. etc..
[22:26] <joakim> arkanabar: you also have to add -R to make the changes recursive
[22:27] <KnifeySpooney> What is a file tag in Ubuntu? Specifically, a cachedir tag?
[22:27] <erUSUL> error404notfound: sudo losetup imagefile.img && sudo partx /dev/loop0

[22:30] <akrohit> arkanabar: no needed
[22:30] <themajesticmoose> hey guys i have a big problem , when i boot ubuntu ( dual boot system with vista ) i get this error message , [      1.187388] Kernel panic - not syncing :VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (8,1). Please help
[22:30] <joakim> KnifeySpooney: kill -9 pid
[22:30] <JayX> DarkKnight,  it came up empty
[22:30] <JayX> DarkKnight,  ubuntu 9.10
[22:30] <akrohit> arkanabar: but do it, i don't know the permissions of inner files in that directory
[22:31] <brodeurpc> tried sudo it works for the terminal but what you use gedit it gives you no option to log on to root
[22:31] <DarkKnight> JayX: do you have grub?
[22:31] <erUSUL> error404notfound: :| is a compressed image maybe ?
[22:31] <akrohit> arkanabar: use -R
[22:31] <error404notfound> erUSUL, nope,  plain dd image
[22:31] <joakim> themajesticmoose: probably a problem with /etc/fstab there, its trying to mount / on the wrong partition
[22:31] <stevensj> JayX: in 9.10, try /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[22:31] <JayX> DarkKnight,  yea it says su on start uyo 1.93
[22:31] <JayX> start up
[22:31] <erUSUL> error404notfound: then i dunno
[22:31] <themajesticmoose> joakim , is there a fix ?
[22:31] <t0rc> is there an easy way to change my system name?
[22:32] <DarkKnight> JayX: 1.93? grub is now 2.5, what version do you have?
[22:32] <brodeurpc> there is another text editor in the terminal but i forgot what it was
[22:32] <erUSUL> !hostname
[22:32] <error404notfound> erUSUL, i think i need losetup -f img.file
[22:32] <Scunizi> stevensj: JayX someone said the other day that /boot/grub/grub.cfg is now dynamic and rebuilt from /etc/<maybe grub>/<file>
[22:32] <JayX> DarkKnight,  dunno, but "/boot/grub/grub.cfg" got me to it
[22:33] <JayX> DarKknight just installled 9.10 from dvd
[22:33] <JayX> ununtu 9.1
[22:33] <KnifeySpooney> joakim: Thanks.
[22:33] <Scunizi> brodeurpc: nano, gedit, vim
[22:33] <brodeurpc> yes nano thats it thank you
[22:33] <DarkKnight> JayX: hmm, yeah, it is maybe the error
[22:33] <JayX> Scunizi,  so dont play with "/boot/grub/grub.cfg" ??
[22:33] <joakim> themajesticmoose: boot on a live cd, check where / is by mounting the different partitions, and check what /etc/fstab says
[22:33] <Scunizi> JayX: correct.. find the other location
[22:33] <arkanabar> akrohit:  ok, did that.  tried to run WoW.exe from pcmanfm, "Access denied"
[22:34] <JayX> Scunizi,  whats the other location ? of the Grub darkknight
[22:34] <DarkKnight> I have an error with PulseAudio (9.04) - sound "stucks" after a few seconds of playing - i have ntb, in 9.10 it works perfect, but 9.10 has a lot of bugs, so i dont want it
[22:34] <themajesticmoose> joakim , i installed linux using wubi though, wont that change my situations seeing as my disk isnt actually partitioned
[22:34] <Scunizi> JayX: /etc/grub I think.. I don't have a 9.10 system here to verify
[22:34] <gslauen> hey all
[22:34] <akrohit> arkanabar: Check the permission for that file
[22:34] <^_Pepe_^> join
[22:34] <Jordan_U> !grub2 | JayX
[22:35] <joakim> themajesticmoose: I have no experience as to how wubi works actually.. sorry
[22:35] <themajesticmoose> right ok
[22:35] <rdevoe> any help with making a partitioned ext3 hdd show up in crunchbang linx
[22:35] <JayX> Jordan_U,  so u got Grub2 ?? where do i find it
[22:35] <themajesticmoose> thanks anyways
[22:35] <alessandro> !it
[22:35] <JayX> !man
[22:36] <DarkKnight> ̈́s
[22:36] <dgtl> since upgrading ubuntu to 9.10, my customized sysv runlevel scripts (i usually let truecrypt encrypt a partition while system startup (therefore it prompts for an password while booting 'before' gdm starts)) are not working at all anymore
[22:36] <DarkKnight> !pulseaudio
[22:36] <arkanabar> akrohit: "ls:  cannot access Wow.exe:  No such file or directory"
[22:36] <Jordan_U> JayX: Where do you find what?
[22:36] <gslauen> I recently have had to switch to a cable box and have a serial port ir blaster and would like to have it switch channels so I can use mythbuntu. Any ideas on where to start would be greatly apriceated
[22:36] <brodeurpc> whats an easy way to share a printer on Ubuntu to a Windows Server 2003?
[22:36] <joakim> themajesticmoose: try asking here again, stating at the same time that you installed it with wubi. Maybe a forum post on ubuntuforums.org can help too, since it seems to be a pretty specific problem.
[22:36] <t0rc> erUSUL, thanks for hostname info
[22:36] <dgtl> i cannot find any good explanation on how to migrate the old systemv startup scripts to upstart
[22:36] <Scunizi> JayX: look at the link.. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 .. it says *don't* edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[22:36] <JayX> Jordan_U,  my Grub2, i want to edit it (the time  i have Win XP and ubuntu 9.1) i want it to wait 2 minutes n then select highlisghted OS
[22:37] <dgtl> why is ubuntu doing such a major upgrade without announcing anything before the upgrade process?
[22:37] <d0brii> brodeurpc, : reinstall windows 21003
[22:37] <d0brii> ?
[22:37] <comfnumb> Is it possible to install Mac OS via a Linux mounted image file? I have no access dvd burning and dont want buy a big flash drive...
[22:37] <akrohit> arkanabar: if ls doesn't report the file how do u know its there??
[22:37] <dgtl> that just..sucks
[22:37] <jrib> dgtl: you shouldn't have to do anything I think
[22:37] <Jordan_U> JayX: Then edit /etc/default/grub and change the timeout
[22:37] <JayX> Scunizi,  so how do I change the waiting time to boot an OS ?
[22:37] <Scunizi> JayX: read the link
[22:37] <Jordan_U> JayX: Then run "sudo update-grub"
[22:37] <arkanabar> akrohit: it's still in pcmanfm
[22:37] <dgtl> jrib, if so, my old scripts would do
[22:37] <themajesticmoose> Hey, i got this error message when booting ubuntu , (dual boot with vista ) i installed ubuntu using wubi [      1.187388] Kernel panic - not syncing :VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (8,1). Please help
[22:37] <dgtl> jrib, in fact they are not
[22:38] <jrib> dgtl: I haven't upgraded to upstart, but it is supposed to run the old scripts without issue.  Maybe the upstart channel can help you better though
[22:38] <gslauen>  I recently have had to switch to a cable box and have a serial port ir blaster and would like to have it switch channels so I can use mythbuntu. Any ideas on where to start would be greatly apriceated anyone?
[22:38] <rdevoe> is there a gui or something that will help with showing a hdd that is mounted and partitioned? i just want the space for files
[22:38] <Jordan_U> dgtl: Have you installed sysv compatability? It's no longer installed by default with 9.10 since no packages depend on it anymore
[22:38] <waxhead_> does anyone have problems with the iwlagn on karmic?
[22:38] <JayX> Jordan_U, Scunizi  thanks, got it LD
[22:39] <brodeurpc> i just installed it on a new server which is running my invoice program i log into it through my Ubuntu computer to do my invoicing so i need to share the printer that is attatched to my ubuntu computer so i can print the invoices
[22:39] <waxhead_> I've had to go back to a laptop with G only as the wireless card on the other laptop fails constantly
[22:39] <dgtl> Jordan_U, no, not yet, do you know the name of the package i need to install for that?
[22:39] <arkanabar> right, that means I have to blow my .wine directory and reinstall.
[22:39] <Scunizi> rdevoe: gparted will show you your drives and allow you to partition/format them if needed..
[22:39] <arkanabar> 20GB download, here I come.
[22:40] <rdevoe> i did that with gparted where can i find it after that?
[22:40] <dgtl> Jordan_U, upstart-compat-sysv?
[22:40] <dgtl> looks like
[22:40] <akrohit> arkanabar: ok. Do one thing. first do a 'chown <username>:<groupname> <dirname> -R'
[22:40] <JayX> Jordan_U, how comes I dont see my Windows Xp under "sudo gedit  /etc/default/grub " ??
[22:40] <akrohit> arkanabar: the do 'chmod u+rwx <dirname> -R'
[22:40] <akrohit> arkanabar: then try
[22:40] <Spako> Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) - O why, why why :_(
[22:40] <Jordan_U> JayX: That file controlls how the entries are automatically generated, it's like the "comments" in the old menu.lst
[22:41] <Spako> what is pass for root?
[22:41] <chris99> Anyone know of a way to send archive log files to another partition. My problem is that every night my system (Mythbuntu) will save the log files, but the default partition is only 12 gig and is filling up. Thanks
[22:41] <Flare183> !root | Spako
[22:41] <JayX> Jordan_U,  O_0..... ah n/m i'll just leave it, i',m still s noob to Ubuntu
[22:41] <hellyes> will VirtualBox OSE allow me to run Windows XP and Ubuntu simultaneously?
[22:41] <Flare183> hellyes: Yes
[22:42] <Spako> Tnx
[22:42] <Scunizi> Spako: use sudo and your password
[22:42] <Flare183> hellyes: btw please change your nick.
[22:42] <lstarnes> hellyes: it will let you run windows xp as an application under ubuntu
[22:42] <hellyes> ?
[22:42] <warriorforgod> chris99: It would be pretty quick and painless to write a bash script to move the files and run it nightly in a cronjob.
[22:42] <hellyes> change my nick?
[22:42] <lstarnes> hellyes: or, if it is installed in windows, it will let you run ubuntu as a windows application
[22:42] <Blackhayate> Hola.
[22:42] <joakim> hellyes: if you dont mind the proprietary shit, go with the non-free virtualbox version from virtualbox.org, its got better usb support, rdp and things like that
[22:42] <meinmartini_> I'm curious about kubuntu vs. ubuntu. I know there are differences visually. Is that about it between the two, or is there more to it than that?
[22:42] <rdevoe> scunizi  : i used gparted and set up the disc with ext3 but i cant find it anywhere in the files
[22:43] <arand> JayX: the scripts which adds the windows entry to the boot menu are in fact located in /etc/grub.d/
[22:43] <hellyes> joakim, lstarnes and Flare183: thank you
[22:43] <Scunizi> rdevoe: what's the sd(?) reference for it?
[22:43] <Flare183> hellyes: No problem
[22:43] <rdevoe> it is sdb
[22:43] <rdevoe> with partition sdb1
[22:43] <arand> JayX: but what is it you want to do?
[22:43] <detrix> Hi everyone.  I am trying to use Unison, the sync program.  I want to sync my wife's netbook: using 9.10remix her home dir on my desktop: using 9.04.  I have openssh installed, unison connect, asks for a password and then immediately loses the connection.  Any ideas why?
[22:43] <Flare183> !language | joakim
[22:43] <Scunizi> rdevoe: sdb(what number)
[22:43] <hellyes> joakim: does that mean if I am working in ubuntu, I will be able to switch over so I can use Photoshop?
[22:43] <alessandro> !it
[22:43] <chris99> Warriorforgod that would do it. just trying to be lazy :), but I think you have a good ideal there. thanks don't know why I didn't think of it
[22:44] <Flare183> detrix: Firewall?
[22:44] <Scunizi> rdevoe: if you don't know then you can sudo fdisk -l to list all partitions and drives
[22:44] <rdevoe> scunizi: it is partition sdb1
[22:44] <JayX> arand,  i would like to chane the timeout and the visable/readable text from the bootloader
[22:44] <HiddenShadow> Im having ALOT of wifi problems, my wifi keeps acting like is disconnected - but it's not.
[22:44] <arkanabar> akrohit: was able to start it, killed it, and now (again) permission denied.
[22:45] <alain_> crepinux
[22:45] <detrix> Flare183: no
[22:45] <HiddenShadow> im running 9.10 on a eee 1005ha if it makes a difference
[22:45] <rdevoe> scunizi: as listed in gparted
[22:45] <sassyn> Hi
[22:45] <sassyn> How can i write a udev rule to run only once
[22:45] <david_brent> hi people, i just installed 9.10, and its been a while since i was on ubuntu, is there a way to get the volume control out of the notification area and just get the solo applet, i've installed the pulseaudio vol. control applet but it doesnt show in the list when i try to add an applet to the panel and i dont know how to get this one out of the notification area
[22:45] <Scunizi> rdevoe: ok.. first  .. sudo mkdir /media/sdb1 .. then .. sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 .. this should mount the drive.. if your system shows mounted drives on the desktop it should appear
[22:45] <rdevoe> scunizi : gparted shows it as being mounted
[22:45] <JayX> arand ubuntu 9.10 my boot loader has 5 options, i want to limit them down, and allow only 3  Ubuntu, Ubuntu recovery and WIndows
[22:46] <rdevoe> scunizi: working>>>>one sec
[22:46] <alain_> oui ?
[22:46] <hellyes> Flare183: I'm not sure why you want me to change my nick, but I will.  Can you tell me how to do that in xchat?
[22:46] <sassyn> How can i write a udev rule to run only once
[22:46] <sassyn> please soneone?
[22:46] <JayX> hellyess
[22:46] <david_brent> jayx: youll need to comment out the memtes options in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:46] <akrohit> arkanabar: I can't tell what's the problem. The application might be doing something
[22:46] <alain_> Utilise plutot Unmount
[22:46] <HiddenShadow> Is there any place to get wireless drivers for my eee 1005ha? The wireless is Atheros.
[22:46] <arkanabar> hellyes: /nick NewNickName
[22:46] <Jordan_U> JayX: Uninstall your old kernels and they won't show up in the grub menu
[22:46] <Flare183> hellyes: Your nick is not family friendly.
[22:46] <Scunizi> hellyes: /nick <new nick>
[22:47] <JayX> hellyes  "/nick <newnickname>
[22:47] <coz_> JayX, I assume this is grub 2?
[22:47] <david_brent> jayx: sorry dont listen to me, its grub 2
[22:47] <arand> JayX: ok so "sudo gedit /etc/default/grub" there you will se a GRUB_TIMEOUT="10" which you can edit to set the time.
[22:47] <arkanabar> exit
[22:48] <dgtl> Jordan_U, upstart obviously conflicts with upstart-compat-sysv and cannot be installed
[22:48] <hellyes> Flare: it's not working, I will just rejoin under another nick
[22:48] <HiddenShadow> Is there any place to get updated wireless drivers for atheros wireless cards?
[22:48] <brodeurpc> how do you share a printer to a Windows computer?
[22:48] <rdevoe> scunizi: did the mount nothing showing im using crunchbang
[22:48] <Flare183> !samba | brodeurpc
[22:48] <JayX> david_brent, Jordan_U arand  BRB will restart n see what changed I made to GRUB
[22:49] <brodeurpc> thank you
[22:49] <Scunizi> rdevoe: oh.. ok.. in terminal .. cd /media/sdb1 .. then ls to list any files that might be ther.
[22:49] <Scunizi> *there
[22:49] <david_brent> does anybody know how to get out the volume control applet out of the notification area
[22:49] <david_brent> ?
[22:49] <joakim> Flare183: Why are you directing that language thing to me? How else am i gonna reply to the guy without writing his nick?
[22:49] <Lazure> i has a question. ubuntu has a program that mimics MSN messenger, called aMSN, and it even goes as far as to actually support the WEBCAM feature and VIDEO CALL features, which is very nice. (tho, i wish it was in GTK so it'd theme..). anyways, my question is, is there something like that for yahoo, which also supports webcam?
[22:49] <FMsoundmaster45> any one able to help me with ndiswrapper here?
[22:49] <detrix> david_brent: you should be able to right click on it and select remvoe
[22:50] <david_brent> detrix: i cant
[22:50] <Scunizi> david_brent: right mouse click .. uncheck Lock to Panel.. right mouse click "Move" and drag it
[22:50] <coz_> hey guys...  has anyone found a way to get the boot sequence going a bit faster?
[22:50] <david_brent> detrix: it just gives preferences and mute, not even move
[22:50] <DareDevil0> why when i try to install jre .bin downloaded from sun i obtain following error: tail: cannot open `+477' for reading: No such file or directory
[22:50] <Jordan_U> FMsoundmaster45: What chipset?
[22:50] <rdevoe> scunizi: no such file or directory
[22:51] <Jordan_U> DareDevil0: Why aren't you installing java from the repositories?
[22:51] <Scunizi> rdevoe: try sudo mount -a
[22:51] <Rascal999>  System > Preferences > Network Proxy doesn't work, do i need to restart or something?
[22:51] <FMsoundmaster45> Jordan_U: on the network card?
[22:51] <DareDevil0> Jordan_U, because i need an specific version
[22:51] <david_brent> Scunizi: i dont want to meve the whole notification area, jsut get out the volume applet seperately, and i cant seem to do that
[22:51] <david_brent> :S
[22:51] <ncfi1013> if i have an optical drive that is capable of burning blu-rays does that mean that an 8gib dual layer dvdrdl can also be a blu-ray recordable disc?
[22:51] <Scunizi> rdevoe: also type only .. mount .. and it will list the partitions and where they are located.
[22:51] <rdevoe> no result
[22:51] <Jordan_U> FMsoundmaster45: Yes
[22:52] <_cb> On Nautilus I look at a drive and it tells me it has used 11 gig and there are 4 left. When I use properties on the folders they only add up to 3?
[22:52] <david_brent> ive installed the applet but it wont show in the add applet list
[22:52] <Scunizi> rdevoe: I'll send you a link from ubottu.. I"m stuck at this point..
[22:52] <Scunizi> !mount | rdevoe
[22:52] <Thundercross> *WB(Travis)WB* - <+Travis> Wait... Thundercross actually chats? You mean he isn't just a bot that says something clever whenever Zips joins the chat?
[22:52] <detrix> david_brent: that is a small reason why I went back to 9.04.  someone removed options that I like to change
[22:52] <_FadeOut> how do i tell if im running an i386 or amd64 system?
[22:53] <rdevoe> scunizi: missed the mount ran mount got data
[22:53] <Jordan_U> _cb: It's likely that there are files which your user does not have permission to read, and thus cannot count the space they are using
[22:53] <FMsoundmaster45> Jordan_U: Belkin F5D8010 Pre-N WiFi card, Airgo-based
[22:53] <jueves> how do i go to freenode?
[22:53] <Scunizi> rdevoe: working now?
[22:53] <david_brent> detrix:yeah its a drag, i just wanted to try 9.10 :S think ill go abck to arch :D
[22:53] <DareDevil0> why when i try to install jre .bin downloaded from sun i obtain following error: tail: cannot open `+477' for reading: No such file or directory
[22:53] <rdevoe> scunizi:/dev/sdb1 on /media/sdb1 type ext3 (rw)
[22:53] <Flare183> _FadeOut: run this in the terminal: uname -a
[22:53] <joakim> jueves: you ARE on freenode :)
[22:53] <HiddenShadow> haha
[22:53]  * Flare183 laughs
[22:53] <_FadeOut> Flare183: i686?
[22:54] <rdevoe> scunizi:im guessing its there somewhere but im too dunb to find it
[22:54] <FMsoundmaster45> Jordan_U: on ubuntu 9.10 amd64
[22:54] <_cb> Jordan_U what is the best way to clean up a drive? ie identify biggest folders to look into them?
[22:54] <Flare183> _FadeOut: Yup that's i386 for you
[22:54] <_FadeOut> Flare183: thanks!
[22:54] <Scunizi> rdevoe: try copying something there.. cp ~/Desktop/<file> /media/sdb1 ... then ls /media/sdb1 and see if anything shows up
[22:54] <HiddenShadow> Where can I get updated wireless drivers?
[22:54] <ncfi1013> if i have an optical drive that is capable of burning blu-rays does that mean that an 8gib dual layer dvdrdl can also be a blu-ray recordable disc?
[22:55] <navVet> Flare183: when I have a virtual win xp machine on ubuntu, does that mean that I can somehow swith between the two so I can use Photoshop at will?
[22:55] <Flare183> navVet: Yup
[22:55] <HiddenShadow> why can nobody help me with drivers :(
[22:55] <JayX> Jordan_U, Scunizi arand :S
[22:55] <Jordan_U> _cb: Applications > Accessories > Disk Usage Analyzer
[22:55] <rdevoe> scunizi: i messed something with that command got back no such file
[22:55] <Scunizi> navVet: yes.. you probably know about Gimp.. but do you know about GimpShop?  they rearrange teh menus to be more Photoshop friendly
[22:56] <_cb> Jordan_U thanks a Ton! I was looking under system ;(
[22:56] <arand> JayX: huh?
[22:56] <ncfi1013> hiddenshadow what do u want to know about drivers?
[22:56] <Jordan_U> _cb: np :)
[22:56] <Scunizi> rdevoe: it assumes that you have a file on the Desktop and you list it in the line.. <file> is just a reference for what you need to type in
[22:56] <HiddenShadow> how can I get newer/updated drivers?
[22:56] <detrix> david_brent: on a second thought, I believe the notification area is not supposed to allow you to remove things.  opps.  I am not sure how to keep pulse audio from using the notification area.
[22:56] <navVet> Scunizi: I've never heard of gimpShop.......that sopunds cool!  Are any of the tools updated for better action? i.e. - the dodge & burn tools in Gimp that are very bad compared to actual Photoshop's...
[22:57] <Jordan_U> HiddenShadow: For what hardware?
[22:57] <Scunizi> navVet: no idea..
[22:57] <rdevoe> the drive is blank right now im missing something
[22:57] <HiddenShadow> i used to be able to get them from a backport from 9.04 but i cant find them..
[22:57] <JayX> arand, didnt get any luck changing "GRUB_TIMEOUT=10"  to "GRUB_TIMEOUT=100"  :( system still selects first option in 10 seconds
[22:57] <crlsgms> hi everyone, i got a ubuntu instalation that i cant manage to get up. Yesterday iv tryed to install 9.10 desktop with no success, so iv downloaded the alternate and installed it
[22:57] <HiddenShadow> its an atheros, you want the specific model?
[22:57] <Scunizi> rdevoe: then there aren't any files there.. copy something to it
[22:57] <crlsgms> but it dont boot, freezes after the ubuntu logo displays
[22:57] <navVet> Scunizi: I will definitley be checking that out
[22:57] <Jordan_U> JayX: You need to run "sudo update-grub" aftwerwards
[22:57] <ncfi1013> hiddenshadow do u have a hardware drivers option in yr kmenu?
[22:57] <JayX> Jordan_U,  Urgh! idioot me :P
[22:57] <rdevoe> im a big cutnpaste fan noob ? how?
[22:58] <arand> JayX: yea, thing is you need to run "sudo update-grub" to propagate them into the grub config file"
[22:58] <akrohit> crlsgms: does the installation go fine?
[22:58] <_cb> Ha Ha 10 GIg in the trash folder. Ubuntu, once you know what to do, rocks.
[22:58] <Scunizi> rdevoe: does crunchbang have a file manager like nautilus?
[22:58] <Jordan_U> HiddenShadow: Have you tried the linux-backports package?
[22:58] <rdevoe> checking
[22:58] <crlsgms> hy Scunizi ! yesterday you told me to get the alternate ubuntu, iv downloaded and just installed, the installation went fine but it dont load the system
[22:58] <Scunizi> rdevoe: use whatever you have to do it.
[22:58] <JayX> Jordan_U, arand  lol ok BRB restart again :P
[22:58] <crlsgms> akrohit, yes
[22:58]  * arand is too slow
[22:58] <HiddenShadow> jordan_u: let me try
[22:59] <akrohit> crlsgms: are you able to boot into rescue mode?
[22:59] <Scunizi> crlsgms: probably a video card issue.. unless there are other errors
[22:59] <HiddenShadow> and my wifi is working now, but it randomly stops working, and if the hiccup lasts long enough, it'll disconnect
[22:59] <rdevoe> scunizi: pcman file manager
[22:59] <Scunizi> rdevoe: ok.. try with that.. why'd you go with crunchbang?
[22:59] <HiddenShadow> ncfi1013: whats kmenu?
[22:59] <Jordan_U> HiddenShadow: Looks like they have even split out the wireless modules specifically in 9.10 ( linux-backports-modules-wireless-karmic-generic )
[22:59] <crlsgms> hm.. forgot the rescue mode. now booting it lets see
[23:00] <rdevoe> it looked like it would run quick on older mb
[23:00] <FMsoundmaster45> Jordan_U: Belkin F5D8010 Pre-N WiFi card, Airgo-based, on ubuntu 9.10 amd64, i have installed ndiswrapper utils/common/gtk and the driver found here: http://77.91.202.10/~alpoimco/Satanas/belkin_pre-n.tar.gz
[23:00] <Scunizi> rdevoe: yep.. maybe xubuntu too.
[23:00] <_cb> Anyone knows of Ubuntu programming tools like Visual Basic or Delphi (Found Lazarus but looking for others)
[23:00] <trism_> david_brent: I figured it out, System/Preferences/Startup Applications, uncheck the Volume Control then log out and in

[23:01] <crlsgms> starting apparmor profiles
[23:01] <david_brent> trism_: now i got to figure out how to get in on the panel, or just go with awn :)
[23:01] <HiddenShadow> ncfi1013 - ubuntu (gnome)
[23:01] <crlsgms> just freezed
[23:01] <HiddenShadow> jordan: This empty package allows people to keep their backported wireless modules
[23:01] <ebm250206> i want to know, which is the best, gnome, kde or xfce? i'm new in linux
[23:01] <HiddenShadow> up-to-date when upgrading their Linux kernel.
[23:01] <rdevoe> scunizi: under pcman i cant find the drive so i can copy to it
[23:01] <akrohit> crlsgms: in rescue mode?
[23:01] <HiddenShadow> jordan: i saw it before but since it said empty, it seemed useless
[23:01] <crlsgms> ebm250206, thers no such think as best, is the best for you that counts
[23:01] <crlsgms> akrohit, yes, in rescue mode
[23:02] <mpoz2> Is it safe to uninstall python2.4 in Ubuntu Karmic?
[23:02] <ncfi1013> hiddneshadow kmenu is a blue symbol with a white letter k in it usually in the lower right corner of the system tray
[23:02] <Scunizi> rdevoe: you may have to edit your fstab to include the drive .. then reboot .. not sure if a logout login would accomplish the same thing
[23:02] <crlsgms> i got this line, and in its end a blinking cursor
[23:02] <_cb> Flare183 Gambas looks interesting. Do you know of any that has C, C++ or Java?
[23:02] <ncfi1013> sorry lower left corner hiddenshadow
[23:02] <HiddenShadow> ncfi1013: thats KDE isn't it, Im on gnome
[23:02] <Flare183> _cb: Well I use Eclipse for C,C++, and Java so yeah
[23:03] <ncfi1013> yeah it similar right/
[23:03] <Jordan_U> HiddenShadow: Yes, it installs the latest linux-backports-modules-wireless-<kernel version>
[23:03] <akrohit> crlsgms: use grub to get a shell by passing 'init=/bin/bash' to the kernel, try disabling the apparmor service and retry
[23:03] <crlsgms> hm.. ill do that
[23:03] <Flare183> !code | _cb
[23:03] <meinmartini_> I know this is a support channel, but can anybody recommend a good Dock application for Ubuntu?

[23:04] <sidewalk> how do i setup swedish keyboard for X, permanently in 9.10 ?
[23:04] <HiddenShadow> jordan: oh ok im installing it now
[23:04] <_cb> Flare183 Thanks. Will check Eclipse (I am an Ubuntu newbie with background on the Borland products for windows) thanks
[23:04] <rdevoe> scunizi : i might go ahead and find a distro with a more robust gui. i am running a nettbook with 9.04 jaunty
[23:04] <crlsgms> akrohit, how do i write this on grub?
[23:04] <HiddenShadow> ncfi: top left
[23:04] <JayX> Jordan_U, arand this is what my "sudo gedit /etc/defult/grub " look slike >> http://pastebin.com/d37ab888c
[23:04] <meinmartini_> Scunizi: Many thanks :)
[23:04] <Flare183> _cb: Ahh Ok, I'm glad to help.
[23:04] <HiddenShadow> ncfi: kmenu, is KDE, not gnome ;)
[23:04] <Scunizi> rdevoe: you might be able to sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[23:04] <ncfi1013> then look there for yr hardware drivers manager hiddenshadow
[23:04] <sidewalk> there is no xorg.conf and changing in System -> Settings -> Keyboard, is not permanent
[23:04] <sidewalk> anyone?
[23:05] <crlsgms> oh iv read now, lets see
[23:05] <akrohit> crlsgms: just beside 'quiet [ux]plash'
[23:05] <ebm250206> how install messenger live?
[23:05] <pc400> Can anyone give me a pointer for getting a verizon wireless cellular card working in linux?  the card is a UMW190
[23:05] <akrohit> crlsgms: use e to edit the grub entry on bootup
[23:05] <JayX> this is what my "sudo gedit /etc/defult/grub " look slike >> http://pastebin.com/d37ab888c Scunizi
[23:05] <HiddenShadow> ebm: ubuntu has empathy, can can use multiple messaging services on it

[23:06] <sidewalk> i have an asus eee box
[23:06] <Jordan_U> pc400: Does it show up in network-manager?
[23:06] <arand> JayX: I think you might need to keep the quotes enclosing the "100"
[23:06] <pc400> Jordan_U - I'll go give it a try and get back to you.
[23:06] <Jordan_U> sidewalk: System > Preferences > Keyboard
[23:06] <crlsgms> akrohit, well, iv putted on the end of the line didnt worked, ill put beside quiet
[23:06] <Lazure> are there any Yahoo type messengers on linux that support -webcam-?
[23:07] <akrohit> crlsgms: it should
[23:07] <HiddenShadow> ncfi: 'hardware drivers' is useless (the driver manager) it only shows proprietary drivers...
[23:07] <JayX> arand,   so GRUB_TIMEOUT=100 is wrong it should be   GRUB_TIMEOUT="100"   ?
[23:07] <Lazure> preferably GTK ones that will match the look and feel of my linux theme?
[23:07] <sidewalk> Jordan_U: after poweroff, it goes back to english
[23:07] <sidewalk> USA english
[23:07] <arand> JayX: I think so
[23:07] <chuy_max> !encryption
[23:07] <sidewalk> and i have to set it up manually after every poweroff
[23:07] <JayX> arand,  well the defualt value there was a 10 witour qoutes :S
[23:07] <JayX> wihtout
[23:07] <JayX> withour
[23:07] <rdevoe> scunizi: its only another 408 mb
[23:07] <Jordan_U> JayX: Comment out GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET
[23:07] <JayX> without***
[23:07] <arand> JayX: since I know it says "10" (with quotes) per default.
[23:08] <Scunizi> rdevoe: :)
[23:08] <brodeurpc> is there any way to share a printer to a Windows computer using a GUI and not the terminal i hate typing crap
[23:08] <rdevoe> scunizi: downloading now
[23:08] <trism_> Well, that was from a recent update, originally it just said 10 without quotes, I don't think it really matters either way
[23:08] <Jordan_U> sidewalk: You might ask in the sweedish channel
[23:08] <Scunizi> brodeurpc: http://localhost:631
[23:08] <rdevoe_> good i logged in on my nettbook so ican stay online
[23:08] <JayX> Jordan_U,  to comment out u place a hash  # infront right
[23:08] <crlsgms> hm.. beside quiet it gave me the boot screen, and in the end of the line freezed on the same place. should i edit grub on the recovery mode or normal mode?
[23:08] <Jordan_U> JayX: Yes
[23:09] <arand> JayX: hmm, for me it was with... Hmm, yea, if the problem is also that you don't see nothing at boot atm follow Jordan_U s suggestion

[23:10] <wad> Is there any way to disable a laptop's touchpad when a USB mouse is plugged in?
[23:10] <Scunizi> rdevoe_: reboot.. yes.. then you should be able to change "sessions" on the password screen someplace

[23:24] <songer> I'm doing this tutorial http://www.pendrivelinux.com/booting-linux-from-usb-zip-on-older-systems/
[23:24] <rdevoe_> can anyone tell me the cli cmmds to download and install ubuntu from terminal?
[23:24] <Jordan_U> JayX: Can you pastebin your current /etc/default/grub ?
[23:24] <hcook> jrib: http://www.pastebin.ca/1667240
[23:25] <arand> JayX: Strange, this is what I have, and I get 5sec alright: http://pastebin.com/m6ea5d20a
[23:25] <brodeurpc> never mind then i will just use good old crappy Windows to share my printer
[23:25] <balleyne> jrib: same error as here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/87712
[23:25] <Jordan_U> rdevoe_: Where are you trying to isntall Ubuntu to?
[23:25] <JayX> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/d4dc37183
[23:25] <jrib> balleyne: I mean to put it in your question to the channel
[23:26] <rdevoe_> replacing existing crunchbang install
[23:26] <ncfi1013> gasull no it doesnt matter cuz u r simply deleting those files permanently. "remove" means remove from file system; "purge" means delete from harddisk/operating system.
[23:26] <sidewalk> i only get US keyboard layout as default after reboot, it doesnt stick after reboot if i change, how can i solve this?
[23:26] <jrib> hcook: is this ubuntu?
[23:26] <Jordan_U> JayX: You didn't comment out GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET
[23:26] <hcook> jrib: no, it's on a freebsd server
[23:26] <gasull> ncfi1013: the aptitude command tries to remove ubuntu-desktop, gnome-panel and some others
[23:26] <hcook> jrib: isn't sed pretty standard?
[23:26] <jrib> hcook: ask on a bsd channel, it's probably not gnu sed
[23:27] <jrib> hcook: I hate using sed on macs
[23:27] <arand> Jordan_U: he did
[23:27] <hcook> interesting
[23:27] <nerdy_kid> anyone know how to spin down cdrom via terminal?
[23:27] <erUSUL> hcook: or in #sed ;)
[23:27] <JayX> Jordan_U,  I did! i jus paste bin what I currently have! I restarted over 12 times already playing with the Grub
[23:27] <songer> who've has used usb-zip to install o.s?
[23:27] <gasull> ncfi1013: sudo aptitude remove gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio libcanberra-pulse libpulse-browse0 libpulse-mainloop-glib0 pulseaudio pulseaudio-esound-compat pulseaudio-module-bluetooth pulseaudio-module-gconf pulseaudio-module-udev pulseaudio-module-x11 pulseaudio-utils
[23:27] <jrib> hcook: by the way, you should escape the '.' in the 10.10.10.10 as it also matches things like 10x10x10x10
[23:28] <arand> JayX: could you pastebin the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file as well, just to see if the things propagated alright?
[23:28] <erUSUL> hcook: jrib -i is a gnu only extension you will have to use a tmp file
[23:28] <Jordan_U> JayX: The link you just gave me, http://pastebin.com/d4dc37183 , shows clearly uncommented "GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true"
[23:28] <arand> Jordan_U: that is not the option that effects this!
[23:28] <hcook> jrib: yeah, actually i started with 's/\s10\.10\.10\.10\s/\s192\.168\.1\.1\s/g' and kept simplifying it to see if it would work....
[23:28] <ncfi1013> all of them EXCEPT "libpulse" and "reboot"
[23:28] <Lownin> The latest version of rtorrent in the repo for ubuntu server 8.04 appears to be rtorrent 0.8.0.  I'd like to install the latest stable release (0.8.4). I don't want to compile from source because I want to make sure apt-get is aware of all installed packages and dependencies.  What should I do?
[23:29] <hcook> erUSUL: aha! thank you!
[23:29] <arand> Jordan_U: it's the GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT option which is uncommented correctly
[23:29] <JayX> arand,  http://pastebin.com/d5291497c grub.cfg
[23:29] <nerdy_kid> anyone know how to spin down cdrom via terminal?
[23:29] <rgr> how might I use a mic on machine 1 to output on machine 2?
[23:29] <jrib> erUSUL: wikipedia claims bsd sed later added -i but meh
[23:30] <hcook> jrib: that could be...this server is ancient
[23:30] <jrib> hcook: ah
[23:30] <gasull> anybody can help me with my sound problem?
[23:30] <daveycakes> hi there i have a dell mini 10, just installed 9.10. the wireless didnt install! please would somebody help me sort the problem?
[23:31] <hcook> but anyhow temp files aren't much of a drawback in my situation, so i'll just rework it without using -i. thanks to both of you for your help
[23:31] <arand> Jordan_U: commented i meant, Line 5 in the pastebin
[23:31] <arand> JayX: have you run "sudo update-grub" ;)
[23:31] <rgr> gasull: be more specific
[23:31] <ncfi1013> gasull u can also try the gui instead of terminal just to be safe and sure: root>bin...then search for them that way
[23:31] <gasull> rgr: I'm having problems with sound in Ubuntu 9.10.  I did a fresh install twice, and sounds works in the beginning but stops working at some point.  Only extra packages I've installed are some codecs that Totem asked me to install when I opened an .avi file.  The movie plaid afterwards, but after a reboot I have no sound.  It has happened twice today as I've done a fresh install twice trying to solve the problem.  How can I fix this?  Than
[23:31] <verbal> has anyone installed 9.10 server on a dell poweredge R805? i have a dell sas 6 controller. i can install onto raid 1 but cant boot off it.
[23:31] <paul__> hi, have just installed karmic.  when i plug my ipod in, rhythmbox sees it but banshee doesn't.  have searched online, tried purging rhythmbox but no joy.  can anyone help?
[23:32] <The_Doctor> gasull did you do an upgrade a new install. There have been a lot of problems with the upgrade and sound. I haven't found any anwers. I had to install new.
[23:32] <gasull> ncfi1013: what do you mean with "root>bin..."?
[23:32] <Kg1fast> daveycake:  do you have no sound at all
[23:32] <JayX> arand,  lol yes run is evey time i update > save > close the ect/defualt/grub
[23:32] <Lownin> The latest version of rtorrent in the repo for ubuntu server 8.04 appears to be rtorrent 0.8.0.  I'd like to install the latest stable release (0.8.4). I don't want to compile from source because I want to make sure apt-get is aware of all installed packages and dependencies.  What should I do?
[23:32] <erUSUL> verbal: maybe more help in #ubuntu-server ... i for one am not used to see SAS controllers ;)
[23:32] <gasull> The_Doctor: I installed new, but the I got automatic updates and then it stopped working.
[23:32] <rgr> I never expect sound to work on Ubuntu 9.10 at this stage to be honest. It's a total mess :-( I'm in the middle of upgrading another machine but don't hold out too much hope of success.
[23:33] <verbal> erUSUL: oh there's an ubuntu-server. thanks!
[23:33] <jwalsh> Could someone access an encrypted home folder from another 9.10 install on the same machine?
[23:33] <jwalsh> *help me
[23:33] <erUSUL> Lownin: see if a more recent version is in !backports
[23:33] <tiox> Probably too late to say now, but I figured out the problem that kept me from the internet...
[23:33] <ncfi1013> gasull yr usr folder displayed on the left side of yr home folder is called root
[23:33] <erUSUL> !backports | Lownin
[23:33] <gasull> Also I have no wireless, like daveycakes, but I'll worry about that later.
[23:33] <tiox> For some oddd reason id did not auto-connect. A restart fixed my issue.
[23:33] <rgr> gasull: did you run speaker-test and lspci etc?
[23:33] <roneau2005> !rar | roneau2005
[23:33] <tiox> it*
[23:34] <gasull> rgr: I'll do it now
[23:34] <Lownin> Thank you erUSUL and ubottu. I was not aware.  I appriciate the lead =)
[23:34] <gasull> rgr: but sound was working before a reboot
[23:34] <Rascal999> how do i route *ALL* traffic out of SOCKS host?
[23:34] <knoppies> Im still on 9.04. If I plug in sound while an MP4 video is playing in VLC then it seems to freeze my desktop. If VLC is not open, then its fine. Have any ideas?
[23:34] <haws> do you guys know why registering a domain at yahoo, at first seems like its U$ 9.xx per year, and then it shows "Recurring Charges" U$34.xx... do you understand what are those? (i know its totalyl unrelated, but i dunno noone else to ask :)
[23:34] <rgr> the point is its not now. indicating the wrong module is loaded or something. proceed as if you had installed a new card.
[23:34] <Rascal999> I'm ssh tunnelling so host would be localhost, port 8080
[23:35] <jwalsh> haws: it means it's $9 for the first year and more thereafter
[23:35] <nukeslion> hello, i'm looking through the --help for "ls" but i might just be missing it.. is there a way to display all contents of a folder with full paths?
[23:35] <haws> jwalsh: just because then i will supposedly have traffic on the site so i will pay more to have it...
[23:35] <gasull> ncfi1013: so you want me to search for pulse in /bin with Nautilus.  I didn't find anything.
[23:36] <jwalsh> haws: no. it's because they want to give you a low initial price
[23:36] <jwalsh> haws: registrars don't actually provide hosting
[23:36] <arand> JayX: Hmm, try setting it to just "5" run the update, and then paste the /boot/grub/grub.cfg again (I'm looking at the set_timeout thingys in there)
[23:36] <knoppies> nukeslion, not that I know of, but then Im no terminal guru. But it sounds like you can write a bash file to fix it.
[23:36] <knoppies> nukeslion, or rather emulate it, than fix it.
[23:37] <jwalsh> haws: registering a domain is different from buying hosting. though some services combine the two
[23:37] <JayX> arand k will set to 5 n restar
[23:37] <haws> jwalsh: i know, sure.. but what if i want to buy it for life (like, how much does it cost ubuntu.com? must be a fortune)
[23:37] <jwalsh> How do I access an encrypted home folder from another 9.10 install on the same machine?
[23:37] <JayX> restart* arand
[23:37] <SmithKurosaki> back
[23:37] <arand> JayX: no need to restart
[23:37] <ncfi1013> paul___i use amarok 2.2 to mount/sync my ipod the i go into the ipod_control folder when it shows up in the "devices recently plugged in" popup in the system tray. i then mount it/open in dolphin and go to the ipod_control folder and delete the songs from there. doing it that way also deletes orphaned songs from the ipod.
[23:37] <t0rc> Is 9.10 really riddled with errors?
[23:37] <Jack21> guys got some really werid issue with my ubuntu 9.10... news.bbc.co.uk takes FOREVER to load
[23:37] <Jack21> i think so ! lol
[23:37] <jwalsh> haws: a) you can't get a domain for life. you have to pay each year. b) it depends on the domain and the registrar
[23:37] <gasull> My user wasn't in the audio group.  I added it.
[23:38]  * gasull is going to reboot to see if sounds finally works
[23:38] <haws> jwalsh: thanks a lot!
[23:38] <arand> JayX: just set to 5 run the update-grub and then pastebin the /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[23:38] <jwalsh> haws: if you have to buy the domain from someone else, it costs a lot initially but it should be pretty cheap each year
[23:38] <jwalsh> haws: for instance
[23:38] <jwalsh> haws: my domain costs me about $9 each year (.com)
[23:39] <jwalsh> haws: top level domains vary wildly in price.
[23:39] <tiox> Hey, would anybody happen to know a .deb that'll enable my laptop to read SD cards?
[23:39] <ncfi1013> gasull anything with the word pulse in it EXCEPT "libpulse" and "reboot"
[23:39] <tiox> Preferably in the universe or multiverse repos.
[23:39] <jwalsh> How do I access an encrypted home folder from another 9.10 install on the same machine?
[23:39] <ncfi1013> gasull is nautilus kde?
[23:40] <knoppies> jwalsh, have you had a look on the ubuntu forums?
[23:40] <rgr> do you ask that to every question asked here knoppies?
[23:40] <knoppies> just those who repeat the questions over and over.
[23:40] <JayX> k GRUB_TIMEOUT="5" >> grub.cfg  ,,>> http://pastebin.com/d1dd932d6
[23:40] <ncfi1013> if i have an optical drive that is capable of burning blu-rays does that mean that an 8gib dual layer dvdrdl can also be a blu-ray recordable disc?
[23:41] <rgr> repeating is fine if the time betwene is > a few mminutes. new people come and go. and its a one liner.
[23:41] <arand> JayX: since for me I will have this grub.cfg file after running the update: which shows the set_timeout=200 :http://pastebin.com/m19ba4f51
[23:41] <jeeves_moss> how can I mount the .iso file so APT will find/use it locally?
[23:41] <arand> JayX: does the "update-grub" commad give errors for you?
[23:42]  * gasull still has no sound in his Ubuntu 9.10 (fresh install) after an automatic update
[23:43] <Jordan_U> gasull: Did you try an older kernel?
[23:43] <JayX> Arand nope, this is what I get when i run update-grub http://pastebin.com/d245f2232
[23:43] <gasull> Jordan_U: I only have one kernel in /boot
[23:43] <ncfi1013> jordan_u that was also what i was going to suggest
[23:43] <Jordan_U> JayX: There's your problem :)
[23:43] <Jordan_U> JayX: You aren't using grub2
[23:44] <gasull> Jordan_U: Only one vmlinuz-* file there.  The one installed by default.
[23:44] <jeeves_moss> how can I mount the .iso file so APT will find/use it locally?
[23:44] <roneau2005> Hi. How can I connect the wireless if I only login from the Ctrl-Alt-F1 console ?
[23:44] <The_Doctor> jeeves_moss try mount -o loop -t iso9660 file.iso /mnt/test
[23:44] <JayX> Jordan_U,  OMG are u serious!
[23:44] <JayX> lol
[23:44] <gasull> Jordan_U: should I install another kernel?  The sound was working right after the install.
[23:45] <JayX> Jordan_U, Arand will rstart now.. if it fail i'll leave it for another ay!
[23:45] <Jordan_U> gasull: Not the quickest way to debug but try reinstalling, then install etckeeper while sound is working ( etckeeper, once setup, will record all changes to files in /etc when you upgrade any package )
[23:45] <jeeves_moss> The_Doctor, hummm, what would be the syntax be to make it an auto mount?
[23:45] <Jordan_U> JayX: I am serious, would you like to install grub2?
[23:46] <gasull> Jordan_U: I'll guess I'll do that :-(  Thanks
[23:46] <arand> JayX: yep Jordan_U's right, that's what confusion stems from
[23:46] <The_Doctor> jeeves_moss that should mount it permanently
[23:46] <xiong> Nautilus in list mode seems to ignore symbols in filenames when sorting. That is, "!_bbb.txt" sorts between "aaa.txt" and "ccc.txt". Correct? Why? Can this be changed?
[23:46] <Jordan_U> gasull: Just quickly, have you tried "alsamixer -c 0" and checked that nothing is muted?
[23:47] <jeeves_moss> The_Doctor, I'd like to set up the distro's ISO into /mnt/distro/ so that I can set up APT to use it as the local copy (since I have a netbook with no CD-ROM drive)
[23:47] <ncfi1013> gasull what i suggested was advice from a friend that is an advanced user. when he did it it worked on his computer. i didnt have to do it with mine but it is good advice to have. hes never steered me wrong before
[23:47] <arand> gasull: Have you gone through the steps in http://drowninginbugs.blogspot.com/2009/10/caveats-for-audio-in-910.html AND http://unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/525-resolve-nosound-problem-on-ubuntu910-karmic-koala ??

[23:49] <knoppies> !sidebars
[23:49] <Jordan_U> dtcrshr: You are more likely to get help if you give a short description of the problem. That way if somene knows they are familiar with that subject they can check the link for more detailed info

[23:53] <gasull> Jordan_U: No one has MM at the bottom.  I put on green those that I could.  Some of them have no bar.
[23:53] <calamari_> Arsin: use a program called unetbootin

[23:56] <MenZa> ncfi1013: That's not the default keybind to bring up the Applications menu.
[23:56] <Arsin> calamari_: I would like to use only 8gb worth of space, how would I go about doing that?
[23:56] <vigdavies1> Anyone know what Ubuntu IRC chat I'd go to in order to get support on getting a new Epson 610 printer to work ?
[23:56] <Arsin> vigdavies1: This one
[23:56] <arand> gasull: ok, _might_ be any of the points in the links I sent.
[23:56] <gasull> Isn't there a Gnome app for configuring the sound?  I can't remember it.
[23:57] <ncfi1013> alt f2 then type in the app then hit enter thats not it?
[23:57] <roneau2005> Hello. Is there a program to open windows .chm files? Thanks
[23:57] <calamari_> Arsin: do you mean you want ubuntu on a flash drive larger than 8GB, to be limited to only 8GB?
[23:57] <Arsin> calamari_: It is 16GB, I want to limit Ubuntu to 8GB
[23:57] <MenZa> !printer | vigdavies1
[23:57] <calamari_> Arsin: partion the drive then :P
[23:58] <Arsin> calamari_: And it will write on the ext4 only right?
[23:58] <calamari_> Arsin: *partition
[23:58] <jtwhite> ncfi1013, Amarok isn't picking my iPod up
[23:58] <freaky[t]> does my pc become much slower when I install ubuntu with encrypted partitions?
[23:58] <calamari_> Arsin: well ubuntu wont go outside whatever partitions you set as mountpoints in the set up.
[23:58] <gasull> arand: I think it's actually the 2nd point in the 1st link: http://drowninginbugs.blogspot.com/2009/10/caveats-for-audio-in-910.html
[23:58] <vigdavies1> Arsin: oh good...thanks.  My wife & I just bought a Epson 610 multi-function unit and there's no driver within the Ubuntu 9.1 embedded library to get it going. I've installed gutenprint in trying to get it going. No success yet. Would you know of a fix for this ?
[23:58] <Arsin> calamari_: and would I be able to install it so that I can read all files off windows without installing anything on the windows computer if I were to boot into windows?
[23:58] <gasull> arand: slmodemd is running
[23:59] <calamari_> Arsin: so if you partition the drive 50-50, and set one as "/" and ignore the other, ubuntu will never go into that other partition
[23:59] <Enissay> How to install ATI x1650 in Ubuntu 9.10 please?
[23:59] <gasull> arand: But I don't understand the solution given there.
[23:59] <calamari_> Arsin: well ubuntu can mount windows NTFS drives easily.
[23:59] <ncfi1013> jtwhite also u can mount the ipod in the devices popup in system tray and go into ipod_control folder and delete the songs
