| tado | hey all. i am setting up a proxy (i think that is what tor is...!), but it seems to block firefox entirely. any help? | 00:03 |
| tado | sorry... tor gives anonimity, privoxy should be the proxy | 00:04 |
| sebsebseb | rodgerr: Flash generally is a bit hmm since propritary format and can sometimes cause issues with Firefox on Ubuntu. However according to one of the guys you can make with Open Office Impress, add your voice, and then convert it to Flash. I was also given this articlehttp://www.linux.com/news/software/applications/81113-openoffice-impress-features by another one | 00:05 |
| VCoolio | tado: did you set the proxy settings in firefox preferences? | 00:05 |
| tado | it does it automatically when i turn tor on, the thing is that i cannot browse anymore | 00:05 |
| tado | VCoolio: it does it automatically when i turn tor on, the thing is that i cannot browse anymore (sorry, missed the name :) ) | 00:06 |
| Slart | tado: it's not a dns resolution thing? can you use firefox with straight ip numbers? | 00:06 |

| Slart | tado: yes.. try http://74.125.79.105 it should get you a google page | 00:06 |
| rodgerr | sebsebseb: I am familiar with the ability to record for individual slides - it is an option - was looking for something that combined the slides and possibly kept track of the time of the audio (Students only listen for about 15 minutes before tuning out) I will look at the link you snet | 00:06 |
| rodgerr | sent | 00:07 |
| tado | Slart: nope.. can't open it. it says the proxy is refusing the connection | 00:07 |
| Slart | tado: hmm.. is the proxy running? | 00:07 |
| tado | Slart: how do i check it? | 00:08 |

| rodgerr | Sebsebseb: It is a lot of extra work, but doable. Each presentation would have to be broken into 15 minutes segments, the audio would have to be made in some other application, then the audio files incorporated into impress and then compiled into flash.

| DasEi2 | mow: syslog is agood place to look for the module of it | 00:59 |
| Classic | GodfatherofEire, no idea, but were u actually able to crack a network with that? | 00:59 |
| GodfatherofEire | Classic, on mine I can, but on my friends, some of the essential commands weren't operational | 01:00 |
| Classic | GodfatherofEire, what protocol did u crack with it? | 01:00 |
| benc1 | VCoolio: I didn't want to use it. I used Ctr+F3 to do something in the android emulator :) | 01:00 |

| Classic | GodfatherofEire, good luck learning | 01:02 |
| GodfatherofEire | Classic, I already know how to, but on my friends some of the commands are non-functional | 01:03 |
| Classic | GodfatherofEire, you mean on his install or on his network? | 01:03 |
| ChogyDan | GodfatherofEire: maybe the driver doesnt support the commands? | 01:04 |
| GodfatherofEire | Classic, on his install | 01:04 |
| Classic | GodfatherofEire, is his chip supported? | 01:04 |
| GodfatherofEire | ChogyDan, Classic, its not his drivers, its that the commands arent recognized period. As in, I put it in the terminal, and it doesnt recognize the command period. And the manpages werent there either | 01:05 |

| finsyourfriend | Good to know, since I followed the Comprehensive Sound Guide to Ubuntu and screwed my machine up for a good half week. | 01:26 |
| sebsebseb | finsyourfriend: always install from the repo, unless you have a good reason not to, and then use launchpad ppa's or compile stuff from source that game from trusted sources such as sourceforge | 01:26 |
| WesleyWex | Anyone know what could I do to fix this? | 01:26 |
| finsyourfriend | Will do. | 01:26 |
| finsyourfriend | :) | 01:26 |
| jonaskoelker | WesleyWex: reinstall 9.04 or switch to debian | 01:27 |

| mobi | is there a simple way to install vnc server from ssh terminal ? | 01:27 |
| DasEi2 | mow: I don't know this card, maybe yes, try removing it as it causes this behaviour and use a slim app in first to ensure the driver is set right before put a monster like mythtv on it | 01:27 |
| Typh | drink_sti: ignore sebsebseb if you're scared | 01:27 |
| jonaskoelker | finsyourfriend: you'd install it, see that it f*cks up your system, rebuild your sys from scratch and make a note not to install it again | 01:28 |
| sebsebseb | Typh: uhmm? | 01:28 |
| sebsebseb | !language | jonaskoelker | 01:28 |

| jordy240 | sebsebseb, i heard that for suspend mode to work in ubuntu, you need to have twice the swap space than ram. how can i shrink ubuntu(ext4)? i tried doing it from gparted live cd but gparted said that it cant shrink ubuntu because it cant read its superblock or something. | 01:36 |
| sebsebseb | ascheel: sure editing sources.lst the old way and then doing it or whatever. However if you upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 be warned, you may bump into issues, many people did. | 01:36 |

| holly | altight, thanks. I've got this printer that SHOULD work perfectly with linux (according to the internet), but it thinks it's working (goes "job completed" after a minute), but the hardware doesn't actually do anything. Tried installing it on both serial ports, but nada. What do I try next? | 01:36 |

| ascheel | ah ha! found it. sudo do-release-upgrdae | 01:37 |

| zopiac | when playing swf files with Gnash (offline) the video lags behind the sound. is there a fix? | 01:38 |

| DasEi2 | typo above (l<>L) | 01:40 |
| jrib | jonaskoelker: have you done anything with python... | 01:40 |
| sebsebseb | holly: oh Ubuntu is pretty great if all the hardware you want to use works, if not you have to configure it which can be a bit annoying for new users, however I haven't used it myself, but the help pages for setting up a printer that the bot is about to give you, are probably quite good. | 01:40 |

| jonaskoelker | jrib: I have written some, installed some new versions, ... | 01:40 |
| sebsebseb | holly: If you get stuck with any of the technical details when trying to set it up, just say | 01:40 |
| jrib | jonaskoelker: "installed some new versions" | 01:41 |
| jordy240 | jrib, and why can't ubuntu make it equial on install? instead of requiring me to have to do it? | 01:41 |
| DasEi2 | ascheel: first upgrade to desktop, then install server-kernel | 01:41 |
| ascheel | DasEi2: thank you. :) | 01:41 |
| kain_ | does anyone know of an equivalent for TeamViewer | 01:41 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: well, no, because ubuntu does some magic hack so I can't mess anything up by installing new versions, but I can't find the documentation that tells me what to do when the "make it work" breaks | 01:41 |
| jrib | jordy240: it usually makes it at least equal to ram in my experience. File a bug if it didn't | 01:41 |
| jrib | jonaskoelker: what are you talking about exactly? "magic hack"? | 01:41 |

| jrib | jonaskoelker: how did you "install new versions"? | 01:42 |
| holly | alright, thanks | 01:42 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: apt-get install python2.6 | 01:42 |
| sebsebseb | holly: np and good luck! | 01:42 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: or other versions | 01:42 |
| jrib | jonaskoelker: did you do anything not involving apt or use repositories that are not official ubuntu ones? | 01:43 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: no | 01:43 |
| jordy240 | jrib, question: how can I move a partition from the left side of my ntfs parition to the right side? | 01:43 |

| jonaskoelker | http://pastebin.com/f6f6a59d6 | 01:45 |
| jrib | jonaskoelker: this is karmic? | 01:46 |

| jonaskoelker | jrib: jaunty, but a few intrepid and karmic packages | 01:46 |
| jrib | jonaskoelker: /why/? | 01:46 |
| jrib | Typh: yes | 01:46 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: because I want to play nexuiz, so I want to install fglrx, so I want to install a really old x server, so I want to [etc.] | 01:46 |

| jonaskoelker | jrib: so is sticking to only one :-> | 01:47 |
| jrib | jonaskoelker: but that's supported, so you can report bugs and get them fixed for the future | 01:47 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: no, I can report bugs... | 01:47 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: oh well, some do get fixed | 01:48 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: also, I can't report "you're not fixing the bugs fast enough" as a bug | 01:48 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: but I can run older software that doesn't have the bug | 01:48 |
| arghh2d2 | somebody should change the ubuntu topic to read "dont go karmic unless you need certain hardware support" | 01:48 |
| finsyourfriend | Oh, here's a big reason about a dedicated box: I use Buddi software to do my budgeting on the VM, and am unsure how to transfer the budget file (location) to a new install. It took me a day to fix all the errors when installing Buddi. | 01:48 |
| Typh | Hmm, I can't seem to label one of my partitions. It's NTFS, if that matters | 01:49 |
| jonaskoelker | jrib: also, shouldn't problems with mixing only happen if the dependencies are listed wrong, and isn't that a bug you can file in any case? | 01:49 |
| jrib | jonaskoelker: but it makes it impossible, or at least a lot harder, to debug issues | 01:49 |

| seidos | i couldn't scp a file to a folder on a remote system, so i tried chmod 777 to give full access to the folder, but that wasn't necessary, since the folder was in the home directory on the remote system, so i deleted the folder and recreated it and it worked. is this normal behavior? | 02:10 |
| Dougdoug4 | I put it on a dvd | 02:10 |

| xcat | Ashfire908: right | 02:27 |

| Ashfire908 | xcat, is this proxy actually a proxy? If so it will need to access web servers on tcp port 80. | 02:28 |
| xcat | Ashfire908: actually you can even specify that for only localhost too. | 02:28 |

| fritzophrenic | yes | 02:50 |
| jonaskoelker | fritzophrenic: then there is some way to say "look for packages on the CD rather than the net", but I can't recall them off the top o' my head | 02:50 |
| rj1 | jonaskoelker see if theres a distributor near you | 02:50 |
| rj1 | ooh | 02:51 |
| rj1 | wait | 02:51 |
| jonaskoelker | rj1: huh? | 02:51 |
| rj1 | I know | 02:51 |
| rj1 | fritzophrenic: | 02:51 |
| rj1 | fritzophrenic: put in the cd | 02:51 |
| rj1 | and add it as a package source | 02:51 |
| rj1 | when you put in the cd | 02:51 |

| jonaskoelker | rance94: some kind of installation media; iso is probably easiest | 02:55 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: or you can use floppies :-> | 02:55 |

| rj1 | archet45 they do work just press the relevant keys | 02:59 |
| UdontKnow | rance94: if you're asking that, you need an assembly book to get started | 03:00 |
| justfil | without resetting the keyring globally, just for this app | 03:00 |
| Jamed | seidos: i thinks its for ext3's journaling | 03:00 |
| seidos | Jamed: thank you | 03:00 |
| Jamed | seidos: np :) | 03:00 |
| rance94 | yeah lol i want to start asm but not sure where or how | 03:00 |
| rj1 | enovativ check your dependencies | 03:01 |
| rj1 | rance94...dont do asm | 03:01 |
| rj1 | just dont | 03:01 |

| Doorman352 | rance94: You need a compiler to write in assembly | 03:02 |
| rance94 | doorman352 where could i get one | 03:02 |
| rj1 | rance94...no do NOT go to assembly. Go to C see if you like that | 03:02 |
| xjustyb11 | seidos, lost+found is where Linux places information that was lost due to some file system error. Think of it as CHK files from Window's CHKDSK utility. | 03:02 |
| archet45 | rj1, i can't get the media keys to work with any media application | 03:02 |
| SodaPhish | Doorman352, actually, no, you need a compiler to make your assembler run | 03:02 |
| fritzophrenic | ugh, I tried unchecking every option regarding the internet in the upgrade manager, and disconnecting from the internet, with the CD ROM listed as a source and checked, and the CD in the drive, but it STILL tries accessing the internet for the upgrade | 03:02 |

| Jamed | losha: oh... thanks for the info | 03:03 |
| SodaPhish | rance94, there are several in Linux -- look at as | 03:03 |
| SodaPhish | it should be available if you do `apt-get install as` | 03:03 |
| Doorman352 | SodaPhish: Correct. | 03:03 |
| rance94 | ahhh there arent any compilers for linux o and i know c++ | 03:03 |
| Hamsterdam | I'm new to linux and having a really basic problem - trying to run 9.10 and it only runs for about one minute and then freezes completely. thought it might be a hardware problem (it happens when I run ubuntu from a live disc) but windows runs fine | 03:03 |
| rj1 | yes there are | 03:03 |
| rj1 | gcc | 03:03 |
| rj1 | or g++ | 03:03 |
| Doorman352 | rance94: what processor you going to write for? | 03:03 |
| SodaPhish | err, not in as, gcc | 03:03 |
| xcat | does naybody know of a public secure dns server i can connect to? does opendns offer secure dns? | 03:03 |
| rj1 | hamsterdam what exactly happens | 03:03 |
| fritzophrenic | the CD drive spins a lot like it's trying to do something but then it stops spinning and a download progress bar shows up with a transfer rate and download time | 03:03 |
| cyberhacker | un asesor para java en cuestion de multimedia | 03:03 |
| rance94 | processor?? lol i have a dell laptop running ubuntu | 03:04 |
| rj1 | archet45: try editing the hotkeys in their configuration files | 03:04 |
| Hamsterdam | the screen just freezes | 03:04 |
| rj1 | rance94....just stick to C++ | 03:04 |
| SodaPhish | rance94, so, your compile target is i686 probably | 03:04 |
| SodaPhish | ;-) | 03:04 |
| rj1 | Assembler is processor specific | 03:04 |
| rj1 | Hamsterdam check the disk for errors from the livecd menu | 03:04 |
| SodaPhish | rj1, yes, but generally if you're coding on a dell laptop, you can learn i386 asm and go from there | 03:04 |
| rance94 | hey how do i get to the compiler from my desktop | 03:04 |
| SodaPhish | your processor specific bits are extensions | 03:04 |
| Doorman352 | rance94: assembly is based on a specific processors registers and commands, go for i higher level language like C | 03:04 |
| SodaPhish | rance94, you open a shell, and you can run gcc from there. | 03:05 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: open a terminal, run gcc | 03:05 |
| git__ | can ubuntu read exFAT (FAT64)? | 03:05 |
| rance94 | ahhh | 03:05 |
| Hamsterdam | rj1, thanks, but where do I look? like I said, I'm really new :( | 03:05 |
| sumeetbali | If anyone has any experience hackintosh please pm me..Thanks | 03:05 |
| SodaPhish | git__, probably | 03:05 |
| git__ | what filesystem does external USB 1TB use? | 03:05 |
| SodaPhish | sumeetbali, I do... | 03:05 |
| SodaPhish | git__, probably fat32/vfat | 03:05 |
| jonaskoelker | git__: probably fat | 03:06 |
| jonaskoelker | git__: maybe ntfs | 03:06 |

| rance94 | well how do i run it srry im new to ubuntu im not trying to sound stupid | 03:06 |
| sumeetbali | SodaPhish, you do omg thanks can i pm you | 03:06 |
| losha | rance94: I agree with Doorman352. Almost nobody writes in assembler any more, it's too low level. Are you sure your time wouldn't be better spent doing something else? | 03:06 |
| jonaskoelker | git__: there are programs which can find out for you | 03:06 |
| rj1 | hamsterdam when you put the cd in it will give you a menu | 03:06 |
| SodaPhish | sumeetbali, sure. | 03:06 |
| rj1 | thats where you select install | 03:06 |
| Hamsterdam | right | 03:06 |
| rj1 | instead of install there should be an option | 03:06 |
| SodaPhish | losha, totally not true. there are a TON of ppl who write in assembler. | 03:06 |
| rj1 | to check cd | 03:06 |
| rance94 | losha yeah lol im using python and c++ now | 03:06 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: run which? The C compiler? | 03:07 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: or c++? | 03:07 |
| rance94 | anyone i have both but dont know how to get to them | 03:07 |
| eigenman | is there an easy way to change the hal settings without rebooting the machine? I want to disable the power_management.quirks, but I can't figure out how. | 03:07 |
| rj1 | Hamsterdam its the menu BEFORE the desktop loads | 03:07 |
| Hamsterdam | ok, checking the disk now | 03:07 |
| git__ | i can't store a 20GB virtual image in a vfat partition | 03:07 |

| rj1 | rance94 look for make tutorials | 03:08 |
| rj1 | for C++ | 03:08 |
| rance94 | jonaskoelker i have both i doesnt matter how do i get to it?? | 03:08 |
| rj1 | make and gcc tutorials | 03:08 |
| rance94 | i have the compilers | 03:08 |
| rance94 | i just dont know how to get to them | 03:08 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: gcc foo.c | 03:08 |
| rj1 | ........assembly doesnt HAVE compilers | 03:08 |
| wolf23 | rj1: any idea dude, if there is a way to when i am typing on keyboard but with sound? | 03:08 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: or g++ foo.cpp | 03:08 |
| rj1 | Assembly has assemblers | 03:08 |
| rj1 | wolf23: nope | 03:08 |
| rance94 | g++ is what i have im trying to get to a c++ or my c compiler not assembley | 03:09 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: g++ is a c++ compiler | 03:09 |
| rance94 | wait i have g++ and gcc | 03:09 |
| enovativ | rj1: thanks for making me read the README.....i missed everything | 03:09 |
| losha | SodaPhish: if you say so. I don't see many job listings on craigslist for assembly language programmers... | 03:09 |
| rance94 | jonaskoelker how do i get to g++ compiler | 03:09 |
| wrgb | rance94: this is the ubuntu support channel, try one of the channels about programming | 03:09 |
| Hamsterdam | I thought it might be a hardware issue but windows runs fine on the same machine | 03:09 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: Applications->Accessories->Terminal | 03:09 |
| rj1 | rance94: sudo apt-get g++ | 03:10 |
| mrXX | is anyone using cairo and dnd2share? | 03:10 |
| rance94 | rj1 i already have it | 03:10 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: then type g++ my-file.cpp | 03:10 |
| Ironicus | whats the main difference between mandriva and ubuntu? | 03:10 |
| microlith | losha: generally you won't, people who do that tend to not need to look on craigslist | 03:10 |
| jonaskoelker | where my-file.cpp is the c++-file you want compiled | 03:10 |
| Doorman352 | rj1: We compiled source code written in assembly language hundreds of years ago.... | 03:10 |
| rj1 | then rance94: http://www.cs.bu.edu/fac/gkollios/cs113/Usingg++.html | 03:10 |
| Ironicus | mandriva seems more beautiful, but is it as good as ubuntu? | 03:10 |
| rj1 | Doorman352: no you didnt you used an assembler to translate assembly | 03:10 |
| losha | microlith: seems like a good argument for my point about them being rare these days.... | 03:10 |
| jonaskoelker | Ironicus: I think you might get a biased answer in here ;-) | 03:11 |
| rance94 | jonaskoelker lol no such file or directory so i guess i make one and enter that | 03:11 |
| Ironicus | hehe | 03:11 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: well, depends on what you want to do | 03:11 |
| rj1 | Doorman352: into binary | 03:11 |
| rance94 | i want to write code like in the dev compiler | 03:11 |
| microlith | losha: mostly because the only people who need to do it are people porting to new architectures or doing work in super small microcontrollers | 03:11 |
| SodaPhish | losha, that's because there aren't many jobs that are EXCLUSIVELY assembler related | 03:11 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: if you just want to code up some random c++, yeah, just go ahead | 03:11 |
| Ironicus | but I often hear about tools in ubuntu. I am a programmer, what are those tools for me | 03:11 |
| rance94 | in notepad | 03:11 |
| rj1 | Ironicus emacs/gedit/vim and g++/gcc | 03:12 |
| jonaskoelker | rance94: or vi or emacs :D | 03:12 |
| losha | Hamsterdam: try a different release e.g. 8.04. Or maybe a different distro.... | 03:12 |
| xcat | does anybody know what i would install to get ubuntu base install to detect the right resolution on a system after i've installed an x server? | 03:12 |
| jonaskoelker | Ironicus: emacs/vi, gcc, gdb, gprof, valgrind, ... | 03:12 |
| Doorman352 | rj1: I'll bow to your obvious expertise, what do I know anyway. | 03:12 |
| rj1 | Doorman352: more than I do but terminology does change ;) | 03:12 |
| rance94 | omfg lol i hate this i want a compiler like dev but for linux do they have a compiler like that or not? | 03:12 |
| Ironicus | but how those toos can motivate me to use linux instead of windows for developpemet? | 03:12 |
| jonaskoelker | I hear someone implemented a C compiler in elisp :-> | 03:12 |
| Ironicus | those tool* | 03:12 |
| rj1 | rance94: FINE just use eclipse! | 03:13 |
| rance94 | rj1 lol srry k | 03:13 |
| jonaskoelker | Ironicus: because they're better :) | 03:13 |
| Hamsterdam | Thanks all! I'll burn some discs and see where that leaves me | 03:13 |
| jonaskoelker | Ironicus: and as a programmer, you know important it is to have the best possible tools :) | 03:13 |
| rance94 | rj1 didnt mean to say it like that it came out kinda mean lolz srry jonaskoelker | 03:13 |
| rj1 | rance94 all of us answered your question multiple times, I am sorry that I lost my patience though | 03:13 |
| Ironicus | gedit doesn't seems better to anything lol | 03:14 |

| avgeneral | I have a problem: I lost sound after resuming from stand bye. I still see volume control. But still no sound | 03:14 |

| Doorman352 | rance94: According to the Ubuntu Forums, try reading the manual by typing this in terminal: man nasm | 03:22 |
| rj1 | spO: maybe you need a different type of codec Doorman352: ninjad | 03:22 |
| jrtroberts | ok,, I need to setup a private repository for my college's LUG , the LTC LUG NUTS :) | 03:22 |
| jrtroberts | but I do not really know now to do this.. | 03:22 |
| spO | rj1, i am using coreavc, what is doorman? | 03:22 |
| rj1 | spO: doorman is another user | 03:23 |
| manoj | hi | 03:23 |
| rance94 | doorman352 ok i read it | 03:23 |
| rj1 | spO: follow the media install guide on the ubuntu forums spO | 03:23 |
| jrtroberts | I have seen the apt-mirror and apt-cacher options | 03:23 |
| rance94 | doorman352 so do i write asm in notepad cause im lost | 03:23 |
| Doorman352 | rance94: This is the only helpful comment for nasm, I could find in the forums: "I don't use nasm, but from what I have read you use a text editor to write the code then pass it on to nasm." | 03:24 |
| jrtroberts | but my college may not have the bandwidth for the apt-cacher (the IT department has limited ftp downloading to almost nothing) | 03:24 |
| avgeneral | yes sry about that rj1 | 03:24 |

| inertial | rance94: are you looking to learn programming? someone told you to start with assembler?? | 03:25 |
| rj1 | avgeneral: crud crud...I THINK your using pulse audio? | 03:25 |
| sebsebseb | datz: busy you mean? | 03:26 |
| avgeneral | rj1, if by karmic koala defaults then yes | 03:26 |
| losha | rance94: note also that you can write a C program and ask gcc to show you the assembly language it creates. Great learning tool... | 03:26 |
| spO | rj1, thanks | 03:26 |
| datz | sebsebseb: where, here, or there? | 03:26 |
| rj1 | avgeneral: type in pulseaudio see if that works | 03:26 |
| sebsebseb | datz: here | 03:26 |
| rj1 | spO no problem | 03:26 |
| datz | sebsebseb: yep | 03:26 |
| NightEyes1 | I broke my sound. I wanted to get my mic to work on RecordMyDesktop so I insalled Jack Control from the repo and and did some messing around with it. Before I found out the sound went away I removed Jack control. It later came to me after messing with other settings that it may have been jack. I disconnected it from the server, but it crashed on me. It kept crashing on me installed and remved it a couple of times still no dice | 03:26 |
| rance94 | inertial well see i did use win xp and i know c++ and python but i want to learn asm and now i have linux and i dont know what to use to program in asm | 03:26 |
| alex87 | do many of you make money using linux? | 03:26 |
| sebsebseb | datz: sure, but sometimes not that much going on | 03:26 |
| avgeneral | rj1: Daemon already running. \n pa_pid_file_create() failed | 03:26 |
| Doorman352 | rj1: not to harp, but check the link I posted..... "Step 2. Compile .asm (source code) to .o (object)" | 03:27 |
| datz | sebsebseb: true, the same old I assume | 03:27 |
| sebsebseb | datz: the same old? | 03:27 |
| pressman57 | Has anyone else reported a seriously messed-up X in ubuntu . SIS onboard video, Logitech cordless mouse. | 03:27 |
| rj1 | Doorman352: doorman there is a difference between assembled and compiled languages :D | 03:27 |
| jrtroberts | losha: that may work, I had seen that, but then does the server need any configuring to make it work. or just the clients? | 03:27 |
| inertial | rance94: what do you want to learn asm for? you only have to hand write it if you're writing system code and even then only small amounts | 03:27 |
| Fezzler | WOW. Upgraded last night. Amazing. | 03:27 |
| datz | sebsebseb: the same old sujects...just a guess..could be something new all the time ;) | 03:27 |

| LordHawke13 | Anyone know how to fix MIME entries? | 03:28 |
| LordHawke13 | I've a real unique problem. . . | 03:29 |
| sebsebseb | pressman57: yep SIS don't support Linux :( as far as I know and if I remember correctly | 03:29 |
| pressman57 | sebsebseb, well they work just fine in Gentoo. I'm talkin' an unusable system. It's an embarrassment. | 03:29 |
| rance94 | inertial well i heard it was really low level so it sounds interesting | 03:29 |
| Blue1 | sebsebseb: i have it installed and all that (there is nothing in tools/plugins) I get the error messages (unable to retrive buddlist) | 03:29 |
| LordHawke13 | My Guitar Pro tabs are recognized as "Guitar Pro Tableture" but the MIME entry is "audio/" I don't know how to fix that. . . Please help. | 03:30 |
| rj1 | rance94 have you taken a course in programming? (any courses at all, being absolutely serious here) | 03:30 |
| inertial | rance94: i'd suggest getting a development board for a microcontroller and learning the assembler for it | 03:30 |
| sebsebseb | pressman57: well quite a few things that don't just work in Ubuntu, will in another distro | 03:30 |
| rance94 | rj1 no lol im 15 and ive read books and youtube | 03:30 |
| losha | jrtroberts: well the way the web page does it, you make a CD and then just insert it on any machine you want to install stuff on.... | 03:30 |
| NightEyes1 | to who ever needed info on MIME entries what exactly did you need did you check .htaccess | 03:30 |
| Doorman352 | rj1: Don't know if I could argue that nowadays, but back in my day, we compiled code....... Z80, 8080, 8086 era; been a looong time | 03:30 |
| inertial | rance94: programming a microcontroller in assembler would be more satisfying because you can do more... | 03:30 |
| NightEyes1 | excuse me if I spelled that wrong | 03:30 |
| LordHawke13 | NightEyes1, What's htaccess? | 03:31 |
| losha | Doorman352: heh, you're really old.... | 03:31 |
| pressman57 | sebsebseb, they worked in three past versions of Ubuntu. Why won't they now? | 03:31 |
| jrtroberts | losha right, but I need a server since repositories can be several GB a cd may not work. | 03:31 |
| LordHawke13 | NightEyes1, or .htaccess? | 03:31 |
| rance94 | inertial well after i finish this program im writing in python ill try that | 03:31 |
| sebsebseb | pressman57: ,because sometimes hardware that just worked in previous versions of Ubuntu, don't in a later one | 03:31 |
| * Doorman352 is older than dirt, I remember workin on systems with < 1K RAM | 03:31 | |

| LordHawke13 | !.htaccess | 03:32 |

| Bam_Bam | does cron run bash scripts with root permissions? | 03:32 |
| Fretegi_2 | how can i boot straight to a command prompt only in ubuntu hardy? | 03:33 |
| rance94 | inertial k thx | 03:33 |
| LordHawke13 | NightEyes1, Not webpages. MIME types. The computer's way of recognizing file contents. The kind denoted by the file extension. . . | 03:33 |
| jrtroberts | Fretegi_2: you might research run levels | 03:33 |
| justfil | i forgot the name of the app that executes scheduled commands... what was it? | 03:33 |
| losha | jrtroberts: well, I'm pretty sure you could adapt the process to run from disk instead of cdrom. You'll have to do a bit of digging on google for it though, as I've never done it myself... | 03:33 |
| LordHawke13 | Can anybody help me with this problem? | 03:33 |
| Bam_Bam | justfil, cron | 03:33 |
| justfil | Bam_Bam, yes, thank you | 03:33 |
| Bam_Bam | does cron run bash scripts with root permissions? | 03:34 |
| Fretegi_2 | well on other distros you can edit the /etc/inittab file and adjust the run levels... not sure on ubuntu | 03:34 |
| Jamed | Bam_Bam: only if you add the commands to roots crontab | 03:34 |
| Bam_Bam | Ok, thanks | 03:34 |
| NightEyes1 | one time I was messing with the file and instead of PHP pages appearing they would download on a users computer I then found that it modified the MIME files | 03:34 |
| taofd | How do I set compiz to focus apps that require attention even if they are located on other workspaces? | 03:34 |
| lucascastro | can someone use ipp2p on ubuntu server ? | 03:35 |
| NightEyes1 | I removed it the lines of code that where responsible | 03:35 |
| pressman57 | sebsebseb, because of kernel size? Do I have to install a "retro-kernel" and all that entails, or do I re-build the source? What a pain in the ass. | 03:35 |
| NightEyes1 | that's why I mentioned it | 03:35 |
| arvind_k | hi, i have a 100gb partition and have set it up as ext3...how do i make it writeable by me? | 03:35 |

| Jamed | Fretegi_2: you can do that in ubuntu as well | 03:36 |
| taofd | How do I set compiz to focus apps that require attention even if they are located on other workspaces? | 03:36 |

| Fretegi_2 | i get a blank doc if i try to edit /etc/inittab | 03:36 |
| Jamed | Fretegi_2: sudo nano /etc/inittab (ar whatever editor you prefer) | 03:36 |
| Jamed | Fretegi_2: oh, strange | 03:37 |
| sebsebseb | Blue1: you need to install the plugin for Facebook IM | 03:37 |
| sebsebseb | Blue1: and then enable it in Pidgin | 03:37 |
| Fretegi_2 | lemme try again | 03:37 |
| Bam_Bam | Jamed, it appears that the root account is used to run the /etc/cron.hourly scripts on the 9.10 server I have | 03:37 |

| sebsebseb | Blue1: you need to set the account up for it | 03:37 |

| Bam_Bam | rj1, I need a command line alternative | 03:42 |
| Jamed | Fretegi_2: i just realized that there is no inittab anymore. i guess its because ubuntu uses upstart now | 03:42 |
| filthynoob | wat | 03:42 |
| Fretegi_2 | ahh, gotcha, so how do i boot directly to a command terminal only then | 03:42 |
| cam_ | bondy: i used USB disk creator to create the thumb drive with persistent mode on | 03:42 |
| losha | jrtroberts: look at 'man apt-mirror' for sample config lines.... | 03:42 |

| Jordan_U | cam_: Did you enable persistence? | 03:45 |
| LordHawke13 | TTY1 | 03:45 |
| Fretegi_2 | hmmmm... well its for running on a server, no need to waste resources on the gui, never need to work on it, can always load later if needed anyhow, thats the goal at least | 03:45 |
| Fretegi_2 | hadnt tried that roberts, i shall tho thanks | 03:45 |
| plustax | I am trying to make a video of my desktop, but I want to use music coming from my songbird. I have jackd installed but it doesnt seem to be working. I am using gtk recordmydesktop | 03:45 |
| plustax | can anyone help me? | 03:45 |
| jrtroberts | did you install server or desktop? | 03:45 |
| taofd | does karmic sync its clock to internet time? or is there a way to enable this without too much hassle? | 03:45 |
| jrtroberts | since the last time I installed server it did not have a gui installed by default. | 03:46 |
| Jamed | Fretegi_2: if you use jrtroberts way it will still start the GUI | 03:46 |
| cam_ | Jordan_U: yes | 03:46 |
| xim_ | taofd, it does it automatically | 03:46 |
| LordHawke13 | I'm lost. Can someone help me? | 03:46 |
| Ashfire908 | Fretegi_2, IF you want a no-gui server, install ubuntu server edition. | 03:46 |
| taofd | xim_, oh it does? cool :) | 03:46 |
| Fretegi_2 | well currently its desktop, just trying to figure it out, should be the same yes? | 03:46 |
| xim_ | taofd, yeah you dont set the clock, just the timezone | 03:46 |
| Jordan_U | cam_: How large is the flash drive? | 03:46 |
| xim_ | taofd, in fact, i wouldnt know how to sit it to an arbitarry time if i wanted to | 03:46 |
| Fretegi_2 | yea there is no need for the gui to run until i need it, and if i build it right that wont be often :) | 03:46 |
| jrtroberts | I believe that server does not distribute with the desktop environment | 03:47 |
| taofd | xim_, i mean, is it kept up to date though.. is it kept in sync? | 03:47 |
| plustax | I am trying to make a video of my desktop, but I want to use music coming from my songbird. I have jackd installed but it doesnt seem to be working. I am using gtk recordmydesktop | 03:47 |
| plustax | can anyone help me? | 03:47 |
| jrtroberts | you have to install it with the apt-get | 03:47 |
| digitalfiz | Ashfire908, ever use it with id_rsa files? i dont seem to see a way to in the help | 03:47 |
| taofd | xim_, like windows and mac will occassionall ping an internet server to check time | 03:47 |
| jrtroberts | at least that is how it was with 8.04 | 03:47 |
| cam_ | my flash drive is 16GB; i installed ubuntu on a 2GB partition. | 03:47 |
| Fretegi_2 | i am running 8.04 actually | 03:47 |
| jrtroberts | so try installing the server and that will cut out a lot of problems. | 03:47 |
| cam_ | Jordan_U: my flash drive is 16GB; i installed ubuntu on a 2GB partition. | 03:47 |
| taofd | Fretegi_2, upgrade to karmic, you're missing out :) | 03:47 |
| Jamed | Fretegi_2: i found something: edit DEFAULT_RUNLEVEL in /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf | 03:47 |
| jrtroberts | right but you are using the desktop distro, no the server distro | 03:48 |
| rynye | xim_: proprietary just means that the drivers are closed sourced. dual screen with nvidia cards is pretty ez on windows anyway. not too sure if it will work with linux. haven't tried that yet. | 03:48 |
| eL_pSycHo | hi, im using karmic. and i have installed gnome and KDE. i would like to know if i can make cairo dock autostart in gnome but not in KDE. currently it autostarts on both. anyone know how? | 03:48 |
| xim_ | taofd, lol yeah, theres plenty of people using ubuntu, you can assume things like that work. although i dont know anything about the actual sync algorithms | 03:48 |
| Bam_Bam | Oh, I've got another question... How come sudo updatedb in my server returns command not found, even with the FindUtils package? | 03:48 |
| Jamed | Fretegi_2: oh, hten ignore my last message | 03:48 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, one sec | 03:48 |
| Jamed | Fretegi_2: *then | 03:48 |
| rj1 | eL_psycho where did you set the startup | 03:48 |
| taofd | xim_, thanks dude :) | 03:48 |
| inertial | excuse my ignorance, but is it as easy to upgrade from an 'alternate' release than just the standard one? | 03:48 |
| eL_pSycHo | rj1, in gnome. | 03:48 |
| taofd | Anyone know how to set compiz (or gnome) to focus apps that require attention even if they are located on other workspaces? | 03:48 |
| Jordan_U | cam_: For a 16 gig flash drive I would suggest a normal install, just use the standard installer and make sure you set grub to be installed to the flash drive rather than your internal drive | 03:48 |

| rj1 | ok there should be something called xcript. Just set it on that. | 03:48 |

| Fretegi_2 | thanks jamed, i would upgrade however i cannot, no graphix support that i am aware of | 03:48 |

| xim_ | rynye, i know it will work with windows, but i also know computers that refuse to run ubuntu because of certain video cards (atleast >vga) | 03:48 |
| rj1 | el_psycho ignore what I said | 03:49 |
| rj1 | gimme a second | 03:49 |
| eL_pSycHo | rj1, ok | 03:49 |
| NightEyes1 | xim: from my understanding even if they where closed source doesn't mean someone can't make opensource drivers that just so happen to work | 03:49 |
| Fretegi_2 | man i feel like an idiot, cant remember anything, whats the command to check version again? i only found my kernel | 03:49 |
| jongjong | jongberg1: hello | 03:49 |
| Jordan_U | cam_: There are disadvantages to a standard "persistent" install, for instance you can't upgrade the kernel | 03:49 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, how are you useing ssh at the moment? | 03:49 |
| digitalfiz | Ashfire908, yes i can ssh using a id_rsa just cant find the options in sshfs to do so | 03:50 |
| init6 | I encrypted a partition where my home directory is. under 9.10 at boot i don't always type my password before the gui login screen appears and i can't login. has anyone documented fixes for this problem? | 03:50 |
| rj1 | el_psycho try using the xsession script | 03:50 |
| jrtroberts | Fretegi_2: try run level 3 or 4 | 03:50 |
| rj1 | and then just starting that as a session | 03:50 |
| Bam_Bam | Oh, I've got another question... How come sudo updatedb in my server returns command not found, even with the FindUtils package? | 03:50 |
| rj1 | then remove the gnome startup | 03:50 |
| jrtroberts | 3 - Multiple users, command line (i.e., all-text mode) interface; the standard runlevel for most Linux-based server hardware. | 03:50 |
| jrtroberts | 4 - User-definable | 03:50 |
| === mr is now known as Guest35323 | ||
| digitalfiz | Ashfire908, for ssh its -i id_rsa_file but sshfs doesnt seem to have that option | 03:50 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, i don't think you need to tell it to use a key... | 03:50 |
| digitalfiz | thats the only way to login to my server lol | 03:51 |
| rj1 | oh and eL_pSycHo try that at your own risk | 03:51 |
| spirits-sight | anyone know the apt-get install ... for instaling lamp server all at once I know there is a package that does so? | 03:51 |
| Billiard1 | digitalfiz: i would think it would use the key in your ~/.ssh directory | 03:51 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, when i use a key it's transparent... | 03:51 |
| eL_pSycHo | rj1, so, start xsession, and then do what there? | 03:51 |
| digitalfiz | its not a key its an identification method | 03:51 |
| jongjong | spirits-sight: sudo apt-get install lamp-server | 03:51 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, whatever you want to call it... | 03:52 |
| digitalfiz | i dont use a password i use id_rsa | 03:52 |
| xae8koo | Support for collaborative applications (“tubes”). What is that? | 03:52 |
| rj1 | el_psycho im going to have to boot into linux real quick, you might want to consider asking someone else I might be confused XD | 03:52 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, is the id_rsa file in your ~/.ssh directory? | 03:52 |
| Fretegi_2 | k think i found it, ill report back | 03:52 |
| digitalfiz | Ashfire908, if it helps im on an amazon ec2 install of ubuntu | 03:52 |
| Jordan_U | spirits-sight: sudo tasksel | 03:53 |
| eL_pSycHo | rj1, hehe thanks. im gonna take a look at xsession. | 03:53 |
| default | nick xcat | 03:53 |
| === default is now known as xcat | ||
| rj1 | eL_pSycHo: no wait xsession should work | 03:53 |
| rj1 | here | 03:53 |
| spirits-sight | jongjong: OK do you know if its the same for the server edition ? if so why would it say can't find package lamp-server | 03:53 |
| rynye | xim: I only know of one video card which im running that will handle duel screens just fine. pretty, sure anyway. im running a geforce go 7400 if that helps any. it's a laptop card..so it runs on the slow side. | 03:53 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, is the id_rsa file in your ~/.ssh directory? | 03:53 |
| digitalfiz | Ashfire908, yes | 03:53 |
| Billiard1 | spirits-sight: i dont think there is a package lamp-server | 03:54 |
| rj1 | http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/docbook/en/html/app-setup.html it wont look exactly the same so I am advising you to ask around the forums | 03:54 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, and sshfs doesn't autouse the key/whatever? | 03:54 |
| Billiard1 | digitalfiz: does ssh use the key automatically ? | 03:54 |
| Jordan_U | spirits-sight: There is no lamp package but there is a lamp "tak" in tasksel | 03:54 |
| spirits-sight | Jordan_U: that the one how do you do this please | 03:55 |
| Jordan_U | spirits-sight: sudo tasksel | 03:55 |
| cam_ | Jordan_U: so what should i do ? | 03:56 |
| Jordan_U | cam_: For a 16 gig flash drive I would suggest a normal install, just use the standard installer and make sure you set grub to be installed to the flash drive rather than your internal drive | 03:56 |
| digitalfiz | Billiard1, Ashfire908, i had to rename it to id_rsa for it to work | 03:56 |
| Billiard1 | digitalfiz: yeah that makes sense | 03:56 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, that's normal. | 03:56 |
| digitalfiz | Ashfire908, but now i get: read: Connection reset by peer | 03:56 |
| arvind_k | hi, i have a 100gb partition and have set it up as ext3...how do i make it writeable by me? | 03:57 |
| LordHawke13 | Why would a filetype read as "audio/" when it has a MIME type entry in the database? "audio/x-gtp" | 03:57 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, I'm totally clueless towards that. | 03:57 |
| === arvind_k is now known as arvind_khadri | ||
| Jordan_U | cam_: To set where grub is installed click advanced when you get to this screen: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/images/9.10/9.jpg | 03:57 |
| digitalfiz | Ashfire908, well i wanted to specify the id_rsa because i have different id_rsa's depending on the host | 03:57 |
| LordHawke13 | !mime | 03:58 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about mime | 03:58 |
| Ashfire908 | digitalfiz, ah. | 03:58 |
| LordHawke13 | f*** | 03:58 |
| sumeetbali | has anyone used maconlinux? | 03:58 |
| Ashfire908 | LordHawke13, you mean fsck? | 03:58 |
| Billiard1 | digitalfiz: you may be able to have multiple keys in one id_rsa file | 03:58 |
| digitalfiz | Billiard1, ah didnt think about that ill check it out thanks | 03:59 |
| greezmunkey | Whoa, I didn't know Evolution could deal with GMail, and MS Exchange Web Access accounts! Zowie. | 03:59 |
| Billiard1 | digitalfiz: but im not positive | 03:59 |
| LordHawke13 | Ashfire908, I mean a lot of things. . . I'm stumped and I can't find any answers, anywhere. | 03:59 |
| Roasted | hey guys - how can I check the md5 sum of an ISO cd I already made? | 03:59 |
| Jordan_U | !md5 | Roasted | 03:59 |
| ubottu | Roasted: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 03:59 |
| vivid | sumeetbali, MOL has had almost no activity in over 3 years, you might want to search for another alternative | 04:00 |
| LordHawke13 | Roasted, MD5 the volume, then MD5 the ISO | 04:00 |
| cam_ | Jordan_U: the reason i went for a "live cd" was because of read/write made on the key which could alter the life of the thumbdrive ... what do u think about that ? | 04:00 |
| sumeetbali | vivid,okay do you know of any others? | 04:00 |
| kylo | hello | 04:00 |
| Ashfire908 | Roasted, I think i've md5sumed the device before and I think that works. | 04:00 |
| webbb82 | what is a good file search tool ,, like beagle or gnome--do what are the best ones | 04:00 |
| kylo | how do i decrypt my /home so i can install a differant distro | 04:00 |
| LordHawke13 | kylo, Goodbye. This room's fresh out of answers tonight. . . | 04:00 |
| Roasted | lockhawke13 - well, yeah, but how do I check it on the CD... I already burned it. I have the md5 of the iso file but I wanted to make sure it matches on the CD. | 04:00 |
| Roasted | lordhawk* | 04:01 |
| Ashfire908 | Roasted, sudo dd if=CDROM_DEVICE | md5sum | 04:01 |
| Jordan_U | cam_: You are still writing just as much when you use persistant mode ( sometimes more because of having to do a copy on write for existing files ) | 04:01 |
| vivid | sumeetbali, i do not, however, most of mac os is open source, i would try to find open replacements for whatever it is youre trying to do | 04:01 |
| LordHawke13 | Pop it back in and md5 sum the mount point. Shouls work. | 04:01 |
| Roasted | lordhawke13 - nope, it wont | 04:01 |
| Ashfire908 | Roasted, where CDROM_DEVICE is the cdrom device node. | 04:01 |
| PhantomLink | is there a program i can use to broadcast my webcam from ubuntu? | 04:01 |
| sumeetbali | vivid, thanks | 04:01 |

| dpreacher | what tool do you use to turn on wifi or detect if there is wifi in acer aspireone? | 04:02 |
| dpreacher | using jaunty | 04:02 |
| kylo | does anyone know how i could decrypt my ubuntu /home | 04:02 |
| scott_ino2 | PhantomLink, give me a sec yes | 04:02 |
| Ashfire908 | greezmunkey, the md5sum thing? you should get the md5sum of the disk. | 04:02 |
| scott_ino2 | PhantomLink, gotta find it | 04:03 |
| Jordan_U | dpreacher: Have you tried System > Administration > Hardware Drivers? | 04:03 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, I should match that to something that tells me that the disk burned correctly right? | 04:03 |
| scott_ino2 | PhantomLink, you know it should work via flash with justin.tv, ustream etc.. right? | 04:03 |
| dpreacher | Jordan no. will try that. thanks | 04:03 |
| PhantomLink | they're not picking up the cam | 04:04 |
| PhantomLink | I'll use a windows VM | 04:04 |
| PhantomLink | this cam is windows compatible | 04:04 |
| Ashfire908 | greezmunkey, the md5sum should match the md5sum the iso should be. | 04:04 |
| scott_ino2 | PhantomLink, what cam? | 04:04 |
| scott_ino2 | PhantomLink, im pretty good with cams | 04:04 |

| PhantomLink | :( | 04:05 |
| kylo | how do i decrypt my /home so i can install a differant distro | 04:05 |
| PhantomLink | it doesn't give me the "accept" button | 04:05 |
| Ashfire908 | rance94, not if you use that many question marks. | 04:05 |
| scott_ino2 | PhantomLink, yeah i actually noticed that they did tonight.... | 04:05 |

| inveratulo | rance94 why are you using eclipse? | 04:07 |
| kylo | how do i decrypt my /home so i can install a differant distro | 04:07 |
| scott_ino2 | PhantomLink, perhaps zoneminder can do a broadcast? | 04:08 |
| rance94 | inveratulo because i was told it was good | 04:08 |
| MenZa | kylo: You probably mean 'remove the encryption'. | 04:08 |
| PhantomLink | zoneminder? | 04:08 |
| Billiard1 | rance94: well ive never used eclipse, is there a new project button maybe? i could help you with codeblocks | 04:08 |
| inveratulo | rance94 always question opinions :-P | 04:08 |
| kylo | too many words, but yes, that is what i would like to do | 04:08 |
| MenZa | kylo: I don't recall what encryption Ubuntu uses for its home partitions, but chances are you could find a package on whatever other distro you're installing that'll allow you to use it, without removing the encryption. | 04:08 |
| rance94 | inveratulo ok i will good advice | 04:09 |

| webbb82 | anyone in here use beagle or tracker or know of a good alternative | 04:12 |
| ziggy_ | what do you suggest i use for winrar files | 04:12 |
| inveratulo | wdouglas, use crontab to kick off the script and handle the 1 minute waits with your script logic? | 04:12 |
| ziggy_ | can i use swine | 04:12 |

| Ashfire908 | greezmunkey, checking the disk? is the disk still reading? | 04:12 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, yes | 04:12 |
| wdouglas | inveratulo: It looks like that's about the only way to get it going kinda sad about it. Thanks | 04:13 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, hold on, I think it's done. | 04:13 |
| inveratulo | wdouglas, check out python, its great for little one off scripts like that | 04:13 |
| spirits-sight | when doing tasksel it has option for basic ubuntu server <-- what is this exactly, I know what LAMP is but do I want this other thing or not? | 04:13 |
| ziggy_ | what does people suggest on unzipping winrar Files | 04:13 |
| spO | how do i install the newer version of gcc? | 04:13 |
| wdouglas | Alrighty, happier to use python anyway though it'll be calling perl, how dirty lol | 04:14 |
| rj1 | spO sudo apt-get install gcc | 04:14 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, here's what I got back, what next? http://paste.ubuntu.com/312698/ | 04:14 |
| inveratulo | ziggy_ saying "winrar" is ambiguous. what platform are you on and what is the file? is it a .tar? tar.gz? .tgz? | 04:14 |
| rj1 | should get you the latest in repository | 04:15 |
| ChogyDan | spirits-sight: you can do a tasksel list or something to see the packages | 04:15 |
| Ashfire908 | greezmunkey, uh... | 04:15 |
| Ashfire908 | greezmunkey, let me try. | 04:15 |
| rj1 | ziggy_ you just need to install the appropriate package and arhive manager will do it for you | 04:15 |
| spirits-sight | I did but it does not tell me what basic ubuntu server is? | 04:15 |
| spO | rj1, i have version 4.4.1 , i want version 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 , apt-get doesn't do it | 04:16 |
| ziggy_ | i ziped it using winrar on a windows platform then transferd it to a linux ubuntu os the file format is rar | 04:16 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, I think I understand the value of this, but how do I validate my results? | 04:16 |
| ChogyDan | spirits-sight: it certainly isn't more than the packages it installs... so the answer to your question would be a generalization of those packages | 04:16 |
| unko | hey guys i have two questions how do i fix this: http://lookpic.com/i/754/VWkP1Ng0.png also what dirver should i use for my card? ATI x1400 | 04:16 |

| inveratulo | ziggy_ try running 'aptitude install unrar' at a terminal, then 'unrar /path/to/filename' | 04:17 |

| rj1 | one second spO | 04:17 |
| digitalfiz | kdebase-runtime i mean | 04:17 |
| inveratulo | ziggy_ you might have to "unrar --help" i don't know if I told you 100% correct answer | 04:17 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, so you know, the iso is the Ubuntu 9.10 alternate i386 install. I plan to use this for the server I just got (for free) | 04:17 |
| ziggy_ | ok thanks i'll try | 04:17 |
| ziggy_ | i'll tell you how it goes | 04:18 |
| Ashfire908 | greezmunkey, the output you got isn't vaild, did you set a file for md5sum? | 04:18 |

| MenZa | noobert: Mind your language, please. | 04:19 |
| MenZa | noobert: You want sudo service gdm stop. | 04:19 |
| mrlolplx | sudo killall gdm | 04:20 |
| noobert | mrlolplx: tried that 509 times | 04:20 |
| MenZa | (or something to that extent, I've forgotten how the service thing works) | 04:20 |
| noobert | MenZa: I will try that thanks | 04:20 |
| mrlolplx | then sudo service gdm stop | 04:20 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, It's pretty old, 4 years. Dell Poweredge 600 SC, P4 400MHz sidebus, 2GB RAM, 180Gig HDD's Stock everything else. Should make a pretty good desktop! | 04:20 |
| ziggy_ | yeah i didn't research i didn't have time | 04:20 |
| ziggy_ | sorry | 04:20 |
| MenZa | Alternatively, noobert, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop will work ;) | 04:20 |
| mrlolplx | format C: will work | 04:20 |
| MenZa | But it'll complain at you for stopping a service the 'wrong' way. | 04:20 |
| Ashfire908 | greezmunkey, what command did you run? (exactly what command) | 04:20 |
| Dink | Hmm, sshd does not start automatically even though symlinks are there in rc?.d . No mention of sshd in logs either. | 04:20 |

| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, hmm, my system reads the CD fine though. I was able to browse into it, and when I inserted it that system asked my if I wanted to do an update... | 04:22 |

| Dink | Anyone have any ideas why ssh does not start automatically even though symlinks are in rc?.d ? | 04:23 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, which CD did you test? | 04:23 |
| kinja-sheep | !derivatives | Mac8a | 04:23 |
| ubottu | Mac8a: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information.

| Roasted | guys - ever single time I burn a kubuntu livecd, the cd check finds an error. I've burned it 5 times, using different cds, k3b and brasero, and two different downloaded isos - still fails. wtf? | 04:23 |
| MenZa | Roasted: Burn at low-speed. | 04:24 |
| === massmc is now known as goonbag | ||
| MenZa | Roasted: If it continues to do so, you may have a faulty DVD writer. | 04:24 |
| Billiard1 | Dink: are your symlinks valid? does it start when you use one your your symlinks with start | 04:24 |
| Mac8a | kinja-sheep, thank you for redirecting me | 04:24 |
| rj1 | Roasted: install ubuntu then just install the kubuntu package | 04:24 |
| Dink | Billiard1, yeah. The links are valid. It starts fine when if I manually do it | 04:24 |
| rj1 | if what MenZa said doesnt work | 04:24 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, cuz, I also burned the Live CD, but haven't installed from CD yet so I wasn't sure if I could use it. My preference would be to have the installer ask me about my system one question at a time letting me build the system the way I want it. | 04:24 |
| Roasted | menza - but... I did burn at the slowest speed... every single times... and ubuntu cds burn fine. I find it hard to believe the iso on the kubuntu site is bad, but damn... | 04:24 |
| MenZa | Roasted: It shouldn't be. Have you checked the md5sums? | 04:25 |
| Billiard1 | Dink: which rc?.d is it? | 04:25 |
| MenZa | In any case, Roasted, if your Ubuntu CD works fine, you can simply install the package kubuntu-desktop straight from that, log out, choose Kubuntu as your session, and you're good to go. | 04:25 |
| Roasted | menza - I have the md5 of the ISO before burning, but I dont know how to check the md5 of an already finished live cd. | 04:25 |
| === jerald is now known as prappl93 | ||
| rj1 | MenZa: ninjad | 04:25 |
| greezmunkey | Ashfire908, I think I'll google this md5sum business so I have it down going forward. It sounds like a good tool to have. | 04:26 |
| Roasted | menza maybe Ill do that with ubuntu installing the kubuntu desktop. Is that a bad idea though or is it still solid? | 04:26 |
| MenZa | Roasted: Hrm, I know you can do so from Linux, (dd if=/dev/cdrom0 | md5sum), but no idea if you can do it from Windows. | 04:26 |
| MenZa | !md5sum | greezmunkey | 04:26 |
| ubottu | greezmunkey: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 04:26 |

| ghw | 9.10 i want to know about inittab | 04:26 |

| wolf23 | somebody help please! can anyone help please, is there a way to make my keyboard buttons typing with sound? | 04:26 |
| MenZa | rj1: You can remove the GTK/GNOME packages, though :) | 04:26 |
| Dink | Billiard1, S*ssh files are in 2,3,4 and K*ssh files are in rc1 | 04:26 |
| Jamed | ghw: there is no more inittab in 9.10 | 04:27 |

| ziggy_ | sudo aptitude install rar unrar | 04:27 |
| ziggy_ | this one works better | 04:27 |
| rj1 | MenZa: in my experience trying to remove those is like trying to pull teeth | 04:27 |
| MenZa | Roasted: Not at all :) | 04:27 |

| Roasted | menza - question... if I install karmic, along with the kubuntu desktop... but I want to check out gnome shell with ubuntu... will installing gnome shell (to the best that you know) effect the kubuntu side of things? Because I'm trying to use gnome shell more, despite the fact so far I hate it, but I want to use kubuntu more too in case I want to switch to it if gnome shell actually launches in time. | 04:29 |

| LinuxFreakD | on UNR 9.10 how do I switch to classic desktop? | 04:30 |
| inveratulo | billiard1, maybe i'm dumb or lucky-- but in ubuntu i always just started a service e.g. /etc/init/ssh start after installing it via apt-get and it would automaticallys tart on that runlevel every time after, never had to play around with my rc stuff | 04:30 |
| Ashfire | Sorry, who was I talking to? | 04:30 |
| jongbergs | LinuxFreakD: what do you want to do exactly? | 04:31 |
| Billiard1 | inveratulo: ssh should be automatically set up yeah | 04:31 |
| ziggy_ | so yeah i can open the first one but the software isn't smart to go to the next file when there 1 to 2 | 04:31 |
| Ashfire | My system took a nose dive. | 04:31 |
| LinuxFreakD | jongbergs, I want to change it from the clutter desktop style to the original classic desktop | 04:31 |

| ziggy_ | and works correctly | 04:31 |

| rj1 | and are you SURE it doesnt pick it up? | 04:32 |
| rj1 | or did you just not try to extract | 04:32 |
| Dink | Billiard1, I should have paid more attention at what point it stopped | 04:32 |
| Billiard1 | Dink: idk thats odd | 04:32 |
| Dink | Billiard1, I agree would help if something was in the logs about it not starting | 04:32 |
| ziggy_ | \ok one moment | 04:33 |
| Dink | hmm maybe next time I should do an interactive start up or something to see if it even tries to start up ssh | 04:33 |

| jlilly | I can telnet to the port just fine from the machine. | 05:04 |
| wolf23 | Billiard: i try gfceu it works fine if i disactivate the sound,but with sound it freez the gfceu program, why? | 05:04 |
| jrtroberts | sounds like sound driver issues... | 05:05 |
| inveratulo | jlilly can you even ping your hostname from the remote host? | 05:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | Silent_Echo, just install Ubuntu onto your external drive... rather straight forward to this point. if you want to be able to select it at bios you'll need to install Grub onto the drive as well (this was an option in 9.04, not sure about 9.10 but i imagine it's still available in the install hidden somewhere) | 05:05 |
| rj1 | wolf23 try asking #alsa, im not too sure | 05:05 |
| jlilly | inveratulo: yes, both ping and curl work for it. | 05:05 |
| Silent_Echo | ZykoticK9: laymans terms please? | 05:05 |
| Billiard | wolf23: idk | 05:06 |
| inveratulo | jlilly funky, what if you set something else up just to test, like telnet on port 23 | 05:06 |
| jlilly | inveratulo: I can telnet to 22 just fine. | 05:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | Silent_Echo, during the install it asks you what drive to use -- point it to the external drive (be sure you're not installing to wrong drive!) | 05:06 |
| Silent_Echo | kk | 05:06 |
| jongieboy | jongbergs: hello my friend! | 05:07 |
| digitalfiz | is the only solution to the mouse click problem in flash to turn compiz off? | 05:07 |

| Hilikus | digitalfiz: what's the mouse click problem? | 05:07 |
| Hilikus | ZykoticK9: cool, thanks | 05:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | Silent_Echo, that part is a little more complicated, not sure how 9.10 deals with it actually, haven't tried it yet | 05:08 |
| jongbergs | jongieboy: how's your system right now? | 05:08 |
| inveratulo | jlilly what if you nmap -vv your host? | 05:08 |
| Silent_Echo | ZykoticK9: how would you go about it in 9.04? | 05:08 |
| jongieboy | it's running fine, testing with NFS now..hw bout u? | 05:09 |
| digitalfiz | Hilikus, there is a mouse click problem for flash in 64bit ubuntu | 05:09 |
| Hilikus | digitalfiz: what's the problem? | 05:09 |
| jlilly | inveratulo: didn't notice the port in question at first, but appears to be throttled now. | 05:10 |
| digitalfiz | Hilikus, mouse click doesnt work :P | 05:10 |
| yang_ | so can some1 help me with CLL and TUI's there is no window manager so how can i have mulitple open? I am not supposed to use jobs am I? | 05:10 |
| Hilikus | digitalfiz: hmmm i was having that problem and it was killing me. didn't think it was a known bug | 05:10 |
| fzaurus | ee | 05:10 |
| digitalfiz | Hilikus, think i found another solution | 05:10 |
| Hilikus | digitalfiz: what about the opensource player? i switched to it, didn't like it but it might work for you | 05:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | Silent_Echo, do you have a 9.04 or 9.10 install cd? | 05:11 |
| jlilly | hmm. suppose I'll try the web console. looks like I got shut out. | 05:11 |
| Silent_Echo | ZykoticK9: 9.10 cd yes | 05:11 |
| digitalfiz | Hilikus, ill have to try that this last fix didnt work i dont think hehe | 05:11 |
| inveratulo | jlilly odd. this is a colo'd box? | 05:11 |
| jlilly | inveratulo: slicehost. | 05:11 |
| yang_ | anybody? | 05:12 |
| Hilikus | digitalfiz: do you have more info on the bug? are they working on it? do they know what's the problem? | 05:12 |
| inveratulo | jlilly Hmm. Might want to consult someone at slicehost they could have some firewall rules that are blocking your virt | 05:12 |
| digitalfiz | Hilikus, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8276784&postcount=6 | 05:12 |
| digitalfiz | that worked for me | 05:12 |
| jlilly | inveratulo: I'll say I doubt it, b/c they're typically pretty good about that. but I'll check. | 05:13 |
| jlilly | thanks for all the help. | 05:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | Silent_Echo, i'm starting an install in a VM, give me a couple of minutes | 05:13 |
| inveratulo | jlilly good luck | 05:13 |

| benc1 | Billiard: ffmpeg -i in.ogv out.mp4 wil this work? | 05:17 |
| rj1 | superpaco666 wrong channel | 05:17 |
| rj1 | switchgirl be more specific | 05:18 |
| superpaco666 | well is a general question a dictionary file only | 05:18 |
| switchgirl | ok | 05:18 |
| Billiard | benc1: it may work, what formats are the audio and video, mp4 cant take anything | 05:18 |
| superpaco666 | could be any one | 05:18 |
| Billiard | superpaco666: google | 05:18 |
| superpaco666 | I just do not find a good one | 05:18 |
| switchgirl | i cant load xorg-xserver on my machine | 05:18 |
| rance94 | can somebody help me run some code of assembly how do i run it from terminal ????? | 05:18 |
| switchgirl | (virtual machine) | 05:18 |
| superpaco666 | well the google ones are not good... | 05:18 |
| Billiard | superpaco666: you can download a dictionary from the repos | 05:18 |
| switchgirl | ubuntu studio | 05:18 |
| superpaco666 | let me google repos | 05:19 |
| Roasted | I installed kubuntu desktop on top of my ubuntu machine. When I boot to kubuntu, I get the kde background along with a terminal - thats it. :( What can I dooooooooo | 05:19 |
| superpaco666 | one sec | 05:19 |
| rj1 | rance94 ....I thought we agreed you were going to stick with python. you cant run assembly directly from the terminal | 05:19 |
| benc1 | Billiard: I've capture a video using gtk-recordmydesktop and now I want to paly it on windows | 05:19 |
| inveratulo | rance94, python is your friend, tons of resources on the net too | 05:19 |
| switchgirl | same here with ubntu studio Roasted | 05:19 |
| Billiard | benc1: media player classic should be able to play it in windows | 05:19 |
| benc1 | Billiard: not sure what format I need | 05:19 |
| rlee | What's the default run level for ubuntu ? | 05:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | Silent_Echo1, it's basically the same in 9.04 & 9.10 - for my steps see http://paste.ubuntu.com/322158/ it's pretty straight forward - you are sure you system can boot use right? | 05:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | Silent_Echo1, s/use/usb | 05:20 |
| Silent_Echo1 | ZykoticK9: boot use? | 05:20 |
| superpaco666 | what is repos | 05:20 |
| superpaco666 | I got a repurshase agrement | 05:20 |
| rance94 | inveratulo how do i run asm code? | 05:20 |
| Billiard | benc1: i would make it an mkv and install an mkv splitter on the windows machine or use media player classic | 05:20 |
| Roasted | switchgirl - no idea on a fix? | 05:20 |
| jlilly | inveratulo: I think the issue was I had a denyhosts daemon on, which was blocking me. | 05:20 |
| jlilly | but its now fixed. | 05:20 |
| GodfatherofEire | Guys, any ideas what could be causing ZSNES to segfault every time I try to load a ROM? | 05:20 |
| Billiard | superpaco666: the package manager there is a word list | 05:20 |
| benc1 | Billiard: thanks | 05:20 |
| Silent_Echo1 | ZykoticK9: no....how can i check | 05:21 |
| inveratulo | jlilly awesome :) | 05:21 |
| plustax | GodfatherofEire sounds like a rom path issue | 05:21 |
| switchgirl | Roasted: startx | 05:21 |
| switchgirl | you have a terminal? | 05:21 |
| GodfatherofEire | plustax, probably | 05:21 |
| switchgirl | Roasted: ? | 05:21 |
| superpaco666 | hoo I just know synaptic let me play with repos | 05:21 |
| Aegnuddel | Why would using su and typing my password give me an authentication failure when sudo works fine? | 05:21 |
| Silent_Echo1 | ZykoticK9: i'll try now and if i cant/run into a problem i'll come back for help | 05:21 |
| Hilikus | Aegnuddel: root login is disabled probably | 05:22 |
| Roasted | switchgirl - fatal server error, server is already running... too bad its not :/ | 05:22 |
| switchgirl | ok | 05:22 |
| rww | Aegnuddel: because su is asking for the root account password, and the root account is disabled by default on Ubuntu | 05:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | Silent_Echo1, if it's a modern system it probably can, only way to check would be test with a bootable usb key OR check BIOS OR check documentation of motherboard | 05:22 |
| inveratulo | rance94, depends on which platform, but seriously, avoid assembly unless its like for school or work | 05:22 |

| rance94 | inveratulo but ppl write viruses in it and i would like to see why | 05:22 |

| ripthejacker | xine-engine | 05:24 |
| switchgirl | try that and then startx | 05:24 |
| inveratulo | rance94 Well its probably because assembly is a low level language and can easily manipulate file headers and lower level file operations | 05:24 |
| Roasted | switchgirl - same error when I run startx | 05:24 |
| Aegnuddel | nope that doesn't work | 05:24 |

| ZykoticK9 | dewayne, does you NM applet say "Not managed"? | 05:43 |
| superpaco666 | ho ok | 05:43 |
| _-XPERT-_ | dewayne: wat problem? | 05:43 |
| dewayne | I don't know what NM applet is? | 05:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | dewayne, Network Manager - you said you're using wicd, sorry i've never used it can't help with that one sorry | 05:44 |
| dewayne | I can connect to the net DHCP but iwhen I use my statci IP it does not connect | 05:44 |
| Billiard | dewayne: are you using a static ip in the correct subnet, are you also setting the gateway and dns | 05:44 |
| Andorin | Can Ubuntu only make live environments on a flash drive for Ubuntu distros? I'm trying it with a Fedora iso and it won't work. | 05:44 |
| dewayne | yes | 05:45 |
| jongbergs | superpaco666: fantasdic is just a front-end, you need to install the above packages, and configure fantasdic to listen to localhost instead of the default dictionary.org | 05:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | dewayne, be sure you have DNS info populated in your /etc/resolve.conf when you're using static IP | 05:45 |
| dewayne | and under ifconig they show up correct | 05:45 |
| superpaco666 | hooo ok | 05:45 |
| Billiard | dewayne: can you ping the gateway? | 05:45 |
| dewayne | zykotic.. do I need to edit that file? | 05:45 |
| dewayne | yes I can ping it | 05:45 |
| Billiard | dewayne: can you ping googles ip? | 05:46 |
| isolat3dsh33p | guys, need help with wireless connection problem.. | 05:46 |
| dewayne | yes I can.. | 05:46 |
| Billiard | isolat3dsh33p: whats the prob | 05:46 |
| Billiard | dewayne: so its a dns prob? | 05:46 |
| dewayne | I don't think so.. I have placed those IP in as well | 05:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | dewayne, in you don't have NET then you might have to manually edit it. when you are using dhcp do a "cat /etc/resolv.conf" then compare it when you're set to Static IP! i'm guessing they won't be the same. | 05:46 |
| Billiard | dewayne: well you can ping googles ip but not google.com ? | 05:47 |
| dewayne | ok.. let me try.. | 05:47 |
| Aegnuddel | maybe I am thinking of a macro | 05:47 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Billiard, my connection is crappy, it's crappy in XP as well but not as crappy in Ubuntu 9.10. I need to refresh few times to load a webpage. P/s: I've disabled IPv6 | 05:47 |
| dewayne | I can ping it either way | 05:47 |
| Billiard | dewayne: what is the prob then? | 05:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | dewayne, if you can ping by google.com then you have network | 05:48 |
| dewayne | I can not connect to the web through firefox.. | 05:48 |
| Andorin | I'm trying to create a live environment on my flash drive for Fedora 12, using Ubuntu's USB Startup Disk Creator. The program reads my Karmic iso, but doesn't seem to recognize the Fedora iso. Does this program only work on Ubuntu distros? | 05:48 |
| Billiard | isolat3dsh33p: poor signal? | 05:48 |
| dewayne | firefox finds the web when I am DHCP, it can not when I go to the static.. | 05:49 |
| freaky[t] | what is better - screenlets or desklets? | 05:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | !best > freaky[t] | 05:49 |
| dewayne | I have no idea what this problme can be | 05:49 |

| dewayne | opps week | 05:49 |
| Billiard | isolat3dsh33p: other networks on the same channel? | 05:49 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Billiard, but the wireless connection is 48% | 05:49 |
| Aegnuddel | to chew, I recommend chiclets, truth be told :P | 05:49 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Billiard, what do u mean? LAN? | 05:50 |
| Billiard | dewayne: only firefox has a problem? | 05:50 |
| Billiard | isolat3dsh33p: no other wireless networks in the area? | 05:50 |
| dewayne | I don't have any other browser to find out.. | 05:50 |
| Billiard | dewayne: well you can use wget? | 05:50 |
| dewayne | yes.. | 05:51 |
| dewayne | in a terminal mode | 05:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | dewayne, does apt-get work? | 05:51 |

| Billiard | isolat3dsh33p: well could be poor wireless drivers in ubuntu, you said its bad in windows too, maybe its a poor quality router or card | 05:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | !pastbin > dewayne | 05:53 |
| the_beav | maybe some common unix stuff here...but i want to make one user's vbox's avail to everyone, (i am admin), is there an easy way to do this? | 05:53 |

| ripthejacker | Billiard: i need to play amr files | 05:54 |
| Billiard | ripthejacker: what is an amr | 05:54 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Billiard, it's far better in XP. In XP I dont need to refresh multiple times. How do i check my internet device? | 05:54 |
| ripthejacker | Billiard: well its the format in which sounds are recorded in mobile phones | 05:54 |
| Billiard | ripthejacker: install restricted extras package ? | 05:55 |
| fzaurus | Why can't I never validate a SSL certificate? | 05:55 |
| ripthejacker | Billiard: yes | 05:55 |
| qp_pq | but have configured distcc | 05:55 |
| qp_pq | I configured for 3 machines | 05:55 |
| Snausages | Billiard: adaptive multirate recording. it's part of 3gp. | 05:55 |
| qp_pq | and now I see distcc doesn't do any lload on those other 2 machines | 05:55 |
| ripthejacker | Billiard: i need to play it in amarok | 05:55 |
| qp_pq | which would suggest that it wasn't configured correctly | 05:55 |
| qp_pq | and CC=distcc ./configure | 05:55 |
| qp_pq | and make -j 10 | 05:55 |
| qp_pq | any ideas on this ? | 05:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | !enter > qp_pq | 05:55 |
| ubottu | qp_pq, please see my private message | 05:55 |
| Billiard | ripthejacker: not really a solution, but you might be able to convert with ffmpeg | 05:55 |
| ripthejacker | Billiard: ohh | 05:56 |
| ripthejacker | kk | 05:56 |
| Billiard | isolat3dsh33p: check your internet device? | 05:56 |
| ripthejacker | Billiard: kk | 05:56 |
| ripthejacker | Billiard: thnks i think i have to find a solution myself | 05:56 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Billiard, how? | 05:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | qp_pq, when i used distcc years ago there was a gui that showed how it was working across the machines - is that even still around? might help ya if it is. good luck man. distcc - brings back memories of gentoo | 05:57 |
| Billiard | isolat3dsh33p: idk what you want to check? | 05:57 |
| akav | Basic question here: how do you choose which network connection to use for internet connectivity? | 05:58 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Billiard, nvm. Thanks anyway. :) | 05:58 |
| akav | the network control panel doesn't have much. | 05:58 |
| the_beav | akav: network manager gui? | 05:58 |
| qp_pq | ZykoticK9: :) | 05:58 |
| qp_pq | ZykoticK9: Im gonna search for the gui, my logs show nothing | 05:58 |
| the_beav | akav: what are you trying to do exactly? | 05:58 |
| akav | the_beav, switch to ethernet cable from wireless. | 05:59 |
| the_beav | akav, when it says enable networking/enable wireless...i think if you uncheck "enable networking", wireless will be it's only option | 05:59 |
| dewayne | can anyone see me? | 05:59 |
| akav | the_beav, looks like tray applet may have solved it. | 05:59 |
| shyam_k | interestingly i can't see partition listing on installing ubuntu netbook remix on aspire one | 06:00 |

| akav | the_beav, the "Network Connections" pref app just isn't very helpful. | 06:00 |
| the_beav | akav, you can apt-get install wicd | 06:00 |
| the_beav | akav, just an alternative, helps some people a great deal | 06:01 |
| dewayne | can anyone see me now? | 06:01 |
| the_beav | akav, but it won't auto start the first time, you'll have to load it from applications menu | 06:01 |
| TimBB | I installed phpsysinfo using apt get whats the url to it? | 06:01 |
| shyam_k | df has nothing to say about a 160gb partition on the netbook | 06:01 |
| digitalfiz | yourserver.com/phpsysinfo should be TimBB | 06:01 |
| Billiard | dewayne: if you conncted we can probably see you | 06:02 |
| TimBB | The requested URL /phpsysinfo was not found on this server. | 06:02 |

| the_beav | dewayne, if you can see us, we can probably see u | 06:02 |
| dewayne | I have been a week one this .. it is getting to me.. | 06:02 |
| dewayne | I can not figure it out at all | 06:03 |
| the_beav | dewayne, whats the prob | 06:03 |
| Zaiden | Is it at all possible to use Ubunu without Pulseaudio? | 06:03 |
| dewayne | I can connect on DHCP but when I put my static IP in I can not.. I can ping the static and all that.. no internet connection | 06:03 |
| chetnick | hi, there used to be emerald themes pack in synaptic ... i cant seem to find it anymore. Is it removed? | 06:04 |
| the_beav | dewayne, i understand, but, how is this causing you problems? just curious | 06:05 |
| dewayne | This is going to be my server.. I needthe static IP to run Moodle on it | 06:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | Zaiden, at this point its very difficult and not really recommended to try and extract pulse from Ubuntu, we the users sorta have to live with it. FYI Xubuntu doesn't use pulse, i have a Playstation emulator who's sound will only work under Xubuntu. Good luck man. | 06:05 |
| Billiard | dewayne: you said you had an internet connection, and could ping google | 06:06 |
| dewayne | yes under DHCP not static IP | 06:06 |
| Billiard | dewayne: omg | 06:06 |
| Zaiden | Doesn't seem like there's a Gnome Distro that doesn't use Pulse | 06:07 |
| Billiard | dewayne: we were asking about when it was being faulty not when it is working | 06:07 |
| chetnick | dewayne: that is rally wierd on ubunut, it's tightly integrated with Network Manager. That is one of the things i dislike on Ubuntu. | 06:07 |
| chetnick | dewayne: did you put you gateway address correctly? | 06:07 |

| greenmanwitch | mmcji: are you a cowboy? | 06:20 |
| Blue1 | ZykoticK9: Installed: 1.60-1.1 | 06:21 |
| mmcji | well, I am attempting to setup two 28" monitors. I have never attempted a dual monitor configuration before. | 06:21 |
| greenmanwitch | mmcji: should look sweeeet with a nice twm | 06:21 |
| greenmanwitch | mmcji: wish i was that rich :( | 06:21 |
| mmcji | I have a dell latitude E5500 with a docking station that has 1 HDMI and 1 VGA interfaces on it. | 06:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | Blue1, your way behind lol -- the one in the Ubuntu repo has been broken for weeks http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/ and install the 1.63 deb and you should be good to go. OH YA, uninstall one from Repo first and you also have to logout after the new install before it seems to work? | 06:22 |
| mmcji | lol, we are building a NOC and we will have six of these setups, that is if I can figure the dual monitor configuration out. | 06:22 |

| Blue1 | ZykoticK9: i need a 64 bit version that looks like only 32 there | 06:24 |
| mmcji | joao, have you clicked on the mixer button after clicking on the volume icon? | 06:24 |
| ^c|0ud^ | is there any apps for ubuntu that will make an iso image? | 06:24 |

| joao | where is the mixer button? | 06:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | Blue1, ? strange i'm running 64 bit OS too? don't remember having to force the install but perhaps i did??? | 06:25 |
| mmcji | 1st, click on the volume icon | 06:25 |
| joao | yes, just did | 06:26 |
| mmcji | when the volume selector opens up, at the bottom of the selector there is a button called mixer | 06:26 |

| SonicFreak94 | Hi, I have a pretty annoying problem here. I had Ubuntu installed and working for a while, everything running fine, then it just stopped working. I'd get a blank screen at startup and a login loop. I've since re-installed ubuntu, and the problem stopped... until I installed the Nvidia 173 drivers. | 06:45 |
| brijith | moin wini comes with out any theme.. I followed this to install moin wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/moinmoin.html | 06:46 |
| SonicFreak94 | I'm using a GeForce FX5200 AGP, and whenever I install that driver, Ubuntu stops booting up completely, and gives me a split-second text login screen, then goes blank, and keeps looping. | 06:46 |
| Jetsetlemming1 | Changing the settings in the root access nautilus worked. Thanks for the advice | 06:46 |
| SonicFreak94 | Does anyone know of any easy solutions? | 06:46 |

| Madpilot | ubottu, root | rhett | 06:53 |
| ubottu | rhett: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 06:53 |
| indus | vagothcpp: windows is not meant to boot from usb :) but it boots from floppy though hehe | 06:53 |

| Madpilot | rhett, mainly, using sudo means only one password for everyone to remember. Also, locked root account means one less attack avenue | 06:55 |

| ZykoticK9 | greezmunkey, "written the output into a file" <- that would be called an ISO (which can be created by using "cat" and outputting to a file as you said) which is probably what you started with. | 07:49 |
| greezmunkey | ZykoticK9, heh you're right!, I could read the contents of the burnt cd back onto the HDD, then checksum it again, brilliant! | 07:51 |

| powertool08 | greezmunkey: Stupid question here. There is absolutely no way to use samba without having ports 139/445 open correct? With all the samba/rpc exploits which come out fairly often I'm hesitant to leave these open. | 08:23 |
| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, yikes! whay do you need all of that? | 08:24 |
| Ascavasaion | greezmunkey: Pidgin is opening most of them hehe | 08:25 |
| powertool08 | greezmunkey: afaik, the only defenses are filtering with iptables to allow expected lan hosts, and firewalling the wan connection to block all netbios type traffic. Any other/better ways to secure? | 08:25 |
| greezmunkey | powertool08, I thought netbios was a non routeable protocol...or is that the other one? | 08:26 |
| greezmunkey | net something | 08:27 |
| powertool08 | greezmunkey: I'm not sure. I just feel like I'm opening myself up to insecurities of windows when I have samba running. | 08:27 |
| * Ascavasaion realised that he is never going to actually get Samba working is he? | 08:28 | |
| greezmunkey | powertool08, about all you have to worry about are other users on your LAN, but you can secure against that too. | 08:28 |
| powertool08 | Ascavasaion: Don't say that, I have it working in a crippled state. | 08:28 |
| whammo | is there a how-to on purging pulse and reinstalling alsa? | 08:28 |
| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, What is the situation with the samba server, is this to be a production box, or just for home use? | 08:29 |
| ironfoot495 | Hi what is the command for installing xubuntu on 9.10 | 08:29 |
| Ascavasaion | powertool08: I have been crippled in trying to fix it. Either I am the dumbest person ever, or Samba is flawed. | 08:29 |
| powertool08 | greezmunkey: Easier said than done... I have better computing habits than the infested machines which are sometimes connected (friends/family) | 08:29 |

| Ascavasaion | greezmunkey: Home use... want to listen to music on an old Windows machine which is getting the music off this computer (the Linux box) | 08:30 |
| powertool08 | rubydiamond: Look into 'check install' and next time it will uninstall through the pkg manager. | 08:30 |
| powertool08 | Ascavasaion: Like myself, you probably just need to spend some more time with it. | 08:31 |
| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, so you want the Winbox to play the files stored on you Linbox, like over the LAN? | 08:31 |

| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, what old Winbox? | 08:31 |

| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, change that. The [homes] directory will let you get there. path = %S is all you need... | 08:58 |

| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, then in windows, map network drive, make sure that the windows logon matches the unix logon. If it doesn't than check connect as a differant user, and supply a user/pass that you set up with smbpasswd -s | 08:59 |

| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, did you get it to open? | 09:39 |
| rww | anarcap: ah, perhaps, then. I used to have problems until newer version of my video drivers, perhaps you have a different issue | 09:39 |
| Ascavasaion | aaaah, welcome back greezmunkey | 09:39 |
| wesley | slaw what sound server are you using? | 09:39 |
| rww | rebel_kid: interesting. What's the output of "ps -A | grep gdm"? | 09:39 |
| Ascavasaion | greezmunkey: I clicked system>Administration>users | 09:39 |
| rww | rebel_kid: assuming you want to troubleshoot it and don't just want it gone. If you just want it gone, killing it should do that ;) | 09:40 |

| Ascavasaion | greezmunkey: and then? | 09:40 |
| anarcap | rww - you had a problem with just flash, and it was your video card drivers? | 09:40 |

| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, did you add user joel to it? | 09:41 |

| Lord-Readman | hello, when installing ubuntu it used to create a swap, but now it just does a use full disk by default, is there any advantage of making a 4GB swap if you have 4GB of ram, and also any advantage of making a 250mb /boot/ partition at the beginning of the disk so it loads faster? | 09:43 |
| rww | Concretesledge: specifically from what to what? | 09:43 |
| FunkyWeasel | Morning | 09:43 |
| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, in a term, go to your home directory | 09:43 |
| Concretesledge | from ubuntu karmic koala, to 7evenOS | 09:43 |
| rebel_kid | anyone have an experience with nvidia cards not going above 640x480 after upgrading to 9.10? | 09:43 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Lord-Readman, yes there is an advantage | 09:44 |
| Concretesledge | rww its really nice, it uses karmic sources.. | 09:44 |
| wesley | slaw - I'll need to do some reading about sound in linux and 9.10 before I can help you. | 09:44 |
| simplexio | rebel_kid: you probably have vesa driver in use, try nvidia driver | 09:44 |
| Dallas | Rebe;_kid:you probably need to get the drivers. | 09:44 |
| Dallas | anyone able to help get the graphics going on a dell mini 10? | 09:44 |
| Lord-Readman | b3rz3rk3r, to the swap? or the /boot/ or both? | 09:44 |
| Ascavasaion | greezmunkey: I am in my home directory. | 09:44 |
| wesley | slaw - maybe ask one of the other lads or lasses in here if they can help you now. sorry. | 09:44 |
| rww | Lord-Readman: If you want to use hibernation, you need a swap size equal to or larger than the memory in use, so it's advisable to create a swap partition a little bigger than your system memory if you need it. | 09:44 |
| plustax | I have my laptop plugged into my tv right now with hdmi. I am using ubuntu 9.10 how do I get it working? | 09:44 |
| rww | Concretesledge: You'd want to ask them about it. We don't support Ubuntu derivatives here. | 09:44 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Lord-Readman, most people seem to agree that a swap just slightly larger than your installed RAM is the best idea | 09:44 |
| rebel_kid | simplexio: i have installed the nivida driver with the restricted driver installer, no affect, i have also used nvidias install script from their page. again no affect | 09:44 |

| FunkyWeasel | I've found pulseaudio periodically crashes and I need to reboot to sort the problem - pulseaudio will not restart and the PulseAudio Device Choser fails to connect. Is there a less Windows-y solution than the 3-finger-salute? | 09:44 |
| Concretesledge | rww ok. thank you | 09:45 |
| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, sudo chgrp -hR nobody Music | 09:45 |
| FunkyWeasel | Oh, yes, running ibex. | 09:45 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Lord-Readman, mainly to due with performace and saving, i dont think that it would assist with boot too much | 09:45 |
| Lord-Readman | ok, so if i did 5000mb for 4096mb of ram, that would be fine, what about doing 250mb for /boot/ and putting it at the beginning of the disk? | 09:45 |
| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, make sure that you type in the proper directory name for music | 09:45 |
| om26er | lord-re | 09:45 |
| Lord-Readman | yes? | 09:46 |
| rww | Lord-Readman: I do that for /boot/, but it's unlikely to make a noticible speed difference. | 09:46 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Lord-Readman, yes that would be fine. as for boot, im really not too sure if that would actually ame diference | 09:46 |

| anarcap | Would I lose any performance by installing 32-bit ubuntu on my 64-bit Intel HP? Does the 64-bit really make a difference? | 09:48 |
| Lord-Readman | rww, b3rz3rk3r what do you think to putting /boot/ on a small usb pen drive? then it will have flash speeds? | 09:48 |
| were | Question, is there a way to transfer files from ubuntu pc to windows pc through internet? some software perhaps if anyone knows | 09:48 |
| rww | Lord-Readman: USB drives are slower than hard disks | 09:48 |
| greezmunkey | Ascavasaion, in your smb.conf file remove the [Shared] section entirely for now, and then restart samba | 09:48 |

| Lord-Readman | ah ok | 09:49 |
| rww | Lord-Readman: additionally, you appear to be overestimating the amount of time it takes to load the contents of /boot/ into memory. It really doesn't take that long, so you're not going to save much time by optimizing it. | 09:49 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Lord-Readman, you are better off getting yourself a 10,000rpm HDD, or a nice SDD | 09:49 |

| ubottu | mary__: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 12:14 |
| mary__ | thanks | 12:15 |
| nere | erUSUL any specific configurations need to be done in filezilla server ? I really never used it before | 12:15 |

| Pichi | I wanna install Ubuntu | 12:25 |
| Pichi | I have th e8.10 version | 12:25 |
| Pichi | BUt have a RIva TNT video card | 12:25 |
| Pichi | Will this work? | 12:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Pichi: sure | 12:25 |
| kostkon | mrXX, in the input tab, do you have a "connector" drop down menu? | 12:25 |
| Pichi | I know there are some issues | 12:25 |
| mrXX | koston http://uppix.net/9/2/3/5cc53a1754683957c3f9642af6f36.png | 12:25 |
| Pichi | Like 3d is not supported | 12:26 |
| Halitech | Pichi, should work but you'll need to set up the video card manually | 12:26 |
| mrXX | koston no, plz see the pic | 12:26 |
| Pichi | Yeah i saw some tutorials | 12:26 |
| nere | erUSUL wow it connected, and a folder was opened in ubuntu but how do I add a file to it? | 12:26 |
| Pichi | I am pretty novice | 12:26 |
| mrXX | koston am i missing some library? | 12:26 |
| Pichi | Should I install Ubuntu with XP or wipe xp out?> | 12:26 |
| Pichi | I have an old Pentium 3 700 mhz 256 mb ram | 12:27 |
| kostkon | mrXX, ok. is this a clean install? | 12:27 |
| Halitech | Pichi, I installed it on a machine with the same card, gave me 800x600, manually edited xorg and got 1024x768 | 12:27 |
| mrXX | koston what is a clean install? this is all what i had from the beginning of ubunut, i haven't added anything else | 12:27 |
| Pichi | Hope it works for me | 12:27 |
| Halitech | Pichi, I would probably grab the 9.04 alternate install cd and do a minimal install and add LXDE instead of Ubuntu | 12:28 |
| Pichi | What about sound cards, I have a Genius 5.1 | 12:28 |
| kostkon | mrXX, i mean, did you upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10? | 12:28 |
| Hans_Henrik | i have XP/Ubuntu multiboot, you really cant get WoW/CS/Prototype/Knight Online to run flawless on ubuntu :( | 12:28 |

| haenet5 | faisal | 12:29 |
| kostkon | mrXX, oh, it's an upgrade. right | 12:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Pichi: the open driver supports your card and comes as part of a standard install, you could try the nvidia-glx-71 driver but I am not sure | 12:29 |
| Pichi | Thank you so much | 12:29 |
| Pichi | I hope I can play soime of the games as well | 12:29 |
| Pichi | *some | 12:29 |
| mrXX | koston i mean, previously i had 904, then i download the 910 and installed | 12:29 |
| mrXX | koston maybe it is a new install | 12:30 |
| kostkon | mrXX, ah | 12:30 |
| histo | Pichi:based on your specs I would recomend xubuntu or something lighter | 12:30 |
| kostkon | mrXX, eh, you could check your hardware volume levels. | 12:30 |
| Halitech | mrXX, did you download the alternate install cd or the normal desktop cd? | 12:30 |
| kostkon | mrXX, install "gnome-alsamixer" | 12:30 |
| histo | Pichi: you will be more satisfied with the performance. | 12:30 |
| mrXX | koston what is the terminal code to install it? | 12:31 |
| isolat3dsh33p | guys, how can i enable the desktop effect that lets me move a window by just pushing it to the side? | 12:31 |
| Halitech | histo, xubuntu isn't much lighter then ubuntu anymore | 12:31 |
| mrXX | koston i already have the alsamixer in mine | 12:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Pichi: if you have ubuntu installed you can install xubuntu-desktop for lighter versions of the apps you have | 12:31 |
| histo | Halitech: sure it is. Xfce compaired to gnome is still a huge difference. | 12:31 |
| Pichi | i'LL PLY MORE WITH THE LIVCE CD FIRST | 12:31 |
| kostkon | mrXX, sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer. you could use synaptic. | 12:31 |
| histo | Pichi: k its easy to switch in the future.You can multiple desktop environments installed at the same time and switch between them. | 12:32 |
| tim | when i compile a program ,i get mistake tha "find not lposix4"?what should i do? | 12:32 |
| Hiram | does anybody know about rolling a deb pkg from downloaded src code? | 12:32 |
| histo | Hiram: check-install will do that. | 12:32 |
| Halitech | histo, XFCE is lighter then Gnome but Xubuntu includes alot of things Ubuntu has so the full desktop isn't much lighter, doing a minimal install of XFCE will be lighter but not Xubuntu | 12:32 |
| histo | Hiram: sry package is checkinstall | 12:33 |

| ActionParsnip | U-b-u-n-t-u: you shouldnt | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm 9.10 dosent rename the filesystems. it just mounts them using the UUID i think as their name - if theres no label. instead of 'disk' and 'disk1' and so forth | 12:34 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | ty | 12:34 |
| spongebob | argh I'm getting ~40/70 signal strength on my ath5k but random performance. sometimes it's fast, sometimes its slow.. | 12:34 |
| histo | Hiram: to use it you just run the ./configure and the make but you use checkinstall instead of install. It creates a deb for it. it will walk you through the creation of the deb like naming it etc... | 12:34 |

| kostkon | mrXX, do you still get 0 signal level? | 12:38 |
| cankoy | tim: there's no posix4 lib for Linux, I already told you, you're trying to build some app that does not target Linux (or you've misconfigured the build) | 12:38 |
| kostkon | mrXX, in sound prefs | 12:38 |
| mrXX | spongebob lol, it is from the laptop, | 12:38 |
| kajo | I upgraded to 9.10... while this update caused my mic to start working, it now refuses to mute; this caused a terrible feedback first time I started it. My only options now are to mute the sound or use headphones; what can I do about this? I just need to mute the mic. Clicking 'mute' makes the meter show nothing, but the sound still comes through... | 12:38 |

| ThistleWeb | hey guys, I have a problem with xubuntu, compiz and my panel can anyone help? | 12:56 |
| Julia_ | what should I do? | 12:56 |
| spongebob | ActionParsnip, It takes longer than click>click>type password>connect... esp if you're on the move :) | 12:56 |
| ActionParsnip | ThistleWeb: can you expand please | 12:56 |
| ActionParsnip | spongebob: i just prefer it, i find it quicker, plus I dont have to run nm needlessly | 12:56 |
| ActionParsnip | spongebob: its good for low level users though | 12:57 |
| bongoman | hallo schönen tag allerseits! hab n kleines problem: nutze fluxbox und will nicht dass der gnome-power-manager läuft, wie kann ich den deaktivieren? | 12:57 |
| mrXX | has anyone had their acer mic working in ubuntu? | 12:57 |
| spongebob | ActionParsnip, to each his own :) | 12:57 |
| bongoman | oh sorry | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | spongebob: indeed | 12:57 |
| ashish | i can help u | 12:57 |
| bongoman | this is the english forum i see | 12:57 |
| ThistleWeb | ActionParsnip: sure, when I lock in, my xfce panel loads first, then compiz, but when compiz loads, my icons in the notification area dont appear. I have to restart my xfce panel after that to see them. I can't get that to stay across reboots | 12:57 |
| mrXX | ashish is that 4 me? | 12:57 |
| ashish | yeap | 12:57 |
| Halitech | !who | 12:58 |
| ubottu | As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 12:58 |
| mrXX | ashish thanks, appreciate it, - i dont get the mic input level at all | 12:58 |
| spongebob | ThistleWeb, an empty system tray or no sys tray at all? | 12:58 |
| ActionParsnip | ThistleWeb: i'd ask in #compiz compiz is great at screwing stuff up unless you get it really well setup | 12:58 |
| ThistleWeb | spoilt: the tray is there, exaile etc responds as if the icons are there, but they're invisible until I restart my panel | 12:59 |
| ThistleWeb | spongebob: tab completion error sorry | 12:59 |
| spongebob | hmm... odd. compiz only? | 13:00 |
| ThistleWeb | I looked at the startup options to try and get compiz to start first, but it seems to make no difference | 13:00 |
| ThistleWeb | is it a lower number starting first or a higher number in the priority order? | 13:01 |
| spongebob | ok, I really think my ISP is the problem, not my wifi card. :( | 13:01 |
| ThistleWeb | I tried at both ends but no difference | 13:01 |
| Torllan | for init.d lower number has higher priority | 13:01 |
| spongebob | ThistleWeb, I think it's top to bottom. | 13:01 |
| gionnico | best and light torrent client ? | 13:02 |
| gionnico | I liked deluge (much like uTorrent), but it doesnt support magnet links | 13:02 |
| shooree | heya. I'm trying to connect to a hidden wireless, but when I fill out the details such as password and IP, and select the newly created connection from the list, the option to connect is grayed out. Why is this happening? I know I've got correct settings. | 13:02 |
| ThistleWeb | k, all my other xfce stuff is at 40, compiz was at 50 when I started trying that | 13:02 |
| Dr_Willis | gionnico: depends on what features you need. Ive never used magnet so no idea on that | 13:02 |
| Kikela | hello, before install, Ubuntu have a lot of software in x86_64 ? or it's better to stay in x86_32 ? | 13:03 |
| Infinitas | !tab | 13:03 |
| ubottu | You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 13:03 |
| Zzenon | hi | 13:03 |
| darksector | Do we have sound themes for ubuntu ? i can't find them anywhere | 13:03 |
| spongebob | gionnico, ktorrent :lol: Its got features that shouldn't be in a torrent program. it just doesn't have a "start minimized to tray" option. | 13:03 |
| Zzenon | i have a problem with virt-manager | 13:03 |
| spongebob | ThistleWeb, sorry, I don't know why | 13:04 |
| Zzenon | TCP/IP error: VNC connection to hypervisor host got refused or disconnected! | 13:04 |
| Torllan | Kikela, that depends on your hw | 13:04 |
| ThistleWeb | spongebob: thats fine, I'll try compiz later | 13:04 |
| ThistleWeb | ty anyway | 13:04 |
| ^c|0ud^ | is there an application for ubuntu to assignment specific applications to run in a certain workspace? | 13:04 |
| gionnico | spongebob: so ktorrent you say complete and light? | 13:04 |
| spongebob | darksector, I think /usr/share/sounds | 13:04 |
| darksector | spongebob: no i meant sound themes installable themes not the directory where they are installed | 13:05 |
| Kikela | Torllan, my hardware it's a x64 Core 2 Duo, but if you have only the system in x64 and no software, it's better to stay in x32 | 13:05 |
| Dr_Willis | gionnico: i use ktorrent. Is got more features then most torrent clients. but its also a kde4 app. so it will not be 'lite' | 13:06 |
| spongebob | gionnico, depends... it depends on some kde stuff I think, 12m memory usage right now. | 13:06 |
| Mac8a | how do you show the userlist in XChat for GNOME? | 13:06 |
| Torllan | Kikela, true, but it would've been better not to get x64 hw to start with then... | 13:06 |
| bradpitt | ktorrent is not working on private tracker e.g bitsoup | 13:06 |
| gionnico | Dr_Willis, spongebob .. well i'm on eee-pc 701 | 13:06 |
| gionnico | celeron 630MHz | 13:06 |
| spongebob | darksector, well, I saw an installable sound theme from the nanami madobe pack, but I haven't tried installing it. | 13:06 |
| Torllan | anyway, 32bit programs are runnable in x64 env | 13:06 |
| IdleOne | Mac8a: it is hidden by default, you need to click and expand it. should be on the right side of the client | 13:06 |
| om26er | bradpitt, use anyother client. and private tracker might be down | 13:06 |

| spongebob | gionnico, not sure if ktorrent would be good then. I haven't tried it on that hardware yet. | 13:07 |
| PIZZATASTEGOOD | What exactly does Wubi do, will it partition my drive? | 13:07 |
| spongebob | PIZZATASTEGOOD, nope | 13:08 |
| gionnico | spongebob: what about transmission? | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: it does not make partitions. it installs ubuntu into a 'file' on the windows drive. | 13:08 |
| gionnico | it's gtk.. | 13:08 |
| PIZZATASTEGOOD | then? | 13:08 |
| LjL | PIZZATASTEGOOD: no, it will create a file inside your windows filesystem which will *behave* as a partition | 13:08 |
| spongebob | PIZZATASTEGOOD, it just makes a disk image | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: i reccomend using a normal way to install ubuntu. | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: not using wubi to insstall ubuntu 'under/inside' windows | 13:08 |

| PIZZATASTEGOOD | so if i delete the file, everything will be normal again? | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: you would use the normal add/remove programs feature of windows to 'remove' ubuntu. | 13:09 |
| === i is now known as Guest71795 | ||

| pozic | husinjalal: it is supposedly fixed, but I don't see a new version of update-manager, so it is useless. | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: i have no issues with 'messing up windows' by using a normal install method. I do know enough about partitions to partiopn my drive properly :) the installer can automate this | 13:11 |

| Torllan | Kikela, possibly. I'm not sure though as I don't have x64 available to play around with... | 13:11 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: if you want the least impact. test it out via the live cd. | 13:11 |
| spongebob | quibbler, I think you mean dual boot dude | 13:11 |
| legend2440 | Mac8a: if you mean xchat-gnome click on bottom left where it says 1430 Users | 13:11 |

| * Dr_Willis has visions of cowboy boots fighting with work boots. | 13:11 | |
| Dr_Willis | Guest60434: Nope. Dont think so. | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest60434: that wouldbe too nice. :) | 13:12 |
| PIZZATASTEGOOD | If i normally install ubuntu the normal way, will it partition my drive? | 13:12 |
| ActionParsnip | PIZZATASTEGOOD: or you can resize ntfs to make room for the install (backup your data just incase) | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest60434: you can make a persistant save on the flash drive then install things howeverf | 13:12 |
| ActionParsnip | PIZZATASTEGOOD: it can, you can resize as part of the installation | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: it will resize the existing and add partitions. yes. It can dothat | 13:12 |
| om26er | this time on my ubuntu install i made a separate /home how will it turn out to be helpful on my next install.(how to use it) | 13:13 |
| lb__ | hi! can you just pop in a Karmic disc into a Hardy and do a direct upgrade? | 13:13 |
| Guest60434 | Dr_Willis: it would, I need some extra drivers etc. to make a usable live-USB | 13:13 |
| Guest60434 | Dr_Willis: That would be a possability yes :) | 13:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest60434: I made a usb-live for each of my pc's with the specific drivers each needed. | 13:13 |
| ActionParsnip | om26er: good move, saves heartache if you need a reinstall | 13:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest60434: ive installed the nvidia and ati and wireless drivers onto a usb-disk-creator made usb flash befor. | 13:13 |
| Guest60434 | But I don't won't any other changes to be persistence to the USB though. Is that possible? | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest60434: you would need to 'remaster' then. Ive never done that | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | !remaster | 13:14 |

| Dr_Willis | cichlasoma: there may still be a few little bits of kubuntu laying about.. but I always keep both desktops installed | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | om26er: you set it to mount to /home in custom partitioning but tell the installer not to format it | 13:16 |

| Dr_Willis | !tor | raik | 13:35 |
| ubottu | raik: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 13:35 |
| john06 | hi | 13:36 |
| Dr_Willis | heh.. raik tor is a anomiozer proxy system. check out its homepage. | 13:36 |
| Dr_Willis | raik: its softwre. but its not in the repos last i checked | 13:36 |
| slope | raik: don't use tor before reading about it properly. Anything you send unencrypted can be read by the last node. | 13:36 |

| raik | does using tor in browser make browser slow? | 13:40 |
| Dr_Willis | raik: there will be a slowdown . yes. | 13:40 |
| slope | raik: tor will also be slow and not something you want to use all the time. If you're willing to pay look for a VPN tunnel service. It all depends on how anonymous you want to be. | 13:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Thers being 'secure' then thers being 'paranoid' :) | 13:40 |

| PIZZATASTEGOOD | Should i use Wubi or do a proper install? and why | 13:44 |
| Christoffer | O_o | 13:44 |
| Halitech | PIZZATASTEGOOD, proper install, anything happens to windows and there goes your Ubuntu install, runs faster on a native install, better support for proper install | 13:45 |
| PIZZATASTEGOOD | What if i no longer want ubuntu? | 13:45 |
| Sicario | hi | 13:45 |
| slope | PIZZATASTEGOOD: Use wubi if you're not willing to format/partition your hard drive and only want to try it out. Otherwise proper. | 13:45 |
| martin_ | Dr_Willis, someone else with it - http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg1766660.html | 13:46 |

| kartook | gpg error http://paste.ubuntu.com/322391/ | 13:46 |
| Halitech | PIZZATASTEGOOD, use your windows instll cd to repair the MBR and then format the partition that ubuntu is installed on | 13:46 |
| Sicario | how can i setup ubuntu thems | 13:46 |
| PIZZATASTEGOOD | i currently dont have any partitions, the ubuntu installer will make one for me right? | 13:47 |
| slope | Sicario: google: how to install gnome themes | 13:47 |
| bazhang | slope, please dont recommend that here | 13:47 |
| Halitech | PIZZATASTEGOOD, yes it will, I recommend defragging your drive at least twice before you partition it though | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: you delete the partition ubuntu is on, let windows reformat it, and reinstall the windows boot loader. to remove linux | 13:47 |
| mezquitale | PIZZATASTEGOOD, you alreaady have windows installed? | 13:47 |
| PIZZATASTEGOOD | i have windows xp installed | 13:48 |

| husinjalal | before doing anything to xp ..... better backup first & defrag ..... | 13:48 |
| Sicario | hi | 13:48 |
| bazhang | Sicario, get a theme, from gnome-look.org then drag the tar.gz to the theme manager | 13:48 |

| pozic | Dr_Willis: it was not universe, but probably vlc depends on some stuff which is not in universe. | 13:50 |
| pozic | Dr_Willis: I fixed it. | 13:50 |
| Halitech | PIZZATASTEGOOD, no because windows can't natively read linux partitions | 13:50 |
| PIZZATASTEGOOD | then i'll just wubi | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: you will have to reformat the LINUX parittion to let windows use that space. | 13:50 |
| husinjalal | before doing anything to xp ..... better backup first & defrag ..... :D | 13:51 |
| pozic | PIZZATASTEGOOD: you can read EXT3 from Windows. | 13:51 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: thats not the same as 'loseing all your windows data' | 13:51 |
| pozic | PIZZATASTEGOOD: (if that is what you want to do) | 13:51 |
| mezquitale | PIZZATASTEGOOD, if you delete to stop using ubuntu you will have to use a utility like Gparted to delete the partition you created for ubuntu and reclaim the space for your windows partition | 13:51 |
| === Pascal is now known as Pascal_du_Pole_M | ||
| Halitech | pozic, natively? | 13:52 |
| PIZZATASTEGOOD | if i reformat the ubuntu partition, will it still be a partition? or will the space be added to the original one partition | 13:52 |
| pozic | Halitech: what does that even mean? | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: learning how pc's partiion drives and how partions work . Is knowledge well worth learning. :) | 13:52 |
| pozic | Halitech: just instructions executed on a CPU. | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: its a seperate partition. Unless you reeize the windows partition to use the space | 13:52 |
| pozic | Halitech: there is no scripting language in between, if that is what you mean. | 13:52 |
| Halitech | pozic, without adding any extra software windows cannot read ext3 | 13:52 |
| slope | PIZZATASTEGOOD: really, the easiest way is to get a livecd and play around, if you're still undecided do wubi. When and if you decide to switch do a proper install. And always have a backup before doing stuff like repartitioning your hard drive. | 13:52 |

| PIZZATASTEGOOD | Will a Wubi install be slower and stuff then a proper install | 13:53 |
| Halitech | pozic, exactly my point | 13:53 |
| Dr_Willis | PIZZATASTEGOOD: it may be a tad slower. | 13:53 |

This is a Dell Vostro 1700 laptop and I must have upgraded two versions (since I limited my old versions on grub to 2). Can anyone help me to either go forward or fall back to 9.04? | 13:54 |

| eddym | do you guys think this would work in ubuntu 9.10 http://www.gizfever.com/usb-webcam-with-speaker-microphone-p-525.html | 13:55 |

| ActionParsnip | IndiRedif: you can't downgrade | 13:55 |
| IndiRedif | Ohh | 13:55 |
| BCMM | i've checked things aren't muted | 13:55 |

| BCMM | Halitech: no output | 13:56 |
| Infinitas | IndiRedif: Yes, that's what it means. | 13:56 |
| ActionParsnip | IndiRedif: thats great, make a new user there and then reboot to log on as the new user | 13:56 |
| ActionParsnip | IndiRedif: if its ok, your original user is bad somehow. If it doesnt log in either then its a system issue | 13:57 |
| BCMM | Halitech: this might be relevant though: 00:0f.0 Audio device: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Azalia Audio Controller | 13:57 |
| silidan | ActionParsnip: hm... it is the manual of virtualbox that states that... in order to use usb for the virtual machine... so im actually not sure what that means.. | 13:57 |
| Halitech | BCMM, then its not seeing your sound card, can you use pastebin and post the full output of lspci | 13:57 |
| IndiRedif | ActionParsnip - I am currently inWindoze - so I'll have to log off, do what you are suggesting and then try it | 13:57 |

| IndiRedif | Infinitas - thx | 13:57 |
| BCMM | Halitech: the device looks like it should work, i can change mixer settings and so on | 13:57 |
| ActionParsnip | silidan: make sure the USB ports are activated in the virtualboxes settings. you will need to power off the vbox to edit | 13:58 |
| silidan | ActionParsnip: yep they are added | 13:58 |
| Halitech | BCMM, speakers connected to the correct port? (dumb question but its happened before) | 13:58 |
| BCMM | Halitech: i can make the pc-speaker beeps come out of it (it's a laptop) and make it reproduce sound from the microphone by playing with the mixer settings | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | silidan: you don't mount mice, only block devices | 13:58 |
| BCMM | Halitech: built-in | 13:58 |
| BCMM | Halitech: also tried headphones | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | silidan: maybe you need the guest additions | 13:58 |

| julioneto | Is there how transfer the music (with Rhythmbox) whithout convert it? | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip | silidan: if you want access to your usb devices, you can cheat and simply add the folder the USB stick mounts to as a drive letter (guessing the vbox is windows) | 13:59 |
| BCMM | Halitech: and anyway it clearly can make sound, such as pc-speaker beeps and repeating microphone input | 13:59 |
| BCMM | just nothing from the actual system | 13:59 |

| nerdy_kid | BCMM my res was fine before the drivers, but i need the drivers | 14:11 |
| BCMM | kostkon: yeah | 14:11 |
| kostkon | BCMM, ok | 14:12 |
| BCMM | kostkon: worked OK before the dist-upgrade though | 14:12 |

| Furtano | AH FUCK UP UBUNTU DOESNT SNYCHRONIZE MY HOMEWORK IDIOT UBUNTU CUFKFJOÜA | 14:12 |
| kostkon | BCMM, recheck the volume levels maybe. and disable/enable any switches | 14:12 |
| kostkon | BCMM, try all possible combos | 14:12 |
| iceroot_ | Furtano: watch your language | 14:12 |
| BCMM | kostkon: yeah, done that | 14:13 |
| kostkon | BCMM, :S | 14:13 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM NVIDA drivers 96.43.10 on a GeForce4 MX 440 | 14:13 |
| jagadeesh | have installed ubuntu studio on karmic. shift key is not working | 14:13 |
| BCMM | kostkon: i've muted and unmuted everything, while catting >dsp, and no noises | 14:13 |
| jagadeesh | what am i missing | 14:13 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: i used to own that card :) | 14:13 |
| scottandmonique | same | 14:13 |
| kostkon | BCMM, ok | 14:14 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: so resolution was fine till you installed the binary driver? | 14:14 |
| thatoneguy99 | hello? | 14:14 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM yes, and this isnt my graphics card (thankfully lol) | 14:14 |
| scottandmonique | binary does not support the mx cards | 14:14 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: ? | 14:14 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM i have a much nicer one :D | 14:14 |
| dremits | hi there i'm using a fresh installation of latest ubuntu server and webmin. how do I access the webmin using the server's hostname instead of it's ip? | 14:14 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: oh, someone else's machine | 14:14 |
| thatoneguy99 | does anynone else have problems with keeping their wireless on 9.1 | 14:14 |
| Furtano | u1conflict files wtf ? | 14:15 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM yeah | 14:15 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: does ubuntu include nvidia-xconfig? | 14:15 |
| thatoneguy99 | can anyone help with 9.1 issues? | 14:16 |
| husinjalal | dremits define host ip in ... /etc/hosts | 14:16 |
| iceroot_ | !anyone | thatoneguy99 | 14:16 |
| ubottu | thatoneguy99: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 14:16 |
| sipior | Furtano: complete sentences, and a bit of context, will probably get you a lot more help than the course you are currently pursuing. | 14:16 |
| slope | thatoneguy99: maybe, maybe not. but why not ask what you really want to know? :) explain the problem, if you did any changes before they started and anything else you think is of importance and if someone knows they'll help you out. (not me though, I'm off now, good luck!) | 14:16 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM yes, ill run it even though i checked xorg.conf out and it looked fine ... hang on a sec | 14:16 |
| lundh | hi, anyone got experience with sun grid engine here? | 14:16 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: back up xorg.conf first | 14:16 |
| iceroot_ | Furtano: again, watch your language | 14:16 |
| thatoneguy99 | i moved from windows to ubuntu 9.1 and now my wireless keeps dropping out every minute or so | 14:16 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: and are you going to be happy at the console if xorg won't start? | 14:16 |
| dremits | husinjalal hold on will try | 14:16 |
| iceroot_ | lundh: seems like off-topic | 14:17 |
| thatoneguy99 | it automatically reconnects but drops out again | 14:17 |
| Keypad | Can some one help me to enable ssh | 14:17 |
| lundh | iceroot_: seriously? I want to run it un ubuntu, hence asking here | 14:17 |
| diplomatic | hey im tryin to get write permission in the home directory | 14:17 |
| diplomatic | dont want to woerk for me | 14:17 |
| slope | Furtano: read what I wrote to thatoneguy99 if you're hoping to get some help here. Good luck to you too. | 14:17 |
| BCMM | Keypad: ssh server? | 14:17 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM oh yeah, ill be fine :D | 14:17 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: goodgood | 14:17 |
| BCMM | Keypad: it's generally automatically enabled when you install it | 14:18 |
| husinjalal | Keypad ..ssh client is already enable .... but for ssh server u need to install it ... | 14:18 |
| iceroot_ | lundh: then ask a detailed question | 14:18 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM nope, no change | 14:18 |
| Keypad | BCMM: I cant connect though, I get refused to connect to port 22 | 14:18 |
| davidboy | How can I tell if my computer is 32-bit or 64-bit? | 14:18 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: is it an LCD? | 14:18 |
| husinjalal | davidboy ...u can check tru ur bios | 14:19 |
| dremits | husinjalal thanks very much it worked | 14:19 |
| Keypad | husinjalal: Ive installed openssh-server I dont understand why its not working, I thought it might be a fireewall rule | 14:19 |
| BCMM | davidboy: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 14:19 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM i am currently using an LCD that supports up to 1280x800, but the owner uses a ancient non LCD screen | 14:19 |
| lundh | iceroot_: I did, I asked if anyone has experience with it. Its a simple question which has an even easier answer. I want to run it to control a cluster of machines and want opinions on how it works. it it works well on ubuntu and just general advice on the software | 14:19 |
| iceroot_ | !anyone | lundh | 14:20 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: it's possible, that the mx 440 doesn't support the native resolution of your lcd | 14:20 |
| ubottu | lundh: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 14:20 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: do you have an old monitor around? | 14:20 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: after all, it's an old card | 14:20 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: AGP, right? | 14:20 |
| iceroot_ | lundh: has anyone.. is never a detailed/usefull question | 14:20 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM yeah but it will take a while to dig the monitor up...the LCD most defantily supports the res of the old monitor that the owner uses | 14:21 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: well, probably not the issue then | 14:21 |
| dremits | husinjalal i take it back it's not working | 14:21 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM the card is working; compiz is working, everything is fine exept the res | 14:21 |
| davidboy | BCMM: I get a bunch of output from that, but I don't see the type anywhere. | 14:22 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: hmm, i think there is an nvidia-specific line you can add to the device section to make it autodetect resolutions differently | 14:22 |
| friendishan | sup? | 14:22 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM could i manualy force it to take a res via x config? | 14:22 |
| BCMM | davidboy: what is the "model name" | 14:22 |
| husinjalal | which one not wrking ... | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: you can fix it old school | 14:22 |
| Keypad | Any one got any ideas why SSH refuses to connect to localhost ? ufw says 22/tcp ALLOW Anywhere | 14:22 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: you can manually set modes | 14:22 |
| davidboy | BCMM: Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU T2370 @ 1.73GHz | 14:23 |
| === friendishan is now known as friendishan_ | ||
| nerdy_kid | BCMM ActionParsnip i dont care how i fix it lol | 14:23 |
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: if you run: gksudo nvidia-settings you can setup the screen someway then click "Write to X config file" | 14:23 |
| === friendishan_ is now known as friendishan | ||
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: slighly vague on that cause i haven't had to since probably back when i had teh mx 440 | 14:23 |
| === friendishan is now known as friendishan_ | ||
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: you can now run: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and fine tune the res in the file, save the new file and restart X / reboot | 14:23 |
| diplomatic | How do i make home directory writeable.. this is a brand new server | 14:23 |
| === friendishan_ is now known as friendishan | ||
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: ActionParsnip has a point | 14:23 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: about nvidia-settings | 14:24 |
| scottandmonique | chmod 667 /home | 14:24 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM ActionParsnip ok trying the nvidia-settings... | 14:24 |
| scottandmonique | sudo chmod 667 /home | 14:24 |
| frdelaet | #phys2009 | 14:24 |
| lundh | iceroot_: if you had no advice at all, why just complain? | 14:24 |
| diplomatic | i got it | 14:24 |
| diplomatic | thanks | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | nvidia-settings is great if you have a 4x3 screen as far as I've seen, the list of resolutions always seens limited to me so I do it that way | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: i have to use xorg.conf still as my monitor doesnt report refresh rates so I have to add them in manually | 14:25 |
| BCMM | davidboy: 64-bit | 14:25 |
| BCMM | davidboy: based on teh Intel Core architechture | 14:25 |
| dremits | hi there i'm using a fresh installation of latest ubuntu server and webmin. how do I access the webmin using the server's hostname instead of it's ip? | 14:25 |
| llutz | diplomatic: sudo chmod 755 /home (667 is stupid) | 14:25 |
| Furtano | my ubuntu one doesn't synchronize with the UbuntuOne folder. But at ubuntuone.com the files are online oO. | 14:26 |
| Furtano | and i got u1conflict files | 14:26 |
| tolecnal | I've just noticed on a couple of newly upgraded servers to 9.10 that there is an automatic logout of SSH clients. While this admittedly is a good security measure, I'd like to either disable it on a per host basis or entierly (the machines are on a none internet routed network). Problem is, I can't find what mechanism controls this, any pointers? | 14:26 |
| Furtano | but removed them | 14:26 |
| ActionParsnip | !webmin | dremits | 14:26 |
| ubottu | dremits: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 14:26 |
| ActionParsnip | dremits: you can add an entry in your hosts file to make the translation quicker | 14:26 |
| iceroot_ | lundh: because noone will help you with a question like that. you get yes or no as an anwser, and then you have to ask a new question, so just ask the real question. you see, its very easy :) | 14:26 |
| ActionParsnip | dremits: webmin is very not advised | 14:27 |
| === carlos is now known as Guest19411 | ||
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: in your monitor section, Option "DPMS", plus very liberal refresh and sync ranges can sometimes make it autodetect modes properly | 14:27 |
| Dr_Willis | dremits: you could edit the clienbts /etc/hosts to map the proper hostname to ip#. but i agree with the others.. webmin is worth avoiding | 14:27 |
| friendishan | !evolution | 14:27 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about evolution | 14:27 |
| davidboy | BCMM: Thanks | 14:27 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: don't do that if his monitor is so old that it will try to do insane refresh rates instead of showing an error | 14:27 |
| dremits | Dr_Willis ok i'll change from webmin but i have edited the hosts file but to no avail | 14:28 |
| friendishan | !ebox | 14:28 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM ActionParsnip the nvidia settings thing isnt working...have do it manualy | 14:28 |
| ubottu | ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox | 14:28 |
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: what error do you get? | 14:28 |
| Dr_Willis | dremits: can you ping the server by hostname? | 14:28 |
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: is it "cannot parse xorg.conf fie" | 14:28 |
| friendishan | ubottu : thanks | 14:28 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 14:28 |
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: or similar | 14:28 |
| lundh | iceroot_: If I have a fuzzy question, it help just knowing if anyone actually know what kind of software it it before asking a long question | 14:29 |
| dremits | dr_willis yes | 14:29 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM ActionParsnip no no i dont get an error i just cant set the res any higher, im in the xorg.conf now | 14:29 |

| BCMM | nerdy_kid: if you want i can pastebin my monitor section | 14:29 |
| bazhang | friendishan, /msg ubottu please | 14:29 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: it's served me pretty well on some very different monitors | 14:29 |
| Dr_Willis | dremits: webmin is set to onlyu allow connections from local lan ip's or localhost i thought by default. Using webmin over the internet is a very bad idea from a security point of view | 14:29 |
| scottandmonique | anyone using ubuntu one | 14:29 |
| skande | guys | 14:29 |
| skande | hi all | 14:29 |
| friendishan | bazhang ok | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: yes, the res won't change until you edit the file and restart X, otherwise you just wrote the config for the system to the xorg.conf file, nothing more | 14:29 |
| skande | need help | 14:29 |
| skande | 2 min | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | !ask | skande | 14:30 |
| ubottu | skande: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 14:30 |
| suigeneris | I just realized that videos on facebook don't play to their full length when on ubuntu. anyone can tell me how I can fix that? | 14:30 |
| syrius | why no more cinepaint in repo? | 14:30 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM sure, as a side note the 'Modes' section is set to 'nvidia-auto-select | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | !infp cinepaint | 14:30 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about infp cinepaint | 14:30 |
| friendishan | scottandmonique : most of them (including me) | 14:30 |

| ActionParsnip | scottandmonique: i don't | 14:30 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: i don't have a modes section | 14:30 |

| shail | from ubuntu | 14:31 |
| skande | do u know the doc if the interuptions (kbd) which are sent to a process ?? | 14:31 |
| husinjalal | dremits ... the delay maybe because of lan traffics ... | 14:31 |
| scottandmonique | a new program in ubuntu 9.10 Ubuntu ONE sharing files using internet and email | 14:31 |
| skande | do u know the doc of the interuptions (kbd) which are sent to a process ?? | 14:31 |
| dremits | Dr_Willis: Thanks I think it's working. Sorry so why is webmin bad? Is ebox the best alternative? | 14:31 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM ActionParsnip i just need to know the format of the 'Modes' section, right now its set to nvidia-auto-select which i guess doesnt work | 14:31 |

| iceroot_ | lundh: is anyone using firefox? answer = yes or no, but my real question was: is firefox running unter ubuntu 9.10. so i hope you see what i mean | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: did you not set a resolution in nvidia-settings? if you leave it as auto, you will get that. Set the resolution to something other than auto, like 1024x768 and then you can change the number easier | 14:33 |

| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: i can send yu mine if you'd like | 14:33 |
| nerdy_kid | BCMM why? | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | nerdy_kid: http://pastebin.com/ff7e3ea8 | 14:34 |
| BCMM | nerdy_kid: because not having one has always resulted in flawless autodetection for me, when using nvidia drivers | 14:34 |

| billybigrigger | :P | 15:01 |
| ActionParsnip | diplomatic: or if the pwd of the terminal is where the link is to be you can omit destination | 15:01 |
| ActionParsnip | diplomatic: e.g. cd /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins; sudo ln -s ~/Documents/linux/libflashplayer.so | 15:02 |
| gzephyr | anyone know why would get output from pulseaudio on the volume control, but no actual sound output? | 15:02 |
| ActionParsnip | diplomatic: will make a symbolic link in /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins to the file in my home folder | 15:02 |
| Prage | BCMM: I fixed ALSA here. =D | 15:03 |
| syrius | don't you have to be an expert for backups? bazhang | 15:03 |
| kostkon | gzephyr, what do you mean exactly? | 15:03 |
| Hans_Henrik | after sudo apt-get install openssh-server, will the server be active by default? or do i need to activate it somehow? | 15:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Hans_Henrik: its started running by default | 15:03 |
| gzephyr | pulseaudio volume control should visually the sound that should be outputting... i get a readout there but i dont get any actual sound | 15:04 |
| billybigrigger | Hans_Henrik, you should edit /etc/ssh/sshd.conf first | 15:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Hans_Henrik: and is added to startup, you can now not only ssh / file transfer / x forward etc, but you can also use VNC securely over wAN if you configure your network | 15:04 |

| yacc | erUSUL, no I think (I have no idea), I've managed to delete the .so => it's in the locate db, but it's not there in reality :( | 16:07 |
| epinky | vikta: use "&", sry | 16:07 |
| vikta | epinky: thanks, was following the instructions from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommandlineHowto#Multiple%20Commands thought it was bash, either that or it needs updating. | 16:07 |

| martin_ | if anyone is still around since early this morning, my problem with update-manager failing to update sysv-rc with segfault was fixed after a reboot | 16:10 |

| erUSUL | AmokPaule: ask in #ubuntustudio too | 16:10 |
| Dr_Willis | epaphus: hmm.. someone was askinmg how to make apt-get use a proxy earlier. :) to bad i dident pay attention. I was thinking its a setting in synaptic, not gnome. | 16:10 |

| rubydiamond | how do I installed propsed software via command line | 16:10 |
| echinos | just did upgrade to 9.10 with update manager, now when I boot it goes to a desktop with bad graphics (like the wrong resolution setting), and hangs. Can't swith to a text term, can't ctrl-alt-backspace | 16:10 |
| AmokPaule | i want to create some sounds so like a synthi or something | 16:11 |
| echinos | can only hit power button. I turned off gdm, and startx does the same thing... I don't see any errors in the xorg log | 16:11 |
| mordof | soreau: now i wonder if i can follow this recovering grub guide | 16:11 |
| soreau | mordof: You should be able to follow the instructions for restoring grub after installing windows. How did you get to the grub prompt btw? | 16:11 |
| AmokPaule | ardour looks good really pro | 16:11 |
| Dreamglider | cankoy: it installed correct but it does not run, nor can i type wspr in terminal and run it | 16:11 |
| mordof | soreau: sudo grub - did that part right at least. yeah i'll look over the guide now and let you knwo what happens | 16:11 |
| mordof | soreau: ty | 16:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | rubydiamond, if you've enabled "proposed" (pre-release Ubuntu updates), update with "sudo apt-get update" then see if anything is available for updating. | 16:12 |

| cankoy | Dreamglider: I'm not familiar w/that sw. Just try to run from cmdline and see if it prints any err message | 16:14 |
| Dreamglider | cankoy: wspr command not found | 16:14 |
| echinos | is apt-get dist-upgrade the same as doing the upgrade from update-manager? | 16:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | rubydiamond, "sudo apt-get -s upgrade" should simulate what an update would look like for ya | 16:15 |
| erUSUL | echinos: no | 16:15 |
| echinos | is there a way to retry the upgrade from command line? | 16:15 |
| erUSUL | echinos: in fact dis-upgrade by itself does not upgrade the distribution to a newer one | 16:15 |
| cankoy | Dreamglider: 'dpkg -L wspr' to get a list of files it installed (maybe the name has changed) | 16:15 |
| echinos | well, I'm stuck here now :/ | 16:16 |
| rubydiamond | ZykoticK9: done .. it shows karmic proposed software .. i just want to install these two libjmagick6-java libjmagick6-jni | 16:16 |
| erUSUL | echinos: something in the other logs ? | 16:16 |
| echinos | there were errors during the upgrade | 16:16 |
| Novis | hello there anyone that can explain the size chart on canonical store? | 16:16 |
| erUSUL | echinos: or in ~/.xsession-errors ? happens the same in a new user ? (create one from terminal ) | 16:16 |
| Crazyguy | echinos, try the dist-upgrade | 16:17 |
| rubydiamond | ZykoticK9: I just want to install libjmagick6-java libjmagick6-jni | 16:17 |
| rubydiamond | from karmic-proposed | 16:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | rubydiamond, "sudo apt-get install libjmagick6-java libjmagick6-jni" then perhaps remove proposed | 16:17 |
| echinos | but I ran apt-get upgrade after and it seemed to get everything else | 16:17 |
| echinos | dist-upgrade doesn't install any packages now | 16:17 |
| echinos | but my sources still say jaunty | 16:17 |
| === ubott2 is now known as ubottu | ||
| ZykoticK9 | rubydiamond, you should research pinning perhaps as well, i've never actually used it | 16:17 |
| Dreamglider | cankoy: thanks mate, i had to run it with python wspr.py | 16:18 |
| Crazyguy | echinos, I see... you should be able to just change the sources.list and replace "jaunty" with "karmic" and then run apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade | 16:18 |
| * hellyeah wonder anyone here who makes thesis about control theory | 16:18 | |
| cankoy | Dreamglider: yw | 16:18 |
| Martyn | hellyea : *cough* | 16:18 |
| mordof | soreau: k, said it was successfully installed, going to restart and see if i can access both OS's now.. *crosses fingers* | 16:18 |
| Martyn | hellyeah: : Although control theory is a HUGE body of mathematics | 16:19 |
| aurolac | i read that gimp will be taken out of the default install next release | 16:19 |
| aurolac | how much space will that free up exactly? | 16:19 |
| hellyeah | Martyn, | 16:19 |
| hellyeah | i just need history of control theory | 16:19 |
| gord | 3kb | 16:19 |
| gord | or more | 16:19 |
| hellyeah | whole history | 16:19 |
| Martyn | hellyeah : It's a long history, going back beyond the 1950's | 16:19 |
| om26er_ | aurolac, yes it might be as it takes alot of space on the live cd and is too complex. actually that would be great | 16:20 |
| aurolac | om26er_, i went to download it and it said 4.4mb so i was wondering, maybe its all the dependencies too? | 16:20 |
| hellyeah | Martyn, i summarize this history for my thesis proposal | 16:20 |
| Martyn | hellyeah : There are a number of fantastic books about the whole body of theory... is there a specific part of the field that you're looking to summarise? | 16:20 |

| aurolac | om26er_, swap rhythmbox for banshee ;) get rid of totem and put on vlc | 16:22 |

| rsk | jmburgess wait for it.... | 16:31 |
| DexterLB | that second PC MUST run windoze, due to family stuff if you know what I mean :( | 16:31 |
| DexterLB | so is there a way to stick ubuntu server edition in qemu or something like that | 16:31 |
| DexterLB | and make it run at windoze startup | 16:31 |
| hellyeah | w/info martyn | 16:31 |

| JanWinnicki | i'm asking because i've deleted it :P and now i have to start metacity manually or add it to my startup programs ;) | 16:31 |

| ouro | http://tedbuntu.wordpress.com/2009/11/02/ubuntu-win-broadcom-bugg-fixed/ <---- did that look any good to anyone or will this not work, it seems like the most straightforward explanation, and it's actually for version 9.1 | 16:32 |

| fauxreigner | Shot in the dark - anyone know a place to find IC marking codes? I'm specifically looking for something that matches "26" horizontally and "31" vertically on an SOT-23 package. | 16:37 |
| grawity | Anorien: "purge" is like "remove", but it also removes configuration files belonging to that package. | 16:37 |
| Jeruvy | Anorien: it deletes the package marked | 16:37 |
| Dr_Willis | syrius: one has to wonder whats teh point.. if the router is protecting you.. why worry about a firewall? | 16:37 |

| Hans_Henrik | This session appears to be running under ssh. It is not recommended, to perform a upgrade over ssh currently because in case of failure it is harder to recover. | 16:37 |

| syrius | As originally urged by the FBI, and still urged by prominent security experts, our UnPnP utility easily disables the dangerous, and almost always unnecessary, Universal Plug and Play service. If you don't need it, turn it off. (For ALL versions of Windows.) | 16:43 |

| Ioneye | and how i can open this file and see whats inside/ | 17:35 |
| jrib | Yancho: erm, you don't "install inittab". What do you want to accomplish? | 17:35 |
| grawity | Yancho: Ubuntu uses Upstart, which doesn't have an inittab. | 17:35 |
| Yancho | jrib: when i am booting i am getting that i do not have inittab | 17:35 |

| dAnon | any idea why Ubuntu doesn't connect to wireless networks in Toshiba Satellite Pro L300, it sees them but just tries to connect with no success? | 17:36 |
| Yancho | so how come it is saying so jrib ? | 17:36 |
| jrib | Yancho: did you install just not complete successfully? | 17:36 |

| Dr_Willis | KalturaUser_bpo8: the version from virtualbox homepage can access usb drives and so forth, | 17:37 |
| jrib | Yancho: right, you probably replaced upstart with sysvinit which is why you now have that error. But if you use upstart, you do not need inittab | 17:38 |
| xae8koo | sparr: I don't understand how to connect it | 17:38 |

| theadmin | grawity: Well, it does quite fine for me. | 17:54 |

| resno | innomen: what would be a reason to upgrade? i am afraid to do it and break my machine. however, i will make sure to backu everything | 18:10 |
| mc1 | I've tried and burned about 5 CD and created the USB about 10 times | 18:10 |
| DareDevil0 | but without giving me options of writing any username or pass | 18:10 |
| KebabBob | I'm trying to boot ubuntu minimal 9.10 off an usb disk and I manage to get to kernel startup, but then I get a kernel panic, "unable to mount root fs on unknown-block" | 18:10 |
| epinky | brooksaar: http://pastebin.com/m3bae4d6e | 18:11 |
| coz_ | mc1, then insert the live ubuntu cd when you get to the desktop click the "Install" icon.... you will eventually get to the partitioning...where you will see a "slider" that will allow you to partition your disk easily by moving the slider...you want to leave romm for windows and enough disk space for ubuntu | 18:11 |
| KebabBob | System is acer revo btw | 18:11 |
| janisozaur | i'm having some problems with firefox. i'm using namoroka (3.6) from mozilla daily ppa. since few days ago the browser has trouble storing my session - whe n i close it and reopen it later, the tabs don't show up even though it is set to do so in the preferences, session store in about:config is enabled. purging the package and renaming ~/.mozilla (i.e. starting with fresh instance) doesn't help. can i anyone help me resolve this issue? | 18:11 |
| DareDevil0 | flan_suse, any suggestion? | 18:11 |
| innomen | resno, if you have backups then you dont have a problem and i would say upgrade just because its where all the attention is being focused, the older the version the more tricky support is, its good to stay current for a bunch of reasons imo | 18:11 |
| brooksaar | epinky: Thanks, I'll try that now | 18:11 |
| coz_ | mc1, let me see if I can find a "how to" with pictures so you can get an idea hold on | 18:11 |
| Kazakh | DareDevil0: try typing in windows "net use * \\<sharename> /user:<username>" it will then ask for a password and map the drive | 18:11 |
| mc1 | I don't het that far, just the initial startup dialog with NOAPIC, NOLAPIC etc, then try to boot and it either fails or hangs | 18:11 |
| laur | hy there | 18:12 |
| flan_suse | DareDevil0, are you doing this via a "Shared Folder" under Nautilus? | 18:12 |
| resno | ok thanks innomen. i upgraded my laptop and it blew up in my face. | 18:12 |

| Yancho | can i use the x86 version on my 64bit one to get the apts needed for upstart which got broken? or that will heavily mess my os ? | 18:12 |
| innomen | resno, if i'm not mistaken the kernel update alone makes it worth updating, but i'm pretty sure you can update your kernel by itself if you like, | 18:12 |
| laur | i need some support with mkv video files | 18:12 |
| laur | who can help me ? | 18:12 |

| flan_suse | DareDevil0, so you're trying to share a folder on Ubuntu, via Samba/CIFS, and you require the Windows client to enter the Ubuntu username/password to view the share? | 18:15 |
| ubottu | busfahrer: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 18:15 |

| kajo | I upgraded to 9.10... while this update caused my mic to start working, it now refuses to mute; this caused a terrible feedback first time I started it. My only options now are to mute the sound or use headphones; what can I do about this? I just need to mute the mic. Clicking 'mute' makes the meter show nothing, but the sound still comes through... | 18:16 |
| laur | nvidia gforce 7300/7500 GS | 18:16 |
| grawity | Dr_Willis: I guess the network was named "IRC" then. | 18:16 |

| yoshx | hello | 18:21 |
| paschu | Dr_Willis: The version is not relevant. I just want that it is on the bottom and that i can see which programs are open | 18:21 |
| innomen | anywho | 18:21 |
| renz | Just installed karmic, but can't seem to get any sound. No idea where to start - any advice? | 18:21 |
| innomen | Hey guys, i'm using launchy, and instead of launching some applications it opens a text file which says... "#!/bin/sh exec python /usr/lib/exaile/exaile.py --datadir=/usr/share/exaile/data --startgui "$@"" Is this a launchy problem or my machine problem? | 18:21 |
| mc1 | Karmic, what hardware? | 18:21 |
| aeon-ltd | Adelphos: it could be trying to boot from another non-exixting HDD then falling back to your first HDD | 18:21 |
| resno | renz: on a laptop or pc? | 18:21 |
| kajo | khensthoth, that properly alters the level.... but how can I fix the alsa applet? | 18:21 |
| innomen | (was that too soon to repeat my question?) | 18:21 |
| Dr_Willis | paschu: hmm.. thats the default I thouhgt. theres a window list on the pannels here. | 18:21 |
| renz | resno: laptop | 18:21 |

| Lungan | Is anyone here good at fluxbox? How do i change the font on the window? Dont know what its called, but probably boarder? The boarder the longest up on the window | 18:22 |
| Dr_Willis | paschu: alt-click/drag panel to bottom. drag the buttons down also.. its not hard | 18:22 |
| Adelphos | aeon-ltd: Sounds reasonable | 18:22 |
| Adelphos | Have to try | 18:22 |
| renz | mc1: zepto 6224w - resno: that's a negative | 18:22 |

| innomen | janisozaur, trying to lauch gftp produces a diffrent set of text, i think what happened is i change the default behavior for text files and its displaying what it should eb executing | 18:23 |
| khensthoth | kajo: No problem. By default I think the Mic level under Playback should be 0 or muted. Set it that way unless you want to be able to hear yourself though the speaker when you speak to the Mic. | 18:23 |
| innomen | janisozaur, how would i change the behavior of text files form doubleclick display to double click execute? | 18:23 |

| paschu | I just deleted something from my panel and now im not able to see which programs are open | 18:26 |
| janisozaur | malkomikis: sudo <command> | 18:26 |
| Lungan | Is there any channel for fluxbox questions on this server? | 18:26 |
| epinky | brooksaar: maybe there's some other rule messing around | 18:26 |
| kyentei | malkomikis: type in "su" (if your root account does not have a password, first type in "sudo passwd" | 18:26 |
| mc1 | malkomikis: sudo <command> or sudo su to stay in root user mode | 18:26 |

| stranger_ | i've got a file which format i don't know. "file" tells mir it's "data". what does it mean? | 18:26 |

| coz_ | paschu, ok right click the panel Add to panel and add Window list | 18:26 |
| malkomikis | ah thanks | 18:27 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Right click on an empty space on the panel, click Add to Panel, and add the Windows List Applet to it. | 18:27 |
| aeon-ltd | stranger: it could be a plain text file with no extension | 18:27 |
| kyentei | Janisozaur: My way works too. | 18:27 |
| innomen | ok new question, how do i get the "display/run/cancel" dialog when i double click an extensionless file back? somehow i set it to autmaticvally open with gedit, and i dont see anything like what i want in the open with properties tab | 18:27 |
| janisozaur | kyentei: i didn't say it doesn't... just there are consequences | 18:27 |
| kyentei | janisozaur: Which are? | 18:27 |
| paschu | coz_: you are the man! | 18:27 |
| seba | using xubuntu the panel at the top now has all icons to the left. is used to be that the status items where on the right side. now i can only find a configuration to move all icons in the bar to left, center & right but there seems to be no way to set these status icons apart | 18:28 |
| coz_ | paschu, there you go :) | 18:28 |
| coz_ | paschu, it may be helpful for you to become familiar with the available applets under that ? | 18:28 |
| janisozaur | kyentei: you start in different environment, you could diff the output of `printenv` and `/bin/pwd` | 18:28 |
| innomen | "There is no application installed for shell script files" | 18:28 |
| kyentei | janisozaur: Ah, I see. Thanks :) And so we learn something every day. | 18:28 |
| kyentei | janisozaur: Do you happen to know how I can use the default X-cursor too? =P | 18:29 |
| janisozaur | kyentei: also sudo uses sudoers | 18:29 |
| paschu | coz_: ya | 18:29 |
| trism | innomen: display/run/cancel really only shows up for me when I try to edit an executable text file | 18:29 |
| stranger_ | no its no plain text, any idea? | 18:29 |
| janisozaur | kyentei: no, sorry | 18:29 |
| kyentei | janisozaur: Okay, too bad :) Thanks though. | 18:29 |
| aeon-ltd | kyentei: its in a gtkmine file | 18:29 |
| paschu | how can i create a shortcut for my trashcan? | 18:29 |
| Lungan | How do i get the battery tray icon in fluxbox? | 18:29 |
| janisozaur | innomen: the dialog is shown only for files that are both readable and execatuble simultanously | 18:29 |
| trism | innomen: usually when I'm looking at things on a windows partition cause they are generally mounted as 777 by default | 18:29 |
| brooksaar | epinky: I have "iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 22 -j DROP" blocking port 22 from access on port 22, hence why I want to forward port 4852 to eth1, then change it to port 22. Sorry if I sound abit retarded, I'm not completely sure of my terminology | 18:30 |
| innomen | trism, how do i make it execute executables by default? | 18:30 |
| cognitiaclaeves | anyone familiar with gmusicbrowser? I added a bunch of songs over a network, and the network traffic when adding the songs didn't seem nearly as bad as when the app decided that a lot of the songs didn't have bitrate flags.

| innomen | trism, not sure, how would i check? | 18:33 |
| khensthoth | paschu: No problem. | 18:33 |
| janisozaur | innomen: there is no way to run non-executable files by default... you could make them open with bash though, or your other preferred shell | 18:33 |

| hatchetman82 | in compizconfig, how can i set one of the "heavy" animations for things like minimize ? | 18:34 |
| aeon-ltd | kyentei: wait! follow these commands in terminal first touch .Xdefaults | 18:34 |
| innomen | janisozaur, it would be a huge PITA to have a terminal window sitting open for every running process launched by launchy :P | 18:34 |
| Yancho | dcider: on the page itself or torrent engines like piratebay? | 18:34 |
| kyentei | tonii: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" | 18:34 |
| hatchetman82 | if i enable animation addons and set the animation to random i sometimes get the heavier effects, but there's no way to set them ? | 18:34 |
| janisozaur | innomen: you'd use bash, not a terminal. there's a difference | 18:34 |
| tonii | thanks khensthoth and kyentei | 18:34 |
| kyentei | aeon-ltd: Okay, it appeared. | 18:34 |
| epinky | brooksaar: just accept only for yourself, I mean for your remote IP | 18:34 |
| dcider | Yancho, any torrent engine | 18:35 |
| innomen | janisozaur, so it would simply run and not have a terminal window? like when you launch soemthing with alt f2? if so, how do i associate a file with that? | 18:35 |
| aeon-ltd | kyentei: then open it in a text editor and type 'Xcursor.theme: [then type the name of the cursor theme] | 18:35 |

| arand | pinesipsip: I don't think there is a straightforward one, from terminal I think you'd have to mess about in the profile directory if you relly need to do it without starting firefox | 19:45 |
| Kazakh | damn, the home key doesn't work on xchat? | 19:45 |

Some folders do not have any rights for the 'other' users (eg. rwx------) and I am not the owner. As these files are on a CD-ROM I cannot chown the files (I get a read-only error). So how can I copy the files from the CD? Many thanks | 20:19 |

| Blehk | whileimhere: if you make it a deb, you can convert it for any of the distros, there are walkthroughs on that as well. | 21:05 |
| Younder | whileimhere, no, ubuntu is essentially a subset of debian. and deb files are identical | 21:05 |
| Blehk | whileimhere: adding "ubuntu" to your search couldn't hurt either. | 21:05 |
| whileimhere | IC thank you all. | 21:05 |
| kibibyte | why you provide so fuking bugged pieces of software not tested | 21:05 |
| guntbert | Younder: that is not true in this simplicity | 21:06 |
| cristo | arand: to tell you the truth I can't really remember about which is the boot disk, I installed a distro based on ubuntu 9.04 and the old grub worked perfectly.

| Blehk | kibibyte: sounds like a good time for you to tackle it then | 21:10 |
| * erUSUL *plonk* | 21:10 | |
| arand | cristo: ok, so the windows partition is probably the one you are booting from, and where the grub2 mbr is located, and if just using the normal install you would have ubuntu root "/" on sdb1, and no boot partiton, so no problem there. What I'm assuming the problem is, is that grub is unable to locate the rest of "itself" which is located on the sdb1 ubuntu partition. | 21:10 |
| bradland | kibibyte: what do you expect anyone here to do about it? | 21:10 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | Blehk, heh i couldn't agree more... but i just don't have time to learn gdb now... i have to show this to my professor tomorrow | 21:10 |

| erUSUL | blacksun7: you can just loop over the archives extract them in temp dir take a name from the contents rename. but it is not a oneliner so you will have to invest some time in it | 21:35 |
| martin____ | Hey guys, my name is Martin. I'm from a Company called Arcacell. I'm a System admin and a recruiter at the same time, we started arcacell so we can hire people just like us. I was wondering what you guys think: Along with submitting CV's, you also have the option of taking a technical test, that will be forwarded to the client. What do you guys think? | 21:35 |
| erUSUL | blacksun7: also being different archive types make it harder | 21:35 |
| ScabbyMadman | so blacksun7 Im guessing the #name as recovered somehow needs to be examined....to uniquely identify the contents | 21:35 |
| blacksun7 | ScabbyMadman, yes | 21:35 |
| eddym | hey did any1 setup mac on linux | 21:35 |
| arand | cristo: hmm, test what " ls -lh /media/tmp/boot/grub | grep core.img " produces? | 21:35 |
| blacksun7 | erUSUL, i figured it wouldnt be a one-liner and i'll take it one archive type at a time | 21:36 |

| ubottu | martin____: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 21:36 |
| martin____ | ah, sorry! | 21:36 |
| ScabbyMadman | and blacksun7 say you opened one example up with unrar what do you see? | 21:36 |
| martin____ | Thanks very much. | 21:36 |
| arand | cristo: or actually, just " ls -lh /media/tmp/boot/grub " (use pastebin) | 21:36 |
| martin____ | .leave | 21:36 |
| blacksun7 | ScabbyMadman, i see the contents of the rar, all seem to be intact that i've opened | 21:36 |
| marty | hi all | 21:36 |

| zubrin | hello | 21:36 |
| ScabbyMadman | blacksun7, and theres nothing unique from one archive to another that stands o ut...thats thekey | 21:37 |

| ToastyMallows | Hi if anyone can help I just have a couple questions about some problems I've been having regarding my current upgrade to 9.10 | 21:37 |
| blacksun7 | ScabbyMadman, well each archive has different contents | 21:37 |
| knoppies | Im using Cairo-dock2.0. when I start up thunderbird from the launcher, it creates a new icon rather than using the launcher. Is there anyway to get it to use the launcher instead? | 21:37 |
| Guest72268 | what kind of problem toasty? | 21:38 |
| afjafjueha | how can i make a folder to the home directory?? | 21:38 |
| ToastyMallows | Well a while ago I changed my password and ever since ubuntu has been asking me to type in my OLD password to make my wireless work, any way to fix that? | 21:38 |
| erUSUL | afjafjueha: ? | 21:38 |
| ScabbyMadman | blacksun7, the only option that comes tomind is that you might try to insert a ($date) directive when renaming the archives | 21:39 |
| Guest72268 | i think the probblem is in the keyring, right? | 21:39 |
| ScabbyMadman | blacksun7, does that make sense? | 21:39 |
| afjafjueha | erUSUL, I want to create a folder to my home directory. now when i press it there is only one folder that says my name. when i right click the option to create a new folder isn't available | 21:39 |
| neon_ | i installed tvtime and i get picture but no sound, ne1 knows how to fix this, i asked in the tvtime channel but no one answer thx | 21:40 |
| ToastyMallows | yea but I tried changing the keyring from a tutorial online but it didn't have the same options as my computer had | 21:40 |
| blacksun7 | here's what i'm thinking: for loop; do unrar /tmp; mv current_archive name_of_/tmp_filename1; rm /tmp | 21:40 |
| ScabbyMadman | and blacksun7 and a good place to look for examples are some log rolling scripts...scripts that roll over system logs | 21:40 |
| afjafjueha | erUSUL, Can you help me? | 21:40 |
| kostkon | afjafjueha, it seems you have a permissions problem | 21:41 |
| ScabbyMadman | blacksun7, that s looks like a good start | 21:41 |
| erUSUL | afjafjueha: right click on a empty portion of the file browser "inside" the home folder | 21:41 |
| afjafjueha | kostkon, okay how do I change it? | 21:41 |
| erUSUL | afjafjueha: Places>Home | 21:41 |
| afjafjueha | erUSUL, yes I have done that | 21:41 |
| ScabbyMadman | if you insert a ($date) variable in the renaming with a time qualifier youre in business | 21:41 |
| ScabbyMadman | blacksun7, if you insert a ($date) variable in the renaming with a time qualifier youre in business | 21:42 |
| blacksun7 | might have found what i needed here http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?s=b52eff0dbccfbcc1d8e0a80da72e7d5b&showtopic=843662&pid=591866370&st=15&#entry591866370 | 21:42 |
| erUSUL | afjafjueha: that should work. do not right click on a folder icon. do it on empty portion of the window | 21:42 |
| afjafjueha | erUSUL, the option to create a new folder is visible but not available. | 21:42 |
| dmatt | !grub2 | 21:42 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 21:42 |
| erUSUL | afjafjueha: grayed out ? | 21:42 |
| cankoy | afjafjueha: ordinary users are not meant to create folder directly under /home | 21:42 |
| afjafjueha | erUSUL, yes | 21:42 |
| blacksun7 | too bad its in vb.. | 21:43 |
| ScabbyMadman | blacksun7, that link is just about pastebin quality ;) | 21:43 |
| afjafjueha | erUSUL, Any suggestions? | 21:43 |
| afjafjueha | cankoy, okay but this one python tutorial suggests that I make a folder called python_examples in the home folder | 21:44 |
| erUSUL | afjafjueha: are you sure is your home folder ? | 21:44 |
| afjafjueha | erUSUL, quite sure :) | 21:44 |
| craplja | EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEminem The best Rapper ! | 21:45 |
| erUSUL | afjafjueha: in terminal « mkdir ~/python_examples » | 21:45 |
| ScabbyMadman | blacksun7, that stuff in the link doesent exactly look like bash shell code...but if you can glue it onto a linux box somehow.. | 21:45 |
| knoppies | with the compiz desktop wall, is there a way to get a different background on each desktop? | 21:45 |
| cankoy | afjafjueha: your home folder is /home/<yourname>, not /home | 21:45 |
| === bruno is now known as Guest29765 | ||
| afjafjueha | oh | 21:45 |
| erUSUL | afjafjueha: lol | 21:45 |
| afjafjueha | thanks for the help | 21:46 |
| ToastyMallows | Can someone please tell me how to change the password on the wireless keyring so that I can change it to my new password and not my old one? | 21:46 |
| KnifeySpooney | Is there any way to loopback my audio output to act as my microphone input? i want the sounds that come from my computer to be detected as a microphone for my webcam. | 21:46 |
| VCoolio | knoppies: you can set different wallpapers with compiz, don't know if wall copies that, would expect so | 21:46 |
| knoppies | VCoolio, I will try that. Never thought about trying that, thanks. | 21:46 |
| cristo | arand: so what is the problem | 21:46 |
| KnifeySpooney | ToastyMallows: go to the terminal and run the program 'seahorse' | 21:46 |
| soreau | knoppies: There is a way, but you will lose your desktop icons | 21:46 |
| knoppies | soreau, Ive never really been a fan of desktop icons, so thats a small price to pay. Im listening. | 21:47 |
| ToastyMallows | knifeyspoony: ok what do i do from here | 21:47 |
| ScabbyMadman | VCoolio, is there a way to force compiz to not run when on battery power....? | 21:47 |
| ScabbyMadman | write a compiz daemon? | 21:47 |
| VCoolio | knoppies: by default nautilus draws the desktop, with one wallpaper and the icons; if you set it with compiz nautilus doesn't draw the desktop anymore; about laptops I know nothing | 21:48 |
| soreau | knoppies: To set a wallpaper for each viewport using gnome, disable Nautilus from drawing the desktop by setting the gconf key /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop to "false" with gconf-editor. Then, set the four wallpapers in ccsm>Wallpaper | 21:48 |
| ScabbyMadman | VCoolio, I was thnking about a compiz daemon that would simply stop the compiz when on battery power and then restart compiz when plugged in | 21:49 |
| ScabbyMadman | feasable? | 21:49 |
| arand | cristo: hmm, not quite sure... Let's try this: " sudo mount --bind /dev /media/tmp/dev " | 21:49 |
| arand | cristo: then " sudo chroot /media/tmp " | 21:49 |
| arand | cristo: and then " grub-setup --directory=/boot/grub '(hd0)' " | 21:49 |
| KnifeySpooney | ToastyMallows: Open the "Passwords: default" keyring, then double-click the entry for "Network secret for ____". You should see a toggle for "Password" where you can change it. | 21:50 |
| knoppies | Thanks VCoolio and soreau I will try that. | 21:50 |
| KnifeySpooney | Is there any way to loopback my audio output to act as my microphone input? i want the sounds that come from my computer to be detected as a microphone for my webcam. | 21:50 |
| VCoolio | ScabbyMadman: you could write any daemon-like script that measures energy and acts accordingly, but I'm not the one to ask | 21:50 |
| roboboy | how do I see what version of xorg I have? | 21:51 |
| ToastyMallows | KnifeySpoony, thanks, also, do you know why 9.10 displays my login name on the toolbar and not my real name? | 21:51 |
| badp | Hello. How can I tell wheter I'm running Ubuntu 32bits or 64bits, and can I switch to the latter without a full reinstall? | 21:51 |
| epinky | roboboy: Xorg -version (X uppercase) | 21:52 |
| roboboy | badp: type uname -a | 21:52 |
| roboboy | ahh I was missing X upper case, thank you epinky | 21:52 |
| badp | Linux delta 2.6.31-15-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 10 14:54:29 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux | 21:52 |
| roboboy | badp: also I'm pretty sure you could switch out the kernels but then all your binaries might not work, probably best to reinstall | 21:52 |
| roboboy | badp: the i686 part makes me think you aren't running 64 bit, otherwise it would say x86_64 | 21:52 |
| badp | Thanks, roboboy | 21:53 |
| badp | You raise good points. | 21:53 |
| roboboy | why do you want to switch bit depths anyway? | 21:53 |
| urbeg | yeah mines is x86_64 and it is 64 bit | 21:53 |
| roboboy | unless you have 4 gigs of memory... | 21:53 |
| badp | Use my 4th gig of ram, to mention one reason. | 21:53 |
| badp | Indeed. | 21:53 |

| aegimius | hi. how do i get my remote desktop to work? i want to see what is going on on another pc from my pc. we're on the same LAN | 21:53 |
| seidos | is a package in a repository binary files? | 21:53 |
| badp | seidos: if I got your question right -- yes. | 21:54 |
| KnifeySpooney | knoppies: Hmm. I don't much want to go out and buy something when i think this can be done with software | 21:54 |
| CoverSlide | yes but you can download the source | 21:54 |
| knoppies | KnifeySpooney, you could build your own, but yea. Im not sure how to do it with software. I knew how to do it in winXP, but not in linux. | 21:54 |
| roboboy | aegimius: I can't answer whatever remote desktop is, but you might try installing and configuring a VNC package | 21:54 |

| truk77 | I'm trying to set the loglevel of X11 in Jaunty. Can anybody help? | 21:55 |
| aegimius | thanks robo | 21:55 |
| seidos | badp: so to build packages in a repository one would have to compile the source into binary files, then package the binary files into a "package" | 21:55 |
| badp | indeed, seidos. I think the whole process is automated | 21:55 |
| roboboy | seidos: thats how its done, yes | 21:55 |

| narretgrez | with voice modulation? | 21:56 |
| courpse | KnifeySpooney, I have looked for the same thing, i ended up needing to getting a usb soundcard, ($7 NZD) and looping thru 2 sound devices. | 21:56 |
| narretgrez | to prevent the squeaky voice thing? | 21:56 |
| zopiac | Im having a problem with rhythmbox freezing when I try to open a Shoutcast stream; it worked earlier today though. terminal output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/322793/ | 21:56 |

| badp | narretgrez: vlc works on ubuntu too. | 21:56 |
| serengeti | narretgrez, vlc? | 21:56 |
| courpse | vlc ftw. | 21:56 |
| Danny_ | erm | 21:56 |
| narretgrez | vlc has voice modulation support? | 21:56 |
| Danny_ | new here | 21:56 |
| Danny_ | can anyone help me? | 21:56 |
| badp | seidos: I haven't done it myself, but I believe it can be. | 21:57 |
| courpse | narretgrez, you can move the sync around i know that.. | 21:57 |
| knoppies | narretgrez, dont know, but VLC is so awsome I recomend you get it anyway. | 21:57 |
| epinky | aegimius: I know it's a bit outdated but basically it's the same for Karmic http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-use-remote-desktop-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html | 21:57 |
| narretgrez | knoppies: i really need the voice modulating thing tho | 21:57 |
| KnifeySpooney | courpse: Hmm. sounds interesting, might try it | 21:57 |
| aegimius | epinky danke | 21:57 |
| seidos | badp: ah, you mean the process of compiling and packaging can be automated | 21:57 |
| ScabbyMadman | Danny_, whats your question? | 21:57 |
| Danny_ | has anyone been having issues with the grub file after the 9.10 update? | 21:57 |
| narretgrez | knoppies: but thakns for the rec | 21:57 |
| badp | I'm no developer, check the wiki for more information :) | 21:57 |
| epinky | aegimius: bite :) | 21:57 |
| cankoy | seidos: there're both binary and source packages in repo.s | 21:58 |
| roboboy | My Xorg version output shows X.Org X Server 1.4.0.90, however the video card driver I'm trying to install specifies that I use XOrg version...X.Org 6.7, 6.8, 6.9, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, or 7.4 | 21:58 |
| knoppies | narretgrez, Im not even sure what you mean by voice modulation, where it changes the pitch as you change the speed? | 21:58 |
| Danny_ | after reboot i get an error and come to this cmd line that has sh:grub> | 21:58 |
| ScabbyMadman | Danny_, can you be more detailed? | 21:58 |
| narretgrez | knoppies: yes | 21:58 |
| roboboy | any ideas on how that line maps with the other numbers? | 21:58 |
| knoppies | narretgrez, yes it does that. | 21:58 |
| badp | Then yes, narretgrez | 21:58 |
| badp | I can't see why that would be a feature, at any rate :P | 21:58 |
| narretgrez | knoppies + badp : ohhh ok, thanks | 21:58 |
| seidos | i wish i could automate compiling, it was time consuming downloading and compiling svns for enlightenment, but i read the ver in the jaunty repository is unstable | 21:58 |

| badp | It's more like a side effect | 21:58 |
| Danny_ | GNU BRUB version 1.97~1.97beta4 | 21:58 |
| KnifeySpooney | ToastyMallows: Sorry, i don't think there's a way to display real name instead of your username on the taskbar. See this wishlist on Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-applet/+bug/475443 | 21:58 |
| seidos | so far it's been working pretty good, considering usually compilation has failed for me in the past | 21:58 |
| arand | cristo: ping | 21:59 |

Which seems like very big files for drivers!. However they may contain different versions or something dunno am downloading first one now | 22:11 |
| thiebaude | knoppies, i had no problems on a clean install | 22:11 |
| ctop | knoppies: yes | 22:11 |

| wasteland-ghost | does anyone using ubuntu on laptop?? | 22:12 |
| urbeg | knoppies: yeah i like 9.10 | 22:12 |
| knoppies | thanks thiebaude, ctop. Will try it out then. | 22:12 |
| thiebaude | knoppies, ok, cool | 22:12 |
| Rosey | where at | 22:12 |
| branstrom_ | wasteland-ghost: yes, why? | 22:12 |
| knoppies | thanks urbeg. | 22:12 |
| === branstrom_ is now known as branstrom | ||
| ctop | knoppies: thats the best way to do it | 22:12 |
| asheron | I am using ubuntu on laptop | 22:12 |
| ergh | unless your response earlier you just said "ergh" not refering to me | 22:12 |
| billisnice | 9.10 has issues...computer hangs at times and the screen redraw is terrible on my dell | 22:12 |
| simplexio | 9.10 is alot faster than 9.04.. but 8.04 was more mature as system, specialy when speaking sound | 22:12 |
| ScabbyMadman | Rosey there is a log viewer utility in system>administration as I recall | 22:12 |

| Azeotrope | How can I make a user to appear in the login list window?? I have some vsftpd user that appear and I really don't want to | 22:13 |
| knoppies | ctop, creates more problems than are solvable. | 22:13 |
| simplexio | dist-upgrade suck when 9.04->9.10 | 22:13 |
| urbeg | 9.10 has some issues but give it a bit of time to get updated | 22:13 |
| billisnice | 8.04 is solid | 22:13 |
| billisnice | and no issues | 22:13 |
| wasteland-ghost | I discovered, that my HP Pavilion dv7-3060us cannot wake up from suspend mode. It's freezes | 22:13 |
| marks256 | What would cause my mouse to randomly click, and move the cursor around the screen like a rabid banshee? It's not a hardware thing, as it does it with many mice. I believe it is an ubuntu thing. | 22:13 |
| ScabbyMadman | simplexio, always | 22:13 |
| branstrom | I just did a clean install on an Asus laptop, 9.10 is doing fine, except for an issue with wifi that I solved, now I have an issue with the sound | 22:13 |
| ctop | knoppies: i never had issues updating with update manager but fresh install is alway recommended :-) | 22:13 |
| simplexio | ScabbyMadman: went pretty smooth 8.04 -> 9.04 | 22:14 |
| branstrom | And I tried the realtime kernel, now I can't boot with the generic kernel anymore... | 22:14 |
| billisnice | 9.10 should have never been released so soon with bugs... | 22:14 |
| asheron | 9.10 goes great out of the box for me just had to add ati drivers and all good | 22:14 |
| simplexio | offcoutse i had to rm .gnome oand so on but smooth | 22:14 |
| knoppies | ctop, I fiddle alot, so I would probably get issues. But thanks. | 22:14 |
| wasteland-ghost | does anyone else experience the same issue? | 22:14 |
| maco | billisnice: of course 8.04 is solid *now*...its had over 18mo of LARGE QUANTITIES of testers | 22:15 |
| ScabbyMadman | simplexio, never tried that ...but hen again I always tar up my ~ and .../src prior to an upgrade/install | 22:15 |

| simplexio | but fresh and clean install on 9.10 is much better thatn 9.04 in vbox system, no experince on native install lately | 22:15 |
| branstrom | wasteland-ghost: my Asus A6m wakes from sleep fine | 22:15 |
| branstrom | Oh, suspend mode, haven't tried that | 22:15 |
| billisnice | for users not programmers, 8.04 is the way to go | 22:15 |
| ScabbyMadman | wasteland-ghost, maybe not enough swap? | 22:15 |
| wasteland-ghost | ScabbyMadman: 8gb swap, 4gb ram | 22:15 |
| urbeg | but is 8.04 not becoming outdated? | 22:16 |
| knoppies | billisnice, isnt 9.04 the major release? | 22:16 |
| jackH | hi all ! | 22:16 |
| billisnice | it worked better than 9.10 | 22:16 |
| maco | this is a bit OT for a support channel, foks | 22:16 |
| knoppies | hi jackH | 22:16 |
| maco | *folks | 22:16 |
| billisnice | i hope 10.04 is solid... | 22:16 |
| simplexio | 8.04 was better because it used alsa sound as default, pulseaudio starts to be ready nowdays.. | 22:17 |
| ScabbyMadman | simplexio, couldnt agree more on that score | 22:17 |
| billisnice | if you open firefox in 9.10 and look at the upper left there is a bug. It does not open fluidly.. | 22:17 |
| kostkon | simplexio, wrong. 8.04 had pulse also, just didn't send the alsa sound through pulse. that cause a lot of probs | 22:17 |
| kostkon | caused* | 22:18 |
| simplexio | i mean pulseaduio offer some nice options, but it isnt that solid as alsa, but its getting better and one way to get there is have it default in ubuntu | 22:18 |
| === osiris__ is now known as x4Fx53x49x52x49x | ||
| ScabbyMadman | simplexio, pulse leaves a whole lot out, like an obvious way to use more than one sound card at the same time | 22:18 |
| kostkon | simplexio, but it's the default, already, since 8.04 | 22:18 |
| marks256 | Any ideas on what would cause a mouse to go berzerk? It's not a hardware thing. It has to be software. Mouse jumps around the screen and acts sluggish every once in a while | 22:18 |
| simplexio | kostkon: uhh. when it wasnt default, i was sure that it was 8.04 | 22:19 |
| RichW | ScabbyMadman, Im sure I had it outputting to two at once before. | 22:19 |
| urbeg | i dont see any bug with firefox opening? | 22:19 |
| billisnice | see the slowness in one section | 22:19 |
| kostkon | simplexio, and, the prob is that pulse is being blamed for everything | 22:19 |
| Julia_ | how can I execute command on startup in terminal? I want to start virtualbox headless machine and some custom scripts. | 22:20 |
| kostkon | simplexio, there is a pulse-phobia when in the majority of cases the prob is with alsa or with the app | 22:20 |
| simplexio | kostkon: my biggest problems have been allways puls, when it dies or something dosent support it from basic isntall | 22:20 |
| kostkon | simplexio, and not with pulse per se | 22:20 |
| ScabbyMadman | RichW, if you can point my nose to howto make pulse offer two sound cards at thesame time ...Id appreciate it | 22:20 |
| roboboy | is there a linux program to defragment and shrink an NTFS partition without screwing up the data on it? | 22:20 |
| ScabbyMadman | roboboy, hmmm | 22:21 |
| RichW | ScabbyMadman, Have you played with the official gui tools, padsp etc | 22:21 |
| urbeg | does ubuntu need to be defragged? | 22:21 |
| ScabbyMadman | gparted? | 22:21 |
| roboboy | okies I check it out | 22:21 |
| simplexio | not that i dont like pulse, its been ready for experimental long time. maybe niot for major release like ubuntu. but that is price to pay for it get ready | 22:21 |
| === mrapplecomputer1 is now known as hello | ||
| ScabbyMadman | RichW to be honest no | 22:21 |
| === hello is now known as mrapplecomputer1 | ||
| chris231989atwor | Julia_: i was able to run virtualbox headless before, cant remmeber how though, but it is toltaly possible | 22:21 |
| RichW | ScabbyMadman, That may be the problem, they offer more complex options. | 22:21 |
| kostkon | simplexio, yeah, again i suppose it means the alsa driver is buggy. and if an app doesn't work with alsa, and thus not with pulse, but tries to access the device directly. again not pulse's fault. | 22:22 |
| hugo_ | hola | 22:22 |

| serengeti | can't believe it... blur plugin finally works with fglrx! (catalyst 9.11) | 22:23 |
| simplexio | little better pulse controller that shows features in english, not nerd for networks options and stuff. then it hit major time. + offcourse some easy release for windows to handle pulse streams easily would be killer app | 22:23 |
| zamba | i don't have that listed under clients | 22:23 |
| ScabbyMadman | Curs0r, what driver loads for your usbWifi device? | 22:23 |
| urbeg | yeah, but just out of curiosity does a ubuntu only system need to be defragged or is that even possible | 22:23 |
| Blehk | does ubuntu have a wgetpaste equivalent? | 22:23 |

| neon_ | i installed tvtime and i get picture but no sound, ne1 knows how to fix this, i asked in the tvtime channel but no one answer thx | 22:24 |
| ScabbyMadman | Curs0r, well then | 22:24 |
| Curs0r | the native ralink driver reports 100% ok but no iface and same with ndiswrapper | 22:24 |
| ScabbyMadman | Curs0r, I guess youve seen the ralink website? | 22:24 |
| swtaarrs | if I disconnect and reconnect my USB keyboard, my custom modifier key setup is lost (swapping ctrl and caps lock, etc). this started happening with 9.04 and hasn't been fixed in 9.10, anyone know what's wrong/how I can fix it? | 22:24 |
| simplexio | kostkon: like i had 0 times problems with alsa, and pulse like 10 times on same hardware over little over two years... ofcourse source of problem couöd be that pulse show alsa problem but anyway. i havent got anyproblems with pulse on 9.10 | 22:25 |
| kostkon | simplexio, no probs on 9.10. that's good then :) | 22:25 |
| Curs0r | What cracks me up the most is that ralink has a firmware but no flash utility | 22:26 |
| simplexio | kostkon: but i use 9.10 in vbox only.. and its faster than 9.04. like i said havent run linux in native desktop for few months. | 22:26 |

| simplexio | kostkon: offcourse what i want currently isnt ubuntu mainstream. like latest geos lib + postgis + postgresql + pgadmin etc.. | 22:27 |

| simplexio | ArtemZ: what is replacing gimp ? | 22:30 |
| trism | ArtemZ: it will still be in the main repository, just not installed by default...just sudo apt-get install gimp | 22:30 |
| ArtemZ | simplexio: they going to replace it by f-spot. ITS CRAZY | 22:30 |
| urbeg | why would they remove gimp??? | 22:30 |
| RichW | f-spot? they not really going to switch with that? | 22:30 |
| maco | urbeg: something to do with f-spot being able to handle all normal photo editing tasks anyway and thus duplicating functionality | 22:31 |
| bradland | man this is cool | 22:31 |
| simplexio | ArtemZ: didnt know that you could use f-spot to draw+etc.. . | 22:31 |
| coz_ | replacing gimp? | 22:31 |
| bradland | i just wrote a shell script that logs me in to a network device and automatically sends all the login info | 22:31 |
| VCoolio | ArtemZ: Ì won't, it's a frustrating world for just some beginner's easy painting; | 22:31 |
| bradland | because these things won't accept keypairs | 22:31 |
| maco | *sigh* gimp will still be in the repos, still be in main, still be on dvd. it will not be installed by default because it is more powerful & difficult than the average user needs | 22:31 |
| ArtemZ | http://digg.com/linux_unix/Gimp_Will_Be_Removed_From_Ubuntu_10_04_The_Lucid_Lynx | 22:31 |
| simplexio | ahh.. f-spot to handle "basic" photo editing.. not bad idea. gimp has been allways full featured and quite big suite | 22:32 |

| chiques | urbeg, yes | 22:47 |

| Blackjack | I do not "arrive" has extract several archives to .rar (10) in a .iso | 22:47 |
| ScabbyMadman | Blackjack, Im not sure what your issue is | 22:48 |
| urbeg | can Rhythmbox rip to mp3 by default? | 22:48 |
| ScabbyMadman | urbeg, soundjuicer can | 22:48 |
| Blackjack | sorry i am french, but i don't loggin in freenod fr xD | 22:48 |
| Blackjack | my edition is 9.10 koala | 22:49 |
| serengeti | urbeg, it can - you just need to install gstreamer-plugins-bad if I remember correctly | 22:49 |
| ScabbyMadman | urbeg, that is you have to set up soundjuicer to rip in mp3 | 22:49 |
| serengeti | urbeg, and just pick the mp3 profile in preferences | 22:50 |
| urbeg | thanks i'll try it out | 22:50 |
| epinky | Blackjack: can't you enter on #ubuntu-fr? | 22:50 |

| Blackjack | epinky, i missing my pasword ... | 22:51 |
| Blackjack | but, i search ^^ | 22:51 |
| serengeti | urbeg, or maybe it was gstreamer-plugins-bad-multiverse? you can install both to be sure | 22:51 |
| bostikforever | It gives this error saying that it is waiting for /, temp and swap to be mounted... | 22:51 |
| timClicks | bostikforever: have you tried reinstalling via a livecd? | 22:51 |
| ScabbyMadman | gone | 22:51 |

| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: I have been installing flashplugin-nonfree for several ubuntu versions and it's worked well in firefox. Mabe try that package and restart firefox | 22:53 |
| donald_ | well - I suppose it back to windows for me - tired of this sh** not working | 22:53 |
| bostikforever | @timClicks: that will be an option... but what will happen to my applications? Plus I'm not sure which to re-install; whether it's the 9.04 or the 9.10... | 22:53 |
| donald_ | can't use my laptop without wireless | 22:53 |
| JonathanEllis | ardchoille: Hardy is the latest release that my computer can run. I have tried Intrepid, Jaunty and Karmic and none of them work: on all of them the graphics are borked. | 22:54 |
| ardchoille | !wireless | donald_ have you tried this? | 22:54 |
| ubottu | donald_ have you tried this?: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 22:54 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: Ah, ok | 22:54 |
| timClicks | bostikforever: when you installed ubuntu 1st time, did you create a seperate partition for /home? | 22:54 |
| SeaPhor | anyone else noticing this,,, middle mouse wheel was scrolling,,, after updates it does not scroll any more? (laptop with USB Mouse) | 22:54 |
| bostikforever | no I didn't | 22:54 |
| zopiac | erUSUL: all right i will check it out | 22:54 |
| timClicks | bostikforever: not good... hrm. | 22:54 |
| JonathanEllis | ardchoille: I have both flashplugin-nonfree and adobe-flashplugin. Do you think it could be a conflict between the two of them? | 22:54 |
| timClicks | bostikforever: i recommend backing up to an external hdd | 22:55 |
| serengeti | urbeg, I'll check it for you, wait a sec | 22:55 |
| donald_ | I've tried just about everything | 22:55 |
| timClicks | bostikforever: (your home directory) | 22:55 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: Maybe, try uninstalling the Adobe package and see. you can always reinstall it if that isn't the problem | 22:55 |
| timClicks | bostikforever: and then doing a clean install with 9.10 | 22:55 |
| serengeti | urbeg, I have the mp3 profile and it came with one of the gstreamer-plugins packages | 22:55 |
| donald_ | my card bcm94311mcg just won't work | 22:55 |
| urbeg | serengeti, thanks | 22:55 |
| trism | urbeg: it seems to be in the gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse package | 22:56 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, use the STA driver' | 22:56 |
| trism | urbeg: libmp3lame0 | 22:56 |
| zopiac | erUSUL: it doesnt seem to be what I want...i dont want a dropdown, perhaps there is an option in this? it is purely for aesthetics, so its nop big deal :P | 22:56 |
| urbeg | trism, i dont think i have that one installed | 22:56 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: Also, make sure you're running the latest firefox from the repos | 22:56 |
| donald_ | it's not coming up in the hardware drivers tool | 22:56 |
| weebl | Hello, I am installing a VPN Client which needs to be compiled in the kernel, which packages can I download to get the linux kernel source? | 22:56 |
| bostikforever | will that keep my apps? | 22:56 |
| donald_ | I'm running karmic | 22:56 |
| serengeti | urbeg, try -ugly | 22:56 |
| timClicks | bostikforever: well, ubuntu will load up from scratch with the default apps | 22:57 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: And I feel that it would be worth it to you to try and get the graphics running correctly on maybe Jaunty, this channel is the best place to ask questions | 22:57 |
| timClicks | bostikforever: (this would have happened anyway) | 22:57 |
| ardchoille | I use Jaunty and it is awesome | 22:57 |
| timClicks | bostikforever: but you'll need to use the software centre or apt-get in the command line to tweak your PC | 22:57 |
| serengeti | urbeg, gstreamer-plugins-ugly-multiverse | 22:57 |
| weebl | anye know which packages i need to recompile the kernel? | 22:58 |
| serengeti | it depends on liblame so it's probably that one | 22:58 |
| urbeg | serengeti, i dont have that one installed. i'll try it here no | 22:58 |
| urbeg | w | 22:58 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, use the STA driver' http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php | 22:58 |
| serengeti | good luck :) | 22:58 |
| JonathanEllis | ardchoille: That was going to be my next question. I installed swiftfox from the http://getswiftfox.com/builds/debian unstable non-free repo and for some reason it doesnt want to update. By the way, I spent more than 40 hours trying to get graphics to work correctly on both Jaunty and Karmic before going back to good old Hardy. | 22:59 |
| donald_ | seaphor: do you know how I install that ? I've already downloaded it, but I don't know how to install | 22:59 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: It's a good idea to stick with Ubuntu packages, you have installed a debian package and these two distros are different. Never mix distro packages | 22:59 |
| mrqismrx | I recently installed unbutu 9.10 and I am very happy with it. I have used linux a couple of years ago but felt that I have more need for it now. I got a question though. It feels like when I open a folder (GUI) and drag it around it feels like it's a bit "lagish" like it's not smooth. Is it like this in ubuntu or can I change any setting to improve the "smoothness" ? I have a Sony vaio laptop VGN FW 21E which have 4gb | 23:00 |
| mrqismrx | ram dual 2 core 2.26ghz and 256mb ATI video card so don't think that it's my computer that is to slow? | 23:00 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, get all updates first, then check System>Admin..>Hardware Drivers... | 23:00 |
| donald_ | seaphor: btw, my card doesn't show up with lspci | 23:00 |
| urbeg | serengeti, yeah it was that one. you will save me a lot of converting. thanks | 23:00 |
| serengeti | np :) | 23:00 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: The only updates you will get are the ones coming from the official ubuntu repos and any PPA's that you have in your sources | 23:00 |
| epinky | weebl: kernel-headers buil-essential I guess | 23:00 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, do lshw -C network the "C" is capital | 23:00 |
| Pupeno | How do you do a square cropping on Gimp? | 23:01 |
| JonathanEllis | archoille: So why dont I get updates from the swiftfox repo? I have it in my sources. | 23:01 |
| serengeti | Pupeno: with Shift | 23:01 |
| Pupeno | serengeti: it doesn't seem to that. | 23:02 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: maybe there haven't been any updates? Regardless, you are using a debian repo in your sources and that's a bad thing to do on Ubuntu | 23:02 |
| donald_ | seaphor: nothing seemed to happen with that command | 23:03 |
| trism | Pupeno: you can also in the Rectangle Select dialog set a fixed aspect ratio of 1:1 | 23:03 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, do sudo lshw -C network the "C" is capital | 23:03 |
| serengeti | Pupeno, but it does: if you keep shift pressed while making a selection, it will turn out square | 23:03 |
| trism | Pupeno: then Image/Crop to Selection | 23:03 |
| Pupeno | it doesn't work if you press shift before starting the crop. | 23:03 |
| mrqismrx | I am running gnome. what applications do I need so I can use the cornerns of my screen as shortcuts for effects like Scale and stuff? | 23:04 |
| donald_ | seaphor: that's what I did - it showed 'pci sysfs' then 'scsi' and the cd rom spun up, then nothing | 23:04 |
| serengeti | mrqismrx: compizconfig settings manager | 23:05 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, is this a laptop? | 23:05 |
| umut | help | 23:05 |
| JonathanEllis | ardchoille: There have been updates but none have ever been downloaded. I will remove the repo I guess. Trouble is firefox is just so damn slow! I was keen to get it faster any way I could. | 23:05 |
| donald_ | seaphor: hardware drivers only shows three different options for my nvidia - I have version 185 enabled ... and yes it's a laptop (Presario V6120US) | 23:06 |
| Theiya | JonathanEllis: have you considered using Chromium instead of firefox? | 23:06 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: May I pm you? I have some things you can do to make ff faster | 23:06 |

| djaerobie | i have been trying centerIM, but it dont support my language caracthers | 23:07 |
| djaerobie | ok | 23:07 |
| serengeti | mrqismrx: you're welcome :) | 23:07 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: that is one of the reasons we don't add debian reops to ubuntu sources :) | 23:08 |
| JonathanEllis | ardchoille: OK | 23:08 |
| Theiya | JonathanEllis: I am currently using it on Ubuntu 9.10 right now | 23:08 |
| Hb_Kai_ | djaerobie: http://pebrot.sourceforge.net/ | 23:08 |
| donald_ | seaphor: yes, there's a switch on the front, I have switched it back and forth with no effect (doesn't really say which is on, but I'm assuming towards the light/wireless icon is on) | 23:08 |
| serengeti | JonathanEllis, it's been working pretty well for me so far... but I still like firefox more | 23:08 |
| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: that dependency maybe in the ubuntu repos for you but I think the name is different | 23:08 |
| JonathanEllis | Theiya: Trouble is I like adblock plus and xmarks that I get in Firefox even if it does take an age to load pages | 23:09 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, check sudo lshw -C network with it in both positions | 23:09 |
| Theiya | JonathanEllis: Fair enough! :) Just thought I would mention the option. | 23:09 |

| ardchoille | JonathanEllis: chromium is supposed to be a very ice and fast web browser, I've never tried it but you might want to. I have ways of speeding up firefox if you're interested | 23:12 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, karmic, jaunty, and ibex,, | 23:12 |
| Funzo | dallas: cp x/file c/location | 23:12 |
| iski4kix2 | cp [source] [destination] | 23:12 |
| Funzo | yeah that looks a lot nicer lol | 23:13 |
| donald_ | seaphor: hmm - don't know why mine won't work | 23:13 |
| Dallas | thank you | 23:13 |

| donald_ | seaphor: command not found | 23:15 |
| maco | djura-san: might want to try xchat if you want irc-specific features like that | 23:15 |
| maco | djura-san: or xchat-gnome (which i find easier to use) | 23:16 |
| Dallas | okay, so. I need to edit and save a file that is in a directory where my user account doesn't have necessary permissions. How would I open the file as root to save this file? | 23:16 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, what? | 23:16 |
| donald_ | seaphor: sorry - typo | 23:16 |
| maco | Dallas: sudo | 23:16 |
| donald_ | seaphor: done | 23:16 |
| iski4kix2 | djura-san: you can add your irc.freenode.net account under manage accounts then just add a chat | 23:16 |
| djura-san | i have preinstalled pidgin so thats why im asking. I would like to use xchat but that is just bother... | 23:16 |
| djura-san | im lazy :) | 23:16 |
| SeaPhor | donald_, paste the link it give here | 23:17 |
| Dallas | maco: sudo edit sources.list? | 23:17 |
| maco | Dallas: "edit" isnt a command | 23:17 |
| Dallas | maco: right. | 23:17 |
| maco | Dallas: youll need to put your editor's name there | 23:17 |

| iski4kix2 | Dallas do you have gedit installed? | 23:19 |
| iski4kix2 | type gedit [name of file] | 23:19 |
| iski4kix2 | if you get an error just type in the command to get gedit | 23:20 |
| iski4kix2 | then you can sudo gedit [name of file] | 23:20 |
| LjL | "sudo gedit" is a bad idea, iski4kix2. | 23:20 |
| LjL | either use "sudoedit", or "gksudo gedit" | 23:20 |
| LjL | !gksudo | 23:21 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 23:21 |
| donald_ | seaphor: would that be because the driver's not installed? I know it's bcm94311mcg because I've seen the card itself and had it working in previous distros | 23:21 |
| donald_ | seaphor: ... and in windows | 23:21 |
| trism | mrqismrx: it should be automatically started after you install it, but you need to configure it with brightside-properties first before it will actually do anything | 23:22 |
| tado | with karmic, double click on the volume icon won't mute/turn on the volume. is there a way to reset it as it was before? it was quite handy... | 23:22 |
