thiebaude!emerald00:08
ubottuemerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives.00:08
pipegeekdrink_sti: and it depends on the version00:09

thiebaudewhat is the supported alternative to emerald?00:10
drink_stipipegeek: im on the vmware site and there are so many options. which one should i use to run this program?00:10
syriushow safe is it to install a program with a install script .sh to install it with?00:11
randomusrI-am-On-WinXP; I'm sorry to hear that00:11
syriusit downloads the programs need to comoile00:11
pipegeekdrink_sti: what do you want to do?  If you want to set up a new vm (if you don't have a prebuilt vm image) you probably want vmware server, which is free as in beer00:12
syriusrandomusr there is no windows version for current cinepaint00:12
SogorukuhnOne more question about the wallpaper. I have 2 monitors at the office and the nvidia driver. Both monitors are configured in the nvidia driver as 1 and when I set a wallpaper it looks not so good. Is there another way as dublicate the wallpaper with gimp to one doupblewallpaper?00:12
randomusrsyrius? do what?00:12
drink_stii just want to run ubuntu on my laptop to see what hardware problems i might have before i stick with it.00:14

jeffmris there a preference panel for disabling bluetooth on startup00:15
pipegeekdrink_sti: if you install ubuntu in a virtual machine, it'll be running on virtualized hardware, and you won't find out about issues with the real hardware00:15
pipegeekdrink_sti: Download the livecd image, and boot off it.  You'll get to a full desktop, and won't have to install anything00:15
pipegeekthen, if you want to install it, just double-click the 'install' icon00:15
BasketCase_Eeethis is probably a dumb question but in Netbook Remix 9.10 how do I organize or sort the icons for programs?00:15
dr3mrohey guys what do you thnk about Listen Music Player  is it good00:16
pcbuilder97why would my webcam work with youtube but not work with ustream??  dont they use the same plugin?00:16
drink_stipipegeek: i would like to set up dualboot but from what i read theres alot more to do than say if u have xp and vista. im still real new to linux and would like to mess around with it.00:16
pipegeekdrink_sti: sure.  What I'm suggesting is that, if you want to mess around, you boot off the CD and don't install it at all00:17
pipegeekyou'll have a full linux desktop, and you can install programs (into memory---they disappear when you reboot), browse the web, what have you00:17

BasketCase_Eeehmmm, now that I look harder it appears that the games and favorites tabs are the only ones that aren't sorted.  the favs I can kinda sort by removing and adding them in the proper order (kinda lame) and the games seem to be sorted by an undisplayed category which I would like to change00:20

MadSeaDogIs it possible to isolate some bad sector and create a partition with onlygood sector?00:29
treebueytrrrr00:29
SnausagesMadSeaDog: that should already be happening under the radar, unless the bad sector list has overflowed on that drive00:30
MadSeaDogSnausages,  okay... if Gparted tell me the hard drive has 59 bad sector... and windows refuse to boot is it overflowed?00:31
treebueyhiya. My fonts are messed up for firefox menus after the last update. also, a cyrillic like character is showing up whenver i am at a password prompt WITHIN xwindows. any ideas?00:31
SnausagesMadSeaDog: I don't know how gparted makes its count.  Typically the host PC can't see any bad sectors at all, even when there are some, because the drive hardware already reallocated them to spare sectors00:32
SnausagesMadSeaDog: I guess the thing to do is pull the SMART status for that drive, see if you have a matching count of 59 reallocations00:32
MadSeaDogSnausages,  how can i do that?00:33
arandHow can I force a window to a specific viewport despite it being started/refocussed/changing? the compiz settings only seem to do that when the application starts.00:33

VonnickYes it does00:34
SnausagesMadSeaDog: maybe try installing smartmontools?00:34

oxy_I downloaded the nvidia video card drivers from nvidia and the file is a .run file (NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-190.42-pkg2.run). How do I install this?00:36
SnausagesMadSeaDog: in modern drives, when a sector goes bad the HDD reallocates it to a spare sector before the host PC is ever aware of it.  So if your machine is telling you there are 59 bad sectors...  that makes me think it may actually be 59 + all the ones that the SMART system has already compensated for...00:36

yacc_MadSeaDog, mke2fs for example has the option -c => slow00:42

oxy_arand: It's a fairly common card. Geforce GTX 26000:43
yacc_In almost any normal situation it's not worth trying to safe it.00:43
MadSeaDogyacc_,  it's a ntfs partition...00:43
SuBsAmgnufreex not working00:43
yacc_MadSeaDog, modern hdds (as in the last 15 years or longer) do black sector remapping automatically.00:44

seidoswhen i paste text from vim to firefox, firefox freezes.  it's quite a bit of text though00:44
SnausagesMadSeaDog: seeing so many bad blocks counted from any tool would scare me into replacing the disk00:44
yacc_So even if you have an unrecoverable error, when you overwrite the sector it should go good again, because the hdd remaps it to a reserved area of blocks.00:44
seidosi'm using firefox 3.6 beta 1 though00:44
yacc_"unrecoverable read error"00:44
yacc_If you have an unrecoverable write error that usually means that the hdd has run out of replacement sectors.00:45
oxy_arand: Ill figure it out. Thanks for the help.00:45
arandoxy_: might be, in that case you could try installing from synaptic instead to do it the "ubuntu way"00:45
seidoswasn't a freeze, just took like 3 minutes to paste the text.  I think it's like 3 paragraphs00:45
yacc_So if you don't happen to be in the nowhere, with the next PC shop hundreds of miles away, ...00:45
oddhyenadid you try doing a hard format on the hard disk?00:45
MadSeaDogyacc_ so simply make it rearrenge the partition might be good enough?00:45

yacc_MadSeaDog, no you've got the equivalent of a car engine that is producing a thick black fume behind the car.00:46
yacc_oddhyena, no, for real lowlevel formats you need usually vendor specific utilities.00:47
yacc_MadSeaDog, It's also an economic question.00:47
yacc_Madkiss, OTOH, you can get 500GB hdds nowadays for ~40€ easily.00:47

darrenddoes anyone know if this pulseaudio nonsense is being addressed by the devs?00:48
darrend(i.e. it crashing apps every 20 mins)00:48
oddhyenai already asked about the modem recording a long time ago and got no answer XD00:48
neal__oddhyena, thats too bad00:49
neal__i'm sure it can be done, just now sure how00:49
plainasneal__ modem stands for modulator/demodulator, unless your modem comes with a recorder (which sounds unlikely) the answer is no00:49
aranddarrend: that is probably a specific issue, is it reported as abug?00:49
neal__i was thinking of using mgetty then say cat it into /dev/dsp or somesuch00:49
yacc_MadSeaDog, so you have to question yourself is your data worth less than 1€ per 12.5GB?00:49
jolaren(where scancode is either xx or e0xx, given in hexadecimal,\n"00:50
jolaren"  and keycode is given in decimal)\n"00:50
neal__well the modem can receive voicemail and fax, so i don't see a reason that you couldn't listen in00:50
darrendarand: there seem to be several already posted with many people reporting confirmations in comments.00:50
oddhyenai had a modem that I could hear stuff over the phone lines with when I tried to play multiplayer doom, I used my friend's phone number and I could hear "hello? hello?"00:50

plainasit should be possible to connect a modem to a computer and make a phone val00:52
yacc_Basically the important thing is that when the first unrecoverable write error pops up, the drive has already used up a sizeable chunk of replacement sectors, ...00:52
plainasin that case your modem would have to be able to route a sound signal00:53
plainasdirectly to the phone line00:53
MadSeaDogyacc_,  so after 59 ...00:53

joebixstill nothing03:32
donald_drivers don't show up in hardware drivers03:32
KindOnejoebix: do you see "Sound Cards"03:32
mhssupercom32: dual core machines have two cpu's on one die.03:32
mhssupercom32: the only difference is 1) for licensing some applications like Oracle, and b) memory bandwidth.03:33
joebixsound card?03:33
joebixwhere?03:33
supercom32mhs: Ok, memory bandwith is the only bottle neck then for a dual core cpu to complete with?03:33
joebixunder the sound preferences, I see hardware03:33
greezmunkeyGarbin, you could try that, but it should already be there, try this in a terminal "ps aux | grep -e work" (no quotes) and see if anything called network manager shows up03:33
mcurranlshw | grep 'sound'    maybe?03:34
mhssupercom32: its not much of a bottleneck, except for some HPC applications03:34
joebixand it says Internal Audio 1 output/1 input03:34
GarbinOK03:34
joebixAnalog Stereo Duplex03:34
KindOnejoebix: click the speaker icon, and when it open, you will see the text  "Sound Cards" and to the right of that, there should be your sound card. if there is, click it.03:34
akavmhs: Just looked at a video on the website. Wireshark looks like it might do the trick.03:34
akavmhs: I was using IPTraf, which has no time measurement that I can find.03:34

Billiardsupercom32: more than you will ever have linux suppors like 64 or something crazy03:36
mhsI was going to say 9603:36

mcurranwell does ubuntu know how to properly allocate usage for a core i7 or does that all happen in the cpu itself03:37
Garbingreezmunkey, the second column?03:37
KindOnejoebix: did you dix the issue?03:37
mhssupercom32: the reason Microsoft restricts the number of processors is not because their OS doesn't support it, but because if you are willing to pay lots of money for a system with 32 cores, they know you can pay thousands for an OS.03:37

ubuntunewbieHow to speed up ubuntu?04:07
Random832anyway, you can download the pakcage from http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libblkid1, and extract it by hand04:07
jonzbccI just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10. The graphical system monitor app shows memory resources being used at like 80% when ubuntu finishes logging in. (with the usual start up programs). It used to be (9.04) that the usual clutter of the start-up apps were only taking up a small amount of memory. So, I logged in (i am now) to failsafe gnome, and see everything is the way it was when I was at 9.04 (only 30% memory in use). Can anyone suggest w04:07
jonzbcchere to start? Or am I dumb for doing an upgrade and not a clean-install?04:07
mcurranI don't think startupmanager works in karmic04:07
stealth_Random832: ext4, I believe. I'd check, but libblkid.so.1 says there is no information avaliable.04:07
jribjonzbcc: figure out what applications are responsible for the memory usage exactly04:08
Jordan_Ustealth_: You can chroot in from a LiveCD and reinstall libblkid104:08
Random832stealth_, you may need to boot from a livecd to fix it04:08
Jordan_Ustealth_: What is the exact error you are getting?04:08
greezmunkeyubuntunewbie, in a terminal, run top, look at it...check your cpu %'s, swap size, and amount used, etc.04:08
stealth_Jordan_U, Random832: I know, which is why I'm asking where I can find the updated file. Ubuntu didn't upgrade it during the upgrade from 9.04, I'm assuming04:09
jonzbccjrib: well, when I was logged in normal Gnome, the "processes tab" of "system monitor" showed everything in the CPU column was at 0. should I just run "top" at the command line, and let you knwo what shows?04:09
Random832huh??04:09

loshajudaman: mcurran: re: why use a repo, I don't think it for dependencies, those are in the .deb file, I think it's so you can provide updates via update manager...04:29

flandersIs it possible to automatically split audio tracks in K3B by certain intervals (every X seconds) or into a specific number of parts? I know it can be done in Brasero (for GNOME), but I can only find an option to split tracks manually with K3B, not automatically?04:31

benay1has anyone here has experience with vmware player 3, ubuntu 9.10 as host, and vista as guest to have NAT works?04:37
mcurranKindOne:  I used to do it by running displayconfig-gtk, setting the display the way you want it with the vesa driver, restarting, and then replacing the vesa driver with nvidia in xorg.conf, the only problem, displayconfig-gtk is now obsolete, so you'll need to add some old repos in order to get it, or download it and all it's dependencies.04:37
greezmunkeyKindOne, I don't PM04:37
flanderslosha, I can use mp3splt-gtk to split the mp3 podcasts, but I was hoping K3B had a similar feature that Brasero has: auto-split tracks.04:38
KindOnegreezmunkey: okay04:38
^c|0ud^Can anyone tell me how to get the icons back from the weather applet, they are missing? Please and Thank You! :)04:38

lovrewhat is that program for ubuntu that creates thumbnails?04:39
flanderslosha, also, Brasero puts the FIRST 60 seconds as the LAST track, but the rest are in proper order. This seems like a bug that was overlooked.04:39

Tartarosthe gFTP application tells me "The protocol 'FTP' is currently not supported." how wrong is that?!04:41
mcurranI don't know what that means.  Try seeing if you have anything in /etc/X11/xorg.conf now, and if not, run the program for display settings and add a monitor, vesa driver, and resolution, restart, replace "vesa" with "nvidia" and the resolutions should stay.04:41

noirHey guys. I've got a question about Brasero. Anyone know what kind of image files it produces with the "CD copy" option? It makes 2 files: a small .toc file and a large image file with no extension. Mounting it (at least as ISO9660) doesn't seem to work...05:25
Jordan_UBableOn: Why are you using lilo?05:25
noirBableOn: maybe check to see if there's a file called "lilo.conf~"?05:26
Jordan_UBableOn: Ubuntu is never supposed to delete configuration files that have been edited by the user, so it should either still be there or you should be able to generate an identical config file by re-installing lilo ( But I'm still curious why you would do such a thing :)05:27

Billiardnoir: whats anoying?05:35
noirBilliard: I can't tell what kind of filesystem it used to make the image. It makes a small .toc file and a large disk image with no extension. "file" command just returns "data" on it05:36
noirBilliard: and Googling around got me nowhere. Tried mounting it as a .bin and an ISO966005:36

Geistanonmcurran, as well as being very involved06:13
Jordan_Umcurran: But if you weren't planning on doing that already you should know that there are pre-built kernels http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/06:14
khensthothjennie: What do you mean by "so that ubuntu can get back"?06:14
mcurranWell I'm compiling by scractch like "sudo CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=1 AUTOBUILD=1 NOEXTRAS=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-debs"06:14
jennieKhensthoth after reinstalling the grub will mess up and then i wont get menu06:14
infidel2Jordan_U -rwsr-xr-x06:15
Jordan_Umcurran: Why?06:15
mcurranDoesn't that make it more efficient.06:15
Jordan_Uinfidel2: The full line ( the user is important )06:15
infidel2root root06:15
infidel2Jordan_U sudo isnt what's telling me this, a program is06:16
Jordan_Uinfidel2: What program?06:16
infidel2strace06:16
Geistanonmcurran~ having a smaller kernel will take time off of your boot but little else06:16
Jordan_Uinfidel2: You need to put strace after sudo ( you can't strace setuid binaries )06:17
infidel2oh06:17
khensthothjennie: If you were to reinstall WinXP in your 80GB SATA, then proceed to reinstall grub, shouldn't grub automatically detect the operating systems you have?06:17
mcurranGeistanon:  But does compiling this way from the linux-image package optimize the kernel at all, or do you still get all the needles modules and everything else that doesn't pertain to the hardware/configuration06:18
Jordan_Umcurran: Doesn't optimize it at all06:18
mcurranWell, there should be a way to trim the kernel somehow...06:18

_carloshello06:19
mcurranThis is the only way I know how to compile, because I used to do it this way when I had to appy a patch to my old laptop.06:20
Jordan_Umcurran: Unfortunately there is no way to automatically build a kernel for your specific hardware ( that I know of at least ). You need to figure out exactly what hardware you have and use make menuconfig to manually choose what to include06:20
_carlosthat's right..06:20
_carlosmake menuconfig is your friend06:20
noirBilliard, Geistanon: Thanks very much for your help! Finally figured it out. Needed to use bin2iso to convert the .toc file to .cue, and then bchunk to convert the .bin and .cue directly to WAVs with the "-w" switch06:21

pipboygood looking out06:23
Geistanonpipboy, in firefox go to about:plugins06:23
pipboyJordan, i installed it when prompted in firefox, installed the adobe flash version (1st selection) and on another not im using X6406:24
Geistanonpipboy, What has the mime type "application/x-shockwave-flash"06:24
Geistanonpipboy~ within the about:plugins page06:24
pipboygive me a sec06:25
pipboygeistanon, application/x-shockwave-flash Shockwave Flash swf Yes06:25
Geistanonpipboy~ is there only the 1?06:26
sontekWhen I ssh into my server it takes a good 2 minutes before it brings up the login prompt06:26
Geistanonpipboy~ most times that flash fails in ubu it is because of conflicting plugins06:26
sontekit doesn't take that long when I'm using putty from windows on the same computer06:26
sontekanything I can check in my ubuntu config?06:26
Jordan_Usontek: Is your server listening on port 22 and accessable via the internet?06:26
loshasontek: ssh -v to get some debugging output....06:26
pipboyGeistanon, i only see that as application /x shockwave-flash06:27
brianhermananybody here try chrome os?06:28
Geistanonpipboy~ on http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/ , does the flash player check animate?06:28
Hilikusif i chmod i file, while rsync copy it next time or not?06:28
Geistanonbrianherman~ it is not out yet06:28
brianhermangeistanon: im building it right now http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/07/introducing-google-chrome-os.html06:28
Jordan_UGeistanon: The source is06:28
pipboyGeistanon, it offered for me to install missing plugins, but i do see the check animation yes...06:28
Billiardnoir: you could try one of the cd ripping tools you said you have used before using your file as the cd device06:29
brianhermani wish they had a live cd for chrome os06:29
Jordan_Unoir: Desparate enough to try my crazy idea yet? :)06:29
noirBilliard: I can try that I suppose...06:29
noirJordan_U: I definitely am. Hit me06:29
Geistanonbrianherman, Jordan_U~ well gosh darn that was quick06:30
Geistanonpipboy~ then flash is actually operable. you said youtube fails?06:30
Jordan_Unoir: sudo losetup -r /dev/loop0 /path/to/file.bin06:31
loshaHilikus: it depends on the rsync flags you use, and I can't recall if chmod changes the modified time of the file. You can always try rsync with the --dry-run flag to see it *would* do without it actually doing anything...06:31
pipboyGeistanon, like when i try to click buttons and what not, youtube, stickam, sometimes myspace music player, and sometimes lastfm. (mostly everything flash related methinks)06:31
Jordan_Unoir: Then tell a cd ripping app that your cdrom drive is /dev/loop006:31
vin-question06:31
Geistanonpipboy~ how exactly does it fail?06:32
noirJordan_U: oooh I like it06:32

Geistanonpipboy~ Well that's odd indeed.06:36
Geistanonpipboy~ I actually have no idea how to help you at this point.06:36
pipboyGeistanon, yeah... its okay, im thinking maybe if i can uninstall the flash plugin i currently have and install the open source ones maybe that would have a different outcome?06:37
Geistanonpipboy~ I suggest trying alternative flash plugins such as gnash, and make sure to disable ones which you arent testing currently via  tools -> addons -> plugins06:37
noirJordan_U: Tried abcde (nice CLI tool). It says "CD could not be read. Perhaps there's no CD in the drive?"06:37
Geistanonactually pipboy06:38
GeistanonA simple google search brought up this page ( http://helpforlinux.blogspot.com/2009/11/i-cannot-click-on-flash-in-ubuntu.html )06:38

pipboybrianherman, yeah, those are the only ones i like, Fallout oblivion with guns edition wasnt any good imo06:40
brianhermani should get 1 and 206:40
brianhermanmaybe after xmas i get money06:40
pipboygeistanon, thanks a bunch, what is a good way to go about installing these again?06:40
pipboyBrianherman, or you could just torrent them? need a link? ill gladly give it to you06:41
Geistanonpipboy~ given the page's contents i dont think you need to try alternate plugins yet06:41
noirJordan_U, Billiard, Geistanon: Thanks for all your help guys, but I think I'll delete these useless images and wait till next week to rip these CDs proper. It's a shame, and I came close with the bin2iso/bchunk wav output combo (you can hear the music faintly under lots of static), so I'd call that a partial victory :) Cheers06:41
pipboyGeistanon, so what should i do then?06:41
Geistanonpipboy~ read the page i sent you06:41
Jordan_Unoir: Try audacity as a last ditch effort before you give up06:42
Geistanonpipboy~ a comment someways down will help06:42

loshanoir: cdparanoia has always worked well for me ripping audio cds06:42
noirJordan_U: use audacity how?06:42
noirlosha: that's why I use rubyrip. It's a great frontend to cdparanoia06:42
pipboyGeistanon, substituting the directory? i have no idea how to do that, as i've said i don't comprehend how installing works, i'm unfortunately a windows guy but im trying to learn06:42

Geistanonpipboy~ try     sudo gedit /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/i386/linux/npviewer     instead06:45
noirJordan_U: if I import it using Import > Raw Data and the default options, I get the same result as the WAV files: very loud digital-sounding static with the music faint in the background06:46
noirJordan_U: so something along the way here must be close but not quite right06:46
pipboyGeistanon, nothing06:46
Jordan_Unoir: Did you try importing as audio rather than "raw data"?06:47
noirJordan_U: yes, nothing happens if I do that. Says "Audacity did not recognize the type of the file. If it is uncompressed, try importing it using 'Import Raw.'"06:47

loshanoir: sigh. Brasero...06:50
Geistanonnoir, losha, it was a bin06:50
noirlosha: I know. If I had had net access at the time I'd have downloaded a real ripping tool, but I didn't. Now I wish I had booted into Windows and ripped them as Windows Media Lossless. At least then I could decompress the songs to WAV and then re-encode them with FLAC easily enough06:51

jesuslolololit is faster to transfer files07:07
jesuslolololon windows07:07
kostkonyou can get*07:08
jesuslolololthough07:08
`Immortal`ok i guess thats my best bet07:08
Flannel`Immortal`: But /join #ubuntu-in and see if there's someone in your area who might be able to give you an alternate CD07:08
Jordan_Ugreezmunkey: Are you sure checked it against the right md5?07:08
`Immortal`ok , thanks for all the help guys07:08
`Immortal`Flannel: & kostkon really appreciate it07:08
hustonimmortal it doesn't take much. just update from an alternate install cd/dvd07:08
Jordan_U`Immortal`: DVD if possible since all of the other apps you have installed will need to be upgraded too ( the DVD includes main )07:09
greezmunkeyJordan_U, like I said, I want all the way down that road. I understand how it works, let's say. I think the issue is that dd is a bit finniky when reading the data into md5sum.07:09
smokthis is the end07:10
Jordan_Ugreezmunkey: You don't need dd, just run md5sum on the device directly07:10
greezmunkeyJordan_U, I am on a laptop, and was bouncing all over compiz at the time. Direct to md5sum, like md5sum /edv/cdrom, been there...07:10
loshagreezmunkey: I've never found it so. I think you may have hardware issues (flaky reader/disk). On a properly burned disk, I expect to be able to get the correct md5sum no matter how many times I check it..07:11
hustonso any1 know how to change appearance of login screen?07:11
jesuslolololrawr07:11
Jordan_U`Immortal`: And you should really check to see if you can get it from your ISP for free ( their biggest cost is often paying other ISPs they route traffic to / from so they really want things to stay within their network )07:11

DrIshaiMDok, is there a new key combination to kill X11? Ctrl-alt-backspace doesn't seem to work anymore08:17
ActionParsnip*guests08:17
poyntzpowertool08: my problem is more the fact that I can't transfer flac files to my iPod (through research I've learned that iPod's don't except flac files). If I want to transfer files over, I need some sort of transcoder :/08:17
ActionParsnipDrIshaiMD: alt + k + printscreen08:17
greezmunkeyActionParsnip, could be. This desktop was installed onto a WinXP install, it's a wubi thing.08:17
drink_stiactionparsnip: it says something about the kernel not being correct. and my system is an amd 6408:17
powertool08poyntz: I'd look into mencoder08:17

ActionParsnipdrink_sti: sounds like a bad disk to me, did you run the CD verifier?08:18
drink_stii am using a virtual disk08:18
TeamColtraMy machine fails to boot (kernal panic) and I am trying to fix it... I have put the alt install disk in to do the fix mode... but once I drop into shell... I am lost at what I should do08:18
TeamColtraI tried the FSCK but there seems to be no /dev/discs option08:18
timewriteranyone uses 9.10 ?08:18
poyntzpowertool08: I wouldn't have a clue how to use that (it runs through bash, yeah?). also does it allow me to transcode multiple files at once?08:19
apersontimewriter, give this is the ubuntu support channel, it's safe to assume ues08:19
DrIshaiMDhmph im on a laptop, that doesn't appear to work08:19
apersonyes*08:19
hassanakevazirpoyntz, take a look at rockbox, if your ipod is supported, it can playback anything, IIRC also flac08:19
timewriteraperson , thanks , should i upgrade from LTS ?08:19
ActionParsnipdrink_sti: then I recommend you MD5 test the ISO, seems your CPU doesnt support virtualisation with 64bit guests so you will need to check that (you may have to enable an option in your BIOS) or you will have to run 32bit guests08:19
poyntzhassanakevazir: its an iPod shuffle, if that means anything08:19
powertool08poyntz: Yes its command line, but may have a gui frontend available, and I'm sure its not too difficult if you find a good guide with examples on google.08:19
=== switchgirl is now known as wonder_woman
apersontimewriter, personally, I did a clean install and restored my backups08:19
timewriteri mean , install the new version08:20
timewriterclean install ofc08:20
ActionParsnipdrink_sti: not all 64bit CPUs will allow 64bit guest virtualisation08:20
CppIsWeirdi just plugged in an sata card and i dont see the drives connected to it at all, not even in dmesg. how do i see if the card is being picked up?08:20
poyntzpowertool08: just it's going to take me a while to transcode individual files one at a time :P08:20
greezmunkeyActionParsnip, I see that you are getting slammed right now, but during the install does it scann hardware, and offer appropriate drivers, settings, etc. OR, should I plan to make menuconfig after I'm done?08:20
drink_stii am using sun virtualbox. does that have anything to do with it?08:20
powertool08poyntz: So start multiple instances?08:20
poyntzpowertool08: especially say if there's about 4 GB of media08:20
greezmunkeys/scann/scan08:20
ActionParsnipgreezmunkey: most is detected for you, you may need extra boot options, or to add modules in the LiveCD to get things rolling08:21
hassanakevazirpoyntz, ah, no then, it won't be able to playback flac08:21
apersontimewriter, I like 9.10 if that counts for anything08:21
timewriterthanks08:21
powertool08poyntz: GNU/screen would be nice for checking in on them without leaving a bunch of windows open.08:21
timewriterim gonna grab it then08:21
poyntzpowertool08: then the cpu would unsafely be randomly allocating process time, no? what if the program isn't designed to handle these random shuffles. especially with so much processing power going toward transcoding such a high number of files?08:22
ActionParsnipgreezmunkey: but you can use wubi if you like. It does run. I personally dislike the idea so avoid it08:22
greezmunkeyActionParsnip, I think it will be fine, I have another HDD to do a dry run on for this laptop, the worst that'll happen is I'll have to put this HDD back in!08:22
TeamColtraLet me ask this way... is there a way to just force a FSCK of the entire system?08:22
DrIshaiMDActionParsnip, alt+k+printscrn doesnt work, just asks me to cave screenshot08:22
powertool08poyntz: I dunno, I don't transcode files so I couldn't say for sure.08:22
poyntzpowertool08: no worries. thanks anyhow. i'll keep it on my mind08:23
=== wonder_woman is now known as switchgirl
ActionParsnipDrIshaiMD: press the printscreen last08:23
greezmunkeyActionParsnip, I agree, I plan to dump it and reformat/reinstall I just wanted to make it as easy as possible. I have up to date aptoncd's burned and tested, and backed up my home dir as well.08:23
DrIshaiMDaction, I did!08:23
ActionParsnipgreezmunkey: nice, if you make a seperate partition for home you will have fewer isses with reinstall08:23
greezmunkeyActionParsnip, I absolutely agree, and plan to do so!08:24
ActionParsnipDrIshaiMD: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-enabledisable-ctrlaltbackspace-in-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html08:24

=== switchgirl is now known as guest1988
DrIshaiMDActionParsnip, thanks!08:25
poyntzi'm amazed so many apps seem to be available for KDE but not gnome... what's with that?08:25
powertool08poyntz: KDE > gnome :D08:26
DrIshaiMDooooh looks like fglrx is a no go08:26
DrIshaiMDthats a bummer08:26
CppIsWeirdi just plugged in an sata card and i dont see the drives connected to it at all, not even in dmesg. how do i see if the card is being picked up?08:26
poyntzpowertool08: so why are you using xfce and gnome then? :P08:26
powertool08poyntz: I don't use gnome. I use xfce because I don't like KDE4 and 3.5 is outdated now.08:27
ActionParsnipCppIsWeird: sudo fdisk -l     will show you the drives and partitions08:27
oddhyenai don't like kde08:27
oddhyenait's too konfusing08:27
greezmunkeylaggg08:27
poyntzpowertool08: ahh k. so you prefer both xfce and kde to gnome?08:27
CppIsWeirdpoyntz, thats how i know i don't see the drives. ;)08:27
DrIshaiMDok all thanks for your help08:28
ActionParsnipCppIsWeird: if you dont see any, run:   dmesg | less      to see whats detected at bootup, you may need to run: lspci    to see what the card is, you may need extra packages or even compile a kernel module for the card to work08:28
TeamColtraOkay I tried rebooting it again... the first error is /bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries /lib/libc.so.6: invalid ELF header ten Failure: apArmor profiles filaed to load then /sbin/init: error while loading shared libraries: /lib/libpthread.so0: invalid ELF header then goes into Kernal Panic08:28
poyntzCppIsWeird: you'll have to explain that one to me08:28
powertool08poyntz: Yes, although I may start to like gnome more since I don't like KDE4. I also have used LXDE and Enlightenment. XFCE is the best blend though.08:28
powertool08poyntz: I don't like all the bloat that comes with KDE/gnome, yet I usually still end up with the libraries due to a few favorite programs which require them.08:29
poyntzpowertool08: xubuntu I'm guessing? I've never tried xubuntu, but DreamLinux is nice. I've stopped using it temporarily because I have to issue the command startx every time I want to go from the console to the GUI :/08:29
poyntzpowertool08: Amarok seems like an awesome player. Couldn't go back to Mplayer now I'm enjoying it so much :P08:30
powertool08poyntz: I'm actually on Sidux now, its based on Debian Sid.08:30
ActionParsnippoyntz: you can install xubuntu-desktop    or xfce4   and you will get the equivelant of xubuntu08:30
=== guest1988 is now known as switchgirl
poyntzActionParsnip: same with KDE?08:30
poyntzActionParsnip: I don't see the point tho, because I've already got once xfce OS08:31
CppIsWeirdActionParsnip: i don't even see the card in lspci, does this mean its dead or something?08:31
powertool08poyntz: I use mpd as my music player, and ncmpc as the client front end. I think sonata is a gui front end for it.08:31
poyntzActionParsnip: and I like gnome :P08:31
ActionParsnippoyntz: not sure on the base kde package but you can install kubuntu-desktop and it will be the same08:31
dryghuzzah for gnome08:31
ActionParsnipCppIsWeird: read    dmesg | less    through, see what it says08:31
Trezkerthe only thing I don't like about gnome is the memory leaking in gnome-panel08:31
ActionParsnippoyntz: i like LXDE08:31
poyntzActionParsnip: I'm a little lost. If it's that easy, why is Kubuntu Karmic Koala not out yet?08:31
ActionParsnippoyntz: it is: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/9.10-release08:32
poyntzlol. whoops :P08:32
powertool08poyntz: The internets are offended by its initials :P08:32
ActionParsnippoyntz: i use ulite, then throw lxde on it. Works great08:33
powertool08ActionParsnip: What is ulite?08:33
ActionParsnippowertool08: installs a very minimal system, check it out08:33
karbowhat the f is up with all these file transfers coming from the ubuntu channels lately?08:33
manituSultansElephant, ??????08:33
Trezkerkarbo, script kiddies08:33
poyntzActionParsnip powertool08 : I'm guessing these players have iPod support, allow playlists, have nice GUI front ends, do the prev/next track, pause, stop, etc.08:33
powertool08ActionParsnip: Is it an Ubuntu specific thing?08:34
ActionParsnippoyntz: no idea, ipods are garbage08:34
oddhyenamanitu, did you get something from SultansElephant too?08:34
* powertool08 Doesn't have an ipod08:34
karbowell can someone gimme their address so I can go and become their new daddy?08:34
ActionParsnippowertool08: its an ubuntu based thing08:34

oddhyenaubuntujenkins, what?08:35
poyntzActionParsnip: but yeh, I try to pass on Mac's and their proprietory lock-ins08:35
ActionParsnippoyntz: theres gtkpod, bansee and amarok which support ipod. I'm sure others will too.08:35
ActionParsnip!ipod | poyntz08:35
ubottupoyntz: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod08:35
powertool08ActionParsnip: I love archlinux's net install. It gives you a minimal install that is completely up to date because it grabs all the files from repo's instead of the cd. Is it similar to that?08:35
nikrepowertool08, this is the error after I remove /tmp/X.. lock file. http://pastebin.com/m655be82808:35
manituoddhyena, dcc chat08:35
poyntzActionParsnip: I'm using Amarok08:35
poyntzActionParsnip: I didn't like gtkpod08:35
ActionParsnippoyntz: should do it for you08:35
ubuntujenkinsthe thing from sultanselephant didn't except it though08:35
poyntzActionParsnip: the only annoying thing about it is that it doesn't transcode. actually there's more wrong with it than that, but that's a start08:36
poyntzActionParsnip: and I have flac files which wont play on iPod08:36
ActionParsnippowertool08: pretty much, you install ulite from CD, then they have provided a script to set things up nice, you can then install whatever desktop you like, I use LXDE because its small08:36
poyntzActionParsnip: what's kubuntu weight wise?08:37
lightpriestActionParsnip: you should get extra "ubuntu stars", I always see you here - helping ppl ;)08:37
powertool08ActionParsnip: Sounds great, I'll have to remember it next time I install Ubuntu.08:37
poyntzActionParsnip: sorry, i mean kubuntu-desktop08:37
agusjhow to configure joystick08:37
ActionParsnippoyntz: you have a device which is made to primarilty only talk to itunes which only runs on windows or mac so you are pretty screwed08:37

kworkpoyntz,  my friend has it, its working nothing else i know to say about it08:39
lightpriestnmudgal: you're trying to "install update"08:39
nmudgallightpriest: yeah i am trying to do that08:39
lightpriestnmudgal: you're trying to "install update", and as apt-get says... there's no such package. you should "sudo apt-get update"08:40
poyntzkwork: see that could mean that it plays mp3... lol. i'll try to see what i can do with apple's crappy ipod firmware :P08:40
kworkpoyntz,  yeah it plays mp3, not sure about anything else :P08:40
lightpriestnmudgal: update and install are both actions, and the first parameter of apt-get is an action08:40
handjobI NEED SOME HELP. I've edited /etc/group and added another user to "admin" it didn't worked but the worst part is that the old user lost ther priviliges of sudo and as far as i remeber the rood is turned off by default. Am i fucked for good ?08:40

userfriendlybackup... what is this backup you speak of...08:41
SultansElephantwhat's so hard about doing a full reinstall08:41
kworkpoyntz, go for flux of xfce if you want lightweight08:41
poyntzActionParsnip: when it starts to screw up I might just do that ;)08:41
kworkflux or xfce08:41
powertool08handjob: try 'sudo su -' it may give you a root shell.08:41
ActionParsnipuserfriendly: the backup you made, if the file is important yuo will have made a backup08:41
lightpriesthandjob: if you used gedit to edit the file, gedit keeps a "filename"~ backup file after you save08:41

poyntzActionParsnip: of course, providing that I no longer have warranty08:41
userfriendlypoint taken08:41
SultansElephantCalling KDE or GNOME 'bloated' is just elitist nerdiness unless you're still clutching on to some ancient pc08:41
lstarneshandjob: sudo -i is preferred over sudo su -08:41

CyberJack77I recently installed 9.10 and now 2 of my harddisks are giving "exception Emask frozen" and "hard resetting link" errors/warnings. Does anybody know how to solve this? I never got this messages under 8.10. dmesg output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/323125/08:42
nmudgallightpriest: done man i just forget that !!08:42
lightpriesthandjob: if you didn't set a root password (and you are not in the sudoers file) you have to boot as single user (or use a liveCD)08:43
* poyntz thinks that everyone should be aware that linux is never forward compatible LOL08:43
handjoblightpriest, OF course! Thank You kind Sir!08:43
blacksun7anyone very familiar with bash scripting here that could help me out with a renaming script?08:43
powertool08poyntz: Sure it is, just only in the areas in which linux developers are interested.08:43
poyntz...maybe partially forward compatible. and by that, I mean things will break08:43
lightpriesthandjob: either the sudoers file, admin group, something in the middle got screwed. you won't be able to login as root from a normal user if you don't have a root password08:44
ActionParsnipblacksun7: i'd ask in #bash08:44
cprakashI am getting an 'Uncorrectable data error or media is right protected' for 6 blocks on the hard disk when running dell diagnostics08:44

cprakashDoes this mean I have to replace the hard disk as it is corrput ?08:44
poyntzpowertool08: you're probably right. but I've lost the desktop a few times, due to code incompatibilities08:44
handjoblightpriest, Ah btw any idea why this occured when i added user to admin group using vim (firstuser:nextuser)?08:44
cprakashIs it possible to fix it with some cammand on ubuntu ?08:44
poyntzActionParsnip: not much bought. Running pretty much all off open source software08:44
cprakashI ran fsck at boot time as well as chkdsk of windows at boot08:44
ActionParsnipcprakash: boot to live CD and fsck the disk08:44
poyntzActionParsnip: that's aside from games.08:45
ActionParsnippoyntz: some games run amazingly08:45

cprakashthanks ActionParsnip08:45
b0nnhrm, I'm having wifi problems, anyone point me in the right direction for troubleshooting?08:46
poyntzActionParsnip: now that is something I'd love to see. I'd also like to see more gnome apps and less wine ones08:46
lightpriesthandjob: in /etc/group file, : is an option delimiter and "," is a list delimiter. i.e. you should have done admin:XX:XX:user1,user208:46
poyntzActionParsnip: for instance, I have to use wine to highlight in PDF files08:46
handjoblightpriest, ah thank You again.08:46
ActionParsnippoyntz: as an example: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Doom308:46
ActionParsnippoyntz: you should research before ranting08:46
lightpriesthandjob: usually in linux configuration files a comma is a list delimiter08:47
powertool08poyntz: Sauerbraten is another fps linux game.08:47

anarcapHI all. Question about video playback on VLC, SMPlayer, etc. I have a DVD of the movie Cars and opened it up in a few movie players on Ubuntu 9.10 and they all start up in Full Screen (standard 4:3) and not widescreen. I know that the DVD is widescreen, and I can't figure out how to get it to play in widescreen08:52
Hans_Henrikfirst time this happens, i opened a shell on my server, and it spammed "bash: /dev/null: Permission denied"  a few sec before i could write anything :s08:52
poyntzActionParsnip: provided they can give contributors the info they need to fix it08:52
powertool08poyntz: Not necessarily, file what you know, they ask for more info, then you give them what they ask for.08:52
ActionParsnippoyntz: no, just say when something is wrong and someone more knowledgable will ask you to generate info from your system to beef up the info08:52
poyntzActionParsnip powertool08 : provided they point me in the right direction. Often I find once a bug report gets marked as something different, people stop looking at it08:53
ActionParsnippoyntz: like on launchpad questions, some people log questions with so little information that its hard to know what they are asking, so you ask them to clarify08:53
ardchoillePerhaps the bugs convo can be moved to #ubuntu-bugs?08:53
joveactionparsip: it failed, do you have any idea ?  wine-dev: Depends: wine (= 0.9.35~winehq0~ubuntu~7.04-1) but it is not going to be installed08:53

poyntzyou'd be surprised. a lot of the time they just say "thread close due to insufficient information"08:53
ActionParsnipjove: you need to have wine 0.9.35 installed to install the dev package08:54
poyntzey ActionParsnip, is kubuntu-desktop the full kubuntu package?08:54
ActionParsnippoyntz: then keep it alive asking "what information do you need of me" etc08:55

lengendjove, what country are you from?08:55
poyntzActionParsnip: that's probably a stupid question08:55

poyntzSultansElephant: not if you have to install from source, because the KDE app/script isn't in the repos08:57
anarcap HI all. Question about video playback on VLC, SMPlayer, MPlayer etc. I have a DVD of the movie Cars and opened it up in a few movie players on Ubuntu 9.10 and they all start up in Full Screen (standard 4:3) and not widescreen. I know that the DVD is widescreen, and I can't figure out how to get it to play in widescreen08:57

anarcappowertool08 - Yes, I know about the aspect ration option. However, that only the changes the output and will only force the 4:3 into 16:9 thus streching out the video. On most discs there are 2 versions of the movie, a 4:3 version and a 16:9 versions. For some reason my movie players are only playing the 4:3 version and I have no option to change it.09:03

Tartarosashiswin: of course you can use ubuntu. You didn't say what you need to do so far09:27

ailleantsianhassanakevazir: NVIDIA GeForce Go 660009:27

Parsidoes 64-bit run faster?09:33
ActionParsnipsuigeneris: as well as any gnash and swfdec packages too09:33
ActionParsnipParsi: in some situations yes, as just a desktop, no09:33
alankilaParsi: depends on application. 64-bit systems have a nasty tendency to allocate 8 bytes per pointer, which can be a real memory drain.09:33
ParsiActionParsnip: what about converting video files ?09:34
powertool08n2diy: I don't know for sure if you can reformat home on a live system, I'd think you'd have to be at init 3 (single user mode) at least, but best to do it from a live cd.09:34

Antagonistbtw, are there problem nvidia linux drivers for GTX260?  Even if its crappy binary ones10:17
Antagonist*proper10:17
JediMasterAntagonist, I'm using GTX260 in ubuntu without any problems using the nvidia binary drivers10:17
AntagonistJediMaster: Thanks10:18
ActionParsnipAntagonist: you can add the nvidia dev repo and use the 190 driver10:18
ActionParsnipAntagonist: https://launchpad.net/~nvidia-vdpau/+archive/ppa10:18
mesaGLActionParsnip: i know it's not out yet. what i'm asking is : will it be usable when it does come out ?10:19
inivexhey, that's cool, i didn't know nvidia had a repo10:19

JediMasterI've got several virtual Ubuntu servers running on Xen hypervisor in a datacenter in the UK, yesterday the entire DC was DDOS in a huge attack and it took everything down for 2.5 hours. I'm trying to figure out how to fail over to a different data center. The only thing I can think of so far is to clone the site/database on to another machine in a different DC, and use it as secondary DNS, then check the site is up with scripts and cha10:22
JediMasternge the DNS to point to the second DC should it go down (with low TTL). Any better ideas?10:22
JediMasterdon't want to have a single point of failure, so something like a reverse proxy is out of the question as it is the single point.10:24
ActionParsnipJediMaster: you'd need a gateway to failover between the 2 systems10:24
om26eri cannot set custom resolution in ubuntu9.10 using nvidia and the driver version 18510:24
JediMasterActionParsnip, single point of failure?10:24
kostkonGarbin, hmm. what jvm do u use?10:24
ActionParsnipJediMaster: could have 2, there will have to be a single point at some point, the IP of the whole thing10:24
Garbinkostkon, java-6-sum10:25
kostkonGarbin, aha ok10:25
JediMasterActionParsnip, at least with my DNS based idea the only problem is a small downtime with the DNS propagation with the low TTL10:25
ActionParsnipJediMaster: i guess10:25
laurA little help please?  I want to install windows on partition where i have installed Ubuntu but the windows tell me the partition is not for windows... and partiton is NTFS what should i do ?10:26
ActionParsnipom26er: if you run nvidia-settings   are their resolutions listed?10:26
JediMasterhow do big companies get past this issue, Google  for instance must be attacked all the time but they transparently fail over to different networks without issue (I'm sure mega$$$ helps)10:26

(i've read that xubuntu is quicker than ubuntu but actually not THAT much quicker, not as much as they make out anyway)11:05

ricreekostkon:  no change after a reboot11:06
kostkonWill123456, i'm sure the slowness it flash related11:06
ActionParsnipWill123456: xubuntu will be more responsive but i've ran a full kde system on a similar rig11:06
AndorinActionParsnip: Flash drive still will not mount.......11:07
X3anyone know about this grub2 error : not foundt/grub: 7:11:07
kostkonricree, you didn't have to reboot. but anyway, run again the gst properties app and change the default output from pulse to alsa11:07
simplexioohnoes: check msg11:07
* PhantomLink hugs ActionParsnip - hopefully work will be over soon so you can get back into the wonderful world of linux11:07
X3theres no documentation on that11:07
ricreekostkon:  tried that as well already11:07
kostkonricree, same?11:07
PhantomLink;)11:08
ricreekostkon:  yeah11:08
ActionParsnipAndorin: thats the sort of command you need, if its moaing about type then rerun the fdisk command, if its ntfs formatted then add: -t ntfs-3g     if its FAT based then use: -t vfat11:08
PhantomLinkanywho...i'll be in ot11:08
kostkonricree, could you check that you have the gstreamer-pulseaudio-something package?11:08
mahajuim new to linux11:08
kostkon!info gstreamer-pulseaudio11:08
ubottuPackage gstreamer-pulseaudio does not exist in karmic11:08
mahajui need to learn how to use it11:08
ActionParsnipPhantomLink: both are fine for me, i can do what i do in either OS. I only web browse and chat so I use linux as its free11:08
kostkon:?11:08
mahajucould any one please help me out?11:08
ricree!info gstreamer0.10-pusleaudio11:09
ubottuPackage gstreamer0.10-pusleaudio does not exist in karmic11:09
Will123456kostkon: yeah, it is. adblock plus for FF improves things greatly.11:09
ricreeodd, showing up in synaptic11:09
ActionParsnipAndorin: so the command would be: sudo mount /dev/partition_name -t vfat /media/usb -o uid=100011:09
ricreekostkon:  but yeah, it's installed11:09
kostkonWill123456, indeed11:09
carvermMahaju - you might start here: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/getting-started.html11:09
ActionParsnipAndorin: for example, you'll need to change the partition_name and type if its not vfat11:09
Will123456ActionParsnip: thanks, i guess i may as well stick with ubuntu then (it's for my mum and she's more familiar with gnome) :)11:10
AndorinActionParsnip: Right, right... trying it now.11:10
kostkonricree, eh, which device is selected in gst properties in default output11:10
ricreekostkon:  the odd thing is, when I hit the test in gstreamer properties and OSS is selected, it sounds just like my problem.  But both ALSA and PulseAudio work fine11:10
carvermMahaju - sorry, try this link instead https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/newtoubuntu/C/index.html11:10
ricreekostkon:   So it's like it's ignoring the gstreamer-properties and going with OSS anyways11:10
kostkonricree, but your apps still sound choppy11:10
ActionParsnipWill123456: cool, if she likes it then stick with it, user interface familiarity an all11:10
kostkonricree, then, hmm11:11
AndorinActionParsnip: ARGHH! It's still rejecting the command.11:11
kostkonricree, yeah, it could be11:11
ActionParsnipAndorin: you get the idea, just tweak and tweak until its good, there are lots of guides online11:11
X3well thx for no help at all dont have a clew why this channel exists the questions asked mostly here are n00bish when someone asks a real question noone knows sod all11:11
kostkonricree, try this, just to make sure. w811:11

AndorinActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/d67c3c9fc11:12
kostkonricree, eh, do you have anything in .config/totem?11:12
ricreekostkon:  no11:13
ActionParsnipAndorin: ok the partition is /dev/sdf111:13
ricreekostkon: wait, nm.  was in the wrong folder11:13
ricreekostkon: there's a state.ini11:13
kostkonricree, ok. check in .gnome211:14
kostkonricree, do you have a totem_config file?11:14
ActionParsnipAndorin: sudo mount /dev/sdf1 /media/usb -t vfat -o uid=100011:14
kostkonricree, or a totem file11:14
=== froosch_ is now known as froosch
ricreekostkon:  totem's one of the programs that works.  Would it likely make a difference?11:14
kostkonricree, ah, totem works11:14
mahajuCould anybody please helpme?11:14
kostkonricree, tell me again the ones that don't work11:14
chelzmahaju: whatcha need?11:15
ActionParsnipAndorin: this has a vfat guide too: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/mounting-windows-partition-onto-ubuntu-linux/11:15
ricreekostkon: rhythmbox and banshee are the only two I can confirm at the moment. Also, banshee wasn't installed until the issues cropped up with rhythmbox, so I don't see it being a config issue with that program11:15
kostkonricree, ok11:16
ricreekostkon:  My guess is that I've screwed up the config for gstreamer somehow, but I'm not sure how11:16
kostkonricree, both are gstreamer apps, yeah11:16
AndorinActionParsnip: Now take a look at this http://pastebin.com/d7eb3f94911:16
kostkonricree, but totem is a gst app too11:16
kostkonricree, hmm11:16
carvermThe greeter application is crashing in my Jaunty installation after I allowed Update Manager to update packages recently. I've done lots of web searching to troubleshoot, but gnome desktop is hosed. Can anyone assist? : )11:17
ActionParsnipAndorin: ok has this stick been in a windows sstem before putting it in your linux system?11:17
kostkonricree, eh, what device is selected in gst properties, in the default output section11:17
ricreekostkon:  like I said before,  it's almost like those apps are ignoring the settings from gstreamer-properties.  I'm not sure what would cause that11:17
ricreekostkon: one sec11:17
kostkonricree, there should be a drop down below the plugin one11:18
ricreekostkon: default at the moment11:18
AndorinActionParsnip: Yes, but not for a while now. Um, if it helps, I was experimenting with TrueCrypt in order to get the hang of it using this flash drive... so that might have something to do with why I can't mount it?11:18
kostkonricree, aha. what other options are availablwe to selet?11:18
ricreekostkon: STAC92xx Analog and STAC92xx Digital are the other options11:18
ActionParsnipAndorin: did you just rip the device out of the system or did you use the saftely remove hardware function in windows?11:18
ricreekostkon:  and NVIDIA HDMI11:18
kostkonricree, hmm. then, select the analog one11:18
AndorinOh my God. >_<11:18
ronald__how to unlock this /var/lib/dpkg/lock??11:19
ActionParsnipAndorin: ?11:19
cookie_hi everybody11:19

cankoycarverm: can you log in from console?11:19
carvermCankoy - yes I can11:19
AndorinActionParsnip: I'm really sorry for wasting your time. This WAS a TrueCrypt thing- if I have the drive formatted the way I do then I have to mount it myself with TrueCrypt. I just got it to work. At least now I know more about mount..... again, sorry for the time waste.11:19
ActionParsnipronald__: its a window on the desktop, like gedit or openoffice11:20

carvermcankoy: I've tried apt-get update and apt-get upgrade. One sec and I'll type error I got when running update11:21
ricreekostkon: no change11:21
AndorinActionParsnip: Yeah, it doesn't seem too difficult in principle... this drive just magically wouldn't mount. Which, for TrueCrypt's purposes, is actually rather nice. Thanks for your help.11:21
ActionParsnipronald__: if synaptic isnt running and you are not installing any packages then you can run this:11:21

IrakirashiaThanks ActionParsnip ;)11:27
